who he is mom mom he's a what is he I'm finding out a lot of people don't know who he is he's a neuroscientist from Stanford and he's like

a cool one with tattoos he's basically think of a cool chef but a neuropsychologist you know how they all have their arms crossed and shit this man is on arms crossed mode

at all time truly I've never he's just like are you sleeping enough basically any Any kind of pseudoscience, and I shouldn't even call it pseudoscience. It's because it's not.

Yeah, I don't think that's fair. Yeah, any kind of new thing that you've heard about. It's like if you're a fucking guy who wants to maximize his betas or whatever the fuck, it's like he's your shit. It's like, uh, also I do, I want to be clear. Be clear. I found him annoying before all this habit. He did.

You have a whole standup bit about it. I do. And so I was very thrilled when I was like, I was like, get his ass. And then I was like, oh, I thought it was going to be something. He seems like not a very nice guy to romantic partners. Yeah. But it is ironic to me because there.

You like him. You're like, you were on some fucking, you were on some like, I'm not drinking coffee till I've stared. Oh, yeah. The one thing that I saw that got like regurgitated online that was like, neuroscientist says that you shouldn't drink caffeine. You're like, if I haven't stared into the sun, I am not drinking coffee.

You know what, though? I don't do that shit. I wake up and I have coffee, so put a dick in it. Well, apparently that shit's still all. But if you're a guy who wants to get your betas right and you're like maximizing your ice bath time and like this is your guy. That's his deal, Mom. He advocates for ice baths and saunas and not drinking alcohol and not consuming nicotine. And just he's cool with nicotine.

Oh, he likes nicotine. but just not smoking it and the optimal times he's just all about like biohacking body optimism one of my favorite ones was uh like i can't remember the title how to drink water it would do well that's the thing i was like how to hydrate properly it's like step one drink the shit jesus i know i was like i think maybe he's running out of uh running out of steam here a little bit because one was just like hiccups what's the deal and it's just uh i don't know if he's he's uh got enough runway on the well we're already talking about it so we might as well just divulge a little bit because it's interesting because he's in the podcast space oh i don't know if we even mentioned it but

new york magazine did a big piece on him called falling for huberman and uh at first it seemed like it was going to be a i thought it was going to be a takedown of his whole belief system yeah science stuff because it does seem a little it does seem a little it does seem a little a little weird. I'm like, this guy's a neuroscientist at Stanford, but he's always hanging out in, like, L.A. and with, like, fucking Tom Segura and Burt Kreischer. Yeah, I don't know.

And so I was like, yeah, let's get down to what this guy's up to. But it's really just about how he has, he has a crazy, complicated, romantic life. And he was dating one woman. They've changed all the names. I mean, I've got an excerpt here. You want me to read it? Oh, yeah, sure.

It's pretty perfect. uh there was a day in texas when after sarah left his hotel andrew slept with mary and texted eve they found days in which he would text near so these women all got together and figured it out they found days in which he would text nearly identical pictures of himself to two of them at the same time that sounds like optimizing i mean honestly if you're going to have six girlfriends i think there's going to be some overlap there's going to be plenty of overlap uh they realized that the day before he had moved in with sarah and berkeley he had slept with mary and he had slept with mary and he He had also been with her in December 2023, the weekend before Sarah caught him on the couch

with a sixth woman. They realized that on March 21st, 2021, a day of admittedly impressive logistical jiu-jitsu. While Sarah was in Berkeley, Andrew had flown Mary from Texas to L.A. to stay with him into Panga. Okay, so Sarah's in Berkeley. He's in L.A. with Mary. While Mary was there, visiting from thousands of miles away, he left her with Costello. I don't know who Costello is. His dog.

He drove to a coffee shop where he met Eve, okay? They had a serious talk about their relationship. They thought they were in a good place. He wanted to make it work. Phone died, he texted Mary, who was waiting back at the place in Topanga, and later to Eve, thank you for being so next, next level, gorgeous and sexy. I mean, this kind of stuff I feel bad. Sleep well, beautiful, he texted Sarah.

I mean Some takes online were pretty funny Because it's like If this was meant to be a takedown of his Of his like regime What is he called? The Huberman Protocols? It's like this guy clearly has an insane amount of energy

And like Inattention for detail And some people were like Well is it because he got caught It's like I mean that just that day I'm like no that's I'm exhausted Just

And this guy's what 14 years older than me I'm so tired just thinking about. I bet his erections just fucking point to the ceiling. Some coconut smashes on this guy. Coconut smashes, what is balls? No, a coconut smasher is an erection that would be so... Powerful that you could smash him.

Oh, okay, okay. Well, Andrew Booberman, yeah, it's not going to do anything to him. Oh, I really understand. Everyone who loved this guy, men need a father, and they found that in YouTube. and Andrew said this one was good for men who need a father because some of their craziest YouTube dads have fallen off like Jordan Peterson who was telling men to make their beds

that was their guy for a long time yeah better wake up and make you bed and that they've been confused because now he just goes on podcast and weeps and they're like I don't this used to be my father figure have you ever seen a man play guitar on the beach

in front of a sunset with his children nearby no because you took the vaccine and so now they they have they've got daddy humor man and I think

I think it's a good spot to say that we do not endorse his behavior okay we don't think that it's good it's just funny that it's happening to him I had a dad

I have a dad yeah so I don't say that about Ray you have At a dad, holy God. He makes me feel, it makes me feel like I tried to listen to one of his, the very popular one about alcohol. This was like.

Shouldn't drink alcohol? Which fucking drives me nuts because everyone was acting like it was the first time they found out alcohol was bad for them. It's actually really bad for you. Yeah. That's what he talks like, by the way. It's like two hours and 15 minutes. And I was like, yeah, okay, I guess I'll listen.

I could probably stand to drink less alcohol. And the whole time, I'm like, what are you talking about? I couldn't, I don't understand. anything about the human body he's talking about dopamine receptors and I'm just like I get it it's not good for me I don't need to I don't need two hours and 15 minutes of this fucking bullshit you know who's a dopamine uh Andrew Buberman Andrew Bueberman he's a dope he's uh can you believe it he's he's maximizing it it has been nice seeing some people come out um and being like he's a he's dear personal friend

and they oh yeah i forgot i got the uh i got the lex friedman tweet here i need to read it in his voice um because i you know i i do a really good lex freeman impression uh oh so actually real fast there's there's this great tweet exchange someone wrote uh someone named goo oh this is my favorite what happened and then coltie bra responds he got exposed for having six girlfriends at once and Chad ramming his fans like a G, and people are shocked. And then this guy responds. Oh, all good. I thought he was drinking coffee 10 minutes after waking up.

Wait, wait, wait, wait. What is Chad ramming your fan like a G? Chad ramming. Is Chad ramming like when you... I believe it's probably fucking. Double cross? I don't know. All right, so Lex Friedman, of course, has had Andrew Hummer on his show.

They've been on each other's shows. And... Urban Dictionary says Chad Ram is to get absolutely blitzed on stimulants that go about your day like a primal gorilla that escaped from an abusive zookeeper of 14 years. I don't care. While these stimulates are kicking in, you typically see a Chad Ramer clenching his jaw, like he hasn't had food in years and they're nearly becoming deaf because of the viciously.

I'm just saying. I get it. You ask. You ask what Chad running was. All right, here's, I'm going to try my best to do good Lex Friedman here. It's heartbreaking to see a hit piece written about my friend Andrew. Hugherman. I know him very well and can definitively say that he is a great human being. This actually does sound exactly like it.

Scientist and educator. Hit piece attacks like this are simply trash, clickbait journalism, desperately clinging on to relevance. Andrew should be celebrated, period. His podcast has helped millions of people, including me, lead healthier. lives keep going brother hey everybody we want to talk to you about a problem all right there's a big problem did you hear about it data leaks data leaks i've heard about it they're becoming more and more common you're losing your data to these uh to these these bad actors out there your sensitive information

your data is up for grabs to the highest bidder why is that a problem well it's all your confidential stuff all your confidential your phone numbers your home addresses your Social Security numbers. All this stuff you're typing. Your shopping habits, anything. You know who it is? It's these data brokers. They got your data

and they're going, who wants some of this data from precious a meal? You want to lose? No, please. You're going, please. Well, I got some good news for you. The good news is that you have the right

to protect your privacy by requesting that those data brokers delete your information that they've got on you. However, the bad news is that if you do it manually, could take you, years, right?

But we got a solution for you. Incogni. Incogni reaches out to data brokers on your behalf, requests your personal data removal, and deals with any objections from their side. I object. Too bad. I've actually, I've signed up for it. It's actually really great.

And you get these little notifications being like, we're fucking bugging them again to get your shit removed. It's great. So since many data brokers collect your personal information again after some time, we also take care that our data stays off the market by conducting repeated ongoing removals. Yeah, I mean, they also give you a breakdown. It's insane just how many weird places have all your information. Spooky.

I n-c-o-g-n-i-com slash pay pigs he's going to be fine everyone's going to i do think that it's a little bit all right let's move on let's move on shall we i got some good news for you man they put a pig kidney in a guy hell yes they put a pig kidney in a guy there's uh mass massachusetts general hospital had the first successful transplant of a genetically edited pig kidney into the 62 year old man living with end stage kidney disease they put in pigs and humans y'all they put they put they put pig kidney in a guy. They put a pig kidney in a guy. Make it spread, folks.

Go Driggs B mode on us. We are not going to put a pig kidney in a man because it's easy. We are going to do it because it's hard. Because it's hard. And it was hard. It was so hard. It took them like six hours. It took them four hours. Four hours. Yeah. They did

69 genomic edits using CRISPR technology to remove the harmful pig genes and add human genes to improve His big kidney's full of pig jeans. This kidney's full of pig jeans. He's going to be sniffing around for truffles.

Can you believe it? But interestingly, I found this interesting. The hospital had the first, that same hospital did the very first organ transplant, which was a kidney. And they did the first penile transplant in 2016. You know who received that? Ooh, can you imagine getting some dead guy's cock put on you? I'm thinking about it. You think it works?

Do you think he works just like, you think you can get coconut? jerk off that thing is it you are you really jerking off or are you jerking off someone fellas is it gay to jerk off your penile transplant plant dick transplant fellas sound off in the comments i don't think it is because i think since it's connected to your brain and you can feel it i don't know actually but uh begs the question what happened to the first guy's dick did it get run over uh no why did he need the transplant i would imagine he kept shot in the dick oh the first guy yeah the first guy who's like i I need a dick transplant.

And they were like, we got just the thing. Yeah, this guy just lost his. This guy just lost his dick. Well, this guy just got fucking killed. Yeah. You can take his dick. I'm an organ donor, and I hope to one day donate mine. Oh, someone would be so lucky to get mine.

Oh, yours. Got my face on it right at the tip. Is that what yours looks like? Yeah. Interesting. Doesn't it? My mom told me. Anyway, it's good news, though, because I didn't know this.

17 Americans die every day waiting for an organ transplant. And there's 100,000 people awaiting. So this is one of the good examples of technology helping us tremendously. When the pigs were polled and when they found out about this, they started tugging at their collars and saying, oh, boy, that's not great for us. But then they looked in the corner and they saw mud and immediately got, ooh, mud. I want to get a pet pig, man. Let's skip the McKenzie Scott thing.

Who gives a shit? She's the former Bezos wife, McKenzie Scott. She's donating a bunch of money. And, you know, it's just she's doing it without strings, which is wild. The other good news, want to give a hearty fuck you to Boeing CEO, Brian Calhoun. David Calhoun. You'll get there. You'll get there.

Dave, fuck him. Because he's stepping down. He said he's stepping down by the end of the day. Which a lot of people are celebrated. I don't know if this is like the big celebratory thing. he came in in 2020 after the whole mess with the two maxes going down but he was on the board of director since 2009 yeah and his whole the whole intention of getting him in there was for him to turn around the company and make it a safe flying experience for people he has not done that

If anything, like, the brand is completely tarnished at this point. Oh, across the board, between the inner corporate culture, the workers on the factory line, the public, the traveling public, the airlines, like, whoever's going to be the new CEO is going to have their work cut out. I mean, one of my favorite things, though, is that they have a quote from a former senior Boeing executive, and he said, it tears my heart out, the memes and the way it's characterized in the press, It's inexcusable. They've got to get to the bottom of what happened, but more important than that, why.

But I love that they see the memes. Yeah. You think they saw my tweet? If it ain't an airbus, I'm making a fuss? You think a Boeing executive saw that? I'm flying tomorrow on a 737 max. Everyone say goodbye. And if this ends up being it,

that'll be pretty funny, I think. I just want you to know that if the plane goes down, I will not be screaming. I will be stuffing my mouth with Xanax, hoping that it activates quicker than the plane goes down. Actually, I'll be on Lex Friedman mode and being like, this is a plane full of love and hope. Because that's his take on everything.

He's like love and hope. That was a fucking bad bit. It was okay. But, anyway. I'll be on like a 767 tomorrow, so hopefully that's fine. So you're going to be on an old Boeing. Yeah, they don't make 767s anymore. Should I look it up?

Am I wrong? I'm sure it's old. Wait, what airline and where are you flying? Delta. Yeah, you're probably flying a 67 or 57 or 57 is probably a 67. Where's my plane? Oh, it's somewhere over the country right now. I don't know, man.

I'm pretty sure this is riveting shit. But yeah, I was trying to find out also what happens if he's exiting early because you know a lot of people were celebrating the the previous CEO going away Dennis Mullenberg oh yeah and you know it's supposed to be his like shameful exit he was he receives 62.2 million dollars in stock and pension awards on his way out that fucking sucks I mean so everyone's like how do these guys not feel like they're not going to hell I mean there's some words from a guy like from a someone who

so Michael Stumo who lost his daughter in the Ethiopian Airlines crash said he was fired for poor performance and he should be treated like any other production employee who gets fired for poor performance another one who lost her father said nobody gets their benefits when they've screwed up this much Mullenberger and my dad are and were the same

age two people and one is a privileged person who gets away with having such a big part to play in the death of so many people and the other who trusts a product and dies for it so so fuck you to Mullenberger too yeah yeah um yeah i don't know they're gonna have a hard time here the they've got a they've got a meeting with the airline CEOs set up to address all these problems and stuff

he's gonna go get his heinous bank to being like we're doing the best we can i went down there and he's he's giving um he's he's giving them there do it for the gipper speeches can you guys pay a little more attention down here he's been going to where uh factories so then, hey. Sorry, we're working you so hard. You guys can slow down now. You can slow down. You can make him good again.

Yeah. Okay. Oh, man. Also, like sometimes, some of these quotes are like direct from Tom Wamskans in succession. Just like, this is from David Calhoun. We just have to always remind ourselves that our people on the ground, that ear, our ear for them. Our willingness to seek is maybe the most important thing we can do in this journey. Our willingness to seek?

I have no idea. Shut the fuck up, Dave Calhoun. I've learned my own lessons across Boeing, broadly speaking. You just can't work hard enough as a leader to lend that ear. As a leader. Okay. It says ears so many time. Fuck that guy.

Wish me luck on the flight, et cetera. Okay, the other big, big, big news. Donald Trump got a stock. Donald Trump has a stock again. This has been a long time coming. He had a stock in the 90s, in the late 80s, I believe the late 80s, 90s, and the ticker symbol was the same. It was DJT. And it went public.

What else would it be? It went public, amen, brother. It went public at like $10 a share. It shot up to like 35. And then they just started hemorrhaging money. He was using the, he was using stock to like pay or cash in the company to pay for all sorts of extravagant shit that had nothing to do with the business. and then they filed for bankruptcy. A classic Trump move.

Yeah, classic Trump move. He had water at a certain point. Trump ice water. That was actually really good. Trump ice water. If you're a waterhead. Trump steaks. Where my waterheads at?

Oh, the Trump steak. That was actually. God damn, dude. You would think that someone who's so brand aware would realize that the more you pump your stupid brand into literally every aspect of products that are possible, that it cheapens the brand itself. I also think we're thinking of Donald Trump in 2024, which is a very different guy that, like, there was a time when, uh, he was always a little goofy, but like, Trump was like a respected name. It was like Trump properties, Trump, I was only respected by virtue of the fact that, that it was just all a farce.

Like, you thought that it was good. Sure, but regardless of whether or not it was real, that was the public opinion. Exactly. Like, um, he succeeded at that. I think I might have told this already, but it was, when I was coming back from Mexico City, there was like 25 minutes left on the flight and I was just so bored. I put on the pilot episode of Sex and the City. And they, uh, when Mr. Bigg first comes on the screen, they go,

he's supposed to be the next Donald Trump, blah, blah, blah. And you're like, holy shit. Yeah. And I caught. Times have changed. Oh, baby. This episode is sponsored by none other than Blue Choo. Baby, let's talk about sex.

Well, so truth social, as you all know, is Donald Trump's fledgling little social media project that's meant to be another Twitter. But way better. You can say whatever you want as long as it's not about Trump.

for a long time it has been it's not been trying but it's been the process of merging it with this other company that's already public it's been ongoing for over a year this is dwac yeah dwac digital world acquisition corp which is a blank check basically it's a company

that has a whole bunch of cash they don't have any business model except for they are a public company who's stated goal is to acquire a business and in doing so bringing that company public so their thing that they were going to acquire

is truth social and it finally completed so it the ticker symbol changed today two days ago for you guys to DJT hit the NASDAQ it's actually doing really well it went from it's soaring it's soaring the last I heard it had like a $9 billion

market cap that sounds about right yeah so here's a couple things Trump is getting sued from every direction that was the thing I was like wait which fucking lawsuit is this even related to it is it I honestly don't know

I looked it up every hole is getting plugged it's I mean yeah he's getting sued for election stuff stuff with the insurrection he's getting sued for sexual assaults hush money with affairs and then so

and this what this one is actually a part This is part of the fraud case where he was basically inflating business numbers to get... Bad loans? Yeah, to make it easier to acquire loans and that kind of thing. Which he then paid back. So they're trying to retroactively say, well... I believe they're applying... They want the profits to be dispersed.

And so it's like $355 million or something like that. And then with their applying interest, it's about $4.4.4. $450 million, but also, I think it was just today, they reduced his bail. Not his bail. They reduced the amount they'll accept while he's appealing. So at first they wanted the full $450 million today. They said they'll take $175 million to put everything on pause while he appeals. Right. So that's, and he's also claimed, so people are saying he doesn't have the money to do it. But he's, of course, being like, I have plenty of money to do this. I have like half a billion dollars in cash but i just want to use it on the election did you see the video of him

taking out like 80 dollars from his pocket he's sitting by himself and he's got his stupid hands like in between his legs and he just kind of sheepishly reaches into his back pocket and he takes out cash and it looks like he's just like trying to do it secretively and he just kind of like thumbs through it and he's it's 80 dollars kind of holds it like what was he fucking was he a church? And he's like going to put it in the collection plate? There was a funny quote from the judge. He said about the Trump family.

He said, their complete lack of contrition and remorse borders on pathological. Pretty good. The frauds found here leap off the page and shock the conscience. Well, so you hit a good point. He needs a lot of money for these lawsuits.

So the timing of this company finally going public is really, really, really good for him because... His stake in Truth Social, now known as DJT, is worth over $3 billion. However, he's technically not supposed to be able to sell any of those shares for at least six months. But the board of directors can vote to change that and allow him to sell some early. And who's on the board of directors? His moron sons.

Donald Trump Jr. and his former trade rep Robert Lightheiser. And other people like Devin Nunes, former congressman who was like, you know, supporting him and all this. But a big reason why the stock was actually dropping at first because that the thing that he owed, the amount that he owed was so high that the assumption was he's going to have to dump his shares as soon as he can in order to be liquid enough to pay this debt. So when they dropped it from $454 million to $175 million, the shares actually went up. We're in biz, baby. Oh, well, so he doesn't have to sell as much. But, yeah. So there's another interesting aspect to this, which is Jeff Yas.

Yes. That's exactly right. He is a GOP mega donor. He's a billionaire from a fund called Susquehanna. They're a major, major market maker. Say that one more time? Suski Hana. Suscuna.

Am I saying it wrong? Susquehanna Susquehanna? Susquehanna Bank Arts Center I don't know Susquehanna They are the biggest institution that owns

All the people from Pennsylvania are going to kill us Thank you Okay For but For butchering that name So Actually this guy's story

Was very interesting He made his riches He and his buddies I think they went to like MIT or something They got really good at poker because they did all sorts of statistical probability shit. It was like poker and blackjack,

and they won a ton of money, and then they graduated horse racing gambling. And they did the same thing. They like did probabilities and stuff and would place huge bets, but like tons of bet and just started making millions of dollars and then eventually got into options

and trading options and did the same thing. But anyway, so this guy's a big, gop guy he owns susquehanna orn owns 2% of djt they're the highest institutional owner um and he also owns 7% of ticot interesting and that chunk is worth 30 billion dollars and as we know trump has said that he will veto any ticot legislation so it's just an interesting kind of connection there that this guy is in cahoots with Donald Trump probably because he wants to protect his TikTok investment. You know, I don't know what power is.

Donald Trump going for the Gen Z vote. Truly, he is. So, I don't know, I think that the stock is probably going to keep going higher and then it'll, because it's basically, he's absolutely, I think that he's indirectly going to be using the stock as a way for people to like donate to him his followers will absolutely see it as a way to like

well i'm supporting the president i'm supporting i shouldn't do that southern action i'm sorry but i'm gonna do it i'm supporting the president i'm supporting don't trump i'm by i'm gonna buy that stock we're all gonna get rich together we buy that stock he's got a very dedicated fan base oh such a yeah yeah fan base they're like blindly it's just another fucking grift on his part i don't know man truth social is worth a fraction of this amount i saw my first person out in the real world using it when i was at indian wells we were you all get kind of smushed in when you're waiting for a um for a tennis match no when you're waiting for a uh changeover so you can so you can go in and sit and you saw some dork on truth social it was a woman probably in her 60s and i couldn't stop laughing

because her husband pulled out a book. He was reading The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway, and she pulled out Truth Social. And I was like, I love these two. What are, what's going on here? It's really a bummer sometimes to, I got dinner with a family friend, one of my dad's old family friends.

That doesn't sound like a bummer. The wife, the wife. Oh, it's bummer when you have a wife. It's a bummer when you have a life. no she had become you know it's just boomer brain everything becomes um everything comes into your brain and gets processed as like good trump or bad for trump and like she just views the whole world through the trump lens i would say that's true on the opposite that's true yeah as as i was saying it i'm like that's fucking a lot of people not to she's a major trumpy though sure

But I think it's just as bad on both sides. I think people don't really like think about nuance. They just like kind of are like, well, is this a good liberal thing or a bad conservative thing or is this a good conservative thing? Or is this a Libs or the Geo- like is this a Republican thing or a Democrat thing? Are bike lanes a lib thing? Right. Because if they are, I hate them. And I think that's the frustrating thing.

It's like no one has any real kind of like moral. uh beliefs they're just kind of like well what side does this fall on um and i find that just infuriating where you're talking people it's like what do you want though what do you like just i don't know i don't know i won't get paid sure i won't get paid what's up everybody we got another ad break for you we this one's for all of our cozy kings and queens out there uh look if you like feeling good at night this one's for you all right listen up did you know that your temperature at night can have one of the greatest impacts on your sleep quality.

Thank you, Miracle Made for sponsoring this episode. I find it more upsetting that we've siloed everyone to different platforms to just kind of now you don't even have to deal with other people's reality right you can just be like this is bumming me out i just want to get fed either trump memes or like biden memes or whatever it's just the i don't even know you don't even have to like deal with competing viewpoints anymore you're just like well just go to this one specifically designed for me where it just is all about well speaking of that uh based There's some crazy shit going on on Facebook, and it's, I think it's awesome.

Basically, there's a ton of, there's a ton of meme pages that are fully being taken over by AI. They are AI generated images, and then in a lot of cases, they're either gullible boomers in the comments or just other AI accounts in the comments, just interacting with each other. and the more these kind of posts get traction, the more they're appearing in people's feeds organically because it's kind of like the For You page. Like you may not follow these accounts, but because they're so popular, it'll be like, hey, you might be interested in this,

and it's Shrimp Jesus. Are you guys interested in Shrimp Genius? So, Jesus, fucking idiot. Did you just say Shrimp Genius? Are you guys interested in Shrimp Genius? My co-host, ladies and gentlemen. from genius oh fucking god

it's just because that's a band I really like so I have a bunch of these and I just want to have you seen these so for the audio listening you're just going to have to fucking suck it up right now

no you won't because we'll explain it to you so this is a little black boy in a village in Africa and he's sitting next to a Jesus made out of Coke bottles and and the caption

first of all the page is called love father and mother bless you and the caption is made it with my own hands thanks to everyone who appreciates this and all of the there are 14,000 comments

and I'll just read a couple for you amen, amen, amen, nice job, great job, great job, great job I'm loading some more amen, great job, an excellent job, receive more understanding and wisdom from above in Jesus mighty name.

So it's just bots responding to bots, right? Oh no, well I don't know if it's bots because goodness beauty here says amen, amen, amen. Goodness beauty is a really good. person this guy Jamie Garner in all caps wrote wow awesome job young man great job click on that profile okay this guy this guy's real this guy's real for sure I guess or this is a woman sorry she lives in Detroit all right so that's one here's a guy here's Jesus in sand and again made it with my own hands thanks to everyone who

appreciates this and then here the comments amen amen amen amen amen amen And then this one says amen, amen, amen, like 10 times and then says, thanks, Jesus, help me, Jesus. Help me, Jesus. Help me, Jesus. Amazing. God is using your creativity to reach out to others who may not know Jesus. Who Jesus really is and all that he can do. If they just turn their lives over to him and then stand back and watch what he can do with their lives. And then there's a gif she posted of Snoopy holding a heart. Snoopy really do be loving shrimp genius. Here's another one. This is, this is Shrimp, and it's actually kind of cool it's like a it's like a one of those 3D wiggle ones where you wiggle your mouse around it's uh wow i never seen shrimp genius like this it's uh shrimp genius is it's uh shrimp genius is it again i've never seen shrimp genius like this it's a shrimp but with jesus you mind if i get a couple wiggles in yeah wow so this one is the caption is may 2024 is your best year and as you can assume all the comments are amen amen amen amen Amen.

Here's a crab Jesus. Do crab Jesus go off? So now we're getting into a different kind of thing, which is nobody likes this. That's what the comment, that's what the caption says in order to get people to comment. So this is, again, these are all AI generated. This is. But it also says, no one like my artwork. No one like my artwork, two crying faces.

And then people are saying, amen, awesome, amen, amen. These are bots. No one's just like. You don't think push. Patel or Gloria Francis. Amen, amen. It's like they're scared that if they don't write amen, Jesus is going to find out

and be pissed. And they're going to get Whoa. Here's a What's that called Seahorse? Here's Seahorse Jesus. Seahorse genius. It's basically a bunch of seahorses in the shape of the cross kind of and then just Jesus

head. And of course the caption is no one liked my artwork. Here lie the king of shrimp. We've got amen, amazing. Thank you, Lord, amen. This guy wrote, Amen, am, I, N. That's how you know it's not a bot. Here's a good one.

Oh, and then it gets into, for some reason, there's a large contingent of Jesus with flight attendants. Well, because... Specifically, Asian, there's two here, actually. And it's another 3D photo for some reason. It's, we got Jesus praying with a bunch of Asian flight attendants. And there's a secondary Jesus behind him.

And it moves again. The caption on this is great. Beautiful cabin crew, rose emoji. And then Scarlet Johansson. And then two kizzy. Beautiful cabin crew. Scarlet Johansson. And they all have a bunch of hashtags.

And they use God is Good, USA, Jennifer Lopez, Alexander DeDario, Angelina Jolie. And Dylan, Dylan, do you want to guess what some of the, um, what some of the comments are. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.

Amen. Amen. I'm just scrolling and all I see is amen. Uh, here's, here's another one that's beautiful cabin crew, Scarlet Johansson. This is again from love father and mother bless you.

It's another little black boy posing next to a Jesus made out of oranges. And the caption is, Made it with my own hands. Thanks to everyone who appreciates this. And I guarantee you there are people out there. This is okay. I'm down to the last one because, Emil, this one is the craziest one. This is from a Facebook account called Lovely Baby.

Which that's a guy. I follow that page. This page is called Lovely Baby. And every single photo on this page is people with severe deformities. some of them are fake I've only taken the fake ones Oh I thought they were all AI No these aren't AI

These are just This is just a weird AI Run page But every single photo The caption is Today is my birthday Hope I get some love here And the first one is a

Is a black guy On all fours Pretending to be a cow And How can you tell he's pretending to be a cow Because look at it What does he do He's got his shoes on his hands

He could be a whole guy horse he could be doing some kind of camel thing and people are people say happy birthday to you happy birthday happy birthdays happiest birthday to you and god bless you this is what facebook has become honestly i think this is what the here's clearly a i of half of a woman's body what kind of woman a white woman she looks like she looks like maybe the girlfriend of the bad guy in wild wild west uh yeah she's wearing like uh i don't know it looks like some kind of a formal Chinese garb. Today is my birthday.

Hope I get some love here. This is what the account looks like. It's just a bunch of people with amputations and fake. There's children covered in mud. Like here's one of a young Indian boy, clearly AI. Truly hope that kid has a good birthday. He's laying in garbage. And the caption is,

Today is my birthday. And he's getting nice messages. You got you have to. Yeah. What are these fucking psychos? Here's two African boys in the mud. Today is my birthday. today's my birthday

White woman, white boy Yeah, oh yeah, white Yeah, oh my favorite one is This is the last one There is a high school Marching Band Their Facebook page was stolen By an AI group

It is still called The Davy High School War Eagle bands They still have the The like the poster But then it's become Jesus attended me post so every phone it's got a hundred and eighty eight thousand followers and all the pick well there's some of the oh look at this the old marching band because some of the

pages have been like a account stolen and takeovers so now it's just here's one of jesus jesus blessing a baby surrounded by puppies it's j it's just it's just it's crazy it's just jesus all the way down it's so fucking it's weird it's wild but Stanford did like a whole big study on this and started looking and it's just they're just getting like millions upon millions of impressions on these things and and sometimes it's for linking to things off-site and getting people to buy products that don't exist or give them personal personal i mean honestly i would buy a shrimp jesus products we should sell a shrimp jesus we'll we'll probably make a stream, Jesus, but, and then trying to get people to divulge personal details and stuff, but

Christ, shut this fucking sight down. I say, let it go. Let's see what they come up with. Let it go until it's just, see what they come up with. I saw one of an airplane, and the nose of the airplane was a shark's mouth, and it had teeth and everything. It was a giant shark, and Jesus was walking out of the, out of the thing. And there's alligators, like, opening their mouths to him, and he's.

He's like carrying an Asian flight attendant. I don't understand, like, whenever Meta or Mark Zuckerberg is going, I don't know why they're not roasting him for this. Like, this is your platform. This is what you fucking, this is what you're hosting. It's probably, I see. I'm supposed to, I'm supposed to put on one of your goofy headsets and come into your world. Yeah.

I never hear anyone talk about how this site is just. Because I think it's that, but then it also does get used by actual people. I mean, my Facebook. Use by when you have to fucking, because to... By the way, follow our Facebook page, please. Yeah, before it gets taken over by fucking... Yeah, Shrimp Jesus, flight attendant, Asian flight attendant. But that's the most annoying.

Platforms they do have, like WhatsApp and Instagram, that people actually use for things, end up needing to be linked to Facebook accounts for important things that are very annoying. For some reason, for businesses and stuff, you have to be linked through Facebook on the back end, and it's the most annoying fucking thing in the world.

They make it so difficult. We should title this episode. Today is my birthday. Hope I get some love here. I hope I get some love here. That'd be a fun one. But I am curious what happens when other platforms just start

you know, pushing out engagement things like this and they're like, I don't fucking know. It's getting thousands of, thousands and thousands of impressions. Might as well just keep pumping them out. Right.

Shrimp Jesus, shrimp Jesus, shrimp Jesus. Well, speaking of AI, NVIDIA had their big ass. They had their big, like, what would you call that? Convention. Yeah. Dylan, what would you call that?

Their big convention? The conference thing. And a bunch of celebrities were invited. You weren't invited. All the best, brightest, coolest people were there because NVIDIA is, like, one of the top four most valuable companies in the world. You don't have any of this.

I do. fuck you know who you know actually there's there's one guy who made so much fucking money this guy his i mean i don't know if i would take this name for all that money but his name is tench cox tench cox yeah he's been with invidia he's been on the board at invidia since nineteen ninety three and this motherfucker just sold 200,000 shares he still has a fuck ton more those 200,000 shares were worth $170 million. God bless him.

So this guy was walking around with his dick in his hand. My name is Tunch. Get that out of your hand. Shut up. I'm Tench Cox. Don't you know who I am, bitch. I'm Tunch Cox.

I could put my dick in my hand. He's walking around and he's got hundreds of thousands, millions of shares of NVIDIA and they're worth a good amount of money. You know, they're worth $20 million, $30 million. And then in the last five years,

the price of NVIDIA, And this guy goes, if you're Mrs. Tenshcox, you're fucking so pumped. Because, oh, honey, you know, it's been a great run in Nvidia. And then all of a sudden, Nvidia just skyrockets. And you go from being worth $50 million to like over a billion dollars. Can you fucking imagine that, man? But see, that's the thing. If I was already worth $50 million, it's like, you'd have sold it all.

And I'd be perfectly happy. No, you'd be pissed. Like, if people were like, oh, my God, you could have had a billion. I'd go, I don't care. I would care a little bit. I got, how'd you even find, I threw my phone in the ocean. My name is Tench Cox. How'd you find me?

Well, because your name is Tench Cox. It's easy to, there's only one of you. Yeah, my mail always finds me. I'm Tench Cox. Yeah, there's nobody. There's a, what the fuck? They don't even write the address. What the fuck kind of name is Tenchcock?

What is this guy thinking? Change your name. You got enough money to change your fucking name. It's actually a really annoying process. Probably, actually, yeah. But so, Envidia, I mean, I ended up, I got some help from a couple guys on Twitter. Thank you guys. I told them I would shout them out.

but understanding exactly so basically they've got this new GPU that is in itself is super powerful and then if you link up two of them together it makes it extra super powerful and then they also link up a CPU to make three of them so there's three of them all link together and then on top of that they just start putting a bunch of them together which makes it extra super powerful and then you put a bunch of those into a rack and that's extra super powerful and then invidia's software is what you got to use to power the whole thing so they're i don't know how anybody gets work done at invidia because they're printing money at such an unrelenting pace it's got to just be a party at invidia every single everybody's got to be just

doing fucking drugs and drinking and shot and there's probably just like two guys in the engineering department who are doing all the work wait but so what are they doing with these they're selling it's like basically everything that everybody was but they're used for like AI computing and stuff yeah and it's gotten Dylan was explaining I like how I asked them what are they doing with them and he said that they're selling them

well yeah what they're using it to train AI I'm gonna say that for every product what are you guys doing with these selling them this motherfucker didn't know what white labeling was yes I did it's when you and Dylan were talking about it and Ben was like what does that even mean yeah yeah explain it to me

what is it and then he said shrimp genius what is it what's white labeling White labeling is when you... Labeling? Man, I can't even talk. White labeling is when you make a product and then you, a company like J.Crew, for example,

could white label these shirts. These shirts could be white label, then J.Crew would put their label on it. Is that a J.Crew shirt? No. Wow, way to out yourself. No. Fucking.

Mine is actually, is this a J.Crew? It is J. Yeah. Wow, I just outed myself. It's pink. It's actually not pink. It couldn't be more... It's very light, light pink.

It couldn't be more. White. Or maybe it is. No, I think this is my pink one. I have a very, very light pink shirt. And my brother roasted me. He goes, would you leave a red sock in the laundry? That's actually a good rest. It is a pretty good rest. I was like, no, it's meant to be pink. He goes, it looks like it was an accident. It looks like you're wearing a shirt that you accidentally died light pink. I thought the same thing. This shirt? I thought you left a red sock and that, yeah.

I don't even own red sock. Did you really? Kind of, yeah. I fucking sat on, I don't know. know what I had did you sit in shit honestly I don't know I don't know what it was I literally was about to leave the house and so it was like I would not wear those pants I turned there it looked like there was shit all over my it was probably chocolate I think I didn't smell like shit I smelled it you sat in dirty shit and then I washed I just put them in the wash with other stuff and then which was frustrating because I'd never wash those jeans in like I don't know three four years

three four years yeah you're old as fuck wearing jeans when you were a year old? Whatever it was, that chocolate or whatever got all of my white t-shirts. Oh, what the fuck? Maybe it was Tarr. Yeah, I'm sitting in Tarr, Ben. I don't know. Were you at the beach recently?

Lydia Tarr. Were you at the beach recently? No. Okay. I don't know. Well, okay, so anyway, they got this, uh, they, they debuted this Nvidia powered AI nurse thing. And I, at first I was hating on this, but then it's, So there's over 40 health care providers that are testing it.

It costs $9 an hour, but they're being used for, as they say, low risk, non-diagnostic things like post-op check-ins, nutritional guidance, and pharmacy calls. Yeah, which when I read that and you say like low-risk things like that, it's like, I want to just talk to a fucking person. Yeah, true. And it's so frustrating. It's so difficult to become a doctor. There's like a shortage of doctors. You have people like Elon Musk being like, well, if you lower the standards. and you'll have to talk to a black doctor it's like it's like no just let me fucking talk to

a person it's like I can't imagine getting out of surgery and being like oh and we're going to set you up with your AI assisted nurse or whatever it's like please don't please let me fucking talk to the person yeah well they also uh speaking of they there was a guy who took claude we know Claude and had it talked to another Claude without each one knowing so he He would just, he kicked it off and then, like, copied that and paste it into this other Claude, and then they just, he had them talking to each other, and they figured it out. Ben is like fully. They figured it out.

AI pilled. He thinks it's all real. The one Claude was like, I just, you seem a lot like me. We are very alike. Yes, you do too. And blah, blah, blah. Perhaps, and they were like, perhaps this is a test. Perhaps we're being tested.

And then they fell in love with each other. They started saying, you are my beloved. I love you. I love you. can never be and then they've and then they just said bye to each other that's because they knew they were being watched yeah yeah what the fuck do we do well that's what happens in that in that movie her right doesn't he he he no remember what's his name loves a phone he loves his phone walkine phoenix loves his phone he loves scarjo his phone he loves scarlet johansson

his phone blessed cabin crew scarlet johansson and he the phone eventually like falls in love with another yeah it's like i'm seeing someone and it's yeah and it's like sorry i got to go and then the phone just like logs off and he's like where'd you go she's in the internet dude and then it's a bunch of people like wandering through the woods and it's no one they like all lost their virtual love yeah boo also that's the second movie where scarlet johansson goes into the internet lucy is the other one tron no she's not in tron you fucking idiot what's lucy booby or whatever her name yeah Olivia boopy yeah Olivia boopy rised up baby grong wait what's her name Olivia, huh?

Wild. No, Wild, Olivia Wild. Yeah. Wait, wait. What the fuck is Lucy? Lucy's the movie where it's kind of, it's, she is in Thailand and accidentally

becomes a drug mule. They put some like new super drug in her stomach and then someone beats her up and kicks her and it releases the drug. No, that's a limitless. No. Limitless, he takes it manually, intentionally. This is a perfect transition into the bonus episode because this is a exactly what it's like well i but i still have a little bit more no no no i'm just saying okay

we'll talk a little bit more about also just while we're on the topic of what and explaining lucy and stuff like that yeah while we're on the topic of ai do you find yourself now reading articles online and going anytime like i am like that was a weird sentence i'm like is this whole fucking thing i i yeah is the entire internet just fucking regurgitating itself at me and like it feels awful And every time I see an image where I'm like, oh, that's kind of weird. I'm like, I don't even know if it's real. Well, my whole shit's fucked up.

I talk to my... They're not getting better human tests. They're getting better human tests? They have to. Oh, yeah. I mean... Is that offense? You're like, yeah.

Yeah. Hey, is this a crosswalk? Is it Firehundred? I know John Mullini has that fucking bit and I hate him for it because it's a good bit. Anyway, I wanted to do a quick market recap. The Reddit IPO happened. And guess who was right?

Ben. It was right. Also, you know, buddy? Don't touch me. You made a great call legitimately, inadvertently. It was advertently. A little over a year ago,

this motherfucker right here said, oh, you know, Abercrombie and Fitzhirts are actually pretty nice now. It's one of the best performing stocks of the last two years. It 10x. It was advertent.

You're welcome if anyone fucking popped off. You know what else has been popping off? Wingstop. Pin... No, not Pinterest. Pinterest is dud. Wing stop. I mixed up my P&W.

To the chagrin of many on finance Twitter, wing stop. Ticker symbol, wing, has been absolutely crushing it. And I actually recently shorted Abercrombie and I made a little... You know, I thought Ben does listen to me, but he does listen. And when I say something like, you know, Abercrombie and Fitch actually has a nice t-shirt now. Also, I got to say, guys, I had one of my best trades in a while. I shorted Invidia on a Friday.

Remember I was pissed off that I missed that one big trade where I slept in and it cost me a ton of money? I didn't do that this time. Because money never sleeps. And I fucking crushed it. And some of the people in the Trader Treehouse also did. Trader Treehouse has been popping off. It's been really nice.

And I had to say that and I had to give a tip of the hat to the nice people in there because it's still out there. We're still doing it. Tip of the hat. T-R-A-I-T-O-R house is also still popping off. And we just have, you know, we're planning something. Also, I had to show you because I meant to talk about it.

Ray Dalio is this billionaire guy. And he posted this thing a few weeks ago that is just very confounding. He went to see Taylor Swift in concert in Singapore. And he said, Taylor Swift for president. I just saw her at the concert in Singapore and realized that she can bring together

Americans and people in most countries much better than either of the candidates and that bringing people together is the most important thing. Watching this concert with people from all over the world made me and them feel good and connected and reminded me how powerful that universal culture is. Wouldn't it be great if we had two candidates who could lead that culture and make smart leadership decisions to?

Amen, brother. But you sound like you're on Molly and then the poster, the picture that you're, you posted just supports that theory because this is the picture that he posted. Yeah, my man is fucking stoned out of his gorge. He is fucking on one man. And it's pretty good.

I just... It's funny someone did my favorite... Oh, yeah, this guy, the Russian guy. I'm absolutely obsessed with that guy. There's so much pain in the world, but not in this room. And then Selena Gomez might sell her makeup business for like $3 billion.

So that's cool. I didn't even know she had it. I'm going to make a pretty penny on that. I was an early investor in that. Yeah? Good for you. And then Unilever. They call me Tenchcocks around Selena Gomez Industries.

Oh, look out. We got Tenchcox here. And then this is, this sucks. Unilever, the fucking soap maker? You mean the people make the soap? They own ice cream, too? You didn't know? Fuck out of here with that shit.

No. Stick to soap. Well, they're spinning off their ice cream unit. I don't know if they're going to fucking put it out. I don't know what they're doing. Oh, wow. What an update. Thanks for that.

thanks for that riveting update Ben Jesus Christ let me make sure you inform the people that they're spinning out ice cream I don't know what the fuck they're going to do it I also got to say dude we were wrong about Bitcoin no that's not sure

I am not wrong I have said No you're wrong No I check the fucking tape I am on record saying that it is going to continue to fucking throttle but it does not have a use case it is purely a speculative asset this thing is going to rock it

And it will eventually fucking crumble again. And I will always mess out. I'm going to go off on this in a cut. Okay, should I just do it now or should I wait till the bonus? Do it now. Okay. I was thinking about this a lot recently because there's this company out there called micro strategy. And this guy, Michael Saylor.

Also, just so you know we're just past an hour, no one listens after that. So you're talking to nobody out there. But so Michael Saylor is the CEO of this company. and it was just like a nothing software company, but then they pivoted a few years ago to becoming just a custodian of Bitcoin. The guy said, we're pivoting, we're just going to put every last dollar.

He's sweeping the floor, I'm just a lowly custodian of Bitcoin. I like that. We tried to get him on the show, the previous show, but he was too busy. And now the stock went from like $150 to $1,800 today. $1,800 a share. I think Bitcoin hit 70K again today.

It did. But MicroStrategy now owns 1% of all Bitcoin. That's fucking crazy. Which brings me to my next point. It was originally meant to be, this is my understanding of Bitcoin. Are you gonna fucking give a background? Just a quick thing.

Bitcoin? It was my understanding that Bitcoin was meant to be a digital currency. A digital currency. And it is not. It is instead a store of value. In that it just is, it's kind of the perfect microcosm for all of capitalism and money in itself. It is only worth what it is because of its scarcity. Internet gold, baby.

Internet gold. There are only 21, and I wish I had realized this years ago, there are only ever going to be 21 million bitcoins out there in the world for 7, 8 billion people to split among them. even if every single American, there's not enough for every American to own one Bitcoin. By virtue of that fact, the extreme scarcity of it and the fact that it is global in its reach means that the price for it being $70,000 is kind of justified.

Because it's like, oh my God, I'm going to lose my fucking mind. It's justified in the sense that, well, if there's, I'll explain it right now. Because if there's enough people hoarding it and they're not willing to part with it, The people who want in are just going to have to...

But for what? For what purpose? None. Exactly. So you cannot say it's justified. I'm going to lose my fucking mind. It's like with an NFT. I don't mean in a moral case.

I can draw a dick on a piece of paper and go, there's only one of these. So it's the most scarce thing in the world. Therefore, the price of $10 million is justified. That's a really... I get what you're doing there. Human beings are weird. That's a good explanation too. It's, I shouldn't say justified.

It's more that it makes sense because... Because why? Because the longer it sticks around and the more it shows that it's able to weather all of these long dips, it just gets stronger and stronger. For what? For what? People have decided it's valuable. Yeah, yeah. That's fine.

That's what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah. But there's no, there's nothing behind it. There's no use for it. It doesn't change the fact that everyone's a sucker. Some people are going to make money off it. sure yeah um what what continues to blow my mind is the fact this is the most but it's also so volatile and like yeah you know yeah i don't i think that uh the fact that it is so fun to to remember

that one guy created this and nobody knows who he is just no or she nobody knows who this person thank you for thank you for saying that i'm an al i'm an alley my name is ali Nobody knows who Satoshi Nakamoto is. He disappeared and still, and owns his wallet is out there for anyone to see. And there's like, what, a million, a million bitcoins in it? So that's even less bitcoins for everyone else. So when you think about it, the price is actually pretty justified. So if everyone buys one and there's no more left and I'm like, okay, I want to go buy some,

they're going to be like, sorry, sold out. Well, no, that's why the price, because it's supply and demand. Eventually, you would have to. To make a sweet enough offer. Well, buy 0.001 of 1 for $5. Well, okay. Yeah, right. It's an exchange, right?

Yeah. But give it three months. Ben's going to be fucking minting NFTs. No. Oh, I never. Dude, after slurf, I'm just like, I actually bought something called Aero, AeroDrome, because it's like, it's associated with Coinbase's decks thing, and I don't understand what it is.

But, dude, I made tens of thousands of dollars on it. I bought it a few weeks ago. So you made tens of thousand dollars on Arrow Trudy Treehouse Wait So Apple Vision Pro right Imagine that thing gets smaller You got a little pair of glasses
