I feel like you're targeting me. 177 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 3: This may be true, but a Yamade says it's a 178 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 3: fourth step process to tell a lie. 179 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 2: The first step is that I know the truth in 180 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 2: my head. Now, I told you that I love your cooking. 181 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: But for the sake of explanation, let's say that I 182 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 2: find the food a little bit SALTYA. 183 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: Okay, what's the second step. Your brain's gotta decide if 184 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: it wants to tell the truth. 185 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 2: So, like I imagine saying it's a little salty, and 186 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 2: you get really mad and it makes me feel a 187 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 2: certain way, and I don't want to feel that way, 188 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: So I decide I'm gonna say something else, which brings 189 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 2: us to the third step. 190 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: Then you will have to create the new fact. So 191 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: your brain comes up with a new narrative that's actually 192 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: the opposite of how you feel about my food. 193 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 2: And finally I open my mouth and I say the lies, 194 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 2: something like, this is the best. 195 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: Meal I've ever had in my life. And don't forget 196 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: to turn it up a few octaves. You know how 197 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: you do, right, I have to become peek at you 198 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: my life according to you. That's exactly how so the 199 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: process takes. 200 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 2: Twice as much brain power as it does to tell 201 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 2: the truth. When I'm telling the truth, I have the 202 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 2: thought the food is salty, and I just say it. 203 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: The food is salty, but my food isn't. Okay, soakia 204 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: it was the best meal I ever had. Perfect. 205 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 3: But even after you tell the lie, your work's not over. 206 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 3: In fact, you're now creating even more work for your brain. 207 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,839 Speaker 1: Line is stress. You have to keep up the lie. 208 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: You have to be able to remember and access all 209 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: the lies that you've told. 210 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 3: Basically, our mind just becomes a rolodex of lies, and 211 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 3: anytime someone asks you a new question, you have to 212 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 3: shuffle through all those cars to make sure your answer 213 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 3: is in line with all of the FIBs you've been 214 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 3: telling people. 215 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: What I want to know is is what's actually going 216 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: on inside of my brain when I'm telling this lie, 217 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,479 Speaker 1: like which parts of my brain are being activated? 218 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,199 Speaker 3: All right, let's zoom in for the purpose of today's lab. 219 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 3: We're gonna think of the brain as made up of 220 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 3: two main components, the white matter in the middle, and 221 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 3: then the gray matter that's all around it on the outside. 222 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 2: Gray matter is made up of nerve cells in your brain, 223 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 2: and nerve cells receive and process stimuli or signals from 224 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 2: outside or inside your body, and then they tell your 225 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 2: body how to react. For example, if you touch a 226 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 2: hot stove, the nerve cell will process that stove is 227 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: hot and direct your body to pull your finger away. 228 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 3: But the nerve cells don't work without being able to 229 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 3: communicate with each other. In order for them to talk 230 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 3: to each other, they have to send messages, and the 231 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 3: space through which they send those messages that's your white matter. 232 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 3: The white matter in your brain is sort of like 233 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 3: a rubber coating around a copper wire. It insulates the 234 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 3: gray matter and helps ensure the messages get where they 235 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: need to go. The more white matter you have, the 236 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 3: stronger the connections between those nerve cells and different parts 237 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 3: of your brain. 238 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 2: And as Yamade says, there's also a connection between white 239 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 2: matter and the brain and lying. There is some science 240 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 2: behind it that says that people who have more white 241 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 2: matter in their brain it's easier for them to lie. 242 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 2: That makes sense because lying is work, and white matter 243 00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 2: makes it easier for your brain to do all the 244 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 2: mental gymnastics needed to lie. 245 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 3: And there are studies that say it's actually possible to 246 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 3: increase the amount of white matter in your brain, like 247 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 3: if you exercise more or learn a new skill. The 248 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 3: same is true for lying. The more your brain does it, 249 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 3: the more white matter you create, and the easier it gets. 250 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 3: So you just keep laying those bricks building a house 251 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 3: of lies. 252 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: So you keep practicing, and pretty soon you'll be what 253 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 2: Kobe Bryant is to basketball, the black Mamba of liars. 254 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 3: Right, this is like a new first date question. So 255 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 3: I'm gonna be saying, I'm gonna ask people like, do 256 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 3: you know your white matter percentage? 257 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: Right? Have you? When was your last MRI skin? Right? 258 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 2: If it's so much work, then why do we lie? 259 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 2: Yamade says, there's two main reasons why we're lying to 260 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 2: each other. When we talk about it from a psychological standpoint, 261 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 2: it's about power and control. 262 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 3: You're either controlling what you want people to feel or do, 263 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 3: or you're trying to gain some power as it relates 264 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 3: to what you can and can't attain. 265 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: Like another meal at my house. I'm always down for 266 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: another meal at your house. 267 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 2: So when even if it's something minute, like when somebody says, hey, 268 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 2: how are you, when you're saying, oh, I'm fine, things 269 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:04,239 Speaker 2: are good and things are terrible, for instance, you're controlling 270 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 2: the situation. You're trying to control the conversation so people 271 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 2: don't dig any deeper. 272 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 1: I knew it all this time. 273 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 3: You've been telling me my outfit looks good or you 274 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 3: like my food, and you've been controlling me while everybody 275 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 3: thinks that you're the good guy. 276 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 2: But what about power though? How do people use lying 277 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 2: as a power move? When do you think about power 278 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 2: and lying? Let's take the best example. 279 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: We have the president. 280 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 3: He is the most powerful man in the world, and 281 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,959 Speaker 3: he continues to lie about winning the popular vote, about 282 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 3: how many people showed up to his inauguration, or you 283 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 3: know Russia, Why because if he tells the. 284 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: Truth, the truth that he be lying, then in the 285 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 2: simplest form, his power may diminish because he's no longer 286 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:44,479 Speaker 2: an authority. 287 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 1: Right. 288 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 2: That's the reason why he's so like gung ho about 289 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 2: this whole wall thing. And he told everyone that he 290 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 2: was going to build this wall and that Mexico was 291 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 2: going to pay for it. And if he doesn't build 292 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 2: this wall, then in his mind he feels like he's 293 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 2: going to lose some type of power. At this point, 294 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 2: I think he'll say that anything is a wall, just 295 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 2: to maintain that it could be a bed of roses, 296 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 2: and he'll be like, my wall is working. 297 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 3: So now we understand the motivation behind lying and what's 298 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 3: going on in your brain when you do lie. When 299 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 3: we come back from the break, we're going to talk 300 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 3: about the more extreme side of lying, the kind of 301 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 3: line that can affect the course of your life or 302 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 3: land you in jail. Stay tuned, so we're back and 303 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 3: ready to talk about the more extreme side of line. 304 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 3: So everybody lies, and you know, for some people is 305 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 3: more extreme than for others. But for a smaller subset 306 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 3: of people, lying is a symptom of something bigger. 307 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 2: There are some diagnoses where lying is a symptom or 308 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 2: a behavior of the diagnoses. These diagnoses that a Yamide 309 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 2: is talking about fall under the category of personality disorders. 310 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 2: A personalorder is a deeply ingrained pattern of behavior that 311 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 2: makes it really hard for people to have long term 312 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,599 Speaker 2: relationships or function in society. The most common personality disorders 313 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 2: include antisocial personality disorder, which is also called sociopathy, and narcissism. 314 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: The difference between the narcissist and someone who was a sociopath. 315 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 2: The narcissist wants to be grand. When you think about it, 316 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 2: like you are trying. You are so insecure, you feel 317 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 2: so bad about who you are and what you do 318 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 2: or do not have, and you are trying to create 319 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 2: this grander sense of self. So for narcissists, it's really 320 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 2: about making yourself look really popping in the public eye, 321 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 2: So making yourself look like you diddy when you're really not. 322 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: Like Billy McFarland from The Fire Festival. 323 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 2: When you watch the documentary, like all of a sudden, 324 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 2: he started buying like Mazaratis, and he wanted to be 325 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 2: a celebrity, and he wanted to rub elbows and he 326 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 2: had all. 327 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: This prestige, And this is just a disclaimer. 328 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 2: Yamaday is not Billy's counselor, and we're not diagnosing him 329 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 2: with a personality disorder. 330 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,359 Speaker 1: We're not those kind of doctors. 331 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 3: When I saw the sheer levels of I'm just trying 332 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 3: to get this money, I don't care about y'all lies that. 333 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: Were being told exactly, I could not believe it. 334 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 2: How can you sit there and tell these bold face 335 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 2: lies when you have taken tens of thousands of dollars 336 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 2: from people and you know for a fact that this 337 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 2: thing ain't happening, and you're still like, cute, up the music, turn. 338 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: It up, loud, turn the music up. I'm like, Broy, 339 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: you can't play the music over that. There's no ten 340 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: for these people. There's no villain. You gave me a 341 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: cheese sandwich and I paid ten thousand dollars to come here. 342 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 3: Right, I was thinking about the Ballou challenge, right when 343 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 3: Balow got caught posting a bunch of lies on Instagram, 344 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 3: trying to stunt in the streets. So did you see 345 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 3: where they're showing people in this other I can't remember 346 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 3: what country it is, but like they're paying to go 347 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 3: and take pictures of themselves on private jets, but they 348 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 3: never leave the runway, like just to look like I'm 349 00:15:58,680 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 3: out here. 350 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, And that is typical narcissistic behavior. But for sociopaths, 351 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: the motivation is a little bit different. 352 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 2: Our sociopaths are going to be people who will lie 353 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 2: because they have no conscience, so they don't care how 354 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 2: it makes you feel, because at the end of the day, 355 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 2: it's about self preservation. Sociopaths don't have empathy, and that's 356 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 2: the ability to stand in someone else's shoes and understand 357 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 2: how they feel. This means they can lie without feeling 358 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 2: any of the guilt or remorse that many people experience. 359 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: Still, sociopaths can be really hard to spot. So basically, 360 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: people who are sociopaths tend to be extremely charismatic. They 361 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: know how they're supposed to act. Lots of times, sociopaths 362 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: have the inability to create to create meaningful relationships, so 363 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 1: they might be a really nice person, but nine times 364 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: out of time they don't have any friends. So you 365 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: may be thinking, these are such terrible people. We see 366 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: you over there judging, But. 367 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 3: From a scientific perspective, there's some important content to think about. 368 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 3: That actually makes these people a pretty fascinating group. 369 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 2: Biology does not make any mistakes. There are sociopaths for 370 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 2: a reason. Sociopaths are always going to make sure that 371 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 2: they will survive, and they. 372 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 3: Will when it's the zombie apocalypse. I need somebody who's 373 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 3: gonna save the human race. Not out here trying to 374 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 3: save a pregnant soundra Bullock right from the cus. 375 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: Like bird box, right exactly. 376 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 3: We don't need any tender ronies. It's time for a 377 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 3: rough ride up right right. So regardless of why someone 378 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 3: is lying, what about the people that are receiving the lies? 379 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 3: What makes us continue to believe lies? Like even though 380 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 3: we know you didn't get a six pack from that 381 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 3: flat tummy tee, We're still gonna. 382 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: Like your posts. I'm gonna come back and see what 383 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: you're posting tomorrow. 384 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 2: Because it costs more to not believe it. Lots of times, 385 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: we live in this space called emotional mind. 386 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: In the emotional mind, your feelings outweigh everything else, right, 387 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: So the facts don't matter. 388 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, you only care about what makes you feel good. 389 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 3: Does that sound familiar to any of you? 390 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 2: That's the biggest part of therapy is for some folks 391 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 2: is just having them believe the truth. And so when 392 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 2: we say that, we're really talking about believing and connecting 393 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 2: with what we see and what we hear and all 394 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 2: of our senses, and not necessarily with the emotion. I 395 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 2: don't know if this is emotional mind, but this is 396 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 2: a time when t T told a partial lot, not 397 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 2: really a lot. She just said some things, and my 398 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 2: emotional mind took over. I was out to dinner with 399 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:36,400 Speaker 2: friends and you told me, and you were like, come, 400 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: I need you to come home now. 401 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: I have an emergency. These are the words that I said. 402 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: This is a key on the phone. 403 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,360 Speaker 2: I said, Hey, I need you to meet me at 404 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 2: your house, like right now, And she said, is everything okay? 405 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 2: And I said, I'm not sure. Can you please just 406 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 2: come here now? I really, I really need to talk 407 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 2: to you. 408 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,120 Speaker 3: In my mind, I was like, something's happened. TT killed 409 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 3: a man and we will have to hide the body. 410 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 3: And naturally I'm the person you call for. 411 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 2: That, right So, But what's the kid didn't know is 412 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 2: that on the other side of that phone, I was 413 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 2: with our good friend Brittany, and Brittany wanted to surprise 414 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 2: the kid because the kid was getting a really big 415 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 2: award that weekend, and so she drove up. She messaged 416 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 2: me and said, hey, I want to surprise the Kia, 417 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 2: but I need you to get her to come home. 418 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 2: And so that was what TG's plan was, to get 419 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 2: me to come home. I said, what do you want 420 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 2: me to say? And Brittany says, say anything. Tell her 421 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 2: it's an emergency. And I said, well, she's gonna get worried. 422 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,959 Speaker 2: And Brittany said, and I quote, she calls me with 423 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 2: non emergency emergencies all the time. 424 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: It'll be okay. So I called the kid and told 425 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: her it's an emergency. 426 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 2: And then she came flying down the road I did, 427 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 2: and pulls up to her house and walks up to 428 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 2: me nervous. 429 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: I can see it in her face. 430 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 3: I can't tell you the things that ran through my head. Okay, 431 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 3: A knife in. 432 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: My in my console, Oh my god. 433 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 3: And I was like, what if she brought someone to 434 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 3: the house and she wants me to kill them on 435 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 3: the spot. 436 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 2: This is the type of friend. As a kid, She's 437 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 2: ready to kill a man at any time. Okay, So 438 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 2: run up, get done up. That's the motto. 439 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: So that was quite a bit. That was a lot 440 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: for me. You know Zakia like this is not my forte. 441 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: I was just like yes, more socious tell us all 442 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: about it. 443 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 3: The thing that's scary to me is that people's understanding 444 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 3: the fact is always changing, and that's not how we operate. 445 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 2: You know, no, not a scientists, fact is fact. As scientists, 446 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 2: it's our job to uncover new facts. We don't just 447 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 2: make stuff up. We don't just pull it out of nowhere. 448 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 2: It is rooted in a lot of other facts. 449 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 3: I do feel like facts used to It used to 450 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 3: be like that's a fact, it's undisputable. Like right now 451 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 3: we're both wearing black shirts which happened to be from 452 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 3: Dope Blaps podcast dot com. Go and get one. But 453 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 3: now I feel like there's somebody, there's a troll in 454 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 3: the room waiting to say, actually that's just a dark. 455 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 2: Gray or likes it is ridiculous. 456 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 3: It's like people out here are not testing anything and 457 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 3: just saying this is the truth. 458 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: This is my truth. So it's the truth. It's like 459 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 1: no drugs. 460 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 2: Through the through the border, huh, based on what right? 461 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 1: What evidence do you have? You have no evidence. You 462 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 1: just heard it from your neighbor. 463 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 3: You s hearing this caravans crossing the border at this 464 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 3: spot every day, all right, So that means every day 465 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 3: I should be able to go to this border and 466 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 3: there should be caravans, no excuse, because if that is 467 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 3: the fact, it should be reproducible. I should be able 468 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 3: to see it within that time scale that you told 469 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 3: me over and over and over and over again. And 470 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 3: that's how you establish a fact. It is something that 471 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 3: is unwavering under those conditions. Being a scientist has gotten 472 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,239 Speaker 3: me in so much trouble in social settings because I 473 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 3: am trained for someone to say, oh, it's a lovely 474 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 3: day outside. 475 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: What's lovely? Is it just to you everywhere? Oh? 476 00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 2: So that means that it's lovely to you because you 477 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,439 Speaker 2: prefer sunshine, But I prefer sunshine and rainbow. So to me, 478 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 2: it's not a lovely day. 479 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: It's just to day. It's just a day. 480 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 3: And so when people say, oh, o, Zakia, don't say 481 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 3: it like that.
