It's 88 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 2: literature by this guy who won the Nobel Prize for Literature. 89 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 2: I don't know how to pronounce his name, orin Pamuk 90 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 2: something like that. Anyway, wrote this book called Snow that 91 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 2: I read several years ago. Every time somebody wins the 92 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 2: Nobel Prize for Literature, I try to read one of 93 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 2: their books, and they're always amazing, I mean just amazing. 94 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 2: But it's about a poet. It returns to Turkey, political 95 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 2: Islam and secular tensions collide. 96 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: Et cetera, et cetera. But it's fantastic. 97 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 2: Fiction very often is better at describing something than any 98 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 2: sort of real book. Gamby right, and this is one 99 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 2: of those great recommendations. Snow By unpronounceable. Yeah, Nobel prize 100 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 2: winning Turkey guy. Did he get me prizes from FIFA 101 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 2: soccer people? So I saw this from our friend Tim Sandfer, 102 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 2: and this. I don't think this argument completely works, but 103 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 2: it's worth mentioning. The argument that we're bombing these drug 104 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 2: boats because they're sending all these drugs to America that 105 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 2: kill tens of thousands of Americans. Alcohol kills on average 106 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 2: over the last several decades, about one hundred thousand people 107 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 2: a year, and we bombining distilleries. That's always been an 108 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 2: interesting thing about how alcohol is grandfathered in as a 109 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 2: drug we accept and are okay with. It's less ridiculous 110 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 2: now that pot is legal practically everywhere. 111 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 3: But when pop is illegal, meeting Massachusetts might become the 112 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 3: first state. 113 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: To go back to Wow. I wondered about that. 114 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 2: So currently I think it's thirty eight states where pot 115 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 2: is legal, which makes it very easy to get anywhere 116 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 2: in the United States, because even if you live in 117 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 2: a state where it's not legal, you probably live next 118 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 2: to a state where it is. 119 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: I was quite amazed my kids. 120 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 2: It became kind of a running joke as we did 121 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 2: a road trip driving all the way to Kansas eighteen 122 00:06:57,800 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 2: hundred miles or something like that. 123 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: How big the whole pot shop thing is. 124 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 2: You drive through some of these small towns and they 125 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 2: have two or three giant dope stores in tiny towns. 126 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 2: You think, are there enough people buying dope to keep 127 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 2: three big shops alive in this town? Apparently there are? 128 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, wow. 129 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 3: Massachusetts is the first, and several others are taking a 130 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 3: serious look at it. 131 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: With the thinking being what. 132 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 3: The positives have not been nearly what was promised, and 133 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 3: the negatives were. 134 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: More than we'd guess they would be. 135 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 3: What were the positive To get into that a little 136 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 3: bit longer or a little bit more later in the hours. 137 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I would love to hear more about that. 138 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 2: That's really interesting. I'd like to know what positives they 139 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 2: were hoping for that didn't materialize. Can I answer another 140 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 2: question you've had this week? 141 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 3: Who is responsible for all these really encouraging consumer spending 142 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 3: numbers of late, when so much of America is saying 143 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 3: I'm terrified and or behind on all their payments, according 144 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 3: to the Wall Street Journal, and you'd think they would know. 145 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 3: Two different consumers are fueling this holiday shopping season, high 146 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 3: end luxury shoppers and deal hunters making everyday spending trade 147 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 3: offs to keep the gifts flowing. 148 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: It's weighted to the high end and the low end. 149 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 2: So the stat has been that the top ten percent 150 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 2: of wag journers are doing half of consumer spending, so 151 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 2: obviously that distorts the numbers quite a bit. And then 152 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 2: you got the people that we're willing to stand in 153 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 2: line on Black Friday to get a eighty dollars blender 154 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 2: or whatever you're opening it. 155 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: That crowd. 156 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I thought this was a pretty good description too. 157 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 3: Even with holiday shopping off to robust start, consumers, especially 158 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 3: those from less affluent households, are pulling back on routine 159 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 3: purchases as they get priority to gifts and holiday meals. 160 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 3: Sales on things that can wait, like haircuts, priceier raisers, 161 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 3: fast casual lunches are slipping, notably. Spending on clothing, toys, 162 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 3: and seasonal items, on the other hand, is strong, so 163 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 3: they're just cutting back in other ways. 164 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 2: So you're long haired parents having not had money for 165 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 2: a haircut. We'll give you something for Christmas. 166 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 3: Right right, they're unshaven, long hair, unfed parents buying you toys. 167 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: God bless them. 168 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 2: Here's a decent place for me to throw in one 169 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 2: of my many screeds about Chinese crap. It's been driving 170 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,199 Speaker 2: me crazy for many, many years now. I don't know 171 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: if there's any turning this around. Basically, my complaint has been, 172 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 2: why don't we all just spend a little more on 173 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 2: a bunch of stuff that's much higher quality, lasts longer 174 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 2: than buying the cheapest Chinese crap out there. Our parents 175 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 2: used to spend more on lots of different items, but 176 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 2: they were much better items, and in the long run 177 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 2: you spent less money and are hunger for Chinese crap. 178 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 2: Here's my latest example. 179 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: Pencils. My kids go through pencils.

You know what I hadn't realized 262 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 2: un till I came across an article about it today, 263 00:13:54,120 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 2: was that high school football they're highlighting southern California. High 264 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 2: school football is now full on the nil money thing, 265 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 2: with boosters paying big money to little kids to come 266 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 2: to their high schools. 267 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 1: Wow to play football. Wow. I know a little bit 268 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, that's interesting. 269 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 3: Well, in this one kid that they highlight, who's now 270 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 3: he's going to be playing in the Big Ten championship 271 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 3: game for Ohio State, a receiver. The story opens with 272 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 3: him tearfully calling his grandmother, begging her to come get 273 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 3: him because his drug addict mother had sold him to 274 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 3: a team ooh in southern California to go play receiver 275 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 3: there unbelievable, speaking of the evils of modern society. A 276 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 3: couple of days ago, Massachusetts voters took a major step 277 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 3: to repeal the legalization of recreational marijuana in the state. 278 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 3: The Coalition for a Healthy Massachusetts submitted more than seventy 279 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 3: four thousand signatures required to put the question on the 280 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 3: twenty twenty six state ballot. Once, the measure will go 281 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 3: to the state legislature for consideration. If they declined to 282 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 3: pass it, organizers must collect more signatures to put it 283 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 3: to a statewide vote next year. But Massachusetts is in 284 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 3: alone and Idaho, where marijuana is currently Italy illegal, a 285 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 3: measure to block for future voter initiatives the legalize the 286 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 3: drug is on the ballot for twenty twenty six. 287 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 2: So what led them to want to do this? What 288 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 2: were they thinking was going to happen when it was 289 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 2: legalized that hasn't occurred, or the reverse? 290 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 3: I guess there are a bunch of unforeseen effects. Number One, 291 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 3: it was believed by a lot of people that the 292 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 3: rate of marijuana use wouldn't change much. It would just 293 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 3: be out in the open and could be regulated and blah. 294 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 3: Blah blah, but freely legal weed and the fact that 295 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 3: it's practically laughable the idea that the cops would talk 296 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 3: to somebody who has marijuana to make sure it's legal 297 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 3: weed or whatever. And in the legalized states, it's just 298 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 3: it's not happening. So lots and lots of more people 299 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 3: are smoking pot. The promised tax revenues have not materialized. 300 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 3: The black market for pot hasn't gone anywhere because the 301 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 3: like in California, it's so taxed and regulated it's legal. 302 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 3: Pot is pretty expensive, and though plenty of people consume it, 303 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 3: a lot of people just keep going to their neighborhood 304 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 3: dealer they've always gone to. 305 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 2: But so back to the conversation of you know, well, 306 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 2: and it's really really bad for kids' brains. Eighty to 307 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 2: one hundred thousand people die from drinking every year. So 308 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 2: is pot worse than drinking? 309 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think that's probably an unanswerable question. 310 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 2: Or drinking just got grandfathered in and it doesn't need 311 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 2: to make sense. 312 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 3: It's just the thing you happen to be out dealing 313 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 3: with important stuff. When we were talking about the drunken 314 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 3: monkey hypothesis and a brand new study that's come out 315 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 3: that shows that chimps in the wild take in one 316 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 3: to two drinks worth of alcohol every day in fermented fruits, 317 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 3: like right after lunch, well sometimes just in the evening 318 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 3: to take the edge off even peeling. But anna's all day. 319 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 3: You got your wife and you just you know how 320 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 3: it goes, peeling bananas old And. 321 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: We can touch on that a little bit later. I 322 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: want to talk about that right when we come back. 323 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 2: I didn't get to get in on this conversation that 324 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 2: is my wheelhouse, Drunken Monkeys, Stay. 325 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: Tuned, Armstrong and Getty. 326 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 2: The whole drugs and alcohol thing is really interesting in 327 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 2: a lot of different ways. So we're kind of all 328 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 2: over the place on this conversation about you know, we're 329 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 2: droning people in boats because they're sending drugs to the 330 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 2: United States and considering them committing acts of war. Well, 331 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 2: at the same time, I got one hundred thousand people 332 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 2: that drink themselves to death every single year, and that's legal, 333 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 2: And we legalized pot and a whole bunch of different states, 334 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 2: and now at least a couple of states are looking 335 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 2: at making it illegal again for a variety of reasons. 336 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: Just pretty interesting. I wonder if that's going to become 337 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: a trend. 338 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 339 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 3: One of the leaders in this trend, he talks about 340 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 3: how in the style of the cigarette companies, especially and 341 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 3: to some extent the alcoholic companies, it's a business that 342 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 3: promotes addiction. Their entire business model is they need more addiction. 343 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 3: I mean, there's unquestionably an addiction, whether psychological or physical, 344 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 3: to marijuana. To just be on displayed. A lot of 345 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 3: people deny that they're wrong, and there you have a 346 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 3: five times greater chance of psychosis developing serious psychotic conditions 347 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 3: if you're a heavy marijuana smoker. And it's funny whenever 348 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 3: we talk about this, we get the one stoner who 349 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,959 Speaker 3: says that, why don't you guys do some research. 350 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 2: That's totally not true. I've been smoking dope for twenty 351 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 2: years and it hasn't affected me. Yeah, Okay, apparently you've 352 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 2: smoked too much dope to understand what five times more 353 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 2: likely means. 354 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 1: So thanks for the note. 355 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 2: Anyway, I've also known a few stoners who had really 356 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 2: sad lives. We talked about out hadn't hurt that many. 357 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 2: I've known a few in my life. You don't do 358 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: anything you sit on the couch as an overweight person 359 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 2: with no friends or romantic interests, watching television, and you 360 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 2: talk about it has had no effect on your life. 361 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: Well, it's possible, but hmmm, sad. 362 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 3: So apparently, when the University of California at Berkeley isn't 363 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 3: busy in doctrinating your kids to despise their country and 364 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,199 Speaker 3: become Marxists, they actually still do some science, and in 365 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:34,919 Speaker 3: this case drunken monkey science. Chimpanzees naturally ingest surprising amounts 366 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 3: of alcohol from ripe fermenting fruit, and careful measurement shows 367 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 3: that their typical fruit diet can equal one to. 368 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: Two human drinks each day. 369 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 3: Now, aside from being just interesting and somewhat amusing on 370 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 3: its face, it supports the idea that alcohol exposure is 371 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 3: not a modern human invention, but an ancient primate habit. 372 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,719 Speaker 3: The work strengthens the drunken monkey hypothesis and opens new 373 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 3: question about how animals use ethanol cues in their environment. 374 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 3: So the equivalent of a human drink, because they're smaller 375 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:10,719 Speaker 3: than us, aren't they one to two? 376 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: Yeah? What's a chimpanzee way? That's forty pounds? I don't know. Oh, Actually, 377 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,959 Speaker 1: the bigger than that. Yeah, I think they are. 378 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 3: Standard drink in the US contains fourteen grams of ethanol 379 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 3: irrespect of the consumer's body size, although in much of 380 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 3: Europe's standards tan grams. 381 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 2: Learn to drink Euros. Do you have any adult drinks 382 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 2: around here? Trying to enjoy myself? 383 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Well, what they don't know is whether chimpanzees 384 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 3: deliberately choose fruits with higher ethanol levels to take the 385 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 3: edge off. Those tend to be riper and richer in 386 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 3: sugar that can for men, so they might just taste better. However, 387 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 3: many of the fruit species they regularly contain measurable ethanol, 388 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 3: indicating that alcohol is routine part of their menu and 389 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 3: probably present in the diets of our human ancestors as well. 390 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 2: A number of texts on the whole. We're not bombing distilleries, 391 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 2: but we are bombing drug traffickers. You know, fentanyl, marijuana 392 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 2: versus booze thing a couple of them being that fentanyl 393 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 2: pretty decent change you keep messing around. Fentanyl's gonna kill you, 394 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 2: very unlikely. That booze is gonna kill most people. 395 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,199 Speaker 3: Right, nobody's ever cracked open a Miller light and died 396 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 3: because Miller put you know, seven thousand times the alcohol 397 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 3: in that can. 398 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 2: There's also the we tried banning booze once and it 399 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: didn't go well. The fact that you just can't is 400 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 2: part of it. Irmagird, I totally forgot. 401 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 3: Today is the anniversary of the twenty first Amendment that 402 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 3: repealed the Was it the twenty first or twenty second? 403 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 3: I can never remember. I'd probably drink too much that 404 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 3: repealed prohibition. Today is the anniversary. 405 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 2: It's the twenty second because I've known a few bars 406 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 2: called the twenty second Amendment. 407 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 3: And liquor store is right, Yeah, that's why, you know, 408 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 3: I clicked in my head. But anyway, Yeah, it was 409 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 3: passed just in time for the holidays, really to the 410 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 3: delight of many, and today is the anniversary, so cheers 411 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 3: to that. 412 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 2: The worst part of that whole thing, of course, being 413 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 2: it's kind of like the way COVID was, the important 414 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 2: and powerful did whatever the hell they wanted. The rules 415 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 2: only applied to you, and that's the way it was 416 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 2: with booze, and that's really really maddening. You know that 417 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 2: politicians are the rich or whoever they were drinking as 418 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 2: much as they ever drank. It's just that you regular 419 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 2: working class people can handle it. 420 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: I can, right, right. 421 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 3: And one other aspect of this that's always bothered me, 422 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 3: and it's funny we haven't talked about this for a 423 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 3: long time, is that if you have a society that 424 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 3: becomes overlegal, overly legalistic, where the only question is is 425 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 3: it illegal or not illegal, lawful or not, as opposed 426 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 3: to is it a good idea or not? Is it 427 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 3: moral or not? Does it make me a better person 428 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 3: or not? I would much rather have things. I would 429 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 3: much rather persuade people than persuade the government to use 430 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 3: its guns to to get people to live better live. 431 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's one of the things I really hated about 432 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 2: when marijuana really caught on as illegalizing, it was just 433 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 2: the non stop, here we go, one hundred percent, this 434 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 2: is fantastic without any you know, smoking pot on a 435 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,360 Speaker 2: regular basis might not be the best thing for your life. 436 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 3: Let's keep that in mind. It's practically guaranteed not to be. 437 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 3: And that says a guy who used to smoke a 438 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 3: substantial amount of pot. Looking back, it didn't do me 439 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 3: any good. I enjoyed it at the time. It made 440 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 3: movies kind of more entertaining, etc. The grass was greener, 441 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 3: blah blah blah. Music sounded really great. But I love 442 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 3: music anyway. I still love music. It's just, yeah, you're 443 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 3: right to act as if it's an unambiguous good and 444 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 3: harmless is just dishonest. 445 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 2: For some reason, I keep thinking of Todd Snyder, one 446 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 2: of my favorite musicians of all time. There's a punchline 447 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 2: to this. Here had some song where he talked about 448 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 2: people like drugs. They're gonna do drugs, and it's not 449 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 2: which drugs, it's which drugs the companies. 450 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: Allow you to do, or blah blah blah. 451 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 2: He had this very cynical attitude about people trying to 452 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 2: regulate drugs and everything, like he's dead now at age 453 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 2: fifty nine, as of a couple of weeks ago, as 454 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 2: a guy who just couldn't ever wrap his head around 455 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 2: drinking and doing drugs, always thought it was hilarious that 456 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 2: anybody would try to make him quit, And now he's 457 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 2: dead as a fifty nine year old. 458 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 3: Because yeah, yeah, yeah, unbelievable. Well that was much more 459 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 3: serious than my drunken chimp characterizations of a few minutes ago. 460 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 2: One thing we talked about do the monkeys drink to excess. 461 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,120 Speaker 2: Do they ever get drunk? That's an interesting thing because 462 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 2: they have what ninety ninety percent of our biology. Do 463 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 2: they ever drink too much and wake up and think, 464 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 2: whoa wow, Well, I gotta gotta take a I gotta 465 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 2: do a dry january or something. 466 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: Thanks for a half. Yeah, right. 467 00:24:55,480 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 3: Actually, it's very very rare according to the scientists, because 468 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 3: because they feed on fruit throughout the day, and it's 469 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 3: the fermented fruit that gets them a buzz on. But 470 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 3: to actually feel intoxicated, the chimp would need to eat 471 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 3: so much fruit that it would be painful. 472 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 2: Well that see, that's interesting. That gets back to that's 473 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 2: kind of like with the weed thing. You know, your 474 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 2: old time hippies will say now that this weed that 475 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 2: you're buying at the store is nothing like what I 476 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 2: was smoking at Woodstock, where you could smoke it all 477 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 2: day long and you know, stay on your feet and 478 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 2: keep your mind. And it's the same with a lot 479 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 2: of booze. Our founding fathers drank all day every day, 480 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 2: beer that just barely had alcohol in it. Similar to monkeys. 481 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 2: To get drunk enough to cause yourself any problems, you did, 482 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 2: you've thrown up to drink that much of the beer 483 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 2: that they had at the time. We should just have 484 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 2: less potent booze. Certainly, there's an argument there, Yeah, in 485 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 2: less potent. 486 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: Pot just kind of keeps a light buzz going. 487 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,439 Speaker 2: That's what you want, well, right, exactly, Yeah, stay on 488 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 2: top of the wave. So what would stress chimps out 489 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 2: that they need a couple of drinks at the end 490 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 2: of the day. Probably the whole mating thing or I 491 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 2: don't know, the whole mating thing. It's a pretty big 492 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 2: deal for all beasts. Yes, well, mating thing, but that's 493 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: not stressful. 494 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 3: That's more like, hey, baby, why you why don't we 495 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 3: have a couple of fermented mangoes and and you sit 496 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 3: on my lap and. 497 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 1: You wake up with an orangutang. Yeah. What do chimps 498 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 1: do all day? They just gather food, right, They peeled 499 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: bananas upside down and. 500 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 3: Mate and uh tend of their little cute little chimp kids. 501 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 2: Monkeys peel their bananas from the bottom, unlike humans, And 502 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 2: I've tried to do that. 503 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: It's not easy. I don't know if you have to 504 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: have the monkey fingernails or grip strength, right, like not 505 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: the stem end.

Have you ever heard my idea for 555 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 2: a bed? And I can't believe that this is copyrighted. 556 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 2: I think this would work so well for people like me, 557 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 2: side sleepers or stomach sleepers. 558 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: There's a hole in the bed that you can put 559 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: your arm through. 560 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 2: Because the arm is always in the way, It's like, 561 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 2: where do I put this arm to be comfortable? If 562 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: I could put my arm through a hole in the 563 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 2: bed and then it's just completely out of the way. 564 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: I think Simpson invents something like that. No, he put 565 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: the little things behind the chair like Thomas Edison. 566 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 3: Oh, and the toilet recliner too, so you don't have 567 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 3: to get up while you're watching the game. 568 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 2: Right now, the arm hole through the bed is mine, 569 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 2: and I really think that would work. I don't know 570 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 2: why I haven't made a prototype yet and tried to 571 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 2: sell it to somebody.
