1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,780
welcome welcome welcome welcome to to to everything's an argument i'm your host

2
00:00:11,780 --> 00:00:16,600
Medus and my shadow echo is

3
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:21,220
echo came before the word

4
00:00:21,220 --> 00:00:27,660
we're a show where we talk about things yeah oh uh that's one of the little tricks i used to use

5
00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:34,800
when i was doing like creepy voices tricks and the uh audio audio drama i used to do meet us pod

6
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:40,880
geez you cut that intro off really quickly i hated that oh i'm sorry yeah do we are we starting it

7
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:47,660
again all right we're still talking that's cool in the intro uh i used to use that as a i'm just

8
00:00:47,660 --> 00:00:51,660
gonna get back into the mode here used to use that as a trick i would i would take something

9
00:00:51,660 --> 00:00:57,220
that's needed to sound creepy and then i would reverse it and i would add echo while it was

10
00:00:57,220 --> 00:01:05,500
reversed and then flip it back and it would do this really neat uh effect where the you could

11
00:01:05,500 --> 00:01:11,480
hear the word and starting before it started it was really neat yeah the common little trick used

12
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:18,000
in in audio editing cool but uh yeah so we're a show we do we talk about stuff stuff that makes you

13
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,740
think that makes us think stuff that make us mad and we want to argue about it we come from different

14
00:01:22,740 --> 00:01:27,640
backgrounds and we want to hear each other's opinions well i kind of came from his background

15
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:34,760
but he also came from a different background so it'd be okay uh i'm just a lot older than you i think

16
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:41,160
is yeah nothing's really happened in our life since last time we recorded no no we normally don't hear

17
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:46,420
but we didn't really do anything not my wrist really hurts because i i twisted or something yeah you

18
00:01:46,420 --> 00:01:51,040
i think you probably slept on it wrong or something well it happens it's been like this for like three

19
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,080
days i don't think it's like oh yeah that's true that's true who knows maybe you got the carpet

20
00:01:55,080 --> 00:02:00,720
carpet tunnels no but we'll figure it out i pulled something like my pinky and carpal tunnel is usually

21
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,660
in your first four fingers yeah so you got this like big huge wrist strap on it and it's hilarious

22
00:02:04,660 --> 00:02:09,220
i do it's funny people are always like what happened to your arm i'm like i don't know i don't know

23
00:02:09,220 --> 00:02:12,940
and they're like what do you mean you don't know and i'm like i don't know it could have been one of

24
00:02:12,940 --> 00:02:17,240
nine different things i have a very interesting life i do actually

25
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:24,740
so many injuries so valley for valley for this episode yeah yeah skip the life update nothing

26
00:02:24,740 --> 00:02:29,740
going on yeah i watched a bunch of crappy movies this week um so we're we're a value for value

27
00:02:29,740 --> 00:02:35,320
podcast that means we put the show up for free hopefully somebody out there is getting some value

28
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:40,140
out of it and if you are getting value out of it it'd be nice to send some back it'd be really cool

29
00:02:40,140 --> 00:02:44,800
really cool yeah it'd be so awesome you can do that by just telling people about the show so cool

30
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,840
posting it on your socials like christopher battles does for us he's kind of our unofficial uh

31
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:56,740
yeah social media guy because i'm terrible at marketing yes oh i love marketing then you need

32
00:02:56,740 --> 00:03:03,320
to be our marketing no i failed my social media marketing test for my certification i would have

33
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:07,700
had a certification right now in social media marketing you can get that on for free on google

34
00:03:07,700 --> 00:03:13,480
that's what i was doing well then we did it for free on google oh my gosh and i failed because i didn't

35
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:19,280
read it and i was like that'd be fine i i know what guy that used chad gpt for and got a 70 and

36
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:25,140
he got the certification so at least i didn't do that so uh some folks like to help us out with cash

37
00:03:25,140 --> 00:03:32,600
money or uh or fiat money because you know i think of cash money as like bitcoin fiat money is what the

38
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:37,940
us dollar is they tell you it's worth something so it's worth something like gold is not fiat because

39
00:03:37,940 --> 00:03:42,200
it actually has a physical i hate that word stop on that please you don't like no i don't no you don't

40
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,100
that's the kind of car that you want though yes it is i don't care for the word i ate it so much

41
00:03:47,100 --> 00:03:54,720
it's like like if i oh your mama hates the name moira why does she hate the word like moira i don't

42
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:59,160

76
00:07:24,300 --> 00:07:29,780
you do yours let's make it a quick little conversation okay okay so i'm not huge into fashion

77
00:07:29,780 --> 00:07:35,100
but with lila doing all of her sewing and i really am i really am into fashion costume design and all that

78
00:07:35,100 --> 00:07:39,180
stuff i was like yeah i'll watch it i watched it last year too so why don't you why don't you talk

79
00:07:39,180 --> 00:07:42,820
about a little bit because you're more into what i am yeah i'm not really into it because of costumes

80
00:07:42,820 --> 00:07:47,860
i'm just really into fashion not really designer fashion which is mainly what this is but i really

81
00:07:47,860 --> 00:07:54,720
am into the artistry aspect of it i'm really into fine arts and fashion can be considered a fine art

82
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:59,560
if you look at the fashion designing aspect and the marketing aspect it's just all super cool so i

83
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:04,120
watched the met gala because we're watching some youtube video and dad was like oh speaking of which

84
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:09,220
the met gala's on and i'm like what what he said it like in the middle of it too so i had to rewind

85
00:08:09,220 --> 00:08:14,220
the entire thing didn't get to watch it live everyone looked super good the theme for this

86
00:08:14,220 --> 00:08:23,940
year was tailored for you and it's kind of just a theme of fancy suits like come on man i already have

87
00:08:23,940 --> 00:08:32,960
have a qualm with most of the guys at the met gala only wearing bland suits any color bland suits

88
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:40,080
and like i can't remember which one it is was this year but he was wearing a really bland outfit and

89
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:45,720
he turns around he's got a brooch on the back and i'm like dude that's it that's what you're proud of

90
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:51,600
that's really lame it's like i just pulled a suit out of the closet but i'm going to the met gala so

91
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,660
i gotta do something um what do we got what do we get oh oh oh oh give me one of your brooches

92
00:08:55,660 --> 00:09:03,620
yeah the all of the people at the met gala this year looked good they all looked dapper

93
00:09:03,620 --> 00:09:09,120
other than like a few people there was a few that weren't yeah but they were going for ultra avant-garde

94
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:17,500
trying to look weird um zendaya wear a big hat like she does she's got a thinking cap on let it let her

95
00:09:17,500 --> 00:09:28,700
rihanna is pregnant again nice and the what's it called the exhibit for this year was exhibit

96
00:09:28,700 --> 00:09:37,300
a no tailoring black style it's a very i looked at some of the works in it and it looks really cool

97
00:09:37,300 --> 00:09:42,760
it's oh okay i didn't see those those are yeah aren't they because this is the part we don't see

98
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:48,500
on like the stream it's what's actually in the metropolitan museum for people to come look at

99
00:09:48,500 --> 00:09:54,760
because i haven't do a new i do new different exhibit every year and the met gala is a fundraiser

100
00:09:54,760 --> 00:10:03,380
for that exhibit so it's all really fancy suits and i love it i saw i saw a few outfits on there

101
00:10:03,380 --> 00:10:09,560
that were really cool looking yeah i do recommend not for practical everyday wear but yeah just like

102
00:10:09,560 --> 00:10:14,160
the art art the lines and stuff are really cool yeah i do recommend going to the website the vogue

103
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:20,960
website and looking at some of the really pretty outfits this year my favorite was i go

104
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:27,260
wadum wadum i have no idea i think that's how i think that's how the pronunciation guide said

105
00:10:27,260 --> 00:10:33,740
she's one of the people on snl and she did great hosting this year i loved her outfit it was a

fully black except for the buttons and her nails some some of those amazing some of those ladies

107
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:47,460

110
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:06,740

111
00:11:06,740 --> 00:11:13,880

112
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:20,980
a bustle and a really big hat it looked really good on her i'll have to go find you have to find her name

113
00:11:20,980 --> 00:11:27,840
was hold on i can keep talking while i'm looking for it okay well while you're talking about that although

114
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:32,700
i do have a qualm because you know how i said like oh men always wear like a bland suit man it

115
00:11:32,700 --> 00:11:38,500
was that this time but with the women too yeah come on man women were wearing dude suits and just

116
00:11:38,500 --> 00:11:43,900
boring ones like nothing like crazy there was one dude who had a suit on and he had a whole bunch of

117
00:11:43,900 --> 00:11:49,820
pocket watches yo yeah i remember that and nobody asked him for the time nobody not a single person

118
00:11:49,820 --> 00:11:53,940
ask this man for the time and he would you know he was ready for it he's like do you want to know

119
00:11:53,940 --> 00:12:03,160
what time it is here or in tokyo also echo no no uh no what yeah echo echo waffle echo waffle

121
00:12:08,500 --> 00:12:12,920
so i'm a guy named dapper dan that was there that's funny i love that but the

122
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:20,160
the the pomp and and pretentiousness of it all turns me off on it but i do like looking great at

123
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,800
some of the outfits there's a lot of pink this year i quite enjoyed the pink i didn't expect that

124
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:32,100
there was so i think we'll move off of the met gala now yes i think that's all it really is to be

125
00:12:32,100 --> 00:12:39,220
said without being mean to people um because there was there was some real oh the one thing diana ross

126
00:12:39,220 --> 00:12:46,960
took up the entire stairwell with just the train to her uh to her outfit you were so mad about it just

127
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:53,720
it was so mad about it i didn't care it is not an outfit if you can't it's not an outfit though

128
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,840

130
00:13:04,260 --> 00:13:12,480

139
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:11,000
so not the way you think though no no it was fine um getting canceled saying offensive things and

140
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:17,900
getting canceled is big in the news this week uh so if you're if you're and always yeah i mean yeah

141
00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:24,180
it's it's it's always in there but everybody right now is saying that cancel culture is over oh it's so

142
00:14:24,180 --> 00:14:31,860
over um it's done in fact we have canceled cancel culture because i've not heard a single person say

143
00:14:31,860 --> 00:14:40,300
that i have cool there um is it there was an incident where a lady at a park i'm sure you've

144
00:14:40,300 --> 00:14:48,680
heard of it uh said an extremely offensive thing to a small child and was and then somebody approached

145
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:55,060
her about it and it was it became this whole thing and now she's receiving i think she's over

146
00:14:55,060 --> 00:15:00,200
seven hundred thousand dollars worth of donations on gifts and go now um and then like go fund me

147
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:05,320
right it's like a go fund me uh that i didn't know mom didn't he was spewing all the stuff about

148
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:09,840
this situation and me and mom were looking at each other like what's give send go what's give send go

149
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:16,500
um saying that to each other we were like i don't know so eventually when you were done with your rant

150
00:15:16,500 --> 00:15:21,900
we were like what what is that it's like it's like go fund me it's a donation see we just have our

151
00:15:21,900 --> 00:15:27,720
own donation page we didn't we don't go through all this stuff um anyway what they're saying is that

152
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:33,080
you know people try and cancel other people for saying things that they don't like or having

153
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:38,500
opinions that they don't like but now obviously there's a whole bunch of people who are willing

154
00:15:38,500 --> 00:15:44,900
to give money to this woman to keep her from worrying about being canceled and losing her job

155
00:15:44,900 --> 00:15:50,780
and being unemployable because she said something offensive um and there's there's all this there's a

156
00:15:50,780 --> 00:15:55,540
lot of arguments online about it you can you can't throw a rock on twitter and not hear about this

157
00:15:55,540 --> 00:16:02,440
this story right now uh and it's a mess but that got me thinking about just cancel culture in general

158
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:09,320
and how just wanted to give our you know our thoughts on it i wanted to hear how you thought

159
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:15,700
about it but after i talked for a little bit more about it um so i'm gathering my my counter argument

160
00:16:15,700 --> 00:16:24,240
as you're speaking right it my my thing about when something is offensive or something is something

161
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:35,000
that i don't like i just tune out i just block that like on on x for example you can block words

162
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:44,320
so like i i put in taylor swift because now i don't see anything that has the words taylor and swift

163
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:51,300
after each other in that order i don't see it on x it blocks it and you can do that with anything

164
00:16:51,300 --> 00:16:56,320
so if you don't like a certain topic you can block it you can not watch it it used to be on tv you

165
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:01,080
just change the channel unless of course the president was on and then there was nothing else

166
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:05,680
to watch because he was on all the stations so unless you wanted to pop in a vhs tape and watch

167
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:12,560
one of your movies that you recorded off the tv um like that one girl oh yeah we can talk about that

168
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:18,580
yeah in a little bit if we remember um but yeah so i've always just been of the you don't like it

169
00:17:18,580 --> 00:17:25,600
don't watch it um if you don't like what this person's saying block them or mute them uh don't

170
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:31,300
give them engagement because if you okay i have an opinion on that okay so what's your opinion okay

171
00:17:31,300 --> 00:17:39,120
so if someone's doing something objectively bad and you know if okay if someone's doing something and

172
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:46,040
you don't like it like you think it's it's cringe or you think it's something that like you're not

173
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:51,460
into but some people might be it's okay to just block someone or to say i don't like this content

174
00:17:51,460 --> 00:17:55,660
please don't show me it like that's kind of how i am with a couple of youtubers we were just talking

175
00:17:55,660 --> 00:17:59,340
about this before the show but there's this youtuber named i show speed that i do not like

176
00:17:59,340 --> 00:18:07,060
with anything in my heart yeah he's just not he's not a great guy and he's really annoying so

177
00:18:07,060 --> 00:18:11,980
hey i show speed if you're listening to this come on the show come on the show i have a lot to say

178
00:18:11,980 --> 00:18:17,920
to you but i've obviously been like i don't like this guy's content please don't throw me at youtube

179
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:25,900
and i man other people can watch him i really don't care as long as you're not like acting like

180
00:18:25,900 --> 00:18:32,020
him then i would care because he's kind of annoying but i really don't care at past that point but if

181
00:18:32,020 --> 00:18:37,500
someone's doing something bad and you're just blocking them and you're not doing anything about it

182
00:18:37,500 --> 00:18:43,000
that's where i have a problem well one of the problems with doing something about it if you're

183
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:47,740
not physically in the real world doing something about it you're not doing anything about it

184
00:18:47,740 --> 00:18:54,100
because are you sure i'm sure they're just let's for a couple for example okay for example um i say

185
00:18:54,100 --> 00:19:00,740
something that you feel like is harmful for me to say right it's really shouldn't be being said

186
00:19:00,740 --> 00:19:06,860
uh either it's an opinion or a call to whatever it is right and let's say you've got a bigger platform

187
00:19:06,860 --> 00:19:14,860
than me by showing people that i exist by calling me out you're boosting my platform

188
00:19:14,860 --> 00:19:25,340
and you're getting my voice heard by more people and it's a um negative attention attention exactly

189
00:19:25,340 --> 00:19:31,000
and attention is the currency of the internet yes but i'm not saying giving them attention i'm saying

190
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:37,460
doing something about what they're saying and of course i'm not going to be like oh go in their

191
00:19:37,460 --> 00:19:40,980
comment section and attack them you know because that gives them that gives them attention and that

192
00:19:40,980 --> 00:19:48,680
gives them something to engagement what sorry yeah i know i sorry i lost my train of thought

193
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:54,700
because you said that sorry well i lost the sentence i was saying that's fine so what

194
00:19:54,700 --> 00:20:00,640
loud like i've got a bullet point here loudly calling somebody out gives them free attention

195
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:09,920
um and that attention gets them more followers and as we know from the the value for value that we

196
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,880
receive the more people that are listening the more chances you have of somebody supporting you

197
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:22,240
financially right so getting boosted in any way the more you get boosted the more you're likely to

198
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:27,720
find someone that has an opinion that that they agree with you what am i talking about yeah no

199
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:33,860
that's exactly right that's exactly right it's like if you're a if you're a nazi and you're on

200
00:20:33,860 --> 00:20:38,160
the internet and someone's like man i don't like this i hate nazis in your comment section

201
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:45,340
that gives you more engagement which recommends you to more people therefore finding more nazis

202
00:20:45,340 --> 00:20:49,900
to interact with your content and be like i like this i'm a nazi too don't take that out of content

203
00:20:49,900 --> 00:20:56,180
no no no okay hopefully that was close enough to me saying that to where it doesn't get clipped

204
00:20:56,180 --> 00:21:03,660
out of context um i'm 15 don't trust anything i say yes this is all for entertainment purposes

205
00:21:03,660 --> 00:21:06,100
this is all for entertainment purposes none of this is real characters right now we're playing

206
00:21:06,100 --> 00:21:14,640
characters i'm my name is not lila i i gave you my deepest darkest secret oh no oh no okay no i i'm

207
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:21,000
with you no i see what you're saying and like the problem is is you want to be like oh my gosh i

208
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:26,100
can't believe this person who all these people are following and liking and sending money to and

209
00:21:26,100 --> 00:21:31,040
buying their merch which is i i don't like that most of these people probably don't even know what's

210
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:37,420
going on and how bad of a person this is yes okay yeah yeah yeah yeah so like yeah for let's let's

211
00:21:37,420 --> 00:21:43,400
say for example um clown mouse oh my gosh he's still up our mascot up here in the studio clown

212
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:50,220
mouse uh does something extremely bad right but he's got 100 million followers as clown mouse does

213
00:21:50,220 --> 00:21:56,380
uh clown mouse does something terrible but the people that watch clown mouse only watch clown mouse

214
00:21:56,380 --> 00:22:03,320
they don't watch other content creators talk about the bad thing that clown mouse does they only watch

215
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:08,580
so if he never mentions it on his show and clown mouse never does an apology video with a ukulele

216
00:22:08,580 --> 00:22:17,640
and a dog and a dog then we their people don't know the drama and the whatever horrible thing that they

217
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:26,880
did but they're getting new people going to to listen out of curiosity and let's say only 100 one in 100

218
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:31,680
people that you send to them actually likes their stuff you're still sending them more people

219
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:37,940
which is why you don't want to if someone's objectively a bad person you don't want to

220
00:22:37,940 --> 00:22:43,600
tell a bunch of people hey go look at this this is really bad right like like that's kind of what

221
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:48,420
they did with like the whole uh uh ukulele girl situation i don't i don't want to say her name i feel

222
00:22:48,420 --> 00:22:56,940
like i'm gonna conjure her uh it was like beetlejuice uh they were like making a bunch of videos about her

223
00:22:56,940 --> 00:23:00,880
being like oh look what this girl did you should go watch this video it's really funny and like

224
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:06,000
man you don't have to say that you're giving her clicks you're giving her clicks you know what she

225
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:11,300
did you know how she responded that's how you should end it and you should just leave it at that

226
00:23:11,300 --> 00:23:19,140
you don't have to respect her you don't have to go show her a dislike i think it would it would behoove

227
00:23:19,140 --> 00:23:29,940
the platforms to have a button saying uh please do not uh give any monetization or algorithm boost

228
00:23:29,940 --> 00:23:35,360
because i viewed this video needs to be a button like i do not support this button so you can still

229
00:23:35,360 --> 00:23:40,200
watch something use an ad blocker without uh well no but there's it doesn't matter because it still

230
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:46,660
counts as engagement just just you watching it and watch time the algorithm on youtube through lots and

231
00:23:46,660 --> 00:23:51,860
lots of research that a lot of people have done it pretty much all boils down to watch time that's

232
00:23:51,860 --> 00:23:57,640
why marvel when they recently did the cast announcement for avengers doomsday they made

233
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:05,720
it a five hour long video it was the camera slowly panning across the actors names and it took five

234
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:12,120
hours to get across because of how slowly the camera was moving because they know that cumulative

235
00:24:12,120 --> 00:24:18,440
watch time is what pushes you up in the algorithm so they were like hey we're gonna get

236
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:24,400
20 000 people watching for five hours that's a lot of watch time algorithms one day yeah we're gonna

237
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,020
make a whole episode about this yeah we need to research on that one though we need to actually dig in

238
00:24:28,020 --> 00:24:34,360
instead of just uh making bullet points man i like bullet points i can talk i talk better with

239
00:24:34,360 --> 00:24:39,520
bullet points than i do like write a script i'll see if i can get somebody who one of the people

240
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,600
that i've seen do a lot of um research into algorithms see if i can get them on the show

241
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:50,220
to talk about it who's done a lot of the work um yeah that sounds like a great idea so i looked up

242
00:24:50,220 --> 00:24:57,400
uh people who have been canceled but then it backfired and gave them more or you know whatever

243
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:05,900
uh jk rowling is one of them uh she that's the author of the of the harry potter books if you're not

244
00:25:05,900 --> 00:25:11,440
familiar faced backlash on her views on gender but attempts to cancel her boosted her book sales

245
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:18,940
and rallied free speech supporters landing her multi-million dollar deals um dave chappelle

246
00:25:18,940 --> 00:25:24,320
he had uh some some jokes that were supposed to be cancelable make them get canceled

247
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:32,400
uh but it didn't and netflix ended up giving him more specials because of how popular it got

248
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,700
because everybody was so outraged about it people like oh man everybody's mad i better go watch this

249
00:25:36,700 --> 00:25:42,400
thing go see what it's like why are people so mad um not going to talk about r kelly

250
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,000
please don't

251
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:53,640
um let's see who else uh jeffrey star i've heard that name before uh but the name came up when i was

252
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:59,240
looking through the the list of people oh my gosh yeah so sorry do you know about jeffrey star

253
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:04,120
situation no but i have something to add to this the end of it okay so jeffrey star repeat repeated

254
00:26:04,120 --> 00:26:11,660
cancellations for apparently racist comments but each controversy grew his cosmetics line

255
00:26:11,660 --> 00:26:16,580
and youtube every time he would have controversy he would get more people buying his products

256
00:26:16,580 --> 00:26:22,980
and more people following on youtube so another person in the what's it called cosmetic

257
00:26:22,980 --> 00:26:29,600
youtube uh-huh a guy named james charles he was canceled like seven times and he just kept coming

258
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:35,200
back being like i'm sorry i won't do it again like like every time and he kept doing it what were the

259
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:43,040
cancellations cancellations were about um like really bad stuff like grooming minors whoa yeah exactly

260
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:49,040
like three times like more than once he came back and was like i'm so sorry i won't do this again

261
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:53,400
i'm drawing this butterfly on my face doing this whole butterfly makeup routine as a form of

262
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:59,740
like how i'm showing i'm gonna be reborn and i'm gonna do so good yeah like it was that bad get why

263
00:26:59,740 --> 00:27:04,200
i don't know why people give so many passes to people like you look at like chris brown

264
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:10,960
um had you know the domestic abuse allegations and everything and i don't know if you ever saw the

265
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:17,300
pictures of rihanna i've not but i have heard of the the allegations yeah i'm i'm not saying

266
00:27:17,300 --> 00:27:21,340
allegations as if they're not true i'm saying yeah i don't know if he was convicted i'm pretty

267
00:27:21,340 --> 00:27:27,140
sure he was but i could be wrong about that don't sue me um every time i say allegations on the show

268
00:27:27,140 --> 00:27:34,000
i'm assuming that they are true but i'm also but we don't want to get yeah we don't want to catch a

269
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:43,160
defamation suit or slander or whatever it is uh okay another one was goya foods oh uh goya makes a lot

270
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:50,560
of different canned goods i believe um like black beans and stuff like that thank you um the ceo robert

271
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:59,200
you knew you nanu good enough okay praised trump which you know you can't do that uh boycott call

272
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:05,440
boycott calls erupted oh my gosh we're talking about that in a second conservatives are rallied

273
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:13,520
with a boycott instead of a boycott so they were buying goya's food and goya sales went up a lot

274
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:20,580
so that was a direct result of some people saying don't buy goya's like we were gonna buy goya so like

275
00:28:20,580 --> 00:28:28,740
you're just hoping as goya you're gonna get more new people than you lost from people boycotting you

276
00:28:28,740 --> 00:28:37,680
so trump as the pope people yes people are talking okay so the white house what was it twitter page

277
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:44,740
it was not the white house it was his truth thought social i believe okay reposted this image i don't

278
00:28:44,740 --> 00:28:54,460
know if they posted it originally or if they reposted it of a ai generated photo of donald r j r reynolds

279
00:28:54,460 --> 00:29:01,320
j trump don't know what his middle name is don't really care donald robert downey jr trump yeah

280
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:10,520
donald rfk trump good enough okay uh him as the pope after the pope had died

281
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:20,220
now what i found found not funny he was goofing around he was goofing around but still the pope

282
00:29:20,220 --> 00:29:28,600
sadly passed away like a couple hours after jd vance came to visit him in his in in the place

283
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:33,960
where the pope is i don't know where it is the vatican vatican yeah and he basically

284
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:43,380
it was it was a whole situation it was a lot we there's a lot going on there's all these conspiracy

285
00:29:43,380 --> 00:29:51,280
theories that it was jd that done it i saw i saw a post somewhere i can't remember and it was like

286
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:56,980
man no wonder and it was someone that looked up like what's jd vance's name and it was like just

287
00:29:56,980 --> 00:30:05,580
killed the pope like man why didn't we notice this earlier oh my gosh but no i don't i don't think no

288
00:30:05,580 --> 00:30:11,340
i think the pope was on his way out anyway it's just really funny like a couple hours after but the

289
00:30:11,340 --> 00:30:15,580
controversy is that people are just like oh he's trying to say that he you know he's the pope and

290
00:30:15,580 --> 00:30:21,400
also there was the whole trump gaza number one thing what was that you didn't know no no i dude

291
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:26,380
i told you about that what did what was it oh my gosh let me look it up let me look it up on my

292
00:30:26,380 --> 00:30:31,000
okay so because i can't connect my blue there's a lot of catholic people very upset about it um

293
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:35,820
and then there's a lot of people who are just like it was just a joke it was maybe in poor taste but

294
00:30:35,820 --> 00:30:42,200
when we're talking about taste i mean it's trump you know donald trump shares bizarre ai generated

295
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:49,220
video of trump gaza in quotes oh yeah you should look it up it's yeah trump trump

296
00:30:49,220 --> 00:30:58,100
yeah that was old actually that's yeah i know it's two months old um oh my gosh it feels very much

297
00:30:58,100 --> 00:31:01,980
longer than that yes it was only two months this year has lasted six years already it's only may

298
00:31:01,980 --> 00:31:08,360
um craziness oh no it was a ai man oh no my screen went black oh my gosh can't see i can't see

299
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:14,440
there we go i can't see um and then of course every time anybody tries to cancel joe rogan it backfires

300
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:20,140
so those are just and then there's like i mean there's a classic example like the uh what's it

301
00:31:20,140 --> 00:31:25,960
called the streisand effect are you familiar with that so barbara streisand did not want

302
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:32,380
like somebody put took some pictures of her new house like on the beach or whatever and was going

303
00:31:32,380 --> 00:31:39,640
to publish them or did publish them and barbara streisand made a big huge stink about hey nobody uh

304
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:44,860
nobody needs to post these pictures anywhere share these pictures around on newspapers or anything

305
00:31:44,860 --> 00:31:48,580
like that don't do it don't do it and she made such a big stink about it everybody was like what are you

306
00:31:48,580 --> 00:31:53,200
talking about oh i'm gonna check this out and the picture went went crazy everybody knew about it

307
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:59,820
so it backfired and since then it's called the streisand effect um it's kind of like that uh

308
00:31:59,820 --> 00:32:03,620
beyonce wanted those pictures deleted off the internet of her at a concert looking horrible

309
00:32:03,620 --> 00:32:08,200
just because the timing of the picture you know when you're like dancing and singing and stuff

310
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:13,460
like sometimes your face makes weird faces and uh she didn't like the way that she looked in the

311
00:32:13,460 --> 00:32:17,780
picture she's like delete those off the internet and everybody was like that's not how the internet

312
00:32:17,780 --> 00:32:24,920
works there's no very few things can get deleted off the internet and you're not able to find them

313
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:32,960
um there is a couple incidents of people recovering from cancellation very quickly that i want to talk

314
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:38,020
about i would go for it because i'm i'm done my list is over yeah i saw that as i was doing this

315
00:32:38,020 --> 00:32:44,380
like pewdiepie he had the whole bridge incident you can look that up on your own he said something

316
00:32:44,380 --> 00:32:52,540
on stream and it wasn't very favorable and everyone was like oh no so he got he got he got big cancel

317
00:32:52,540 --> 00:32:58,460
he got the cancel hammer was it a racial slur was it the racial slur yeah i think i heard about that

318
00:32:58,460 --> 00:33:05,340
yeah i don't know if he said it multiple times but definitely did say it one time and he still has a

319
00:33:05,340 --> 00:33:12,600
huge following but he did recently kind of take a hiatus from the internet definitely which good for him

320
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:21,800
he did uh come back recently and he is praising linux now he's very pro linux and uh that's really

321
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:27,020
good because if that gets a bunch of young people interested in linux great that's that's just good

322
00:33:27,020 --> 00:33:32,980
because a lot of those young people are gonna learn to code and help out with the open sourceness of it

323
00:33:32,980 --> 00:33:42,180
and make it better that's always good yeah um another guy logan paul logan paul okay so is that the

324
00:33:42,180 --> 00:33:48,700
one that box tyson uh no that's jake paul that's his brother jake i have a lot of trouble keeping up

325
00:33:48,700 --> 00:33:55,480
with them because i don't yeah okay so i know i know i know i know me too i had a big trouble with

326
00:33:55,480 --> 00:34:00,780
do you know what logan paul did to get canceled uh is he the one that went to the suicide forest in

327
00:34:00,780 --> 00:34:10,800
japan yes okay he went there and he i'm assuming accidentally filmed something that he should not

328
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:17,200
have and then made some unfavorable comments about it was it like was there somebody hanging in the

329
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:22,840
tree or yes that was okay and he made jokes about it and then uploaded it to youtube as part of a blog

330
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:27,960
yeah and then he came back i have made a severe and continuous lapse in my judgment and i do not

331
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:33,600
expect to be forgiven i am only here to apologize that was the first line he had his dog there he

332
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:42,080
was bawling uh and then he just kind of everyone forgot about it somehow yeah people and then he

333
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:50,220
made a whole brand with ksi and like what okay so there's people get invested in the people that they

334
00:34:50,220 --> 00:34:58,200
listen to or um are entertained by and they're like okay so i'm like oh you know oh i like i like

335
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:03,920
bruce willis i like a lot of bruce willis movies and and all that right i'm like oh yeah i'm a big fan

336
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:10,120
of bruce willis i'm a big fan and when you do that you slowly start to make it part of your identity

337
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:17,220
and if you're a big logan paul fan and you've bought his merch and you've spent money on him

338
00:35:17,220 --> 00:35:22,940
he makes a mistake but you're a fan right he's kind of your friend it's a one-way friendship

339
00:35:22,940 --> 00:35:28,780
obviously but parasocial relationship that's another topic we have for another day yeah um

340
00:35:28,780 --> 00:35:32,800
you get your parasocial relationship going with somebody they become a part of your identity

341
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:37,720
you don't want to you're kind of like a you're kind of like i can't forgive you you know you did

342
00:35:37,720 --> 00:35:42,640
you did something wrong but it's okay because you've entertained me a lot you've blah blah blah

343
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:46,020
but i don't know i don't i don't

344
00:35:47,220 --> 00:35:52,640
i guess i don't know i don't even know how to think about it because it's like that person is

345
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:57,840
just out there making making stuff for you to enjoy whether they're doing it strictly for the

346
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:08,060
money and the fame or other reasons you it depends on what it is now if he wasn't making fun of like

347
00:36:08,060 --> 00:36:14,900
if he was out there just filming and he happened to get a dead body in the shot it would be different

348
00:36:14,900 --> 00:36:19,140
i didn't know that he like was joking about it and making fun of it and stuff yeah that's different

349
00:36:19,140 --> 00:36:26,560
see that's intentional his yes his script for his apology was actually one of the best i've seen

350
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:33,960
but the way that he acted during the video and after just kind of put me off of his content you

351
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:39,440
know i never really watched him but i definitely am not going to after this all happened we didn't

352
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:43,460
let around when that was happening you weren't we weren't letting you watch a lot of stuff on the

353
00:36:43,460 --> 00:36:48,920
internet anyway yeah so uh he said i want to apologize to the internet i want to apologize to

354
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:52,300
everyone who's seen the video i want to apologize to everyone who has been affected or touched by

355
00:36:52,300 --> 00:36:56,400
mental illness or depression or suicide but most importantly i want to apologize to the victim and

356
00:36:56,400 --> 00:37:00,620
his family for my fans who are defending my actions please don't they do not deserve to be

357
00:37:00,620 --> 00:37:05,060
defended the goal with my content is always to entertain push boundaries to be all-inclusive

358
00:37:05,060 --> 00:37:09,440
in the world i live in i share almost everything i do the intent is to never be heartless cruel or

359
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:13,760
malicious like i said i've made a huge mistake i do not expect to be forgiven i'm just here to

360
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,560
apologize i'm ashamed of myself i'm disappointed in myself and i promise to do better i will be

361
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:23,580
better thank you that was like half of his video right and hopefully he meant it and hopefully he

362
00:37:23,580 --> 00:37:29,380
hasn't done anything like that before again and people make mistakes yeah and i mean and he said

363
00:37:29,380 --> 00:37:33,380
he didn't know how to feel and he should not have posted the video push it put the cameras down

364
00:37:33,380 --> 00:37:38,760
and stop recording so at least he is taking accountability for it yeah and he's not being

365
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:43,540
like oh that thing that happened i'm sorry about that and just not addressing what he did you know

366
00:37:43,540 --> 00:37:48,080
yeah just saying i'm a big old piece of crap which is basically what he was just saying there i'm a

367
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:53,060
big old piece of crap for doing that um but you know it's it's tough to know what's in people's hearts

368
00:37:53,060 --> 00:38:00,540
but and this this is i mean doesn't really work for parasocial relationships but in real life

369
00:38:00,540 --> 00:38:09,080
forgiveness is for the forgiver not the forgivee when you forgive somebody it lifts a weight off of

370
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:16,680
your soul i mean i know that that's different for internet personalities and people that have been

371
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:21,440
canceled and stuff like that but in real life you know when you're dealing with somebody and they

372
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:27,920
wrong you somehow when you forgive them you're forgiving them to yourself for yourself

373
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:33,820
and they they're going to take the forgiveness how they're going to take it but it's for you

374
00:38:33,820 --> 00:38:42,120
because when you harbor those negative feelings it eats at you so and he definitely did get a bunch

375
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:47,920
of backlash for this like more than people would think like he got that's a pretty it's a pretty um

376
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:51,780
bunch of opportunities it's a pretty bad thing that's a pretty bad thing that's pretty up there

377
00:38:51,780 --> 00:39:00,540
um but in since the years he has used his platform for mostly good well good and he's

378
00:39:00,540 --> 00:39:05,740
diversifies his content i hear his his drink is pretty crap i i've heard that i've tasted it before

379
00:39:05,740 --> 00:39:11,640
i hate to say that i've never bought it but i have had a sip of other people's before and i was like

380
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:16,020
this is pretty good i don't want to say that i do not endorse prime with a prime company

381
00:39:16,020 --> 00:39:24,880
or logan paul or ksi or mr beast even though he's not really part of the prime and he's part of it

382
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,840
if they're all hanging out they're all hanging out with each other they're all working with each

383
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:32,520
other they have if he's ever talked about it he's part of it because with his platform yes

384
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:38,620
old jimmy's got a lot of viewers yeah oh my gosh wait i think there's there's a podcast episode

385
00:39:38,620 --> 00:39:42,700
that they did or like an interview that they did with each other logan paul ksi and um no it was

386
00:39:42,700 --> 00:39:49,240
just logan paul and jimmy jimmy beast and they both look so awkward with each other like they do

387
00:39:49,240 --> 00:39:52,880
not have matching personalities at all you can definitely tell that it's only a business

388
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:59,660
relationship kind of like you and i yeah right yeah we have no like we don't talk off of the

389
00:39:59,660 --> 00:40:05,660
podcast actually she comes out to the studio once a week with a cookie with a cookie oh my gosh it was

390
00:40:05,660 --> 00:40:10,240
good we got the ghirardelli chocolate chips yeah i like the hershey's ones more i gotta say i kind of

391
00:40:10,240 --> 00:40:17,400
do too i gotta say they taste kind of crappier um nice you know it's like it's like sometimes you

392
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:22,080
don't want chicken like nice homemade chicken tenders you want mcdonald's chicken nuggets

393
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:28,560
because of the nostalgia because of the cheapness because of the artificial um it just tickles your

394
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:37,580
brain a different way um i've got uh yeah my my older brother lives in hawaii and he has the best

395
00:40:37,580 --> 00:40:45,040
sushi places out there like oh my gosh they're so good but when he comes to town he wants to go to

396
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:52,740
the crappy strip mall chinese buffet he like craves that that cheap like i love that badly made been

397
00:40:52,740 --> 00:40:58,740
sitting under the heat lamp for an hour and a half food yeah and he's got you know top-notch

398
00:40:58,740 --> 00:41:05,940
notch world-class restaurants where he's at that he goes to so um i got a quote here from ellie

399
00:41:05,940 --> 00:41:13,820
wazelle ellie wazelle the author of night interesting book that we were forced to read in uh high school

400
00:41:13,820 --> 00:41:18,920
don't remember a single thing about the book but pretty cool dude you don't remember anything about

401
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:24,080
that no i read the entire thing and we oh my gosh want two scenes from that book stick out to me

402
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:29,540
there's one scene that i remember was it the pitchfork i don't know it was the one where

403
00:41:29,540 --> 00:41:35,760
they were getting like trampled oh gotcha um the pitchfork sticks out to me and uh that was a pretty

404
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,320
pretty rough scene if you haven't read it you can you know you can look that up on your own honestly

405
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:42,240
recommend it even though i don't remember much about it i do remember it being kind of entertaining

406
00:41:42,240 --> 00:41:46,940
there's been people who've said that the whole book is you know mostly fiction and there's been a

407
00:41:46,940 --> 00:41:53,540
controversy about it but whatever um even if it was all fiction it was well written and i actually did my

408
00:41:53,540 --> 00:42:03,680
junior writing essay assignment for the state on that book so i um i got the highest score for my

409
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:12,780
old high school in 25 years high school so set the record on that anywho the quote is the opposite of

410
00:42:12,780 --> 00:42:19,260
love is not hate it's indifference i love that quote okay i think about that every day actually i didn't

411
00:42:19,260 --> 00:42:23,040
know you wrote that in here i didn't read well you're not really supposed to read my notes because

412
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:28,540
i can't surprise you and like i just did that's a great great response so um if you really want to

413
00:42:28,540 --> 00:42:36,380
cancel somebody uh especially if you have a large following like if you have a large loud voice if you

414
00:42:36,380 --> 00:42:43,500
really want to cancel somebody ignore them yeah because if you talk about them you're you're

415
00:42:43,500 --> 00:42:50,960
chancing at backfiring yeah and if there's a certain love to hatred like if you think about

416
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:55,620
oh i really don't like that guy like i really want something bad to happen to them you know

417
00:42:55,620 --> 00:43:03,000
it's still thinking about that person right and it's like caring about what happens to them

418
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:08,700
feeds right back into the forgiveness thing yeah if you're harboring hatred that means that you've

419
00:43:08,700 --> 00:43:14,920
got feelings strong feelings in your heart and if they're just a really middle of the line bad guy

420
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:21,160
then you don't really think about that all the time right it's like that's that's i don't want

421
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:25,500
to worry about that you know like i don't think about logan paul all the time what's that guy got

422
00:43:25,500 --> 00:43:31,060
to do with me well i mean if you think about like like if you really really like somebody or love them

423
00:43:31,060 --> 00:43:36,920
if they're like oh i hate you like there's feelings there and you know they're just saying that

424
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:44,860
um but if they're just like you're nothing to me and they just walk away and never that that hurts

425
00:43:44,860 --> 00:43:54,120
that's a knife in the stomach um but yeah so ignore um and i mean you're also chancing like let's say

426
00:43:54,120 --> 00:44:02,160
it's not something extremely like the person needs to go to jail for right it's just like a way that you

427
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:09,400
disagree with that person you're chancing letting your audience and people that look up to you are

428
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:16,660
like you leaving you because they actually agree with that other person or they actually don't have

429
00:44:16,660 --> 00:44:20,660
a problem with that person did and they're like why are you attacking this person for this small thing

430
00:44:20,660 --> 00:44:26,400
you know um you're chancing alienating part of your audience that's why i never understood why

431
00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:32,720
celebrities get political exactly you're you're alienating your audience you're losing out on

432
00:44:32,720 --> 00:44:41,780
possibly millions of dollars and deals and stuff by saying something one way or the other um you make

433
00:44:41,780 --> 00:44:46,940
one of course you can't you can't really stay out of it anymore there's some artists and celebrities

434
00:44:46,940 --> 00:44:52,480
who've tried to say look i'm just not in politics i don't talk about it i'm not going to anything

435
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:57,060
and people are like you have a responsibility and then like they'll get quote-unquote canceled

436
00:44:57,060 --> 00:45:02,980
because they yes okay wait i have more about this okay that topic brought me to another person

437
00:45:02,980 --> 00:45:11,660
okay there's this girl that i i i feel indifferent about her name is britney broski she's been around

438
00:45:11,660 --> 00:45:20,600
since vine maybe a little before vine but i know her from vine till now she the whole thing that was

439
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:26,900
happening in palestine and gaza she was like why do i have a responsibility to talk about this on my

440
00:45:26,900 --> 00:45:33,900
platform but previously this is why people were so messed up about it because they were like if if she

441
00:45:33,900 --> 00:45:39,980
had just said that it would have been okay but previously about like a few months later or before

442
00:45:39,980 --> 00:45:46,960
a few months earlier so it wasn't even like a long time ago she had said if you have a platform you

443
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:53,020
should be using that platform to spread good and to spread your opinions and political views which

444
00:45:53,020 --> 00:45:59,260
like not really but i guess if you think that then you should be following your own advice you know

445
00:45:59,260 --> 00:46:05,000
people just got the wrong vibe from that they were like but you said this like a couple days ago

446
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:14,160
right yeah that's we she's just a very iffy person to me to be honest we um we on our old show we

447
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:20,360
stayed as non-political as possible yeah i don't mind delving into things but i also try and keep

448
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:26,980
things as excuse me i try and keep things as middle of the road as possible which is how i try to think

449
00:46:26,980 --> 00:46:32,660
anyway yeah um he does i try really hard not to have not just saying that knee-jerk reactions about

450
00:46:32,660 --> 00:46:38,400
things sometimes i do but i always pull it back and i'll be like are you sure and he's like wait really

451
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:44,140
wait yeah sometimes i need to fader or leela to be like are you having a knee-jerk reaction i'm like i

452
00:46:44,140 --> 00:46:50,080
am having a knee-jerk reaction let me look into this more yeah and then he'll be like my bad so

453
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:54,920
or he won't be like i still feel this funny example it was one of those 2 30 in the morning

454
00:46:54,920 --> 00:47:00,980
digging around in conspiracy theories uh rabbit holes as you do as a as you do i'll bid a dollar

455
00:47:00,980 --> 00:47:09,560
on that and uh there was there's this device or or monument or there's this shape out in the desert

456
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:17,060
on a military base right and they were talking about the the geometry of the shape blah blah blah

457
00:47:17,060 --> 00:47:23,560
blah causes earthquakes and blah blah blah right and wherever you point whatever if you build one

458
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:28,260
of these huge monuments whatever the tip of it is pointing at there's going to be earthquakes along

459
00:47:28,260 --> 00:47:33,980
that straight line and i'm like oh wow this is what is going on you know i'm reading all this stuff

460
00:47:33,980 --> 00:47:39,860
trying to figure out its veracity and i'm like phaedra look at this so this says that this thing

461
00:47:39,860 --> 00:47:45,120
can cause blah blah blah i'm explaining it all to her and she's like yeah but they built it on a fault

462
00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:50,780
line and i'm like oh hold on i looked up the phone i was like they did build it on a fault exactly

463
00:47:50,780 --> 00:47:57,520
come on man it was 2 30 in the morning and i was going down a rabbit hole i could tell maybe that hole

464
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:03,360
should be a fault that that hole should have been my bed it should have been should have been sleeping

465
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:09,420
because you know how it is google maps or google earth put the phone down at three o'clock in the

466
00:48:09,420 --> 00:48:12,820
morning this is for my safety and you're just scrolling around looking at stuff and you're like

467
00:48:12,820 --> 00:48:18,400
oh what is that that kind of looks like a dog okay i gotta go to bed exactly that is a dog the size

468
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:23,180
of a state nope nope i just gotta go to sleep that's all it is um that's ai

469
00:48:23,180 --> 00:48:30,860
but one of the one of the big problems with the cancel culture and with the people getting so

470
00:48:30,860 --> 00:48:38,000
called call out culture this is what i prefer to call out culture um i hate cancel culture well

471
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:45,160
okay and there's a little rant for me to go on um go ahead people having to change words because

472
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:50,360
they feel like something's getting uh overused or whatever even though it's the best term for it

473
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:54,680
yeah i'm not even necessarily in this overly negative well i mean not even necessarily in

474
00:48:54,680 --> 00:49:00,160
this instance yeah i'm just talking about like cool is a perfectly good word you can use the word oh

475
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:05,500
that's cool you know but they always have to come up with some new word i like saying different

476
00:49:05,500 --> 00:49:11,360
variations to be the same thing yeah i'm not against that comedy you can do a lot with just using a

477
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:18,120
synonym for something awesome sauce oh no say that one more often no radical i hate say that one

478
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:24,300
more i hate awesome sauce and i hate cool beans i don't know where those two came from i don't like

479
00:49:24,300 --> 00:49:36,700
i have a lot of words to say y'all or guys do you want me to list them off fellas fellas

480
00:49:36,700 --> 00:49:43,680
that's sure that's what i got something all right go ahead a lot of them are variations of gang so

481
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:57,260
what's up gang gangalang gangalicious uh pals bros bras uh friend friendos

482
00:49:57,260 --> 00:50:06,740
uh what's up nerds nerds losers i say losers a lot my friends realize that it's just a thing that

483
00:50:06,740 --> 00:50:17,100
i say and i don't mean it thank goodness uh i think that's about it guys loser was for a little while

484
00:50:17,100 --> 00:50:25,720
if you called somebody a loser it was a very deep insult because like what like oh wow you're just a

485
00:50:25,720 --> 00:50:29,560
loser and if you're saying it in jest it just kind of hit a little hard there for a little while just

486
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:33,600
certain you know certain words are like more offensive at certain times just because of i

487
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:37,820
don't know how they're used in a movie or something or whatever you know what i mean loser was a you

488
00:50:37,820 --> 00:50:42,340
really didn't say it to people for a couple of years there it might just been a local thing with

489
00:50:42,340 --> 00:50:50,120
my friends i don't know but um i'm talking about how there's so many people on the internet don't

490
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:55,720
talk to people in real life i was in a chat room one night it was a voice chat we were just chit

491
00:50:55,720 --> 00:51:01,880
chatting about this and that um the the one of the people in the room was very ideological

492
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:11,300
and was very adamant about uh topic a right couldn't couldn't get past i'm like yeah you're

493
00:51:11,300 --> 00:51:16,560
ideological and things should work like that but they don't in real life like i was like when when

494
00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:24,440
was the last time you hung out with somebody who made under 15 an hour and they were something to

495
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:28,520
do with you know people should be able to do this this is this i was like yeah those people struggle

496
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:36,180
and you start to get built up in a certain way but then anyway i went on a whole thing about how

497
00:51:36,180 --> 00:51:40,880
many people do you talk to in real life about these things and he's like well no not really anybody i

498
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,920
don't really talk to too many people in real life i'm like well get out there and talk to real

499
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:49,980
people because when you talk on the internet you can sit behind your your screen name you know if

500
00:51:49,980 --> 00:51:53,720
it's your real name but you know that that person's 2 000 miles away and they're not going to go to your

501
00:51:53,720 --> 00:52:03,060
house wait when if we could sit down and talk to people instead of just being like i know i've got my

502
00:52:03,060 --> 00:52:08,460
my followers backing me up so anything i say i'm going to get at least this many likes and that's what

503
00:52:08,460 --> 00:52:13,400
matters is how many likes you get on what you said versus what the other person said um whereas if you sit

504
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:17,760
down and talk to somebody even if somebody who vehemently disagrees with you on one or two things

505
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:21,580
you're going to find something in common you're going to be able to put things in a better way

506
00:52:21,580 --> 00:52:26,840
looking into somebody's eyes you can tell whether they're sincere or not um but that's just it just

507
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:32,380
doesn't really happen anymore there's not coffee shops where people you sit and talk to just random

508
00:52:32,380 --> 00:52:37,100
people about random things anymore there aren't any real third spaces are you familiar with that

509
00:52:37,100 --> 00:52:42,380
uh yeah yeah not home not work it's a third space like coffee shops

510
00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:51,380
yeah so yes 4chan did get shut down yeah i was looking okay so just recently uh this website

511
00:52:51,380 --> 00:52:57,600
called 4chan don't look it up i don't recommend it very very terrible worse than reddit but man there

512
00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:03,740
has been some funny stuff come off there's also been some very disturbing stuff but cool stories oh my

513
00:53:03,740 --> 00:53:08,520
gosh if you want to watch some youtube videos about it i recommend that that's really cool the one where

514
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:16,120
shia labeouf was trying to hide a flag was that was an amazing story look that up there's been some

515
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:20,880
there's been some stuff coming off of 4chan but it recently got hacked which i thought was really

516
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:25,820
funny and then it got shut down for two weeks and now it's back i'm very mad about that is

517
00:53:25,820 --> 00:53:30,640
no we won't talk about that it's what yeah to me it's just like you just don't go there

518
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:35,260
yeah just don't just don't go there let them let them be their own little cesspool of whatever they

519
00:53:35,260 --> 00:53:41,220
are yeah and uh like reddit at least can be okay sometimes like there's certain there's some subreddits

520
00:53:41,220 --> 00:53:50,720
that are okay reddit is good for one thing and it's tech support which i gotta say the ais are getting

521
00:53:50,720 --> 00:53:56,720
they're my go-to now if i need to like i'm still kind of learning linux i'm still not 100 on it of

522
00:53:56,720 --> 00:54:04,760
course and um reddit is also really good at math problems well the the trick on reddit and most

523
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:12,460
internet forums if you cora no oh my god it's terrible cora sucks i'm gonna send that to your nana no

524
00:54:12,460 --> 00:54:23,020
um her name's cora so um if if you go on these sites let's say i need to know how these um logitech

525
00:54:23,020 --> 00:54:31,940
speakers you know work right i'm like hey uh if i need to re-solder a usb cable on this this set of

526
00:54:31,940 --> 00:54:37,640
speakers do i use this or this and then you immediately get on a different account and give

527
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:43,020
the wrong answer that you know is wrong oh my gosh you will get 20 responses with the correct

528
00:54:43,020 --> 00:54:49,040
how to do it because there's they don't really particularly care about helping somebody what

529
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:55,060
they care about is making you feel stupid yeah so you have to you have to do things in such a way

530
00:54:55,060 --> 00:55:05,540
that you invite them to make you feel dumb in air quotes um yeah what's i gonna say oh i find it

531
00:55:05,540 --> 00:55:10,220
really funny that ai was trying to train itself off of reddit and now when you look something up and it

532
00:55:10,220 --> 00:55:13,640
gives you like one of those top of the thing answers it says this answer was provided by our reddit

533
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:18,900
post like it has to have that disclaimer there it has to have the disclaimer saying it's from reddit

534
00:55:18,900 --> 00:55:23,680
well yeah because people were saying a bunch of stuff well i know you must eat one rock a day

535
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:30,780
just when you when you um get on grok it actually gives you at the top of the response it'll give

536
00:55:30,780 --> 00:55:35,520
you any websites that it used for that information yeah it does that on the google ones any posts i think

537
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,840
that's a good way to do it yeah that way you can actually dig into stuff you're like that doesn't

538
00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:43,600
quite seem right you know what i'm mad about what are you mad about you don't really guess my goat

539
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:50,480
what really gets your goat on the school computers they have the little ai pop-up box that comes at

540
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:58,540
the top blocked and i'm mad about because they have certain plugins blocked on the school computers

541
00:55:58,540 --> 00:56:03,960
and certain websites like you can't use reddit at school i find that so funny well reddit's full of

542
00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:09,680
like i know yeah terrible but i there's just certain websites that they don't let you use which good

543
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:15,520
but man why do you have to block the little ai thing i'm just looking up how to pronounce a word

544
00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:19,600
in class and i gotta go to three different websites to find something that's not blocked by the school

545
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:25,120
i could set it up so you could you could go to like well yeah i also could just bring in my laptop to

546
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:29,220
school oh i guess yeah i guess that's true it's not recommended because they can't watch what you're

547
00:56:29,220 --> 00:56:35,520
doing on it but yeah just put a vpn on i don't want that thing on their network without a vpn true um

548
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:40,240
yeah so i think i think we've said most of what we're going to want to say about what did you call

549
00:56:40,240 --> 00:56:45,960
it uh call out culture call out culture and i call it cancel culture because i'm an old man

550
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:49,940
i don't know these fancy new terms this is an older term for it

551
00:56:49,940 --> 00:56:58,920
i've never heard it really oh my gosh oh my gosh it's it's older than than cancel culture

552
00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:04,260
that's really funny okay are you putting call out culture as a possible future episode

553
00:57:04,260 --> 00:57:08,600
no that's this episode oh okay if you want to call it that i don't really care what you name it

554
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:13,280
you're the one that names it so you got the choice on that right so yeah if y'all have a topic for us

555
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:18,120
something you'd like to pick our brains about um we'll either do it or we won't yeah you can give

556
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:23,520
we can also give advice if you need some life advice yes we will give you advice as long as you sign a

557
00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:30,440
waiver saying that uh you're not legally um holding us liable if you do the advice and then something

558
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:40,640
bad happens i'm not a therapist anymore um oh my god so is that illegal what do you mean you like

559
00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:43,840
pretending to be a therapist or a doctor when you're not is illegal

560
00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:54,560
uh yeah saying i used to be a therapist illegal i know yeah no i'm gonna have to the context i'm

561
00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:59,440
gonna have to dig into that because that'd be interesting because impersonating a police officer

562
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:07,180
is legal yeah but is impersonating a former police officer illegal i don't know there's a podcast it's

563
00:58:07,180 --> 00:58:13,380
like the therapy gecko i'm pretty sure it's this guy it dresses up in like a like a lizard oh yeah

564
00:58:13,380 --> 00:58:20,360
yeah i've seen his videos is it a podcast though i think it is i think he's on he might just be on

565
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:24,740
spotify yeah it doesn't mean it's a podcast it doesn't have an rss feed it's not a podcast although

566
00:58:24,740 --> 00:58:33,240
that is a different topic altogether um nomenclature yeah because a lot of people just nowadays

567
00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:40,820
anything where people are just talking is a podcast like any kind of show where it's like a talk show

568
00:58:40,820 --> 00:58:46,180
