Like every day was becoming the 71 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 3: same old, same old thing day and day out, just 72 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:33,959 Speaker 3: lay on the ground be like, damn, what the fuck 73 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 3: am I even doing with my life?

This is my 83 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: little and by the way, hold on, this is like 84 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: this is like a I feel like this is like 85 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: a like an alpha male talking point that I've come to. 86 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: But I'm gonna yeah a little bit, but it's it's 87 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: a hypothesis that I'm thinking about, and it's a it's 88 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: a funny hypothesis. It's a funny hypothesis because it runs 89 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: in absolute utter contrast to what I like, what my 90 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: whole thing is. I guess, I think, I think, And again, 91 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: nothing I say on this show is etched in stone. 92 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: If you ever call me and you're like, hey, remember 93 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: three years ago. 94 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 3: This is all becoming and all in flux. 95 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: Everything is in total, everything's in total flex. Okay, there 96 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: we go. You're on You're you're on the same level. 97 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: And to share this with you, I I I actually 98 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: I'm playing around with a hypothesis. It's a new hypothesis 99 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: I have. I think talking I think talking about your 100 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: problems might make them worse. Is that insane to think? 101 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 3: I think, I think I would agree with you? What 102 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 3: what what makes you think?

Yeah, you start building this narrative 132 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 3: about who you are and what you do, and like 133 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 3: it's you know, if I'm constantly depressed, and it's like 134 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,359 Speaker 3: you locked yourself into that. That's kind of how I 135 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 3: felt with the whole quarantine COVID COVID thing or whatever 136 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 3: was until I went to Japan and then came back 137 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 3: and I was like, like, damn, I can actually do shit, 138 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 3: but yeah, I know, yeah yeah.

Some some psychiatrist dude or some ship said like, 141 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 3: you know, the the key and like the speaking region 142 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 3: and the region of like actual action are kind of 143 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 3: highly highly connected. So when you speak a problem, it's 144 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 3: almost like you're acting like I guess an analogy I 145 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 3: would draw would be like, you know, you talk to 146 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 3: your friends about I'm going to be a doctor, I'm 147 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 3: gonna be this, or I'm gonna do some shit, but 148 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 3: then it's kind of like, well, you know, it's it's 149 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 3: it's like you almost did the actions. Now you don't 150 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 3: even want to pursue doing thing because you already said 151 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 3: and told and bloviated on and on and on about 152 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 3: that kind of shit.

And 663 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 3: I was, you know, here I am graduated with a 664 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 3: biochem degree, but now here I'm working as a server 665 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 3: somewhere like this ego thing about it.

I heard the 1521 01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:18,559 Speaker 5: yen is down too, which is I mean, that's good 1522 01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:23,160 Speaker 5: for you. I want to guess. Yeah, maybe if the 1523 01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:26,759 Speaker 5: if USD is more powerful there, because yeah. 1524 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:28,920 Speaker 1: We'll see. I don't know. I'm curious we'll see. I 1525 01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:31,519 Speaker 1: feel like the US this is this is a hilarious 1526 01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:33,960 Speaker 1: thing to talk about on the Therapy Gecko podcast. But 1527 01:16:34,479 --> 01:16:36,040 Speaker 1: I think the US. I don't know how. I don't 1528 01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:38,719 Speaker 1: know how much longer the US dollar has anymore either, 1529 01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:42,040 Speaker 1: So we'll see we might be joining the end in 1530 01:16:42,080 --> 01:16:43,560 Speaker 1: the near future. Who knows. 1531 01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:47,080 Speaker 5: Oh no, I mean that's not I mean, I guess 1532 01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:49,760 Speaker 5: that doesn't make it worse to go to Japan than 1533 01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:52,040 Speaker 5: that's I mean, that's on the bright side. 1534 01:16:52,520 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. I just let's see 1535 01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:56,880 Speaker 1: how much longer do I have left to live. I'm 1536 01:16:56,880 --> 01:16:59,960 Speaker 1: twenty seven. If I'm lucky, I got fifty three more years, 1537 01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:02,360 Speaker 1: you know, I'll be okay. 1538 01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:06,960 Speaker 5: Do you think that? Do you think you're like, do 1539 01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:11,040 Speaker 5: you ever wonder if it's possible that you might not die? 1540 01:17:11,240 --> 01:17:13,120 Speaker 5: Like if you ever like, Look, do you know Brian 1541 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:14,840 Speaker 5: Johnson is, like you know his whole stick? 1542 01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 1: Yes, I know who Brian Johnson is. And I think 1543 01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:26,880 Speaker 1: I think it's a fool's Errand really, yeah, I hard disagree. 1544 01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:27,360 Speaker 5: With you on that point. 1545 01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:30,719 Speaker 1: Why why why do you hard disagree with me on that. 1546 01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:35,479 Speaker 5: It's a fool's Errand in the short term, just because 1547 01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:38,040 Speaker 5: of science. I don't. I mean, I'm not, I'm not 1548 01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:41,360 Speaker 5: professional or anything, but like, I mean, I think anyone 1549 01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 5: can tell that it's we're nowhere near to like, you know, 1550 01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:50,920 Speaker 5: solving death or something. But I think that everyone, just 1551 01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:55,439 Speaker 5: like in the world culturally has like grown to accept 1552 01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:58,519 Speaker 5: like death as being normal because like, why wouldn't they. 1553 01:17:58,640 --> 01:18:03,160 Speaker 5: But but this point, with the way that our science is, 1554 01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:08,679 Speaker 5: no one has like it seems like no one besizing 1555 01:18:08,680 --> 01:18:12,320 Speaker 5: on people like Brian Johnson has seriously considered the possibility 1556 01:18:12,360 --> 01:18:14,840 Speaker 5: that death is just like an illness that we can 1557 01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:19,000 Speaker 5: cure eventually, and so people are not you know, actually 1558 01:18:19,040 --> 01:18:21,680 Speaker 5: told me about that as a serious possibility to. 1559 01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:26,599 Speaker 1: Do what what do you know?

I feel like in Japan that 1590 01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:45,800 Speaker 5: would be awesome, but I would just not be able 1591 01:19:45,840 --> 01:19:49,760 Speaker 5: to compete with Japanese game devs compared to him. 1592 01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:54,120 Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, here's the thing is we 1593 01:19:54,160 --> 01:19:58,519 Speaker 1: need to like this is I guess shouldn't society be 1594 01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:02,559 Speaker 1: sustainable first, and then we can make it forever. Shouldn't 1595 01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:05,600 Speaker 1: we make it? Shouldn't we make it like sustainable and 1596 01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:14,080 Speaker 1: utopian and then we can make it forever. Uh. 1597 01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:16,479 Speaker 5: I mean in terms of like I guess it depends 1598 01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:20,960 Speaker 5: on what you're what you're comparing, like, because I mean, 1599 01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:23,160 Speaker 5: if if you're talking about, like, oh, we should we 1600 01:20:23,200 --> 01:20:26,800 Speaker 5: should colonize Mars because Earth is gonna you know, Earth 1601 01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:28,439 Speaker 5: is doing we need to go to a different like like, yeah, 1602 01:20:28,439 --> 01:20:30,720 Speaker 5: obviously it's stupid because we should just take care of 1603 01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:33,719 Speaker 5: the planet we have now.
