Yeah.
I mean.
It's a lot for people to get there.

Like a real WWE type thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Royal Rumble.
Yeah, you get to walk down there and.
Get some fives along the way.
No, no, You're blocked off.
Oh, okay.
I did when I walked out of the tunnel because they could –
people could – when you – they see you, like, right when you walk by.
So I did a couple, like, you know, waving at people when I walked out.
Very, very, very nice people.
I'm excited.
I feel good about the hour.
Had some good stuff

like we we don't go out till friday and so i was like, I need to go. I just need to get, I need to say it again.
And like, you know, kind of feel like, feel it like on a shorter set stuff,
stuff kind of standalone.
Let me just see what these jokes are really at.
Met Trevor Lawrence.

Oh yeah.
He's a nice guy.
I love Trevor Lawrence.
Oh man.
Big fan. Just the, just guy. I love Trevor Lawrence. Oh, man. Big fan.

Yeah.
Him and his wife, they've been together.
They've known each other since they were five.

He just met everybody, goes up and says, hey, how you doing?
I'm Trevor.

like he goes i just don't like this city man and i was like what and he goes i just want i like
tennessee a lot and i was like dude i hear you man uh and then it was very they all started laughing
then they chanted duval that's what they chant it's their county yeah i did not know that sounded
like booing i assumed it wasn't booing i it was something, but I didn't know what it was.
Weird to chant the county, though.
Yeah.
You know, they don't always just display the county as you're rolling into a place.
No, no.
I'm a big county fan.
Yeah, yeah.
I just did a show in Ponte Vedra, Ponte Vedra, outside of Jacksonville,
and they had a big sign in the green room that said,
don't worry, they're not booing you. They're just yelling. And it was like a whole explanation of that. So I would not have
known that going in. Yeah. Yeah. I did not know that. And then we saw, uh, Derek trucks and Susan
Hadesky are, uh, me and Laura's old friends. And, uh, it was very fun to get to hang out with them
and, uh, get to see them. And yeah, it was a fun – those are all just good dudes.
It was a very normal Hank.
A lot of golfers, too.
Augustine was down there, so then he had some golfing buddies come,
and I played Saul Grass, where I texted Jason Day a picture of him
when he won at the Players, and then he won.
I texted him Thursday because they have pictures of the winners,
and they showed him and his daughter who was a baby,
or she was two or something, and that's when he won there.
And then look at this.
And then he goes and wins this weekend.
That's awesome.
I mean, I had as much to do with it as he did.
There's just no way.
There's no way I'm not that involved in his win.
He's worked very, very hard to get back to that point.
Yeah.
He's got a PGA Championship coming up this week.
It's very exciting.
Big time, man.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was fun.
Met some – I forgot the – I got two drawings from some kids.
That was very sweet drawings, and they're on the bus.
And then I also met some guys in Jacksonville.
One guy gave me a challenge coin, and it's on the bus,
and I'll bring it back in.
It's – I didn't really get to talk to the guy.
He gave it to me.
Such a cool challenge coin.
And then-
What do you mean a challenge coin?
He challenged, we fought.
And it's like those coins right there.
He gives you the coin and then he's challenging you to fight him.
No, it's like, it's the military.
They give the challenge coins.
So the thing behind it, what it used to mean was,
I mean, it still means this.
I think it's a token of appreciation to now and like so people
handle them out as that so when i did uso tours you'd get a bunch of coins and okay uh but uh
it's what you would do it is you would if you were in the service and you had the coin in and
you were getting a you know you're at the bar getting a beer and then you put your coin out
you know you're at the bargain the beer and then you put your coin out well if the other guy doesn't have his coin then you then he has to buy the round oh okay but if he has his coin i think
then you have to buy the round and so it's a child like to see are you do you have your coin on you
or not all right and if someone pulls it out and that's like the i think the history behind it
and then now it's like uh i think it's maybe it's still that but it's also
just a i think it's a appreciation or like a it's a very nice thing so it's an honor to be given one
yeah somebody yeah yeah for sure yeah yes and it was very tough to challenge people if they don't
know what it is though like if someone put it out of the bar and be like oh that's cool what is that
yeah he shotgunned a beer running for a minute i go and i had to buy it
he had the concession guy standing right next to him with that big tub you're like he's the one
with the big all right and then but it was he gave me one and i also got a hat uh from a guy
and uh maybe the nate i think the navy i gotta see i could tell him that i'll wear it one day
uh all this i left on the bus i get off the bus, I gotta see, I gotta tell them that. I'll wear it one day. Uh,
all this I left on the bus.
I get off the bus,
I forget everything.
But it was,
uh,
very cool,
cool stuff,
uh,
this weekend.
Yeah,
it was fun.
Good deal.
It was a good time.
All right.
What'd y'all do?
Dusty had a big weekend.
Well,
yeah,
I filmed,
uh,
filmed a one hour,
uh,
comedy special.
Wow.
Uh,
sold out both shows. They did sell out, uh, at the Bijou in, uh special. Wow. Sold out both shows.
That's awesome.
They did sell out at the Bijou in Knoxville, and it was great.
Yeah.
I mean, I did the first hour, and I was like, that's so good.
I've got it.
So the next show, I was very relaxed.
I was relaxed the first one.
I wasn't nervous at all about this.
It just felt good.
I was surrounded by good people.
The audiences was hot. And then, uh, but the second show, I mean, I did the same jokes and did like 15 minutes more
time. I don't know how that, but I slowed down. I did extra parts to jokes. I got into it,
had a little guy that kept yelling out, but I was able to make it funny every time. And it was
great. Yeah. Yeah. When you say a little guy guy i don't know how big he was but i just
mean he was yelling out yeah i don't know why i called him little uh but i don't know the size
of him at all and based on the yell i would say he was not that small all right yeah what you think
you're showing i would like to kind of keep that first yell that he did. Because I think that was a fun moment.
Yeah.
But now, no yee-yees, but I'm going to get the yee-yee joke going for the next set.
I already had too many jokes in this one, so.
Oh, that's good.
So I'm, yeah, we're going to be all out yee-yee jokes. People are going to expect to see the yee-yee stuff.
Yeah, yeah.
We're all out yee-yee next.
I'm ready.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I'm sick of those jokes.
I mean, I've been telling them a long
time and i like them but i prepping for this i got real sick of those jokes yeah but it felt good i
mean when you're up there you're like this is the last time i have to tell these jokes i can still
tell them if i want but it's the last time i have to tell yeah and it feels good that is a wonderful
feeling yes when you know I don't have to.
Because then you always have some stuff that you're just going to like.
I like doing this more than that.
That's what I try to look at.
You try to.
This, like, my hour now, it's like I'm trying to be, like,
putting the pressure on it to be like, all right, what do.
Like, I should be able to get into everything and be like,
I can't wait to say this.
like all right what do like i should be able to get into everything and be like i can't wait to say this it might be impossible just because you get them all together at different times so
you know this stuff i was like in we had some new stuff i talked about in richmond and the i did it
at the beginning and i just liked the way i worded it all and it was like and it's new and it's i'm
trying to figure it out so it's very exciting'm trying to figure it out. So it's very exciting. So once I figure it out though, I mean, eventually that's, you're going
to get like tired, you know, you'd be like, I'm kind of tired of it. But yeah, especially when
you're, then you're like wanting to record it. So now you're like at a show, it's like, it could
still be loose, but at the recording, you're like, I want this to be tight. I want it to be very
precise what I'm saying. At least that's how I approach it and so you know you as you're working on it you're like doing it over and over again and you're like
i'm pretty sick of this but when it came show time i was i took two days off i didn't think
about comedy at all and so when i got out there it was you know it's fun to say it yeah because
you also have been working these jokes where it's like it's a pretty good chance this joke's about to work so you get to roll into a joke with confidence yeah and knoxville was fun i like knoxville a lot uh the
people that came out was great i had people from my high school come uh up there uh i don't think
so uh but i'll give them a shot i know they listen to the podcast kyle hester um and um oh gosh uh
angela angela venafro they both came i went to high school with them it's great great to see and oh gosh Angela Vanoffero
they both came
I went to high school with them
it was great
great to see them
they came hang out with me after
it was awesome
and yeah it was just great
I mean Knoxville was fun
the night before
I was just sitting at the hotel
with my opener Alec Parent
and we were having
some little cigars
and this girl
this lady is hanging out out there
and she seems a bit know a bit off but
she seems like a nice she's drinking tall boys by herself yeah and she's like can i come sit with
you guys and we were like yeah and then she comes over and she sits like in between we're sitting
side by side on a park bench and she like wedges her way in between us and then starts wanting to
tell stories and it's like she wants to she we go she goes it's
a long story and i was like well we got time you know but we're being real jokey you know she's
like oh you're gonna let me tell my story and i'm like as long as we can interject our jokes
and commentary you can tell it yeah but then she would get into it and she'd get real emotional
and then she would just like freeze up like it would seem like she was about to cry, but then her hands would like,
and her feet would lift off the ground
and she would just like freeze,
like for a long, uncomfortable amount of time.
Like at one point she was like,
I'm going to write a book.
And we were like joking with her,
like, why don't you do a one woman show?
You know?
And then she freezes up for like the fourth time.
And I'm like, well, maybe the book is the way.
You know what I mean?
Maybe written word is your, but then I saw Mike Kaplan was doing a show in town
and we had time. So I thought, well, let's walk down and see Mike Kaplan.
And I don't know him, but I thought it'd be fun to see the show. And she was like, well,
I'll walk with you. And I was like, well, have you ever been to a comedy show? She said, no.
And I go, well, if you get kicked out, you're on your own. And then, so we're walking and she keeps trying to like,
she goes, I know you're married, but let me hold your arm. And I'm like, no, no, no.
I was like, hold Alex arm. And Alec was nice enough to let her do that. And then we get to
the venue. We finally find it. And then I realized I'm like an off a week on the date. There's no
show at all. So now we've just strolled around the city with this lady.
And then eventually I go into a store and she walks off and leaves Alec.
And we just, we were free.
I mean, we thought we'd never be free.
And then suddenly we were.
We saw her later at the hotel.
So we know she made it back.
Was this woman barefoot?
That's how I'm picturing her.
She had slip-on shoes and very often she would slip them off and be barefoot.
She told us she lived in the woods in a house in Pennsylvania, in the middle of Pennsylvania.
Her name was, she was going by Tam.
Seems like someone you'd love.
No, I love talking.
Listen, I mean, I always find myself talking to the weirdest people, and I love it.
I mean, I am all about it.
But at some point, it's like sometimes you can't get away, and you're like, this has been a fun time, but now I'm ready to like-
I'm ready to wrap it up.
Yeah, I'm ready to break away, get back into some normal conversation here.
Tam is a good name.
It is.
But it was fun, though.
I mean, I liked it.
But yeah, she kept like-
One time, she grabbed my arm, and about the time some guy was walking by, he goes, what's up, Dusty?
And I'm like, oh, that's all I need.
So I was like, yeah.
Went to high school with Hannah.
They read on the internet last night that Dusty is out with a strange lady.
Yeah.
It's a Kramer when he says, I read it on the internet that Banya killed.
Yeah. But she also was like, he says, I read on the internet that Banya killed. Yeah.
But she also was like, apparently her card stopped working at the hotel.
And so the front desk guy was like this 21 year old dude.
And he just kept giving her beers out of the cooler.
And I'm like, I don't think this is the way to go.
I mean, I don't.
Where was it?
What hotel were you in that they had beers in a cooler?
Well, you know, like, well, not like? Well, you know, not like a cooler.
I don't know what you would call it.
Like the kiosk? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
It wasn't like...
She's paying for them.
Igloo, styrofoam cooler.
I think it's being charged to the room, but they were saying her card wasn't working.
Yeah.
Or credit card wasn't working.
Yeah, they were like, we know she's got money, but her card's not working.
I'm like, well, how do you know she has money?
It's like she's borrowing a home.
If my card's not working, that's not a good thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
How are they going to get DeRoon paid for?
I don't know.
What was she wearing?
Well, she was dressed normal, but she had slip-on shoes.
Like a dress?
Like she thinks she's part of a wedding?
She said she was down because her daughter just graduated from law school.
Yeah.
And then she told me she was
a widow but when she got into the story uh she was divorced and the guy that she i guess loved
died but they were never married and the story was just like she wanted to tell it but then she
would get like real emotional and it would just take her so and i was like we don't have to talk
about this this is your idea yeah well nobody's ever given her the opportunity yes yeah her whole life nobody's
been like you have the floor for the next few hours so just go ahead and i yeah i had quite
a bit of a cigar and i was trying to save my voice i was like i have time i can sit and listen yeah
but i was like you gotta be you can't be freezing up like this. But it was only during the story.
Once she wasn't telling that story, she wasn't freezing up.
If she would have nailed the story, would you have given her time on your show?
Yeah, I would have fired Alec and had her open the show.
That's fun.
That's good stuff.
I was in Denver, Colorado.
Comedy Works, just great club.
Perfect weekend.
All the shows were great. They gave me a headlining date there. All right. Comedy Works, the big deal. Perfect weekend. All the shows are great.
They gave me a headline date there.
All right.
Comedy Works, the big deal.
August 6th.
All right, yeah.
The Downtown Clubs.
I'm pumped about that.
That is awesome.
Great club.
Yeah.
Thanks.
Yeah.
I was in San Diego.
First time ever in San Diego.
Mic Drop Comedy Club.
Great shows.
Met a lot of nice folks.
Went to the San Diego Zoo.
Yeah.
Did some research on the animals
oh yeah one of the nicest zoos anywhere yeah and it was great yeah what kind of weird animals did
you see i mean i saw some animals i didn't even know what they were um but it's funny all these
animals are so big and ferocious when you see them that you everyone i think i think i mean i walk in i'm
like i think this cockatoo could take the whole thing yeah you know and then you just see them
and more and more i tell you what though i saw a polar bear and i saw a tiger that polar bear was
so big yeah they're huge right and the tiger maybe he's just not eating well these days he was smaller
than i expected you know half of them more than half most of them were asleep yeah so you're just
looking at them laying there.
But the polar bear was huge.
That's my problem with the zoo.
I'm like, wake up.
You know, people are here.
That's your problem with the zoo?
The animals aren't working hard enough for you?
Come on.
They sleep during the day.
Yeah.
That's why night zoo's great.
Oh, yeah.
If you go, when I went to Singapore, they had a night zoo.
And it's the best zoo I've ever been to.
And they're so active and so loud.
And it's kind of scary because you just hear roars.
I mean, it's wild.
It's their time.
It's their time.
I had a run-in this weekend at the Rocky Mountain National Park with a wild turkey.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
It was just kind of sitting on the trail.
And I kind of just gave it some space.
It made me rethink the whole baboon versus the turkey thing because it was pretty scary
when it gets going.
Yeah.
You know, and it's bobbing its head at you and it's got big talons and claws.
I think it made you rethink it until you run into a baboon on the trail.
You're probably right.
And then you're like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
If I had to run in with a baboon, I would have led with that on the podcast and not just remember yeah yeah that would be it's like a
dude walking up you know well baboons i got as close as me and you to the baboons through some
very thick glass and yeah i wouldn't want to mess with them either yeah they're all pretty
pretty intimidating and They work out.
Someone posted that cassowary video.
The cassowary.
Some kids talk about the cassowary.
The cassowary, I'm telling you what.
We got a couple of cassowary comments.
Yeah, okay. I don't even know
this animal existed, but I'm convinced
it's pretty ferocious. It's awesome.
I think it's awesome.
It's moving up.
Hey, Cassowary.
That doesn't flow as good as hay bear.
Let's start with some of you guys' comments.
First up, Joey Duggan.
Brian seems like he'd throw a knuckle ball, possibly not on purpose.
Well, that's true.
So about my first pitch, the sounds game, I assume.
And yeah, there's a good chance that there won't be a lot of rotation on it.
Yeah.
Well, when you're so good, sometimes you throw a knuckle ball and when you don't even intend to.
What if I tell you though, that I have some news and I didn't mean it to be this?
I already know what it is.
I've already told it at my show this weekend.
Somebody booed.
Yeah.
What's the news?
I'm throwing the first pitch out the week before.
I was not happy about that.
May 27th.
I don't mean it.
Is it more than a week? Mine's July 4th. Yeah 27th. So it's more than a week. I don't mean it. Is it more than a week?
Mine's July 4th.
Yeah.
Oh, so it's way different.
You have the bigger date.
You have Memorial Day weekend.
That's pretty good.
That's not July 4th.
No, it's not.
You have July 4th.
I honestly, I never in a million years would have done this.
I just wouldn't have done it.
But you did do it.
Because we're going there with Harper's softball team.
Oh, okay.
That's the only reason.
Okay.
And it was like,
you know,
I'm doing it
to impress my own daughter.
Right.
So that's why I'm doing it.
Well, now you guys
can do pitching practice together.
Yeah.
I'll give you
a lay of the land
of how it goes.
You have the bigger date.
Aaron texted me
the day before
about it. And then you, and then Abby texted me the day before about it and then you and then abby
texted me the next day said hey give me that contact and i was like why she said nate wants
to have the first pitch july 4th oh and i said the same day as me yeah and then later on i texted
i said is he really and she said well yeah he's doing it may 27th yeah and then that night at my
show somebody asked hey you've been warming up for you know from stage and i said yeah get this nate's throwing out the first
pitch may 27th and somebody in the back goes boo yeah and i said yes does this guy not have
enough attention he has to steal my thunder it's uh i don't know what to tell you i don't want to
do it i mean i do want to do it i mean i i wanted do want to do it. I mean, I want to. I've never thrown a first pitch out. I do want to do it.
It is never in a million years.
Take everything out of it.
I'm doing it because Harper's team.
And I want to do it for that.
So take, there's zero ego in this.
It just, you know, I was even like, do I want to, maybe I don't do it.
But it's like, you know, it's hard to get to a sound. Like, I don't know when i can get to one and we're going and then you're like yeah it sounds like a nateland
takeover yeah i mean i like it we got i think they have to get in on this yeah i'll get in in a
couple years yeah yeah there we go we're all doing a couple you have the biggest we we agree none of
us do july 4th i'll need two years of pride that's that's his that's july 4th the I'll need two years of pride. That's his. July 4th's the big. That's the Bates
day. It's the day America
was founded.
Supposedly, right?
Who knows?
It was the day Brian Bates
was founded on that
mound. They'll make the
AAA championship, Game 7.
What if they ask you, you pitch so good, they ask you
to join the team. What will you do?
I mean, if it doesn't affect this, I'll consider it.
Okay.
You would draw a line in the sand and say,
I got to be able to do the podcast every Monday.
Dedicated.
That's very nice of you.
Well, that's something they want, too.
That's very sweet.
You'll promote the games.
Yeah.
Okay.
And then he'll go and, you know.
They'll pull you after an inning you could throw so
you're like i'm tired you could throw so slow that a batter would be like i can't hit it that
happens sometimes they're like this guy's throwing nothing but changeups out here it's an e-fist
it's called and sometimes when an infielder comes in and that's they do that yeah and it throws them
off doug bockler our friend who's
big fan of the podcast he's the pitching coach for toledo mud hens maybe i could get him to
so i'm guessing sunny gray will probably be training you uh oh to train no i don't know
if i was by the way like the best pitcher in baseball yeah i know he has the best era in
baseball right yeah look at that sunny gray, we got his jersey hanging up.
Yeah.
He's on the podcast.
Okay.
Yeah.
I wanted him over you, but he pitches for the Twins.
Yeah.
Sonny's the best.
Vandy, local Nashville, Smyrna.
Yeah.
Awesome.
And he said if he throws a no-hitter, he'll say hello, folks,
in the press conference. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Awesome. And he said if he throws a no-hitter, he'll say hello, folks, in the press conference.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I don't think he'll remember.
Did he say that on the podcast?
He did.
Okay.
But that's been a while.
That's before Haybear was even a thing.
We can maybe, maybe after podcast today, me and you can go throw.
Yeah.
Just go throw.
We can warm up.
Do you have gloves?
Yep.
I think I've got one in my trunk.
Yeah.
Oh, you got, oh, there you go. You think. You know, you put it in there. I do. I know exactly where it's at. Do you have gloves? Yep. I think I've got one in my trunk. Yeah. Oh, you got, oh, there you go.
You think, you know, you put it in there. I do.
I do.
I know exactly where it's at.
I might have one underneath my suit.
It's brand new.
Still got the tags on it.
Is it under your golf clubs?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Heather Bauer.
Regarding Mr. Belding doing standup,
maybe breakfast needs to be in control of the computer and searching again.
Oh, look at this.
Why is that?
Mr. Belding doing stand-up at Flappers Comedy Club.
I've been to Flappers.
Nate was right.
All right.
But I don't know.
All right.
But he's like older here.
Like, has he always been a comic or did he do it after?
No, no, no, no.
I'm talking about now.
Okay.
But I'm talking about this.
I didn't know this.
This is not on his Wikipedia page.
Don't get mad at me
Get mad at Wikipedia
Yeah I don't know what he's talking about
But he got a jacket that matches his shirt
Yeah
You think he's doing Saved by the Bell jokes?
Yeah he looks good to be honest
Yeah he does look good
He looks happy
Yeah he's in his 70s
Yeah
That's awesome Derek Cochran He does look good He looks happy Yeah he's in his 70s So that's Yeah
Yeah
That's awesome
Derek Cochran
My nephew represented Dusty
At his high school graduation
Oh
Oh yeah
Saw that this morning
Look at this
Look at that
On the graduation
Good time
Wow
That's what I'm talking about
That's cool
Yeah
Yeah
I wish Dusty believed in that education.
Well, that's true.
I mean, it's a good time because he's graduating.
Is his yellow for something?
Like, is he something?
If you have a sash like that, yeah, that means something.
Maybe he's National Honor Society.
Maybe he graduated with honors.
I got smart fans.
I mean, that's a super smart fan.
He's got like a special thing.
And that other person's hat is white.
They might not even graduate. Yeah. They up they might that's like they're like we'll let you sit out
there but you're not getting anything and then they go we'll put a white hat on you that's what
i did in college what where i didn't graduate on time technically because i failed a class my
senior year yeah so i walked out there and they gave me the diploma there's there's a fake there's
nothing in it i feel like a real fraud doing that and then and you what you're like i want to just go back
and get it i had i finished two credits short so i had to go back to summer school but they were
like you're gonna walk with your class but you walk up and you shake their hand and they hand
you the booklet and you open it up and there's just nothing inside yeah that's kind of notre
dame education i like yeah you know what i like to see it. I'm sure that happens
probably constantly, right?
Yeah,
a few of my friends
went through the same thing.
You didn't want to walk
with the summer graduates?
No,
I don't even think
they have a ceremony
for the summer graduates.
I could have walked
technically the next year.
Would you fail?
I would have yelled fake.
Logic.
Fake.
Logic?
Logic.
Oh man,
I could have told you that.
It's the hardest class
I've ever taken.
I failed it twice.
Like illogic?
Logic.
Formal logic
was the name of the class.
So what's the logic?
It's almost like math.
That's the only class
I would have passed.
If A is B,
then it's all written out
like math equation.
Why'd you take that?
Because it was a, I needed it to get a degree in philosophy.
It was like one of the main requirements.
So you have a degree in philosophy?
I have a minor in philosophy because I failed that class twice.
What's the major?
A major would have been like an actual degree.
I know.
What is your major?
Marketing.
Oh.
That's like a weak major.
Isn't it? You think that's weaker than a philosophy but you're good at philosophy feels right off yeah but marketing say this is what formal logic
is it looks like this it's all just equations like this that you have to solve and i was so
bad yeah what's the point of it what's the logic behind it that's what i should have asked them
yeah what's the logic behind this class yeah what i should have asked them yeah what's the logic behind this
class yeah logically i don't see how this would help me in anything for philosophy yeah what would
that show you what would they talk about it's just it's how arguments are structured and how
the great philosophers were great mathematicians that's crazy a lot of them were yeah but who would
go all right p p dash q underline q like i mean
that's got a r and a triangle like what does that what does the r mean that these are variables
so they could mean whatever so you can plug in statements for these you know so any of these
variables the triangle means delta it's it's the change. So R is like...
So let's say A is Dusty has a dog.
B is the dog is brown.
So B does not follow A because they're not related at all.
I mean, that was a horrific example.
But that's the kind of stuff you plug in statements like that. because they're not related at all. I mean, that was a horrific example,
but that's the kind of stuff you plug in statements like that.
And then when do you show this?
Are you just talking R, B, C? I mean, it's just, to me, it feels, this is what I feel it is.
This is what I feel it is. If you explain this dumb, it would make sense.
But then they go, well, we're going to add some.
They make it super hard by putting a triangle.
It was so hard.
And I passed every other requirement to get a philosophy degree except this.
So it's like I clearly didn't need that.
So you didn't go back and pass this?
No, I failed it twice
and i was like so i had to take uh classes over the summer and i just took other classes
did you take a foreign language i gave up no how many people in your classes were failing this
uh not many okay i didn't go to this class period what letter were you of the class were you like
the c of the class and then the r and the b were like, yeah, we got to deal with this.
R and B equals graduates and C equals.
I was the Z.
Yeah, you were the Z.
They were like badmouthing you.
Let me see that example of form logic.
Premise, all spiders have eight legs.
Black widows are a type of spider.
Conclusion, black widows have eight legs you see that yeah
that makes sense see how that works so it's like just showing you like the logical thing that you
would take from that yeah but statement right and just breaking it down to the math of that
so that you can why would you need math of it so you can plug it in where
what are you plugging it in for what do you you mean? I don't know what the,
like,
all right,
that's formal logic.
If you told me that's the example of formal logic.
Yes.
That's the example of formal logic.
I don't know what,
what would that equation be?
So all spiders have eight legs is why.
And again,
remember I failed this class.
I'm not going to,
I'm not the best.
I can't wait for the comments.
And the, and the why here, the why is just a letter you're making up yeah those are just very it could be
just like in math it could be c anything yeah okay the logic majors are so all spiders eight
legs is y yeah and then b is black widows are type of spiders so yb and then c is black widows
have eight legs no that's not that's not how you would do it but you got the
you got the idea the answer would be yb it is funny we're trying to learn this from a guy that
failed it yeah i'm gonna say maybe the only guy in the whole school that failed this class twice
so i don't know exactly and you're like and we're like how do you do it though he's like i don't
know i don't know it's stuff that's the like, I don't know. I don't know.
It's stuff.
That's the stuff though.
I don't understand is like, if it's example,
formal logic is explained in this like very simple way.
Why does it get so complicated?
This is the type of class I'd like to take now. When I was that age, college age, I would have hated it.
But now I would like to take this.
I'm not going to but i would
like but i remember thinking this is what i'm taking philosophy to not do classes like this
that's just math you know but i know that's what i mean like if you do philosophy what is what job
would you have if you were philosophy i don't know i could have gone to law school teach philosophy
i could have taught philosophy it's like a pyramid scheme you go to law could have gone to law school. Teach philosophy. I could have taught philosophy. It's like a pyramid scheme.
You'd go to law school?
You'd go to law school for debate?
Yeah, I could have gone to...
So philosophy is like learning how to debate?
No, no.
You remember, we did a whole episode on philosophy.
I don't remember much.
But it's...
All right, but then why would law school benefit?
Or why would a philosophy degree benefit you as a lawyer?
Oh, yeah. Because it's because a lot of it is how arguments are structured.
And so, yeah. So there's a little bit of a parallel there.
OK, you're right. Well, the reason I asked about foreign language is maybe you should have done Babel.
Oh, boy. Well, who needs to take a foreign language class in college when you have Babbel? It's my go-to travel hack. Whether you're a seasoned traveler like myself or you're going on your first adventure, communication is key to fully experiencing a new culture. That's where Babbel comes in. It's the language learning app that sold more than 10 million.
What?
10 million.
What?
Subscriptions.
Thanks to Babbel's easy bite-sized language lessons,
there's still time to learn a new language before you reach your destination.
They came straight from a velociraptor in Jurassic Park,
thought this would be relevant to the animal fights.
Wow.
Interesting that they say that,
and then they say that they think dinosaurs evolved into birds. Maybe all along we've just been finding cassowary bones.
Every one of those dinosaur bones
is a cassowary?
Well, every one of the bones
is a cassowary.
The feet are gnarly.
They do look like dinosaur footprints.
They're like, oh yeah, it's a dinosaur,
but the dinosaur evolved into a bird.
And they're like, well, maybe it was just always a bird.
Well, someone,
the video,
you don't have the video.
Of what?
Of the Irwin's son.
Uh,
someone,
I thought I saw that.
Oh,
on tonight's show?
Yeah.
Uh,
I don't.
Did they have a cassowary?
It was on,
uh,
uh,
Letterman.
It's on the Nate Land podcast,
I think.
Okay.
Like, it's like reposted or something.
Maybe I did. I don't, I think the people in this video don't know what chases mean but yeah i don't yeah i'm not trying to get a little
disappointing but if you see instagram and go to like the nate land podcast you know uh he talked
about how mean they are yeah oh this thing yeah it does kind of charge at you. And it's got no arms.
You know, obviously it's a bird, so it looks a little odd when it lunges at you.
This one's all caged up.
Basically, what he says is their legs are strong enough to take down a lion.
They can kill a lion.
So they don't need a gun.
Yeah.
Oh, that was the emu.
That was the emu.
Do they live in the same area as a lion?
Yeah.
It's near.
They can get to each other.
I think.
I'm saying that.
I have no, zero idea if they do or not.
But yeah, they live.
Yeah, the cassowary is going to be, it's going to be tough to beat.
It's going to be, I like it a lot.
Is it going to fight this leper or are they just kind of showing it back and forth?
Again, I'm a victim to a lot of clickbait YouTube titles today.
This is Cassowary Fights Leopard.
It's not happening.
Oh, that looks like a dead Cassowary.
Look, he's got fur in his mouth.
Never mind.
We don't know if that's a Cassowary.
We don't know.
Yeah, we don't know what's going on.
But between fact and fiction, the thing says it's between fact and fiction.
Cassowary is the real deal.
I mean, they're definitely not big, but their legs are crazy.
And I think they're just relentless.
They're still sucking gas.
I mean, you got to realize the idea that they're-
I've been chased by a goose before.
I mean, birds can get wild.
I mean, they can...
Goose are really mean.
This one's doing...
This one's trying to break into a car.
I think it's looking at its reflection.
And so, yeah.
I mean, you got to think mentality of wanting to fight.
And casseroles feel like they want to fight.
So that mentality
goes a long way in uh within a fight like you know i i picture like this is like a tiger and
a polar bear a tiger feels like it wants to fight and a polar bear doesn't so that that plays a lot
into it so something could be big and like if they have to fight they're going to fight but like
that's why grizzly bear will beat a polar bear that's when they have fought because they're just so much more aggressive okay that
they're going the polar bear is bigger but the mindset of the polar bear doesn't want to fight
its whole body is white so it blends into the snow it wants to be left alone and grizzly bears
are like i want to get i want to get. You don't think there's any camouflage involved with a grizzly bear in its color?
You just don't think about them like a polar bear.
Yeah, there is, I guess, brown.
But a polar bear is literally like, I'm going to go live in the area that's only...
Polar bears cover up their nose so their prey can't see them.
That's how smart they are.
Because they're scared.
They cover them up because they hear a helicopter and they go, you know,
airplane flying over until they talk with their nose covered.
JS, the Nashville Zoo has a cassowary.
I think we need the four of you to go check it out in person
and teach us more about that insane bird.
We should go down to the national zoo i think we're taking uh eleanor for first time either
later this week or next week yeah i'm probably gonna go right before that
right before we get there right before you get there i'm gonna take eleanor through it
yeah i'm gonna go get her and take her and then as you get there i'm gonna hand her go i just
showed her yeah you're like i just did this for'm going to hand her and go, I just showed her everything. Yeah.
You're like, I just did this for my daughter.
Yeah.
No, for Eleanor.
Oh, you just did it for your daughter.
Yeah, for your daughter.
Yeah.
Yeah, go see the cassowary.
I'll report back.
Ian Rice, writing to you from Maine,
home of the University of Maine Black Bears
and where our state animal is the moose.
I have to take issue with Aaron's assertion, right?
Yeah.
Assertion that black bears and moose live in two different parts of the country,
so this doesn't happen.
I assure you, they do coexist.
Yeah, a lot of people said something about that to me.
And you know what?
I feel like I've matured on this podcast over the last few years,
and part of maturing is admitting you're wrong you're wrong and i was wrong about
that it's a big thing people just want to hear that out of you is that the first time i've done
that on this podcast probably i thought about lawyering my way out of that but i said you know
what i'm man enough now you are the grizzly bear of this podcast. Aggressive.
Yeah.
And a lot's really happening to you on this podcast today.
What do you mean?
Well, you're having trouble with the Google.
People have been coming at you about your.
Well, he failed.
Can't be a philosopher.
Minor in philosophy.
Is that embarrassing to have a minor in philosophy? When you go for a major and you know everybody knows you went for that major.
And then it has to be a minor.
Like, when do you flip it?
Were you going to have two majors?
I was a double major until the last day.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Until the very last day.
And then it was a major minor.
Well, that feels good.
You're like, you know what?
Who needs two majors, really?
Right.
I was overextending myself the whole time.
Look at all these
other people just won i was shooting for two you know that's were you the first uh weber to get
two majors no my brother double majored there and my sister did actually i was the first to not
wow the opposite yeah yeah you really let your let your family, at least you showed them becoming a standup comedian.
Uh,
uh,
Kyle shields.
I'm always impressed by Nate's random knowledge of very specific things.
For example,
his understanding of the physics of a car moose accident is completely
accurate and yet of no use entirely living in Tennessee.
Growing up as a new England native, this was drilled into us new drivers,
and Nate has done us proud.
Thank you.
Yeah, I did.
I mean, I just first showed it up there.
That was drilled into me.
When you hear that there's a chance as you're driving through the night,
you're not going to know what happens,
but a moose body will land on your whole windshield.
It sticks in there. Yeah yeah i wouldn't say that's
useless i mean we've driven we drive all over the country or at least have driven all over the
country so we need to know about moose car accidents i didn't know it i've driven all
over the place and didn't know i mean i've probably thought about it every single day
since i've heard it every time you drive i think about it it pops up in my head, the visual of it a lot. I picture a big barrel-like body, and then you just, the legs give out,
and that just falls through the windshield.
Yeah.
That's what I picture.
That's what you have dreams about.
I don't have dreams of it.
You wake up in a cold sweat.
No, these are during the day.
These are just, I'm walking around.
I'm at Publix.
I could be at Target, and I'm just.
That's almost like visions.
I have visions of it.
Has anyone ever complimented you on your
understanding of physics before?
No. You should have majored in physics.
I should have.
At least minored at it.
I think I'm already minored.
I think before I even got there and showed up,
I'd be a minor.
Aaron sees a black bear driving. He's like,
at least I don't have to worry about any moose running out in front of me.
Yeah.
Laugh it up.
Yeah.
That was foolish though,
Aaron.
It should be a shame to them.
Foolish.
Uh,
Christian Moscoso.
Moscoso.
Wow.
I think that's right.
I think that's right.
Yeah.
Uh,
Christian Moscoso.
That's a good choice of names.
I think that's a great name for that last name.
Mascoco.
Christian Mascoco.
Yeah.
I really do.
I think they really go together.
I think it was Joe Mascoso.
Yeah.
It's got a good flow.
This guy might be a Christian.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Joe Mascoso rhymes.
Yeah. Actually, as I said, Joe so I don't know Joe Moscosco rhymes yeah I'm actually
as I said Joe
I don't hate Joe
yeah
Bill Moscoso
I don't even know
if I
I don't even mind that
I'm trying to find a name
Philip Moscoso
I don't know
that has a ring to it
yeah
I think the last name
is just great
it is a good last name
Moscoso
Dusty Moscoso there you go it's hard to pair together
yeah yeah that doesn't make sense you're like what's that about dennis muscoso yeah it's not
bad either you need dust yeah it needs to be dusty our christian baboons are a huge problem for
farmers so the way they deal with them is by catching one of them and painting it white
then they release it and as it runs back to its group it scares them so they
it scares them so they run away from it and keeps following them so they keep running etc that's
kind of hilarious and that's i googled this and apparently they do that for a lot of monkeys, not just baboons.
And wildlife people says this does not work.
Please stop painting the monkeys.
But it's a thing that people in Africa do.
Well, the wildlife people are not farmers, so they don't know.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
We need to ask a farmer about this.
Yeah.
How do they paint it white?
Just like spray paint?
I don't know.
Probably get it drunk.
Yeah, passes out.
They do white out.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't imagine they have like their special kind of fur paint.
Because there's stuff like that for like dogs and stuff.
You've seen that people paint their dogs.
Really?
Yeah.
I bet they have something that just like,
like explodes on the,
like an airbag type.
Oh, okay.
Maybe they should bleach the fur. And then it's like,
oh no.
And then it runs back.
Bleach the fur.
Yeah.
Like M&M.
Or you in high school.
I like the,
the,
the,
the,
your comment on that.
They're not farmers.
Cause that is true.
Yeah.
Like that's like,
you want to go, you know, it's like, well, this village doesn't know what they're doing.
You're like, this village has been doing this for maybe hundreds and thousands of years.
Yeah, longer than you've been aware of it.
They might be like, it worked.
Yeah.
You know, and then just someone in a building goes, that doesn't work.
Yeah, it's worth trying if the baboons are destroying your farm.
Yeah.
It doesn't work.
Yeah, it's worth trying if the baboons are destroying your farm.
Yeah.
Literally, if you're like, they're getting our vegetables.
Yeah, I mean, even a rabbit, one little cute rabbit can come into your yard and eat all the crops you've been growing.
Just like that.
It could be like, oh, this rabbit's so cute.
And then it just eats everything you've been working to grow.
Something happened to you.
Yeah, what happened? Several times. Rabbits, deer, groundhogs, they'll just eats everything you've been working to grow something happened yeah what happened several times that's rabbits deer groundhogs they'll just eat everything you've
been working to grow it's like they don't care they don't care they don't have a lot of feelings
towards it yeah it's all and they don't even say like if the if the rabbit came up tapped on the
door and was like hey appreciate that then it's acceptable i think that's the difference between us and them. Yeah. At least be appreciative.
Don't just take it.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Like, be like a cat that brings a bird to your...
Yeah.
Right.
You know.
Offering.
Like, that's like, I appreciate that.
Yeah.
I don't want it, but like, yeah, it's very nice.
You did bring a gift.
You brought something.
Yeah.
You went out of your way.
Yes.
And did something right. And that's appreciated yeah yeah this all makes sense uh paul emmy mueller i'm surprised at aaron's insistence
that's just the tack aaron day well. Brian was in a mood putting these together.
Yeah.
I mean, I had so many to wade through.
I just picked some of the best.
I'm surprised at Aaron's insistence that the elephant would not be aggressive.
In ancient times, elephants were used in war.
They would sometimes put armor on elephants, get them drunk, and then had them charge into tightly packed enemy soldiers.
Yeah, that's cool, but you're kind of...
Exactly. That's the point I'm trying to make.
You say they're aggressive, they would be great in this fight
because they were used and manipulated by human beings back in the day.
Yeah, they got them drunk.
Yeah, I'm talking about the opposite.
I'm talking about something that can't be manipulated, can't be used by human beings, and is just a warrior out there.
Now, people pointed out something I mentioned on this podcast previously, how an elephant trampled a woman and then showed back up at her funeral and trampled her dead body again.
Right.
Very aggressive.
Yeah, so there's one particular elephant that had vengeance in its heart.
Yeah.
But that's a different argument, I think.
He said this...
Yeah, I don't know.
They were used in war.
He said this example is in the Bible in 1 Maccabees, that you would know it.
Oh, no.
Just because we have that book doesn't mean we read it.
That's not really in all of them.
What do you mean?
Well, Maccabees. Is it? I don't know. was... That's not really in all of them. What do you mean? Well, Maccabees.
Is it?
I don't know.
It's in the Catholic Bible.
In the original King James.
You did your own Bible?
Yeah.
Could I write my own Bible?
You could?
Yeah.
There's a comedy Bible, so yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
I watched a comedy Bible.
But I mean, take on the would your what would your spin be i don't think that's encouraged but you can i think
thomas one of them wrote that one thomas jefferson i don't know one ben franklin maybe wrote his own
version of the bible okay yeah i mean he didn't maybe thomas edison yeah he might have ben
franklin's version i think he i don't think he wrote it, but I think he took some books out and was like, this is the Ben Franklin Bible.
It was a little bit shorter?
Yeah.
Oh, I could do that.
I could take some books out.
Yeah, that's easy.
But yeah, that is-
Oh, you want to just write your own from scratch.
Oh, I thought that's what they do.
So they just add books and take books.
Like Maccabees is in some other stuff, but I think they're saying the Catholic Bible, Maccabees is part of it.
But like other Bibles, it's not in there.
Why would not all the Bibles just have everything in?
Because they have disagreements with each other about what should be in there.
Yeah, I think some of the scripture, some people don't feel like it was doctrine.
Yeah.
or yeah.
Ronald Mitchell,
the next animal fight bracket should include ants versus dusty after you drink several bottles of water.
Well,
I had a bet that I put out about peeing on ants and I would win.
I mean,
every time that's why the ant,
the whole podcast that we did versus ants. I mean, I would, I would win. I would be the ants, but's why the ant, the whole podcast that we did versus ants.
I mean, I would win.
I would beat the ants.
But it's two and a half million ants to one.
Nah, doesn't matter.
You got to drink a lot of water, Dustin.
Yeah, I mean.
You got to drink a lot of water.
What if you run out of ammunition?
And I don't even know if that kills them.
No, it doesn't kill them, but it will slow them down.
Messes up their day.
Yeah.
Yeah, it messes up their day and they just go,
all right, just weather the storm for a second.
I just toy with them for a while.
Yeah.
I mean.
I don't know how long you pee.
Ants start and stop that much.
Ants, they got nothing on me.
Yeah.
Two million of them.
I'll take those out in a couple of hours.
Yeah.
Matt Pittman.
Just finished listening to the Animal Fights episode.
It reminded me of a debate me and my friends have been arguing about for years.
In a fight to the death,
would you rather take on
one lion
or 100 seagulls?
I'd rather take on 100 seagulls.
I'd rather take the seagulls.
No, I'd take the lion all day.
Really?
Seagulls are vicious
and there's a hundred of them.
I don't think you're grasping
how many that is.
I think I just saw a video
of a seagull eating a pigeon
just that was a pelican pelican yes it was okay yeah i'm going seagulls then
it's going to be even uh i know that they're it's they can i mean the movie birds
the alfred hitchcock movie which i've actually watched that the birds the birds uh tippy head and i remember yeah
and so is that those seagulls these are seagulls yeah and so like yeah there it would be pretty
wild do you get a weapon in this battle no and so uh you just gotta fight them and so it's i mean
you could just you know it's like you could you could grab the birds i I mean, you could just, you know, it's like you could, you could grab the birds.
I think the birds you could maybe get away and you wouldn't have that much damage where a lion, like, I mean, you imagine it starts eating you and you're still alive.
Like it's.
Yeah, I'm going seagulls.
It's just the lion is so powerful that.
There's just a hundred of them.
They would just envelop you and just.
Big word.
They would just envelop you and just... Big word. They would just be around you.
I feel like you needed to use that word today
because you've been attacked for your education.
See, that was kind of a clapback word to the audience to go,
don't forget I minored in philosophy.
I know we're all having fun here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I have a major and a minor. sure yeah almost double major unlike my brother so close to a double yeah my brother
sister my family most of my family's double majors and i was close i'm the rebel yeah
with only one your parents have uh my mom does my dad doesn't but my dad has a master's
Do your parents have a... My mom does.
My dad doesn't.
But my dad has a master's.
Yeah.
I mean, so you're like the bottom.
Like, do they talk to you pretty easy at home?
They talk much slower.
Yeah.
When they talk to me.
Say, Aaron, we love you, but we're disappointed.
Right.
Yeah, see, it's the opposite for me.
I have two older sisters,
and neither one of them graduated high school. I'm the first to graduate high school. I'm like the scholar. Yeah, see, it's the opposite for me. I have two older sisters, and neither one of them graduated high school.
I'm the first to graduate high school.
I'm like the scholar.
Yeah, how about it?
It's cool, man.
Congratulations.
Yeah, I do not think...
I think I would do sequels.
But The Lion is just... I don't know if you could ever,
you could at least beat some, I'm just going off what I could beat.
You could beat up seagulls.
A lion, you're really going to never, I mean,
how are you going to kill a lion with your hands?
I don't know.
But I think this is a lose-lose.
I don't think the seagulls is going to be easy, dude.
Yeah, I don't think there's a correct answer.
There you go, lion.
And you're like, God. Yeah, I mean, mean i agree i think it's no chance with the lion so at least you're like i
don't know these are just birds maybe i can do it they would pick you is that how they would do
look at yeah they would just i mean they basically be like little the beaks are yeah it's just like
i mean they would just be pulling at your it'd be getting pitched yeah by a hundred about a hundred like and super fast just
but i mean they gotta fly and they're making noises dude yeah they're loud it's a loud fight
it's oh gosh i mean the insanity of like how annoying that flight would be.
If I think if you can get one by the head, you can swing it around and it's a weapon.
Yeah.
Oh, interesting.
And if you can get a couple, now you got a couple of weapons.
Interesting.
Just flapping them around.
Yeah.
Ripping off beaks, using your own little beaks now on your fingers.
They might start fighting each other.
Yeah.
There's a hundred of them.
Like they're going to get in there. They're going to, I mean, they're going of them. They're going to get in there.
I mean, they're going to trample some of them on their own.
Yeah.
Okay.
And that's like a lion is like, yo, it's just me and you.
But even if they killed 10, there's still 90 of them.
That's something.
With a lion, he's just looking at you going, it's me and you.
something with a lion he's just looking at you going it's me and you and you can i mean you could really like put the head of us like in your fingers like this with their neck and like slip it
out i think he could rip their head off yeah yeah uh i think he could wheeler garrett the topic of
who would win a fight between a moose versus bear became a heated argument for my friend group in high school and ended up leading to the biggest argument we ever had.
My friend, Sam Snyder, claimed he could beat 12 12-year-olds in a fight.
Half their friend group said this was ridiculous.
The other half, not so much.
We even went as far to ask our friend's 12 friends 12 year old brother to rally up 11 of his
friends it's been years and we still fight over this sometimes so they were the topic of who'd
want to fuck to moose versus bear became a heated argument from our friends group
oh and led to the argument of that could you beat 12 12 yearolds in a fight. Girls or boys? I guess it's boys.
It all depends on how vicious you can be, right?
If you're just playing, I think they take you.
Yeah.
But if they're like, this is vicious, then you, you know, I think you could win.
Mm-hmm.
This all of a sudden feels a lot more serious than the other ones.
Well, the size of the 12-year-old kids.
I mean, some of these kids are big.
Well, that's true, too. I mean mean that's just yeah but they still don't have your your
mentality is just so different yeah like you're you know if you're older you are you're like i'll
do this to the death and if you're 12 you're gonna be like well i don't want to get hurt yeah you've
never even thought there's a point yeah a point where you kind of go.
I got a life to live.
Yeah.
You pop a couple of them quick.
I think they're going to.
And are these 12 year olds neighborhood kids or are they, you know, living out on the streets?
I think it's, I think that's an argument that can go either ways.
I do.
I think he can beat up 12, 12 year olds.
I don't know.
I think I do know.
And the answer is no.
Yeah.
It's really going to be the, what's's the guy fighting yeah what is your you know i'd have to see a 12 year old i don't
know what a 12 year old looks like harper's 10 yeah harper 12 harper's gonna take me yeah
yeah he's got two more years left and then then she's really going to start running her mouth at him.
Yeah.
Tell us about electric e-bikes.
If you're still thinking about your mom this month,
why not think outside of the box?
Moms do a lot.
Why not give her her very own electric e-bikes?
Yeah.
Laura rides our electric e-bike.
I'm a giant fan of these things. They're so fun. Uh,
it's like riding, you know, a motorcycle or a scooter, but it's a bike and you just pedal and you can, you can have it go with, you don't even pedal at all. It's just a very easy thing to get
around. If you live in a neighborhood, it's super fun to go around, but you can go take it on the
trail. Maybe for two seconds, think this about the titans and not about dusty sleigh
well you know what i agree but you know what i liked going down there and and doing you know 25
takes and uh i feel in the end 6 30 in the morning they did get a good side of me one of my favorite
things is they also included these cards in the tweets where they said, who was your favorite cameo? And they still listed me.
And people are like, where was he?
I replied, Dusty Slate.
Yeah.
If you go forward a little bit,
this is, we filmed this at seven in the morning.
We had to be down there at 6.30 in the morning.
Welcome to 545.
So if you're just listening,
it's a continuous shock moving through a bar.
Right now we're seeing Seamus, the wrestler, who's a very cool guy.
Very nice.
Very nice.
And then he's at the bar.
Then he's going to approach us, the four of us, just hanging out at this bar.
And then they go downstairs after us.
That was filmed at a different time.
We were only there when the upstairs people.
There you go.
Seamus bumps into Nate.
Two thumbs spargazzi there. Yeah. we were only there when the upstairs people there you go Seamus bumps into Nate two thumbs there yeah and uh Nate and Seamus have a moment yeah we were cracking up because
well yeah what should have happened they cut me out because I didn't run they didn't cut you out
yeah because you didn't I was right yeah maybe well you were being different yeah that's to be
fair as we did this at the beginning it was like was like, all right, that's all run.
It was going to be that you guys run away and I'm left alone.
And that was the plan.
But Dusty could not get over the fictionalness of this.
That he goes, we wouldn't run and leave him like that.
Which is very loyal.
Yeah, that's very nice.
But he couldn't even, they, we, we had to change the whole
thing.
Cause Dusty's like, I wouldn't run.
I don't like the idea that here we are a team here.
And then our first, you know, real display out as a team, we're leaving you behind.
Yes.
I don't like that.
Yeah.
That, and I, I, I, that makes sense to me.
I, and I appreciate it yeah and uh it's and i
and i do understand that i mean i don't want to fight shit that's why we changed where i was like
well we're all just run yeah like we're all just it's much better yeah much and it was and uh i
think if you would have went the way aaron went if you'd ran the way aaron went you would have had a
solid well the only way i had went you would have had a solid
well the only way i had the only reason i had to run that way is because i ruined i think four
takes bumping into the camera yeah yeah on the exit it was tough and very embarrassing because
they'd be like hey everything was great except for uh yeah aaron bumped into well they would call you
out oh for sure i didn't yeah well there was one time where I was really getting into it,
and I'm behind you when Seamus is –
and I'm like, yeah, you want some of this?
And Aaron and Dusty were like, oh, that was pretty funny.
And then at that moment, the camera guy comes over and goes,
hey, could you not do that?
You're blocking the shot.
Yeah, that new thing you're doing?
Don't do it.
Yeah, it was like the one creative decision you'd made,
and you were so proud of it.
And then as soon as you said that, they're like,
you've got to cut that out.
You're blocking the shot. But you still get a little bit of attitude right there yeah yeah
there you go some acting yep most people don't didn't even know dusty was supposed to be in it
so they're just coming ah typical breakfast to see the back of his head oh yeah yeah
yeah really very cool to be a part of though and then all the cameos down here on the bottom
keith urban marcus king jelly roll jeff fisher i mean yeah it's a pretty crazy uh
yeah it was cool yeah i mean i'm honored to see it after it's very very cool yeah honestly once
again you're in it dude you're in it you're right at the beginning i mean the funny thing
is all these extras i mean you're in it maybe too much yeah that's i mean it looks like it's about you
that's actually a pretty crazy cameo because you got such a look yeah that they don't really need
to show you like the cameo is like all right you're like the easter egg that goes if they
know if people know you that's a fan they know. They know that can't be anybody but Dusty.
And they don't know that I ran from Seamus.
Yeah.
Me neither.
That's true.
Me neither.
You stayed there and fought him out.
Yeah.
We wrestled.
And I don't know if there are many people, Dusty, that could be recognized that blurry from that distance.
That's true.
You've just got such a unique look.
I think you're lucky that this worked out like this.
You know what?
Now that you frame it like this, I am.
I do feel lucky.
That's a solid.
I think they honestly probably thought, we don't have Dusty in.
And then right here, they go, I think they did this on purpose to get you in that shot right there.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Now, the other thing, too, is they emailed and asked for me alone.
So I don't know.
You know?
I'm joking.
Yeah.
It was a very cool video.
Titans really killed it with the schedule release because then they also had the other video.
That went viral.
Yeah, that went viral.
That was so funny.
Yeah.
And it's crazy. Oh, the man on the street stuff went viral. Yeah, that went viral. That was so funny. Yeah. And it's crazy.
Oh, the man on the street stuff?
Yeah.
Yeah, that was great.
It was great to be like, this was supposed to be the cool video.
Then they just have a random thing that's like, boy, that's the funniest thing we've ever seen.
I think teams will try to copy that.
And I like that they put in who they were saying.
Yeah.
They were just legit.
That's what made it so good that they really did it.
Teams changed their logo
for a few days to match it to match what was said in the titan video yeah like the falcons changed
their like twitter page to the atlanta i forgot what they were red stallions or whatever they
said they like played along yeah i mean that was awesome the bar whoever thought of that
yeah that's really smart That's really smart.
That's really smart.
The bartender in this though.
I don't even remember that guy being a bartender while we were there.
Well, that's the thing.
None of these people were here when we were doing it.
No, no.
I mean, upstairs, the guy talking to the cameras.
Well, Josh Hedley was there with us.
Josh Hedley.
I don't think he's in this.
Yeah.
He was the bartender.
I felt like the whole day while we were there.
How would they edit that together?
Where do they cut?
There were a couple places where they just do.
Where's the cut after this?
They let it just play out.
So you, we run away from Seamus right here and then it'll pan to the stairs and you can see.
See, there's like a moment where there's no people in the shot and they can change it right there.
So it's like right when that guy walked by.
Yeah. And it, but it right there. So it's like right when that guy walked by. Yeah.
And it,
but it's done really seamlessly,
really well.
It looks like we're all at the bar at the same time.
So good.
But this was probably filmed in like four different kind of time blocks,
you know,
like I don't think jelly roll was here the same time Keith Urban was right,
but it sure looks like it all happened at the same time.
No.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean the,
this bottom half,
these people were not here when we filmed.
None of the bottom half was there.
The top half was all real.
Yeah.
But then all this bottom one is filmed a separate time.
That's pretty fun.
I mean, Jeff Fisher to do it,
I mean, it's a...
Yeah, it was cool, man.
Yeah, this is a great idea, too. I mean it's a yeah it was cool man yeah that
this is a great idea too
I mean the Titans really
they you know
they killed it
but that's how the content goes now
it's like the thing you work so hard on
that looks so great
barely gets views
and then the thing you think
well this is not going to do well
goes viral
but that is such a
this is a fun video
like it is a very fun video
where it's you know it's just the the way it's just the way it's shot, the way it's done, it looks super cool.
And then Keith Urban up at the end.
Totally.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Thank you to the Titans for letting us be a part of it.
Thanks for having us.
Very cool.
I had no idea Keith Urban was so tatted up.
Yeah.
He's a cool guy.
He's a rock star.
Yeah.
Yeah He's a cool guy
He's a rock star
Yeah
There's another story
That a lot of people
Have sent us
Based on one of your
Old jokes
About the
The guy sucking
People's toes
In the hotel room
Have you seen that
Yeah
And
Oh
Is that why
I've been getting
Tagged in that
I think so
I never made
The connection
I was like
Why is everybody
Tagging me
In this creepy dude
Sucking people's toes
Do you know
The story Dusty
No
It was at the
Hotel next to the bridge
yeah the hilton right the hilton he worked there was it the night of your show no okay i don't
think so i don't think so i mean no one no one was thinking that till you said it right now
you're acting like that were you doing it was that no no he goes is this like that one time you did
it okay somebody sent this to me and then they pointed out they arrested the guy at his house in Lebanon.
Oh, always lock that inside lock when you're staying at a hotel.
I don't know who's not locking that lock.
Yeah.
I do.
I always lock it, too.
And then sometimes now I don't always because sometimes if someone needs to get in my room,
like if Chase needs to get in my room to get something,
or sometimes it's like someone's got to go grab something, you know,
so I don't sometimes.
Well, there's a way to get around it inside lock.
I mean, what used to be the equivalent of the chain.
Yeah, you don't get around that.
How do you get around that?
They have a way of doing it if they have to.
Yeah.
Well,
but I bet it makes noise.
Oh,
you can't do it covertly.
No,
yeah,
yeah.
So you'll wake up.
Well,
people pointed out
they arrested the guy
at his house in Lebanon
and sure enough,
I looked and I graduated
high school with this guy.
No way.
I know him.
Are you serious?
Yeah,
yeah.
Was he your buddy?
No, I mean, I only saw him at class reunions, but I know him.
I mean, we kept in touch.
Wow.
David Neal, yeah.
That's wild.
What did y'all have in the water out there?
That's Lebanon for you.
That's Lebanon for you.
Because there's a lot of toe suckers out there.
Yeah.
I am proud of Lebanon.
I've got to mention this.
One of the Titans draft picks, Colton Dow, from Lebanon,
and I grew up with his dad.
I've known his dad all my life.
Yeah, that's cool.
So it kind of balanced out what happened with this other guy.
Well, I'd maybe separate those two stories.
I mean, we're literally talking about you.
I went to high school with this guy, but I am proud of Lebanon.
Well, that's a bad mark on Lebanon.
This guy, though, it's like, what a weird, it's so weird.
Here's the thing.
It's not a bad mark on Lebanon.
It's just, I'll be honest, it's probably what people just think Lebanon does.
It's going to be what people think Tennessee does.
Like, you know, they're just everywhere else.
We know.
But, you know, we don't care what they all think.
We know it's a weirdo.
It says Brennan reportedly screamed when he found Neil on his toes.
Oh, gosh.
And I like that he immediately recognized him as a hotel staff.
I don't remember what anybody looks like at the hotel.
I think he'd already called the guy and asked him for some help or something.
He came and helped him with his TV the day before.
Oh, gosh.
Yeah.
Bit of a bummer, the whole story.
Yeah, yo.
That's, yeah, I wonder if that guy's going to sue Hilton.
Can you sue Hilton?
Probably.
I mean, I don't trust anybody out here like that.
I'm locking those doors up.
Yeah, that's so crazy.
That's crazy that you knew.
Yeah.
Like, what was the last time you talked to him the night before this?
Did you, I mean, did you recognize him from the mugshot?
As soon as I saw the name, I was like, David Neal.
Oh, yeah.
Wow.
And I looked at his Facebook page.
I thought we might have been Facebook friends.
We weren't. But his last photo was from our class reunion
wow what'd he say did you talk to him him and brian arm and arm
i missed our last reunion even though i helped plan it because that's me you and leanne did
that show in mississippi and i missed it but so i guess it's been our 25-year reunion, 25 years ago now, that I last saw him.
Yeah.
But I've seen him every five years.
Well, you'll see him at the next one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wait, your 25-year reunion was 25 years ago?
I was joking.
I was trying to get you guys to the punch.
What year was this reunion?
It was the 30.
The 30.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Well, y'all might do one coming up because you might need to talk this out.
Yeah.
Well, our 30-year reunion was 2020, and it was delayed because of COVID.
Y'all are the age group that just can't get together.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it's just too risky.
It's too risky.
Too risky.
Too risky people.
Yeah. So our 35-year reunion is in two years. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. And it's just too risky. It's too risky. Too many people. Yeah.
So our 35 year reunion
is in two years.
So.
Oh.
Well now y'all got
someone famous.
Yeah.
It's going to be
the talk of the town man.
What if he shows up
and he's like
yeah.
He goes
that was a wild time man.
That would be great though
if he got out
or whatever
and he just shows up
he's like
yeah you guys knew
what I was into.
Hey can you give me a discount at the Hilton?
Yeah.
All right.
Well, when I am downtown staying at the Hilton,
I use game time.
Again.
Yeah.
That was, again, not the way.
Maybe separate this whole ad from what we've been talking about.
Yeah.
Separate the ad, but you separate you talking about you and Lebanon.
You've done yourself no favors.
Well, I was going to do Colton Dow playing for the Titans.
I'm going to buy Titans tickets on game time.
There you go.
There we go.
You shut it down too fast.
No, no.
You could have brought it back up.
All right.
Colton Dow's from Lebanon.
I went to school with his dad.
That's awesome.
What did you call my mama?
I have an animatronic Rodney Dangerfield that you push a little button and he moves and tells jokes.
Does that count as a robot?
You're talking about an electronic action figure?
Well, he's just on a stand and you push it and then he starts telling jokes.
Oh.
I don't know if that's a robot.
It's not a robot.
You got a Hulk Hogan clock.
Yeah.
Do you have a fish that sings on the walls?
I don't have that.
I used to want one of those so bad, dude.
Those were so funny.
Oh, Billy Bass? Is that what it was called? Yeah, and it bend up and yeah it is fun take me to the river
oh yeah i would sing that song drop me in the you would know the song i just got i just got
the litter litter robot for our cat and i don't know if that's technically a robot but robot is
in the name so what does it do? It cleans it on its own?
It scoops itself.
It does everything itself.
Yeah.
It changed my life.
Does your family like that you have a cat?
We had a cat growing up, but it never came inside.
It was an outdoor cat named Cow.
That was its name.
And it got hit by a milk truck.
Wow.
Okay.
Okay.
I love the specificity of that whole thing. A cat named Cow that got hit by a milk truck. Wow. Okay. Okay. I love the specificity
of that whole thing.
A cat named cow
that got hit by a milk truck.
We had a cat named cow
and a dog named Yipper
that we had to keep
chained up to the basketball goal
because it kept
biting the kids.
And it lasted
maybe a month.
Brian's car.
You block somebody?
Apparently.
Yeah.
You do that a lot.
Just pulls in
right in the middle
of the driveway.
I pull it sideways.
Diagonally, yeah.
Yeah, I block everybody.
And he goes,
what are we...
Oh, other people
are coming today?
Yeah, so I think
we have a Roomba.
Do you have a Roomba?
I don't have a Roomba.
I saw a...
Roomba?
I saw a mowing
a grass robot. Like a mowing the grass Roomba. I saw a mowing the grass Roomba.
I saw it this weekend driving to, I forget where, to the show somewhere.
It was going under a tree, and it was mowing a whole yard.
Yeah, it was like that.
Now, is it remote controlled, or does it just work?
I didn't get out and ask the guy,
but it was,
we were driving by,
so you might already know more.
Honey, I Strunk the Kids,
they had a remote control lawnmower. Yeah, that's a good movie.
It is a good movie.
I thought about
Sean Harper that movie.
I can't remember.
I feel like there's one curse word
that I don't like, but.
I've never seen it.
I feel like those movies
always throw one.
It's mainly the weird
makeout scene
in the middle of the thing.
It seems unnecessary to me.
Yeah.
Have you ever used VidAngel?
No.
It takes out all the bad parts of movies.
Oh, really?
You can watch the movie and they take it out for you.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, they got sued, right?
I'm pretty sure they got sued.
Oh, yeah, they did.
It's because they were.
Yeah.
Yeah. It's a giant., right? Yeah. Yeah.
It's a dry bar.
I mean, it's a giant.
I think I know the guy.
I actually think the guy that owns it.
I've met him in Utah because we've talked.
Yeah.
And I don't know if that's...
Because the concept of this is the idea.
But they were taking movies.
It was like, but the copyright, you can't just take and take out whole scenes or whatever.
I don't know.
Something.
So we've been trying to do this for a month.
A month ago, New York Police Department added robots to their department.
It's called a Diggy Dog.
They call him spot for fun.
And it, uh, it's a robot dog that goes in and places that might be too dangerous.
And, um, you know, you can do a, you can do a lot of things.
Weigh 70 pounds, runs three and a half miles per hour, can climb stairs.
And, uh, people were upset about it.
They tried it a couple of years ago and people got so upset about it that they stopped it.
But then they got a new mayor now in New York City.
He's the former police chief.
And he's like, we're going to use it.
And when a.
Robocop, here we come.
When a parking garage collapsed a few weeks ago, they used it to go in to search for survivors because it's safer than obviously sending a human.
Right.
So it's been put to use.
Safer unless it doesn't work well.
The dog comes out.
Nobody's in there.
There's just people all over the place.
Well, I guess that's true.
Mayor Bill de Blasio is, quote, glad the DigiDog was put down.
It is creepy, alienating, and sends the wrong message to New Yorkers.
New Yorkers said, yeah, the first time they were like, we didn't ask for this.
But then the new mayor says, it helps.
I'm going to use anything that helps us keep people safe.
I know.
But then.
Yeah.
San Francisco, I think.
You go down a road.
We're going to use a moral-less robot to police people.
And they start arming it.
Yeah, yeah.
That's going to be a real problem.
So that's one they have there.
They have one in Times Square
that just goes around
and just looks for,
you know,
crime.
And then people,
if people are a victim of crime,
they can go up to it
and tell it what,
what happened.
And it will report it
back to the police station.
The victim will tell
the robot what happened.
Yeah.
Okay.
It's called the K5
Autonomous Security Robot or ASR for short real personal policing and and then it but how can it
it just rides around and then i think i said i'm not sending you links to these and not these
okay i'm keeping it and then uh and then so it that's crazy um yeah it looks like a bread maker just kind of rolls up to you and you speak into it
but it can tell you if it's uh you can just order this that's what's crazy it's like you can just
anybody can order this uh how to buy yeah it's currently they currently have these at malls
warehouses hospitals airports casinos i haven't seen these so you they currently have these at malls, warehouses, hospitals, airports, casinos.
I haven't seen these before.
So you could just have one at your house and be like, I want you just to be outside when we go to sleep.
And then you just.
Patrol.
It patrols the house.
You could do.
You could.
You really could.
Like if you did, say you, you know, yeah, you just have it like, be be like yeah it just patrols the house and like
you know but i feel like what's it cost i don't know it's one of those they don't have the price
on here you gotta see can you google how much one calls yeah i mean it's got to be crazy but i mean
i guess if you once it goes around one way then the burglar would just run in well the diggy dogs
that first one we showed they got two of them for $739,000.
And they used it from money seized in criminal forfeiture cases, whatever that is.
There you go.
That's where a lot of loose money goes.
They go, nah, this guy, we found it.
You go, all right, you can use it.
You rent the robot for a year, and it costs $70,000 to $80,000 a year to rent it.
So less than a lot than paying an employee with
benefits yeah yeah so but it is phase us out that's how that is how that is true that's how
they phase out uh people and then yeah less but it's crazy that as much as, I mean, once they get this going, then the second, it's $30,000 or $10,000.
It goes down.
Yeah, and then they'll have robots to just arrest us.
So there'll be no talking to the robot to be like, you know, because, you know, you could do something wrong and then like have a little conversation and then maybe they go, all right, we're going to write you a warning.
But the robot has none of that empathy type thing. It goes, no,
you've committed a crime. You're going to jail. Yeah.
It's like you jaywalked and it could be you literal jaywalk. Are you,
we're off the crosswalk just a little bit. Like, where does it,
where is you got to set a boundary? Yeah.
So where does it, the boundary kind of get set?
You know.
The third thing that New York police just added is sticky GPS.
Where now if they're in a police chase, they can fire this thing at your car.
It'll stick to your car.
It can track you that way.
So they can avoid dangerous chases.
But then you just get out of the car.
Switch cars.
And then the helicopter always tracks them too.
Yeah.
I don't think you know that you've been hit with one, right?
Well, I guess that could be true.
I bet they wish that article didn't come out.
And then, this is also New York, unrelated to the police they have trash cans that go around i think also in times square yeah that robot trash cans go around they put a camera on it just to
see how people would react would they be mean to it would they columbia university did a study to
see how people are going to treat robots so there was a camera on it and there's video of this on
there and most people were pretty nice to it just comes up to it and they throw the trash in a few people kicked it yeah did some stuff like that but the cameras
were just to do a study on how people are going to start treating robots in the future well a robot
that's taking our trash that seems like would be very nice to it and a robot trying to give us a
ticket well his idea though are you going to be the robot,
that robot taking,
it's taking your trash today.
What's it going to do?
Right, right.
They're making the, you know.
Grab stuff out of your hands.
Yeah, they're making the video to go like,
well, how people treat robots.
You're like, well, I mean,
how's that robot going to treat us?
Yes.
You know?
And then.
It's early enough
that there's still a novelty to it.
I bet people are like amused.
Oh, yeah.
This thing comes up.
But 20 years from now, when you're used to it, I bet your reaction is going to be a little different.
You're going to be annoyed.
I mean, how quick are they going to be where we're going to be dealing robots?
It's happening so quick now.
Isn't Domino's delivering pizza with robots now?
In like LA?
A self-driving car.
Yeah. You know what?
We saw it when I was at Ball State.
Volunteer State.
Muncie, Indiana.
Muncie, Indiana.
Ball State.
They had an Uber Eats, and it was just a robot.
And it just goes down the sidewalk.
Right.
And it pops up, and you grab your food out of it. And then it shuts, and then it drives back to where it goes, and it's just down the sidewalk, and it pops up, and you grab your food out of it,
and then it shuts, and then it drives back to where it goes, and it's just on the sidewalk.
Wow.
Wow.
And that was at Ball State. I mean, these kids were ordering food. I mean, we walked by it two
or three times. And like, it's just, you ought to be living in an autonomous vehicle, grabbing your
order is easy. And it's like, just goes to your house, drops it it off and then you uh that's it i mean no one
bothered it people they just used to it like that's where they're going to do it they do it
at colleges these college kids just get used to it and then then when it's in the real world they're
like yeah we had that college these colleges don't know is you're like yeah but the one you did in
college was just gearing you up to now right're up against the wall with a robot.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Well, somebody told me truck drivers were like 10% of the population,
like working population.
I don't know if that number's true, but I know it's a lot.
And if you got this kind of technology for truck drivers,
I mean, think of all the jobs that would be gone.
Yeah.
If you're a truck, you should be concerned.
Yeah.
For sure.
That's maybe one of the first jobs to go.
And it's like in most states, it's like the number one job in the state.
Yeah.
Yeah, they make good money.
Yeah.
It's insane.
Yeah, Elon Musk, and he's not the only one, but he thinks that they're going to take over all jobs,
that there's any physical labor or anything like that,
and we need just a guaranteed income that everyone just gets.
He's not the only one that thinks that.
That you need a guarantee.
Yes, because so many jobs are going to be automated and go away
that we're going to have to have some type of basic income just to survive.
He's one of the main dudes making this happen.
I know this is horrible, but I'm doing it.
Amazon's certainly doing it.
Yeah.
Well, he always talks about AI, right?
He's not on board with that.
Or you got to be careful with it, but then-
But then he's one of the-
Yeah, yeah.
Then he wants to plug our brain to a computer.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He always says it.
He always talks about it.
Neuralink.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
I mean, they talk about the singularity which is when computers get us or ai gets as
smart as humans and then passes us in 2029 is the year that they said it would happen
that's i'd like to be living in the woods by that time in six years yeah that's quick you're pretty
close yeah i'm working on it i mean i feel like there's a special out yeah just take the special
as part of this piece of the puzzle. Yes.
Yeah.
Doesn't it feel like with chat GPS and all that that's happened this year?
I mean, chat GPS.
All right, I'm going to be a little behind on this.
Was it chat AI?
Chat GPT, I think.
GPT.
All right.
Sorry.
Doesn't it seem like it's going to happen quickly?
Yeah, it's all happening super, super quickly. And it's kind of unnerving to think about.
Well, the AI thing is like, aren't they people writing articles and stuff for their right? You've written papers.
They saw I thought I read somewhere that it was like, it's not fair because the teacher uses the AI to grade a paper that they're making the kid write. Yeah. So the teacher uses AI and doesn't have to grade the paper.
But then the kid gets in trouble for using AI to write the paper.
And you're like, well, you can't do both.
It's not fair to...
Someone just told me their son used AI to write his...
He ran for some kind of class president or something and used AI to write his speech,
like to win.
And he won.
She said it was not a very good speech, but said he won.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, like who's going to believe what people don't, what's crazy is the media doesn't,
like, you know, people already have weird trust with media anyway.
And you add this in that I think that you're not even writing this.
Yeah.
The communication goes, the whole system crumbles.
And not even just writing, but pictures and video.
Anything.
And everything will be so easily fixed.
We walked through an art in Greenville.
They had a big art festival down in there.
Greenville's a very cool town.
It is a really great place.
And then Rory Scovel's from Greenville.
His sister just came out.
But this festival, it went so far and so long.
And we were shocked at how far. I lost my dad at one point. this festival it went so far and so long and uh like it was like
we were like shocked
at like how far
lost my dad at one point
he's just gone
just gone
just I mean
we look over
and it's just
he's just blended in
yeah
doesn't just
gotta find him
uh
so
when we were going
to our fest
I was looking at
cause I was
I thought
I was like
oh maybe I'll get uh for Mother's Day I was looking at, cause I was, I thought I was like, Oh, maybe I'll get, uh, for mother's day.
I was trying to see if I could find something.
Laura likes, uh, you know, like local art, people that do paintings like that.
And, uh, she, uh, and so we, I was looking at it, but then there's part of me that goes
like some of them, you're like, I don't know if I believe everything.
Cause some of the stuff being done, you're like, well, what?
Like, are you just, this is like your, you know, one was, this one girl out there, her art was like the best one, I thought.
And it was like.
So like Roy telling Pam.
Yeah.
Your art was the best art.
The best art of all the art.
That's what I told her.
You got the prettiest art of all the art that I have seen.
But is it like just their idea, like it's a giraffe,
and giraffe like talking to a mice or something, a mouse.
I can't remember what it was.
A giraffe talking to a mouse.
Yeah.
But you just say that, and like, you know,
and so your creativity is like, I just, you said giraffe mouse and then you had a computer.
So she didn't even paint it?
I don't know.
Oh, I didn't ask her.
This is the thing you showed us, right?
Yeah.
So I mean, what point do I believe that art is becoming, like, I didn't even buy anything because I'm like, well, I don't, you'd want someone to make it.
And I don't know if I believe people are making it.
Yeah, with this, we're all artists.
Yeah, everybody can be an artist.
If you can think it, it can draw it.
Yeah.
Which I'd like to get into, by the way.
Yeah.
So that made me another thing that try to draw a giraffe talking to a mouse.
Giraffe talking to a mice?
Yeah, talking to a mice.
And what do you want?
No, you're going to put mice?
Giraffe talking to a mice.
Put mice. Well, I'm just talking to mice. No. To a mice. Do what do you want? Did you? No, you go put mice. We're not talking to a mice. Put mice.
Well, I'm just like talking to mice.
No.
To a mice.
Do it how I said it.
Make it an incoherent prompt.
This is his art.
Talking to a mice.
What do we want?
A painting?
Do we want a photorealistic image?
It's like I'm talking to Brian over here.
I'm like, hey, maybe have fun, Aaron.
And do something.
Well, I'm trying to see.
Look, all this works with formal logic,
all this programming.
So you got to make sure that it makes sense.
I don't know.
What if you just put that in and press generate?
But you got to give it, let's give it a little bit of direction here.
What do you want it to create?
I say there's no direction.
Like an oil painting?
Oil painting.
Let's see what it does.
Let's do an expressive oil painting.
I mean, why don't you just paint it then?
That looks ridiculous.
Is that it?
Is that it? Is that it?
No, it's loading.
That's an example of something else.
I was like, artists are safe for now, man.
Here it is.
Look.
Look at that.
Yeah.
Wow.
That's really good.
Yeah, it's really good.
See, I mean, like if that is.
That's not even.
Like who am I going to believe?
It's a pigeon.
Well, I said two of mice, so it's a little confusing.
Oh, that's pretty cool.
It's a mouse pigeon, though.
Yeah.
Look at that.
A lot of tongue.
The tongue.
The long tongue.
When the word mice came out and...
Yeah, click on that.
What is that?
Are those all yours?
These are previous prompts that I've had on YouTube.
That's going to be embarrassing.
I'm going to clear those.
How embarrassing. I was experimenting on there, dude dude and you just type in stuff yeah but see what if you did so
but the giraffe talks to a mouse acrylic okay acrylic and now you want to give anything else
any other kind of nah descriptions no how do you spell acrylic? There it is.
There we go.
That's not good.
That's a robot.
Holding a balloon.
But yeah, the trick is you see people that are really good at this.
They're so good at entering the prompt.
Look at that.
Yeah, these are good.
Yeah, these are really good.
I mean, that's a great painting.
That's a great painting that someone would buy.
Yep.
That's what I mean, that's a great painting. That's a great painting that someone would buy. Yep. That's what I mean.
So I'm looking at this art, and if I know this exists,
how do I know that you're not doing it?
I think you have to see it happen.
You almost have to see it. I know.
It's got to be something because these are getting so –
that's so perfectly imperfect.
That's the crazy part about it.
I think if it's on, if it's oil painting on a canvas, you can at least even feel the texture.
That's true.
I mean, you know.
But I could have this printed with texture.
Yeah.
Oh, could you?
Oh, I guess they got 3D printers.
I couldn't, but I could, you know, somebody could.
So it like, so that, yeah, yeah when I saw it you're just going
I don't know if I so I'm just looking at you typing you know it's like you know like if you
the the the paintings like uh what's what's the guy's you know famous people with the ears
Pablo yeah Picasso Picasso who was the guy is that the guy that cut off his ear? Is that the one with the ear? Van Gogh. Van Gogh. The Da Vinci coat.
Yeah.
Van Gogh.
Like, there was, you know, those guys truly, like, the art, like, meant something or it's this whole big thing.
Right.
You know, he has, like, the one picture was, like, a guy painted a picture of Van Gogh painting.
Because as he was painting, he painted the picture.
And that's the story like that
was a whole thing and then now it's like you're just typing in this stuff that does it I don't
and I'm going to this art fair and it makes it hard to believe it's a Van Gogh painting of a
giraffe talking to a mice yeah and so it makes it hard to believe the other thing this girl had
I don't know if it's a girl so I shouldn't say that because I didn't see them.
You're just guessing based on what the painting look like?
Yes.
Not very good. But a chick did this.
But they go, no, no, I don't, I don't know why. Maybe. But it was, they said on their shipping makes me miserable.
They put that on the,
so,
so the shoot,
the shoot was there.
They weren't even out there.
Yeah.
And they just had a sign there.
I mean,
if you,
if you bought one,
someone was,
they're probably sitting behind it.
Yeah.
And so,
and I understand that like,
but if so you go through and then say they're sitting back there and then you were like,
I want that one.
I think most would be, they would ship it it to you because it's a giant thing.
That's like unless you're buying like a one that's small, like it's a pretty big thing that you're like, yeah, I don't know if I want to carry around this art fair for four hours.
Yeah.
And so but she put on their shipping.
It makes me miserable.
Me too.
And he puts it on the outside.
It does. As if to say, I will be annoyed if miserable. Me too. And it puts it on the outside. It does.
As if to say, I will be annoyed if you buy something and ask for it to be shipped.
Yeah.
That's not on me.
Yeah.
The purchaser.
Yeah.
That problem does not exist in my world.
I am buying something from you.
Right, right.
This is the problem that I have with a lot of like, you know, when I hosted at the beginning of my career i i never liked hosting
i was never good at it it's not the audience's responsibility that i don't like to host it's
not the comedy club's responsibility that i go i but i don't like to host yeah that's just what i
had to do you should open your sets with that just like you know i'm i don't like doing this
yeah but it's not your fault it's not the club's fault it doing this. Yeah. But it's not your fault or the club's fault.
It's not their problem.
It's what I got to get.
If shipping makes me miserable, then I got to get my business to a point that I don't deal with shipping.
That's the part.
It doesn't matter.
Yeah, shipping is not good.
Or just say, will not ship.
You could say that, too.
You could say, will not ship, and then you let what happens because of that happen.
Yeah.
But it's the idea that makes me not want to buy.
I didn't buy the art because it was – and I might have got –
because they looked cool, even though I don't know if they were real or not.
So you had a couple issues with them.
Yeah.
Well, now I'm just saying because we were talking about this,
you don't know the difference.
Right.
But the shipping measure made me leave because it's just like,
what are you, now I got to worry about, oh, yeah,
it's a nightmare to go ship something.
That's not my responsibility.
Right.
You're just selling too much art.
You're just selling too, you know what I mean?
It's like, oh, you can't go to the post office, huh?
You're putting your stuff onto me?
That's not, I don't have any.
How many paintings are you boxing up?
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know what?
I went to a thing like that this weekend too in Knoxville,
and they had these little ceramic things,
and it was like they had some little mushrooms for like $20.
It was too much for the mushroom,
but I've been trying to decorate this one little bathroom with mushroom stuff.
I like it.
I'm into it.
So I wanted to buy it.
I had $20 in my hand.
The lady's like fumbling around with their square. And then there's like, I assume her husband
sitting in a chair behind there. And I'm like, all I want to do is give you this money and leave
with this thing. And the guy sits there. He never addresses me. He never moves. And I ended up
walking off because i'm not
gonna stand here all day i just feel like the the it's like you're down here already in the hot sun
stand up take the money yeah are you selling too many of these 20 mushrooms yeah that you can't
you'd rather pack it all up than take the 20 from that hand and that's what it feels. The vibe of stuff to me, these people,
like the people that do stuff,
like the one that I saw on that
is you can tell the difference
between someone that's like
excited for you to be there
and someone that's like,
they don't need to be doing this.
It's just,
that's how it came off.
Shipping makes me miserable.
She's not saying that
she's not going to ship it.
I guess she would ship it.
I mean, something, the painting,
that I don't know if she put in a computer or not.
It's like $1,700.
Yeah.
This is not a $20 thing.
Not that any of that matters.
I don't care if it was $1.
What happens in your business side
is not the customer's responsibility.
Your problems are not the customer's responsibility.
They don't got to throw on it.
But they're starting to do that.
That's the tipping thing.
I just read something about tipping.
Wow.
They're starting to do that with tipping.
$1,700?
$1,700.
And she's like, oh, I can't ship it.
Yeah.
Oh, that would make me so miserable to sell a $1,700.
Yeah.
On what?
I don't...
Something that you are putting into a thing.
If someone wanted to buy my art
for $1,700,
I would go to the post office
with a smile on my face.
I'd drive it to their home.
Yeah.
Why wouldn't the person
just take it?
They're on the spot anyway.
Well, you don't want
to carry it around with you.
I mean, why?
It's a giant painting.
It is.
What are you going to,
you've spent $1,700
on a painting
that you're going to maybe throw in the back of your car with your kids and you're like where are you gonna put
it you gotta carry it around and carry it around the rest of the day it's a whole thing and you're
spending a lot of money on a painting that you're gonna hang in a wall that you want it to be taken
care of and you want to be properly packaged you're an artist you probably know how to probably
that's part of it if you don't want to be a part of that side of the business of it
i don't know what to say then you need you need to pay someone to go sell your art you're like
that is fine with doing that carrying your painting around the festival makes me miserable
yeah my my whole drive in my whole career is to not have to do the things that make me miserable
in my whole career is to not have to do the things that make me miserable. That's, that's,
that's the, that's your drive. You, that's what you use to make you get to a point you that, I mean, that's the most motivation I've ever had anything. If I didn't want to, I don't want to
stand on this corner and hand out flyers. That makes me, it made me miserable i had to stand out it was 15 degrees out you think i
wanted to and i don't even like talk like i'm embarrassed i don't i'm scared i'm nervous doing
this because people were walking by i'm like we got a great comedy show tonight and you get
i didn't like it i don't i mean i really did not like it but that's not that guy's responsibility
that's what i had to do at the moment. So that's
the motivation you use to go. And let me tell you what, I don't want to be doing this. I'm going to
do it now because I have to do it, but I will not be doing this. I promise you that. And now I'm not
doing it. And all of those little things that make you miserable is what motivates you. You can't
just put shipping makes me miserable. And you go,
that's not how you get out of shipping. You don't get out of it by just telling the audience or telling your customers, I don't want to do the thing that makes me not happy.
I get out of it because I've become so big of an artist that we're shipping it to you. And I say,
we, cause I'm not shipping it to you because I don't like shipping. I don't want to deal with it,
but don't worry. We will get someone that will handle it for you.
And so you do that.
And if she doesn't want to ship, then guess what?
You got a friend that you go, I'll give you a hundred bucks or whatever you do.
You can take $5 from every sale and you just go get their info and you go ship it.
And I don't want to like I shipping drives me crazy.
It makes me miserable.
But you said they throw it on the purse.
Yeah.
I just,
yeah.
I mean,
I did not realize the painting was that price.
So I just,
it just changes everything.
It really does.
Yeah.
Like I'm miserable.
Cause I still like if people buy stuff off my merch and I am working on it,
I am working to get out of this.
But if people go to my website and buy something,
I go to the post office.
I hate it now, but cause I've been doing that for years, right?
And I've not dealt with it.
But that's not on them.
It's not their fault.
I don't have on my website.
Sending this to you makes me miserable.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's not even their worry.
Right.
I don't even – the customer deserves no burden given to it at all the price
is is what you're giving them they cannot feel any you know someone comes up they're like man i bet
you're tired and all this stuff that's not i don't ever want to put any of that burden on anybody
right that's an like if you go to a show if you go to a thing like
whatever i'm doing is i will i'll i'll handle it how i can handle the burden is not on you
it's not on the and if you're any kind of business the customer does not deserve the burden
you don't get a package of the burden put that as a price right and go well it's hard to get
the the the joy is you get to be,
you can do whatever you want.
The joy is you're in control
and you're in charge
or you're creating something.
Your vision is where it goes.
Like if you're waiting tables
and they're like,
can you get me another drink?
And you're like, yeah, it's downstairs.
Yeah.
But I'll go get it.
Yeah.
That's why we need robots.
Yes.
Running things.
We are.
This is whole thing about robots.
Yeah, we just turn, we love robots. You know what? Let's get some robots. Yeah, we need more. Yes. Running things. We are. This is the whole thing about robots. Yeah, we just turn and we love robots.
You know what?
Let's get some robots.
Yeah, we need more.
There'll be some advantages to it.
Would you get a massage from a robot?
I mean, you kind of sit in one of those chairs, but I don't like it.
I don't like those chairs.
At the airport, I do like those.
I don't like the...
It always hurts.
I don't mind.
I did one, and it had like the... It blew up like air. I always hurts. I don't mind. I did one, uh, and it had like the,
it blew up like air,
like air,
like those.
I like that.
Like,
it feels like the pressure and stuff is nice,
but I don't love the,
you know,
metal circular.
Yeah.
That stuff.
You're like that.
Those things hurt those seats at the airport.
Those kinds of things.
I only don't like the leg thing.
I feel like it's going to clamp down and then break,
and then my legs will be stuck in this thing.
Yeah.
That's a good feeling, though.
They sell machines now, though,
that do the full body massage from a robot.
Like your back, like you lay on a table.
Does it have human hands, looking hands?
I think so.
I sent you a video of it.
It does not.
I got all the videos pulled up, but that's, you know.
Just, what happened, bud?
You got,
it's kind of throwing a,
that's minor league today, huh?
You're doing minor.
He's major league.
You're minor.
It goes to you.
You don't know what's going on.
You didn't send me that link.
Ooh.
All right, go to your emails.
Now we got, ooh.
We're going to put the burden of all this on the audience.
Did they go?
Yeah.
Yeah, go ahead, Dusty.
All right.
Hey, you know, I don't know if you guys know this,
but no, that's not the right way to phrase it.
Are rising prices stressing you out?
Yeah.
If you're looking like shipping costs or something,
if you're looking for ways to
cut costs you need rocket money rocket money is a personal finance app that finds and cancels your
unwanted subscription monitors your spending and helps you lower your bills all in one place over
80 of people have subscriptions they forgot about and chances are you're one of them
like the stars app and i look forward to reading
it over and over again well we got the massage robot i'll get better at it all right let's see
and it looks like it feels pretty good i'll be it looks better than i thought but i still uh i mean
i'd rather have yeah that's getting in there yeah there's something about that if you have the fear
of this thing getting stuck on you or jamming you too
hard i mean because it's like this thing could have enough power to just break your back yeah
whoops sorry snap the rib yeah out of no and you can't do anything there's no way out of it and
it's it's that's that's the thing that i would keep people away as you go like i if it gets stuck
or if it gets whatever you can probably stop this
video i can't watching more of this video and then uh but it's i you know i i think you people
want personal stuff there's there's uh personality and people like it's it's you're not gonna i think
you will what will happen is it will be this is what what's going to happen. You're going to see robots involved more than you realize.
And then next thing you know, they're like, well, they're doing robots for this.
You're like, well, let's not do robots yet.
And then you're like, oh, by the way, you've only been using robots.
We just haven't really said anything about it.
Like you go McDonald's, like, you know, you're going to cut to like a robot's delivering the mail.
And you're like, well,
I don't know if we should do that. And they go, oh, that's the last one we did. We've done this
for 15 years. You've never gotten anything FedEx you've ever gotten. They don't even have people
that work there anymore. And you're like, what? All this stuff you wouldn't know about.
There's McDonald's in Fort Worth, Texas. It's all automated now. No people.
24 hours?
I don't know.
There's a video of that, too.
But it, yeah, I mean, it just.
It should be.
Well, that's what you want. If it's not 24 hours, I will be furious.
Well, that's what you want with a restaurant is to have no personal touch.
Well, that's McDonald's.
You don't go to McDonald's for a personal touch anyway, you know?
Well, you know me, I don't go at all, but.
Can you hit the, yeah, there you go. Yeah, turn that music off. You're having a personal touch anyway. Well, you know me. I don't go at all. Can you hit the...
Yeah, turn that music off.
I'm killing it today.
There are no employees at the counter.
You order there.
Come to the seat, give your order.
If it's not 24 hours,
then they should burn this place to the ground.
Yeah, I just feel like with food, it's like you do want somebody to be making it.
Yeah, I don't know how that works.
Or if there's a mistake.
Just be taken by robots and, yeah.
I bet there would be less mistakes, but that looks not good.
Burger looks okay.
It'll take you right to your table, too.
Oh, dude.
There's got to be one employee there making sure this place doesn't get burnt down.
I don't know.
I mean, well, but eventually, no one's going to be there.
And then, you know, you're going to go and, yeah.
What would the Chick-fil-A robot be like?
Who would? God bless you. yeah what would the chick-fil-a robot be like i might be sitting here with three robots what do you mean get rid of y'all yeah yeah
well let me pass the turing test that's what it's called huh the turing test isn't that what's that
comedy's gonna be safe that's where you are you interact with a robot and don't even realize it
you interact with artificial intelligence and don't realize it at all.
So imagine, you know, when you call like a customer service hotline and it's that automated and it's so annoying.
If that gets to a point where you are talking to it like it's a normal person, that it's past the Turing test.
Is there anything that's past it?
There's a lot of AI now.
I mean, look, you read an article that's written by AI.
Probably a lot of the ones you read, you don't even realize it.
Yeah, those are passing.
Yeah.
But I think there's customer service where people don't know they're talking to a computer, right?
Like a chat, like the chat on the website.
Yeah.
Well, I was thinking over the phone, but maybe it's just chat.
Oh, I've never seen it that well over the phone.
I always know.
You know right away.
I just read an article the other day.
AI is taking a lot of voiceover jobs.
Because now they would get these voice actors to come in and it would just learn their voice.
And then they can have it recreate anything.
So it's weird.
It's a lot of creative jobs that are going to go first. I hear that the writer strike that's happening right now is actually a part of it is that AI can now write TV scripts.
Somebody was saying like Ted Lasso or something.
I don't know if that's a show.
They use that example.
But had AI wrote an episode of that.
Really?
And it was – I don't know if it was one that was used, but it,
it wrote an episode that was as good as the other.
Well, look up,
did,
yeah,
look up AI Ted Lassen.
Uh,
and,
and,
and so that's like,
you know,
people could lose writing jobs because,
and I don't know if this is true.
This is just people talking.
I heard this.
Somebody did comment that for Nate's pilot,
just get AI to do it now that there's the writer's strike.
Yeah.
I mean, but I just think if you don't have the,
there's a, not a personal touch behind it.
There has to be some, like there has to,
and I think that we can all feel that.
Because you could buy into stuff.
I mean, that's why music, look at music now.
The biggest people are like,'s like taylor swift it's like you're because they're buying into her
and so it's like i'm on board with her and like old music was that's why they're you know leonard
skinner or all those allman brothers derrick trucks with an umbra like the people were into
them because they're they it was like it was real and that with an umbrella. Like the people were into them because they're, they, it was like, it was real.
And that everybody wanted real.
I think people are going to go back to real.
They want real.
I think the government probably wants robots.
I think a lot of businesses want robots because they want, it's the cheapest thing to do.
But people are going to just be like, yeah, I don't want a thing.
I mean, look at like, like you're all your, I mean, look, we drink coffee or diet,
Dr.
Pepper diet,
all this diet,
Pepsi.
Like that's probably,
I mean,
there's no human that needs to be there for that.
You know?
Yeah.
You're just probably the way those,
those conveyor belts work.
You're just everything that you do.
If I have yogurt,
it's like,
I don't know.
What is a human going to do?
Like put the top on it.
It's like,
no,
they just,
a machine does it. Yeah. They're just kind of there to, I guess, like make what is a human going to do? Like, put the top on it? It's like, no, they just, a machine does it.
They're just kind of there to, I guess, like, make sure it all goes good.
I mean, machines have been around for a long time.
There's probably always someone complaining that it's taking a job.
John Henry had to beat the steam engine or something, right?
I thought he was, like, drilling nails or spikes.
Yeah, whatever it was, he had to beat.
And he beat it.
And then he died.
This is going to be the new thing.
We're going to have to be the John Henrys of our time.
Yeah.
There's some other.
Wow, that's deep.
In Hawaii, during COVID, in Honolulu,
they use robo-dogs to take people's temperature at homeless camps.
There you go.
There you go.
Oh, my gosh.
There you go. Oh, my gosh. There you go.
Oh, man.
That's insane.
Boston Dynamics dogs walking up.
That's insane.
Yeah, these dogs can do wild things, too, I've seen.
We have your best interests at heart.
That's crazy.
Wow.
Yeah.
The fact that it's for our own safety.
That's unreal.
Yeah, we don't care if you have a house, but what's your temperature?
Yeah, it's crazy.
So when robots get to the point where they're like humans, there's three laws for robots.
Now, this just came up.
Some guy just mentioned these.
Robot may not injure a human being or through inaction allow a human being to come to harm.
That's the first law.
So it's going to have to injure a human being.
If someone's going to come into harm, it's going to have to stop, you know, like a murder.
Well, I mean, I guess it just grabs the guy.
The second law is a robot must obey the orders given to it by its human, except where such orders would conflict with the first law.
What are these laws?
This is just the code of ethics?
Robot 10 commandments.
So far, the code of ethics looks like it's like,
here's the law, but the robot does not have to do this law.
And then it's, all right, well, what's the next one?
All right.
All right.
Here's the law.
The robot can also.
But the second law basically was saying, if you told your robot to kill you, it couldn't do that because the first law is it can't hurt you.
Yeah.
And read the first law.
First law is a robot may not injure a human being or through inaction allow a human being to come to harm.
So it's got to start the harm.
Well, if someone is trying to kill someone, I mean, then it can, it will injure the other human being that's stopping that human being.
So already right there, you're already, it's already out.
Like it's already, the law is already, well, there's an excuse for it.
And that's the fear that it's, the fear of it is the robot then decides, well, you're harming my human.
So I'm going to injure this other human, even though your law says I'm not supposed to injure humans.
But I have a look around or what's that called?
A loophole.
A loophole where, but he was injuring me.
And then what's the second law?
The second law is a robot must obey the orders given to it by its human, except where such orders would conflict with the first law.
So except.
So everything's, there's just a, there's a loophole in all of it.
Well, when does it, it has to listen to your human.
Unless you are hurting the, like if you're hurting someone, then it doesn't have to listen to your he doesn't sound
like he can stop anyone from hurting you no it can yeah pets but you're yeah this is kind of
like in terminator 2 terminator 2 i have not seen it arnold schweinzenegger was there to protect john
connor and if he was killing people and john connor was like stop killing people and he's like
okay and then he just started still
shooting them injuring to the point where it wouldn't hurt john connor but it didn't get the
point like yeah that's kind of what you're saying yes i'm saying there's there's you're you're
putting so if you put that stuff in i mean a robot can then it's i mean what's the who's to say and
all this has to be who's to say who's being harmed and not being harmed.
I know it seems like it's an obvious thing, but if me and my buddy are just wrestling around, two friends, and then the robot sees it, who's to decide what is harm, not harm?
Yeah.
And can you shut the robot down?
I mean, if AI is in the robots and it has kind of a mind of its own,
then we're done.
Yeah.
And the third law is?
We've been making movies about this for a while.
Yeah.
The third law, a robot must protect its own existence
as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law.
Right.
The accepts are the thing you have a problem with.
What's the point of the third law?
How does it protect itself if it can't hurt you?
I don't want it to fight for itself.
I just want it to do what I program it to do.
And then if it goes down, it goes down.
I don't want to give it a will to live.
Yeah.
You know, that's the scary one.
That's the scary one. I want it to a will to live. Yeah. You know, that's the scary one. That's the scary one.
Yeah.
I want it to be okay with dying.
Yeah.
Because I'll turn it off.
Or not even know it's going to die.
Say it again.
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law.
So it's basically saying it should give up its life if it's to protect you from being injured.
But other than that, it should protect itself.
But the whole thing is it's not supposed to injure a human.
Well, what if a guy runs up and starts kicking the robot?
Or like, and they're trying to take a gun and it has a gun pointed at the robot.
Or puts dynamite on the robot.
What's the robot going to do?
It's not supposed to hurt anybody.
But now it does need to hurt someone because that person is trying to hurt it.
Yeah. This is already... Who wrote this?
One of the...
A.I.
One of us folks wrote in.
I really think it was just some writer who
was writing about robots, but he came up with this
in the early days of robots.
Yeah.
So this is not a real law, then.
There's no, like, government law, but it's.
Chad GBT cranking out some laws for us too.
You remember Rocky's robot in Rocky 3?
Was it 4?
Yeah.
When he was in Russia.
Okay.
I thought it was 3.
It's the beginning of the movie, right?
Yeah.
He got a little robot.
Yeah.
That was pretty fun.
So I want to watch a robot taking over. Terminator's the beginning of the movie, right? Yeah, it got a little robot. Yeah. That was pretty fun. So if I want to watch
a robot taking over,
Terminator's the way to go?
Mm-hmm.
I think so.
There's a lot of them.
What's another one?
Robo Cop.
2001 Space Odyssey.
That was the original AI.
Oh, yeah.
This is such a good movie
that I can't pronounce it.
I don't...
Ex Machina?
Oh, Ex Machina.
That's a good one.
Yeah, Ex Machina
is how I say it to myself. I think that's how they say it. Ex Machina. Oh, Ex Machina. That's a good one. Yeah, Ex Machina is how I say it to myself.
I think that's how they say it.
Ex Machina.
It's Ex Machina.
I think you're...
Oh, there's a...
We've had this debate on here before.
There's a Bruce Willis one.
Over Ex Machina?
What's the Bruce Willis one?
AI.
No, I think I've seen...
Surrogates.
Oh, I have seen it.
Surrogates is really good.
I just watched this not too long ago.
It's great, isn't it?
Yeah.
I'll check this out.
Yeah, there's a lot about the Turing test in here.
I, Robot?
Will Smith?
Yeah, I think that one did terrible.
I have trouble watching Will Smith now.
Even his old stuff.
Right.
You'd never seen it before?
No, no.
I think I want to see it.
I'm saying after the Chris Rock thing, I just...
Yeah.
I have a...
Doesn't it seem hard?
Sometimes you see his movie and you're like,
an old movie, and I'm like, I just can't,
but there are some actors where I feel like I only see the actor in the movie.
And I don't,
I don't see the character.
I do too.
But it's a guy where I it's Will Smith and everything.
Yes.
Yeah.
It's not a knock on him,
but I,
I'm thinking that.
Yes.
That's Will Smith.
Exactly.
Yeah,
exactly.
You're not Daniel Day Lewis. You kind of get lost. Forget it's him or whatever, but it Will Smith. Exactly. Yeah. Exactly. You're not Daniel Day-Lewis.
You kind of can get lost.
Yeah, forget it, Sim.
Or whatever.
But it's, yeah, with, you do, the whole thing.
Because Will Smith's a superstar.
He's like a hero.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's like a different, it's a different thing.
But, yeah.
Macrobrabots Terminator
I'm saying Surrogates
if you've not seen it
it's very good
alright
yeah
there was that
I saw you just had it pulled up
the robot that's going to
Saturn's moon
the robot snake
oh yeah
so
there's water on Saturn's moon
and
they're gonna send this
robot snake
there to search.
That was like stuff
that came out of my...
What's my dryer?
Air outside.
How do they go get it up there?
Just throw it.
Well, they're working on that too,
but when they get there...
We'll get there.
We'll cross that bridge
when we get there.
Yeah, to the water on Saturn.
So I got the thing
ready to walk on the moon.
We don't even know how to get there.
Why did you go work on that first?
Saturn's moon.
That is a scientist not doing,
like that just gets distracted and is pointless.
He goes, how are we going to get it there?
He goes, well, I just went and worked on this thing.
Those are different departments.
This is amazing how this thing moves, though.
They can drop it
into places that
no other type of
robot could fit
into.
And that thing
just crawls around
on the ground.
It's kind of
creepy.
I don't really
like it.
I don't like
looking at it.
And then.
Yeah that's
going to be
crawling in your
backyard.
You can swim
too.
Oh geez.
I'll be honest.
I figured they would have something.
This doesn't seem very futuristic to me.
I would think they could have something that just flies around.
They have drones.
Yeah.
You could have a tiny drone that could be like,
I could fly into anywhere.
Because I'm a drone.
It's going to be a really small one, though.
Yeah, but they can make that.
I'm guessing this is super energy efficient, too.
What is that?
And it can climb up any surface.
But, I mean, if you have something fly, it can fly in anything.
I guess sticking it down there, you maybe need something big to burrow.
And it's really indestructible.
Yeah, it's indestructible, maybe.
Yeah, I wish they would use it for something real instead of Saturn's moon.
You know what I mean?
Like, oh, we found water on Saturn.
You know what I mean?
Like, let's explore the ocean here.
Yeah, the ocean would be fun if they go down there.
Well, there's water on Saturn.
It's one day it can explore glaciers on Earth.
But first, Saturn's moon.
Yeah, let's just do... That's's gonna be one of the spots we go
saturn you have to leave earth yeah well i'm not because it's an earth like you're not going oh it
is like yeah europa i think it's called you think you get a choice you think they go where you want
to go i don't think you'll have much choice in anything i think it'll be like the movie the
island you ever see that where they're like they tell you that one day you're going to go? I don't think you'll have much choice in anything. I think it'll be like the movie The Island.
You ever see that
where they're like
they tell you that
one day you're going
to the island
but then you realize
that you're just like
clones
and they're using
your body parts?
Most of these
UFOlogists
I think is how you say it
the
the UFOs
that we see here
they think
there's probably not
aliens on there
it's probably
some type of robot some type of because they're going to go billions and billions the UFOs that we see here, they think there's probably not aliens on there. It's probably, uh,
some type of robot,
some type of,
because they're going to go billions and billions of miles here.
No matter what it is, it's probably not alive.
Yeah.
We think alive.
It's probably like some type of AI robot.
That's running things.
Yeah.
Probably.
Yeah.
There's demons.
Although in Brazil,
they had one thing. I mean, go on. Brazil had their own Roswell. Although, in Brazil, they had one.
I mean, go on.
Brazil had their own Roswell.
You said, yeah, but it was the exact opposite of what you said.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, AI has demons, too.
Yeah, it could be.
There was one that crashed in Brazil in 1996.
And so there's still a lot of people alive that supposedly saw it.
It crashed, and the alien was hurt.
And there's a documentary about it and these
these women found it and it asked them to help them i don't know if it spoke to them telepathically
or it spoke spoke portuguese maybe it took babel i don't know yeah and then the government came in
and it would have been it took it away yeah it would have been but but... All right. Sorry. You good? Yeah.
All right.
I'll say one more.
Sophia.
Sophia is a humanoid robot who... Yeah, threatened to...
Oh, sorry.
Go ahead.
Well, she got Saudi Arabian citizenship in 2017.
Oh, they asked her one time something,
and she was like,
I want to destroy humans or something like that.
Oh, yeah, on 60 Minutes.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's a person.
It's a social robot that can mimic social behavior and induce feelings of love in humans.
So.
Not good.
Not good at all, dude.
Now, there are robots that keep people, like elderly people, keep them company.
In Japan, there's one called Wakamara.
Yeah, I mean, this is how they get you to accept it.
Yeah.
Right.
It's for your own good.
We're doing this for you.
Yeah, ego.
Well, there's some robots.
There's some nice robots, guys.
Come on.
You're like, listen.
I'm the only one here on board with robots.
You're like, listen, Grandma.
I'm pretty busy.
Here's a robot.
Talk to this for a while. You're on board. You like all, listen, Grandma, I'm pretty busy. Here's a robot. Talk to this for a while.
You're on board.
You like all this stuff?
Well, I mean, you've got to regulate it.
I think it will be like Terminator, but I just think.
Well, it stops there.
I think any.
Terminator is not a fun, happy.
You guys are being the three grumpy old men, and I'm.
Every new technology.
You're not going to have to deal with all this.
Brian's older than us.
That's true.
Yeah, exactly. I'm out of here in us. That's true. Yeah, exactly.
I'm out of here
in a couple of years anyway.
Yeah, exactly.
Let the chips fall
where they may.
All right, you're right.
You're right.
You guys are going to have
to deal with this.
Yeah, you're like,
listen, I'll get to see it
when it's all fun and friendly.
Yeah.
You'll be in the woods.
Yeah, I'll be out of here.
Yeah, if they were
using that snake thing.
Yeah, they'll come get me.
You'll put up a fight at least. Oh, yeah. You're going to make sure it costs them some money to come get you. Yeah, exactly they were using that snake thing. Yeah, they'll come get me. You'll put up a fight at least.
Oh, yeah.
You're going to make sure it costs them some money to come get you.
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
I'm not going in voluntarily.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Be ready.
Even if the robots talk to old people,
I'd imagine those old people would like to still talk to maybe their family
or a person.
Yeah.
Go in there, the robots slapping your grandma around.
Yeah. I think there's some old people that probably have no family like uh ben stiller and happy go more yeah
yeah yeah you're in my world now but the point is they get to a point where these old people won't
be able to tell yeah and they'll sit there and they think they're talking to the granddaughter
they can maybe even get to that now gosh yeah i Yeah. I mean, these, can you pull this up?
The walk a mirror.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
Just to show what it looks like.
It's an ultra compact helper robot.
It can also use sensors to help you with your health.
I think it's kind of like a life alert.
Oh yeah.
Like check stuff.
Walk a move.
Maru.
Oh,
this thing.
Oh,
well they know that's a robot.
I've seen this.
Yeah.
Cause they remember this from the Jetsons.
Yeah.
That looks like the mage from the cartoon.
Yeah.
That terrifies.
That's probably giving old people heart attacks.
Wow.
You want company?
Send in the yellow beady-eyed robot.
I'm just imagining.
Billy?
Is that you?
I'm sick of that thing on my grandfather.
See how he would handle it.
I mean, would you get to a point where no accidents would ever happen?
Like you're just maybe walking around with like a backpack that just is checking your vitals and everything constantly and your surroundings and your centering and all this.
And so then you could get to like, you're never going to fall, you know, like airbags in a car.
Like you're going to be, car wrecks are probably going to go down.
Who has an incentive for us to, to get rid of all those things uh well i mean doctors don't
but i mean yeah big pharma everyone else they're going to prevent all this from happening because
they want us to keep getting hurt and keep having diseases yeah you know well they're
let only so much of that's true so i don't know who exactly has an
incentive it'd have to be a truly altruistic force would be control it would i don't think it'd be
money as much as it would be control well yeah you're right like it's it's the the government
they could just say you're sick we're gonna treat it and then it just deducts money from your bank
account yeah they would charge you.
They got to pay for their robots.
But it gives you a massage.
There was a case in
I think this is in Germany. It's a Volkswagen
plant where a robot killed somebody.
It grabbed it and crushed it.
And I think it went to court.
