This is going to be actually a nanodose in the original spirit of the nanodose, which was a shorter episode. It's going to be just a little taste. Well, something to tide you over on a Thursday. We're doing voicemails. We've got a couple of voicemails we're going to jump into.

And, yeah, Mad Dog, hit the voicemails. Hey, Macrodosing. It's Kirby from Iowa. I'm just got a question for you, guys. If you were forced to join one famous cult, which cult would you choose? And why are you choosing that one? Thanks, guys.

I love the show. I hope to hear what. You guys have to say that. Famous cult. I would go Mormonism. I was just going to say, I don't like the Mormons, but it's the least I'm going to die of the cults. I don't mind the Mormons.

I think they're all nice. You'd be so pretty. They're all, yeah, they're all super attractive. They seem like, I don't know, they're happy people. No Blue Mountains, though. I feel like they mean well. Oh, yeah, good point. Can't drink.

Or drink caffeine? I think they rolled that back. They have, yeah. Yeah, because now they have those weird soda shops. You can bang your mom's friends, though. Oh, true. Zach Wilson Yeah

I'm in Yeah That's that's one for Aaron I think it has to be The most logical answer is Mormonism If we're counting that as cult Which I do Yeah it depends on how we're

Defining cult as well Because there's like a really loose definition I mean there's a specific definition Like the ones that you hear about Like the Heavens Gate Jonestown FLDS Scientology

I would probably do science Oh, yeah, you'll be rich. Yeah, well, that and I want to see, I want to see with the higher-ups, you know what I'm saying? I want to see how much full of shit they are because I know they're full of shit, but I just want to see how much, like, you want to get to like the top levels when you start talking about like aliens and volcanoes. Aliens. Yeah, yeah. Give me the, give me the juicy stuff so I can see how big a crock of shit this actually is. Big T, what do you think? Yeah, Scientology.

No-brainer. Yeah, because it's all rich. cool people. Yeah. Is it all rich, cool people? I think that's like a, that's a pre-rec to get in. Do you think Tom Cruise is cool, though? Yeah, fuck it.

Yeah. Maverick, what you mean? I think he... Well, I don't think... Yeah, maybe not the him. He's a really gifted actor, though. Yeah, he's a great actor. I don't know.

I'm sure he's a weirdo. Yeah, he's a weirdo. That's what I'm saying. I've actually never seen him outside of a couple of missions, possible movies. movies and top gun he was at uh he was at wimbledon yesterday oh really yeah didn't see him i don't know if tom cruise would be like cool he's cool because of being a famous actor but like just talking to him one-on-one well i saw an interview when he was promoting the new top gun and

they were like they were talking about how the plane scenes were real and he's like yeah i have a pilots license uh motorcycle license uh you know he had like 10 different things he could just operate any sort of vehicle. If you have a pilot's license, and you're like an A-list actor, like you're cool. I think he'd be cool to go on. That doesn't make he's not weird. You would probably get to go in a lot of adventures with him.

He's probably always doing something, right? My horseshoe is cool and weird. I don't think you can be cool. Well, I guess you can. You can definitely be cool. You can. Just kidding. I take that back.

I just thought about it. Bad horse shoe. I know. I know. I just had to say it out loud and then I take it back. Bad horseshoe, mad dog. I wish too. I'm sorry. Yeah.

But I don't know. Scientology, like, Leah Remedy turned me off to wanting to get more involved in that. Like, she's so out on it. So before that, you were in, though. Not that I was in, but like how Aryan's saying, like, I want to get it. I think I'd be brainwashed. I've always wanted to do some kind of infiltrating, like, be a Mason just to see. You know what I mean?

Like, a free Mason. Like, we got to be talking about these fucking meetings, though. Like, well, I can't go. Infiltrate the gang, you know? But do you don't, you don't think you've, you don't think you would get you don't think you would get sucked into it you don't think you would start believing their bullshit no strong mind it's too stupid it's just what's this is too stupid like i have a science background like that's what i do in my oftentimes study science like so my methodology for truth

it would have to pass that it would convince me why that methodology is not an accurate representation of reality and that's hard to do without evidence that's true all right next one hey macrosan grew this is eric from chicago also one of uh billy's list guys question i had is so much from twitter and everyone is predicting the downfall

of like human race you know if you're missing it's AI hill gate think it's going to be a pandemic so I was wondering what everyone that thinks the downfall of humanity is going to be besides big teeth thinking of liberals also aaron I'm sorry my daughter to our care. Stay beautiful at the handsome and everyone say thank you.

Okay. Thank you Eric for the question. He's at Aaron. Sorry, what? For his dogs barking in the back. Oh, yeah. So downfall of humanity. What do you think so mean? I mean, for a while it was always going to be nuclear war, right? Yeah. That was like a no-brainer until very, I still think it's nuclear war. Well, that wouldn't be the downfall. Wouldn't that be the result of the downfall? No, but that would lead to the downfall. Like, everyone would be dying. No, but that would already be the down at that point.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I'm saying that would be the catalyst of the downfall. That's how I interpreted the question. Like, what would the downfall be? What caused the nukes? Got you. That's how I interpreted it.

So I'll just say war. That's my answer. Buttons. Buttons. Yeah, yeah. No more buttons. We got to do something about the button. I want to eliminate every giant red button

across the world. I don't know. I still feel like nuclear war is what's going to do. Or it's the most likely. Do you really believe that will ever happen, though? Because, like, we've come close in times that, like, I hesitate to say should have, but, like, seems like it was going to happen. Yeah. And every time everybody eventually is like, you know what, we probably shouldn't do that.

I think it's still. There is never a reason to use a nuke though. Okay, no, no, no. Unless it's just to break up an asterisk. You're misrepresenting what I said. saying situations that got to the point that it seems like it would have happened. Yeah, but then you said, and maybe should have. No, no, no, no, no.

I said, I hesitate to use the word should have. Should have meaning like in the context of this situation, it seems like it would have happened by this point. Gotcha. So it's just luck that we haven't had a massive nuclear war. There's this one guy that everybody, everybody listening to me. should know about this guy. His name's Vasili Archivov. I probably totally mispronounce his last name. Archipov, Vasili Archipov. So he's known as the man who saved the world. Right?

Wait, that's, is that his name? You tell us. I believe it is. Hang on. I might be mistaking him for Stanislav Petrov. Yes. All right, forget that first guy's name. Fuck that guy. this is the guy that you should know Stanislav Petrov so he was a lieutenant colonel in the Soviet air defensive forces and there was a false alarm in 1983 so I'm going to paraphrase

what happened here he saw a bunch of nuclear missiles being fired at Russia from the United States this is at the height of the Cold War and there were protocols that were put in place where he would be notified about it and then he would call his boss who would then in turn launch nuclear

weapons in a counter strike. So back in the Cold War, we had these policies that were set up where it was mutually assured destruction. If one country, the USA or Russia, attack the other with nuclear weapons, then there would be a massive response from the other country that would wipe the first one off the state of the earth. It would be completely gone. And Russia had that as well as the United States. They saw nuclear weapons being fired. They told him, and there's a window. There's a very small window that he had to report that up the chain of command to give them enough time to launch the weapons before the initial strike would have taken away their capability to do that. So in this example, if the U.S. fired like 20 nukes at Russia, they had, I don't know, 20 minutes to figure out, okay, let's launch these weapons because if I don't tell them now, then the nukes are going to arrive and hit us. before we were able to launch our counterstrike against the United States.

That time window came and went and he did not report it because he's like, this has to be a mistake and there's no way that I can just like authorize tens of millions of people to die. I don't feel comfortable doing this. Turns out he was right. It was a false alarm. It was something in the atmosphere that was catching the sunlight, I believe, that was giving their readings a false alarm.

and he just straight up didn't launch nuclear weapons because it was his decision in the moment that, like, I don't want to do this. And if he had launched his weapons, then the U.S. would have launched all our nukes at Russia, wiped them off the face of the earth. We would have all been dead, but we didn't because of one guy named Stanislav Petrov. Thank you. Shout out Stanislav Petrov. Shout out to him. Hashtag. That dude name. He saved the world. I think the downfall is going to be the mismanagement of social media. It is, and it might lead to a nuclear war, but it is just absolutely eroding our brains as human beings.

And if we don't take countermeasures in our children to understand critical thinking and understand deep fakes, that technology get ahead of that kind of stuff in the future it's only going to get worse and it will absolutely collapse our civilization i think the horse is kind of out of the barn on that one too right like with deep fakes starting to and social media it's i mean there was literally a war i think i mentioned it before but like some other small country they they were like fighting another sect because they they all they had for internet because of their service was facebook so they think that Facebook is the internet and so they don't really know about like misinformation and how you can lie and stuff like that and so all the information we're getting was otherizing this

group of people and so they attacked them and so like that's literally the microcosm of what I think is bound to happen if we don't take any kind of measures what about you big tea I think social media plays a lot into what I was going to say which is the fact that just nothing is true anymore. There's just nothing that's just objectively true. And I think both sides of the political aisle do this. It's not just in politics, it's in everything. But it's just nobody, anything can be whatever you want now. There's nothing that that is true. And I think that's a very dangerous precedent to set and that eventually that's going to be a big problem. Agreed. Mad Dogg?

I think it's I kind of agree with the guy that said AI I think we're going to take it too far and then not be able to turn back and it's kind of going to be like the AI turns on us I'm hoping on that I'm hoping on that one though why that's so scary

because it is a creation of us and in order to be an intergalactic species where we're traveling months of stars like we need help we can't do it with just our brains and we need a super processing computer you know, minced with our

biology. I think it'll be a great thing. I think it'll be an amazing thing. So you're saying like you hope that humans are replaced by robots basically? No, I hope we merge. So we're like half human, half robot? Like implanting a super chip into a brain where you're like neural link, neural, neural, neural, nearly connected to like the internet. Like imagine you had all information at your fingertips already in your brain.

as soon as you process a question like it's already going through thousands and thousands of articles and and data points like that that type shit's fire that would be amazing I think that like negates or like that gets rid of the need for like people at that point though I think it's just the next step in the evolutionary chain I think you would keep some some aspects of our emotions right in our nervous system and who knows what could happen but I think uh we're fucking this up I mean when we look at the we're fucking this place up this is a silly a silly way to go about life you you wake up and try to get money to eat like it's silly this is silly that this is a silly this is a silly silly notion of life that or i mean climate change but that was yeah not as fun

not as fun talk about no um i think the person that suggested artificial intelligence i think he said Elon Musk who is not buying Twitter by the way yeah not buying Twitter victory lap for your boy I told you he wasn't going to buy I knew it was a bluff. Why isn't he? What did you say? He's saying that Twitter is a material breach of their agreement, probably something to do with like the data of or not providing enough data as it relates to fake accounts

or spam accounts, things like that. But the reality is I don't think Elon Musk was ever going to buy it. I knew from the start. Like he just, he gets these ideas and he likes to be relevant. He likes to be talked about. And I don't think it was ever his intention. Well, he probably put all those like crazy stipulations in there that he knew they couldn't meet.

Right. So that then he could say, oh, you didn't honor your end of the contract. And then he knew he didn't have to buy it. Right. Well, he got all the clout of saying he was going to buy it without having to do it. And now a ton of people are talking about him not buying it. Yep. So is that all, like I could say right now, it is my intention to buy Twitter.

And then I'll get out of cloud from it. I guess you probably have to have the funds. Yeah, you need to, you need to back him. I also saw that he might lose a billion dollars on it. Really? Yeah. because he entered into a contract with him oh i thought you meant just because he bought a ton of stock before that and it tanked the stock i mean he that probably remains to be seen like what his his

his stock transactions were because if he bought a lot of stock and then afterwards announced his intentions and then the price went up and then he sold a bunch that's that's illegal so i don't know who knows what he actually did with those transactions but i i i didn't think that he was ever going to buy I think he just, he wanted to talk about buying it. That's fair. All right. One more. One more.

I'm not for those and crew. It's Will from New York. So, we all know that I'm not the deep passion for rest stops. And so my question for you guys is, what is a hobby or something you collect or places you want to go? that you are interested like Mad Dog with the rest of ups. For example, I have a dream that I might be able to try every dollar pizza slice in New York Fish before they're all shut down due to buy an inflation, shout out big tea. Anyway, yeah, so places you want to go, things you want to do,

items you collect, anything interesting, you might have. have a beautiful Patty and Aryan and rest of you guys oh and rest of peace my fellow William Billy football love you go

okay so the question is what would you want to do like everything of yeah check everything off a list I think I'm sure Aryan has more but he and I have one that's the same yeah I was just saying you guys have one yeah you do go to all 30

the baseball center yeah baseball ballparks definitely fire yeah i'm with that one you're trying to do it in like one season oh yeah a couple months yeah i just eventually want to get to all of them but make a make a make it a road trip that'd be a fun little road trip man that'd be a long road trip be a very long road trip well so what was the question i see i could not hear anything he was saying yeah no uh it's if you wanted to like go to everything of one thing or like how i love rest stops Like, I want to go to every rest stop. Like, what of everything would you want to go to?

Oh. Arian would start out doing a road trip. And then after he went to, like, Seattle, San Francisco, Oakland, he just, he just ship his car around to all the different, all the different ballparks he was flying into. Hey, man, I was tired of drive a dog, you know, my bumper. But I think, I think, I think mine would be, I want to have a glass of wine in every country. In the world. In the world. That'd be dope.

I mean, are we doing, like, realistic ones or there's just far-fetched ones? It can be either way. So how would be-that-that-how many countries is that? There's like 170-something. I don't know exactly. Are you including, like, United Arab Emirates and- Give me that. Yeah. Saudi Arabia.

I don't know if you can have wine. Well, they don't allow you to drink? No. Yeah, not Qatar. I think that. banned alcohol for the that would be even better if I can have a glass of wine in a place I can't have it that'd be amazing they they punish pretty severely over there that's that those will be the last couple ones that I do that'll be the last one like yeah yeah I think that you're allowed

to have alcohol in guitar if it's like on a certain type of resort or in a certain type of hotel in a designated area but it's it's very yeah you got thread the needle on that one I will announce right now when I go to Qatar for the World Cup I will not be drinking alcohol while I'm there I just I'd just rather stay away from that mess entirely are you actually going I believe so yeah so alcohol is available only at licensed hotel restaurants and bars and ex-patriots living in Qatar can obtain alcohol on a permit system it still sounds a little dicey

wait I didn't know that you're going going to the World Cup? I believe that I am. I think Donnie and I are going. Oh, that's sick. Are you going to do MDMA? No, absolutely not. Absolutely not.

I feel like they would kill you. Yeah. You have to let us know how Qatar is. I will. I'm like, I'm struggling with it a little bit because I've done a lot of research recently into what's been going on

and how they've built those stadiums. A lot of bad shit. Yeah. I don't know if we talked about this on on macrodosing, but I think. But you, want to go to the white house i mean 6500 people have died building the stadiums for the world cup 6500 wait just building them yes and it was slave labor at that yeah yeah like people are

being worked to death every single day because they're out in the sun they don't have water they don't get breaks they live in cramped conditions a lot of times they get their passports confiscated so they can't leave even if they wanted to they don't get paid the same amount that they were told they were going to get paid it's a pretty bad deal over there so the fact that they ever got it in the first place is like mind boggling it's i mean it's not because fifa's the most corrupt organization in the world but it's insane that they got the world to put it somewhere that you can't play it when you're supposed to because it's 130 degrees somewhere that like the human rights violations are i mean you can't have a one-night stand you can't if you go over there

and you're there for the World Cup I mean soccer fans like to fuck breaking news they're going to try to fuck and it's against the law and you'll be thrown in jail do you think that's going to happen you can't have sex

yeah unless it's with your husband or wife they've said that they will be enforcing that law how how do I go know I don't know I don't know I I don't know how it's I'm sure some people get caught I'm sure some people probably get away with it too but they've said that yeah this is the law like i guess if you walk into a hotel with like a woman they could

like demand to see that you're married or something yeah or you could have just like a pop-up marriage stand in the hotel that's crazy yeah so i don't know i'm wrestling with a little bit because it's obviously not a good place to go and it should not have the world cup right now on the other hand if the lads beat england yeah it'd be great to be there it would be an amazing time That game's going to rock. Yeah. What if we just won the World Cup? Be fucking sick.

I'm counting on it. It's coming home. It'd be better to win it here. I agree. But beggars can't be choos. Let's get to the semifinals this time and then we'll win it in 20s. It's a build on, yeah. The winners can't even pop champagne in the locker room.

It's a good point. No. Yeah, I don't know. I don't think they can. It's like in the NCAA when you can't pop champagne. Is it drinking canteens of water afterwards? Yeah. It'll be that, what is it, liquid death?

Yeah. Shotgunning liquid death Yeah I feel like we need to win it for that reason because we're the country that would push that We'll be like Try to try to fuck with us Yeah

I agree Yes we would be like Do something about it Yeah Although if you were on the U.S. Soccer team Would you win the World Cup If it meant

Becoming a political prisoner For I don't know Maybe 20 years Because you got drunk afterwards they're not going to do that I would make that bargain but I guess I'm just selfless I guess I'm just too much of a patriot

they're not going to do that not to us they might if you know Brazil wins it and then gets brazen like what's Brazil going to do but like we will it will be a bad decision

for you to do that to us we have a nuke we have many many nukes too many nukes that's how the world ends Qatar takes the United States men's soccer team hostage for drinking in celebration

after the World Cup we launch an all-out nuclear blitz against Qatar and then boom next thing you know a nuclear winner okay that does it for nanodosing we will see you guys next Tuesday

for another soad of macro dosing and the return of one Billy football we got to do a big one we'll see you then love you guys Thank you.
