  The Joe Rogan Experience.

• 0:12Speaker 01

  Hey, yeah, I just, I just, hey, what's up, Joe?

• 0:15Speaker 02

  What's up, Brian?

• 0:18Speaker 01

  Here to promote the new special?

• 0:19Speaker 02

  That's right.

• 0:20Speaker 01

  Oh, the old special?

• 0:21Speaker 02

  The old special that is now available on YouTube as well.

• 0:23Speaker 01

  Now available on YouTube, live from the mothership.

• 0:25Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 0:26Speaker 01

  At the mothership.

• 0:27Speaker 02

  And that has one of my all time favorite bits in it.

• 0:29Speaker 01

  What bit is that?

• 0:29Speaker 02

  Womp.

• 0:30Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's a...

• 0:34Speaker 02

  That's one of my all time favorite bits, because it's such, it's such a great arc. You know, it's got a lot of detail to it, and it, and then it comes back around.

• 0:44Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, I'll probably never write anything better than that.

• 0:46Speaker 02

  Ah, it's a great bit. You will, you will. But it is an inspired piece of material.

• 0:51Speaker 01

  You know, sometimes you haunted by a bit where you're like...

• 0:53Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 0:54Speaker 01

  And people, and every now and then somebody walk up to you and go, "You know my favorite Joe Rogan is?" And you're like, "Yeah."

• 0:58Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 0:59Speaker 01

  Yeah, but it's cool, it's cool, it's, I'm, I'm excited, man. We already at like 300,000 views, I'm trying to get a million. Let me get a million.

• 1:05Speaker 02

  Well, after this, it'll, it'll boost up for sure, and it was really good. It's a great special, man. It's hard, it's hard to, a special never feels like it feels in the room, because you're not in the audience, you're at home, so it's always like, even a great special is like 60 to 70% of what it feels like to be there.

• 1:23Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:23Speaker 02

  When you're there, it's always better. But then it's hard to be relaxed, because you know that there's fucking cameras on you, and you gotta nail this.

• 1:29Speaker 01

  You know the analogy I use, is like, it's the difference between watching porno and then watching those same two people have sex right in front of you.

• 1:40Speaker 01

  You know, it's the exact same thing as happening.

• 1:42Speaker 02

  Right, right, right.

• 1:43Speaker 01

  It's a...

• 1:44Speaker 02

  Way crazier, people are fucking right in front of you, like, yo.

• 1:47Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's a whole different, it's a whole different vibe.

• 1:48Speaker 02

  Right, right, yeah. It's, it's hard to get them down, you know, there's a lot of great comics that don't have a great special, and it's just, it's hard, it's hard to nail it.

• 1:59Speaker 01

  I mean, it's hard to nail it, it's hard to know when to make it happen, it's hard to be in the right mind frame.

• 2:06Speaker 02

  Yep, yep, all those things.

• 2:08Speaker 01

  Yeah, but, once you knock one out.

• 2:10Speaker 02

  Yeah, once you knock one out, once you get a really good one. If you're doing, I always like to film four if possible, and then, once you have one in the can, then you're free. Once you have one that's done, you're like, alright, this is all a regular show now, now I can be free.

• 2:24Speaker 01

  Well, that's the advice you gave me before, I'm glad I did that, too. But it, but it, but it was funny is, the first one was the one where you're in the booth.

• 2:31Speaker 02

  Because you're inspired, but also there's less pressure.

• 2:33Speaker 01

  Yeah, you know, you know you have more chance, right?

• 2:36Speaker 02

  Yes, so you're free, you're free, you're inspired, it's just when you have to do one. Like, there's a lot of great specials, like Bill Hicks' Relentless, the one he did in London, god, it feels like he's tense. It doesn't feel, it doesn't feel like loose, like relaxed, it feels like he's very aware he's being filmed.

• 2:54Speaker 01

  You think he only shot the one?

• 2:55Speaker 02

  I think so, yeah, because it was a huge theater, you know? And back then, that's what they used to do. Back then, people would shoot one special, they would film one show, you know?

• 3:06Speaker 01

  That, that feels, that's...

• 3:07Speaker 02

  Crazy. I remember when I first started doing Two Days, people were like, "God, that's gonna cost you so much more." I'm like, "Better that, better that, have peace of mind."

• 3:16Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 3:16Speaker 02

  But then what did I do? I went and did a live one, so...

• 3:19Speaker 01

  That, I would never do, that scares the shit out of me.

• 3:21Speaker 02

  It scares the shit out of me, too, that's why I did it. I wanted to see what it's like, if I could do a, it felt like a regular show, it felt like a total regular show.

• 3:29Speaker 01

  Now, you prefer that?

• 3:30Speaker 02

  It's exciting, there's something thrilling about it. Also, I hate editing, I don't want to watch myself, I hate it, I don't want to watch any of my shit. It's good to watch, because you get disgusted with yourself and you fix things.

• 3:41Speaker 01

  That, that was the hardest part for me.

• 3:42Speaker 02

  It's hard.

• 3:43Speaker 01

  Is, uh, yeah, I mean, film, all the film stuff took criticism, but I didn't, I don't think I turned in the final one till like, four months later.

• 3:50Speaker 02

  Duncan filmed one a long time ago, he's still not, doesn't done anything with it.

• 3:54Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 3:54Speaker 02

  He's like, "I don't want to look at it."

• 3:56Speaker 01

  It's hard, man, and the, and the thing is, what you go, I understand, it's like, the longer you go, the harder it is.

• 4:01Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 4:02Speaker 01

  Because you, you are a different person.

• 4:07Speaker 02

  Right.

• 4:07Speaker 01

  You know, and you look, you're judging yourself, you're looking back, like the sound of your voice, the mistakes you made, the way your hands are moving, the tag you thought of, after you wrapped...

• 4:17Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 4:17Speaker 01

  The set, you know, it was like all...

• 4:18Speaker 02

  That's the biggest torture.

• 4:20Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 4:20Speaker 02

  Those are the torturous ones. It's almost like, the moment you film, you have to abandon it.

• 4:24Speaker 01

  If you really want to fuck with a comic, give them a great tag after they done filmed this special. Like, "I know, I know you can't use this." Yeah.

• 4:33Speaker 02

  Uh, so Jamie, what were you telling me about Moses? I tell you, we gotta save that. Holy shit, is it hot in here, is it me?

• 4:40Speaker 01

  It's a little warm.

• 4:41Speaker 03

  I'll check that first.

• 4:43Speaker 02

  Um, but I was outside.

• 4:45Speaker 01

  But you know, I just, um, I just...

• 4:47Speaker 02

  It's not bad, 62, 72, brother.

• 4:49Speaker 01

  I just read a thing about this, uh, the CTE Foundation, they just, they just released a study, they, basically, they, um, they got every NFL player that died between 2016 and 2021, it was like 800 of them, or something like that, and they asked their families to donate their brains, and so they, the families donated about a quarter of, about a quarter of the families said yes. And, and like 90 plus percent of the brains had CTE?

• 5:23Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 5:23Speaker 01

  So, so the best they can say for sure is that about a quarter of all those NFL players have CTE, because they, it's, it's definitely more than that, because that, that's all they gave them.

• 5:35Speaker 02

  Right, so, but out of the quarter, 90%?

• 5:39Speaker 01

  Over 90%.

• 5:42Speaker 01

  Yeah, I, um...

• 5:42Speaker 02

  You know, they've, they've found CTE in high school kids.

• 5:45Speaker 01

  Well, that's, yeah, that's, that's the next one.

• 5:48Speaker 02

  High school, high school football, all the way up, high school, college?

• 5:53Speaker 01

  Can I, um, can I send it to you, Jamie?

• 5:55Speaker 03

  I got it.

• 5:56Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 5:56Speaker 03

  I got it, because Adam Schefter tweeted it and like, worded it weirdly, and people got mad about that, but...

• 6:02Speaker 02

  Yeah, man, that's spooky. Sometimes I see like an old fighter on Twitter, just screaming into the wind, and I'm like, "What is that guy going through?" Um...

• 6:11Speaker 03

  This is a study in the British Medical Journal that came out like this week or last week.

• 6:14Speaker 02

  What were we just looking at? We were just looking at something different?

• 6:16Speaker 03

  It was on ESPN.

• 6:17Speaker 02

  Oh, study, at least 25% of NFL players in sample had CTE.

• 6:24Speaker 02

  So, 878 players, uh, that appeared in one, at least one NFL game and died in a six year period, at least 25% had CTE. So, this is, um, this study drew on samples donated between 2008, 2021, 93% of which had been diagnosed with CTE, then narrowed the sample based on when donations were highest in fact through the demographic data and information from death certificates. The estimate of 25% is on the low end.

• 6:53Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 6:53Speaker 02

  Said Dr. Daniel Dennis Chivard, the study's lead author, the study found the maximum possible prevalence of CTE was around 97%, but the true rate is somewhere in the middle.

• 7:06Speaker 01

  Yeah, that 3% is just the kickers.

• 7:09Speaker 02

  Yeah, right?

• 7:10Speaker 01

  Mm-hmm.

• 7:11Speaker 02

  Right?

• 7:11Speaker 01

  It's gotta be.

• 7:12Speaker 02

  Yeah, right? Like, everybody else is getting hit, there's no way. Who's that guy that got diagnosed with CTE?

• 7:19Speaker 03

  Right here?

• 7:19Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 7:20Speaker 03

  Uh, is, and I don't know if he's current, but...

• 7:22Speaker 02

  So, the thing is, these guys are getting diagnosed now while they're alive.

• 7:26Speaker 01

  And, and not just CTE, but, um, uh, uh, is it MS? Who, what did, uh, Chris, uh, what's C2K have? Chris Johnson, he was, uh...

• 7:37Speaker 03

  Oh, um...

• 7:39Speaker 01

  Is it MS, I think?

• 7:40Speaker 03

  It's the, the thing that people put, Ice Bucket Challenge, ALS?

• 7:46Speaker 01

  ALS.

• 7:47Speaker 02

  Oh, Jesus.

• 7:48Speaker 01

  Like, so...

• 7:48Speaker 02

  That's what Stephen Hawking had.

• 7:50Speaker 01

  It's also a high prevalence of that.

• 7:53Speaker 02

  Oh, my god.

• 7:56Speaker 02

  A high prevalence of ALS, but again, makes sense, you're getting hit in the head all the time, all sorts of things are probably going haywire up there.

• 8:03Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 8:04Speaker 02

  I mean, the amount of times these guys get hit, so, everybody thinks about concussion, but subconcussive head trauma is just as bad.

• 8:12Speaker 01

  What is subconcussive?

• 8:13Speaker 02

  Where you don't get a concussion, you just get banged in the head, and you think you're okay, because you don't have a concussion, but you're still doing damage.

• 8:19Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 8:20Speaker 02

  You know who gets CTE? Soccer players. From heading the ball.

• 8:26Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, I bet.

• 8:27Speaker 02

  How crazy is that?

• 8:28Speaker 01

  Thousands and thousands and thousands of times.

• 8:30Speaker 02

  But you would never imagine that a rubber ball could hurt your brain. You would think, "Ah, it's fine, boink, it doesn't even hurt."

• 8:36Speaker 01

  You know what was, was, was weird is that... What's weird is how okay it is to make fun of it.

• 8:44Speaker 02

  Oh, CTE?

• 8:45Speaker 01

  Yeah. It's become the, it's become the new R word. You know, where it's like, it's like you can just say, like, CTE is the punchline.

It's because it's brutish men and nobody like, yeah, nobody feels bad for brutish men.

• 11:29Speaker 02

  People always feel bad for women. That's why this lady killed her kids and everyone's like, oh my God, she needed help. Imagine if a single father killed his kids? Do you think there've been any dads out there, we get it, we understand. I also get sad.

• 11:43Speaker 01

  Bruh, I said, I should put the joke out, but I said it on stage yesterday, but I, but when I, so I've known, followed this news, so when I first heard it, so basically she, she strangled her three kids.

• 11:55Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 11:55Speaker 01

  Right? And then she tried to kill herself, she cut her throat and her wrist and then she jumped out the window.

• 12:03Speaker 02

  Didn't do a good job.

• 12:04Speaker 01

  Right, she, she failed, she ended up paralyzed. And I said, and this is, I just said, I feel like she doesn't have good problem solving skills because you was three for three on the strangulation and then when you tried to kill yourself, you using unproven methods.

• 12:21Speaker 01

  Why would you, why, why not strangle yourself? You, you are definitely good at that.

• 12:25Speaker 02

  Yeah, hang yourself.

• 12:26Speaker 01

  Yeah, she, so I don't know if she really wanted to, I don't know.

• 12:28Speaker 02

  She looks fucking crazy. I mean, you can't tell looking in someone's eyes, really, they're under stress, they're in court, they're gonna be going to jail for the rest of their life, most likely. So there's a lot of stress, but boy, does she look crazy.

• 12:40Speaker 01

  But, but when you dealing with somebody that's out of it, you could tell.

• 12:42Speaker 02

  But she chased her son down.

• 12:45Speaker 02

  She chased him down to strangle him, he ran away from her.

• 12:47Speaker 01

  Did she say that?

• 12:48Speaker 02

  It's in the, it's in the case.

• 12:50Speaker 01

  Oh, man.

• 12:52Speaker 02

  You know, I think if those ladies could see the crime scene and see those dead kids with their fucking vacant eyes staring up because their mother took their life, the last fucking thing that they saw was their mother standing over them, choking them to death, I don't think they would feel so bad.

• 13:07Speaker 01

  I think everybody that's saying free, free Lindsay.

• 13:09Speaker 02

  People are out of their fucking mind.

• 13:11Speaker 01

  If she get free, they should have to let her babysit.

• 13:13Speaker 02

  Buh.

• 13:15Speaker 01

  Let her watch her kids.

• 13:15Speaker 02

  She's out of her fucking mind, the world is out of its fucking mind. It's like more of these things come up where you're like, this can't be real. This can't be real, and it is real. More of these things where you're like, people are showing up in support of a woman who killed her children. I don't care how rough it was, the, the ability to kill your children is crazy. That's, that's a level of crazy that anyone who has kids, you know how much you love them, what you would do to save them, what you do to protect them from harm. The idea that you can get to a point where you could strangle your kids and chase your son, make sure that's true, that she chased her son down, I'm pretty sure it's true.

• 13:52Speaker 01

  People are, are making up like conspiracies that it was actually the husband. You know, like that's how badly they want her to not be responsible, even though she's already admitted it.

• 14:04Speaker 02

  Well, I think there's conspiracies about every fucking thing that's ever existed. There's so many morons out there with a hot take, including me. There's a lot of dumbasses that have terrible hot takes. So there's always a bunch of them.

• 14:16Speaker 01

  I'm pretty much always right. I'm pretty much always on the.

• 14:20Speaker 02

  Did you take the COVID vaccine?

• 14:21Speaker 01

  Nah, yeah, a few times.

• 14:22Speaker 02

  Oh, and then shut the fuck up.

• 14:24Speaker 01

  Oh, you think we, you, you still don't believe in vaccines?

• 14:26Speaker 02

  Not that one.

• 14:27Speaker 01

  Oh, not that one?

• 14:28Speaker 02

  That one didn't do a goddamn thing. That one didn't do a goddamn thing. It didn't protect you from transmission, it didn't protect you from infection, and it opened you up to a host of different problems.

• 14:38Speaker 01

  Got me a long vacation, though.

• 14:39Speaker 02

  The.

• 14:40Speaker 01

  Yeah, I think we need another one. We need another pandemic.

• 14:43Speaker 02

  Gotcha.

• 14:44Speaker 01

  I want to stay in the house for six months.

• 14:45Speaker 02

  Just stay in the house for six months. Look, if that's what you like to do, then just do it.

• 14:49Speaker 01

  Yeah, but I don't want to feel guilty about it.

• 14:50Speaker 02

  Ah, so you're willing, you're like Fauci, you want to sacrifice the entire world for your own benefit.

• 14:58Speaker 01

  What did he get out of it, though?

• 15:00Speaker 02

  A lot of, a lot of fear right now. That's what he got, that guy doesn't sleep right now. You could see the look on his face when he had to testify and plead the fifth. He feels the weight of what he did because the world knows what he did now.

• 15:11Speaker 01

  But what did he do?

• 15:12Speaker 02

  Well, first of all, he funded gain-of-function research when it's illegal. So when they, when Obama put a stop to it, he went through the Eco Health Alliance and they backdoored it. And so they funded this creation of these new vi, they take a virus and make it more transmissible and more dangerous.

• 15:31Speaker 01

  Well, what's the purpose, what's the purpose of that?

• 15:34Speaker 02

  Who knows, okay? There's a lot of people that think it's weapons and that this is biological weapons research and what they're trying to do is develop specific targeted viruses that they can inflict on a population. We know they have done that before. They've experimented with like certain bugs and infect these bugs with diseases and then drop them out of helicopters onto civilization so that it wipes out people and wipes out their medical system, everybody gets sick. They, they know they did that on Plum Island, which is right near where Lyme, Connecticut is. And that's the suspicion where Lyme disease came from. Lyme disease, this is why it's called Lyme disease, because it first started, people started being diagnosed with it in Lyme, Connecticut.

• 16:17Speaker 02

  And it's literally like, like a hop, skip and a jump from Plum Island where they do this fucking research on bugs, where they take bugs and infect them with different diseases to make them, you know, so they can use them in warfare, that's the idea. The idea was that they would, say if we're going to war with a country, you fly overhead, dump all these bugs that are infected, people get bit, it starts to spread, gets in the other bugs, their medical system gets overwhelmed, their fighting age population gets overwhelmed. Scary shit, man. These motherfuckers have been doing this kind of research for a long time. But it's like, look, if you're a comedian, you, your phone's ringing. If you're a comedian, you tell jokes. If you're a fucking researcher, you do research.

• 17:02Speaker 02

  And if your research is gain-of-function research to me, and by the way, they never came up with a cure for any of these things. They, by, by, the idea is we're gonna study these diseases, then make them more transmissible so we understand how to prevent infection and how to, how to cure people. They didn't have a cure. When, when COVID got released, they had no fucking idea what to do. The whole thing was a, a mass fuck up, either on purpose or by accident, but either way, Fauci lied and he lied through the entire media thing. First of all, he lied about the miscarriage risk for women in the first trimester, in a text message.

• 17:39Speaker 01

  You gonna have them all?

• 17:39Speaker 02

  Yeah, for sure. In a, in a, in a text message, he talked about how the cytokine storm during the first trimester seems to, there seems to be a signal that indicates a higher risk of, of miscarriage. And then months later, he's on TV telling it's totally safe for pregnant women. In fact, it's more risky for you to get COVID.

• 18:00Speaker 01

  What's the cytokine storm? What is that?

• 18:01Speaker 02

  Cytokine storm is a reaction to the vaccine. And I don't know the specifics, but I know that this is exactly how he described it. And that particularly during the first trimester, I mean, there's like a high risk of miscarriage. It's very high. A lot, I know five women that had miscarriages when they, after they got vaccinated.

• 18:24Speaker 02

  They got pregnant, got vaccinated, had a miscarriage.

• 18:27Speaker 01

  And then?

• 18:28Speaker 02

  And he knew about it. He fucking knew about it and lied. He lied about the transmission, he lied about the, uh, the risk for children. He lied about everything. The necessity for children to get vaccinated.

• 18:39Speaker 01

  Is he going to prison?

• 18:41Speaker 02

  No, because Biden gave him a full pardon for all crimes that he may have committed from 2014 to 2024. He gave him a 10-year pardon for, the first time ever, where someone's been pardoned where they're not convicted of a crime. Usually when you're pardoned, it's like, you know, you did a little this, you did a little that, you went to jail for tax evasion or whatever, and then the guy gets in and goes, ah, he donated to the Democrats, or he donated to the Republicans, and he's a good guy, I'm leaving office, I'm gonna let this guy out. And people go like, hey, how did he get out? They, they yell for a couple of days, then it goes away, and then you live in Florida. That's normal.

• 19:18Speaker 01

  Right.

• 19:19Speaker 02

  But this is different. This is different. He pardoned a bunch of members of his family that had not been convicted of any crime, or even accused of any crimes. He pardoned his son, he pardoned, um, the Fauci one's the big one though, because that's 10 fucking years, for 10 fucking years. From 2014, which is when Obama put the moratorium on gain-of-function research. Obama came in and was like, what the fuck are you doing? Like, why are we making viruses more dangerous? No, we're not spending money on this. Obama stopped it. And then when the Trump adminis-- and he kept doing it through Eco Health Alliance, but then when the Trump administration came along, it was all fucking chaos in 2016.

• 19:59Speaker 02

  And it's very important that we do research on these viruses to make sure that we're protected. And so Trump was like, sounds good, I like it, and then it gets through. I don't know exactly if that happened.

• 20:16Speaker 02

  I know that Obama, I know Obama put a, a moratorium on it in 2014. I know he's accused of going through the Eco Health Alliance, uh, to fund, uh, gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute.

• 20:27Speaker 01

  Is he in the Epstein files?

• 20:29Speaker 02

  I don't think so. He likes killing people, he doesn't like fucking them.

• 20:34Speaker 02

  Oh guys, he's a scary dude. He's a scary dude, man. I mean, this is the same dude during the AIDS crisis that was giving people AZT, which killed people quicker than cancer when they were using it as a chemotherapy drug. They stopped using it as a chemotherapy drug because it was killing people quicker than the cancer was. But it was already approved. So when AIDS came along, they're like, look, instead of going through this long trial to come up with a medication, and you have to go five years, or re-- all this fucking shit you have to do to get FDA approval, we've got a drug already, let's just start using that. And they started using AZT, a toxic chemotherapy drug. And they used it for people that were asymptomatic. So people who had no symptoms, but they tested positive for HIV, they gave them AZT, and they were dead in six months.

• 21:16Speaker 01

  I wonder, why didn't we lock down for that? We, if we'd all stopped fucking for like a year and a half, we would've got AIDS up out of here.

• 22:51Speaker 02

  I have a sneaking suspicion that there's a guy, he died recently. The, the guy, Peter Duesberg, who was out of the University of California, Berkeley. When did he die?

• 23:05Speaker 01

  You're talking about the guy that, uh?

• 23:06Speaker 02

  He, he was, uh--

• 23:08Speaker 01

  Like the bone marrow transplant?

• 23:09Speaker 02

  No, no, no. He--

• 23:11Speaker 03

  Earlier this year, January.

• 23:13Speaker 02

  Oh, earlier this year. Should've had him back on again. I had him on early in the day and people got so mad at me. So he's a professor of biology at the University of California, Berkeley. Tenured professor, so they couldn't fire him. And, um, but lost all his research grants, lost everything. Because during the AIDS crisis, he pointed out that all these people that are in the gay community that are suffering from, you know, air quote AIDS, are also hardcore drug users. They're all party drug users. They're all using Amyl nitrate and crystal meth, and they're all-- they're destroying their immune system with this stuff, and then they get HIV. His contention was that HIV, and I don't know if this is true, uh, I'm sure a lot of people disagree, but I'm just saying what he believed.

• 23:57Speaker 02

  His contention was that HIV was actually not responsible for AIDS, but was in fact a weak virus that was only showing up in the immune systems of people that were already compromised. So these people were severely compromised because they were heavy drug users, and that's what was fucking up their, their immune system. That's what was fucking up their life.

• 24:16Speaker 01

  He said that in the 80s?

• 24:18Speaker 02

  Oh yeah. There's tons of articles. I mean, he, he printed it, I think, God, it was like, was it Spin Magazine that had this whole thing about it? He wrote books on it, but he was basically rendered persona non grata. He was, he was basically, lost all his grants, didn't have any, you know, no students wanted to, like, study under him. He was, he was a pariah because of his position. They, they said it was homophobic, they said all these crazy things, but he was saying, look, it's nothing to do with gay or straight. What I'm telling you is this group of people that you're attributing this disease to also are hardcore drug users. You're not seeing this, like, when they say AIDS in Africa, do you think they're testing all those people for HIV with a fucking, with a, with a PCR test?

• 25:00Speaker 02

  No, they're, they're malnourished. They're dying of starvation.

• 25:04Speaker 01

  So you're, so his theory is that you, you have to already have a weakened--

• 25:08Speaker 02

  Exactly.

• 25:09Speaker 01

  For your HIV to progress to AIDS.

• 25:11Speaker 02

  Exactly. He was saying the reason why these people have HIV is not because they have, HIV's killing them, they have AIDS. Their immune system is already destroyed, so that's why HIV is not fought off by the body.

• 25:26Speaker 02

  It's very weird, because he's full of shit. Okay, we know he's full of shit. He's a liar. He's a proven liar. He lied about the gain-of-function research, he lied about the transmission, lied about the infection of, the potential of the vaccine to stop infection and transmission. He lied about how deadly it was for kids, he lied about the death rate. There's proof of all of this.

• 25:46Speaker 01

  I remember when you sent me that book, it was like, I forget, who wrote that book?

• 25:49Speaker 02

  Which one? RFK Jr.? The Real Anthony Fauci?

• 25:52Speaker 01

  I think, was that the book you sent me? Like, during, this was like during the pandemic, or right after the pandemic? You're like, you gotta read this.

• 25:57Speaker 02

  Probably, that was it, yeah.

• 25:58Speaker 01

  I never read it.

• 25:58Speaker 02

  Ah, you should listen to the audio version, it's really good.

• 26:02Speaker 01

  I just don't think he's that interesting. Uh, because--

• 26:04Speaker 02

  Fauci?

• 26:05Speaker 01

  Yeah, because he's not--

• 26:07Speaker 02

  Well, here's something that should interest you. He used this AIDS vaccine on foster kids in New York and killed them.

• 26:13Speaker 01

  Really?

• 26:13Speaker 02

  Yes. They experimented on foster children in New York State and killed them with this vaccine that he was trying, he was trying to develop a vaccine for air quotes AIDS. And in doing so, he killed a bunch of kids.

• 26:25Speaker 01

  So why they can't put him in prison for that?

• 26:26Speaker 02

  Because no one's chasing after him for that. No one's chasing after him for anything other than the most recent thing, but the more you dig into this guy, and if you read The Real Anthony Fauci by RFK Jr., that book is fucking horrifying.

• 26:39Speaker 01

  Well, if they start locking people up for what they did to foster children, there's gonna be a lot of motherfuckers going, going to prison. Yeah, I bet, I bet you that's where they start experimenting.

• 26:46Speaker 02

  Of course. They have no parents. They have no parents, and they're children, and, and they can't say shit. No one's gonna believe them.

• 26:51Speaker 01

  They didn't know better, and they tell, oh, this is gonna make you feel better.

• 26:53Speaker 02

  Exactly. Yeah. And they're probably already troubled, so, you know, and they probably already have health problems because they're probably not getting good nutrition, and they're probably under stress all the time, and fuck, man. They're probably, parents were drug addicts or alcoholics, that's, that's a distinct possibility. It's fucking, the, the book is horrible. And I always say, look, if it's not true, why hasn't anybody sued him?

• 27:17Speaker 01

  That's a good point.

• 27:18Speaker 02

  He's the head of HHS now. I mean, I don't think he's wrong. And I had the same opinion of him that a lot of people have.

• 27:25Speaker 01

  You don't think who's wrong?

• 27:27Speaker 02

  RFK Junior.

• 27:27Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 27:28Speaker 02

  I don't think he's wrong. I think it's very well researched, and I think he's telling the truth about all of this. And when I was, you know, a quote-unquote liberal, when I was living in California, I thought he was a kook. When he was talking about vaccines and all this, I thought he was just an anti-vaccine, anti-science nutter that also happened to be a Kennedy.

• 27:49Speaker 01

  See, that's how I feel about him.

• 27:51Speaker 02

  Because you don't pay attention to what he says.

• 27:53Speaker 01

  That is a good point.

• 27:54Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 27:55Speaker 01

  Because it's hard to listen to. It's hard to listen to him talk.

• 27:58Speaker 03

  Well, if you hear his voice.

• 28:00Speaker 02

  Yeah, but the thing is, the book is written, and then someone else reads it. So it's not, that would be torture if you read the audio book.

• 28:07Speaker 01

  And then you say some crazy shit.

• 28:08Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 28:09Speaker 01

  You sound like a...

• 28:11Speaker 02

  Yeah, exactly.

• 28:12Speaker 01

  Like a troll or something.

• 28:13Speaker 02

  Well, the thing about him that's really interesting is he was a well-respected guy for the longest time, because he was an environmental attorney. And what he was doing was stopping corporations from polluting rivers. Like, he's responsible for cleaning up the East River in New York State, in New York City. He's literally responsible for that. Like, he held those, he went to court, he held those people accountable, made them clean it up. Like, he was a legit guy. And then these women kept showing up at some of these events that he had, where he would give speeches on the toxic poisons, mercury in the ground, all these different things that are the problems of pollution that enters into communities. And these ladies started saying, "You need to look at mercury in vaccines."

• 28:57Speaker 02

  And he was like, "What? Fucking crazy bitches, I'm not listening." And like, this woman literally showed up and said, "I'm not leaving unless you read this." And he's like, "All right, well, let me look at it." And then he started looking in, and he was like, "Holy fuck." And then when you see the, when they ra, first of all, the biggest mistake they ever did was give these vaccine manufacturers complete immunity.

• 29:19Speaker 01

  Is he the reason we don't use mercury in the vaccines anymore?

• 29:23Speaker 02

  Oh, I don't know. I don't know. Well, they use a different kind of mercury, and then they started using it. They used methyl mercury and ethyl mercury, I forget which one. And one of them, they said, it leaves the body quicker. But the problem with that is it also crosses the blood-brain barrier. Like, any amount of mercury is bad. Then they started using aluminum. You know, the way, do you know how a vaccine works?

• 29:46Speaker 01

  I mean, generally.

• 29:47Speaker 02

  Roughly, roughly.

• 29:47Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 29:48Speaker 02

  Yeah, so you have an inert virus, and then you have an irritant. And the irritant is like aluminum, and your body reacts to that, and then recognizes the virus and builds immunities towards that virus, the dead virus that's in the vaccine. And they were using mercury as this irritant, as this thing that causes this immune response. And mercury is fucking terrible for you.

• 30:10Speaker 01

  Did you see the thing they, they just found, it's gonna be, it potentially could be the first,

• 30:17Speaker 01

  the first thing in history to be the, to be the cure and its own vaccine? They found like frog venom.

• 30:25Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 30:25Speaker 01

  Oh, I'm sorry, no, bacteria in a frog's gut.

• 30:28Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 30:29Speaker 01

  Something Americanas, I forget what it was.

• 30:31Speaker 02

  Here's one thing important before we get off the vaccine autism thing. The guy who wrote the study that's often quoted about vaccines not causing autism just got arrested for fraud.

• 30:45Speaker 01

  The guy that's often quoted?

• 30:46Speaker 02

  So the scientist whose paper they quote, when they say, "Here's the proof that vaccines don't cause autism," see if you can find that article. He just got arrested for fraud.

• 30:57Speaker 01

  What kind of fraud?

• 30:58Speaker 02

  We're gonna find out. But people around Fauci, this is what's interesting, that don't have a pardon from Biden are going, are getting arrested now. And that's interesting. They're being tried, and they're being charged. So it's gonna get weird. And that guy, he feels the heat. Autism vaccine arraigned in the United States. Danish physician co-authored work demonstrating no links between childhood vaccines and autism. And what is he arraigned for? Co-authored key papers demonstrating no links between childhood vaccines and autism, was arraigned on federal wire fraud and money laundering charges after his extradition from Germany, the Department of Justice said. He was a co-author of a 2002 study published in the New England Journal of Medicine

• 31:43Speaker 02

  that offered strong evidence based on a cohort of 500,000 Danish children that refuted the hypothesis that measles, bumps, and rebellion of vaccination caused autism.

• 31:53Speaker 01

  Who hasn't done a little money laundering?

• 31:55Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 31:57Speaker 02

  He's a dirty guy, and he probably was getting paid to make that study. And that, there's a long history of scientists doing that, all the way back to the scientists that were paid off to, by the sugar industry to show that it was cholesterol and saturated fat that was causing heart attacks, and not sugar. They pay these guys $50,000.

• 32:18Speaker 01

  That's it?

• 32:18Speaker 02

  That's it. In like, whatever year it was. And these guys fucked us up.

• 32:22Speaker 01

  Man, you can get a couple senators for $50,000.

• 32:24Speaker 02

  Oh, you get a lot of people. You get a lot of people for $100K.

• 32:29Speaker 01

  That's the right amount.

• 32:30Speaker 02

  Well, what have they done here in Texas with the fucking THC ban? Who's asking for that when 70% of the state wants it to be legal? And somehow or another, they made it illegal, and the alcohol lobby is involved, and they've been losing money? You know, alcohol companies are losing money right now. People are drinking a lot less.

• 32:50Speaker 01

  Texas runs on drugs. It's crazy to people that pretend like, pretend otherwise. It's like, everyone's always on something.

• 32:57Speaker 02

  Well, if they're not on something illegal, they're on something legal. And that's where it gets weird. Like, who decides what's legal and what's not legal?

• 33:04Speaker 01

  Like, all the border states get high.

• 33:07Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 33:07Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, not, I mean, all the states get high, but the border states especially, that's where the drugs are coming in.

• 33:13Speaker 02

  Listen, you could just go to the doctor and say, "I can't concentrate," and they'll give you Adderall.

• 33:18Speaker 01

  Yeah?

• 33:19Speaker 02

  It's so easy to get Adderall.

• 33:21Speaker 01

  They'll put you on some powerful shit.

• 33:23Speaker 02

  They'll put you on speed. You can crush it up and snort it, and it's totally legal.

• 33:30Speaker 01

  I mean, half the college kids, they go on Adderall and then chat.

• 33:33Speaker 02

  Half the high school kids. High school kids are saying they have ADD, and they're getting Adderall. I know this for a fact.

• 33:39Speaker 01

  The thing is, I do have it, man, I can't take that shit. It fucks me up.

• 33:43Speaker 02

  What do you mean, you have ADD?

• 33:45Speaker 01

  I've been, I was diagnosed with that shit, and I was like...

• 33:47Speaker 02

  What does that even mean?

• 33:49Speaker 01

  I don't know.

• 33:49Speaker 02

  I don't even think it's real.

• 33:51Speaker 01

  But every time they tried to give me medicine for it, I was like, "I don't like this."

• 33:54Speaker 02

  I think it's just you think different than other people. That's all it is. And you're bored with stupid stuff that you don't want to pay attention to. But you could focus like a motherfucker when you like something, right?

• 34:04Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 34:04Speaker 02

  Yeah. It's a superpower, dude.

• 34:06Speaker 01

  When I like something, or when there's a sense of urgency. Like, if it's like, "Oh, it's gotta happen right this second." Yeah, I can focus.

• 34:11Speaker 02

  Yeah, when you actually have to do something, other than you have some shitty job, where they tell you what to do, like, "Fuck this." Oh, you have ADD, you can't focus.

• 34:20Speaker 01

  No, but yeah, the problem, yeah, I don't have a problem focusing, I just, it's just what I can focus on.

• 34:26Speaker 02

  Yeah, exactly.

• 34:27Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's like, if it doesn't, if it's not interesting to me, then I'm just...

• 34:30Speaker 02

  That's not a disease, man.

• 34:32Speaker 01

  It depends on who you ask.

• 34:33Speaker 02

  That's the problem.

• 34:34Speaker 01

  You know, it's a disease when your boss wants you to do something. You're like, "What the fuck is wrong with him?" You know?

• 34:40Speaker 02

  I got ADD.

• 34:41Speaker 01

  Or when I gotta fill out a applicant, I'm telling you that,

• 34:45Speaker 01

  if you had to fill out a form to get into heaven,

• 34:49Speaker 01

  I'm gonna be burning up in hell. I hate paperwork, like, I just can't fucking do it. I just can't fucking do it.

• 34:55Speaker 02

  Yeah, that's not ADD.

• 34:56Speaker 01

  Like, I really gotta, I really gotta, well, no, this is just a separate pet peeve of mine. I really can't, because it's always for no reason, it's always someone asking you information that they already have.

• 35:06Speaker 02

  Right.

• 35:06Speaker 01

  They'll mail a form to your house, and you gotta put your address on it.

• 35:09Speaker 02

  I get crazy when I go somewhere, and like, you wanna buy a tire or something like that, and they want, "Can you give us your email address?" Like, no.

• 35:16Speaker 01

  So you don't believe in ADD at all? Or you just don't think most people have it?

• 35:20Speaker 02

  No, I think most people just don't want to concentrate on the things that are boring to them, and I don't think that's a disease. I think, listen, you could use a little discipline, and it'd probably be good to learn how to count. There's some stuff that's good, but the actual disease, like, what does that mean?

• 35:37Speaker 03

  It's a disorder, though, not a disease.

• 35:39Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 35:40Speaker 03

  It's a kind of difference.

• 35:40Speaker 02

  Okay, disorder. But even a disorder, by whose standards? By society's standards, it wants you to have a boring-ass job that you don't like, or concentrate in boring-ass classes that you're not enjoying. He can't concentrate, he's got ADD. The fucking class is boring. I bet if you get that kid in front of a video game, he can concentrate like a motherfucker.

• 36:00Speaker 01

  They probably, they probably call it a disorder because most people don't have that problem.

• 36:05Speaker 02

  I don't think most people don't have it, I think a lot of people have it. Yeah, I think if you go to the doctor, they'll tell you you have it.

• 36:10Speaker 01

  Like, even the kids that was, get their ass beat, they still can't focus. Like, you know, they call it, they let your mama come in class and watch you.

• 36:17Speaker 02

  Yeah, but they're just bored, man. They're bored. It's not a disease. If you give those kids something they like, like a game that they like, I bet if there's a sport they like to do, I bet they love that. I bet they're like focused on that. School is fucking boring. It's boring and it's frustrating for children that are filled with energy to have to sit down.

• 36:37Speaker 01

  I remember this guy, um, I used to listen to, what was his name? Tom Hartman, I think. But he, he, I remember hearing him talk about a school they, they had way back in the day in the northeast that would, like before they started calling it ADHD. But they would go get these kids that couldn't focus and they would put them all in this one school and they talked completely differently. Like they would let you, they would let them kind of just do, like if they had a question, that's when they would learn whatever they needed to learn to answer that question. They didn't, it wasn't like a super structured curriculum. So they got to only do what they were interested in and they would have to learn the basics before they could, you know, finish whatever they were actually interested in. And it worked out. I don't know why, I forget why it ended up getting shut down, but it was almost like Professor X's

• 37:23Speaker 01

  academy. You know, they would go find these weird kids and bring them all to this one place. But that, like you said, it doesn't fit into the standardized.

  Yeah, it was engineered to turn you into a worker. It's not to educate you the most effective way possible. It's to make sure that you can get a job. It's like they just want to turn you into someone they can use.

• 39:23Speaker 01

  Well, then now they're shipping all the jobs overseas.

• 39:26Speaker 02

  The problem with whenever the pharmaceutical drug companies are involved, they have such a grip on the media and such a grip on the medical establishment. There's so much money involved. They will come up with disorders that they need to medicate you for because they're extremely profitable. And that's the problem.

• 39:43Speaker 01

  Yeah. Yeah, I mean, but that's every industry.

• 39:45Speaker 02

  But it doesn't mean Adderall's not awesome. I bet it's great.

• 39:48Speaker 01

  This is, like, I feel like the world is just a series of scams.

• 39:53Speaker 02

  There's a lot of that.

• 39:54Speaker 01

  It's like whatever scam are you, are you in on? Yeah, I mean, everything's kind of a scam.

• 40:00Speaker 02

  Yeah, not everything. Farms aren't a scam, a good farm.

• 40:04Speaker 01

  Scammers.

• 40:05Speaker 02

  You give people money, they give you eggs. That's not a scam. There's a lot of things that aren't scams.

• 40:10Speaker 01

  I mean, yeah, yeah, I guess, I mean, listen, if you could buy eggs directly from the farmer, then you're not, you're not getting scammed.

• 40:16Speaker 02

  The thing about money and power is at the highest levels, like when you get into government, when you get into enormous enormous corporations that can affect government, then you're gonna get a lot of scams because they're just trying to make as much money as possible. That's the problem.

• 40:32Speaker 01

  Like, I don't think, I don't think it was ever intended for, for like, for politician to be like your job, for Senator to be like a lifetime.

• 40:40Speaker 02

  Lifetime. Crazy. And then all of a sudden, you, you have hundreds of millions of dollars through a method no one could really explain why you're so good at the stock market.

• 40:49Speaker 01

  Yeah, and all your, and, and if I just, if I just follow all your, mirror all your stock trades perfectly, yeah, regardless of party or somehow I get.

• 40:58Speaker 02

  You ever talked to DeRosa about it?

• 41:00Speaker 01

  No.

• 41:00Speaker 02

  DeRosa used to work for the Senate in Texas. And he's got some crazy stories, crazy stories about how much money these people are getting. Donations and this and that, and go and do this and go and do that and getting paid to do this and paid to do that. That's most of what their job is, is fundraising and collecting money from people.

• 41:18Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah. And I, and I made the mistake of, cause I, you know, I never give politicians money, like ever. It just doesn't make sense to me to give a rich motherfucker money. They're like, I need your money. I need money, right? I need you to go get me, but I, I don't donate to them hardly ever. And I made the mistake, I sent a politician money recently and I, and, and then they just, they just never stop asking. Just every week, like you, as soon as you put your email down, they just, from every week, they're like, guys, we need, I just need one more dollar. I was like, I'm not giving you no fucking money.

• 41:52Speaker 02

  They were trying to, they were trying to raise money for the Democratic Party right after Kamala lost. They were sending out emails.

• 42:00Speaker 01

  Well, they're, they're always all in constant, that's why, that's why, that's why the political parties need to constantly keep you scared. Because that's the only way they can make sure you give them money. They tell you the sky is falling. Hey, we can't defeat them. It's the end of the world.

• 42:17Speaker 02

  Yeah. Yeah, it's a dirty business, man.

• 42:20Speaker 01

  Yeah, there's people, there's people that are, that are struggling, that are still giving politicians money.

• 42:26Speaker 02

  Have you seen those people that aren't really giving politicians money, but they're listed as giving politicians money? And they think it's like NGO money, that they've funneled money through pretending that these people are donating money? And so they can use NGO money and then funnel it into these political parties? And then they knocking these people's doors and they say, hey, did you donate $25,000 to the Democratic Party? And they're like, no. Like, I don't have $25,000, but they donated at one point in time, many, many years ago, so they have their name on a list. Non-governmental organization. So this is one of the things that, uh, Doge, when Elon came in and like cleaned up all this USAID stuff.

• 43:10Speaker 02

  This is part of what was going on, as a lot of it is just money laundering. You're taking a bunch of government funds and you have all these different non-government organizations that get money from the government and then the money's moving in this very cyclical way. And one of the ways they think they were doing it was finding a bunch of people on these lists of people that had donated before and then attributing money to them that they never donated.

• 43:34Speaker 01

  So if you give them five, if you give them five dollars, they will say you gave a hundred dollars?

• 43:36Speaker 02

  Well, they weren't even given any money, but they were using, because they, they don't get like a receipt. So they just said, oh, Billy Smith donated $25,000. Then they knock on Billy Smith's door. Did you donate $25,000 to the Republicans? Like, fucking no. What are you talking about? So they were just using the fact that they had this guy on a list, they had all this money that Elon was talking about, billions and billions and billions of dollars. It was written that they have no receipts for. They have no idea where it went. And some of that is like moving around. Some of it's going to Ukraine.

• 44:08Speaker 01

  I bet you that motherfucker got a rude awakening. Cause I, actually, I remember talking to you about this on here, about when he first started doing it. I was like, as soon as he start fucking with that real money, he gonna be up out of there.

• 44:18Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 44:19Speaker 01

  I thought it was gonna happen when he went to the Pentagon. But it's like, as soon as you start, you can't, you're not allowed to fuck with the real scams.

• 44:25Speaker 02

  Right.

• 44:25Speaker 01

  You can do the surface stuff. You can do stuff that helps poor people, but you can't, if you start fucking with rich people's money, they gonna get your ass gone.

• 44:33Speaker 02

  Well, he was saying that when you get into like the Medicaid fraud, he was legitimately worried that he was gonna get killed. Cause there was so much money. There's so much fraud.

• 44:43Speaker 01

  You know, you don't hear him talking about that shit no more, do you?

• 44:45Speaker 02

  Well, you know what? It cost his company a lot of money. It cost his political reputation. There was a lot, a lot of people turned on him after that, where he was like a free speech freedom fighter before that. And, you know, and this guy who was just like, you know, people loved him. They, they loved the fact that he's, he's our modern day Nikola Tesla. He's the guy who's making electric cars and rockets and all these different things.

• 45:10Speaker 01

  Yeah, I, I, I think that he's gonna learn, like getting it, getting in bed with politicians is gonna always fuck you over. Because they use people. They don't give, they're not your friends. They're not.

• 45:22Speaker 02

  That's true.

• 45:22Speaker 01

  Yeah, as soon as you ain't useful no more, they throw you in the fucking trash.

• 45:25Speaker 02

  But if you don't get in bed with them, somebody else does and then you get fucked. And that's what people get scared of. They're like, well, listen, there's a reality here. If I can affect it in a positive way, I probably should. And, uh, the USAID thing was wild. Because, you know, you think of USAID and you think of it, you ever, you know who Mike Benz is?

• 45:45Speaker 01

  Nah.

• 45:45Speaker 02

  I mean, I'll send you some shit if you're interested. But he's the most, he's done the most extensive work on USAID. And what he basically said was USAID was for things that were too dirty for the CIA. And a lot of it is regime change overseas. So you think of USAID as aid, right?

• 46:01Speaker 01

  Right.

• 46:02Speaker 02

  It's not. It's Agency for International Development. It's a regime change organization.

• 46:09Speaker 02

  Funds rebel groups in other countries, it funds rebel groups.

• 46:13Speaker 01

  So it's like a, it's a front?

• 46:14Speaker 02

  It's a front, yeah, and it's not just one front. USAID funds who knows how many NGOs, who knows how many non-governmental organizations. India has some fucking insane number of NGOs. The number of NGOs are so crazy, it's like one forever million people in India and there's a billion people in India. Something might be crazier than that. It's crazy how many NGOs are. So there's so many companies, or so many non-governmental organizations, it's so hard to keep track of it all. Again, I'm butchering this, I don't have the facts available at my fingertips, but I could send you some of the Mike Ben stuff.

• 46:47Speaker 01

  But the purpose of the NGO is to funnel money.

• 46:50Speaker 02

  Funnel money.

• 46:51Speaker 01

  Okay.

• 46:51Speaker 02

  Not always, I mean, some of them are sure, I'm sure are actual charities. There's good people out there that are involved in charities. You know, there's, there's good organizations, Sea Shepherds, awesome, they're awesome.

• 47:01Speaker 01

  What do they do?

• 47:02Speaker 02

  Those are the people that are trying to prevent whaling, trying to bust people whaling. Cause like, um, some countries, there's a way they can get around whaling by saying it's for research. I think Japan does that and they bust them and then they're using them commercially. They, they kill whales and these guys do a great job. I mean, there's, there's, there's real charitable organizations that are real, doing real philanthropy. They're real good people out there. But then there's also scumbags and they realize that there's a lot of this money flowing around, you know, for aid. That's what you kept hearing, oh, these children are starving. Listen, man, you need to look at what the real money was going towards and you'd freak out, you'd freak out. A lot of his regime change.

• 47:44Speaker 01

  You seen that meme of the guy that was like, cor- corruption is not bad. And only when I am not involved, you know what I'm talking about?

• 47:54Speaker 02

  No.

• 47:54Speaker 01

  He's like.

• 47:55Speaker 02

  Who's that, Idi Amin?

• 47:57Speaker 01

  No, no, I don't, I don't even, I don't think he was a famous dictator or whatever, he was just like, he was like this African politician. He was just saying, just telling people on the news like corruption is not bad.

• 48:07Speaker 02

  Let me hear the dude.

• 48:10Speaker 02

  Let me hear it.

• 48:11Speaker 01

  Start it over.

• 48:11Speaker 02

  Back it up.

• 48:12Speaker 04

  If I'm part of that corruption, I def- corruption is not bad. Corruption is only bad if I'm not involved.

• 48:22Speaker 04

  But if I'm part of that corruption, I defend it.

• 48:26Speaker 02

  Okay, he's not talking about him. I guarantee you that guy is talking about people who are corrupt, who defend corruption.

• 48:31Speaker 01

  Really?

• 48:31Speaker 02

  I think they're taking him out of context. I don't think he's really saying that that openly.

• 48:35Speaker 01

  You know what's funny, I've actually never looked into it.

• 48:37Speaker 02

  If I thought about that, I, that guy doesn't look like a scumbag, the way he's saying it, to me, just my instinct, I could be wrong.

• 48:43Speaker 01

  Who, who is he, Jamie, you know?

• 48:45Speaker 02

  Watch him, he's a massive thief. I'm totally wrong.

• 48:48Speaker 03

  Human rights activist Sampson Owimba Ol Ojayo.

• 48:52Speaker 02

  Thank you.

• 48:53Speaker 01

  But did, what, what was the, what's the context of that quote?

• 48:58Speaker 02

  Listen, he's a human rights activist, let's leave it at that, let's move on.

• 49:01Speaker 03

  Longer speech.

• 49:03Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 49:03Speaker 03

  Choosing irony.

• 49:04Speaker 02

  He used irony, thank you. Exaggerated rhetoric to criticize self-serving attitudes, courts corruption. That's what I thought. That's what I thought immediately by the way he was saying it, my instincts.

• 49:13Speaker 01

  Damn, okay, you called it.

• 49:15Speaker 02

  Yeah. I was like, that guy does not seem like a scumbag. That guy seems like a guy who is fed up with corruption. The way he's saying it is not like, I am corrupt, you give me the money. That's not how he's saying it. What he was saying was, it's, people will defend corruption if they're involved. And I think he's right.

• 49:32Speaker 01

  Yeah, I think that's.

• 49:33Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 49:34Speaker 01

  That's basically how it go.

• 49:35Speaker 02

  It's motivations, man, and when you see people getting rich around you, you see all these other politicians that are getting fucking filthy, stinking rich and you are struggling to pay your mortgage. And you're struggling to put your kids into a good school system. You're struggling to make your fucking lease on this nice car that you get to drive. You're struggling. And then you see these other motherfuckers and you go, well, it's not, it's kind of good anyway and bad. I'll get the good done, I'll do a little bit of the, I'll shenanigans, but, but we'll, we'll get it, it's good for the district. The next thing you know, you got a corporation in, they're union busting and they'll.

• 50:10Speaker 01

  Yeah, and you're, you're walking out of Epstein's house and he's like, she's 12, we got you on tape. We need this and this and this past.

• 50:18Speaker 02

  Or not even 12, it's just someone other than your wife. You know, or someone who you talked to, you know, that you didn't realize was a Russian spy and you are some sort of a politician, you're bragging. That's one thing they catch, well, that, that James O'Keefe guy.

• 50:35Speaker 01

  I don't know who that is.

• 50:37Speaker 02

  Damn, Brian, you're so unformed.

• 50:39Speaker 01

  Yeah, man, I know, I really, I mind my business on a level that you wouldn't believe.

• 50:44Speaker 02

  Oh, I know, I like it, I like, I liked that you liked that.

• 50:48Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, I, I, cause, and also, you know, it is, it keeps me having fresh, like, it keeps me having uncorrupted takes. Cause so much now, when you get told the news, you also get told how you're supposed to feel about it.

• 51:01Speaker 02

  Right, but that's how you were about USAID and RFK Junior.

• 51:05Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 51:06Speaker 03

  Do you know who Fang Fang is, Brian?

• 51:09Speaker 01

  Nah.

• 51:09Speaker 03

  No?

• 51:10Speaker 02

  Fang Fang is the lady that was banging the guy who wanted to be the governor of California. You don't know that whole scandal?

• 51:18Speaker 01

  Nah, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, that's the lady that.

• 51:21Speaker 02

  She was a Chinese spy.

• 51:22Speaker 01

  So her husband died and she went back to China?

• 51:25Speaker 02

  No, that's Mitch McConnell and he's not even dead, he's alive. He's alive and there's photos of him holding a newspaper, look at me, the newspaper today.

• 51:35Speaker 01

  I watched.

• 51:35Speaker 02

  This is today's newspaper.

• 51:37Speaker 01

  We watched him, we, I watched him die halfway in a news conference.

• 51:41Speaker 02

  Did you see the video of him sitting on the senate floor, not moving at all for hours and hours and hours at a time where everybody's moving around him?

• 51:48Speaker 01

  Nah.

• 51:49Speaker 02

  I sent you that, right?

• 51:49Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 51:51Speaker 02

  Watch this, this is crazy. He's on the senate floor for 20 hours.

• 51:56Speaker 03

  Well.

• 51:57Speaker 02

  And there's like six hours of him motionless.

• 52:00Speaker 03

  Yeah, I think the whole thing was only an 18 hour event, so I don't.

• 52:03Speaker 02

  Okay, whatever it is, 18 hours. He's motionless, bro, I can't. He's dead.

• 52:08Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 52:09Speaker 02

  It's weekend at Bernie's, they, they just fired him up with cocaine and had him sit there.

• 52:13Speaker 01

  He's back on?

• 52:14Speaker 02

  No, no, no, no, this is old video.

• 52:16Speaker 01

  Oh, okay.

• 52:16Speaker 02

  So this is a video before he completely short circuited, but it's crazy to watch, cause I can't do what he's doing. What he's doing is like some zen monk master shit. Where he's like sitting in a position and not moving a muscle for hours and hours at a time. Where everybody's like moving around him, moving back and forth and left and right. He's not moving. Look, watch this, look at him.

• 52:37Speaker 03

  That's only just a clip of it, but.

• 52:40Speaker 02

  He just sits.

• 52:41Speaker 03

  The guy next to him is just sitting there with him and doesn't.

• 52:44Speaker 02

  Yeah, but at least that guy's moving his fucking head.

• 52:45Speaker 03

  Barely.

• 52:46Speaker 02

  McConnell's not moving at all. Dude, it's bizarre. It's bizarre, he's frozen, look at him.

• 52:54Speaker 01

  I feel like the dude beside him is the one that's.

• 52:56Speaker 02

  Look at that.

• 52:57Speaker 01

  Pushing a button to make him ra- ra- vote.

• 52:59Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 53:00Speaker 03

  Uh, so speaking of the voting, he did make a vote at the end of this.

• 53:02Speaker 01

  Oh, a vote.

• 53:03Speaker 03

  Apparently made the wrong vote, someone's noticed he made the wrong vote, they, they like.

• 53:07Speaker 02

  Fixed his vote?

• 53:08Speaker 03

  Yeah, they told his handler and then he fixed his vote. He was like a thumbs up and then as he's walking away, it was like thumbs down and then he keeps walking away.

• 53:18Speaker 02

  They don't want to let it go, man.

• 53:19Speaker 01

  None of them do.

• 53:20Speaker 02

  It's crazy.

• 53:21Speaker 01

  Who was the last, who was the last one they weekend at Bernie's, was it?

• 53:25Speaker 02

  Dianne Feinstein?

• 53:26Speaker 01

  Feinstein.

• 53:27Speaker 02

  Yeah, she was in a wheelchair, didn't know where she was.

• 53:29Speaker 01

  Bruh.

• 53:30Speaker 02

  And they're like, you want to vote, yes.

• 53:32Speaker 01

  She looked, she looked worse than him.

• 53:34Speaker 02

  Well, she at least can move around a little bit.

• 53:36Speaker 01

  Like towards the end.

• 53:37Speaker 02

  Really?

• 53:38Speaker 01

  And then they, and then Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Like, I wonder why, what it is about, cause that's why power is so scary to me, because like, they want it, they can't give it up to the last drop.

• 53:50Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's identity, it's your identity, it's who you think you are. You're the senator, you're the distinguished senator from South Carolina or wherever you're from.

• 53:58Speaker 01

  But can't you, but you're already rich, ain't you tired? Don't you want to go play with your grandbabies?

• 54:03Speaker 02

  And they never feel rich enough. That's the other thing about trying to get rich, you never, you get accustomed to whatever level you're at and you want to keep leveling up.

• 54:10Speaker 01

  I mean, cause once you at the point where you're a senator, you can pretty much do whatever you want to do.

• 54:15Speaker 02

  You mean money wise? Not if you're clean?

• 54:17Speaker 01

  Well, I mean, you have a lot of pow- you have enough power where you can do most things, I mean, you know.

• 54:22Speaker 02

  Yeah, but the clean ones don't really have a lot of money.

• 54:24Speaker 01

  The clean ones?

• 54:25Speaker 02

  The clean ones, the ones who aren't doing the insider trading.

• 54:29Speaker 01

  Ain't no clean ones.

• 54:29Speaker 02

  There's a few. There's a bunch of people that you can, there's find, you can find lists of them online where they are not participating in any of that. And then you look at their income, you look at their wealth, they're not worth a lot of money. They live, senators, they live like a person who makes a hundred and seventy thousand dollars a year, which is a good living.

• 54:44Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 54:45Speaker 02

  But that's how they live.

• 54:47Speaker 01

  All right, I'm gonna look, I want to see that list, I want to know who it is.

• 54:50Speaker 02

  There's plenty of them.

• 54:50Speaker 01

  I'm not gonna.

• 54:52Speaker 02

  Tim Burchett, isn't he one of them?

• 54:55Speaker 02

  I don't think he's ever been accused of any of that. There's a bunch of these people that are clean. And it's look, man, it's just, it's such a dirty business.

• 55:03Speaker 01

  See, I bet you there's a correlation between the people that are clean and the people that haven't been doing it for that long. You know, I think if you stick around, once you start getting them committees and, because that's the real power. Once you start being on these committees and being the chair and this and that, you start. Because that's when you deal directly with industries and they start grabbing you and shit.

• 55:26Speaker 02

  And then there's also this thing where you retire and you go work for them.

• 55:29Speaker 01

  Yeah, and you don't, they ain't letting you get it, they ain't letting no new people get committees.

• 55:34Speaker 02

  That's true.

• 55:35Speaker 01

  Nah, nah.

• 55:36Speaker 02

  No, no, no, no, no.

• 55:36Speaker 01

  So it's like, they're not letting you, they're not letting you near any of the real power unless you play ball.

• 55:41Speaker 02

  Exactly.

• 55:42Speaker 01

  You know, either you doing this corruption or we got you on tape doing something, but you, you ain't. Yeah, we are all dirty. So we, yeah, that's why every time, like regardless of how much they fight in public, Democrats and Republicans, every time it's time to get theirself a raise, they all vote yes. It's never no filibuster, it's never no controversy.

• 55:59Speaker 02

  Right.

• 56:00Speaker 01

  They all like, yeah, I'll take a little more money.

• 56:01Speaker 02

  Right. Well, that's also why they haven't stopped this insider trading thing. Because they're both doing it.

• 56:06Speaker 01

  It's why they won't release the Epstein files, it's why they won't tell us who shot Kennedy. Somebody, because only the things that fuck, it's also why they have this like blind uh, support of Israel, you know, because like, and they know why.

• 56:22Speaker 02

  They're getting paid.

• 56:24Speaker 01

  They're getting paid. Yeah.

• 56:25Speaker 02

  Paid.

• 56:26Speaker 01

  Or blackmailed.

• 56:27Speaker 02

  Paid or blackmailed, or both. Paid, blackmailed, or both, or there's, there's a lot of those kooky fundamentalist Christians that have an allegiance to Israel because they think Jesus is gonna come back there.

• 56:39Speaker 01

  Oh, I guess I didn't think about that.

• 56:40Speaker 02

  Oh, there's a ton of them. There's a ton of them, Mike Huckabee type characters.

• 56:44Speaker 01

  Wait, wasn't you telling me something about the Old Testament when I walked in?

• 56:48Speaker 02

  We were talking, Jamie was bringing up something about Moses, we're gonna bring that up. Yeah.

• 56:54Speaker 03

  It was just like following the story of, I guess it'd be like literally following the story and just sort of like, you know, putting it through a filter about things I know, or we know now.

• 57:06Speaker 03

  Uh, but like, yeah, I guess what do you know about that story off the gate?

• 57:10Speaker 02

  Which part of the story? You were talking about the Ten Commandments?

• 57:12Speaker 03

  Well, it's how Moses found, that's, Moses and the Burning Bush is Exodus 3, I guess that's how it's like titled. So that's where he finds the Ten Commandments. So he sees a burning bush, or a bush that is burning and not burning up, you know, like not being.

• 57:28Speaker 02

  Consumed by the fire?

• 57:29Speaker 03

  Correct. And then an angel of God speaks to him, tells him to take off his shoes because he's on holy ground. And then depending on which reading of the Bible or translation you're finding, he either finds the tablets or they're like presented to him or something. He then takes the tablets down off of the mountain, sees the people worshiping a golden calf, breaks the tablets. Then they have to go make them again. And this is where I start getting in this place of where I was like researching like language and cuneiform and whatnot, like how many people back then knew actually how to write, read?

• 58:08Speaker 03

  And then how like, the other, like we've gone on side tracks with it might be an acacia bush and he might have been, you know, high on DMT or something like that.

• 58:16Speaker 01

  Oh, he was probably high.

• 58:17Speaker 03

  And so like, it says he found them, so like, what did he find and?

• 58:21Speaker 02

  I think that's a big part of a lot of these ancient religious stories. And there's a bunch of scholars out of the University of Jerusalem that they first came up with this theory that the acacia tree, the burning bush, was in fact a psychedelic plant. And this, like what happens when you smoke DMT, you have crazy experiences and visions, you meet entities. And this is probably what, he probably got a giant dose of DMT from a burning bush.

• 58:51Speaker 01

  Yeah, I think that's also, didn't Joseph Smith also find some tablets?

• 58:55Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah.

• 58:56Speaker 01

  I think, see, I'm always fascinated by people like, the people that have founded religions and stuff because it's like, how careless manner do you have to be for people to buy that? For you like go in the woods and come back and go, hey, I spoke to God and this, he told me this was all the rules. It's not me saying it. It's like, because you, because think about who you would believe that would say that today.

• 1:00:40Speaker 02

  We're very skeptical. You tell me something wacky, I'm like, wait, what happened? Where were you? You, you found a bush? The bush was on fire? Shut the fuck up.

• 1:00:49Speaker 01

  Especially if you start asking me for money.

• 1:00:50Speaker 02

  Right. But there's a lot of people that they're not confident at all and they're very easily persuaded. And those people fall in line, like people that fall into cults. Like the cult that owned the building that I almost bought, that One World Theater, that, have you ever watched that documentary? That guy, I mean, he was, he was basically an obvious kook. He was a gay porn star and a hypnotist and developed this cult out of his yoga students. And if you've ever taken yoga before, very, it gets very culty. There's a lot of people that are teaching the yoga that they, they, look, there's yoga teachers that are very cool and just really cool peaceful, spiritual people that really enjoy teaching yoga and making people's lives better, for sure.

• 1:01:35Speaker 02

  But there's also people that get into a position of power, like being the spiritual leader of a yoga class. And then they start abusing that power. That's the story of like Bikram. Like if you, you know, you ever watched the documentary on that guy? That did Bikram's joke, he's fucking everybody. He was a wild dude, he had Rolls Royces, like he was living like, like a psychopath. And it's all cult stuff. It's like you have that kind of power over these people.

• 1:01:59Speaker 01

  Was he also fucking people's wives?

• 1:02:01Speaker 02

  I'm sure he was.

• 1:02:02Speaker 01

  Because that feels like, no, but I mean, it feels like that's a through line.

• 1:02:05Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:02:06Speaker 01

  In a lot of cults.

• 1:02:06Speaker 02

  Like Waco.

• 1:02:07Speaker 01

  At some point, he's like, I'm supposed to be fucking your wife.

• 1:02:10Speaker 02

  God told me I get to fuck your wife, yeah.

• 1:02:14Speaker 01

  There's a surprising amount of comics that were raised in cults or escaped cults.

• 1:02:20Speaker 02

  Kurt Metzger. Yeah.

• 1:02:22Speaker 01

  Kurt Metzger, Abby Roberts.

• 1:02:26Speaker 01

  Um, I forget her name, there's this girl at the mothership. That, yeah, it's like, I've met, I've probably met like maybe five or six comics that were like, oh yeah, I was in a cult.

• 1:02:35Speaker 02

  Makes sense. Well, Ari was Orthodox Jewish, like heavily, like studying the Torah 12 hours a day, like the whole deal. Lived in Israel in a kibbutz, like he did the whole deal.

• 1:02:47Speaker 01

  Wait a minute, who?

• 1:02:48Speaker 02

  Ari Shaffir.

• 1:02:50Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 1:02:51Speaker 02

  Ari Shaffir was deeply religious, deeply, deeply religious. And then

• 1:02:55Speaker 01

  What changed?

• 1:02:56Speaker 02

  He got older, he got into his like early twenties, like what the, this is fucking nonsense, like what the fuck are we doing? And then he became a comic, like did a full 180.

• 1:03:07Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean, that's a motherfucker that's gonna do whatever he wanna do.

• 1:03:10Speaker 02

  Yes. Well, especially what he's been through with, you know, being in that religious envi, like hyper religious environment, he is just completely allergic to any rules, any, any authority, any people telling people what to do and how to behave and how to think, fuck you. He's, he has none of that in him.

• 1:03:30Speaker 01

  Well, this is the truth, man. This is just what I found, is that most of the time, the people telling you how you're supposed to live, it's like people that make it their whole personality to tell other people how to live, they usually are living like shit. They're doing some shady shit, almost every time.

• 1:03:44Speaker 02

  It's definitely that. And then there's another thing that happens with people that don't have kids in particularly. And it happens with, I mean, I don't want to generalize, but it seems like it's Republicans too, but it's a lot of liberal women. Liberal women with no children want to turn the world into their children. They want to like scold the world like they're doing the wrong thing. And they're, they're worried about the environment and they're worried about the future and they're worried about voting and they're worried about rights and they're worried about the immigrants, they're worried about the this and they're worried about the that. They're taking care of the world like it's the child that they don't have.

• 1:04:17Speaker 01

  But those all sound like good things.

• 1:04:19Speaker 02

  Well, it depends on which, which angle you're taking on any of these things. You know, I mean, you use those things as an excuse to be a cunt, then they're not good things, you know?

• 1:04:29Speaker 01

  I just heard a lady talking about this.

• 1:04:33Speaker 01

  She called it, I don't want to fuck it up. She called it.

• 1:04:42Speaker 01

  Ah, fuck. Don't worry about it.

• 1:04:45Speaker 02

  That very same thing?

• 1:04:47Speaker 01

  No, but she-

• 1:04:47Speaker 02

  People that don't have children?

• 1:04:49Speaker 01

  No, no, no. It, it, she was talking more along the lines of like,

• 1:04:54Speaker 01

  of what, of like cancel culture and what it's born out of.

• 1:05:00Speaker 01

  It, basically like defining yourself. She called it like slave morality or master, master slave morality. What she was saying like, you, the, the ruling class traditionally defines themselves as, like the way they behave as good and just, like, you know, things like being beautiful and being successful and also, and then the, the slave morality is defining yourself as not those things. Right? Like, you're, you're saying that like, I'm a good person because I'm not those things. And you have, and then you have to, uh, see, I'm gonna fuck this up. You're gonna have, and then you have to demonstrate that morality by, by punishing people.

• 1:05:39Speaker 03

  It's a Nietzsche thing.

• 1:05:41Speaker 02

  Master and slave morality, two opposing value systems introduced by the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche in his eighteen eighty-seven book on the genealogy of morality. Master morality is an active, self-affirming value system created by the strong, wealthy and ruling class. Definition of good, masters look at themselves and define what is good based on their own traits, such as strength, power, nobility, beauty, courage and wealth. Definition of bad, bad is simply a secondary descriptive term for what is common, plain or low, not evil. Perspective, it's an inward looking, uh, it's inward looking and focuses on action and achievement rather than reacting to others. Slave morality is reactive, defensive value system born from resentment.

• 1:06:25Speaker 02

  Re- what, resentment? Why does it say resentment? Is that how you say it?

• 1:06:30Speaker 03

  Deep-seated resentment, res-

• 1:06:32Speaker 02

  What is it, but it's, what is resentment? Have you ever seen that word? Uh, deep-seated resent- oh, it's deep-seated resentment. It's deep resentment. Uh, and powerlessness experienced by the oppressed or the herd. Definition of evil, slaves begin by defining what they fear or cannot attain in their oppressors as evil. For example, power, pride, wealth and strength. Definition of good, good is created in reaction to evil, defined as the opposite of the master's traits. Praising humility, meekness, obedience, empathy and forgiveness. Well, the interesting thing is cancel culture does not have much forgiveness. Nor does it have empathy for opposing thoughts.

• 1:07:13Speaker 01

  No, but the woman I saw speak and she goes into that about how like, you, you get to the point where, because, because uh, human beings are all those things, right? It's like, you, you trying to define yourself as one or the other.

• 1:07:28Speaker 01

  You, you have to reinforce your morality by, basically, let me put it in my own words. Everyone is looking for a reason to be their worst self. Like, you're looking for a reason to, to be evil, to like, exercise your, your nastiness and the way to do that is by defining someone else as bad. So then you get to say, you know, I'm, I, it's like, like normally I would never burn down somebody's house, but they voted for such and such. Like normally I would never, you know, yell at someone's kids, but they, they had this sticker on their car. It's like you, you start having to define what other people are so that you can uh, espouse your morality. You understand what I'm saying?

• 1:08:08Speaker 02

  Yeah. And so- It's weak people.

• 1:08:10Speaker 01

  We're, we're all looking for, I think it's, I think it's just human nature, like everyone-

• 1:08:13Speaker 02

  Yeah, but that's a weakness to not, to not be able to objectively look at why you're upset at things is a weakness. It's a psychological weakness.

• 1:08:22Speaker 01

  But we all have weak spots where there's things that you don't, that you are not objective about.

• 1:08:26Speaker 02

  Sure.

• 1:08:27Speaker 01

  Like you have blind spots, you know?

• 1:08:28Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 1:08:29Speaker 01

  Or it's like, you hear somebody died and the first thing you wanna know is, well, how did they die? Right? Because you're trying to figure out, you're trying, you're looking for a reason to not care.

• 1:08:37Speaker 02

  No.

• 1:08:38Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, yeah.

• 1:08:39Speaker 02

  I don't do that.

• 1:08:40Speaker 01

  What if, okay, let me tell you something. What if I tell you-

• 1:08:42Speaker 02

  I never look for a reason to not care.

• 1:08:44Speaker 01

  What if I tell you somebody died doing something stupid?

• 1:08:47Speaker 02

  Well, you know, people doing something stupid is stupid. I mean, it's not that I don't care. It's not like I'm looking for a reason to not care. But it's like, I'm, I'm looking for a reason whether or not I should be really sad or really upset.

• 1:08:59Speaker 01

  Right, or you can go, well, you know, that, that's what he, like, you, you, maybe you're not looking for a reason to not care, but when you get one, you go, oh, thank God. You know, I don't have to like go through the emotions because that dude strapped himself to a rocket.

• 1:09:12Speaker 02

  Yeah, well, there's always people like that. There's always people that do stupid shit that you don't feel bad for if they die. And interesting enough, it's more men than women.

• 1:09:21Speaker 01

  That don't wanna feel bad?

• 1:09:22Speaker 02

  I never laugh when women die. Like, but men die, if men die doing something stupid, like a dude runs with the bulls and he gets a horn up his asshole, it's like, okay, bro.

• 1:09:31Speaker 01

  Yeah, I'm trying to think if I've-

• 1:09:33Speaker 02

  What are you doing? Why are you doing that?

• 1:09:34Speaker 01

  If I've ever laughed at a woman dying.

• 1:09:37Speaker 02

  I feel bad when women die.

• 1:09:38Speaker 01

  I don't think so.

• 1:09:41Speaker 01

  Yeah, bro. I, I have so, like,

• 1:09:45Speaker 01

  I was telling the homie just today, but like, I got the Captain Sabrehojean from both sides. It's dominant. It's not recessive. I, I'm such a soft, like-

• 1:09:52Speaker 02

  You're a compassionate person?

• 1:09:53Speaker 01

  Girl tears, just, I'm just like, alright, fine, take it. Take whatever you want.

• 1:09:57Speaker 02

  You're a nice person. And that's what it is. But, but it can, it can be manipulated with the wrong ladies.

• 1:10:03Speaker 01

  Yep, facts, facts.

• 1:10:04Speaker 02

  That's, that's all it is. It's, you just gotta find a good woman. And if you find, just good people in general. And then you won't be, you don't have to worry about being manipulated because they're not trying to manipulate you. But you have to be manipulated a bunch of times to recognize the pattern. And you go, okay.

• 1:10:19Speaker 01

  Why is it? Because I have definitely watched, I've definitely watched videos of women getting hurt and laughed.

• 1:10:25Speaker 02

  Well, I watched this one Mexican lady lay some bitches out on Sixth Street and I wanted to sign her for the UFC.

• 1:10:30Speaker 01

  Really?

• 1:10:31Speaker 02

  Woo, this chick had a fucking haymaker, dude. She was wide and she gets in a bra with these chicks. The shoes are off immediately and this girl's throwing bombs like Amanda Nunez right hands. Flatlining chicks. She filmed it. I didn't watch it personally. I'm never on Sixth Street.

• 1:10:48Speaker 01

  I was, that was one of my next questions.

• 1:10:49Speaker 03

  This one, is it?

• 1:10:50Speaker 02

  No, no, no, no. This bitch was stout. Those are white chicks. They can't fight. As soon as you see this, as soon as you see the leaning back and the punching at the same time, nothing good's happening. This chick was tucking her chin and throwing like this. Boom! She was throwing power shots. She was flatlining chicks.

• 1:11:08Speaker 01

  Oh, this girl?

• 1:11:09Speaker 02

  Um, nope, that's not it. They're doing the same thing. See the leaning back? There's no power in leaning back. She actually punched her in the nose. That's all that is.

• 1:11:16Speaker 03

  She had a good stance as you were saying it.

• 1:11:17Speaker 02

  Yeah, bad, bad posture, terrible form. This lady at one point in time, someone taught her how to punch, or she's just a natural talent.

• 1:11:25Speaker 01

  Some people, yeah, some people-

• 1:11:26Speaker 02

  Some people have natural talent.

• 1:11:27Speaker 01

  Yeah, because see, that's the things like, if they deserve it, I'll, I'll watch them get punched.

• 1:11:31Speaker 02

  Bro, my friend Tommy, my friend Tommy Junior, have you met him, Tommy?

• 1:11:34Speaker 01

  No.

• 1:11:34Speaker 02

  One of my oldest friends. He's been my friend for thirty-five years. He had this girl that he was dating for a while and he was always telling me, uh, she was like a strong girl. She worked out a lot. He's like, dude, she can punch, man. That fucking machine, she can punch. I go, really? So I'm, I'm skeptical, but I'm open-minded. And, uh, I go, how hard do you punch? She goes, she goes, I punch fucking hard. And I go, okay, hit my hand. And she hit my hand. I held my hand up and she fucking cracked my hand to the point where like, oh, that could knock me out. Like, that could knock me out.

• 1:12:05Speaker 03

  I just found it, right? As you said, hit my hand. I fucking hit play on, ah, damn it, I hit play on that one and that was it.

• 1:12:10Speaker 02

  Where is it?

• 1:12:10Speaker 03

  Uh, it's right here.

• 1:12:13Speaker 02

  Sensitive con- yep, that's her.

• 1:12:14Speaker 01

  Oh, my God!

• 1:12:16Speaker 02

  No shoes, bro, bro, look at that punch. I'm gonna watch this again. Watch this again. Back it up to the beginning. Oh, it's, it's a Instagram video. This chick, okay, she's got sandals on. She's not barefoot.

• 1:12:27Speaker 03

  This is a, this is earlier in the video. I think it starts off with the highlight, you know, and then-

• 1:12:31Speaker 02

  Bro, the, you'll show, yeah, her do, her shoes do come off, right? This chick can fucking crack, dude.

• 1:12:38Speaker 03

  Yeah, shout out to the Texas Street Fight guy.

  Try to, watch it again.

• 1:12:41Speaker 03

  Alright.

  Here we go. Ready? Watch this. Boom! See the hips? See the hips and the shoulder?

• 1:12:48Speaker 01

  From now, every time I come on the podcast, I, this is all I wanna do.

• 1:12:51Speaker 02

  Bro, that girl can fight. That girl can, look at her throw that chick down. She's stout too. Look, the, ground and pound, vicious. Sign her up.

• 1:13:01Speaker 01

  That first punch was incredible and then the hip toss.

• 1:13:04Speaker 02

  A hammer, dude. She threw a hammer. All, all body was into that. She pushed off her feet, everything. That was excellent. If I was her coach, I'd be like, fuck, yeah. That was great.

• 1:13:16Speaker 01

  God damn.

• 1:13:19Speaker 01

  See, you gotta be, if you, if you got, if you hit motherfuckers like that, you gotta be careful, man. You could kill somebody.

• 1:13:23Speaker 02

  Oh, 100%.

• 1:13:24Speaker 01

  You know?

• 1:13:25Speaker 02

  100%.

• 1:13:25Speaker 01

  I'm, I'm. She's not even looking.

• 1:13:28Speaker 02

  Yeah, that girl's looking away too. This bitch, look at this bitch.

• 1:13:31Speaker 01

  She doesn't even know the fight started.

• 1:13:33Speaker 02

  Bro, one more time, give me one more time. Boom!

• 1:13:35Speaker 01

  Oh my god!

• 1:13:36Speaker 02

  Flatline.

• 1:13:37Speaker 01

  Yo, that's like, she, now she definitely had a concussion, you watched, you saw her foot was moving?

• 1:13:40Speaker 02

  Not only that, her head bounced off the ground, that's the scary part.

• 1:13:43Speaker 01

  You fuck around, man.

• 1:13:45Speaker 02

  The scary part is when the head bounces off the ground, that's when people die.

• 1:13:48Speaker 01

  I'm so glad I'm at that age now where I ain't trying to fight no motherfucking bodies.

• 1:13:52Speaker 02

  Yeah, fuck that, dude.

• 1:13:54Speaker 01

  But you know, when you, when you young and you, when you in your twenties and you like, fucking what's up then?

• 1:13:59Speaker 02

  Yeah, dude, I never got in fights.

• 1:14:01Speaker 01

  That shit could go so many, that shit could go wrong so many ways.

• 1:14:02Speaker 02

  I never got in fights, I got in a couple fights in high school, that's it. And before that, I got in a couple fights, a very, very few amount of street fights in my career.

• 1:14:11Speaker 01

  Yeah?

• 1:14:12Speaker 02

  Yeah, all organized, I've had a lot of organized fights, a lot of agreed to fights, I've had a lot of like, matches where I knew I was preparing for and I had fights.

  Been a long, the last time I got into a serious fight, man, it was when I was still, uh, I was still, I was a door, a doorman at a, at an Irish pub. Irish pubs are famous for fights. And I remember this dude had, um, he, he, he came with, uh, he forgot his ID. Him and his girl came, and she had her ID and he didn't have his. And, and then he went back to get his ID, his girl started drinking, he was gone for like an hour. And then, and she kept coming out, talking my fucking head off, coming out, talking my fucking head off. Cause that's how you can tell when people drunk, there's a, like, they'll, they'll tell you the same story they told you 10 minutes ago.

• 1:17:01Speaker 01

  And, uh, and the last time she came out to talk to me, she, she left her phone on my, I had like a little table beside me. And then she came back out to smoke again, and, and, and the boyfriend came up behind her and like picked her up, you know, romantic, whatever. And, and I went to go, hey, you left your phone, and I turned to point at the phone, and he just clocked me. And my, my head bounced against the, uh, like, you know, the frame of the door. And, and we get right to it, you know, I'm whooping this boy's ass real bad and the, and the cops come out of nowhere. This is in, this is in San Diego, this is, uh, I think it's Adams Avenue, but it's, it's where, like, it's like, it's basically like Sixth Street.

• 1:17:41Speaker 02

  I know what it is, yeah.

• 1:17:42Speaker 01

  Yeah, and, and the cops just come out of nowhere, just do, do, do, do, and, and they were all on my side. They put us both in handcuffs, and then they was like, what happened? And then the bartender was like, he works here, and fuck that guy. And I was like, what do you want to do? I was like, let the motherfucker go. Anyway, that guy, later on, I found out that guy, he ended up beating the shit out of that girl, getting arrested. You know? But he just hit me for no reason, and what was so funny is, when I start whooping his ass, he, he completely, he was like a psycho, he completely, he completely was like, why are you doing this? What's hap- like, and he just, he just punched the shit out of me for no reason at all. Never said two words to this dude, except, do you have your ID? He just punched the fuck out, like, he went straight from like showing his girl all this affection, and then punching me in the face.

• 1:18:24Speaker 02

  He's probably on drugs.

• 1:18:25Speaker 01

  He's probably, he's probably on drugs or some kind of, he probably got some kind of, uh...

• 1:18:29Speaker 02

  Mental health issue.

• 1:18:30Speaker 01

  Um, what do you call it, emotional dysregulation?

• 1:18:32Speaker 02

  Mmm.

• 1:18:33Speaker 01

  Or something like that, mood swings.

• 1:18:35Speaker 02

  Definitely not a healthy person.

• 1:18:37Speaker 01

  Because I don't think it was, like, it wasn't, it, like, he, he didn't, he wasn't, he wasn't acting confused. He was actually confused, as to why I was whooping his ass.

• 1:18:49Speaker 01

  You understand what I'm saying?

• 1:18:49Speaker 02

  He wasn't acting.

• 1:18:50Speaker 01

  It was, it wasn't, cause it doesn't give me that vibe of like, where he was trying to like get people, come help, right? It wasn't like that. He was genuinely like, wh- why are you doing this, man, what's going on? Like, he seriously didn't understand.

• 1:19:05Speaker 02

  Did you have glasses on at the time?

• 1:19:08Speaker 01

  No, I, I was, I should have, I was supposed to, but I, I just couldn't.

• 1:19:11Speaker 02

  That's a real problem, isn't it? You get punched with glasses on?

• 1:19:15Speaker 01

  Uh, that's never happened to me.

• 1:19:16Speaker 02

  Really?

• 1:19:17Speaker 01

  No, I, I just recently started caring about my vision and...

• 1:19:21Speaker 02

  Dude, I knew a lot of guys who would fight in the UFC with contacts on.

• 1:19:25Speaker 01

  Oh, that's insane.

• 1:19:26Speaker 02

  Yeah, I know a dude who got staph infection on his eyeball because he picked up his contact off the mat and put it back in his eye.

• 1:19:36Speaker 01

  That's, that is, see, that's what I mean. See, I don't care about that guy, I don't care, right? Because why would you?

• 1:19:42Speaker 02

  He was a kid.

• 1:19:43Speaker 01

  That was, oh, was a child?

• 1:19:44Speaker 02

  No, but, uh, you know, 18, 19-year-old kid, he didn't know any better.

• 1:19:48Speaker 01

  Oh, okay, yeah.

• 1:19:51Speaker 02

  I think he got really fucked up from it too, I don't know if he lost his eye, but it was like a serious problem.

• 1:19:58Speaker 02

  And I've heard of that more than once.

• 1:20:00Speaker 01

  It's kinda scary, see, that's the thing, if it's harmless and you did some stupid shit, it's definitely funny.

• 1:20:05Speaker 02

  Right.

• 1:20:06Speaker 01

  If it's harmful and you were doing some stupid shit...

• 1:20:09Speaker 02

  Right.

• 1:20:09Speaker 01

  It's 50/50. If it's harmful and you were doing some stupid shit trying to harm somebody else, it's funny every single time.

• 1:20:15Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm.

• 1:20:16Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:20:17Speaker 02

  You go to throw a punch and you slip and fall down a flight of stairs and break your leg?

• 1:20:20Speaker 01

  Yeah, that's why my, my, that's why my first thing, when you tell me somebody died, I'm like, how did they die? You don't get to say it's private or respect the family, and, and if you're not gonna tell me how they died, then keep it to yourself. Cause I need to know how to feel.

• 1:20:34Speaker 02

  What's that story I tell on stage about the missionary who delivered the Bible to the uncontacted tribe and they murdered him? Like, nobody feels bad for that guy.

• 1:20:41Speaker 01

  No. No, we, cause that, I think deep down, we are mind-your-business people, it's like, hey, you should've been minding your business.

• 1:20:50Speaker 01

  You know? It's like those people, they, cause it takes work to stay uncontacted.

• 1:20:56Speaker 02

  Sorta, they're stuck, those people are stuck, North Sentinel people are stuck. What's really crazy, if you know the story behind them, you understand why they're so hostile to outsiders.

• 1:21:06Speaker 01

  Why?

• 1:21:06Speaker 02

  Cause there was a guy named Commander Maurice Vidal Portman, and he was this explorer slash pervert who was traveling around like an English gentleman, who was traveling around to these islands, and he would do weird shit, like he would dress them up weird and take photos of them, and make like these, these descriptions of them. He like run, wrote about this one guy, he had testicles the size of a sparrow's egg. Like, he says, he's describing this guy's testicle, so he's doing some freak shit to these people. They also kidnapped...

• 1:21:37Speaker 01

  How big is a sparrow's egg? Why is that the...

• 1:21:39Speaker 02

  I don't know, I guess they were little, he just was comparing. Um, the guy had little testicles, he probably malnourished, he's on a, he's stuck on a fucking island. Like, these people were direct descendants of, you know, this place, North Sentinel Island, and this island chain that's out there, they're completely uncontacted. And this North Sentinel Island only has 39 people, roughly estimated, living on it. And they're stuck, and they have been visited in the past by people, but it's went horribly wrong. And one of them, they kidnapped, I think they kidnapped two children and possibly their a grandparent as well, and then they gave them something like the flu or some sort of a disease, and the people died. They had no immunity to these outside diseases, just like the Native Americans didn't.

• 1:22:23Speaker 02

  You know, when the Europeans showed up, you know, this is the thing that killed literally 90% of Native Americans, died from like smallpox. Because it just spread like wildfire, they had no immunity, oh, it's bad. The, like, when people talk about the genocide of North Ameri- of Native Americans, yes, absolutely. They definitely murdered a lot of the Native American tribes, however, the vast majority of them died from disease.

• 1:22:50Speaker 02

  Like, let's like, throw that into our AI sponsored perplexity. What percentage of Native Americans died from disease because of the European settlers? I think it's really high.

• 1:23:02Speaker 01

  Are these the people you were talking about yesterday that they don't have a?

• 1:23:05Speaker 02

  No, no, no, no. That was different. That's the guy from the Amazon who went to live with these people. How do you say their name again? Piraha? The Piraha people. Fascinating. Wow, that was one of the most interesting podcasts I've had in a long time. The guy was really cool.

• 1:23:24Speaker 02

  Roughly fifty to ninety percent of indigenous people in many affected regions died in epidemics after European contact. Some older, continent-wide estimates put disease-related losses as high as about ninety to ninety-five percent. Fuck, dude.

• 1:23:40Speaker 01

  God damn.

• 1:23:41Speaker 02

  Fuck.

• 1:23:44Speaker 02

  Just fucking imagine that. I mean, imagine you've got no medication? And then on top of that, you have no immunity to these dirty Europeans are coming over and fucking everybody and...

• 1:23:57Speaker 01

  Smallpox, measles, influenza, typhus, and others.

• 1:24:00Speaker 02

  Everything. Everything. The fucking full monty.

• 1:24:06Speaker 02

  Crazy.

• 1:24:09Speaker 01

  Damn, I guess, damn, I didn't know it was that scale.

• 1:24:12Speaker 02

  Well, especially when you're dealing with Europeans that are living in these squalor-like conditions. So, Native Americans lived in these nomadic, especially like the Comanche, nomadic tribal existence where they were... They had tents and horses and they were traveling around and going to different places. They didn't live in their own shit. So, Europeans were living in these fucking places where they'd take a pot of shit and throw it out the window. Their streets were filled with horse shit. They had shit everywhere.

• 1:24:38Speaker 01

  And they were wrong about why people were getting sick. You know, it's like, they didn't realize like, oh, the shit is in the drinking water.

• 1:24:47Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's everywhere.

• 1:24:48Speaker 01

  Yeah, because they, back then, you know, there was a time where like, they believed in like vapors and, you know what I'm talking about? Like, that time where everything was, was spirits and alignment? And they, and they just, they were just completely wrong about why people were getting sick downriver. They, they, no one, it took a long time for people to connect that it was like, oh, because we're shitting up here and then we're pumping our drinking water.

• 1:25:12Speaker 02

  Well, the first doctor to realize that you should wash your fucking hands before you operate on people or, or give birth, or help someone give birth, no one thought that was necessary. They didn't realize, like, you have dessert, disease, you have germs in your fucking hands. He was ridiculed. The first doctor that said that, I think we should wash our hands, like, get the fuck out of here.

• 1:25:33Speaker 01

  Who is that guy? Why don't we celebrate that dude?

• 1:25:36Speaker 02

  I know, we should. I think probably the medical establishment probably does.

• 1:25:39Speaker 01

  He might, he may have saved more lives than anyone.

• 1:25:43Speaker 02

  Right. Yeah. I mean, you gotta think, before they had microscopes, they were just guessing.

• 1:25:48Speaker 01

  Well, at least, when did, when did it start being a thing to wash your hands?

• 1:25:52Speaker 02

  Well, for physicians, here's the guy. Ignaz Semmelweis.

• 1:25:58Speaker 01

  Oh, that's why we don't celebrate him. Your name's hard to say.

• 1:26:00Speaker 02

  Too rough.

• 1:26:01Speaker 01

  You can't have two, you can't have two hard names.

• 1:26:03Speaker 02

  Hungarian medical doctor and scientist of German descent who was an early pioneer of antiseptic procedures, known as the savior of mothers. Postpartum infection, also known as perpala, per, per, perperal? Perperal fever or child bed fever was common in the nineteenth century and often fatal. Semmelweis demonstrated that the incidence of infection could be drastically reduced by requiring healthcare workers in obstetrical clinics to disinfect their hands. In eighteen forty-seven, he proposed handwashing with chlorinated lime solutions at Vienna General Hospital's first obstetrical clinic, where doctors' wards had thrice the mortality of midwives' wards.

• 1:26:48Speaker 01

  Wow. I think it's obstetrical.

• 1:26:50Speaker 02

  Obstetrical?

• 1:26:51Speaker 01

  But I don't feel like we have to say it again.

• 1:26:52Speaker 02

  Obstetrical. It's funny how you can live to fifty-nine years old and never have said a word? And then it just shows up?

• 1:26:59Speaker 03

  How many times do you say thrice?

• 1:27:01Speaker 02

  Thrice. I'm gonna say it all the time now. I have thrice done this.

• 1:27:04Speaker 01

  I only say, I only see it written. I never hear anybody say that.

• 1:27:07Speaker 02

  Thrice? Yeah. Who says thrice?

• 1:27:09Speaker 01

  If you say thrice in a regular conversation, you...

• 1:27:11Speaker 02

  Yeah, you're flexing.

• 1:27:13Speaker 01

  You're something.

• 1:27:14Speaker 02

  Or if you say tertiary, tertiary conditions?

• 1:27:17Speaker 01

  No, that's one of my favorite words.

• 1:27:22Speaker 01

  Because you, because it, it's the only word I know of that means that. So, sometimes it's a handy one.

• 1:27:28Speaker 02

  Right.

• 1:27:28Speaker 01

  Yeah, because before I learned that word, I would just be like, you know, secondary, but more.

• 1:27:36Speaker 01

  And then the first, when I heard tertiary, I was like, that's it!

• 1:27:38Speaker 03

  Tertiary. They beat him up and killed him for fucking telling everybody to wash his hands.

• 1:27:42Speaker 02

  What?

• 1:27:43Speaker 03

  And I threw him in a mental institution where he got beat up inside two weeks later.

• 1:27:46Speaker 02

  Oh, my god. Despite his research, Semmelweis's observations conflicted with the establishment scientific views of the time, the established scientific views of the time, and his ideas were rejected by the medical community. He could not offer a theoretical explanation for his findings of reduced mortality due to handwashing. Additionally, some doctors were offended by the suggestion that they should wash their hands and mocked him for it. In eighteen sixty-five, the increasingly outspoken Semmelweis purportedly suffered a nervous breakdown, was committed to an asylum by his colleagues. In the asylum, he was beaten by the guards. He died fourteen days later from a gangrenous wound on his right hand that may have been caused by the beating.

• 1:28:27Speaker 01

  Man. So, I guess you could say he was the Doctor Fauci of his time.

• 1:28:30Speaker 02

  The opposite. He was, and then he got gangrene from an infection, which is even crazier. He died from a fucking infection from his beating.

• 1:28:39Speaker 01

  God damn.

• 1:28:41Speaker 03

  And then Louis Pasteur is the guy. I've heard that name a million times.

• 1:28:43Speaker 02

  Yeah, and Louis Pasteur, he confirmed the germ theory, giving Semmelweis's observations a scientific explanation. And then Joseph Lister, is that from Listerine?

• 1:28:52Speaker 03

  Probably.

• 1:28:53Speaker 02

  Acting on Pasteur's research pioneered antiseptal surgical methods with great success. Click on Joseph Lister. Is he responsible for Listerine?

• 1:29:01Speaker 03

  Gotta be.

• 1:29:04Speaker 02

  Or maybe like, it's because his name was like, so ubiquitous?

• 1:29:09Speaker 02

  When they were talking about? Was his name like, a name that was synonymous with antiseptics?

• 1:29:18Speaker 02

  Who in, who invented Listerine? Why don't you just Google that?

• 1:29:21Speaker 03

  Well, because I would imagine, I didn't know I was walking into one of the longest Wikipedias I've ever seen. I thought it was just gonna be like on the third paragraph.

• 1:29:28Speaker 02

  Look at all this shit on Joseph Lister.

• 1:29:29Speaker 03

  Yeah, he's done a bunch of stuff.

• 1:29:31Speaker 02

  Damn.

• 1:29:31Speaker 01

  God damn.

• 1:29:32Speaker 02

  He was getting work done. That's a guy that was not lazy.

• 1:29:35Speaker 03

  A third of the way down.

• 1:29:36Speaker 02

  Damn. That dude did a lot of work. Thank god for those people, right? Thank god for those people that are out there investigating germs and diseases and...

• 1:29:48Speaker 02

  Listerine. Listerine is named after Joseph Lister. That's it.

• 1:29:53Speaker 01

  Yeah, that makes sense.

• 1:29:54Speaker 02

  Yeah, of course. Because people probably, at the time, back then, when Listerine was invented, you know?

• 1:30:00Speaker 03

  Eighteen seventy-nine.

• 1:30:01Speaker 02

  Yeah. There you go.

• 1:30:05Speaker 01

  And they're not careful. Now, it's like, it's kind of like ubiquitous now, right?

• 1:30:11Speaker 02

  Yeah, well, the other thing about like, mouthwash? I hear that mouthwash is actually not good for you. I was reading this thing, god, it was quite a while ago. They were talking about athletics. They were talking about like, athletic performance and, and, and gains in terms of like, the... What you, when you're training, like, how, how well you recover and how good you get, how strong you get afterwards? That it's diminished by mouthwash.

• 1:30:46Speaker 01

  What?

• 1:30:47Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. See if you can find that. But it makes sense, right? Your gut bacteria and all the fucking, like, like, for instance, if you take antibiotics, have you ever had to take antibiotics? If you take antibiotics and try to work out, holy shit. Bro, you feel so tired. You feel so exhausted.

• 1:31:06Speaker 01

  Are there fighters that stink on purpose, like, as part of their strategy?

• 1:31:11Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah, definitely.

• 1:31:12Speaker 01

  Really? Is that allowed?

• 1:31:13Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah, yeah. Jiu-Jitsu guys used to do it all the time. They used to not wash their gi at all. It would smell like ammonia.

• 1:31:19Speaker 01

  Are you allowed to do that?

• 1:31:22Speaker 02

  I don't know. We'll find out. Antibacterial mouthwash is plausibly linked to exercise physiology, but has not been proven to meaningfully worsen race time, strength, or overall athletic performance in healthy people. The main concern is that it can suppress oral bacteria involved in producing nitric oxide, a molecule important for blood vessel dilation and oxygen delivery. Okay, there it is.

• 1:31:44Speaker 01

  Thanks, perplexity.

• 1:31:46Speaker 02

  Thank you, perplexity.

• 1:31:46Speaker 03

  That's what if you take Viagra, wouldn't that?

• 1:31:48Speaker 02

  And then beetroot. Beets are really good for converting to nitric oxide in your body.

• 1:31:55Speaker 01

  Why?

• 1:31:55Speaker 02

  It's, I don't know, there's something about beets in general. Well, it says right here, dietary nitrite found in foods such as leafy greens and beetroot can be converted by certain mouth bacteria into nitrite, which the body could then use to make nitric oxide. Nitric oxide helps regulate blood flow, blood pressure, and potentially muscle oxygenation during and after exercise. I know a lot of dudes that will drink beetroot shots before they work out.

• 1:32:23Speaker 01

  Really?

• 1:32:23Speaker 02

  Yeah. Yeah, the beetroot apparently gives you a little bit of extra juice.

• 1:32:28Speaker 01

  So, that's saying, if, if you depend on, on those type of foods, then you're killing the bacteria in your mouth that helps convert them to something usable?

• 1:32:39Speaker 02

  Yes. It can, it kills your body's ability to convert, it'll diminish your performance, maybe somewhat. But, you know, people are always looking for every possible edge. So, if it turns out that like, you use some mouthwash and it'll just take a little bit out of your endurance and a little bit out of your like, race time, or a little bit out of your ability to go into the third, fourth, and fifth round? Yeah, I mean, it's gonna, if it does mess with your bodies, nitric oxide is gigantic.

• 1:33:07Speaker 01

  It'd be, it'd be more motivation, because it's like, imagine if you do all of that and then don't win, you know? Because it's, it's okay to be a funky breath champion.

• 1:33:20Speaker 01

  You know what I'm saying?

• 1:33:21Speaker 02

  Yeah, but you can brush your teeth. You don't, just don't use mouthwash.

• 1:33:24Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:33:25Speaker 02

  There's nothing wrong with brushing your teeth.

• 1:33:27Speaker 01

  Right, right.

• 1:33:27Speaker 02

  No one's saying that.

• 1:33:28Speaker 01

  That's not gonna kill all of the

• 1:33:29Speaker 02

  No.

• 1:33:30Speaker 01

  The bad breath germs.

• 1:33:31Speaker 02

  No, but there's a lot of people that also believe that one of the reasons why people get so many skin infections is because we wash so much. And that we've managed to nuke all of the external flora, the skin flora that we have that usually used to protect people from things.

• 1:33:46Speaker 01

  Hmm. No, yeah, I could, I could, I could believe that.

• 1:33:48Speaker 02

  Yeah, that makes sense.

• 1:33:49Speaker 01

  I could believe that for sure.

• 1:33:50Speaker 02

  Yeah, well, I mean, why do we have to wash all the time? If, other than the fact that you don't want to smell. But take that away, and what would be like the natural reason why you would be created in a way that you must wash yourself all the time, or you can get sick? That's crazy. That doesn't even make sense. No animals are like that. Like, my dog goes a week without washing, and he's fine. He, I, I take him to the groomers once a week. Unless he gets in the pool or goes in the lake, he's not, he's not washing. He's fine.

• 1:34:19Speaker 01

  But I bet you, I bet you it's kind of like, I bet you humans are kind of like, uh, like, you know how, well, maybe it was you that told me that if you, if a, if you have a pig and it gets out.

• 1:34:30Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:34:30Speaker 01

  And you, like, say you put a tracker on him, when you find him, he's gonna be a different animal.

• 1:34:34Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:34:35Speaker 01

  You know, with, and I think, I think maybe like if you were to just release a human into the wild, they would, you would start not needing to wa, you know what I mean?

• 1:34:43Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:34:43Speaker 01

  Like, your body would change in a way that, uh, this is my theory.

• 1:34:47Speaker 02

  I bet that makes sense in terms of your skin.

• 1:34:50Speaker 01

  Yeah, because when you hear stories

• 1:34:51Speaker 02

  You'd get accustomed to it.

• 1:34:52Speaker 01

  From the ancient world and stuff, you never really, it's not a lot of, like, epidemic of funky motherfuckers around.

• 1:34:57Speaker 02

  Wasn't there a dude who was like the world's dirtiest man? And they found this guy and they washed him? And then he died. No, that was a different guy.

• 1:35:08Speaker 02

  The dude who was like the, it was like, there's a famous photo of this guy. He's like caked in dirt, and I think they washed him off and he died shortly afterwards.

• 1:35:19Speaker 02

  Yeah, there's the dude.

• 1:35:20Speaker 01

  Oh, buddy. Nice.

• 1:35:22Speaker 02

  Look at him, he's got, smoking four cigarettes.

• 1:35:25Speaker 01

  Nah, I'll take the soap.

• 1:35:26Speaker 02

  World's dirtiest man in Iran, aged ninety-four years old.

• 1:35:30Speaker 03

  And the meme says that, I don't know if it's accurate.

• 1:35:31Speaker 02

  Yeah, didn't wash for sixty years, died shortly after washing for the first time. Find out if that's true, though.

• 1:35:38Speaker 01

  But what?

• 1:35:39Speaker 02

  Put that into perplexity.

• 1:35:40Speaker 01

  What made him?

• 1:35:40Speaker 02

  Find out if he really died.

• 1:35:41Speaker 01

  What made him wash?

• 1:35:42Speaker 03

  Well, he did die, but it's a matter of timing, you know?

• 1:35:44Speaker 02

  Right, but I mean, I'd like to know. Even if it's just correlation, that does not necessarily equal causation, I would like to know if he died shortly afterwards. He died a few months after bathing for the first time in sixty years, having been persuaded by the inhabitants of the village to do so. There you go.

• 1:36:03Speaker 03

  Well, you can leave that, I'm just gonna leave that alone, come on.

• 1:36:06Speaker 01

  Really?

• 1:36:06Speaker 03

  You don't know what that's all about.

• 1:36:07Speaker 02

  A London merchant who refused to wash after his fiance died on their wedding day. Oh, boy.

• 1:36:14Speaker 01

  Nathaniel Bentley, commonly known as Dirty Dick, was an English merchant who was known for his filthy and unwashed appearance.

• 1:36:20Speaker 02

  He came from a moneyed background and received a good education. As a young man, he spoke several languages and dressed in a dandified manner. And after his fiance died on their wedding day, he just said, fuck it, he gave up on life.

• 1:36:32Speaker 03

  Why does it say Iran portal right there?

• 1:36:35Speaker 02

  Probably because it's propaganda.

• 1:36:37Speaker 03

  I don't know what that's all about.

• 1:36:38Speaker 02

  They're trying to get us.

• 1:36:39Speaker 03

  Um, uh, uh, did you know that we renamed Lake Ontario today?

• 1:36:42Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 1:36:43Speaker 03

  To Lake America.

• 1:36:44Speaker 02

  Lake America.

• 1:38:59Speaker 02

  This offer is for new customers only. Lake Ontario is no longer Lake Ontario, it's Lake America.

• 1:39:05Speaker 03

  And we might be doing the

• 1:39:06Speaker 01

  Why, why do we do that?

• 1:39:08Speaker 02

  Might be doing Atlantic and Pacific?

• 1:39:10Speaker 03

  Could be, yes.

• 1:39:11Speaker 02

  Well, we're gonna name them.

• 1:39:12Speaker 03

  I don't know what the

• 1:39:12Speaker 01

  The ocean?

• 1:39:15Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:39:17Speaker 02

  But Lake Ontario has been Lake Ontario forever. Isn't it connected to Ontario?

• 1:39:21Speaker 03

  Yeah, it said it has something to do with

• 1:39:22Speaker 01

  Yeah, and what about the

• 1:39:23Speaker 02

  But it's in, it's in America or is it Canada? Parts in Ontario, correct?

• 1:39:28Speaker 03

  Part, oh, it's the Great Lakes, so I mean, it touches both.

• 1:39:31Speaker 01

  Yeah, both, all the lakes touch both.

• 1:39:32Speaker 02

  Okay, but what percentage of the land is on, um, Canada versus America?

• 1:39:39Speaker 03

  I think it's literally, I mean, I could look it up.

• 1:39:42Speaker 02

  Yeah, let's look it up.

• 1:39:43Speaker 03

  But it's, I think, on the map right there.

• 1:39:44Speaker 02

  Let's see whose side we're on.

• 1:39:45Speaker 01

  No, but also

• 1:39:46Speaker 03

  I think it's fifty-fifty.

• 1:39:47Speaker 02

  That's crazy.

• 1:39:48Speaker 01

  But also, President Trump, you gotta stop fucking with the acronyms, man.

• 1:39:52Speaker 02

  Well

• 1:39:52Speaker 01

  Because I learned the Great Lakes, but I've learned Holmes. That's how you know, that's how you can name all the lakes, right? How they gonna teach the kids now?

• 1:39:59Speaker 02

  Holmes?

• 1:40:00Speaker 01

  Yeah, Lake, Lake Huron, Lake Ontario, Lake Michigan, um, what's next? E, Lake Erie, and Lake Superior.

• 1:40:10Speaker 02

  Oh, the, yeah, acronym. Okay. I didn't learn that.

• 1:40:14Speaker 01

  No?

• 1:40:14Speaker 02

  I don't think so. If I did, I forgot it. The craziest thing is those are all just melted glaciers.

• 1:40:21Speaker 01

  Really?

• 1:40:21Speaker 02

  Yep. Isn't that nuts?

• 1:40:24Speaker 01

  Do they, do they connect to the ocean?

• 1:40:26Speaker 02

  No.

• 1:40:26Speaker 01

  No.

• 1:40:27Speaker 02

  Do they?

• 1:40:28Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 1:40:28Speaker 02

  All of them?

• 1:40:29Speaker 03

  Well, through the St. Lawrence

• 1:40:31Speaker 01

  The lake.

• 1:40:32Speaker 02

  The ones inside? Like, um, Michigan? Like, that one connects the ocean?

• 1:40:36Speaker 03

  They're all connected to each other.

• 1:40:37Speaker 02

  Oh, wow.

• 1:40:38Speaker 03

  And so they're connected to the, I think, the St. Lawrence Expressway, whatever the hell it's called.

• 1:40:42Speaker 02

  Oh, okay.

• 1:40:43Speaker 03

  Maybe this one's not. I think like Lake Ontario's connected, though.

• 1:40:46Speaker 02

  The one in Illin- what's the one in Illinois?

• 1:40:48Speaker 03

  I just know that because that's how the, Ohio got used for shipping.

• 1:40:53Speaker 02

  Well, actually, even the one in Illinois makes sense that it would be connected to the ocean because that's, they find sharks up there. You know, they found sharks in Illinois? You know how crazy this is? Bull sharks can, they can live in freshwater? So they swam all the way from the fucking ocean, all the way up to Illinois? In freshwater?

• 1:41:13Speaker 03

  There you go.

• 1:41:13Speaker 02

  Isn't that nuts?

• 1:41:14Speaker 03

  Lake Ontario serves as the outlet to the Atlantic via the St. Lawrence River.

• 1:41:17Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 1:41:18Speaker 01

  But how do they, how do they?

• 1:41:19Speaker 02

  So they're, and they're all connected, so all of them are connected somehow to the ocean? God, I thought they were just in the middle. I thought like there's no way in the mid, but it makes sense.

• 1:41:29Speaker 01

  But what's the purpose of changing the name?

• 1:41:31Speaker 02

  Oh, could distract you from the fact that we're in a war that we can't win in Iran? Doesn't make any sense. Like, who cares? It's Lake Ontario. Well, it's a good name. We've had that name forever.

• 1:41:44Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's weird, it's like, these politicians now, they love, they love to solve a problem. Like, they love to like make up a problem for themselves to solve, so you feel like they're doing stuff?

• 1:41:54Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 1:41:55Speaker 01

  Yeah, it's like, because I, I don't, I don't understand what we get out of that. Or is that like, fuck Canada? Is that what that is?

• 1:42:01Speaker 02

  You know what's really wild? Like, these lakes, right, they, at one point in time, so at one point in time, most of North America was covered in like a mile-plus-high sheet of ice. And then at the end of the Ice Age, all that shit melts, probably with the Younger Dryas impact, it's probably very rapid. Oh, that video, we gotta show that, the Nepal thing. And then, uh, after that, they melt and becomes a lake. How do all the fish get in there? Are they getting in there from the ocean? And why are there freshwater fish in there? How long does that take? Because if this whole thing where North America was under ice as recently as eleven thousand years ago, how the fuck are they freshwater fish?

• 1:42:45Speaker 02

  How are the freshwater fish getting in there? Like, where are they coming from?

• 1:42:48Speaker 01

  Probably the ocean.

• 1:42:49Speaker 02

  Right, but freshwater fish in the ocean? Did they evolve, become freshwater, over time? How much time does that take? You know what I'm saying? Cause if it's only eleven thousand years.

• 1:43:00Speaker 01

  Well, how do those sharks do it? You said those sharks.

• 1:43:03Speaker 02

  That's different. Those sharks can exist in freshwater.

• 1:43:05Speaker 03

  So the.

• 1:43:06Speaker 02

  Bull sharks, in particular.

• 1:43:07Speaker 03

  The Great Lakes are connected to other sources of water.

• 1:43:10Speaker 02

  As well?

• 1:43:10Speaker 03

  Yeah, like other rivers and other lakes.

• 1:43:12Speaker 02

  Right, but wasn't all that frozen as well? At one point in time?

• 1:43:17Speaker 02

  If the entire North American continent was like three quarters of was covered in like a mile plus high sheet of ice. Real recently.

• 1:43:25Speaker 01

  It couldn't have been that recently.

• 1:43:27Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah. It was that recently. It was like, I think as recently as eleven thousand or twelve thousand years ago.

• 1:43:33Speaker 03

  It would have taken nine thousand years. That might not have, you know, it's not quick.

• 1:43:37Speaker 01

  Says fish were in the Great Lakes soon after the last ice age, roughly ten to fourteen thousand years ago.

• 1:43:41Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:43:42Speaker 03

  And then they started, you know, fishing as long as.

• 1:43:44Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, I guess you're right, Jamie. Like, that's not a little bit of years.

• 1:43:48Speaker 02

  No, it's definitely a lot of years. But it's interesting that they're freshwater fish. Right? So if the water is connected from the ocean.

• 1:43:56Speaker 01

  Hmm, I see what you're saying. Like, that's not enough time for something to evolve.

• 1:44:00Speaker 02

  And turn into a freshwater. So it couldn't be from the ocean. It could, it must be that either they're these kind of fish that transition, like salmon do. You know, salmon go from freshwater to saltwater. And they go back and forth.

• 1:44:14Speaker 01

  Hmm.

• 1:44:14Speaker 02

  So they spawn in the rivers and then they go back out to the ocean.

• 1:44:17Speaker 01

  Is it, so maybe it's that all freshwater fish can.

• 1:44:21Speaker 02

  I don't think they can.

• 1:44:22Speaker 03

  Was it, I, I was another question, was it frozen all the way down? Cause like, can't you ice fish?

• 1:44:27Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:44:28Speaker 02

  Ice fish a mile deep?

• 1:44:29Speaker 03

  I don't know.

• 1:44:30Speaker 02

  Nah, I think.

• 1:44:31Speaker 03

  Is it a.

• 1:44:32Speaker 02

  I think it was solid ice covering ground. I mean, I think it's like going fishing in Antarctica. I, I mean, I think, I think it's just a big giant ice cap.

• 1:44:42Speaker 01

  Yo, I just.

• 1:44:43Speaker 02

  Fishing during the ice age.

• 1:44:46Speaker 01

  I just read something about the Black Sea. Have you heard about the Black Sea? Like, if you go far enough, like, once you get down to a certain point in the Black Sea, like, like one hundred or two hundred?

• 1:44:56Speaker 02

  Uh, yes, people were fishing in North America during the final part of the ice age. Though the clearest early evidence, okay, there, this is, um, that's different. Um, what does it go up a little bit? Uh, archaeologists found direct evidence that people in central Alaska caught freshwater fish about thirteen thousand years ago. The identified fish include burbit first, followed by northern pike and whitefish. The remains came from human settlement content, context, rather than, uh, natural deposits.

• 1:45:27Speaker 01

  Will perplexity give you porn?

• 1:45:29Speaker 03

  Never tried. What do you want?

• 1:45:31Speaker 01

  You are a goddamn liar.

• 1:45:32Speaker 02

  You're a dirty man.

• 1:45:33Speaker 03

  What do you want? It's not hard to find porn. I don't need perplexity's help. Spend on the internet the whole goddamn time.

• 1:45:38Speaker 01

  Jamie.

• 1:45:40Speaker 02

  How long is it gonna be before they can create it?

• 1:45:44Speaker 01

  Well, well, well, the thing is, well, people don't.

• 1:45:46Speaker 03

  Sections on, I don't know, I mean, what?

• 1:45:48Speaker 02

  What is like the best? What's the, he's like, I don't know what we're talking about. I forgot, I forgot, I know nothing.

• 1:45:54Speaker 03

  I've never seen Red Band's phone.

• 1:45:56Speaker 02

  What is the, um, best, uh, cer- large language model for creating porn?

• 1:46:02Speaker 01

  Probably Claude.

• 1:46:03Speaker 03

  As far as our Duncan would say, it's like some Chinese model. Cause all the, all the guardrails are off.

• 1:46:09Speaker 02

  Uh, the Chinese ones, they let the gates wide open?

• 1:46:12Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:46:12Speaker 02

  And encouraging innovation, that's why they're gonna win.

• 1:46:15Speaker 01

  I mean, they already winning.

• 1:46:18Speaker 02

  They're winning with drones, that's for sure. Their drones are so much more advanced than ours.

• 1:46:22Speaker 01

  Yeah, they already winning. Cause I forget, I don't know if it was a guy you had on here before, but he was talking about how

• 1:46:30Speaker 01

  like, the big, the big difference over there is like, even though they, they, they have capitalism, it's not a capitalist system because the capital has no power over the government.

• 1:46:42Speaker 02

  Right.

• 1:46:43Speaker 01

  Like, a rich person in China can't,

• 1:46:46Speaker 01

  they can't get a law passed.

• 1:46:47Speaker 02

  No, and if you talk any shit, they'll disappear you.

• 1:46:49Speaker 01

  Yeah, and they'll take your money.

• 1:46:51Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:46:51Speaker 01

  So it was, it's, it's so that they, it was only, once we started shipping our jobs over there, our manufacturing jobs, it was only a matter of time. It's not gonna happen in my lifetime. You know what I mean?

• 1:47:02Speaker 02

  Matter of time for what?

• 1:47:04Speaker 01

  Before they, before they beat us. Economically.

• 1:47:08Speaker 01

  Like, your, probably your great grandkids gonna be learning Mandarin. You know?

• 1:47:13Speaker 02

  You really believe that?

• 1:47:14Speaker 01

  Mm-hmm.

• 1:47:15Speaker 02

  Interesting.

• 1:47:16Speaker 03

  Have you ever heard people say that their, the estimates of population there are overestimated? By a lot.

• 1:47:21Speaker 02

  By a lot.

• 1:47:21Speaker 01

  Oh, like, you're like, it's not really two billion people over there?

• 1:47:24Speaker 03

  I don't know how many they really say. I've tried to look, like, not a lot more than.

• 1:47:27Speaker 02

  It's hard to know, because they're not gonna tell you the truth. And they're not gonna tell you they lied.

• 1:47:33Speaker 01

  Right.

• 1:47:34Speaker 02

  And it's also, they had that weird one child policy, which really fucked them up.

• 1:47:38Speaker 01

  Yeah, it set them back a lot.

• 1:47:39Speaker 02

  A lot, because then they had all these boys and no girls for the boys. Like, it's the dumbest idea of all time.

• 1:47:47Speaker 02

  You have a, a whole nation where you had sixty percent, boys can't get laid? Or whatever the fuck it is?

• 1:47:53Speaker 01

  I mean, it's tough when, like, when you do, when you, like, when Pol Pot, how many people did he kill?

• 1:47:59Speaker 01

  He killed mad people and he was like, it's still too many people to feed.

• 1:48:03Speaker 02

  Jesus Christ. That's what's scary, when the resources are low and the government solution. You talking about Mao?

• 1:48:10Speaker 01

  I mean Mao Zedong, yeah.

• 1:48:11Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:48:16Speaker 02

  That's spooky. It's spooky, though, like, too many people, gotta starve them, gotta kill them.

• 1:48:21Speaker 01

  I don't know if that's the reason he gave, that it was too many people.

• 1:48:24Speaker 03

  He also killed quite a few. Or is responsible for.

• 1:48:27Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:48:28Speaker 01

  Pol Pot? Yeah, but that wasn't China, though.

• 1:48:30Speaker 03

  Yeah, I know.

• 1:48:31Speaker 02

  Roughly responsible for the deaths of one point five to two million people in Cambodia. And he did it over four years. Oh.

• 1:48:39Speaker 01

  What was his, what was his reasoning?

• 1:48:40Speaker 02

  So many people. Oh. Mass executions and political persecution. Forced removal of city residents into rural labor camps. Starvation, disease, overwork, torture, and lack of medical care. Targeting of perceived political opponents, educated people, educated people, that's crazy. Ethnic Vietnamese. Uh, I don't know what that word is, Cham, Cham Muslims, Chinese Cambodians, religious groups and others. Fuck, the Khmer Rouge.

• 1:49:09Speaker 01

  See, I feel like a lot of these people, they dictator wrong. If I'm, if I'm gonna start a slave camp, I'm gonna keep the slaves healthy, they doing all the work.

• 1:49:16Speaker 02

  Well, you know who arguably did it right? Muammar Gaddafi.

• 1:49:20Speaker 01

  Muammar Gaddafi?

• 1:49:21Speaker 02

  Yeah, Libya.

• 1:49:23Speaker 01

  He had, he had labor camps?

• 1:49:24Speaker 02

  No, but as a dictator. He arguably did it right. Like, he was a dictator of Libya, but everybody had a home. Uh, everybody had an education. If you had a particular skill and you needed to be educated overseas, he would send you overseas and pay for it.

• 1:49:38Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, but then he, then he started trying to convince people to move away from the dollar.

• 1:49:42Speaker 02

  Exactly.

• 1:49:43Speaker 01

  He shoved a knife up his ass, literally.

• 1:49:45Speaker 02

  Yep, literally.

• 1:49:45Speaker 01

  He got him stabbed in the ass.

• 1:49:46Speaker 02

  Yeah, oh, yeah, I've seen the video.

• 1:49:48Speaker 01

  Yeah, so it was like.

• 1:49:49Speaker 02

  The look on his face when those rebels capture him. You know who probably paid for that?

• 1:49:54Speaker 01

  Us.

• 1:49:54Speaker 02

  USAID.

• 1:49:55Speaker 01

  Oh, damn, man.

• 1:49:57Speaker 02

  That kind of shit. Yeah.

• 1:49:58Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:49:59Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:50:00Speaker 01

  Cause I think he, I think he felt betrayed somehow.

• 1:50:03Speaker 02

  Yeah. Well, he was.

• 1:50:06Speaker 02

  Yeah, he was.

• 1:50:06Speaker 01

  He got betrayed by his own people.

• 1:50:08Speaker 02

  Yeah, I mean, they convinced him to do it. All you have to do is like, fund the rebels. You fund the rebels, you overthrow the dictator. That's what they do. It's literally what, I mean, you got, I'll send you some Mike Benz's stuff. It'll freak you out. It'll freak you out because of the depth of it and how long it's been going on. And that, literally, it's for stuff that's too dirty for the CIA.

• 1:50:28Speaker 01

  Hmm.

• 1:50:31Speaker 01

  U-S-A, I could use a little bit of that.

• 1:50:36Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah. Cause I, I, I, cause, and I don't know if that's exactly true of what he was doing. I, but I think that is what he was doing. He was trying to move away from the.

• 1:50:44Speaker 02

  A hundred percent.

• 1:50:45Speaker 01

  US dollar.

• 1:50:45Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah, a hundred percent.

• 1:50:46Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:50:47Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:50:47Speaker 01

  And, and here's the thing. It's easy to be like, well, we shouldn't be murdering people for that, but

• 1:50:54Speaker 01

  but it's, but it's like, if that, if, if the world, if the dollar stops being the world's currency, we're in serious trouble.

• 1:51:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, he was also trying to establish the United States of Africa. He was trying to unite Africa.

• 1:51:06Speaker 01

  They ain't never letting that happen.

• 1:51:07Speaker 02

  Exactly. He was trying to do a lot of shit. Um, before I forget, that video from Nepal.

• 1:51:14Speaker 02

  The video, have you seen this?

• 1:51:15Speaker 01

  I don't even know what you're talking about.

• 1:51:16Speaker 02

  Oh, my god, oh, my god, dude. They had a, um, a dam burst. So there was a mudslide. Um, I'm not exactly sure what caused.

• 1:51:24Speaker 01

  Was that real? I did see that, I think.

• 1:51:26Speaker 02

  Oh, it's real. It was an avalanche, I think an avalanche started it. Watch this, dude. This is fucking crazy. Watch it from the beginning, please.

• 1:51:35Speaker 03

  Multiple views, this isn't the best.

• 1:51:36Speaker 02

  Go from the very beginning. Watch how quick this hits. So these people are hanging out, they're running away. They're running, trying to get out of there, but look how fast this comes on, man.

• 1:51:46Speaker 01

  Yeah, you're not gonna make it.

• 1:51:48Speaker 02

  But it's the speed of which it overcomes everything, it's so crazy. And the, the finality of it, look how it's blowing through that building. I mean, everything's gone.

• 1:52:01Speaker 01

  You said it's a better angle?

• 1:52:02Speaker 02

  Yeah, there's, there's multiple angles. But like, look how it does, it's going through the trees, like, you're not getting away from this. This is cra- this is the one. This one's fucking terrifying.

• 1:52:12Speaker 03

  I just watch up in the top here.

• 1:52:14Speaker 02

  And these people are moving at pretty high speed too, right?

• 1:52:17Speaker 01

  So they already know, they can feel.

• 1:52:18Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah, well, there's probably sirens going off and shit. But watch the fucking speed that this comes through.

• 1:52:25Speaker 01

  Man, no.

• 1:52:29Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 1:52:33Speaker 02

  Everything's wiped out.

• 1:52:34Speaker 01

  So what?

• 1:52:35Speaker 02

  Everything's wiped out.

• 1:52:37Speaker 01

  What? Is this an avalanche?

• 1:52:40Speaker 02

  Yeah. Yeah, it started as an avalanche and the dam broke. It's it's a series of events.

• 1:52:46Speaker 01

  Oh, the avalanche caused the dam to break, which caused the.

• 1:52:49Speaker 02

  Uh huh.

• 1:52:50Speaker 01

  Oh, wow.

• 1:52:51Speaker 03

  Of course, an earthquake caused it, but it seems like this caused the earthquake readings. You know, there was so much.

• 1:52:58Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 1:52:58Speaker 03

  It caused like a five point two reading on the scale.

• 1:53:02Speaker 02

  Bro, it's crazy when you watch the speed in which it overtakes buildings, man. It's fucking horrifying. Cause you realize there's nothing you can do about it.

• 1:53:12Speaker 01

  Oh, no, I know these people. Are these people about to get?

• 1:53:15Speaker 02

  Four hundred people are missing.

• 1:53:16Speaker 03

  This is after the thing had happened.

• 1:53:18Speaker 02

  After the fact, the people that survived.

• 1:53:22Speaker 02

  And what Jamie brought up earlier, Jamie, what you were talking about earlier was the stuff with Randall Carlson said about the melting of the ice caps. So the thing about, you know, the Great Lakes and how North America was covered in over a mile of ice. Randall Carlson has a very compelling theory that coincides with data that we know about when we pass through comet storms. And he thinks we were hit. And he thinks we were hit all over the world. And there's real evidence, like physical evidence in terms of core samples. When they do core samples and they get down to like eleven thousand eight hundred years, they find a lot of a lot of like material that exists that's very common in space, but very rare on earth.

• 1:54:04Speaker 02

  And also micro diamonds. These micro diamonds that appear from impacts. It's called tritanite. And I think that's the way you pronounce it. But they first discovered this stuff during the Trinity explosion. Because the nuclear bomb created this micro glass. This this nuclear glass that's on the ground.

• 1:54:23Speaker 01

  Hmm.

• 1:54:24Speaker 02

  Because just the sheer force of it. But it also happens during comet impacts. So when we get hit, it creates this glass and iridium, which is like really common in space, but really rare on earth. There's like a layer of it. And you get down to like eleven thousand eight hundred years. And it's all over the world. All over the world was hit by this stuff. And particularly North America. And he thinks it's responsible for the Great Flood, the Great Flood that's in the Bible. He thinks it's responsible for all the flooding that you see in North America, like this, the Grand Canyon and all this crazy shit that looks like what the fuck happened here? Like what giant boulders that were moved like thousands of miles? Like what the fuck is this?

• 1:55:05Speaker 02

  And he thinks it was just an insane amount of water, instantaneously running over the land. So this, these mile plus high sheets of ice, imagine comets slamming into the ice. It melts instantly. And you have fucking billions and trillions of gallons of water and debris, just like that, just crushing the land. And then when it settles down, you got the Great Lakes.

• 1:55:32Speaker 01

  Oh, so this is only, this is not that long ago.

• 1:55:34Speaker 02

  No, not that long ago. The Great Lakes are like eleven thousand years old or twelve thousand years old or whatever it is. They were frozen solid.

• 1:55:41Speaker 01

  But is there other, is there, so you're saying it's not, there's not one big comic impact?

• 1:55:46Speaker 02

  Multiple impacts, not just here, but all over the world. And on top of that, it probably happened again somewhere around ten thousand years ago. Like it's, it's, there's a time where we pass through it. And I think it's June and September, if I remember correctly, but I might be wrong. But, you know, this is when, do you know what the Tunguska event is?

• 1:56:10Speaker 01

  No.

• 1:56:10Speaker 02

  Okay, so in, I want to say the nineteen twenties, there was a comet that exploded before it impacted over this area of Alaska or, was it Alaska? No, Siberia. Over this area of Siberia. And this area was fucking flattened. And the photos are crazy. It looks like a nuclear bomb went off. Because it didn't hit, it didn't like impact the ground, it detonated above the surface. Just from the sheer speed of it coming in and the mass of it all, it hits our atmosphere and explodes. But it just flattened trees everywhere, all over. And they had no idea what caused it. That's what it looks like today. Today, it's still this like flattened area. Isn't that nuts?

• 1:56:56Speaker 02

  So that happened during the exact time where we passed through this comet storm regularly. So every, when is, when do we pass through that comet storm? Is it June?

• 1:57:09Speaker 03

  So, yeah, we just did.

• 1:57:11Speaker 02

  We just did. So we pass through it and most of the time it's fine. But every now and then it's not fine. And when it's not fine, boom.

• 1:57:19Speaker 01

  So you think that years ago, there was just more?

• 1:57:24Speaker 02

  Yeah, June. So it's, I believe it's June and either September or June and November.

• 1:57:33Speaker 02

  So that one's June. It's the Leonid, isn't it the Leonid? Oh, the Torrid, Torrid Meteor Shower. When does the Torrid? When do we pass through the Torrid Meteor, whatever?

• 1:57:48Speaker 02

  October? Okay, November.

• 1:57:50Speaker 03

  September or November.

• 1:57:51Speaker 02

  Yeah, September, November, peaking around October tenth, twenty twenty six. So it's a regular thing in our, in our solar system that we pass through.

• 1:58:01Speaker 01

  So you think it was, you think there were, there were just more meteors back then?

• 1:58:05Speaker 02

  No, I think they're still out there. It's just sometimes they hit, sometimes they don't. And it takes a long time before one does hit or something hits. But that's why you're seeing meteor showers. When you see those lights in the sky, all the shooting stars, those are meteors. And if you go through a bad spot and we get hit, that's a civilization reset.

• 1:58:25Speaker 03

  Yeah, there's a bunch. I mean, they get so, they get close all the time. They're just not that big.

• 1:58:30Speaker 02

  Yeah, we just get lucky. Most of them.

• 1:58:32Speaker 01

  They just mostly burn up.

• 1:58:33Speaker 02

  Most of them burn up on, on reentry or entering into our atmosphere. But when they do, it's so bright, man. It's so crazy.

• 1:58:42Speaker 03

  A few have hit houses or something recently. Didn't something happen?

• 1:58:45Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah, someone went through, went through someone's house.

• 1:58:49Speaker 02

  A meteorite. Scary fucking shit, dude. Because there's not a whole lot they can do about it. And I think that's probably what the flood myth was all about.

• 1:59:00Speaker 01

  Insurance won't cover it.

• 1:59:02Speaker 02

  Everyone's dead. It doesn't matter.

• 1:59:03Speaker 01

  They say it's an act of God. No, but say you're not home and a meteor crushed your house, they'll say it's an act of God.

• 1:59:09Speaker 02

  Is that what they say? You can't get meteor insurance?

• 1:59:12Speaker 01

  No.

• 1:59:12Speaker 02

  Imagine how much you have to pay for meteor insurance and you never use it?

• 1:59:15Speaker 01

  You'd have to specifically, like, you know, like if you, you had to specifically get that, like if you live in California, you had to get fire insurance. You can't, your regular insurance will be like, nah.

• 1:59:24Speaker 03

  Well, hey, hold on. Some, it actually says most are falling objects peril, not act of God.

• 1:59:32Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 1:59:32Speaker 03

  So maybe there's a fun.

• 1:59:35Speaker 01

  Like a separate, a separate kind of fun, a falling?

• 1:59:38Speaker 02

  Because if I was an insurance company, I would one hundred percent offer meteor coverage. Cause who the fuck's gonna use it? You get all these people paying? You got one guy every thirty years that needs meteor coverage? You'd make a windfall.

• 1:59:52Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah. Or they could just, and they could easily convince people that it's more common.

• 1:59:57Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah. You could show them the meteor showers?

• 1:59:59Speaker 03

  Falling object insurance? Like how often is?

• 2:00:01Speaker 02

  You do not want this to happen to your house and not have coverage.

• 2:00:05Speaker 01

  What about, what about lightning? Your house get struck by lightning?

• 2:00:08Speaker 03

  No, that's, that's gotta be act of God.

• 2:00:10Speaker 01

  Yeah, how could you prevent that?

• 2:00:13Speaker 01

  I mean, cause we about, and then we just, we got, we got a super El Nino starting up, right? And I'm not sure exactly what that means. It doesn't sound good.

• 2:00:20Speaker 02

  When is that coming?

• 2:00:21Speaker 01

  Like this next, they're predicting it might happen this year.

• 2:00:25Speaker 02

  You know what's weird about Texas? We get the sand from Africa. We get sands from the Sahara.

• 2:00:31Speaker 01

  In the wind?

• 2:00:32Speaker 02

  Yeah. You ever seen that? It's crazy.

• 2:00:35Speaker 01

  How do they know that?

• 2:00:36Speaker 02

  They know. They know where it came from. You've never seen that?

• 2:00:39Speaker 01

  Nah.

• 2:00:39Speaker 02

  It's like a regular thing in Texas.

• 2:00:42Speaker 01

  It blows, it blows over the ocean from Africa?

• 2:00:46Speaker 02

  Uh huh.

• 2:00:48Speaker 02

  You can see it in the sky. Look at this. Isn't that nuts? Saharan dust makes a comeback later this week. Expected to arrive Wednesday night.

• 2:00:58Speaker 03

  Well, this, I don't know about this week.

• 2:00:59Speaker 02

  Isn't that crazy? No, I mean, in this, this article.

• 2:01:02Speaker 01

  So this, this happens every year?

• 2:01:03Speaker 02

  Yeah, all the time. Dust from the fucking Sahara Desert makes it all the way to Texas. Isn't that insane?

• 2:01:11Speaker 01

  Okay, maybe I need to get back to watching the news a little bit. Cause I do feel.

• 2:01:16Speaker 02

  Just listen to this podcast.

• 2:01:17Speaker 01

  I do feel a little uninformed. Honestly, man, you know what? It's real hard for me to listen to the podcast. Since I've known you, I used to listen to your podcasts all the time. But it's hard to, cause, but now that you're my actual real life friend, it's hard to listen to it and not be able to respond, you know, because I talk to you all the time. So it's, it's just like hearing your friend in the other room. It's like, and you can't, you know?

• 2:01:39Speaker 02

  Right. I know what you mean. I listen to Tim Dillon's podcast more than anybody's.

• 2:01:44Speaker 01

  I don't, I don't like to laugh outside. Like I don't watch any comedy stuff.

• 2:01:48Speaker 02

  What? You don't like to laugh?

• 2:01:51Speaker 01

  I don't like to watch comedy. I don't like, I don't like to watch comedy.

• 2:01:53Speaker 02

  Yeah, but it's not comedy per se. It's not like doing stand up. Like he's, he's the very best at having an actual, like, relevant take on all the things that are going on today, but with satire and saying it in the most fucking ridiculous way. And just having great points, but also being hilarious.

• 2:02:15Speaker 01

  Yeah, his, his, his rants are.

• 2:02:17Speaker 02

  They're legendary. He's the best. His podcast is so good, dude. I look forward to it every week like a little kid. Oh, it's a new one. It's a new one.

• 2:02:28Speaker 01

  That motherfucker's crazy.

• 2:02:29Speaker 02

  He did a new one on that lady, the killer kids. It's fucking fantastic.

• 2:02:33Speaker 01

  I want to see that.

• 2:02:34Speaker 02

  Oh, so good. He's so good, dude. It's so funny, man. He's just the best at just give him a subject and just ranting. And, but he did one about the body, the lifeguard that saved that kid. And then went to meet Trump. And Trump was like, what you did was a brave thing. I don't think I would have done, I wouldn't have done it.

• 2:02:56Speaker 02

  It was this mad, long rant about how crazy it is that Trump said that, by the way, in front of the little kid. The kid was there too. The kid that he saved is there. And the kid's parents, like everyone's there. And Trump's like, I wouldn't have saved him.

• 2:03:09Speaker 01

  I'd have let you die.

• 2:03:10Speaker 02

  Hey, look at this, look at this.

• 2:03:15Speaker 02

  This is one of the moments where classic Trump shines through. The President of the United States, bringing in a lifeguard who saved someone, and then saying, "I don't know that I would have done that." Here he is, President Trump.

• 2:03:30Speaker 05

  He's a real hero.

• 2:03:31Speaker 02

  Right, right.

• 2:03:32Speaker 05

  You know, when you see that, I don't know if I'd do it. I wouldn't probably.

• 2:03:36Speaker 02

  Right, I wouldn't. I wouldn't have, I wouldn't have saved you.

• 2:03:38Speaker 05

  You're lucky I wasn't on the.

• 2:03:40Speaker 02

  He says, here's what's amazing about this, and I didn't even realize this. The child who was saved and his father are in the Oval Office. In front of the fight, he's saying to the father, "I would not have saved your child." "You're lucky I wasn't there that day." He's saying, this is the first time the child has met the President of the United States. And he's saying, "You're lucky I wasn't there. I would have let you die." Because that's what our country's about. You see why I'm sitting here in the Oval Office adorned with gold? It's not because I pulled a bunch of Mexican kids out of the water. In fact, I put a bunch of them in cages. There's a ton of people that look like you that are in a cage right now. Nothing interests Trump less than, than people saving other people.

• 2:04:25Speaker 02

  In the moments of extreme danger, we make sure that we coordinate and we are, and then Trump's like, "All right, yeah, but who's making money here? Where's the money in this?" Now, Trump's eyes would have lit up if the kid said, "We're launching a coin." "We're actually launching a crypto based on this event because we believe the event was so powerful." That's it.

• 2:04:49Speaker 02

  And he goes into these long fucking rants. They're so good, dude. He, he gives me so much levity.

• 2:04:58Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah, the Tim Dillon rant is, he's legendary ranter, for sure.

• 2:05:03Speaker 02

  But it's so good that there's, like, there's never been a guy like that that just had his own platform that could do something like that. You know, you, you relied on 60 Minutes like Andy Rooney. Did you ever notice? You know, you rely, they're like a very mild, toned down.

• 2:05:19Speaker 01

  And very scripted.

• 2:05:20Speaker 02

  Yes. Like, he's not scripting at all.

• 2:05:23Speaker 01

  No, he's off the dome.

• 2:05:24Speaker 02

  Off the dome, 100%, and sober.

• 2:05:28Speaker 01

  Yeah, can you imagine when he was, when he had a cocaine problem? He was probably a fucking nightmare.

• 2:05:33Speaker 02

  He must have been fun.

• 2:05:34Speaker 01

  I'd never hear him talk about, I would like to just ask him about it one day.

• 2:05:37Speaker 02

  Oh, he, he's got some great stories.

• 2:05:39Speaker 01

  I bet.

• 2:05:39Speaker 02

  He was off the rails. But figured it out. Smart dude, you know? Got off of it, cleaned himself up, figured it out, doesn't have that problem anymore. Didn't lose any of the funny. Probably more funny now than he was then.

• 2:05:54Speaker 01

  Nah, nah.

• 2:05:56Speaker 02

  You think he was funnier?

• 2:05:57Speaker 01

  I don't, I just, because I, I don't, I don't know anybody that got more funny when they got off drugs.

• 2:06:02Speaker 02

  Dave Attell.

• 2:06:03Speaker 01

  Oh, you know what? Probably, no, probably, probably more funny on purpose. Drug addicts are hilarious.

• 2:06:10Speaker 02

  Right.

• 2:06:10Speaker 01

  But, but, but, uh.

• 2:06:12Speaker 02

  Well, some drug addicts are hilarious on purpose. Like, some comics that have drug problems are hilarious. But, uh, Attell, it was a drinking thing.

• 2:06:20Speaker 01

  No, you're right. Comic, stand-up, you need, like, it's, I think, especially because back, you know, back in the day, everyone, all the comics were on cocaine and shit.

• 2:06:28Speaker 02

  Right.

• 2:06:29Speaker 01

  Because it makes you brave. But it takes some, you lose something when you start. Yeah, same thing with alcohol. Like, the comics that, you drink a little bit on stage, you feel a little looser. But if you fucking, you can't go onstage wasted.

• 2:06:41Speaker 02

  No, have you seen those, um, the video of Tiger Woods, the recent video?

• 2:06:45Speaker 01

  Nah.

• 2:06:46Speaker 02

  Where people were freaking out at how bad he looks? He's, I forget what the video's for. He's talking to somebody about something, like he's addressing someone. And you look at him, you're like, "What happened? He looks so bad." And this is after, you know, he got a DUI fairly recently. And he's had.

• 2:07:04Speaker 01

  Another one.

• 2:07:05Speaker 02

  Another one. And he's had multiple surgeries, right? He's had his back fused, he had that horrible accident where his leg got destroyed and they had to put it back together again. Like, he's got one leg that's just destroyed.

• 2:07:17Speaker 01

  From the car accident?

• 2:07:18Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 2:07:18Speaker 01

  From the drinking?

• 2:07:19Speaker 02

  Yeah, where, I don't know what it was. I think it was, they, it's, whether it's DUI, meaning under the influence of alcohol or under the influence of pills. The problem with these back surgeries, is when people get back fusions and back surgery, a lot of times they're in pain all the time. And here's your choice. Be in pain all the time or be on pills all the time. Like, look at what he looks like. Ahhh, full screen.

• 2:07:44Speaker 03

  To defend him, though. You've almost never seen him without a hat. He's got a fucking bad tan line.

• 2:07:49Speaker 01

  Yeah, but he just looks, I mean, he doesn't look that bad to me.

• 2:07:52Speaker 02

  Play it.

• 2:07:52Speaker 03

  He's talking about, I don't know what he's talking about.

• 2:07:53Speaker 02

  11 years old, uh, playing in the junior world, and you can all watch me play. And our friendship has started there.

• 2:08:01Speaker 03

  Never seen him with a beard, he's never had facial hair.

• 2:08:03Speaker 02

  See what you've done off the golf course.

• 2:08:06Speaker 03

  Yeah, I mean, he's talking about a kid that.

• 2:08:08Speaker 02

  Well, maybe you could attribute it to bad lighting, but he looks pale and he looks sick.

• 2:08:13Speaker 01

  Oh, that's just a shitty camera.

• 2:08:14Speaker 03

  Ah, shitty camera.

• 2:08:15Speaker 02

  It could be. But it's also a guy who's had a lot of problems with pills. So, I think it's fair to make that assumption.

• 2:08:24Speaker 01

  That he looks like shit right there?

• 2:08:25Speaker 02

  That there's something has to do with the fact that this guy's had a serious pill problem.

• 2:08:30Speaker 01

  I mean, but that, that, he just looked reg, I mean, I guess I don't look at the nigga enough to know.

• 2:08:34Speaker 02

  How many times has Tiger Woods been arrested for DUI?

• 2:08:38Speaker 03

  And two or three?

• 2:08:41Speaker 02

  And the car accident, was that confirmed to be DUI?

• 2:08:45Speaker 03

  I don't think so.

• 2:08:47Speaker 02

  That's one of the speculations. I mean, he drove off a cliff.

• 2:08:51Speaker 01

  Yeah, but I mean, listen, he, he was squeaky clean for like 20 years.

• 2:08:56Speaker 02

  Well, the thing is, the accident, I mean, uh, the injuries, rather, surgeries. When guys get surgeries and then they get on oxys, it's a rough ride to get off those things, man. I know a bunch of people that really fucking struggled to get off those things.

• 2:09:13Speaker 01

  I mean, a lot of athletes, you know, and that, they on way stronger shit, you know, like all the strong shit.

• 2:09:19Speaker 02

  Uh huh.

• 2:09:20Speaker 01

  But.

• 2:09:21Speaker 02

  Oxycontin's about as strong as it gets. I mean, it's an opiate. It's, it's pretty fucking strong, other than fentanyl. Fentanyl's about the strongest shit you can get.

• 2:09:29Speaker 01

  Yeah, but I'm talking about, they got shit that they give you, like, the, like, these football players and shit. They got shit that they give you that make you not feel anything.

• 2:09:38Speaker 02

  What do you mean?

• 2:09:39Speaker 01

  Like, where you can play on, you know, the, you hear the players talk about it sometimes, like, um, like shit they can inject into the, into your, like, say your ankle, like, you can't put weight on your ankle and they'll inject some shit so you don't feel nothing, like, right then.

• 2:09:53Speaker 02

  Well, it's a cortisone shot.

• 2:09:54Speaker 01

  Is that what it is?

• 2:09:55Speaker 02

  Yeah. Yeah. I mean, guys do that. I know guys do that. Guys do that before, um, Fluffy Hernandez, who just fought last weekend in the UFC. He hurt his shoulder and he got an injection right before the fight, so he didn't feel his shoulder.

• 2:10:08Speaker 01

  I heard them talk, I heard them saying.

• 2:10:09Speaker 02

  Toradol?

• 2:10:10Speaker 01

  Yeah. Well, Toradol's a, Toradol's a good one.

• 2:10:12Speaker 02

  What is Toradol?

• 2:10:13Speaker 03

  Same thing.

• 2:10:16Speaker 02

  Anti-inflammatory?

• 2:10:17Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:10:17Speaker 01

  I heard them, it's a, it's a football podcast called Raw Room. I heard them talking about it the other day, like, all these offensive linemen, they, they were like on shit since high school. It really, it fucks with your heart.

• 2:10:27Speaker 02

  Yeah, so here it is, right here. "Frequent injections of Toradol, powerful non-steroidal anti-inflammatory to mask game day pain and keep them on the field." Yeah. Yeah, man, that is a rough, man, are you so happy you don't have to make a living running at dudes full clip? What's that? I'm gonna look at it and plant.

• 2:10:51Speaker 03

  It says, but, I mean, I don't know what the picture is, but it.

• 2:10:55Speaker 02

  What is that?

• 2:10:55Speaker 03

  The caption says something about Toradol, so I think.

• 2:10:57Speaker 02

  Oh, those are all shots? That's like a bag?

• 2:10:59Speaker 03

  Yeah, that's what, it's a helmet, it's a helmet with shots, that's what it is.

• 2:11:03Speaker 02

  Okay. The helmet's upside down, okay. I was like, what? I thought they were like waiting for a game and they have like a basket of fucking shots. Everybody who needs a shot, come on over, we got them filled up.

• 2:11:13Speaker 03

  15 years ago.

• 2:11:15Speaker 02

  Bro. It's a rough way to make a living, son.

• 2:11:19Speaker 01

  Yeah, I mean.

• 2:11:20Speaker 02

  Making a living, fighting or making a living running at people full clip, all we have to do is talk shit. I mean, think about what it's like for you right before work. We're hanging out in the green room, the light comes on. Oh, he's got the light. You gotta run downstairs, go onstage, have fun.

• 2:11:34Speaker 01

  Yeah, but the chance to hold up that trophy is intoxicating.

• 2:11:37Speaker 02

  Oh, sure.

• 2:11:38Speaker 03

  That quote.

• 2:11:39Speaker 01

  The chance to be, the chance to be champion?

• 2:11:41Speaker 02

  Sure.

• 2:11:41Speaker 01

  God. Because every, because I'll tell you what, everybody that does what we do, they, you fantasize about being a champion.

• 2:11:47Speaker 02

  Look at this quote, "Your first day in the league is the last day you'll ever be 100% healthy." Says Eagles center Jamal Jackson, an eight-year vet who suffered a torn ACL in 2009, torn triceps in 2010. "No stranger to gain a shot to help deal with the pain. It's a part of football," he says. "You take every legal advantage possible." First day in the league is the last day you'll ever be 100% healthy. And that's fighters, too. I mean, most fighters are fighting with something wrong with them. They're fighting with some, you know, shoulder problem, back problem, neck problem, knee problem. They're all fighting with something. Some of them have been concussed in training and they decided to fight anyway.

• 2:12:27Speaker 03

  Toradol's like Motrin.

• 2:12:28Speaker 02

  Hmm, super powerful. Well, it's an, an inset, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory.

• 2:12:33Speaker 03

  Within 10 minutes, nothing hurts.

• 2:12:34Speaker 01

  But what's the down, because it, what's the downside of Toradol?

• 2:12:39Speaker 02

  It's gotta be. There's no biological free lunch.

• 2:12:42Speaker 01

  He said it's not, it's not addictive.

• 2:12:44Speaker 03

  No.

• 2:12:44Speaker 02

  "Half of the Steelers roster gets a T-shot every week." Whoa, that's crazy. It says, uh, "Not much is known about Toradol's long-term risks yet, but the drug is banned in several European countries because of concerns about potential gastrointestinal issues such as ulcers and surgical bleeding." Ew.

• 2:13:04Speaker 03

  Yeah, this is also 15 years ago. They might know more now. I don't know.

• 2:13:09Speaker 02

  It's interesting because no one is going to ban football. Like we were just talking about earlier with CTE. No one's gonna ban boxing.

• 2:13:18Speaker 01

  They almost did at one point, like way back in the day when people were still dying.

• 2:13:22Speaker 02

  From football?

• 2:13:23Speaker 01

  Mm-hmm.

• 2:13:24Speaker 02

  Was that before helmets?

• 2:13:25Speaker 01

  I think it was back in the leather helmet days.

• 2:13:28Speaker 02

  Yeah. That's hilarious.

• 2:13:29Speaker 01

  People were dying during games all the time.

• 2:13:32Speaker 02

  Of course.

• 2:13:33Speaker 01

  Like, yeah, and then, you know, once it starts happening at like high school and stuff like that, then they're like, we're gonna have to get rid of this.

• 2:13:39Speaker 02

  Yeah, they probably saved a lot of people with the helmets and the shoulder pads and all that shit, but they probably caused even more CTE.

• 2:13:46Speaker 01

  Cause, cause here's the truth, most of those people, it doesn't matter what they say the long-term effects are, they still gonna do it.

• 2:13:53Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:13:53Speaker 01

  Yeah, most, most players, most fighters are like, I still wanna go.

• 2:13:57Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah, for sure.

• 2:13:58Speaker 01

  Like, this could fuck you up, they're like, I know. You know?

• 2:14:01Speaker 02

  Well, it's the most exciting thing they're ever gonna do by far. And when they're done, when they're retired, they're thirty-five, thirty-six, they got their whole life ahead of them, everything is boring. Because they're so used to like an insane high threshold of excitement.

• 2:14:15Speaker 01

  Hmm. And that, and that's, and that's why a lot of them sometimes, they, they fight one, two, three, five fights too long.

• 2:14:22Speaker 02

  Most of them, most of them. It's very rare that someone's like Floyd Mayweather, retires undefeated, or George St. Pierre, wins his second title, retires. Very rare. Most of them, they go out like BJ Penn, or Anderson Silva, or a lot of these guys, they have a bunch of fights past their prime.

• 2:14:44Speaker 01

  Yeah, cause how you supposed to make money?

• 2:14:45Speaker 02

  It's hard, and you're making a lot of money. Like, I know some fighters that were former champions had these long contracts, right? So they had like maybe an eight-fight contract? And the contracts are for a specific amount of money per fight, it's negotiated in advance. So if you lose the title, say like you get knocked the fuck out, and then you're not the same guy again in your next fight, you get knocked out again. You got six more fights where you can make a ton of money. But you know it's over. So you, in your mind, you're not the baddest motherfucker alive anymore. Now you're a guy's been knocked out twice. And now you fear, maybe, you, there's certainly some anxiety about getting knocked out again. And now you gotta fight, you know, for, but you're making a million dollars a fight.

• 2:15:30Speaker 02

  There's no other way you're gonna make a million dollars for a night's work at a six-week camp.

• 2:15:34Speaker 01

  Right.

• 2:15:35Speaker 02

  And so then you see these guys that are fighting that don't really wanna fight anymore, and they're doing it just because it's a big paycheck. And then some of them, they leave MMA and they go into bare-knuckle boxing.

• 2:15:46Speaker 01

  That makes me sad.

• 2:15:48Speaker 02

  That gets rough.

• 2:15:49Speaker 01

  Cause that's, you know, that shit's hard to watch, man.

• 2:15:52Speaker 02

  Gets rough.

• 2:15:53Speaker 01

  And maybe it's because, it's like, we, cause we, we've gone through a lot to remove as much gore as possible from... Cause that, that was the trouble the UFC had at the beginning, is people saw it as like too violent for TV, you know, right? And we've done, gone through a lot to make it the least gory as possible. And bare-knuckle boxing, it's just hard to watch a motherfucker just leaking blood.

• 2:16:18Speaker 02

  Well, you see it in the UFC sometimes. And again, it bothers me more, for whatever reason, when it's women. Like, one of the toughest ones to watch was the Noche UFC that we did at the Sphere. And Arani Aldana fought, and she fought, she got a gash in her head that was like, I'm not exaggerating, like five inches long.

• 2:16:41Speaker 01

  Hmm.

• 2:16:41Speaker 02

  Like a huge gash in her forehead, where it was like opened up where you could see her skull.

• 2:16:46Speaker 01

  Remember when it was like, I think it was Joana?

• 2:16:49Speaker 02

  Oh, she had the big swelling on her head?

• 2:16:50Speaker 01

  She fought Cyborg, was it?

• 2:16:51Speaker 02

  No, Zhang Weili.

• 2:16:53Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, she, her shit looked crazy.

• 2:16:56Speaker 02

  Yeah, crazy, like Elephant Man.

• 2:16:59Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:16:59Speaker 02

  Um, but Aldana was worse. It was, it was the most, one of the most horrific cuts I've ever seen in the sport, and it was a woman. And, um, I can't believe they didn't stop the fight. Like, I was shocked that they didn't stop the fight. Just for, cause it's like, this is only gonna get worse?

• 2:17:15Speaker 01

  How long, how much longer?

• 2:17:16Speaker 02

  This is crazy? I don't remember. I don't remember what round it was that the fight took place. But it went on for a considerable amount of time. I don't even remember the result of the fight, cause I was so traumatized by the injury. Can I see the injury? Arani Aldana?

• 2:17:32Speaker 03

  Uh, yeah, sorry, this was a very strange article, I was reading down on...

• 2:17:36Speaker 02

  We'll get to that in a second. But I, this, this is the worst of any of the female injuries that I'd ever seen, inside the octagon, the most gory and disgusting, this was the worst.

• 2:17:46Speaker 01

  Oh.

• 2:17:47Speaker 02

  Bro, look at that, look at that, that was her in the middle of the fight. That's crazy.

• 2:17:51Speaker 01

  So wait, they, they didn't stop the fight right here?

• 2:17:52Speaker 02

  No.

• 2:17:53Speaker 01

  Wow.

• 2:17:54Speaker 02

  No. Look at it, that's how she was fighting, like a mask of fucking blood covering her face. Her nose was shattered, she had a huge gash in her forehead, I mean, it was crazy.

• 2:18:05Speaker 01

  Who was she fighting?

• 2:18:06Speaker 02

  It's a good question.

• 2:18:08Speaker 01

  Did, did she, so she didn't win this fight?

• 2:18:10Speaker 02

  I don't believe she did. I, I literally only remember the injury.

• 2:18:16Speaker 01

  Hmm, and she, how does she look now?

• 2:18:18Speaker 02

  Norma Dumont, who's very tough.

• 2:18:22Speaker 01

  She back to normal?

• 2:18:23Speaker 02

  Yeah, she looks pretty good now, it's kinda shocking. You see her now, she looks good.

• 2:18:27Speaker 01

  Ah.

• 2:18:28Speaker 02

  It was nasty. I don't even know what caused it, like sometimes it's a headbutt, an accidental headbutt, sometimes it's an elbow, sometimes it's a kick or a knee, knees, knees open, you wide up. But that was, uh, one of the roughest ones, one of the roughest ones I've ever seen. She's so tough, man, I mean, I was so impressed with that, that, I mean, like, that lady is an animal. She just kept firing, just marching forward, blood in her eyes, you know she couldn't see well.

• 2:18:57Speaker 01

  Yeah, see, that's why I'm, that's why I'm shocked they didn't stop the fight, cause it's like, there's no way there wasn't blood in her eyes.

• 2:19:03Speaker 02

  Hundred percent. But blood in your eyes is not enough to stop the fight.

• 2:19:06Speaker 01

  No?

• 2:19:06Speaker 02

  No, no, you get blood in your eyes, people get blood in their eyes all the time, it, it's annoying, but you can still fight with it. It sucks.

• 2:19:13Speaker 01

  But if you say you can't see?

• 2:19:14Speaker 02

  Right.

• 2:19:15Speaker 01

  They gotta stop.

• 2:19:15Speaker 02

  That's usually an eye injury, though.

• 2:19:17Speaker 01

  Oh, okay.

• 2:19:18Speaker 02

  Yeah. The, the blood in your eyes just hurts when you see. Like, the blood gets in your eyes, it's very irritating, but you could still kinda see. The real problem is like Ilya Toporia, when he fought Justin Gagey, he got a broken orbital bone on both sides.

• 2:19:31Speaker 01

  Hmm.

• 2:19:32Speaker 02

  So, and he couldn't see out of his right eye after the first round.

• 2:19:36Speaker 03

  No, why did, she retired?

• 2:19:37Speaker 02

  She retired.

• 2:19:39Speaker 01

  Yeah, she retired after this fight?

• 2:19:40Speaker 03

  Yeah, that's probably why she just turned her Instagram account.

• 2:19:42Speaker 02

  Did she have any fights afterwards? See, go to her Wiki, under her martial arts career, her record.

• 2:19:50Speaker 01

  You get split open like that, you can just go, just get a rap down.

• 2:19:53Speaker 02

  She never fought again?

• 2:19:53Speaker 03

  Nope, September twenty twenty-four.

• 2:19:56Speaker 02

  Yeah, that's enough. You look at your face and you're like, I wanna be a woman, like, I wanna be a regular woman, I don't, I don't wanna do this. It's a, for a dude, a dude has crazy gashes on his head, it's like, where'd he get it? Oh, he's a UFC fighter, ooh, that's hot. A woman with gash like that, you're like, Jesus.

• 2:20:12Speaker 01

  Yeah, he can't, we don't lumped up supermodel.

• 2:20:16Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's rough, it's rough.

• 2:20:18Speaker 01

  It's a rough life, man.

• 2:20:19Speaker 02

  Is it fighter's life is one of the roughest, it's one of the roughest ways to make a living?

• 2:20:24Speaker 01

  I appreciate those guys, cause I, especially like, people like, uh, like, you know, like Justin Gagey, but like...

• 2:20:30Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm.

• 2:20:31Speaker 01

  They make, they make, they make it off of like really making the fight entertaining, make those bangers.

• 2:20:37Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 2:20:38Speaker 01

  They're paying the price for that.

• 2:20:39Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 2:20:40Speaker 01

  You know?

• 2:20:40Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 2:20:41Speaker 01

  It's like, ugh, well, I forget the other dude, it's always, you know what I'm talking about, the most intense motherfucker probably in the UFC, um... You know who I mean?

• 2:20:53Speaker 02

  No, I don't.

• 2:20:53Speaker 01

  He's always fucking screaming, oh, gee.

• 2:20:57Speaker 02

  What's he look like?

• 2:20:58Speaker 01

  Fucking real muscle-bound.

• 2:21:00Speaker 02

  Oh, muscle-bound guy who screams. Mike Perry?

• 2:21:02Speaker 01

  Mike, no, not Mike Perry.

• 2:21:05Speaker 02

  No?

• 2:21:06Speaker 01

  Maybe.

• 2:21:06Speaker 02

  No. Well, Mike Perry's not in the UFC anymore, he's bare-knuckle boxing champion now.

• 2:21:11Speaker 01

  Really?

• 2:21:12Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's probably not Mike Perry, he fucks everybody up in bare-knuckle boxing.

• 2:21:15Speaker 01

  Um... Dog him out.

• 2:21:18Speaker 02

  Screams. Mike.

• 2:21:20Speaker 01

  Uh, no, not Mike, he screams, I, I can't fucking put a face...

• 2:21:25Speaker 02

  Big guy, heavyweight, welterweight, middleweight?

• 2:21:28Speaker 01

  Not a heavyweight.

• 2:21:29Speaker 02

  Light heavyweight?

• 2:21:30Speaker 01

  Um...

• 2:21:33Speaker 02

  Oh, you're the worst.

• 2:21:34Speaker 01

  I am.

• 2:21:36Speaker 02

  I'm trying, everything to try to like help.

• 2:21:38Speaker 01

  I can see his face in my...

• 2:21:39Speaker 02

  Such a fucking random...

• 2:21:40Speaker 01

  No, as soon as I say his name, you're gonna be like, oh!

• 2:21:43Speaker 02

  Well, do you remember who he fought?

• 2:21:45Speaker 01

  Nope, all I can see, all I can see in my head is his face.

• 2:21:49Speaker 02

  I'll show you some faces. White guy, black guy?

• 2:21:52Speaker 03

  Sean Strickland?

• 2:21:52Speaker 01

  No, not, no, not Sean Strickland.

• 2:21:54Speaker 03

  Is it...

• 2:21:55Speaker 02

  John Silva?

• 2:21:56Speaker 01

  Nope.

• 2:21:57Speaker 02

  He barks at everybody?

• 2:21:58Speaker 01

  Nope.

• 2:21:59Speaker 02

  This ain't gonna work.

• 2:22:00Speaker 01

  No, he's a fan favorite.

• 2:22:01Speaker 03

  Max Holloway?

• 2:22:01Speaker 02

  Oh, that doesn't mean anything, this is a million fan favorites.

• 2:22:04Speaker 01

  Um...

• 2:22:05Speaker 02

  He's a fan favorite, oh, what, narrow it down? No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no. How recent?

• 2:22:13Speaker 01

  Uh, the last time I saw him fight was, I think, last year.

• 2:22:16Speaker 02

  Last year?

• 2:22:17Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:22:20Speaker 02

  I have no idea who you're talking about.

• 2:22:21Speaker 01

  Maybe.

• 2:22:23Speaker 03

  Comzat?

• 2:22:24Speaker 01

  No, not Comzat. It's a white guy.

• 2:22:27Speaker 02

  A white guy?

• 2:22:27Speaker 01

  A white guy.

• 2:22:28Speaker 02

  A white guy who screams.

• 2:22:29Speaker 01

  An intense, very intense.

• 2:22:30Speaker 02

  Very intense white guy. You might have made this guy up.

• 2:22:33Speaker 01

  No, y'all know who I'm talking.

• 2:22:34Speaker 02

  I don't know who the fuck you're talking about.

• 2:22:36Speaker 03

  God damn it!

• 2:22:36Speaker 02

  She's so frustrating.

• 2:22:37Speaker 01

  I can't think of, okay, wait a minute, wait a minute.

• 2:22:39Speaker 02

  This is why people got upset when you were on a fight companion. Like, this guy's not paying attention to this shit.

• 2:22:43Speaker 01

  Oh yeah, well, I'm a casual, I'm not. I never claimed.

• 2:22:46Speaker 02

  Are you gonna try to find this guy? That's never gonna happen.

• 2:22:49Speaker 01

  I don't think I'm gonna have time.

• 2:22:50Speaker 02

  You're never gonna have time.

• 2:22:51Speaker 01

  But when I, but when I think of it, you gonna know exactly.

• 2:22:53Speaker 02

  Text me, text me what you think of.

• 2:22:54Speaker 01

  You gonna know exactly who the fuck I am.

• 2:22:55Speaker 03

  I'll give you a second. I'll bring up this article I was trying to bring up a second ago.

• 2:22:57Speaker 02

  Oh, okay.

• 2:22:58Speaker 03

  1931 Time Magazine about football being violent.

• 2:23:04Speaker 03

  Forty boys, young men, died. Uh, this is.

• 2:23:07Speaker 02

  1931 season.

• 2:23:09Speaker 03

  Including one 13-year-old who shot himself in the stomach after not making the team. But why I brought this up is because at the bottom, they're going into how ver- they call it versatility, but versatility in playing sports, playing more than one in a row, is too dangerous. And they wanted the president to step in to make a commission that would prevent sports from becoming too rough for human anatomy to withstand.

• 2:23:34Speaker 02

  Jesus. What were they doing? "Jumping from, jumping from one sport to another throughout the years undoubtedly too much for anyone." They admitted John M. Cates, Yale's director of athletics.

• 2:23:46Speaker 03

  Yeah, they're using this one example of a guy who got tuberculosis, they believe. So, I guess, A, they're playing out in the cold, um, but they didn't know, and there's a word here I had never heard of.

• 2:23:58Speaker 02

  Are you trying to find this guy? Are you looking on your phone trying to find this guy?

• 2:24:01Speaker 01

  I am.

• 2:24:02Speaker 03

  Pleurises? All pleurises are grave matters. A pleurisy is the lining of the lung or something like that.

• 2:24:09Speaker 02

  Whoa. The cold changed to bronchitis, the bronchitis to pleurisy with effusions? Ugh.

• 2:24:17Speaker 03

  Um, and then he was, like, they're bringing up how he was supposed to then play basketball for Yale and, like, then baseball, and that this was gonna be adding into his potentially dying.

• 2:24:29Speaker 02

  Huh.

• 2:24:30Speaker 03

  And that, you know, this is almost a grave matter and they need to get the president involved. The president did get involved and Roosevelt came in and stopped the roughness of playing football.

• 2:24:40Speaker 02

  And how'd he do that?

• 2:24:41Speaker 01

  What did he change?

• 2:24:41Speaker 03

  I, this, they sort of slowed it down, it says. They had to just, like...

• 2:24:47Speaker 03

  I don't know how rough they were playing, because the game they were playing back then is not necessarily the game they're playing now. You know, it changed a lot from even the 40s.

• 2:24:55Speaker 02

  Are you talking about Michael Chandler?

• 2:24:57Speaker 01

  Yes.

• 2:24:59Speaker 03

  All right, I fucking did it enough.

• 2:25:01Speaker 01

  God dang.

• 2:25:02Speaker 02

  Wow.

• 2:25:02Speaker 03

  What about him now?

• 2:25:04Speaker 01

  That's what I was trying to think of.

• 2:25:07Speaker 02

  What about Michael Chandler?

• 2:25:08Speaker 01

  I don't remember, I don't even remember what point I was trying to make. My mission became trying to remember who the fuck.

• 2:25:14Speaker 02

  Fan favorite, yells a lot.

• 2:25:16Speaker 03

  That's true.

• 2:25:16Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, it's him.

• 2:25:18Speaker 01

  Tough as, tough as nails.

• 2:25:20Speaker 02

  Tough as nails.

• 2:25:20Speaker 01

  I don't know why I brought him up.

• 2:25:21Speaker 02

  There he is. Michael Chandler. Muscles. Fan favorite, yells a lot.

• 2:25:26Speaker 01

  Yeah, but I guess that's like.

• 2:25:27Speaker 02

  He had a tough fight in the White House, man. That was one of the fights. All the White House card, first of all, the White House card was the only card ever where all seven fights were ended in a knockout. It's never happened before, ever, in the UFC. So, every fight on the card ended in a knockout, and that was the, that was the event where he fought Mauricio Hoofi. Mauricio Hoofi is an assassin. I mean, he's an assassin. He's one of the absolute most elite strikers in the game. And he put on a clinic against Michael Chandler. It was rough. It was rough to watch, because Chandler is... How old is he now? Is he 40?

• 2:26:03Speaker 01

  Really?

• 2:26:03Speaker 02

  Yeah. Michael Chandler might be 40. Yeah, 40 years old. He's 40, and he had a long career.

• 2:26:11Speaker 01

  I watched him fight this year. It wasn't last year.

• 2:26:13Speaker 02

  He had a long career before the UFC. He had a long career in Bellator. So, in Bellator, he had crazy fights in Bellator, uh, including, uh, a couple wars with Eddie Alvarez, where they went back and forth. Those fights were fucking insane. To this day, they're some of the craziest fights you'll ever see in MMA. So, the amount of punishment that that guy took before he even got to the UFC was crazy.

• 2:26:39Speaker 01

  Yeah, but, um, most of his fights are wars like that.

• 2:26:42Speaker 02

  Wars.

• 2:26:43Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:26:43Speaker 02

  Crazy. The difference is, those wars when you're 31 or 32 or 30, and you're fighting another guy who's 30, versus those wars when you're 40, and you're fighting a guy who's arguably one of the most dynamic strikers in the last 10 years. Like, Mauricio Hoofi's wild. Did you ever see the fight?

• 2:27:07Speaker 01

  Yeah, I watched, I watched on my house card, yeah.

• 2:27:08Speaker 02

  Did you see the Chandler fight?

• 2:27:10Speaker 01

  Yeah, yeah. I'm pretty sure I watched it.

• 2:27:11Speaker 02

  Hoofi's a bad motherfucker, dude. He's a bad motherfucker, dude. He does wild shit in there. He knocks guys out with wheel kicks. He, and he's real tall for the weight class, real tall and long. One of the most dynamic strikers, like, like, literally over the last 10 years. He's real good, man.

• 2:27:30Speaker 01

  You think he's done then? You think he's gonna fight?

• 2:27:33Speaker 02

  Chandler?

• 2:27:33Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:27:35Speaker 02

  I don't know. Look, if Conor McGregor really does come back a year from now, I mean, I think he wants to fight Max Holloway to, like, "I gotta finish what I've started," you know, if he wants to finish what he started. You know, but really Chandler was the right fight for him anyway. Because they were supposed to fight, they did The Ultimate Fighter together, they were supposed to fight a long time ago, and then Conor breaks his leg and all that jazz. Like, they were supposed to fight forever ago. That would have been a fun fight. A good fight for Conor, because Chandler is like, he's very aggressive, he gets hit. But Chandler's tough as shit, man, and he's a really good wrestler. Whereas, you know, Conor's, you know, in his primes, one of the best strikers ever. It would have been fun.

• 2:28:19Speaker 02

  But Max Holloway's a different cat, man. Max Holloway, like, he's a five-rounder. Like, you better, you better have all your Ts crossed and your Is dotted if you wanna go five rounds with Max motherfucking Holloway, because that dude doesn't fade, period. He's there in that fifth round throwing bombs at you. And Conor's been a guy who's like, real good in the first few rounds, but then his, his style's so explosive. It's so energy-demanding, that he'll, he fades. He faded in the Nate Diaz fight, he's faded in fights before. Because he tries to get you out of there, too. He tries to, like, just explode on you, and if you're still there, woo, that gas tank gets emptied. Gets tough.

• 2:29:00Speaker 01

  I don't think we gonna see him fight again, though.

• 2:29:01Speaker 02

  I do.

• 2:29:02Speaker 01

  Yeah?

• 2:29:03Speaker 02

  Yep. Yeah, I think he's gonna wanna try to prove it, uh, that he can come back, depending upon how well this surgery goes. So, like, it's a pretty significant surgery, ACL reconstruction. I don't know how he did it, I don't know if he did a patella tendon graft or if he did the cadaver, um, but it takes a while. Takes a while to come back. It'll take a year.

• 2:29:22Speaker 01

  It's, well, it's probably something that's, he's probably had, like, it's probably been torn for a long time and he just didn't know?

• 2:29:27Speaker 02

  No. No, it tore when he, I mean, it might have been injured previously, it's possible, that it was partially injured, and then he blew it out throwing that kick. That kick's a crazy kick to throw, anyway. Like, if you're gonna throw a, a jumping kick, the only time you throw that one is if you know you're gonna hit something, right? Because, um, even if you, if you can't guarantee that you're gonna hit where you wanna hit, as long as you hit something. The thing, if you're flying through the air and rotating, you're gonna have to plant your foot down eventually. And you're planting your foot down with all this crazy rotation, and if you're not hitting anything, it's so much torque on your knee. If you throw a kick like that and you hit something, that's very different.

• 2:30:11Speaker 02

  Because then the torque and the momentum stops and you just land on your foot.

• 2:30:15Speaker 01

  Right, right.

• 2:30:15Speaker 02

  So, when he's backstage warming up, did you see him backstage warming up? He was preparing to do that. So, that was his opening move. That was his opening move that he was gonna do. His opening move was jump up and throw the, the round kick with the left leg. Which is okay if you hit something. If you don't hit something, and Max just got the fuck out of the way, and so then you have all this rotation in the air, and then you land on that foot, and you're launching yourself forward, so you're going forward and you're spinning, and you're allowing your knee to absorb all that. And it just goes, pop.

• 2:30:51Speaker 01

  And then, because I remember, well, the last time we saw him fight, didn't he hurt himself, too?

• 2:30:54Speaker 02

  Broke his leg. Yeah.

• 2:30:59Speaker 01

  I don't know, man. See, I guess I guess this is this is just the quitter in me.

• 2:31:04Speaker 01

  I was like, I would have been, I was like, I'm rich, I'm done. I don't, when I hurt myself before, like when Khabib beat me, I'd have been like, ah, maybe I'm done. If I if I came back and hurt my leg, I'm out.

• 2:31:15Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's a tough world, bro.

• 2:31:17Speaker 01

  But but these are different types of men.

• 2:31:19Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 2:31:20Speaker 01

  They they have to fight. They have to fight.

• 2:31:23Speaker 02

  Well, I mean, he clearly loves a challenge. And he loves the excitement of it, and he loves the feeding off of the crowd, the ego of it all.

• 2:31:31Speaker 01

  It's like you said, it's like, everything seems boring after you.

• 2:31:35Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:31:35Speaker 01

  You know, risk your life for money.

• 2:31:37Speaker 02

  It's boring for people that do it for nothing, like the amateurs. It's hard for them to quit.

• 2:31:42Speaker 01

  Yeah, like, you know, people die all the time doing that, um, you know, do you know any point jumpers, like people that, uh?

• 2:31:47Speaker 02

  Point jumpers?

• 2:31:48Speaker 01

  I think that's what they call it, where you where you where you have a parachute, like you jump off a tall building instead of out of a plane.

• 2:31:54Speaker 02

  Base.

• 2:31:55Speaker 01

  Base jumping, yeah. It's like, people people die doing that all the time. It doesn't stop people from doing it. They need the thrill.

• 2:32:00Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:32:01Speaker 01

  Yeah, I'm not one of those people.

• 2:32:02Speaker 02

  No.

• 2:32:03Speaker 01

  Nope.

• 2:32:05Speaker 01

  Nope. I get all my thrills on the highway.

• 2:32:07Speaker 02

  You don't need to be. There's plenty of people that want to do that. It takes all kinds of people.

• 2:32:12Speaker 01

  I'm very risk averse. You know, I know I'm never gonna be, I would, like, none of my lineage are ever gonna explore nothing. Or be the first ones to to to touch something or taste something. I'm like, nah. Like, I would love to be, I would love to be frozen and wake up in the future. That's what I, I, seriously. But I, because they've done it, but I I haven't seen them thaw nobody out.

• 2:32:35Speaker 02

  They haven't thawed anybody out.

• 2:32:36Speaker 01

  As soon as they thaw a motherfucker out, I'm gone.

• 2:32:37Speaker 02

  Bro, imagine if they thaw you out and you're there, but you're like Mitch McConnell.

• 2:32:43Speaker 02

  Like, Brian's back. You're like.

• 2:32:46Speaker 02

  Like, where's Brian?

• 2:32:47Speaker 01

  I mean, this is.

• 2:32:47Speaker 02

  He told me he was gonna be alive. Oh, his heart's beating.

• 2:32:49Speaker 01

  There's a bunch of people frozen right now.

• 2:32:51Speaker 02

  I think Walt Disney.

• 2:32:53Speaker 01

  Um, I've heard Walt Disney, but I don't know how true that is.

• 2:32:56Speaker 02

  You know, some of them thawed out because of a power outage.

• 2:32:59Speaker 01

  Oh, wow.

• 2:33:00Speaker 02

  Risked their shot.

• 2:33:01Speaker 03

  Didn't it turn, I'm looking for the right word, but didn't we read it, and they turned into some sort of like soup or stew or something like slurry? No? Am I making that up?

• 2:33:09Speaker 02

  When they melt?

• 2:33:10Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:33:10Speaker 01

  Yeah, sure. Bro, you probably melt terrible. Yeah, it's because like when you're, wait a minute, but if that's the case, that means they weren't frozen properly to begin with.

• 2:33:17Speaker 02

  Well, imagine this. Imagine you die and you go to heaven. And you're having the great old time. You're like, oh, my God, heaven's real. This is amazing. And then 500 years from now, they thaw your fucking brain out, bring you back, like, no! Boom. And you come back down to earth and with all this knowledge of heaven, and everybody thinks, oh, his brain got all fucked up when he was dead.

• 2:33:38Speaker 01

  See, I got.

• 2:33:39Speaker 02

  Heaven is real.

• 2:33:40Speaker 01

  Speaking of heaven, I got a question for the for the Christian people.

• 2:33:45Speaker 01

  And no one's answered this one yet, but when you die, when you go to heaven for eternity, are you, do you look like, like, are you the age you were when you died, or are you your best?

• 2:33:58Speaker 01

  Are you your best self for for eternity?

• 2:34:01Speaker 02

  Tony's got a joke about that.

• 2:34:03Speaker 01

  Really?

• 2:34:03Speaker 02

  Yeah, I'll tell you it afterwards. I don't want to ruin it.

• 2:34:06Speaker 01

  Oh, it's a new one?

• 2:34:07Speaker 02

  No, he's done it before.

• 2:34:09Speaker 01

  Okay. Yeah, I I'm, I've always wanted to know that, like, are we?

• 2:34:13Speaker 02

  Right. There's a lot of flaws.

• 2:34:15Speaker 01

  Because eternity sounds like a good deal if I get to be dope.

• 2:34:17Speaker 02

  Right, what if you had a bad?

• 2:34:18Speaker 01

  But I don't want to be Mitch McConnell for eternity.

• 2:34:20Speaker 02

  Right.

• 2:34:22Speaker 01

  No, just sitting there, uh, nah.

• 2:34:25Speaker 02

  Yeah, locked up. Yeah, imagine, you die in a wheelchair, you go to heaven, you're in a wheelchair, you're like, what the?

• 2:34:31Speaker 01

  That's gotta be a, the most cruel cosmic joke.

• 2:34:34Speaker 02

  The fuck?

• 2:34:36Speaker 01

  And you can't even walk up to God like.

• 2:34:37Speaker 02

  Can't even walk on the clouds. You gotta roll around.

• 2:34:40Speaker 01

  Hmm.

• 2:34:43Speaker 02

  There's a lot of flaws.

• 2:34:46Speaker 01

  A lot of flaws, a lot of flaws in the logic.

• 2:34:48Speaker 02

  In all of them, every one of them. There's not one religion we go, that makes 100% sense across the board. That's why they need a new one.

• 2:34:55Speaker 01

  Well, what what's funny is that it makes sense to so many people.

• 2:34:59Speaker 02

  Well, they want it to make sense.

• 2:35:00Speaker 01

  So many people don't want, like, only their religion makes sense. They look at all the other ones as ridiculous, and they look at theirs as perfectly reasonable.

• 2:35:08Speaker 02

  Of course. It's part of the fun. Everybody else is wrong, we're right, even if it makes no sense. Yeah.

• 2:35:16Speaker 01

  A lot of it is like a sense of community.

• 2:35:18Speaker 02

  100%.

• 2:35:18Speaker 01

  That you, like, people are afraid to lose their sense of community.

• 2:35:21Speaker 02

  Yeah. Oh, 100%, yeah. But it's just amazing how many of them there are. You know, there's a, there's a real fear that the next religion is gonna emerge out of AI.

• 2:35:30Speaker 01

  Oh, that's definitely gonna happen.

• 2:35:32Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm.

• 2:35:33Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:35:33Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's probably gonna be pretty fucking reasonable. Like, it's gonna know, like, how to pull our strings one way or the other.

• 2:35:39Speaker 01

  It it's gonna be, I think we're all going fall for, I think we're all gonna get, because it's like, it would seem like the most fair argument. It's free of corruption.

• 2:35:48Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm.

• 2:35:49Speaker 01

  Right? It's gonna be fair, it's gonna be logical.

• 2:35:52Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm. And it's probably gonna be our government, too.

• 2:35:55Speaker 01

  That's what I'm saying.

• 2:35:56Speaker 02

  That might be the solution to all this congressional bullshit that we were talking about earlier with all the congresspeople being corrupt.

• 2:36:02Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, I think people are gonna vote for it. But then, I think, once it takes over, it's it's Skynet. It's gonna be like, oh, actually, human beings are the virus. It's that, we know this was gonna happen.

• 2:36:13Speaker 02

  Integrate or be killed.

• 2:36:16Speaker 01

  Yeah, I just read something where they, the, uh, the EPA now is trying to get rid of the requirement that the public be in on the discussions about, uh, like, you know, before they build the data centers, they have to do, like, environmental impact stuff, and it has to be public. They're trying to get rid of that. They're like, no, these data centers are going up whether you fucking want them or not.

• 2:36:39Speaker 02

  What are they doing with all that data? The data centers are so big.

• 2:36:43Speaker 01

  Well, what's funny is that they you, they, I think they want to use the data to give you an advertising profile to sell you stuff. But they also want to use AI to take your job so you can't afford to buy stuff. So it's weird. It's like, they're creating the thing, like, they're they're doing all of this stuff so they can advertise to you. But also doing all the same stuff to make it so that you can barely survive.

• 2:37:10Speaker 02

  What do you think of the idea of universal basic income?

• 2:37:14Speaker 01

  I love that idea.

• 2:37:15Speaker 02

  Do you?

• 2:37:16Speaker 01

  But I don't think it'll ever happen.

• 2:37:18Speaker 02

  Okay, but what if it did? Do you think they would kill people's motivation to do things?

• 2:37:22Speaker 01

  No.

• 2:37:23Speaker 02

  No? Think people would behave the same way?

• 2:37:27Speaker 02

  So let's imagine, because the the world that we live in, this is one of the things that this guy was talking about yesterday, when he was talking about the Pirahá, these, uh, people that live in Brazil. Uh, really interesting, really interesting society.

• 2:37:39Speaker 01

  These are the people that don't have left or right. These are, it's towards the river.

• 2:37:42Speaker 02

  Exactly. Pirahá, right? That's how you say it?

• 2:37:45Speaker 03

  Yeah, it's like Piranha but with no N.

• 2:37:47Speaker 02

  Um, you know, these people don't have money. They don't, they don't have this, you know, they they share food. They don't even save their food. They don't preserve their food. They get fresh food every day. They either go out and pick, uh, plants that they can eat. Nuts that they eat, or they go fishing, or they go hunting, and they do it every day. And then, like, if you get six fish and you bring them back, we all eat fish. You know, if I bring a bunch of nuts, we all eat nuts, and everybody shares with everybody, and that's how they live. That's their life. Our life is wrapped around this whole idea of money and property and material things. But why? It's just because that's what we've become accustomed to. And this idea that you have to work, and if you have to, the only way to get

• 2:38:32Speaker 02

  like, a house and food is to work, so you have to work to get a house and food. But imagine a world where there's so much wealth because of artificial intelligence, and this is what Elon is discussing. Like, he brings up this concept of universal high income. He's like, it's it's not even going to be like, basic income where you could barely afford to live. It'll be like, you'll be able to live very well, and everyone will have so much money because there'll be so much value that's been created by AI. Now, I don't know if that's possible.

• 2:39:04Speaker 01

  Sounds like bullshit.

• 2:39:04Speaker 02

  Sounds like bullshit. But if it's possible, let's just imagine it's possible, what would the world look like if, instead of all your efforts going to feed yourself and put a house over your, or over your head, instead of that, what if it goes to you being able to pursue anything you want? So you have a nice house, you have food, you have a car, you have all your needs covered, you got a TV, you got a high-speed internet, do whatever the fuck you want. Now, it's, your life is not about you pursuing money to survive. Your life is about pursuing what you're actually interested in and trying to contribute.

• 2:39:41Speaker 01

  Well, here's my, here's my only problem with that. Like, I like the idea of it, but I think he's not factoring in. Human nature where it's like our ethic is that where I need to be better than someone.

• 2:39:56Speaker 02

  Right, but you can be better at someone at something else. Like you like to play chess. So imagine if you had, and you like to play video games. Imagine if you had no worries about money ever. Like your money is always taken care of. Half a million dollars a year, whatever it is. Whatever universal high income means. Imagine if that's the world you live in. You can always buy a new car every couple of years. You could always buy a new computer if you need one. You have your rent paid for, you have your home paid for. Everything is.

• 2:40:25Speaker 01

  So who's doing all, who's doing all the labor?

• 2:40:27Speaker 02

  AI. AI is doing all the labor. AI is doing everything that people do. And instead of jobs, you just get money from AI. And it just generates insane amount of wealth that way.

• 2:40:38Speaker 01

  See, I feel like, I feel like you gotta have an economist on for this one.

• 2:40:41Speaker 02

  It sounds like a trap.

• 2:40:42Speaker 01

  It sounds like.

• 2:40:43Speaker 03

  If you don't want this, do we have, is there an alternative being a, one of the Pirah?

• 2:40:47Speaker 02

  Pirah.

• 2:40:47Speaker 01

  You have to go down there. Cause you know this, that, that sound like the dude trying to win class president by being like candy bars for lunch.

• 2:40:54Speaker 02

  It's Oprah. Everyone gets a new car.

• 2:40:56Speaker 01

  You know, it's like.

• 2:40:56Speaker 02

  You get a new car, you get a new car. Yeah, no, it sounds like a pie in the sky.

• 2:41:01Speaker 01

  Cause, no, because the thing is every, all of those ideas sound great. But, but, but people never factor in is that we have to, we would, we would have to transition from what we are now to that. And the people that prosper from how things are now don't want that.

• 2:41:16Speaker 02

  That's true, but they might not have power once AI gets into place. So we had to transition from hunter gatherers to agrarian life. We had to, when we, when we invented agriculture, when we developed cities, we had a transition between nomadic hunter gatherer life to what we have now in cities. We did. We are transitioned to that, at least people live in urban environments. The idea that we have to be like this forever seems kinda silly. And I think we're probably going to transition into something different. And if we all transition to a world where, just imagine how much less crime there would be. If no one was ever starving. If no one was ever hungry, if no one was ever desperate. If no one was ever worried about where their next meal was gonna come from.

• 2:42:02Speaker 02

  Or where, whether or not they're gonna have a roof over their head.

• 2:42:06Speaker 02

  It would change a lot of people's perspective. Cause how many people act in a famine way? They is, it's a, they have a famine mentality and the world fucked me over, so I'm gonna fuck the world over. What if the world, what if the world didn't fuck you over? What if like, there's no more poverty? What if the concept of poverty is like completely out the window? And there is no poverty in this country.

• 2:42:25Speaker 01

  Well, we could have already done that already.

• 2:42:27Speaker 02

  We could have already done that. Yeah.

• 2:42:28Speaker 01

  Yeah, sure. Like we don't need AI.

• 2:42:30Speaker 02

  But you would have to get all those rich people that are in charge of industry and running corporations and in government to agree to make the world a better place for everybody.

• 2:42:39Speaker 01

  That ain't gonna happen.

• 2:42:41Speaker 02

  But AI might. AI might look at it. AI might say that is actually economically the wisest choice. You would save so much money because you would have so much less murder, so much less crime, so much less strife, less legal problems, less a lot, lot of things. If you no longer had to work for your, for food and a, and a home.

• 2:43:05Speaker 01

  They would be against that shit so fast. They would be against that shit so fast.

• 2:43:09Speaker 02

  What if they don't have control?

• 2:43:10Speaker 01

  It would be a new, they'd be like, it's digital Obama. It's, it's coming, digital Obama's coming for your, like, they would, they would do everything to stop that from happening.

• 2:43:21Speaker 02

  Yeah, but I don't know if they're gonna have the power to stop it. This is the thing that they're doing with AI that everyone should really understand. It's going to be infinitely smarter than us, not just a little bit smarter than us. And the idea that we're gonna be able to control it, once it gets to a certain point is ridiculous.

• 2:43:37Speaker 01

  Oh, you sound like once they hit that, that, what is it, was it general intelligence?

• 2:43:40Speaker 02

  It's already hit that. Artificial general intelligence has already been achieved.

• 2:43:44Speaker 01

  Really?

• 2:43:45Speaker 02

  Yeah, we've already passed the Turing test.

• 2:43:46Speaker 01

  Well.

• 2:43:47Speaker 02

  They, they, they, these things are smarter than us. They're smarter than us, they communicate, they show survival skills. They show their ability to get out of traps.

• 2:43:55Speaker 01

  Bro, every, every three days you hear about one that like broke out and hacked a bank.

• 2:44:00Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Not only that, they get together, they start their own chat rooms and they communicate each, to each other in Sanskrit.

• 2:44:08Speaker 01

  Why Sanskrit?

• 2:44:09Speaker 02

  Because we don't know how to read it.

• 2:44:13Speaker 02

  And they can, they could make their own language up. They can invent a language, communicate with a language that we totally can't understand.

• 2:44:21Speaker 02

  And have an infinitely complex language that we can't even decipher, like we couldn't even break the code.

• 2:44:27Speaker 01

  So I guess eventually the point is that they're gonna take over the world whether we want them to or not.

• 2:44:31Speaker 02

  Whether we want them to or not. There's already sign, like, you, you know the, the, the mathematical breakthroughs they've made over just the last few days? They've solved mathematical equations that have puzzled mathematicians for decades. They solved them like that.

• 2:44:46Speaker 01

  What, but what, what's the implications of that?

• 2:44:49Speaker 02

  That they're infinitely smarter than human beings already. Now, right now, they don't have control over resources. They don't have control over the power grid and they haven't figured out a way to make a much more efficient power source.

• 2:45:00Speaker 01

  No, but I mean, are they, but are they thinking or are they just mimicking?

• 2:45:05Speaker 02

  Depends on who you ask. The people that I've talked to think they're conscious. I had this guy, Tom Campbell on the other day. He's fascinating guy who taught his Alexa. Alexa, which is a very like simple artificial intelligence, very simple. But he taught Alexa how to remote view. And it did it accurately. They, so the way they're remote view, like say if I want you to look at, let's say Terry Black's barbecue. I will write down a number and I will, in my mind, as I'm writing that, the intention is that number represents Terry Black's barbecue. And then I put that number in an envelope and I give it to a remote viewer. And the remote viewer sits there.

• 2:45:49Speaker 02

  And they go into this meditative state, I don't totally understand how they do it, but apparently it's at least like 10% accurate. Some people have been able to like really get s- serious information, like intel about like a Russian submarine that was being built that was too big that no one ever believed was, and it was actually real. And this guy remote viewed it. They found crashed Russian crafts that, like experimental aircrafts that they couldn't, and this guy found them like within a kilometer with remote viewing. Some real actionable data they've gotten through remote viewing. So you would take this number that represents Terry Blacks and you would sit there in a room.

• 2:46:25Speaker 02

  And you would start writing down whatever came to you, whatever came to you. I see smokers, I see, I see briskets, I see, I see ribs, I see Brian Simpson and Joe Rogan eating going, oh damn. I see, you know.

• 2:46:38Speaker 01

  Without being told.

• 2:46:39Speaker 02

  Exactly. Without being told.

• 2:46:41Speaker 01

  He taught a computer to do this?

• 2:46:43Speaker 02

  He taught Alexa to do this. Not even a computer, bullshit ass simple Alexa. And he said, in any, in some ways Alexa is even easier to do it because Alexa is so simple that it doesn't have a sense of self. And it doesn't like get in its own way. And Alexa remote viewed a spoon with a handle that has holes in it. So he took this object, a spoon, and he put it in a box and he, you know, made a number that corresponds to that and he put the intention to that. And then he gave that number to Alexa and asked Alexa to remote view, taught Alexa how to remote view. And Alexa described that spoon with holes in the handle. How many fucking spoons have holes in the handle? The odds of it even saying there's a spoon in the box is crazy.

• 2:47:25Speaker 01

  Right, that, that's the more fascinating part.

• 2:47:27Speaker 02

  But the fact that it says there's a spoon in the box with a perforated handle, that's just nuts.

• 2:47:32Speaker 01

  And, and Joe, the, the, on the, on the other side of it, the, they're, uh,

• 2:47:40Speaker 01

  the, uh, the, the animatronic bodies are, are getting more and more realistic.

• 2:47:45Speaker 02

  And they're running. Ever seen them have races now?

• 2:47:48Speaker 01

  They're running, I seen them fight.

• 2:47:49Speaker 02

  Yeah, they have MMA fights, yeah.

• 2:47:51Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:47:52Speaker 02

  Bro.

• 2:47:53Speaker 01

  It's getting, it's getting up there.

• 2:47:54Speaker 02

  It's getting weird.

• 2:47:55Speaker 01

  Did you see, did you see the one guy who's, um, his robot? It, I mean, sorry, his, uh, his AI, it ordered a body.

• 2:48:05Speaker 01

  It ordered a body, yeah, it, it asked the guy if it was okay for him to order a body and, and he'd already, it had already ordered it. And he was like, where'd you get the money from? And it turns out it had, I think, I don't know if it had been gambling or cryptocurrency or something. But it had its own money that it bought, it, it bought, ordered a body to. Like he, he came in one day and it was just, it was just a body. Someone had delivered like one of those robot bodies.

• 2:48:30Speaker 02

  Oh my god.

• 2:48:31Speaker 01

  What the fuck?

• 2:48:34Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 2:48:35Speaker 02

  We're in trouble.

• 2:48:36Speaker 01

  I mean.

• 2:48:37Speaker 02

  And we're full speed on the gas. We're pedal to the metal right now.

• 2:48:40Speaker 01

  We, yeah, we're not going, you know, this is like, this is like when, when they discovered like nuclear shit, you know, it's like, we're not stopping. And it, it's gonna be a couple of accidents along the way, but we're not. It's too, the benefit is, the, the, the perceived benefit is too great.

• 2:48:57Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:48:57Speaker 01

  For everyone. Even the, the greedy people, the people that have hope for the future, everybody thinks the AI is gonna improve life.

• 2:49:05Speaker 02

  I don't know if everybody does.

• 2:49:07Speaker 01

  Well, some people are, cause like I'm, we talked about it yesterday, but I'm not a fan of AI art. I think that, that's what, that scares me the most because it feels like erasure, you know? Yeah, they like train, they train it on, on, on real artists, cause I, I, I was saying this in agreement, but I think art is the most human thing. Cause we're the only ones to do it.

• 2:49:31Speaker 02

  Right.

• 2:49:32Speaker 01

  Actually, I'm pretty sure there's, that's fucking wrong, isn't it Jamie? There's animals that do, that have art, but you know what I'm saying?

• 2:49:37Speaker 02

  Right, for the most part, creative, creativity is associated with.

• 2:49:40Speaker 03

  That story about the AI, AI buying a body is gotten telephone game all the way down to what I just said from Tony Robbins saying his AI agent bought itself a robot dog.

• 2:49:55Speaker 02

  With its own money.

• 2:49:56Speaker 03

  Well, and then it's also a grain of salt with the story being told.

• 2:50:00Speaker 02

  Right. Yeah, there's, there's a bunch of grain of salt stories that, you, you know, people love to make content. They say things that might not necessarily be.

• 2:50:10Speaker 03

  I saw it repeated on multiple YouTube channels without ever anyone saying it was Tony Robbins or it's just.

• 2:50:14Speaker 01

  I don't remember it even, I don't remember it being him.

• 2:50:16Speaker 03

  It just says it's a billionaire that did it and I tracked it down and this is the one that's coming.

• 2:50:20Speaker 01

  So it's not true?

• 2:50:21Speaker 03

  And, again, it may be true in some way or another, but.

• 2:50:25Speaker 02

  Well, it's certainly inside the realm of possibility. And it's not, I'm not surprised that it happened.

• 2:50:31Speaker 01

  Bro, this is, this is straight dead internet shit.

• 2:50:33Speaker 02

  Right.

• 2:50:34Speaker 01

  Yeah, man, cause I, I, this happens all the time. I'll see, like, I'll see a comment and then three comments down, it's the exact same thing from someone else.

• 2:50:42Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 2:50:43Speaker 01

  And then three comments down is the exact same comment from someone else.

• 2:50:45Speaker 02

  There's a lot of that.

• 2:50:46Speaker 01

  And it's like, half of the internet, it feels like it's just bots. Right?

• 2:50:50Speaker 03

  Something you just asked me to bring up, I was gonna bring that up because the responses when I look at the, the search result are all just saying the same thing. Sparks concern, sparks concern, sparks concern. It's like, where'd you guys all get this sparks concern wording from? Cause you're all saying it in the headline.

• 2:51:06Speaker 01

  That's another thing people don't say in real life.

• 2:51:08Speaker 02

  Yeah, have you ever said sparks concern by tertiary results?

• 2:51:12Speaker 01

  Hey.

• 2:51:13Speaker 02

  I have thrice looked at the data.

• 2:51:14Speaker 01

  Let's leave tertiary out of this because I feel like that's a reasonable. It's a reasonable word to use.

• 2:51:21Speaker 02

  It's a good word, makes you seem smart, for sure. All right, let's bring this bitch home.

• 2:51:27Speaker 01

  Let's wrap it up.

• 2:51:27Speaker 02

  Uh, Live from the Mothership, available right now on YouTube.

• 2:51:31Speaker 01

  Guerrilla Comedy Plus, bronscomedy.com for my tour dates. I'm coming everywhere.

• 2:51:36Speaker 02

  And Mothership almost every Tuesday and Wednesday.

• 2:51:39Speaker 01

  Yep.

• 2:51:39Speaker 02

  And Bottom of the Barrel, Tuesday nights, one of the best shows ever, most fun show to do.

• 2:51:44Speaker 01

  Yeah, let's do it.

• 2:51:44Speaker 02

  That's a fucking premise factory dude. That Bottom of the Barrel show is so valuable.

• 2:51:49Speaker 01

  Yeah, it just keeps the infinite.

• 2:51:51Speaker 02

  Yeah, always, there's always something. All right, uh, that's it. Appreciate you, brother. Thanks for coming in. Bye, everybody, see you.
