Speaker 1: Paul from John.
Speaker 2: John Well, Hi there, how are you?
Speaker 3: I'm doing all right anyways?
Speaker 4: Right now?
Speaker 2: Why just all right, John.
Speaker 3: Well, in all seriousness, this year has been bad, really
Speaker 3: really bad.
Speaker 2: Tell me why.
Speaker 5: It really just started in July.
Speaker 3: But it's an issue that's done in my life for
Speaker 3: like three four years. I fell in love with this girl.
Speaker 5: It's stupid, it's really stupid. I met her on o'megel
Speaker 5: and I fell in love with this girl and her
Speaker 5: pretty much almost stated for like three four years, and
Speaker 5: we reconnected and we blocked each other and we reconnected
Speaker 5: every single time, but every time I got back into
Speaker 5: contact with her, we just instantly go back into love.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, i'mna let you finid. I want, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: let you finish, but I do have questions.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, every time we reconnected, we felt instantly back in
Speaker 5: the love, like there was literally nothing that either of
Speaker 5: us could have done to make each other not want
Speaker 5: to be with each other. We in our soul like
Speaker 5: we literally cannot be without each other. And it's just
Speaker 5: it only resurfaces every.
Speaker 3: Now and then, and it really hurts because I just.
Speaker 6: It's it's so hard to put in the words. I
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 3: If I even have a reason to love her. I
Speaker 3: don't even know if I should keep it.
Speaker 2: Real quick hmm. I want you to know, and this
Speaker 2: is this is an unpopular opinion, but I believe it
Speaker 2: with all my heart, and I'm not I'm being being
Speaker 2: genuine right now. I know I've been meming a lot,
Speaker 2: but I'm being very genuine right now. I don't think, okay,
Speaker 2: what you said that it was weird, right mm hmm?
Speaker 2: What was what? The fact that you met on a
Speaker 2: megal was weird?
Speaker 5: Yeah, just the fact that we met on omegle like
Speaker 5: she lived in Arkansas.
Speaker 2: And I think I think that's okay. It's not weird.
Speaker 2: It's not weird because look, the the the way in
Speaker 2: which you meet people is irrelevant. Once you've met, you've met,
Speaker 2: you've been connected. The fact that it was on a
Speaker 2: megal it doesn't matter at all. You are now in
Speaker 2: connection with another person. The fact that you happened to
Speaker 2: find out about each other through a megal, it doesn't
Speaker 2: matter at all. So that's not something to feel weird about.
Speaker 2: I don't think that's stupid. It's like when people it's
Speaker 2: like when people say that they don't want to meet
Speaker 2: someone on Tinder. It's like once you who fucking cares?
Speaker 2: Once you've already met, who cares? Where it started?
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 6: And I just wanted to point out just like.
Speaker 8: Because like I know that everyone in chat is probably
Speaker 8: be just.
Speaker 3: Like, did this guy's bullshitting?
Speaker 5: Nobody fucking falls in love with someone from but like.
Speaker 2: People fall in love on a megal all the time.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't a lot of friends who actually are
Speaker 5: still dating from Omegel.
Speaker 2: See your friends got you went to and you know, look,
Speaker 2: it's too perfectly legitimate. So I don't think it's that's
Speaker 2: even a factor. And whats your problem is that she
Speaker 2: lives in in you know, freaking Mars and you live
Speaker 2: on the sun.
Speaker 4: You know, yeah, that's that's not the problem though.
Speaker 2: What's the problem.
Speaker 6: The problem is.
Speaker 3: That I'm on the the down end of reconnecting with
Speaker 3: her again. She I'll just give you the cliff Might's version.
Speaker 5: It was it was July, late July, me and her,
Speaker 5: we have gotten back into contact, and I couldn't fucking
Speaker 5: believe it, but we scheduled, we scheduled a date for
Speaker 5: us to meet. We had she bought the plane ticket.
Speaker 5: She literally spent one hundred and seventy dollars to come
Speaker 5: and see me.
Speaker 6: She sent me the fucking screenshot.
Speaker 5: Okay, and literally literally just a week later, we've been
Speaker 5: talking every single day and.
Speaker 4: I was just so excited.
Speaker 5: Me and my family were about to go on vacation
Speaker 5: per week, and then after that vacation, we well, I
Speaker 5: had planned to go pick her up in the airport,
Speaker 5: and then basically what happened was the moment that.
Speaker 9: I got to to the island where we were gonna
Speaker 9: go vacation, the moment I got to the beach and
Speaker 9: set my feet on it, I received a text from
Speaker 9: her that said I need the night to myself.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, And then after that she blocked me, and
Speaker 3: I later found out that she went back to her
Speaker 3: abusive ex boyfriend.
Speaker 6: Of about two years. And the part that kills.
Speaker 5: Me is that he abuses her, he urates her, He
Speaker 5: fucking puts her down, never spent any time with her. Always,
Speaker 5: gaslights are always, stonewalls are every literally every bad thing.
Speaker 3: And I tried as hard as I could to get her.
Speaker 2: What's what's what's what's your name? I'm John John? How
Speaker 2: old are you?
Speaker 1: I'm twenty.
Speaker 2: John. Yeah, I say, this is your friend. If you're
Speaker 2: my friend, this is what I would tell you in life.
Speaker 2: Sometimes you just got to take an l and move on.
Speaker 2: And you and you know what, this is part of
Speaker 2: your life experience. Okay, this is not anything I don't
Speaker 2: you know, people people might meme on you, but I
Speaker 2: don't think this is this is unnatural. Okay, you're gonna
Speaker 2: live and you're gonna learn. But you've leaved John. You
Speaker 2: you experienced this, and now it is time for you
Speaker 2: to learn. And I and I really do believe that
Speaker 2: you need to stop, immediately stop. I hate I hate
Speaker 2: the Scrol. I hate her. I don't I don't want
Speaker 2: anything to do. I don't want you to have anything
Speaker 2: with her. She lives in Arkansas. She might as well
Speaker 2: be a fictional character in a book. Move on, leave her,
Speaker 2: leave her behind, keep moving, Move on, John, your life. John,
Speaker 2: You're John. You're only twenty years old. John, John, You're
Speaker 2: only twenty years old. John, You there's so much I
Speaker 2: don't know. I don't I know that, I don't know
Speaker 2: if I'm telling you anything that anyone hasn't already told you,
Speaker 2: because this is pretty conventional stuff. But John, you're only
Speaker 2: twenty years old, John, so much more than you could
Speaker 2: be doing. Just move on, don't let this this girl.
Speaker 2: She has her problems and and and and I feel
Speaker 2: for her, and she's got a lot that she's got
Speaker 2: to deal with in her life. But but you can't.
Speaker 2: You you, you you got a lot you gotta deal
Speaker 2: with in your life too, okay. And and you just
Speaker 2: gotta let her handle her stuff and you gotta you
Speaker 2: gotta focus on on your stuff. Okay. I think it's
Speaker 2: good that you block you Okay, I think you move on, John,
Speaker 2: I think you move on. You got to take the L,
Speaker 2: and don't feel bad about take on the L. Don't
Speaker 2: don't beat yourself up. Don't when you're when you're twenty four.
Speaker 2: Don't lay awake at night being like, oh man, I
Speaker 2: was so fucking dumb when I did the No. This
Speaker 2: is this is this is good. This is a good thing. John.
Speaker 10: You got fat.
Speaker 2: And you're gonna be better for it.
Speaker 3: The reason I called you because I've been trying to
Speaker 3: give myself that L all summer and I can't get
Speaker 3: her out of my head. And I've been trying to
Speaker 3: give myself that L every time she blocked me. Past
Speaker 3: four times, and I haven't been able to do it.
Speaker 3: And no matter how many times I tell myself that
Speaker 3: I'm going to find someone who's going to be better
Speaker 3: for me than her.
Speaker 2: Oh, don't don't do that. Don't do that, don't do that.
Speaker 2: Don't do that, don't don't don't.
Speaker 1: Try to.

Speaker 2: Hold on?
Speaker 11: Hold on?
Speaker 8: John?
Speaker 10: M John?
Speaker 2: I know you're upset. Yeah, I get What do you do?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 2: What do you do all day.
Speaker 12: About?
Speaker 2: Are you in school? Do you have a job.
Speaker 5: I'm I'm I took a semester off, but I go
Speaker 5: to school and for a day job.
Speaker 3: I guess you'd call that.
Speaker 5: I'm actually a professional wit maker, Like I make the
Speaker 5: woosh crack, like I make whips.
Speaker 2: I make up whips. That's fucking awesome, man.
Speaker 3: I have a whole TikTok and everything.
Speaker 2: See John, John, I I feel I feel like a
Speaker 2: lot of the trap that a lot of people get into.
Speaker 2: I've gotten to this trap myself. I've talked about this
Speaker 2: a long time, but but a lot of trap a
Speaker 2: lot of people get into is they don't have anything
Speaker 2: else in their life that makes them independent, that makes
Speaker 2: them happy independent of being in a relationship. So they
Speaker 2: seek out a relationship to make them happy, which fucks
Speaker 2: them over so hard. And I don't know you very well.
Speaker 7: I know that truth.
Speaker 11: I've told myself that truth every night.
Speaker 5: Is that if I want to ever be happy, I
Speaker 5: need to have my own life apart from somebody that
Speaker 5: I love. I need to have this love in tansient
Speaker 5: with in conjunction with that success.
Speaker 4: But I can't.
Speaker 6: I can't be happy without hurt. It's like every single
Speaker 6: time I get.
Speaker 5: Into a relationship, I only think about how it compared
Speaker 5: to her.
Speaker 2: John, stop dating, stop delete, delete your tender account, don't
Speaker 2: go on a megal, don't do it. Just just focus
Speaker 2: on the whips. And it's by the way, it's gonna
Speaker 2: be hard, and look, the only thing it's gonna heal us,
Speaker 2: I believe is time and putting effort towards a thing
Speaker 2: that will make you into happy independent of this girl.
Speaker 2: And it seems like you've got good stuff going on.
Speaker 2: It seems like you got you got the whips. I
Speaker 2: love the whips thing. The whips thing is sick. This
Speaker 2: thing is amazing. And by the way you look, if you.
Speaker 2: Let's say, if you didn't date anyone, if you stop that,
Speaker 2: if you deleted your amgals, you delted your tennis, you
Speaker 2: just focused on the things that will make you happy
Speaker 2: in your life independent of other people for like four years,
Speaker 2: five years, fuck it, and you were like twenty five
Speaker 2: and you had all your year and you could be
Speaker 2: like to women, Oh, I have this cool whip company.
Speaker 2: They'd be like, that's fucking cool, and you're like, oh,
Speaker 2: I fucking I'm an archer. Now I find there's all
Speaker 2: these John things John, the whole life of John that
Speaker 2: you haven't even explored yet because you're fucking twenty John.
Speaker 2: You could have that John life, and then when you're
Speaker 2: twenty five, you go out and you can date and
Speaker 2: you're like, I'm John and I make eighty thousand dollars
Speaker 2: a year selling whips on TikTok. I'm amazing. I've been
Speaker 2: to Taiwan. You know where's that? John? Go find that? John? Okay? John?
Speaker 2: Does that make any sense? By making any am I
Speaker 2: going crazy? Right now?
Speaker 7: John?
Speaker 1: I don't mean this.
Speaker 4: John, No, it makes total sense.
Speaker 6: It makes total, complete sense.
Speaker 4: It's just the fact that I am, without a doubt, one.
Speaker 13: Of the most helpless romantics that exists today.
Speaker 5: And I who you are like not survive without having love?
Speaker 2: Like that's like okay, So John, hold on, John, John, John,
Speaker 2: I you gotta go. I I I probably should go,
Speaker 2: but I want but I I fucking everything you said.
Speaker 2: I have a Look, that's something you decided about yourself
Speaker 2: that you need love. You don't, You don't have. You
Speaker 2: have no idea if you need love. Because the thing
Speaker 2: that is out there that isn't a relationship that will
Speaker 2: make you realize that you don't need love is something
Speaker 2: that you you don't know about yet because you haven't tried.
Speaker 2: But eventually there is, there is. I believe, John, that
Speaker 2: there is a thing out there. I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's fucking archery or going to Taiwan, or or selling
Speaker 2: whips on TikTok in your whip store. I don't know
Speaker 2: what the thing is out there that's going to make
Speaker 2: you realize that that you don't need love. But it's
Speaker 2: out there, John, you gotta find it. Don't don't just hope, John,
Speaker 2: don't lose hope. Okay, because because don't, don't, let don't.
Speaker 2: Let's fuck you.
Speaker 4: Before before I go.
Speaker 3: The reason the reason I.
Speaker 5: Called you is that I wanted to ask you how
Speaker 5: am I supposed to get the falls to tell her?
Speaker 2: No? You don't have to say I don't want you
Speaker 2: to speak to her again. Don't tell her no, don't
Speaker 2: just block, just move on. Block her, delete her on
Speaker 2: all the things, delete your own Instagram if you have
Speaker 2: to get off of social but go take a week
Speaker 2: in the woods, do whatever you gotta do. Don't, don't

Speaker 2: I hate her. She she she she fucking she fucking
Speaker 2: cross you, John, she And you know what, that's fine,
Speaker 2: it's not your fault. Okay. I don't think you're a
Speaker 2: bad guy. I think I don't like what she did.
Speaker 2: But John, you don't owe her anything. Move on, fuck her,
Speaker 2: bock her on everything, never talk to her again, and
Speaker 2: and and move on. Don't You're in like a sunk
Speaker 2: cost fallacy kind of show where you've invested out all
Speaker 2: this time and now you feel like you don't want
Speaker 2: to move on. But just move on, John, take the L,
Speaker 2: take the elk L. It's gonna be the most beautiful thing.
Speaker 2: And if you take the L, you delete her on
Speaker 2: all the things. You fucking go to Taiwan. You learn
Speaker 2: her tree, you fucking sell whips. John, fuck her, John, don't, don't, don't,
Speaker 2: don't go to Taiwan.
Speaker 7: John.
Speaker 8: I'm like, go to Taiwan.
Speaker 13: But all I'll say to you before I go is,
Speaker 13: if I ever get to the point where I can
Speaker 13: live without meaning love, God help me.
Speaker 2: God lives in a giant house in the sky and
Speaker 2: he's not coming down to help any of us. But John,
Speaker 2: I love you very much and I wish you the
Speaker 2: very best. And I hope that you block that girl
Speaker 2: and everything and never talk to her again. And I
Speaker 2: hope that you go to Taiwan. I hope you learn
Speaker 2: archery and by the time you're twenty five, it will
Speaker 2: be absolutely drowning and pussy.
Speaker 7: I love you so much, man.
Speaker 4: I just found you on Reddit. I'm gonna go follow
Speaker 4: you on Twitch.
Speaker 2: Beautiful. Good night, John, Thank.
Speaker 11: You very much, thank you, good morning.
Speaker 2: And welcome to Therapy Gecko. Why at Gecko? A lot
Speaker 2: of people ask me why at Gecko, and I don't
Speaker 2: have a good answer for that question. The best answer
Speaker 2: I got is that I had a Gecko costume. It's
Speaker 2: really it. I wish I had a better story than that,
Speaker 2: though I wish I had something where like, you know,
Speaker 2: when I was six years old, I had a pet
Speaker 2: gecko and it kept me, you know, calm during my
Speaker 2: mom's divorce and ever since that. But I don't it's
Speaker 2: not anything like that. I just had a gecko costume
Speaker 2: from a different thing. And now I'm here, Let's, you
Speaker 2: know what, Let's make something up. Let's pretend like the
Speaker 2: thing I just said. Let's pretend like I do this
Speaker 2: because when I was six years old, my parents were
Speaker 2: going through a hefty divorce. And while they were you know,
Speaker 2: throwing all the fine chinea in the house at each
Speaker 2: other's feet, I would, you know, bored myself up in
Speaker 2: my room away from the violence, and the only person,
Speaker 2: the only thing there to comfort me was you know,
Speaker 2: my pet leopard gecko, and that was my therapy gecko.
Speaker 2: And ever since then, I've decided that one day, you know,
Speaker 2: I will become a therapy gecko. Let's go, that's gonna
Speaker 2: be my unofficial origin story. Let's go do me a favorite,
Speaker 2: tell everyone that that's how this started, and not just
Speaker 2: I had a gecko costume leftover from a previous bit
Speaker 2: where I dressed up as a gecko and screamed and
Speaker 2: ran around my neighborhood. I think the former is a
Speaker 2: better option of an origin story. Tonight's episode Whip It,
Speaker 2: titled in honor of our good friend John, whose story
Speaker 2: you just heard, features conversations with a Hentai artist, a
Speaker 2: bee keeper, a rat keeper, an Internet abolitionist, a world traveler,
Speaker 2: and so much more. And at the tail end of
Speaker 2: this episode, I have a special appearance from Max Simone
Speaker 2: of Adult Swims Fish Center Live and it is a
Speaker 2: beautiful experience. And guys, as you all know, you can
Speaker 2: call the Gecko every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at ten
Speaker 2: pm Eastern Standard Time on Twitch dot tv, slash Lyle Forever,
Speaker 2: Twitch dot tv, slash l y l e f O
Speaker 2: R e v e R. If you want to get therapy,
Speaker 2: gek to yourself real quick. Oh yeah, real quick. I'm
Speaker 2: also the music thing, the music interludes. I'm not doing
Speaker 2: that this podcast. We're gonna see how it sounds, just
Speaker 2: gently fading in and out of each call. Let me
Speaker 2: know if you have any feedback on any I'm always
Speaker 2: like should I do music? Should I not have music?
Speaker 2: Should I? I guess those are my only two options.
Speaker 2: If you have any feed back about any of this,
Speaker 2: If you have any questions about the pod, or you
Speaker 2: have any suggestions for the pod, feel free to hit
Speaker 2: me up on Instagram send me a DM lyle the
Speaker 2: number four ever. All right, let's get into it.
Speaker 4: How From Helen Daily.
Speaker 2: Hello, Colin Daily?
Speaker 4: Oh hello, what's up?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm kind of tired.
Speaker 4: Oh cool?
Speaker 2: Why do you think that's cool?
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, it's weird because I'm watching you right now
Speaker 4: and like there's a delay between what you're saying and
Speaker 4: what's going on over here.
Speaker 2: Oh, mute your stream. Mute your stream, don't. Don't do
Speaker 2: me a favor. Are you on your laptop right now? Yeah,
Speaker 2: go close your laptop and just be on the phone.
Speaker 2: Don't look at the stupid don't look at the chat
Speaker 2: because you don't look at the chat. Just look just
Speaker 2: we'll be on the phone.
Speaker 7: This is.
Speaker 2: So, Why is it? Why is it cool that I'm tired?
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that as I'm not saying that accusatorially.
Speaker 2: I'm actually very interested because you seem like because if
Speaker 2: I say I'm tired and you say that's cool, it
Speaker 2: seems like you're actually looking at what I'm looking at
Speaker 2: as a negative thing as a positive thing, and I'm
Speaker 2: trying to get into your head and trying to, you know,
Speaker 2: absorb your optimism so I can use it for myself.
Speaker 4: I guess just I'm tired too.
Speaker 2: Is that cool?
Speaker 4: Maybe? I don't know why. I guess it was more
Speaker 4: of a proverbial cool.
Speaker 2: But yeah, what do you mean by a proverbial cool?
Speaker 4: I don't know, just like I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what's the worst thing that's ever happened to you?
Speaker 4: Probably? Damn, I don't know, man, probably the high school?
Speaker 2: High school?
Speaker 7: What?
Speaker 2: What? How old are you now?
Speaker 4: Twenty?
Speaker 2: Now? What was so bad about hies? I know you
Speaker 2: probably know you? Hold on, are you nervous right now?
Speaker 10: Goong?
Speaker 2: What are you? Are you feeling nervous right now? You
Speaker 2: seem a little nervous a little bit.
Speaker 8: M hmm.
Speaker 2: Then take a second here, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 2: Why was high school so bad? Why didn't you like
Speaker 2: high school?
Speaker 4: Calling most of my stepdad.
Speaker 2: Your stepdad?
Speaker 12: Yeah you there, yes, ah, yeah, but I don't know.
Speaker 4: He just kind of fucked with me. I'm painting right.
Speaker 2: Now, by the way, what are you painting.
Speaker 4: Right now? I'm painting some something that's probably not going
Speaker 4: to be allowed on Twitch.
Speaker 2: Tell me about it. It's a trap, you're painting a trap? Yes,
Speaker 2: what kind of trap?
Speaker 4: A stalfo?
Speaker 8: A what.
Speaker 4: Alfo?
Speaker 2: Can you say? That's us.
Speaker 4: As t A s t o l f o.
Speaker 14: L s oh ast astolfo?
Speaker 2: What is that?
Speaker 4: Well, that's like this character from an animal And I'm
Speaker 4: doing like some like at art. But it's more for
Speaker 4: the meme than the anything else than though.
Speaker 2: It's for the meme you say.
Speaker 4: Yes, for me, painting is just ship posting onto a canvas.
Speaker 2: When you say it's a meme. Yeah, so you're you're
Speaker 2: painting this person to be funny. Yeah, well you're painting
Speaker 2: them naked.
Speaker 4: Partially?
Speaker 2: Are you attracted to this character? And but I'm by
Speaker 2: you know, look, don't be don't be you know, I mean,
Speaker 2: you know, be as be as private about your your
Speaker 2: interests as you want, but you know you don't have
Speaker 2: to be quite about it. I mean, I've you know,
Speaker 2: we've all been sexually attracted to, you know, fictional characters before.
Speaker 2: I used to have actually, you know, my very first
Speaker 2: you know pornographic experiences were with Samus Aaron. I would
Speaker 2: hack my Wii and I would make Samus Aaron naked
Speaker 2: and I would jack off to that Colin Samso no,
Speaker 2: not saying that Samus Aaron from like from like metroid.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, yeah, no, this is I don't know.
Speaker 4: I have dibbled and dabbled a little bit, but.
Speaker 12: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I prefer real people.
Speaker 2: So you're telling me there's zero sexual interest in this
Speaker 2: drawing that you're creating right now. You're strictly creating it
Speaker 2: with delicate, specific, accurate proportions that correlate with your personal
Speaker 2: fantasies of a spotty that you're sexually attracted to.
Speaker 4: I mean, whenever I do do a drawing, right, I
Speaker 4: always like the thing about it is, if you have
Speaker 4: the drawing that you're making, and it's taken you forever
Speaker 4: to make, then you no longer become sexually attracted to
Speaker 4: it after so long, just because like, it gets boring sexually.
Speaker 2: It gets boring sexually because.
Speaker 4: Because it's like the same exact pose, same exact person
Speaker 4: and everything that you're just looking at for so long.
Speaker 2: Mmm, so you get it becomes a little monotonous, a
Speaker 2: little tedious, and less exciting. So what do you do then?
Speaker 4: I mean, then I just continue painting, and then I
Speaker 4: just finished the painting and then done with this. I
Speaker 4: mean I did do with something that was like on
Speaker 4: my calculator where I just like I found out all
Speaker 4: the formulas and everything just to get like a pair
Speaker 4: of anime titties on that calculator, just tons of maths.
Speaker 4: But yeah, at the end of the day, that was
Speaker 4: not arousing because it took two months to do.
Speaker 2: So you did it for memes, So something I understand
Speaker 2: the concept. I can get behind the concept of something
Speaker 2: initially being driven by sexual arousal but over time being
Speaker 2: divulging into you know, into memes. Yeah, okay, yes, you know.
Speaker 2: When you're done with the picture, you know, feel free
Speaker 2: to send it to me.
Speaker 4: Thank you, I will.
Speaker 2: I love you, Colin, I love you too. Good night,
Speaker 2: good night. Well, he was dying to get off the phone.
Speaker 7: Awesome.
Speaker 2: Hello, Hello, how are you?
Speaker 1: I'm good?
Speaker 2: How are you? I'm good? How are you.
Speaker 10: Just chilling?
Speaker 7: You know?
Speaker 2: That's cool.
Speaker 10: So how's your day?
Speaker 2: It's good? How's yours?
Speaker 10: Pretty good? Try calling in and Google Voice started pulling
Speaker 10: the purge on me, rambling saying it was hanging up.
Speaker 10: At the same time, it told me to record my name.
Speaker 10: So you know.
Speaker 2: That's weird.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm just having dissociation, you know, vibing with life.
Speaker 2: You said you're this, you said you're disassociated, disassociating?
Speaker 10: No, not really like you know, just does it matter?
Speaker 2: Where do you associate with? Whom do you associate in
Speaker 2: the to begin with?
Speaker 10: Who do I dissociate as?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: Who do you associate with? What do you associate with?
Speaker 10: Well? My entire identity is built off my cat, uh,
Speaker 10: because I love my cat and I support her and
Speaker 10: want to protect her, and that's pretty much.
Speaker 2: What is there to protect her from.
Speaker 10: A lot of foxes and stuff. You know, she's a
Speaker 10: barn cat.
Speaker 2: She's a bong cat.
Speaker 10: Yeah, a barn cat. Yeah, I mean the cat kind
Speaker 10: of does, but not really.
Speaker 2: Who else is in the well? You know what's interesting
Speaker 2: is that if you live in a barn, I'm assuming
Speaker 2: you're around a lot of animals.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I guess so chickens, a cow, and a donkey.
Speaker 14: Bees.
Speaker 2: I'm a beekeeper and now of all these animals, Oh,
Speaker 2: let me, I have a question about bees. Actually, so
Speaker 2: you're a beekeeper, do you feel do you are you
Speaker 2: connected to the bees? Do you feel like do you
Speaker 2: feel sort of. Oh, do you have a relationship with
Speaker 2: the bees in the same way that you have a
Speaker 2: relationship with your cat?
Speaker 10: So I mean not technically, because you know, bees have
Speaker 10: a pretty short life span. Spends on the time, but
Speaker 10: some die around like yeah, eight fifteen days. But the problem,
Speaker 10: the really cool thing is bees recognize your carbon dioxide signature,
Speaker 10: so when you open a hive and breathe out on them,
Speaker 10: they can actually become accustomed to you as a person.
Speaker 2: Interesting. So you might not love the bees, you might
Speaker 2: not grottach to the bees, but do you think maybe
Speaker 2: the bees gro attached to you in a similar way. Oh?
Speaker 10: No, the bees hate me. They try to sing me
Speaker 10: every time because then I go in, I rip their
Speaker 10: hive apart, and you know, from their point, I'm killing
Speaker 10: them all. But from my point, I'm giving them food.
Speaker 2: But do you think that you that well, it sounds
Speaker 2: like a sort of a God type relationship. I mean,
Speaker 2: we pray to God, we worship God, but sometimes he
Speaker 2: comes down to earth and kills us with you know,
Speaker 2: disease and hurricanes and cancer, which.
Speaker 1: Is the disease.
Speaker 7: But the bees, I wish I could.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I feel like if they thought I was a God,
Speaker 10: then they'd do what I want more, but instead they
Speaker 10: just suck around.
Speaker 2: What do you want them to do?
Speaker 10: I want them to not swarm. I want them to
Speaker 10: stay in their hive and stop dying. And they don't
Speaker 10: want to do that. They're evolutionary programmed to just suck
Speaker 10: around and die every spring.
Speaker 2: That doesn't make sense though, that there how can you
Speaker 2: be programmed to die? There's the whole point of evolution
Speaker 2: that you get new things to help you not die.
Speaker 10: Yeah, the problem is that they're evolved to live in
Speaker 10: the earth and then they come out and all these
Speaker 10: pesticides are besides New World everything called an ajor beekeeping
Speaker 10: is over. So now they go out and they do
Speaker 10: these swarms, which are the macro organism of the hive
Speaker 10: splitting in half. Right now, there's nowhere for the other
Speaker 10: half of the hive to go.
Speaker 2: It's kind of sad. Let me ask you another thing.
Speaker 2: Do you ever do you feel? Do you ever feel remorseful?
Speaker 10: Remorseful? I mean, I feel bad about my mistakes, but
Speaker 10: not remorseful. I don't think I've done anything too fucked
Speaker 10: up to be remorseful.
Speaker 2: Do you, Well, don't you don't look at what you're
Speaker 2: you don't look at destroying and killing bees as fucked up.
Speaker 10: Oh, uh no, because you know, I recognize that it
Speaker 10: means to a greater end, because you know, I got
Speaker 10: to kill a couple hundred bees when I do testing
Speaker 10: for verroa, a really bad mite. But I'm saving literal
Speaker 10: millions of bees. The entire ecosystem of the region I'm
Speaker 10: in depends on my mother and I hives.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of responsibility.
Speaker 10: I'm sorry, I didn't hear you.
Speaker 2: That's a lot of responsibility.
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's nice. Though these are cool. We don't know
Speaker 10: a lot about them. They're some of the most complicated
Speaker 10: organisms on Earth, and researchers know absolutely nothing about them.
Speaker 12: All right.
Speaker 2: But they don't know nothing, all right. No, they know
Speaker 2: a little bit about them.
Speaker 7: But the thing is, if.
Speaker 2: I read you the Wikipedia page of the bee and
Speaker 2: it was blank, then that would be nothing. But they know,
Speaker 2: like you know, death, between what you know about be
Speaker 2: and what I know about bees is would take a
Speaker 2: lifetime for me to fill. Wo I'm maybe like three months.
Speaker 2: How long would it take for me to know everything
Speaker 2: about bees that you know?
Speaker 10: Uh, depends on what course you'd taking it in. I
Speaker 10: apprenticed under a master beekeeper, and I'm now at journeyman levels,
Speaker 10: So that's probably take you about two years if you
Speaker 10: did it every day.
Speaker 2: See, but there, how can there be how can we
Speaker 2: not know anything? We know enough about bees for there
Speaker 2: to be a goddamn master of bees?
Speaker 14: Yes, well, my black.
Speaker 7: Guy is a god keeper.
Speaker 10: Yeah. So the problem with master beekeepers is that a
Speaker 10: lot of what they know isn't about bees themselves. It's
Speaker 10: about how to take care of them and how to
Speaker 10: work around their quirks. When we actually go and research
Speaker 10: why do queens do this weird mating call? Why do
Speaker 10: they respond to this pheromone? Why do these produce these comes?
Speaker 10: We don't even know why they chill outside their hive.
Speaker 11: Every day.
Speaker 2: Because they're.
Speaker 10: Yeah, they do this thing called beard where a bunch
Speaker 10: of the workers will basically just coagulate on the front
Speaker 10: of the hive and just chill there for the entire
Speaker 10: fucking debt. And we have no goddamn idea why that's
Speaker 10: so dumb?
Speaker 2: I love if science stopped there, right, if you were like,
Speaker 2: why do bees fly? Why do bees do this? Because
Speaker 2: they're dumb ass bees?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 2: Why do birds fly in a v for me. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they're fucking shitty ass birds. Yeah, that was like in books,
Speaker 2: that'd be awesome, that would save us.
Speaker 10: Man, I wish it was like that. I'm an environmental
Speaker 10: science student, so like that's literally the dream.
Speaker 2: Yeah, imagine filling out in a test, like you know,
Speaker 2: why why do chimpanzees get attracted to certain pheromonia when
Speaker 2: exposed to Because they're dumb little chimps, so they don't matter.
Speaker 2: And then you get an a.
Speaker 10: Yeah, no if they do what they do? Mad respect?
Speaker 2: Mad respect? Would you say your name.
Speaker 10: Was River.
Speaker 2: River? Your name is River? Yep, your name is River
Speaker 2: the Beekeeper?
Speaker 11: Yes, sir, that's cool as ship.
Speaker 7: Thanks.
Speaker 10: My mother's name is Brooke and my name's are derivative
Speaker 10: of that. So we go and we look exactly alike too,
Speaker 10: So we get Brooke and River the Beekeepers, Brooken River.
Speaker 2: Where can I buy some? Do you do you independently
Speaker 2: sell honey or some ship?
Speaker 10: I mean yeah, but where can we buy down in Virginia?
Speaker 8: There?
Speaker 10: We just sell at farm like farm fans.
Speaker 2: But can I order some?
Speaker 10: I don't think you can because like we got a
Speaker 10: real limited supply this season, we probably won't be selling anyone.
Speaker 2: Well you know. I hope that whoever does get your
Speaker 2: honey enjoys it.
Speaker 10: All right.
Speaker 11: Thanks, thank you absolutely, River.
Speaker 2: I love you very much and I do.
Speaker 8: Believe that, all right.
Speaker 10: I love you too, together forever in the time, I hope. Yeah,
Speaker 10: I hope the bees love you.
Speaker 2: I hope so too.
Speaker 10: Good night, River, good night.
Speaker 7: Pull from Alex.
Speaker 11: To accept prep Alex.
Speaker 2: Hello, hello, Alex, Hello, Hello Alex.
Speaker 11: Okay, I need your advice, all right, hit me Alex.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 7: So I recently, so I have two rats, right, and
Speaker 7: then I decided impulsively that I was gonna buy two
Speaker 7: more rats. However, one of the rats turn out to
Speaker 7: be a female and all the rest they are male,
Speaker 7: and now I can't house them together.
Speaker 2: How many rats did you buy?
Speaker 7: Not enough rats?
Speaker 2: Okay? So you can't house one female rat with how
Speaker 2: many male rats?
Speaker 7: Three male rats?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 7: I feel like they're all just gonna like, you know,
Speaker 7: like I already have four now, and if I have
Speaker 7: a if.
Speaker 15: I have like.
Speaker 7: They if she has babies, it's like sixteen rats.
Speaker 2: So why did you get any can you have the rat? Neotered?
Speaker 2: What are you getting these What are you getting these
Speaker 2: rats for?
Speaker 7: I'm really lonely and like my rats like bite me
Speaker 7: sometimes because I think I scared them when I tried
Speaker 7: to like change their house. So that just gives me
Speaker 7: like a lot more warmth than I had before because COVID.
Speaker 2: Okay, so you got rats to keep you company, but
Speaker 2: the rats bit you. Yeah, why do you think they
Speaker 2: bit you, Alex.
Speaker 7: I think I scared them when I tried to move
Speaker 7: them into I got them a bigger cage so then
Speaker 7: I could put a lot of like hanging toys in
Speaker 7: there so they can climb. Because one of my rats
Speaker 7: was getting really fat because he just like he liked
Speaker 7: to sit and pee in the same spot. It was
Speaker 7: just there was so much pee, and like I just
Speaker 7: had to get a mobile, you know.
Speaker 2: But so you just but you just bought. So you
Speaker 2: just bought four rats. You bought three female you bought
Speaker 2: three male rats and one female rat.
Speaker 7: No, I bought two male rats, and then they got
Speaker 7: into like you know, they grew up to big boys.
Speaker 7: But I got two more because they're gonna be feed rats.
Speaker 7: And I felt really bad. But then the one rats
Speaker 7: turned out to be a female because like when they're small,
Speaker 7: you can't see their like balls. Because when they're older,
Speaker 7: their balls are like huge.
Speaker 2: How many rats are there total in your house?
Speaker 7: There are currently four rats, but if the female rats pregnant,
Speaker 7: then there's probably like sixteen, but like a couple of
Speaker 7: you know, they're like cooking them.
Speaker 2: The more friends you have, more friends, you're gonna be
Speaker 2: like Cinderella.
Speaker 7: I'm gonna no, no, no, I'm gonna lose my fingers if
Speaker 7: they like get if there's any more, going to bite
Speaker 7: off my fingers because you know, I try to get
Speaker 7: them treats. No, I try to get them treats, but
Speaker 7: then like my fingers smell like the treat and then
Speaker 7: they try to eat my fingers, and then I think
Speaker 7: I stress them out and then they try to bite
Speaker 7: my fingers.
Speaker 2: Why did you pick rat?
Speaker 4: For?
Speaker 2: Let me ask you another question. Why did you pick rats?
Speaker 2: Because so far, the only information I have about these rats,
Speaker 2: not about specifically your relationship to these rats, is that
Speaker 2: they bite you. Why the rats as your as the
Speaker 2: as your your.
Speaker 4: I picked rat.
Speaker 7: I picked rats because they're like, I don't know, there's
Speaker 7: just they're just like such big boys. I just want
Speaker 7: to like put rats. I just want to like carry
Speaker 7: rats around on me, like specifically my head and just
Speaker 7: like have them like mest in my hair because I
Speaker 7: have long hair.
Speaker 2: I respect that.
Speaker 7: So I just wanted to have but I want to have.
Speaker 2: I mean, these guys are biting you. They're biting your
Speaker 2: fingers off.
Speaker 7: You are hungry, all right.
Speaker 2: I don't think I've I apologize as because I've I've
Speaker 2: veered too far away from your central dilemma, which is
Speaker 2: that you have a female rat and you can't have
Speaker 2: with three other rats? So what do you do? I mean,
Speaker 2: what else can you do? You gotta.
Speaker 1: You gotta?
Speaker 2: Oh, all right, I have I have a variety of
Speaker 2: options for you, Alex, tell me what.
Speaker 1: You think of these?
Speaker 7: Okay, lead them out.
Speaker 2: You could give one of the rats a sex change
Speaker 2: and then have two separate things because because you wouldn't
Speaker 2: want to put the female rat alone.
Speaker 7: Because well, I think like removing their balls? Does that?
Speaker 7: Isn't that a sex change? Or is that just muttering?
Speaker 7: What's the difference for rats? Is it mental?
Speaker 2: I have no idea?
Speaker 1: You know what?
Speaker 2: Where's that? Where? Who's who's the what happened to the mammals? Specialist? Caller?
Speaker 2: She knows this.
Speaker 7: You're the therapist. You should know.
Speaker 2: Why would I know that?
Speaker 1: More?
Speaker 2: Than the we had the mammal doctor called where's the
Speaker 2: mammal doctor, Where's the kangaroo girl?
Speaker 7: The kangaroo doctor?
Speaker 4: No, I think, I think.
Speaker 7: So the problem is and the only time they can
Speaker 7: they can rip my rats uterus out of her body
Speaker 7: is in December.
Speaker 2: And that makes why why why in December?
Speaker 7: Because COVID I I don't know, maybe you know.
Speaker 2: Was the thing about you getting an appointment? I thought
Speaker 2: it was like you can only get rid of in
Speaker 2: the month of December.
Speaker 7: Yeah, only when the stars are specifically aligned in this
Speaker 7: year's December is one. Rat uteruses can be hard, yeah,
Speaker 7: And so like now I'm like waiting and they're getting
Speaker 7: so big, and like I housed her with her brother
Speaker 7: right now, but he like tried to like he like
Speaker 7: mounded her a couple of times and had to like
Speaker 7: shoot him. I was like, oh, don't do that, you know, like, oh,
Speaker 7: don't do that.
Speaker 4: Get off.
Speaker 2: Alex. I think you know, do you know the concept
Speaker 2: of the monkey circle?
Speaker 7: The monkey circle?
Speaker 2: Yeah, the monkey circle? No, basically all right, let's say
Speaker 2: you had one. Let's say you had a monkey, right,
Speaker 2: so you had a rat, yeah, and the rat you know,
Speaker 2: you raised the rat and you love the rat that
Speaker 2: got to become a big boy. The rats scurried all
Speaker 2: around in your head and over your hair, and you
Speaker 2: named it and you loved it. And then one day
Speaker 2: the rat died.
Speaker 7: Would you say that?
Speaker 2: Hold on, well, hold on, let me finish. He's very sad, right, yeah,
Speaker 2: but let's well, hold on, hold on, hold on. Let's
Speaker 2: say you add one hundred rats. Right, So you had
Speaker 2: one hundred rats that you cared for and your race
Speaker 2: in like, you know, sort of a scaled fashion, right,
Speaker 2: and then one of the rats died. Would you be
Speaker 2: You'd be You'd be sad, but not nearly as sad
Speaker 2: as you would be with just a one rat.
Speaker 7: So you're saying I should get an exponential amount of
Speaker 7: rats to what I currently have.
Speaker 2: Well, actually, I was going for the idea that you
Speaker 2: should only have one rat because it'll make the bond
Speaker 2: more special. But I actually like your interpretation better. It's
Speaker 2: a way to be sad, So I think you should
Speaker 2: actually get you should get more rats.
Speaker 7: Okay, you know what, I don't new to her. Instead,
Speaker 7: I'll just make sure she gets pregnant and then I'll
Speaker 7: just I'll just like let them roam free in my
Speaker 7: house instead of keeping them in a cage and then
Speaker 7: instead and then I don't have to worry about it,
Speaker 7: because then, like if they do fuck, there's so much
Speaker 7: room for them to have children. I'll just throw the
Speaker 7: rat food on the floor. I like it, so then
Speaker 7: they can eat it and piss on it.
Speaker 2: Well, Alex, I think, you know what. I think that
Speaker 2: we did a good job because we came in here
Speaker 2: with a with a problem, and we came out of
Speaker 2: here with a solution.
Speaker 7: I know this is honestly, everyone's been trying to give
Speaker 7: me advice, but like this is the only advice that
Speaker 7: I needed to hear.
Speaker 2: Beautiful, Well, Alex, I love you very much. I can't
Speaker 2: wait to hear more about your rat brothel.
Speaker 7: Okay, and well, I won't call you anymore, but I
Speaker 7: do love you and I love my wrath.
Speaker 2: You have a good night, Alex. Appreciate you going on here.
Speaker 8: Call from build this?
Speaker 4: What's up?
Speaker 2: Buildings? How you doing?
Speaker 8: Hey llo?
Speaker 7: Love your show man?
Speaker 2: Thank you man, I love you, Thank you.
Speaker 4: Hey man.
Speaker 15: It's real fitting that you're in a Shibuya there with
Speaker 15: this corona thing. I went to Japan right before all this,
Speaker 15: and you know I was planning on taking another trip.
Speaker 15: Japan was kind of my place. I loved being there.
Speaker 15: So yeah, I was thinking, Man, what's a guy like
Speaker 15: me supposed to do? You know, in lockdown here in
Speaker 15: the States, whenever you know, Japan's you know.
Speaker 1: The place to be.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, look, you can do what I kind
Speaker 2: of did. I mean, you can go on YouTube and
Speaker 2: you can google to walk through of Japan and then
Speaker 2: there's all these you know, hour two hour long videos
Speaker 2: of people just walking through Japan.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 15: You ever get like, uh, you know, I feel like
Speaker 15: you're trapped here, you know, you can't travel?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but I mean that's what I'm doing right now.
Speaker 2: I'm traveling virtually. I mean, that's you know, it's beautiful here.
Speaker 2: We're connecting with I'm connecting with you. I don't know
Speaker 2: where you live, but you don't live in my basement.
Speaker 2: I here from my basement. You're in Texas.
Speaker 1: See I am.
Speaker 2: I'm traveling virtually to Texas right now to interact with you.
Speaker 15: My god, I got a beer for you. I got
Speaker 15: a little Kyrie in here.
Speaker 4: I got one more for you.
Speaker 2: I'm drinking it. We're hanging out pretty much, we're hanging out.
Speaker 2: You live in Texas. I live somewhere indistinguishable, and everyone
Speaker 2: watching this lives in a bunch of different places. You know,
Speaker 2: we're traveling right now, baby on the computer sounds good?
Speaker 15: Great, man, Well if I can get a two for
Speaker 15: one here, always Wow, you believe in aliens, man, I don't.
Speaker 2: I you know alien? It doesn't bother me. You think
Speaker 2: you're looking an alien?
Speaker 15: Yeah, you got a big head.
Speaker 2: I do have a big head.
Speaker 15: But that's a compliment. That's a compliment.
Speaker 2: Well, that's up. It's I you look up.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: To be frank with you, at the end of the day,
Speaker 2: I feel like I will I'm the one that interprets
Speaker 2: whether or not I take it as a compliment. But
Speaker 2: I but I mean, you can tell me what you
Speaker 2: intended it as.
Speaker 7: Sure.
Speaker 2: Sure, and you intended it as a compliment. So I'll
Speaker 2: take it as one because I because because you've given
Speaker 2: me enough information for out the duration of our call
Speaker 2: that you know you're a kind hearted person. So I
Speaker 2: believe you.
Speaker 1: I believe I get that a lot.
Speaker 15: So let's get a three for one here. When people
Speaker 15: say you're a one hearted person, yeah, they say you're
Speaker 15: a kind hearted person. How do you keep on going
Speaker 15: through life being a kind hearted person. Whenever you don't
Speaker 15: get what you want.
Speaker 2: That's the that's why, you know, I try to avoid labels.
Speaker 2: You you know, it's good to be nice, right, but
Speaker 2: you never want to be.
Speaker 11: You know.
Speaker 2: I feel like it's you don't want to be known
Speaker 2: as a nice person because when you're known as a
Speaker 2: nice person, you people expect you to be a nice
Speaker 2: person all the time, right and then and and that's
Speaker 2: when you start getting fucked because no one's nice all
Speaker 2: the time.
Speaker 15: Mmm right right, all right, man? Well thank you, all right,
Speaker 15: Well I'll let somebody and need some help get on here. Thanks,
Speaker 15: free time.
Speaker 2: Absolutely what that was a beautiful nice little three for one.
Speaker 2: Thank you for for coming in. That was that was
Speaker 2: a steal.
Speaker 4: Thank you.
Speaker 15: I owe you too.
Speaker 2: I love you man, you take care all right, you too?

Speaker 7: Call from Aaron.
Speaker 8: To accept, press one to send of what.
Speaker 2: Aaron, Hello, a or with an E.
Speaker 16: It's like a a ron.
Speaker 2: Ron.
Speaker 16: Yeah, like that joke that I've been hearing for the
Speaker 16: past seven years.
Speaker 2: What the joke from the from the from the from
Speaker 2: the Sketch, Comedy Central show, from the comedy show. Yep,
Speaker 2: people say to you, Aaron, that is a joke at
Speaker 2: that I heard in comedy show on YouTube. I heard
Speaker 2: the joke on YouTube. It's comedy YouTube, and I would
Speaker 2: tell you joke a Ron, It's funny. I saw on
Speaker 2: the on YouTube on the computer.
Speaker 16: Yep, Yeah, almost exactly.
Speaker 2: Like that, do you think the computer should be illegal?
Speaker 16: That is an interesting question. I honestly think they should,
Speaker 16: because I honestly think it contributes more negative attributes to
Speaker 16: society than good ones.
Speaker 2: But I just went on that whole rant Aaron about
Speaker 2: how we're all connected and how everything is beautiful them
Speaker 2: we're we've democratized society into a bunch of mini calls
Speaker 2: as opposed to one giant cult.
Speaker 16: I mean, yes, But on the other hand, dude, I'm
Speaker 16: such a pessimist. I just I just can't see anything
Speaker 16: but the bad, and so I just, if given the choice,
Speaker 16: would make computers illegal, even though I am addicted to
Speaker 16: them as much as anyone else.
Speaker 1: So you know, what do you do on the computer?
Speaker 2: What do you use the computer for?
Speaker 7: Uh?
Speaker 16: Mainly right now is research. I'm in school and so
Speaker 16: I'm researching for my senior seasons.
Speaker 14: How are you gonna tell me that, well, okay, well
Speaker 14: I have a follow off to this back.
Speaker 2: How are you going to tell me that that you
Speaker 2: use the computer for bad things? And then you and
Speaker 2: then tell me that you use it for research.
Speaker 16: I never said I use it for bad things. I
Speaker 16: said a lot of people use it for bad things.
Speaker 16: Or maybe I did. I don't know.
Speaker 2: Really, I'll be I want you to be fully honest
Speaker 2: with me here. Oh are you? Are you undergrad? Uh?
Speaker 16: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Okay, because undergrad is because if you were like graduate,
Speaker 2: I'd be like, all right, this guy actually gives a
Speaker 2: fuck about school. A lot of people in undergrad they
Speaker 2: don't give a fuck about school. You're just there to
Speaker 2: be there. But do you actually can what percentage of
Speaker 2: what percentage of your computer use, be honest with me,
Speaker 2: is productive.
Speaker 16: I'd say about seventy five percent.
Speaker 1: Seventy five percent.
Speaker 16: Yeah, the other is twenty five percent.
Speaker 7: I just.
Speaker 16: I don't know. I spill through Reddit way too much.
Speaker 2: I I'm having such a hard time believing you because
Speaker 2: I really you don't like look at porn or go
Speaker 2: on Instagram or buy video games on Steam and not
Speaker 2: play them.
Speaker 16: I do some of those things, but when I'm trying
Speaker 16: to do my school work, I try and stay focused
Speaker 16: on school work. But I mean, like seventy five percent
Speaker 16: of the time, yeah, like I said, the other twenty
Speaker 16: five percent that's when I go and reddit.
Speaker 2: That's pretty good, though. I'm still I don't believe you,
Speaker 2: but I'm gonna go ahead and believe you, for the
Speaker 2: sake of our conversation. So you think it should be
Speaker 2: banned because other people use it unproductively.
Speaker 16: Yeah, Like, we've had so many opportunities to do so
Speaker 16: much good with the Internet as a collective, but more
Speaker 16: often than not, humans are selfish by nature, and we
Speaker 16: do selfish things that ultimately just lead to the downfall
Speaker 16: of our fellow humans. And so I just don't think
Speaker 16: that the Internet is worth it anymore.
Speaker 2: Well, if the Internet was banned and we couldn't talk
Speaker 2: right now, dude, I mean, well, you couldn't do research.
Speaker 2: You'd have to fucking check out library books.
Speaker 16: Honestly, at this point, I missed points to the library.
Speaker 16: You know, I had to move away from a university
Speaker 16: because of the whole fucking pandemic, and I'm just going
Speaker 16: to the library.
Speaker 2: You can still go to the library.
Speaker 16: Well, I can't go to the library at the university
Speaker 16: because I had to move away, and the libraries my
Speaker 16: hometown are only drives. So you can order the books
Speaker 16: online then and you go over there.
Speaker 7: And pick them up.
Speaker 2: Really, you can't go into the library, yep, Okay, But
Speaker 2: the Internet doesn't have to get banned for you to
Speaker 2: go to the library. You can still go to the library.
Speaker 2: I don't think that the Internet being banned would be productive.
Speaker 2: I'm having a hard time agreeing with you.
Speaker 16: I can respect that with all the bad things, and
Speaker 16: that does do a lot of good. I just think
Speaker 16: that the bad at wasted good.
Speaker 2: What is the bad that you see?
Speaker 16: Well, Google steels are data. Facebook steals are data. The
Speaker 16: Internet is used to un to coordinate hate crimes. I
Speaker 16: remember reading about one recently, but I can't remember which one.
Speaker 16: And I just go down this rabbit hole of all
Speaker 16: these atrocities on the Internet, and it gets really hard
Speaker 16: for me to be the goodnit Okay.
Speaker 2: Short, I mean, look, I but I mean that thing
Speaker 2: with like the Internet is used to coordinate hate crimes,
Speaker 2: but it's used way more to to coordinate. I mean,
Speaker 2: they're just coordinate fundraisers. It's used to coordinate. Like the
Speaker 2: percentage of good things the Internet is used to coordinate
Speaker 2: to hate crimes is I mean the ratio is is
Speaker 2: for sure in favor of of of the good stuff.
Speaker 4: M M.
Speaker 2: I I And look as far as Facebook have you know,
Speaker 2: having my data, you know they can do whatever they
Speaker 2: want with my dad. I don't care what you know.
Speaker 2: Websites Facebook and those I've been on. They can sell
Speaker 2: me ads. I'm never going to click on that. I
Speaker 2: don't click on banner ads. You're paying, you know, thousands
Speaker 2: of dollars to put banner ads in front of my face,
Speaker 2: then you're the dummy dude. But they can have it.
Speaker 2: I don't care face. Mark Zuckerberg can live in my
Speaker 2: basement and steer over my shoulder and I'll turn around
Speaker 2: and our faces will be like this close to each other,
Speaker 2: and there'll be a little moment attention, and then we'll start
Speaker 2: making out with each other and he'll put his hand
Speaker 2: down my pants and I'll be like, yes, this is
Speaker 2: all okay, and this was all able to happen because
Speaker 2: of the Internet, and he and I will fall in
Speaker 2: love and you know who, we'll have to think it's
Speaker 2: a computer.
Speaker 16: Well, man, if that's what you want, then you know,
Speaker 16: by all means. But like I said, give him the choice,
Speaker 16: I would just make it illegal.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 16: Thankfully I don't have that choice, because were to become
Speaker 16: a legal you know, obviously a lot of people will
Speaker 16: get sucked over.
Speaker 2: No, it would suck ass if the internet was legal.
Speaker 2: You know, look, you're you're oh, Look, I'm not gonna
Speaker 2: give you shade over here, but you seem like a
Speaker 2: glass half empty kind of guy.
Speaker 16: Yeah, that's that right.
Speaker 2: The internet's good, dude. Like, I mean, did you hear
Speaker 2: the call that we just had with that guy with Aaron? No,
Speaker 2: you're Aaron with the guy that we just.
Speaker 16: Had, Yeah, I did.
Speaker 2: That guy is gonna benefit from the Internet.
Speaker 16: Yeah, let's post. So I haven't bet on your discord,
Speaker 16: but from all the things in the chat, it seems
Speaker 16: like a pretty good place. And so that seems like
Speaker 16: one of the pockets is good on the Internet.
Speaker 2: No hate crimes here. What'd you say? Your name was Aaron. Look,

Speaker 2: And how has it been ever since? You know?
Speaker 8: It's been a wild ride?
Speaker 7: I would say, you think so.
Speaker 2: If you die, there's a real question. If you died today,
Speaker 2: if you fucking died tomorrow, would you be satisfied with
Speaker 2: the life that you lived, I think so yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: to be honest, Kim, I mean, run down what are
Speaker 2: the highlights?
Speaker 8: I mean, I've been traveling the world for the past
Speaker 8: five years. And just move back to the US and
Speaker 8: where you've been.
Speaker 2: Have you been to Chokyo in Cork, Ireland.
Speaker 8: I have into Tokyo Island. It was crazy, you know,
Speaker 8: lots of light. There was a ghet air floating everywhere
Speaker 8: I went.
Speaker 2: It was really disast insane. That sounds wild. Yeah, all right,
Speaker 2: I've been traveling everywhere.
Speaker 8: For the most part. Yeah, I was. I was living
Speaker 8: in Columbia since twenty seventeen and then that's where I
Speaker 8: moved back from.
Speaker 2: Now why what and now, okay, what were you doing
Speaker 2: before the world exploded upon itself because of a deadly flew?
Speaker 8: Well, I was just working from my computer, chilling, taking photos,
Speaker 8: just living my life, you know, enjoying my twenties.
Speaker 2: Really, I guess what you do on the computer?
Speaker 8: So I do mama, marketing consultant for cannabis dispensaries in Colorado.
Speaker 2: Well, and you just do that remotely while you go.
Speaker 8: Yeah, well, now I don't do it, but previously, yeah,
Speaker 8: I was doing it remotely.
Speaker 2: That's cool. You know, man, I've been thinking about this.
Speaker 2: I've been thinking, man, I could just I can't right now,
Speaker 2: but like I could just you know, put a gecko
Speaker 2: suit in a suitcase and have a little ring light
Speaker 2: and I could just do this stream at like eight
Speaker 2: o'clock in the morning in Thailand and it would be
Speaker 2: ten pm here and I could do the same exact
Speaker 2: thing that you're doing.
Speaker 8: For sure, I don't see why not. And you know,
Speaker 8: I would assume you're overhead costs are gonna be a
Speaker 8: lot less than Thailand. Yeah, two hundred dollars a month
Speaker 8: for a little apart a.
Speaker 2: Month for a little apartment is amazing.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And so I have a question for you, all right,
Speaker 2: I have an answer for I might have an answer
Speaker 2: for you. I can't promise anything, but hit me.
Speaker 8: What'd you eat for breakfast?
Speaker 2: You want to be you want to be extremely honest
Speaker 2: with you right now. You want to go there? You
Speaker 2: want to go to a place I didn't want to
Speaker 2: have to go, but you head that you brought me here. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I had a Hrshey bar for breakfast. I mean it
Speaker 2: was the laughing why are you laughing?
Speaker 8: I mean I would I would say it's not the
Speaker 8: most nutritional, but it's the most enjoyable, which is okay, it.
Speaker 2: Wasn't enjoyable, it was let me tell you something about
Speaker 2: my sugar addiction. Uh huh, No, part of it brings
Speaker 2: me a pleasure. Yeah, well, yeah, is enjoyable to me.
Speaker 2: You know, when you're a child, you look at candy
Speaker 2: as something that as you look at candy as a
Speaker 2: positive experience. When you're an adult, you know, you look,
Speaker 2: I mean, candy's becomes you know, something.
Speaker 8: You have to do, you know, yeah, I mean, but

Speaker 2: Gets me through? What'd you say? Your name was?
Speaker 8: I mean, Alex?
Speaker 2: It gets me through the day, Alex? Would you ever hear?
Speaker 8: I right? What I have for breakfast? I had some
Speaker 8: yogurt in an apple. That was about it for breakfast,
Speaker 8: in a little.
Speaker 1: Bit of water.
Speaker 2: No Hershey bar, though, some yogurt and some waffle. You
Speaker 2: get a waffle? No, not an apple, an apple, honey
Speaker 2: crisp and apple. That's like the opposite of a Hershey bar.
Speaker 8: But it had a lot of sugar in it. You know,
Speaker 8: there's that aspect. Don not refined sugars.
Speaker 2: But we're not having this battle right now. There's no
Speaker 2: sugar in an apple. An apple is a real food
Speaker 2: that human beat that real people eat.
Speaker 8: Okay, fair enough, And I would say, I don't know
Speaker 8: what a geckos eat flies, little insects and.
Speaker 2: Things, flies, some sometimes vermin m hm, small squirrels. If
Speaker 2: they find the one that's dead, crawl up in its
Speaker 2: body and suck upon its teats.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's a that's a big gecko.

Speaker 2: I've been all I've been all around Europe?
Speaker 8: Okay, have you been to Bucharest?
Speaker 2: Bok No, I haven't been to bulk Arest.
Speaker 8: I'd say that's a good chill place.
Speaker 2: Okay, I would go to bouch Arrest. Someone write that

Speaker 2: and that by the time they're old enough to travel,
Speaker 2: they'll be you know, you know, they'll be ancient. What
Speaker 2: do you say to them. What do you say to
Speaker 2: those people?
Speaker 8: Look with this color, with this whole pandemic thing. You know,
Speaker 8: there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to refine
Speaker 8: your daily processes. You know, whether it be waking up
Speaker 8: early in the morning, exercise, you know, whether your goal
Speaker 8: is to read one book a week or whatever it is.
Speaker 8: I mean, I would take this time to really focus
Speaker 8: on yourself personally, and that's what I've done, and just
Speaker 8: you know, take it day by day and write down
Speaker 8: these improvements.
Speaker 4: That you're making every day.

Speaker 2: Not a whole lot, Drew, Not a whole lot is up?
Speaker 1: True?
Speaker 6: This is one?
Speaker 2: Yeah, put your cat on the line. Let's hear what
Speaker 2: she has to say. Is your wait? Is your cat interesting?
Speaker 2: Can you tell me a little bit about your cat's
Speaker 2: life before before? Because I want to know, because I
Speaker 2: want to prepare some things to ask your cat. But
Speaker 2: I want a little bit of information about him or
Speaker 2: her beforehand, so that I can ask interesting questions that
Speaker 2: are relevant to their experience.
Speaker 1: Good call, Good call. You don't want to assume.
Speaker 6: Oh, his name is egg plant. Got him for a
Speaker 6: little over a year now, since I had gotten from
Speaker 6: the shelter. Yeah, and he likes to run around and
Speaker 6: scream whenever anyone else does laundry in the building.
Speaker 1: Now, did you name him after your most used emoji?
Speaker 6: Nah, that's probably my least used, honestly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I named my cat red Japanese nose mask.
Speaker 8: Face pengu Is that what that's called?
Speaker 2: I yeah, I feel like that's is that something? That's
Speaker 2: something you would know.
Speaker 6: Me that was some bird person thing.
Speaker 1: No, I think that's so true.
Speaker 2: What's your relationship like with your cat?
Speaker 6: It's a pretty good relationship. Excep running around streaming for
Speaker 6: no dang reason.
Speaker 1: You have a question? Wait, Lyle, can I get it?
Speaker 1: Because I think you think you comment on this. I
Speaker 1: have a lovely ex who had a cat that scratched
Speaker 1: its stomach too much and was that was a problem.
Speaker 1: And now my friend ties roommate's cat has been scratching
Speaker 1: their ears too much and bleeding. There seems to be
Speaker 1: a lot of anxiety in cats. We're treating that almost
Speaker 1: paralyzes paralyzed parallels, you know, how like people are better
Speaker 1: at diagnosing anxiety and like add and autism and kids.
Speaker 1: And now we're treating these cats being so anxious more
Speaker 1: and more. What's going on with that? And how can
Speaker 1: we make these cats less fucking anxious?
Speaker 4: I think it is like pet pose active.
Speaker 1: So you just want to medicate these cats and make
Speaker 1: them lose their driving creativity. Lyle, you're not you Lyle's
Speaker 1: anti pills mmmt.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think you want to stifle egg plant.
Speaker 2: I mean there's a certain point, right, I mean, I
Speaker 2: think you got to give eggplant the energy to kind
Speaker 2: of I mean when they're running around and they're screaming,
Speaker 2: even if it comes, you know, to your annoyance. I mean,
Speaker 2: you're witnessing firsthand the process of them coming up with
Speaker 2: all sorts of new ideas and really developing and fostering themselves.
Speaker 2: And I don't know if you I mean, look, do
Speaker 2: what you have to do to get through the day,
Speaker 2: But I don't think you want to take any actions
Speaker 2: that would you know, put a dent in their development process.
Speaker 2: You know, what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Well, usually how I solve the problem is I
Speaker 6: just crumple up a piece of paper and throw it
Speaker 6: at him.
Speaker 4: He loves that.
Speaker 6: It's completely nuts.
Speaker 1: That's fine, awesome.
Speaker 2: How does he how does he respond to that? Usually?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 6: He usually like chases it around for like three minutes
Speaker 6: and then it.
Speaker 2: How does he respond to the violence that you use?
Speaker 1: Violence? What was that?
Speaker 2: How does he respond to your projectiles? Is it fear?
Speaker 4: My response?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Usually the cat, the cat is being bombarded with your
Speaker 1: wood pulp residue? Really?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Does he know it's just for play or are you
Speaker 1: conditioning to be on defensive? This instinct about fighter flight
Speaker 1: all the time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's going to be an anxious cat when it
Speaker 2: grows up.
Speaker 6: I think he's always kind of on the fight or flight.
Speaker 6: He's a wild animal. He doesn't know when to turn
Speaker 6: off the fight or flight?
Speaker 1: Do you ever point a gun at him? I don't
Speaker 1: have a gun, so now good, But if you did,
Speaker 1: would you No?
Speaker 6: I would not shoot my cab.
Speaker 1: It's good. You had to think about it, though.
Speaker 4: Not very hard.
Speaker 2: Well you're doing well, I mean, well, okay, a piece
Speaker 2: of a crumpled a piece of paper is that might
Speaker 2: be the roughest projectile you have in your house.
Speaker 1: Right, so now we're talking stone iron age.
Speaker 2: That's okay. So I think that you should keep it
Speaker 2: like that because if you, I think you there's a possibility,
Speaker 2: right that you're defaulting always to the worst possible projectile
Speaker 2: you could use. So if you if you've brought a
Speaker 2: new one.
Speaker 1: In, Little pig Boy says eggplant should be on the line.
Speaker 1: I agree with him. I'm sorry. I know some people
Speaker 1: like Steel Fixer, like Max get the GTFO, but I
Speaker 1: think I agree with little pig Boy that maybe maybe
Speaker 1: Drew is just a stone wall he doesn't know and
Speaker 1: the cat's got to come online.
Speaker 6: I'll put let's talk egg plant, right all right, egg
Speaker 6: you want to say something in the gack.
Speaker 2: What I plan to say you? He's he's frightened into silence.
Speaker 2: He's too anxious to.
Speaker 1: Speak ste humans public speakings like one of the number
Speaker 1: one fears I wonder I want maybe that's probably at
Speaker 1: least four. But Eggplant, maybe it's crumpled up paper.
Speaker 2: You know, right below dogs dogs, oh in the lawn
Speaker 2: merry law. You've clearly frightened him into submission.
Speaker 1: Well, Athena says, maybe we should try me owing.
Speaker 4: Max.
Speaker 2: You want to give a you wanna you speak a
Speaker 2: little bit of cat, don't you.
Speaker 1: Well it's not a language as far as I know.
Speaker 1: I think it's a just tones. But it's kind of
Speaker 1: like yeah, well.
Speaker 2: Mhm mm hmm.
Speaker 1: You know French, it's pronounced m I A o us.
Speaker 6: It's seem interested.
Speaker 1: How about this runs all me ouh it?
Speaker 2: You know what it look if we just I you
Speaker 2: know what, Drey, I appreciate this, but I think if
Speaker 2: we don't, if your cat isn't sensing any you know,
Speaker 2: enough chemistry with us to even open up a conversation,
Speaker 2: I don't want to sit here and and you know,
Speaker 2: hammer over at this this brick wall. I don't want
Speaker 2: to keep going, you know. I don't think we're going
Speaker 2: to get anywhere with.
Speaker 1: This Olong Johnson Kermit the fraud.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he's just not talking to right now. I don't
Speaker 6: know what it is here.
Speaker 1: Put him in a comfy harness and take him on
Speaker 1: walks outside.
Speaker 6: Oh no, I don't have a harness. Get one for him.
Speaker 4: He lost that.
