shall we now you will be amazed at the following thing that happens watch me remember the simultaneous sip introduction
all you need is a copper bucket a copper mugger glass a tanker jealousy style a canteen yoga flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and
and join me now for the dopamine hit of the day the thing that makes everything better it's called the simultaneous sip go
all right well that was close so let's talk about all the cool things that are happening here's something that makes me happy there's an israeli food tech startup called savory eat that's making 3d printed pork patties turkeys and burgers
um youtube just keeps going on and off so
[1:03]
youtube just keeps going on and off so there's no point in continuing with that hey youtube for some reason youtube just keeps turning on and off whereas the locals platform
let's see if i can even say this long enough it's so unstable it gives me like 10 seconds shot i'm going to shut down the youtube in a moment but i wanted to tell them yeah it's done all right scott doesn't get paid today
that's what that means by the way that means that the monetization for for today's show is off not that that matters a lot but yes you did pay that's true you are now my only audience
i still have locals and that's all i need because if youtube had good technology they'd be listening to me now
[2:03]
that's why you've been waiting for finally all right so anyway this uh this is really a startup they can 3d print food and they can make meat now
now don't you think they can make something that tastes like vegetables probably probably and apparently it's you know who knows how healthy it is and how many how many chemical additives are involved in it i don't know so i'm not going to tell i'm not going to tell you it's healthy or unhealthy but i feel like this is the solution to our food problems and what i mean is food cost could you imagine could you imagine a 3d printer in your kitchen that's your only kitchen you know maybe you've got a sink and garbage and stuff but basically could you imagine only having a 3d printer it could be like a replicator um yeah it's basically it's a redneck replicator but
but you know the thing i complained about is
[3:04]
you know the thing i complained about is how many times you have to pack and unpack food you know how many times does it change hands food any kind of food before it gets on this on the shelf it goes through all kinds of processing people and distributors and wholesalers farmers and then it gets to the grocery store and then you know somebody puts on the shelf i put it in my cart my car on the thing the thing in the car the car into the counter the counter into the into yeah basically it's like probably 12 to 15 times it changes hands or goes from one place to another to stage it wouldn't you say don't you think food probably changes states meaning it's it's in a place or it's being shipped or it's being handled probably 15 times before it gets to you but imagine if the only thing you had to receive was the fuel for your 3d printer and you know once a week somebody comes with a bunch of
[4:04]
with a bunch of basically you know ink acceptance for your food and you just print all your food how awesome would that be very awesome all right jon stewart apparently fell victim to some fake news are you watching that yeah so jon stewart's been promoting the uh
uh the burn build compensation thing so the veterans who uh apparently were injured by being around these burn pits um
um john stewart is trying to get them you know health care funding and stuff and i guess that bill was defeated by the gop and john stewart said oh you guys voted for this exact bill before you guys being the republicans but now you say no but the real story the real story is it was a fake bill it had it had poison pills and then other spending they had nothing to do with it so it was a bill designed to
[5:04]
with it so it was a bill designed to screw republicans or fail it only had two states none of the states are the ones that john stewart would want where there was a clean bill and people passed it like nothing like that happened what happened was the democrats made sure that it couldn't be passed or if it did it would be bad for the country by throwing in some things that you know effectively did not get through a government process because they went through the back door
so jon stewart falling for fake news um
um and you would think he would have noticed that the news is fake
when i heard that the republicans turned down the burn bill or in other words when i heard when i heard that the gop was acting anti-veteran what was my first thought let's see i'm looking at the news and the news is telling me that republicans
[6:06]
republicans are now supportive of veterans what are the possible explanations for why this news is what it is one
one republicans have completely changed who they are overnight two it's yet another example of democrats playing that trick where they put a poison pill into a legitimate bill so that you can't vote on it like you can't possibly approve it it's just so ugly by the time you vote on it so i'm going to say that jon stewart is at least one level of awareness below me
me and probably you how many of you have the same same experience when you saw the news that the republicans had turned down some kind of thing that was good for veterans how many of you knew it was fake news as soon as you saw it yeah raise your hand all of you right pretty much everybody who watches this live stream knew that was fake news from the jump and it's always fake news in
[7:07]
the jump and it's always fake news in the same way that they threw a poison bill in there meaning they added some funding for unrelated things that republicans don't like so
so so do you do you suppose that jon stewart is not operating on a level of awareness where he understands that this is fake news
i don't know makes me wonder if jon stewart was actually fooled by the news or if he's pretending to be fooled because to make a point or something i'm not sure well let me ask you this would you say collectively that joe biden has been successful with major legislation so here's a test to you to see if you fell for fake news let's see if you fell for fake news is joe biden has he been successful in large let's say major legislation
[8:13]
well here's what cnn's take was and one opinion piece anyway um joe president joe biden has scored successes on issues such as infrastructure and gun safety so the you know you don't have to like those bills but just in terms of are they major and are they big issues yes and did he give some legislation passed that he liked apparently yes so infrastructure and gun safety now this is the democrat version right uh and the chip spill the chip spill um
um i think it moves our chip manufacturing back to the united states or promotes promotes that so that's good so those are three pretty big things and then he's got this uh major climate bill that looks like it's got a good chance of passing in the senate as well that would be pretty wouldn't that be pretty major
for one term that would be uh for
for fairly substantial bills i know i i think they can make a they could make a compelling case that
[9:14]
they could make a compelling case that he's been successful at least successful in terms of the democratic initiatives i'm not sure any of those bills are useful i have no idea if it's a waste of money or not but at least he got what he said he would get
uh chip is a fail because it doesn't help yeah most of these things have a a title of the bill that is completely misleading to what the bill is so if you look at what the bill says it is
is what we really need is some kind of truth truth and labeling don't you think we need a truth in labeling don't we yeah because these bills are all labeled the opposite of what they are and the congress makes every other product put its ingredients on the label uh you see where i'm going congress should be forced to put its ingredients on the label in other words what's in the bill including you know how if you look at the
[10:14]
you know how if you look at the ingredients on that package it will tell you the good stuff that's in it protein and vitamin d and stuff but it also tells you that how much sugar and fat
fat right so it tells you it tells you what's good and then it also in trans fat so it also tells you what will be bad for you it's right there in the package why can't congress and let me ask uh you know thomas massey or uh you know tom cotton or somebody who's you know not worthless
how many people in matt gates that's a perfect matt gates topic isn't it rand paul so so those are the ones i think would be capable right matt gates could do it could do it because he's got nothing to lose and it would be hilarious am i right matt gates could do a truth and labeling proposal because he's got nothing to lose it'll
[11:14]
because he's got nothing to lose it'll be awesome
you know he's the most dangerous politician in the country right now you know that right matt gates by far is the most dangerous in a good or bad way depending on your point of view he's the most dangerous because he can do anything now he's been moved to the category of people who are completely free there's just no there's no constraints on that guy anymore he has nothing to lose so
so if you want somebody to tell the truth in front of the country you would hire him because it looks like he's willing to do that and literally nobody else is is doing it yeah what happened with matt gates do you remember all that alleged legal trouble that matt gates was going to be in where's that do you remember that accuser never heard from her did you so so where is this witness and obviously they would have it would be easy to get digital evidence of some crime right so anything
[12:14]
evidence of some crime right so anything that matt gates did on email or whatever they probably have that already i don't see any do you see any charges do you the was the matt gage thing entirely because it looks like it it just disappeared how do things just disappear
i mean it looks to me that that was all fake anyway i'd like to see maybe a thomas massey or rand paul or matt gates or somebody who's got some you know gonads say lauren beaubert she has more balls than most of the people in congress and i don't care who it is but somebody just needs to do a uh
uh somebody needs to do some kind of a truth and labeling thing for the legislation right what is your belief about our supply chain and our ports
[13:15]
yeah those are all good names what about our supply chain and our ports
do you think they're getting better or worse i guess they got better in may and june and i told you that problem might be solved but apparently they're they're backed up again yeah the report the reporting disappeared but the reports are back up but
but um yeah it's worse it's worse on some ports there are some ports that don't seem to be terribly impacted ports owned by china that's not true is it is that true that doesn't feel true that the ports that are having trouble have some chinese ownership i don't think that's true is it that doesn't sound right all right
um here's what i wonder is it because demand is so high is our economy cooking so hard that we just can't deliver all the goods it's incompetence you think
[14:16]
yeah oh parts from china are delayed well but that wouldn't affect the unloading of the ships so i guess we've got some question about the reporting on this shipping supply chain here's the other thing i don't know don't you think that by now and this is just speculation and it's it's part of the adam's law of slow-moving disasters if you knew there was going to be a long-term supply chain backlog what ways would you adjust i feel like the ways you would adjust is you would unload the most important ships first am i right because that normally i would imagine this is just speculation i would imagine the ships get unloaded first come first serve does that make sense probably if everything is fast you just do first come first serve but if you've got an emergency and there's a backlog i feel like the most important ones probably go to the front of the line what do you think you know like if something has microchips in it don't you think that goes to the front of the line
[15:18]
goes to the front of the line perishables microchips yeah so it could be that we're not noticing the impact because if you buy some consumer good it takes two months instead of a week but you know it's some little consumer good it's a toaster you know if you buy a toaster maybe it takes a month to get it but if you buy food it seems to be there right so it could be that they're they're doing the important stuff so we don't really notice there's much difference and i don't see any reporting about you why am i the first person who is floating the notion that they may have changed their priorities at the port and completely lessened the impact on the public or they didn't which would be also a gigantic story right if the ports did nothing different and all they did is suffer the problem well i'd want to know about that wouldn't you wouldn't you want to know that they were doing nothing to help the problem so i don't know the total lack of reporting on this is
[16:18]
reporting on this is kind of interesting all right now here's a really interesting situation brewing with trump and
and murdock so my understanding is that various murdoch-owned entities they would include uh the wall street journal and uh is it which is it new york post or daily news it's the new york post which yeah new york post all right and fox news so the new york post and wall street journal have both uh at least reportedly turned to anti-trump can you confirm that that's true right and and the reporting is and i don't know how reliable this is right yeah i wouldn't assume this is totally reliable because it requires a little bit of mind rating but it sounds like the murdock family father and you know lachlan probably the ceo
ceo seem to be anti-trump and the latest reporting is that fox news is shunning trump
[17:18]
is shunning trump now
now the opinion people are still talking about him but the network is not having him on and i think it didn't cover his last speech which i don't think is a big deal because he's not in office but do you think that's true do you think fox news is going to shun trump so it yes or no i feel like it's going to be a mix you know one of the interesting things about murdock is he he does allow dissenting voices on his platforms like you know i'm not talking about slightly dissenting murdoch does allow a lot of voices on his
his network now you could argue maybe more or maybe maybe he's got his thumb on stuff but i've always noticed that have you
you yeah now full disclosure um you know i've published books under an entity at one point that was murdoch and
and yeah i've sort of been associated with
[18:19]
yeah i've sort of been associated with that whole murdoch world and
and my uh my impression was they never tried to censor me at least in the publishing wing
uh fentanyl in the distribution i don't know what that means anyway what happens if murdoch decides that trump will not be president while trump is deciding he's running and going to be president take a vote do you think that murdoch is strong enough to prevent trump from being president if let's say he had the votes you don't think so so most of you are saying we have some yeses but it looks like the majority of you maybe at least 75 percent are saying that you think trump would have more uh power than murdoch
hard to say i do think that taking trump off the major platforms would have an impact
[19:22]
you think he transcends media but you still have to see him right he's off of twitter if he if he's off on twitter and off of fox news or even reduced in fox news to like 50 how can he win
yeah because most of the country's not on twitter you know twitter is smallish if you look at the whole country
well keep an eye on that um i do think murdock could keep trump out of office so
so you know i don't think it's a binary i don't think you know you could say he definitely would or definitely wouldn't but i think i think if murdoch is absolutely set on trump not being president i think he can prevent it and what country does murdoch what is he a citizen of uh oh yeah australia australia right
[20:24]
australia right so correct me if i'm wrong but an australian will decide who's president am i wrong it looks like that's the case because i don't it seems to me that a republican can only win if the republican machine is strongly behind that candidate i would think and i don't see that the republican machine would operate unless murdoch is fully on board
yeah so i think we have another case where a foreign entity is completely controlling our outcomes
there you go why why would never talked about that you
you you never hear anybody talk about uh an australian billionaire controlling america because it kind of it kind of happened didn't it well we'll see here's a typical cnn story this is from yesterday i forgot to do it yesterday
[21:25]
yesterday i forgot to do it yesterday so here's the headline and then i'll tell you what the story is so the headline says an entire north carolina police department resigned after a black woman town manager was hired and it gets worse all of the people who resigned were white
so the entire there were only eight of them it was a small town but the entire north carolina police department resigned after a black woman town manager was hired to be their their boss basically um so that's pretty bad huh totally real news oh let's let's dig into the details also on cnn so i'm not going to any other source i'm looking at their title and now i'll look at the details um
um the evidence is that the new boss who happened to be a black woman uh made them do a whole bunch of extra work compared to what they used to do and they thought it was more than they
[22:25]
and they thought it was more than they could handle and they'll quit now the reason they quit was explicitly specific things that she was doing which even you could look at from the outside in other words a crt she was just making them do way more than their normal job basically or historically more than their normal job
job so it looked like it was just a a normal work related thing but then cnn throws in this studies show people in organ organizations often think now let's see if you agree with this racist opinion studies show people in organizations often think black women are more likely to have angry personalities with studies also suggesting that this negative perception is a unique occurrence for black women so in other words black men do not have this reputation it's black women
so that's that's what they studied so they studied if people in corporations had a negative impression
[23:26]
impression of the anger level of black women and they threw that in the story now
now so the title suggests there's racism and then the mention of the study is basically talking about racism except that the content of the story doesn't involve any racism at all it's a story about racism wrapped around a story that doesn't have any racism in it it's literally just some people quit because their boss sucked that's the only thing we know
look at that oh look at would you like me to change the sky possibly possibly i have superpowers watch this you see the sun behind me watch this expand expand
yeah i'm making the sun bigger does it feel warmer where you are a lot of people don't think i can do
[24:26]
a lot of people don't think i can do this and now
sun back to your normal size there we go there we go i can do that again sun grow
yeah let's see don lemon do that cannot do it all right so here was a question that the harvard business review didn't ask the question they did ask is do corporate people think black women in particular are angry or have angry personalities and people said yes you know what they didn't ask is there a is there a question missing or
or it seems like they they may have been doing a little uh little thinking past the sale
is there a missing study what would be the missing study that
[25:26]
what would be the missing study that would fill in the blanks would the missing study be maybe studying all the different kinds of people and asking them directly questions that would get to whether they are angry i'm just going to throw that out there suppose you just surveyed everybody and you develop some questions to determine if each group was happy or angry based on their own input so not based on anybody else's input because that would be racist but based on their own opinion of themselves what do you think you would find would you find that any group had more anger or angry personalities well i don't know i don't know and let me ask you this if there were any group in the united states that had a good reason to have some anger can you think of a group that has more like legitimate reasons to be pissed off they do now you might argue
[26:27]
now you might argue that everybody should you know feel the same and be treated the same but if you uh i would imagine if you were a black woman you have a few things to complain about overall i mean not every person we're not making any i'm not making any blanket statements about people i'm just saying that if you were to study averages and that's what this harvard business review did is study the average opinion of the corporation so we're always talking about the average right it's not about any individual um let me ask you a bunch of racists um if you've ever done telephone support calls where you call in to get tech support or customer service you've probably had the experience of getting a variety of people answering the phone do you have the racist opinion that black women who do customer service have angry personalities go how racist are you
[27:29]
lots of no's some yeses mostly no's yes is no now remember we're not talking about each person obviously each person is unique we all agree on that but do you see any patterns
no interesting so you're all over the place um i don't know here's what i think
everybody uses the power that's given to them that's a general statement you'd probably agree with right if somebody has a lot of money that's a form of power and they'd probably use it in ways that increase their power
um and and if people have let's say physical power like they're big intimidating people usually male well say you're like a big intimidating person like larry ellison or you know something like that i've heard
[28:29]
you know something like that i've heard that some large males are just physically intimidating and so that's sort of a power that they can wield over people so generally speaking when people have power they use it wouldn't you say is it fair to say that if you have a power you use it on average so one power that women have that men don't have is that they can go hard at men without worrying about um consequences now of course there's exceptions and abusive men and stuff so certainly there are women who can't complain without getting you know getting beaten up so we're not talking about that but generally in your average marriage the woman can be a total and get away with it because men will be like ugh i don't want to deal with a divorce losing my children yes she's a total there's nothing i can do about it there's absolutely nothing i can do about it then the woman says well i could be a total
[29:30]
says well i could be a total and nobody's gonna change any of my situation i'm mad so i'll be a total so generally speaking women have a power that men don't have which is a certain kind of complaining you know men can complain too but it's not going to make any difference when women complain it's more likely to have some effect right especially in relationships now
now now add on top of that
uh you know any cultural impact and it seems to me that some groups would just have more power to complain and everybody uses their power so
so you could make a case again this is just you know racist speculation probably but wouldn't you imagine that black women have the most power to complain let me just put that out there would a black woman have the most power in society
[30:30]
society to complain i would say yes because they would be considered among the most um discriminated against group you know you got your black you got your woman you put them together you you know you have a reason
to have some uh you know baby attitude so
so if somebody has a really good reason for being the way they are it shouldn't be a surprise that they're that way everybody uses the power they have if if i had the power of being able to complain about my victimhood and it got me stuff i'd probably do it if that's just the way i could get stuff now it turns out that it wouldn't work for me you know as a white guy i can complain all day about racism against me well it doesn't work so so let me say that again the only the only reason that i'm not an angry personality and i'm not complaining and bitching and abusing people every time i have a
[31:30]
abusing people every time i have a conversation because i can't get away with it that's it if i could get away with being an i probably would drift in that direction and most people would you drift in the direction of your own power so if you happen to be the group that can complain the most and other people say yeah i can see why you would complain the most well well you can understand how that situation might evolve but again if you're dealing with anecdotal evidence there's no there's no evidence that black women are more angry personalities in my opinion there's only evidence that people believe it let me say that again there's no evidence that black women are angry personalities that i'm aware of i haven't seen any study that says that this study said that people think it's true which is completely different
oh all right here's my favorite story uh there were two big game hunters lawrence
[32:31]
there were two big game hunters lawrence and bianca rudolph and they've been shooting big animals in africa for years they're both in their 60s i think but
but in 2016 they were going to try to get a leopard i guess the wife wanted to shoot a leopard and she was out hunting all day and did not shoot any leopards she shot a number of other animals but no leopard but then when they got back to the cabin when the husband was in a different room he says there was a shotgun went off and it killed the wife so she was found dead now the husband lawrence rudolph he's charged with murder but he says that you know the gun went off by accident now i haven't looked into the details of the story but here's here's how i'd have handled it first of all the top suspects would be the leopards themselves so uh there were no witnesses and we know that the leopards had a had a motive so if i were the leopards i would have tried to send his squad of leopards
[33:33]
tried to send his squad of leopards in to shoot this woman and maybe save the other leopards if i were the investigators once i came upon the crime scene probably what they did is the way they usually handle it you know they clean it up take pictures do what they can but i would have waited a week um
um just to see if the husband mounted her head on the wall because that would be evidence of intent
that's just me but you know if you found your head on the wall a week later i'd say i feel i feel like i know what happened now that explains a lot um i would like to add on top of that uh normally i do not talk about tragic situations that happen to individuals but if your hobby is shooting mammals and you get your own head blown off i don't really care i don't really care at all oh yeah if the shotgun blow was in the head then we could eliminate the husband because he wouldn't have a trophy
[34:36]
because he wouldn't have a trophy so that would be evidence too um so let me be as clear as possible if you shoot large mammals for fun i don't care what happens to you i don't care at all i don't care if he got shot in the back of the head i don't care i don't care if you suffered and died i don't care if the elephants stomp on you i don't care if the leopards eat you
you if that's your hobby it's your own problem right i don't care i've no sympathy whatsoever for bianca rudolph she can go to hell and rot uh i don't normally say that about people have tragic accidents but uh especially especially if they might have been murdered i usually don't i usually don't condemn the victim but this victim dale chicken she can rot all right that's just my opinion um how many of you think that i don't democrats and liberals want to depopulate the world
[35:41]
you think the democrats want to depopulate the world do you think bill gates wants to depopulate the world here is what i think everybody gets wrong there there's nobody smart enough to be playing at that level at the bill gates level let's say imagine the people who are at that level you think are trying to depopulate the world so in your opinion you might put bill gates there you know klaus whatever his name is schwab right so all these people but these are the well-informed elites what do you say soros yeah so you would put them in that category of people that you believe want to depopulate the world correct now how do you explain that those billionaires think that we're better off with less population but elon musk who's also very smart and a billionaire says that it's essential to have a growing population it's not just optional it's essential you need a growing population or else you're really in trouble
[36:43]
you're really in trouble so how could these other billionaires like klaus schwab and gates how could they be so wrong if if musk is right or vice versa let me tell you what i'm pretty sure is true so without without knowing i'm going to make the following assertion that musk and gates agree on population and here's what i mean by that i believe that everybody smart thinks that population has to grow to to have a healthy world let me say it again i believe that everybody above a certain level of awareness and intelligence everybody everybody 100 above a certain level of awareness understands that we need a growing population everybody below that level of awareness could be you know any opinion but above a certain level of knowledge and education everybody knows it has to grow and bill gates is above that level as is
[37:43]
and bill gates is above that level as is clef schwab as are all the elites there are no elites who think the world needs to have less population you can't find any who say that none you will find lots of people who think population growth needs bill bill maher is not somebody i would consider well informed on this topic bill maher continuously makes economic assumptions that i think are under informed i think that's his weakest weakest spot now i have a very positive opinion of bill maher as a public personality and person who talks about the news and and in my opinion with the exception of trump commentary that he's he's clearly biased that's a little bit personal but generally speaking he's telling you his actual opinion it's not
not but i don't think he has enough understanding of economics to be good in that realm so when he has an economic opinion it's
[38:44]
so when he has an economic opinion it's generally not one i would look to now if you put bill maher in the room with either elon musk or bill gates do you think that bill maher is operating at the same level of awareness and understanding of the world i don't i don't think it's even close yeah if you did an economics test of bill maher versus bill gates let's say it's just a standardized test understanding economic principles bill gates would get every question right like every question he would understand everything about economics at least that would be put on the test bill maher would get a he'd probably get a 75 75 right but that 25 percent he missed is a big deal you know and that's the part i seem to notice when when he's got a gap in his understanding so yes there are some people at a lower level of understanding the world who think that we might be better off with fewer people but what the thing that you're
[39:46]
but what the thing that you're conflating that makes you think that the smart people who understand economics are also agreeing with bill maher here's what's confusing you they do want to control the population they do so bill gates definitely wants individuals to have control over their own reproduction which might have the effect of lessening it in some places so they want people to control it but there's no way that bill gates wants the population of the world to shrink would anybody like to make a bet on that would anybody like to make a bet that you will never see a bill gates quote and that none exists there's no bill gates quote about reducing the population of the whole world
so you'll take that back now remember the bet is that the bet is that you believe he wants fewer people i'm saying he wants the the growth rate
[40:47]
growth rate to be more managed so so so he wants more but at a more manageable way and you know that it makes sense for the country right
yeah all right um
um yes and bill maher doesn't understand how technology will improve resource management and musk does that is exactly correct exactly right um
yeah i know i know it causes a lot of trouble when i defend bill gates but but keep in mind that i don't defend bill gates for a love of bill gates whatever he's done in his personal or professional life yeah that's up to him to explain that's not up to me what i what i try to work on is how we think about it so i'm not defending bill gates i'm defending um accurate thinking and i believe that accurate thinking says there's no evidence that anybody as smart as him
[41:47]
smart as him would ever be on the side of population reduction so let me generalize it i'm going to generalize it from the bill gates because he just he confuses the question because you have so many opinions about him
him nobody nobody who understands economics and technology let's put it that way nobody has a good understanding of both economics and technology believes that the population should be reduced find me one example and i'll change my mind it's got somebody prominent that you could clearly say okay this person does understand economics and does understand business does understand people you know does understand all that killer well hitler's not ex if hitler's the best example you have
well let me correct you hitler did not hitler did not believe in population reduction he he believed in reducing some kind of people and increasing the kind of people he is so even hitler isn't a good example
[42:48]
example and even and china is an example of controlled population china wasn't trying to uh was trying to not have runaway population growth but they didn't want it to be negative too hard right they wanted to slow it until they could handle it which is what they did so now they've increased the number of kids you can have so
so yeah they and and by china reducing their uh their growth rate they may have killed themselves in the long run because they've got this demographic bomb though now do you understand why you have to have more people because you can't have a growing number of old people who don't work and a shrinking number of new people who do
do that that leads you to a bad situation
yeah yeah japan has that problem too so we don't want the problem of japan and of china but the united states never had an
[43:49]
but the united states never had an overpopulation problem so we didn't have to deal with that yeah i do think more old people work that is part of the solution definitely all right um do you think china will shoot down pelosi's plane
uh gordon chang gordon chang thinks it's possible where he said that it's not possible yeah um i i'm the biggest china hawk probably that you've ever seen and even i don't think they'll shoot down nancy pelosi's jet
all right uh yeah i don't think that's happened i'm not gonna worry about it
all right that is the slow news day news
do you have any interesting questions does it look like africa yes i'm intentionally obscuring my face like a
[44:52]
intentionally obscuring my face like a like a witness protection
have i ever talked to penn gillette about trump
um i i didn't get to meet and talk to penn gillette i don't think we ever talked about trump no
gym encounter i did not see your post about a gym encounter
uh russell brandt oh i i did give russell brand's producer some uh dates for scheduling but i haven't heard back or at least i have to check back oh i forgot about co biden getting covered the second times if if you're keeping score
biden has four vaccinations and two covent infections so the score is uh vaccinations four covet two but i think covet can come from behind
[45:53]
but i think covet can come from behind and maybe maybe soon we'll have more infections than there are vaccinations
now how many of you uh accept the following logic that if the vaccinations and youtube if you're watching don't cancel me over this wait until i get to the end and you'll be happy how many people think the following logic holds and it goes like this if the vaccinations don't stop you from getting it and they don't stop you from getting it a second time um
um and it doesn't stop you from transmitting it then it doesn't work yes or no if it doesn't stop you from getting it doesn't stop you from transmitting it
somebody says not as a vaccine okay fair enough define work okay you know you really this this group is i
[46:56]
you know you really this this group is i think the most sophisticated audience watching the news honestly because i i thought there would be a few more of you agreeing with that and it makes no sense right if you know that it's reducing the severity of infection then you would have to make an argument that the the side effects from the vaccination are worse than however much it saves you now i don't know if that's true now if you said to me i don't believe the studies and i don't believe that you're reducing more more problem than you're causing with any side effects i don't know that we can believe that
oh they think did i ask the question wrong so it looks like they're agreeing to the wrong thing maybe
well the discussion that matters is long covered and whether the vaccination anecdotal information is telling you i think all right here's a question i asked just before i got on and we'll see how they i did a little poll
[47:57]
did a little poll let's see how it did so we'll see how you do on this poll so i did this just before i got out here so i didn't see any answers yet
so i said this what does it mean when they're what does it mean so you get to interpret this what does it mean when there's a mountain of anecdotal evidence on twitter that shots the vaccination shots allegedly caused dozens of different medical problems now here's the important part not medical problems but dozens of different ones so if you were a doctor how would you process that it's anecdotal so it's not a study but there seemed to be a lot of them on twitter anyway but of course twitter is everybody in the world so you know there are a lot of people that they could notice um do you think do you think they've seen that there are dozens of different medical problems that people are associating with the
[48:58]
that people are associating with the shot whether it's proven or not people are saying that is it a red flag for danger that there are so many reports would you say it's near proof of danger you've seen so many of them that in your mind is nearly proof not just a red flag or do you think it's more evidence of a probable mass hysteria or do you think that it's literally nothing that that the fact that there are lots of anecdotal reports uh one of the answers could be that it literally means nothing because anecdotal is just anecdotal which which of those would you say it's a red flag for danger it's near proof of danger probable mass hysteria or literally nothing go
go danger noise uh red flag nothing nothing nothing uh
uh only one person said only a few of you are saying hysteria okay
so most of you are saying either nothing or a red flag
[50:00]
or a red flag you know my ques i realize my question sucks because something could be nothing in a red flag at the same time can it right it can be nothing and also a red flag so i so i'm going to add together the red flag for danger and the literally nothings and that would be 78 percent of the people answered it and i think that would be it's correct to put the red flag and the literally nothing together because you've literally proven nothing but it can still be a red flag of something to look for right only 10 said probable mass hysteria and that is my vote my vote is probable mass hysteria
do you know why a mass hysteria works because only 10 percent of the people recognize it
that's what this is exactly what it looks like when i here was the uh here should have been the tip off
[51:00]
been the tip off the mass hysteria is the probable explanation there are too many medical problems being attributed to the vaccinations if you told me there are three medical problems that we're seeing all over the place it's the same three then i say whoa that's a red flag not proof not near just proof red flag look into it but if you tell me that there are dozens and dozens of different medical problems after the shots immediately my mind says that's more that's closer to the arc of a mass hysteria but it could be complicated because it could be a red flag plus a mass hysteria it could be both because within the dozens and dozens of medical problems people are reporting there are some that are dominant right the myocardial digest the although the myocarditis usually clears up but let's say fertility
[52:01]
but let's say fertility you know some impact on that there probably is a top three that you really should worry about uh in terms of a red flag not in terms of proof we don't have that but to me this looks like at least at least half mass hysteria so whether or not the vaccinations so let me summarize this as cleanly as possible because it's easy to get mischaracterized when you do this kind of topic my opinion is it's probably a mix all these anecdotal reports are probably a mix of real red flags meaning you really ought to take it seriously but most of it is mass hysteria and easily identifiable as so easily identifiable in my opinion the mass hysteria part's obvious right which does not mean you're wrong okay can you handle that nuance if i tell you that most of what you're seeing in the anecdotal reports are just mass hysteria
[53:02]
mass hysteria can you accept that that could be true at the same time at the same time there might be enough of these reports that are true that you need to take it seriously right but i figure probably there are only a few conditions that look credible and probably there are a whole bunch of other things that are just coincidence and that's the coincidence part is the mass hysteria part how do you identify mass hysteria um the clue is how many different explanations or or problems there are
the camera in a terrible mode because i've got this injury on my lip that looks like monkey pox but isn't no it's not a herpes or i know you're gonna say that i literally burned myself very badly in my lip
um is robert malone correct
[54:02]
malone correct i doubt it if i had to place a bet on dr malone being correct on let's say most of his biggest claims i bet against him and i'd feel pretty confident about that if you said against everything that malone says that's different from what the mainstream says i wouldn't take that back i i would i would agree with you it's almost certainly true that some of the things malone is saying are valid but i think he goes too far
um i call him rogue to discredit him yeah i do call the rogue doctors rogue to discredit them but what i'm doing is discrediting i'm discrediting the category for your benefit so if i take a specific doctor and say that uh they're presenting themselves as a rogue doctor i do mean i do mean intentionally for you to reduce your belief in them
[55:02]
belief in them that's the point doesn't mean they're wrong if you take that as i believe that my medical information is better than theirs and you should treat them as wrong that's not what i'm saying i'm saying that if you don't if you're not a doctor and you can't check it yourself and the only thing you know is that there's a rogue doctor who differs from the mainstream you're probably bet on the mainstream the smart money says the mainstream is right not the rogue doctor you only think the rogue doctors are credible because you only hear about the ones that got it right
uh follow the money scott doctors have little or nothing to gain really really you don't think dr malone got some speaking the invitations you don't think he monetized that
you know the other thing you have to look at is that malone presents himself as a narcissist and i'm not going to say that's bad
[56:03]
and i'm not going to say that's bad because i am one and there are two types one type of narcissist wants to just destroy everything you know destroy their social situation the other kind just likes to get credit for doing good stuff in my opinion malone looks like a narcissist meaning that his payoff is having people believe he was right all along and that that would be worth any economic degradation that he they experienced so if he's financially secure then his payoff would be what they call the fuel people saying you're right malone you were right all along now if it turns out later that he's right he'll make a fortune do you get that if you say well he he sacrificed so much to be a rogue i say no he invested so much to be a rogue if his if his investment pays off and it turns out he's right
[57:04]
turns out he's right he's gonna have like a speaking career books he will make i would say the value of dr malone being right in the end if it turns out that way
way would probably be 20 million dollars if i had to monetize the value of him being right in the end it would be about 20 million dollars because he'd sell a book they'd go on the speaking circuit and he probably i don't know if he practices but if he practices medicine all the smart people would say i'm going to go to you because you've got everything right does that make him wrong no i don't know if he's right or wrong how would i know so i can't give you an opinion whether he's right or wrong i can tell you what it looks like he's in the category that's usually wrong doesn't mean he's wrong but he's in a category that's usually wrong and he acts like he presents himself as a narcissist again that's subjective but i've seen enough of them and it takes one to no one right like nobody's
[58:05]
takes one to no one right like nobody's more narcissistic than i am but i'm also transparent i'm transparent in the sense that if i don't do something that's worthwhile to you
you well i don't want any credit but if i do and i do something that helps yeah i'd like you to mention it because that would feel good to me and maybe i'll do some more stuff for you it just works it's just a virtuous cycle i give you something you give me something that i want i want different stuff than you want that's a perfect situation if we wanted the same stuff it might be a problem but if but if i want credit and you want some benefit that i can help you get well we both win that's cool so i don't i don't care that he's he might in my opinion have that personality trait that i have that part's fine
how is that not mind reading that is statistical assumptions short of mind reading mind reading would say i know what he's
[59:05]
mind reading would say i know what he's thinking i don't say that i say to me he looks like me
me so if i were to say well if he looks like me he's probably like me that's my speculation so i always put anything that is somebody else's thoughts into the speculative road using rogue is persuasion yes i am intentionally persuading you to think that he's less credible that he presents himself i'm not i'm not i'm not trying not to do that i'm doing that very intentionally very openly i am i'm trying to encourage you to put less credibility on anybody who differs from the mainstream in a way you want to hear maybe that's the thing i should have said all right here's the better way to say i finally figured out how to say this this took me forever i finally figured out how to communicate this don't believe people who are a little too close to what you want to be true
[1:00:08]
want to be true those are the least credible people if they disagree with the mainstream if you disagree with the mainstream and it's exactly what you wanted to hear it's right on the nose the odds of that being true or low or low
it doesn't mean he's not right but the odds are low here's god describes himself being a yeah that's exactly true so somebody says that i'm describing myself let's see if that's true uh i disagree with the mainstream and i tell you things often they're exactly what you want to hear yeah that's true that's true so
so what i do in public is i make predictions and statements and then you get to test them so you'll get to see if it's true like anything that i tell you usually you just get to see for yourself right so if i told you that you know biden would be problematic as a president
[1:01:10]
would be problematic as a president well you get to say yourself was i right or was i wrong and and i keep score you know i i literally gave myself a score card after the pandemic here's what i said here's how it turned out and i included the things i got wrong now if malone does that let's say five years from now and we've got a better idea everything else if malone does that and says here's the stuff i said i got a couple things wrong but here are the things i got right instantly he would go right to the top of my credibility list right
he would go right to the top of my credibility list if he kept track of his own statements and how he got them right or wrong and then you know gave you an honest accounting at the end then then then i would write lift them up a little bit
malone is clearly right on myocarditis as the cdc data is showing the trend now
[1:02:11]
as the cdc data is showing the trend now he might be right in that but the myocarditis as i understand it clears up and that um
uh yeah so the myocardius is not so much a question of whether you get it because i think we've known that for a long time it's a question of whether how bad that is in the long run makes a difference to you compared to any protection you get from the shop
cardiac cells can't repair i don't think it's a cardiac cell problem
but covet also causes myocarditis somebody says right
i'm afraid of longer but my but myocarditis no biggie
[1:03:11]
um isn't myocarditis part of long covert i'd put that in the same category right if you get if you get some kind of condition
there are cardiac stem cells so i think the doctor is telling us that the heart can repair itself
what is the definition of long covet yeah that's a good question in my opinion it's anything that um continues to bother you after you had a covenant that's related to the covenant so i would think that if he had myocarditis and it was it lasted i don't even know if that could happen can myocarditis just continue i don't know
about anything that bothers you after i would call long covet whether it's temporary or permanent
do folks in upstate new york haunted deer yes they do yeah my parents were hunters
[1:04:12]
yeah my parents were hunters they both were deer hunters
you know i do have a different opinion of people who eat the meat and you know in in upstate new york you could make an argument for conservation i mean it's kind of a crazy argument you have to shoot the deer to protect the deer but there really would be too many deer that's there's no joke if the deer were not somehow population controlled and i'm not saying that's the best way to do it but
but uh
uh there would be yeah either you'd have to introduce wolves and then you're still killing deer yeah there's no right answer there's no right answer but at least if you're eating the venison and we did i ate a lot of medicine but if you eat the venison it's at least not as ethically disgusting
[1:05:19]
reintroducing wolves to yellowstone fixed deer will destroy a place yeah the deer will eat your crops
all right i think that's all for now i believe we've done our job i believe that i will talk to you tomorrow
