This is what 17 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: my toast should be called, and we got to do 18 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 1: something about it. Question you said, when you clear your throat, 19 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: what is it act? What is it achieving? Is it 20 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: that you're trying to knock something loose. It's that you're 21 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: scratching a throat. It's well, why the attention of the room. 22 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: I don't certainly not, but I think I don't think 23 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: that's helping the look of like older white men when 24 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: they do that, because it does seem like that's what 25 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: they're doing. But I think most of the time it's 26 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: just something's fucking caught and that sucks. And yeah, it's 27 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: not good. It's not good on a first date. It's 28 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: not good. It's not good on and it's not good 29 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: for a single man to be running around clear in 30 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: his throat. It's the opposite of what a woman wants. 31 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: A woman wants moisture, woman wants the woman put it 32 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: on a T shirt. Put it on a T shirt. 33 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: A woman people to be flexible and ready, not dried out. 34 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: And you know, I'll help you with the stroller as 35 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: soon as I'm done doing you know I'll be right 36 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: there to help you with the baby. Why does daddy 37 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: make a scary noise? I don't know. He's too old 38 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: that should never married him. Daddy sounds like an old 39 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: radiator's daddy trying to command the room. Again. I never 40 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: fully on the movie Big Fish, the Tim Burton movie, 41 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: like the main character, the dad, the legend dead character, 42 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: repeatedly keep saying, as an old man, how was it 43 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: just dried out? When they would like find him in 44 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: a pond. I don't really remember that movie that well, 45 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: but I remember that line because I was so baffled by, like, 46 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: were they like trying to make it a thing like 47 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: a quote? Because he says that multiple times, I think, um, yeah, 48 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: maybe it was just a very realistic portrayal of aging, 49 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, like you can look at the 50 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: pictures of Miles.

I'm going I'm getting my neck 87 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: worked on pre medical procedure medical. I mean, it's it's 88 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: happens pretty quick. Like you know, it's just one minute 89 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: you're one of you never clear your throat. The next 90 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: minute you know you're sucking clearing your throat. Seriously, there's 91 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: nothing you know, I don't think unless you're like already 92 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: famous professor or something, and it's like maybe matches it's 93 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: like somehow like that could be a thing where you're, oh, 94 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: he's he's got gravitas because he clears his throat or something, 95 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: because he's like already an author.

You do it before the 334 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 1: hotter at the end of the hot I'm talking just cold, 335 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: my man, yourself, and I'm a no hot kind of guy. 336 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. It's gotta be. You have to 337 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,479 Speaker 1: be committed to taking a short shower right You're not. 338 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,479 Speaker 1: It's not one of those showers where you're like thinking 339 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: and blah blah blah. It's like a quick in and 340 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 1: out shower, and it does suck during the shower, it's 341 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 1: never fun. But after you get out, it's like you 342 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: had a couple of the cleanest coffee you've ever had, 343 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like you're just like locked in, 344 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: ready to rock, feeling good about the day. So my 345 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: wife is very into Huberman do you know Huberman? Yeah, yeah, 346 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: we're trying to get him on our podcast. Yeah yeah, yeah. 347 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 1: So he's like the Stanford scientists and he has all 348 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 1: these like hacks and one of them is like the 349 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,719 Speaker 1: cold shower, And she got me to buy in and 350 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 1: I did the cold shower, and I felt like ship 351 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: Like the rest of the day. I was like, oh 352 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 1: my god, I'm like exhausted and yeah, like I have 353 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,199 Speaker 1: a cold for the rest of the day. So I 354 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: think it like definitely works for I think some people, 355 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: for sure like that the way you described as the 356 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: way I always hear people describing it that it like 357 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: ramps up your kind of energy and your adrenaline. And 358 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: for me, it was just my body was like, you know, 359 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: don't do that. Ever it might have it might have 360 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: given you a silent heart attack. Yeah yeah, I think 361 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: that's exactly. I feel like the whole day I could 362 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: barely think connect what's your other underread I think that 363 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: I think being underrated can be underrated, like when other 364 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: people think you are when other people underrate you or 365 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: underrate something that's underrated because I think, like, you know, 366 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: I don't know, it doesn't really matter if you're a 367 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 1: performer River. But like let's say, let's say I assume 368 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 1: you're a bad doctor. We're talking about doctors, right, and 369 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: then you come in and you're just like a normal doctor. 370 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: Now I think you're a great doctor, because my expectation 371 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: was that you were whack? Do you know what I mean? 372 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 1: So sometimes being underrated gives you an edge low bars, Yeah, 373 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: exactly about low Bars man. Yeah, but yeah, like it 374 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: also you heard how this podcast, right, you heard my 375 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: ucturs thinking bars pretty high. But yeah, it definitely is 376 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: like a psychological advantage. I think when I think the 377 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 1: most powerful it is is when you actually have a 378 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: very strong sense of self and you're interacting with somebody 379 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 1: who underrates you, because that's when you'll they'll be like, 380 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: what the funk was that? Yeah? Exactly. I remember I 381 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: read it on review with Margot Robbie or something where 382 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 1: she was talking about how when she first got to 383 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 1: LA before she was famous, she would go on auditions 384 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 1: and she felt like casting or who have producers whatever 385 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: that she was auditioning for, like when she walked in 386 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,199 Speaker 1: the room that they would immediately judge her as like 387 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: just like a hot, dizzy person. And then when she 388 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 1: actually like did the audition and like was good that. 389 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: They were like, oh my god, she's the best actor ever. 390 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: She's like, I don't know if I deserve that response, 391 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: but because people thought I was gonna be dumb, the 392 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: whip lash either whiplash of it, you know what I mean? 393 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 1: Hell yeah, totally lash.

And 413 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,400 Speaker 1: it turns out Friday is when we heard, uh, this 414 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,440 Speaker 1: guy Trace Gallagher come like he was on Tucker Carlson's 415 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: show and just talking about like I don't know if 416 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: you've heard Tucker, they got be plugs CV like this. 417 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: Just listen to this whole exchange because it's so just listen. 418 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 1: How about this one? The producer for a producer for 419 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson tonight happened to notice the CVS is now 420 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: selling sex toys and they appear to be a relative bargain. 421 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: For example, relative push for eleven dollars and ninety seven cents, 422 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: though the accompanying lotion that goes with it will set 423 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: you back an additional and if you've got the cash 424 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: right there in the middle of the buzzy butt will 425 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: run you thirty two fifty information. I just wanted you 426 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: to know about New York. But it's immoral to sell 427 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: Marlborough's trace. Just so you know, thank you for your reporting. 428 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 1: You blow my mind every night. Okay, so you should 429 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: you should be able to sell Marlborough's Yes, what the wait? 430 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: What just happened? Was that an ad that was? That 431 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: was another yeah? That was a yeah, we can cut 432 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 1: that out. I guess he pivots off of that, which 433 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: is I guess saying like, well, if you can sell 434 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: sex toys for consenting adults to use, why not why 435 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 1: can't you advertise death sticks? Like the logic is really interesting, 436 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 1: and again I like how they start off with like, 437 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: and it's quite a relative bargain. A couple of things 438 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 1: I like, either, like when your producers happened to notice 439 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 1: but I don't need to delve into the purpose personalize 440 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: of anyone. And the cush tush for tush cush is 441 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: actually a lubricant, so I don't know why I meant 442 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: the accompanying lotion because the the tush cush already is 443 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: a lubricant. And I think it was eleven in that picture. 444 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 1: But he said they had to introduce mistakes, so it 445 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: seemed like they were not familiar with this and that 446 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: they were surprised. Well, but also relative bargain, what is that? 447 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: Where's your basis for comparison? But was thirty something right? Yeah? 448 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 1: I don't and that that was just for them to 449 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,680 Speaker 1: be like, oh, like, you know, but play equals maybe 450 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: lgbt Q or straight. I don't know. Look, I don't know. 451 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, but CVS has them and and yet 452 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: they won't let your kids smoke in school? Come on, 453 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 1: just which is a weird segments? So yes, shocked, I'm sure. 454 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 1: But then the next night, Marjorie Taylor Green decided to 455 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: incorporate that material during her one hour stand up special 456 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 1: I guess.

Yeah, 547 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: it would be bad for your back to try and 548 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: like whip your body, like use the momentum like a 549 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: fucking flagellum on an umib or something. Am using the 550 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 1: right terms, very feeling, very sad. I'm probably just making 551 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: fun of it because that's what I looked like when 552 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,479 Speaker 1: I was trying to do pull ups and pe class 553 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: as a kid. I could I could never do pull ups. 554 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: So look they made you do pull ups. Oh man, 555 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: they didn't do that ship in my school. I think 556 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:40,239 Speaker 1: everybody knew, well, we had those like presidential fitness things, right, 557 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: but it was never yo, maybe my you know what, 558 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: my school didn't have a thing to pull up on. 559 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 1: So I think we just did fucking uh like mile 560 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: times and push ups rope right. Ohh no, See my 561 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: elementary school, I didn't have a gym until high school. 562 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: We didn't have a gym at my like elementary school. 563 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: Everything was outside, makes sense, Yeah, so we were just 564 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: out here, couldn't even pull up on anything. That's what 565 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 1: got these old well and the flexibility one too, where 566 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: you put on the embarrassing. I used to get loose 567 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: before that one because that was the one I kind 568 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: of excelled at, Like I wasn't hitting as many push 569 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: ups as like other kids. But it was a mild guy, 570 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 1: but I was bad at everything else. What was your time? 571 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: I don't remember, but all right, it was. I think 572 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: it was like five minutes. As a ten year old, 573 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: I like that one. All right. There's new Congress coming in. 574 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 1: New Congress just dropped, and a lot of speculation about 575 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: what the agendas they're going to be, and we're starting 576 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 1: to see them take shape. And the Republicans are kind 577 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: of as suspected, you know, they're they're in line with 578 00:32:54,840 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: Elon Musk's cool joke about my pronouns are investigate, foul, prosecute. Actually, yeah, 579 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: if you want to be respectful. But yeah, like it's 580 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: all a bunch of fishing expeditions. Obviously, Hunter Biden's laptop 581 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: is going to be a huge one. And like other 582 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 1: Trump grievances, right like marching up people who cross Trump, 583 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: it's probably how they're gonna waste all their energy. But um, 584 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: they've also said that they are going to act like 585 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 1: politicians who are worried about governmental dysfunction, and they will 586 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: be looking into COVID aid abuse. Really the thing they 587 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: couldn't give a fuck less about, the very thing many 588 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: of them benefited from personally, while working Americans were left 589 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: to language that yes, he will get to the bottom 590 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 1: of that. For fucking sure, no they won't. But again, 591 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: this is gonna be an attempt to try and act 592 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 1: like all of this abuse didn't happen under their watch 593 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: with Trump in office. Um, because again we didn't hear 594 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: a single fucking keep unless it was like about helping 595 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 1: those in actual need, you know what I mean. That's 596 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: when they had something to say. It wasn't like when 597 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: people are just taking off of all his money and 598 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,839 Speaker 1: like people just like being like, yeah, man, I bought 599 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: a landlownership. It was pretty dope. But apparently they will 600 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 1: get to the bottom of this. I think again, it 601 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 1: will be a very bizarro optic circus because they're like, Okay, 602 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: we gotta get away from the election denial, but we 603 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 1: also got to chum the waters for the base to 604 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 1: be angry enough to vote while also trying to appeal 605 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 1: to new voters who aren't has put off by racism, homophobias, 606 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 1: enophobia and just general societal regression. How about the Democrats, 607 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: where are we gonna get from them? They got control 608 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,320 Speaker 1: of the Senate. Still, yeah, Jack, thank you for bringing 609 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 1: that up, because Chuck shoot me and the crew are 610 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: gonna roll up their fucking sleeves and start cracking some skulls. 611 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: You know what they've been saying. They said, Okay, first 612 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 1: of all, they since they have their like outright majority 613 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: in the Senate, they have subpoena power. They don't need 614 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: Republicans to buy in at all. Um, So what will 615 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 1: they do? They have said they're gonna look into corporate 616 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 1: abuses of power. They said they're going full populist folks. 617 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 1: You know what they want to see? They said, they 618 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: want to see like what fossil fuel companies have been 619 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: up to, big tech, if they're overstepping compromising our privacy, 620 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 1: what's going on with inflation. But before you go and 621 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: think we're about to get, you know, enter some new 622 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: age of progressivism, I would just consider the limitations that 623 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,879 Speaker 1: the Democrats are mindful of. This is from NBC News 624 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 1: just when they first were speaking to Democrats about their agenda. 625 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: Quote still Democratic Senate sources said there will be limitations 626 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: in the use of subpoenas, which in many cases require 627 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,839 Speaker 1: majority support on committees. According to nonpartisan Congressional Research Service, 628 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: one reason is that the Senate map is extremely challenging 629 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,959 Speaker 1: for Democrats. With three members defending seats, and red states 630 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 1: in another five and competitive purple states, those senators may 631 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: be particularly sensitive about supporting subpoenas that come in partisan flavors. Now, 632 00:35:56,160 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 1: if you're about looking at corporate overreach, imagine that's gonna 633 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 1: smack of partisan unless we're talking about you know, your benefactors. 634 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,959 Speaker 1: It seems like that would be broadly popular. These corporations 635 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: fucked you over. We got to be very careful. Hold on, no, hold, 636 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 1: Amy's based in Minnesota, So you can't bring three am 637 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 1: up here. Don't bring three do not subpoena three M 638 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,320 Speaker 1: or Amy Clobachar is gonna be a fucking shit. Okay, 639 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: find someone else, get Sam Bankman fraud or that guy 640 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: barely has any fucking barely any good will points for that, 641 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like they're gonna bring up, 642 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna do ship, they're gonna bring like people forward. 643 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 1: I'm just a little weary, um because you know, when 644 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:42,800 Speaker 1: you say there's like, well, we really want to do 645 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 1: this stuff, but Senate Math, you know, like so they're 646 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: basically saying maybe there will be well in no way 647 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: actually deliver on the initial premise that we threw out there. 648 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 1: I can see them doing some stuff in big tech 649 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 1: fossil fuel companies are safe as safe unless it's like 650 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: Saudi Aramco or something. You know what, I might start 651 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 1: a war, but not nothing's happening to uh, big fossil 652 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 1: field companies. It's creepy that that makes so much sense 653 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: to me, like they would go after building more weapons 654 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: or using the weapons that are already built to make 655 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: some profit that way, rather than actually going after the companies. 656 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: But guys, I had this conversation with my father the 657 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:25,280 Speaker 1: other day. He's in his seventies and his retirement funds. 658 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: With the all the stock market stuff that's been happening, 659 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: they have just been rocky. Let's say, um, and I wonder, 660 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 1: like what happens if let's say, let's say Democrats actually 661 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 1: did go after energy companies and the big tech companies 662 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 1: and did do some good right, like made these companies 663 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:48,320 Speaker 1: pay their fair share or you know, pay back. Um. Humans, 664 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,879 Speaker 1: when there's been some kind of environmental disaster or something 665 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 1: like that, and then the stock market plummets for for 666 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: at least in those sectors. Like what happens to all 667 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: the older folks? Does that matter? What do you think? 668 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 1: I think? Like anything? Right, it's a very very well 669 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: set up game where they have tied people's livelihoods to 670 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 1: the fucking stock market, you know what I mean, it's 671 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 1: such a risky, fucking look at all these people are 672 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,040 Speaker 1: getting sucked over because certain like municipalities are school districts 673 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: were like using f t X and like crypto for 674 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 1: their fucking like pension funds. That's that's where it's fucked up, 675 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:30,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. The fact that now, because 676 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: to your point, that is something to consider because if 677 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,280 Speaker 1: someone says, you know, we need a kneecap these fucking 678 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 1: fossil fuel companies, then someone can say, well, you know, 679 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: like X, you know, like let's say just whatever, this 680 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 1: is a hypothetical. Like the firefighters in New York, like 681 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 1: a lot of their pensions are tied to that performance 682 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: of this industry. That's really bad. And I am here 683 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 1: to lobby on behalf of them to tell you this 684 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: will be the knock on effect of your legislation, and 685 00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: that's where it gets murky and you put people up 686 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 1: against all and I think there's more education needed, But 687 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: I totally, I totally get that, which is weird. It 688 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:08,439 Speaker 1: becomes an oral borrows like all of it right, it's 689 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: all interconnected, and that's what makes the system of capitalism like. 690 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 1: That's why the statement it's easier to imagine the end 691 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: of the world than the end of capitalism like makes 692 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,879 Speaker 1: so much sense. It's just massive and ongoing and self 693 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:25,439 Speaker 1: perpetuating and smarter than any like single human. So it's 694 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,840 Speaker 1: it's going to find a way to survive and you know, 695 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,839 Speaker 1: punish anything that threatens its overall health. But I mean, 696 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 1: the last time we had a major market collapse, the 697 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: people weren't bailed out, like the people who lost their savings, 698 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 1: but the people at the top of the companies were 699 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 1: bailed out. So I'm sure there's some version of this 700 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: where you provide relief and support to people who get 701 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,840 Speaker 1: sucked over by the operating of a of a company 702 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 1: that like they didn't have access to what like a 703 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,360 Speaker 1: company that is lying and committing from who you're just 704 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: gonna give money away, Jack, Yeah, we've been giving money 705 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: away to corporations and CEOs and thanks for like that's 706 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 1: the only time America feels okay about giving money. What. So, 707 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,440 Speaker 1: it's like, we we need some protections in place for 708 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: people who are going to get sucked over by all 709 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: the horribly corrupt things that have been happening now for decades. 710 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: But it needs to protect people, uh, and people who 711 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: are trying to retire and be able to like live 712 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 1: out their lives and not protect Morgan Stanley's ability to 713 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 1: continue giving up million dollar bonuses to themselves would be 714 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,799 Speaker 1: my argument. But yeah, I think but I think it's 715 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,400 Speaker 1: just important, right. It's like more people have to be 716 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 1: in touch with understanding like just how unpredictable and just 717 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: how like sort of well set up everything is, so 718 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: like you depend on the stock market while also acknowledging 719 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,720 Speaker 1: that like the philosophy of like infinite growth is also 720 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 1: the it's like these of and solution to all of 721 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:11,320 Speaker 1: life's problems. Um, so you're in this like really fucked space, 722 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,839 Speaker 1: and I think it just takes a you know, I think, 723 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 1: like anything, the more people are able to like articulate that, 724 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 1: it'll feel less like, well what do we do about this? Like, yeah, 725 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 1: we do this because we've been giving money to the 726 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,280 Speaker 1: fucking people who don't fucking need it, while other people 727 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 1: end up rotting. And that's the that's the fucking game here. 728 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 1: It's not, well, what about Exxon's you? Where's your fucking livelihood? 729 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,920 Speaker 1: Where's your sense of stability, where's your ability to like 730 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 1: feel safe and that you can provide for your family? 731 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 1: What about fucking you man? Fuck these billion dollar companies. Seriously, 732 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: don't send your empathy that way. Understand the system and 733 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:50,439 Speaker 1: then find a way that you can actually at least 734 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 1: be able to inform yourself and others that like, these 735 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,240 Speaker 1: are the real stakes because the more we like flounder 736 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: on and like this sort of half understanding what's going 737 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:00,799 Speaker 1: on and half wanting to ignore it, the longer it's 738 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: going to continue. And it's the same ship we see 739 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 1: with the Democrats with this whole thing of like being 740 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 1: like we're tacking populist until we act like again, You'll 741 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 1: have to forgive my cynicism here because I've seen this 742 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: so many times. But the proof will be in what 743 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:20,360 Speaker 1: comes after these grillings. Will there be regulation other than that, 744 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:22,320 Speaker 1: it's just going to be a bunch of fucking YouTube 745 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 1: clips that they're gonna fucking fundraise off of. And that's 746 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 1: that's the other part is people need to be able 747 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,600 Speaker 1: to demand that from the politicians. But again, knowing how 748 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 1: everything is set up, you start to see how fucking 749 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,800 Speaker 1: hard it is to break that. And with all this 750 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 1: things like, yeah, we've got to consider the Senate, I'm like, 751 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 1: look at every single thing they did that with Obamacare, 752 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:43,360 Speaker 1: build back better child tax credits, every piece of climate legislation, 753 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,360 Speaker 1: looking every piece of banking reform, fucking every piece of 754 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 1: police reform. It's all, well, you know, the Senate matter, 755 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: the map. They just have to make you feel like 756 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:53,799 Speaker 1: they're the team that's gonna do those things or could 757 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 1: do those things, or you would want to do those 758 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: things exactly. And I think many people are at a 759 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 1: point now where they just want to feel like fucking 760 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: make good on all this ship because we're very quickly, 761 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: like as people's situations become more dire, you're really just 762 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 1: gonna like I think people are gonna become fully apathetic, 763 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 1: uh and just really see like what's the like what 764 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,279 Speaker 1: they just court my vote every two to four years 765 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 1: for fucking what like incremental change? Yeah, we need a 766 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,319 Speaker 1: chaotic good party as a third party in the US, 767 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like they're they're always aiming 768 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,720 Speaker 1: for good whatever that is, but they're just super chaotic 769 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, we have the chaotic evil. Yeah yeah. 770 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 1: I just got a notification last night from Uber being like, hey, 771 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 1: donate to help us continue to provide service to the 772 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,320 Speaker 1: Ukrainian fighters. And it's just like this built in logic 773 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: of like, you're a like fifty billion dollar company and 774 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 1: you are asking me for donations for you to do 775 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 1: something that is benefit well not, here's the thing. Actually 776 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:59,400 Speaker 1: we already donated fifty million, but we're just trying to 777 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 1: get that right, right, So you the individual. But that's 778 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: the logic that works in America. Like stepping outside, it's 779 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 1: it's like, well that doesn't make sense. Why are they 780 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 1: a massive corporation asking me, a private individual for donations. 781 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 1: And it's because they can in our country, right. But 782 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 1: you know that, like when you go to the store, 783 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,799 Speaker 1: they're like, would you look to feed a homeless dog? Yeah, 784 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: they're just recouping what they're already. Your money isn't going 785 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 1: to that, they already made their donation. They're just taking 786 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 1: your money to make themselves whole and it's a huge 787 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: tax benefit. Yeah yeah, yeah, baby, un So they get 788 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,839 Speaker 1: your ass um Let's take a quick break. I want 789 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 1: to talk about UFOs, and we're back, and the news 790 00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 1: out of science is undeniably good. Scientists that will leave 791 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 1: California created the first breakthrough a nuclear fusion technology that 792 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 1: seems to suggest we might be on a path to 793 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 1: be able to create clean, sustainable energy using basically the 794 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 1: same power as the sun, but here on Earth, just 795 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 1: like create a little sun. From this La Times article 796 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 1: last week, for the first time, they designed this experiment 797 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 1: so that the fusion fuel stayed hot enough, dense enough, 798 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 1: and round enough for long enough that it ignited and 799 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 1: produced more energy than the lasers head deposited. Which that's 800 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:35,400 Speaker 1: that's what you need. The net energy game was about 801 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 1: two mega jewels in about three mega jewels out. I 802 00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 1: was reading all about him, like, I don't know what 803 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 1: a fucking mega jewel is. Is that like a vapor cartridge? 804 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,040 Speaker 1: Like what the funk are we talking about? But there 805 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 1: are plenty of articles that were like, hey, dumbass, this 806 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,320 Speaker 1: is why this ship is freking important. And I'm like, 807 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:57,800 Speaker 1: oh shit, because normally right we're using fission reactors in 808 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,720 Speaker 1: nuclear power plants, which are split eating atoms and create 809 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,800 Speaker 1: radioactive waste like in the form of spent fuel rods. 810 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:09,400 Speaker 1: This is literally fusing them to create an energy like 811 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 1: net energy gain and has no like, has none of 812 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,840 Speaker 1: the pitfalls of like fission reactors, which I was like, 813 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:22,400 Speaker 1: oh okay, so no, like Chernobyl Fukushima type ship also 814 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: infinite like it's clean and once you get it going, 815 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:29,920 Speaker 1: like it's it's a party for for all to have 816 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 1: fucking energy. That was like that's when I was like, 817 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:37,799 Speaker 1: I see, I see that is that's big. Yeah. Yeah. 818 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,840 Speaker 1: It also generates three to four times as much energy 819 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: as fission, which itself is already roughly a million times 820 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 1: more powerful than any other energy source on Earth. So 821 00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:51,800 Speaker 1: but how many times more roughly a million times more powerful, 822 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:55,200 Speaker 1: a million times more? Wait? How many how wait? How 823 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,480 Speaker 1: what's fusion? Is? How many times more than fission? Three 824 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:03,040 Speaker 1: to four times as much of Jesus? And that's okay. Yeah, 825 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:08,480 Speaker 1: So it's very very intriguing, very promising. Still like the 826 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,720 Speaker 1: fact that we don't use fission, the thing that's already 827 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:16,719 Speaker 1: a million times more powerful than the other energy that 828 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 1: we have available to us. I think that has more 829 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:23,760 Speaker 1: to do with it not fitting into the world's preferred 830 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 1: paradigm of the moment, which is global corporate capitalism. Like 831 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:35,120 Speaker 1: you need the government to intervene and handle a nuclear reactor. Essentially, 832 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 1: that's not a thing that can be like easily privatized. 833 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:42,800 Speaker 1: You can't just like find some you know, plutonium rods 834 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:51,239 Speaker 1: and you know, become a nuclear billionaire overnight, you know, right, So, 835 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's like we already have a fairly 836 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 1: when when you look at like people writing about the 837 00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,720 Speaker 1: nuclear energy that we have available to us through fission, 838 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:04,279 Speaker 1: like it's already pretty safe, and you know, there are 839 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:08,480 Speaker 1: some downsides, but not nearly the amount of downsides that 840 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 1: fossil fuels have. But you know, through a steady drum 841 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:18,040 Speaker 1: beat of like disaster movies and overblown news disasters, it 842 00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:21,200 Speaker 1: keeps it as something more afraid of. And I don't 843 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's that they're all overblown, I mean, 844 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:31,400 Speaker 1: not all over compared to swaps of a nation like unforsapable. 845 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:33,239 Speaker 1: I think it's bad, but I get I get the 846 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 1: point because I think my first reaction is like nuclear bad. No, Yeah, 847 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 1: Simpsons Three Eyed Fish. Yeah, I'm specifically like from the Simpsons, 848 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:46,359 Speaker 1: I'm trained to be scared of nuclear energy for sure, 849 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: but greenhouse gases have like killed way more people. Yeah, 850 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 1: George White, do you have a similar reaction? What's your 851 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 1: first thought when you hear nuclear energy? I mean, I 852 00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 1: like you and just assume it's bad, But I'm like, 853 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I in my mind, I'm like, if 854 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 1: we had a thousand nuclear plant nuclear energy plants in America, 855 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,400 Speaker 1: would that meat? Would that be all? Wouldever be? It? Like? 856 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,479 Speaker 1: Would that be the only energy we would need? Because 857 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 1: I feel like I've read stats like that where it's like, 858 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 1: you know, it wouldn't take that many nuclear power plants 859 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:20,640 Speaker 1: around the world to like power the entire world, and 860 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,840 Speaker 1: it's like it's and in my understanding is it's clean 861 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 1: until there's a chernobyl, But then when there's a chernobyl, 862 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:28,759 Speaker 1: that's really fucking bad and you get the thread fish 863 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,080 Speaker 1: like you said, you know what I'm saying. So how 864 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: many how many troubles have we had? So we've had 865 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:36,400 Speaker 1: like two or has there been a bunch more than 866 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 1: I that I don't know about. Yeah, there's Fukushima. There 867 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 1: there's definitely been some high profile disasters, and there there 868 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 1: is something I think naturally that scares us about like 869 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:50,280 Speaker 1: such a sort of hard to wrap your mind around 870 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 1: like form of power. But I definitely don't think fission, 871 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 1: especially is without its flaws. It's just when you look 872 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:04,280 Speaker 1: at what gah like and cold has has done two people, 873 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 1: you know, it kills them in ways that they're comfortable with. 874 00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:10,680 Speaker 1: I guess you know, well, I guess comparatively, like you 875 00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:14,200 Speaker 1: have more deaths from fossil fuel burning energy generation that 876 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:19,120 Speaker 1: you would like these nuclear you know, like millions or something. Yeah, 877 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:22,400 Speaker 1: like way, way wait, wait, wait way more. Yeah. I 878 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,400 Speaker 1: think that's what makes the fusion thing so exciting is 879 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,840 Speaker 1: where you go, well, guess what, none of that is 880 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 1: a possibility with fusion. In fact, like you can't even 881 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 1: make nuclear weapons with fusion like a fusion reaction type 882 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,400 Speaker 1: like facility. So there's like all this stuff. You're like, 883 00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 1: it's actually the best fucking way possible. And but then 884 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 1: like and I'm like, okay, great, so we're out of 885 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: the woods. But again, I feel like they only were 886 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:50,640 Speaker 1: able to do that in a small, controlled like experiment, 887 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 1: and now it's about scaling that up to like a 888 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:55,600 Speaker 1: commercial level, which they say is like maybe a couple 889 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:59,840 Speaker 1: of decades away. But yeah, yeah it was in college. 890 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 1: There was this lake near my college that was man 891 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:06,239 Speaker 1: made and there was a nuclear power plant nearby, and 892 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,879 Speaker 1: the lake was always warm. And the local people were like, yeah, 893 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 1: the power plant, Like it's just because you know, like 894 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 1: the like the pipes or some ship like running. It's like, I, 895 00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 1: so it's always warm, It's always warming it. And I 896 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:19,680 Speaker 1: was like that sounds bad, Like that sounds really bad. 897 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:22,399 Speaker 1: Like we're swimming in like a man made lake. It's 898 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,880 Speaker 1: a hot spring and hot a nuclear powered hot spring. Nuclear. 899 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,400 Speaker 1: Yeah you guys want to go swimming at the nuclear 900 00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:31,319 Speaker 1: hot spring? Yeah? You want to go to Three eyed 901 00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 1: Frog Lake? Right? Okay. It is again like talking about 902 00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:38,760 Speaker 1: things that are like really intertwined. It's hard to figure 903 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:40,720 Speaker 1: out how much of it is just like a natural 904 00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:44,600 Speaker 1: fear of like, well, radiation is this thing that we 905 00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,800 Speaker 1: don't like fully understand, we know as bad as compared 906 00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:52,480 Speaker 1: to fossil fuels. But there's also been a concerted smear 907 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:57,800 Speaker 1: campaign by fossil fuel companies to make nuclear energy terrifying 908 00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 1: because gas is something one person can you know, put 909 00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:04,800 Speaker 1: in a truck and sell to another person. And you know, 910 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:09,840 Speaker 1: nuclear power, you need government level budgets to invest in 911 00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 1: a power plant that requires you know, massive infrastructure and resources, 912 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:20,920 Speaker 1: and then everything you know from there is much more efficient. 913 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:25,360 Speaker 1: But that's not a thing that you can like easily 914 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:29,879 Speaker 1: incorporate into the system of the money system of the world. 915 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:33,359 Speaker 1: And then also, like the most most of the money 916 00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 1: in the world are a great deal of the money 917 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,319 Speaker 1: in the world, at least at this time, is tied 918 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:41,240 Speaker 1: up in the current system of global capitalism and private 919 00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:45,719 Speaker 1: privatization and deregulation. And this would move and you really, 920 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,360 Speaker 1: you really want to closely regulate these nuclear power plants. 921 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:52,319 Speaker 1: They'd be like whoa, whoa, whoa, everybody's getting electricity now 922 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:56,600 Speaker 1: for like cheap off fuck because they're already like you think, 923 00:52:56,600 --> 00:53:00,120 Speaker 1: how hard, Like fossil fuel companies were fighting soul or 924 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 1: energy and like, but but technology has gotten to the 925 00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:05,719 Speaker 1: point where they're like, sorry, like this one's gonna get 926 00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:07,440 Speaker 1: away from you more and more, as more people are like, 927 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 1: well funk it, then I'll put on my house if 928 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:11,319 Speaker 1: I have to. Like the idea where they're like, well, fun, man, 929 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:13,800 Speaker 1: they just the fucking sun gives them that, and this 930 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: thing makes like a son basically that they can exploit 931 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,719 Speaker 1: the energy off of. That's like a fucking nightmare for 932 00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:24,520 Speaker 1: like a lobbyist whose interests are like, gotta keep gotta 933 00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 1: keep the fucking dinosaur bones at the forefront. Yeah, guys, 934 00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:31,920 Speaker 1: you want to burn up dinosaur bones or some weird 935 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 1: freaky science future ship. Come on, y'all, I'm with dinosaur bones. 936 00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,360 Speaker 1: This might sound like a dumb question, but why is 937 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:42,800 Speaker 1: fusion so much harder than fission? Like? What is it 938 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,160 Speaker 1: that has made the fusion things so like out of 939 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 1: our reach? No clue? Okay, respect, I couldn't tell you. 940 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:52,879 Speaker 1: I wish this was that kind of podcast. Could Could 941 00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 1: it be that fission was you know, easier to turn 942 00:53:56,640 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 1: into a weapon, and so they you know that they 943 00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:01,640 Speaker 1: were out at the cutting edge of that, and had 944 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,319 Speaker 1: there there were more resources invested in it. I don't 945 00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 1: know that that makes sense to me, But I actually 946 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:09,880 Speaker 1: haven't done done the research. It just might be, you know, 947 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 1: from a science perspective, like much more, much more difficult. 948 00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:17,759 Speaker 1: But I just I'm interested to watch how this story unfolds, 949 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 1: because you know, I have absolutely no doubt that the 950 00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:28,799 Speaker 1: global corporate order will find ways to sabotage the use 951 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:31,000 Speaker 1: of nuclear power in this form as well, or at 952 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:34,040 Speaker 1: least try to. But I also think they'll be going 953 00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:39,600 Speaker 1: with the grain of you know, the hive mind of 954 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:44,160 Speaker 1: global capitalism, and and people naturally will just kind of 955 00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:47,719 Speaker 1: want to reject this, even though even though it I 956 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 1: don't know, it has a good head start because the 957 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 1: first thing we're finding out about it is like they 958 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:55,840 Speaker 1: created a son in a lab as opposed to you know, 959 00:54:56,239 --> 00:55:00,800 Speaker 1: nuclear weapons. So well, and maybe a benefit the lazy 960 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:03,160 Speaker 1: Google search I did is that it just takes way 961 00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 1: more energy to fuse atoms than to split them. That's 962 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:09,440 Speaker 1: the other thing. And the amount of pressure and all 963 00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 1: this other stuff they have to recreate. Refusion to take 964 00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:13,920 Speaker 1: place just much harder than splitting in the atom and 965 00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:16,239 Speaker 1: make ship go boom. I mean, it's metaphorical, right, It's 966 00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: way way harder to like bring things together than just 967 00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 1: destroy shi. Yeah, and then look at and look at 968 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:26,040 Speaker 1: the unbelievable power unleashed in people and the things coming 969 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:29,880 Speaker 1: together versus a part. A good metaphor, a good metaphor. 970 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:33,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, did you guys see that thing with Christopher 971 00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 1: Nolan recently? About yeah, like, so what did he do? 972 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,160 Speaker 1: He like, he's he's he's bragging that he CRUs able 973 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:42,800 Speaker 1: to recreate an atomic blast without c g I. And 974 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,279 Speaker 1: then everyone's like, so wait are you saying, what did 975 00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 1: you do? You blew up like a small atomic But 976 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 1: I didn't quite understand. Yeah, we just saw the headline. 977 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 1: It to me, it sounds like he was able to 978 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:57,799 Speaker 1: create a mushroom cloud, you know, which doesn't necessarily need 979 00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:00,040 Speaker 1: like an atomic bomb to do. But yeah, I have 980 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 1: a feeling that wouldn't put it past sick, like, yeah, 981 00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:06,480 Speaker 1: I made a mushroom cloud. Do you guys get that 982 00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:09,279 Speaker 1: on camera? Yeah. It's also why when you look back 983 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 1: at like the history of the US and you know 984 00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 1: during the Cold War there they were just so cavalier 985 00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:19,080 Speaker 1: with nuclear weapons. They're just like bombing, just like bombing 986 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:24,000 Speaker 1: you know, places in the desert, like within you know 987 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 1: sight range of Las Vegas. All the time. They had 988 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:30,160 Speaker 1: like a Las Vegas beauty pageant that was like Mrs 989 00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:33,160 Speaker 1: a bomb and like you see, like as the beauty 990 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 1: pageants happening, you could see like mushroom clouds in the distance. 991 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:39,440 Speaker 1: So I'm sure that also didn't help with people's willingness 992 00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:42,239 Speaker 1: to you know, the fact that it was mostly a 993 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:46,319 Speaker 1: weapons thing for like when it first came on the scene. Yeah, 994 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:49,360 Speaker 1: well and yeah, and also we just have the worst examples. 995 00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:52,480 Speaker 1: When you hear the word nuclear or atomic, it's not 996 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:56,479 Speaker 1: like yeah, and like the jet pack that saved everyone's life. 997 00:56:56,600 --> 00:57:00,759 Speaker 1: It's like Adam bombs you know that horrible ship or 998 00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:05,200 Speaker 1: Chernobyl you saw that on HBO. Anyway, that and then 999 00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:09,120 Speaker 1: your immediately uh yeah, but bring on the fusion please, 1000 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,080 Speaker 1: And I think honestly, it may I know, like there 1001 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,759 Speaker 1: is a obviously we know that something that we could 1002 00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 1: just be like infinitely replicated like and created like energy 1003 00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:21,120 Speaker 1: is a bit of a kind of gross idea to 1004 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:24,320 Speaker 1: fossil fuel companies. But I also feels like it gives 1005 00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:27,880 Speaker 1: like society the out to like where they're like, no, man, 1006 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 1: if we can just do fucking this, then we can 1007 00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 1: fucking eat the meat and do fucking everything else, and 1008 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:36,480 Speaker 1: then we can just just nip this part in the 1009 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 1: butt and then have free energy for everyone. So who knows. 1010 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:41,760 Speaker 1: I mean, we're not we're not exactly about doing the 1011 00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 1: work on this country. So yeah, I certainly saw it 1012 00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:51,080 Speaker 1: as like, wow, science really did it yeah, I mean it, 1013 00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:54,920 Speaker 1: it'll just be interesting to see if we're willing to 1014 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 1: use it. But well, right, and then the and the 1015 00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: other thing being is we can't wait twenty to thirty years, 1016 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:03,000 Speaker 1: so then be like, all right, clean energy. It's also 1017 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 1: we need to be doing that ship yesterday, so at 1018 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 1: least we had a break. All right.
