But his performance there and just like his 192 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 2: stats right now are pretty they're they're solid. 193 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah, no, I mean you know so I 194 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 3: so so he kind of is like the at least 195 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 3: before this season, in the offseason, you know, for people 196 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 3: who are like in the NBA fantasy leagues, he was 197 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 3: the kind of like classic like his stats are incredible, 198 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 3: He's going to go super high, but you know, is 199 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 3: he just a stat guy and whatever? And then I, 200 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 3: you know, and I sort of like had dismissed him 201 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 3: as that and sort of had this little antagonistic like 202 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 3: and then you know, I kind of I read a 203 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 3: great long profile of him in the ESPN, the magazine, 204 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 3: and it was like, oh, he's like a seems like 205 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 3: a real good dude. And then yeah, he's played a 206 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 3: couple of national Games where it's like, oh my god, 207 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 3: he is legit. And you know, last night was his big, 208 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 3: I think, breakout performance where people are talking about him 209 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 3: as the next kind of big superstar. But I will 210 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 3: also say, and this is why it straddles both lines. 211 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 2: For me. 212 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 3: Aesthetically, something about his game is a little jankie to me. Yeah, yes, 213 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 3: Like his shot starts like at the chest and then 214 00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 3: like pops up. It's just not I don't watch it 215 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 3: and get and get that thrill that I watch when 216 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 3: I watch other great. 217 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 2: Players shoot or something like that. 218 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 3: Yeah or Jah or whoever, Kyrie. You know it's like, 219 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 3: but you know, usually most great players there's also an 220 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 3: aesthetic appeal in addition to like they're just really effective, right, 221 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 3: And he's got this weird disconnect on that front for me, 222 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 3: And maybe you know, if I'm watching my mouf, I'll 223 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 3: just come to appreciate his janky stuff. But even when 224 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 3: he's dribbling, I'm like, the limbs are just going at 225 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 3: like slightly different angles. I don't know what it is. 226 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 3: And so now I'm like, I'm I'm roiling as you 227 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 3: can tell, right, Yeah, with the durrated roller coaster that 228 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 3: I'm injurating him. 229 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, because some of the shots he put up, I 230 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 2: was definitely like, is that are you? Are you sure that. 231 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: I love an ugly shot? You don't get a lot 232 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 1: of them in the NBA, right, You know, Sean Marion 233 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: was like a solid deep long range shooter who shot 234 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: it like he he just someone threw him a basketball 235 00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: that he and he never picked one up, and they 236 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: were like, try try and shoot, try and shoot like 237 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: a person. You know, nobody told him how to shoot basically, 238 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 1: but and he's got he's got one of those ugly shots. 239 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: I had an ugly shot when I was playing basketball, 240 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: so I always know you're ugly. 241 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 3: The two comps that came to mind were Sean Marian 242 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 3: and you. 243 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 2: Right and me, yes exactly.

His game is also 247 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: like his shot isn't ugly, but it's not pretty either, 248 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: and his game is it's like a lot of off 249 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: speed pitches. It's a lot of like herky jerkiness. And 250 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: those are probably the two best young guards in the NBA. 251 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: So like, I feel like there's something where people are 252 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: figuring out like a way to model their games so 253 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: that it's not just MP over everybody. 254 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 3: And the best player in the world is someone who 255 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 3: I like delight and how ugly his game is, right, 256 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 3: and so you have so yeah, she likes Between jo 257 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 3: Kics and those two, where are we like entering an 258 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 3: era of the just like absurdly janky looking shot or 259 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 3: body movement which feels weird? 260 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 2: Right? 261 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 3: You'd think that, like the mark that what is the 262 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,719 Speaker 3: arc of the athletic universe would bend towards grace, right right, 263 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 3: Instead you. 264 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 2: Have this, Yeah, but this one, like we say on 265 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,679 Speaker 2: Jack and Miles Gott Miles and Jackot Matt BOOSTI is 266 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 2: Jokics plays uncle ball, You know what I mean?

I 339 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: don't know, there was like points during earlier this year, 340 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: where people are like we've turned a corner, and then 341 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: the initial headlines. I feel like it's a good metaphor 342 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: for the climate discussion, where it's like you'll get some 343 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: good headlines, some positive seeming things happening, and then like 344 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: once you take a closer look, like people are like, 345 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: it's it's not. 346 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 2: Good, yeah, because like the whole point is to get 347 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 2: you know, the all of the the one hundred and 348 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 2: twenty five countries together and be like all right, y'all, 349 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 2: how are we gonna unfuck this thing? And we all 350 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: got before we leave, Yeah, like for real this time, 351 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 2: we got to do some real heavy lifting. In the beginning, 352 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 2: like you said, there were things that made it feel positive, 353 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,959 Speaker 2: like commitments to series cut like methane emissions and like 354 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 2: increased funds for countries that are being affected by climate 355 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 2: change who are otherwise unable to help themselves because of 356 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 2: you know, the economics of it all. But like you're saying, 357 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 2: he starts zooming out and the optimism like fucking vanishes 358 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 2: like almost instantly, like for starters. Right, the event is 359 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 2: taking place in Dubai, Okay. The UAE is a nation 360 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,439 Speaker 2: built on fossil fuel profits. And the man leading the 361 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 2: talks in Dubai is this guy, Sultan al Jabert who 362 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 2: he is the head of the state owned Abu Dhabi 363 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 2: National Oil Company, and he is the one sort of 364 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 2: presiding over these like climate talks, and and then so like, 365 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 2: and I can add even more to this. 366 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 4: Prior to the conference beginning, he said out loud in 367 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,959 Speaker 4: another conference, said there was quote no science that indicated 368 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 4: that a phase out of fossil fuels is needed to 369 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 4: stop temperatures from rising above one and a half degrees celsius. 370 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: One more thing, who are you gonna believe? Who are 371 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 1: you gonna believe? Miles, You're gonna believe the scientists, or 372 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 1: you're gonna believe they got ahead of. 373 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 2: State owned oil company. And then only that there was 374 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,120 Speaker 2: leaked There were leaked documents that showed that a lot 375 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 2: of these people representing different state owned oil companies and 376 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 2: the emirates were planning on using the talks to like 377 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 2: generate more business for fossil fuel extraction. Like they were like, yeah, 378 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 2: well it would be great because you know a lot 379 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 2: of people are going to be in town for this, 380 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 2: so it's hard to imagine anything significant will be done 381 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 2: against this backdrop, especially when the biggest negotiation at the 382 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 2: conference that everyone is paying attention to is are we 383 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 2: going to actually start articulating a phase out of fossil fuels, 384 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 2: or as some lobbyists would rather say, how about phase 385 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 2: down because at least down doesn't indicate out forever. Can 386 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 2: we say phase down? Can we say phase out? There's 387 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 2: a lot of back and forth of that. Saudi Arabia 388 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 2: has flatly said that anything resembling a fossil fuel phase 389 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 2: out in an agreement, they will just they will be 390 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 2: it will be rejected by their delegation and the way 391 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 2: the talks are structured, it all takes is one party 392 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,679 Speaker 2: to fucking scuttle whole thing. So you're dealing with a 393 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 2: lot of fucking variables here that don't spell their you know, 394 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 2: a good time for Earth in the near future. And 395 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 2: then you have the record number of lobbyists of like 396 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 2: from the oil gas industries that are there. Last year 397 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 2: we talked about when it was in Egypt, they set 398 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 2: a record for lobbyists that were in attendance, Like how 399 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 2: they were more lobbyists than like people who were from 400 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 2: like a single country for example, like they're the combined 401 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 2: amount of lobbyists that are out actually registered as lobbyist, 402 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 2: because there's a ton of people who might not be 403 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 2: outwardly saying that they're there to lobby for something they are. Basically, 404 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 2: they outnumber every country's delegation except for Brazil's, and Brazil 405 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 2: has more because they are going to be hosting it 406 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 2: in like a year and a half or something, so 407 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 2: like that's why they have more people. But also they 408 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 2: fossil fuel lobbyists outnumber in official indigenous representatives by seven 409 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: to one, and that means like they have more passes 410 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 2: lobbyists than the combined total of delegates from the ten 411 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 2: most climate vulnerable countries combined, including Somalia, Chad, Tonga, the 412 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 2: Solomon Islands, and Sudan. And this quote from David Tong 413 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 2: of Oil Change International sums it up pretty well. He said, quote, 414 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 2: you would not invite arms dealers to a peace conference, 415 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 2: and that's kind of what we have now. It's just 416 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 2: arms fest at the peace. 417 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: Fest depends on how lit you want your peace conference 418 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: to be. 419 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, I mean I was one. I was 420 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 3: sort of wondering and reading about this, whether this is 421 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,199 Speaker 3: like the new Davos, you know, and this is the 422 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 3: new just kind of like we're going to go party, 423 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 3: We're going to make ourselves feel important, and we're going 424 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 3: to kind of cut some deals, and ostensibly there's this 425 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 3: other project that's not actually gonna accomplish anything. 426 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 1: Right, right, and they're like kind of protecting against something 427 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: being accomplished. We've had climate experts and environmentalists on the 428 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: show described this as an energy industry trade show, right, right. 429 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, So I went back and looked at because you 430 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 3: know Cop twenty eight, that's renumber right, So I went 431 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,360 Speaker 3: back and looked at like Cop one and two and three, right, 432 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 3: and so you know, the planks and the things, the 433 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 3: basic you know, things that were being discussed at those 434 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 3: in the mid nineties into the early two thousands were 435 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 3: basically the exact same, right. Cop Cop two right in Geneva, 436 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 3: Switzerland was basically about do we want uniform policies or 437 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 3: do we want flexibility? Do we want legally binding mid 438 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 3: term targets or do we want larger principles upon which 439 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 3: we will all adhere. 440 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 2: You know. 441 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 3: Cop three was the big Kyoto Protocol one. Cop four 442 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 3: was like we need we are pledging for a two 443 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 3: year plan of action, right, right, you know, and that's 444 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 3: like us, you know, two year plan of action, two 445 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 3: year plan of action. I mean, and then you know, 446 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 3: you look at like COP six seven eight, this question 447 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 3: of financial assistance for developing countries and this question of 448 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,880 Speaker 3: kind of how to you know, developing countries need to 449 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 3: use carbon in order to advance their economic principles, but 450 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 3: also you know they're going to be affected. Back like 451 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 3: that is just like year after year after year after year, 452 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 3: it's just comes up, people say some things, it doesn't 453 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 3: get fully results. So it is kind of remarkable. 454 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it wasn't until last year where they're like, 455 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,199 Speaker 2: all right, I guess we can put some money together 456 00:22:58,320 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 2: for these other right, And so. 457 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I think it's right, and it 458 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 3: does feel like in this first the fact that got 459 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 3: accomplished on the first day of the conference did the 460 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 3: sort of surprise some climate activists and you know probably 461 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 3: also then like let everyone at the conference be like, well, 462 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 3: we did a good thing on day one, so we 463 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 3: can just you know, lobby and party for the rest 464 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 3: of it. But can I can I ask a sort 465 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 3: of bigger picture question of the two of you for 466 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 3: something I've been thinking about with climate activism and sort 467 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 3: of you know what needs to get done, which is 468 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 3: I think we've moved so far past the point where 469 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 3: like a single solution or even like a single kind 470 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 3: of group like, oh, the people are going to get 471 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 3: together in Kyoto at COP three and kind of like 472 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 3: governments are going to figure this out. We've moved so 473 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 3: far past that idea of like a couple central answers 474 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 3: to this that weirdly it feels like now we're in 475 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 3: a well, we might as well try everything moment, right, 476 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 3: And I think talking to folks you know, who are 477 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 3: active in climate change circles, like that is where we're at. 478 00:23:59,560 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 2: Right. 479 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 3: It's like no one solution, no one political process, no 480 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 3: one country is going to solve this. We just kind 481 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 3: of have to try everything. And I weirdly find a 482 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 3: little solace in that in that, like the guardrails, the 483 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 3: abdication of responsibility is sort of off for most people, 484 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 3: and it's just kind of like, well, we got to 485 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 3: try everything, and so you know, maybe this is just 486 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 3: maybe this is a sort of me giving up in 487 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 3: some way. But I'm like, if cop accomplishes a you know, 488 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 3: two percent of something, great because over here, someone's going 489 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 3: to accomplish two percent over here, and that's the only 490 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 3: way this is going to happen. Is just like a 491 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 3: million different things nudging progress a little bit forward, as 492 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 3: opposed to what we were doing for I think for 493 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 3: a long time, which was sort of saying like, well, 494 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 3: world leaders need to get together and get their act together. 495 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 3: And I think that you know, idea is long gone. 496 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 2: Right, yeah, Like it kind of the thing kind of 497 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 2: reminds me of like those like scenes and like a 498 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 2: like a superhero comedy film where someone's trying to get 499 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 2: away in a car and the superheroes just lifting the 500 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,360 Speaker 2: car from the back so the wheels can't move right, 501 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 2: and like that's what this feels like. The cars like 502 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 2: it could go forward if these assholes let them let 503 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 2: go and let it move forward. And then so we 504 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 2: get these little incremental changes that like are absolutely heartening. 505 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 2: I think it's just and then but looking at the 506 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 2: totality of it, it's like, God, there's still so much 507 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 2: energy and investment to basically offset whatever gains there are 508 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 2: to continue like the profitability of the extraction. But I think, 509 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 2: like to your point, it is better to think of 510 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 2: like that there are many ways to potentially achieve this, 511 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 2: whether it's through like how fucking like the dairy industry 512 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 2: is working, or agriculture these other things, and if many 513 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 2: of these things can come together that there we may 514 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 2: find a way here. But the biggest thing is it's 515 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 2: it's these nations. It's these state actors who are really 516 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 2: have a lot of control over like the sheer volume 517 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 2: of emissions. And when you know that, like they're like, hey, 518 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 2: we're bringing our lobbyists to to COP twenty eight to 519 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 2: represent our gas industries. Like just like like how serious 520 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 2: are we? So I'm I'm less nihilistic and maybe I'm 521 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 2: just more de frustrated. Yes, that's that's kind of where 522 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 2: I'm at. 523 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 1: I would say, I'm curious when in looking back at 524 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: the past cops, do you, like, would your sense be 525 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: if there was some way to quantify like the actual 526 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 1: beneficial ideas or you know, progress that came from each 527 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,479 Speaker 1: one of them. Like, how do you think if we 528 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: were to rank the top twenty eight cops? Okay, top 529 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 1: twenty eight? 530 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 2: How long do you have copy? 531 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: But I'm just wondering because it feels like putting a 532 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 1: meeting together, a meeting of the minds with this as 533 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: a as the central goal is a good idea in theory. 534 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:49,400 Speaker 1: Once it becomes a place for various companies to strategize, 535 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 1: like in the presence of people talking about things that 536 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 1: are specifically meant to hem them in Like then it 537 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 1: almost becomes like you're building an institutional means for just 538 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: skirting all the laws and all of the things that 539 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: we are trying to do. Because yeah, I totally agree, 540 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: Like it's not going to be one silver bullet, it's 541 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: going to be a lot of things. But those all 542 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:21,719 Speaker 1: of those things are going to be avoided with precision 543 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 1: and legal you know, just millions of hours of legal 544 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,679 Speaker 1: arguments and contracts and things like that put in by 545 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: these companies because that's what they do. Like sending companies 546 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: that are focused only on profit for the most part, 547 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: like focused only on profit to be the solution to 548 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: climate change. It just seems so it seems not like 549 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: you know, well we might as well try everything and 550 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: more like this is actively doing harm, Like it's going 551 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 1: to be the thing that will allow us to continue 552 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: down the road that we've been going down. Yeah, is 553 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: my concern. 554 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like that, it's like that that quote that 555 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 2: Homer says and like about beer, except it's like fossil 556 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 2: fuels the cause of and solution to all life's problems. 557 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 2: You're like, how because there's so many gas on it. Well, 558 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 2: I mean that is a huge thing. Like you hear 559 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 2: the people how the lobbyists are speaking about the industries 560 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 2: that the industry they represent, and they're like, we have 561 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 2: to do this in a humane way, like and it's 562 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 2: really talking about humane to their company's bottom line. But 563 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 2: they're but they couch it in this thing, this argument 564 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 2: of like, well, we're gonna need fossil fuels to help 565 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 2: these other economies get online to get to that point. 566 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 2: But really, and I think that's what makes it really 567 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 2: difficult is because there it's easy to do this sort 568 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 2: of double speak and then from that extract like a 569 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 2: good headline if you are in the more greenwashing sector 570 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,959 Speaker 2: of this conference, or you can extract a good headline 571 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: if you're there to protect the investments or whatever. So 572 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 2: it is just kind of wild though, too, because we're 573 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 2: in this like liminal base where like they're rich and powerful, 574 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 2: are still doing their old school shit, like you know, 575 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 2: like just self dealing in full view of the public, 576 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 2: but because they were used to like a public that 577 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 2: was just uninformed or apathetic, and now people are like 578 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 2: what the fuck hold on, who's running the conference? How 579 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 2: many lobbyists? 580 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 3: And they're like, what the what's Well, it's a reality 581 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 3: check where I think, you know, over the last year 582 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 3: or two in the US, you know, I think you 583 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 3: could probably tell yourself a story that like, oh, you know, 584 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 3: the sort of capitalistic market incentives and the energy and 585 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 3: the climate change have kind of moved a little more 586 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 3: in parallel and are maybe working a little more in 587 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 3: sync right over the last year. And I think, you know, 588 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 3: for sure, the Biden's bill has a big part of that, 589 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 3: and that was the sort of calculus there, and then 590 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 3: you just you know, to your point, well as you 591 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 3: get this like wake up call where it's just like 592 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 3: a Katari assaultan who's like, what the fuck are you 593 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 3: talking about? I'm an oil guy, Like, let's let's do it. 594 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I brought the guess what, I just brought the 595 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 2: entire global oil industry to my back yard. And then 596 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 2: we can kind of like side plan stuff based on 597 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 2: whatever else is going on. So yeah, it's it's uh, yeah, it's. 598 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 3: One one little tidbit, just that I noticed here from 599 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 3: this guy that you you shouted out Sultan Ahmed al Jabart, 600 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 3: which is like he spent his first his talk at 601 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 3: the Climate on his first day his major address, like 602 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 3: complaining about how the media had misinterpreted him about his climate, 603 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 3: about his you know, comments earlier aboutw we'll never be 604 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 3: able to divest from fossil fuels.
