1
00:00:05,430 --> 00:00:03,909
but it's difficult to avoid this because

2
00:00:07,349 --> 00:00:05,440
many of these questions or almost all of

3
00:00:08,950 --> 00:00:07,359
them are directed toward me so how can i

4
00:00:10,709 --> 00:00:08,960
answer them without speaking my personal

5
00:00:11,990 --> 00:00:10,719
experience and at the same time i am

6
00:00:13,589 --> 00:00:12,000
guided by

7
00:00:16,230 --> 00:00:13,599
a screenwriting adage which says that

8
00:00:18,790 --> 00:00:16,240
the more personal the pain the more

9
00:00:20,550 --> 00:00:18,800
general it is which means that the more

10
00:00:22,950 --> 00:00:20,560
specific you can get with being

11
00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:22,960
wholeheartedly open the more

12
00:00:25,509 --> 00:00:23,840
people

13
00:00:27,269 --> 00:00:25,519
resonate with it rather than staying at

14
00:00:28,630 --> 00:00:27,279
a superficial

15
00:00:30,150 --> 00:00:28,640
high level

16
00:00:32,229 --> 00:00:30,160
that's actually one of the guiding

17
00:00:33,990 --> 00:00:32,239
principles of the podcast itself that's

18
00:00:34,790 --> 00:00:34,000
one of the reasons why i try to get into

19
00:00:35,590 --> 00:00:34,800
as

20
00:00:37,590 --> 00:00:35,600
much

21
00:00:39,670 --> 00:00:37,600
meticulous technicalities as i possibly

22
00:00:41,910 --> 00:00:39,680
can because that's what i would like to

23
00:00:43,990 --> 00:00:41,920
know and i imagine that the audience is

24
00:00:44,709 --> 00:00:44,000
more engaged the more i'm engaged even

25
00:00:46,150 --> 00:00:44,719
if

26
00:00:47,750 --> 00:00:46,160
sometimes

27
00:00:50,069 --> 00:00:47,760
some of the terminology goes over some

28
00:00:53,029 --> 00:00:50,079
of the people's heads not all the people

29
00:00:54,950 --> 00:00:53,039
the this podcast tends to have a huge

30
00:00:57,029 --> 00:00:54,960
a huge following of extremely bright

31
00:01:00,150 --> 00:00:57,039
people brighter than myself

32
00:01:02,549 --> 00:01:00,160
and that's extremely

33
00:01:05,189 --> 00:01:02,559
flattering

34
00:01:07,350 --> 00:01:05,199
if i seem nervous it is because i am i

35
00:01:10,789 --> 00:01:07,360
am nervous i'm not comfortable speaking

36
00:01:15,350 --> 00:01:12,390
if i'm darting my eyes around it's

37
00:01:19,350 --> 00:01:15,360
because i'm thinking i can give you some

38
00:01:22,149 --> 00:01:20,310
i get

39
00:01:23,190 --> 00:01:22,159
notes about my furrowed brows and i'm

40
00:01:24,870 --> 00:01:23,200
constantly

41
00:01:27,109 --> 00:01:24,880
looking as if i'm angry and i'm not

42
00:01:28,710 --> 00:01:27,119
angry my wife even comes to me at times

43
00:01:30,069 --> 00:01:28,720
and i have to bark at her i feel bad

44
00:01:32,870 --> 00:01:30,079
because she thinks i'm angry but i'm

45
00:01:35,270 --> 00:01:32,880
thinking and i'm in such such deep

46
00:01:37,270 --> 00:01:35,280
thought stacked upon one another as soon

47
00:01:38,310 --> 00:01:37,280
as she comes to me said babe are you

48
00:01:41,510 --> 00:01:38,320
okay

49
00:01:44,550 --> 00:01:41,520
i'm thinking i'm if i'm mad i'll let you

50
00:01:46,069 --> 00:01:44,560
know if i'm mad don't bother me i'm

51
00:01:50,149 --> 00:01:46,079
speaking somewhat quietly because she's

52
00:01:54,710 --> 00:01:53,109
okay akash 1996 asks tell us something

53
00:01:56,389 --> 00:01:54,720
about yourself who are you what is your

54
00:01:57,590 --> 00:01:56,399
science background when and why did you

55
00:01:58,789 --> 00:01:57,600
start your youtube channel what are your

56
00:02:00,550 --> 00:01:58,799
aims what are your dreams in general

57
00:02:02,310 --> 00:02:00,560
general okay so that's quite a few

58
00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:02,320
questions man

59
00:02:05,510 --> 00:02:03,840
akash it's a great thing that your name

60
00:02:07,429 --> 00:02:05,520
starts with an a because i sorted this

61
00:02:10,949 --> 00:02:07,439
by alphabetical

62
00:02:12,309 --> 00:02:10,959
i sorted this alphabetically by username

63
00:02:13,030 --> 00:02:12,319
and this will serve as an introduction

64
00:02:28,150 --> 00:02:13,040
to

65
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,670
you know

66
00:02:36,630 --> 00:02:33,670
there's a greek

67
00:02:39,270 --> 00:02:36,640
phrase called know thyself its origins

68
00:02:43,990 --> 00:02:41,670
john vervicky said

69
00:02:45,589 --> 00:02:44,000
to know thyself isn't what most people

70
00:02:47,910 --> 00:02:45,599
in the western world thinks it means to

71
00:02:50,229 --> 00:02:47,920
know thyself which we think it means

72
00:02:51,270 --> 00:02:50,239
let's have a scrapbook and post our

73
00:02:52,949 --> 00:02:51,280
memories

74
00:02:55,270 --> 00:02:52,959
that's not what it means it means to

75
00:02:56,309 --> 00:02:55,280
under to understand the operating system

76
00:02:57,430 --> 00:02:56,319
by which you

77
00:02:59,910 --> 00:02:57,440
run

78
00:03:01,670 --> 00:02:59,920
and i don't i don't know mine i'm

79
00:03:04,949 --> 00:03:01,680
tempted to give an itemized biography

80
00:03:07,190 --> 00:03:04,959
i'm tempted to state my ethnicity and my

81
00:03:10,309 --> 00:03:07,200
job and so on but i don't think that

82
00:03:11,910 --> 00:03:10,319
is what i should identify with and i'm

83
00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:11,920
wary of saying

84
00:03:16,550 --> 00:03:14,560
i am so-and-so because unconsciously

85
00:03:18,630 --> 00:03:16,560
i'll identify with it and that's part of

86
00:03:20,390 --> 00:03:18,640
my issue with the whole

87
00:03:22,149 --> 00:03:20,400
political discourse right now is that

88
00:03:23,350 --> 00:03:22,159
people tend to be identifying with

89
00:03:25,509 --> 00:03:23,360
aspects of themselves that they

90
00:03:27,830 --> 00:03:25,519
shouldn't see as a paramount part of

91
00:03:29,589 --> 00:03:27,840
their personality so as for who am i man

92
00:03:31,350 --> 00:03:29,599
like i'm i don't know and i'm figuring

93
00:03:32,949 --> 00:03:31,360
that out sorry akash what is your

94
00:03:35,110 --> 00:03:32,959
science background it's math and physics

95
00:03:36,550 --> 00:03:35,120
particularly something called

96
00:03:38,710 --> 00:03:36,560
high energy physics which is more in the

97
00:03:40,869 --> 00:03:38,720
theoretical end i'm not concerned i'm

98
00:03:42,390 --> 00:03:40,879
wholly unconcerned with the practical

99
00:03:43,910 --> 00:03:42,400
end of physics

100
00:03:45,990 --> 00:03:43,920
i even told nathan miravold i'm more

101
00:03:48,470 --> 00:03:46,000
comfortable with fibrobundles than i am

102
00:03:52,149 --> 00:03:48,480
with bernoulli's equation

103
00:03:55,110 --> 00:03:53,350
i'm concerned with something called

104
00:03:56,630 --> 00:03:55,120
general relativity and quantum field

105
00:03:58,830 --> 00:03:56,640
theory and merging them now some people

106
00:04:01,750 --> 00:03:58,840
think you'll hear this spout it off

107
00:04:02,789 --> 00:04:01,760
plenty that quantum field theory people

108
00:04:04,149 --> 00:04:02,799
will say quantum mechanics but it's

109
00:04:05,990 --> 00:04:04,159
technically quantum field theory and

110
00:04:06,949 --> 00:04:06,000
general relativity can't be merged they

111
00:04:08,070 --> 00:04:06,959
can

112
00:04:11,750 --> 00:04:08,080
easily

113
00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:11,760
just in high energies that you have

114
00:04:14,390 --> 00:04:13,280
problems so i'm interested in the high

115
00:04:17,189 --> 00:04:14,400
energy or

116
00:04:18,949 --> 00:04:17,199
in other words low

117
00:04:21,110 --> 00:04:18,959
distance because high energy means low

118
00:04:24,790 --> 00:04:21,120
distance

119
00:04:26,310 --> 00:04:24,800
of general general relativity and

120
00:04:27,830 --> 00:04:26,320
quantum mechanics

121
00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:27,840
when and why did i start my youtube

122
00:04:31,590 --> 00:04:28,800
channel

123
00:04:34,790 --> 00:04:31,600
well when and why when depends on what

124
00:04:36,710 --> 00:04:34,800
constitutes this youtube channel so

125
00:04:38,150 --> 00:04:36,720
in many ways it could be with the gnome

126
00:04:39,270 --> 00:04:38,160
interview so that's about a year and a

127
00:04:40,870 --> 00:04:39,280
half ago

128
00:04:42,710 --> 00:04:40,880
in many ways my channel started with

129
00:04:44,629 --> 00:04:42,720
brian keating which is about 10 months

130
00:04:45,590 --> 00:04:44,639
ago brian keating was the first

131
00:04:47,110 --> 00:04:45,600
interview that i did that was

132
00:04:49,830 --> 00:04:47,120
non-political that was just about math

133
00:04:51,189 --> 00:04:49,840
and physics because at the time i was

134
00:04:52,950 --> 00:04:51,199
i started this channel called better

135
00:04:54,310 --> 00:04:52,960
left unsaid for a film which is

136
00:04:56,469 --> 00:04:54,320
releasing tomorrow by the way this is

137
00:04:58,070 --> 00:04:56,479
promotion for it

138
00:04:59,830 --> 00:04:58,080
i have a film that i directed called

139
00:05:01,830 --> 00:04:59,840
better left unsaid a documentary about

140
00:05:04,150 --> 00:05:01,840
when does the political left to go too

141
00:05:05,749 --> 00:05:04,160
far and it has nothing to do with me

142
00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:05,759
accepting the right even though people

143
00:05:09,430 --> 00:05:07,360
see the absence of

144
00:05:13,110 --> 00:05:09,440
of the right the quote unquote political

145
00:05:16,230 --> 00:05:14,550
admitting that they're correct in some

146
00:05:17,430 --> 00:05:16,240
manner that's not the case in fact if

147
00:05:19,350 --> 00:05:17,440
you watch the film you'll see that i

148
00:05:20,550 --> 00:05:19,360
talk about the extreme right as well as

149
00:05:22,390 --> 00:05:20,560
the extreme left

150
00:05:24,150 --> 00:05:22,400
this channel was interviews for that and

151
00:05:25,590 --> 00:05:24,160
then i pivoted because i thought well

152
00:05:27,189 --> 00:05:25,600
now that the film is done which the film

153
00:05:28,469 --> 00:05:27,199
has been done for almost a year why not

154
00:05:29,670 --> 00:05:28,479
go back to my

155
00:05:30,950 --> 00:05:29,680
original

156
00:05:32,950 --> 00:05:30,960
interest of

157
00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:32,960
math and physics

158
00:05:36,870 --> 00:05:34,720
so i did with brian keating and brian

159
00:05:39,110 --> 00:05:36,880
keating has a great channel a channel is

160
00:05:40,790 --> 00:05:39,120
extremely similar to mine so i curse him

161
00:05:42,390 --> 00:05:40,800
for that but it's great because we have

162
00:05:44,390 --> 00:05:42,400
a revolving door of guests if you like

163
00:05:46,390 --> 00:05:44,400
his guests you like mine and vice versa

164
00:05:48,230 --> 00:05:46,400
i'll leave his descript i'll leave his

165
00:05:49,909 --> 00:05:48,240
channel in the description you should

166
00:05:51,430 --> 00:05:49,919
subscribe to it if you like this you'll

167
00:05:54,629 --> 00:05:51,440
most likely like brian keating's perhaps

168
00:05:57,909 --> 00:05:56,150
so in some ways channel started one and

169
00:06:00,070 --> 00:05:57,919
a half years ago with noam or 10 months

170
00:06:02,629 --> 00:06:00,080
ago with brian keating but in another

171
00:06:04,629 --> 00:06:02,639
way the channel truly started

172
00:06:06,550 --> 00:06:04,639
eight months ago or nine months ago with

173
00:06:08,710 --> 00:06:06,560
donald hoffman once i interviewed donald

174
00:06:10,230 --> 00:06:08,720
hoffman it was almost as if toe or

175
00:06:12,070 --> 00:06:10,240
theories of everything became its own

176
00:06:14,870 --> 00:06:12,080
genre some people in the audience say

177
00:06:15,909 --> 00:06:14,880
that there's no channel like it

178
00:06:17,110 --> 00:06:15,919
and

179
00:06:18,309 --> 00:06:17,120
while that's flattering i don't know how

180
00:06:19,590 --> 00:06:18,319
much of that is true i hope it's true

181
00:06:21,510 --> 00:06:19,600
that's pretty cool if it's true i don't

182
00:06:22,870 --> 00:06:21,520
see myself as having a particularly

183
00:06:24,629 --> 00:06:22,880
different interview style other than

184
00:06:26,230 --> 00:06:24,639
going into some of the abstruse

185
00:06:28,550 --> 00:06:26,240
mechanics but other than that i don't

186
00:06:32,070 --> 00:06:28,560
see it as particularly inventive or

187
00:06:40,790 --> 00:06:34,150
what are my aims and my dreams okay aims

188
00:06:43,830 --> 00:06:42,309
well

189
00:06:45,430 --> 00:06:43,840
by the way if you see me speak with

190
00:06:46,710 --> 00:06:45,440
haste or rapidity it's because i am

191
00:06:49,589 --> 00:06:46,720
trying to get through this fairly

192
00:06:51,029 --> 00:06:49,599
quickly

193
00:06:52,870 --> 00:06:51,039
my dreams

194
00:06:54,469 --> 00:06:52,880
my aims at least with this channel and

195
00:06:55,909 --> 00:06:54,479
at least with the next few years of my

196
00:06:58,070 --> 00:06:55,919
life is to clarify my thinking and

197
00:06:59,909 --> 00:06:58,080
develop what's called a veltan shaoong

198
00:07:01,749 --> 00:06:59,919
it's a german word which means an

199
00:07:03,029 --> 00:07:01,759
all-encompassing worldview or framework

200
00:07:05,110 --> 00:07:03,039
through which to interpret the world

201
00:07:06,629 --> 00:07:05,120
it's it's to call it a worldview is to

202
00:07:07,909 --> 00:07:06,639
minimize it

203
00:07:09,350 --> 00:07:07,919
now you by the way you can think of a

204
00:07:12,870 --> 00:07:09,360
veltan xiaowung as a theory of

205
00:07:17,830 --> 00:07:15,350
not in the physics sense though it does

206
00:07:19,510 --> 00:07:17,840
include the physics sense for me veltan

207
00:07:21,510 --> 00:07:19,520
xiaowung is the word

208
00:07:23,110 --> 00:07:21,520
velt if you ever hear the word v or the

209
00:07:28,870 --> 00:07:23,120
letter v

210
00:07:31,990 --> 00:07:30,629
the other aim for this channel to answer

211
00:07:34,390 --> 00:07:32,000
akash's question i'm only on question

212
00:07:36,150 --> 00:07:34,400
number one to answer akasha's question

213
00:07:38,710 --> 00:07:36,160
is that there

214
00:07:40,309 --> 00:07:38,720
is a part of me that thinks

215
00:07:42,390 --> 00:07:40,319
coming up with a theory of everything

216
00:07:46,070 --> 00:07:42,400
the way it's traditionally done is with

217
00:07:46,790 --> 00:07:46,080
private practice of erudite individuals

218
00:07:48,070 --> 00:07:46,800
in

219
00:07:50,869 --> 00:07:48,080
academia

220
00:07:52,710 --> 00:07:50,879
and i'm unsure if innovation is to be

221
00:07:53,909 --> 00:07:52,720
found there anymore

222
00:07:56,230 --> 00:07:53,919
that's false

223
00:07:57,830 --> 00:07:56,240
there's plenty of innovation coming from

224
00:07:59,510 --> 00:07:57,840
the universities especially in the stem

225
00:08:00,869 --> 00:07:59,520
fields what i mean is

226
00:08:02,790 --> 00:08:00,879
i think that there's

227
00:08:03,749 --> 00:08:02,800
vast swathes

228
00:08:05,830 --> 00:08:03,759
missing

229
00:08:07,270 --> 00:08:05,840
from our

230
00:08:08,550 --> 00:08:07,280
current theories of everything and i

231
00:08:10,869 --> 00:08:08,560
think that it's a

232
00:08:12,950 --> 00:08:10,879
i'm hoping that what i can do is make

233
00:08:15,909 --> 00:08:12,960
this a community effort that people from

234
00:08:17,589 --> 00:08:15,919
the outside can watch and contribute

235
00:08:19,029 --> 00:08:17,599
who are who didn't necessarily have the

236
00:08:20,790 --> 00:08:19,039
chance to go to university or aren't

237
00:08:22,469 --> 00:08:20,800
trained mathematically

238
00:08:23,589 --> 00:08:22,479
and collectively sometimes though i

239
00:08:25,110 --> 00:08:23,599
despise

240
00:08:26,950 --> 00:08:25,120
the word collectively because of how

241
00:08:28,950 --> 00:08:26,960
it's been co-opted but collectively we

242
00:08:30,550 --> 00:08:28,960
can come up with

243
00:08:32,310 --> 00:08:30,560
or at least advance a theory of

244
00:08:35,829 --> 00:08:32,320
everything so that's a goal of this

245
00:08:38,389 --> 00:08:35,839
channel that's a dream a dream of mine

246
00:08:39,990 --> 00:08:38,399
all right let's get to the next one

247
00:08:42,070 --> 00:08:40,000
account number one says what are your

248
00:08:43,670 --> 00:08:42,080
thoughts on rupert spira advice

249
00:08:45,910 --> 00:08:43,680
invitevent

250
00:08:47,590 --> 00:08:45,920
vedanta and thanks for making such an

251
00:08:49,350 --> 00:08:47,600
awesome podcast now

252
00:08:50,710 --> 00:08:49,360
account number one you can see by the

253
00:08:51,910 --> 00:08:50,720
fact that i'm struggling to pronounce

254
00:08:53,750 --> 00:08:51,920
vedanta

255
00:08:55,829 --> 00:08:53,760
that i'm unfamiliar with it i know a

256
00:08:57,670 --> 00:08:55,839
tiny amount like a modicum about it and

257
00:08:59,509 --> 00:08:57,680
i know a modicum about rupert spira

258
00:09:01,269 --> 00:08:59,519
though i do have an interview with him

259
00:09:03,110 --> 00:09:01,279
booked june

260
00:09:05,590 --> 00:09:03,120
15th or so which means it'll go online

261
00:09:06,949 --> 00:09:05,600
june at the end of june

262
00:09:08,550 --> 00:09:06,959
oh they also say thank you for making

263
00:09:12,949 --> 00:09:08,560
such an awesome podcast i don't like to

264
00:09:15,030 --> 00:09:12,959
read the plaudits but i'll do so because

265
00:09:16,230 --> 00:09:15,040
it's part of the question and it also

266
00:09:18,150 --> 00:09:16,240
it's endearing

267
00:09:20,630 --> 00:09:18,160
thank you account number one

268
00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:20,640
account number one has another question

269
00:09:25,829 --> 00:09:22,800
what or how do you think about abstract

270
00:09:28,070 --> 00:09:25,839
mathematical structures philosophically

271
00:09:29,190 --> 00:09:28,080
okay i'm not quite sure i understand

272
00:09:30,310 --> 00:09:29,200
what you mean when you say how do i

273
00:09:32,389 --> 00:09:30,320
think of them

274
00:09:34,630 --> 00:09:32,399
philosophically

275
00:09:39,509 --> 00:09:34,640
i imagine what you mean is

276
00:09:42,949 --> 00:09:40,710
that's all i can think of unless what

277
00:09:44,710 --> 00:09:42,959
you mean is am i algebraic or am i

278
00:09:47,030 --> 00:09:44,720
analytical or geometrical or visual i'd

279
00:09:48,150 --> 00:09:47,040
say i'm minorly visual and a majorly

280
00:09:50,710 --> 00:09:48,160
algebraic

281
00:09:51,750 --> 00:09:50,720
and majorly conceptual so that means

282
00:09:52,710 --> 00:09:51,760
that

283
00:09:53,910 --> 00:09:52,720
i don't know how to describe the

284
00:09:56,070 --> 00:09:53,920
conceptual one because i haven't heard

285
00:09:58,630 --> 00:09:56,080
many people talk about it it's more like

286
00:10:01,829 --> 00:09:58,640
i think in terms of concepts that are

287
00:10:02,829 --> 00:10:01,839
nebulous or nubilis and then they relate

288
00:10:05,829 --> 00:10:02,839
as for

289
00:10:08,550 --> 00:10:05,839
platonism i don't see how mathematical

290
00:10:10,870 --> 00:10:08,560
truths can be invented i don't see it as

291
00:10:14,389 --> 00:10:10,880
being dependent on us though lee smolin

292
00:10:16,150 --> 00:10:14,399
makes a case that they're time dependent

293
00:10:17,670 --> 00:10:16,160
this means that i'm

294
00:10:20,550 --> 00:10:17,680
i'm not sure the answer is i'm not sure

295
00:10:22,069 --> 00:10:20,560
and i'm tilted toward platonism

296
00:10:24,150 --> 00:10:22,079
you can think of it as i'm platonically

297
00:10:25,430 --> 00:10:24,160
dating platonism this comes from account

298
00:10:27,030 --> 00:10:25,440
number two

299
00:10:28,949 --> 00:10:27,040
kurt have you considered getting douglas

300
00:10:33,670 --> 00:10:28,959
hofstetter on the show the answer is

301
00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:36,150
alex broman says what's the role that i

302
00:10:38,949 --> 00:10:37,680
see psychedelics having in our society

303
00:10:42,230 --> 00:10:38,959
for the next 20 years and then he says

304
00:10:46,870 --> 00:10:43,910
medically it seems to be efficacious it

305
00:10:47,990 --> 00:10:46,880
seems to be more so than traditional

306
00:10:50,630 --> 00:10:48,000
medications

307
00:10:57,350 --> 00:10:53,509
as for individuals i hope

308
00:11:05,190 --> 00:10:59,430
it's it's

309
00:11:07,829 --> 00:11:06,470
they it's

310
00:11:09,509 --> 00:11:07,839
they can be

311
00:11:14,870 --> 00:11:09,519
world shattering let's say that and that

312
00:11:19,430 --> 00:11:17,350
alexander 96 says you seem to be a gamer

313
00:11:21,670 --> 00:11:19,440
at least you've mentioned excitedly

314
00:11:24,230 --> 00:11:21,680
games when talking to other people so

315
00:11:25,509 --> 00:11:24,240
what games do you like what games have

316
00:11:27,350 --> 00:11:25,519
you played in the past and any thoughts

317
00:11:29,670 --> 00:11:27,360
on the value of video games

318
00:11:31,190 --> 00:11:29,680
personally i'm certain that dark souls a

319
00:11:32,870 --> 00:11:31,200
pretty challenging game if you don't

320
00:11:33,750 --> 00:11:32,880
know it has strongly conditioned me to

321
00:11:36,230 --> 00:11:33,760
enjoy

322
00:11:38,150 --> 00:11:36,240
more difficult challenges okay so this

323
00:11:40,150 --> 00:11:38,160
person is extremely perceptive

324
00:11:42,230 --> 00:11:40,160
alexander

325
00:11:44,310 --> 00:11:42,240
i love dark souls i love demon souls i

326
00:11:46,389 --> 00:11:44,320
love from software games in general i

327
00:11:48,790 --> 00:11:46,399
love fallout i love single-player wide

328
00:11:50,629 --> 00:11:48,800
open sprawling vistas and

329
00:11:53,509 --> 00:11:50,639
missions and rpgs i love those i love

330
00:11:54,829 --> 00:11:53,519
those two bits i i'm extremely looking

331
00:11:57,829 --> 00:11:54,839
forward to playing this game called

332
00:12:00,629 --> 00:11:57,839
disco eliseum or ellis iom

333
00:12:02,550 --> 00:12:00,639
elysium i believe disco elysium

334
00:12:05,509 --> 00:12:02,560
though i

335
00:12:07,190 --> 00:12:05,519
i played it for about an hour

336
00:12:07,990 --> 00:12:07,200
i don't get time to play video games man

337
00:12:10,310 --> 00:12:08,000
i'm just

338
00:12:12,870 --> 00:12:10,320
studying for this podcast almost all the

339
00:12:16,710 --> 00:12:14,629
i wish i had more time to play because i

340
00:12:20,790 --> 00:12:16,720
love playing video games

341
00:12:24,310 --> 00:12:22,870
although i do like some mindless games

342
00:12:26,310 --> 00:12:24,320
games that i could listen to a podcast

343
00:12:28,230 --> 00:12:26,320
or do some research that just require

344
00:12:30,790 --> 00:12:28,240
auditory input

345
00:12:32,150 --> 00:12:30,800
while i play

346
00:12:33,430 --> 00:12:32,160
but i don't like them in the sense that

347
00:12:35,190 --> 00:12:33,440
i enjoy playing those games it's more

348
00:12:36,710 --> 00:12:35,200
like okay now i get to listen to this

349
00:12:39,750 --> 00:12:36,720
book that i have to read

350
00:12:41,670 --> 00:12:39,760
or research this person and at least i

351
00:12:43,990 --> 00:12:41,680
can play a video game maybe get a trophy

352
00:12:45,910 --> 00:12:44,000
or two at the same time disco eliseum

353
00:12:48,389 --> 00:12:45,920
there seems to be elements of one

354
00:12:51,110 --> 00:12:48,399
psychological state speaking to oneself

355
00:12:52,949 --> 00:12:51,120
and that's alarming to me

356
00:12:54,389 --> 00:12:52,959
i won't rehash why you can watch the ian

357
00:12:56,550 --> 00:12:54,399
mcgillcrest video

358
00:12:58,310 --> 00:12:56,560
to find out why

359
00:13:00,310 --> 00:12:58,320
i just hope it doesn't induce something

360
00:13:01,750 --> 00:13:00,320
like psychosis

361
00:13:03,910 --> 00:13:01,760
i don't know if i can handle that game

362
00:13:04,949 --> 00:13:03,920
metal gear solid i love the series metal

363
00:13:08,470 --> 00:13:04,959
gear solid

364
00:13:11,430 --> 00:13:08,480
extremely disappointed i think everyone

365
00:13:13,030 --> 00:13:11,440
was the gameplay in it is great but the

366
00:13:14,870 --> 00:13:13,040
it's not what i was looking for in a

367
00:13:18,150 --> 00:13:14,880
hideo kojima game

368
00:13:19,990 --> 00:13:18,160
i love indie games

369
00:13:22,790 --> 00:13:20,000
indie games that play with mechanisms

370
00:13:24,790 --> 00:13:22,800
sorry mechanics gameplay mechanics

371
00:13:26,550 --> 00:13:24,800
inventively

372
00:13:28,870 --> 00:13:26,560
i'm one of those rare people that find

373
00:13:30,069 --> 00:13:28,880
metal gear solid 4 to be peerless i

374
00:13:33,430 --> 00:13:30,079
actually think it's the best of all the

375
00:13:35,430 --> 00:13:33,440
metal gear solids even though

376
00:13:36,389 --> 00:13:35,440
even though it's lacking in terms of

377
00:13:38,790 --> 00:13:36,399
the

378
00:13:40,870 --> 00:13:38,800
intricacies of metal gear solid three

379
00:13:42,389 --> 00:13:40,880
in terms of fan service it was wonderful

380
00:13:44,710 --> 00:13:42,399
if you're a fan of metal gear solid from

381
00:13:46,470 --> 00:13:44,720
one two three you're

382
00:13:48,069 --> 00:13:46,480
i don't know how you can't love metal

383
00:13:49,990 --> 00:13:48,079
gear solid 4.

384
00:13:51,509 --> 00:13:50,000
someone said rebecca says why am i

385
00:13:55,430 --> 00:13:51,519
wasting my life with video games instead

386
00:13:57,189 --> 00:13:55,440
of experiencing the earth well that

387
00:13:59,189 --> 00:13:57,199
one can say why are you telling stories

388
00:14:00,710 --> 00:13:59,199
instead of experiencing the earth in

389
00:14:03,350 --> 00:14:00,720
some way the stories inform how you

390
00:14:07,430 --> 00:14:03,360
experience the earth and in some ways

391
00:14:08,710 --> 00:14:07,440
a video game is a more interactive story

392
00:14:11,110 --> 00:14:08,720
it depends on if you're using it to

393
00:14:12,470 --> 00:14:11,120
escape the earth

394
00:14:15,430 --> 00:14:12,480
and also video games are part of the

395
00:14:17,350 --> 00:14:15,440
earth where am i from daniela daniela

396
00:14:19,110 --> 00:14:17,360
wants to know i'm from trinidad i

397
00:14:20,389 --> 00:14:19,120
believe someone asks that

398
00:14:22,230 --> 00:14:20,399
later

399
00:14:24,069 --> 00:14:22,240
i also have an idea for video game which

400
00:14:25,829 --> 00:14:24,079
at some point

401
00:14:27,910 --> 00:14:25,839
because i don't like

402
00:14:28,870 --> 00:14:27,920
these games that have speech checks and

403
00:14:30,710 --> 00:14:28,880
then

404
00:14:32,150 --> 00:14:30,720
sneaking options or kill options those

405
00:14:33,750 --> 00:14:32,160
are just three and then they think well

406
00:14:34,949 --> 00:14:33,760
look i've spanned the gamut of all you

407
00:14:37,670 --> 00:14:34,959
can do with the video game look how

408
00:14:38,710 --> 00:14:37,680
wonderful in options my rpg is i don't

409
00:14:40,550 --> 00:14:38,720
think that's

410
00:14:42,230 --> 00:14:40,560
all there is i like more than that i

411
00:14:44,550 --> 00:14:42,240
have an idea but i may have to lay it to

412
00:14:48,710 --> 00:14:44,560
the side along with the multiplicity of

413
00:14:50,629 --> 00:14:48,720
other forlorn ideas of mine amidu camara

414
00:14:53,110 --> 00:14:50,639
says what ism of consciousness do i lean

415
00:14:55,910 --> 00:14:53,120
most toward

416
00:14:57,670 --> 00:14:55,920
and what are my thoughts on the bizarre

417
00:15:00,230 --> 00:14:57,680
phenomenon of

418
00:15:02,550 --> 00:15:00,240
alien abductions well okay as for the

419
00:15:05,350 --> 00:15:02,560
ism that i lean toward

420
00:15:07,509 --> 00:15:05,360
i would say none yet

421
00:15:08,870 --> 00:15:07,519
as for alien abductions i don't know

422
00:15:10,710 --> 00:15:08,880
what to make of it i don't think that

423
00:15:12,470 --> 00:15:10,720
everyone who

424
00:15:15,750 --> 00:15:12,480
claims that they've been abducted are

425
00:15:17,110 --> 00:15:15,760
asinine or lying

426
00:15:19,430 --> 00:15:17,120
i also don't think the same about

427
00:15:20,310 --> 00:15:19,440
bigfoot and i would like i would love to

428
00:15:21,670 --> 00:15:20,320
get

429
00:15:23,269 --> 00:15:21,680
less drought on the podcast i keep

430
00:15:25,030 --> 00:15:23,279
reaching out to his

431
00:15:26,790 --> 00:15:25,040
people and they keep putting me off they

432
00:15:28,470 --> 00:15:26,800
keep saying six months from now or five

433
00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:28,480
months from now

434
00:15:31,269 --> 00:15:29,920
hopefully at some point lestrade will

435
00:15:33,670 --> 00:15:31,279
come on the podcast i would love to talk

436
00:15:35,910 --> 00:15:33,680
to him that's survivorman for those of

437
00:15:38,310 --> 00:15:35,920
you who are unacquainted

438
00:15:40,550 --> 00:15:38,320
i do have an intimation as to why ufos

439
00:15:41,990 --> 00:15:40,560
and bigfoot and other phenomenon might

440
00:15:43,910 --> 00:15:42,000
exist

441
00:15:46,150 --> 00:15:43,920
as well as an explanation for why

442
00:15:49,829 --> 00:15:46,160
they're mysterious

443
00:15:51,590 --> 00:15:49,839
but it may be imbecilic so i don't

444
00:15:54,389 --> 00:15:51,600
i won't state it because it's not well

445
00:15:56,710 --> 00:15:54,399
formed

446
00:15:58,389 --> 00:15:56,720
it's just that i don't i don't know it i

447
00:16:02,310 --> 00:15:58,399
find it odd that bigfoot hasn't been

448
00:16:07,269 --> 00:16:04,470
some people will claim it has been okay

449
00:16:09,189 --> 00:16:07,279
anna lucas anna luco lukomski anna

450
00:16:11,910 --> 00:16:09,199
lakomsky says

451
00:16:13,509 --> 00:16:11,920
by the way if i'm appearing tired i am

452
00:16:15,269 --> 00:16:13,519
for the past couple nights i haven't

453
00:16:16,389 --> 00:16:15,279
gotten much sleep groggy so i'm in the

454
00:16:18,949 --> 00:16:16,399
midst of that

455
00:16:20,710 --> 00:16:18,959
okay let's see

456
00:16:23,430 --> 00:16:20,720
anna lukomski says i would love to hear

457
00:16:25,350 --> 00:16:23,440
the story behind your podcast and how

458
00:16:27,430 --> 00:16:25,360
you became inspired to do a podcast on

459
00:16:28,710 --> 00:16:27,440
toes on theories of everything the

460
00:16:30,710 --> 00:16:28,720
practicalities of how you actually

461
00:16:32,710 --> 00:16:30,720
managed to get it going especially the

462
00:16:35,189 --> 00:16:32,720
story behind how you got your first

463
00:16:37,990 --> 00:16:35,199
guest i wonder if you knew how much that

464
00:16:40,389 --> 00:16:38,000
moment would change your world

465
00:16:44,310 --> 00:16:40,399
theories of everything

466
00:16:46,069 --> 00:16:44,320
channel was an evolution it started as

467
00:16:47,829 --> 00:16:46,079
blue that is better left unsaid i call

468
00:16:49,350 --> 00:16:47,839
it blue so if you ever ever hear me use

469
00:16:50,870 --> 00:16:49,360
the word blue i'm referring to better

470
00:16:53,189 --> 00:16:50,880
left unsaid which is a documentary i

471
00:16:54,629 --> 00:16:53,199
directed which is releasing tomorrow and

472
00:16:56,629 --> 00:16:54,639
again

473
00:16:58,430 --> 00:16:56,639
quick promotion if you want to buy it

474
00:17:00,069 --> 00:16:58,440
please get it from

475
00:17:02,350 --> 00:17:00,079
betterleftunsaidfilm.com don't buy it

476
00:17:03,749 --> 00:17:02,360
from itunes and so on because

477
00:17:05,669 --> 00:17:03,759
betterleftonsetfilm.com will have the

478
00:17:07,829 --> 00:17:05,679
director's version which is the much

479
00:17:10,549 --> 00:17:07,839
longer ponderous philosophical

480
00:17:12,309 --> 00:17:10,559
psychological version that

481
00:17:14,230 --> 00:17:12,319
contains elements the public won't

482
00:17:16,870 --> 00:17:14,240
necessarily like but if you're a fan of

483
00:17:19,029 --> 00:17:16,880
this channel you'll probably like

484
00:17:20,710 --> 00:17:19,039
and that one you get it for free on the

485
00:17:23,029 --> 00:17:20,720
better left unsaid film.com when you buy

486
00:17:24,390 --> 00:17:23,039
the regular version it just you get a

487
00:17:26,390 --> 00:17:24,400
choice do you want to watch the regular

488
00:17:31,830 --> 00:17:26,400
or the director's cut which is two hours

489
00:17:34,630 --> 00:17:33,110
as for

490
00:17:36,710 --> 00:17:34,640
the first guest it depends on what

491
00:17:38,470 --> 00:17:36,720
qualifies this channel the first guest

492
00:17:40,070 --> 00:17:38,480
in many ways was gnome or in many ways

493
00:17:42,070 --> 00:17:40,080
it was brian keating or in many ways it

494
00:17:43,669 --> 00:17:42,080
was donald hoffman

495
00:17:45,510 --> 00:17:43,679
now the hoffman interview was one that i

496
00:17:47,510 --> 00:17:45,520
had no idea would change me as much as

497
00:17:48,870 --> 00:17:47,520
it did not because of his theories per

498
00:17:50,470 --> 00:17:48,880
se but because

499
00:17:52,950 --> 00:17:50,480
it seems like as soon as i released that

500
00:17:55,830 --> 00:17:52,960
podcast it was as if toe theories of

501
00:17:56,710 --> 00:17:55,840
everything became his own genre

502
00:17:57,590 --> 00:17:56,720
and

503
00:17:59,990 --> 00:17:57,600
that

504
00:18:02,150 --> 00:18:00,000
was exciting

505
00:18:03,750 --> 00:18:02,160
because it was me talking to someone the

506
00:18:05,270 --> 00:18:03,760
way that i would like to talk to them

507
00:18:07,190 --> 00:18:05,280
instead of

508
00:18:10,789 --> 00:18:07,200
somewhat of a facade of an interviewer

509
00:18:13,750 --> 00:18:12,549
which characterized the previous

510
00:18:14,710 --> 00:18:13,760
interviews which i've now unlisted

511
00:18:15,990 --> 00:18:14,720
because i

512
00:18:18,390 --> 00:18:16,000
am embarrassed about them and they don't

513
00:18:19,830 --> 00:18:18,400
fit the theme of this channel so

514
00:18:22,150 --> 00:18:19,840
donald hoffman

515
00:18:23,029 --> 00:18:22,160
and the reception to it indicated to me

516
00:18:25,110 --> 00:18:23,039
that

517
00:18:28,190 --> 00:18:25,120
i was on an interesting past path and it

518
00:18:30,630 --> 00:18:28,200
spurred me on

519
00:18:32,630 --> 00:18:30,640
apostolos prel

520
00:18:34,070 --> 00:18:32,640
says

521
00:18:35,590 --> 00:18:34,080
do you have a facebook page for your

522
00:18:37,029 --> 00:18:35,600
youtube audience

523
00:18:38,549 --> 00:18:37,039
sorry do you have a facebook page for

524
00:18:39,909 --> 00:18:38,559
your youtube channel and i want to

525
00:18:41,590 --> 00:18:39,919
support you kurt so i don't have a

526
00:18:42,630 --> 00:18:41,600
facebook page not for this channel at

527
00:18:45,110 --> 00:18:42,640
least

528
00:18:47,430 --> 00:18:45,120
and if you want to support then

529
00:18:48,310 --> 00:18:47,440
please support on patreon

530
00:18:50,150 --> 00:18:48,320
it

531
00:18:54,789 --> 00:18:50,160
patreon genuinely helps each dollar

532
00:18:57,990 --> 00:18:56,070
it helps because it's completely

533
00:19:00,230 --> 00:18:58,000
voluntary it's

534
00:19:03,110 --> 00:19:00,240
someone voluntarily is giving me a

535
00:19:05,110 --> 00:19:03,120
dollar or 10 or whatever it may be per

536
00:19:07,110 --> 00:19:05,120
month

537
00:19:08,390 --> 00:19:07,120
continually

538
00:19:13,590 --> 00:19:08,400
it

539
00:19:15,430 --> 00:19:13,600
i tell my wife each time i get an email

540
00:19:16,870 --> 00:19:15,440
from a patron and i also personally

541
00:19:18,390 --> 00:19:16,880
email each patron they think that it's a

542
00:19:20,150 --> 00:19:18,400
form letter because they're usually

543
00:19:22,870 --> 00:19:20,160
surprised that

544
00:19:26,789 --> 00:19:22,880
they get a personal communication but

545
00:19:30,150 --> 00:19:26,799
i'm genuinely happy my wife and i

546
00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:32,150
it also serves the amount of patrons i

547
00:19:36,710 --> 00:19:34,559
have also serves as a

548
00:19:39,110 --> 00:19:36,720
metric of the positive response to this

549
00:19:42,870 --> 00:19:39,120
channel beyond the adulatory

550
00:19:44,310 --> 00:19:42,880
comments because some of these comments

551
00:19:45,270 --> 00:19:44,320
they're extremely flattering but at the

552
00:19:47,430 --> 00:19:45,280
same time

553
00:19:48,950 --> 00:19:47,440
i look at other channels i'm sure if

554
00:19:50,150 --> 00:19:48,960
anyone here is a content creator you've

555
00:19:51,990 --> 00:19:50,160
experienced this where someone says i

556
00:19:53,350 --> 00:19:52,000
love this this was the best podcast or

557
00:19:55,669 --> 00:19:53,360
this was the best video and then you

558
00:19:58,390 --> 00:19:55,679
watch some other video of a

559
00:20:02,149 --> 00:20:00,710
hitting a dog and then the dog

560
00:20:03,270 --> 00:20:02,159
being happy about it and then someone

561
00:20:05,350 --> 00:20:03,280
says this is the best video i've ever

562
00:20:07,270 --> 00:20:05,360
seen online and then you wonder okay i

563
00:20:09,510 --> 00:20:07,280
was happy about my comment at first but

564
00:20:12,390 --> 00:20:09,520
then

565
00:20:13,990 --> 00:20:12,400
that also gets the same attribution

566
00:20:16,549 --> 00:20:14,000
so there's a temporary ego boost i get

567
00:20:18,070 --> 00:20:16,559
but then a subsequent deflation of it

568
00:20:20,230 --> 00:20:18,080
however

569
00:20:21,830 --> 00:20:20,240
the patreon subscribers definitely

570
00:20:24,070 --> 00:20:21,840
indicate to me that someone's willing to

571
00:20:26,789 --> 00:20:24,080
say that this is something they see

572
00:20:28,950 --> 00:20:26,799
worth supporting a mission that they can

573
00:20:31,590 --> 00:20:28,960
believe in and they do with their with

574
00:20:37,270 --> 00:20:31,600
their dollar so i'm delighted and i find

575
00:20:40,230 --> 00:20:39,029
aspen french says i want i'm a fan of

576
00:20:41,669 --> 00:20:40,240
your content kurt but i'm also a

577
00:20:43,110 --> 00:20:41,679
feminist and i try to listen to the

578
00:20:45,190 --> 00:20:43,120
opposition and so on

579
00:20:46,870 --> 00:20:45,200
but this was on the janice fiamango

580
00:20:48,789 --> 00:20:46,880
interview

581
00:20:49,909 --> 00:20:48,799
but i was extremely frustrated by this

582
00:20:51,990 --> 00:20:49,919
discussion

583
00:20:53,990 --> 00:20:52,000
there's not

584
00:20:55,190 --> 00:20:54,000
well what i want to ask is

585
00:20:57,430 --> 00:20:55,200
would you consider a voice from the

586
00:20:58,950 --> 00:20:57,440
other side and answers absolutely i am

587
00:20:59,990 --> 00:20:58,960
actively looking for people who are on

588
00:21:02,310 --> 00:21:00,000
the more

589
00:21:04,950 --> 00:21:02,320
radical left end who espoused critical

590
00:21:07,270 --> 00:21:04,960
race theory and

591
00:21:08,630 --> 00:21:07,280
our black lives matter supporters and so

592
00:21:10,390 --> 00:21:08,640
on

593
00:21:12,070 --> 00:21:10,400
whatever you think of as the typical

594
00:21:13,590 --> 00:21:12,080
left extreme left-leaning whatever you

595
00:21:15,350 --> 00:21:13,600
want to call it i'm not disparaging it

596
00:21:17,430 --> 00:21:15,360
but those types of people i'm definitely

597
00:21:19,909 --> 00:21:17,440
looking for in fact for the documentary

598
00:21:22,070 --> 00:21:19,919
better left unsaid i reached out at

599
00:21:23,669 --> 00:21:22,080
least initially to way more people

600
00:21:26,310 --> 00:21:23,679
professors on the left than i did on the

601
00:21:28,549 --> 00:21:26,320
right and i got no after no after no

602
00:21:30,230 --> 00:21:28,559
after no after no

603
00:21:31,110 --> 00:21:30,240
it was only people who were on the

604
00:21:34,870 --> 00:21:31,120
center

605
00:21:36,549 --> 00:21:34,880
said yes to me but i'm looking for

606
00:21:38,549 --> 00:21:36,559
people i have a whole

607
00:21:40,230 --> 00:21:38,559
document of questions for

608
00:21:41,990 --> 00:21:40,240
hoping that someone eventually will come

609
00:21:44,710 --> 00:21:42,000
online and speak with me hopefully a

610
00:21:46,230 --> 00:21:44,720
professor i don't want just some postdoc

611
00:21:48,390 --> 00:21:46,240
or it could be a postdoc i don't want

612
00:21:50,630 --> 00:21:48,400
some undergrad or recent graduate to

613
00:21:52,630 --> 00:21:50,640
talk to me or just someone who says that

614
00:21:54,950 --> 00:21:52,640
i'm a trans person and you should talk

615
00:21:58,630 --> 00:21:54,960
to me well i would prefer a professor

616
00:22:01,430 --> 00:22:00,310
austin harper says do you believe in

617
00:22:03,270 --> 00:22:01,440
free will

618
00:22:06,470 --> 00:22:03,280
are aliens here god

619
00:22:07,909 --> 00:22:06,480
question mark is ego death real death

620
00:22:10,070 --> 00:22:07,919
what is the perfect form of government

621
00:22:11,590 --> 00:22:10,080
assuming there is one why does life have

622
00:22:13,350 --> 00:22:11,600
symmetry but physics is having issues

623
00:22:14,390 --> 00:22:13,360
with it

624
00:22:16,310 --> 00:22:14,400
do you think black holes have

625
00:22:18,789 --> 00:22:16,320
singularities what about pan psychism

626
00:22:20,070 --> 00:22:18,799
i've subbed since your sabine interviews

627
00:22:22,390 --> 00:22:20,080
that is the

628
00:22:23,990 --> 00:22:22,400
sabine hostenfelder interview

629
00:22:26,470 --> 00:22:24,000
so basically you're required to answer

630
00:22:28,070 --> 00:22:26,480
at least one of these questions okay do

631
00:22:29,669 --> 00:22:28,080
you believe in free will i'm not sure

632
00:22:31,750 --> 00:22:29,679
there are arguments for it and there are

633
00:22:33,430 --> 00:22:31,760
arguments against it and

634
00:22:35,110 --> 00:22:33,440
i don't know there's definitely the

635
00:22:37,190 --> 00:22:35,120
feeling that free will exists and

636
00:22:39,190 --> 00:22:37,200
there's definitely the feeling that your

637
00:22:40,710 --> 00:22:39,200
your feeling of free will is illusory

638
00:22:43,110 --> 00:22:40,720
that is during meditation or a

639
00:22:46,390 --> 00:22:43,120
psychedelic experience let's say or even

640
00:22:48,549 --> 00:22:46,400
a hypnagogic near dream state

641
00:22:51,669 --> 00:22:48,559
as for our aliens here i'm not sure as

642
00:22:52,710 --> 00:22:51,679
for god not sure as for his ego death

643
00:22:54,470 --> 00:22:52,720
real death

644
00:23:06,390 --> 00:22:54,480
that's a

645
00:23:07,909 --> 00:23:06,400
extremely terrifying question man i

646
00:23:09,510 --> 00:23:07,919
it's so it's a it's such a terrible

647
00:23:11,029 --> 00:23:09,520
question i i have to move on from that

648
00:23:12,630 --> 00:23:11,039
question

649
00:23:14,310 --> 00:23:12,640
what is what is the perfect form of

650
00:23:15,510 --> 00:23:14,320
government assuming there is one so it

651
00:23:17,270 --> 00:23:15,520
might be that there's none it might be

652
00:23:19,270 --> 00:23:17,280
god's government or it might be one

653
00:23:22,230 --> 00:23:19,280
that's dependent on on time or it might

654
00:23:23,750 --> 00:23:22,240
be one where you maximize

655
00:23:25,590 --> 00:23:23,760
voluntary choice but then you get into

656
00:23:28,070 --> 00:23:25,600
the issue of what constitutes voluntary

657
00:23:29,510 --> 00:23:28,080
choice is it positive freedom or is it

658
00:23:31,590 --> 00:23:29,520
negative freedom

659
00:23:34,950 --> 00:23:31,600
which means you get into the

660
00:23:37,110 --> 00:23:34,960
base of philosophy and i see that many

661
00:23:38,470 --> 00:23:37,120
of the arguments about capitalism versus

662
00:23:40,630 --> 00:23:38,480
socialism

663
00:23:42,870 --> 00:23:40,640
or communism in fact

664
00:23:44,230 --> 00:23:42,880
are arguments not about which political

665
00:23:45,750 --> 00:23:44,240
system is correct but which

666
00:23:47,830 --> 00:23:45,760
philosophical strain do we use to

667
00:23:49,510 --> 00:23:47,840
interpret freedom

668
00:23:50,390 --> 00:23:49,520
i see it as a debate between freedoms

669
00:23:51,590 --> 00:23:50,400
rather than

670
00:23:55,669 --> 00:23:51,600
political which means it's a

671
00:23:58,390 --> 00:23:57,029
as for it

672
00:23:59,669 --> 00:23:58,400
why does life have symmetries but

673
00:24:01,269 --> 00:23:59,679
physics doesn't i don't think physics

674
00:24:03,269 --> 00:24:01,279
has an issue with symmetries in fact i

675
00:24:05,590 --> 00:24:03,279
would say life has an issue with it

676
00:24:07,750 --> 00:24:05,600
so i don't i disregard the question do i

677
00:24:09,590 --> 00:24:07,760
think black holes have singularities i

678
00:24:12,950 --> 00:24:09,600
don't i don't know

679
00:24:15,110 --> 00:24:12,960
they may they may not pan psychism hmm

680
00:24:16,310 --> 00:24:15,120
pan psychism may be true maybe true in

681
00:24:19,269 --> 00:24:16,320
some strange way that we don't

682
00:24:21,269 --> 00:24:19,279
conceptualize currently

683
00:24:22,710 --> 00:24:21,279
now hopefully

684
00:24:24,789 --> 00:24:22,720
austin harper hopefully i've answered

685
00:24:27,510 --> 00:24:24,799
your question somewhat

686
00:24:34,149 --> 00:24:27,520
although i assume not copacetically

687
00:24:37,909 --> 00:24:35,990
i can't pronounce your last name

688
00:24:39,269 --> 00:24:37,919
it says what have you learned from the

689
00:24:40,710 --> 00:24:39,279
many brilliant people you have

690
00:24:42,710 --> 00:24:40,720
interviewed that has affected your

691
00:24:52,149 --> 00:24:42,720
day-to-day life and what are the

692
00:24:55,990 --> 00:24:54,149
each one each interview has influenced

693
00:24:56,789 --> 00:24:56,000
me

694
00:24:59,190 --> 00:24:56,799
though

695
00:25:01,669 --> 00:24:59,200
to say specifically how would require me

696
00:25:03,990 --> 00:25:01,679
to dredge the influence from the depths

697
00:25:06,950 --> 00:25:04,000
and often that requires sufficient

698
00:25:09,430 --> 00:25:06,960
reflection which i haven't been able to

699
00:25:12,789 --> 00:25:09,440
do at least not for this ama

700
00:25:26,149 --> 00:25:14,470
okay well that one at least recently is

701
00:25:30,470 --> 00:25:28,390
let's say

702
00:25:33,110 --> 00:25:30,480
well it's world view shattering that's

703
00:25:37,350 --> 00:25:33,120
for sure it has me second guessing

704
00:25:41,029 --> 00:25:39,029
and actions

705
00:25:44,950 --> 00:25:41,039
more so than usual which we're already

706
00:25:46,630 --> 00:25:44,960
at brobdingnaggy in proportions to use

707
00:25:51,350 --> 00:25:46,640
a word that i

708
00:25:54,870 --> 00:25:53,430
beerus attitude says after interviewing

709
00:25:56,390 --> 00:25:54,880
all these brilliant people and educating

710
00:25:58,789 --> 00:25:56,400
yourself on so many topics do you see

711
00:26:06,710 --> 00:25:58,799
the world clearly more clearly or are

712
00:26:09,669 --> 00:26:07,990
much more lost

713
00:26:11,269 --> 00:26:09,679
although simultaneously i do see the

714
00:26:13,510 --> 00:26:11,279
world

715
00:26:14,950 --> 00:26:13,520
more clearly now the way that i i've

716
00:26:17,029 --> 00:26:14,960
been thinking about this for a while and

717
00:26:20,230 --> 00:26:17,039
the best i could do is come up with an

718
00:26:25,110 --> 00:26:22,390
okay so the analogy looks like this

719
00:26:26,870 --> 00:26:25,120
imagine that you're a swimmer and you're

720
00:26:29,269 --> 00:26:26,880
you're you can't see the top you don't

721
00:26:30,549 --> 00:26:29,279
know where the surface is

722
00:26:32,789 --> 00:26:30,559
and you're aiming for the surface you

723
00:26:35,190 --> 00:26:32,799
want to get out

724
00:26:37,269 --> 00:26:35,200
you don't know how far below you are so

725
00:26:39,110 --> 00:26:37,279
you estimate you have some gut your you

726
00:26:42,470 --> 00:26:39,120
have some intuition you have you have a

727
00:26:44,310 --> 00:26:42,480
hunch and you say i think i'm 200 meters

728
00:26:46,070 --> 00:26:44,320
below the surface i think the surface is

729
00:26:47,430 --> 00:26:46,080
200 meters up let's say and you have a

730
00:26:49,430 --> 00:26:47,440
flashlight at the same time which can

731
00:26:50,830 --> 00:26:49,440
see

732
00:26:53,029 --> 00:26:50,840
50 meters

733
00:26:54,549 --> 00:26:53,039
ahead so that's like your clarity you

734
00:26:55,909 --> 00:26:54,559
can see a certain amount of head but

735
00:26:58,070 --> 00:26:55,919
then you also have an estimation as to

736
00:27:00,230 --> 00:26:58,080
how much farther along are you

737
00:27:02,149 --> 00:27:00,240
well i would say that

738
00:27:04,310 --> 00:27:02,159
what's happened with each interview i'm

739
00:27:06,470 --> 00:27:04,320
swimming upward so i'm making progress

740
00:27:11,029 --> 00:27:06,480
that is

741
00:27:15,669 --> 00:27:13,430
my estimation as to how far

742
00:27:17,269 --> 00:27:15,679
the surface is keeps increasing so

743
00:27:19,510 --> 00:27:17,279
whereas last year or two years ago it

744
00:27:22,310 --> 00:27:19,520
would have been 200 meters up now it's a

745
00:27:24,389 --> 00:27:22,320
kilometer up so a thousand meters up

746
00:27:26,070 --> 00:27:24,399
but my flashlight has also gotten more

747
00:27:27,750 --> 00:27:26,080
powerful so my flashlight can now see

748
00:27:29,269 --> 00:27:27,760
100 meters up so that's like my clarity

749
00:27:31,269 --> 00:27:29,279
has increased and i've seen that i've

750
00:27:32,950 --> 00:27:31,279
made some progress

751
00:27:34,870 --> 00:27:32,960
but at the same time i'm much farther

752
00:27:36,950 --> 00:27:34,880
along i mean sorry much i have much

753
00:27:39,110 --> 00:27:36,960
farther to go than i thought

754
00:27:40,230 --> 00:27:39,120
so it's a strange

755
00:27:42,710 --> 00:27:40,240
mix of

756
00:27:44,870 --> 00:27:42,720
both clarity and

757
00:27:48,230 --> 00:27:44,880
i wouldn't say confusion but

758
00:27:50,630 --> 00:27:48,240
but being lost boris martinez says i see

759
00:27:53,190 --> 00:27:50,640
you're a man with a talent for figures

760
00:27:55,510 --> 00:27:53,200
and i wonder what is your iq what is

761
00:27:57,669 --> 00:27:55,520
your age and net worth

762
00:27:59,430 --> 00:27:57,679
three simply yet meaningful numbers of

763
00:28:00,830 --> 00:27:59,440
course feel free to send me to hell with

764
00:28:03,990 --> 00:28:00,840
my impertinent

765
00:28:05,510 --> 00:28:04,000
questions okay for iq

766
00:28:11,990 --> 00:28:05,520
i

767
00:28:14,549 --> 00:28:12,000
weeks

768
00:28:15,269 --> 00:28:14,559
and i i did a gamut of tests

769
00:28:18,710 --> 00:28:15,279
the

770
00:28:22,950 --> 00:28:20,710
that i had most frequently was around

771
00:28:25,110 --> 00:28:22,960
the high 150s

772
00:28:26,870 --> 00:28:25,120
and the

773
00:28:28,870 --> 00:28:26,880
the lowest score that i achieved was in

774
00:28:32,389 --> 00:28:28,880
the high 120s and the highest score that

775
00:28:33,909 --> 00:28:32,399
i achieved was in the low 200s so

776
00:28:36,070 --> 00:28:33,919
take that

777
00:28:37,669 --> 00:28:36,080
for what it's worth it could be anywhere

778
00:28:41,510 --> 00:28:37,679
from 120

779
00:28:44,310 --> 00:28:41,520
high 120s to low 200 likely it's around

780
00:28:45,110 --> 00:28:44,320
or likely it was around the high 150s

781
00:28:45,909 --> 00:28:45,120
though

782
00:28:48,870 --> 00:28:45,919
it

783
00:28:50,789 --> 00:28:48,880
has drastically decreased because well

784
00:28:53,669 --> 00:28:50,799
turning to the next question

785
00:28:56,149 --> 00:28:53,679
my age is 32 turning 33

786
00:29:01,110 --> 00:28:56,159
and your iq

787
00:29:02,549 --> 00:29:01,120
steadily decreases from 18 to 24 onward

788
00:29:04,710 --> 00:29:02,559
and some of these iq tests were the

789
00:29:06,630 --> 00:29:04,720
ravens progressive matrices test so i do

790
00:29:08,549 --> 00:29:06,640
have some faith in them but at the same

791
00:29:11,110 --> 00:29:08,559
time they weren't official though i was

792
00:29:12,630 --> 00:29:11,120
officially tested by an adhd clinic

793
00:29:14,870 --> 00:29:12,640
because

794
00:29:17,029 --> 00:29:14,880
i was tested for adhd and i apparently

795
00:29:18,470 --> 00:29:17,039
do have it but first the way that this

796
00:29:20,789 --> 00:29:18,480
clinic works is they have to make sure

797
00:29:22,470 --> 00:29:20,799
that they separate people from

798
00:29:24,149 --> 00:29:22,480
those who can't

799
00:29:26,389 --> 00:29:24,159
stay focused because they're simply

800
00:29:28,549 --> 00:29:26,399
slow-minded let's say

801
00:29:30,710 --> 00:29:28,559
in other words having a low iq or those

802
00:29:31,990 --> 00:29:30,720
who have a functioning iq and can't

803
00:29:33,750 --> 00:29:32,000
focus and they need to make sure you're

804
00:29:35,750 --> 00:29:33,760
in that group before they diagnose you

805
00:29:37,430 --> 00:29:35,760
with adhd so they did a battery of

806
00:29:39,750 --> 00:29:37,440
cognitive tests for me and i remember

807
00:29:41,669 --> 00:29:39,760
that i either scored perfect or scored

808
00:29:43,990 --> 00:29:41,679
one away from perfect

809
00:29:46,389 --> 00:29:44,000
there were some verbal tests that is

810
00:29:48,149 --> 00:29:46,399
what is the definition of so-and-so word

811
00:29:50,389 --> 00:29:48,159
there were some

812
00:29:52,149 --> 00:29:50,399
mathematical tests now that should be a

813
00:29:53,510 --> 00:29:52,159
breeze for me because hopefully i'm

814
00:29:55,590 --> 00:29:53,520
trained mathematically i mean i should

815
00:29:57,590 --> 00:29:55,600
be if i got a degree in it

816
00:29:59,990 --> 00:29:57,600
and

817
00:30:01,350 --> 00:30:00,000
there was some physical manipulation

818
00:30:03,029 --> 00:30:01,360
puzzles

819
00:30:04,310 --> 00:30:03,039
i remember

820
00:30:06,389 --> 00:30:04,320
and i think

821
00:30:08,310 --> 00:30:06,399
that one i didn't i either scored

822
00:30:10,070 --> 00:30:08,320
correctly at the last second like there

823
00:30:11,830 --> 00:30:10,080
was a timer or

824
00:30:14,310 --> 00:30:11,840
i just missed it by one second i don't

825
00:30:16,389 --> 00:30:14,320
recall which one but either way

826
00:30:18,230 --> 00:30:16,399
as for my net worth my net worth is

827
00:30:20,630 --> 00:30:18,240
disappointing this guy said that

828
00:30:22,549 --> 00:30:20,640
i asked him

829
00:30:24,470 --> 00:30:22,559
i believe his name is boris boris martin

830
00:30:26,149 --> 00:30:24,480
is boris what do you think my net worth

831
00:30:27,590 --> 00:30:26,159
is before i answer this question on an

832
00:30:29,269 --> 00:30:27,600
ama and he said

833
00:30:32,710 --> 00:30:29,279
he thinks it's a half a million usd to

834
00:30:33,909 --> 00:30:32,720
1.5 million usd and like

835
00:30:34,789 --> 00:30:33,919
that would be

836
00:30:36,389 --> 00:30:34,799
well

837
00:30:37,430 --> 00:30:36,399
it's much much much less in many ways

838
00:30:39,190 --> 00:30:37,440
what i'm doing is extremely

839
00:30:40,950 --> 00:30:39,200
irresponsible by putting youtube videos

840
00:30:42,870 --> 00:30:40,960
out because i should be

841
00:30:44,230 --> 00:30:42,880
working toward building my net worth

842
00:30:46,230 --> 00:30:44,240
especially considering i'm thinking of

843
00:30:48,070 --> 00:30:46,240
having a kid at some point but my net

844
00:30:49,590 --> 00:30:48,080
worth is

845
00:30:51,590 --> 00:30:49,600
less than a tenth of what he thinks it

846
00:30:54,549 --> 00:30:51,600
is

847
00:30:57,990 --> 00:30:55,990
as for

848
00:31:00,470 --> 00:30:58,000
the earnings of this podcast per month

849
00:31:02,549 --> 00:31:00,480
it's something like one thousand dollars

850
00:31:04,549 --> 00:31:02,559
and that seems like

851
00:31:06,470 --> 00:31:04,559
plenty to some people and nothing to

852
00:31:07,990 --> 00:31:06,480
others it depends on where you live

853
00:31:10,710 --> 00:31:08,000
where i live it's almost nothing because

854
00:31:12,789 --> 00:31:10,720
the rent is already two thousand dollars

855
00:31:14,149 --> 00:31:12,799
per month

856
00:31:15,669 --> 00:31:14,159
and not and the one thousand dollars

857
00:31:17,669 --> 00:31:15,679
doesn't even go directly toward me it

858
00:31:19,590 --> 00:31:17,679
goes toward indie film theo which is a

859
00:31:21,110 --> 00:31:19,600
company that i have as a non-profit

860
00:31:22,950 --> 00:31:21,120
because technically we're incubating

861
00:31:25,269 --> 00:31:22,960
this theories of everything channel as

862
00:31:27,269 --> 00:31:25,279
well as my documentary and so on so what

863
00:31:28,870 --> 00:31:27,279
i'm doing is extremely irresponsible but

864
00:31:31,430 --> 00:31:28,880
i see the

865
00:31:33,190 --> 00:31:31,440
the growth monetary growth and

866
00:31:35,590 --> 00:31:33,200
i also believe wholeheartedly in what

867
00:31:36,630 --> 00:31:35,600
i'm doing and i'm much more

868
00:31:38,470 --> 00:31:36,640
fulfilled

869
00:31:43,990 --> 00:31:38,480
and

870
00:31:45,909 --> 00:31:44,000
get started on studying for new guests

871
00:31:47,669 --> 00:31:45,919
and to talk to some of the community as

872
00:31:50,070 --> 00:31:47,679
well

873
00:31:52,149 --> 00:31:50,080
so i'm

874
00:31:53,509 --> 00:31:52,159
at least temporarily being

875
00:31:55,590 --> 00:31:53,519
foolish and

876
00:31:59,430 --> 00:31:55,600
pursuing this rather than

877
00:32:04,070 --> 00:32:01,669
brent okay i'll take some questions from

878
00:32:06,389 --> 00:32:04,080
the audience right now if i'm ignoring

879
00:32:07,909 --> 00:32:06,399
your question it's because i'm reading

880
00:32:10,470 --> 00:32:07,919
the questions that have been given to me

881
00:32:13,830 --> 00:32:10,480
from a few weeks ago there are quite a

882
00:32:16,389 --> 00:32:13,840
few comments please oh roon thorson

883
00:32:17,909 --> 00:32:16,399
thank you so much for donating

884
00:32:20,710 --> 00:32:17,919
have you considered space being a

885
00:32:22,870 --> 00:32:20,720
literal movie stage

886
00:32:24,070 --> 00:32:22,880
i don't know what it i'm sorry roon i

887
00:32:26,389 --> 00:32:24,080
don't know what you mean by literal

888
00:32:27,110 --> 00:32:26,399
movie stage i'm a filmmaker

889
00:32:30,149 --> 00:32:27,120
and

890
00:32:32,149 --> 00:32:30,159
i would say we use our movie stage

891
00:32:34,230 --> 00:32:32,159
in space so it'd be strange if space was

892
00:32:35,990 --> 00:32:34,240
a movie stage i don't

893
00:32:37,110 --> 00:32:36,000
i don't know how to understand that

894
00:32:41,509 --> 00:32:37,120
question

895
00:32:44,789 --> 00:32:43,430
stefan the current status of better left

896
00:32:48,549 --> 00:32:44,799
unsaid is that it's complete it's

897
00:32:51,509 --> 00:32:49,950
please visit

898
00:32:53,990 --> 00:32:51,519

899
00:32:56,549 --> 00:32:54,000
buy better left unsaid because then you

900
00:32:59,029 --> 00:32:56,559
will get the director's version anna

901
00:33:00,630 --> 00:32:59,039
likomsky says is my toe for is my quest

902
00:33:02,310 --> 00:33:00,640
for toe spiritual or scientific i'd say

903
00:33:03,990 --> 00:33:02,320
it's both and i don't see why they need

904
00:33:07,029 --> 00:33:04,000
to be different and perhaps they're both

905
00:33:08,470 --> 00:33:07,039
the same in their extreme perhaps

906
00:33:10,389 --> 00:33:08,480
something i'm thinking about is what is

907
00:33:12,230 --> 00:33:10,399
science 2.0 this is something you may

908
00:33:14,389 --> 00:33:12,240
hear me talk about quite frequently at

909
00:33:16,950 --> 00:33:14,399
least

910
00:33:19,029 --> 00:33:16,960
starting soon

911
00:33:21,590 --> 00:33:19,039
it's a project of mine

912
00:33:25,029 --> 00:33:21,600
think about this science started

913
00:33:25,990 --> 00:33:25,039
from pre-science that is from alchemy

914
00:33:27,669 --> 00:33:26,000
and

915
00:33:29,430 --> 00:33:27,679
observation rather than experimentation

916
00:33:31,269 --> 00:33:29,440
that was aristotle

917
00:33:32,870 --> 00:33:31,279
and then it became science so then that

918
00:33:34,230 --> 00:33:32,880
means there's a trajectory so then i'm

919
00:33:37,269 --> 00:33:34,240
wondering well what the heck does that

920
00:33:39,269 --> 00:33:37,279
mean for where it can go

921
00:33:41,110 --> 00:33:39,279
what does science 2.0 look like does it

922
00:33:45,669 --> 00:33:41,120
mean it just explains more phenomenon

923
00:33:49,830 --> 00:33:47,509
rebecca says that she loved the tammy

924
00:33:51,750 --> 00:33:49,840
peterson interview thank you rebecca i

925
00:33:53,350 --> 00:33:51,760
appreciate it

926
00:33:55,269 --> 00:33:53,360
making sense says we're investing in

927
00:33:56,950 --> 00:33:55,279
your growth man thank you so much you

928
00:34:00,549 --> 00:33:56,960
definitely are investing in my growth

929
00:34:02,950 --> 00:34:00,559
and i appreciate it and hopefully

930
00:34:04,710 --> 00:34:02,960
in some small way

931
00:34:08,790 --> 00:34:04,720
i'm investing in yours

932
00:34:11,909 --> 00:34:10,389
that's a tough question rebecca i can't

933
00:34:13,990 --> 00:34:11,919
answer that

934
00:34:16,230 --> 00:34:14,000
brandon sp says do you think philosophy

935
00:34:17,750 --> 00:34:16,240
should be more crucially

936
00:34:20,550 --> 00:34:17,760
in stem

937
00:34:22,149 --> 00:34:20,560
that's interesting

938
00:34:24,149 --> 00:34:22,159
see

939
00:34:25,990 --> 00:34:24,159
the people of this channel

940
00:34:28,230 --> 00:34:26,000
sorry that is you who are watching

941
00:34:30,230 --> 00:34:28,240
you're likely extremely high in openness

942
00:34:31,430 --> 00:34:30,240
extremely high otherwise you wouldn't be

943
00:34:33,349 --> 00:34:31,440
on this channel and people who are high

944
00:34:34,790 --> 00:34:33,359
in openness and high in intellect tend

945
00:34:36,389 --> 00:34:34,800
to think that everyone else should

946
00:34:37,829 --> 00:34:36,399
operate in the same way that they do and

947
00:34:39,430 --> 00:34:37,839
i don't think so i don't think that

948
00:34:40,710 --> 00:34:39,440
everyone should be guided by philosophy

949
00:34:42,629 --> 00:34:40,720
i don't think it interests them i don't

950
00:34:43,510 --> 00:34:42,639
think that it's useful for them at all

951
00:34:44,389 --> 00:34:43,520
and

952
00:34:48,629 --> 00:34:44,399
i

953
00:34:50,230 --> 00:34:48,639
you'll hear me never

954
00:34:52,230 --> 00:34:50,240
or seldom i don't like to use the word

955
00:34:53,270 --> 00:34:52,240
never you'll hear me almost never say

956
00:34:55,190 --> 00:34:53,280
the word

957
00:34:57,430 --> 00:34:55,200
stupid

958
00:34:58,550 --> 00:34:57,440
to describe people of low iq and that's

959
00:35:00,710 --> 00:34:58,560
because

960
00:35:03,990 --> 00:35:00,720
i don't

961
00:35:06,150 --> 00:35:04,000
with people with low iq and i

962
00:35:07,589 --> 00:35:06,160
i see it as a

963
00:35:09,430 --> 00:35:07,599
an arrogance of people who are

964
00:35:16,470 --> 00:35:09,440
intellectual to look down at people who

965
00:35:19,349 --> 00:35:17,829
at the same time they need them to run

966
00:35:21,109 --> 00:35:19,359
their companies so they despise them yet

967
00:35:22,630 --> 00:35:21,119
they need them which means you you don't

968
00:35:24,390 --> 00:35:22,640
like the people that you cooperate with

969
00:35:26,470 --> 00:35:24,400
which means you don't like humanity in

970
00:35:30,150 --> 00:35:26,480
some respect also iq is heavily

971
00:35:33,510 --> 00:35:31,349
that means that

972
00:35:35,349 --> 00:35:33,520
calling someone stupid which to me is an

973
00:35:36,710 --> 00:35:35,359
ethically thick word

974
00:35:39,270 --> 00:35:36,720
which means that it comes with a

975
00:35:41,510 --> 00:35:39,280
descriptive

976
00:35:43,190 --> 00:35:41,520
a description and a connotation so the

977
00:35:44,870 --> 00:35:43,200
description is you have a low iq but the

978
00:35:46,390 --> 00:35:44,880
the connotation is that you're inferior

979
00:35:47,990 --> 00:35:46,400
because of it it's almost like the n

980
00:35:49,349 --> 00:35:48,000
word there's the description you're a

981
00:35:50,870 --> 00:35:49,359
black person but then there's the

982
00:35:52,470 --> 00:35:50,880
connotation it's that you're inferior

983
00:35:54,550 --> 00:35:52,480
and i'm insulting you

984
00:35:56,950 --> 00:35:54,560
the word stupid is like that and i don't

985
00:35:59,349 --> 00:35:56,960
like that word stupid i don't i

986
00:36:00,790 --> 00:35:59,359
i wish that intellectuals wouldn't use

987
00:36:02,710 --> 00:36:00,800
that word

988
00:36:04,630 --> 00:36:02,720
because it firstly makes people with low

989
00:36:07,270 --> 00:36:04,640
iq feel horrible about themselves and

990
00:36:08,790 --> 00:36:07,280
they can't necessarily help it because

991
00:36:10,950 --> 00:36:08,800
like i mentioned

992
00:36:13,190 --> 00:36:10,960
the research indicates that iq is

993
00:36:14,550 --> 00:36:13,200
extremely inveterate it's

994
00:36:15,750 --> 00:36:14,560
it's like your ethnicity it's something

995
00:36:17,270 --> 00:36:15,760
you can't

996
00:36:19,670 --> 00:36:17,280
change though you can harm it you can

997
00:36:21,270 --> 00:36:19,680
reduce it

998
00:36:24,550 --> 00:36:21,280
and so it's like being racist to me if

999
00:36:26,310 --> 00:36:24,560
someone says you're stupid that's like

1000
00:36:31,109 --> 00:36:26,320
it's the same it should be considered to

1001
00:36:33,910 --> 00:36:32,470
anyway brandon to answer your question

1002
00:36:35,829 --> 00:36:33,920
about do i think philosophy should

1003
00:36:37,030 --> 00:36:35,839
feature more crucially in stem education

1004
00:36:40,550 --> 00:36:37,040
i don't

1005
00:36:42,150 --> 00:36:40,560
think it's for everyone though i need to

1006
00:36:43,670 --> 00:36:42,160
think more about that question brandon

1007
00:36:45,589 --> 00:36:43,680
sp you also have another question what

1008
00:36:47,430 --> 00:36:45,599
is your intuition as to the weirdness of

1009
00:36:51,349 --> 00:36:47,440
a theory of everything that would have

1010
00:36:55,829 --> 00:36:53,910
any ideas as to its form compared to

1011
00:36:57,670 --> 00:36:55,839
current conceptions of physics i think

1012
00:36:59,589 --> 00:36:57,680
at a minimum it should unify general

1013
00:37:01,750 --> 00:36:59,599
relativity and quantum field theory i

1014
00:37:03,430 --> 00:37:01,760
think at a minimum it should do that i

1015
00:37:04,950 --> 00:37:03,440
think that there may be more forces than

1016
00:37:07,750 --> 00:37:04,960
just the four that we know i think

1017
00:37:10,150 --> 00:37:07,760
space-time isn't as simple as

1018
00:37:12,310 --> 00:37:10,160
or may not be as simple as a pseudo

1019
00:37:16,150 --> 00:37:12,320
romanian four manifold i think it may be

1020
00:37:18,390 --> 00:37:16,160
more strange than just that

1021
00:37:21,750 --> 00:37:18,400
i think consciousness may have

1022
00:37:24,550 --> 00:37:21,760
some integral part to play

1023
00:37:26,550 --> 00:37:24,560
and i'm not saying this in any hokey or

1024
00:37:28,950 --> 00:37:26,560
quote-unquote woo-woo manner because

1025
00:37:30,470 --> 00:37:28,960
nema arkani hamed and even edwin have

1026
00:37:32,950 --> 00:37:30,480
espoused similar sentiments though i

1027
00:37:35,109 --> 00:37:32,960
can't find the exact quotation

1028
00:37:37,349 --> 00:37:35,119
i've looked for the edwitten one

1029
00:37:38,710 --> 00:37:37,359
nima though nima did say that he thinks

1030
00:37:40,069 --> 00:37:38,720
consciousness may have something to do

1031
00:37:41,829 --> 00:37:40,079
with the collapse of the wave function

1032
00:37:43,670 --> 00:37:41,839
and the reason he gives is

1033
00:37:45,829 --> 00:37:43,680
it's a great one he says penrose thinks

1034
00:37:47,190 --> 00:37:45,839
so and penrose isn't an idiot and i

1035
00:37:49,190 --> 00:37:47,200
don't and

1036
00:37:50,630 --> 00:37:49,200
well that's basically the argument

1037
00:37:52,390 --> 00:37:50,640
nima is one of the brightest physicists

1038
00:37:53,910 --> 00:37:52,400
in the world by the way i also think

1039
00:37:55,829 --> 00:37:53,920
that an understanding as to the origins

1040
00:37:59,270 --> 00:37:55,839
of the universe is necessary for a toe

1041
00:38:01,589 --> 00:37:59,280
for a theory of everything so those are

1042
00:38:02,710 --> 00:38:01,599
those are five elements that is

1043
00:38:03,990 --> 00:38:02,720
unifying

1044
00:38:05,829 --> 00:38:04,000
quantum field theory with general

1045
00:38:07,430 --> 00:38:05,839
relativity i think that there may be

1046
00:38:09,510 --> 00:38:07,440
more forces this is not necessary i'm

1047
00:38:11,910 --> 00:38:09,520
surmising and then

1048
00:38:13,270 --> 00:38:11,920
space-time is

1049
00:38:16,829 --> 00:38:13,280
more intricate than a simple

1050
00:38:20,550 --> 00:38:16,839
pseudo-rimanian four manifold

1051
00:38:23,109 --> 00:38:20,560
that consciousness may

1052
00:38:24,230 --> 00:38:23,119
have a paramount role and that i believe

1053
00:38:25,990 --> 00:38:24,240
it has to do with the origins of the

1054
00:38:27,829 --> 00:38:26,000
universe bubble puppy says have you

1055
00:38:30,230 --> 00:38:27,839
tried to get bob lazar on so yes i've

1056
00:38:32,470 --> 00:38:30,240
tried to get bob lazar on i

1057
00:38:34,230 --> 00:38:32,480
don't want to use jeremy corvell

1058
00:38:35,349 --> 00:38:34,240
or corbell as a contact because it's

1059
00:38:37,990 --> 00:38:35,359
off-putting to use some of your

1060
00:38:39,910 --> 00:38:38,000
interviewees to get other interviewees

1061
00:38:41,190 --> 00:38:39,920
but i have no idea of how to contact bob

1062
00:38:44,630 --> 00:38:41,200
and i think that

1063
00:38:45,910 --> 00:38:44,640
bob lazar is uninterested in speaking

1064
00:38:47,270 --> 00:38:45,920
which is why i would love to just talk

1065
00:38:48,470 --> 00:38:47,280
to him about physics

1066
00:38:52,390 --> 00:38:48,480
phillip

1067
00:38:54,150 --> 00:38:52,400
i appreciate it philip

1068
00:38:55,990 --> 00:38:54,160
strenstrom

1069
00:38:59,349 --> 00:38:56,000
asked a question and it

1070
00:39:03,030 --> 00:39:01,109
yeah okay so graeme

1071
00:39:04,790 --> 00:39:03,040
josh says jos

1072
00:39:06,069 --> 00:39:04,800
please

1073
00:39:07,190 --> 00:39:06,079
excuse me if i'm mispronouncing your

1074
00:39:09,190 --> 00:39:07,200
name

1075
00:39:10,470 --> 00:39:09,200
graham jose says kurt what do you plan

1076
00:39:12,310 --> 00:39:10,480
on doing with the knowledge you're

1077
00:39:14,950 --> 00:39:12,320
collecting is there a synthesis coming

1078
00:39:16,390 --> 00:39:14,960
well

1079
00:39:17,910 --> 00:39:16,400
see there are different kinds of

1080
00:39:19,349 --> 00:39:17,920
mathematicians they're the kinds of

1081
00:39:20,630 --> 00:39:19,359
mathematics and i'm not a mathematician

1082
00:39:22,150 --> 00:39:20,640
but

1083
00:39:24,310 --> 00:39:22,160
let me go down this route there are some

1084
00:39:25,910 --> 00:39:24,320
mathematicians who are great at the

1085
00:39:28,790 --> 00:39:25,920
details and there's some mathematicians

1086
00:39:31,510 --> 00:39:28,800
who are great at overviews now i

1087
00:39:33,349 --> 00:39:31,520
i would say i i'm more esm plastic in

1088
00:39:35,270 --> 00:39:33,359
the sense that i'm much more interested

1089
00:39:37,910 --> 00:39:35,280
in unifying disparate fields and

1090
00:39:39,349 --> 00:39:37,920
principles and i ha i seem to have a

1091
00:39:40,790 --> 00:39:39,359
knack for that this is one of the

1092
00:39:42,150 --> 00:39:40,800
reasons why i'm

1093
00:39:44,150 --> 00:39:42,160
interviewing as many variegated

1094
00:39:46,310 --> 00:39:44,160
intellectuals as i possibly can then

1095
00:39:49,109 --> 00:39:46,320
i'll assemble so yes there is a

1096
00:39:51,030 --> 00:39:49,119
synthesis coming it's not coming

1097
00:39:52,630 --> 00:39:51,040
only from me but

1098
00:39:54,870 --> 00:39:52,640
hopefully from you all as well we have a

1099
00:39:57,270 --> 00:39:54,880
discord and people talk there

1100
00:40:00,230 --> 00:39:57,280
and i do read it i don't get the chance

1101
00:40:01,910 --> 00:40:00,240
to read them all all the time but

1102
00:40:03,829 --> 00:40:01,920
oh yes at some point here's what i would

1103
00:40:05,990 --> 00:40:03,839
like to do this is an announcement i

1104
00:40:07,910 --> 00:40:06,000
would like to get some people who are

1105
00:40:10,069 --> 00:40:07,920
audience members that have their own toe

1106
00:40:12,630 --> 00:40:10,079
their own theory of everything to come

1107
00:40:14,069 --> 00:40:12,640
on the toe clippings channel which will

1108
00:40:15,910 --> 00:40:14,079
have a link in the description i think

1109
00:40:18,069 --> 00:40:15,920
it already does if not you can find it

1110
00:40:19,910 --> 00:40:18,079
search toe clippings and youtube it's a

1111
00:40:21,829 --> 00:40:19,920
channel of the clips from this channel

1112
00:40:23,510 --> 00:40:21,839
and i want them to live stream because i

1113
00:40:25,430 --> 00:40:23,520
don't have the time always to go through

1114
00:40:27,510 --> 00:40:25,440
it takes me quite some time to go

1115
00:40:29,510 --> 00:40:27,520
through someone's corpus of work it

1116
00:40:31,510 --> 00:40:29,520
would be great if what would happen is i

1117
00:40:33,750 --> 00:40:31,520
get two people who two audience members

1118
00:40:35,910 --> 00:40:33,760
who have tolls and i say hey you want to

1119
00:40:37,589 --> 00:40:35,920
be talked about on this channel and i

1120
00:40:38,950 --> 00:40:37,599
would like you to be talked about as

1121
00:40:40,550 --> 00:40:38,960
well but i don't have the time to go

1122
00:40:42,790 --> 00:40:40,560
through your entire theory so why don't

1123
00:40:44,710 --> 00:40:42,800
you learn this person's theory and this

1124
00:40:46,470 --> 00:40:44,720
person learn this person's theory and

1125
00:40:48,390 --> 00:40:46,480
battle it out on a live stream with me

1126
00:40:49,750 --> 00:40:48,400
moderating this way

1127
00:40:51,510 --> 00:40:49,760
there's something called theomaki which

1128
00:40:53,190 --> 00:40:51,520
is battle of the gods and i tend to like

1129
00:40:55,829 --> 00:40:53,200
that that's one of the reasons why i

1130
00:40:57,750 --> 00:40:55,839
think people find debates to be

1131
00:40:59,430 --> 00:40:57,760
nourishing and

1132
00:41:01,349 --> 00:40:59,440
pre-possessing it's because you're

1133
00:41:03,190 --> 00:41:01,359
seeing people who are

1134
00:41:05,829 --> 00:41:03,200
giants fight to the best of their

1135
00:41:07,829 --> 00:41:05,839
ability and then you learn often much

1136
00:41:10,230 --> 00:41:07,839
more than if they were to simply present

1137
00:41:12,230 --> 00:41:10,240
their work in a lecture daniel says how

1138
00:41:14,710 --> 00:41:12,240
have your views on marxism evolved since

1139
00:41:16,710 --> 00:41:14,720
starting this channel well again

1140
00:41:19,270 --> 00:41:16,720
for those who are watching not to turn

1141
00:41:20,710 --> 00:41:19,280
this into a complete promotion for

1142
00:41:22,230 --> 00:41:20,720
better left unsaid but i have a

1143
00:41:23,829 --> 00:41:22,240
documentary called better left unsaid

1144
00:41:24,790 --> 00:41:23,839
which is about when does the left go too

1145
00:41:27,349 --> 00:41:24,800
far the

1146
00:41:29,349 --> 00:41:27,359
political left

1147
00:41:31,190 --> 00:41:29,359
the reason is that it's extremely easy

1148
00:41:33,190 --> 00:41:31,200
to identify when the right goes too far

1149
00:41:36,230 --> 00:41:33,200
because one might

1150
00:41:38,550 --> 00:41:36,240
co-locate them with racists and

1151
00:41:40,390 --> 00:41:38,560
bigots and so on and they seem to

1152
00:41:42,150 --> 00:41:40,400
overtly

1153
00:41:43,510 --> 00:41:42,160
state that

1154
00:41:45,349 --> 00:41:43,520
whereas on the left it's more

1155
00:41:47,270 --> 00:41:45,359
philosophical which

1156
00:41:48,790 --> 00:41:47,280
you can read as that being my domain i

1157
00:41:49,829 --> 00:41:48,800
like philosophy now that that's out of

1158
00:41:52,870 --> 00:41:49,839
the way the person wants to know how

1159
00:41:54,150 --> 00:41:52,880
have my views on marxism evolved

1160
00:41:56,470 --> 00:41:54,160
my views have changed to become more

1161
00:41:58,630 --> 00:41:56,480
perplexed by anyone who is staunched in

1162
00:42:00,470 --> 00:41:58,640
thinking that marxism is correct or

1163
00:42:06,150 --> 00:42:00,480
if they think socialism is correct or

1164
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:10,230
it's just extremely difficult to

1165
00:42:10,240 --> 00:42:16,309
these these concepts these

1166
00:42:20,470 --> 00:42:18,069
firstly there's no consensus as to what

1167
00:42:22,390 --> 00:42:20,480
marxism is there's no consensus as to

1168
00:42:23,910 --> 00:42:22,400
what socialism is there's no consensus

1169
00:42:25,030 --> 00:42:23,920
as to what capitalism is though there

1170
00:42:26,470 --> 00:42:25,040
seems to be a little bit more of a

1171
00:42:28,150 --> 00:42:26,480
consensus there

1172
00:42:29,510 --> 00:42:28,160
and so when someone says capitalism is

1173
00:42:32,710 --> 00:42:29,520
absolutely correct

1174
00:42:35,510 --> 00:42:32,720
tells me more about their predilection

1175
00:42:37,190 --> 00:42:35,520
to adherence of a particular

1176
00:42:38,390 --> 00:42:37,200
handed down doctrine than it does tell

1177
00:42:39,670 --> 00:42:38,400
me about their

1178
00:42:41,510 --> 00:42:39,680
then it does tell me about the doctrine

1179
00:42:44,390 --> 00:42:41,520
itself and so i'd say that's how my

1180
00:42:45,990 --> 00:42:44,400
views have changed drug gupta says your

1181
00:42:47,349 --> 00:42:46,000
he wants to know or she wants to know

1182
00:42:48,710 --> 00:42:47,359
your introduction with films and you're

1183
00:42:50,470 --> 00:42:48,720
interested in watching them now now i

1184
00:42:51,910 --> 00:42:50,480
used to i watch

1185
00:42:53,430 --> 00:42:51,920
virtually any movie now i used to be a

1186
00:42:55,030 --> 00:42:53,440
film snob as for my introduction to

1187
00:42:56,390 --> 00:42:55,040
films i

1188
00:42:58,710 --> 00:42:56,400
started off just like anyone else just

1189
00:43:00,790 --> 00:42:58,720
watching films never had a extreme

1190
00:43:02,470 --> 00:43:00,800
attraction to them still don't i just

1191
00:43:04,309 --> 00:43:02,480
watch them with my wife almost as

1192
00:43:05,670 --> 00:43:04,319
pastime to enjoy

1193
00:43:07,670 --> 00:43:05,680
with her

1194
00:43:09,589 --> 00:43:07,680
i'm i don't crave watching films i

1195
00:43:12,150 --> 00:43:09,599
actually enjoy creating more than i do

1196
00:43:14,550 --> 00:43:12,160
watching and i'll always have elijah

1197
00:43:16,950 --> 00:43:14,560
says hey kurt revulet here

1198
00:43:18,309 --> 00:43:16,960
i'm fascinated by people's upbringing

1199
00:43:19,510 --> 00:43:18,319
and was curious if you could give us a

1200
00:43:21,270 --> 00:43:19,520
rundown as to what it was like growing

1201
00:43:22,790 --> 00:43:21,280
up what were your parents like what were

1202
00:43:24,710 --> 00:43:22,800
some of the most significant moments of

1203
00:43:26,230 --> 00:43:24,720
your life

1204
00:43:28,230 --> 00:43:26,240
what was it like growing up well i grew

1205
00:43:29,910 --> 00:43:28,240
up in a somewhat tough neighborhood of

1206
00:43:31,030 --> 00:43:29,920
toronto

1207
00:43:33,910 --> 00:43:31,040
keep in mind tough neighborhood of

1208
00:43:35,589 --> 00:43:33,920
toronto that's in canada that means

1209
00:43:36,630 --> 00:43:35,599
a pleasant neighborhood in the states

1210
00:43:38,390 --> 00:43:36,640
let's see

1211
00:43:39,589 --> 00:43:38,400
so i grew up in a relatively tough

1212
00:43:44,710 --> 00:43:39,599
neighborhood in toronto called jane and

1213
00:43:49,349 --> 00:43:46,630
my parents are hard-working people

1214
00:43:50,150 --> 00:43:49,359
hard hard hard hard hard working people

1215
00:43:52,829 --> 00:43:50,160
they

1216
00:43:55,750 --> 00:43:52,839
worked like mad

1217
00:43:58,470 --> 00:43:55,760
they came from almost nothing my dad

1218
00:44:00,870 --> 00:43:58,480
especially my dad's and his brothers

1219
00:44:02,950 --> 00:44:00,880
slept on dirt in trinidad there were

1220
00:44:04,790 --> 00:44:02,960
nights where they slept on dirt

1221
00:44:06,550 --> 00:44:04,800
there were nights or times where they

1222
00:44:11,430 --> 00:44:06,560
ate

1223
00:44:15,030 --> 00:44:11,440
i think means that they were lacking in

1224
00:44:23,670 --> 00:44:18,150
it came from that to coming to toronto

1225
00:44:28,309 --> 00:44:25,829
now i have this

1226
00:44:30,710 --> 00:44:28,319
sumptuous splendor of prosperity around

1227
00:44:35,270 --> 00:44:32,710
where i have a condo and i can speak

1228
00:44:37,190 --> 00:44:35,280
into a microphone and relay that to

1229
00:44:41,510 --> 00:44:37,200
hundreds or at least almost 100 people

1230
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:46,470
and they have nice clothing and i have

1231
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:50,550
it's just it's just wonderful

1232
00:44:59,430 --> 00:44:53,190
i'm not a tenth of my parents

1233
00:45:02,829 --> 00:45:01,589
as for what were the significant moments

1234
00:45:05,990 --> 00:45:02,839
of my life getting

1235
00:45:08,230 --> 00:45:06,000
married getting married was a

1236
00:45:10,950 --> 00:45:08,240
huge moment for me

1237
00:45:13,990 --> 00:45:10,960
i love my wife

1238
00:45:15,270 --> 00:45:14,000
screening my first film was also a huge

1239
00:45:16,470 --> 00:45:15,280
moment for me

1240
00:45:17,990 --> 00:45:16,480
it's screened at a place called the

1241
00:45:19,750 --> 00:45:18,000
toronto international film festival

1242
00:45:24,870 --> 00:45:19,760
lightbox

1243
00:45:26,470 --> 00:45:24,880
media

1244
00:45:28,309 --> 00:45:26,480
that was a huge moment for me because it

1245
00:45:29,670 --> 00:45:28,319
was received

1246
00:45:31,510 --> 00:45:29,680
well although i wouldn't recommend

1247
00:45:32,710 --> 00:45:31,520
watching it now it's

1248
00:45:35,030 --> 00:45:32,720
anything that i've done that's more than

1249
00:45:37,270 --> 00:45:35,040
two years old i'm utterly embarrassed of

1250
00:45:39,349 --> 00:45:37,280
odd turly in fact anything that's more

1251
00:45:41,589 --> 00:45:39,359
than six months old i

1252
00:45:43,430 --> 00:45:41,599
i cringe at so this is five years old

1253
00:45:45,349 --> 00:45:43,440
and or six years old i wouldn't look at

1254
00:45:46,390 --> 00:45:45,359
it if i was you i'll take some questions

1255
00:45:47,430 --> 00:45:46,400
now from the

1256
00:45:49,190 --> 00:45:47,440
chat

1257
00:45:50,309 --> 00:45:49,200
did i ever take peterson's classes at u

1258
00:45:52,309 --> 00:45:50,319
of t no

1259
00:45:54,230 --> 00:45:52,319
didn't know about him okay so this

1260
00:45:55,829 --> 00:45:54,240
person says you said in the orchards

1261
00:45:57,190 --> 00:45:55,839
interview that he was the smartest one

1262
00:45:58,790 --> 00:45:57,200
of the smartest if not the smartest then

1263
00:46:00,470 --> 00:45:58,800
who is the smartest he is he's the

1264
00:46:02,230 --> 00:46:00,480
smartest person that i've interviewed i

1265
00:46:03,510 --> 00:46:02,240
believe what did my mother and father do

1266
00:46:05,190 --> 00:46:03,520
to earn this type of wealth they just

1267
00:46:08,710 --> 00:46:05,200
kept working my mom worked at a factory

1268
00:46:10,630 --> 00:46:08,720
job like a hard labor factory job my dad

1269
00:46:12,870 --> 00:46:10,640
at like 35

1270
00:46:14,630 --> 00:46:12,880
got an undergrad degree when he couldn't

1271
00:46:16,470 --> 00:46:14,640
even understand the teachers

1272
00:46:17,670 --> 00:46:16,480
because he not that trinidad is

1273
00:46:19,990 --> 00:46:17,680
different than english but it is a

1274
00:46:22,710 --> 00:46:20,000
different kind of english he would have

1275
00:46:23,990 --> 00:46:22,720
to write all the words that the teacher

1276
00:46:25,910 --> 00:46:24,000
said

1277
00:46:27,270 --> 00:46:25,920
and he even wrote down the jokes and he

1278
00:46:28,710 --> 00:46:27,280
didn't know what were jokes and what

1279
00:46:31,190 --> 00:46:28,720
weren't jokes because he couldn't

1280
00:46:32,950 --> 00:46:31,200
comprehend it particularly well and he

1281
00:46:35,349 --> 00:46:32,960
would reread and re he basically

1282
00:46:36,630 --> 00:46:35,359
memorized different textbooks

1283
00:46:38,230 --> 00:46:36,640
because that was the only way he could

1284
00:46:39,430 --> 00:46:38,240
learn

1285
00:46:42,309 --> 00:46:39,440
they tell you don't memorize but

1286
00:46:43,670 --> 00:46:42,319
memorizing is actually i think that's a

1287
00:46:45,190 --> 00:46:43,680
i think that's a disservice that our

1288
00:46:46,950 --> 00:46:45,200
culture has done by saying you shouldn't

1289
00:46:48,790 --> 00:46:46,960
memorize what you can easily look up and

1290
00:46:50,870 --> 00:46:48,800
in some sense that's true but there is a

1291
00:46:52,710 --> 00:46:50,880
case to be made for memorization having

1292
00:46:54,230 --> 00:46:52,720
it within your working memory or at

1293
00:46:56,470 --> 00:46:54,240
least within your the capacity of your

1294
00:46:59,349 --> 00:46:56,480
working memory with facility is of great

1295
00:47:01,190 --> 00:46:59,359
use so my dad at 35 he said he was

1296
00:47:04,470 --> 00:47:01,200
humiliated because people were 18 year

1297
00:47:05,910 --> 00:47:04,480
olds in his classes but and at times he

1298
00:47:07,670 --> 00:47:05,920
would even sleep in a car because he had

1299
00:47:09,349 --> 00:47:07,680
to drive far and he couldn't drive back

1300
00:47:11,910 --> 00:47:09,359
he would sleep in his car go to classes

1301
00:47:13,349 --> 00:47:11,920
just to get a degree at around 35 36

1302
00:47:14,790 --> 00:47:13,359
years old just so that he can get

1303
00:47:16,710 --> 00:47:14,800
eventually a master so that he can

1304
00:47:19,510 --> 00:47:16,720
become a teacher

1305
00:47:20,870 --> 00:47:19,520
so my mom's back-breaking work almost

1306
00:47:22,829 --> 00:47:20,880
literally back-breaking work at a

1307
00:47:26,309 --> 00:47:22,839
factory and my dad's

1308
00:47:28,390 --> 00:47:26,319
intense devotion to scholarly accolades

1309
00:47:29,910 --> 00:47:28,400
so that he can be hired as a teacher

1310
00:47:31,910 --> 00:47:29,920
is what allowed for me to be in the

1311
00:47:33,589 --> 00:47:31,920
position that i'm in now elijah says can

1312
00:47:35,589 --> 00:47:33,599
you explain the most bizarre profound

1313
00:47:36,549 --> 00:47:35,599
experience that i've ever had whether

1314
00:48:00,230 --> 00:47:36,559
dreaming under the influence

1315
00:48:06,470 --> 00:48:01,190
no

1316
00:48:07,829 --> 00:48:06,480
philip all says

1317
00:48:09,589 --> 00:48:07,839
do you think there could be another

1318
00:48:10,950 --> 00:48:09,599
coherent answer to the

1319
00:48:12,309 --> 00:48:10,960
question of why is there something

1320
00:48:14,150 --> 00:48:12,319
rather than nothing i think there could

1321
00:48:15,270 --> 00:48:14,160
be i don't see why there why there can't

1322
00:48:16,710 --> 00:48:15,280
be i just don't know what it would look

1323
00:48:19,270 --> 00:48:16,720
like and i don't have a clue as to what

1324
00:48:20,630 --> 00:48:19,280
it is philip s says i have a question

1325
00:48:22,710 --> 00:48:20,640
for you that's waited on me for some

1326
00:48:24,549 --> 00:48:22,720
time this is a

1327
00:48:26,309 --> 00:48:24,559
a problem a feeling of inadequacy and

1328
00:48:27,750 --> 00:48:26,319
uselessness when i think of someone

1329
00:48:30,630 --> 00:48:27,760
better than me i get the feeling that

1330
00:48:32,150 --> 00:48:30,640
i'm less than that person

1331
00:48:33,349 --> 00:48:32,160
there's something humiliating about the

1332
00:48:34,390 --> 00:48:33,359
fact that there's someone who's better

1333
00:48:36,230 --> 00:48:34,400
than me

1334
00:48:36,950 --> 00:48:36,240
and stands up higher in the hierarchy

1335
00:48:39,030 --> 00:48:36,960
and

1336
00:48:42,069 --> 00:48:39,040
as if they have power over me

1337
00:48:43,990 --> 00:48:42,079
are all humans equally worth

1338
00:48:46,230 --> 00:48:44,000
i think you mean to say are all humans

1339
00:48:48,549 --> 00:48:46,240
of equal worth

1340
00:48:50,630 --> 00:48:48,559
isn't it obvious that humans have

1341
00:48:53,349 --> 00:48:50,640
different degrees of power

1342
00:48:54,710 --> 00:48:53,359
he references spinoza

1343
00:48:56,230 --> 00:48:54,720
the thought of this makes me feel

1344
00:48:58,309 --> 00:48:56,240
inadequate and worthless especially

1345
00:49:01,030 --> 00:48:58,319
compared to some people like for example

1346
00:49:08,390 --> 00:49:01,040
noam chomsky he said

1347
00:49:13,030 --> 00:49:10,710
there's a quote that i reference plenty

1348
00:49:16,710 --> 00:49:13,040
it's by hildegard de bingen she was a

1349
00:49:18,470 --> 00:49:16,720
medieval monk i believe

1350
00:49:21,109 --> 00:49:18,480
she said

1351
00:49:23,750 --> 00:49:21,119
in one of her writings

1352
00:49:24,710 --> 00:49:23,760
and pride germinated in the first angel

1353
00:49:26,230 --> 00:49:24,720
as

1354
00:49:27,430 --> 00:49:26,240
he could no longer comprehend the source

1355
00:49:29,030 --> 00:49:27,440
of his own light and through his own

1356
00:49:33,190 --> 00:49:29,040
radiance he said

1357
00:49:35,750 --> 00:49:35,030
i want to be master and want none above

1358
00:49:39,829 --> 00:49:35,760
me

1359
00:49:43,670 --> 00:49:39,839
that one i think about

1360
00:49:47,910 --> 00:49:45,510
there's such power there so i want none

1361
00:49:49,349 --> 00:49:47,920
above me is interesting

1362
00:49:51,510 --> 00:49:49,359
it equates

1363
00:49:53,910 --> 00:49:51,520
wanting no master

1364
00:49:55,750 --> 00:49:53,920
with lucifer so that is it's satanic

1365
00:50:00,069 --> 00:49:55,760
thinking to think that

1366
00:50:04,069 --> 00:50:01,990
i understand that this can be taken to

1367
00:50:06,309 --> 00:50:04,079
mean okay well let's justify slavery

1368
00:50:07,589 --> 00:50:06,319
then but that's not what it's saying

1369
00:50:10,829 --> 00:50:07,599
i mean you can interpret it like that

1370
00:50:13,109 --> 00:50:10,839
but i think that's as foolish as

1371
00:50:15,349 --> 00:50:13,119
interpreting the early comics of wonder

1372
00:50:17,190 --> 00:50:15,359
woman to be about sex when

1373
00:50:19,510 --> 00:50:17,200
that's not all they were about

1374
00:50:22,150 --> 00:50:19,520
i saw that in a movie once and that

1375
00:50:24,309 --> 00:50:22,160
reminded me of matt dillahunty

1376
00:50:26,710 --> 00:50:24,319
talking about that god likes human

1377
00:50:28,630 --> 00:50:26,720
barbecue it's ridiculous it's ridiculous

1378
00:50:30,549 --> 00:50:28,640
to say that it's such a simple-minded

1379
00:50:31,750 --> 00:50:30,559
reading of it and then

1380
00:50:36,470 --> 00:50:31,760
what's

1381
00:50:38,470 --> 00:50:36,480
that it's true

1382
00:50:39,670 --> 00:50:38,480
but it's not all that's true in the same

1383
00:50:41,910 --> 00:50:39,680
way that

1384
00:50:44,790 --> 00:50:41,920
the early wonder woman

1385
00:50:47,109 --> 00:50:44,800
comics weren't just about sex

1386
00:50:48,710 --> 00:50:47,119
they also liberated many women or

1387
00:50:50,630 --> 00:50:48,720
were about female empowerment and so on

1388
00:50:52,710 --> 00:50:50,640
and to say it was just about someone in

1389
00:50:55,589 --> 00:50:52,720
in scantily clad clothing performing

1390
00:50:58,630 --> 00:50:55,599
bdsm

1391
00:51:00,470 --> 00:50:58,640
it's it's such a devaluing of what it is

1392
00:51:02,790 --> 00:51:00,480
it's such a

1393
00:51:04,309 --> 00:51:02,800
purposeful devaluing of what it is and i

1394
00:51:10,390 --> 00:51:04,319
see that in matt dillahunty's

1395
00:51:21,349 --> 00:51:11,589
anyway

1396
00:51:24,630 --> 00:51:23,030
i think that to believe that any human

1397
00:51:27,270 --> 00:51:24,640
is above you

1398
00:51:29,109 --> 00:51:27,280
or even below you is a sin i think that

1399
00:51:31,190 --> 00:51:29,119
to compare yourself to anyone in terms

1400
00:51:33,109 --> 00:51:31,200
of worth is a sin i think that for you

1401
00:51:34,710 --> 00:51:33,119
to think of yourself as more moral than

1402
00:51:36,950 --> 00:51:34,720
someone else is a sin

1403
00:51:38,470 --> 00:51:36,960
or even conversely then the converse has

1404
00:51:40,549 --> 00:51:38,480
to be the case that for you to think of

1405
00:51:41,910 --> 00:51:40,559
yourself as less moral is is a sin

1406
00:51:43,510 --> 00:51:41,920
though that one might

1407
00:51:44,950 --> 00:51:43,520
that one might be a lesser sin in the

1408
00:51:46,390 --> 00:51:44,960
christian doctrine there's a huge

1409
00:51:48,150 --> 00:51:46,400
emphasis and i'm sorry in the

1410
00:51:49,750 --> 00:51:48,160
judeo-christian doctrine there's a huge

1411
00:51:52,230 --> 00:51:49,760
emphasis that there's a nugget of

1412
00:51:54,069 --> 00:51:52,240
divinity at the core of each person and

1413
00:51:57,589 --> 00:51:54,079
that they're all equally

1414
00:51:59,910 --> 00:51:57,599
they're all equally inviolable

1415
00:52:02,230 --> 00:51:59,920
which means that

1416
00:52:04,950 --> 00:52:02,240
you are of no less worth than jeff

1417
00:52:07,030 --> 00:52:04,960
basil's now see this is

1418
00:52:09,990 --> 00:52:07,040
this is what materialism

1419
00:52:12,069 --> 00:52:10,000
does materialism is

1420
00:52:13,750 --> 00:52:12,079
the philosophy as well as the as well as

1421
00:52:14,950 --> 00:52:13,760
being materialistic but let's talk about

1422
00:52:16,790 --> 00:52:14,960
the philosophy

1423
00:52:18,390 --> 00:52:16,800
if you just look at the world through a

1424
00:52:21,030 --> 00:52:18,400
material

1425
00:52:22,390 --> 00:52:21,040
lens then jeff bezos is better than you

1426
00:52:23,750 --> 00:52:22,400
in some way because yes he has more

1427
00:52:25,430 --> 00:52:23,760
power and more money

1428
00:52:26,549 --> 00:52:25,440
but then that to me demonstrates the

1429
00:52:27,829 --> 00:52:26,559
lack

1430
00:52:36,390 --> 00:52:27,839
that demonstrates to me that there's

1431
00:52:42,069 --> 00:52:38,950
see in christianity there's the cross

1432
00:52:43,349 --> 00:52:42,079
and i always wonder if one it symbolizes

1433
00:52:45,190 --> 00:52:43,359
quite a few

1434
00:52:47,430 --> 00:52:45,200
symbols are interesting because symbols

1435
00:52:49,190 --> 00:52:47,440
take into account maybe 100 phenomenon

1436
00:52:50,549 --> 00:52:49,200
and put it into one so this is just one

1437
00:52:51,430 --> 00:52:50,559
interpretation but i've always wondered

1438
00:52:52,870 --> 00:52:51,440
if

1439
00:52:54,630 --> 00:52:52,880
this level

1440
00:52:56,870 --> 00:52:54,640
the horizontal

1441
00:52:58,950 --> 00:52:56,880
sorry if i keep biting my mouth it's

1442
00:53:01,270 --> 00:52:58,960
because like i said i didn't sleep much

1443
00:53:03,190 --> 00:53:01,280
and my didn't drink enough water and so

1444
00:53:07,990 --> 00:53:03,200
my lips are dry

1445
00:53:11,349 --> 00:53:09,349
and

1446
00:53:14,309 --> 00:53:11,359
the vertical maybe the spiritual

1447
00:53:16,150 --> 00:53:14,319
what it's saying is the spiritual the

1448
00:53:17,510 --> 00:53:16,160
material matters but also the spiritual

1449
00:53:19,910 --> 00:53:17,520
and it's where they intersect that

1450
00:53:21,670 --> 00:53:19,920
matters most and what's interesting is

1451
00:53:23,670 --> 00:53:21,680
in the cross

1452
00:53:24,630 --> 00:53:23,680
not in the olden days they were even but

1453
00:53:26,710 --> 00:53:24,640
now

1454
00:53:28,470 --> 00:53:26,720
you see the the material level as being

1455
00:53:30,069 --> 00:53:28,480
slightly higher what that means is that

1456
00:53:32,230 --> 00:53:30,079
this

1457
00:53:34,630 --> 00:53:32,240
the spiritual matters more

1458
00:53:37,430 --> 00:53:34,640
because it's higher on the spiritual

1459
00:53:41,109 --> 00:53:39,109
i think it's a sin to think of the world

1460
00:53:44,870 --> 00:53:41,119
only through a materialistic sin sense

1461
00:53:52,309 --> 00:53:46,870
but this is this is a tough question

1462
00:53:55,349 --> 00:53:53,910
in some sense all that matters is that

1463
00:53:56,710 --> 00:53:55,359
you're swimming you're swimming upwards

1464
00:53:58,549 --> 00:53:56,720
to go back to my

1465
00:54:00,150 --> 00:53:58,559
analogy of the diver

1466
00:54:02,390 --> 00:54:00,160
i think all that matters is that you're

1467
00:54:03,990 --> 00:54:02,400
swimming upward and you're trying to try

1468
00:54:05,589 --> 00:54:04,000
to swim upwards and make sure that each

1469
00:54:07,270 --> 00:54:05,599
day you can see yourself

1470
00:54:08,950 --> 00:54:07,280
as farther along than you were before

1471
00:54:11,030 --> 00:54:08,960
and that's easy absolutely easy for

1472
00:54:13,510 --> 00:54:11,040
anyone for me to say especially because

1473
00:54:16,230 --> 00:54:13,520
like i mentioned i have such i'm so

1474
00:54:18,309 --> 00:54:16,240
lucky with what i have and i'm in a

1475
00:54:20,950 --> 00:54:18,319
fantastic place in my life

1476
00:54:22,630 --> 00:54:20,960
and i know that if when i was depressed

1477
00:54:24,549 --> 00:54:22,640
which

1478
00:54:27,430 --> 00:54:24,559
i can get to a little bit about here if

1479
00:54:29,750 --> 00:54:27,440
you like philip this may

1480
00:54:32,230 --> 00:54:29,760
interest you

1481
00:54:33,829 --> 00:54:32,240
when i was 18 until maybe 26 or so i was

1482
00:54:36,950 --> 00:54:33,839
extremely extremely depressed even

1483
00:54:38,870 --> 00:54:36,960
suicidal i was so depressed

1484
00:54:44,230 --> 00:54:38,880
depressed from indolence from my own

1485
00:54:49,750 --> 00:54:45,670
but i was

1486
00:54:52,390 --> 00:54:51,109
enumerated the different ways that i

1487
00:54:56,150 --> 00:54:52,400
could commit suicide in the pros and

1488
00:55:01,349 --> 00:54:58,870
i lost many years of university to it i

1489
00:55:03,510 --> 00:55:01,359
got literal zeros in my classes because

1490
00:55:06,150 --> 00:55:03,520
i just didn't show up literal zeros my

1491
00:55:07,670 --> 00:55:06,160
undergrad which should have taken me

1492
00:55:15,910 --> 00:55:07,680
three to four years to complete ended up

1493
00:55:19,109 --> 00:55:17,750
it wasn't until i mean there are many

1494
00:55:20,870 --> 00:55:19,119
factors that got me out of it but one of

1495
00:55:24,789 --> 00:55:20,880
them was to

1496
00:55:28,789 --> 00:55:24,799
one of them was akin to self-development

1497
00:55:32,230 --> 00:55:30,230
i want to say not thinking of people as

1498
00:55:35,990 --> 00:55:32,240
better than myself but that's a human

1499
00:55:37,990 --> 00:55:36,000
quality i don't know of anyone who

1500
00:55:39,670 --> 00:55:38,000
some people will say yeah hey like i

1501
00:55:41,589 --> 00:55:39,680
don't think of this person as above me

1502
00:55:43,510 --> 00:55:41,599
or this person is below me but i'm

1503
00:55:45,589 --> 00:55:43,520
pretty sure that they are just unaware

1504
00:55:47,510 --> 00:55:45,599
of their own unconscious attitudes but

1505
00:55:49,109 --> 00:55:47,520
you can mitigate it

1506
00:55:51,829 --> 00:55:49,119
i think our society has done a huge

1507
00:55:54,710 --> 00:55:51,839
disservice with its emphasis on dating

1508
00:55:57,829 --> 00:55:54,720
dating people over and over and

1509
00:56:00,150 --> 00:55:57,839
i think that there's a profound

1510
00:56:02,470 --> 00:56:00,160
a profoundness to finding

1511
00:56:05,030 --> 00:56:02,480
one person one person and devoting

1512
00:56:07,030 --> 00:56:05,040
yourself to that person loyalty

1513
00:56:08,870 --> 00:56:07,040
and and loving saying i'm never leaving

1514
00:56:10,710 --> 00:56:08,880
you never never never never leaving you

1515
00:56:13,349 --> 00:56:10,720
no matter what i'm choosing you no

1516
00:56:15,030 --> 00:56:13,359
matter what no matter

1517
00:56:17,430 --> 00:56:15,040
no matter what other temptations there

1518
00:56:19,510 --> 00:56:17,440
are i choose you i choose you and then

1519
00:56:28,829 --> 00:56:19,520
that

1520
00:56:36,150 --> 00:56:31,910
because life is such a harsh

1521
00:56:37,589 --> 00:56:36,160
harsh harsh game it's such a harsh game

1522
00:56:39,430 --> 00:56:37,599
and if you can say

1523
00:56:41,670 --> 00:56:39,440
man it doesn't matter the world can be

1524
00:56:43,750 --> 00:56:41,680
against me the whole world can be

1525
00:56:45,430 --> 00:56:43,760
against me but if you're with me

1526
00:56:47,990 --> 00:56:45,440
then it's okay

1527
00:56:50,950 --> 00:56:48,000
as long as you're with me and i'm with

1528
00:56:52,789 --> 00:56:50,960
you it's okay

1529
00:56:54,549 --> 00:56:52,799
you also have to be close to god now god

1530
00:56:56,390 --> 00:56:54,559
can be whatever you

1531
00:56:59,510 --> 00:56:56,400
conceptualize it to be the universe or

1532
00:57:02,230 --> 00:56:59,520
so on i mean it then becomes so diluted

1533
00:57:03,670 --> 00:57:02,240
that it becomes meaningless but

1534
00:57:06,470 --> 00:57:03,680
what happens if some if you lose your

1535
00:57:07,750 --> 00:57:06,480
partner right then you've lost your only

1536
00:57:10,789 --> 00:57:07,760
hope so that means you have to have

1537
00:57:12,630 --> 00:57:10,799
something aside outside your partner

1538
00:57:14,150 --> 00:57:12,640
and that's why it's important that in a

1539
00:57:19,510 --> 00:57:14,160
marriage

1540
00:57:21,270 --> 00:57:19,520
god because god is

1541
00:57:23,430 --> 00:57:21,280
always going to be there at least that's

1542
00:57:24,870 --> 00:57:23,440
what it says in the judeo-christian

1543
00:57:25,990 --> 00:57:24,880
texts

1544
00:57:28,069 --> 00:57:26,000
you have to have something that will

1545
00:57:30,150 --> 00:57:28,079
always be there so at least you can

1546
00:57:32,069 --> 00:57:30,160
always have god you have to always have

1547
00:57:34,230 --> 00:57:32,079
something always have your family let's

1548
00:57:36,230 --> 00:57:34,240
say so that the world can be against you

1549
00:57:38,789 --> 00:57:36,240
but you have them and that's all that

1550
00:57:39,589 --> 00:57:38,799
matters and i think that our society has

1551
00:57:41,430 --> 00:57:39,599
done

1552
00:57:44,069 --> 00:57:41,440
such a disservice by telling people that

1553
00:57:45,750 --> 00:57:44,079
what matters is for you to date and see

1554
00:57:48,069 --> 00:57:45,760
people and treat them and treat them

1555
00:57:49,349 --> 00:57:48,079
indispensably as if they're

1556
00:57:51,270 --> 00:57:49,359
as if they're

1557
00:57:59,750 --> 00:57:51,280
pieces of clothing that you try on and

1558
00:58:03,910 --> 00:58:01,670
i think that's a horrible

1559
00:58:04,789 --> 00:58:03,920
i think that's a and i'm i'm saying this

1560
00:58:06,630 --> 00:58:04,799
because

1561
00:58:08,630 --> 00:58:06,640
there were years where i flandered and

1562
00:58:10,470 --> 00:58:08,640
was a lothario

1563
00:58:12,789 --> 00:58:10,480
let's say

1564
00:58:18,950 --> 00:58:12,799
indiscriminately seducing women

1565
00:58:22,710 --> 00:58:21,190
and it's not it's not fun for you to

1566
00:58:24,230 --> 00:58:22,720
look at your and i know this from

1567
00:58:25,270 --> 00:58:24,240
talking to people no matter what

1568
00:58:27,109 --> 00:58:25,280
whenever you're in a committed

1569
00:58:28,309 --> 00:58:27,119
relationship with whatever whoever it is

1570
00:58:34,470 --> 00:58:28,319
you're

1571
00:58:36,549 --> 00:58:34,480
and they're hurt by yours

1572
00:58:39,430 --> 00:58:36,559
it's not good

1573
00:58:46,069 --> 00:58:42,069
so i'd say stick to your

1574
00:58:48,950 --> 00:58:47,589
stick to your conscience don't violate

1575
00:58:50,710 --> 00:58:48,960
your conscience never violate your

1576
00:58:52,390 --> 00:58:50,720
conscience stick by someone never

1577
00:58:54,069 --> 00:58:52,400
violate them never violate them and

1578
00:58:57,829 --> 00:58:54,079
that's all that matters and swim up

1579
00:59:01,510 --> 00:58:59,829
jim carrey said that

1580
00:59:03,589 --> 00:59:01,520
he wishes everyone had 15 minutes of

1581
00:59:04,390 --> 00:59:03,599
fame because they would see how futile

1582
00:59:06,470 --> 00:59:04,400
it is now

1583
00:59:10,630 --> 00:59:06,480
that may be easy for him to say because

1584
00:59:14,230 --> 00:59:12,309
but wouldn't it be a shame that

1585
00:59:16,150 --> 00:59:14,240
wouldn't it be a shame if you were led

1586
00:59:22,150 --> 00:59:16,160
by something false simply because you

1587
00:59:25,510 --> 00:59:24,069
so have a goal keep moving up the world

1588
00:59:27,270 --> 00:59:25,520
can be against you as long as you have

1589
00:59:28,470 --> 00:59:27,280
your loved ones and conversely look you

1590
00:59:30,069 --> 00:59:28,480
can have the world but not have your

1591
00:59:32,150 --> 00:59:30,079
loved ones and it's a horrible life it's

1592
00:59:34,150 --> 00:59:32,160
a meaningless one so that's not where

1593
00:59:37,589 --> 00:59:34,160
the meaning is and move toward where the

1594
00:59:41,910 --> 00:59:39,829
finn says appreciate your videos

1595
00:59:44,789 --> 00:59:41,920
what is in your opinion the most suited

1596
00:59:46,069 --> 00:59:44,799
sentence to describe consciousness

1597
00:59:47,750 --> 00:59:46,079
i i don't know how to describe

1598
00:59:49,510 --> 00:59:47,760
consciousness without automatically

1599
00:59:51,349 --> 00:59:49,520
assuming it so there's one which is

1600
00:59:53,030 --> 00:59:51,359
consciousness is awareness consciousness

1601
00:59:54,230 --> 00:59:53,040
is what it's like to be but then what is

1602
00:59:57,910 --> 00:59:54,240
to be

1603
01:00:01,109 --> 00:59:59,030
who knows

1604
01:00:04,470 --> 01:00:01,119
da stell maine wants to know do you

1605
01:00:06,230 --> 01:00:04,480
think string theory is wrong

1606
01:00:09,030 --> 01:00:06,240
i think string theory may actually be

1607
01:00:11,829 --> 01:00:09,040
correct in a strange manner

1608
01:00:13,910 --> 01:00:11,839
for example i was talking with a

1609
01:00:16,390 --> 01:00:13,920
a professor or a former professor of

1610
01:00:17,990 --> 01:00:16,400
mathematics about

1611
01:00:20,230 --> 01:00:18,000
eric weinstein's

1612
01:00:21,589 --> 01:00:20,240
geometric unity as well as the monster

1613
01:00:24,470 --> 01:00:21,599
group which seems like it has nothing to

1614
01:00:26,549 --> 01:00:24,480
do with geometric unity but

1615
01:00:29,510 --> 01:00:26,559
there is a way to unify geometric unity

1616
01:00:31,270 --> 01:00:29,520
string theory as well as lisi's e8 via

1617
01:00:34,870 --> 01:00:31,280
the monster group and strings more

1618
01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:37,829
so

1619
01:00:41,349 --> 01:00:39,990
i don't i don't know i don't know i'm

1620
01:00:43,910 --> 01:00:41,359
not one of those people like sabine

1621
01:00:45,670 --> 01:00:43,920
hostenfelder who make their abhorrence

1622
01:00:47,670 --> 01:00:45,680
of string theory known and develop a

1623
01:00:49,190 --> 01:00:47,680
following because of it

1624
01:00:50,470 --> 01:00:49,200
i don't know if string theory is correct

1625
01:00:52,230 --> 01:00:50,480
i used to be

1626
01:00:53,829 --> 01:00:52,240
somewhat of an arrogant little teenager

1627
01:00:55,750 --> 01:00:53,839
who barely understood string theory at

1628
01:00:57,829 --> 01:00:55,760
the time and would say yeah string

1629
01:00:59,829 --> 01:00:57,839
theory is foolish but

1630
01:01:01,750 --> 01:00:59,839
i'm not like that anymore okay frederick

1631
01:01:03,510 --> 01:01:01,760
guigui wants to know he just says ama

1632
01:01:05,589 --> 01:01:03,520
with robert sapolsky so i'm working on

1633
01:01:07,030 --> 01:01:05,599
it frederick

1634
01:01:08,549 --> 01:01:07,040
game changer says should one go against

1635
01:01:11,109 --> 01:01:08,559
his belief in order to not risk his own

1636
01:01:13,030 --> 01:01:11,119
financial security well-being and when

1637
01:01:14,870 --> 01:01:13,040
does persuasion become manipulation if

1638
01:01:16,630 --> 01:01:14,880
the intent is never selfish or bad

1639
01:01:18,870 --> 01:01:16,640
please watch your health and make sure

1640
01:01:20,950 --> 01:01:18,880
you get enough sleep and do not stress

1641
01:01:23,109 --> 01:01:20,960
even if the quality suffers the fastest

1642
01:01:24,870 --> 01:01:23,119
tortoise wins sending you lots of love

1643
01:01:26,789 --> 01:01:24,880
and then there's a couple emoticons okay

1644
01:01:28,870 --> 01:01:26,799
so the question is should you risk

1645
01:01:29,990 --> 01:01:28,880
financial insecurity in order to retain

1646
01:01:32,230 --> 01:01:30,000
your beliefs

1647
01:01:33,510 --> 01:01:32,240
well

1648
01:01:35,750 --> 01:01:33,520
i would say never violate your

1649
01:01:37,349 --> 01:01:35,760
conscience never never never always do

1650
01:01:39,030 --> 01:01:37,359
what you believe is right never lie

1651
01:01:40,630 --> 01:01:39,040
never never never lies especially in the

1652
01:01:42,470 --> 01:01:40,640
small cases especially in the small

1653
01:01:44,870 --> 01:01:42,480
cases because they're the easiest to lie

1654
01:01:47,990 --> 01:01:46,630
there's a time that i was

1655
01:01:49,829 --> 01:01:48,000
when i was doing videography there was a

1656
01:01:51,270 --> 01:01:49,839
client who said and i'm making up some

1657
01:01:53,510 --> 01:01:51,280
numbers but let's say he said we agreed

1658
01:01:54,390 --> 01:01:53,520
upon fifty two hundred dollars for a

1659
01:01:56,150 --> 01:01:54,400
video

1660
01:01:57,670 --> 01:01:56,160
so he said and this was over the phone

1661
01:02:00,789 --> 01:01:57,680
and he's like horse

1662
01:02:02,549 --> 01:02:00,799
video call whatever 5200 i said okay a

1663
01:02:04,390 --> 01:02:02,559
day later he said hey kurt what was that

1664
01:02:06,950 --> 01:02:04,400
number that i that you quoted me again

1665
01:02:07,829 --> 01:02:06,960
or that we agreed upon now there's one

1666
01:02:11,349 --> 01:02:07,839
option

1667
01:02:13,750 --> 01:02:11,359
that he was lying and

1668
01:02:15,750 --> 01:02:13,760
testing me but i didn't get that feeling

1669
01:02:17,670 --> 01:02:15,760
and let's assume it's not

1670
01:02:19,349 --> 01:02:17,680
i remember debating for an almost an

1671
01:02:21,589 --> 01:02:19,359
entire day

1672
01:02:23,510 --> 01:02:21,599
should i tell him 5400

1673
01:02:27,270 --> 01:02:23,520
because he doesn't remember and he has

1674
01:02:28,470 --> 01:02:27,280
he's he's a million a multi-millionaire

1675
01:02:31,670 --> 01:02:28,480
then i thought about it i thought about

1676
01:02:33,109 --> 01:02:31,680
it i thought about it and i thought

1677
01:02:34,950 --> 01:02:33,119
don't violate your conscience for two

1678
01:02:37,109 --> 01:02:34,960
hundred dollars kurt

1679
01:02:45,670 --> 01:02:37,119
don't corrupt your soul for two hundred

1680
01:02:49,270 --> 01:02:47,589
if the money is large it's easier to not

1681
01:02:51,349 --> 01:02:49,280
corrupt yourself because you can always

1682
01:02:52,630 --> 01:02:51,359
say to yourself well i can't ask for ten

1683
01:02:54,230 --> 01:02:52,640
thousand dollars extra because one

1684
01:02:55,589 --> 01:02:54,240
they'll find out but two maybe someone

1685
01:02:57,510 --> 01:02:55,599
else needs it and so on so it's the

1686
01:02:59,589 --> 01:02:57,520
small cases that matter because they're

1687
01:03:01,109 --> 01:02:59,599
harder the small cases are so minor as

1688
01:03:03,750 --> 01:03:01,119
to merit disregard

1689
01:03:05,670 --> 01:03:03,760
but you can't disregard

1690
01:03:08,950 --> 01:03:05,680
the blemishes on your soul and they

1691
01:03:13,190 --> 01:03:11,430
they often

1692
01:03:21,349 --> 01:03:13,200
require

1693
01:03:25,430 --> 01:03:23,190
keep in mind jesus didn't have financial

1694
01:03:26,789 --> 01:03:25,440
security by the way jesus didn't have fu

1695
01:03:28,470 --> 01:03:26,799
money and he still lived right same with

1696
01:03:31,670 --> 01:03:28,480
moses in fact moses i believe gave up

1697
01:03:32,950 --> 01:03:31,680
few money so it's a bit ridiculous when

1698
01:03:35,270 --> 01:03:32,960
i hear people say that what you need is

1699
01:03:36,390 --> 01:03:35,280
fu money no what you need is

1700
01:03:38,710 --> 01:03:36,400
principles

1701
01:03:40,230 --> 01:03:38,720
and you need to stick by them so it's

1702
01:03:41,589 --> 01:03:40,240
easy to be courageous when you have

1703
01:03:42,950 --> 01:03:41,599
tenure

1704
01:03:45,190 --> 01:03:42,960
in fact that's not courage it's

1705
01:03:46,549 --> 01:03:45,200
courageous to have to stand up for what

1706
01:03:49,510 --> 01:03:46,559
you believe in despite not having the

1707
01:03:52,870 --> 01:03:51,190
in fact just so you know i left the

1708
01:03:54,150 --> 01:03:52,880
field of marketing i used to be a

1709
01:03:55,589 --> 01:03:54,160
marketer

1710
01:03:57,670 --> 01:03:55,599
i left the field of marketing

1711
01:03:59,430 --> 01:03:57,680
specifically because of this

1712
01:04:00,950 --> 01:03:59,440
i don't think it's ethical i think most

1713
01:04:02,630 --> 01:04:00,960
of marketing is unethical and i think

1714
01:04:04,630 --> 01:04:02,640
the people who are marketers know this

1715
01:04:05,990 --> 01:04:04,640
and they have to couch what they do in

1716
01:04:06,870 --> 01:04:06,000
language that

1717
01:04:08,950 --> 01:04:06,880
is so

1718
01:04:10,470 --> 01:04:08,960
self-deluded like value i'm adding value

1719
01:04:12,789 --> 01:04:10,480
adding you'll hear this over and over

1720
01:04:14,309 --> 01:04:12,799
this tony robbins-esque rhetoric that i

1721
01:04:15,829 --> 01:04:14,319
was wholly

1722
01:04:17,829 --> 01:04:15,839
supporting and a part of and

1723
01:04:19,589 --> 01:04:17,839
indoctrinated in although i wouldn't say

1724
01:04:21,670 --> 01:04:19,599
indoctrinated because i i allowed it to

1725
01:04:23,190 --> 01:04:21,680
take place as for the

1726
01:04:24,710 --> 01:04:23,200
persuasion and manipulation question i

1727
01:04:28,710 --> 01:04:24,720
would say

1728
01:04:30,390 --> 01:04:28,720
lay the truth out as best you can

1729
01:04:31,829 --> 01:04:30,400
and allow

1730
01:04:33,990 --> 01:04:31,839
whatever

1731
01:04:35,990 --> 01:04:34,000
occurs to occur

1732
01:04:37,670 --> 01:04:36,000
don't try to persuade anyone of anything

1733
01:04:39,029 --> 01:04:37,680
see this is extremely difficult because

1734
01:04:41,829 --> 01:04:39,039
there are some people who come to me for

1735
01:04:43,109 --> 01:04:41,839
advice personal people

1736
01:04:44,309 --> 01:04:43,119
and

1737
01:04:46,549 --> 01:04:44,319
they're so personal that i actually have

1738
01:04:49,270 --> 01:04:46,559
a stake in which way it goes

1739
01:04:51,349 --> 01:04:49,280
and i wanted

1740
01:04:52,950 --> 01:04:51,359
i used to do so much influencing that i

1741
01:04:54,549 --> 01:04:52,960
feel like i know the set of words that i

1742
01:04:55,990 --> 01:04:54,559
could say such that they would then

1743
01:04:57,589 --> 01:04:56,000
choose one outcome over the other but

1744
01:04:59,270 --> 01:04:57,599
then i have to tell myself that i don't

1745
01:05:01,510 --> 01:04:59,280
know what's best and they have i have to

1746
01:05:02,950 --> 01:05:01,520
just say what i think is true and listen

1747
01:05:04,950 --> 01:05:02,960
to them and let them come to their own

1748
01:05:06,470 --> 01:05:04,960
conclusions so that's another reason why

1749
01:05:08,069 --> 01:05:06,480
when i'm being interviewed for the

1750
01:05:10,150 --> 01:05:08,079
documentary people ask what am i

1751
01:05:11,829 --> 01:05:10,160
advocating for i'm not advocating for

1752
01:05:13,510 --> 01:05:11,839
anything because

1753
01:05:15,829 --> 01:05:13,520
i'm not trying to convince anyone of

1754
01:05:17,829 --> 01:05:15,839
anything i i don't think that's a

1755
01:05:19,910 --> 01:05:17,839
a great way to operate i think you

1756
01:05:21,829 --> 01:05:19,920
should just say what you think

1757
01:05:23,270 --> 01:05:21,839
and then let people incorporate that and

1758
01:05:24,789 --> 01:05:23,280
then they contribute some and then you

1759
01:05:28,309 --> 01:05:24,799
take some of that

1760
01:05:31,349 --> 01:05:29,750
to advocate implies that you already

1761
01:05:36,390 --> 01:05:31,359
know the answer and that you know what's

1762
01:05:39,190 --> 01:05:37,589
that's why i would say that there's a

1763
01:05:40,870 --> 01:05:39,200
fine line between persuasion and

1764
01:05:41,750 --> 01:05:40,880
manipulation and i would advise against

1765
01:05:44,710 --> 01:05:41,760
it

1766
01:05:46,150 --> 01:05:44,720
don't breach a contract

1767
01:05:48,390 --> 01:05:46,160
with yourself or with god or with the

1768
01:05:52,870 --> 01:05:48,400
universe

1769
01:05:58,309 --> 01:05:54,950
okay and as for my health and my sleep

1770
01:06:02,069 --> 01:05:59,750
some of this takes quite a bit of work

1771
01:06:03,589 --> 01:06:02,079
and i often have to

1772
01:06:05,510 --> 01:06:03,599
sacrifice if i want to release with

1773
01:06:07,750 --> 01:06:05,520
quality frequently and grow this channel

1774
01:06:09,589 --> 01:06:07,760
it requires some amount of longanimity

1775
01:06:13,190 --> 01:06:09,599
which saps me of my

1776
01:06:14,710 --> 01:06:13,200
wall which which stops me slowly

1777
01:06:16,710 --> 01:06:14,720
but at some point soon i would like to

1778
01:06:17,910 --> 01:06:16,720
go on a one week full week vacation i

1779
01:06:19,510 --> 01:06:17,920
would love that that would be great my

1780
01:06:20,950 --> 01:06:19,520
wife would also love that would i

1781
01:06:23,349 --> 01:06:20,960
consider doing an interview with stephen

1782
01:06:25,829 --> 01:06:23,359
wolf from frederick yes i'm working on

1783
01:06:27,349 --> 01:06:25,839
it steven's steven's entire theory may

1784
01:06:28,870 --> 01:06:27,359
take two months

1785
01:06:31,829 --> 01:06:28,880
of work

1786
01:06:33,109 --> 01:06:31,839
jim carrey is crazy

1787
01:06:34,789 --> 01:06:33,119
i don't think you should i know you're

1788
01:06:36,390 --> 01:06:34,799
saying that somewhat flippantly and

1789
01:06:38,470 --> 01:06:36,400
frivolously but this is something else

1790
01:06:40,230 --> 01:06:38,480
that i feel adamantly about i don't like

1791
01:06:41,990 --> 01:06:40,240
i don't like to dismiss anyone as stupid

1792
01:06:43,670 --> 01:06:42,000
i don't like to dismiss anyone as crazy

1793
01:06:47,109 --> 01:06:43,680
i actually have an

1794
01:06:49,190 --> 01:06:47,119
adverse reaction to that one because

1795
01:06:51,109 --> 01:06:49,200
to be crazy is actually it's not

1796
01:06:53,109 --> 01:06:51,119
pleasant it's a and

1797
01:06:54,710 --> 01:06:53,119
and i also have an intimation that some

1798
01:06:57,510 --> 01:06:54,720
of what we think of as crazy people may

1799
01:06:58,950 --> 01:06:57,520
be on to something that's so

1800
01:07:00,309 --> 01:06:58,960
that's truthful that's so outside our

1801
01:07:02,549 --> 01:07:00,319
worldview that we consider them to be

1802
01:07:04,789 --> 01:07:02,559
crazy

1803
01:07:07,990 --> 01:07:04,799
i know so i i don't like this dismissal

1804
01:07:10,150 --> 01:07:08,000
of people by labeling them as crazy

1805
01:07:12,069 --> 01:07:10,160
this could be interesting you said

1806
01:07:14,950 --> 01:07:12,079
paul vander clay talked about fu money

1807
01:07:16,390 --> 01:07:14,960
and jesus

1808
01:07:18,309 --> 01:07:16,400
mm-hmm

1809
01:07:20,630 --> 01:07:18,319
yeah well i did talk to paul vander clay

1810
01:07:22,549 --> 01:07:20,640
it's on this channel

1811
01:07:23,990 --> 01:07:22,559
okay getting back game changer says what

1812
01:07:25,430 --> 01:07:24,000
drives you to find a toe and how much do

1813
01:07:27,029 --> 01:07:25,440
you entertain that a toe can be found in

1814
01:07:28,390 --> 01:07:27,039
this universe because if this universe

1815
01:07:30,789 --> 01:07:28,400
came from another one where there was a

1816
01:07:32,789 --> 01:07:30,799
singularity then how can we find a toe

1817
01:07:34,069 --> 01:07:32,799
well okay the what drives me to find a

1818
01:07:35,510 --> 01:07:34,079
toe is the same reason that drives

1819
01:07:36,789 --> 01:07:35,520
people to understand god or to

1820
01:07:38,069 --> 01:07:36,799
understand their place in the universe

1821
01:07:40,230 --> 01:07:38,079
or their purpose or where they're going

1822
01:07:41,990 --> 01:07:40,240
or their origins and i also happen to

1823
01:07:43,349 --> 01:07:42,000
like puzzles and i can't conceive of a

1824
01:07:45,270 --> 01:07:43,359
greater puzzle than this i mean the

1825
01:07:46,549 --> 01:07:45,280
riemann hypothesis is interesting when i

1826
01:07:47,270 --> 01:07:46,559
was 16 i thought that that's what i

1827
01:07:48,950 --> 01:07:47,280
would

1828
01:07:51,750 --> 01:07:48,960
go into university

1829
01:07:53,589 --> 01:07:51,760
solving geoffrey gefari says if i were

1830
01:07:55,750 --> 01:07:53,599
to suggest maybe make the transition

1831
01:07:57,829 --> 01:07:55,760
between each question a bit smoother so

1832
01:07:59,910 --> 01:07:57,839
that the guest can connect one answer

1833
01:08:01,589 --> 01:07:59,920
from another

1834
01:08:02,710 --> 01:08:01,599
this is not a question it's almost a

1835
01:08:04,309 --> 01:08:02,720
critique

1836
01:08:05,990 --> 01:08:04,319
but it's one that i hear brought up

1837
01:08:07,589 --> 01:08:06,000
quite frequently

1838
01:08:08,549 --> 01:08:07,599
so i thought i'd address it

1839
01:08:10,549 --> 01:08:08,559
see

1840
01:08:12,309 --> 01:08:10,559
this is almost a question about

1841
01:08:14,069 --> 01:08:12,319
my interview style to the degree that i

1842
01:08:15,109 --> 01:08:14,079
have one i always i'm surprised when

1843
01:08:16,070 --> 01:08:15,119
people say

1844
01:08:21,349 --> 01:08:16,080
that they

1845
01:08:22,950 --> 01:08:21,359
no one is at least that abrupt to say i

1846
01:08:25,349 --> 01:08:22,960
hate your interview style so i mainly

1847
01:08:26,630 --> 01:08:25,359
get compliments but i'm sure

1848
01:08:27,910 --> 01:08:26,640
they do and they just don't leave

1849
01:08:30,470 --> 01:08:27,920
comments because they're actually nice

1850
01:08:31,669 --> 01:08:30,480
people and don't want to be rude

1851
01:08:32,870 --> 01:08:31,679
but either way i'm always surprised i'm

1852
01:08:35,030 --> 01:08:32,880
like i don't have a style i don't see

1853
01:08:36,550 --> 01:08:35,040
myself as having a particular style

1854
01:08:39,030 --> 01:08:36,560
once i was talking to desh who's the

1855
01:08:40,630 --> 01:08:39,040
producer of better left unsaid

1856
01:08:42,470 --> 01:08:40,640
one last promo for better left than said

1857
01:08:44,870 --> 01:08:42,480
it's a film that's releasing tomorrow i

1858
01:08:46,709 --> 01:08:44,880
directed it wrote it star in it it's

1859
01:08:48,870 --> 01:08:46,719
about when does the extreme left go what

1860
01:08:50,789 --> 01:08:48,880
constitutes the extreme left

1861
01:08:53,510 --> 01:08:50,799
politically speaking and you can see it

1862
01:08:55,269 --> 01:08:53,520
at better betterleftonsaidfilm.com

1863
01:08:57,110 --> 01:08:55,279
please buy it from there number one the

1864
01:08:57,910 --> 01:08:57,120
money goes more toward the filmmakers

1865
01:08:59,110 --> 01:08:57,920
than

1866
01:09:01,510 --> 01:08:59,120
if you were to get it from itunes

1867
01:09:03,030 --> 01:09:01,520
because they take a cut and number two

1868
01:09:04,470 --> 01:09:03,040
you get the director's version if you're

1869
01:09:06,149 --> 01:09:04,480
a fan of this channel you'll probably

1870
01:09:07,910 --> 01:09:06,159
like the director's version much more

1871
01:09:09,669 --> 01:09:07,920
okay so i was talking to desh

1872
01:09:12,070 --> 01:09:09,679
about one of my older videos it wasn't

1873
01:09:13,189 --> 01:09:12,080
doing too well i mean it had like

1874
01:09:15,829 --> 01:09:13,199
a 90

1875
01:09:18,470 --> 01:09:15,839
like ratio but that's actually low

1876
01:09:20,709 --> 01:09:18,480
it should be around 98 if you have a

1877
01:09:22,390 --> 01:09:20,719
decent following and so on

1878
01:09:24,390 --> 01:09:22,400
and i asked him was saying okay i'm

1879
01:09:25,510 --> 01:09:24,400
getting criticized and he said kurt it's

1880
01:09:26,870 --> 01:09:25,520
because you're mixing up different

1881
01:09:28,390 --> 01:09:26,880
interview styles

1882
01:09:29,829 --> 01:09:28,400
the audience doesn't know which frame to

1883
01:09:30,950 --> 01:09:29,839
interpret it's not the content itself

1884
01:09:32,390 --> 01:09:30,960
it's just that they don't know how to

1885
01:09:33,829 --> 01:09:32,400
interpret what you're doing so there's

1886
01:09:35,590 --> 01:09:33,839
three styles this is what desh was

1887
01:09:37,749 --> 01:09:35,600
telling me he said there's the joe rogan

1888
01:09:39,749 --> 01:09:37,759
conversational style of interview

1889
01:09:41,669 --> 01:09:39,759
there's the documentary style and that

1890
01:09:43,510 --> 01:09:41,679
documentary style is probably the one

1891
01:09:44,470 --> 01:09:43,520
that i had going in going into that

1892
01:09:46,070 --> 01:09:44,480
interview because it was for the

1893
01:09:47,910 --> 01:09:46,080
documentary and that one is where you

1894
01:09:49,749 --> 01:09:47,920
actually know the format of your

1895
01:09:51,430 --> 01:09:49,759
documentary and you're not trying to get

1896
01:09:53,110 --> 01:09:51,440
them to say a particular phrase but

1897
01:09:54,790 --> 01:09:53,120
you're trying to get them to say phrases

1898
01:09:57,510 --> 01:09:54,800
in a particular manner so that they're

1899
01:10:00,310 --> 01:09:57,520
easily editable and easily placeable in

1900
01:10:01,669 --> 01:10:00,320
the lacuna inside the editing

1901
01:10:03,510 --> 01:10:01,679
and then so there's the joe rogan

1902
01:10:04,870 --> 01:10:03,520
interview the documentary interview

1903
01:10:06,310 --> 01:10:04,880
and then there's the journalist type

1904
01:10:07,590 --> 01:10:06,320
interview and he said kurt you're mixing

1905
01:10:09,750 --> 01:10:07,600
up all three and people are getting

1906
01:10:12,550 --> 01:10:09,760
confused and then i said to him there's

1907
01:10:14,790 --> 01:10:12,560
a fourth that you're not considering

1908
01:10:16,630 --> 01:10:14,800
and that is office hours in fact i

1909
01:10:19,030 --> 01:10:16,640
wanted to rename this channel office

1910
01:10:20,310 --> 01:10:19,040
hours at one point because

1911
01:10:22,790 --> 01:10:20,320
in university there's something called

1912
01:10:24,390 --> 01:10:22,800
office hours where a professor just says

1913
01:10:25,510 --> 01:10:24,400
come in and ask me whatever you like you

1914
01:10:27,430 --> 01:10:25,520
have questions you have

1915
01:10:29,669 --> 01:10:27,440
misunderstandings and misapprehensions

1916
01:10:31,430 --> 01:10:29,679
come let's hammer them out that's what

1917
01:10:33,510 --> 01:10:31,440
theories of everything is it's office

1918
01:10:36,630 --> 01:10:33,520
hours i get this professor or this

1919
01:10:38,070 --> 01:10:36,640
luminary in for an hour to three hours

1920
01:10:39,510 --> 01:10:38,080
often i have questions i don't

1921
01:10:41,910 --> 01:10:39,520
understand particular aspects of their

1922
01:10:44,470 --> 01:10:41,920
theories so what i'm doing is i'm asking

1923
01:10:45,910 --> 01:10:44,480
them almost selfishly what i don't

1924
01:10:46,950 --> 01:10:45,920
understand and then the audience is

1925
01:10:49,270 --> 01:10:46,960
there

1926
01:10:51,030 --> 01:10:49,280
i'm almost indifferent to the audience i

1927
01:10:52,709 --> 01:10:51,040
know that sounds horrible but in a way

1928
01:10:54,790 --> 01:10:52,719
it's not because the audience tends to

1929
01:10:56,870 --> 01:10:54,800
be more engaged the more i'm engaged and

1930
01:10:59,350 --> 01:10:56,880
there's a facade of some people who ask

1931
01:11:00,550 --> 01:10:59,360
questions that they don't

1932
01:11:02,070 --> 01:11:00,560
care about

1933
01:11:03,430 --> 01:11:02,080
so i'm asking questions that i care

1934
01:11:05,270 --> 01:11:03,440
about and when

1935
01:11:07,110 --> 01:11:05,280
one gap has been filled then i just move

1936
01:11:08,630 --> 01:11:07,120
on to the next there's no need for me to

1937
01:11:10,390 --> 01:11:08,640
make a smooth transition because i don't

1938
01:11:12,790 --> 01:11:10,400
care about a smooth transition

1939
01:11:15,430 --> 01:11:12,800
i understand that the audience can often

1940
01:11:17,350 --> 01:11:15,440
feel disoriented but i'm also aware that

1941
01:11:20,390 --> 01:11:17,360
i have a fixed amount of time with the

1942
01:11:23,030 --> 01:11:20,400
person and this is primarily to

1943
01:11:24,870 --> 01:11:23,040
explicate toes this is about explicating

1944
01:11:27,110 --> 01:11:24,880
toes theories of everything

1945
01:11:29,590 --> 01:11:27,120
i want to make sure that this channel

1946
01:11:31,189 --> 01:11:29,600
gives some time to each potential theory

1947
01:11:33,110 --> 01:11:31,199
of everything when you talk to people

1948
01:11:34,470 --> 01:11:33,120
who say that they study theories of

1949
01:11:36,470 --> 01:11:34,480
everything

1950
01:11:38,310 --> 01:11:36,480
they actually don't and

1951
01:11:39,510 --> 01:11:38,320
the reason why i say that is that there

1952
01:11:42,550 --> 01:11:39,520
are maybe

1953
01:11:44,870 --> 01:11:42,560
30 to 50 academic toes and then

1954
01:11:47,030 --> 01:11:44,880
100 there are about 100 to 200

1955
01:11:49,350 --> 01:11:47,040
non-academic tools and when i

1956
01:11:50,470 --> 01:11:49,360
interview virtually every single person

1957
01:11:52,229 --> 01:11:50,480
and i ask them so what do you think

1958
01:11:53,590 --> 01:11:52,239
about this theory of everything or this

1959
01:11:54,790 --> 01:11:53,600
one or this one some of them they'll

1960
01:11:55,910 --> 01:11:54,800
know about and some of them they won't

1961
01:11:58,310 --> 01:11:55,920
have an opinion about because they've

1962
01:11:59,750 --> 01:11:58,320
never investigated it which to me how

1963
01:12:00,870 --> 01:11:59,760
can you claim that you have the correct

1964
01:12:02,070 --> 01:12:00,880
theory of everything if you haven't

1965
01:12:03,590 --> 01:12:02,080
conversed with the community and

1966
01:12:09,350 --> 01:12:03,600
understood what the options are the

1967
01:12:13,830 --> 01:12:11,189
it's not simple it's absolutely not

1968
01:12:17,910 --> 01:12:15,830
that's another reason why my interview

1969
01:12:19,750 --> 01:12:17,920
style if there's a style is that i get

1970
01:12:22,070 --> 01:12:19,760
into some of the academic

1971
01:12:24,870 --> 01:12:22,080
chaperone or the or the intricacies

1972
01:12:25,750 --> 01:12:24,880
because i need to mention what is so10

1973
01:12:27,189 --> 01:12:25,760
or

1974
01:12:29,270 --> 01:12:27,199
what is x-bar

1975
01:12:30,790 --> 01:12:29,280
structure in microtubules or sporadic

1976
01:12:31,990 --> 01:12:30,800
groups and so on

1977
01:12:33,750 --> 01:12:32,000
if this

1978
01:12:35,910 --> 01:12:33,760
podcast is geared towards solving a

1979
01:12:37,189 --> 01:12:35,920
problem which it is so if you are part

1980
01:12:38,390 --> 01:12:37,199
of this community

1981
01:12:39,830 --> 01:12:38,400
one of the ways that you can think about

1982
01:12:41,669 --> 01:12:39,840
this community to the degree there's a

1983
01:12:43,590 --> 01:12:41,679
community is that

1984
01:12:45,030 --> 01:12:43,600
what separates this podcast from others

1985
01:12:46,390 --> 01:12:45,040
is that other podcasts are mainly

1986
01:12:48,149 --> 01:12:46,400
conversational and they're just about

1987
01:12:50,310 --> 01:12:48,159
well i want to talk inspirational often

1988
01:12:51,510 --> 01:12:50,320
like tim ferriss and lex friedman

1989
01:12:53,430 --> 01:12:51,520
there's nothing wrong with them they're

1990
01:12:55,590 --> 01:12:53,440
brilliant brilliant of what they do i'm

1991
01:12:57,350 --> 01:12:55,600
not adept at what they do

1992
01:12:59,030 --> 01:12:57,360
but this is geared toward actually

1993
01:13:01,110 --> 01:12:59,040
solving a specific problem and the

1994
01:13:02,950 --> 01:13:01,120
problem of theories of everything so

1995
01:13:04,870 --> 01:13:02,960
that means there may be a final date to

1996
01:13:07,669 --> 01:13:04,880
it it may end in three years may end in

1997
01:13:09,990 --> 01:13:07,679
two years may end in ten years

1998
01:13:12,070 --> 01:13:10,000
there's a series my favorite series

1999
01:13:14,390 --> 01:13:12,080
that's a drama called breaking bad

2000
01:13:16,630 --> 01:13:14,400
one of the reasons it was so great

2001
01:13:19,990 --> 01:13:16,640
absolutely great was that they didn't

2002
01:13:22,870 --> 01:13:20,000
have it run past its prime

2003
01:13:23,590 --> 01:13:22,880
they had an end in mind from day one it

2004
01:13:26,470 --> 01:13:23,600
was

2005
01:13:29,030 --> 01:13:26,480
how do i get from here that is

2006
01:13:31,110 --> 01:13:29,040
i forget what vince gilligan called

2007
01:13:34,149 --> 01:13:31,120
walter white whatever some nerdy teacher

2008
01:13:37,510 --> 01:13:34,159
calling mr magoo to scarface that was

2009
01:13:39,510 --> 01:13:37,520
the journey so ours is unknown to

2010
01:13:41,510 --> 01:13:39,520
knowing or advancing a theory of

2011
01:13:43,669 --> 01:13:41,520
everything that's the goal

2012
01:13:45,030 --> 01:13:43,679
let's read some of the comments now

2013
01:13:48,070 --> 01:13:45,040
are you planning on getting your phd in

2014
01:13:48,870 --> 01:13:48,080
physics no no no no what i'm no there's

2015
01:13:53,350 --> 01:13:48,880
no

2016
01:13:54,870 --> 01:13:53,360
okay here's one reason if you could get

2017
01:13:56,310 --> 01:13:54,880
a phd in physics you have to solve a

2018
01:13:58,310 --> 01:13:56,320
particular problem and it has to be a

2019
01:13:59,990 --> 01:13:58,320
solvable problem this seems like an

2020
01:14:01,510 --> 01:14:00,000
intractable one you would not get

2021
01:14:02,790 --> 01:14:01,520
approved to be

2022
01:14:04,470 --> 01:14:02,800
you would not get approved if you said

2023
01:14:06,229 --> 01:14:04,480
what i want to do is survey the theories

2024
01:14:08,790 --> 01:14:06,239
of everything and make

2025
01:14:09,830 --> 01:14:08,800
an advance a potential new theory of

2026
01:14:11,270 --> 01:14:09,840
everything

2027
01:14:12,550 --> 01:14:11,280
that would not get any funding and

2028
01:14:14,310 --> 01:14:12,560
that's the way it works as well as you

2029
01:14:16,229 --> 01:14:14,320
have other departmental meetings when i

2030
01:14:18,310 --> 01:14:16,239
talked to i was talking to

2031
01:14:19,750 --> 01:14:18,320
jonathan gerrard of stephen wolfram

2032
01:14:22,390 --> 01:14:19,760
jonathan garage is a bright bright

2033
01:14:24,630 --> 01:14:22,400
bright fellow bright fellow

2034
01:14:25,830 --> 01:14:24,640
and he was saying i was telling him

2035
01:14:27,350 --> 01:14:25,840
we're just talking about what we do for

2036
01:14:29,510 --> 01:14:27,360
our days

2037
01:14:31,110 --> 01:14:29,520
he was saying well i had to do

2038
01:14:32,630 --> 01:14:31,120
so and so work and then i got to do some

2039
01:14:34,229 --> 01:14:32,640
research and i he asked me what i do and

2040
01:14:36,310 --> 01:14:34,239
i said pretty much i i researched all

2041
01:14:37,270 --> 01:14:36,320
day and he said that that's the dream

2042
01:14:38,070 --> 01:14:37,280
life

2043
01:14:40,470 --> 01:14:38,080
for

2044
01:14:41,510 --> 01:14:40,480
an academic research all day whatever

2045
01:14:44,229 --> 01:14:41,520
you want

2046
01:14:45,430 --> 01:14:44,239
so luckily luckily i'm so lucky that i

2047
01:14:47,270 --> 01:14:45,440
get to do that

2048
01:14:49,510 --> 01:14:47,280
do i plan to study physics in the future

2049
01:14:50,630 --> 01:14:49,520
i am studying physics

2050
01:14:53,590 --> 01:14:50,640
okay

2051
01:14:54,950 --> 01:14:53,600
thank you for calling me a hot man and a

2052
01:14:56,630 --> 01:14:54,960
and a

2053
01:14:58,310 --> 01:14:56,640
handsome man that's flattering i

2054
01:14:59,750 --> 01:14:58,320
appreciate that

2055
01:15:01,030 --> 01:14:59,760
have i grown more sympathetic to the

2056
01:15:02,310 --> 01:15:01,040
left after interviewing chomsky many

2057
01:15:04,470 --> 01:15:02,320
times grows more sympathetic to

2058
01:15:06,390 --> 01:15:04,480
virtually every side after interviewing

2059
01:15:07,990 --> 01:15:06,400
virtually every person i don't think

2060
01:15:09,750 --> 01:15:08,000
that one side see there's this phrase

2061
01:15:11,590 --> 01:15:09,760
that says

2062
01:15:13,590 --> 01:15:11,600
only the shallowest of mine can believe

2063
01:15:15,910 --> 01:15:13,600
that in great controversy one side is

2064
01:15:17,510 --> 01:15:15,920
mere folly and i tend to believe that i

2065
01:15:19,110 --> 01:15:17,520
don't think that the radical left quote

2066
01:15:20,790 --> 01:15:19,120
unquote is mere folly i don't think that

2067
01:15:22,149 --> 01:15:20,800
the alt right is mere folly as well

2068
01:15:23,750 --> 01:15:22,159
although that might get you banned for

2069
01:15:25,510 --> 01:15:23,760
saying i don't think that the

2070
01:15:26,950 --> 01:15:25,520
pro-socialists or the pro-capitalists

2071
01:15:28,390 --> 01:15:26,960
are mere folly

2072
01:15:29,830 --> 01:15:28,400
i think that many of them are misguided

2073
01:15:31,350 --> 01:15:29,840
i think that many of them are deluded i

2074
01:15:35,590 --> 01:15:31,360
think that many of them are

2075
01:15:38,790 --> 01:15:35,600
lazy thinkers let's say

2076
01:15:41,189 --> 01:15:38,800
but who among us

2077
01:15:42,470 --> 01:15:41,199
are not scythe b i'm trying to decipher

2078
01:15:44,149 --> 01:15:42,480
your question i always have a difficult

2079
01:15:46,709 --> 01:15:44,159
time so please rewrite that if you don't

2080
01:15:48,709 --> 01:15:46,719
mind because i have to read quickly as i

2081
01:15:50,390 --> 01:15:48,719
want to get through this fairly fast i'm

2082
01:15:52,390 --> 01:15:50,400
only halfway done and it's been an hour

2083
01:15:54,229 --> 01:15:52,400
and a half and i imagine that

2084
01:15:55,270 --> 01:15:54,239
i'm going to lose some subscribers for

2085
01:15:56,390 --> 01:15:55,280
this but hopefully the ones that i

2086
01:15:58,390 --> 01:15:56,400
retain are the ones that are more

2087
01:16:00,229 --> 01:15:58,400
interested in theories of everything

2088
01:16:02,470 --> 01:16:00,239
okay glxl says why haven't you

2089
01:16:04,870 --> 01:16:02,480
interviewed jason reza

2090
01:16:06,470 --> 01:16:04,880
jor johnny yet do it let me put some

2091
01:16:08,550 --> 01:16:06,480
emoticons

2092
01:16:10,470 --> 01:16:08,560
i don't know this person grizzgrem says

2093
01:16:12,870 --> 01:16:10,480
i'm a random troll on the internet with

2094
01:16:14,070 --> 01:16:12,880
the theory of everything do you

2095
01:16:16,950 --> 01:16:14,080
plan on branching out past the

2096
01:16:18,310 --> 01:16:16,960
respectable demographic on your show

2097
01:16:20,390 --> 01:16:18,320
what he's referring to is right now i'm

2098
01:16:22,310 --> 01:16:20,400
interviewing primarily academics though

2099
01:16:24,630 --> 01:16:22,320
thomas campbell isn't one and bernardo

2100
01:16:25,750 --> 01:16:24,640
castro isn't one the answer to this is

2101
01:16:27,910 --> 01:16:25,760
yes

2102
01:16:29,990 --> 01:16:27,920
i actually encourage people to send me

2103
01:16:31,590 --> 01:16:30,000
pdfs and if you don't know where to send

2104
01:16:33,830 --> 01:16:31,600
me email you can

2105
01:16:35,590 --> 01:16:33,840
send me at a tow that is t-o-e at

2106
01:16:37,669 --> 01:16:35,600
indiefilmto.com

2107
01:16:40,070 --> 01:16:37,679
that email address is also in

2108
01:16:41,669 --> 01:16:40,080
the about page of this channel i believe

2109
01:16:43,590 --> 01:16:41,679
send me it there what i would like to do

2110
01:16:45,430 --> 01:16:43,600
is get two people because i takes me

2111
01:16:46,390 --> 01:16:45,440
quite some time to go through an entire

2112
01:16:48,390 --> 01:16:46,400
toe

2113
01:16:50,390 --> 01:16:48,400
i want to get two people

2114
01:16:52,470 --> 01:16:50,400
non-academic toes let's say

2115
01:16:54,630 --> 01:16:52,480
and get them to agree that i'm going to

2116
01:16:56,630 --> 01:16:54,640
critique this person and and this

2117
01:16:57,750 --> 01:16:56,640
person's going to critique me and kurt

2118
01:16:59,030 --> 01:16:57,760
you can moderate it and we're going to

2119
01:17:00,149 --> 01:16:59,040
live stream that on the toe clippings

2120
01:17:02,149 --> 01:17:00,159
channel the reason is that i don't want

2121
01:17:05,030 --> 01:17:02,159
to dilute the density of material on

2122
01:17:07,750 --> 01:17:05,040
this channel and

2123
01:17:09,750 --> 01:17:07,760
at the same time i do want to give an

2124
01:17:15,189 --> 01:17:09,760
audience to the people who are more

2125
01:17:18,790 --> 01:17:17,270
griswold grim also says if your data

2126
01:17:20,390 --> 01:17:18,800
department reported all your interviews

2127
01:17:21,910 --> 01:17:20,400
and all the backups were lost which one

2128
01:17:24,310 --> 01:17:21,920
would you hope wasn't lost well i don't

2129
01:17:25,189 --> 01:17:24,320
know why if they reported it it was lost

2130
01:17:27,030 --> 01:17:25,199
but

2131
01:17:28,550 --> 01:17:27,040
let's just say was lost in the fire the

2132
01:17:30,709 --> 01:17:28,560
one that i would choose to be kept would

2133
01:17:32,310 --> 01:17:30,719
be bernardo castrops

2134
01:17:34,310 --> 01:17:32,320
any thoughts on chris langen's toe i'm

2135
01:17:36,149 --> 01:17:34,320
interviewing i mean yes i'm interviewing

2136
01:17:38,070 --> 01:17:36,159
him in late spring i believe or mid

2137
01:17:40,790 --> 01:17:38,080
spring

2138
01:17:42,070 --> 01:17:40,800
so watch out for that

2139
01:17:43,110 --> 01:17:42,080
what are your thoughts on wittgenstein's

2140
01:17:45,189 --> 01:17:43,120
ladder

2141
01:17:47,590 --> 01:17:45,199
the idea of propositions

2142
01:17:49,430 --> 01:17:47,600
that refute themselves

2143
01:17:50,870 --> 01:17:49,440
yeah yeah that was an interesting one he

2144
01:17:52,870 --> 01:17:50,880
said that

2145
01:17:55,830 --> 01:17:52,880
all of this was pretty much for you to

2146
01:18:02,390 --> 01:17:55,840
get up the ladder and then kick it away

2147
01:18:07,110 --> 01:18:03,990
see wittgenstein is a super interesting

2148
01:18:09,510 --> 01:18:07,120
individual because he's heralded by the

2149
01:18:10,709 --> 01:18:09,520
new atheist rationalists as being on

2150
01:18:14,390 --> 01:18:10,719
their side but

2151
01:18:17,430 --> 01:18:14,400
he adamantly was not he actually

2152
01:18:19,590 --> 01:18:17,440
i think norman malcolm said

2153
01:18:21,510 --> 01:18:19,600
the religiosity that characterized

2154
01:18:23,030 --> 01:18:21,520
wittgenstein's later life surpassed even

2155
01:18:23,990 --> 01:18:23,040
those who consider themselves to be

2156
01:18:26,310 --> 01:18:24,000
religious

2157
01:18:27,750 --> 01:18:26,320
and wittgenstein said that he only he

2158
01:18:29,830 --> 01:18:27,760
believes that his work is only worth it

2159
01:18:32,470 --> 01:18:29,840
if the light shines from on high as well

2160
01:18:34,470 --> 01:18:32,480
as he said about box phrase he said bach

2161
01:18:36,870 --> 01:18:34,480
said

2162
01:18:39,350 --> 01:18:36,880
to the glory of the most high and let my

2163
01:18:41,110 --> 01:18:39,360
neighbors be benefited thereby

2164
01:18:43,830 --> 01:18:41,120
the most high god that is and

2165
01:18:45,510 --> 01:18:43,840
wittgenstein said i wish that

2166
01:18:47,910 --> 01:18:45,520
that could be said about my work so

2167
01:18:50,070 --> 01:18:47,920
wittenstein was deeply religious in fact

2168
01:18:50,950 --> 01:18:50,080
he said part of his work well he didn't

2169
01:18:52,709 --> 01:18:50,960
say this

2170
01:18:54,310 --> 01:18:52,719
in this in these words but he said that

2171
01:18:55,990 --> 01:18:54,320
part of his work was that religious

2172
01:18:57,990 --> 01:18:56,000
experience and consciousness and quality

2173
01:19:00,470 --> 01:18:58,000
and so on are so

2174
01:19:02,229 --> 01:19:00,480
outside linguistic expression that you

2175
01:19:03,750 --> 01:19:02,239
it's better to be silent about them

2176
01:19:05,750 --> 01:19:03,760
because you reduce them you and you

2177
01:19:07,910 --> 01:19:05,760
cause a curtailment of them by

2178
01:19:09,270 --> 01:19:07,920
speaking about them hans frankfurt says

2179
01:19:11,110 --> 01:19:09,280
i'm 36 and i

2180
01:19:12,229 --> 01:19:11,120
can i still learn mathematics that's

2181
01:19:14,470 --> 01:19:12,239
advanced and contribute something

2182
01:19:16,229 --> 01:19:14,480
meaningful so i would say hans that it

2183
01:19:18,790 --> 01:19:16,239
depends on your

2184
01:19:20,790 --> 01:19:18,800
aciduity and your iq so that is your

2185
01:19:22,390 --> 01:19:20,800
diligence and your intellect and that

2186
01:19:23,910 --> 01:19:22,400
you have more of a chance of

2187
01:19:26,470 --> 01:19:23,920
understanding the mathematics than you

2188
01:19:28,390 --> 01:19:26,480
do have of contributing to mathematics

2189
01:19:29,669 --> 01:19:28,400
unless what you if all you're concerned

2190
01:19:32,390 --> 01:19:29,679
about is contributing then go into a

2191
01:19:33,189 --> 01:19:32,400
burgeoning field find a new field

2192
01:19:34,870 --> 01:19:33,199
where

2193
01:19:36,790 --> 01:19:34,880
there are relatively few papers or it's

2194
01:19:39,030 --> 01:19:36,800
just extremely new

2195
01:19:40,390 --> 01:19:39,040
and research that

2196
01:19:42,630 --> 01:19:40,400
though i wouldn't recommend that because

2197
01:19:44,630 --> 01:19:42,640
then you're chasing new for newness sake

2198
01:19:45,750 --> 01:19:44,640
and i don't i don't i don't particularly

2199
01:19:47,830 --> 01:19:45,760
understand why

2200
01:19:50,630 --> 01:19:47,840
ivan goran says are you familiar with

2201
01:19:52,390 --> 01:19:50,640
general semantics of alfred

2202
01:19:53,990 --> 01:19:52,400
korusbiski nope

2203
01:19:56,310 --> 01:19:54,000
i'm not i'm familiar with some of

2204
01:19:58,709 --> 01:19:56,320
chomsky's work and to the degree that

2205
01:20:02,189 --> 01:19:58,719
it's a subset of chomsky's work or a

2206
01:20:06,229 --> 01:20:04,870
ja524309 says i can't believe

2207
01:20:07,590 --> 01:20:06,239
this is he was referring to richard

2208
01:20:09,030 --> 01:20:07,600
orchards he said i can't believe you

2209
01:20:10,310 --> 01:20:09,040
asked richard butcher's one of my

2210
01:20:11,830 --> 01:20:10,320
questions from the comments in his

2211
01:20:13,590 --> 01:20:11,840
commutative algebra videos how did you

2212
01:20:15,110 --> 01:20:13,600
find that and did you just watch all his

2213
01:20:16,709 --> 01:20:15,120
videos well i'll say that i do my

2214
01:20:19,910 --> 01:20:16,719
research before speaking to people i do

2215
01:20:21,590 --> 01:20:19,920
my research second i learn and relearn

2216
01:20:23,110 --> 01:20:21,600
mathematics

2217
01:20:26,070 --> 01:20:23,120
almost on a daily basis so i watch

2218
01:20:28,070 --> 01:20:26,080
lectures many lectures online

2219
01:20:29,110 --> 01:20:28,080
in fact here's something you can let me

2220
01:20:30,790 --> 01:20:29,120
know if you're interested in this i was

2221
01:20:32,629 --> 01:20:30,800
thinking of live streaming my own study

2222
01:20:35,030 --> 01:20:32,639
sessions just to mitigate my own

2223
01:20:36,149 --> 01:20:35,040
proclivities to adhd and distractibility

2224
01:20:37,669 --> 01:20:36,159
as well as it's interesting to the

2225
01:20:39,110 --> 01:20:37,679
audience to study or to watch someone

2226
01:20:41,430 --> 01:20:39,120
study because then they study and

2227
01:20:43,590 --> 01:20:41,440
they're more motivated to do so

2228
01:20:46,629 --> 01:20:43,600
i realize that the toe clippings channel

2229
01:20:48,550 --> 01:20:46,639
has only 350 subscribers

2230
01:20:50,229 --> 01:20:48,560
it requires 1 000 subscribers in order

2231
01:20:51,350 --> 01:20:50,239
for me to live stream there which i just

2232
01:20:52,870 --> 01:20:51,360
found out today because i was trying to

2233
01:20:54,950 --> 01:20:52,880
live stream this there

2234
01:20:56,790 --> 01:20:54,960
so once we hit 1000 then i'll consider

2235
01:20:58,390 --> 01:20:56,800
doing more live streams on that channel

2236
01:21:01,270 --> 01:20:58,400
again as to not dilute the quality of

2237
01:21:02,470 --> 01:21:01,280
this one johann hedeval says

2238
01:21:04,390 --> 01:21:02,480
which one of your interviews made you

2239
01:21:06,550 --> 01:21:04,400
feel more energized directly afterward

2240
01:21:09,030 --> 01:21:06,560
and perhaps inspired you to try and

2241
01:21:12,149 --> 01:21:10,709
well which ones made you more energized

2242
01:21:14,310 --> 01:21:12,159
afterward and which ones made you feel

2243
01:21:16,070 --> 01:21:14,320
tired okay virtually every single

2244
01:21:18,310 --> 01:21:16,080
interview makes me feel wired right

2245
01:21:21,030 --> 01:21:18,320
afterward though i generally go into

2246
01:21:22,550 --> 01:21:21,040
them extremely

2247
01:21:23,270 --> 01:21:22,560
habitudinous and

2248
01:21:24,790 --> 01:21:23,280
and

2249
01:21:26,629 --> 01:21:24,800
lacking of energy

2250
01:21:29,030 --> 01:21:26,639
and that's one because of my general

2251
01:21:30,229 --> 01:21:29,040
let's say dullness of mind but two

2252
01:21:32,629 --> 01:21:30,239
that's because

2253
01:21:34,470 --> 01:21:32,639
i'm often tired and fasting

2254
01:21:35,990 --> 01:21:34,480
directly before in an effort to study

2255
01:21:37,990 --> 01:21:36,000
for the interview it's difficult for me

2256
01:21:39,350 --> 01:21:38,000
to get sleep when i know a podcast is

2257
01:21:41,189 --> 01:21:39,360
coming up the next day because i'm

2258
01:21:43,750 --> 01:21:41,199
thinking about it thinking about it and

2259
01:21:45,990 --> 01:21:43,760
i have trouble i have

2260
01:21:48,390 --> 01:21:46,000
i have extreme trouble with my own mind

2261
01:21:50,310 --> 01:21:48,400
i'm uncomfortable with my own mind and

2262
01:21:53,830 --> 01:21:50,320
it's something i need to work on

2263
01:21:58,470 --> 01:21:55,750
it's difficult to shut my mind off and

2264
01:22:06,870 --> 01:21:58,480
meditation does not help has not helped

2265
01:22:10,790 --> 01:22:08,790
as for what drained me what interview

2266
01:22:12,870 --> 01:22:10,800
drained me there are two interviews that

2267
01:22:14,950 --> 01:22:12,880
actually drained me

2268
01:22:17,510 --> 01:22:14,960
mithuna's interview on looking glass

2269
01:22:18,709 --> 01:22:17,520
universe i was so tired going into it i

2270
01:22:21,350 --> 01:22:18,719
was just

2271
01:22:22,629 --> 01:22:21,360
falling falling taking everything from

2272
01:22:24,870 --> 01:22:22,639
me to just

2273
01:22:26,470 --> 01:22:24,880
to read and to pay attention to the word

2274
01:22:28,390 --> 01:22:26,480
she's saying a little bit of that is

2275
01:22:30,629 --> 01:22:28,400
happening right now that was not because

2276
01:22:33,350 --> 01:22:30,639
she was an insipid guest at all it was

2277
01:22:35,910 --> 01:22:33,360
because of my own innervatedness and

2278
01:22:37,750 --> 01:22:35,920
listlessness as for the other guest that

2279
01:22:39,990 --> 01:22:37,760
drained me thomas campbell

2280
01:22:41,350 --> 01:22:40,000
okay thomas bless his heart he is my

2281
01:22:42,629 --> 01:22:41,360
friend well

2282
01:22:44,149 --> 01:22:42,639
he i don't know if he would consider me

2283
01:22:46,709 --> 01:22:44,159
a friend i consider him a friend i hold

2284
01:22:48,629 --> 01:22:46,719
him with high regard but that man is

2285
01:22:50,310 --> 01:22:48,639
incapable of giving an answer that is

2286
01:22:52,629 --> 01:22:50,320
less than two minutes long

2287
01:22:54,390 --> 01:22:52,639
in fact often his answers would go up to

2288
01:22:57,110 --> 01:22:54,400
30 minutes long and i'm just thinking

2289
01:22:58,470 --> 01:22:57,120
time is money here tom i have 100

2290
01:23:00,550 --> 01:22:58,480
questions to get to

2291
01:23:02,550 --> 01:23:00,560
and i have a massage to get to and my

2292
01:23:04,550 --> 01:23:02,560
wife is coming home and i would like to

2293
01:23:05,830 --> 01:23:04,560
eat at some point and you've told me

2294
01:23:07,430 --> 01:23:05,840
this before and you're saying the same

2295
01:23:08,709 --> 01:23:07,440
sentiment in different words

2296
01:23:10,790 --> 01:23:08,719
50 times

2297
01:23:14,310 --> 01:23:10,800
can we please get to the point

2298
01:23:16,149 --> 01:23:14,320
so thomas was extremely draining

2299
01:23:18,310 --> 01:23:16,159
he speaks laboriously and it's

2300
01:23:20,310 --> 01:23:18,320
impossible for me to get a quick answer

2301
01:23:23,110 --> 01:23:20,320
out of him

2302
01:23:25,270 --> 01:23:23,120
but bless his heart

2303
01:23:26,950 --> 01:23:25,280
june 80s says number one you're a hot

2304
01:23:29,189 --> 01:23:26,960
dude thank you

2305
01:23:32,470 --> 01:23:29,199
i appreciate that number two what you do

2306
01:23:35,030 --> 01:23:32,480
is so unique thanks for the pursuit

2307
01:23:36,709 --> 01:23:35,040
i appreciate that

2308
01:23:39,030 --> 01:23:36,719
number three what are your views on

2309
01:23:42,229 --> 01:23:39,040
pineapple on pizza okay

2310
01:23:50,550 --> 01:23:42,239
so i assume this is a serious question i

2311
01:23:54,470 --> 01:23:52,550
i don't dislike it i actually like it

2312
01:23:56,470 --> 01:23:54,480
though i would never order it i'm not

2313
01:23:57,750 --> 01:23:56,480
snobbish when it comes to food in fact

2314
01:24:00,550 --> 01:23:57,760
i'm

2315
01:24:02,390 --> 01:24:00,560
opposite

2316
01:24:05,669 --> 01:24:02,400
i think i need to be a bit more snobbish

2317
01:24:09,750 --> 01:24:08,310
i mean i don't eat lamb and

2318
01:24:12,709 --> 01:24:09,760
i don't eat any

2319
01:24:16,950 --> 01:24:14,709
advanced animals for some reason in my

2320
01:24:18,629 --> 01:24:16,960
brain i consider them to be different a

2321
01:24:21,669 --> 01:24:18,639
different kind like lamb and

2322
01:24:24,149 --> 01:24:21,679
goat and duck and deer i don't eat those

2323
01:24:26,070 --> 01:24:24,159
i just i'm a simple man chicken

2324
01:24:31,030 --> 01:24:26,080
and

2325
01:24:33,189 --> 01:24:31,040
don't i only like bacon

2326
01:24:35,270 --> 01:24:33,199
but uh but within that i eat virtually

2327
01:24:38,070 --> 01:24:35,280
anything

2328
01:24:39,910 --> 01:24:38,080
okay then he said or she said what is it

2329
01:24:41,189 --> 01:24:39,920
that you may have not done on your time

2330
01:24:48,709 --> 01:24:41,199
on earth that could leave you with one

2331
01:24:53,750 --> 01:24:50,229
i imagine it's not spending enough time

2332
01:24:53,760 --> 01:24:57,189
i'm selfish and

2333
01:25:01,270 --> 01:24:58,629
i could spend much more time with them

2334
01:25:03,510 --> 01:25:01,280
and it lifts their spirit like

2335
01:25:07,030 --> 01:25:03,520
mad it lifts their spirits especially my

2336
01:25:10,790 --> 01:25:07,040
mom especially during lockdown

2337
01:25:10,800 --> 01:25:17,350
and part of that is my own

2338
01:25:20,550 --> 01:25:19,510
i just treat them as an imposition on my

2339
01:25:22,229 --> 01:25:20,560
work

2340
01:25:23,750 --> 01:25:22,239
and i know they feel that and i don't

2341
01:25:25,350 --> 01:25:23,760
try to convey that and i try to even

2342
01:25:26,709 --> 01:25:25,360
hide that and i

2343
01:25:28,870 --> 01:25:26,719
even saying it right now i don't like to

2344
01:25:30,149 --> 01:25:28,880
say it i don't i don't even like to

2345
01:25:33,110 --> 01:25:30,159
admit it i feel like i'm admitting it

2346
01:25:37,430 --> 01:25:35,430
but that's a part of me that is inside

2347
01:25:40,070 --> 01:25:37,440
me and i know that

2348
01:25:42,709 --> 01:25:40,080
if they were to die or if i was to die

2349
01:25:45,350 --> 01:25:42,719
that that would be a huge regret and i

2350
01:25:46,870 --> 01:25:45,360
and i still don't visit them

2351
01:25:48,870 --> 01:25:46,880
anywhere near as often as i could and

2352
01:25:51,350 --> 01:25:48,880
when i'm there i'm distracted i'm just

2353
01:26:04,390 --> 01:25:51,360
thinking about work mainly i'm almost

2354
01:26:07,910 --> 01:26:06,229
they would say i'm a wonderful son they

2355
01:26:10,070 --> 01:26:07,920
would say i'm a wonderful wonderful son

2356
01:26:12,070 --> 01:26:10,080
but

2357
01:26:13,910 --> 01:26:12,080
i'm a well-behaved son

2358
01:26:15,270 --> 01:26:13,920
that's true and i think that's what they

2359
01:26:17,669 --> 01:26:15,280
mean when they say i'm a wonderful son

2360
01:26:20,870 --> 01:26:17,679
but i think that i'm not in many other

2361
01:26:24,709 --> 01:26:23,350
that's my regret

2362
01:26:26,070 --> 01:26:24,719
that would be my regret and that is my

2363
01:26:27,590 --> 01:26:26,080
regret and

2364
01:26:32,470 --> 01:26:27,600
i'm working on it

2365
01:26:36,709 --> 01:26:34,790
light armanov

2366
01:26:39,189 --> 01:26:36,719
asks with regard to chomsky how do i

2367
01:26:41,189 --> 01:26:39,199
keep getting him on

2368
01:26:42,629 --> 01:26:41,199
he likes me chomsky happens to like me

2369
01:26:44,550 --> 01:26:42,639
for whatever reason at least he told me

2370
01:26:46,149 --> 01:26:44,560
so and i don't think chomsky is a liar

2371
01:26:48,550 --> 01:26:46,159
trump's i don't see chomsky is someone

2372
01:26:51,750 --> 01:26:48,560
who would be particularly polite to

2373
01:26:53,910 --> 01:26:51,760
someone that he dislikes

2374
01:26:55,910 --> 01:26:53,920
people despise that i like chomsky and

2375
01:26:58,629 --> 01:26:55,920
peterson because i'm apparently not

2376
01:27:01,350 --> 01:26:58,639
allowed to be a fan of both and that

2377
01:27:03,110 --> 01:27:01,360
brings me back to that quote about

2378
01:27:04,550 --> 01:27:03,120
only the shallowest of mines can think

2379
01:27:06,709 --> 01:27:04,560
that in great controversy one side is

2380
01:27:08,790 --> 01:27:06,719
mere folly

2381
01:27:09,750 --> 01:27:08,800
i think that's a foolish way of

2382
01:27:11,590 --> 01:27:09,760
thinking

2383
01:27:13,189 --> 01:27:11,600
i i don't i don't

2384
01:27:15,110 --> 01:27:13,199
i think that just demonstrates to me

2385
01:27:16,390 --> 01:27:15,120
that people have chosen their side their

2386
01:27:18,229 --> 01:27:16,400
side which has to do with what they've

2387
01:27:19,830 --> 01:27:18,239
identified with and that's why i have a

2388
01:27:22,310 --> 01:27:19,840
huge problem with identity and

2389
01:27:24,070 --> 01:27:22,320
identifying with some category identity

2390
01:27:26,070 --> 01:27:24,080
means sameness just so you know the

2391
01:27:27,590 --> 01:27:26,080
etymology of it look i'm i'm well

2392
01:27:30,070 --> 01:27:27,600
trained in my left brain that's a left

2393
01:27:31,510 --> 01:27:30,080
brain activity to see sameness and

2394
01:27:33,590 --> 01:27:31,520
categories

2395
01:27:36,870 --> 01:27:33,600
i'm i'm so well trained that i would say

2396
01:27:38,709 --> 01:27:36,880
i'm overly trained as a left hemispheric

2397
01:27:39,750 --> 01:27:38,719
person and i

2398
01:27:41,350 --> 01:27:39,760
need to

2399
01:27:43,510 --> 01:27:41,360
balance that with the uniqueness of the

2400
01:27:44,550 --> 01:27:43,520
right brain and see each as unique which

2401
01:27:47,030 --> 01:27:44,560
means you can't compare you can't

2402
01:27:50,390 --> 01:27:47,040
compare chomsky to peterson in a at

2403
01:27:55,030 --> 01:27:52,790
and i have less sympathy for those who

2404
01:27:56,390 --> 01:27:55,040
are there is something in me that has

2405
01:27:57,830 --> 01:27:56,400
less sympathy for those who are on the

2406
01:27:59,669 --> 01:27:57,840
extreme left

2407
01:28:00,790 --> 01:27:59,679
that criticize in this manner than i do

2408
01:28:03,110 --> 01:28:00,800
for those that are on the extreme right

2409
01:28:04,149 --> 01:28:03,120
and the reason is that of personality

2410
01:28:07,830 --> 01:28:04,159
they

2411
01:28:09,590 --> 01:28:07,840
openness that is a big five personality

2412
01:28:11,830 --> 01:28:09,600
trait

2413
01:28:13,270 --> 01:28:11,840
so i see them as like the right i see is

2414
01:28:15,270 --> 01:28:13,280
being closed-minded automatically so i

2415
01:28:16,629 --> 01:28:15,280
expect that from them but the extreme

2416
01:28:20,709 --> 01:28:16,639
left

2417
01:28:21,990 --> 01:28:20,719
who are open-minded

2418
01:28:24,070 --> 01:28:22,000
which to me demonstrates that they have

2419
01:28:25,270 --> 01:28:24,080
this pre-ordained dogma that they're

2420
01:28:29,189 --> 01:28:25,280
following

2421
01:28:30,709 --> 01:28:29,199
openness well plenty of that is what

2422
01:28:32,390 --> 01:28:30,719
they've been taught by universities but

2423
01:28:35,030 --> 01:28:32,400
i can't

2424
01:28:36,470 --> 01:28:35,040
but it but plenty of it is not

2425
01:28:38,149 --> 01:28:36,480
that's why it's important to never lie

2426
01:28:39,750 --> 01:28:38,159
never never never never lie you corrupt

2427
01:28:42,070 --> 01:28:39,760
your soul you corrupt your conscience

2428
01:28:43,990 --> 01:28:42,080
you violate it never never never lie

2429
01:28:48,149 --> 01:28:44,000
never lie never

2430
01:28:50,550 --> 01:28:48,159
never dishonor someone who

2431
01:28:53,910 --> 01:28:50,560
will never cheat on someone never lie

2432
01:28:57,270 --> 01:28:53,920
their horrible horrible horrible acts

2433
01:28:58,870 --> 01:28:57,280
horrible horrible acts okay my april

2434
01:29:00,950 --> 01:28:58,880

2435
01:29:02,390 --> 01:29:00,960
you do besides filmmaking so i sing i

2436
01:29:03,669 --> 01:29:02,400
sing horribly and i play the guitar

2437
01:29:04,950 --> 01:29:03,679
horribly

2438
01:29:06,550 --> 01:29:04,960
it's more

2439
01:29:08,790 --> 01:29:06,560
grunge like

2440
01:29:12,229 --> 01:29:08,800
i

2441
01:29:16,629 --> 01:29:12,239
comedy

2442
01:29:20,070 --> 01:29:16,639
i used to write music i used to rap

2443
01:29:22,229 --> 01:29:20,080
i like writing screenplays

2444
01:29:23,990 --> 01:29:22,239
mario calabrese says what can change the

2445
01:29:25,910 --> 01:29:24,000
nature of man well what can change the

2446
01:29:27,350 --> 01:29:25,920
nature of man

2447
01:29:30,229 --> 01:29:27,360
i wouldn't say it's rational

2448
01:29:35,750 --> 01:29:33,910
okay barfi man barfi man362 says please

2449
01:29:37,669 --> 01:29:35,760
talk about meaning equals intellect

2450
01:29:39,350 --> 01:29:37,679
intelligibility times value as well as

2451
01:29:41,830 --> 01:29:39,360
attention equals value structure of

2452
01:29:43,830 --> 01:29:41,840
beings also interest is about getting

2453
01:29:45,030 --> 01:29:43,840
more value than you put in

2454
01:29:46,709 --> 01:29:45,040
you and your channel are interesting

2455
01:29:48,550 --> 01:29:46,719

fanabot helps socially it helps you feel

2466
01:30:10,550 --> 01:30:09,120
disinhibited or uninhibited by the way i

2467
01:30:12,149 --> 01:30:10,560

unsaid and the

2472
01:30:22,390 --> 01:30:19,679
letter is all about my critique on

2473
01:30:23,830 --> 01:30:22,400
rationality so mario calabrese what can

2474
01:30:25,750 --> 01:30:23,840
change the nature of man i say not

2475
01:30:27,669 --> 01:30:25,760

you to there to hear my views on

2477
01:30:30,470 --> 01:30:29,360
rationality which one person would i

2478
01:30:34,070 --> 01:30:30,480
like to interview most for the channel

2479
01:30:34,080 --> 01:30:38,149
hofstetter is number one

2480
01:30:42,310 --> 01:30:40,229
daniel dennett

2481
01:30:46,550 --> 01:30:42,320
eminem

2482
01:30:49,270 --> 01:30:46,560
love to talk to ed whitton i would love

2483
01:30:50,790 --> 01:30:49,280
to talk to terry tau hideo kojima video

2484
01:30:53,189 --> 01:30:50,800
game developer

2485
01:30:55,669 --> 01:30:53,199
the developers of rockstar

2486
01:30:57,270 --> 01:30:55,679
that is dan and sam hauser

2487
01:30:58,790 --> 01:30:57,280
i would love to talk to jonathan blow

2488
01:31:00,149 --> 01:30:58,800
he's the developer of braid and the

2489
01:31:01,830 --> 01:31:00,159
witness

2490
01:31:03,270 --> 01:31:01,840
i would love to talk to colin quinn he's

2491
01:31:05,990 --> 01:31:03,280
a comedian i consider him to be the

2492
01:31:09,830 --> 01:31:06,000
greatest comedian living right now even

2493
01:31:11,669 --> 01:31:09,840
of all time in my personal taste i don't

2494
01:31:14,229 --> 01:31:11,679
find i think some of these people who

2495
01:31:16,390 --> 01:31:14,239
say richard pryor was the funniest and

2496
01:31:17,510 --> 01:31:16,400
george carlin was the funniest

2497
01:31:19,590 --> 01:31:17,520
i don't know

2498
01:31:21,350 --> 01:31:19,600
george carlin never made me laugh he

2499
01:31:23,669 --> 01:31:21,360
makes the audience mainly clap in

2500
01:31:25,030 --> 01:31:23,679
agreement and often he astounds the

2501
01:31:27,030 --> 01:31:25,040
audience as to how he can memorize long

2502
01:31:29,510 --> 01:31:27,040
phrases but he never made me laugh and

2503
01:31:31,669 --> 01:31:29,520
that's mainly a function of time it's

2504
01:31:33,430 --> 01:31:31,679
that i grew up in a different era so he

2505
01:31:35,390 --> 01:31:33,440
probably was hilarious for his time

2506
01:31:38,070 --> 01:31:35,400
probably colin quinn will be

2507
01:31:39,430 --> 01:31:38,080
extremely lame for people 20 years from

2508
01:31:41,350 --> 01:31:39,440
now

2509
01:31:43,910 --> 01:31:41,360
so it's just a function of time much

2510
01:31:45,510 --> 01:31:43,920
like people love the old rappers i think

2511
01:31:47,430 --> 01:31:45,520
eminem is one of the best rappers if not

2512
01:31:50,070 --> 01:31:47,440
the best rapper ever

2513
01:31:52,070 --> 01:31:50,080
and i'm sorry obviously tupac is i'm not

2514
01:31:54,790 --> 01:31:52,080
a fan of biggie biggie had great flow

2515
01:31:55,750 --> 01:31:54,800
but tupac had a great heart and heart

2516
01:32:01,110 --> 01:31:55,760
like

2517
01:32:04,310 --> 01:32:01,120
just makes you collapse

2518
01:32:07,030 --> 01:32:04,320
and this guy died when he was so young

2519
01:32:09,910 --> 01:32:07,040
holy moly so it's like tupac and eminem

2520
01:32:13,189 --> 01:32:09,920
but in terms of verbal acuity and

2521
01:32:14,870 --> 01:32:13,199
fluidity it's eminem by far i don't

2522
01:32:17,189 --> 01:32:14,880
think there's a contest

2523
01:32:20,070 --> 01:32:17,199
and some people who say that the rappers

2524
01:32:22,070 --> 01:32:20,080
from the 80s and 70s are the best

2525
01:32:24,070 --> 01:32:22,080
well it's more like they grew up with

2526
01:32:25,669 --> 01:32:24,080
those rappers and to them it was the

2527
01:32:27,189 --> 01:32:25,679
best for their time and it may be in the

2528
01:32:28,550 --> 01:32:27,199
same way that george carlin was the best

2529
01:32:30,149 --> 01:32:28,560
for his time

2530
01:32:31,990 --> 01:32:30,159
i think colin quinn is the best for our

2531
01:32:33,430 --> 01:32:32,000
time sean murray is someone else i'd

2532
01:32:35,830 --> 01:32:33,440
like to interview he's from hello games

2533
01:32:37,350 --> 01:32:35,840
a video game developer

2534
01:32:38,790 --> 01:32:37,360
sam harris i'd like to interview and i'd

2535
01:32:42,149 --> 01:32:38,800
also like to interview this guy named

2536
01:32:43,750 --> 01:32:42,159
cosmic skeptic i think his name is alex

2537
01:32:45,750 --> 01:32:43,760
he's not a dream guest because he's

2538
01:32:46,870 --> 01:32:45,760
within reach it's not a dream but nat

2539
01:32:47,990 --> 01:32:46,880
wants to know i'm interested to hear

2540
01:32:50,149 --> 01:32:48,000
your thoughts on philosophy and

2541
01:32:53,590 --> 01:32:50,159
education specifically pedagogy and the

2542
01:32:54,470 --> 01:32:53,600
curriculum pre-degree level

2543
01:32:56,870 --> 01:32:54,480
how

2544
01:32:58,950 --> 01:32:56,880
and to whom what age groups should

2545
01:33:00,790 --> 01:32:58,960
philosophy be taught and what broader

2546
01:33:02,790 --> 01:33:00,800
social problems might

2547
01:33:11,990 --> 01:33:02,800
be remedied if we had proper

2548
01:33:15,350 --> 01:33:13,910
here's my take on education i think that

2549
01:33:17,350 --> 01:33:15,360
what's in the stem fields as an

2550
01:33:19,350 --> 01:33:17,360
undergraduate

2551
01:33:20,550 --> 01:33:19,360
can be learned by any heist not any by

2552
01:33:21,350 --> 01:33:20,560
almost by

2553
01:33:22,950 --> 01:33:21,360
a

2554
01:33:24,070 --> 01:33:22,960
sufficiently gifted high schooler i

2555
01:33:25,510 --> 01:33:24,080
don't think there's anything in the

2556
01:33:27,030 --> 01:33:25,520
university undergraduate degree in the

2557
01:33:28,870 --> 01:33:27,040
stems that can

2558
01:33:32,149 --> 01:33:28,880
that cannot be learned by

2559
01:33:33,669 --> 01:33:32,159
a 17 year old personally i think that

2560
01:33:35,590 --> 01:33:33,679
philosophy is absolutely different

2561
01:33:36,870 --> 01:33:35,600
because it requires experience and it's

2562
01:33:37,910 --> 01:33:36,880
another reason why there's no such thing

2563
01:33:39,750 --> 01:33:37,920
as a

2564
01:33:40,870 --> 01:33:39,760
child prodigy in film

2565
01:33:43,030 --> 01:33:40,880
because you had to have gone through

2566
01:33:45,590 --> 01:33:43,040
life you had to have gone through

2567
01:33:48,310 --> 01:33:45,600
hopes and dreams and

2568
01:33:50,550 --> 01:33:48,320
places and pain and particularly pain

2569
01:33:52,629 --> 01:33:50,560
and philosophy requires that that's a

2570
01:33:54,070 --> 01:33:52,639
requisite as for the social problems i

2571
01:33:54,709 --> 01:33:54,080
wouldn't say that the social problems

2572
01:33:56,470 --> 01:33:54,719
are

2573
01:33:59,270 --> 01:33:56,480
a lack of philosophical understanding

2574
01:34:00,149 --> 01:33:59,280
per se but perhaps a lack of humility

2575
01:34:01,510 --> 01:34:00,159
that is

2576
01:34:03,910 --> 01:34:01,520
that people ardently claim that

2577
01:34:07,270 --> 01:34:03,920
whiteness is the number one enemy or

2578
01:34:09,189 --> 01:34:07,280
socialism is de facto incorrect

2579
01:34:10,470 --> 01:34:09,199
etc

2580
01:34:12,390 --> 01:34:10,480
it may be a lack of religious

2581
01:34:14,470 --> 01:34:12,400
orientation or a lack of commitment to

2582
01:34:16,790 --> 01:34:14,480
the good or a lack of being honorable in

2583
01:34:19,030 --> 01:34:16,800
one's private life no matter what

2584
01:34:21,189 --> 01:34:19,040
rather than a philosophical problem

2585
01:34:24,070 --> 01:34:21,199
it may be that and as for the last

2586
01:34:25,910 --> 01:34:24,080
question i need to think about that

2587
01:34:27,430 --> 01:34:25,920
am i thinking of having graham priest on

2588
01:34:30,709 --> 01:34:27,440
the show this is by no one knowing noah

2589
01:34:32,390 --> 01:34:30,719
yes it's confirmed but without a date

2590
01:34:33,830 --> 01:34:32,400
i need to work through his material that

2591
01:34:35,910 --> 01:34:33,840
may take a month it takes quite some

2592
01:34:37,430 --> 01:34:35,920
time to work through someone's material

2593
01:34:39,110 --> 01:34:37,440
i don't know why

2594
01:34:40,790 --> 01:34:39,120
you would say that jordan peterson is

2595
01:34:44,229 --> 01:34:40,800
delusional

2596
01:34:46,870 --> 01:34:44,239
see i don't like this when people

2597
01:34:49,669 --> 01:34:46,880
dismiss people by saying oh he's obvious

2598
01:34:51,270 --> 01:34:49,679
someone recently said i elon musk is

2599
01:34:54,070 --> 01:34:51,280
obviously low iq

2600
01:34:55,590 --> 01:34:54,080
i said low iq elon musk why they said

2601
01:34:59,030 --> 01:34:55,600
because he doesn't see socialism as the

2602
01:35:01,590 --> 01:35:00,629
well okay

2603
01:35:02,550 --> 01:35:01,600
i will

2604
01:35:03,910 --> 01:35:02,560
reserve

2605
01:35:11,590 --> 01:35:03,920
i

2606
01:35:14,470 --> 01:35:11,600
absolutely not

2607
01:35:16,550 --> 01:35:14,480
easy to dismiss almost any intellectual

2608
01:35:19,510 --> 01:35:16,560
almost any intellectual

2609
01:35:23,750 --> 01:35:19,520
at least i don't think so

2610
01:35:28,390 --> 01:35:26,229
maybe i'm asinine freestyling i wasn't

2611
01:35:29,910 --> 01:35:28,400
that great at freestyling i could

2612
01:35:31,270 --> 01:35:29,920
but i never developed i was more

2613
01:35:34,629 --> 01:35:31,280
interested in writing the songs i had

2614
01:35:37,750 --> 01:35:34,639
about 50 songs in rap that i

2615
01:35:40,070 --> 01:35:37,760
deleted in a rage because i was beat up

2616
01:35:41,590 --> 01:35:40,080
one time during a battle with someone a

2617
01:35:44,149 --> 01:35:41,600
freestyle battle or a

2618
01:35:45,430 --> 01:35:44,159
rap battle where i insulted someone's

2619
01:35:47,669 --> 01:35:45,440
like anything is fair game when you're

2620
01:35:49,430 --> 01:35:47,679
rapping so i was 14 or so i insulted

2621
01:35:50,310 --> 01:35:49,440
someone's dead

2622
01:35:51,910 --> 01:35:50,320
cousin

2623
01:35:53,430 --> 01:35:51,920
which i'm thinking about it thought i

2624
01:35:55,270 --> 01:35:53,440
know somewhat foolish i actually didn't

2625
01:35:56,950 --> 01:35:55,280
insult them i just said

2626
01:35:58,550 --> 01:35:56,960
this was back when msn messenger was

2627
01:36:00,950 --> 01:35:58,560
around and they had statuses people

2628
01:36:02,470 --> 01:36:00,960
would put extra words

2629
01:36:04,390 --> 01:36:02,480
different than just just their name

2630
01:36:05,350 --> 01:36:04,400
someone said r.i.p let's say her name

2631
01:36:07,510 --> 01:36:05,360
was

2632
01:36:10,310 --> 01:36:07,520
sandra so they said rip sandra and he

2633
01:36:12,310 --> 01:36:10,320
would always put that rip sandra and i

2634
01:36:13,669 --> 01:36:12,320
saw that as virtue signaling because i

2635
01:36:15,350 --> 01:36:13,679
didn't see him as particularly caring

2636
01:36:17,189 --> 01:36:15,360
about his cousin so i said something

2637
01:36:19,590 --> 01:36:17,199
along the lines of that that saying go

2638
01:36:22,229 --> 01:36:19,600
and cry over your raps and then him and

2639
01:36:23,590 --> 01:36:22,239
a couple hoodlums came and

2640
01:36:25,350 --> 01:36:23,600
flipped me upside down in front of the

2641
01:36:27,030 --> 01:36:25,360
school from that day forward i said i'm

2642
01:36:28,950 --> 01:36:27,040
never rapping again i went home and i

2643
01:36:30,390 --> 01:36:28,960
deleted all my songs and then i started

2644
01:36:32,709 --> 01:36:30,400
listening to rock because i needed some

2645
01:36:34,629 --> 01:36:32,719
new music at the time

2646
01:36:35,990 --> 01:36:34,639
that's why i abandoned rap okay let's

2647
01:36:39,030 --> 01:36:36,000
get to this pac-man says what do you

2648
01:36:40,390 --> 01:36:39,040
think of the educational system hmm

2649
01:36:42,550 --> 01:36:40,400
does it help a majority of people think

2650
01:36:44,229 --> 01:36:42,560
like i said i don't think i think that

2651
01:36:47,189 --> 01:36:44,239
much of what's taught in school is

2652
01:36:49,189 --> 01:36:47,199
superfluous completely i think that you

2653
01:36:50,149 --> 01:36:49,199
know this because you probably don't

2654
01:36:53,189 --> 01:36:50,159
remember

2655
01:36:55,590 --> 01:36:53,199
99 95 of what you were taught in school

2656
01:36:56,709 --> 01:36:55,600
and louis ck once took his family his

2657
01:36:57,669 --> 01:36:56,719
two girls

2658
01:36:59,430 --> 01:36:57,679
when they were supposed to be in

2659
01:37:00,950 --> 01:36:59,440
elementary school out from school and

2660
01:37:02,390 --> 01:37:00,960
traveled for a half a semester or

2661
01:37:04,790 --> 01:37:02,400
semester or a full year or whatever it

2662
01:37:07,030 --> 01:37:04,800
may be and said that they got more

2663
01:37:09,669 --> 01:37:07,040
education from that than they got from

2664
01:37:11,510 --> 01:37:09,679
being in school and people were snarky

2665
01:37:13,030 --> 01:37:11,520
about that one reason they are is

2666
01:37:15,109 --> 01:37:13,040
because they're not able to do that for

2667
01:37:16,709 --> 01:37:15,119
their own child so they then tend to

2668
01:37:20,070 --> 01:37:16,719
repudiate others but i think it's

2669
01:37:22,310 --> 01:37:20,080
salutary i'm thinking if i have a kid

2670
01:37:24,629 --> 01:37:22,320
i'm thinking of

2671
01:37:26,950 --> 01:37:24,639
homeschooling him or her in a process

2672
01:37:28,629 --> 01:37:26,960
that peter gray calls unschooling now i

2673
01:37:29,830 --> 01:37:28,639
do have an interview with peter gray for

2674
01:37:31,510 --> 01:37:29,840
those of you who want to watch it it's

2675
01:37:33,030 --> 01:37:31,520
on the dracoma institute i'll leave a

2676
01:37:34,950 --> 01:37:33,040
link in the description it's not one

2677
01:37:36,709 --> 01:37:34,960
that's on this channel the problem then

2678
01:37:38,470 --> 01:37:36,719
becomes how do you socialize them

2679
01:37:39,830 --> 01:37:38,480
because they can easily become awkward

2680
01:37:43,350 --> 01:37:39,840
if you don't expose them to the

2681
01:37:45,510 --> 01:37:43,360
harshness of the flagicious peers

2682
01:37:48,310 --> 01:37:45,520
one option is to push them to their

2683
01:37:51,510 --> 01:37:48,320
limits of social discomfort another is

2684
01:37:52,950 --> 01:37:51,520
to develop or to cultivate a local group

2685
01:37:55,510 --> 01:37:52,960
of like-minded

2686
01:37:57,669 --> 01:37:55,520
unschoolers parents who are similarly

2687
01:37:59,830 --> 01:37:57,679
interested and then have our kid hang

2688
01:38:01,510 --> 01:37:59,840
out with them

2689
01:38:02,709 --> 01:38:01,520
as for education look

2690
01:38:04,950 --> 01:38:02,719
in math

2691
01:38:06,470 --> 01:38:04,960
i was watching a recent

2692
01:38:07,830 --> 01:38:06,480
lecture by richard orchards and he was

2693
01:38:10,229 --> 01:38:07,840
saying okay we're going to talk about

2694
01:38:11,910 --> 01:38:10,239
modular forms

2695
01:38:13,350 --> 01:38:11,920
now this is what a modular form is he

2696
01:38:14,870 --> 01:38:13,360
writes down the equation then he says

2697
01:38:16,550 --> 01:38:14,880
and now if someone says this is what a

2698
01:38:18,070 --> 01:38:16,560
modular form is it looks like if someone

2699
01:38:19,669 --> 01:38:18,080
had a contest for what is the strangest

2700
01:38:21,109 --> 01:38:19,679
equation you could come up with and then

2701
01:38:22,870 --> 01:38:21,119
chose one of them

2702
01:38:23,990 --> 01:38:22,880
i liked that because that's actually

2703
01:38:25,350 --> 01:38:24,000
what you're thinking when you look at

2704
01:38:26,950 --> 01:38:25,360
the equation for a modular form you're

2705
01:38:28,229 --> 01:38:26,960
thinking this is highly unmotivated

2706
01:38:29,430 --> 01:38:28,239
where did this come from why is this

2707
01:38:31,270 --> 01:38:29,440
useful

2708
01:38:33,510 --> 01:38:31,280
however if you look at wikipedia it's

2709
01:38:35,990 --> 01:38:33,520
removed from any

2710
01:38:37,750 --> 01:38:36,000
emotion from any commentary it's just

2711
01:38:39,189 --> 01:38:37,760
purely clinical

2712
01:38:40,470 --> 01:38:39,199
i understand that because it was modeled

2713
01:38:43,189 --> 01:38:40,480
after the encyclopedia it's called

2714
01:38:44,550 --> 01:38:43,199
wikipedia but a project of mine that i

2715
01:38:46,709 --> 01:38:44,560
would like to start

2716
01:38:48,870 --> 01:38:46,719
is a way of humanizing see i don't see

2717
01:38:50,790 --> 01:38:48,880
it as opinion versus editorial and

2718
01:38:53,189 --> 01:38:50,800
wikipedia would consider richard

2719
01:38:54,390 --> 01:38:53,199
borchard's comments to be opinion but i

2720
01:38:55,510 --> 01:38:54,400
don't see it as opinion i see it as

2721
01:38:57,750 --> 01:38:55,520
human

2722
01:38:59,189 --> 01:38:57,760
i see it as making math approachable and

2723
01:39:01,990 --> 01:38:59,199
i think that plenty people would

2724
01:39:03,669 --> 01:39:02,000
understand math and physics far greater

2725
01:39:06,229 --> 01:39:03,679
if there were little commentaries like

2726
01:39:08,229 --> 01:39:06,239
that and i don't know how to facilitate

2727
01:39:10,390 --> 01:39:08,239
that being in wikipedia maybe

2728
01:39:12,310 --> 01:39:10,400
wikipedia is not the right format but i

2729
01:39:14,149 --> 01:39:12,320
would like to cultivate a project in the

2730
01:39:18,149 --> 01:39:14,159
future that helps people learn math and

2731
01:39:20,149 --> 01:39:18,159
physics much more easily

2732
01:39:21,750 --> 01:39:20,159
as to what other elements or ingredients

2733
01:39:23,510 --> 01:39:21,760
it would take other than the occasional

2734
01:39:24,550 --> 01:39:23,520
sentences to how absurd an equation

2735
01:39:26,149 --> 01:39:24,560
seems

2736
01:39:28,470 --> 01:39:26,159
or where this is potentially going

2737
01:39:30,390 --> 01:39:28,480
whatever it may be i don't know and i'm

2738
01:39:32,149 --> 01:39:30,400
totally open to suggestions it's a

2739
01:39:35,189 --> 01:39:32,159
project that i have going on in the back

2740
01:39:38,629 --> 01:39:36,709
paul marie says what is your background

2741
01:39:40,470 --> 01:39:38,639
in math and physics my background is a

2742
01:39:41,910 --> 01:39:40,480
specialist degree in math and physics

2743
01:39:44,709 --> 01:39:41,920
from the university of toronto and you

2744
01:39:46,390 --> 01:39:44,719
can look this up it's the hardest degree

2745
01:39:47,830 --> 01:39:46,400
that is math and physics i chose it

2746
01:39:49,270 --> 01:39:47,840
because as a high schooler you have to

2747
01:39:50,790 --> 01:39:49,280
choose it once you're in high school

2748
01:39:52,790 --> 01:39:50,800
i chose it because i always like doing

2749
01:39:55,030 --> 01:39:52,800
what's the hardest i

2750
01:39:56,870 --> 01:39:55,040
i remember once there was the

2751
01:39:58,070 --> 01:39:56,880
a puzzle called the hardest logic puzzle

2752
01:39:59,510 --> 01:39:58,080
in the world and i remember thinking

2753
01:40:00,790 --> 01:39:59,520
okay that one's i'm gonna solve that and

2754
01:40:02,709 --> 01:40:00,800
you know what i'm gonna solve that in my

2755
01:40:04,709 --> 01:40:02,719
head without writing so i remember it

2756
01:40:05,830 --> 01:40:04,719
took me about a month or so i wasn't

2757
01:40:07,189 --> 01:40:05,840
thinking about it

2758
01:40:09,430 --> 01:40:07,199
all the time constantly but it took me

2759
01:40:11,669 --> 01:40:09,440
about a month of thinking to try and

2760
01:40:13,990 --> 01:40:11,679
solve that problem in my head

2761
01:40:15,750 --> 01:40:14,000
i always liked challenges intellectual

2762
01:40:18,870 --> 01:40:15,760
challenges

2763
01:40:20,550 --> 01:40:18,880
so i took what is the hardest degree at

2764
01:40:22,149 --> 01:40:20,560
u of t it's the specialist degree of

2765
01:40:23,270 --> 01:40:22,159
math and physics the president of u of t

2766
01:40:25,189 --> 01:40:23,280
actually told me that was the hardest

2767
01:40:27,590 --> 01:40:25,199
degree i'm not saying i did well in it

2768
01:40:29,990 --> 01:40:27,600
in fact i had many zeros many many zeros

2769
01:40:31,270 --> 01:40:30,000
because i had major depression clinical

2770
01:40:37,830 --> 01:40:31,280
depression

2771
01:40:43,189 --> 01:40:40,149
played video games

2772
01:40:45,590 --> 01:40:43,199
did nothing hated my life

2773
01:40:47,510 --> 01:40:45,600
horrible students horrible student

2774
01:40:50,390 --> 01:40:47,520
didn't go to class after first year not

2775
01:40:51,990 --> 01:40:50,400
one well a couple classes but

2776
01:40:53,510 --> 01:40:52,000
i didn't like going to classes i

2777
01:40:55,510 --> 01:40:53,520
despised going to classes i never took

2778
01:40:56,790 --> 01:40:55,520
notes even in high school

2779
01:40:58,870 --> 01:40:56,800
the reason why i didn't take notes was

2780
01:41:01,030 --> 01:40:58,880
because there was this lecture i watched

2781
01:41:02,790 --> 01:41:01,040
once where a professor was writing notes

2782
01:41:04,310 --> 01:41:02,800
and speaking and he was speaking what he

2783
01:41:06,550 --> 01:41:04,320
was saying was extremely important you

2784
01:41:08,070 --> 01:41:06,560
should have been taking notes about that

2785
01:41:09,510 --> 01:41:08,080
but people were only taking notes about

2786
01:41:11,350 --> 01:41:09,520
what was written on the board and then

2787
01:41:12,870 --> 01:41:11,360
the teacher was speaking and then he

2788
01:41:14,709 --> 01:41:12,880
started drawing a circle as he was

2789
01:41:16,550 --> 01:41:14,719
thinking and speaking and then people

2790
01:41:18,470 --> 01:41:16,560
drew the circle in their notebook and

2791
01:41:20,070 --> 01:41:18,480
then i thought okay i'm done i'm not

2792
01:41:21,990 --> 01:41:20,080
taking notes because obviously these

2793
01:41:23,189 --> 01:41:22,000
people who take notes are just followers

2794
01:41:25,109 --> 01:41:23,199
they're not actually processing the

2795
01:41:26,310 --> 01:41:25,119
information so let me listen to what the

2796
01:41:28,709 --> 01:41:26,320
professor is saying and actually

2797
01:41:30,629 --> 01:41:28,719
understand it and later i can go through

2798
01:41:32,790 --> 01:41:30,639
the textbook so i never stopped taking

2799
01:41:34,550 --> 01:41:32,800
notes from high school because of that

2800
01:41:35,990 --> 01:41:34,560
i wasn't a good student though by the

2801
01:41:37,669 --> 01:41:36,000
way okay you may wonder how is it that

2802
01:41:39,270 --> 01:41:37,679
if i wasn't a great student was i able

2803
01:41:41,270 --> 01:41:39,280
to finally get my degree well one is

2804
01:41:42,149 --> 01:41:41,280
that i'm great at studying for tests i

2805
01:41:43,590 --> 01:41:42,159
can

2806
01:41:45,590 --> 01:41:43,600
study for a test in two days or three

2807
01:41:46,950 --> 01:41:45,600
days just by going through the material

2808
01:41:48,709 --> 01:41:46,960
obviously i would forget it quite a few

2809
01:41:50,470 --> 01:41:48,719
days later but it was fairly easy for me

2810
01:41:51,590 --> 01:41:50,480
to study for tests still

2811
01:41:53,669 --> 01:41:51,600
it still is

2812
01:41:55,910 --> 01:41:53,679
peter nikolaov says oh man just do it

2813
01:41:57,350 --> 01:41:55,920
the make more than sure your subscribers

2814
01:41:59,109 --> 01:41:57,360
want to hear from you maybe not just

2815
01:42:00,629 --> 01:41:59,119
this q a maybe do an in-depth review on

2816
01:42:01,910 --> 01:42:00,639
what you think of toes

2817
01:42:04,070 --> 01:42:01,920
the toes that have been on your podcast

2818
01:42:06,070 --> 01:42:04,080
so again like i'm betting that the

2819
01:42:08,149 --> 01:42:06,080
innovation is going to come from

2820
01:42:10,629 --> 01:42:08,159
the periphery rather than the scholastic

2821
01:42:12,709 --> 01:42:10,639
center which is why i'm cultivating this

2822
01:42:14,149 --> 01:42:12,719
community it's not me this channel is

2823
01:42:15,590 --> 01:42:14,159
not just me even though my face is on it

2824
01:42:18,070 --> 01:42:15,600
maybe i'll start to

2825
01:42:19,910 --> 01:42:18,080
remove it more and more but the channel

2826
01:42:21,510 --> 01:42:19,920
is about us coming up with the theory of

2827
01:42:22,629 --> 01:42:21,520
everything or at least understanding the

2828
01:42:25,109 --> 01:42:22,639
different theories of everything and

2829
01:42:26,550 --> 01:42:25,119
then contributing

2830
01:42:28,149 --> 01:42:26,560
and perhaps at some point i'll do that

2831
01:42:29,510 --> 01:42:28,159
via live streams on the toe clippings

2832
01:42:31,750 --> 01:42:29,520
channel okay have i tried getting

2833
01:42:33,109 --> 01:42:31,760
roger's pen rolls on rishabs prashat

2834
01:42:34,950 --> 01:42:33,119
says

2835
01:42:36,390 --> 01:42:34,960
yes i've tried i can't get them on i

2836
01:42:37,990 --> 01:42:36,400
don't know how

2837
01:42:39,189 --> 01:42:38,000
i don't want to use brian keating is a

2838
01:42:42,310 --> 01:42:39,199
dear friend of mine i don't want to use

2839
01:42:44,629 --> 01:42:42,320
brian keating's connection for that

2840
01:42:46,390 --> 01:42:44,639
again it's distasteful sometimes to ask

2841
01:42:49,030 --> 01:42:46,400
your friends for connections

2842
01:42:50,470 --> 01:42:49,040
and i know i ask brian for plenty

2843
01:42:52,709 --> 01:42:50,480
and he's such a

2844
01:42:56,229 --> 01:42:52,719
good man he's a great man he's a jovial

2845
01:43:01,510 --> 01:42:58,790
he's a mensch if you

2846
01:43:02,790 --> 01:43:01,520
if you understand some yiddish i think

2847
01:43:04,310 --> 01:43:02,800
it's yiddish but i can't use them for

2848
01:43:06,149 --> 01:43:04,320
that i feel like that's stepping out of

2849
01:43:07,350 --> 01:43:06,159
my bounds rutger palakker says of all

2850
01:43:08,870 --> 01:43:07,360
you've read what book would you

2851
01:43:10,870 --> 01:43:08,880
recommend us to read beside girdle

2852
01:43:12,790 --> 01:43:10,880
escherbach uh beside girl esherbach

2853
01:43:15,270 --> 01:43:12,800
which is right there

2854
01:43:16,709 --> 01:43:15,280
master in his emissary if you're

2855
01:43:18,070 --> 01:43:16,719
it's a polarizing book people love it

2856
01:43:19,270 --> 01:43:18,080
people hate it the proportion of people

2857
01:43:20,870 --> 01:43:19,280
that love it are much greater than those

2858
01:43:22,950 --> 01:43:20,880
that hate it and those that hate it tend

2859
01:43:24,950 --> 01:43:22,960
to have already their worldview made up

2860
01:43:27,030 --> 01:43:24,960
and they say that's foolish that's

2861
01:43:29,669 --> 01:43:27,040
asinine that's imbecilic that's inane

2862
01:43:32,629 --> 01:43:29,679
out the gate and i just despise i don't

2863
01:43:34,149 --> 01:43:32,639
like that i don't see i used i

2864
01:43:36,830 --> 01:43:34,159
part of me not liking it is me not

2865
01:43:40,870 --> 01:43:36,840
liking myself because i used to be like

2866
01:43:45,590 --> 01:43:40,880
that to such a large degree

2867
01:43:49,750 --> 01:43:47,030
and then i see the arrogance of myself

2868
01:43:52,149 --> 01:43:49,760
and in my former self and i i cringe and

2869
01:43:53,830 --> 01:43:52,159
i i don't think it's good for the world

2870
01:43:54,950 --> 01:43:53,840
either way this will

2871
01:43:57,109 --> 01:43:54,960
master in his emissary will

2872
01:43:59,270 --> 01:43:57,119
discombobulate you in hopefully a

2873
01:44:09,910 --> 01:43:59,280
salubrious manner

2874
01:44:14,390 --> 01:44:11,830
to know love is to know god and i don't

2875
01:44:21,510 --> 01:44:16,629
the greatest love i felt and still feel

2876
01:44:24,950 --> 01:44:23,270
it's an experience i can't articulate

2877
01:44:26,550 --> 01:44:24,960
into words and perhaps

2878
01:44:28,709 --> 01:44:26,560
there's a reason for that perhaps it's

2879
01:44:30,229 --> 01:44:28,719
destined to be like that

2880
01:44:32,470 --> 01:44:30,239
perhaps that's the point of it i don't

2881
01:44:34,310 --> 01:44:32,480
know i'm unsure ryan calling says ryan

2882
01:44:36,870 --> 01:44:34,320
colin which is also barfi man for those

2883
01:44:38,550 --> 01:44:36,880
of you who are listening barfi man wants

2884
01:44:40,550 --> 01:44:38,560
to know can you speak about the idea of

2885
01:44:42,629 --> 01:44:40,560
the attention economy is attention the

2886
01:44:43,750 --> 01:44:42,639
fundamental value of consciousness so

2887
01:44:45,750 --> 01:44:43,760
attention

2888
01:44:48,629 --> 01:44:45,760
changes or alters consciousness that

2889
01:44:51,430 --> 01:44:48,639
seems clear it obviously influences what

2890
01:44:54,629 --> 01:44:51,440
enters your perceptive field

2891
01:44:56,709 --> 01:44:54,639
your field of perception that is

2892
01:44:58,149 --> 01:44:56,719
that means that

2893
01:45:00,470 --> 01:44:58,159
in an

2894
01:45:03,109 --> 01:45:00,480
in a fascinating manner attention is

2895
01:45:05,030 --> 01:45:03,119
prior to consciousness which is

2896
01:45:06,709 --> 01:45:05,040
absolutely fascinating

2897
01:45:12,149 --> 01:45:06,719
and i don't think that there's much

2898
01:45:16,790 --> 01:45:14,550
now i do think that a missing ingredient

2899
01:45:19,350 --> 01:45:16,800
to consciousness may be an understanding

2900
01:45:20,149 --> 01:45:19,360
of attention

2901
01:45:21,590 --> 01:45:20,159
you know

2902
01:45:22,470 --> 01:45:21,600
in the same way that

2903
01:45:23,830 --> 01:45:22,480
some

2904
01:45:25,109 --> 01:45:23,840
thought that space time was fundamental

2905
01:45:26,629 --> 01:45:25,119
and then some thought that causality is

2906
01:45:28,550 --> 01:45:26,639
more fundamental than space time i

2907
01:45:31,189 --> 01:45:28,560
wonder if attention is more fundamental

2908
01:45:32,870 --> 01:45:31,199
than consciousness which

2909
01:45:34,149 --> 01:45:32,880
puts a huge hole in all those

2910
01:45:36,950 --> 01:45:34,159
non-duelists who think that

2911
01:45:38,229 --> 01:45:36,960
consciousness is the most fundamental

2912
01:45:39,910 --> 01:45:38,239
and perhaps that's another reason why

2913
01:45:42,830 --> 01:45:39,920
they don't like to talk about it ryan

2914
01:45:45,669 --> 01:45:42,840
collins says what are your thoughts on

2915
01:45:47,830 --> 01:45:45,679
solipsism my thoughts are that it's not

2916
01:45:50,470 --> 01:45:47,840
easily disproved by a rationalist

2917
01:45:52,229 --> 01:45:50,480
or empiricist account

2918
01:45:54,310 --> 01:45:52,239
and that to me like i haven't heard a

2919
01:45:55,750 --> 01:45:54,320
great critique as to why solipsism is

2920
01:45:58,550 --> 01:45:55,760
wrong from a rationalist it doesn't mean

2921
01:46:00,470 --> 01:45:58,560
it doesn't exist i haven't heard it

2922
01:46:03,109 --> 01:46:00,480
and that to me demonstrates a problem

2923
01:46:05,350 --> 01:46:03,119
with rationality or demonstrates the

2924
01:46:07,590 --> 01:46:05,360
solipsism is correct shar okay we're

2925
01:46:08,870 --> 01:46:07,600
getting we're nearing the end sharari

2926
01:46:10,470 --> 01:46:08,880
ronnie says what is your view on

2927
01:46:12,950 --> 01:46:10,480
religion and how is it changed after

2928
01:46:14,790 --> 01:46:12,960
rupert sheldrake i'll get to the chat

2929
01:46:16,149 --> 01:46:14,800
soon okay just a second i want to get

2930
01:46:18,070 --> 01:46:16,159
through some of these questions that

2931
01:46:19,990 --> 01:46:18,080
people have been asking me for quite

2932
01:46:21,830 --> 01:46:20,000
some time so how has my views on the

2933
01:46:25,990 --> 01:46:21,840
supernatural change from rupert

2934
01:46:29,430 --> 01:46:27,350
rupert sheldrake it showed me that

2935
01:46:32,790 --> 01:46:29,440
there's a whole group of people who have

2936
01:46:35,910 --> 01:46:32,800
a disdain for what's supernatural

2937
01:46:37,990 --> 01:46:35,920
that edit on wikipedia

2938
01:46:38,790 --> 01:46:38,000
and that what you learn from wikipedia

2939
01:46:40,390 --> 01:46:38,800
isn't

2940
01:46:41,510 --> 01:46:40,400
the whole truth

2941
01:46:44,070 --> 01:46:41,520
sounds like it's obvious but it's

2942
01:46:45,430 --> 01:46:44,080
actually not that

2943
01:46:47,669 --> 01:46:45,440
these people who identify with being

2944
01:46:51,189 --> 01:46:47,679
skeptics aren't skeptics they're not

2945
01:46:54,390 --> 01:46:51,199
open-minded inquirers of what is

2946
01:46:55,669 --> 01:46:54,400
no matter what is whatever is will be

2947
01:46:57,189 --> 01:46:55,679
it seems like they have an idea of what

2948
01:46:59,189 --> 01:46:57,199
is and they're trying to disprove what

2949
01:47:00,310 --> 01:46:59,199
isn't or what and they have a conception

2950
01:47:01,830 --> 01:47:00,320
of what isn't

2951
01:47:04,310 --> 01:47:01,840
and they're also not willing to update

2952
01:47:05,830 --> 01:47:04,320
their conception of what an is is which

2953
01:47:08,470 --> 01:47:05,840
sounds like a bill clinton statement but

2954
01:47:09,430 --> 01:47:08,480
i'm talking more about ontology

2955
01:47:11,030 --> 01:47:09,440
so

2956
01:47:12,870 --> 01:47:11,040
these people who label themselves as

2957
01:47:14,709 --> 01:47:12,880
skeptics

2958
01:47:17,350 --> 01:47:14,719
demonstrate to me more they demonstrate

2959
01:47:19,189 --> 01:47:17,360
their axiomatic postulates

2960
01:47:20,790 --> 01:47:19,199
more than they demonstrate what's true

2961
01:47:22,310 --> 01:47:20,800
at least to me because

2962
01:47:23,830 --> 01:47:22,320
there is no supernatural maybe there is

2963
01:47:25,430 --> 01:47:23,840
no supernatural maybe it's all natural

2964
01:47:27,590 --> 01:47:25,440
but then you need to update what natural

2965
01:47:29,830 --> 01:47:27,600
is so maybe it is possible for people to

2966
01:47:31,350 --> 01:47:29,840
communicate psychically

2967
01:47:32,790 --> 01:47:31,360
i don't know it doesn't seem like it at

2968
01:47:34,149 --> 01:47:32,800
least from the evidence that i've seen

2969
01:47:35,669 --> 01:47:34,159
but or the non-evidence that i've seen

2970
01:47:37,669 --> 01:47:35,679
but i still have to look into it and i'm

2971
01:47:39,669 --> 01:47:37,679
willing to look into it and so many

2972
01:47:41,350 --> 01:47:39,679
skeptics have their mind made up as to

2973
01:47:43,350 --> 01:47:41,360
how is this wrong how is this wrong how

2974
01:47:45,189 --> 01:47:43,360
is this wrong and then if it's not wrong

2975
01:47:47,270 --> 01:47:45,199
then they'll say well there is something

2976
01:47:48,470 --> 01:47:47,280
wrong somewhere with the setup and i

2977
01:47:50,390 --> 01:47:48,480
just don't know what it is but you

2978
01:47:51,830 --> 01:47:50,400
clearly cheated

2979
01:47:53,350 --> 01:47:51,840
okay someone's saying what economic

2980
01:47:56,790 --> 01:47:53,360
system do we do you think we should have

2981
01:47:58,310 --> 01:47:56,800
i don't know that's a complicated

2982
01:47:59,510 --> 01:47:58,320
people think physics is complicated or

2983
01:48:01,030 --> 01:47:59,520
math is complicated but i think

2984
01:48:02,830 --> 01:48:01,040
economics and political theory is far

2985
01:48:04,629 --> 01:48:02,840
more complicated because the amount of

2986
01:48:06,310 --> 01:48:04,639
variables you have what's called

2987
01:48:08,310 --> 01:48:06,320
aggregatory feedback or at least i call

2988
01:48:09,910 --> 01:48:08,320
it that which means you get a yes or no

2989
01:48:11,669 --> 01:48:09,920
you get a ping did it work or did not

2990
01:48:13,510 --> 01:48:11,679
work but you have no idea which one of

2991
01:48:15,189 --> 01:48:13,520
the factors influenced it it's difficult

2992
01:48:17,669 --> 01:48:15,199
to do double-blind tests

2993
01:48:19,430 --> 01:48:17,679
sh money it's called sh money says hi

2994
01:48:20,950 --> 01:48:19,440
kurt i was pleasantly surprised to find

2995
01:48:22,470 --> 01:48:20,960
out you were trinidadian in the bernardo

2996
01:48:25,430 --> 01:48:22,480
castro interview which was your best i

2997
01:48:27,270 --> 01:48:25,440
think i think so as well thank you

2998
01:48:28,870 --> 01:48:27,280
although the ian mcgill chris interview

2999
01:48:30,470 --> 01:48:28,880
to me is pushing it

3000
01:48:31,910 --> 01:48:30,480
i myself was born in guyana so it's

3001
01:48:33,830 --> 01:48:31,920
great great to see someone from the west

3002
01:48:35,669 --> 01:48:33,840
indie community grapple with such topics

3003
01:48:37,030 --> 01:48:35,679
and do so thoughtfully as well just

3004
01:48:39,030 --> 01:48:37,040
wanted to say you're doing a really

3005
01:48:41,510 --> 01:48:39,040
great job thank you thank you thank you

3006
01:48:42,390 --> 01:48:41,520
anyways my question

3007
01:48:45,669 --> 01:48:42,400
are

3008
01:48:46,390 --> 01:48:45,679
grow up with were you born in trinidad

3009
01:48:47,430 --> 01:48:46,400
and

3010
01:48:49,350 --> 01:48:47,440
do you think it's important to honor

3011
01:48:50,709 --> 01:48:49,360
both systems of the east and the west

3012
01:48:52,950 --> 01:48:50,719
and then he says ps if you're ever in

3013
01:48:56,709 --> 01:48:52,960
queens i would love to grab a chat

3014
01:49:00,229 --> 01:48:58,149
the religion i grew up with was

3015
01:49:02,950 --> 01:49:00,239
christianity non-denomination but then

3016
01:49:07,830 --> 01:49:02,960
when i was eight i became an atheist

3017
01:49:11,189 --> 01:49:09,350
well

3018
01:49:12,550 --> 01:49:11,199
i was questioning the origins of the

3019
01:49:14,310 --> 01:49:12,560
universe and my brother who was studying

3020
01:49:15,990 --> 01:49:14,320
physics at the time told me about

3021
01:49:18,550 --> 01:49:16,000
quantum fluctuations and to me that

3022
01:49:20,470 --> 01:49:18,560
solved it and i remember

3023
01:49:21,750 --> 01:49:20,480
not vividly but almost vividly being at

3024
01:49:23,990 --> 01:49:21,760
home on my

3025
01:49:25,990 --> 01:49:24,000
bed looking at the ceiling

3026
01:49:28,550 --> 01:49:26,000
thinking that aha then that means that

3027
01:49:30,149 --> 01:49:28,560
there is no need for god

3028
01:49:32,550 --> 01:49:30,159
then i became

3029
01:49:33,589 --> 01:49:32,560
an arrogant atheist let's say which is

3030
01:49:35,350 --> 01:49:33,599
usually

3031
01:49:38,070 --> 01:49:35,360
the path one goes down they don't just

3032
01:49:42,550 --> 01:49:38,080
become a a huge a humble atheist let's

3033
01:49:46,709 --> 01:49:44,629
as for

3034
01:49:48,149 --> 01:49:46,719
east versus west and incorporating them

3035
01:49:49,830 --> 01:49:48,159
see this is super interesting super

3036
01:49:52,310 --> 01:49:49,840
super interesting because people will

3037
01:49:54,870 --> 01:49:52,320
say hey what we need is to incorporate

3038
01:49:56,790 --> 01:49:54,880
more of the east into the west

3039
01:49:58,470 --> 01:49:56,800
and they tend to be these people who are

3040
01:50:00,070 --> 01:49:58,480
high in openness again the personality

3041
01:50:01,669 --> 01:50:00,080
traits and you don't hear them

3042
01:50:04,070 --> 01:50:01,679
advocating much for the western approach

3043
01:50:05,189 --> 01:50:04,080
to be in the east so that's a huge gap

3044
01:50:07,350 --> 01:50:05,199
that i see

3045
01:50:08,790 --> 01:50:07,360
in their approach

3046
01:50:11,430 --> 01:50:08,800
which says that all religions are

3047
01:50:13,189 --> 01:50:11,440
equally true in some manner well

3048
01:50:15,990 --> 01:50:13,199
you're not advocating for the opposite

3049
01:50:17,669 --> 01:50:16,000
so to me it shows their bias all along

3050
01:50:20,870 --> 01:50:17,679
as well as when they say the types that

3051
01:50:23,589 --> 01:50:20,880
say that that they like

3052
01:50:27,030 --> 01:50:23,599
the eastern approaches

3053
01:50:29,270 --> 01:50:27,040
be integrated more with the

3054
01:50:31,109 --> 01:50:29,280
western ones they tend to focus almost

3055
01:50:34,070 --> 01:50:31,119
solely on the eastern ones and meditate

3056
01:50:35,109 --> 01:50:34,080
for three hours a day and say that all

3057
01:50:41,189 --> 01:50:35,119
is

3058
01:50:43,510 --> 01:50:41,199
being reborn

3059
01:50:44,629 --> 01:50:43,520
and

3060
01:50:47,830 --> 01:50:44,639
whatever it may be that are the

3061
01:50:50,870 --> 01:50:47,840
traditional dictums of the east

3062
01:50:52,149 --> 01:50:50,880
oh sorry decedarata of the east i

3063
01:50:53,990 --> 01:50:52,159
view it a bit differently i think that

3064
01:50:55,430 --> 01:50:54,000
that may be an approach incorporating

3065
01:50:56,870 --> 01:50:55,440
the east and to the west for people who

3066
01:50:58,070 --> 01:50:56,880
are high in openness and mostly those

3067
01:50:59,990 --> 01:50:58,080
who are watching are high in openness

3068
01:51:01,990 --> 01:51:00,000
you're most most likely in the 95th

3069
01:51:03,669 --> 01:51:02,000
percentile of openness

3070
01:51:05,350 --> 01:51:03,679
or 90th at least

3071
01:51:06,790 --> 01:51:05,360
but that doesn't mean that your approach

3072
01:51:09,430 --> 01:51:06,800
works for everyone and this is something

3073
01:51:10,790 --> 01:51:09,440
that i find so funny fascinating is that

3074
01:51:13,430 --> 01:51:10,800
people think what works for them should

3075
01:51:16,390 --> 01:51:13,440
work for everyone

3076
01:51:18,229 --> 01:51:16,400
and i tend to view it as

3077
01:51:19,270 --> 01:51:18,239
see the western tradition

3078
01:51:21,669 --> 01:51:19,280
and the eastern tradition for the

3079
01:51:23,510 --> 01:51:21,679
easterners the western tradition for now

3080
01:51:26,149 --> 01:51:23,520
is in our bones it's in the way that we

3081
01:51:27,189 --> 01:51:26,159
walk and we talk and we see and we

3082
01:51:28,550 --> 01:51:27,199
think

3083
01:51:30,390 --> 01:51:28,560
it's definitely in the way that we see

3084
01:51:32,149 --> 01:51:30,400
because your goals are influenced by you

3085
01:51:34,070 --> 01:51:32,159
and your culture as well as that's

3086
01:51:36,550 --> 01:51:34,080
influenced by the history of your

3087
01:51:38,629 --> 01:51:36,560
religion so the west judeo-christian so

3088
01:51:40,950 --> 01:51:38,639
it's inside you it's inside you to a

3089
01:51:43,350 --> 01:51:40,960
degree that you have no clue

3090
01:51:45,270 --> 01:51:43,360
it's in your bones it's in your sinew

3091
01:51:47,350 --> 01:51:45,280
and same with the east

3092
01:51:48,790 --> 01:51:47,360
and then to say that

3093
01:51:50,550 --> 01:51:48,800
well what we can do is take an eastern

3094
01:51:52,390 --> 01:51:50,560
approach and apply it to a westerner

3095
01:51:54,310 --> 01:51:52,400
well that to me is like saying you can

3096
01:51:56,950 --> 01:51:54,320
take a windows program and put it on a

3097
01:51:58,709 --> 01:51:56,960
mac or vice versa they may be the same

3098
01:52:00,870 --> 01:51:58,719
program solving the same

3099
01:52:03,350 --> 01:52:00,880
problem giving the same solution but you

3100
01:52:04,629 --> 01:52:03,360
can't run them

3101
01:52:07,189 --> 01:52:04,639
and that may be another reason why

3102
01:52:10,629 --> 01:52:07,199
people in the west find nihilism to be

3103
01:52:11,669 --> 01:52:10,639
so abhorrent because in the east well

3104
01:52:14,070 --> 01:52:11,679
they're like

3105
01:52:17,669 --> 01:52:14,080
they're okay with nihilism in in some

3106
01:52:18,790 --> 01:52:17,679
regard but in the west that's not us so

3107
01:52:21,750 --> 01:52:18,800
to give a

3108
01:52:23,510 --> 01:52:21,760
nihilistic eastern philosophy

3109
01:52:25,350 --> 01:52:23,520
it's horrible for people some people

3110
01:52:27,669 --> 01:52:25,360
momentarily it's freeing because if you

3111
01:52:29,270 --> 01:52:27,679
say there is no free will it's illusory

3112
01:52:31,430 --> 01:52:29,280
then that's

3113
01:52:32,270 --> 01:52:31,440
paradoxically freeing in some respect

3114
01:52:34,070 --> 01:52:32,280
because you're no longer

3115
01:52:35,430 --> 01:52:34,080
self-flagellating and

3116
01:52:37,990 --> 01:52:35,440
self-mortifying

3117
01:52:39,990 --> 01:52:38,000
but in the long run you then dive into

3118
01:52:41,510 --> 01:52:40,000
an abyss

3119
01:52:43,189 --> 01:52:41,520
and it's and i don't think people take

3120
01:52:45,589 --> 01:52:43,199
that into account i think that people

3121
01:52:47,830 --> 01:52:45,599
think if it's a solution it's a solution

3122
01:52:49,750 --> 01:52:47,840
and we can run this program on any we

3123
01:52:51,990 --> 01:52:49,760
can emulate it anywhere it might not be

3124
01:52:53,510 --> 01:52:52,000
like that it might be but it might not

3125
01:52:54,310 --> 01:52:53,520
and i just

3126
01:52:56,470 --> 01:52:54,320
well

3127
01:52:58,950 --> 01:52:56,480
as for the offer and getting a drink in

3128
01:53:00,629 --> 01:52:58,960
queens thank you i'm going back to the

3129
01:53:01,990 --> 01:53:00,639
questions which are almost complete now

3130
01:53:03,510 --> 01:53:02,000
okay what are your views on islam does

3131
01:53:06,470 --> 01:53:03,520
islam promote violence this person wants

3132
01:53:10,950 --> 01:53:06,480
to get me demonetized well i'll say this

3133
01:53:16,310 --> 01:53:15,109
it seems clear to me that some sects

3134
01:53:19,030 --> 01:53:16,320
or some

3135
01:53:20,950 --> 01:53:19,040
subsets of sects do promote violence it

3136
01:53:23,189 --> 01:53:20,960
also seems clear to me

3137
01:53:25,109 --> 01:53:23,199
that many don't it also seems clear to

3138
01:53:27,189 --> 01:53:25,119
me that their interpretations of islam

3139
01:53:30,550 --> 01:53:27,199
that are just as peaceful as any other

3140
01:53:32,149 --> 01:53:30,560
interpretation of any religion

3141
01:53:33,830 --> 01:53:32,159
then you get into the problem of what

3142
01:53:35,990 --> 01:53:33,840
defines islam

3143
01:53:37,750 --> 01:53:36,000
so this is tricky so see to me

3144
01:53:39,270 --> 01:53:37,760
this my view on it does islam promote

3145
01:53:41,430 --> 01:53:39,280
violence isn't more

3146
01:53:43,030 --> 01:53:41,440
sam harris is more observational or

3147
01:53:44,629 --> 01:53:43,040
operation actually it's more

3148
01:53:46,870 --> 01:53:44,639
observational in the sense that okay

3149
01:53:48,870 --> 01:53:46,880
let's look at the sum total of people

3150
01:53:51,430 --> 01:53:48,880
who identify with being

3151
01:53:52,550 --> 01:53:51,440
muslim and then let's see

3152
01:53:53,990 --> 01:53:52,560
how

3153
01:53:56,310 --> 01:53:54,000
readily are they willing to harm an

3154
01:53:59,510 --> 01:53:56,320
infidel and then let's judge the

3155
01:54:01,750 --> 01:53:59,520
religion based on that okay so what does

3156
01:54:03,830 --> 01:54:01,760
the religion

3157
01:54:05,350 --> 01:54:03,840
mean do we judge it by the followers of

3158
01:54:07,430 --> 01:54:05,360
the quran what is the definition of

3159
01:54:10,070 --> 01:54:07,440
islam is it the current followers of the

3160
01:54:11,910 --> 01:54:10,080
quran is it the current islamic leaders

3161
01:54:13,189 --> 01:54:11,920
and what they say much like catholicism

3162
01:54:14,790 --> 01:54:13,199
depends on the pope

3163
01:54:16,790 --> 01:54:14,800
what does it mean to follow the quran

3164
01:54:19,189 --> 01:54:16,800
that's an interesting question

3165
01:54:20,950 --> 01:54:19,199
okay so here's

3166
01:54:22,790 --> 01:54:20,960
here's one perspective

3167
01:54:30,390 --> 01:54:22,800
do you judge a religion by what the

3168
01:54:35,030 --> 01:54:31,910
see

3169
01:54:37,109 --> 01:54:35,040
old kurt let's say would say yes but

3170
01:54:40,070 --> 01:54:37,119
then kierkegaard came about

3171
01:54:42,390 --> 01:54:40,080
and kierkegaard went against the

3172
01:54:45,030 --> 01:54:42,400
conventions of christianity at the time

3173
01:54:46,629 --> 01:54:45,040
and was even critiqued for it but yet i

3174
01:54:48,550 --> 01:54:46,639
would say kierkegaard had a truer

3175
01:54:50,149 --> 01:54:48,560
understanding of christianity than the

3176
01:54:51,910 --> 01:54:50,159
majority of the christians at the time

3177
01:54:54,709 --> 01:54:51,920
so then that's interesting what the heck

3178
01:54:56,629 --> 01:54:54,719
does that mean that someone can have

3179
01:54:58,790 --> 01:54:56,639
someone can have access to a more true

3180
01:55:00,550 --> 01:54:58,800
or it can espouse or can

3181
01:55:02,550 --> 01:55:00,560
explicate or can

3182
01:55:03,990 --> 01:55:02,560
cultivate or materialize or elaborate on

3183
01:55:35,109 --> 01:55:04,000
a

3184
01:55:36,470 --> 01:55:35,119
to blow up someone's own

3185
01:55:37,910 --> 01:55:36,480
you can take it practically like that

3186
01:55:39,830 --> 01:55:37,920
but i'm taking it philosophically what

3187
01:55:43,669 --> 01:55:39,840
does it mean to be a muslim what does it

3188
01:55:46,629 --> 01:55:45,270
it's not easy that's what i would say i

3189
01:55:48,229 --> 01:55:46,639
don't know

3190
01:55:49,669 --> 01:55:48,239
sid how many hours a day do you study do

3191
01:55:51,189 --> 01:55:49,679
you find it difficult studying math he

3192
01:55:52,790 --> 01:55:51,199
finds it difficult studying math for

3193
01:55:54,070 --> 01:55:52,800
more than four hours a day and he used

3194
01:55:55,830 --> 01:55:54,080
to be able to study for more than six

3195
01:55:58,390 --> 01:55:55,840
hours when he was at his most productive

3196
01:55:59,910 --> 01:55:58,400
so for me i study almost all the time i

3197
01:56:01,750 --> 01:55:59,920
wouldn't say it's math i try to study

3198
01:56:03,510 --> 01:56:01,760
for almost every waking hour that i can

3199
01:56:05,510 --> 01:56:03,520
unless i'm with my wife all i'm doing is

3200
01:56:07,350 --> 01:56:05,520
i'm with my wife or i'm studying working

3201
01:56:09,669 --> 01:56:07,360
in some way shape or form

3202
01:56:11,430 --> 01:56:09,679
i can study math if i'm

3203
01:56:13,669 --> 01:56:11,440
feeling absolutely productive i can

3204
01:56:15,430 --> 01:56:13,679
study it for 10 hours straight most of

3205
01:56:16,229 --> 01:56:15,440
the time is four hours and then there's

3206
01:56:30,709 --> 01:56:16,239
a

3207
01:56:32,550 --> 01:56:30,719
on in buildings otherwise i'm

3208
01:56:34,550 --> 01:56:32,560
diminishing my eyesight and i feel it

3209
01:56:36,070 --> 01:56:34,560
eye strain each day worse and worse

3210
01:56:39,830 --> 01:56:36,080
especially yesterday especially

3211
01:56:44,310 --> 01:56:42,709
okay someone says so euphoric 87 what do

3212
01:56:45,669 --> 01:56:44,320
you think led to your existential

3213
01:56:46,870 --> 01:56:45,679
curiosity and why do you think so many

3214
01:56:48,470 --> 01:56:46,880
people don't have an interest in

3215
01:56:50,149 --> 01:56:48,480
pondering the nature of things well most

3216
01:56:52,709 --> 01:56:50,159
people aren't high in openness so that's

3217
01:56:53,990 --> 01:56:52,719
why that's a as for my existential

3218
01:56:55,589 --> 01:56:54,000
curiosity i've had that since i was

3219
01:56:57,270 --> 01:56:55,599
eight like i mentioned what happened was

3220
01:56:58,390 --> 01:56:57,280
i asked my brother about the origins of

3221
01:56:59,589 --> 01:56:58,400
the universe and how can something come

3222
01:57:01,189 --> 01:56:59,599
from nothing and he mentioned quantum

3223
01:57:02,709 --> 01:57:01,199
fluctuations it's not a complete answer

3224
01:57:04,470 --> 01:57:02,719
but he mentioned it

3225
01:57:10,629 --> 01:57:04,480
and i remember thinking ah that's

3226
01:57:14,950 --> 01:57:12,310
well ever since then i

3227
01:57:16,709 --> 01:57:14,960
became interested in physics and

3228
01:57:18,790 --> 01:57:16,719
and existential questions

3229
01:57:20,790 --> 01:57:18,800
okay which of your guests have you found

3230
01:57:23,109 --> 01:57:20,800
most compelling so far

3231
01:57:24,390 --> 01:57:23,119
bernardo castro and ian mcgillcrist

3232
01:57:27,750 --> 01:57:24,400
which interpretations of quantum

3233
01:57:29,669 --> 01:57:27,760
mechanics do you lean toward and prefer

3234
01:57:31,589 --> 01:57:29,679
have you tried any meditation if so how

3235
01:57:32,709 --> 01:57:31,599
have you found it okay i've tried many

3236
01:57:34,070 --> 01:57:32,719
meditations

3237
01:57:37,189 --> 01:57:34,080
many different types of meditation i'm

3238
01:57:39,510 --> 01:57:37,199
getting loopy here just so you know

3239
01:57:43,109 --> 01:57:39,520
i'm wearing thin

3240
01:57:46,390 --> 01:57:45,030
i'm trying to hold on to the questions

3241
01:57:47,830 --> 01:57:46,400
one was the interpretation of quantum

3242
01:57:49,830 --> 01:57:47,840
mechanics and the meditation so

3243
01:57:51,270 --> 01:57:49,840
interpretations i don't lean toward any

3244
01:57:52,870 --> 01:57:51,280
i lean away from one which is many

3245
01:57:54,709 --> 01:57:52,880
worlds i lean away from that although

3246
01:57:56,229 --> 01:57:54,719
i'm not convinced that it's false i tend

3247
01:57:58,229 --> 01:57:56,239
to lean away from it mainly for a

3248
01:58:00,070 --> 01:57:58,239
psychological reason that i think the

3249
01:58:01,589 --> 01:58:00,080
reason for coming up with it has nothing

3250
01:58:03,750 --> 01:58:01,599
to do with physics but more has to do

3251
01:58:05,270 --> 01:58:03,760
with one abdicating one's

3252
01:58:07,750 --> 01:58:05,280
personal responsibility and what i mean

3253
01:58:09,669 --> 01:58:07,760
by that is it's the epitome of that

3254
01:58:11,030 --> 01:58:09,679
think about i tend to think that you're

3255
01:58:12,790 --> 01:58:11,040
special who you're listening to this

3256
01:58:15,189 --> 01:58:12,800
who's listening you listening to this is

3257
01:58:16,470 --> 01:58:15,199
you are special you can change the world

3258
01:58:17,990 --> 01:58:16,480
you can change the world for good you

3259
01:58:19,030 --> 01:58:18,000
can change the world for

3260
01:58:20,390 --> 01:58:19,040
evil

3261
01:58:22,070 --> 01:58:20,400
and i

3262
01:58:24,070 --> 01:58:22,080
do think the world centers around you in

3263
01:58:25,990 --> 01:58:24,080
some strange manner in the same way that

3264
01:58:26,950 --> 01:58:26,000
we're the center of the universe but

3265
01:58:28,709 --> 01:58:26,960
we're not

3266
01:58:30,629 --> 01:58:28,719
because there's many centers so it's as

3267
01:58:32,470 --> 01:58:30,639
if there's multiple centers and that's a

3268
01:58:34,870 --> 01:58:32,480
that's a strange paradox but i don't

3269
01:58:36,709 --> 01:58:34,880
know how to solve that antinomy but i

3270
01:58:38,229 --> 01:58:36,719
think it's true in some manner and i see

3271
01:58:40,790 --> 01:58:38,239
the many world's interpretation as being

3272
01:58:42,550 --> 01:58:40,800
the ultimate of the copernican statement

3273
01:58:43,669 --> 01:58:42,560
of you're not special you're not special

3274
01:58:46,070 --> 01:58:43,679
you're not special which by the way

3275
01:58:47,430 --> 01:58:46,080
copernicus was wrong you can make a

3276
01:58:48,870 --> 01:58:47,440
frame of reference where the earth is

3277
01:58:50,709 --> 01:58:48,880
still and the rest of the universe is

3278
01:58:53,350 --> 01:58:50,719
rotating around it with general

3279
01:58:54,790 --> 01:58:53,360
relativity quite easily so just so you

3280
01:58:56,070 --> 01:58:54,800
know there's no preferred way of

3281
01:58:57,830 --> 01:58:56,080
thinking about which one is spinning

3282
01:58:59,910 --> 01:58:57,840
around which even though he's venerated

3283
01:59:01,990 --> 01:58:59,920
as being the exemplar of science

3284
01:59:03,350 --> 01:59:02,000
prevailing over the church's dogma i see

3285
01:59:04,950 --> 01:59:03,360
the many world's interpretation as the

3286
01:59:07,669 --> 01:59:04,960
epitome of someone who wants to say that

3287
01:59:09,030 --> 01:59:07,679
you're not special

3288
01:59:11,510 --> 01:59:09,040
what's not special well you're a dust

3289
01:59:13,030 --> 01:59:11,520
mode amongst a cloud amongst a whole

3290
01:59:15,030 --> 01:59:13,040
hurricane that constitutes your galaxy

3291
01:59:16,629 --> 01:59:15,040
amongst many planets that constitute the

3292
01:59:18,310 --> 01:59:16,639
universe and so on

3293
01:59:19,990 --> 01:59:18,320
and then what's even less special than

3294
01:59:22,950 --> 01:59:20,000
that well there's many of them and none

3295
01:59:25,990 --> 01:59:24,470
i think the world does revolve around

3296
01:59:27,910 --> 01:59:26,000
you in some manner though

3297
01:59:30,070 --> 01:59:27,920
i think that each lie that you say

3298
01:59:32,870 --> 01:59:30,080
replicates i think that each good act

3299
01:59:34,229 --> 01:59:32,880
you do replicates

3300
01:59:36,550 --> 01:59:34,239
it replicates it replicates it

3301
01:59:37,750 --> 01:59:36,560
replicates so do good as best you can do

3302
01:59:39,430 --> 01:59:37,760
good as best you can admit when you're

3303
01:59:41,910 --> 01:59:39,440
wrong as best you can

3304
01:59:43,589 --> 01:59:41,920
say sorry when you're sorry

3305
01:59:46,310 --> 01:59:43,599
as best you can

3306
01:59:49,669 --> 01:59:46,320
forget your ego be humble

3307
01:59:54,629 --> 01:59:50,790
so

3308
01:59:55,830 --> 01:59:54,639
has nothing to do with physics

3309
01:59:57,189 --> 01:59:55,840
it has to do with psychology and that's

3310
01:59:58,550 --> 01:59:57,199
correct that's why i'm not saying that

3311
02:00:00,149 --> 01:59:58,560
many worlds is incorrect i'm saying i

3312
02:00:01,669 --> 02:00:00,159
lean away from it but i'm not wholly

3313
02:00:05,589 --> 02:00:01,679
convinced that it's incorrect i'm still

3314
02:00:07,910 --> 02:00:05,599
open to it cute kimus thank you so much

3315
02:00:10,149 --> 02:00:07,920
i don't know if you have a question

3316
02:00:11,109 --> 02:00:10,159
george scott says congrats kurt you can

3317
02:00:12,470 --> 02:00:11,119
see that we're getting toward then

3318
02:00:14,149 --> 02:00:12,480
because i'm at an s and this was sorted

3319
02:00:15,510 --> 02:00:14,159
alphabetically congrats kurt i have a

3320
02:00:16,550 --> 02:00:15,520
question for you

3321
02:00:18,149 --> 02:00:16,560
that pertains to your thoughts in

3322
02:00:19,430 --> 02:00:18,159
reality do you believe that there's only

3323
02:00:21,350 --> 02:00:19,440
matter or only mental states or

3324
02:00:23,030 --> 02:00:21,360
something in between

3325
02:00:24,629 --> 02:00:23,040
after interviewing so many intellectuals

3326
02:00:26,470 --> 02:00:24,639
how do you think about consciousness

3327
02:00:27,830 --> 02:00:26,480
okay so i'm unsure if there's only

3328
02:00:30,310 --> 02:00:27,840
matter i'm unsure if there are only

3329
02:00:33,350 --> 02:00:30,320
mental states i'm unsure of what mind or

3330
02:00:35,589 --> 02:00:33,360
matter is as well as okay as for the

3331
02:00:37,510 --> 02:00:35,599
my take on consciousness my take is is

3332
02:00:40,870 --> 02:00:37,520
that people who say that they have their

3333
02:00:43,990 --> 02:00:42,390
in some ways i like it because i want to

3334
02:00:47,430 --> 02:00:44,000
know their theories but in some ways i

3335
02:00:49,990 --> 02:00:47,440
find it extremely organized let's say or

3336
02:00:51,589 --> 02:00:50,000
haughty haughty let's say there's 50

3337
02:00:52,950 --> 02:00:51,599
there's maybe 20 to 50 different

3338
02:00:54,550 --> 02:00:52,960
theories of consciousness and when i

3339
02:00:55,910 --> 02:00:54,560
bring it and i do and i bring this up

3340
02:00:57,910 --> 02:00:55,920
much like the theories of everything to

3341
02:00:59,910 --> 02:00:57,920
the physicist i bring up the theories of

3342
02:01:01,109 --> 02:00:59,920
consciousness to the individual guests

3343
02:01:02,629 --> 02:01:01,119
and i say can you comment to this can

3344
02:01:04,149 --> 02:01:02,639
comment on this king and often they

3345
02:01:05,270 --> 02:01:04,159
could say oh i can't comment on that one

3346
02:01:06,790 --> 02:01:05,280
because i don't know that one don't know

3347
02:01:08,550 --> 02:01:06,800
how can you say you have the correct one

3348
02:01:10,470 --> 02:01:08,560
if you don't know the rest

3349
02:01:12,870 --> 02:01:10,480
i don't understand that

3350
02:01:14,790 --> 02:01:12,880
there are competing theories that seem

3351
02:01:17,510 --> 02:01:14,800
to be self-consistent and you should at

3352
02:01:24,149 --> 02:01:17,520
least know all it's not that hard it

3353
02:01:27,430 --> 02:01:26,229
the rmm says how do you manage to get

3354
02:01:28,950 --> 02:01:27,440
such famous thinkers to give you the

3355
02:01:31,270 --> 02:01:28,960
time of the day well i

3356
02:01:32,709 --> 02:01:31,280
do so with luck and persistence and each

3357
02:01:34,709 --> 02:01:32,719
feeds off the last so for example when i

3358
02:01:36,310 --> 02:01:34,719
got gnome pinker finally said yes

3359
02:01:37,750 --> 02:01:36,320
because pinker said no then i emailed

3360
02:01:39,830 --> 02:01:37,760
pinker again i said hey pinker i know

3361
02:01:42,390 --> 02:01:39,840
you said no but noam chomsky just came

3362
02:01:44,390 --> 02:01:42,400
on and it tended to do well i mean it

3363
02:01:45,830 --> 02:01:44,400
did fairly well so do you mind coming on

3364
02:01:46,629 --> 02:01:45,840
he said yes i can find some time for

3365
02:01:55,589 --> 02:01:46,639
that

3366
02:01:59,189 --> 02:01:55,599
it's

3367
02:02:00,550 --> 02:01:59,199
i'm losing my own trains of thought i'm

3368
02:02:02,390 --> 02:02:00,560
becoming witty

3369
02:02:03,750 --> 02:02:02,400
the whole point i'll read the question

3370
02:02:05,189 --> 02:02:03,760
to you and then maybe

3371
02:02:07,189 --> 02:02:05,199
i can try and answer it the whole

3372
02:02:08,950 --> 02:02:07,199
punching up and punching down i find a

3373
02:02:10,950 --> 02:02:08,960
lot of people like to make fun and bully

3374
02:02:13,189 --> 02:02:10,960
white people or any majority class when

3375
02:02:14,629 --> 02:02:13,199
the person on the receiving end is not

3376
02:02:16,709 --> 02:02:14,639
and the person on the receiving end is

3377
02:02:18,229 --> 02:02:16,719
not taken kindly to it i understand some

3378
02:02:21,350 --> 02:02:18,239
part of it but it feels like bullying

3379
02:02:22,550 --> 02:02:21,360
rude racist behavior

3380
02:02:24,390 --> 02:02:22,560
except they're justifying by saying

3381
02:02:25,910 --> 02:02:24,400
they're punching up and that doesn't

3382
02:02:27,510 --> 02:02:25,920
have social repercussions or they say it

3383
02:02:35,189 --> 02:02:27,520
doesn't i don't understand it should we

3384
02:02:38,950 --> 02:02:37,109
there's a quote that people will do

3385
02:02:42,550 --> 02:02:38,960
anything no matter how absurd in order

3386
02:02:46,870 --> 02:02:44,470
i'll say that and i'll let you interpret

3387
02:02:50,310 --> 02:02:46,880
it as you will

3388
02:02:51,270 --> 02:02:50,320
voyager says kurt can you interview

3389
02:02:53,030 --> 02:02:51,280
commander

3390
02:02:54,709 --> 02:02:53,040
david fravor he's the guy who chased the

3391
02:02:56,390 --> 02:02:54,719
ufo off the coast of san diego and

3392
02:02:58,149 --> 02:02:56,400
fighter jet he was an extremely credible

3393
02:02:59,830 --> 02:02:58,159
witness yes i would love to interview

3394
02:03:01,350 --> 02:02:59,840
him however i don't have any questions

3395
02:03:03,430 --> 02:03:01,360
that lex didn't cover

3396
02:03:05,830 --> 02:03:03,440
lex did a wonderful interview with david

3397
02:03:06,950 --> 02:03:05,840
fravor and if you can think of any spots

3398
02:03:08,870 --> 02:03:06,960
that

3399
02:03:10,550 --> 02:03:08,880
are needing to be filled

3400
02:03:12,310 --> 02:03:10,560
or different angles please let me know

3401
02:03:14,790 --> 02:03:12,320
that's the main issue when people

3402
02:03:16,390 --> 02:03:14,800
request guests or famous guests what do

3403
02:03:17,669 --> 02:03:16,400
you want me to ask them i know sometimes

3404
02:03:19,109 --> 02:03:17,679
people just say well i want you to talk

3405
02:03:20,550 --> 02:03:19,119
to them yeah that's not helpful it's not

3406
02:03:22,950 --> 02:03:20,560
helpful for me because i already have a

3407
02:03:24,390 --> 02:03:22,960
list of almost maybe 200 people to talk

3408
02:03:25,990 --> 02:03:24,400
to

3409
02:03:27,350 --> 02:03:26,000
so please give help me out and give me

3410
02:03:28,950 --> 02:03:27,360
an angle someone says do you think you

3411
02:03:31,830 --> 02:03:28,960
can you can get a conversation with lex

3412
02:03:35,430 --> 02:03:33,109
i don't have any

3413
02:03:37,830 --> 02:03:35,440
any interesting information to give lex

3414
02:03:39,990 --> 02:03:37,840
i am not a great interviewer sorry

3415
02:03:42,709 --> 02:03:40,000
interviewee probably not interviewer

3416
02:03:44,550 --> 02:03:42,719
either but

3417
02:03:46,229 --> 02:03:44,560
lex is probably best getting someone

3418
02:03:47,430 --> 02:03:46,239
else if you're interested in seeing me

3419
02:03:49,030 --> 02:03:47,440
on lex

3420
02:03:51,109 --> 02:03:49,040
or on any platform it's best to then

3421
02:03:53,430 --> 02:03:51,119
mention me on the discord on his discord

3422
02:03:54,550 --> 02:03:53,440
on or on his youtube channel or on his

3423
02:03:56,069 --> 02:03:54,560
reddit

3424
02:03:57,270 --> 02:03:56,079
just mention me mention or on his

3425
02:03:59,589 --> 02:03:57,280
twitter feed because i know he reads

3426
02:04:01,589 --> 02:03:59,599
those so if you're interested then

3427
02:04:03,350 --> 02:04:01,599
that's the only way that i could see it

3428
02:04:06,229 --> 02:04:03,360
being done though i'd imagine that i

3429
02:04:07,990 --> 02:04:06,239
wouldn't have anything intelligent or

3430
02:04:08,870 --> 02:04:08,000
coherent to say

3431
02:04:12,310 --> 02:04:08,880
all right

3432
02:04:13,910 --> 02:04:12,320
i'll just answer the last question now

3433
02:04:15,669 --> 02:04:13,920
wolf winter says what is currently

3434
02:04:17,830 --> 02:04:15,679
stopping you from accepting idealism as

3435
02:04:19,589 --> 02:04:17,840
the best ontology specifically bernardo

3436
02:04:27,030 --> 02:04:19,599
castro's

3437
02:04:32,629 --> 02:04:29,350
i have to understand it more

3438
02:04:34,550 --> 02:04:32,639
see if someone talks to me about it

3439
02:04:36,950 --> 02:04:34,560
i think i can give an explanation that

3440
02:04:38,550 --> 02:04:36,960
would be on par with not on par but i

3441
02:04:40,470 --> 02:04:38,560
would give an explanation that bernardo

3442
02:04:42,229 --> 02:04:40,480
would approve of but that's not enough i

3443
02:04:43,990 --> 02:04:42,239
need to understand it in the sense that

3444
02:04:45,510 --> 02:04:44,000
i have to live it to some degree and

3445
02:04:47,750 --> 02:04:45,520
incorporate it into my own thinking and

3446
02:04:49,030 --> 02:04:47,760
i haven't or i only have to a minor

3447
02:04:50,629 --> 02:04:49,040
degree

3448
02:04:51,910 --> 02:04:50,639
as well as i have to understand all the

3449
02:04:53,669 --> 02:04:51,920
different strains of consciousness

3450
02:04:55,430 --> 02:04:53,679
before i can come to a conclusion that's

3451
02:04:57,589 --> 02:04:55,440
what's stopping me see for conversations

3452
02:04:59,109 --> 02:04:57,599
like the ones that i engage in on this

3453
02:05:00,709 --> 02:04:59,119
channel as well as when you watch

3454
02:05:02,310 --> 02:05:00,719
debates or when i watch debates and so

3455
02:05:04,149 --> 02:05:02,320
on i don't think it's useful to think in

3456
02:05:06,790 --> 02:05:04,159
terms of an instant transformation but

3457
02:05:11,189 --> 02:05:06,800
instead to think in terms of

3458
02:05:16,550 --> 02:05:13,750
a slow process of change a slow process

3459
02:05:18,950 --> 02:05:16,560
of a seed that's been planted seminal

3460
02:05:20,790 --> 02:05:18,960
if this was group theory if you can if

3461
02:05:22,470 --> 02:05:20,800
you're a mathematician

3462
02:05:24,310 --> 02:05:22,480
you understand group theory then each

3463
02:05:26,149 --> 02:05:24,320
conversation i have is like i've been

3464
02:05:28,149 --> 02:05:26,159
added a new generator

3465
02:05:30,390 --> 02:05:28,159
and time is the parameter

3466
02:05:32,870 --> 02:05:30,400
so it's almost like there's tiny chunks

3467
02:05:35,189 --> 02:05:32,880
tiny chinks in my armor my armored

3468
02:05:37,990 --> 02:05:35,199
vehicle that i used to pilot the world

3469
02:05:39,990 --> 02:05:38,000
and i see that this is

3470
02:05:42,149 --> 02:05:40,000
this needs mending this needs

3471
02:05:43,350 --> 02:05:42,159
abandoning this needs adding

3472
02:05:44,950 --> 02:05:43,360
this isn't where i thought it was i

3473
02:05:46,390 --> 02:05:44,960
thought it was stronger here and so on

3474
02:05:48,069 --> 02:05:46,400
and i find that my self-imposed

3475
02:05:52,310 --> 02:05:48,079
interdictions are unnecessary and that

3476
02:05:53,350 --> 02:05:52,320
my trumpeted freedoms are superfluous so

3477
02:05:56,870 --> 02:05:53,360
it's a

3478
02:05:58,629 --> 02:05:56,880
undoing

3479
02:06:00,470 --> 02:05:58,639
i rearrange myself slowly and that's a

3480
02:06:02,709 --> 02:06:00,480
more effective way of describing what's

3481
02:06:04,470 --> 02:06:02,719
going on during these conversations

3482
02:06:06,470 --> 02:06:04,480
i think that's useful because people

3483
02:06:07,669 --> 02:06:06,480
want to say that this changed my life

3484
02:06:08,629 --> 02:06:07,679
and then someone asked you how did it

3485
02:06:09,830 --> 02:06:08,639
change your life and then you're at a

3486
02:06:11,030 --> 02:06:09,840
loss for words and then you feel like

3487
02:06:12,870 --> 02:06:11,040
well maybe it didn't change my life or

3488
02:06:14,229 --> 02:06:12,880
maybe i'm foolish on inarticulate or

3489
02:06:16,629 --> 02:06:14,239
maybe it's that it changed your life at

3490
02:06:18,069 --> 02:06:16,639
a small level right now that'll manifest

3491
02:06:19,510 --> 02:06:18,079
itself later

3492
02:06:21,350 --> 02:06:19,520
i think that's the better way to think

3493
02:06:23,189 --> 02:06:21,360
about it and as long as i'm oriented by

3494
02:06:25,189 --> 02:06:23,199
god or by

3495
02:06:26,709 --> 02:06:25,199
truth or by love

3496
02:06:28,950 --> 02:06:26,719
or all

3497
02:06:30,629 --> 02:06:28,960
i hope that i'm

3498
02:06:32,790 --> 02:06:30,639
i hope these conversations are changing

3499
02:06:34,069 --> 02:06:32,800
me for uh

3500
02:06:36,709 --> 02:06:34,079
for the good and hopefully changing

3501
02:06:44,310 --> 02:06:36,719
others for the good or more specifically

3502
02:06:48,310 --> 02:06:46,390
thank you again thank you so much for

3503
02:06:50,310 --> 02:06:48,320
watching this i appreciate it i gotta

3504
02:06:52,069 --> 02:06:50,320
get going as you can tell i'm now

3505
02:06:54,149 --> 02:06:52,079
drained

3506
02:06:56,149 --> 02:06:54,159
if you want to support

3507
02:06:58,510 --> 02:06:56,159
more conversations like this then please

3508
02:07:00,629 --> 02:06:58,520
consider going to

3509
02:07:03,510 --> 02:07:00,639
patreon.com there is a custom pledge

3510
02:07:05,669 --> 02:07:03,520
people ask how can i donate more than

3511
02:07:07,750 --> 02:07:05,679
or less than 10 you can do a custom

3512
02:07:10,709 --> 02:07:07,760
pledge and it actually helps each dollar

3513
02:07:19,669 --> 02:07:13,750
i

3514
02:07:21,510 --> 02:07:19,679
coherent

3515
02:07:26,470 --> 02:07:21,520
and

3516
02:07:27,669 --> 02:07:26,480
you can

3517
02:07:29,350 --> 02:07:27,679
message again and perhaps i'll do

3518
02:07:32,550 --> 02:07:29,360
another ama somewhat

3519
02:07:34,870 --> 02:07:32,560
shorter this time so that i'm not

3520
02:07:37,510 --> 02:07:34,880
struggling at the end of it

3521
02:07:38,950 --> 02:07:37,520
thank you so much

3522
02:07:40,629 --> 02:07:38,960

problem with at all actually i drink

3528
02:07:54,870 --> 02:07:53,360
