Speaker 1: you was just in a cartoon all of a sudden.
Speaker 1: You know, my style, I hunt is for l Williams
Speaker 1: ten years ago. I wear what he was wearing ten
Speaker 1: years ago. Always, That's that just No, I'm just always
Speaker 1: like about ten years behind what fashion forward people are wearing.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I mean even for ten years ago,
Speaker 1: he's like three years ahead of now, right right. I
Speaker 1: mean that's why I'm full top until oh seven, Ah,
Speaker 1: this is I'm a little too simple for this now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm just looking at these twas like he was rocking
Speaker 1: the tiny beanie like at the very back of his head,
Speaker 1: like you know, ten years ago before, and that ship's
Speaker 1: just now like filtering through, uh you know, the whole
Speaker 1: like the bracelet thing, and then everybody jumped on that.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's so crazy everybody just jumps on this ship. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: I do have to give a shout out to my wife.
Speaker 1: She's been rocking, you know, hundreds of bracelets at a
Speaker 1: time since we were eighteen. Yeah, she's always been on
Speaker 1: that man. Just yeah, I didn't even know she had
Speaker 1: full sleeved tats for most of our relationship until because
Speaker 1: her bracelet game was so on point. She looked like
Speaker 1: she was training like in those martial arts films, trying
Speaker 1: to get her strength. Yeah, she was full sleeved at eighteen. No,
Speaker 1: I'm just joking and everything. Man, tis like ten years
Speaker 1: into your marriage you find out that your significant others
Speaker 1: like I never what's Dolly Parton stuff? Yeah? What are
Speaker 1: those three dots on your hands? About that? About those jack?
Speaker 1: How you've been married? You know, I've been married thirteen
Speaker 1: years years. Yeah, I just I just got married last week,
Speaker 1: So congrats man. Oh yeah yeah yeah, I'm talking to
Speaker 1: all my married friends and just trying to get get
Speaker 1: a little insight. Thirteen that's dope, okay them. My experience
Speaker 1: was that the whole like conventional wisdom about marriage that
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, there's the honeymoon phase and then
Speaker 1: it like gets hard round having years and like all
Speaker 1: that ship like that's my relationship has gotten better as
Speaker 1: it went like the beginning was the harder. The harder
Speaker 1: part is, yeah, it's it's new. You're still figuring your
Speaker 1: ship out. I think, yeah, it all depends. But like
Speaker 1: I try to like solve issues in my relationship very quickly.
Speaker 1: Like I don't like to sheet see ship faster because
Speaker 1: that's what I saw growing up. And I'm like getting
Speaker 1: dead ship immediately or else she's not gonna grow properly.
Speaker 1: So yeah, like the first three years me and her, majesty,
Speaker 1: you fucking why don't you know what I mean? And
Speaker 1: then we kind of got our ship together and started
Speaker 1: like you know, working on ourselves and being more like
Speaker 1: putting our egos out of the way and realizing, like, shit,
Speaker 1: if we're gonna like if this is gonna last, it's
Speaker 1: about hearing the other person and being like, Okay, I
Speaker 1: hear you on this. Maybe I can do that differently.
Speaker 1: But yeah, now it's I'm not married yet, but it's
Speaker 1: only been up you know. So yeah, yeah, that's beautiful.
Speaker 1: That's beautiful. Man. I like the hip fallas talk like this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what is something you think is overrated? Overright? I think
Speaker 1: social media is overrated? Yea? Social media? I mean forever? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, we all need it. But I think social
Speaker 1: media is like smoking right now. I think in like
Speaker 1: thirty years, everybody's gonna be looking back and be like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: we let kids do this ship. Wait, predators were able
Speaker 1: to holler at children directly. Yeah, I think it's gonna
Speaker 1: be books. Ye dad, were you doing this ship? I
Speaker 1: was like, look, man, TikTok was wold? You know? I
Speaker 1: know there was like a study that came out recently
Speaker 1: that said, like children interacting with technology didn't show like
Speaker 1: negative results like in the long term. But I think
Speaker 1: that's just going straight up talking about technology versus social media,
Speaker 1: which plenty of studies have shown like the effects of that,
Speaker 1: and like even listening to like some people who talk
Speaker 1: about it to it in a way where they talk
Speaker 1: about what it's done. Is also allowed you to like
Speaker 1: almost read people's thoughts. People can come at you and
Speaker 1: tell you what they think about you and all this
Speaker 1: other ship that. It's like a superpower nobody fucking asked for,
Speaker 1: And depending on how what your relationship with it is,
Speaker 1: it can be absolutely devastayd That's why I like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta examine your relationship with social media
Speaker 1: to find like a healthy balance. And mine is I know,
Speaker 1: like parents that you know, like they don't let their kids.
Speaker 1: Uh first of all, they don't let the kids have
Speaker 1: a phone, and they don't let their kids do like
Speaker 1: social media at all. And I'm like, that's probably a
Speaker 1: good move, that's probably a good idea. You know, I
Speaker 1: can't imagine if I had like Facebook, are all of it? Instagram, Twitter,
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't imagine having that in high school.
Speaker 1: I would have been such an asshole two people, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, just just to be able to
Speaker 1: do that had like a slick mouth. So totally. If
Speaker 1: I was able to funk with people over text too
Speaker 1: and be like miles away because I was already in
Speaker 1: ale well chat rooms fucking shipped up, so then that
Speaker 1: was like the height of it for me. So I'm
Speaker 1: glad I wasn't able. Yeah that's a double sword anyway.
Speaker 1: How you know, people with kids that are in their teams,
Speaker 1: what what the fund do y'all think? Is it their
Speaker 1: heads up? But you can only imagine or do you
Speaker 1: have to like lowrd over the ship, like give me
Speaker 1: your phone, let me see your deal is going on?
Speaker 1: What you like vape accounts? Just like knowing like you
Speaker 1: already turned. You know, your your skin is never thinner
Speaker 1: than when you're like a teenager, at least mine wasn't.
Speaker 1: Just I would see three I was the inside out boy.
Speaker 1: You could see my my skin was so thin. Um.
Speaker 1: But I would clap back just sort of disproportionately, and
Speaker 1: that's when it would turn into like I would become
Speaker 1: a villain, you know what I mean, classic villain where
Speaker 1: you're like you can't take it, and then you dish
Speaker 1: out is disproportionately, be like oh my goodness, and I'm
Speaker 1: like sorry, sorry, I'm hurting. You said wow over the
Speaker 1: end of that, and it's always up there. It's like
Speaker 1: that's not fair, man, that's not fair. Right, come on,
Speaker 1: I could have be at thirteen. I'm like, I said
Speaker 1: so much mean wild ship to people that was a record.
Speaker 1: It's like, come on, look man, I was I was
Speaker 1: a kid. So I think the worst thing I have
Speaker 1: is like me of like videotapes of me and my
Speaker 1: friends like crashing our bikes in front of cars and
Speaker 1: residential streets to see if they'd stop and help us.
Speaker 1: As like a frank, but really when you look back
Speaker 1: at like were we trying to just get straight ran over.
Speaker 1: This is so funny that lady thought I was hurt
Speaker 1: and it was like, yeah, so jackass copycat ship. That's
Speaker 1: in the archives for sure. Oh man, we were egging houses.
Speaker 1: I mean we were doing we were doing so much
Speaker 1: fighting people is just doing bad country, dumb ship. And
Speaker 1: I would have gotten caught doing so much more SHIP
Speaker 1: than I did, because, like, you know, I was hanging
Speaker 1: out with wild kids, going like sneaking out, doing vandalism
Speaker 1: and ship. When my parents thought I was at like
Speaker 1: my good friend's house or whatever, you know that would
Speaker 1: you had good friends for cover, I mean not really
Speaker 1: like they were. There was one house that I was
Speaker 1: not allowed to go to because they yeah, it was known.
Speaker 1: It was just like the parents were kind of passed
Speaker 1: out most of the time, and you just went there.
Speaker 1: And it's weird, like when you think of like how
Speaker 1: cool that house was when you were a kid, and
Speaker 1: then you look back and she was actually the most
Speaker 1: tragic thing. And so tried about my friend because their
Speaker 1: parents were actually weren't there even at the time. We're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we could smoke weed in his bedroom, yes, you know,
Speaker 1: and it's like, oh yeah, yeah, his dad passed out
Speaker 1: on M D M A J. What does that do?
Speaker 1: I can't. I'm not going to shout him out, I
Speaker 1: will said, I will say that it's the same the
Speaker 1: same kid that did I tell the story about. Oh no,
Speaker 1: I was telling that to another friend. But yeah, it's
Speaker 1: it was one of my homies who was just constantly
Speaker 1: talking ship getting in trouble. Would have been all over
Speaker 1: social media, would have found it funny that he got
Speaker 1: me grounded for like three months. He was Jake Paul
Speaker 1: basically yeah, yeah, yeah, are you still friends? No, okay,
Speaker 1: that was dating. So that was I moved away from
Speaker 1: there when I was twelve and didn't fully keep in
Speaker 1: touch with all those people, but great times at his place.
Speaker 1: All my friends like that. I'm not doing well right though. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's only a couple that like the scumhouse as like
Speaker 1: a kid who like I just got out of there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because you, I mean, it's exactly what you said, like,
Speaker 1: oh man, you could do this, we had we could
Speaker 1: party three a boarded. Yeah, it's porn stash, you know,
Speaker 1: all the good stuff. There's another kid named Miles at
Speaker 1: my school who's like he lived with his grandpa with
Speaker 1: a wild porno collection that like treated like a library.
Speaker 1: Which tape did you get from Miles Grandpa? They're like,
Speaker 1: you let me get the other one. No, not the
Speaker 1: world and gas masks and Ship. I can't get. I
Speaker 1: can't get with that one. I'm not joking. There was
Speaker 1: this one. We're like, yo, like, because you know, when
Speaker 1: you're like a sixth grade you only used a very
Speaker 1: vanilla porno and ship and then his grandma just wild
Speaker 1: compilation taste that were unlabeled, but news gas masks from
Speaker 1: like the World War two era. Yeah, that's why they
Speaker 1: were into it, like yeah, and they were wearing them
Speaker 1: and like they were greasing each other up and ship
Speaker 1: and I was like, huh, that's hilarious, love, that's amazing.
Speaker 1: That's a shame what they were doing. But look, twelve
Speaker 1: year old me, Sorry, couldn't get down to it for sure. No,
Speaker 1: It's just it's just you know, I just it's just
Speaker 1: a weird thing when it's like it's like old, you know,
Speaker 1: like fucking Heather Hunter, you know what I mean, old,
Speaker 1: like a Heather Hunter scene and then and then hard
Speaker 1: and then gas masks and you're like, whoa. It was
Speaker 1: weird because all the porno that you could find at
Speaker 1: that area, Like early nineties was from the seventies. It
Speaker 1: felt like or like eighties or is like weird aggressive
Speaker 1: eighties bootlegs right right. It's interesting. What is something you
Speaker 1: think is underrated? Greg niceness? Just genuine, straight up nice niceness,
Speaker 1: like letting people in on the freeway, you know, just
Speaker 1: speaking to somebody even if they don't speak back. Just
Speaker 1: just country niceness, country like that ship. I like when
Speaker 1: people just just nice for no reason. You ain't trying
Speaker 1: to get nothing. Yeah, it ain't even for them, It's
Speaker 1: strictly for you. I always say, it's I don't need
Speaker 1: jarring for me. I've come across it before. Like the
Speaker 1: first time I came across that kind of niceness, I
Speaker 1: had my fist clenched because I was like, growing up
Speaker 1: in l A. People are not people are fucking shitty,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's almost like, hey, how
Speaker 1: you doing. I'm right for me right now? Like hey Lakers,
Speaker 1: how I grew up out here? It's no way. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't trust anything Los Angeles. It's like, first of all,
Speaker 1: l A is like fifty places in one city, and
Speaker 1: this is what l A are you? Are you experiencing
Speaker 1: sims is going on? Are you a fake working class
Speaker 1: wealthy comedian version of are you? Who is pretending they
Speaker 1: don't come from a wealthy, dynastic family. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: there's so many versions, but yeah, the nice thing. I
Speaker 1: think it's it's great because I've I think, over time,
Speaker 1: gotten into it because it's less energy than like driving
Speaker 1: defense trying to get it right now. Hell no, no, no,
Speaker 1: they don't know about me. No, no, no, like now
Speaker 1: that I'm just like yeah, yeah, fire, yeah, come on there, yeah,
Speaker 1: go for a dog, all right, just switching that gear.
Speaker 1: It feels very easy. I had a friend that was like,
Speaker 1: because I drive like that, right, and my friends like,
Speaker 1: why do you do? That's like, look, man, what's what's
Speaker 1: the goal? I said, well, what's the goal. We're trying
Speaker 1: to get somewhere, right, I'm not trying to fight nobody.
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to get to the place safely. He's like,
Speaker 1: but that's the goal. Then they don't think you a
Speaker 1: little bitch, Like what, I don't care. I'm a bit
Speaker 1: well not exactly, but like I wouldn't let that happen
Speaker 1: to me. I'm like, well, that's your ego, so I don't.
Speaker 1: I'm in a car trying to go buy a hot dog.
Speaker 1: Where did you I grew up in Virginia for news
Speaker 1: bad dudes. Yeah, which is very country and very grimy.
Speaker 1: But it's so grimy that you like learn to like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be nice because I don't want to get
Speaker 1: beat up. Yeah, sprinkles, you're not scowling all the time. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it would be cool. Yeah, country nicest for sure. It
Speaker 1: is a real thing, and it's just yeah, it takes
Speaker 1: takes so much less energy, less thought, and you can
Speaker 1: just focus on things that are in your control like that.
Speaker 1: I feel like it's a thing that I wonder if
Speaker 1: this is the way it is for everyone. But like
Speaker 1: it was a bigger deal, Like how interactions with people
Speaker 1: I didn't know when when I was younger, like the
Speaker 1: steak seemed higher and now like as you get older
Speaker 1: and you realize, oh, I'm never I'm literally never going
Speaker 1: to see that person again in my life, like right, right,
Speaker 1: if it just used to be Yeah, it's just like
Speaker 1: sheer mathematics that like the more people Like now, I've
Speaker 1: run into a million people over the course of my life,
Speaker 1: and I haven't seen nine and ninety thousand of them
Speaker 1: ever again. So it's just you're just like, yeah, like,
Speaker 1: why would you put negativity out there into those people's lives?
Speaker 1: And also YO, give people thank you wave to gratitude.
Speaker 1: Also I do that too when people let me in
Speaker 1: because I like, you know, truckers, Like I always like truckers,
Speaker 1: and I get him where y'all got, y'all got you
Speaker 1: got places to go? You're getting my ship around. I'll
Speaker 1: swam my brakes to let truckers in. And then I
Speaker 1: like when they hit me with the hazard flashers, I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I got you, I got you. Well, it's beautiful and
Speaker 1: that ship like you know that that pay it forward
Speaker 1: energy is real? Yeah, you know that like that that wave.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, if you just keep doing that, you know,
Speaker 1: maybe that in twenty years that dude won't rob me.
Speaker 1: You know, it won't come back to me that way.
Speaker 1: I I feel like a pre emptive like a thing
Speaker 1: that you can do that's truly a selfless thing in
Speaker 1: l A use your turn signals. That is not the
Speaker 1: status quo in Los Angeles. People do not use their
Speaker 1: turn and people, I think we're all mind I don't know.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm like, I mean, this is car talk. Basically,
Speaker 1: we're talking to car talk with some old guys talking
Speaker 1: about how to be nice and pick up pick up
Speaker 1: one piece of trash. Yeah you know if you pick
Speaker 1: up one piece of trash and I just pick just
Speaker 1: pick it up, just like you never know that one
Speaker 1: of the teachers at school might see you and you'll
Speaker 1: get a price. Like, hey, I saw that you got
Speaker 1: doing a good deed. Here's a free ice cream. I'm
Speaker 1: big on that ship. My dad. My dad's one of
Speaker 1: those dudes. My dad's like, hey, man, be nice to everybody.
Speaker 1: Because my dad was like, man, you were first day

Speaker 1: that quality and that energy and that that genuine niceness.
Speaker 1: You can only win, you know, by putting out positivity whereverone,
Speaker 1: whenever possible, because you know what, life is one big
Speaker 1: curb your enthusiasm. Episode you come to talking that dumb ship,
Speaker 1: wait till the act two. When that character is the
Speaker 1: person that you need some from. It's always just just
Speaker 1: treat it like that. So when act two that person
Speaker 1: comes around they say I remember, or if someone asked,
Speaker 1: they said, I want to know about them, they're fucking dope. Yes,
Speaker 1: I like that person. Especially in Hollywood too, it's like
Speaker 1: you get work from other people. Yeah, and it's funny.
Speaker 1: There's so many fake ass nice people who think they're
Speaker 1: being slick with it. You're like, I can it's so
Speaker 1: clear to see someone who's sincerely like a kind person
Speaker 1: and someone that's being opportunistic. Some people can't read that
Speaker 1: as well, but I think a lot of the times
Speaker 1: they're people doing a lot extra ship when you're like
Speaker 1: you're being a little too mm hm true, but yeah,
Speaker 1: just be nice. Yeah, shout out to the nice mailmen

Speaker 1: a quick break. We'll be right back. And we're back,
Speaker 1: and after all the positive vibes up top, let's descend
Speaker 1: into let's descend into talking about Donald Trump briefly, because
Speaker 1: it's pretty open and shut, or it should have been.
Speaker 1: I guess Facebook, the scotus of Facebook, the Supreme Court,
Speaker 1: they were basically like, I don't know, why are you
Speaker 1: guys asking us? Yeah, he can be ba, but like,
Speaker 1: you guys need to make a decision. Don't throw it
Speaker 1: to us, right. Facebook had like basically through to their
Speaker 1: Supreme Court whether they were right in banning Trump for life,
Speaker 1: and they were like the for life things. He was weird,
Speaker 1: but it's you guys will call you're you're the business.
Speaker 1: So I I don't even know like what this board
Speaker 1: is is for, but he at least remains banned for
Speaker 1: probably the next six months. Yeah, they'll revisit it in
Speaker 1: six months, and they're just saying just go with your policy.
Speaker 1: If if he violated the rules to actually be banned,
Speaker 1: then then do that. So what's going on? But I
Speaker 1: think because it's like this oversight board is sort of
Speaker 1: quasi independent, and there's still a lot of questions about
Speaker 1: like how much they actually like, how many, how many,
Speaker 1: how many of the decisions they actually inform and like
Speaker 1: mother Jones, like back in March, heem will Levi wrote
Speaker 1: this sort of just blurb about it, saying, quote, while
Speaker 1: the company has touted it as an independent body that
Speaker 1: will make final content moderation decisions, thus far, the board
Speaker 1: has only decided a handful of cases, and concerns about
Speaker 1: its true independence remained. The outcome of the Trump case
Speaker 1: could either help build the body's reputation among academics and
Speaker 1: civil and human rights advocates as a valuable shield against
Speaker 1: harmful content, or dash hopes so they can with the
Speaker 1: well kinda sit right in the middle, a bit of
Speaker 1: a chest pass right back to him. That the fact
Speaker 1: that they were like, I don't know, you guys decide
Speaker 1: was actually made me hopeful that they are independent, because
Speaker 1: that's doesn't seem like if Mark Zuckerberg could have written
Speaker 1: this publicity like hit that he would have had them
Speaker 1: say that, you know they're ruling would include them being like,
Speaker 1: I don't know if Facebook is, you know, being derelict
Speaker 1: in his duties by throwing this in our court. It
Speaker 1: should be up to them. They can make the decision. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're just the only the only thing that they didn't
Speaker 1: like was just saying, like, figure out what it is
Speaker 1: because indefinite it doesn't and that goes against whatever your
Speaker 1: policies are. So he's either back or he's gone for life.
Speaker 1: Tell us in six months, okay. I think Facebook is
Speaker 1: trying to like trying to differ from being a monopoly,
Speaker 1: you know. I think this is all like they're looking
Speaker 1: at the long game and like if we don't let
Speaker 1: them back in, then sooner or later, the big government
Speaker 1: is going to come into us and try to break
Speaker 1: up this monopoly that we have over social media. Right.
Speaker 1: I think that's what they're looking at. I mean, they're
Speaker 1: definitely looking at many things, right because one side of
Speaker 1: it is like, do we piss off the democratic administration
Speaker 1: that's in right now by saying he's back, baby, and
Speaker 1: here's a fucking li g live to go with it?
Speaker 1: Or yeah, like what do what do they do. I mean,
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I think it's true.
Speaker 1: They need to come They need to figure out what
Speaker 1: to do with these companies very quickly, because the fact
Speaker 1: that Mark Zuckerberg could just unleash a storm of disinformation
Speaker 1: with the snap of a finger is a problem. And
Speaker 1: it feels like we're in this It doesn't feel like
Speaker 1: we are in a situation where if like three oligarchs
Speaker 1: are having a bad day, they could funk up the
Speaker 1: whole world. Yeah. Yeah, they need to figure this out
Speaker 1: quick um. But it seems like that's like the one
Speaker 1: thing that there may be some bipartisan agreement on because
Speaker 1: on one side, they're like they're they're stifling us, even
Speaker 1: though we're like nine out of the top ten content
Speaker 1: creators on Facebook. And also, you know, for the other side,
Speaker 1: democrats like, yeah, this isn't healthy at all, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's too much power. They know it. The fact that
Speaker 1: he described this board as a supreme court, it's like,
Speaker 1: companies aren't supposed to need a Supreme court, my guy,
Speaker 1: Like that's yeah, like that, but that is a tacit
Speaker 1: acknowledgement of the fact that you guys have way too
Speaker 1: much power in the world, and you're basically wielding the
Speaker 1: power of a massive like nation state. So maybe maybe
Speaker 1: let's break that up. But yeah, I think you're exactly right, Greig,
Speaker 1: Like this is everything they do has to be seen
Speaker 1: as a reaction to the you know the fact that
Speaker 1: they're trying to avoid being broken up. And you know,
Speaker 1: Democrats want to break them up on principle because it's
Speaker 1: poisonous for the I mean not Democrats, not big d Democrats,
Speaker 1: but I'd say like people for the left want to
Speaker 1: break them up on principle, and then people on the
Speaker 1: right now are gonna be pissed because they're yeah truck. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So we should also talk about that the hot new
Speaker 1: social media tool that is just a single web page
Speaker 1: where Donald Trump writes stuff a k. A blog. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he he has spent to the blog. I think it's
Speaker 1: bull dot shit, bull dot ship here dot out of
Speaker 1: hair slash gun. But yeah, it's it's all just And
Speaker 1: what's wild though, too, is it's actually worse for him
Speaker 1: because at least the tweets were succinct. Quote, you know,
Speaker 1: like you can only do you play ramble so much
Speaker 1: in a tweet. Now this one got paragraphs and like
Speaker 1: you get exhausted, like he's this one on May five
Speaker 1: am warmonger Liz Cheney, who is ritually knows that it's
Speaker 1: just like, oh my god, I can't like war monger man,
Speaker 1: like whatever that's already just does my head in and
Speaker 1: it goes on and on. He's like taking shots at
Speaker 1: all these other people and yeah, it's just it all
Speaker 1: continues with these just one off blog posts that are
Speaker 1: just not good. So you think he'll run again. You
Speaker 1: think he's gonna run again if he clears all that,
Speaker 1: if he clears all that legal ship. Probably, I mean
Speaker 1: it's possible. But part of me feels like he knows
Speaker 1: how much he It probably stressed him. I don't know
Speaker 1: if it's stressed him out or didn't. It's so hard
Speaker 1: to know what he knows or thinks. But I know
Speaker 1: he didn't like doing the actual work of the president.
Speaker 1: I think he definitely wants the status again at man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he loves that energy. Yeah, exactly. He can't. He's I can't.
Speaker 1: He's like join, He's like, I can't walk away from
Speaker 1: the game. He's absolutely. Yeah, he's like every athlete, you know,
Speaker 1: the like it's not in the best interest of his
Speaker 1: of anything for him to run again. But I would
Speaker 1: be shocked if he's able to stop him. So even
Speaker 1: if people don't, like if there's no if people are
Speaker 1: like he really is going to get killed by DeSantis
Speaker 1: or whatever, like, he would have a hard time stopping himself.
Speaker 1: I think because he's a he's an arcisist who has
Speaker 1: that one experience where he was right and the world
Speaker 1: was wrong. And I don't think he's ever getting past
Speaker 1: that hit that high. You know, he's gonna be chasing
Speaker 1: that high for the rest of his life. He's like,
Speaker 1: what the you mean I left? I started off with
Speaker 1: the four or five on me like Michael, and he
Speaker 1: got a big crewe. He's still got a whole. But
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there is I think people underrate
Speaker 1: how specifically perfect he is for Twitter, like how he
Speaker 1: and Twitter were made for each other, because like I
Speaker 1: remember when like during the rise of Trump during the
Speaker 1: sixteen election, Cody Johnston pointed out to me that like
Speaker 1: he had a YouTube page where he was doing basically
Speaker 1: his ship his Twitter thing where he's like, you know,
Speaker 1: just being like Kristen Stewart needs to dump Robert Pattinson.
Speaker 1: Actually it was vice versa, but it was that mixed
Speaker 1: with like him doing birth or ship and like racist
Speaker 1: ship and like all the dog Whistle ship, all the
Speaker 1: stuff that would make him really popular on Twitter. Those
Speaker 1: videos had like three views, like they were just like
Speaker 1: very like nobody gave a shit about them at all,
Speaker 1: and like they were a minute long. But it's just
Speaker 1: like that's not what people go to YouTube for and
Speaker 1: so uh, because he can't sustain an entire idea for
Speaker 1: more than a certain amount of characters anyway, so it
Speaker 1: gives it also helps, you know, helps him to like
Speaker 1: punctuate his ideas because he's limited by what he can
Speaker 1: say in one tweet. Yeah, but anyway, peace out. I
Speaker 1: hope to never see you on this cursed internet. Yeah yeah, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I hope be fine. Something in his life, man, you know,
Speaker 1: like actually would be amazing, you know, just do something manous.
Speaker 1: I don't though, or like the Ark of the Covenant
Speaker 1: that he thinks he can open up and look straight
Speaker 1: into Oh man, he kind of looks like he's melting.
Speaker 1: He looks like maybe like he gotta look at that
Speaker 1: for like a split second and like started the melting
Speaker 1: process and then I shut the lid up real quick
Speaker 1: or like a homie showed him a picture on their
Speaker 1: phone of when it opened up and they got like
Speaker 1: the second hand park of the governant melter off of it.
Speaker 1: That would explain a lot of Yeah, exactly, it was
Speaker 1: not quite melting it, but it's like your face looked
Speaker 1: heavy though, Oh oh no, look look at my man.
Speaker 1: You could tell he looked into Look at his face.
Speaker 1: What what are you talking about? Like the fucking fucking
Speaker 1: arc of the bootleg. That's hilarious. That would explain a
Speaker 1: lot if the Conservatives all just like had the ark
Speaker 1: of the Covenant and like couldn't resist looking at it,
Speaker 1: like every once in a while they're like, gosh, Mitch
Speaker 1: McConnell looks like that. Yeah, when miss McConnell's face like
Speaker 1: turned purple and ship that was because he yeah, come
Speaker 1: on his wife like like what are you doing? It
Speaker 1: feels so good? Oh there, Uh, let's talk about what
Speaker 1: Fox is doing in there. They're they're enlisting child soldiers
Speaker 1: in their culture wars. Now, yeah, this is the thing
Speaker 1: Fox and Fox and Friends likes to do. We're from
Speaker 1: time to time they'll have like kids come on and
Speaker 1: like a panel of children just to sort of do
Speaker 1: like a thing to underline it take like even the
Speaker 1: kids see how bad this is, Like even the kids
Speaker 1: see how great Trump is. Type shit. So this time
Speaker 1: because they're so bored and they can't talk about real
Speaker 1: ship anymore because if they talk about Biden, it makes
Speaker 1: it makes the viewers like him, so they can't talk
Speaker 1: about him in any way to report it, So it
Speaker 1: has to be all like a dunk slam dunk contest
Speaker 1: on Joe Biden constantly on Fox that a report or something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they well they show like when there's any massive reforms,
Speaker 1: like when the stimulus and stuff was getting past, or
Speaker 1: like anything else that was like a sweeping bill, they
Speaker 1: would not report on it because a lot of them
Speaker 1: had bipartisan support, like from the people, not necessarily from
Speaker 1: the politicians but from citizens were like yeah, I like
Speaker 1: the relief bill, and so they didn't say shit about it.
Speaker 1: I think that was the Doctor Sue sweek. It's always
Speaker 1: like whenever one of those cancel culture things pops up,
Speaker 1: it's usually just a distraction from some news which is
Speaker 1: either really bad for the GOP, like talking about Matt
Speaker 1: Gates or having to report something good about Biden. So
Speaker 1: Brian Kill Meade has these four kids on for them
Speaker 1: to just like have this like panel of children to
Speaker 1: take a ship on Joe Biden like in his like
Speaker 1: handling of them going back to school. So the first
Speaker 1: clip is just you know, Joe Biden and Dr Jill
Speaker 1: Biden just out of fucking school talking to kids who
Speaker 1: are back in class, just to get like a temperature check.
Speaker 1: How did you like remote learning? Yeah, yeah, it's good
Speaker 1: luck with that. The President getting an earful from students
Speaker 1: in Virginia this week, was he prepared for that? Kids
Speaker 1: across the country are stuck learning on zoom and begging
Speaker 1: to get back in the classroom, including our next three
Speaker 1: guests joining us, now sixth grader in Philadelphia, Mason aggressive
Speaker 1: intro for something about yeah, good luck with that. Kids
Speaker 1: are fucking pissed, bro. One kid said I didn't like it.
Speaker 1: When kids said I liked it, oh wow, good luck.
Speaker 1: They got the pitchforks out for this motherfucker. Wow, good luck?
Speaker 1: What the what are you saying? I can't believe that
Speaker 1: that was actually how it was presented. They got I
Speaker 1: didn't like it, Yeah I did like it, okay, and
Speaker 1: then wow, pissed America is pissed then, But the way
Speaker 1: he talks to these kids like they're the leading experts
Speaker 1: on child development is hilarious. So this is way he
Speaker 1: talks to a little girl who was so brave because
Speaker 1: she memorized all the things her maga parents are making
Speaker 1: her say on live television. Mind you, this Fox, This
Speaker 1: this ye was airing at six forty Eastern, so this
Speaker 1: child had to wake up at three thirty in the
Speaker 1: morning in California to talk all this nonsense on a
Speaker 1: school day. But anyway, let's allow kill me to just
Speaker 1: let me get let me get the tone from this
Speaker 1: ten year old. An expert in this really got up
Speaker 1: at three forty for us. I appreciate it in California,
Speaker 1: but guess what your numbers are the lowest in the country.
Speaker 1: You should be back in school right now. The danger
Speaker 1: is infinitesimal. What's the reality for you? Way to use? Uh,
Speaker 1: nice small words that kids can understand very clearly used
Speaker 1: to talking to children. What are you talking about? What
Speaker 1: do you want her to say back to that? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, Joe Biden is he's he's fucking
Speaker 1: up huh so pumped up, animated. It's like the energy
Speaker 1: is really something else, like to scream at these kids
Speaker 1: to get them to be like Joe Biden sucks right,
Speaker 1: and you know what your numbers are? The lowest is
Speaker 1: like such a weird like whoa what? Like you know
Speaker 1: what numbers like three, four or five? I know those numbers.
Speaker 1: I'm a child, dumb mathematics numbers. Yeah, so this is
Speaker 1: this is him talking to this young girl and then
Speaker 1: like he again, he's talking to these kids like they're
Speaker 1: fucking assholes. Do you think we really need to get
Speaker 1: back into the classrooms because it will be far more
Speaker 1: beneficial than online is right now, Literally, it's unbelievable. I've
Speaker 1: never heard of this. You have to go, you get
Speaker 1: your assignment, you do it at home. That's ridiculous. School.
Speaker 1: You can't even get a teacher to zoom call with you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that is nuts. And you're not learning anything you just
Speaker 1: told me right, No, I probably haven't been learning anything
Speaker 1: since March thirteenth, which is the last day school that
Speaker 1: we have. Well, I don't blame yourself, blame your politicians
Speaker 1: and your unions. Your unions what the child union? Who
Speaker 1: are unions? Wait? Come about again? Because he's kid? Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: don't get me started, Brian, I know about organized labor
Speaker 1: is gonna sunk up the American dream. You don't have
Speaker 1: to tell me, Brian. Now, Tommy, if I understand, you
Speaker 1: think school sucks? Is that correct? Actually? So he does
Speaker 1: go to Mason, the sixth grader, and this is where Mason,
Speaker 1: uh he fucked up okay because he made the grave
Speaker 1: error of saluting Joe Biden to Brian kill Me In
Speaker 1: this next clip when Brian kill Me thinks it's a
Speaker 1: toss up, He's like, Mason, what do you what do
Speaker 1: you miss? What do you miss him? School? What are
Speaker 1: you missing out on? Tell us about that? Um? I
Speaker 1: miss most obviously seeing my friends and all the after
Speaker 1: school of two d's that I've done. And I think
Speaker 1: that we're very very close getting back from school. And
Speaker 1: I think that, um, the way that our new president
Speaker 1: is handling things is a very good way. And we
Speaker 1: would not have gone to this if it were still
Speaker 1: the last president. That's hard to believe because the last
Speaker 1: president was saying I want every kid back in school.
Speaker 1: Uh So, Lily, for you, it's throwing it back to Lily. Mason.
Speaker 1: Shut the funk up. More on that later, Lily. He's
Speaker 1: treating this young kid like he's some drunk asshole that
Speaker 1: wandered into a kid's soccer game. Okay, really, come on,
Speaker 1: I sill you go. Actually, what the funk was that? Sorry,
Speaker 1: but really that's hard to believe. Mason literally bring it
Speaker 1: back home, Blue Lives Matter, right, kid. It sounds like
Speaker 1: he actually has a head on his show, and he
Speaker 1: was like confused when Brian was like really, he was
Speaker 1: like yeah, yeah, Like because this new administration believes in science.
Speaker 1: Last president almost died of COVID. We're in school, and
Speaker 1: school teaches like science and ship and thank Copernicus and
Speaker 1: the Unions for that. You can thank Mason for you guys,
Speaker 1: have any grandparents that died? Yeah, comes to the skull.
Speaker 1: Fuck your dad's four one fifty and turned into a
Speaker 1: little electric scooter. Okay, poor kid, poor kids. Like it's
Speaker 1: so stupid, this so fucked up. But again, this is
Speaker 1: it's really it's just idiocracy type ship just in real
Speaker 1: Like you're like, holy dude, he's screaming at him. Believe
Speaker 1: they brought kids on and he's screaming at the kids
Speaker 1: and they brought up But also like, what exactly was
Speaker 1: the point of this, right, because even if Mason didn't
Speaker 1: get out of pocket like some fucking free thinking asshole
Speaker 1: like that. They were just gonna tell They were just
Speaker 1: going to tell the Fox audience things they already believe.
Speaker 1: So how's that gonna move the needle? Like or it's
Speaker 1: just more to be like, let's just keep them more
Speaker 1: entrenched and use this cacophony of child voices. Nobody vetted
Speaker 1: the kids. How did they know? The producer got fired quick?
Speaker 1: He was like, what the fuck is Mason? Do Fran
Speaker 1: getting here? I mean, miss my friends? Yeah, it sounds
Speaker 1: like it sounds about right, miss my after school? You know,
Speaker 1: at least this new president is on some science ship.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, really yeah, well because the other president wanted
Speaker 1: to open up schools when everybody was dying. So shut up, Mason,
Speaker 1: you look like a torp. Okay, yeah, look like you
Speaker 1: even developed, look like a fucking bird full get on
Speaker 1: my face, on my face, mazing, really back to you, Lily,
Speaker 1: isn't Mason like this? Don't we think Mason sounds like Mason? Right?
Speaker 1: That's really mean, don't Brian. It sounds like you're kind
Speaker 1: of bullying him. My teacher said, that's bullying. Oh shut
Speaker 1: up Lily, you fucking lose. All right, let's let's just
Speaker 1: go to commercially. These kids are sucking dumb yo. Is
Speaker 1: that has that like gotten a lot of play that
Speaker 1: is wild that segment. I mean, people like first rate
Speaker 1: shows and podcasts like I don't know, possibly just happened today,
Speaker 1: So I think, you know, hopefully, uh maybe some writers
Speaker 1: on last week tonight are listening, and you know, you
Speaker 1: know that is beautiful. I mean, it's it's truly like,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of it makes sense, but they
Speaker 1: are like the conventional wisdom is that like when the
Speaker 1: other administration is in office, they'll be able to Fox
Speaker 1: News gets to eat, you know, that's when they're really
Speaker 1: like served up all all the red meat that they
Speaker 1: can like outrage their base with. But their policies like
Speaker 1: went so far with Trump that like they and they're
Speaker 1: just not popular, like they can't do it. And the
Speaker 1: that myth like the bootstraps like we're so number one.
Speaker 1: Everyone's life it is perfect myth has eroded so like
Speaker 1: to a much further degree where it's hard to bullshit
Speaker 1: people about their lived experiences day to day anymore, Like
Speaker 1: where people are more in denial it about it because
Speaker 1: on one hand, they could be like, look at Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: just given all these lazy people like all this money away,
Speaker 1: which they do to some extent. But if they reported,
Speaker 1: like on the stimulus, like too many people like no,
Speaker 1: I actually need that money, so they're like, fuck what
Speaker 1: we do? So I guess we just have kids say
Speaker 1: dumb shit. Yeah. Look they painted themselves in a corner
Speaker 1: eat ship idiots. Yeah, And I mean a version of
Speaker 1: that happens on you know, like on MSNBC two where
Speaker 1: it's like they can't fully you know, for how like
Speaker 1: progressive they seemed when Trump was it's like where it's
Speaker 1: not the same intensity now that Joe Biden's in office.
Speaker 1: So it's just a little bit like, oh this is great. Look,
Speaker 1: you know, everybody has their the people that they have
Speaker 1: to protect in the yea, the if it just feels
Speaker 1: like the thing that used to be doing with Fox News,
Speaker 1: which is like criticizing the substance of like the bullshit
Speaker 1: that they're reporting, that has now shifted to like okay,
Speaker 1: that's more like what the mainstream media is doing. And
Speaker 1: Fox News is just this like strange, like disconnected parody
Speaker 1: of itself that like it it's not even like they're
Speaker 1: not They don't even like make a claim to any
Speaker 1: sort of accuracy. It's just wild. Alright, let's take a
Speaker 1: quick break and we'll be right back. And we're back,
Speaker 1: and let's talk about some lighter stuff, such as, did
Speaker 1: you guys see the picture of the bidens with the
Speaker 1: carters looking like actual human giants next to the carters?
Speaker 1: It was my favorite. It's my favorite photo right now,
Speaker 1: like the Carter. I don't know whether to be terrified
Speaker 1: of the bidens or like really, you know, worried about
Speaker 1: the fact that the Carters are deflating. Yeah, the jokes
Speaker 1: were pretty funny that we're coming out, but I mean,
Speaker 1: clearly a lot of lens distortion. But it's nice to
Speaker 1: see because I remember looking at him like, hold on,
Speaker 1: So they got custom built tiny chairs because I'm like,
Speaker 1: how Joe is stacking up? He can't fit in that chair?
Speaker 1: I think these is this a tiny room they had made?
Speaker 1: But you're like, m it's a white angle. Yeah it's yeah.
Speaker 1: So I did like a bunch of research on not
Speaker 1: a bunch, like twenty minutes of research on just how
Speaker 1: how this happens, and finding like pictures that were taken
Speaker 1: with a wide angle versus a you know, regular angle,
Speaker 1: and like the person looks completely different, Like they look
Speaker 1: like a different person, right right, Yeah, sort of destoryan yeah,
Speaker 1: your features and ship. Yeah, like if if you're up
Speaker 1: close to something with a wide angle, like you'll look
Speaker 1: like a completely different person than you normally look like.
Speaker 1: It's yeah, pretty well. They were so little though, I
Speaker 1: mean it makes me mad that they aren't that little.
Speaker 1: I know, like I like to think like you just
Speaker 1: you just shrink into a little fun person as you
Speaker 1: do shrink a little bit. Yeah, you definitely shrink for sure.
Speaker 1: But like this looked like, you know, Tolkien type ship. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I kind of want to see the Carters with jay Z.
Speaker 1: The other card is jay Z and Beyonce and kids.
Speaker 1: I want to see the Carters and the Carters, all
Speaker 1: the Carters. I want to see all of them with
Speaker 1: different families, you know, switch it up. So Jay and
Speaker 1: Beyonce are the tiny ones and June and Jimmy are
Speaker 1: like just towering over them. Like right, Jimmy Carter. I
Speaker 1: love Jimmy Carter on that dude. So it's peanut fun
Speaker 1: to become president. Yeah, look at him and he put
Speaker 1: up solar panels on the fucking White House. He did,
Speaker 1: and he's had Yeah, and then Reagan took him right down,
Speaker 1: you know. Good old Ron was like, it's gonna mess
Speaker 1: up my satellite for my TV show. It's like, how
Speaker 1: I am gonna get the latest track crack statistics to
Speaker 1: shoot on my roof cracks the crack ticker in the
Speaker 1: oval off the scenes. It's wild that, like they get
Speaker 1: credit as being like more down to earth than Jimmy Carter,
Speaker 1: because Jimmy Carter let people like smoke weed on the
Speaker 1: roof of the White House. But Nancy Reagan was consulting
Speaker 1: a uh like psychic basically an astrology for her shoot
Speaker 1: her food a hundred times before she's swallowed it or something, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's time to eat, Like well, her mom would choot
Speaker 1: a hundred times before dropping it into a little bird. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Of Nancy Reagan with Mr T. I think Nancy Reagan
Speaker 1: sitting on Mr T's laugh, Yeah, captures a moment in time.
Speaker 1: Any celebrity who came to that White House. Every photo
Speaker 1: looks surreal, Yeah, even like that Patrick Ewing one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, and John Thompson eighties were a wild
Speaker 1: bad but very fun to look at. Era. Let's talk
Speaker 1: about m d m A. M hmmm. So we've talked
Speaker 1: in the past about how therapists who treat PTSD or
Speaker 1: like very encouraged by early trials of m d m
Speaker 1: A when paired with you know, actual therapy. So they
Speaker 1: finally got this sort of major groundbreaking study double blind,
Speaker 1: you know, had a significant number of people, and they
Speaker 1: found that two months after treatment, sixty seven of participants
Speaker 1: in uh, the m d m A group no longer
Speaker 1: qualified for a diagnosis of PTSD compared with thirty in
Speaker 1: the placebo group. So the placebo group got place ebo's
Speaker 1: but then they also did the therapy. So uh, this
Speaker 1: guy gold Dolan, who's a neuroscientist that Johns Hopkins who
Speaker 1: has has like no involvement, is just like, from an
Speaker 1: outside perspective, this is about as exciting as clinical trials get.
Speaker 1: There's nothing like this in clinical trial results for neuropsychiatric disease.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's just super encouraging. I also, I feel
Speaker 1: like this is something that should be a movement over
Speaker 1: the course of like this entire next like generation of
Speaker 1: humans that like, there there's a reason people were risking
Speaker 1: their lives and uh, you know, their freedom to self
Speaker 1: medicate with these drugs. It's like they there's, uh, there's
Speaker 1: something useful and if you use them in a very
Speaker 1: controlled environment, like it's it's going to be powerful. Like
Speaker 1: if you just take seriously the experience of drug users
Speaker 1: who say, actually, like psychedelics gave me a really positive
Speaker 1: shift in like my mental spiritual life like that. Like
Speaker 1: if you think about, like if any of the other
Speaker 1: you know, if like Paxel or like one of the
Speaker 1: prozac was taken off the market tomorrow, there wouldn't be
Speaker 1: like a booming Paxel or Prozac market where like people
Speaker 1: are smuggling those drugs because they're just not like I
Speaker 1: I think that combining the market uh instincts of just
Speaker 1: like people and like the black market with what we're
Speaker 1: able to find uh through like clinical trials, I feel
Speaker 1: like could be could be a big deal, could be
Speaker 1: really ul to science. I think that the thing that
Speaker 1: makes it really psychedelics advantageous and sort of therapeutic context
Speaker 1: is that, like you know, like when you're you're partying
Speaker 1: on them, what you feel is this like openness. You know.
Speaker 1: That's why people enjoy that because it it allows you
Speaker 1: to sort of experience your yourself in a way that
Speaker 1: is completely uninhibited, like you might normally be if you're
Speaker 1: not taking psychedelics. But and a very small level, it's
Speaker 1: that openness that helps, along with the therapy to really
Speaker 1: examine ship to get through it. Because we have so
Speaker 1: many walls up and trauma causes all these fund up
Speaker 1: ways we try and protect ourselves that it's more like,
Speaker 1: let's melt those walls down so we can fucking get
Speaker 1: like really to some healing um. And yeah, it's true.
Speaker 1: I think the next few years are really pivotal because
Speaker 1: it's almost like we need to start Also, we need
Speaker 1: to have more of a I mean, there's clearly a
Speaker 1: movement to move away from just like drugs that are
Speaker 1: just gonna mask things and actually trying to figure out
Speaker 1: how we can improve things for someone rather than to
Speaker 1: just make things bearable. And I think this is a
Speaker 1: really important step. And for years a lot of people
Speaker 1: have been pointing to this year. They felt like could
Speaker 1: be the year where we're gonna finally start getting some
Speaker 1: like legal m d m A to start using in
Speaker 1: these therapeutic settings. Yeah, and I mean all you read
Speaker 1: and here are just like really interesting stories of how
Speaker 1: much it's helped people, and you know who, who'd have
Speaker 1: thought that it would work better than the ones that
Speaker 1: are just meant to sort of numb you. Yeah, they
Speaker 1: this one person's experience. I always find like descriptions of
Speaker 1: psychedelic experiences kind of mind blowing because they reveal the
Speaker 1: power of the mind. Like this person describes their experience
Speaker 1: in the therapeutic setting, and it's basically like this drug
Speaker 1: gives him access too a part of his mind that
Speaker 1: just creates this like beautiful surrealist work of art that
Speaker 1: his brain was just producing in the background in order
Speaker 1: to allow him to heal himself. Like, so it's talking
Speaker 1: about this guy Ostrom who was in a rock. His
Speaker 1: days were punctuated by panic attacks. He had nightmares, like
Speaker 1: really vivid nightmares about like being stuck in a town,
Speaker 1: like cut off from his troop and like being followed
Speaker 1: around by insurgents. The bullets like instead of firing out
Speaker 1: of his gun, with like dribble out of his gun um.
Speaker 1: And so he like dropped out of college, pushed friends
Speaker 1: and family, way, got into an unhealthy relationship, was charged
Speaker 1: with assault and attempted suicide. So then he does this
Speaker 1: therapy and they describe his sessions. He now says he's
Speaker 1: literally a different person. During his first of three sessions
Speaker 1: in early twenty nineteen, lying on a couch with I
Speaker 1: shades and in a loop sid dream like state, mr
Speaker 1: Ostrom encountered a spinning, oily black ball like an onion.
Speaker 1: The ball had many layers, each want of memory at
Speaker 1: the center. Mr Ostrom relived the moment in a rock.
Speaker 1: He said that I became the person I needed to
Speaker 1: be to survive that combat deployment. Over the next two sessions,
Speaker 1: mr Ostrom engaged with quote the Bully as he calls
Speaker 1: his PTSD alter ego, and asked permission for Scott to return.
Speaker 1: That was who he was before the war. Uh. Now
Speaker 1: he worked steadily as an HVAC specialist, owns a home
Speaker 1: which he shares with his girlfriend, has a service dog. UM,
Speaker 1: and he says, the reason I like calling this medicine
Speaker 1: is it's stimulated my own consciousness. Is conscious consciousness is
Speaker 1: ability for self healing. Uh, you understand why it's okay
Speaker 1: to experience unconditional love for yourself like that? Uh? For
Speaker 1: that passage really gets it. Like what I find so
Speaker 1: honest thing is like the thing that the thing that
Speaker 1: gets in the way of our you know, psychiatric uh
Speaker 1: progresses like that the mind is this massive, powerful, constantly
Speaker 1: shifting uh just more complicated than we could even possibly
Speaker 1: like conceive of thing that we mostly don't have access to,
Speaker 1: like with our conscious mind. And like the fact that
Speaker 1: this just gives you access to this thing that's so
Speaker 1: much more powerful than uh, you can you can imagine
Speaker 1: as opposed to like you were saying, miles as supposed
Speaker 1: to like numbing one part of that thing or you know,
Speaker 1: separating us from the effects of that thing. Like I
Speaker 1: feel like that is kind of again it could be
Speaker 1: like a c change in yeah, because I think it's
Speaker 1: like almost undoing all of this ship that we have
Speaker 1: societally that creates that puts us in the condition we're
Speaker 1: in currently, and it and depending and if the environments
Speaker 1: you grow up in your experiences or traumatic and things
Speaker 1: like that, that on top of all of this can
Speaker 1: create a situation where it becomes can become nearly impossible
Speaker 1: to have a level of self examination or awareness because
Speaker 1: you've had to build up so many layers to survive
Speaker 1: and just prolong your experience even no matter how tormented
Speaker 1: it is, that you sort of need this. Like again,
Speaker 1: this idea that experiencing unconditional love for yourself I think
Speaker 1: sounds foreign to most people, well at least in America.
Speaker 1: Like a lot of people maybe on a you know,
Speaker 1: pinterest way, no loving yourself, but in a very truly
Speaker 1: holistic idea of like what that means to engage in,
Speaker 1: you know, practicing unconditional love for yourself, to treat yourself
Speaker 1: with kindness, to be aware that there is a relationship
Speaker 1: between you and yourself that you have to enrich. I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: some of those things that you can like feel vibrationally
Speaker 1: in those moments. Yeah, just reading the and you know,
Speaker 1: silocybin has been you for people who are about to die,
Speaker 1: Like they get to have these clinical experiences where they
Speaker 1: encounter that, and I don't know, it just makes me wonder,
Speaker 1: like why we wait to give people a fear of
Speaker 1: death curing like circumspection pill until they're about to die.
Speaker 1: Like what if our teachers and police and leaders and
Speaker 1: you know, all had the opportunity to view the world
Speaker 1: with that wider lens, maybe we wouldn't have as many
Speaker 1: soldiers coming home from wars with PTSD in the first place, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: to consider what it means to be human. Yeah. Well
Speaker 1: and then but like then you have people like Elon
Speaker 1: mostly Yeah, I'm Mike rudeous all the time, exactly right,
Speaker 1: That why became Snake from the Simpsons. But like there's
Speaker 1: a but I think there is like to pair it
Speaker 1: with like the the desire to improve yourself and having
Speaker 1: someone there to help you with that professionally. I think
Speaker 1: it's like, man, yeah, again, I hope this will become
Speaker 1: the norm because we so much of our medicine and
Speaker 1: things like that is just to get people to like
Speaker 1: zero or like neutral, never to go past that, or
Speaker 1: you know, just to make things bearable, like rather than
Speaker 1: how can we actually help everyone move pushed past certain
Speaker 1: things and actually enrich themselves from the tech industry. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's funny that the tech industry is using this tool
Speaker 1: for like greater human understanding and like circumspection to like
Speaker 1: it makes me better at capitalism, dude, Just like that
Speaker 1: makes me I'm like so much like just on it,
Speaker 1: you know, in the post ready to go thinking outside
Speaker 1: the box on how to exploit all this intellectual property?
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Man, so I came up
Speaker 1: with n F T S. Yeah, that's totally that's totally
Speaker 1: just I got something. I got some, I got something.
Speaker 1: Get it away from the disrupt the entire fucking world.
Speaker 1: No nobody asked for that. I mean, he's gonna disrupt
Speaker 1: the funk out of inequality Player one and all. That
Speaker 1: ship is totally just psychedelics, just on a whole another level. Hold,
Speaker 1: so I could just beat this dude when I put
Speaker 1: these grasses on, and I could just feed out into
Speaker 1: my old world and I could fly four hours. Like
Speaker 1: that's called me and Me on the Occupus right now.
Speaker 1: Oculus is pretty cool. I just used it for the
Speaker 1: first time a couple of weeks ago. Those are oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's pretty well. Yeah, watching a movie in there. I
Speaker 1: haven't watched the movie yet. I just like, I just
Speaker 1: I've seen a little bit of video kinds of like, oh,
Speaker 1: this would fucking ruin me. I haven't done like certain things.
Speaker 1: I'd be like you with like some good headphones on
Speaker 1: good thing I don't have one. Yeah, yeah, Greg, as
