Let them do it. 15 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: Because they are a DVD system in the back.

You know what's weird about this is 18 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 1: everybody listening right now is probably thinking what is this 19 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: episode gonna be about? I mean, if they didn't read 20 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 1: the title for the show, they're thinking, what are they 21 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: going to talk about? DVDs? Is this a car conspiracy? 22 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 1: Is this It might be, because here's the thing, ladies 23 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: and gentlemen, we are doing a very special episode, something 24 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: a little bit different. This is not about just one topic. 25 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: This is about multiple things, and we're maybe going to 26 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: be surprised ourselves in the course of this episode. And 27 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: as every fan of UFO Disclosure has always wanted to 28 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: hear someone say, we are not alone today, we are 29 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: joined by let's what what should we call him?

Yes, 32 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: he he uses his voice very much like an instrument 33 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: that you would find in an orchestra. Although I'm not 34 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 1: a singer. Please let's not get into that again. You know, 35 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 1: we can have we can play a guessing game, but 36 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: people have probably already read the titles already. That's just 37 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: what we do. That's what we do. We're tap dancers. 38 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: But who do who? Do? We have, ladies and gentlemen 39 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: on the show, sir, Thank you so much.

That's always cool. You've reached out 43 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: to us and were like let's hang and we're like, yes, 44 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: it is seriously the only podcast I can stand to 45 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: listen to regularly. He loved We're finally still Yeah, can 46 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: you believe it? Yeah? I'm your guy. Yeah. So, like 47 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: he was with some background for people who are thinking 48 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: this voice is so familiar, I kind of no that 49 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: voice if they watch Archer television show now on f 50 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: x X. We used to be on Straight Up f 51 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: x uhiy Dr Kreeger. Uh, you know what, I don't 52 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: know FX Extra. I don't know what. I don't know 53 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,839 Speaker 1: here a little like yeah, I don't know, I don't 54 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: think so it's always sunny, sexy, sexy show. Well, you 55 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: know they have their moments. Well, I do know that 56 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: during the days of bootlegging and cornmash distilleries, the x 57 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: IS would show us how many times something had been 58 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: processed or distinct right, so double maybe it's just more 59 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: and more potent. That very well could be, although I 60 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: don't know that the exacts over at x X at 61 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: f x X look that deeply into the bootlegger history 62 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 1: of our nation. When thinking of a good title for 63 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: their extra, where they were going to chuck the stuff. 64 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,119 Speaker 1: They didn't really want to give a lot of commercial 65 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: dollars to That's not really true, true, I don't know 66 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: how it works and TV, I really don't. I'm happy 67 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: to be on it, I'm yeah, I am happy to 68 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: imagine a world where studio exacts say we're going to 69 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: base our decisions on a nineteen twenties era bootlegging in history. 70 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: We were talking earlier. You actually listened to the to 71 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: this show. Yeah, I listened to it all the time. 72 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: And you you caught the last episode moving to Mars. 73 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: One loved it. It's insane. We'll never get there. Humanity 74 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: will never make it that far off this planet? Are 75 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: you kidding me? We'll destroy ourselves first. And you brought 76 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: up a really great point. You said, why should we 77 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: why should we move to Mars? Why wouldn't we go 78 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: to the moon. It's the three days away by capsule? 79 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: You know, we can build an elevator. They're kind of uh, 80 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: you know, why would we go to six months away 81 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: on a planet full of zero resources except maybe some 82 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: ice up top? Yeah? So true. And we've already been 83 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: to the moon, right, yeah, several times. Hence, as we're 84 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: going back night Moon. The VP's in charge of space. 85 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: Now he's in charge of I want to be the 86 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: mayor of the King of Space. Um, and buzz Aldron 87 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: doesn't seem too pleased about it. You see that that 88 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: that thing where he was making some faces. Yeah, well, 89 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: buzz Aldron's at that point where he can just go 90 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: anywhere and say whatever he wants, because you know he's 91 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: been to the Moon, right, what are you gonna what 92 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: are you gonna say? I know it doesn't make him 93 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: an automatic authority on everything, but if I were somewhere 94 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: and buzz Aldron came in and said, um, it doesn't matter, 95 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: it could be a negligible thing. If he came in 96 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: and was like, I think that you're wrong and tigers 97 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: aren't the coolest animals and EMUs are better, and I 98 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: was like, well that's your opinion, and he said I 99 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: went to the Moon, I would be like, okay, Yeah. 100 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: I thought he stood on the Moon and looked back 101 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: down on the Earth because he moves way cooler. I 102 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: thought the moon landing was shot by Stanley Kubrick on 103 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: a sound stage. Am I face with me had to 104 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: really get the Russians and the space race apparently we all, yeah, 105 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: we could do an episode on the Stanley Cooper thing 106 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,799 Speaker 1: is surprising, but yeah, it is true that you can look. 107 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: You can, if you grab a nice enough telescope, you 108 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: can look on the Moon and see like evidence of 109 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: stuff we've left there. Why don't we just go back 110 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: up there and keep littering it and build some stuff 111 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: hotel and clean it up a little bit too, because 112 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: you know, no littering, right, Yeah, no, please, Well, we've 113 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: already too late. Somewhere there's a native Moon person crying 114 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 1: a single tier on a Moon TV commercial. That's the 115 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 1: nineteen seventies joke. I just can't wait for Moon tourism 116 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 1: and will really mess up the joint. Yeah, I mean well, 117 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: and you guys are catching some hell based on that episode, 118 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: are you not. We actually really, really very intelligently worded 119 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: takedown of the episode from a listener named uh, nobody 120 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: use the last names. It's an awesome one. Washing Felder, Yes, 121 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: Mr Washingfelder, and he says he really interested in to 122 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 1: the show, but the recent episode about Martian colonies was 123 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: so cringe worthy I had to force myself to listen 124 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: to the whole thing. And we don't want you guys 125 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: have to force yourself to do anything we want you 126 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: to do it. You know, no dress when listening to show. 127 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: The biggest problem is that your guest, while I am 128 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: sure he's knowledgeable about many various things, so completely ignorant 129 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: of economics. Unfortunately, his ignorance taints the whole episode and 130 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,559 Speaker 1: leads him down the path of envisioning a top down, 131 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: status planned totalitarian surveillance state. Now I have to say 132 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: this is reminiscent of conversations we had before doing the interview. 133 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: Um and you know, communism came up a couple of 134 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: times in the interview. I think the thing that this 135 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: listener maybe is is not appreciating is that this was 136 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: in fact a thought experiments. You know, it was all 137 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: very like hypothetical and an interesting way of like how 138 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: would we restart from scrap and you use the word technocracy, 139 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: technocracy the idea of putting all your faith into this 140 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: ultimately man made thing that kind of goes on its own, 141 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: but we programmed it did not not. So you know, 142 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: it's like he seems to really believe that if we 143 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: let a I run the show, there will be no inequality. Well, 144 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: that's the problem. We outside of science fiction, we have 145 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: literally no real world proof or idea or precedent for 146 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: what would happen. We have we have what auties that 147 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: can parallel park. Google has a car that manages the 148 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: stay out of accidents pretty well, and a lot of 149 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: people believe autonomous vehicles are going to be the wave 150 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: of the future. But that's not the same thing as 151 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: saying an artificial intelligence should run a society that is 152 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: already eliminating any margin of error. Have you not seen 153 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: Space Odyssey? I mean, you know, machines, when you give 154 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: them too much power, they turn on you and they 155 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: sing creepy song in monotone voices, and they won't open 156 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 1: the airlock. That's what happens. That's where we're headed. Well, 157 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: eventually they see humans as the virus is ruining the 158 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: utopia for which they were programmed to create, and they 159 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: start knocking us off. The robot revolutions coming one way 160 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: or the other. The question is which way are we? 161 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: Is that the way humans are really going out or 162 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: are we gonna knock ourselves out of the roots. I 163 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: am bold because we're going to become them, right, That's 164 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: that's at least what is that we and man, that 165 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: is Look, I hit fifty. I become fifty years old 166 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: in October, and so I figure I've got maybe another 167 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: fifty left. Given today's modern medical science. You look good 168 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: if at that point we are able to download ourselves, 169 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: my consciousness and sign me up the first guy in line, 170 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: I don't care if I'm hacked. That's what I get 171 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: in that world. And just see, we've seen the latest 172 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: season in Black Mirror. No, man, that really couldn't make 173 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: it past the initial well this is there's one in 174 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: particular that's actually probably the most upbeat of all the 175 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: episodes of the entire series. It's called San Junipero, and 176 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: it deals with, without any spoilers at all, something along 177 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: the lines of what you're talking. So we get dinged 178 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: for even I accidentally spoiled lost for somebody a show 179 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: that's like yeah, so we we've kind of like stuck 180 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: with a five year cut off. Anyway, you should watch 181 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: if you have time. So we want to thank everybody 182 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: for their opinions, keep us honest. We do have a 183 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: couple of emails that will read on a separate episode 184 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: regarding this, but I think there's a really good point 185 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: that Lucky here May, which is you know, are we 186 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: be cartoonishly optimistic about going of Mars? I think so? 187 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: Have you have you looked at the math? It's insane? Yeah, 188 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: we can. There's no way. The best we could hope 189 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: for is to create some sort of penal colony up there, 190 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,439 Speaker 1: you know, you bad, yeah, yeah, you know. For it's 191 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: the year like Georgia was once upon a time penal colony, 192 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: wasn't it. Yeah, And so like just send the bad 193 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: ones up there. If they build something great, eventually we 194 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: can send up some other forces to take down the 195 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: prisoners and we'll just absorb the stuff that they've built. 196 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: Are awful, you know, I mean all of every organism 197 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: is awful. Every organism is fighting for its dominance in 198 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: this crazy universe of ours. And so like putting into 199 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 1: you want to build something, don't try to send nice 200 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,199 Speaker 1: people up there to do it. And they're gonna turn 201 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 1: on each other anyway, you know, Bill and Mary Jane 202 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 1: are gonna be doing it, and then Roderick is gonna 203 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 1: enter the picture, and then all hell's gonna break loose. 204 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 1: And we only got twenty people up there anyway, and 205 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: now they're all dead because Roderick got piste. Yeah, he uh, 206 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: we really should have screened him, you know what I mean, 207 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: he just didn't like he didn't answer the questions like 208 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: how are they also how how will people be screened? 209 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: Will we be in a situation where the planet there 210 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: are ecosystems collapsing? Right? Like if a kid born today, 211 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: If not, then maybe when they have children, those kids 212 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: are never going to eat a wildfish or something, right, 213 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: and even not even Alaskan sak I well, I mean 214 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 1: farm raised. Maybe that's a good one though, right, that's 215 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: like a premium fish. Yeah, you're hoping we might say 216 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: that Alapa thing is apparently really disgusting, and a lot 217 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: of calamaria is actually pig intestines that too, Yes, we 218 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: think it's camar. That's I've also heard that scallops sometimes 219 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: are just pressed whitefish. They could to cut him out 220 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: with a cookie cutter and it's just like crappy like 221 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 1: white fish that they put in the shape of the scallop. Listen, 222 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: there's so many people on the planet, everything has to 223 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: be a lie. Yes, we just go insane and rip 224 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: each other to shreds. That's true. We have to have 225 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: that illusion of what there was that old quotation that 226 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: was every uh, every every civilization is seven missed meals 227 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: away from anarchy. Like if nobody eats for a week, 228 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: then have you seen la miss? Come on? Actually read 229 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: the book, little Gavroche. I mean, I've actually never seen 230 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: the show, but I have listened to that soundtrack eight 231 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: so you kind of you know theater? Yeah, I remember, 232 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: History's a good show. I've been to Madame two solids 233 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: wax museum. Yeah, oh a sponsor of this show. Oh what, yes, 234 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: we'd just beat. I would love to have her as 235 00:13:53,840 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 1: a she's surely dead. That's just a wax stone, sure 236 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 1: of her. Actually, I think she's in the museum, like 237 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: there is a sculpture sculpture of her. It's like if 238 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: you're a real estate agent, you have a nice house, 239 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,559 Speaker 1: you know. That's a good point. That would be a 240 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: perfect sponsor for the show. Is that to the one 241 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: in New York not long ago? It was a lot 242 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: of fun. It's fun. I'm a kid. I have a 243 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: six year old and she loved it. And as soon 244 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: as you leave, you just want you. You're like, why 245 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: don't I have a wax greaven image of myself and 246 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: wax It's so weird walking up to them, because they 247 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: really do look like living, breathing human beings that at 248 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: any second that could turn to you and go boot 249 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: and freak you out. I was pretty freaked out and 250 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: that that sort of situation that Uncounty Valley might be 251 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: closer than we think, because you know, you mentioned medical 252 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: technology progressing. Um, I think that's realistic. You know, we 253 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: get we hear a lot about futurism, and people say, oh, 254 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: Alan Kurzwild is uh deluding himself when he says we're 255 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: going to discover these different forms of immortality something like 256 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: it is happening. But I think before that, we'll have increasingly, um, 257 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: we'll have androids and artificial artificial beings that cleave increasingly 258 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: closer to what is human. Like in Japan, where there 259 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: are dozens, dare I say, almost hundreds of scientists who 260 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: are saying, let's build a very specific lifelike thing. And 261 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: it's almost always creepy. It's always some guys like the 262 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: perfect woman, see you can feel pain here, very strange. 263 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: We have some rambling fools because we haven't even gotten 264 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: to the topics we discussed and agreed upon. I know, 265 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: I mean I'm Mike in the ramble. But let's let's 266 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: ramble down this road over here. Yeah, let's do the 267 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: let's do that thing they tell you to do in 268 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: technical writing presentations. See what you're gonna talk about, to 269 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: talk about it, to tell people what you talked about. Right, 270 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: Have you ever heard that? It's it's the old filling 271 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: time trick. Well, it's it's it's said it's some guidelines, right, Okay, So, uh, 272 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: we are we wanted to explore some of the following 273 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: things today. We wanted to explore some topics we talked 274 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: about off air, uh, cloning, aliens, magic, marijuana, legalization, and 275 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: the extinction possibly alleged Western bar of the Dodo, which 276 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: is something we didn't know about until until you told 277 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: us about it. We're still out there, man, you think so? No, 278 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: I mean maybe there's some sort of version of it, 279 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: maybe on some you know, they were they were concentrated 280 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: on this one little tiny island of Mauritius. Uh, you know, 281 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: until humans came along, and then they were there for 282 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: millions of years and didn't need to evolve or devolved 283 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: to get rid of their wings. There's no competition, so 284 00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: what's the point. Yeah, there was, there were no mammals 285 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: on the island. People started showing up in the sixteenth century, 286 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: and then we brought along with us not only our 287 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 1: clubs and our appetites, but also boars and dogs and 288 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 1: rats and all kinds of things that ate these ground 289 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 1: dwellers eggs, and so we knocked like within a hundred 290 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 1: years they were gone. Now I'm into the idea that perhaps, yeah, 291 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: I'm sure not all dodos stayed on Mauritius, that the 292 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: sailors who took a liking to these screwy birds throw 293 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: them on ships and brought them to other you know, 294 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 1: ports and all that kind of stuff to show them off, 295 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 1: and maybe a couple of them got loose and everything. 296 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: But there are some really yeah, questionable videos out there 297 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 1: dodos running around, and it's very very obvious that these videos, 298 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, they don't look to legit. But I 299 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: love the idea that maybe maybe you know they're ground dwellers. 300 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: They were in thick jungles most of the time, that 301 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, you guys did cryptids not long ago. 302 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: You know, if a big foot can hide, certainly, oh man, 303 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: they are hideous, though, do you I think they're amazing. 304 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 1: They look like really like dinosaurs that just like left. 305 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 1: Yeah we left around these guys know that. I'm I'm 306 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 1: somewhat terrified of birds. No, yeah, pretty legitimate birds. Yeah yeah, 307 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: they just I don't like their little lies. I don't 308 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: like their little creepy movements and they really that's what 309 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: it is. That's what it is. I'm not crazy about 310 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 1: lizards either. I think that might be You're only safe 311 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: because of the size difference. Yeah yeah, no, myke my 312 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: cat too. It will will like murder birds and like 313 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: bring them home, and I don't even like to mess 314 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: with them when they're dead. Have you ever experienced the 315 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: murder bird? That's what I like north, the Northeast murder 316 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: bird is No, there's not. I have a nightmare sometimes 317 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 1: that they are birds under my covers, Like, no, that's true. 318 00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: Don't have none of it. You've been doing that? What? Yes, 319 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: you you should have given me a were a creep? 320 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: Well fine, I am what I am. Get out of 321 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: my life, out of my head. His cockateals need somewhere 322 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: to go at night. We'll give me too. Because I 323 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 1: have a period I had a period of bird bird love. 324 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: I guess when I was younger, I had a cockat deal. Yeah, 325 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 1: bird like, bird tolerant. I had a cockat deal and 326 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: it was said was pictures of me as a kid. 327 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: But then I turned back that corner of bird hate 328 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 1: and I didn't even want to touch the cocks. So 329 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: you don't want you don't want there to be some 330 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 1: sort of relic population of dodos, which I I agree, 331 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: when very improbable, we have to have birds. I don't 332 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,479 Speaker 1: really believe that. You guys don't write me me an emails, 333 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 1: so so lucky. Uh you sent as this video when 334 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: you were like maybe still alive somewhere, and I was 335 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: thinking of all the animals that could survive with the 336 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 1: relic population dodos, because this is roughly in the same 337 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: area of the world where we still see a lot 338 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 1: of people swearing that they saw Tasmanian tigers you know, 339 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 1: which are which are big creatures, and it's very very different. 340 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 1: Like I know, technically it would be more difficult for 341 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,439 Speaker 1: those to survive just because of their size and their range, 342 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: but they just seem so much more well prepared for 343 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: life than a dodo. Well in a Dodo being a 344 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 1: three ft tall, fifty pound ground birds you know what 345 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: I mean, Like, if they're out there, we're gonna see them, 346 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And yeah, like they gotta 347 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: come out for food. Sometimes they can't just eat in 348 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,479 Speaker 1: the forests. They was shellfish were a part of their 349 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: diet too. Uh. Yeah, I want there to be Dodo. 350 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: It's really bad. I look forward to perhaps. I think 351 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: they recently discovered some DNA evidence of the Dodo. You know, 352 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: they had none. You know, it's just some scraps of 353 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: bones and all that kind of stuff, and people have 354 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: stayed on it for years and years, and just recently 355 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: in the somewhere in the two thousands, they discovered something 356 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 1: with enough DNA evidence that you know, it's like the 357 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: mammoth where you sort of hope that they can read 358 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: it's a ground pigeon. Is the Dodo. It's in the 359 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,360 Speaker 1: pigeon family. So if we can sort of re engineer 360 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: the Dodo birds, well, for what it's worth. In four 361 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: Brits believe the Dodo still exists, according to a study 362 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: from the World Wildlife Federated People. And you know, once 363 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 1: upon a time, the sun never said on the British Empire. 364 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: That's true, that is true. Anybody you know. Also, who knows, 365 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,360 Speaker 1: Maybe the Brits are hiding secret Dodos, maybe in palace. 366 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: Maybe there's a that I'm going to bounce off you. 367 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: What if there is some form of dimensional travel of 368 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 1: which the Sasquatch is a member of. Let's say let's 369 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: say that once upon a time the unicorns figured out 370 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: how to slip through dimensions, and then when the big 371 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: Foot was sort of about to get extinct, the unicorns thought, 372 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna save that big Foot got him to the other. 373 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: Now it's then it was the Dodo. And then every 374 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,199 Speaker 1: once in a while they slipped back through like they 375 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: on your Bigfoot episode. They're like Bigfoot coming like they 376 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: waved the form of weird that if you can be 377 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: seen but then disappear. It was, Yeah, if you're gonna 378 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 1: go down the rabbit hole, go deep, is what I like. 379 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: We don't know that you can't slip through dimensions. We 380 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 1: don't know just because we can't do it and haven't 381 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:37,120 Speaker 1: seen any real evidence. It's true because science does indicate 382 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: that there are dimensions that the average person doesn't interact 383 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: with in a conscious way. We can't were like meat beings, right, 384 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: there's like gotta be more going I mean, there's so 385 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: much more going on than our eyeballs can see, you're perceive, 386 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So like, yeah, who knows. 387 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 1: We still haven't figured out death and we've been trying 388 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 1: to crack that nut for a long time. So do 389 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: you guys ever wonder if you're being observed from some 390 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: higher dimensional we are there right there? There a bunch 391 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: of creeps whis know but yes, I'm sorry to interrupt. 392 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: Yeah I'm making light, but sure some sort of cosmic overlord. 393 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: I don't I don't believe in God, but like I 394 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: get that sense, right, like, there's guy, there's something I 395 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: don't know what it is. Yeah, even if it's just 396 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 1: a population of other intelligent beings that exist on you know, 397 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: higher dimensional level, this idiot breed of ape ruined their 398 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: planet maybe, but it just it makes me wonder if that, 399 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: if if that didn't in fact exist, if uh, peering 400 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 1: into whatever this dimension is would even be possible. Well, 401 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: if there's if there is a supersymmetry to consciousness, then 402 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: they would probably enjoy watching a train wreck. Yeah, so 403 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: I mean, because you can see the whole thing right, Like, 404 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: essentially time would be flat circle, where's my can of 405 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: lone Star? Where's my terrible sequel? Okay, I still believe 406 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: that um so, speaking of sequels and brilliant segues, will 407 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 1: be right back after a word from our sponsor, and 408 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,439 Speaker 1: we have returned. I proposed that we, uh, we shift 409 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 1: to something else, something that's been in the news lately. Yeah. 410 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: I saw this story not long after. I spit into 411 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: a little vial and mailed it off to a company 412 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,919 Speaker 1: called ancestry dot com. They're not a sponsor, so I'm 413 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna trash him a little bits the street. 414 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 1: First of all, they were very nice, they let it. 415 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: It was for another show that I work on called 416 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: Stuff of Life, and we had an episode it was 417 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: called Wired, was about the connection between human beings on 418 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: the planet, whether it's electronic or you know, what's the 419 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: word genetic, or you know, various ancestors, etcetera. And so 420 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: we all took the tests and we got the results 421 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,360 Speaker 1: back and it was so underwhelming. It was like I'm 422 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: Scandinavian or something, and it was just like I was 423 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: expecting more granular detail in there. So it was already 424 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: let down there. Then lo and behold, I stumble upon 425 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 1: this headline genealogy a warning to Ancestry customers who consent 426 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 1: to use DNA services, And it's basically about how they 427 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: have partnered with a biotech company called Calico that's owned 428 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 1: by Google and uh. This partnership allows Ancestry to make 429 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: its customers DNA results um available to other companies for 430 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: research purposes. You know, this is a This is a 431 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: serious rabbit hole if we want to go down it, 432 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 1: which obviously we very much do we already. If you 433 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: want to go to the depths, could they clone me 434 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 1: without my consent? I want to run into another me 435 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: at the mall one. I don't have the whole chase 436 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: and the whole Oh man, I wanted so badgers? For 437 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: what reason would they collect your d NA? Like? Are 438 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 1: they starting a seed bank for humanity? Much like the 439 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 1: seed bank that's being flooded out? And where is it 440 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: noway Norway. Maybe they're just holding onto it till they 441 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: can figure out something cool to do with it. Let's 442 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 1: populate Mars with workers like these guys that you know 443 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,719 Speaker 1: they don't know. Yeah to Nordic, thanks thanks for your 444 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: worker up there. And we got another you digging up pit. 445 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 1: I was underwhelmed to the point where I was like, 446 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: what is up something? Then like like it's like it 447 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: didn't feel like a real feel like a real service. 448 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 1: And now I find this out and it's like, man, 449 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: you know at first, you know, we already know our 450 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: our data as being sold sold. Now it's our d NA. 451 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: Granted I chose to spit into that little vial. That 452 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 1: was my choice, and it was free. But if they're 453 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: really trying to be super nefarious and get particular people's DNA, 454 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: it's easy to chase somebody down and get a glass 455 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: after they drank out its. Yeah, it sucks, but but 456 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: this is like fine print that I like, they have 457 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 1: my study, my stuff. Well, here's the thing he's stuff. 458 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 1: Here's one thing we do know. Gene therapy they would use. 459 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: They would look through your code to find indicators of 460 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: uh preponderance or tendency for a genetic disease predisposition. And 461 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: they would say, well, it turns out that this person 462 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: is Scandinavia and making this up, I'm not trying to 463 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: scare you has a higher um likelihood of developing. What's 464 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 1: something really weird, uh, Like they can make it up 465 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:55,640 Speaker 1: super glaucoma super glaucoma. Yeah, it's an epidemic in Scandinavia. 466 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: And and so they would say, okay, well, now we 467 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: have this this treatment that we've patented that can address 468 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 1: that thing for this specific group of people, but we 469 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: own it. You don't get a part of it. That's 470 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: the other thing they got me because I'm so cheap, 471 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: you guys. When I learned about all the massive data collection, 472 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,959 Speaker 1: just electronic surveillance, I I figured, okay, yeah, well what happens. 473 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 1: And then I learned that they were selling it and 474 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't getting a cut. It was like, that is 475 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: not cool, you know what I mean. So here's here's 476 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: the here's yeah, the gist of the fine print. It's 477 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: just from an article um that I just pulled up. 478 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: It says, basically, ancestry gets to use or distribute your 479 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 1: DNA for any research or commercial purpose it decides, and 480 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 1: doesn't have to pay you or your heirs. Ancestry takes 481 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: this royalty free license in perpetuity for all time and 482 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: constribute the results of your DNA tests anywhere in the 483 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: world with any technology that exists or will ever be invented. 484 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: That's the part I'm talking about, or will ever be 485 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: invented Like that means they could clone me. Yeah, it's 486 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: in context when they give like in perpetuity and all 487 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: the known universe, like they go on, they're like, whoa, 488 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: what the universe? I feel like I got got you guys? 489 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: And long? How long can a blood sample last? Do 490 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: you think or a saliva sample last? Well, you can 491 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: also extracted or something. It's not a one and done 492 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: because you can cultivate it. So they can just continue 493 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: growing until they're ready to make it. I know you're 494 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: trying to make me feel better mad but not helping. 495 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 1: But you gotta put yourself in it. Yeah it sucks. 496 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: Don't do that. Don't take my DNA into stuff with it. 497 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: But what are they really get it? I don't know 498 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: what are they gonna do that's gonna screw up your 499 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: life so bad? Unless they like planted on the on 500 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: a crime scene, But why would they do that. Don't 501 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: make an enemy at whatever Google, so they're not planting 502 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 1: your DNA to murder. Yeah that's the thing though, of 503 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: a company like Google has this kind of power. I 504 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: don't know how I feel. What I wouldn't do is 505 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: just don't ever talk trash about Google or alphabet. I 506 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 1: just did ship has sale that could have launched. We're 507 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: on the way for me. It's not Hey, don't feel bad. Yeah, 508 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,479 Speaker 1: I mean, and if we lose you, we'll just get 509 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: the other version, use my clone. And it's the type 510 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: of thing that maybe one day they like got a 511 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: clone of you in a tank somewhere, and then you're 512 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: like dying of kidney failure and then suddenly there's like, hey, 513 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: we have a kidney that's yours. You can buy it 514 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: from us because you signed this thing that said we 515 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: could have it would come back to you if you 516 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: like grow another one. Yeah, so you're on a payment 517 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: plan right lay away away. The thing about clones in 518 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: the basement is you gotta be really careful about power 519 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: fluctuations like that can be a big deal just from 520 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 1: you know, from every everything he learned. Yeah, from everything 521 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:57,479 Speaker 1: I've learned that while they're in the tank, I'm assuming 522 00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: they'll be in some sort of tank that if power 523 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: flux weights between that, then what might happen? Mutations will happen. 524 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, all kinds of bad things could happen. Well, 525 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: you should know a little thing or two about cloning. 526 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: That's sort of a thing they carry the comedy that 527 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: Adam Read writes a script about such things. That's all. 528 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 1: I don't you have a basement with tanks? No oudly enough, 529 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: even though most of my Twitter followers think that I am, 530 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: in fact the cartoon scientists. It's remarkable to me that 531 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 1: in the century people still people don't know the difference 532 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: between the person who voices a character and this actual 533 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: cartoon scientist that does insane thing. Are you're saying you 534 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: don't have a holographic girlfriend? Really don't. Although last year 535 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: a dragon Con, there was a guy who dressed his 536 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: creaker and he had a little mini uh projector with 537 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 1: him and he would stand next to walls and he 538 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: had a Mitsuko as her name, and she would actually 539 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: she could move like there was like any jif form, 540 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: and so she would move next to him. It was brilliant. 541 00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: It was like, oh, so good. You got to respect 542 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: the crap at that point, right. It really incredible people 543 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: are devoted colayers. Dragon Con cosplay in particular is pretty 544 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: and the whole point of that whole it's a New 545 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 1: York comic con for the first time, and it was amazing, 546 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 1: Like the rooms, like the vendors, got blew my mind. 547 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: But like the costume game was just not nearly the 548 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: same gigantic TV and film trade draw and cosplays a 549 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: tiny little part of it. It's so strange to me 550 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: with with cosplay because there is something on a psychological 551 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:35,479 Speaker 1: level so alluring and tempting to to become some other person, 552 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: you know, and at heart, like I know, sometimes people 553 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: can say, oh, that's that's silly, why are you doing this? 554 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 1: But at heart, it's the same compulsion that drives people 555 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: to change their identities permanently. Or I don't talk very 556 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: much about my personal life on this show, but I 557 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 1: will confess something because it happened in the in the past. 558 00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 1: I when I found out usually where um dark or 559 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:01,959 Speaker 1: colored clothing. When I found out that I could take 560 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: a piece of just eight and a half by eleven 561 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: paper rolled up like this, stick it under the collar 562 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 1: of my shirt and be wearing all black, then I 563 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: started impersonating a priest on Martha and I'm sorry, it 564 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: was great. What did you do as a priest? People 565 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 1: conransportation people would come up and talk to me. You know, 566 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: what is an easy way around all this tomfoolery is 567 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 1: just go online and get yourself with twenty five UH ministers, 568 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: which I have. Yeah, Yeah, I'm a Yeah. I wear 569 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 1: my collar out in public sometimes. And do people want 570 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: somebody to talk to as much of an atheist as 571 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 1: I am? And I am a ranging one man. People 572 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: want some sort of religious place to go and just 573 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: dump all their junk onto. I liked it better when 574 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: you wear the eye patch. Yeah, the eye patch is 575 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 1: a different experiment. I walked up to after work spot 576 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: and Ben was wearing an eye patch, and you know, 577 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: Ben's a little bit of an intense figure sometimes regular guys. 578 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: So I'm like, hey, man, everything okay, and He's like, 579 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about it. And I was 580 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: like okay, and I'm like I know when to back off, 581 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: and so I backed off. And this other guy unrelated 582 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: to the original group walked up and knows Ben what's 583 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: going off the eye patch? I don't want to talk 584 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: about it, and it can. I was like, I really 585 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:16,959 Speaker 1: thought something was up, and then like later it turned 586 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: out that he was just messing around with all social 587 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: experiments will do while I wear an eye patch and 588 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about I I don't know 589 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: if I'm with you, man, Thanks man, I don't know 590 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: about I don't know about fools, but yeah, it was 591 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 1: Oh gosh, man, rocketting and eye patch. I think it's 592 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: disrespectful if your eyes work to do it permanently, you know, 593 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: because I was thinking, what if I run into someone 594 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:47,399 Speaker 1: who actually has because you could tell a real eye 595 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 1: patch versus a fake eye patch I have. The real 596 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 1: ones are obviously medical devices, and they've got gauze and 597 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 1: stuff on them. You don't really see people walking around 598 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 1: with the black eye patch, but right, and so if 599 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,399 Speaker 1: I ran more of a fashion state, if I ran 600 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 1: into that person, it would be like running into a 601 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: genuine priest. What I'm dressed as a priest, I would 602 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 1: have to I don't know if I would just turn 603 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,439 Speaker 1: tail and try to disappear, or if I would try 604 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: to see if my BS skills were accurately claim. You know, 605 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 1: I'm an internet uh minister, and I saw people that 606 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 1: might have needed to reach out, and so I slapped 607 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 1: on a little collar. Yeah, pulled a Dave Chappelle thing. 608 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 1: Just because I'm dressed this way does not make me 609 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 1: a police. Oh boy, who, I'm sorry, I've derailed us 610 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 1: a little bit. Let me read it back. Yeah, Okay, 611 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 1: what if you ran into your clone? If I ran 612 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: into my clone, I would love it. I would be 613 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: I patch is the only one that tells us who 614 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: the real that's that's that's what I would need to do. Um. 615 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: It's It's interesting because when we talk about the science 616 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:55,840 Speaker 1: of cloning, they're actually some very dangerous problems with the 617 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: clones for some reason that we don't understand, tend to 618 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 1: be much us healthy. Like Dolly the Sheep was just 619 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,359 Speaker 1: that that four lamb did not get a fair shake 620 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 1: from the start. Can you believe it's been since n 621 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 1: when Dolly the Sheep was Yeah, I didn't even realize 622 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:18,439 Speaker 1: that was last century. I figured that was definitely that. Wow, 623 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,760 Speaker 1: it feels like we haven't gotten that far, really stopped 624 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 1: that unless ancestry dot com it's got warehouses full of us. 625 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: There are theories about human cloning centers that are all 626 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,240 Speaker 1: over the Internet, and we've been written to many times 627 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: asking us to cover these things. Why are why are 628 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,879 Speaker 1: you not? You need a man in the field, that's 629 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: the problem. Yeah, we need somebody to go out there 630 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 1: and try and infiltrate one of these things. You need 631 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 1: Lucky Aids slightly successful voice actor. I want to clone myself. 632 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 1: I want I want to get off this money trade good. 633 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 1: And the thing is, if we send a clone out, 634 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: you know, it'll be it'll be a tragedy when something 635 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: happens to them, but it'll be a tragedy we originals 636 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: can all experience together. This is when we get a 637 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 1: clone of ourselves. First of all, they're gonna be a baby, right, 638 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,879 Speaker 1: So it's like, who knows if this baby is even 639 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: gonna live past six months and it's still just gonna 640 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: be a baby. It'll just come out fully formed. We're 641 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 1: not there yet. We're not to venture brothers where like 642 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: we've got these tanks and beds and all that kind 643 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,799 Speaker 1: of stuff. It's like, no, we're gonna have age. Acceleration 644 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 1: is a whole different. Yeah, it's the consciousness really that 645 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: we got to get out of our bodies. Making more 646 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 1: meat versions of ourselves is silly. If we are this 647 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: close to the singularity of melving with machinery, right, But 648 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,040 Speaker 1: would I want to go But that's the question. Would 649 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: it be just a copy of your consciousness? You know? 650 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: It's like that old Theseus's ship, right, the old idea 651 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:58,399 Speaker 1: that if you slowly replace pieces of a ship over time. Yeah, yeah, 652 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: because you're calling it whatever. Yeah, it's a completely different things. Sure, 653 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,359 Speaker 1: why not as long as you've got I mean, all 654 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,839 Speaker 1: we are is a bag of chemicals with memories, right, 655 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:14,399 Speaker 1: which are chemically induced. Yeah, so if you can keep 656 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: those memories and keep building on them, which is the 657 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: way at least our understanding of how we work. Uh sure, 658 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 1: why not. It's just a different version of what we're 659 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: already doing. It's just and gooy if we get hit 660 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: by a rock and you might not know, I mean 661 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 1: you would know, but it would be a relatively academic 662 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: fact after that, where you know, maybe in the future 663 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: it would be a fun fact that you tell your 664 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 1: friends at parties. You're like, you know, I used to 665 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: be made out of like weird meat meat. Yeah, I 666 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 1: had a part of me had to be cut off 667 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: because I mangled it when I fell up my bicycle. 668 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: Which reads those anymore? Did you guys ever read the 669 00:38:55,920 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 1: comic that's available online, I think through existential comics. It 670 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 1: was called The Machine, and it was all a thought 671 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: experiment about this very thing with a teleportation machine with 672 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:09,800 Speaker 1: every time you teleport, you die and another copy is 673 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 1: created in the prestige. Yeah, essentially the same thing, and 674 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 1: in this story I will toil it too much. But 675 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 1: it's such a popular thing because you can teleport anywhere, 676 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 1: and everyone's just doing it, and everyone is just killing 677 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: themselves and reconstituting themselves. But pick up right, like, like, 678 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 1: is there even a blit in the mind of the 679 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: clone that lets them know that they're a clone? And subjective? 680 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,720 Speaker 1: They're probably in subjective time there probably wouldn't be Ideally, 681 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: they wouldn't. We've talked about this before over over cocktails. 682 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: He sounds so classy. Yes, well, you know, it's just 683 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 1: it's just because it's kind of thing where when you've 684 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,919 Speaker 1: had a few beverages you can really you go around 685 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: around and stuff like this for a while. But the 686 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 1: think of the problem with that is we all, I 687 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,360 Speaker 1: don't know about you guys, but I always thought that 688 00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: I sounded way smarter than I actually did. You know, 689 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 1: usually sound of as smart as you are. I'm gonna 690 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 1: choose to interpret that as a compliment as it list 691 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 1: uh so, but incouraged Let's say you could have a clone, right, 692 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: Let's okay, Yeah, they could sort of accelerated. It's age 693 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,360 Speaker 1: up to somewhere point would you want to have one around? 694 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 1: Let's say like, oh no, Mike, liver is failing thanks 695 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 1: to our conversations about this very thing. Now I need 696 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,400 Speaker 1: my spare part. I would keep on me in a 697 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 1: tank for spare part that you couldn't make it to 698 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 1: me being downloaded? Do I want to be friends with him? 699 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: And then you go like, by the way, I'm taking 700 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 1: your liver well, and you hear me, yeah, he thanks 701 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 1: other me, And then you start fighting about who, like 702 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: who deserves to live more? Does the original who is 703 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 1: failing to live more? Or does the improved clone deserve 704 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 1: to live more? Who knows everything? I think we should 705 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: just I think the answer that a lot of people 706 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 1: will find is maybe it's just easy or to make organs. 707 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's more more difficult or if 708 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,720 Speaker 1: it's easier because you have to build an entire support 709 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,879 Speaker 1: system to impersonate the rest of the body for that liver, 710 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 1: there'd have to be something like blood going through it. 711 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 1: But in theory that couldn't you do it like you know, 712 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,359 Speaker 1: chicken McNuggets style, where it was all on an assembly line. 713 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,719 Speaker 1: You could just make dozens of livers. Yeah, kind of 714 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: maybe exactly, like, yeah, you gotta have like a selection, 715 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 1: you know, Like, I don't know, man, I feel like 716 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:31,479 Speaker 1: that would be instantly used by nefarious billionaires. Did you Also, 717 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:33,879 Speaker 1: did you guys read this study? Um, well, I don't 718 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:37,839 Speaker 1: know if it's studied. I'm not on this, but there 719 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:42,240 Speaker 1: were rumors going around that, uh, people had discovered transfusions 720 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 1: of blood from young mice into old mice improved their health. 721 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:54,319 Speaker 1: Real life vampire, right, this is a real thing now 722 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 1: in Silicon Valley on the TV show it was there, 723 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,800 Speaker 1: but also in real life of infused in young blood 724 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 1: into it. That's ridiculous, though, aren't we can constantly making 725 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 1: new blood? Right, We're not just using the tank of 726 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: blood we were born with, you know, we don't have 727 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know for how long? How 728 00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: long does this attitude last when the blood it sounds 729 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 1: like them in vigor for the rest of time or 730 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 1: does it after a week? You know that's gonna say. 731 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 1: Imagine it's like taking a vitamin supplement or something. We're 732 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 1: just good through you essentially, then you're getting into that 733 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: countess that they yeah women battery, Yeah, well, also you 734 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 1: know mace water. What if it's just what if it's 735 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 1: just like twenty minutes, you know that's uh? Is it 736 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: worth it? Right? Thanks? College kid, don't life gave me 737 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:59,359 Speaker 1: twenty minutes of your ecstasy? Uh? Did you guys watch 738 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:03,879 Speaker 1: Silicon Val this season? There's this whole this whole thing 739 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 1: based on this where it's a guy who was just 740 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,839 Speaker 1: employed with a salary to sit there for twenty minutes 741 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 1: and infuse blood. Well, it's character and it's based on 742 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 1: actual Well I can give you some of the background, 743 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,719 Speaker 1: you guys. So there's a This story got reported at 744 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 1: m I T Technology Review. Uh. It is being offered 745 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,440 Speaker 1: as an anti aging thing from a company called Ambrosia 746 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 1: for eight grand a pop. They will uh yeah, they 747 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,920 Speaker 1: will inject you. I feel like all four of us 748 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 1: are so creepy by calling it new blood, but that's 749 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 1: what it is. Young blood young boy looks like the 750 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 1: Radiohead song We Suck Young Blood. They were prescience, weren't they? 751 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 1: So Uh. The guy who started, Jesse Karmazan, said that 752 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:01,799 Speaker 1: within a month, most participants see improvements from the one 753 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 1: time infusion of a two leader bag full of plasma. 754 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,800 Speaker 1: So uh. Several scientists say his trial is so poorly 755 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,840 Speaker 1: designed it can't hope to provide evidence about the effects. 756 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: And it was also a pay to participate study that 757 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 1: collected four point eight million from the participants. That many 758 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: people lined up. Yeah, wow, wow, I you know, I 759 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 1: want to see how this shakes out. A lot of 760 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 1: people are saying that a lot of other experts are 761 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: skeptical to say the least. But I have to ask 762 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,720 Speaker 1: if we assume it worked, Like if somehow it worked, 763 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 1: which biologically at this point doesn't make sense. But but 764 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 1: if it worked, what would be the point where you 765 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,320 Speaker 1: would not do it? You know? Would it have to 766 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,839 Speaker 1: be like the time span is not enough, would someone 767 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 1: have to die? Would you be taking all of someone's 768 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 1: blood and then living a more healthy virile. It just 769 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,800 Speaker 1: strikes me as such a boogie thoughtless thing to do. 770 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: In the first place, we know blood donation centers are 771 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 1: always in short supply, not enough people donate blood, and 772 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 1: we're just like scooping up all the blood that like 773 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 1: dying children needs and just just like feel good, get 774 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:24,400 Speaker 1: a little pep in my step. But imagine, terrible, imagine 775 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 1: if you could make a living, like an actual living 776 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 1: and pay rent just by giving your blood away to 777 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,800 Speaker 1: these ultra rich humans. Would you do that? But wouldn't 778 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 1: you feel terrible all the time? You'd just be a 779 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:40,400 Speaker 1: blood bag? Like yeah, you would literally do something. No, 780 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,400 Speaker 1: that's a terrible life. That's not all. That's not all. 781 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 1: That's cool though. You could play some PlayStation while you 782 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 1: do you make all the time like about to pass out. 783 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:54,440 Speaker 1: You just have cookie, yeah, or just cooking inn oculus 784 00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:58,240 Speaker 1: risk and you're good to get know what a terrible 785 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 1: stop it. People's awful, all right. I'll admit though, if 786 00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:07,520 Speaker 1: I even't really wanted to clone, just like the idea 787 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,839 Speaker 1: of it, Yeah, of course, yeah, of course I would. 788 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 1: If I ran into another at the mall, it would 789 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 1: be the best. It would be cool, like hopefully if 790 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 1: they had similar personalities, which we don't know if they would, 791 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,879 Speaker 1: we don't know, we don't know. Right, there's the one. 792 00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 1: There's this one farmer that had a beloved bull, and 793 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 1: this bull would come in and out of their house 794 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 1: all the time. And the bull finally died and they 795 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: went to like Korea to have this thing cloned, and 796 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 1: it came in. It started out like, oh, it's just 797 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 1: like old rab or whatever the bull, and then the 798 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:40,319 Speaker 1: bull turned on them because clones are bevil. Clearly they've 799 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:45,320 Speaker 1: never seen science fiction, and so the bull became this horrible, crazy, 800 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,319 Speaker 1: rampaging bull that they had to put down. And they 801 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:52,240 Speaker 1: should have been able to tell the mustache and all. Also, 802 00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,759 Speaker 1: don't let bulls in the house. That is a bad 803 00:46:56,440 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 1: number one. Yeah, you got a bull, the bullyard. Yeah, 804 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 1: that's when people that's when people tell me my my 805 00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 1: first day, told me on my first day, starting here, 806 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,359 Speaker 1: should we we should we take a quick stop, hop 807 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 1: off the bowl and take a sponsor break and then 808 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 1: hop back on. Sounds great and ride. So now our 809 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: our sojourn finds us arriving at something that Matt Noel 810 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:29,919 Speaker 1: and I had talked about a lot off air, which 811 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:36,840 Speaker 1: was our earlier interview about disclosure with Stephen Greer Aliens. 812 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 1: This is one of the things you had mentioned off 813 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 1: air too. I wanted to bring that up earlier and 814 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,880 Speaker 1: tie to something we mentioned, this idea of being watched 815 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 1: by some force and the idea that they're sort of 816 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:51,759 Speaker 1: watching us screw up our lives and our planet in 817 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 1: our society. And we talked in the interview about if 818 00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 1: these are extra dimensional creatures, do they have some purpose 819 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 1: and interact thing with us, like, are they here to 820 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 1: help us? Are they watched waiting to watch us burn 821 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 1: ourselves to the ground so they can swoop in and 822 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 1: do something with what we leave behind. I don't know. 823 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:11,239 Speaker 1: I think that's that was one of my favorite parts 824 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 1: of that discussion. Yeah, I'm always I'm always terrified with 825 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:18,800 Speaker 1: the quietly terrified. I would think a very like repressed 826 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 1: British kind of terrified. When I think about the physicist 827 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:27,239 Speaker 1: who say Stephen Hawkins is one famous example, but the 828 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 1: physicists who say we don't want to meet extraterrestrials, why 829 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:34,920 Speaker 1: would they come all this way if they were traveling, 830 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, according to the dimensional rules we understand. And 831 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 1: more even more disturbing, what if what if there are 832 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:47,799 Speaker 1: other civilizations? Are SINCHI intelligent beings? They can hear all 833 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: the signals we're trying to put out and they're just 834 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 1: not responding. Yeah, maybe they're just like no way, yeah 835 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to And maybe they're hiding. Maybe they're hiding. 836 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,360 Speaker 1: Maybe we're colle actively our species. Is that idiot in 837 00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: a horror movie who's like, hey, guys, I heard something 838 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 1: weird in this house. I better go down there. I'll 839 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:12,680 Speaker 1: go down this cellar up the stairs, you see. I 840 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 1: think we're just more in our infancy. If there are 841 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 1: other intelligence spaces, were nothing compared to the lifespan of 842 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 1: a planet. I mean, we're in the middle of how 843 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:30,880 Speaker 1: many times has there been a mass extinction? We're in 844 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:33,560 Speaker 1: the middle of the sixth one right now. Yeah, okay, 845 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,879 Speaker 1: so so five times before everything has been wiped out, 846 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 1: and so we're just the leaders at this one. Like 847 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 1: we had not been on this planet for that long 848 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:47,840 Speaker 1: as a species. Uh, I'm going to say evolution, because 849 00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 1: that's how it works. You know, we've evolved during just 850 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 1: this small amount of time. Great, we have thumbs and 851 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 1: big brain cavities. But my question to all that is 852 00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:00,319 Speaker 1: that maybe there are and they be you know, they're 853 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: watching us and all that kind of stuff and don't 854 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:04,919 Speaker 1: want to have anything to do with us or our 855 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:09,800 Speaker 1: planets set up. Maybe species can't evolved to such a 856 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,800 Speaker 1: state to even make it off a planet, you know 857 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:16,160 Speaker 1: what I mean, like maybe the universal laws or whatever, 858 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:19,759 Speaker 1: just like why would we ever want to infect other 859 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 1: places with you? I don't know. I mean that's the 860 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 1: Earth is like an organism basically, uh, you know, and 861 00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:31,400 Speaker 1: every creature on it is another organism that is fighting 862 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,440 Speaker 1: for space all that kind of stuff, and humans are 863 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:37,880 Speaker 1: really running wild on ours and you know, at some 864 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 1: point we're going to throw good numbers of ourselves off 865 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:43,839 Speaker 1: one way or the other. And maybe that's just how 866 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 1: life works, uh in the universe, is that that we 867 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:51,279 Speaker 1: can only get so far, any species can only get 868 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,719 Speaker 1: so far before they just burn themselves out or throw 869 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 1: themselves off the planet because they get too smart. But 870 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 1: our own good. I really like that you pointed that 871 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,680 Speaker 1: out because the one of the things that we've explored 872 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:06,319 Speaker 1: in the past, which is bothers people on an existential level, 873 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 1: is just what you said. It's a massive um. I 874 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 1: guess I could say it's a massive pain in the 875 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:15,040 Speaker 1: ass I can say on the air, right, Okay, well, 876 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 1: I think we've loosened the reins a little. That's true. 877 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 1: From the Mars interview. I forgot about that, yes, But 878 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:23,359 Speaker 1: the point is, you know, it's it's a massive pain 879 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 1: to take anything that's specifically adapted to living in this 880 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: larger organism recreated environment, uh in a sustainable way and 881 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:36,759 Speaker 1: then just put it out in glorified um. I mean, 882 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,480 Speaker 1: the best we can do, but a glorified container, right 883 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:43,680 Speaker 1: and then and then say okay, let's just keep playing 884 00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,960 Speaker 1: this lottery until we can build something. So I says, 885 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,800 Speaker 1: something larger and sob I sustainable. It seems like the 886 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:54,400 Speaker 1: future of space exploration is going to belong to whatever 887 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:59,720 Speaker 1: new life form humanity creates. So we're not the protagonist. 888 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:04,320 Speaker 1: Elite were like the builders. Yeah, they're like the midwives 889 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:06,880 Speaker 1: or something. Yeah, yeah, we we were the result. And 890 00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 1: and you know, there's of course the theories that the 891 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 1: life on this planet evolved from commets and things smashing 892 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,800 Speaker 1: into it because somewhere else there were these organisms and 893 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:19,320 Speaker 1: the microscopic level that attached to the various commets and 894 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: whatnot got here and then boom, life happened. And so 895 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 1: you know, if we really want to get off planet, 896 00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 1: I say, we just start you know, shooting, put put 897 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:32,320 Speaker 1: our personal microbes on some rocks in the space and 898 00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 1: hope for the best. Get some spermozoa and some eggs 899 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 1: on these rocks and get them out there trying to 900 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 1: put a man. Why would we try to put humans 901 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:45,680 Speaker 1: on Mars where they're just gonna get bombarded with radiations 902 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:50,080 Speaker 1: and nightmare scenarios that they'll never survive? Is it because 903 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 1: we just want to have one guy or one lady 904 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,160 Speaker 1: who can one up buzz Aldrin And a conversation later 905 00:52:55,360 --> 00:53:00,320 Speaker 1: when I had what did you do? Was one of 906 00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:03,320 Speaker 1: the most fascinating things from the Mars episode They procreating 907 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 1: on Mars and how how long it will take to 908 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:08,320 Speaker 1: figure out if that's even possible. I mean, it's so 909 00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:10,800 Speaker 1: like completely unsustainable. Was I think they could take a 910 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 1: hundred people at a time and their goal is to 911 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,919 Speaker 1: get a million people and yeah, and they were saying 912 00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,880 Speaker 1: by the time that everyone got there, there'd be a 913 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:21,279 Speaker 1: whole new generation of kids that have been born. They 914 00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:23,880 Speaker 1: worked the way we work because we grew up on 915 00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 1: this planet, not on some other planets. But one thing 916 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:30,160 Speaker 1: that came up in the interview was with with with Marshall, 917 00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:34,280 Speaker 1: was I brought up the idea would we evolve differently 918 00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:39,840 Speaker 1: on Mars versus you know, who really figured this stuff 919 00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:46,240 Speaker 1: out was the first total recall, whereas immediately like true 920 00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:48,800 Speaker 1: Martians became mutants. So these weird because they were just 921 00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:52,320 Speaker 1: growing up in this completely different environment than Earth is. 922 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:54,520 Speaker 1: And so we started sending people there and they started breeding, 923 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:59,239 Speaker 1: and then you got quatto. Yeah, if you've seen the 924 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:02,399 Speaker 1: video where that but he's singing your Eyes by Peter 925 00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:09,960 Speaker 1: Gabriel and again to go with Hawking, Yeah, why would 926 00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:13,360 Speaker 1: we want to meet? So let's say some species was 927 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 1: brilliant enough to make its way off the planet or 928 00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:18,040 Speaker 1: slip in between dimensions and all that kind of stuff, 929 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:22,280 Speaker 1: and they're here and they're watching us, who are total morons, 930 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 1: like with the humans, do not have it figured out 931 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:27,640 Speaker 1: or else the world would be in a very nice 932 00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:31,680 Speaker 1: state right now where everybody would be working harmoniously with 933 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 1: one another. We are absolutely not in that state. But 934 00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 1: they's gonna be so much further advance. Why would they 935 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 1: come here for anything other than resources? And if that's 936 00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:44,600 Speaker 1: what they're here for, unless we're the resource they need, 937 00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:48,440 Speaker 1: then would be getting loaded onto ships to just wipe 938 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:51,200 Speaker 1: us out and take whatever they were here for it Unobtainedum, 939 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:56,040 Speaker 1: there was a Twilight Zone episode where the Aliens wanted 940 00:54:56,040 --> 00:55:00,880 Speaker 1: to take us all to their planet. Everyone about it, right, accept, 941 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 1: that's great show, great, they created like every twisty sci 942 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:17,280 Speaker 1: fi troupe in that gallery. You have a quote. Kreager 943 00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 1: has a quote in the show about superior anal technology 944 00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:22,759 Speaker 1: with the Aliens and that's why he was so fascinated 945 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:25,839 Speaker 1: by abductions and aliens. Yeah, and uh, they could tell 946 00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 1: so much just by probing our butts. That's that's one 947 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,400 Speaker 1: of the strangest and funniest things to come out of 948 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 1: pop culture around abductions and aliens and all that. I 949 00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:38,879 Speaker 1: just why is it always an anal prob? Why are you? Yeah, 950 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 1: why are they anybody so much information? What's ground zero 951 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:47,800 Speaker 1: for anal probe? Alien tropes? Like? Was it? Was it 952 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 1: the Twilight Zone? No? I don't think who was during 953 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 1: the collective there was some real fads of suddenly there 954 00:55:55,719 --> 00:56:00,320 Speaker 1: were all these were forward, right, and so like that. 955 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,759 Speaker 1: I think one abduct he probably brought it up, and 956 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 1: then other abductees quotes on the same Oh yeah, that 957 00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:10,240 Speaker 1: happened to me too. And then then of course, because 958 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:12,880 Speaker 1: it's the funniest thing that could happen is that you 959 00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 1: would go on this ship and the aliens would start 960 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,720 Speaker 1: sticking things in your butt. That's the one that people 961 00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:21,160 Speaker 1: because we are still just who throwing monkeys? Absolutely, and 962 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:27,120 Speaker 1: I know I don't not believe in the concept of abductions. 963 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:29,279 Speaker 1: I just don't think we have enough information. I'm not 964 00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,320 Speaker 1: like fully on board. But I have the same attitude 965 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:34,520 Speaker 1: towards that as I do about like the existence of 966 00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:39,480 Speaker 1: you know, a greater here's you know, if Anywans were 967 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 1: coming here and abducting us, why would they put us back? 968 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:46,120 Speaker 1: I want to just take us, take a person, go off, 969 00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:49,319 Speaker 1: do all their experiments in the discard? Why did they 970 00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:54,440 Speaker 1: wait for ethical reasons bringing us back and putting us 971 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:58,440 Speaker 1: back in the sort of fuzzy memories of what happened, 972 00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:00,839 Speaker 1: Like what's the point of throwing us back? Maybe they 973 00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:04,959 Speaker 1: have really high level morals in there, and they would 974 00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,320 Speaker 1: ask us permission, and they have a booth and you 975 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 1: know who sign up college campuses at the alien fair 976 00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 1: where you would go and see like, oh yeah, I'm 977 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:17,720 Speaker 1: gonna go with this experiment as I want the aliens 978 00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:20,720 Speaker 1: to figure out about us. You'd get a small amount 979 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 1: of money. Why would they ever bring us a stipend 980 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:25,840 Speaker 1: at least? Yeah, Like we had all these extra steps 981 00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 1: so that they're nice to us in the end, Like 982 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 1: they're awful, but they're nice. Well, there's also the possibility 983 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 1: that abductions occur, but are the cause is misattributed, you know, 984 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:38,040 Speaker 1: because we know memory is treacherous, right, One thing I 985 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 1: thought was interesting about these alien abduction stories is if 986 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: you look at them plot point for plot point, they're very, 987 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 1: very similar to the old tropes of people being visited 988 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:51,240 Speaker 1: by change lands or fairies. You know. So I think 989 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:55,840 Speaker 1: there's a larger phenomenon or experience or something in the zeitgeist. 990 00:57:56,240 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 1: But I think it's also it's all just very It's 991 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:06,320 Speaker 1: it's easy to attribute a specific cause with a lack 992 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 1: of transparency, but if we don't know, then we can 993 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 1: just say what is more likely, what is less likely? 994 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:14,920 Speaker 1: And I love the point you're making about why why 995 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:17,280 Speaker 1: would it be catch and release? You know what I mean? 996 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 1: Because what is this? What you will there's a whole 997 00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 1: spaces endless as far as we know, just chuck our 998 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: bodies out when you're done with us. I will say 999 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,280 Speaker 1: this though, and this bleeds into not only what we're 1000 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:36,640 Speaker 1: talking about, but also my theory on ghosts another which 1001 00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 1: is dimensional echoes. Right, So we could be, you know, 1002 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 1: the theory say that we live in this multidimensional system 1003 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:47,760 Speaker 1: where and let's say, dimensions rub up against each other. 1004 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:50,680 Speaker 1: That's what I think ghosts because I wish, man, I 1005 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:54,400 Speaker 1: wish more than anybody, you know that ghost spooky ghosts 1006 00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:56,440 Speaker 1: would be flying around all over the place. God, I 1007 00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:58,960 Speaker 1: want that to be real. I don't think it is. 1008 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 1: But I've lived in a house that other tenants have 1009 00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:05,600 Speaker 1: claimed was haunted, and they heard a lot of things, 1010 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:07,080 Speaker 1: and every once in a while you would see a 1011 00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:10,160 Speaker 1: weird shadow walk by that you didn't. But I think 1012 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 1: things like that are just like maybe there's a dimensional echo, right, 1013 00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 1: Maybe sometimes that they the strings or whatever get a 1014 00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:21,000 Speaker 1: little close to each other, and so there's some bleed 1015 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 1: in between dimensions, and maybe abductees are sleeping and they 1016 00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:31,520 Speaker 1: see this guy, they some other upside, some other dimensional 1017 00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 1: thing will rub up against it there they can perceive it. 1018 00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:36,440 Speaker 1: They don't know what to make of it, and so 1019 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:40,080 Speaker 1: they create this already in the pop culture mindset, or 1020 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 1: these alien abductions, and so it must have been that 1021 00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:45,560 Speaker 1: as opposed to this other thing that I can't even 1022 00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:48,720 Speaker 1: possibly begin to explain. I don't know, did you ever 1023 00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:51,479 Speaker 1: have any personal experiences while you were there? The only 1024 00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:54,480 Speaker 1: seeing out of the corner like me and some buds. 1025 00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 1: Granted we were in our twenties, all stoners, beyond belief 1026 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 1: and you know, up at all hours, just being ridiculous, 1027 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 1: but we would all be sitting there, like either watching 1028 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 1: TV or something, and you'd see something walk by a 1029 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:12,960 Speaker 1: doorway of these big French doors, and you'd see something, 1030 01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:15,040 Speaker 1: and everybody in the room would turn and look, you know, 1031 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:17,640 Speaker 1: at the same time, like what was that, and like 1032 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:21,960 Speaker 1: whoa what just happened? And one of my very best 1033 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:25,000 Speaker 1: friends on the planet and also a big skeptic, was 1034 01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:28,080 Speaker 1: left in the house at one point during the holiday season. 1035 01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 1: Everybody left and he heard like a full on party 1036 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,000 Speaker 1: going on upstairs and he was alone in the house 1037 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 1: and he was freaked out, like he like left the house. 1038 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:41,320 Speaker 1: He couldn't take it anymore. And the guy, one of 1039 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:44,160 Speaker 1: our buddies, who his grandmother had originally owned the house, 1040 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 1: and apparently there was a lot of entertaining that went 1041 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:49,080 Speaker 1: on during the holidays and all that kind of stuff. 1042 01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 1: And that's when I was like, well, maybe these are 1043 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:53,400 Speaker 1: just some sort of echoes of those old times and 1044 01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:57,320 Speaker 1: stuff that somehow, I don't know, a conscious not a 1045 01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:02,960 Speaker 1: conscious thing, just say another experience. So I've told this 1046 01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:04,440 Speaker 1: story in the podcast before. I used to tell the 1047 01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:06,960 Speaker 1: quick version. Um, But when I was a kid, a 1048 01:01:07,080 --> 01:01:09,840 Speaker 1: girl I was dating a dear friend of hers died 1049 01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 1: in a car accident and I got into her car, 1050 01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,560 Speaker 1: my my girlfriend at the time, she was finished class, 1051 01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:17,600 Speaker 1: and it was like really cold, got in and she 1052 01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:20,080 Speaker 1: was like crying, and I'm like, what's up? And she 1053 01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 1: blows on the inside of her car windshield and the 1054 01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:25,800 Speaker 1: girl who died with her signatures. They're clear as day. 1055 01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:28,320 Speaker 1: And in my mind at that moment, I was like 1056 01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:34,560 Speaker 1: ghosts and you got really emotional, and I felt like 1057 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,920 Speaker 1: a sense of this thing. But I know now that 1058 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:39,760 Speaker 1: it was totally like the kind of thing of a 1059 01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:43,040 Speaker 1: girlfriend would do, you know, like in their early twenties 1060 01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:45,040 Speaker 1: or whatever, write your name and in the in your 1061 01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:47,600 Speaker 1: breath or whatever, and you got residue on your fingers, 1062 01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:50,720 Speaker 1: so it's it's like, yeah, exactly. But like in that 1063 01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:54,640 Speaker 1: moment though, I was just like done, I mean, you know, 1064 01:01:54,920 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 1: and it was like and he I didn't even have 1065 01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:58,640 Speaker 1: to explain it away, just kind of like fizzled over 1066 01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:00,800 Speaker 1: time where I realized, oh, I was kind of like 1067 01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 1: really taken in by the moment, but like this is 1068 01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 1: really what was happening, and it was kind of disappointing. 1069 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 1: You know, our brains want an answer a lot of 1070 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: times they're just aren't ones that we can perceive, and 1071 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:15,200 Speaker 1: so we come up with ghosts. Wen here's where we 1072 01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:19,360 Speaker 1: get into something very similar, where the human mind is 1073 01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:22,800 Speaker 1: just trying to make sense of something that we don't understand, 1074 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:30,240 Speaker 1: and we call it a lot of times magic. So yeah, okay, 1075 01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:34,960 Speaker 1: all right, I'll buy magic. Yeah. Magic, Well, it's something 1076 01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 1: that comes up here all the time because we discuss 1077 01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,600 Speaker 1: how technology, if it's advanced enough, it seems to be 1078 01:02:40,680 --> 01:02:44,760 Speaker 1: magic to us simply because we can't explain it. I cannot. Yeah, 1079 01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:46,280 Speaker 1: as far as I know, there's a little wizard that 1080 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,400 Speaker 1: lives inside my laptop that makes it happen as far 1081 01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:50,440 Speaker 1: as I know. Yeah, I don't know how it works. 1082 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:53,280 Speaker 1: What's that Arthur C. Clark quote? Yeah, that's what we're 1083 01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:57,760 Speaker 1: just like. Uh, technology past a certain point is indistinguishable 1084 01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:01,480 Speaker 1: from magic. I'm paraphrasing. Only that comes up hardcore in 1085 01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:03,720 Speaker 1: the New Transformers movie. I think it's in the first 1086 01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 1: four movie too. Yeah. So there's this idea, right, But 1087 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:11,160 Speaker 1: then there are other human beings throughout history who have 1088 01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:15,360 Speaker 1: tried to make use of a more I don't want 1089 01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 1: to say conventional magic, but spell casting and actually writing 1090 01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:23,080 Speaker 1: things down and yeah, yeah, the focus your mind on 1091 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:27,160 Speaker 1: this one sort of subject or or outcome that you want, 1092 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:30,600 Speaker 1: and somehow you are making the universe respond to your 1093 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:34,920 Speaker 1: constant thought processes. Yeah. I used to buy into that 1094 01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 1: stuff too, but then it becomes how can I, possibly 1095 01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:42,280 Speaker 1: my little chemical thing going on in my brain have 1096 01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:46,120 Speaker 1: any influence whatsoever on the physical world around me? How 1097 01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:50,160 Speaker 1: unless I do so, Like, unless you're influencing yourself in 1098 01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:53,680 Speaker 1: some way. Yeah, unless it's like weaponized psychology, which is 1099 01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,120 Speaker 1: a phrase somebody use that I thought was I thought 1100 01:03:56,160 --> 01:04:00,400 Speaker 1: it was cool, um, but it's Yeah, it's true. There 1101 01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:02,960 Speaker 1: are certain things that no matter how much you focus 1102 01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:05,560 Speaker 1: your attention or whatever, how art in a fan of 1103 01:04:05,680 --> 01:04:09,880 Speaker 1: the secret you are, you can look Like hundreds of 1104 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 1: people got together in the sixties and tried to lift 1105 01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:16,880 Speaker 1: the White House with their minds. They's still on the ground, 1106 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:22,479 Speaker 1: you know, Okay, thank you, sorry about that. They should 1107 01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 1: have tried with like we tried to lift the bike first, Like, 1108 01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 1: let's start with a bicycle before we moved to the 1109 01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 1: White House, which is a giant building. It was people 1110 01:04:32,160 --> 01:04:35,600 Speaker 1: very heavy. So yeah, it has an extensive basement. I 1111 01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 1: was just gonna say, have a bowling alley in it. 1112 01:04:38,440 --> 01:04:40,120 Speaker 1: So maybe if we got a couple of hundred people 1113 01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:45,360 Speaker 1: and like a toddler's bike. Yeah, start a ping pong ball. 1114 01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:49,320 Speaker 1: Lift that up hundreds of people. We're gonna put it 1115 01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:50,560 Speaker 1: right in the middle of his field. You make a 1116 01:04:50,720 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 1: circle around it. Just lift this ping pong ball up. 1117 01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,360 Speaker 1: What do you guys do the next Saturday? Hopefully lifting 1118 01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:59,040 Speaker 1: a mind. I'd rather just play some ping pong and 1119 01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:01,360 Speaker 1: we just keep it simple. I think we can. I'm 1120 01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:02,960 Speaker 1: a basic. I think we're gonna do this all in 1121 01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:05,520 Speaker 1: one afternoon. We just have the multitask, you know what 1122 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:07,600 Speaker 1: I mean. We could take the ping pong balls from 1123 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:09,920 Speaker 1: the ping pong game that will satisfy me and then 1124 01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:12,680 Speaker 1: try to lift them with our minds. Or we could 1125 01:05:12,680 --> 01:05:15,080 Speaker 1: see if someone could try to like tilt the ping 1126 01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:19,840 Speaker 1: pong game in your favor. Yeah, you know, because that's 1127 01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:21,720 Speaker 1: what people would do if they had small amounts of 1128 01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 1: telekinesis right, you'd be in Vegas playing craps because you'd 1129 01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:27,160 Speaker 1: never loose. Don't you ever feel that urge though, just 1130 01:05:27,240 --> 01:05:29,160 Speaker 1: to like think real hard at something and make it 1131 01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:31,360 Speaker 1: do a thing. I try to do that all the time. 1132 01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:38,560 Speaker 1: It doesn't work, But like telenes is magic, essentially you 1133 01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:41,080 Speaker 1: know what I mean, We're all these words, all these 1134 01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:43,640 Speaker 1: you know, different things. It's all the same crap. It's 1135 01:05:43,680 --> 01:05:45,880 Speaker 1: just like you want something to happen that really can't, 1136 01:05:46,560 --> 01:05:49,840 Speaker 1: but so you're gonna make this thing called magic, make 1137 01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:52,560 Speaker 1: it work. They just haven't harnessed the strings yet in 1138 01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:56,880 Speaker 1: some cases. In some cases, practices that would have been 1139 01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:02,240 Speaker 1: considered magical in the modern day did use uh important results, 1140 01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:07,120 Speaker 1: like alchemists when their predecessors of chemists discovered a lot 1141 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,280 Speaker 1: of stuff. Some of it, it turned out, later came 1142 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:14,120 Speaker 1: back to bide us, like pesticides. But at the time 1143 01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:18,840 Speaker 1: that's amazing, And so I I can definitely see that 1144 01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:21,439 Speaker 1: edge of that. I have a proposition for you guys 1145 01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:25,120 Speaker 1: that ties into this a little bit. So. One of 1146 01:06:25,280 --> 01:06:28,920 Speaker 1: the big psychic powers, which I would also classify with magic, 1147 01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:32,800 Speaker 1: that people will typically talk about in fiction or sometimes 1148 01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:36,600 Speaker 1: claim the experience, is what's called psychometry, the idea that 1149 01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:40,400 Speaker 1: by touching a physical object, someone with this gift would 1150 01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:45,240 Speaker 1: somehow know what happened. Right, So like so like Lucky 1151 01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:50,160 Speaker 1: is like Lucky is like in somebody's kitchen and he 1152 01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:51,920 Speaker 1: picks up a knife and then he just all of 1153 01:06:51,960 --> 01:06:54,240 Speaker 1: a sudden knows that was used as a murder weapon, 1154 01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 1: and he's still gotta like hang out and be cool 1155 01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:59,400 Speaker 1: with whomever the killer is for a second. Right, that's 1156 01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:04,080 Speaker 1: how That's how it happens. But um now I think 1157 01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 1: it's it's plausible or well possible that we as a 1158 01:07:08,160 --> 01:07:12,000 Speaker 1: species could arrive at a situation where technology or the 1159 01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:14,440 Speaker 1: Internet of things, which that was used to be a 1160 01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:18,640 Speaker 1: really popular phrase, where it enables that kind of psychometry. Well, 1161 01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 1: there was a there was a product that came out 1162 01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:25,720 Speaker 1: and there are probably several of these called tile and 1163 01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:28,720 Speaker 1: all the idea. The idea was like people who lose things, 1164 01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:30,680 Speaker 1: and for a lot of people, this is a this 1165 01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:35,480 Speaker 1: is a convenient thing, and what it means is that 1166 01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:39,120 Speaker 1: you will never you'll not only will you never not 1167 01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:42,520 Speaker 1: know where an object that is tagged is, but eventually 1168 01:07:42,680 --> 01:07:45,959 Speaker 1: that same technology could get us to a point where 1169 01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:49,520 Speaker 1: you know, this cup also as a story that I 1170 01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:51,720 Speaker 1: can tell that you can pick up just by touching 1171 01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:54,960 Speaker 1: it and just running your phone over it. That's pretty interesting. 1172 01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:57,880 Speaker 1: But I like seeing the trees and what not that 1173 01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 1: it came from. Who knows what? From what am I 1174 01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:03,480 Speaker 1: going to get from my cup? Yeah? When it gets 1175 01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:06,640 Speaker 1: documented first, like if they put if there was a 1176 01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:08,480 Speaker 1: cup is not the best I mean, honestly, it's not 1177 01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:10,920 Speaker 1: the best example. But yeah, if they made the cup 1178 01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:14,120 Speaker 1: and then they tagged the cup with that held the cup, 1179 01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:17,680 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, done with the cup, right, right, that's what 1180 01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:21,160 Speaker 1: I mean. I think that's I think that's possible. But 1181 01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:24,640 Speaker 1: also I would ask if that ever happened, would you 1182 01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:27,040 Speaker 1: want that would you want to participate in that society? 1183 01:08:29,160 --> 01:08:31,920 Speaker 1: I mean, unless it's just another distraction to keep us 1184 01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:34,680 Speaker 1: from the horrors of us destroying ourselves. Any So, what's 1185 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:37,479 Speaker 1: the point of knowing your cups? The story? Yeah? Right, 1186 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, what's the point even how 1187 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:43,639 Speaker 1: it's just because we can do it? Like, yeah, that's 1188 01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 1: Historically that's something that we've often we've often said as 1189 01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:51,479 Speaker 1: as a life form, we've often been like, hey, you 1190 01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:54,920 Speaker 1: know this thing we could do. It's someone's like, oh, 1191 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:57,920 Speaker 1: like we can do that thing, like yeah, yeah, Like 1192 01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:00,479 Speaker 1: well let's go into the desert and blow up and out. Yeah, 1193 01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 1: let's go do it. Our curse right of humanity, Like 1194 01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:09,360 Speaker 1: we're fearless and curious at the same time. I don't 1195 01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:11,240 Speaker 1: care if it's going to wipe out a bunch of 1196 01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:14,599 Speaker 1: ourselves in order to find something. Man, if we think 1197 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:17,640 Speaker 1: of something, we're gonna have to do it, and I'm 1198 01:09:17,640 --> 01:09:19,760 Speaker 1: gonna stop until we do it. That's just the human 1199 01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:23,839 Speaker 1: way we can. Yeah. So, so you were into magic 1200 01:09:24,040 --> 01:09:29,360 Speaker 1: at some point or you just the idea of magic itself. Also, 1201 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:31,960 Speaker 1: because you know, every religion in the world is is 1202 01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:36,880 Speaker 1: based on the idea of giant magical being who you know, 1203 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:40,719 Speaker 1: has other magical henchmen that seem to no longer really 1204 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:42,840 Speaker 1: be working out there in the field. But it's all 1205 01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:44,840 Speaker 1: magic based, you know what I mean. And this is 1206 01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:48,280 Speaker 1: like it has such a grasp on humanity. The concept 1207 01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:51,280 Speaker 1: of magic, even though it's weird bringing up religions, is 1208 01:09:51,400 --> 01:09:55,679 Speaker 1: that when you introduce that word to somebody when discussing 1209 01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:57,680 Speaker 1: you know, I'm an atheist and so, but if I'm 1210 01:09:57,680 --> 01:09:59,960 Speaker 1: discussing somebody who has a religious background like my parents, 1211 01:10:00,200 --> 01:10:03,000 Speaker 1: Let's say, if you bring up the word magic, they 1212 01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:05,880 Speaker 1: flip out. But then when you explained, but here's what 1213 01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:10,360 Speaker 1: you're saying, and there's no other way to describe what 1214 01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:15,040 Speaker 1: you're saying other than using magic, which is ironic considering 1215 01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:17,800 Speaker 1: that a lot of hardcore Christians think any magic that 1216 01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:21,680 Speaker 1: doesn't isn't involved in their religion is evil and witchcraft 1217 01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:29,920 Speaker 1: or satanic someone like that. Oh my god, that its work. 1218 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 1: And it's not just Christianity to conte. Yeah, and I mean, 1219 01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:38,320 Speaker 1: and it goes to humans being just very tribal and 1220 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:40,880 Speaker 1: we've got to have our group is the right group 1221 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:44,360 Speaker 1: and not your group. Let's wipe each other out so 1222 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:47,040 Speaker 1: that our ideas are the ones that survived, and it's 1223 01:10:47,040 --> 01:10:50,439 Speaker 1: a zero sum game. Yeah, I'm so jealous of you. 1224 01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:54,560 Speaker 1: Haven't been able to see saw Ricky Gervais debate or 1225 01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:58,679 Speaker 1: defend his atheism to Stephen Colbert, who is a devout Catholic, 1226 01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:01,160 Speaker 1: and he had the couples line. It was like, I 1227 01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:04,560 Speaker 1: believe in one less god than you. Yeah. It's like 1228 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 1: there's what three thousand gods in the working canon of 1229 01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:11,439 Speaker 1: humanity right now. I just don't believe in one more 1230 01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:15,200 Speaker 1: than you. Yeah, you don't believe in two thousand ns. 1231 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:17,599 Speaker 1: I just believe don't believe in three thousand of them. 1232 01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:22,120 Speaker 1: And thought point, it's great, you know, you know, if 1233 01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:23,800 Speaker 1: we want to get into religion, I don't know how 1234 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:28,360 Speaker 1: many cards and letters, but we just at this point 1235 01:11:28,400 --> 01:11:31,160 Speaker 1: would like to remind everyone we will never tell you 1236 01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:35,240 Speaker 1: what to believe, No, no, what gets you through your day, great, 1237 01:11:35,360 --> 01:11:37,120 Speaker 1: just as long as it's not causing you to do 1238 01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:39,000 Speaker 1: harm upon others. That's the way I see it. I 1239 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:40,920 Speaker 1: think we can all agree with that. If you think 1240 01:11:40,920 --> 01:11:43,360 Speaker 1: gets through your day and you all your beliefs and 1241 01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:48,439 Speaker 1: you rocket man do it, go for it. Happy for you. Um, 1242 01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:52,120 Speaker 1: But you know, I don't think that. Well, I don't 1243 01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:54,560 Speaker 1: think you know, I don't think they're I'm not a 1244 01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:58,400 Speaker 1: big believer personally in proselytizing, so I don't. I don't 1245 01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:04,040 Speaker 1: think it's we say it on the show because it's 1246 01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:06,439 Speaker 1: something that we practice in our real lives. We're not 1247 01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:08,840 Speaker 1: going to go out and tell people what to think 1248 01:12:09,040 --> 01:12:12,120 Speaker 1: or what to do now, but it's okay to say, uh, 1249 01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:14,800 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not going to tell you not to 1250 01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:18,880 Speaker 1: attempt to launch yourself out of a cannon without training, 1251 01:12:19,560 --> 01:12:21,800 Speaker 1: but say, well, you should know, the odds of you 1252 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:25,840 Speaker 1: being injured or are much higher than the odds of you, 1253 01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:28,920 Speaker 1: you know, pulling off this cool trick. I mean, the 1254 01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:31,120 Speaker 1: person you're trying to impress might date you, but they'll 1255 01:12:31,120 --> 01:12:32,880 Speaker 1: be dating you in the burn ward for a while. 1256 01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:35,880 Speaker 1: Best case scenario. I think that's I mean, I think 1257 01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:39,400 Speaker 1: that's absolutely funny. I appreciate you said. Whatever it takes 1258 01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:43,200 Speaker 1: to get you through your day. Um, so whatever gets 1259 01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 1: you through your day. We know that we live in 1260 01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 1: in the West, at least an increasingly secularizing society, right 1261 01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:57,120 Speaker 1: and uh, we also know that people are shedding some 1262 01:12:57,280 --> 01:13:01,559 Speaker 1: of the old taboos that once existed. Social taboos, I mean, right, 1263 01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:06,920 Speaker 1: and one of the biggest cases of stuff they don't 1264 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:09,880 Speaker 1: want you to know that we get. Since this show 1265 01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 1: began the people asking us about marijuana legalization, specifically cannabis 1266 01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:21,360 Speaker 1: and hemp. H Yeah, we found a various different and 1267 01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:26,240 Speaker 1: surprising historical anecdotes. You know, marijuana was not the always 1268 01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:31,639 Speaker 1: the villain that it became, you know, so we wanted 1269 01:13:31,680 --> 01:13:34,240 Speaker 1: to ask, you know, what do you think about the 1270 01:13:34,479 --> 01:13:38,720 Speaker 1: current movement, which is state by state. Um, I'm kind 1271 01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:40,920 Speaker 1: of contradicting the federal government stance. So do you think 1272 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:45,599 Speaker 1: about the current movement towards legalization? Because I'm a huge pothead. Still, 1273 01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:47,680 Speaker 1: what do you mean still? You said it was in 1274 01:13:47,720 --> 01:13:50,920 Speaker 1: your twenties. Uh, no, that was my old drinking days. 1275 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:53,519 Speaker 1: And well in my twenties I did I left I 1276 01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:56,920 Speaker 1: left pot for a while. Uh. And I became a 1277 01:13:57,360 --> 01:14:00,680 Speaker 1: real good drunk, uh fun draw though I never got 1278 01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:04,160 Speaker 1: bad or anything like that, but I could eventually, i'llcohol 1279 01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:07,920 Speaker 1: turned on me. Uh and I turned back to Pott 1280 01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:10,400 Speaker 1: and I went, you know, I was, I'm like I 1281 01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:13,759 Speaker 1: with like many artists, I got a lot of neurotic 1282 01:14:13,800 --> 01:14:17,559 Speaker 1: hangups and such, and uh my entire life, I've always 1283 01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:20,599 Speaker 1: you know, been a panicky type. And I was taking 1284 01:14:20,720 --> 01:14:23,840 Speaker 1: Paxel and all kinds of everything all day long, you know, 1285 01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:25,760 Speaker 1: having a pop pills every day just to keep me 1286 01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:28,920 Speaker 1: grounded and man. Then we came back into my life 1287 01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 1: and completely changed the game for me, Like I just 1288 01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:35,240 Speaker 1: put me at ease with things I had never been 1289 01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:38,000 Speaker 1: at ease out before. Gave me perspective on things that 1290 01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:40,760 Speaker 1: and you know it, and it was different than it 1291 01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:43,479 Speaker 1: was in my twenties, my experience with pot in the twenties, 1292 01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:45,639 Speaker 1: which was you know, I mean, I mean my twenties. 1293 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:47,800 Speaker 1: So I'm just looking at party, party, party, party, party, 1294 01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 1: as opposed to this thing that I'm discovering. Like, not 1295 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:55,000 Speaker 1: only does it open me up to uh talk more 1296 01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:58,599 Speaker 1: about ideas and see things from a different perspective than 1297 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:01,439 Speaker 1: I had before. I think maybe age has something to 1298 01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:05,519 Speaker 1: do with that too, but um it also I don't 1299 01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:08,519 Speaker 1: have to pop Paxel every day anymore because this has 1300 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:13,519 Speaker 1: completely like mellowed out my whole panicky situation that I 1301 01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:15,760 Speaker 1: was always in the middle of into like being able 1302 01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:18,680 Speaker 1: to cope with things on a much more adult and 1303 01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:20,840 Speaker 1: responsible level than I had been, which I was just 1304 01:15:20,960 --> 01:15:25,160 Speaker 1: reactionary before. And we've done episodes on Big Pharma and 1305 01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:29,760 Speaker 1: obviously pretty significant and it just about anybody just observing 1306 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:36,439 Speaker 1: could argue roadblock too wide scale large scale legalization is well, 1307 01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:42,200 Speaker 1: that's the whole and that's exactly correct. The problem with 1308 01:15:42,360 --> 01:15:45,799 Speaker 1: POTT is is that it's too perfect and it grows 1309 01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:50,599 Speaker 1: wild and uh, giant corporations can't control that so much. 1310 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:54,439 Speaker 1: And this is again goes back to the Mars trade. 1311 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:58,920 Speaker 1: Throw capitalism up there, because it's just gonna destroy itself 1312 01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,760 Speaker 1: really fast. Like if as soon as you through the 1313 01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:03,680 Speaker 1: idea of like who's going to make more money up 1314 01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:07,160 Speaker 1: here than it just ruins everything. Like, so yeah, I'm 1315 01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:09,320 Speaker 1: all for a pot. Uh you know, I also want 1316 01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:12,560 Speaker 1: to keep uh you know, the big corporations out of 1317 01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:17,160 Speaker 1: it because it is a crop and you know, so 1318 01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:20,519 Speaker 1: here's the thing, Lucky do you live in Atlanta? I do. 1319 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:25,840 Speaker 1: I do, And I smoke pot every day, okay, which 1320 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:30,000 Speaker 1: is illegal and this thing, but you think that that 1321 01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:33,080 Speaker 1: is what makes it hard to get ahold of. That's 1322 01:16:33,160 --> 01:16:37,320 Speaker 1: the other thing is that Look, every other state, including mine, 1323 01:16:37,360 --> 01:16:41,439 Speaker 1: own every state that doesn't have legality. It's out there 1324 01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:44,040 Speaker 1: and it's the easiest thing in the world. It's easier 1325 01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:45,400 Speaker 1: for me to buy weed than it is for me 1326 01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:47,640 Speaker 1: to buy alcohol. And I'm fifty years old, you know 1327 01:16:47,680 --> 01:16:49,680 Speaker 1: what I mean. Like, I got a hundred guys that 1328 01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:51,519 Speaker 1: I know that I can get some weed off of 1329 01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:55,920 Speaker 1: drive to a liquor store and to know where one 1330 01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:59,720 Speaker 1: of those is, and guys that will deliver marijuana to me. 1331 01:17:00,479 --> 01:17:03,479 Speaker 1: It's true. Alcohol delivery isn't a thing. Yeah, not yet. 1332 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:07,240 Speaker 1: They're probably working on it. But it's weird because it's 1333 01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:10,200 Speaker 1: it ties into some of the blue law things right where, 1334 01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:12,760 Speaker 1: and those are especially common in the South. We used 1335 01:17:12,800 --> 01:17:14,920 Speaker 1: to talk about, well, we was talking about the case 1336 01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:20,800 Speaker 1: for legalization, whether it's decriminalization or full recreational legalization. When 1337 01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:26,400 Speaker 1: Colorado UH massively boosted their tax revenue and the state 1338 01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:32,519 Speaker 1: ran out of weed to sell. Nevada is currently just 1339 01:17:32,960 --> 01:17:35,840 Speaker 1: this month became like they opened up their dispensaries and 1340 01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:40,360 Speaker 1: they're out of pot. Because it became so everybody smoking 1341 01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:44,120 Speaker 1: weed except the guys in the big offices that are 1342 01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:46,519 Speaker 1: telling us not the smoke weed. Well, they might be 1343 01:17:46,600 --> 01:17:50,280 Speaker 1: smoken too. What what's that old line about prohibitions, like, uh, 1344 01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:53,439 Speaker 1: people will vote for prohibition as long as they can 1345 01:17:53,479 --> 01:17:58,360 Speaker 1: still stumble to the polly. Admission does nothing but create crime. 1346 01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:01,400 Speaker 1: That's where the crime comes in, is the prohibition. As 1347 01:18:01,439 --> 01:18:04,679 Speaker 1: soon as it's legalized and regulated, then there's no problem anymore. 1348 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:08,040 Speaker 1: It certainly feels like we're on the road to decriminalize, 1349 01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:10,080 Speaker 1: at least in a lot of places. I think the 1350 01:18:10,160 --> 01:18:14,479 Speaker 1: country is gladly walk to a dispensary and pay more 1351 01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:17,240 Speaker 1: than I currently pay on the black market, knowing that 1352 01:18:17,560 --> 01:18:19,599 Speaker 1: the more that I'm paying is going to fund better 1353 01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:23,720 Speaker 1: schools for my state? Are you kidding me? Absolutely? Throw 1354 01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:26,520 Speaker 1: in on that. Look at the numbers, though, it's absurd 1355 01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:29,000 Speaker 1: how much money it makes, yea. And when it's using 1356 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:32,200 Speaker 1: you know it's done in these more progressive states they 1357 01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:35,840 Speaker 1: use it. Well, it's like you can pay for infrastructure. 1358 01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:39,479 Speaker 1: Already doing that in Georgia with the lottery, which is 1359 01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:44,080 Speaker 1: just legalized gambling. Uh. You know, we won't call it 1360 01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:47,599 Speaker 1: that ever, because we're not a gamble state. But that's 1361 01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:49,800 Speaker 1: all that is. And every way it goes to our 1362 01:18:49,920 --> 01:18:56,479 Speaker 1: schools and in theory scholarships and such. Yea a little bit, 1363 01:18:57,240 --> 01:19:02,240 Speaker 1: but so good again, good good chance to start afresh 1364 01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:06,840 Speaker 1: with marijuana legalization and like then you past legislation that 1365 01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:09,920 Speaker 1: earmarks that product and it has to go there or else. 1366 01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:13,240 Speaker 1: This whole thing is done. What's really standing in the way, though, 1367 01:19:13,280 --> 01:19:15,439 Speaker 1: obviously politicians are a big part of it. You've got 1368 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 1: the old generation of fear. There's a lot of fear 1369 01:19:18,280 --> 01:19:20,120 Speaker 1: from because you know a lot of people, that's the 1370 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:26,559 Speaker 1: fear about losing their their influence. And I think it's 1371 01:19:26,640 --> 01:19:29,920 Speaker 1: a voter base, right, It's the type of thing that uh, 1372 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:33,200 Speaker 1: you know, my parents I don't think would ever vote 1373 01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:35,760 Speaker 1: for legalization, even though they have two sons that are 1374 01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:41,280 Speaker 1: chronic marijuana smokers. Uh and uh. I think it's because 1375 01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:45,360 Speaker 1: they were adults during the Nixon years when he convinced 1376 01:19:45,400 --> 01:19:49,479 Speaker 1: them what an awful, terrible thing this was, and that's 1377 01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:51,439 Speaker 1: what they still have in their mind. The myth is 1378 01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:55,680 Speaker 1: still very much alive of what marijuana is. And you 1379 01:19:55,760 --> 01:19:57,880 Speaker 1: know it's a boogeyman that like, oh, they're gonna start 1380 01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:02,320 Speaker 1: doing other joints like madness saying zero zero want to 1381 01:20:02,479 --> 01:20:07,400 Speaker 1: do cocaine, LSD any of the other drugs. Just being 1382 01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:10,800 Speaker 1: and I'm a huge pophead, but I'm a huge pope 1383 01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:13,120 Speaker 1: because I love pot. That doesn't make me want to 1384 01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:16,559 Speaker 1: do like let's throw my body into another weird state 1385 01:20:16,680 --> 01:20:18,680 Speaker 1: that I might not be able to control. I know 1386 01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:20,880 Speaker 1: how I am on weed, and I'm the best me 1387 01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:24,280 Speaker 1: when I'm on weed. Uh, but like if I get 1388 01:20:24,320 --> 01:20:27,479 Speaker 1: on LSD, God knows what's gonna happen. I don't want 1389 01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:30,760 Speaker 1: to go down that road. That's that's the thing. It 1390 01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:32,880 Speaker 1: reminds me of the little p s a s where 1391 01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:36,000 Speaker 1: someone's like where someone talks to their their drug dealer 1392 01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:39,639 Speaker 1: and hey, do you have any marijuana? Like, no, I'm 1393 01:20:39,680 --> 01:20:43,080 Speaker 1: out of marijuana. Try this heroin. No one would ever 1394 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:46,479 Speaker 1: do that. No one's ever, no one's ever. God, Well, 1395 01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:51,400 Speaker 1: it is a drug. Well it goes back far than that. 1396 01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:57,519 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, back in my drinking days. Uh, 1397 01:20:58,160 --> 01:21:00,439 Speaker 1: drinking makes you want to fight, and it makes you 1398 01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:04,080 Speaker 1: want to argue, and then it also loosens your inhibitions 1399 01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:06,760 Speaker 1: enough that you want to start throwing punches. I have never, 1400 01:21:07,439 --> 01:21:11,120 Speaker 1: not once while being high on the marijuana, have ever 1401 01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:15,519 Speaker 1: wanted to do anything but sit down and discuss normally 1402 01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:19,759 Speaker 1: cool topics. Uh. It never wanted to throw a punch. 1403 01:21:20,240 --> 01:21:23,240 Speaker 1: It never made me want to go do something stupid 1404 01:21:23,520 --> 01:21:25,839 Speaker 1: that I wouldn't have done had I not been stoned. 1405 01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:28,519 Speaker 1: But that's all alcohol does is it makes you do 1406 01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:31,400 Speaker 1: the dumbest crap and gets you into nothing but trouble. 1407 01:21:31,439 --> 01:21:34,599 Speaker 1: Plus you feel like crap the next day. And man, 1408 01:21:34,680 --> 01:21:37,920 Speaker 1: there's no such thing as a weed hangover because I've 1409 01:21:37,960 --> 01:21:41,200 Speaker 1: pushed it to the limits and I've never woken up 1410 01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:46,160 Speaker 1: the next day going, oh man, I'll tell you what. 1411 01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:49,000 Speaker 1: I'm turning thirty four pretty soon. And I had just 1412 01:21:49,360 --> 01:21:51,679 Speaker 1: a little bit to drink the other day. Yeah, nightmare. 1413 01:21:53,360 --> 01:21:56,240 Speaker 1: And that's why I stopped drinking, is that I my 1414 01:21:56,439 --> 01:22:00,840 Speaker 1: love of alcohol did not end. Alcohols low of meat ended. 1415 01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 1: It became a one way relationship instead of a two way. 1416 01:22:04,840 --> 01:22:07,880 Speaker 1: And I know what, I'm not wanted anymore. So I 1417 01:22:09,040 --> 01:22:12,160 Speaker 1: took my belongings out of the Sweet Lady Boost's apartment 1418 01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:15,600 Speaker 1: and h there was Mary Jane waiting for me on 1419 01:22:15,680 --> 01:22:19,640 Speaker 1: the street. Corner, oh Man, serial monogamous took me right 1420 01:22:19,680 --> 01:22:24,000 Speaker 1: into green embrace, and I shall never go back. Well, 1421 01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:27,960 Speaker 1: what one thing I'm finding interesting about these conversations is 1422 01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:30,479 Speaker 1: that more and more people seem to be regardless of 1423 01:22:30,479 --> 01:22:33,559 Speaker 1: whether or not they personally use weed in any form, 1424 01:22:33,680 --> 01:22:37,360 Speaker 1: you know, uh, typically, more and more people seemed to 1425 01:22:37,439 --> 01:22:41,640 Speaker 1: be saying, well, what's the big what's the big deal? Like, 1426 01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:46,400 Speaker 1: when's the last time that a crime related to the 1427 01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:49,280 Speaker 1: nature of this substance, not to the low rounding it, 1428 01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:51,519 Speaker 1: but to the inherent nature of the substance. When's the 1429 01:22:51,600 --> 01:22:55,639 Speaker 1: last time that caused a crime? Everybody currently in our 1430 01:22:55,760 --> 01:22:58,920 Speaker 1: societists to say, the United States, everybody who wants to 1431 01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:02,439 Speaker 1: smoke weed right now is already smoking weed. It's there's 1432 01:23:02,479 --> 01:23:06,479 Speaker 1: not the illegality of it isn't stopping anybody, because it's 1433 01:23:06,560 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 1: so easy to get. And the problem is is now 1434 01:23:10,760 --> 01:23:13,479 Speaker 1: it's so easy to get that if high schoolers want 1435 01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:15,960 Speaker 1: to smoke weed, they can go get it. If it's 1436 01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:19,200 Speaker 1: made legal and regulated, suddenly that becomes a little more 1437 01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:21,200 Speaker 1: difficult because then they got to get a guy to 1438 01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:23,559 Speaker 1: go into a store to pick some up and then 1439 01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:27,320 Speaker 1: give that back to the kid on the outside and weird. 1440 01:23:27,960 --> 01:23:29,800 Speaker 1: It's like, you know, hanging out the side the seven 1441 01:23:29,840 --> 01:23:31,439 Speaker 1: eleven trying to get some older guy to buy you 1442 01:23:31,439 --> 01:23:34,240 Speaker 1: a beer. Like, it's just gonna mess up at some point, 1443 01:23:34,600 --> 01:23:36,360 Speaker 1: but it's not going to knock the black market out 1444 01:23:36,479 --> 01:23:39,439 Speaker 1: entire it won't, but it'll put a good step in 1445 01:23:39,520 --> 01:23:42,000 Speaker 1: there in the middle. It's gonna up your game. It's 1446 01:23:42,040 --> 01:23:46,080 Speaker 1: weird to think about. If it does become legal, imagine 1447 01:23:46,160 --> 01:23:50,040 Speaker 1: buying bootleg alcohol off of somebody like on the street. 1448 01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:52,360 Speaker 1: You could you could just go into a liquor store 1449 01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:54,280 Speaker 1: and get some alcohol. Or there's a guy that you 1450 01:23:54,360 --> 01:23:58,479 Speaker 1: know that has some, but he calls it jin still 1451 01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:01,840 Speaker 1: guys running a step fast Jimmy with the Still that 1452 01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:04,840 Speaker 1: is really interesting. I wonder how that that would affect 1453 01:24:04,880 --> 01:24:07,559 Speaker 1: the black market. Well, that's still that still does happen 1454 01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:11,920 Speaker 1: because this would be heavily taxed. And so even after prohibition, 1455 01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:15,320 Speaker 1: there were people who kept like corn mash stills, We're 1456 01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:18,080 Speaker 1: going all the way back around, uh, corn mash stills 1457 01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:22,160 Speaker 1: to um to avoid pain. Any kind of tax exactly 1458 01:24:22,560 --> 01:24:25,920 Speaker 1: will still happen where people will be growing. And so 1459 01:24:26,280 --> 01:24:28,679 Speaker 1: let's say it's legal, and then then it becomes like, well, 1460 01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:31,280 Speaker 1: where is your farming license in order farm this? Now 1461 01:24:31,360 --> 01:24:33,960 Speaker 1: it's a crop. You can't sell corn to people on 1462 01:24:34,040 --> 01:24:37,960 Speaker 1: the street just from your growing in your backyard technically, Uh, 1463 01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:40,240 Speaker 1: you know, we you shouldn't be able to grow this 1464 01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:42,640 Speaker 1: other crop because we don't know what you're doing with it, 1465 01:24:42,800 --> 01:24:45,640 Speaker 1: and it's a regulated thing. People are always going to 1466 01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:48,320 Speaker 1: grow their own, uh you know, that's they we have 1467 01:24:48,560 --> 01:24:51,800 Speaker 1: to now out of necessity. So that's you know, and 1468 01:24:51,840 --> 01:24:54,160 Speaker 1: there's a huge industry and grow your own, you know 1469 01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:56,160 Speaker 1: what I mean, hydroponic kits and all that kind of stuff. 1470 01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:58,240 Speaker 1: A huge industry and time. But the only thing we're 1471 01:24:58,240 --> 01:25:00,320 Speaker 1: not allowed to do is put a seed in ground 1472 01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:03,439 Speaker 1: and wait for it to grow up into a grow 1473 01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:05,200 Speaker 1: and then take a flower off and put it in 1474 01:25:05,280 --> 01:25:07,760 Speaker 1: our body. That it's always weird of me at you. 1475 01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:10,960 Speaker 1: It's like you've got these like research chemicals they call them, 1476 01:25:11,040 --> 01:25:13,960 Speaker 1: like lab chemicals that are legal for a time because 1477 01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:15,800 Speaker 1: they're so new. Right, Like let's talk about like the 1478 01:25:15,840 --> 01:25:18,519 Speaker 1: bath salt's epidemic, remember that where it like you know 1479 01:25:18,600 --> 01:25:20,840 Speaker 1: that some of that was debunked, but it was like 1480 01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:24,600 Speaker 1: a really potent like amphetamine more or less that was 1481 01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:29,600 Speaker 1: causing people to do pretty crazy violent stuff and like 1482 01:25:29,920 --> 01:25:34,640 Speaker 1: total dissociative properties, right, But again that's stuff. It was 1483 01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:37,120 Speaker 1: legal when they were doing it, and then you know, 1484 01:25:37,280 --> 01:25:39,599 Speaker 1: and then the d A catches up, figures it out, 1485 01:25:40,040 --> 01:25:42,880 Speaker 1: makes it illegal. But things are moving so fast with 1486 01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:45,160 Speaker 1: like sign researchers that kind of come up with these 1487 01:25:45,200 --> 01:25:48,719 Speaker 1: byproducts from whatever they're doing, I guess, and then someone 1488 01:25:49,720 --> 01:25:51,400 Speaker 1: figures out they can market it as some kind of 1489 01:25:51,520 --> 01:25:53,880 Speaker 1: like a quick high or design or drug. Yeah, look 1490 01:25:53,920 --> 01:26:00,280 Speaker 1: at the opioids has people hooked on basically a win 1491 01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:03,000 Speaker 1: in the form of a pill that came to them 1492 01:26:03,120 --> 01:26:05,720 Speaker 1: in you know, as a pain pill to deal with 1493 01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:09,840 Speaker 1: their pain, and didn't do it for under like downplaying 1494 01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:14,280 Speaker 1: it two doctors, Like literally the corporations are saying to doctors, 1495 01:26:14,640 --> 01:26:18,080 Speaker 1: that's fine, it's fine, pass it out. It's perfectly legal. 1496 01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:21,439 Speaker 1: Yet if you grow that completely just grows wild. We 1497 01:26:21,560 --> 01:26:23,519 Speaker 1: never did anything to it, I mean that we have now, 1498 01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:27,840 Speaker 1: but then we've just made other pretty flowers that have 1499 01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:32,200 Speaker 1: crazier effects than they used to. But I have a 1500 01:26:32,600 --> 01:26:38,600 Speaker 1: have too fun facts about marijuana. One, in Bhutan, the 1501 01:26:39,000 --> 01:26:42,679 Speaker 1: very small Himalayan kingdom, it grows wild in the ditches 1502 01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:46,040 Speaker 1: and it's it's legal if the people want to smoke it, 1503 01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:48,400 Speaker 1: but they don't. They feed it to the pigs, so 1504 01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:51,360 Speaker 1: it may have the most relaxed pigs on the planet. 1505 01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:55,559 Speaker 1: Their their pork is probably delicious. It's like, oh my god, 1506 01:26:55,720 --> 01:26:58,800 Speaker 1: the big is so not traumatized by any of its life. 1507 01:26:58,840 --> 01:27:01,160 Speaker 1: This is the most amazing orc burrito I've ever had. 1508 01:27:03,120 --> 01:27:06,519 Speaker 1: And the second one is it apparently U marijuana is 1509 01:27:07,000 --> 01:27:11,680 Speaker 1: technically legal in North Korea, which wouldn't expect from such 1510 01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:16,000 Speaker 1: a totalitarian regime. But apparently that's the one that's I 1511 01:27:16,040 --> 01:27:18,839 Speaker 1: don't know what kind of day, you know, Kim Millsung 1512 01:27:18,920 --> 01:27:22,120 Speaker 1: and Kim Jong when was having when somebody came to 1513 01:27:22,240 --> 01:27:24,520 Speaker 1: him and maybe it was like later in the afternoon 1514 01:27:24,640 --> 01:27:27,559 Speaker 1: on a Friday and they're like, hey, uh so we've 1515 01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:30,160 Speaker 1: we've got that, we shot the people they want to shot, 1516 01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:33,720 Speaker 1: and where are we at with the weed? And he's like, 1517 01:27:33,960 --> 01:27:36,519 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, just letting him smoke, let's do it? 1518 01:27:37,400 --> 01:27:39,519 Speaker 1: Is it on? Is it on their list of grasses 1519 01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:44,040 Speaker 1: that the citizens are they suggest the citizens that they 1520 01:27:44,080 --> 01:27:46,360 Speaker 1: eat because there's no food. Oh, that's a great question. 1521 01:27:46,439 --> 01:27:48,679 Speaker 1: I do not know. And it is it is said 1522 01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:53,200 Speaker 1: that that is U. There is a Yeah, what a 1523 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:56,880 Speaker 1: what a great country? That is we being legal or not? 1524 01:27:58,400 --> 01:28:03,880 Speaker 1: But even even the DPR cave in North Korea don't 1525 01:28:03,920 --> 01:28:07,160 Speaker 1: let you? Yeah I said that, So Jim Jong ill 1526 01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:10,320 Speaker 1: let you do it? Yeah? Why can't we? And so 1527 01:28:10,680 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 1: you know that dude's smoking. Look at that haircut? Wild 1528 01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:19,759 Speaker 1: and yeah, I'm sure that what's his name? The basket 1529 01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:23,160 Speaker 1: of tennis? Oh yeah, it isn't just showing up with 1530 01:28:23,240 --> 01:28:31,439 Speaker 1: autographed photographs. I'm sweetweed. Come on, man, at least seeds. 1531 01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:36,400 Speaker 1: So we see again what's happening is that legislation is 1532 01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:41,439 Speaker 1: typically outpaced by social evolution and technology. So is this 1533 01:28:41,760 --> 01:28:44,559 Speaker 1: an artifact a at different time these sorts of laws? 1534 01:28:44,840 --> 01:28:46,960 Speaker 1: And if so, what is what is the future? What? 1535 01:28:47,160 --> 01:28:49,240 Speaker 1: What do you guys think? Is is it eventually going 1536 01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:52,000 Speaker 1: to be nation wide? I think it will, and it's 1537 01:28:52,160 --> 01:28:54,280 Speaker 1: gonna be like everything, It's going to be the dollars 1538 01:28:54,439 --> 01:28:56,840 Speaker 1: that speak the loudest, right, they're going to realize that, 1539 01:28:56,920 --> 01:28:58,840 Speaker 1: Oh my god, look at the tax revenue we can 1540 01:28:58,880 --> 01:29:01,800 Speaker 1: get if we just realize this damn plant that has 1541 01:29:01,920 --> 01:29:04,240 Speaker 1: never been a problem. And they all smoke it anyway 1542 01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:07,439 Speaker 1: in Washington. So that looking the d C, it's it's 1543 01:29:07,560 --> 01:29:13,760 Speaker 1: legal in a very city that makes the laws, and 1544 01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:19,240 Speaker 1: there's no problems. We're not experiencing gang violence because of 1545 01:29:19,360 --> 01:29:24,479 Speaker 1: pot those maniacs. Yeah. So you know, it's a so 1546 01:29:24,600 --> 01:29:27,200 Speaker 1: this breed of you know, the old Nixon era and 1547 01:29:27,280 --> 01:29:29,960 Speaker 1: everything just they just have to die out or at 1548 01:29:29,960 --> 01:29:32,160 Speaker 1: the time of them dying out. Now, if humanity can 1549 01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:34,240 Speaker 1: make it past this next three and a half years, 1550 01:29:35,320 --> 01:29:38,240 Speaker 1: uh to where we'll be a more enlightened creature, hopefully 1551 01:29:38,320 --> 01:29:40,840 Speaker 1: on the other side, and then maybe it'll all drop. 1552 01:29:41,160 --> 01:29:43,519 Speaker 1: I really thought that that was should have been not 1553 01:29:43,640 --> 01:29:46,000 Speaker 1: to get into politics, but that should have been Obama's 1554 01:29:46,040 --> 01:29:49,720 Speaker 1: final thing. It's just going like it's legal and I'm 1555 01:29:49,760 --> 01:29:53,280 Speaker 1: out of here so I can go puppa dube and Hawaii. Yeah. 1556 01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:58,080 Speaker 1: Because typically regardless, yeah, regardless of their specific ideology. That 1557 01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 1: is the part where whoever the president at the very end, 1558 01:30:01,600 --> 01:30:05,720 Speaker 1: they're like, I'm gonna pardon everybody. We're popping bottles. You 1559 01:30:05,800 --> 01:30:07,600 Speaker 1: know what's legal now if you want to touch a 1560 01:30:07,640 --> 01:30:12,479 Speaker 1: buffalo inappropriately, go for it. Amount It would be like 1561 01:30:12,640 --> 01:30:17,160 Speaker 1: three guys like they're like, you know, I didn't like 1562 01:30:17,320 --> 01:30:20,320 Speaker 1: him the first the first three years and eleven months, 1563 01:30:20,360 --> 01:30:23,320 Speaker 1: but he really came through on that buffalo front.
