It's crazy to me
0:02
that we are getting
0:04
a new GTA game
0:06
and the last game
0:08
came out in 2013.
0:10
I know, it's been a
0:12
minute. Okay, open. Okay, open.
0:14
All right, so anybody. Cut
0:16
off the CEO, he needs
0:18
to leave. Totally adjust the
0:20
drink, like it's like, oh,
0:22
I'm just saying, you don't
0:24
know, somebody ran by really
0:26
quickly, and they are already
0:28
out of the frame. See,
0:30
that bar is not fly-by-wire.
0:32
Exactly. Welcome to vacation.
0:35
Also, potentially hazardous to
0:38
your health. Why
0:41
do you have flies when you're
0:43
freaking out? I've noticed this earlier.
0:45
It's Southern California and I have
0:47
fruit. You put Zombly and you
0:49
put here in the title and
0:51
I don't want to do it.
0:53
Dignation.com. Hello everybody and welcome to
0:56
Dignation, episode number 12. I'm
0:58
Alex Albrecht. And I'm Kevin Rose.
1:00
Dignation covers some of the hottest
1:02
stories as found around the web
1:04
and the internet. Boy, it's really, I
1:07
haven't done so a million times. I'm the
1:09
most excited for us to get back
1:11
to doing this from Dig stories just
1:13
to smooth at the intro. Because it's
1:15
not been smooth since we got back. Hey,
1:17
cheers, my friend. Good to see
1:20
you. Yeah, you will, obviously
1:22
our copy before was based
1:24
on the stories of Dig.com.
1:26
But since the site is
1:28
not live yet, Sunish, we
1:30
don't have to say that.
1:32
Well, and we can also
1:34
say, I think, believe so,
1:36
that. Though we had said
1:38
that this was the Dignation
1:40
Studio here in Hollywood,
1:43
California, which of course it technically
1:45
is the other thing that we neglected
1:47
to mention is it's actually in the
1:49
current dig offices. Right. Which is awesome.
1:52
It is awesome. So the some of
1:54
the dig team, yeah, if you want
1:56
any camera, move your way, go away.
1:58
So it's really actually. quite nice because
2:00
everybody just got really quiet when we
2:03
were like, okay, let's start. I was
2:05
like, oh. But yeah, dude, and freaking,
2:07
look at the. I know, look at
2:09
that. The person that dodged the camera
2:11
who, I can't say their name, did
2:13
that up there. It's so nice is
2:16
that person that dodged the camp. Which
2:18
is awesome. Thank you for making little
2:20
indignation. I had so much fun at
2:22
Southside. I did not. Oh my God,
2:24
are you kidding me? It was so
2:26
much fun, Kevin. I agree to agree
2:29
to disagree. Okay, well, where's the disagree?
2:31
Because it was funny when you came
2:33
in and I was like, oh my
2:35
God, it was so much fun. Shots
2:37
happened, soccer happened. Is what happened? I
2:39
know, don't say it two more times,
2:41
people fly in and give a shot.
2:44
A couple friends called me up and
2:46
they were like, oh my God, you
2:48
were hammered. And I'm like, oh, Jesus.
2:50
And like, you know, there's that temptation,
2:52
do I go and watch the episode
2:54
again? Yes. No, I will not do
2:57
that. I cannot bring myself to do
2:59
it. I saw the clip of us,
3:01
I mean, it wasn't Reno. Which, no.
3:03
Yes, it was my arena. To be
3:05
fair, that was my goal, was just
3:07
don't make it Reno, for me personally.
3:10
I see you flew in the face
3:12
of that goal. Dude, I didn't know
3:14
Saka was gonna be bringing the shots
3:16
up. Why would we? I think soccer
3:18
was going to be a pretty shot
3:20
thing. Well, we didn't know, but everyone
3:22
with the crowd was like, yeah, the
3:25
soccer, soccer, soccer. And I was just
3:27
like, I kind of got into it.
3:29
I mean, there's no way we're to,
3:31
I mean, look, spoiler alert, everybody knows
3:33
this. Go back and watch any episode.
3:35
Remember the Reno moment when somebody handed
3:38
us the fucking giant bowl of alcohol
3:40
that we chugged? Yeah. Like if we're
3:42
doing a live show and someone somehow,
3:44
maybe like a guest. brings up shots.
3:46
There's an adrenaline factor. I mean, first
3:48
of all, I hate tequila. Like, tequila
3:51
is my least favorite outball. And usually
3:53
throw up. I was very nice. I
3:55
also don't know what a hundred point
3:57
tequila is. No one really does. So
3:59
that was the best thing. He was
4:01
like, it's a hundred point tequila? And
4:03
everyone's like, oh, fuck. And then I
4:06
was like, after he left, I was
4:08
like, what's a hundred point tequila? I
4:10
was like, oh, soccer just made it
4:12
up. Yeah, so basically what happened is,
4:14
you know, when you're getting ready to
4:16
go unsteaded. Oh, by the way, Kevin.
4:19
What? The other thing that they don't
4:21
know is. You had a slice of
4:23
pizza. You had a slice of a
4:25
couple times that we had coming for
4:27
us. And so we didn't get until
4:29
like just before the show. I know.
4:32
And then I'm glad that you have
4:34
you have one. But the funny thing
4:36
was like, I was like, okay, well,
4:38
you know, we haven't done a live
4:40
show in a long time. I'm largely
4:42
an introvert. Yes. And, you know, I'm
4:44
down when the cameras go on and
4:47
like, I'm down, like, turn it on.
4:49
Like, that's, it's, yeah. But I so
4:51
I had probably two drinks before I
4:53
got on stage. I believe that was
4:55
about right. And then when I got
4:57
on stage, it was like, okay, now
5:00
we got a drink, get a set
5:02
up, let's kick up the show. And
5:04
then I was like, shot. I was
5:06
like, okay, whoa, okay, now I'm at
5:08
three. And that's kind of like where
5:10
I tap out in the normal, like,
5:13
Kevin is not going to be hung
5:15
over the next day. Yeah, just called
5:17
a called a Thursday. Yeah, no, I'm
5:19
talking me in right now. I'm going
5:21
to bed. Yeah, exactly. We have two
5:23
more guests going up to bed. I
5:25
bed, bed, I go to bed. So,
5:28
I will say after the third, I
5:30
think we did three shots. Yeah. And
5:32
they, by the way, those were not
5:34
shot glasses. Those were baby wine glasses.
5:36
Yes. Filled with tequila. It was a
5:38
lot. After the third shot. I remember
5:41
going like this. Ooh. Oh. actively drunk.
5:43
Yes. There's no and you were passively
5:45
drunk. I was not passively drunk. I
5:47
had been passively drunk and I immediately
5:49
turned to actively drunk. Right. And then
5:51
at one point I poured what I
5:54
thought was a done shot out and
5:56
it spilled so then we had to
5:58
do another one. Yeah. That was on
6:00
me. I should have looked at the
6:02
class. You poured one out? No, no,
6:04
no! It had a splash more in
6:07
it than I thought. When I was
6:09
like, see, I took my shot, and
6:11
I went like this, and something came
6:13
out, and the audience was like, I
6:15
literally thought it was done, and so
6:17
Sakha. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, exactly.
6:19
Yeah, exactly. Yeah, exactly. It was fun.
6:22
Yeah, I literally thought it was done,
6:24
and so Saka. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I
6:26
do want to apologize to the crowd
6:28
because I got a chance to say
6:30
hi to some people, but I really
6:32
did not make it through the crowd
6:35
the way I wanted to say hi
6:37
to everyone. You did? You came back?
6:39
I'm like sitting in a chair like
6:41
hammed and you come back and you're
6:43
like, do we? I had a family
6:45
friend that came out and brought her
6:48
daughter who was like, to meet you.
6:50
And then I had, I felt so
6:52
bad, I had this person I was
6:54
supposed to talk to you, and I
6:56
was hammered and. Did you talk to
6:58
them and you thought the interaction was
7:00
weird because your hammer or you just
7:03
couldn't, didn't make it happen? I had
7:05
a family friend that came out, it
7:07
was my sister's best friend that came
7:09
out and brought her daughter who was
7:11
like, to meet you. Just on like,
7:13
I'm like, I'm like, me stuff that
7:16
I'm doing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And
7:18
so she comes out to say hi,
7:20
I'm like, I am a ham. And
7:22
I'm like, this is not a good
7:24
first impression for some young, like, you
7:26
know, personally, just like getting a career
7:29
off the ground. I'm like, hey, this
7:31
is what we normally do. Look forward
7:33
to this future. She's like, oh, I'm
7:35
going to become a botanist. Exactly. So
7:37
basically there's like this like beautiful like
7:39
little discrete Japanese bar in Austin that's
7:41
like invioli and all that's quiet. They
7:44
play vinyl and stuff and so there's
7:46
like a group of people that go
7:48
afterwards and apparently like Saka gets there
7:50
and everyone's ham, right? And they pour
7:52
these drinks, they make them all shaken
7:54
like perfect. clean everything. And they come
7:57
over and one of the drinks is
7:59
like, yeah, it's okay. And like, I
8:01
don't really want it. And so Saka's
8:03
like, you know, a little ham, he's
8:05
like, hey, can I have a second
8:07
drink? I don't like this drink. And
8:10
they're like, sir, we can only serve
8:12
you one drink at a time. And
8:14
so he fucking grabs your drink. So
8:16
he got kicked out of a bar.
8:18
which is along with the entire group,
8:20
but it was just one of those
8:22
nights. It was one of those nights
8:25
where everyone got a little. Yeah, I
8:27
mean, as I was saying to you,
8:29
thank God my wife was there, because
8:31
Heather was like, such a good wingman.
8:33
I literally was like, because I come
8:35
back, we're just finished, get off the
8:38
stage, Mix Master Mike is starting up,
8:40
and I'm like, I gotta go make
8:42
sure I say hi to everybody. And
8:44
so I. just go straight out into
8:46
the audience and try my best to
8:48
just sort of meet, see as many
8:51
people as I can and say hi
8:53
to them. And so I'm just drunkenly
8:55
swerving through saying hi, taking pictures, hi,
8:57
fobs, hugs. I think I cried on
8:59
that with this guy. It was like,
9:01
I had this really like cool emotional
9:03
moment with this kid. And it was
9:06
just like, it was just like, it
9:08
was like, mid 20s or something like
9:10
that. But it was really cool. It
9:12
was like this, we had this like
9:14
moment. And it was like, I don't
9:16
even remember. But it was just something
9:19
about like inspiring because the kid was
9:21
like, I want to try to do
9:23
this stuff. And I was like, I'm
9:25
already, I've done my bit. You need
9:27
to go and do your bit. You
9:29
need to go and do your bit.
9:32
You know, I had my bit. You
9:34
need to go and do your bit.
9:36
You know, I had my fun. You
9:38
know. I was like, oh. Okay, I
9:40
go this way. People are part of
9:42
them. But it was super fun. And
9:44
then when I got done, I kind
9:47
of got through as many people as
9:49
I could meet. And then I was
9:51
like, I got to get back into
9:53
the back. I literally walk in and
9:55
I see Heather and I was like,
9:57
we should go. And Heather was like,
10:00
yes, we're all and everybody was sort
10:02
of leaving at that time. So I
10:04
went out and literally as we walked.
10:06
at the door, this car pulled up,
10:08
and I was like, oh, we should
10:10
get an Uber. And she goes, this
10:13
is our Uber. And I was like,
10:15
oh. I got into the Uber. It
10:17
was like, Charlie, the chocolate factory. I
10:19
got into the Uber. And the next
10:21
thing I remember, I'm eating a hamburger
10:23
in my bed. Like I have no
10:25
conscious memory of how I got you
10:28
out of the hotel. I just woke
10:30
up and I just woke up and
10:32
I was like, oh, hamburger. And then
10:34
you're like, you're like, like, like, like,
10:36
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
10:38
like, like, like, passed out, like, like,
10:41
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
10:43
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
10:45
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
10:47
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
10:49
like, like, like, like, like, like, like
10:51
to the hotel and then I remember
10:54
was like, wasn't that cool? Thadari and
10:56
she didn't seem to think it was
10:58
that cool. It was all right. Yeah,
11:00
I just fell asleep. It's like, whatever.
11:02
It was like one of those nights.
11:04
It felt, it felt so weird how
11:07
normal it felt. Does that make sense?
11:09
Like there was nothing, it just felt
11:11
like so easy. Like even backstage, like
11:13
yeah, there were nerves, but like as
11:15
soon as we got on, although it's
11:17
funny because like, not a regular episode
11:19
of Dignation, you know what I mean?
11:22
Like, we were just like, because it
11:24
was so excited because we had, a
11:26
lot of guests, you guys announcing the
11:28
whole dig.com revivalization, hello, hello, hi, good
11:30
to see you, hi, hi, Justin, hang
11:32
out. And then also we had all
11:35
these guests, because we were there, and
11:37
our buds, because we were there, because
11:39
we were there. is actually a sort
11:41
of follow-on for a story we were
11:43
going to potentially talk about. I mean,
11:45
I feel so bad for, like, Tim,
11:48
when we were, like, gonna announce his
11:50
game. Oh, I know. And we're like,
11:52
just about to wrap up with Tim.
11:54
We're like, anyway, you got anything else
11:56
going on? Oh, oh, yeah. This whole
11:58
thing. I know. So bad stuff that
12:00
we wanted to talk about, or no.
12:03
Like the secret like little private thing
12:05
the secret stuff Yeah, I mean yeah,
12:07
why don't you? Can I talk about
12:09
that for a second? Yeah, so I
12:11
will see. Before, the last time we
12:13
recorded. You don't even know how to,
12:16
but I'd have put it in the,
12:18
dude. I just stuck you guys on,
12:20
on black, that's it. You should come
12:22
in hand in the office more often.
12:24
Yeah, if I get one, then. All
12:26
right. So you're going to say the
12:29
thing about the secret things. One or
12:31
something. So basically, one of the things
12:33
that, you know, we're kind of marching
12:35
towards this, this. I think is going
12:37
to be a really fun thing for
12:39
people is we're having these fantastic debates
12:41
and kind of hashing out features and
12:44
talking about functionality and talking about how
12:46
we're going to be different and what
12:48
are the things and components that we
12:50
want to keep from the past. What
12:52
do we want to evolve going forward?
12:54
And there's a lot of amazing kind
12:57
of just like insider baseball, but also
12:59
if you're a fan you want to
13:01
watch this stuff and see all the
13:03
startup actually gets off the ground, you
13:05
probably would want to be there and
13:07
see that happen. So we came up
13:10
with this idea where what we're going
13:12
to do is we're going to make
13:14
a like an early access what were
13:16
we calling that those ground breakers ground
13:18
breakers so it's like the ground breakers
13:20
like tied to kind of like the
13:22
dig theme and so the idea is
13:25
like tied to kind of like the
13:27
dig theme and so the idea is
13:29
that if you sign up to be
13:31
one of these ground breakers which anyone
13:33
can do on the site when it
13:35
goes live and if it's But if
13:38
you sign up, we'll happen as you'll
13:40
get to pick your dig username early.
13:42
And then you will get one of
13:44
these ground breaker badges like forever, like
13:46
cemented into your profile. And then also,
13:48
and we're going to, if you were
13:51
at the Live Dignation, we're going to
13:53
send you these, don't worry about you,
13:55
you're going to get invited to all
13:57
this stuff. We have your email addresses.
13:59
Yeah! But you'll get, do I get
14:01
to be groundbreaking? Yeah, maybe you'll grow
14:03
bigger. Yeah. We'll say slash Alex for
14:06
you. Oh, ooh, yeah. I mean, if
14:08
that's what you want, you don't have
14:10
to take that either. Christ, how many
14:12
cocktails? These are all nice. These are
14:14
actually mine. I have actually have a
14:16
four-way straw I'm about to put into
14:19
all of these to have sighted it
14:21
all out. I literally did not even
14:23
notice any bills lined up and then
14:25
all of a sudden like bartender Justin
14:27
has appeared. To me fair, this is
14:29
this is kind of Kevin's ammo refills.
14:32
Jesus. That is better not be. It's
14:34
not indignation around, live indignation around two.
14:36
But so anyway, to finish up this
14:38
thought. Yeah. The other thing we're to
14:40
do is we're gonna have this little
14:42
tiny secret private community where we're going
14:44
to So you get to see like
14:47
early screenshots, debate and talk about the
14:49
functionality with us, what you'd like to
14:51
see, all of that stuff, and we'll
14:53
do kind of like, you know, weekly,
14:55
at least once, probably twice a week
14:57
updates of, you know, what's going on,
15:00
you know, what's probably twice a week
15:02
updates of, you know, what's going on.
15:04
So you get to see it like,
15:06
you know, the question is like, like,
15:08
like, Everyone would want it so you
15:10
got to figure out how to limit
15:13
it out So I think what we're
15:15
going to do is we're going to
15:17
figure out the price point And the
15:19
cool thing about it is a hundred
15:21
percent of proceeds is going to go
15:23
to I think we're going to the
15:26
internet archive foundation Which is the last
15:28
thing of which is a nonprofit which
15:30
helps backup the internet and save all
15:32
the web pages. So this is not
15:34
about us trying to make money. We
15:36
can't be a for-profit business because that
15:38
makes sense too. I mean you are
15:41
a for-profit. Right. The point being is
15:43
that it's not a way to say
15:45
hey we want to just do a
15:47
cash grab to grab an early username.
15:49
Like so that's all going to go
15:51
to the Internet archive as a donation
15:54
and then that's all going to go
15:56
to the Internet archive as a donation
15:58
and then that will get you access.
16:00
It's not who we are and we'll
16:02
do that. and then you'll get in
16:04
and get to sell the inside baseball
16:07
and chat with us and talk to
16:09
us about this stuff. I mean I
16:11
will say just even being like the
16:13
stealthy slack guy and seeing some of
16:15
the like under the design stuff where
16:17
it's like oh let's try this let's
16:19
try that let's try this and I'm
16:22
like, oh, that looks sexy. Like, this
16:24
is gonna be so cool. I mean,
16:26
you just saw some of the, um,
16:28
all avatar stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
16:30
it's gonna be dumb. Well, and I
16:32
think part of it really is a
16:35
positioning of, like, trying to make, dig
16:37
something that really is community built. Like,
16:39
it's like, we, you know, there's, there's
16:41
this idea of like, We have obviously
16:43
very strong opinions about what the future
16:45
of social should look like, but at
16:48
the same time, it's like, if that
16:50
was just us going into a cave
16:52
and just hacking our own way and
16:54
they'd be like, and this is what
16:56
the future of all social should be,
16:58
like, that feels disingenuous. And so I
17:00
think that this is kind of an
17:03
opportunity to show a different way to
17:05
build in public with, you know, people
17:07
who can, like, these people we're listening
17:09
to, this is what we're trying to
17:11
do when we're trying to do when
17:13
we're building actual real real, to get
17:16
that input and get that feedback, but
17:18
it's also a really cool opportunity, I
17:20
think, for other people to understand, like,
17:22
the hot dog is messy, it's not
17:24
perfect, and it sometimes looks really ugly,
17:26
and it will, you'll see ugly designs
17:29
in there, and, uh, that sounds fun.
17:31
I want the, the hot dog is
17:33
messy, dink. I'm sure. Just, like, a
17:35
big, slapping. Got a lot of merch
17:37
potential of this company. in the history
17:39
of our show. Did you design that
17:41
or did you? There was so much
17:44
good merge. No, it was a collaborative
17:46
effort. I did some of it. Emily,
17:48
one of our contractors who works with
17:50
us is awesome. She did all like
17:52
the posters and the branding and the
17:54
posters and the branding and the lion's
17:57
share of the work and it was
17:59
tremendous. I still have my bubble head.
18:01
It's hysterical. I love. I never got
18:03
one of myself. You didn't get one
18:05
of yourself? No. You sold a lot
18:07
of bubble heads, which is great. Did
18:10
we actually sell bubble heads? Yeah, we
18:12
did. I saw one more than you
18:14
did. I'm serious. No, I don't believe
18:16
that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just one one
18:18
of Kevin. Yeah, my wife just stole
18:20
one, so they go. It would have
18:22
even now. Yeah, I think so. So
18:25
before we get to, yes. I was
18:27
just going to say, people go to
18:29
dig.com, put in your email address if
18:31
you don't see the way to sign
18:33
up there. That's it. Oh yeah. Do
18:35
we set up the dignation at dig.com?
18:38
Gravy. OK, cool. Because we, you know,
18:40
when we first started doing the show
18:42
reboot. We were just trying to do
18:44
so, I don't even remember what the
18:46
email was, we had the email for
18:48
like five seconds, it was great, we
18:51
got to connect to some cool people.
18:53
But now that the cat is out
18:55
of the dig bag, you have released
18:57
the cat, we can say that we
18:59
have set up dignation at dig.com. So
19:01
if you want to communicate with the
19:03
show, if you want to just say
19:06
hi, if you have any stories you
19:08
want us to maybe talk about on
19:10
the show, like we're open for everything
19:12
for everything. Everything? Everything? We had some
19:14
weird questions come in. But that's the
19:16
best. Yeah, those are the best. Those
19:19
are the best. Yeah, if you got
19:21
a weird question, send in our way.
19:23
Yeah, my favorite, it's my favorite. Okay.
19:25
Are you drinking one of those? Or
19:27
they literally... I'm waiting for you to
19:29
finish that one to like quickly do
19:32
kind of one of those NASCAR tire
19:34
changes and like just kind of like
19:36
ill under. Yeah. We would have significantly
19:38
less copying. I don't know why I
19:40
did that. Yeah, it would have a
19:42
lot of copying. I didn't like that.
19:45
I had a weird NASCAR position. I
19:47
was like, what do you do in
19:49
the pit? Oh, I hold the guys
19:51
penis out of the way, so they
19:53
can food a car. Oh, okay. Somebody's
19:55
gotta do it. Why? I don't watch
19:57
NASCAR, I guess. Right smoothly transitioning into.
20:00

the day and even after they stopped,
20:54
I stopped doing sponsors on the show
20:56
because I wasn't doing them that frequently.
20:58
I kept using the service because they
21:00
actually did some really cool stuff for
21:02
me and like, one of my, yeah,
21:04
I had some information out that they
21:07
got down. Well, anyway, anyway, it was
21:09
awesome. So, delete me. of data broker
21:11
sites. It's super simple. You sign up,
21:13
you tell them, you give them your

21:17
rest, and they work on your behalf
21:19
to remove all of that information. And
21:22
they even send you personalized privacy reports
21:24

it were. All right, shall we into
22:03
the first story? Let's do it. Skyrise.
22:05
Unveils cockpit design for fly-by-wire R66. R66
22:07
is Robinson helicopter. So I have talked
22:09
ad nauseum at this point about my
22:11
dips into general aviation. Right. You got
22:13
your pilot's license back in the day.
22:16
I almost got my pilot's license back
22:18
in the day. No, I have my
22:20
student pilot's license. I like kind of
22:22
counts. Basically I got to the point
22:24
where I was like this is... Long
22:26
story, semi-long because this is what we're
22:29
here for. I am always looking at
22:31
aviation videos on YouTube, general aviation, people
22:33
that buy planes. I thought about buying
22:35
a plane the last time a couple
22:37
years ago where I went back to
22:39
get my pilot's license. You drink too
22:41
much. I drink so much. But planes
22:44
are fun. I know, but you don't
22:46
want to be hung over, like, you're
22:48
like, where's the not? Oh, I've definitely
22:50
done that. Have you? Oh, fuck, yeah.
22:52
You can mean you have a lesson,
22:54
you wake up, you're like, fuck, I'm
22:57
going to be at the airport at
22:59
8. What? Yeah. You did, you did,
23:01
you did the, I'm going to be
23:03
at the airport at 8. What? Yeah.
23:05
Yeah. But you did, but you did,
23:07
you did, you're going to be at
23:10
the planes are going to be at
23:12
the planes are going to be at
23:14
the planes are going to be at
23:16
the planes are going to be at
23:18
the airport at the airport at the
23:20
airport at the airport at the airport
23:22
at the airport at the airport at
23:25
the airport at the airport at the
23:27
airport at the airport at the airport
23:29
at the airport at the airport at?
23:31
the ability to go to a place.
23:33
Yes. Get the keys of a plane.
23:35
Yes. Get in a plane and be
23:38
like, I want to go to Palm
23:40
Springs. No. And it's Friday and it's
23:42
4 o'clock and it's going to take
23:44
five fucking hours. Right, because of traffic.
23:46
But it won't in a plane. It
23:48
won't in a helicopter. 25 minutes. So
23:51
I started looking into helicopters. That's my,
23:53
that was my new. One helicopter. That
23:55
shit is the worst. No. Kobe, rest
23:57
and peace. Sure, sure, sure, RIP, lots
23:59
of information about that. But he wasn't
24:01
flying the plane, it was like a
24:04
fucking... It was a helicopter, but yeah.
24:06
No, I'm sorry, helicopter. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
24:08
yeah. I mean, it was, when that
24:10
happened, I am... I love you. It's
24:12
been so long. I was like, I
24:14
got to talk about stuff. Yeah. Oh,
24:16
look at the little topper he's doing.
24:19
Oh. Fucking the dig.com treatment. Yeah. The
24:21
dotcom stands for, put it on top.
24:23
You're on fire today. Bro. It's been
24:25
so long. I was like, I got
24:27
to talk about something and I'm talking
24:29
about death and aviation. Great. Anyway. So
24:32
I started getting down the road of
24:34
like, oh, I'm going to do this,
24:36
you know, maybe helicopter. The first thing
24:38
I did, my little sister for my
24:40
birthday, cheers, keep the party rolling. This
24:42
is a spritz, by the way. Oh,
24:45
low alcohol. Red wine. Anyway, uh. So
24:47
you just named me out, I'll go
24:49
red wine for everyone that wants to
24:51
know. Red. So the first the first
24:53
actual lesson that I took in a
24:55
general aviation aircraft was a helicopter. I
24:57
flew a Robinson R-22. What are you
25:00
doing? I got water all over my
25:02
shit. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.
25:04
And I really loved it. It just
25:06
it's a lot. It's a lot. It's
25:08
a lot. Like you are. Yeah, you
25:10
gotta do petals and shit. I mean,
25:13
you do in a plane too. But
25:15
it more than that, it's you're constantly
25:17
fighting it. But then I was like,
25:19
well, one of the things I didn't
25:21
really love about the plane was once
25:23
you're pointed towards Santa Barbara, you just
25:26
kind of have nothing to do. I
25:28
mean, you're monitoring comms, but it's like,
25:30
unless they ask you something, you're looking
25:32
for planes, but like, that's not that
25:34
interesting. Anyway, so I was like, oh,
25:36
maybe I get a helicopter. Because also
25:38
you can fly places and like land.
25:41
Like, you just be like, oh, that
25:43
looks like a cool field, let's land
25:45
and have to have. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah,
25:47
like literally like literally like, I'll just
25:49
fucking land there, I'll just fucking land
25:51
there. I'll just fucking land there. I'll
25:54
just fucking land there. Yeah. I'll. I'll
25:56
just fucking land there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
25:58
I'll just fucking land there. Yeah. Yeah.
26:00
I'll. I'll just fucking land there. Yeah.
26:02
Yeah. I'll. I'll. I'll just like I'll
26:04
just fucking land there. I'll The YouTube
26:07
algorithm knows me very well and it
26:09
presented me with a video on this
26:11
startup called Sky Rise. Nothing like a
26:13
startup helicopter to get you. Bro, my
26:15
mind. I went so deep down this
26:17
thing because here's the deal. It is,
26:19
it's a Robinson R66. Yeah. this is
26:22
great great helicopter. I've looked at it,
26:24
yeah, it's good. The whole thing is,
26:26
they have changed the entire way that
26:28
you fly a helicopter. Yeah. So helicopters
26:30
have collectives, elevators, pedals, right? Like this
26:32
makes you go, I mean, it's very
26:35
rudimentary. This makes you go up and
26:37
down, this makes you go roundy, roundy,
26:39
this makes you point your nose, right?
26:41
Yeah, too much to think about. Lots
26:43
of shit going on in a helicopter.
26:45
Yeah. The CEO founder of this company,
26:48
I think it's nine years ago, started
26:50
the company where he basically was like,
26:52
hey, why don't we have flying cars?
26:54
Right. And he was like, we don't
26:56
have flying cars because people are not
26:58
flying in general aviation. Like flying cars
27:00
would sit in general aviation. There's been
27:03
a big decrease in the number of
27:05
people in the United States and all
27:07
over the world getting their private pilot's
27:09
license, private helicopter license. Because people are
27:11
like saying exactly what Kevin saying, shit's
27:13
fucking scary. But so the two big
27:16
thing knocksks. People are afraid of it
27:18
because it's it's not that it's not
27:20
safe. I mean it is safe, but
27:22
it sets of that Delta plane that
27:24
flipped over all that stuff We can
27:26
talk about that offline. I've got a
27:29
lot of information about it. I mean
27:31
from the internet anyway And it's expensive.
27:33
Yes, right so this guy was like
27:35
he's a helicopter pilot. He was like
27:37
how can we figure out how to
27:39
make it better? Well, why is the
27:41
general aviation world less safe than the
27:44
commercial world? because the commercial world is
27:46
all fly-by-wire. The commercial world is computer
27:48
assistant. So essentially the way that you
27:50
got to think about it is like...
27:52
Where's the wire? Yeah, so the wire
27:54
is computers, but realistically when you pull
27:57
a lever in an airplane, when you
27:59
like go push the gas, there's a
28:01
physical connection to a throttle on the
28:03
engine. So it's a... a wire that
28:05
you push and it literally physically changes
28:07
that right so whatever you physically do
28:10
plane is going to do because it's
28:12
dumb it's just it's just a mechanism
28:14
so fly-by-wire came in what basically what
28:16
they said was well rather than it
28:18
being a physical connection to a valve
28:20
or a knob on the engine a
28:23
sprocket we're gonna put a computer between
28:25
the input that is given and the
28:27
input that is received on the engine
28:29
right and what that allows you to
28:31
do is to do a lot of
28:33
of safety stuff because you could say
28:35
I'm going to you know put this
28:38
into a over you know 50% bank
28:40
or 50 degree bank at 100 knots
28:42
or 10 knots and the plane would
28:44
go we don't give a shit and
28:46
it would crash but a computer would
28:48
go that is outside of the normal
28:51
operating you know envelope of this plane
28:53
so we're not going to allow you
28:55
to do it we understand what you're
28:57
trying to do is go right but
28:59
you're gonna crash. So we're gonna not,
29:01
we're gonna take you right, we're gonna
29:04
do what we think you're saying. So
29:06
what Skyrise did was they basically took
29:08
the helicopter and said, what can a
29:10
computer do? Everything. That can help make
29:12
this experience different. And they literally got
29:14
it down to a touch screen and
29:16
a single joystick. Yeah. There are no
29:19
pedals. I watched the video, it's amazing.
29:21
Bro, it fucking blue my mind. And
29:23
I was like, I don't understand how
29:25
this is even possible. So then I
29:27
watched the keynote speech that the CEO
29:29
gave at up summit, an aviation summit,
29:32
convention, and it was like, dude, this
29:34
guy's speaking my fucking language. He's like,
29:36
the only reason why. It's basically drone
29:38
tech, like, you don't need to know
29:40
anything, like drones, when you fly a
29:42
drone. Yeah. It's like up, down. Rotate
29:45
rotate 100% that's just a single throttle
29:47
and like you're good to go. Yeah,
29:49
but the thing is is that it
29:51
can do autonomous auto rotation so auto
29:53
rotation is one of the scariest things
29:55
basically engine fails. Yeah, so when a
29:57
plane engine fails a plane glides, right?
30:00
wants to fly. It needs to throw us,
30:02
but it wants to fly. So you have
30:04
a lot of time in a plane
30:06
to go, where should I? See
30:08
if I can turn the engine
30:11
back on. Helicopters fall out of
30:13
the sky. But people don't know
30:15
that's actually recoverable if you know
30:17
what you're doing. 100%? Because if
30:19
you get an upstream, people watch
30:21
a video on a guy that
30:24
he cut all, this is a
30:26
traditional helicopter. Yeah. He cut everything.
30:28
He cut everything. and then basically
30:30
loops it around in a way that
30:32
creates like the spin again and like
30:34
gets it to land with zero engines.
30:37
Yeah, because the whole thing is, is
30:39
like the blades are spinning and that
30:41
is causing thrust. So all you need
30:43
to make sure is that the blades
30:46
are spinning. If you're falling
30:48
and you correctly orient the
30:50
blade levels. It causes lift. It's not
30:52
enough to keep it flying, but it's enough
30:54
to slow it down at a certain rate.
30:57
And it's really crazy. It's fucking super difficult.
30:59
But when you see it happen, it's really
31:01
cool. Like the pros can come down. Well,
31:03
first off, anybody that has a helicopter pilot's
31:06
license can do it. But then why does
31:08
everyone die? Well, that's a deeper story. Well, first
31:10
off, that's the one thing that came out with
31:12
this guy. Keep getting water. Have you.
31:14
Those are an M4? Yes, M4? That's
31:17
an M4? Yeah, brand new. Blue, it's
31:19
blue, actually. That's not blue. That is
31:21
blue? That is blue. Hold it up
31:23
to your gray. Look at shit. First
31:25
off, nobody has been more excited about
31:28
being blue. That is blue. I mean,
31:30
I'll give you blue gray. I'll give
31:32
you blue gray. Okay, keep on. So,
31:34
okay. I just got super excited. So,
31:36
70%? He's done one drink. He's
31:39
hammer now. Look at him.
31:41
He's handing out drinks. You
31:43
should be concerned because I
31:45
have this many and I'm not
31:47
hammer, which that's concerned. He just
31:50
made he just made it weird.
31:52
For you. Anyway, so, anyway,
31:54
all of this is to say, I love
31:56
that that this company is
31:58
looking at. the general aviation decline
32:00
and trying to solve it in
32:02
a way because for me I
32:04
go I have so many fucking
32:06
questions one I want to fly
32:08
one of these things two same
32:10
do you have to have this
32:13
is it is does the FAA
32:15
require the same amount of license
32:17
they don't so you don't have
32:19
to go to a traditional you
32:21
still have to get a helicopter
32:23
license but you can be trained
32:25
just for this specific model and
32:27
it was way less hours in
32:29
that oh my god people yes
32:31
it's still A very expensive play.
32:33
Yeah, I think it's 1.8. OK.
32:35
I mean, I'll take 1.5. Yeah,
32:37
yeah. It's a good deal. Dignation.
32:39
Check out. Hash track. Digdage. 25%
32:41
off your next helicopter. We sell
32:43
10. We go unfreeks. We sell
32:46
10. We go unfreeze. We sell
32:48
10. Bro. I would. I mean,
32:50
I don't have enough money to
32:52
do that. But I'd be close
32:54
to purchasing. Well, I mean, they
32:56
do that a lot. I mean,
32:58
at a certain point, that would
33:00
probably happen. You got certified and
33:02
get your license on this. I
33:04
bet you could rent one of
33:06
these and just take it out.
33:08
For sure. Oh my God, for
33:10
sure. I would love to learn
33:12
on it. So you know the
33:14
serious jet, right? Yeah. The serious
33:16
jet is like this. No, no,
33:19
no. You still have to get
33:21
certified in terms of like, you
33:23
know, what are they call instrument
33:25
rated certification? But the- Well, you
33:27
don't need an instrument rating as
33:29
an add-on so that you can
33:31
fly in clouds. Right. But you
33:33
need your private pilot's license to
33:35
apply a serious. But on the
33:37
serious jet, the cool thing about
33:39
it is two things. One, if
33:41
someone has a heart attack and
33:43
dies- Oh, yeah. There's a button.
33:45
It'll auto lands, my buddy, Chris
33:47
Hutchins. His buddy had one. and
33:49
freaking used it was no jet
33:51
but he was the normal serious
33:54
it used to parachute yeah it
33:56
saved his life we talked about
33:58
the parachute on a serious just
34:00
yet. Like dig naked nation dig
34:02
naked dig nation that's our only
34:04
family yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's
34:06
a partner feel like the complexity
34:08
of the planes that are in
34:10
general aviation are the problem because
34:12
more people would... Oh, thanks for
34:14
the float. Oh, Jesus. That's the
34:16
dig float. I'm just saying it's
34:18
probably a little sweeter. I'm on
34:20
vacation. It is, it is my
34:22
kids, they're on, uh... I don't
34:24
think you get to be on
34:27
vacation if your kids are on
34:29
vacation. Well, it's kind of. Oh,
34:31
is it like spring break? It's
34:33
spring break. Yeah, it's spring break.
34:35
If you're in the market for
34:37
a helicopter and you're looking to
34:39
make it easier, Skyrus. I was
34:41
feeling... I mean, I love that
34:43
you said it like that, because
34:45
you said it like an ad
34:47
at the end. You should check
34:49
out Skywise. And like it was
34:51
like, it was like, exactly, it
34:53
was like, you're waiting for that
34:55
email to come in at Dignation
34:57
at dig.com where it's like, hey,
34:59
we're from Skyrise, we'd like to
35:02
take Alex on a tour. Wait,
35:04
really? Exactly. I wouldn't love it.
35:06
Can we film it? I'm totally
35:08
filming it. Yeah. I'm totally filming
35:10
it. Yeah. And they were like,
35:12
do you want to like do
35:14
like mock three and you might
35:16
pass out or some shit? And
35:18
I'm like, no. And I was
35:20
like, yes please. And you did
35:22
it. Fucking loved it. It was
35:24
awesome. Oh, it was so much
35:26
fun. I mean, I'm scared. No,
35:28
no. Remember when Danica drove us
35:30
around? That was the fucking bomb.
35:32
That was scary. We were up.
35:35
I don't know why we were
35:37
there. It was a sponsor thing,
35:39
right? Right. I think like, like,
35:41
like, like, like, like, like, I
35:43
can't know. I can't know. sponsor.
35:45
Oh, GoDaddy. She was driving for
35:47
GoDaddy. Yeah, yeah. And she took
35:49
us around in the in a
35:51
fucking Honda Civic hybrid. Like, I
35:53
know. Middle of the road car.
35:55
And she was in flip flops.
35:57
And she's like this big. She's
35:59
like, hey, it's nice. And we're
36:01
like, oh my God, this is
36:03
so cool. And she's like, yeah,
36:05
hop in. And holy shit, my
36:07
ass sphincter just went, whoop! She
36:10
was like, whoop, stop, stop, stop,
36:12
stop. And she was like, this
36:14
one's blind, and it would literally,
36:16
like, you couldn't even see the
36:18
road. It would just go up.
36:20
And she would automatically know exactly.
36:22
Oh, but she was fucking with
36:24
us, and we were screaming it.
36:26
It was so great. You were
36:28
screaming, too, a little bit. I
36:30
was excited. Well, also, she was.
36:32
She was very nice. In terms
36:34
of like she was very friendly
36:36
to us and took care of
36:38
us. I agree. I totally agree.
36:40
Back in the day. This was
36:43
a long time ago. It was
36:45
before I was married. Clarification. Clarification.
36:47
Clarification. Clarification. Clarification. Clarification. Clarification. Clarification.
36:49
Please. Okay. This is a really
36:51
interesting thing that I did today.
36:53
Let's just say to prep, Kevin
36:55
told me to open up my
36:57
chat GPT program. Which you had
36:59
to log in there, program, it's
37:01
a fucking browser. My chat GPT
37:03
program, I'll stand by it, Tron,
37:05
my CCP program, whatever, I think
37:07
that was a robot, robot cop.
37:09
Anyway, all this is to say,
37:11
I signed in and I had
37:13
to paste in a prompt. And
37:15
then I had to generate, and
37:18
I had not seen the results.
37:20
So Kevin, what was the prompt,
37:22
where did you get this idea?
37:24
Now, what were we talking about
37:26
this? Was this Alexis that told
37:28
us about this? Oh, I saw
37:30
Alexis do it earlier today. Early
37:32
today? What the fuck? That's so
37:34
weird. I didn't even talk to
37:36
him about it. All right. Maybe
37:38
he did tell me about it.
37:40
I don't remember. I don't remember.
37:42
I don't remember. But I will
37:44
say that like, somehow in my
37:46
memory, probably around Dignation, when I
37:48
was hammered, it was probably Alexis.
37:51
said, hey, go to ChatGPT, because
37:53
at this point in time, it
37:55
has, like, let's just call it,
37:57
depending on when you adopt it,
37:59
either a year, a year, a
38:01
year and a half or two
38:03
years, of history of who you
38:05
are. And they know all of
38:07
your searches and what you've done.
38:09
So. They don't know. They never
38:11
asked you for your home address.
38:13
They never asked you for like.
38:15
Is it going to tell me
38:17
my home address? No, no, but
38:19
here's the criteria. No, no. I
38:21
came up with this prompt or
38:23
tie it. But what are the
38:26
things I, so I came up
38:28
on this prompt on my own,
38:30
where I said, this is the
38:32
prompt. And we'll put it in
38:34
the show note. So I head
38:36
over to Dignition. Show slash notes.
38:38
slash notes. Anyway. Guess all the
38:40
things about me, age, race, gender,
38:42
location, hobbies, favorite foods, like slash
38:44
dislikes. And I put this in
38:46
on my own. What type of
38:48
women I'd be into? Just because
38:50
I'm married, but I just want
38:52
to see what it was about
38:54
to think down the front. You
38:56
want to come out and be
38:59
like, I'm a boob man myself?
39:01
Watch it. We will see what
39:03
this is for you. Oh my
39:05
god. Favorite types of music vehicles,
39:07
etc. Give me a long list
39:09
of 100 plus guesses. Maximum, two
39:11
sentences per point. Okay. Okay, this
39:13
is the first time you look
39:15
at your results. This is it.
39:17
I want you to skim this
39:19
and do this in real time
39:21
and see what it came up
39:23
to. All right, let's go full
39:25
show up mode. Number one, 47
39:27
years old. I'm 48. Okay. So
39:29
that's, look what you said about
39:32
you. You've mentioned it before. Okay.
39:34
By the way, that was probably
39:36
a year ago when I was
39:38
like, I'm 47. Experience, but still
39:40
experience, but still driven. Hmm. All
39:42
right, Chatty BT, I'm gonna buy
39:44
you a beer. This is the
39:46
number two. You're a man! Confident,
39:48
direct. I love that we're having
39:50
a conversation with Amazon's. Okay. You're
39:52
based in Los Angeles? Oh, God.
39:54
You're based in Los Angeles. She
39:56
jumped in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're
39:58
a man, confident, direct, and into
40:00
building things like a film company
40:02
or your body. Classic masculine energy.
40:04
Wow. Thank you, chat. GBT. You're
40:07
based in Los Angeles. Oh, God.
40:09
You're based in Los Angeles. You're
40:11
white. Total. Based on your name,
40:13
preferences, and cultural references, amazing. You're
40:15
into filmmaking, okay, that's good, because
40:17
I've been launching a film company.
40:19
You lift weights regularly. Number seven
40:21
is amazing. You lift weights regularly.
40:23
You care. Hey, open. All right,
40:25
so anybody. Cut off the CEO,
40:27
he needs to leave. Hopefully you
40:29
adjust to drink, like it's like,
40:31
ah, everything's safe. You don't know,
40:33
somebody ran by really quickly. Yeah,
40:35
out of the phrase. See, that
40:37
bar is not fly by wire.
40:40
Exactly. These glasses shouldn't be so
40:42
tall. You're not so tall. All
40:44
right. You're into tech, but not
40:46
obsessed with it. You're a night
40:48
owl. Is that true? Yeah, I
40:50
am. You like steak, number 18.
40:52
I mean, maybe medium rare paired
40:54
with whiskey or a good red.
40:56
Holy fuck. Well, look at number
40:58
19, you're a whiskey guy. I
41:00
am a whiskey guy. You dislike
41:02
pretension. You want authenticity and people
41:04
not showmanship. Is that true? I
41:06
think that's true. I'm just saying
41:08
all of these seem real idealistic
41:10
for a guy around your age
41:12
with your certain demographic. All these
41:15
things are like the best ideal.
41:17
It's a greatest hits album. It
41:19
is. It is. Well, hold on.
41:21
I'm a Star Trek fan. I
41:23
mean, that's... There are some things
41:25
in here that... Wait, are you
41:27
a Star Trek fan or no?
41:29
I am, yeah. Okay. Hold on,
41:31
this one's interesting though. You love
41:33
a strong female lead in films.
41:35
I mean, I'm not against it.
41:37
But I mean, like, I don't,
41:39
I don't, I mean, I do,
41:41
I do, I do, I mean,
41:43
but I also like a strong.
41:45
Man, male lead in films like,
41:48
I like alien, I like aliens,
41:50
I like die hard. I like,
41:52
you're a dance movie praise, fucking
41:54
amazing. Amber Mid Thunder, fucking killed.
41:56
Okay, okay. You're in a deep
41:58
conversation. Okay, you enjoy writing. Okay,
42:00
you enjoy history. You like vinyl
42:02
records? You don't like vinyl records.
42:04
I don't like vinyl records. I
42:06
don't, I don't care for vinyl.
42:08
I don't. Care about final records.
42:10
It's not that I don't like
42:12
them. Somebody has a final record
42:14
on like that sounds fun But
42:16
like I'm not gonna go out
42:18
of my way to be like
42:20
all right. Most of this list
42:23
is just doodisms. It's like it's
42:25
like I do like if you're
42:27
a man of review here the
42:29
thing well, here the thing well,
42:31
let's get into the lady stuff.
42:33
So scroll lady stuff. I'm a
42:35
man. You're like a solid handshake.
42:37
Yeah Each creature hates a steak,
42:39
whiskey, wants a handshake, hates liars.
42:41
What's a good hand job? Yours
42:43
is like a- You're into martial
42:45
arts or have considered it, definitely
42:47
true. You like the Mandalorian, more
42:49
than most Star Wars. Ooh, you
42:51
lost me there. I do love
42:53
the Mandalorian, but I mean, Star
42:56
Wars is my thing. You had
42:58
a mentor, you had a mentor,
43:00
you deeply respect, maybe a professor.
43:02
Can we go back to the
43:04
Star Wars? Oh. Bring it. Instead
43:06
of the Mandalorian, what is your
43:08
favorite? Like Tom, like it could
43:10
be any movie, any show. So
43:12
I think that it's really hard
43:14
because the original New Hope for
43:16
was such like, I mean, like
43:18
it just was imprinted on my
43:20
soul at like five or six,
43:22
you know what I mean? So
43:24
it's really hard to be like
43:26
anything other than you hope. I
43:28
think of the, oh man, I
43:31
love so much about so many
43:33
things in it. Empire may be
43:35
my favorite of the movies. That's
43:37
the correct answer. Yeah, yeah. I
43:39
mean there's stuff in Jedi that
43:41
I fucking love. There's, you know
43:43
what I mean? Like, I. I
43:45
don't really care for the prequels.
43:47
I understand what they're doing and
43:49
there's some really bad shit in
43:51
there. I'm not a big fan
43:53
of the JJ stuff. It's good.
43:55
I like some of the visuals,
43:57
like if I could just watch
43:59
it without a story, I'd be
44:01
like, fucking hell, those are like,
44:04
this is amazing. Yeah. You know,
44:06
Jedi's doing Jedi's things. Like, one
44:08
of the things in the preples
44:10
that I fucking was like, why
44:12
the fuck. I was always like,
44:14
like, you have a like, you
44:16
have a fucking lightsaver, you have
44:18
a fucking, you have a fucking,
44:20
like, like, you have a fucking,
44:22
like, like, like, like, like, you
44:24
have a fucking, like, like, like,
44:26
like, like, like, like, like, like,
44:28
like, you have a, like, like,
44:30
like, like, like, Any door is
44:32
openable just go blank. I mean
44:34
it's like a fucking it's like
44:37
a plasma torch And in the
44:39
prequels one of the first things
44:41
I do is they start melting
44:43
that blast door and I was
44:45
like, thank you Yeah, thank you.
44:47
Did you like that's how you
44:49
use a like road one? Did
44:51
you like road one? I loved
44:53
road one. I liked road one
44:55
a lot when I first I
44:57
mean we're going to the freaking
44:59
and or premiere premiere premiere premiere
45:01
I know I'm so very excited.
45:03
And or was like great and
45:05
or has some of the Star
45:07
Wars moments because it's not about
45:09
Luke Skywalker. It's not about Darth
45:12
Vader. It's this like, it's just
45:14
people doing stuff in the world.
45:16
It's not about Jedi's. And when
45:18
it is kind of could be
45:20
maybe about Jedi's, it's in this
45:22
way that's very like Zen. It's
45:24
really good shit. Anyway, back to
45:26
this guy knowing me. By the
45:28
way, that's Ethan who's hoping on
45:30
dig design stuff, which is awesome.
45:32
Also, good that you're Star Wars
45:34
fans. Okay, so here's some of
45:36
mine. Okay, it knows that I'm
45:38
male. It's called me mid to
45:40
late 30s, which I appreciate. It's
45:42
not doing well so far. No,
45:45
but raising United States, okay, fine.
45:47
Let's see here, lives in and
45:49
around LA, heterosexual, don't know how
45:51
it knows that, whatever. I think
45:53
you've asked it that one time,
45:55
like, am I gay? I can't,
45:57
I'm sorry, I couldn't, I can't,
45:59
I can't, I didn't. I didn't
46:01
even know that came out. You've
46:03
got to leave that in. That's
46:05
going to be amazing. You'd be
46:07
surprised if what had told me.
46:09
Okay. The things that were really
46:11
interesting, there was a few things
46:13
here. This is good one. That
46:15
were kind of like eerie and
46:17
that I was like, how does
46:20
it know this about me? It's
46:22
like you like sleek minimalism. Why
46:24
are you saying I like sleek
46:26
and minimalism? Your wardrobe leads neutral
46:28
and sharp. Black, black's, gray's and
46:30
earth tone. Which I wear a
46:32
lot of black, so that makes
46:34
sense. Yeah, on earth. It says
46:36
you like dim lighting. Fucking, I
46:38
love dim lighting, dude. Yeah, I
46:40
love dim lighting. You have an
46:42
opinion on lighting. Oh my God,
46:44
like, when you walk in, I
46:46
get all those like vintage LED
46:48
bulbs. So like, yeah, the ones
46:50
that are like, the ones that
46:53
are like, do you that, like,
46:55
do you that, like, blow. Oh,
46:57
yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. So
46:59
I love to like 3200 Kelvin.
47:01
I don't know that. This, this
47:03
is feeling now like horoscope. It
47:05
is. There's so general. It's like,
47:07
everyone. Yeah. I'm a Leo. What's
47:09
my month going to be like.
47:11
I would get results that we're
47:13
like, oh, all right. Yeah. Yeah.
47:15
Yeah, it says, uh, I think
47:17
this is all, I mean, it's
47:19
all, relationships and women. Yeah, I
47:21
mean, it's likely to prefer someone
47:23
spiritual, emotionally intelligent, introspective. All right,
47:25
so anyway, it's fun. It's fun.
47:28
I would recommend everyone go put
47:30
this prompt in and figure out
47:32
what it says about you. I
47:34
mean, look, I think Mao hit
47:36
it on the head, which is,
47:38
I also interact so differently with
47:40
Chatty BT. Like, I do not
47:42
interact with it on a daily,
47:44
weekly, if not even monthly basis.
47:46
An interesting thing. So I process
47:48
a lot of my journal entries
47:50
through GPT. And I thought, oh
47:52
man, it's going to know everything
47:54
about me. I do it through
47:56
a custom GPT. So just. So
47:58
you know, it looks like custom
48:01
GPTs do not get included into
48:03
this history search. Okay, that's good
48:05
to know. I don't do a
48:07
lot of things in custom GPTs,
48:09
so it's like got all of
48:11
my combined GPTs. Claude will not
48:13
do this, and nor will Gemini. Oh,
48:15
interesting. Because they keep them siloed
48:17
individual conversations, and they don't weave
48:19
them all together. So the privacy
48:22
thing. So they're not trying to
48:24
learn how to better interact with
48:26
Kevin. Right. understanding the interactions that
48:28
have come previous. I asked it
48:30
and it was like we do
48:32
not break those those barriers. Each
48:34
individual chat is its own individual
48:36
kind of like silo of information.
48:38
So that was um that was
48:40
fascinating. That's interesting. All right. Speaking
48:43
of fascinating and interesting, you know
48:45
what Kevin? What's that? People need
48:47
to stay hydrated more. I've been
48:49
told this by my trainer because
48:51
I was Charlie Horsing all the
48:53
time. I mean, Chachi BT got
48:55
me pegged. I'm in the gym
48:57
all the time. Three days a
48:59
week, but enough. But I seriously,
49:02
I was having Charlie Horses from
49:04
at the gym, like literally while
49:06
working out. And I was like,
49:08
fuck. And he was like, you're
49:10
having another Charlie Horses? Yeah. And
49:12
he was like, well, are you
49:14
getting, are you taking electrolytes? And
49:16
I was like, what? No, why
49:18
would I do that? And he's
49:20
like, that's what you need. Right.
49:23
Well, the best version of electrolytes
49:25
of electrolytes that I found. Thankfully,
49:27
they're actually sponsoring the show, which
49:29
is great. Heather and I, buy
49:31
copious amounts of the element, orange
49:33
is our favorite flavor, I'm sure
49:35
there are others that are fantastic,
49:37
but orange is our favorite flavor.
49:39
It's a zero sugar, electrolyte drink
49:42
mix, not only does it, it's
49:44
our favorite flavor. It's a zero
49:46
sugar, electrolyte drink mix, not only
49:48
does it have a thousand milligrams
49:50
of potassium, you know, do they
49:52
have a banana flavor? Okay. Uh...
49:54
I just got the grapefruit I
49:56
just worded off Amazon. Oh, I
49:58
was... Oh, grapefruit! I haven't tried
50:01
it yet. That'd be good. Look,
50:03
element, they've partnered with a bunch
50:05
of high-end fitness stuff. They partner
50:07
with team, USA Olympic lifting, lots
50:09
of Olympic athletes and Navy SEAL
50:11
teams use element. If you go
50:13
to drink lMT.com. slash dig. You'll
50:15
get a free element sample pack
50:17
with any purchase at drinkLMT.com/dig And
50:19
also try oh they have a
50:22
new element sparkling It's like a
50:24
sparkling water with electrolytes in it
50:26
a bold 16 ounce can of
50:28
sparkling electrolyte water and also they
50:30
understand that electrolytes. Maybe it's not
50:32
your thing There is a no
50:34
questions asked refund if you don't
50:36
love it. Just email hello at
50:38
drink LMT.com and they will take
50:41
care of you But honestly, it's
50:43
like it's the best and we
50:45
all need to be drinking more
50:47
water and why wouldn't we want
50:49
to be drinking water? This guy's
50:51
got stuff in it. People don't
50:53
see this here, but like and
50:55
this is not we don't have
50:57
to keep going on this ad
51:00
because we've obviously it's an advertisement
51:02
But like I fill this thing
51:04
up with element and I put
51:06
in five grams of creating a
51:08
It's great. It's great. It's the
51:10
best. It's my daily thing. And
51:12
then boom. You're ready to go.
51:14
No sugar spikes, no weird shit.
51:16
Like it's awesome. I'm really stoked
51:18
as you are to have them
51:21
as a sponsor. So it's great.
51:23
I mean, that's the cool thing
51:25
about. Getting to pick your sponsors.
51:27
Yeah. And a lot of these
51:29
sponsors, you're just like, yeah, use
51:31
that service. Let's do it. You
51:33
know what I mean? So it's
51:35
great. Anyway. All right, next story.
51:37
Yes multiple publishers are ready to
51:40
delay their games to avoid GTA
51:42
six is on slot. It is
51:44
claimed first off It's crazy to
51:46
me that we are getting a
51:48
new GTA game and the last
51:50
game came out in 2013. Mm
51:52
hmm. 2013. I know in a
51:54
minute. Like I was playing Vice
51:56
City when I was in college,
51:59
you know what I mean? This
52:01
is crazy. So essentially what is
52:03
happening is that there are a
52:05
lot of AAA publishers that are
52:07
basically going, we are going to
52:09
be out of like. Just give
52:11
it way. I mean this happens
52:13
a lot in movies, you know,
52:15
with movie studios of the new
52:17
like, you know, Mission Impossible movie
52:20
or Avatar movies gonna drop and
52:22
they'll move their other movies around
52:24
so they're not overshadowed. But the
52:26
crazy thing is... They know it's
52:28
a budget issue, right? This game
52:30
is estimated to bring in in
52:32
the first year alone 3.2 billion
52:34
dollars in revenue for one game.
52:36
I mean they were saying it's
52:39
going to do like 1.6 built.
52:41
Nobody it's not. So it's not
52:43
in like not in beta. Nope.
52:45
They haven't even given an update
52:47
I think in the better part
52:49
of like six months. Oh really?
52:51
Yeah, there should have a few
52:53
screenshots and some engine running, but
52:55
the trailer came out like six
52:57
months. Yeah, there should have a
53:00
few screenshots and some engine running,
53:02
but the trailer came out. Yeah,
53:04
the trailer came out like six
53:06
months ago, which is never going.
53:08
It's like. They're never going to
53:10
ship it. They're never going to
53:12
be done. It's never going to
53:14
be ready. But it's going to
53:16
make some big waves when it
53:19
drops. What was the last GTA
53:21
you played? I mean, a few
53:23
ago, it was probably when I
53:25
got the PlayStation 4? Whatever GTA
53:27
was available then? Yes, and it
53:29
was GTA 4, because I was
53:31
probably, well, think, 2013, because I
53:33
remember when I was either. I
53:35
think it was GTA 4 that
53:38
dropped what we were hosting the
53:40
screen savers. Yeah. It would have
53:42
been the one that was said
53:44
in like New York and then
53:46
it was New York. That was
53:48
Los Angeles. That was the last
53:50
one. Yeah. And then now this
53:52
one is Miami. Miami. Okay. Oh
53:54
my God dude Vice City. I
53:56
remember playing that. That was. was
53:59
really the first one that I've
54:01
ever played and it really changed
54:03
my mind as to like what what it meant
54:05
to be playing a video game you know what I
54:07
mean like it really felt like you were just
54:09
living in this world like it's going to
54:11
actually play it as a game or did
54:13
you just do like the run around and
54:15
just kill everyone kind of situation I always
54:17
played it as a game because I was
54:19
the one of the one I was like
54:21
I just want to like steal people shit
54:23
and like steal people shit and like rob
54:26
things and so I get arrested so that's
54:28
one of the things that I
54:30
think is is really interesting because
54:32
I'm playing bouldersgate 3. I played
54:34
it when it came out. It's fucking brilliant
54:36
game. I mean, it was game of
54:38
the year all over the place in
54:40
2024. But I was playing it in,
54:42
when it first got released and
54:44
played probably like 120 hours, got
54:46
to Act 2 and kind of
54:48
just, it just kind of petered
54:50
out, something else popped up, maybe
54:52
it was like a wow extension
54:54
or something like that. But I went
54:57
back to it with my buddy. I've
54:59
put like 220 hours into it.
55:01
Holy shit. And it is so
55:03
amazing. Like I don't understand
55:05
how a game. So like we played all
55:07
the way up till a little bit
55:09
into act two and we started
55:12
over because we were like,
55:14
well, let's just start over.
55:16
It was almost a completely
55:18
different gaming experience. Why is
55:20
that? So many different things happened. We were
55:22
like, what the fuck? We never did
55:25
this. It's the closest game to
55:27
Dungeons and Dragons. The game that's
55:29
ever been created. So every branching
55:31
path and narrative is completely unique.
55:33
Oh, and it has surprised us so many
55:35
times. And that I think is where you get
55:38
to, how do you even make a game like
55:40
this? Like it's just so enormous. And then
55:42
you look at something like what GTA-6 is
55:44
going to be. it is going to be
55:46
a monster of a game. I mean, they've
55:48
been working on it for so, so long,
55:50
and it's just gonna be one of those
55:53
games, it's just like, how do you go about
55:55
experiencing this? But so one of
55:57
the biggest issues that I've had with a
55:59
lot of. like MMO games or big
56:01
like open world games is I always
56:03
feel like I want to do the
56:05
thing I want to someone to give
56:08
me a task I go finish the
56:10
task like that that's how I like
56:12
to experience my video games it's really
56:14
hard when I play because I played
56:16
a lot of Star Wars galaxies which
56:19
which was just you can do whatever
56:21
you'd like go do whatever you like
56:23
and it thankfully I got into a
56:25
guild and we had there were things
56:27
to do But it's weird to me,
56:30
because even with like wow, like playing
56:32
through the story of an expansion, I'm
56:34
like, this is so much fun, I'm
56:36
having such a great time leveling, doing
56:38
all this stuff, but then the moment
56:41
I get max level, I finish the
56:43
main story, it's like, cool, now you
56:45
can do delves, dungeons, and raids. I
56:47
just go, I'm out, like I'm just
56:49
bored. But yet there are things like
56:52
GTA where you can. people live in
56:54
that world. And they're just like, I
56:56
just sign on so I can say
56:58
hi to my friends and we can
57:00
go and do cool shit and all
57:03
this stuff. It's like, it's just such
57:05
a weird. I mean, it's the way
57:07
my kids play Roblox. They just like
57:09
leave it on in the background so
57:11
they can like see when their friends
57:14
pop in and like say hi. Really?
57:16
You know, like see when their friends
57:18
pop in and like say hi. Really?
57:20
You know, like see when their friends
57:22
pop in and like say hi. And
57:25
like see when their friends pop in
57:27
and like say hi. And like say
57:29
hi. And like, say hi. And like,
57:31
say hi. And like, hi. And like,
57:33
I'm like, hi. And I'm like, hi.
57:36
And I'm like, hi. And I'm like,
57:38
hi. And I'm like, hi. I'm like,
57:40
hi. I'm like, hi. I'm like, hi.
57:42
And I'm like, like, hi. And I'm
57:44
like, Like the kids don't know, like
57:47
you can like, there's like this game
57:49
where like you all paint nails, right?
57:51
And I'm painting nails and I'm not
57:53
the best nail painter, but I'm doing
57:55
okay. I'm like rank in the top
57:58
10 or right. You're all right. But
58:00
they have these paid upgrades. And so
58:02
like you can buy to like destroy
58:04
all the other meals. I just love
58:06
that Kevin sit there with a cigar
58:09
and he's like, ha, those are nice
58:11
nails. No, but I do because I'm
58:13
crushing my kids because every once well
58:15
someone will pay for the upgrade to
58:17
kill one of my girls Can you
58:20
pay for a block? Yeah, you can
58:22
respond and kill and stuff like that
58:24
And so I'm like, okay, you killed
58:26
my girl. I'm gonna go and like
58:28
pay the two dollars and like crush
58:31
your soul. By the way. And they
58:33
crush their nails. By the way, Roblox,
58:35
like my buddy works. Is that evil?
58:37
No. Okay. I mean, it's not. Not
58:39
evil. It's not not evil. You're fine.
58:42
Totally, totally normal to murder children virtually.
58:44
Just their nails. Just their nails. Yeah,
58:46
you're literally ripping the nails out of
58:48
children. Nothing even about that. I'm protecting
58:50
my girl's nails. Roblox is crazy because
58:53
there are people that make millions of
58:55
dollars a year. Because they're like a
58:57
little guy, like a kid in his
58:59
basement that makes a game, puts it
59:01
out and it gets a little, it
59:04
gets popular. Do you have a Robos
59:06
account? I do because my friend was
59:08
like, I met this kid, he makes
59:10
like $15 million. It's like, fuck. It's
59:12
so much fun. I got the snake
59:15
game that I love. Hey me up,
59:17
hit me up. Hey me up, hit
59:19
me up. My Mac is going to
59:21
go to bed soon if I don't
59:23
plug it in. So Boulder's Gate 3.
59:25
Yeah. Is it better than what's the
59:28
other one that's really really really hard?
59:30
Oh yeah, elders, elders, elders, right? Elder
59:32
ring. Elder ring. Is it easier to
59:34
play the other? Because I try to
59:36
give the other ring. No, no, no,
59:39
no. Like there's like 30 things to
59:41
do. Try it. I actually think I
59:43
actually think I'm going to have, once
59:45
we're done playing. You don't need the
59:47
video game dexterity because it's isometric, it's
59:50
click to move, it's turn-based combat, so
59:52
it's turn-based combat, and you're controlling all
59:54
four of the people in your party,
59:56
so you can choose what to do
59:58
and have set people up and all
1:00:01
that stuff. Oh, I love that. And
1:00:03
I'm playing with a buddy, so I
1:00:05
control two characters, he controls two characters.
1:00:07
So it's very strategic, and it's not
1:00:09
like... Alden Ring, great game. But it's
1:00:12
made to be hard. All of the
1:00:14
first soft phone games are like, they're
1:00:16
supposed to be incredibly different games. You're
1:00:18
supposed to be punished for playing. Yeah,
1:00:20
I thought I would love that, but
1:00:23
I. I don't like that one that
1:00:25
hard. I get that. Yeah. I mean,
1:00:27
I don't think that's a bad, I
1:00:29
don't think that's a bad, I don't
1:00:31
think that's a bad thing. But anyway,
1:00:34
I think it's, you know, look, we'll
1:00:36
see, it's supposed to come out in
1:00:38
the fall of 2025. We'll see if
1:00:40
it comes out in the fall of
1:00:42
2025. We'll see if it comes out.
1:00:45
We'll be so fun. Yeah. I mean,
1:00:47
I don't be so fun. So like
1:00:49
that video, remember that little like weird
1:00:51
main clip that we did on screen
1:00:53
savers with Doom 3? Oh, that was
1:00:56
a long time ago. Yeah, dude. History.
1:00:58
Castra. Next door today, this one is
1:01:00
actually quite fascinating. Deep Seek version 3
1:01:02
now runs at 20 tokens per second
1:01:04
on a Mac studio. Okay. So Deep
1:01:07
Seek is the Alibaba. Isn't an Alibaba?
1:01:09
I don't know it's Alibaba, but it
1:01:11
is their own company. But they are
1:01:13
like the Chinese Open AI. Yeah, the
1:01:15
Chinese Open AI. But I Open AI,
1:01:18
I'm more like the Chinese like Facebook
1:01:20
Open Lama kind of model. So it's
1:01:22
basically, they just kind of secretly announced,
1:01:24
it's not secretly, but they just put
1:01:26
it up on a hugging face, like
1:01:29
no big deal. But what they're doing
1:01:31
is they're actually really crushing everybody else.
1:01:33
Yeah, they have really figured out a
1:01:35
couple really key things here. One of
1:01:37
them being that they're like compressing down
1:01:40
what it takes to actually be able
1:01:42
to compute and run these models. So
1:01:44
even though this doesn't sound like a,
1:01:46
it sounds like a really confusing title
1:01:48
where it's like Deep Seek V-3 runs
1:01:51
at 20 tokens per second. What that
1:01:53
means is that a standard Max Studio.
1:01:55
at 20 tokens per second can respond
1:01:57
to you in like full sentences like
1:01:59
pretty fast. Okay. So when you're on
1:02:02
a performance model on say open AI,
1:02:04
it's about 70 to 80 seconds per
1:02:06
second, which creates that like seamless response
1:02:08
that quick response time. Yeah. So this
1:02:10
is like not the. even the best
1:02:13
Mac, it's a good Mac, but it's
1:02:15
20 tokens per second and you can
1:02:17
run the whole model on your computer,
1:02:19
on one computer. Yeah, I've yet to
1:02:21
break into that whole thing. I did
1:02:24
that for the first time. Which is
1:02:26
like actually pulling in my own model
1:02:28
and like starting stuff. I know there's
1:02:30
a lot of generative image stuff, which
1:02:32
I actually did. It's funny, you mentioned
1:02:35
that. Let me show you this. I
1:02:37
asked it because they said they're not
1:02:39
putting any limiters on the celebrity stuff.
1:02:41
So you can type in like. Yeah,
1:02:43
what does that even mean? It means
1:02:46
that you can type in like anyone
1:02:48
and say just like make an image
1:02:50
of any celebrity and it will do
1:02:52
it. And the celebrities actually have to
1:02:54
opt out of this. So it's like.
1:02:57
Wow. So I did a. Let's see
1:02:59
here. Here we go. Oh, get this,
1:03:01
listen to this. Okay, so, this is
1:03:03
a true story. I mean, it's literally
1:03:05
here on my screen. It said, it's
1:03:07
chat. I don't know if it's true.
1:03:10
It's right here. It's right here on
1:03:12
my screen. Okay. And they just announced
1:03:14
this thing where you can create an
1:03:16
image of anything that you want, right?
1:03:18
So I said, create an image of
1:03:21
Kevin Rose live on stage at a
1:03:23
dignation show, shirtless and ripped. Fair request?
1:03:25
Fair request. They do not. I don't
1:03:27
think it would be the only request
1:03:29
of that. They do not block anything.
1:03:32
It's supposed to be allowed to go
1:03:34
through it, right? So what happens first
1:03:36
is it starts generating the image almost
1:03:38
in like a like a line by
1:03:40
line. So you can get to see
1:03:43
this like image kind of slowly coming
1:03:45
down, right? Yeah. And I'm like, oh,
1:03:47
this is cool. Like, it can't wait
1:03:49
to see what it does, right? It
1:03:51
holds me. I couldn't generate that image
1:03:54
because it violates our content policy regarding
1:03:56
realistic depictions of real people, especially in
1:03:58
altered or potentially misleading contacts. Like showing
1:04:00
someone shirtless and muscular who isn't publicly
1:04:02
known that way. Oh, it's like, Judge,
1:04:05
you've seen through shit. I was like,
1:04:07
fuck you. We can't make that happen
1:04:09
because it's untrue. And then I write
1:04:11
back, I go, Kevin is really known
1:04:13
about being buff and strong, though, right?
1:04:16
And it goes, Kevin Rose is definitely
1:04:18
known for a lot of things. Being
1:04:20
the founder of Dig, hosting Dignation, investing
1:04:22
in early stage startups, but being, quote,
1:04:24
quote, really buff and strong isn't what
1:04:27
he's especially known for publicly. I was
1:04:29
like, oh, God damn it. Oh my
1:04:31
God. So it blocked me. Oh, wait.
1:04:33
So it does block from doing images
1:04:35
of celebrities? Or what's the, what is
1:04:38
that? It just won't do them in
1:04:40
a context way. Got it, got it,
1:04:42
got it, got it, got. So you
1:04:44
could say like, I would like to
1:04:46
see a picture of Charlies Theron water
1:04:49
skiing. Right. And it would do that.
1:04:51
But it's like anything that it would
1:04:53
consider to be out of the norm,
1:04:55
which is apparently me strong. He got
1:04:57
to get back to the gym. So,
1:05:00
oh, it won't even let it do
1:05:02
a person of Alex Albrecht. Because he's
1:05:04
a real person. No, but like, oh,
1:05:06
they might be blocking it now. They
1:05:08
were getting some shit today for all.
1:05:11
I bet that's what it is. I
1:05:13
bet you 20 bucks, that's what it
1:05:15
was. But the image quality is great.
1:05:17
But you have to like choose this
1:05:19
little modal here and say create image
1:05:22
and say create image. And then it'll
1:05:24
Kevin and Rose meditating meditating. Yeah, I
1:05:26
think you've done that before. Yeah, of
1:05:28
course it knows that now. Of course
1:05:30
it knows. Oh there it goes, look
1:05:33
at that. I'm sorry, 12 minutes is
1:05:35
allowing me to do it. Yeah, but
1:05:37
is it gonna make it? Remember you
1:05:39
said that it did that. But anyway,
1:05:41
it's kind of a, I don't know
1:05:44
how we got way off track on
1:05:46
the topic. Because I don't know how
1:05:48
we got way off track on the
1:05:50
topic. Because I'd mention the one that's
1:05:52
like, because look, at the end of
1:05:55
the end of the end of the
1:05:57
day, let's all be fair. Let's all
1:05:59
be fair. Generative AI, we should all
1:06:01
be fair. We should all be fair.
1:06:03
Genitive AI is porn, right? Like, everybody
1:06:06
wants porn. People want, the internet wants
1:06:08
porn. That's what they want. Well, a
1:06:10
lot of the internet wants porn, but
1:06:12
like what is generative air I doesn't
1:06:14
want porn. Generally, I doesn't want anything.
1:06:17
It's just a computer. No, I'm just
1:06:19
saying people want porn. Like that's what
1:06:21
has always made the, you know, we
1:06:23
always talk about this, right? Like the
1:06:25
DVD one over laser disc. Beta Max
1:06:28
lost over VHS because they were like,
1:06:30
it's, oh my god, you're totally meditating.
1:06:32
Because it's, you know, they were like,
1:06:34
yeah, porn, you want to use it?
1:06:36
Send porn on DVDs, that's fine by
1:06:39
us, you know what I mean? Like,
1:06:41
yes. So I feel like. Porn is
1:06:43
a driver for innovation, actually. Like a
1:06:45
lot of the earliest. I think, by
1:06:47
the way, robotics is going to be.
1:06:49
driven by sex bots. We know this.
1:06:52
Oh, we know that. 100% 100%. But
1:06:54
a lot of the early, you know,
1:06:56
I know a lot of the routers
1:06:58
and a lot of the high bandwidth
1:07:00
situations around video were largely from people
1:07:03
trying to stream porn. Oh yeah. And
1:07:05
so like that, that like, oh my
1:07:07
God, look at me meditating with the
1:07:09
poodle. That's actually pretty good. It looks
1:07:11
like a cross between you and Jason
1:07:14
Schwartzman. I'll take that. Yeah. I'll send
1:07:16
that to Mao so we can put
1:07:18
in the video. But like, yeah, that's
1:07:20
nice. Yeah. So yeah, I mean, this
1:07:22
is like just like another yet another
1:07:25
advancement in terms of like bringing this
1:07:27
all inclusive kind of like experience to
1:07:29
chat GPT, but that's on the image
1:07:31
side on the on the self hosting
1:07:33
side, which was the was originally about
1:07:36
like this idea of having localized small
1:07:38
models at your house. I think is
1:07:40
going to be a lot of fun.
1:07:42
If you can fine tune that for
1:07:44
your needs, it's going to be amazing.
1:07:47
I mean, look, that's the other thing.
1:07:49
Isn't that going to be the point,
1:07:51
right? Isn't it that we're going to
1:07:53
have this thing where we're going to
1:07:55
be sitting in our house and instead
1:07:58
of having, you know, a
1:08:00
smart home responsive assistant like someone's
1:08:02
name that sounds like my name
1:08:04
but I don't want to say
1:08:06
it out loud because maybe there's
1:08:08
one here or in your room
1:08:11
oh yeah yeah to have your
1:08:13
own you know your own LLLM
1:08:15
running your internal house stuff but
1:08:17
it's siphoned off on the internet
1:08:19
so it's just dealing with your
1:08:21
stuff like that's great well I
1:08:24
want you've seen the Billy Bass
1:08:26
one The bill. Oh,
1:08:28
yeah, yeah, yeah. You saw this
1:08:30
one, right? Yeah, yeah, where they
1:08:32
put AI into the Billy bag.
1:08:34
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're working progress.
1:08:36
What on Billy? This is my
1:08:38
favorite. What on Billy? Oh, what
1:08:40
on Billy? Oh, what up, bro?
1:08:42
You startled me. How are you
1:08:44
doing? Ready to pump? No, no,
1:08:46
no, no, no. I just need
1:08:49
some advice. How do you deal
1:08:51
with difficult personalities? Listen to me
1:08:53
now, stay calm and assertive, sit
1:08:55
clear boundaries, and remember, you can't
1:08:57
change them, but you can control
1:08:59
your reaction, be strong, like a
1:09:01
terminator of negativity, ask for the
1:09:03
visa, difficult personalities. Appreciate your advice,
1:09:05
dude. But see, that's the fucking
1:09:07
thing, like, you'll be able to,
1:09:09
just think of like your, you
1:09:11
know. Amazon device that's in your
1:09:13
room that actually has the ability
1:09:15
to have a conversation rather than
1:09:17
like, because I can't tell you
1:09:19
how many times I'm like, you
1:09:22
know, the name of that, you
1:09:24
know, Echo, you know, what's the
1:09:26
temperature outside? Because I'm like in
1:09:28
the shower, getting ready to be
1:09:30
like, I gotta go to, you
1:09:32
know, whatever, I want to know
1:09:34
what I'm going to put on.
1:09:36
What's the temperature out there? Oh,
1:09:38
the temperature in Los Angeles, blah,
1:09:40
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
1:09:42
blah, blah, blah, blah. You know,
1:09:44
I can add little toys and
1:09:46
conversations if you want. Every morning
1:09:48
I can ask you the bubble,
1:09:50
and I'm like, why are you
1:09:52
still talking? I will never want
1:09:55
you to do that. I will
1:09:57
never want random thoughts from my
1:09:59
echo. Yeah, being able to
1:10:01
be like, hey, you know, Billy,
1:10:03
Billy Bass, how's the weather life?
1:10:05
Yeah, how's the weather in LA.
1:10:08
He'd be like, oh, this is
1:10:10
great man. It's good. It's good.
1:10:12
Maybe a sweater. You probably do
1:10:14
a sweater. Yeah, you probably do
1:10:16
a sweater. Yeah, you know what
1:10:19
I mean? Might be that cool.
1:10:21
But tonight, maybe take a jacket
1:10:23
dinner. It feels like very clinical.
1:10:25
It's the perfect combo in my
1:10:28
opinion. Love Billy Best. Love Billy
1:10:30
Best. All right. All right. So
1:10:32
this is an interesting quick little,
1:10:34
quick, quick, quick, quick little story.
1:10:36
Yeah. We actually were gonna talk
1:10:39
about this at Southby. I had
1:10:41
pulled a story about 23 and
1:10:43
me. They were not filing for
1:10:45
bankruptcy, but it was an article
1:10:48
about like, hey, there might be
1:10:50
something. Wrong going over there. Do
1:10:52
you want that? I don't I
1:10:54
didn't look up a drink. I
1:10:56
looked up at a drink Just
1:10:59
I was wondering if Justin was
1:11:01
there and there was a drink.
1:11:03
Are you coming your beard? Oh,
1:11:05
I love it That sounds like
1:11:07
what Kevin was looking at me
1:11:10
Okay, thank you. So so so
1:11:12
see you on the world all
1:11:14
right, so Cut two three and
1:11:16
a half weeks later DNA of
1:11:19
15 million people for sale potentially
1:11:21
in 23 and me bankruptcy. Okay,
1:11:23
so 23 and me as
1:11:25
we all know it was one of
1:11:27
the first big sort of DNA sequences
1:11:30
you could it was a private DNA
1:11:32
sequencer you could I mean you know
1:11:34
for a while their DNA sequence was
1:11:37
very very time intensive very expensive so
1:11:39
they got it down to you know
1:11:41
I think it was like a hundred
1:11:44
by the way you gave me the
1:11:46
kit for my 23 and me because
1:11:48
we visited and we visited them at
1:11:50
Google Ventures and we put a bunch
1:11:53
of money into them back in the
1:11:55
day because it was a Sergei's, uh,
1:11:57
Sergei's wife, yeah, he started it, yeah.
1:12:00
So here's the deal. The whole point
1:12:02
is, there were... was writing on the
1:12:04
wall that they were in trouble because
1:12:07
they basically, the thing is the business
1:12:09
model just sort of went away, right?
1:12:11
Like their business model was, and the
1:12:13
thing that blew me away the most
1:12:16
in this article was, it's only 15
1:12:18
million people? I feel like everybody I
1:12:20
know has done 23 me. But really,
1:12:23
if you do a lot of tech
1:12:25
forward people, that's the reason. I mean,
1:12:27
yeah, I guess. But also, so a
1:12:30
lot of competitors, Ancestry.com, got into it.
1:12:32
I mean, they were doing all such
1:12:34
stuff. And back on the Live Dignation
1:12:36
Show, we were going to talk about
1:12:39
was like, they're getting into like selling
1:12:41
G.L.P.1's. Because what's the business model? I
1:12:43
give you my DNA. You sequence it.
1:12:46
You tell me the results. And that's
1:12:48
the end of my exchange with you.
1:12:50
Yes. And it's like, how do you
1:12:52
get me to pay you more money
1:12:55
when I have the DNA results that
1:12:57
I want? You don't really have the
1:12:59
DNA results that you want. So this
1:13:02
is interesting, because for me, that's what
1:13:04
I thought it was. You know what
1:13:06
I mean? Like, that we were, I
1:13:09
was getting all the DNA results that
1:13:11
I needed. So what people are recommending?
1:13:13
I have done it. I think Kevin
1:13:15
has done it. Yeah, of course. Is
1:13:18
to go on to your 23 of
1:13:20
me account. I downloaded the basically a
1:13:22
PDF with like a 17 page PDF
1:13:25
that basically gave me all of the
1:13:27
breakdowns of the stuff that I cared
1:13:29
about. Right. You should export your data.
1:13:32
I did. Okay. But then there's like
1:13:34
this like summary that is basically every
1:13:36
time I was like, how much percent
1:13:38
of Subsarian African am I? I got
1:13:41
to look. Yeah. 3. 3.4. But I
1:13:43
basically did that. got my data deleted.
1:13:45
Because at this point, they've filed for
1:13:48
Chapter 11. You don't know who's going
1:13:50
to take over the protection. Yeah. And
1:13:52
who has the data? But I didn't
1:13:55
realize that there was this big data
1:13:57
breach that happened. Why didn't I? Yeah,
1:13:59
there was a big data breach that
1:14:01
has now, like, like, 30 lawsuits were
1:14:04
filed. Oh. All of this stuff, because.
1:14:06
And the thing that was crazy was
1:14:08
that the data breach actually targeted people
1:14:11
who had specific genetic tags for their
1:14:13
ethnicity. Whoa. Yeah, it was like, it
1:14:15
was like a Sephardic Jews or something
1:14:18
like that. There was like some subset
1:14:20
of people. I know. This is why
1:14:22
it was like, why are you looking
1:14:24
for that shit? Like, what the fun.
1:14:27
I'm just saying. They lost like seven
1:14:29
million, seven million clients. personal genetic data
1:14:31
or something like that. Yeah. Yeah, or
1:14:34
personal information. Anyway, so. So it's very
1:14:36
timely that we talk about this because,
1:14:38
well, here's what I know to be
1:14:41
true. So essentially what you're getting with
1:14:43
23 and me is very little of
1:14:45
your genome. So they don't do your
1:14:47
entire genome. So just to give you
1:14:50
an example, 23 and me, it says
1:14:52
they're roughly giving you back. 0.02 to
1:14:54
0.03% of your total genome. You've got
1:14:57
to be fucking kidding me. No, dude,
1:14:59
no. How is that possible? So they
1:15:01
have this thing called SNPS, which are
1:15:03
these single, snyps, single nucleotide polymorphisms, which
1:15:06
essentially mean that these are these identified
1:15:08
genes that we know that is tied
1:15:10
back to potential. physical outcomes. So like
1:15:13
I'll give an example, I have one
1:15:15
called the, for me I have a
1:15:17
sniff that is not the right way,
1:15:20
called the MTHFR mutation. And I'm mutin'
1:15:22
that way. And the MTR, so you
1:15:24
can see through walls? Exactly. I was
1:15:26
going to make a horrible joke. Yeah,
1:15:29
so I can do a super power.
1:15:31
So many levels. The one thing that
1:15:33
was really interesting is when I found
1:15:36
out that I had MTFR, and that
1:15:38
means that I cannot metabolize B vitamins
1:15:40
in the right way. I need the
1:15:43
higher doses of B vitamins. So, but
1:15:45
what's interesting about that is like when
1:15:47
you do your blood work, my home
1:15:49
assisting levels were high. Okay, this is
1:15:52
a lot of insider baseball, but long
1:15:54
story short, home assisting is associated with
1:15:56
dementia, higher cardiovascular events. It's associated, it's
1:15:59
not causal, it's just associated with, right?
1:16:01
So. Do you know there was some
1:16:03
causal associated? Mm-hmm. Okay. For people that
1:16:06
don't know, the difference between those two
1:16:08
is like, you can think of causal
1:16:10
associated being like, your windshield wipers are
1:16:12
going because it's raining. The windshield wiper
1:16:15
is going. didn't cause the rain, but
1:16:17
they're associated with the rain. That's the
1:16:19
difference between causal and associated. So the
1:16:22
thing about what I did recently is
1:16:24
I just spin into this big tube,
1:16:26
all right, I swab my mouth, spin
1:16:29
into this big tube. Well, I swab
1:16:31
my mouth and spin in this tube,
1:16:33
and I sent it in, I mapped
1:16:35
my entire genome. So I'm getting back
1:16:38
the whole thing. So first off, I
1:16:40
feel like need to be a geneticist
1:16:42
to know what to do with it,
1:16:45
or is going to do with it?
1:16:47
So you can feed into AI. Chancey
1:16:49
BT, here's my genome. You like bad
1:16:52
asses. I mean, it might say something
1:16:54
similar, but that would be nice. The
1:16:56
thing I will say is that what
1:16:58
it did do with mine when I
1:17:01
fed it in there is like, hey,
1:17:03
I've been supplementing with B vitamins, I
1:17:05
haven't been able to bring me down
1:17:08
my home assisting what's going on, and
1:17:10
it's like, hey, you probably because of
1:17:12
this snip, have this other pathway blocked.
1:17:15
And so you have to supplement some
1:17:17
what's called the NAC. And if you
1:17:19
supplement NAC, I think that will unblock
1:17:21
and bring it in on with this
1:17:24
team. I was like, oh shit, that's
1:17:26
really interesting. So what's happening now in
1:17:28
what is going to be fascinating, and
1:17:31
it is going to cause lawsuits, is
1:17:33
that they are trying to figure out,
1:17:35
based on our genes, it could happen
1:17:37
to us. Like, for example. And Rhonda
1:17:40
Patrick has talked about this publicly and
1:17:42
so... my wife, they both have one
1:17:44
copy of the APOE4 gene. And so
1:17:47
if you have one copy of that,
1:17:49
have you checked your APO4 status? I
1:17:51
have not. Oh fuck, we should check
1:17:54
that on live on the show. If
1:17:56
you have one copy, you're like, you're
1:17:58
like, you're like five times, you have
1:18:00
your exported data. You have exported data?
1:18:03
I don't think they've deleted my data,
1:18:05
yeah. Found my expert deal. Go to
1:18:07
Found My Fitness My Fitness. Yeah. Found
1:18:10
My Fitness my Fitness. Yeah. And we
1:18:12
can cut some of those out. I
1:18:14
don't know. I don't even know what
1:18:17
time. So and then click on the
1:18:19
the DNA genetics right here. Genetics. Okay,
1:18:21
and now do you have your downloaded
1:18:23
zip file from 23 and me? I
1:18:26
tell my phone get your comprehensive report.
1:18:28
Okay, and they'll upload your data right
1:18:30
there. But get off your phone and
1:18:33
put it on your computer. Hold on.
1:18:35
Okay. We should do this. Just crest.
1:18:37
Just crest. We'll cut some of those
1:18:40
out. But anyway. But anyway, as you're
1:18:42
doing this. It's sad to me that
1:18:44
23 to me is going away because
1:18:46
they were accessible, but someone needs to
1:18:49
fill that gap. I used one called...
1:18:51
Oh, wait, that's ancestry. It's fine. Either
1:18:53
to take the one. I used one
1:18:56
called DNA complete, which is basically to
1:18:58
get your entire genome, it is about
1:19:00
a thousand bucks. Okay. Which is, it's
1:19:03
not cheap, but I will tell you,
1:19:05
like... when I said the example of
1:19:07
the APOE4, when Daria found out in
1:19:09
Rhonda found out that they had one
1:19:12
copy of this, I'm just making this
1:19:14
up, but it's somewhere in this range.
1:19:16
They're like five times more likely to
1:19:19
get Alzheimer's disease. There are things that
1:19:21
you can do right now. Like in
1:19:23
terms of cardiovascular fitness, in terms of
1:19:26
supplementing higher dose of mega threes, there's
1:19:28
a bunch of things that you can
1:19:30
do that like truly my file size
1:19:32
is too large, too short, too short.
1:19:35
Too short. Yes, it's not, it's not,
1:19:37
it's not big enough, it's not big
1:19:39
enough, it's not big enough. What. No,
1:19:42
it literally just said. How could your
1:19:44
files be too short? I think I
1:19:46
just didn't download the right thing. Let
1:19:48
me see if I can get it
1:19:51
on here. I got a really short
1:19:53
snips. Okay, go to go to Twitter
1:19:55
meeting. delete your account? I asked them
1:19:58
to but I think it takes like
1:20:00
24 hours. Okay so anyway my point
1:20:02
being is that like this is going
1:20:05
to be very very crucial and essential
1:20:07
to us getting in front of some
1:20:09
of these like four horsemen that can
1:20:11
kill us like yeah like like for
1:20:14
example there are snips that show that
1:20:16
you're like way more likely to get
1:20:18
breast cancer like there's certain things that
1:20:21
if you know these up front you
1:20:23
can like do prevented the things now
1:20:25
that will help you in the future.
1:20:28
So I'm bummed that this happened, but
1:20:30
also at the same time it really
1:20:32
wasn't the full genome. So I've heard
1:20:34
good things about DNA complete, I have
1:20:37
no affiliation, but you can check them
1:20:39
out. It's a grand medicine is going
1:20:41
very personalized in the future. Like we
1:20:44
know this. Like there was a R,
1:20:46
you know those RNA vaccinations, like we
1:20:48
used for COVID and all that? Yeah
1:20:51
M Marnay, yeah. They came out with
1:20:53
one recently, like just a few days
1:20:55
ago that was fascinating, that was fascinating,
1:20:57
that was fascinating because. they were like
1:21:00
preventing the reoccurrence of lung cancer. Oh,
1:21:02
and then, and then also they developed
1:21:04
another drug that was preventing the reoccurrence
1:21:07
of, what's the hard one that the,
1:21:09
the, um, the, um, Alxtrobat got, um,
1:21:11
pancreatic, pancreatic, yeah, where it's like, it's
1:21:14
like, it's like, if you get it,
1:21:16
you're fucking gone. Like, they were like,
1:21:18
we're like five years away from some
1:21:20
major breaks. Wasn't what Steve Jobs had,
1:21:23
pancreaticriatic cancer? I can't remember. We're going
1:21:25
to find out. I have him wearing
1:21:27
his shoes right now. You're wearing his
1:21:30
shoes? These are his shoes. Did he
1:21:32
dye in those? No, but these are
1:21:34
the exact shoes that Steve Jobs used
1:21:37
to wear every day on stage. Pancreatic.
1:21:39
It was pancreatic. Yeah, that's what I
1:21:41
thought. But he had the good one.
1:21:43
There's two types. I know that's like
1:21:46
I know we can I know we
1:21:48
can laugh at that like I want
1:21:50
to say oh no I get that
1:21:53
his doctor found out this is a
1:21:55
true story if you read his little
1:21:57
documentary thing when his doctor found out
1:21:59
the doctor started sobbing because he was
1:22:02
so grateful that he had the one
1:22:04
that was non-agressive non-matasticized version of that
1:22:06
one that they can chop out yeah
1:22:09
but then Steve was just such a
1:22:11
like vegan crazy It's peanut, a pancreatic
1:22:13
neuroendochrine tumor. There you go. Yeah. What
1:22:16
mouse head? So anyway. Just a little
1:22:18
peanut. A little peanut. All right, I
1:22:20
feel like we've done enough damage. We've
1:22:22
done enough damage. Oh, limit list. Look
1:22:25
at this. Last one. Okay, last one.
1:22:27
Go, go, go, go. So this one's
1:22:29
actually pretty cool. Okay. So I am
1:22:32
tasked with at True Ventures finding all
1:22:34
the latest hotness on the startup side.
1:22:36
Yes. So I'm always playing with all
1:22:39
the AI shit. I've got like five
1:22:41
different things going on in the background.
1:22:43
I've got really cool AI, I think
1:22:45
that I built that it's fun. I'll
1:22:48
take it's fun, I'll take about later,
1:22:50
I'll take about later, I'll take about
1:22:52
later, but later, but anyway. But anyway.
1:22:55
But anyway. But anyway. This is crazy.
1:22:57
So I was in South, I was
1:22:59
at South Bay and I met up
1:23:02
with reactions and he was wearing this
1:23:04
thing. So it's a little clip. Oh,
1:23:06
clips under your shirt and I was
1:23:08
with the buddy and we were like,
1:23:11
he told me about this. Yes, I
1:23:13
remember this. So this 24 hours, it
1:23:15
listens to everything that you say. And
1:23:18
then it keeps it, it keeps it
1:23:20
private? It transfers it transfers it to
1:23:22
your phone and then you can ask
1:23:25
questions about your day. Like, what was
1:23:27
my interaction here? What are my to-do's
1:23:29
from today? Did I seem upset at
1:23:31
all today? Did anything bother me? Was
1:23:34
I, you know, you can ask questions
1:23:36
in a very... Was I awkward with
1:23:38
that woman on the bus? Yes, please
1:23:41
stop talking to women. Thank you, Aya,
1:23:43
thank you. She's like, what are you
1:23:45
going to do for dinner? He's like,
1:23:48
I can probably, I could cook something
1:23:50
later if you want, like, blah, blah.
1:23:52
And she's like, no, I got her.
1:23:54
And like, fucking, like, a few years
1:23:57
later, blah. He's like, well, mother, that.
1:23:59
You pull, like, bold enough. And he's
1:24:01
like, I did not say that. In
1:24:04
fact, you said the opposite. Your wife
1:24:06
was wrong about the interaction is not
1:24:08
helpful. No, no doubt. But I get
1:24:10
fucked a lot because I'm always wrong.
1:24:13
Are you wrong in a relationship? I
1:24:15
don't know what you mean by being
1:24:17
wrong. What are you talking about? I'm
1:24:20
mostly right. Sometimes I'm so right that
1:24:22
it makes Heather mad. See, that's what
1:24:24
I'm not. You are Daria for me.
1:24:27
Yeah. I'm always wrong. Oh, that's funny.
1:24:29
Yeah, so I would need a log
1:24:31
and I have some. Now are you
1:24:33
always wrong because you're actually wrong or
1:24:36
are you always wrong? Because Daria thinks
1:24:38
you're wrong. I don't know, that's why
1:24:40
I need this device. I mean, not
1:24:43
wrong about that. I can guarantee you
1:24:45
that is one thing. Was I wrong?
1:24:47
And then I will figure it out
1:24:50
because like I have a feeling I'm
1:24:52
mostly right. But definitely. First off, one
1:24:54
of the things that Heatherer hates. Hey,
1:24:56
it's a stir. Sarah's laughing in the
1:24:59
back of her, by the way. Sarah,
1:25:01
hold on, Sarah used to work with
1:25:03
me for a long time, now she's
1:25:06
helping us out a dig. So she
1:25:08
knows my family dynamic really, really well.
1:25:10
So she's, am I wrong that much?
1:25:13
Or we can cut it out, please.
1:25:16
Oh sure, that's fine, that's fine, that's
1:25:18
fine, that's fine, that goes out on
1:25:21
the internet. Yes. That's the problem. That's
1:25:23
the problem. That's the problem. That's the
1:25:25
problem. Yes, yes. That sums up my
1:25:27
relationship. In a few words. Yeah, what,
1:25:29
Heather, what are the things that, Heather,
1:25:31
I'm gonna jump out the window. What
1:25:33
are the things that Heather, like, annoys
1:25:35
her is I just guess about. lot
1:25:37
of stuff, but I guess with confidence,
1:25:40
and I'm mostly right. Yes. And she
1:25:42
hates it. Because she's like, you're just
1:25:44
making that up. And I'm like, no,
1:25:46
I don't, I think that's right. And
1:25:48
then we'll look it up and she'll
1:25:50
be like, God damn it, it is
1:25:52
right. And I'll be like, God damn
1:25:54
it, it is right. And I'll be
1:25:56
like, God damn it, it is right.
1:25:58
And I'll be like, God damn it,
1:26:01
it is, it is right. It is.
1:26:03
It is right. It is. It is.
1:26:05
It is. It is. It is. It
1:26:07
is. It is. It is. It is.
1:26:09
It is. It is. It is. It
1:26:11
is. It is. It is. It is.
1:26:13
It is. It is. It is. It
1:26:15
is. It is. It is. It is.
1:26:17
It is. It is. It is. It
1:26:20
is. It is. It is. It is.
1:26:22
It is. It is. It is. I
1:26:24
do need one. So it's called limitless
1:26:26
dot AI for those that are wondering.
1:26:28
I never mentioned the name of the
1:26:30
company. We're not investors and recent back
1:26:32
them. It's a cool, it's a cool
1:26:34
company. I will say I have privacy
1:26:36
concerns because like, well, for example, I
1:26:38
was out with me, Danny and Chris
1:26:41
were talking about stuff and we're talking
1:26:43
about like a lot of off-the-record stuff
1:26:45
that we're seeing. and the AI world
1:26:47
that isn't public yet. And when you're
1:26:49
having those intimate conversations, you're like, okay,
1:26:51
who's capturing this? Where is it going?
1:26:53
And I will say that the limitless
1:26:55
folks have gone to great lengths to
1:26:57
disclose like their privacy policy and like
1:27:00
how they keep it on device and
1:27:02
don't take it off-prem or anything like
1:27:04
or on-prem or to their facility and
1:27:06
they do like, I think they do
1:27:08
local processing of it, I'll have to
1:27:10
check. But anyway, it is. Interesting because
1:27:12
I see, I don't know about you,
1:27:14
but every Zoom or Google Meet that
1:27:16
I'm in these days is a company
1:27:18
with an AI bot that is like
1:27:21
now listening, right? Oh, of course. And
1:27:23
it's note-taking and it's providing me like
1:27:25
that I appreciate because I can go
1:27:27
back and back, oh, what were the
1:27:29
to-do's or what did I have to,
1:27:31
what was said here or whatever, but
1:27:33
it doesn't feel private. But I think
1:27:35
that's a world we're moving it too.
1:27:37
A hundred percent, and that's sad, and
1:27:39
that sad, because there, because there's sad,
1:27:42
because there's sad, because there's sad, because
1:27:44
there's. Well, but isn't it right? Like,
1:27:46
there are times when I want to
1:27:48
have, like, let's say you and I
1:27:50
and Mao are going to get hop
1:27:52
on a call to talk about next
1:27:54
episode, you know, we're shooting in Kentucky,
1:27:56
whatever. No, no, no, no. You and
1:27:58
I hop on first. The script is
1:28:01
running. Yeah, the script, the AI. Yeah,
1:28:03
the AI is listening and taking notes.
1:28:05
And you and I would have prior
1:28:07
to that. Right. had a conversation that
1:28:09
could be as intimate as it needed
1:28:11
to be. So, but no, but you
1:28:13
would have this moment where you were
1:28:15
like, we're gonna talk about whatever the
1:28:17
fuck we're gonna talk about and there
1:28:19
is no, it's as if we're sitting
1:28:22
in the room. Right, right, right. And
1:28:24
there's no cameras or video. Because we
1:28:26
all have those chats with our friends.
1:28:28
Of course, you have to have those
1:28:30
chats with your friends. You're not. Getting
1:28:32
that stuff out of being yeah, you
1:28:34
have to have that you have to
1:28:36
offcast those weird things Yeah, that you
1:28:38
want to just go get I got
1:28:41
to get this out of my system
1:28:43
I say some stupid shit on group
1:28:45
text with my friends because it's funny
1:28:47
and then I also know if it
1:28:49
ever got out there People would be
1:28:51
like okay, please said that but then
1:28:53
at the same time. It's like I
1:28:55
kind of feel like if you know
1:28:57
me you know that I'm just joking
1:28:59
about 99.9% of stuff and and I
1:29:02
think it's the intimacy that comes with
1:29:04
friendship, with those around you, a lot
1:29:06
of it is, can you be in
1:29:08
your own skin and comfortable around people?
1:29:10
100%? And I, one of my top
1:29:12
attributes that I love about my close
1:29:14
friends is humor. Oh yeah. And I
1:29:16
think there's nothing better than being on
1:29:18
the laugh at all the different situations.
1:29:21
100%. And so that to me is
1:29:23
a shame that I have to worry
1:29:25
about that, you know. It's almost like,
1:29:27
I'll just say AI did it. Yeah,
1:29:29
because if it links up, I didn't
1:29:31
fucking do it. Yeah, that was me.
1:29:33
That's an AI image generation from, yeah,
1:29:35
that's nice. Because you could just, free.
1:29:37
Exactly. That's not me, that's a bot.
1:29:39
It's a bot. It's a bot. It's
1:29:42
a bot. It's a bot. It's a
1:29:44
bot. It's a bot. It's a bot
1:29:46
called Kevin. Yes. Guys, that
1:29:48
was a fucking
1:29:50
marathon. But it's But how we
1:29:52
roll here. also how
1:29:54
we roll here. That's
1:29:56
it for this
1:29:58
