Starting point is 00:02:17 I was hopped up on Adderall yesterday and I got so much done that it's ridiculous you give a proficient but uh yeah it's crazy it's like uh it was like uh it felt like like how people describe that limitless pill I was like, oh shit, I can focus. That's crazy. But dude, the headache at the end of the day is crazy. Like, I don't know what the fuck exactly that's about. Because you're supposed to drink water like crazy when you take Adderall apparently.
Starting point is 00:02:48 Like, you're supposed to drink like a ton of it. And I did like an upset. I think I pissed like seven times. I haven't drink. I haven't taken Adderall since I was like a fucking junior. So I wouldn't know. Do you remember getting headaches? Dude, it was like, it was like 10 years ago, man.
Starting point is 00:03:01 Nick, why don't you take you? Why were you taking Adderall? For test scores. That's crazy. I just failed. You took Adderall, but you refused to drink caffeine. Yeah. Like what is that?
Starting point is 00:03:19 I mean, now when I was younger, I would drink a coffee or like a latte or whatever, said like that. So why don't drink that? So when you didn't need it, you drank it. But then now that you're older and like, say people, you know, their energy starts to dissipate. My test scores, man. any of those, any of those fucking grades.
Starting point is 00:03:35 I don't know. I didn't, you know what? I was like, I want to go to really good college. I want to go to really good college. So I took Adderall for a little bit, got some pretty and tame death scores.
Starting point is 00:03:45 And then it was like, oh, shit, this makes my brain feel funny because I couldn't, because for me what happened is I stopped being able to focus without it. And I was like, I got to stop. Oh, yeah,
Starting point is 00:03:52 yeah, yeah, that's a problem, man. You hated what you were doing. Because I didn't need it. You hated what you were. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:01 Yes, like, yesterday, yesterday when I got all this. it done. I was, I'm on, it was, it was a short release pill. I haven't taken any today because I just, I just, I just don't need it today. But I wanted to see how it would work. And it was just like, I know how a lot of people describe it where it's like, oh my God, they get a lot of work done. And that was definitely true for me, but it felt more like, I felt normal more than anything, which was like,
Starting point is 00:04:21 sick. This is exactly, this is exactly what I'm talking about. This is exactly what I, what I was hoping for. So that's cool. But, yeah, but I'm also 30 now. So I can feel my body deteriorating. Immediately. Immediately. soon as you hit the 30 threshold and then it happens again. I woke up, yeah, I woke up, I found discoloration on my skin, I was like, what's that? I woke up, my back hurt. It's crazy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:43 It's all falling apart. Yeah, I'm fucking, you hit 35, that's the next one. That's the next one that it hurts. Everything hurt. But your knees start hurting like just immediately and then a... Start? Well, it... They don't already?
Starting point is 00:04:58 So, well, my knees. My knees, my, nigga, my knees. Nick my knee's been hurting since this fucking football Kicker piece of shit Dove on them in practice Like what a way to get injured On the when we're supposed to be chilling And then this
Starting point is 00:05:12 What were you wearing? Ginger piece of shit This fucking I mean I was I was wearing the gay football uniforms What do you mean? You know that she's where that makes your fucking Your thighs and your
Starting point is 00:05:24 Do you know don't that's good That's good only fans content getting the football Uniform because that shit fucking I felt exposed wearing those those uniforms. Really? Like, yeah, particularly because my,
Starting point is 00:05:38 the way that my, my, my, uh, my body is structured. Yeah, your bottom heavy. You're real bottom heavy.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Yeah, yeah, that's my stupid, uh, dad's side of the family. And so I was, like I said, bitches want to talk about fucking,
Starting point is 00:05:52 uh, getting cack hauled. I would, dude, I would get the crowd. I would be relentlessly, people would say things and whistle just to know
Starting point is 00:06:03 that it pissed me off, you know, and like, oh, and I'm like, bro. Just, they're harassing you. The harassing you's actually for fun. Like, actually for kids. There's no pleasure there. They're just, the pleasures they're bothering you. Not that they're going to harm you.
Starting point is 00:06:18 I still have, there's this fucking white guy. I can describe exactly. If you've seen the movie, if you've seen the movie clerks too, yeah, there's a scene where there's this Lord of the Rings nerd comes in, And are you in Star Wars?
Starting point is 00:06:33 So the Lord of the Rings nerd looks exactly like this guy that I'm about to mention. This guy was named Jake. And he was such an asshole, like white, privileged white guy. But he was still like, well, like, acquaintance. He still was around for some reason. We tolerated him for some reason. But I remember, like, say, I used to have somewhat like self-consciousness about my, I used to be a buck 60 something in high school, which I look like a twig because I'll
Starting point is 00:07:00 bottom heavy. So, but anyway, I remember we're swimming and shit. And this fucking guy was just laughing. I was, oh, my God. Look how big your thighs are. He's like laughing. Like, it was the funniest thing ever. And I'm like, bro, what? And I'm like, that's, that's just different mean. That's just like, because you don't body shame kids for anything. Like, oh, your kids are fat. Like, oh, you're fat, dude. But you don't body shame someone by having thick thighs. That's just kind of really not nice. I was a twig that. It's just like my thighs look so much bigger than, I, I, I, I, could show, I could post a picture of me when I was 16 and I was a stick figure because all I do is drum and play football and I would eat for lunch sun chips and a pink lemonade because that's,
Starting point is 00:07:42 I miss those days though. I miss those days when you're able to function which is off nothing. Yeah, right? 200 calories. Dude, you guys remember going to bed at like 3 a.m. waking up for school at 6 and being able to do that over and over and over again. Yeah. I was burning my blight. I was burning my light bright in high school.
Starting point is 00:08:02 I was like insane. And the Dutch's days, we were in college. When we were in college, we would stay up all night doing fuck shit in our town. And then wake up and we would hang out with each other by 11 o'clock the next day. We're all just back to the energy. Now I'd be like, if I stay up to 2 o'clock with my friends, I'll see them at best the next day after. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I'm still okay with, I can still function that way in some, in some respect.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Hello, hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of Smart Talks with IBM. I recently spoke with IBM's new director of research, Jake Embatta. We discussed his vision for the future of quantum computing. At IBM research, what we always do is answer what is the future of computing, whether it's coming up with new algorithms, coming up with better AI, coming up with quantum or coming up with just how do different accelerators go together. It's our DNA to answer the question of what is the future. Isn't it a perfect problem for IBM because you kind of need to have a legacy of building stuff?
Starting point is 00:09:13 Yes. Building actual physical machines. Yeah, it's why I came to IBM. I wanted the experience, the culture of building hard things that others have not done before. Where do you imagine we are in the timeline of this technology? There will come a point when it will mature. Right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:36 My cell phone is a mature technology at this point. How far are we from that point with Quantum? By 2029, we'll build the first fault-tolerant quantum computer. That is one that can run a very, very large, large problem. To learn how IBM is building the future of computing, visit IBM.com slash quantum. All right, quick quiz for the hiring managers out there. What's worse? Being understaffed or being poorly staffed?
Starting point is 00:10:08 Well, that's a trick question, because both are recipes for chaos. Either way, just say to yourself, this is a job for Indeed's sponsored jobs. You'll get matched with candidates that meet the skills, certifications, and everything else you're looking for. Or go a different way and get no traction. Seriously, sponsored jobs posted directly on Indeed are 95% more likely to report a hire than non-sponsored jobs. It really is a no-brainer. Spend less time searching and more time actually interviewing candidates who check all your boxes. Less stress, less time, more results. When you need the right person to cut through the chaos, this is a job for Indeed sponsored jobs. And listeners

Just go to Indeed.com slash podcast right now. Indeed.com slash podcast. apply. Need to hire? This is a job for Indeed's sponsored jobs. You know, I don't think that's really changed that much. I think that's just how I naturally function in some way. I can't do that anymore. It's definitely getting a little bit harder. But I feel like I should, I feel like the way that most people describe, like, the way you're describing at Kingston where it's like, you're fucked. A lot of people have described that to me a lot earlier than where I have experienced it. I feel like I got like maybe another two years
Starting point is 00:11:25 before that starts to really be impossible. Because I'm already starting to get like, oh, I'm tired at like 1 a.m. You know? Like, I'm getting actually, like, actually. Like, I can properly fall asleep. So that's nice. But, I don't know. Enough of the... If I stay up late... Enough of this. If I stay up very late, too, I got to leave.
Starting point is 00:11:44 I'm like, guys, I can't do this. Well, you just... Also, my thing is this. I don't leave my house after, like, eight or nine. Like, eight or nine, I'm not leaving my house anymore. That's it. There's no point. Okay. So I'm like, hey, let's take out at like, let's like 10. I'm like, no, fuck you.
Starting point is 00:11:59 No. No, that's fine. I get it. I will, I will absolutely do that. 10 p.m. It's funny crazy. That's a lot.
Starting point is 00:12:05 That's wild. That's a whole character. Lyle's like, Lyle's like, Hey, let's hang out. Look, if there's something happening that I think is interesting, I will,
Starting point is 00:12:12 I will, the issue is, in L.A., that's harder to, because everything's so fucking far. Like, if I was in New York City, dude, like, it could be 11 p.m. And somebody would be like, yo, come out. Something's going on.
Starting point is 00:12:23 I'd be like, yeah. Yeah. That's going to take me like five, 10 minutes, Max to get there and see what the fuck is up. I could go home in that time, you know. But for me, it'd have to be every homeless person. They're having homeless gang wars.
Starting point is 00:12:38 That homeless turf wars. I'd come up out with that. Well, that's our fans. That's our fans you're talking about. And I won't have you disparaging them. I will not have you disparaging them on this podcast. Imagine a homeless war because they were taking sides about Miles Morales. They got cool and who didn't like the sword.
Starting point is 00:12:56 They have cool. nice. They have sickles with chains on them. I'm like, yo, what is going on? All right. Listen, we gotta move in. Kill each other. They get that shit. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's fucking go.
Starting point is 00:13:08 We got. We got a. Cicles with chains. They don't even make these. That is such a fucking impractical weapon. It's insane. A sickle on a chain. It's so unwieldy. That, no, it's such And that is too good.
Starting point is 00:13:25 That's a scary thing. There is no one. No one can get good with that. Not the best martial arts of the world could be like, these physics are fuck. Chris, Chris,
Starting point is 00:13:33 you've never seen rope- circles on a chains? I've seen rope darts. You're not, you're not understanding what a sickle on a chain is. Yeah, a sickle. No,
Starting point is 00:13:42 no, no, no, sorry. I think you're thinking more of a side. I'm thinking that's a tiny one, not a scythe on a chain. I'm thinking of a little sickle. I'm thinking of a full side.
Starting point is 00:13:51 A siph on a chain is bananas. So here's what I'm thinking. What I pictured was two full sides with the, poles connected by a chain in the middle which is like you're no one's getting good at that. The idea of someone holding a sithe with a chain at the end of it is like what do you plan to do with that?
Starting point is 00:14:11 A sithe with a chain at the end of it connected to another sithe. That's out of pocket, man. Yeah, it's like nunchuck rope dart, bow staffs. Like it's all it's so fuck. Yeah. Yeah. That's the type of shit that they make on. Like that's a sudden you get in dark so that you beat the game.
Starting point is 00:14:30 Totally is fortune fire. It totally is. I need you guys to make, like, they make the stupidest weapons. I need you guys to make fucking axes with chainsaws that fucking fire out of a bazooka. Yeah, five days. They're like, what the fuck is this? And they're done by day four. And you're like, what is the wrong with you guys?
Starting point is 00:14:49 How long was that show going on for, forge and fire? Like that, because, hold on, let me look this up. I'm curious. After a while. It was on for a long while then it came to YouTube. I bought this Samsung TV that comes with this app, Samsung TV Plus,
Starting point is 00:15:05 and it gives you a bunch of free channels. And they have a bunch of history channel things that are just dedicated to a show. And so there is this channel that is dedicated to Forge and Fire. And I bet you watch it regularly. That's your favorite thing to watch. Whatever, it's default.
Starting point is 00:15:22 So whenever there's not something to watch, like, oh, there's no $90. a fiancee to watch with a Jojo or whatever Fortune fires on and it's just this these weapons are so like it'll be either a saber like an officer saber or I'm like yawning
Starting point is 00:15:38 or it's some crazy African weapon where I'm like these fucking people who are so devastatingly brutal or like oh the most efficient killing weapons that can kill you in every way possible and I'm like why do you need this?
Starting point is 00:15:54 What is wrong with that sword? There's a gun. So there's 10 seasons of this show, and I looked it up so they didn't do this. I'm astonished that they haven't gone into the market of like trying like video game weapons. You know what I mean? Like they haven't. Oh, I know. They haven't tried.
Starting point is 00:16:11 They definitely have. After 10 seasons, I, well, the, the weapon that I would imagine them wanting to make, which is like, dude, make the chainsaw gun. Make a chainsaw gun, dude. Make a chainsaw gun. They actually made it. We're fresh off, we're fresh off gears, we're fresh off the gears of war, extra ammo, where we, we, I don't want to spoil it. But like, we wrote, we wrote the Gears of War movie over on extra ammo, over on Patreon.com slash a stock tank. But, yeah, I'm just, I don't know, man.
Starting point is 00:16:41 If there was ever a weapon that I would want to build, it would be that fucking thing. As impractical as it would be. I think that weapon is so hard to build. I feel like that weapon is such a hard thing to create. That's why they stayed away from it. Yeah, it's impossible. That is a working gun with a chainsaw inside of it. Those are very not the same mechanisms, I'm pretty sure.
Starting point is 00:17:06 Now, I've always, of course, it's gears the universe. You don't have to explain anything, right? It just, but I've always wondered the mechanics behind it always working. I was like, what is this powered by? What does it doesn't always work? That's the thing. But it does. Sometimes it doesn't work.
Starting point is 00:17:24 you can always if you're if you can always just hold down B and it'll start revving like you get always it's always working I love when you do the chance off battles that's so fucking cool it's so it is it is so unbelievably cool it's insane it is just someone Cliff Blasinski was just like this is cool and that was the whole basis there was no how it's like well how do we explain this it's like what do you mean yeah like cool What the fucking talking about? She was like, huh? That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:18:00 It's like everything. Explain to me how can the... Explain to me why the hammer a don only works when we need it. Explain that to me, please. Right. Because if it works, if it worked every time, we wouldn't need the, like, we wouldn't need Marcus and Dom and them. We would just burn a hole through that place and sink that city on our own.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Look, look, look, look, look, look. We're in the realm of video games. There's no better way to segue into it. We got to talk about it. Gtahs 6. Grand The trailer came out 906. The trailer came out 90 million views in 24 hours. That is fucking crazy.
Starting point is 00:18:47 Almost broke the record, but BTS still holds the record for like 108 million and 24 hours. That's right, yeah. Pisses me off, but still. But dude, even just in the realm of video games, like, I think Eldon Ring, I think Tears of the Kingdom, I think, like, none of it comes close. Like, in a way that's, like, actually shocking. You remember the sales of the T-A-5, right?
Starting point is 00:19:11 190 million units. Do you remember the sales of the GTF? Like, it was so insane when I walked in to buy it. I've never seen in any game close. To every single person that is there that is walking in, it looked like a completely diverse. I mean, every single one, copy, copy. It wasn't like the lineup for the, you know, like the premiere when everybody lines up at like 9 p.m. or whatever the fuck, right?
Starting point is 00:19:39 Like, we're going to get the launch day and shit. It's just a regular day in the middle of the day. Fucking stores packed and everyone only and then they're like, fuck every other game. And I think, God damn, this, I can't imagine what this is going to be like. I can't even... They're going to make a lot of money on this. It is jarring. Yeah, I'm making...
Starting point is 00:20:00 And you know, it's insane. For me, I don't even care to play it. Like, I don't really think I'm going to play DJ6. I think I probably will. It would be insane. I'd be insane for me not to play. I don't care about... I play DTA 5 for, like, genuinely, like, maybe like, for a week and I stop playing it.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Yeah. But you play it. TTA doesn't have the story. work that Red Dead has, Sides didn't care enough. I was... I just agree. Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:29 I just agree. Love the moments with Trevor. I thought it was so fun. You think GTA has the story work that Red Dead Red Dead Redemption 2 has? That's insane. That's not even the same ballpark. Not even the same character.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Like, they're good games. Don't get me wrong. I think Franklin was cool. But... It's not what I'm saying. I'm not saying. It's a different kind of... It's a different kind of...
Starting point is 00:20:52 game and it's also like you're comparing the last GTA was 2013 developed written in 2010 probably 2011 comes out in 2013 same game no no but what I'm saying is like modern rock star has not a modern rock star has not attempted a GTA story in the way that they've attempted
Starting point is 00:21:11 Red Dead 1 is the same as GTA Red Dead 1 people like really look back at that game as if it's like amazing story wise it's not it's exactly what GTA is but in the fucking wild West. And if Red Dead Red Dead Redemption 2 is any indication... It's not a better... I guess it's more compared to a senator.
Starting point is 00:21:30 You're not hearing what I'm saying. You're not hearing what I'm saying. Hello, hello. I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of Smart Talks with IBM.

First of all, Grand The Theta Fort Story, I would argue, is probably like the best GTA story that they've ever fucking done.
Starting point is 00:24:08 And it's so fucking good that story. Even the Balladegate Tony, I didn't play Lost in the Dam, to be fair. So I don't know Lost in the Dam, but like, Valadega State Tony is fucking sick too. And so, like, I don't know, man, I think. It's pretty good. I would say it's great. It's not. It's not.
Starting point is 00:24:24 Dude, when that girl kills herself With that awesome When that girl All right, whatever, all right You're gay I would like But that's my response to that Because I've played
Starting point is 00:24:37 I've played ball and age one I remember entirely I was called kind of Apples and Orges though brother As far as GTA and Red Dead Because it's almost like Scorsese versus A fucking Judd Apatow movie
Starting point is 00:24:50 Where it's like They're trying to do two different things I feel you. I feel you. For me, for me, I'm not, I don't want to compare the, so I might have been a little too over,
Starting point is 00:25:00 a little too broad madness. For me, GTA games are about just shooting and doing fuck shit and having fun doing it. But when I, now I don't really play games for that. That has to be something about the game
Starting point is 00:25:14 that will keep me playing. Like something about the gameplay loop that'll be like, well, this is fun. I really enjoy doing this. What happened was Greg Red Dead? Like,
Starting point is 00:25:23 if redid wasn't as a good story-driven game as it was I don't think I would ever finished it you know yeah yeah I mean either or CGTA having that ability I don't see why not I really I don't know it looks so good like it looks awesome it looks cool like I've been own of it looks fantastic like I don't know man I think
Starting point is 00:25:48 it looks this good now I'm gonna do missions and rob people and stuff in this game. I'm like, that doesn't excite me at all. I'm not trying to be contrary. I know it sounds very contrary. I mean, I robbed a lot of trains in Red Dead too. I robbed a lot of trains in Red Dead
Starting point is 00:26:04 2. I robbed a lot of people. After I like, after I shot a, I shot hundreds if not over a thousand people in Red Dead 2. It's just, it's their, the story is different but the gameplay isn't. Oh no,
Starting point is 00:26:20 100% 100%. Yeah. So you're You need the story to even entertain something like this. It's got, the story's got to be really compelling. That's basically all you're saying. I understand that. Is that it got to grip me? And GT hasn't gripped me ever since I became like a more mature video game player.
Starting point is 00:26:38 That's not grip me on the other. They don't even excite me at all anymore. That sounds like saying mature video game player sounds like really gay to me. I'm just saying, yeah, it does sound really. Yeah. Y'all are the biggest. That's it. Because it sounds like you're eleanor.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Elevating yourself. It's like I'm too mature for GTA. It's like, shut the fuck up. I'm not elevating myself. What happened is when I was a small, when I was a younger player, I would play Pokemon games, you know? Now I can't sit down and play Pokemon. Well, Kingston, you play Digimon now. But I play the card game. I don't play Digimon the video game.
Starting point is 00:27:10 That's even gayer. Wow, I really enjoy this compelling Digimon game. I play the card game because I like the strategy of the card game. Kingston, it is 50 times gayer to play the card game that it is to play the video game. It's a card. games take strategy and oh my god okay i'm not sure go yeah i feel like card games take strategy
Starting point is 00:27:28 go gamble all your money away in a casino then talk to all those people about this strategy it's not a casino it's not a fucking gambling card card game absolutely stems from the same place you don't even know what you're talking about cards or cards baby cards no they're not that's like that's like saying people it's like dogs and dogs
Starting point is 00:27:45 no can i say that i really i don't like i don't like card games for a lot for a lot of reasons but like i think the main reason is like cards are associated to me with like really just fucking stupid people like I can't like everybody everybody that I knew who was like ooh let's play poker lost all their fucking money everybody's like ooh taro let's read let's read your
Starting point is 00:28:02 fucking sign and shit it's like no I can't I can't do this shit that's your association you're bad at meeting people you're bad at meeting and knowing people because I play poker every holiday and I don't was way draw my money I'm out of fucking plot no you're missing the point it's
Starting point is 00:28:18 it's just the answer it's like I understand that you can play those games and not have a problem But at the same time, it's just a part of it. So it's like, I don't need it. I don't need this shit. Not, like, like, when you're trying to make you play Gwent or something when you were playing, like, oh, it's like, you play Witcher and now you got to play Gwint. Fuck you. Get the fuck out of here.
Starting point is 00:28:34 You stupid. I literally, kill yourself. Never played Gwent. I played Gwent the one time they made you do it. Why? I played it the one time they made you do it. You play Gwyn, you have to one time. There's three card games.
Starting point is 00:28:46 You might be right, but I also don't remember. Because I do remember. seeing the, I think the, yeah, there's a tutorial and then you never play again. I think you're right about that. Yeah. When you get to the time, when you get to the first place, that first bar were Vesemir, that first, first, first place you get to a Vesemir, they make you play Gwent there. I'm surprised because I thought you were going to be the ones that probably got hardcore in a Gwyn.
Starting point is 00:29:10 I'm surprised by hearing that. The only time I ever played a card game in a video game is for Final Fantasy 10. To beat the ultimate weapon, you need to beat Laguna in a card game that get the ability. heroes drink. So you have three turns of invincibility or else you cannot beat the secret boss. You cannot beat any other way. So I did that shit. I got it.
Starting point is 00:29:33 And then I never played. Oh, you know what I did? You know what I did? I fucking use GameShark. I use fucking GameShark. That's crazy. I miss games. I mean, I don't miss GameShark. I literally fucking, there's just trainers all over the fucking PC.
Starting point is 00:29:49 I had to just collect cards. I had to collect cards. and then like hold on the good cards and like hold on the good cards and I'm like you I really don't like this shit dude even in even in even in even in non got that shit and I beat that motherfucker
Starting point is 00:30:02 nice dude even in non card oriented games that have cards in them like it just turns me off entirely like everything about it like when I remember back for blood that that left for dead kind of spiritual successor had like this weird card system
Starting point is 00:30:17 and it was like unironically like the soul like the main reason I was like I can't fuck with this at all. I can't fucking. Why are they doing this? Why is everybody have a fucking card in their game?
Starting point is 00:30:28 It's so dumb and lame. But, yeah. I don't know. It's getting crazy. But I don't like, I don't know. I like card games a lot.
Starting point is 00:30:36 I've always been a fan of them. Because I think it's fun like deck buildings. I think it's an interesting mechanic. But like, I don't like card games that I don't like. Like, if I didn't sit down and play, like, I don't play, like, the anime girl card games,
Starting point is 00:30:49 like Weiss, there's a game called Weiss or Weiss I like that. It's about like, it's anime girls. Is that from Ruby or something? That's like from Ruby, right? Well, Ruby characters are in it, I'm pretty sure. So it was like daunting and never make crimes like that. I just,
Starting point is 00:31:03 I just collect anime bitches and then that's it or what? It's like, it's just a make a battle or something. So they can stick together. So they stick to yeah, yeah. It's really weird, man. I'm like, I can't play this. Yeah, I don't, I don't, yeah, I don't know. I don't fucking cards. I, I play
Starting point is 00:31:19 Ariolos and I declare war. And I Claire war, that's it. Give me a... If GTA 6 has cards in it, then it's... Then I won't... Then I won't be excited for it. But I think that's cool. I'm sure as fucking playing a card game.
Starting point is 00:31:30 It looks really cool. You play as a Hispanic woman. And I can tell you from personal experience, they suck. So... And that's exactly why it's going to be fun. Like, when you look at her, I was like, oh, I like this character already.
Starting point is 00:31:45 Because you can, you can... You feel that, oh, this bitch isn't going to take shit from no one. She's going to be like a... fun character that it's one of the did you see of course like there was as soon as the trailer
Starting point is 00:32:00 dropped I already knew oh there's going to be some people because since she is going to be more of a protagonist and probably a little bit on the stronger side and fears oh must be a must be trans woman. That was a trans woman. I saw there's a
Starting point is 00:32:17 weird dude the the weird instinct of seeing like a hot woman and assuming she must be trans is crazy. It's so weird. It's such a like... I've literally never seen this before like 2016 or something. I've never seen...
Starting point is 00:32:35 Yeah, no. And it's the weirdest phenomenon that I've ever... I've witnessed in real time just seeing people being so infected by this to where they think anyone who doesn't... I think who look like an animal. character they think is trans because like there are shots of the main character
Starting point is 00:32:56 that's obviously a woman but then there's shots like I think she's in her like prison jumpsuit or whatever and like she's not all dolled up or something her hair's not all up and then like there's a man I'm like are you like how what
Starting point is 00:33:11 virgins virgins literally but it's like don't you have mothers don't you have sisters don't you have anything yeah my mom's a man Mom's a fucking man Yeah, she's a man I knew it
Starting point is 00:33:28 Where's your dick mom Why are you lying to me Yeah, I don't know You know, you're joking but I'm sure that's happened I'm sure that has happened That is so weird Yeah, Kim Star stoked that out He put that out there
Starting point is 00:33:43 Rumors are flying around I'm like, nigga, there is I hate when people say that shit Because Tim Poole made a video will say the same thing. I'm like, dude, there's,
Starting point is 00:33:53 it's just like five insane people. And then they're like, rumors. Like, dude, these people are so fucking stupid. I can't respect them as human beings in some ways. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:34:05 It's like, I can't, I can't fucking, like that, I saw a clip of the Tim Pool show where they were talking about how like, um, she,
Starting point is 00:34:10 he had this, this, um, token, uh, woman on. Uh, and she was talking about how like,
Starting point is 00:34:16 uh, oh, man, the protagonist is like a single mom. Or it came out. that like the protagonist is a single mom. It's like it's got to be representation. And it's like, how is that fucking rep? Oh yeah. Oh, yeah. Is it, is it? What is it? Is GTA-s?
Starting point is 00:34:29 What is it woke about a... Hello, hello. I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of smart talks with IBM. I recently spoke with IBM's new director of research, Jake Mbeta. We discussed his vision for the future of quantum computing. At IBM research, what we always do is answer what is the future of computing, whether it's coming up with new algorithms, coming up. up with better AI, coming up with quantum, or coming up with just how do different accelerators go together. It's our DNA to answer the question of what is the future. Isn't it a perfect problem for IBM because you kind of need to have a legacy of building stuff?
Starting point is 00:35:07 Yes. Building actual physical machines. Yeah, it's why I came to IBM. I wanted the experience, the culture of building hard things that others have not done before. Where do you imagine we are in the timeline of this technology? There will come a point when it will mature. Right? My cell phone is a mature technology at this point.
Starting point is 00:35:34 How far are we from that point with quantum? By 2029, we'll build the first fault-tolerant quantum computer. That is one that can run a very, very large, large problem.

Starting point is 00:37:04 It's so fucking weird. And all the people are like, wow, it's so many black people in Miami. So many minorities in Miami. What the fuck? Bro. Yeah. Miami isn't Maine, bro.
Starting point is 00:37:19 Granted, Miami that's shown on television. and movies exposed to Miami when you go there are very different places 100% it's like New York it's like it's like
Starting point is 00:37:31 TV New York and then like real New York you know TV New York you're like oh Manhattan's a nice place jingle bells all that shit
Starting point is 00:37:40 and then you go there you see Thomas people fighting having a fucking blade battle with katanas and fucking Koonize and you're like what the fuck is this
Starting point is 00:37:48 you know like oh time square is so awesome and it hits 9 p.m. and you're getting robbed by like eight fucking little children from Oliver Twist, you know, like,
Starting point is 00:37:57 there's a depiction of places. You're not getting robbed in Times Square at 9 p.m. That's the year at at 5 p.m. Times Square at 9 p.m. If you're in Times Square while it's getting empty, you very likely will get robbed. Do you think Times Square is getting empty at 9 p.m.? Someone will be like, yo, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:38:14 I need this off because. Do you think Times Square is getting empty at 9 p.m.? Are you insane? I don't remember, man. It's been a while. It's been a while. Bro, like, the Times Square gets empty at like six. Time Square gets empty at like 1.30 in the morning.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Which like, yeah, okay. At that point, yeah, you're going to get fucked up. At two, at two o'clock, come two o'clock. I can't guarantee that you'll come home. But, I don't know, man. I'm excited about it. But I want to, I want to really hammer this point home, right? Where it's like the idea that, so I thought Grand The Lotto 5 was like fine.
Starting point is 00:38:49 I think the split character, I think the, the, the, three split protagonists really kind of hurt the story because I just felt like it just didn't have focus at all. But the individual stories in there were I heard really, really genuinely good. Like, GTA 5 is like a big story game for a lot of people. Obviously, it's become a live service game too. But I didn't gravitate towards it because I just didn't like the split character, the split protagonist like that. I preferred like one character, you know. That's why GTA 4 is so special to me. Because GTA 4 was like, whoa, this is like an actual like story about like immigration to the U.S. and like how fucking crazy.
Starting point is 00:39:22 crazy that shit is and like all and balladaytony was like a whole other thing i loved that game from a story a lot uh but san andreas didn't do it for me vice city didn't do it for me obviously they're older so it's harder to i don't know there were so many no i love so much more rich san jrase is a fun fuck around game but i just and and like the intro is really good but i just didn't i don't know at a certain like outside of like the train i think it's more of a west coast thing man I think like I'm way more connected to San Andreas. That's totally fair. What I'm like about San Andreas for real was like it was a real kind of story like that.
Starting point is 00:40:00 I don't know that I just had a bunch of fucking silly fucked up shit, but that was a real gang story. Like that was like what being a gang member is like, you know? Like a bunch of people that were gangs that played the game. Oh yes, that's shit like that happens, you know. Yeah, soft central. I mean, fucking obviously. Yeah, it does that.
Starting point is 00:40:17 Like, writer, rider. I know writer. I know that character But they do That's that's rock star man They have that attention to detail Like they the fact that they even Did Red Dead Red Dead Redemption 2 at all
Starting point is 00:40:30 And did it as well as it Dude there's no reason why a cowboy game In the 2020 should sell 50 fucking million A single player cowboy game should sell 50 million units They do because they do their research And they know it and that's what GTA G4 was that as well It was like oh man
Starting point is 00:40:44 Eastern European immigrant in New York City Like what the fuck is that like And it's crazy It's fucking nuts. Yeah. And the thing with Five was that it was just, it was too many different, like, I just couldn't connect to anybody because there were just too many, there's too much shit going on. But like with this one, there was just one hateable characters, I think, in Five's problem. Like, Franklin was, I liked Franklin, he was a good guy, dude, underneath it off, but he, like, he was an idiot.
Starting point is 00:41:10 The freaking drug addict was just unlikable. Like, I could not like him. Well, they're all. And then the dad, Mike was a huge, Trevor. Trevor was fucking horrible. And then Mike was just a giant asshole. I just liked, uh, uh, uh, rocket, rocketing, uh, his son. Like if you could, cause there's always ways you could, uh, there's always ways if you, if you do it right.
Starting point is 00:41:36 So, you know, like, if you enter a house with a gun drawn why you have like, say, maybe a star or something or the star, like there's ways that you can trigger because, you know, once you go inside your safe house, you, you put your weapons away. But then there's ways to trigger it so you can solve your weapons open. And so I would always go on and blast the sun. I would just do that, like, all the time. I would sometimes people would be like, oh, you're fucked up because I would blast my honor if I was frankly. She's like sitting on the couch and I just fucking RPG her. She goes flying.
Starting point is 00:42:07 But I don't know. I definitely, I will agree with you as far as UT5 goes. I spent way more time. I only completed the story once. I started playing because it was free on the epic game. I think the launcher on the epic launcher So then I started playing the story again
Starting point is 00:42:23 But then I abandoned it Because I just like fucking round In the game way more In GTA5 It is a great fucking sandbox To just fuck around it Versus yeah Oh let me play the story again
Starting point is 00:42:35 Uh GTA6 It's it's all up in the air I know the It's gonna be different right The riding's gonna be different And Is it gonna be as good?
Starting point is 00:42:48 as who know I'm so I'm so I'm so curious is it even going to come out in 2025 like is that is that unrealistic is it really yeah I don't know I don't know man I think I think I think I think it has the potential to because I mean GTA as a game is more fun than Red Dead like quite like as a game like it just is like as a fuck around sandbox I disagree but I think yeah I think but I think that you're a contrarating up a storm here but No, I'm in contraining. I enjoy the Cowboys shit more.
Starting point is 00:43:20 Bowen arrows. No, but do you enjoy the Cowboy? Like, the aesthetic makes me enjoy the playing the game significantly more. Because, you know, the cars are cool, but like having a horse is awesome to me.
Starting point is 00:43:33 You know, like I just don't, because I've played modern games like that already. So many times. I just want a car in red games. You know? So I can get, I want to get a place.
Starting point is 00:43:44 Yeah, I want to roam faster. I would really And that's personal preference Like a car obviously is going to move faster You're gonna have crazy They're gonna have rocket launchers And fucking landmines and shit
Starting point is 00:43:55 You know But I enjoy like I'm excited I'm excited for those And my fucking knives I'm excited for those What is it? The
Starting point is 00:44:05 Those shootouts in hospitals With the cops and stuff Like I used to do that all the time In Gears of War Not Geyser In Gt 5 Where I would just hold up That was fine
Starting point is 00:44:14 I would go into like one of those Yeah, there's a specific hospital. There was also like, yeah, the corridor, and you just end up fighting. I had one where I was fighting cops in like, oh my God, like, it was in Central Park. There was like one of those under things under a bridge where like there was bathrooms.
Starting point is 00:44:29 Yeah, the underpass. And it's, and I just, my mind is kind of raising about like, what would that look like with more modern mechanics, with more advanced AI, like with a more fleshed out map and like how would it, how would that feel? And also like, how's the writing going to change? because Grant the Dental 5 was written a long fucking time ago. And so, like, you have to imagine that Red Dead 2, I mean, I'll put it this way.
Starting point is 00:44:52 Compare Red Dead 2 to Red Dead 1 and it's a, it is absurd how much better written it is to the point where it's, and how much more serious it is. Red Dead 1 is a fucking joke until the end, basically. Like, it's ridiculous. It's full of so much stupid shit. It's full of GTA level shit. That fucking snake oil salesman, who's basically a giant baby. Like, it, that's a GTA character. Without a fucking shadow of a doubt.
Starting point is 00:45:20 I think, I think, I think Red Dead is more serious, but not by a vast margin. Not a lot. Red Dead 2. Not, you're misremembering. Red Dead 2 is more serious. For sure. I think two is definitely more serious than any of the other ones. Number one was when the Pinkertons were harassing you, right?
Starting point is 00:45:35 Was that the, was the thing I can't remember what was the plot? It was a, it was a new set of Pinkertons. Yeah. Yeah. It was very grand the thought. dude, like obviously because they made it. The feds were harassing you, right? Not the Pinkertons. It was the Fed's.
Starting point is 00:45:49 No, you were working for Fed. I think it was still the Pinkertons. I think it was still the Pinkerton's and it was you were working on. I mean, I know the other point is you killed Dutch because he's like a rat or something, right, or something. What is it? I can't remember. I don't know. I forgot the lot, actually. In like one of the first missions in Red Dead One, you walk up, John Marston and he just walks up. He's like, I'm going to take you down. And then he gets shot. shot in the chest and falls. And then he basically dies.
Starting point is 00:46:18 And then he was trying to get immediately. Yeah. But he was trying to get Bill. Was he trying to get Bill? It was Bill, right? He was trying to get Bill. He was trying to get Bill and he shoots him like basically dead. It's fucking absurd.
Starting point is 00:46:31 It, GTA 4 is more serious than Red Dead 1 is throughout its entire runtime. I don't agree with that. I really don't agree with that. But that's, I guess. I haven't made Gtie 4 in a long time. I made GTA 4 when GTA 4 was. pretty new. I played Red Dead maybe for last time, like 2015.
Starting point is 00:46:49 I played Red Dead 1 just before Red Dead 2 came out and then I played Grand The Thuddle 4 earlier this year. So, I mean, like, dude, it's really jarring. It's actually, like, kind of surprising how not serious Red Dead 1 is in comparison to Red Dead 2. But the whole point of this is to say that I think it's possible that GTA 6 carries a lot of narrative stuff
Starting point is 00:47:15 from Red Dead 2 because why wouldn't it necessarily? It's still going to be a GTA game I think it's still going to be full of like insane shit. I think it's going to be, you know what I think a great comparison piece actually is,
Starting point is 00:47:27 Witcher 3 to Cyberpunk, you know, where it's like you have very, very different styles of game, very, very different styles of tone. There's ridiculous shit. There's way more ridiculous shit in cyberpunk
Starting point is 00:47:39 than there is in The Witcher for obvious reasons because the tone of cyberpunk is just inherently more out of pocket and insane. But it's still like a narratively, like, strong game. And I think that's kind of, I wouldn't be surprised if that's kind of what happens with Grand The Auto where it's like, it is going to be more ridiculous. But I don't think it's going to be less serious or less engaging. But only, I mean, that's time that, you know, who knows? It could, 2025 could come around and it could just be like a live service game primarily with a 10-hour story max.
Starting point is 00:48:11 I don't know. I got no fucking clue what they're going to do. But that's insane. That'd be hilarious. I wonder how they're going to navigate with that with, yeah, like, because with, I'm going to be honest. I was actually surprised that they even, I thought, I thought this game was going to come out towards the, like in another four years or something. Because. Me too, honestly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:28 How about, how about we keep milking GTA5 till people legitimately get tired of it and people aren't? Yeah. Like, there's still Blake D.C. Online. And I'm like, what the hell's wrong with you, people? you're doing it's it's crazy i've been thinking i've been thinking about it more and more just i wonder what that what that game is like today like i have no concept yeah of what cred the photo online is at all and i was curious about just like even just booting it up for just like a day and just seeing like
Starting point is 00:48:57 what it would be like to jump into it i remember i was got really turned off from grand the thought online initially because like they had all this weird shit where it's like you got to buy car insurance in the game and shit and like you yeah so people fuck up your shit yeah and then you couldn't break into other players cars. Yeah, it was weird. Like a weird level of realism that I did not. I didn't care for. I saw flying cars in the game and I was like, yeah, I don't care no more.
Starting point is 00:49:24 I think that's would be a cheat. I just didn't care. Jay's never been able to really keep my attention. Like I've beat, I beat like four of them and I was like these games like the end beating, we had the photo games. It's always like a fucking like more like I guess I've beat it. as I have it. Not like,
Starting point is 00:49:41 oh, I have to keep playing it. I'm one edge of my seat. That was like my perspective of him at least. Yeah. I mean, I killed people for a little bit
Starting point is 00:49:49 and then I'm like, all right, I'm good. I'm done. I mean, I guess. I really, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:49:54 I loved Grands of Theta four, but I didn't like it. I didn't like it when I first played it. Because I think I just didn't really grasp a lot of what the fuck it was really about. But playing as an adult is crazy. Because that, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:50:08 man. It's a wild. I never cared about Nico Bellick ever. I mean, I never get a fuck about Nico. Nico's funny, because it was funny too. Nico's great. Nico, I fucking love Nico. Nico might be, it's Nico and...

Starting point is 00:53:08 That's it. he fucking needs subtitles fucking hard to understand dude he has subtitles I don't know man that gave so fucking hilarious I love
Starting point is 00:53:19 there's that whatever we're gonna just gonna keep talking about it if we if we keep going So what's his cousin's name GT6 Cousin Roman Roman
Starting point is 00:53:27 Thank you It's been a while So I just kind of forget Yeah yeah yeah I played it super recently So like a lot of that stuff is like a little bit more Fresh
Starting point is 00:53:34 I still haven't beat it though On my like on my current Hardware it on my current hardware no I beat it like a long long long time ago but like that was back when I was kind of like I was skipping cutscenes constantly and I was like I would I read up more on it afterwards because I just wanted to blow shit up but uh I don't know it's it reminds me of playing halo two when I first played it where I was like I don't know if I'm grasping really any of this you know where like I'm a child I'm just shooting aliens because it's fun and then like I play it
Starting point is 00:54:03 again just before Halo 3 comes out and I was like oh this is actually a fucking really tragic story about religion and fucking, you know what I mean? But, yeah, I should finish Grand The Theta 404. God, I have so many, I have so many games on my fucking backlog. It's ridiculous. It's fucked. And I bought more. I bought more.
Starting point is 00:54:22 I was like, what am I doing? I know. Like, you know, when the deals get good, I'm like, fuck. Like, I haven't played most of the Metro games. And they're all like, they're like $2. If you want to play like, Exodus or anything. Metro is weird. They're fucking $2 right now.
Starting point is 00:54:41 I was like, fuck. That's another one. I own all of them and I have not finished any of them. And I like them. So I don't know why. It's just like games, they stick around too long or something. Like, I don't know. There's a pacing issue with modern games that I don't feel with older games where it's just like, bro, 40 hours is too much for this.
Starting point is 00:55:04 I don't need 40 hours of this. I feel you. Anyway. what else is what else is happening the h bomber guy video oh yeah h bomber guy plagiarism that guy fucking do you remember him from way back in the day yeah yeah yeah yeah i remember i remember um making he because he was in a video called questions for anti shth ws or something and i remember uh he was in that exactly yeah yeah i remember that was my introduction to him when i was like this guy's weird i was like this guy's fucking this guy's
Starting point is 00:55:33 fucking weirdo uh i i respect him now though um i well i've never not respected because he wasn't somebody that was whenever the only thing that I didn't like about him was his his series on a Dark Souls 2 I thought he was totally wrong about that that was like the only thing
Starting point is 00:55:52 that I saw because he was basically defending Dark Souls 2 as a game and I just fundamentally disagree with the changes that everybody talks about everybody is kind of on the same page like hey the PVP was really fun but the game was just did not feel like a
Starting point is 00:56:11 it didn't feel like a traditional Souls game it felt off and then he goes through this long thing but anyway I don't need to you know go through the whole this whole thing but yeah yeah this guy like shows up every once in a while now right yeah with like a big video and like hit the so he has less than 2 million subscribers
Starting point is 00:56:35 but his videos I don't understand how that works. Like, so he'll get, his videos will get, like say, this new video about plagiarism has been up for like maybe four or five days and it's already at like five million views when dude has, it's like, it's like a massive event. I guess it's akin to John Tron in a similar way where. Yeah, yeah. The, just the, the engagement is so insane where I'm like, dude, where is this coming from?
Starting point is 00:57:04 It's so, yeah, that motherfucker called out. One YouTuber in particular, but also a lot of other ones along the way. And somebody who, you know, I feel like we know, the internet historian, I thought that was actually... Yeah. That was so very surprising because I didn't know about any of that shit. I've heard about the one girl, uh, creep, no, Cleep, Illuminati? Yeah, yeah, I've heard, I've heard about that through the... She's the one that's got a bunch of problems recently.
Starting point is 00:57:33 Yeah, I've heard of that stuff. And I never heard of that Somerton guy That who he was the main focus of that video Yeah Where he's like in the last half The video is like Yeah video is like three The video is like three and a half hours long
Starting point is 00:57:48 So like I really did I kind of skimmed through it I was like I watched like maybe 20 minutes of it And I was like I stopped caring I watched all of it But in a few days Like I was doing stuff when I was cleaning You know I watched it when I was doing stuff like that
Starting point is 00:58:03 Like cleaning like I cleaned out my car yesterday and finished the video and uh but it was hilarious just I've always I mean I guess you know there's so many how is it not going to be anyone who shoots out a video
Starting point is 00:58:16 essence that quickly I would always be skeptical of their writers and how quickly they're spitting up the scripts I'm immediately suspicious of anybody who put stuff out too regularly because like you can't you're not doing that like I just know from
Starting point is 00:58:32 experience and and doing this for this long that like you've got a team helping you and that can be good that's fine like it's not like the worst thing in the world but when you have other people write your stuff for you you're you're kind of opening up a really big fucking problem where they could steal and you might not know it
Starting point is 00:58:53 and what do you mean? I guess that makes sense that's true yeah I've always actually I was just going to say real quick there was a few times I even mentioned on the podcast and I've had some some offers where I said that doing a true crime, there isn't a lot
Starting point is 00:59:08 of black people in the true crime space doing that would be great, but I am not, I'm not that guy. I'm not the writing scripts. I'm not that guy. I'm not going to do all the research, put it all together. Obviously, plagiarizing is
Starting point is 00:59:24 not even on my mind. That's why I'm the person that I'm like, oh, I would have to write all this stuff, do all the research myself. I don't have time or the energy to do that. So I would have to employ somebody else. and the reason why I never gone through with it is for this very reason where I'm like I just
Starting point is 00:59:38 you don't you just don't know like you even the person who seems completely credible can easily just because I'm not going to do the level of vetting that needs to be done to be like okay let me check all this person's stuff to make sure none of this place or I'm just like fuck all that noise dude
Starting point is 00:59:56 I'm not the issue is there's a the issue is it's like there's a laziness inherent to it right where it's like okay like I don't want to do this Right? So I'm going to hand it off to somebody else. And so if I get it from somebody else, if I'm too lazy to do it, I'm definitely too lazy to fact check it or to make sure that it's like completely original.
Starting point is 01:00:17 And that's kind of why it's like, look, I don't know, H-bomber guy. Like, I remember making fun of him a little bit. I don't even remember why. But like we were just in opposing communities or whatever and we would make like jabs or whatever. But I appreciate the fact that this dude only puts out a video when it's actually done and when it's actually like a big fucking deal as opposed to just shit and stuff out
Starting point is 01:00:36 every fucking, you know, day or like every week. That's it. I appreciate that. At the very least. Yeah. Although I think his, I don't know, he's still,
Starting point is 01:00:48 there are a couple moments in his video that just like I, I roll a little bit where I'm just like, sure. All right. Come on. Like, he, he,
Starting point is 01:00:55 the thing that, the thing that really got my, got my attention of it was like, when he's talking about the IGN guy, Philip Mucin, who I remember specifically because Colin interviewed him and that interview is mentioned in this video.
Starting point is 01:01:09 And he interviewed him on Secret Symbols Plus. And it says under text of the interview, it says, this interview is with Colin Moriarty, who was kicked off of kind of funny for being a, you know, a rampant misogynist or something. And it's like,
Starting point is 01:01:24 the tweet that I, dude, it's ridiculous. Because the tweet that Colin posted was on. Oh, I remember the tweet. Go ahead. Yeah, it was like hashtag a day without a woman and he said ah peace and quiet which is the most fucking everybody loves Raymond king of queens late 90s early 2000 sitcom rated fucking e for everyone so so to write that
Starting point is 01:01:46 down and like that's misogyny but then like to in that same video kind of make excuses for Hassan who's literally been on stream talking about how like well at least they're date raping the rich girls is fucking insane to me and I just I don't that's that's something that I just I don't that level of political inconsistency because I'm out here making fun of fucking everybody and you know like
Starting point is 01:02:11 he's got dick in his mouth bro that's having someone's dicking him out yeah it is it is because especially because the video is about plagiarism and stealing content and then like you're I don't know I can't I cannot reconcile that in my head of just being like oh yeah but stole the reactions are fine
Starting point is 01:02:27 and and that's that's that's having fallacy you that's have a fallacy in your teeth And it's also weird because he did in that same video, he took small jabs at a YouTuber, sorry, streamers doing that freebooting thing where they leave and this let things play. Like he, it's one of those things where he's taking a couple of jabs to that. But it's, you see this so often where, you know, it's actually, speaking of Hassan, he's gotten a lot of shit from the commentary community because there's a YouTuber name. Willie Mack show that has been criticizing him. And then Hassan actually entertained it.
Starting point is 01:03:08 And he brought him on a stream and they debated. And it was this, it was the, like, Hassan is such a fucking piece of shit when he doesn't respect you. It's one of those things that like, like, I've seen him debate with Ethan Klein and he has all the patience in the world, right? He's being very cordial. He's not raising his voice and calling him every, But then Willie Mac comes on the thing
Starting point is 01:03:33 And he's just being the worst piece Like he's just being so hostile For no reason is crazy I will say this though About that specific debate Willie Mac did fucking horribly on that debate Like to the point where like I can't even I don't understand what even the point was
Starting point is 01:03:52 Because like he didn't have a point really Like his point seemed to be very bizarre Where like he was talking about how like Well you made a prediction it didn't turn out to be true, so therefore, like, you're wrong. It's like, that's not really what that means. Like, people predict shit all the time that's wrong, and that's not necessarily, like, can you, and there's also the issue of, like, you never, oh, you have to wait for all the information to be out before you make a call like that.
Starting point is 01:04:17 And it's like, how do you know when the information is out? How do you know that there's not going to be more information after, like, in a week or like in a year, or 10 years or 15 years? You know, like, it's just, his argument just seemed really poor. and then Hassan seemed like a fucking dickhead because he just couldn't respond to anything that he was actually saying but then Willie Mac wasn't saying anything it was like an embarrassing
Starting point is 01:04:38 it was so embarrassing from every like everybody came out of that looking like a fucking moron I couldn't believe it when I saw it I agree I agree with the because when it comes to debates if the commentary community they're fans and they know Willie so they know Willie Max
Starting point is 01:04:55 so obviously they were going to take his side no matter what and vice versa but me when I was looking at it. So from my understanding, Willie Mack's point was you predict these things and you don't fucking acknowledge when you fucked up.
Starting point is 01:05:10 But he did, though. I feel like that was his main point. Well, see, he didn't acknowledge it good enough and then he keeps doing it. But what's good enough, though. You know what I mean? So that's what that's the... No, I agree with that, but...
Starting point is 01:05:21 So my whole thing is... I think there's a big difference. I think the delay is crazy. I think, hold on. Oh, is it? Yeah. Yeah. I was just going to say real quick, I think the difference is there's a difference between giving your opinion and trying to make a hardcore prediction.
Starting point is 01:05:38 I think that's the big difference. Where what Hassan, with some of the examples that I saw, like when he was saying, like, Russia will not invade Ukraine being so fucking ironclad about that. Like, he's so sure of himself. And then so I think there's a difference between doing that and there's a difference between being like, I don't think, I don't think it's going to happen. like there's nothing wrong with saying I don't think it's going to happen and there's a difference between being like I am an authority on this and saying
Starting point is 01:06:05 I know this isn't going to happen and then when you get something demonstrably wrong if you have integrity like so there's a podcast I listen to called citation needed another one called cognitive dissonance whenever they fuck something up even when it's small on the next episode they're like oh hey by the way guys just small little correction
Starting point is 01:06:21 and it's just like it's not even a big deal it's not even a big deal but the issue that I have about with that whole thing thing is like he's he has done that though is the thing like he continues to be wrong but like you are going to be wrong if you're making predictions about the new especially like now where it's like most like it just was not a smart idea for russia to invade ukraine like it was just a bad idea like geopolitically and from like everybody's perspective so the prediction of like they would
Starting point is 01:06:48 be stupid it would it would be fucking crazy for them to invade ukraine it's not happening is kind of a reasonable position before they invade ukraine if they do invade ukraine that's a wild, that's a wildly fucking inept thing to do and that he's wrong about that, obviously, but it's not a ridiculous prediction. The language is different. The language is different. Yeah, but that's a semantic argument though then, isn't it? It's not semantic.
Starting point is 01:07:10 That it means everything between, it's just like, if you tell somebody, excuse me, and get the fuck out of the way, those mean two very big things, even though you want the same result. Like, these things matter. Hello, hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell,
Starting point is 01:07:25 host of the podcast Smart Talks with IBM. I recently sat down with IBM's chairman and CEO, Arvin Krishna, and I asked him, how can companies use AI to its fullest potential to create smarter business? My one advice to them, pick areas you can scale. Don't pick the shiny little toys on the side. For example. If anybody has more than 10% of what they had for customer service 10 years ago, they're already five years behind.
Starting point is 01:08:00 If anybody is not using AI to make their developers who write software 30% more productive today, with the goal of being 70% more productive. So we are not asking our clients to be the first experiment on it. We say, you can leverage what we did. We're happy to bring out all our learnings, including what needs to change in the process, because the biggest change is not technology, is getting people to accept. that there's a different way to do things. To listen to the full conversation,
Starting point is 01:08:32 visit IBM.com slash smart talks. All right, quick quiz for the hiring managers out there. What's worse? Being understaffed or being poorly staffed?

It's very different than being like, I know this is going to happen versus I believe this is
Starting point is 01:10:07 going to happen. What it shows you is that, like, number one, you're not some arrogant prick being like, I know everything. It's just being like, I feel strongly about this, but there's also room for doubt, which is how we're supposed to navigate through life. That's how we're supposed to even deal with information in the first place, but not saying I know what this is versus I think I know what this is. Like I think that's very important to use that distinction to be like like imagine somebody saying like I know for a fucking fact
Starting point is 01:10:35 The GTA 5 is not coming on 2025 and it's like well fuck are like why are you saying that versus like I really don't think I guess the question that I'm asking is like what is what are the repercussions for making a relatively safe prediction that turns out to be wrong well first of all see As a political figure you know look I just want real quick it's like I feel like there's still like the the disconnect between us because the way that you're framing it it reminds me of like say what the media does when they try to downplay the way something went down is use a specific language where it's like oh reasonably like no see you can make the prediction it's not about the prediction it is in the way that he was so like there's no way that this is going to happen he is so ironclad about it you can easily just say like i don't think this is going to happen man i would be totally
Starting point is 01:11:24 surprised if it went down this way no one would have said shit because that is totally reasonable But when he's basically batting people down and being like, you're a fucking idiot if you think this is going to happen. Like you are like there's no way this is going to happen. That language is so fucking different. Yeah. Yeah. That's fair. And that's fair.
Starting point is 01:11:42 And the thing that bothered me, the thing that bothered me about Willie Mack was when or how he chose to approach it was that his focus was just like you keep getting things wrong. But it's like that will happen. Like just if you're reporting news because not all the information is always out all the time. Like even if you get, if you are at the end of a week of like a story, right, there could always be new information that comes out later. Then like, what do you just wait until like you got to inform people on what's going on in some way, even if that means you have to make a correction later on the line. So like focusing on the fact that he was getting predictions wrong, I thought it was like really fucking weird and lazy and dumb because there's nothing really inherently wrong with that. He did go in to, he did go into like, especially if they do make corrections with which I hate, I don't like Hassan at all. I don't want to say I hate him.
Starting point is 01:12:27 I don't really know him that well at all. But I don't actually I'm indifferent. I'm indifferent. I'm indifferent. I'm in different. Yeah. I'm kind of indifferent, which is funny. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:34 I just think he's, you know, he's lazy and it's not really that interesting. And the news analysis is not really all that top tier, you know? Right, right. I don't know. Like I, uh, his, his focus on that was weird, I thought. Because that's not really a big deal. Hassan is correct in him being a drama farmer. Let's be real about that.
Starting point is 01:12:56 Willie Mack is not doing that. because he thinks he thinks Hassan should do better. Let's be like say me, why I even got heated at all is that I, I feel passionate. People that are in these positions and I say like I, I hate talking about how dumb people are on average, but it's just reality. And so I just want people to not,
Starting point is 01:13:18 you wouldn't be able to do what Hassan was doing if people were smart on average. And they know this. So they take advantage of people's ignorance and their stupidity. and it pisses me off. I'm somebody that like, I feel like if you are, we have to protect these people. We have to protect,
Starting point is 01:13:34 we have to do better to protect these people that like, say, that's why like, you know, even like when you're giving that example if somebody went down a certain pipeline because of me,
Starting point is 01:13:41 I wouldn't feel any sort of way because I've examined my content, anything that I thought was even like, for example, I thought maybe some people were getting inspired in the wrong way about my takes on Black Lives Matter because they weren't listening.
Starting point is 01:13:53 They were just like, oh, yeah, you're shitting on black people. It was kind of like that And I'm like, you guys are missing You didn't listen to a fucking word that I said I'm like, I don't like It's really frustrating
Starting point is 01:14:02 It really So it's one of those things Where I took this video down Dude No yeah I know what you're I know what you mean Yeah yeah yeah But like that shit
Starting point is 01:14:10 I remember that bothering me back in the day too Because I was just like Because the organization Was doing so many weird dumb fucking things And I remember Specifically talking about like Hey this is about the organization
Starting point is 01:14:22 By the way I'm not talking about like The slogan or fucking anything This is literally about the real problems that are happening. I'm talking about these individuals in this group who are doing a really fucking stupid. I remember when they, what is it, they shut down that airport because they said that like climate change was racist or something. Do you remember that when they lay down on the tarmac? I do.
Starting point is 01:14:45 I do. I do. I do. I do. I remember that. Like, come on. This is, this is fucking stupid. What are you doing?
Starting point is 01:14:52 I just, I, I can't find. I hate to sound so cold and so cynical. but I can't, I can no longer. You're getting older. Truly use my heart to defend people that have tried their hardest not to educate themselves anymore. I'm sorry. Yeah. Like,
Starting point is 01:15:08 you're getting older, man. I wish, I wish there was another means of them to be able to understand these things and be able to accept the ability to be able to figure things out on their own and not be manipulated so easily. But I just can't give a fuck as much. much as I used to. Look, I'm not even telling. I'm not, look, and I want to make this clear to the, you know, everyone listening. I'm not even saying that I'm not even demanding like, oh,
Starting point is 01:15:34 you guys need to give a fuck. It's just the reality that collectively we don't. And it's something, of course, it frustrates me, but I will tell you this. If Trump wins again, I am on that team. I'm on team. I'm on team that like, there's, I don't. I don't. I don't give up. I don't even give up. I, I, I, I, I consider myself someone that loves people. Trump wins again. I give up. I, I, I don't care anymore. I'm telling you. What, like, bro, even from the beginning of my, my, my time on it, right? Like, finding people, people that would, instead of going and figuring out these things themselves
Starting point is 01:16:09 and informing themselves about things that are important to them politically and socially, if you choose to get that from the internet and people in general, that is a problem in my mind. I think you have to study it yourself to figure out what you feel about it. Obviously, let people inform you about things you might not understand. The internet is a form of study, though. Like, I don't think that's, I think the issue, the issue really is just the way that the internet has changed. But also read it yourself. Figured out these things yourself.
Starting point is 01:16:37 Well, that's how most people will read, Kingston. That's fucking crazy to me. I think, well, why would you go to a, why would you, why is that crazy? Why would you go to a, why would you, like, find a library? The literature about the thing is this is just the literature. No, no, no, the literature has its own biases. What are you talking about it? No, no, literature.
Starting point is 01:16:57 You know? Yeah, but so does the literature that informs our history. As a content creator that there's just a big in content. No, no, I understand. I'm not saying find it from a single sort. Like, here's the issue, right? The issue really is that the internet has changed into a, from something that was more driven by people searching for things.
Starting point is 01:17:16 No. I think it's changed from a place where people actively went out of their way to search for things versus now people don't really have that instinct because everything is fed to them by algorithms. There's not really an incentive to search. You see this in the decline of subscribers over a lot of YouTubers who like just or even just in content creation in general
Starting point is 01:17:32 where like subscriptions really aren't that important anymore. Now it's like engagement, viewership, consistency, all that stuff. People don't even really subscribe to shit anymore unless it's like genuine subscription services where they're paying for their, where they're fucking paying for something, which is obviously like, obviously the case
Starting point is 01:17:46 for a lot of things that are subscription models now. It's because people don't need to subscribe to things because people can just reliably expect that the stuff that they want to see or the stuff that they're interested, is going to find its way somehow across their automatically fed TikTok for you page or their Twitter for you page or their YouTube for you page. People don't know how to go out and search for things because they
Starting point is 01:18:03 expected to be just spoon fed to them by some robot who doesn't care about them. That's honestly, I think fundamentally at the core of a lot of this is what's happening. Not necessarily that it wouldn't happen without it. I do think it's accelerated it though drastically to a point where it's like, fuck man. I so many people don't even look for YouTube videos anymore they don't look for articles they don't really like I know so many people who get their opinions straight up from just the videos that they come across on TikTok that are just so happen to be political and they don't read up on it at all they don't look up that's insane to me dude but it makes sense that it's reality it's real sense that that happens it makes sense that happens because I'm sure I'm sure absolutely that like I've I mean I have my own political opinions as is if I see a video that comes across that reinforces it I'm probably just gonna like yeah yeah Yeah, whatever. I believe that, right? And I was just going to keep scrolling because I don't have time.
Starting point is 01:18:56 I don't have the time, really. Like, I'm already on my break as it is if I'm scrolling through this shit. I've got a lot to do. The average person, I would imagine who works way, way, way, way, way, way more than I do. Probably has even less time on their hands to really go out and actually seek out that information for themselves. So we're at a situation where people are working fucking insane hours, like seven jobs a fucking week. And they got no time to be, they have no time to be smarter. That's a step.
Starting point is 01:19:20 People don't have time to arm themselves on information quite as much, right? What happened is when they come to these things about these, especially things that are radical, these radical things that are very, very important and very much so defining to who their character is, you need to be as well versus as you can about these things before you make these things, things you champion, you know?
Starting point is 01:19:45 Well, what if I don't think they're half important, though. They don't think it's important. Like for me, right, for me, right? I'm very much so somebody that believes in equal rights and fair to the right person. Shut the fuck up. The race can all that bullshit, right?
Starting point is 01:20:00 Yeah, whatever. Yeah, it's a lie, but I'm saying it right now. So I'm saying it fair to right. What I did was, what you call it? What I found out about a lot of these misbehaviors or unfair things about the American history. What I did is I looked up on it, right? I went as, I was in school. I found about the brown coat laws, right? I found that about, uh, um, the partide and all that shit, right? And instead of being like, I believe this.
Starting point is 01:20:21 entirely, though, but I read more about it. Yeah. But, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, that is, that is, that is. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it.
Starting point is 01:20:33 That's it. That's it. That's, look, look, look, look, look, look. That makes you gay. I should be on our flag. It should, can you imagine in the debates? There won't be any debates, but like, if we had debates for some reason this year, uh, or like, this coming year, right?
Starting point is 01:20:49 I feel like the first person to say, shut up your gay, would win. Because that's kind of the level of seriousness that we put into this stuff now at this point. Like if Trump came out there and debated Biden and Trump was like, you're gay. You're so gay. You're so gay. The theater would erupt. It's over. It's over.
Starting point is 01:21:14 It's over. I want Joe Biden to start calling Donald Trump the N-word. That would get me back on. They'll get back on board. That would be so crazy. He's not that kind of guy. But like this the hot. This nigga's fucking dumb, man.
Starting point is 01:21:26 Look at him. He's fucking orange. Come on, man. That'd be crazy. I wonder if there would be a way. Come here, Jim Bob. Let me give you a roughen up, huh? I wonder if he's old enough.
Starting point is 01:21:35 I wonder if he's old enough that there's a way for you to like kind of like, I don't know, man. Like if you played like, I don't know, if you played just rap videos for him while he's sleeping. And just sort of wake, woke. And just. No, no, no, like, you know how like a, like a, when you're, when you're pregnant, apparently, like, it's good to like have classical music blasting. That's not real, obviously, but, but that was like a suspicion for a while where it's like, what if you could reprogram Joe Biden in his elderly. In his elderly years to believe that he was indeed incredibly black.
Starting point is 01:22:11 And he just started adopting the nomenclature and the verbiage and the. You said normanclature. That's insane. If I used to said that word and fucking casual conversation. but continue. What's right? I've heard someone say that other than like philosophical reports about race.
Starting point is 01:22:29 But like, go ahead. He blast nothing but Snoop Dogg. Nothing but Snoop Dog. He wakes up and he thinks he's Snoop D-O-D-W-G. He becomes Snoop. You have to have his staffers wake up. It's like, welcome. Good morning, Snoop.
Starting point is 01:22:42 You have to have his staffers say, Good morning, Snoop. How's your rest? Good morning, Snoop Dog. Here's your applesau. Snoop Dog. Snoop Dog. The shizzle.
Starting point is 01:22:52 Yeah, and he's like, oh, for shizzle. That's really funny, but also super not. Because he's like senile. That's like really hilarious, but also like genuinely not the right thing to do to somebody that's going through that. Your purpose when you're senile is to create a more entertaining world for the people that surround you. There's nothing really left for you outside of that at that point. Like it's, it's, you know, I mean, what are you going to do? You're going to start a business?
Starting point is 01:23:20 Like what? Yeah. Donating everything you can. Why would you do that? Yeah, that's fucking over. Do a fucking EO, G. Anyway, let's get into fucking questions finally.
Starting point is 01:23:32 Jesus Christ. I don't know how we even ended up here. Emmett Daly. Somebody's gay. Emmett Daly wrote it and he says, Well, boys, what was your favorite Christmas present you ever received?
Starting point is 01:23:46 Have a wonderful Christmas. A little early to wish us a Merry Christmas, but I appreciate it. nevertheless. We are in the season. I don't know what the best... I don't know what the best Christmas gift I ever got was because I conflate my Christmas with my birthday a lot, with my birthday a lot. Because they're both in December and like usually Christmas decorations are up by the time
Starting point is 01:24:05 it was my birthday. There's Christmas music blasting all over the place. So my core memories of birthday gifts and Christmas gifts are all fused together. Like I do not remember. What the fuck was what? But I assume... Mine is easy. Hello, hello. I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast, Smart Talks with IBM. I recently sat down with IBM's chairman and CEO, Arvin Krishna.
Starting point is 01:24:26 And I asked him, how can companies use AI to its fullest potential to create smarter business? My one advice to them, pick areas you can scale. Don't pick the shiny little toys on the side. For example. If anybody has more than 10% of what they had for customer service, 10 years, years ago, they're already five years behind. If anybody is not using AI to make their developers who write software 30% more productive today, with the goal of being 70% more productive.
Starting point is 01:25:06 So we are not asking our clients to be the first experiment on it. We say you can leverage what we did. We're happy to bring out all our learnings, including what needs to change in the process, because the biggest change is not technology, is getting people to accept. that there's a different way to do things.

Starting point is 01:27:18 I got Budakai for my birthday. Dragon Ballsie Budakai 1 for the PS2 and I didn't have a PS2 and they gave me the PS2 at Christmas. And so I just sit and sit and sit and stare at a PS2 was coming.
Starting point is 01:27:36 I knew that a PS2 was coming or you know, I could be misremembering this because I think I think what happened was that I saw Budakai like in my dad's dad's dad. desk. I forgot, I was looking for like staples or something or like some office supplies for a school project
Starting point is 01:27:54 or something that I had to do. And then I opened up the Disney and I saw Dragon Balls-A-Budekai and I was like, my dad definitely does not play Dragon Balls-E-Budekai. And I definitely don't have a PS2 because this is an apartment and I would have found it by now. And I found it and I was like, I got so excited and my dad saw that I had found it.
Starting point is 01:28:13 And then I think he was like, oh, well, here you go. Here's happy birthday. And it was like it was Budikai and the PS2 or I think I didn't get it for my birthday and he gave it for me for Christmas intentionally that might be it's probably the smarter way to do it really is to save the amazing gifts for Christmas so you're not like blowing your load
Starting point is 01:28:30 too early. Yeah yeah it was something like that but I remember it was 2002 specifically because I played You got an Arthur toy? Because I really liked Arthur when I was young I still really really that's still really important to my heart I hate that's even crowd on it though I don't know if I was watching
Starting point is 01:28:47 at that period of time. It really bothers me. I don't know if I was watching that period of time. I don't understand. So, so wait, wait, you have a toy of Arthur.
Starting point is 01:28:55 Yeah, it's a toy. It's an toy. What does that mean? Like an action figure? You know, like tickle me Elmo's, like stuffed toys?
Starting point is 01:29:03 Oh, like a plushy? Like, you know when you'd press their hands and they would say something? Those toys was back in the day toys? That's still, that's a stuffed animal.
Starting point is 01:29:12 That's not a toy. I guess. So yeah, it was more of one of those. And I was like maybe six. You know what I mean? Like, I don't know,
Starting point is 01:29:17 How did you find toys? My parents, my grandma was gonna be like educational bullshit. Like, I never like, I never, I never got like real awesome shit. And then there's dolls,
Starting point is 01:29:29 there's action figures, there's cards, you know, like, it's all toys, but. I guess when I think of toy, I think of hard plastic.
Starting point is 01:29:37 I think when I think of toys. You know what I mean? I don't think of like stuffed animals as toys because they're more like, I can send them all toys. Those are all just toys. Yeah, they're all,
Starting point is 01:29:46 they're all, like I think it's, but I specify action figures when I'm a, I got a Spider-Man action figure. Yeah, because that's what we called them action figures. I love that we call the action figures and then you would get mad if like
Starting point is 01:29:56 a doll, a doll or something. Like, fuck you bitch. It's an action figure. Fucking call that shit. You just call them slurs these entire times? You still have any of your actual figures? You guys still have any of your action figures? You guys still have any of them anymore. Damn.
Starting point is 01:30:12 That's recently acquired. Dan, you didn't keep any of them, man. That sucks. It breaks my heart, dude. Yeah, damn. I definitely, I kept so many. I had one that I moved from New York. I had one that I really loved.
Starting point is 01:30:27 I had one that I really loved where it was a Spider-Man figure. It was a Toby McGuire Spider-Man figure from like, I think Spider-Man 2. And it had Magnus in the hands and feet. So he could like, he could like claim to like anything that was metal. And I would like put him fucking everywhere. I put him on like the fridge. I put him on like the metal bars on my window and like, just, I don't know. Something about that was magical to me.
Starting point is 01:30:46 I was like, this is so fucking cool by Spider-Bat. by Spider-Man toy sticks the walls. So when I moved from the Bronx to upstate New York and the Duchess County, my uncle had a McFarlane toy with Spider-Man with all the, when he had the black suit on, the famous McFarlane photos. But he had the black suit on with a bunch of webs around him. And he said it was worth a ton of money.
Starting point is 01:31:05 And I remember when I was moving, I broke it. And I was one of my favorite figures ever and I broke it. And I really, I want to start playing the figures again, but I don't have the space one. And then two, Lily would not be okay with me putting it.
Starting point is 01:31:18 I'm in a house right now. Like, once we get like a bigger place, because it's not big enough. It's not big enough for that. It's a really small place. Yeah, just put up shelves where there's nothing.
Starting point is 01:31:28 There's nothing in that, that little part right before your, uh, the ceiling, you put up shelves and then you put them up around your shit. All I was going to do is drive her crazy. This is going to drive her crazy than being right there. And it's going to drive her to touch them.
Starting point is 01:31:40 And my thing is, so is this your, is this your place or is this her place? It's our place, but it's, it's her place featuring me. It's her place. Yeah, exactly. That's a great way to put it.
Starting point is 01:31:51 It's her place featuring you. This is her home. Yeah. And this is where I work. Did I ever whip out my action figures on this podcast? I don't remember. Because I still have like a handful of them from when I was like fucking 10 and younger. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:32:09 I think I have them, but they're in my New York. They're in my New York home with my parents. I definitely didn't pack them and take them. but I have a lot of Spider-Man ones I have a lot of Dragon Ball Z figures I have a lot of I have a lot of I had Power Rangers stuff
Starting point is 01:32:26 but I don't know what the fuck happened to it and it wasn't Power Rangers action figures I think I had the Green Ranger action figure but it was more like the tools that they had like some gauntlet that they would wear or like some belt you know what I mean like their weird gadgets
Starting point is 01:32:39 oh yeah like the power that holds their morpher the belt that holds them over yeah or like a laser gun from like I don't know like it was cool shit I think Jason had a laser gun. He had a gun.
Starting point is 01:32:51 He also had a sword. I think they all had guns. They all had guns. They all had guns. Jason had a sword. They all had pistols. And then, but Zach, his axe also turned into a gun, which was pretty cool. Zach is.
Starting point is 01:33:05 The Black Ranger? The Black Ranger, the guy that played E2 eventually. Yeah. The fact that he was Echigo was hilarious. But, dude, I remember. I miss Power Rangers so much. I had so many Power Rangers. Rangers growing up. I had so many different kinds.
Starting point is 01:33:19 I have none. I just got left, man. I had the Paranger's movie toys that they were selling for McDonald's, all the shit and I think about like... You could put the Ranger in the back of the toy, and the girl had the to the girl had the taradactyl. The Red Range had the um, the gorilla. Yeah. Oh, dude. You know what I had a lot of?
Starting point is 01:33:37 For whatever reason? I don't know why. I must have been like super into this at, like a really early age. Or maybe it was just a lot of hand-me-downs. but I had so many fucking toy cars, like tiny, fucking tiny toy cars. Oh, and never bought them. Like,
Starting point is 01:33:56 micro machines. No, but like, I had a fucking, I had a, basically like a fucking crate of these things. Some of them, like you could open the doors too
Starting point is 01:34:02 and I remember being like, this is so fucking cool. And not like the ones you get at like CBS, you know, like the gas stations where like they have that weird rack of toy cars that are like they're really big kind of. These are like really small like hot wheels like level. I think I,
Starting point is 01:34:13 like micromachines. Yeah, yeah. Like I, and bus, Yeah, I don't know what the exact brand is I think I was too young to even know what a brand was at that time But
Starting point is 01:34:21 Hot Wheels were fucking dope I remember I don't know It's been a while I'm sure I have more toys than I'm even aware of If I like went into like my parents' attic And really dug through some of the shit I'd probably find a lot of stuff
Starting point is 01:34:35 Because Hold on I'm gonna grab my bag Because I know I have a handful You guys keep having sex I will say There's one There's one toy that I got
Starting point is 01:34:46 for my birthday that I think I'll, I have a picture of it, and it's why it's so seminal to me. But I got my first video camera. It was a digital blue, it was a digital blue, uh, camcorder. It was like a kid's camera specifically. And it was like for children to like make videos. And I have a picture of me opening up, opening up on Christmas. It was like 2003 or something. And it's important just because it's like weirdly seminal for me.
Starting point is 01:35:12 And I hate, I don't like the word seminal because it sounds a little bit like semen, but it's, you know, it's, It's accurate, nevertheless. So, Derek's going to fetch his toys. I wish I had... I wish I kept more than I got rid of. Or, like, broke or lost. I got all my shit, man. All of my stuff is gone.
Starting point is 01:35:32 Why'd you do that? Did your parents just do that? Or did your grandmother do that and not tell you? I just moved. Whenever I moved, because I moved so many times. And you just threw it away? Did you donate them at least? I would lose them and the movement.
Starting point is 01:35:46 There's a bunch of shit. happen, but I would always like lose shit. And I'm like, oh man, I really upset how much of shit I just got rid of stuff. I would just lose stuff. Yeah. And I would just lose stuff. I really wish. I had so many Spider-Man toys that's ridiculous.
Starting point is 01:36:01 Like that was like the go-to gift for everybody to me. It was like Spider-Man's. Now it's Halo stuff. If people see a Halo thing, they'll grab it for me and they'll get it for me and it'll always be every birthday I get at least one Master Chief. I'm up to my eyes and fucking Master's. Hello, hello. I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of Smart Talks with IBM. I recently spoke with IBM's new director of research, Jake Gambata.
Starting point is 01:36:25 We discussed his vision for the future of quantum computing. At IBM Research, what we always do is answer what is the future of computing, whether it's coming up with new algorithms, coming up with better AI, coming up with quantum, or coming up with just how do different accelerators go together. It's our DNA to answer the question of what. What is the future? Isn't it a perfect problem for IBM because you kind of need to have a legacy of building stuff? Yes.
Starting point is 01:36:53 Building actual physical machines. Yeah, it's why I came to IBM. I wanted the experience, the culture of building hard things that others have not done before. Where do you imagine we are in the timeline of this technology? There will come a point when it will mature. Right? Yeah. My cell phone is a mature technology at this point. How far are we from that point with quantum?
Starting point is 01:37:21 By 2029, we'll build the first fault-tolerant quantum computer. That is one that can run a very, very large, large problem. To learn how IBM is building the future of computing, visit IBM.com slash quantum. All right, quick quiz for the hiring managers out there. What's worse? Being understaffed or being poorly staffed?

Chiefs at this point, which I appreciate because I didn't like Halo. much, I didn't like Halo that much when I was younger
Starting point is 01:38:49 enough to get the toys, but the toys are actually pretty fucking cool. But, yeah, I don't know. It's, uh, I can't in good conscience collect any, any new things now. Oh, no. And I, I, I, I, did you find him? I, I didn't find all of them, but I have three here. I have, this is from, uh, the X-Men, hell yeah, it was great. Um, this is from the, uh, X-Men versus Street Fighter run,
Starting point is 01:39:15 where they would come with an X-Men or Street Fighter, so, I don't remember who Cyclops came with you, I think. It might have, because I definitely had Ryu for sure. It would make sense if they came together. That's cool. I bought all, I had all of the Resident Evil two things, so I still have, uh, oh yeah, man. Like, I, everything that I still have is like, and like, not even flimsy and shit. Like, it's still, so this is a Claire Redfield.
Starting point is 01:39:39 Ew. My bitch. Because I had, I had Leon and everybody. I had, but this is the only one. She had a knife action, like in the back. so she heard fucking like Like that she can move her shit I always hated those toys
Starting point is 01:39:52 Where they had like a specific Like a little lever one Just like just give me a poseable joints on everything And just let me do what I fucking want with it What you doing? Yeah I had a green goblin toy like that Where he could only he could only
Starting point is 01:40:03 His only pose His only pose was this Stop dude That's all That's all he could do Yeah so he couldn't like I had one I did get one that eventually
Starting point is 01:40:16 I did get one that eventually stood up. The cool, oh, that just reminded me of like, I had a Green Goblin, like a Norman Osborne, like Toby McGuire, like a Willem Defoe Norman Osborne in the Green Goblin suit, but the helmet came off. I loved that fucking toy. That's a six Spider-Man also.
Starting point is 01:40:34 We got to see the back of Spider-Man. What does a symbol look like in the back? So I don't remember which run this is from. Oh, what the fuck? That was like a crab. It's like a crab. I don't remember the run. of this, but one thing I know specifically about
Starting point is 01:40:48 this is I used to have a little shih Tzu, or a Cocker Spaniel Shih Tzu, and I got to him just in time where that motherfucker started to gnaw his fingers. That stupid fucking dog started to gnaw his fingers off, but I was so mad, but everything else is in
Starting point is 01:41:04 good condition, but he got a couple, he got a couple fingers. But all my stuff is from movies. Relatively good condition. I didn't, the only movie version of a toy that I bought was when the first X-Men movie came out, I bought the Wolverine with the jumpsuit on, the black one,
Starting point is 01:41:22 and I lost it in Tijuana. I was so pissed. What you brought with you to Mexico? We all traveled in a van, and I'm bringing my toys playing, you know, I'm trying to entertain myself. You drove the Tijuana?
Starting point is 01:41:35 Yeah, oh, dude, that's like fucking, like, two and a half hours away. That's crazy. From where we live? It's not that far away. It's really not that far at all. I drove.
Starting point is 01:41:44 I drove to Tijuana. San Diego. Yeah. It's like right, but it's right past San Diego. Like when we were, when I took my parents to San Diego, I remember being like,
Starting point is 01:41:52 oh shit, we're really close to Tijuana. It's crazy. It was only like two hours. But, yeah, so it's not that long of a drive, but it's so funny too
Starting point is 01:42:00 because I remember like, I had some, I had like Blacksute Spider-Man like the original one. But I really loved those movie toys because like I was so fascinated by the designs of them. And they were still like good quality of them.
Starting point is 01:42:11 It was that was when they did that's I wish I would have got them. They were really fucking good actually. I still have some of them and they keep well and all that stuff. But I remember specifically what was weird about him, especially for the first movie. The first movie specifically had this weird run of toys where it was just weird scenes from the movie. But like, so you'd have like some kind of set dressing and then the action figure.
Starting point is 01:42:34 And one, I will never forget, was Peter Parker in his room like this? It was just Peter Parker. And this was his only pose. It was this. And I think it like shot. a web or like a web ball or something and the other thing that it came with was
Starting point is 01:42:52 a fake like a dresser with a Dr. Pepper and a lamp on it. I specifically remember this. That's pretty cool. What the fuck? But it's so weird. That's like that's like that's like having like Green Goblin
Starting point is 01:43:05 that's like having Green Goblin and Aunt May at just you know what I mean? Like oh this is the scene where Green Goblin burst through Aunt May's fucking so we got to make a fucking Aunt May action figure for it. It's like, why that's the shit that I want now, though? Yeah, I know what you mean. Yeah. That's the shit that I want now.
Starting point is 01:43:22 Right? Like, that's just Fortnite. The obscure shit. That's just Fortnite now. That's all that is. That is. That is, that is Fortnite. That's just what, man, dude, I, there's some toys that I still want to find, uh, because I had, I had all the, uh, they had the, all the symbiates, all the symbiots, they had a line of, um,
Starting point is 01:43:41 and that was, they were, the designs were fucking amazing. Riot, I bought that shit. Before I even, knew who the fuck riot was like the toy because it was like this big it was like big and so he was the coolest looking of all of them i was like this is fucking crazy i was red right purple guys look at this look at this i'm sending something in the chat this is a real toy i didn't have this one
Starting point is 01:44:01 so this is a real toy uh is it's fucking mary jane on the balcony it's only i mean it's fifty four dollars which inflation wise makes sense actually She's weighing her fucking cultural appropriation dress. It's the cultural appropriation dress on the balcony that she gets blown fucking out from under. They just had all these like hyper-specific scenes.
Starting point is 01:44:28 I wonder if I could find... Man, I wish I would have got some of these. I never fucking said. I don't know why I didn't get them. I'm trying to find the Dr. God. Peter Parker toy. It's such a weird...
Starting point is 01:44:42 Oh! This is crazy. yeah it's on eBay for 80 bucks look at this this is actually
Starting point is 01:44:54 he's doing the pose he's doing the pose and it comes with the fucking the dresser and the lamp and like the backpack I see the soda
Starting point is 01:45:05 and you can get the soda it's so fucking insane he has like these tiny glasses it's a ridiculous fucking pose yeah
Starting point is 01:45:16 Yeah, like these ones suck. That is a $75 toy in a $8 a toy. Camera, the backpack, the fucking, that's great. That's so stupid. I want it. I want to play with $20. Oh, there's a $40 one. There's a $40 one.
Starting point is 01:45:32 So I can let go. Somebody selling them theirs for $40. If you, like, it said there's like recommended ones. I don't need it. This is the lamest toy that I had probably. It's like, I think I just, I think I used to the, You know what's funny about it? I think I had more fun with the dresser
Starting point is 01:45:50 than the Peter Parker figure because I can at least use it to set up like I put it in like a Lego house or something, you know what I mean? I don't know. Man, I fucking, I definitely wish I had the capacity and the imagination to play with toys
Starting point is 01:46:07 but I just, because I remember like a lot of scenarios I used to do. I remember each room was a different realm the way that I would play with toys. the like say if I was in the bathtub that was like a whole like water world kind of a thing you know whatever
Starting point is 01:46:21 Yeah The top bunk Because me and my brother used to share rooms When I was younger And so the top bunk was like Some Mortal Kombat type of like You fall to your death thing And I had one of my Wolverine
Starting point is 01:46:31 That had the spring action To release the claws He exploded when he fell on the ground I was so pissed up I don't do it just didn't make sense It was like it wasn't glued together And he just exploded I was like what the fuck
Starting point is 01:46:44 And that's all over Hovering dies. That's hovering dies and that's... Dude, that happened to a... I had a... I had a Superboo toy that was like it was, um... It was him after he absorbed Gohan's. It was like Superboo with like the long,
Starting point is 01:46:58 the long, um, head tail. And then like the, the Goku vest. And I was playing it with it one day and I made it. I was like, I don't remember who I was fighting with him, but I was like, I was having to fight somebody. And then I had him kick. And then he fucking exploded. I don't know what the fuck happened.
Starting point is 01:47:15 crazy. His legs, both of his legs came off. And then I tried to pick him up and then his head. And I was like, whoa, this thing just had like the last of its health completely dwindled in a way that I've never seen before or since. Oh, man. I would love having Spider-Man fight Dragon Balls, the characters. And Spider-Man, I would always have Spider-Man be way weaker than him. So he'd be scared and shit.
Starting point is 01:47:42 He'd be like, I don't want to fight anyone here. You guys blow a planet. I'm the Spider-Man. And I'd have him fight Venom. And I'd have Spider-Man, like, walk. I would duct tape Spider-Man to play this in my room. They were, like, I'd play Tape Spider-Man to. And I'd play Spider-Man's on the wall, like, watch people fight.
Starting point is 01:47:56 Oh, my God. I have Spider-Man fight, like, a bunch of Transformers, too. Ah, man, that was... Would you nut on them? Would you, like, tape your Spider-Man? No, but I would definitely take a lot. I would definitely look at the Black Cat one for an abnormal amount of time. Yeah, that's what I did with my Chun Lee.
Starting point is 01:48:12 I wish I never had a black cat to it. I was of, out of, this is kind of last thing and we'll move on. I had a chummy. Oh, yeah. Hello, hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Smart Talks with IBM. I recently sat down with IBM's chairman and CEO, Arvin Krishna. And I asked him, how can companies use AI to its fullest potential to create smarter business? My one advice to that, pick areas you can scale.
Starting point is 01:48:41 Don't pick the shiny little toys on the side. For example, if anybody has more than 10% of what they had for customer service 10 years ago, they're already five years behind. If anybody is not using AI to make their developers who write software 30% more productive today, with the goal of being 70% more productive. So we are not asking our clients to be the first experiment on it. We say you can leverage what we did. We're happy to bring out all our learnings, including what needs to change in the process, because the biggest change is not technology,
Starting point is 01:49:23 is getting people to accept that there's a different way to do things. To listen to the full conversation, visit IBM.com slash smart talks.

Starting point is 01:50:42 This is kind of cool, actually. Yeah. I didn't know that this toy existed at all. That's cool shit. Oh, nice. I can do the scream. I can't get that high. He would hit the ground?
Starting point is 01:51:00 $150 though. Holy shit. I hate. I love that movie. I hate that Peter won that fight, though. Because Norman was beating a flaming fuck out of him, bro. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 01:51:12 So how do they continue the franchise? I know. He looks. Yo, if you Google. But Norman was beating a dog. Norman was bodying him. He was fucking him. dude. It was badass.
Starting point is 01:51:23 Oh, man. It's kind of Asian. So there's a... I don't know what website this is. It's M-E-R-C-A-R-I. If you Google Spider-Man 2, if you Google Spider-Man 2 movie toy biz, battle-damaged lot Marvel Legends 2004,
Starting point is 01:51:41 which is a lot to Google, but it's the easiest way to get this across. There's a... If you Google that, you'll find this entry for like $150 on this toy of Green Goblin and Battle damage green goblin and spider man at the end of spider man one if you click on the picture that is just peter parker he looks so fucking his face looks so wildly traumatized it's insane
Starting point is 01:52:03 that is the most traumatized peter i have ever seen by a lot poor god damn his eyes are blue and that's a problem but still poor guy anyway so yellow is that is that the saturation he looks it's probably I mean, it's probably... He's jondous. Totally. I mean, honestly, if you're... It's... It's probably the same reason, like, Sega,
Starting point is 01:52:29 like, not Sega, like, Dreamcasts are fucking yellow now. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, fair enough. He's fucking jaundiced. But, all right. He just exploded his liver.
Starting point is 01:52:41 John dis. He exploded his liver. He just gets... What does that say? Con... All right, so this guy's name is come Somalier. I don't know. I don't know what that means, but he says, for Christmas, but he says for Christmas, Somalié, it might be actually.
Starting point is 01:52:57 He says, for Christmas, may I have a single use N-word pass? Preface, I'm white, snowy, blonde man in his 20s with no black friends. I thought this was interesting, specifically because the implication here, the implication here is that he only needs it once. He's only asked, because some people ask for an N-word pass or whatever, but like this is, like, he is specifying a limit of, only one use, which means someone hurt this man. You've got something approved for sure. Why does he not have any black friends?
Starting point is 01:53:34 It is, yeah. Well, maybe he's in Maine or something. Yeah, if so, like, locations important. It's so weird. It's like not having, it's like, you never hear like, I have no white friends. It's like, what the fuck you have no white friends at all? Like, I did, I did so weird to not have any friends
Starting point is 01:53:50 of the opposite. Well, I mean, Maine, I mean, Maine, dude, is like 95% white. It's crazy. No, but not to the degree that you would reliably know one. Utah. Utah is a place that you, you know, you can easily not have black friends if you're a Mormon in Utah. If you lived in Idaho, because there was a lot of crazy right-wing extremists that moved there a long time ago. Same with Wyoming.
Starting point is 01:54:18 There's some places where you could run into. people that have like, I just never, they just don't live around here. So what are the odds? That's crazy. Yeah. I mean, it's crazy to us, but yeah. So I wonder where this guy lives. But to give him one, see, here's the thing. Like I think I've said on the show before, it's all on you, man. Like it is, we will grant you one single use, a single use inward pass. And the consequences solely fall on you to whatever you're going to use it for. Yeah. That's the best way to
Starting point is 01:54:54 back to us what happens. I don't want to be how responsible for you getting hurt. I don't know. See, if he's if he's going to use it a derogatory way towards somebody
Starting point is 01:55:02 that is his responsibility, if he just wants to stand in the middle of like, you know, maybe his town square or something and just shout it. And, you know,
Starting point is 01:55:10 I get it. That's all you want to do. You feel powerful. Bucket list. Bucket list. I'm dying. I'm dying tomorrow. I have three days to live.
Starting point is 01:55:20 I want to run into the middle of the town square and shout the N-word. You've got to say the N-word. You got to yell the top of your lungs in the middle of town square. You go put your hand on it, it starts vibrating, and you got to yell the N-word,
Starting point is 01:55:34 and you'll be able to loosen the sword from the stone. You got your pass. So let's move on. If I had to say something horrible to get Excalibur out of the stone, I would say something horrible. I don't go far. Of course.
Starting point is 01:55:45 Yeah, yeah, I mean, Excalibur is like, I mean, who's not going to say the N-word for Excalibular? You pretty much own heart. all of Europe at that moment. As soon as you can just go to the UK, but this is mine now. I have the sword. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:55:55 For my opinion, isn't Iskalliber not in the stone and it was given to you by the Lady of the Lake? What happened was I'm pretty sure the sword and the stone's a different sword. Arthur removed it from the stone, but he lost it. And then the lady, the lake would cover it. I don't know. I think they're two different swords actually. Are they all?
Starting point is 01:56:13 I'm pretty sure. We got to be confident about this. We don't want to spread this information. See, I would see, that's the thing. See, there's a thing. See, there's a difference. I wouldn't do that. So see right now what happens is this, right? Chris, Derek bought up something different from me, and now my brain's like, I don't know anymore.
Starting point is 01:56:28 And I'm going to vocally say that. How respectable was that? Look at a lady in the lake, and I'll look up what you call it. Yeah, if it's not, if it's not, because I think they're two different swords. But what's the next question? Yeah. Well, my rebuttal to that, Sweeney, is you're gay. I snort
Starting point is 01:56:49 I snort lines I snort lines out her ass It's cum I dip my fries in aoli It's cum Don't you understand I eat cum Rodin
Starting point is 01:57:02 He says Why did my dad die Thanks for your question Let's move on George RR Martin Rodin Yeah just real quick Before you move on
Starting point is 01:57:16 Um Yeah Excalibur is definitely from the lady the lake is not the stone sword that's a different sword so what was a sword in the stone? I think it's just I don't know if the sword has a name
Starting point is 01:57:27 um the store of the stone first appears in Robert de Boron's Merlin which pulls out the storm but it's not um where okay sorry I don't want to get into it now let's fucking continue the show
Starting point is 01:57:40 I'm gonna keep looking it up okay Excalibur I think was I think it was just in a store I don't think it was like a crazy thing She just bought it from a vendor I think Excalibur becomes Excalibur When King Arthur holds it I think is the idea, right?
Starting point is 01:57:56 Isn't it that it's like It's just a sword But in the hands of Arthur's Which is one rifle He has a sword in the stone Pull the sword from the stone So it's like somebody else It seems like somebody else
Starting point is 01:58:06 Made that as an alternative maybe Yeah it's like a royalty free Sword of the Storm But I think it's originally The Lady of Lake Aiky That's how Gerell get to the least So I think that's the original
Starting point is 01:58:20 But like, you know, some Brit I know we have like one British fan Because all of them left after we made fun of them Let us know what's the real Which one came first Damn, whichever British and homeless That's wild The uh
Starting point is 01:58:33 Because there's one that's French You gotta dodge a lot of knife attacks, man Ha ha ha Holy shit Knife attacks left and right from All you homeless Nivers All right let's uh
Starting point is 01:58:47 All right George R R. Martin wrote, and he says, Hey there, Sween, Derek, and a ssequious Hispanic goblin, who doesn't read my questions? Proved you're wrong just now. Didn't I? He says, what is a D-List character you think should be given a Sony Pictures movie?
Starting point is 01:59:03 My pick is Big Wheel. I think Big Wheel should absolutely get a fucking movie. That's so stupid. That'd be so good. You don't think a Big Wheel movie would be a good. Do you say it's a Sony D-List character? Well, the Big Wheel is a guy in a big-wheel. character that should be given a Sony Pictures movie.
Starting point is 01:59:20 I don't think the Sony Pictures movie matters. I think just D-Lis character is more interesting. Big wheel. D-List character is big wheel. Big wheel. Big wheel. Is that the dude in fucking in twisted metal?
Starting point is 01:59:38 No. No, but basically. He's a Marvel hero enemy. He's a Marvel villain. It's a guy who's a one of big wheel. He's a Spider-Man villain who is basically that character, though, 100%. Like, he's basically actually. Axel from Twisted Metal.
Starting point is 01:59:49 Okay. Okay. Um, yeah, because, because what is it? They got Morbius. They got Craven. They got fucking Madam Webb coming out. So I think, I think the best, I want a movie. I want honestly, not that he's a D-List, not that he's a D-List character necessarily, but I want a movie about Uncle Ben. That's it. Hell yes. And it's just called, and it's just called Uncle Ben. Uncle Ben.
Starting point is 02:00:17 You guys, you guys, want to go see Uncle Ben? Let's go see Uncle Ben tonight. I hear it's really good. And it's like a really Shakespearean story. It's like there's no action at all. Yeah. I wanted to be like, uh, Shawshank Redemption levels of good.
Starting point is 02:00:31 Like I wanted to be one of the best movies I've ever seen where it's like, I was not expected at all. Like, whoa. It's like everything everywhere all at once where you're just like, what the fuck? Why was Uncle Ben so heartwarming and challenging and thought-provoking? What the fuck? But it ends to say.
Starting point is 02:00:47 He gets shot. I cried seven times. He gets shot with the blunderbuss, dude. A fucking blunderbuss. Hello, hello. I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Smart Talks with IBM. I recently sat down with IBM's chairman and CEO, Arvin Krishna. And I asked him, how can companies use AI to its fullest potential to create smarter business?

If anybody is not using AI to make their developers who write software 30% more productive today, with the goal of being 70% more productive,
Starting point is 02:01:45 Yeah. Wow. So we are not asking our clients to be the first experiment on it. We say you can leverage what we did.

It was completely serious the entire time. And then at the very end, someone has a comic, like a fucking blunderbuss full of just CDs, just like jewel cases and CDs. That's fucking crazy. That's crazy. You shot, just have superheated sharp plastic. just digging into your fucking bones that's wild
Starting point is 02:03:46 oh pita I'm into it I'm into it I'm into it rocks I would love it I love that so much but yeah somebody wrote in somebody wrote in with that fucking ridiculous question again about like would you have
Starting point is 02:04:02 rather have sex with a guy or or have sex with a woman but get pegged we answered that last time so I'm going to delete it from the thread they did that on purpose No, you know what it is? I think they, no, they asked it, but I think by the time, like the episode
Starting point is 02:04:17 where we answered that didn't go up yet. Oh, right, right. I think he was just like, well, I want it. I want them to answer it. Don't worry, we got you. I really love that really important and intricate question to be answered. I need to know. I need to know.
Starting point is 02:04:31 Oh, my God. That's great. Judah Wong wrote in. Are Judah Wong? Oh, nice. Nice, nice one. Judah Wong. End word.
Starting point is 02:04:47 But it's like disguised as a name. That's nice. Oh, I like it. I like it. It's pretty good. He goes, what's up? Briss, Berwick and Bombweeney. Happy, and happy holidays, you filthy animals.
Starting point is 02:04:58 My question is this. What's the strangest thing that makes you instantly nauseous? For example, if I look at one singular maggot, I might puke. If it's more, I got to look away or leave the area. Stay back, y'all. One singular maggots are so disgusting to me It has to be in physically in the It has to be in my presence
Starting point is 02:05:20 Yeah But if I see it on TV It'll be like gross But it's different when I see one squirming in person I'm like gross as thing I know I've told the story about The mag It was
Starting point is 02:05:31 There's a lot of new listeners Long story short when I was a kid We didn't used to have the roller Trash cans They were just The trash cans that would you have to just drag them, right? So there's no wheels. For some reason, there were hundreds of maggots lined up like ants. For some reason, on trash night, I've never seen this before. That was the only time.
Starting point is 02:05:52 I've never seen it again before. And then so trash night got to drag the trash cans over them. And maggots pop when you step on them. It was the most disgusting. It literally scarred me. It's to the point where I, maggots make me nauseous now because of that night. This grossest fucking thing ever. For me, it's vaginas. I was going to say that, too. Like, a woman's pussy really makes me fucking... It makes me...
Starting point is 02:06:19 Like, really, like, looking at a vagina. Like, if I'm down there and I'm doing what I'm doing, if I look at it, if I look at it, if I look at it, you just study, you go... No. No, no, no, no. I don't want to lie. It's coming out the nose first.
Starting point is 02:06:33 That's how you know what happens. Let's come out the nose first. I get, like, I get like the animal zhao. Like the animal zhao. Fucking mustache a little bit. The Fumanchu And then I'm like That's crazy
Starting point is 02:06:45 Yeah no I can't My nose first What's a real one? What's a real one? Yeah I can't pretend I can't pretend Like that makes me sick It's where I'm
Starting point is 02:06:53 That's the only place I feel like home Yeah, it's pretty good But I think I think I don't know Honestly like mushroom As somebody who I've done mushrooms I think three times
Starting point is 02:07:02 And each time It's kind of a cheat Because it makes It literally makes you nauseous Literally it's like a point of it but it affects me way hard because even just the smell reminds me of the texture
Starting point is 02:07:17 of like when you lemon tech mushrooms and I just gag immediately another thing the big one though I think is and I hate that I even know what this is but the smell of roaches is fucking nauseating it's not just dirt it's nauseating and I know the smell because dude
Starting point is 02:07:37 we had to kill so fucking many when we lived in some of these apartments when Sweeney and I lived and I think two of the apartments two of the three apartments that we lived in had roaches and it was literally just not our fault it was literally just like
Starting point is 02:07:50 the fucking building sucked they had all these they come in specifically through oh my god dishwashers a lot apparently because it's like it's infrequently used there's like a lot of moisture there's food like particles and stuff
Starting point is 02:08:05 so like they nest in there and like every time we got an apartment I was like fuck it has a It had, I specifically remember, I think like, fuck. So, I asked, I remember when we lived together, I was like, can we please not use this? Can we please not use this? Because I don't want, I don't want to have a problem here. Oh, that's interesting.
Starting point is 02:08:21 And then it just, it happened anyway. But, yeah. God, damn. The smell of roaches is vile. Maybe. It's vile. So they have, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, because I'm, I'm, I've never, I mean, I've never, I mean, I've dealt with a. Okay.
Starting point is 02:08:39 I've dealt with the infestation before. I didn't smell anything. The only thing I smelled was the, the ray that I was using. So I didn't have the opportunity to smell them. They, I don't know, it's, it's like,
Starting point is 02:08:55 musty is the best way that I can describe it, but it's like, it's like, it's like a dirty smell, like dirt is. Yeah, I just, I've never even,
Starting point is 02:09:05 it's really difficult, it's really difficult to explain it, but like I know because, like, I specifically, I went, what, it made me so sick because, like, I went, because we killed a lot of them when we lived together. And then I remember going to a Walgreens or a CVS somewhere. And then I got a can of, it wasn't Arizona. I wasn't drinking tea.
Starting point is 02:09:25 What the fuck was it? It was like a Red Bull or something, right? And I got a can. And I cracked it open and I brought up to my mouth and I smelled it. Oh, no. And I was like, I'm never fucking coming here again. I'm never fucking setting. in this place again.
Starting point is 02:09:39 Because I know, it's just like, there's nothing else that smells like that, and I recognize it immediately. It's like, it's over. It makes me gag. It's gross. I don't think I could throw up from it, though.
Starting point is 02:09:48 But like, it's, it's heinous. Also, associated with a lot of hatred I have for that fucking animal. Useless. I could absorb the life of every roach.
Starting point is 02:09:58 Absorb it. It's like, take it out of them. Do you remember when I was freezing it? I was, like, freezing them to death with like the can of compressed air. I remember the,
Starting point is 02:10:07 we talked about this on the podcast, years ago about how fucking monstrous you were the ways you were killing them I hated them
Starting point is 02:10:16 like your deep hatred I remember yeah yeah dude I pay $3,000 a month for this fucking apartment you know I don't want to have to fight
Starting point is 02:10:27 fallout enemies every fucking day I don't want to have to like speaking to fallout the most aggravating hold on we can talk about fallout in a second
Starting point is 02:10:37 but the most aggravating thing about that to me was like turning on the kitchen light at night and just seeing things scatter. Just like not being able to not being able to feel comfortable walking into my kitchen barefoot was such a fucking prison. Like I hated that feeling.
Starting point is 02:10:51 But right. Anyway, yeah. What were you gonna say, Swinney? The dog eating a roach in fallout was hilarious. Like the trailer of the dog just attacking that roach and eating it and I'm like damn, bro. Good boy. The world's different there. I'm really curious about it. I don't know. I just want to kill a dog. I'll do some jog
Starting point is 02:11:09 A dog But I guess not Maybe Yeah I mean I don't know A roach is combative species really They just sort of Feet Well they're really strong and really fast
Starting point is 02:11:18 Yeah but they're not really like violent are they You know what I mean Like they don't I feel like they're not violent Because they're smaller than things I don't know Yeah but I can't imagine I can't imagine a roach fighting anything
Starting point is 02:11:29 Because I just don't know what they would even use They don't they don't have They don't have offensive capabilities at all I've never seen it But you know Mouths an insane physical strength Yeah but everything
Starting point is 02:11:40 Yeah but everything else has everything else Like a roach against a spider's not winning Because a spider's got very very usable legs And webs and venom So that's not happening An ant even I don't know Like what actually what is the combat gave
Starting point is 02:11:55 Because a roach is stronger than an ant Are roaches They're very fast Much much larger an ant But if an ant was the same size as a roach It would crush it No roaches are stronger than ants man What do you mean?
Starting point is 02:12:07 like pound for pound pound those are very strong they're just roaches that's not fucking true why would you even know that though I don't think that's true at all look it up you're already you're already there
Starting point is 02:12:22 I have no idea they might be stronger than spiders they might be stronger than spiders I could I could believe that maybe in so much we should have had Marvel's Roach Man is what you're saying but roaches are definitely would have been but roaches are so hated this back tech
Starting point is 02:12:37 the amazing brooch man. So this is a, apparently this is a very common conversation. It's a misconception. Roaches are strong technically because they can survive a lot, but they're not physically stronger than ants. Oh, they're durable.
Starting point is 02:12:52 Get the fuck out of here. That's not what strength means. Yeah, which is not, yeah. Yeah, an ant cannot lift 100 times. It's, or, uh, what is it? A roach can't lift 100 times its own weight, like an ant can. The ants are crazy.
Starting point is 02:13:07 Crazy though you see them just like have like a nut They're carrying like a nut and stuff Cockcola can withstand up to 900 times their body weight of compressive force. That's insane. That's hilarious. But that's withstanding that's not lifting. Withstand is not Yeah, yeah. Yeah, there's
Starting point is 02:13:25 incredibly durable. They're durable because they're very durable. Dude, it's like those videos of like Bees. Roses are strong in the spiders. Hello, hello. I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of Smart Talks with IBM. I recently spoke with IBM's new director of research, Jake M. Beta. We discussed his vision for the future of quantum computing. At IBM research, what we always do is answer what is the future of computing,
Starting point is 02:13:53 whether it's coming up with new algorithms, coming up with better AI, coming up with quantum, or coming up with just how do different accelerators go together. It's our DNA to answer the question of what is the future. Isn't it a perfect problem for IBM because you kind of need to have a, a legacy of building stuff. Yes. Building actual physical machines. Yeah, it's why I came to IBM.
Starting point is 02:14:17 I wanted the experience, the culture of building hard things that others have not done before. Where do you imagine we are in the timeline of this technology? There will come a point when it will mature.
Starting point is 02:14:34 My cell phone is a mature technology at this point. How far are we from that point with quantum. By 2029, we'll build the first fault-tolerant quantum computer. That is one that can run a very, very large, large problem. To learn how IBM is building the future of computing, visit IBM.com slash quantum. All right, quick quiz for the hiring managers out there.

Starting point is 02:16:09 On average, I doubt a hunchman's is going to lose to a fucking roach. The most broken spiders, no. Roach blood. Because the most terrifying spiders can put humans to sleep
Starting point is 02:16:21 and eat their faces. You know, like, and we're way bigger than them. Dude, yeah, the fucking camel spider, right?
Starting point is 02:16:27 That's the camel spider that like puts you to sleep and like digs into your face and scoops you up. They're so fucking, that's heinous. They look, they look disgusting,
Starting point is 02:16:35 too. If you Google a camel spider. Peter isn't one of, of those. I haven't seen one in a long time, but Oh, what a fucking heinous. I would, dude, the fact that this is real in Australia is, is heinous. Why the fuck would I ever go to Australia
Starting point is 02:16:50 knowing that these things are real? I want to go to Australia. Have you seen a camel spider, Derek? I just don't want to go where that stuff is. You know, I just want to be in, like, the city. Derek, give me a favor. Look up a camel spider right now. I've seen it right now. Camel Spider versus Scorpion
Starting point is 02:17:09 Dude That's fucking I Who man No way No fucking way in hell man Yeah Staying the fuck out of that entire continent
Starting point is 02:17:17 But uh Look I just Yeah I just don't want to be I just want to be in the main cities Where they killed all these things essentially Yeah I don't want to share my living space
Starting point is 02:17:30 So like what does that mean Are they attractive because like Why are they Do you think the lethality of Australia is the reason Australia woman are so pretty. I think what happens, honestly, my genuine opinion on this is that I think
Starting point is 02:17:44 I think the ugly ones, the ugly Australians get so deeply neglected because it's such a mean place. Everyone's so mean to each other that they don't get educated at the same time. They don't get educated in the same places. And because they're not educated, they wander into places where they really shouldn't be.
Starting point is 02:18:02 And then they end up food for the fucking animals that are over there. I assume that that's the case Because I've just straight up never seen I've just I've just never seen I'm sure I'm sure I could if I could look But I've never seen an ugly Australian woman I've just not seen it
Starting point is 02:18:20 Just never I've seen them God bless But I also I'm They're not long for the earth I'll tell you that much They're gonna wander into a fucking camel spider den soon Yeah
Starting point is 02:18:33 I like your theory because that makes sense because I know like say in the Scandinavians they did a lot of ethnic cleansing or what's the word euthanizing is the word
Starting point is 02:18:42 that I'm looking for so they they bred a lot of tall beautiful people um why does you think I don't like I don't like the word euthanizing
Starting point is 02:18:50 because it sounds like it sounds like it would do the opposite it sounds stupid it sounds totally misleading with how language works I don't like how that word sounds
Starting point is 02:19:01 yeah I would pick a different word I would pick a different word It's like, you could almost hear, you, you could almost imagine like a drink, like, an, like, or like a vitamin being like, this, this euthanizes the soul, you know, like, yeah. When I was young, I was like, youth in Asia. Like, it sounds like kids in Asia. I was like, youth in Asia. I was like, the youth in Asia.
Starting point is 02:19:24 Oh my God. That's what it sounded like to me, man. I was like, but yeah, but, but, but, but, so I had this conversation. started, I totally forgot. Fallout. There's a trailer for the new fallout show. That looks pretty cool. I'm kind of fascinated by it.
Starting point is 02:19:46 I think it might do really well. What? I forgot that you were being a menace on Twitter. I wasn't being a menace at all. Bullshit. I was not being a menace. It just, no, I wasn't. The trailer, no, dude, I'm sorry, man.
Starting point is 02:20:03 The effects on that armor looks bad, like it does. Like, I don't think it's a big deal or anything. No, it does it. All right, all right. It looks like, I don't know what... It does. It looks like metal in a 2009 years of war cutscene. It does.
Starting point is 02:20:19 It looks great for that specifically. It, dude, look at it. It totally does not look like that, man. Did people just not play Unreal Engine three games? Why are you the one on the outside of this? I don't know. I really, I honestly, I'm not even joking when I say I really can't fathom how people don't see it. I feel like I'm, I feel like there's a bear in the room and no one's acknowledging it.
Starting point is 02:20:46 It's like, hey, do you guys see that bear? And everybody's like, what do you mean? I'm like, bro, there's a bear. There's a problem that means you're insane. Maybe. I don't know. But I can recognize good and bad CG. I think people are like conflating certain things where they're like, what do you mean?
Starting point is 02:21:02 It's good for. TV and I'm like well yeah it's good for TV it doesn't make it's that it doesn't mean it's amazing and that's fine it doesn't look amazing and that's fine that's fine that doesn't have always been one of the easiest things the CG where it looks realistic that's what confuses me that's what confuses me that's what confuses me about it is that it looks fake but it's the easiest thing I think it doesn't though that's the thing I don't like I don't understand what you're looking at for it it it you know what it reminds me of it's kind of like when something is
Starting point is 02:21:30 the graphics are pretty, they're up to par, but since it's a human face that still looks a little off or something, versus if you look at the same thing, that's like an alien. Because like, I don't know, I'm just not like, I'm, uh-huh, go ahead. Because it cuts, because it cuts
Starting point is 02:21:46 from different shots of real people using real materials to that shot of them walking. And it, it looks like it cuts to a video game to me. Like straight up, maybe it's YouTube compression, Maybe, maybe, you know what I think it is, honestly? Maybe. It might not even necessarily be that it's CG, but something is fucking off about it.
Starting point is 02:22:07 And I think what it is is, I think they used real suits, but the suits that they used were made of foam. Hello, hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Smart Talks with IBM. I recently sat down with IBM's chairman and CEO, Arvin Krishna. And I asked him, how can companies use? use AI to its fullest potential to create smarter business. My one advice to them, pick areas you can scale. Don't pick the shiny little toys on the side. For example.
Starting point is 02:22:41 If anybody has more than 10% of what they had for customer service 10 years ago, they're already five years behind it. If anybody is not using AI to make their developers, who write software 30% more productive today with the goal of being 70% more productive. Yeah. Wow. So we are not asking our clients to be the first experiment on it.
Starting point is 02:23:09 We say, you can leverage what we did. We're happy to bring out all our learnings, including what needs to change in the process, because the biggest change is not technology, is getting people to accept that there's a different way to do things.

And it's like a foam prop so like the weight is kind of fucky and then light reflects off it in a way that metal kind of I don't, there's something weird about it that looks a little bit off. It's not a big deal. I think the show's probably going to be really awesome. I'm actually super stoked about it and most of it looked pretty cool. Even the bad effects which like I consider to be like yeah you know whatever. It's it's TV so like whatever. I don't think it's what is it on the other show? They're like let's scale it back a little bit.
Starting point is 02:25:03 Yeah, yeah. I don't know. Rings of power. Rings of power. Yeah, fallout. It's been a billy on that shit, dude. Let me look at the Faw TV show. People to hate it, dude.
Starting point is 02:25:12 Dude, that's, that's crazy. People hate, I don't, I watch Ring of Power. It wasn't as bad. I don't know, man. Yeah. A lot of people that as good. Yeah, that's a thing. You don't see this?
Starting point is 02:25:23 What happened? I'm, I just don't know how you do. I feel crazy. That looks, that's a video game, dude. I mean, it's, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel insane. It doesn't look as bad as you're making it sound. It looks...
Starting point is 02:25:38 You're not hearing me. I'm not saying... I'm not saying it looks like a fucking Tetris piece. I'm just saying it doesn't look convincingly like super real. Which is fine, but that's true. It's also true that it doesn't look amazingly real.
Starting point is 02:25:53 And people are like, it looks great. What do you mean? I'm like, no, guys, you're misunderstanding. It can look... It can look middle of the road and still look. be a good fucking show. It's not like a qualitative statement
Starting point is 02:26:07 about the show. Spider-Man and Spider-Man 3 are some of my favorite moves ever. The CG and those movies are pretty fucking bad. You know? Even by that point, even by those standards back then, because back then you had fucking, what is it, Pirates of the Caribbean with that uncharacteristically amazing-looking fucking Davy Jones.
Starting point is 02:26:23 So, I don't know. People got weird about it because I was just saying that, look, the effects look mid, but it looks kind of interesting. I'm curious where it goes. And everybody was like, what the fuck are you talking about? It just, yeah, because I You mean what am I talking about? Well, but that's just kind of like one of those things where it's like, we just, it's just not on that. We just don't see it in that level.
Starting point is 02:26:42 Like, and I will say it's fine to not care about it. It probably is a lighting issue. It's not even know how to care. It's just that we did no, like, I didn't see anybody else bring that up. I was looking through like comments of other people and I was like, I didn't see anybody bring this shit up. I was, yeah, I would, dude, I was, I was surprised to see no one brought that up. That's what I was saying. I don't know.
Starting point is 02:27:02 So like, I don't know. Maybe I could be wrong. I'm like whatever, but like I also. It could be a lighting. Like what if it like say in a different lighting maybe it would be like this is what I want. And then maybe people would realize like, I see the difference. Well, my immediate assumption, even when I tweeted it out was like, oh, well, this is a trailer for a show that's not out till April. This is probably like early, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 02:27:22 Like how some movies have early CG or whatever in trailers and it doesn't look as good. That was my assumption anyway. So like, I mean, whatever, whatever. I think it's cool. I think it's cool. Like, I'm, I love Fallout. I think the vibe of Fallout is really kind of perfect for a TV show. Totally.
Starting point is 02:27:39 Totally. Totally. I'm really curious what they're going to do with it. Is that right-headed bitch's name again? Emma Stone? Hope she gets naked. That's all I know. Is she in it?
Starting point is 02:27:52 Isn't Emma Stone in it? Or am I misremembering. Walton Goggins is in it. Did I dream Emma Stone in it? I swear she's in it. Yeah, I think so. I don't think she's in it. Wait.
Starting point is 02:28:02 No way. Yeah, yeah, no. There's no Oh my God, are you full, wait, hold on, hold on, wait, I must have saw someone
Starting point is 02:28:09 and assumed it was Emma Stone. Bro's, yo, how, how, all right, I'm not gonna say anything. So was I pink?
Starting point is 02:28:16 But you watch the trailer and superimposed Emma Stone onto it, but I'm the person who, oh, yeah, CJ looks great. Hold on a second.
Starting point is 02:28:29 Wait, wait, who's the, wait, who's the, Yeah, okay. Derek, I think you're off, but I think you're just... Ella Pernell is her name, apparently, from yellow jackets.
Starting point is 02:28:39 So that's what... So I was definitely just like not really paying attention. No. But I did look, I looked at the scene. When you said that, I paid attention to that. I know, I know. And that's probably... I'm busting your balls.
Starting point is 02:28:52 The only thing that I did see that people complained about, and it's just a, who cares complaint is that the ghouls are getting less googly, I guess. But that's been a trend. since forever. Like if you go back to the original world. Go back to the original fallouts. They looked horrific.
Starting point is 02:29:09 But also that would have been like say if you try to do that level of it in Fallout 3 when it became like a 3D game, that would have been like we don't need to spend that much time on these fucking ghouls and then they scaled it back even in four where they weren't as fucked up.
Starting point is 02:29:24 Yeah. It didn't bother me. It didn't bother me. Yeah. I just saw some people complain about that. People were upset that it, it, it's like man this isn't even because like they're like this isn't the original fallout
Starting point is 02:29:34 this is modeled after the Bethesda games I'm like yeah yeah the popular ones I mean yeah the ones when people started playing yeah I get what they're saying in some way where it's like it's definitely like fallout four and 76 is definitely more colorful than three in New Vegas so I kind of I get it
Starting point is 02:29:51 from that perspective where but like I don't know man like it's fallout is so weird that like I'm just curious to see how it goes and I think I don't know man I think of all the shows, like movie-based shows that have come out, I feel like most interested in this one just because I really have no idea. Like, The Last of Us was like obviously just going to be the Last of Us.
Starting point is 02:30:11 Halo had no chance of being good. So I don't know. I'm kind of pumped on this. What did you think of the new trailer? I mean, visually, visually, I think it looks great. I knew, I knew, no, not necessarily. No, I guess not. I knew that it was happening.
Starting point is 02:30:33 I just didn't know that, like, when they would do it. That says a lot to me. It says that because I feel like what's going to happen is what happens a lot of times. There was so many people watching it because they wanted to see how it was going to be. And I feel like this second season, the number is going to absolutely tank. Because people kind of already got. Yeah, because they already got their fix. I didn't, I forgot that I didn't finish it.
Starting point is 02:30:57 I heard about the other stuff that happened. I was maybe, I think I got like four episodes in or something like that, but I heard everybody talking about the sex scene and all this stuff. And I'm like, yeah. Yeah. It's bad, man. It's not good. But that's another, that's a, that's an example, right? Where it's like, I see that I watch that trailer and I'm like, man, this is going to suck so bad.
Starting point is 02:31:19 But the armor, because it's real, like, and it's like a practical effect. It was like, that looks not bad. There's some scenes in it that are obviously CG that look kind of like, wow, whatever. it's TVCG. Same thing as Fallout where it's like this doesn't look amazing but like whatever
Starting point is 02:31:32 but yeah I don't know that show I have no faith in that show I'm working on a video right now lambasting the entire first season going through it in like immense detail and it's the script is like 20 something pages long and normally a script of mine is like
Starting point is 02:31:46 five max so it's it's long but long video people like long videos now so they that is it and I mean it does
Starting point is 02:31:56 and it does it increases your views exponentially not only because of watch time, but people come back to your video multiple times to finish it. A lot of times people don't sit through it all the way, so then they'll give you like five times of views just by per person. Yeah, I don't think I'm gonna do like...
Starting point is 02:32:13 It's smart. Yeah, I don't know if it'll be like three and a half hours, but it'll be longer than normal for sure. I was thinking like an hour and a half. Yeah, maybe... Not even that long? I don't know. Well, it's about 25...
Starting point is 02:32:25 It's about 25 pages. My videos are normally around. four to five and my videos are normally like 10 to 20 minutes. So I feel like maybe the math on that is, what's the math on that? I'm really bad at math. I couldn't do it. I mean,
Starting point is 02:32:40 I could do it, but. They get closer to your mic. And time into it is insane. Like that much energy into the hate. Because I can't hate for long. I hate for moments and then it dissipates and it turns to apathy for quickly for me. Hello, hello. I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of Smart Talks with IBM.

Starting point is 02:35:45 Because there's a lot There's so much that I'll miss Because I watch these things so passively So it is fun to see stuff like this Where they come through it And someone who actually knows all the lore and everything about this shit that I don't know. So it is fascinating to watch stuff like that.
Starting point is 02:36:00 So I appreciate the people that do it. Yeah. It's just fascinating. I don't think it's more of a hate boner. It's just your itch. Like I said, I love watching anyone who's played the Mass Effect franchise or anything like that. Well, I would say the franchise because you have to play three. The videos on the indoctrination theory, the ending, there's a thing, a whole thing about that.
Starting point is 02:36:25 It is so fascinating. It is one of the most fascinating things, like, watching it as far as video games go. And so I'm like, those are those autistic people that really pay attention to shit that I would never really get to, you know? So it's pretty cool. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think, I mean, you got to find those things that only you will do, you know?
Starting point is 02:36:46 Like, who the fuck was going to make a three-hour plagiarism video, but this guy, you know, probably nobody else. Right. Who the fuck is going to make a... I did the math, by the way. It's about 90 to 100 minutes. Who is going to do a 90 minute video about season one of the HALA TV show, if not me? Like, no one. Like, even the Halo people have already said what they had to say about it back when it was new.
Starting point is 02:37:09 I've been writing this thing for like a year. And I keep adding shit to it. And I keep changing things around. But now that the season two is like officially like coming out, I have a deadline now that I can be like, okay. February 2nd, I'm going to put this video out the day before or like the day of or something probably the day of I think would be a good day

I recently spoke with IBM's new director of research. Jake Embatta, we discussed his vision for the future of quantum computing.

Starting point is 02:47:12 It's our DNA to answer the question of what is the future. Isn't it a perfect problem for IBM because you kind of need to have a legacy of building stuff? Yes. building actual physical machines. Yeah, it's why I came to IBM. I wanted the experience, the culture of building hard things that others have not done before. Where do you imagine we are in the timeline of this technology? There will come a point when it will mature.
Starting point is 02:47:43 Right? My cell phone is a mature technology at this point. How far are we from that point with Conton? By 2029, we'll build the first fault-tolerant quantum computer.
