But first, Sophie, 85 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: we like to ask our guess, what is something from 86 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: your search history that is revealing about who you are? Well? 87 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: I just was searching Alvin Ailey because I want to 88 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: see Alvanley Dance Company with my mom this weekend. So 89 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: I was just like reading up on it and looking 90 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 1: at cool pictures. Do yourself a favor. Next time they're 91 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: in town, Um, you should go see them. Alvin Eley 92 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: is like this black choreographer that started the Alvanly Dance 93 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: Company that's like primarily black, and they do incredible work. 94 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: They're like I see dance all the time and they're 95 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: like the best. And every time they come to town, 96 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, so y I go into 97 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: like crazy Google mode, So, um, what did you say 98 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: or rather the dancing. Yeah, he's no, he's not the 99 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: choreograph anymore, but they still do some of the pieces, 100 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: like they do revelations every time they come, which is 101 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: like really beautiful. Um, and favorite book of the Bible. 102 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I stand hard for revelations. And then 103 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: they did other stuff that's like that was like new 104 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: from the last time I saw them. It's just like pieces. 105 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: So this is regularly said the last time, so you 106 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: go every year. Oh nice, this is like now at 107 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: least five years ago, were you dancer? I did? Okay, okay, 108 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: that makes sense, not nearly, as I was very average 109 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: at it, Like what are we talking here? Like I 110 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: did ballet forever and I was like solidly average at it. 111 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: And then I was trying to figure out the other day. 112 00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: I was like, wow, was I so into like going 113 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: and doing something that I knew I was not good 114 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: at because I didn't do that with anything else. If 115 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: I was bad at something, I was like, funk this right? 116 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: But then I realized it was because I'm by and 117 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 1: that was the place where I saw all these other 118 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: girls and they leotards, and I was like, of course, 119 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: my ego that happened. I'm like, yeah, I will put 120 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: my ego side to see some titties. I will do that. 121 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: You know, I'm a very big person. You have that right, 122 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: my Oh that's right? Okay, yep, that phrase from somewhere. 123 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: It is huge, impressing, committed. What is something you think 124 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: is overrated? Coachella? M WHOA right, No one else has 125 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: ever said that. But the reason I brought that up 126 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: is because I would rather uplift something which I think 127 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: is better Couchella. To my friend Dave Rankin, who is 128 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: a comic who has been who's done a podcast Private 129 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: Parts and Down, Okay, he does this thing every year 130 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: where he'll turn on the live feed from Coachella and 131 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: he'll have like a different room of his house or 132 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: his apartment playing different uh stages. So then you just 133 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: like get high and drunk and hang out and eat 134 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: with your friends and dance in the living room, going 135 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: room to room. Got you, I thought you were Yeah, 136 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: for a second, I think you said Cowella and I 137 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: was like, but yeah, Colchella. I've done that a few times. Yeah, 138 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: and yeah, so fun. It's a It's actually I like 139 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: that he respects the different stages in his different rooms. Normally, 140 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 1: I'm just on the YouTube thing because it's always used 141 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: on YouTube. Yeah, yeah, that's what it is. I'm like, 142 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: they're on let's see what's up. Then I like watch 143 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: two seconds and I get all mad because I'm not there, 144 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: because I like, you know, when you see live shows, 145 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: sometimes bands will really do longer versions of songs and 146 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: that's like the cool part of like seeing a band live. 147 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 1: And that's like usually when my phone more kicks and 148 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, they're doing a version I'm not heard, Like, 149 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: have you heard the seventeen minute long version of Tripping 150 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: Billie's that Dave Matthews does? My mind? That's my Yeah, 151 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: that's just the Firedancer. There's one. There's an eight minute 152 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: drum solo and so much to say. Another day of 153 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 1: great Dave Matthews track in the Live at Red Rocks 154 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: one that's amazing.

And 332 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: I'm like off, I literally go fuck off and just 333 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,959 Speaker 1: hang up. But I'm sure like when you're dealing with 334 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 1: that a you're probably being paid shit, and then you're 335 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: dealing with not people as polite as Jack, being like, 336 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 1: I believe I'm on side of the list. Probably people 337 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: being like, don't call me, find you work on commission? 338 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: Yeah right, yeah, probably when you're not making any money 339 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 1: or not. Probably when you're not making money, you're like 340 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 1: so angry. And then Jack was maybe his last chance 341 00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 1: for it to make money that night. So it was like, 342 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: so in a way, we should we should put a 343 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: go fund me together for this man.

And 357 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: can you put me on your do not call list? 358 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 1: Or don't say can you put me on your do 359 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,679 Speaker 1: not call list? Or I don't want to get these calls, 360 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 1: which maybe I need to say those specific words please 361 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 1: put me on your do not call list. Those are 362 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: like the magic words that are supposed to legally like 363 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: get you blocked from their list. But I have a 364 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: feeling that they are willfully fucking with me because like 365 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 1: I've I've made my intent very clear, like I would 366 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: really appreciate it if you put me on the do 367 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: not call list, and they're just like getting more aggro. 368 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: They're like, don't ask us nicely. They start calling you 369 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 1: at three in the morning with super Jack, would you 370 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: wake up a little bach? Super producer Nick Stuff was 371 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:34,360 Speaker 1: saying that he had a telemarketing call that like halfway through, 372 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: the guys started like imitating his accent like started like 373 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: mocking him basically, so through the mic you did not 374 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: hear it. But super producer next said he was started 375 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 1: speaking Spanish to the person on the call. Uh, and 376 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: then the person started making fun of his Spanish, which, 377 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 1: by the way, I totally deserved. Yeah, Nick trying to 378 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: pull up with his Spanish skills. I mean, come on, 379 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: don't He's like, Yo, this is not what that call 380 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: is when Nick. When Nick speaks Spanish, he speaks in 381 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: the exact same voice as the guy from the Spanish 382 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 1: language tapes. There was this joke, man, this is a 383 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 1: joke for like three people who went to high school 384 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: with But there was this the Spanish language CD in 385 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: class used to skip. So it would be like shout 386 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 1: out to Danny and bend for the sounds like a remix. Man, 387 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 1: if you did not shout remix when that should happened, 388 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: they were not a teenager hit him with the horn, 389 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: real remix. Uh wow, double bomb dropped, committed to it. 390 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna take a quick break, we'll be 391 00:22:53,720 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: right back, and we're back, and we're gonna talk about 392 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: something called modern monetary theory right now, which I didn't 393 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: know about prior to today, and I think that is 394 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 1: an indicator of me not paying enough attention to economics. 395 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, so the idea m m T is sort 396 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: of this macro economic theory that that has proponents that 397 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: it's like a weird cross section. It's like AOC Bernie 398 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: and then a lot of like bankers on Wall Street 399 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 1: and like economic theorists, like really like advanced economic theorists 400 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: all stand for this theory. And the idea is basically, 401 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: the government can spend more than we think and that 402 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 1: death Like the idea that deficits lead to runaway inflation 403 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: is like it happens if you have an unhealthy economy. 404 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: But if every dollar you spend is going into making 405 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 1: your entry a better place to like work and produce wealth, thing, 406 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: you should spend that dollar. Basically, I think I'm getting 407 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 1: that right. Um So, basically, instead of there being like 408 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: a balanced ledger that we should all be aiming for 409 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 1: when the government is spending money on like government programs, 410 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: and one of the things that they advocate for is 411 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: full employment, Like everybody who is capable of employment is 412 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 1: like has a job essentially, and so the government should 413 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: invest until that happens. A lot of economic theorists like, 414 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: look at it, like, Okay, well we have to have 415 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 1: a balanced ledger, Like, like the government is a household, 416 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: and so the amount of tax dollars we take in 417 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: has to equal out to the amount of dollars that's 418 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: being spent by the government. And MMT advocates basically say, no, 419 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: it's actually the amount of money we spend just can't 420 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: lead to runaway inflation. So like just keep an eye 421 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: on inflation, and that's the only thing you need to Like, 422 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: the idea that there's like needs to be a balanced 423 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: ledger kind of fundamentally misunderstands what like how government works. Yeah, 424 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: because like the government is not a economic entity. Like 425 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: the government prints its own money. That's a fundamental difference. 426 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 1: They can print more money if they want to, And 427 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: the only thing that should stop them from printing more 428 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: money is if they are worried about inflation. But otherwise, 429 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 1: like they should just be creating programs and creating money 430 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: to stimulate growth. But then, so, at what point does 431 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: the deficit actually become a bad thing because we just 432 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: see growing and growing. So is this saying, look, don't 433 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 1: worry about what the bill looks like because it's being 434 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: spent correctly. Yeah. Basically, Ah, well, I wonder if right 435 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: now we're actually that deficit is actually being spent in 436 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: a way that's beneficial to the country. Right. The theorists 437 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 1: Stephanie Kelton said that it's not the deficits don't matter, 438 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 1: it's that they're not. Deficits are not a sign of 439 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:02,239 Speaker 1: excessive spending or a war runner of inflation, but they 440 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: can be too big. So it's it's just like basically 441 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: changing the yardstick that you use to judge, like you 442 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 1: you shouldn't once you're not like fully coming up in 443 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: the black on the like government ledger, you shouldn't start panicking. 444 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: It's more using inflation as the yardstick that you used 445 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: to measure whether your deficit is getting too big. I 446 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: should tell that to my credit card company. They point 447 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: to the last seven biggest American depressions or downturns going 448 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: back two years. We're all preceded by government surpluses. So 449 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: basically they're saying that if the government is running a surplus, 450 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 1: then you're kind of sucking with the economy because you're 451 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,959 Speaker 1: not spending enough and you need to actually like spend 452 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: to create a healthy society. He has Trump advocated for 453 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 1: this theory, yet he has not. I feel like because right, 454 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: this is sort of kind of the way we look 455 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: at it, or at least the like, the way the 456 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 1: government spends money is like, our every dollar we give 457 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: in taxes is the budget that the government has to 458 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: spend money, When really they're looking at it is like, okay, 459 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 1: what's the budget. This is what we're going to spend. 460 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: This is what we got in taxes. Here's the difference. 461 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 1: Keep it moving, right. And that may have been overly simplistic, 462 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: but I think that's the thing that stuck out to 463 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: me the most is this model that we or I 464 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,959 Speaker 1: was used to looking at it because I'm not an 465 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: economist or economist it's pronounced a great magazine, um, but 466 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: that was sort of the model. But this is a 467 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: this is that modern ship. Right Basically, as long as 468 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: there's you know, companies and people and actors within the 469 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: economy there to absorb the government expenditure and like spend 470 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: the money and use it and to keep it moving 471 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 1: rather moving over watering a plant whose cup runneth over, 472 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: then you get that's what you have to look out for. Yeah, 473 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: that's what I thought. I was just on the phone 474 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: with Paul Krugman this week, so we're talking. Uh well, 475 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: and that's what I told when I called Chase Bank. 476 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 1: I was like, look, bro, this this deficit I have 477 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 1: with y'all is not an indicator of the runaway spending actually, 478 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 1: and I think we need to change our yardstick right 479 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: for how we look at this. They still hit you 480 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 1: with those over draft fees though, huh yeah, but you know, look, 481 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: I told him this is all fake, you know what 482 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 1: I mean, It's all it's on the either. But it 483 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: is that like sometimes when you get like financial advice, 484 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: even on like a personal level, you know, you you 485 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: like start thinking of that as an absolute until it 486 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: doesn't even serve you anymore. Like in the beginning, people 487 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: who are like when you're starting out there like don't 488 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: have you know, don't have a debit card, you know, 489 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: when you're really young, don't really do the credit card 490 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: thing because you're going to overdraft blah blah blah. But 491 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: then like as you get older, you need to build 492 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: credit and we do need to have credit cards, and 493 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: you just spend and pay them off and it actually 494 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: makes more sense to put everything on a credit card. 495 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: Because you get points back and you start like doing 496 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: all that ship. But like it's the same thing about 497 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: like moving the yardstick. It's like the rules are different 498 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: once you get to a different stage. And yeah, and 499 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: you just can't just don't spend what you don't have, right, 500 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: And that's when it gets out of control, because like, yeah, 501 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: like I would. It took me so long to actually 502 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: trust myself with a credit card because I could not. 503 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: I was just terrible with my finances. Uh. And luckily 504 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: I just stuck to that because my desk here the 505 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: ship out of me and he was like, you will 506 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: be you will be forever fucked if you just like 507 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: have a credit card run away from you, especially when 508 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: I was like twenty two and spending it on fucking 509 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: weed and like, yeah, and when you signed up for 510 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: the credit cards because you wanted to get that like 511 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: weed joked T shirt, right, that's what happened to me. 512 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: I gotta you promised coffee mug with this. I was like, 513 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: wait a minute, a Converse all Star logo, but it's 514 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: Converse all high Star. It didn't even make sense. I 515 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, get whatever you want, whatever you need, 516 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: I'll sign my soul away for that shirt like a shoe. 517 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: All right, her Men Kane is back in the pocket. Yeah, damn, 518 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: I mean he's nimble. Uh, the confidence is just emanating 519 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: off of me. Trump picked. I'm sorry you put it 520 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: in miles terms that overflow with your cup, with your cup. 521 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: There you go. So the president has picked Herman Kane 522 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: to run the FED. Yeah, the tax plan guy and 523 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: godfather pizza lord. Now remind everybody what is the plan. 524 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: He was trying to Basically, his whole thing was like 525 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm simplifying the whole tax code and saying that it 526 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: would just be a mix of flat taxes. So there'll 527 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: be a nine percent sales tax, national sales tax, nine 528 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: percent corporate income tax Oh wow cool nine percent uh, 529 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: and nine percent individual income tax to be like yeah, 530 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: and like we'll just make it real simple and we 531 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: can keep it moving. But everyone's like, oh, that disproportionately 532 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,719 Speaker 1: hurts like lower income people by being like, so why 533 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: should a person and a corporation be taxed the same amount? 534 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I know, we keep trying to sell this 535 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: whole keep. They keep trying to sell the whole corporation 536 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: as a person thing, and it's just like yeah, well, 537 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 1: it's gotten us absolutely nowhere. But anyway, so yeah, he's 538 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: the he's the man with like those really cool, you know, 539 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: futuristic ideas that basically only benefit the wealthy. Um. So 540 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: you know, the thing that's a little bit freaky is 541 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: because you know, unlike the e p A, the FED. 542 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: Like I mean not to say that the EP isn't 543 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: doing good work, but like the FED is really one 544 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: of those institutions that like has to remain independent because 545 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: it's like the adult in the room being like, Hi, 546 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: we're the central bank, and like we can't just funk around, 547 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: like we have to actually make sure we're doing what's 548 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 1: right for the economy now, which is good because people 549 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: on Wall Street or growing about something. And you know, 550 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 1: the thing is, the two biggest functions with the FED 551 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 1: are supervision and policy. So on one hand, they oversee 552 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 1: like financial firms like you know, holding companies and chartered 553 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: banks within the system. Um uh. They also uh like 554 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: they're just also just the general supervisor of all of 555 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: these banking institutions, so they have to make sure there's 556 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: no nothing, no bullshit happening, no factory uh, just you 557 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 1: know supervisor. Great policy. Also, they also have to set 558 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: monetary policy with things that you know, they have two 559 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 1: main objectives, which are price stability and full employment, and 560 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: like those are like their north star that they're trying 561 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: to follow. Um. So you know, and if we've also 562 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: saw like with bailouts and things, they also can do 563 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,479 Speaker 1: emergency lending and things like that. So having people who 564 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: like are not in touch with, like, you know, the 565 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: nuances of the economy or like aren't even economists in 566 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: those positions is a fucking really bad thing. But a 567 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: guy who's not a politician as president. So it's like, yeah, 568 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: well but here's the thing. I mean, there's no like 569 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: it's always been the same sort of type type of 570 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: you know, just wonky economy nerds who like work at 571 00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: the Fed and like they get it. And like the 572 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 1: last person that he Trump picked or nominated was this 573 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: guy Stephen Moore, who was like a total He was like, 574 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: I'm not really an economist. Stephen like admitted that, uh, 575 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 1: and you know he was like held in contempt of core. 576 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 1: Heeled his like ex wife like over three hundred thousand 577 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: and like alimony and child support.

Either way, 620 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 1: We're not actually having someone you know, because when you 621 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 1: run the Federal Reserve and like sending interest rates and 622 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: stuff like that, you have to kind of be like 623 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: really serious about everything, and having like Herman Kine or 624 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 1: this other dude out there is just not a good look. 625 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 1: And when you see how the market responds just to 626 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: comments from Trump, like having that from someone who runs 627 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 1: the actual central bank could be even worse. But this 628 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: is also comes at a time when you have people 629 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,839 Speaker 1: like Jamie Diamond, who's like the head of JP Morgan 630 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 1: Chase being like, yeah, student dead is hurting the economy. 631 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 1: So it's like, so you want someone who's understanding we 632 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,360 Speaker 1: have these other things going on, these other factors in 633 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: the economy that have to be considered rather than Godfather pizza. Right. Yeah, 634 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: I feel like we need a second so let's hear 635 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: more about this pizza pepperoni theory. I feel like we 636 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: need things written down. And I also want somebody to 637 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: start studying like what jobs lead like what experience and 638 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,320 Speaker 1: what jobs lead to being good in other jobs. I 639 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 1: feel like that's not studied enough, and so we give 640 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 1: which skills are Yeah, Like I've always thought it was 641 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 1: weird that the fact that like Hunky a list actors 642 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: turned out to be decent directors, is weird, rather than 643 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: like really good actors like and talking Yeah, I'm like, 644 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 1: who are you talking about? Like Ben Affleck, Robert Redford. 645 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: So it's like something East would. It's like it's like 646 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: people who like just know how to look good on 647 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 1: camera but aren't necessarily like, you know, actors, actors, they 648 00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 1: kind of so like that. That's just something I've always 649 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 1: like an observation I made. But I'm sure somebody has 650 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 1: like studied this for the head of the FED or 651 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 1: something like that and been like, this specific job leads 652 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 1: very well into being Yeah, like people who were point 653 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 1: guards tend to be good basketball coaches like things like that. 654 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,879 Speaker 1: Like I feel like it's not and only a few, 655 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 1: like former soccer players actually end up being good managers. 656 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 1: It's weird, like not many players actually fall into the 657 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: role of manager that won't soccer And it's like usually 658 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 1: like the nerds on the sideline who have just been 659 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: like just like, oh, let me get in there and 660 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 1: do what I got to do with a coach. Uh. Well, 661 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: you know, I think that that FED study did show 662 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: that if you are involved with a successful franchise of 663 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: pizza locations that, Yeah, that makes you the best for leading. 664 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 1: But like I do, I do wonder what he was 665 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 1: doing on a day to day basis, like as the 666 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,279 Speaker 1: head of the Kansas City, Like it's just managing a 667 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: business because that's what he was in. Like, that's all 668 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: he was doing when he was doing the pizza thing. 669 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: Like he can run businesses, but that's different. Things are 670 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: giving him enough credit. Okay, it could be a Papa 671 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: John Yeah, oh ship, has anybody consulted him? Yeah? But 672 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,919 Speaker 1: what he's thinking about the time, Jesus, Well, let's say 673 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: a quick goodbye America's papa.

She was actually Christen. I'm actually 688 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 1: um well. So on the weekend, she had a meeting 689 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 1: with Trump that she thought was going to clear the 690 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: air or like they were going to find a way forward, 691 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 1: because they have just been butting heads. Apparently, because despite 692 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 1: all the terrible ship she does, she would tell the 693 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: president like just basic stuff like oh yeah, what you're 694 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 1: asking is illegal. And then that just came to a 695 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,439 Speaker 1: head in like thirty minutes into this interview. He's like, yeah, 696 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 1: I need you, I need you out of here. So 697 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 1: I need that resignation. And so it came out. I 698 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,800 Speaker 1: was like, okay, so I'm resigning. And the look on 699 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,360 Speaker 1: her face she looked like she was at peace. She 700 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, and I gotta think the president, but 701 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 1: Wednesday will be my last day. And I was like, 702 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 1: this is the best decision I've ever made. And you know, 703 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 1: like when you sort of like see what their relationship was. 704 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: It just seemed like, what is the freakiest ship is 705 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 1: that Apparently she just wasn't fucking cruel enough for Trump 706 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 1: because he would call her, Uh this is like in 707 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 1: the New York Times, I think this is This is 708 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 1: a quote from that the President berated miss Nielsen, regularly 709 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,840 Speaker 1: calling her at home early in the morning to demand 710 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,320 Speaker 1: that she take action to stop migrants from entering the country, 711 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: including doing things that were clearly illegal, like blocking all 712 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: migrants from seeking asylum. She repeatedly noted that limitations imposed 713 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:23,760 Speaker 1: on her department by federal laws, court settlements, and international obligations. 714 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:30,240 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, were oblig Uh. So now you know, Stephen Miller, 715 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna get his shot to just stack 716 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 1: this thing with like xenophoe mutant, just supervillains to run DHS, 717 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 1: because it looks like even also the head of the 718 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 1: Secret Service also got the booty, and it's like and 719 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 1: people are trying to suspect, oh, you're really just taking 720 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: everybody out of DHS who's actually saying things like oh yeah, 721 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 1: that's illegal, and just trying to replace it with just 722 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,320 Speaker 1: the grossest type of sycophant. Yes, people who are like, 723 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: whatever you want, whatever you want, it doesn't matter how 724 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 1: vile it is. Do people think that the Secret Service 725 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 1: director getting booted has something to do with the mar 726 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:08,919 Speaker 1: Lago like security concerns? I mean, that was at least 727 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: my first thought. But Miles, you're saying that that, I mean, 728 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: it depends on you know. It's then the reporting a 729 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: source at the Secret Service saying it wasn't connected. Yeah, right, Uh, 730 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,760 Speaker 1: that it wasn't having to do with the moral Lago incident. 731 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 1: But as they describe it, a near systematic purge happening 732 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 1: at what is the second largest national security agency. UM 733 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 1: And because I think Stephen Miller is now leading border policies, 734 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 1: it's like he has to get people in DHS to 735 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 1: act out his vile plan, whatever that's going to be. 736 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,439 Speaker 1: And it can't just be people who like know the law, 737 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: because what they're trying to do is illegal. But anyway, 738 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 1: worry not for reich Stock, Barbie, because your legacy will 739 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: remain because there are tens of thousands of children who 740 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: are still separated from their families, and based on like 741 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 1: an optimistic estimate, it would probably take around two years 742 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,439 Speaker 1: to fully identify and reunify. A lot of these kids 743 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: like to get everybody off. So I mean, honestly, you know, 744 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: I joked that like she was at peace, but I 745 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,600 Speaker 1: hope she never fucking finds any kind of peace, you know. 746 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 1: I hope you're treated like the fucking pariah that you are, 747 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,359 Speaker 1: you know, because this is like you could have fucking 748 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 1: resigned a long time ago, but guess what, you're the 749 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,399 Speaker 1: face of this policy, and you can you can run 750 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: away now, but the damage has been done. And just 751 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 1: just to underline another thing, when you think about all 752 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:28,320 Speaker 1: the cabinet positions that are vacant right now, there's currently 753 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: just an acting DHS Secretary and acting Defense Secretary and 754 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 1: acting Interior Secretary and acting White House Chief of Staff 755 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: and acting United Nations Ambassador and an acting Food and 756 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: Drug Administration commissioner, and these are he's still yet to 757 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,440 Speaker 1: actually put those people in there, Like he hasn't even 758 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 1: done it yet. It's not like people there are certain 759 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,760 Speaker 1: positions that haven't been filled since he came into office, 760 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 1: which is wild. And they say even with DHS or 761 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 1: d O D, it's been two months where that position 762 00:42:59,920 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 1: is been vacant and it hasn't been like that, Like 763 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 1: the last time there was a vacancy that long was 764 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: like seventy years ago. Yeah, no adults. And then also 765 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 1: when you look at DHS, there's no secretaries, said, there's 766 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 1: no deputy secretary, there's no Secret Service chief, there's no 767 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 1: head of FEMA, there's no head of ICE, there's no 768 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,399 Speaker 1: head of Science and Technology. There's just like just it's 769 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 1: a full on ghost town. Yeah. I guess the only 770 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,360 Speaker 1: thing we can rely on or the courts to actually 771 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: interpret the laws and you know, actually make decisions. Yeah, 772 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:34,839 Speaker 1: because I know they've been packed. That is the one 773 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 1: thing he's gotten busy doing. He and the Republicans have 774 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 1: gotten busy doing, is getting super uber conservative judges confirmed. Yeah, 775 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 1: I guess they did rule that just keeping everybody in 776 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 1: Mexico was not legal. No. Well, because he's just trying 777 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:57,320 Speaker 1: to basically end the asylum program like by just you know, 778 00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: pulling up the ladder, and because he quite really over 779 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:03,920 Speaker 1: the weekend was like sorry, no room, there's no more room. Yeah, right, 780 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be 781 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 1: right back, and we're back. And we've talked before on 782 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 1: the Daily z Eyegeist about the Dunning Krueger effect. Uh, 783 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 1: it's the Daily z eyegeist. The Dailies Eye Guist is 784 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:33,439 Speaker 1: a podcast that you and I host. Oh shit, that's yeah, yeah, 785 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 1: yeah yeah, that's where all those pants on people. Yeah, 786 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,080 Speaker 1: you're speaking into a microphone right now. People can see you. 787 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,920 Speaker 1: They can't not when I have these glasses. Sophia, we 788 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 1: have to explain something about podcasts. Yeah, you host a podcast. 789 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,600 Speaker 1: I don't know what a podcast is other than the 790 00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 1: one that you host. I don't know about it anyways. 791 00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 1: Dunning Kruger effect is when basically the people who are 792 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 1: not good at something they don't know how much they 793 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 1: don't know, and so they think they're better at it 794 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 1: than they actually are. So SoundCloud rappers and open My 795 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 1: comedians and people who are good at something are fully 796 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 1: aware of what they don't know, and so they're a 797 00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: little bit at least they're harder on themselves when it 798 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:27,800 Speaker 1: comes to comparing themselves with the average syndrome. So I 799 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 1: think we've tended to talk about it when it comes 800 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 1: to intelligence, Like, you know, people I don't know for 801 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: some reason.

Hey man, that means a lot 813 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,320 Speaker 1: to me. But anyways, just I think we tended to 814 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 1: cover it from the standpoint of like dumb people thinking 815 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 1: they're smart. And there's there's how Crash won that Academy Awards, 816 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 1: Like it's like a dumb movie for dumb people who 817 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 1: think they're smart. It's a dumb person's idea of a 818 00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 1: smart movie. Yeah, and then they congratulate themselves on it. 819 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 1: They're like, we really got it, would you like it to? 820 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 1: Like I get, and like what's to get? It's terrible 821 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,759 Speaker 1: the way Matt Dilan was like that white savior to 822 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: that color. I mean, what about Sandra Bullock and her 823 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,279 Speaker 1: best friend and housekeeper. Everything about that movie is so 824 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:59,319 Speaker 1: crdin I could just die. But so there's a kind 825 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 1: of been some nuanced studies that look at the things 826 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 1: that people tend to be over confident about and under 827 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:13,000 Speaker 1: confident about. Okay, kind of fucked with me, the things 828 00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:17,399 Speaker 1: that we tend to be over confident about having interesting conversations. 829 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:19,759 Speaker 1: We think we're more interesting in conversation than we are. 830 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 1: I mean would have thought as we've talked in to 831 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 1: these microphonests. We think we're better at getting an animal 832 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 1: to like us. Okay, your dog Ace was just in 833 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 1: my lap again, rejected. He loves me. No, okay, because 834 00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 1: that's what I've noticed. My dog like, we'll go up 835 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 1: and start looking people when they have lotion on. We're 836 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:52,560 Speaker 1: just like, oh, he loves you. Favor just my energy, 837 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 1: Like I just vibe really well. I don't know. I 838 00:47:54,800 --> 00:48:00,800 Speaker 1: am avoiding falling for a fraud makes sense? Oh, very gullible, 839 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:04,719 Speaker 1: are you? My husband is like stop almost writing checks 840 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 1: to people who come soliciting at the door. I'm like, 841 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:08,879 Speaker 1: I don't know, they're in a program. He's like, they're 842 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:15,319 Speaker 1: not go but it's like, stop it No, but it's 843 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 1: first of it's kind on the market. You don't understand. 844 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 1: It's Trader Joe's people selling me a sob story. I 845 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 1: want to support this little league team. He's like, there 846 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 1: is not a little league team. This person is seventeen 847 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,239 Speaker 1: winning a game of trivia. This is that's me. Like 848 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 1: all of these so far, I have been like, but 849 00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:38,360 Speaker 1: this one doesn't apply to me because I'm super aware 850 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:41,279 Speaker 1: of how bad I am at all these and maybe not, 851 00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 1: maybe I'm worse than night kissing, kissing, driving, using a computer, 852 00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 1: being a reliable friend, and controlling your emotions when it's 853 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,320 Speaker 1: useful to do so. Okay, way to sub tweet me? 854 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:56,919 Speaker 1: Which one are you? What are you over confident about? 855 00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: You probably being a rival friend? I mean, like, you know, 856 00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:01,360 Speaker 1: I think you all are like. I think I'm a 857 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 1: pretty good friend, and I bet you a lot of 858 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 1: people are like, she is a good friend. But I 859 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:05,920 Speaker 1: think I also probably funk up more often than I 860 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 1: register because I just remember about what a good friend 861 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 1: of self preservation, right, Because when you funk up in 862 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:13,360 Speaker 1: terms of being a friend, it's usually because you're not 863 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 1: even like thinking about the things. And so like a 864 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 1: lot of these come down to uh like availability bias, 865 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 1: I think is what they call it. Daniel Kaneman's book 866 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:26,600 Speaker 1: Thinking Fast and Slow, where they talk about like how 867 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 1: we get things wrong because we overestimate the thing that 868 00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:33,439 Speaker 1: is immediately available to us. So like when it comes 869 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 1: to winning a game of trivia, it's like you just 870 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 1: think of all the trivia you know, and you're like, oh, 871 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna fucking crush this. You can't. You can't think 872 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,759 Speaker 1: of the trivia you don't know, so you're not gonna 873 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,919 Speaker 1: be like good at thinking of all the answers you're 874 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 1: going to get wrong. Um, and like with being a 875 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 1: reliable friend, the thing that we're going to remember is 876 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,400 Speaker 1: like that time we went out of our way when 877 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:57,320 Speaker 1: we were the hero of our own narrative and their narrative, 878 00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,560 Speaker 1: and less the time when you just I didn't really 879 00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 1: think about it, but you kind of sucked over here. Yeah. 880 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,840 Speaker 1: So now here's the stuff that people tend to be 881 00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 1: under confident about, which is some of these are, uh, 882 00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:13,720 Speaker 1: don't make you feel as good as you might have hoped. 883 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:16,359 Speaker 1: So recovering from the death of a loved one where 884 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 1: apparently like we think it's going to hurt us more 885 00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:21,840 Speaker 1: than we're just like, just move the funk on. I 886 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:23,560 Speaker 1: don't I don't know if that's what they're saying to 887 00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:30,360 Speaker 1: the Jack O'Briens school of grieving, but but that you 888 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 1: can make something bad sound sound bad. What do you 889 00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:36,879 Speaker 1: how do you flex the other way? Like, Yo, I'm 890 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 1: sick at getting over a loved one's death. But yeah, 891 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,720 Speaker 1: I don't know. Again, these are these are all ones 892 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:48,640 Speaker 1: that I'm like, no, but I would be terrible at that. 893 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,839 Speaker 1: So it's it just proves like that these are things 894 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:55,239 Speaker 1: I'm probably wrong about in the same way as I'm 895 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 1: wrong about the things that we're sick at getting over 896 00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 1: the death of a loved one. I think that i'd 897 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:08,680 Speaker 1: be really bad. Challenge accept Jack's wife worse than your 898 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 1: back seat. Oh god, I'm so sorry. She literally listens 899 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:18,439 Speaker 1: to this podcast in her car, so, uh, don't turn 900 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 1: around because you're gonna see me behind. Uh. We think 901 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 1: that we're going to be worse than most at riding 902 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:31,720 Speaker 1: a unicycle, which is a weird fact. How many people 903 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:37,839 Speaker 1: did they test who have then written a unicycle? Yeah, 904 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:42,759 Speaker 1: I don't know. Okay, we think we're there's a lot 905 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:46,040 Speaker 1: of weird ones on here. We think we're worse than 906 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 1: we are predicting which sports team will win, which it 907 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:54,239 Speaker 1: seems like there's a whole gambling industry otherwise. But it 908 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:58,560 Speaker 1: was that easy. Yeah, playing soccer is an interesting one? 909 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: Is that one? What are they asking people? This is 910 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 1: so weird. It is so weird painting a portrait. But like, 911 00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:10,719 Speaker 1: by with the specificity, it seems like it indicates and 912 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 1: maybe this is their whole editorial strategy. But by making 913 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 1: it specific, you're like, huh, maybe maybe they did like 914 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 1: really specific studies. Maybe they made everybody do each one 915 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,000 Speaker 1: of the things and then they killed a loved one, 916 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:27,879 Speaker 1: that's right, Or did they just list things right? Well, 917 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 1: like like the people wrote these in or something like 918 00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:32,760 Speaker 1: that seems like an American be like, dude, I'm probably 919 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 1: not good at like soccer, right, Yeah, no, for sure 920 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:38,880 Speaker 1: that that probably is because like you'd have an ego, 921 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 1: right if you were like trying to be like things 922 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:43,279 Speaker 1: I can feel good about saying I'm not good at 923 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 1: It's like I don't know if i'd be good at 924 00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:46,799 Speaker 1: like getting over someone's death. I don't know if i'd 925 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:48,719 Speaker 1: be good at driving a race car. Of course, I'm 926 00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:50,320 Speaker 1: just a regular person. I don't know if i'd be 927 00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:52,440 Speaker 1: good at painting a portrait and another one making a 928 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 1: billion dollars, Yeah, that one makes. How do they figure 929 00:52:56,040 --> 00:53:00,160 Speaker 1: out kissing? They ask everybody you kiss Not like there 930 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 1: is a study that's like how you rate yourself as 931 00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:04,759 Speaker 1: a kisser, and then how people who have kissed you 932 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:07,240 Speaker 1: rate you as a kisser. But how do they find 933 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: everybody you've kissed? Well? Most of so most of these 934 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 1: sorts of studies that are like self reported probably full 935 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,480 Speaker 1: of ship studies are like done on kids in college 936 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:22,400 Speaker 1: basically because that's who's available to academics. So the kissing 937 00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:26,280 Speaker 1: one probably would be easier than getting over the loved 938 00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:28,319 Speaker 1: one or the death of a loved one. I don't 939 00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:33,720 Speaker 1: I don't know how you study that. Yeah, getting real weird. 940 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:37,879 Speaker 1: But we're bad at playing soccer painting a portrait though, 941 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,800 Speaker 1: guys go out and try it. Apparently you will be 942 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 1: better at that than you think.
