1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,960
Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda gem Nason.

2
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 2: In nineteen ninety nine, David Bowie was interviewed by Jeremy Paxman,

3
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 2: who is a very prestigious UK journal He was asked

4
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 2: about a whole lot of things, and this was in

5
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety nine. One of the things that freaked people

6
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 2: out was that he seemed to predict the predicament we'd

7
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,080
Speaker 2: be in with the Internet. Here's a snippet of it.

8
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 1: I don't think we've even seen the tip of the iceberg.

9
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 1: I think the potential of what the Internet is going

10
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 1: to do to society, both good and bad, is unimaginable.

11
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 3: It's just a tool, though, isn't it.

12
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: No, it's not. I'm talking about that. The actual context

13
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: and the state of content is going to be so

14
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: different to anything that we can really envisage at the moment.

15
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 2: David Bowie, you're right visionary. Well, fast forward to recent

16
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: times when a comedian called Michael Spicer has dressed up

17
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 2: to look like David Bowie and he's put himself into

18
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 2: that interview with Jeremy Paxman. So this is his version

19
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 2: of the same interview.

20
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 3: I don't think we've even seen the tip of the Iceberger.

21
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 3: I think that the potential of what the Internet is

22
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 3: going to do to society, both good and bad, is unimaginable.

23
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 3: It's just a tool, though, isn't it. No, It's more

24
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 3: than that. For instance, I think in the future we'll

25
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 3: be wasting hours and hours of our lives just watching

26
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:34,119
Speaker 3: videos of cats and dogs being adorable, and we'll share

27
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 3: those videos with our friends, and most importantly, we'll be

28
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 3: able to access all of this on our phone. So

29
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 3: when we go to bed, we'll take our phone with us.

30
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 3: When we go to the toilet, we'll take our phone

31
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 3: with us. When we come out of the shower, we'll

32
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 3: grab our phone to see if we missed anything. And

33
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 3: we won't dry ourselves with a towel anymore. We'll just

34
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 3: sit on the edge of our beds, just dripping wet,

35
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 3: scrolling on our phones, just scrolling, because the scrolling never ends.

36
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,679
Speaker 3: He just keep scrolling, just keep strolling.

37
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 2: My favorite bit of this entire story, though, is that

38
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: people have believed this. They think he's either David Bowie

39
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 2: or they think it's Bob Geldof, and someone else has said, here,

40
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 2: isn't that Mick Jagger? And this video Michael Spice's version

41
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 2: has done the rounds with people talking about it's jaw dropping.

42
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: Wow.

43
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: I've always thought the late great David Bowie was a visionary,

44
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 2: but this clip shows he's a prophet of the new

45
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 2: Dark Age. Someone else here has said, holy crap, Bob

46
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 2: Geldoff in nineteen ninety nine, it's incredible, how did he know?

47
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 2: And someone here has said Bob Geldof's reaction at the

48
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 2: end is a large indication he was privy to previous

49
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 2: conversations with elites associated with the wir for whatever that is.

50
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 2: And then if various plans were the fourth Reich cookers,

51
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 2: oh good, that person is janned from down Under. And

52
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 2: the comedian of himself has said, can someone looking on

53
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: jad is chad? Okay? So good? I know?

54
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: And who he hasn't left a wet patch on their bed?

55
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 2: Quite right? And sometimes after the shower Brendan
