1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Do human beings have a limited amount of empathy? It's

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: one more thing, I'm strong and getty, one more thing

3
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 1: three two one. Yeah, I don't know how well you

4
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: could hear that? Three two one see you The last

5
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: words of a British daredevil as he attempted to base

6
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 1: jump off a twenty nine story building in Thailand. His

7
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 1: shoote did not open, he went splat on the cement

8
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 1: and he is no more. So my question was, and

9
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: I think this is an interesting one, do human beings

10
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 1: have a limited amount of empathy? Individual human beings? Because

11
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: when I I hear a story like that, I have

12
00:00:55,360 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: no feeling whatsoever, like of sadness or you're dead, because

13
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: I feel like I've only got so much empathy and

14
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna save it for those soldiers that died sleeping

15
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: in their barracks and Jordan the other day, and their families,

16
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: and you know a million other examples you come across

17
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: every single day in the news or maybe even your

18
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: own personal life. But somebody who decides to be a daredevil,

19
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: and the whole point of being a daredevil is sometimes

20
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: it doesn't work. Otherwise you're not a dared devil yours,

21
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: I mean It's as similar to sitting in an office

22
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: chair every day. I mean, if there's no risk, there's

23
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: no excitement to it, and if now and then it

24
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: doesn't go right, I just I feel nothing for that person.

25
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: So it's it.

26
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: There's death defying stunt and death said you know today

27
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 2: I went or would you say? Look, there's no limit

28
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 2: on empathy. You can be empathetic toward the you know,

29
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 2: the parents of the child who was abducted, or those

30
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 2: people who died in Jordan, and this guy who got

31
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: squashed because he has people who love him also, Which

32
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 2: is it, Katie?

33
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: Why are you putting me on the spot to make

34
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: you uncomfortable? Very good? I think, I don't know. Well,

35
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: what do you do when the guy died? Well, no

36
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 1: part of me's with you.

37
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, well, if he hadn't to jumped off

38
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 3: the building, you wouldn't be dead, correct, right, So obviously

39
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 3: my heart goes out more to those people where it's

40
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 3: an uncontrollable situation. But then again, of course I think

41
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 3: about this guy's family too, and I kind of you

42
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 3: know that sucks.

43
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, Yeah, I don't.

44
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 2: I don't have a lot of empathy for him. I

45
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 2: don't have antipathy though, I'm not like to the guy

46
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 2: and thinking.

47
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: Yes what you get? No, no, no, I don't have

48
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 1: that at all. I just got nothing. I have no

49
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: feeling whatsoever for it. Huh. Sometimes it doesn't work. Didn't

50
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: work this time. He struck a bargain he was comfortable with.

51
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 2: He had a life I'll bet he enjoyed very much,

52
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:49,839
Speaker 2: and an all an ever present possibility came true.

53
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: Fair deal. Yeah.

54
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 3: I think it's a big scale of people's emotions too,

55
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,239
Speaker 3: because I mean there'll be so many times where I'll see.

56
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: A video and somebody will be like, oh, I'm crying.

57
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 3: Why is there?

58
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 2: We go?

59
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: My phone won't silence, so there we go, Sorry about that.

60
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: Or somebody will be like.

61
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm watching this and I'm crying, and I'm going,

62
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 3: why why are you? What is what about this is

63
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 3: making you cry? It'll be some heart touching thing.

64
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: But I don't know. I think it's a different range

65
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: and emotion for people. Hmmm. Somebody might be that in

66
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: maybe you're dead inside, just like Jack.

67
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 3: I don't know.

68
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: Well, more likely I was trying to figure out if

69
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: I'm a bad person. But as Joe always says, there

70
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: are plenty of examples of why you're a bad person.

71
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: You don't need to look to this one again. We

72
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: could hold another staff vote if you'd like, but I'd

73
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: like to be in on that vote. Another staff vote.

74
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: Everyone say, I I an.

75
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 3: No, I.

76
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: I admire a guy like that on one level, but no,

77
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 2: I'm not going to pretend to be heartbroken. He lived

78
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 2: an exciting, wild, short short as it turns out, was

79
00:03:58,480 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 2: he married?

80
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: It doesn't say I doubt it. He was like in

81
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: his I think he's twenty nine or something.

82
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 3: I was just gonna say that would be that's I

83
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 3: dated a daredevil who used to love to do things

84
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 3: that would end up in injury, and it was the

85
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 3: most frustrating relationship I've ever been in.

86
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll bet I don't know so anyway, So you've

87
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: got that, do you feel anything for that? And then

88
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: this one came across this yesterday, and I'll just tell

89
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 1: you that our friend Tim sand Online responded to this

90
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: with I guess I must be dead inside. Then oh,

91
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: a phrase that several of us have already used about

92
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: this story. Here's what it was. Somebody tweeted out the

93
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: picture of Travis Kelcey kissing Taylor Swift when they met

94
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: on the football field after the game and he said, hey, sweetie,

95
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: and she walks up and kisses him, and I thought

96
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: it was cute. But anyway, here is the tweet. I

97
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: love this photo because it invokes primal reactions in people.

98
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: They are the couple everyone wishes they were in high school.

99
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: They represent the summon of popularity and success. Those who

100
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: fall short this ideal cannot help but feel the sting

101
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: of envy mirror into your soul. And Tim said, I

102
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 1: must feel dead inside then, because I feel nothing about this.

103
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: I thought it was cute. I thought, oh, two young

104
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: people in love. We should leave him alone when I

105
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: saw it.

106
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 2: But yeah, okay, I'm trying to process that. Okay, So

107
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 2: in Syria, I reacted badly to it because I'm jealous

108
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 2: of them from my high school inadequacy and my phone.

109
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: No, no, he's saying, you like it because they portray

110
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 1: what you wanted you wanted to be. See. I don't

111
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: know if I buy this or not, although I think

112
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 1: you're lying if you didn't, If you if you say

113
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: I didn't want to be the high school football star

114
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: or homecoming queen or in love or popular? Really, I mean,

115
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean I was not envious of

116
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 1: those people, Like I didn't walk around envious, But I'd

117
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: be lying, wouldn't if I said, I really don't want

118
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: to be that now, I legitimately wanted nothing to do

119
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: with that in high school. I did not hear that

120
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: I did too, but I think it was it was

121
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: some sort of protection mechanism for my psyche or something.

122
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: It seems weird to like, you don't want to be

123
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 1: popular or attractive and in love.

124
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 2: Who doesn't want to be popular or attractive and in love? Yeah,

125
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: I'm just and I don't want to be rejects. Premise

126
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 2: out of hand guy, Because I haven't thought about this.

127
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: I just I don't know. Maybe it's because I'm soft

128
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: and thoughtful and have the heart of a poet.

129
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 2: What but what when Iday, when I see Michael, Michael

130
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: says what, I'll come in there and slap you silly

131
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: if you don't admit I have the heart of a poet, Michael.

132
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 2: But if I see like an old couple holding hands

133
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 2: and I think that's really.

134
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 1: Sweet, it's simple they love each other, you secretly want

135
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: to be elderly? Yeah, just I don't know if I

136
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: buy it.

137
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 2: I don't.

138
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 1: I get way more of a reaction out of an

139
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: elderly couple than a younger couple. Yeah, a couple of young,

140
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: hot people are in love. I don't. Again, I don't

141
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: have antipathy for them. I'm I'm mad at them.

142
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 2: For that, but I don't particularly you two hotties go

143
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 2: off to get a room.

144
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: Well, so I guess I got both going at the

145
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: same time in that, Like when they put the camera

146
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: on Taylor and she's jumping up and down in a

147
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: hugging Patrick Maholmes wife. I think, Okay, you're young, you're beautiful,

148
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: you're unbelievably rich and famous. Of course you're happy. I mean,

149
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: it just disgusts me on many levels. But on the

150
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: other hand, to say I don't want to be young, rich,

151
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: attractive and admired would be who am I trying to kid?

152
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: Of course everybody wants that, don't they. I don't know.

153
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: I guess I'm just questioning whether that was any part

154
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 2: of my reaction to the two of them spooching at Midfield.

155
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, if that has anything to do with the other,

156
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:09,440
