Transcript

0:00 Welcome to episode 1666. There can be only one. That was you. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. they probably made him grow his hair first. Probably kept him in a tunnel But that was just an odd. from china oh god oh god we gotta get in let's do our apologies to china i need to learn mandarin It's a mystery. But he's wearing a Pikachu medallion. This is a breakdown.

4:27 they're not taking this sort of cultural shift seriously. And to see that guy saying it in Chinese and you read what he actually said, country exists that's essentially what it was right weird to see an apology for just saying that a country exists that's that's not how it works anymore now it's know, if you get your technology into another country, if you become the supplier of a lot of their pharmaceuticals, if you all these things, then you don't really need to invade.

7:12 Woo! where you're just scanning Twitter It's like the guy's like i'm We have no money. So we have to have a certain amount of money. And one of the things that became abundantly clear Like out here, the grid went out for a whole fucking week, man. Most people forget. like how much do I use my phone? because they work on like, anything in America because we caught them doing stuff with like, uh, routers or some shit. I don't

11:59 the president with some kind of like gift from russia i think he hung it up on a wall or something their English was kind of fucked up. especially when I'm recording an intro for the podcast. or your mom's got the biggest dick, and now you've got like a I mean, what they're doing with the Internet Research Agency, or at least what they were doing prior to 2016,

15:06 hundreds of thousands of memes, and a lot of them were really funny. or they would switch it over to Black Lives Matter, or they'd switch it over to LBGTQ page, and they would just get a bunch of followers and then just use those followers. So they got the two of them on catty corner streets. And that cat, he looks at that cat. Yeah. Because we think there's no way any normal group of people could do that it's got to

18:06 Where they used to study the exact virus. And you know that if you engineer this thing, well, but we're assuming they got sick from that lab. i mean this is again like to me that's the part that's like a little daunting and we are you know okay politicians for example they're the best like they'll say a speech but it's off whatever the fuck it's like trying to express connectivity to it's like it doesn't understand

21:17 Are you really interacting with your constituents? So also you are thinking like, getting the ear of the politician. And then it's evolved from there. You know it's a weird one right yeah, yeah, how do you? What's to stop you from making a language that goes along with a video game? I watched the Stanford professor that you had like an absolutely super well-respected,

25:18 Oh, I don't know yeah He was teaching a lecture on toxoplasmosis. Do you know the whole story behind the parasite? And it also simultaneously removes their fear. Oh my god, that would be I got to get to the bears. Because that just seems – if we're designing the simulator, that's a funny thing we do as a joke. I'm sorry. No, it reproduces way no it didn't work that way how many thousands of times does a rat have to get eaten by the cat

29:12 genes and why they express themselves and certain uh evolutionary traits that are beneficial to see things generally spreads almost like a virus as much as it spreads like information that's right with the child's development it's uh related to uh decrease in iq uh increase in um uh impulsive they would come in and there was a disproportionate amount of motorcycle accidents that have toxoplasmosis in their system when they would test them.

31:42 Yeah, countries with successful soccer teams generally have a higher rate of toxo. It's overrepresented among people with only elementary education. Oh, sorry. But that is fucking fascinating that a bug figures out a way to get a rat horny and get And people gathering together, you know, when it was soaring, just gathering together as but it's pressure that's just pressure you know like some some people just can't handle the

34:38 We don't know what the fuck it does. I'm not, okay. side effects you tell me they wouldn't do it isn't that what advertising is they would do it isn't mutate in the way evolution happens similarly with language and with data we aren't at the place yet where we acknowledge that that data is as much of a drug or a virus as anything else as something of, it's more of a living thing.

37:51 Like, here's a table. on your neighbors but what is that what is going on there well right we all the That's why we moan and we talk about materialism and how fucking shallow the world is. You'd probably send me a message. And these things have weaseled their way into our And it's like beautiful, beautiful computers that I don't need at all. today was their big keynote thing but every once in a while the wizards show behold the news come

41:22 Two multiverses away. but only as long as you have battery life. Because in real life, you have to make the swap. You really can change what you are you want to experience life in poverty, humans in there that's so beautiful and i'm gonna butcher it but it's essentially like fucking phones uh that is the thing that's pushing us towards that point that that and that there's

44:58 it's happening and and and the and all this stuff that's causing all this fucking turmoil in society Imagine if tomorrow anyone who wants to Oh, that's amazing. So what app did app did you learn right you learned it easy you know oh you're you're such a tenancy you've become so It's like burned into our system, and we think it's definitely positive the things that are hard to do make you a better person

47:30 When they want you to know, and I think we've all been guilty of it, and I know I've been interesting shit and it's one of the things that i love most about comics because i know the Do we want someone to fucking have to run marathons for 10 years to be a better person? Additional attention that they don't really deserve yeah What are you doing? Give me a break.

50:04 Yeah. Imagine if you can just come along and fix that. That download. other league they're all 14 but they didn't download so that now they're like 50 times better than any living baseball player watching them is like watching some kind of like psychedelic less than 600 miles per hour. wouldn't work which is coming the the the new vaccines are part of that but the thing that's

53:09 Fucking inject it in me. when it gets to just like, you know, manipulating genes that didn't that was a thought before now it's a real practice and they've Yeah. This guy got smarter. Yeah, he got in trouble. give them protection online we are now this is literally the set you I don't necessarily understand how they could just make that leap. You're like, but they're smarter.

56:51 Exactly. Oh, I love CRISper babies in the morning. Like, you know, if you look at, you know, what they're saying about not just the Wuhan laboratory, but like, did I just say laboratory? happened in galveston right that's what they were looking at the idea being okay here like well which No, we just went to this creepy place where there was a creepy only because there's like

58:53 We were sitting there talking for so long. Oh, wow. avian bird flu right so if you're like in one of these labs you need to study it but you got to So that if it does come, if the demon comes out of hell, we know the spell is to cast. you summon it in a sealed chamber of Lornax. Yep. Well, no. for gain of function research oh i get it okay okay no no no i get the argument for it it's i

1:02:34 Wait, I thought it meant it only killed 100% of mice. It's like if you go back throughout humanity, And for sure, because of plagues, the human race probably got dropped down to multiple times, no one listened yeah okay so 2018 like, hey, what the fuck? Toba. the sky becomes black with soot as this volcano bursts fire into the sky and it drowns out all the sun, kills all the plants.

1:04:55 You don't understand history. propaganda mechanism is every once in a while they would just admit they're like we don't know It doesn't matter. 70 people? what they think? That's what the... One of the About 14,000 years ago, humans crossed the Bering land bridge from Siberia to North America. Like, people think that some folks, like colonists, believe that people came here across the Bering

1:07:17 They don't really know, right? I like the Graham Hancock version of it way better. The short-faced bear makes a grizzly bear look like a koala bear. the biggest of all the bear species. that in that range of like when the Ice Age ends, number one yeah but we figured out how to survive and they didn't have enough food they're so I'm better with you.

1:09:51 How long was I living at your house? I loved having you at my house. and i've tasted her milk it's sweet whatever she's doing is right because she makes very sweet Joe, why did you let it go? I can't even fucking decorate. And then all of a sudden I have, like like weird, intense, aesthetic opinions that I've never had before. It's like I'm basing this on nothing

1:12:20 It'll be a hodgepodge of imagery and here's one thing that me and my wife don't get along, don't agree with rather. I've always been obsessed with that. Well, you were a monkey at some point, too. look again that's like my own obviously that's my own sense And she became a very famous Egyptologist. I was there. Stop being such a c yeah yeah exactly but you know it is the

1:15:09 whether it's like religious imagery or whether it's a style of literature it it appears in these specific ways and one of them looks like that imagery you know it's just And from the top of their head, the peak of their head, and you can pretend and maybe you have a little bit of luck and maybe you have some like genetic gifts for certain things. They knew I used my phone more than I say I do.

1:17:51 It wasn't very big. He was upsetting me, and I remember I just grabbed that would make bread and we'd go with my grandfather all the time to get bread. I was like five years old. Yeah. thinking like oh yeah i'm that's me i'm that regret and so in that is the that's how you become a person as you start you know picking out the loudest aspects you focus on that yeah

1:19:57 critique of what lots of people are doing or i think it's a drug dealer looking to launder money That's what fucking art is. one a week i get a little bit of trouble yeah you get you get every time i'm on fucking twitter it's like I'm so sorry. Yeah. completely lack compassion yeah and as a person who's been the subject of it it's it's fascinating occasionally you learn some really interesting stuff sure you see a funny meme someone informs

1:22:55 It's so bad for the people that are slinging that shit. You're just thinking about it all day long. the dalai lama speak in anaheim and one of the things how long ago long time ago i was on mushrooms It's just so in the moment and they don't know you, number one, bouncing to you and in you know you have a choice to react to it as though or real and if you do you become solid enough to bounce it onto somebody else or

1:25:36 talk which is like one of the most ultimate louis ck things to say like people have always just like I'm like, bro, this is not good for you. We show them Paw Patrol. Suddenly, she's like, let's just do Paw Patrol. We show him Paw Patrol. He's in Paw Patrol now. archers of pain out there we're not talking about a shotgun scanner. That's perfect. You got me.

1:28:07 I'm going to fucking do between... The confusion is – I think surrounds what the nature of human identity really is. literally so ashamed of it that you don't want to look at it yourself so that's called active ignoring and you see it in someone else. It's in the government. What happens if you stop ignoring it and just not just like look at it like it's separate from you.

1:31:11 you start looking at the entirety of what you are you stop focusing on the Hawaii side and give some And then when I'm trying on clothes, I see it in the mirror and I'm like, oh, my God. everybody do you can i ask you this do you think that there's a there's something that's happening How the fuck could you do this on MTV? hitting your cousin in the head with a bag of cookies like why do you think about yourself like that what is it

1:33:59 So many people like you. of like the thing here it's and this is not to say so therefore we don't improve but the idea is like in the process of getting better i don't know if you ever run into those people there they've been Are you there because you just got kicked out of your parents' house Yes, and the invitation here is instead of coming to that conclusion,

1:36:42 the first step is like and then in that intense shame and guilt, how are you going to treat people around you? By the way, when you can just casually say my guru, that's what my guru, Nim Kuruli Baba, said. My guru, Nim Kuruli Baba. After the one minute, you can go back to whipping yourself with the fucking belt of your mind because you didn't make the right choices or you're a bad

1:38:29 You know, man, And when I'm feeling good, In fact, you've been invited to the most incredible academy that ever was in the form that you've been invited to it to it in and the situation I got on Ambien. want to sleep it's like a disassociative it's like you teleport from when you you close your eyes and a temple in bhutan so like i was like i look at my phone and i was just calling this fucking

1:41:05 Yeah. I'm addicted to cannabis. I think probably what happened is I was one of many And the children just eat it up, eat it up. And because of that, they secretly think they're just abject failures. football together yeah let's have a little armistice and for a second like just give yourself you've been subjecting yourself to because you know that's it that's going to be a great 30 minutes yeah and if you can do that you'll probably have this inclination towards like

1:44:56 Yeah, it's not fucking Marxism. You got to watch the video. Entirely negative. That was horrible. I didn't think that was the case. That's way into it. Why did he tase her like that? Talk about how you got naked at the Outback Steakhouse. They need mental health counselors, not police to do that kind of work. I agree with that better. She was throwing bottles at him.

1:48:08 Call Brian Casey. That's the move. Yeah. That was a bad swipe. They should have their watermark on that bar. Oh, my God. You got to invest. anonymous accuses Elon Musk of destroying lives. Exactly. within five days or something. They attacked the gas supply. Think of what would have happened if the power grid collapsed. Exactly. He had the number of guns like a general in Eastern Europe would need. That many guns he had he had like the number of guns like like a general in like eastern europe would

1:53:09 People have obviously been using computers. But what about in 20 years? Just everyone dead. Well, you know, I had a bit about that. What? It's so good. I can't get through some Black Mirror episodes. I got a piece so bad. Yeah, Watch it again. That watching that made me so nervous I couldn't finish it. It's so good. That's right. Yeah, we had two shows today.

1:55:12 I'm adding that to it. They can go up to, but that's a driver head, a long time ago And he said, like, do you feel the pull? Like, you feel this this i don't know because to me when i look at it i think that seems like something you should have to pay people to do The thing I've got onto right now is that it's you versus nature. Yeah, that's all inside. So it's you versus yourself more than that.

1:57:20 golf? Yeah, he just started bringing it up, so hey. I'm getting a pool table installed here soon, but I've been avoiding pool. yeah where it's like I gotta protect the tribe I gotta you get locked into these goddamn games I'm too dumb. If you and I were sitting in front of two monitors, but drinking beer and talking shit for four or five hours. They won't let you play.

1:59:40 right when you're a scorer, you're going to be like banned from the course. at golf shops, I have made love to. Nothing. A sentence that's never been said but like some people love it but movie it is but i think i'm thinking of the wrong movie. Thank you. Waterworld sucks, but that fucking show at Universal they do? Are you kidding? The Postman. That's not my point my point is like like

2:02:32 I have friends that worked on Waterworld. That's what they say about Fear Factor. You know about the imposter Blippi? I really do love Blippi. In the same way we the left gotten there was some controversy because the blippy on the left started doing tours saying The popular kid's entertainer previously involved in a poop video scandal. The aliens are hovering and then plunging into the ocean.

2:04:41 You want to make sure you pull it out of the oven at the exact time. They're not done yet. Right there. It's the scandal repeats itself. that what's that that's what I like I think it's really like of all the crazy It was that video. Oh my god. I was willing to go to bat for him until he just shit all over his friend like Some things should be illegal.

2:07:52 You can't shit in your friend's asshole. then get that disease from humans eating other' spinal tissue and brain matter, right? So nature has some like built-in fail-safes to keep you from eating your friends Who hasn't been a kid? There was a sense of, like, we are going to see the hand of justice in the world. But not in this case. Like, what about the novelty of the moment?

2:10:59 Jake Paul's like three feet taller than him. There was Mauro. and there was one other gentleman. If there was an optional stream, we could listen to like Teddy Atlas. No, no, I get it. and putting pressure on him and moving putting pressure on him and after the third and fourth It's amazing. he's not the greatest because that's subjective but in my opinion he's the greatest the reason

2:14:21 Yeah. Get the fuck out of here. He went for an overhook. Watch how this happens again. He's in control. And he said he was really fucking good. You stop talking about fighting. I think it shows Logan Paul, for whatever reason, Well, anyway, you know what? So now you're watching Logan Paul in some symphony doing the most incredible thing. don't have any inherent advantages anymore.

2:17:50 people relied on their physical talents and didn't learn the technique as as like cleanly as the learn and grow but joe this is what we were talking about earlier here's the problem what Oh, cool. What? always internal. Like almost always. Like the thought process behind it is always my own Yes. weakness to embrace this resistance against the ultimate it's a weakness to to hype up

2:21:10 No, but there's some, no, they don't get mad. so there's this idea of like um it's samsara and nirvana uh like in other words like confusion two things go hand in hand. My friend And like right away, I was in danger. Then one time I rolled with him and all of a sudden I'm in deep shit. But he got way better. Yes. And I know it happens because I thought,

2:24:17 It gets dumber and dumber. So many. Look at this. That's meta. My worry is that it's meta. Sunglasses are a dead giveaway, it feels like. He ran out of videos, man. But at the end of the day, there's a lot of those videos. years that is the best way to convey the ideas and then there's also people like us who just Oh, wow. milton mccrory i mean emmanuel stewart lennox lewis emmanuel stewart is a legend wasn't really

2:27:57 People have genetic advantages. I never want to do it. I've become a production company, young Jamie. No, they won't let me have it. soon pull it up you should sell t-shirts on your website that say give jamie back pull that up Solid move. you know who they are. I was like, shit on his friend's asshole? I, thinking about what would come, I never thought,

2:31:16 being me it's not it seems hard to do but it's just because it's hard to do You just said you had. and whatever's stopping you from being yourself, You don't understand that's how it reached more people i'm like you don't understand What a terrifying predicament to find yourself in. Trying to find a way to make a living. Cancel culture reacts differently on different individuals

2:34:01 if their their mortgage depends on it yeah you know it's like it's all set up in a weird way. know yeah and this is what we're doing right right? And while we're doing this thing, we got to acknowledge that it's a weird touch and go situation. But the idea is like you're not suppressing. You're not stuck to it is all. You don't know how any conversation is going to take place.

2:36:24 depending upon a lot of factors. Maybe you got a ticket on the way over there you know maybe you haven't slept but they're a little confused. I know you don't believe this, but I do, The problem with like right now, the problem is like people are getting confused regarding their identity. You know what I mean? that are fucking with society, and and i don't think either one of them are absolute right look i mean i like the whole

2:39:44 could be wrong. Jamie, please look it up. So I don't's called a holon. Really? Yeah, H-O-L-O-N. Could be wrong. God, I hope I'm not wrong. simultaneously so this is called relative reality and absolute reality. M-theory. Yeah. who became that you know a abused person in a shelter at 14 who became that kid on the street people that got here somehow or another they got fucked over but i think you if you really

2:42:43 Put your tent down. like so brutal because like on one side you have like the most incredible the stuff that like the the heart of christ the deepest compassion which is like you are me when you know jesus says love You know what I mean? One of the Dalai Lama's best friends. It's not like I'm looking at you and thinking, God, what if I was in in that person's shoes it's like you're looking at them and thinking that's me i'm looking

2:45:27 But really what happened is they clicked into that reality and couldn't click back out. Right? And maybe you'd be able to calm them down. There's a little dance they do. If you were them, but it's hard for us. through all those things and the key is recognizing that at the core of who you are is the same thing I'm going to vote for the second of those three possibilities.

2:49:04 So it's like what's that thing I think Voltaire said? they've put a lot of energy into a really horrific mode of existence broken and numb but they don't want to say it out loud do you know what it's like what if if you You got to kind of remember it backwards. Ever. I don't give a fuck if that lady has that goddamn map. One of them is called Sharon Salzberg.

2:51:42 It's the most glorious reunion with a you that you forgot even existed the moment No. I'm a hack. You can look at that. But that doesn't mean you're like, so go in the cockpit. i think all this is dependent like the reason why these conflicts exist like what you're just Joe Rogan said, pretend that that dude's the same as you, Duncan, when are the UFOs landing?

2:55:09 You'd get real nervous, man. is it transcends all that shit. you don't know anything about the ufo What is it? Thank you. including the best weapon system That? Yeah. It was just like, he went face to face with it. He used to do it for MIT and he runs, in this explanation of this the weapon So a lot of people, they see these fucking videos that have been verified by the Pentagon

2:59:09 at night you know miles away good job of this there's a one guy that jeremy corbell sent me and uh this guy does a really Listen, man, people love to believe, whether they believe this way or that way. is delusional people a lot of this banana stuff dude this is banana stuff, dude. It could be an Android. whether it's radar or any communications from something else,

3:01:41 So what do we do there? Thank you. And we'll start our once a week show in September. Yes. Come back once a month. And they kicked him off Airbnb. He'll find a way. We got to stop Airbnb. Ladies and gentlemen,
