Starting point is 00:00:28 Right? A couple weeks away from Halloween. already thinking about getting there's pumpkins everywhere. Don't cut them too early because I've cut some pumpkins early and you set them out. And they look almost better after the couple of weeks because they've fallen down on inside themselves and the mold starts growing out of it. So it's almost a double Halloween effect. First, it's the beautiful pumpkin carved with the face and then smushed sitting on the front porch with mold growing on it.
Starting point is 00:01:02 It looks great. Yes, it does. And look, there's Halloween displays going up all over everybody's neighborhood now. They're coming up more and more, and you see them. They've got the giant spiders and the giant...
Starting point is 00:01:23 There's one in our neighborhood that has the Peanuts gang that's a Halloween thing with the giant pumpkin. And then there's a giant spider around the corner. And then somebody's got their spider webs in the yard with the witch, and everybody enjoys the witch flying, smashing into the tree display in the front yard and the gravestones everywhere.
Starting point is 00:01:49 Well, in Ohio, there's a Halloween display in a neighborhood that has made people feel a little scared. Oh, no. In this story, the little girl says she was frightened by the display. I thought they were real people. Yeah, real people. They were hanging upside down from a tree. And there's a person leaning upside down with a knife coming out. I was a little nervous.
Starting point is 00:02:26 Stop it. It's a Halloween display. Of course you were a little frightened. That's what it's supposed to do. But it's almost a block from an element. school. This house was, when I was going to elementary school, I would love to have this house on the way to school.
Starting point is 00:02:42 But of course, in today's world, parents are saying it's a little graphic close to an elementary school. Is it? Is it? No. No, it is not. No, it is not. Stop it.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Now, what I like is that the family says, well, we haven't any complaints. I don't know what to tell you. We're fine. I've got a two-year-old and a special needs teenager. They seem to be good with it. And asked if they would take it down. They were like,
Starting point is 00:03:18 we might tone it down maybe if we thought it was actually, you know, scaring people beyond the Halloween scared. But no, no, we're not. We're not doing that. One lady, though, the lady that has the little daughter that was a little too scared on the way to school, a little too upset. Whenever it was the daughter or the mom that got a little too upset over the display, she took a picture and emailed it to the city and wanted this display taken down. I need this display taken down, doggone it. No
Starting point is 00:04:03 The city said There's nothing we can do about it It's their property Freedom of Expression Move on with your life Okay It's a Halloween Display in the front yard
Starting point is 00:04:17 Now there is a possibility That you could Cover your daughter's eyes And drive her to school So she didn't see it You could Walk your daughter's eyes your daughter to school and go another way.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Or you could look at it and say, honey, it's just a Halloween display. Kind of scary, isn't it? Yep, but it's pretty funny how that at. Look, see, not real. Look, see, not real. But then in another Ohio town, people mistook a murdered woman
Starting point is 00:04:59 hanging from a fence as a Halloween decoration. It's not funny at all. It's not funny at all. Except, I mean, you see it all the time, right? And so this, apparently this lady, this horrible thing happened to her, and she was trying to escape wherever she was at. And she tried to climb over this fence, and it had the three wires of the barbed wire along the top, and she got hung up on that. So she ended up dying, hanging from this fence. and people thought it was a Halloween decoration.
Starting point is 00:05:38 Why do they have that? I don't know why they put the Halloween decoration back there. Maybe because it's not real. I mean, it's not a real Halloween display. It's a real human. So she was pretty horrible, actually. So you may, you know, it's okay to take a double take maybe at the Halloween displays and say, real or not real.
Starting point is 00:06:00 We can play that game with the family. You can play that game with the kids, actually. Real or not real on the Halloween displays. That's my new game the rest of the year. Real or not real? If it's real, call the authorities. However, in this particular town of Ohio, what is the name of this town? God-awful Ohio town.
Starting point is 00:06:21 Yeah, you heard me. God-awful Ohio town. Why people want to live in that state. That'll start a war now. People will be all mad at me that live in Ohio. I got it. You live in Ohio. You love your state.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Whatever. So this small town has now have a serial. They actually have a sooty killer going on because this lady is a string of suspicious deaths and disappearances of six local women. And four of the vanished were found dead over the past year. So they're saying, you know, it's definitely leading to a serial killer. It's raising suspicions that there's a serial killer, you think? Now, of course, they say this particular murder, completely unrelated to the suspicious deaths. Completely.
Starting point is 00:07:21 This has nothing to do with the other missing women and the other four that were vanished and now found dead. This one here doesn't, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, doesn't completely. completely unrelated. And, you know, Halloween is a mind game, right? I mean, that's all it is. It's a mind game. You try to have, you know, you try to get people to think that something is scary. Everybody goes to the horror houses and the themes and you want to be scared out of your mind.
Starting point is 00:07:58 And you want to, you want to, it's kind of release of being scared and then realizing, oh, my gosh, it's not real. So I don't have to be scared and it's a wonderful thing, right? It's a brain thing. And then I'm reading this article, an interview from Ray Kurzweil. And he is the Google guy, right? The Google futurist. And he's made, according to this article, he's made 147 predictions since the 1990s. 150 of them turned out to be true.
Starting point is 00:08:29 Another 12 turned out to be essentially correct. And he said, that's an 86% accuracy rate. And the others, he's not saying are completely wrong. wrong. They just have not happened yet. Right? So I'm reading this article about nanobots and the brain, and it is fascinating. This is Ray Kurzweil, all right? Brain-to-brain communication. This will deliver a new level of human intimacy where you can truly know what your lover, friend, or child is feeling, intimacy far beyond what we experience today by mere human conversation. Forget email, texting, phone calls, you'll be able to send your thoughts to someone simply by thinking them.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Google on the brain. You'll have the ability to know anything you desire at the moment you want to know it. You'll have the access to the world's information at the tip of your neurons. You'll be able to calculate complex math equations in seconds. You'll be able to navigate the streets of any cities intuitively, and you'll be able to hop into a fighter jet and fly it perfectly. You'll be able to speak and translate any language effortlessly. on the brain. Scalable intelligence. Imagine that you're in a bind. We need to solve a problem.
Starting point is 00:09:43 You'll be able to scale up the computational power of your brain on demand, 10 times or a thousand times. Same way you use the algorithm today on the Amazon web servers. Living in a virtual world, your brains can truly connect at high bandwidth. You'll be able to bypass current sensory organs, eyes, ears touch, point out the brain's perception of reality can be driven completely by gaming engine. It's a virtual world. Okay? Unbelievable. I mean, it's, you'll have the avatar, you'll have the extended immune system.
Starting point is 00:10:23 I mean, we already have, you know, Ray talks about the intelligent biological devices, the size of blood cells that kill disease. and we have them in our body already, Ray T cells, right? They can recognize an enemy and attack it. But they don't work on cancer, retroviruses. In the future, the nanorobots are going to be able to communicate wirelessly, download software when new pathogens arrives, and attack cancer, cancer stem cells, bacteria, viruses, disease agents.
Starting point is 00:10:55 They can also work on metabolic diseases like diabetes. They can also maintain healthy levels of everything you need in the blood, Nutrients basically repair and eventually replace damaged organs. Huh? Come on. Come on. Downloadable expertise. Expand and searchable memories.
Starting point is 00:11:20 A higher order of existence. Talks about how connected neocortex will bring humanity to a higher order of existence and complexity. Expanding our palette for emotion. motion, art, humor, creativity, expression, and uniqueness. We're going to be funnier. We're going to be sexier. We're going to be better in expressing loving sentiment. We're going to add more levels to the hierarchy of the brain modules and create deeper levels of expression.
Starting point is 00:11:48 People will be able to very deeply explore some particular type of music in far greater degree than we can today. And according to Ray, it'll lead to far greater individuality, not less. So while this future may sound fanciful to many, let's remember that exponential technologies are deceptive, right? So remember that most of these fields of the technical progress, they double every 18 months. And look at what's happened now. Go back 18 months and then the previous 18 months and see where we were and where we are now. Ray says this, some of this will be happening by 2030 and 15 years, right? We're going to send in the 2030s.
Starting point is 00:12:43 We're going to ascend nanobots into the brain, provide full immersion virtual reality from within the nervous system, and connect our neocortex to the cloud. Just like how we can wirelessly expand our power of our smartphones. In the cloud today, we'll be able to expand our neocortex. in the cloud. Wow. I mean, that's almost...
Starting point is 00:13:12 These are some of the things that we've talked about that, you know, that's going to happen. Thinking that really it's not going to happen or thinking that it's going to happen, you know, a hundred years from now. Ray's talking 15 years, 20 years from now. Unbelievable. Your children are going to be involved in this. Have them prepared. Try, and I don't know how to do it. That's for sure.
Starting point is 00:13:39 I guess you need to know who you are and what you are and what you believe in. Because that's what he's talking about. You know, if this future becomes reality, connected humans are going to change everything, and we need to discuss the implications in order to make the right decisions now so that you're prepared for the future. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:03 You talk about being on a higher level. there will be some on a higher level and there's going to be others that I ain't going to be so high looking because it'll be a wonderful thing when I can plug into the cloud and know anything but it's a matter of being able to decide whether that anything is actually something or if you're being fed jargon from the cloud so who controls that cloud that's another side of the argument. And then living in a
Starting point is 00:14:37 going between virtual and real world and immersing yourself into everyone everyone's going to be immersed into this I don't even know
Starting point is 00:14:47 what you would call it it's not going to be a virtual world but it's not going to be a reality either. It's going to be the new world Jeff. It's a new world and everything will be beautiful
Starting point is 00:14:56 and everyone will be all seeing and all knowing. Oh, oh okay well then everything will be fine then never mind this is the jeff fisher show on the blaze radio network
Starting point is 00:15:09 russia iran cuba the obama way is buy them off placate them and now they're all joining forces in syria to fight against our interest to fight against the rebels that we've half-heartedly back to create their own reality in that country other countries other allies and other enemies will see this and say
