1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,280 Speaker 1: So, folks, you may be noticing that for some of 2 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: our classics, recently we've been airing some of our favorite interviews, 3 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,480 Speaker 1: and this is by far one of the most unhinged 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: interviews we ever put to air. We are we're actually, 5 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:19,640 Speaker 1: in real life, good friends with a guy named Lucky Yates, 6 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: who you may recognize from television programs like Archer. That's right, 7 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: he is the voice of the citister Dr Krieger. Is 8 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: he sinister? He's a little He's mildly sinister, um and 9 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 1: hilarious and also the founder of some kind of religion 10 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: involving penguins, so dodos. So yeah. So behind the scenes, 11 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,480 Speaker 1: behind the scenes, Lucky reached out to us and said, hey, 12 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: I I did your show. We both live in Atlanta, 13 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: and I had known him for a while in different 14 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: comedy circles, and he came to us with a weird 15 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: pitch and he said, guys, just put me on this show. 16 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: I love everything you talk about and explore. And then 17 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,119 Speaker 1: we said, well, hey, what do you want to talk about? 18 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: And he said, I don't care. I just want to 19 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: hang out with you. So these are the results. Yeah, 20 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: I think there might be a fun diversion into marijuana 21 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,559 Speaker 1: law and all of that kind of stuff. A little 22 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 1: bit of something for everybody.

You still made it here. 34 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: You didn't make it a lovely uber driver in a 35 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,399 Speaker 1: van with one of those doors where when you touch 36 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: it it opens with this bionic you never know how 37 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: hard to push it. You know, that's freaking out. Let 38 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: them do it because there a DVD system in the 39 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: back you could watch like Miana or something, you know, 40 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: but the windshield was cracked. You know what's weird about 41 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,679 Speaker 1: this is everybody listening right now is probably thinking what 42 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: is this episode gonna be about. I mean, if they 43 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: didn't read the title for the show, they're thinking, what 44 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: are they going to talk about? DVDs? Is this a 45 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: car conspiracy? Is this It might be Because here's the thing, 46 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: Leads and Joe Wyn, we are doing a very special episode, 47 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: something a little bit different. This is not about just 48 00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: one topic. This is about multiple things, and we're maybe 49 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: going to be surprised ourselves in the course of this episode. 50 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 1: And as every fan of UFO Disclosure has always wanted 51 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: to hear someone say, we are not alone today, we 52 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: are joined by let's what what should we call him? 53 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: A local, local luminary.

Yes, he he uses his 56 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: voice very much like an instrument that you would find 57 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: in an orchestra. Although I'm not a singer. Please let's 58 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: not get into that again. You know, we can have 59 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: we can play a guessing game, but people have probably 60 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: already read the titles. That's just what we do. That's 61 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: what we do. We're tap dancers. But who do who 62 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: do we have?

So like he was with some background for 71 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: people who are thinking, this voice is so familiar, I 72 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: kind of know that voice if they watch Archer television 73 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: show now on f x X. We used to be 74 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: on Straight Up f X Uh play Dr Krieger. Uh, 75 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: you know what, I don't know f X extra, I 76 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: don't know what. I don't know. Sex here is it 77 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: a little like yeah, I don't know, I don't think 78 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: so it's always sunny, sexy, sexy show. Well, you know 79 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: they have their moments. Well, I do know that during 80 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: the days of bootlegging and cornmash distilleries, the x IS 81 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: would show us how many times something had been process 82 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: or distinct, right, so double maybe it's just more and 83 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: more potent that very well could be, although I don't 84 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: know that the exacts over at x X at f 85 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: x X look that deeply into the bootlegger history of 86 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: our nation. When thinking of a good title for their 87 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: extra where they were going to chuck the stuff they 88 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: didn't really want to give a lot of commercial dollars to. 89 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: That's not really true, true. I don't know how it 90 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: works in TV. I really don't. I'm happy to be 91 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: on it. I'm yeah. I am happy to imagine a 92 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: world where studio exects say we're going to base our 93 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: decisions on a nineteen twenties era bootlegging history. We were 94 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: talking earlier. You actually listened to the to this show. Yeah, 95 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,119 Speaker 1: I listened to it all the time, and you caught 96 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: the last episode moving to Mars One. Loved it. It's insane. 97 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: We'll never get there. Humanity will never make it that 98 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 1: far off this planet. Are you kidding me? We'll destroy 99 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: ourselves first. And you brought up a really great point 100 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: off you said, why should we why should we move 101 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: to marsh Why wouldn't we go to the moon. It's 102 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: the three days away by capsule. You know, we can 103 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: build an elevator there kind of you know, why would 104 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: we go to six months away on a planet full 105 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: of zero resources except maybe some ice up top. Yeah, 106 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: so true. And we've already been to the moon right 107 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: several times. Hence, as we're going back, the VP's in 108 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: charge of space. Now he's in charge of I wouldn't 109 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: be the mayor of Space, of the king of Space. Um. 110 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: And buzz Aldron doesn't seem too pleased about it. We 111 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: see that that that thing where he was making some faces. Yeah, well, 112 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: buzz aldrons at that point where he can just go 113 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: anywhere and say whatever he wants, because you know, he's 114 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: been to the moon, right, what are you gonna what 115 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: are you gonna say? I know it doesn't make him 116 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: an automatic authority on everything, But if I were somewhere 117 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 1: and buzz Aldron came in and said, um, I it 118 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: doesn't matter, it could be a negligible thing. If he 119 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,239 Speaker 1: came in it was like, I think that you're wrong, 120 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: and tigers aren't the coolest animals and EMUs are better. 121 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: And I was like, well that's your opinion, And he 122 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: said I went to the Moon. I would be like, okay, yeah, 123 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: you stood on the moon and looked back down on 124 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: the Earth. Because he moves like way cooler. I thought 125 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: the moon landing was shot by Stanley Kubrick on a 126 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: sound stage. Yeah, am I face what? We had to 127 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: really get the Russians and the space race apparently, so yeah, 128 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: we all, yeah, we could do an episode on the 129 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: Stanley Kubrick thing. Is surprising, but yeah, it is true 130 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: that you can look. You can, if you grab a 131 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: nice enough telescope, you can look on the Moon and 132 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: see like evidence of stuff we've left there yet the Moon. 133 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: Why don't we just go back up there and keep 134 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: littering it and built some stuff hotel and clean it 135 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: up a little bit too, because you know, no littering, right, No, no, please, 136 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: Well we've already too late. Somewhere there's a native moon 137 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: person cry in a single tier on a Moon TV commercial. 138 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: That's the nineteen seventies joke. I just can't wait for 139 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: Moon tourism and we'll really mess up the joint, you know. 140 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: I mean. Well, and you guys are catching some hell 141 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: based on that episode, are you not? Well? This is true. 142 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: We actually just got really really very intelligently worded takedown 143 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: of the episode from a listener named uh nobody's the 144 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: last names. It's an awesome one. Washington Felder, Yes, Mr 145 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: Washing Felder, and he says he really interested in to 146 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: the show, but the recent episode about Martian colonies was 147 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: so cringe worthy. I had to force myself to listen 148 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: to the whole thing. And we don't want you guys 149 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: have to force yourself to do anything. We want you 150 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: to do it. You know, dress when listening to the 151 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: biggest problem is that your guest, while I am sure 152 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: he's knowledgeable about many various things, so completely ignorant of economics. Unfortunately, 153 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: his ignorance taints the whole episode and leads him down 154 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 1: the path of envisioning a top down stay just planned 155 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: totalitarian surveillance state. Now, I have to say, this is 156 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: reminiscent of conversations we had before doing the interview. Um 157 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: and you know, communism came up a couple of times 158 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: in the interview. I think the thing that this listener 159 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: maybe is is not appreciating is that this was in 160 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: fact a thought experiments. You know, it was all very 161 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: like hypothetical and an interesting way of like how would 162 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: we restart from scratch? And you use the word tracy, 163 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,599 Speaker 1: the idea of putting all your faith into this ultimately 164 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: man made thing that kind of goes on its own, 165 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: but we programmed it did not, So you know, it's 166 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 1: like he he seems to really believe that if we 167 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,719 Speaker 1: let a I run the show, there will be no inequality. Well, 168 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: that's the problem. We outside of science fiction, we have 169 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: literally no real world proof or idea or precedent for 170 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: what would happen. We have. We have what auties that 171 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: can parallel park. Google has a car that manages to 172 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: stay out of accidents, is doing pretty well, and a 173 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: lot of people believe autonomous vehicles are going to be 174 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: the wave of the future. But that's not the same 175 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: thing as saying an artificial intelligence should run a society 176 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: that is already eliminating any margin of error. Have you 177 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: not seen Space Odyssey? I mean, you know machines, when 178 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: you give them too much power, they turn on you 179 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: and they sing creepy songs and monotone voices and they 180 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: won't open the airlock. That's what happens. That's where we're headed. Well, 181 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: eventually they see humans as the virus that is ruining 182 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: the utopia for which they were programmed to create, and 183 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: they start knocking usaw. The robot revolutions coming one way 184 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: or the other. The question is which way are we? 185 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: Is that the way humans are really going out, or 186 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: are we gonna knock ourselves out of the because we're 187 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: going to become them? Right? That's that's at least trust 188 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: is that we and man that is Look, I hit fifty. 189 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: I become fifty years old in October, and so I 190 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: figure I've got maybe another fifty left. Given today's modern 191 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: medical science optimistic you look good if at that point 192 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: we are able to download ourselves my consciousness and sign 193 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: me up first guy in line, I don't care if 194 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm hacked. I just want to get into that world 195 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,559 Speaker 1: and just see. And we've seen the latest season in 196 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 1: Black Mirror. No man, that really couldn't make it past 197 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: the initial pig screwing. There's such a brilliant episode. There's 198 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: one in particular that's actually probably the most upbeat of 199 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: all the episodes of the entire series. It's called San Junipero, 200 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: and it deals with, without any spoilers at all, something 201 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: along the lines of what you're talking, so we get 202 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: dinged for even I accidentally spoiled lost for somebody a 203 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 1: show that's like, yeah, so we we've kind of like 204 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 1: stuck with a five year cut off. Anyway, you should 205 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: watch if you have time. So we want to thank 206 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: everybody for their opinions. Keep us honest. We do have 207 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: a couple of emails that will read on a separate 208 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: episode regarding this. But I think there's a really good 209 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: point that uh lucky here may, which is, you know, 210 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: are we be cartoonishly optimistic about going to Mars? I 211 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 1: think so? Have you have you looked at the math? 212 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: It's insane? Yeah, we can. There's no way. The best 213 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: we could hope for us to create some sort of 214 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 1: penal colony up there, you know. And yeah, you knows 215 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 1: the year like Georgia was once upon a time penal colony, 216 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: wasn't it. Yes, yeah, And so like just send the 217 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: bad ones up there. May if they build something great, 218 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: eventually we can send up some other forces to take 219 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: down the prisoners and we'll just absorb the stuff that 220 00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: they've built. Are awful up the you know, I mean, 221 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: all of every organism is awful. Every organism is fighting 222 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: for its dominance in this crazy universe of ours, and 223 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 1: so like, into you want to build something, don't try 224 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,199 Speaker 1: to send nice people up there. To do it, but 225 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna turn on each other anyway, you know, Bill 226 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: and Mary Jane are gonna be doing it, and then 227 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: Roderick is gonna enter the picture, and then all hell's 228 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: gonna break loose. And we only got twenty people up 229 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: there anyway, and now they're all dead because Roderick got piste. Yeah. 230 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: He uh, we really should have screened him, you know 231 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: what I mean. He just didn't like, he didn't answer 232 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: the questions like how are they also how how will 233 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: people be screened? Will we be in a situation where 234 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: the planet there are ecosystems collapsing? Right, like if a 235 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: kid born today, If not, then maybe when they have children, 236 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: those kids are never going to eat a wild fish, 237 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: right or something? Right? And even not even Alaskan saki, well, 238 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: I mean farm raised. Maybe that's a good one though, right, 239 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: that's like the premium fish. Yeah, you're open. We might 240 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 1: say that slapia thing is apparently really disgusting, and a 241 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: lot of calamaria is actually pig intestines. I've heard that too, 242 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: were thinking it's calamar that's the best thing. I've also 243 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: heard that scallops sometimes they're just pressed whitefish. They cut 244 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: them out with a cookie cutter, and it's just like 245 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: crappy like white fish that they put in the shape 246 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: of the scalop. There's so many people on the planet, 247 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: everything has to be a lie, else we just go 248 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: insane and rip each other to shreds. That's true. We 249 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: have to have that illusion of what there was that 250 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: old quotation that was every uh, every every civilization is 251 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: seven missed meals away from anarchy. Like if nobody eats 252 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: for a week, then have you seen lay miss Come on, 253 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: actually read the book a little gavroche. I mean, I've 254 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: actually never seen the show, but I have listened to 255 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: that soundtrack eight times, so you kind of you know 256 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: the theater. Yeah, I remember history. That's a good show. 257 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: I've been to Madame two solids wax museum. Uh yeah, 258 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: a lot of sponsor of this show. Oh what, Yes, 259 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: we'd just beat I would love to have her as 260 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: she's surely dead. That's just a wax sculpture of her. Actually, 261 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: I think she's in the museum, like there is a 262 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: sculpture sculpture of her. Yeah. It's like if you're a 263 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: real estate agent, you have a nice house, you know. 264 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: That's a good point. That would be a perfect sponsor 265 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: for this show. Is that what the one in New 266 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: York not long ago? It was a lot of fun. 267 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: It's fun. I'm a kid. I have a six year 268 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: old and she loved it. And as soon as you leave, 269 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: you just want you. You're like, why don't I have 270 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: a wax great image of myself and wax. It's so 271 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: weird walking up to them because they really do look 272 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: like living, breathing human beings that at any second that 273 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: could turn to you and go boot and freak you out, 274 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: And that that sort of situation that Uncounty Valley might 275 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: be closer than we think because you know you mentioned 276 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: medical technology progressing. Um, I think that's realistic. You know, 277 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: we get we hear a lot about futurism, and people say, oh, 278 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: Alan Kurzweil is uh deluding himself when he says we're 279 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: going to discover these different forms of immortality. Something like 280 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: it is happening. But I think before that will have increasingly, um, 281 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:39,359 Speaker 1: we'll have androids and artificial artificial beings that cleave increasingly 282 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: closer to what is human. Like in Japan, where there 283 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: are dozens dare I say, almost hundreds of scientists who 284 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: are saying, let's build a very specific lifelike thing. And 285 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: it's almost always creepy. It's always some guys like the 286 00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: perfect woman, she can feel pain and wown's out of here. 287 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: Very strange. We're some rambling fools because we haven't even 288 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: gotten to the topics we discussed and agreed upon. I know, 289 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Mike in the ramble, but let's let's ramble 290 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: down this road over here. Yeah, let's do the let's 291 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: do that thing they tell you to do in technical 292 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: writing presentations. See what you're going to talk about, to 293 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: talk about it, to tell people what you talked about. Right, 294 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: have you ever heard that it's it's it's the old 295 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 1: filling time trick. Well, it's it's it's said it's some guidelines, right, Okay, So, 296 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 1: uh we are we wanted to explore some of the 297 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: following things today. We wanted to explore some topics we 298 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: talked about off air, uh, cloning, aliens, magic, marijuana, legalization, 299 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:58,719 Speaker 1: and the extinction possibly alleged Western bar of the Dodo, 300 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 1: which is something we didn't know about until until you 301 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: told us about it. They're still out there, man, you 302 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 1: think so? No, I mean maybe there's some sort of 303 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: version of it maybe on some you know, they were 304 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: they were concentrated on this one little tiny island of Mauritius. Uh, 305 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: you know, until humans came along, and then they were 306 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: there for millions of years and didn't need to evolve 307 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: or devolved to get rid of their wings. There's no competition, 308 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: So what's the point. Yeah, there was, there were no 309 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: mammals on the island. People started showing up in the 310 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: sixteenth century, and then we brought along with us not 311 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 1: only our clubs and our appetites, but also boars and 312 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: dogs and rats and all things that ate these ground 313 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: dwellers eggs, and so we knocked like within a hundred 314 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 1: years they were gone. Now I'm into the idea that perhaps, yeah, 315 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: I'm sure not all dodos stayed on Mauritius. That the 316 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 1: sailors who took a liking to these screwy birds through 317 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: them on ships and brought them to other you know, 318 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: ports and all that kind of stuff to show them off, 319 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: and maybe a couple of them got loose and everything. 320 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: But there are some really yeah, questionable videos out there 321 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: Dodos running around, and it's very very obvious that these 322 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 1: videos I don't know. They don't look too legit, but 323 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 1: I love the idea that maybe maybe you know they're 324 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: ground dwellers. They were in thick jungles most of the 325 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: time that you know, I mean, you guys did Cryptid's 326 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 1: not too long ago. You know. If the big Foot 327 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 1: can hide, dodos certainly. Oh man, they are hideous, though, 328 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: do you what do? I think? They're amazing? They look 329 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: like really like dinosaurs that just like left, Yeah we 330 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: left around. These guys know that I'm I'm somewhat terrified 331 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 1: of birds. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they just I don't like 332 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:57,679 Speaker 1: their I don't like their little creepy movements. And that's 333 00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: what it is. That's what it is. I'm not crazy 334 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: about lizards either. I think that might be you're only 335 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: safe because of the size difference. Yeah yeah, no. My 336 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: my cat too, Will will like murder birds and like 337 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: bring them home, and I don't even like to mess 338 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: with them when they're dead. Have you ever experienced the 339 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: murder bird like north the Northeast murder bird is No, 340 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 1: there's not. I have a nightmare sometimes that there are 341 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: birds under my covers, Like, oh, that's true, don't none 342 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 1: of it. You've been doing that. What yes, you you 343 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: should have given me were creep Well, fine, I am 344 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 1: what I am, and get out of my life, out 345 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 1: of my head. His cockat deals need somewhere to go 346 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: at night. We'll give you. Because I had a period. 347 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: I had a period of bird bird love. I guess 348 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: when I was younger. I had a cockat deal. Yeah, 349 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: bird like bird tolerance. I had a cockat deal and 350 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: it was said my sho was pictures of me as 351 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,199 Speaker 1: a kid. But then I turned back that corner of 352 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: bird hate, and I didn't even want to touch the cocks. 353 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: So you don't want you don't want there to be 354 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,719 Speaker 1: some sort of relic population of dode, which I I agree, 355 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: which very improbable. We have to have birds. I don't 356 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 1: really believe that. You guys don't write so so lucky. 357 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: Uh you sent us this video when you were like 358 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: maybe still alive somewhere, and I was thinking of all 359 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: the animals that could survive with the relic population Dodos, 360 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: because this isn't roughly in the same area of the 361 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: world where we still see a lot of people swearing 362 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,920 Speaker 1: that they saw Tasmanian tigers you know, which are which 363 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: are big creatures and it's very very different. Like I know, 364 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: technically it would be more difficult for those to survive 365 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 1: just because of their size and their range, but they 366 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,159 Speaker 1: just seem so much more well prepared for life than 367 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: a Dodo, and a Dodo being a three ft tall 368 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 1: ground birds, you know what I mean. Like if they're 369 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: out there, we're gonna see them, you know what I mean. 370 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: And yeah, they got to come out for food sometime. 371 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: They can't just eat in the forests. It was shellfish 372 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: for a part of their diet too. Uh. Yeah, I 373 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: want there to be Dodo's really bad. I look forward 374 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: to perhaps. I think they recently discovered some DNA evidence 375 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: of the Dodo. You know, they had none, you know, 376 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 1: it's just some scraps of bones and all that kind 377 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,120 Speaker 1: of stuff, and people have stayed on it for years 378 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,679 Speaker 1: and years, and just recently in the somewhere in the 379 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: two thousands, they discovered something with enough DNA evidence that 380 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: you know, it's like the mammoth where you sort of 381 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:37,199 Speaker 1: hope that they can read it's a ground pigeon, is 382 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: the Dodo. It's in the pigeon family. So if we 383 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: can sort of re engineer the Dodo birds, well for 384 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: what it's worth one in four Brits believe the Dodo 385 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: still exists, according to a study from the World Wildlife 386 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: federationis people and you know, once upon a time the 387 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: sun never said on the British Empire. That's true, that 388 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: is true. Anybody you know? Also, who knows? Maybe the 389 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:07,880 Speaker 1: Brits are hiding secret Dodos. Maybe there's that I'm gonna 390 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: bounce off you. What if there is some form of 391 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:17,719 Speaker 1: dimensional travel of which the Sasquatch is a member of. 392 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: Let's say let's say that once upon a time the 393 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: unicorns figured out how to slip through dimensions, and then 394 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: when the big Foot was sort of about to get extinct, 395 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: the unicorns thought, I'm gonna save that big Foot got 396 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: him to the other. Now it's then it was the Dodo. 397 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: And then every once in a while they slipped back 398 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: through like they on your Bigfoot episode. They're like Bigfoot 399 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: coming like they waved the large as a form of 400 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 1: weird they that if you can be seen but then disappear, 401 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 1: it was, yeah, if you're gonna go down the rabbit hole, 402 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: go deep. What that's like. We don't know that you 403 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: can't slip through dimensions. We don't know just because we 404 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: can't do it and haven't seen any real evity. It's 405 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: true because science does indicate that there are dimensions that 406 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 1: the average person doesn't interact with in a conscious way. 407 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: You know, we can't like meat beings. Right, There's like 408 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 1: got to be more going I mean, there's so much 409 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: more going on than our eyeballs can see. You're perceive, 410 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So like, yeah, who knows. 411 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: We still haven't figured out death, and we've been trying 412 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: to crack that nut for a long time. So do 413 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: you guys ever wonder if you're being observed from some 414 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 1: higher dimensional We are there right there by the window, 415 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: a bunch of creeps with know but yes, I'm sorry 416 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:42,439 Speaker 1: to interrupt, Yeah I'm making light. But sure that some 417 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: sort of cosmic overlord. I don't I don't believe in God, 418 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 1: but like I get that sense, right, Like, there's guy, 419 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 1: there's something I don't know what it is. Yeah, even 420 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: if it's just a population of other intelligent beings that 421 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 1: exist on you know, higher dimensional level that are watching 422 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: this idiot breed of ape ruined our planet, maybe, but 423 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 1: it just be it makes me wonder if that, if 424 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: if that didn't in fact exist, if uh, peering into 425 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: whatever this dimension is would even be possible. Well, if 426 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: there's if there is a supersymmetry to consciousness, then they 427 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: would probably enjoy watching a train wreck. Yeah so, I 428 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: mean because you can see the whole thing right, Like, essentially, 429 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: time would be a flat circle. Where's my can of 430 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: lone Star? Where's my terrible sequel? Okay, I still believe 431 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: um so, speaking of sequels and brilliant segues, will be 432 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: right back after a word from our sponsor, and we 433 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: have returned. I proposed that we, uh we shift to 434 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 1: something else, something that's been in the news lately. Yeah. 435 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: I saw this story not long after. I spit into 436 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: a little vial and mailed it off to a company 437 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: called ancestry dot com. And they're not a sponsor, so 438 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna trash him a little bit. It 439 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: was the Street. First of all, they were very nice. 440 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 1: They let it. It It was for another show that I 441 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:19,919 Speaker 1: worked on called The Stuff of Life, and we had 442 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: an episode was called Wired. Was about the connection between 443 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,239 Speaker 1: human beings on the planet, whether it's electronic or you know, uh, 444 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 1: what's the word genetic, or you know, various ancestors, etcetera. 445 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: And so we all took the tests and we got 446 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: the results back and it was so underwhelming. It was 447 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: like I'm Scandinavian or something, and it was just like 448 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: I was expecting more granular detail in there. So it 449 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: was already let down there. Then love and behold. I 450 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: stumble upon this headline genealogy a warning to Ancestry customers 451 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 1: who can sent to use DNA services, And it's basically 452 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 1: about how they have partnered with a biotech company called 453 00:26:54,480 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 1: Calico that's owned by Google and uh, this partnership allow 454 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: Ancestry to make its customers DNA results um available to 455 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: other companies for research purposes. I want you know this 456 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: is a This is a serious rabbit hole. If we 457 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 1: want to go down it, which obviously we very much do, 458 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 1: we're already if you want to go to the depths? 459 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 1: Could they clone me without my consent? I want to 460 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: run into another me at the mall. One have the 461 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: whole chase and the whole man. I want it so bad. 462 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: For what reason would they collect your d NA? Like? 463 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 1: Are they starting a seed bank for humanity? Much like 464 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 1: the seed bank that's being flooded out? And where is 465 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: it noway Norway. Maybe they're just holding onto it until 466 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,239 Speaker 1: they can figure out something cool to do with it. 467 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 1: Let's populate Mars with workers like these guys that you 468 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: know they don't know. Yeah, Nord, thanks thanks for your 469 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,439 Speaker 1: worker up there, and we got another you digging up it. 470 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 1: I was underwhelmed to the point where I was like, 471 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 1: what is up something? Then like like it's like it 472 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 1: didn't feel like a real service, feel like a real service. 473 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,439 Speaker 1: And now I find this out and it's like, man, 474 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: you know, at first, you know, we already know where 475 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: our our data as being sold sold. They everything habitant. 476 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: Now it's our d n A. Granted I chose to 477 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: spit into that little vial, so that was my choice, 478 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: and it was free. You know, if they're really trying 479 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: to be super nefarious and get particular people's DNA, it's 480 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: easy to chase somebody down and get a glass after 481 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: they drank out of so like it's yeah, it sucks, 482 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: but but this is like fine print that I have 483 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: been sent to right, Like they have my studies, they 484 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: have my stuff. Well here's the thing, he's stuff. Here's 485 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: one thing we do know. Gene therapy they would use. 486 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: They would look through your code to find indicators of 487 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: preponderance or tendency for a genetic disease predisposition. And they 488 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: would say, well, it turns out that this person is 489 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: Scandinavia and making this up, I'm not trying to scare you, 490 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: has a higher um likelihood of developing what's something really weird? 491 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: Uh like, they can make it up. Super glaucoma. Super glaucoma. Yeah, 492 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 1: it's an epidemic in Scandinavia and um. And so they 493 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: would say, okay, well, now we have this this treatment 494 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: that we've patented that can address that thing for this 495 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 1: specific group of people, but we own it. You don't 496 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: get a part of it. That's the other thing that 497 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 1: got me because I'm so cheap, you guys. When I 498 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: learned about all the massive data collection, just electronic surveillance, 499 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: I I figured, okay, yeah, well what happens? And then 500 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: I learned that they were selling it and it wasn't 501 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 1: getting a cut. It was like, that is not cool, 502 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So here's here's the here's yeah, 503 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,719 Speaker 1: the gist of the fine print. This is from an 504 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: article UM that I just pulled up. It says, basically, 505 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 1: ancestry gets to use or distribute your DNA for any 506 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: research or commercial purpose it decides, and doesn't have to 507 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: pay you or your heirs. Ancestry takes this royalty free 508 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 1: license in perpetuity for all time and contribute the results 509 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: of your DNA tests anywhere in the world with any 510 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: technology that exists or will ever be invented. That's the 511 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: part I'm talking about, or will ever be invented, Like 512 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: that means they could clone me. Yeah, it's weird in 513 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: context when they give like in perpetuity and all the 514 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: known universe, like they go on, they're like, whoa what 515 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 1: the universe? I feel like I got got you guys? 516 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: Mean long? How long can a blood sample last? Do 517 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: you think? Or a saliva sample last? Well, you can 518 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: also be extracted or something. It's not a one and 519 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 1: done because you can cultivate it, so they can just 520 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: continue growing until they're ready to make it. I know 521 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: you're trying to make me feel better mad, but not 522 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: helping yourself in it. Yeah, it sucks. Don't do it. 523 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: Don't take my DNA into stuff with it. But what 524 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: are they really get? What are they gonna do that's 525 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: gonna screw up your life? So bad unless they like 526 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: planted on the on a crime scene, But why would 527 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: they do that. Don't make an enemy and whatever Google, 528 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: so they're they're not planting your DNA to murder. That's 529 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: the thing though, of a company like Google has this 530 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 1: kind of power report. What I wouldn't do is just 531 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 1: don't ever talk trash about Google or Alphabet. I just 532 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: did just ships sale. That rocket is launched. We're on 533 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: the way. No, it's not. Hey, don't feel bad. Yeah, 534 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: I mean, and if we lose you, we'll just get 535 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: the other version. Use my clones is the type of 536 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: thing that maybe one day they like got a clone 537 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: of you in a tank somewhere, and then you're like, 538 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: I'm dying of kidney failure. And then suddenly there's like, hey, 539 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: we have a kidney that's yours. You can buy it 540 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: from us because you signed this thing that said we 541 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: could happen it would come back to you if you 542 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: like grow another one. Yeah, so you're on a payment plan, 543 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: lay away away. The thing about clones in the basement 544 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: is you gotta be really careful about power fluctuations like 545 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 1: that can be a big deal just from you know, 546 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: from every everything he learned. Yeah, from everything I've learned, 547 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 1: while they're in the tank, I'm assuming they'll be in 548 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 1: some sort of tank that if power fluctuates between that, 549 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: then what might happen? Mutations will happen. Oh yeah, all 550 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: kinds of bad things could happen. You should know a 551 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: little thing or two about cloning. That's sort of a 552 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: thing like Carry, the comedy that Adam Read writes in 553 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: a script about such things. That's all I don't you 554 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: have a basement with tanks? I know? Oddly enough, even 555 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: though most of my Twitter followers think that I am, 556 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: in fact the cartoon scientists, it's remarkable to me that 557 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 1: people still people don't know the difference between the person 558 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: who voices like, right, this actual cartoon scientist that does 559 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: insane thing. Are you saying you don't have a holographic girlfriend? 560 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,959 Speaker 1: Really don't. Although last year a Dragon Con, there was 561 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: a guy who dressed his creaker and he had a 562 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: little mini uh projector with him, and he would stand 563 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: next to walls and he had a Mitsuko as her name, 564 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: and she would actually she could move like there was 565 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 1: like any jif form, and so she would move next 566 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,239 Speaker 1: to him and it was brilliant. It was like oh 567 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: so good. You got to respect the craft at that point, right. 568 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: It really incredible people are devoted costplayers Dragon Con cosplay 569 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: in particular, it is pretty. It's the bigs, the whole 570 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: point of that whole. It's a New York comic con 571 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: for the first time, and it was amazing, Like the rooms, 572 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 1: like the vendors got blew my mind, but like the 573 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: costume game was just not nearly San Diego is this 574 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:51,479 Speaker 1: gigantic TV and film trade draw and cosplays a tiny 575 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: little part of it. It's so strange to me with 576 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: with cosplay because there is something on a psychological level, 577 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 1: so a louriing and tempting to to become some other person, 578 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: you know, and at heart, like I know, sometimes people 579 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: can say, oh, that's that's silly, why are you doing this? 580 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: But at heart, it's the same compulsion that drives people 581 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: to change their identities permanently. Or I don't talk very 582 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 1: much about my personal life on this show, but I 583 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,760 Speaker 1: will confess something because it happened in the in the past. 584 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: I when I found out I usually wear um darker 585 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: color clothing. When I found out that I could take 586 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: a piece of just eight and a half by eleven 587 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: paper rolled up like this, stick it under the collar 588 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 1: of my shirt and be wearing all black. Then I 589 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 1: started impersonating a priest on Martha and I'm sorry. It 590 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:45,399 Speaker 1: was great. What did you do as people? People would 591 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 1: come up and talk to me? You know, what is 592 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 1: an easy way around all this tomfoolery is just go 593 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: online and get yourself with twenty five Uh yeah, yeah, yeah. 594 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: I wear my collar out in Paul like sometimes, and dude, 595 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: people want somebody to talk to as much of an 596 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,319 Speaker 1: atheist as I am, and I am a ranging one man. 597 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: People want some sort of religious place to go and 598 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: just dump all their junk onto. I liked it better 599 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: when you wear the eye patch. Yeah, the eye patch 600 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: is a different experiment. I walked up to after work 601 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: spot and Ben was wearing an eye patch, and you know, 602 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 1: Ben's a little bit of an intense figure sometimes regular guy. 603 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 1: So I up and go, hey, man, everything okay, And 604 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 1: you say I don't want to talk about it, and 605 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: I was like okay, and I like, I know when 606 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: to back off, and so I backed off. And this 607 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 1: other guy unrelated to the original group walked up and 608 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,879 Speaker 1: knows Ben's going off the eye patch. I don't want 609 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: to talk about it, and it I was like, I 610 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 1: really thought something was up, and then like later it 611 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,879 Speaker 1: turned out that he was just messing around with all 612 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: social experiment just to say what these fools will do 613 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 1: while I wear an eye patch. And I don't want 614 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: to talk about frenzy cause I don't know. I'm with you, 615 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: I don't know about I don't know about fools. But yeah, 616 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: it was say, oh gosh, man, rocketing eye patch. I 617 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: think it's disrespectful if your eyes work to do it permanently, 618 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: you know, because I was thinking, what if I run 619 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: into someone who actually has because you could tell a 620 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,439 Speaker 1: real eye patch versus a fake eye patch. The real 621 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 1: ones are obviously medical devices and they've got gauze and 622 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: stuff on them. You don't really see people walking around 623 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 1: with the black eye patch, but right, and so if 624 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 1: I ran, if I ran into that person, it would 625 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,800 Speaker 1: be like running into a genuine priest. What I'm dressed 626 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 1: as a priest, I would have to I don't know 627 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,320 Speaker 1: if I would just turn tail and try to disappear, 628 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,800 Speaker 1: or if I would try to see if my BS 629 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: skills were accurately claim you know, I'm in the internet, 630 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: uh minister and I saw people that might have needed 631 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: to reach out, and so I slapped on a little collar. Yeah, 632 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 1: pulled the Dave Chappelle thing. Just because I'm dressed this 633 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,959 Speaker 1: way does not make me a police. Oh boy, who 634 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I've derailed us a little bit. Let me 635 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,359 Speaker 1: reel it back. Yeah, okay, what if you ran into 636 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: your clone? If I ran into my clone, I would 637 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,879 Speaker 1: love it. I would The eye patch is the only 638 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 1: one that tells us who the real that's that's what 639 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 1: I need to do. Um. It's It's interesting because when 640 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:22,720 Speaker 1: we talk about the scientist cloning, they're actually some very 641 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: dangerous problems with the clones for some reason that we 642 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 1: don't understand, tend to be much less healthy. Like Dolly 643 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 1: the Sheep was just that that four lamb did not 644 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:35,720 Speaker 1: get a fair shake from the start. Can you believe 645 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 1: it's been since nine when Dolly the Sheep was Yeah, 646 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 1: I didn't even realize that was last century. I figured 647 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:47,720 Speaker 1: that was definitely. Wow. It feels like we haven't gotten 648 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 1: that far. That really stopped that unless a com it's 649 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: got warehouses full of us. There are theories about human 650 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,839 Speaker 1: cloning centers that are all over the Internet, and we've 651 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: been written to many times asking us to cover these things. 652 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: Why are why are you not? You need a man 653 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: in the field, that's the problem. Yeah, we need somebody 654 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 1: to go out there and try and infiltrate one of 655 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:21,280 Speaker 1: these things. You need Lucky Aids, slightly successful voice actor. 656 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: I want to clone myself. I want to want to 657 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 1: get off this money trade. And the thing is, if 658 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 1: we send a clone out, you know, it'll be a 659 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,239 Speaker 1: it will be a tragedy when something happens to them, 660 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 1: but it'll be a tragedy we originals can all experience together. 661 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 1: Thing this is when we get a clone of ourselves. 662 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: First of all, they're gonna be a baby, right, so 663 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 1: it's like, who knows if this baby is even gonna 664 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: live past six months, and it's still just gonna be 665 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 1: a baby. They'll just come out fully formed. We're not 666 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: there yet. We're not to venture Brothers where it's like 667 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: we've got these tanks and beds and all that kind 668 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,919 Speaker 1: of stuff. It's like, no, we're gonna have age. Acceleration 669 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 1: is a whole different. Yeah, it's the consciousness really that 670 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 1: we got to get out of our bodies. Making more 671 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: meat versions of ourselves is silly. If we are this 672 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: close to the singularity of melding with machinery, right, but 673 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,360 Speaker 1: I want to go. But that's the question. Would it 674 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 1: be just a copy of your consciousness? You know, it's 675 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 1: like that old Theseus's ship, right, the old idea that 676 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 1: if you slowly replace pieces of a ship over time, 677 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 1: still the same ship. Yeah, yeah, because you're calling it whatever. Yeah, 678 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: it's a completely different things. Sure, why not as long 679 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,360 Speaker 1: as you've got I mean, all we are is a 680 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,320 Speaker 1: bag of chemicals with memories, right, which are chemically induced. 681 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: So if you can keep those memories and keep building 682 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,360 Speaker 1: on them, which is the way at least our understanding 683 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: of how we work. Uh, sure, why not. It's just 684 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,839 Speaker 1: a different version of what we're already doing. It's just 685 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,959 Speaker 1: and you cooie if we get hit by a rock 686 00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: and you might not know, I mean you would know, 687 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 1: but it would be a relatively academic fact after that, 688 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 1: where you know, maybe in the future it would be 689 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: a fun fact that you tell your friends at parties. 690 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 1: You're like, you know, I used to be made out 691 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:15,319 Speaker 1: of like weird meat meat I had. A part of 692 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 1: me had to be cut off because I mangled it 693 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,760 Speaker 1: when I fell up my bicycle which reads those anymore? 694 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 1: Did you, guys ever read the comic that's available online, 695 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:29,240 Speaker 1: I think through existential comics. It was called The Machine, 696 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,839 Speaker 1: and it was all a thought experiment about this very 697 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 1: thing with a teleportation machine with every time you teleport, 698 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 1: you die, and another copy is created in the prestige. Yeah, 699 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 1: essentially the same thing. And in this story, I won't 700 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: toil it too much, but it's such a popular thing 701 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: because you can teleport anywhere and everyone's just doing it, 702 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 1: and everyone is just killing themselves and reconstituting themselves up right, like, like, 703 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: is there even a blip in the mind of the 704 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: clone that lets them know that they're a clone? In 705 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: subjective they're probably in subjective time. There probably wouldn't be 706 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: Ideally there wouldn't. We've talked about this before over over cocktails. 707 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: He sounds so classy. Yes, well, you know, it's just 708 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: what's just because this kind of thing where when you 709 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 1: had a few beverages, you can really go around around 710 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: stuff like this for a while. But to think of 711 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: the problem with that is we all. I don't know 712 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 1: about you, guys, but I always thought that I sounded 713 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: way smarter than I actually did. You know usually sound 714 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 1: about as smart as you are. I'm gonna choose to 715 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 1: interpret that as a compliment as it wasn't so. But 716 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,479 Speaker 1: in current let's say you could have a clone, right, okay, yeah, 717 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:43,759 Speaker 1: they could sort of accelerated it's age up to somewhere point. 718 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: Would you want to have one around? Let's say like, 719 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 1: oh no, Mike livers failing thanks to our conversations about 720 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 1: this very thing. Now I need my spare part. I 721 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 1: would keep the meat in a tank for spare part. Yeah, 722 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: you couldn't make it to me being downloaded. You wouldn't 723 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 1: even like, do I want to be friends with him? 724 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 1: And then you go like, by the way, I'm taking 725 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 1: your liver well, and you hear me, yeah, thanks o me, 726 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,400 Speaker 1: And then you start fighting about who, like who deserves 727 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 1: to live more? Is the original who is failing to 728 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: live more? Or does the improved clone deserve to live more? 729 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: Who knows everything? I think we should just I think 730 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: the answer that a lot of people will find is 731 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: maybe it's just easier to make organs. I don't know 732 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:32,359 Speaker 1: if it's more more difficult or if it's easier because 733 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 1: you have to build an entire support system to impersonate 734 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 1: the rest of the body. For that liver, there'd have 735 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 1: to be something like blood going through it. But in 736 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 1: theory that couldn't you do it like you know, chicken 737 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 1: McNuggets style where it was all on an assembly line. 738 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:48,880 Speaker 1: You could just make dozens of livers. Yeah, kind of 739 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: maybe exactly like times and such, kind of have like 740 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,439 Speaker 1: a selection, you know, like I don't know, Oh man, 741 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 1: I feel like that would be instantly used by nefarious billionaires. 742 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 1: Did you also, did you just read this study? Um, well, 743 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's studied. I'm not on this, 744 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 1: but there were rumors going around that, uh, people have 745 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: discovered transfusions of blood from young mice into old mice 746 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 1: improved their health. Real life vampire, we're talking right, this 747 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 1: is a real thing now in Silicon Valley on the 748 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: TV show it was there, But also in real life 749 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 1: of infusing young blood into that's ridiculous star and we 750 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 1: can constantly making new blood, right, We're not just using 751 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 1: the tank of blood we were born with, so we 752 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 1: don't have I don't know, I don't know for how 753 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 1: long How long does this attitude last blood it sounds 754 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: vigor for the rest of time, or does it after 755 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 1: a week. That's how gonna say. Imagine it's like taking 756 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:08,359 Speaker 1: a vitamin supplement or something or just get through you essentially. Yeah, yeah, 757 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:13,319 Speaker 1: battery Yeah. Well also, you know, Mace Witter, what if 758 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 1: it's just what if it's just like twenty minutes? You 759 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 1: know that's Uh? Is it worth it? Right? Thanks? College kid? 760 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 1: Don't life gave me twenty minutes? Uh? Did you guys 761 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 1: watch Silicon Valley this season? There's this whole, this whole 762 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 1: thing based on this where it's a guy who was 763 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: just employed with a salary to sit there for twenty 764 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:41,799 Speaker 1: minutes and infuse blood. It's based on character. Yeah, it's 765 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 1: based on actual Well I can give you some of 766 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 1: the background, you guys. So there's a this story got 767 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 1: reported in M I T. Technology Review. Uh. It is 768 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 1: being offered as an anti aging thing from a company 769 00:44:54,560 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 1: called Ambrosia Topi and oh for eight grand a pop, 770 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: they will uh yeah, they will inject you. I feel 771 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 1: like all four of us are so creepy by calling 772 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 1: it new blood, but that's what it is, young blood. 773 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,320 Speaker 1: Young boy looks like the Radiohead song We Suck young Blood. 774 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:22,680 Speaker 1: They were prescients, weren't they? So? Uh, the guy who 775 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:27,720 Speaker 1: started Jesse Karmazin said that within a month, most participants 776 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 1: see improvements from the one time infusion of a two 777 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: leader bag full of plasma. So uh. Several scientists say 778 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 1: his trial is so poorly designed it can't hope to 779 00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 1: provide evidence about the effects, and was also a pay 780 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:47,839 Speaker 1: to participate study that collected four point eight million from 781 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:55,840 Speaker 1: the participants that many people lined up Yeah wow, wow, 782 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,919 Speaker 1: you know, I want to see how this shakes out. 783 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 1: A lot of people are saying that a lot of 784 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 1: other experts are skeptical to say the least. But I 785 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,879 Speaker 1: have to ask if we assume it were like if 786 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 1: somehow it worked, which biologically at this point doesn't make sense. 787 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:16,200 Speaker 1: But but if it worked, what would be the point 788 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 1: where you would not do it? You know? Would it 789 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,399 Speaker 1: have to be like the time span is not enough, 790 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:24,319 Speaker 1: Would someone have to die? Would you be taking all 791 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 1: of someone's blood and then living a more healthy virile five. 792 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 1: It just strikes me as such a boogie thoughtless thing 793 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 1: to do. In the first place, we know blood donation 794 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:42,240 Speaker 1: centers are always in short supply, not enough people donate blood, 795 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 1: and we're just like scooping up all the blood that 796 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,919 Speaker 1: like dying children needs and just just like feel good 797 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 1: a little pep in myself. But imagine, imagine if you 798 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,479 Speaker 1: could make a living, like an actual living and pay 799 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 1: rent just by giving your blood away to these ultra 800 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:02,240 Speaker 1: rich humans. Would you do? But wouldn't you feel terrible 801 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 1: all the time? You'd just be a blood bag? Yeah, 802 00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,760 Speaker 1: you would literally be something. No, that's a terrible life. 803 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 1: That's not all. That's not all. That's cool though. You 804 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 1: could play some PlayStation you made all the time, like 805 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 1: about to pass out. You just cookie. Yeah, were just 806 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 1: cooking in an oculus rift and you're good to get. No, 807 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 1: what a terrible stop it people, It's awful, all right, 808 00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:32,720 Speaker 1: I'll admit that if I even really wanted to clone, 809 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 1: just like the idea of it. Yeah, of course, yeah, 810 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 1: of course I would. If I ran into another meal 811 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 1: at the mall, it would be the best. It would 812 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 1: be cool, like hopefully if they had similar personalities, which 813 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:47,360 Speaker 1: we don't know if they would, we don't know, we 814 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,880 Speaker 1: don't know. Right, there's the one. There's this one farmer 815 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 1: that had a beloved bull, and this bull would come 816 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 1: in and out of the house all the time, and 817 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,440 Speaker 1: the bull finally died and they went to like Korea 818 00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:59,839 Speaker 1: to have this thing cloned, and it came in at 819 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:03,080 Speaker 1: it out like, oh, it's just like old rab or whatever. 820 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:06,400 Speaker 1: The bulls and then the bull turned on them because 821 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:11,400 Speaker 1: clearly they've never seen science fiction. So the bull became 822 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 1: this horrible, crazy, rampaging bull that they had to put down. 823 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: And they should have been able to tell with the 824 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 1: mustache and all patch also, don't let bulls in the house. 825 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:28,040 Speaker 1: That is a bad one. Yeah, you got a bull, bullyard. 826 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 1: That's when people that's when people tell me on my 827 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: first day, told me on my first day starting here, 828 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,479 Speaker 1: should we we should we take a quick stop, hop 829 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 1: off the bull and take a sponsor break and then 830 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 1: hop back on. Sounds great and ride. So now our 831 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:57,279 Speaker 1: our soudan finds us arriving at something that Matt Noel 832 00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 1: and I had talked about a lot off air, which 833 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 1: is our earlier interview about disclosure with Stephen Greer Aliens. 834 00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:08,480 Speaker 1: This is one of the things you had mentioned off 835 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:10,719 Speaker 1: here too. I wanted to bring that up earlier and 836 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 1: tie to something we mentioned, this idea of being watched 837 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 1: by some force and the idea that they're sort of 838 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 1: watching us screw up our lives. And our planet in 839 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 1: our society. And we talked in the interview about if 840 00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:28,880 Speaker 1: these are extra dimensional creatures, do they have some purpose 841 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,719 Speaker 1: and interacting with us? Like are they here to help us? 842 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 1: Are they watched waiting to watch us burn ourselves to 843 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,440 Speaker 1: the ground so they can swoop in and do something 844 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,600 Speaker 1: with what we leave behind. I don't know. I think 845 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 1: that's that was one of my favorite parts of that discussion. 846 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 1: I'm always I'm always terrified with the quietly terrified. I 847 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:50,080 Speaker 1: would think a very like repressed British kind of terrified. 848 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 1: When I think about the physicist who say Stephen Hawkins 849 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:59,400 Speaker 1: is one famous example, but the physicist who say we 850 00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:03,040 Speaker 1: don't to meet extra terrestrials, why would they come all 851 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 1: this way if they were traveling, you know, according to 852 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 1: the dimensional rules we understand. And more even more disturbing, 853 00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 1: what if what if there are other civilizations? Are SINCHI 854 00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:18,840 Speaker 1: intelligent beings? They can hear all the signals we're trying 855 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 1: to put out and they're just not responding. Yeah, maybe 856 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:27,200 Speaker 1: they're just like no way, Yeah, And maybe they're hiding. 857 00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 1: Maybe they're hiding. Maybe we're collectively our species. Is that 858 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,880 Speaker 1: idiot in the horror movie who's like, hey, guys, I 859 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:39,840 Speaker 1: heard something weird in this house. I better go down there. 860 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 1: I'll be down the run up the stairs. See. I 861 00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 1: think we're just more in our infancy. If there are 862 00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 1: other intelligence spaces, baby, were nothing compared to the lifespan 863 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,759 Speaker 1: of a planet. I mean, we're in the middle of 864 00:50:56,200 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 1: how many times has there been a mass extinction them? 865 00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 1: We're in the middle of the sixth one right now. Yeah, okay, 866 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 1: so so five times before everything has been wiped out, 867 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 1: and so we're just the leaders at this one. Like 868 00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:12,920 Speaker 1: we have not been on this planet for that long 869 00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 1: as a species. Uh. I'm going to say evolution, because 870 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:20,319 Speaker 1: that's how it works. You know, we've evolved during just 871 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:22,840 Speaker 1: this small amount of time. Great, we have thumbs and 872 00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 1: big brain cavities. But my question to all that is 873 00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 1: that maybe there are and maybe you know, they're watching 874 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:31,839 Speaker 1: us and all that kind of stuff and don't want 875 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:35,240 Speaker 1: to have anything to do with us or our planets 876 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 1: set up. Maybe species can't evolved to such a state 877 00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 1: to even make it off a planet, you know what 878 00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: I mean, Like maybe the universal laws or whatever, just 879 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:50,440 Speaker 1: like why would we ever want to infect other places 880 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:54,719 Speaker 1: with you? I don't know I mean that the Earth 881 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:58,440 Speaker 1: is like an organism basically, uh, you know, and every 882 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,279 Speaker 1: creature on it is another organism that is fighting for 883 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,880 Speaker 1: space all that kind of stuff, and humans are really 884 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:08,000 Speaker 1: running wild on ours and you know, at some point 885 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:11,439 Speaker 1: we're going to throw good numbers of ourselves off one 886 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:14,480 Speaker 1: way or the other. And maybe that's just how life works, 887 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 1: uh in the universe, is that we can only get 888 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:21,719 Speaker 1: so far. Any species can only get so far before 889 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:24,360 Speaker 1: they just burn themselves out or throw themselves off the 890 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:27,279 Speaker 1: planet because they get too smart their own good. I 891 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 1: really like that you pointed that out, because the one 892 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,560 Speaker 1: of the things that we've explored in the past, which 893 00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:37,839 Speaker 1: is bothers people on existential level, is just what you said. 894 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,520 Speaker 1: It's a massive um. I guess I could say it's 895 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:43,200 Speaker 1: a massive pain in the ass I can say on 896 00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:46,240 Speaker 1: the air, right, yeah, Okay, Well, I think we've loosened 897 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:48,840 Speaker 1: the reins a little. That's true from the Mars interview. 898 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:51,880 Speaker 1: I forgot about that, yes, But the point is, you know, 899 00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:55,759 Speaker 1: it's it's a massive pain to take anything that's specifically 900 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:59,799 Speaker 1: adapted to living in this larger organism recreated to buy 901 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:03,160 Speaker 1: mint uh in a sustainable way, and then just put 902 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 1: it out in glorified Um, I mean the best we 903 00:53:07,080 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: can do, but a glorified container, right, and then and 904 00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: then say okay, let's just keep playing this lottery until 905 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:17,480 Speaker 1: we can build something, so I says, something larger and 906 00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 1: so I sustainable. It seems like the future of space 907 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 1: exploration is going to belong to whatever new life form 908 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:30,520 Speaker 1: humanity creates. So we're not the protagonist. Really, we're like 909 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 1: the yeah, and they're like the Midwives or something. Yeah, yeah, 910 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 1: we we were the results. And you know, there's of 911 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 1: course the theories that the life on this planet evolved 912 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 1: from commets and things smashing into it because somewhere else 913 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:47,760 Speaker 1: there were these organisms and the microscopic level that attached 914 00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:50,920 Speaker 1: to the various comments and whatnot got here and then boom, 915 00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 1: life happened. And so you know, if we really want 916 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:57,960 Speaker 1: to get off planet, I say we just start, you know, 917 00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:01,320 Speaker 1: put put our personal microbe on some rocks and shoot 918 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:03,920 Speaker 1: them in the space and hope for the best. Get 919 00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 1: some spermozoa and some eggs on these rocks and get 920 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: them out there. Trying to put a man. Why would 921 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:13,320 Speaker 1: we try to put humans on Mars where they're just 922 00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:18,279 Speaker 1: gonna get bombarded with radiations and nightmare scenarios that they'll 923 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 1: never survive. Is it because we just want to have 924 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,680 Speaker 1: one guy or one lady who can one up buzz Aldrin? 925 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 1: And a conversation later, I had a baby? What did 926 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:31,080 Speaker 1: you do? That was one of the most fascinating things 927 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:34,279 Speaker 1: from the Mars episode. There procreating on Mars and how 928 00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 1: how long it will take to figure out if that's 929 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:39,800 Speaker 1: even possible. I mean, it's so like completely unsustainable. Was 930 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:41,360 Speaker 1: I think they could take a hundred people at a 931 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,240 Speaker 1: time and their goal is to get a million people, 932 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 1: And they were saying by the time that everyone got there, 933 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,320 Speaker 1: there'd be a whole new generation of kids that have 934 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 1: been born. They worked the way we work because we 935 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:56,320 Speaker 1: grew up on this planet, not on some other planets. 936 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:58,440 Speaker 1: But one thing that came up in the interview was 937 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,680 Speaker 1: with with with Marshall, was I brought up the idea 938 00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:08,439 Speaker 1: would we evolve differently on Mars versus you know who 939 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:11,400 Speaker 1: really figured this stuff out was the first total recall, 940 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:17,879 Speaker 1: whereas immediately like true Martians became mutants. So these weird 941 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,240 Speaker 1: because they were just growing up in this completely different 942 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:23,319 Speaker 1: environment than Earth is. And so we started sending people 943 00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:25,600 Speaker 1: there and they started breeding, and then you got Quato. 944 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:31,920 Speaker 1: Yeah where it's that but he's singing your eyes by 945 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 1: Peter Gabriel and again to go with Hawking. Yeah, so 946 00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:41,480 Speaker 1: why would we want to meet? So let's say some 947 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:44,759 Speaker 1: species was brilliant enough to make its way off the 948 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:47,319 Speaker 1: planet or slip in between dimensions and all that kind 949 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:50,560 Speaker 1: of stuff, and they're here and they're watching us, who 950 00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:54,080 Speaker 1: are total morons, Like with the humans, do not have 951 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,279 Speaker 1: it figured out or else the world would be in 952 00:55:56,320 --> 00:56:00,160 Speaker 1: a very nice state right now where everybody would be 953 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 1: working harmoniously with one another. We are absolutely not in 954 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:07,720 Speaker 1: that state. But they's going to be so much further advance. 955 00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 1: Why would they come here for anything other than resources? 956 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,360 Speaker 1: And if that's what they're here for, unless we're the 957 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 1: resource they need, then would be getting loaded onto ships. 958 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:19,480 Speaker 1: They just wipe us out and take whatever they were 959 00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:23,800 Speaker 1: here for. It's unobtainium. There was a Twilight Zone episode 960 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:27,320 Speaker 1: where the Aliens wanted to take us all to their planet. 961 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 1: Everyone talked about it, Right, that's great show they created, 962 00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 1: Like every twisty sci fi truck that gallery, it's even weirder. 963 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:47,920 Speaker 1: You have a quote Kreager has a quote in the 964 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:51,359 Speaker 1: show about superior anal technology with the aliens and that's 965 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:54,759 Speaker 1: why he was so fascinated by abductions, and yeah, and uh, 966 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: they could tell so much just by probing our butts. 967 00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:01,520 Speaker 1: That's that's one of the strangest and funniest things to 968 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:05,000 Speaker 1: come out of pop culture around abductions and aliens and 969 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 1: all that. I just why is it always an anal probe? 970 00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:12,920 Speaker 1: Why are you? Yeah? Why are they nation? What's ground 971 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 1: zero for anal probe? Alien tropes? Like, was it was 972 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 1: it the Twilight Zone? No, I don't think I was. 973 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 1: During the Collective there was some real fads of suddenly 974 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:29,880 Speaker 1: there were all these were forward, right, and so like 975 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:32,520 Speaker 1: I think one abduct he probably brought it up, and 976 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:37,640 Speaker 1: then other of duct quotes on the same Oh yeah, 977 00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:39,720 Speaker 1: that happened to me too. And then then of course, 978 00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 1: because it's the funniest thing that could happen is that 979 00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 1: you would go on this ship and the aliens would 980 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 1: start sticking things in your butt. That's the one that 981 00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 1: people because we are still just who throwing monkeys? Absolutely, 982 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 1: And I know I don't not believe in the concept 983 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 1: of abductions. I just don't think we have enough information. 984 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:01,240 Speaker 1: I'm not like fully on word they but have the 985 00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 1: same attitude towards that as I do about like the 986 00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:09,480 Speaker 1: existence of you know, a greater if anyways were coming 987 00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:12,440 Speaker 1: here and abducting us, why would they us put us back? 988 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:15,880 Speaker 1: I want they just take us, take a person, go off, 989 00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:19,120 Speaker 1: do all their experiments in the discard? Why did they 990 00:58:19,120 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 1: wait for ethical reasons bringing us back and putting us 991 00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:28,200 Speaker 1: back in a sort of fuzzy memories of what happened, 992 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:30,600 Speaker 1: like what's the point of throwing us back? Maybe they 993 00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 1: have really high level morals in there, and they would 994 00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:38,200 Speaker 1: ask us permission, and they have a booth, you know, 995 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:43,280 Speaker 1: sign up college campuses at the alien fair where you 996 00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 1: would go and see like, oh yeah, I'm gonna go 997 00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:48,320 Speaker 1: with this experiment as I want the aliens to figure 998 00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 1: out about us. You get a small amount of money, 999 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 1: Why would they ever bring us a stipend at least, 1000 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:56,120 Speaker 1: like we had all these extra steps so that they're 1001 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 1: nice to us in the end, Like they're awful, but 1002 00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:02,280 Speaker 1: they're nice. There's also the possibility that abductions occur, but 1003 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 1: are the cause is misattributed, you know, because we know 1004 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,600 Speaker 1: memory is treacherous, right, One thing I thought was interesting 1005 00:59:08,600 --> 00:59:11,360 Speaker 1: about these alien abduction stories is if you look at 1006 00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:14,680 Speaker 1: them plot point for plot point, they're very, very similar 1007 00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:18,160 Speaker 1: to the old tropes of people being visited by change 1008 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 1: lands or fairies. You know. So I think there's a 1009 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:26,080 Speaker 1: larger phenomenon or experience or something in the zeitgeist. But 1010 00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:33,240 Speaker 1: I think it's also it's also just very It's it's 1011 00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:37,080 Speaker 1: easy to attribute a specific cause with a lack of transparency, 1012 00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 1: but if we don't know, then we can just say 1013 00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 1: what is more likely, what is less likely? And I 1014 00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 1: love the point you're making about why why would it 1015 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 1: be catch and release? You know what I mean? Because 1016 00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 1: what is this? Yeah, there's a whole spaces endless Yeah, 1017 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 1: I just chuck our bodies out when you're done with us. 1018 00:59:57,720 --> 01:00:00,400 Speaker 1: I will say this though, and this bleeds into not 1019 01:00:00,480 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 1: only what we're talking about, but also my theory on ghosts, 1020 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 1: which is another which is dimensional echoes. Right, So we 1021 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 1: could be, you know, the theory say that we live 1022 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:16,720 Speaker 1: in this multidimensional system where and let's say, dimensions rub 1023 01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:18,880 Speaker 1: up against each other. That's what I think ghosts because 1024 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:22,440 Speaker 1: I wish, man, I wish more than anybody, you know, 1025 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:25,520 Speaker 1: that ghost spooky ghosts would be flying around all over 1026 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:27,720 Speaker 1: the place. God, I want that to be real. I 1027 01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 1: don't think it is. But I and I've lived in 1028 01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:34,320 Speaker 1: a house that other tenants have claimed was haunted, and 1029 01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:35,920 Speaker 1: they heard a lot of things, and every once in 1030 01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:38,600 Speaker 1: a while you would see a weird shadow walk by 1031 01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:40,680 Speaker 1: that you didn't. But I think things like that are 1032 01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 1: just like maybe there's a dimensional echo, right. Maybe sometimes 1033 01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:48,200 Speaker 1: that they the strings or whatever get a little close 1034 01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:53,280 Speaker 1: to each other, and so there's some bleed in between dimensions, 1035 01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:58,600 Speaker 1: and maybe abductees are sleeping and they see this guy, 1036 01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:02,240 Speaker 1: they some other sorry, some of the dimensional thing will 1037 01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:04,880 Speaker 1: rub up against it there they can perceive it. They 1038 01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:06,440 Speaker 1: don't know what to make of it, and so they 1039 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:10,080 Speaker 1: create this already in the pop culture mindset, or these 1040 01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 1: alien abductions, And so it must have been that as 1041 01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:15,880 Speaker 1: opposed to this other thing that I can't even possibly 1042 01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:18,600 Speaker 1: begin to explain. I don't know, did you ever have 1043 01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 1: any personal experiences while you were there? The only seeing 1044 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:25,320 Speaker 1: out of the corner like me and some buds. Granted 1045 01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:30,320 Speaker 1: we were in our twenties, all stoners, beyond belief and 1046 01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 1: you know, up at all hours, just being ridiculous, but 1047 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:37,080 Speaker 1: we would all be sitting there like either watching TV 1048 01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:40,400 Speaker 1: or something, and you'd see something walk by door. We 1049 01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:42,880 Speaker 1: had these big French doors, and you'd see something, and 1050 01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 1: everybody in the room would turn and look, you know, 1051 01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 1: at the same time, like what was that, and would 1052 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:51,200 Speaker 1: be like, oh, what just happened. And one of my 1053 01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:53,720 Speaker 1: very best friends on the planet and also a big skeptic, 1054 01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:56,720 Speaker 1: uh was left in the house at one point during 1055 01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:00,600 Speaker 1: the holiday season. Everybody left and he heard like a 1056 01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 1: full on party going on upstairs and he was alone 1057 01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 1: in the house and he was freaked out, like he 1058 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:08,600 Speaker 1: like left the house. He couldn't take it anymore. And 1059 01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 1: the guy, one of our buddies, who his grandmother had 1060 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,880 Speaker 1: originally owned the house, and apparently there was a lot 1061 01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:18,200 Speaker 1: of entertaining that went on during the holidays and all 1062 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:19,560 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. And that's why I was like, well, 1063 01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:22,400 Speaker 1: maybe these are just some sort of echoes of those 1064 01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:25,400 Speaker 1: old times and stuff that somehow I don't know. So 1065 01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:31,680 Speaker 1: not a conscious not a conscious thing, just another experience. 1066 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:33,600 Speaker 1: So I've told this story in the podcast before and 1067 01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:35,880 Speaker 1: I'm just to tell the quick version. Um. But when 1068 01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:38,439 Speaker 1: I was a kid, a girl, I was dating a 1069 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 1: dear friend of hers died in a car accident, and 1070 01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:43,960 Speaker 1: I got into her car my my girlfriend at the time. 1071 01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:46,480 Speaker 1: She was finished class, and it was like really cold, 1072 01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 1: got in and she was like crying, and I'm like, 1073 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:51,160 Speaker 1: what's up? And she blows on the inside of her 1074 01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 1: car windshield and the girl who died with her signatures. 1075 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,600 Speaker 1: They're clear as day. And in my mind at that moment, 1076 01:02:57,640 --> 01:03:03,640 Speaker 1: I was like ghosts all. You got really emotional, and 1077 01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:06,960 Speaker 1: I felt like a sense of this thing. But I 1078 01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,080 Speaker 1: know now that it was totally like the kind of 1079 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:11,960 Speaker 1: thing of a girlfriend would do, you know, like in 1080 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:14,240 Speaker 1: their early twenties or whatever, write your name and in 1081 01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:17,360 Speaker 1: your breath or whatever, and you got residue on your fingers, 1082 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:21,480 Speaker 1: so it's it's yeah, exactly. But like in that moment though, 1083 01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:24,760 Speaker 1: I was just like done, I mean, you know, and 1084 01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:26,920 Speaker 1: it was like and I didn't even have to explain 1085 01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:28,760 Speaker 1: it away, just kind of like fizzled over time where 1086 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 1: I realized, oh, I was kind of like really taken 1087 01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:32,680 Speaker 1: in by the moment, but like this is really what 1088 01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:36,200 Speaker 1: was happening, and it was kind of disappointing. You know, 1089 01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:39,200 Speaker 1: our brains want an answer a lot of times, they 1090 01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:41,760 Speaker 1: just aren't ones that we can perceive, and so we 1091 01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:45,160 Speaker 1: come up with ghosts. Well, and here's where we get 1092 01:03:45,200 --> 01:03:49,240 Speaker 1: into something very similar, where the human mind is just 1093 01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:52,600 Speaker 1: trying to make sense of something that we don't understand, 1094 01:03:53,160 --> 01:04:00,160 Speaker 1: and we call it a lot of times magic. So yeah, okay, 1095 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:04,760 Speaker 1: all right, I'll buy magic. Yeah. Magic, Well, it's something 1096 01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 1: that comes up here all the time because we discuss 1097 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,400 Speaker 1: how technology, if it's advanced enough, it seems to be 1098 01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 1: magic to us simply because we can't explain it. I cannot. Yeah, 1099 01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:16,040 Speaker 1: as far as I know, there's a little wizard that 1100 01:04:16,080 --> 01:04:18,160 Speaker 1: lives inside my laptop that makes it happen as far 1101 01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:20,200 Speaker 1: as I know. Yeah, I don't know how it works. 1102 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:23,040 Speaker 1: What's that Arthur C. Clark quote? Yeah, that's what we're 1103 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 1: just like. Uh, technology past a certain point is indistinguishable 1104 01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 1: from magic. I'm paraphrasing. Apparently that comes up hardcore in 1105 01:04:31,240 --> 01:04:33,520 Speaker 1: the new Transformers movie. I think it's in the first 1106 01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:38,680 Speaker 1: four movie too. Yeah, so there's this idea, right, But 1107 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 1: then there are other human beings throughout history who have 1108 01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:45,120 Speaker 1: tried to make use of a more I don't want 1109 01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:49,360 Speaker 1: to say conventional magic, but spell casting and actually writing 1110 01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:52,960 Speaker 1: things down and yeah, yeah, the focus your mind on 1111 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:56,880 Speaker 1: this one sort of subject or or outcome that you want, 1112 01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:00,400 Speaker 1: and somehow you are making the universe respond to your 1113 01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:04,720 Speaker 1: constant thought processes. Yeah. I used to buy into that 1114 01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:08,280 Speaker 1: stuff too, but then it becomes how can I, possibly 1115 01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:12,040 Speaker 1: my little chemical thing going on in my brain have 1116 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 1: any influence whatsoever on the physical world around me unless 1117 01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:20,919 Speaker 1: I do so, Like, unless you're influencing yourself in some way. Yeah, 1118 01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:24,360 Speaker 1: unless it's like weaponized psychology, which is a phrase somebody 1119 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,040 Speaker 1: used that I thought was I thought it was cool, Um, 1120 01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:31,200 Speaker 1: but it's yeah, it's it's true. There's certain things that 1121 01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:34,000 Speaker 1: no matter how much you focus your attention or whatever, 1122 01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 1: how art and a fan of the secret you are, 1123 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:40,640 Speaker 1: you can look Like hundreds of people got together in 1124 01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:43,520 Speaker 1: the sixties and tried to lift the White House with 1125 01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:50,880 Speaker 1: their minds. It's still on the ground, you know. Okay, 1126 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:52,680 Speaker 1: thank you, sorry about that. You should have tried with 1127 01:05:52,800 --> 01:05:55,880 Speaker 1: like we tried to lift the bike first, Like, let's 1128 01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:58,920 Speaker 1: start with a bicycle before we moved to the White House, 1129 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:03,640 Speaker 1: which is a giant bill Yeah, people very heavy. So yeah, 1130 01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 1: it has an extensive basement. I was just gonna say, 1131 01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:08,840 Speaker 1: a bowling alley in it. So maybe if we got 1132 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:13,240 Speaker 1: a couple of hundred people and like a toddler's bike. Yeah, 1133 01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 1: start a ping pong ball. Lift that up hundreds of people. 1134 01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:19,960 Speaker 1: We're gonna put it right in the middle of this field. 1135 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 1: You make a circle around it. Just lift this ping 1136 01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:23,960 Speaker 1: pong ball up. What do you guys do next Saturday? 1137 01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:28,000 Speaker 1: Hopefully lifting up my mind, I'd rather just play some 1138 01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,360 Speaker 1: ping pong and we just keep it simple. I think 1139 01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:32,320 Speaker 1: we can. I'm a basic. I think we're gonna do 1140 01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:34,760 Speaker 1: this all in one afternoon. We just have to multitask, 1141 01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:36,600 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. We could take the ping 1142 01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,160 Speaker 1: pong balls from the ping pong game that will satisfy 1143 01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:40,960 Speaker 1: me and then try to lift them with our minds. 1144 01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:43,680 Speaker 1: Or we could see if someone could try to like 1145 01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:47,760 Speaker 1: till the ping pong game in your favor. Yeah, you know, 1146 01:06:49,120 --> 01:06:51,040 Speaker 1: because that's what people would do if they had small 1147 01:06:51,080 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 1: amounts of telekinesis right, You'd be in Vegas playing craps 1148 01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 1: because you'd never loose. Don't you ever feel that urge though, 1149 01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:58,800 Speaker 1: just to like think real hard at something and make 1150 01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:00,720 Speaker 1: it do a thing. I tried to do that all 1151 01:07:00,720 --> 01:07:04,520 Speaker 1: the time and it doesn't work. But like like telegu 1152 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 1: is magic essentially, you know what I mean, We're all 1153 01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:12,000 Speaker 1: these words, all these you know, different things. It's all 1154 01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:14,480 Speaker 1: the same crap. It's just like you want something to 1155 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:18,320 Speaker 1: happen that really can't, but so you're gonna make this 1156 01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:21,240 Speaker 1: thing called magic make it work. They just haven't harnessed 1157 01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 1: the strings yet in some cases. In some cases, uh, 1158 01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 1: practices that would have been considered magical in the modern 1159 01:07:28,640 --> 01:07:34,560 Speaker 1: day did produce important results, like alchemists when their predecessors 1160 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:38,120 Speaker 1: of chemists discovered a lot of stuff. Some of it, 1161 01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:42,080 Speaker 1: it turned out, later came back to bide us, like pesticides. 1162 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:47,200 Speaker 1: But at the time that's amazing. And so I I 1163 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:50,080 Speaker 1: can definitely see that edge of that. I have a 1164 01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:54,200 Speaker 1: proposition for you guys that ties into this a little bit. So. 1165 01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:57,720 Speaker 1: One of the big psychic powers, which I would also 1166 01:07:57,720 --> 01:08:01,640 Speaker 1: classify with magic, that people will typically talk about in 1167 01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:05,800 Speaker 1: fiction or sometimes claim the experience, is what's called psychometry, 1168 01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:09,360 Speaker 1: the idea that by touching a physical object, someone with 1169 01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:12,920 Speaker 1: this gift would somehow know what happened, right, So like 1170 01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:19,280 Speaker 1: so like Lucky is like Lucky is like in somebody's 1171 01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 1: kitchen and he picks up a knife and then he 1172 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:23,200 Speaker 1: just all of a sudden knows there was used as 1173 01:08:23,240 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 1: a murder weapon, and he's still gotta like hang out 1174 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 1: and be cool with whomever the killer is for a second. Right, 1175 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:33,640 Speaker 1: that's how that's how it happens. But um now I 1176 01:08:33,680 --> 01:08:37,800 Speaker 1: think it's it's plausible or well possible that we as 1177 01:08:37,800 --> 01:08:41,680 Speaker 1: a species could arrive at a situation where technology or 1178 01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:44,160 Speaker 1: the Internet of things, which that was used to be 1179 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:48,439 Speaker 1: a really popular phrase, where it enables that kind of psychometry. Well, 1180 01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:51,799 Speaker 1: there was a there was a product that came out 1181 01:08:51,840 --> 01:08:55,479 Speaker 1: and there are probably several of these called tile and 1182 01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:58,519 Speaker 1: all the idea. The idea was like people who lose things, 1183 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:00,599 Speaker 1: and for a lot of people, this is a this 1184 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:05,439 Speaker 1: is a convenient thing. And what it means is that 1185 01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:09,360 Speaker 1: you'll never you'll not only will you never not know 1186 01:09:09,439 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: where an object that is tagged is, but eventually that 1187 01:09:12,640 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 1: same technology could get us to a point where you know, 1188 01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:19,720 Speaker 1: this cup also has a story that I can tell 1189 01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:21,800 Speaker 1: that you can pick up just by touching it and 1190 01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:24,960 Speaker 1: just running your phone over it. That's pretty interesting. But 1191 01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:27,800 Speaker 1: I like seeing the trees and what not that it 1192 01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:32,639 Speaker 1: came from who knows, I don't know what from cup. Yeah, 1193 01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:36,000 Speaker 1: when it gets documented first like if they put if 1194 01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:38,000 Speaker 1: there was a cup is not the best I mean, honestly, 1195 01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:40,400 Speaker 1: it's not the best example. But yeah, if they made 1196 01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:47,120 Speaker 1: the cup and then they tagged the cup with the cup, Yeah, yeah, right, right, 1197 01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:50,160 Speaker 1: that's what I mean. So I think that's I think 1198 01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:54,080 Speaker 1: that's possible. But also I would ask if that ever happened, 1199 01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:56,080 Speaker 1: would you want that would you want to participate in 1200 01:09:56,080 --> 01:10:01,160 Speaker 1: that society? I mean, unless you it's just another distraction 1201 01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:03,680 Speaker 1: to keep us from the horrors of us destroying ourselves, 1202 01:10:03,680 --> 01:10:07,200 Speaker 1: And like, so, what's the point of knowing your cups story? Yeah? Right, 1203 01:10:07,360 --> 01:10:10,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, what's the point even though 1204 01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:13,720 Speaker 1: it's just because we can do it? Like, yeah, that's 1205 01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:18,639 Speaker 1: Historically it's something that we've often we've often said as 1206 01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 1: as a life form, we've often been like, hey, you 1207 01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:24,680 Speaker 1: know this thing we could do. It's someone's like, oh, 1208 01:10:24,760 --> 01:10:27,840 Speaker 1: like we can do that thing, Like yeah, yeah, Like, well, 1209 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:30,000 Speaker 1: let's go into the desert and blow up an atom bob, 1210 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:34,840 Speaker 1: let's go do it. Our curse right of humanity, Like 1211 01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:39,120 Speaker 1: we're fearless and curious at the same time, we don't 1212 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:41,040 Speaker 1: care if it's going to wipe out a bunch of 1213 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:44,360 Speaker 1: ourselves in order to find something. Man, if we think 1214 01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:47,400 Speaker 1: of something, we're gonna have to do it, and I'm 1215 01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:49,760 Speaker 1: gonna stop until we do it. That's just the human way. 1216 01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:52,280 Speaker 1: You got to make sure we can. Yeah. So, so 1217 01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:55,080 Speaker 1: you were into magic at some point or you just 1218 01:10:56,160 --> 01:11:00,360 Speaker 1: the idea of magic itself. Also, because you know, every 1219 01:11:00,400 --> 01:11:03,400 Speaker 1: religion in the world is is based on the idea 1220 01:11:03,520 --> 01:11:07,320 Speaker 1: of a giant magical being who you know, has other 1221 01:11:07,400 --> 01:11:11,040 Speaker 1: magical henchmen that seemed to no longer really be working 1222 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:13,519 Speaker 1: out there in the field. But it's all magic based, 1223 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:15,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And this is like it 1224 01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:18,519 Speaker 1: has such a grasp on humanity. The concept of magic, 1225 01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:21,599 Speaker 1: even though it's weird bringing up religions, is that when 1226 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:25,720 Speaker 1: you introduce that word to somebody when discussing you know, 1227 01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:28,160 Speaker 1: I'm an atheist and so, but if I'm discussing somebody 1228 01:11:28,160 --> 01:11:30,360 Speaker 1: who has a religious background like my parents, Let's say, 1229 01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 1: if you bring up the word magic, they flip out. 1230 01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 1: But then when you explained, but here's what you're saying, 1231 01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:40,759 Speaker 1: and there's no other way to describe what you're saying 1232 01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:45,040 Speaker 1: other than using magic, which is ironic considering that a 1233 01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:48,679 Speaker 1: lot of hardcore Christians think any magic that doesn't isn't 1234 01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:52,800 Speaker 1: involved in their religion? Is evil and witchcraft or satanic 1235 01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:58,720 Speaker 1: something's like the magic in my book magic. Oh my god, 1236 01:11:58,760 --> 01:12:04,719 Speaker 1: that's it's work. And it's not just Christianity to Yeah. 1237 01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:07,120 Speaker 1: And I mean, and it goes to humans being just 1238 01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:09,640 Speaker 1: very tribal and we've got to have our group is 1239 01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:13,400 Speaker 1: the right group and not your group. Let's wipe each 1240 01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:16,439 Speaker 1: other out so that our ideas are the ones that survived. 1241 01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:20,000 Speaker 1: And it's a zero sum game. Yeah, I'm so jealous 1242 01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:22,400 Speaker 1: of you. Haven't been able to see saw Ricky Gervais 1243 01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:27,400 Speaker 1: debate or defend his atheism to Stephen Colbert, who is 1244 01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:30,320 Speaker 1: a devout Catholic. Yeah, And he had the coolest line. 1245 01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:34,000 Speaker 1: It was like, I believe in one less god than you. Yeah. 1246 01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:37,400 Speaker 1: It's like there's what three thousand gods in the working 1247 01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:40,600 Speaker 1: canon of humanity right now. I just don't believe in 1248 01:12:40,720 --> 01:12:43,280 Speaker 1: one more than you. Yeah, you don't believe in two 1249 01:12:43,280 --> 01:12:47,080 Speaker 1: thousand gods. I just believe don't believe in three thousand 1250 01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:49,080 Speaker 1: of them. And I thought that was a great point. 1251 01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:52,320 Speaker 1: It's great, you know, you know, if we want to 1252 01:12:52,360 --> 01:12:56,240 Speaker 1: get into religion, I don't know how many cards and letters, 1253 01:12:56,920 --> 01:12:58,920 Speaker 1: but we just at this point would like to remind 1254 01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 1: everyone you will never tell you what to believe, no, no, no. 1255 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:05,599 Speaker 1: What gets you through your day, great, just as long 1256 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:07,840 Speaker 1: as it's not causing you to do harm upon others. 1257 01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:09,240 Speaker 1: That's the way I see it. I think we can 1258 01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:11,280 Speaker 1: all agree with that. If if it gets through your 1259 01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:14,760 Speaker 1: day and you all your beliefs and you rocket man 1260 01:13:14,920 --> 01:13:18,880 Speaker 1: do it, go for it. Happy for you. Um, But 1261 01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:22,080 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think that well, I don't think 1262 01:13:22,320 --> 01:13:24,599 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think there. I'm not a big 1263 01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:28,400 Speaker 1: believer personally and proselytizing, so I don't. I don't think 1264 01:13:28,400 --> 01:13:34,160 Speaker 1: it's we say it on the show because it's something 1265 01:13:34,160 --> 01:13:36,360 Speaker 1: that we practice in our real lives. We're not going 1266 01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:38,880 Speaker 1: to go out and tell people what to think or 1267 01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:42,280 Speaker 1: what to do now, but it's okay to say, uh, 1268 01:13:42,360 --> 01:13:44,559 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not going to tell you not to 1269 01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:48,679 Speaker 1: attempt to launch yourself out of a cannon without training, 1270 01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:51,559 Speaker 1: but say, well, you should know the odds of you 1271 01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:55,920 Speaker 1: being injured are much higher than the odds of you, 1272 01:13:55,920 --> 01:13:58,680 Speaker 1: you know, pulling off this cool trick. I mean, the 1273 01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:00,880 Speaker 1: person you're trying to impress my date you, but they'll 1274 01:14:00,880 --> 01:14:02,679 Speaker 1: be dating you in the burn Ward for a while. 1275 01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:05,679 Speaker 1: Best case scenario, I think that's I mean, I think 1276 01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:09,120 Speaker 1: that's absolutely fine. I appreciate you said. Whatever it takes 1277 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:13,000 Speaker 1: to get you through your day. Um, so whatever gets 1278 01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:16,120 Speaker 1: you through your day. We know that we live in 1279 01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:21,000 Speaker 1: in the West, at least an increasingly secularizing society, right, 1280 01:14:21,400 --> 01:14:27,120 Speaker 1: and we also know that people are shedding some of 1281 01:14:27,160 --> 01:14:31,559 Speaker 1: the old taboos that once existed social taboos, I mean, right. 1282 01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:36,679 Speaker 1: And one of the biggest cases of stuff they don't 1283 01:14:36,680 --> 01:14:40,000 Speaker 1: want you to know that we get. Since this show began, 1284 01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:46,479 Speaker 1: be people asking us about marijuana legalization, specifically cannabis and hemp. 1285 01:14:46,800 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 1: M Yeah, we found a various different and surprising historical anecdotes. 1286 01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:56,680 Speaker 1: You know, marijuana was not the always the villain that 1287 01:14:56,800 --> 01:15:01,840 Speaker 1: it it became, you know, so we wanted to ask, 1288 01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:05,280 Speaker 1: you know, what do you think about the current movement, 1289 01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:09,280 Speaker 1: which is state by state. Um, I'm kind of contradicting 1290 01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:10,920 Speaker 1: the federal government stance. What do you think about the 1291 01:15:10,920 --> 01:15:13,800 Speaker 1: current movement towards legaliz all for it? Because I'm a 1292 01:15:13,880 --> 01:15:17,240 Speaker 1: huge pothead. What do you mean still he said it 1293 01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:19,920 Speaker 1: was in your twenties. Uh no, that was my old 1294 01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:23,120 Speaker 1: drinking days, and well, in my twenties, I did. I left. 1295 01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:26,599 Speaker 1: I left POT for a while, uh, and I became 1296 01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:30,240 Speaker 1: a real good drunk, uh fun drunk, though I never 1297 01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:33,400 Speaker 1: got bad or anything like that, but I could eventually 1298 01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:37,280 Speaker 1: i'lcohol turned on me. Uh and I turned back to 1299 01:15:37,439 --> 01:15:40,000 Speaker 1: POT and I went, you know, I was and like 1300 01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:43,080 Speaker 1: I with like many artists, I got a lot of 1301 01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:47,000 Speaker 1: neurotic hangups and such and uh, my entire life, I've 1302 01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:50,000 Speaker 1: always you know, been a panicky type. And I was 1303 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:53,400 Speaker 1: taking Paxel and all kinds of everything all day long, 1304 01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:55,160 Speaker 1: you know, having a pop pills every day just to 1305 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:58,240 Speaker 1: keep me grounded. And then then we came back into 1306 01:15:58,280 --> 01:16:01,760 Speaker 1: my life and completely changed the game for me, Like 1307 01:16:01,920 --> 01:16:04,640 Speaker 1: I just put me at ease with things I had 1308 01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:07,240 Speaker 1: never been at ease out before. Gave me perspective on 1309 01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:10,320 Speaker 1: things that and you know it and it was different 1310 01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:12,639 Speaker 1: than it was in my twenties, my experience with pot 1311 01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:14,640 Speaker 1: in the twenties, which was you know, I mean, I 1312 01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:17,520 Speaker 1: mean my twenties. So I'm just looking at party, party, party, party, 1313 01:16:17,800 --> 01:16:21,040 Speaker 1: as opposed to this thing that I'm discovering, Like, not 1314 01:16:21,120 --> 01:16:24,760 Speaker 1: only does it open me up to uh talk more 1315 01:16:24,760 --> 01:16:28,360 Speaker 1: about ideas and see things from a different perspective than 1316 01:16:28,400 --> 01:16:31,240 Speaker 1: I had before. I think maybe age has something to 1317 01:16:31,280 --> 01:16:35,240 Speaker 1: do with that too, But um it also I don't 1318 01:16:35,320 --> 01:16:38,280 Speaker 1: have to pop Paxel every day anymore because this has 1319 01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:43,280 Speaker 1: completely like mellowed out my whole panicky situation that I 1320 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:45,519 Speaker 1: was always in the middle of into like being able 1321 01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:48,439 Speaker 1: to cope with things on a much more adult and 1322 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:50,640 Speaker 1: responsible level than I had been, which I was just 1323 01:16:50,720 --> 01:16:54,920 Speaker 1: reactionary before. And we've done episodes on Big Pharma and 1324 01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:59,560 Speaker 1: obviously pretty significant and it just about anybody just observing 1325 01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:06,160 Speaker 1: argue roadblock too wide scale large scale legalization is well, 1326 01:17:06,240 --> 01:17:12,000 Speaker 1: that's the whole and that's exactly correct. The problem with 1327 01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:15,559 Speaker 1: POT is is that it's too perfect and it grows 1328 01:17:15,680 --> 01:17:20,400 Speaker 1: wild and uh, giant corporations can't control that so much. 1329 01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:24,200 Speaker 1: And this is again goes back to the Mars trade, 1330 01:17:24,240 --> 01:17:27,720 Speaker 1: Like I can't throw capitalism up there because it's just 1331 01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:30,479 Speaker 1: going to destroy itself really fast. Like if as soon 1332 01:17:30,479 --> 01:17:32,519 Speaker 1: as you through the idea of like who's going to 1333 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:35,320 Speaker 1: make more money up here than it just ruins everything. Like, 1334 01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,200 Speaker 1: so yeah, I'm all for a POT. Uh, you know, 1335 01:17:38,280 --> 01:17:41,960 Speaker 1: I also want to keep you know, the big corporations 1336 01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:45,680 Speaker 1: out of it, because it is a crop. And you know. 1337 01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:49,919 Speaker 1: So here's the thing, Lucky. Do you live in Atlanta? 1338 01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 1: I do, I do, and I smoke pot every day, 1339 01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:59,679 Speaker 1: which is illegal and this thing, but you think that 1340 01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:02,040 Speaker 1: that is what makes it hard to get ahold of. 1341 01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:05,679 Speaker 1: That's the other thing is that Look, every other state, 1342 01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:10,760 Speaker 1: including mine, own every state that doesn't have legality. It's 1343 01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:13,200 Speaker 1: out there and it's the easiest thing in the world. 1344 01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:14,960 Speaker 1: It's easier for me to buy weed than it is 1345 01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:16,920 Speaker 1: for me to buy alcohol. And I'm fifty years old, 1346 01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:19,040 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like, I got a hundred 1347 01:18:19,040 --> 01:18:20,960 Speaker 1: guys that I know that I can get some weed 1348 01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:24,840 Speaker 1: off of. I gotta drive to a liquor store and 1349 01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:27,640 Speaker 1: to know where one of those is and guys that 1350 01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:31,679 Speaker 1: will deliver marijuana to me. It's true. Alcohol delivery isn't 1351 01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:35,840 Speaker 1: a thing yet, not yet, work on it, working on it. 1352 01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:38,240 Speaker 1: But it's weird because it's it ties into some of 1353 01:18:38,240 --> 01:18:41,080 Speaker 1: the blue law things right where, and those are especially 1354 01:18:41,120 --> 01:18:43,400 Speaker 1: common in the South. We used to talk about, well, 1355 01:18:43,680 --> 01:18:46,599 Speaker 1: we was talking about the case for legalization, whether it's 1356 01:18:46,640 --> 01:18:53,799 Speaker 1: decriminalization or full recreational legalization. When Colorado UH massively boosted 1357 01:18:53,800 --> 01:18:57,719 Speaker 1: their tax revenue and the state ran out of weed 1358 01:18:57,800 --> 01:19:03,240 Speaker 1: to sell. Nevada is currently out weed. Just this month 1359 01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:06,160 Speaker 1: became like they opened up their dispensaries and they're out 1360 01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:11,240 Speaker 1: of pot because it became soap. Everybody smoking weed except 1361 01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:14,400 Speaker 1: the guys in the big offices that are telling us 1362 01:19:14,439 --> 01:19:17,000 Speaker 1: not the smoke weed. Well, they might be smoken too. 1363 01:19:17,200 --> 01:19:21,679 Speaker 1: What's that old line about prohibitions, like, uh, people vote 1364 01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:23,960 Speaker 1: for prohibition as long as they can still stumble to 1365 01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:28,840 Speaker 1: the polly. Admission does nothing but create crime. That's where 1366 01:19:28,840 --> 01:19:31,479 Speaker 1: the crime comes in, is the prohibition. As soon as 1367 01:19:31,520 --> 01:19:34,760 Speaker 1: it's legalized and regulated, then there's no problem anymore. It 1368 01:19:34,880 --> 01:19:37,920 Speaker 1: certainly feels like we're on the road to decriminalize, at 1369 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:40,240 Speaker 1: least in a lot of places. I think the country 1370 01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:44,479 Speaker 1: is gladly walk to a dispensary and pay more than 1371 01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:47,360 Speaker 1: I currently pay on the black market, knowing that the 1372 01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:49,919 Speaker 1: more that I'm paying is going to fund better schools 1373 01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:53,680 Speaker 1: for my state? Are you kidding me? Absolutely? Throw in 1374 01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:56,519 Speaker 1: on that. Look at the numbers though, it's absurd how 1375 01:19:56,600 --> 01:19:58,800 Speaker 1: much money it makes. Yeah, and when it's using you 1376 01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 1: know it's done in these more p agressive states they 1377 01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:04,679 Speaker 1: use it. Well, you know, it's like you can pay 1378 01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:08,759 Speaker 1: for infrastructure. Already doing that in Georgia with the lottery, 1379 01:20:08,840 --> 01:20:13,720 Speaker 1: which is just legalized gambling. You know, we won't call 1380 01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:17,320 Speaker 1: it that ever, because we're not a gamble state. That's 1381 01:20:17,360 --> 01:20:19,559 Speaker 1: all that is. And every way it goes to our 1382 01:20:19,680 --> 01:20:26,280 Speaker 1: schools and in theory scholarships and such. Yea a little bit, 1383 01:20:27,000 --> 01:20:31,960 Speaker 1: but so good again, good good chance to start afresh 1384 01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:36,600 Speaker 1: with marijuana legalization. Of like then you past legislation that 1385 01:20:36,680 --> 01:20:39,679 Speaker 1: earmarks that produg and it has to go there or else. 1386 01:20:39,760 --> 01:20:43,000 Speaker 1: This whole thing is done. What's really standing in the way, though, 1387 01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:45,280 Speaker 1: obviously politicians are a big part of it. You've got 1388 01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:47,639 Speaker 1: I think the old generation of fear. There's a lot 1389 01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:49,479 Speaker 1: of fear from because you know a lot of people, 1390 01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:55,519 Speaker 1: that's the fear about losing their their influence. And I 1391 01:20:55,920 --> 01:20:58,320 Speaker 1: think it's a voter base, right, It's the type of 1392 01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:02,240 Speaker 1: thing that uh, you know, my parents I don't think 1393 01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:04,840 Speaker 1: would ever vote for legalization, even though they have two 1394 01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:10,120 Speaker 1: sons that are chronic marijuana smokers. Uh and uh. I 1395 01:21:10,160 --> 01:21:14,200 Speaker 1: think it's because they were adults during the Nixon years 1396 01:21:14,280 --> 01:21:17,800 Speaker 1: when he convinced them what an awful, terrible thing this was, 1397 01:21:18,520 --> 01:21:20,720 Speaker 1: and that's what they still have in their mind, the 1398 01:21:20,840 --> 01:21:24,320 Speaker 1: myth is still very much alive of what marijuana is. 1399 01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:27,160 Speaker 1: And you know it's a boogeyman that like, oh they're 1400 01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:33,640 Speaker 1: gonna start doing other joys. Zero zero want to do cocaine, 1401 01:21:34,240 --> 01:21:37,479 Speaker 1: LSD any of the other drugs. Just being and I'm 1402 01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:40,920 Speaker 1: a huge pophead, but I'm a huge pope because I 1403 01:21:40,960 --> 01:21:43,639 Speaker 1: love pot. That doesn't make me want to do like, 1404 01:21:43,720 --> 01:21:46,720 Speaker 1: let's throw my body into another weird state that I 1405 01:21:46,840 --> 01:21:48,800 Speaker 1: might not be able to control. I know how I 1406 01:21:48,840 --> 01:21:51,160 Speaker 1: am on weed, and I'm the best me when I'm 1407 01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:55,040 Speaker 1: on weed. Uh, But like if I get on LSD, 1408 01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:57,439 Speaker 1: god knows what's gonna happen. I don't want to go 1409 01:21:57,520 --> 01:22:01,000 Speaker 1: down that road. That's that's the thing. It reminds me 1410 01:22:01,080 --> 01:22:03,240 Speaker 1: of the little p s a s where someone's like 1411 01:22:03,479 --> 01:22:06,479 Speaker 1: when someone talks to their their drug dealer and hey, 1412 01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:10,640 Speaker 1: do you have any marijuana? Like, no, I'm out of marijuana. 1413 01:22:10,880 --> 01:22:14,160 Speaker 1: Try this heroin. No one would ever do that. No 1414 01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:17,120 Speaker 1: one's ever no one's ever gone well it is a drug. 1415 01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:25,160 Speaker 1: Well it goes back for them that I'll tell you what. 1416 01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:28,720 Speaker 1: Back in my drinking days. Uh, drinking makes you want 1417 01:22:28,720 --> 01:22:31,400 Speaker 1: to fight, It makes you want to argue, and then 1418 01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:34,519 Speaker 1: it also loosens your inhibitions enough that you want to 1419 01:22:34,560 --> 01:22:38,559 Speaker 1: start throwing punches. I have never, not once while being 1420 01:22:38,800 --> 01:22:42,520 Speaker 1: high on the marijuana, have ever wanted to do anything 1421 01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:47,760 Speaker 1: but sit down and discuss normally cool topics. Uh. It 1422 01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:50,920 Speaker 1: never wanted to throw a punch. It never made me 1423 01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:53,960 Speaker 1: want to go do something stupid that I wouldn't have 1424 01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:56,840 Speaker 1: done had I not been stoned. But that's all alcohol 1425 01:22:56,920 --> 01:22:59,760 Speaker 1: does is it makes you do the dumbest crap and 1426 01:22:59,800 --> 01:23:02,519 Speaker 1: get doing nothing but trouble. Plus you feel like crap 1427 01:23:02,600 --> 01:23:05,559 Speaker 1: the next day. And man, there's no such thing as 1428 01:23:05,600 --> 01:23:08,679 Speaker 1: a weed hangover because I've pushed it to the limits 1429 01:23:08,680 --> 01:23:12,360 Speaker 1: and I've never woken up the next day going, oh man, 1430 01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:17,000 Speaker 1: that last. I'll tell you what. I'm turning thirty four 1431 01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:19,800 Speaker 1: pretty soon. And I had just a little bit to 1432 01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:24,120 Speaker 1: drink the other day. Yeah, nightmare. And that's why I 1433 01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:27,280 Speaker 1: stopped drinking, is that I my love of alcohol did 1434 01:23:27,280 --> 01:23:32,200 Speaker 1: not end. Alcohol's love of meat ended. It became a 1435 01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:35,160 Speaker 1: one way relationship instead of a two way. And I 1436 01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:39,160 Speaker 1: know what, I'm not wanted anymore. So I took my 1437 01:23:39,240 --> 01:23:43,960 Speaker 1: belongings out of sweet Lady Boost's apartment and there was 1438 01:23:44,160 --> 01:23:47,000 Speaker 1: Mary Jane waiting for me on the street corner. Oh Man, 1439 01:23:47,640 --> 01:23:51,680 Speaker 1: serial monogamous took me right into green embrace, and I 1440 01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:55,960 Speaker 1: shall never go back. Well, what one thing I'm finding 1441 01:23:56,040 --> 01:23:58,920 Speaker 1: interesting about these conversations is that more and more people 1442 01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:01,439 Speaker 1: seem to beat regard listen whether or not they personally 1443 01:24:01,560 --> 01:24:06,000 Speaker 1: use weed in any form, you know, uh, Typically, more 1444 01:24:06,040 --> 01:24:08,760 Speaker 1: and more people seem to be saying, well, what's the 1445 01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 1: big what's the big deal? Like, when's the last time 1446 01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:17,760 Speaker 1: that a crime related to the nature of this substance, 1447 01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:19,600 Speaker 1: not to the law surrounding it, but but to the 1448 01:24:19,640 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 1: inherent nature of the substance. When's the last time that 1449 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 1: caused a crime? Everybody currently in our society's to say, 1450 01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:29,479 Speaker 1: the United States, everybody who wants to smoke weed right 1451 01:24:29,520 --> 01:24:34,040 Speaker 1: now is already smoking weed. It's there's not the illegality 1452 01:24:34,080 --> 01:24:37,200 Speaker 1: of it isn't stopping anybody because it's so easy to 1453 01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:40,840 Speaker 1: get so And the problem is is now it's so 1454 01:24:40,880 --> 01:24:43,840 Speaker 1: easy to get that if high schoolers want to smoke weed, 1455 01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:47,200 Speaker 1: they can go get it. If it's made legal and regulated, 1456 01:24:47,280 --> 01:24:49,880 Speaker 1: suddenly that becomes a little more difficult because then they 1457 01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:51,880 Speaker 1: got to get a guy to go into a store 1458 01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:54,280 Speaker 1: to pick some up and then give that back to 1459 01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:58,280 Speaker 1: the kid on the outside. It's weird. It's like, you know, 1460 01:24:58,360 --> 01:25:00,439 Speaker 1: hanging out inside the seven eleven and to get some 1461 01:25:00,479 --> 01:25:02,840 Speaker 1: older guy to buy you a beer. It's just gonna 1462 01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:04,960 Speaker 1: mess up at some point, but it's not going to 1463 01:25:05,080 --> 01:25:07,879 Speaker 1: knock the black market out entire it won't. But it'll 1464 01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:10,080 Speaker 1: put a good step in there in the middle. That's 1465 01:25:10,960 --> 01:25:13,439 Speaker 1: your game. It's weird to think about. If it does 1466 01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:19,160 Speaker 1: become legal, imagine buying bootleg alcohol off of somebody like 1467 01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:21,360 Speaker 1: on the street. But you could you could just go 1468 01:25:21,400 --> 01:25:23,439 Speaker 1: into a liquor store and get some alcohol. Or there's 1469 01:25:23,479 --> 01:25:26,120 Speaker 1: a guy that you know that has some, but he 1470 01:25:26,160 --> 01:25:31,600 Speaker 1: calls it jin still fast Jimmy with the still. That 1471 01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:34,559 Speaker 1: is really interesting. I wonder how that that would affect 1472 01:25:34,640 --> 01:25:37,320 Speaker 1: the black market. Well, that's still that still does happen 1473 01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:41,720 Speaker 1: because this would be heavily taxed. And so even after prohibition, 1474 01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:45,280 Speaker 1: there were people who kept like cornmash stills. We're going 1475 01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:48,200 Speaker 1: all the way back around, uh corn mash stills to 1476 01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:51,920 Speaker 1: um to avoid pain, any kind of tacks on it. Exactly. 1477 01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:55,559 Speaker 1: It will still happen where people will be growing. And 1478 01:25:55,640 --> 01:25:58,439 Speaker 1: so let's say it's legal, and then then it becomes like, well, 1479 01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:01,240 Speaker 1: where is your farming license? Order farm this? Now it's 1480 01:26:01,240 --> 01:26:03,880 Speaker 1: a crop. You can't sell corn to people on the 1481 01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:08,000 Speaker 1: street just from your growing in your backyard. Technically, uh, 1482 01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:10,040 Speaker 1: you know, we you shouldn't be able to grow this 1483 01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:12,479 Speaker 1: other crop because we don't know what you're doing with it, 1484 01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:15,400 Speaker 1: and it's a regulated thing. People are always going to 1485 01:26:15,479 --> 01:26:18,320 Speaker 1: grow their own, you know. That's they we have to 1486 01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:21,800 Speaker 1: now out of necessity. So that's you know, and there's 1487 01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:24,040 Speaker 1: a huge industry on grow your own you know what 1488 01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:25,880 Speaker 1: I mean, Hydroponic kits and all that kind of stuff. 1489 01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:28,400 Speaker 1: A huge industry. And the only thing we're not allowed 1490 01:26:28,400 --> 01:26:30,240 Speaker 1: to do is put a seed in the ground and 1491 01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:33,360 Speaker 1: wait for it to grow up into a grow and 1492 01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:35,559 Speaker 1: then take a flower off and put it in our body. 1493 01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:38,080 Speaker 1: It's always weird to me as you it's like you've 1494 01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:41,120 Speaker 1: got these like research chemicals they call them, like lab 1495 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:44,639 Speaker 1: chemicals that are legal for a time because they're so new. Right, 1496 01:26:44,640 --> 01:26:47,120 Speaker 1: Like let's talk about like the bath salts epidemic, remember 1497 01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:48,840 Speaker 1: that where it like you know that some of that 1498 01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:52,320 Speaker 1: was debunked, but it was like a really potent like 1499 01:26:52,680 --> 01:26:55,479 Speaker 1: amphetamine more or less that was causing people to do 1500 01:26:56,920 --> 01:27:02,200 Speaker 1: pretty crazy violent stuff and like total dissociative properties. Right. 1501 01:27:02,320 --> 01:27:05,599 Speaker 1: But again that stuff it was legal when they were 1502 01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:07,519 Speaker 1: doing it, and then you know, and then the d 1503 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:10,840 Speaker 1: A catches up, figures it out, makes it illegal. But 1504 01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 1: things are moving so fast with like sign researchers that 1505 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:16,880 Speaker 1: kind of come up with these byproducts from whatever they're doing, 1506 01:27:16,880 --> 01:27:20,160 Speaker 1: I guess, and then figure someone figures how they can 1507 01:27:20,160 --> 01:27:22,120 Speaker 1: market it as some kind of like a quick higher 1508 01:27:22,160 --> 01:27:25,280 Speaker 1: or designer drug. Look at the opioid issue we have 1509 01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:31,200 Speaker 1: far has people hooked on basically heroin in the form 1510 01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:33,680 Speaker 1: of a pill that came to them in you know, 1511 01:27:33,800 --> 01:27:36,200 Speaker 1: as a pain pill to deal with their pain, and 1512 01:27:36,240 --> 01:27:40,800 Speaker 1: they're getting it for under like downplaying it too doctors, 1513 01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:44,960 Speaker 1: Like literally the corporations are saying to doctors, that's fine, 1514 01:27:45,080 --> 01:27:48,559 Speaker 1: it's fine, pass it out. It's perfectly legal. Yet if 1515 01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:51,720 Speaker 1: you grow it's completely just grows wild. We never did 1516 01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:54,120 Speaker 1: anything to it. I mean that we have now, but 1517 01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:57,640 Speaker 1: like then, we just made other pretty flowers that have 1518 01:27:57,880 --> 01:28:01,960 Speaker 1: crazier effects than they used to. Right. I have a 1519 01:28:02,640 --> 01:28:08,639 Speaker 1: have two fun facts about marijuana. One in Bhutan, the 1520 01:28:08,760 --> 01:28:12,439 Speaker 1: very small Himalayan kingdom, it grows wild in the ditches 1521 01:28:12,840 --> 01:28:15,880 Speaker 1: and it's it's legal if the people want to smoke it, 1522 01:28:16,120 --> 01:28:18,240 Speaker 1: but they don't. They feed it to the pigs, so 1523 01:28:18,280 --> 01:28:21,120 Speaker 1: it may have the most relaxed pigs on the planet. 1524 01:28:21,320 --> 01:28:24,920 Speaker 1: Their their pork is probably delicious. I was like, oh 1525 01:28:24,960 --> 01:28:28,640 Speaker 1: my god, not traumatized by any of its life. This 1526 01:28:28,680 --> 01:28:32,960 Speaker 1: is the most amazing pork burrito I've ever had. And 1527 01:28:33,040 --> 01:28:37,240 Speaker 1: the second one is that apparently um marijuana is technically 1528 01:28:37,400 --> 01:28:41,559 Speaker 1: legal in North Korea, which wouldn't expect from such a 1529 01:28:41,560 --> 01:28:46,000 Speaker 1: totalitarian regime, but apparently that's the one that's I don't 1530 01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:48,720 Speaker 1: know what kind of day, you know, Kim Millsung and 1531 01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:52,120 Speaker 1: Kim John when was having when somebody came to him 1532 01:28:52,120 --> 01:28:54,439 Speaker 1: and maybe it was like later in the afternoon on 1533 01:28:54,479 --> 01:28:57,559 Speaker 1: a Friday, and they're like, hey, uh so we've we've 1534 01:28:57,600 --> 01:28:59,920 Speaker 1: got that, we shot the people they want to shot, 1535 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:03,519 Speaker 1: and where are you at with the weed? And he's like, 1536 01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:07,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, just letting him smoke. Let's do it. 1537 01:29:07,160 --> 01:29:09,320 Speaker 1: Is it on Is it on their list of grasses 1538 01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:13,800 Speaker 1: that the citizens are They suggest the citizens that they 1539 01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:16,160 Speaker 1: eat because there's no food. Oh, that's a great question. 1540 01:29:17,320 --> 01:29:22,640 Speaker 1: It is said that that is there is a yeah, 1541 01:29:22,720 --> 01:29:26,040 Speaker 1: what a what a great country that is we being 1542 01:29:26,120 --> 01:29:32,920 Speaker 1: legal or not? But even even the DPRK, even North Korea, 1543 01:29:33,360 --> 01:29:36,800 Speaker 1: they'll let you posyah said that, Kim Jong Hoon to 1544 01:29:36,960 --> 01:29:40,160 Speaker 1: let you do it? Yeah, why can't we? And so 1545 01:29:40,439 --> 01:29:45,000 Speaker 1: you know that dude smoking look at that haircut, wild 1546 01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:49,040 Speaker 1: and crazy? Y Yeah, I'm sure that what's his name? 1547 01:29:49,120 --> 01:29:52,840 Speaker 1: The basketball tennis? Oh yeah, it isn't just showing up 1548 01:29:52,840 --> 01:30:01,240 Speaker 1: with autographed photographs. I'm sweetweed. Come on, and at least seeds, 1549 01:30:01,640 --> 01:30:06,160 Speaker 1: so we see again what's happening is that legislation is 1550 01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:11,320 Speaker 1: typically outpaced by social evolution and technology. So is this 1551 01:30:11,479 --> 01:30:14,320 Speaker 1: an artifact a at different time these sorts of laws? 1552 01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:16,920 Speaker 1: And if so, what is what is the future? What 1553 01:30:16,920 --> 01:30:18,960 Speaker 1: what do you guys think is Is it eventually going 1554 01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:22,160 Speaker 1: to be nationwide? I think it will, and it's gonna 1555 01:30:22,200 --> 01:30:24,320 Speaker 1: be like everything, It's going to be the dollars that 1556 01:30:24,400 --> 01:30:26,800 Speaker 1: speak the loudest, right, They're going to realize that, Oh 1557 01:30:26,800 --> 01:30:28,800 Speaker 1: my god, look at the tax revenue we can get 1558 01:30:28,840 --> 01:30:31,920 Speaker 1: if we just legalize this damn plant that has never 1559 01:30:31,960 --> 01:30:34,639 Speaker 1: been a problem. And they all smoke it anyway in Washington, 1560 01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:41,120 Speaker 1: So d it's it's legal in a very city that 1561 01:30:42,320 --> 01:30:46,520 Speaker 1: makes the laws and there's no problems. They're not experiencing 1562 01:30:47,560 --> 01:30:53,160 Speaker 1: gang violence because of pot those maniacs. Yeah, so you know, 1563 01:30:53,240 --> 01:30:56,160 Speaker 1: it's a so this breed offully you know, the old 1564 01:30:56,280 --> 01:30:58,679 Speaker 1: Nixon era and everything just they just have to die 1565 01:30:58,680 --> 01:31:01,000 Speaker 1: out or at the time of them dying out. Now, 1566 01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:03,280 Speaker 1: if humanity can make it past this next three and 1567 01:31:03,320 --> 01:31:06,599 Speaker 1: a half years, uh to where we'll be a more 1568 01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:09,960 Speaker 1: enlightened creature hopefully on the other side, and then maybe 1569 01:31:09,960 --> 01:31:12,920 Speaker 1: it'll all drop. I really thought that that was should 1570 01:31:12,920 --> 01:31:14,880 Speaker 1: have been not to get into politics, but that should 1571 01:31:14,880 --> 01:31:18,840 Speaker 1: have been Obama's final thing. It's just going like it's 1572 01:31:18,920 --> 01:31:20,680 Speaker 1: legal and I'm out of here so I can go 1573 01:31:20,760 --> 01:31:25,480 Speaker 1: puppa dube on Hawaii. Yeah, because typically regardless, yeah, regardless 1574 01:31:25,520 --> 01:31:29,559 Speaker 1: of their specific ideology, that is the part where whoever 1575 01:31:29,720 --> 01:31:32,000 Speaker 1: is the president at the very end, they're like, I'm 1576 01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:36,200 Speaker 1: gonna pardon everybody. We're popping bottles. You know what's legal 1577 01:31:36,280 --> 01:31:39,000 Speaker 1: now if you want to touch a buffalo inappropriately, go 1578 01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:42,880 Speaker 1: for it. About but it would be like three guys 1579 01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:47,360 Speaker 1: like they're like, you know, I didn't like him the 1580 01:31:47,400 --> 01:31:50,320 Speaker 1: first the first three years and eleven months, but he 1581 01:31:50,360 --> 01:31:53,599 Speaker 1: really came through on that buffalo front.
