Speaker 3: I looked over. It was one of those where by
Speaker 3: the time I wanted to book because it's so close
Speaker 3: to the holidays. It's just everybody else was like being disrespectful.
Speaker 3: I guess I'm gonna take a horse flight spirit.
Speaker 2: The spirit is the real for horse spirits. The reason
Speaker 2: I had to wear all my clothes plane way.
Speaker 3: You told me about that always because you were smart.
Speaker 2: It's a smart.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say it's.
Speaker 2: Bavvy in a way to where I got to where

Speaker 3: Brother, if we had it, we'd give.
Speaker 2: It to Come on fresh out, baby hit me on
Speaker 2: the fifteenth, I might we got library books to return.
Speaker 3: We ain't gonna do it.
Speaker 2: Come on, I got DVDs from the library. Remember doing that? Oh,
Speaker 2: I do remember doing that. That was a big time.
Speaker 3: That was huge if you had a good library nearby. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you hit a lig You know.
Speaker 2: What hurt me was that the library had DVDs before
Speaker 2: I did. Like, the library had DVDs before I had
Speaker 2: a player in my home. We were mad late on it. Though.
Speaker 3: That's not good to be behind the government.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's not a good sign when the government is
Speaker 6: willing to invest in.
Speaker 2: This huge for you. And my mom is still like,
Speaker 2: I just don't know. I just don't know that hysterical.
Speaker 3: I never returned anything to the library.
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, it was a horrible, horrible civil servant. Okay,
Speaker 2: I want to talk some of you were a library though.
Speaker 1: Oh, I mean in Kansas City, like pretty like normally
Speaker 1: my mom still go to the library to print stuff and.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah it's still I fight the library really and
Speaker 2: you can vote.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can vote there too.
Speaker 2: Exactly. I voted in a library last election. You went
Speaker 2: to the library and voting.
Speaker 3: We usually go to like some school that they've taken
Speaker 3: off for a gymnasium.
Speaker 2: I like that too for us. Actually the library. Oh boy,
Speaker 2: who is a fan and offer to give me a
Speaker 2: library tour? And I forgot to do that. Shout out
Speaker 2: to the man who works in the Denver Library the
Speaker 2: downtown you know who you are. I'm sorry I didn't
Speaker 2: get that tour.
Speaker 3: He was just going to give you a tour of
Speaker 3: the library like another time. But yeah, but like why
Speaker 3: do I sounds like you want to get a kidnapped.
Speaker 2: You want to come in and just see what we
Speaker 2: got going on? Being national d He wasn't. He was
Speaker 2: like he was like hey, he was like, this is
Speaker 2: my ship. If you want you come in, I'll show you.
Speaker 3: Was this like a nice library?
Speaker 2: Yeah it wasn't. I feel like you're thinking.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, is he a librarian.
Speaker 2: He was a library where people go for books more
Speaker 2: than Wi Fi.
Speaker 3: But is he a librarian?
Speaker 2: I think he was running the whole ship. I don't think.
Speaker 2: I also think that's an outdated term. I think it's
Speaker 2: like I think it's like garbage man or stewardess. We
Speaker 2: don't say librarians, and yes we do. I think he
Speaker 2: was a book ass nigga. I think that's what his
Speaker 2: card said. He said, doctor Dewey. That's so yeah, yeah, all.
Speaker 3: Right man, Yeah, I think that sounds cool. And if
Speaker 3: you're ever Denver, if you're back in Denver, I think
Speaker 3: you should hit up your boy.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm back and not going to the library though. Damn,
Speaker 2: but I have a conspiracy. I'm sorry, that's not.
Speaker 3: What Yeah, go ahead, no please.
Speaker 2: I'm starting to think this three quarter zip thing is
Speaker 2: a sy op to get it's all used to wearing
Speaker 2: uniforms in the future, because done it seemed like it
Speaker 2: kind of popped up out of nowhere. It seemed like
Speaker 2: it popped out out of nowhere. It's not really that cool.
Speaker 2: I mean, grant, I just wore a three quarter zip
Speaker 2: to a wedding. I'm not like, mm hm, you know,
Speaker 2: better than it? Not not better than it at all,
Speaker 2: but it just feels like a weird It also feels
Speaker 2: like respectability coded. You might be you know, what I'm saying,
Speaker 2: like you might be all in because like I think
Speaker 2: kids dressed like assholes. We all know that, but like
Speaker 2: I respect their right to do it exactly like what
Speaker 2: like like sucking it up and being like nah, and
Speaker 2: there's like a tech nerd.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 1: I was literally watching a TV show last night to
Speaker 1: go to bed, and because of all the tiktoks and everything,
Speaker 1: I saw a kid going to sleep in one of
Speaker 1: those sweaters that have like the zip, like the three
Speaker 1: My mind immediately went to, that's.
Speaker 3: A nice three quarter zip.
Speaker 2: That's what they want.
Speaker 3: It is slipping in.
Speaker 2: That's what they want because they want you to feel
Speaker 2: like and I feel like it's getting coded at me
Speaker 2: specifically because it's like, don't buy a Nike Tech, buy
Speaker 2: a three quarter exact and they know that's the exact
Speaker 2: age I'm at where I'm like, it's cold out, Am
Speaker 2: I going? Am I going through? You know what I mean?
Speaker 2: That's crazy.
Speaker 3: I will say that I think fashion in general has
Speaker 3: hit this weird spot where everybody is dressing like a
Speaker 3: dork and like not nerdy. I think there's like a
Speaker 3: distinction that has now happened where it's like it is
Speaker 3: full like big weird paints and.
Speaker 2: Chunky shoes, silhouettes. Yeah, it is.
Speaker 3: That is fashion in a way that makes you do
Speaker 3: go like, damn, they do want us to dress like
Speaker 3: losers so that so that we just all get comfortable
Speaker 3: with being made small.
Speaker 2: It feels bro It feels fucked up because even like
Speaker 2: the kids who are copying the two thousands aesthetic, they're
Speaker 2: dressing like people. We didn't like that exactly, Like they're
Speaker 2: not dressing like the coolest kid in they're doing like
Speaker 2: the kid you want to punch them?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: And that's like there is something to that, right, that's
Speaker 2: a bomber. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Man, I mean you guys were in school in like
Speaker 3: the early twenty.
Speaker 2: We're twenty eight.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're pretty young guys.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're a young young guys.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't know why you would. I don't know why
Speaker 2: you would say that, because.
Speaker 3: You guys are around the same ages like my cousins.
Speaker 2: Nine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll go with that.
Speaker 6: You're older, cover you're a little cuss yea exactly exact.
Speaker 3: Arthur was off the air for me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Arthur was very much on the air.
Speaker 3: Not for me.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm real young yo, Arthur, is the lie now,
Speaker 2: I think you're lying for your yeah six seven demon
Speaker 2: slayer bitch, Come on, come.
Speaker 3: On, social lions. Yeah, just hanging out. Yeah, well, my goodness,
Speaker 3: my little fans like it.
Speaker 2: I get sturdy that do that? That's funny.
Speaker 3: We should we should intro our guess we right into it? Yeah, no,
Speaker 3: we we just start this is. There's no formality to this,
Speaker 3: and we apologize for that, but we will not change.
Speaker 3: We cannot change this is. This is that's how we
Speaker 3: got so rich. That's how the money was made. These
Speaker 3: art pieces did not buy themselves.
Speaker 2: Wow. Man, you know this is the biggest collection of
Speaker 2: black memoir in West West of the West Coast County.
Speaker 1: This is this right here is an artifact. I remember
Speaker 1: when this was supposed to be published, that book, it
Speaker 1: never came out.
Speaker 2: So the fact that you guys sat the book never
Speaker 2: came out.
Speaker 3: The book came out. But if I did, it came out.
Speaker 2: If I came out, and then I say, I read
Speaker 2: it by proxy.
Speaker 1: I have a memory of like the press, not the
Speaker 1: press run, but like when every news person was talking
Speaker 1: about it. Me and my dad, who I barely talked
Speaker 1: to on the phone, and we talked about.
Speaker 3: This repaired your relationship with your father a little bit.
Speaker 2: I think that's a side effect that he wasn't ready
Speaker 2: for it. But I think a lot of people probably
Speaker 2: had that story.
Speaker 3: I think a lot of people came together via OJ A.
Speaker 2: Lot of Dad's called sons. Can you believe this?
Speaker 3: Look, we haven't spoken in a while, but this has
Speaker 3: been on my mind. Yeah, and I've run out of
Speaker 3: other people to call.
Speaker 1: Yeah, now that we're talking, I'm sorry James didn't pick up,
Speaker 1: So now it's you.
Speaker 2: James is a dad's friend, Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 3: Our guest today. He's a hilarious comedian. You know him
Speaker 3: from All Kinds of Things Unstable on Netflix. You know
Speaker 3: him from the Kevin Lange Show. You know him from
Speaker 3: his own stand up. He is on tour right now
Speaker 3: with Hermann Rice. He's a wonderful guest. We're happy he's here.
Speaker 3: Give it up for Aaron Branch. Everybody you call him,
Speaker 3: it supposed to be here? Well I can't.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 7: Like that.
Speaker 2: That's hard. It was.
Speaker 3: You'd be a fool to turn that down.
Speaker 2: Are both good things to do on today? Catch the
Speaker 2: bus I've had that day and sing gospel music.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the same time.
Speaker 2: That day singing Mary Mary on the book. That song
Speaker 2: got popular. Praised him song.
Speaker 3: I I thought I liked gospel music because of that.
Speaker 2: They almost got me a few times gospel music. Same
Speaker 2: Kirk Franklin almost got me when they made that B. E.
Speaker 2: T Gospel Show.
Speaker 3: Yeah, me tuned into that every single week.
Speaker 2: It was like American idol forgot. That was genius. That's
Speaker 2: really smart. BT had some good ideas.
Speaker 1: They had a couple of There was like a two
Speaker 1: to three year period where their programming was really on point.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they started AI whats world huh new conspiracy?
Speaker 3: Look, man, if you're not going to take this seriously,
Speaker 3: I don't even know what we're doing here, big dog.
Speaker 3: If you just make up his nigga said, see this world, Aaron,
Speaker 3: you came to us with a conspiracy theory that did that.
Speaker 3: We are very excited about. It's one that has been
Speaker 3: on our Uh. We have a list that is our
Speaker 3: sort of extra weird list that we sometimes share with
Speaker 3: guests who have not thought of an idea. And then
Speaker 3: this came your way and you were like, oh, hell yeah,
Speaker 3: let's talk about this. You said, my mama told me
Speaker 3: the masillium network theory, tell me everything, you know, begin
Speaker 3: first breakdown for our listeners what that even is.
Speaker 1: Yes, so Masolium is the idea of a network a
Speaker 1: fun guy that communicate with each other, usually underground through
Speaker 1: their roots. Right, So the way that a mushroom is
Speaker 1: built in a lot of ways, it's actually kind of similar.
Speaker 2: It's actually the exactly Sorry, it's the opposite to.
Speaker 1: Humans, but kind of similar in that way also, Right,
Speaker 1: So we work from the brain, we go and we.
Speaker 2: Go down right right, right.
Speaker 3: They go from I believe it's from the bottom, and
Speaker 3: then they go up.
Speaker 2: Some of us do work way though. What do you mean.
Speaker 3: He's a he's a first kind of.
Speaker 8: Talk about it, talk about it, talk about it, right,
Speaker 8: ideas started his toes.
Speaker 2: All stuff comes from the bottom, and.
Speaker 1: They're like, I got a big idea feeling. So what
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't realize is that fun guy
Speaker 1: is really Erth's original organism.
Speaker 2: Mmmm. Okay, and they were black. You really would have
Speaker 2: been the best guess we've ever had.
Speaker 3: I was really down there. I know I reacted poorly
Speaker 3: to see this world, but I would have I was
Speaker 3: willing to listen to you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was really trying to be like they are musical.
Speaker 2: I was like trying to find something.
Speaker 1: But fungus themselves are actually pretty incredible. So they're kind
Speaker 1: of in a lot of ways like regulating like forests,
Speaker 1: wild areas. Really like you probably have seen a fungus
Speaker 1: just take over a fruit in your kitchen. It's pretty incredible.
Speaker 1: They have powers. Right, So a lot of fungus we
Speaker 1: probably are all familiar with, like psilocybin. So with the
Speaker 1: idea that saying so you can ingest a, I also
Speaker 1: have a stutter. So if I ever start stuttering sometimes,
Speaker 1: don't awkward, don't look at me like IMI, don't editors
Speaker 1: go crazy fucking So if you take that, it will
Speaker 1: literally create the effect of what you get from, Like
Speaker 1: you are literally like one with the earth and you're
Speaker 1: seeing colors and you're giggling with your friends having a
Speaker 1: fun time. Right, but there's other properties within other mushrooms
Speaker 1: that have other effects with how it I.
Speaker 3: Feel like I'm not explaining this like the exact way correctly.
Speaker 2: Long story short, you're doing good. You take in you.
Speaker 3: Take in a mushroom and an effect can happen.
Speaker 2: Right. Let me start from the top, no.
Speaker 3: Is let you restart this. I think I think we're
Speaker 3: exactly where we you need to be if I can
Speaker 3: help a little bit. I think what you're talking about
Speaker 3: is this network of communication between yes, between the fun guy,
Speaker 3: and also what I understand from the mysolium network theory
Speaker 3: is that they are then also able to utilize that
Speaker 3: communication to advance other life forms around them. Exactly like
Speaker 3: trees are able to nourish or know to help nourish
Speaker 3: nearby trees because of this network of communication that's happening
Speaker 3: under the earth.
Speaker 2: So can can my celium take over like an existing
Speaker 2: route network? Is my question?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 1: No, but let's say there is like a plant that
Speaker 1: they see as a threat within that general area. What
Speaker 1: they'll do is be like, Yo, we need to kill
Speaker 1: this thing. And so then the my celium network will
Speaker 1: then come in kill that plant off and then turn
Speaker 1: it into nutrition that will literally then feed the mysilium
Speaker 1: network for generations.
Speaker 3: Yeah, green is made of people, it's a lot of Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's a lot of communication underneath there.
Speaker 1: What they're actually able to do is pretty credible. And
Speaker 1: also what they're able to do, like that's kind of
Speaker 1: what I was trying to hit out with, Like the properties, right,
Speaker 1: So like there's some like there's some things you can take,
Speaker 1: like I believe it's like athletes will take it's a
Speaker 1: parasitic what is it called, I used to know the name,
Speaker 1: But you can take that fungus and it actually will
Speaker 1: start to improve like the athlete's performance, and it stems
Speaker 1: from it actually being like a mushroom.
Speaker 3: Right, So it has a lot of really great properties.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: My theory is.
Speaker 1: My theory is, and hear me out, there's fungus and
Speaker 1: parasites and everything. Are we zombies? Are we being controlled
Speaker 1: by mushrooms? At some point? Have we taken in a
Speaker 1: mushroom of some kind and it has taken over our
Speaker 1: system and they have literally gone into our bodies and
Speaker 1: we are literally just moving around. But I'm actually a mushroom.
Speaker 3: Meaning I think I'm in control of my body, but
Speaker 3: it's not. It's actually a parasite or a part Yes
Speaker 3: that I ate back on my head. Yeah, that's we
Speaker 3: all told for some reason, I guess, because.
Speaker 1: There are some mushrooms also that will do this with ants, right,
Speaker 1: Like they'll take over an ant's body they can then
Speaker 1: at that point control all of its limbs and then
Speaker 1: from there after a while, the mushroom will then start
Speaker 1: growing out of it once it's done, and then start
Speaker 1: its next little control of that area.
Speaker 2: We've seen this.
Speaker 1: In other organisms. Why can't that not be happening to us?
Speaker 3: Oh okay, now let me direct this your way. Are
Speaker 3: you you had heard of this theory before?
Speaker 2: Right? Yeah?
Speaker 3: And and is that the way that you had heard
Speaker 3: the theory?
Speaker 2: No, you added, I just heard it of the inground
Speaker 2: network added a lot too.
Speaker 3: The in ground network is not really a conspiracy theory.
Speaker 3: It is the truth. That's just that's legitimately like a thing.
Speaker 2: I've heard about that I haven't the idea of. Because
Speaker 2: here's my problem with the idea of the mushrooms having
Speaker 2: taken over us. A that means it would have to
Speaker 2: be transferred from mothers to be like the point of ingestion.
Speaker 2: Can't be every single individual person, right, It would have
Speaker 2: to be something that's transferred DNA wise like right, I.
Speaker 3: Mean after a while, I mean I see that as
Speaker 3: being a possibility.
Speaker 2: I mean, we know that.
Speaker 1: Certain things stay in the DNA, right, and then if
Speaker 1: you're born multiplied by your parents, right, those same things can.
Speaker 2: Still be in your system.
Speaker 3: Yeah, crack bam bam boom babies baby.
Speaker 2: So we know this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we know this.
Speaker 2: Mushrooms isn't new crack.
Speaker 7: We know this.
Speaker 2: And this is a conversation I've had with a lot
Speaker 2: of people actually, Like now we're back in my wheelhouse.
Speaker 2: I've talked to people about this. We're going We're going
Speaker 2: to get rich.
Speaker 3: Oh in this story, you're you're pitching it. You're not
Speaker 3: You're not threatening somebody that they're in danger. You're like, no, bro,
Speaker 3: we could be Yeah on the forefront Stringer Belle of Mushroom. Yes, yes,
Speaker 3: I had always heard this theory. Yes, And obviously The
Speaker 3: Last of Us is maybe the best example.
Speaker 2: That's how it spread in that, right, So in that
Speaker 2: in that game and then the show, the ways that
Speaker 2: zombies come to be is through the spread of the
Speaker 2: mushrooms or the fung gui rather sort of like creating
Speaker 2: this network that then sort of like poisons the human body, right,
Speaker 2: and they turn into these brain mushing whatever monster zombies.
Speaker 3: Your argument is that it's less likely that we are
Speaker 3: that we're going to turn into these crazy we already are.
Speaker 3: We already are sort of in that.
Speaker 2: I mean, so, how do you feel about the theory
Speaker 2: where people talk about human consciousness got expanded because of suicide.
Speaker 3: I think that there's an argument to be made. I
Speaker 3: think of those it's.
Speaker 2: Because that to me feels like a more realistic idea
Speaker 2: than we all are, like into art, because it seems
Speaker 2: like if you had this giant network, like the mycelium network,
Speaker 2: the idea of that is that it's all on the
Speaker 2: same page, and we're all still very individualistic, even like regionally.
Speaker 2: A thousands me to believe that it's not connected to
Speaker 2: the same Well, we don't know. Fungus can be different
Speaker 2: by region.
Speaker 1: You could have your California fungus had.
Speaker 3: You got your New York, you got your New York.
Speaker 3: You see what I'm saying, different modeling.
Speaker 2: That's okay, that's now I'm back in.
Speaker 3: I will say that that as you asked about sort
Speaker 3: of like this expansion of the mind, it reminds me
Speaker 3: a lot of the story of Adam and Eve m
Speaker 3: and talk about it and maybe and I like this energy,
Speaker 3: this is good, this good Queen Church energy.
Speaker 2: Talk about it.
Speaker 3: But it almost makes it feel as if the apple
Speaker 3: stands more as an allegory for something else, like like
Speaker 3: like the like drugs, like sort of like the expansion
Speaker 3: of one's.
Speaker 2: Mind that I thought it was. I always thought it
Speaker 2: was like pussy.
Speaker 3: I think part of it, yes, for sure, that was
Speaker 3: the original interpretation.
Speaker 2: Of the apple was pussy.
Speaker 3: But I think the first dude who did drugs was
Speaker 3: just trying ship. Yes, I think the third dude who
Speaker 3: did drugs wanted some pussy.
Speaker 2: I think those numbers are fair. I actually will take
Speaker 2: that guy.
Speaker 3: He was just he just picked up probably hungry. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it was really weird.
Speaker 2: Yeah. It was a guy and he was like, he
Speaker 2: told the second guy, Hey, this got weird.
Speaker 3: Second dude already kicks it with him. You don't got
Speaker 3: nowhere else to go?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you ate that, I'll.
Speaker 3: Lead it with you.
Speaker 2: Yeah. The third guy watched how he was and he
Speaker 2: was like and then he was like, I was supposed
Speaker 2: to hang out with these girls on Friday night anywhere.
Speaker 3: Taking he looked real comfortable with himself. Was that wouldn't
Speaker 3: mind being so comfortable?
Speaker 2: He was like, damn, I was just gonna take her
Speaker 2: to throw stuff off the rock.
Speaker 3: That's called the Book of coup, That's what that is.
Speaker 2: I like that.
Speaker 3: Yea third guy, third guy, third guy is where we
Speaker 3: really found innovation. You don't puttish at him an even No, No,
Speaker 3: that's just two dumb dumbs trying stuff.
Speaker 2: Who the apple? The apple? So maybe maybe it was
Speaker 2: pussy because you know, guy doesn't seem like that or
Speaker 2: girls eating pussy.
Speaker 3: I don't think you think that She figured out she
Speaker 3: she might be lesbian.
Speaker 2: She figured she's gonna get that nut off.
Speaker 3: He's like, not, not in my goddamn house.
Speaker 2: Just learned if you put your mouth on it.
Speaker 3: You guys ruined the Bible from me. I will never
Speaker 3: be able to bring this is just because when we
Speaker 3: read the literature in a climax, she.
Speaker 9: Said for me, shut my shut.
Speaker 2: She said with his mouth, which mouth?
Speaker 3: That's wild. I wonder if you feel that these mushrooms
Speaker 3: have taken over what what do you think is their
Speaker 3: goal with us? Because we aren't doing right by the planning.
Speaker 2: That's my that's mine. That's my big thing about it.
Speaker 1: I don't see here's my whole thing, right. I mean
Speaker 1: obviously like we are not doing right about the planet.
Speaker 1: All right, we do not know that. But Bill Gates
Speaker 1: had a quote that pissed me off a few years ago.
Speaker 3: Right, we're gonna divert for a little bit within the
Speaker 3: same thing.
Speaker 2: To do you hear what we talk about. The version
Speaker 2: can't anything, you could go anywhere.
Speaker 3: Are you filiar with this?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I am okay, great, the black dooey houses. I wouldn't
Speaker 2: call him.
Speaker 3: What was it that he faked his license?
Speaker 2: It was something like that too.
Speaker 3: He faked everything everything. He could be a gun of
Speaker 3: college and that's what and had a number a number
Speaker 3: of clients. I remember the number of patients.
Speaker 1: Didn't He just got better than he better out of
Speaker 1: prison recently and then they called him again.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he went back in and then he went back in.
Speaker 3: I don't think he was back being a college.
Speaker 2: He was doing something else with the medicine.
Speaker 3: But he was doing more.
Speaker 2: We don't need a machine.
Speaker 10: And I was just question myself, I don't hear anything
Speaker 10: but listening, I'm not sure.
Speaker 3: Try later.
Speaker 1: That is really funny. That is so, I mean, it's
Speaker 1: so I can see the entire thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, were painting a portrait, but we were saying.
Speaker 1: Bill Gates had a quote a few years ago where
Speaker 1: he said the human species is like a fungus, okay,
Speaker 1: meaning that we are multiplying and taking over the planet
Speaker 1: and not doing right about it.
Speaker 2: They also said it the man in black.
Speaker 1: Really, so you're saying, Bill, I think stole a lot
Speaker 1: of them.
Speaker 2: It was like.
Speaker 3: By being fair, come on, that's not a hero.
Speaker 2: It was his idea to make windows. Ye took windows
Speaker 2: from somebody under the idea of like even he was
Speaker 2: like MS dots before that, right, and it was like
Speaker 2: you had to like code to get everywhere on a computer,
Speaker 2: and then windows is what made it easier for like.
Speaker 3: His jobs was the only og. I feel like that
Speaker 3: was actually coming up with the original life.
Speaker 2: He was not either he was a businessman. He was well,
Speaker 2: he wasn't. He wasn't wasney act man.
Speaker 1: I think I drank the kool aid on that because
Speaker 1: the idea that he would take an asset tab and
Speaker 1: was like iPads was a visionary.
Speaker 2: No, I think wasne act was a visionary man. I've
Speaker 2: been reading I've reading crazy about these tech guys. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I've been reading some crazy not this crazy book. Not
Speaker 2: one of the ones that I imagine that's what's in
Speaker 2: the book. Not one of the ones that's front facing.
Speaker 2: Is the hero, well, no one of them. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I was like this guy was like the guy who
Speaker 2: wrote this book was like an architect of a lot
Speaker 2: of the things that made it terrible. His whole thing
Speaker 2: is the idea that you should be paid for the
Speaker 2: data that you supplied to these companies. That would instead
Speaker 2: of like creating a wealth disparity, it would create a
Speaker 2: middle class people who could earn on the data they're
Speaker 2: giving these companies, so everything doesn't go to ship.
Speaker 1: Well that just makes sense though in a lot of
Speaker 1: ways too, because we're literally paying, we're putting we our
Speaker 1: data is quite literally putting on their families.
Speaker 2: His book is blowing me up, and I don't have
Speaker 2: anybody else to talk about. It was he worked, He
Speaker 2: worked with Apple with Steve Jobs, but he was he
Speaker 2: was like the real nerd behind him.
Speaker 3: He's still an Apple. Yeah, he was the the developer
Speaker 3: that Steve Jobs basically was like, I am going to
Speaker 3: come be the Michael Jordan of this ship, but without
Speaker 3: the talent. Like he was like, I will be front facing,
Speaker 3: I will make it branded, I will put on the
Speaker 3: turtleneck and the little glasses currently doing where Elon is
Speaker 3: just marketing.
Speaker 2: Elon's really good at marketing.
Speaker 1: But to say if he's actually I don't think he's
Speaker 1: actually a tech genius.
Speaker 2: I don't think he's just literally the marketing.
Speaker 1: He just there's this wild ship in order to be
Speaker 1: able to try to get the stock up. But he
Speaker 1: himself is not actually the one that's like behind it,
Speaker 1: like how do we make it?
Speaker 2: Make me a rocket? Right now? No, I don't think so.
Speaker 2: I don't have a.
Speaker 3: Great understanding of what people think he is a genius of.
Speaker 2: But he's cool.
Speaker 3: I think they thought he was cool until recently. Well
Speaker 3: I do. There are a lot of I have a
Speaker 3: few friends who work in tech who have assured me
Speaker 3: that he is like a brilliant person, so he is smart.
Speaker 3: That that is their claim. I don't have any evidence
Speaker 3: of it. He certainly doesn't behave like it. But apparently
Speaker 3: he's a smart dude who has like a lot of
Speaker 3: insight on development, but isn't like deck.
Speaker 2: He's not getting his hands dirty.
Speaker 3: He's just tweeting out wild shit or just able to
Speaker 3: like envision things that are possible that I'm not gonna
Speaker 3: make up some ship but that no, I think a
Speaker 3: facilitator is its own genius, right There is a type
Speaker 3: of genius to facilitation. I would argue, or at least
Speaker 3: my my reaction often when they tell me.
Speaker 2: That is.
Speaker 3: I think. I think there's a level of generosity they
Speaker 3: always give to a motherfucker with a billion dollars. Yeah,
Speaker 3: like I don't actually believe how to get a billion dollars. Well,
Speaker 3: once you have that, you all have to stay in
Speaker 3: the room.
Speaker 2: Yeah, even though it's all like speculative money. Anyways, I
Speaker 2: just hate.
Speaker 1: That at that point it becomes about resumes. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: will say that him and his brother, they did PayPal.
Speaker 1: They did the damn thing.
Speaker 3: On that, right, and he was early, right, and that
Speaker 3: was like late nineties.
Speaker 2: But so is that we're ready to guy? Right? He
Speaker 2: was in there too.
Speaker 3: There was a couple of people Peter t Yeah, I
Speaker 3: think Sean Oh, the guy from the Evil Dude justin Timberlake.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, man call it Facebook?
Speaker 1: Yeah, how about was that easy?
Speaker 2: That's how they're getting rich.
Speaker 3: I kind of think that is how they're getting rich.
Speaker 3: And we just haven't played that game.
Speaker 2: You want to see. You have to be able to
Speaker 2: put yourself in position to be the guy that says that.
Speaker 2: But it's like that fairenose lady right. Yeah, she didn't
Speaker 2: even she didn't even have a product, no, but she
Speaker 2: just like dropped her voice and was like, yeah, we
Speaker 2: could tell if you have diabetes and Walgreens and were
Speaker 2: like a billion dollars.
Speaker 3: But I think it's it's crazy because if that idea works,
Speaker 3: it's a billion dollars that she earned.
Speaker 1: But see, this is why I think there's racism within
Speaker 1: that too, Like what happened.
Speaker 3: To the Black Planet? What about the guy that made
Speaker 3: Black Planet? Where's that movie?
Speaker 2: Assassinated? You're saying like it's our game stop or something?
Speaker 2: Aunts and uncle?
Speaker 1: She I was sat next to her as she scrolled
Speaker 1: through Black Place, A.
Speaker 2: Sad, sad story. I need to talk about this.
Speaker 3: But what I'm saying is where is that movie? Where's
Speaker 3: the guy that was like you.
Speaker 2: Gonna write it your group?
Speaker 3: I don't know if I like him. Literally saw mister Drew. Listen,
Speaker 3: we all like Luda Chris, but I wouldn't play We're
Speaker 3: in't a mouth on my page. I'm just saying, we
Speaker 3: don't hear about those tech geniuses.
Speaker 1: Also, like we're like, where are they now?
Speaker 2: You invented? Black Planet has gone? We were talking about
Speaker 2: Black Plant. We talked about it maybe once a month.
Speaker 2: I feel like it comes up a lot. Weird comes up.
Speaker 3: You know, we're super young we both had.
Speaker 2: I did have a but you didn't want Black Planet.
Speaker 2: I was not sold on the idea of a social
Speaker 2: media page yet one Black Planet because I was late
Speaker 2: to even my space.
Speaker 3: I had one, but did not invest uh a monoicum
Speaker 3: of effort into making that bad boy like turn into something.
Speaker 2: You know who did invest this white girl? My friend
Speaker 2: fucked off a black plane. He met a white girl
Speaker 2: on Black Planet, and at the time, I just remember
Speaker 2: being like something about this is sinister, that's illegal, because
Speaker 2: it was like, this has probably gotta be this gotta
Speaker 2: be audacity. Oh five, yeah, six, yeah, And he was
Speaker 2: like I met it on black Planet, and I was.
Speaker 3: Like, also, that's that's late black planet. Yeah, black it's
Speaker 3: probably black planet. For me, was like oh three, oh four, yeah,
Speaker 3: this is oh five for sure.
Speaker 2: That five.
Speaker 1: You're just kind of getting like the rumblings of the
Speaker 1: people that couldn't find it.
Speaker 3: They were still on the white girls. Yeah, white girls
Speaker 3: like over there, that's a nightmare.
Speaker 2: I like that, Like it's nobody liked it, But nobody
Speaker 2: liked that.
Speaker 1: Why farmers only, I'm going to respect the fact that
Speaker 1: I should not be on that app.
Speaker 3: Why is it that you still feel like you should
Speaker 3: go on Black Planet.
Speaker 2: Why are you addressing it me like.
Speaker 3: He was on Black Planet?
Speaker 2: White girls?
Speaker 3: Look y'all white women. Doc, He's a sick motherfucker.
Speaker 2: No, I really didn't have I really didn't have a
Speaker 2: pay Would you do you think your Black Planet is
Speaker 2: still up? Like if we tried to find it, you
Speaker 2: didn't delete it. I don't think so. That would be crazy.
Speaker 2: But let me find your black Planet.
Speaker 3: That would be crazy. Black Planet. I'm gonna see if
Speaker 3: the website is still up, Like did somebody buy it
Speaker 3: at some point? I don't think anybody paid for Black Planet.
Speaker 3: I think I think somebody dropped Black Planet in the airport,
Speaker 3: and you dropped this.
Speaker 1: Oh it's still up here defining ourselves, our moment, our world.
Speaker 2: Type in Langston Kerman unless you have like a different
Speaker 2: name type away.
Speaker 3: You got mean at the end, but the language arts
Speaker 3: park probably right.
Speaker 1: Wait, I found it and let me hold you down
Speaker 1: play in the background.
Speaker 3: This is crazy boy boy.
Speaker 2: He could have done it.
Speaker 3: He had a run.
Speaker 2: Great. Yeah, whenever I hear that song, I'm like that,
Speaker 2: o Marion. Things should have worked better than it would.
Speaker 3: I think they're I think they're two tough individuals. To
Speaker 3: deal with, and I bet them together was a lot.
Speaker 2: I think the one is harder than the other. Though.
Speaker 3: Do you think Mario is harder than bo?
Speaker 2: I think was harder than this.
Speaker 3: He was a child star.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is full on diva a O. Marion always
Speaker 2: seems so cool.
Speaker 1: He still seems he's vegan now, Yeah, he seems nice.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say it, Fellas, and you're not gonna like
Speaker 3: this news. I think Mario is a tougher cookie. Wow,
Speaker 3: that's I think dumb boys from B two K.
Speaker 2: Don't care, you know, not so fresh, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: such so long they've been getting longer.
Speaker 3: Them boys from B two K don't care for him.
Speaker 3: I'm not saying they're good boys, but I am saying
Speaker 3: that if if you're in a group and three of
Speaker 3: the four are like fuck you, I start going.
Speaker 2: But if you're the star.
Speaker 3: Was he the David Rouffing of B two K? O, Mari,
Speaker 3: I that's tough. I think rasby my.
Speaker 2: Difficult. I think he was justin Timberlake, could be two K.
Speaker 3: I think that's true. I think it was just he
Speaker 3: was the objective star of Beach.
Speaker 2: I don't think it was just obvious.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think he was forcefully putting himself in
Speaker 3: the You could just they tried to look to every
Speaker 3: once in a while put Jay Bug towards the front,
Speaker 3: but you didn't. Nobody was rooting for that.
Speaker 2: It was all.
Speaker 3: And little Fizz didn't. He didn't have anything. And I
Speaker 3: don't nobody want what Rasby throwing. I think we can
Speaker 3: all agree. Yeah, if you thought Rasby was your favorite
Speaker 3: member of B two K, you're sick.
Speaker 11: What it is really when we look at classics, we
Speaker 11: just we really like oldies.
Speaker 3: We're different than y'all. We like, Yeah, that's different.

Speaker 3: widely speculated to be sexual, and another later explained by
Speaker 3: Nelly as a Saint Louis slang term for yes, bring
Speaker 3: it on them. Niggas don't say yes, bring it on.
Speaker 2: He's lying about that fire dog.
Speaker 3: The initial and interpretation was eat it.
Speaker 2: Smoke a little, wheeds it. It was good for your Wait,
Speaker 2: it was called eat it. That's what they're saying.
Speaker 3: The initial that that The initial interpretation was that e

Speaker 2: shit on the internet and then I'm like, oh, should
Speaker 2: I get the shirt? I'm like, make it moves by
Speaker 2: myself in the dark, firing it off, and then it
Speaker 2: comes to the house and then I'm like, god, damn it,
Speaker 2: that is actually so. But then you're in the bathroom
Speaker 2: with this new dumbass shirt on that you probably should
Speaker 2: have vetted, like.

Speaker 3: And that got me thinking about and you already brought
Speaker 3: some of this up about zombies specifically existing in other species. Yes,
Speaker 3: there are ten real life cases I found on a
Speaker 3: place called lives Live science dot com that breaks down
Speaker 3: ten real life instances where zombie like relationships sort of exist.
Speaker 2: Are they doing that Colombian prostitute dust?
Speaker 3: These are animals?
Speaker 6: So okay, so tell me about anything about what you're
Speaker 6: talking about.

Speaker 1: be Columbia of this plant that grows and like everyone around,
Speaker 1: like in the community knows they can just take that,
Speaker 1: do the plant and they get a little high.
Speaker 3: I wonder where that was.
Speaker 13: It sounds similar to that marijuana that was available pretty
Speaker 13: much everywhere northern California.
Speaker 2: Count Trinity County County.
Speaker 3: You didn't say anything that we haven't heard before.
Speaker 2: They call it the Emerald Triumph. Apparently you you smoke.
Speaker 3: It and then you get a little more chance. That
Speaker 3: life seems like it's more.
Speaker 2: You understand Reagan, because that shit does sound so good.
Speaker 3: When you're many high music hit it goes.
Speaker 2: I love being high in the airport and just like
Speaker 2: deep in my headphone and they don't know what I'm
Speaker 2: listening to. It's not what they think.

Speaker 2: Brother, That was not we it was I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't think that it was.
Speaker 3: I think you got laced to my man.
Speaker 1: I went to Hell and then Goofy's son Max from
Speaker 1: the Goofy movie. He's just hand down and pulled me
Speaker 1: back up to heaven. And after that, I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm done with this ship and I opened my eyes.
Speaker 3: I got bad news.
Speaker 2: But you did, PCP, I mean you, Pcpa, the only
Speaker 2: one I think a lot of people probably, I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't say this to be judgmental. I'm only wanting
Speaker 3: you to know that that is not what we does.
Speaker 3: And if that was your experience, and I do believe
Speaker 3: that happened to you, it was those individuals who gave
Speaker 3: it to you because that was that was laced with
Speaker 3: I believe.
Speaker 2: Those kids are millionaires.
Speaker 3: Now I'm still getting chicken tenders from my sets.
Speaker 2: So are they millionaires? Yeah?
Speaker 3: The rich kids where I grew up with, Damn, they
Speaker 3: really laced you that I went to private school.
Speaker 2: You don't think that that's what happens with weed, right?
Speaker 1: I stopped. I don't know, and my mom like, everyone's
Speaker 1: just having brother.
Speaker 3: I'm not right now, I'm in high this whole time,
Speaker 3: I'm in the room with you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I still got left.
Speaker 3: I haven't.
Speaker 2: I haven't got one.
Speaker 3: It's really funny in this conversation.
Speaker 2: I can't do it.
Speaker 3: I'm too scared to do it.
Speaker 2: That's okay, you don't have to do your first time. No, no,
Speaker 2: no no.
Speaker 1: I was like a stoner in high school and then
Speaker 1: I was mainteen and I was like I'm good on that.
Speaker 3: And I really never picked it up again.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's better. I don't want to bring you into
Speaker 2: a habit you don't need. But that's not what the
Speaker 2: weed's doing anymore anymore. Is crazy though. I mean even
Speaker 2: at that point, it's not what it was doing you
Speaker 2: just something bad happening. Ye bad. Somebody didn't take care
Speaker 2: of you like the should. That's crazy.
Speaker 3: It was a bummer and and what was hell like
Speaker 3: we're not going to delete it, fire and stuff.
Speaker 2: But then Max was like he's just down to grab
Speaker 2: up here.
Speaker 1: It just shows like I was literally a kid. I'm like,
Speaker 1: what's going on in my brain? Is insane?
Speaker 2: Wow?
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, brox Sayne was sexy as fun to me
Speaker 3: is yeah, of course she was Puerto Rican coded Mmm
Speaker 3: is that would you say? I don't like the way
Speaker 3: you said it, But yeah, I knew she was not white,
Speaker 3: but she wasn't black.
Speaker 2: She was Afro Caribbean.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it was. But her dad threw me
Speaker 3: off a little bit because he had that they always do. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he had that weird like kind of military cut.
Speaker 2: But he has studied this film. It was the first
Speaker 2: film as a child that I felt related to.
Speaker 3: Do you know why there's a conspiracy theory as to
Speaker 3: why actually is.
Speaker 1: But yeah, but there's a reason why that movie made
Speaker 1: such a difference in the black community because I was
Speaker 1: always wandering. No, it's not that I always wondered in
Speaker 1: my mind. I was like, why is it? Did some research.
Speaker 1: Come to find out, it's because obviously, like the nineties
Speaker 1: was like Disney's like.
Speaker 2: Going in America. No no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: That to me actually was what sparked my curiosity because
Speaker 1: it was always like me and my cousin's favorite movie. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then they made that and I was like, so
Speaker 1: this is a universal experience. Come to find out, it's
Speaker 1: because in the nineties Disney had like banger banger classics, right,
Speaker 1: we had like Lion King, and then we had like Aladdin.
Speaker 3: We had like you say, we Little Mermaid. I've heard
Speaker 3: them exactly exactly, I just saw.
Speaker 1: But they were making so much money from these movies,
Speaker 1: and what they decided to do was the DVD market,
Speaker 1: speaking of which was going crazy. So they're like, what
Speaker 1: have we made like cheap sequels that were just straight
Speaker 1: to on demand meaning like DVDs vhs is that we
Speaker 1: could just push out that you could just buy the
Speaker 1: store for like a fraction of the costs instead of
Speaker 1: going to the movies and the goofy movie.
Speaker 3: Both movies were a part of that program. You're saying
Speaker 3: it wasn't a theatrical release, It was not.
Speaker 2: It was all it was a theatrical release.
Speaker 1: I saw the well, the amount of sequels they were
Speaker 1: making were to be able to make it to where
Speaker 1: you had it.
Speaker 3: Literally it was munity faster, is what I'm trying to say.
Speaker 3: Because of every Disney sequel that I remember as the
Speaker 3: kid was straight to video. Yeah and a half exactly, Yeah,
Speaker 3: fucking Aladdin two and yeah Aladdin three.
Speaker 2: There's a far's.
Speaker 3: Return is Aladdin two, and then King of Thieves is
Speaker 3: Aladdin three. That's when his dad shows up.
Speaker 2: His dad is a can thieves.
Speaker 3: Literally, bro, Yeah, it might be Prince of Thieves, but
Speaker 3: one way or the other Latin three.
Speaker 1: But all those movies were being made and they were
Speaker 1: pushed out so like a lot of us saw them
Speaker 1: at daycare or like a lot of us saw them
Speaker 1: like after school programs because they were just cheap movies
Speaker 1: they would just put on in the background. And that
Speaker 1: movie Thieves, that movie in particular struck a nerve.
Speaker 2: For a goofy movie because I was a big fan
Speaker 2: of goof Troop the show.
Speaker 3: I love the goof Troop. What is that story?
Speaker 2: Is a story?
Speaker 3: Is incredible? No, they really, they really did their thing,
Speaker 3: and then they trying to make it. They stopped doing
Speaker 3: that thing immediately after. Yeah, you were like, we're done
Speaker 3: with it was for black people too, right, But that was.
Speaker 2: For dark skin.
Speaker 3: That was for dark skin.
Speaker 2: Dudes. Yes, okay, okay, comes down said, oh my god,
Speaker 2: it was like, okay, a lot of purple, a lot
Speaker 2: of purple. Away cleaning dunk oh Man Disney. That's the
Speaker 2: crazy ship. I've never heard anybody say. Don dudes, Couzy's
Speaker 2: name was dark.
Speaker 7: I don't know. Now.
Speaker 2: Now let's get dangerous. Sounds fucked up. Now it's now
Speaker 2: it feels conspiratory. That's that's the song.
Speaker 3: That turn on the flash. There are ten examples of
Speaker 3: parasites or fung gui taking over the bodies of animals
Speaker 3: in the Animal Kingdom. There's a parasite that can put
Speaker 3: pill bugs in deliberate danger that basically will like pill
Speaker 3: bugs in the polies. That's what we called them growing up.
Speaker 3: Some people call them potato bugs.
Speaker 2: I've heard.
Speaker 3: I don't care for that one. Big, but as I
Speaker 3: knew them can apparently be taken over by a parasite.
Speaker 3: They eat bird poop, and sometimes this parasite will get
Speaker 3: into bird poop as a way of, like I guess,
Speaker 3: feeding itself. And then the bug eats the bird poop,
Speaker 3: gets the parasite inside of it, and then that parasite
Speaker 3: grows inside and multiplies inside of the roly poly, basically
Speaker 3: makes it do a bunch of ship it doesn't want
Speaker 3: to do. And then when it dies, the bird eats.
Speaker 2: It and it goes back into the bird.
Speaker 3: But it'll like make it go where a bird is
Speaker 3: like guide it towards its death.
Speaker 2: Oh so it's ultimately okay, okay, it wants to go
Speaker 2: back to the bird from once it can.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it I guess eats in the bird and then
Speaker 3: they can like sustain themselves in the bug until they
Speaker 3: get back inside bird bulls.
Speaker 2: Yeah, nature is not well. I don't. I don't feel
Speaker 2: no kind of way when people are like I care
Speaker 2: about all natural, It's like, oh, natural is savagery. It's
Speaker 2: trying to kill you. You need to get some of
Speaker 2: this artificial. We all live longer. Eat a McDonald's hamburg. Yeah,
Speaker 2: smoke a cigarette cigarette.
Speaker 3: There are barnacles that apparently can turn a crab into
Speaker 3: like a crib for their babies. That like the barnacles,
Speaker 3: will grow inside of the crab and let their babies
Speaker 3: grow until they burn stout, and then they get to
Speaker 3: do it again when they find another crab to to
Speaker 3: implant themselves in. There are what we call it. There's
Speaker 3: a parasite that pushes into wolves apparently to make riskier decisions.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm scared of is the wolf one.
Speaker 3: So this one's weird.
Speaker 4: Is no.
Speaker 2: The demeanor Alpha, that's just a guy with no friends,
Speaker 2: that personality traits big the reason that maybe he just
Speaker 2: kind of smells funny. Wolf pack of one, I'm a one.
Speaker 3: So apparently there are wolves the wolf strings and yellow
Speaker 3: Stone Park. That basically how am I reading this single
Speaker 3: celled organism that basically reproduces in cats, right, and they
Speaker 3: have the potential to just reproducing cats. They're not necessarily
Speaker 3: taking over the cats, but they do cause a disease
Speaker 3: inside of the cats. But they believe that wolves were
Speaker 3: then infected when they were like interacting with a cougar
Speaker 3: somewhere out in the world. Yeah, absolutely, that's what I'm
Speaker 3: talking about, and once they infected the wolves, they are
Speaker 3: more likely to exhibit risky behavior.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's scary.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they basically turned themselves into like fucking jackass wolves
Speaker 3: hitting each other, jumping off his ship. That is terrifying, man, Yeah,
Speaker 3: that is horrible. And then the one that I think
Speaker 3: is most important to talk about and really connects to
Speaker 3: the larger theory at hand, is these ants. You talked
Speaker 3: about the ants, and specifically it comes from this. Uh,
Speaker 3: I ain't gonna even pretend to pretend it's could dieps Mama,
Speaker 3: that's not cool.
Speaker 2: Man, there's gonna be a dark He's like dark. You
Speaker 2: guys look darky niggas love.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: When I was growing up, they just looking at the.
Speaker 2: War orange. Yeah, the color black.
Speaker 3: So, this fungus infects ants and uses chemical signals to
Speaker 3: basically direct the ant away from their nest to make
Speaker 3: them like not a soldier ant anymore, but just like
Speaker 3: a ant that serves the fungus, and they'll like basically
Speaker 3: keep moving around doing fungus ship, dropping more and more
Speaker 3: seeds off whatever, until eventually it like grows so large
Speaker 3: inside of the ant that it bursts through them and
Speaker 3: becomes uh, you know, just a big ass mushroom out
Speaker 3: here doing like we can at Bernie's with all these
Speaker 3: different creatures.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and just doing all these different tasks and just
Speaker 1: using the host body until it's.
Speaker 2: Like I have no Now.
Speaker 3: This is where it gets nasty for us, okay, is
Speaker 3: because this fungus is also something that that scientists are
Speaker 3: studying because it has like potential to increase metabolisms and
Speaker 3: has like uses they think as a way of like
Speaker 3: a weight loss thing or like a health beneficial right.
Speaker 1: Right, and they're already trust on it. That was the
Speaker 1: name cordyceps, I think it was called also, and that's
Speaker 1: when they use those so.
Speaker 3: They are studying that stuff. And my fear, as it
Speaker 3: is always my fear, is not as much what you're
Speaker 3: theorizing of, like all the marking up really struck.
Speaker 2: They got me bad, I'm huming.
Speaker 3: But my fear is not that the mushrooms have already
Speaker 3: taken us over through ingestion, but that we are going
Speaker 3: to fuck around, tinker with these chemicals enough and create
Speaker 3: in a lab a way for these mushrooms to become
Speaker 3: these sort of like violent takeover machines that they can't
Speaker 3: currently be They can't. We can't ingest anything according to
Speaker 3: the documents, we can't currently ingest anything that is parasitic
Speaker 3: enough to like fully take us over because right now
Speaker 3: you would just die like so like.
Speaker 2: Like fungus or otherwise, there's nothing. There's no parasite we
Speaker 2: can have.
Speaker 3: We don't have any evidence of like zombie shit, what
Speaker 3: is that prote I bet, I bet there are things
Speaker 3: that can allow someone to control you, But I don't
Speaker 3: think that there's anything that like where the fungus itself
Speaker 3: is like moving our limbs type shit.
Speaker 2: Okay, right, but because they're not that like sentient or
Speaker 2: whatever exactly.
Speaker 1: But see, that's also another conspiracy where it's like we
Speaker 1: the way that we classify intelligence is so simplified by
Speaker 1: the fact that like I have.
Speaker 2: A brain right before I know everything.
Speaker 1: But I'm like, we can already tell even just with
Speaker 1: the evidance you've just shown, there's clearly intelligent and beings
Speaker 1: that do not have a brain.
Speaker 2: And intelligence I feel like sometimes is like really lateral
Speaker 2: and we don't look at like a four like the
Speaker 2: most intelligent things are the things that last live the longest. Yeah, cockroach,
Speaker 2: I thought it was those those greenland sharks.
Speaker 3: I mean greenland sharks live a really long time for sure,
Speaker 3: but in the span of of like not humanity of
Speaker 3: the earth. It's like fungus, it.
Speaker 2: Is those things are smarter than us, Like yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: we get yeah, we got diet soda, but like how
Speaker 2: long we last? Yeah, black guys fifty five? It's low.
Speaker 3: It's low man, right now, right now, let's get health screenings.
Speaker 2: Watch a little dark winged duck. Don't point me now.
Speaker 3: Nah, you've been nasty. I do think. I think what
Speaker 3: what often scares me as it relates to conspiracy theory
Speaker 3: is less of what the Earth is planning for us
Speaker 3: and more what we are planning for us via the earth.
Speaker 3: Like it is humans fucking with things that often turned
Speaker 3: things into something nasty. And I don't imagine that like
Speaker 3: mushrooms fung guy are necessarily like raging against us, the
Speaker 3: wag last of us would would present or even in
Speaker 3: your theory of them already taking over.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I was just being present within the body already.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I do think that there might be not craving that
Speaker 3: you might have. You're like, why am I crazing pizza?
Speaker 2: Hood?
Speaker 3: You know what I mean, like those small things too.
Speaker 1: So what I'm saying could be a funngus it's already
Speaker 1: within you that you have to feed the host, you
Speaker 1: have to feed the like all these different things where
Speaker 1: I'm like, it would make sense that they're already present.
Speaker 3: And certain actions not my day to day, but certain
Speaker 3: actions are sometimes something crazy, yes, And there are examples
Speaker 3: of that, Like tapeworms are that exactly, Like you get
Speaker 3: a tape worm in your stomach and it consumes so
Speaker 3: much of the food that you eat, and you find
Speaker 3: yourself having these massive cravings that you know you're being
Speaker 3: malnourished and fucking taken over by this giant thing.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 3: I was hotep for three months, okay this about It
Speaker 3: was hotel for three months.
Speaker 2: Three months. It was during COVID.
Speaker 3: I think everything that don't even count.
Speaker 2: Come on, man, we all got a hotel, We all
Speaker 2: made some we all made some sour dough.
Speaker 3: About that. One of the things I remember.
Speaker 2: There was riots, like of course you were going to
Speaker 2: get astivated.
Speaker 3: When the second they told us black people couldn't get it.
Speaker 3: I have a lot of e statements I need to do, man,
Speaker 3: I was talking crazy. I called my father with bad Yeah,
Speaker 3: you'd be safe out there, man.
Speaker 2: We'd hate for.
Speaker 3: Something to happen to you myself if not worried.
Speaker 1: But one of the things I remember reading within my
Speaker 1: hotel literature was the idea of pamphlets exactly six pamphlets.
Speaker 2: That I was giving a book that I was getting
Speaker 2: if it is if it is a book, it's poorly constructed.
Speaker 2: You got one of those book and you're like, why
Speaker 2: is this not made like a book?
Speaker 3: Why reading right to left?
Speaker 2: Lying, yeah, yeah, yeah, Why is the back of this
Speaker 2: ebony covery?
Speaker 3: It's a jet magazine.
Speaker 2: I don't have this.
Speaker 1: But the thing is is that it was just space
Speaker 1: out eating and drinking, meaning that if you were to
Speaker 1: eat something right before you drink water or any liquids,
Speaker 1: you want to wait about fifteen minutes until then you
Speaker 1: actually start to just food because of the potential of
Speaker 1: fungus growing in the body.
Speaker 3: Whoa and the water would feed said, fungus are the
Speaker 3: water plus the food mixed up together with them creative
Speaker 3: fungus to grow in the.
Speaker 2: Fungus. Yes, And that's the thing is so many hoteps
Speaker 2: are buff that you believe them about physical feed.
Speaker 3: I'm like, what are you doing like potatoes. It might
Speaker 3: be the strongest.
Speaker 2: Radicalized group, which maybe I don't want to say in
Speaker 2: case the governments Washington.
Speaker 3: I think that's fair. I think I think pound for pound, uh,
Speaker 3: they are big and buff. I worry that that that
Speaker 3: farmland strength is still it doesn't appear as buff, but
Speaker 3: it is a threat, physical threat. Yeah, oh you mean, yeah,
Speaker 3: that's interesting. I think a motherfucker that lifts bales of
Speaker 3: hay all days. Yeah, it's a type of strong that
Speaker 3: can manage against the big old jacked hotep.
Speaker 2: Dude, you've really thought about this?
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I do want us to win the war
Speaker 3: if if at all possible, and so I really got
Speaker 3: to like look at the numbers and start calculating.
Speaker 2: I do think there's a lot less rural working strong
Speaker 2: guys than there ever was before. Oh you think so,
Speaker 2: I've been in a rural town. They're not all farming.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you that.
Speaker 3: You think more than like like sitting around spinning a
Speaker 3: glass dick. Yeah, yeah, I think that's real. I think
Speaker 3: farming is a dying industry exactly, even in rural areas.
Speaker 2: It's like most of those people are farmers.
Speaker 3: And the even when you have a farm. You are
Speaker 3: you are paying below below minimum wage to a bunch
Speaker 3: of people who don't look like you to do the
Speaker 3: actual work. That that otherwise farmers weren't doing right.
Speaker 1: That's a fair point. I have something I want to say,
Speaker 1: and this made me think about this. Also, I've never
Speaker 1: said this out loud. Well, I said my girlfriend, Okay,
Speaker 1: respond have you guys.
Speaker 2: Like skin on a darkling duck? She's alo, Okay, okay,
Speaker 2: closer to our side, she.
Speaker 3: Walked, But did you guys see the substance?
Speaker 1: This?
Speaker 2: The list made me think about this. The substance told
Speaker 2: me she thought I wouldn't like it. She said, well,
Speaker 2: it would make me angry. I would argue, it might
Speaker 2: be the great Have you seen it?
Speaker 3: I haven't seen it. I was put off by the
Speaker 3: amount of gore I was warned about, you know, like Gore.
Speaker 3: I'm not big on Gore, so it is very gory.
Speaker 3: But yes, and no, not Gore.
Speaker 1: I like.
Speaker 3: I like thrilling movies, though, ok that one did have,
Speaker 3: especially at the end.
Speaker 2: That was a lot of cool.
Speaker 3: I heard it was crazy.
Speaker 1: But the movie itself is about the idea of like
Speaker 1: kind of like being within, like you take over like
Speaker 1: a young body, and then you are now a young person,
Speaker 1: and then you pop out. Now you're this old person
Speaker 1: the same plot as the Nutty Professor. Watching that movie
Speaker 1: and I was like, I started laughing halfway through the film.
Speaker 3: And my girlfriend was like, what are you?
Speaker 2: I was like, this is just the Nutty Professor.
Speaker 3: Anyone that has seen this movie.
Speaker 1: I want to see if anyone else had thought that
Speaker 1: they took the Nutty Professor.
Speaker 2: Comment comment, if you think the substance is the same
Speaker 2: as the Nutty Professor, it is. I don't the acting
Speaker 2: feet Eddie Murphy pulled off incredible film.
Speaker 3: And comment on who plays the part of Reggie in
Speaker 3: the substance?
Speaker 2: Who is the substance?
Speaker 3: I'm telling you who like hold up? Hold up?
Speaker 9: Is that mean more?
Speaker 2: Gary?
Speaker 9: You make so plain?
Speaker 1: It's just it's just it's insane. I literally left the movie,
Speaker 1: went on Twitter. I found one tweet about it. That's
Speaker 1: one random person that that medium were on the.
Speaker 3: Same frequency for whatever reason. He was like, this is
Speaker 3: and yeah, I believe it.
Speaker 2: I wish I mean, movies are the Nutty Professor? I
Speaker 2: was the substance? Yes?
Speaker 3: Jamie Fox said this in that new Eddie Murphy documentary
Speaker 3: and it was something I've maintained for a long time.
Speaker 3: I think that it is a shame.
Speaker 2: Basketball should be played news.
Speaker 3: Great, hands off if you want to hoop with me.
Speaker 3: I do think that that Eddie Murphy should have won
Speaker 3: an Oscar for the Nutty Professor.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, the Nutty Professor. This is the only time
Speaker 2: I will truly cop to my age he should. I
Speaker 2: was not. I was in Atlanta that summer and we
Speaker 2: saw The Nutty Professor in theaters that summer in Atlanta.
Speaker 2: There was an Olympic Games going on. This was bigger.
Speaker 2: I've never seen anybody do that in a movie. People
Speaker 2: were like, it's never been replicated. It felt like people
Speaker 2: were going to die. Yeah, like the table scene with Hercules, Hercules,
Speaker 2: it felt like people were not gonna make it out
Speaker 2: of this.
Speaker 3: And you have on understand that this was before you
Speaker 3: could recirculate that experience. You had to go to a
Speaker 3: movie to be able to have that feeling again.
Speaker 2: We had to wait in line. We waited in line,
Speaker 2: like the line was around the corner.
Speaker 3: You niggas was seeing that movie multiple times over and
Speaker 3: over because it was Yeah, it just was so big
Speaker 3: that John Q.
Speaker 2: John had a similar no man.
Speaker 3: American class. But we're talking about I'm not saying that
Speaker 3: it's all the same thing. Denzel Washington, Eddie Murphy, are
Speaker 3: you kidding me? No, Aaron, You're sick.
Speaker 2: You're going crazy. This has been such a good interview,
Speaker 2: and you.
Speaker 3: Eddie Murphy did the impossible. Incredible filmy an incredible. I
Speaker 3: like it a lot. It doesn't do what Nutty Professor did.
Speaker 3: Nutty Professor's Nutty Professor is a feet just in just
Speaker 3: in his willingness to put on the makeup every day
Speaker 3: is big enough feet that you go award this man. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he did the he did the impossible. Nobody will ever
Speaker 3: do it again.
Speaker 2: No, it's an amazing the actual man. I think about
Speaker 2: the mechanics of having to shoot that scene at the table,
Speaker 2: but they had to shoot it with every character and
Speaker 2: then sit ins and then like I guess they would
Speaker 2: play it back like the timing aren't everything. It's just crazy.
Speaker 2: It's amazing. I will say I'm laming this because my favorite.
Speaker 3: I love Norby.
Speaker 2: Oh man, I love Norbit so much.
Speaker 3: And off I will say.
Speaker 2: I love it so much.
Speaker 1: Body professor to do dog get me wrong, my uncle
Speaker 1: professor to my uncle who did not like me, took
Speaker 1: me to the movies to go see the Nutty Professor
Speaker 1: trying to fix you.
Speaker 2: Nutty Professor too is not the I but I'm not
Speaker 2: being like.
Speaker 1: I wasn't alive when the first I think so that's
Speaker 1: also why so the second one had more of an
Speaker 1: impact to be I think.
Speaker 3: But even then, we're gonna take another break. We We're
Speaker 3: just gonna We're gonna take a break.
Speaker 2: Man, We'll be back.
Speaker 14: And I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm short, I'm bold, I
Speaker 14: can't get any holes.
Speaker 2: I've been fighting my entire life and I won't stop fighting.
Speaker 3: Fight the good fight.
Speaker 2: Brother. Man. This has been.
Speaker 3: They have been going through it, but I bet things
Speaker 3: are going to turn around soon. They invented a solution.
Speaker 3: What what a two peg?
Speaker 2: For a while?
Speaker 3: There there's a there apparently is now well. First of all,
Speaker 3: I believe it's USC or U C L A, I
Speaker 3: can't remember which one, but they are developing a product
Speaker 3: that apparently can regrow hair like a pill. I think
Speaker 3: I think it's some sort of like cream situation.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: And then additionally, I've been seeing a bunch of articles
Speaker 3: about a basically like a lab out of Taiwan that
Speaker 3: also has developed like a product or some sort of situation.
Speaker 3: I can grow your shit back in like twenty days.
Speaker 2: That kind of seems like it never seemed like that
Speaker 2: part of a thing to figure out.
Speaker 3: To me, what do you think it's been keeping them
Speaker 3: from doing it?
Speaker 2: I think we just had other shit going on, and
Speaker 2: now we're there's enough money and like enough people are
Speaker 2: getting like cosmetic surgeries that it's like, you know what
Speaker 2: I mean, Like it's like the stigmas down, and I
Speaker 2: feel like, think about how many men we know who've
Speaker 2: done it, right, Yeah, and like guys aren't even lying
Speaker 2: about it anymore.
Speaker 3: No, Yeah, they'll tell you straight up. Yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: that of got my shit f yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: which I don't. I'm I'm dark skying. I don't think
Speaker 3: I would, but I never was worried about going bald.
Speaker 3: I think if I went bald, I just might be bald.
Speaker 1: Same but both of you guys can rocket though, I'm
Speaker 1: like pick, I'm using my imagination.
Speaker 3: It would be I have short, short hair anyways. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I'd make peace with it. I would have to like
Speaker 3: get jacked a little bit. But he does stronger because
Speaker 3: when this is low.
Speaker 2: This has to get bit Yeah, you know what I mean. Age. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Also I think when when light skinned men are bald,
Speaker 3: they can't look sick faster than dark skinned men.
Speaker 2: That's yeah, I never thought.
Speaker 3: Because he looks he made sure you knew he was
Speaker 3: a little bit jack.
Speaker 2: His voice like I'm not even it's avoid it's.
Speaker 3: Really calming the goate that does a lot of work
Speaker 3: for him as well.
Speaker 1: Also, when you do spoken on poetry, it's almost kind
Speaker 1: of demanded that you're a little bit bold.
Speaker 2: M it's like expected mm hmm.
Speaker 3: Bald dreads sometimes combined.
Speaker 2: Yeah, dreads seems tough when it's like but it starts back. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that seems that.
Speaker 3: When or when it's like you got dreads, but there's
Speaker 3: big space in between.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's the harder one. I think when there's
Speaker 2: like a lot of like it's just skin. Yeah, but
Speaker 2: you got little there's like little town crazy, but there's nothing.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of thief dooms.
Speaker 2: There's no connective suburban tissue.
Speaker 1: I'll go back to my home church, back home and
Speaker 1: like it's always it's still the same people that are
Speaker 1: still going there, same people in.
Speaker 3: The choir, but all the dudes that had dreads back
Speaker 3: in the two thousands still have it. But you're seeing
Speaker 3: those bald spots up here. I think it would.
Speaker 2: They're not.
Speaker 3: They're not letting it go.
Speaker 2: Bro, that would think it would be the hardest to
Speaker 2: go bald as a dreadhead. Yeah, that would. Really.
Speaker 3: You've committed too much.
Speaker 2: You've got a whole lifestyle. You got all these drums
Speaker 2: in your apartment. Now let it go. Grow up? You
Speaker 2: are all these knit bos. What are we gonna do?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you convinced yourself those essential oils were doing something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've been to every goddamn reggae festival in your town.
Speaker 8: That's a movie right there, reggae festival. No starting Tom Green,
Speaker 8: But dud, that's let go of his dreads.
Speaker 2: Oh man, that would be sad.
Speaker 3: To come into age movie from someone in their sixties.
Speaker 3: Oh this is like a serious drama. Yeah, it's called
Speaker 3: How Jarell Got His Gloves Back.
Speaker 2: For some reason, I feel like that movie with a
Speaker 2: man going to Jamaica to get a young woman. People
Speaker 2: don't like that, nearly care for that.
Speaker 3: I don't even think about that.
Speaker 11: Yeah, he's just down at the resort, like, do your
Speaker 11: work here, right, because she wasn't even Jamaican.
Speaker 2: We're just doing what just doing that? That's soy Diggs
Speaker 2: was Jamaican in that.
Speaker 3: Ted Diggs was Jamaican.
Speaker 2: How old was he supposed to be? Because I feel
Speaker 2: like now you didn't look at him the same.
Speaker 3: He was like twenty something, I think, and she was
Speaker 3: like meant to be like fifty. Okay, because it was
Speaker 3: a book, right as Terry was a book.
Speaker 2: It was a book.
Speaker 3: My grandma had it right there in the bathroom.
Speaker 2: Okay, in the bathroom. That was that was pooping literature, apparently,
Speaker 2: I remember it's right there in the corner. Just say
Speaker 2: it was a steamy concept.
Speaker 3: Wings coming out down. That's what he means, that's.
Speaker 2: What he thinks. I'm just trying to think his Grea
Speaker 2: wanted to have a good time. I'm sorry, she was
Speaker 2: raising a family. Clearly she has the bathroom time. Think
Speaker 2: about Ted Diggs.
Speaker 3: We have a voicemail, simply must we must listen to.
Speaker 7: We can play it now, all right, So I'm gonna
Speaker 7: say this, y'all keep wondering why people do what they
Speaker 7: do in the voicemail when that's the fucking message that
Speaker 7: is so crazy, all right? Anyway, Uh. I can't say
Speaker 7: my mama told me this because we're not really on
Speaker 7: speaking terms. But I'm convinced that all these black focused
Speaker 7: dating gurus, femininity coaches, so self proclaimed image consultants are
Speaker 7: the FBI, the FBI and CIA or whatever other three
Speaker 7: letter organization that tries to control the black people think
Speaker 7: of themselves and how they treat each other. I'm pretty
Speaker 7: sure I heard somewhere and I'm I'm sure it's valid
Speaker 7: that the Mormons were like sponsoring like the tradwife content
Speaker 7: on TikTok and Instagram and all these other places. And
Speaker 7: then we know historically the FBI did try to get
Speaker 7: in a way of movements and and and add psyops
Speaker 7: to how people think and how people treat each other.
Speaker 7: And it's in the mediate, it's all these things. And
Speaker 7: I truly believe that they did not want black people
Speaker 7: having forming strong bonds relationally or on a community level
Speaker 7: outside of capitalis and white patriarchy, and so they paid
Speaker 7: idiots like Sheer seven and Kevin Samuels and fresh and
Speaker 7: so I don't know when that is from there in Canada, right,
Speaker 7: but whatever, maybe they did.
Speaker 2: All these.
Speaker 7: He did.
Speaker 3: That's a good point though, I will say that the
Speaker 3: the ways that these people have infiltrated does feel nefarious.
Speaker 1: Agreed, It's time though, Like we know within the Black
Speaker 1: Panther movement in Chicago they had FBI CIA informants infiltrating
Speaker 1: social groups on the South Side of Chicago.
Speaker 2: And Los Angeles. Right, Yes, they killed Bunchie Carter. He
Speaker 2: was like nineteen, Yeah, but yeah, that I mean, we know,
Speaker 2: but you do think that the idea of that these
Speaker 2: things have come into the community in a way that
Speaker 2: seems super destructive to the idea of what a black
Speaker 2: family is, right, which has kind of always been under attack.
Speaker 3: And I think the the idea of a Kevin Samuels
Speaker 3: in particular, or people like that both pitching I can
Speaker 3: make you more family presentable ready while simultaneously undercutting people
Speaker 3: who probably were heading in the right direction. Yeah, it
Speaker 3: feels very like intentional in a certain way. And the
Speaker 3: way that Nigga died does feel a little suspicious.
Speaker 2: It was finally being like, you know what, everybody's needed.
Speaker 3: That, Like Kevin, remember, you're starting to sound like Martin.
Speaker 2: To ask you how much they weigh you guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do start to go like, all right, well,
Speaker 3: it does feel very into intentional that that we get
Speaker 3: this upsurge of people telling us how to behave. But
Speaker 3: it also is weird to me how many people buy
Speaker 3: into these things despite no one I actually know really
Speaker 3: being bought into these.
Speaker 2: That does feel odd that I the in though I
Speaker 2: will say there were more dudes I knew, more dudes
Speaker 2: than I care to admit, who were really into Kevin Samuels.
Speaker 3: Really into them, are just like fascinated, fascinated. I guess
Speaker 3: fascinated is more I've been people. If I'm thinking about it,
Speaker 3: it was more fascinated than people looking to him as
Speaker 3: a guru. That's how I feel is I definitely have
Speaker 3: people in my life who had who followed Kevin Samuel. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but I think it was the way that I follow
Speaker 3: some sick ship that I just want to be like, well,
Speaker 3: it's entertaining to me.
Speaker 1: And I think there might have been more younger people though,
Speaker 1: because I will say, like, at least with my own
Speaker 1: experience with Kevin, I my mom's.
Speaker 3: Last person, my mom's last voice of sam Like me
Speaker 3: and my friends thought it was funny like this dude
Speaker 3: is what, like what is he talking about?
Speaker 2: This is crazy?
Speaker 1: Like again, and also where comedians, just trying to be
Speaker 1: aware of what's happening.
Speaker 3: Then I go home. I go to my mom's boyfriend's
Speaker 3: house and he's watching but he's horrible. So he's literally
Speaker 3: on the.
Speaker 1: Couch watching it, and my mom is just sitting there
Speaker 1: as in like this is like Dogma, And I'm like,
Speaker 1: this is what they watch.
Speaker 2: That's what he's watching. Now he's like sixty five, sixty four,
Speaker 2: Kevin Samuels is dead. Yeah, of course what I'm saying
Speaker 2: this was like before me died, since the Towers bro.
Speaker 9: No.
Speaker 3: But it's like he's straight faced watching it, like consuming
Speaker 3: the content, like this guy knows what's up.
Speaker 2: And I'm my mom, leave, this is not it.
Speaker 3: That's how this man thinks.
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's problematic.
Speaker 1: But I do think it was that demographic more taking
Speaker 1: it seriously and then a younger generation probably like forty
Speaker 1: and down, being like this guy's watch.
Speaker 2: I do think that I think it was for kids,
Speaker 2: if kids are old people to believe in, and then
Speaker 2: everybody else to marvel.
Speaker 3: But I do think that it's not as much the
Speaker 3: existence of a fan base. I think everybody who sort
Speaker 3: of reaches a certain scale does accumulate some types of fans.
Speaker 3: But I'm saying that the rate at which we discovered
Speaker 3: this person doesn't feel honest to the actual It feels conspiratory.
Speaker 3: He feels like they saw a nasty thing and then
Speaker 3: they were like, pump it out exactly. And it's to me,
Speaker 3: the conspiracy feels less about like Kevin having a negotiation
Speaker 3: with the FBI and being like, I will be an
Speaker 3: informant for you. I don't think they need that anymore.
Speaker 3: I think they can just find a nasty motherfucker and be.
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, there's a bunch of people want to do
Speaker 2: it all over the internet right willing to do that shit.
Speaker 2: I want to say, even on the right wing too.
Speaker 3: On top of that, oh yeah, the right wing, I
Speaker 3: would say like, problem, what's.
Speaker 2: This, what's this ship falls through where you think we're
Speaker 2: going saying because we are let down, we were let
Speaker 2: down the liberals soon enough, I think about and then we're.
Speaker 15: The strike that from the record. I want that stricken
Speaker 15: from the record. I don't like how that felt.
Speaker 1: But I mean that's the problem though, because I'm like
Speaker 1: all these like right wing like pundits, especially I went
Speaker 1: like on a deep dive like last week because I
Speaker 1: was like, I don't pay enough attention to right wing
Speaker 1: media enough, I know, but just to know what they're
Speaker 1: talking about, because it's just it's a weird time. There's
Speaker 1: a lot happening.
Speaker 2: I find it even more convoluted than is. Like you
Speaker 2: can watch CNN and be like this is biased, but
Speaker 2: it's not necessarily that stupid. Then you watch that shit,
Speaker 2: you're like they're lying and this is stupid.
Speaker 3: And people are just taking that in.
Speaker 1: All ages are taking this in, and I'm like, there's
Speaker 1: just so many media companies that are just backing these people.
Speaker 1: There's so many like packs, Like it's so convoluted that
Speaker 1: it feels like they're trying to actually pay someone is
Speaker 1: paying to divide.
Speaker 3: This, and I think it's it doesn't even have to
Speaker 3: be like that mysterious. We individually pay money to be
Speaker 3: able to get more views on things you advertise. You
Speaker 3: do things to be able to like pump out when
Speaker 3: you're going on tour, when you want this thing to
Speaker 3: be seen by more people. They're just doing it on
Speaker 3: a bigger scale and they have a bigger budget for
Speaker 3: making sure that like X and X is being sold
Speaker 3: to a community for sure, And yeah, maybe you're sober
Speaker 3: enough and healthy enough not to buy into it. But
Speaker 3: if you watch enough Kevin Samuel's videos, you start to
Speaker 3: become endeared to versions of those conversations.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do have to watch that whenever because you
Speaker 2: start hate watching it, and then it starts to make
Speaker 2: sense just just because the amount of it that you're
Speaker 2: consuming is just.
Speaker 3: What I I It is part of my routine now
Speaker 3: and now you know, nine times out of ten he
Speaker 3: said it was crazy to me, but that one out
Speaker 3: of ten he's onto something. Yeah, and now he's not
Speaker 3: an unreasonable person.
Speaker 1: And it was the same thing with the Fresh and
Speaker 1: Fit podcast also the same way, like all those different
Speaker 1: kind of like tearing down women in a place of
Speaker 1: like really going back.
Speaker 3: To like the old school mindset of looking to them
Speaker 3: to be fresh and fit.
Speaker 2: Melt felt more like for the youth.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like that's what they wanted to do.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, those guys are tough because it's like, how do
Speaker 2: you watch that? And I think those guys are losers.
Speaker 2: That's that's always that.
Speaker 1: I used to live with a twenty one year old
Speaker 1: exactly that was like yo, fresh and Fit, like I
Speaker 1: was like, but he didn't like and I'm.
Speaker 2: Not trying how to intervene. I'm not trying to directly
Speaker 2: be out beef A podcasts, whatever, But look at those
Speaker 2: guys and be like, this is not how they're laying.
Speaker 2: They're they're laying. How do you not look at me
Speaker 2: like they're lying.
Speaker 3: How many bodies you got? How many bodies you got?
Speaker 3: It's like, what are you doing?
Speaker 2: That's cool?
Speaker 3: Exactly like he ain't fresh and he ain't fit.
Speaker 2: I don't understand. I think one might one is fit,
Speaker 2: and neither one of them are fresh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, nothing about this feels like a person I
Speaker 3: could begin to admire.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, or takes seriously. Yeah, I want to
Speaker 2: hear what they say.
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, let's finish this voicemail.
Speaker 7: Right, all these world DJ academics, like, I'm convinced they
Speaker 7: influence both those creators to get both black and women,
Speaker 7: black men and black women to be more antagonistic towards
Speaker 7: each other, and then we're all single and desperate and
Speaker 7: mad at the world, and then we're gonna kiss like
Speaker 7: white Len's ass and have like all. Well, anyway, what
Speaker 7: I'm trying to say is them niggas of syops from
Speaker 7: the government that's what that's what I've deduced.
Speaker 3: All right, but you be deduced deduced it. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: this doesn't feel that far off to me.
Speaker 2: I think the sad the sad part to me feels
Speaker 2: like it's not even that they're fully syops as much
Speaker 2: as they're doing it themselves and then it could just
Speaker 2: be put in positions.
Speaker 3: That is a very sad reality.
Speaker 2: It's not like the government came and was like do this.
Speaker 2: These losers were already doing this. The government was like,
Speaker 2: let me just move this around.
Speaker 3: I'll look the other way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, sure, Because like, do you guys believe in
Speaker 2: algorithm control? Do you think there's like someone who can
Speaker 2: control the algorithm anyway?
Speaker 3: Like it depends, Man, I go back and forth on that,
Speaker 3: but I think it makes the most sense for.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because if it's not, then it's deified. Yeah right.
Speaker 2: If it's not, then we then the algorithm is a god.
Speaker 3: You can, I mean, you can look at the numbers
Speaker 3: on videos and see the difference of like something getting
Speaker 3: twenty five likes on one person's page versus twenty five
Speaker 3: likes on another person's page, and what ultimately becomes the
Speaker 3: amount of quote unquote views on that thing. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: it is just all in some ways kind of made up.
Speaker 3: It's like, even with equivalent amount of shares and likes
Speaker 3: and reactions and all the things, if you are popular,
Speaker 3: your number will be larger than somebody who is not popular.
Speaker 3: And that to me feels very intentional in that we
Speaker 3: have chosen you as this scale of numbers that sort
Speaker 3: of represent your worth, and this your scale down here
Speaker 3: because you have this many followers. I don't think that
Speaker 3: that's accidental, and I don't think that that's like the
Speaker 3: algorithm just deciding for itself. I think people are being like, well,
Speaker 3: we want more engagement. The best way to do it
Speaker 3: is with somebody who has more followers and more sort
Speaker 3: of active at least possibility of getting that engaged.
Speaker 1: And do you think just to go off like that thought,
Speaker 1: do you think it goes off of also like a
Speaker 1: narrative that specific person that's pushing out even if they
Speaker 1: haven't even been contacted by some CIA or like FBI representative. Right,
Speaker 1: do you think that they're being like, oh, this person
Speaker 1: is put is already to your point, being a loser
Speaker 1: and pushing out type of narrative, like you know what,
Speaker 1: this bit's what we want to push out to Boom.
Speaker 5: There you go.
Speaker 3: I think it can be for sure, and I think
Speaker 3: it it is easily trackable just through like the amount
Speaker 3: of revenue that people are investing in the product, right, Like,
Speaker 3: if you're willing to invest money into getting more views,
Speaker 3: then we will continue to invest in your longevity on
Speaker 3: this app because you represent more money for us, whereas
Speaker 3: like somebody who's just on the app truly experiencing it
Speaker 3: organically doesn't necessarily represent the exact same potential revenue. I
Speaker 3: think it's I think money makes this all feel traceable
Speaker 3: for sure.
Speaker 2: It makes sense.
Speaker 1: Man, it's wild, dude. I think I just don't want
Speaker 1: to look at the world like that. But there's so
Speaker 1: many like signs that point to a lot of the
Speaker 1: stuff that I'm like, it is just.
Speaker 2: That it's fucked up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it means yeah, you know what I mean, Blacks,
Speaker 3: see it's worse.
Speaker 2: It's over there. You see what happens.
Speaker 3: I will say, and this this will be our big
Speaker 3: wrap up. I will say that this feels like it
Speaker 3: connects nicely to this question of zombies and sort of
Speaker 3: zomblification of the human being whatever. I think that ultimately
Speaker 3: it's not so much that like a mushroom is taking
Speaker 3: over our brain, but more that we are becoming like
Speaker 3: numb to the ship that actually is taking over our brain.
Speaker 2: And the fungus is the algorithm that we go like that.
Speaker 3: That's a beautiful way to end, punctuate this bad boy.
Speaker 4: Out.
Speaker 3: We figured it out.
Speaker 2: Come on fungus among us, let's go. I think that
Speaker 2: was yep, Yeah, that's the one.
Speaker 3: That's what you chose, like.
Speaker 2: You felt that whole part, like that whole part. I
Speaker 2: think that was a listener. Oh, I don't think.
Speaker 3: Put Aaron, Can you tell other people where they can
Speaker 3: find you?

Speaker 1: You can find me on Instagram, you can find me
