If I start coughing in the middle 21 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: of the show. I realize it. In a movie or 22 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: TV show drama, if a character starts coughing, that means 23 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 2: are gonna die. 24 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 1: You did just pull back the napkin that you coughed. 25 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 2: Into it it was, and then quietly, quietly hid it 26 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 2: from you. 27 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: You know, you looked around, your eyes darned back and forth, 28 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: and then you tucked it into your waistband for some reason. 29 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 2: But no, I'm just recovering from a cold. If I 30 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 2: start clearing my throat, I am not trying to get 31 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 2: their attention and demand that they let me talk.

How long ago is 45 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: that writing it? 46 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, but the dozens of interviews all have to give 47 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 2: about it means I have to keep in mind what 48 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: I wrote in it. But for listeners who are in 49 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: the middle of the total world chaos, we are doing 50 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,839 Speaker 2: a book review here. The book is relevant to what's 51 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 2: to what's going on. I promise you you'll you'll see why. 52 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 2: And in fact, there's going to be at least one 53 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 2: very annoying review. I predicted a couple months it says, Wow, 54 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 2: this is so prescient. How if you predict that there 55 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 2: would be an event and the triggers all sorts of 56 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 2: misinformation in cass Yeah, that was not hard. 57 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: Did you know that? That was my first question? Actually, 58 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: we can just get psychic, man. 59 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 2: I love seeing the people with the little screenshots of 60 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: the Simpsons from twenty years ago. It's like, Wow, they 61 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,839 Speaker 2: predicted that elections would become stupid in the future.

Did someone do 66 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 3: it when they were high and forgotten? Like Cypress Hill's like, 67 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 3: oh shit, did we do that? 68 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: And they're like, yeah, yeah. 69 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 3: They're actually performing with them now and they're like, we 70 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 3: kind of had an opportunity and decided to make the 71 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 3: Simpsons prediction. 72 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: Right. So, I mean you hear those violins on uh, 73 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: some of the early Cypress Hill stuff, you can't, man, Yeah, 74 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: it was it was inevitable. All right, Jason, Well, we 75 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: are going to talk about some of the ideas in 76 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: your book. I'm starting to worry about this black box 77 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: of doom? Is that? Well? Did I say that? Right? 78 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:05,839 Speaker 4: Yes? 79 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: I I didn't say did I not say the title 80 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: in the well the first time you mentioned the I'm 81 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: a pro folks, But first, we do like to get 82 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: to know our guests a little bit better by asking 83 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: you what is something from your search history that is 84 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: revealing about who you are. 85 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: I have a whole series of searchers over the last 86 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 2: few days trying to figure out what CrowdStrike is, because 87 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 2: it turned out all of modern civilization ran on it 88 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 2: and I'd never heard of that company. It's an eighty 89 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 2: billion dollar company apparently yea, And I still don't know 90 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 2: what it does. And this before the show, I tried 91 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 2: to Google is the CrowdStrike thing over? Is that old 92 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 2: news or flight still grounded around the world? I can't 93 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 2: tell because Google Search is broken, So I don't know 94 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 2: any Does anybody at home know? Email me let me know. 95 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think like that. It seems like there's still 96 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: reports of flights being fucked up, mainly like you have 97 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: to go to the like the markets to see, you know, 98 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: like it's like people reporting on the financials and they'll 99 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: be like, yeah, our our reporting indicates because they have 100 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: to get that right because money is at stake. But 101 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: it does seem like it's taken a while to untangle 102 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: CrowdStrike and there it was just like an update that 103 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: was ill advised, and somehow that took became one of 104 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: the biggest technology fuck ups yet to this point in 105 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: human history. A company that sounds like just a board 106 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: game from the nineteen eighties. Yeah, that would have been 107 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: fun to play. Yeah, from the makers of crossfires Crowdstrikes. 108 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 3: But CrowdStrike there's I mean, like they're the stat that 109 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 3: I saw that I was like, oh right, because everything's 110 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 3: just consolidating. Is like they handle like these IT services 111 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 3: for like five hundred and thirty eight of the top 112 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 3: one thousand companies. Yeah, so like yeah, that chunk of 113 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 3: like that kind of critical software going down, Yeah, will 114 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 3: cause a lot of chaos, unless you're like a Linux person, 115 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,359 Speaker 3: and then which case you were fucking laughing because you're like, bro, 116 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 3: I'm on Linux. 117 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: Fuck that. 118 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 2: I think it's the range of things that went down 119 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 2: that shocks people because it's like, okay, flights got grounded. Also, 120 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 2: when we tried to buy coffee at Starbucks, their point 121 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 2: of sales software was dead because of CrowdStrike. And then 122 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 2: also it's like a whole range of things across all society. 123 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 2: Nine to one one service went down for some people 124 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 2: for a while. 125 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, hospital, it's like, oh so this all runs. 126 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 2: It's like, hey, it all runs on a computer somewhere, 127 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 2: and if those computers are running Windows, and if they're 128 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 2: using CrowdStrike to do whatever CrowdStrike does, I apologize audience, 129 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 2: I still don't know. Then, Yeah, they pushed out that 130 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 2: updated brick the computer. They could not simply push out 131 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 2: another update because the only way to fix it was 132 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 2: to like manually install and delete a file because your 133 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 2: the computers were stuck in a boot loop. Yeah, yeah, 134 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 2: so they couldn't just push out so yeah, but one 135 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 2: I don't know, one string of code crippled much of 136 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 2: the world's economy instantly. 137 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: The solution was ultimately the solution to all tech problems, 138 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: which is just like restart throwing on the ground. Yeah, 139 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: throw it on the ground. 140 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 3: Well, because like the one version was like you'd have 141 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 3: to go into every individual computer and like take this 142 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 3: file out, which is like we do it. 143 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like that's this. 144 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 3: You can't just do this over the waves, or at 145 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 3: least at the time I at last, I was like 146 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 3: looking for videos. I'm like, please explain to me, like 147 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 3: I don't know what a computer is, what the fuck. 148 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: Is going on? And I still I came away with 149 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: a very vague understanding. Yeah, but it does feel like 150 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: this becomes more and more possible the more we turn 151 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: everything over to the machines and we're just like, yeah, 152 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,679 Speaker 1: they got it. We don't need humans on the ground 153 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: doing you know, local deployments. That then if those work 154 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: get deployed two more places, it's. 155 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 3: Yeah or yeah, yeah, or shout out to the I 156 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 3: don't want to date my software crowd because they also 157 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 3: may have like just inadvertently gotten around things too. 158 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, some of the like anecdotal stuff I heard in 159 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: the early days was or in the early hours, I 160 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: guess was that the airlines that were actually functioning were 161 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: the non major carriers, and so it could be a 162 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: situation where like CrowdStrike is the expensive, higher end option 163 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: that like sells for millions and millions of dollars that 164 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 1: only a major corporation can eat, and so they got fucked. 165 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 3: But oh yeah, our services we go through cloud clown. 166 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: I think it's it's affordable. But yeah, we didn't have 167 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: any problems the cloud cloud clown. What is something you 168 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 1: think is underrated?

The never ending election cycle, though, 266 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 3: is not just overrated, it's detrimental, I think, to the 267 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 3: entire country to drag shit out like this and have 268 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 3: every like, all the attention go on this thing that 269 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 3: really doesn't bring about a lot of change, I mean, 270 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 3: depending on who's policies are enacted.

Her run is being covered in the mainstream media, 747 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: specifically a series of headlines that are kind of disparaging 748 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 1: the idea of a black woman running for president, But 749 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: since they put a question mark at the end of 750 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: the headline, it's okay, seems to be the logic in Newsweek, 751 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: is America ready for a black woman president? Question mark? 752 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:37,000 Speaker 1: The conversation Race, Gender and Politics.

Question mark? Why a leading congressman 757 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 1: isn't sure? 758 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 3: You know, she's also half South Asian, right, But it's 759 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 3: so funny to see Democrats also push that because like 760 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 3: they're trying to really pitch her as this person too 761 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 3: when she's biracial, which is very interesting to see also, But. 762 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, are they ready for this black woman? 763 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 3: I mean, I see, I understand like questioning that, but 764 00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 3: that has to be more of an investigation into the 765 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 3: white supremacy that like presides over the entirety of American thinking, 766 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 3: versus like this shit, which is like I don't know 767 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 3: like a black lady.

And and it's insanity that we 778 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 9: talk about race as much as we do in this country. 779 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:53,919 Speaker 9: I mean, it's just so sad. It's so sad that 780 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 9: that is, like even and why does that enter into everything? 781 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 9: I mean, I know why, but you know what I mean, 782 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 9: it's like who gives a shit? 783 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 1: You know?

The the idea of the president being an old 786 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: white guy is very deeply rooted in how America thinks 787 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 1: about the job, both on the right end on the left, 788 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 1: and a big part of that I don't know, I 789 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 1: don't know if we can say the problem is caused 790 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 1: by or if it's reflected by but you know, Hollywood 791 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: liberalism certainly is in lockstep with this trend. The Washington 792 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,439 Speaker 1: Post in twenty twenty publisher report finding that the vast 793 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 1: majority of mainstream movies have portrayed the president as a straight, 794 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: CIS white male, which that's obviously been the case in 795 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,840 Speaker 1: real life as well. But literally anything can happen in 796 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: a movie. But you know, one of these movies that 797 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 1: made the president a straight white CIS male had aliens 798 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,279 Speaker 1: being taken out by a floppy disc, you know, like 799 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 1: literally a floppy disc that they uploaded on somehow the 800 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:09,439 Speaker 1: fucking alien ship had a slot for a floppy disc. 801 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 1: But in examining one hundred and forty eight presidential depictions 802 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 1: in movies since nineteen thirty two, they found that one 803 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,399 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty three out of one hundred and forty 804 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:22,400 Speaker 1: eight movie character presidents were white men. And they found 805 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: precisely zero examples of women of color playing fictional presidents. 806 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,479 Speaker 1: That's fucking bonkered. Like other twenty five characters who didn't 807 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:35,359 Speaker 1: fall into the like straight white guy category, sixteen more 808 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: people of color thirteen were black two where hispanic one 809 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 1: was Asian. The remaining nine characters were white women. And 810 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 1: there were yeah, no women of color playing fictional presidents. 811 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 3: But yeah, it's a I mean, it's a it's a 812 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,800 Speaker 3: reflect I don't know's. I can't say this is caused 813 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 3: by Hollywood. This is I mean, like, this is the 814 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 3: momentum of American culture. Is too is to box people 815 00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 3: out that aren't white CIS men in terms of like 816 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 3: who can actually lead. Obviously other people are able to 817 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 3: rise to those heights, but yeah, I think maybe what 818 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 3: it does though, too, is it reinforces this sort of 819 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 3: cultural racist momentum that we have by always being like, yeah, 820 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 3: I mean like it's probably a white guy, right, Like 821 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 3: that's what the president has to be, so we can 822 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,319 Speaker 3: feel okay about it. And if it's a black guy 823 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 3: as a president means the world is ending in a movie, 824 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,760 Speaker 3: or there's a disaster happening. 825 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, like Deep Impact or Danny Glover in twenty twelve 826 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: or Jamie Fox and White House Down, like those are 827 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,080 Speaker 1: the types of movies where the president is allowed to 828 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 1: be black or twenty four you know, where there's a 829 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: different terrorist attack every like twenty five minutes. But just 830 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 1: in general, both voting and in movies, the idea of 831 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: a woman president seems to cause some problems for people. 832 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 1: The first movie to introduce this idea was nineteen sixty 833 00:43:54,480 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: five's Kisses for My President, Lot My President.

Just something you said, 1013 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 1: Chris that like, yes, this idea of there's a lot 1014 00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:11,400 Speaker 1: of like tropes you grow up thinking are true because 1015 00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:14,560 Speaker 1: you see them in movies, and you know one of 1016 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,400 Speaker 1: them that like other people are stupid, or that the 1017 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:20,840 Speaker 1: vast majority of people are stupid turns out not to 1018 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 1: be true. Like, the more you learn about the world, 1019 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 1: the more you're like, no, they're just like a lot 1020 00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people that get written off are just people. 1021 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:34,839 Speaker 1: The more you read and learn about the world, the 1022 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:41,120 Speaker 1: more it becomes clear that the one like theory that 1023 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: you always see when in movies and when you're a kid, 1024 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,600 Speaker 1: that there is a small group of white guys who 1025 00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 1: make all the decisions together and freeze everyone else out, 1026 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:53,400 Speaker 1: that one is like it seems like the most far fetched. 1027 00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 1: That's the one, that's the one that we've been right 1028 00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 1: about all along. Like the wealthiest one percent of the 1029 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:04,720 Speaker 1: global population, it was just reported accumulated forty two trillion 1030 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 1: dollars in the past ten years. Like they're getting so 1031 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:13,880 Speaker 1: much richer, so much faster, Like in the ten years 1032 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 1: since we started talking about the one percent being a problem, 1033 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:23,400 Speaker 1: they've gotten so much richer, so much faster, and. 1034 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 9: That's why it's hard to get out of bed in 1035 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:26,600 Speaker 9: the morning. I mean, honestly, it's like, you know, it 1036 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:30,280 Speaker 9: seems overwhelming, right, but I just like made a deal 1037 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:31,120 Speaker 9: with myself. 1038 00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 1: It's crazy.
