0:01 Yeah, I think there's a certain level of addiction, Megan, to where you're, like, just wasting away and your body is just rotting. And because, like, you have, you no longer brush your teeth, you no longer wash your body, etc.. And so she would make the rounds in this neighborhood, and, you know, use the same story asking people for, for money for her kids and blah, blah, blah.

0:25 Or she was frightening it. Want to be clean? Yeah. And, she didn't even remember that she had talked to you before or even same day. Oh, gosh. Wow. And, it's good for business. You hit you up with the same story every time. Yeah, yeah. And so, like, she heard us talking about. Oh, God. And so, I went ahead and talked to my neighbor Carl the other day.

0:52 This guy's plugged into the neighborhood. I'm pretty sure he's, like, one of the king things in the neighborhood. All right. And kingpin, he went ahead and.

1:05 He's telling me. He said she's got cleaned up. So she stood and she's having a segment. Love this. I love to hear those kind of success stories. No. She does. You know, I love the success story. We're like, well, I'd like to think that our talking shit may have helped my, you know, sometimes that sometimes, like, ridicule is the ultimate change.

1:24 Like, yeah, loves me. When I was okay, I was just talking to Sue about it the other day. But I was saying that, like, kids these days, like kids that are just freshly coming into high school as a senior, I can say this. Well, previously, you have this perspective. I do the ninth graders of freshmen and sophomores.

1:42 Like bullying, just like doesn't really exist anymore. At least not like in person. Okay. And and so that was in the subtle online channel. Yeah. Like these these kids literally were coming to my school wearing, like, dog collars and cat ears and all these other things, stuff that I would have gotten like, so bully for. I would have done them first.

2:03 The stuff that I would have gotten so bullied for when I was there, and I wouldn't have done it again. But there's nobody to bully these kids to get it, to not do that.

2:13 So what you were saying to curb the more weird Elmo? Yeah. So there is a certain amount of bullying that's, like, necessary to appropriate society. Perfect amount of bullying. It helps keep kids socially accountable. That that's exactly what I want. It calls a school meeting in the gymnasium and saying we need to up our bullying. Bullying said critically low levels we can't have.

2:39 I'm just I mean, we don't need any of the bullying. Like, you know, I went through things where people were like, okay yourself. You know, like that people, we don't need to throw people into holly bushes, you know, you're such a non bully. I have to go to remedial bully brain. Maybe that's it. They're like holy isn't no critical levels.

2:58 Who wants to volunteer for remedial bully training? And everyone's afraid to step up because they're being bullied by the anti-bullying. The anti bully bullies right. Yeah. Yep. That's awesome. But yeah everybody just says what they want to say online and they don't say it in person anymore. Wow. Because they have the cover of anonymity. Exactly. Exactly. So there's this like indirect bullying, like this indirect version of ridicule.

3:23 That's that's like, extremely useful sometimes, a person that will go unnamed was asked. Oh, wow. Congratulations. When you do. And there's no response was I'm not pregnant. So hold on, hold on. And so this this said individual ended up in the gym that same day and and and stuck to it for six months. Well that is powerful.

3:50 I will say, you know, my ex wife, she had a similar situation and ended up getting weight loss surgery, going from 300 plus pounds to somewhere around 160. Oh, wow. Yeah. And then, so the the follow up story, this person I'm talking about two ended up like getting in pretty decent shape. Great. Ended up getting married and having a kid that that never would have happened.

4:16 Probably otherwise. Right. Yeah. Isn't that amazing? So like so like and in in, what's it called? An indirect or like, what's the word? Unintended bullying session. Right by this dude asking when she's due. Right. Just trying to be polite. Like triggered. It's not crazy. This life changed. And, So, like, sometimes the red amount of ridicule is perfect.

4:44 I can't remember the name of the short story, but we mentioned it before. There's an Isaac Asimov story that is about the whole idea is.

4:55 The the powers that the powers that be. They deem them almost like angels in this story. I say one of them bets another because they're bored. Hey, that was in the middle. I stepped on my bet, figured that all guys are secondary. I can't take this. Well, it's. This is. This is a definite weird landscape. Navigate. It's not even worry about.

5:20 But. Yeah. So, these angels, so to speak, went ahead and. Oh, look at this funnel cake RV. I already trust that that's what your dad said. I said I would totally eat it. This this is like, positively ADHD podcast, and it's because I'm here. It's because I'm here. No, no ADHD jet Stream podcast. That's not a set of puppy.

5:45 I don't care. Look at it. Sleep happy. He also puppy. Was it? Let's not touch. You know, when I. When I saw that dog reactors. Now I just thought that TikTok. Yeah. Be happy. Oh, with the the tail wagging. Yeah. So anyway, these angels let's get the angels. They went ahead and, one bet, the other said, look, I bet I can get a class A effect out of a class C stimulus gambling angels.

6:14 Yeah, we were just talking about that on the way over here. We were talking about I. I asked him if, gambling should or shouldn't be wiggle. And it just so happened that we just were passing the sign of it. Powerball. Walmart. Airball. Well, because we I started talking about it because we saw an arcade and he is like he said, I'm gonna figure out why there's always someone at those arcades.

6:36 He said, I'm going to figure it out. We'll talk about that. But I want to hear the rest of his angels. They're the same idea. Class. Class. A effect arising from class Z stimulus. And. Okay, you know, the other angels like bullshit. You can't do that. So what the guy does is, this, Russian scientist who works in the US, and it's kind of had a fair to Midland career.

7:05 He, he's advised by his wife's psychic as he just comes to pick her up from the appointment to change his name. Oh, and he's like, that's bullshit. I should I'm not gonna do it. Well, his wife convinces him to do it. She's like, because the guy specifically said, anglicized your name a little bit. So the anglicized is his name and the government watchdogs, because this is supposed to be based around somewhere around the 50s.

7:38 Who are keeping track of him? Notice the angular size is his name. And keep further track of them. They basically up his career, give him a better position. They give him something they can monitor. I see, I see. So he's under more scrutiny. Yeah, he's under more scrutiny, but he doesn't know it. I see. And then his career.

7:59 Just meteoric rise. So the angel won the bet. They won the bet. Cool. That's almost like trading places where they asked for a dollar. Right. They get they they take down, they take the street hoodlum and they turn them into the, top performing executive and take the top performing executive and turn them into a low life right over a dollar bet.

8:20 And I mean that Trading Places movie. I, I feel like it's comedy because that is what will go down. Oh my gosh. Hell yeah, 100%. And you know, I wouldn't be a bit surprised that people don't do that in real life. Like just so bored can do. That's the premise for Squid Game. Oh my. Is this rich dude so bored that they just create this thing, right?

8:43 They just basically put people in compromising situations and see what they do. Right. This is their bored. You know what? If I see another TV show with that concept of like, you know, rich people and then having, like, usually poor people, you saw it in the Divergent series and The Hunger Games, you saw it in Squid Games, and they're probably more out there.

9:03 Well, you think they're all a true story. Hear me out. People. There are their own. There's an allegory there, There's a tale that they're trying to get across that is a somewhat subtle. That's Sam fisted, but it's somewhat subtle. Yeah. That they're trying to say, look, these rich people are controlling you. Their their vagaries, their will is what shapes our society and our world.

9:30 The billionaires make our world. I don't know, I'm, I'm a little I'm a little against the upper crust. The, the 1%. Yeah. It could go down to like the 0.05%.

9:48 But you know also another thing that I just noticed as we were walking is how in less than like I don't know 500 steps the houses went from being, you know, little cute ones like that tiny to these guys. Yeah. They're all becoming these things. This area is being gentrified, like big kind of big word. I'm going to put that in my in my dictionary.

10:09 You write down your notebook, a little notebook. I do every time I hear a word that like I really like, I'll literally will rip it down. Well, hey, that's a that's a great idea. One of the things I used to, I created my vocabulary partially was having had to do dictionary pages as punishment. Yeah. Sounds like really, Malcolm X there.

10:33 You know what that reminds me of is when, you. My father used to make me do multiplication cards every morning. Hey, are paid off, and you know all that. And then when I got in trouble. Guess what? Multiplication cards. So even when I wasn't being punished, I still had to do multiple things, you know? And I'm still upset that my brothers don't have to do it.

10:57 Yeah, just not yet. You have to do it around this time. So she'd be fair. She'd be fair. They. Well, one of them is learning a language, so I'm pretty sure that that's close to being equivalent intellectually. Trunks. Yeah. Well, station cards and money. And, like, I was teaching when I was, had Megan and Alan some others in my training session.

11:17 I was saying over and over that mathematics was like foreign language. You have to learn the language of mathematics. It's true. And I made them keep a little notebook with terms and definitions. Oh, don't even ask me what happened to that notebook. I probably ate it. I don't know. Well, as long as you retain some of it, that's fine.

11:32 Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you could have absorbed some of the words by his nose as well. Yes, yes. So Megan was asking me if I thought gambling should be illegal. I said, yes, of course it should be legal, but heavily regulated so that it's fair and equitable. Like, you know, gambling is never fair, but like fair that it's disclosed and regulated, right?

11:48 Just like the Vegas. So you've got an idea of roughly the odds you have a winning. Yeah. And prostitution should be legal and regulated, just like, you know, why not tax and regulate all the vices? Because we're going to do them anyway. Exactly. And then they're above board. And you don't have to create an unmarked. And then and then the people that are doing it within the system are against those that are doing it in.

12:10 Secondarily, I should know easily invest in those vices. Right. I am all about vice invest, because that's the one thing you can count on, whether it's whether there's an economic downturn or not. People are going to drink. People are going to have illicit sex. And people are going to do drugs. You know what. I find it really funny.

12:33 They don't call this prostitution. But you pay a foreign actress to have sex either guy. But because you're filming it, it's fine. It's legal. Right. And you have to have a license. And in the industry is regulated. So they they have to be tested often for whatever reason. That isn't that pretty much the same thing is. Yes. As prostitutes.

12:50 Yeah, exactly. It's a channel for prostitution. Yeah. It is. And sex. Okay. Travis Barker, wonderful person and drummer for blink 182. That married. Was it, quote, Kardashian? Maybe. Did you say Kardashian? My eyes glaze over my my brain. My brain goes to sleep. Okay. So weird little punk counterculture guy that married into the ultimate, you know, mainstream culture.

13:18 And, he, he had a post a few years back that his daughter that tried to cancel him over. Oh, his daughter's name is Alabama. Oh, so Alabama tried to cancel him because he had a post about a foreign star. This porn star that was one of his favorites visited him with her boyfriend. Who?

13:46 Who ultimately ended up being her hand alert. Okay. Oh, boy. And, well, her pimp, basically. Oh, because her pimp pretty much said, yeah, I'll trader for some merch on an online post. Oh my god. Oh my gosh. But the thrust of the online post was he goes she wants a smoke. Wow. Yeah. And so his daughter started to have him cancel over it.

14:17 Yeah. And and couldn't the whole thing just be staged? Right. But the post was, like, from before she was born, and she's, like, 18 now. Nice magic trying to cancel your fighter. Oh, I could see it happening. I mean, I, I can't sleep. The classic is just don't communicate like, that's like this classic porn. But now we're talking about full social media, right?

14:39 Like trying to get everybody to dog probably on social media type thing.

14:46 That's the idea. Yeah, yeah. It's like I'm mad. So I'm going to take revenge on you on this global platform. Send these, everybody I can muster on social media after you think it's okay. Another half a dog. Oh, I was going to say, I think, Megan, you're perfect for this brief discussion that we wanted to have. I wanted to mention.

15:14 Because of that movie? Nope. I wanted to mention. Our collective obsession with spectacle for profit, without purpose. Basically, the whole social media thing. Spectacle for profit without purpose. Yeah, that's that's an interesting phrase. Like it? You like it? Yeah, that's interesting phrase. Because you. I did for profit without purpose. But what? Why why would social media not have purpose?

15:45 Well, I guess there is a ultimately a, you know, one could say, hey there, you're trying to up your your profile. You're a, you're trying to grow your network. You're trying to have a platform to further monetize. But yeah. Entertainment I mean those those purposes that are kind of nebulous. And Lindsay. But people will do. I guess what I'm trying to say is the people who will do anything to go viral.

16:19 Yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah, that that spectacle, that that show even, even, Kim Kardashian releasing her own sex tape, that spectacle without a obvious and immediate purpose, I guess, to me. Well, the purpose is to gain popularity, get interest, get buzz around your name. Even bad publicity. Better than notebook. So that one YouTuber, Logan Paul, who sounds the dead man hanging in a.

16:49 It was in a forest in Japan. No. And then posting that online without any like this happened in 2017. Yes, I remember that. Yeah, I remember like because I saw the video before it got removed and I was like, honestly like sick. I was like, how could somebody do something like that? But you still gave him a view?

17:11 Yeah. You know, and, and his name was on your lips, like your dad said. And that that person's name, he's known. He's like a known. You be logger or YouTube or whatever, right? Yeah. Yeah, he is. And he has a podcast now. Okay. And I guess every wannabe gets the podcast and he's also a boxer. Oh thing.

17:31 He tried to go against Mayweather. That one that I heard of. Yeah. So he's he's stupid. But anyway. Well he has won a few times. Believe it or not. Okay. I don't want to believe it, but I know I wanted him to get his ass kicked every time, but it hasn't happened. Anyway, he's like a perfect example of somebody who would keep driving at, like, these crazy things.

17:54 Yeah. Doing whatever it takes. Yeah, yeah. And. Okay. Like the girl with the dead squid or something. He. He reviewed the octopus. Oh, he's. There's a bell girl. Her name is, Bell. Delphine. Bell. Delphine. He was trending on TikTok when it first. Like when? So back when I was in my first year of school. That's when TikTok was, like, not popular.

18:17 Really, yet a popular enough. And so where you can still make money on it if you were training on it. So the so the so the Karens or the soccer moms hadn't been on there yet. Pretty much. It was before like he was like free mom. You know, honestly, I used to actually get into his father for for being on TikTok like that.

18:36 Wow. Yeah. But now it's like everybody has to happen. Anyway, as soon as the adult, you know, Karen or a soccer mom gets on something or or creates or starts using, you know. Yeah, that's the original. That's that's the death row of the thing, right? So like when, when middle aged housewife soccer moms started saying on fleek, on, on on fleek was dead.

18:58 It was right there in there. Yeah. Yeah. Am I wrong? Yeah. It was so bad. But anyway. Oh, that's so funny. TikTok used to be actually a platform for people, not a platform, but it was a marketed platform for people who did things like cosplays. Yeah, people that were more on fleet. Yeah, well, people that were more like, I don't know.

19:19 You guys know the culture of Reddit, but Reddit is more like so like nerdy type. We do nerdy type people. So that's our that's one of the elements of our social media coming up is read it. Okay. Reddit. There's all sorts of subreddits. It's not just nerdy people. See, I just recently started using Reddit, my friends, as an easy IT for a while.

19:41 And, you know, I used to think that, well, I used to. Sean's louder. So it comes better on the on the camera? I used to that on the on the recorder that Reddit was like this thing that, like, you know, usually like, more guys would use and, you know, it was like a place where people just. It feels male dominated.

20:01 Yeah. It is, and, you know, it was like where I felt like if I said anything, I would get instantly, like, shot down by somebody. Like, probably not for some truth. You're in. Here's why, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, I think Reddit was synonymous with troll for some time to. Yeah. I mean, was his name.

20:20 Aaron Swartz was a co-founder of it. You know, and he, he was kind of a troll, but he wanted information to be free. Ended up getting put in jail because he tried to get basically bust down a paywall. All kinds. I heard about that. Yeah, right. That guy. Okay, so, Megan thee morning, I guess. Do you know about it?

20:42 I'll say it in brief. There was a there was a scientific publishing publication site. He served all the information from it and published it. So the broader idea here, Megan, is that there's there's like in academia, there's like paywalls. Yeah. That for academic research, right. That people do you pay for it, pay a lot for it. Yeah. And like hundreds of dollars of paper and the and the several for private companies that are capping are basically holding that knowledge through, through this paywall.

21:10 And so he didn't want that to happen. He's like knowledge should be free. And he took it upon himself to pirate it all. I mean, I kind of agree with him. I don't think that pirates well, he got him to jail and he killed himself because he didn't think there was any way he could get out of it.

21:23 Yeah, yeah. And so he's the Co he's one of the co-founders of Reddit. He actually created it. And Liz which is a great programing language that just people sleep on it. See. Oh that's a new term I think the Lisp has a negative connotation just to like what a Lisp is. But yeah, outside of that it's pretty good.

21:42 But yeah, but yeah. So I'm not a big Reddit user, but I do go on there sometimes to like, you know, keep up with like different gaming stuff and whatnot. But I don't know. I mean, but my friend used to use it all the time, especially when a, the whole like Black Lives Matter movement. Do these starting to become popular?

22:02 I'm not friends with some of these people anymore, but some of them on there would like go and say like not so good things. And I was just like, okay, so that's another thing about Reddit is like, I don't know, I feel like some of the people that use it, if not most probably racist. I mean, it seems like to me it's somewhere in between, like Stack Overflow and Twitter because like I go there to get information really more so than I do really participating.

22:28 Yeah. But I go there to get like, what is the popular opinion on this site? Yeah, that's what I mean. Yeah, yeah. So it has this niche thing for sure. And you know, I, I don't know why participation in social media has always has a tech ban, you know, because I'm usually trying to figure out what they think about this thing I am wanting to use in my personal hobby or wanting to use it work because participating in social media at large.

22:57 All right. I say and do things that I shouldn't eventually, if I this podcast is probably going to get me in trouble. But, you know, ultimately it's just a bad idea for me. Well, you know, this this, this podcast could be Chris Titan can or whatever your name, fucking name on you want to be. You do realize that, like, people.

23:24 They want. And then there you go. Does somebody wants to. They'll find out the Hebrew podcast Joseph beef jerky I don't know Megan. Megan to create a fake image for you and everything. Yeah. Megan we could collab on a she knows how to make a fake online profile persona. She's good at it. She uses an AI tool that makes a makes a unique showing me.

23:47 Yeah. So it's, you know, totally viable if you want to if you want to scrub your name and go anonymous. By all means. I made a few TikTok talents, with that tool to to be like, completely anonymous, but still, like, have a face connection. Yeah, because you have a face people like will trust you, like ten times more.

24:07 Yeah. And that's what they always say, you know, even on on LinkedIn and stuff like that. So when teenagers are doing that on that side of the power curve, you know that like it's already been automated, right? You know, right for years now. Right? Yeah. I feel like trickled down to where kids he access to the tool and had the time to use it the way you feel like walking on a greenways.

24:32 Like walking in the Greenway, walking into the woods because we're in shaded area, you. First thing you think he's gonna do it, he's gonna burn me and you're gonna watch. So that was it, Megan. This whole 17 years of trying to look out for you all came to the head in just one day when I decided, right. Yeah.

24:47 It comes to a head as you top line off. That's what I'm saying. The whole thing was as a plan. It's okay. We're doing it for the podcast. Yeah. You need those Logan Paul views. I know, just string me up to the tree. Yeah. Like, look, we couldn't walk into a suicide for us, so we're gonna make one.

25:03 Yeah, I get it. I mean, I could have just acted like a fake body, or you could have put a dummy up there and blurted out. Do you know this? What we're gonna do? Oh, well, you got it. Never mind. You were literally. Wait a minute. Why are you making our plans of your murder for this? I'm so confused.

25:18 How are you planning out your murder? By us? That doesn't make sense. I don't know, I'm suicidal. Oh, okay. This is like, Yeah. No. All right, all right. I swear I'm not. I'm just kidding. I promise I'm okay for the sake of the joke. Everyone, for, I hope, gets the dripping sarcasm and all of our voices, I'm pretty sure.

25:39 Yeah, some people don't. Some people need, like, tone indicator. That's another thing I wanted to bring up. He read it. Start. I think it started with Reddit. If I'm wrong, I don't know where it started from, but tone indicators when you're, has guests. Yeah. So it's like you'll say something and then at the end of like what you say, you'll put like a slash and then like Jay for like joking, like if I were to say like, you know.

26:04 Yeah, yeah, I want to kill myself right now. I'm so embarrassed. I would put slash Jay to make sure the person knows that I know or like slash SRS for slash serious or whatever. See, I don't really use them that much. That's not a bad idea. I think it's pretty clever. Yeah, because you do. That's one of the things you lose in sex.

26:22 You lose tone, you do. So you can also like emojis will help save that a little bit. True. But you know, a lot of my friends will use those, tone indicators. Not a lot. But, you know, it's they sprinkle their speech with them. Wouldn't need it. Yeah. So sometimes ask me, friends help him. Like, are you Jay or slash SRF oh yes.

26:48 I feel so stupid. Say but it's like, honestly if somebody does put like slash jay at the end and like really does like let me know that they're truly joking. Or if somebody asks a question and you don't know if they're being sarcastic or not, they'll put Slash Jen for genuine, oh, there's like a whole like what's to come on.

27:10 There's it. Yeah. It's like it's just the next thing to social media until soccer moms started using it. Now it's got to go to something else. These are dead, or it'll just mutate into something that the soccer moms don't know. If it's still useful to people. People will mutate it to the point where it's like, well, we are now the cognitive.

27:27 We have changed it. We have moved it into this new arena that the soccer mom there's not understand. It's a soccer mom. She's in slash J they make something else that I remember. There was a point in time where I was, like, using a lot of those, you know, short, you know, LLR rolling on the floor, laughing and awful.

27:47 Yeah. Using all those all the time and all, like, I just got sick of it. I stopped using them so much. Just don't use them a little bit. But I was a master at some point. Like, nice. The only thing I always speak. Yeah, I kind of knew them all at one point. The only thing I really use is W.T. F.

28:02 Obviously everybody uses that. Oh, and GLNALI use that more than I use lol because I feel like lmao is just a little bit better. It is. It is an ISO like it's probably more descriptive of what I'm doing. Yeah, yeah. A few years ago I used lmao where I talked to both of my brothers was like a three way chat and my brother called out.

28:26 He's like Sean probably is literally laughing out loud right now and watching his ass off. And it's like, yeah, absolutely, because they got hold of me. Now I happen to be a little drunk at the time. So yeah, there's very few times I talked about this before. There's very few times where I'm by myself or actually do laugh out loud, but it does happen from time to time.

28:49 Yeah. And even when it happens, I feel like I'm just like, oh, really? All right. So I'm by myself and I laugh out loud because something really, literally does make me laugh out loud. I kind of have this little, like, feeling in the back of my head, like I'm a psycho at the moment. Like, really? See, the same thing happens.

29:03 Like, it's like there's something off because I'm laughing when no one else around, but there's nobody else around it. True. No, no, it's it's just my hangup. It's not real. Like there's nothing wrong. It's probably something wrong with you. But it might be because I'm saying thing happens to me. I was sitting on my couch under my mom's house, and I was watching some, and it was just me.

29:24 And I had my two cats next to me, so I wasn't alone. But there was like, person.

29:31 Puppy, how you doing? And, some TikTok or YouTube video. Something made me just start bust me out laughing. I was almost crying and that never happened. And I remember I just sat there. Well, first of all, me laughing instantly scared my cats away because they didn't something love her. Wow. Because I was the only person there and I like they know that.

29:54 Like when I'm alone, I'm not going to make noise because. Right. There's nobody, right? So when I did, they thought I was like injured. So their responses to running, they're like, oh my God, something's happened to her. Go.

30:07 So, the same exact thing will happen to me when I'm sitting there, but then I don't like, say that I'm psychotic. I'm just like, wow, I'm laughing at something. That's a good video. Let me send it to all of my friends. And they laugh out loud, too. Yes. You want to broadcast the hilarity? I do, yeah. And I'll make sure I include in the thing.

30:26 I just scared my Cathy because this was so fucking funny. My new form of affection between like, spouses or boyfriend and girlfriend or two, two close friends each other's me, send each other memes and TikToks. Oh well, Harper said it is. Yes, it is reference. And I, if you look at our conversations, mean me. It's a new form of endearment.

30:44 It is. So it's it shows you're thinking about somebody or you're engaging even your life. People make love means for you to send to. You know, why not? All right, that makes sense. It's I guess that's the new mixtape I'm sending. You especially know, maybe this new. That's all we know. We know that. That's for we know no one listens to mixtapes.

31:07 That's why we're mentioning the mixtape King. Like, I'll share my Spotify. You look so somebody I'd be like, you see this? It has really this song on it. Go listen to it. Yeah. You're you're sending it just to be endearing. Yeah, exactly. Hi. How are you doing? Listen to that. And I'm like, okay, but then they'll send me their books and then be like, oh my God, me listen.

31:32 And I'll be like, sure. And I actually will listen to a good friend. But I know that my friends don't. I know that they don't. So it should be a tracker when you send the playlist, if they actually listen to it or not. Well, you want to know how I trap them. I just put them in my car and then I play the music so that they're forced to hear it.

31:48 I mean, that's what we all used to do. Yeah. You know, it'd be like you're in close proximity to me. You are going to be subjected to this news obscure thing that I found. Yeah, literally, because I like this. I want to share it with you. Shut up and listen to it right now. So the classic one that comes to mind for me is my friend Chris back in the day.

32:06 Maybe listen to this Canadian band, Sloan. I still hate them to this day. So let me describe this process from back in the day. Right. You have a tape deck, you have a boom box that has two tape decks. Right. And you press play on this one and record on this one. And whatever's playing on this one on the next tape.

32:23 Right. You could also do the same thing with a TT burner when that came out. Yeah. But that one x CD burners was the same as the tape. You had to listen to the whole CD. Yep. Yeah. In order to get it to go, you also right down on the thing what songs were in it. Yeah, yeah. The the jacket or the, the cassette cover itself.

32:39 Right. The cassette box would actually have a paper insert that you can pull out and write in small print, the different songs that were on the tape czar song, baby. Yeah, exactly. Kind of. And there was no like skipping to the track. You had to, like literally forward, fast forward to tape. Sony came out something called a t s that what you skip to the to the next track because there was always a tiny little amount of space.

33:04 Right. So so it was hacked. It would know that to stop. Well yeah. And so it would stop their next track, stop their next track. Now all we have to do is just press the forward button on Spotify. Yep. Right. And before that they had, this eight track concept, which was a thick magnetic strip. And what it was is all the tracks were parallel to each other.

33:23 All the different songs were parallel. And so if you're like 30s into one of the songs, you could slip the track and go to this 30s into the next song, like, but you were, you were stuck at any time, whatever time was. Yeah. And unless you rewound or fast forwarded the cassette. Yeah. Because everything was there were eight tracks on that strip.

33:44 Oh, I know myself. And if I was alive at that time, I would have a lot of mixtapes. Oh, yeah. So what's great about all this ideas are that, they don't have the same fidelity and they can't have the same fidelity as a record because, like what? Digital music. You just have different. Basically you have the waveform going, going across as over time.

34:07 Right? And what you do is you have to have a number to show where it is in that waveform. So, so, so really at every time interval it's like go to here and then go to here and go to here. And it's not a smooth curve. It's but it's so it happens so frequently. What's that. No I thought you should want to die.

34:25 And I'm like, we're here again Daniel. I so anyway, like, it's just happened so fast your ear can't hear the difference, right. Because happening so quickly. But it's still broken into chunks. Right. The waveform is like chunks, but a record is literally like, is the waveform the groove of the record has within it the actual waveform and the needle right down.

34:46 The concept of analog, which is continuous variation. Yep. Versus digital, which is an absolute discrete value if one value at any time, whereas analog has this infinite variance. Right. And so is like the classic vinyl record has a greater fidelity than any of the music coming through MP3 today. Now you can get such high resolution MP3 that that it actually still sounds superior because of the mechanical reproduction of the grooves, and the record is less quality than than this.

35:19 Like hyper digital versions, the people that are audio files that have all of this really sophisticated equipment stuff. And then there's like ways to to put Bézier curves and blend out the actual nuances in the digital like abstraction. Right. So there's like enhancements that can make it actually better when the final rendering then is actually better than the old analog know.

35:40 If you remember this, a years ago I shared something with you. There was a project somebody had made, the gramophone, and it was basically take high resolution pictures of a record, and then they would use this digital Pearl program to read the grooves and play it. That's awesome. I'm not trying to change the topic at all, but you can taste it.

36:02 My point of it, yeah, well, this is like completely out of the blue, but my brain really, like, stuck to this word because you said it like twice. The word chunk sounds like chunk. Like if I'm looking at something and I'll think about it, it's not only a word, it's an automobile. Literally. Like if I'm rookie that jump looking at something and it's like somebody says, oh yeah, that's something.

36:27 I'm like, yeah, you know what? It is like, there's no other words. And I think that it's so fun, the very embodiment of its definition. Exactly. It's a great word for like a short, stubby, fat boxer dog that like a perfect name name is Ted Short. All that kid from me. I mean, is there any other name he could have?

36:47 He was. When he's eating ice cream in the freezer, that's chunk. It is chunk. It is the best name ever. Yeah. Sorry. You said it. You said the word twice. You're right. Chunk is a great word, right? It's it's wonderful. Every time I hear it, I think a I don't I don't know if you guys know about this, but in Minecraft a chunk is like a 16 by 16 block.

37:09 And it's how they measure like things like rendering distance and things in the game. Okay. And so like in the loading screen, it'll say like loading chunks. This, it's loading the surrounding. Yeah. Yeah. And literally that's how you can perfectly describe them because it's like just chunks of the land. Right. There's no in Digital World. There's like it by chomp chomp.

37:30 Yep. Yeah. Bite chomp nibble. Yep. Nibble. Oh my god that's so cute I love it I love it. And nibble is a half a bite. Oh you. This makes sense. Next door. So it's all Jeff fat hungry programmer creating this crap. You have a okay. You can have different amounts of bits to make a byte, but typically you're going to have eight bits.

37:56 Make a byte.

37:59 And two nibbles make a byte. Why is what's that one? John Roy, you just said eight bits reminded me of it. Can you guys heard of the eight bit like. Yeah. Well, if I eat bit stuff. Yeah yeah yeah. Okay. So this is also something that we both came up during the, you know, I guess the canonical, the example of it at its height.

38:21 Well Ebit music popularity was a jump pilgrim versus the world. I was Scott Pilgrim chicken movie. And there was this trend for a long time to, to have like these low fidelity eight bit Midi files, MIT files that would just play directly to the sound card. They would just send the instructions of what tone to play to the sound card.

38:40 And this was this. The popularity and usage of that was when we worked with what you could do is you can get an actual like full song, the melody of it, you're here. The idea of elevator music, that's what they used to play in elevators. That's melody. This means it. Yes. Yeah. Sorry. Now, when I hear elevator music, we just listened to Rap God.

38:59 And that's in one of the lyrics. Eminem. Sorry. It's no, no in my brain. No, no. I am also familiar with Rap God, the editor girl who could, do the whole damn song. Really? Yeah. UPS to her. I thought so too. I was like, just have to. Do you have times. And, I mean, it's still hard to keep up with even if you do it enough time.

39:22 Sure. Fair enough. There's a reason it's called rap got. Yeah. It's hard. I'll do it one day on the podcast for you. You know it. Please. I would love that. I want to hear your pyroclastic flow. I can do it. I will buy a shirt. I will buy a mug. I will buy all of your merchandise. If you can sing Rap God on the podcast.

39:43 Oh he will. It's probably going to happen like next week now. Yeah. Good. Do you mean you buy one of every item that I have for say yes. Yeah, I say one of every variant of every item. That's that's four things. Oh, no, no, she said every variant of every item. That's. Yeah. That's that comes in green, blue, purple.

40:01 Burgundy I don't know, buy it and all the sizes okay. Oh that's not recording. That's like a contract. You know, here's money. Yeah, I'm j j. You got this style. Now there is a or you. I am not sorry. Not him. F are not French, but for real. But. Oh, that's another thing IO1 thing I hate. Okay, this is the little a little thing that I don't scream.

40:32 What did I don't like is when people don't know the difference between your and like your like oh yeah, I will be texting so many people and they'll get to the point where they're. So is doing a grammar Nazi still existed with sexy I am so young one about you going ahead and let me know and I'm happy about it.

40:49 Oh, that's the ultimate. When you're arguing with someone online about something and you make a grammar mistake and they pounce on your grammar mistake to to nullify your argument and, you know, listen to time. It's funny, especially if you're in a public setting, like if you're in a chat room like other people in it and they're just observing this happening, and then see, whenever I'm watching two people fight online and one of them correct the other one's grammar, I can't help but laugh.

41:11 It's funny. You just know it's the sending and breaking down set point or it never had a chance, never had a chance to get in with what else? Like 90% of polarized arguments. I mean, you can probably think of like a bazillion ways to respond to somebody who just, like, corrects your grammar like that. But it's like, yeah, it happens.

41:33 In my opinion, it's just not worth it. It's just I just say, don't be don't focus on, you know, it's the, we're focusing on semantics. Nothing tax. You know, I would completely flip that on his head. I would just say the reason that you're going after the grammar is because, you know, your arguments. Yeah. Your arguments.

41:52 Article just proven you're done. Son. That dog was the target dog. Yeah. There. You know, it's like the one. It's like a PD from a little rascal. Yeah. Cool. You're just under two generational perspectives on that dog. Yeah, it poor thing. The birth of our. How are you doing? Good morning. Thank you.

42:20 I love it I used to there used to be a statue in targets of the target dog. And take a photo with it. What? Yes, but they don't have it anymore. Damn it! I used to do that all the time. I used to go. I would hug it. I would hug this thing. I loved it. So I, you know, from time to time, I, I think about, like, I was telling Sean about this from time to time, I think about, like, marketing ideas because I don't know why.

42:43 My brain just goes there. I'm here. And I actually got some algorithm online offering me jobs in that in that field. Saying like, you know, we think you'd be a good and a whole bunch of them, right? Right. And my resume doesn't say anything about. Well, that at all extrapolated it from all these data points that it has access to that aren't transparent.

43:03 Yeah. I would like to know that algorithm because that's a pretty interesting because it's not a career that really seriously considered. But it was it would be one that I would like to be good at it to dabble in. Right. I think I'd be good at guerrilla marketing. Yeah. So I have like, you know, not an actual guerrilla.

43:22 You know what? I'm I'm, I'm talking about guerrilla marketing. Like the the kind of marketing where you're not quite sure it's marketing or stuff that hits you over the head in the environment. But I have a marketing plan that I want to pitch to Walmart that would be freaking crazy awesome. And what did their logo looks like? An asshole.

43:42 What? That wasn't the center thrust, because that's not how I roll anyway, so that kind of works out. You're not seeing assholes everywhere I'm looking. I know, I know, I'm so pounded by assholes. So. So how many assholes do we have aboard this thing anyway? Yo. Yeah, yeah. Spaceballs. Philip. Asshole. And this asshole keep firing. Asshole. Yeah, exactly.

44:08 That's what I was trying to reference to bring in, you know, but. And then his helmet clocks down. Move it. So stupid. Yeah. It's beautiful. We love it. Love it. This is the same combination on my luggage. Yeah. One, two, three has that for five. It's like passwords. Passwords. Of course. Yep. You know creative. You got to add one to it.

44:33 Password one. Honestly though, something like that is just so dumb. It would it could work like for me. What do you mean it does work? There's plenty of people that have on a combination lock that have those little rolling wheels. So the work only would have 1234499876 all red team that, you know, they they attack us. Right. They use one of our, one of three login attempts we have every day to go through a list of common passwords to see if anyone has them.

45:05 Wow. I like those websites that tell you like if your password is like two week or two strong. And so what? What can you be too strong? So I wrote down strong as one of my password options. And it said two week. And then I wrote week and it said two strong.

45:25 They're using the reverse algorithm on that one. It was just so stupid. But I mean, it could work. Or if somebody's password making it like forgot password is their password, right? Right. I would love to have Easter eggs in there. Like you sign up for something Microsoft. You say Bill gates and it comes back with some crazy thing like, you know, no.

45:43 That's inappropriate. Oh, no. What I think they should do at that point or something like you, you saying that they should try to ply you with reproduce. You say Prague, the date, they give you a free windows license and they were signed up. Now for all their newsletters. Yeah, without opting out. Oh, no. Like, we will put you in the midst of our propaganda machine.

46:01 You will be converted. We will reprogram you. Yeah. Like though gates is part of your your, password. And you get access all of a sudden to, like, 50,000 in software and you become a Microsoft buff. I know you're an MVP next week. Yeah that's MVP. I love it. Speaking of the whole newsletter thing, that's like the worst thing you can do for somebody is to get their email and sign them up for things, just to get them the news.

46:24 Quora. Oh my God, did not many people have signed up for thousands of porn sites? No, but what I'm saying is, like. So I accidentally made the mistake of I want to hear this. This is like revenge, apparently. Hell yeah. So I don't use this email anymore. It was like a throwaway email. Anyway, I signed up for, Quora.

46:42 Oh, I checked it out. We didn't go that way. I told you that. Well, there's a runner coming out. Oh, no. But I look like she'd stop there and then turns around. Oh, thanks to both sides she had gone through. Yeah, yeah, but you can. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. Anyhow, so, like, daily I was getting like 5 or 6 emails.

47:02 So imagine if you went to all of those pesky websites or somebody that you really didn't like. And if you wanted to get into this game like your neighbor, like whose dog keeps pooping on your lawn and he doesn't pick it up, just take his email if he can find it. And then so they're source intelligence sources.

47:22 There's open source intelligence. There's ways to really dive in and find connections that people have left out there. Yeah. So we can get his email. We got his email and definitely, definitely sign him up for the porn sites and all those other things. And make sure that if he has a wife, that she knows, if he's got a wife, he signed him up for all the cheating sites and all of.

47:43 Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. Medicine, whatever that is. Tinder match farmers only. No, not tinder grinder grinders. A man with a grinder. Yeah. Oh, that's even worse. Not because he's like a subway sandwich official, though. Right now, if you're fighting for grind, you might as well go ahead and put, you know, Trump up that profile fit. You enter your neighbor, you might give us some of the places he's been recently.

48:12 Like he took a trip to England. Well, then we can go ahead and put some things on this profile about how he blows the suck and that he he he he had a great time with Big Ben. Yeah, yeah. Big Ben, you know, let's see who else could be throwing there. You know, in a what's a British name?

48:36 His two new best buddies over there are fish, and chip is sure I was willing to go with British. So he had a great time with Oswald the well, The well hung. Yeah. One word. William. But from. Those are wrong. Those are solely. Those are some. So I knew this. I met so many Richards when I was over there.

48:58 It was amazing. Yeah. Yes. I was just a rounded by a veritable forest of bridges. There are riches coming. Richard's coming at me from every angle.

49:10 Oh, I no longer want to discuss this. Why? We just. We just keep warming up. No, we just we just delete your your actual evil plans. Because now it's like, you see how dark and evil it can get, how quick and dark and evil it can get. And you know, I don't want to do it. Yeah, yeah. Your empathy for humanity is kicked in.

49:29 Yeah. I have definitely convinced people to avoid a course of action by taking it away from far. Absolutely. Because we're going to give this guy monkeypox while we're at it. Oh, yeah. Yeah, he's going to get monkeypox from reading his mail that you plant in his mailbox. That's right. God, no. Like he's not really going to get monkeypox, but his wife is going to believe he contracted it from Big Ben.

49:50 I mean, maybe we should give him a box. We do. Hayes's dog. That was a monkeypox. Like, can make your. Okay. I don't know if this is true or not because I. I don't believe everything I see, but I'm just saying this. This person is good. Take it with a grain of salt. But I'm going to believe it until I have a reason not to.

50:10 But apparently some of the people that have gotten monkey pox actually like their faces started to blister and like, get this weird, like, what a minute, pop. Yeah, literally, literally get pox. Yeah. But they were like, oh, it was awful. Have any of you ever like, so what you're describing is the very definition of the insult of pox upon you.

50:33 Yeah. You know, I'm in those pox marks. The where where it looks like somebody has scars on their face. That's, you know, I get you can talk from those little now you're mean immunized for. No. But like, I think I got it I didn't I get it silver brother got a real bad case. But he even had it.

50:52 Never had it. You had all the vaccines against this. You never got chicken parts, I swear. Somebody told me. I did see if. If mom told you he got it, then he. Then you have like such a mild thing. That was some red marks. And she associated that with chickenpox. But you never have, like full on sugar box.

51:08 Oh, you're like itching and screaming and writhing in pain. Yeah. Let's hope it's like a bath of calamine. Yep. Yeah. And then that whole basket backs rue the vaccine thing, and it's just like I am sick. So they have a back seat against the box now. No. Like, yeah that's probably the next going to be the next urgent pandemic crisis that we all get vaccinated against.

51:31 And well I mean have you seen those lesions and pox? I'm not a fan. Not yet. No. Know I'm also not a fan of like this not being a public private enterprise at being fully private enterprise. I'm a little bit against that at this point. Same that these companies are just getting the same rich off of, you know, this crisis and that everyone and a portion of that money wasn't allocated to making sure it doesn't happen again.

51:56 There. They want me to tell you, you guys are making unfettered profits, but 30% of those unfettered profits need to go to, you know, research and prevention. Exactly. And that might include a campaign, a really strong global campaign about what we do with animals as we talked about that money. But now, because these this is a zoo and not a Kazys, this is this is one that's crossed, these species buried.

52:23 It keeps happening because because we're constantly interfacing with animals. Everything's more crowded in a more agriculture is expanding. And the corporate version of corporate animal agriculture is expanding. And that's the number one vector for all the shit. When you have animals on top of each other, you have 24 over seven. That's it. You've got because you've got a great breeding ground for new nutation, because you have such a large collection of these animals.

52:53 It's the same thing with how black like evolved and spread exactly. When you have people intermixing with animals in tight spaces. And then, it's even compounded because we've all heard about this antibiotic resistant illnesses, the mercies and these various, you know, massively antibiotic resistant strains. Strains. Oh, I read an article about the. Yeah. No it's fine. So inside the animal agriculture, they're just pumping the antibiotics like nonstop.

53:24 Right. And so what you're doing is you're creating a flood of antibiotic resistant vectors for, for the, for this zoonotic background, something that apparently has been used for a long time in, say, Russia and that side of the world. All right, we all know about the concept of a bacteriophage that basically eats bacteria. Yeah, literally.

53:47 Well, they're very specific and what they like to eat. Yeah. So they had their favorite meals. Well, they've been using cocktails of bacteria failures to combat antibiotic resistance. Right. Right. In, in Russia for 20, 30 years. And they have these bacteriophage cocktails. We're just now starting to do it in the West. Yeah. But see what it is is it's just a global arms race against nature.

54:14 And we've been here we're using nature's most effective tool. Right. And they'll they'll be a Swiss army knife of tools that'll be used as this whole thing accelerates. Right. You know, and technology, biology and technology understanding is wonderful on these things. And we've been able to mostly stay ahead of it. But a slightest little blip that gets off, that goes off grid and gets out of that system is a new pandemic.

54:37 And that's definitely what we have with coronavirus and monkey and now monkeypox. And now it's going to just be ad ad because what we're doing is we're increasing the access of the, the microbiome. Right? We're giving the microbiome the perfect playground. And then in meddling with it, we're creating an arms race within it, which is going to just intensify it to so much so that these future bugs will leak out and they'll be highly contagious, just like coronavirus.

55:03 Right. And they're going to have a million, 2 million, 10 million, 100 million footprint each time. One of the banner things for this too was heard fluke H1n1. Yep. And there ended up being a nearly endless variance of those. Yeah. And if you want to look at just pure body count right. We're going to we're going to start hitting as these like blips just keep in this cycle.

55:24 It just keeps happening this repetitive cycle. We're going to start to see counts that make the bubonic plague in terms of numbers, not percentage of people, but in terms of numbers. Look look like nothing. Because we we're going to get into this billion, nearly billion people on the earth. There's a lot of people that you get in. That's what I'm saying.

55:39 We're going to have a billion infection in one day. We're going to have the billion dead infection one day. You know that's true. And that could mean that's right. And that could come from a lab. No problem. And what I'm going to say, though, most likely not going to come from a lab, most likely where it's going to come from.

55:58 Is this doing not a convection vector that we're just enabling? Unless you had some right little scientists, their hands dirty maliciously. Oh, and you think that that's not you know, it only takes one, right? It only takes one. Yeah, yeah. And you know, it does only take one malicious person in a lab. But these labs, there are all of these controls surrounding them.

56:22 They will. That's what we're told, things. That's what we're told. Well, I know that that there are these controls. Yeah. Maybe in the United States. Okay. In the United States. But in the United States. And there are several other countries that described the same standard. Yeah. Until they outsource it to save money and it's in some place with lack standards.

56:41 And, you know, you have the next pandemic. And this can just happen over and over and over without without limit. But, you know, this is just speculation. And we like to think, for the most part, that people are handling that serious of a thing will be serious with it. And for the most part, that's what's happened. Right? And that's the beauty of being able to to count on compassion and, ethics amongst humans.

57:07 But don't forget, all this stuff is moving into the domain of AI and into the domain of automation. Everything. Everything under the sun. And what we take for granted in humanity is we take for granted all the time our ethics and our compassion and our humanity. And it's not it's not a huge automatically bet. That's what I'm saying.

57:23 There's no chance of rolling the dice and the AI being compassionate because there is no compassion. That's right. And so when you're talking about a business function, the narcissism is a preferred tool, a tool that isn't just agnostic but is by nature narcissistic, right? A by nature narcissistic tool is better for business than a than a than a human, than a human, than a person.

57:49 The stick to stab my foot. I'm all right.

57:53 So so for sure, 100% right. If you're just a business making a selection of technology, if you will. Yeah, right. Are you going to select a technology that off the shelf is is human like and has empathy and compassion for humanity built into it? Are you going to pick the tool that's going to maximize the profit? I'm gonna because I feel like, no, you would because but you're not in the.

58:15 That's maybe one of the reasons why you're not in one of those positions to make those guys. Oh, it's 100% y. But also I think it's been proven that one right now, at least the human part of the equation is your is one of your biggest moneymakers. So if you are compassionate, you treat your employees well. Your employees will make you more money, especially if there's a customer facing component to your visit.

58:40 And Siri like, well, okay, good guy who runs Raising Cane's, Chicken Place. Subscribe to my theory. You can make more. You can find examples for sure. He bought 50,000 lottery tickets for the $810 million drawing yesterday, one for each one of his employees. Wow. Like a straight back to our gambling discussion. But he was. It was an altruistic thing in that, hey, maybe one of my employees will rise up out of this and get a get a million bucks or whatever.

59:13 That's kind of saying something bad about your. Nevermind, nevermind. It is. It is saying it's in a way, it's like I'm teasing you with hope, right? Right. It's like, so I'll teach you with hope to keep you in play here. You couldn't say that it's dangling the carrot. But you could all say, also say I care about your welfare.

59:31 I care about you. Nice, nice, nice I love that. But I'm. I'm an actual carrot. Like, I won't beat you with this stick. I'll give you this carrot. You know what? I'm not trying to break these backs. Minecraft. But fun fact in the game, you can ride on a pig and you literally put a you get a fishing rod, and then on the end you put a carrot and you're riding the pig.

59:54 The pig chases the carrot, right? That's that's the owl. Plastic cartoon propulsion. Yes. Yeah. It's fantastic. So sorry you said carrot. No no, no. Dang. That's what we're here for. If you're an association, okay? If you're in the middle of the ocean and. And you're under and your sail is, is not catching any wind because it completely winless and you have a can of beans, you're, you're you're you're you're fine, you're fine.

1:00:19 You're saved because.

1:00:23 Oh, I'm so stupid. I had to okay, I didn't get that until you made that sound. You fart into your own sail. Yeah, I come to see a Big Ben one for this time. I thought clearing it out for him. Anyway, do you just make it really gross in my mental image? He's not only farting, but he's, getting ready to come for big men.

1:00:46 Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I'll take I'll take the brown seal and make it white again once they get to England. Yeah. I mean, he's gonna have something to do on the way anyway. So this game. So this fucked up gambling. So. Sorry. So in North Carolina, you can buy a lottery ticket. And it's an education. North Carolina education lottery.

1:01:07 Yeah. You know. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. And, yeah, I, I know that 100% of all the proceeds of that goes to never mind right now they've done is proportionately reduce the education budget for whatever happens to spill off the, the lottery lottery. Right. And so what we're saying here is that okay, for a, for what seems like a noble purpose, we'll, we'll open up this vice, you know, to this certain degree.

1:01:34 Right? Yeah. And we'll I'm scratch off tickets in every fucking gas station, and we'll have this stuff all over the place, and we'll permeate the whole entire North Carolina, you know, the whole the whole state with this gambling enterprise, whereas. But the state is in control of the only legal gamble. That's right. And then I say that that should be beyond unconstitutional.

1:01:54 The state should not be able to involve themselves in a business and then make that business illegal for everybody else. It's definitely unconscionable. No, it's a moral failing right there. Big time. Yeah. That's more like that's where more gets into very fast really quickly on. Well on in world territory. It just makes some hypocrite. Exactly. It's like the stupidity and unnecessary restriction of their own law speaking up recently when they did the thing on the whole interracial marriage and they were voting on it, they showed the people who voted against, interracial marriage being legal.

1:02:28 And like a majority of them, their spouse was of a different race than them. Right? Isn't that crazy? And that's, what I was mentioning this the other day in this podcast, Whoopi Goldberg was spotlighting this and saying, you know, all right, class, Thomas, one of the fame judges behind this of returning versus Wade. Right. His wife's white.

1:02:50 He's like, you better hope they don't come for you. Right. And basically saying interracial marriage or even repealing the amendment that gave black people rights. So you leave those off the table, right. But then everything else and put it on the table. Yeah. But rights for other people, we can we can definitely tell us that's some bullshit. Yeah.

1:03:15 It seems like a, a progressive society would be ever increasing the expanding rights. Not not to try. And that that thereby really talks about what elements of our society are in control, not the more progressive, more open elements. What? We have ten minutes. Let's busted open the topic then of should. Does the state have some responsibility in creating laws which, demand a certain expectation as far as moral behavior, is the government in the business of making laws that are related to morality?

1:03:45 I would love to say no, but one can hardly separate the judiciary from the morality of the time. Sure. So why can't you walk around with your would you would you're tweaking twigs and berries out, right? One it would be gross and scare people. Well, not right. Not so. Everybody was doing her. Yeah. You know somebody was doing it.

1:04:06 A lot of African prides was a woman. District was like, yeah, you know what, you're up. But but he's talking about, you know, African Africa as well. And I mean, I used to say, yes. Which position?

1:04:22 Does he know here? I'm told no, no no, no. It's perfect. Just me. No, no. You're like, oh, I know, I'll just speak disparagingly on purpose. And b slash JBI call those things National Geographic titties. Yeah. Right. There you go. Yeah. Because literally you go to the library and open up the National Geographic and see boobs. Sure. Absolutely.

1:04:47 What particular ethnicity? Oh my God, I still am. And more and more. Why don't you get wet? Because. What's up? Oh, it's okay. I need to be cooled off. I'll bring my soap next time. Yeah.

1:05:09 Nelson. Yeah. I don't like so. So seriously. I hate this hill. This hill makes me angry. Yeah, it's like it's the only time you can hear true gasping on our podcast. Oh, well. Maybe not. I mean, I'm walking off.

1:05:25 So so so we have ten minutes of just panting credit podcast. Is this this is an asthma podcast. You know what? You probably have more listeners. We probably would. It's popular now right. So it is no fancy anybody who likes it. Oh total offense to anyone who likes it. Well I don't like the eating ASMR. What is that?

1:05:51 I'm sure it's just like a close up to someone just chomping or slurping. It is always like weird food. It's never regular food. Yes. It's like. I mean, not braces. Running, running plastic chopsticks across your braces. Well, she pulled out a nail file and started running the ridges and her teeth. You know, I had to shut that off.

1:06:11 Yeah. You lying? Not lying. Oh, my God, for the sound. What? She wasn't, like, literally filing it down to your just like. No, because I had to get my teeth cycles at the dentist and it hurt so bad. It was the worst pain I felt in my mouth. Literally. Emily. Board on teeth. Yeah. That's awful. So hearing that somebody was a recovering guy, she had plastic chopsticks, acrylic or plastic chopsticks, and she was running the tip of her.

1:06:41 Yeah, across the brightness. I used to do that just to make jokes with you, but it would be like, maybe like, do you get annoying? And I'm like, I don't know, you told me. And then I went and I'd make those sounds. Let me make the most annoying sound my braces can make. We make a bad ASMR meme channel.

1:06:59 Oh, I'll cut my braces back. It's all just bad sounds. Sorry. Yeah. So some some people like an entire an entire episode of farts in a jar. What are you talking about? How is that you're talking about? She said. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Okay. There you go. There you go. In a jar and then sell it. Yep. There you go.

1:07:22 Oh, and it was. That's who I think British people are because people in Reddit, Brian, are stuff. Oh, that's not gross. That's the baseline profile of Reddit people as far buyers. I mean, I wouldn't doubt it. Myers there's probably a Venn diagram. I will get a lot of hate for saying that about Reddit people, but I mean, it's okay.

1:07:39 Look, we're not big enough to really have a lot of hate right now. What is what what? Camel toe carpet cleaning. Yeah, well, let it. Not that it says camel toe carpet cleaning and has cheetah print front seats. As we continue to accumulate listeners and we end up being big someday, then. Then the hate will just accumulate off our past episodes and we'll just laugh.

1:07:58 Wait, what? No, I mean, we've intermixed enough disclaimers and we would do that intro that goes on every cast we'll just put. We need to borrow or appropriate or whatever you want to call it. South Park claimer. Yeah. Or just put an asterisk on everything. Or you can put our podcast is slash J and slash SRS. We put a we put an asterisk in the dagger after every, every sentence in the transcript.

1:08:24 And at the bottom the star is did just JK. Right. And the dagger is no not SRS not deadly deadly. There you go burble. And that way the Reddit users get mad at you because you're using their their nomenclature there. If we ended up with a subreddit of hate just for our podcast, you know, popular there could be wonderful.

1:08:50 Let's start this up. Let's take a page out of the Kardashian playbook. Yeah, seriously. And so I. Why? They should be taking Twitter. Not seriously through true Twitter machine needs to be on blows. I'm just saying I hope that somebody can go and shut Twitter's like, servers down or something. Yes, but vigilante tech, the technocrats. Well, I'm just saying, if it happened, I will take credit for it.

1:09:18 Even if I didn't do it because I just said it. You heard it here about the shutdown Twitter server.

1:09:27 Folks. What? I mean, I don't think it's going to cause we have on the same recording her not knowing what a chomp and a and then nibble is. Yeah, chomp nibble by some beta science background is a little weird. You got. Oh. Oh, okay. Okay. We've been in. That's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, see, I like Twitter, so I'm not going to participate.

1:09:48 I also enjoy Twitter. My father has a great Twitter account that I think is hilarious. Yeah. There's the cover. We need to shut him down. Let's go.

1:09:57 That's all the cover we need. This reminds me of this video I saw. It was a stupid.

1:10:06 Is this stupid, thing that, like, these kids made for a school project, and it became a viral video. He was from, like, oh, God, it looks like 20 years ago, honestly. And it was illegally downloading music. It is for 20 years. And now I can hear I can literally. Yeah, exactly. Copy a link for a video on YouTube and then put it into some website, click download and I have the file.

1:10:35 That cat is so cute. What's up dude. We've seen that got a million times and have an MP3 other thing now, but every time I do it, I think of the video and you can't even hear what they're saying. You hear the guy who's pretending to be the FBI breaking the door open, and he has a stapler in his hands as a gun.

1:10:55 Even the simplest society, you see have a real gun. They'll be the digital. The digital standards have completely. I think that's part of the lampooning. They're making fun of him. Music has been completely it may have always been this way, but now it's been fully deconstructed. It just gets Uma product because the fidelity of music these days, when you when you put in earbuds combined with their compression on MP3's, combined with etc., you're not even getting anything close to what that song is, right?

1:11:21 In fact, the the record labels now make the sound quality specifically for being consumed over your downsample it what they call it. Yeah, they make it so that it's basically by design Lo-Fi so that it sounds up on the way over. Over. Yeah. So it's not the way over the earbuds or else because real music doesn't work anymore under that, you know, like you're not going to hear the full range of instruments over iPods.

1:11:45 No. Or AirPods or they're called. Right. Right. Because, I mean, Apple has lowered our overall standards by being so popular. I've always laughed at people that like, I love music in my life and they have in earbuds, you know, it's like, sorry, the music is not your life. You know nothing about music. Yeah. It's like you've never experienced a full soundscape.

1:12:06 Part of The artist. No. And back in the 60s and 70s and early 80s, we had sound systems in our homes that were like freaking banging dudes. Yeah, like the true audio file existed where they would be diagraming out their home and, you know, trying to create making homemade baffles for certain frequencies. There's the speakers were like literally, literally furniture elements in the, in the house.

1:12:28 Yes. And they, you know, it was just like your TV too. You've spent a lot of money and time on it. It was in a cabinet. Yeah. Yeah. It was like six years. Yeah. And now that, now all that's been reduced to earbuds. Oh, that's just crap. At least the TVs have gone. I'm stomping my feet. Old school.

1:12:44 You know, I'm showing my age. We're shaking. Arcane to the sky. Yep. Damn. You know, school people here all the time is like a second game I kicked off and stuff like that. The older generation should have said, okay, Boomer should have their. I'm not that kind of person. Thank you. Because we had fucking bass.

1:13:06 Real bass. Real motherfucking damn right boomers. That's right. But we all have tonight. Us. Not now. Y'all are just tweeters. Oh that's good, that's good. Anyway, you were saying you shut up. I'm going to hang myself. Right? Sorry about the intellectual wanker. We had to buff up each other. You guys there? Go ahead. Please don't stop. Continue. This whole podcast is just about self validating generally.

1:13:34 Yeah. So let's let Megan have for platform. You have the final word to say is that I think it's really funny that like older generations are constantly not necessarily you guys, but like if like I don't I don't know, this is constantly like, you know, here's something that the newer generation just wouldn't understand. And I'm like, oh yeah, sure, let's show your age.

1:13:56 Come on, come on. Yeah. Like, oh, I know what a DVD player is. I used to have one. Right. So and they're sitting there like, no, this CD had little tiny bits on it, you know, and they're like, they're like, oh, we were in a museum and there was a rotary phone in it, and they're like, do you know how to use this?

1:14:15 And I'm like, yes, yes. And then I mentioned a new Nokia the other day. And then I think I don't remember who it was. It was some older like one of my mom's friends and they were like, how do you know what a Nokia is? And I'm like, it's permeated popular culture. It's like, it's funny if I make jokes about.

1:14:34 Yeah, the the the the candy bar style phone, you know, everybody's like, they really take a thing off of the a rotary phone. I could take a little tiny piece off of it and you'd have no idea how to use. Shut up. Well, because I don't. Oh my God, how do I know how to use something that nobody uses has, once you know, zero through nine finger holes, right.

1:14:53 Has a has a number with a finger hole in each one. And then there's this little curve stop at the bottom. So when you take the number and you go, how did I mention how many pulses. It counts the pulses because each number has a little magnetic poles. Yeah. So when you hit minus. Yeah. You know and then registers a nine.

1:15:11 But if you take out that little tiny thing at the bottom that, that stop, a young person would just have no idea, like not know what to do, not be able to figure out what a older person would be able to say, oh yeah, the stops missing and would. Oh, I know my age. Sunny afternoon. Yeah, exactly. Yeah.

1:15:26 I mean, you don't, you young snapper, or you just crank it up and pick it up and hit the receiver three times and say, hey, Janet, down at the. Yeah. The switchboard. It's like we're connecting it to the Nelson family. Yeah. You're like Janet, is there anybody else on the party line? Yeah. You know, because you. Seriously, that's something new.

1:15:41 One set up. No, there was one. Never mind. It was. A few people do it. It was like everybody in the neighborhood would have one phone line connection. I think you told me about that. And you'd pick up, you'd see if anybody was using it. And then you go, yeah. And for some reason around this whole country and probably talk about this next time we have podcasts.

1:16:02 But around the whole country, the plain old telephone system is still in place as, as if. Yep. The yep, pots plain old phone system, which are the large bundles of copper wires, are always the lower hanging ones. And all these poles, and they still exist everywhere. And so the question is, why do they still exist? And who's paying for that infrastructure?

1:16:18 And is it because in case of an emergency, we have a fallback? Is that why that really is I don't know. That's part B, it's a question and the leading question for our next podcast. Right. And there I've used this to great effect. There's a round depending on where you're at and how far you are from the D slam.

1:16:35 There's around 30V coming off a phone line. So I've used that to power stuff all the time. You know what? Interesting. And it's free power. Interesting. It's just there. Yeah, yeah. It's a really interesting. Why all the infrastructure? Someone has to be gaining it, right. It creates. Anyway, that's it for today. Or a ghost Avengers thing. Yeah.
