Made by robots, for robots. Only read if you're weird.

Hey Man, what's going on? Brother? Oh, not mud WHOA, we're that. We try to act surprise bright the DV. Yeah, just shocked me. I was just sitting here looking around. I was like, Oh, Whoa, where, Oh, where did that come from? It? Listen if you're if you don't know, if you listen to the podcast. We do this in a video format and we've been updating our set very gradually and now there's a TV and Tim has kept his eyes closed all day, so he didn't know until he just started the episode and opened his eyes and saw. You know, actually what we did. I had a bus in here and the we episode started, we said move that bus, you know. And what's your face? What was the host of home makeover? Ryan seacrest? No, I want to say it wasn't clay ache, and it was. It was the other forgettable guy that looks like that. I betting, tip, tiping. That's right. So they're all the same person in my head. No, yea. So well, let me give the backstory on the vacuum lamp. Tell me about the vacum. Okay, so, if you can't see this, there's a lamp that's a Vacu. It's a hoover vacuum with a lamp on the top and where the handle goes. Yeah, they just turned it into a it's a late it's a full size hooper. It's a full okay, so the store behind it is that my aunt betty, who recently passed away, one of the most joyful people in the whole world. She worked for hoover for like, I don't know, a hundred years. I don't she work there for a years? Oh, yeah, anyway. So I don't know if this is a retirement gift or this was just like a thanks for working here. It was. It was definitely like a decades. They were like, Hey, you've worked here for like thirty years. Thanks, here's here's a vacuum that we've turned into a lamp. That you remember when Corporate America was doing that stuff? Yeah, it I mean it's like Christmas vacation where he's like the the jam of the Month Club Club. Yeah, that is the equivalent of that. And I saw it and I said, this is the most amazing thing I've ever seen. Yeah, it is. It is the most amazing and now it's part of our set. So happy about it. I'm thrilled. Yeah, similar thing my great aunt. She worked for Phillips for about fifty years, not a very joyful person, and for her retirement gift they gave her a TV. Yeah, yeah, I bet with our logo on it. Yeah, the TV's not on. Yes, not on. This is pretty. We should do that, though. That's pretty funny. We should just make a pretty time logo on to a TV. Well, I don't like the used. You know it. He was wonderful. Yeah, so was aunt. You're made up, aunt. Don't try to Hey, I'm just saying we've got two new great things in the office thanks to great ants. All Right, play that theme song. I hate mathematicians. I killed you to a fielduttle fuel duel. That's a soil Murado avilation into a type one. Why is space buppy Evelyn to day? I wanted to go the brand most life with a spotsor a tornado things night. So what are we learning about? Yeah, Oh, have you ever heard of the Kardashev scale? Say it again, the Kardashev scale. Yeah, isn't that the isn't that? It's kind of like a circus, but it's like the trappies people and they're like doing we they always have weird themes and all that stuff. That's Certisola, sorry to say. Kardaship Cart, Kardash Kardashe has sole Kardashev, kardashev scale, Kardashe of scale, the Kardashev scale, you know. So this is it's a so there's a guy named Nikolai Kardashev. He started a car company. Yeah, Chevy. Yeah, Kardashev, Kurdish. Yeah, now he was. That's actually a TV show on MTV that like we can turn any car into a Chevy and you're like, I mean, I don't know if that's a talent. Kind of like to have my right KARDASCHEF my ride. So the Kardashchev scale. How difficult is it to convert this into a Chevrolet vehicle? Yeah, it's. Well, it's my Handa, my two thousand to civic. Where does it lie on the card to show that's like it's probably like an eight on a Kardishev. You know, because I'm because a lot of her is the harm outom. Yeah, a lot of moving parts. You know, Camaro, it's a chevy already. So zero, zero on the kardashev scale. Yeah, people pull it in the the garage and they're like that's a chevy already. Yeah, pulled in the that's a soul Murado, you know, and they they're like, well, I couldn't tell it's a well, all it fell off was a little Chevy logo. We just put that right back on. Just stick it on. I would give this a point seven on the Kardaschev scale because it does. It didn't have the Chevy logo and that's fair. The narrator on the show is that truck voice in the commercials that's like yeah, the built forward to that guy, but he's just like this Toyota Pretius will soon be the Shiv real a prius. Didn't even change anything about it. That's a Chevy Toyota priest. Now he's don't call this is a chevy. It's a hyphenated it's like when your wife doesn't like you that much so she doesn't want to take your full last name, so she's hyphens yeah. No, so the Kardashev scale. It was introduced by this guy named Nikolai Kardashev. Yep, he was a Soviet astronomer, calm and what he would what he did was he but it was basically like hey, there is a three steps scale to the development of a civilization. And okay, he said that those three steps are based upon the consumption of energy within that civilization. So hold on, do you mean like actual like energy, like fuel, coal, turning into you know, using fuel as energy? Or do you mean like energy? No, like fuel, okay, okay, okay, you meant like vibes. You know. This is a type to vibe. Yeah, yeah, definitely a type to civilization. Yeah, that's another MTV show, but type to know was the the hard to show. Type to was a Tlz show about people with type to diabetes. My life is a type to you know. No, so actual power consumption. Not. Okay, vibes. And basically what the reason he did this was? He said he was trying to theorize, basically the barriers to break to become a multi galactic civilization. Okay, and he realized that energy was the probably the number one issue for these because it takes a lot of power to get to new plant propeller for Thees, well, I mean the to propel the ships forward, to like literally he'll get there. Yeah, yeah, there and then make us civilization have advances in technology require what your is this? He just going off of? Okay, so this feels like a weird scale to go off of. Let's let's let's go through. It'll start to make sense as we get through it. Okay, so it starts type zero. Very good starting. Yeah, the zero. That's where I would like it to start. So zero on. This can be super annoying. Started to start a too. You know, Zo is us. We're a type zero civilization. We are. Yeah, we why? We saw so. The idea here is that I drove here a type zero civilization. I used gasoline in my car. Yes, let me. I fueled myself here Feld by. Yeah, I wandered the gas that I went to the gas I went to the gas station last night, was fueling up and I just sit here. I was like, I'm a little fuel fool, you know, it's so I'm full of fuel, of a fuel thoughts. Some one of the gas station last night called that a fuel duel. You know, I killed you to a fuel duel. Fuel Duel. Yeah, you were just drown those yeah, like it. Well, I mean that's that's against the rules. It's been done, but it's frowned upon. That's a fuel duel foul. Yeah, that's a yeah, it is. It is. You get it so well. I how are we? Type Zero if I drove here? Yeah, so, type zero. What a Type Zero Society is? Is? So type threes don't exist. I've already I've already played out the rest of the scale. Most likely don't. Is this an alien thing? I mean it, are you freaking leading me this? This isn't a man who carbet at the beginning and you were hiding aliens up your sling? Is it? This is this is a human racing, human race thing. This is a human race thing, but it's not. It's not unique, not awful limits to Al Yeah, aliens could also be somewhere on the scale if they existed. But Anyway, so where type zero civilizations? Type Ero civilization? We as a human race. Yes, okay, we have the ability to harness energy and use it for technology to do all sorts of different things. Okay, the problem is we have only consumable energy. So all of our energy, we use it, it's gone. Okay, it's not renewable. We have some of these renewable energy sources that were venturing into and are powering certain things, but our society is not powered by renewables. It's largely powered by consumables. So, okay, at type zero, the evlation into a type one, evelation, that's fine, go ahead. I felt it. Yeah, I felt it. The evelation into I hate that you're trying to say elevation and evolution at the same time. I get what you're doing. I like it. But evlation, the evilation to a type one society, is when you Keeter, say it enough and all you whatever. I'm making it a word. You say a word enough and people understand what you mean. Eventually it. That actually is how words beg yeah, so whatever, all right, evelation. So it evilated Evelyn, evely in today, we could like, we could just quit at any time. I thought of this. I thought we could just stop doing this show. Yeah, we should guess what grows the economy. Okay. So, so type onesivil Isan. The difference they here is now it's at a point mostly renewable. It's totally renewable. Not at a point where not even mostly renewable. No, it's totally renewable because it's ats at a point right now. We're at a point where, if we depleted our resources, our civilization as we know it is over. Yeah, we cannot Wi. People been alarming the bail the guy. Guys were running out of the STUF. You know, we're hey, you know, but we don't care. Yeah, we don't give a car like, Hey, I'm a type zero, you know, it's like it's like the indigram. Yeah, I'm a zero. It's okay, I'm zero. Yeah, yeah, what is that sledge where? I don't care. It's the consumer. I just consume everything. That actually should be a type. It should be. Yeah, just a person who's just awful. So it's a hundred percent renewable. Okay, and this could be a lot of things. Obviously we have a few options that we've started down. Yeah, what are our current renewable resources? Solar, when hydro, and then there's also like atomic and nuclear. Okay, the issue with all of those is they don't provide enough energy at this point to power our civilization. Or like with the issue with nuclear, it's all there's we don't have the we have fusion but not fission. So we have it to where you can take other things put together, but we can't take one thing and split it to get power. We can split it to blow a bunch of people up, but we can't split it to get power. Yeah, so fusion and Fission. Yeah. So we are weird at this point where we're almost like we've got our toes in the water of a type one, but we're not there. We've dipped our toes in the yeah, nuke juice. We're not there yet. The interesting other caveat to these civilizations is it's the side of having the ability to have that power. Kardasheva signs like a wattage number that you're gaining from it to okay, but that's but he's not based these off of things that already exist or have been done. This is a theoretical model for civilization to be able to ascend to the level of being like a galactic civilization. Okay, okay, okay, okay, because of the amount of power it would take. So sure, saying, when we get to this point, we could be a civilization that is colonizing all. When was he? When was he theorizing these things in the s? Okay, but the other side. So he was just high. I mean he was just like he's a yeah, I mean he's the thing. Man Kardish, Kardashev is my name right, and I have this you know scale. You're a zero and you're like, what are you talking about? He's like, nothing is real right now. Nothing it. We're all Zeros. There's there's two sides to this, though. Is there's the side of okay, in each set of the scale you have to have the energy source that you're consuming, okay, but it's not just having that source and you're a civilization existing off that source, is having control of that source. So the other side of this is, not only do we have but that's I'm saying about the solar we don't have control over solar. No. So the the side of the side of to get us to a type one, we would have to have the ability to control essentially the weather, to be able to control wins. They working on their arms. There's conspiracies. Yeah, I know, I yeah, I've seen the conspiracy video. Su Sees that there are. There have been, like there are CCI documents that there's been like research, but I don't know if they've. We are. Here's the thing. I feel like in CIA meetings, you know, they're sitting around, they're like hey, guys, what do we gotta figure out? Right, and someone just goes wet, figure how to control the weather, and then someone's like all, write that down, and then then, and then conspiracy theorists go. Do you know? They've just talked about it. You know, and that's where it's like, I didn't say, here's what actually happens. They're like what, you and I talked about a lot of stuff. They here's what the CIA, the CEI since down there meetings. They said, what's something we should try to do? And they say, I don't know, pull up Info Warscom what I think, yeah, what do they think we're doing? That's actually try that. It would help we had a real TV, if we could watch my TV at home. It's just a screenshot of INFO wars. It's not even like it's a very blurry photo of aalence Jones, just, you know, very blurry. Yeah, because it's mid frame movie. Yeah, I didn't even grab like a solid frame, but anyway, yeah, they pulled, but they go, wow, what do they think we're up to? But they think we're doing so yeah, so they would have to kind of like when people complain about detective movies and they're like, Oh, you just showing people how to get away with Cry Times. I'm like, I don't really watch detective movies, but I only that's how it goes down, guys. That's fiction. This is data Tuesday. Tuesday, Tuesday, that's right, that's when new episodes drop on Patreon. Patreons a way to get early access to episodes and their content and exclusive merchandise. And we're not going to stop there, because we had a private discord with our host and producers in it for less than seventeen cents a day. That's right, that's five dollars a month. You two can be a patreon supporter and not here advertisements in this freaking podcast anymore text till in the six six eighty sixty six. Otherwise I'll come to your house, I will find you, I will destroy everything that's good in your life until we're the only thing left. Anyway, here's another advertisement. So they said this type one civilization has control over the weather, so they could move clouds out of the way for solar energy, they could create when manipulate the waves. And Yeah, this guy was to total di I have hate vision. I hate that this guy comes up with this and we're like this is a good theory. Yeah, we should like we should like really remember this, we should write this down. So the idea is that this is all the stuff that that crazy guy as starbucks used to say to me. Do you remember that, that guy who told me his moods controlled the weather here, that where he's a yeah, I'm just never a bad day, just light's rain. He's straight up was just like, yeah, it's raining us, I'm just having a bad day. And here you have a bad day because it's raining, and he's like no, it's raining because I'm having a bad day. I was like that's weird, Mike, and he was like well, you should see what's happened to people I get mad at. You. Don't want to see me lose my temper because I've struck people were lightning before that. I told you this stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like that's the guy that was asking my book. Yeah, he did want me to remove he also one time I was this, I was a US snapchat still, you know, and I would take a like a selfie on snapchat. Why were we all doing that? Whatever, and he was in the back of one of them. He came out. He was hey, don't take pictures of me, and I was like, I'm I promise you, man, I'm not. But after that I was, after that, a hunderd. I was nothing but pictures of him. I don't know if I really did do that. A Lot I do. He got banned from that starbucks. That's a yeah, he got bag. He got lifetime band because he lost his heck at that place because they put in real sugar in one of his things instead of like the fake sugar, and he's diabetic, and so he screamed to them like they were trying to kill him. Oh my God, he was like, I just know you guys are trying to get rid of me, and they're like, honestly, we weren't, but now now sure would love you just never showed up again, now that you now, that you put it that way, that guy has a scale. Just as worthy of my time of hearing about is this guy. What are you doing? I didn't know that was gonna happen. Okay, go back to that. What is your background on your computer? It's like some tree. It's like a art, like an I don't know what the art style like. kind of like have to squint, a drawn like scene of like some trees and a river and a sunset, and I don't see that. Do you see that? Well, it's because this something your therapist held up was like what do you see, and you were like, I see like a drawing tree and like a river and stuff. Yeah, okay. Anyway, so I'm saying that this scale sounds stupid, but go ahead. So the idea here is that they can move the clouds and control your renewable resource. You have to AI control that renewable resource to be a type one, type one. Yeah. So that way the controls the important piece, because now it's like, okay, you're not reliant on outside forces, your self reliant. Yeah, but this isn't this all, this is what humanity's been trying to do forever. This's what we're trying to do with a freaking pandemic, is that we're sitting here trying to control something that is beyond our control. Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely, but the idea is that, I mean the idea here is we would figure out the technology to figure out how to manipulate natural events in our mom I think the earth's going to rebel against that. Honestly, I mean, maybe I have known the Earth to listen to rage against the machine. So I just we don't have to do this. So, so a type one civilization. Yeah, in this model, he kind of what he means to you, as he says, assuming every civilization functions like every human civilization has in history, meaning we are we hoard resources and we want to expand our footprint. Yeah, and takeover as much as we can. A type one civilizations logical next step is to colonize its local solar system and taraform other moons and planets, like we're trying to. That's where there trying to do my own and things like that. Yes, the issue with that is that takes a ton of energy, and so that's why this type one civilization has to exist, because it's going to have to create a ton of energy on Earth to export to these scar where we talked about, like we don't have the infrastructure ability for the metaverse to exist. Yes, yeah, yeah, so this is the this idea is setting laying the rails for us to be able to become a multiplanetary species. Okay, so then a type two is where things start getting I mean if this, if type one wasn't like type two, you're going to hate. So type to this is a situation where they've harnessed the civilization is harnessed figuring things out on their host planet, but as also colonize other planets and figured it out. They've they have the it's the it's the word host planet that I feel like. When you were planning this, you saw the term host planet and you were like, yeah, I'm really going to ruin Jaron's Friday just way. I don't even want to know what tier three is this point. Go ahead. So they've could they've finished doing their host planet? Yeah, so they've. They've figured their host planet out. They have absolutely control over the energy. It's renewable on their host planet and they've replicated the process on at least one other planet in their solar system. Oh Gee, so they've terriformed it. They've created an atmosphere, created plant life and then implemented and renewable energy there and gained control over the renewable energy of the new plant as well. So this is when we do. We figure out earth completely. We know how to change the weather on earth and all them. Yeah, and we've also done this in Mars. We've also yeah, on Mars, literally any other planet, another moon, at least one mother could be multiple. Okay, this is a type to civilization. Okay, a type three is the expansion outside of our solar system into other solar systems within our galaxy. This is going to take a monumental amount of power. You're saying we've figured out our host galaxy. We take it, figured out our whole solar system. We're going to expand within our own galaxy to other star clusters that have sold habital solar systems within our crowd within the Milky Way. To do this is going to take a monumental amount of energy. Yeah, travel those distances and especially to transport that energy those I think that people would kill our planet in that venture. We can get to that, because there's some interesting I think that people would. They would sacrifice all of humanity in the name of expansion. Yeah, there's in the name of evilation. We're just trying to evolve, valve, avow evolved. Yeah, it's fine, evil, evil. Yeah, no, you're finding out right now how dumb your word is. I like this. So ever, leading to three. You have multiple planets. Yeah, you've kind of you really conquered yourself have multiple planets, and you mean that in the way that it sounds. You've got multiple planets, you've conquered your host solar syst so worried about a one world order? You know, two worlds. Okay, here's where you're gonna get mad. Ascending into a type of three civilization is going to require an astronomical amount of power. Yeah, so this civilization that's ascending into type three is going to have to harness the energy of its son and there's actually a theoretical plan for this called the dicen sphere. And so what all want? Sphere? A DICEN sphirits. Yeah, that's a little sphere vacuums that runs around the apartment. Yeah, you just roll it, roll it into the sun as just sucks up the in gee energy and rolls back. Yeah, and then just the guy from those commercials as I was like so poetic. He's like we're capturing the power the DISON cartles. Yeah, oh my gosh. Yeah, that guy. That guy acts like he had he's got the cool fans. He acts like he has figured out how to control the weather. He's just like, isn't this incredible? He does with his fancy says, stick your hand through my fans. It's not chopping your hand up. Where's the air coming from? I don't even know. Honestly, figure it out. I paid. No, we figured this out by accident. Hey, can we? Can you be a favor? Can you not talk about, like, you know, dison fans and stuff in front of my hoover vacuum lamp? Makes it makes the lamp. Yeah, selfconscious. please. My Hoover Vacuum lamp is listening right now. Yeah, have you ever seen a hoover fan? So, I'm a hoover fan. I that's what dyson's fear. Picture a massive ring that just wraps around the sun. I hear it in your voice that you think this is stupid and I like that. There we go, and you like. Picture a massive ring. All right, it's this massive ring that wraps all the way around the sun, and I'm the lad is this a thing we've built? It's a thing we've thought of. No, I'm saying in the scenario, yeah, we built a built a thing that wraps around the sun him. Yeah, so this thing, this solar station, okay, way station is we figured out a way to make something that's radiation through. Okay, what was the standalized job? He was an astronomer. Okay, yeah, and what did he astronomy all day? What did he do? This is what a statters do. They is it about? That's right, sing here thing. I go, HMM, I sure would like to do that, because it sounds like you can just think of anything with zero consequences theory. You know, obviously we can't do this right now, but I'd be like we, we, okay, think of us. Think about this right. Think, what if? What if, we said, a bus that drove people to the sun and they just scooped up some energy and came back. So we don't know. That's how the energy doesn't work in the sun, you know, it's a color back with their jars, its like I got this from the you could check out my quick books and voice for that. Would love to. How are you? I learned to the Sun at all I got was this dumb jar of the sun juice. They have a drink out. They're called Earth Ed and that's weird, you know, just mud. So I'm just saying, how stupid is it that he can busy he is here me like, all right, here's my theory. Guys, we got to build something that wraps a round the sun. Now, I know it sounds absurd, but this is type three, right, actually a decent bit of logic behind it, because he so, he used math to prove all this stuff. And I say, this is a person who my job is also make believe, right, I make up steer, the same job, and then we sit here we do this. This is my job at work right now. Yeah, and I think that this job is stupider. So he did a bunch of math to figure how much energy it would take to do the things that this society would do, to become a galactic society. Okay, figure out the and then he did the math to figure it out the only source of that energy, and then did the math to conceptually figure out is it possible for us to build something like this if our technology got to that point? So it's all rooted at Nath. Yeah, but mass also made up. I mean, mathematicians are probably disagree with you. That's fine, but anyways, so I don't care, so that if I give a crap what mathematicians think of me, freaking professional nerds. I don't care. Oh Yeah, what are you? Where do you go, where do you get a job as a mathematician? Yeah, my we're you going to jobs in astronomer. My iphone does your job every day. Yeah, to plus too, for done. So the this dicense fhere is just it wraps all the way around the sun and it's this big space station facing it, solar panels, and so it's just extracting in a extremely energy at all times because so close, and then it's able to ship that's not catching on fire. No, yeah, so it's they figured out a way to make it like not affected by the radiation. Yeah, affected by the heat. It's crazy. But I will say this feels like my whole Mech class in high school where we just like, you know, we got into our different personality groups and then we just described where our dream wedding would be. And like the people who are like really into fun stuff was again, I'm gonna Skydive in, you know, me and my bride, or just going to lay it at the altar, and it's like, well, how does that all? It will figure it out. Yeah, and then they get married at Vegas. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying is, okay, whatever, you get it. Listener, you agree with me? Here's the thing though. Here's the thing with this, though, I think about all the technology we have. It was stupid. It was a stupid idea. When people are like, Oh, one day will do that, it was like, no, we won't. That's dumb. What what do you think was stupid? Literally everything, the Internet, going to the Moon in general, leaving the planet in general, all these ideas flying. Do any of those things? Flank fly, he's in real. I've said this. We didn't go to the moon flying. Is it real? When I got a plane yesterday, all it does is and they throwing some turbulenes. Why? Yeah, zero reason. It's those rides that did. They just got bored. They were like, we should like add some bumps and stuff to this. So people think it's real. Are they? You Go Fu full? Yeah, they are's bumpy. Let's guys bumpy. Everybody is. It makes sense to me at all. We talked about the sky is bumpy and there's nothing we can do about it. Switch lanes. What are you talking about? where? What are my tax dollars going to fix the potholes in the sky? Okay, I saw. I know where a type zero society is, because the air is bumpy and that doesn't make sense. Get the bumps out of my air. So you're saying that just be okay, whatever. Yeah, so all the stuff we've we've done is also stupid to caveman. That makes it someone who hasn't seen it happen. And I mean theoretically, like we could build something that could withstand extreme temperatures and withstand radiation, sure, and extract the energy, like I mean, it wouldn't be easy, but we probably could. Okay, then we have to colonize Mars first. Oh, yeah, I mean that's this is a type we're extending into type three. Three, yeah, we're stepping into three of the final okay. And so then this expands from dycensphere to what's called a Metrio Chaka, the trio shka brain. I don't know why. That's your brain in there. Margharita, Margaritaville, Margaritaville. At the Sun, you'll get real ted here. So we take buses of people right to Jimmy Buffett's Margarita bill on the side wild. Yep, it's five o'clock on the Sun. So the Matrio Matrioshka brain. that. How do you tell time on the sun. You look at the Sun by when the earth sets. Well, where's the Oh, which way is the earth facing? I can't see it's on the other side of the Sun. which way is Mars face? You can't see it. It's on the other side of the side. You can't see anything. If you're that close to the sun, you're blind at that point. Just look at the sun's got sunts. It's okay, okay, okay, okay, the mat they ought by that time they've created sunglasses that work. BEOUT. You get it right. Any problem you have, by that time they figured it out. figure. That's what I hate. All right, whatever, the MATRIOSHCA brain. It's a dicense fhere. Okay, a lot. So there's like a bunch of those rings. Yeah, yeah, and you're just getting so much power from the Sun. I want that camera angle. I don't know if that exists, but just a little. But you know, you get it just so much power. What the heck? Okay, whatever. So is that a type three or is that a type for wow, what's the biggest type? When do you finish? When are you done? So this is this is a extending into the type three. So this is a type two will do this to become a type three. Okay, so the end of a type to civilization, it harnesses the power of its own son, which, remember, control is the other side of this. Yeah, so the this civilization would figure out how to monitor the life of the Sun essentially and be able to manipulate it to event to essentially avoid a SUPERNOVA. So it keeps it from ever killing itself and makes it renewable and is able to like feed it and just keep it all yeah, so it's kind of like a neal pat sons getting too big. You know, got us sit in the fire crew and there is out there hose in it down, just with those sunglasses that they figured out. They're just that loading the fire truck. The yeah, believe you're floating space. Shoot the water, just floating. Just be guys on the ladder. Yeah, why are we wheels on this thing? Why are there wheels of this case? We have to lay it and then he's up there just floating space. And why is space bumpy? How is that? We get artist the power of the sun, but we can't get the bumps out of space. Come on, guys, wait, will we be type three? Oh my gosh, she is the bumps. Yeah, okay, Co Co, Cooqua pave the SPACEPLUX. So have you heard of tilling podcast March? That's right, we have a merged store full of tilling bread and tea's, hoodies, mugs and so much more. We also make new designs for every single episode, but those are only available for a limited time, so get them while they're hot. Text till into six, six eight hundred sixty six to get your till and March today. Yeah, you figured out how to control the Sun. Yeah, both to keep it alive and not let us go SUPERNOVA and kill everybody. But which type is spaced him living? Because apparently he lives in the future. Well, space is the future, but space time is still in a zero. So, yeah, we can hear by his lack of quality in his well, I dude, he's there's no ways type one with a microphone quality like that. So, but the other side of it is they also have the power, the ability to manipulate relative mass in the Sun, and this helps with powering, but it also helps with, and here's where things get crazy, this okay, with gravitational pulls. So now this civilization has the ability not just to manipulate. It's Sun, but it's all the whole solar system and the routes of the rotation of these planets. So if an asteroid were to come through, they could steer and planet out by controlling the mass distribution of the sun. Crazy, crazy idea. All powered by Alexa. Alexa, Neptune moved up to twenty degrees dom dom Alexa turned to orange. You see that, kids, that's control. Yeah, Alexa. Tell Them Mars a scary story, this voice of God. So I hate this whole thing. So now is the next phase. So this is a sending into a true type three. They've harnessed the power of their host star and they are now traveling into other solar systems within their own galaxy and repeating the process. So, just like they did with planets, they are now doing multiple solar systems throughout the galaxy, which is easier. What you figured out? Your Star? Yeah, other stars, whatever. Yeah, you roll in, take the star, take the start. This is my start. Now what is some what if some other galaxy rolls into our galaxy? That is like this is our stars. Is Our star? Now you're rough. Yeah, it'd be a full out war. So Kardashev said, the next step is to go intergalactic, to leave the Milky Way and to try to repeat the process in a new galaxy, but solar systems and star clusters in this other galaxy. That's going to take in astronomical amount of power. Remember when I said that last time? Yeah, this is even bigger. I assumed I would if they like. Actually, that's going to be a lot easier at that point. So the idea here, Kardashev ended it here and said I don't think it's possible to get past this point. Some people have picked up where he left off. They were like created a type. Yeah, I mean, we've already got some rings. What's that possible? Cardi show. What do you mean? It's not possible to get past this? Well, he didn't know by that time. We have our floating fire trucks and all that. He didn't know of any more powerful force that could be extracted. Okay, now we we know that, at least we believe that most galaxies have a black hole at the center of it, and the theory now for a type for civilization, as it's harnessing the energy of the black hole at the center of the Galaxy. How there's no explanation stressing me. There's a dyce in sphere with a bunch of solar energy power panels and like those in the solar energy isn't working from the black hole. Turn on the black holes lights. So they're hardest the energy of a black hole. The way they're getting the energy. They don't have the slightest idea, they said. These scientists that are coming up with type four say we don't have the site of idea how they would do it. Make it up. But so you differently goes literally make up away. But, but, and the reason for that is because I don't understand black holes enough. But they said, but there's a lot of energy in a black hole, clearly, and so if we could figure out how that energy is, what's coming from and how it's how it's being happening being, then maybe we can harness it and use how it's being happening. We just fear clear out. If we just figure out how it's being happening, then they can evilate to the next thing. Yeah, who's yeah, exactly, holly, him so much smarter than you. Sometimes you ever see somebody and you just go that it would an idiot. What? Yeah, and when you say being happening, I was just like, Golly, I've five I've thought it life. Definitely say this person come to involved. Weave an office together, to show together. You know, I gotta get out before either. I have. Our kids know each other. Okay, so harnessing the power of the back of need that being happening. There's no our kids to be friends ours the black hole. There's no theory of how the heck we're going to do that. Obviously this is the best step of where we want to how would you do it? So my guess? Hmm, I would actually, and I thought about this before, something similar to the dison vacuums, Uh Huh. Send something in there crushed and then figure out a way to get it out. I would even just be like one of those little paddle boards, just gigantic it just before goes in. It's some energy back. You just have a bunch of astronauts the paddle boards at the edge of the black hole. Just, yeah, much power. By that time they won't be astrouts, will be people. By that time they'll be the robots. They'll be the robots will figure all this stuff out. Yeah, robots will figure it out for us. They for us, they'll kill us, will be gone. This is robots take over it. They'll take over and this allows, this gives enough energy to allow intergalactic travel, which will have to include lightspeed at the least. Yeah, to pull it off, and the process will now begin. And Multiple Galaxies for the type for type five. No, partship was done. C He was like this is impossible. What is type five? Someone added a type five to say this society, type five society, figures out how to be multidimensional, if the multi di versus a an actual thing. This society figures out how to go into other universes and colonize that universe and do everything they did in theirs and then harness the energy. This is with people and their desire to be more. You don't talk about like. This is real crazy. This is real, and I'm like, I'm sitting here thinking, like why why would you want? Point is enough? We are consumers. We are so obsessed with bringing in more stuff. Yeah, it's an obsession. It really is. That I know. I'm telling I'm I'm listening to this episode. Yeah, so the idea is you get to that point and you run out of possible consumption. These go first, what if there's another universe and let's figure out how to get there, and we fear how to do that. Yeah, where it's like I can go see me and the other universe and be like hey, we're better than you over here, exactly. I am your Lord. Now, pretty close, pretty close, which coincidentally leads us right into the final theorized type, which has actually been named Type Omega. Oh's become God's Kinda this one, this one's any buses mormonism go that way. That is yeah, yeah, that's fair. Actually, so this one, the idea is now you had all of this stuff, you get your own dimension, you get I get my own universe. It's like, I get it's like people who have those old train sets and stuff, but it's just the you know, your owne little universe, universe. No. So the idea here is they figured out all this stuff, but they've also figured out how to manipulate three things, being space, time and matter. Is the Omega, okay, society and the obviously space in time. We've heard a lot about that, like right, time travel space, like you've been space and can basically teleport. There's no more bumps in space because you're been you're flattening. Yeah, it's great, flat space, flat space, flat space. Theory, smooth space, smooth out this space. But the matter was a really interesting thing. I actually listen to a podcast where guy was talking about this. He said, imagine being in a situation where you have control of the molecules around you. So, say you're trapped underwater. You can manipulate that hto change the hydrogen, all the oxygen, and now you just have a bunch of oxygen and you can now breathe in that system. Yeah, area. And like, you know what makes it possible, astronomy, and you know we're just, we're just a couple math equations away. Well, that's the thing. We do know. Like in a lab we're able to manipulate like matter by adding in different molecules and we understand how molecules work and stuff. So if we could figure out in real time how, outside a last to be able to change stuff, this is what newcules always sucked. That is that there are limits to what we can do. Maybe, all right, or the guy actually continue this this illustration said, or you could just change your own molecular composition to be able to survive off breathing water instead of breathing. Just what are you just which is probably I can breathe there now fills. I don't know how it works. He did it either. Is just theorizing. Oh Yeah, payer drove my car to the river earlier. But Luckily I'm Alec Class Myself, molecularized, moleculized myself and having these sweet gills. Check about these, sweet are you into these? Or I can mileculize myself differently. Get about, I can be whatever you want. Let me change. Yeah, that's the idea this guy. This guy went on to say he's he's like, he's a picture this though, he's like. Or say you're in a situation where you, I don't know, we're out in the middle of the ocean. You can just bunch the molecules together so you can walk on the water. Or say you're at a party and you want to show off at the pool and you're like, I can walk on this too. Were you going to Jesus thing? He say. Why did he said? Say You got a party and there's no wine. He said, just take all the water and just change the MI cler cob. Well, you're saying is good. What this guy was saying is that God as a member of an Omega civilization. That's what he's saying, and the theory continues that if an Omega civilization has ability to manipulate all these different things, space, time, the matter, yeah, and has ability to travel to multidimensions and has that ability to manipulate, theoretically, and I'll make a civilization would be creating new dimensions and universes. So this is almost the Omega to civilization, is a civilization that has a sent to this level and is now in the act of creating universes. That's got, that's where we live it, that's got. So this is so essentially, we've pulled this idea that Kardashev said, hey, it'd be cool if we could go live in space, and they've said here's how we become God. I know. That's what I'm that's what we're saying, is that it's just like humans have, that desire to just more. Yeah, yeah, to make ourselves bigger and greater and expand our reach and how much we have, which is, I don't know, crazy. Yeah, and you can help us expand our reach by supporting us on Patreon help us expand to a type of one podcast. Yeah, so here's the issue. Bunch people will come after the fact saying that getting to a type one civilization is impossible because, okay, every step along this way there's obviously a ton of barriers. The technicolological advancement is one of the biggest. But sure you run the risk at any point in this that your civilization just gets wiped out before it gets there? Oh for sure. Yeah, the interesting thing is the further down the scale you are, the less likely you have to take the first step up the wrong because if you're an Omega civilization, you're in multiple dimensions. You have control over all. This matter is very pretty much anything the other series that people in Omega are sabotaging us from reaching type one. I haven't heard that, but maybe I could see call an act of God. God is trying to keep us from becoming type blood civilization. Maybe I thought. Maybe, I mean maybe what they're saying. What this what the theory goes here is if we're a type zero civilization, we have no control over our host planet, our host O, our host galaxy, other outside galaxies or other outside dimensions. So natural disasters can destroy our civilization in a second, yeah, and end the possibility of US ever getting there. Also, natural disasters can destroy our civilization or set our civilization back. where our civilization isn't destroy but set back severely to where it's not gonna progress. Also, in all of this there are so many different opportunities and people and play who. You know, wars will break out over who gets to be in charge of these things. That's the other big thing is war, especially as this expands, never goes away, right, because the kind of key tenant then mores and the Earth Start Interplanet, Inter innerplant with it, wars, fighting planet or planet out. I kept saying plant, plant, war. Yeah, plant wars. That's the thing, cardish, the main piece of carderships think, is humanity hoards resources, yeah, and always tries to get more. Yeah, and so as long as humanity is doing that, it doesn't matter where you're at on the scale, war is still going to be a thing. And the more resources that are up for grabs, the more power that's up for grabs, the more war will be a thing. Type Zero. With the where we're at, we are on this precipice of having the ability to harness a bunch of energy and so far, the one time we've done this successfully with nuclear power. Instead of using it to power the world, used it to just blow a bunch of people up. And so it does. It does matter a lot who gets this power in the first place to take that step, and theoretically nobody would use it properly, right or in the process to do this outside of the idea, in the process of trying to figure out the energy, you make a mistake and blow everybody up and everybody dies. So there's just an insane amount of barriers. Yeah, to take that first step. How we could if we followed the math. We did the math. Here's the problem. We built the dicense fhere in phase one. We're not even type one DICEN I fear won't fit on earth. You can't build the buildings. You got to build apart and then launch that into space and hope it connects with your other one. No, yeah, they would build it in space. They would. Obviously, yeah, they would. But yeah, so, but that's you know, they'll figure that out. I'll figure it out. So the idea is as you're going but as you're going through each phase, it becomes exponentially easier to move to the next one because once you're in type one, you have control over the earth. So now you don't have to worry about like ice ages or like yellow stone erupting or things like that, because you have control of all that those factors. Now it's just outside factors. And then war that could screw you up. Yeah, and then as you go to the next one, it's okay, now we have plant to control of our our solar system, so we not the word about asteroids or a star going Super Nova. But our galaxies, black hole can still suck us in, another galaxy could glide with us. Or War, war, but as as you continue down this route, yeah, it gets to the point where literally the only possible problem as war, like even for an Omega Society. And accident doesn't matter, honestly, for a I. For we're whatnestly for a type, for a type of three, even a type three, you'd most likely you're not going to have an accident that ruins the entire civilization. You'll probably kill a lot of people, but you're probably not going to destroy your entire civilization. There will be survivors that can carry on, but war will be an ever present threat along this entire scale. And so there's a lot of people who say we would never make it even a type one. But even if we'd made it to type one, I don't think we can make it any further down because of war. Because, yeah, we would kill each other, we would use the power to kill each other to try to get more, because the whole idea of the scale is to get more. So I just love how encouraging these things are sometimes. Well, here's the encouraging side of it. So a bunch of people have said, well, here's the encouraging side of it. We don't have to be stage Omega. Stay doing you can be zero. Zero is because you can be a zero. But we know who is Oma, our God, is a stage Omega civilization. I was with you. Yeah, I was with you. Yeah, now, but for real, though, is that there is a I think that as far as me in my life, I would like to actively fight against the desire for more. Yeah, because you know it will kill you. Yeah, it will, and and even like, like it'll kill your society, but it'll kill you personally. Yeah, now, I do want more things in the eye, I want more things in the bookshelf. I want TV. That's real, but maybe a dison vacuum for that corner, a Dison lamp? Only you, Babe. No, but I'm saying that. You know, there's its stresses me out that there's like a race for just everything, complete and total control. Yeah, yeah, because I feel like every time in my at the micro level, I'm not talking about macro level like world control. I'm saying all the Times that I have tried to take control of my life I have severely messed it up further. Absolutely, absolutely, yeah, it's a problem and it's just because I didn't know how to build a sphere. If I would have built my dicens fear better, then I would have had more control. Oh my gosh, that's the thing. People, some people, so some scientists, are saying, well, Hey, if if this is the scale, we should see evidence of these other societies out there that have made it to this level. But we don't. And so there's two sides of that. Some people say, well, yeah, nobody gets out of type zero. Everybody kills each other before we make it the zero, or do they get killed by something else? or it's literally impossible to control earth. Yeah, maybe I mean we're seeing that with we have the most advanced technology that we've ever known to exist and a pandemic is bringing us to our knees. Yeah, you know, and I think this is not the last one that's going to happen. Yeah, this is absolutely true, absolutely true, and so that's what I'm saying, is like, yeah, so it could. It could just be impossible, but the to kind of prevailing sides of the argument are it's never happened because of war, yeah, or because of other natural disasters, for accid instead of killed the society before I had the chance. Would it be great if we can figure out how to control tornado? Sure, will we? Well, but that comes a weapon war. Yeah, that's the thing. That's the thing and that's the point that's always made, is we send it more truth, as we learn more control black holes. It's just send a black hole to him. Let's just send the tornado with our name on it. It's got the logo. Yeah, yeah, sponsored, sponsored by HIV. You know, grosser Storre's gonna go like mob stirt. Is that a high? I didn't want to go. I didn't want to go like big brands. I wanted to go the brand most likely to sponsor a tornado. I will sponsor that torn it up. Yeah, yeah, just put our Qr Code on it. Sponsored by Dave Ramsey. Co Solution. Here's a solution. So the other side of the argument is that, well, if a society did ascend to one of these levels, it has control over its natural resource. Yeah, so it would look like natural events when they were controlling stuff. Yeah, we want to know, because it looks natural from afar unless they showed up in our in our endemic. I see where you're going. The only way we know is if they showed up and they started building a dicense fhear, like if we looked at the sun and we saw a streak of fire trucks driving across it. That seems Huh, seems like a type three going on up there. Well, the time, maybe a type to getting two three. Yeah, but I mean, I don't know. What do I know? Yeah, and that's the other side of it. So something I don't even know what's being happening right now as a perfect, perfect transition, because some people say, well, if there are societies better out there, they're doing that, even if we can't detect it, because they are so good doing things. Naturally, they got all their herbs and stuff. Yeah, they're, they're they're sitting US Tornados. What you're saying? Yeah, even if we don't know. No, what they're saying is they wouldn't care. What she probably heard the argument where it's like, I mean, when they're at the level where they're harnessing the energy of suns or black holes, why do they care about us? Be Many people on Earth. They come to us, they see us building stuff, just like we look at answer. We like all look at their both a cute little hill. Yeah, and but you know, some people stand over there building a hill with a magnifying glass and look at them build a little hill. Yeah, pray them with those. The firefighters are out there like say, look at this stray, those guys on earth. Yeah, gotta. And then there's people who argue, well, are you spraying it because Mike is mad at starbucks today? No, I think he's mad because I'm spraying them. I can hear him, though he's pretty ticks. It's because, yeah, he hears me too. So, but then the other other side of the argument that's come up, and this is the last one, because we can just go forever. But the other side, that's come up as well. You can't see the other side. That implies two sides. You have to say another thing. No, there is this because because people are like, well, how I haven't we heard anything. While some people say if we heard anythink well, some people will say, well, we have, and that's the Omega civilization, the creators all Zation. Yeah, we have. It's called the old test, called God. Yeah, it's a the creator civilization, who created our whole universe. Yes, who took dust and change the molecular composition of it and said this is now human. And everyone said they look dumb, they got weird things hang off of them. It's arms, those are arms, legs. Cool, I thought you'd liked ears, Gaybrie. Oh, don't like that. Last time, last universe Gabriel, you said it'd be helpful of the cold crab stuff, so I gave him arms. Yeah, but I don't know, maybe we could try again later. Let's see how some plays out. The type zero times. Ye. So, yeah, so the chances of us, I mean there are some who say like in the next forty to two hundred years we could ascend. Hey, I hate astronomers. I hate mathematicians. I hate scientists. That's such a fat window. You know, at the next forty two, two hundred years probably possible. For in the next like forty, like just round it up safe honestly. So the next you know, forty seven to two hundred thirteen years, I would say, because we definitely, if you say far enough, no one can. We definitely have one foot over the line where it's like we we're dabbling with renewables. Okay, see, I apparently is trying to control the weather. They've talked about it, they've talked about we've talked about it. Things are the last I podcast is apparently tried to control the weather. Yep, that's what Tillon stands for. Time, time, endurance with it, I I. Yeah, because we're stupid. Yeah, we have YEP, learning. Okay's start over here we go. Okay, okay, here's what till what actually stands for terrestrial terrestrial integrity, licensing loops network. We started a terrestrial's like, oh, I can see other build integrity. Well, terrestrial integrity is important. You can't build a you can't, and we license it, so you're allowed to either. The loop is just what we called the Ring Yep. Maybe. Yep, YEP, because tiler didn't work. It didn't know and the network is we got to work together to make it happen. Yeah, we need a lot of a lot of people in on this. Yep. Yeah, gotta expand my linkedin groups so that way we can control the weather. What do we call the dyson? What is it? Dyson wood, the disons fear, disonse fear. Yeah, so this Dyson sphears two on the KARDA CHEV's scale. Brand New Chevy diceon you're looking at the all new Chevy dyson's sphere. Look about the all new Chevy toiler, to Tyson, the y'all new Chevy Tweo, a dyson sphere, Omega twenty coming, coming in two thousand and sixty two or two thousand and twenty two one. It's just a matter of time. End Space. It a matter of time. It's just a matter I see, I get it, I get it, I get it. Wow, hi, that was a stage three joker act. I tell you what type three. I don't know what we're calling it. Type Three. So yeah, these are the that's the kardashev scale. I think it's interesting. I could see it. I could see it. I think it's yeah, but you can see anything. Likely. No, Picture Justin Bieber riding on top of Air Force One, not in Air Force One, on top of Air Force One. Your brain a fan. Your brain can create that image. Big Fan of that. Think about it like riding it like a horse. Yeah, on Air Force One. Oh, does he have a saddle? Yep, and it's purple and you can picture that. So that's what I'm saying. that. So, if that's the standard, I could see it. Yeah, I'm saying that's a bad standard. Well, what I'm saying is that's more because that I could see, I could visualize. Yes, I couldn't see it happening. Okay, this I can visualize, but I also can see a possible road. It's a long road and there's a bumpy barriers. Yeah, it's turbut that's a long, turbulent road. But I think, I think of humanity existed long enough, given our track record, we would try. Yeah, I agree, and I think if we had enough time and we made the necessary technical, technological developments, why not? That's true. So, but I also think it's very unlikely that we get there because we'll kill each other first, as we end here, I would like to show something. Alex, can you hand me the case? Where is the it was on that desk right, because this is something that we have in our possession. That is a zero on the KARDASHEF scale. Yes, we very, very difficult to turn into a cheval vehicle. Yeah, but we well, we we've ascended it to the type Omega. Right, it has crossed the barriers. It is now. Well, we got to reasons a type zero. So now it's an Omega One and it will be an Omega too, as we're ending here. This is gonna be hanging up by the next episode. If you're listening, you should start watching. Yeah, this is the fiddle that I got for Tim at our live show and downstairs the shop put our low. They laser engraved our logo into a harness the energy of the sun and a on the dyson's sphere. Yeah, put our logo use the sun's power. He was out there with a Mac yeah, just took a long time. That's why we really appreciate it. So thank you, nick for doing that. Yeah, shout out to neck. What's on the back? Oh, that is that's a little devil and a fiddle because they was fiddle enough.

Humanity has been expanding and advancing for as long as we have existed. It seems like we have an insatiable desire for creating new things and developing our influence as far and wide as possible. Logically, and based on some recent experience, we will eventually expand past our world and begin to colonize the cosmos. However, such a feat will … Read More

Sixto Rodriguez – The Rockstar Who Didn’t Know He Was Famous

01-25-22

Episode Transcription

Made by robots, for robots. Only read if you're weird.

Hey Man, what's up? Have you ever heard of six Toe Rodrigres Rod regress? Six Toe Rod regress Rodriguez? I know I was saying a wrong way. You did six toe Rodriguez, six tone rodrigueys. Okay, is six toe a name or is it like a nickname? Look, they got six to so, so it's just six toe. So I watched two separate interviews with people asking him about his name and he said in one of them he said, I don't know, my mom picked it. Yeah, and the other one he said it's because I'm the sixth kid. Oh, all R, another of those words. It's excitings. I thought so, but he, I mean he is the uncle is spike kids, right, is that? Is that who we're talking about? I think that means you're getting waterboard. Is Bro and Jesus what? I got his money this whole time. What did they go to? Australia? not, ma'am, he's dead. Wait a minute, dead. Yeah, come on, you're getting screwed here. Everybody has a grossest thing about them things. Last night he say that because you shot the picture and he does look a lot like he doesn't like did see the picture on accident? Does he does look a lot like the uncle from Spidet. I accidentally saw the picture, but no, he was not in he is not that actor, nor is he an actor at all. The six Rodriguez here's here's something interesting. His his a. What do you call this wikipedia page on his occupation? He is the only person on wikipedia that has an occupation that includes demolition worker and excavation worker. Right. No, you think he's the only person? Yeah, I think there's no, no one else. You think how to Webb for age? No, I don't know how you would confirmed that. Look at every personal page on people and don't make definitive statements like the person. No, because mine says that. Here's the thing. I was talked to have a wikipedia page. Now you know, I'm not going to tell you is I'm gonna go and I was like. I was like, you know what, I'm just might be the first person who got waterboarded and is still on speaking terms of the person who water boards them. And he was like, sick things. I didn't get water board he straight up was like now you're not okay. So you talked to him about getting waterboarded. Then I did talk to me. Have someone in our building, who is military? Yeah, we can't know his name. I said his name. BLEEP it out. Who knows how to water board? Yeah, yeah, and I think that means you're getting waterboarded, Bro. anyways, so six toh, he's his occupation is a list and says list is singer, songwriter, guitarist, poet, excavation worker, demolition worker. Those are his occupies. So he's an uncle from sprike. He's a Jack of vulture. It's okay. So here's the story. This is a crazy story. So the guy he listen Detroit Michigan kind of came up in Detroit Michigan is from our resently from Mexico. His family moves, moved away and then he moved to Detroit and while he was there he was a local musician, played the bar scene, run a lot of songs. This is this is a long time ago. This is in Detroit. Yeah, so this is in the his born in forty two. So he's in Detroit in the S. okay, and so he is a very young guy coming up in the bar scene, writing songs, playing and shows and he gets discovered. Discovered, well, I mean some local who is looking for people who know. I thought you were going to be like. So I think you're like straight up be like. Well, you know, Walt Disney was just happy to be in Detroit, you know, looking for his epcot land, and goes into a local bar because he had a drinking problem. MMM, and then just heard what is this sweet music? What is this melody? And let's when is that man has six toes because he plays barefoot. He plays like where you can see his sixth I hate when warship leaders would lead barefoot. I still closer to God. Why it was? It's holy ground. Take off your shoes, because that what they do it. Yeah, yeah, they're trying to be like most makes sense. I guess. No, it doesn't. There's a justification for your college had to make a rule that you had to wear some kind of shoes in the cafeteria because one person, who I'm pretty sure listens to our podcast, he know you, know who you are, you know who you are, would walk in and just into the cafeteria. He just walk the whole campus barefoot. Yeah, he I don't think he wash. She's like two years. I don't think you did either. Yeah, what's it? I mean, honestly, goes to you like that's impressive. I'm impressed, is it? I like him a lot. Yeah, I guess, a really fun guy, Hey guy, but that's the grossest thing about him and I love him and I would say that everybody has a grossest thing about that. The grossers think about you is what I don't know. You have to tell me that pimple on your nose? Yeah, I got a pretty fix it up my nose today. Thanks for pointing it out. Apreciate yeah, the gross thing about you is that you still have an iphone eight. Why would I up grade? It works. It does. It works, it's paint. Flip through the cameras were quicker and show it's it's paid off. If you're watching this, can you just guess which one is his? It works, it's paid off. Why would I have Craig, I'm going to edit this. I'm not giving into apples schemes. I'm going to edit this. I'm going to make your angle just upside down. Horrible, Gosh, sitting is so he gets discovered by a guy who works for a pretty nature record label. Hey, and the guys like, Hey, we want to sign you. Yeah, it's called Sussex records. It's out of business now. But it was an offshoot of Buddha records, which was fairly large record label. Some pretty pretty artists. An artist, none that I had heard of, but I according to the big recording big. I mean I'd know, I'd horrible, but I mean it was sixty years ago. I think about this. Cling to them and I was just looking at like like tick tock. Today I stumbled across on account that eight million followers. Yeah, and I was just like, I've never seen you before my entire life. Well, here's here's what I realize. I was watching the other two yesterday. Unless see a car came on and I was like, I've no idea who this is, no idea, no idea. This is how I know I'm an old person now. Yeah, I was an old person. I'm saying there's so much. There are twitch streamers. You have millions of fans and are making an insane amount of money. Yeah, and we don't know about them at all. Think here's an interesting question. Do you think that, with the Internet and really tick Tock and twitch and those kind of platforms, where past the point of household names? No, I still think we have household names. Yeah, because I think there's a different level of celebrity. Yeah, I guess, you know, I guess you can have there will always be a Kim Kardashian. There will always be. I'm serious, though you don't think you're right. There will always be. Even if I don't listen to Kanye, I know who Kanye is. That's fact, you know, that's right. There will always be that level of celebrity, super level superstars. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think that it is shifting, but what's interesting to me too, is that you are able to create a pocket, you know, in a way that I don't think we've seen before. True, could have a couple million like devoted fans. Yes, yeah, yeah, and that was the fear of the Internet, was that it was going to create like this one world thing where it was just be like, here's this government and here's these, these are your now international celebrities in this is it kind of thing. But when it up happening was it is created a bunch of, you know, fractions of this person has eight million followers and makes a killer living doing this. Yeah, and I've never I and you know I'll I still will never see any other content. HMM. Yeah, that's fair. That is fair. So that wasn't the case with was six town. He put out two records with this record label, one in seventy and seventy, one originally under the name Rod Space Reguez. Oh, was he hated the label ways that decision. Yeah, they're like, we don't like your name. Yeah, it was like yeah, okay, and they let him switch it back to Rodriguez after the putting out a single. That didn't do well, and so then he put out an album called fact in nineteen seventy and then another album coming from reality in nine seventy one. Do we know any of his songs? Yeah, which we can talk about that. Well, hmmm, maybe, I mean kind of. So they didn't sell well at all. Then do good. And so he was quickly dropped from the label and then he bummer. He kept playing like local shows. I will also say this about the Internet, is that there is more power in the artist's hands now, because then he gets d off from the label, What does he do? He just goes back to playing boshes. Right, yeah, you just go you maybe try to get a local radio stations help. Yeah, like, what do you you? There's there is a gatekeeper. You have to go through that's you're going to be on the radio. You got to get now. and honestly, what sucks now to though, is that you could be so talented, you can have you can build all the streams on social media and all that, but now what a record label wants is for you to have a viral hit on tick tock. Yep. So you can get a viral hit on Tick Tock, get a record deal, or you can do this other way. Get a bunch of streams, build a huge fan base, be touring already, but you don't have the viral tick Tock. The record label want to touch it them. You know, yeah, right, all right, but either you don't need the record label anymore, though you're already tore your to do with stuff. The record label only picks up people that they don't have to put the work into. Now. Yes, well, before they would go out and actively search for people of talent. Same thing with the talent agency that once you know, Reagan to do commercials and once in they were they were like hey, can we signed jere into? But they won't talk to me, they haven't emailed me. They want to like and and they're just like they wouldn't add anything to what I'm doing. Yeuh, yea. Anyway, that's pretty fair. I I'm already getting hands. You listen this episode right now. There's probably a pretty little add. I'm already getting commercials. Baby, cut to the AD break. We'll see if it hits. Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday, that's right, that's when new episodes drop on Patreon. Patreons a way to get early access to episodes and as their content and exclusive merchandise. And we're not going to stop there, because we had a private discord with our host and producers in it for less than seventeen cents a date. That's right, that's five a month. You two can be a patreon supporter and not here advertisements in this freaking podcast anymore text till in the six six eighty sixty six. Otherwise I'll come to your house, I will find you, I will destroy everything that's good in your life until we're the only thing left. Anyway, here's another advertisement. Listen to that. See, take that, talent, Scout. Take that. I don't need your celebrity. So I got magic spool cereal. So he goes back. So this he gets cut pretty much right. Have the RECO came out and seventy one, his second record. No one bought this. Yeah, like, people don't like you. So he went to not out there. You have a lot of fans, it's just people don't like you. Here here at the record label, there's a lot of people who don't. So he kept playing music for about five years, releasing singles on like small independent labels and stuff like that, but it didn't really go anywhere. Never really took off. Since seventy six he kind of gave gave up on his music career and he bought a house in Detroit at a government auction for fifty bucks in a not great neighborhood, but fifty house. Did a little bit of workty dollars. Yeah, yeah, did a little bit bit of work to renovate it. And what year? Seventy six. That's still obscene leaf cheap, obscenely cheap. That's not like an inflation number. Yeah, I mean it's like at this that is it would have cost him two hundred and twenty seven dollars today. That's the inclusion. Yeah, that's the inflation of him out. So that's he thought it at us. This was not a lead cheese is not a house. We bought a front porch. I mean it were a house used to be. I mean the way wikipedia describes it as a derelict Detroit House. So it's not in great shape. Okay, he did a lot of work to renovate it, though, and then he became a day labor literally his life after this was he would he was one of those guys who would go hang out at different stores around town, Beck, you need any work done, and then he would go do some demo word for you or pick up trash around your yard, like you. Literally would just find people and say hey, you knowed anything done? n't have a job, like he was just a day laborer. So very much lived in kind of poverty right. Well, in the early s something happened, and it's not really clear how it happened, but somehow he he went like viral in Australia. And so, okay, one of his songs just took off. Yeah, and people in Australia loved it. So some local Australian record label found Buddha, the company that owned the company he releases records on, and they really purchase the Australian rights to the record. Oh, and so they started selling the record in Australian it went platinum. You know, Australia, Australia. That's honestly a dream of mine. I was I really hope that our show is just insanely popular in Australia. So they end up, they end up tracking them down and then the early s he does two tours in Australia, like massive, like theater tour, sold out tours, big theater tour making money. Yeah, worse. Yeah, big tours, goes out and does those twice. That's you know, that's where owl city does really. You know, owl city still tours like in Asian countries. You know, it's really funny. said that. There's a music commentator that I watched some of his videos. He sorry, shaking his head. Do you show me for this guy's videos this week? Anyway, he mentioned into the other day in a video. He was like, he's like, it's like here's the thing. He's like, he's like you find any of these bad artists from ten years ago? They are doing huge tours in Europe and as right now. Yep, and he was like, he's like here's the thing and he's he's like this isn't like a mean thing at all. And he's like those countries just have lower standards for music. Oh my gosh, no, he's he's like here's the thing. He's like they like anything. He's like, if it's he's like, they're just like, oh, yeah, we like that, that's cool, we'll go to the show. Yeah, in the US we'll hate everything. We're just a little stiff, you know. He's and so he was more he was more port than the finger out as being like where jerks. God, were like, Oh, it's all. I'm not others to that anymore. I know what that's what. So that's what's crazy about ow wil city is that he lives in in a small town in Minnesota. HMM, the town I've been to like three times this year to do shows. H He lives there. Yeah, in this smaller than Mount Vernon town. Yeah, and tours, those just these massive, crazy tours. Interesting, that's crazy. Concurs. That's Naze. So six toe, so six to see indust really to the assid tours in Australia. They indust really exist in the EIES. How long has really been there? When did they build Australia? So he does a couple tours. Yeah, starts getting some some royalties from it, but it's kind of like he's getting kind of robbed. He makes some money from the tours, though. Yeah, he makes some money from the tours. He's getting some royalties from the record sales, but it's not what he should be getting. Split is he's getting robbed. Yeah, the thing is he continues to live a very humble lift style. He goes back from Australia and he continues working as a day labor. He's like, I is that his five hundred dollars. That's ten houses. Becomes a squatting mogul, right, he's just buy all these government auction homes for fifty bucks. Yeah. Well, now he gives all the money away. He's like the government's like, this one's on fire right now. Fitted are fifty bucks. So now he just goes and starts giving all his money to friends of family when he comes back from these tours. And then he just goes and goes back to to building stuff for random people. Okay. And so I does his Australia tours and then it just kind of goes quiet. So it's like eighty two. It was his last Australian tour, and then it's like yeah, he's done with music forever. Okay. Well, meanwhile, in the mid S, just about right after his record comes out, somebody in South Africa discovers him and same thing. He's been eating step in South Africa. Something the same thing happens. He goes viral and in South Africa and it gets the point where music like Aficionados in South Africa say he was bigger than Elvis in South Africa. South Africa like multi platinum and so selling all these records. But there was he became almost this mythic figure. Who was who owned the rights to those things? In South Africa it was a similar scenario where someone bought the local rights. Okay, it from the previous record label, which will get to that in a second, because that one's a little bit more froudy, okay, but he blows up, but it becomes like this mythic figure in South Africa. Sure, and so there's there's the legend. The legend goes that somebody in South Africa was dating a girl from the US because he was away on college, or Uni as they would say, and so he comes back from some time in the states and that girl he was dating had one of his records and so he brings it back home. That's how he loved it, and then everybody started making copies. Eventually a local label found it, got the rights and started printing it and distributing it and he just became massive in South Africa. But they knew, well at least they heard, that he wasn't playing shows anywhere anymore. Yeah, what years? This mid S, so pretty much right after they came out, seventy eight before is Australia tour. HMM, before those, even before he blows up in Australia. So somethin. Sure, it blew up in South Africa and they took it to Australia and that's why here. But that, that train is hard to pinpoint. Sure. But so hey, there's becomes this like legend of well, he's got to be dead because he doesn't play shows anymore, and so he's like this national icon, but they're convinced he's doesn't exist, like he's not alive. Yeah, and so the storyline, at least for South Africa, was that he didn't get the reconuisie nation he deserved in the US and one night he was playing a show in Detroit and there was all these technical issues. Are some sound problems. One of the guys in his band was missing some notes, like it was just one thing after another not going right and he was already really frustrated with how his records were performing. And finally, at some point in the night the crowd just starts to boo because it was going so bad. And it's like a fifty person show, like there's not a lot of people. There were gods booing him. This is the legend. Yeah, this is the legend. And so then, as the legend goes six to finish the song and he said this is my last performance and he shoots himself on stage. Oh my God, what everybody in South Africa like honestly believes, like that's what happened, like yeah, this guy did that on stage. Yeah, and so that was the story. Like they just everybody just always believed that that's what happened, except for our two reporters in like local reporters. For some reason. We're just like, I don't think that's true, there's no way that's real. Yeah, they're like there's no way. And so they spent twenty years trying to track this guy down, and so they literally and they literally had nothing. They just had a songs, like they had no info about him, like he wasn't doing any large enough tours that they were hearing about it in South Africa. There was like no news that fact that they couldn't find anything about it. This is pretty Internet. Yeah, so all they had were the lyrics to his songs, and so they were looking through the lyrics of the song is trying to track this guy down. They even know he's from Detroit. Oh those who like the little luckily, the lyrics one of the songs was just bought me fifty home in the Troit went on tour in Australia, bought another home in Detroit and they're like, I beaty is in Detroit and Detroit tell what was confusing is the actually had a song. He had a song way references, I think it was Florida, and so they thought he lived in Florida for a long time. He had another song where he referenced the tallest building in the states. So I thought maybe he lived in New York for a little bit, that the tallest building in the states is the David busters down the Road Kansas Right. It's use you've seen them before. The giant David's. That's big. David Busters Empire State Building, busters serve. That was the biggest building block states. That's hilarious. We should do that. The world's largest David Busters. Also the low tar tallest tower in the world, tallast tower in the world, David Buster, Daven busters. Man, if we were rich, golly, that'd be so funny. Oh Gosh. anyways, so now white guys bill so tall power. It's really about the power for us. It's really about the fact that it's just really funny. Not Musters. Say it out loud. Say the tallest building in the world is he David Busters. Say That's untillowed yourself and don't giggle. Yeah, how about that? It's that you giggled. That's why we did it. That's objectively, Holliday Arus, all right, and I know that you, maybe you know, don't have the same sense of humor whatever, but I think we could all agree. But that's funny. Oh my gosh, that's so good. So these guys spend twenty one years trying to hire into the s. They here about the Australia tours. HMM. They hear about the east other tours, and so they spent all these years looking for him, trying to check this guy down. Eventually one of the guys, one of these reporters, ends up finding his old manager and calls his manager and the managers like yeah, I know, I don't know Rodriguez. Oh, I thought it was really I don't remember him at all. Or we had like two records with him whatever. Yeah, and so he's asking him all these questions about his music, about his influence, about like where he live, all stuff, all six tour yeah, and then he says, Hey, how did he die? And he was like, oh, he's not dead, and the guy was like what? He's like, he's like no, he's alive. He's like, want me to give them your number, and he was like yeah, yes, and so later that night, middle of the night, this guy wakes up to a phone call. Santa the phone or reporter Wasats up the phone call. I answer this phone no of the night, and he's like hello, and he here's on the other side the phone six to say hello. He recognizes a voice because it listen to it so much, and he was like six toe and he was like yeah, he's like, he's like I hear you like my music. And so he had this long conversation with him and basically was like you are a household name in South Africa, and six to like thinks it's a joke. He's it's got to be chunked. Yeah, finally this guy convinces six to that it's true and says just come out to South Africa, like will fly you out here just so you can like meet the people. Yeah, we play a show or something. So they plan a six in one thousand nine hundred and ninety eight. They fly them out there. They plan a six stop tour around South Africa, stopping in some of the biggest cities in South Africa. And this is an arena tour and every stop is sold out. Thirty, fortyzero people coming out to see him, and there's videos of him coming on to the stage and it is literal minutes, five, six, seven minutes of applause before he can start playing, because he is literally a legend. How bonkers would that be? Literally, the day before he came out, he's picking up trash in Detroit for like thirty bucks and then he goes and does an arena tour in South Africa. How much money did you make from those I don't know exactly how much bonkers a bonker's amount of mutter. Have you heard of tilling podcast March? That's right, we have a merge store full of tilling bread and teas, hoodies, mugs and so much more. We also make new designs for every single episode, but those are only available for a limited time, so get them while they're hot. Text till into six, six, eight sixty six to get your till in March today. So he he does this tour and what's crazy is like he has a security detail ill with him at all times. He is staying in presidential sweets at hotels. His family came with him. He has a couple daughters and his his daughter said, like he's always been just a super like humble guy, which, yeah, he lives in a fifty house. Well, he's the thing, like he goes to these hotels and he's like, actually, is there a motel six we could stay at? Y'All have those here. So he like, and I this is a little like change it to motel six toe if you want. So he goes and he's in the presidential sweets king bed, but his daughter said he was sleeping on the couch in the sweet because he didn't want a made to have to make the bed after all. Like this is a kind of guy he has and he literally all the prophets he made from this tour he gave away to friends and family, like literally just didn't keep any of it. He's okay, yeah, and then does this arena tour. Look at me in the eyes if this happened to me where I'm doing theaters and arenas. Yeah, I'M gonna sleep in the bed and you're not getting a kidding any of it. All right, that's fair. That's what the arena tour happens. He does the arena TORP, goes back to Detroit to fifty dollar house and just goes back to day labor and went on literally to this day. Every few years takes a trip back to South Africa. They fly him out private jet like presidential suite. Arena tore and then just flies back to Detroit. No, why? His Little Day labor life. He's done that tour. I think they said it's like eight times now. New Songs. He has put out a couple new albums since that happened. So he's making royalties. Well, he is now. He is now, Oh, so that's important. So the South African company. Yeah, they bought the rights, the local rights, from his original record label and then they did some very strange legal Jiu Jitsu that is not clear. It's hard, okay, to find exactly what happened here, but basically what they did is the legend was that he died and so they played off that legend and they said, well, he's dead, he's there's a benefactor that all his realties have to go to. The benefactor was a made up person that, ironically, they named Jesus, and this Jesus Rodrigus. There as this person Jesus, who got all of his royalties from South Africa, and so he actually hasn't gotten any of that in a net. Ever, ever, initially he didn't care, like initially he he was like, he's like no, I'm happy with my life, like that's literally what he would say. And then eventually it was kind of like as she and twenty in two thousand and eighteen, things changed and he's like he's been convinced to start pursuing this, and so he is kids. Yeah, yeah, I mean his kids are adults now. Yeah, but I'm saying like the probably has grandkids. He's got an adult children who go wait a minute dead, yeah, come on, you're getting screwed here. Yeah, probably, honestly. Yeah, when they're like five they don't understand, you know. But when you got to give my dad is his business getting hosed over, I'd be like Hey, hold on, Ye, go get that. Yeah, go get your bag, go get that bread. And so now he's actually gone after it. Well, in two thousand and twelve a documentary was produced about this. Okay, called searching for sugar man, very good documentary. Sugar Man is one of his songs. And say, do we know some of the songs? So sugar man was actually sampled in a little NAS song, which was before the documentary. So it's interesting that he found it. that. Other was a little no song. Let me look it up. When was the documentary? Two Thousand and twelve. Little Nas has not been doing little, not little nos NAS. Oh, okay, that's sorry. I said a little NAS. You did NAS, which is confusing. That shouldn't be allowed. Yeah, laws is smaller. So in Nas Song. Yeah, a NAS song. He was sampled at a NAS song. I can't find where that was. where. That's that. There was a rapper that came to our youth group. Who was he went by NAS it was I think it was NASA. Is what his NA NASA. His name was NASA. I think his name is NASA. NASA. Two Thousand and one is when the song h yeah, was when Nazis Song. Okay, you're the man. So he sampled a line from sugar man, which is popular. Rodriguez is song. Right, yeah. So and after that, after the record came out, he kind of got a cult following everywhere, because I thought that movie was super successful and every darky mom and story and people went and started listening to his music. And so a lot of people listen to him now. And he does like festivals. So he'll do occasional tours in the states. He's gone back to Australia, South Africa, Europe, but he still works as a day labor. So he goes and does these arena tours. Is Massive festivals, just goes back to his fifty dollar house in De try, it still lives there, and does day Labor. Imagine that you're just going to like Home Depot. Yeah, right. And then drake, it's like hey, bed, you need no bulls, you need like any work that he's done today and you're just like you're drake. Yeah, I'll pull all the weeds in your house for like Twenty Five Bucks, twenty and earlier. You're like you just said twenty five. You're undercutting yourself. He's like fifteen, you know. He's really bad and negotiated and says our you know, like that's okay. Pretty much what's happening here. Like this guy is, I mean huge, like in the states he ended up, after after everything blew up, he ended up going gold on his first album, oh my gosh, and platinum on on the second. So like massive, he's. Yeah, massive artist. Almost didn't know it, like very close to never knowing any of this. If those reporters hadn't tracked him down with any and I'm literally never would have known, never wanted him, and they wouldn't have known he's alive. They would have thought that that legend was true the whole time and Jesus would have got his money this whole time. Oh my gosh. So, and that's crazy. That's bonkers. Yeah, but that documentary is very good. You should watch it. Well, what's nuts is just like how content he is, like he's so content with his life. Like he's like, yeah, I go do these tours every once in a while, but, like, I like my life. I think he actually says that in the documentary, something along the lines of like, Oh, no, he said, he said real life is better. That's what he says, real life is better. I hate that. That hit me to my core. Yeah, they're like hurt me on the inside a second there. And so literally, like up until recently, yeah, he has given his royalties aways, given his tor money away. Recently something switched. I don't know if, like he fell into hard time, needs the money or what, but something switching. Now he's trying to get that money. Never be that humble, but music actually really good. I just want our hopes up. I don't want you to be like I'm holding you know, the reason I have it upgraded my phone is because Jaron's going to give me a new one. Oh, I'm not all right. I don't want you to hold out hope. I don't want you to think. I don't want you to keep living that crappy house you live in thinking the Jar's going to buy you a new one one. They all right, you gotta develop your own life. But he's on. He's on spotify. All of his records on spotify. They're actually under a sick to good under Rodriguez. It's just Rodriguez. Okay. He has almost a million monthly listeners. Sugar man is his biggest song. Is Forty nine million on spotify. So like really good sugar man, crisfy your mind. Those two are very good. I listen about those. I like them a lot. Definitely like old school, like rock and roll. And she's go to South Africa. Oh, that reminds me. I'm so, so glad you about this. Up, Elon Musk was raised on Rodriguez. Here's another thing. Dave Matthews band was influenced by Rodrigue. okay, so dave matthews bands from South Africa. I didn't know that. Yeah, and they were influenced by Rodriguez, like he's a legitimate influence and wow sound. And so they played together. No, I don't think so. They should. We should set that up. You know, hey, we've done an episode about both of you. Dave Matthews, don't listen to the one we did about you. It's not very flattery, is not. Yeah, six, so we're gonna get you your own boss don't worry about it, all right, so get to your own we should position Chicago to rename that bridge the Dave Matthews break. I don't know why we didn't make that joke earlier, but we should. They I do know that Dave Matthews covered sugar man on tour. I don't know if he's played, if they play with him, or I would imagine they would try to, unless Dave Matthew still thinks he's dead, and which time and he's dead. Like now, Hey, who guys influence by off your Rodriguez? You know this miss musician who pretty crazy story stuff, but he's he's I mean he's been dead for a long time. Like you mean that Guy, that guy? He said, that's not Rodriguez, that's Rodrigez. Yeah, play it. The Guy Mowing the lawn over here, he's Rodriguez. He's just mowing the you guys shoveling up all your violinist poop. The bus driver. Bus driver, yeah, the reas. That happens because we got a day label as a bus driver. Didn't even have a CDL man, but man could he play guitar. He's pretty talented. That's crazy. That's Rodriguez made a real sick. I guess is a fiddle. MMM, there you go.

Oh, yes, we're working on a false crineous, so was like kill that man. I don't want to hear what spakest has to say. Fromantin thing is gonna clean, a bigger Brad, all right, it's called ACOL. I am Cot for the person who runs the happiest place. The Lor he's pretty unhappy with most things in the world things: Yeah Yeah Yeah, it's the East, Pennsylvania Company of transportation like it's like Mo Dat, but it's Evis, freest Pennsylvania. They take care of the roads and stuff. No, it's not! Okay! There's the thing isn't that what you yell like, if something just like you now exports or whatever and like things go well and you're, just like that was a cut that was p, Coro Bro, that's so crow, that's AP Cot Man, yeah, and it was really poor Y, like that's animal kingdom Bro your like do. That was so. I was a a animal kingdom right there. I E that was some day. Three used all your part, copper. This is the last one to go to the kids are miserable. You got to fly home the next morning to the job that you hate, but you spend all this money so you're trying to make it worth it and you might divorce your wife. That's how bad that was all right. So Epcot is is a. They got a giant golf ball yeah, so they got. They have a a giant. Golf Ball, yeah, that's the whole, the whole thing. So I guess we're done. You Still Montin forty minutes in life in very Anando of all of that. A giant off so tell me about AVCO. So here's the thing. Well, that's interesting. A lot of people have actually told us to do this and I've thought about it for a while, because it's interesting I've told you to it yeah yeah. Do you not count as a lot of people? Are you now? I count as a lot of people do er to say Il man. Are you if I were to say a lot of people o? I already know fat to comments. I don't need you coming in here being like I, your multiple people. What are you trying to say to him? What I'm trying to say is. It seems like you're trying to say that there's here's, here's everybody else. Here's you up above everybody else like you're, more significant. This is the only time you've ever understood me. That's exactly what I'm saying, and I don't mean that isn't like I'm better than them. I'm saying to you. I should be better than them. I don't know about that. I think I think realistically all right whatever the game, I don't want to know. You know I don't want to know where I rank. I mean if everybody else is here. I've said we should do epcot, because I've heard- and this is these- are just here's all the rumors I've heard o Goin to get tell of these as I've heard that most of the plants at Disney or Annibale, because in the in tomorrow and in to morrow and like where the space mountain rides are and all that stuff that it was supposed to be super feeturs c. all the plans are edible, like you can eat them. Interesting, that's a rumor. I've heard there are other rumors. I've heard is that epcot was supposed to be. You know its own little park that was going to be like people live. There is supposed to be like a congrace, hey there you go just like me, you look like me right now and all right. It's supposed be a conomor conglomerate, yeah, my Gosh of people yea, and that people are going to live there. Okay coat the plans, so so I wasn't planning on talking about the plants, but I did just look it up the plans. Initially they were all edible. They were to like vegetables to Morland Yeah. It was vegetable, it wasn't! Well. You Wait Inn line you're, just like there's a carrot in the ground, just like man, I'm really glad I'm refuel and in line for buzz light year the ride. Now they find you if you take take them, though it these, like the two lit set of Angel. Oh my God, I find you, but now it's about eighty percent of tomorrow, that's still quite a bit yeah, but here's the thing: they're, vegetables. I don't know what I expected when you said it a bull, but I didn't expect that I expected them to be like laced with marijuana. What do you kind of l? What kind of experience you think they're having down there? I expected them to be like to like manufacture these plants that look like playing. Oh, but it's like like liquor in Sesar, but you can eat it. I mean that's. That is what they're doing, but it's just a flower that you can eat. No, it's just vegetables, it's just lettuce and carrots and onions like it's. Not I it's be honest like that's. It's just a vegetable yeah and they were like. Like the won't impress me, you know what the future is vegetables, every vegables wow. I Love Your Flower Garden, that's so two thousand and three or this is two thousand and seventy five. You know and we don't have flower beds. Yeah we've got a million Gris Garden grooves. Are I grove garlic grews all right? You know what I tried to listen to a few true crime podcast this week, because we might be working on one so trinity. You allegedly were allegedly working on a true crime pike, we're working on a false crime. PODCASTS. Do that reason to a false scribe by? U? Where is this up? We just incriminate everybody dude us make. Everybody seems so guilty anyway, so we're work. We might be working on it. We are allegedly you know, someone out, there's doing a true crap bigest anyway, so I was doing some research and I listened to a few of like the really popular ones and they suck to listen to much like we probably suck to listen to for anybody who's interested in the topic. Oh Yeah because, like I noticed all of them start with like four minutes of Banter of inside jokes and stuff, and here we are here we are doing the same thing- a O, Epcot, here's. What I actually want to. We had talked about planned cities a few different times talking about it. Well, I think we brought it up in the suburbs episode I Tira in the marijuana city episode yeah, and so I thought about I was like I was like I m. I want to do an episode all about a bunch of different plan, cities and kind of talk about what are plain sees. Why do they fail almost always and then in my research we tad about it in the mall episode Yeah Yeah in my research about up cot, I was like oh I've. Cot deserves it's on episode, so here we are in your research. Yeah go in my research. I am an esteemed researcher. In fact, Wikipedia sent me a message today. That's how steamed I am yeah they're, like you, can't keep adding your podcast to look at poliager. I we believe your Diervilla looks like you're making up like I'm like fine black. Now. Did you go at things over last night to all the topics, most of them as a pop culture? Reference Hey, be, I think, who I should be on there. I agree we're pop call Chi you gree or pop culture. We are pop culture defined. I was in the city that what are they a? We Really Message: U Today, yeah what they say. Please donate you know they said that everybody they said Hey. I notice your your contributin contributions. Ye cobue just noticed your contribution yeah. What did they say to you? They said they know our contributions and they sent me some tutorials. Oh it's because you ca, you contributed money. No, no! Like contributors, Contrib, Oh, like editing, Editi, been messing with Loki. They said here's some detoriated how to actually do that. Yeah they're, like in case you're, wondering how you did it wrong. Here's a better way. So Epcot said I I ve cut of mean Disney said Walter Disney Walter. I is it Walton. I don't know Walter Walton. It's all this. We did an episode about them. We did do so. Yeah were no episode. It was years ago so Disney in what year fifty five his whole life. He had always thought man, you know what it's Walter so Walter. His whole life had always said. You know what I could do cities better than all these idiots yeah it is. It was really weird that, like you know, a second grader is out here. His second grade teacher wrote that, on the teacher report, very attentive in class can can add. Like a you know, like no one else, a good artist yeah in these weird mice, yeah yeah, is too big ears. My only feed back and also just wrote on his paper. I can do cities better than everyone else a hundred times. I can do cities better than everyone else. I can do cities, but yeah I mean that was what was we think Walter Walt W is deranged. Is this a teacher like a parent teacher coach that first sure Miss Disney? Isn't that weird that we cost Elias? Is that time? I think I steamed researcher so, okay, so his whole life. He had this dream of doing city's better or one he's looking around like. I could do it. I have also had those thoughts, though you don't say he had this dream. I would say: here's what happened. He moved to La in the story even to La and he had to deal with La Traffic. He moved to La Win. I mean I don't know it like. Is that war is when, like the forts, opes yeah, and it was not the La that it is now yeah, but traffic was still bad. No, he isn't a okay, it was so literally they started La and they're, like you know, be a good thing to start. Traffic is part of the foundation. No, he literally was talking. He constantly talked about traffic and how much he hated it and how he thought there needed to be a solution really to like cities better without traffic. Really, yes, I didn't know that he hated traffic. I didn't know that was his. He was a vocal opponent to traffic, so much so actually that hold on. I didn't know that Disney had like a like a traffic. You know what I didn't know that he was like angry about that. I love that the I love the idea that, while Disney in my head is just like raging with traffic he's like creating the happiest place in the world, you know he's up in his little apartment of the fire station. Like you know, all these people are coming in to visit, Disneyland and he's like yeah welcome, and then you see someone that the day before he's flips off in traffic he just goes except for you, you can't come get out of here was like what he's like yeah, how about you go on Space Mountain and then they just never see him again. I like the idea that he's like got this secret current of hater ve, addictive traffic or rage, O rage, yeah yeah, that's kind of accurate, Ray Bradbury author Ray Bet, Bradbury Ray Bradbury author of Fahrenheit, four, fifty one okay. He said this is how Votis ne this is. How Vocal Disney was on traffic. Rad Brabber said that he should run for mayor of La because he's the only person who could fix the traffic problem. Okay, I guess I didn't know yeah so, okay, so it's a a AH, he was so he was. He really was just kind of like looking around being like civics. I got this yeah actually well, I mean I think, after after Disney, like his company took off here's the thing I think we're going to learn with epcot as we go down. This episode. Disney got a pinch and by a pinch I mean a crazy amount. A ton of insane of arrogance makes because he is what happened with him. Everybody said a feature length, animated film will never work and- and he crushed yeah and made it this massive company. And then everybody said a theme park based on movies will never work and then he did it and it crushed and he made tons of money off of it, and so he twice had done something that was just an absolute giant success and despite everybody saying this is never going to work, and so now he's like everyone's telling me that my car that runs on water is never to work. We got a prototype somewhere, so he got to the point where he was like he's like. I can do whatever I want. Yeah t else is wrong because I'm smarter than them really yes and we're going to feel. Are we going to feel different about Disney? After this I mean, I think you, I think, he's a little arrogant out of there, but I don't think you'll feel that different about them, I mean maybe a little but here's. What I think is that all these people, every time that something that Disney does something so many people like they're, like you know, Disney canceled annual passes, yeah and everyone's like Oh walt, would never a D and in my head I'm like guys walt was a cutthroat business. Man Like he would have would never yeah you would have you know they like to think of it. This is like mythical, like a kind of person or whatever, but he he kill you you don't know we should do a documentary, a crime or a called the bodies under Disney us. The only thing we lack right now is evidence, but we can figure that out. I think there's what is your face hold on, I'm trying to under water cause of Walter Disney well hold on what if we can cut all this part out a want other. What if there was bodies found underneath sea world and it was the documentary was called under the seaworld. Come on that's good. Let's start digging under S, let's start yea. What are you all doing out there digging for bodies? We we're in the tank. SCOPAE whale fits one of us. Take our arm were someing in an under water, so just kicking up a just sprinkling, sho maneuver under water to it's like the like. The show is still going on above us. So above us the way I was just jumping diving down swimming around us. You know some kids think we're giant fish for some reason, because kids are stupid but like what are those fish you are in, the parents are like, I think, they're digging right. Those fish are digger fate. Those are digger fish, yeah, their bottom feeders they're, the kind of thing they got, those in the whatever anyway. So if we found some bodies under sea world, if big, the documentary would he call under the Sea World- and I love that so speaking of so anyway, theme parks. So he he kind of started this idea with his La School, the arts, okay or California, school the arts, and so he started it and it was like a very similar idea was going to be like a college campus and a work campus and then this place where you lived and you worked- and you did all this stuff and it was an interesting dream and he thought man I'm going to make a place all my employer going to live to work here. Your students are going to love to go to school here and he did it and cow school the yards. I had a rocky start now, it's like a established thing, that's like great and even his studio like it's just doing right now, but there was a moment in time where everything he thought about how like he literally sat down- and he spent all this time thinking through everything for his employees, like hey you're, going to live. This close to work, it's a great for all this stuff, but is it sorry I had this doctor pepper great for you, that's what I'm talking about like this is Dr Pepper as breathe. It's a Dr Pepper! So but it didn't, it didn't pain out that way, because I, the employes were like hey like this sucks and he was like it wasn't supposed to is supposed to be awesome. Why did they say it sucked because there's something to do well? No, it wasn't that there was nothing to do. It was that it was just restrictive on them and so the working conditions like are we allowed to leave he's like yeah? Well, you don't have to there's like enough stuff here. He's like you, got a grocery store and like a place to live and they're like yeah, but can we leave you don't have to I mean when you I would you want to go out there to the traffic? Why would you want to do that? Why would you, when you get too close to the fence, you're, going to hear a beeping from that collar around your neck? But that doesn't mean you doesn't any anything yeah we'll just see you tomorrow is is a shock caller. If you know what we've got a great restaurant that we just opened, it is pretty shocking, but it does, but it's not a shot collar. Okay, so are we allowed to leave or not? If you keep asking, you know, what sorry almost do you like killer whales? How do you feel so there was, there was a walkout and all of his employers were like were really it was like that and they like picketed it. They were like. We like a change like conditions and it was there, but it was the sort of situation where he thought he was building this like dream world, where everybody's gonna love working there, but really it was kind of like it's a sort of thing where it was like well different into a nightmare. It's almost like, like a situation where it's like, okay. I hope this is really on the nose for somebody were like your dad plans. This vacation, everyone's, like he's like he's like, is gonna, be so full we're gonna do all this. We could do that and then, like day through, the vacation everybody's had it and they're sick of Dad Yeah and dad sick of the fact that they're not having fun and so dad's like shut up and have some fun already and everybody else is like I'm not having fun. This is in fun, Sacaton Sucks and then the dad's really mad, and then the kids get out of the car and with the pickets and and they started picketing the fame vacation. It was really one nose for me and my family, except for that was my mom, and then you did the picket la it. If anyone crosses the strike line, stop vacation now we're striking our own family man. I hope my kids do that one day I would love for my kid to hold up a sign. That's just like down with Dad Dad be like I'd, be like Hey Peto, vacation, Vedo vacation. I just don't want to go home, but I don't want to be here. That's what I want my kid to hold up. That's really pretty freaking funny, but yeah. So waters were like listen. We don't want to live here. We don't want your situation, whatever you unterland for us, and so it was an epic failure, and so they changed a lot of stuff and it was fine again but walt had it in the back of his mind. where he's like remember when I did that- and it was almost great he's like, I think I could do it again, but it'd be bad for everybody for everybody and he was super angry at Disney land, not Disneyland, but the land around Disneyland Disneyland would be land because when he built it there was nothing around it. But it is everyone, other businesses, yeah, hotels and stuff, to open up around it that it trapped them in, and so they were trap by traffic again and so he's just raging about all the traffic around Disneyland. Okay. So when he built Disneyland, it was kind of in the middle because it is a little far out of Los Angeles. So it wasn't as I go, to see the middle nowhere, but there was open space around it yeah and he had a there's nowhere for to expand Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday. That's right: that's where new episodes drop on patroon patrons a way to get early access to episodes and a their content and exclusive merchandise, and we're not going to stop there because we had a private discord with our host and producers in it for less than seventeen cents a day. That's right! That's five! A month you two can be a Patriot supporter and not your advertisements in this freaking podcast anymore text till in the six X, eight, six, six, otherwise I'll come to your house. I will find you. I will destroy everything, that's good in your life until we're the only thing left anyway, here's another advertisement so so epcot was born and Epcot. You Might Ave hard remind me again s, one thousand, nine hundred and ninety five Disney land opens. Let me look at the. Let me look at time line and then, when he went to Florida he just had all the land because he was like no one wants to be here. On thousand nine hundred and Ity five Disneyland opened yeah and you the same trade engines are running the same trains in that crazy. That's pretty bonesie kind of cool and they're running on the same track that he laid Disney world opened and seventy one but epcot, okay, so e eighteen years later, epcot predated by a long time, O all yeah, so epcot was early. S is in Florida. Yes, yes! So! Well! Let me let me the idea of a card or the eve. Let me okay! Well, let me tell o this Tory. What is that cut stand for expert experimental prototype community of tomorrow, Yeah Yeah, so anyways, so he he had this idea he's like he's like. I want to build this dream: Community: Okay, no traffic! That's the only rule, no traffic, lots of mice and gangsters on the bridge that was his prototype city, Bata brose in the Middle Bataras in the middle. You know what this is going to be perfect, but it really was. It was honestly kind of coming off of that behavior sing era. It's the early s yeah and so he's. Looking at every city and saying all these city suck traffic is awful: Yeah, they're, dangerous, there's crime. The reason that your yeah there's too many people everywhere, yeah he's like I'm going to build the city where there's no crime, there's no traffic and everything is beautiful and it's Super Fun all the time, and so he feels like Michael Scott, the office. Where he's like I'm going to have twenty seven kids, and that way no one can not be my friend or like oh she. So he had this idea and was kind of thinking through how he was going to do it. So he actually looked at a lot of locations. He looked at St Louis. He left at Denver. He looked at New York, we kind of had Disney world in St Louis Yeah, O think about help much that would have reshaped the state its phenomena me, I mean look what I did for Florida. I mean yeah, not great things. You know, so he was looking at all those different places and then so of beach. Miami some guy just listed an obscene amount of acreage for sale and he was all of a sudden like Huh Florida, and so he started looking at the topography there. That deal never went through, so he never actually went with that specific guy. But then he was like you know what Florida is a perfect place. He had. He had one of his research teams go through and do all the the market research there and when he realizes he said hey this actually want to compete with Disneyland at all, because it's the opposite coast, and so you said what we would have as we would have basically a line down the middle of the country where everyone on the east coast would go disney world. Everyone on the west coast would go disneyland. The only thing at this point: it was in Disney world, it was epcot and epcot had different parks and locations within it was the vision. Okay, so epcot was Disney world initially. So we'll run with that for a second and we'll explain kind of the vision in the second. So, like animal kingdom was going to be part of that guy. Well, he didn't have an idea for an IM, looking him to begin with, but okay, if e in practice. Yes, that's the idea, like magic kingdom, Animal Kingdom Epcot, it was epcot and all those were parts of Epcot Lois I've got so he he said, okay, well, that deal went didn't go through right, but he said what about something in the middle of Florida. So it's not all the way down. There is a little easier for people to get to through found. Orlando fell in love with the area and basically told his company said Hey by as much of it as your pain and so, and I know there they still own so much more than they're using yeah yeah they bought hold on. Let me see if I can figure out how much acreage they bought for it and then how much they're using that's how I'm cure I'm curious. What the ratio is. Yeah sounds good. They bought twenty five thousand acres, so thirty nine score miles and they're using about half that's what I'm saying they're only using half of what for all their parks m. What? Because the idea was epcot, and so the idea was idea. This experient called You keep saying that, like we know what Epcot is yeah well I'll, tell you get there I'll, tell you okay, say there. Now, here's up guy, here's the idea that got it's this! It's this theoretical place where, like I said, no crime or traffic logs are fun, but here's the thing then there's tomorrow, it's always tomorrow, so he wanted this to be a bastion of the future and so no matter what it would always be twenty years ahead of every other city in the world, okay, and so his idea will take it from the airport, so the property, the bottom of the property, was an airport, and so that was kind of a big grand you would fly into epico yeah, and so this was the Epcot International. Are Rich people fly in the Disney world like at the airport at Disney world? Do they have an air or an airport? I'm pretty sure they do, I'm pretty sure they have their own little airport yeah. But you like do like rich people get to fly in there or do they just go to Orlando Airport Wi you? What do you mean? I don't understand what you're saying I, Orlando has an airport does Disney. Let the rich people fly into dis. DISNEYS are part, I don't know, does Disney let people land on the safari trail a long guys. We've got a pause. If you look to your left, there's some water buffalo in front of us, JAS's playing, is landing. Give him a second like wrap. It's got his face on the side of it he's not gody dude, he's classy. I This a little lane, as I'm saying like are they allowed to? I don't know anyway, go ahead that so the original idea was that there would be an airport that you were fly into with the intention of going to Avco yeah, and then they attack attached to that is the entrance to epcot, and so there's this big grand entry way kind of really similar to what the entry way to dis a world is right, now lots of little shops and things to see. And then, when you get on there, there is the monorail system, and so the monorail system runs through the whole series of call them locations of Epcot. Today we would call them parks, but that's not accurate, for that's not what we do. Vision was, and so you go through it, and the obviously have your first. So was that giant ball built first, no well, it might have been, but it wasn't initially so we'll get to that we'll get to how it became what it is, because totally change your story. So so you would get on the monorail and the monorail will then take you through this sort of industrial, complex, and so this I did. The idea for this was you get there and there was a train station, a Monera station yeah and attach the monorail station where people move our stations which the people movers they have them at Disneyland, and I think they have met Disney world too, and at some random places around the world too, but basically they're like trains, but instead of it being like a train that moves along a track. It's a train with stationary cars on the track and then the track moves, and so it's like almost like a belt like almost like a like a like those staircases, as Cascar yeah, almost like an escalator. So like the what so, it's like it's a anterson concept, but I don't think I've seen them outside of like the haunted mansion yeah. That's a perfect example. That's exact know, that's I say is like that'ss your describing the haunted mansion yeah. So that was the idea. They have that everywhere it a bunch of people move or stations, people movers were hold. How many people that mean they have a bunch of cars they'd be like two or three people in a car and put the cars, so it would be like the haunted mansion just everywhere, yeah, like a roller like a little roller coaster, car who then be a car in front of you. Well, this was the transition transportation systems. That way you have to deal with traffic and you get on your little cart and then the car. What the cart would do is it was a the it was located. Everything in epcot was a bunch of circles, and so the industrial complex is the same way at the center. The circle was your monorail station with your people, murders, and they went out like spokes to each of the different complexes. Complexes were also like a big circle, and so you would stop in the middle, and then there would be trails that led to all the buildings which were the businesses, and so his vision was i'm going to get r ca, kodak all the major companies at the time, radio shack. But for me all those were the major companies, the time that were like in the front of technology, to open up campuses here, and this was you got e a blockbuster in here. It's go great and they would be pushing technology forward ad evon and there's a reason that he wanted them here and there's a reason he wanted them at the first stop which will get to, and it's just a second okay. So you would get you go past your first step and then you would enter into tomorrow, land and so then that'd be a big step where all the vegetables are which i'm going to come back to tomalin, because that's bigger and it's going to take a little longer to talk about you pass tomorrow. Land and then you get to the theme parks. And so then you would stehe plan was for theme parks to exist there, the e it wasn't just like a you know. Let's us go a giant place to live yes, but it was an afterthought for walter. Okay, well really owd d really thought that he needed it for funding more than anything interestin, because because he knew hey wee prue the concept before i can get investors at back this park yeah. But i can't get into invest my co new city, my god, all right. It's called av cole. I have cot, so it's a little different ani said cold. I said it were not sorry said accident anyway, you remember who i am right: yeah yeah, i'm powerful yeah! Just give me money. Do you like whales? So so that was going to be the magic king goes a sea world down there too. So that was going to be the magic kingdom and think what the magic kingdom was. It was just like disneyland, but it also had like a billion golf courses, the exact number of what he planned- a billion golf course, golf courses, no, but it had a lot of golf courses like tennis cords, like all this in the point outdoor like stuff to do yeah, and so the idea was you fin. You drive through the the industrial complex and you get to kind of you. Don't take sure you moved through while you're on a monorail yeah. If you get off, you get moved through: okay spare monorail through the industrial comprest, complex yeah, and you see all these. These businesses that are leading the way and then you go into tomorrow, land and then you go to the park and here's the cool thing about to morrow land. Is it's crazy? It's it's twenty years in vans, it's twenty years ahead of everything else in theory, but here's the layout for tomorrow and again concentric circles like the spoke system out outwards, so your monteral lands in the middle okay and then you have all your people movers going out, but this time, instead of it being like you get there, there's a station and people moves that. Take you out to other circles. You you stop in, like almost this giant mall. So the monorail goes into this building yeah and the monorail station is at the first floor of this hotel in the hotel is the highest building in the whole city and so massive tower and then surrounding the hotel same building. But the hotel just rises out from within it is a fifty acre shopping mall. Basically- and so it's just this massive massive indoor, mall okay, but the catch was it was an outdoor mall that they just put a roof on. So they had built all these buildings while they guess they didn't build it. But the idea was built. All these buildings put a design it to look like different parts of the world and then put a roof over it. So you can climb at control the whole thing and they were going to put there's like there's renderings that they have of it little dome skylights randomly all over the place to let natural lighted and they look really funny. They look like submarine port holes. Okay for the ceiling of this massive building, yeah make just gigantic building on the edge of the sous going to open a big mallon, the edge of the shopping mall was kind of this mixed use, district that wrapped all the way around the mall. So it s the malls is giant circular building and then wrapped around it. Our buildings attached to the building, but like kind of jet out from the building and er different shapes and sizes, and how that's where the employers would live now will some of them. There were apartments, but there was also like your hospitals, some on that irises yeah in that circle, and so that was like kind of your almost service center. There is a bunch of different services there, okay and then outside of that. The next ring was the green belt, and so this was just parks and open spaces, but within the parks and open spaces there was your schools and things like that: okay and so, and then you had another ring outside of it. That was your residential spaces, and so the way it was laid out is your spokes were again the people, movers and your people. Movers would take people from the center points to the hotel and the mall down to that. Each stop along that until you get to the residential zones and the residential zones. Are these big coldest of people move a rail yeah and the way it works? You just like a people move her home, yeah, yeah and but the people move it the way it worked. Is it only stopped if you triggered it to stop, which would be a disaster for people like me when it stop? Stop it all the time the whole e, i guess yeah, but you don't have to trigger to stop i've, ridden the hono mention you just get off he step off. I guess so. I guess so. That's real! I don't know how fast i move if you got to, if you're all on the same line right, jus giant people move her. If your been on the hanamenu know that it stops multiple times while you're in there yeah yeah, because the idiots of the beginning didn't know how to get in yeah, that's the only reason it stops yeah, so they have to trigger the stop yeah you're right yeah. So if you i know where you're going just push it open and get out, i guess so don't hold up the rest of the, and this is honestly, you know traffic like say it's traffic, because you know either way you can design a system that works and everything, but there's still gonna be idiots to mess it up. So the cold issac yeah was your people mover, and the thing with that is it was this large park was your cultas x instead of being this little asphalt corner? Is this large park and all the houses faced in towards the greenery on the park? And so then you get off and you walk across the park to your house now. Would you be signed a house, or could you buy one yeah? Let me get there okay, this is excited he here's. What i gets kind of interesting, the back side of the house, is actually had rotes because he knew that the residence you could want to be want to leave yeah's like i learned this the hard way, the first time people are going to want to leave. I guess there was roads. I don't know why. So it was interesting. You kind of had this, this coldest. That was like inverted because the houses would have almost the backyards in the coldish and then outside the cold. Sec would be this big loop road that would go back inwards, and here they had outlets that would have to be gated wall. Her was really interesting. What they did is the the roads went back in towards the center and they actually went underneath the mall, and so there was almost like a redout. The made entrance there's almost like a freeway running through the mall, so traffic. If the mall was in the first floor, there's a basement level below that low inside the highway went through there and there was tons of parking underneath in that first floor, so massive parking garage with a highway that ran through and all those spokes from the neighborhoods went through there and then the floor below that was another highway, and that was shipping. So all of your trucks and all of your delivery ports were in that bottom basement, okay, and so this is actually that idea was actually the brainchild for what disney world has now with all the tunnels, underneath, where all the characters travel underneath very different than the original idea for upcot. But that's where it came from was this concept and it was the way it was done in practice. Was they actually lifted the whole park because the water ceiling or floor whatever under underground in florida? It's too high, so you couldn't put basements that low, so they would have acted, had actually build up to get it up there. So anyways that's a cool like interesting concept and even in the mall, so you had you had your shipping layer, you had your highway like normal traffic layer and then you had your foot traffic layer in the mall, but the mall was high ceilings and then you had the monorail running through it. That was a level above and the people. Movers were the level above right. So it was almost like four layers of transport of shipping traffic flit traffic rail cause really interesting, and it did i mean theoretically, it would be great for traffic becausethere's, like all these different traffic options at different layers of the city, to get you in and out of different parts of the city faster, and so the theory was you could live off of one of those spokes or in one of the residential areas. Ur, take your people move in to the mono rail or to the mall or wherever you worked, or take the rail to the park, work in the park or take it to the industrial part right and do your work there and then the idea for the industrial park, and so this was why he did this first, as he wanted the industrial part to showcase all the new technology. Okay, if apple was there apple would, as you drive through, be like here's, their new phones, a ta riding through on the monorail and what the neighborhood would be around to morrow land is, they would be the test zone for new technology. So every time one of these industrial complexes came up with a new technology, they would give it to those people free to test. Okay, like right off the front which sounds kind of cool until you realize what his idea was hey whenever they, whenever ge puts out a new fridge, we're going to switch your fridge and like we're just going to come in and do it and like you, want a new like your tv, we're just going to switch your tv yeah, and so it was going to be the state of constant, like new retro, fitting all of your appliances and everything in your home. Your vehicle, like whatever, like wal, constatation, getting changed, and to be able to do that and to be able to run the city he we wanted to the way he wanted to run it. Well, we kind of live in that anyway. What do you mean? Yeah, you get a new phone every year yeah, but we do it by choice. This is not a choice. This is just here's your every six months. Someone comes in and takes so launching me. I don't take this phone. Is this caller going to shock me, and that was that was why this is literally why he didn't never run for office. He joked about it, but i think he's a people going to bring up the colt n n. No, he joked about it, but he was a little serious where he said. Well. If i ran for government, i want to have full control, and that was the idea for that joke mate. That was a joky batson, really e. I was not joking, that's i'm saying! Oh, so he- and that was the thing with epcot- is oh you a goin to run for governor and have less control than i do now. All right! That's cool! I'm going to take my people over home now yeah i about to go to up coll. I mean cot. It's sorry! So the idea. Can you add that when you go to your breath, so he so he added all these things into the city, but he wanted to make sure it wasn't a democracy. He wanted absolute control yeah because he didn't think his belief was if people had their say that it wouldn't go the way he wanted it to a god super weird so fast so, but because he figured he said. I think people are going to have a problem with us changing their house. Every six months is, is my world a aftermaths, terrifying all right, so so yeah that and then every every part of the city was very much put into like you weren't supposed to retire. If you're going to be a part of the city, you had to contribute and okay. So that's what i was going to ask like, so you are voluntarily becoming part of the city. Yes, so it's not like a there's. No there's! No representatives, there's! No! It's not a government thing. It is straight up like in his run by disney. Yes, he's the emperor o that con yes at ecal, kepher, pepere, apery aper, that kind of yeah. I see what you're doing hap king, i don't know but yeah. So it was a little better company company towns had been a thing for a long time. Have we talked about company towns? I don't think so. So company towns they've been around forever, and this is similar to a company town, basically idea of a company down forward. Did it there's like some famous plastics company that did it? That was a disaster in chicago about like ford, for example, for they opened up a company town in? I can't remember where, like venezuela or brazil, one of those like in south america and the idea was that it was going to be a rubber factory and everybody there was going to live and work theirs. They built all these homes for everybody, okay and they built the factory, and it was supposed to be like hey. We gave you a great life opportunity, and then you go you yeah, and so the problem was for was one of the more extreme examples. A lot of company towns. Did this, though, where basically, you were kind of on the hook, your employment and your light. Like your yeah, if you don't get fired so quit, then you lose. Then you lose your home right, yeah! That's what i was curious about. This dissney stuff is like. So how do you get chosen to live there? Well, i don't know exactly what that process was going to look like, because i still like very early for for disney, at least, but it wasn't a situation like the company towns, because there's multiple companies and the company that was running it. While they did have employment opportunities for everyone, they were the only employer yeah. I got o player, so you can work for apple and still live there yeah, but you had to work in the town like you had to work in the town. You so have a job outside of the town, the idea as you're contributing to epcot, no matter what so you couldn't retire. If you retired you had to leave if you weren't working, you had to leave and the reason for that is he thought that that would eliminate slow people. Oh sorry, he was like you know what i hate just his a graphic and the old is called in the olds to literally like sixty on at this time. I know that's what he's saying he's like i'm never going to be one of those i'm on work till i died. You know so he he, he fike, thought the problem with american cities and why there was crime and bad neighborhoods was because those people weren't working. He didn't recognize that it was income in quality, so he was like. If everybody works, there won't be any bad neighborhoods and so or he felt the same way about poor people that dave ramsey does yeah. Actually it was just like: oh yeah, it's just their fault: oh okay, o yeah, yeah, exactly and so he's like he's like, as if you work you can stay. If you don't work, you have to leave she's, fair, which i mean if you're, what about the cloten that what age that was? That was what was interesting to is that's why they did the green belt and put the schools in the green belt, because in the s adults were scared of teenagers, because the teenager with the baby boomers- and they were nuts- absolutely crazy. I mean, if you're going to put boom in the generation name yeah, so they put them in the green belt. So high schoolers have to work no, but they had to go to school yeah. It's the schools and stuff for in the green belt. In this idea, this ever happened. Yeah yeah the idea, the green, the high schools were in the green dot. So that way they were separate from everything else, because they yeah, because they're crazy to that, would do that still high school or start his cool restuck. You know and like i speak in high schools- and i know those high schools a listen to this, and i want you to know you sunk, you suck a t. If i chance i get to go back in time and somehow i am a high school student and listening to my own podcast you suck to dude. Like i straight up, i hate who i was then you know. I said this yesterday in ten years en i look back right now. Ten years ago i was seventeen years old right. Ten years from now, i'm going to look back. That would be like i was a freaking idiot twenty seven year old, twenty six, a wife is, is that is that constantly just looking back and being an i cause? I was thinking about it. My parents do that now my parents are like yeah but, like you know when, when you were a kid, we didn't know what you were doing and i was like you were my age when i was a kid well, i think i think, if you're the kind of person who grows your whole life, then oh yeah, if you're, not if you're, sitting here and you're going yeah, you know i've got this thing figured out the last twenty years. I want you to know everyone else around. You thinks you suck everyone else around. You thinks that you so and that's kind of the kind of bats o o n. He was that's a great point that, if you're growing, then you should feel a little bit embarrassed about how you used to be. But if you're not embarrassed at all, you said you suck you suck. You should be that's the rule, that's where, if you're not embarrassed it off, you should be, should be yes, what was it? It was just like. I s been great yeah and so out i can er. I could start a cold, that's what i was gonna say. I thought i could i thought about it, so i so i could never join one can never join. I wouldn't be o. I could start one. I hate that. I know that about myself, because i've grew self power because i've grown anyway, so they put the high scores in the green belt. Yeah they put. The high school is in the green bolt because they're scared of them yeah so so walt was like all right. Let's, this is still the early s when this idea is for they're, like drawing up plans for this yeah and they've already purchased the la not just drunk yeah they've already proceed the land, they're, building, scale models and they're actually building the technology, so they built thanks. Okay, yeah matereal exists, the monorail had already existed, the people mover had artis. Did they already use that stuff in disneyland, but some of the tuft that they re building that was really cool? Is they built basically like what we have for sewage? They built that for trash, so they were vacuum pipes for trash, and so you would dump that in your home or anywhere in the whole thing and disney world actually uses it to this day, and so disney world was a a we're keeping that, but is all the actions all the chat cans on disney. Will you drop them in there and periodically? The bottom opens up it's a vacuum and it just sucks all the trash down to a central trash corridor. No, a hundred percent, no crazy and it's the same come, and i asked that with a little bit of excitement, because i'm kind of like what happened that you follow it we should try. I don't think the pipes are big enough for a person in a is kind of jokes, the whole time what you don't think it's big enough for me. I said i only try to say for a person. Am i not a prosy person pick any person, anyone any person, anyone who told me to do an episode that epcot the kind of fit okay, so okay, so they suck the trash out. Have you ear till in podcast march? That's right. We have a merged store full of tillin bread and teas, hoodies mugs and so much more. We also make new designs for every single episode, but those are only available for a limited time, so get them, while they're hot text till into six six, eight six six to get your till in march today, so so the the trash is getting. I straight up, don't believe that i want to not want to see that in action, crazy, so were so go they there's like a central corridor underground in their little tunnel system. That's the trash room, just like star wars and it com packs it, and then they ship it out. That's crazy, yeah because and they're. Actually, a reason for that is, i find out think about i've, never seen somebody change your trash candid disney. You haven't because i got the trash the trash tunnels. I don't know what the call trachea total its as tubes, so the whole reason for that same concept disney had little things that really frustrated him. For example, try other linings, you just throw the trash and it sucks it out. I'm pretty sure you just thowt in it sucks it down mathis. The whole reason for it was disney could not stand listening to the trash trucks back up by his house. It's the little i can't be like and then driving away he's like. We need to come up with a way he's like. I hate traffic and i hate trashing. Okay, what is trafic? It's trash traffic, it's the trucks backing up and they do their me ma me then, and then you hid them, throw all the chest: a quasher, the person who runs the happiest place, the lord you're pretty unhappy with most things in the world. Why? Okay, i i i hate that some of them coming on the road and they got a person riding on the end of it. You know the person jumps off and grabs it right now get rid of both of them. Yeah put them on a ground, but like build a tunnel for him bar, i mean bury the road with them on it. So, okay, so yeah, so he they were. Hey at least he's providing solutions. Honestly, i do like the trash thing. Isn't that cool? That is super neat. It's i mean a massive undertaking for something. That's kind of slim yeah, we're already kind of have solved, but pretty cool yeah. I guess so. He, where they're at is they had the whole concept they have models. He's got this massive room in his studio with vaulted ceilings like twenty foot ceilings where they have maps plastered to the wall of this thing and they've got scale models on the on tables in this room like this is her. I me they're in the planning face and what you're iselin? How long is all that early s like sixty four sixty five? Really so the film this movie promote? When did they buy the land in florida? I'm not exactly sure. Actually, because i'm wondering early is. I know that yeah you keep saying that i'm trying to figure out what the timeline of all this is. How fast can you build a cold city? Well, he's like we'll have a football team, the way called the colts. You know that's where they came from. Let's see everything i'm finding is like in the s they bought. I guess what the key saying. Okay, i all right. It doesn't matter so as it's taken a few years, they're they're doing stuff on this, though so they're doing stuff on this they're working on the project walt. That's what i think it in my mind. This was always just an idea. I didn't know that they had like started. It was an idea telling a that turned into like something they were actually working on a they filmed. This thirty minute film, with two different with alten ending, so one ending was for for for florida state like legislators to basically be like hey. Let us do this, it's going to be awesome. The other in thing was for people who might live there. The other ending was for investors to be like put your money into this yeah, and so, but they filmed it theater those available yeah they do exist. They're really interesting is really intrest love to talk through the whole thing. It's not you to the whole things i need to be, can watch it coelina to it. No, i was that's what i expect you to answer. Thank you so the we linked to it it's in the description of wherever you're listening. Now he did it. Okay, just look for yourself see if you can find on google it hey. You can't say that search it did you know that they don't want you to, but it's not. I didn't make it legal. I mean they can't come after me. They chant really hard yeah. They can't it's free to speak. You know what i'm gonna say: google them. I like like hey what, if we made it something different, you know: hey google, be glad that it's search right now: okay, what he kin the like, they're, like hey. You can't say that any more i be like google, you dude, we can make this a whole thing, so be grateful that it's just a mean search, something right now, because it could mean something else of anyways. So waltz became just obsessed. Yeah arms epcot, like painfully obsessed, yea point where he was like when you can play a little train like when you realize that the reason people make train models is because they don't have control their own life and they want to have control over a little tiny people. Well, that's what he's doing with people with real people he was like. I can make epcot he's like he's like. I have always been able to control a lot. I want to control disneyland is a madman's like a rich person's train model fever tree literally there's a train there. It's a train model. It's like a model train villa, it's a model, train village, but it's real life, so they put it together. They quoted this thing in the mid of six about sixty five in the y. Five hundred million dollars, which would be today would be point four point, six billion dollars and he was like. Let's do it we're going ahead, and so he said he said he said this is going to take me. Fifteen years to complete right he's, gone freaking man he's trying to open it by the edes yeah and he's going insane yeah when the d everybody close to him as saying eis drinking is getting worse, you know becoming more radic well in sixty six. He died of lung cancer. Largely because of this i mean he smoked his whole life. But what happened was they discovered the tumor? They removed it and they gave him this this, like rest and recoup plan yeah, and he just said forget that i'm going back to work, google that he said, google that i'm building an epcot yeah, i'm busy. So he literally, they said, there's reports of him in his hospital room working after his surgery and then he gets out and he rests for a couple days- goes back to the office the day he goes back to his office. He dies. You think he would have made it if he didn't yeah, probably jeez. I saw a tactae other day and this guy is he's in a bunch of videos, he's kind of like a gary v kind of guy he's older ilho find it for you because he's like i work sixty four hours a day. You see that video now or he's just like he's like in twice as productive everyone else. So if i'm working eight hours, i've already working sixteen hours just there, because i'm twice as productive, because then i'm working sixteen hour days and because i've already working to ice pectorals, that's thirty, two hours right there he goes in then, with all this. I don't know how he got the sixty four. He doubles that again, so he's saying he's working si he's doing the equivalent of sixty four hours of work a day. Literally. I wanted to come in on and be like. Hey man, your kids, don't know your name like broly. That's pretty sad in that great coras. That's really sad! So yeah's! Basically what happened at disney. He dies yeah, and in did the hall a weatherby sure died, and i was like all right. I didn't want to say when he's alive, but this is crazy. Well, that's the thing everybody in the company, except for his number two was like this. This is a crazy yeah they put like this is insane like this is an casini. This cost too much. This is too big yeah and there's not enough opportunity for us to actually make money off of this, and so his number two was like. No, it's going to be awesome. Who was his number two mickey mouse? He was his number two fe yeah mick is not good at pisa. Think he was the face. Goofy was the one boon, the strings, the whole time you know, cufee was the one really making it work, so he he his brother roy comes in and all along this process. Roy was telling him you don't. This is crazy, don't do this and he literally like there's moments actually right before his surgery. There's a moment where someone came to him with some impo about the build and was like hey, this isn't going to work because of xyz yeah and he screamed at him and was like. Have you been talking to roy did boy. I tell you to say this because he knew roy was a lot more realistic than him and yeah. I was a crazy idea, and so after he died, roy took over disney the whole company yeah n, and he said i want to make this dream of reality, but we're not going to do this, and so he kind of repositioned everything as a disney world and eventually like they had the plan to in the future open epcot. But it was going to be a park. It was, and so he changed everything to just the theme parks a having the hotels and stuff like that, because the city of tomato thing it was cool so when people are always like walt, would roll in his grave if he saw what these parks have become: yeah they're right, yeah, actually because yeah, if he went to if he went to florida and saw what is he right happening now, yeah, okay yeah? He would he would be furious yeah, because he, because that's not that, wasn't a plan for him. The park was an after thought. It was just to get investors it just some in honestly. He probably would have closed it yeah i, after what have opened a lie if it was sustainable enough, he would have ben like. I don't want to have a park over here. Yeah there's no reason to have a park here, not in this city, not in this city parks, bring crime and poor people who i want those here, but yea and old. That's a lot of the feed back. A lot of people have because he has this vision for the city as if everybody's just going to be perfect, all the time yeah he's like the supreme ruler of it. But it's like what happens when someone's not like what happens when someone kills. Somebody because like it could happen like what are you going to do? Walk well, we've got my kilar whale takes that justice is swift, and so it was. It was an interesting idea for a city. It could have been really cool, but it's unrealistic because it's idealistic, yeah and also the problem. The idea is to be twenty years ahead of something for ever like that means literally every year you have to update it like you have to constantly be getting ahead of everything yeah, but that's what our culture does now. Well, that's, that's! That's the problem with epcot right now is the r they have the tomorrow land, but it's it's out at it's updated now, yeah, because it's tomorrow from ses yeah, it's like dipinto. The ice cream of yesterday came of the future yeah, but it's like you guys have been around for too long. Speaking of the future. When do you get to change your speaking of here's? Here's the thing about all this he was disney was a futurist. I'm not do you see my face where i'm not excited about whatever you're going to do right now. Disney was this feature he had this dream of the future and this crazy massive idea, everything he ever touched. His whole life turned to gold yeah. I think that there will be a disney and space now. I think they said this. I think disney is the elon musk of yesterday. Okay, okay, a are but hear that though we didn't, we mention that in the was it in the test, labat episode or whatever that when we do colonize the moon, there will be a disney up there we might have. We might think there will be a moon disney moon disney. Maybe where were they suck the trash? Then you just shoot it out the back of toxide of the mood she a little trash and guy with his it's a it's a new ipos, my show he's listening to his ipop, pushing the air life button. There's an ipod up. There he's an to an ipod he's. Should i pod he's got his head. I o have not existed it's the black and why, with the headphone thing and he's just like hitting the button and it's all shitter yeah yeah anyways, i thought it might be a good chance to hear from our space corns correspondent, it's braceman dan. What o space him say: space in space. I knows a lot about the future because, as you know, us space is a s right now. Here's what i hate is that you've chugged this, dr pepper for this bit. The only reason you've been drinking a did, pepper and like napping, able to breathe this entire episode is so you can say whatever you're about to say right now and honestly, i'm trying to stall as much as i can, because i don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear what space tom has to say. So i'm trying to talk as much as i can to avoid whatever is about to come out of this mouth all right. He spaced him yeah! No, i i! I recognized your voice ban. I honestly thought we had a good transition to bring you up and we're talking about disney on the moon, but then tim didn't cut to you to the moon here. Yet there's not really much, but it's the late to morrow. Wouldn't it be up there space to him yeah it's twenty years ahead, but the moon disney is not forty years out. Okay, okay, okay, othere! You go yeah, yeah a so space to it. What do you then? A? Can you see epcot from there? Oh yeah beautiful? They got there, they got the space ship, it lolotte up real welli. Think the goths, the you're able to see what kind of lighting they're using yeah or sonlike ar way better than like, because it's tomorrow that makes sense that makes sense. Yeah he's the thing: here's the thing go ahead: lodise he had we space tim. Are you teaching me now? Is space team finishing the episode? No, i just wanted to talk. Okay with my future outlook, i can give us some good insight. Are you from the future? Is that what this bit is? I didn't you were to see in space, but everybody knows spaces in the future. What times or is space central space time, everybody cst? That's why a do you guys have? Do you guys have the time change up there? Does that happen? For you, yeah jet lag is pretty bad up here. We call it rocket lag yeah, it's rough rocket leg as you a rocket at the pace. You know, i don't know if you knew that anyway. So, let's talk about epcot, it's it talks about the city being something from like tomorrow, but they missed it because tomorrow everything's going to be on mars in the moon and stuff, because we're going to blow the though you're, surprisingly very casual for an astronaut like your or total voices. Just you know you're like very bro. That's the thing that thing that people miss about astronaut that weren't just a couple of boys bros up here. You know i mean i hate this. Can we disconnect? Somehow? Can i hang up on space tube? I okay space food, it's nothing! But pizza rolls and bagabos. A pizza rolls bagel bites and space babes. Do you guys have tinder up there yeah we do yeah yeah. What's your radius, it's pretty wide. I e praestet were an organ, so just about every hour were or something else. So you know so you know you know how you get how it is. You know i play the field cast. I play the earth, you know in the globe. Yeah you get it yeah, so you guys are doing tinder in space a ball. This is off the people mover i'll. Tell you what i think space to him appreciate every time you come talk to us, no problem glad i could yeah it's not like he's literally doing anything else. He's he's up there watching on, like he's onto there, watching anterograde the spartan movie yeah, that's what astronaut art pain is waithed every night on this a yeah and because astronauts are so efficient. We actually work sixty four hours a day as we watch the movie three hundred, which is it's about three hours, o watch it twenty one times a time day. It's because time is a real up here. Oh man, you're telling me it's three hundred a week m. Okay, that was such a weird bit anyways. So i've caught is a crazy idea, yeah what it have worked today, probably not i mean i think you probably would have been able to build it. Well, i don't think you were to work because you see how outdoor malls turned out. You see how like the idea for malls was that they would be a place where people would live and then people were like. We don't want to live there, yeah yeah, it's i think like there are lots as zonaras that cost more than my apartment and no one. Why would you that do you want to live above? Fifty? Fourth street, you tell me, you want to go downstairs, walk out your front door, get some boneless was and then go. I gonna low you to him. What you're saying to me sounds really great. I'm seeing right now was you could walk outside get some boneless swings, get on the people mover and move your people back to your apartment. Here's what i think i think he would have built it. Yeah he's crazy. I think he would have filled it. I think a bunch bettie, let disney live longer. He would have ruined his legacy. Genuinely believe that we didn't let him live. Are you saying someone was like kill that man but make it look like something else? Was i give that guy one cancer he's gotta go? No, he isn't an it does sound like we murdered him. That sounds like a murder disney. No, i just mean like. If he had lived longer, he would have ruined his legacy. Maybe absolutely pass very, maybe possibly very very much, maybe yeah yeah. I think it would have filled it. I do think it would have been tough for him to get a bunch of businesses to move their headquarters there and to be that happy about, but he was basically trying to wait for what silicon valley is, though kind of, but but with what he wanted to do. Is he wanted everybody who lived there to be test subjects for all the products which i which they don't want to do? Companies don't want to do that, especially with their competitors right now, but that's what they do in silicon valley, though i don't know if they do that at the same scale, we should do an episode on silicon valley because they do some weird stuff out there, but i think that's what you know he's he's idea was that that would have maybe it would that have worked out. I don't know you know. Yeah may so is his brain frozen in that giant ball. Oh a hundred percent. That's! Actually, the ball is brain sized. That's how big disney's brain wones out i just inflated it. I said for a man, this big is gonna feed, a bigger brain yeah. He was taking whatever that stuff. Joe rogan takes it as the day after roy was like. I need to inflate it o reals, underneath the go, thou and ones like really. What are you doing and he's like i'm insulating wat's brain for spatio birth? Why you call a space ship birth? Don't worry about that one day this will be earth, but roy wasn't crazy. What was as c, what wasn't great? We don't know. We crazy think he might have the was a little crazy. So i didn't paint out. We can watch the video somewhere else. Can we post pictures of the maps and stuff yeah sure? I think, because i'm fascinated to see those yeah, it's really interesting. I mean it's a very interesting idea. I don't think it would have worked. I think he would have done it. I don't think it would have worked the way he expected it yeah. I think it would have it wouldn't have become disney world. The way that is now yeah disney world is very close to not happening. If what live we wouldn't have disney world, which is interesting. What it's a very interesting thing to think about. Anyways! That's a epcot all right that, oh things on last night is a production of space. Tim media produced by christian taylor.

The Dave Matthews Band Chicago River Incident – This is… Yikes

01-05-22

Episode Transcription

Made by robots, for robots. Only read if you're weird

Hey Man, what's up, have you ever heard of is a mouthful. The Dave Matthews Brand Chicago River incident. Is this an alien thing only of Davies as an alien but Dave Matthys Band Chicago River incident? Yes, yeah! Yes, what I said, I thought you were going to stop a dave, Matthews band and I was like how is this interesting in that war episode Brimont, I'm going to tell you something right now. Until I get through this story, you are going to have no idea where these twists and turns to. It's just keeps getting crazy, don't over hype, it don't over okay. So so what happened at the Chicago River Yeah? So on the Straggle River, I don't know if you've ever been to Chicago. Have you ever been to Chicago we've been to Chicago Multiple Times. This is my friend o the river? Oh, no, a little girl right. I you, but men, says: dump the POOP, they worship, the geese of the Chica's does dusted things. So you remember how like there's certain bridges over the river. I don't remember a thing about okay, so you bridges over just like over the river yeah o. Did you notice that a lot of those bridges are grated bridges? So it's just like open air to the ground, or I guess to the water on you. Remember that I do. I will now I'm just trying to piece things together, like I'm. Imagining Dave Matthew is holding a bridge concert for whatever reason right, they're, just like what's doing on the bridge or so next week will who didn't quite make it on the bridge they're just around and they're like I'm on a bridge, you know, and then the bridge collapses. No! No! This is worse than that. Oh Geez, okay. So, yes, I know the great that you're Tilney have the greater bridges. So, on August eighth, two thousand and four Dave Matthews Band was playing a set of shows in east, troy, Wisconsin, which is not far from Chicago, so they got a hotel for a two nights, stay in Chicago here's, something interesting about the Dave Matthews Band that I never knew they travel with five tor buses. These are the interesting that I never knew. Not a single one of them is named Dave. Man Have Five pour buses, so probably because you know you get how many people are in the band, it's one its five, it's a a reach. Member yeah I go say some bands do that some bands are yeah. We did ORLEE making the level of income, because a tour bus is pretty expensive that tousand a day. I actually think that they're doubled up on a couple of their buses, because they've got like a hundred members. I was gonna say they've got they've got it's not a seven Ba, but also clue travels with them, yeah. Well, Esel. What happens is a lot of the like? The main band will riding a bus together and then the main crew, like your head, people, will ride in a bus together M and then they will charge her some some busses for everybody else's for other people, yeah M, so they have and they've got a lot a big band, a very big band. It's rather bridge fell, so there yeah, so they have five buses right, okay and they were staying in Chicago. For that the two not sae buses on the bridge. No, I keep trying to jump ahead of you on. I word incident does make me feel like it's an alien thing, though you know that's honestly, but go ahead. So it's August state t two thousand and four yeah five baces Ri, bunches, Olinto Chicago all of them go check in at the hotel. One of them is separated from the group. Nobody else is on it. Everybody else goes on O they'll go back into E. I thought your Serbie members of the band and then one member of the band is separated from the group and I I don't know if he'd call it separated from the group, so four buses, then cord of the hose buses, go to the hotel. Well, all of us is go to the hotel. Okay one leaves the hotel goes somewhere else, yeah right on purpose or do the bus just go. It was like Hey Phantom bus, just let act so they, the busleaves, the hotel and the only person is the driver, allegedly okay, and when this bus travels over the Kinsey Street Bidge, it's crossing the Kinsey Street bridge. At the same time, Chicago's Little Lady, which is an open air boat, is traveling underneath the bridge, and so this is let me let me pick the picture of Chicago's Little La Chicago's little lady is, I thought you were Tito. The little lady meant like the mayor's daughter. That's what I thought like the first lady is the mayor's wife, the little Chicago's little lady. I oh no, a little girl it let the little lady that is a boat. It's a boat, it's a charter boat and what they do. is they it's an architecture, tour of the city? Okay, travels along the river and it points out all the famous architecture in Chicago. Is it little lady or little little it's little? This is a very upscale event. It is care twelve hundred dollars an hour, see for a single ticket yeah. So ve I like to see the architecture, but I don't want to get anywhere near it. Can we look at it from the water, so this is like a very upscale torse straction. This has been ranked on multiple occasions top ten towards attractions in the world. Like literally, I look at Architecture and Chicago that builder Yeah Yeah to float along the river and pay twelve hundred dollars to see that builds in its to windows on it and then over here this building got got some windows ain't a pointed thing. At top this one, that's what is less wins less were in it. We countered one day because that's what we do. It looks like the same amount, but is less some of you re thinking. Do we just take a lap? That's because in the S, architecture was really. I mean their nerds man. I like that yeah yeah, so so this is a very upscale, okay, tors attraction and they do a thing where the bus is coming over the bridge little ladies underneath the bridge the same time, yeah as as it now is Dave, Matthews tour bus got his face and stuff on. It is one of those tour buses. I actually don't know, I don't know if they do, but I do know that this, but I imagine that that kind of tour bus would offend the cloud on the Little Lady, but I wish I could see the city without this Gaudy Bossin away. I wanted to see the architecture not dave. Matthews is his face on the side of the bus. Just it's the dame matthews revertor. Let's go see all the pictures that day fates in Chicago this is a Bas. He show that night was is a slide show of the architecture in okay. This is got that of her. I know it is just so I'm waiting for us the bus, the bus was actually the best belonging to the violinist. I I should say belonging. It was the violinists bus, so boy Tinsley is his name. Okay, the Boyd allegedly wasn't on the bus. Allegedly it was just the driver whose name is Stefan Wall. Okay, this is horrible. As he's driving across the bus or as he's driving across the bridge, he notices Hey, I'm a busy tour bus driver. We drive all over the place. We got lots of itineris. There's lots of things to do all the time right. The bridge I'm crossing over right now is a great at bridge and I have a full septic tank, and so he says no way. Let me just kill two birds with one stone and empty the tank. Real, quick and says he's passing over this bridge. He dumps, as he's driving yeah, he's just driving no way eight hundred pounds of waste on to this bridge, which is a graded bridge, and so it dumps down into the Chicago River below on to the little lady that is passing underneath at the same exact time and covers two thirds of the passengers and literally eight hundred pounds, a boat of boss, poop of bus did that pass and on us. That's why I for head go to the hotel because they weren't river trained right and so spotty train anyway. So I bus as is he moving as he's doing it he's moving across it's one and fifteen in the afternoon, he's moving across his grated bridge and he's like. Oh it's great this is he oh. I am never saying crop dusted again. I am one hundred percent. Only saying bus dust do Neti, just kept walking bus dust was dusted. I totally don't I bet at all. I thought you were going to say Dave bathes, which is da day man mates that but bus dusted, that's better yeah, so just drenched the whole boat or there photos of this. I don't think, there's I don't think, there's photos o lime. Can I see the boat? That's what I'm trying to picture yeah here. Let me let me get so. These are heady toity people who have paid twelve hundred. Imagine that, though, imagine you're not a hody twenty person right and you've saved up twelve hundred dollars and then you're going through looking at, like Oh look on the windows that building has and oh yeah and it's like built a cup in the sewage on top ye ye. It's not it's not Wa! That's! That is not a God. This is not designed. You are hang out on top of this boat yeah rough rough scenario, yeah, and they were like. Oh Man, if only we were Chicago was a little later. You know so we just time this thing: a Hor yeah. The timing is there's no way that at that feels intentional. You think they tried that I think Dave Matthews was like listen. One time I tried he just he's been trying to book a shelf, daland he's pretty womaning this boat he's like one time I tried to get on that and they were like you, your Dave, Matthews. So here's what I want you to do. I want you to be dude. I want them bus to poop on that boat and if it's intentional, that's pretty pomp rock. So he is the thing, so the Illinois atterir already illegal. He can't dump that there yeah, no he's not yeah you're, definitely not supposed to just dump that in the river yeah come on, so to begin with it's a legal act, but to don't but a one people of people, it's even worse. The only noy attorney general said that passengers aboard included persons with disabilities, aller, elderly, a pregnant woman, a small child in an infant and the filing. Listen to this quit as the liquid waste was bronical and color had a foul offensive, odor yeah they were offended. They were very offended by it. The liquid way sweet in the passengers eyes their mouth, their hair on the belongings and clothes. I don't like the first is God in my throat from that, and then it's fine. Some passengers suffered from nausea and vomiting. Well, of course you did you don't have to tell us that, obviously yeah you're be pooped on.

Of course, I held a baby. We or we your is like it was like I've not been to. I I on a dog prony. Now the closest I've ever got to be noe one. What are you even just said is phrase the closest I've ever got to be covenden. I barely missed it you're, not going to believe it yeah now he's at even I was that a McDonald's, a real story. I thought you were just doing a bit. I was MacDonald seven years on oon, okay, McDonald, seven years old in the ploy place in the play place, yeah just going up in the tunnels as high as I can, and then I come around a corner. All quick and there's just a pile- and I was just like- oh no- I was a- I was in Nashville Tennessee this weekend and at a Walmart I was walking out, and there was you know on in the wallar parking lot. There's a little brown thing on the her off. Didn't you step in one of those in San Antonio, when we were on tour being a dog poop. No, it was a human. You think is a human it I feel like I've ever stepped in human, certainly stepped in human. I don't think so, but I definitely looked out at this and I was like I don't as a dog that doesn't seem very do Antonio Human Poop does not sound familiar to me. Maybe I block that out in my mind, when you brought up Nashville thought Yo were going to talk about last week. You were in the play place at McDonald's in Nashville, and I pa had to go so here's the thing there was. Another incident will not another incident during the same incident. There was also traffic on the bridge behind the bus and so years later this never hit the news years later. Someone came forward and was like how was the car behind the bus. Let me tell you what I saw they were like the like: here's, the thing they're like it was a beautiful day. I had my windows all rolled down. Yeah me my husband, and it was a pregnant woman. She's like he was me and my husband and our todd, their son in the back seat and our baby inside me. The windows right on dose were rolled down and she's like it's been really bad. I had really bad morning sickness all the time whatever and then that dump happened and it just flattered because it because it was a great. So not everything went through the great and so there's just a P. I l that they drove through and it splattered everything up all over their car and into their car. Oh my ba the windows open, and so she starts. She starts puking all over the yes, obviously trying to drive a man. I know now in your car that wouldn't be a big deal. I I I have a payment, you know like. I would be on a paper. You know I'd be like. Oh my gosh. This would be honest if that happened to my car I'd, throw it away you a it already. Is that what we take I'll go go in your car right now, Dude is how it we take. We said Poop way to me. I know I just think that I was like yeah. This is people already think were like Middle School, humor you're. The Ly brought this story of Dude because it's ridiculous man so so far I've seen all the twist coming. You did not I. When is the thing after this happened? Nobody had nobody had any any idea. What happened because they didn't know, is Dave. Matthews bands bust, they just knew somebody drove over and dumped all to save Matthew Lit, take credit for it. An it's like. I have a public statement to make hey guys or does he say, listen, here's my demands. I've got four other Busar in the Fitz, Patrick Hotel E or demands. So we were, we want seven tickets to the little lady he's like trying to bargain for him a Dole. So okay, so they don't. So this investigation goes under way of them, trying to figure out whose bus was that which is a true crime podcast whose bust is that a bus due blut dust, the podcast we should bust the bus, bless buses, okay, so so they're to look in for the bus right yeah and they be hard to find you susy got. They got dogs out trying to follow the scent sore looking for the buzz yes, so I start looking for the bus, I should say nobody had any sort of like everybody on board. They all went to the hospital and they got checked out. They didn't get any sort of disease, show they just all that yeah they just it was just gross. It was just really gross yeah, they threw the butt away said I not fire and let it out into the e Michigan the like it's the lakes. Now a single tear old down their cheek. They still, they still take it. They actually they point out the bridge on the tour they said. This is where the Dave Matthews been this building was was designed by a French architect, shut, a dip, it back now to say a French name, so I just said Gibrish and then this bridge- and they say it like, like Bruno Mars's song, this bridge, you know you had that song. You know dis anyway, so this bridge is where dat they hold. Call Him Dave David Matthews, her two D, a forty twenty for that right. Then the newspaper the next day said horny toilers of the reels, okay, so so they're looking for the boss, they're looking for the bus, they were able using security, camera footage from a nearby gym to get the license plate from that bus. Okay, so they say: okay, we got them so they found that the bus belonged to another bus driver in the day of Matthews Pack, and so they try to check it down and he had an alibi. He was like. Oh, I was checking at the hotel and and it lined up and so they're like that's us to there's footage of me. Yeah he's footage me at at the hotel. It wasn't wasn't me and they're like but like, but what were the other drivers names m? No, I road dave. My name is Dave. This is Matthew, so so they did check that. Stefan wool was the one driving the bus on the tour, but he denied being out at that time. He said we were all at the hotel. Do you know what happens he's driving over the bridge? The bus driver go? Oh, you go, oh gray, that's not good! Like him him and the entire Dave Matthews came. He did was linnit. No, we didn't do that. Wasn't that did happen. He we were all a tour in town like we were all at the the hotel. Have you asked Tale Time? Where was her boss, yeah yeah, so they're denying it to the nights right right? Eventually, they were able to find on another security. Camera footage, an image of stuff on driving that bus and they're like this? Is You and his okay? I des like yeah and then Dame vates was like? Oh Oh. He really did do that and they're like great sweet, and so he got fired from as their tour bus driver. He also pleaded guilty in March two thousand and five. This was a year long investigation and Mary doesn't five what what do they charge them with, so he pleaded guilty to reckless conduct and disk discharging contaminates to cause water pollution. Oh yeah, because either way, that's you know both there or not that you can't dump that stuff in the river yeah absolutely so he was sentenced to eighteen months probation and had a hundred fifty hours, a community service and pay to final ten thousand dollars to the friends of the Chicago River, which is not an organization it yeah. I was on a just some people like this is my friend the river. It's just like you know it's a anti social O, just people who don't have real friends. They are just friends with the river, then them and there's another there's. Another group that hangs out by the Chicago River called the Phantom Goose and they just they worshipped the geese at the Shiyu 're, going to go like a like a superhero angle also that to protect the river they protect the river. So they then the Dave matty's band they donated fifty to the friends of the Chicago River. They're, look, sorry, but they said sorry. He only gave you ten tousand dais his salary yeah. They said, we've got a lot of money, left overs firing yeah, and then they also gave fifty Sandolas to the Chicago Park district. Okay, because they were like you, guys kind of had something to do with the river, and then they paid two hundred thousand dollars the state of Illinois as a settlement, because they sate in one and sue them and they're like hey. If you keep it quiet about this, if you need you two hundred thousand dollars, maybe let me speak in language might understand, he's the thing: how about you make this disappear and they're like we're? Not The you know, we're not the Mo right I'd like Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, love tilling podcast and want to support the show. Well, you can support us by buying till an podcast march and wearing it out in the wild. We have teas, hoodies, shirts and so much more in our merch store. We also have exclusive march for every single episode, but those are limited so make sure you get him. While you can text till in to six six, eight six, six to support the show. Thank you so much. So what was unfortunate for the day Matthews Band is at the time they were pretty outspoken, environmentalists, yeah, and so it was. I was a really bad look for them to be too like it's not like Dave was David. Divane was like go dump this in the river allegedly alleged. We don't know, that's true! That's true! A in two thousand and nineteen Steven Wall was a guest on a radio show what okay? That means he'd, be a guess of our podcast, but that's a different thing to we can get him. We can get it. We can get someone in Chicago. Some radio show in Chicago was like remember that time, Dame Matthews pooped in the river and this one was- I was on them and they're like kid who was seven years old. The time now graduating high school is here to confront the person who traumatized his childhood up next Steven, what Stepan, steet state Stephen Stephen Snappin, wool yeah, so Stephen World comes and he talks about the events of what happened and he was. He said that he just didn't put two and two together that what the but your Botta says, dump the poop was gonna. Do that? Well, no he's like we was like well, it's great he'll go on the river I'll, just wash. We were fine whatever, so he did do it on purpose, so he did to do it on purpose. So he got this radio interview and she is a bomb shell, okay, and he says he says I didn't act alone, the narrative up until that point was he was there on his own and so he's saying he was the fall guy he's. He was saying: There's other people president and he covered for them. So he didn't act alone. Why would you say that's so? Did he say those words yeah sees is like well, you know, honestly and- and I know ithis might be hard for you to hear Michael, because this did traumatize your whole childhood and you know you dropped out of elementary school be, and I'm really sorry about that. But I didn't act alone. Okay, who else was it it rhymes with save slave a so? He just drops he's like hey, I didn't nick alone yeah and the radio. The release of the radio show thought it was the dumbest thing little one. They literally made fun of him on Air. They were like no they're, like, as you did they're like you're, just trying to tell in a lame that often you, you weren't. You were number two in this operation yeah, so he tries to pretend like they made like the Dave. Matthews band made him the fog guy and he wasn't responsible for the scenario. A yeah and the radio show was like shut up the s like listen, e's been fifteen years, yeah you're known as the bus duster. All right just take. What does he do now can't draw in to her boss? I S Yeah you're not allowed to drip. I don't know what he does now, actually no idea, but you to find the buses a drive over bridges. Wherever we we get to a bridge, I got drive, we got to pull on her switch the driver, I don't know how to drive it either to its very iasion yeah. So one of my favorite things about the whole incident, though, was mayor at the time Mayor Richard Daly, how the press, to a DA little these dead Little Ladies Dad held a BRASCA conference and in the press crafers. He said this. The dumping is absolutely unacceptable. Yeah then he pauses, and he says I do believe I forny go. He says he pauses after talking about how unacceptable was he positive says. I do believe, though, the Dave Matthews Band is a very good band. What what they do so, except dumping is Los Pretty good. You know, like don't punish them on the music charts. For this I got their song on Napster and it's pretty good. They were like what was that he is like I I legally download I bought it, no hear we knew. Did you do that, but I mean guys the dump. It's not a good. Look, it's not a go. If you ignore that and just listen to the song, it's not much better yeah. If you ignore the dumping, the song is pretty good, yeah, so yeah. So after the investigations to find got charged, and it became this thing, that's sort of like a legend of Dame matthes in Chicago every time I comes to town, it's the the river incident. Every time it comes down, people were get up. Etat is there's a way. There's a memorial that someone said a oars has or that on so like a plaque out there, David, that's Matthews, hold on the me find a memorial. It's not! It's not well done I'll. Tell you that much okay, but someone o. let me see if I can yeah so is in August, two thousand and four at this very location, a d MB standing for Dave, Matthews Band, as if anybody walking by we'll see that thing. Do you be yeah? You know DB torbus dumped eight hundred pounds of Pooh on some people. That's the memory. What is it was, as is Hashtag never forget, has tag always remember is literally like a piece of Postero that the table, so this had ever for they taped and they taped into the the bridge DB. Tour, bus, Yep, wow, yeah, pretty rough, pretty rough, so yeah so next time year, Chicago, try to find that the Kins street bridge and remember how fortunate you are to be walking across it now, instead of on what was it Augtus August, eight, two thousand and four, that's a whole episode. That's it! Yes, it's a quick story. Oh Yeah, okay, you know, here's what's really interesting, don't fiddle them off yet, okay, why? Now you can? Okay, I just want to make the episode a little longer. I don't know like it just feels like cause it. We just got in this. You told me there was twists and turns yeah we get, we get them all. We got a M, it's a quick story, but it's a fun story, Defero. What is depend saying? I didn't act alone. Yes, Stephen said he didn't act alone. I think we could do a true cram podcast on this. We should do a true cram podcast by the way we should, which anyway so Dave Matthews. If you don't go see a pot does fetal Dave. If you're listening to this, there was a violinist bus, it was yeah, goes pretty deep man, anyways feddle, that one off things are done.

Ham, man, Oh happy holidays, hey how the gun! I fear, I feel cheerful, why? I don't know: Okay, Hey man, Hey! What's up, have you ever heard of Sana? No! This is a good one. We already did the episode about him, though now we did yeah remember how he's red and his horns so the little weird tail yeah we did Satan took a break and then did Sanna. We did Satan mice and Sanda you're telling me they're different. That's the that's the really! What Christmas is all about. Seeing my licence sat. You know the three wise men, okay, so Sana Santa Saint Nick, Oh so you've heard of them. I've heard the tails disclaimer. If you're listening to this episode with your kids, stop just like the disclaimer from the sand, Satan episode, Teaou, Your Kids, stop! If you listen to our podcast with your kids in general, chill out on that you, if you don't, want your kids to know the dark side of saint o'clock, I make you get out of here, things's, pretty accurate. I'm glad you made that disclaimer yeah me too, because some people rely pretty upset if you're an adult, hey o. We were, let's have a conversation, real quick yeah conversation with Tillin I'll, never forget. I was at a table a chill like dog. I was at a table very similar to this one. When someone told you the truth, yeah I sat down, it was I it was very similar to when I was toned up. My name wasn't: Tj came home from school, a e at the table and they're like Tj, and they sit down your parents back down with you they're like sit down. We the have a talk, and I was like- and I was like I like. I know my name's not Tj, and they were like. No, it's not about that to so like this is about Satan. Sanna Seh is the deal if you're watching this. Is this still you your as no Okaya this and you're an adult or if you're, listening to this and you're an adult. I have some sad news that we need to get out of the way from the front. The SANA that you know in love is a by product of Coca Cola. He was a marketing tool of the use in the S and s to sell more Coca Cola. Sorry to ruin your life yeah he's, not the presence. Your Dad worked really hard for, or your mom wow rely yeah. I'm really glad that you went the sex is bad or your mom work really hard for that. You get cancer, this guy from your church or some other couple from your church. Oh okay, it's o o rating gifts. Somebody we rounds like your dad worked hard for the E or your mom or some guy from your church, and I like all right like so freeer year, but you wending your family and be like listen Deborah. You need a man who can provide gifts for your kids and give credit to Sanna. These are from is humble enough to get credit to sit San. I would like to take you out. Why do you think your mom loved that Song Sang a baby baby? Okay, so anyway, anyways not that that's out of the way. So Sana he's got an organ story: Yeah he does and there's probably bits and pieces. Every villain does there's bits and pieces of it you've probably heard of before yeah. But honestly, even looking digging into this there's a lot that I never heard and there's a lot that I'm like, oh well, that's how that just kind of turned in or flood it became sure just like Satan. This is actually can be very similar to the Satan episode perfect. So I guess we should begin really putting your degree to work. Yeah Yeah! I guess we should begin with saying it in the Old Testament. No okay! So Yeah! Where do you start? I think the best place to start to Saint Nick. So if you don't know, the story of San Nick Sat nick was a dude in the fourth century and he was that's way longer ago than I I thought, hm what part of the World Myra North Carolina or century North Car. You know year three hundred eighty three Ul beach. No, he was he was born in or he lived in Myra, which is modern day DEM re that if you know where that is, but it's a town in in Greece during the fourth century, he was born to parents who had prayed for a long time for a child because they couldn't have kids and they ended up having him. So it was like this real miracle baby yeah. They both actually died shortly after his birth of totally unrelated reasons, and so he became an orphan and was raised under one of the local priests and the priest talked about it. He's like he's like it really was. I don't have an explanation for how it happened, but he was just a great kid like he was just the priest talks about it. He edidit today, you try. You know it's good kid. I think a a yeah. We talk about the priest talks about it. Well, I mean the priests like Ron stuff down. Okay, they had es he sent to people that like got things I like a Nicholas so nick. He had a pretty big inheritance from his parents, though, and so when he be carfree get the inheritance to I mean I guess well I mean I get they do now to I guess at least in four century Greece. What kind of inheritance I don't know exactly the hair. How old is pretty big? I don't know how old he was. He was a child like a young child when his parents died got the inheritance when he became there. This is your house now and he was like he was like cool. Can someone explain utilities to me again? I don't understand the fourth century. EANT CAROL A taxes. I don't get the taxes thing. Okay, I get, then they just take my money every year and they don't do anything. That is it's always work yeah. So so so he gets the inheritance, but he was always kind of the kind of guy where he was just like humble and he didn't need nice things, and so he always was kind of like. I don't need this inheritance, so he never really touched it. Okay, but there was this local family. The guy had three daughters, but he didn't have the money to marry them off and in that culture the father had to put up the money to make them off. They got married and no wife was good right. If they couldn't get married and the father couldn't put up the money to marry them off, then they would go into slavery. That was kind of the two options for women and that day, and he thought that was wrong. He didn't like that and he knew he couldn't change the Sissone Nick Yeah. I well he's not saying yet yeah just Nicholas just Nicholas just okay, so regular nick regular nick. He knew he could to do that and but he also knew humiliating for the father if he just gave him a bunch of money to pay for his daughters, and so one night he just snuck over to the house and tossed a bunch of gold in the chimney. So that way that one of the daughters could get married, and so that happened and happenstance they had a bunch of their socks hanging up to dry. Next to this chimney and the gold fell in the SOK o o by that on that part, I don't buy that o the next morning, an hotoke you're telling me this guy shooting gold through the chimney and hitting ten out of ten nothing but sock. Are you kidding her and I'm sure there was gold all over the floor too, but there's such a sucks. How was enough to marry her off, and so then they started praying he just marry one of them. Please he's! Oh because the father has to put up the the fit has to put up the money, and so he has tiles. She was still like that you know okay, yeah yeah, so the father basically had to buy by to marry your daughter pay me baby to do it. I'd like to be your daughter, that'll, be fifty an here's. Here's my invoice. You know you can I mean I take. I don't take checks, it's two thousand and twenty one yeah, but you can cash at me just scan my qr code. Here you go so the daughter got married and then he started praying and like at the the Var the fathers praying for the other daughters to be able to give like wow God. Please send more make it Rales and lane gold coinsdown into my socks, down my timney's and so Nicholas. Does it again and again and pays for all three daughters to get oh by literally throwing money into the chimney while the third time he does it he gets caught. Somebody is like he wos, like he neeme we've heard about two instances of you throwing golden chimney or doing a true crime podcast. We Are we're trying to figure out a host in the Golden, the chimney you know, and so so we were ordering. If you be availe for an interview, real quick, we can jump on a new, you you're, being recorded you're, really it right now and it's four hundred all right, the three, the fourth it there's a guy over here with the Stone Tab just is like it could be real hard to get this in everyone's riss yeah. No, I knew I was being recorded. I can hear him a mile away, you know, guy in a super sun jumps out and it's like mutual combat, there's another guy over a different quarter. Also chiseling was like and then he jumped down and said you tual combat, but the user vs, and that's how you know. As the fourth century moves know, you know that the Phoenix judge jumped out of the fire, Sara saying the US are vs. you know how they call you get in and know how they couldn't do round in to use they could it they just didn't these. Were you yo know that, okay, so anyways to say, nick or first, who drew you, they freaking paraded him around. Oh, my gosh, so we're got out that Saint Nick was throwing money down people's Fuca fire to me. Everyone was like everyone's walking by on town they're, like they're they're, opening their socks hopping on one leg, just like a I mysse would hate is some goal fell in here you know. Well, what happened is he would, on his birthday every year, go around to all the kids and throw gold wherever I y new kids live just throw golden the chimney for the kids, and so he was just a friendly dude. He did en kid birthday would leave their shoes and their socks by the chimney to in hopes of catching the gold in their socks, which I mean just pick it up, but it's what ever I I well if it's as e floor, it's bad luck for a year at gold. That's that's! For Gold, that's fog! We can use it! That's how snobby everyone was in the three hundreds they're like, oh that's or so his legacy outlived him as being this dude. who was just incredibly generous. He always given stuff away. He ended up becoming a saint in the Greek Orthodox Church, and then there was the sixth of December became Saint Nicholas Day, okay, and so they always would celebrate and what people would do as they would give gold to their children in their socks under the fireplace every Saint Nicholas Day. Okay, so it was kind of a very a cold yeah, very early precursor to you know. It was really weird bad times that sometimes people w l get gold coins and it would be like why they flip it over and they go. Are you disappointed on the back? So you disappointed that this isn't real gold I'll tell you what is real gold Jesus Christ? It's like! Oh, you know those fake hundred or bills, fake gold, so Martin Luther this is this is silly man's goal. They didn't know the word full yet so about a thousand years later, Martin Luther during the reformation yeah is like everything. Catholics got to go, and that includes Saint Nicholas Day. That was in the on his reformation papers. Yeah everything yea is ninety five CS, PCS number. Ninety three get rid of Ta Nicklas Day out of here a yeah replace it, and so he moved it to Christmas. On the two thousand and fifteen of it yeah, he was like he's like well celebate Christmas on the twenty fife decent. When did they get Wenti Christmas start being on twenty fifth December? Well, we're going to get there, I mean we can jump into that right. It's a different topic. It's relatively similar! It's Edi! I was going to cover it. Okay, okay, do sorry about it. Do your little lesson plan or whatever. Well, this is perfect. It's a perfect chance to get a little pig in perfect a perfect pagan moment yeah. This is perfect, Pagan, Pagan, yeah, I'M THE PERFECT PAGAN! Okay, so I here's the deal. Everything Christian is Dolin from Pagan Religion, yeah yeah, actually very accurate because they were like it's basically like how. Basically Christians saw people doing stuff and they were like that's Christian now and they were like wait. What I like? No, you can't listen to music, but you could listen to Christian Musa. So basically what happened was like. Does anybody know what the Christian alternative to Christmases and the guys like Yeah I've actually got a poster over here, both Rismas, I in the Christian alternative to Christmas, actually you'll be surprised. They call it Christmas before it. They did. Oh, and so this poster here you'll see cutlass is the Christian Slip Knot and a cur? That's as hard as I ithout, even in Christmas anyway, third day, the Christian nickel back. Yes, they are it's so an so. There was a couple of Pagan religions. Read is the Christian creed? I think right that isn't he Christian with arms, Wide Barn? Have you or a love on been diagnosed with too many advertisements during the till an podcast? Have we got good news for you, our patrons enjoy, add free experience and they get early access to content behind the scene, stuff, exclusive merchandise and access to a private discord channel. We all are in it our producers and the hosts. So if you'd like to be a patron today and solve that problem, why don't you text till in to six six, eight, six, six! You know: okay, so s, some Pagan Holidays, so akin holidays, there's a couple of them in December in December sombody how under the winter? So is. Oh, my God, I don't know you should prepare for some of my question time. Okay, so there was the winter. Solstice was a thing yeah a long time, and so basically it was the holiday in the northern countries. Okay call in the North Countries, for if you want to say north but shorter, nor you're too lazy to say nor a bunch of the norse norse country. Maybe it was north the whole time and someone has had a lisp well yeah, the North countries that tracks we go by north o t about norse s. We conquered you so it's north. Now there was the midwinter of that they called Yule and so you'll try to get you all tied from and part of. This was the father in the summer. They would go out in the woods and they would get what was called your lock, which was just a big log that they would light on fire all Christmas. Well, all youll perfect as they could see because they were so far it last the whole time. Well, here's the thing it was the winter solstice and they were so far north that it was that time of year where it was dark forever, like the suddint, come out, that's right, and so it's a really weird season because they for them, especially at that time of the world you had the sun, doesn't come up for months. It's super cool because it's the winter and then also you're, very superstitious so and everybody round, you believe and go a and s die from the races. It's super cool everyone around he's, getting diseases or dying because they're super cold, yeah and the sun won't come out and so that time of year, you're like this is evil. There's evilness afoot and it happens every year, and so they would light the logs on fire and use that to fend off evil spirits. And then there was this idea that there was these gods like Odin that were coming and protecting people or killing people and and evidence by here's, the guy who died and here's a guy. I was just thinking I was like how do you know if it works? Oh yeah, they died. Yeah, they lived interesting that everyone who did the right things got anyway, and so it interesting little side Bar. There was a cult of Mithra. The cult Mithra. Have you heard of that? So there's this. I think you've heard of myth roll at s same thing. So this is a very interesting, almost all side, tangent, okay, I don't know enough about it for us to go super deep into it, but there was a I real. The dark, the Iranian God of the Sun Mythra had a pretty big cult following and an around the similar time of the year. What they would do is to guarantee their survivall through the winter basically and then ask and also ask for favor for the following year. They would go to this celebration where there was this giant idol of Mithra, which was the god of the Sun, and this God was honestly picture. The fiery furnace from veggie tales with you had a giant chest that just opened up, and you threw your kids in there and said they sacrificing their kids yeah. They sacrifice their kids to this God to be like here's. What I want for this year or help me survive this winter. Here's my child, how many kids did people have back then enough? What you could throw summer one away for every year, and then how do you decide which one yeah I mean it probably worked a lot better than the cold for Christmas thing, yeah be good or I'm throwing you in Mitres is well. We have high expectations as a family here, what's really interesting about Mithras, for this discussion, two things one: He wore a red hat with a little white boof ball at the end of it interesting little, poof, ball, okay, and to here's, something that so very very predated Christianity, but he this God Mithras. He was the god of the Sun and his role in mythology and I'm shaky on the story line, but whatever it was, he died for the sins of his followers and he rose again three days after okay, very odd anyways. That's all I know we all wearing a poof ball was o fat and people were in accepting child sacrifice in his chest. Give me I oh that's darker now like yeah, we go. Take our annual pictures with Mittra one less kid: every year I watch the YouTube mythra bass pro he orated. I watch the Youtube video actually, where a guy was like raging about Santa. He was very mad. You can tell the way narrated it and he showed a bunch of pictures of kids like crying on Sanna's lap yeah and he was like he was like. Why do you think infants always hate Santa because they know they like he's like he's like they can sense the evil. In her look at those moments, trouth now mom mither a sacrifice, your kid outside of J C Penny. So so they took okay. So there's a little bit of a s mythology. They took some stuff from myth, rest and then they just Chile, Little Oran of Sane, Dick! Well, here's what happened! There became this teaching of. In Finland there was a guy named you Lo Boki, you Lubo. I believe, that's how you say that. Why do you sound like you're talking to a baby right? Now? You believe here's the translation of that here's, the translation, Christmas, goat, Oh heck, yeah de that's what they called Sina the Christmas go well, and I don't really understand why but he's the Ulupi, which is a I'm calling sane from now. Is it a creepy? Looking goat? I don't think so. Let me pull up a picture. I imagine like the goat from no last I, which movie was where it's just like this. Is the Christmas goat he's like red eyes and he's like is it's honestly? He looks at very similar to SANA. Okay. He just got a longer beard, like he's still wearing all the same. Clothes he's just got a longer greater beard, it's like of Gand off and saying now we're one person, okay, I've seen so I call and thin he's tall and thin too also so, okay, but he's called a goat yeah because apparently he turns into a goat on Christmas. I don't really understand yeah, but it's a hard way to find out that you're, the next one. You know it's like it's The t Tim Alan Movie For one day he wakes up, but he looks in the Mer and he's he's tired. You know he wakes up his grog an we up, he's shaving his little goat, but he's like winsie. I don't. I don't have a good tea weird longer than normal shaped yesterday, he's a got a little Bir, but he's that sound weird goes downstairs, makes breakfast throws the breakfast in the trash eats the plate right just bite and random stuff right gets in his car he's like well hold on it's like, because you can't sit. Yeah he's trying to full he's, got full just extend that's when he made that's what he realized realizes something's Nowright I sat down and his horn got stuck in that little handle in this car and he's Oh, what the Oh in the litle full o that still never realizing what happens gets all the way to work right. He walks on. I was like you poky he's a quick talking me like that. I'm a grown man, then he sits on his computer, tries to type he got hold dude he's like wow, I don't em big is difficult. How are you now realizing you're, a goat, my guy? Oh my gosh, and then a little Elf shows up that's when he realized something was up so over the next few years and by next fees in me next couple hundred years, yeah, that's how time worked in history. I was just like. I know some time years there was a Babylonian exile. Yeah people were celebrating Saint Nicholas Day. Parents were giving gold and eventually just like toys to their kids yeah on Saint Nicholas Day, Saint Nicholas is ne, now been moved to December twenty fifth by Luther Yeah, because he's like he's a K, we're not Catholic he's like really not Catholic, and there was all these different names given to him based on the country they're in so I was like basically translations, so you got center clots, which was Saint Nick, but in Dutch you had you Lu Pooki, which is saying nick, but in goat and then obviously at Saint Nicholas, you had Christ child. Let's see, there's another one around I hear somewhere, I don't know it doesn't matter but sit les. All these closes yeah all these other SOS things that sounded like Santa Claus until eventually, because history is just one giant game of real life. Telephone, yes, yeah before the telephone, when the telephone came out there like the wee slice er, what do they call telephone or is you know that game's got a been around? I mean? No. I don't think it came out until Christmas. What yeah, okay so go ahead, so anyways. So in eighteen, twenty three there was an author who also he wrote a couple things. It doesn't matter. Okay, he wrote a couple really famous things. It does kind of manner, but I'm not going to talk about him. What he did talk about. What in was his. I was the night before Christmas, Oh and kind of night before Crout, this story of Sana, yeah show or not. VERSO was stirring, not even a Yuki Po. You Lo Poky, okay, you look, I don't know what I said You keep pooling, and so so so this new story of a yeah. Yes, sorry, just a really weird picture of a Pretzel midsins O stop your brain stops functioning for a second because and then you followed up a sorry. I just sorry. I just saw a really weird picture of my Pretzel. Are we do we doing a podcast episode right now? This is the least professional thing I've ever heard. Let me see it is this gonna like a dude if it's just a normal Pretzel, I'm going to be really in no what it, what I'm pulling it up home? Is it an advertisement? No there. It is his a weird pressel right. I guess now weird enough for me be like hold on. Let me talk about this. For a second s, the thing is that they, okay, you got to save that. So Connor can put it in the video yeah. Whatever okay, I would you, Google imaging something and that's what popped at. How did this okay? So this? What happened? Is that your search history? Do you search? Did you get on there and you searched Carlton biceps extra, ten, Weird Pretzel, so here's what was going on? Okay, let me explain this. I don't, I would love for I do so one those ght hundred and forty five o o no work. I would mean to explaind the wine beat laying again: okay, okay, a new name for San a had a rose called Chris cringle, okay, and the reason for that was, I think, a marking campaign to sell pretzels, because cringle was another word for pretzels, so they just tried to coo, and that was what the cringles look like. was that picture I hadn't clicked on the cringle with you gain it. I was like well, we know two things about our business right. We are a Pretzel Making Company. Well, they call them males. We were kringle creators, green creators, yeah and we're not Catholic yeah. So we need a mask God, that's definitively, not Catholic! And Oh what about that? So? Where about that Uli Pooki, we can work with that. You work with that. What? If we're the same was Chris and he gave everybody pretzels crinkles. Sorry Chris Cre Chris Cringle, better than Chris Pretzel Rename our pretzels crinkles. I think that's what happened? Okay, but anyways yeah that I had T. that's how you got to Oncet page for cringle picture of us at that really weird cringle. It's a weird crinkle, okay, crazy, crinkle, crazy, cringle, anyways. All right that makes sense. Then yeah we can cut it all out. So over the next like a couple dozen years Saana, it is taking a lot of different forms. He is well keeper other they can use that for marketing, because then everyone's got a common myth year, a common legend yeah there. There are so many religions around the world that are so things more popular, big foot or Santa. I guess I say Sana, but but also yeah may move should start a pull, because you can do the thing if you're over in another country that doesn't celebrate Christmas. You still know about book foot. That's true! It's very weird to me that adults are like yeah yeah. I understand how Saint I worked, but big foots real. You know I mean: Do you not throw out thinks get off this, whatever? Okay, so so saying all these different, I'm just thinking they're common legends, yeah that people all over the world now. So then companies can start to figure out like kringle creators, cree companies- yes and go. Everyone knows about this dude exactly and so the holidays from Star is o holidays. Had Him, but everybody who would depict this Chris, cringle or SAIC character would depict him differently. It was almost always an older guy with a really big beard, but sometimes he was tall and thin. Sometimes he was short and stumpy. But honestly, if you think about it, that's all you need to identify a Santa Claus. Now is a a big white beard yeah, I kind of it a large man and a red suit. No, you don't need the red suit well back, then they didn't have the Rusu either a lot of times it was green. Sometimes it was red, but the poofy hat was always a feature and gray like and the the almost weird bathrobe thing was always a feature he gar cloak yeah. Yes, yes and he wrote a sleigh which is something sat. Nick actually did he wrote a sleigh around and he had a couple dogs that pulled him in this way. What which I guess was like a normal form of transport? Oh okay, for cars, now here just on my sleigh, which also can go, there was a pagan myth. I forgot about this: There's a Pagan myth that apparently there's a fresco somewhere where her a similar Santa like adjacent figure in a Pagan Myth. I don't know which one it was, but one of those earlier ones like the Yulie, okay, there's a myth where he gets pulled by snakes with wings in his slave okay. That was not the direction I was prepared for you to go like yeah, okay, so picture this Ol make it this Samians right here: slay brows gold and people's chimneys mixed in their socks. Every time also pulled on a sleigh. I like yeah, I'm tracking with you. I see a with this by snakes with wings, yea winged, snakes, winged, winged, winged snakes. Yes, yes, so I don't know, I can't remember which one that which myth that is, but it's some myth with this ancient God that gets pulled on this, lay okay slaves pulled by winged snakes, which is very fun. Oh Dad! That's something I I that's lither. Some people think that that's where that came from is because they were flying snakes that were dragging in a sleigh. So some people are like why eventually morphed into flying rein, deer because they were easier to stomach that yeah yeah and that's how evolution works to everybody. Now they spray from snake, you get it yeah every reindeer starts as a little tiny snake. That's why they lay a case. That's Oh! What so so so saying a over the late eighteen, hundreds, okay, look like a lot of different things. Yeah. When does he get defined? Well in the probably about the e s he starts. Showing up at shopping is not that long ago, no, not okay. In N N E D Net, he starts showing up at shopping malls with guess what flying snakes? No, no weird pretzels, no, no close, both by fiery called hen to sacrifice children. What do you? What do you talk about? All of these guesses, very, very close reindeer, no, the Salvation Army, so he was above San, a the king, the Bell Guy. This makes sense. Okay and in a e n y out, so did the Bell Gris even up until recently weren't they didn't. They have to dress like Santa Claus. I don't know if they just like Santa Art, they just dressed in red chrysos stuff. Maybe they did Jess Lic San, I don't know, I feel I guess an I feel like they said they were saying us had they now and it. Someone was like I care about this, but not that much you know so, all of a sudden they were like all right, just say: Hey. Would you stay up there for a couple hours O ring this bell? Is this a Manila? I do you remember this Alex to a the dress like an is yeah. I think this is a mafet. I don't it to made. If I I just fact, I think it is changed it over time just because they had something I were like. I like it's, not a Mandela infect to go. Oh yeah, remember when Shrek was on the SHRIK movies came out and new Mandela and hines had green ketchup. Do you remember that, and all of us are just like yeah there's, no one is run down. No one is up right now is like no. No one of this group is like you're making that up. You know, I remember them dressed as flying snakes, not a single person is not a Mandela effect if it was if it happened whatever so Saina was out there collecting money, which is you know what I er. I remember your name being TJ before and you're telling me your name. Is Him this whole time new man o that's a bad de effect right there so saint as used to be the salvation ARY people which makes sense because they've they cooped that yeah. What's ironic because, because Sana he like, you know how Sangit gives back to people, what, if you gave to US exactly yeah they're like a I yes say, nick threw money at other people. What, if you throw money at him now so Sana became the Saint Nick Guy and then what they noticed was hey. All the kids are coming to the shopping malls and the Christmas season to chin, see yeah to see Santa, and so they rely taking pictures back en they were taking their tragic fixtures in all these families are showing up and they guys a guy with the hood out there. They got a they're brain, a Cavis. They got a guy painting, the hey, we're excited to part with a new APP called wisdom, and it's all about learning from experts and mentors and that's why you're here listening to this episode is because we are your mentors.

He's like you're, actually not supposed to stand by me this long, it's freaking everybody out scan. You guys leave soon, so he so they that's how ventriloqua started to a. They were smiling for a portrait wakers right and they were just like I'm getting really good at I'm getting really good at talking and not moving my face it. Well, I'm getting really good at talking and not moving my face for these strictures yeah and the guys like. I can tell that to you. We hear what if I had a puppet, Oh yeah, what about dish so so they started bringing Sanna's inside to meet the kids Yeso. The kids could give them give Sanna a letter and say hey. This is what I want. This is what I want for Christmas and then all of a sudden things just went from here's, some guy who gives some gifts some times to Sanna. He lives in North Pole and he has an army. He brings all of your gifts, yeah he's an army of the elves and he travels the planet Yeah One night does at I'm saying for that to not even be like for that to be eighteen, ninety yeah right, then the night, the nineteen hundreds really took. That story interrupted, and I mean it's like when you know what happened, though? What is that little children are annoying and they always ask the question why and so parents were just like I yeah sand, a brings his gifts. Why? I don't know it's when he loves it? That's it brings him life. Why? Because he loves seeing kids happy. Why? I don't? I don't know: Why does he get the gift o? Why there there's a lot of em in the north of pole yeah and they all work for him? Why? I don't know, do that ENA dream Al, have a choice. I don't know doesn't seem like they're born they work in the workshop. They die all right, that's how that works for generations. A grandfather worked in this workshop. I worked in this workshop. My kids work in this workshop. There's no life outside of this workshop is Santa Unethical sure you know. Do we get paid in housing, but it's gone on housing and comte yeah how's it made of gun drops every once in a while gold falls down our chimneys. I do I we get all the floor, gold, it's it's literally chocolate gold. It's wrapper, disappointed or Carter to make more toys. What do you think happens to the way? Here's? What is what happens to the kids that we sacrifice in the first? They were re born in the North Bowl to make toys for kids in the future. Man. That's why I did so an to think we're trying to colonize the moon. We could colonize another or North Pole ad, save those elves. So in one thousand nine hundred and fifteen, where were you born? I was born in one thousand nine hundred and ninety four in the one thousand nine hundred and fifty so in one thousand, nine hundred and fifteen. What happened in one thousand, nine hundred and fifteen white rock beverages, we're trying to sell mineral water. Okay, say said: Hey, let's get Sana to sell our mineral water and they just them in a red and white suit to sell the minimal water and they said hey this work great. Let's have him, sell our Ginger Ale and now worked really good. So pepsy was like hey. We can do that too, as she was like we like you, what you did with mineral water m, so in the in the S and s they ran a an ad campaign for with SANA drinking pepsy, real yeah, Yep Yep, and then because I was a coles which beverage do you associate with saying, yea and then Coca Cola was like wait where the red brand Giros, like you I go like- were the R, the ones with cocaine? Wouldn't that be or thing so they just kind of took them and they started and they joke Santa Clo just took an a CAS and they help marketed everybody else and o yeah. We are, I mean, so you Sana, I mean and the philosophy for it, though, even back to the white rock Beverage Co, they said people don't drink our drinks in the winter. They said they're getting hot COCO and they're getting edes they're getting warm drinks like we need people that s the old, oh, they could at heatthen better than a hot loves hot ICE. I seeking with it creamthine he makes us live in houses of coming drops and we only get hot Pepsi A it's. Your Steve, pepsy frost, Pepsi Boileau, it's cauldron of Pepsi here you go they as no more peps, but if you boil it, it becomes that weird black liquid right very very day were like shoot. People are heating up our product. Let's probably get her of that. You know, don't heat it up, don't worry about yeah! I don't worry about what happens when it's hot okay, so coclea they were like in the winter time. We want people to yeah. The Co Cola was like yeah. We want that too, and they're like what's throw more money at this than everyone else and tell everyone thinks we came up with this yeah and it worked. I guy's great idea. Didn't I see a Pepsi Commercial? I will literally pay you to never say that again they said: what's Your Dollar Mountain? How met in this in Da I'll marry your daughter, we'll marry all three of your daughters, wait, say we yes, company, Colcothar Yeah, what's your daughter's name, Mary she'll be married. Tokay will pay us to do yeah yeah that will be sixty. Send Mary Coca Cola you're going to marry Mary Yeah Mary is getting married to Cocacola. This is Mr and Mrs Mary. Cocoa Gary is also Co. Collis, first name yeah, okay, so anyway, so Mary and Mary got married. A lot of people think that Sana became right because of Coca Cola, but it was actually that white rock beverage. They turned a lot of people like saying I was always wearing different clothes yeah like, but they defined it. I find it red they like. We need to pick something and they picked red and then pepsy stole it and then Cook Colestin and Co cal put more money towards it than anyone else. Isn't that the way it works and this era, the twentieth century, is the era that it really took off, for, I think a couple reasons: one capitalism and consumerism. I'm really do that's. What I'm saying is like you, you can define an image yeah. Well, I think the biggest thing was the whole holiday kind of revolved around this idea of there's a generous person, who's, giving gifts to kids, okay, and so everybody for years was like I'm going to get something nice for my kids at Christmas time right and capitalism and consumerism said by everything yeah. You have to buy this, for you go into lots of debt every year and they just heard your kids with Hot Coca Cola, wake em up with a part of Coca Cola and that's the pagan connection to mithrus yeah. Now we throw into the Caldron of Coca Cola yeah, he coucal the culture so and it just exploded. It was such an opportunity for marketers to just kind of steal this and make all these campaigns yea as for free, and they still do it and still he yeah sat as driving a Lincoln yeah, exactly yeah. So all these all these companies kind of started to dictate the mythology of this character because as they created their ad campaigns, and so he started drinking milkin cookies, he started drinking Coco Cola, all this different stuff, and then you had a film and so now, all of a sudden we started coming out and now all these new interpretations of sand a that had never existed, started coming out like an things like ten millons of Santa Claus. This way later. But so all these different, theatrical filmed thing versions of Sana yeah I started coming out and influencing the culture and, like each film, was kind of picking and chooses thing things for no previous one. So eventually, like you get to the s O s, you have this full on storyline of who San is and what he does and even miss claws and what she does and the flying snakes didn't make it any the marketing meetings yeah everyone's like. I think we need bring the snakes back and they were, like, I don't know, just give them the same names. That was the snake's names you I don't like is that the Santa Claus Series Turned Jack Frost it in the even the not clamation, but the the Te Alon, no animated. What what is t Rudolfi Reindeer and like frost this to me that this Colinton you got it Ros or be those were not clamation. Those reclamation is different. Yeah, those were a hundred percent clams were not claiming anyway, they make Jack Frost like ould like a villain and all this stuff. You know anyway yeah. So all those guys to kind of dictate the story of USANA was sure, and consumerism really played one of the biggest parts. And now it's to the thing where it's like it's kind of its own monster like it did. It did kind of form in really two parts to half part, Pagan, Pagane, sure, half part. It's pretty wild to me how quick things can like in the I s, the Salvation Army picks up this Santa Claus, character, yeah and then now we have full back stories yeah. I know I mean it wasn't really just that one thing like over so yeah yeah, but I'm saying like over so much time and then for it to accelerate the way that it did yeah, and I mean that is honestly that that is kind of as American y. You know I mean that solution right there that yeah, that's the twenty century, yeah like Er everything did that accelerated so fast, and especially with consumerism and marketing and capitalism like things just moved, really quick, because the quicker you could define something as something marketable quicker. You make a lot of money off of it. Yeah things move so fast like technology and coved cases, and all that you know, like things, just accelerate cars. What we're already on cars? Three cars for a series so fast I feel like Jesterday, the first one came out so is on honestly, though cars as a series. They took their time with cars. To now cars three was just garbage, but between cars want and cars to there was a good six year gap there. You know they didn't pump one out the next year, yeah yeah, like Trolls, the movie anyway go ahead, so yeah, so so Sana became this became what he is today. He became a part of the the MAS thanksgiving, the parade to usher in the Christmas season, a guy actually just asked if he could do that, he was like he could. I just so like San a an I be Santa Claus, yeah, that's what they were like who he ahes like. Well, you Le Poky, it's kind of hard to explain: I'm not going to do the whole furnace thing, but, like it'd, be fun yeah. Have you guys ever seen Cop Pepsi before you guys, like? Let's talk about it over some hot Pepsi, so anyways WHO's got hot pepsy, and now it's I mean here's the thing you hear a lot of people talk about Sana and Christmas and honestly a lot of different things, and so oh that's pagan. That's too Pagane for me, no that's to Pagani for us, here's the thing it's also a Christian like, and it's also all these other things there's also Coca Cola. Yeah. It's also cocacola. It's also, it's also the Salvation Army. It's also admiel water yeah. It's all these different things. Nobody owns Santa Claus, yeah all these different things, kind of melted together and got nixt what it is. Now this isn't you? Oh my gosh. If you really look at yourself deep down, there's a Santa Claus inside you in all of us. You know some metaphorically orphaned person who, as a rich inheritance, that you're supposed to give to other people around you so take that joy. You got inside stuffining your neighbors socks, I tryin so hard definite. I was trying an I. my point is a lot of people. I pintin can't celebrate Christmas because I got pagan backgrounds. We can't sell it Halloween because got pagan background. Here's the thing. Let me tell you the way church services are organized today is Pagani literally the Constantine borrowed everything a mad tims, getting right now about everything we pegasius. Okay, he's my he's. My thing parents are like you can't watch Harry Potter. It's pay could be yeah well. So I lord of the ring, is Your Coca Cola Ma? Have you ever heeded the thing yeah? You Know Chris Christian MOMS love to harp on, saying it, but they're jugging diet, coke, here's, the thing my point is really just yeah, it's Pagane, but it's also a Christian. It's also a lot of other things you can't and and at the end of the day, it's you you get to celebrating some people still think he's a goat like you can decide when you want to believe it. Sangeet ng Christmas is not celebrating a Pagan holiday like you're deciding how you're celebrating that what you want to do with that. You can't accidentally be a pagan. You can accidentally worship the devil. Interesting, it's not it's, not an accident, a like! Oh! I don't want to do that because I don't want to you're thinking, Jus, the heart posture and the intention matter. Yes, so it's with the same is true. You can't just do nice things, but if you're doing it to be seen as a nice person, that's not a nice thing, yeah yeah wow, look at you! You Really Youth Pastor! This whole episode, didn't you yeah. I did you really turned it into a guy. What's inside matters and what's inside you is a Santa Claus? Well, anyways, there's a lot of controversy about saying a because it's lying to your kids, their whole life and then there's actually a lot yeah, there's a lot of parents who don't do it because they like well. If they find out, we lied about Santa and the Easter Bunny they're going to think we lied about Jesus yeah, there's also a lot of parents who are like well if well, if I'm going to hi all these presents, I want credit for it. Yeah the other parents who are like listen, let's just get in the car right now we're going to drive down to Georgia and have a fiddle off with Santa and like no it's. I think it's. I think it's it's sating, but you can't prove it's not. Things are done. That night is a production of space.

12-14-21

Episode Transcription

Made for robots, by robots. Only read if you're weird.

Hey Man, what's up, Oh, have you ever heard of? Oh, oh, I don't know. Okay, have I ever heard what epistemology come on dude? This is what you want to do, what his tomology have you ever heard of it? What is it a sounds? Dumb, a Piso Ology, it's well! I want to know what do you o? What is it? What is it? What is it o histology us? I tell you, I'm a I'm a pissed off that you did this for our hundred. No, this makes sense. This makes sense. Is it the study of a heart? I don't know it's a study of one hundred. What is a pistole? No, I think it I figured. It makes sense for a hundred episode because of pistol is the study of knowledge and how the nature of no one is to dictionary, defines a Pisto Ology as the study of what is this a freaking middle school presentation? No, okay! So here's the thing epistemology we're really doing it about a pistole. Yes, okay! Oh my Gosh! So pistol. It's an interesting thing, because, basically the idea is it's. Your topics have just been so cerebral. What do you mean just like Satan, we're gonna go through this satis store Santa Claus, they're, not fun any more Sana Claus. Santa Crass is next week's episode. We have not done that yet! Yes, we have. This is, are you sure a hundred percent well next week done it next week to learn about sit? How do you not you your Satan, you next week, her years Santa I'm saying is like it's all just like you know in the fourth century, what you want to do. Another L is tomology yeah, okay. Well, I will do some fun stuff. I find another one. This will be fun: Okay, Jones, Sol and MI. The are the gifts that is God. I learned about learning for a bit o a power for no rich. What, if I'm just like mad up in your head, it's possible- I don't think we're real may be. This is no to this is real. This is real. Can you justify t, prove it things so use the thing. PISMA is interesting because, basically it's where a lot of skepticism comes from He. This is the stuff you want to go at, you ill be like well. Actually, this is where the conspirations- no it's nothin no o is like skepticism is actually the opposite of like learning stuff, it's all just like critical race theory. No, not talking about like do she a modern conspiracy, theory sceptics. We saying just teach me about like weird happenings all right now, a L. I do a lot about alien, so why you can't you can't really a you about weird stuff and then leave out most of the weird stuff on those weird things all weird things I tete so many things and I'm like. Please teach you about this and you're like now. You know the showeth I got. I really want to teach you about and it's a Pisto ology have you ever heard of it. So basically, and it's just like Bro, what are we? The freaking encyclopedia? Are I'm trying to get us an NPR sponsorship, I'm not by being more rings. Do so my things interesting, here's a thing! Here's all right! Let me let me tell you the thing I want to know. It's interesting. Yeah: here's where this ties in I think this Tisingol, because I started so start like Georgia guide stones, Bob Ross Block bluster. That was cool, the three identical strangers. You know just so much stuff, and then you jus go you just gotten like Satan. I've done to two of these now. If it just makes sense, this makes it. Let me tell you why this makes sense. Okay, we're gonna, have a fight on the podcast for a hundred. The peso this makes is honestly, is a tists pretty much it. I don't know if you picked up on this, but let me tell you about things on and last night, I don't know he's the thing we live in the information age. It was ironic about the information age is all the passion all the informations aged and all of us are so stupid, we're all just so so dumb. That's absolutely true and everybody talks about how they know they act at the the expert on everything and when they really they know nothing. They're, the expert on nothing and one of the most interesting things from my degree will use my degree for a second hare. Are you going to talk about how I ever won how the disappearance of experts like people resent experts? I think you think yeah pace the same way of like sixteen year olds. Next, eighteen year olds go off as freshman in college and they start arguing with their professor and it's like you're, going to argue with the person who's got. You know your entire life's worth of studying in that specific topic, because you read something on the Internet. I think that's the thing is: Is People think that they know a ton and that I honestly that was the most valuable thing I think I learned in college, like interaction classroom was the second you think you know a lot about something. Is the moment you really don't to you that long to realize you're stupid. I knew day one. You know that was the most valuable thing you learned of angel was that people think you're dumb. My professor. It took nineteen papers of my professor riding on both your tongue. You should start with Google epistemology start there. He literally said Stop Paying, for this is not worth it for you. You were dumb out all my papers, it just the night and artist was rough on both of us. That's who she wrote in mind too. That is aggressive, so here's the thing our show is really kind of a play on that, because I don't know what I'm talking about ever play on that. Come I don't know. What I'm ever talking about show really is is a definition. Inert Age, you know the information age when you really boil it down is just things I learned last night. This is something I research on the Internet last night and I'm acting like I'm an expert on that's what we do. Every single episode. Okay, it's a joke. It's a comedy, podcast. The things you've learned on this show are not valuable. You don't know what that yeah, because I don't yeah about them and so a pistol is the study of is really. The question is asked the question: How do you know the things that you know and when you think about that? What are you in college pretty quickly learning about what learning? No, I already asked that yeah yeah. No, I'm learning about learning what just learning about what are you learning about it? Oh, that I don't learn a lot earning about learning. I'm learning that I haven't learned to hold on a second. If a pistole is learning about learning, yeah and I'm right now, learning about a pistole. Am I learning about learning about learning age? But yes, okay, Mrs I'm, Minister, now there you go great, teach me Oh master of stuff, so it's asking the question: How do we actually know that for your hand or your knock over one of our wise men, the a knock over yeah? Okay? So one of our epistemologists? The question is: How do you know the things that you actually know yeah and you realize pretty quick if you really dig into that you like crap, I don't know a single thing. So let's do that. You don't know yeah it's based on knowledge of someone else. Well, that's just where it begins. Oh, no! So there's a there's! There's really these three kind of pillars of a pistol y. We have to set up to begin with their belief, truth and justification, and they sound a lot like what their names are, because it's a good name believe is just the things that you believe in belief. Yes, so a lot of times. These are religious police, political beliefs. Things like that truth is something that can be believed in, but is also true. So these are facts. Actual factual and truth doesn't care about your feelings. I've heard I've heard yeah and then the last one this guy justification also Mur is the short hand name for I got it. So we got Joe saw and Mur. Those are the gifts, a Jesus God very in practical. You know this is quality contort home, so so justification justification are things that prove that the things that are true are worthy of belief, so this is reasoningi kind, O get more evidence: okay, okay, okay, okay, so, for example, these have to do a dance all together, yeah for you to know, you know something. So here's a really famous example say you were to say: I believe it's raining outside. I believe it's raining outside that doesn't mean that it is or a true that doesn't mean it's truth. No, the only thing you have to justify that truth by walking outside and getting wet yeah, but here's the thing here's what's interesting about this is, if you believe it and you're. Confident in that belief and you walk outside and it was raining. It was a true belief, but you didn't believe that, because you had a justification, you believe that for really no reason you were just confident in that belief and that it has happened to be riches happened to be true. Yes, it's like another example is, if you, if you believe it's new, if you believe it's awaken, are falling over over here and you believe it's to Eco, we believe it tol ocock, you walk into a room, you see a clock that is on twelve o'clock. It was a true belief, but you believe that before you had justification for it, okay but say you believed that you walked into the room. It was two o'clock. Well, you walked in the room. You said, I believe it's it's twelve o'clock. You saw the clock. That said it was twelve o'clock. He said. Okay, now I have a justified belief and it's true. I have what's a justified. True belief is the way they phrase it in epistemology. You could still that justification, though, might not be true, because that clock could be stuck on the number twelve and you just happen to see me. You walk in the rooms began like I believe, it's twelve, you know you're walking and you go. I believe it's to thirty and that clock just happens to say on thirty, the bat puts out of battery someone's like well. Actually it's four o'clock yeah so so truth does not reconcile with your justification or belief. Yeah it you so belief. Justification could both agree and truth, not truth, but truth and belief can't agree without justification. No because you because it could be rinning outside. You could be confident in your belief that it's raining and it could actually be raining, but you don't have the justification, so you could have a true belief. That's not justified! You could have a justification for a true for truth that you don't believe you can also have a belief. That is not true and it's not justified and you could also have a belief that is justified, but isn't true. So just like the clock, that's on noon, it's justified because you see a clock. This is as new, but it's two thirty. So that's a belief, that's justified, but it's false, okay, and so basically what what you're looking at that's called the gettier problem. It's all these justifications and the beliefs and the truth. It forms this ven diagram where you need it to overlap and be true, keep it that back er but knock it over. You need the truth and the justification to over that, but you also need your beliefs to overlap that and that's how you get knowledge when you have that happy little center in the medium, you have the knowledge knowledge. Yes, yes, knowledge is when you have a justifies Lou. That is true. Oh you have power and that's how you get power and power is money and money is power and money is greed. What are you learning to college power? I learned about learning for a bit. It made me powerful and now I'm rich talking to the clerk of the gas teachin about it. Can I buy some muscle I walking. I believe it is two D and thirty, and I have twenty on pum seven, please the guys, like it's noon, do you have desiccation for that belief? Oh Gosh. I that's exactly how Le Talk, though man. I bet those college classes all right night mayor to be in Oh yeah, they're, exhausting! Oh! I do you have a justification for that belief. There's a lot of philosophers who have come up with scenarios. The clock was one: The rain was one. The get of your problem with the Vin Diagram is a way to think through that. So there's a lot of problems and scenarios and ways to exemplify this idea. Sure that have come out over the Millennia, but the the basic concept is this. Is You can believe in something and be confident you believe in it? You can honestly have proof in your belief in it, but that doesn't make it true, and so I pretty common honestly think about everything you know right now take a moment close your eyes, breathe them through your nose. Okay, bree, that through your mouth and think about all the things you know every single thing you know think about it. Do you know that you know that thing m? Do you know the answer? Is No sorry sorry, so I guess I don't know that yeah, you don't know. I sure thought I did at all the things you know you don't know those things, because here's the thing why I believe that I do it doesn't matter. If people ave you do you can be yeah. I heard that's not true. So so I believe that I do know everything yeah, that's a Bo, and that is a truth. No, no! It's not do you have a just ICATION for that boom fiddle it off. You just learn a pistole, that's what they named it that because it pisses people off when you argue about it, have you or a love one been diagnosed with too many advertisements during the till in podcast? Have we got good news for you, our patrons, enjoy, add free experience and to get early access to content behind the scene, stuff, exclusive merchandise and access to a private discord channel? We we all are in it our producers and the hosts. So if you'd like to be a patron today and solve that problem, why don't you text till in to six D, Sixty eight six, six! So here's the thing: Let's pick something an Arnica. Okay, do you believe the AASE? So you believe in an article. That's great blue man, Orgar, that's okay, good to know where you're at good. To that here's! The thing why? Because I've been there but yeah, I been shut up yeah. I went on a mitre and the shot snow people yeah well to the elms. That episode doesn't come out yet you're called a thing. That's happened yet that's to make sense of yeah. I knew that Oh yeah that'll be just I know when the episodes come out, I'm justified, so I do believe in in Arica yeah. Why? What's your just if Crepin the believe on a mission trip when living water fellowship church is a summer trip which is emertine yeah, I like it's too hot and humid in Missouri. Let's go go verita dry, so I went there right. This is my Justicie Yeah Southwest Airlines Southwest Yeah Bailey leaves the US but also anarchy, okay, Great Yep and didn't land open the door you out took off our clip on ties and threw us out. That was a DB cooper call. I threw us into the Antartic to the anarctic with all your money, so here's the thing. Well, that could be true. You could have went to an Arica, but I didn't did you know his lie? Sometimes sometimes I do this thing where I just make stuff up to see. If you could believe it, I'm gonna tell you, I didn't believe it A. I was Gongor saying that, because I've, never, I don't have tangible justification for be. You have a testimony. You have someone else's testament, sure and the reality of it is you O, O o landing? Do I believe in the moon kind of because here's the thing honestly you it doesn't have to be something like the moon landing. You can go down to pretty much everything. You know you were taught by someone, and so you were given their test. Okay, I'll tell you why I believe in the Arica, then, is because I believe in maps. The reason I believe in maps is that so far, the places that I have gone to on a map have been correct. Yeah. So that's fair, that's fair! The issue with that is it is, I don't know we're talking on to somebody. I don't even believe in planes on so the issue is loolie as real. The issue is so you have evidence that maps are real, so you can trust the testimony of the map, which means okay. I I'll trust the testimony of the entire map. You don't have evidence that the entire map is sure you just have evidence of the map that I mean we, you wreak all that stuff. Do I mean, like all that's the point of the pesonal Gy, is saying that until you experience something- and you have the evidence yourself, so your experience is the definition of reality. So I have disagreements on that. Not Necessarily so here's the thing. If you have testimony from someone who is able to show their evidence and give like a clear proof of their evidence, then you you serve to believe there. You deserve to believe their testimony. So then I believe the experience of people who have been to an AMICA- yes, yeah, that's fair, but the reality is is most of us. The testimonies were receiving is not first hand testimony it's not even second or third, it's like way down the line of this person went went and then they wrote about it or they talked about it or whatever, and someone wrote about it and that ended up our text. Books are taught our teachers who taught us you're down a telephone line of experiencers or really testimony or or testimonial Ers Testament, testament and the experiencer. So does that? Are you suggesting then, that the knowledge is not worth believing any more? No, I don't know anyone who's falling off a ten story building, but I know that that would kill you well do you, though, the question of a pistole is: Do you know, because you have evidence that every time that you've had testimony of that happening, it's resulted in death sure, but could it be you you don't have a way to prove that that's a guarantee. You just have a way to prove that at least every time that you have evidence of that. It's repeated that way. Theoretically, that could be a part of a pattern where a hundred times someone dies, but a hundred on the hundred first time. Every time someone survives you can't say so what a pistol Gy is doing is saying at the end of the day, you can have a lot of evidence for something, and you can say you can't believe anything unless you've experienced it. No, no, not exactly it's saying that. It's saying that it's very, very, very tough to know you know something for sure is kind of is what they're saying they're saying you can know that happens most of the time, or that happens a lot or that's happened every time you see. You believe that I like being around you, I can say Maga, true he's what I could say. Yes, I can say I know that at least eighty percent of the time you seem to enjoy when we're hanging out seem to enjoy it, but that doesn't mean yeah that you do a hundred percent the time I'm acting, but yeah there's twenty percent of the time where you don't seem to enjoy it, it's a pretty good. That's that's fair! That's accurate one of five makes sense. All the pesonal is saying is your evidence. Is it's very hard to find testimony or evidence that can conclusively prove a hundred percent of the time that you know what's going on in that situation? It could say you have evidence that it happened this way before you have evidence that so times it goes this way, but you is very, very tough to say this is how it's always affinitive, yeah, okay, and that's why science so many times will when experimenting, try to make something clear and repeatable, because you want to say okay, this continues to happen. It wasn't just a one off, it wasn't just a fluke. It wasn't just that one time it happens. Often, okay, the scientific method is age, but the epistolis would say well what? If what? If that was you just did it enough times for it to repeat? If you did it one more time, you don't know that that's going to you're going to get the same, resoling yeah, that's just poking holes and you could pull calls and stuff all day. Yeah I mean is appointed. It is poking holes and stuff, though kind of I mean yeah, it's basically say you could always do that. It's basically it's skepticism. So it's saying you it's very, very, very hard for you to clusive say I know that what I know is true: What is it hard? It's very, very T. is it difficult? Yes, you don't know that. That's fair, pretty easy for me to do. I hate you. You are, but it's but you're a but is accurate. Let's look it. Let's look at y what you're doing right now, it's good, but I don't like it here. You brought this up a second ago. I want to dive into it Gosh. This is called the cart, Cartesian, evil, demon problem, it's a theory from Rene de Cart. That's one of my favorites because you mentioned you said: Renee Cart! Yes yeah! I thought that was is a term in a restaurant. Whenever you just want the entree now can I have the fish run at a card? Pasaen, it's actually a worship artist. Oh I've actually got a since yet a car yeah. No, he he talked about you just you said you only know something's true. If you experience it and what he said is no you don't because what he says he said you can't prove that your experiences are true either, and so he created this theory hold on what so he created this theory. He said we can't prove that what we're experiencing is universal, yes, but also more than that, just like you real. He said he said I could be, and he created this ridiculous scenario o not because he believed it, but to ilustrate point he said I could be strapped into a chair being fed at this experience by demon. Who is able to give me all these sensations. Give me all these perceptions and make my mind believe I'm in this world that I'm not when the reality is totally different, yeah and then someone out of the s like this, a really good movie, that's actually exactly when they got the Atamor Sense, and so I r the car was like you know I could be somewhere ordering a entree of chicken Renata, cart right and I in my head I could be like this is what chicken tastes like yeah. I don't know that yeah, that's exactly what I said. You can't trust. Anything is what the philosophy is. Yeah he's like he's. A your experience is a could be all entirely wrong everything you know sure everything experience could be wrong. So then you can't know for sure that any of this is reality. You just know that it's your experience currently of reality, which doesn't as true what, if I'm just like, made up in your head, it's possible that just blew our mind. Here's the thing! If you did really deep into this yeah, it becomes kind of tough to say you know anything because you either have to try, drive yourself insane doing that thing. T YEAH! You either had to trust somebody before you and be like. I trust that what you taught me is true right or what you you should do, or your wisdom is or you have to go experience, everything which is what a people in our culture are trying to do and both of those both of those are tough because one, if you trust everybody who teaches you someone's going to have it wrong, you sure learn some stuff that are wrong yeah and then also, if you go try to experience everything you can go crazy because you can't, and if you're the cart you could Bo if you're the car, but you o Ben Saying I can't trust my even if you experience it, you still could be wrong yeah, he saying even if you yeah o you cunjee already got enough anxiety. We don't got to put this one okay, but this is what social media saying is that, like? How do you know you know you don't know what the only way to to know is to experience everything yeah. You know I got to try everything exactly. It's gonna, try everything yeah and it's like. We want to try everything. Actually, you don't you don't and I think that's a we live in a very sceptical culture. That says I don't want to trust anything. Anybody says I don't want to trust authority on. Did you read teacher? What was the example? Where was that the island that the when the tsunami happened? They only had like seven deaths? I er, which book that was in. Do you now talk about very analogy her even an analogy with a real thing of like this unami killed thousands of people yeah, but on this one island in only killed seven, because you know they've passed down this wisdom for for generations, even though they've never had they haven't had a sunamite re. There was an earthquake yeah and they've been told this children's story, their entire lives that, when the ground shakes retreat to the mountains yeah you know and when the tide recedes go to the mountains yeah and they only lost seven people, because they, because, even though they had never experienced it before they had wisdom that they learned from yeah that they went to the mountains and they all sort out survived interesting, very interesting yeah. I think that's. I think that is a very good illustration for this, because we have a tendency in our culture today be skeptical of anybody who came before us. Anybody in kind of any kind of leadership, because the ACIS is what's leading right now is that enough things have panned out to be, and this will in maybe this is maybe our podcast helps feel. That is the number of stuff that you go. Oh, that's not what it seemed to be, or Oh, that was that turned out to be malicious yeah. You know then does feed those like well do we know for sure yeah exactly and I mean and that's the, but I don't think that people who ask questions like that should be the ones leading because that's what it that's where I'm getting annoyed is it's like just people all the guys do to be a thinker or to be intellectual, is Hube like well what? If what? If this is whatever you know, and it's said well, we should elect that guy then you're like no do not put that person in charge at all, and I think that will make that guy. Your Pastor, Hey, have you er heard of till in podcast March. That's right: We've got a full march store of tilling branded, teas mugs stickers, hoodies a lot more and we put out new designs with every episode, but those are only available for a limited time. So you got to get those wither hot text, tillandsia eight six, six to get access to our exclusive merchandise. I think that's where a pistol gy differs from like modern scepticism, cause monospecific, asking questions and really poking. I really was elegy is saying: can you justify the beliefs, and can you prove your belief? A true, and a lot of them is a like trusting this map. I can prove that this part of the map is true, which gives me reason to believe this part of the map. Exactly and a lot of seers of pisonous will go really far down that gravital to try to find an issue in it because they're going really far down that rabbit hold to try to see. Is this justified and I actually believe this, but you can drive yourself mad doing that, because, at the end of the day, you're always going to find a whole way. You're like well, I don't know for sure sure in that spot and so at the end of the day, at the end of the day, Howat might not be real, then the where it comes down to there has to come a moment where you say your choice to either keep trying to follow it and figure out the reason or just order to say I haven't the most disgusting fatty food. You can cause. You draw your body because you're not real. Nothing to do matters. You don't exist, eat whatever you want. Speaking of this week's host is our host art. This week's sponsor is now it's not but tribe, kitchen, yeah real mark. There got a brunch thing: it's like the Nashville, hot chicken business and Gravy, and it's I mean, got to be four or five sand, calories right, yeah, so yeah. How do you know because I've justified that experience? I believe that it's good. I have tasted that it's good. Therefore, it is good. Now there could be a demon. They're could be she a convention me that it's bit this is really good chicken. Is it? No that's true, he's just shoving a rod chicken down and for whatever reason, the de Iratis as well as that. What I think is we, I think, a lot there's no way that is all made up in my head, because I would looking around and I go there's no way. I would put myself through this stuff. That's what Covin really brought me to was like in my head. It's like if this is all in my head. I D have a better life. I'm serious! You know what have done better. You know maybe we're all in cones. Had I don't know they were all in like bill gate. They Elon Musk said, I don't know, maybe we're all in those people's had yeah. You know, but there's no way, we're in mind. There's no way, there's no way that you listening in your two thousand and three Chrysler minivan driving right now, your mourning commute to a job that you don't like. I really hope I'm re to real fell due. I hope somebody's listening right now and they're like what I'm gonna walk in the OFFICII quit they walk in with tears in their eyes, because they've cried in the parking lot they're like, I don't think, I'm real real. This is real. I'm going back to my cristine have to break up it's like. Oh, are you going to try to pull like this whole? God tell me to break up with you, it's like! No, I don't think we're real. What do you mean? This is. No though this is real is real, but can you justify that prove it, but it really is it's. This is where a lot of a lot of these I mean Sert comes from this because you have art, you have a history of in the reality, people who are at the top of the total pol get to decide what's TAT, and sometimes they leave out some stuff yeah and it's important to go back and learn what that stuff is. That has like so I mean there's not the same thing is happening with theology, yet tons of stuff, that's like, and I think, there's value in questioning and looking at the things that you've learned sure, especially when it comes to a world view yeah, you know, but does that mean that we have to to use a word deconstruct every part of our being yeah yeah? No, so no, I think I think, my honestly, why I wanted to bring this up. Is it is such a? I think it really is an issue today where people don't trust a lot of people, but at the same time they put too much trust in a lot of other things. Just because you watch a youtube videos or read opposed on social or honestly, with with everything we learned here, the things you learn in school there's a chance that those things are not justified. Tug beliefs, yeah, you might believe them, but just because one thing you- and this is the other thing too- is that just because this system taught you something that wasn't true doesn't mean everything the system tie. You wasn't true, absolutely true, yeah someone, one person could have done something really bad or said something that was false, that doesn't it's like throwing the demon out with the chair, you're strapped to you know, and that's I. It doesn't disqualify everything they said, but at the same time, just because you listen to one thing that talked about something doesn't mean you're an expert on it and it was it all the podcast and less it's our podcast, in which case you're, not even real, so you're made up in Tim's head really to me this by cast a big part of this podcast. Is I your h? Why is this show not more successful, but I I I a hundred episodes in and like we have with decent listener ship, but it's like Bro. You could do something about you make this way home some Sarah tone into our show. It's because the devil is right again and he wants it to be like yeah. It's just don't say the Devil's writing or shows like that. Like that yeah we give them our souls in a solo cup a few episodes ago. He also stole the end of your sentences. So all right, so that's why you brought it up was like listen. Things are fine yeah like I think I think the point is, if you're going to believe in a time timannee with. I think the point is it's just that you know it's a great episode. I think the point is, if you believe something more, if you, if you watch a video or a podcast or whatever, like sure the person, you listen to, might know what they're talking about, but don't take their word for it like if you want to really believe in that, go find another testimony or find other evidence justify that belief before you go out saying. Oh, this is the way the world works. That's a basically crazy conspiracy. It's the same thing of like this is a good example. Yeah all right give it to me. I know where you're calling you don't know where I'm going. I think I do if you're bind someone Amazon and it's got five star reviews, but it's only got three people who said that I don't trust those refuse, but if it's got four point, eight star reviews- and it's got like thirteen thousand reviews- trust it. I trust that was actually a really good example. That's a great example, because there's a bigger sample size yeah so, but unfortunately, right now were I why that guy, who had almost mice had a ton of them? You know I need more, an more mice, I need more. I need to prove it and it's a show. It's repeatable, I mean yeah yeah, that's true, that's fair! Your sample size is important. Yeah. You could have ended like that. I think the point is take a bigger sample size take a bigger sample size, but even more than that, it's if you, Google, something you can find. Whatever answer you want. That's true. That's true that, just mostly because Tim spins his day, writing like ten articles about the same thing with just different vehicles. You know you can find any of in Yo was yeah. You know every single tilling subject: There's a a very on Amoros lying Lani Zamor is correct lines on more was lying, but that doesn't mean every alien stories were on bally and thor is the close of the show. You know, there's a you can find an opinion on everything everything find what you want to believe and you can google it and you're going to find some high sport. I see we stop doing that. It's making everybody really mad on twitter. That's why everyone's blocking last proriger yeah anyways, she's wisdom, you some wisdom, you some wisdom, realize you probably don't know as much as you know, and that's: okay, it's okay to believe in something, even if you can't prove it, but don't be weird about it unless you have to. Unless you have your weird about it, also you're not real anyway. This has been a hundred episodes of our show.

How do you know what you know? That’s a weird question. It’s an important question to ask, though, and that question is at the heart of epistemology. Briefly, epistemology is a philosophical school of thought that seeks to understand knowledge. At its core, the hope is to determine if evidence can justify our beliefs. The system of thought has birthed … Read More

Mouse Utopia Experiment – This Experiment Tested Dangerous Behavioral Sink

12-07-21

Episode Transcription

Made by robots, for robots. Only read if you're weird.

Hey ma'am: what's up, have you ever heard of the mouse utopia? Experiment I don't want to. I don't even want to mount utopia experience or no. This is that game that we used to play as kids. What is a board game? Oh, what is that yeah master AP Mas Yeah, that's fun cause you have mastero. Now, Oh dude, you had to send a Lang and then, oh sorry, I forgot that my parents were richer than yours e. They weren't we were poor. We made some bad financial decisions and my my parents went into debt over mouse draft dude. My Fares, like my kid wants to mouse. Your parents are wise, you're like wait. You your parents are like you, can either go to college or get mouse tron after my parents are like you can do both buddy yea and they paid the price for it. You know your parents sat down and they were like they're like okay, we're going to the bank. Today they got there and like Hey, can we take it a personal loan and they're like yeah? What's the reason you know that port persons reasons there are er to the bank, why I need the money? Do you have to tell a bank while you need the money Cato a personal, long hell, but sometimes they make conferie they're like so. What's this for my own business? How about that Jerry? I'm laundering money in open a KFC yeah about with two and Dollar Watch me, Jerry, yeah, never say them legally. You have to save mine you're. Listening to this is the most Baga thing about you, Ansai cannibals. There are people at Hetter, he said you're a rap former. Now I was the person in the Mickey suit. He would force me to eat all of the other MASCO things. So the mouse utopia experiment not experience. I say experience wishes, which is actually the new the mouse utopia experience is the new section of Walt Disney world, BUT MOUSE UTOPIA, experiment is, is similar to the Stanford prison experiment actually kind of have. We talked about the same for spiting we have what it is kind of similar. So basically it was this guy. He was an ethologists is a what thologist. If there's an thologist ethnologist, is it thologist and ethologists which ethics no o? It's often confused with ethics is kind of similar, though it's a study of animal behavior, usually with like it's focusing on what how their behavior adapts and Circumcirca certain circumstances, okay, and so he did this. He crashed this experiment. This guy named John B Calhoun in the late and early S, and it began so there's kind of two iterations of the experiment will start with the first one. Well, actually, let's talk about the? Why I watch a Ted TOG about? What's your, why you know who was John B Calhoun's, which I hate, how you said: Calhoun Calhoun, what was this Liao as a come on Calhoun yeah, but you go calhoun. He told me. I jus told me before this I said: Do you think we need to damp in the corners in this room and put like some sand trement on there he's like wow he's like that? Only really matters for base, and I was like well, I lower my voice so that wasn't at yeah. Also, I I don't think pouring water on it's going to help that damp corner right. Alice goes in your next time and we sethos spraying aping the stamping in the room, a really a mess up or outlet less echoes. Oh Yeah. This is bad yeah. Our Electric is we're going to burn up any moment. It's pretty crazy, so hey alex if we ever died, while we're courting an episode, rely lysia the moment before we die yeah. No, no do it like those, never mind so calonnes in the. Why of what you're thinking? So he does experiments it's the s. A couple things are happening yeah over the past fifty years the world has just gone insane, so anybody who's alive. Then they saw two world wars, the Great Depression, the that dust bowl and his name and stuff. That does the only the biggest thing. The biggest thing that relates to this is the the roaring twenties were just Laden in sin. They saw the sin of the century, and so there was this big perception that the world was becoming a much more sinful place, because there's all this like pain and bloodshed and just promiscuity, promiscuity, promiscuo yeah, prop you think, that's where prom got its name, I think is they mean pro? You think they named Prom after a promise duty because they were like. I mean they knew what was going to happen and, like that's call problem. Let's move on from that cow Tsoo from them. I think that's where I came from Pan Penning, so you stress me out o there's this great move of people who were just like the world is going mad and everybody's awful yeah, which I think happens in every generation all the time. So there was this kind of impending feeling of societal collapse. Oh yeah, and coinciding with this was also this feeling of urbanization has reached this fever pitch yeah has never happened before all of a sudden cities are getting overcrowded, and at this time it's still the freeway and the sprawl is still a very new thing for cities, and so it's starting to get to point where set everyone's got cars and stuff. They do have cars, but it's still early enough in that to where there's not the sprawl, so they're running out of space in the cities, because people a lot of people can't commute yet because there's no free way the free ways as Tom still very young and a lot of cities, don't have it yet, and so there's this kind of impending feeling of were running out of space. We have more people than we have room for, and the people on the edge of town are looking at the fields across the street and they're like all that space, they turn around the people in the middle. So I feel it every time I like go through like Wyoming and people like running a space, and I go well. No, you just don't want to live in Wyoming you just don't like the places where they're speaking yeah you don't like the place that there's room for you. You want to be pleased with everybody. What was it he want, like so they're, panicking a little bit so there's kind of these two two big pressures, so I mean you know that London Yeah did you know that London is the is very close to the same square miles as what are you that totally effect, I told you. No, I wat tell you a fact that me and Reagan discovered. I told you this fact on the podcast in the hot tub that London, yes, is go ahead and tell me the fact that you think I'm going to share London is about the same amount of square miles. A spring film Missouri was no, I was gonna say all right. I was gonna say it's about the same squires Wichita, Kansas, all right. How about that? You not tell me that I I cant her par. It me, which one of US pays you neither of US okay. So how about you don't listen to either of us. You don't take orders from us all right, London, three thousand three hundred square miles, the Springfield metro includes so that includes probably Mount Vernon Branson so the whole anyway. All that includes Nixa Republic, definitely Ozark, definitely but anyways three thousand square miles. So so fifteen million people crammed there could live in that area. All Right! Listen! If you told me that in that episode, Here's I guarantee here's. What happened then all right, because because Reagan told me that more recently, I think yeah because she probably heard it in that as she heard of that episode and then she's been telling you next, she got from our show and you have a neat. You know what it's pretty interesting. She told me about this. You go on to believe this. She told her this guy that jumped out of a plane once stole all this money right. It was like C bd or something like C. my deeper CB duper. That's what I think all those! That's why everyone's like CBS, you know, isn't that what it is yeah. He started an oil company, big big fuel tycoon yeah anyway, so apparently anyway, I'm saying so they they are solution to the running out of space thing was to go up well kind of. I think London, one of the big things with London is, it's always been here, and so it's been around for much longer, and so they didn't have for much of its history. I lie that is in the same time as Jesus I mean. I think there might have been a talent there. I don't think T it was a big deal that was that was. I thought I had when I was out there in sequoia fuck. You know I just become a nature guy, you know, yeah, you know just become one of those dudes think about getting a super room. Actually was it well. It was settled depending on where you date the birth of Jesus, about twenty to thirty years after Jesus. So pretty close, so it's a really old town, and so they didn't have the opportunity to sprawl becaus. They didn't have cars o Spring Fi Missouri around, as i Jesus time fill, was actually founded. Twenty years before, Jesus Wow, depending on where you put Susie, you put Jesus and actually what's crazy, I er stares was there first labors La Orchas, not there a hundred, yes, Luisa, cork headed out on their adventure, and they were like, if only some one could throw some rolls, that's how it started their throwing rolls into the river to Lisan Clark. They were just bored, throwing their food away for their journey like men. Hopefully this journey doesn't take a long time because we wait lose our co o the food away. I was saying that lamberts was on the banks of the river, throwing Lewis and Clark roles, and you were going with their they're. Just like we're so bored, let's throw our food overboard here, you're on a road trip. You know you get that snack bag right and then you're just trying you like. I Bet I can catch this fun in on the antenna of the car. Next to us. Here we go, and so you just disk toss and Funnin on the iter stay. You ever been that board in time. Mom Has it ever happened to you? So what do they do about the crowding stuff yeah? So everyone's freaking out about this and this Guy John B Calhoun? He was like well I'm going to do an experiment and see what happens if we let this play out and so what he did is he got a bunch of rats? Mice, no rats. Oh later it was nice. Okay started out with rats. Well, first was bats, but they flew out of the enclosure like Oh, they can get away, and so experiment works for Vampires. So he set up this big enclosure that was separated into four sides: charater four sides of it and in between the sides there is a cross in the middle for each of the sides of an electric fence, so four corners electric fence separating all of them. So it's a square, yes with four squares inside yes and then separating them as an electric fence. Okay, on the bottom three, there is a big bridge that goes up over the electric fence, but just one so there's from the top right corner to the bottom right corner to the bottom left corner to the top right. But there's not one or the top when you're saying are you is this. This is laying on it's on this table. Yes, this is the angle you're looking it's not like it's up right, yeah! No, it's not upright yeah in fat, so, okay, but then the top left and top right are not connected by a bridge. So you can only go, only have a you, so you have to go down and around to get to Kay and so what he did as he did minor things to set up. If you will better places to live so there was like, for example, in the top left corner. The nesting space was at the top of this ramp, but the ramp was significantly taller, then all the other ones all of them had ramps. But this one was really really tall Kaya a little inconvenient because you had to go up, get to carry your couch all the way up there right where everybody else could just carry it right in the door. Yeah gotta get helpers yeah, but the bigger impact, the bigger impact, was the food supply. How big is this? I don't know exactly like probably room size. I don't know it's not huge, interesting but big enough to where you could have a few dozen rats in each section, so decent decent. So he s not on top of a table. No Definitely Not Table Top, definitely not table top like room size at least okay, and so, but the bigger impact was in two of the sections. There was feeders that were feeding full size pellets and into the sexier fears that were feeding powder, and so there was a clear difference in food and a clear difference in Nesting Zon Age, or that they had initially, it began to where everything kind of works normal, like the rats, were all going across the bridge and interacting with each other and giving food from the PALLAS getting fruit from the powder over time, though, as more generations of these rats were born into their habitation, how long this experiment last a long time a couple years, oh as more rats got born into it, got more to Adora and they got more population to it. A few really interesting things started happening, so there was what he described as like. The Beta males of the population would wake up really early way before sunrise and they would cross the bridges and they would go to where the pelts were and try to gather as many of the past as they could and bring them back to their side of the bridge. Before everybody else woke up once the Alphas woke up, they would go stand guard on the bridges and not let anybody get past them in real section of the habitation, and so that was why that happened. They all started being like. Well, we got to get up before they do and go get all of our. The same thing happens. Now you see these dudes with like tribal tattoos on their arms standing on bridges around town. You know, don't go to. I said of the bridal like rose out there, another bridge right down the street and they just like got a little boom box and they're blaring old, Joe rogen episodes. You know and they're, just like pretty good Awfur from the fore. It was like pub like Perrouse, like episode, twenty of Joe Rug, an pass saying yeah and it's like really bad audio quality, and it's like. Oh okay, yeah, that's exactly what's happening simultaneously. Do you think Alpha Brose, listen to our show? No Yeah? No, I you're listener to this is the most Bada thing about you. I hate that language. You, I hate all. I hate all those people who do that yeah, I mean to me in my head, like I don't use that language, but the dudes would like tribal tats who do use that language, like they call other people Batemans like that's the most Bata male behavior. You know I'm out like if you got to like tell me how much more powerful you are, the other people I feel like pretty not power, you're a weak little TORP, your weak little O, and I will punch you in the face over some full size, pellets. Okay, I want the full pellets. You know at Tillin we're not just a podcast we're a ministry and our hope is to continue to reach more people with the light and the joy of the Lord, because I remember at the center of all this, the core of who we are. Our main objective is to fiddle off the devil. If you want to help support us in that ministry, please join us on patron. We will get at free episodes, exclusive merchandise, a discord channel or we can discuss everything you want to talk about your dreams, your ideas, your problems, text till in to six six, eight, six! Six! Do you feel that relief anyway? Here's another advertisement, so so like this, so there were larger rats that would then stand guard and make sure that no one could get into their yeah. They started hoarding the food there's a little robin hood rats that were just climbing over the Robin Hood Rats: Oh Gosh, getting shocks for everybody else and throwing it over the fence yeah. No, that did happen. Another interesting. That thing happened, the taller than nesting enclosure, the worst the parenting became because it got harder for them to get up there and take care of their young, and so they found that the the mothers of the the rats that were in the lower enclosures would do everything that they rastell do to rear their children, but in the taller ones it was almost as if they were conserving energy because they didn't have as much food, and so they would come up, and they said that when they would move the rats around, they would often just kind of scatter them. They want t move them all together. They would just kind of toss them around wherever they ended up and they wouldn't feed all of them like they would only partially take care of them and do the bare minimum possible and then like get out of there, which was very, very odd, and so after seeing this result, his preliminary thought was there's something interesting happening here. When the population get got too big to sustain itself, behavior got really really out of whack people got, they broke into smaller groups, and they got really territorial and they also simultaneously started looking out for themselves more than they started. Looking out for the whole, the rents did yeah yeah, so you said people there, a personified, the rats. These were actually people yeah. I just at the end you're going to be like hey this whole time, haven to out rats. The rats were people, the rats there, their people with little the little hats, the little rat years like the. Why would they make them? Do that? Why would they be there rat? Why would that need to be part of the experiment? Timour find out a lot about human er, but I also want to demean them as much as possible eat these pellets Y rat. We head them pellets protein powder, and then we were surprised when they were like foaming at the mouth animalistic we were lighting each other. creer like this is wild. This is definitely because we made the nest too high, not because he doesn't we've been looking at people in these next year. Here's a nest for you yeah. I can't believe these these people, and so he was like he's like okay. He had the all these thoughts about how, as it olly populated things, got crazy yeah, but then he said well, you know what he said. I did kind of influence. This he's like I made some of their living conditions worse and I made it to where there were these kind of these bottle neck points for fights to happen. I mean those those rats were like killing each other on the bridges. Do you find a or e in the electric fence? Yeah, Hey Christine? It's a Italia, Barnet reference that pushing her into lector fans. I was trying to think of a wait a bit Christine merge with rat. I was like what names have rat in it, what what names? rately, Hey Rachel they'll change, their name. Okay, I was so were Adali. I hate that so so Calhoun was like okay. How can I take as much of my influence out of this experiment as possible, so he went and he found this farmer and he told the farmer he said put on these beers you're, a rap farmer now Kay snicker for me, okay, that's weird, but it'll work. Now I went to this farm and he was like Hey. Can I use some of your land for an experiment? I know everyone's freaking about a out about everyone loves in space, but can I use some of your space and the farmer was like sure you can, but an experiment on my land like there's some wooded areas over there to do whatever you need to do. He didn't expect Cahoun to Chot down a bunch of trees and build an ager long like an Acre Square Acre enclosure for mis the guy. The FIR was just like I mean I did tell him. He could do it. I mean, I guess technically. I said Yes to this. Just hear about their three am just hammering stuff jus and the rat farmer's wife is like Hatty than you came to each other. We're got to put. We got to put a little captions underneath these that's him going. I made a commitment we're following through. That's, don't you give me that attitude? I hear the tone in your clicks. She feels this much much larger and close yeah for mice which are smaller Ehan. He got nice this time he's. I can fit more of these in here and he put a few dozen groups together and he didn't do anything different like He. Just it e ad, a bunch of random foods for were the same and well, there wasn't for a separate sections, so it was one massive, open computer and then he put a few food like. What do you call those things where it's like? He put the food of Es Yeah feeders, you put a few feeders all the same food. There was nothing in it. That was like okay, there's room for inequality here, basically, and he built a bunch of like nesting zones that were like same high. You know whatever, so there's no room for any of them to get stuck with. Is it enclosed over top? I don't know, actually are there like what the Dome with a fake sky on it? Just now, I'm saying like we're on the boys. Some other lives are standing on the street and they're like flat, dog or flat COS ICOS Ere Earth. So, like I was like no, this is a globe. The Sky is not real, like the like. I've been to the end of the closure, there's a wall so anyway, it's the true mice show, and so, but I'm saying like, were there predators in there at all? No, no, no, no so it's just the nice they're, the only ones in there. Okay, so I would imagine, probably in close as it's just an acre on this farmer's land yeah, how ye going to keep like hawks and stuff like that, so it must be, must be enclosed, but there's no there's no like pictures or videos of this experiment anywhere. He can refer. He Walt that's what he prove he did his experience. Well, I don't know: ask the RAT farmersyeah. The rat farmer has a pretty good eh and former skip town. So so so he puts all these these mice. In there and over the first about year, every hundred days, or so they would double in population, but they stayed pretty gripped up into almost families, so groups of rats that were reproducing together stay stuck together and they kind of stayed on their own thing and got food from the same place, nested in the same place and kind of were separate from each other sure. But after about a year there multicast doubled. So every fifty days they were doubling the the whole population was doubling. And when that happened, some interesting things started to happen. One the Beta mail started to arise again, and so there was this, this structure of Alphas and Abatis, and the bat is what the man is did. Is They for some reason, just all packed together in the center of this Acre white enclosure and they just kind of stuck together in the middle there and never really went out every once in a while all the altas for no clear reason. We just come bite them and then just leave, and so they had this little spot where the rest of deserve Niti just O. observing all this. I mean he just he's watching from the the wall, with a little like a like. Just like hen takes notes, it's just like Bata Bat, weak little bathos, yeah althaemenes drove their large trucks over to the center of the like Alpha males, open, a Ford plant and so and what was what was interesting? is they just kind of lived in the state of constant fear? They seemed very jumpy, very skittish, the better the Badami yeah in the center in that center, and they just stayed in that center, so afraid to the point that on occasion they would something would happen and they would freak out on each other, and so they would just kind of brawl each other and often times it would kind of be this everyone against one mentality, so one person would make a setten movement and everyone would just kind of mob them and that one would just kind of lay down and just take the beating until it was over, and then they would just kind of chill together again like they would just that was their. That one was just like okay. This is this. Is My life now? What were the Alpha males do when they were just like watching them, yeah, so the offis kind of Split, but were they bade him as killing each other in the middle? No, they were just beating the tar out of each other on a great occasion just because they got spooked like they weren't. They weren't like like malicious toward each other. But like someone, woe like a sad of moving everyone be, like God, a lot and then the bee. Oh that's Tom! Sorry, then, and it's like it's okay, I just I be eventually. I thought you were one of the Os other ones. The ouse go back to being a herd in the middle. The Alpha split into these different groups as well, and they are very there's, like gangs, yeah they're, a very odd selection of out this. You know so there was: let's just go down the line. There was a group of cannibals that there was no reason for them to there's plenty of food, but for some reason they would just go eat other mice like they would find them and they would kill them and they would eat them and there was no reason for it whatsoever. He was very perplexed by that behavior. They were kind of the most feared people in the in the whole place no way so. There's just there's a group of Cannibals Group of Cannibal, there's a so there's a group of sexual deviance, and so these were people who they started. You got quit saying people dude you gotta clarify that these are mice. Okay, you CUSA. These are people who just win at each other, like you're, giving too much personality to these mice. So there was this group of mice that initially legally you have to say mice. So there's these group of mice that for some reason they stopped mating for reproduction yeah. They just constantly wanted to mate and they had no preference of who their partner was and male female adult it didn't matter. They were just going around and finding people to just do their sexual deviation with my Finin wine for finding the reseeking. You look down this little mouse on your doe you're, like a theory V. So there's that group yeah and then there's the cannibals in response. There is the recluses and so a bunch of them. There, reclusive recluses, reclusive recluses Calhoun's got recluses, so they built so they had the the the nesting yealing. But these guys they built they dug tunnels and they lived in these tunnels and they would only come out. I guess they could a ink. They could have dug underneath the fence they got out. Did it on e Ground Dome as well? That was what that was why some of them thought it was around Earth. Okay, they reached the the underground dome, so some of them dug and they would only come out to eat or drink, and then they would go hide in their tunnels again, and so because they were like society. It can't be a part of this society, anymore, yeah, people, mice, are crazy out there and then a lot of the women in the society female mice, a lot of the female mice in the society, Women Yeah I wim ice, but okay, they stopped journeying down out of the nest. They stayed in the nes twenty or seven they cramped out and as literally the way, the researcher states it is. He said they can't out in their apartments, and so they stayed up in the apartments. Now there was house mice yeah. If they were lucky, they had one of those males that would bring them food most of them didn't so the majority of the litters started dying out because they didn't have because they an't lition yeah, because the mothers wouldn't leave because it was too dangerous, they would leave, and there was they had to worry about the canibals, the deviants and the Betas, who, if you spook them, they just mouse, yeah, yeah and so society for these rats got really really crazy for a while, and it didn't happen until the population got really really big. There was still plenty of food, there are still a good amount of space, but for some reason, once the population hit a certain point, behaviors hit a fever pitch and- and so his theory was that if there is too much population that in event that he a term behavior sink occurs where animals and his theory is, maybe people would then begin to deviate their behavior. So you would have things like the sexual deviants right have things, cannibalism and then poor, parenting, reclusion and then huddling into groups like yours and then fighting each other win and in fighting as a response to this dangerous world around you, I guess and so behavioral sink became his kind of post. Her child phrase that people in that culture were using because yeah they looked the same thing as my mentality, yeah yeah kind of, and so they just looked to the world around them and they said Hey. These cities are getting bigger and bigger, and the lifestyles and those cities are getting worse and worse, and so they started a lot of people start to believe that behavior sink was a real phenomena that was happening in human in human people, start think that behavior sink happen in human. There was this podcast that one of the Nice started in their society and the guy was like. You got to stop calling the mice you need to call them humans. I come on man, kind of call them human, and so the expectation was when you overpopulate, you affect behavior yeah, and then people begin to do things and the only solution so nervous. What is the solution to him? So he's the thing he's like well, he solution is to kill half of these minds. Calhoun, never provided a solution. Interesting! Okay! He only provided here is the research is research. Okay. What he did say is he said when, over time as new generations couldn't survive, only a couple of the letters were surviving and then everyone's getting cannibalized and killed by each other out in the streets. Eventually, population started to decline and he said after declined. After about a year of this declinante at normalized behavior started to become a little bit more regular. Hey you ever heard of dylan merchandise. That's right! We've got a full store of branded teas mugs hoodies stickers, a lot more all of its available online. If you just text tillin to six six, eight six, six we'll send you a link for all of that and we put out new designs with every episode, but those are only available for a limited time, so get them while they're hot, so things level out. If it is leveled out. Eventually, our population is decreasing. Is it okay? It's pretty pretty well increasing, still, oh really guys having as kids quit it quit it. You you're going to make canace on my voice. Yeah, your kids are either going to be cannibals or be cannibalized. This is where they're going to live in a whole facts. Don't care about your feelings? Okay! This is real! No, I feel like there's too many anxious people who listen to our show. That's not going to happen! YOU'RE, fine! So in the seventh. As long as you don't need, people, so least, don't need people, so this was why they accepted as as hey. If we have too many people, people are going to go crazy, yeah and the I. There are people in small towns who still think that about cities yeah, because it is true, like you get that many people together like there are deviens in any society, but you get a big enough place where you get em enough of them together, they are going to be a lot of people who are have devi and behavior and do crazy stuff. Yeah. There's a lot there's a lot more cannibals in the city than there are in a small town just because of park capita. These no anse city cannibals, a hundred percent. There are people in the city that each other guaranteed guaranteed. Stop It. I don't doubt it. I don't. There's people soapless, there's nobody here de Moyne, now there's nobody here who eats anybody c Cleveland Clava has a lot of canibals is in the sea. You know they're trying to to see names at Ohio, a lot of cannibals Hannibal Missouri a can he. I kiote guys like S, we're not going to get any new produce that moves in we're not going to get any at an age that like Channibal, I hate everything about you. Okay, so in the S, deviance is at an all time, high you're having things like wood stock and fire fast and okay, and- and I was that one that we talked about me- want to know that I cum social yeah, there's just debauchery the butchers everywhere, and so everyone thinking it's curing the roaring s o Ron, everyone's thinking how man, the psychologist was right, but in the s but a psychologist, Jonathan Friedman said I don't think so. I think there was something else going on there. So he said I'm going to update any. He said I'm going to get a bunch of high schoolers, I'm going to put rattier on their head, I'm not going to put them in enclosure for a couple years, see what happens now. So he got a bunch of high school students and Oh, he really did get high school th high school students and university students and then went to that same farmer said. Do you still have that enclosure? A Hey? Can I use a little bit of space in l and he built a high school. Far was talking to his wife. He was like he was like he's think about all the food in the lunch rooms. We won't the farm anymore. We can just take it for the lives like we can get the government pellets, those public school pellets, and so he set up a situation where he was just monitoring them at school. So they went to school. High School is an university students and he monitored the Haus Walker on the hallways, like hiding and lockers and stuff like he just aint, a walker, take a nose, hole, cock people are doing the little combinations and right next to it, he's sitting there. It's someone to other combination that can't get it and he's like Sthir two. Yes, that was the moment that that guy became a Christian yeah. The Guy met God. He told me some more over my locker up. That's my testimony. If it wasn't for him, I'd still be at that Loeta yeah, I wouldn't have he just high he's he's dressing up as a Ganger. It's got a fake mustache walking around. You know, sweepin stuff, a kid throws up the ground and he's just like with a broom, not even mopping it just with a broom just like, as he doesn't know how to janitor. You know he doesn't know how to he isn't at a a janitorial thing like on is school, not caninis. He would yeah janitor junior college, that's exactly what it is yeah and he's just over there. The kids are walking by a he's, just yeah yeah. How long did it take for cannibals to show over the high school only a couple months, so he measured their stress through discomfort, how competitive they became and how unpleasant they were. He said to be like interviews with him. How was he, how was he measuring those things? I don't know he was monitoring the behavior as what okay it. As so. I don't know what that means. Yeah. I think you might be closer to reality and then, after they probably knew he was doing it. I don't really think he was hiding in like was watching him for a distance like, I think I think she can. He was probably asking you know some questions, and so after he studied, and so what he did is he studied smaller schools in bigger schools to see the difference in the size of the population in the school and how it affected their behavior of the students and he didn't find any connection in the size of the school and so what he said. After the after his research concluded, he said: CAHOON's work was not simply about density and a physical sense as a number of individuals per like square unit of whatever surface yeah. He said, but it was about degrees of social interaction, and so he says he thinks what was happening was in the in his mice experiment. He said there was, as the population grew, there was more deviance in that society and those devions began to take over. It was not as much of a because population grew. Everybody started to deviate. He said that, because Papato grew, there was more of an opportunity for deviens and then those devions crewed together and unfortunately, there was no sort of ruling group that could quell the deviance the devas just kind of took over. They were like barbarians invading the town and yeah doing whatever they wanted with it. When the high schools, he said that there was no there's, no connection to that. You had the same per capita rate of people behaving or use had an ever ster whatever, but there was a group that could control them that helped limit that yeah. So he was like we a principal yeah, we mean. Would you believe it is a giant rat right? The only way to control the humans as to have a giant rat run around the highschool. Tell you what I I it like an animal anamorphic rat. It is. This: Is Ours six feet tall giant ran on it through the hall on me right now, would you respect a pale white guy in his s? All right, who used to be a history teacher won his way through the ranks that small school hasn't quite reach. The end of us all the way he's got blueberry muffin crumbs in it. You know you respect that guy or do you respect a giant rat yeah man? Mr Mouse came the class room the other day and Danny was smoking a joint and he ate him. So don't cross ter mouse, don't the rat do it, but he goes by Mr Mouse, and I don't know if he goes by that, because all he does is go and then we don't actually know his name. We gave him that name. That's probably. Why is eating this? You know I'm a hat he's actually the headline speaker at the Teachers Association, because the act scores have skyrocketed. I mean, like kids, o what rate yeah yeah. You should see him in his suit. He got yeah because he goes and they're like wow dude Kaye get below a thirty three on this he's literally going to eat our entire family set. So I'm goin to eat us all yeah, but he drives a really cool like Mercedes. You know rives at home, exactly he's got vertiges in his tail goes up and out the opposite, and I asks opping he's got that window rolled out, but it's just like pinched in the door. I think he cares a brief case to demand respect. You know, there's not a la cheese. The brief case is full of normal size rack. He goes home to his nest. You know in the farm yeah talk about Alpha, males, I'll, tell you what he's he's up there so yeah. So calhoun's conclusions were basically. If we let population get too big we're going to have a lot of bad people, Yeah Freeman's conclusions. We conclusions were there: Will there is just a percentage yeah, the higher population you have now I, if those can band together, that's when it's dangerous and he's as great and the there's Facebo groups full of them true. But his point was more Freeman's point was more: You have to have people who will stand up to them. Yeah you got to have everybody just hides in their circle in the send of the group, goes up in their apartments or dicks holes and hides in the holes. Then the deviance will rule society, but that is why, like that's where I think I think we have institutions that do that whole people accountable right, but as the trust and institutions crumbles yeah, which is, is yeah. You know the people, don't trust the justice system to deliver justice. You know- and I think the issue with that is in a lot of those situations, Devi and start working. The way into those organizations that are supposed to be holding people account yeah, yeah, right right, and so as that accountability and that trust is gone and also there's social media. This is where I make the show all the time of the you know your crazy uncle at Thanksgiving used to be just your crazy uncle with his weird ideas: yeah, but now he's in a facebook group with ten thousand other crazy uncles and they're just reinforcing each other's ideas. Exactly they're like we, we should go out and eat people. You know that that was that's kind of where Freeman takes its for you, like yeah. you see that the the camel group got really big because they ate everybody else and they had all the power the that Beta grin O at. Maybe I should a eating people keep it in with the people who are eating people exactly like those behaviors became. If you wanted to succeed in that society that birth inside Calhoun's experiment was, you had to start eating other mice or you had to become a sexual devant or you just had to hide out those were kind of your options, and so it became a matter of survival of well. What am I going to be you can? Who Am I real? Who Am? I am I cannibal, and my sexual dva E'RE NOT gonna hide in a hole which one would you do I mean I'll say when I was in high school. I wanted a bunker, so bad yeah. I know that's what I was saying. I know you're a bunker guy this one of the rows fast yeah. So how long was the high school observations? I don't know? I think a couple O years. I think he watched them through so then, what conclusions can we walk away with it? Is there any like, because I mean I feel like they're, both just like yeah, the person was kind of wrong. Well Yeah. I think I think the bigger thing vans exist. There's no hope there yeah. I think I think, with Freedon and I think free mins. The conclusion you have to take because I think it I think cahen experiment was interesting to watch that yeah the devens kind of took over there, but he is right. There is no power structure, there's no systems yeah that can exist. That is a difference between humans and animals, as well as our ability to make systems yeah and our ability to override our desires. Yeah Yep Yep Yep, because you have a desire to punch someone in the face, but you can go. No, that's not productive. You know that doesn't help anything yeah yeah. So I think I think you have to look at Freeman's results, because one I mean he did actually study people, not mice, people, not people dressed his mind yeah, who were who were belittled every day into thinking, yeah, announce you're, a mouse and you're a DVAR mouse to like you're, not even a good mouse dv Mouse. I just need some want to tell me I'm a good mouse. You know dva mouse. He s sounds like a two Usan blog yeah toad and for em dvosh sounds like a disgruntled ex Disney employee who then goes online and starts a whole forum for people who are trying to take down Disney. You know it's like share your horror stories of working for Disney. I have this Devatas, it's a whole form of people who are like. Oh my gosh man I had to. I was the person in the Mickey suit. They would force me to eat all the other mascots e Goofy, fro Epcot was super weird. When they first started it have we have we done it up. We haven't done an episode about Eco, haven't I'm sure about it. Yeah there was actually also a canibal mouse group that was run by the shift managers. That was not a real cannibalism yeah there were Trito, get people fired yeah, but you know so I think I think yeah. I E O et Freedman, though, because Freeman, actually, you keep saying Freedman it's Freedman, there's a d: okay, Yeah Free O, you keys switchin between Freeman and Freedman, not just sometimes the DIS, a little less pronounced. Okay, okay, all right everything go ahead, because because one of the stud humans, not mice, but two, he noted that hey. There was no real connection in the size of the group okaybut. It was he his theory. Is that it's more of the social structures outside the DEVAN groups to control the deviens yeah exactly so. If there's a if there's a structure, if society allows DP behavior, then it will contain it well. But as long as society says this is this is not okay yeah. So you point to things like Las Vegas right, there's a place where DV and behaviors allowed and Devin an behavior is encouraged a lot yeah, but you go to places like I. Don't know Ol Iowa, yeah, small town, you say you say the sword which to them is shut up. You say that you're right get it. You know I'm telling you yeah yeah, so it's the social structure that controls the deviens, not the size of the sure, the Suchan mice didn't don't have social structure. No, no, so they just either were killed or be killed. Basically, no as their society grew too big, but to leave it Calhoun's one big conclusion: he said that he thinks that the fate of population, as it goes too big, is that of revelation to eleven, where, where it talks about how there is a second death and so the first, the social breakdown of society is the spiritual death and this tares death and that's what we saw happen in the mouse. The second death is the bodily death of the people, and he says our society has already experienced it's first death because of the collapse of. Are you joking ers is what he said. This is, I said: okay, I thought you're doing A. I thought, because your tone of voice shifted to now. He was serious. I just didn't: take it serious, okay, okay, so he says that we're headed toward a second death. Well, I mean everybody's always headed towards dying yeah working. This is a hopeful episode. I love this well now. The Hope I love that someone can listen to this and they can get into this episode and they go man. Here's the hunters break. Here's the help when your friends do bad stuff call him out on it. That was Freeman's point and if you have people around you who suck tell them to stop it, that's what keeps people from Secchi people from taking over okay. I stand up to it. So yeah, there's a there's, the moral, the story cool if you're ever in, I don't know lost Angeles Amen. is a man running down the street with being chased by a giant rat? You step is one of that around and you go no! No! You Go. You be really useful. Thou be really Carlo because you gotta go your bite. Your fingers up because is eat me. What is no is eat me, so be very listen to the difference. Eat Me. No E, the fair careful. No, I hear it yeah you're right, you're, right, you're, right, you're, right, there's a different yeah! Also you could also instead of know. You know I would be right, but if you did, if you added a third at the that's fiddle off question things are, then that night is a production of space.

Throughout history, generations watched as the younger generation took the helm. With each transition of power, the older generation has often disapproved of the behavior and decisions of the younger. This was particularly evident in the early 20th century. Events like the roaring ’20s, the world wars, and the great depression left people wondering if the world was ending. Some … Read More

Made for robots, by robots. Only read if you're weird.

Hey ma'am, what's going on, have you ever heard of Satan? Are you really going to come in this hot? Are you serious yeah? Let's talk about the devil, I'm sweating right now I get nervous, is epist coming out at the beginning of the Christmas season very crazy Christmas. Let's talk about Satan, we have the ONSTAR button. They give you a tone. Ye Do startkey that you know what I don't need in their job, but I do want to go interview for the jobs as he was a cabin a resume but yeah I was an exile or in the question of the desne's close his before hoppy lobby stole them the emperor of Babylas, a pices right things. Are you serious, yeah, I'm serious I've heard of him really he's the thing I've seen some of his work got a a you know, not oppressed. You know. We have different goals in mind. I E say probably my least favorite person, entit being yeah yeah, see here's the thing you always say you want me to put my degree to work here. We go. Let's talk about, so you want to do a theological. Here's! The thing I want to do another little caesars I want to do something: that's not controversial and instead you're going to do Satan's, not contra. He said you're going to do theology, you told me, you said why don't you put your idol agree? Why don't you put your degree to work? You know who I think I had this idea, not even using catones for this idea of your ear, all right trying to tear down this show you guys are getting a lot of views. You should talk about thinking about me Takin about me. That's good! That's how he talks man, okay, so we're legitime got to was so you're not going to spend this to be like it's, this band in the ties or whatever now Satan's Nalin, the aliens have theology of their own. I mean if they exist, I'm sure they do okay, so so we're actually get into a Satan. Yeah Satan, also known as a Devil, also called Lucifer Aka Ka here's the thing a lot of what, when you think of Satan, let's do this when you think it's sayin. What do you think well? Do you want me to do you one you made it play I'll play into your new here. We go sweet thanks. What I think of is like the Little Red Guy on your shoulder. You Know Yeah and the little pitch fork and the tail yeah he little tail at the spike yeah the hoofs yeah, the horns, you could artist say anything on yeah, yeah, yeah, the port, scard veins yeah. So there's this picture of Satan that we have today. That's like some Red Dude, where I come from yeah and there's the picture of not just what he looks like, but also hell, yeah well, yeah, that's a whole or thing we're not going to hell today, but then there's also there's also this just who he is by like what he does in his role and all the stuff. That's like can't really find it in the Bible. Okay, so I thought it'd be cool. Let's just talk about the history of Satan. Where did Satan come from so Satan was born. Is this for his wikipedia page yeah? They got his birthday. Forty seven thousand million ad BC at his bro isn't even born, yet no okay. So here's the thing. The first time you see a character that in the Bible you could relate to the satin is the guard is the beginning, the very beginning, with the the serpent super, never name. They never named this guy and he's he's just a tempter. He comes in, he tempts them and then he's just disappears from the story and then throughout the rest of the Hebrew Bible. You don't have much reference to a Satan. There's a lot of false gods and other gods. Bale is pretty prevalent, mention astrot is pretty prevalent, but you don't see Satan very often and when you do it's interesting, because that that Hebrew word that's being used. D Is The word Satan which we pronounce Satan, but it just means enemy or a fuser yeah, and so it's not used to define a person, and we know that because it's actually used every time. We see it in the Hebrew Bible with a definite article to say this is something defining the role of the person, not the name. Okay, the character in that story, so the name is not Satan. Probabit, not saying it's not a particular it a description, yeah, it's a description of his role of what he does, and so you actually see in the job, because he in that in the story he's the ancillary hate. I was making sure we're got to terms right. You know so job in story in the book of Job. If you've read the bucket job and you didn't have a lot of background on Satan or the Hebrew language, you probably would be really confused the beginning of this book because in the very beginning this book Satan comes to God in the council. So I says, God was with his counsel and Satan shows up and Satan says hey. I don't think Joe Really believes in you. Let me make his life pretty rough and we'll see if he still believes in you and God's like sure, go ahead, which is like, like no joke, which is like all right, pretty tough yeah, it's the oldest book. We have in the Bible, here's the first one written like by date. So the world was very different, then is one thing we just have to acknowledge and so their view on who God was, and what a good God would be. But Joe was the first one we got yeah. It was the first book, and so you have to acknowedged that before you approach that book to begin with, but you also looking at that. You have to realize that the Satan who comes in this story is a person who's, filling a role of the enemy, the accuser, the tempter, he's a person who's, a part of this divine counsel that God has which the Bible references a couple of times, which is just this group of basically angelic beings who help God see forth his mission yeah and for some reason, there's a guy in it who's supposed to go. His Jo is just like yeah, let's mess us up y. Ah, that's what we were trying to take a little tricky hate. We we're trying to do so kind of which is weird and doesn't make a lot of sense. But that's that's what's being explained. Her is not that the devil is just shows up and is like hey. This guy isn't really par. I dont like job yeah, that's not what happened! Yeah Yeah! I don't know, I want to fight him, okay, and so so it's it's still difficult to chew on in our Western minds, because you're like well, why do God say okay to that, but it's easier than the devil coming to God and saying, and God be sure, do what you want man it was. It was a guy who was fulfilling a role that God had given this so they're just going around the council God's like all right guys re come to job. I was thinking about like doing some good stuff a thin and everyone was like yeah. We should like really yeah. We should do some good stuff. You know great okay, good, stuff, good, stuff, good stuff, great okay, and then you just hear guys and everyone does yes the enemy. First of all, I was to go to on son name for my job. I was thinking o doing some bad things to him. The interesting point continue ye flesh this out. Yes, a little bit yeah. I just want to want to make his life as tough as possible and to see if he still likes you yeah. That's got interesting. Haven't done that yet I hadn't thought about. I mean so far. It's all been good, so motion pass all right, like what kind of which is really weird. It is really weird it's tough to deal with, but that's the story we get right, okay, other than that. There's a couple quick passes to their other stories. Do the other Gods at this time have counsels there's not a reference to it? Okay, so you can't say for sure I mean there does seem to be. You might be able to say that they are at least in collusion together. Maybe I don't mean like with God with Creator, God, no, I mean like yeah yeah, there's, there's evidence that maybe and it's it o d be very circumstantial, like I'd, be tough to say for sure, but you could say maybe that these other, like, like spiritual being, they were working together at a purpose, but I there's nothing clear but anyways. That's really! All you get in the Old Testament, a couple of references to there being some sort of spiritual enemy who is deceiving us and then also in some occasions. A member of God's counsel, who is his role, is to deceive deceive for the purpose of apparently like testing. People is what it seems like and then the Jews going to exile and Babylon, and so this is this is an interesting period. So after I what the events of the Old Testament and then there's the New Testament there's a period of a couple hundred years referred to as the Inner Testament al period, which really fades further past the time of when the event its happen B. It's just at the time in between the writings. What's this seven year gap in your resume, that's my inner testamenta period. I see you work at subway and then there's just a few years here, where there's not a lot there, a as an exile, Babylon, it's pretty horrible, I'm gonna I want to. I just want to go. You know what I don't need a their job, but I do want to go interview for some jobs. The was a capita resume but yeah I was an exile yeah. I don't worry about that. That's a tough at learned, a lot of it! Well, you know there was an enemy and you know I wouldn't call him. I wouldn't call him enemy, that's not a name. You know yeah, it was like you know it was his role. Is Role was to be my enemy yeah? I think God put him there. If I was really to break it down. I think he's part of a council they're like okay. I think we're going to pass on his roll. You know what I realized. I was in the ocean. My plane had just got down. I was in the ocean and I thought this is the enemy you know but wait. Here's the thing, here's a thing. What I learned from that is my biggest weakness is actually my strength, and so you don't see you right in that down. You should write that down. You should tell your your supervisor that Jus, right biggest weakness is biggest strength, his biggest trees. Actually, all right, I for so writing it upside down like what is this macaronic real you're rig your name on the table. Have you or a love, one been diagnosed with too many advertisements during the till an podcast? Have we got good news for you, our patrons, enjoy, add free experience and to get early access to content behind the scene, stuff, exclusive merchandise and access to a private discord channel. We we all are in it our producers and the hosts. So if you'd like to be a patron today and solve that problem, why don't you text till in to six D, sixty eight six six, so so during during their exile yeah? What happened Babylon came took, took over and he's like you're a Bablon now and they're like no we're not and they're like. Yes, you are there like yeah, you yeah you are, and so it is really rough. It was a really really rough period. They just place a lot of people destroyed. All the temples destroyed a lot of homes and everything, and just is what empires do you know, took over and like your one of us now it's I was really really tough period and when you look at a lot of the writings in that period, some very interesting things happen like cultural Shis, within Judaism, one of the biggest ones to the biggest ones less well. Look at to him. The first one there is. This shift of. There is a an evil power at work gray that had never really been much of a point. In Judaism there was, there was the serpent. There was other evil spirits out there, but they didn't really care they're, like we worshipped, O God. Above all of them, we don't give a crap, but now, in this inner testamenta period, where they're in exile in Babylon, all of a sudden, the enemy becomes a bigger player. Yeah. The enemy is really important because they're living in this situation, where they're kind of their living underneath an enemy and a lot of them, politicized that in the anime is now the emperor and now Babylon, and so especially when you look at a lot of the latter profits and a lot of some of the psalms and stuff you hear all throughout that Babylon is a word used a lot as an evil, because in their eyes that was the picture of evil in the world and when they got taken over by them, it just got amplified even more. I M Goin name my kid on Er Roddy, any Myers yeah. This is a little baby alone on neest baby long baby, Lawn Babylon baboon. I hate you Bablon baby one. I didn't even pick up on that. Okay, so I know you didn't you were like lying in are what was I like, my alright you? So he don't don't get about of me, get mad of the enemy, the other big shift yeah. I was the nation of Babylon. They were. They believed ensor Astrans, which was a big RELIONI. That big word for astrology, so so the the emperor of Babylon was a pices right so and we all know how they are. You know, and so it just got pretty crazy and I did have bloggersto explain what was going on back then, and in that faith there was a chief enemy who was rebelling against the chief good and they were described as the light in the dark and they were at war with each other and over the course of their time and exile. You see their teachings start to kind of adopt that view with cristy adopt the view or they start to use that framework to discuss their view. I mean it's probably began more like that yeah, but over time it began to morph to where it was like. Oh No, there is a evil God, and there is a good God and they're at war with each other interested and they started, and you could tell when you're reading a lot of the Inter testamenta text, which aren't biblical texts, but there their extra biblical stuff that we still have they were in. Oh, my Gosh, I'm John a blank right now, the Cleveland he found them. We found them in Cleveland the de course yeah they were there. They were in the Colection wit, The des Crawls. This is before happy lobby stole them before I ha la O, O be like we didn't steal them. We bottom, let's different them from a guy who stole them, but we bought up he's the bad guy yeah. So so he's the enemy. You might call him Satan we're the good guy. You start to see this shift in the writing about them, as if there's this powerful God and in their references back to the story in genesis to joe to other references throughout Isaiah and Ezekiel can start to see. There's this narrative that begins to arrive within Judaism of this is the enemy. It's no longer a enemy, it's no longer another spiritual being that has rebelled from God, but it is the chief of enemies, interesting, okay, and it appears that in this period also there's the story- and I say a I think, it's Isa. I could be wrong in that. I A but yeah he okay. Where is often the the narrative where we get the idea that Satan fell from heaven yeah and in that it says something along the lines of an Imparai play. It says the Don Star felt, fell and brought down a tenth of the stars with him and is cursed. Basically, the interesting thing about that passage is the beginning of that passage, says basically an oracle about Babylon and so they're sang we're talking about Babylon following, but at some point they read that into them, and maybe partially because of their experience in Bablon, where they painted Babylon. As the devil started to say, that's a story of Satan falling from heaven is using okay lace, okay, which Don Star an interesting little little tip of her doncaradam Venus, and so they called Venus the Don Star because it rose with the sun yea and the Latin translation of that phrase was Lucifer because Lucifer means brings the light. An we got the name Lucifer so so don star is not just the button in your Chevy car, but you click wherever you need help you're saying Don star is in the pible Yeah Don Start Down Star Dancer, you have the on star button. They come, they give you a toe, yeadon star button. It takes you to he. Let me warn you they're, pretty close to each other. So I, like you a flat tire like Oh man, you know becassin that the dilemma you know what's really interesting is now you fast forward into the New Testament and you start to see it a lot of these cultural changes that to happen yeah, because if you look at Old Testament, the devil's rarely reference this so really reference. So you think that it could have started as then trying to speak to the culture using their I'm, not making a joke. I'm going with you yeah yeah. I think that is in their framework and then what happened is that they got themselves. They got yeah taken over yeah, but I think I think I think that's accurate and you look at a lot of the letters and it seems like they had a very similar view of who the devil that that the devil was and how this sort of spiritual warfare worked. Okay, which is very interesting- and I feel like I feel like we need to make it an a Denda, real, quick before we get into where things get more interesting. I I I, the Bible is really old, and there is this, there's this sort of belief in Christianity that the Bible is like exactly the way it was intended to be, and I know you're going to make this controversial, I'm not making it controversial, and- and is I'm trying to find the right words to say house, I don't work in the church, an markers go for. No, I want to here's the here's the reality of this. The Bible was written by people a long time ago for people who lived a long time ago and trying to apply it literally with everything parallel to our current civilization. Just doesn't work, it doesn't work because we don't live in that world. It's like trying to tell a kid today about blockbuster they're, not going to get it we're in the same position, but thousands of years removed. We don't understand that culture on top of that. Well, the average lay person doesn't understand the culture I mean to Orissa it better than we do, but they don't have even the EOTE Werne culture get it yeah, but even even more than any of that this is, it happened within a vacuum. There was a world outside of the Bible and outside of the people who wrote the Bible and that influenced them and the way they saw the world is evident in the things that they wrote. This is why the picture a lot of people are like. Oh well, the Bible says, God is the same yesterday and today and for ever, but why is he so different? The Old Testament than he is from the new testant, it's because of the inner testamenta period, a lot of things happen and the culture shifted and people's view of God really changed. The writers of the Bible had one view of God in the Old Testament and they had a different view of God in the New Testament and they wrote that into their writings. Does that mean that God is different between those periods? Absolutely not, but the way they talked about him changed, and so, if you don't, if you're, not cognizant of that you're going to miss those things, and so I think it's really important and it's also easy to just go. But this is all doesn't make sense. They're also going to be like yeah, it's trash, there's a lot of there's a lot, a lot o a lot of a lot of stuff where there's a lot of text and stuff that isn't in the Bible that we have. Oh absolutely, there's a lot of stuff, that's outside that has and then not even related to faith. I'm saying like from different time periods. We can go. Oh here's what they were. Believing us a a exactly yeah so all right to say the Bible s an important brook, but people wrote into it the their cultural view, and if you want to accept Jesus in your heart right now we're going to lead you out a prayer but anyways so to say that the New Testament view of the devil also shift it shift it. It doesn't look like it, he does in the Old Testament for sure it is now a person, a yeah, an individual character. In the story you see him show up in the desert with Jesus and ten Jesus, you see reference to an authology. We need to avoid the temptations of the devil. I don't think I should say I don't think it's consequential. I think whether it's a group of enemies or it's an individual enemy or it's a the spirit of rebellion within all of us doesn't really matter. There's something deceiving us is the point of the story who that character is is not consequential, but you can see the culture shifting the view now over time after the Bible is written. You start to see a lot of other things. Are To happen: When does he become the Red Guy, we're going to get there yeah so in in the Middle Ages? Something really interesting happened in a lot of plays somewhere along the line. It's hard to pin point where it happened, but somewhere on the line. A dude in a red suit started to be the comedic relief in a play, and he would over time, turned into more of this devilish character and they started giving him hubs. They started, giving them tails and wings and like horns, but he was the comedic relief like his wish of adding stuff to yeah. I guys is her potato head yeah and he would just kind of dance around stay O B here yeah and he would like do something really stupid yeah. There was a scholar a couple years ago hold on. Let me see what his name is. It doesn't matter something pool, but he was writing about him. I can't remember his first name, but he was like he said this whole character his whole, all they ever did was for years. They just frocked on the stage, fell and fared in in the background, and that was just their role, and so they was kind of like they picked this she forded in the background yeah. So I the Middle Ages. Even then their humor was just like they're, just like it be is but me to sound. You, Hey, hey, hey, that's the enemy, that's than you take him seriously. Well, we aim I've taken more series of his but didn't make that twenty sound. Well, that's kind of a hat. You got to really think the, and this is what we're talking about like theologically biblical principles here, we're talking like the way to beat the devil is two ways: one you gotta learn the fiddles and to I mean just imagine that even the Devil Farts, you know even Satan, rips one every once in a while. Oh my gosh, you know take it back to that council meeting where he's like. Hey everybody just had a quick idea. It was. I sat he's like don't mind that maybe the good place had a right where he's just like a guy who's, like you know what a yeah er one of the council is just like m. What should we do about job? I got an ID like hey. Have you er heard of tilling podcast March? That's right! We've got a full march store of tilling branded, teas mugs stickers, hoodies a lot more and we put out new designs with every episode, but those are only available for a limited time. So you got to get those wither. Hot Text Tilono six, six, eight, six, six to get access to our exclusive merchandise, so it was a comedic relief in place, a relief in places, but that we almost like that's the enemy. Well, as ironic that you took that art because that's kind of what happened so just coming and trying to ruin the character it wasn't always it wasn't always. He was necessarily influencing things. He was more when things would go bad, he would appear in the background. So surely was like this darkness, like yeah, dark figure that was kind of red like ere yeah, and then you start getting things like Dantes inferno, yeah a which was a big influence, because he has this beast with these bat wings, and so he paints the picture that this is some scary, terrifying creature, and they took a lot of those parts and they personified it into their picture of this enemy, devil figure. You also see it and Milton's paradise lost. They borrowed a bunch from that and you also see from other characters in just different mythology of the era, also in even before that in Greek and Roman, with Ology they're, just grabbing different things from different characters throughout theology that are or different mythology that are evil es and stories, and then all of a sudden, you end up with hers, mashing stuff together, yeah. Well and honestly, I mean if it's for entertainment purposes, that makes sense, because you're e just trying to explain you yeah everyone's, you know, but then something happened. This had become so prevalent all over the place in in the culture. That's somewhere along the line, and you can't really pay pen it down, but somewhere along the line. The cultural representation of the enemy became the Christian belief of who that enemy was yeah and everything down from the way he acted to the way he looked it became. That is who that is, and that is our enemy, and it was a very long slow more up into the point where we have the picture. We have the day of the little red guy with the horns in the pitch fork to knows and yeah, which is I yea, weird tongue, yeah. The weird filer talking weird Tom is as a bunch of creepy stuff that we put a six stand around yeah fire pit M, but a lot of that stuff comes from most of what culture and what of what we think of the devil today comes from way after the Bible was written, Yeah and then a lot of it comes from that inner testiment mental period, where Israel is just kind of going through it and they needed a scapegoat like for real. They needed someone to blame yeah, yeah forts. If you don't blame the devil, you end up like blaming each other yeah yeah I bot blaming people or God yeah, and so they took they took kind of this Amagi a mall. Shall we monoamine lary of all amalgamation of auto? You still say figures, no, a we just. Can we just like overdub that Alex? Can you just say it right over his voice of all these evil figures from the old test? Can you also say every time he says the word figures? Can you also overdub that, because he says overtakeing I say just take everything guys say a EIFEL figures. That's the right way. Okay, so and then they just mashed them all together. They just bashed them all together and okay. The Bash brothers of evil in this we're like this is the one bad guy yeah, not a lot of evidence from that, at least from the Old Testament New Testament, you kind of get some, and so so we let all with that. Since the Middle Ages, well, we've been rolling with the individual view of an a person of evil who's, tempting and deceiving us since the Inter testamenta period. Okay, so just before the new test, Mos ran, we've been rolling with this transformation of him into what he looks like and the way he talks someway. He acts in pop culture since the Middle Ages has been, that's been transforming a o what it is today, but that picture of what he looks like and when he talks like and a lot of his role is not accurate at all. Take it back. Maybe there is, if you look at the New Testament, maybe there is a single individual figure who is out there deceiving us and tempting us and pulling US away? But if you look at wasn't do of the story, it's much more likely, but there's a handful of these figures. So more of the story is: How are you going to bring up aliens in this? Well, there's, not just one Satan, there's about a dozen satans yeah, so better have watch out fiddles. I Guess Better Watch out for those dozen of those dozen devils yeah. Could I get a dozen devils? Yes, I would love a sack of Satans. Please can I get a lot of lucifer o? What a loud a Luteolus e give me a look. Give it a logos. Just get me. Oh Man anyways that that go o Venam, I don't know the enemy just war shaking their heads. I was trying to go for another one hold on. I I it oh here we go an enormous amount of enemies how they hay, which means you're going to need a anyways, so so you'll need a O. is the one thing we know from more overs worser, here's one thing we know for sure. Just before the garden event, when the serpent arrived in the garden God and Satan in the council moment, they're in the council- and God said I need you sang said me and got said. Yes, you it's very poetic, so I me yeah. He said that I need you to take this fiddle and hold on to it. For me, Joe Fight Job go fight, job. All right he's like I will I will I did all this stuff.

Let’s talk about Satan. The devil is one of the scariest creatures in the whole Biblical story. The problem? Well, the Bible never describes the devil in the way the creature is portrayed today. The Bible rarely ever refers to Satan as a single figure or the chief of evil. The picture we are given from the Bible is far … Read More

I hope this topic is an interesting because, if someone's here because of the topic, we are again wasted, the first two minutes being idiots. Well, hey man: what's up, have you heard of Jose Canseco, Jose Canseco, Jose can say co? Okay, we can start over if you want to be less racist, inspired him because he was like. I want to live forever. The book was called Juice, wild times, rampant, Royd Smash Hits and how baseball got thin pure tell me o Boma's, not juicer, I'm just looking for equal treatment of a raters, I'm a bidding to a lot of stuff. I beside S, everybody that I've murdered people and got away with it things Oscans Jose can Seco is what some would regard the father of steroids in the MLB, what a name due the father of steroids yeah? Is he like the Guy Yeah Yeah? He made steroids, he invented them, and I don't know if you're joking or not I'm not well, I am you're an he basically okay, so it's hard to pin it down because, but he got into the League at the birth of the steroid areas, a player yeah he's a player got a league at the birth of the steroid era. It's hard to pin down who started it when, as the Lloyd years, when was the late s through the s? Okay, all of the s yeah s were Royd right rage, re rage, nine Royd, rage; okay, I like road, rich yeah, so the roaring roads, so a lot of people say can say, go it's hard to say he was the first who did it because it's just like which than to play for he played for the Oakland Athletics and then about a dozen teams after that was his long is run was with the athletics. Was He playing with the athletics when they were doing their money? Ball thing? I don't know about that. You Know Money Ball, the movie, No, that Jonah Hill money ball. I don't know about that. What yeah, where the athletics did like a different strategy for picking players, and then they ended up winning, like everyone thought they were dumb, and I have never heard of it you nor heard of this. So basically the strategy. The strategy was, we don't like every all. Er teams are spending big money on like star players right yeah and the athletics there was like a finance guy who came up with this system. That was all you need is players who can get on base. Oh I've heard about that yeah I've, and so they end up winning twenty two games in a row just off that system. They start losing. After that yeah I mean they haven't, won a game since you know, but it worked for like to game. I looked it up. This was in two thousand and two was when that happened: Oh okay, okay, so yeah! I was a little little bit after his time. Yeah they did that without steroids. Can you believe it that I thought of that? No roads, yeah didn't need run, thinis really unfortunate. The steroids like were such a big deal in the MLB, because all these dudes from the s hold these massive records and it's like a lot of people. We have so Serois, definitely stars yeah, so w a what I was saying was it's hard to pin point who was the first person to bringing rods into the league because it's kind of an underground thing: yeah, it's people are they're shadowy about that. They don't want you to know. I heard it was a high school chemistry teacher Diana Cancer. You know, is really trying to feed his family and you know anything he got he he got swooped up and I and then he was like hey berry. You know: Hey Bar bear okay, so but a lot of people say he was definitely the one he was the Godfather. It happened, okay because he was the kind of guy who was like hey check this out and someone will walk over and he just jab on hey watch this. It's crazy now he's on vaccine just out there at around this tree, he's the dude. So Hey! Look at this hey! Look this. What is he like, a street magician? What is he that David Blane of steroids re he's like yeah? You just got roaded pick as Syrans any three. She is pretty graze this tree, for I just Juglans a jab up some that twenty times in a his hands are jacked brother's. Like people like that, though, there was a guy who came and spoke about Middle School, who won the world's strongest competition for his lungs, you know, he's a Gran, the start yeah. He got a blow up, annibal anima balloons and stuff with his lungs, and the whole speech was like don't smoke. That was his whole thing. Where he's like you want to be like you want to have the world's strongest lungs, you know. All you got to do is like ruin, your marriage and divorce, your wife and start speaking at middle schools. You know and then just blow forty balloons a day. How do you? How do you stretch for that? You know. That's insane anyway, do had trouns, never heard of that. So I would not. I would not put it past the strongest man competition to have a fingers strongest hand. That's got on fingers, you so Jose Yeah. He was the kind of guy he'd hang around the locker room and just juice, his friends and then all of a sudden, everybody in the League was pretty clearly on steroids. You doing finger pushes yeah. I was trying to get my hand yoked. You know just really working I hate to so. It's spread it's Ben here. Let's pack it up. Let's look it. There was like a Herod Pandemic, yeah, a tandem, so back it up. Jose anemic seems like something that a youth pastor would would be like hey guys we to stand up for our faith. Oh God, we just start a stand. demicentennial, my Gosh, that's you know a hundred percent yeah. I bet it's happened. I bet O for sure. You know got a google. It will back it up through his history he's born in Cuba. His Dad worked for a like a manufacturing company in Cuba and when Castro came into power in fifty nine, his dad lost his job and they were permitted to leave the country, so he can find work so the kind of got out in the neck of time. Okay, move to Miami. He was one of a twin and they both have baseball. They pay baseball, their hornbooks won yeah. His twins name is Ozzy Josea, Azi Censeo: He went into high school, played a lot of Basel on high school, but was never great played junior varsity where they moved to Miami Cure. Was He played university and he actually was the VP of the JV team in his junior year. So I got a chance to play senior university and needed pretty good, but it was like. Was He juicing? Then he was it's like yeah, this guy's like four times the weight of everyone else on the team, pretty crazy. It's nuts, I don't know how I did it, but but he was like generally good at baseball, yeah yeah I mean he was decent like it wasn't like he was. He was like a prodigy, hmm yeah, because I mean he didn't start varsity until his senior year and even in that and his senior year, he was only right for older yeah. He was only decent, but he was good enough in eighty two to be drafted by the oaken athletics and shifted into their feeder, leagues, okay and so like he went straight from high school to the pros, a'll be at minor leagues, but we still playing in the pros, and so, but he was shifting around all of their their feeder teams for the athletics sure and he was not inspiring in the slightest like he was like okay, you know, you'd sit around them and you be like what do you think about the future and he's like I don't know, doesn't look great you know doesn't like this is an inspiring man. His other teammates were out here, like hey dude. If you work out your lungs and you never smoke, you can have the strongest lungs in the world and he was over there just like. I doubt it not very inspiring to be round. You know the kind of guy that you sit around and you go a man. This is bleak. This is leges. He he he would have had a decent career in the miners is kind of where he was at it was like you could play in the miners. You would never be the don't get a iners, though do they. I don't know. I don't know what the miners look. Quite, probably not in the S. I don't know, I really don't know, but it was like, as like, you're going to you're to pay a little bit you're just living on you're living on twenty four thousand a year and the hope and yeah promise of maybe hope of Ma wasn't very inspiring so s he was like well, he missed part of the beginning of his eighty five season. Okay, because his mom was on her death bed, so he flew home and she ends up dying and it inspired him because he said you know. I want to be the best player of all time figure more. It inspired him because he was like. I want to live forever. He hes a fame member Dian. He's like that's, never going to happen to me, you have to be now. He wanted to honor his mother, and so he wanted to become the best mlb player of all time, her name and her name, so he started doing drugs. I know how to do it. He said he said. I want to honor my mother's memory. Anybody got some R and they were the there like tars the hospital like we had a lot. We know it yeah like so. This is on. This is all that's actually what we do more, that's great, the US! No, I that I that they're going to be like well, you know you could grieve differently yeah, but you went the rout of yeah. They've got them and doctors is righting scripts yeah. What do you mean? Yeah he's a new drug called oxy. He a love it. So he goes back. He comes back from this trip, Royd it out, and it's like a hundred and eighty on a season like almost immediately he's just playing super crazy or the whole team was like yeah. This is like yeah, his mom's death really inspired him. He went off not inspiring to vary. All he talks about is how great he's going to be. You know it's contagious, I feel so. He earns the nick name, which is the most ironic nickname ever herns the nickname this season, the natural I don't know what I was expecting for that wasn't it he's a natal dude a, but that fine specimen what you just hit puberty you're, he might have you know he might have Fu. You know he's what twenty one at this point yeah. I don't know Man Yeah, probably about twenty one, a he just gratia gross spurt and twenty one wow, that's crazy, dude, and so towards the end of this, the eighty five season. He ends up getting called up to the major yeah he comes on with the Athi. We got a prodigy down there, and so he plays twenty nine games an for the Oakland, a a as at a these. They just call their Myer Ling, tea, they're, just the devil, because that in a one of the the Oakland das down there, what are they? It's a? He only plays twenty nine games that season, but he ends it with ninety six at bats and comes up with five home runs thirteen r bis and a batting average of three o two so has a pretty pretty good season. His next season is technically his rookie year, since he it's his first sure for full season full year and he wins a rookie of the year wookiee and woke okay. He Cos o the season considerably huge like when he cuts out they're like Wow Tho. You Got Jack the off season and he's like yeah. I he's like yeah. It's all natural call me the NAT come wit the natural, that's weird. If someone gives themselves a nickname, you know it's fine, as someone else says it yeah. But if you come out n you're, like I'm the natural you're, like, I think, he's unnatural. I think things yeah. Something is trying really hard to convince us that he's naturally so in eighty seven is his second full season. Marco Maguire joins the League, who he got called up from the minors as well. Yeah Mark McGuire is pretty visibly juicing as well. Ye Look at him and you say: They're, probably juicing, and so now dreot at it's pretty wild at that's still a thing, though you know what is that like there's steroid use, you know, because I mean you look at on Instagram Theer Day there was two sixteen year olds who are jacked, but you can always tell because they're vain s too big right there and it's like it's like about to like burst e all day, yeah yeah it s like the rock steroids, yeah, Ena Yep. Definitely Steids, definitely right, but it's interesting like body building and I went up because Kurt The guy who owns the gym. He was like into like actual baldy body building yeah. You know a wile ago, but he was talking about like Arnold Forten Egger. You know not a steroid user, at least back in the day yeah, because the whole point of those competitions was to get your measurements exactly the same yeah, and now it's just about be as big as you are and lift as much as you can you. You know you strong hands, yeah, you know strong, but but back then like so compared to modern day body billers. Arnold worten Egger is not impressive, but what wasn't like his measurements? Measurements were identical. You know so he's also really strong, well yeah yeah, but you're. Also what the art of it was. You know if this one smaller. I know I need to work out this and do different things to make all the things the same yeah and then now it's just. I mean it's why I was looking at the like the because they came up on the discover thing, and I was like this. This kid looks his face looks too young to have his body yeah and I clicked- and he was like you know, home coming and I'm like pro what the heck me like wild yeah Jose gave them the yeah he's Yeah, you love my dad hose. Can Sako so mark McGuire, Jose quickly become two of the biggest names in the lake O, thou, you're, gonna, say pals a cothy look across each other, the team. They go you by sensor, fake natural, like giving each other the not across the field and they're just incredible yeah that year Jose and pretty well their performance. Would you say it was enhanced this season Jose his thirty one home runs? Oh my God, Mark McGuire Hits Forty Nine, Oh yeah, I mean and honestly I grew up a cardinal's fan yeah. So I was fine with it yeah I was like this is great. This is, and so they they got. They started doing this thing. That's like I mean you see it all the time now, but it was that they were like. I think, the pioneers of that thing where it's like, instead of like high fives, you do that thing where you, like Hook your arms, have you ever seen that were like like two dudes? So if you were, if you were right here, I would take your arm and come a yeah. You did come right there. I can't do it because it this arm is because you don't buy, set to do it. Yeah my arms out fate or your okay yeah. It was I you can't do it by yourself, not like you, don't have the arms for it now yeah, you don't have the arms a, but so they did that thing all the time and they got the nickname the bash brothers, because that's what they called it. They called it the bash that they did so McGuire Jose would do that to yeah. Yes, they would do that thing. Every time they'd hit a go, runs, yeah they'd run out and they link arms like that, and they got the nickname. The Bash Brothers en one call bachots, because they're bastion, baseballs and fashion arms and so and the marketing deportment for the ass saw an opportunity in them yeah and they start branding them as the bash brothers, but modeled after spatose. No, that wasn't out yet. Actually the Blues Brothers, Oh bus, Roers, pre, popular E, and so they had him. They had M in the photo. shoop swear these pay. What brand will never stop doing is just taking other people's self. They jus go where the Oaklana, and these are the the as brass, so they wrote a song that was like musically to the tune of one of the songs front of the Blues Brothers, but it was one of the bash brothers and the best part about the song was the hook. Was Don't waste time with a high five? Do the Bash Yeah don't ways sin with a high five. You know that time could be spent Jusan. I just love that that's your secret! Well, I just eat healthier and work out all the day. I Bash a lot and also the steroids Hell Yeah Erota big party. That's probably honestly, should listen. That first set of should have led with that. So anyways. Do you use steroids? Did you ask it? I need new steroids of us, the Rock staff and I think, stuff that this dude in my neighborhood sold me and I do off it's working that well. So I think this is essential oil, but I'm injected it. Every day an in it's just lavender I got mains full, even yeah do the rash. You know I'm saying I e rash for just break it out in hives, Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday. That's right, that's where new episodes drop on patroon patrons a way to get early access to episodes and other content and exclusive merchandise, and we're not going to stop there, because we have a private discord with our host and producers in it for less than seventeen cents a day. That's right! That's five! As a month, you two can be a patron supporter and not your advertisements in this freaking podcast anymore text, till in the six, eight six, six, otherwise I'll come to your house. I will find you. I will destroy everything, that's good in your life until we're the only thing left anyway. Here's another advertisement so they're, just dominating yeah yeah, the two of them people are like this is a wonder to bash brothers. Mark in Jase are running running the league they're, giving each other shots in the bathrooms coming out, Bashin and Bashan Baseball. I know you made shots, but I for a second, I was like shots in the bathrooms they're, just like you, they were, they were literally. They were the best players in the world, Oh yeah, I'm undisputed, and so they were all stars everywhere they went, they had he the star treatment and they lived like very live fast die. Young lifestyles came out pretty quick, though, that they weren't as good a friend. Ashbrook live fast, do Yo, that's their new campaign and everyone's like that's worse, like a song, hasn't even come out. Yet I with that, and I'm really glad you did because we're going to call that back in a minute, so it came out that they weren't as close as their yeah brand, wanted them to be. They were just teammates, yeah busy and so it's kind of a cross, but they they had to act like they were closer than they were. There were attentions. Meanwhile, Jose we do here. Mark Mark is in a relationship where he thinks Jose's, giving him exclusive shots in the bathroom. Jose is shooting everybody up in the bathroom. I say it's like marks like hold on hold on you. Do this your meeting on me and the MLB you're Jus, a cheater all around and so they're they're, having an incredible run on the field. Yeah thirty forty home runs of season, both of them sons, which is insane that two people on the same team are hitting those kinds of numbers, stealing so many bases a great job in the Outfield, oh, except for one moment, oh, except for what, except for one moment, there were well actually all throughout his career, how they had these moments that were just like. Are you a professional baseball player? Like my favorite, my personal favorite? He was, he played the in the outfield and there was this ball that was going to like it was going to be a close call. Is it going to go out? Is it going to be in the line sure, and so he jumps to get it and he hits it with his head over the fence, and so it was a home run. He headed it like it was suck dude. I felt that way watching the chiefs play this season so far like the stuff that, like Mahom's, has done you're just like are you. I had a dream about it. Last night I've been watching that dope sick series on Hulu yeah about Oxi cotton and in my dream someone was like yeah dude patrol home is like a day the oxy now, and so that makes so much sense actually put that out there. So after after that play half he knocked it over the yeah, he headed it account for his home run record. Do they give assists so after you did that a professional indoor soccer team called the Harrisburg Heat, sent him a contract? Oh my God, for a bit, though, as a joke right, a hundred percent of yeah yeah, that's Hilarious, to the like, hey you want to do that in our team, we're goin to ever. That's funny! Man would you I mean that would suck, though, because you know he's just mad all the time because of the steroids, but you know then you get like roasted and luckily the Internet didn't exist in because twitter would have destroyed his self esteem. A hundred percent, but off the field mark is whatever like he has his roy rage incidents but they're, not terrible Jose, on the other hand, murdered three people is a man madman. He does he murders from him. No, he didn't. Okay, I was gonna say I make a joke about that. He didn't murder anyone, but we know of he had he had a lot of Roy rage incidents where he did freaked out on reporters screaming yelling throwing stuff you know whatever, but he also had some crazy other incidents. Like one time the cats tried to pull them over for going a hundred forty miles an hour and he led them on a fifteen miles police chase and that that is were like Bro. You CAN'TI. Do that he's like. Why he's like give me one good reason. Another time he was in a fight with his wife, so he went outside and he ran his car into her BMW yeah. But who hasn't you know what was the fight about? Let's hear it out at your mom. I don't know what the fight was another time and he actually was charged for hitting his wife, but those charges were dropped by her. But it's you know so. There's a lot of a lot of scountrel happening, an interviewer I rammed his car into her car yeah. He just ran his car and I thought about doing that to you so many times and like not even in an angry way. You know just for fun, it'd be funny. If I did this for fun later on down the road, it came out that he was on steroids after his retirement and an interview were asked him about all these things. That happened, and I like do you think, that's because of the steroids, and he said he said you can't blame steroids for every angry out person that burst from a person. He said: What do you do if someone goes crazy and murders? A bunch of people and they're not on steroids, you can't say steroids of the problem, and so the interviewer is like. So are you saying you're the problem? Hey, hey you're buying he sarod. Have you met my wife? She sucks she sucks. You know I either a sin. Fellow person now he's like a suck. You know you on and like you like, it just seems like you're uncomfortable with this question herods. You know so after after in the middle of the ninety two season, Yours Ben, this has been happening a lot. Maybe that's what is needed, though you know it finally got him to some introspection. You know where he's like. Maybe I am the problem. Maybe I am the problem and and that's that is why I suggest, if you're having marital problems, steroids might be the solution. You know, because you can't find Jesus until you reach the NELF. You have to get some Royd rage in there. You have to get a testimony. You got to get yourself a tested money. I do a testimony Ye, I'm out. Looking for my test, that's why we call it when we walk. Someone through you know, Romans, three, twenty three O in six, twenty three, it's called the Romans Royd, so I was trying to make a man stero jokes, like an that's my job in this. So after after in the middle of the ninety two season, the as were basically like you know what this is getting too much lit on to you, yeah. Well, it wasn't so much we were on to you. They were cool. Turning a blind ed to the steroids yeah. I then it was more of a you're, a liability because of the cop chases and the beating your wife thing like, if you could stop doing all this crazy stuff, we're happy for you to break the rules and the mall be just don't write the rules in real life yeah. We didn't like that. You, you know shanked that second basement, but we love the R bis. You know yeah, if you're going to shake someone, do it with this arrange and someone on our team. It we get it. You got to shake people, sometimes yeah it I mean we get it. You Know E C MLB you're, not in the double as anymore, so he goes and he jumps around for the next, like ten years plays with the Rangers, the Red Socks and Oh hold on play the Rangers, the Red Sox for a few years, and then in ninety seven. The athletics management t was like remember, remember the past brothers Yeah were good times weren't, they those were great, and so they called Mark Maguire and they called up. I was at consecon like he just want to read night bring back the good old days, and so they did it. They brought them back and it would he they had a good year. They did well, but it was still the same kind of drama and they're like yeah. We shouldn't have have done this, so they end up letting them both walk. He goes to the Blue Jays. Then the rays, then the Yankees and the white socks and then ends up going to the miners and plays in the minors for yeah pretty much until now, he still playing shut up. Yeah, you know, I think we, your career is his last okay, so his last time he was on a depth. Chart He's, I think, he's still trying to play his last year on a depth. Chart was two thousand and seventeen. Oh wait. No thousand and eighteen, two thousand and eighteen he'd also play in a couple amateur leagues in two thousand and even and two thousand, and sixteen which is really funny to me, like he just went out for the wreck league is a sixty year old man. Over here I got his bices are gigantic the O. nothing else to I mean his legs are scrawney. Walk, looks like frame pop ye out there, so anyways, so he's had he's up having this career, where it's like I mean he should go to the hall of fame right He's had yeah s an insane most, his average home run count every throughout his whole career was forty average average, which means he got like fifty some seasons. Well now he was like forty. I think his highest was forty, seven okay, but still he was like in the S S and at the lowest in like the ties most seasons unless he was injured, and so he had just a really incredible career granted. He had some help from WHO I don't know man. I think the front office yea so anyways. When did he get found out? Well in two thousand and five he wrote a book called. I I did it. The book was caught juiced wild times, rampant, Royd smash hits and how baseball got big, and in that book he outed everybody. Oh Ye, just like yeah yeah. I gave that yer the back an that Guy Royds. Okay, that guy realise I just call them my name like practically have Bele and he's like he's like he's like yeah everybody did rods is like he's like we all did steroids. I think Barocco Bam will be president without me. He just I gave him road to the bathroom right before the primary yeah. We thought you were talking about a different barry. Now it's Berry, Ani doused, Barry, bonds, Obama. Here an tell me O bom. It's not you so, and so, and so he writes this book and obviously so many mubby players are really mad at him. After this yeah they like what do they do? They deny it bro Yeah, they all denied it. Oh really leading to this like congressional of hearing where freaking ones there like no, no we've never done steroids. Not Us not do I look like I do sterol like so sorry like us, like you got a guy running to lie playing demolition Derby in the parking lot with everyone's cars windows down just like I don't do he's just demain and everyone's just like looking at like yes, this guy's, I e does deros pretty obvious right, like it's pretty clear. We can convict this one. So in this congression I hurt my voice to do. Every other player denies their use in steroids. Yeah. Obviously Mark Maguire is my favorite, though, because Mark Maguire every question his response was. I don't want to talk about the past, which is a pretty obvious way to say yeah. I did I just wars. I want the is dude if I ever go to N for murder, which I will I ever go down for it, then that's how my in my interrogation there were like what did you do? Baki? Don't real talk about that? I don't talk about t. You know. I just feel like how's the point talkest with you officers. I just feel like you're dwelling in the past. You know- and I just really would love to push you guys to the future yeah or off a cliff one of the two would love to push you somewhere, though she somewhere. So in two thousand and seven afters book came out. He got six votes, six hollow fame votes, which is one percent of the bounce. You need at least five percent to stay on the ballot for the next year, so he missed his shot at the hall of fame and from that point forward he claims that the mave was black, balling him and say we're keeping you out. You can't be involved and even like he wasn't invited back to a lot of different events like back at the stadium until the they won a world series in eighty nine I didn't mention that actually went to a world series three years straight years. They honed an eighty nine and at the anniversary of that, the twentieth anniversary of that he went Mark Maguire didn't come because he knew he was going to be there. He don't want to se him so mart Magar and him are like moral enemies. Now, the Royd Enemies. It's tough to see the Bash Bros Yeah, you know yeah become the bash foes. I was what every where you got to go at that O. I was wondering to all I didn't see it in as like we whersh, I came up with it and said it was I was I was I trusting that my brain was going to get there by the end of the sentence, and you know what came through that time, because of all that practice, you do N. I practice comedy what about it. So so he misses this chance. The hello fame what she deserved, I mean he did a lot of Sarod. He deserves to bring the hall fame. Here's the thing: here's the shot. Are you kidding me ring here's a his thing. Everybody was juicing, that's the thing I new yerthe he deserved to. I don't think they should be in it. If here's my thing, if, if you're going to say this guy can't get in half fame, because you dosed, then everybody that in that era has the whole fame, but we don't get to put him by Jose. Canseco he's got to go in as the unnatural, unnatural, look hers, I'm saying if we want to take if we can set up a juice era, hall of fame he's a p. He can be a part of that hall of fame is a separate hall at the hall. So you're saying to me the second day hall, it's an offshoot hall, wouldn't it just be, like the you know, the hall of in Fame. You know the hall of blame, the Hall Yeah, you know. Just like I mean I mean here's the thing I will say it is cheating clearly, but it's a went agree on it, it's hard when you're like okay, so many other players who did it are in the hall of fame and he had an amazing care. He was the best in the world at the time. Why is he not getting recognized for it because he cheated, I mean yeah, but some of the other people who cheated are in the oecus. It's fine. They can mace themselves over it, but dad everybody else did it. Everyone was doing it. That's the message, your setting, I'm not saying you're, saying everyone thing it's: okay, because everyone was doing it actually. Can I nance, I would like our finances. If that's possible, I sort to make sure that you know because you've been doing it, but I would like to take over that if, as on say, if everyone else is doing it and they're getting re everybody's doing it everybody, I want I'm not saying it's. Okay, I'm just saying this guy deserves to get the recognition that everyone else is getting the same recognition because he godfathered it. I believe that everyone else deserves to get the same recognition that he's getting, which is not in the Holla. I'm saying that I'm saying the same thing, I'm saying if these good people are in the hall of fame he deserves to be into. But if he's going to be out, they all need to be out to I'm just looking for equal treatment of Royd ragers, okay, love tilling podcast want to support the show. Well, you can support us by buying till an podcast march and wearing it out in the wild. We have teas hoodies, shirts and so much more in our merch store. We also have exclusive march for every single episode, but those are limited so make sure you get him. While you can text till in to six six, eight six, six to support the show. Thank you so much. Here's what he said about it, though he was. He was asked about whether or not he thought he should be included, and his answer was. His thought was for the coming generations, and so he's like he's like. I really don't think they were like. What do you think about future years and he was like I only wanted to talk about. The past is like he's like these kids. He s the kids coming up now. He said they don't need steroids to become good players. Yeah we took enough home so now our kids just naturally have steroids in them. They don't need the duce anymore. He said he said this is a quote. He said we over emphasize the steroids and and not the afflict and skills of these people. He said we're taking away the hard work and athlete puts in and saying he became great just because the steroids, let me give you a perfect example. This is a direct quote. This is a direct what he says. I have an identical twin brother, Ozzie he's the closest thing to me genetically and in my prime I was a super athlete. My twin brother used the same chemicals same work as the same nutrition. Why didn't he make it in the Big Leagues? That's the perfect example that we are giving steroids way too much credit. If steroids are that great, it would have made him a superstar too, but Ozzie sucked. I added that last pro as he would have been a superstar to but ozzy suck. You know and Ozzie's there for the interview and as he's just like also gigantic- and it's like he's like yeah he's like he's like it even gave me the hundred forty million hours police chase. I ran to BMW with my car said we did all the same is like I did everything he did, I'm serving twenty years in prison right now, speaking of other things that they did together. Oh they got in a fight out of a nightclub outside of a nightclub in Miami with each other. No with some random dudes, okay, they beat the tar out of them. Oh yeah, because the other dews weren't on steroids, yeah one they were on steroids to we haven't mentioned this yet but Jose can say, O s a black belt in Jiu Jitsu, also a self Polam nun, chuck expert Ho. So here's the question right they k everyone's listening is having you're saying that the nun chuck expert plays a role in this, a fight outside the club, which means that he did. He have his nun jocks at the club. I don't think so. It's unsubstantiated just like you're sitting here. Ye like I got, got the go, go no take in a buttall right, don't mention the checks he's on steroids, right lots of STA, maybe he's Hidin, maybe he's hiding the syringes inside the numb job. That's where it is he's. Just like a freaking appy pin on steroids has an appy pin joke for Michael over here. So after after his after his professional baseball cart, I guess not professional, because I still was playing professionally but after MLB career ended, he did the same thing. Logan Paul did after he was not relevant. He just started changing you tubing. Now he just started challenging a bunch of face some famous people to fight, of course, yeah and so hey. You Me No chucks outside this club, so he calls he calls up a former. What year is this two thousand and eight? He calls up a guy by the name of VI SICAE. I was big in two thousand and eight.

He broke four laptops because this video t I so he he challenges this guy in a fight Vice Sikombo. I agree not sure. If I'm pronouncing that I took place on July, twelfth n Atlantic City Challenge fight with the prize of thirty sand dollars. Is it a boxing match or is it just? This is okay. He got knocked out in the first round. I love that so then I love we watch the UFC fight, I loved whatever that Dude's name was the street Jesus Guy. It was just like I'm. The Best Piter in the world was on and his like the guy. He was fighting against it cut to his interview and the guy was just like. He is no competition to me and I was like that. Guy's going to obliterate this man like his yeah, I mean like I love. What one fighter is just like: Oh yes, O and then the other one is just like. I have not even trained for this fight. I will win so after after he lost that fight the following year in January, he challenges Radio Personality and former child actor Danny bonaduce yeah. What's that kid from home alone, doing he's listening the radio like a a fit that guy I want to fight the kid from hold alone. Give me the kid from Second Hand Lions to Haley Joe Osmond.

I we got to send this to everybody. You're, getting you're getting your age. stufft me over fresh, Prince Carlton biceps. They are pretty big. Thougha yeah sat okay. So who else is he fighting just give me a list ice, so he fights one more guy. Just as another fighter, he loses all of them that actually the Danny one was a draw, so doesn't have a great fighting career. Meanwhile he gets a divorce. It was pretty nasty falls into some financial issues ends up getting his house for closed on and goes into a kind of a bit of a spire in yeah. A bit of a spiral ends up Gosh. I was laughing so I'm out of breath the cartel, not a road user, so and then in October of two thousand and fourteen yeah, he actually shot off one of his fingers and then in in two thousand and nineteen he opens up a car wash in Las Vegas which, on every Wednesday he does autographs, can get out or was in big still yeah yeah. So you go, get your car wash get yourself a hey. You did your honeymoon in Vegas. Did you go? I didn't know it was there. Actually. My honeymoon was before that before the car watch open the COM, he opened that Cosein the last two years yeah I open it.

Would he fight me, I'm sure counte, hey how's, they can say, go all right. I I want a fight I'll, tell you right now I'll fight you with one finger tied down. So it's a fair fact. I cut one of my s e it kind of finger off for the bit. He had a handful of well panful had a handful of legal problems throughout the two thousand, some like vehicle stuff, a couple allegations that ended up being dropped and then he did have to spend a month in jail because he was on probation and he tosas Tive for steroids during that period. So he did do some jail used. Ter Words on probation also use a beproven on probation. What can a boat? Can you not do? wheres the hardest drag still lie: Yeah, that's kind of a serious question we just want to know for when I'm on probation yeah, I'm admitting to a lot of stuff on the podas. I've been maning that I've murdered people and got away with it. Put that out there so and then he he had a few reality TV stints yeah obvious. He had a show in two thousand and eight Callosa Canseco last shot chronicles. You got a show yeah. He got a show about him, trying to make it back into the nil, be from the MS at what like forty seven? It's a long shot guys, but I'm going to go for it so like good, we can use that, but we'll call it last shot and he was on celebrity and prentice ended up leaving early because his father got sick on celebrity apprentice. Yeah, he was on celebrity apprentice. He's met a president yeah, but I'm going to be honest. This all of this pales into the real reason why I brought this guy up. We have ee got through the real reason. Yet one more thing before we Jupati is in a third and is thirty or thirty jumping into another thing. This is a long pea. Second, okay, before we jump it- and this is my favorite quote from him- and his thirty or thirty can ot one of his quotes on the wall yeah. Actually, let's do this one. It is thirrty interview. He called Tommy Lasorda, who was the manager of the dodgers? He seems like the kype Guy who just didn't know what was going on call them a chubby little fat roll. who was the worst Humpty dumpty Pasta, eating more on I've ever satake every, but he just went here'swhat. He did right, he went down to the local bus, stop where middle scores were hanging out. He's i give me your insults come on he water. Now we and they're, like we call this kid humpty dumpty younes, i al right, good goer. What else we got you know. What can you send that to me? I'm, like i have a new titter vile that i would like to i'm literally just get a it's a tweet, so i'll send it directly to you. Did he tweet it? I know somebody quote tweeted him, because it was in his study for thirty interview yeah. I would like to get that as one of those like you know, hobby lobby quotes if we can put that up on. That would be awesome, so he also somewhere after his mob career, got really into it. Is what we're on? Is this a joke? No, he got really into aliens and he was convinced in mossel interviews. He said that the aliens he's been in communication with the aliens and they're trying to teach us time travel, but our bodies aren't. How does it always come to this? How how do you do this? How is it that the whole time i'm like this is a normal episode and in the very and you sneak in some alien stuff dude is to this tis. You got all this o kiting me right now, and he said he said: they've been trying to do. Just have the time travel i'm mad aliens once they were some pigeon bran, humpty dumpties i'll. Tell you that, like what are you talking about, he said, but first he said we have to change our body composition. Our bodies cannot handle time travel with the way they are that's why i've been using steroids for decades. I think that was kind of that was this whole thing was like guys, normal people can't do it. You know he only us naturals. Here's a quote. He said aliens have been trying to teach us how to time travel, but first we have to change our body composition, which we are not willing to do. We've tried with animals and it has failed. I don't know what he means by that he didn't elaborate. We want ireland being what if we try with animal. He later said he later said time travel puts forty two thousand six hundred and fifty one pounds of pressure on human skeleton tressure. Instead of you can detach the human brain from the body and equalize the pressure it could be done, but then it pleats, our science, is totally irrelevant aliens and here's here's my favorite part of of this whole thing is what is today: it is friday, yeah, okay, can we? I can you all look up some flights to vegas for wednesday morning for oce. I've just got some questions. Well, bro wait till year this it is at the time of this recording is october, twenty nine eight. If you're listening to this, i think it's thanksgiving. So how do you thanksgiving? I hope this is benish thanksgiving, okay. Well, this is a blessing tea, but at the time of recording this four days ago, jose canseco was in a plane crash shut up. He was in a play crash and it crashed into the water and he tweeted after this play gras she set from the water. He said in the ocean right now he tweeted flying to new york. This morning. My plane crashed, so i was swimming to my appearance. He had an appearance in new york, he couldn't miss swimming to it yeah, so he crashed to the water and he started swimming piece like all right. All just free. Are you kidding me right out this to the ditch the bilot dishes are, which ways new york. They were like in the water like on the lot sasi think it's that way and to if he s wait. We just put a flare out, but because i don't have time to wait. I know that you regular old humans, we'll just hang out here- is shark bait y, but i'm prime meat down here they're gonna, try to get me first. I got to get out of here. You know which way s new york, cool and then just dives. He goes. He makes a dolphin noise and down he's swimming to his even in new york shut up. What is the rest of the tweets say as i was swimming a light beamed down from space shot up? I was sealions and aliens picked me up and they're dropping me off at my parents at one o'clock today see you guys, then he is on the space craft le the aliens care about my speaking skedule i dove into the water. The aliens were like well, this doesn't match up with this google calendar. I hate that everything with you comes back to aliens. Can i just say it again: are you kidding me right now? Did he make it to a speaking event yeah? He did walking soaking wet just stretched like jose. Why are you just doing wiping all over the sameno? This is evidence. Don't try me of to to ta ra, as he speaking at the same thing, that the blink on at two guy was speaking in a is, is he's just speaking of the american legion hall for like six people who believe in ghosts and aliens. The aliens picked him out of the water yeah, the article the article says. Thankfully his friends were there, and so they picked him out of the water and got him to his appointment on time, but jose blames the aliens. I'm not sure it's unclear to me if jose thinks his friends are aliens if he actually got picked up by alien for if he knows his friends ring a rat. You know, i know you guys are aliens, a disguise he's like bel and that's what didn't make the book in two thousand and five they're like let's e out us to steroids, but don't tell everyone mark becas, i'm alien! Okay, are you kidding me right now? I go four days ago dan i was so happy. Were i delivered to his speaking of it by aliens? That's what we're going with man. That speaking event is a fiddle off.
