So to the however many people that listen, this is the logo of the podcast that you're listening. We have multiple verticals here

at Adam Friedland show, Incorporated. I think the way, because it's still people have trouble understanding the differences. I'm gonna build some kind of, some kind of table that says to the show. Yeah, but it says podcasts, and then we'll get different shares for the podcast. Uh-huh.

And we should do different lighting setup. Okay, yeah. Well, the distinction of the suit also. That's another that's another visual distinction. I heard you're a suit. Yeah, yeah, it's not it's actually my father's suit. He had it before anyone. Yeah, before that guy was a lot actually when you're dad at the same color, it's the same color when you're dad at a talk show. No, it didn't have a talk show. Oh, you never talk. Oh, you never talk. Man with a suit. Oh, it's just a gray suit.

Oh, okay. Oh, you could have mentioned this, maybe, nine months ago to me, maybe, been like, you know, a different suit. There's something like, perhaps. Wow. Who's that, now you're saying it's the air condra suit. You're saying, well, that's just,

we've always, you've always called it. You're from the beginning, you're like, I have to have called it. I have like, you were like, I have to get an air condress suit. You're saying that's just what we've always you've always called it from the beginning You're like I have to have called it. I have like you were like I have to get an Eric Andre suit You have to be like you're like people need to know that this is the Eric Andre The people in the snow is there. It is true. I know Adam I thought maybe we should try to do like our own thing and you said what do you talk? What is your own thing? He talked me down from the idea of Like I literally have never come up with a single. I don't even know what it means to come up with my own idea.

Yeah. He did talk me down from the idea of calling the show the Eric Andre show. You wanted to get one of the tacky. You were like, nobody's ever done that before. I was like, Eric Andre did it and you're like, literally when? Yeah, when. No, listen, I don't watch. I don't like, I think you stole that from American people. I don't watch things.

You're like, I didn't even say that. I don't watch things. How am I supposed to know? And then you started screaming. I didn't scream, but I was like, I didn't scream, but I was like, you're like, that's a singing, that's singing. No, you're screaming.

That's singing. You're screaming at the top of your world. Okay, would you tell the Vienna boys choir that they're screaming? I don't even know.. Okay, would you tell the Vienna boys choir that they're screaming? I don't even know. Oh, did joy. What is the Vienna boys? I'm thinking of a high pitched choral singing.

Mm-hmm. Aaaaah! That's a screamer sing to you. I don't know, you can call it whatever you want but you started doing that. And then... So, Christmas is right around the corner. And Dave quit.

No, that's not true. Dave is like, I can't do it with my show. Dave did not quit. And Dave quit. No, that's not true. Where Dave is right now. I can't do it with my show. Dave did not quit. I can't. I don't know. Dave, something else have a Dave, but it was a quit.

And I keep screaming at me. And I'm like, I don't like that. And you're like, he keeps saying it's singing. Pretty screaming at me. No. No, I didn't sing it in a couple of times. I didn't sing it in, but it was not screaming for sure. And it was not in the high pitched voice.

It was, you know, you know, go to sleep, go to sleep. Why is your hair all like mad at down? Maddy down? It looks like you put shampoo in your hair and then didn't wash it out. I don't know. It's like mad at down. I wear a hat, maddened down. I wear a hat on the way here maybe.

I've had head maybe. What should I put a little bit more volume? My hair, it's the day or somewhere. No, I don't know, it's just like mush down. I mushed it with a hat bro. You know I wear it. I'm just asking. I don't know, you know what I mean?

Listen, the bigger the show gets, the more... So, Hanna goes on Friday, Christmas is a couple of weeks away. So today we're talking about our favorite gift options for the year, is that right? That I would like, yeah, that you would like. I don't know, I don't really think there's anything. If I want something, I just go get it.

And then I kind of, the first two years of the podcast, I got all the things that I wanted. PS5. PS4. PS5 was the last of the things. You got an OLED TV. I do not have a OLED TV. What is yours? I have a Sony Z9D, which is a FALD display TV.

We've been over this a bunch. Sorry. Well, you got a television? You don't know anything about TVs. You'll like read wire cutter for like a week and be like, I know everything about fucking blenders. It's like there's a whole world of people that read these reviews all the time.

They're involved in the world. And you know, because you decided it's time for you to have an air fryer. I know, dude, it's like the sickest one. I read it. I did get a new one. And air fryer? I got like a new toaster of an air fryer combo.

Yeah, right. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. You got a combo. I got it. You got a remote unit and you're like, this is the best one. I didn't check, cyber cyber. I didn't check a wiring cutter on that one.

I gotta say, wiring cutter does not have a good hit rate. I gotta say 50% of the stuff I've gotten that they've recommended, probably crap. And I don't understand the amount of time they have, they're like, we have 7,000 experts. What was that, Steve? When I was saying originally, it was like how to steal cable or something. Was that what it was?

Like cutting the wire. Oh, that makes sense. I never put that together in my mind. Yeah, I think it was like digital like TV antenna reviews or something. Really? Because when they switched over from old broadcast TV to the new digital shit that kind of like ruined

the experience of broadcast television, which used to be, it's like fuzzy and you gotta play with the. Yeah, the buddy ears. Yeah. Yeah. We used to have that at our house, growing up. I mean everybody did. We're old. No, no, a lot ears. Yeah, yeah. We used to have that at our house, growing up. I mean, everybody did.

We're old. No, no, a lot of people's parents had cable. A lot of people's parents paid their bills on time. Anyways, then when they switched it over to new shit, and then it's like you didn't have the right reception, then you just get like green squares or whatever instead of the fuzz, or would like stop or glitch out. Yeah, and then a lot of you know They added channels, but then also the guy that was presented as there was like well

I don't know if it was wire cutter, but people be like check out this hack You don't even need cable you can get all these channels for free and it's like yeah, that's just Network television. They already had that You can get all these channels for free and it's like yeah, that's just network television They already had that. It's like stop paying for gas by fucking riding the bus or walking the work Yeah, and bounce TV as well Yeah, have you ever watched any of those channels like 7.3 and stuff? It's just pretty much law-n long order SVU reruns all day long. There's like a black one that's like I have cable now. I don't have cable. I do have a

digital antenna actually, but I don't really use it. I just use a log in, I know, you know, I pay for streaming services and stuff. And then I can watch events for free. We're not for free, I pay for it, but then I can watch them over streaming. But where my internet, not to work, I do have a digital antenna. But it does kind of suck. You do actually have to kind of move it around.

But it gets glitchy. Oh, it's on. I'm sorry. What? I didn't mean to put it on the, we'll talk about that later. Yeah, later. We'll talk about that shit later. Anyway, yeah, so we're talking Christmas

because so you feel like you have everything you want. Yeah, but would it be good gifts for people? Yeah, so like a lot of these people don't have good relationships. I'll steal a recommendation and it's a recommendation from whichever one was the pedophile guy on Mythbusters. Okay. We recommended a an optical center punch. What is that? It's like a bomb site center punch. What is the center punch? A center punch is like if you need to put a drill hole in something

beforehand you use a center punch so that the bit centers. You also have a laser that goes on the wall. There's no laser. It's like a little bomb site you look through. Oh. It's no laser, it's like a little bomb site you look through. Oh, and it makes a mark on the wall? It does not make a mark on the wall. No, instead of just using your eye

and hitting a center punch, it's got a little glass tube that you can look through and then it magnifies the area underneath the cup. And then once it's centered, you pull the glass out, put the center punch in and then you hit it. So that's my recommendation also. But that's just passed on from the mythbusters. Was that one of the things you predicted correctly?

What? That they were pedophiles? I don't know if I predicted that. You don things you predicted correctly? What? That it was a, that they were pedophiles? I don't know if I predicted that. You don't think you did? Let me see. Mythbuster. Jamie.

Is that his name? No. Is it Jamie or Adam? Adam is a... Couldn't have been Adam. You guys got a really awesome name. Adam, which one is pedophile? Which one?

Is pedophile. is pedophile? Which one is pedophile? And he, so he gave this recommendation after he caught the case, or this is something he's been recommending for a while. I'm pretty confused about what you're saying. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Uh- Adam one. Adam suggested our Adam Ginsberg. He suggested that an answer to our problem with our brain, how we've lost our sharpness or intellectually. Mythbusters star explains how the co-hosts survive 14 seasons without getting along. We're not friends. He said that after the other guy was a pedophile? I don't know which one is a pedophile.

I've told you multiple times. I thought you Googled which one is a pedophile. And it did not give me an answer. Really? So maybe neither of them are, and we're kind of making some claims that are on the fair. It's called optical center punch. I don't know what else to tell you. Which one recommended it? I don't know, but as you notice the show's logo is presented to you on this beautiful

graphite colored sea salt frame. Yes, that is correct. That is correct. It's this nice texture to it that I like that. There's like a tactile thing I'm getting out of this. Yeah, I'll touch it. You tell people what it is. No, it is nice. It has like a title.

Well, I'm touching it. You can tell people what it is. What is that? Oh, look. Look at this. All right, folks, so today's episode is, we were talking about holiday gifts, the holidays are coming around,

and it's all about connecting with loved ones. There's no better way to do that with then with a digital picture frame from Aura Frames. Wire cutter, called to the best digital frame. And this is one of the ones they got right. And it's easy to see why. You can upload your favorite picks of the family to one frame, relive all those happy moments or share big news,

like a new addition of the family, perhaps. Nick, that could be a good idea. You give your parents a picture of this, and then you have your new your parents a picture of this, and then you have your new adopted son, picture of him. Yeah. They open it up, they say, who the hell is that?

You say, that's my son that I've legally adopted. Your father, he puts his hands over his mouth, he starts leaping, tears coming down his face. Here you go, throw that one in there. He is. You adopted. You're adopted. Here we go. Texted to me? Yeah. All right. So I'll show you how easy it is.

Do you have the aura frame app? Nick is going to text me this picture. I have, I'm connected to the app unfortunately. So. Yeah, we had Adam try out the dude. So so so you listen like if folks I'm really bad So, yeah, we had Adam try out the dude. So listen, like if folks, I'm really bad at phones and apps, you know that, right? So, look how easy it is for even a guy like me to use. So, Nick has just sent me a picture of his new adopted son. I have added it to the horror frame app.

And now, now here we have it. Nick's adopted son. So you want to practice? Let's just do a practice. Nick, I want you to send you more pictures to add in there. I want, no, but I want you to put like this. I'm going to play your father. I'm going to play your father and your happy family. Okay, say, guys, happy holidays, holidays are all about love, etc., etc. And I want to show you something. I got you this. I'm going to happy Hanukkah. I've gotten you this picture frame. Now, Nick.

Of course, son. Nick, what the hell is my son? He's a comedian folks. So what the hell are you making? What the hell are you making? This picture, this guy, this little guy for. This is our new adopted family member. You got it. Well you got it. I told you got it. You got it. I told you, if you want to do a whole bit, I sent you pictures to put in there.

I got it. You skipped a step, you put them in there. All right. Clear out the other ones. Put the new ones in. Okay. All right. All right.

Let's take that again. Let's take that again. Here. We're going to take these off of the slideshow. All right and Nick just send me a couple of new pictures. Let's go. Right now, what I'm doing is I'm showing you how easy, how the hell easy it is to use this. I just added two new photos to the frame

and those should be active now, Nick. So then you have who that now, Nick, who the hell is that? This is Chapo Trap House host Will Manor. It is. It's a friend of yours. Oh, you're the source of the camera. That is our friend Will. Yeah, it's Will Manor.

And you know, that is nice to keep in touch with your friends. Yeah. Sometimes you can't get, you can talk to them on the phone. So you got a nice picture of them in your art friend while, you know, just. I gotta say this doesn't really look like a dish. There is something that looks like not a digital image. It does look like a photograph to some extent.

Maybe I'm a stupid guy, but that communicates in my mind like a photograph in the lighting right now or. I think there's maybe minimal backlight or something. Maybe minimal backlight. It kind of seems like. Now when you go to this one, there's a heart that comes up. I don't know.

Well, we love him. Long press. Shared by Adam. So these are a picture of our friend Will. And then that's your son. And that's Will. And that's your son. My son. And that's Will. And that's your son. And back to your son.

It seems like it's a little, you've randomized this dish. I don't know. I don't know why it's not in an order. I'm gonna have to fuss with the settings guys. So this is, basically that's how easy it is to use. You have an app on your phone, it's connected via Bluetooth.

And then we can have pictures and memories with us all day long. I'm sure we can time out how long each photograph is up, and when it's random, whether or not it's randomized, guys, wire cutter says this is the best digital photo frame, they can't be wrong, they have experts over there. So if it's not personal enough, you could even upload a video message to play. You know that? So you want to send me a video that I can maybe upload on that?

All right, I mean, I guess, yeah, I'll try and find a video to send again. I mean, we could show. On short notice, I'll try to find the video. Well, it doesn't have to be short. But I could look for a video too, I mean. No, I mean, we're mid, uh... No, it's fun.

You're doing something here and now you're talking about, oh, we'll just send the video. Well, say, you know, send me a video to make sure how that works. I don't know. I think that's a good idea. Here, I got some videos up. All right, put a video in there. You can call the R of frames, by the way, everybody.

Or a frames. Mara. ORA. This one's saying horror. ORA. You're saying ORA, it's ORA frames. It'll pronunciation guy. So here's a video. I don't know, so here's a video of me.

We'll do this one, huh? We'll put this up on my aura frames. Put this on aura. Here. So I've prepared it, added it here and then do you have a video, Nick? Yeah. Your video? Yeah.

All right. And I'm going back to, so I've uploaded it to the WorldFrams app. Where is it? Whatever. So you can put a video in it. We'll show you the next time they advertise with us. You can play a video message on the frame as soon as they plug it in. Oh, okay, so Nick, this is what you're gonna wanna do.

You wanna wanna make a video, say, Mom, Dad, I've got news for you. It's the holidays, right? Here we go. I'll put this one in there. Okay. So that's me. I'm trying. But the fun trick is they can have this in the box.

You can put the video message in it as a gift. They plug it in, then you say, Mom, Dad, this is a, oh, that's a beautiful video. What is this from? Ginsburg, you take this on your phone? Yeah. What was this? In Brazil? Yeah. Let's just from Ginsburg, you take this on your phone? Yeah.

Okay. Where was this in Brazil? Yeah. That's cool. So they're daytime owls. Okay, so here I got a couple more. Just put the one I sent you in, Adam. Okay.

Let's see. So we put those in videos. And unfortunately, it's not saving to my camera roll on today's day. It's saving like... So this is... What date is that, Nick? I don't know, man. Just play the video. Just put the video on. Just put the video I sent you on.

So that's, okay, so I'm going through my videos right now. This is a video Nick sent me. And then put that on there. Okay, so it's not. This is a problem with my phone, not with the app. Okay, but here's the video. It's not even a problem with my phone, not with the app. Okay, but here's the video. It's actually not even a problem with your phone, it's a problem with the, they call that user error.

Yeah, it's user error. That happens with me quite frequently. So this is now, so I've put the, taking the video that Nick has sent me, I've now uploaded it to the Oreo frames app and here we go. Here it is. And now it should be,

are there speakers out here? This is loading. It's loading right now. So obviously this is a- Yes, there are, there's a speaker in yes there are there's a speaker in the back. They're just peeking a bit So how do we turn the volume off on that? Okay, I touched this we don't both need to touch this thing all right, well now you've disabled it Tap once. Just once.

I watch Chinatown. I rewatch Chinatown. For like the tenth time. Okay. What does that have to do with Saw? We're just talking about what movies we've been watching. All right. Do you have anything to say about rewatching Shines Island?

Oh, this time around I was like, I know that's all about. Okay, so nothing. Yeah, it's on the way. I didn't realize the guy in the room is the guy that wrote the movie. Really? Yeah.

Really? And the reason it's like a guy with like brain cancer is because he was like a neurotic and he was convinced that he had brain cancer. Really? Yeah. And then he was like, well, what would you do if you found out you had brain cancer? And I guess his instinct was I would kill people that didn't take their life, like if they didn't appreciate being alive.

Yeah. And then so yeah, it was like just like, and then he wrote the movie. He sounds like real sick and the director is his friend who's Chinese and They were Australian. He's one of those Chinese Australian guys. Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah I was like oh, alright. Yeah, you're like, oh, I didn't expect that we get the she's old fear. I didn't expect that I don't we track any dirt into the house. Yeah Yeah I didn't expect that accident. I don't even track any dirt into the house. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's a real curveball when you get that accident coming out. Oh, and I'll tell you what I can stand is anti-Asian racism. Yeah.

It's something really, really gets on my nerves. Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna go like, yeah, I guess it would. It would, if you were Asian and Australia, especially with all the racism they have going on over there. Is that a racist country? It's a pretty damn racist country.

But yeah, I remember when I was there, I was like, oh, I realized that this is like, like they were like, they're closer to Asia. So of course they have more Asian immigrants than we do. Almost, you know? There used to be a camera place when I was like PA and pick up camera equipment. And I can't remember where it was. Somewhere around here actually, but one of the camera technicians was one of those guys,

Asian Australian guy. And he'd be like, oh, this one's all ready to go. And I'd be like, ah, that's bizarre. Yeah, it's like, it's like when you're in Chinatown and you see a guy with like a real like New York accent, but he's wearing all like traditional Chinese stuff, kind of.

You know, you never really see that. Sometimes. Yeah, no. I mean, it's different than that even. It's like, it is jarring. And I'm trying to think what like another, you know, like when a car has the wrong horn. It's like a La Cucaracha horn.

Yeah. No, like a La Cucaracha horn. Yeah. Or like an abuga when somebody gets a novelty. Yeah, no like a la Cucuracha horn. Yeah Or like an abugo when somebody gets a novel I was trying to do but my voice came out with it and you didn't just say a wuga Yeah, were that like in the in the kind of Dick Tracy days? Everyone had a wuga's going around. That's what horns sounded like. Yeah, that's our racist America was Because it was it was the car was

just saying I thought a woga was more of a horny noise now it was the end word no I think a woga was like I know you would use it like all look out uh... oh see you could make it either why do you just say a woga what why did you just say that's what it's on uh... uh... yeah what why did you just say that's what it's on uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh Adam Ginsburg might, he was suggested that we might have long COVID. I don't think I have long COVID. I think we might have the woman disease.

You're saying something. I think that this is, I think this is, this might be a combination. You might be able to do something. Do something, or a combination. You could do something and then you go, you could do something and then you also did it, did something wrong. You did something wrong that led you to demonstrating that you can't do something. And then I did something correctly, and then after that, or I did the right thing, and

then after that did a thing correctly, and you acted as if I had done something incorrectly, but also that I did it in an inappropriate or an opportune time. Both of those are inaccurate. And now you're saying, we both have long COVID in response to you trying to drag me down there. We're living it together with the long COVID and we're gonna be fighting this disease. I'm not gonna, I will not go silent into that good night.

I, Nick, listen, listen, we have a long lives, we have our whole lives ahead of us. We have a long life ahead of us. I can't even speak, man, because of the long COVIDs. My speech stuff has cleared up. It has? Yes. Why did it clear up? I don't know.

It's like I haven't been stumbling over words anymore. But I think for me it was always like health anxiety. I can tell when my head's like, oh, you have this type of cancer. And then you would write a movie about what would you do? What would your saw be? You thought you had this type of cancer? I'm like, oh, I think I have this pain in my liver, right?

Yeah. But I'm also like, okay, well, I know I'm under a lot of stress and I know I, like, will just convince myself of something. So no matter how real it feels or how many symptoms I have, I know that it's just my fucking mind convincing me of one problem because there's other things that I'm not like, you know, like I just can't address or fix just at the moment because I'm too busy. I've been known as eloquent in the past.

Why? I've been referred to as eloquent in the past. Elegant. Elegant. Yeah, people would say, they were grooming you. No, people were talking about elo. They would consider you an egg I guess and Yeah, they sit on me

You know, and the other hand would sit on it is the term that I believe they use in the in the grooming community No, not in the grooming community in the in the Anyways, so today's episode is also brought to you by what's it called? Oh my God, today's episode is also about you. Okay guys, listen. Today we want to talk to you about ship station. Okay, the holidays are the busiest time of the year. So we don't need you to get stuck worrying about shipping orders. Listen, we ship stuff for the show, right? We ship t-shirts. We teach ship mugs, ship yummacos. Well, the truth be told. I mean, we don't do any of the shipping ourselves. We don't do any of the

shipping. Just put it this way. You're going into e-commerce and I'll tell you something. I did e-commerce myself. Well, the Adam Friedland show shirts. I think that's that was a waste of money. Yeah, we've we've sold about 30 shirts. I think is I mean, for real though, I think that was a waste. And I think, I think it's, I think you should give me my cut of what I spent on that back because I did not think this, I think we, I think I said you, yeah, I do not think you're a really stupid idea.

But people wore those to propel sign rallies maybe three people did and that was important to show the shows logo on a Jew first of all that solidarity second of all you get the name of the show out there okay third so listen we're paying for that yeah but then why not just buy three of them and give them to people because I don't know those rallies by a thousand of those I don't know. I don't know those rallies. By a thousand of them. I don't know who's going to those rallies. You got to send them out.

You got to send them out. And the point is this, maybe you want to get into e-commerce. Our friends at Ridge Wallet, which they don't advertise on the show anymore, but only because we haven't asked them to and I think it's kind of outgrown podcasts at this point. But, you know, I, like, that guy called me up just to try to tell you,

hey, you should get back into T-shirts because he loves e-commerce. Where did he call you up? I don't know, like six months ago. Oh, okay. I've just had a lot of trouble with print shops, but when I was doing it, like ship station is the, that's like the industry

standard. Yes. If you're any commerce, you kind of already know this. So it's interesting that they're even advertising because- It's a big deal for us. Well, I mean, I was surprised when I saw that they, that these reads came in because like it's this, I mean, you have to use ship station. It would be like, it would be like,

if you, I mean, I don't know if they even have competition. It's just like, and if they do, nobody uses it. Ship station is the way to go. It's definitely better than spot-office shipping. If you get in the e-commerce, Shopify. What did I say, Spotify? Yeah, whatever. Long COVID.

No, I always, even years ago, I always confused those two. Yeah, long COVID. All right. I'm putting this one in. But in fact, it's not that because that's not necessarily true because the thing that's nice about ship station is it seamlessly, it seamlessly and effortlessly integrates with Etsy, Amazon, Shopify, eBay, more. Anything that you sell stuff online with, this is a product that seamlessly integrates with all of this. Yeah, most of the way most of these places work is,

you buy orders come in and then just give you a list of the order and what they bought. But let's say you find some success, you know, your new to eat commerce and you make, I don't know, let's say you make fucking chicken tikka masala. You're selling that through the mail. No one's ever thought of that. Let me sell Indian food through the mail.

And you know, it's because it's a brilliant idea for a business, no one's ever thought of it before. You get 3,000 orders, and, you know, you're doing fulfillment yourself, and you're just looking at like a fucking list of orders. That could be a real headache. Shopify is a pain in the ass. You get ship station.

You can also just set yourself up with like one of those little, like a label printer so that it'll print the shipping label and the pick list. And you can set all that up through ship station so it'll buy the fucking, it'll buy the postage for the order, that prints out. Yes. The fucking the pick list prints out as you can go to your, you can hear the thing, rip that out, the pick list, print size, you can go to your, here's the thing, rip that off, throw it right on the polymailer,

and then you know exactly what the stuff in there, it's a weights recalculated, everything's done. It really makes it a lot easier. Yeah, so that's the point, is that it makes all of this stuff easy to use. And so what we have offering to you guys is a free trial and quick setup. And now is the time to try a ship station out

for if you haven't been on the fence before. Okay, so you could easily and quickly update crucial order information, reduce errors. As I said before, effortless, effortlessly integrate everywhere you sell online including Amazon, eBay, Etsy, ship station manages orders, print labels, comparis rates, optimizes every shipment and automates delivery notifications to your customer. So these are not, you don't have to press any buttons.

You got the, you got the dashboard doing it for you. Okay, so including returns guys that's a big thing. It automates returns and offers custom smart recommendations for exchanges to keep customers happy. I guarantee you this, I mean I can't guarantee it, but you both say you buy one of these R frames. Yeah, for a failing member this week. I bet you they use week. I bet you these Yeah, I bet you you with guest who's guess who's getting this if you buy this shit for your grandma And it gets to her. It's because ship station got it there

That's me swimming a golf club All right next We'll go off-flum. All right, next. Anyway, guys, so Shipsation has enterprise solutions that reduce warehouse costs, improve profitability. They're robust automations and reporting makes scaling easy as your business grows. You can save thousands on shipping costs.

That's a fuck ton of money, guys. Even more saving on shipping costs, it's fucking, it's like, you know, when I started selling those shirts, it feels like, oh, I'm just printing money. I spend a day like doing the art, which I enjoy doing, enjoy drawing the shirt, send it off to the print shop.

They send me, you know, I would usually buy like maybe 1500 to 2500 shirts of whatever type. And then you put it up for sale, and at the time, people were buying them, so you get all the money comes in immediately. So you have a hit, you're looking at $45,000, and you're like, wow, but then it's like bell to bell for seven, eight days in a row. I was waking up at five a.m. and I would be bagging shirts and labeling them and everything. And I would fuck it up all the time

because I have spreadsheets I was trying to do, trying to figure out. Yeah, you got to rule her out, you have to get everything right. Well, not cold. Yeah, just trying to do it with just the built-in, but yeah, use ship station. It's like, oh man, I was wasting. But guess what guys, they also have discounted rates

from industry leader leading shippers, like USPS, UPS, DHL, and global posts. So get discounts of up to 84% off USPS and UPS rates. That's fucking huge.

for life. You hear that, 98%. Yeah, because I mean, it's not, it's like a necessary you have to have it. Well, that's what I mean. That's why I said it's weird that you're even advertising because it's like having like business insurance. Well, it's the holiday season, so there's a good time to advertise. It's good time to have it.

Let's say you have an e-commerce site, let's say you sell chicken, teacup, masala, let's say you have an idea where you sell unlicensed merchandise from our show that we don't know about.

It doesn't look like you got this at CVS for your grandma. Mm-hmm. It's a very nice thing. this at CVS for your grandma. Mm-hmm. It's a very nice thing. We got some nice ads this week. Yeah. Yeah. Nice companies.

Good companies. They've been nice to us. Good companies. Not some shady, you know, whatever the fuck. Yeah. They've got some nice stuff. Have you ever eaten any broccoli sprouts? No.

I try to just get like the right serving of vegetables. Uh-huh. And usually I do a green smoothie, but I've been reading that broccoli sprouts through the way to go. But they're not those. They look like, you know, like- How about us, bro? They look the same, but they're different. Uh-huh.

I mean, they're broccoli sprouts. Where do you get them? Like, health foods? They have a whole food sometimes, but I guess you have to, like, the best way you have to just do it yourself. You get them- You know them in the broccoli. You get them in the raw. You get them in the raw.

You get them in the raw. Yeah. Yeah, it takes like a week. They grow pretty quick. You have to buy seeds. You buy the seeds, you put the seeds in, pour filtered water in there and drain them out, just get them wet and then leave the jar upside down.

You don't need mud or anything of that. No, no mud, no soil. And then, but yeah, apparently they're supposed to be really good for you. Really? They stick to the bottom of the jar and then you put them up, so no. Well, you kind of want to let it like drain,

but they stick to the sides and stuff. And then they just grow out of the sides. Yeah, maybe that'll be my little project. And then you put it in the windowsill, so it gets done. You don't even need that. I don't think. Yeah. Really? Yeah. What is your sprouts? And it's good for you? Yeah, it's good for you. What does it do? It makes your crap nice. Oh, it's like the antioxidants and stuff. What is it? I never knew what antioxidant. Well, there's things that the free radicals they oxidize or something and then that makes

your cells more likely to turn into cancer. So if you have antioxidants, then it doesn't oxidize your cells. I don't even like free radicals, I thought they got the music in you. No? Very funny. Yeah. Good job. Reference.

This is a band, yeah. Cornie Loving, Marilyn Madden. Yeah. We'll kick your asses. You remember that? Yeah. Yeah, very good job. Sorry.

No, I mean, no, it's, yeah, you're just... Oh, that was interesting what you're saying. I interrupted exactly exactly correct. Yeah. What? No, it's the free radicals or just like the band free, but what if it would have the thing we were talking about was actually the band with the exact same name. Yeah. Instead of... You know, the kind that about salt. Anyways, what do you... I don't know.

So what? Do you care or do you don't care? Do you want to know about it or not? You just said that they're free radicals that could be cancer causing so you need antioxidants to counteract them. Something like that, I don't know. And they got the music of them. Then do you want to say the lyrics,

some more of the lyrics to? I only know the Courtney Love in Maryland. Really messing the beats your asses. Do you know any of them? Huh? Do you know the lyrics? It's a good song. Don't, don't, don't, they got the meaning of the...

You get what you give. You got what you give. Oh, you get what you give. Oh, you get what you give. All right, yeah. Listen, that title is song. I don't know, I don't know. I just remember they were in the mall. Yeah, they were rocking.

It's a good song. It's also, that was a good era. I feel like that's an era that you have some sort of nostalgia for. That's a affinity for it. Yeah, I don't know why, I don't know, but yeah, those years. Late 90s. No, it's even past that. It's like specifically. It's 99. It's the year 2000, really. It's just the year 2000. Music that babysitters of ours were listened to.

I didn't have a babysitter. I would listen to that music. It's just the, I think, what year is that? You've got the... Probe 2000, 2001. In you. You get what you give, song, 1998, is when it came out. Okay. And the year I'm thinking of is two thousand.

That's why I like that Still my sunshine no that restaurant and fucking dumb oh the iMac restaurant the iMac restaurant. Yeah Yeah, something about I don't know like like those years, it was, and like commercials were different. Where were they like, I don't know. I don't know if they good. Why? There were a lot more local commercials. Well, I was, you know, the dancing,

fucking bitch commercial, like that kind of stuff. What dancing, but in the Mitsubishi eclipse, the one they made fun of on the shiipel show. The Zoom Zoom? Yeah, I don't you hate Zoom Zoom. I know, not Zoom Zoom. There's a Mitsubishi eclipse commercial.

Yeah, I was talking about the Mods to Zoom Zoom commercial from 1996, you know, God damn well, the different things. Sorry. They're completely different. I know, yeah, I know. It's just the knowing, like, oh yeah, all I know what you're talking about, and then immediately wrong.

Just completely wrong. Just completely wrong, right out of the game. Oh, yeah, no, we all know wrong. Yeah, like the Dodge Durango commercial with the dad from Gilmore Girls, right? I don't like that one. No, not like that, Adam. Was there a dad from Gilmore Girls, right? No, not like that, Adam. Was there a dad from Gilmore Girls?

Yeah, Laura Lee's dad. Yeah, his name, Herman. The dad from Richie Rich too. We just talked about him, Edward or Herman. Yes. He was in Dodge, Durengo, commercial. He was the voice of Dodge after Dodge, I forget what they called that era.

But yeah. Dodge is done. It doesn't exist. It's just Ram Trucks. Yeah. You know, when the prowler came out, those, that era. Would you drive a Plymouth prowler? Only if it had the attached trailer.

And how did trailer for it? They had a trailer that it was like a rare accessory, but they had a trailer that looked like the back of the Dodge Prower. And it had a towing package that you could bring it with so you could go camping in your Dodge Prower. Wait, was the Dodge, I thought it was a Plymouth? That's the same. Dodge Plymouth Chrysler, it's all the same. Wait, what was the Dodge? I thought it was a Plymouth. It's the same Dodge Plymouth,

Chrysler, it's all the same. Oh, it's GM. Moapar. Moapar. It's not GM. It's Moapar. Moapar is Chrysler Dodge Plymouth. Well, I've never heard of that.

Yeah, it's Moapar. GM is Chevy. Chevy GM. Oh, yeah, yeah. Chevy GM, the old Mobile,, yeah. Yeah, Chevy GM. The old Mobile Buick. Basically everything else except Ford. And Ford is Ford Lincoln Mercury.

Oh, Chrysler was. Chrysler is... Mo-Parr is Chrysler. There's Mo-Parr. Yeah. And then they merged with Mercedes-Benz. And then, now that's all... What is it? Fucking... The Chinese, what is it, fucking?

The Chinese problem. Yeah, the Chinese, the Chinese just sold Volvo. They got rid of their shares. Really? Yeah. So I don't have a Chinese card in them? Volvo is not, yeah, Volvo is not doing well. Why not? I don't know.

Everyone loves those damn things. Chinese, China said they were out. Really? Oh no. Probably because they were out. Really? Oh no. Probably because they're like that whole, that new structure of least own thing they did was a failure. Was it?

I think so. I don't think people did it. Well, I still don't have my fucking Volvo because it's still at the shop after it was wiped out by a chusset. It's probably because you mentioned you had one on the show and then people are like, oh, these are lame now.

Volvo's suck. I thought they were luxury cars, but they're for... They're an understated form of luxury. Could you imagine if Ikea and Prada did a collab? Pretty much what you're getting, the interior of a new Volvo. You don't like understated the luxury?

I miss everybody. I miss my life and I feel what life? I used to have a life. What? What did you do? Well, most of it was sort of internal. I mean, I spent a lot of time alone, but I had a rich internal world that I could retire to. And now I feel like that's gone.

There's just nothing inside. There's not that there's nothing, but it's mostly. You go inside. What's the room? What's your bedroom of your mind looking like? It's mostly practical stuff. I exist sort of in the city now rather than Marvin's room. Marvin's playground. That's what I called the world. I keep on. Marvin's playground. Uh-huh.

So there it was like a kind of like a tune town kind of situation. Yeah, except the tunes were all black artists and myself. So it was a word that rhymed with the two. I would visualize, yeah, just, yeah, racist. Not why do you think it would be racist? Because you're saying that you only hung out, it was like a black village that you lived in. Or it was like Boscayot. And they would all encourage me. James Baldwin, And they would all encourage me. James Baldwin, Ava DuVernay,

Tyler Perry, Steve Harvey, the whole gang, the whole gang was there. The boxer core. James Baldwin in particular. James Baldwin. Yeah, he was like, you're one of the greatest artists I've ever met.

He said, I don't think he's talking about this. What do you sound at the time? No, I don't think he did. You know lemon. I think he talked black nails. When I met you, lemon. I thought, I think you're thinking of, I think you're thinking of Jack Donney, he from 30 Rock.

No, that's a character. The James Baldwin boy. No, that was it. You're thinking about the Baldwin. Now the guy's so careful. Now the guy's so careful. No, no, James Baldwin is also one of our bowling's characters. No, it's not.

No, it's not. He was a gay black writer from... That was the character. Old and Dave. That was the character. And he had debates with William Buckley. The shadow knows. No, it's not James Baldwin.

There's a big James Baldwin line. Why? What does shadow mean in that context? Well, you had a ring that he would give people. Does he exist in the shadows? And if he saved your life, you know, you'd get the ring? Really? Yeah.

Like an engagement ring or something like that? No, it was a ring that would glow when you had the contact, the shadow, and then you would have to contact them through a vacuum tube postal system. Really? I love which they still have in Prague. Did you know that? What? Numeric, Numeric tubes. Numeric tube postage. Everyone's house has one? I think most most of the businesses in Prague still have they have the infrastructure for that It's the only city still that has one but they used to have that yeah, they had it in Manhattan It would go for you can send some of the building Chrysler to the

To the empire this building probably at some point back, you know when this because this building has been around a hundred years Whatever business was in here. I'd like to imagine you You know what I've been doing to make myself happy? I've been convincing myself reincarnation is real. Oh, yeah. Which I did believe in as a child. No one told me about it. I just assumed it existed. Now you come back as another guy or like a man.

I thought that I had lived another life. Yeah. When I was a small child. And what was your impression of what that life was? I just see it. I was just you could feel it, you know, but it's a very comforting thought That's probably that of any it's weird that only Hindus And I guess by extension the Indian types of Buddhist rather than the Japanese

in types of Buddhist rather than the Japanese self-flagulating type of Buddhist. I think like yoga bitches also are probably. That's also Indian. That's like a Indian, they're just barrow, they're like appropriating Indians. People with the fuck do you think yoga is? Yeah, but what I'm saying is like a California smoothie type of lady. She also is like when I come back, they're in my past life. Uh-huh. Yeah, they love talking like that.

Well, I also apply, you know, the people that you've lost, you'll see them again. Well, maybe you won't see them again. Maybe they're gonna be like on your bug, on your windshield. Like your mom could be a baby right now somewhere, you know, and you guys could meet again under favorable terms. I don't mean like in a bad way.

Yeah, but there's so many people on earth, you know, should be like this. Yeah, but you don't know, you can come back. I don't meet a lot of babies though. I know, but that's what I might them not not be immediately. Yeah. In five years or something, there could be like a five-year-old that, you know, it's like waiting in line for ice cream. And it's just me. And it's, well, you know, the mom is like, my grandma. Well, no, the mom of the five-year-old is like,

we don't have money for ice cream. We had got, we had, and then you're like, I can, for some reason I want to pay for this ice cream. And then you do it, and then five year old's like, thank you, and you don't know, but like you get a feeling, and you're like, oh, I just bought my mom who's now a black child ice cream, and it makes up for all the racism too, that I think. You just think you're trying to make up for it.

Yeah, you just think, but you know, that's a pleasant thought, right? Think about it. to make up for. Yeah, you just think, but you know, that's a pleasant thought, right? Think about it. Convince your close your eyes for a second and imagine, I'm like a little emotional just here. It's nice, right? Yeah, it's not. That's what I mean.

I mean, that's it. Who knows? It's like, it could be a billion Indian people think it's real. And the mom that doesn't have the money? Oh, that's just some piece of shit. That's just a shit mom, piece of shit. But what if she, you know, what if I'd be like, yeah, I think you should be

in my grand mom is also dead. That would be weird. I don't think you could get back like that. I think you just, you get like ships crossing, you know? That's nice ships crossing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't think it's that. And you just get a little feeling.

It's not even like, you know? Oh, that's weird. It's just a nice warm feeling don't think it's a rough thing. And you just get a little feeling. It's not even like, you know? It's like, oh, that's weird. It's just a nice warm feeling. Yeah. That's fleeting. Yeah, and that nice. Yeah. And that would be the application to you.

In me, I'm thinking like I come back as some sort of warlord that kills, yeah. Just, because I, of all, you know, it's not gonna happen in this lifetime. You're just gonna be eating a meat. I was trying to remember, I was trying to remember, it got stuck in my head when I had a fever, that line from the master,

where at the end of the movie goes, for any I remember, where we know each other. We work together in Paris, at the Pigeon Postal Service. And we would send unguided balloons with messages during a siege of the city by Prussian forces during the coldest winter on record. And we sent 62 balloons. And only two went missing. He tells them that. And I had that in my head. And I'm like, what the fuck movie is that from? I couldn't remember. And what was coming to my head, and I was like sick and bad.

And I was like, falsely, but I wake up, I'm like, what movie is that from? And it's like, I thought the things I was thinking, I was like, is it fucking radio? I was like, is it Michael? I thought it was Michael. Michael. The angel movie.

And it was a dream catcher, because I was seeing like, I walked to remember it. Well, I was seeing like a main character that's magical, but like disabled and so, you know, green mile, something like that. And then, and then I woke up, I'm like, oh, it's patent, it's a movie patent.

That's to be patent, because patent believed in past lives. He did? Yes. Really? General patent thought he had been a, like in, and just in every war. He did. Yes. Really? General Patten thought he'd been a, like in, and just in every war. Oh, that's cool.

Yeah. Yeah. He was just the sickest fighter in every war. Yeah. Well, there's a kill in the movie where they go out and he was like, I was here. Thousands of music. I don't remember them at all.

Yeah. I just remember the flag. The speech. Yeah. The movie's awesome. Yeah. George C. Scott. Yeah. I want to see it again. But I thought it was that sort of the reason. I thought it'd come at that. And I was like, is that at the end of the movie? Does he say it to his assistant? Because Pat and believed in reincarnation? But it was the master. It was the master. But then, yeah, I mean, you know, you think about it.

It is a very comforting thought. It is a really nice thought. So you think you still believe in that or no? Yeah, why not? Yeah, why not? You decide, yeah, fuck it. That could be a nice thing to like give a personal little comfort, you're feeling pretty crummy.

Yeah. It's better than heaven to be honest with you. Way better. Heaven forever? Right. What the hell is that? Yeah, yeah, it's better than heaven to be honest with you way better heaven forever Right, what the hell is that? Well, it's also too you still have to wait. It's like I'll see you again Yeah, you know if you have somebody that you lost you can say I'll see you again It necessarily requires a new die as well, right? You know, and it's like okay, maybe also if I go to heaven, I'm not a good guy. Yeah.

Or like, you could have a wife and she dies before you, but you don't know that she had a boyfriend that really meant a lot to her and then he tragically dies. And he's there and says- And then he's already up there and then he's fucking her. And you're like so excited to see her. And she's like, oh, I didn't tell you about this guy from college who had motorcycle accident. He would pick me up on this motorcycle. He's actually on the way to pick me up one day. You know, he's kind of a rebel without a cause.

You get up there, you've been living. You haven't gotten any pussy since your wife died 40 years. Because that was a love of your life. And you couldn't imagine being with anyone else. And then you get up there and fucking James Is banging her? That's no heaven. I want to go to no. Yeah, it's better to just be somebody you let's know heaven. I want to go to you You you feel inspired to

Engage in some kind of charity towards you. Don't know why It's because yeah, just for a second. It was your landlord that used to talk, used to talk about movies with, who shot himself in the head. Yeah, but it was a good guy. Yeah, you're like, oh, that's fucking, that's Larry. Yeah.

And you didn't have to pay rent the next month. Oh, yeah, no. You got away with rent for like two and a half months. Well, you're the one that found him. Because you found him. And his kids were like, yeah, we're kind of, we haven't seen it in 30 years. He's still in the shitty apartment. And I was like, well, I guess I was more. Because you found him. And his kids were like, yeah, we're kind of like the right. We haven't seen it in 30 years.

He's still in the shitty apartment. And I was like, well, I guess I was more of a son to him than you could have ever been. Yeah, yeah. I saw his brains on a wall. With hell were you. Right. And they were like, he was a bad father.

He actually abused us. Yeah. It was like that doesn't make me that I'm not a better son. You know, he'd ever abused me. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. No, reincarnation is nice.

We both like the movie gladiator. Mm. We watch it together one more time. Yeah, what other things can I convince myself of? Can we just, you spend all day lying to yourself anyways? Yeah. Sure. Yeah.

Well, that's the only way you get through your days by lying to yourself. Right. You want to do it with something harmless. It's nice like that. Yeah. That's, that seems really sweet. Yeah. Like, and like, it couldn't make you a gen... Well, I guess in the instance of Pat and I guess maybe it could make you a genocidal maniac, right? I'm saying like, the thought of like reincarnation, that could be really sweet. But then if you're like, I'm the, I'm of reincarnation, that could be really sweet, but then if you're

like, I'm the best soldier in every war. Or even in terms of, because it's like, Giac says that Buddhism is a sociopathic religion. Why? Because there's no possession that you don't have to take any responsibility for anything in the material world. Right, right, right, right. Is that right? I think I just guessed that. Yeah, right, right, right. Yeah. Is that right? I just guess that.

Yeah, essentially. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Well, yeah, not possess. It leads people to inaction. Yeah, yeah. You know, it's like why not? They're like, I guess Matt has-

They're like, I'm with the Japanese. You know, you did have people that were Zen practitioners. And then there was also that video of like, supposed Zen Master in Israel that's giving instruction to the IDF on how to kill people and enjoy it. Why? I don't know. Is he like a guy from Tibet doing that? We're a Jewish guy, that's like a really good Zen.

Why guy? I mean, a really good Zen. That is such a bullshit path for Jews. They love doing that. A lot of the ways they're doing the same. they're like, oh, we actually have very spiritual, I'm getting into the east recently. Yeah, actually, yes. But I don't know if zen's really heavy on the reincarnation stuff or even,

it's more of that like Tibetan, Indian style, I don't know what the terms for it are, but I don't freaking know. Yeah. But yeah, you know what I'm saying. You could say, you know, why I like to think about it because then you don't really have to worry about time. It's like, oh, there's all these things I want to do.

Half of them are just, oh, I would be nice if I had enough money to do this, you know? Provide this. And it's like, okay, well maybe if I keep working this way, I'll be able to do that when I'm 55 years old. I'm probably 20 years away from death. But then if you're like, oh, I'm multiple, you can just come back and then start at zero. Start at zero.

Start at zero. And then spend another 55 years, it's called reincarnation capitalism. Yeah. But no, that's a good, that's a perfect example. Well, it is hapless. Of why? Because it breeds, you know, like being, you know, like, being beaten down by a... No, realistic or whatever, if you are of the thinking that you're going to come back.

Well, that capitalism is evil, right? Let's say that's an evil or immoral way to structure society. And if you did believe in re-incarnation, then it would be like, well, there's no such thing as wealth inequality because you know, you could just come back as somebody whose parents are rich. You could just come back as it's like this equalizer. Right. You know, like a like a caste system, right? Like isn't the whole I don't really know anything about it, but isn't the whole idea is like if you were one of those low the the uns thinkables what's the lowest one?

Uns melables. The Ferangie. The Ferangie. Well that's the one above it. Who is it? The Jedi are at the top. The Jedi. Well the Jedi are like the police. The Bereastus.

Kind of the porta potty. The porta potty Hindus. The porta potty house. Then below that is the unstickable. Yeah, unstickable. And then below that is like a cow, I guess.

Yeah, cow. And that's the most sacred animal. Yeah, yeah. And then the bottom animal is the stink bug. The stink bug. Yeah. What? What?

Nothing good. Why does you make a silly face to the camera? No, I just saw the light and it took my distract. It's distracted, man. But, you know, you have a system like that where there's like, I guess, you know, it's like, oh, if you do a good job job in this life then you can be reborn into this other class Yeah, which the classes are I'm assuming determined by like

You know like your material circumstances, right? Yeah, so it's like it's like okay We have this fixed social strata, but the sense of justice is built into the idea of reincarnation. So in that way, it could be harmful. Yeah, it's harmful because, yeah. But it's only harmful if it's not real, which it could be. Yeah, if it's a lie that you're telling, you're worth a lie if you're telling yourself. Who are losing their arms

because of your unsafe practices that you're factory. Hey, you're like, look, I'm gonna be dead in 20 years and I'm coming back as a do-do guy. I'm gonna be a do-do bug.
