Get it on, check back and stay there. That's Dave Dameshek podcast extra points with cousin Sal who we love. Yes. No. No. Now with with Sarah Tiana minus three with Kevin Hatcher. Yeah, right. That I should remember that. Except for that's not what this says. But anyway, I provided the update. I can't wait to hear the update from you. Fancy pants, auto racer. I'll show you and Jason Mayhem Miller over here. UFC What a call your. You think he made. Is there? There is a Hall of Fame you're making it in, but I don't think I'm making it in. But like I do have that legendary title hung around my neck for so many, you know, great fights. But look, that's a weird thing. I don't. I'm more humble than that. I think it doesn't sound like I know right now, indeed. And can I say this before we roll aces being a drug addict? Highlights Did you intentionally? I assume the answer is yes, that you wanted sort of like an angel and devil on your respective shoulders. You wanted the most macho and the least on either side of you for this show. It's my sweet and savory. I think these two people you're seeing it across see that about eight feet from father. May I say very same same species that might be hard for people to fathom by the end, it is. Sometimes I do, I do. I do think about that. Sadly, as it pertains to my my dad, because I I saw I go to the car race, you know what I mean? And I hang out with the car guys and the car guys are like, I spend half my year in Singapore and I got that Ferrari GTO over there, and that's worth probably about 50 million bucks. And we come out with the trailer and set up the whole race tan. And we put the observation deck on the top and then we get the barbecue going. And I like to drive my nine thirty five Porsche over here and I'm like, You're the same species as my dad, Jim Carolla. It's a guy who's spent his life on a chauffeur reading a book same bloody and same DNA. Same chromosome. How can you share anything with anyone in my face? That's the Alex P. Keaton syndrome. He was raised on family ties by a couple of hippies, and so he then became, you know, major capitalist guy. That's the same thing with us. Everything your old man was not, you are. Well, and and yeah, all day was asking about how the car race went. We had a clip, but we edited that clip that has narration on it. Sorry, Joe, together. I think this doesn't seem like that's the one, but maybe, maybe it is the one that's narrated, but we put a little 30 or 50 second clip together. That's doesn't seem like that's it either. But we did John there. I narrated over a clip I realized showing a clip is nice, but people like to hear you saying, Here's what happened in this clip, and I can. I can show you what that is. I hope you did it in the voice of Jackie Stewart John that six real motor cars really humps the road. There was a six wheel F1 car. Do you guys know that really? I don't know. There was a controversial six wheel motor car of F1 car from Jackie Stewart's era. Famous sponsored by Ealth, which is I think Elf was a kind of famous livery, as they say, you know, paint scheme, you know, you kind of forget, like some of these companies are European, I think Elf is a gas company, but it's in Europe, you know, so we know what it's like the elf car, but we don't really know what Elf is. But there have like martini race car John Player special, you know, very iconic livery. So the we don't we smoke marbles over here. Not not John player, but it's a cigarette brand in Europe, you know what I mean? But the John Player special is like an iconic car, but these Typekit all come up these deliveries and here is a six wheel, a three by three. Yeah, three in front. F1 car and ran and ran for a season. Maybe two seasons got outlawed at some point. What I was going to say? Yeah, either either it wins every race and it's like, Wow, this is fundamentally against our rules or everybody follow suit. Right, right. Yeah. Well, look, if it if it dominated for any period of time that it was not outlawed, then people would follow suit. It's really like, what is your so you go? Why two small wheels instead of one larger wheel? Right? So the math is how much contact can you have on the road on the asphalt? Like how much rubber is contacting at any time? So if you went well, you could have one tire that was 11 inches wide and that would have this contact size. Or you could have two tires that were six inches wide, but now it's 12 inches together of contact patch. So it's all sort of how much, you know, the tire that's not touching the roads, neither here nor there. So what is the contact patch on the road? So somebody figured the three wheels are, I should say, the two wheels up front. The one wheel and back would have a higher contact patch, and when they work, you better. What point do you stop that you have a freaking caterpillar car and you don't or a tank tread? Yeah, I know. Well, that wouldn't work. I don't know, but it worked a little bit. It was a little bit competitive and then probably outlawed. But anyway, all right. That said, what we were talking about there, Joe, that you and I talked about quite a bit. All right. Well, just show you guys this. I don't believe this is the video. OK, hold on. There's a video where I narrate over the thing and Joe puts his stuff down and this isn't it, but I told you that the video compares favorably literally with a 60s movie like action driving sequence. It really does as advertised. That you're really going to see it. Great Morning Run Group and the second time in the corner, the crowd coming through in advance in 10000 short shift in the third. Coming around turn. Following. Final speeds, right, just show it because there was a close call coming in, turned 11, decided to go inside off the racing line, no redline and third. In the second, coming up on a farm in God owes money. Oh man, that guy spun out the spider and literally to near the end, the two seconds before I showed up that guy. James Bond looks like Connery air bond car there. That's a that's a Porsche. But so what people have to understand is, or what people should know is there is a guy who spun out, he's facing the wrong direction. He's in the middle of the turn, but you can't see him until you come around the turn. So and you would think, what's to stop that guy from getting in a full head on collision because everyone is racing? There's 41 cars on the track and everyone is racing, so there shall be cars coming momentarily, if not immediately, to that guy who feels completely vulnerable because he's facing the oncoming traffic and he's on the racing line and everyone's going to come around that corner and just spot him in real time. So what? What people? So what people don't really understand or they may not know about racing is there are flags, stations everywhere. If you look at this frozen picture we have here, it looks like a lifeguard station, but there is a guy with our headset radio on and he's got flags and he's got yellow flags, he's got white flags, you've got all the flags and you've got to memorize what all the flags mean because they're telling you to do something. And if you ignore the flag, then you get the black flag or the worst, which is the black flag rolled up and jabbed at you, which you go by, which I've had a few times poking you from 80 feet away. So what? What's going to happen? And the guy got it out with me. The guy is so fast is everyone in the flag stations. It's going to start waving yellow flags immediately. And not only is the guy on the corner going to be yelling, waving a yellow flag, the next flag station up from him up down the hill, 500 feet up the hill, that guy is going to be waving. And so the drivers coming down the hill are not going to see around the corner. They're not going to know what happened, but they will know something happened and they will know we're under a yellow. And that means get off it and start looking around and know passing. By the way, it's not fair. If the guy who sees the flag who's ahead of you starts to decelerate now, no one's going to break or anything. They're just going to get off it a little bit and they're going to come around that corner and they're going to know somebody is there because the guy who spun out can't go forward and try to turn around. He's going to tip out, someone's going to team on him. And he can't back up either cause someone's going to T-Bar. He just has to sit there in his car and hope that people see the flag, sometimes full clenched, full full of control. Parker Sometimes guys are so into the racing that they miss a flag, especially a couple of stations like you can be. You can be tunnel locked into the guy in front of you staring at your tachometer and so into the race that you go by and miss a company legitimately drivers instructors and keep your eyes on the road legitimately. If you're going as fast as you can possibly go, I wouldn't want to have my eyes darting around to see what's around me. I guess that's the trick of race. You see the flag? That's my question. Well, I was so close to when it happened that no flag. Well, I couldn't see the flag because I was on the flag station now. So for if I would've hit the guy, that would have been s**t happens if the tenth car that comes down the hill hit the guy, that would have been that guy ignoring the flag that that was basically what it's about. So there's flag stations all around the track and there might be 20 or there might be 25. And all they do and every driver's meeting is they go, look for the flag stations flying your flag stations and always see the flag stations. You don't have to stare at a flag station. You'll see a guy over here waving something around black or red. And you know, red means get out of here, pull over and stop. You know, black lines come into the pitch black with a red dot and it is like there's debris, yellow, there's full course yellows, there's local. This guy would have got a local yellow because me and the other guy would have still been racing for the race because we had a lot of track before we got back to this guy. But anyway. Flag stations, that's they're very cool. And that is the tenth and final chapter of what we talked about way back at the man show. I'm thinking now. It must have been maybe the Sydney Australia game. Names that inspired this idea, but do you remember Ace talking in the office says I love the idea of mayhem as an athlete? Dig this. The decathlon, in theory, should be the coolest sporting event. It's who's the best athlete gauged by 10 hand-selected events. The problem is who gives a crap about javelin? Throw in the 21st century and hammer toss and all that. I had a better idea. Let's revise what those 10 events are the signature. The final one was a cannonball race across these United States A's would win that. You also then spun this idea off into a great ideas renaissance man who is the three dimensional man among us mayhem in another event. We'll fight. We'll fight to the death. I mean, not to we. The Catlin Renaissance man is you guys have a Kinect for tournaments. Dave dominates. Yes. And then you get into the octagon and mayhem dominates, right? But we look for the cars. We look for the Dolph Lundgren, the kickboxer. I'm going to kill you both when it comes to naming starters in the 1982 World Series. That's right. No way you can. I'm going to. I'm going to smoke. But then we get out the buttock of bats and climb onto the log and we see who can stay on that long. That's what those are called. Are they God? Now I think they're punching sticks. Huge. Huge, huge. Huge is definitely one of the tonight. Yeah, that is definitely gonna be standing. All right, I can show we did. You know, I did such a deep dive on this flag station guy, when I don't know, is trying to figure out how fast this guy got his yellow flag out. We did it and we did a very good up saying this guy got the yellow flag out one second after this guy spun out he he spun out right now and that yellow flag came out. It wasn't five seconds, it was one seconds. And you're seeing attention. No, I didn't see it because I was looking so hard left into the turn. I was looking at the guy who was dulled. Right now, I'm looking at this guy going, I don't want to hit this guy, but I also in an insane, purely male thought I did not want to hit the guy. If you show it a little, the regular one, the old one, you just get down to it. Sorry, Joe, you show it. I did not want to. This is not it. I did not want it. You can remove this from your guy, from your diet out of the cube. I don't. We didn't have that one. But anyway, if you show it. You will see that I did not want to hit the guy who was in his million dollar Porsche sitting there facing me. We have the old tape right now. But if you see my how hard I turn, I turn hard right after him because I don't want to lose the guy in front of me. I was still racing with the guy in front of me, and I did not want him to get away from me by slowing down or braking or going wide or anything. So I essentially, once in my mind, I had cleared the guy by four inches. Yes, immediately back on into the race because I knew this f**ker and the Alfa was getting away from me. Yeah, I have a question like about racing like, so I guess your adrenaline spike right there a little bit, right? Is it a weird thing because the race is pretty long where you just had to drag out this adrenaline the whole race, huh? I didn't. I didn't spike. I just saw the guy. I missed him and I was immediately on to the next thing. I didn't talk about it all weekend and I just got back here and I and I saw it on the video and I was like, Oh yeah, that guy spun out, but I didn't come back and go, Holy s**t, what happened? You know, it was just sort of minor stuff happens all the time. All right. Lot of celebrities, by the way, though not quick zero. Your number one. I'm number one because there's no there's zero or something out, there's zero in the race. Yeah, I always find that demeaning, David. I thought I was like, I do some sort of celebrity parade lap thing you guys do. I don't know. It's a race we race. You beat Cheryl Ladd. Big one. And Linda Lavin, Charlene Taylor, right? Right. And I'm like, Why? They're all from 1980. All a bunch of hardcore vintage racer dudes. I'm the only dude who may have some form of what you're saying, and it is more impressive when you couch it that way. There are five hundred and fifty cars. No, none of them are celebrities. You're Paul Newman for the modern. That's all. But now, if he were there then then there would be number two. What do you think of this theory or two? I was I've seen enough of Danny DeVito doing those chairs in my commercials, right? And I'm fine. I like Danny DeVito. I like the jersey Mike stuff. And I realize, Oh, wait a minute. Back in the day. So. Rodney Allen Rippy. Does that name sound familiar? Man, you know, maybe we should fine sorry for the audible Joe, but the Jack in the box commercial where Rodney Allen Rippy My brain is fading. I'm sitting there, the room going Rodney Alan King, which is totally different. Another black man has a different outcome, right? I saw him on TV, but in a totally different capacity than Rodney Al-Araibi. But Rodney Al-Araibi was the cutest miniature pre-dated all of the cute black kids on TV and was made pre. Webster was made a star because of how cute he was, and he was a did jack in the box commercials. Now all jack of the watch commercials and we got 18 tacos for $4 stoners and we never close. But he's the got him because of how large the jumbo they're trying to make the jumbo jack look big. So they got a miniature guy. Interesting. We'll show that. I'll show you that this is the spot. Exactly. But you don't want Jason Momoa holding your hamburger. It's kind of like miniature. Yeah, right? You want a miniature. You want this burger to look good. You get big picture. Donald Trump to hold it right? Ben. Yeah, right? Yes. All right. Sorry. For the commercial from Jack in a box and brown meat patty hands not kill me if I'm wrong and then I'm like running here, I help you. Oh my. Yeah, this isn't the one I'm thinking of, but it's good enough. It's bad. It's so huge because the kids are three and a half. It looks huge because their hands are so small, everything is shrunk. You know what I mean? So Danny DeVito, Hey, what's wrong? Sub is thirty five percent of his total height, right? Isn't that why they chose the veto sized right? You're right. Yeah. Well, you don't see Larry Bird on this commercial. It's no problem. There's no big dudes that the the jumbo jacks is big as his head is big. This Rodney I'ma represent Rodney Allen Rippy versus DeVito is on the undercard to mayhem Davis should be doing. No, he's adorable. He's adorable, right? I feel like I remember him, but I can't because they didn't have Jack in the box, right? Oh, right, right. He does ring a bell, though, now that you show up, so. So Jersey. Mike's did choose the veto because he's been a chair and makes a sandwich look bigger, right? Checks out. Yeah, checks out here. All right. My next thought something. You guys riddle me this. Maybe you're that guy. I don't know. It's 2024. Do you guys feel like there should be certain things taught early that people should not be able to graduate from the sixth grade or fifth grade? Because out here we graduate the sixth and then seventh, eighth, ninth, but people have different, staggered, different. Whatever that is, you cannot move on to junior high unless you understand very clearly like a couple of things, you know, like like what would be my sort of Ten Commandments? Like when you're done with gum, you can't just spit out your mouth wherever you are, whatever hot sidewalk you're walking down or whatever, wherever you are, you must dispose properly of the gum. It can't just go flying out of your mouth for me to step on with it. Flip flop later on during the summer on the sidewalk, right? The chip bag. How to how to reseal a bag when you're done and method. Well, here's what I do. And then first off, I'm basing this on Mike August because he leaves. He comes here, he opens the big chip bag, the big bag, he snacks, and then when he's done, he leaves it sitting upright in the gaping. Just just mushroom cloud. And I've just blown it. This is why this he can get the opening and as upright as he can get it. And then he leaves. And it's like, I say the same thing getting folded. Roll it over on itself with Mike. Mike is so great because I'm backstage with him a lot. He'll do that. Then I'll walk over and roll it over on itself, and then he'll come back and have more chips and leave it. But he's he's done. He's done with the chip bag, and I've gotten into this with thousands of human beings. I just, well, if you have a chip clip, use it. If it's got the resealable thing, do it. But in in lieu of not having access to those things, just roll it over. And let its weight rest upon the opening, that's see now that's not providing proper detail if you are going to invite others and believe me, you know, I agree. Is one of these acts of laziness and selfishness. The perfect storm, like we've talked about the person who can because their food needs warmed up, they'll now open the microwave, then the beep beep beep beep. They'll wait it out. Then they'll open it being it's open. Then they'll take their food out. Then they'll leave the microwave door open. Oh, what? What? What the hell? The microwave, the door are. You can't do the clock to get to complete the deal. This is selfish, and it's because they feel no one's watching and I can get away with this. And that's what August is doing. And I bet you see, I've been taken to task. He thinks about it. I've been taken to task. Here's what I do at salad bars when they have the, you know, the hard boiled eggs and it's cut in half. I don't. I'm not a yellow guy. I like the whites, so I use the tongs. I'm with you, but not as it pertains to eggs. And keep going. I'll squeeze. I'll use the time and I'll squeeze the yellow metal out and just keep the white and put it in so somebody else can have the yellow. And then people say, What are you doing now? I say, I'm leaving the food for other people who like the yellows. I beg you. August would rationalize his bad behavior by saying. I'm leaving it open. Doesn't anybody else want chips? That's what I'm doing. I'm being a good citizen. I mean, he's he's lying. To be fair to him, he's having zero thoughts about it. Yeah, he's here. His thoughts. I'm done with chips. I got that. That's it. Once I'm done, I'm done. I'm done with chips. Like, I'm done with this gum. It's your turn. Come sailing out of my mouth. I have to tell adults all the time, like, just roll it over because air is the enemy. It kills the chips, it kills the knots. It, it makes everything go stale. That's right. I'm just saying then there's also the trail of granola bar wrappers that bike leaves behind. Two, because he sits down, eats the granola bar, throws the wrapper on the table, and now he's done with the granola bar. And I'm like, How do you make it to this age? That's your mentality. And listen, everybody, whether it's the microwave, the microwave door flapping in the wind, yes, faux pas. No one stuff, they blew up the enchilada there were cooking without a lid, leaving the mess No. Two No. Three, leaving four minutes on the clock. Somehow, sometimes they put stuff in and they miscalculate. They can't hit the zero out or the N1. They just leave the time on there. Can we just do this? Whatever you would do at home, you must do everywhere else. I don't care if you if you don't spit gum out in your own entry hall, if you don't leave your own microwave door open, if you don't let your own chips go stale. If you don't leave your granola bar wrappers everywhere around your own house, then you can't do it abroad. I love it. It's a great law. You know, we're going to be let down by the worst members of our society. Mayhem, any funny you bring this up? I'm thinking, like, doesn't part of you long for like that carefree, laissez faire attitude of like, I could just spit my gum out? I just leave the chips open like I don't even care about anything like. Like, doesn't part of you wish that you could just be this guy who doesn't give a s**t about anything I do? I parked somewhere yesterday at the Pacific Design Center, and I backed in a spot for I don't know why reasons, and I'm trying to give myself sort of equal room on each car. And then I got out of the car and I looked and I wasn't over the outer line, but I was over the inner line, you know, the double line and I was within the parking space, but off to one side a little and then like stood there and wrestled with the notion of getting back in and like doing it again. And I was uncomfortable because I had to really assess like, how was my car going to affect the car next to me? There was room, but I wasn't over the outer line, but I was over the inner line and I was close to it. So it was like a lot of thought versus just shooting gum out of hand. Long story short, his answer is no. I know I was not paying for that because he's incapable of it, and the reason I know that is because I am wired. Similarly, I'm offended. I know why everyone's misdeed, and that's why I have a Han Solo ignition blaster to make things right. Ace and may here's my ace, your your produce of fresh produce enthusiast. What's in the third tier for you among the vegetables? Well, here's a thought. Let me let me tell you what I've been getting into. All right. I got a lot of thought. I got a fruit up that got a lot of thoughts. Are in fruit update. Thought, first off, what is it? I don't know what it is called a dragon fruit or something, which is going around now, which is as exotic sort of psilocybin mushroom trip on the outside outside than a beautiful, like snowy, white core stuff doesn't taste good. No, but everyone just loves the way it looks, and they keep buying dragon fruit going. Look at this. Look at us and I'm like, Yeah, but it doesn't taste. It's a mealy, tasteless mess. But they they love the look. Let's get rid of dragon fruit. This is garbage. It's sad to see these ballparks now. Selling wieners with with fruity pebbles put out that looks like something bad is going to happen. It's going to be an atrocity on my list. The new passion fruit? Yeah, you're destroying fruit. Get the f**k out of here with your dragon fruit and all who purchased it and take the pomegranate with you. No one agreed. All right. No, No. Two. I am tired of poached vegetables. I'm tired of eating broccoli. That sort of half raw and half cook. You go to it trendy restaurants. Now, the carrots are sort of poached, you know, sort of hard on the inside and soft on the outside. Broccoli, it's all better when it's just cooked through. And carrots are delicious, right? Yeah, but cook it. Cook it through no one. I'm on to the beets. I got the giant beets. I've been buying giant beets and making beet salad. It's amazing. But what a softball sized beet takes an hour and a half to boil like it. It takes a while, but don't get the little ones. I don't know why the big ones are better. I'm on the beat. You have a fruit. I'm telling you you're not going to beat the Rainier Cherry Dave. You're not going to beat it. And it's hard to let me know. It's hard to find and it's not around and it's seasonal or something, but you get your hands on a Rainier cherry. I understand what the inability to make more specific choices like people assume. For some reason they'd because Adam Carolla thinks something that that deserves you. Getting on to my timeline to let me know what Adam Carolla thinks about the fruit and I say, Excuse me, sir, can I? Adam Carolla starts giving out awards at the end of the year for Fruit of the Year. Then I'll give a good g*****n. Until then, the Shakey's are the gold standard for Prune. And that's it. Can I say this quickly before you tell me your name? Right? I'm not done with that, OK? Made fresh apple sauce the other day. Had poor old school. The guy at the track, chef Dan made us black pig. Japanese pork. Old school pork that has fat in it. Remember when you were a kid, you got a pork chop. It tasted great. And then now it's all dry and white. Weird and you're like, I don't like a pork chop anymore because it's not marble doesn't have the flavor of the fat on old school pork. That's marble. Like there's a fat on it and fresh applesauce. Fresh applesauce, the s**t in the jars. Fine. It's not fresh. It's fresh is not hard to make. It's sort of my cranberry sauce argument. It's a little more than making cranberry sauce, but you can make fresh applesauce quite easily. Make it fresh. Serve it up with the old school pork. You'll be in heaven. I mean, salads and Adam got some. What's it called again? Basic is that what people take care of? Pudo pork is the Japanese pork. That's what it's very good. Now with a K, are you ready for an update now? You may recall. You may recall in last year's chase for for the granddaddy of all Shecky Awards Fruit of the Year. It's cause, you know, I can't even at this point, add up all the conversations that disdainful ones, the acrimonious ones with Adam Carolla and his friend Kimmel and all all the other people. You know, everybody. It's easy to sit on the sidelines and say wrong. And you know, then you come up with like, Hey, make Apple. So I mean, that's not applesauce. That's your solution. Come on now. Listen, it wasn't a good twenty twenty three in the world of fruit, and that was on the heels of a mediocre twenty twenty two and I had a hard choice to make. I had to deliver a stern, clear message to the world of fruit, and so I did that. Of course, as mayhem can tell you, Fruit of the year 2023 was the lemon. It was a it was a statement. That's what you get. Yeah, yeah. Shocking fruit. Yeah. Now I am. I'm better. Now you are to take it. A lemon, by the way, is nice. Show Universal that it can. Obviously, it can go the, you know, ice tea wedge. It can go the. Muffin A can go the meringue cake. And when you're done and you've made a mess, use some lemon scented pledge and clean up it with it, it is absolutely it is at worst vastly underrated. I think we can appreciate a nice lemon in many ways. If you just cut lemon makes everything better. It definitely makes fish. I used to work in a seafood place and the chefs will tell you like, it will bring the flavor. I always put lemon on your seafood. They will tell you, Yeah, that makes everything better. I called out fruit and like a savvy coach, you know, knows carrot or whip time. You know, that's what it's all about. The fruit world has responded. Let me tell you something, and I'll start with this. You know, I challenge the envy apple when I say this quickly. People say, offer the carrot or the stick, but the stick is what you use to dangle the carrot. So then you write a part of their carrot cake, the carrot or whip. It's fine. That's that's either praise or punishment. Yeah, but carrot and the stick or the stick. People say that all the all the time. Yeah, but you put the stick on the carrot, then you put it in front of the horse and then the horse pulls to try to get to the carrot like that. Except it's a carrot. But what you need is somebody nimble, like the yellow flag guy at the race, like he quickly removes that care. Now it's time for the stick. You know what else is bothering me? What's that? People change? I wouldn't set foot in that place, too. I wouldn't step foot in that place. It's bothering the s**t out of me. I know it's got to be bug inertia stepping foot. Yeah, I don't like that and it's right up there. I could care less. You could, but this is second. But well, do you want to define exactly how much? Yeah. All right. Sorry, fell through. Now listen, fruit back again may have. No, he does not care that he doesn't live a carefree life. Yeah, yeah. I just as a reminder, just to bring you back up to speed. So first of all, the envy had that improbable, miraculous 27 month run, uninterrupted run of delicious. There's no fruit that we've ever seen, and the apple, the envy, apple. No, like DiMaggio. But for produce, no vegetable or fruit ever had an uninterrupted streak of delicious. You're supposed to have a couple of down months, at least not the envy. Then it took its foot off the gas, much like Ace did when that car was sitting there in front of him. The envy is back. Grainger's the Honeycrisp back and ready to do battle with its with its potent brethren named Envy and otherwise. Then a yellow peach passed these lips before it was sweet and delicious. But what really turned me around in and changed everything I thought I knew I didn't even know of its existence until three weeks ago. Have you ever had a yellow plum? No. Oh yeah. Like, yes, I have not on a I don't know. No, no me until you've had one. All right. I know that they try to do something with the plum family all the time. They're always reinventing the plum and it's always a version of a plum. And I don't like the base line of a plum and apricot better, and I think nectarines are much better than peaches. Yeah, that's an ad. Again, read this is your McSweyn take. Yes, the green is to the peach what the yam is to the sweet potato, which is just more of what it started. Mm hmm. If you like a sweet potato, then you should like a yam more because it's more sweet potato than sweet potato. As nectarine is more peach, then I'm not going to fight you on this. If you say Yam, I say, OK, now I'm telling you about the yellow plum, and I'll thank you to give it a at least. Give it a shot, a try. Yes, please do that. It is. Fruit is back in a big way. I mean, that was the the root of the conflict with Kimmel, in fact, was that I didn't because he said plum is the best fruit and I sent him a plum is good for like 11 hours a year. How much am I like? How how much am I supposed to worship me to be gracious? Let me tell you about Kimmel's taste many years ago, probably twenty five years ago is like kind of getting dressed up, and he had the dress shirt with no collar. You know, the dress shirt was sort of the priest's collar look on it, and I was like, What's that? It's like, that's the look at the future 90s R&B band member. Well, I was like, That's a horrible look dress. He was like, That's what I'm going with. So if you want to know about Kimmel's taste, there you go. Exhibit Exhibit A.. All right. We got we got the spider coming in here. Ooh. And we also got mayhem with news. So why don't we take a quick break? Are we taking a quick break here or are we going right into the news? I want to go right into the news. Joe says Joe. Oh, OK. All right. Let's go right. And you got some news there. Mayhem do have some news with some video accompaniment. First off, the California High School principal placed on leave after a video surfaced of inappropriate dance with the mascot. I mean, you could just roll right into this unless you want to hear some more because that mascot was twerking with him, he was on. And yeah, I was getting kind of a lap dance. I got to, yeah, from a Viking. A little talk there. Yeah, and he kind of, yeah, he shoots a jazz cannon. I don't know exactly what the cause cannon was, right? Gay porn, but he's having fun. I know. Yeah, but he's on leave right now, I guess administrative leave until they investigate this fully and get some more clips from TikTok. I like that he's wearing the number 86. He just got 86 from his gap. Yeah. I don't know if the crowd's cheering. You've done your job. He's pushing a guy out on a desk chair. Yeah. This is zero burger material. Yeah, I agree. I think it's like Outrage Machine goes into full force. Yeah, I don't know. Also, the administrative leave with pay is really is the occasion. I was like, Hey, it's a vacation. You're like, Stay home for days and get paid. You're suspended from school. Awesome. Well, it's not the reaction. The interesting thing about this article is that it ends with like comments just that random people made. So, you know, going into that outrage machine sort of thing, like when every principle is when a principle is every student's best friend, the school is lost, one person commented. It's like, this is what journalism I do like. I do feel there's an issue like I don't. I don't like it when dads try to be their son's best friend, like I like some dads, some roles. You know what I mean? And I think there is kind of a weird issue in that there's a little bit of a breakdown of hierarchy like there kind of needs to be generals and colonels and privates. And, you know, we need that. So when everyone is just kind of wearing shorts and flip flops and calling everyone by their first name, you know, you see stuff now that you've never we never formally saw when we're like in grade school, like, you know, like like students yelling, You're not the boss of me. Get away from me. I'll sue your a*s or whatever, like just dumping water buckets on cops and stuff like pushing cops and like, you see, you see the guys, you know, they're they're protesting in front of the DNC and the cops are like walking by that. f**k you, f**k you. Like, we would never. You would just get shot or hit with a baton like a spray. They didn't have pepper spray, but like, we're never in a million years dream of getting in a cop's face and yelling, f**k you as loud as we could, and we're kind of there now. So there's been a little bit of a breakdown. Now I'm not for the teacher, you know, the principal with the Board of Education paddling everybody or smacking them with the rule or whatever. But I do like the separation, but I do like the this guy is the boss. You should listen to him or that guy is the principal. You should be scared a little bit. It's sort of like. You know, The Untouchables has been on, and every time I watch it, it always strikes me that some part of me is always thinking. Eliot Ness and Connery and the and the gang are trying to stop people from getting booze and morally or ethically or whatever or lifestyle wise. I want the booze, so they're fine, but it's the law and the law says that you can't do it and illegality and all of that. And it comes around too, because it's the law. What are you going to do if they if they lift, lift the ban on booze? I'm going to have a drink, says Eliot. Ness is the last movie, the last line of the movie. I am one of these people now. Maybe it's laziness because I said so is the answer now is that for me like that because if you indulge more than that, I feel like you're opening it up to making everything debatable. Let's let's let's get your point of view. Yes. There has to be you have to have the shortcut of you're doing that. What? But why? But on that note, yes, I told you to do it and I agree. And there and you should. We know these guys, these people hate this, but you should fear or have some fear of cops. You should have some fear of principles. You should have some fear of your dad. You should have some fear of your coach. You should have some fear that sort of keeps you in your lane about all of these people, and that's completely out the window now. But you also know that the reality in which we reside now, there now exists the challenge. And I'm not saying this is all the big time sports, but who's more important to teams? The star of the team can go to ownership and say, I want the coach, even though he's nominally higher up than I am. I want him fired and they'll sometimes do it. You know, I think that's the threat of if you do that to me, you know, I can. There's actions that I formerly would never have considered taking against you. So they're playing scared. A principle like that probably is playing a little. So we think the principal should be fired or no, no. I think that when I saw that now, but I did, I was really clearly when I remember super clearly going to my daughter's class when she was don't on the second grade or third, maybe the second or third grade. And of course, the teachers, you know, 26 year old chick, no stud go boots, you know, like weirdly not dressed like Mrs. Harvey or Mrs. Sontag or my teachers had like beehive hairdos and brooches and were wearing like three sweaters and two skirts, you know, one longer than the next and to something like Go Go Dancer. And she had her, of course, she had her Starbucks on her desk with the big dome because she just ordered the big frappe or whatever with all the whipped cream in it and stuff. And they had her first name scrawled in Sharpie on it from the Starbucks, and she had it turned to the class, you know, and I just I kind of walked up and I was like, she'd probably turn that thing around so everyone doesn't start calling. They call me by my first name. I was like, Oh, I know you think that's progress? I don't think it is. I call you business that I really am like, I'm not old school in. Well, I guess I am old school and a lot of ways, but that is a big one for me. I am mister this or that. I'm calling your elders. Angie is weird. Yes. Yeah. How did you know that was it? Yeah. All right. What else you got? Well, what is a short walk and can improve your health? Hmm. Yeah. Wellness influencer and professional home economist Marilyn Smith has coined the term Bart walk for after dinner, strolling that her guide dog gets the nod a lot. Take two words that have existed for 7000 years and put them together. I coined the phrase, I coined the phrase bread, so I like that. Well, look the spirit. This fatwa can help regulate blood sugar. And, you know, walking is beneficial and raised money for childhood disease. Flatulent after dinner stroll can help limit your risk of type two diabetes and regulators what they want you to take a walk after dinner. They always go hot. You should eat, and then you should take that walk. But when I eat, I want to sit down like when I my my, you want me to take a nap. Fill me up and I want to do is stretch out. That's that's move. I'm better before the meal, but I think the plan is eat and then take. Take the walk. You know, why that's crazy is because you can find this available. I'm sure 20 years ago, the heart, the American Heart Association said the old saying of like, let's go walk off dinner is what you should not do because it's strange your heart unnecessarily and men of a certain age. We're having a heart problems because they were doing exactly that. Walking it off at six o'clock at night stuff and you're putting undue strain on your heart. So same, I guess thing is don't go swimming after, you know, for 15 minutes after you eat. I don't know if that's related, but that's in fact true. So battling diseases, diabetes or heart disease you choose, which do you want to eat and then take a walk? It's probably, probably best. And like I, I said, get that weighted vest. I got that weight advance. It's good. Makes to walk into something. Hmm. Yeah, they say that you know you. I think we're f**king pretty lazy now because I don't remember anyone talking about walking when I was a kid. Walking is what poor people did. There was no form of exercise that was ever attached to walking. Nobody. Now, couples in love would go for a stroll, but that wasn't for exercise. That was for a stroll that was sort of a romantic, you know, walk in the moon under the Moon, you know, in the Moonlight Walk, that was a stroll. And then there are poor people that had to walk, you know, three miles to school and back every day because they have in rural Mississippi, son of a sharecropper or whatever. Walking was never discussed as a form of exercise until we got so fat and lazy we had to. Actually, it's sort of like, remember when Reagan started counting ketchup as a vegetable? We're doing that with walking and exercise. That is exactly right. Have healthy 40 year old guys going. I got my steps in today. It's like how many steps to the, you know, my my phone told me I took 10000 steps. I said, This is you walking around. Sometimes you go get food and then walk back. You know what I mean? I mean, listen, I'm not against walking. I'm just saying the fact that we're counting it is exercise means we've we've jumped the shark in the lazy department, raided weirdo slash actually lazy person claiming that they're working out is the hiker. I think this is a weird activity. The desire and people not only do it for fitness. They look forward to hiking. No thanks. Go walk up a hill. Why? That's that's miserable. Fun. I think there's got a hiking story. Was there a lost hiker in there somewhere? No lost hiker today. Hmm. Got a went in there. I may not have thrown in. I mean, got you in there somewhere. Go ahead. Yeah, look again. There is no Oh, Eric. Oh, sorry. There you are. You want to jump in there? I do, because we're talking about hiking, and I talked to Leno yesterday. So all right, I'll jump right ahead. Yeah. I also got a crazy story about a hacker that faked his death. But California rescue team finds hiker missing for 30 hours after bumping into Jay Leno during the search. Yeah. California search and rescue devout an elderly hiker had been missing for 30 hours and happened to run into TV legend Jay Leno along the way. Hmm. Kee Su Yang, a very fitting experience prepared 78 year old hiker, was reported missing on Saturday and got separated from his group while climbing Mount Waterman in Los Angeles County. Nothing good ever happens on a hike. You either get lost or you encounter a mountain lion or your best girl breaks up with you like a dead body. You come across a dead body. Nothing good happens or a serial killers on the loose. Nothing. No one know. Nothing good. I mean, the best case scenario is you come back in one piece, but that's not a great outcome. You're asking for it. And I yes, I yeah, anyone who gets murdered on a hike is immediately be downgraded to manslaughter because you're kind of asking for it. I didn't tell you to go lock up that that mountain of dirt that could fall off the cliff, that could get lost, that could be eaten by a mountain lion. You removed yourself from civilization and put your stats right there, not me. You can run into Jay Leno. There's a lot that could go wrong. Yeah, I talked to Leno yesterday. He gave me a good. He gave me like a power power player answer. I said, Jay. I need a piece for a car made and a door handle for a sixty seven Lamborghini 400 GTI. Now it's a long story, but I sold a Lamborghini to attorney Mark Geragos. That is not the same model, but it has the same door handle. Hmm. So I took without asking Mark's permission because he left the car here. I took the handle off it. And I sent it to a guy to do like a 3-D scan. You have to literally have it a C and C machine, make it or forge it or make a mold of it. It's like a door handle from an old car, but they don't exist and I have to have one made. So anyway, mark, at some point one of his door handle back. So I had to get the door handle back, but I never scanned it or 3D printed it or see and see that I didn't do anything with it. Now I got the door handle and I got to give it back, but I never I need it to make this mold or to do a C to do a 3D print of it. So I called Leno and I said, Do you guys have someone you used to do like a 3D printer in a thing of a thing? And he's like, We were. And I heard him yell at the at the Mountaineers to hold back off for a second had the H man on the phone. And he said, I said, Who do you? Who can you wrap? Can you recommend somebody where I can take this handle and get a 3D rendering of it and then look at sea and see whatever? And it gave the power movie moviegoers goes, Yeah, I got a recommendation. Me and I was like, Oh, that's a good move. That's a power move right there. So I said that so I can just bring it by your shop and you'll make a 3-D model. He's got you. Ever see those things? They're printing houses? I don't understand it, but it's I'm fascinated by it and the potential of it. Yeah. Well, what they can do is they can scan a little, they can scan whatever you got. Then they use plastic beads to like, make it physically make exactly what it is. And then you could have that in use it as a mold and make it out of metal or something like that and put it in a C and C machine and make it out of a piece of billet aluminum or something like that. The houses are kind of crazy now. They they 3D print houses. Yeah, now which is just, you know, you go, What are they talking about? What are they talking about? What what a 3D printed house is is. If you see a cement truck, cement trucks have pumpers, what they call. That's a separate guy. So if you were putting on a big patio in your backyard, the cement truck would pull up to the front. The pumper guy would pull up behind it and then the chute for the cement truck would just go into the pumper. The pumper guy would have hoses going all the way the backyard, and he'd be sort of like a swimming pool. When they do a swimming pool, they do it with guns. They've got a rig and they spray it. You know, they build the cage and they spray it in. In the 3D printed houses, they have a rig like a big arm that's hooked into the computer, and they keep pumping cement into it, and it just literally keeps following the outline of all the walls. And each time it goes up like seven, eight of an inch and it just keeps building and building and building. And they say, and there's an inner and an outer, and then the inside is hollow and you could run your wiring or your plumbing, electrical, what have you there and will even do cutouts for windows and doors and things like that when it gets to the right height. Then they put a piece of wood across it and then it doesn't go over the top of it or something, but they they can print out a house in, you know, days. That's kind of interesting stuff, but either way. All right. So like live in one of those. I mean, I intend to those modular kind of houses that look really like you're opening like a, you know, a fold out kids book, it's real. Have you seen modular? They pop open and they like, flip a couple of things like, Oh, the standing house? Yeah, modular. We're looking at a 3D printed house. They reinvented Adobe A Yeah. You know where you just layer by layer. Slap it on there. It's it's pretty awesome that they're doing that and will change tech. Now that we don't celebrate something, we don't celebrate enough how you make a bridge over a body of water. Now that the Golden Gate Bridge? Yeah. How did that get? And people have explained to me they pour the cement down. But how does it not? How does it solidify and prompt? It is so fascinating to me. Obviously, the pyramids are probably more remarkable given the lack of technology when those were built. But still, why wouldn't the hell who figured out how you would be able to get giant things that could support? You know, I don't know how many millions of weight it would need the support. How do they get those things to dry up in the water? There is something called like aqua cement or something now that they probably would use if they were doing the craziest thing or deep water oil derricks. Mm hmm. Yeah, right. That's crazy. But now in the Golden Gate Bridge, Brooklyn Bridge and that kind of bridge era. And Joe can look this up. I believe the way they did that is they put a box like like, you know, the, I think, to keep the ocean away. Right, right? They build the box and then they drain the water out of the box and then a whole bunch of brave men and women just kidding about the women five times your s**t. But a bunch of dudes went down there. Doug Kazan's down into the floor of the bay. Sheesh. And then poured the pad into that. And those guys would get the bends sometimes, too, because of the pressure of how deep they had to go. You can look that up. I'm pretty sure some of those guys got depends on they would sink pylons into the into the floor down there. At least 20 people died in the building of the men and women whip. OK, now women didn't do anything. Yeah, keep going. Does that report will pull it up? Yeah. 20 people dying to build a bridge to lose 20 people building a bridge is, yeah, crazy. Yeah. Oh, so that's why they got the band's compressed air down there. Yes, they would they they put them down there in a big cylinder or something they dug. I mean, oh my God, it was work you couldn't get the youngsters to do today. I would say that I would say nobody under 30 I know would volunteer to get down there and be one of those sand. Yeah. Put that on the list of 10 worst jobs I've ever heard. That's awful. Yeah. Mm hmm. Yeah. Worst job. Porn makeup artist, you know, I've long said, dermatologist, you know, people don't talk about that one enough, but you want to deal with other people's pustules. It's the old joke about at the end of which is, you know, but women love it. Yeah, I listen. I could open a kiosk at the airport and charge women. Seventeen dollars a visit to pop. Yeah, women can charge women to part, but right next to the baby, next to the Cinnabon and the shoeshine place. But I would go, it's right. It'll replace the shoeshine stand because that's that's a vestige, right? We don't need that. No one was wearing it. Skechers now and Vance, right. But but women would pay to pop sets. I think you're right, that does appeal to some percentage of women. You're absolutely right about that. It's it's like odd or at the end of Animal House when they say like it's supposed to be his, his winning, what he went on to do thing when they freeze frame at the end and tell you, whatever, what are you saying? Sorry, isn't it, otter? Yeah, I didn't hear you say, I think God, every day that goes on to be a Beverly Hills gynecologist. You know what a job he wins again. Like, no, that job you would really like. I know that's like a glib thing that fellas say, like I gynecology is my food, right? You sure. Have you seen you seen the human population, you know you want to deal with? You want to see this one. I do not. I am not interested. I have. Well, it's better than Sylmar gynecologist. I think they put Beverly Hills in front of stuff. Makes me feel better. OK, makes it a little better octogenarians. All right. You're staring at Joshua Gabor snatch all day. Yeah, that should be a fun story. Yeah, it's sick. That's right. Yeah. Hmm. Hacker who faked his death to avoid child support. Sentenced to prison. Hmm. After faking his death, prosecutors say, obtained a new identity and sold private information to international buyers. Oh, that guy. Everybody can fake their own death anymore. They can't go, you know, eg someone's house without being caught on a ring doorbell. You know, there's no more. That's a fake. In your own death was a plot line about every fifth movie that came out in the 70s. A lot of faking of the own death. You know, this guy like went the extra mile he went into it, stole some credentials of a doctor from another state to gain access to Hawaii's death registry system and create and certify his own death certificate. Mm hmm. Now he afterwards, he obtained a new identity and continue to sell stolen private information to international buyers, including individuals from Algeria, Russia and Ukraine. So he got away with it for a good stretch and dodged paying one hundred and ninety five thousand seven hundred dollars in child support, debt and damages, in fact, that the government and corporate computer systems, but also means you can't see your kids. I mean, having child support, right? Yeah, I was just he must have had a hell of a baby mama, let me tell you. Like, I don't know, he really went above and beyond to try to get out of this weight. So. So you also would have 70s 80s sitcoms. You would get bonked on the head. And not only would you get amnesia about who you are, you would be a much nicer version of yourself. Mm hmm. That that was one missing Stradivarius was a storyline in roughly how the violin? Yeah, priceless. Stradivarius was lost in the back of the cab and somehow involved the Brady Bunch. Quicksand was in there somewhere. I don't know why that always got hung up in quicksand. I also think that in a way, although maybe you can talk me out of it, this seems like it belongs on your your that the Adam Carolla bucket list like diving into a body of water with a knife betwixt your teeth. I find that was a great changing, successfully changing your own identity like Rutger Hauer midway through the movie you and I have argued about before Nighthawks was. You didn't like it. I think you're wrong. Hmm. But that is a fascinating plot point that he's he's one guy is a terrorist, and then he gets caught. So then he has plastic surgery and then he's Rutger Hauer, and then they can't find him anymore. But sliced alone is commits. I can still find him if I can just look him in the eyes. So he's in New York City and he just goes around New York City looking everybody in the eyes that takes several days. If anyone knows the populace in New York City. Yeah, it's going to take a man goes into a nightclub and he's like, Look, just leave me alone. I got to look everybody here in the light. This is going to take you a long time sly. What's more unrealistic? A scenario that our face off? Hmm. When Travolta, yes, switches to Cage, his guy gets himself thrown in prison so he can get some information off his brother and his brothers immediately suspect. Yes, that there's somebody else like literally what medication is that, bro, why you're you cannot as we've talked about you, if you have a high wacky concept like, hey, the two stars are going to take their faces off and swap them, and that's going to be that, then they're going to everybody's going to think they're OK. Don't go see the movie. Don't come out of that movie and say it was so unrealistic they swap faces. Well, you knew they were swapping faces before you went to see it. You don't get to complain about that. What Ace is talking about is we park our cars in the same garage here. You can't have characters questioning the premise of the movie. In the middle of the movie. You can't be like, I don't know if you're real. Why would you doubt that that is your brother? What I'm what earthly reason we do in high security prisons in the man? This might be the really. But he put my brother's face on. I do what? I don't have an, you know, evil mastermind, homicidal brother. But I do have a sister. And there's no way there was ever a Thanksgiving when Lauren showed up at my house holding, you know, a casserole dish. And I was like, Not so fast. I thought, what was the name of the five and dime that we used to go there as a kid? Quigley's OK, OK, but I was watching you come in, but I would keep an eye on it. I got it. But why would you question a person that looked and sounded exactly like your brother, Pollack's Troy? That's the brother, right? Castor, Troy, Castor, and of course, my favorite. Not Nancy. I'm sorry. I'm a I'm vain. And I have to say the funniest part of of all the face off on there many, many candidates there. Ace's description of a John Woo movie. That's the high watermark for Wu's filmography. At the very end. Now, as you know, they it starts with their having surgery. Pretty risky, probably experimental to swap faces. And all that just to catch a bad guy. You do all that. And in the process of tracking down this, this horrible killer, you know, you get shot and stabbed by him. You go through a lot then, and your wife in the meantime, is making time with your arch nemesis, who she thinks is you. I mean, you know, nothing, nothing more awful than that. No greater violation. He goes through physical, emotional and spiritual torment throughout the picture. He succeeds. Now he has to get the face swapped off because Castor Troy is dead. Final scene She's sitting at home on the on the computer and we see John Travolta shadow walking on the porch, opening the front door. Oh, it's Travolta. You're back. Yeah, I thought you were getting out of the hospital next Wednesday. I jump in there to pick you up. I didn't come to begin. He just had his face read playing it on, and she couldn't pick him up at the hospital. I had some emails I had to. I had to get sure. It's an outrage, you see. She just batted down with the bad guy, too. Also, she's a rape victim, right? Yes. All right. Hold on. Then he brings, and then they bring Castor, Troy's little boy. He travolta. That's that's the cherry on top. Hey, I brought Castor Troy. He's now dead and I brought his son and he's like seven years old and now he doesn't have a family. I brought him here. What do you think? Can we raise him? What if she says no? Hasn't the little kid been through a lot lately? Now your daddy is some lady who he doesn't even know. So like, I don't want him. Get him out of here, like all right back to the pound kid. Next time, next time you're here, I want to do this with you and make a note of it, Joe, because I have a s**t and I obsess. But if I was there certain movies where I'm positive that they came up with the name before they came up with the premise and face off as one of them, some of the show went face off and they go, What's it about? I don't know. You just said it based on Silent Night, Deadly Night. Somebody just said that. And then they went, What is that and what is it? Well, I'll tell you what it's going to be. It's a horror movie about Christmas, so I just. But that's the title. And then we'll do the movie around the title.

But there are a handful of movies where I listen. I was a stand in on Judgment Night, right? Yeah, it came up with Judgment Night. I clearly came up with that title before they wrote the premise underneath it. All right. Check the box. Hey, I bet that's about a box. The movie?

Oh, sorry, 86. Then into that. But that's not 89. You know what I mean? That's it. My first championship in 89 second one and ninety third one in 96 and then my fourth one in 2000, and then I went on television. Oh yeah, that's a good damn run show that while started four years earlier, their ace and knee really was in line to maybe win a national championship with Crimmins and Co. down there.

Like all good man, I drink something like that time, you know? The Georgia Tech prides on Typekit. I'm a nerd. So if you're not heard about that, yes. Yeah, no, I did. But I mean, that's deep nerd is a ride share that is a deep a*s cut. But you right? Do it fast. Yeah. And you know, the Georgia Tech fights, I had no right to that point. Sorry to hear Mike up a little bit there. I know it just at that point. It's something like you would like it because of age, because it's something like like, Oh good men, I drink my stuff and it's I'm drinking. It's non-Black thing is gone. Yeah, black is no rhythm to it and also just drinking beer. Yeah, I realize the black is a black drink, gin and juice. No, no. It's just a song. No. Yeah, just just a song. Didn't Snoop come out with gin and juice? He did. Now he has a wine that sells all over the world. Is it good wine? Yeah. Oh, it is. Yeah, he has a good wine and it has. The cool part is it has augmented reality soon. As you put your phone up to it, all of a sudden you see the cartoon talking and explaining the wine. Really? Yeah, yeah, he has a really good branding on this wine. Snoop is Snoop is bigger now and he's ever been and better, which is good. It's it's crazy. I mean, between him and Shaq, it's nuts, right? Yeah. What can't they endorse? How or how much more money can they make who? And also, you know, Snoop, if you go back to the early days of Snoop, you know, not a lot. You know, you wouldn't think Madison Avenue would open its arms to this guy, but you would have thought, you know, the early version of Don King was not palatable to most America, either. But we love a non-threatening black man who used to be threatening who's turned the corner. George Foreman, you know, he said, with Mike Tyson, I looked around, Yeah, it's like, OK, you know, Tyson, we love Tyson now. You know what I mean? They love the former sort of menacing black man who's now cuddling a menacing period because it's funny. You say that if you just hang in long enough, people will be like, Oh, how long can I carry over? Like, no one's afraid of Mr. T? Well, how about Gordon Liddy on the other side, like he at some point he just hung in long and I was like, I give him a show. He's a, he's a celebrity. Let him go. Who cares what he did? Yeah. So that guy? Yeah, he's printing money now. He's making some money. God bless bitcoin. Is your doc. Yeah, man, I got to be a as well. Yeah, I got to be a producer on it. And this is a trip. I heard about that about bitcoin in the early 2000's. Like everybody else, no one knew what was happening. And, you know, buy it by 18. My boy Nolan, it was like, Yo, man, I just bought this and I'm doing so well. I've been. I mean, what are you talking about? And it was bitcoin, and he had gotten in and was able to make fast money. And I thought, Man, it can't be two thousand nineteen. I'm at the bitcoin conference. And, you know, bitcoin people kind of like Jehovah witnesses. They stated their own and they're they're stuck on it. And everything else is f as. Bitcoin is a sugar honey coin. You figure out the letters and they stick to that and they're right. So I got to speak up into the well, room. That's where the big spenders were. And. At the time, it was like at $50000. Right? Mm hmm. And I was like, What does that mean? And then it went to 56000 and it went down. And then when I was able to be involved with Brian and making this God bless bitcoin, at first I was thinking it was going to be some Christian thing or whatever with some religious pot into it. But the the the money used to say, God bless America. Right? So that's kind of where he got that off. God bless America. God bless bitcoin. And I got into it and started realizing this is the best saving account you can get. You can put $200 $50. You can buy it with Venmo. Donald Trump was talking about bitcoin globally. The government was talking about starting their own coin, so everybody's got to fight it. I'm sure when the car came around, I think you told me that people thought it made him want to give up their horses and the carriages. Eventually, there was no room for, you know, for horses and characters. You had to have a car that's the same way. And with the way the world is going financially, this is secure. You get rid of a lot of things and you can feel secure in this. So the government's not going to want this are there or whether they're going to want to wet their beak, right? They have it or what's in it for them. You already have the US coin. Yeah, that goes in the blockchain. So the blockchain is entirely this was like literally three years of me stopping what I was doing, meeting with people, reading books on it to the point where at the Milken last year I was at the Milken Conference and I met the CEO of the blockchain. And she explained, bitcoin is one thing on how many things can happen on the blockchain, so it's just getting into the future. And you know, Brian literally made this for millions of dollars and then realized that this could really help people. So he put it out free. It's a really good looking doc like you can tell it's well-made. Yeah, dogs that are not as skillfully made. No, the director. The director is the bob famous Micah. He's he's he's he's dope. And I'm telling you, I watch it. I got. Let me see Tony Hawk to speak on it. And then I had the best of all, come on and drove himself. He was a billionaire who owns the Dallas Mavericks. Yeah, Mark Cuban was an asset, and he said, Hey, I'm doing this thing. Would you come and sit down? He came and sat down for two hours, bro. Yeah, drove herself. And I'm thinking, I see guys who have one hit record have four security guards, three vans, bulletproof vest like Cuban is driving himself. Yeah, I was like that, right? Did changes everything. He is. I heard him described as the coolest billionaire going, and he I think he kind of achieves that right human sort of calm, common sense kind of vibes coming off of him. Yeah, yeah. He's the the greatest I've ever. I was still playing. I would love to play down there in Dallas. It would have been a great place to play. He makes it very comfortable, very, very comfortable. Guys do not want to leave that team. Who would you like to play for beside Dallas right now? Right now, I would want to play for the Lakers. You would. Yeah, because I would love to play alongside or even be in practice with LeBron James. I think he's unbelievable. When I was on the best damn sports show, I apologize to him for saying he shouldn't have been a number one pick. I was Carmelo Anthony fan, which I still am a huge fan. But LeBron has done things. He had four careers within this 40 years. He's been playing women, playing 40 years, right? He's he literally has four great careers everywhere. He's gone. They won him like, you know, kind of like me, know everywhere. He's gone, but they won because of him. And it's I would love to play on a team, but I if I can ask a couple of things, first of all, one thing that fascinates me, you, you are a key rotational member for the bad boys winning titles and all that. A decade later, you're still in the league with Shaq and Kobe in that crew. When and the title. It strikes me that boy, that would be a hard pivot to make to be like you were a key member of this team. Now you're at the end of the bench. What I'm asking is just exactly how much fun is it leaving the NBA lifestyle? Because it must be pretty good if you are, you know, you or anybody else who's like, Oh, I ain't given this up until they make me walk away from here. Yeah, I really should have fought to stay. I'm telling you, think about this. I go from being number seven. So just five 10, Vinnie would come in. Then sometime Mark Grier will come in that I would come in. But like I tell people, I didn't start, but I finished like Chuck felt important that I was at two at the end of the game, so that's more important to me. Vinnie, many jobs, he had a microwave every good. Mm hmm. And Mike McGuire and. But when I got on a Lakers like Phil said, I'm going to play every five games so I wouldn't get taped. So it was those five games. Can you imagine I played one on one with Kobe every day because he never left the gym? So let's play one on one. I'm a bit old. You're not going to beat me. I'm going to back you down and shoot over you. But he would be in the gym, and I used to say, Man, that pay me to stay in shape. They came. So when I see guys not in shape, I don't understand how you could not be and say, if you just have to go to be in shape. So when they call your number, you do what you supposed to do and get off the court. That's it. You just got to stay in shape. Were you there with Kobe during his rookie? No, he was. He was a third year, wasn't it? Well, he was. He was 20 years old, about to turn 21 for its first champion. And how are those one on one games? It was great, like no one believed me, and then I had him on the best damn sports show. Say, who did you play one on one who had saw who won every game? So and I'm going to win. I said, I get the ball first. I'm older and I'm Tyler Tyler. We're only going to play the five. I'm going to back you down. Score. You're going to get the ball if you score. I don't care. I'm not going to miss this layup every time we play. But he was playing like it was a championship game. Mm-Hmm. Let's run it back. I'm too old to run back. You lost again. And I'm I'm out of it. But he he definitely we used to watch film, which was it's it's crazy to say that because there's no such thing now. But he had a VCR with tons of games from the 80s and 90s. Mm-Hmm. He would watch everybody and Sidney Montgomery, nick name people probably remember Sidney Moncrief. Yeah, he would have, well, be free. Well, he he didn't have, well, be free because his father played, but he would have people do things that you didn't, really. They don't talk about Nambia anymore. Mm hmm. Great defensive player. Great shooter. Great slash to the back. He would watch those and watch everything on Michael. So he was learning by sight and then going out on a court and trying to get that move, knowing if he goes like this, the guy's usually go Li like that. That's when he can pull up. He knew where to have his hand every time he was. Soon he shot the ball so many times that when it didn't go in and he looked at the ball like, You know what you supposed to do? All right. It was. It was amazing. It's like I was like, Mike Tyson. Yes, as a student watching all the old black and white fighters and everything and try, yeah, that's a great analog. That's exactly right. The you know, what people don't remember is I think it was 81 82 ish. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Dr. J on pay per view played one on one right and is the most boring thing you ever look at. You think, Oh, the two best players in in Pro Basma, because exactly what you Kareem can just back him down over and over and over again. It does not surprise me to hear that I do think we need to replace the existing All-Star Game with a one on one tournament that would be great for divisions. You go six, three and under. But basketball is a team game. No, no, no. But this will be better. And by the way, one more thing for you with the Olympics just wrapped? Don't you think? Did you watch the Olympics? Yes. The swimming thing they got in, they got one lap. Yeah, it's great. It's very exciting. And you just won a medal the same person later that night at another event. Do you want another medal? These basketball players go. They do all these pre tournaments and practices. Then they play all these games from people all over the world trying to take them down. And at the end, one medal for all year. One man, yeah, the swimmer guy, don't you don't. You get 11. Yeah, you're right. She won. She won 11 medals in about 11 hours. I've been out here busting my a*s for four six weeks, one medal. I like the fact that everyone had to do the right thing and that, yeah, I didn't care for that and didn't care for it. I mean, I don't know. Somebody did it first. Women's gymnastics or somebody did it first. All right. They did it. Now the guys who win the medal in basketball don't need not everyone. One the guy in archery doesn't need to do it. Do something else. Yeah, celebrate in another way. Like, I don't know. Pull out a meter or something. Don't just sit there. And I think they just thought that that was the picture they all wanted because they were all knowing they were getting those pictures. Yeah, the other one check in this this Janice should piss you off too. Drives me nuts. And maybe we can affect this at the NFL. Especially remember about two or three years ago when the receiver speedy guy would catch the ball, take it to the house, would do the double motorcycle handgrip thing. They go, Oh, they're doing that. They hold their hands up in front of them, get about two feet apart and do the throttle motorcycle thing. Motorcycle only has a throttle on board. There is no dual throttle. You would be sued out of every Harley Davidson company spent around one hundred and twenty two years. They've never made a motorcycle with two throttles. That's only one. It's somebody it's going to come across as condescending if I tell these guys, right? Yeah, it is coming for us how these guys you hold the left hand, that's your clutch can do the clutch move with the left hand, in the throttle with the right. You know what I mean? Or just leave the clutch a lot. Don't you know what? You don't tell the squeeze that's going to be going to get confused. Clutch hand, just left hand. Right hand is the throttle hand. There is no tune drop. Hey, new, you do the spider Sally here to tell you to do this to be accurate depiction? Definitely. Now let's pull up some film. You know, let's watch a little game film. Yeah, I think that I think is the dance coming from Young Jeezy in his video that they're emulating. And Jeezy did it right. He only used one hand, just sat around the stop. Yes. The rest of them did it differently. It wasn't easy. I'm sorry. Young Gotti, young gotti. Yeah, I think it was. Let's see if you can't see from that video was it? Uh, I don't know. You know, Fat Joe did lean, but I can't remember it right now. That put me on the spot. I think it was yo gotti. It was taken from a rap video. Yes, but he he kept it real. He didn't do both hands. He didn't. OK. And I remember that. Now, did you say it? Explain to them that some bikes, like maybe Indians in the 20s and 30s, had a throttle down by the tank that maybe they could use as a substitute, but not anything but both hands. Do you don't want to be both had it got it? There's old, black and white or red grange manipulating the Indian handle, but quick to label that up like that as part of your presentation. So young duty who? Young Gotti, yo gotti. I think it is. Yo. Yeah. So somebody did a popular rap VIDEO The guys in the NFL, the speedy guys, saw the video and started doing the thing, except for you saying he had a throttle hand and a clutch. Yes. Was he doing the clutch? Yeah, he was hanging on. It was just staying there and he had it next to it. All right, because you have to tell these guys to that. If you do the final, no, I'll do it. Have an annual black guy meeting you do the throttle. I'm bringing the potato salad. You don't want raisins in the viz.. Oh, I heard the woman. I heard the woman mac and cheese. No g*****n raisins. All right. Tell them they do the throttle too long. They're going to have to pull the clutch because we're not staying in the same gear. You know what I mean? You can't. We're whining at the meeting I get at the meeting. All right. Put that down. I got that. You lose to in 86. I can't think of it. It's bugging me. Dalrymple Price LSU. It was LSU. Yeah, yeah, LSU. And then that guy day. Danny died after he didn't make it to the draft. White dude was cooking us. Really? Yeah, he wound up dying. I think like six six months later, I about that. Yeah, but you don't know that story. Yeah. I don't know. All I remember is I had John Williams and I was a big, a big thing. They used to call him, you know, hot plate. I don't want to go to his name and my brain was like, Don't let him play well. And I, I'm doing my thing. But this kid, his last name was read. I think it was he. He smoked this for like twenty eight. We lost in Atlanta to in the elite elite. I vaguely recall, but we didn't make it to the 16. But you, you guys were such a fun team that you, yeah, he was a white guy like the perimeter guy or no guy who died. Yeah, he was a hero. He was a small forward white dude. Same team as John Williams was like, pick to be the number one player. Mm hmm. And he had this guy in a squad who was really putting in the work. John wound up getting drafted, I think 12 or 13, maybe even 14 to Washington, and his career just didn't take off like they thought he was in gain weight. And, you know, life would be life and as they say, and but this kid, they kicked out. But the coolest thing about losing and then he died. He never made it to that made it to the league. Wow. Think he might have had a heart situation, which most players do? Best thing is that was the end of my college career coach. Crimmins couldn't tell me anything. He literally knew that too. I moved out of the dorm the next week. They had these cool satin finish to get. They said they were home and away. Sometimes you wear the Navy, but the Navy sat and do they look? They looked very smart. You would have been impressed by by this team, the very short shorts that yeah. Yeah. Towards the end of that era, yeah. Well, that era carried over into the NBA when it seemed like guys want it sure to show it to the hot plate. Williams and then Stanley Roberts, both LSU low pivot guys who ate themselves out of the league. Yeah. And Shaq Fu had a little trouble, too. What would you base Kobe or Shaq? Talk about yin and yang of the Lakers dynasty of the 21st century. I get that it is. You know, Piers, look at Kobe and say, Man, that guy's work ethic was second to none. That's why I admire him so much. I would definitely be. I know this is not great, but I would be much more like Shaq. I'm dominant. What do I have to work so hard for? Wow, I great. I be Lawrence Taylor. Yeah, I mean, really, I really would do some coke. I'm going to do some hiring. And when you guys get three and a half sacks a game, then we can talk stuff. Most nights I'm going to dominate you. Like, I ride. Maybe not every night, but I'm going to. Yeah, I'm going to come out on top. Most of the things you remember when Shaq left Miami and went down to Miami. He came back out. He was in shape, bro. And he was a problem, I tell people. They always say Kareem or Shaquille. If you were to pick right, you got to. People say Kareem is gone, whatever. But Shaquille was, so it was just like Mike Tyson, you know, if he caught the ball and he turned and he sort of rim and he didn't care if you were in between it. Blunt force. He was trying to get a room down. All right, we got. Brian Estes is a director writer of the film. Yeah, bless bitcoin. Hey, bro is zooming in. We'll take a quick break.

Eight-Man Jim from Montana, I'm down in Alabama traveling for work, I'm currently stuck behind a truck in traffic. It's been about 20 minutes. There's a nice little bumper sticker that reads, f**k you, get it on. You can leave us a message at eight eight eight six three four one seven four four. Ryan asked, It's not Estes est it's a he is a filmmaker. He's a director and a good friend of John Sayles. Now the documentary God bless bitcoin. Good to see you, Bryan. Good to see you, Adam. Been a long time fan. Thanks. So you're sort of backgrounds, kind of financial, right, MBA and and that sort of thing. What should people know about bitcoin? It scares people because it's invisible, and a lot of people don't trust that. But there, but there have trepidation. But then they hear about people doing real well with it, like, what would you say to someone who just said, Look, I got a hundred grand to invest. I'd like to be. I'd like to diversify, but I would. I'm interested in bitcoin. What do you think? What would you say to them? Yeah. So I spend my first 20 years as a financial advisor. I manage money for endowments and institutional investors, and I learned about bitcoin 10 years ago and I thought the same thing. I thought it was a total scam. I thought it was a pump and dump scheme. Very skeptical about it. But after I delve into it, they'll learn what it really was. I, I just understood 10 years ago that we were going to rebuild our entire financial system on this blockchain blockchain technology. And so what I would tell people is, you know, do what I did go out. Be curious. Learn about it. It's not. It doesn't come easy. So and that's one of the reasons we made this movie is so that we could, you know, take 10 years of knowledge that I have and compact it into 89 minutes so that people could really understand what this technology is all about. So, yeah, in my humble opinion, I think everybody needs to have a little bit of bitcoin. And the reason is that for the last three thousand years, up until 1971, we were on a gold and silver standard. We, as humans, use gold and silver as money. And in 1971, President Nixon took the U.S. off the gold standard. So for the past fifty three years, we've been running an experiment and that experiment is government printed money. And that system is in the process of failing, and we as humans will opt back in to a hard money system. And in my opinion, I don't think it's should be gold. It's gonna the new version of gold, which we call bitcoin. And it's just a gradual thing. About one percent of the world understands that today. But as the 99 percent of the world starts to understand it, then we'll just naturally opt in because it's the best form of money humans have ever created. Is I always hear about the energy expenditure for the computers, and I never quite intellectually understand how that works. The amount of energy used to mine mine, a something that is digital, something that doesn't, you know, not physical. Why does it take so much? Is it just calculating power? Exactly. It's called a hash rate. And so what that means is that the way the system is created is that when it first started 15 years ago, there were no bitcoin available and there's a maximum supply of 21 million bitcoin. But to move bitcoin through the system, you have to incentivize people to clear the transactions on the network. People volunteer to do that. So when you clear a transaction at this hour, Bank of America or PayPal, those companies pay for their own electric bill and their own employees to move that money. Well, who pays the bitcoin network? Who who pays to move the money on the bitcoin network? Well, people volunteer to do it. And if you volunteered to move the transactions on the network, you get rewarded in bitcoin. And so that reward, it's a competition. And every ten minutes, there is a new bitcoin released or rewarded out of the system, and it goes to the people that are clearing these transactions. And so there is a competition. And the faster your computer is, the more likely it is that you'll get that reward. And so people buy. Faster and faster computers and by more and more computers to hook up into the system, and that's what uses that electricity. It's a competition. And so they're competing for that reward, that reward in bitcoin. Today there's four hundred and fifty bitcoin a day that gets rewarded out and that gets cut in half about every four years. And so there's been four of those have things so far out of thirty two. So there's twenty eight more having to go. And then all the bitcoin will be released will be 21 million. So is it your belief? Or at least I shouldn't say belief, but like understanding that whatever we're doing financially as a government, it's not really sustainable. Printing more money, in other words, and spreading it around and having a growing deficit and then having to pay the interest on the deficit and then printing more money there. There are certain economists who think we can just print money in perpetuity. I disagree with that. I think everyone would rather have a sort of balanced budget, but current politicians kind of scare me in that they just feel like they can just print their way out of and hand their money over to you. I mean, certainly just got out of that with COVID, where we literally just paid people to stay home and people lost a little muscle memory and had an attitude problem and did not want to go back to to work. People went back. Yeah, I didn't even know so. And also, bitcoin seems like an extension of when we grow up. You know, one of the things I've said, I'll filibuster for a second. Then you jump in, Brian. But I said one of the bigger issues in modern day society is money is now invisible. You and I and everyone we knew growing up had to physically collect the money. When the ice cream truck would come by, you'd beg your dad for a quarter dollar, whatever you'd look for change. I used to turn in bottles that were redeemable to get money to liquor from liquor stores to get a movie ticket and then, you know, walked in the theater, all this old old stuff. But what I'm saying is, is now it's invisible. And so like my kids, when they, you know, order Grubhub on their phone on Apple Pay, do not connect it to me working at all. There is no correlation between me going to bum f**k every weekend and sweating it out on the stage and having a f**king fly southwest and take uber cheap on the way back to Burbank airport that they're buying Uber with their phone. Yeah, yeah, that's the phone. Bought them the food, not the guy who does the work to buy. And the appreciation is completely and utterly gone because we can remember, like hitting our dads have come on, dad, go on. We're going to have any guy. He get the money out to go one day, you know, and give me a lecture the whole time, you know, time had to be a work of money, three hours or he's in together. That last dollar among the coins, right? Yeah. Terry Nichols. And you understood what it was, who worked for it, how and now it's gone. And that's why kids are having problems. And that's why everyone's having a problems like, I want to get paid, but I want to have to go into work, right? You know, everything's just invisible. Just give me more invisible money. How do you tip? Where's my universal income and all that stuff? But bitcoin is just, it seems like the nest extension of invisible money. But sorry, Bryce, I know that I grew up the same way, Adam, so and I would take the opposite view. Bitcoin is the hardest money humans have ever created, and it's the sound is money. And when you watch a movie, you'll understand what those terms mean. But basically, bitcoin requires what you just said proof of work. Those people have to plug in their machines, spend electricity, pay those electric bills. They have to expend energy to create bitcoin. Bitcoin is like, think of it as like a battery that never loses its power. Once that energy goes into that battery, it stays there. Once it goes into that bitcoin, it stays there. It never dissipates. Right. And you could take that energy and that value and keep it forever and without concluded the problem with our money. Today, it gets diluted. We have Father Sirico in the movie talking about. It's like diluting the wine with water, which is unethical. You know, the Bible says, you know, you shouldn't have your thumb on the scale. You shouldn't dilute the wine with the water. The government's doing that all day long. They're they're printing more money. It dilutes your purchasing power. So the dollar, the dollar that you're working for today, if you cap it and dollar, it's only buying 50 cents worth. The goods and 10 years. In fact, if you look at six years ago, a thousand dollars in your bank account only buys you five hundred and twenty dollars worth of goods and services today. And the reason is that the government printed forty eight percent more dollars over the last six years. And so we all got deluded. And so bitcoin, you can't dilute. It's the hardest thing we ever created. And that's what makes it more ethical. And that's one of the reasons we named the movie God bless bitcoin. Because if you go back to the sacred texts and Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, they all kind of say the same thing about money and morality and ethics. And so we wanted to drill down to the core beliefs that we all as humans have, and those are what are espoused in the sacred text. And that's what we based the movie off of. You also said that bitcoin is a really good piggy bank like it's a great saving account. Mm-Hmm. Because you can put I met this one guy. He was put in $400 a week in bitcoin to start in 2013. I think he was then he he's putting it at all. His kids name two thousand twenty three Jim Crow in my pocket and he is like my kid. Oh, I'm laughing right now. He was like, Yeah, my kids are good. They don't have to. If they want a career, they can go, Do it like this saved. I even saw something when I first got in business with Brian. We had this thing in Malibu. It was a whole bunch of people who were investors in bitcoin. So Brian, explain investing in the bitcoin. How could they invest in bitcoin since there's only 21 million of them? Yeah. So most people think you have to buy one whole bitcoin and a whole bitcoin's like $60000 today. So most people can't afford to buy a bitcoin, but bitcoin is divisible up to eight decimal points. So what that means is are the 100 million units to one bitcoin. That smallest unit is called a Satoshi. So there is 100 million. Satoshi is per one bitcoin, so you could invest it any amount it takes. About 15. Satoshi is the equal one penny. So you could buy, you know, a five dollars worth of bitcoin if you want people do that. Yeah, I heard you talk earlier, like on Venmo. If you go to your Venmo app and look at the bottom, it says crypto, you touch that button. You can buy bitcoin right there. You put in, you know, $5 a week and you go into bitcoin there. You could use PayPal. You could use one bitcoin, which is based in Malibu. You could use river financial Coinbase, which was an early company I helped with 10 years ago. You know, there's all sorts of ways and platforms to get access to bitcoin. And like John, like you said, you know, you could take the best way to think about bitcoin is as a savings account. You know, your account is your dollars. You know, then when you spend money, you spend dollars. When you have extra dollars, you need to preserve those and something that won't get diluted. And in my opinion, the best asset out there, the sick, those dollars on his bitcoin. I was talking to Nate Silver last week about interviewing Sam Pankonin phrase. I get his name right. But I again, I'm a, you know, a newborn in this subject. But did did Sam Bankman-Fried in the whole Tom Brady thing? Did they set the movement back up or at least slow its roll or stymie it a little bit or do some damage? I don't know. In a way, it's like, well, Audi stole the car and some guy got run over by his own Audi because he put it in park. And then he went in front of the garage and then the brake gave way. And that that hurts. Audi stock regains and people forget. But for that moment, it's tough for the stock owners. Was that sort of situation with him and his situation and bitcoin? You really don't like Audi, huh? Actually, he ran over its own brand there from Star Trek. Remember that? Oh, no, no, I'm a Star Wars ace. I was a star. I there was a star. Look it up, Joe, the guy from Star Trek, was like an actor. You're a young actor. Put a Jeep Cherokee and whatever went and go get his mailbox or whatever. Anton Yelchin. And you got run over by some car guys now. Yes. Yeah, right, right, right. Don't know that kid of you saw him? Yeah, that was a sad story. I'm sorry. Sorry, bro. All right. So I checked out for a month. Yeah. So Sam Bankman-Fried was a con. Others just like Bernie Madoff. So what Sam was doing was the people. He had an exchange. People were putting money with his exchange and buying bitcoin. They would get a confirmation show and they bought bitcoin. But he wasn't buying the bitcoin from for them. But he was. He was taking their dollars and transferring them to his hedge fund to cover up the losses in his hedge fund. Mm hmm. And finally, people figure that out. And you know, and basically, you know, there was a run on the bank and then when there was a run on FTI X, he had to shut it down. And then all the fraud came out. You know what he was doing? So he was just, you know, he was just a scammer. So I can have an exchange. I can get an exchange. You can help me get an exchange, just like swapping bitcoin in the Malibu. Or I can get an exchange and then get people. So I was like, I can get my own bank. So there is, there is. So Sam, he had his company in the Bahamas, so, you know, in the, you know, Cayman Islands and so sorry, in the Caymans, not the Bahamas. But yeah, so he was an unregulated exchange inside the U.S. like Swan, Bitcoin, River Financial, Coinbase, Fidelity. Those are registered exchanges in the U.S. 40x was outside the U.S., outside the regulatory system, and there was no oversight there. Mm hmm. And it's just going to be a part of our lives and a much bigger way for this, you know, kind of point on in perpetuity. Another car analogy. When we we we grew up, you know, three quarters of the cars on the road were manual shifts. And now every thing's automatic. There's no such thing as a manual shift. No one knows how to drive when doesn't exist. Is it going to be that kind of way where it's like it was this and that when we're younger, but for twenty five years from now, it's just going to be ubiquitous. Right. So what we're doing is we're digitizing money into a form that has, you know, value. That's what you can call it is we have digital property rights now. So this is the first time we've ever had digital property rights. And so what this is going to, you know, use your analogy. The best analogy I could use, as you know, remember when we used to pay long distance phone bills? Yes. And my girlfriend lived, you know, across town and I had a caller was 50 cents, you know, a minute to call her and my dad would yell at me all the time, Why are you running up the phone bill, calling your girlfriend? And so we don't pay a long distance phone bills anymore. And the reason is that we have a piece of software called voice over Internet Protocol. VIDEO E and that's what bitcoin is. Bitcoin is money over internet protocol. And so just like long distance fees went away, eventually financial transaction fees will go away, too. So all the credit card fees that you pay, the PayPal fees, the Visa, MasterCard fees, wire fees, the world spends two trillion dollars a year moving our money around. And those fees are on go down 99 percent over the next five to 10 years as we adopt this money over internet protocol software called bitcoin. And that's why the banks are against it. That's why, you know, a lot of incumbents don't want to see bitcoin thrive is because they lose all that fee revenue does. And what about companies that sell like gold and silver? Are they against it? I'm trying to think of like, who's going to argue against this the most? Yeah. So gold and silver? You know, like you said earlier, we as humans use that for three thousand years until 1971. So it's a proven store of value. And so if you look at what's called, you know, Basel three, you know, you could have cash, you could have gold as primary money. Bitcoin is another source of primary money. And what primary money means is that there's no counterparty to that. You know, when you own bitcoin, you own that digital asset. There's no counterpart. No no one else could own it. If you own it, it's like a bearer instrument. And so of the movie die hard when they were trying to go down and not familiar with that title. I watch mostly art house stuff. A European subtitled stuff, but anyway, I'll go along with you, you know, with a movie called Die Hard that was produced. You know, when they break into the safe down at, you know, at the end of the movie and they those are called bearer bonds. So a big bond is whoever has possession of the bond owns the bond. And that's what the point is. That's what gold is. If I hold a bar of gold, I own that gold. If I own bitcoin in my wallet and my digital wallet, I own that no one else has a counterparty to that. You know, I own it. It's a bearer instrument. It's the first time in human history there's been a digital bearer instrument, and that's why it's so important. And like I said, most of the world doesn't understand that today. But as the world starts to understand, then people will want to own their own digital bearer instrument. So it's one second. What so? So these people just steal these bear bonds. No one tries to disrupt them in this movie you speak of, I saw you saw Beverly Hills Cop. Remember Eddie Murphy's guy guy? Also not familiar with that, Adam. Is that a movie that? I've heard of a city I am not familiar with Edward Everett, Edward G. Murphy never again more heinous. Chagla, like French Start of European 40 stuff is kind of my wheelhouse, but I can't not. I'm going to take your word for it. I'll go back and look up this Edward Murphy reference. And yeah, he's done a couple of movies. Yes, Duke is to do comedy. Still does this now, right? Beverly Hills Cop one The other one was called Tom. Hard, die hard. Die hard. Excuse me. All right. All right. But you know, I was in New York this past week, and when I went to a bodega to get a lighter, I turned and looked at the ATM and they have advertisement and they're advertising that you can get bitcoin or put money into your bitcoin account due to the ATM. Yeah. Wow. Ubiquitous God bless bitcoin is the name of the movie it's available on. God bless Bitcoin.com for free. Yes, right? Which I like. Great man here.
