The Kill Power Hour #063 - Tyler's First List
31 Plays1 year ago
Welcome to Season 3 of the Kill Power Hour: "Here Is A List", where this season we'll be threading the needle between old-man-rants and talking about the issues and stories that matter to no one but ourselves! Tyler is up with his first list which includes discussion about how much sleep is actually necessary, how hard it is to have a satisfying dining experience these days, and how life isn't actually that terrible, even though the Internet would like you to think otherwise. Tyler touches on a few other topics in his list while Eric and Tucker do their best to make sense of these sleep-deprived thoughts and keep this podcast on the rails. Just kidding--the train has exploded and we're fully off the rails for this season--enjoy!

Introduction to 'Power Hour'
00:00:06
Speaker
power hour A podcast where three friends spend the better part of an hour arguing and explaining why sleeping is bad and smoking is good. Each week we go through a list and this week we'll be discussing Tyler's rants and
Meet the Hosts: Eric and Tucker

Tyler's Lifestyle Rants
00:00:54
Speaker
realistic goal. So this season we are doing lists. Yeah. Like you haven't seen anybody for a while and you're like fucking raging. Like, have you heard about this shit?
00:01:03
Speaker
um Yeah. yeah If you're autistic and you don't know how to make conversation and you show up to a friend hang with a list. Oh, yeah. This podcast is for you. These are the topics we are going to discuss together.
00:01:17
Speaker
ah so Tyler, you sent us a list. um ah Do you just want to fucking plow into it? Sort of, yeah. I mean, there's a you know it's a pretty tough to come up to a ah list if you're thinking about it. It took me a little while, but I think this is this is all I got right now. um It's a great list.
00:01:37
Speaker
Best list.
The Sleep Struggle
00:01:38
Speaker
I have this terrible thing in my life where I progressively sleep less throughout the year. you know I started going to bed like – It's your reset here at the end of every year and it starts over you somehow. And i don't quite know what it is. Normally it ends up with like sickness or something. And that's how i reset. But no, like I, you know, my, you say my normal bedtime is like 12 or one.
00:01:59
Speaker
I just keep pushing it further back. And it gets to the point where it's like three 34 o'clock in the morning. Oh God. And it's like fucking brutal, man. But then, then it gets not, it's like, you doing this on a school night?
00:02:12
Speaker
Every night. Yeah, every night. Jesus Christ. I'm busy. Fuck you guys. Wake up i i had i I championed that sort of activity, that energy, 100%, like would talk about it in like a boastful way.
Parenting and Sleep
00:02:30
Speaker
in my late 20s. Yeah, I'll sleep when I'm dead. Yes, that exact same thing. I even have it written down in the Skateboard Mag, the only time I ever got in a skateboard magazine. But like the second, the millisecond my son came out of my partner's vagina, and I was instantly tired and have been more and more tired from that. That's not how it happened. No, it definitely that's how it happened.
00:02:53
Speaker
Like the first 15 months of his existence, made me existentially exhausted for the rest of my life. So I can't, I can't exist anymore. yes i don't I can't talk myself into it.
00:03:06
Speaker
Oh. I'm like like literally the decision of like, I could go lay down.
00:03:14
Speaker
See, how most people approach it is they actually do things during the day, and then they're tired, so they fall asleep. I'm busy all damn day, and I fucking pull up. Oh, I'm busy. I'm busy.
00:03:27
Speaker
I'm just filming through model train catalogs. Oh, my God. Jesus Christ. No, man, sleep. but it's so It's hard to turn it off, too. It makes you more effective, though, as an awake person. This is a good mental trick that I learned.
Sleep Perception Hack
00:03:42
Speaker
Okay, so say that I've got four hours sleep, right? No one's taking sleep fucking tips from a guy who goes to bed at four in the morning. Sleep hacks. Here, he's got a TikTok that's sleep hacks. No, this is a sleep hack, right?
00:03:55
Speaker
This is all perception. I'm pretty sure that this that sleep is perception, right? Sleep isn't real. Just like birds. Birds aren't real. No. so Okay, so sleep here. Okay, so check this out. Have you ever remembered being asleep?
00:04:08
Speaker
Wow. Well, I actually do think that lack of sleep ah prevents you from remembering things. Like, I think this is real because my memory's not as great. But everything else, I'm doing really well. No, you're just so sleep deprived.
00:04:23
Speaker
You're looking to get your life through foggy. This is how I like psych myself out into a being like, this amount of sleep is is okay and healthy. I'm thinking to myself, you know, i got four hours of sleep and you're like, oh, that's not much sleep.
00:04:35
Speaker
But then you think about it. Just imagine... being awake, laying in bed for four hours. You can't go to sleep. That's a lot of time.
00:04:46
Speaker
You're just sitting there thinking about stuff for four hours. That's a huge amount of time. You're watching the clock for four hours. Dude, you sound psychotic like a person who hasn't slept in a few years. Seriously.
00:04:58
Speaker
So many things. Imagine if you're awake thinking about how you could be sleeping, but you're like, fuck it. I'm awake. Of course, I would do some research about this because i knew you guys were terrible and believe all these sleep lies.
Ideal Sleep Debate
00:05:11
Speaker
sleep lies the ah Wait, are you confusing sleeping is overrated with your last thing on the list? Crazy stories that people believe that we should be more skeptical of.
00:05:22
Speaker
Sorry. you do boiler wire you You need less sleep as you get older. I know that. Like seniors, they might sleep five or six hours a night. That's pretty normal.
00:05:33
Speaker
But I think for us in our fucking prime, we should be getting somewhere between six to eight hours of sleep a night, right? Yeah. Yeah. That's what I think. Have you read something that contradicts that, Tyler? Seven to eight, technically, but yeah. Seven to eight? Okay.
00:05:46
Speaker
Yeah, I think that's pretty similar to reality. um like If you choose that. If you choose that to be your reality. If you choose subscribe that news. No, i I mean, I feel like it's sleeping is also ah like addictive almost where people like like just breathe it. No, I mean, yeah I think we everybody could relate with this. Like over the holidays where you don't have to like work a whole lot and then you have to go back to work and you're like, oh, fuck, this is – I I was sitting on gotta habits. We should bring in our friend Tom, who's actually a sleep doctor and who has taught me a number of great tricks about sleep.
00:06:23
Speaker
Oh, yeah. First one is- Is he about the sitting in bed thinking about- No. No, actually what he says is you should only use your bed for sleeping. like Yeah. Like, do not go to your bed unless you're tired.
00:06:34
Speaker
Yeah, but yeah. Like, because if you are laying in your bed not sleeping, your body's associating the bed with that kind of activity. And so it's it's creating a bad habit, essentially.
00:06:46
Speaker
But I don't know. i Have you guys ever slept too much? Yeah, absolutely. like terrible That sucks worse. like i think I actually hate oversleeping more than undersleeping because I feel like i've lost part of the day.
00:07:02
Speaker
Dude, it's just your definition of what's oversleeping. Some people might say three hours. Some people might say four hours total. you know Those might be... yeah I will say. I realize how insane this is. And that's why we're going to move on to our next topic. Well, no, I did. I just want to say I did a dry January. This is my LaCroix that I'm drinking. Oh, cute. And that has done wonders for my sleep.
00:07:27
Speaker
Oh, for sure. Did you do the ice bucket challenge too? I did this Tide Pie challenge where I gave them to your kids. Holy fuck. Dude, yeah. it A couple, about three or four years ago, I stopped being able to drink like after six or six or seven and expecting anything but like failure at night.
00:07:46
Speaker
Like yeah hot kidneys, mind racing, like too much energy while my body was. Hot kidneys? Well, no, mean like your body's. What? Your body's like processing all those sugars. That's Tucker's four hours a night.
00:08:00
Speaker
Yeah. My fucking hot kidneys, dude. Those are stories you shouldn't believe. You know, all right Grandpa had the old hot kidneys. He couldn't bring it after six o'clock.
00:08:11
Speaker
All right, number two on your list. Let's do your next health tip, Dr. Tyler.
Nostalgia for Smoking
00:08:14
Speaker
My next topic let's bring back cigarettes. Maybe I should have put these off a little bit. Specifically smoking in bad water. Yeah, well, you're not sleeping.
00:08:23
Speaker
So as a non-smoker, Tyler, tell me more. yeah so And you're the non-smokers. Fuck I don't smoke cigarettes. um yeah in it And I do, if I'm around a lot of smoke, if i if I'm around a lot of like...
00:08:39
Speaker
secondhand smoke i like literally get a sinus infection yeah but on the other side of it man concerts what oh yeah it was like bars gross whoa whoa whoa whoa yeah i'm not saying okay finish your thought everybody should start smoking and i'm not saying that that i want to have smoking in restaurants but right now especially in minnesota yeah everywhere i go fucking reeks of fucking weed And whenever I see someone smoking a cigarette, I hear all these fucking comments about like, it's so fucking weird, it smells so fucking bad. i mean, no fucking weed smells bad, man. I don't wanna think weed smells bad?
00:09:18
Speaker
Weed smells fucking terrible. like Oh, wow. I don't wanna smell like other people's fucking weed. But you would smell like other people's cigarettes? I think there is a negative situation. Rank them. fight rank em Rank these four smells.
00:09:32
Speaker
Farts, weed, cigarettes, strawberry vapes. oh Cigarettes at the top of the list. I would rather smell like cigarettes than any of those.
00:09:44
Speaker
Especially fucking farts. I don't know that I want to smell like farts, but definitely weed at the top. We could go back into fucking ah open this up a little further. Yeah, vaping.
00:09:55
Speaker
How many times you walk through someone's cloud of fucking vape? Strawberry vape. And I'm not saying it doesn't smell terrible, but it's like. I can go for the grape ones. your clouds.
00:10:08
Speaker
I love like a grape ape sort of like and grape soda smell. But you know that can't be good for you. Oh, no. No, I mean like vaping is fucking terrible. You are like vaporizing your lungs. You're like liquefying them.
00:10:20
Speaker
It can't be any worse than a fucking sitting in a sauna, man. ah so
00:10:26
Speaker
Sorry. Are you serious? How is it not working? It's so great. I love this. Speculation and the worst health tips. ah This podcast, we've been doing 60 episodes totally fine. As soon as this one gets published, we're getting taken down.
00:10:40
Speaker
ah but yeah I mean, we're not claiming. Pretty sure. I mean, well, one of you just said vaping liquefies your arms. And it's totally normal to sleep three hours a night.
00:10:56
Speaker
Oh my I'm just saying- I'm just Ronald Rogan here, Yeah. Telling people how it Out of all the things in our lives that people do that are fucking terrible, um especially now where a lot of American society is very privileged and we have the access accessibility to healthy things and making healthy choices, that every once in a while you smoke a cigarette.
00:11:21
Speaker
in it If it calms you down or you fucking enjoy it, then fucking hurry for the world, man. It is fun watching people like at parties who you wouldn't normally associate as a smoker, but they're kind like two or three beers in and they bum a cigarette from someone.
00:11:37
Speaker
And you just look at their face as they like take that drag and they're like, oh man, like you. but the Oh, it's worse though when you see someone sucking secretly on a USB drive.
00:11:49
Speaker
like What are they doing? Are they plugging into the Matrix? I do not see that enjoyment. that I mean, EC's right. like People enjoy it. i mean, obviously, you do everything in excess, then it's not good.
Vaping and Home Environments
00:12:03
Speaker
But I think there's going to be some 16-year-old right now, and they're going to be they're vaping already, and they're going to continue vaping until they're 60, and they live in the same house, and their ceiling is going to be stained purple. Purple. Ew.
00:12:18
Speaker
Everything in their house is coated in synthetic grape. Oh my gosh. Yeah. There's nothing sexy about a vape. No, I hate cigarettes, but yeah, when you're talking about smoking things, probably say for a paper joint, it's probably one of the cooler things of smoke. Dude, e-cigarettes also contain, what this stuff? Aquiline, a herbicide primarily used to kill weeds.
00:12:41
Speaker
I mean, good fucking Everything has everything in it. Yeah, it's like, it's, Your water's got herbicide. No, man, got sick-ass filtration system. And, like, you drive a fucking car and, like, you you're in a place with a forklift and, like, you're around fucking chemicals all day long. Yeah, you inhale, like, three forklifts a day.
00:13:02
Speaker
You know, there was a story on the fucking news the other, i mean, this is like two or three years ago, about how the ink on printer receipts had like fucking BPA in it or something. I'm like, fuck you, stop rubbing your receipts.
00:13:16
Speaker
like On your forehead. It's not dick beginning cream. I'm not that kind of guy
BPA Overreactions
00:13:21
Speaker
that's like, hey, let's not try to make things better. Yeah. Let's, if BPA is as bad as people say it is, and I'm not doubting it, then sure, let's try to make better decisions to do things in an incremental way that makes sense.
00:13:36
Speaker
Yeah. But when people freak out about their fucking... Ink on your receipts. You're losing your goddamn mind, people. go smoke a fucking cigarette. yeah Sleep less.
00:13:46
Speaker
And you might get some fucking purpose in your life. Maybe put more arsenic in that printer cartridge because it's running low. Yeah, man. Also- Hey, Jared, more arsenic.
00:13:58
Speaker
These are some of the- Remember like opening up books and how good they smelled? That smell is nothing healthy for you. but those the best things in my life. You just haven't opened a book in 20 years. Yeah. Well, there you go. I perfectly good lungs. You guys remember? That was the EC joke.
00:14:13
Speaker
that was That was a good one. ah My addictive smell is a fresh can of tennis balls, I will say. like I know that is pure fucking, it's probably just aerosol formaldehyde, but it smells so good. Are we going there?
00:14:28
Speaker
Okay, so we're not. Dude, my. I'm going to quit this podcast right now. Yeah, I just put my face in my child's butt. Ha, ha, ha, ha. ah No, it's it's Pine Saw.
00:14:40
Speaker
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. You're going to see new shoes. New shoes are pretty fucking amazing, but I don't get them as much as I once did. ah New shoes, new car Can drink Pine Saw?
00:14:53
Speaker
Yeah, if you want to die. okay. Do you want to die? Okay, number three. Look at hot cup of Pine Saw before I go to sleep for three hours. think I'd do it on the rocks. I don't think I'd heat it up.
00:15:05
Speaker
If you're trying to fall asleep. My next thing on the list. um BMs. Nothing about getting the most from your body like my previous two topics. ah it's Abruptly changing topics. yeah Business management styles.
00:15:21
Speaker
What's your, well, first of all, I think we've all been in a position to manage people, except for maybe EC. He's had a hard enough time to do it for himself. But like, what what do you try to do for other people and what has been done to you?
00:15:38
Speaker
Wait, show us on the dull where you've been managed. Yes. Yes. i mean, we've all had like the fucking worst managers. We've had people. Oh, yeah. We changed the way that we do business in our own minds. Like what what are like the great lessons you've learned about.
00:15:57
Speaker
Oh, like for me, for me, though I've had a couple so situations where I've been like someone's office or someone's mentioned something to me. And I can like vividly remember these words and have come from these people. A lot of times they're like, yeah you need to learn how to, you need to learn when to stop talking.
00:16:14
Speaker
Oh, to you? They've said this to Yes. Yes. Oh, wow. And... Because i get like you know I get amped up about something and i I work really well with people that can just openly discuss things.
00:16:26
Speaker
But there's a lot of people that can't deal with that. Like what you say is like is a representation of how you think or something. Not necessarily just blurting out ideas and like, oh, let's just kind of brainstorm this shit. No, like sometimes...
00:16:40
Speaker
what you say is the honest truth and you know, that's what you believe and it cannot be corrected. And if you say something dumb, then you are dumb and it's just very judgmental or whatever. But I learned from a lot of ah sometimes older management that you need to ah sometimes close your mouth and just let everyone say their shit and then observe it and then deal with it maybe at a later date.
00:17:06
Speaker
This is said after just talking to us straight for three minutes. Yes, yes, sorry. I thought this was maybe more of like a think before you speak situation. Yeah, no and this is it could go up there in the tube. Okay.
00:17:18
Speaker
I think it's also when you're quiet ah you're not saying people will get uncomfortable and so they'll start talking. And so if they're not telling you what they want right away, you just kind of need to shut up and they will fill the air essentially.
00:17:33
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, you're exactly right about that. If you, if there's silence, somebody that's nervous is going to start seeing something. I killed him. Yeah. What are there? i don't know anything. Are there names for business management styles? So like wild style and missionary or like.
00:17:53
Speaker
Wow. Reverse cowgirl.
00:17:59
Speaker
Reverse cowboy. These are all ways to get fired. Yeah. Reverse cowboy. Well, i mean, business management styles, it's like none of us have an MBA, you know, so we're not.
00:18:11
Speaker
I think Tyler's talking more specifically to management styles. so it's but and Correct me if I'm wrong, Tyler, but maybe more on the personnel side yeah than it is on the like how we're going to like run this business and create it.
00:18:25
Speaker
I don't manage the people around me. I've never had a bad manager, I don't think. I've also not had that many managers. Do you remember, ah this is for Tucker because we worked at National Camera to together. Remember Mark? Mark.
00:18:37
Speaker
He was a great manager. Yeah. He was just a cool dude. We were punk ass kids fucking around so much. And he tolerated us very well. and But he I felt like he knew how to draw a line too. Like he wasn't someone to be walked over either. Yeah. I respected him. so i He was very stern. Whatever his style was doing was perfect. Do you do you think you use...
00:18:57
Speaker
that in dealing with the people that you have to manage? Do you, I mean, do you think that that changed the way you thought? When did you think that he did a good job being a manager?
00:19:08
Speaker
Like, at what point were you like, oh shit, we were a bunch of assholes and that mark guy was dealt with us really well. Yeah, like a couple hours ago. Yeah.
00:19:20
Speaker
You're really self-reflective. Yeah. Well, I just, again, I'm not, I haven't been in that employee manager situation as often as an adult. You teach and you have to manage.
00:19:32
Speaker
I have to manage students, but that's also a very different relationship than a worker or because technically they're paying you to do this. So it's there's a weird blur of- Yeah, they're paying you to be their boss? Sage and customer service.
00:19:45
Speaker
yeah I would never say that I managed students, but I have like created a classroom environment that I thought would be nourishing for learning, if that says anything.
00:19:56
Speaker
That's a back-ass word way of saying that you manage- Lots of beanbags. Yeah. I mean, as an instructor myself and you, you do manage, you, you are managing people and and yes, they're paying you, but you are controlling the classroom in a lot of different ways, even though you might not necessarily be physically or, or actively.
00:20:16
Speaker
I physically manage my students. Oh yeah.
00:20:21
Speaker
I've been managing people for 23 years now. And I think I didn't really like really own that. experience or that title, like truly be like, Hey, you know, part of being someone's manager is like helping them do their job and helping
Effective Management Insights
00:20:39
Speaker
them get better. And like actually mentoring them instead of just being like responsible for them. Like someone that says, do this, don't do that.
00:20:47
Speaker
I don't think I really thought about that until maybe only like halfway through or a little, little less than halfway through. And I would say the one takeaway after that finally that moment in my head like occurring where I'm like, oh, you have you owe these people more is like when you hire someone to do a job, it's your job to get the fuck out of the way and let them do it.
00:21:13
Speaker
Basically like every person you hire for something, even if they're not – whatever, a doctor, like they're the expert, right? yeah They're the one that you chose out of whoever came in front of you to be, they were the best one for that role.
00:21:26
Speaker
Now your job is to just to help them be better and get out of the way and let them do it. And they're going to have way more job satisfaction. Yeah. If you like own something, when a, an adult owns a little portion of, i think their life, their job or something like this, and you can help them do it well, maybe they might just do it well on their own.
00:21:45
Speaker
It, is so much better. It's so much, they're better to be around. You actually have to manage them in a lesser state, like status. Um, yeah, just something that's been on my mind about lot.
00:21:59
Speaker
Cause have to deal people and, Oh yeah, it's exhausting. I'm going to put the man, a manager. All right. Number four. Why can't I get a good fucking meal? dude Why can't you?
00:22:11
Speaker
Why don't, do you not know how to cook? I'm not a very good cook. Okay. I'll tell you that. Well, you're not going to eat a good meal until your kids are out of the house then. Like, no, it's not even that. they Drop out. Good food, man. No, I just could like go to restaurants and shit and everything sucks.
00:22:25
Speaker
Well, yeah. What restaurants are you going to? McDonald's Wendy's. No. Chipotle. I did go to a McDonald's like a couple months ago.
00:22:38
Speaker
Breakfast. I used to eat a lot of fast food, like every day for probably eight or nine years. Um, fast food is so fucking awful now. like just It's just worried that super expensive.
00:22:51
Speaker
I went to McDonald's and I think it was fucking $18 or $19. Yeah, and that was the one thing that fast food really had going for It was cheaper than going to the other places. Yeah, yeah it's just it's way more it's way more terrible than even five years ago and it's way more expensive. Yeah.
00:23:08
Speaker
A regular fucking cheeseburger and a medium diet Coke from McDonald's was the jam. And every time it's just the fucking worst shit ever. Most restaurants are terrible right now. What's your go-to chain though? What's your like ride or die? this point I don't have, I mean, I eat Chipotle, but.
00:23:26
Speaker
ah Okay. i That no one used to be safe, but I feel like it's gotten weird in the last couple of years since the pandemic. No one can get people to like slang some fucking beans anymore for 15 bucks an hour. like yeah Nobody cares about doing it for that price.
00:23:43
Speaker
Nobody cares. you know like It's awful. And like you go to even a place like whatever, I'll just put it out there, like Centro in Northeast. like Love their food.
00:23:57
Speaker
But like it's kind of been getting less and less delightful in the last six. Like that taco place? yeah Yeah, right there on Quincy down the street from where your yeah spot was. But they have like a small empire now. And the food's like not as flavorful. They just pushed out their head chef.
00:24:13
Speaker
Wonder what's going on there. And then everything's a QR code. You're like, dude, Fuck some QR codes. so Well, fuck a QR code forever. But my whole thing is can I make this as well or better at home?
00:24:28
Speaker
And yes, some things like are going to take to do a really good slow roasted pork. I'm to need four or five hours. I don't have five hours. But like if I can make it as good or better, i won't even. Yeah. It's just it's not.
00:24:41
Speaker
I can't. Yeah. Because there's like a 4% service fee and then there's like an 18% wellness fee or whatever, flip those. And then you still had to serve yourself and like order it yourself. I'm like, I don't go out into the world and go to these people's places to sell myself my products. Like don't want to fucking w ring myself up. i don't want to bag my own shit. I don't want to go pick up my own food at the counter. Like yeah i could do that at home.
00:25:09
Speaker
For free. We're a weird period between – People not wanting to do the job for the shitty prices anymore and robots doing them. God damn it. like But I think we're about to enter, like, whenever there was a food age with the 50s, like post-World War II, and then the microwave and everything, that was like, wow this is... Remember, you used to be able to make a fucking milkshake in your microwave? Whoa. No, I don't remember that. Like, it came out cold.
00:25:35
Speaker
That's fucked up. I do not remember that. Anyways, I think we're going to enter a new era of food and food service once the the robots and AI like are introduced to the kitchen.
00:25:46
Speaker
I think it'd be really fucking cool. Whoa. But i don't I don't know if that – I agree with you in commercial settings. Applebee's, TGI Friday's. Oh, yeah.
00:25:57
Speaker
TGI Friday's. Fucking Chili's or something. Those are the first three restaurants that convert to all robots. Yeah. That's what saying. But yeah our local restaurants, I don't think are going to go away.
00:26:10
Speaker
um the the Like the Shining Star, the the places we go to because they're special. Oh, yeah. Like the Bar La Grasse's and stuff. The Bon Sainte-Solvers. Not the chains. The chains will go to fucking robots and yeah automation and stuff like that. And hooray for them. But and I still I'm willing to spend a lot of money on some fucking good food.
00:26:30
Speaker
But the service sucks because there's no incentive for the the waiters to do a great job if they're not getting tipped. This is a fucking proven concept. like No, it's not.
00:26:44
Speaker
and What do you mean? Go to fucking Europe. Yeah, true. No one fucking tips in Europe and you get amazing, consistently good service. Yeah, but yeah the problem is is that Europe has been that way and America has not been that way.
00:26:56
Speaker
And you go from a tipping system. No, you you take a ah ah professional server and take away their incentive every night. to To strive and make that money.
00:27:08
Speaker
I know a lot of servers that go into the night and be like, I'm going to fucking pull out $450. take that apply it to any other job. Well, yeah, that's kind of where I'm thinking. Isn't Tucker going to try even harder if he got tipped as a fucking grocery store marketing director, you know? If at the end of every day, Tucker brought home the cash minutes after he did that work, I guarantee you some days he'd be like,
00:27:32
Speaker
Fuck, I'm going hustle today and and bring home like fucking 600 bucks today. It's true, man. don't you The problem is, EC, is that you don't you have a disconnect of when you work and you get your paycheck.
00:27:44
Speaker
What? No, I host workshops and people tip me. That's not how well I do. In cash. In cash. Yes. Money. Money. cash money.
00:27:56
Speaker
So you're saying that that if you didn't get tipped and you just got like a like a just an even amount that was less you would try just as hard. My base amount is what is nice.
00:28:10
Speaker
The other is for going above and beyond gratuity.
00:28:18
Speaker
That's it's not making me try harder. It's just we vibe or connect with someone. take him out back of the woods. There you go. Let him look under my shirt for a little bit. Show him a deer.
00:28:30
Speaker
Show him deer. all right. Number six or five. This one may go I'm going to piss you guys off on. um I love it. fucking Maybe my washer would last longer if I gave it money every day.
00:28:47
Speaker
No, no, no. All right, say it aloud. Oh, ah durable goods, like durable items. Yeah. Like lifelong items, buying things that are that that last.
00:29:00
Speaker
you know and name Name one thing that you're going to have your entire life. Dude, like a Dieter Rams fucking Braun face shaver, you could probably have that your whole life. Okay, so hold on. So in my Braun's going to discontinue the...
00:29:14
Speaker
In my 20s, had zero money. ah I'm moving from place to place. And you know it didn't make sense to me for me to buy a couch that I would have the rest of my life.
00:29:25
Speaker
But – You couldn't even afford it then. Exactly. Nor would you want to buy that couch. Well, I agree. In previous previous times, people would get furniture and and keep it for ah very, very long time. But I'm talking about just pretty much everything. We buy so much shit.
00:29:41
Speaker
Yeah. Not durable. That is just fucking garbage at last. Yeah. Anywhere from weeks to a couple months or something like that. And then we just throw it away because it's not fucking worth anything. Yeah.
00:29:53
Speaker
It's total horseshit from fucking cars to um the latest fucking air fryer or fucking. Whatever, man. There's just too much junk. there's too much shit.
00:30:05
Speaker
Yeah, I'm worth that. When do we need to start frying air as we've clearly gone why do we have to fry the air to make something? We have microwaves, toaster ovens, like,
00:30:17
Speaker
actual ovens, fucking like fire, grit, grit, grittles, panini grills. Like we have so many ways to make things hot.
00:30:29
Speaker
don't know. Well, not necessari necessarily. It doesn't have to necessarily be your entire life. it It, first of all, I mean, you could start with the design aspect of pretty much any item. Whereas we have like these thousand dollar fucking cell phones, uh,
00:30:41
Speaker
And for most part, most people can't repair them. You can't get the parts from Apple or something. Yeah, that's bullshit. You have to take it to their authorized repair places. Planned obsolescence, my friend. Yeah, it's fucked up. The EU is forcing these companies to like actually give the service information and repair parts out. Are you saying you agree with Europe?
00:31:07
Speaker
but Maybe they're doing something right. When comes to stuff like that, yeah, I mean, if you really want to push this sustain, I mean, so many things are labeled sustainable now, but if everything can only be thrown away or completely disassembled and recycled, and has to be completely remade, that's not sustainable in any sort of way. You got to able put new parts on things.
00:31:31
Speaker
Yeah, I am shocked that no one has created an open source printer that can just take like refillable or generic ink cartridges.
00:31:42
Speaker
oh yeah. It isn't yeah attached to any sort of proprietary software, you know. That'd be incredible. Like, I feel like whoever would make that and do like a Kickstarter to get like a small production run going, if they knew how to scale up.
00:31:58
Speaker
I would fully support that. Yeah. Cause they're, they're probably my number one, like evil device that is, ah that I depend on, but you're trapped.
00:32:09
Speaker
Yeah. probably how like farmers feel about John Deere or something like that, where it's like, you just like, Oh, with the seed companies, dude. Yeah. the The seed companies. And then you have to buy the fertilizer and the herbicides that have like the same root, you know,
00:32:24
Speaker
reciprocating molecular structure that work with your fucking fucked up seeds so like you're just bought in for the whole system what would you what would you recommend the a specific product that no one should ever fucking buy mine would be a black and and the battery a second one the battery fucking dies in about two years Black and Decker, do they make stuff anymore? They do. just know somebody Somebody bought the name and they fucking... That's the thing too. It's like you you they take... these So many brands have these legacy names.
00:33:01
Speaker
Black and Decker. Been around for fucking ever. And it's now just a holding group and they just put their names on all kinds of fucking garbage. I hate that. And people buy it. And everybody is guilty of this. I'm guilty of it. Everybody is. like yeah We buy this shit.
00:33:15
Speaker
And it's not inexpensive. No. And it can never be repaired, and then it just goes into a fucking landfill, man. It's total horseshit. And now there's a lot of things that, like, on the front end make sense, but in the reality of it, it might not.
00:33:33
Speaker
And I don't want to go down the speculative hole of, like, like EV cars, for example, obviously ah electric your cars are great, right? um But the you know depending on who you, you know what research hole you go down, the CEO equivalent equivalent of manufacturing a lithium ion battery, even some of the sources from the automotive manufacturers is the equivalent of about 50,000 miles of a gasoline car just to produce that battery.
EV Batteries vs. Gasoline Cars
00:34:04
Speaker
Now that makes sense if you're gonna keep that EV For 100,000 miles. Right. And you don't, like, have to repair it that much or change the battery out a couple times.
00:34:16
Speaker
But if you do, which a lot of these cars aren't to that level yet, they're where we need them to be. That's not much better. And it could be better in different ways. But um it's not much better than just a really nice, like, hybrid.
00:34:29
Speaker
Yeah. or a really fuel efficient motorcycle or a scooter like other countries do. I feel like our parents went through the golden era of appliances when you could buy like a washing machine or a dishwasher and it was going to last like a significant amount of time. Those are the appliances were so fucking overbuilt. I love it.
00:34:51
Speaker
Yeah. My parents still have the microwave from 1986. Yeah. yeah The one the house came with. It still works. That's, Nuts. in in In all reality, though, if even if that thing is very inefficient,
00:35:08
Speaker
but kept it for so they kept it for so long black and they use it every time they have to fucking stoke it with coal or some shit. Get the crank out. It's a fucking microwave with a ripcord start.
00:35:19
Speaker
Yeah. i mean You bring up a good point. like Dishwashers, for example. Dishwashers nowadays, they're so... and First of all, they're very expensive, but they have there so many electronics and so much shit. and they're not Everything's made out of fucking plastic.
00:35:34
Speaker
ah um Very quickly, you go... You get four or five years out of a fucking dishwasher. ah my my I have a i have a truck is full of fucking infotainment fucking all those lights and shit it rains all the fucking sensors for the uh uh crash avoidance and fucking whatever they all go off and flash at me because it's raining what no or like snow or something like that watch out for that raindrop watch out for that for real for real
00:36:09
Speaker
and Here's the thing is that in 10 years, these vehicles that are just over, and I'm not saying that crash avoidance is is a bad thing. It's not. It's great. It saved so many people's lives, especially when everybody's on their fucking phones.
00:36:22
Speaker
heard But these super electronic vehicles with all these sensors and all this shit in 10 years, um who the fuck going to be able fix this stuff? Yeah.
00:36:33
Speaker
The parts aren't even going to be available. And you'll at that point, you have to buy $70,000 replacement car a whole car that you're going to have replace. Yeah. Tell me how that's efficient. It's not, it's terrible for the fucking world.
00:36:45
Speaker
I'm not buying any more new cars. Like I'm at that point in my life where it's just like, I'm only buying older cars now. Nice. Like the older you get, the older the cars get. Exactly. Yeah. Cute.
00:36:59
Speaker
That's cute. My, uh, my parents also, the dishwasher, like it hasn't gone bad in 76 years.
00:37:09
Speaker
It's your fucking mom.
00:37:13
Speaker
Wow. Perfect segue for our next one. you know, yeah, everything isn't terrible all the time. Like every, some people are just fucking stuck. I just can't, I just can't, man.
00:37:26
Speaker
You gotta find the joy. I'm even that guy. You just, I, it's tiring to, to be irritated and mad all the time. It's tiring to think that the entire world is just all a joke and everyone around you is dumber than you are and how you're so fucking smart and how everything's bad and everything's gonna be bad and the world's ending and this politician is gonna ruin everything and the economy's gonna go down and just wait for it. Like, you yeah everybody that lives this way
00:37:58
Speaker
What the fuck, man? Just steal their phones. That's how you like turn them away from being that kind of person.
Impact of Global News
00:38:06
Speaker
It's just when you have access to every fucking atrocity or newsworthy item like that's going on around the world, it's too much.
00:38:14
Speaker
Just turn off your phone and look around you. And if there's shit happening around you, maybe deal with that. give you some We're so surrounded with every snippet of information from every country, from every fucking minute and everything that everyone said all the time.
00:38:32
Speaker
You know, people think that the good old days were good. No, they were awful. We just didn't know about everything. Yeah. Because I didn't read my newspaper 200 times a day with updates that this guy in Russia said this and this thing's happening and it's a threat of war.
00:38:49
Speaker
No, it got filtered. And a lot of times I feel like the – what would you say? The threshold of truth or what people thought was the truth was maybe a little bit higher than it is today. know more Whereas people are like, maybe we shouldn't print this because it might not be true.
00:39:07
Speaker
I don't think that's that that's really mentioned nowadays. No, there's probably more. On any side of media. Yeah. and any any side of media I think that threshold of like, maybe we shouldn't say this because it might not be true. Yeah. Oh, for sure.
00:39:22
Speaker
I don't think it's being respected the way it should be. You think so? started out with this fucking podcast telling people about vapes, liquor, liquor, and water. Man, I don't know, man. Yeah. Like any reasonable person, if, if I did not believe you the slightest bit and you're fucking crazy and you're telling, trying to tell me something, I will hear you out if you're respectful I will listen to all of your crazy stories and i will even research them and try to understand where you're coming from.
00:39:51
Speaker
I just, you know, people need to fucking chill the fuck out. Oh, great. That's where I'm going with that one. Heard. Okay, that one's quick. I like that one. Yeah, we'll just move on from that one. It gets a little deep. The new Alkaline Trio album came out.
00:40:06
Speaker
I fucking love it. Tucker's making this fucking smirky face. I got really excited last Friday morning when I saw that that album finally came out and you know, they just put out a video a couple of months ago it had like Steve Caballero and shit in it. Like I was um like, I want to, I want to be in I listened crimson God damn it.
00:40:31
Speaker
And the other one, I can't think of the word with the fire in it. Um, like, All of the time. I love those albums. They were the anthem of like 1996 through 2003.
00:40:45
Speaker
that i k't That new album is just like watered down. i don't know if it's that, what's his face? Got throat surgery a few years ago and his voice is different. Well, no, like I think he'd sound, he doesn't have that like.
00:40:57
Speaker
Just full on. Here's the thing. Okay. Talk box. Like Joey Cape from Lagwagon. Wow. Talk box. What? This is a Peter Frampton shit. He's fucking talking through his guitar.
00:41:08
Speaker
Joey Cape. Joey Cape. You guys got really quiet. Oh, sorry. So anyway, a Joey Cape, right? A Greg Graffin, whatever, pick a band.
00:41:21
Speaker
Like they, they're able to get older, lose the energy, have their voice actually change. Maybe some of the, the music itself,
00:41:32
Speaker
is shifting or morphing or progressing or whatever. um And it works. And it feels like, it's like when you see that actor, that's like aging gracefully, they're just like owning where they are in their career and where their body is and the energy they can bring to it.
00:41:48
Speaker
And that Alkaline Trio album is like, they're trying to do something that they just can't do. anymore. I like it. I think it's, I think it's, uh, I think it's, it's, you're a grumpy dick. That's too, that's too used to the music that you like. And I mean that in a very respectful way because this album at first was shocking to me because, um just like some of the other albums, they were too different for me to enjoy at first.
00:42:17
Speaker
And I, I think yeah we I think we've talked about this with bands in the previous season. Um, you know, the the fans want to feel good. They want to hear what they want to hear. Yeah. But the bands actually have to play the music and they have to keep themselves fresh and exciting. And I, the more I listen to this, the more if I, the more I see that this is a departure from the old with some snippets from the old that are, that they still kind of hold on to.
00:42:46
Speaker
um i think you just got to listen to more or maybe you just won't ever like it. I do understand that like, There are when album releases that are instantly successful in my brain are very seldom these days.
00:43:03
Speaker
But I like a lot of new music. like So I do realize I have to stick with something for a few listens before it catches. Yeah, it is weird. We just don't do that anymore.
00:43:14
Speaker
I started checking out CDs from the library well because i have a CD player in my car. And so it's kind of great. I put in the CD and then I don't think about music for the next 45 to 60 minutes.
00:43:27
Speaker
Like all of a sudden, these little micro decisions that I'm having to make, of like skipping to the next or I don't like this one. What else is next? yeah I'm not making those. My brain is a little bit more free.
00:43:37
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. And I build up appreciation because I'm going to listen to that CD like five times in a week because it's in my fucking car. Yeah, you're not going to take that out. Yeah.
00:43:48
Speaker
And then you get that six disc changer in the trunk. Oh, shit. Hold on. Big plastic cassettes. I had one of those in my Civic. With those super flimsy arms that you put a disc in and they were like all floppy and you're like.
00:44:00
Speaker
How you just don't have shattered plastic everywhere? i don't know. Yeah. That's good. Yeah. One little quick snippet about this is they just switched drummers recently. Yeah. so all their music videos have the new drummer, right? But this album was recorded with the old drummer. Mm. And all over their internet is, i mean, all over YouTube and stuff is that is people's reactions, like Tucker's reaction, where they don't like the album because it's different or whatever.
00:44:28
Speaker
And it's just so much hate on the new drummer. The new drummer sucks this track. Like, he plays so much different than Derek, the old drummer. and they're wrong. And little do they know, is it it is a big drumming departure, um but it's the old drummer.
00:44:43
Speaker
Funny. So it's kind of like our perception is really... quewing which i mean, music is there to either be enjoyed or not to be enjoyed. yeah That's why there's so many bands and whatever. So hooray for these people. But on the other side, do you really need to make the comment on the internet?
00:44:59
Speaker
Well, the internet's whack. That should be on this list too. but There have been zero essential comments on the internet. Yeah, heard. Not a single comment on the internet needed to be made.
00:45:10
Speaker
All right, number eight. We're almost to this fucking list. Jesus Christ. It's a great list. What the fuck is this? It's a great list. It's a great list. Okay, so EC sort of turned me on to this, surprisingly. um You made us watch that terrible fucking movie.
00:45:26
Speaker
What was it from? Fucking... New Zealand? No. Oh, those people. Australia. No, that movie, was it from fucking Russia? was black and white. They rode the train forever in silence looking at each other. yeah. Stalker. Tarkovsky. Yeah.
00:45:43
Speaker
Oh, my God. So, I mean, I suffered through that movie, and I still don't ever want to see it again. But there was, like, comfort in not knowing what they were saying. And it's so different that the people's reactions are different. Just everything is different. So...
00:45:59
Speaker
That kind of, I mean, turned me on to some of this shit on Netflix. and Netflix has watching a lot of Korean soap operas. Oh, my God. Mostly Korean um reality shows. Oh.
00:46:10
Speaker
This shit is great, man. There's show called Physical 100. And what shocks me, shocks me is how respectful everyone is. Like, crazy respectful. Like...
00:46:23
Speaker
Instead of like reality shows are obviously fucking terrible. And it's like, they're cut to be dramatic and whatever, but all these shows are like this motherfucker's like crying because he beat this guy, but he respects him so much because he like looked up to him his entire life.
00:46:39
Speaker
Um, And they're just like commenting like, oh, i you know, i if I could, I would i would ah secede from this game and yeah just to honor this person. They're truthfully being just very fucking nice people.
00:46:52
Speaker
third it i mean, and have you ever watched Queer Eye? i would say most of the people on that show genuinely being nice. So I think it might just, you guys select different programming.
00:47:04
Speaker
I was watching, they have ah the trashiest TV on at the gym. And... I think the Discovery Channel has ah its dwarf wrestling reality TV show.
00:47:18
Speaker
Whoa. So it's like this whole, like, mean this is a real wrestling crew in Kentucky. They're all dwarfs. And this reality shows like how they're trying to promote it and make it bigger and practice and set up. So it's pretty fascinating.
00:47:33
Speaker
So I can't remember what it's called. Anyway, so i've I've gone on to Love is Blind from all the different countries.
Cultural Insights from 'Love is Blind'
00:47:40
Speaker
Okay. And it is it is comical. Love is Blind. So wait, that show comes out in every country?
00:47:46
Speaker
yeah they they They film it in a bunch of different countries. It's just really, with that one, it's shocking because you get to see every country's like subculture of what they think is like attractive. Oh, I love that. what The clothes that they wear and how they talk to each other and shit.
00:48:02
Speaker
Really interesting. this where the guy wears a mask and he doesn't reveal his face? No, but that's a really fun dating What is it called a again? Say it. is Love is Blind. It's like the most popular fucking show on Netflix right now. Really? awful. Don't watch it. Okay. um Except for the the Swedish one is really fucking funny and, i mean, whatever.
00:48:19
Speaker
I think I just need to watch way more TV and movies. Like, every time i talk to anyone, even you guys, it's like, where the fuck have I been? Mm-hmm. where I only watch stuff that I can, I don't have to pay attention to.
00:48:31
Speaker
and it's purely a like, I can sit here and like decompress for a little while and watch some ridiculous shit. And yeah. So if it's not, if it's not stressful, I'll watch it. But otherwise.
00:48:43
Speaker
Big disclaimer. I'm going to recommend things that I haven't really paid that much attention to. it, man. If I enjoy it, I'll tell people about it. I mean, I do think that.
00:48:55
Speaker
a TV show, a movie, a magazine, ah radio but album, whatever. Like those are really, but what's the word? um What am I looking for here? Like we should be able to just entertain ourselves.
00:49:14
Speaker
but you guys were already laughing before I even put that out of my mouth. No. What the fuck are you talking about? Are you saying people shouldn't release these things? No, I'm saying that. I'm knowing what I'm saying is that fucking movies.
00:49:26
Speaker
That's absolutely not what I'm saying. Uh, what I'm saying is that it, if Tyler wants to watch Korean physical 100, like grueling challenges, like, like that's,
00:49:42
Speaker
and you get stoked about that, like that you should, that's, yeah that's you, man. That's, that's for you. And like, who can judge is what I'm saying. It's like harmless. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think we were judging them.
00:49:53
Speaker
No, but like, I just, you know, I catch some heat for like wanting to watch like some anime, right. Or only wanting to watch comedy films. Like I, I won't out the person. Yeah.
00:50:05
Speaker
But, um, you know, it's just like, that's what I'm excited about. And like, why, Try to complicate that. Like that's, I get serious stuff here. I read serious things here. I live with, you know, like, yeah, I do pay attention to current events. Like I don't want serious or intense or really sad, you know, like.
00:50:27
Speaker
Do you ever watch? Sorry. Go ahead. tyler The problem with the world today, and we touched on it just a few minutes ago, is that you now get to know every sad, truthful, sad story, an awful thing. and there's a lot of them.
00:50:43
Speaker
And I unfortunately cannot help every person and every child and every, I cannot go to sleep at night knowing every story of every child that died in Palestine.
00:50:57
Speaker
And it, every time I do think about it, it makes me fuck it. Not Palestine everywhere. Yeah. The plight of, of innocent people having terrible times is awful.
00:51:07
Speaker
Yeah. I can't go to sleep every night engulfed in that. I can't. Yeah. That's exactly what I like to read before going to bed. Exactly.
00:51:19
Speaker
Just pages of – Like count and shape. Atrocities. Exactly. you know and i I have to balance that with reality and or or not reality. And if that means I have to watch a Korean show about physical – attributes of whatever to try to chill the fuck out. That's what i need to do. If you want me to continue in life. There's this one, uh, kids in the hall episode.
00:51:43
Speaker
i think it's season five, like one of the first or second episodes in that season. I love that show. And they cut, it's just a game show. That's like maybe in Sweden or Finland. You don't know there. I can't tell if they're making up a language, but you don't understand anything.
00:51:59
Speaker
And it's a game show where people have to put on oven mitts. And then they put their hands in a box and they have to hold these objects and try and figure out what they are. So this guy is just like manhandling a pineapple, trying to figure it out.
00:52:16
Speaker
It's hilarious sketch. That Which came first? The state? Or Kids in the Hall. Kids the Hall came first, us yeah. But that I just, that's the only foreign TV I think I've watched in a while.
00:52:33
Speaker
I guess it's Canadian. I do remember being in France and bored as shit and Saved by the Bell was on. And it was all different voices. Oh, God, that would be so interesting.
00:52:44
Speaker
Yeah. Like overdubs? Yep. as ah It was called Savoir, they even had like their own graphic. It was Savoir a la Gaune. Gaune. Whoa. So that's amazing. I would recommend And I think ah it's pretty easy to watch the Simpsons in another language.
00:53:00
Speaker
Those are quite fun. Oh yeah. Yeah. I could see that. All right. Final item. My last one is crazy stories that people believe that we should be more skeptical of. That applies to everything about everybody.
00:53:13
Speaker
yup I want to be the honest counterpart to everyone's crazy story they ever heard, including myself. There's been a lot of times where I read something and I go down this hole and I start thinking about it. I'm like, this is so right.
00:53:27
Speaker
Of course this is right. And if I apply a little bit of skeptic skepticism to it, you got to fucking find some holes. You need to be a responsible human being about stuff that's too good to be true and that feels too right and like sounds too great.
00:53:43
Speaker
Sounds like someone found out the earth was round again. Oh, shit. It was round. Can you
Conspiracy Theories and Skepticism
00:53:49
Speaker
believe that? You're like, i haven't seen lizard people in years. There's not, no, I saw.
00:53:54
Speaker
yeah Okay. So I'm on, I'm found fucking Instagram and there's this guy, he's a motorcycle shop but and there's a, his, he's showing these pictures of his flooded shop. He lives in San Diego and, uh, it makes really great motorcycles, parts and really cool stuff.
00:54:12
Speaker
And he makes this comment about, uh, uh, how his mayor should be spending more money on, um, uh, city's infrastructure than immigrants or something.
00:54:24
Speaker
And, and then one of the comments was like, uh, something about the, uh, liberal climate agenda, seeding the clouds to push their agenda in San Diego.
00:54:36
Speaker
And I'm like, that's the epicenter of the climate battle right there. San Diego.
00:54:43
Speaker
Okay. Who didn't pull you aside at one point and be like, Tim, Yeah, can just show you a few things or maybe read or like and go for a walk?
00:54:56
Speaker
but Nobody can get anything. Nobody can get their shit together. You put 100 people in. a Gather 100 people. Give them all $100,000. Tell them, hey, we're doing this secret thing.
00:55:08
Speaker
No one can know about it. Good luck keeping that a secret. Like 400 of those people are going to fail fucking miserably and take Instagram pictures of it. There's no fucking conspiracy about any of this stuff. We're uncontrollable, awful, terrible people.
00:55:24
Speaker
It's hilarious because didn't the government actually admit that there's evidence of aliens? like Yeah, they did that recently. Our government is just being like, listen, guys, this is all we got.
00:55:38
Speaker
and or just I mean, seeding clouds is a real thing. ah but There's like government websites that that show they're they're trying to seed clouds. There's things that they can do seed clouds to like...
00:55:50
Speaker
fucking make it snow more and stuff like that. Ronald Rogan. No, no. Like I looked it up like this, like real government. site It's like a pilot projects whatever. Even if that was the case, is this really the appropriate time in an Instagram post to like spew this crazy story that you kind of don't know? Well, yeah, it's like misdirected energy. Yeah.
00:56:10
Speaker
Like that really does suck. Well, that's what the internet is though. It's like, yeah, I could blast anybody without the, it Really having any sort of kind consequences.
00:56:20
Speaker
Yeah. Like there's no civil or social consequences when you've got some layers between you and the person that you're lighting up. Well, even when they're so there's this thing in like parks like way back in the day, there would be usually a speaker's forum.
00:56:38
Speaker
And it was essentially like a little pedestal you could stand up on. You could talk to whoever would stop and listen to you talk, right? Yeah. And if you really believe in cloud seeding, that would be the forum in which you're having to make your argument made.
00:56:51
Speaker
And most people, I feel like, would be like, OK, this person is crazy or this person maybe has some good ideas. But you had you couldn't be anonymous. You had to go up and stand up on the fucking pedestal.
00:57:03
Speaker
You have to have some skin in the game. I don't mind if you're crazy. Just fucking be transparent about it. You're crazy crazy everywhere. want know that you're crazy in the grocery store. I fucking totally agree with you one. No, so if you look up cloud seeding on the internet, there's dri.edu. Dude, Tyler, if you look up anything on the internet, you can use it to prove that you're
Encouraging Critical Thinking
00:57:24
Speaker
right, okay? No, I'm saying that it, this is a- That's what your whole point is, is that crazy stories that people believe we need to be more skeptical of.
00:57:35
Speaker
So I think you need to talk to a meteorologist and maybe they can talk to us about seeding. It's a desert research institute? No, they show like all the locations that they're... mean, maybe this is this is hilarious if it's really made up or something, but it looks like it...
00:57:51
