Joe Rogan Experience #2317 - Cody Tucker

Joe Rogan podcast. Check it out. The Joe. Rogan Experience. Train by day. Joe. Rogan podcast by night. All day. All right. What else? What else? What. are the odds that I contact you on. Instagram and the [ __ ] day you're. here is the day your book comes out? It's pretty unlikely. Kind of crazy. A. little bit, right? You know, it's kind. of like the universe smiled upon us. You. know what I mean? It's like it.

synchronicity. If you want to believe in. the simulation, sometimes I do. I'm with. you. I Sometimes you just see something, you're like, "This is this is a. simulation, right? We're not in the real. Yeah. There's there's a second and a. third and a fourth and so on. Sometimes. just things seem like God is showing you. satire like like there's like just a. little fun thrown in there and a lot of. it is on your Instagram page. I have to. tell you, dude. I have wasted so much. [ __ ] time, so much time watching your.

videos going, "What the [ __ ] is that. real?" And so many things I've learned. from it. It's actually, it's very. educational, but it's also very fun. Um, Tucker, your book is called And Now You. Know. And, uh, You Know. I didn't even. know you had a book when I reached out. to you. I just said, "This guy's got to. be interesting." Like, yeah, I mean, that remains to be seen, I think. But. we'll we'll find out. Well, you are on. Instagram. How did you get started doing. that uh type of a page because it's very.

specific. I I mean I've always been. interested in like random facts like you. know origin stories awards like movies. all these different things like the you. know dark side of history right and I. like telling people those stories and. they seem to enjoy it whenever I tell. them. So I was like why don't I just. like make little videos and clip them. you know clip them up make them look all. right. What were you doing before you. doing that? I mean, I've always had a. podcast. No one watches this thing, so. it's all right. Well, we'll bump that.

[ __ ] up now. Well, yeah, it might. change now, but um yeah, I mean, I. wouldn't necessarily recommend watching. the podcast, but it is it exists. That's. hilarious. That's all right. But, uh. that is, by the way, so much better than. please watch my podcast. Like and. subscribe. Whenever a video gets. interrupted by like and subscribe, the. last thing I want to do is like and. subscribe. Like, come on. I I mean, I'd. rather you just If you watch it and like. it, well, thank you. If you don't get. it, you get in line. There's others. That's how podcasts get good. Yeah.

Yeah. That's that's what I started out. doing with this. I never advertised this. thing once. Yeah. This this thing got. where it is. 100% word of mouth. Yeah. That's it. Yeah. I started watching. pretty early and it was But it still had. like a pretty decent following then. But. I know like you started like we started. in 2009. Yeah. Yeah. So, this would have. been like year a couple years after that. even that I But when I started, you. know, me and my friend Brian when we. started it, we weren't even thinking it. was a podcast. We we had already done.

these things where we'd stream live from. the green room at comedy clubs back when. it was on Justin TV, which became what, Jamie? Twitch. Twitch. So, we would just. be, you know, like Joey would be talking. [ __ ] in the green room and we'd be. having fun and, you know, we'd just film. it just for fun. Gotcha. And then um I. had a few friends that started doing. internet shows. Tom Green was the big. one cuz Tom Green had it all set up at. his house. He's incredible. Oh, he's the. best. He's such a sweetheart, too. Like. such a everything you would hope he'd.

be. That's who he is. Great. Great. [ __ ] guy. Yeah. And you know, like. really forward thinker early on. He was. like, I think I could just do this for. my house. Why don't I just do But it was. too early. Like this is 2007 and the. internet sucked. It wasn't ready yet, you know. No one had smartphones yet. It. was like, but he was patient zero, I. think. Gotcha. Him and then there was. this uh Opie and Anthony show that I. used to do. Oh, they were amazing. They. were amazing. And but Anthony Kumia.

started doing this thing live from the. compound in his basement where he would. do karaoke with a green screen holding a. machine gun. He was [ __ ] He's nuts. He's out of his mind. And he had like. beers on tap so they'd be getting. hammered and he's playing video games. He's a maniac. And and I was like, that. looks like so much fun. I was like, he. just has a studio that he set up in his. basement. Yeah. And so we just started. [ __ ] around with the most bare of. equipment. It was a [ __ ] laptop. webcam and uh we had like a USB mic.

Yeah. We had one of them blue mics, the. big stupid silver ones. We had one of. those 30 bucks at Walmart. That's how we. started. And then it, you know, we just. kept doing it. But telling people not to. go to your podcast is classic. That's. very fun. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's. Yeah, that's usually my thing because if. there are people that do watch it and I. think they like it and I like those. people. I'm I'm glad those people are. around, but it's not it's not something. that should ever become popular. Well,

you know, there's two schools of thought. today with the youngans like yourself. It's like just get famous at any cost. Get on TikTok. Share your dick and only. fans. What? Whatever you have to do or. not, right? Or [ __ ] that. And you're in. the [ __ ] that category. Yeah. I I could. care less about being having anyone know. who the [ __ ] I am, which granted here, you know, here I am. What's odd, but. that's the But that's also why you're. here, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's also. why your book came out today. It's like.

there's a synchronicity going on. Something there's something things are. crossing over that I didn't. So you just. you did your podcast and in those. stories that you would tell on the. podcast where you would drop some crazy. information then you decided to start. clipping them up. Exactly. So I would. end it with just like oh here's some. like halfass history which is what I. called like the segment and then uh I. was like oh here's like a half ass. halfass history segment and just ramble. about some [ __ ] from like Napoleon.

or something. I binged them today and uh. what cuz you know I was getting ready. for you to come in. It was fun. No, it. was fun. It was fun. You really freaked. me out with the whole outlaw Josie Wales. thing. Like I loved that movie and now. I'm like, "Oh no." Yeah. I can't watch. it anymore. Oh no. The guy who wrote the. book that turned into I mean tell the. story cuz it's so crazy. So yeah, there. was a fellow named Asa Carter. So Asa. Carter is this massive white. supremacist. Like he was in the KKK and. then left the KKK because they weren't. racist enough. He was like, "Y'all don't.

hate black people way more. like y'all. should be hating these people way more. than you should. So he made his own. version like a splinter group of the. KKK. And uh I mean he was part of like. he would show up to like Nat King Cole. concerts, try to drag him off the stage, you know. And um he became a speech. writer for George Wallace, not the. comic, but you know, um the the governor. of Alabama, George Wallace, who was, you. know, the segregation now, segregation.

forever. He was, as you said, a massive. piece of [ __ ] massive in the video. Horrible human being. I mean, yeah, just. an all around. So, he's speech writer. for that guy. He helped write that. speech, the uh segregation now, segregation forever. He was a co-writer. of that speech. Then things kind of fell. apart from him. George Wallace was like, "You're too racist for me, buddy." Like, like I just don't want him to go to. school with my kids. Like, he's like, "I. don't want them to not exist." Oh my. god. And uh yeah, so he uh moved to.

Florida, changed his name kind of. I. think to Forest Carter, I think is what. he changed his name to, and started. writing books. One of them was the rebel. outlaw Josie Wales, which you know, Clint Eastwood turned into. God outlaw. Josie. I guess back then there was no. Google. So you a guy could do something. like that. You would never know. How. would you know? Like that's how Stephen. King had Richard Bachman. Remember? Exactly. He wrote um Running Man. Yes, he wrote Running Man as Richard Bach and. other things too. But yeah, what is it? What is it? The Dark Half. Is that the.

other one that I that I really liked? Is. that Richard? Is that I don't know if. that was a I think that was a boxman. I. got a bunch of them that were great. That guy was so cocaine works so well. for him. You know what I'm saying? I. mean, if there's ever a dude and I know. he's clean and sober now and God bless. him and I feel terrible that the guy got. hit by a [ __ ] van. Like the whole. deal. It's crazy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Is. that the dark Stephen King adaptation? Oh, so what's Stephen King? It wasn't. Bachman. Oh, he another suited. Jesus Christ. I.

didn't. That's how prolific that guy. was. I had no idea he had a bang. He's. so prolific. He has extra pseudonyms. He. had a pseudonym for a pseudonym. Bro, there's not a guy who has ever lived who. has made more bangers, more just follows. Thad Bowmont, a writer who achieves. fame. So, it's about that. That's the. student name. The guy in the book. So, no, because if you look on the. purely, it's just the Google that the AI. get, right? But I think that's the. actual uh that's is that the trailer for.

the film or the poster for the film? A. writer who George made the movie. Yeah. Is that what that image is though or is. that the image from the book? Timothy. Hutton plays George Stark. So no I know. that but is that image is that from the. book? That's the poster. That's the. movie George A. Romero. So it says. Stephen King. That's why it says Stephen. King is cuz they're selling it. Yeah. You'd have to find a picture of the book. and see if like the book says um but. bottom line is they all say Steve. They. all say well why would you change it. now? It's like see even the see if the.

one that he wrote as Bachmann for sure. Like what did he write as Bachman? Well. Running Man was for sure Richard. Bachman. Okay. I see if Running Man says. Stephen King and I think Talisman. I. think that was one that also he had a. fake picture and everything. That's. amazing. That's so wild. I wonder who. that guy is. Rachel Manuel, a builder. and friend of Stephen King's literary. agent. That's incredible. He's just a. regular guy. Just a guy just some dude. Stephen King's like, "Hey, bro. I'm.

going to make you famous.". That's kind of. crazy, too. When he inspired it by. Bachman Turner overdrive about that, which is amazing. That's hilarious. BTO, one of the greatest bands of all time. So, he did write The Dark Half. The. surname Stark was later used in a King. Oh no, no. Okay, hold on. Richard Stark, go back. Richard Stark is. another one. No, no, no. Richard, we. should read the whole Richard is a. tribute to author. Got it. Yeah. So, did.

he write as Bachmann? He did. There. should be like a book bibliography. I. wonder last he changed it. At the last. moment he changed it to Richard Bachman, but then or was Gus Pillsbury with a. different one he was going to use. Oh my. god, that's hilarious. At the last. moment he changed it to Bachmann. So. Bachmann was the dark half. If I was a. porn star, my name would be Gus. Pillsbury. Or was it the dark half? It. says thinner. Well, see, they're. bringing up the dark half, so it has to. be that. Stark was later used to surname. Stark. I don't know. Either way, this. Stephen King, let's forget about his But. I think Running Man, I'm pretty sure.

Running Man is one of them. So, he wrote. so many good books that he's like, I'm. giving these people too many books. Let. me write some under a fake name. Mom, the biggest bookselling fiction guy in. the world. It's insane. Have you ever. looked at just like the first five. books? Maybe that's what The Dark Half. is about. It's like about his using of a. pseudonym. Maybe that's why you're. thinking. Oh, interesting. Oh, interesting. Oh, well that makes sense. The dark. But see, at the top it said running man. Yeah. Okay. Okay. I just The dark half. book is great. I've never read that one.

Well, I It's so funny that King was able. to pull this off because how many of his. [ __ ] stories about a writer who lives. in Maine? It's so crazy. The guy just picks his. home state, a writer picks his. profession, and then insanity ensues, you know, like it's all like a writer in. Maine. Well, and they're all based on. just things that are happening to them. like uh I can't remember which book it. is that's about him like going through. alcohol DTS. Oh, [ __ ] It's um I can't.

remember the shining. The shining book, whatever you would call it, bibliography. Bibliography. Bookography. So I mean if you look at his. bibliography it's it's insane. I mean so. many bangers. Carrie's number one and. then it's like Carrie Salem's Lot The. Shining a couple other it like and then. Christine which yeah I didn't enjoy the. dark half move. It's like but I hate. that cliche of the books better because. it's never better because you can see. the movie but they never nail it. It's.

just too hard. Well the shining kind of. does because it's being done by Stanley. Kubri. Right. But he hated it. Yeah. He. hated it because well he said that he. thought Nicholson turned crazy right. away and he wanted it to be a very. gradual thing. Yeah. You know who he. wanted? Who? Robin Williams. Oh my god. He would have nailed it. Uh Robin. Williams or Harrison Ford. Bro, you ever. seen Robin Williams in that 24-hour. photo movie where he plays Psycho? Oh, that's it. Dude, that movie is so good. Oh my god, it's insane. He's so good in.

it. He might be one of the greatest. actors of all time. Like it's crazy how. good he is in that movie because you. just really believe he's a psycho. Yeah, cuz he's so lovable at first, but. there's all these little signs that like. keep this guy away from your kids. There's layers. There's layers to that. story. Yeah, it's a that's such a great. movie. He was a bummer when he died, man. That That one bummed me out. Yeah, I've only cried a couple times when like. a famous person died. Uh that's one of. them. I like broke down. Heath Ledger. and uh Steve Irwin were the others.

Yeah, that was a bummer. Yeah, Steve, especially Chad Wick Boseman from. um Black Panther. And what else is he. in? He's a 42 play Jackie Robinson. The. the heartbreaking one. There's an. interview with him where he's talking to. that woman and he says, "I'm already. dead." And she doesn't know what he's. saying cuz he didn't tell anybody. The. dude went through the mill. He was. filming the movie while he was battling. cancer. while everyone was making fun of. him for looking skinny and creepy.

looking. It's like crazy. Yeah. Crazy. Which it is kind of like a gangster way. to go. It is. So did Nor McDonald. He. did the same thing. Nor McDonald didn't. tell anybody that he had cancer. Just. went up to Canada and died. He is. battling it for years. He told no one. Yeah. You could kind of It's one of. those things that you can tell when you. look back. Like when you look back and. watch like episodes of like his show, you know, Norm's show, and you're like, "Oh, you do." I know. You see the. puffyness and the drowned eyes. His eyes.

looks very tired. That That to me, that's the funniest human being of all. time. He's one of the alltime greats. Yeah, for sure. So, I'm sure you met him. quite a bit, I would imagine. I. accidentally sat next to him twice on. airplanes. Totally accidentally. And we were. already friends, so it was super cool. Like I knew him from the clubs and I. knew him from being around and and my. good friend Adam was a good friend of. his. He used to do that show that they. did together. Yeah. Adam Egan. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Who's the talent coordinator.

at the mothership? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So. I'd known Norm forever. And then one. time I was flying back from somewhere. and I sit down and then Norm plops right. next to him like dude like what are the. odds? And then we're having the most. fun. It was the most fun. The second Tom. was even crazier cuz Norm sits down next. to me. We're having a great time. Yeah. Just laughing and he's so fun. We're. talking all kinds of crazy [ __ ] And uh. he tells me, "Yeah, I quit smoking." And. uh [ __ ] hard to do, man. But I quit.

I feel so much better. I'm so glad I. did. It's so bad for you. I go, "Yeah, good for you, dude. Uh [ __ ] those. cigarettes." Right. So, we land and he. walks straight into the the store and. buys a pack of cigarettes and is. literally lighting it before he gets out. the door. And I go, "What are you doing? I thought you quit." And he goes, "Yeah, but all that talking about cigarettes. made me want one.". I mean, he did quit for a a little bit.

and then he landed. You know, I know a. lot of people have quit and a lot of. people I mean they keep pointing to like. it's like everyone's playing Russian. roulette with [ __ ] lung cancer. It's. so crazy. You're playing Russ like 80%. of the people don't even get cancer, bro. Which I'll take those off. I mean, look, I'll tell you smoking just looks. so cool. Yeah, smoking cigarettes like. God, I smoke cigarettes, which I need to. not do that, but God, I do feel cool.

It's also there's an I don't even give a. [ __ ] about my health. I'm out here. thinking. Well, I don't have to be. smoking a cigarette for people to. realize that. Nobody's looking at me and. like Jesus. But that's like accelerating. your demise. like purposely accelerating. your demise for um a head rush, which is. I I had do this thing once um but um. buddy of mine had this sketch show and. they had this uh sketch that they were. they were putting together this idea and. he asked me to be like this troubled.

poet guy and I said, "Okay, what what do. you think I should do?" He goes, "I. really think you should be like smoking. cigarettes. You should be like this guy. just smoking cigarettes and talk and I'm. like, "Okay, okay, okay." That's right. Yeah. So, I never smoked before and that. day I probably smoked like 15 cigarettes. and I felt like [ __ ] dog [ __ ] My. hands were shaking and uh my friend Adam. Ferrara who's a comedian who was doing. this with me, he he smoked and he gave. me some his cigarettes and everything.

How do you do this? How are you doing. this to yourself every day? This is so. crazy. In what time span do you think? The 15 sigs. Uh I guess we were doing it. all throughout the day. Okay. So, it was. probably four or five hours. It's quite. a bit. I mean, even for like a cuz I I. don't smoke like I'm not like a pack a. day or something like that. That's good. Probably a pack every 3 days. So, Oh, that's not too bad. But it's still. terrible for me. It's still not good. I. mean, I I try to justify it in my head. I'm like, yeah, but I don't I'm not. enjoy one right before I go on stage. I.

really do. It's uh a nicotine thing. Yeah. Yeah, it's like you can get. nicotine from a B, but it's the delivery. methods that's that's different. Like. there's there's something about smoking. it. And cigars is similar, too. Smoking. the nicotine. It it it's a very. different thing than like nicotine. pouches and stuff like I've never done. the gum, but there's a benefit to. nicotine. It's just the delivery method. That's what's terrible for you. Yeah. I. don't think nicotine's ever really been. proven to just be horrible for you. It.

actually is. neuroprotective, which like I love. saying those words because I don't. really know what the [ __ ] I'm saying, but it sounds like you're smart. Um, yeah, you know, um, Jillian Michaels was. in here the other day and she was. talking about it and she chews gum and. you know, it's neurop people, oh, you. trying to quit smoking? She like, no, it's it's actually good for you. Like, but most people aren't aware of that. They just think of cigarette smoking. equals cancer equals nicotine equals. you're doing something bad. Well, because the nicotine obviously gets you.

partly addicted and then makes you smoke. more cigarettes, which is horrible. So, they do there is like almost there's. kind of like some blame you could put. towards nicotine in that sense. In that. sense, addictive and with how much your. privacy is being invaded online. VPNs. are no longer just a nice thing to have. It's a necessity. Some people think, I. don't need a VPN because I have nothing. to hide. But that's exactly what data. brokers want you to think because their. profits depend on you having nothing to. hide.

business. And if you want to keep it. your business, you need ExpressVPN. With. ExpressVPN, 100% of your online activity. travels through secure encrypted. servers.

Well, the the real issue is that many. cigarettes um they add a bunch of stuff. to make them more addictive. Well, right. That's the the issue is that if. they would take all that out, they. wouldn't I mean obviously so bad you. shouldn't be breathing smoke into Yeah. It's like that's natural spirits, right? Those are the ones or American American. spirits. Yeah. Um but did you ever see. that Russell Crow movie, The Insider, where he plays the scientist? Jeffrey. Wand, right? Is that who the character was. that he was playing? That's who he's. playing. Yeah. Jeffrey Wyan. Yeah.

That's a cool That is so crazy that they. did that. Yeah. That makes you so mad. when you watch it. You're like you knew. Yeah. You knew and you tricked people by. making it more addictive like with. chemicals. Yeah. Look how much that's. crazy. Look how much sugars in food. But. here's my why is it okay to do that with. cigarettes, but they would never be okay. to do that with cheeseburgers. If we. found out that McDonald's is putting. fentanyl in the cheeseburgers and made. you come back and eat more cheeseburgers. there, we'd be like, "No [ __ ] way. That's crazy. You're making them more. addictive. That's crazy. You can't do.

that." The sugar that's in it, it does. the same thing. Sort of. I mean, kind. of. Sort of. Um, yeah, I would say it. does, but it doesn't. It's not killing you. Well, it kind of I. don't know. You know, it kind It kind of. can. It kind of can. It's like very low. dose poison. You essentially like if you. have a very good diet and you. occasionally have a quarter pounder, you're going to live. You know what I. mean? If it's a lowd dose poison, your. body can filter out most of that stuff.

the the real problem seems to be when it. becomes the primary focus of what you. eat cuz you just get in a bunch of. inflammation causing [ __ ] that your. body doesn't know how to get rid of. Your body's like, "What is this you're. feeding me?" But god, it feels so good. in the moment. Jesus. I mean, in the moment, it is Oh, that's. heaven on earth. I had a quarter pounder. once a couple years ago and I haven't. had one. When if I do go to McDonald's, I always eat filet of fishes. I love.

those [ __ ] You do? I love those. They're so good. They're my favorite. That's weird, man. No, cuz I can't lie. to myself and pretend that's a. cheeseburger, you know? Like, you can. lie and say that that's fish. Yes, that. ain't fish. It's a thing. It's whatever. it is. It's a sweet bun and a a. delicious salty fishlike thing in the. center with that tartar sauce. It's just. yummy. I'm I'm not trying You don't have. to justify it to me. I mean, I you know, I don't particularly like the taste of. like uh those kind of burgers. I like.

like a good smash burger or like an. In-N-Out burger. I'm with you. In Out. Five Guys, In-N-Out top top of the line. to me for like fast food kind of burger. You can't go wrong, man. It's the. Chick-fil-A burgers. Can't go wrong. Like In-N-Out Burgers are If you don't. like them, I don't like you. How about. that? Do you like water burger? Uh it's. okay. It's horrible. It's not People. want to compare it to In-N-Out. Like. Texas people get crazy. Like you're. getting crazy. This is how we had a. civil war. Like you got to look at look. at things realistically. Now in that.

war, I'm taking the Waterburger people. over the internet. 100%. The people are. not armed. No, those waterburger bubbas. are coming to I mean they started in the. wrong state for guns. Yeah. That's the state that's telling people. that if someone breaks into your house, you you should flee. You shouldn't uh. tell them to get out and shoot. Get out. of your own house. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's his name. You should gather up. your child and run up the hill behind. your house and flee and hope they don't. shoot you in the back. Well, that's.

that's a good idea. It's like you can't. It's like that piece of [ __ ] speech. writer like Carter. Yeah. Yep. You. there's going to be nutty on both sides. There's going to be nutty on the left. and nutty on the right. And it's up to. us, which is like most people are just. reasonable. Reasonable in the center. Live and let live. Yeah. Have you had. like an an ethic for this country? What. are we about? We're supposed to be about.

freedom. Live and let live. But the. problem is the people on the far crazy. screaming left and the people on the far. crazy screaming right are all [ __ ]. losers. Yeah. And those [ __ ] losers. make you be connected with them and all. their stupidity and poisons all the. ideas that they agree with on both. sides. And they're so much louder. So. you think there's more of them when in. reality it's like what 5% probably of.

each side. Exactly. And then the other I. don't even think it's 5%. They're just. the ones that are online all day long. And then on top of that, you get a bunch. of people who are paid to do it. Yeah. So, it's like, oh my god. When you see. tweets, like people get busted all the. time now. These air quotes influencers, they'll tweet something and then you'll. see like 30 versions of the same tweet. with the same wording. Like, what is. going on? That's hilarious. Like, for. now, forever, I'll never listen to you.

again. That's amazing. And there's Yeah. On both sides. That's so funny. It's not. a leftwing thing. It's not a right-wing. thing. I see it with [ __ ] everything. It's like there's like largecale. manipulation going on that's like really. nuts to see. Did you see about that. Reddit dead internet thing? Bread and. dead. I don't know. Did you see Jamie? Do you know about this? Like there's I. believe it's might be a lawsuit. So this. company um used a bunch of chat bots on.

I believe it was on Reddit. I I just. sent it to someone. I'll find it if you. can't find it. Um, but I think I forget. what the argument was about, but. essentially they're getting in trouble. for facilitating these fake arguments. like as an experiment. Oh, which is if. that's wild. For sure countries are. doing that. Reddit threatens to sue. researchers who ran a dead internet AI. experiment on its site. Deeply wrong on. a both moral and uh legal level. Well,

that's not good. So, this is what they. did. Um, change my view is the subreddit. Long been a contentious place for Reddit. users to post an opinion and understand. other people's perspective. Forum filled. with fiery but largely civil debates. covering everything from the role. political activism. um to the dangers of social media and. echo chambers. Okay. Lately though, not. every user posting on the forum has been. a real human. As 404 media reported this. week, University of Zurich researchers.

dispatched an army of Boy, Zurich, that's not a good place to do it from, guys. You shouldn't be involved in No, you look at you sketchy. Yeah. Research. uh dispatched an army of AI chat bots to. debate human users on the subreddit in a. secret experiment designed to. investigate whether the tech could be. used to change people's minds. The. optics were horrendous with bots. claiming to be characters, including a. survivor of sexual assault and a black. man who opposes the Black Lives Matter. movement. Worse yet, the AI models.

scoured the post history of users they. were applying to in order to be as. convincing as possible. Basically, a. formalized trial run of the dead. internet theory that much of the. internet is already AI generated. You. know about that theory, huh? The AI um. dead internet theory. So the idea is. that um AI becomes sensient and. completely fakes the internet. Fakes the. internet. Yeah. Pull it up, Jamie. Like.

well I don't know if it explained it in. that article, but there was a link in. that article under when it got to dead. internet theory. Uh there was actually a. link. It was right there. Where is it? Scroll down a little bit. It didn't have. No, it didn't have a link. The link was. actually about it passing the touring. test, which is it already did, right? Which is goes back to 2016. Oh, did the. internet die in 2016? Was an online. community think so? There's a lot of. cooks like people with schizophrenia, they get things right. Yeah, that is.

kind of the problem is they're not. always wrong. Well, eventually they're. right. Like Ted Kazinski, the uniomber, you know, that guy, his whole thing was. that technology was going to overtake. the human race, right? And I think he's. right. Yeah. You know, he wasn't. necessarily wrong. He was just wrong to. be blowing people up. Oh, well, he was. that's the really [ __ ] up. Did you. ever see the extra stuff? Did you see. the Netflix um documentary where they go. over his life when he was a baby when.

they left him in the crib and he never. got touched for like months? Which. immediately permanent damage. You're. screwed. You can't fix that. Yeah. That's how you get those wide eyes, you. know, where that's how you tell. someone's crazy. He gets in the Harvard. LSD studies where they humiliate him. while he's on acid. Yeah. Yeah. Cuz he. was part of the MK Ultra. Like he had. that professor that was like recruiting. impressionable but a highly intelligent. young men. And how crazy is that? MK Ultra is wild. That's the That is one.

of the most interesting the CIA in. general. I mean just like this is a. rabbit hole of just the craziest things. I've ever seen. But like all the Manson. stuff, which I'm obsessed with Charles. Manson, so all that stuff is Oh, the. Manson stuff's crazy. The CIA stuff is. not even a rabbit hole. It's like one of. them labyrinths that they find in Turkey. that could like 2,000 people could live. underground. You're like, who built. this? What the [ __ ] is this? How long. has this been going on? Like the French. catacombs where it's just like people. get lost every day and all that. If you.

go down the CIA rabbit hole, you'll find. a city like a civilization. Atlantis. Yeah. And then you have to think, okay, but also Russia has the same sort of. operation going for Russia, right? Right. Every country has them. Yeah. Everybody has the CIA, KGB. I mean, so. they have to exist all that. Let's all. get rid of the CIA. And then what? We. get taken over completely by Russia and. China. It's like, slow down everybody. Like there's a a nutty AI war going on. right in front of your face. You just.

haven't heard the bombs go off yet, right? It's happening right now. And if. they pulled that off from the University. of Zurich, which is kind of creepy, um. that a university would like do that, pretend to be a, you know, a black guy. who's against the Black Lives Matter. movement and a woman who survived a. sexual assault. You're just making it up. with AI chat bots. Like, this is [ __ ]. wild. And just to see how people react. How what the [ __ ] do you think it's.

going to happen? or find somebody who. actually is one of those people and then. see how people react if that's what you. want to do. Like you don't have to. pretend to be one. There are lots of. people who probably volunteer and you. could have a whole study control group, you know, have the whole thing. Yeah. You don't have to do it anonymously on. the internet under false pretenses. Like. you wouldn't have to do that. Unless you. just want to have fun. I mean, I guess. that's their But the problem. is anytime you're doing a study with. real people, they know they're in a. study. Yeah. What's that? There's a law.

like a um where like you can't something. about being observed like ruins the. thing whatever like it's part of like. the I don't know I suck at science but I. think there's something well I don't. even know if that's science I'm just. talking about like humans like if people. know they're being watched as a part of. a study you behave completely. differently. Yeah. You're going to. influence their behavior. Well it's just. like if you get asked a question to be. part of a survey you're not answering. that thing accurately even if it's. anonymous. just because you know that like your.

answer is going to be make you look. maybe a little bit bad. You'll you'll. church up your answer a little. Maybe. not outright lie, but if it asks you how. many drinks do you have a week, you're. not telling them the exact amount. You're not counting them up. You're. going six to eight sounds about right. Yeah. This uncertainty is why I think. we're super vulnerable. Yeah. Because. this uncertainty is uh why we're going. to be very vulnerable. Excuse me. Yeah. Sorry. Uh, we're going to be really. vulnerable to um any sort of electronic.

bridge that they start using, like. whether it's a a wearable or an implant. that lets you legitimately read minds, which I think I [ __ ] think is in our. lifetime. God, I hope not. It's so. scary, dude, because we'll give it up to. know the truth. People will give it up. to know the truth. Yeah. I mean, think. about what you how much of your data you. give just so that you can Google things.

Like, think of how much how much money. they make off of your data and giving. out your email address and all the. [ __ ] spam text that you get every. day. All the chaos. You gave that up. just for free internet. Just for free. Google. Yeah, I give it up. I don't give. a damn. I just give it all up. Everybody. does. But imagine like what Google would. cost. Like if if Google was a pay thing. and the only way you could ever know. anything about what's going on in the. world, you have to search it. Every. search engine costs money, right? It's.

like, whoa. But instead, you get this. free value. But wouldn't you rather not. pay? Of course. But it what if you paid. for it and then they couldn't use any of. your data ever? And it was a totally. like honest relationship. And you're not. allowed to curate the information. either. Yeah. You just have to like put. out the information as it exists online. Right. Right. Yeah. Um, we gave up. privacy. We gave up our data. And we. didn't even think about it. We didn't. even know it was a thing that we were. giving up. And then we're going to give. up sentience. We're g we're going to.

we're going to [ __ ] be connected to. the hive mind. Yeah. I really think so. Yeah. Because it's weird like with the, you know, online like data privacy. Like. you don't really know what it is that. you're giving up. It's not like normal. privacy where like if somebody asks. like, "Hey, can I take a picture of your. driver's license?" You'd say, "No, what. are you talking about?" "No, you can't.". Right? But they can get the majority of. that information through, you know, they. can track, you know, get your address, get your Well, they can find out even. more information about you through.

giving up like your your privacy, like. data privacy, but we don't like know, we. don't have like a list of what they're. getting. I mean, I guess you do if you. read that whole damn thing, but who's. reading that? Like the privacy terms? Nobody reads that [ __ ] Somebody told me. there was something that we might have. to edit this out if it's not true, but. somebody told me there's something. [ __ ] up about Google's uh. terms. and whatever terms apply there with the. thing that you have to agree to that it.

has something in there that you'll agree. to mediation. To mediation? Yeah. Like in case of some. sort of a dispute, a legal dispute that. you you've agreed to mediation in the So. you're not going to sue them. So you. can't really Yeah. Like whenever you get. hired at a new job, they have those. kinds of like clauses typically. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's so weird. If it's. true. Yeah. Well, but we need to find. out if it's true. Somebody was telling. telling it to me and I was like, "Wait, what?". That sounds insane.

So I typed that in. What pops up? Except. it's required by applicable law. Mediation is voluntary and neither you. nor Google are obligated to settle. disputes through mediation. What the hell does that mean? I don't. know the context in which you were told. it because this is like for but this is. I said Uber. I thought you said Google. I thought Google. Oh, I'm sorry. Uber. Oh, okay. Okay. Uber. I'm sorry. I was I. probably mumbled.

Uber. Okay. Uber's terms of service. include a binding arbitration clause, meaning users agree to resolve disputes. through arbitration rather than in. court. This arbitration is individual. and non-consolidated, meaning you can't. join with others in a class action suit. Uber also limits its liability and. states that drivers are independent. contractors, not employees. If you have. a dispute, you could try to resolve it. through mediation, but it may ultimately.

be resolved through arbitration. That's. That's wild. Jesus, that's kind of wild. It's like we have our own rules. Yeah. Yeah. Our laws. No, no, no. Forget about. the laws of the land. No. You agree to a. legal contract. That's like very sneaky. Very, right? Cuz if there's like laws, if we have laws to prevent fraud and. laws to prevent negligence, we have. those for companies and you're a. company. Like, no, we're not. We're not. even a company. There's people, they're. independent contractors, right? Oh, you. have no liability at all and you make. all the money. What a great deal. Who. did you pay? Who did you Who did you.

[ __ ] pay off to get that sweetheart. of a deal? Yeah. And also, how many. people know what arbitration is? Because. I'll be honest, I don't know what it is. I was just kind of going with it. Sounds. scary. If you got to go through. arbitration arbitration is I just agreed. with everything. Well, I think what. essentially they're saying that you have. to have a conversation with them outside. of like a judge and jury ruling, you. know what I mean? Like we have to have. some sort of mediation. I think that's. what they're saying. I could be wrong. Well, if that is Yeah, I'm sure that's.

in your best interest. That's not Yeah. Like, yeah, that's. wild. The thing about Uber is if they're. just private contractors, then it becomes like, okay, what is your. responsibility to screen these private. contractors? Because some of these. people might be psychos and you know, you're a woman and you get in a car with. someone who hasn't been vetted and. they're a psycho. That's wondering if this has to do with. where it's based as a company. Where is. it based? On the moon.

I'm talking about the laws of the. Netherlands. The Netherlands. The. Netherlands. Well, that would be a good. move. You got to start somewhere where. they, you know, the Nazis rolled through. with [ __ ] tanks. It's either that or. Luxembourg, whichever one you want. Did. the Nazis get to Netherlands? Keeps talking about and Frank Amsterdam. Vienna Convention. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. Vienna Convention on the. International Sale of Goods shall not. apply. Okay. Except as what is set forth.

in these terms, these terms shall be. exclusively governed and construed in. accordance with the laws of the. Netherlands, excluding its rules on. conflicts of laws. Excluding its rules. on conflicts of laws, what does that. mean? I don't That's a weird thing to. say. This may as well be Portuguese as. far as in accordance with the laws of. the Netherlands. Excluding its rules on. conflicts of laws. I have an idea. So. conflict is I should copy and paste this. in like Grock or chat GPT. Oh no. We're.

going down so many rabbit holes. Explain. this to an American. Please. Kids use. Uber so much, man, that like a small. percentage comparative to the past of. kids uh are getting their driver's. licenses. Good. Good. You're probably right. Perfectly fine with that. Following. got um is Grock your favorite to use? What do you like to use? I bounce back. and you have to go. I honestly think you. have to test them all when you're asking. a question you really want the answer. to. They give you varying responses. I had I.

had a chat GBT lied to me yesterday four. times in a row. Look how quick this is. Let me break this down for Isn't it. wild? An American audience in plain. language. It's insane. This selection of. a contrast explains. See, this is what. I'm saying. Like if it's already. happened. Yeah. If if AI has already. taken over, we've already agreed by the. timing of your book, the synchronicity. is is real and that maybe the simulation. is real. And then if if it's going to be. simulated, it's not going to be. simulated by a bunch of people. It's. going to be simulated by artificial.

intelligence. No, there'd be way more. mistakes if it was people. Yeah. Dutch. law applies. The contract governed by. the laws of the Netherlands, not US law. This means Dutch legal principles will. guide how the contract is interpreted. except for conflicts of laws rules which. deal with choosing which country's laws. apply. Oh, that's what it is. Also, an. international treaty called the Vienna. Convention which covers sales of goods. doesn't apply here. So, with essentially. they're saying like we go by the. Netherlands laws. If you have different. laws in the United States, go pound.

sand. Those don't matter. This is in. this is in the Netherlands. Your your. lawsuits here. It also probably depends. on what happened. Like if you if it's a. speed limit thing, you go by the rules. of the speed limit. But if it's. something about, you know, interpersonal, the driver and the the go. think that if you do business in a. particular country, you'd have to follow. the laws of that country. Doesn't that. just You would think I mean, I'm not. even trying to be unreasonable here. Maybe they're better in the Netherlands. Maybe they're more fair. I don't know. It's not even like a value judgment. I.

don't know. Maybe they are. Maybe they. just want the best for their their. customers. So they say, "You know what? If they really want to sue the [ __ ] out. of us and win, really should do it in. the Netherlands. Maybe. Isn't it where. the H the Hague is in the Netherlands, right? You know, with the world like uh. what do you call it? Crimes against. humanity like war crimes is all in the. H. Yeah. Um I don't know if that means anything. I don't know if it means anything. either, but I I would imagine if you're. doing business in China, you're not. allowed to say, "Yeah, but US rules.

only. We only got so if you want to sue. us, it's you got to [ __ ] sue us in. Alabama." Yeah. They'd be like, "Fuck. you. We'll sue you right here. Sit your. ass down in our place." Yeah. You're. doing business in China. You get sued in. China, [ __ ] You should always, no matter what, wherever you are, you. got to follow those laws. That would. mean that seems super reasonable. Seems. like it seems like you shouldn't be able. to avoid that by like setting up shop in. some [ __ ] dictatorship somewhere, you. know? Like your homies with some guy.

who's a dictator and you're like, "Bro, you want to make some money together? Yeah. Let's incorporate in your country. and let's let's [ __ ] raise some cash. Yeah. Yeah. It's um it's all very weird. It's very weird. It's But the the. driverless car thing might be even. weirder because that's a solution out of. it. Like, man, I don't trust these Uber. drivers. They're sketchy, man. Good. Get. in one of those [ __ ] robot cars. Yeah. Get in one of those Whimos where. you can't even bribe it. Okay. The.

government's trying to get you and. you're they're they have a setup for. you. You go, "Bro, change of plans. This. is what I want you to do. I'm going to. give you $500. You're going to drive me. to Ohio." You know what I mean? You know. what I mean? You know what I mean? Like, you can do that. Like, if the. government's after you and you're in a. [ __ ] Uber drive and the guy's cool, you go, "Listen, dude. I'm going to make. this worth your while. It's a 4hour. drive. 4 hours back." Yeah. How do you. do that to a Whimo? You don't. You. don't. They get you. They shut the car.

off you. They lock the doors you and. then you're locked into the Uber. contract probably. Whimo is partnered. with Uber. Oh, I know. Cuz I just I was. going to get in one yesterday. I was. like I I haven't been to Austin in a. long time. Like I used to come down here. a lot like in high school and whatever, you know, sneak into bars and whatnot. And uh I saw these Whimos like what the. hell is this thing? I've never heard of. this. Didn't know this existed. And I. see it like driving around nobody. driving. I'm like I do not like this at. all. But immediately downloaded the Uber.

and Whimo app cuz I was like, "Well, let. me just get one to take me up to like. Sixth Street or something." Did you get. in? No. No. No. I chickenened out. I. just don't think cuz what if it just. doesn't want to take me there? Like what. if something happens where he's like, "You know what? I would like to do take. you down 35 at about 90 miles an hour in. the wrong lane, you know, what if my. front camera goes out and I can't see. what's in front of me and I just start. plowing into other cars." Like, I'm not. saying that that's going to happen or. ever will happen. I'm sure there's a. bunch of backup cameras, don't get me. wrong, but it just sketches me out.

Although, I do think it's inevitable. Yeah, I looked it up. There's only been. one fatality involving one and it wasn't. even their fault. It was a driverless. one where someone rearended the Whimo, like, you know, so I was like, well, they seem pretty safe like in terms of. like the way they drive too. They drive. real slow and steady and they're easy to. avoid. I could see taking one like if you're. just going around like a neighborhood or. something, you know, you just like. you're never going above 30 miles an. hour. Getting on like the interstate in. one of these things. Imagine if you. could show this to Ted Gazinski.

Get them away from me. He's like, I was. right. I was right. They're coming to. get us. God, back to our cabin. We are. We are allowing them to come to get us. We're paying for them. We're psyched. We're like, "Wa, this is cool." I'm. guilty of it. I have a Tesla that does. uh it does auto driving. You go. Yeah. You turn this button on and it [ __ ]. stops at stop signs, hits its blinkers, goes around stuff. It's crazy. Do you. use it? Very rarely. It weirds me out. But I do sometimes. Yeah. I mean, I've. done it like I've d have it driven me.

home three or four times just like just. like this is crazy. Just cuz it's weird, you know, but I'm always my hands are. close, you know? I'm never like looking. at my phone or anything like that. That's crazy. I would trust that like if. you know just sitting in there and like. kind of you you could take control if. you need if need be. But that's the. bridge, bro. That's the bridge. I don't. like a bridge. That's the bridge to. transhumanism. I think we all need to. stay in our separate. No bridges. I. agree. But I think we're going I think. we are the last of these kind of people.

and then the people from now on will be. like personally like physically. integrated with some kind of. electronics. Yeah, I don't like that one. bit. I'm too much of an acoustic type. fella. I can't be I think there's so. much wild genetic stuff going on right. now that Yeah, they're going to change. what it means to be a person within our. lifetime. Like there's some there was a. thing in China. See if you could find. this. Um do you know what a tardigrade. is? No. Tardigrades are these really.

weird little almost insect looking. things that are unbelievably durable. Oh, they're tiny microscopic little. [ __ ] Yeah, they call them like. something bears or something. What do they call them? What kind of. bears? Little water bears. Water bears. Water bear. So, these little [ __ ] can. survive forever in space. Um, for. whatever reason, they go into like. hibernation in space like, and they. think there's some of them from the. Japanese lunar lander that are actually.

on the moon. They think tardigrades are. on the moon and that they're like in a. suspended state of animation and that if. you brought them back to the United. States, they'd kick back in and be alive. again. That's how crazy these little. [ __ ] are. Weird. So, there was this. Chinese experiment where they're. integrating tardigrade DNA into human. DNA. That's a good There's nothing that. could ever go wrong with doing that. Jeez. But what happens if someone. develops like a. bulletproof immortal human.

that lives like literally lives forever. unless it gets hit with a meteor. Like. that's not outside of what's possible, man. No, they they developed um or they. were developing some kind See if you. could find that first for me. Make you. Google this. But they were trying to. develop some sort of bulletproof human. skin using spider silk. So they were. going Makes sense. It's like Kevlar's. spider silk but your own skin. Oh, like with jean splicing. I don't.

like that. The jeans thing freaks me. out. Splice like that movie. I don't. know if you ever saw that with Adrian. Oo, that was crazy. Is is a great movie, but like just seeing all I'm like that's. what my what my mind immediately goes to. is him banging this thing with it alien. things. Yeah, that thing was sick. Yeah, it was a kind of a goofy movie. Oh yeah. It wasn't like like, "Wow, I would. really believe that was happening." No, it was Schindler's List or something. Yeah. Yeah. It was kind of goofy, but it. was fun and it was uh just very strange,

you know, that like cuz you go, "Okay, I. could kind of see that happening for. sure." Yeah, I think so. I mean, that's. kind of what a lot of that is. I just. What was that? Crisper. You remember. that thing was kind of That was a. talking point for Well, they have. crisper, too, which is even more. effective. Apparently, this is made by. an artist. Bulletproof skin is made of. goat. No, this isn't it. Goat milk. What's that? Lab grown skin reinforced. spider silk and stop bullets, but when. you go to what it actually is, it's Oh, so it's [ __ ] It's not [ __ ] but.

it's just, you know, someone sort of. explaining things differently. I mean, I. thought there was it was a study about. human skin. That's what I think that they were. trying to say. Oh, so it's like a. [ __ ] headline in the story. Is that. what it And this is back from 2018 is. when this went um did you find anything. in the tardigrade thing? Yeah. And it. had uh they were explaining what it did. So there was. um it showed that there was a clean. transfer new cells function normally.

but also demonstrated increased rate of. cell growth. They're trying to make them. uh immune to um radiation is what the. idea was. They're making super people, man. They're making X-Men. That is so crazy. That is wild. They're. going to put [ __ ] tardigrade genes. into humans. God, that makes me so. uncomfortable. They may create super. soldiers. What the [ __ ] So, okay, China. has already done uh these genetic.

experiments on babies that are supposed. to um inoculate them to HIV, but also. somehow increase their intelligence. And. okay, the guy got in trouble and they. said, "You're bad. you shouldn't have. done that research that we paid you to. do. And so they put him in jail for like. a couple years probably played golf and. then Good fellas now he's out. Um but. that happened and that's just what we we. know about publicly like why would they. tell if they were like making super. soldiers and if they really like by the.

time we hear about it there's probably. some mountain in China that has an. underground base just like we have just. like Area 51. You got some base carved. to the side of a mountain and they're. doing wild [ __ ] over there where Jared. Leto lives or whatever. He lives in the. LA one. Yeah, he lives in the one that's. connected to the music scene in Laurel. Canyon, you know, cuz it's all like, you. know, the the whole music scene has like. weird intelligence agency. The Laurel. Canyon thing is strange. Yeah. Yeah.

With all those people like Joanie. Mitchell, Neil Young, maybe not Neil. Young, but like u Yeah. Like a lot of. those artists had like Yeah. Yeah. And. Jim Morrison's dad started Vietnam. I. mean, that's Jim Morrison's dad was like. a serious military man. Yeah. He was the. Navy admiral during the Gulf of Tonkan. Yeah. It's one of those things where. it's like you first you first hear about. that one and we go what? Get out of. here. But then you hear, well, no, like. it's not like these artists didn't. exist, but why did they become famous?

Why did they get promoted? Like what. what was it about? Was it a do you think. it's like a psychology? But you cuz like. take a guy in the Laurel Canyon scene. like Hendrickx. Like you can't make a. Hrix accidentally or you can't make a. Jim Morrison. Even though his dad was. like there's something about that guy. The way he sang his just the way it felt. like when he was on stage. He was a. star, man. I don't think you could turn. a person who isn't that into that. No, not even close. No. No. You can you can.

pump up like a pop idol. You can't. really pump up a rock star, right? You. can make a boy band. Yeah, you can make. a boy band. You could, you know, make. Ariana Grande out of, you know, clay and. send her ass out there. You can't make. Bob Dylan. God, no. You can't do that. Yeah. You can't do that to Jim Morrison. You can't do that to like a lot of those. like a actual rock star. Yeah. Is just. that's like a flash in the pan. Like it. happened. We don't know how it happened. any kind of musical star. It's like it. either, you know, there's no way, I.

shouldn't say no way, but I don't think. the intelligence agencies can like get a. guy and train him to be that. No, you. could like take a budding Yeah. scene. and pump it up, but but that scene's. already there. Like it was it was. already going to exist. Like it already. was existing. I mean, there was like the. beat neck stuff in New York that was. already happening way before any of. this. So, like, and they were just kind. of the next generation of that, just the. West Coast version. But there's, you.

know, there's like that's all that was. already there. So, yeah, if you want to. say there's like a conspiracy that they. pumped it up and like put more money. into like marketing their music to make. sure that th those artists music got. sold more and played on the radio more, like kind of a pola sort of thing, right? That makes sense. I mean that. could be I don't know that it happened. but I know it's it's confusing right. because you want to draw conclusions but. then you got to go okay you can't invent. Janice Joplain you can't make that in a.

lab like you know when she's singing. piece of my heart you know like just you. just like that is either that's like God. just kissed her with this talent you. can't like engineer that I don't think I. don't think there's no way but if they. if they could do that they could they. could manipulate all of reality Well, if. they could do that, then they should. probably do another one cuz Jesus. Christ. I mean, the amount of times, dude, that I've seen like people on TV. that are supposed to be these like. massively famous artists. I'm like, I.

don't know who any of these people are. And I'm like in the age where I should. still know who all these people are. Like, I'm pretty young, but like, yeah, I don't know who they are. And they all. sound horrible. Like, I'm just I don't. like like this is the proof of there. being some simulation where we're all. just like listening to the same. But I. wonder if people thought that about. every damn genre of music. I think they. did, but I think there's something. particularly lost about this current. generation because of social media. Yeah. Because of what we're talking. about with those chat bots arguing with.

each other. And we know for sure that. happens all over Twitter and Instagram. There's a lot of bot accounts and just I. think people are super confused as to. like what's like a real thing, right? What's real? What resonates? Like what. feels what feels what's cool and what's. not. what's what's being promoted and. artificially astroturfed and what's just. [ __ ] cool where it draws people into. it and it's harder to tell now. It's. tricky. Well, it also seems like there.

isn't cuz like you know you go back to. let's say like the 60s and you think. like okay late 60s this is the time of. like you know Hris and like the Rolling. Stones the Sergeant Pepper like the. highly influential experimental. musician. Yeah. Cream. cream was like, you know, it hadn't broken up yet. You. had the burger in like 70, but like the. number one song in like 1969 and one of. them was, you know, Sugar Sugar by the. Archies. It's like one of the most. mainstream bubblegum pop songs ever. It's like there was all but but those.

like Hendricks and stuff were still. there. Like it was in the Zeitgeist. was. still popular, but now it's like those. types of people are nowhere to even be. found and it's all just the sugar sugar. type things that interesting. You know. what I mean? But there's still a lot of. really good bands now. Well, there are. The thing is like the whole music. business is weird because you don't sell. anything anymore other than tickets to. come see people. But yet there's still a. giant industry.

that is involved in promoting and taking. these artists and you know essentially. locking them up to these deals. Well, yeah, because you get the ticket money. I mean Yeah, but they get the ticket. money now. And that's the thing that the. music companies didn't used to get. Exactly. So, so yeah, you still are. going to market, distribute the way that. you would have in the past, but now. you're just getting your your slice of. cake from a different p, you know,

you're getting it from a different area. than you used to. You're still pumping. them out, you know, pumping them up for. the same reason ultimately to make. money. It's just you're getting it in a. different way. What I'm saying is that. now a bunch of people are emerging that. aren't doing any of that stuff. You got. like your Tyler the creator type dudes. completely disconnected from that. system. Makes his own music, makes his. own he's the creator of his own domain. And yes, you don't need all those. people. And so you have this weird thing. happening now where you have a lot of.

like astroturf stuff, a lot of stuff. that's just like thrown out there to try. to get people to link. It sounds like. stuff that people like and it's created, but you still have a lot more. opportunity for legit artists to just. like Zack Bryant just emerged from like. Tik Tok clips or whatever they were, YouTube clips. Yeah. There's always. going to be the ones who come out in. like the indie way, you know, of like. like a what Tarantino was for like. movies, you know, like come out like I'm. doing this all on my own and like.

there's there's always going to be those. people. I just think it seems like. there's not a lot of those. Yeah, but. when they break through it [ __ ] means. something. Yes. Like Oliver Anthony. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Do you want You. want to hear his new song and we can't. play it on the show? Sure. Just Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. How about this? Well, everybody at home, we'll be right back. That's what I'm talking about. Oh my. god. Yeah, man. Dude, see that's that. Jesus exists, right? So, in the middle.

of all this honey honey, sugar sugar. [ __ ] that you're seeing today, there's. still there's still Oliver Anthony. There's still people out there that are. legit. They're legit. There's a bunch, man. There's a lot. There's just a lot. of noise. Yes. True. And I think I also. just don't try to find things as much. You know what I mean? Like I don't like. pursue it the way I probably should. because I in my head I just have this. like bias of like, ah, if it came out in. the last 20 years, I don't care. Like.

it's hard to find stuff, you know? It's. like I get suggestions from a lot of my. friends. That's some of my the best. songs, but uh also Spotify has a really. good I know I work for Spotify, blah. blah blah, but for real, they they're. their suggestion thing is legiting. The. the algorithm is very good. It's legit. It knows like the kind of vibe you're. into. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I agree. I. because I'll look, you know, put in just. some like random playlists or like in my. head think of like, well, what do I want. to hear like right now? How about like. 70s garage rock and I'll just put that.

in. And there's like all this amazing. stuff. It'll have like some deep cuts. from like the Stones, like one of my. favorite bands, and like you know, just. all this other stuff that I've never. heard before, but it all came out around. that time. Has the same sound. And. there's never like a a miss on that. whole list of like 200 songs. This is. incredible. There's some great. playlists, you know? It's like that's. what's interesting too about people. curating their own playlist. Like like. there's a bunch of my friends that'll. give me their playlist. Like Tony gave.

me one of his playlists the other day. I. was like, "God damn, this is [ __ ]. legit." Like a bunch of cool [ __ ] that I. never heard before. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I make I make playlists all the. time. That's one of my favorite things. to do as like a hobby is to make. playlists for people. I love it. Like if. they tell me like, "Oh, I'm like ah I. like want to know more songs that sound. like this." I'll be like, "Gotcha. I'll. make you a playlist and send it to you.". I love doing stuff like that for people. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I only have one. playlist, but it's like 39 hours long. Well, that's pretty good. I mean, how. much do you really need? Yeah, it's.

ridiculous though to try to find uh. songs in it. I have to use the search. bar. I can never just scroll down. There's too many of them. I I have. probably 40 playlists that I've made. Yeah, because I do them by like decades. and then I'll do genres within decades. You [ __ ] super specific. Well, I'm. just like slightly autistic or not even. slightly. Oh, got to be 55, 56. Like. enough to where I can like, you know, I. can function. Do you smell math? No. See, see any when it comes to that, I.

don't have any of that autism. I just. have the weird like I can't handle too. many sounds. Autism. Oh, interesting. Yeah. No, I can't handle a lot of. stimulus and then I make playlists or do. jigsaw puzzles. Yeah. Interesting. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. or or read 24/7 and. look up random, you know, [ __ ]. That's the superpower of it, right? I. think so. I mean, I've Yeah, I I'm glad. I have, you know, I don't know if I'm. really autistic, but if I am, I'm glad I. have it. You know, I'd really Are you.

self diagnosed? Of course. Oh, there you. go. I'm selfdagnosed, right? But you are. a doctor though, right? Yeah. Yeah. What. if I mean as much as you know, I'm. guilty as charged. I've self diagnosed. myself with ADHD. Yeah. But you but you. know but you know yourself better than. anybody else. So you should be able to. self diagnose. Well, I don't think. necessarily ADHD is even totally real, you know. I think it's one of those. things for people that just think. differently and they're [ __ ] bored as. [ __ ] and they can't pay attention to. stuff that sucks. Well, and there.

probably is some disorder in it, but to. like because I don't think it's. necessarily wrong to say that there is. like a a thing, but to say that it's. like a disorder and that that it's. negative and that it needs to be treated. is different. Like I don't think ADHD. necessarily needs to be treated. It just. needs to be like funneled. It's only a. disorder because we have a very rigid. civilization. Exactly. If we So, we. don't live in accordance to the way our. bodies were designed. Our bodies were. designed to be hunter gatherers. That's.

the the reality. That's the reality. because it takes so long to become a. hunter and gatherer and it took like. hundreds of thousands of years for us to. be good at it. And we've only been. living in civilization for a little tiny. little blink of time. Little tiny. So. our [ __ ] programming is all not to. sit still all day, not to stare at a. [ __ ] teacher, not to be bored. memorizing [ __ ] Our old thing is like. be active, do something, learn some, get. excited about something. So, we have. like an entire forgotten group of people.

that have so much energy and they have. they have all these interests that are. not what you're dulling them down with. all day long and they could learn in a. way better manner by just like. participating in things and yeah, reading stuff as well. But having a. teacher that actually is enthusiastic. about it, where they get you excited. about it, like not having to sit down. all day. You're [ __ ] 10. You want to. run. You want to play with your friends. You want to have fun and you just sit. there and by the end of the day you're. like, "Ah, I hate school cuz it's.

[ __ ] boring." Yeah. School sucks. Like school ruins everything. It ruins. the natural love of learning that I. think most humans have. is ruined by. public by schools because well one. you're there way longer than you should. be. There's no reason a kid should be in. school for eight hours, nine hours. sometimes. Why why would a 8-year-old. need to be in school that long? It's a. real good question. Doesn't make any. sense. What are they actually what are. you teaching an a. 10year-old in 8 hours like that they're.

going to remember? Yeah. And also I mean. like don't have you don't have to have. recess. you don't have to have all these. extra things like you can shorten all. this down make it more streamlined and. have kids home but it's just to prepare. people for a 9 to5 and so many two you. know parent or so many households have. both parents working so it's like well. it is kind of nice to not have a. babysitter you just send your kid to. school and yeah you know have your kid. be a latchy kid like I was like I was. too yeah um that was a normal thing back. then you know no one thought twice about.

letting your kids just go outside like. all the kids in the neighborhood we all. grew up like that we all would just go. over each other's houses. We just come. home from school, nobody's home, you had. a key, you know. Yeah. Yeah. I would. just come in and start like playing. guitar or something. I mean, I didn't go. around with neighbor the neighborhood. It was a lot of meth labs. A lot of. fully functioning. You live in meth labs. when you were a kid? Yeah. No [ __ ]. dude. Fully functioning. Like where'd. you live? Well, East Texas, which is. Don't, you know, don't have to say don't. rat. Don't do the address. Yeah. Some methhead right now like the. [ __ ] I remember him. We're.

going to [ __ ] find him. Yeah. Well, they've actually all kind of blown. themselves up since then. Funny how that. works. Yeah, it's a Yeah, nature really. has a way of taking care of itself, you. know. Um, that is such a crazy decision. to make. I'm going to cook Matt in a. trailer. Yeah, one blew up like the one. next to my house blew up not that long. ago. Like I was just asleep, thought I. heard a shotgun and looked and there's. just fire and I was like, "What is. this?" I was like, "Oh yeah, I'm. imagining a slow-mo of the trailer. blowing up with that Oliver Anthony song.

playing in the background." Uh, yeah. Yeah, you'd be you wouldn't be far off. Yeah, it's is pretty close. But yeah. Yeah, meth labs are known they are known. to go up badly. Yeah. Yeah. I Yeah, it. was not a neighborhood that you go like. ride bikes around and like play and [ __ ]. like that. But because you're cooking. meth and you're on meth. Yeah. So, right. Yeah. Yeah. And even if you're. not on meth, you're in contact with it. all the time, so you're probably getting. at least a skin high. Well, and they're. not using like, you know, highgrade. equipment. I mean, they're wearing like,

you know, some like like cheap gloves, maybe. I mean, most of it's bare-handed. You know, they're like old school hat. makers, you know, they would get mercury. poisoning and go crazy. What's really. crazy is that we look at that and we say. that is so nuts that people take meth. Why would you do that? And yet, what. percentage of kids today are on aderall, which is the exact same thing, just a. slow release, a delayed release meth? What percentage if you had to guess? Oh, I mean it's probably lower than we think.

cuz in my head I think it's like 40% but. it's probably about 15 if I'm if I'm. really guessing like trying to win some. money. God, that's a lot of that's still. so many kids. That's crazy. It's more. than one out of 10. And that's so crazy. That's just the idea of that is so nuts. They're all on meth. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And that's an ADHD thing, right? They. give it to you when you have ADHD. Yeah. Yeah. riddle. Yeah, I used to ADHD. medication. When I was a kid, I would. have run through I would have taken my. clothes off, ran through the woods.

Well, yeah. Yeah. I'd be like, well, what's crazy just turns kids into. a zombie. Yeah. Like like it it it's. it's so sad. Like I used to work in a. pharmacy for a long time and just seeing. like how many parents are coming in. there giving their kid and their kids. just like zonked out. They look like. they're in one flavor of the cuckoo's. nest, you know, like. And yeah, they're. just like, "Oh, here's here's my kid.". This like highlevel amount of, you know, rolin or whatever five ants, you know,

aderall. Like, it's it is wild. Yeah, it's spooky. It was a party drug for us. It's spooky that you can get a doctor to. tell you that's cool, too. As long as. the doctor tells you it's okay. Yeah, he. needs that. Oh, great. Look, we got. medication for him. We're going to be. fine. Lil Billy's going to be fine. Cuz. you come home from school, from work, rather. Your feet hurt. You [ __ ] sit. down, you take your shoes off, the kid's. [ __ ] sword fighting with his brother. in the middle of the living room like, "Hey, you got to stop. You got to listen. to me. Hey, you little fucker." And. you're so tired your ankle hurts. You. know, you can't get up. You're like,

"Medicate this little [ __ ]. Medicate him." Yes. Yeah. Cuz it's easy. to do. And And you have a doctor telling. you it's okay. So that immediately gives. you some like reassurance that like, well, why would a medical professional. tell me this is okay? A medical. professional. And he gives me my. medication. Allows me to get through my. day as well. Exactly. Oh, I mean that's that great Rolling. Stone song. Remember that? Mother's. Little Helper. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Mother. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's what it's. called, right? Yeah, it is. It is. Mother's help. Great [ __ ] song. Great. I mean, running for the shelter.

Yeah. I think that was the volume days, right? Was that what it was? Well, yeah. I mean, I don't know if they didn't. necessarily call it that, but there was. like speed and volume. Speed like an. upper and a downer. And you know, you. take the upper to get all your chores. done as a housewife, then you take the. downer so you didn't kill your kids. They prescribed those to people like. candy. Yeah. Forever. Well, I think and. they figured out that volume is like. super addictive, right? Yeah. I think. they legitimately didn't know back then. Oh, yeah. For sure. Any excuse after.

that, you're out of your mind. Like the. Oxycontton bull, you know, with all that. like Oh, for sure. They knew about. Oxycontton being They knew that was. essentially heroin. I mean, that's one. of the great moments in that uh Peter. Berg docue series on Netflix. Yeah. where docu drama series where the guy is. breaking it down to him. The doctor's. breaking down to him like you're when. the hot girl comes in, she's pitching. that stuff and he's like, "You're. selling heroin. You need this is exactly. the same thing as her. You telling my I. should put my patients on heroin." Like,

what are you doing? Like the, you know, the lone ethical doctor and the, you. know, [ __ ] shitty little house that. he lives in. You know, he's like, because he doesn't make the big money. Cuz he doesn't make the big money. Cuz. he's a good guy. Yeah. Which is like. unfortunately not unrealistic. Like. that's how it is. Yeah. Because if you. prescribe it, they give you, you know, a. $500 gift card to, you know, a. steakhouse. They'll, you know, hell. they'll buy you a new car. Well, that. all that stuff's nuts. You know, like. with certain amount of vaccines, if 60%.

of your patients or more are vaccinated, you get a larger incentive. So, you're. like pushing it. Yeah. The whole thing. is nuts. It's nuts that that's legal. Yeah. Incentivizing anything medical. medical is I mean why why are you doing. that like dude there was a guy that got. arrested I forget how many patients it. was but he was uh an oncologist and he. was giving people chemotherapy that. didn't have cancer cuz chemotherapy is. very profitable so this piece of [ __ ]. was telling people that they had cancer. and then giving them [ __ ].

chemotherapy. that's that for just for money that. sucks there's a special place and it was. like a bunch of people and I think he. had um insane excuse when they ask, you. know, that you eat what you kill. You. know, that that philosophy that they. kind of had in medical school, like you. have to do surgeries cuz that's how you. get your money. Y like. I thought you were fixing folks. I. didn't think this is all about you. making money. That's crazy. And that the.

fact that they incentivize you to do. that so a pharmaceutical drug company. can incentivize you to push their stuff. Whoa. You had to push their medicine. over another medicine even though their. medicine might have worse side effects. or maybe not even be the exact right. one. Yeah. Yeah. Like I'm on I'm on a. couple pharmaceuticals. And what are you. on? Uh effects are and I took a clonopin. about two hours ago. So wa what a small. very small dose. It actually did. absolutely nothing. So maybe it kicks in.

in five. We'll find out. Yeah. What is. the effect? Is that an SSRI? Yeah, it's. an SSRI. But um and when did you start. getting on that stuff? Oh, I started. taking those um probably 2013. Wow. Yeah. And I've never noticed a. difference. I just keep taking them cuz. I think at some point it's going to work. and then I. mean Well, you never know. Sometimes. there's like a delay in the. effectiveness. So, have you ever gone. off them just to see like what it feels.

like? Yeah, because I started Well, whenever I started drinking a lot, I was. like, it said you're not supposed to do. both. just like I'll just take the. alcohol. I'll take the depressant over. the anti alcohol worked for sure. Oh, really? Interesting. Well, that night it. worked real well and then the next day. it's like, you know, that's the problem. Yeah. I mean, if my ceiling was. stronger, I'd have a noose hanging up. there. But yeah. Well, you know, it's. like someone's got to design a better. alcohol. Someone's got to design. something that, first of all, doesn't. massively [ __ ] up your motor functions,

you know, which is the the most. dangerous part of alcohol. It's like. your body's not functioning right. I. want that to happen though. I like that. Yeah. I like the whole feeling, man. Yeah. You like just stumbling? Yeah. Being hammered. Yeah. I like waking up. and being like, "Why is my knee. bleeding?" Like that's a that's a great. feeling. Yeah. There's definitely fun to. be had. But it's just like it's an you. you're agreeing just like you're. agreeing when you're smoking cigarettes. Like I am um I'm giving up some health. here for this experience. Well, there's.

like a quote I I don't know whose it is. was definitely not mine, but uh like. getting drunk is you're just buying. happiness from tomorrow. Oo, it's a. great quote. I mean, it makes sense. because that is what you're doing. You're getting twice as happy, but. tomorrow Yeah. you're going to have zero. happiness. And I was buying like weeks. ahead, you know, like Well, some people. just keep that like Burke Chryser, he. just keeps that party rolling. He never. stops. He just knocked out a 5K. Good. for him. I got invited to go do that and. I I couldn't turn that down fast enough.

I was like, like you I was like, y'all, no. No, I'm not going to go run a 5K. unless someone's chasing me. Bro, Jelly. Roll has lost something insane. I think. he's down 140 lbs. I thought it was even. more than that, but maybe. Is it more. than that? I I think I think I I don't. want to. It's an insane amount. He looks. so good. He looks different. He looks. like a different person. Is wild. That's. a lot. I mean, he's almost 200 lb. Yeah. See, 180 is what I thought I had heard.

So, yeah. Unbelievable. Unbelievable, dude. I mean, that's a. that's unbelievable. He's an adult. human. See, if there's a there's a. video, I think that's on Bert Chryser's. Instagram of Bert with him on stage. And. Bert is bigger than Jelly Roll. No, he's. not. He's not. But he's right next to. him. And Jelly Roll is almost. unrecognizable. Yeah. I mean, he's so. much thinner. He looks great. And he's. committed. He's like [ __ ] all in on this. All in. on being healthy. I got to do it. He ran.

a. 5K. Look at that. Yeah, there it was. Yeah, boy. Look at Bert. Bert's bigger than. him. Look, I'm not lying. No, you're. really not. Yeah, that's um Jelly Roll. looks like a totally different human. being. Yeah. I mean, he looks looks. good. Yeah, he looks great. I mean, that's crazy. That's extraordinary. Extraordinary that he's been able to do. that. Yeah. In how long? I mean, it. hasn't been that long. I don't think I. think. yeah that's I don't think it's.

his weight loss he wanted to lose 100. pounds it says his first goal u okay he. passed that goal in 2024 okay so he'd. already lost 100 pounds by 2024 okay so. here we are in May of 2025 next year he. says half marathon wow I mean he could. why not why not yeah if he did 5k he can. do 5k is what? Three and a half miles. Yeah. Wow. So have marathons 13.1.

or 13 I guess. He his weight his weight. goal is to be under 250 lbs. Well, he'll. definitely be there. Said to do all the. fun stuff in life, you got to be under. 250. That's a to go skydiving. Skydiving. Ride a roller coaster, riding. a bull, and wrestling an alligator. Oh, don't do a lot of those things. I'll. tell you what, you know, the wrestling. an alligator thing. I can tell you from. firsthand experience. You can be any. weight and wrestle a [ __ ] alligator. Really? Why not? I mean, I feel like the. bigger you are, you're going to die.

You're going to die. Well, I figure the. bigger you are, the better at wrestling. you are for an alligator. Um, you don't. want to be 120 lb and jump on the back. of an alligator. That's true. But you. don't even want to be 300 lb jump on the. back of an alligator cuz they roll like. their whole thing is rolling. But they. wouldn't be able to roll quite as much. If I'm on the back of an alligator, that. thing is not budging. Boy, I think you're wrong. That could be. I think you're really wrong. wouldn't be. the first. I I'm really sure you're. wrong. I would like to test it. I don't. want you to. You seem like a nice guy. I've seen so many videos. Especially.

crocs when dudes like they put their arm. in a croc and the croc like not to. death. Well, see, crocodile is. different. Crocodile's very vicious. An. alligator is basically just a giant. turtle. I mean, you could just smack. that thing around. It's not going to do. anything to you. They eat people. They'll get you. They'll they still eat. people. I'm not a toddler. No, they'll. eat a grown adult. If they get a hold of. you, they'll take you and drag you under. a log. It's just they're not as. aggressive as crocs. Crocs actively. target people, whereas alligators are.

like if you [ __ ] a There's a fun story. Guy was uh in a police chase in Florida. Cops are chasing him, gets to a bridge, jumps out of the car into the water, lands on an alligator, and just gets. mauled right in front of the cops. He gets killed by an alligator right a. big too. It was like a B like like again. like the book coming out today like. sometimes sometimes the universe is. there with a 13footer like right when. you dive in. Oh no crap.

Grabs a hold of your head starts. rolling. Yeah. Have you ever been close. to one? [ __ ] yeah. There. Yeah. I I've. snuck up on well accidentally snuck up. on one once and it is it's kind of. terrifying hearing the the the I can't. make the sound but that like that you. know that sound they make bro they're. dinosaurs. Yeah. They're heartless. soulless eating machines. Yeah. I was. going to take a piss by a tree and just. heard that sound. I was like it was. night time so I'm like oh I don't I.

don't like that that just happened. and. look around. There's one. Not like super. close, but close enough to get a good. look and be like, "Oh, when I was a kid, I lived in Florida from uh age 11 to 13. We lived in Gainesville, which is right. by this place called Lake Alice, and. Lake Alice had all kinds of alligators, and people would go there and and feed. them marshmallows, chuck marshmallows in. the water, and then they eventually told. you, "Hey, stop doing that. It's bad for. the alligators." But alligators were. like a protected species back then. I'd.

have been dressing up like an alligator. so quick marshmallows. But it was so. weird to be like I lived in San. Francisco before that so you see nothing. and then all a sudden dinosaurs like. legit dinos why and I remember being a. little kid thinking why is everybody so. goddamn comfortable being around these. huge [ __ ] lizards. It is crazy when. you go to Florida cuz I'm I'm pretty. close to Cado Lake which I don't know if. you're familiar with Cat Lake but it's a. it's like the largest natural lake in. Texas. It looks like you went back in.

time five million years, 60 million. years. Like it's the scariest looking. place on the planet. And um there just. filled with alligators. So we would go. there as a kid all the time. And yeah, you see alligators and you're just like. but nobody cares. Like people are just. like out barbecuing like grilling up. against the lake and you know obviously. the meat being around like these. alligators just come up just don't care. They're just like all right. That's so. crazy. So crazy that people just. tolerate dinosaurs. Yeah. I mean, I. guess just, you know, they don't do.

anything to people like unprovoked. really. Like, as far as I know. I mean, well, they can. They certainly can. Yeah, for sure. But they're just like, they're so overpop populated now. They're all over Florida. They say. essentially any body of water in Florida. that's still there's a potential for an. alligator being inside of it cuz they. just travel at night and go into a new. lake and sit there and wait. They can. hold their breath for hours. God, I. would like to get They don't have to eat. for a year. Like what? Like what? What. are we doing? Oh my god. That was from.

cat lake. Oh, that is Yeah. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. What? Have you ever heard of. alligator gars? Yeah, we have them. Uh. yeah. So like my family, a lot of them. live in Gonzalez. I don't know if. familiar where that is, but by San. Antonio. And they go like bow fishing. for gars. And we used to go fishing for. gars like in a spillway. Just fish for. these bastards. You can't eat them or. apparently you can you can smoke them. That's what I heard. We would just pull. them up and then smash their head with a. rock and rude. Yeah. Well, I mean, what. am I supposed to My point was some guy.

just caught a world record in Texas. Uh. I think it was out in Lakeway. I forget. where it was, but uh it was uh 7 feet. long. See if you could find it. And he. caught it on like two pound test or. something crazy. No, that was a lake. trout. Different story. There's got to. be bigger ones than that than seven. feet. I wonder if it was Jesus. Look at. the size of that thing, man. That's so. crazy. That is Houston Chronicle. So, look at the size of that thing. Oh my. god. That's so big. 212 lb alligator.

garb. And those things, man, look like. they're from a different era. Those. things look like they're not supposed to. exist. Like, that is a godamn. prehistoric creature. Pull up some. photos, Jamie, of alligator gars. They. also don't attack people. No. No, they. don't. very kind of skittish. But my. kids found out that they're in lakes now. and then they're like, "Fuck this.". Yeah. Yeah. You take a chance with those things.

Look at their face. Like look at that. photo. Look at that face, man. That. looks like something from a book on. dinosaurs, right? Yeah. It's like a. sturgeon. Like those huge ass sturgeon. in Alaska where you're like from a. different time. Like a sturgeon looks. like it doesn't belong in this time. Look at that thing, man. That I don't. like that at But even the eyes, it just. looks primitive. Like a [ __ ] early. design. Like a 1955 Ford. You know what. I mean? It's like, what were you doing. back then? Like that's a [ __ ] design. That stupid eyeball at the end of the.

mouth. It looks dumb, right? Get make. that picture bigger. The one that's you. got that's big right now. Look. It's. Look how [ __ ] crazy that is. It's. God. I mean, it's so crazy. Look at that. thing, man. You never they only give you. a small ver. Isn't that weird? What a. weird Even if you open it. That's so. strange. Wow. But look how bad that. design is. That's like You know what. it's like? It's like you ever see like a. Dodge Charger, like a 69 Charger, a.

badass looking car, but like why is it. so long and goofy? Like what's going on. here? It's like old time. They hadn't. figured out proportions yet. Looks. weird. Yeah, that thing looks weird. It. doesn't look modern. It looks like it's. from a different time. It's definitely. not modern. Like a Why does it have a. nose? Uh, probably slammed into things. That's like a real nostril. They breathe. somewhere another way. Unless they can. breathe above. Is that a nostril? You. think? I don't. It does look like a nostril. See if. there's other ones that show that same. thing. That's crazy. If that's a.

nostril, that could just be a hole in. its nose. It could, but I think unless. they're like, no. Oh, does look like a. nostril. They all have a little nostril. Fine enough. Can alligator gars breathe. air? Because there are some fish that gulp. air. Have you ever seen that? When they. go up and they actually can gulp air if. there's no oxygen in the water. I mean, these things all look like a good They. have no Whoa. They have nostrils, but. their primary respiratory organ is a. swim bladder, which can be used to. breathe in air when needed, especially. in low oxygen environments. Wow. But.

they do breathe using gills at the top. So, they have gills and nostrils. That's. nuts. That's like like It says like most. fish have nostrils. I didn't know that. Most fish have no. However, they have a unique adaptation, a swim bladder connected to their mouth. Whoa. And swim bladder functions as a. lung, allowing them to breathe air. Jesus. See, that's why they're still. around. When When did these. [ __ ] first start being around? Like, how long have they been on Earth. for? I'm going to guess millions. I.

would. Yeah, for me. 100%. That seems. like a many milliony old fish. I would. guess. like 100. Oh, there it is. 100 million. years. So that's pre dinosaur death cuz that's. 65 million. So yeah. Yeah. So they they. were around long before that. They. overlap for 35 million years. Isn't that. nuts? That that's essentially a prehistoric. creature that you can go shoot with a. bow. Yeah. Or like me smash their head.

in with smash his head in with your rock. while your uncle's drunk. kind of crazy. that that's a a you know it's an. activity that people do but I I do I do. hear that you can smoke them and then. they taste good. I'll leave that up to. to you want even to try it like if. someone's really good and they cook for. you and they're like just try it. I'd. pretty much try anything. So yeah, I try. I've eaten worse things. I had beaver. once. I bet. you.

really me too one day. Uh, no. Me and uh. my friend Brian Callen and uh Steve. Reanella. It was on his television show, Meat Eater, and they trapped a beaver. And he cooked it. He made like a pot. roast. It was [ __ ] delicious. It was. really good. I'd try it. But Steve's. like an excellent cook. Yeah. So, he. really like he has cookbooks, like. excellent cook, so he really knows how. to make something. He cooks on the show. Delicious. Yeah. Yeah. All the time. All. the time. That's uh Yeah. I' I'd try it. I mean, there's not really any I'd eat a. dog. I'd eat I'd try. Can't eat a dog. I.

couldn't eat a person. Like I could eat. a person if I had to eat a person. I. don't think it would take all that much. to Well, I think historically, you've. been proven to be correct. Yeah. You. know, want some coffee? Do you drink. coffee? No, I'm good. I'm good. Um, yeah. Historically, when push comes to. shove, people will eat people. Yeah. I. mean, uh, what was the name? General. Butt Naked. You ever heard of him? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He was eating people. I mean, that's how he found he busted. that guy at that market, you know, that. was serving human meat. That guy killed. and ate people and then he was forgiven.

because he found Jesus and then he. become became a pastor. Amazing, bro. He would take off all his. clothes and go into battle and kill. people while he's butt naked with a. machete. With a machete. He would find. children, kill them, cut their heart out. and eat it so that they he would become. invincible. Eat the heart of his enemy's. children. It worked. He's still alive. beyond something. That's the thing. Like you could dismiss.

it all you want. Yeah. But the proof is. in the pudding as they say. The devil. has very specific rules if you want the. superpower. From monster to minister is. the past about to catch up to Liberia's. war criminals. So that's the thing is. Liberia. Okay. Do you know the history. of Liberia? Yeah. With James Monroe and. Monrovia. I mean well I know like that. it was a colony basically to send. African like slaves back to Africa. Exactly. Yeah. That's why the capital is. Monrovia. It's named after James Monroe. It is an insane place, man. In the weeks. before he found Jesus, the evangelist,

formerly known as General Butt Naked, reckons he was sacrificing four or five. children a day. Oh my god. M murder had. long come naturally to him. He was only. 11 when the elders who had steeped him. in the ways of witchcraft first handed. him the sacrificial knife. But he never. killed with such intensity and ferocity. as during those weeks in mid 1996 when. Liberia's first civil war reached its. calamitous climax on the blood soaked. streets of Monrovia, the country's.

battered capital. Several times a day, the warlord and his battalion of boys, all naked as he was, would emerge into. the maelstrom, firing wildly as they. added their own breed of terror to the. chaos. Wow. Yet the bloodletting always. began before a single bullet had been. fired. Before each engagement, but naked. pagan priest and holy warrior would lay. a child face down on the sacrificial. table, slice open its victim's back, and. pull out their still beating heart, thus.

ensuring magical protection for the. coming battle. Yikes. [ __ ] yo, it's not really like a nice. thing to do to someone. I mean, [ __ ]. Yeah, that's that's insane. I mean, I. don't care if he found Jesus. But he. found Jesus. Hold on. He found Jesus. Is. that actually why he got let off or more. than 20 years later, um, General. Butenegate, uh, Nom Dur, Evangelist. Joshua Milton, U Blah, he no longer. cares to use, has never appeared in.

court for the war crimes he so freely. admits to. Neither for that matter has. anyone else. Not in Liberia at least. That's pretty crazy. So, they didn't. even try. It's not like he got off. They. just didn't even try. That's how bad. that place is. Yeah, cuz he was under. What's that guy's name? Charles Taylor. Charles Taylor was an absolute nut job. as well. You ever seen Machine Gun. Preacher with Gerard Butler? No, I. didn't. Oh, you got to watch that movie. So good. Machine Gun Preacher. Yeah, it. sounds like When does this one When When.

did this one come out? Maybe 2014, 2015. or so. So, you're decently old. 2011. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. But it's based on true. story of a guy who, you know, had like. some alcohol, like drug issues, I. believe. And here it is. Machine gun. preacher. Yeah. Whoa. Okay. Yeah, it's it's a I'll check. that out. Jamie, will you do me a favor? Send me. Nope. Yeah, he went to Africa. Like this guy Yeah. went to Africa and. started um like building these like, you.

know, kind of I guess not orphanage, but. like schools basically. And then. obviously, you know, the warlords would. come in and burn these schools down. because they don't want them being built. and uh try to take the money that's. being donated. So he started like going. over there like he was at one point just. kind of, you know, getting money and. sending it there. And then he was like, "Wow, I'll actually go over there with. weapons and I'll protect these schools.". And it's basically what he did. And it's. it's a pretty crazy story, the movie. Yeah. It's phenomenal. Yeah, man. There. are parts of the world that are just.

[ __ ] bananas. Yeah. Which is really. great about the early days of Vice. Oh. yeah, the early days of Vice, man. They. would go and interview like General Butt. naked. Like that's where I heard about. them was a Vice. It was the cannibal. warlords of Liberia was the documentary. They would go everywhere. All the crazy. places. They would go all parts of the. world. Yeah. It's it's Yeah. Amazing. Like just how crazy people are. People. that don't visit those places of the. world, they don't see like the look in.

the eyes of people that have been to all. those dangerous parts. Like my friend. Shane Shane Smith from Vice. Yeah. He's. got this when he starts talking about. these places that he's been, especially. the early days. It's like there's like. he has an understanding of the dangers. of the outside world that I think us in. this little gated community we call the. United States. We're very very ignorant. about how [ __ ] sideways things have. gone in other parts of the world right. now. While you're enjoying Netflix, cuddling up with your sweetheart, eating.

popcorn, there is parts of the world. right now where someone's cutting out a. child's heart to eat it before they go. to battle. Like maybe not in the same. timeline, but close enough. It's not I. mean on doing it doesn't mean somebody. who knows what's happening right now in. certain war torn parts of the world. Yeah. And we just think well you know. what we really need is equity. Like we. need to worry about the climate. The. climate change should be our number one. priority. Like actually stay you need to.

stay safe. You need to [ __ ] stay safe. and you need to understand there's a. bunch of spots that aren't safe. Yeah. Well and also yeah climate change. Sure. worry about it. But, uh, like that kid's. going to get his heart ripped out in the. next 15 minutes. Let's go ahead and like. worry about him. Maybe that's probably. number one. And then, yeah, let's let's. go ahead and worry about him for a. little bit. Go to climate after that. People who are good people don't want to. believe that there's bad people in the. world. And I understand that reluctance. I understand like you have this. perspective. And in your world that. you've cultivated, you probably are safe.

because you've cultivated this world of. a bunch of people that share the world. view of you. But when you enter into. other people's spaces and you're. ignorant to their culture and how crazy. where like I read about this this couple. decided that they're going to prove that. people were just good people everywhere. and they went and hung out with ISIS and. they killed them. Did you read about that one Jamie? Do. you know that story? That's that is. incredible. I was like you need better. friends. You need better friends. You. need better friends that show you some. videos, you know, that show you like.

this is what's going on in this part of. the world. Like you have to understand. like it is you need to talk to someone. who's maybe surfing Afghanistan. Like. you need to understand what's going on. over there. The problem is those people. would never listen to that. They'd be. like, "Well, you just saw the bad side. of ISIS. Like you got you got ISIS on a. bad day." was like, I have a lighter. that my friend Chris Williamson gave me. um that uh is from my comedy club that. went to Antarctica because they took a. group of people to show them that the.

world isn't flat. They showed them the. sun actually at the c it does go around. like that and you can watch it the whole. time. They're like [ __ ]. people completely recalibrate like that. guy that tried to launch himself up in. the sky to prove it and he died. Yeah, that guy. He needed better friends with. all these people just need better. friends. Like Yeah, you need you need. people around you, hey? Yeah, don't do. that. Yeah. And just or reassure them. Just tell them it's flat. Don't worry.

Like it is flat. You don't got to worry. about imagine if it was like imagine if. all those morons were right and then uh. everybody all these scientists, all. these saddle all lies, all in cahoots. They've all been in cahoots for this. whole time. They even was his name was. it Socrates or Aristotle? I think. Aristotle that mapped it out back in. 3,000 years ago. This is my take on it. I firmly believe that at one point in. time there's a bunch of people that were. uninformed that thought the world was. flat way back in the day. Yeah. Then. they figured it out with experiments and.

then you look at all the other bodies in. the solar system. Everything else is. around. Kind of makes sense. You realize. that this is how planets are formed. Gravity and spins and the whole deal. Um, but then I think they're scops and I. think a bunch of people went on there. just like they did with women with the. free bleeding movement on 4chan. They. convinced women to just [ __ ] bleed. all over their crotch. They convinced. them and they did it by making it seem. like a feminist thing like [ __ ] these. [ __ ] patriarchy. I don't have to wear a. [ __ ] tampon. I'm going to wear white. pants. [ __ ] you. Look at my blood. You.

know, and then women actually went and. did it because people will buy into. almost anything. They just there's a. certain percentage of the population, whatever it is, that's so easily they're. so suggestible. They're so easily. influenced, you could kind of talk them. into almost anything. And I think that's. part of where the flat earth thing got. sideways because I think just like MK. Ultra used to exist, I think there's. still some let's find out how dumb they. are experiments. Yeah. There's also just.

a lot of real dumb people. There's also. some people who like they also want to. like think that everything's a cover up. I don't trust NASA. Like why would I. trust NASA? It's like I don't know why. not like like we didn't go to the moon. so the earth must be flat. I guess if those two things are related. I don't know. I mean yeah I just uh. Yeah, there's a lot of that. There's a. lot of people that don't want to. actually do research. They want to watch. a YouTube video and then start talking. about it. That's me. That's my favorite. I'm with you. Yeah, I'm with you, too.

Yeah, I like a good deep dive, but. sometimes just give me the damn bullet. notes. Yeah. Well, sometimes I'm just. [ __ ] around and I'm not really. serious about whether or not I care if. it's real. I'm more interested to know. about these Emerald tablets. Like, where. are they? Who's got them? What do they. say? Like, I don't want to know if it's. a hoax. But I'm only [ __ ] around. I'm. not like completely invested in it. But. when you you start making videos about. how you're correct and the world is flat. and everybody else is wrong, like no, that's you're being you're annoying.

This is silly. Like you're just not. seeing things correctly. Like yeah, there's a lot of lies. Yeah, there's a. lot of conspiracies, but it doesn't mean. all of it. Okay, it doesn't mean the. stars are actually lights in the sky. You know, a more interesting possibility. is that it only exists when. consciousness engages with it. And that. that's that's the real simulation. theory. That's the real weirdness. That's That's when things get like Tom. Campbell, you know, the my big toe, the. theory of everything. That's when things.

get really weird. When instead of. conscious, consciousness is like a part. of the creation of reality itself that. it's all integrated. Jesus. Yeah. I. don't like thinking about any of that. stuff. He wears me out. Yeah. I I don't. like the like space. I leave that alone. I don't know. out of space. Um cuz also. like what happened before like and then. what happened before that? There's an. there's an environment before the big. bang. Yeah, I think they call it the. environment. Isn't that what it's.

called? The environment before the big bang. Yeah. What did they call it? Brian Cox. was explaining it to us. I was like. what? Oh god. Yeah. Like they all. theoretical of course. Well yeah. Yeah. which is the problem because then like. sometimes it just I don't know like I I. couldn't have that be which you know. great for like those people I could not. have that be my life is is coming up. with these theorems and like studying. them because you're never going to get. an answer but it doesn't need an answer. I'm glad it's not you oh well yeah for. sure I'm glad you do what you do and.

they do it's like exactly no I'm I'm. glad that they do it just saying like. for me it would drive me right. absolutely because I can't I have to. like know an answer Right. I I can't I. hate like hypotheticals and like like. string theory. Hate it. That that could. piss off. I don't need to know any about. that. That one's weird. Yeah. Any of. that stuff. I like I like this happened. on this day. This is who was involved. This is what happened. Like hard fact. kind of stuff. I Well, space is the. ultimate who the [ __ ] knows because we.

can only see so far. We see so far. But. even so far is only so far. Well, and. then they're saying like it's always. expanding. Well, that's that can't be. true cuz like what is it expanding into? If space is space, you know, if they're. like, "Oh, it's like blowing up a. balloon where everything's okay. Well, you're blowing up a balloon in a room, right? So, what's the room that you're. blowing the balloon into?" And then. that's in a bigger room and then that's. in and then there's the concept that. it's actually finite. It's not infinite. And it's some sort of doughut shape. It.

like Lord goes back around eventually. But then who made all that? Like is. there a God? Did God make this or is God. the universe? Yeah, but then who made. God? And then that bothers me, right? Who made that thing? Is that a thing. that we think that like because we were. born and we die that we have these. biological limitations that we attach to. the universe itself? That's that's a. very Yeah, that's fair. That Yeah, that.

we just we see things as being built and. destroyed that there's always been. something. Wouldn't it be crazier if. there wasn't something at one point in. time? That seems even crazier. Then. there always has been something cuz if. it's just something, if it's just the. nature of everything, there is always. something, right? It couldn't be nothing. and then all of a sudden everything that. seems because what started that? What. kicked that off? Exactly. What snapped. its fingers? Like that's McKenna's great. line. Terrence McKenna had a great line. about uh the difference between science.

and religion is that science only asks. you for one miracle. I want you to. believe in one miracle, the Big Bang. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's a good one. It's a great line. It's It's because it. really is true. And it's funny because. people would be incredulous about the. resurrection of Jesus Christ, but yet. they're convinced that the entire. universe was smaller than the head of a. pen. And for no reason than anybody's. adequately explained to me, that makes. sense. Yeah. No, instantaneously became everything. Yeah.

Yeah. Okay. Uh I can't buy that. I'm. sticking with Jesus on that one. Like. Jesus makes more sense. It makes more. sense. People have come back to life. Like in fact, you were one of your. videos was about a woman who was hung. Oh yeah. Yeah. Tell that one. Uh was it. Nancy Green or Ann Green? I think Ann. Green. Yeah. She was um she had. basically a miscarriage and you know at. the time it was basically like oh you're. a witch. We're going to kill you because. your baby's not it didn't live. So she.

just buried the thing, acted like. nothing happened. They tried her, convicted her. So she had a miscarriage, buried the child, and they caught her. Yeah. They caught her thinking that she. had killed the kid. Like why would you. be just burying your baby? Like they. weren't really thinking that, oh yeah, she had a miscarriage. Um hung her. I. mean, as far as they're they know, she's. dead. Put her in a box, wooden box, take. her to a mortuary, and the guy's, you. know, getting her ready to prep her to. bury her. She wakes back up after they. start doing like they feel well they.

feel like a faint pulse and they're. like, "Oh my god, this woman's still. alive." But she's not like coherent and. alert. So they start giving her like a. tobacco smoke enemas which all got to be. a great idea. How do you go to that one. first? Well, I don't know. I think uh I. got an idea. I mean, slapping the hell. out of her probably was the first and a. pack of Marros. Here it is. Yeah. Pouring hot. Yeah, they poured this. which I don't know what cordial. I think. it's just some sort of like liquid. Any. is that what just yeah I don't know what.

invigorating or stimulating preparation. that's intended for medicinal purpose. the term derives from obsolete usage. basically robbitasen yeah some sort of. alcohol I. thinked or buffalo trace let's go lady. rubbing her limbs and extremities blood. letting a good option pulit pus pus oh I. didn't know about the pus what is that a. soft moist mass a moist mass so like a. so basically putting like a like a hot, you know, soft materials like cereals. Okay. Cereal. I don't know. So they put.

oatmeal soft materials like cereals used. as a base. So they put oatmeal on her. tit of oatmeal on her tits. Yeah. Yeah. Tobacco. They're just experimenting this. lady. The tobacco smoke and to me is the. wildest one. Like you went up her. [ __ ] with a cigar. Is that what you. did? You weirdo. Yeah. Like a a backdoor. Clinton. That's a guy that wanted to. smoke a cigarette in the operating room. Like I know. Blow some smoke up your. ass. Yeah. Yeah. That might be Oh my. god. That's literally it. Yeah. You. blowing smoke up my ass. Blowing smoke. up your ass is supposed to be deceiving.

you. Well, that's probably They probably. found out it was some [ __ ] Are you. still trying to do that [ __ ] He's just. ass freak that because a lot of. morticians have been freaks. Like that's. one that famous Sam Kenisonson bit. Yeah. It was one of the greatest bits of. all time. She started talking after 12. hours. Yeah. Started eating food. That's. nuts. Recovered. She came back from the. dead. You told me Jesus can't. Well, Jesus was after three days. I feel like. after three days, you already people.

were tougher back then, bro. Well, that's true. 2,000 years ago, people. were they had some gumption to them. Well, they're probably also 2,000 years. less evolved. So, probably stronger. Stronger. Yeah. Like more robust. Oh, they were able to survive. If you. survived 2,000 years ago, I just would. imagine like you're going through some. tough times. Yeah. You know, like you. you can't you can't have like there's no. bad genes back then. Nobody makes it. Yeah. And Jesus went through some stuff. by the time he hit 33. I just think. human beings probably we're probably.

dealing with a very robust gene pool. The people that did live, you know. Yeah. Especially if you go back earlier. and earlier, like you go way back. Yeah. Cuz they were basically doing like. survival of the fittest. I mean, it was. that was life, you know? If you have a. kid who comes out all gimpy, you just. throw that [ __ ] off the cliff. Yeah, they're dead. You sacrifice them. You do. it. They can't be held down. You know, the um I was watching this um YouTube. clip yesterday on Cro-Magnum, man. Like. the uh early homo sapiens who killed off.

a lot of the Neandertols, like the. battles with the Neander, like they were. just these massive [ __ ] Icelandic. type dudes that lived back then. Like. you had to be tough to survive thousands. of years ago. Especially if you lived in. the north like that. Oh god. Like can. you imagine being a Viking just living. in like Iceland, Greenland? Yeah. Your. your house is made out of sticks and. there's polar bears outside. God. And it. just sucks. [ __ ] There's nothing to do. [ __ ] I I wouldn't like that one bit.

I'm real glad I live right now. I would. have liked to have lived a couple like. decades back. I think I fit I think I'd. be more comfortable like in the 70s or. 80s. I think you're perfect right here, dude. You get more research information. now. That's true. Be harder to do your. job back then and everybody bullshitting. this. Well, everybody already does. So. Tucker's full of [ __ ] man. Making stuff. up about the past. That's what most. people already think I'm doing anyways, which is fine. I mean, well, how do you. research it? Like, how do you find crazy.

facts? I just well one just read like. books constantly. So like I'll say like. Napoleon I'll to be like all right let. me find a book on Napoleon read about. Napoleon and I'm mostly just skimming. through looking to like find something. that seems interesting or then I'll just. Google like interesting [ __ ] about. Napoleon and then read through it. Half. of it's not true. So I got to sift. through that and then put it all. together into like kind of a story and. do it that way. But uh yeah, it's mostly.

just reading like articles online, like. um scholarly articles I guess you'd say. Just like flipping through them until I. find something. Imagine trying to piece. through the truth of the 1700s. Just imagine then. Yeah. I mean, right. now, like try to figure out exactly what. happened. It's. um I mean there there was some good like. you know sure notating what's going on. but still how would you know? I mean you. barely know. Yeah. I mean really you.

don't even have to go back go back so. the 20s right like who who now is going. to be like oh yeah that did happen. Well. yeah but at least we have like. photographs and stuff. But my point true. yeah was going to be now now take it. back a couple thousand years ago. Like. good luck. Well, that's why so many. people think some, you know, that have a. hard time knowing for sure whether some. people even existed. Like Achilles, like. people, you know, still believe that he.

necessarily existed. I mean, they didn't. believe that entire war happened until. like relatively recently. Well, they. didn't find Troy until like what year? Like Troy was supposed to be just a. mythical place. Exactly. I I don't know. a date. I'm thinking the 50s if I had to. guess. I think it was like kind of. close. But yeah, they they just knew. less than 100 years ago. Yeah, I think. so. I mean, because they knew which is. nuts. Yeah, they just knew Homer. They. just knew the Iliad, the Odyssey, and. those things and thought it was all. fake. Because then if you know that that.

war is true, like once you discover that. that did happen, then it's like, so is. Achilles real? So is like Agamemnon. real? Like it's like hard to know. Is. Adysius real? And then, right, but. obviously there's things in there that. aren't real, you know? Odysius. That's. what's weird, right? It's like there's. some for sure fiction. I think. But. maybe not. Maybe the world was way. weirder back then. Could be. Maybe all. those weird things got killed off. I. mean, right? That's the thing. It's like. maybe there were like almost godlike. creatures that existed that we, you.

know, we want to call Zeus or Hercules. or maybe this is just like years and. years and years of retelling stuff cuz. like Homer's take on Atlantis is one of. the most fascinating. I'm I've been. obsessed with Atlantis uh ever since. particularly I had Jimmy Corsetti on the. podcast and have you ever seen his. videos on the rishart? Is that how you. say it? Jimmy rechart I don't know. Rishart structure. There's this area in. subsaharan Africa that has all of the.

attributes of Atlantis including its. position where the mountains are to the. north where the river is to the south. the concentric rings. It literally is. the same size as described the. concentric rings. It looks like a. complete anomaly. It does not look like. something that's naturally occurring. And the entire area looks like it's when. you look at it from a like an aerial. satellite photo, it looks like it's. blown out by water. Like immense amounts.

of water rushed through the land. Like. the whole area looked massive water. erosion. Like when you look at it from. above, it looks like it just got hit. with the most [ __ ] insane flood of. all time. There's literally salt. There's white all around the area where. this Rishard structure is, which was. probably from the [ __ ] ocean, right? For sure. And it's this to this day. And. also evidence of human habitation. They. found pottery. They found a bunch of. things, but there's it's a kind of. sketchy area of the world. And I don't.

think there's been a lot of like real. excavation done there. Yeah, but look at. it from the top. And I I recommend. everybody go to uh Bright Insights. YouTube page and just watch some of the. videos he has on it. And he's not saying. it's for sure this, but he and it's not. just him. It's many other people. This. is the area. Show it um the image of it. from space. Jesus Christ. It's crazy, dude. It literally looks like how. Atlantis was described with concentric. circles. But crazier still is its.

position to the mountains which are in. the north and the south where the the. the river runs through is literally. exactly as described. And if you look at. the image from look how it all looks. blown out, man. Oh, it all looks. completely washed out. That is crazy. Watch how you go further out. Look at. that. Tell me. Oh, the whole thing. The. whole thing. It looks like the whole. thing is just scarred from water. Just a. massive amount of water. That's cra So.

from a Yeah, that is from the position. where it is, the description of it, the. the actual dimensions of it, everything. about it, man. Even the descriptions of. it and like the colors of the rocks that. are in that area, it matches so many. details. Oh, it's in Moritania. Okay. Yeah. Isn't that nuts? That is amazing. Look at I mean that's again shout out to. Jimmy Corsetti because once because. because Randall Carlson dismissed this.

but I was like how are you dismissing. this? I don't understand. I mean. dismissing it based on he doesn't think. that this is Atlantis. He thinks. Atlantis is somewhere else. Maybe he's. right. I mean I don't know. Maybe there. was more than one. I mean when a bunch. of people die at a time where you don't. have phones and you know you don't have. computers. It's real possible that the. the myth of Atlantis, you're talking. about like a civilization that existed. at a certain point in time and it might. not have just been this one incredible. city, but there's probably multiple. cities that existed that just don't.

exist anymore, just completely flattened. and then some people remembered this. one. You know, that's also part of the. equation that you have to like look at. when you see that kind of insane water. erosion. How much did people just have. no recollection of? Right. Right. Right. But it's all lines. up numbers wise. This is what's nuts. Homer was talking about it being 9,000. years old. That's 2,000 years ago. That's at the time of the younger dus. impact theory. It's the same time.

period, right? So lines up perfectly for. it. Yeah, it lines up perfectly. The. description is perfect. The position is. perfect. Again, I'm a [ __ ] But don't. listen to me. Go listen to other people. that are interested in it because I I. became f I probably watched 30 videos on. it. It's wild because it's so cool. looking. It looks like Atlantis. It. looks like the way they described it. God, there's so many people that are. resisting though. It's a there's a. really interesting thing in archaeology. where there's, you know, there's not.

disrespectful to archaeology. It's an. amazing thing. I'm glad you guys are out. there. But there's a lot of people that. do not want anyone to find something out. before they have and they do not want. anyone to uncover something before they. they have especially if these people are. not credentialed academics. They're not. PhDs. They're not doctors or out. I'm. Dr. Smith and I'm out here finding this, you know, they they don't want like. regular people looking at Google images. and going, "Hey, what the [ __ ] is this?". And let's go and do and then like let's.

look at the history of the description. of the place. Actually, it lines up. exactly. They don't want to have missed. that. So, they'll try to dismiss it with. every fiber of their being rather than. give ground and give credibility to. these amateurs. Yeah. That's what. happens in like the with like those true. crime community people, you know, cuz. they'll sometimes like bust a case wide. open. Cops and detectives hate it. because it's like you're just a guy. sitting on your couch at home and you. did more than what I did. But, you know, obviously like a detective has all these. different cases like they're not gonna. they're gonna make a few mistakes and.

some probably do just not give a [ __ ]. [ __ ] ego. Yeah. Yeah. But but that's. part of it is that they will just. dismiss the leads that because somebody. will like call in be like, "Hey, like. have y'all checked this person on this. date?" Like ask where they were and. they're like, "We did it. Don't worry. about it." And of course they never did. So it is so that is kind of similar. situation like like we want we want to. be the ones to find it not you. So we. don't care that you've gone out and done. your own thing. Exactly. And have a.

theory that may be true. I mean it may. be [ __ ] but it may be true. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's interesting. It is. very interesting. The whole thing's very. interesting because clearly u we don't. have all the pieces of the puzzle laid. out and there are people that want to. pretend that we do and that's just not. the case. Yeah. There's just there's too. much weird stuff and there's too much. time that passed and the weird stuff is. like go back and these 11,000 year old. structures and a bunch of stuff that. they're finding in Malta. The Malta. stuff's nuts. But it's also it's just. there's no way you can know like if if.

if you if you're an expert in like. combustion engines and you want to break. down, you know, the the new uh Coyote. 5.0 that Ford makes and you're an expert. in engines, I'm going to listen to you. cuz I don't know how it works. How does. it work? Why is it so good? How's the. supercharger work? And then it does. what? Okay, how do you control all that. with the ECU and the traction control? Okay, because you're an expert in that, but you can't be an expert in the entire. history of the human race because we. don't have all the information. So,

you're bullshitting. You at least have. to be kind of bullshitting. Yeah. Like, we just found out super recently that. there was human beings definitely in. North America 22,000 years ago. Yeah. Yeah. Super recently. Yeah. I thought it. was even fast past like earlier than. that. Could be. Maybe they've updated. I. thought, but well, maybe I know the. footprints, those New Mexico footprints, the New Mexico footprints, I believe, are 22,000 years ago. So, what did they. think before that? 13. They That was. Clovis first. That was the people that. thought the Clovis people. But again,

you don't [ __ ] know. Yeah. Yeah. Well, it wasn't I mean, that long ago. when people found out about like the. Vikings coming over to New England, I. mean, yes. You know, that was a somewhat. recent discovery. I mean, obviously not. like in the past couple years, but it. was not very well known that like Leaf. Ericson's son, I guess it was Eric the. Red. Yeah. So, Leaf Ericen like coming. over, you know, 500 years before. Columbus. I know. Isn't that nuts? Yeah. And then they were here. I mean, they. just didn't settle, so it's not. significant, but you know, they were.

here. And who know? So, who's to say. that there weren't people way before. them? And then there's all these. different routes you can take. And. there's ideas of like the Phoenetians. coming or maybe the Egyptians like. coming into South. America, you know, even longer than. that, like thousands of years ago. Yeah. There's those theories, which Yeah. Who. knows? I don't know. Well, there's also. all the stuff in the Amazon, right? The. Lost City of Z, like that stuff. Yeah. That's crazy. That's amazing. Have you. ever seen that movie? Yes. Yes. Read the. book, too. What's interesting about the.

story about uh the lost city of Z is. that it all changed in a hundred years. So if it's true in the 1500s that first. guy goes and he gives everybody cooties. and he doesn't know and then he come. they come back a hundred years later to. see if he was telling the truth and. everybody's dead, right? Everybody's. dead and all the cities are gone in 100. years. Yeah. And they're like, "Ah, he. was bullshitting. We got there. There's. no [ __ ] cities made out of gold. Guy's an [ __ ] because the jungle ate.

it. Yeah. Which a hundred years is such. a long time for like that kind of like. destruction for Yeah. I mean that's not. a Yeah. It's not the middle of the. desert where you know those structures. will last for thousands of years. Like I. mean what was that like? Cuz I forget. the gentleman's name who was the first. explorer. Percy Faucet. Thank you. Percy. Faucet. The first guy. No, that was the. second guy. He's the guy that. disappeared. Percy. He's the guy that. got in the movie. Yeah. Yeah. Like the.

Rockefeller kid. Yeah. It says he's the. one that formulated the idea about a. lost city named Z. Right. But who was. the first explorer to the Amazon that. reported these incredible cities? Cuz. that was in the 1500s. I think Percy. Faucet. No. Was it somebody like they. found a document? It was a European guy. who was a uh explorer who went. specifically to try to travel the length. of the Amazon River. This is the It's. believed to have been written by a. Portuguese named Hao Dilva Gumierz who. wrote it in 1753. 1753 that he had.

discovered the ruins of an ancient city. that contain arches. No, there was a guy. from the 1500s. This is what I'm reading. from Wikipedia. No, I understand. But. there was I I was watching this this. video where they were talking about this. guy who was initially from the 1500s who. was the first to describe what he saw. there and that he saw thriving. populations like incredibly. sophisticated agricultural setups like. these people they lived like in harmony. with the rainforest in some strange way. like instead of like cuz what the video. was about was about um they were trying.

to reconcile how you could get enormous. populations of people that lived in this. area without the kind of agriculture. that we assume you need to have in order. to support these kind of populations. Yeah, exactly. And so they did something. different and integrated somehow with. the rainforest. And it was also about. that stuff that Camcock has talked about. uh teraprada the type of soil that they. had created. It's a man-made like. composted soil. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And. they talked about this too, but in this.

documentary um they were going over the. the guy who came in the 1500s and the. guy who visited it might have been the Y. files. I'm seeing a known Italian. navigator Christopher Columbus enters. the area in 1498 known as present day. Venezuela. Two years later, Penzon sails. into the Amazon. So the same year Brazil. is being accidentally found by. Portuguese explorer Cabraw. while route to the Orient. Uh 40 years. later a guy named Ori or Orana.

Orreelana. God, I wish I can remember. the name of the guy. Yeah. But the point. is the first people to go there that. were Europeans that went back to Europe. described these insanely sophisticated. cultures that had millions of people. living in it. Right. They they had huge. populations. Yeah. And they they talked. about the elaborate headgear they wore. Like they the way they dressed and there. was gold everywhere. And so everybody. was like, "Oh, we're going to go back. and get rich." And they went back and. everyone was dead. That's so crazy. I.

mean, could you imagine like you'd feel. like such a jackass, you know, having. everybody come back there and you're. Well, it's essentially what we did with. North America, too. Not we. I mean, my. parent my grandparents came here in the. 20s. But yeah, essentially when. Europeans came here, that's what killed. just disease killed 90% of Native. Americans. Yeah. Which is I mean, it was. the same in like the Indies, you know, whenever Columbus came and killed. everywhere. Just massive amounts of. people. Just like China did to us. Just. kidding. Just kidding.

Not really. They didn't. But it kills a. lot of things. But it's just bizarre that um we've. missed that chapter and it wasn't until. lidar um that they started to realize. like oh there's like sophisticated grid. work down here that seems to indicate. that there was that there's aqueducts. It seems like there's like places where. there was channels and paths and Yeah. Well, we have like I mean there's.

obviously like a euroentric idea a lot. of the times and where we think like oh. we're the only ones who could have ever. come up with like these advanced. technologies and like had these advanced. civilizations and you look and it was. like in Africa there was all sorts of. like massive civilizations and which is. about the Aztecs. Yeah. Yeah. And then. of course like Yeah. South America is a. huge I mean like themes, Aztecs, Mayans. I mean, well, especially the Aztecs. though, like Yeah, the Aztecs is a their. stuff is nuts, man. Their stuff was.

nuts. Like, could you imagine what. experiencing that must have been like? The first people that were like. Europeans that like stumbled upon these. immense Aztec cities. Like, what is. happening here? That was Cortez. Cortez. was the first I think I think for the. Aztecs was Cortez. Yeah. On horse. They. thought he was a god. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. [ __ ] god. Yeah. That's the other. nutty thing that we brought horses over. here. Like what? Yeah. Like they used to. be over here and then they all died off. and then we brought them back. Yeah.

God, I know. That's so great. You know, Thomas Jefferson brought mac and cheese. here. He's the guy. Mhm. Made it. popular. I mean, like it was like nobody. ate that [ __ ] He went to Paris, you. know, obviously like for pre-American. Revolution to get some buddies going and. uh Yeah. brought back mac and cheese. Also like one of the first Americans to. cultivate tomatoes. People thought. people thought they were poisonous, which to an extent they are. I mean, it's a Yeah, I was reading about that. like that you should really avoid night. shades. Yeah, it's a night. That's what. I was trying to remember. Yeah. What? But wait a minute. Yeah, but they taste.

so good. How dare you? I I mean, every. Italian in this in the world just, you. know, Yeah. I want to get like one of. those uh blood work thing done to see. like what foods you're you're supposed. to not be eating forever your you know, it's probably horshit, but you know, like for your blood type, you know that? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I did one of those. a long time ago and they told me to. avoid avocados and I'm like [ __ ] you. What the [ __ ] Avocados are like, isn't. that like good for everyone? Like, who? That's what I thought. It was one of. them wacky things where I was very. skeptical going in. I'm like, "All. right, I'll try it. Let's see what I.

what I shouldn't be eating." Well, it. seems like avocados. Like, what are you. talking about? That's insane. I'm not. stomping guacamole, [ __ ] Yeah. Yeah. You know, I I couldn't be No. No. I. can't. It's There's no way it's that bad. for you. Avocados are very good for or I. from what I thought nobody genetic. [ __ ] defect would you have to have. where avocados are killing you. That. seems crazy. I mean, you know, peanuts. I mean, you know, Texas Roadhouse damn. near had a damn near went bankrupt over. all that stuff. Really? Kind of. I mean,

but they don't do the whole You should. have sued the vaccine companies. Should. have, but you can't. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. But they don't do the whole, you. know, you used to go in there, you crush. up your peanuts and you just dump that. [ __ ] on the floor, smash it in with your. feet. They used to have them at Five. Guys. You used to go to Five Guys, peanuts. Not anymore. Everybody's dying. I know. Because you can't even eat them. in the room because if someone is near. you that has a severe peanut allergy, that's why they don't have them on. planes anymore. Remember they used to. have them on planes? Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You can't even eat.

peanut. Like if if you and I were. sitting next to each other on a plane. and I have a severe peanut allergy and. you start eating them, I could die just. sitting next to you breathing your. peanuty air. God, what a great way to. kill someone if you really wanted to and. get away with it. I don't know. Just. peanut dust somewhere. See the PB&J and. pocket peanuts. Just throw them. Yeah. Just have some mashed up peanuts you. toss on them. [ __ ] anthrax. Great way. to kill someone. It is nuts. Like for.

everybody else it's just yummy part of. Snickers and for you it's basically. anthrax. It is because I'm allergic to seafood. like shellfish. Any shellfish? Yeah. Yeah. You know you're also allergic to. roaches then. You can't eat roaches. And. you know how we found that out? Yeah. Fear factor. Oh. Oh really? That's was. from that. Yeah. That's how I found that. out. Well, because there is a thing. where uh scientists who research. cockroaches develop usually tend to. develop an allergy to coffee and to uh. roaches and I think also to shellfish.

Wow. Yeah. Like cuz they're Well, they're just studying roaches. constantly, which what a [ __ ] job. But um yeah, they end up be developing a. coffee allergy. But but yeah, that's. interesting. Why coffee? Because they're. just drinking coffee all the time. I. don't know. I think I mean probably. because roaches are. Yeah. Wow. coffee be some people can. develop an allergy to coffee if they're. also allergic to cockroaches. So the. becoming allergic to cockroaches by. working with them is what makes them. allergic to. So it's. tropommyioin tropommyiain.

y a common allergen cross reactivity. means individuals allergic to. cockroaches may also experience allergic. reactions when consuming coffee. particularly pregrown coffee. See in my. mind I thought it was because there was. a bunch of cockroaches in pregggroundown. coffee. Ew. There's bugs and like all. there are ground up cockroaches in your. morning coffee. Jesus Christ. You're. right. Oh no. Bug parts and ground coffee. So it's. ground coffee. Just get some black rifle.

beans. Kids, stay away from ground. coffee. Plus ground coffee is for. savages. Like what are you doing? Oh. folders. Grind that [ __ ] up. No. You got. a a good good You drink folders? I don't. drink coffee, but if I did, I'd drink. folders from Maxwell House. I don't. know. I mean, I'm I grew up poor and. white trash. It's coffee is not. expensive. It's only expensive at. Starbucks. That's true. Like regular, but like buy a bag of beans, get a. grinder, pour hot water, get it in one. of these [ __ ] French press. My god. Push that down after a minute. Oh, wait. a minute. You want to hear it? Here.

Listen to this. Okay, that does actually sound that sounds. [ __ ]. delicious. Yeah, that's real coffee. You. don't want that [ __ ] ground up. [ __ ] Unless you do. Unless you know. what's legit, though? those little. packets that Starbucks has where it's um. it's like instant coffee. Those are. legit. They figured that out. They they. did a really good job of like developing. that formula. I think it's called is it. called a Vero or something like that.

What's that Starbucks instant coffee? It's very legit. Like I've mixed it up. with hot water on camping trips and. hunting trips and stuff. It's like this. is pretty [ __ ] good. That's not bad. then. Yeah, it's good. It's like it. tastes like real coffee. Like but I. think like that was complicated to me. I. don't think like the cheaper instant. coffee has that kind of Oh, I'm sure. not. Cuz if you like coffee, like I like. the flavor. I like what it tastes like. Yes, I do too. It just gives me panic. attacks. Do you try the Well, and then. there's the decaf. The decaf gives me a.

[ __ ] headache and I don't know how. they did it, right? Yeah. How are you. doing that? Yes. Like what? Like it's. not like you can go in and pick out the. caffeine, you know? It's not like an. ingredient in there. Like you're putting. it through some sort of chemical. process. Yeah. Like is that safe? I. don't think so. I think how many studies. have been done on your decaffeination. process? No, I just drink tea. I'm a big. tea guy. Also, like what tea tastes. better? If I was just going to drink. like if I had a But also tea tea bags. have microlastics. You've been reading.

all that. Oh, well I I have so much. plastic inside of me. I mean, who knows? I mean, the amount of lunchables I've. eaten as growing up. Yeah. I I know. Oh, the amount of um. times you put Saran wrap over a. microwave meal. Oh my god. So many times. we just heat things up in like plastic. that's all broken to [ __ ] and you're. like, "Oh, this is Yeah. And then it. melts cuz you left it in there too long. Oh [ __ ] Oh well, it's okay." Oh, I've. eaten food that tasted like burnt. plastic. I was like, "Oh, I don't think. this macaroni and cheese is supposed to.

taste like this." But there was some. sort of uh article that was saying that. many human beings have as much as a. plastic like coffee spoon worth of. plastic in their head. Like one of those. little Yeah. In their head. How does it. get up there? Blood brain barrier. Oh. jeez. Microplastics. That microplastics get in your. bloodstream. This could be like the sky. is falling. You're all gonna die from. plastic. It could be. It's hard to know. because it's not like how many brains.

have you looked at? Well, yeah. And then. also like it's not like there is an. actual spoon shoved in your head. I. mean, it's all spread out. It's all. spread out. But also like do you have. room for a spoonful of plastic in your. head? Cuz I don't have any room up. there. I think you do in your brain. Your brain's mostly water. I mean, not. just you. I'm not not insulting you, but. you know what your brain filter looks. like if there's plastic everywhere. Concentrations we saw in the brain. tissue of normal individuals had an. average age of around 45 to 50 years old. were 4,800 micrograms per gram or.

0.48% by weight. It's the equivalent to. an entire standard plastic spoon in your. [ __ ] head. Compared to autopsy brain. samples from 2016, that's about 50%. higher. He said that would mean that our. brains today are. 99.5% brain and the rest is plastic. That's not bad. That's a good. percentage. 5% is not bad. However, the current. methods of measuring plastics may have. over or underestimated their levels in. the body. Campin said, "We're working.

hard to get a very precise estimate, which I should think we will have within. the next year." So, it may be zero and. it may be 10%. There's no plastic at all. in there. It's all in your balls. No. plastic in your balls. Oh, I need some. of that. Yeah, they found that there's. plastic in your balls. It plumps them up. a little bit like fake lips, you know? I. need I mean Yeah, I need that. desperately. So, you know, like when. chicks get fillers to hide the wrinkles, plumps your balls up a little bit. I'm. cool with microwave dinner plastic. Yeah, I'm fine with that. It's like one.

we were we were going over this. What. was it? Every month it was a credit card. or a week? I've seen this. Yeah, it's a. month. I think credit card amount of. plastic consumed in I don't remember if. it's a week or a month, but it's. something crazy. We're like, where's it. all going? Cuz I've been eating for a. long time. were these credit cards. Do you not just [ __ ] out the plastic. credit card? I would hope so. Yeah, I. would hope so. Remember how this was. studied though? I had to dig into it and. they had studied like an animal or. something and found it in the animals.

and they're like that's that means. animals are dumb as [ __ ] right? They. eat bottle caps. My dog eats every week. is what it says. Oh Jesus. My dog eats. everything on the ground. I don't trust. animal studies. The only way you really. know is if you try it on people, right? That's why we got to put them prisoners. back in Alcatraz. Wow. Do what you got. to do. I mean, yeah. Yeah. That Trump is. opening up Alcatraz again. Yeah. Oh, I. didn't know that. That's amazing. I mean, a grand opening of Look, the. world's crazy, man. I like fun. And.

Trump saying he's going to reopen up. Alcatraz is fun to me cuz I know that. it's going to be like, yes, he is. Trump says he would reopen, enlarged, and rebuilt Alcatraz. It's. going to be the best Alcatraz. It's not. just going to be Alcatraz. We use a. federal penitentiary since 1963. Had a. capacity of roughly 300 people. Uh I. went there as a kid. Oh, really? Yeah. They when I was in what grade was I? So. it was I was in San Francisco from age 7. to 11. So I think I was 8 years old. I.

went over there a little trip. We went. on a ferry. You go to Alcatraz and you. think about like how the [ __ ] someone. could swim. How? Because Yeah. There's a. dude Nick Diaz, a UFC fighter. He's done. it five times. Swam from Alcatra. Yeah. Five times. Five times. I wouldn't do. that. You could in sharkinfested water. By the way, you couldn't [ __ ] pay me. to do that. [ __ ] all that. I mean, I can. swim like a [ __ ] But But do you. know the kind of balls you have to have. to know that you know you don't have a. life vest, you're just swimming. You.

have to be able to swim all the way to. shore with sharks underneath you. everywhere. And you know if they bite. you, you're dead. And you know they bite. people. I'd rather just be in prison. Really? Yeah, but he's doing it for. funsies. Diaz Diaz does it in between. MMA fights. He was doing this. Well, the. the Diaz brothers, that's a a set of. balls unlike, you know, like no other. Like those guys are legends, you know,

in every sense of the word. So that. doesn't surprise me at all actually that. they, you know, that they swim in from. Alcatraz. Makes sense. People missed. Nick's prime cuz Nick's prime a lot of. it happened in Strike Force. Like people. missed that that's when he was just like. just so dominant. So he came into the. UFC kind of later into his career. He. started the UFC very early. So he knocks. out Robbie Lawler early in his career, has some great fights early in his. career. So he was in the UFC early on, but then left the UFC and went over to.

Strikeforce where I think he like. reached his prime. Okay. Okay. Like when. he he beat Frank Shamrock and Cyborg, like he was in his [ __ ] prime over. there. Like a world championship caliber. prime. But that guy would swim across. Alcat from Alcatraz in between his like. he's training for fights and in between. training for fights. He's running. triathlons and hitting the bong while. he's doing it. Like it's hilarious. He's. high as [ __ ] running triathlons. You. ever just see someone, you're like, you're so different than me. So.

different. Like our lives couldn't be. more different. My friend Cam Haynes. right now is running a 250 mile race. with a broken foot. What? Bro, my foot was broken. I would. get it fixed and I definitely wouldn't. run. I might not ever run again. He's. He's doing half of the Daytona 500. Yeah. On a broken foot. On a broken foot. in the mountains. Going through the. mountains. No, thank you. Yeah. No, pass, please. I mean, I wouldn't I. wouldn't even go do that fat boy 5K. You.

think I'm going to be doing that? Oh my. god. Courtney Dwalter is currently in. second place. She's already run 48 miles. today. That's so nuts. When did it. start? Courtney Dalter is uh she we've. had her on the podcast before. She's an. animal. Like a pure animal. So it. started this morning. Is that what you. said? 48 miles. She's behind by three miles. right now. Who's ahead of her? A guy. named Herald Suberas. Does he win these. things? There's like only a few people. that like she's one of them, Courtney's.

one of them. There's only a few people. that win these things. A lot of people. start off real fast, but you can't keep. it up for three days. Could you imagine. running 48 miles in a day and you're in. second place? Not even in a day. Yeah. In like 5. hours. Yeah. Yeah. You imagine like you. run 48 miles and like, well, you lost. Like, bro, you're way you're three miles. behind. Like what? I Yeah. I'd put a shotgun in my mouth so. quick before I did any of that. But God, we need people like you and we need.

people like them. That's the beautiful. thing about the human race is that we're. all so [ __ ] different. Yeah. You. know, there's so many versions of humans. out there and we should really We should. celebrate that. That's a good thing. I. love how different like whenever I go. back and look at like people from. history or whatever I that's like one of. the things I like the most about it is. like how I'm like god that person's. night and day different from me but. that's so cool that they did what they. did or you know whatever like a Teddy.

Roosevelt like there's nothing about me. that is like Teddy Roosevelt. Well, how. about that dude that ate that guy's. heart that had been pickled for like Oh. yeah. Yeah. William Buckland. Yeah. He. ate King Louis the 14th's heart which. Yeah. been tell Yeah. Well, yeah, King. Louis the 14 just in general an absolute. nut job. You know, birthing fetish like. to watch women give birth, which yeah, don't don't we all? But yeah um but yeah. so he. dies 130 years later you know his heart. has been preserved in what I guess would.

be formaldahhide and it's sitting in. this guy's office basically and a fellow. um I think he was like the archbishop of. Canterbury I don't know some lord. whatever their little fruity little name. they give each other but uh then this. fell named William Buckland comes in as. and who had kind of like a notorious big. stomach ate a lot of weird [ __ ] And he. saw the heart and was like, "Holy hell, that's the heart of King Louis the 14th. I've never eaten the heart of a king. before. So, how about I just give it a.

try?" And then they come in, come back. in and he's eating the damn heart. raw. Well, preserved. I mean, it's about. as preserved as it gets. It's been. preserved forund. But he's not even. cooking it. That's my point. No, no, no, no. He didn't have like a hot plate in. there. He's pulling it out, boy. Yeah. Yeah. It wasn't in the microwave. Imagine being with that guy when he. takes those bites. You'd be like. Oh god, you be wretching. Like what are. you feeling now? A formaldi. Have you. ever dissected like an animal or. something in high school? Yeah. Yeah. That smell is like a smell that I can.

smell it right now thinking about it, you know? Like it's one of those things. that never leaves you. It's like a dead. body smell. Biting into a raw heart with. that smell. It's probably pretty tender. He tried to eat everything. A dosses. Captain Victorian feud hero. A gentleman. whose ambition was to eat an example of. every animal in. existence. Again, there's Courtney Dalter and Cam. Haynes who are running 250 miles right. now. And there's this dude who's like, I. want to eat one of everything. I want to. eat a [ __ ] rat. I mean, what a This.

guy ate rats. He probably had rabies. He. kept a pet jackal in his house. This guy. had a jackal in his house. He built the. country's first mosque, had a jackal in. his house. He lived in a hut made from. driftwood, dressed as a mermaid, and. excommunicated his cat. Yeah. Somebody. else though. I really should have done a. guy named Robert Hawker. Oh. Oh. To the. west. Famed Cornish poet Robert Steven. Hawker lived in a So this is not just a. bunch of weird guys that were living in. that time I think. Oh, then it goes into.

that. Oh, this is a different cat. Not. any of these were Oh, I thought it was. the same guy. Okay. This is just a bunch. of weirdos all throughout history. So. Charles uh Major General Charles George. Gordon. So it's the third paragraph. starts the William Buckland. I think. these are all eccentric guys from Oh, different people right here. Buckland. was born. Yeah, I think that's all going. to be about him. This is also pretty. good though. Don't leave this out. Right. So, this guy uh Major General. Charles George Gordon, a British Army. officer whose day job saw him fight a.

series of bloody campaigns across the. Middle East and Africa, yet was almost. as notorious for believing the earth was. encased in a hollow sphere and that the. Garden of Eden was located in the sea. somewhere off the coast of Seyells. Seells. People believe that now. Uh I. Yeah, but this guy who ate the heart, uh William Buckland, so the man who ate. everything, born in 1784, a year in. which famine in Japan claimed 300,000.

lives and a massive locust swarm hit. South Africa. Coincidence, of course, but it fits in the theme of this blog. nicely, so I'm leaving it in. So this. guy ate everything he could. long sho. He had his hand in a huge. hyena skull. He suddenly dashed down the. steps, rushed skull in hand, the first. undergraduate at the front bench, and. shouted, "What rules the world?" The. youth, terrified, answered, not a word. He rushed then onto me, pointing the. hyena full in my face. "What rules the. world?" "Having an idea," I said. "The.

stomach, sir," he cried, "rru rules the. world. The great ones eat the less, the. less, the lesser still." Mhm. So he just. thought he was going to be great by. eating everything. Here's some of the. stuff he was eating. So his lifelong. personal ambition, which was to eat an. example of every animal in existence. like some kind of crazy bloodthirsty. Noah. Oh my god. He ate a porpus, a puppy, and. a panther. A alliteration. And that's. just the peas. Mice on toast were a.

regular feature of his no doubt popular. suarees. My Oh my god. He ate a porpus. and a puppy. Jesus Christ. I mean, the. porpus probably wouldn't be so bad. I'd. eat the puppy. It's like ve dog ve. Yeah, I guess. I mean, I wouldn't necessarily eat like. Flag Stones to this prove a myth myth. identifying the flavor as bat urine. How would you How would you know that so. quick? Well, I think you had a rule for some reason.

But eating the heart, I bet all those. years of formaldahhide is probably quite. tender, right? Yeah. Melt your mouth. What if it just. tasted amazing for some reason, right? What if it got your eye? Oh my god. Yeah. That's how you find God. Says some. guy had it. A guy had it. Yeah. Lord. Hardcourt. That's who I was who I was. Esoterica. Imagine how mad he would be. find out some guy ate your heart that. you've been saving. Be pissed. The worst thing Buckland ever ate. Blue. bottles. What does that blue bottles.

mean? Was that It's a tie. About to find. out. had a fish starter at Mazos. I. think this is might be some sort of uh. Is it just a jug by the blue bottles? What could that be? Unless he's actually. eating glass. I don't think that's what. it Oh, Portuguese man of war. Oh, that's. a pretty cool looking thing. Wow, that. looks like a mermaid. Yeah, click on. that one. The upper Yeah, right there. No, the one to the one to the right of. that. Yeah, look at that [ __ ] thing. Yeah, you know, wild. I kind of do want.

to eat that. I'm sort of with them on. this. So, is that like a jellyfish? Yeah, man is a jellyfish. So, that must. be insanely toxic. But I think Manowar, aren't they like Yeah, like super. venomous. Eat that. Of course, it's the. worst. It's like literally could kill. you. That doesn't seem like it'd be the. worst thing, though. Well, he didn't eat. everything. I guess he probably died. along the way. Like, you could only do. that for so long before your body says, "Fuck you." Yeah. I wonder how long you. lived. Yeah. How long did that guy live?

Huh? Find out how long that guy Have you. ever heard How old was that guy when he. died? 1856. Oh, he lived for a pretty good. amount of time. Pretty decent amount of. time. 84 to 72. Pretty decent amount of. time eating everything he could. That's. a ripe ripe age for back then, too. When. there's no [ __ ] doctors, the doctors. are all guessing. Yeah. And coming to. your house one after another. And they. break your leg. They bust out a meat. saw. Yeah. Like, wash my hand. They tie. that [ __ ] leg down and saw it off at.

the hip and you're screaming. He tell. you to bite a piece of leather. That was. a doctor back then. They thought germs. didn't exist. Listister, dirty fingers. pulling babies out. Everybody's dying of. sepsis. Nuts. Have you ever heard of a. Terrar? Terar was a guy. A T A R R A R. E. I think. What's this, Jamie? Um, he. kind of discovered dinosaurs. Jeez. What? Same guy. Yeah. That ate. everything. Yeah. Whoa,

that's another fun one. The dinosaurs. aren't real. That's a fun one. I can buy. it to an extent because there are so. many fakes. But the the reality in the. early days of dinosaur research, there. was two guys that were competing with. each other and they were faking fossils. there. That's true. But also dinosaurs. are real. But also like Yeah. Like that. alligator gar, that's a [ __ ] living. dinosaur. Yeah, they used to exist for. sure. Well, some of the like real big ones,

you're like, they've never found one of. those. They just find like a some stuff, right? They find some stuff and then. they go, "Well, we think it probably. looked like this based on its vertebrae. looking like this." And when you go see. the skeleton at, you know, the Perau. Museum or whatever, it's all that's all. fake. Like that's there's maybe one. piece in there that's real, right? Like. I can kind of get the I can get the. skepticism behind that a little bit. But. to say like, oh, the whole thing's like. that there is no such thing as a.

dinosaur. That's [ __ ] It seems. silly that people would just lie openly. about that. But there are some that are. intact. Like they found some raptors. that are intact. They found some stuff. that's intact. Uh I have a friend and. his buddy found a [ __ ] T-Rex in. Montana completely in that's I don't. know how much of it they found. They. found quite a bit of it though to the. point where they brought in a. professional excavation and they they. pulled out this big ass [ __ ] T-Rex in. Montana. Could you imagine, bro? Montana. used to be a part of the great inland. sea. There was a there was a a sea in.

that there's like seashells up there. which is nuts. Jesus. This probably what. like the bad lands were. I I mean what. was it called? There was like a. particular name for like the great there. was a North American like inland ocean. Yeah. Which is bananas, man. Ocean of. America. Yeah, that's a And there's. T-Rexes around it. Like that's God. Imagine if there was like one point in. the history, the western interior. seaway. Oh, so that's what it looked. like. A large island se inland sea that.

existed roughly over present day great. plains of North America. Wow. That's if. there was a time that you could just. look at that. Look at what it used to. look like. That's so nuts. So there's a Yeah. And look at the. Appalachians. Like that's what America. looked like. Florida was completely. underwater. That's nuts. Most of Texas. back soon. Yeah. Yeah. That's like where. we are is like above water, but [ __ ]. man. That's crazy how much water there. was. Okay. There's a good Yeah. Yeah. So.

all of Texas is underwater. Yeah. It's. the whole Texas. Oh my god. Yeah. Like. Nevada's not and Tulsa's all right. They. made it out. Massachusetts is okay. Yeah, that is crazy to see how big that. was. Yeah, that's And there's all kinds. of nutty [ __ ] that was living in that. water, too, man. Jesus. Yeah. I mean, cuz a gar is like the least of That's. like the That's like a minnow compared. to some of the [ __ ] that was It's a. chicken compared to like a a great. eagle. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

That like a host eagle. The eagles that. hunted people in New Zealand. Yeah. That's so crazy. Eagles jack people. God. [ __ ] man. They think that's why. they went extinct. I hope they bring. dinosaurs back. They probably are going. to. Yeah. I mean, part of me is kind of. against it, but then part of me is. because Josh Park's my favorite movie. So, they got a the leather. Did you see. the leather? T-Rex. T-Rex purse. Yeah, they're going to make T-Rex purses. I'm. going to get a T-Rex fanny pack. Jesus.

For sure. I mean, I'm going to rock that. [ __ ] What What more badass of a thing. could there possibly be than a T-Rex. fanny pack? I know, right? I would. Yeah. T-Rex Crocs company claims leather. made from 66 million year old dinosaur. DNA is coming. Yeah. I think uh some. people are very skeptical about this. We. should probably uh say this. One of the. things that the guys from um Colossal. were telling me, the guys who re. resurrected the direwolf. Yeah. Yeah. They were telling me, Ben Lamb was. telling me that when it comes to like.

DNA of dinosaurs, they don't really have. DNA of dinosaurs. It's too old. They. don't have like full DNA profiles, right? Or whatever you would call it. But what they will be able to do is sort. of engineer a dinosaur, which is even. crazier. Like take take the surviving. creatures like chickens, [ __ ] like that, that have dinosaur DN cuz chickens are. full-on dinosaurs. Take their their. their DNA and engineer a T-Rex out of. that.

Or a raptor. A raptor like way smarter. than a crow. How about that? Oh my. Like. hunting people through the woods. Little. 5 foot [ __ ] creepy super lizard that. can run 50 miles an hour. Clever girl. Yeah, that would be uh God, dude. I'd. love it. I hope they do. They could do. that. They're really Look, if they can. take human beings and integrate them. with tardigrade DNA and have them become. [ __ ] superheroes. Yeah, they can make. a dinosaur, man. They made a wolf. They.

made direwolves. They made three of. them, which is insane. So crazy, too. It's nuts. Like they exist. They're like. I think they're like 11 months old now. or something like that. Oh, it's that. Jesus. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They're They. don't um Ben Lamb told me he doesn't go. around them anymore. Like he bottlefed. them when they were puppies, but then. when they got to a certain age, he's. like, "Uh, I think we're done." Like. after like four or five months, like I. think we're done. What was that, Jamie? It's just that the the T-Rex DNA is 66. million years old. It dies. The DNA.

starts to go away as soon as they die. And the oldest preserved DNA on record. currently is only two million years old. Yeah. So it wouldn't be a T-Rex, I. guess. So it wouldn't be a T-Rex, but. they might be able to make exactly what. we think a T-Rex was. But we we would be. really off because we don't know what. their tissue looked like. That's what. where it gets really strange. Like all. the stuff that rots away. Mhm. Have you. ever seen like an artist depiction of. what uh if they take a hippo skull like. what an artist depiction of what the. animal could look like? No. It look like.

a monster. Oh yeah. Like some crazy. monster. And then you see the reality. It's like, oh, hungry hungry hippo. Big. old sweetie. Hippo looks like a sweetie. with cute little ears. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know. Yeah. But then artists have. depicted it like if we didn't know what. it looked like, maybe it looked like. this, right? You know. Yeah. Have you. seen That's crazy. The meme says al how. aliens would reconstruct it. So I I Oh, that's interesting. Yeah. Well, still. see. Oh, okay. The one in the middle. But you could like if you came from.

another planet and you saw this like oh. my god this thing must have been a. terrific looking beast. Yeah. Oh wow. The skull how aliens reconstruct the. animal and it's an elephant. Wow. Oh. that's cool. Yeah. I bet that's where. the cyclops myth comes from. Elephant. skulls. That actually makes per I've. never seen an elephant skull so I had no. clue there was which the trunk. I don't. I don't even know if it's real elephant. skull. I think it is. That's got to be.

I mean, it makes sense cuz the trunk. just goes right to the mouth. Yeah. Yeah, bro. It has to be where the. cyclops comes from. Has to be, right? Has to. Yeah. Especially if you found a. female one that didn't have tons. I. think it's listening to you, but it's. called inspire. Well, no. What' you say, Jamie? Every like when I I didn't even. type in Cyclops and it was the first. thing that was on top. Maybe it's. because that's a theory that's been. around for a long time. Well, there was. I've been noticing that. Yeah, look, it. says that right there. Right there. Reddit. The Cyclops is likely inspired. by I'm noticing this happen a lot.

You'll be saying something and think the. government's listening. The first thing. I'll type auto completing what you just. They're fans of the show, Jamie. They're. trying to help out, but it makes sense. I mean, if you found. stuff from a long I mean, what do you. think? Here's one that always gets me. Stories of giants. I want that to be real. So, I mean, I. want all that the Smithsonians been. hiding the information. Those those are. the big. conspirac they've got like a 10- foot. tall human being. A race of giants that.

existed roam the earth. Yeah. David and. Goliath. A real story. It just seems like they wouldn't be. gone. They wouldn't be the ones that. would have been killed off. Unless in. the cataclysm, like the younger dus. impact theory, there wasn't enough food. Oh. And they died off, you know, because. if you're that big, you need to eat a. lot. So, you think they were they were around. like way long ago? They died off way. long ago. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think like.

recently, but I think like it is there's. so many stories and so many cultures. have these stories even in the Bible of. a race of giants. Like it seems like it. couldn't just be big people, right? It. seems like what they're talking about is. something crazy. I guess it could be if. you're just because because if you're. just, you know, myth mythologizing, there's no way that's a word, but if. you're just, you know, turning something. that is real, this the same with like a. dragon, you know, people obviously just. get inspired by things that are around. them. They start to morph into things. I.

mean, there was no fire breathing animal. flying around. Probably crocodiles and. [ __ ] like that. Yeah, crocodiles. And. then and then there are, you know, like. cobras that spit venom, which obviously. gets in your eyes, probably going to. burn like a son of a [ __ ] So like. there's like the fire myth. I mean, and. people exaggerate. Yeah. So ex I'm. saying so like people will take somebody. who is a big son of a [ __ ] and they go. oh well let's you know exaggerate and. say that the guy he fought was 9 ft tall. 6'5 he was yeah but also um when you.

talk about races of these giants you. could also be talking about like people. from Iceland right who were naturally. enormous Viking dudes who were always. win those [ __ ] strongmen competitions. you know those guys are there's giants. up there like 400 like mountain from. Game of Thrones, like that kind of. person. So, you think about that, like. that's that size human, right? There. could have been a bunch of those around. and maybe that's what they were talking. about giants or there could have been. like a specific race of humans. Like.

they keep finding these additional types. of humans like they found Dennis Ovenans. fairly recently and then that other one. that we brought up the other day, the. big-headed people, that's fairly. recently. They've discovered that this. is a completely different branch that. there may I mean but here's the thing if. they did find those would they tell us. like if archaeologists like who would. put the cap on that if they found like a. 10-ft human under like a just gigantic. dead human with a huge sword underground.

like would they would they just say. we're wrong giants existed or would they. go people can't handle this? That's a. tough because that's the answer to or. that's the question for so many things. They might say people can't handle it. It's not outside the realm of. possibility. I I would say yeah they. probably say isn't that infuriating? Yeah. Can you imagine if it was you? Now, imagine you're out in West Texas, wherever you are, hanging out with your. friends, and uh somebody notices.

something in the ground, and you start. digging and you pull out a [ __ ] thigh. bone that's this big, and you plop it. down, you go, "What the [ __ ] is that?". And then you got a buddy who works at. the university nearby and he starts. digging. He's like, "Hey, dude, this is. a [ __ ] human foot." And he pulls out. a human foot that's size 38. You're. like, "What is going on, man?" And so. then you bring in some experts and like, "Holy [ __ ] dude. This is a giant." And. then they do DNA tests. They find out. it's a real a real actual creature.

Yeah. I'm I'm telling everyone. Yeah. They're. going to kill you. They're going to kill. you. The scientists will kill you. They're going to run you off the road. Yeah. All longest or I guess it would be the. tallest that people have ever found that. they've ever found. It was found in. China. It's supposedly about 4,400 years. old. would have been about 16 18 years. old. The weird thing here is though that. it says there was three drill holes. found in the skull and they don't know. why.

Whoa. Drill holes. How big was it? Uh. 6'4. Oh. Oh, [ __ ] Well, back then that. was probably [ __ ] huge. He said they. found it in China. Yeah, that that's a. giant. And they're calling it Yeah, they. call it might be Mongolian, you Well, well, compared to the Chinese that are. founded, you're probably like, "Holy. [ __ ] this Goliath is anywhere from. modern day, maybe they say, up to 66, but like taking the word for word from. the Bible, it have been about 99." Yeah, that's what I always. thought weight, right? Well, if you back.

then, nobody had any food and the. average man was probably like 5'4. So, if you encounter some dude who's. 66, some big jack guy, that is a giant. That's a giant. And then also like you. got to think human beings if they exist. today and they're 66 they had the. potential to be that big back then they. just didn't get the food. Yeah. But if. you are in some very nutrientrich. environment. both those guys played pro basketball. Mugsy is Mugsy Bugsy. but there's smaller people that exist.

that can function and do stuff. Oh yeah. for sure. But what's crazy is that the. potential for that guy the Yao guy who's. how tall is he? 2007, I think. Well, that exists in the human genome, right? That's not like we engineered them like. we did dogs like that exists. So maybe. back then if you had a ton of food and. you you didn't have to worry about war. like and people just kept breeding and. growing and getting nutrientrich because. the thing about people in the past was. they didn't need any [ __ ] food, man.

Yeah. Like the average size of a guy who. fought in the Civil War was I think 125. pounds or something crazy. 5 foot4 and. 120 I think is the thing. Yeah. starving. to death. Starving, shooting people with. muskets. 14-year-old girl. I mean, that's like Yeah. Right. And all they. needed was food. You know, you give them. you give them protein and then they grow. normal sized, which is really wild. Yeah. Cuz there's tons of people that. are well over 7 feet. It's not like it's. I mean, it is an anomaly compared to. Speaking of, there's one guy in the. Civil War, 76. He would have stood out a.

little bit, but everything everybody. else was 5'8 average. He was 7 foot six. in the Civil War. Holy [ __ ] Is that Oh, that's not a picture of them, I guess. Yeah. The thing about the stories in the. Bible though, it's like these are like. mystical giants. The Nephilim, you know, this guy. So, he's There you go, bro. You do not want to box that guy. 76. 76. She must be pretty tall. Yeah. I mean, she probably needed to do that big. Take.

care of her. Yeah, probably. Yeah. Yeah. She can be in this 5'8 guy. Yeah. She. can't be [ __ ] with me. She's like, "What are y'all?" Yeah, she'll hold me. down. I'll have to fight that lady to. the death. No chance. She needs a big man. A big. giant man to [ __ ] her correctly. Yes. Yeah. But the the stories from the Bible. and the stories from like you know. different like even like the ancient. Samrian culture like when they they had. the depictions of the Anunnaki and these. big giant people. Yeah. Like what was. that? Like what is that all about? Like. is that a story about a thing that used.

to be real or is it [ __ ] Because it. seems like the more we uncover with. ancient history, just like Troy and. probably Atlantis, the more you realize. like none of it was [ __ ] It was. just their version of trying to tell you. the story. Yeah. You know, and that this. all this stuff about the Nephilim and. the Anunnaki and all there's probably is. is there's some sort of a story. It's. just parsing out what it really was. after a thousand years of people just. telling it before somebody writes it.

down. Yeah, that's I think it's more. just Yeah, you know, you're getting word. of mouth over so like such a long time. and and it's probably exaggerated from. the jump because you're just trying to. tell trying to tell a story like. creativity isn't a new thing, you know? People were always creative and and. always lying. Yeah. And always lying and. always trying to like use their. imagination, exaggerate. Yeah. And. ultimately to create some sort of. allegory, right? So I don't think any of. it was true. I think it was all just,

you know, they I think it makes sense. how it all got created and how every. culture has their own version. And to. me, it's like an echo of the truth. It's. like there's there's an echo there. Like, God, what was the original thing? What was it all about? Cuz like there's. an echo to a lot of it. A lot of ancient. stories and a lot of religious stories, too. They're just like, man, I I think. something was going on. And I think this. is the echo of like this historical.

depiction of probably something real. that went down like the no in the ark. story. I think that's a. historical that's a depiction of that. flood that we saw that wiped out. Atlantis without a doubt. I mean that's. part of the ep epic of Gilgamesh. There's a giant flood. I mean that's the. oldest story ever written that we know. of. I mean, and and it's not the only. one that depicts a massive flood. Yeah, pretty much every religion that's that. old has some story involving a flood.

And I think I think when you apply that. to all the other stories, too, you. should probably assume that it wasn't. fiction. It might not be accurate. because of all the factors that we. already laid out, because of people, but. it's probably the echoes of a real. story. Well, the flood is Yeah. So I do. think that cuz that's part of allegory. is like taking something that is real. and then you you just make like a almost. a fairy tale out of it. But like you. still have the because you're telling in.

that sense you're like saving history. like you're preserving history but. you're not doing it in the sense that we. would as we would do it now where we. would like dictate time and date and. names. You're just saying, "Oh, there. was this great event that happened in. your our ancestors time." And and if. they figured this out, imagine if they. figured out all these things thousands. and thousands of years ago. Then you. have the flood, the impacts, society has. to rebuild. Then you're telling these. stories over and over and over after all. this time. Yeah. That would kind of. account for a lot of things for sure.

And one of them would be that God. created the universe in six days. Yeah. Cuz like what is the big bang, right? What is six days? Like what are you. saying? Like what does that mean? Is it. just a short amount of time? Is that. what you're trying to say? Is that like. 72 virgins? You know, when they say 72. virgins in heaven, they don't really. mean 72 virgin. It's like a fuckload. It's like the way of saying [ __ ] Like. when you say God created the universe in. six days. Like maybe that means maybe. that's the big bang. Like maybe you're. literally talking about the birth of the.

universe. Yeah. In a very short period. of time. Yeah. It could. Yeah. Just. boom. If the universe is infinite, it's. been around forever. What is like that. quick burst? What is that? Yeah. I mean that's Yeah, that's a I. mean that's how if you were trying to. recall that story, right, you would say. yeah on this day this happened, this day. that happened, but ultimately it's just. day after day after day and then seven. day you rest and otherwise. Yeah. Yeah. If you were trying to explain the birth. of the universe that happened like you. people were talking about it for.

thousands of years and then someone. wrote it down on clay tablets thousands. of years later. These are just the. memories of some ancient knowledge where. people really had reached a level of. sophistication that we could only. imagine. Yeah. And they were just. flatlined right back to cave people. again. Yeah. I mean that's what h Yeah. Cuz like Greek mythology all those myth. it's like an actual birth. Like there's. it all happen starts with like there's. darkness and then there's light. Yep. And that's like a common theme with.

pretty much every religion, every. mythology is there was a sea of. darkness, then there was a light. And. yeah, what if that's their version of. the description of the Big Bang? Yeah. It's just turning on a light, right? That's how you describe the Big Bang to. someone who has no concept of science. Like no idea. What are you talking. about? Atoms? What? What? Molecules, subatomic particles, what the [ __ ] are. you even saying? Exactly. You'd be like, yeah, imagine walking into a dark room. and flicking a light switch and suddenly. everything's here. There was light. Yeah. I mean, that's the common theme. throughout any of those religions. Yeah.

Well, I think the appeal of like a page. like yours and the kind of that kind of. things, it's like people always love to. learn cool [ __ ] and interesting [ __ ]. Yeah. You know, whether it's interesting. [ __ ] about the the universe or UFOs or. crazy people throughout history, guy who. wrote Outlaw Josie Wells being a piece. of [ __ ]. Like, I mean, the KKK is just not good. They aren't big enough [ __ ]. Meanwhile, it's such a good movie. It. sucks. Yeah, it is. I mean, and yeah,

it's not like you can't watch the damn. movie, but you got to separate the man. from the art always. And then also, there's a bunch of other influences, I'm. sure, where they wrote the script and. changed a bunch of things. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, I People love learning [ __ ]. You just got to make it interesting. Yeah. School. I hated school, but I had. a couple teachers that made it. interesting, and I loved every day going. to those classes. Every other class. could get [ __ ] I was trying to skip. I was trying to do whatever I could to. get out of there. Like yeah fortunate, right? It's like enthusiasm of the.

teacher is so important and the. competency of the teacher so important. It makes like I had a teacher Mr. Simmons. It was a high school like. history teacher and every day would tell. like a story kind of similar to that. like or not every day but every day. before like a big test he would that's. how he started off like clear your minds. like don't worry about this test like. I'm going to tell you some and he had. like this real deep like booming voice. It was like the most fascinating [ __ ]. ever. And he would just he would just. tell this story that had nothing to do. with the Ted. It doesn't matter. Like. he's like this is just interesting. Like. y'all would like this. It's great. Those.

people are so important. I mean he's. that's Yeah. That guy like probably. inspired me to do all kind like more. probably Yeah. It didn't It took until I. was long out of school before I really. started getting interested in learning. things. Yeah. Yeah. I mean I didn't. start really just diving into [ __ ] until. after school. Like I I felt like I all. the way through school, through college, you know, got my degree and all that. I. don't think I learned a damn thing. I. learned that college was a waste of. time. That's You learned how to get some.

student debt. Yeah, dude. Did I? Yeah. Yeah. That's all I I mean, I didn't. learn a [ __ ] thing from any of that. But they'll tell you that that's the. only way to go. No. Which is just like, how do you know? We're in space. Yeah. We're in space. This is crazy. Like the. the the people in the 1900s figured it. out forever. It can't be improved upon.
