Starting point is 00:00:00 pkn 379 we're back i'm feeling good again happy about that very nice you you look the colors back in your face because you looked grim at one point i felt so bad i was just like dick carry the show i'll get to sit here there was a couple times where i could tell like you would give off your normal body language of you wanting to say something. And then I could see just your internal monologue go, who even cares? You know what? I don't even want to open my mouth to say anything because that might lead to a coughing spree.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Oh, it was rough. Yeah, when it got to four hours, I was like, well, that's the show. Woody looks so miserable. You you were you were great like the first hour for sure but it was like your painkillers or something were wearing off and like by the end you were just like i need a nap did you guys know that i didn't make the show live saturday morning did you guys catch that yeah i i caught it i didn't catch it till after the fact um i'm your phil uh i'm the one who answers all my dms so like i i they know and and i i want them to anyways you know anything
Starting point is 00:01:13 like y'all dm me um but i saw it but the problem was my sleep schedule on the new routine means that i am it's it's it's AM and PM is switched. That's simple enough. I want to circle back to the routine because I'm very curious about that. But, yeah, so I have an alarm so that I don't forget. And the alarm went off. I set it to public. And I'm – it's inexcusable that I didn't test it.
Starting point is 00:01:41 I usually test it. But either I didn't click save, you know, I just set it to public and stopped or I did click save and it didn't work. But you need to test and make sure that it actually happened because sometimes it doesn't. And that's where I fouled up. Somebody wrote me on Facebook who's just, I don't know how we became Facebook friends. I didn't recognize the name. And he's like, hey man, I don't know if you know, but you didn't make the show live and i'm like so i check and i'm like oh my god you're right i fixed it my bad
Starting point is 00:02:09 he's like yeah um better stay off reddit have a good mental health day jesus um yeah my am and pm are switched or i would have gotten that message to you earlier i i i don't apologize but um because that you know i'm just living my life but you haven't been full on switched for many months now you at least i don't think so you switched the bird you inverted the bird so so you are back on the exercise routine full force is that what I'm hearing? I wanted to go back into more of a Spartan program where we get up at like 5, 6 p.m. in the afternoon because that way I can always still do this. But at the same time, it allows me to hit the gym at like 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. somewhere in that
Starting point is 00:02:59 little quadrant when no one else is there. I really like having the place to myself. little quadrant when no one else is there. I really like having the place to myself. It also makes it completely removes a lot of temptations in life because everything's closed when you live that lifestyle. There's nowhere to get a snack.
Starting point is 00:03:15 When you wake up at 6 p.m., you're like, oh, let's get breakfast going. I'm cooking all my meals anyway. I showed you that venison the other day. That shit's delicious. Yeah, it looks good. I really like the venison. It was ground beef when you showed it to us, right? It was 3% ground beef
Starting point is 00:03:31 in the venison. I think that's just so it doesn't fall apart. I think it's ground venison. I didn't describe it right. Yeah, just for people to understand. It looked like ground beef. I'd never seen 3% ground beef added into ground venison. I hadn't either. Look, I'm either guessing it's for the sake of composition because it needs some fat because venison is crazy lean.
Starting point is 00:03:54 Or maybe it's some sort of fucking health guideline or something. I have no idea. But I had never seen it before. But this fancy grocery store will deliver to me. They deliver from 50 minutes away. Like when I lived in peach tree city, um, for like three, four months, like two years ago, like when my whole probation nonsense and pretrial and everything before I settled down, um, I was using that grocery store cause that's where I lived. They somehow Instacart like has a bug in their system or something like that. Cause for a $1 tip, this poor woman has to drive
Starting point is 00:04:27 for 45 minutes each way to bring my groceries. And she has to come no matter what I order. I order firewood. She can't abandon the trip? It's her job. How much of the tips you're having to tip this woman? It's built in. It's super expensive, I'm sure, because of distance, right? No, it's not.
Starting point is 00:04:46 There's no consideration to distance on the price I pay. So I pay a slight markup. It's like 3% to 7% depending on the item, which is like nothing. You don't notice it. It's like tax. And then I'm like a member, so I get most of the fees are waived. So I end up paying like a small upcharge. It's basically what gasoline would have cost to drive an hour and a half.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Yeah, and you save all your time and your effort. Yeah, I ordered my entire Thanksgiving just now, and she delivered it from 50 minutes away. And I would like to ask her what she's making because I'm shocked they fucking delivered it. Are you deep frying a turkey again this year in the big old peanut oil pot. I am. I am not skipping Thanksgiving this year. I'm doing it.
Starting point is 00:05:30 I'm going to do it. I guess it's Wednesday, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, so for those of you listening,
Starting point is 00:05:35 we're doing a Monday PKN, get all that extra value from your, your patronage and a Tuesday PKA. You get all that extra value from your we're doing tuesday pka that's good to know yeah yeah yeah see i like to yeah see last night i could have been like remember tomorrow's pkn the next day's pka but i wanted to get thanked twice for reminding i did thank him yeah yeah i remember i thank you intentionally because i never want you to be like sometimes i don't tell people things because i don't want to infantilize them.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Like, Kyle, don't forget to zip your zipper. Fuck you, Woody. I wasn't going to. I like it cold. So anyway, yeah, I'm always like thank you because I want you to know it's okay to tell me. No, I feel you. yeah i'm always like thank you because i want you to know it's okay to tell me i know i feel you i read that loud and clear when you said thank you because it's like he probably knew but he knows that there's a future where he might not know and he wants me to always have that reminder in there
Starting point is 00:06:34 one way or another and and like to me i like um i don't know with my hundred dollar phone you know old man kyle apparently um but i got like the Google reminders for like everything. And so like, I don't know, everything's integrated. So when I go into Insta, if I go into, um, like, um, Airbnb, for example, and reserve a place for next week, it just gets integrated into my calendar and everything and reminders get set. And then I don't know, I don't even know how it got in there. I think it's because we're using our Gmail accounts to access those other apps, and now it's all seamless. But it's like, God damn it, Airbnb.
Starting point is 00:07:12 Why are you ratting me out to Google? I don't even know about this little trip. I'm just on the down low. But, yeah, I haven't gone. I'll tell you in private more about the whole workout thing. But yeah, this is going to be fun. It's going to be fun to kick. Because I had to go like... I need to be private. I need to explain in private. But we get to go and have fun
Starting point is 00:07:40 again, basically. Good. Cool. So you're going to continue to... Here you go. are you already hitting the gym hard or is that coming soon oh yeah i'm already hitting the gym hard um me too but um but but adding a bunch of other stuff um like like like probably gonna my diet program is gonna be almost identical to last time it's just it's it's really a matter of where where i start out with my calories i'm probably eating about 2800 a day right now and i'm sitting at about 194 pounds 195 somewhere in there um thanksgiving i'll tack on a little bit to that that's a pound you earn i think if i'm sorry no i'm mostly done um i think that if derrick
Starting point is 00:08:20 were to see my diet from like say the spring when I lost all that weight, he'd tell me I ate like a girl and didn't do it right. So this time I'm doing it with a little more calories, but I'm starting from a lower weight too. So I don't have quite as much, like I I'm, I'm over 20 pounds lighter than I was a year ago. Yeah. So I don't have quite as much, you know, it's okay to lose slower so so it's interesting um like dialing in those calories um and um the only way you can do that is with a scale and by eating food right and like figuring out where your body is unless you're going to do one of those like tests i did for you put the mask on and everything i guess that that thing was cheap i mean you might
Starting point is 00:09:02 enjoy i'm telling what's really cool to me is i've got all this documentation like like like and i've got so many of them like like and it's all in my like email every now and then i stumble upon my stuff and i'm like oh yeah look at this i'm like looking at stuff like bone density and like body fat percentage and lean muscle mass and like like the whole chart it's neat to have that shit like charted out it out. My resistance to it is not a good reason. I prefer not to know reality and assume that I'm fucking spectacular. My bone density, probably awesome as far as I know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:36 My CO2 max, I imagine. Whatever the best is. I don't know. Right? My body fat? It can't be over 7 or 8. What if I get these things? When it's 7 or 8, you have cravings
Starting point is 00:09:55 like a pregnant woman. You're actively dying. I know what 7 looks like if this ain't it. There was one night when I woke up and I was starving because I went to bed hungry. yeah i know what seven looks like if this ain't it there was but uh there was one night when i was i was i was asleep i woke up and i was starving because i went to bed hungry and uh i i for some reason do you know what is it suet is that the is that congealed fat it's like congealed goose fat
Starting point is 00:10:17 maybe some kind of fat yeah somehow i woke up with a craving for congealed goose fat that's starving i woke up and i thought about it and i thought about like like that eskimo shit how they had like that that blubber that they've got and they met and they talk about how like how incredibly like calorie dense it is and like i was craving a hunk of fat because my butt my body was saying eat. You might be pregnant. I would take a test. I could drink 10 ounces of olive oil. Of all the tests you took, were there any pregnancy tests involved at all because these cravings are
Starting point is 00:10:53 implicated? I take the morning after pill at least once a week just to be sure. Just to be extra sure. What is that? A bunch of estrogen? What is a morning after pill? It just gives me diarrhea i'm not sure bloody it triggers a it triggers a period so i would imagine that it is um is definitely some sort of hormonal progestin progesterone or progestin progestin i actually don't know this word okay yeah it's definitely some kind of estrogen hormone. Some girls can't take it. It fucks them up.
Starting point is 00:11:27 Wait, there's another word I don't know. Levonor gestrel, which is a type of progestin. That could even be a brand name. I don't really know. All I know for sure is it triggers a period and saves the day.
Starting point is 00:11:43 There's also an abortion pill, though, which is a different thing. Because know saves the day there's also an abortion pill though um which is a different thing because it would be a longer term thing right yeah so so the abortion pill is like 500 in georgia and um i think it works for like several weeks into pregnancy not in texas it doesn't um actually dark web texas i don't know what texas i think they might have undid that but i'm not sure i don't think they undid it i think they added a couple more states and they're working on it in mind um so uh i've been outsourced i've been outsourcing all of my abortion all my abortions like i got a guy now that'll be your new reason for moving he's uh he he's he's uh he's just moonlighting
Starting point is 00:12:26 in the abortion game he normally cleans pools but he's got all the right gear so you got a vet it's like that seinfeld where kramer goes to the vet because he does because he doesn't want to go to the hospital because he thinks there's a pig man experiment going on he's been drinking out of the out of the toilet bowl of course not what are you sick that's a good one i've been watching so much seinfeld there's been like a background show recently that like i put it on while i was doing something just earlier today in my living room my wife was like i can't handle seinfeld right now i can't handle anymore and same with the with curb like i i'm really enjoying it i'm into season three now and that's like all new stuff for me but like it's so viscerally uncomfortable sometimes the
Starting point is 00:13:13 situations they get put i love it oh the the all of his conversations with ted danson surrounding that shirt and everything it's just so uncomfortable the piece of shit like i bet like like like talking about the real person or well see the thing is he plays himself but i understand that he plays a version of himself that's that's fictional um but that is that guy is an asshole is what i mean ted dancing in the show is an asshole he is he's always picking fights well and he's always like i don't want to anything, but later on he like does some like shitty stuff to Larry. It's kind of a major show point, but I like that show a lot. There's a new season coming out right now.
Starting point is 00:13:53 I was going to start it the other day, but my HBO was being like shitty and it just didn't want to load it up. So I wouldn't watch something else. I'm out of shows. I'm out of shows because Yellowstone is debuting right now. Like new season is happening. American Horror Story is about aliens and you know how i feel about that and um and i've watched everything else um i wish i could discover another show like midnight mass that that would um you know catch my interest and i wish that maybe like some of our like
Starting point is 00:14:20 gold standard tentpole favorite shows would get a would get a season going like ozark yeah it's been way too long that's a great one yeah ozark it's been forever um i know you guys i don't think you guys watched that kingdom of heaven show like i our kingdom of see i've forgotten the fucking name of the show the viking show king the viking show i watched a couple seasons of that and then i fell off it with interest you know what i'm looking really forward to yeah the boys the amazon i was gonna say that bad superheroes okay i still haven't seen season two it's good oh season two's good it's just my is it better than one like it definitely didn't fall off um i liked it i i've seen all of it and i like it all um yeah i think
Starting point is 00:15:01 i was re-watching some of the highlights recently i do that on youtube a lot i think that like um girls get it done girls get it done oh that's i love they're mocking it like yeah so i'm trying to talk about it without spoiling it but in the marvel world there was a little scene where all the girls got together and carried the Infinity Gauntlet across the battlefield. And it was kind of contrived. And a lot of people put a lot of emphasis on the fact that they gave lip service to girls when it didn't happen organically or naturally. Okay. Well, in the boys, they're like hands on hips, Peter Pan.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Girls, get it done. like mocking this idea that that you know they would do that lip service and uh then at one point organically and naturally a bunch of girls do get something done and the guy's like girls get it done and it was really good you i like it i'm pretty sure i like how violent the show is um that was the selling point yeah i like the violence is the selling point to me um the fact that um you know they're they're taking the standard superhero archetypes of batman and superman and all the others aquaman like like you've clearly got those guys there and you're just like yeah maybe batman's just a just a real fiend of a creep you know he
Starting point is 00:16:26 does just it's dark nor or something nor oh he is not batman he's their version of batman right he's the he's the cloned version of captain united states or whatever right okay i felt like he sort of filled that archetype and sort of like the superhero structure of like the masked guy. He's a very silent Superman is what he is. That's fair. But he doesn't show that he can fly. Like normally he doesn't fly around and do the Superman stuff. He sort of like keeps it down low. He has the best outfit of the whole team.
Starting point is 00:16:57 I don't know. Fucking Captain. What's his name? See, it's been too long. The main Captain guy, his outfit doesn't blow me away. I like Homelander's outfit. He's got the red white and blue baby you can't beat that i like the exploitive outfit on the blonde chick what's her name star light yeah i like the dirty outfit yeah before before before they classed it up they they put her in like smaller and smaller camel toe outfits and i'm like i'm here for it yes this is good that's a girl who needs half her ass hanging out all the time if she's going to be on this show yeah her boyfriend
Starting point is 00:17:31 i'm ready for him to die am i the only one who's just tired of like the everyman character who's just always in the fucking way i there are a handful of everyman characters and i'm like how have they lived this long all right so so the so the tough guy that's played by carl urban the that's always gruff and shit like him i like i could watch a show about him okay he's like a side character it's it's it's a show about the nerdy dude who's like wants who's fucking starlight and i need him to get like some radioactive spider bites or something so that he can get in the game. Who's the SNL actor? Is it Pete Davidson or something? Yeah, he's dating
Starting point is 00:18:07 Kim Kardashian now. Prior to that, he dated... Kate Beckinsale. Is that right? I'm going for the smaller... Ariana Grande. Ariana Grande is who I was going for. Yeah, that's the other one. All butthole eyes gets it done.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Dude, that guy. I think they should really do a parallel yeah that can see doesn't she like all eyes gets it done dude that guy and it's so that the i think they should really do a parallel with that q whatever name and just admit that he has no reason to be dating like the most eligible girls in this universe but somehow keeps landing them yeah it doesn't well i mean remember how um back to seinfeld remember george would always have this hot girlfriends and it was like, wow, wait a minute. This is just terrible casting. But then you remember
Starting point is 00:18:49 the only thing they care about is the laugh on the show. So they're just like, I'm sure at some point they were like, but would George really be dating her? And they're like, it's funny. Yeah. She's funny. Would he be getting any of...
Starting point is 00:19:04 And it's funny because it's him the whole show bitching and moaning about it and like he george compared to a normal man is absolutely slaying he's the whole show and it's just like he's comparing himself to jerry who just falls ass backwards into like models models because he's on like letterman and shit that's what you have to keep in mind it's it's easy to let that slip your mind. In the TV show Seinfeld, Jerry Seinfeld is an actual celebrity. This is a guy who's on The Tonight Show every three months or something like that and doing these big gigs and getting paid to go places and do appearances and stuff. And they just make no mention of that, really.
Starting point is 00:19:41 It's just kind of in the background. They never really talk about just how much money Jerry's's making i think one time like like maybe kramer looked at the check and he was like what you you're not worth this you're not this funny jerry this changes things where he like gets upset that he knows jerry makes so much money i can't think of you to say anymore k Kramer made money every so often too, right? Didn't he have big ideas? He always had big ideas. He would get
Starting point is 00:20:09 some attorney named Jackson to join his lawsuits. Jackie Robinson or some stupid joke name. Where he'd burn himself. They made fun of the coffee thing in the 90s remember when
Starting point is 00:20:26 kramer was so outrageous the cigarettes had yeah the cigarettes age his face and so they're gonna sue the tobacco company the tobacco company is like uh no no it was another one hey there were so many lawsuits like this and kramer would always botch the lawsuit just when jackie was about to like clean out whoever it was like like um one of them they were gonna they were gonna give him like a lifetime supply of the coffee like anytime he could just walk into a starbucks and like get his free coffee or whatever it was plus like a million dollars and they're like well first of all for the rest of your life hey coffee's on us and and kramer's just like oh you got a deal done they're just like
Starting point is 00:21:01 who the hell told you to accept the free coffee? Who the hell wants free coffee? I could have given you free coffee. Embarrassing, humiliating, ridiculous. I've never been so humiliated. Never been so humiliated? Yeah, that's a little bit too topical to be funny. So can some of the Steinbrenner stuff.
Starting point is 00:21:26 I've been trying to get like um younger people into the show you know like the people i date and uh because they don't they don't know anything about the people much much younger people yeah okay epstein yeah i mean like like like like these girls were born after the fucking show started i mean ended so it's like they don't know. So it's like, they don't know anything about this. They don't know who fucking Jerry Seinfeld is. You were born 12 years ago. Well, I mean, look. People are owing kids.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Putting all my business out there. Throw me under the bus. But yeah, trying to. But then something will happen. They're like, they don't say it, but I know they're thinking it like, like why don't they just text each other? Like, like, like this is, this is a land before the cell phone. Yes.
Starting point is 00:22:13 It lends itself to much more silly plots with no cell phone. You can have a lot more fun when there isn't one of these, these, these ruin things, these ruin, because like for, for, for stories to be interesting, there has to be drama and this solves so much fucking drama like like this thing is magical like we oh yeah we carry these fuckers around in our pockets like they're not fucking magic wands but they do everything they're so goddamn powerful right now and i'm i'm not talking about like a cpu or a gpu like they're so powerful like with entire... The connection is powerful.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Yeah. Being connected is powerful. All the information that you have and all the connectivity and the communication and the things that it can do. It's incredible. Like half the little conversations in the coffee shop, the little riffing with Jerry and George, it wouldn't work anymore.
Starting point is 00:22:59 No. Because George would be like, ha-ha, there's no Galapagos turtle in New York or whatever the fuck. I have a friend. He's a little bit older than me and he often says things that are wildly untrue.
Starting point is 00:23:13 He's like, oh, this wind will keep us warm tonight because of the friction between the air molecules. It'll warm it up. And I'm like, that's horseshit. Is the wind exceeding the speed of sound do you really think it's warming us up you know i have the whole internet in my pocket and i can fact check you yeah have you ever been out in the wind and you're just too hot because of all the friction
Starting point is 00:23:38 what a retard you said do you not have enough people calling you on your shit in your life you're lucky to have me quite frankly like that's you just have to people calling you on your shit in your life? You're lucky to have me, quite frankly. You just have to sometimes go, oh, that's interesting. I never do that. That's not a service I provide. We slept next to a six-foot-wide creek, and he's like, this is going to keep us cold. I'm like, oh, this one's cold. No, it's not.
Starting point is 00:24:02 That water is warmer than the air. I grew up on an island. This is something. That will not make us cold. It's not that's that water is warmer than the air i was i grew up on an island like this is something like that will not make us cold it's not going to do a thing and and again i was like you know i've got the internet you can't just make shit up anymore and what what on just all-star riffer back in the day before phones that guy, yeah, the wind, the heat. It because you know, that's not right. I was just rocking and rolling through the 90s and 80s. He's firing those out. He has this internal
Starting point is 00:24:32 confidence. Yeah, it's called evaporative cooling. Look it up. You know, I can motherfucker evaporative cooling. Bullshit. It's not what it's called well I don't have service out here everything you said is in red
Starting point is 00:24:49 it's a fun time I really like it it's funny yeah don't let him pick your camping spots I don't that's why the Mongolians on the high steps they're always in fucking leotards because they're so hot dude i'm waiting for those next thing to do i know yeah and i was like jackie we should go to mexico and she's like no i was like all right well then i'll go and she's like
Starting point is 00:25:21 no like no that's that's not one of your choices. No, no, no. You can go or you cannot go. You can't tell me I can't go. That's not on the menu. No, no, no. So we're sorting this out, but I always win. You're going to Mexico is what you're telling us. Well, I've compromised. I think I'm going to go to Baja, Mexico, which is a little more chill.
Starting point is 00:25:42 That's white people Mexico, you know. As long as it's got trails that's all he cares about i'm sure right yeah i'm looking for look it was like october 10th and i'm already like i can't believe winter's here fuck this man there's no way i can make it till march so i i started i've rented that fucking beach house i got got a thing in Florida in a week or so, 10 days. And that's it. I don't have anything after the beginning of December scheduled to escape the oncoming winter. You want to play some Rust?
Starting point is 00:26:14 You need to move to Miami. Thank you for the invite. That's not the same as motorcycling through the mountains of Mexico. Have you thought about moving to Miami? No, somewhere that never gets winter. I know North Carolina winters are mild by comparison. Miami winter, they don't even get it. It's just they don't have that there.
Starting point is 00:26:36 I hear you. You'd love hurricane season. It'd be exciting. Jackie has roots here. Colin has this array of doctors and therapists. We have friends that are like family. that's why we haven't moved um if telling us this if there is a tragic car accident i'm moving someplace warmer miami just the hottest most southern tip florida town miami it could be texas i would have to i would do what I did before I moved here, buy a map of the country
Starting point is 00:27:06 and map and see what meets my priorities. Maybe Costa Rica. Yeah. Is that always that hot? I guess so, right? You would imagine so. It's a pretty far south. I don't think it is.
Starting point is 00:27:22 Biking through the mountains of Mexico does sound very fun. Do you want to come? Uh-uh. No. No, thank you. Thank you for the invite, though. I appreciate that.
Starting point is 00:27:32 Okay. Did you watch that video I sent you? They don't allow me in that country. Did you watch the Alaska video I sent? Did it capture your attention at all? Yes. I told you to give it two minutes. I watched some of it.
Starting point is 00:27:44 I watched some of it. I lost you. Okay. It didn't lose me. was busy i had people over oh okay but and i you know i was watching on my phone and then i was talking to them and there's a movie on and but but i'm i plan to go back to it because i found it interesting one of them had how old was that bike 43 years something like that what i wouldn't i wouldn't ride a 43 by 43 year old bike anywhere i mean i guess around town here like i was goofing around but like trusting a 43 year old bike for like that journey it's crazy that guy's a master mechanic and at one point he's like underslept underfed cold wet in the rain having to fix that bike. And he is still a way better mechanic than me on my best day. I'm diagnosing it in my head.
Starting point is 00:28:30 I'm like, it's the compression, bro. It's got to be the compression. It was not the compression. It was leaking electricity through the spark plug wire into the air, into the rain. I would have never gotten that. And now you're the hot wind guy yes yes i i was wrong what do you say i was wrong so so yeah he's a anyway he's the guy you want
Starting point is 00:28:57 around do you think you could handle one of those trails with your current skill level kyle no i shouldn't well i don't know what the trail looks like i saw so i haven't done really any i haven't done any off-road riding that's that's part part one of the problem i mean i could learn but um i don't really want to um but but even if i did like like i don't know what these trails look like although like of course in my mind i picture something terrifying i picture one of those things where they're like, remember in Lord of the Rings when they're walking on top of that mountain on that pass? And it's just like straight down on either side. And they're just walking on a ledge, basically. And that's what I'm picturing.
Starting point is 00:29:35 But on a dirt bike that I'm having to like accelerate and decelerate. Dodge Saruman's blasts. Yeah. Well, there might be. Yes. And protect the ring. The more terrifying trails are my favorite. Cause you go slow.
Starting point is 00:29:49 All trails are terrifying when you drive with people who like speed, you know? So if the trail is like one step away from paved, but slippery, they're going like 60 miles an hour sliding around the corners. And I'm doing my best to keep up when it's, I don't know when they literally have like 60 miles an hour sliding around the corners and i'm doing my best to keep up when it's i don't know when they literally have like wooden timber steps built into the trail with 18 inch drops that's when usually my skill set is at the top of my friend group and when
Starting point is 00:30:18 we're going really fast it's towards the bottom of my friend group i would get annoyed like because you had that experience where someone was going way faster than they could handle and they like crashed and slid and hurt themselves and now it's basically like everyone pause the whole day is on pause now nobody go forward and it's like you fucking piece of shit i knew watching you go into that turn you couldn't handle that and now it's like it's like you destroyed the roller coaster right before we got a chance in line like i would i would not be happy with that i would be i'm sure he feels bad too in fairness to him i'm sure he's like oh my god i'm that guy right now uh yeah so
Starting point is 00:30:54 what people what he's talking about as i was on this trip there was a guy he was new to the dirt he couldn't make a turn and he i think he fell 40 feet down the cliff and then after that went 20 feet more like his bike was hung up 40 feet down and then he was 20 feet below his bike which was like sketch perilously ready to fall on top of him until the medics tied it up and uh it was a nice learning experience for me sadly at his expense but it was like yeah dude you are not being considerate by pushing yourself into the danger zone don't crash nobody wants that not them not you not nobody i remember it was at like a we were only like eight years old or something it was like a school uh rollerblading thing i don't know if you guys had those things kyle your area probably didn't have as many you just go to the roller like eight years old or something it was like a school uh rollerblading thing i don't know if you
Starting point is 00:31:45 guys had those things kyle your area probably didn't have as many you just go to the roller rink and you just skate in a big circle of course yeah this is south carolina we we had the uh we had the boulderama and uh skate town skate land or something like that yeah well i loved that because like at eight i'd already been playing hockey for a few years at that point and i mean i was playing ice but like i was good on rollerblade so i was like this is not i'm far and away the best person at my school here and like there would be a couple kids who would like do that thing where like they just get us going as fast as they can and they're leaning forward too far and they can't control themselves and this kid fell and hit his head so hard that he bled to the point that they had to end free skate and have some 14 year old with a mop go out there and like soak up all this blood from this
Starting point is 00:32:32 kid with like a squeegee and that was an example i'm like bitch if you can't handle the speed you know stop ruining the rest of our you know second twice now people have suffered horrific injury, and Taylor's like, think about the impact you've had on me. Job, asshole. If you see somebody flying by you skating, and he's like Naruto running, like arms straight behind him,
Starting point is 00:32:55 lean forward, knees leaning together, ankles shaking, that guy has no chance of stopping. He doesn't even know the shape his body should take to stop, other than to run into that sideboard, that end board as fast as you can and then go, because it hits him right in the lower stomach. Can you hockey stop on rollerblades very well? Not nearly as well as on ice.
Starting point is 00:33:16 I learned it at one point. If I tried it now, I bet I couldn't. It's weird. You have to like jump into it almost. And if you don't commit, you'll catch a pinch on it and flip forward. On ice skates, if you're vertical, you tend to slide really well. And the more you tilt your shins, I'll say, the better it cuts and grabs. On rollerblades, it's kind of the opposite.
Starting point is 00:33:39 You've got to lean over and put them on their side to get them to slide. And then they slide and grab. i always thought a little unpredictably so i didn't like it as much yeah it's definitely playing goalie and roller hockey the one time i did that was the worst hockey experience of my life it was the hottest thing imaginable like it's hot enough playing in ice you don't realize how much that ice really helps cool you down yes i do standing just in front of a big like warehouse fan that's sort of aimed at you with two blades just dad can we go home no the goalie didn't show up you have to play goal and everything hurts more like every time you fall i guess as a goalie you don't like fall at speed very often but when you play out if you fall on ice you kind of slide to a stop and everything's a little more
Starting point is 00:34:25 chill when you fall on whatever fucking rubber that a roller hockey rink is made out of like you can ride it you can you get road rash if you're not covered properly and everything hits harder there was no give to it and it had like a sticky tacky like dirty feel from all the dust and sweat residue on there because they weren't sandburning and shit. Something about ice, though, just feels harder than concrete when you fall straight down on it. You definitely don't want to bounce your head off ice. That could kill you. I just remember learning to skate and falling on my ass all day and my palms and how bruised my palms and my ass were just from just falling all fucking day.
Starting point is 00:35:06 You needed elbow pads. Then you can like dip out and just fall on your elbows. That's how a lot of people learn. Well, I was in like a crowded skating rink learning. You were crashing, bleeding, making everybody leave free skating. I didn't bleed.
Starting point is 00:35:21 I would get up rather quickly. I was like 19. This was a bit later then. But yeah, there was, and like, there were always like, I say adults, but looking back, these were probably 13 or 14 year olds because I was like six or seven. And so like some like big kid would come out there
Starting point is 00:35:38 and I'd be like, that guy doesn't even have elbow pads on. He's wearing a t-shirt. He's so cool. He's got his rink rats shirt on and then like that guy catches an edge and he just leaves a piece of elbow skin like because it's just that 14 year old not so cool anymore mr you know can't bend my elbow right kept his skin graft over there oh roller hockey was great we had a ringer team just that was our goalie had because
Starting point is 00:36:05 this is before i played goalie when i played roller hockey i started that when i was five or six and we were so good in our league that our goalie i think he got six shots over the course of the year like just didn't ever take get shots on him and like me and my brother and a couple other people we played in my basement in the street hockey so much that like my dad would get mad at us about sportsmanship he'd be like taylor if you score again you're not playing anymore in this period and i'd be and i'd be like my buddy ryan he already scored five goals in this game i only have four goals in this game and i never get to beat ryan because he's the best player on the team i scored again and like he got because i think it was like 14 to nothing at that point
Starting point is 00:36:45 but yeah it was like wow you never yelling at ryan you're never saying ryan can't score that was great playing out was so much more satisfying than goalie in 99 of the time but the highest highs of goalie were like you know that you just saved every single person's ass it was like yeah you know now i like these levers of power like where they know what the score is everybody treats you like a girl at a bar to protect you to keep you safe don't you dare if you ever want to feel protected play goalie and ice hockey because then you'll have a bunch of you can be like someone like sprays ice on you doesn't hurt at all but if you're like oh my stars and goddess i do declare someone will come over and fight that guy for you that's literally true
Starting point is 00:37:31 yeah i played defense and i was like am i obligated like that wasn't that big an offense but amongst the social code of hockey i guess i'll push him and i remember like thinking like oh it's because they appreciate me and then like as i got older, I was like, no, it's because no one on the team wants to have to step into this position. No one wants to have to play goalie. They just trick some kid into it by what they did with me. Don't you want to be in the position where you have more control over the outcome of the game than anyone else on the ice by far? And I was like, I do like that. That's a fun, enticing little thing.
Starting point is 00:38:06 Oh, also your fuck ups are the most important. Far and away. Everyone. Yeah. Maybe I will play men's league at some point, but I'm not playing goalie. I refuse,
Starting point is 00:38:19 refuse to play goalie. I am like Jerry Seinfeld. I refuse to run. I will not. I think in your leagues do goalies have to pay to play uh no it's usually free yeah but pretty much everywhere goalies are free because no one wants to play yeah that's right that is why yeah i had to incentivize goalies it's like just watch netflix instead yeah and nobody wants to go by and you know pony up for the goalie equipment you can't miss a game the entire dude the team size oscillates between like
Starting point is 00:38:53 8 and 15 on any given weekend but the goalie has to be there and if they don't like it just it ruins the game for everyone then they're like all right well i guess we have to flip the net down and aim it to the back and you can't ricochet it in but you will anyway this is the worst i hate this like the other team has no goalie so we're gonna win they don't have a goalie right it's like all right we'll let you put like a bench in front of it and we have to shoot it from x far away. We still can score pretty much at will, but we don't, you know,
Starting point is 00:39:26 so we're up like three to one. And then the goalie comes. It's like, well, if I knew it was coming, you'd be 11 to one right now. Fuck. That is,
Starting point is 00:39:37 that is dirty pool. They knew that goalie was showing up late. Like just string them along, you know, really whine and bang your stick and seem like you're going to leave. We should probably change topic. Oh, Georgia football is undefeated. I saw 11-0 now.
Starting point is 00:39:53 My team. My number one team. Oh, Mizzou beat Florida in OT going for two. Yeah, Florida losing to Mizzou. So now Mizzou is going to get a bowl game and Florida won't. State's been ranked all year. Florida doesn't have a coach now. I don't know if you noticed that.
Starting point is 00:40:11 They fired him. Losing to Mizzou is a firing offense apparently. It should be. Now they're 5-6. That's terrible for Florida. State is 7-3 maybe? Something like that. NC State 8-3. 24. They're still hanging out up there. Florida. State is 7-3 maybe? Something like that. NC State, 8-3. 8-3. Alright.
Starting point is 00:40:27 They're still hanging out up there. We should be... I think we have one more game left. UNC probably. Or maybe we have two. And we should win the rest of our games and be good season for us. Yeah, that would be good. Finishing the whole thing ranked.
Starting point is 00:40:44 Now Georgia just has to not fuck up versus the 3-8 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. This will be the best game of the year. How is that even a real rivalry? No one at Georgia Tech thinks they're going to win. Is that Athens? We're Athens. They're Atlanta.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Wait, you're saying Georgia is Athens? Yeah. That is a tiny little town,thens no it's bigger than you think 50 okay 50 60 000 but but like the student population is enormous um like there's like the university of georgia is there obviously but so is like athens tech and there's like a like two or three nursing schools and um um another thing there's the student population there is absurd what's the population of atlanta like a million like 3.5 a lot yeah so it's 3.5 million versus 50 000 how is georgia winning they're playing better football well i would explain i just don't yeah they play much better football good for georgia i hope that they so who are they going to play in the in the big championship game
Starting point is 00:41:53 is that not set yet um them versus so i'm not an expert but i would imagine that they have to play alabama to get out of the sec i imagine they can lose to al to Alabama and still make the college playoffs. Yeah. We'll see. It probably depends on how they lose. But it seems like they should be able to lose one. I mean, if they can't beat Alabama, they don't deserve to go. Well, Alabama lost and they apparently deserve to go. are different for alabama they're slow that's fair well but i mean their their reputation is such that like even when they
Starting point is 00:42:34 lose it's more like like all the stories i saw were like texas a&m secret titan of a team so it's not even like alabama falls short it's like alabama as always tremendous but texas a&m edges them out like tremendous such a favorite for all of the fucking analysts yeah it's been uh it's i guess they're matching uh the 1982 season maybe was the last time they went undefeated like this uh that's pretty sick um i think maybe they won the title that year as well would It would make sense. So yeah, pretty cool. Pretty cool. Good year to be a Georgia fan.
Starting point is 00:43:10 Good year to be a Braves fan. Not a great year to be a Falcons fan. Not a great year to be a Falcons fan. Going to have to rebuild. Rebuild. We're going to need a quarterback. We're going to have to rebuild. We need a new quarterback. I feel like Matt Ryan
Starting point is 00:43:24 was a really good quarterback he was he was like third or fourth most paid qb in the in the league and it seemed like every year it was just like oh yeah next year he's gonna be so good he's gonna be so good oh he was he was really good this year we just fell short because this and that and there was excuse after excuse until like now it's like yeah he's pretty old now huh and it's like god is he i guess is it time to start over again so i don't know i don't know yeah i mean like it looks like it'd be nice to win a super bowl have they not won it ever the falcons i remember going to the super bowl in like 1994 or 95 when deon sanders was on the team. That's when they had the Dirty Birds.
Starting point is 00:44:06 Then obviously, there was this most recent time when they lost to Tom Brady. I don't remember them winning. I Googled it. They've lost twice. Never won. What year was the other one? Was it 1994 or 1995?
Starting point is 00:44:21 One moment. 1998. Then 18 years later. So incalculable. Yeah, I was a kid for sure. But yeah, not much of a team. But yeah, good year for sports here. Not a great year, apparently, to be walking in a Christmas parade because you might get ran down.
Starting point is 00:44:42 Yeah, Jesus Christ. That footage is insane. So I'm not up to speed on this story was it politically motivated was it a homicide was it bad driving uh it definitely wasn't bad driving like it was like an it wasn't good driving well okay it was that's true well it depends on your motive driving depends on your goal it might have been great driving uh the video makes it seem like it was totally intentional like bowling over like i think 50 people were hurt five at least five are dead so far he raised what were these people doing did they deserve it they were doing literally the most mild christmas parade you've seen i i saw something online there was i'm
Starting point is 00:45:21 offended by christmas was it a holiday parade or a christmas parade because christmas needs to be shut definitely it was definitely a christmas parade he pulled right into the dancing grannies just jesus christ dancing grannies literally yeah it was like children and dancing grant like like when i when you say like it was like the most gentle looking like we love christmas kind of uh protest not not protest dodge the car with surprising agility any of them the the car came up from behind and just just drove through people and you can see the car line is not one of them had neo matrix skills the speed of the vehicle is important to be to note because this wasn't like he was driving along part of the parade and then lost control and barreled in through a crowd.
Starting point is 00:46:08 He was hauling ass coming for some grannies. He came in. He must have been going 50 or 60 or 70. He was flying and he killed a lot of people. How many did he kill? Five so far but I know there's people in critical condition.
Starting point is 00:46:23 20 or 30 wounded or something like that. Black guy though i was shocked when i saw it was a black guy yeah yeah it was a black guy yeah do we know his motive i don't really know i i don't know what's been verified apparently he had some uh not so nice things to say about white people on his social media oh they said he was having a bad day. It seems like he must have been one of the worst days imaginable to drive over 50 people. You didn't say he was having a bad day. Now it's understandable.
Starting point is 00:46:54 Now... What's he feeling right now? Do you think maybe it was because of the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict? Do you think that perhaps motivated this man? Oh, I don't know. Maybe. Because that would make absolutely no sense because Kyle Rittenhouse verdict? Do you think that perhaps motivated this man? Oh, I don't know. Maybe. Because that would make absolutely no sense because Kyle Rittenhouse shot white people.
Starting point is 00:47:09 Yeah, but like it's been being called racist everywhere. Oh, you owe me $5. I won. You do. I was going to pay it to you on the show because I thought it was funnier. Wait, it's funnier. It's funnier. Wait. It wasn't dodging. I wanted it
Starting point is 00:47:23 quarters. You got a notification on your phone the last, it wasn't dodging. I wanted in quarters. You got a notification on your phone the last time I lost a bet for a dollar, and I thought it worked perfectly. I wanted that again. That's good. I mean, $5. You guys play for keeps.
Starting point is 00:47:40 I couldn't follow. Chiz made all those sports bets, and I saw he almost won one. Did he win anything? The parlay? I couldn't follow. Chiz made all those sports bets. I saw he almost won one. Did he win anything? The parlay he was talking about? I don't think at the time he texted, those games had all completed. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:47:56 I know he does that all the time. It looked like a page of parlay. There were like six of them or so. It was a lot. I thought it was more. I glanced. It looked like a lot. six of them or so. It was a lot. I thought, I thought it was more. I glanced. I, it looked like a lot. I could be wrong, but it was interesting.
Starting point is 00:48:09 He was doing all these, he was like risking, I'll make up a number, $42 in an attempt to win like $4,700. And I don't know. I, I, people make money betting,
Starting point is 00:48:23 I'm sure. But I was raised to believe that nobody makes money betting, I'm sure. But I was raised to believe that nobody makes money betting, which can't be true. But that's the lens at which I look through it all. Like, yeah, did you almost win one? That's how they get you to bet next time. Here's what's interesting to me. The fact that the people who make the line,
Starting point is 00:48:41 the betting lines, but the fact that they can get it within one or two points indicates to me that it is a skill. If it is a skill, then there have to be bettors out there who are good enough to see when the guy who made the line is off
Starting point is 00:48:56 a little here or there and to take advantage of that little edge occasionally. This isn't the guy who's like, yeah, I'm a Braves fan, so I bet on the Braves games. This is a guy who's looking through the fucking fucking paper or why am I making a paper? What year? He's got like three papers. You got the post and the times, you know, he's got tablets.
Starting point is 00:49:19 But I would imagine that there are people who bet like that and are good at it. But then there's just gamblers, right? And the way Chiz does, he doesn't have to win half the time, right? He's not betting on even odds. If he wins one in 10, he's doing well. Yeah. I don't know if that's right. I may have exaggerated on some of that,
Starting point is 00:49:39 but it was still something that seemed extreme to me. Yeah. No, I never do any bets like that or anything. I like to play poker. I goofed around in roulette the other night and a little bit in blackjack. Decided I wasn't very good at those games. Well, the casino decided I wasn't.
Starting point is 00:49:56 I thought it was great. I still think I'm lovely. How can you be good at roulette? Like a special twist? No, no no no no you don't get to touch the board you touch the board all bets are off no no no um i'm really good at picking what color the ball's gonna land on red or black um or green those are two of the options yes and are there only red and black i thought there was only two based on like movies let me explain the scam there's red black and one or two greens so if you bet on red or black
Starting point is 00:50:31 there's 50 50 payoff odds but because of the existence of greens the house gets the advantage that makes sense you can bet on green though you can't i don't know what the payoff is for them. It's pretty good. It's pretty good. Yeah. It's got to be like double what a number is, I guess. I think there's two greens. I can't believe that when you play, you're not allowed to spin that thing in the middle of the board.
Starting point is 00:50:59 I thought that was a big selling point to roulette. The dealer does it, and I don't know if it it takes any skill but they do it nicely yeah they spin the thing right where you're trying to calculate well there's no way to calculate because once they have it spinning then they throw the ball and up and into the wheel oh wait they throw the ball under the wheel yeah right you don't get the ones i've seen they do like a thing where they like spin it around and the ball like i've seen it spins around and it's kind of on a track and then as it slows down it loses the centrifugal force and falls into the wheel where it bounces around really unpredictably until it comes to a stop that's what i mean it's randomized what i'm saying it's not as if like it's like price is right where it's like all right we need three and a
Starting point is 00:51:43 half rotations oh yeah it's not like that it wouldn it's like Price is Right, where it's like, all right, we need three and a half rotations. Oh, yeah, it's not like that. It wouldn't matter how, you just want the wheel spun. No, once it falls off the track onto the wheel, it's still bouncing like a lot, like 30 more times. Like there's no. Is that one of the highest payout likelihoods of all the games? Isn't Blackjack number one, right? Well, there are games of skill, right?
Starting point is 00:52:04 So poker is a games of skill right so um that poker is a game of skill and um but but if you're talking about like like what's closest to even odds yeah like like those fun games like i know like like uh slots they say those are like the fucking worst thing for getting paid out even well slots like have an algorithm the way i understood it where like they're they just pay out a certain amount per hour late like so that you know i don't know if a hundred dollars goes in it pays out 60 an hour and so you feel like you're winning yeah but you're losing consistently the tailor's right you'd really be bucking the odds to win its slots in um craps there are situations where you can have the advantage.
Starting point is 00:52:49 I'm not good enough to explain it, but when it falls down this way, you can make bets and actually have things in your advantage and increase the amount. But shucks, where's the best? I think a skilled poker player might be the highest. That's got to be it. Someone who knows their way around blackjack or poker well yeah they're blackjack the way i understand it is that blackjack and poker are two games of the two games of skill i'm sure there are other card games that that have um amounts of skill though um i just don't know anything about them is blackjack as deep of a game
Starting point is 00:53:20 with skill as poker though like it seems simple um There's not as much strategy. I think it's definitely more simple because you've got the math side of it and then there's just the strategy side of it of like when to stay and when to hit based on what the dealer has as well in certain situations. We played a little blackjack the other day with Dirty coaching me.
Starting point is 00:53:39 Dirty knows enough about blackjack to get himself and me into trouble. I googled it blackjack's odds of winning are 49 craps nearly 50 i don't know uh roulette also nearly 50 and i was curious about poker in particular and it just said odds very dramatically yeah odds very dramatically they absolutely do but um i don't know i it would be easy to sit down i feel like it's easy to sit down and make a little money quickly it's it can be hard to sit there all night and and um keep winning those coin flips
Starting point is 00:54:17 that you almost inevitably end up in that so i thought i would be better at poker than I actually am. And I, one of the keys to doing well in poker, I've observed not, not executed is making like ruthlessly calculated decisions all night long and having a lot of discipline in them. But I, both times I couldn't resist.
Starting point is 00:54:43 Like, you know what? Enough fucker. I'm tired of you. Drip, drip, you know what? Enough, fucker. I'm tired of you drip, drip, dripping me for $4 at a time. This time I'm going to stand up for myself. This is a dumb attitude in poker. You should stand up for yourself when you have a really good hand, not when you're tired of being bullied.
Starting point is 00:54:59 And I feel like that's where the good person is sitting there like, this dummy is going to stand up for himself and show me what's what. Oh, don't stand up for yourself again. Again. Yeah. It's such a complex game. I've been reading a lot lately and studying a lot. There's a lot going on.
Starting point is 00:55:20 There's a term for, like, you have a bad hand, but you stick around long enough to see if it'll be good. You know, like shit, I don't know. Let's say you've got like a 10-7. This hand sucks. You probably should get out immediately. But for four bucks, you can maybe see the first three cards flop and you find yourself with like two pair or something like that or you know nearly a straight so you pay five bucks to stay in long enough for the first for the flop and then you get out and you
Starting point is 00:55:54 can just lose five dollars at a time like that again and again and it's tempting to do it yep yep yep yep it's tempting to see a lot of flops um it's um it it's it's it's a it's a real passive mindset and way to play poker to sort of be like oh can i pay the minimum amount and see as many flops as possible when i hit a big one then i'll put all the money in and it just won't work it just won't work because because everybody's watching you and they're seeing what you're doing so they're going to try to take advantage of the fact that you're putting your money in lightly. They're going to say, oh, you put $3 in. How does 10 sound?
Starting point is 00:56:35 And so often you are going to say it sounds terrible that they are profiting off of you long term. Because that one time when you're like, yeah, 10 sounds great. They're like, okay. And then they're very wary of you. Or if you raise them, they're like, oh, keep your $ your seven dollars profit then i'll i'll just keep doing that this this to you all night and you're only going to do this 10 of the time i'm printing money um it's a real it's been on the wrong side of that yeah uh we all have we all have um it's not fun playing it's people who are better than you no that plays i don't know where i'm gonna find people worse than me
Starting point is 00:57:05 it's hard to get into because you have to go into it like they don't really have beginning pokers circles they kind of do um um i mean there's play money you can use play money on the sites and play like it's real and see if you are a profitable player. Before you... You let you play for free? Yeah. Imagine it with tokens instead of dollars. I used to do that with stocks as a kid. There were tools and sites and stuff. We had a class where we did that.
Starting point is 00:57:37 Oh, yeah? Yeah, in economics, I think. They gave us a certain amount of money to invest in a stock, and at the end of the, you know, the year we saw who would have made the most, most magical money. And I had taken my a hundred dollars and put it in like some
Starting point is 00:57:53 semiconductor company or something like that. That was like a penny stock. And it increased by like, it went from like being worth two cents a share to like two and a quarter or something. And I, and I just won hands down or something like that it wasn't even close because everybody else invested in like blue chip
Starting point is 00:58:10 stocks that aren't going to increase by a massive amount you can learn the wrong lesson from that something like oh i see so the more extreme risk penny stock you can find the better return you get yeah that's where like crypto seems to be at like when i'm reading about it online like like it doesn't seem like it's too late to be getting into bitcoin at all but because bitcoin's already so valuable it seems like there's a lot of people who are like well okay we missed the bitcoin train but poo coin everybody poo coin or like shit coin too the first one didn't work but shit coin two everyone hashtag shit coin or like i just made that one up but like it probably is real a lot of i'm deep in shit coins my um my paramotor friends
Starting point is 00:58:52 are big into its various coins and and like i'm a coin goes wild and they've had it since the beginning they're like oh yeah i invested in shiba from the start how did you know shiba was good how you had shiba all this time they had doji they had like all this shit and uh but they did they don't talk about their losses i don't know if they have many they've some yeah i think that shiba coin or whatever is like point oh like like it's not even a fraction of a penny it's that little and the people like i've talked to friends who are like but that just means if it ever got up to half a penny i'm a billionaire and it's like but that can't that can't work that there how can all of these shit coins keep getting pumped like that is it just elon musk tweeting and then pumping money in and
Starting point is 00:59:45 then immediately selling to make some i wouldn't be surprised if rich people are doing that they do it with regular stocks why wouldn't they do it with immediately shift over to start doing it i don't know i don't know what to say you're right oh my god i'm looking at shiba the current price is.000043. Okay. But for the year, it's up 54,000%. Holy shit. That's absurd. You know how some numbers are so big you can't even fathom them?
Starting point is 01:00:23 Yeah. These numbers are so small I can't even fathom them? Yeah. These numbers are so small I can't. I know. It's like when they start talking about how small subatomic particles are, like quarks or something. Dude, I can't even imagine that. Bitcoin was at $10,000. And Optic Big Timer, who is a smart investor, he's done really well for himself, made a video. And I remember it.
Starting point is 01:00:44 He's beasting in Fortnite and he's just saying, don't invest in Bitcoin. If you think you can get into Bitcoin at like nine grand and still make money, you just don't know anything about investing. And he looked pretty smart
Starting point is 01:00:59 for a short period of time. And then it went up to like 19 and now it's gone up to 60 recently. I don't know where it is right now. would guess 45 to 55 but 56 yeah i don't know i don't know but i i don't advise people on bitcoin i'm not the guy yeah there's nothing big timer i guess apparently not but that doesn't stop like econ takes like how many times is that one guy who's that guy who is like the fax machine and the internet will have the same long-term impact on the economy and like that guy still will be like here's my take on the 2021 economic
Starting point is 01:01:38 situation it's like no no no no no sorry you you can't say that anymore you didn't believe in the internet that's so wrong i hate it when they predict a downturn for like nine years in a row and then like year 11 rolls around and they're like told you told you i knew it all along it was about to sink yeah fuck you no no you have to tell me when it's gonna to sink. If you get your timing wrong, that doesn't count. They're way closer to gamblers than they want people outside of the profession to understand. You ask them, they're always up. If you were to ask whatever that guy's name is about the fax machine, the internet thing, I guarantee he's got a long-form explanation. At the time, the analysts were thinking that they don't think they've been wrong the whole time.
Starting point is 01:02:24 analysts were thinking that like those they don't think they've been wrong the whole time the same way people who were like weapons of mass destruction 20 years ago like they're still getting introduced on like cnn and fox like wow this is an x head of the cnn isn't it rare that any of those investment firms like like like beat the just beat the market 15 of the time roughly that's 15 of the time a lot yeah that's it's not good if you want to beat if you want to win 85 of the time you just dump it in the s&p 500 it's been true for like my entire life yeah but no they're they've got books to sell that are going to help you get past that drudgery and go straight to rich and like your mind wants to make that a simple number like oh so like 18 of the firm or 15 of the firms are good.
Starting point is 01:03:05 It's like, no, no, no, that's, that's spread across all of them. That's spread across all of them. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:09 Yeah. And if they're good this year, they won't be next year. They do. They will just beat it every seven years or whatever that equals. Yeah. I imagine if you, if you led your firm to like three consecutive years of like,
Starting point is 01:03:20 they're sucking your dick every time you walk in the building. Probably once you get your dick sucked. If I learn anything from Wolf of Wall Street. It's fair. It's very true. Well, that's an hour. I have Thanksgiving to begin preparing. It's two days away, but you have to start the thawing process
Starting point is 01:03:40 and getting the cold stuff cooked. So I'm going to get at it. I had fun. It's good to feel better. Glad you're well. PKN 379.
