1
00:00:12,790 --> 00:00:01,350
hey

2
00:00:16,790 --> 00:00:15,030
all right

3
00:00:19,510 --> 00:00:16,800
thank you this question comes from

4
00:00:21,910 --> 00:00:19,520
jackie maroon now if i mispronounce your

5
00:00:25,349 --> 00:00:21,920
name please i apologize i'm probably

6
00:00:26,790 --> 00:00:25,359
going to repeatedly do so please tell us

7
00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:26,800
your

8
00:00:30,870 --> 00:00:28,480
myers-briggs

9
00:00:33,270 --> 00:00:30,880
okay

10
00:00:36,310 --> 00:00:33,280
there's a website online which i'll

11
00:00:39,590 --> 00:00:36,320
display right now which has me

12
00:00:46,630 --> 00:00:40,590
an

13
00:00:49,350 --> 00:00:46,640
reason this has five votes

14
00:00:51,750 --> 00:00:49,360
this is incorrect i'm an

15
00:00:54,709 --> 00:00:51,760
introverted type of person who relies

16
00:00:57,029 --> 00:00:54,719
heavily on my intuition and i'm fairly

17
00:00:59,430 --> 00:00:57,039
quick to draw conclusions and i happen

18
00:01:03,349 --> 00:00:59,440
to like to think or love to think i

19
00:01:04,950 --> 00:01:03,359
engage repeatedly in imperishable

20
00:01:07,990 --> 00:01:04,960
continual

21
00:01:09,670 --> 00:01:08,000
mental activity so that makes me

22
00:01:10,830 --> 00:01:09,680
an int jay

23
00:01:14,550 --> 00:01:10,840
that is

24
00:01:17,030 --> 00:01:14,560
intj in fact my first company was named

25
00:01:19,030 --> 00:01:17,040
int j

26
00:01:21,190 --> 00:01:19,040
the word on the street so that's the

27
00:01:23,109 --> 00:01:21,200
next user who's asking this question do

28
00:01:25,990 --> 00:01:23,119
you believe that a psychedelic drug can

29
00:01:27,749 --> 00:01:26,000
cut off your brain's natural filter and

30
00:01:29,990 --> 00:01:27,759
that it allows you to see beyond the

31
00:01:32,550 --> 00:01:30,000
veil of our reality i've never taken a

32
00:01:34,950 --> 00:01:32,560
psychedelic but heard people say that

33
00:01:37,910 --> 00:01:34,960
while taking dmt as a group they were

34
00:01:40,390 --> 00:01:37,920
seeing the same thing

35
00:01:42,149 --> 00:01:40,400
that they had a group hallucination

36
00:01:44,789 --> 00:01:42,159
okay so that's the question

37
00:01:46,789 --> 00:01:44,799
i believe there's evidence that

38
00:01:47,830 --> 00:01:46,799
both are the case

39
00:01:50,069 --> 00:01:47,840
that

40
00:01:52,550 --> 00:01:50,079
psychedelics removes what

41
00:01:55,270 --> 00:01:52,560
sits sensorily

42
00:01:57,510 --> 00:01:55,280
and that it modulates what is existing

43
00:01:59,190 --> 00:01:57,520
like an instagram filter as well

44
00:02:01,990 --> 00:01:59,200
as for people reporting the same

45
00:02:03,910 --> 00:02:02,000
experience i hear this repeatedly

46
00:02:05,350 --> 00:02:03,920
but i don't know of any studies that

47
00:02:08,070 --> 00:02:05,360
have been done on this at least not in a

48
00:02:10,229 --> 00:02:08,080
major journal and i don't know why not

49
00:02:12,710 --> 00:02:10,239
given how apparently replicable this

50
00:02:14,070 --> 00:02:12,720
result is and

51
00:02:17,750 --> 00:02:14,080
it seems like something that's easily

52
00:02:21,350 --> 00:02:19,750
as for the term group hallucination i'm

53
00:02:23,190 --> 00:02:21,360
not a fan of the term

54
00:02:25,990 --> 00:02:23,200
it's

55
00:02:27,510 --> 00:02:26,000
an unreliable construct and i can talk

56
00:02:29,030 --> 00:02:27,520
more about that

57
00:02:30,710 --> 00:02:29,040
afterward

58
00:02:32,309 --> 00:02:30,720
in other words there is no such thing as

59
00:02:33,509 --> 00:02:32,319
a mass hallucination you hear people say

60
00:02:36,630 --> 00:02:33,519
this

61
00:02:39,509 --> 00:02:36,640
al johnson says kurt big fan do you

62
00:02:41,990 --> 00:02:39,519
meditate so i've tried and i continually

63
00:02:45,270 --> 00:02:42,000
try but i don't find that it helps

64
00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:45,280
so i've discontinued it and

65
00:02:50,150 --> 00:02:48,800
i've recontinued it many times and i

66
00:02:52,229 --> 00:02:50,160
i just find that it doesn't help me i've

67
00:02:54,150 --> 00:02:52,239
tried it for years it's difficult

68
00:02:55,509 --> 00:02:54,160
generally to stress me

69
00:02:58,309 --> 00:02:55,519
i don't have many

70
00:03:01,270 --> 00:02:58,319
negative thoughts barring recent events

71
00:03:02,630 --> 00:03:01,280
mental events let's say which if you're

72
00:03:06,229 --> 00:03:02,640
a

73
00:03:08,390 --> 00:03:06,239
should

74
00:03:09,509 --> 00:03:08,400
likely or you would likely know about

75
00:03:11,030 --> 00:03:09,519
this

76
00:03:14,309 --> 00:03:11,040
you can find out more about from the

77
00:03:17,509 --> 00:03:14,319
carl firsten episode and the

78
00:03:18,790 --> 00:03:17,519
ah almas episode

79
00:03:20,790 --> 00:03:18,800
i talk

80
00:03:23,350 --> 00:03:20,800
a minor bit about it toward the end of

81
00:03:24,949 --> 00:03:23,360
the diana pasulka video as well

82
00:03:26,630 --> 00:03:24,959
so i don't find that meditation helps my

83
00:03:28,869 --> 00:03:26,640
sleeping

84
00:03:30,470 --> 00:03:28,879
nor does it help my imagination so my

85
00:03:32,390 --> 00:03:30,480
creativity

86
00:03:35,030 --> 00:03:32,400
some people say that

87
00:03:38,309 --> 00:03:35,040
meditation can function as a method of

88
00:03:40,229 --> 00:03:38,319
almost sleep so seinfeld said that

89
00:03:41,830 --> 00:03:40,239
transcendental meditation recharges his

90
00:03:44,470 --> 00:03:41,840
batteries

91
00:03:46,550 --> 00:03:44,480
that is to say if you need to nap for an

92
00:03:48,550 --> 00:03:46,560
hour what you can do is meditate for 15

93
00:03:49,509 --> 00:03:48,560
minutes or so instead and you should

94
00:03:51,750 --> 00:03:49,519
feel

95
00:03:53,509 --> 00:03:51,760
just as refreshed if not more i don't

96
00:03:54,869 --> 00:03:53,519
find that to be the case

97
00:03:57,509 --> 00:03:54,879
for myself

98
00:04:00,470 --> 00:03:57,519
godfrey oppa says what is your interest

99
00:04:03,110 --> 00:04:00,480
in mathematics

100
00:04:07,910 --> 00:04:03,120
it's fun for me it's fun

101
00:04:16,469 --> 00:04:09,509
uses

102
00:04:20,150 --> 00:04:17,830
at least it appears to be the language

103
00:04:22,710 --> 00:04:20,160
that the universe uses physically

104
00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:22,720
i also find it extremely

105
00:04:25,830 --> 00:04:24,880
difficult at times and i tend to like to

106
00:04:28,070 --> 00:04:25,840
do what's

107
00:04:30,790 --> 00:04:28,080
mentally or cognitively difficult simply

108
00:04:33,110 --> 00:04:30,800
to prove it to myself because i'm much

109
00:04:35,590 --> 00:04:33,120
like david goggins

110
00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:35,600
though he's with physical work

111
00:04:39,270 --> 00:04:37,120
he will push himself to the physical

112
00:04:41,030 --> 00:04:39,280
limit i like to do that for myself

113
00:04:43,030 --> 00:04:41,040
mentally i push myself in the mental

114
00:04:45,350 --> 00:04:43,040
domain as much as i can

115
00:04:47,430 --> 00:04:45,360
in high school and university whenever

116
00:04:48,950 --> 00:04:47,440
there were multiple choices for a course

117
00:04:50,870 --> 00:04:48,960
i would

118
00:04:52,230 --> 00:04:50,880
just ask the question which one's harder

119
00:04:53,749 --> 00:04:52,240
if there was two versions of a math

120
00:04:55,590 --> 00:04:53,759
course which one's the more abstract one

121
00:04:57,430 --> 00:04:55,600
which one's the more difficult one i

122
00:05:00,150 --> 00:04:57,440
will take that one the more difficult

123
00:05:02,950 --> 00:05:00,160
one simply to bolster my

124
00:05:04,870 --> 00:05:02,960
self-pride gonzo asks hey kurt i want to

125
00:05:06,870 --> 00:05:04,880
learn physics where do i begin and where

126
00:05:08,230 --> 00:05:06,880
do i go

127
00:05:10,230 --> 00:05:08,240
well

128
00:05:12,870 --> 00:05:10,240
it depends on which part of physics if

129
00:05:15,749 --> 00:05:12,880
it's the theoretical end of the

130
00:05:17,590 --> 00:05:15,759
physics spectrum then i would say

131
00:05:19,110 --> 00:05:17,600
you could watch the crash course on

132
00:05:21,510 --> 00:05:19,120
physics there will be a thumbnail right

133
00:05:23,909 --> 00:05:21,520
now about that which gives an overview

134
00:05:25,909 --> 00:05:23,919
it also gives general learning tips for

135
00:05:29,909 --> 00:05:25,919
math and physics if it's more of the

136
00:05:34,310 --> 00:05:29,919
practical that you're looking for then

137
00:05:36,550 --> 00:05:34,320
brilliant is a great website to use and

138
00:05:40,230 --> 00:05:36,560
well websites akin to that and also the

139
00:05:42,230 --> 00:05:40,240
next question so caroline cherry says

140
00:05:43,990 --> 00:05:42,240
would taking a course in linear algebra

141
00:05:47,110 --> 00:05:44,000
familiarize someone about quantum

142
00:05:49,510 --> 00:05:47,120
mechanics more than any other math

143
00:05:51,510 --> 00:05:49,520
i would say yes and i would say that my

144
00:05:54,469 --> 00:05:51,520
advice would be to master it

145
00:05:55,350 --> 00:05:54,479
inside and out and backward and you'll

146
00:05:57,270 --> 00:05:55,360
be

147
00:05:59,830 --> 00:05:57,280
unstoppable

148
00:06:00,629 --> 00:05:59,840
another course that's not talked about

149
00:06:02,950 --> 00:06:00,639
much

150
00:06:04,950 --> 00:06:02,960
is representation theory or another

151
00:06:06,790 --> 00:06:04,960
field of mathematics representation

152
00:06:08,710 --> 00:06:06,800
theory so representation theory and

153
00:06:11,029 --> 00:06:08,720
linear algebra

154
00:06:12,230 --> 00:06:11,039
i would say pick some course some

155
00:06:13,749 --> 00:06:12,240
textbook

156
00:06:16,710 --> 00:06:13,759
some

157
00:06:20,469 --> 00:06:16,720
powerpoint slide and understand

158
00:06:22,309 --> 00:06:20,479
each equation every implication arrow

159
00:06:23,350 --> 00:06:22,319
every equality sign

160
00:06:25,749 --> 00:06:23,360
every

161
00:06:27,990 --> 00:06:25,759
theorem assiduously

162
00:06:29,909 --> 00:06:28,000
every definition every detail and you'll

163
00:06:32,830 --> 00:06:29,919
be extremely

164
00:06:35,029 --> 00:06:32,840
powerful you'll have an anchor to

165
00:06:36,629 --> 00:06:35,039
rest any future knowledge that's

166
00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:36,639
mathematical or physical and even some

167
00:06:40,790 --> 00:06:37,440
in the

168
00:06:43,029 --> 00:06:40,800
emotional spiritual domain personally i

169
00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:43,039
like to be

170
00:06:47,590 --> 00:06:46,560
as detailed as i possibly can

171
00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:47,600
though

172
00:06:52,469 --> 00:06:50,319
i understand that sometimes and often is

173
00:06:55,029 --> 00:06:52,479
the case while detail can be more

174
00:06:56,710 --> 00:06:55,039
befuddling than it is illuminating

175
00:06:58,309 --> 00:06:56,720
and that's one of the reasons that

176
00:07:02,790 --> 00:06:58,319
people well that's one of the reasons

177
00:07:05,909 --> 00:07:04,230
domain like

178
00:07:07,270 --> 00:07:05,919
for example neil degrasse tyson and so

179
00:07:10,550 --> 00:07:07,280
on i keep picking on him but i don't

180
00:07:11,350 --> 00:07:10,560
mean to i apologize neil but people like

181
00:07:12,150 --> 00:07:11,360
him

182
00:07:14,629 --> 00:07:12,160
have

183
00:07:18,230 --> 00:07:14,639
just inundated you repeatedly with the

184
00:07:20,870 --> 00:07:18,240
same wave particle duality and gravity

185
00:07:22,629 --> 00:07:20,880
is like a fabric of space-time bending

186
00:07:24,629 --> 00:07:22,639
and so on and it doesn't give you much

187
00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:24,639
of much insight

188
00:07:28,950 --> 00:07:26,960
and it's as if you're still at the

189
00:07:33,909 --> 00:07:28,960
elementary school level

190
00:07:36,150 --> 00:07:33,919
so what toe is aiming to do is

191
00:07:37,270 --> 00:07:36,160
to bridge the gap between

192
00:07:39,270 --> 00:07:37,280
where the

193
00:07:41,510 --> 00:07:39,280
poppy where i feel the popular science

194
00:07:42,790 --> 00:07:41,520
people have been stuck for the past 40

195
00:07:44,070 --> 00:07:42,800
years

196
00:07:46,309 --> 00:07:44,080
so that's here and then where the

197
00:07:48,550 --> 00:07:46,319
universities are there's a large

198
00:07:50,309 --> 00:07:48,560
unaddressed segment of highly highly

199
00:07:52,710 --> 00:07:50,319
motivated and

200
00:07:54,790 --> 00:07:52,720
extremely intelligent and curious people

201
00:07:56,230 --> 00:07:54,800
and that's the toe audience though it's

202
00:07:58,390 --> 00:07:56,240
nowhere near as

203
00:08:00,150 --> 00:07:58,400
philanthropic as i'm making it seem i'm

204
00:08:03,110 --> 00:08:00,160
an extremely

205
00:08:05,670 --> 00:08:03,120
self-serving person so much of toe if

206
00:08:08,390 --> 00:08:05,680
not all of toe is essentially to rectify

207
00:08:10,390 --> 00:08:08,400
my own bewilderment constantly i see

208
00:08:11,670 --> 00:08:10,400
what other people say

209
00:08:14,629 --> 00:08:11,680
sorry i see

210
00:08:16,710 --> 00:08:14,639
other people saying so-and-so is obvious

211
00:08:19,029 --> 00:08:16,720
to me it's not obvious almost none of it

212
00:08:21,350 --> 00:08:19,039
is i'm creating what i wish existed for

213
00:08:23,670 --> 00:08:21,360
my former self while illuminating my

214
00:08:25,990 --> 00:08:23,680
future self so my current self my future

215
00:08:26,869 --> 00:08:26,000
self and in a sense it's like a bridge

216
00:08:29,029 --> 00:08:26,879
from the

217
00:08:32,709 --> 00:08:29,039
past to the future simultaneously it's

218
00:08:36,389 --> 00:08:34,949
the problem with simplified explanations

219
00:08:38,230 --> 00:08:36,399
is that they may be correct but then

220
00:08:39,990 --> 00:08:38,240
they disorient you

221
00:08:42,870 --> 00:08:40,000
and you think that the world can't

222
00:08:45,190 --> 00:08:42,880
operate in that manner so for example

223
00:08:47,190 --> 00:08:45,200
richard borchards said that he can't

224
00:08:49,590 --> 00:08:47,200
understand biology because when reading

225
00:08:51,190 --> 00:08:49,600
the biology textbooks he realizes that a

226
00:08:53,750 --> 00:08:51,200
cell can't function

227
00:08:55,509 --> 00:08:53,760
in the manner that the textbooks suggest

228
00:08:56,949 --> 00:08:55,519
so another one is the curvature of

229
00:08:58,470 --> 00:08:56,959
space-time is like a balloon in the

230
00:09:00,630 --> 00:08:58,480
middle of a bed and so on you get a

231
00:09:02,790 --> 00:09:00,640
siphon it's like a black hole and it

232
00:09:05,350 --> 00:09:02,800
just leaves much to be desired for me it

233
00:09:07,750 --> 00:09:05,360
leaves more questions than

234
00:09:10,389 --> 00:09:07,760
in answers that is to say that one can

235
00:09:12,870 --> 00:09:10,399
make analogies with those analogies and

236
00:09:14,630 --> 00:09:12,880
then they break down and it it tends to

237
00:09:15,750 --> 00:09:14,640
be only after years and years of

238
00:09:16,630 --> 00:09:15,760
studying

239
00:09:18,630 --> 00:09:16,640
does

240
00:09:20,949 --> 00:09:18,640
one realize that those reduced

241
00:09:23,910 --> 00:09:20,959
explanations those simplified

242
00:09:25,829 --> 00:09:23,920
low resolution explanations do indeed

243
00:09:27,590 --> 00:09:25,839
accurately represent

244
00:09:28,710 --> 00:09:27,600
what's trying to be explained however

245
00:09:30,389 --> 00:09:28,720
you have to see it from different

246
00:09:32,470 --> 00:09:30,399
vantage points

247
00:09:35,269 --> 00:09:32,480
in order for you to see why squinting

248
00:09:36,389 --> 00:09:35,279
with your eyes at this intricate object

249
00:09:39,190 --> 00:09:36,399
produces that

250
00:09:42,870 --> 00:09:39,200
simplified image explaining

251
00:09:45,030 --> 00:09:42,880
some concept in a manner that a child

252
00:09:46,630 --> 00:09:45,040
would understand sure a child would

253
00:09:48,710 --> 00:09:46,640
think that they understand it but the

254
00:09:50,710 --> 00:09:48,720
inquisitive child

255
00:09:52,949 --> 00:09:50,720
would realize that well that can't be

256
00:09:55,829 --> 00:09:52,959
how the world works and it's only after

257
00:09:57,670 --> 00:09:55,839
one delves deeper into the

258
00:10:00,630 --> 00:09:57,680
details or the particularities of a

259
00:10:02,630 --> 00:10:00,640
given topic that

260
00:10:04,470 --> 00:10:02,640
you come to realize that the boiled down

261
00:10:08,870 --> 00:10:04,480
version is actually extremely lucid and

262
00:10:11,030 --> 00:10:08,880
clever so caroline all of that is to say

263
00:10:12,949 --> 00:10:11,040
understand pick some subject some

264
00:10:15,110 --> 00:10:12,959
lecture some powerpoint slide if you

265
00:10:17,350 --> 00:10:15,120
want to make it as

266
00:10:19,350 --> 00:10:17,360
tiny as that and understand it

267
00:10:21,750 --> 00:10:19,360
understand every single equation every

268
00:10:24,069 --> 00:10:21,760
single equal sign every single

269
00:10:25,030 --> 00:10:24,079
implication arrow because broadly

270
00:10:27,030 --> 00:10:25,040
speaking

271
00:10:29,269 --> 00:10:27,040
understanding mathematics

272
00:10:30,389 --> 00:10:29,279
or physics happens in three stages so

273
00:10:32,150 --> 00:10:30,399
one is the

274
00:10:33,509 --> 00:10:32,160
child like simplified explanation that

275
00:10:35,269 --> 00:10:33,519
we're all told and

276
00:10:36,150 --> 00:10:35,279
we're all pretty much at that level

277
00:10:37,990 --> 00:10:36,160
because

278
00:10:40,870 --> 00:10:38,000
we've been told about string theory as

279
00:10:42,710 --> 00:10:40,880
well you take an extended region of a

280
00:10:44,550 --> 00:10:42,720
of an electron you make it into a loop

281
00:10:45,829 --> 00:10:44,560
or you make it into an open string and

282
00:10:47,030 --> 00:10:45,839
then you wonder well how does it operate

283
00:10:49,190 --> 00:10:47,040
okay so you have some high level

284
00:10:50,949 --> 00:10:49,200
understanding of it so that's stage one

285
00:10:52,310 --> 00:10:50,959
then stage two is the rigorous

286
00:10:54,710 --> 00:10:52,320
definition

287
00:10:57,350 --> 00:10:54,720
then stage three is

288
00:10:59,829 --> 00:10:57,360
the level of understanding where you

289
00:11:01,910 --> 00:10:59,839
then see why this rigorous definition

290
00:11:04,310 --> 00:11:01,920
makes sense with the initial one and

291
00:11:06,550 --> 00:11:04,320
vice versa where it becomes intuitive

292
00:11:08,470 --> 00:11:06,560
now the toe podcast you can think of it

293
00:11:09,829 --> 00:11:08,480
as

294
00:11:12,310 --> 00:11:09,839
coming to the understanding that the

295
00:11:14,230 --> 00:11:12,320
majority of people are already at stage

296
00:11:16,310 --> 00:11:14,240
one and they're being talked to

297
00:11:18,150 --> 00:11:16,320
consistently like they're not at stage

298
00:11:20,949 --> 00:11:18,160
one like they're at stage zero

299
00:11:21,750 --> 00:11:20,959
and we need to progress to stage two and

300
00:11:24,230 --> 00:11:21,760
then

301
00:11:26,710 --> 00:11:24,240
hopefully stage three so the toe podcast

302
00:11:28,310 --> 00:11:26,720
is about stage two the universities are

303
00:11:29,430 --> 00:11:28,320
about stage three but that's extremely

304
00:11:31,670 --> 00:11:29,440
difficult

305
00:11:33,670 --> 00:11:31,680
victor yaki can you share with your

306
00:11:36,389 --> 00:11:33,680
audience what you're reading

307
00:11:38,389 --> 00:11:36,399
to prepare for specific upcoming videos

308
00:11:41,269 --> 00:11:38,399
i think it would help a previously

309
00:11:44,389 --> 00:11:41,279
unstudied but curious mind like my own

310
00:11:45,910 --> 00:11:44,399
learn even more

311
00:11:48,949 --> 00:11:45,920
so let's say i have an interview coming

312
00:11:51,030 --> 00:11:48,959
up i look up the person's corpus usually

313
00:11:53,030 --> 00:11:51,040
it's a person rather than a

314
00:11:54,949 --> 00:11:53,040
group of people and then i see what

315
00:11:56,710 --> 00:11:54,959
interviews they've done what academic

316
00:11:59,350 --> 00:11:56,720
articles they've published i may sort

317
00:12:00,550 --> 00:11:59,360
that by most cited or most interesting

318
00:12:03,030 --> 00:12:00,560
to myself

319
00:12:04,870 --> 00:12:03,040
i make a note of any relevant other

320
00:12:07,350 --> 00:12:04,880
infos like books they may have written

321
00:12:08,150 --> 00:12:07,360
or articles written about them i try to

322
00:12:12,150 --> 00:12:08,160
read

323
00:12:13,990 --> 00:12:12,160
enough of other people's commentary as

324
00:12:15,670 --> 00:12:14,000
well as their own commentary on their

325
00:12:17,910 --> 00:12:15,680
work to get an understanding of their

326
00:12:20,629 --> 00:12:17,920
point of view i may do a

327
00:12:22,230 --> 00:12:20,639
podcast on what it takes to prepare for

328
00:12:24,150 --> 00:12:22,240
a tow podcast

329
00:12:25,430 --> 00:12:24,160
i may do not a podcast maybe a video

330
00:12:29,829 --> 00:12:25,440
let's say

331
00:12:35,590 --> 00:12:33,030
step up startup enjoy your time away

332
00:12:38,790 --> 00:12:35,600
what i find super fascinating about you

333
00:12:41,430 --> 00:12:38,800
is your pause moments in

334
00:12:43,030 --> 00:12:41,440
pause moments

335
00:12:45,110 --> 00:12:43,040
how in the heat of the conversation

336
00:12:47,750 --> 00:12:45,120
you're able to do it and analyze and

337
00:12:49,670 --> 00:12:47,760
come back with a very authentic point

338
00:12:52,310 --> 00:12:49,680
instead of getting lost or taken away

339
00:12:54,550 --> 00:12:52,320
you must be mentally drained afterward

340
00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:54,560
because it takes plenty of energy on

341
00:12:59,190 --> 00:12:56,160
that subject do you take any supplements

342
00:13:01,269 --> 00:12:59,200
for focus or have a diet i know you

343
00:13:04,550 --> 00:13:01,279
mentioned that you don't eat

344
00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:04,560
before your conversations

345
00:13:08,790 --> 00:13:07,839
so for supplements for focus no

346
00:13:11,030 --> 00:13:08,800
i've

347
00:13:13,190 --> 00:13:11,040
tried virtually every nootropic that

348
00:13:15,030 --> 00:13:13,200
exists and i don't find any of them

349
00:13:17,269 --> 00:13:15,040
works for me except for caffeine and

350
00:13:19,269 --> 00:13:17,279
venobut however

351
00:13:22,230 --> 00:13:19,279
the latter i take perhaps maybe once

352
00:13:24,230 --> 00:13:22,240
every two months or even less because i

353
00:13:25,910 --> 00:13:24,240
am terribly

354
00:13:28,710 --> 00:13:25,920
afraid of getting addicted to any of

355
00:13:31,750 --> 00:13:28,720
these supplements or substances as for

356
00:13:34,710 --> 00:13:31,760
fasting i almost never

357
00:13:37,430 --> 00:13:34,720
eat prior to a podcast for whatever

358
00:13:39,670 --> 00:13:37,440
reason i feel like it's cheating

359
00:13:42,870 --> 00:13:39,680
it's like me being

360
00:13:45,430 --> 00:13:42,880
a surient in some manner and so

361
00:13:47,030 --> 00:13:45,440
i put it off until i have my reward so

362
00:13:48,790 --> 00:13:47,040
it's almost like i feel like the same

363
00:13:51,030 --> 00:13:48,800
feeling that i get if i was to eat my

364
00:13:53,190 --> 00:13:51,040
dessert prior to the salad is the

365
00:13:57,030 --> 00:13:53,200
feeling that i get

366
00:14:00,150 --> 00:13:58,790
of voraciousness indulging in my own

367
00:14:01,269 --> 00:14:00,160
voraciousness

368
00:14:05,269 --> 00:14:01,279
as

369
00:14:10,150 --> 00:14:05,279
it's not

370
00:14:14,069 --> 00:14:10,160
not right i need to do the podcast and

371
00:14:18,949 --> 00:14:14,079
then reward myself with food and i love

372
00:14:22,310 --> 00:14:18,959
i love food i i surf it i gorge i gorge

373
00:14:25,990 --> 00:14:22,320
myself past the point of over saturated

374
00:14:27,590 --> 00:14:26,000
sorry past the point of oversaturation

375
00:14:28,790 --> 00:14:27,600
i love to eat this one of my i love to

376
00:14:30,310 --> 00:14:28,800
eat with my wife

377
00:14:32,550 --> 00:14:30,320
like i don't like to eat alone i love to

378
00:14:34,870 --> 00:14:32,560
eat with my wife additionally when it

379
00:14:36,949 --> 00:14:34,880
comes to the fasting i don't frequently

380
00:14:39,189 --> 00:14:36,959
fast i intermittently fast virtually

381
00:14:40,629 --> 00:14:39,199
every day but i don't fast for 48 hours

382
00:14:43,110 --> 00:14:40,639
or 72 hours

383
00:14:45,509 --> 00:14:43,120
except perhaps once a month or or once

384
00:14:48,790 --> 00:14:45,519
every two weeks or so

385
00:14:52,310 --> 00:14:48,800
and the reasons for fasting aren't to do

386
00:14:54,310 --> 00:14:52,320
with cognition but instead simply timing

387
00:14:55,430 --> 00:14:54,320
i don't have the time

388
00:14:57,509 --> 00:14:55,440
to eat

389
00:14:59,430 --> 00:14:57,519
i find that

390
00:15:00,629 --> 00:14:59,440
i like to reward myself

391
00:15:02,550 --> 00:15:00,639
by eating

392
00:15:04,629 --> 00:15:02,560
afterwards so i eat just once a day or

393
00:15:06,790 --> 00:15:04,639
twice a day and that's after i've done

394
00:15:10,829 --> 00:15:06,800
the majority of my work if not all of my

395
00:15:14,550 --> 00:15:10,839
work to sum up i'm a glutton

396
00:15:16,230 --> 00:15:14,560
i i relish food

397
00:15:19,509 --> 00:15:16,240
and

398
00:15:20,790 --> 00:15:19,519
i i treat it sacredly

399
00:15:22,710 --> 00:15:20,800
fanny ram

400
00:15:24,230 --> 00:15:22,720
how much do you usually prep for a talk

401
00:15:27,509 --> 00:15:24,240
and how much of a free ride do you get

402
00:15:29,590 --> 00:15:27,519
from your educational background

403
00:15:30,389 --> 00:15:29,600
brackets undergrad

404
00:15:32,069 --> 00:15:30,399
i

405
00:15:34,470 --> 00:15:32,079
tend to have to relearn almost all of

406
00:15:36,389 --> 00:15:34,480
what i've learned as an undergrad and i

407
00:15:38,150 --> 00:15:36,399
realized that i had mislead it back then

408
00:15:39,590 --> 00:15:38,160
if i've learned it at all

409
00:15:43,990 --> 00:15:39,600
which is why in the crash course on

410
00:15:45,990 --> 00:15:44,000
physics i go through details of how

411
00:15:48,069 --> 00:15:46,000
how i think a particular physical

412
00:15:49,749 --> 00:15:48,079
concept should be thought of or physics

413
00:15:51,910 --> 00:15:49,759
should be taught or mathematics should

414
00:15:55,269 --> 00:15:51,920
be taught and it's

415
00:15:57,910 --> 00:15:55,279
to avoid this the confusion that i had

416
00:16:00,389 --> 00:15:57,920
i was never the type to study in groups

417
00:16:04,629 --> 00:16:00,399
nor ask the professor for help and that

418
00:16:05,910 --> 00:16:04,639
has hindered me greatly because much of

419
00:16:08,710 --> 00:16:05,920
how

420
00:16:13,590 --> 00:16:08,720
people study is in groups if you go to a

421
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:15,749
almost all of their misapprehensions are

422
00:16:21,350 --> 00:16:17,920
settled there whereas for me i don't

423
00:16:23,189 --> 00:16:21,360
have that and i wasn't

424
00:16:25,670 --> 00:16:23,199
i wasn't open enough to talk to other

425
00:16:26,949 --> 00:16:25,680
people when i was in university and i

426
00:16:29,269 --> 00:16:26,959
just feel like i have

427
00:16:33,550 --> 00:16:29,279
virtually no one to talk to so almost

428
00:16:37,430 --> 00:16:35,350
non-comprehensions

429
00:16:39,189 --> 00:16:37,440
happen solitarily

430
00:16:41,110 --> 00:16:39,199
so for example one would be how does a

431
00:16:43,509 --> 00:16:41,120
certain lead group sit inside another

432
00:16:46,310 --> 00:16:43,519
league group i have to figure that out

433
00:16:48,069 --> 00:16:46,320
on my own by reading and by watching

434
00:16:49,269 --> 00:16:48,079
videos and

435
00:16:52,550 --> 00:16:49,279
it's

436
00:16:54,470 --> 00:16:52,560
extremely painful and protracted as for

437
00:16:56,150 --> 00:16:54,480
how long does it usually take to prepare

438
00:16:59,670 --> 00:16:56,160
i would say about a week

439
00:17:01,110 --> 00:16:59,680
per interviewee so that's six

440
00:17:02,230 --> 00:17:01,120
full days of

441
00:17:04,630 --> 00:17:02,240
work

442
00:17:06,069 --> 00:17:04,640
okay now fanny ram has

443
00:17:08,549 --> 00:17:06,079
a second part to this if you are a

444
00:17:10,630 --> 00:17:08,559
non-math major say engineering how long

445
00:17:12,710 --> 00:17:10,640
would it take for you to get up to speed

446
00:17:14,870 --> 00:17:12,720
with gage theories

447
00:17:16,630 --> 00:17:14,880
that depends heavily on who is teaching

448
00:17:18,470 --> 00:17:16,640
it so if you're lucky enough to have a

449
00:17:20,549 --> 00:17:18,480
great teacher then well it can be

450
00:17:21,990 --> 00:17:20,559
extremely quickly the issue is that as

451
00:17:24,309 --> 00:17:22,000
soon as you've

452
00:17:26,390 --> 00:17:24,319
learned some subject it becomes

453
00:17:29,909 --> 00:17:26,400
extremely

454
00:17:32,150 --> 00:17:29,919
easy to underestimate how arduous it was

455
00:17:33,909 --> 00:17:32,160
to learn that subject to begin with how

456
00:17:35,029 --> 00:17:33,919
difficult the concept is

457
00:17:38,630 --> 00:17:35,039
and

458
00:17:43,669 --> 00:17:41,750
to a student who has no clue what this

459
00:17:45,830 --> 00:17:43,679
i'm trying to explain i'm trying to do

460
00:17:47,350 --> 00:17:45,840
this vaguely and i i think it would be

461
00:17:48,470 --> 00:17:47,360
better if i gave a concrete example but

462
00:17:49,270 --> 00:17:48,480
hopefully you can understand what i'm

463
00:17:51,590 --> 00:17:49,280
saying

464
00:17:54,870 --> 00:17:51,600
when you finally understand something

465
00:17:56,870 --> 00:17:54,880
you take for granted how difficult it is

466
00:17:58,789 --> 00:17:56,880
to come to that understanding especially

467
00:18:00,310 --> 00:17:58,799
after there's been some time from once

468
00:18:01,909 --> 00:18:00,320
you finally understand it to when you're

469
00:18:03,270 --> 00:18:01,919
teaching it so

470
00:18:05,510 --> 00:18:03,280
many teachers

471
00:18:08,710 --> 00:18:05,520
don't see where the confusions lie for

472
00:18:10,150 --> 00:18:08,720
students because they've forgotten

473
00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:10,160
what it's like to

474
00:18:14,549 --> 00:18:12,640
not understand the concept the

475
00:18:16,470 --> 00:18:14,559
people who are most skilled at

476
00:18:18,549 --> 00:18:16,480
researching aren't necessarily the best

477
00:18:20,230 --> 00:18:18,559
lecturers in fact at the university of

478
00:18:22,950 --> 00:18:20,240
toronto they don't hire based on

479
00:18:24,710 --> 00:18:22,960
lecturing abilities almost at all

480
00:18:26,870 --> 00:18:24,720
they hire based on your ability to

481
00:18:29,510 --> 00:18:26,880
conduct research and advance the field

482
00:18:31,590 --> 00:18:29,520
and those aren't the same so you can

483
00:18:33,909 --> 00:18:31,600
look up the

484
00:18:36,230 --> 00:18:33,919
well you can look up a lecture on yang

485
00:18:38,470 --> 00:18:36,240
mills theory by david gross i think it

486
00:18:41,190 --> 00:18:38,480
was about the yang mills

487
00:18:44,789 --> 00:18:41,200
millennium prize puzzle and you can see

488
00:18:46,390 --> 00:18:44,799
how scattered it is you can also see how

489
00:18:48,470 --> 00:18:46,400
he doesn't write

490
00:18:50,710 --> 00:18:48,480
in any clear manner and that person

491
00:18:53,590 --> 00:18:50,720
david gross is a nobel prize winning

492
00:18:55,430 --> 00:18:53,600
physicist he's at the top of his domain

493
00:18:57,029 --> 00:18:55,440
it's rare that you get individuals like

494
00:19:00,549 --> 00:18:57,039
ed whitton and terry tao who are

495
00:19:03,590 --> 00:19:00,559
masterful at teaching and they're at the

496
00:19:04,950 --> 00:19:03,600
peak of their subject so

497
00:19:06,310 --> 00:19:04,960
to answer the question if you're

498
00:19:08,470 --> 00:19:06,320
studying by yourself then maybe it would

499
00:19:11,029 --> 00:19:08,480
take one year if you're studying under

500
00:19:13,350 --> 00:19:11,039
someone who knows then maybe it would

501
00:19:14,789 --> 00:19:13,360
just take a month

502
00:19:17,270 --> 00:19:14,799
stephen wolf from now this is a third

503
00:19:19,590 --> 00:19:17,280
part to the same

504
00:19:21,350 --> 00:19:19,600
user fanny ram stephen wolfram

505
00:19:23,909 --> 00:19:21,360
speculates particles are tiny black

506
00:19:25,830 --> 00:19:23,919
holes does pious theory look consistent

507
00:19:27,590 --> 00:19:25,840
with that i don't think so i need to

508
00:19:29,430 --> 00:19:27,600
understand what wolfram means when he

509
00:19:32,470 --> 00:19:29,440
says that particles are like tiny black

510
00:19:34,710 --> 00:19:32,480
holes you'll hear from many places that

511
00:19:37,190 --> 00:19:34,720
some object is related to some profound

512
00:19:38,710 --> 00:19:37,200
one some benign some let's say some

513
00:19:41,990 --> 00:19:38,720
mundane object is related to some

514
00:19:44,150 --> 00:19:42,000
profound one and vice versa

515
00:19:46,390 --> 00:19:44,160
in virtually every

516
00:19:47,990 --> 00:19:46,400
toe that's advanced

517
00:19:49,909 --> 00:19:48,000
especially the more imaginative ones

518
00:19:51,590 --> 00:19:49,919
they tend to lack the rigor

519
00:19:54,789 --> 00:19:51,600
though this isn't the case where wolfram

520
00:19:57,110 --> 00:19:54,799
he's indeed rigorous as rigorous as

521
00:19:59,190 --> 00:19:57,120
as anyone else

522
00:20:00,630 --> 00:19:59,200
but i believe he's speculating using

523
00:20:03,750 --> 00:20:00,640
analogies

524
00:20:06,070 --> 00:20:03,760
and those and he's perhaps purposefully

525
00:20:07,270 --> 00:20:06,080
being provocative perhaps not perhaps he

526
00:20:09,830 --> 00:20:07,280
means those words in the way that

527
00:20:11,750 --> 00:20:09,840
they're fairly literally interpreted

528
00:20:13,430 --> 00:20:11,760
dark forest asks have you ever

529
00:20:16,150 --> 00:20:13,440
considered writing a book and if so what

530
00:20:17,750 --> 00:20:16,160
would be the subject matter i am writing

531
00:20:19,430 --> 00:20:17,760
whether or not it's for publication or

532
00:20:22,549 --> 00:20:19,440
my own edification that's to be

533
00:20:25,510 --> 00:20:22,559
determined right now it's the latter

534
00:20:27,510 --> 00:20:25,520
i see that people who have an extreme

535
00:20:29,909 --> 00:20:27,520
amount of knowledge in a certain domain

536
00:20:32,070 --> 00:20:29,919
tend to write a book about it but then

537
00:20:35,110 --> 00:20:32,080
they get interviewed and then they get

538
00:20:36,390 --> 00:20:35,120
criticized from people as being grifters

539
00:20:37,510 --> 00:20:36,400
because they have something to promote

540
00:20:40,070 --> 00:20:37,520
now

541
00:20:41,750 --> 00:20:40,080
and it doesn't help

542
00:20:44,789 --> 00:20:41,760
i don't think that's

543
00:20:47,430 --> 00:20:44,799
i see people criticize many

544
00:20:49,110 --> 00:20:47,440
i won't name names but

545
00:20:51,190 --> 00:20:49,120
people criticize i think that's

546
00:20:52,630 --> 00:20:51,200
something that needs to stop as soon as

547
00:20:55,270 --> 00:20:52,640
there's a single

548
00:20:57,669 --> 00:20:55,280
dollar motive then their entire motive

549
00:21:00,630 --> 00:20:57,679
is questioned and ideally you want

550
00:21:02,549 --> 00:21:00,640
people to be doing what they like to do

551
00:21:04,470 --> 00:21:02,559
or what they love to do for a living

552
00:21:06,390 --> 00:21:04,480
ideally you would want

553
00:21:09,190 --> 00:21:06,400
society constructed in such a manner

554
00:21:11,750 --> 00:21:09,200
that people are doing what they love for

555
00:21:13,430 --> 00:21:11,760
a living whether money is there or not

556
00:21:17,270 --> 00:21:13,440
you ideally would like that it would be

557
00:21:19,590 --> 00:21:17,280
great if everyone could not have to do

558
00:21:21,830 --> 00:21:19,600
what they dislike and contribute to

559
00:21:22,870 --> 00:21:21,840
society and themselves

560
00:21:24,470 --> 00:21:22,880
when

561
00:21:26,470 --> 00:21:24,480
people criticize

562
00:21:29,029 --> 00:21:26,480
individuals for making money off of a

563
00:21:32,549 --> 00:21:29,039
book or off of their knowledge well

564
00:21:35,350 --> 00:21:32,559
oftentimes they're

565
00:21:36,870 --> 00:21:35,360
doing what they love to do and so by

566
00:21:38,870 --> 00:21:36,880
criticizing and making money off of it

567
00:21:40,950 --> 00:21:38,880
so by criticizing people for having a

568
00:21:43,590 --> 00:21:40,960
financial motive it

569
00:21:46,149 --> 00:21:43,600
gives the implication that

570
00:21:47,590 --> 00:21:46,159
people shouldn't do what they love to do

571
00:21:49,350 --> 00:21:47,600
and it gives that implication to others

572
00:21:51,990 --> 00:21:49,360
but mainly to yourself it's one of those

573
00:21:54,149 --> 00:21:52,000
phrases grifter and the word cult and

574
00:21:56,390 --> 00:21:54,159
woo and there's certain phrases to me

575
00:21:59,430 --> 00:21:56,400
that if one was to limit

576
00:22:01,590 --> 00:21:59,440
or remove that from one's vocabulary you

577
00:22:03,750 --> 00:22:01,600
would see how constructive and building

578
00:22:06,390 --> 00:22:03,760
the world could be and yourself can be

579
00:22:08,390 --> 00:22:06,400
those words are essentially

580
00:22:11,110 --> 00:22:08,400
judgmental and dismissive

581
00:22:14,630 --> 00:22:12,710
i i understand what it's like to be

582
00:22:17,190 --> 00:22:14,640
judgmental and dismissive because that's

583
00:22:20,870 --> 00:22:17,200
my nature i have that in spades i have

584
00:22:21,750 --> 00:22:20,880
that to an abject degree i'm judgmental

585
00:22:23,190 --> 00:22:21,760
and

586
00:22:25,430 --> 00:22:23,200
disparaging

587
00:22:27,190 --> 00:22:25,440
to others in my

588
00:22:28,870 --> 00:22:27,200
internally

589
00:22:31,110 --> 00:22:28,880
and i found that

590
00:22:33,350 --> 00:22:31,120
the more i can disband just those words

591
00:22:35,110 --> 00:22:33,360
the more that i

592
00:22:37,110 --> 00:22:35,120
allow myself to put out an effort to

593
00:22:39,750 --> 00:22:37,120
learn more about the subject from a

594
00:22:42,710 --> 00:22:39,760
neutral to positive inquisitive stance a

595
00:22:44,630 --> 00:22:42,720
loving stance if i'm at my best so those

596
00:22:47,830 --> 00:22:44,640
words of that person is a grifter or

597
00:22:50,230 --> 00:22:47,840
that person's a so-and-so i

598
00:22:51,669 --> 00:22:50,240
i see this in myself as an indication

599
00:22:53,270 --> 00:22:51,679
that i've

600
00:22:54,630 --> 00:22:53,280
i have my own

601
00:22:57,510 --> 00:22:54,640
internal

602
00:22:58,470 --> 00:22:57,520
perimeters rather than it reflecting

603
00:23:00,470 --> 00:22:58,480
something

604
00:23:03,590 --> 00:23:00,480
of the objective world

605
00:23:05,750 --> 00:23:03,600
and it's easy for myself and

606
00:23:08,230 --> 00:23:05,760
while it's easy to delude oneself

607
00:23:10,549 --> 00:23:08,240
into thinking that no this is just a

608
00:23:13,669 --> 00:23:10,559
dispassionate assessment of

609
00:23:15,430 --> 00:23:13,679
objective facts when it's actually a

610
00:23:18,549 --> 00:23:15,440
justification for the limitation of

611
00:23:20,630 --> 00:23:18,559
one's own knowledge or the

612
00:23:21,990 --> 00:23:20,640
or justification for not

613
00:23:24,630 --> 00:23:22,000
trying to understand someone else's

614
00:23:27,029 --> 00:23:24,640
point of view and steelman them

615
00:23:29,270 --> 00:23:27,039
okay troy james monger says do you

616
00:23:30,950 --> 00:23:29,280
intend to continue to

617
00:23:33,350 --> 00:23:30,960
synthesize

618
00:23:35,270 --> 00:23:33,360
a toe into a grand unified toe

619
00:23:36,710 --> 00:23:35,280
documentary you've gotten a lot of

620
00:23:38,549 --> 00:23:36,720
excellent material would you consider a

621
00:23:40,870 --> 00:23:38,559
book or something that recaps the

622
00:23:42,710 --> 00:23:40,880
beautiful minds that you've surveyed

623
00:23:45,909 --> 00:23:42,720
and that abstracted experience of

624
00:23:47,990 --> 00:23:45,919
cataloging and foiling

625
00:23:49,270 --> 00:23:48,000
as for a grand unified toe that's an

626
00:23:51,110 --> 00:23:49,280
interesting way of

627
00:23:54,549 --> 00:23:51,120
putting a troy

628
00:23:56,230 --> 00:23:54,559
i have inklings here and there

629
00:23:57,590 --> 00:23:56,240
at some point in a few years i'll have

630
00:23:59,029 --> 00:23:57,600
something meaningful to say on the

631
00:24:01,990 --> 00:23:59,039
matter

632
00:24:03,990 --> 00:24:02,000
david shuey or shoi says

633
00:24:05,909 --> 00:24:04,000
how would you solve the hard problem of

634
00:24:07,990 --> 00:24:05,919
consciousness there's nothing about

635
00:24:09,990 --> 00:24:08,000
physical parameters in terms of which we

636
00:24:13,110 --> 00:24:10,000
can deduce what it feels like you can't

637
00:24:15,269 --> 00:24:13,120
go from pure quantities to qualities

638
00:24:16,950 --> 00:24:15,279
well i would say that i'm not trying to

639
00:24:19,350 --> 00:24:16,960
solve the hard

640
00:24:22,070 --> 00:24:19,360
problem i'm trying to understand the

641
00:24:24,470 --> 00:24:22,080
heart problem and other problems

642
00:24:25,430 --> 00:24:24,480
i think in about three years or so i may

643
00:24:28,950 --> 00:24:25,440
have some

644
00:24:31,110 --> 00:24:28,960
i may have a or multiple proposals for a

645
00:24:33,430 --> 00:24:31,120
solution just judging by my own

646
00:24:35,510 --> 00:24:33,440
intuitions currently and the ideas that

647
00:24:37,430 --> 00:24:35,520
i incessantly have

648
00:24:38,549 --> 00:24:37,440
so perhaps in six to seven years i may

649
00:24:41,750 --> 00:24:38,559
have

650
00:24:44,470 --> 00:24:41,760
a verbally coherent formulated

651
00:24:45,510 --> 00:24:44,480
idea or two or three as for the second

652
00:24:47,190 --> 00:24:45,520
claim that there's nothing about

653
00:24:48,149 --> 00:24:47,200
physical parameters and so on i don't

654
00:24:49,669 --> 00:24:48,159
know

655
00:24:52,230 --> 00:24:49,679
that's it's great that you have such

656
00:24:54,230 --> 00:24:52,240
certainty i wish i shared that brian

657
00:24:57,269 --> 00:24:54,240
redman says would what would be the holy

658
00:24:59,669 --> 00:24:57,279
grail interview in your opinion

659
00:25:02,789 --> 00:24:59,679
douglas hofstetter for me

660
00:25:04,230 --> 00:25:02,799
daniel dennett

661
00:25:07,110 --> 00:25:04,240
the dalai lama

662
00:25:08,390 --> 00:25:07,120
and dan ariely so those are the four d's

663
00:25:10,390 --> 00:25:08,400
let's say

664
00:25:11,990 --> 00:25:10,400
and what's cropped up recently someone

665
00:25:14,310 --> 00:25:12,000
that i would love to speak to would be

666
00:25:16,789 --> 00:25:14,320
camille vazquez there's also the two

667
00:25:18,950 --> 00:25:16,799
miyazaki's so that is the filmmaker and

668
00:25:21,750 --> 00:25:18,960
the video game designer sahiditaki

669
00:25:23,190 --> 00:25:21,760
miyazaki and i've forgotten the first

670
00:25:24,950 --> 00:25:23,200
name of the

671
00:25:27,269 --> 00:25:24,960
filmmaker i would love to speak to

672
00:25:29,110 --> 00:25:27,279
either one of them and hideo kojima

673
00:25:31,269 --> 00:25:29,120
who's a video game creator

674
00:25:33,430 --> 00:25:31,279
i also would like to talk to todd howard

675
00:25:36,230 --> 00:25:33,440
however i'm a sony fanboy and i'll be

676
00:25:37,990 --> 00:25:36,240
boycotting starfield mike says

677
00:25:39,909 --> 00:25:38,000
since you've begun this journey and have

678
00:25:41,909 --> 00:25:39,919
been flooded with such deep intellectual

679
00:25:44,310 --> 00:25:41,919
insight how has it affected you

680
00:25:46,470 --> 00:25:44,320
personally what do you believe have you

681
00:25:47,669 --> 00:25:46,480
noticed a change in yourself

682
00:25:49,110 --> 00:25:47,679
is this

683
00:25:49,990 --> 00:25:49,120
knowledge making a difference in your

684
00:25:51,669 --> 00:25:50,000
life

685
00:25:53,909 --> 00:25:51,679
and how you perceive or experience

686
00:25:56,470 --> 00:25:53,919
reality does all of this intellectual

687
00:26:06,149 --> 00:25:56,480
information increase a sense of knowing

688
00:26:09,590 --> 00:26:08,390
well i would say it's not pleasant in

689
00:26:14,230 --> 00:26:09,600
many ways

690
00:26:15,350 --> 00:26:14,240
superlative in others

691
00:26:16,549 --> 00:26:15,360
i wouldn't say that it's all

692
00:26:18,310 --> 00:26:16,559
intellectual

693
00:26:20,710 --> 00:26:18,320
theory

694
00:26:22,390 --> 00:26:20,720
i say that because this medium even this

695
00:26:25,669 --> 00:26:22,400
right now it's a video but it's also

696
00:26:27,669 --> 00:26:25,679
propositional primarily propositional

697
00:26:30,070 --> 00:26:27,679
but on the day-to-day it's experiential

698
00:26:31,590 --> 00:26:30,080
and that's not something that people see

699
00:26:32,710 --> 00:26:31,600
because they can't see it unless they're

700
00:26:35,350 --> 00:26:32,720
around me

701
00:26:38,390 --> 00:26:35,360
i've noticed changes in myself

702
00:26:42,230 --> 00:26:38,400
and many others have noticed changes as

703
00:26:44,149 --> 00:26:42,240
well in myself my wife has

704
00:26:45,510 --> 00:26:44,159
the comment section is filled with

705
00:26:48,789 --> 00:26:45,520
people who

706
00:26:50,950 --> 00:26:48,799
claim to see that i've changed

707
00:26:53,669 --> 00:26:50,960
in some manner i'm more grounded that's

708
00:26:56,710 --> 00:26:53,679
certainly true and i'm generally

709
00:26:58,549 --> 00:26:56,720
embarrassed by how i conduct

710
00:27:00,789 --> 00:26:58,559
myself

711
00:27:03,029 --> 00:27:00,799
three months prior to any given

712
00:27:04,950 --> 00:27:03,039
time so i look back at an interview that

713
00:27:07,669 --> 00:27:04,960
i've done two or three months ago and i

714
00:27:11,029 --> 00:27:07,679
just cringe i can't watch it that to me

715
00:27:13,430 --> 00:27:11,039
indicates some level of change

716
00:27:15,590 --> 00:27:13,440
implicitly when gina says you mentioned

717
00:27:17,750 --> 00:27:15,600
in toe with lou and sean that you have

718
00:27:19,190 --> 00:27:17,760
an idea about the purpose of all of this

719
00:27:21,430 --> 00:27:19,200
quote unquote

720
00:27:23,269 --> 00:27:21,440
similar to christian love line enemy

721
00:27:24,950 --> 00:27:23,279
union shadow integration

722
00:27:27,430 --> 00:27:24,960
buddhist

723
00:27:29,029 --> 00:27:27,440
loss of ego so i was wondering if you

724
00:27:31,350 --> 00:27:29,039
could talk a little bit about how you

725
00:27:33,430 --> 00:27:31,360
arrived at that idea

726
00:27:35,669 --> 00:27:33,440
and do you have a formalized practice

727
00:27:37,190 --> 00:27:35,679
practice for achieving this the state of

728
00:27:39,669 --> 00:27:37,200
being

729
00:27:55,110 --> 00:27:39,679
it's okay if it's too personal to share

730
00:28:06,630 --> 00:28:04,149
i

731
00:28:07,830 --> 00:28:06,640
share

732
00:28:10,149 --> 00:28:07,840
i would say that it's just not

733
00:28:12,389 --> 00:28:10,159
formulated

734
00:28:14,789 --> 00:28:12,399
at a verbal level enough for me to share

735
00:28:16,950 --> 00:28:14,799
in a manner that doesn't misguide rather

736
00:28:18,870 --> 00:28:16,960
than guide or rather than

737
00:28:21,510 --> 00:28:18,880
actually state what i

738
00:28:24,470 --> 00:28:22,870
the

739
00:28:26,470 --> 00:28:24,480
inarticulacy

740
00:28:28,630 --> 00:28:26,480
breeds the fear that

741
00:28:30,389 --> 00:28:28,640
what's shared will be

742
00:28:32,710 --> 00:28:30,399
misinterpreted

743
00:28:34,789 --> 00:28:32,720
stu n says what is time is it a human

744
00:28:36,950 --> 00:28:34,799
construct from long ago

745
00:28:39,350 --> 00:28:36,960
that has just become more developed

746
00:28:41,830 --> 00:28:39,360
without evolution from the scratches on

747
00:28:43,990 --> 00:28:41,840
a cave to a nuclear clock or is it a

748
00:28:46,630 --> 00:28:44,000
fundamental force of the universe i

749
00:28:47,830 --> 00:28:46,640
don't know when it comes to time i

750
00:28:49,430 --> 00:28:47,840
discuss that

751
00:28:51,029 --> 00:28:49,440
a bit with

752
00:28:54,710 --> 00:28:51,039
gen zed so i'll leave the link to that

753
00:28:59,510 --> 00:28:57,350
i will be exploring time

754
00:29:01,750 --> 00:28:59,520
more on the podcast later this year i

755
00:29:03,830 --> 00:29:01,760
know it's a controversial subject at

756
00:29:05,830 --> 00:29:03,840
least it's a controversial subject to

757
00:29:09,029 --> 00:29:05,840
not treat it as

758
00:29:16,310 --> 00:29:12,310
however we all have allodoxa phobia i

759
00:29:20,070 --> 00:29:16,320
just have to push through mine into this

760
00:29:22,230 --> 00:29:20,080
paradoxical and unsettled zone

761
00:29:23,830 --> 00:29:22,240
nevermind says how happy are you from a

762
00:29:25,909 --> 00:29:23,840
scale of one to one hundred with how

763
00:29:27,750 --> 00:29:25,919
things are going with the toe evolution

764
00:29:29,110 --> 00:29:27,760
can you share one thing you're not

765
00:29:32,070 --> 00:29:29,120
satisfied with and one thing you're

766
00:29:33,430 --> 00:29:32,080
extra proud of so i would say i'm at 80

767
00:29:35,669 --> 00:29:33,440
out of 100

768
00:29:36,710 --> 00:29:35,679
and i'm just a covetous

769
00:29:39,029 --> 00:29:36,720
selfish

770
00:29:41,110 --> 00:29:39,039
rivalrous person and the parts that i'm

771
00:29:42,630 --> 00:29:41,120
not terribly happy with tend to be parts

772
00:29:44,230 --> 00:29:42,640
where i feel like i'm underperforming

773
00:29:46,389 --> 00:29:44,240
relative to

774
00:29:47,830 --> 00:29:46,399
others or where i think i should be but

775
00:29:49,269 --> 00:29:47,840
they generally are in comparison to

776
00:29:50,630 --> 00:29:49,279
others there's this saying that you

777
00:29:51,750 --> 00:29:50,640
shouldn't compare yourself to others and

778
00:29:53,350 --> 00:29:51,760
you should compare yourself to yourself

779
00:29:55,669 --> 00:29:53,360
but you have almost no idea of a

780
00:29:58,549 --> 00:29:55,679
conception of self without a conception

781
00:29:59,909 --> 00:29:58,559
of others so i think that's a flawed

782
00:30:01,830 --> 00:29:59,919
statement

783
00:30:03,350 --> 00:30:01,840
though there's obviously merit to it so

784
00:30:06,389 --> 00:30:03,360
for example i'm

785
00:30:08,470 --> 00:30:06,399
upset with myself

786
00:30:10,149 --> 00:30:08,480
for having a psychological

787
00:30:12,230 --> 00:30:10,159
issue or some

788
00:30:14,870 --> 00:30:12,240
i don't want to call it a

789
00:30:16,789 --> 00:30:14,880
i won't tiptoe around it but regardless

790
00:30:19,190 --> 00:30:16,799
whatever has cropped up a few months ago

791
00:30:21,510 --> 00:30:19,200
four months ago or so and that to me i

792
00:30:22,789 --> 00:30:21,520
feel like has taken seven months i

793
00:30:24,870 --> 00:30:22,799
imagine that it'll take me three more

794
00:30:28,230 --> 00:30:24,880
months to get back to normalcy it's

795
00:30:31,110 --> 00:30:28,240
taken seven months of

796
00:30:33,590 --> 00:30:31,120
of my life in a sense from me i'm upset

797
00:30:35,510 --> 00:30:33,600
with myself that i felt what i felt i'm

798
00:30:38,230 --> 00:30:35,520
upset that i allowed myself to get in

799
00:30:39,909 --> 00:30:38,240
the condition where i could feel such

800
00:30:43,110 --> 00:30:39,919
dismay and horror

801
00:30:44,710 --> 00:30:43,120
and that because of it for the past

802
00:30:46,149 --> 00:30:44,720
five months now or four and a half

803
00:30:48,630 --> 00:30:46,159
months now

804
00:30:51,510 --> 00:30:48,640
i've been functioning at a about 30 my

805
00:30:53,269 --> 00:30:51,520
regular capacity

806
00:30:55,269 --> 00:30:53,279
there's this there's many studies done

807
00:30:57,510 --> 00:30:55,279
on sleeping and they suggest that if you

808
00:30:58,950 --> 00:30:57,520
get less than seven hours of sleep

809
00:30:59,990 --> 00:30:58,960
for two nights in a row it's like you're

810
00:31:00,870 --> 00:31:00,000
missing

811
00:31:02,830 --> 00:31:00,880
sleep

812
00:31:06,230 --> 00:31:02,840
for an entire 24

813
00:31:07,669 --> 00:31:06,240
hours well i haven't had a night's rest

814
00:31:09,430 --> 00:31:07,679
that's been more than six hours

815
00:31:11,110 --> 00:31:09,440
consistently for weeks and weeks and

816
00:31:14,230 --> 00:31:11,120
weeks so i imagine that's having an

817
00:31:16,549 --> 00:31:14,240
extreme detrimental effect on my brain

818
00:31:19,669 --> 00:31:16,559
and certainly my cognition i can feel it

819
00:31:21,909 --> 00:31:19,679
and certainly my stamina i can feel that

820
00:31:23,909 --> 00:31:21,919
so the parts that i'm thrilled thrilled

821
00:31:26,870 --> 00:31:23,919
thrilled thrilled about is the effects

822
00:31:28,710 --> 00:31:26,880
that toe has had on people

823
00:31:30,710 --> 00:31:28,720
its toe is essentially everything that i

824
00:31:33,190 --> 00:31:30,720
would ideally like to do

825
00:31:34,789 --> 00:31:33,200
outside of video editing

826
00:31:36,470 --> 00:31:34,799
and and

827
00:31:37,990 --> 00:31:36,480
luckily the patrons

828
00:31:41,430 --> 00:31:38,000
helped me hire up

829
00:31:46,070 --> 00:31:41,440
a freelancer and the parts that i

830
00:31:48,389 --> 00:31:46,080
that i'm extremely i can barely

831
00:31:49,350 --> 00:31:48,399
i can't believe that i'm able to do this

832
00:31:51,590 --> 00:31:49,360
and

833
00:31:54,070 --> 00:31:51,600
well the parts that i love are the

834
00:31:55,350 --> 00:31:54,080
researching of physics and toes in

835
00:31:57,190 --> 00:31:55,360
general theories of everything in

836
00:31:58,789 --> 00:31:57,200
general that i can

837
00:32:00,310 --> 00:31:58,799
try to understand the universe and

838
00:32:01,990 --> 00:32:00,320
whatever that means and try to

839
00:32:03,990 --> 00:32:02,000
understand consciousness quote unquote

840
00:32:05,990 --> 00:32:04,000
whatever that means in free will

841
00:32:08,950 --> 00:32:06,000
and speak to the brightest

842
00:32:11,430 --> 00:32:08,960
minds of our time be able to do so at

843
00:32:14,070 --> 00:32:11,440
home which fits my

844
00:32:16,549 --> 00:32:14,080
umbratic nature and be able to work on

845
00:32:17,430 --> 00:32:16,559
my own schedule as well

846
00:32:19,509 --> 00:32:17,440
it's

847
00:32:21,909 --> 00:32:19,519
as much a personal quest

848
00:32:24,710 --> 00:32:21,919
like a transformational personal quest

849
00:32:27,430 --> 00:32:24,720
quest as it is about explicating to

850
00:32:29,830 --> 00:32:27,440
others and this is all being done

851
00:32:32,789 --> 00:32:29,840
supported by people on patreon so i'm

852
00:32:33,990 --> 00:32:32,799
supported by people who

853
00:32:36,149 --> 00:32:34,000
like the

854
00:32:37,509 --> 00:32:36,159
mission and want to see

855
00:32:39,669 --> 00:32:37,519
for example i

856
00:32:41,269 --> 00:32:39,679
i've been taking some time to study

857
00:32:43,350 --> 00:32:41,279
without placing out content for about a

858
00:32:45,110 --> 00:32:43,360
month i'm able to do so because of

859
00:32:48,149 --> 00:32:45,120
patreon

860
00:32:50,549 --> 00:32:48,159
it's growing extremely quickly i'm

861
00:32:52,789 --> 00:32:50,559
i'm thrilled about that especially for a

862
00:32:54,549 --> 00:32:52,799
podcast as

863
00:32:59,830 --> 00:32:54,559
as

864
00:33:00,870 --> 00:32:59,840
technical it generally requires that

865
00:33:03,190 --> 00:33:00,880
that you've

866
00:33:05,430 --> 00:33:03,200
watched many hours of this person on

867
00:33:07,269 --> 00:33:05,440
someone else's channel to get an

868
00:33:09,669 --> 00:33:07,279
introduction because i tend to not make

869
00:33:13,029 --> 00:33:09,679
it introductory like other

870
00:33:14,549 --> 00:33:13,039
larger podcasts the content is narrow

871
00:33:16,230 --> 00:33:14,559
it's narrowly focused about

872
00:33:17,990 --> 00:33:16,240
understanding reality rather than just

873
00:33:20,950 --> 00:33:18,000
interviewing people who are popular for

874
00:33:22,830 --> 00:33:20,960
the sake of interviewing people

875
00:33:26,070 --> 00:33:22,840
so i'm

876
00:33:28,149 --> 00:33:26,080
i'm i i'm extremely thrilled i i can't

877
00:33:29,990 --> 00:33:28,159
believe that i

878
00:33:31,909 --> 00:33:30,000
i wake up

879
00:33:34,310 --> 00:33:31,919
excited about work

880
00:33:36,149 --> 00:33:34,320
almost every single day for the past two

881
00:33:36,830 --> 00:33:36,159
years

882
00:34:18,869 --> 00:33:36,840
i

883
00:34:20,790 --> 00:34:18,879
that's because

884
00:34:25,270 --> 00:34:20,800
it's rumbling this mic and every time i

885
00:34:27,669 --> 00:34:25,280
have the urge to urinate my leg shakes

886
00:34:29,909 --> 00:34:27,679
dramatically and every time i'm nervous

887
00:34:32,069 --> 00:34:29,919
i shake my leg as well so it's either

888
00:34:34,470 --> 00:34:32,079
nervousness or a urination urge

889
00:34:39,510 --> 00:34:34,480
dustin gibson says what tool are you

890
00:34:43,270 --> 00:34:41,349
so what he's referring to is the crash

891
00:34:45,990 --> 00:34:43,280
course on physics again that'll be

892
00:34:47,510 --> 00:34:46,000
listed somewhere along here

893
00:34:49,909 --> 00:34:47,520
it's an ipad

894
00:34:53,109 --> 00:34:49,919
i'm not a fan of apple products i don't

895
00:34:55,030 --> 00:34:53,119
i don't use apple in any other

896
00:34:57,670 --> 00:34:55,040
for any other reason it's just that they

897
00:35:01,750 --> 00:34:57,680
have an unparalleled note-taking app

898
00:35:04,310 --> 00:35:01,760
and the screen refresh rate is

899
00:35:06,710 --> 00:35:04,320
hertz though i unwittingly bought the

900
00:35:08,230 --> 00:35:06,720
model that was 60 hertz

901
00:35:09,910 --> 00:35:08,240
i didn't realize that the more expensive

902
00:35:13,109 --> 00:35:09,920
one was the one that was 120 i thought

903
00:35:14,630 --> 00:35:13,119
they all had 120. so i would much prefer

904
00:35:17,510 --> 00:35:14,640
if there was some android tablet or a

905
00:35:19,990 --> 00:35:17,520
windows one that had 120 hertz and a

906
00:35:21,829 --> 00:35:20,000
great note-taking app but

907
00:35:23,750 --> 00:35:21,839
i'm using apple

908
00:35:25,750 --> 00:35:23,760
in the interim

909
00:35:27,190 --> 00:35:25,760
torico says kurt i wanted to ask you say

910
00:35:29,109 --> 00:35:27,200
that you've gotten quicker at processing

911
00:35:31,270 --> 00:35:29,119
and categorizing people's toes because

912
00:35:34,550 --> 00:35:31,280
of how many times that you've done it

913
00:35:36,710 --> 00:35:34,560
yes that's generally true tori and tori

914
00:35:38,470 --> 00:35:36,720
says i would assume that you have

915
00:35:41,270 --> 00:35:38,480
plenty of

916
00:35:43,109 --> 00:35:41,280
once firm but now violently shaken

917
00:35:44,870 --> 00:35:43,119
beliefs violently shaken is a great word

918
00:35:47,829 --> 00:35:44,880
yes yes yes throughout your life and

919
00:35:50,150 --> 00:35:47,839
experience of life as an aside

920
00:35:53,349 --> 00:35:50,160
an academic article or

921
00:35:55,190 --> 00:35:53,359
thesis of high caliber is akin to ikea

922
00:35:56,230 --> 00:35:55,200
furniture the assembling of ikea

923
00:35:58,630 --> 00:35:56,240
furniture

924
00:36:00,550 --> 00:35:58,640
where one constructs the manual

925
00:36:03,030 --> 00:36:00,560
so that's the thesis statement the

926
00:36:04,550 --> 00:36:03,040
overview and then one places the screws

927
00:36:06,710 --> 00:36:04,560
and various slots and the products on

928
00:36:09,349 --> 00:36:06,720
the ground and

929
00:36:12,069 --> 00:36:09,359
again gaining an overview of

930
00:36:13,430 --> 00:36:12,079
more delineated objects specifically and

931
00:36:15,589 --> 00:36:13,440
that's like the

932
00:36:16,630 --> 00:36:15,599
mison plus if you're a

933
00:36:19,349 --> 00:36:16,640
chef

934
00:36:21,190 --> 00:36:19,359
or the statement of the paragraphs in a

935
00:36:23,349 --> 00:36:21,200
academic thesis

936
00:36:25,430 --> 00:36:23,359
and then toward the end it's all brought

937
00:36:27,430 --> 00:36:25,440
together where you arrange it cohesively

938
00:36:29,670 --> 00:36:27,440
and you present the final product now

939
00:36:32,950 --> 00:36:29,680
the toe podcast or the toe channel

940
00:36:35,430 --> 00:36:32,960
however one wants to conceptualize it is

941
00:36:37,190 --> 00:36:35,440
much like that except without a manual

942
00:36:39,030 --> 00:36:37,200
without knowing

943
00:36:41,829 --> 00:36:39,040
how many pieces there are

944
00:36:43,430 --> 00:36:41,839
if what you have is even complete

945
00:36:45,829 --> 00:36:43,440
and you don't know what it's going to

946
00:36:48,950 --> 00:36:45,839
look like finally you're guided by some

947
00:36:51,109 --> 00:36:48,960
intuitions you see bits and detritus and

948
00:36:52,870 --> 00:36:51,119
wreckage and you try to assemble it and

949
00:36:54,950 --> 00:36:52,880
then you think you have a handle on it

950
00:36:56,310 --> 00:36:54,960
but some new piece of information comes

951
00:36:57,190 --> 00:36:56,320
in and you realize that what you thought

952
00:36:59,349 --> 00:36:57,200
was a

953
00:37:00,870 --> 00:36:59,359
shelf is a book case and then you

954
00:37:02,550 --> 00:37:00,880
realize you're missing some large blocks

955
00:37:04,790 --> 00:37:02,560
or this one doesn't fit and you realize

956
00:37:06,950 --> 00:37:04,800
oh it's a refrigerator so in a sense you

957
00:37:09,270 --> 00:37:06,960
have some model and you see that if this

958
00:37:10,870 --> 00:37:09,280
was to look like what i think it is

959
00:37:13,589 --> 00:37:10,880
i would need a screw here and a screw

960
00:37:15,270 --> 00:37:13,599
here and a block here and so on and that

961
00:37:16,310 --> 00:37:15,280
in this this analogy

962
00:37:17,589 --> 00:37:16,320
for a

963
00:37:19,990 --> 00:37:17,599
physics toe that would be like the

964
00:37:21,190 --> 00:37:20,000
prediction of new particles and high

965
00:37:22,550 --> 00:37:21,200
energy physics where you see that

966
00:37:23,750 --> 00:37:22,560
there's some pattern except there are a

967
00:37:25,829 --> 00:37:23,760
few missing

968
00:37:28,069 --> 00:37:25,839
or it's like a missing cognitive piece

969
00:37:29,910 --> 00:37:28,079
for a veltan xiaomi but you

970
00:37:32,310 --> 00:37:29,920
search and search and you don't find it

971
00:37:33,990 --> 00:37:32,320
so you have to recast what you think it

972
00:37:36,630 --> 00:37:34,000
is from scratch

973
00:37:38,550 --> 00:37:36,640
multiple times over tory cole says so in

974
00:37:40,710 --> 00:37:38,560
the midst of there being no firm grant

975
00:37:42,470 --> 00:37:40,720
ground to stand on that's true

976
00:37:46,950 --> 00:37:42,480
to the extent of

977
00:37:49,349 --> 00:37:46,960
enough to label and categorize

978
00:37:51,510 --> 00:37:49,359
these shaken beliefs what belief do you

979
00:37:54,230 --> 00:37:51,520
have that's not shaken enough to

980
00:38:07,589 --> 00:37:54,240
continue to pursue toe and to even wake

981
00:38:12,230 --> 00:38:11,349
that there's a good worth striving for

982
00:38:19,270 --> 00:38:12,240
and

983
00:38:20,950 --> 00:38:19,280
everything

984
00:38:23,750 --> 00:38:20,960
and then my

985
00:38:26,950 --> 00:38:25,349
thoughts about

986
00:38:31,349 --> 00:38:26,960
doubting the good

987
00:38:35,190 --> 00:38:33,510
it's difficult to talk about without

988
00:38:42,870 --> 00:38:35,200
sounding

989
00:38:47,670 --> 00:38:44,870
right right and then my let's say my

990
00:38:49,190 --> 00:38:47,680
darkest thoughts that are debilitating

991
00:38:51,670 --> 00:38:49,200
that

992
00:38:57,030 --> 00:38:51,680
come from a doubtful nature can be

993
00:39:01,349 --> 00:38:58,630
and that it's arrogance for me to feel

994
00:39:02,630 --> 00:39:01,359
so much suffering because i'm assuming

995
00:39:03,589 --> 00:39:02,640
with my body

996
00:39:05,750 --> 00:39:03,599
that

997
00:39:06,790 --> 00:39:05,760
whatever model or conceptualization i

998
00:39:07,750 --> 00:39:06,800
have

999
00:39:12,790 --> 00:39:07,760
is

1000
00:39:15,910 --> 00:39:12,800
and

1001
00:39:18,310 --> 00:39:15,920
the darkness was gotten to by doubting

1002
00:39:21,270 --> 00:39:18,320
benevolence or certain aspects of

1003
00:39:23,270 --> 00:39:21,280
reality so why not doubt the doubts

1004
00:39:27,270 --> 00:39:23,280
apply them to themselves and that gives

1005
00:39:34,150 --> 00:39:29,750
along with praying

1006
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:38,069
as an agnostic

1007
00:39:43,030 --> 00:39:41,030
because it's not like i have an

1008
00:39:45,349 --> 00:39:43,040
object to direct my prayers like an

1009
00:39:46,790 --> 00:39:45,359
entity

1010
00:39:49,109 --> 00:39:46,800
but i

1011
00:39:50,470 --> 00:39:49,119
i pray for faith

1012
00:39:51,510 --> 00:39:50,480
frequently

1013
00:39:54,230 --> 00:39:51,520
i

1014
00:40:00,150 --> 00:39:54,240
for

1015
00:40:03,190 --> 00:40:00,160
i'm not grateful to anywhere near the

1016
00:40:04,310 --> 00:40:03,200
degree i i should be or i could be

1017
00:40:07,030 --> 00:40:04,320
and

1018
00:40:10,230 --> 00:40:07,040
the simple act of praying helps a great

1019
00:40:11,589 --> 00:40:10,240
great great great deal

1020
00:40:12,790 --> 00:40:11,599
mike duffy

1021
00:40:15,190 --> 00:40:12,800
says

1022
00:40:16,870 --> 00:40:15,200
for an ama can you do a quick overview

1023
00:40:19,190 --> 00:40:16,880
of your podcast setup and what equipment

1024
00:40:21,109 --> 00:40:19,200
you use if you want what i can do mike

1025
00:40:22,710 --> 00:40:21,119
is and if anyone else is interested i

1026
00:40:26,230 --> 00:40:22,720
can do a

1027
00:40:28,310 --> 00:40:26,240
separate video

1028
00:40:31,510 --> 00:40:28,320
of simply what it takes to prepare for a

1029
00:40:33,670 --> 00:40:31,520
tow podcast and go over my setup there

1030
00:40:35,430 --> 00:40:33,680
fanny ram says how many hours a day does

1031
00:40:38,390 --> 00:40:35,440
curt get to study how many hours for a

1032
00:40:41,109 --> 00:40:38,400
workout so i used to work about 12 hours

1033
00:40:44,230 --> 00:40:41,119
a day or so now i can do it for about

1034
00:40:47,750 --> 00:40:44,240
four or five hours though yesterday i i

1035
00:40:49,589 --> 00:40:47,760
did maybe 14 or 15 hours so it varies

1036
00:40:50,550 --> 00:40:49,599
but on average it's about four or five

1037
00:40:52,790 --> 00:40:50,560
now

1038
00:40:54,710 --> 00:40:52,800
given recent events

1039
00:40:57,829 --> 00:40:54,720
and working out is about 20 minutes to

1040
00:41:00,550 --> 00:40:57,839
30 minutes a day on average

1041
00:41:02,470 --> 00:41:00,560
fanny also asks kurt seems so well

1042
00:41:04,710 --> 00:41:02,480
studied thank you before an interview

1043
00:41:07,670 --> 00:41:04,720
sometimes without sleep that's true

1044
00:41:09,589 --> 00:41:07,680
how come he doesn't get divorced

1045
00:41:12,550 --> 00:41:09,599
so it's because i prioritize time with

1046
00:41:14,550 --> 00:41:12,560
my wife fanny it's what keeps me sane

1047
00:41:15,510 --> 00:41:14,560
it's also what makes life worth it for

1048
00:41:17,349 --> 00:41:15,520
myself

1049
00:41:18,870 --> 00:41:17,359
i used to think that all that matters is

1050
00:41:20,870 --> 00:41:18,880
work

1051
00:41:24,150 --> 00:41:20,880
and i remember planning out a route to

1052
00:41:26,710 --> 00:41:25,349
now

1053
00:41:27,990 --> 00:41:26,720
i don't even care about being a

1054
00:41:29,829 --> 00:41:28,000
millionaire

1055
00:41:32,710 --> 00:41:29,839
outside of the financial security that

1056
00:41:34,390 --> 00:41:32,720
owning a million or two provides clearly

1057
00:41:35,910 --> 00:41:34,400
such as being able to afford a home here

1058
00:41:38,069 --> 00:41:35,920
in toronto right now i'm a rent i'm

1059
00:41:40,630 --> 00:41:38,079
renting and pay for whatever my family

1060
00:41:42,870 --> 00:41:40,640
needs such as an emergency or to send my

1061
00:41:44,710 --> 00:41:42,880
parents on a vacation

1062
00:41:48,150 --> 00:41:44,720
or buy

1063
00:41:52,470 --> 00:41:48,160
my in-laws a car

1064
00:41:56,470 --> 00:41:54,069
almost all i care about now is being a

1065
00:41:57,990 --> 00:41:56,480
good husband

1066
00:41:59,829 --> 00:41:58,000
and

1067
00:42:01,510 --> 00:41:59,839
that's that's been something that i've

1068
00:42:03,430 --> 00:42:01,520
come to the conclusion of over the past

1069
00:42:05,109 --> 00:42:03,440
couple months

1070
00:42:06,630 --> 00:42:05,119
it's

1071
00:42:08,550 --> 00:42:06,640
the

1072
00:42:11,990 --> 00:42:08,560
feeling that

1073
00:42:14,069 --> 00:42:12,000
all will fade in some manner

1074
00:42:17,030 --> 00:42:14,079
and that whatever prideful importance i

1075
00:42:21,030 --> 00:42:17,040
think i have firstly is it's far less

1076
00:42:25,430 --> 00:42:23,510
even if it's the same as my inflated ego

1077
00:42:28,710 --> 00:42:25,440
wants to believe then

1078
00:42:32,150 --> 00:42:28,720
this is only a fleeting moment

1079
00:42:36,470 --> 00:42:34,390
anything it has to stand the test of

1080
00:42:38,710 --> 00:42:36,480
something akin to time i don't say time

1081
00:42:40,550 --> 00:42:38,720
because i don't believe that

1082
00:42:42,710 --> 00:42:40,560
looking at some temporal duration is

1083
00:42:43,589 --> 00:42:42,720
what matters

1084
00:42:45,670 --> 00:42:43,599
but

1085
00:42:48,309 --> 00:42:45,680
it's something akin to time

1086
00:42:50,309 --> 00:42:48,319
and that there's an integral

1087
00:42:52,950 --> 00:42:50,319
connection between doing what's

1088
00:42:54,150 --> 00:42:52,960
temporary and what's sinful i'm using

1089
00:42:56,150 --> 00:42:54,160
plenty of

1090
00:42:58,390 --> 00:42:56,160
religious language i

1091
00:42:59,910 --> 00:42:58,400
i understand i i see

1092
00:43:01,670 --> 00:42:59,920
and

1093
00:43:04,309 --> 00:43:01,680
if you like you can

1094
00:43:05,430 --> 00:43:04,319
convert it to whatever secular

1095
00:43:08,230 --> 00:43:05,440
version

1096
00:43:09,829 --> 00:43:08,240
or synonym you would like to if

1097
00:43:11,589 --> 00:43:09,839
you find that you're unable to conceive

1098
00:43:13,829 --> 00:43:11,599
of yourself as anything other than a

1099
00:43:16,790 --> 00:43:13,839
rational being

1100
00:43:20,550 --> 00:43:17,910
if

1101
00:43:22,550 --> 00:43:20,560
whatever this is is only a moment

1102
00:43:24,870 --> 00:43:22,560
relatively speaking then it would be

1103
00:43:27,430 --> 00:43:24,880
worth every

1104
00:43:29,829 --> 00:43:27,440
little bit if it's with my wife and if

1105
00:43:31,829 --> 00:43:29,839
she feels adored and if i feel the same

1106
00:43:34,309 --> 00:43:31,839
and that's priceless there's there's an

1107
00:43:40,870 --> 00:43:34,319
infinite quality to that an infinite

1108
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,150
whatever else i

1109
00:43:50,870 --> 00:43:47,910
i do may be misrepresented and taken

1110
00:43:52,950 --> 00:43:50,880
from me diana pasulka and i discussed

1111
00:43:54,870 --> 00:43:52,960
this that

1112
00:43:56,470 --> 00:43:54,880
people take the nirvana logo kids do and

1113
00:43:58,230 --> 00:43:56,480
they have no idea what nirvana music

1114
00:44:00,710 --> 00:43:58,240
sounds like or

1115
00:44:03,270 --> 00:44:00,720
the good fortune in san cri sanskrit

1116
00:44:05,349 --> 00:44:03,280
becomes the nazi symbol so it's it's as

1117
00:44:07,270 --> 00:44:05,359
if what you do escapes you after you've

1118
00:44:08,870 --> 00:44:07,280
done it additionally

1119
00:44:09,750 --> 00:44:08,880
whatever one does

1120
00:44:11,750 --> 00:44:09,760
will get

1121
00:44:13,190 --> 00:44:11,760
critiqued by those who are seeking

1122
00:44:16,230 --> 00:44:13,200
status

1123
00:44:17,510 --> 00:44:16,240
i know i do this frequently i'm

1124
00:44:18,470 --> 00:44:17,520
extremely

1125
00:44:19,510 --> 00:44:18,480
jealous

1126
00:44:21,190 --> 00:44:19,520
and

1127
00:44:23,670 --> 00:44:21,200
we all are

1128
00:44:25,349 --> 00:44:23,680
i see it in myself thirdly it will be

1129
00:44:27,829 --> 00:44:25,359
forgotten in

1130
00:44:30,390 --> 00:44:27,839
decades or centuries it's rare that it

1131
00:44:32,870 --> 00:44:30,400
would last longer than that so what will

1132
00:44:35,750 --> 00:44:32,880
be worth it in the end now in the end

1133
00:44:37,430 --> 00:44:35,760
again i'm using time there and i don't

1134
00:44:38,309 --> 00:44:37,440
mean to it's just i don't know if we

1135
00:44:40,390 --> 00:44:38,319
have the

1136
00:44:41,430 --> 00:44:40,400
the language i think that it's all worth

1137
00:44:44,150 --> 00:44:41,440
it

1138
00:44:47,430 --> 00:44:44,160
in the end

1139
00:44:48,950 --> 00:44:47,440
if it's about harmony and forgiveness

1140
00:44:58,630 --> 00:44:48,960
and

1141
00:45:00,390 --> 00:44:58,640
that i'm able to do it with

1142
00:45:02,870 --> 00:45:00,400
with her the more i'm able to do that

1143
00:45:07,670 --> 00:45:02,880
broadly with others and feel it from

1144
00:45:09,750 --> 00:45:07,680
others and even extend that to

1145
00:45:11,750 --> 00:45:09,760
say homeless people on the streets who i

1146
00:45:16,390 --> 00:45:11,760
never used to donate to

1147
00:45:22,150 --> 00:45:19,270
intimation that the quality of a society

1148
00:45:23,910 --> 00:45:22,160
is how we treat

1149
00:45:25,510 --> 00:45:23,920
the homeless people

1150
00:45:27,510 --> 00:45:25,520
in our society and i mean that at a

1151
00:45:28,790 --> 00:45:27,520
personal level not a governmental level

1152
00:45:30,230 --> 00:45:28,800
because as soon as you say well the

1153
00:45:31,750 --> 00:45:30,240
government should take care of it i

1154
00:45:33,349 --> 00:45:31,760
think they should

1155
00:45:36,069 --> 00:45:33,359
but that doesn't mean that you don't or

1156
00:45:37,109 --> 00:45:36,079
i don't have more way way more than

1157
00:45:40,230 --> 00:45:37,119
enough

1158
00:45:42,230 --> 00:45:40,240
to donate and help them

1159
00:45:44,550 --> 00:45:42,240
and speak to them like they're

1160
00:45:47,829 --> 00:45:44,560
they're people that aren't just the

1161
00:45:52,309 --> 00:45:47,839
receivers of your

1162
00:45:54,630 --> 00:45:52,319
elementary nature so that you can feel

1163
00:45:56,950 --> 00:45:54,640
like you're doing something good when

1164
00:46:03,589 --> 00:45:58,550
it's to

1165
00:46:07,430 --> 00:46:05,430
it's not coming from the right place and

1166
00:46:08,790 --> 00:46:07,440
you speak or at least i

1167
00:46:11,270 --> 00:46:08,800
would have

1168
00:46:13,510 --> 00:46:11,280
if i'm donating i would stand and give

1169
00:46:15,990 --> 00:46:13,520
them the money i think it's better to to

1170
00:46:20,150 --> 00:46:16,000
sit at their level their level even that

1171
00:46:25,190 --> 00:46:20,160
has a patronizing bend to it

1172
00:46:32,150 --> 00:46:27,349
kindness

1173
00:46:36,309 --> 00:46:33,870
it also helps me

1174
00:46:38,309 --> 00:46:36,319
retroactively change

1175
00:46:40,150 --> 00:46:38,319
the past and that's extremely

1176
00:46:42,630 --> 00:46:40,160
interesting because we talked about time

1177
00:46:44,710 --> 00:46:42,640
so how does that work i think about the

1178
00:46:47,109 --> 00:46:44,720
times that i've been hurt and there are

1179
00:46:48,470 --> 00:46:47,119
plenty of times and i

1180
00:46:50,710 --> 00:46:48,480
mainly think about the times that i've

1181
00:46:53,030 --> 00:46:50,720
been hurt

1182
00:46:55,510 --> 00:46:53,040
in relationships and so on and i'm able

1183
00:46:57,990 --> 00:46:55,520
to recontextualize them as positive

1184
00:46:59,990 --> 00:46:58,000
experiences now carl pilkington once

1185
00:47:02,150 --> 00:47:00,000
said that you don't know if you enjoyed

1186
00:47:04,150 --> 00:47:02,160
a vacation until years later because you

1187
00:47:06,390 --> 00:47:04,160
look back and you say well when i was

1188
00:47:08,309 --> 00:47:06,400
swinging on that swing set it started to

1189
00:47:10,390 --> 00:47:08,319
rain and i had to duck for cover and i

1190
00:47:12,630 --> 00:47:10,400
hated it at the time but i look back on

1191
00:47:15,430 --> 00:47:12,640
it fondly and i realized quote unquote

1192
00:47:17,589 --> 00:47:15,440
that i indeed enjoyed it it was fun

1193
00:47:19,829 --> 00:47:17,599
ricky gervais then interrupted and said

1194
00:47:21,750 --> 00:47:19,839
no no you didn't have fun

1195
00:47:24,309 --> 00:47:21,760
you look back and think it's fun but

1196
00:47:26,950 --> 00:47:24,319
that's not the same thing

1197
00:47:29,190 --> 00:47:26,960
and i remember agreeing with ricky i no

1198
00:47:32,309 --> 00:47:29,200
longer

1199
00:47:34,069 --> 00:47:32,319
i i don't know if i do any

1200
00:47:36,630 --> 00:47:34,079
anymore i don't know if it's the case

1201
00:47:38,470 --> 00:47:36,640
that however you felt in the past is

1202
00:47:40,390 --> 00:47:38,480
stamped down

1203
00:47:43,510 --> 00:47:40,400
and it's fixed i think that there's

1204
00:47:45,270 --> 00:47:43,520
something about recontextualizing

1205
00:47:47,829 --> 00:47:45,280
one's emotions about an event that

1206
00:47:49,750 --> 00:47:47,839
somehow actually changed the event

1207
00:47:51,829 --> 00:47:49,760
and well it's it's strange to think like

1208
00:47:53,670 --> 00:47:51,839
that because then you have to have as a

1209
00:47:55,910 --> 00:47:53,680
different basis something different than

1210
00:47:57,750 --> 00:47:55,920
materialism or physicalism

1211
00:47:59,190 --> 00:47:57,760
you have to somehow take the emotions as

1212
00:48:00,630 --> 00:47:59,200
primary and there are philosophical

1213
00:48:03,589 --> 00:48:00,640
strains that do so for example

1214
00:48:06,309 --> 00:48:03,599
phenomenology i don't know if if the

1215
00:48:07,109 --> 00:48:06,319
experience of the initial emotion has

1216
00:48:10,069 --> 00:48:07,119
some

1217
00:48:12,550 --> 00:48:10,079
canonical status over one's experience

1218
00:48:14,630 --> 00:48:12,560
now projecting onto the past it's not

1219
00:48:15,990 --> 00:48:14,640
clear to me at all it's intuitively not

1220
00:48:17,990 --> 00:48:16,000
clear and i think we all feel this

1221
00:48:19,109 --> 00:48:18,000
because we've had moments like this but

1222
00:48:20,710 --> 00:48:19,119
just because we feel it doesn't mean

1223
00:48:22,390 --> 00:48:20,720
it's true but doesn't mean it's not true

1224
00:48:24,230 --> 00:48:22,400
i'm still thinking about it so this

1225
00:48:27,030 --> 00:48:24,240
means that going back to the original

1226
00:48:27,910 --> 00:48:27,040
statement of me finding primary being a

1227
00:48:29,430 --> 00:48:27,920
good

1228
00:48:31,910 --> 00:48:29,440
husband

1229
00:48:33,990 --> 00:48:31,920
or a good son or good son of the good or

1230
00:48:35,589 --> 00:48:34,000
a good son of the universe or what

1231
00:48:37,589 --> 00:48:35,599
whatever this means

1232
00:48:38,549 --> 00:48:37,599
that somehow this has to do with being

1233
00:48:39,829 --> 00:48:38,559
kind

1234
00:48:41,430 --> 00:48:39,839
and

1235
00:48:43,829 --> 00:48:41,440
merciful

1236
00:48:45,910 --> 00:48:43,839
and munificent

1237
00:48:50,630 --> 00:48:45,920
and

1238
00:48:52,470 --> 00:48:50,640
it makes it not only worth it in the end

1239
00:48:55,030 --> 00:48:52,480
but it makes it worth it certainly in

1240
00:48:56,950 --> 00:48:55,040
the present but perhaps even in the past

1241
00:48:59,430 --> 00:48:56,960
which means it makes it eternally worth

1242
00:49:01,190 --> 00:48:59,440
it wittgenstein had a quote about this

1243
00:49:04,230 --> 00:49:01,200
by the way he said that if

1244
00:49:05,990 --> 00:49:04,240
if we were to take eternity not to mean

1245
00:49:08,950 --> 00:49:06,000
infinite temporal duration but

1246
00:49:11,829 --> 00:49:08,960
timelessness then an eternal life

1247
00:49:13,109 --> 00:49:11,839
belongs or belong to those who live in

1248
00:49:15,670 --> 00:49:13,119
the

1249
00:49:18,870 --> 00:49:17,510
i think he may be correct

1250
00:49:20,309 --> 00:49:18,880
though it takes an extreme amount of

1251
00:49:23,030 --> 00:49:20,319
courage to live in the present at least

1252
00:49:25,430 --> 00:49:23,040
for myself it's not it's it's no

1253
00:49:26,390 --> 00:49:25,440
trivially just no trifling trivial

1254
00:49:27,589 --> 00:49:26,400
matter

1255
00:49:29,589 --> 00:49:27,599
it's

1256
00:49:31,990 --> 00:49:29,599
extremely formidable

1257
00:49:33,349 --> 00:49:32,000
i think he's correct though i don't i

1258
00:49:36,470 --> 00:49:33,359
think that the mechanism may apply to

1259
00:49:38,630 --> 00:49:36,480
the future into the past as well

1260
00:49:40,470 --> 00:49:38,640
okay joseph pts wants to know would you

1261
00:49:42,069 --> 00:49:40,480
consider having eric back on to

1262
00:49:43,589 --> 00:49:42,079
specifically discuss the physics of

1263
00:49:45,990 --> 00:49:43,599
geometric unity

1264
00:49:47,589 --> 00:49:46,000
yes when i have the time to make a video

1265
00:49:49,829 --> 00:49:47,599
about how to go through a physics paper

1266
00:49:51,349 --> 00:49:49,839
that one currently doesn't understand so

1267
00:49:53,589 --> 00:49:51,359
i referenced that in the

1268
00:49:55,349 --> 00:49:53,599
crash course on physics

1269
00:49:57,030 --> 00:49:55,359
and

1270
00:50:00,630 --> 00:49:57,040
i would like to tell you all about the

1271
00:50:02,309 --> 00:50:00,640
schedule but i i don't have much

1272
00:50:05,589 --> 00:50:02,319
time left here this has already taken so

1273
00:50:07,109 --> 00:50:05,599
much more than i thought i'm only about

1274
00:50:09,670 --> 00:50:07,119
a quarter of the way done i thought it'd

1275
00:50:13,030 --> 00:50:09,680
be half done or more the point of the

1276
00:50:14,870 --> 00:50:13,040
tow podcast is for it to lead somewhere

1277
00:50:16,950 --> 00:50:14,880
it's not simply interviewing people for

1278
00:50:18,069 --> 00:50:16,960
the sake of speaking to people that i'm

1279
00:50:21,270 --> 00:50:18,079
interested in

1280
00:50:22,790 --> 00:50:21,280
like rogan or lex or a russell brand

1281
00:50:24,150 --> 00:50:22,800
though they're great great great

1282
00:50:25,109 --> 00:50:24,160
podcasts

1283
00:50:26,549 --> 00:50:25,119
and

1284
00:50:29,670 --> 00:50:26,559
i'm i'm not diminishing them in the

1285
00:50:31,829 --> 00:50:29,680
least that's just not what toe is toe is

1286
00:50:33,829 --> 00:50:31,839
toe has a goal there's a trajectory

1287
00:50:36,150 --> 00:50:33,839
that's trying to be hit with virtually

1288
00:50:38,309 --> 00:50:36,160
every episode it's about explicating

1289
00:50:43,510 --> 00:50:38,319
toes and learning them deeply

1290
00:50:46,470 --> 00:50:44,950
theories like math and physics like

1291
00:50:48,630 --> 00:50:46,480
symmetry but the universe seems to be

1292
00:50:51,069 --> 00:50:48,640
asymmetric handedness chirality time

1293
00:50:53,750 --> 00:50:51,079
entropy matter

1294
00:50:55,750 --> 00:50:53,760
anti-dark y though are there any

1295
00:50:57,030 --> 00:50:55,760
insights from theory or experiment can

1296
00:50:59,750 --> 00:50:57,040
there be

1297
00:51:01,670 --> 00:50:59,760
there are there are elementary results

1298
00:51:03,510 --> 00:51:01,680
in mathematics that imply that at least

1299
00:51:06,069 --> 00:51:03,520
to myself that certain

1300
00:51:07,829 --> 00:51:06,079
physics problems aren't problems so for

1301
00:51:09,910 --> 00:51:07,839
example the hierarchy problem i don't

1302
00:51:12,390 --> 00:51:09,920
see it as being an issue the fact that

1303
00:51:15,190 --> 00:51:12,400
gravity is quote-unquote more weak than

1304
00:51:17,030 --> 00:51:15,200
and drastically more so than the

1305
00:51:18,950 --> 00:51:17,040
the strong force the weak force and so

1306
00:51:20,230 --> 00:51:18,960
on

1307
00:51:21,589 --> 00:51:20,240
because you can have symmetry in a

1308
00:51:23,349 --> 00:51:21,599
certain respect and then break it with

1309
00:51:26,790 --> 00:51:23,359
another there's a frobenius theorem

1310
00:51:28,230 --> 00:51:26,800
about that i can go into that in another

1311
00:51:29,270 --> 00:51:28,240
in another podcast if someone's

1312
00:51:31,349 --> 00:51:29,280
interested

1313
00:51:33,030 --> 00:51:31,359
and then there are also

1314
00:51:35,270 --> 00:51:33,040
there are also problems where you have a

1315
00:51:37,750 --> 00:51:35,280
symmetry in the initial conditions and

1316
00:51:40,150 --> 00:51:37,760
even a seeming symmetry in the

1317
00:51:42,069 --> 00:51:40,160
problem that can lead to an asymmetric

1318
00:51:43,829 --> 00:51:42,079
solution so for example let's say you

1319
00:51:45,270 --> 00:51:43,839
have an equilateral triangle so you

1320
00:51:47,430 --> 00:51:45,280
think well what's more

1321
00:51:49,430 --> 00:51:47,440
symmetric than an equilateral triangle

1322
00:51:51,829 --> 00:51:49,440
and then i say well how do you populate

1323
00:51:55,270 --> 00:51:51,839
that with three spheres

1324
00:51:57,430 --> 00:51:55,280
such that you maximize the total area of

1325
00:51:59,589 --> 00:51:57,440
those spheres

1326
00:52:01,910 --> 00:51:59,599
so that what sorry spheres is in circles

1327
00:52:03,910 --> 00:52:01,920
i mean so you place a circle into an

1328
00:52:05,670 --> 00:52:03,920
equilateral triangle and you can make it

1329
00:52:07,510 --> 00:52:05,680
larger and then you place another one

1330
00:52:09,589 --> 00:52:07,520
but you're not allowed to overlap and

1331
00:52:11,750 --> 00:52:09,599
then you think well the solution should

1332
00:52:13,829 --> 00:52:11,760
look symmetric because the initial

1333
00:52:15,670 --> 00:52:13,839
conditions are symmetric a circle is

1334
00:52:17,030 --> 00:52:15,680
certainly symmetric the way that the

1335
00:52:19,349 --> 00:52:17,040
problem is stated doesn't seem to have

1336
00:52:21,270 --> 00:52:19,359
any asymmetry involved however the

1337
00:52:23,109 --> 00:52:21,280
solution looks like an equilateral

1338
00:52:25,349 --> 00:52:23,119
triangle with the circle

1339
00:52:27,030 --> 00:52:25,359
toward the top i'll see if i can

1340
00:52:29,589 --> 00:52:27,040
put an image and then two circles at the

1341
00:52:32,309 --> 00:52:29,599
bottom it's an asymmetric solution

1342
00:52:34,870 --> 00:52:32,319
so it's not clear to me that what's

1343
00:52:37,510 --> 00:52:34,880
required is always symmetry breaking it

1344
00:52:42,230 --> 00:52:37,520
could just be that a symmetrically posed

1345
00:52:46,549 --> 00:52:44,390
ghost i love your podcast but you don't

1346
00:52:48,470 --> 00:52:46,559
ever seem to believe if you had the

1347
00:52:50,230 --> 00:52:48,480
opportunity to see something paranormal

1348
00:52:52,069 --> 00:52:50,240
would you take it

1349
00:52:54,150 --> 00:52:52,079
i would say that i'm undecided right now

1350
00:52:54,950 --> 00:52:54,160
but i'm curious and i wouldn't say that

1351
00:52:56,390 --> 00:52:54,960
that's

1352
00:52:58,470 --> 00:52:56,400
that i disbelieve

1353
00:53:00,790 --> 00:52:58,480
i don't think that's the same as being

1354
00:53:04,069 --> 00:53:00,800
in a state of disbelief or disbelieving

1355
00:53:06,069 --> 00:53:04,079
and the answer just is no not right now

1356
00:53:09,349 --> 00:53:06,079
pancaj

1357
00:53:12,390 --> 00:53:09,359
tennija says has anyone studied the

1358
00:53:14,150 --> 00:53:12,400
properties of matter motion by imagining

1359
00:53:16,230 --> 00:53:14,160
all moments of the past in the present

1360
00:53:18,470 --> 00:53:16,240
concurrently extra dimensional view

1361
00:53:21,589 --> 00:53:18,480
question mark where it appears as a wave

1362
00:53:22,710 --> 00:53:21,599
of solid colors in a time-lapse image

1363
00:53:25,190 --> 00:53:22,720
seems like

1364
00:53:27,190 --> 00:53:25,200
it would have a wave property well okay

1365
00:53:28,470 --> 00:53:27,200
i'm unclear as to

1366
00:53:30,150 --> 00:53:28,480
i'm sorry

1367
00:53:31,349 --> 00:53:30,160
pancash i'm unclear as to what the

1368
00:53:33,990 --> 00:53:31,359
question is

1369
00:53:35,589 --> 00:53:34,000
is stating though if what you

1370
00:53:37,990 --> 00:53:35,599
want is the past and the presence and so

1371
00:53:39,990 --> 00:53:38,000
on so on concurrently the block universe

1372
00:53:41,829 --> 00:53:40,000
is something you can look up

1373
00:53:43,349 --> 00:53:41,839
will the electron

1374
00:53:45,030 --> 00:53:43,359
electrician says

1375
00:53:47,270 --> 00:53:45,040
now that you've talking with pius

1376
00:53:49,030 --> 00:53:47,280
salvator pius i'll leave a thumbnail

1377
00:53:50,309 --> 00:53:49,040
here if you're interested

1378
00:53:52,309 --> 00:53:50,319
and he said that

1379
00:53:53,990 --> 00:53:52,319
essentially next level physics is only

1380
00:53:56,470 --> 00:53:54,000
possible with plasma would you be

1381
00:53:58,950 --> 00:53:56,480
willing to do a deep dive on plasma in

1382
00:54:00,630 --> 00:53:58,960
particular with an interview with

1383
00:54:04,549 --> 00:54:00,640
montgomery childs of the sapphire

1384
00:54:08,309 --> 00:54:06,470
i will be talking to someone from the

1385
00:54:10,549 --> 00:54:08,319
sapphire project at some point i

1386
00:54:11,990 --> 00:54:10,559
contacted them and

1387
00:54:14,150 --> 00:54:12,000
that was around the time when i spoke to

1388
00:54:15,829 --> 00:54:14,160
ross colthardt and whenever they're

1389
00:54:16,630 --> 00:54:15,839
ready

1390
00:54:18,309 --> 00:54:16,640
for

1391
00:54:20,470 --> 00:54:18,319
the announcement of something new

1392
00:54:23,430 --> 00:54:20,480
they'll come onto the toe podcast that's

1393
00:54:24,630 --> 00:54:23,440
what they said

1394
00:54:27,910 --> 00:54:24,640
olivier

1395
00:54:30,630 --> 00:54:27,920
gothels says dear curt i love

1396
00:54:34,470 --> 00:54:30,640
your honest intent and the expressed

1397
00:54:35,990 --> 00:54:34,480
content of your channel my bold question

1398
00:54:37,829 --> 00:54:36,000
are you able and willing to invite

1399
00:54:39,750 --> 00:54:37,839
jordan peterson and bernardo castro for

1400
00:54:41,349 --> 00:54:39,760
a series of talks on your channel

1401
00:54:43,030 --> 00:54:41,359
i will say

1402
00:54:46,069 --> 00:54:43,040
olivier

1403
00:54:50,790 --> 00:54:48,150
2024.

1404
00:54:53,109 --> 00:54:50,800
there are plenty of

1405
00:54:55,430 --> 00:54:53,119
plans for the tow channel in the latter

1406
00:54:57,430 --> 00:54:55,440
half of 2022 and

1407
00:54:59,510 --> 00:54:57,440
and certainly in 2023

1408
00:55:00,950 --> 00:54:59,520
plenty that's exciting

1409
00:55:02,870 --> 00:55:00,960
ho cha says any chance with jordan

1410
00:55:04,390 --> 00:55:02,880
peterson on your podcast and so on well

1411
00:55:05,829 --> 00:55:04,400
he interest he interviewed me

1412
00:55:07,829 --> 00:55:05,839
interestingly enough i didn't interview

1413
00:55:11,270 --> 00:55:07,839
him but i'll leave a link to that again

1414
00:55:15,510 --> 00:55:13,030
alvaro says

1415
00:55:18,230 --> 00:55:15,520
will christopher coke be on the show

1416
00:55:20,549 --> 00:55:18,240
someday yes

1417
00:55:24,790 --> 00:55:20,559
abnormal archive says when is nima

1418
00:55:26,630 --> 00:55:24,800
arkani hamad coming on i'm working on it

1419
00:55:27,990 --> 00:55:26,640
rakuta mela says kurt i was thinking

1420
00:55:29,589 --> 00:55:28,000
that you could try to get in touch with

1421
00:55:31,910 --> 00:55:29,599
lee smolin and carlo rovelli for your

1422
00:55:34,150 --> 00:55:31,920
next interviews is this feasible carlo's

1423
00:55:36,230 --> 00:55:34,160
done already lee is someone i would like

1424
00:55:40,710 --> 00:55:36,240
to do but his health isn't the best

1425
00:55:45,030 --> 00:55:43,109
skim sen says would you consider

1426
00:55:46,829 --> 00:55:45,040
facilitating a debate between stephen

1427
00:55:49,430 --> 00:55:46,839
pinker and bernardo

1428
00:55:51,510 --> 00:55:49,440
castro regarding rationality and

1429
00:55:53,990 --> 00:55:51,520
intuition so i'm working on that i

1430
00:55:57,109 --> 00:55:54,000
there's plenty to announce

1431
00:56:02,470 --> 00:55:57,119
ron devis says kurt have you ever

1432
00:56:04,870 --> 00:56:03,829
no i

1433
00:56:07,270 --> 00:56:04,880
i don't

1434
00:56:09,910 --> 00:56:07,280
i haven't tonight i would not like to at

1435
00:56:11,270 --> 00:56:09,920
least not right now john doe says

1436
00:56:12,069 --> 00:56:11,280
have you asked

1437
00:56:13,910 --> 00:56:12,079
well

1438
00:56:15,109 --> 00:56:13,920
john doe says have you asked paul

1439
00:56:16,870 --> 00:56:15,119
stamets

1440
00:56:19,030 --> 00:56:16,880
to join you on a show he's one of my

1441
00:56:21,990 --> 00:56:19,040
favorite people along with shogun

1442
00:56:24,470 --> 00:56:22,000
alexander shulgin we'll see paul i mean

1443
00:56:26,390 --> 00:56:24,480
sorry we'll see john

1444
00:56:28,630 --> 00:56:26,400
michael manley says kurt are you

1445
00:56:31,190 --> 00:56:28,640
familiar with the work of david bentley

1446
00:56:33,750 --> 00:56:31,200
hart particularly his works on the

1447
00:56:36,789 --> 00:56:33,760
experience of god being consciousness

1448
00:56:41,270 --> 00:56:38,150
i emailed

1449
00:56:43,109 --> 00:56:41,280
david a few years ago and he said yes he

1450
00:56:44,870 --> 00:56:43,119
would like to come on the podcast i

1451
00:56:47,430 --> 00:56:44,880
don't think it was named toe back then

1452
00:56:48,309 --> 00:56:47,440
that's how long ago it was i emailed

1453
00:56:50,069 --> 00:56:48,319
david

1454
00:56:51,829 --> 00:56:50,079
when the podcast was in its infancy and

1455
00:56:54,390 --> 00:56:51,839
he responded positively

1456
00:56:55,430 --> 00:56:54,400
i haven't had the opportunity to peruse

1457
00:56:57,750 --> 00:56:55,440
his

1458
00:56:59,750 --> 00:56:57,760
ubra let's say yet

1459
00:57:01,510 --> 00:56:59,760
though i would like to when i emailed

1460
00:57:03,589 --> 00:57:01,520
him i don't even think the podcast was

1461
00:57:05,109 --> 00:57:03,599
called toe that's so that's how long ago

1462
00:57:06,870 --> 00:57:05,119
it was

1463
00:57:09,030 --> 00:57:06,880
t soul x says

1464
00:57:12,150 --> 00:57:09,040
kurt what are your thoughts on nasim

1465
00:57:14,710 --> 00:57:12,160
hara means

1466
00:57:16,390 --> 00:57:14,720
theory from the resonance foundation any

1467
00:57:18,470 --> 00:57:16,400
chance he would be a guest so i have

1468
00:57:20,549 --> 00:57:18,480
heard of him many times i need to look

1469
00:57:22,309 --> 00:57:20,559
into his work it will take me many

1470
00:57:24,470 --> 00:57:22,319
months and likely by the end of the year

1471
00:57:26,390 --> 00:57:24,480
i'll be able to bundle him with

1472
00:57:27,670 --> 00:57:26,400
several other guests like clee irwin

1473
00:57:29,910 --> 00:57:27,680
i'll see if i can get to the schedule

1474
00:57:31,190 --> 00:57:29,920
for the tow podcast later in this ama by

1475
00:57:33,990 --> 00:57:31,200
the way i

1476
00:57:36,549 --> 00:57:34,000
i release the schedule on the

1477
00:57:38,470 --> 00:57:36,559
on the patreon if you're interested

1478
00:57:41,670 --> 00:57:38,480
electric wheel says can you get bob

1479
00:57:44,150 --> 00:57:41,680
lazar on the podcast we will see

1480
00:57:46,630 --> 00:57:44,160
electric wheels by the way notice that

1481
00:57:48,390 --> 00:57:46,640
this is an entirely eclectic mix the

1482
00:57:49,990 --> 00:57:48,400
people that were mentioned previously in

1483
00:57:51,589 --> 00:57:50,000
the let's say the past three minutes or

1484
00:57:53,109 --> 00:57:51,599
four minutes

1485
00:57:56,309 --> 00:57:53,119
some people think it's strange to have

1486
00:57:59,670 --> 00:57:56,319
chomsky on the same channel as x or or

1487
00:58:01,750 --> 00:57:59,680
leo gura with stuart hammer off or

1488
00:58:04,390 --> 00:58:01,760
aliens mixing with the fields medalists

1489
00:58:05,670 --> 00:58:04,400
like richard borchard's

1490
00:58:09,670 --> 00:58:05,680
i

1491
00:58:11,270 --> 00:58:09,680
may be a convergence

1492
00:58:15,109 --> 00:58:11,280
and i don't know how to find such a

1493
00:58:16,630 --> 00:58:15,119
convergence unless i'm guided by my

1494
00:58:18,789 --> 00:58:16,640
supra consciousness so i wouldn't even

1495
00:58:20,390 --> 00:58:18,799
say subconsciousness it's something like

1496
00:58:23,270 --> 00:58:20,400
my intuition

1497
00:58:25,670 --> 00:58:23,280
and it seems strange when jung was

1498
00:58:28,230 --> 00:58:25,680
studying god and consciousness and

1499
00:58:30,870 --> 00:58:28,240
psychology those don't belong together

1500
00:58:32,789 --> 00:58:30,880
when leonardo da vinci was

1501
00:58:34,549 --> 00:58:32,799
combining and studying anatomy with

1502
00:58:37,670 --> 00:58:34,559
engineering with art

1503
00:58:39,430 --> 00:58:37,680
and newton by studying alchemy and the

1504
00:58:40,470 --> 00:58:39,440
bible and physics

1505
00:58:42,710 --> 00:58:40,480
yet

1506
00:58:45,910 --> 00:58:42,720
newton's views on there being universal

1507
00:58:46,789 --> 00:58:45,920
laws were precipitated directly

1508
00:58:49,430 --> 00:58:46,799
by the

1509
00:58:51,030 --> 00:58:49,440
by his understanding of the omnipotence

1510
00:58:52,470 --> 00:58:51,040
and the omniscience

1511
00:58:54,390 --> 00:58:52,480
of god

1512
00:58:58,870 --> 00:58:54,400
so

1513
00:59:03,270 --> 00:59:00,470
such a

1514
00:59:05,510 --> 00:59:03,280
avant-garde mix but there's a possible

1515
00:59:08,069 --> 00:59:05,520
point of novel and

1516
00:59:12,069 --> 00:59:08,079
practical confluence that i'm uncertain

1517
00:59:13,910 --> 00:59:12,079
of how to get to unless i am able to

1518
00:59:16,150 --> 00:59:13,920
unearth and explore extensively and

1519
00:59:17,829 --> 00:59:16,160
investigate with the

1520
00:59:19,349 --> 00:59:17,839
instincts that i have so the toll

1521
00:59:21,510 --> 00:59:19,359
podcast is it's strange it's not a

1522
00:59:23,349 --> 00:59:21,520
podcast i mean

1523
00:59:25,270 --> 00:59:23,359
it's it seems like a podcast but i just

1524
00:59:27,349 --> 00:59:25,280
don't know what else to call it it's as

1525
00:59:29,750 --> 00:59:27,359
if the way that i feel it's as if it's

1526
00:59:31,589 --> 00:59:29,760
in the 1900s and one was doing just film

1527
00:59:33,750 --> 00:59:31,599
in the midst of people doing 60 minute

1528
00:59:35,910 --> 00:59:33,760
long and 90 minute long films someone

1529
00:59:37,990 --> 00:59:35,920
started putting out 30 minute long films

1530
00:59:40,150 --> 00:59:38,000
and they had storylines that connected

1531
00:59:41,430 --> 00:59:40,160
when usually films are singular and

1532
00:59:43,190 --> 00:59:41,440
self-contained

1533
00:59:44,950 --> 00:59:43,200
and then you would think well that's not

1534
00:59:47,589 --> 00:59:44,960
how film is done what the heck is going

1535
00:59:49,750 --> 00:59:47,599
on with this

1536
00:59:52,549 --> 00:59:49,760
and then it gets critiqued and evaluated

1537
00:59:54,549 --> 00:59:52,559
as film but you realize only decades and

1538
00:59:57,109 --> 00:59:54,559
decades later what the person was trying

1539
00:59:59,349 --> 00:59:57,119
to do was develop television in the

1540
01:00:00,950 --> 00:59:59,359
early days of film

1541
01:00:02,549 --> 01:00:00,960
but they didn't have the vocabulary to

1542
01:00:03,990 --> 01:00:02,559
call it television they didn't know what

1543
01:00:05,750 --> 01:00:04,000
they were doing they were guided by

1544
01:00:07,589 --> 01:00:05,760
something and

1545
01:00:11,910 --> 01:00:07,599
they

1546
01:00:17,030 --> 01:00:14,309
prevalence of film and because of its

1547
01:00:19,589 --> 01:00:17,040
resemblance to film it gets

1548
01:00:22,789 --> 01:00:19,599
collocated with film and evaluated with

1549
01:00:24,870 --> 01:00:22,799
the same rubric as film when

1550
01:00:27,109 --> 01:00:24,880
when the rubric by which it should be

1551
01:00:28,870 --> 01:00:27,119
evaluated hasn't been invented and the

1552
01:00:30,630 --> 01:00:28,880
filmmaker themselves didn't know what

1553
01:00:33,030 --> 01:00:30,640
they were doing so that's what i imagine

1554
01:00:35,589 --> 01:00:33,040
toe is like i keep reiterating that toe

1555
01:00:38,150 --> 01:00:35,599
is not a podcast in so much as it's a

1556
01:00:40,069 --> 01:00:38,160
project the toe project is what i say

1557
01:00:41,910 --> 01:00:40,079
frequently and that's just because

1558
01:00:43,829 --> 01:00:41,920
that's the best word that i have for it

1559
01:00:46,309 --> 01:00:43,839
the podcast is the closest

1560
01:00:48,309 --> 01:00:46,319
form but i'm unsure if that's

1561
01:00:49,990 --> 01:00:48,319
if that's what toe is toe is you can

1562
01:00:52,470 --> 01:00:50,000
think of it as groping in the dark and

1563
01:00:54,549 --> 01:00:52,480
trying to understand some object before

1564
01:00:56,549 --> 01:00:54,559
light shines on it by the way there's

1565
01:00:59,190 --> 01:00:56,559
maybe some meaningful relationship

1566
01:01:01,349 --> 01:00:59,200
between the physical act of looking and

1567
01:01:03,109 --> 01:01:01,359
existence in and of itself that sounds

1568
01:01:05,829 --> 01:01:03,119
strange because we

1569
01:01:08,789 --> 01:01:05,839
have a society that is based in

1570
01:01:11,030 --> 01:01:08,799
materialism but the first step at least

1571
01:01:12,470 --> 01:01:11,040
for the intuitive types like myself is

1572
01:01:14,950 --> 01:01:12,480
to flounder

1573
01:01:16,630 --> 01:01:14,960
around in the stygian gloom

1574
01:01:18,630 --> 01:01:16,640
and then hope that something

1575
01:01:21,030 --> 01:01:18,640
positive occurs or that some light is

1576
01:01:22,789 --> 01:01:21,040
illuminated and something is felt and

1577
01:01:24,630 --> 01:01:22,799
some model is made

1578
01:01:26,549 --> 01:01:24,640
there's the mars rovers by the way which

1579
01:01:27,589 --> 01:01:26,559
i love the names of because i feel like

1580
01:01:29,270 --> 01:01:27,599
that's

1581
01:01:31,190 --> 01:01:29,280
what the

1582
01:01:33,349 --> 01:01:31,200
the toe channel or the toe project is

1583
01:01:35,349 --> 01:01:33,359
trying to do is follow them it's to

1584
01:01:37,670 --> 01:01:35,359
follow quote-unquote my curiosity

1585
01:01:39,750 --> 01:01:37,680
hopefully guided by my spirit

1586
01:01:43,510 --> 01:01:39,760
and to see what opportunities are

1587
01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:47,829
u-n-h-r-e-m-n-a

1588
01:01:52,069 --> 01:01:49,349
asks

1589
01:01:53,349 --> 01:01:52,079
what is a theo-locution

1590
01:01:56,230 --> 01:01:53,359
okay so

1591
01:01:57,349 --> 01:01:56,240
let's see i wrote this down

1592
01:01:59,510 --> 01:01:57,359
you can

1593
01:02:01,750 --> 01:01:59,520
think of a theolocution as an

1594
01:02:04,150 --> 01:02:01,760
advancement of knowledge rather than a

1595
01:02:05,670 --> 01:02:04,160
destruction which is generally the style

1596
01:02:07,750 --> 01:02:05,680
of debates

1597
01:02:11,430 --> 01:02:07,760
and that a theo locution is couched in

1598
01:02:13,750 --> 01:02:11,440
tenderness and respect so socrates used

1599
01:02:14,950 --> 01:02:13,760
questions and answers to generate new

1600
01:02:17,349 --> 01:02:14,960
knowledge that's called the socratic

1601
01:02:19,589 --> 01:02:17,359
method though he did so privately and if

1602
01:02:21,910 --> 01:02:19,599
it was in public the point of it wasn't

1603
01:02:23,990 --> 01:02:21,920
to do it publicly and he also did it

1604
01:02:25,910 --> 01:02:24,000
sardonically now contrasting this the

1605
01:02:28,630 --> 01:02:25,920
way that i like to think about the

1606
01:02:29,510 --> 01:02:28,640
what a theologian is is the socratic

1607
01:02:30,630 --> 01:02:29,520
method

1608
01:02:35,190 --> 01:02:30,640
plus

1609
01:02:38,870 --> 01:02:35,200
a theo locution if you want to think of

1610
01:02:41,109 --> 01:02:38,880
it as a equation

1611
01:02:42,950 --> 01:02:41,119
so your ancestors danny says are from

1612
01:02:44,870 --> 01:02:42,960
india

1613
01:02:46,950 --> 01:02:44,880
indeed i am from toronto i was born in

1614
01:02:50,069 --> 01:02:46,960
trinidad my parents are from trinidad my

1615
01:02:51,829 --> 01:02:50,079
ancestors say the great great

1616
01:02:55,270 --> 01:02:51,839
great grandparents are from the west

1617
01:02:57,829 --> 01:02:55,280
indies ryan says ah shucks miss the ama

1618
01:03:00,549 --> 01:02:57,839
how can we know how to enter an ama and

1619
01:03:02,950 --> 01:03:00,559
when they come up whether this is my ama

1620
01:03:05,270 --> 01:03:02,960
or an ama with let's say pious salvator

1621
01:03:07,829 --> 01:03:05,280
pious and so on so i announce all of

1622
01:03:10,789 --> 01:03:07,839
what i plan on doing generally

1623
01:03:12,470 --> 01:03:10,799
far in advance on patreon and i give an

1624
01:03:14,870 --> 01:03:12,480
indication as to the direction for the

1625
01:03:17,430 --> 01:03:14,880
next few months regularly this is in

1626
01:03:19,430 --> 01:03:17,440
contrast to a call for questions which

1627
01:03:21,270 --> 01:03:19,440
are all which are generally done openly

1628
01:03:23,670 --> 01:03:21,280
on the youtube page

1629
01:03:26,150 --> 01:03:23,680
so if you want you can

1630
01:03:29,190 --> 01:03:26,160
sign up for the patreon

1631
01:03:30,630 --> 01:03:29,200
just so you know the patreon is the

1632
01:03:32,309 --> 01:03:30,640
virtually the only way that i'm able to

1633
01:03:33,829 --> 01:03:32,319
do this the other way is with the

1634
01:03:35,990 --> 01:03:33,839
sponsors so i'm

1635
01:03:36,950 --> 01:03:36,000
super super grateful for the sponsors

1636
01:03:43,589 --> 01:03:36,960
and for

1637
01:03:45,109 --> 01:03:43,599
out of the kindness generosity

1638
01:03:46,309 --> 01:03:45,119
of their own heart

1639
01:03:47,829 --> 01:03:46,319
when they have

1640
01:03:50,230 --> 01:03:47,839
when there's no

1641
01:03:51,670 --> 01:03:50,240
obligation to do so it's incentive free

1642
01:03:53,430 --> 01:03:51,680
there is one tier

1643
01:03:55,990 --> 01:03:53,440
so when i say it's incentive free that

1644
01:03:57,910 --> 01:03:56,000
is to say you don't get any

1645
01:04:01,190 --> 01:03:57,920
special invites on patreon you don't get

1646
01:04:02,950 --> 01:04:01,200
any special access on patreon

1647
01:04:04,789 --> 01:04:02,960
there is one tier though a meta field

1648
01:04:05,910 --> 01:04:04,799
theorist tier which just opened up about

1649
01:04:08,549 --> 01:04:05,920
a month ago

1650
01:04:10,470 --> 01:04:08,559
where you can speak to myself for about

1651
01:04:11,990 --> 01:04:10,480
an hour or so along with others who are

1652
01:04:14,549 --> 01:04:12,000
on the group call it's limited to about

1653
01:04:16,470 --> 01:04:14,559
six people and people seem to have

1654
01:04:18,390 --> 01:04:16,480
enjoyed it for the previous one for an

1655
01:04:19,910 --> 01:04:18,400
additional benefit that i didn't foresee

1656
01:04:21,670 --> 01:04:19,920
which is networking

1657
01:04:23,510 --> 01:04:21,680
someone recently wanted some metal

1658
01:04:25,990 --> 01:04:23,520
printing done and someone else there was

1659
01:04:28,470 --> 01:04:26,000
in that field and someone wanted help

1660
01:04:31,750 --> 01:04:28,480
getting his toe more known and someone

1661
01:04:33,670 --> 01:04:31,760
said that they knew how to

1662
01:04:35,270 --> 01:04:33,680
pair silicon valley investors up with

1663
01:04:37,430 --> 01:04:35,280
people who are interested in having

1664
01:04:38,950 --> 01:04:37,440
their toe or sorry having some personal

1665
01:04:40,870 --> 01:04:38,960
intellectual endeavor

1666
01:04:42,950 --> 01:04:40,880
conducted there's someone who i think

1667
01:04:44,150 --> 01:04:42,960
about

1668
01:04:45,510 --> 01:04:44,160
every once in a while his name is

1669
01:04:47,430 --> 01:04:45,520
voltaire i don't think i've ever

1670
01:04:50,230 --> 01:04:47,440
mentioned him on the podcast and

1671
01:04:52,470 --> 01:04:50,240
voltaire had a phrase where he said that

1672
01:04:53,990 --> 01:04:52,480
he has made himself dip he's made

1673
01:04:55,589 --> 01:04:54,000
himself dependent in order to become

1674
01:04:57,829 --> 01:04:55,599
independent and i feel like that's a

1675
01:04:59,670 --> 01:04:57,839
great way of summarizing what patreon is

1676
01:05:02,630 --> 01:04:59,680
the reason i'm mentioning it here is

1677
01:05:04,549 --> 01:05:02,640
because many people who are on the

1678
01:05:06,230 --> 01:05:04,559
who are patrons have said they would

1679
01:05:08,390 --> 01:05:06,240
never have known about it had i not

1680
01:05:09,750 --> 01:05:08,400
mentioned it and i remember saying i

1681
01:05:11,349 --> 01:05:09,760
mentioned in virtually every episode

1682
01:05:13,029 --> 01:05:11,359
they said oh i just i've listened to you

1683
01:05:15,510 --> 01:05:13,039
for a year and i haven't heard it until

1684
01:05:18,069 --> 01:05:15,520
just yesterday well that's because many

1685
01:05:20,309 --> 01:05:18,079
people skip the intros so i'm

1686
01:05:22,390 --> 01:05:20,319
i'm deeply grateful i view it like

1687
01:05:24,309 --> 01:05:22,400
busking it's a shameful plug

1688
01:05:26,069 --> 01:05:24,319
you know people say this is a shameless

1689
01:05:27,270 --> 01:05:26,079
plug and so on i feel some shame it's

1690
01:05:29,430 --> 01:05:27,280
embarrassing

1691
01:05:30,470 --> 01:05:29,440
though i tend to view it like busking

1692
01:05:32,710 --> 01:05:30,480
where the

1693
01:05:34,549 --> 01:05:32,720
podcast is is able to be enjoyed

1694
01:05:36,470 --> 01:05:34,559
entirely for free

1695
01:05:38,950 --> 01:05:36,480
like a musical performance or a magic

1696
01:05:41,270 --> 01:05:38,960
trick except it's a podcast in this case

1697
01:05:44,150 --> 01:05:41,280
and then you choose to pay in fact it's

1698
01:05:45,750 --> 01:05:44,160
even more anonymous than busking because

1699
01:05:47,190 --> 01:05:45,760
you don't have the added social pressure

1700
01:05:48,950 --> 01:05:47,200
of people around you and then the end

1701
01:05:51,029 --> 01:05:48,960
where everyone claps and you have to

1702
01:05:53,829 --> 01:05:51,039
awkwardly walk away there's no

1703
01:05:56,630 --> 01:05:53,839
obligation even here this comes with a

1704
01:05:59,829 --> 01:05:56,640
time stamp somewhere where you can skip

1705
01:06:01,109 --> 01:05:59,839
this whole spiel because

1706
01:06:03,109 --> 01:06:01,119
i feel like the

1707
01:06:05,270 --> 01:06:03,119
firstly i don't like to be talked to in

1708
01:06:07,510 --> 01:06:05,280
this manner when it comes to someone

1709
01:06:09,510 --> 01:06:07,520
advertising the ways to support them or

1710
01:06:12,150 --> 01:06:09,520
sponsors and so on and all of these come

1711
01:06:14,789 --> 01:06:12,160
with a time stamp somewhere here or here

1712
01:06:17,029 --> 01:06:14,799
where they say you can skip this

1713
01:06:20,309 --> 01:06:17,039
introduction

1714
01:06:22,150 --> 01:06:20,319
or sponsor message because

1715
01:06:25,349 --> 01:06:22,160
well i don't want to force or trick

1716
01:06:27,750 --> 01:06:25,359
anyone into listening to what they

1717
01:06:29,029 --> 01:06:27,760
didn't intend to listen to and what that

1718
01:06:30,630 --> 01:06:29,039
does is it

1719
01:06:32,390 --> 01:06:30,640
radically reduces the amount that a

1720
01:06:35,109 --> 01:06:32,400
sponsor is willing to pay

1721
01:06:36,549 --> 01:06:35,119
and the amount that people would sign up

1722
01:06:37,750 --> 01:06:36,559
to patreon because like i mentioned

1723
01:06:39,430 --> 01:06:37,760
someone has

1724
01:06:41,589 --> 01:06:39,440
watched for a year and then had no idea

1725
01:06:43,750 --> 01:06:41,599
that i even had a patreon but i feel

1726
01:06:44,829 --> 01:06:43,760
like in the long run the trust that's

1727
01:06:48,150 --> 01:06:44,839
engendered

1728
01:06:49,910 --> 01:06:48,160
by putting up a timestamp or a method

1729
01:06:51,190 --> 01:06:49,920
for you to click out of this such that

1730
01:06:52,630 --> 01:06:51,200
you don't feel manipulated into

1731
01:06:54,069 --> 01:06:52,640
listening to something you didn't want

1732
01:06:57,910 --> 01:06:54,079
to

1733
01:07:00,069 --> 01:06:57,920
relationship with

1734
01:07:01,910 --> 01:07:00,079
with you with the people who are

1735
01:07:04,549 --> 01:07:01,920
watching with the patrons and with the

1736
01:07:06,549 --> 01:07:04,559
sponsors so in the short run it's not

1737
01:07:08,390 --> 01:07:06,559
it's not terribly great monetarily but

1738
01:07:10,549 --> 01:07:08,400
hopefully in the long run it is and my

1739
01:07:13,750 --> 01:07:10,559
wife my wife is extremely grateful for

1740
01:07:15,829 --> 01:07:13,760
all the support she is more grateful in

1741
01:07:17,829 --> 01:07:15,839
many ways than i am and that's saying

1742
01:07:20,230 --> 01:07:17,839
plenty so if you're

1743
01:07:22,069 --> 01:07:20,240
supporting or not just by watching thank

1744
01:07:24,630 --> 01:07:22,079
you i i appreciate your eyes i

1745
01:07:26,789 --> 01:07:24,640
appreciate whatever it's

1746
01:07:30,230 --> 01:07:26,799
it's i'm in an extremely blessed

1747
01:07:31,829 --> 01:07:30,240
position so thank you as for the sponsor

1748
01:07:33,510 --> 01:07:31,839
today's sponsor is brilliant and

1749
01:07:35,589 --> 01:07:33,520
brilliant like i mentioned before

1750
01:07:36,710 --> 01:07:35,599
brilliance is a place that you can go to

1751
01:07:38,789 --> 01:07:36,720
to view

1752
01:07:42,230 --> 01:07:38,799
interactive learning experiences on

1753
01:07:43,910 --> 01:07:42,240
statistics and mathematics and physics

1754
01:07:46,230 --> 01:07:43,920
you can learn about group theory you can

1755
01:07:49,829 --> 01:07:46,240
learn about entropy i

1756
01:07:53,109 --> 01:07:49,839
over the winter break the 2021 december

1757
01:07:55,029 --> 01:07:53,119
2022 january was studying about entropy

1758
01:07:56,470 --> 01:07:55,039
because i wanted to learn why is it that

1759
01:07:58,390 --> 01:07:56,480
the formula for entropy is written in

1760
01:08:00,950 --> 01:07:58,400
this manner and

1761
01:08:04,870 --> 01:08:00,960
it becomes extremely clear extremely

1762
01:08:07,910 --> 01:08:04,880
lucid and perspicuous why s equals lawn

1763
01:08:11,029 --> 01:08:07,920
or log of the amount of states is an

1764
01:08:13,430 --> 01:08:11,039
extremely natural way of

1765
01:08:15,510 --> 01:08:13,440
categorizing the information held in a

1766
01:08:17,510 --> 01:08:15,520
system and that it would be strange to

1767
01:08:19,829 --> 01:08:17,520
define it in any other manner

1768
01:08:21,189 --> 01:08:19,839
that comes from brilliant that my

1769
01:08:22,470 --> 01:08:21,199
knowledge of that comes from brilliance

1770
01:08:24,070 --> 01:08:22,480
and that's going to help me when i

1771
01:08:27,269 --> 01:08:24,080
eventually get to speak to chiara

1772
01:08:28,789 --> 01:08:27,279
marletto or david deutsch on their

1773
01:08:31,510 --> 01:08:28,799
constructor theory so visit

1774
01:08:33,430 --> 01:08:31,520
brilliant.org toe to get 20 off your

1775
01:08:36,470 --> 01:08:33,440
annual subscription

1776
01:08:38,550 --> 01:08:36,480
moses patunikos says do you prefer

1777
01:08:39,430 --> 01:08:38,560
burger king to kentucky

1778
01:08:47,269 --> 01:08:39,440
i

1779
01:08:49,990 --> 01:08:47,279
taste

1780
01:08:56,870 --> 01:08:50,000
dustin hutchinson says if you were me

1781
01:09:00,229 --> 01:08:58,870
well i think i would ask that question

1782
01:09:01,269 --> 01:09:00,239
dustin

1783
01:09:03,990 --> 01:09:01,279
and

1784
01:09:05,110 --> 01:09:04,000
that perhaps keeps in the theme of your

1785
01:09:08,149 --> 01:09:05,120
image

1786
01:09:10,229 --> 01:09:08,159
of the picture of a snake eating itself

1787
01:09:12,390 --> 01:09:10,239
jim morrison says how do you have under

1788
01:09:14,630 --> 01:09:12,400
5 000 twitter followers but

1789
01:09:15,990 --> 01:09:14,640
over 100 000 youtube subscribers can you

1790
01:09:19,430 --> 01:09:16,000
make it less obvious that you've

1791
01:09:22,149 --> 01:09:19,440
purchased subscribers so none of

1792
01:09:26,070 --> 01:09:22,159
twitter followers were purchased none of

1793
01:09:27,110 --> 01:09:26,080
the youtube subscribers were purchased i

1794
01:09:32,789 --> 01:09:27,120
don't

1795
01:09:34,870 --> 01:09:32,799
primarily requests for information or

1796
01:09:36,950 --> 01:09:34,880
promotion for toe

1797
01:09:39,110 --> 01:09:36,960
i'm not terribly interesting on twitter

1798
01:09:41,910 --> 01:09:39,120
if you want to follow with that ringing

1799
01:09:42,950 --> 01:09:41,920
endorsement then it's at toe with kurt

1800
01:09:46,870 --> 01:09:42,960
and you can also see that there's

1801
01:09:48,789 --> 01:09:46,880
someone like arvin ash who has i think

1802
01:09:50,550 --> 01:09:48,799
over six hundred thousand subscribers

1803
01:09:52,309 --> 01:09:50,560
and then less than on youtube and then

1804
01:09:54,310 --> 01:09:52,319
less than ten thousand on twitter grant

1805
01:09:56,390 --> 01:09:54,320
sanderson has millions and millions of

1806
01:09:59,270 --> 01:09:56,400
youtube subscribers but

1807
01:10:00,070 --> 01:09:59,280
far less a tenth less on twitter this is

1808
01:10:02,790 --> 01:10:00,080
just

1809
01:10:04,950 --> 01:10:02,800
par for the course if your main bread

1810
01:10:07,270 --> 01:10:04,960
and butter is youtube

1811
01:10:09,590 --> 01:10:07,280
i i don't imagine why your twitter

1812
01:10:12,070 --> 01:10:09,600
should be anywhere comparable

1813
01:10:13,350 --> 01:10:12,080
ah and many others have thought have

1814
01:10:15,430 --> 01:10:13,360
asked what are your thoughts on extra

1815
01:10:17,590 --> 01:10:15,440
dimensions

1816
01:10:19,030 --> 01:10:17,600
so i'm interested in

1817
01:10:22,070 --> 01:10:19,040
in

1818
01:10:23,910 --> 01:10:22,080
about higher dimensions and then

1819
01:10:25,590 --> 01:10:23,920
compactifying it reducing it to the four

1820
01:10:27,270 --> 01:10:25,600
that we see in order to explain

1821
01:10:28,550 --> 01:10:27,280
observations i think it's much more

1822
01:10:30,790 --> 01:10:28,560
interesting to start with a lower

1823
01:10:32,470 --> 01:10:30,800
dimensional space and then build up to a

1824
01:10:35,110 --> 01:10:32,480
four-dimensional space

1825
01:10:37,430 --> 01:10:35,120
holography is one method by the way

1826
01:10:39,189 --> 01:10:37,440
because you have at least one dimension

1827
01:10:40,950 --> 01:10:39,199
down at a boundary

1828
01:10:42,550 --> 01:10:40,960
and notice i said that i find it

1829
01:10:44,390 --> 01:10:42,560
interesting and interesting is not a

1830
01:10:46,630 --> 01:10:44,400
synonym for

1831
01:10:47,830 --> 01:10:46,640
for correctness it's just a subjective

1832
01:10:50,149 --> 01:10:47,840
guide that

1833
01:10:51,510 --> 01:10:50,159
occasionally leads you to a place of

1834
01:10:53,830 --> 01:10:51,520
importance

1835
01:10:55,270 --> 01:10:53,840
once explored rigorously and then seeing

1836
01:10:56,950 --> 01:10:55,280
if it has any connections to what we

1837
01:10:59,110 --> 01:10:56,960
eventually think of as a

1838
01:11:01,669 --> 01:10:59,120
correct path that's physics and math or

1839
01:11:03,350 --> 01:11:01,679
pure math in a nutshell one explores

1840
01:11:04,550 --> 01:11:03,360
purely out of interest

1841
01:11:07,350 --> 01:11:04,560
and then

1842
01:11:09,830 --> 01:11:07,360
hopefully later some

1843
01:11:11,750 --> 01:11:09,840
future mathematician or future physicist

1844
01:11:13,350 --> 01:11:11,760
will find use in it this happens so

1845
01:11:15,590 --> 01:11:13,360
often that it's

1846
01:11:17,430 --> 01:11:15,600
difficult to find exceptions to it rock

1847
01:11:21,590 --> 01:11:17,440
thompson says with regard to your

1848
01:11:25,990 --> 01:11:23,750
luis elisando do you think

1849
01:11:29,030 --> 01:11:26,000
it's more of what he has seen and not

1850
01:11:30,229 --> 01:11:29,040
able to speak fully open about it

1851
01:11:32,149 --> 01:11:30,239
so

1852
01:11:34,550 --> 01:11:32,159
rock i don't understand the question

1853
01:11:36,229 --> 01:11:34,560
unfortunately and i

1854
01:11:37,669 --> 01:11:36,239
i do think he's seen plenty that he

1855
01:11:40,950 --> 01:11:37,679
can't talk about if that's what you're

1856
01:11:44,229 --> 01:11:40,960
referring to

1857
01:11:47,270 --> 01:11:44,239
hd i'm genuinely curious why it's

1858
01:11:49,669 --> 01:11:47,280
why uaps accelerate so fast and why it's

1859
01:11:51,669 --> 01:11:49,679
not followed by a sonic boom so i don't

1860
01:11:53,189 --> 01:11:51,679
know as well that's

1861
01:11:55,189 --> 01:11:53,199
one of the mysteries

1862
01:11:58,149 --> 01:11:55,199
it may be a manipulation of space-time

1863
01:11:59,590 --> 01:11:58,159
or plasma or some other atypical effect

1864
01:12:02,870 --> 01:11:59,600
i'm unsure

1865
01:12:04,310 --> 01:12:02,880
alexandra gagne says art of endless he's

1866
01:12:06,790 --> 01:12:04,320
an architect right now that's a

1867
01:12:09,189 --> 01:12:06,800
reference to when i say or when i have

1868
01:12:11,750 --> 01:12:09,199
said

1869
01:12:13,510 --> 01:12:11,760
type in art vandaly in the beginning of

1870
01:12:15,830 --> 01:12:13,520
one of the episodes and it's a seinfeld

1871
01:12:16,790 --> 01:12:15,840
reference scott hernandez says kurt i'm

1872
01:12:18,070 --> 01:12:16,800
wondering

1873
01:12:20,870 --> 01:12:18,080
i hope you're not offended by this

1874
01:12:23,270 --> 01:12:20,880
question are you on the spectrum

1875
01:12:25,590 --> 01:12:23,280
and and you strike me as someone who

1876
01:12:27,430 --> 01:12:25,600
might be i am glad to see your show is

1877
01:12:29,110 --> 01:12:27,440
doing well i wish you

1878
01:12:31,669 --> 01:12:29,120
success

1879
01:12:33,350 --> 01:12:31,679
so technically scott everyone is on the

1880
01:12:36,070 --> 01:12:33,360
spectrum though i'm not

1881
01:12:39,030 --> 01:12:36,080
diagnosed with even a scintilla of

1882
01:12:41,590 --> 01:12:39,040
asperger's or autism or whatever is

1883
01:12:44,070 --> 01:12:41,600
close to that i do have adhd to an

1884
01:12:44,950 --> 01:12:44,080
unbelievable degree that's certainly

1885
01:12:46,709 --> 01:12:44,960
true

1886
01:12:49,350 --> 01:12:46,719
if my

1887
01:12:51,030 --> 01:12:49,360
style of speech or delivery is staccato

1888
01:12:52,550 --> 01:12:51,040
it's generally because i

1889
01:12:54,229 --> 01:12:52,560
tend to think

1890
01:12:55,910 --> 01:12:54,239
extremely carefully about what i'm

1891
01:12:57,590 --> 01:12:55,920
saying and i try to match what i'm

1892
01:13:00,070 --> 01:12:57,600
saying with what's

1893
01:13:03,189 --> 01:13:00,080
intended and i try to

1894
01:13:05,110 --> 01:13:03,199
say it in a new manner

1895
01:13:07,030 --> 01:13:05,120
at least frequently and i try to not

1896
01:13:09,270 --> 01:13:07,040
repeat what other people have said and i

1897
01:13:11,189 --> 01:13:09,280
try to determine if what i'm saying is

1898
01:13:12,149 --> 01:13:11,199
someone else's speech or someone else's

1899
01:13:14,310 --> 01:13:12,159
thoughts

1900
01:13:16,310 --> 01:13:14,320
rather than my own so it's it's an

1901
01:13:18,390 --> 01:13:16,320
extremely difficult

1902
01:13:19,990 --> 01:13:18,400
process to

1903
01:13:23,110 --> 01:13:20,000
to extemporize

1904
01:13:25,189 --> 01:13:23,120
and also keep in mind that i'm severely

1905
01:13:27,270 --> 01:13:25,199
nervous when doing podcasts

1906
01:13:29,590 --> 01:13:27,280
don't mistake the

1907
01:13:33,189 --> 01:13:29,600
uneasiness and stage fright

1908
01:13:35,669 --> 01:13:33,199
for someone being on the spectrum

1909
01:13:37,430 --> 01:13:35,679
stephen paul king says do you have any

1910
01:13:39,350 --> 01:13:37,440
any thoughts on constructor theory not

1911
01:13:40,950 --> 01:13:39,360
yet

1912
01:13:42,310 --> 01:13:40,960
means of savagery

1913
01:13:44,470 --> 01:13:42,320
kurt have you ever considered getting

1914
01:13:45,669 --> 01:13:44,480
help with your editing

1915
01:13:46,630 --> 01:13:45,679
well

1916
01:13:49,750 --> 01:13:46,640
plenty of people have said that they

1917
01:13:51,350 --> 01:13:49,760
would do it for free but then they don't

1918
01:13:53,270 --> 01:13:51,360
and plenty of people said yeah kurt i'll

1919
01:13:55,510 --> 01:13:53,280
help you with transcribing for free but

1920
01:13:57,910 --> 01:13:55,520
then they don't often volunteers aren't

1921
01:13:59,590 --> 01:13:57,920
the most reliable source right now i'm

1922
01:14:02,070 --> 01:13:59,600
lucky enough to be able to

1923
01:14:04,630 --> 01:14:02,080
afford someone who can do at least the

1924
01:14:06,470 --> 01:14:04,640
preliminary edit and that's due to the

1925
01:14:07,990 --> 01:14:06,480
patrons like i mentioned before it's

1926
01:14:09,590 --> 01:14:08,000
extremely tricky

1927
01:14:11,270 --> 01:14:09,600
to

1928
01:14:13,270 --> 01:14:11,280
get help with the channel in other

1929
01:14:14,870 --> 01:14:13,280
domains because

1930
01:14:16,790 --> 01:14:14,880
what i'm doing is it's not something

1931
01:14:19,270 --> 01:14:16,800
that's been attempted before and it's

1932
01:14:22,149 --> 01:14:19,280
not something that i can state in an

1933
01:14:24,310 --> 01:14:22,159
unblurred manner like in a limped manner

1934
01:14:25,910 --> 01:14:24,320
so for example there's a toe manual

1935
01:14:29,510 --> 01:14:25,920
sorry there's a yes that's right there's

1936
01:14:31,990 --> 01:14:29,520
a tome coming up a manual of all the

1937
01:14:33,990 --> 01:14:32,000
toes and

1938
01:14:36,470 --> 01:14:34,000
i i can't imagine someone helping me

1939
01:14:38,149 --> 01:14:36,480
with that it's extremely difficult

1940
01:14:40,310 --> 01:14:38,159
because toe is a personal quest like i

1941
01:14:42,870 --> 01:14:40,320
mentioned distilling it down to what i

1942
01:14:44,870 --> 01:14:42,880
think is a proper form for someone to be

1943
01:14:46,870 --> 01:14:44,880
able to understand a particular toe each

1944
01:14:48,390 --> 01:14:46,880
toe let's say has a page long dedicated

1945
01:14:49,990 --> 01:14:48,400
to it that's

1946
01:14:52,070 --> 01:14:50,000
not simple and what someone else thinks

1947
01:14:54,310 --> 01:14:52,080
is obvious may not be obvious to me and

1948
01:14:56,149 --> 01:14:54,320
what i think is is clear that it should

1949
01:14:57,830 --> 01:14:56,159
be included as an ingredient in such a

1950
01:15:00,070 --> 01:14:57,840
page may not be clear to someone else

1951
01:15:02,070 --> 01:15:00,080
there's too much back and forth

1952
01:15:05,189 --> 01:15:02,080
there's another project that there are

1953
01:15:06,550 --> 01:15:05,199
two other projects that i have that i

1954
01:15:09,510 --> 01:15:06,560
are about integrating physics and

1955
01:15:12,790 --> 01:15:09,520
consciousness and even ufos but i can't

1956
01:15:14,870 --> 01:15:12,800
announce that currently left blank says

1957
01:15:17,590 --> 01:15:14,880
i wanted to ask if you've taken any

1958
01:15:19,350 --> 01:15:17,600
psychedelics and would you consider dmt

1959
01:15:21,990 --> 01:15:19,360
i would definitely not take any dmt

1960
01:15:24,229 --> 01:15:22,000
anytime in the near or medium

1961
01:15:25,669 --> 01:15:24,239
future raw dog says i watched there will

1962
01:15:27,750 --> 01:15:25,679
be blood for the first time because you

1963
01:15:31,350 --> 01:15:27,760
mentioned it it's a great film what did

1964
01:15:37,189 --> 01:15:33,830
i like the cinematography

1965
01:15:38,550 --> 01:15:37,199
i have a particularly keen eye for shot

1966
01:15:40,550 --> 01:15:38,560
composition

1967
01:15:42,790 --> 01:15:40,560
and a particular taste when it comes to

1968
01:15:45,430 --> 01:15:42,800
that for example i like

1969
01:15:47,590 --> 01:15:45,440
long drawn out shots that are

1970
01:15:49,910 --> 01:15:47,600
meticulously planned

1971
01:15:52,470 --> 01:15:49,920
i like that there was zero of a plot

1972
01:15:53,350 --> 01:15:52,480
line regarding

1973
01:15:56,149 --> 01:15:53,360
love

1974
01:15:58,390 --> 01:15:56,159
or some romantic interest and that's

1975
01:16:00,310 --> 01:15:58,400
extremely extremely rare you'll notice

1976
01:16:03,430 --> 01:16:00,320
that virtually every movie has a

1977
01:16:04,870 --> 01:16:03,440
romantic interest sub line subplot

1978
01:16:06,870 --> 01:16:04,880
i also like the grittiness the

1979
01:16:09,030 --> 01:16:06,880
seriousness i like films that are

1980
01:16:11,669 --> 01:16:09,040
different in some major manner i like

1981
01:16:13,830 --> 01:16:11,679
the writing as well i have a keen ear

1982
01:16:16,470 --> 01:16:13,840
for dialogue that's

1983
01:16:18,390 --> 01:16:16,480
quote-unquote lame or cringe-worthy or

1984
01:16:20,709 --> 01:16:18,400
artificial it stands out to me in the

1985
01:16:22,229 --> 01:16:20,719
same way that a a glitch may stand out

1986
01:16:24,310 --> 01:16:22,239
to someone who

1987
01:16:25,830 --> 01:16:24,320
plays a video game and i've heard many

1988
01:16:27,270 --> 01:16:25,840
video game reviewers say they don't like

1989
01:16:28,790 --> 01:16:27,280
the glitches in

1990
01:16:30,470 --> 01:16:28,800
let's say fallout or some of the

1991
01:16:31,830 --> 01:16:30,480
bethesda titles because it breaks

1992
01:16:34,229 --> 01:16:31,840
chronicle breaks the illusion of the

1993
01:16:35,830 --> 01:16:34,239
game i don't personally get absorbed in

1994
01:16:37,750 --> 01:16:35,840
video games like that enough for it to

1995
01:16:39,510 --> 01:16:37,760
break because i always feel like i know

1996
01:16:41,350 --> 01:16:39,520
that i'm playing a game it's obvious to

1997
01:16:42,950 --> 01:16:41,360
me if there's a glitch well that's just

1998
01:16:45,669 --> 01:16:42,960
par for the course of a video game

1999
01:16:48,229 --> 01:16:45,679
however when there's feeble dialogue in

2000
01:16:49,990 --> 01:16:48,239
a movie i can't help but notice that i

2001
01:16:51,990 --> 01:16:50,000
notice it like this it just stands out

2002
01:16:54,470 --> 01:16:52,000
to me just as much as i imagine a glitch

2003
01:16:55,830 --> 01:16:54,480
in a video game stands out to

2004
01:16:57,910 --> 01:16:55,840
the people who feel like they're

2005
01:16:59,750 --> 01:16:57,920
absorbed in the video game easter beast

2006
01:17:01,270 --> 01:16:59,760
says is there an email address where i

2007
01:17:03,189 --> 01:17:01,280
can ask

2008
01:17:04,229 --> 01:17:03,199
a question about something i experienced

2009
01:17:10,310 --> 01:17:04,239
please

2010
01:17:12,149 --> 01:17:10,320
firstly i don't i i don't know if i can

2011
01:17:14,790 --> 01:17:12,159
handle hearing about other people's

2012
01:17:16,709 --> 01:17:14,800
experiences secondly i don't want to be

2013
01:17:19,430 --> 01:17:16,719
in the possession of special knowledge

2014
01:17:21,110 --> 01:17:19,440
that i can't share i'm not interested in

2015
01:17:23,669 --> 01:17:21,120
classified information i don't want to

2016
01:17:26,390 --> 01:17:23,679
be in a position where i can't speak

2017
01:17:29,510 --> 01:17:26,400
with candor or i may need to be

2018
01:17:31,990 --> 01:17:29,520
i may need to compromise by speaking

2019
01:17:34,709 --> 01:17:32,000
expediently or dissimulating

2020
01:17:37,350 --> 01:17:34,719
and i can't

2021
01:17:39,669 --> 01:17:37,360
handle to be quite frank i can't handle

2022
01:17:41,830 --> 01:17:39,679
when people are discounting at length to

2023
01:17:45,110 --> 01:17:41,840
me about what they've gone through or

2024
01:17:46,790 --> 01:17:45,120
their advice for me and i just use the

2025
01:17:48,630 --> 01:17:46,800
word frank so frank yang has done

2026
01:17:50,790 --> 01:17:48,640
something similar and frank by the way i

2027
01:17:53,669 --> 01:17:50,800
am sorry frank i'm sorry i know you've

2028
01:17:55,110 --> 01:17:53,679
sent me a quite lengthy email response

01:17:56,709 --> 01:17:55,120
i'm not

2030
01:17:58,870 --> 01:17:56,719
healthy enough right now to look at it

2031
01:18:00,630 --> 01:17:58,880
without being provoked and triggered i'm

2032
01:18:02,470 --> 01:18:00,640
slowly getting there slowly slowly

2033
01:18:05,510 --> 01:18:02,480

thank you

2037

01:18:20,950 --> 01:18:18,640
more quickly many people have sent words

2042
01:18:22,709 --> 01:18:20,960
of encouragement and instruction and

2043
01:18:24,870 --> 01:18:22,719
often their contingent on some worldview

2044
01:18:26,790 --> 01:18:24,880
that's metaphysical or

2045
01:18:28,870 --> 01:18:26,800
or this or from people who consider

2046
01:18:30,950 --> 01:18:28,880
themselves to be enlightened self-titled

2047
01:18:33,669 --> 01:18:30,960
as enlightened and i i hope you

2048
01:18:35,590 --> 01:18:33,679
you forgive me that i haven't responded

2049
01:18:38,390 --> 01:18:35,600
to you i'm just not at the place where i

2050
01:18:40,390 --> 01:18:38,400
can begin to read those comments and

2051
01:18:42,950 --> 01:18:40,400
personally i don't understand how

2052
01:18:45,110 --> 01:18:42,960
someone can

2053
01:18:46,310 --> 01:18:45,120
study

2054
01:18:48,149 --> 01:18:46,320
physics or

2055
01:18:51,110 --> 01:18:48,159
let's see let's say metaphysics and

2056
01:18:53,110 --> 01:18:51,120
consciousness and ufos and what it means

2057
01:18:56,390 --> 01:18:53,120
to have an identity and the self and so

2058
01:18:57,910 --> 01:18:56,400
on and not go through totalizing

2059
01:18:59,910 --> 01:18:57,920
horror to me it just means that they

2060
01:19:01,830 --> 01:18:59,920
haven't thought deeply enough about it

2061
01:19:03,350 --> 01:19:01,840
or that they haven't thought severely

2062
01:19:06,390 --> 01:19:03,360
enough about it or genuinely enough

2063
01:19:08,229 --> 01:19:06,400
about it or intensely enough about it

2064
01:19:09,270 --> 01:19:08,239
i feel like if one hasn't found a truth

2065
01:19:11,910 --> 01:19:09,280
that they

2066
01:19:14,950 --> 01:19:11,920
haven't recoiled from in horror

2067
01:19:15,830 --> 01:19:14,960
then perhaps one hasn't searched

2068
01:19:19,030 --> 01:19:15,840
enough

2069
01:19:23,669 --> 01:19:22,390
no clue almost no clue as to how

2070
01:19:25,430 --> 01:19:23,679
much this

2071
01:19:27,430 --> 01:19:25,440
path that

2072
01:19:30,310 --> 01:19:27,440
one is on has been trodden

2073
01:19:31,910 --> 01:19:30,320
by millions and millions and

2074
01:19:32,950 --> 01:19:31,920
trillions billions

2075
01:19:33,830 --> 01:19:32,960
of

2076
01:19:36,870 --> 01:19:33,840
people

2077
01:19:43,350 --> 01:19:40,149
objects before you and the aid you

2078
01:19:48,550 --> 01:19:46,390
pursual of some hypothetical claim and

2079
01:19:49,990 --> 01:19:48,560
you think well hey i'm just i'm truly

2080
01:19:52,790 --> 01:19:50,000
contending with this i don't think you

2081
01:19:55,430 --> 01:19:52,800
are i don't i don't think i was until i

2082
01:19:56,390 --> 01:19:55,440
well i'm speaking so vaguely around this

2083
01:20:03,110 --> 01:19:56,400
because

2084
01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:08,390
i think that if one

2085
01:20:11,590 --> 01:20:09,750
hasn't

2086
01:20:13,590 --> 01:20:11,600
shuddered and thought

2087
01:20:17,750 --> 01:20:13,600
that

2088
01:20:19,510 --> 01:20:17,760
oh my gosh this can't be no no no no

2089
01:20:21,189 --> 01:20:19,520
then

2090
01:20:27,830 --> 01:20:21,199
one

2091
01:20:29,990 --> 01:20:27,840
thinking they're

2092
01:20:33,030 --> 01:20:30,000
rolling in the deep but they're

2093
01:20:35,110 --> 01:20:33,040
merely an ant on the surface

2094
01:20:37,270 --> 01:20:35,120
i'm speaking again from personal

2095
01:20:40,790 --> 01:20:37,280
experience thinking that what i was

2096
01:20:43,189 --> 01:20:40,800
doing was intense investigations

2097
01:20:45,189 --> 01:20:43,199
into reality but i was just

2098
01:20:48,630 --> 01:20:45,199
performing negligible scratches on the

2099
01:20:58,229 --> 01:20:49,510
r

2100
01:21:01,430 --> 01:20:58,239
no i've seen images videos and so on but

2101
01:21:04,229 --> 01:21:01,440
i don't watch it i i'm not interested in

2102
01:21:05,669 --> 01:21:04,239
that it sounds interesting though i

2103
01:21:08,310 --> 01:21:05,679
think you like it and i'm glad that you

2104
01:21:10,470 --> 01:21:08,320
do marky the sparky says really enjoying

2105
01:21:12,550 --> 01:21:10,480
the podcast just one question why do we

2106
01:21:15,030 --> 01:21:12,560
assume ufos are from outer space that's

2107
01:21:17,430 --> 01:21:15,040
correct marky one should perhaps not

2108
01:21:20,229 --> 01:21:17,440
assume that craig fleming says get him

2109
01:21:21,669 --> 01:21:20,239
on your show steven greer labrad pam

2110
01:21:23,510 --> 01:21:21,679
says have you thought about steven grier

2111
01:21:25,270 --> 01:21:23,520
as a guest

2112
01:21:28,229 --> 01:21:25,280
silver platter says what's your take on

2113
01:21:29,189 --> 01:21:28,239
stephen greer and zz co says hi kurt

2114
01:21:31,910 --> 01:21:29,199
thanks for your work what are your

2115
01:21:34,070 --> 01:21:31,920
thoughts on steven grier so

2116
01:21:35,189 --> 01:21:34,080
i have emailed stephen and steven's

2117
01:21:37,270 --> 01:21:35,199
people

2118
01:21:40,070 --> 01:21:37,280
particularly this one lady named anna

2119
01:21:43,510 --> 01:21:40,080
cramer who serves as his assistant i've

2120
01:21:45,430 --> 01:21:43,520
emailed her approximately once a month

2121
01:21:47,990 --> 01:21:45,440
for the past year or year and a half or

2122
01:21:50,550 --> 01:21:48,000
so and she has said

2123
01:21:52,790 --> 01:21:50,560
every single time no steven will not

2124
01:21:54,870 --> 01:21:52,800
come on i

2125
01:21:56,950 --> 01:21:54,880
i don't know why because i haven't had

2126
01:21:59,830 --> 01:21:56,960
someone say no

2127
01:22:01,910 --> 01:21:59,840
so consistently ever for any interview

2128
01:22:04,390 --> 01:22:01,920
that i've done whether it's with my

2129
01:22:06,950 --> 01:22:04,400
previous company indie film to or as a

2130
01:22:08,870 --> 01:22:06,960
as a filmmaker in some other film or toe

2131
01:22:12,709 --> 01:22:08,880
or

2132
01:22:15,430 --> 01:22:12,719
life i don't think i've had someone say

2133
01:22:17,350 --> 01:22:15,440
no so many times

2134
01:22:18,149 --> 01:22:17,360
without saying yes

2135
01:22:21,390 --> 01:22:18,159
the

2136
01:22:23,430 --> 01:22:21,400
public email for anna is anna kramer at

2137
01:22:25,590 --> 01:22:23,440
siriusdisclosure.com i will put that in

2138
01:22:26,870 --> 01:22:25,600
the email address the reason why sorry

2139
01:22:28,709 --> 01:22:26,880
i'll put that in the description the

2140
01:22:31,270 --> 01:22:28,719
reason why i'm saying that out aloud is

2141
01:22:33,590 --> 01:22:31,280
because it's a public email and i think

2142
01:22:34,790 --> 01:22:33,600
that if you who's listening would

2143
01:22:37,030 --> 01:22:34,800
request

2144
01:22:38,709 --> 01:22:37,040
i would love to see stephen greer on the

2145
01:22:41,030 --> 01:22:38,719
toe podcast on the theories of

2146
01:22:43,030 --> 01:22:41,040
everything podcast with kurt can you

2147
01:22:45,990 --> 01:22:43,040
please have him come on i would love to

2148
01:22:48,229 --> 01:22:46,000
see that if you email and say that that

2149
01:22:50,870 --> 01:22:48,239
would increase the chances

2150
01:22:52,870 --> 01:22:50,880
sure basher says in biblical times they

2151
01:22:53,510 --> 01:22:52,880
said that angels came from the heavens

2152
01:23:01,350 --> 01:22:53,520
of

2153
01:23:03,590 --> 01:23:01,360
god i think that the epilogue that the

2154
01:23:05,270 --> 01:23:03,600
current phenomenon served as an

2155
01:23:08,629 --> 01:23:05,280
inspiration for

2156
01:23:12,550 --> 01:23:08,639
ancient hierophany is not terribly

2157
01:23:15,110 --> 01:23:12,560
strong i know many people love that

2158
01:23:16,709 --> 01:23:15,120
proposition or that hypothesis i'm not

2159
01:23:19,110 --> 01:23:16,719
terribly convinced

2160
01:23:22,310 --> 01:23:19,120
it's tied to religion in the form of

2161
01:23:23,270 --> 01:23:22,320
of being a scaffolding or an instigation

2162
01:23:27,750 --> 01:23:23,280
of

2163
01:23:30,229 --> 01:23:27,760
to me is

2164
01:23:32,229 --> 01:23:30,239
it's contradictory and it can't be the

2165
01:23:36,950 --> 01:23:32,239
full account it's

2166
01:23:42,149 --> 01:23:40,310
rajiro bahiro says good evening kurt

2167
01:23:43,669 --> 01:23:42,159
concerning ufos are you now a believer

2168
01:23:45,830 --> 01:23:43,679
after all the interviews you've done are

2169
01:23:48,390 --> 01:23:45,840
you still a skeptic are you a skeptic

2170
01:23:50,870 --> 01:23:48,400
and why and so on things from canada

2171
01:23:56,709 --> 01:23:54,790
i'm an inquisitor i'm unsure

2172
01:23:58,550 --> 01:23:56,719
what is occurring it feels like

2173
01:24:00,709 --> 01:23:58,560
something is amiss

2174
01:24:04,229 --> 01:24:00,719
i don't see it as being

2175
01:24:08,470 --> 01:24:04,239
obviously tareen or non terrine

2176
01:24:13,590 --> 01:24:11,110
i'm a curious person dean colby says

2177
01:24:14,470 --> 01:24:13,600
what are your three favorite novels

2178
01:24:20,709 --> 01:24:14,480
i

2179
01:24:21,910 --> 01:24:20,719
second

2180
01:24:23,910 --> 01:24:21,920
i do have

2181
01:24:24,950 --> 01:24:23,920
two books that i frequently and only

2182
01:24:26,950 --> 01:24:24,960
recommend on this channel i think

2183
01:24:28,790 --> 01:24:26,960
there's only been two books by people

2184
01:24:31,270 --> 01:24:28,800
who are living sorry by people who have

2185
01:24:33,030 --> 01:24:31,280
been on the toe channel that's carlo

2186
01:24:36,149 --> 01:24:33,040
rivelli's the order of time i believe

2187
01:24:38,390 --> 01:24:36,159
it's called and then another is

2188
01:24:40,470 --> 01:24:38,400
ian mcgill chris master and his emissary

2189
01:24:42,629 --> 01:24:40,480
i thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed those

2190
01:24:43,910 --> 01:24:42,639
books i also love girdle escherbach

2191
01:24:45,189 --> 01:24:43,920
douglas hofstede hasn't been on the

2192
01:24:48,229 --> 01:24:45,199
program so i don't include him in that

2193
01:24:50,070 --> 01:24:48,239
but i recommend that wholeheartedly

2194
01:24:53,830 --> 01:24:50,080
matthew wallace says hello kurt how do

2195
01:24:56,470 --> 01:24:53,840
you avoid existential dread barely

2196
01:24:59,830 --> 01:24:56,480
matthew though i'm i'm thinking of doing

2197
01:25:02,149 --> 01:24:59,840
a standalone podcast on

2198
01:25:04,790 --> 01:25:02,159
the dark knight of the soul much like

2199
01:25:06,870 --> 01:25:04,800
how i read jacob smallian's

2200
01:25:09,030 --> 01:25:06,880
god is a taoist which is one of my

2201
01:25:12,390 --> 01:25:09,040
favorite pieces on this channel it's the

2202
01:25:14,470 --> 01:25:12,400
musings of a mathematician on free will

2203
01:25:16,310 --> 01:25:14,480
from a zen perspective

2204
01:25:18,390 --> 01:25:16,320
couched in the chronicle of a man

2205
01:25:20,550 --> 01:25:18,400
speaking to god begging god to release

2206
01:25:22,310 --> 01:25:20,560
him from the burden of free will just me

2207
01:25:24,229 --> 01:25:22,320
thinking about doing a reading of the

2208
01:25:26,550 --> 01:25:24,239
dark night of a soul sorry the dark

2209
01:25:28,149 --> 01:25:26,560
knight of the soul and doing some

2210
01:25:30,070 --> 01:25:28,159
commentary on it

2211
01:25:32,149 --> 01:25:30,080
it provokes me slightly

2212
01:25:34,149 --> 01:25:32,159
it agitates me and i think that that may

2213
01:25:36,310 --> 01:25:34,159
be a reason why i should

2214
01:25:37,350 --> 01:25:36,320
do it as a form of therapy for myself

2215
01:25:39,750 --> 01:25:37,360
and perhaps

2216
01:25:42,870 --> 01:25:39,760
hopefully others it may quell my own

2217
01:25:45,430 --> 01:25:42,880
existential dread recontextualize it to

2218
01:25:46,870 --> 01:25:45,440
not be so terrifying and debilitating

2219
01:25:49,030 --> 01:25:46,880
i've also talked about the dark knight

2220
01:25:51,110 --> 01:25:49,040
of the soul on the diana pasulka podcast

2221
01:25:53,430 --> 01:25:51,120
which will be around here and the chloe

2222
01:25:55,189 --> 01:25:53,440
valderrie podcast in some ways it's

2223
01:25:56,629 --> 01:25:55,199
about

2224
01:25:58,149 --> 01:25:56,639
ego death

2225
01:26:01,030 --> 01:25:58,159
though perhaps the term

2226
01:26:03,510 --> 01:26:01,040
ego death should be ego transformation

2227
01:26:06,149 --> 01:26:03,520
or liberation or metamorphism or

2228
01:26:07,750 --> 01:26:06,159
integration because it can feel like

2229
01:26:09,350 --> 01:26:07,760
dying but

2230
01:26:11,189 --> 01:26:09,360
i don't think ego death is the right

2231
01:26:13,110 --> 01:26:11,199
term i think it's a

2232
01:26:18,870 --> 01:26:13,120
well it's a provocative term

2233
01:26:21,590 --> 01:26:20,470
beams of light

2234
01:26:24,149 --> 01:26:21,600
of

2235
01:26:26,790 --> 01:26:24,159
a wonderful wondrous

2236
01:26:31,270 --> 01:26:26,800
beneficent beatific place

2237
01:26:34,870 --> 01:26:33,189
of goodness

2238
01:26:37,510 --> 01:26:34,880
that can come from it

2239
01:26:39,189 --> 01:26:37,520
us

2240
01:26:41,750 --> 01:26:39,199
a place that's

2241
01:26:43,270 --> 01:26:41,760
that's helpful and

2242
01:26:49,270 --> 01:26:43,280
and supporting and shielding and

2243
01:26:49,280 --> 01:26:52,629
and tranquil

2244
01:26:57,669 --> 01:26:55,110
and calming and loving so i don't know

2245
01:27:00,629 --> 01:26:57,679
if ego death is the right

2246
01:27:04,229 --> 01:27:00,639
term i would prefer to

2247
01:27:07,510 --> 01:27:04,239
have a different terminology i feel like

2248
01:27:10,229 --> 01:27:09,510
with toe what's happened is that i've

2249
01:27:14,629 --> 01:27:10,239
been

2250
01:27:16,629 --> 01:27:14,639
hypothesizing and hypothetizing

2251
01:27:21,350 --> 01:27:16,639
far too much

2252
01:27:23,830 --> 01:27:21,360
it's it's a huge huge huge cognitive

2253
01:27:26,229 --> 01:27:23,840
effort sorry it's a huge imposition in

2254
01:27:27,110 --> 01:27:26,239
some ways to go through someone's toe

2255
01:27:30,830 --> 01:27:27,120
and then

2256
01:27:32,390 --> 01:27:30,840
another one and jump to another one it's

2257
01:27:33,790 --> 01:27:32,400
extremely

2258
01:27:36,629 --> 01:27:33,800
psychologically

2259
01:27:38,310 --> 01:27:36,639
unsettling like that's to say the least

2260
01:27:39,590 --> 01:27:38,320
it's unsettling

2261
01:27:41,350 --> 01:27:39,600
it's

2262
01:27:43,510 --> 01:27:41,360
something that i

2263
01:27:47,990 --> 01:27:43,520
thinking about toes and thinking about

2264
01:27:52,870 --> 01:27:49,430
not even facts how to make sense of what

2265
01:27:56,149 --> 01:27:52,880
it means to make sense is something that

2266
01:27:57,750 --> 01:27:56,159
consumes me unceasingly virtually every

2267
01:27:58,790 --> 01:27:57,760
single minute

2268
01:28:01,590 --> 01:27:58,800
of

2269
01:28:03,669 --> 01:28:01,600
every waking day for the past few months

2270
01:28:05,910 --> 01:28:03,679
and by the way sometimes even the

2271
01:28:07,430 --> 01:28:05,920
sleeping days that that is to say not

2272
01:28:09,590 --> 01:28:07,440
just in my wakeful moments but when i

2273
01:28:11,590 --> 01:28:09,600
sleep though i love it i don't i

2274
01:28:12,950 --> 01:28:11,600
actually like nightmares i rarely get

2275
01:28:14,629 --> 01:28:12,960
them but i

2276
01:28:15,990 --> 01:28:14,639
i have a perverse relationship to

2277
01:28:17,750 --> 01:28:16,000
nightmares because i believe that

2278
01:28:20,070 --> 01:28:17,760
they're regenerative in some manner that

2279
01:28:24,149 --> 01:28:20,080
i'm facing a fear and hey i would much

2280
01:28:27,910 --> 01:28:26,149
in the waking life i used to believe

2281
01:28:29,910 --> 01:28:27,920
that people who say you should be

2282
01:28:32,070 --> 01:28:29,920
open-minded but not so open-minded that

2283
01:28:33,510 --> 01:28:32,080
your head falls out

2284
01:28:35,430 --> 01:28:33,520
i used to feel like they betray a

2285
01:28:38,070 --> 01:28:35,440
certain idea of god because what they're

2286
01:28:39,270 --> 01:28:38,080
doing is following not following truth

2287
01:28:41,350 --> 01:28:39,280
they're following what it means to

2288
01:28:43,510 --> 01:28:41,360
survive and

2289
01:28:45,590 --> 01:28:43,520
to put their health above

2290
01:28:46,870 --> 01:28:45,600
objective truth or something higher than

2291
01:28:48,310 --> 01:28:46,880
themselves

2292
01:28:49,830 --> 01:28:48,320
that is to say how do you know you

2293
01:28:52,229 --> 01:28:49,840
crossed a line

2294
01:28:53,910 --> 01:28:52,239
until you've crossed it even even then

2295
01:28:55,910 --> 01:28:53,920
you don't know because many people who

2296
01:28:58,310 --> 01:28:55,920
have gone mad quote unquote don't

2297
01:28:59,990 --> 01:28:58,320
believe themselves to be mad and it's

2298
01:29:02,629 --> 01:29:00,000
difficult to know when one's head has

2299
01:29:04,709 --> 01:29:02,639
fallen out but i see the utility in that

2300
01:29:07,669 --> 01:29:04,719
phrase and i never saw it before i used

2301
01:29:09,270 --> 01:29:07,679
to see that as being a

2302
01:29:11,669 --> 01:29:09,280
statement that's less about searching

2303
01:29:13,350 --> 01:29:11,679
for the truth and more about justifying

2304
01:29:15,669 --> 01:29:13,360
the perimeter of lines that you've

2305
01:29:17,750 --> 01:29:15,679
already established shouldn't be crossed

2306
01:29:19,669 --> 01:29:17,760
so it's a statement of anti-truth but

2307
01:29:22,070 --> 01:29:19,679
now i see that there's

2308
01:29:24,550 --> 01:29:22,080
there's ex there well

2309
01:29:26,390 --> 01:29:24,560
there's extreme danger and what it feels

2310
01:29:28,790 --> 01:29:26,400
like to awaken if that's even what it

2311
01:29:30,310 --> 01:29:28,800
what is the case is it's

2312
01:29:32,070 --> 01:29:30,320
it's like uh

2313
01:29:35,350 --> 01:29:32,080
at least now it feels like i'm in a daze

2314
01:29:37,750 --> 01:29:35,360
i mean i'm i'm i'm sleeping

2315
01:29:39,510 --> 01:29:37,760
while i'm awake it's it's at least not

2316
01:29:41,350 --> 01:29:39,520
horrific anymore there are moments of

2317
01:29:43,910 --> 01:29:41,360
lucidity which happen more and more and

2318
01:29:45,750 --> 01:29:43,920
more frequently think

2319
01:29:46,709 --> 01:29:45,760
thank god thank the universe think

2320
01:29:47,750 --> 01:29:46,719
whatever

2321
01:29:50,229 --> 01:29:47,760
it may be

2322
01:29:53,189 --> 01:29:50,239
i feel much more grounded i feel more

2323
01:29:55,189 --> 01:29:53,199
eagerly sorry my ego feels more grounded

2324
01:29:57,189 --> 01:29:55,199
and it's extremely pleasant

2325
01:29:59,030 --> 01:29:57,199
and now i've come to the

2326
01:30:01,669 --> 01:29:59,040
conclusion that perhaps one shouldn't

2327
01:30:03,350 --> 01:30:01,679
have an open mind necessarily one should

2328
01:30:05,510 --> 01:30:03,360
have an open heart but that's not the

2329
01:30:07,669 --> 01:30:05,520
same as an open mind an open heart comes

2330
01:30:10,229 --> 01:30:07,679
first

2331
01:30:11,990 --> 01:30:10,239
i don't think that the terror is worth

2332
01:30:15,110 --> 01:30:12,000
the trade

2333
01:30:17,189 --> 01:30:15,120
i think that love should be primary

2334
01:30:19,430 --> 01:30:17,199
and i hope that

2335
01:30:20,870 --> 01:30:19,440
i hope that

2336
01:30:24,470 --> 01:30:20,880
well

2337
01:30:26,310 --> 01:30:24,480
don't know

2338
01:30:28,470 --> 01:30:26,320
james robert ryan says kurt you're far

2339
01:30:29,110 --> 01:30:28,480
too hard on yourself please stop you're

2340
01:30:57,750 --> 01:30:29,120
a

2341
01:31:02,870 --> 01:31:00,629
of of sitting in endless

2342
01:31:04,229 --> 01:31:02,880
exams where you're cramming for studying

2343
01:31:07,350 --> 01:31:04,239
without break

2344
01:31:09,270 --> 01:31:07,360
mobster imaging i

2345
01:31:11,750 --> 01:31:09,280
used to be extremely hard on myself i

2346
01:31:14,709 --> 01:31:11,760
still am in many respects but i've

2347
01:31:15,669 --> 01:31:14,719
slowly come to appreciate

2348
01:31:17,110 --> 01:31:15,679
that

2349
01:31:18,709 --> 01:31:17,120
what i'm

2350
01:31:21,990 --> 01:31:18,719
or what is being done with the toe

2351
01:31:24,550 --> 01:31:22,000
channel is a is it

2352
01:31:26,149 --> 01:31:24,560
well firstly i've forgotten almost all

2353
01:31:28,310 --> 01:31:26,159
of my university studies which means i'm

2354
01:31:30,550 --> 01:31:28,320
starting from scratch so i've had to

2355
01:31:34,390 --> 01:31:30,560
build up essentially a phd level

2356
01:31:37,830 --> 01:31:36,229
when i say it's almost like it is

2357
01:31:40,950 --> 01:31:37,840
because technically as a phd in a

2358
01:31:43,270 --> 01:31:40,960
postdoc you have to do research so

2359
01:31:44,870 --> 01:31:43,280
it's an unqualified statement when i say

2360
01:31:46,709 --> 01:31:44,880
that

2361
01:31:48,950 --> 01:31:46,719
it's at the phd level

2362
01:31:51,189 --> 01:31:48,960
hopefully that makes sense but i've come

2363
01:31:53,990 --> 01:31:51,199
to now appreciate that

2364
01:31:56,310 --> 01:31:54,000
this is an extremely difficult endeavor

2365
01:31:58,070 --> 01:31:56,320
because of that reason and and i have to

2366
01:32:01,430 --> 01:31:58,080
do so while i'm not at my cognitive

2367
01:32:03,590 --> 01:32:01,440
optimal firstly age-wise secondly

2368
01:32:05,430 --> 01:32:03,600
i'm well recent

2369
01:32:08,550 --> 01:32:05,440
events wise

2370
01:32:11,110 --> 01:32:08,560
and i'm studying completely alone having

2371
01:32:14,149 --> 01:32:11,120
almost no one to ask for clarification

2372
01:32:15,669 --> 01:32:14,159
here and there and then number four i'm

2373
01:32:17,030 --> 01:32:15,679
building the theories of everything

2374
01:32:19,750 --> 01:32:17,040
channel in different directions

2375
01:32:22,149 --> 01:32:19,760
simultaneously emailing guests and so on

2376
01:32:23,830 --> 01:32:22,159
booking and editing and number five i'm

2377
01:32:25,590 --> 01:32:23,840
i'm studying

2378
01:32:27,430 --> 01:32:25,600
much more than mathematics and physics

2379
01:32:29,910 --> 01:32:27,440
i'm studying neuroscience and philosophy

2380
01:32:33,830 --> 01:32:29,920
and religion metaphysics

2381
01:32:35,910 --> 01:32:33,840
and i have to do this all while still

2382
01:32:38,229 --> 01:32:35,920
being able to spend time with my wife

2383
01:32:40,070 --> 01:32:38,239
and while being able to keep my body

2384
01:32:42,470 --> 01:32:40,080
extremely fit which i prioritize my

2385
01:32:44,070 --> 01:32:42,480
health and my relationship and while

2386
01:32:46,070 --> 01:32:44,080
being interviewed on other platforms

2387
01:32:47,990 --> 01:32:46,080
like previously just about two hours to

2388
01:32:51,189 --> 01:32:48,000
three hours ago i was on greg henriques

2389
01:32:52,950 --> 01:32:51,199
and generation zed a few hours prior to

2390
01:32:55,030 --> 01:32:52,960
that and chris leto was coming up

2391
01:32:57,110 --> 01:32:55,040
coleman hughes is coming up and i have

2392
01:32:58,950 --> 01:32:57,120
to do that while not knowing what the

2393
01:33:01,590 --> 01:32:58,960
heck am i doing i'm learning all of this

2394
01:33:03,750 --> 01:33:01,600
as i go there's no straight and narrow

2395
01:33:04,629 --> 01:33:03,760
list of courses in order

2396
01:33:09,110 --> 01:33:04,639
to

2397
01:33:10,870 --> 01:33:09,120
and at the same time i'm doing that

2398
01:33:13,590 --> 01:33:10,880
while i have a non-profit film company

2399
01:33:15,430 --> 01:33:13,600
on the side running a film festival and

2400
01:33:17,030 --> 01:33:15,440
then at the same time i'm doing that

2401
01:33:19,590 --> 01:33:17,040
while

2402
01:33:22,470 --> 01:33:19,600
not having someone to carry me like eric

2403
01:33:24,070 --> 01:33:22,480
weinstein did for lex or or rogan did

2404
01:33:25,350 --> 01:33:24,080
for lex or

2405
01:33:26,950 --> 01:33:25,360
to have

2406
01:33:28,950 --> 01:33:26,960
personal connections to people like hal

2407
01:33:30,870 --> 01:33:28,960
put off like i know some youtubers do

2408
01:33:32,310 --> 01:33:30,880
and they say yeah i'm friends with him

2409
01:33:34,790 --> 01:33:32,320
and i've talked with them so i have some

2410
01:33:38,070 --> 01:33:34,800
bitterness and self-loathing there i i

2411
01:33:40,149 --> 01:33:38,080
do i see it i

2412
01:33:42,149 --> 01:33:40,159
i just remind myself look kurt you're

2413
01:33:45,590 --> 01:33:42,159
doing all of this all of what i've

2414
01:33:47,990 --> 01:33:45,600
listed simultaneously virtually

2415
01:33:50,550 --> 01:33:48,000
by myself and luckily now i have the

2416
01:33:54,149 --> 01:33:50,560
help of my wife who essentially

2417
01:33:56,070 --> 01:33:54,159
who's like a partner in tow and she

2418
01:33:57,990 --> 01:33:56,080
she does she helps me with the comments

2419
01:33:59,910 --> 01:33:58,000
and with the direction of toe and now

2420
01:34:02,390 --> 01:33:59,920
i'm luckily able to hire an editor for

2421
01:34:04,229 --> 01:34:02,400
toe so

2422
01:34:08,070 --> 01:34:04,239
i have to remind myself that it's an

2423
01:34:11,910 --> 01:34:08,080
extremely heavy heavy heavy heavy load

2424
01:34:14,870 --> 01:34:11,920
i still feel if i'm being honest

2425
01:34:17,350 --> 01:34:14,880
that i i'm not making enough progress

2426
01:34:19,189 --> 01:34:17,360
i'm extremely far behind i often feel i

2427
01:34:21,350 --> 01:34:19,199
often tell myself i'm 15 years behind i

2428
01:34:23,590 --> 01:34:21,360
feel like my mind is 15 years too late

2429
01:34:25,270 --> 01:34:23,600
15 years over and over that i'm not

2430
01:34:27,030 --> 01:34:25,280
learning quick enough i'm i get

2431
01:34:28,709 --> 01:34:27,040
extremely annoyed when i have to relearn

2432
01:34:31,430 --> 01:34:28,719
material that i should have absorbed the

2433
01:34:38,709 --> 01:34:31,440
first time 15 years ago

2434
01:34:45,750 --> 01:34:41,990
it's

2435
01:34:46,709 --> 01:34:45,760
at least not publicly i don't i don't

2436
01:34:47,510 --> 01:34:46,719
know

2437
01:34:50,870 --> 01:34:47,520
so

2438
01:34:52,390 --> 01:34:50,880
difficult though because i feel like

2439
01:34:54,229 --> 01:34:52,400
when i'm

2440
01:34:55,270 --> 01:34:54,239
i it's difficult for me to pat myself on

2441
01:34:57,270 --> 01:34:55,280
the back

2442
01:34:59,430 --> 01:34:57,280
i feel like i'm giving myself a way out

2443
01:35:01,590 --> 01:34:59,440
so self-love is something that i have a

2444
01:35:04,229 --> 01:35:01,600
a difficult time with i'm getting much

2445
01:35:05,910 --> 01:35:04,239
better with that though i'm much better

2446
01:35:07,990 --> 01:35:05,920
with that than i've ever been

2447
01:35:10,310 --> 01:35:08,000
i'm nowhere near optimal

2448
01:35:12,390 --> 01:35:10,320
andreas muller says a german here you

2449
01:35:15,110 --> 01:35:12,400
firstly your pronunciation of valtton is

2450
01:35:16,709 --> 01:35:15,120
terrible and cute secondly

2451
01:35:19,350 --> 01:35:16,719
why is it so important for you to find a

2452
01:35:21,750 --> 01:35:19,360
veltan xiaolong what i admire about you

2453
01:35:23,990 --> 01:35:21,760
is that you remain critical and open but

2454
01:35:25,830 --> 01:35:24,000
after so many guests all lying to

2455
01:35:27,750 --> 01:35:25,840
themselves surely you have realized that

2456
01:35:29,350 --> 01:35:27,760
the quest is pointless

2457
01:35:30,950 --> 01:35:29,360
even if you disagree what would the

2458
01:35:32,470 --> 01:35:30,960
consequence be if you agreed with me so

2459
01:35:34,070 --> 01:35:32,480
firstly let's spell out what a veltan

2460
01:35:36,149 --> 01:35:34,080
showing is that's like an

2461
01:35:37,669 --> 01:35:36,159
all-encompassing worldview

2462
01:35:40,709 --> 01:35:37,679
such that you can contextualize or

2463
01:35:42,470 --> 01:35:40,719
interpolate novel pieces of information

2464
01:35:44,149 --> 01:35:42,480
you can acquire new knowledge quickly

2465
01:35:46,550 --> 01:35:44,159
because you have a model that's already

2466
01:35:48,229 --> 01:35:46,560
been formed and this view usually has

2467
01:35:50,229 --> 01:35:48,239
something to do with ontology which is

2468
01:35:52,550 --> 01:35:50,239
metaphysics and

2469
01:35:54,870 --> 01:35:52,560
and then you live in a way that

2470
01:35:56,629 --> 01:35:54,880
that comports with that so some people

2471
01:35:59,110 --> 01:35:56,639
they live in a way that's

2472
01:36:00,950 --> 01:35:59,120
that's self sorry that's hypocritical

2473
01:36:02,310 --> 01:36:00,960
but

2474
01:36:03,590 --> 01:36:02,320
i consider someone who has a belt on

2475
01:36:05,110 --> 01:36:03,600
showing to be consistent with their

2476
01:36:07,510 --> 01:36:05,120
professed beliefs

2477
01:36:09,910 --> 01:36:07,520
and the model generally has a built-in

2478
01:36:15,750 --> 01:36:09,920
mechanism for updating its own model so

2479
01:36:20,550 --> 01:36:17,750
all lying to themselves really realize

2480
01:36:22,070 --> 01:36:20,560
the quest is pointless

2481
01:36:24,070 --> 01:36:22,080
so there's some

2482
01:36:26,950 --> 01:36:24,080
i have intimations occasionally of a

2483
01:36:29,510 --> 01:36:26,960
twin wittgenstein who's a philosopher of

2484
01:36:31,830 --> 01:36:29,520
the 1900s and heidegger who's also a

2485
01:36:33,110 --> 01:36:31,840
philosopher of the 1900s continental and

2486
01:36:34,470 --> 01:36:33,120
analytical

2487
01:36:42,229 --> 01:36:34,480
that

2488
01:36:46,709 --> 01:36:44,950
the language is a is a problem so some

2489
01:36:48,149 --> 01:36:46,719
people would take the approach and say

2490
01:36:50,310 --> 01:36:48,159
okay so then

2491
01:36:52,470 --> 01:36:50,320
let's stop talking but heidegger takes

2492
01:36:53,990 --> 01:36:52,480
the approach and says that it means that

2493
01:36:55,990 --> 01:36:54,000
we need to develop a new language the

2494
01:36:58,390 --> 01:36:56,000
current language is the problem much

2495
01:37:00,709 --> 01:36:58,400
like if one was trying to do mathematics

2496
01:37:02,629 --> 01:37:00,719
without algebra which was the case

2497
01:37:04,310 --> 01:37:02,639
thousands of years ago you're severely

2498
01:37:06,470 --> 01:37:04,320
limited in what you could do essentially

2499
01:37:08,790 --> 01:37:06,480
you could just do euclidean geometry

2500
01:37:10,950 --> 01:37:08,800
and not even topology so topology is

2501
01:37:13,030 --> 01:37:10,960
geometric but you need open sets so you

2502
01:37:14,950 --> 01:37:13,040
need to have an algebraic

2503
01:37:16,950 --> 01:37:14,960
conception to understand topology

2504
01:37:19,350 --> 01:37:16,960
properly and

2505
01:37:20,629 --> 01:37:19,360
otherwise you can just do so purely

2506
01:37:22,550 --> 01:37:20,639
visually but then you miss certain

2507
01:37:24,550 --> 01:37:22,560
aspects of topology you can't do physics

2508
01:37:27,350 --> 01:37:24,560
precisely either so imagine you go back

2509
01:37:29,350 --> 01:37:27,360
3000 years ago and you say that language

2510
01:37:31,430 --> 01:37:29,360
is the problem and only experience can

2511
01:37:32,870 --> 01:37:31,440
tell you the laws of physics but then

2512
01:37:35,750 --> 01:37:32,880
you would completely miss that

2513
01:37:37,669 --> 01:37:35,760
experience is extremely misleading when

2514
01:37:39,270 --> 01:37:37,679
it comes to seeing regularities of

2515
01:37:41,109 --> 01:37:39,280
nature and laws and so on there are

2516
01:37:43,189 --> 01:37:41,119
plenty of counter-intuitive results and

2517
01:37:45,990 --> 01:37:43,199
that's leaving quantum mechanics

2518
01:37:48,629 --> 01:37:46,000
out of this it seems extremely clear

2519
01:37:51,109 --> 01:37:48,639
that there are entire frameworks and

2520
01:37:53,510 --> 01:37:51,119
world views and

2521
01:37:55,910 --> 01:37:53,520
and models that that are in principle

2522
01:37:57,910 --> 01:37:55,920
out of reach from one's current position

2523
01:38:00,070 --> 01:37:57,920
however acquiring some new psycho

2524
01:38:02,950 --> 01:38:00,080
technology quote unquote allows for some

2525
01:38:05,590 --> 01:38:02,960
radical change and this is a term from

2526
01:38:08,070 --> 01:38:05,600
john vervecki a way to think about this

2527
01:38:09,750 --> 01:38:08,080
is imagine if

2528
01:38:12,629 --> 01:38:09,760
imagine all of the concepts you can't

2529
01:38:13,830 --> 01:38:12,639
you can't have let alone explain

2530
01:38:17,990 --> 01:38:13,840
if

2531
01:38:19,910 --> 01:38:18,000
every single word was taken from you

2532
01:38:21,830 --> 01:38:19,920
except ten so you could only express ten

2533
01:38:23,590 --> 01:38:21,840
words then would you say well these

2534
01:38:25,590 --> 01:38:23,600
concepts are in principle out of reach

2535
01:38:27,990 --> 01:38:25,600
maybe you would say so but it would be

2536
01:38:30,310 --> 01:38:28,000
false because it just requires an

2537
01:38:32,390 --> 01:38:30,320
explication of language a delineation of

2538
01:38:33,750 --> 01:38:32,400
language a more specific language so

2539
01:38:35,189 --> 01:38:33,760
then you can think of that in an

2540
01:38:38,070 --> 01:38:35,199
interesting manner what the heck is the

2541
01:38:39,910 --> 01:38:38,080
toe project well it's an attempt to

2542
01:38:41,669 --> 01:38:39,920
build psycho technologies there's that

2543
01:38:45,030 --> 01:38:41,679
word against psycho technologies to

2544
01:38:48,070 --> 01:38:45,040
bridge the gap between the east and the

2545
01:38:50,550 --> 01:38:48,080
west which currently is

2546
01:38:52,229 --> 01:38:50,560
currently seems unbridgeable

2547
01:38:53,990 --> 01:38:52,239
according to many people

2548
01:38:55,270 --> 01:38:54,000
and perhaps even some orthogonal view

2549
01:38:57,189 --> 01:38:55,280
it's not just east and west perhaps

2550
01:38:58,790 --> 01:38:57,199
there's a third perhaps there's a fourth

2551
01:39:01,189 --> 01:38:58,800
so an attempt to bridge some

2552
01:39:04,950 --> 01:39:01,199
communication between them to merge them

2553
01:39:06,790 --> 01:39:04,960
abby genosis like call this occasionally

2554
01:39:08,390 --> 01:39:06,800
such that we can

2555
01:39:09,350 --> 01:39:08,400
hopefully understand

2556
01:39:14,310 --> 01:39:09,360
the

2557
01:39:15,590 --> 01:39:14,320
this is tricky to say because

2558
01:39:16,550 --> 01:39:15,600
there are many assumptions that go in

2559
01:39:17,590 --> 01:39:16,560
this but

2560
01:39:19,270 --> 01:39:17,600
let me just

2561
01:39:23,350 --> 01:39:19,280
speak around this such that we can

2562
01:39:27,189 --> 01:39:24,950
better is the word that comes to mind

2563
01:39:30,229 --> 01:39:27,199
but it's false it's not better

2564
01:39:31,830 --> 01:39:30,239
accurate it may not even be the

2565
01:39:36,149 --> 01:39:31,840
correct word here but hopefully you

2566
01:39:40,550 --> 01:39:37,990
sebastian mahler says

2567
01:39:42,310 --> 01:39:40,560
how do you have such white teeth tips

2568
01:39:44,629 --> 01:39:42,320
beautiful looking hair as well i also

2569
01:39:46,390 --> 01:39:44,639
like the frowning look

2570
01:39:47,430 --> 01:39:46,400
pretty good podcast also good day well

2571
01:39:48,950 --> 01:39:47,440
hey man

2572
01:39:51,750 --> 01:39:48,960
sebastian thank you

2573
01:39:54,790 --> 01:39:51,760
chase says do you know the subset scores

2574
01:39:57,109 --> 01:39:54,800
of your iq verbal versus non-iq i

2575
01:39:59,189 --> 01:39:57,119
believe i talked about iq on the first

2576
01:40:02,229 --> 01:39:59,199
podcast as for the

2577
01:40:03,669 --> 01:40:02,239
subset the verbal i believe was far

2578
01:40:07,109 --> 01:40:03,679
lower than the analytical or the

2579
01:40:09,189 --> 01:40:07,119
mathematical component mark eirardo says

2580
01:40:11,510 --> 01:40:09,199
what brand or model of the guitar is

2581
01:40:13,590 --> 01:40:11,520
there behind the wall it's just a simple

2582
01:40:15,430 --> 01:40:13,600
epiphone i believe it's called and i get

2583
01:40:17,910 --> 01:40:15,440
questions about this guitar people want

2584
01:40:20,310 --> 01:40:17,920
to hear me play i sing and play

2585
01:40:23,189 --> 01:40:20,320
i wouldn't imagine it's terribly great i

2586
01:40:25,189 --> 01:40:23,199
sing mainly 90s songs i

2587
01:40:27,590 --> 01:40:25,199
i would love to record a cover song or

2588
01:40:29,590 --> 01:40:27,600
two but my wife is adamantly against it

2589
01:40:31,430 --> 01:40:29,600
because she feels

2590
01:40:33,910 --> 01:40:31,440
probably

2591
01:40:35,750 --> 01:40:33,920
accurately so that i'll embarrass myself

2592
01:40:37,910 --> 01:40:35,760
and it's also self-aggrandizing at least

2593
01:40:39,510 --> 01:40:37,920
it would be in my case

2594
01:40:41,430 --> 01:40:39,520
if you want to see another side of me an

2595
01:40:44,310 --> 01:40:41,440
artistic side though this one is on the

2596
01:40:46,390 --> 01:40:44,320
comedic end then perhaps watch the april

2597
01:40:48,870 --> 01:40:46,400
fools video particularly number two

2598
01:40:51,189 --> 01:40:48,880
which is here the the ranking of the

2599
01:40:52,790 --> 01:40:51,199
toes that's what it's called and i do

2600
01:40:54,950 --> 01:40:52,800
essentially stand up there because i

2601
01:40:56,870 --> 01:40:54,960
used to do stand-up when i was younger

2602
01:40:58,149 --> 01:40:56,880
charles gervais says hey kurt what's the

2603
01:41:00,629 --> 01:40:58,159
best way to stay up to date with the

2604
01:41:02,470 --> 01:41:00,639
latest articles within one's desired

2605
01:41:03,590 --> 01:41:02,480
field what are the best journals and so

2606
01:41:04,470 --> 01:41:03,600
on

2607
01:41:08,229 --> 01:41:04,480
that's

2608
01:41:11,030 --> 01:41:08,239
i don't know much

2609
01:41:13,270 --> 01:41:11,040
out of a narrow focus of high energy

2610
01:41:14,709 --> 01:41:13,280
physics and even there i know almost i'd

2611
01:41:15,830 --> 01:41:14,719
say almost nothing there's several

2612
01:41:17,510 --> 01:41:15,840
subfields

2613
01:41:19,669 --> 01:41:17,520
you can be at the top of

2614
01:41:21,270 --> 01:41:19,679
string theory and know virtually nothing

2615
01:41:23,510 --> 01:41:21,280
about the developments in your closest

2616
01:41:26,310 --> 01:41:23,520
competitor loop quantum gravity and this

2617
01:41:27,830 --> 01:41:26,320
was evidence when david gross spoke to

2618
01:41:29,669 --> 01:41:27,840
carla rivelli

2619
01:41:31,430 --> 01:41:29,679
philip o says

2620
01:41:33,109 --> 01:41:31,440
did you say that you want to interview

2621
01:41:35,350 --> 01:41:33,119
lester out someday or did i dream that

2622
01:41:38,070 --> 01:41:35,360
ah that would be an epic crossover i'm a

2623
01:41:40,550 --> 01:41:38,080
huge fan of him since i was a

2624
01:41:41,990 --> 01:41:40,560
child i did an interview philip with les

2625
01:41:43,910 --> 01:41:42,000
and i'll put the link in the description

2626
01:41:46,070 --> 01:41:43,920
also put a thumbnail here

2627
01:41:47,990 --> 01:41:46,080
chase says kurt have you considered your

2628
01:41:49,750 --> 01:41:48,000
inability to leave your mind and attend

2629
01:41:51,590 --> 01:41:49,760
to the things around you that is less of

2630
01:41:53,830 --> 01:41:51,600
a left brain issue and perhaps an issue

2631
01:41:55,990 --> 01:41:53,840
to be fleshed out in in therapy and

2632
01:42:03,430 --> 01:41:56,000
psychoanalysis

2633
01:42:08,870 --> 01:42:06,070
i am able to leave my mind

2634
01:42:11,750 --> 01:42:08,880
now occasionally it happens it's rare it

2635
01:42:12,830 --> 01:42:11,760
happens more often

2636
01:42:15,750 --> 01:42:12,840
more and more

2637
01:42:17,109 --> 01:42:15,760
often willfully

2638
01:42:20,229 --> 01:42:17,119
and

2639
01:42:22,149 --> 01:42:20,239
sometimes even without will then well

2640
01:42:24,390 --> 01:42:22,159
i'm considering many options tiffany

2641
01:42:25,830 --> 01:42:24,400
says tiffany curly says do we require a

2642
01:42:27,270 --> 01:42:25,840
new religion to get us through the

2643
01:42:29,750 --> 01:42:27,280
current storm

2644
01:42:31,270 --> 01:42:29,760
or perhaps tiffany and a new look at

2645
01:42:34,310 --> 01:42:31,280
existing religion

2646
01:42:36,070 --> 01:42:34,320
moses says my question

2647
01:42:39,510 --> 01:42:36,080
and this is a profound one why do you

2648
01:42:41,030 --> 01:42:39,520
have the same voice as tom cruise

2649
01:42:42,950 --> 01:42:41,040
now that's a first

2650
01:42:45,910 --> 01:42:42,960
moses

2651
01:42:48,229 --> 01:42:45,920
debboni debody says kurt on the ama can

2652
01:42:50,390 --> 01:42:48,239
you do a little digging on google about

2653
01:42:51,669 --> 01:42:50,400
creating a time crystal

2654
01:42:53,189 --> 01:42:51,679
a new phase of matter has been

2655
01:42:56,870 --> 01:42:53,199
discovered and newton's second law is

2656
01:42:59,510 --> 01:42:56,880
now destroyed compelling and so on

2657
01:43:01,750 --> 01:42:59,520
i i haven't looked into that

2658
01:43:03,590 --> 01:43:01,760
i tend to not look into what's in the

2659
01:43:04,790 --> 01:43:03,600
news scientifically like scientific

2660
01:43:05,750 --> 01:43:04,800
america

2661
01:43:07,030 --> 01:43:05,760
because

2662
01:43:10,149 --> 01:43:07,040
there are

2663
01:43:11,910 --> 01:43:10,159
on a weekly basis some

2664
01:43:14,070 --> 01:43:11,920
announcements about a large physical

2665
01:43:16,070 --> 01:43:14,080
breakthrough or some new measurement of

2666
01:43:17,510 --> 01:43:16,080
some mass of some particle and it breaks

2667
01:43:19,189 --> 01:43:17,520
all the laws

2668
01:43:20,950 --> 01:43:19,199
and then

2669
01:43:23,270 --> 01:43:20,960
when one looks into the result or the

2670
01:43:25,830 --> 01:43:23,280
results been replicated if

2671
01:43:27,030 --> 01:43:25,840
with more accuracy the discrepancy goes

2672
01:43:28,310 --> 01:43:27,040
away

2673
01:43:30,470 --> 01:43:28,320
because of this i don't pay much

2674
01:43:31,990 --> 01:43:30,480
attention to what's occurring and i have

2675
01:43:33,990 --> 01:43:32,000
plenty on my plate already there are

2676
01:43:36,629 --> 01:43:34,000
plenty of

2677
01:43:39,189 --> 01:43:36,639
puzzles with the existing paradigms

2678
01:43:42,070 --> 01:43:39,199
number two says when are you going to

2679
01:43:45,830 --> 01:43:42,080
interview daniel then diana pasulka i've

2680
01:43:47,510 --> 01:43:45,840
already done so and again thumbnail here

2681
01:43:51,270 --> 01:43:47,520
and i'll just read from the description

2682
01:43:53,830 --> 01:43:51,280
that i that i wrote for diana pasulka

2683
01:43:55,830 --> 01:43:53,840
the recent interview with diana is one

2684
01:43:57,590 --> 01:43:55,840
that i'm particularly proud of why

2685
01:43:59,270 --> 01:43:57,600
broadly speaking there are two subsets

2686
01:44:01,830 --> 01:43:59,280
of the toe audience those interested

2687
01:44:03,510 --> 01:44:01,840
heavily in the philosophical material

2688
01:44:06,070 --> 01:44:03,520
physics b

2689
01:44:07,030 --> 01:44:06,080
those interested in the ufo oriented

2690
01:44:08,629 --> 01:44:07,040
content

2691
01:44:11,109 --> 01:44:08,639
while these groups

2692
01:44:12,629 --> 01:44:11,119
overlap substantially what's distinct

2693
01:44:14,950 --> 01:44:12,639
about the diana episode is that it

2694
01:44:17,350 --> 01:44:14,960
merges both perspicuously and

2695
01:44:19,430 --> 01:44:17,360
beautifully in fact i blatantly didn't

2696
01:44:21,109 --> 01:44:19,440
put a ufo tag in the title or the

2697
01:44:23,350 --> 01:44:21,119
thumbnail if you're interested in

2698
01:44:25,030 --> 01:44:23,360
religion and philosophy then this deep

2699
01:44:27,109 --> 01:44:25,040
dive is one of the best on toe for

2700
01:44:29,910 --> 01:44:27,119
audience a that is the

2701
01:44:32,229 --> 01:44:29,920
philosophical physics related

2702
01:44:33,910 --> 01:44:32,239
subset while showing how it intersects

2703
01:44:35,590 --> 01:44:33,920
with the quote-unquote phenomenon which

2704
01:44:37,669 --> 01:44:35,600
is aligned with audience b this will

2705
01:44:39,830 --> 01:44:37,679
introduce new topics and models of

2706
01:44:42,470 --> 01:44:39,840
thinking to each group though again a

2707
01:44:44,229 --> 01:44:42,480
and b are not mutually exclusive the

2708
01:44:46,470 --> 01:44:44,239
conversation with diana was filled with

2709
01:44:48,629 --> 01:44:46,480
such mutual respect and love akin to the

2710
01:44:51,669 --> 01:44:48,639
carlo revelli episode especially when we

2711
01:44:53,910 --> 01:44:51,679
are gushing over heidegger i see the toe

2712
01:44:55,910 --> 01:44:53,920
project as an extension of heidegger's

2713
01:44:58,070 --> 01:44:55,920
main themes and i consider him to be a

2714
01:44:59,590 --> 01:44:58,080
row what is a row

2715
01:45:00,870 --> 01:44:59,600
it's an internal name i have i actually

2716
01:45:03,910 --> 01:45:00,880
haven't said this

2717
01:45:05,189 --> 01:45:03,920
aloud yet it's an internal name that's

2718
01:45:06,629 --> 01:45:05,199
false i mean

2719
01:45:09,109 --> 01:45:06,639
i've said it aloud it hasn't been

2720
01:45:11,510 --> 01:45:09,119
published it's an internal name that i

2721
01:45:13,430 --> 01:45:11,520
have for resiners of existence which

2722
01:45:16,229 --> 01:45:13,440
i'll expand upon more in an upcoming ama

2723
01:45:17,669 --> 01:45:16,239
which is this i'll do so shortly it's a

2724
01:45:19,510 --> 01:45:17,679
name that i have for the types of people

2725
01:45:21,030 --> 01:45:19,520
who are trying to understand reality who

2726
01:45:23,510 --> 01:45:21,040
don't scorn other approaches like

2727
01:45:26,070 --> 01:45:23,520
secular or religion or religious

2728
01:45:27,270 --> 01:45:26,080
traditions they include yoshibak

2729
01:45:30,870 --> 01:45:27,280
castro

2730
01:45:33,189 --> 01:45:30,880
levin donald hoffman and so on and so on

2731
01:45:36,229 --> 01:45:33,199
okay so rezner what is a rezner it's a

2732
01:45:38,550 --> 01:45:36,239
french term and it's a term of art

2733
01:45:40,149 --> 01:45:38,560
which means the person who voices the

2734
01:45:41,990 --> 01:45:40,159
central theme philosophy or point of

2735
01:45:43,350 --> 01:45:42,000
view of a work of

2736
01:45:47,430 --> 01:45:43,360
of

2737
01:45:49,510 --> 01:45:47,440
generally you see this in movies when

2738
01:45:51,910 --> 01:45:49,520
someone toward the end of the film

2739
01:45:53,750 --> 01:45:51,920
encapsulates what the

2740
01:45:55,430 --> 01:45:53,760
motif was of the film or the point of

2741
01:45:57,750 --> 01:45:55,440
the film was

2742
01:45:58,870 --> 01:45:57,760
and does so beautifully they often do so

2743
01:46:00,470 --> 01:45:58,880
as if they're speaking to another

2744
01:46:02,229 --> 01:46:00,480
character but you can tell it's it's

2745
01:46:05,030 --> 01:46:02,239
exposition for us as the audience

2746
01:46:06,470 --> 01:46:05,040
members passively viewing it

2747
01:46:09,189 --> 01:46:06,480
if it's written well it wouldn't seem

2748
01:46:11,830 --> 01:46:09,910
so

2749
01:46:13,750 --> 01:46:11,840
why do i call them resinors of existence

2750
01:46:16,390 --> 01:46:13,760
well one can think of this like a play

2751
01:46:17,270 --> 01:46:16,400
in some sense the story of life

2752
01:46:18,629 --> 01:46:17,280
and

2753
01:46:20,310 --> 01:46:18,639
i feel like there

2754
01:46:22,950 --> 01:46:20,320
aren't many people who are

2755
01:46:25,510 --> 01:46:22,960
deeply wrestling or contending with what

2756
01:46:27,030 --> 01:46:25,520
existence is because most academics feel

2757
01:46:28,950 --> 01:46:27,040
like well

2758
01:46:30,870 --> 01:46:28,960
it's ill-defined it's nebulous you

2759
01:46:33,270 --> 01:46:30,880
shouldn't even think about it if it's if

2760
01:46:35,510 --> 01:46:33,280
it's unclear what it means

2761
01:46:36,310 --> 01:46:35,520
but yet there are people like yoshibak

2762
01:46:46,229 --> 01:46:36,320
and

2763
01:46:49,510 --> 01:46:46,239
i'd say they're investigating

2764
01:46:51,669 --> 01:46:49,520
fundamental reality from an extremely

2765
01:46:54,310 --> 01:46:51,679
originative perspective they don't have

2766
01:46:56,470 --> 01:46:54,320
a disdain for non-secular spirituality

2767
01:46:58,550 --> 01:46:56,480
which is also rare they have developed

2768
01:47:00,709 --> 01:46:58,560
their point of view

2769
01:47:02,550 --> 01:47:00,719
pretty much singularly and they also

2770
01:47:05,350 --> 01:47:02,560
have a flare for rigor so that's the

2771
01:47:06,790 --> 01:47:05,360
four conditions that i have for a row

2772
01:47:07,910 --> 01:47:06,800
another way that i think about it is in

2773
01:47:09,910 --> 01:47:07,920
mathematics there's something called

2774
01:47:11,189 --> 01:47:09,920
associativity so there's commutativity

2775
01:47:13,430 --> 01:47:11,199
i'm sure you've heard of x times y is

2776
01:47:15,030 --> 01:47:13,440
not the same as y times x always when

2777
01:47:17,109 --> 01:47:15,040
they are they're commutative then

2778
01:47:19,030 --> 01:47:17,119
there's associativity which which has to

2779
01:47:20,390 --> 01:47:19,040
do with placing brackets around

2780
01:47:22,950 --> 01:47:20,400
the objects and saying that you can

2781
01:47:25,910 --> 01:47:22,960
place brackets anywhere so

2782
01:47:27,189 --> 01:47:25,920
as an aside chris fields believes that

2783
01:47:30,149 --> 01:47:27,199
because quantum mechanics has

2784
01:47:32,229 --> 01:47:30,159
associativity in it it implies that

2785
01:47:35,590 --> 01:47:32,239
observers and self and so on are

2786
01:47:36,709 --> 01:47:35,600
illusory or could be made to be

2787
01:47:39,270 --> 01:47:36,719
could be made to have flexible

2788
01:47:41,189 --> 01:47:39,280
boundaries but that's

2789
01:47:42,870 --> 01:47:41,199
that's not always true there are

2790
01:47:44,310 --> 01:47:42,880
formulations of quantum mechanics and

2791
01:47:46,310 --> 01:47:44,320
there are unifications of quantum

2792
01:47:48,149 --> 01:47:46,320
mechanics and general relativity which

2793
01:47:50,390 --> 01:47:48,159
are based in the octonians which are

2794
01:47:52,870 --> 01:47:50,400
non-associative so you can't place the

2795
01:47:54,709 --> 01:47:52,880
brackets anywhere a times b bracketed

2796
01:47:57,109 --> 01:47:54,719
times c is not the same as

2797
01:47:59,189 --> 01:47:57,119
a bracket b times c bracket close

2798
01:48:00,950 --> 01:47:59,199
bracket i'm speaking to someone shortly

2799
01:48:03,669 --> 01:48:00,960
named to jinder singh who has an

2800
01:48:05,910 --> 01:48:03,679
octahonic metal meter sorry

2801
01:48:07,510 --> 01:48:05,920
has an octanic

2802
01:48:09,910 --> 01:48:07,520
model of the

2803
01:48:11,830 --> 01:48:09,920
of unification

2804
01:48:14,070 --> 01:48:11,840
regardless the point of this was to make

2805
01:48:16,310 --> 01:48:14,080
the analogy that i view the

2806
01:48:20,629 --> 01:48:16,320
rows the resonance of existence as a

2807
01:48:23,510 --> 01:48:20,639
non-associative philosophical rat pack

2808
01:48:26,950 --> 01:48:25,350
it's complicated to

2809
01:48:27,990 --> 01:48:26,960
to explain more about what that means so

2810
01:48:29,270 --> 01:48:28,000
hopefully

2811
01:48:30,390 --> 01:48:29,280
this little

2812
01:48:31,669 --> 01:48:30,400
teaser has

2813
01:48:33,990 --> 01:48:31,679
has done so

2814
01:48:36,070 --> 01:48:34,000
oftentimes people ask me

2815
01:48:39,109 --> 01:48:36,080
hey you should interview this person or

2816
01:48:42,229 --> 01:48:39,119
this person and and sure the choices in

2817
01:48:44,870 --> 01:48:42,239
my head come down to yes they have a toe

2818
01:48:47,750 --> 01:48:44,880
but are they a row

2819
01:48:50,149 --> 01:48:47,760
perhaps no

2820
01:48:51,590 --> 01:48:50,159
boris costello says haha man i'd love to

2821
01:48:53,590 --> 01:48:51,600
know how you get such

2822
01:48:54,870 --> 01:48:53,600
a rich vocabulary coming from math and

2823
01:48:57,669 --> 01:48:54,880
physics

2824
01:48:59,990 --> 01:48:57,679
i i don't boris thank you i'm constantly

2825
01:49:02,470 --> 01:49:00,000
struggling i appreciate the compliment

2826
01:49:03,750 --> 01:49:02,480
it's undeserved

2827
01:49:21,350 --> 01:49:03,760
i

2828
01:49:24,790 --> 01:49:21,360
huge amounts of hearty hood

2829
01:49:26,830 --> 01:49:24,800
courage valor and so on or they are

2830
01:49:28,550 --> 01:49:26,840
or i'm greatly unskilled

2831
01:49:30,310 --> 01:49:28,560
or

2832
01:49:32,070 --> 01:49:30,320
they're saying someone else's thoughts

2833
01:49:33,590 --> 01:49:32,080
and it's and the reason i say that is

2834
01:49:35,590 --> 01:49:33,600
because it's extremely extremely

2835
01:49:37,430 --> 01:49:35,600
difficult to think for oneself it's

2836
01:49:38,709 --> 01:49:37,440
extremely difficult

2837
01:49:40,470 --> 01:49:38,719
it takes me

2838
01:49:43,030 --> 01:49:40,480
me

2839
01:49:44,390 --> 01:49:43,040
for instance many minutes to articulate

2840
01:49:47,510 --> 01:49:44,400
sometimes a single thought that i feel

2841
01:49:51,430 --> 01:49:50,149
by the way boris is

2842
01:49:52,709 --> 01:49:51,440
someone that

2843
01:49:54,310 --> 01:49:52,719
who

2844
01:49:56,070 --> 01:49:54,320
has been a fan of the theories of

2845
01:49:57,830 --> 01:49:56,080
everything channel for a while and then

2846
01:49:59,189 --> 01:49:57,840
messaged me on

2847
01:50:01,590 --> 01:49:59,199
message me and said hey kurt i would

2848
01:50:03,189 --> 01:50:01,600
love to invite you out to

2849
01:50:04,390 --> 01:50:03,199
to montreal and take

2850
01:50:08,149 --> 01:50:04,400
photos

2851
01:50:11,030 --> 01:50:08,159
of you because i'm a cg artist and i do

2852
01:50:13,030 --> 01:50:11,040
compositing and here's some of my work

2853
01:50:14,870 --> 01:50:13,040
and i looked at it and it was

2854
01:50:17,750 --> 01:50:14,880
absolutely gorgeous

2855
01:50:19,590 --> 01:50:17,760
and here's his instagram for people who

2856
01:50:20,950 --> 01:50:19,600
would like to use boris for their

2857
01:50:23,270 --> 01:50:20,960
upcoming shoots

2858
01:50:26,070 --> 01:50:23,280
he has worked on marvel films and star

2859
01:50:29,590 --> 01:50:26,080
wars films and continues to do so his

2860
01:50:33,030 --> 01:50:29,600
instagram is at gaelic pic so that is at

2861
01:50:37,030 --> 01:50:34,550
and his linkedin will be put in the

2862
01:50:38,470 --> 01:50:37,040
description as well i recommend you

2863
01:50:40,229 --> 01:50:38,480
subscribe or

2864
01:50:42,310 --> 01:50:40,239
follow i'm unsure of how instagram works

2865
01:50:46,149 --> 01:50:42,320
what the terminology is

2866
01:50:47,109 --> 01:50:46,159
his work because it's

2867
01:50:52,470 --> 01:50:47,119
it's

2868
01:50:54,550 --> 01:50:52,480
combination of both

2869
01:50:56,550 --> 01:50:54,560
thank you again boris it was great to

2870
01:50:58,550 --> 01:50:56,560
meet you and

2871
01:51:00,229 --> 01:50:58,560
soon those photos will come onto the tow

2872
01:51:02,629 --> 01:51:00,239
channel and i'll place them somewhere

2873
01:51:04,870 --> 01:51:02,639
maybe i'll do a special video about them

2874
01:51:06,870 --> 01:51:04,880
crescendo both says when are you

2875
01:51:08,870 --> 01:51:06,880
interviewing chiara marletto so whenever

2876
01:51:11,510 --> 01:51:08,880
she responds to my emails and again

2877
01:51:14,310 --> 01:51:11,520
similarly to anna kramer for stephen

2878
01:51:17,270 --> 01:51:14,320
greer feel free to email chara

2879
01:51:18,709 --> 01:51:17,280
chiara marletto and let her know that

2880
01:51:19,990 --> 01:51:18,719
hey perhaps you should come on the toe

2881
01:51:22,550 --> 01:51:20,000
channel it would be great i would love

2882
01:51:25,030 --> 01:51:22,560
to see you there every email to someone

2883
01:51:27,669 --> 01:51:25,040
else does help because often mine either

2884
01:51:29,109 --> 01:51:27,679
goes to spam or they're flooded with

2885
01:51:31,030 --> 01:51:29,119
many requests that they have to see it

2886
01:51:33,669 --> 01:51:31,040
repeated in order for them to feel like

2887
01:51:35,510 --> 01:51:33,679
it's worth it

2888
01:51:37,830 --> 01:51:35,520
mr rahman says how difficult is it for

2889
01:51:39,910 --> 01:51:37,840
you to manage remaining true to the

2890
01:51:40,870 --> 01:51:39,920
original idea of toe meaning having

2891
01:51:45,350 --> 01:51:40,880
guests

2892
01:51:47,990 --> 01:51:45,360
and mathematicians or the top rated

2893
01:51:49,910 --> 01:51:48,000
videos of the study of ufo phenomenon

2894
01:51:52,390 --> 01:51:49,920
there's an obvious monetary difference

2895
01:51:53,990 --> 01:51:52,400
with these as well

2896
01:51:57,669 --> 01:51:54,000
i found your channel

2897
01:51:59,910 --> 01:51:57,679
the uap studies i imagine that this is a

2898
01:52:01,669 --> 01:51:59,920
struggle for a successful

2899
01:52:02,629 --> 01:52:01,679
youtuber such as yourself

2900
01:52:05,830 --> 01:52:02,639
well

2901
01:52:07,430 --> 01:52:05,840
mr rahman thank you for

2902
01:52:09,270 --> 01:52:07,440
i appreciate you calling me successful

2903
01:52:10,390 --> 01:52:09,280
that it doesn't feel like it but i

2904
01:52:14,629 --> 01:52:10,400
appreciate

2905
01:52:16,870 --> 01:52:14,639
that or

2906
01:52:18,310 --> 01:52:16,880
whatever it may be it's false to think

2907
01:52:19,910 --> 01:52:18,320
that there's more money

2908
01:52:21,189 --> 01:52:19,920
in the ufo

2909
01:52:22,629 --> 01:52:21,199
topic

2910
01:52:25,589 --> 01:52:22,639
actually there's

2911
01:52:28,870 --> 01:52:25,599
far more money in the

2912
01:52:31,430 --> 01:52:28,880
topics of well i in two more topics that

2913
01:52:33,589 --> 01:52:31,440
i won't say in fact i've been offered

2914
01:52:34,950 --> 01:52:33,599
money to interview people

2915
01:52:36,470 --> 01:52:34,960
and i don't

2916
01:52:38,629 --> 01:52:36,480
in at least one of the cases where

2917
01:52:41,430 --> 01:52:38,639
someone has offered me money it's it was

2918
01:52:43,750 --> 01:52:41,440
more money than i had made at

2919
01:52:45,990 --> 01:52:43,760
in my entire life for any single year

2920
01:52:48,870 --> 01:52:46,000
it's more money than any

2921
01:52:50,550 --> 01:52:48,880
single year of my annual income

2922
01:52:52,709 --> 01:52:50,560
at least up until that point and i was

2923
01:52:55,510 --> 01:52:52,719
fairly recently

2924
01:52:57,030 --> 01:52:55,520
and i choose not to do so it took almost

2925
01:52:59,430 --> 01:52:57,040
everything for me i remember debating it

2926
01:53:01,510 --> 01:52:59,440
for for weeks and weeks with my wife

2927
01:53:04,709 --> 01:53:01,520
should i do so but it just felt

2928
01:53:06,470 --> 01:53:04,719
incorrect to go down a route purely for

2929
01:53:08,390 --> 01:53:06,480
the money it's another reason why i say

2930
01:53:10,229 --> 01:53:08,400
and i'm like i'm pretending this is all

2931
01:53:12,149 --> 01:53:10,239
selfless it's not it's

2932
01:53:13,750 --> 01:53:12,159
it's hopefully what i'm doing is for the

2933
01:53:15,669 --> 01:53:13,760
long term so it's selfish in the sense

2934
01:53:18,070 --> 01:53:15,679
that i think it's better in the long run

2935
01:53:19,830 --> 01:53:18,080
but like i mentioned there's time stamps

2936
01:53:20,870 --> 01:53:19,840
the reason is that i feel like

2937
01:53:22,870 --> 01:53:20,880
building

2938
01:53:25,910 --> 01:53:22,880
a great relationship with the audience

2939
01:53:28,550 --> 01:53:25,920
and being authentic and ingenuous in the

2940
01:53:30,629 --> 01:53:28,560
long run will be

2941
01:53:33,030 --> 01:53:30,639
what serves the quote-unquote success

2942
01:53:34,550 --> 01:53:33,040
that you refer to earlier

2943
01:53:36,709 --> 01:53:34,560
saying being true to the original idea

2944
01:53:37,910 --> 01:53:36,719
of the toe that's an interesting way of

2945
01:53:43,510 --> 01:53:37,920
of

2946
01:53:45,510 --> 01:53:43,520
understand sorry the toe channel but to

2947
01:53:46,950 --> 01:53:45,520
understand the universe almost each

2948
01:53:49,589 --> 01:53:46,960
scientist would agree that finding life

2949
01:53:51,109 --> 01:53:49,599
like microbial life would be one of the

2950
01:53:53,430 --> 01:53:51,119
most groundbreaking

2951
01:53:55,350 --> 01:53:53,440
discoveries of the entire

2952
01:53:57,910 --> 01:53:55,360
of humanity

2953
01:54:00,790 --> 01:53:57,920
and that's just microbial single-celled

2954
01:54:02,629 --> 01:54:00,800
life what if something more drastic is

2955
01:54:04,550 --> 01:54:02,639
occurring far closer what would the

2956
01:54:06,070 --> 01:54:04,560
implications be for how we understand

2957
01:54:08,790 --> 01:54:06,080
ourselves what about for physics what

2958
01:54:11,510 --> 01:54:08,800
about for philosophy it's if that's not

2959
01:54:13,189 --> 01:54:11,520
aligned with toe then i'm unsure what's

2960
01:54:15,350 --> 01:54:13,199
aligned with toe we may have different

2961
01:54:17,430 --> 01:54:15,360
ideas as to what it as to what the

2962
01:54:19,350 --> 01:54:17,440
greatest mysteries in the world may be

2963
01:54:21,589 --> 01:54:19,360
and some people say like diana pasoka i

2964
01:54:23,430 --> 01:54:21,599
heard her say this and i dislike this i

2965
01:54:25,669 --> 01:54:23,440
i'm gonna have a little bit of a bone to

2966
01:54:27,910 --> 01:54:25,679
pick with her i mean this gently diana

2967
01:54:29,750 --> 01:54:27,920
if you're watching this

2968
01:54:30,950 --> 01:54:29,760
she and someone like gary has also said

2969
01:54:33,189 --> 01:54:30,960
this too

2970
01:54:34,870 --> 01:54:33,199
she'll say something like okay i'll i'll

2971
01:54:37,189 --> 01:54:34,880
answer the following question but let me

2972
01:54:40,470 --> 01:54:37,199
do so as a

2973
01:54:43,109 --> 01:54:40,480
as a person rather than as a professor

2974
01:54:44,390 --> 01:54:43,119
and then she'll give some sweet generous

2975
01:54:46,629 --> 01:54:44,400
perspective

2976
01:54:48,870 --> 01:54:46,639
and the reason why i dislike that is

2977
01:54:51,350 --> 01:54:48,880
because

2978
01:54:53,030 --> 01:54:51,360
ostensibly the

2979
01:54:55,750 --> 01:54:53,040
well they're afraid of having their wild

2980
01:54:57,270 --> 01:54:55,760
attitude taint them as a scholar but to

2981
01:54:59,430 --> 01:54:57,280
me

2982
01:55:02,550 --> 01:54:59,440
one's professorship their scholarship

2983
01:55:04,629 --> 01:55:02,560
entails that one should speak

2984
01:55:06,470 --> 01:55:04,639
honestly and not try to

2985
01:55:08,709 --> 01:55:06,480
just say what's in the

2986
01:55:10,629 --> 01:55:08,719
perimeter or the accepted boundaries of

2987
01:55:13,430 --> 01:55:10,639
discourse and they should allow

2988
01:55:15,270 --> 01:55:13,440
authentic speculation encourage it and

2989
01:55:17,430 --> 01:55:15,280
put oneself on the line with an

2990
01:55:18,470 --> 01:55:17,440
unorthodox view because you have tenure

2991
01:55:21,109 --> 01:55:18,480
for example

2992
01:55:23,430 --> 01:55:21,119
and to play devil's advocate to even the

2993
01:55:25,589 --> 01:55:23,440
most untenable positions to me that's

2994
01:55:27,430 --> 01:55:25,599
what a professor should do so when one

2995
01:55:29,669 --> 01:55:27,440
then says well let me

2996
01:55:32,629 --> 01:55:29,679
take off my professor hat and put on the

2997
01:55:34,790 --> 01:55:32,639
person hat or the diana hat the regular

2998
01:55:35,750 --> 01:55:34,800
gary hat or whatever it may be to me

2999
01:55:37,430 --> 01:55:35,760
that's

3000
01:55:39,189 --> 01:55:37,440
a relinquishing of what it means to be a

3001
01:55:40,390 --> 01:55:39,199
professor and i understand what they're

3002
01:55:41,910 --> 01:55:40,400
saying they don't want people to think

3003
01:55:43,750 --> 01:55:41,920
that they're speaking based on the

3004
01:55:46,470 --> 01:55:43,760
evidence that they've acquired during

3005
01:55:48,709 --> 01:55:46,480
their scholarly research but i also

3006
01:55:50,390 --> 01:55:48,719
think that it gives the wrong impression

3007
01:55:52,149 --> 01:55:50,400
of what i could of what the academy

3008
01:55:54,950 --> 01:55:52,159
should be about and then the question is

3009
01:55:57,189 --> 01:55:54,960
well to what extent does one speculate i

3010
01:55:57,990 --> 01:55:57,199
talk about this with

3011
01:56:01,030 --> 01:55:58,000
with

3012
01:56:03,030 --> 01:56:01,040
generation zed that

3013
01:56:05,510 --> 01:56:03,040
while i talk about speculation and the

3014
01:56:08,390 --> 01:56:05,520
salutary components of speculation

3015
01:56:10,709 --> 01:56:08,400
the next question comes from ma7 can you

3016
01:56:12,310 --> 01:56:10,719
do a video where you distill

3017
01:56:13,910 --> 01:56:12,320
conclusions from all the interviews that

3018
01:56:16,070 --> 01:56:13,920
you've had by now i imagine that you've

3019
01:56:18,229 --> 01:56:16,080
been exposed to the most interesting

3020
01:56:21,589 --> 01:56:18,239
tools and have developed your own

3021
01:56:22,950 --> 01:56:21,599
maybe a reconciled version or or basic

3022
01:56:25,109 --> 01:56:22,960
outlines

3023
01:56:29,030 --> 01:56:25,119
so the crash course on physics which

3024
01:56:31,830 --> 01:56:29,040
somewhere is somewhere along here took a

3025
01:56:33,990 --> 01:56:31,840
huge amount of time to record and write

3026
01:56:36,229 --> 01:56:34,000
and i don't know when the

3027
01:56:38,149 --> 01:56:36,239
the next video is that i'll do akin to

3028
01:56:40,790 --> 01:56:38,159
that because i don't particularly like

3029
01:56:43,350 --> 01:56:40,800
lecturing or giving lessons and you're

3030
01:56:44,149 --> 01:56:43,360
asking me for what i've developed i'm i

3031
01:56:49,910 --> 01:56:44,159
i

3032
01:56:52,229 --> 01:56:49,920
knowledge

3033
01:56:54,870 --> 01:56:52,239
even this ama by the way takes weeks and

3034
01:56:56,709 --> 01:56:54,880
weeks because i have to decock to my

3035
01:56:58,149 --> 01:56:56,719
thoughts and it means i have to wade

3036
01:56:59,109 --> 01:56:58,159
through

3037
01:57:03,189 --> 01:56:59,119
muck

3038
01:57:05,750 --> 01:57:03,199
articulated thought

3039
01:57:07,350 --> 01:57:05,760
dharma matar says have you tried getting

3040
01:57:09,589 --> 01:57:07,360
eric davis

3041
01:57:11,510 --> 01:57:09,599
for an interview yes i'm working on that

3042
01:57:13,030 --> 01:57:11,520
kenneth wilbur says

3043
01:57:15,270 --> 01:57:13,040
i wonder if that's

3044
01:57:17,830 --> 01:57:15,280
okay kurt what subject if any is

3045
01:57:20,550 --> 01:57:17,840
entirely untouched by the toe channel

3046
01:57:22,310 --> 01:57:20,560
would you like to discuss and why so

3047
01:57:24,629 --> 01:57:22,320
i would like to discuss adhd and

3048
01:57:26,790 --> 01:57:24,639
learning because those are meta aspects

3049
01:57:28,149 --> 01:57:26,800
of a toe so some toes

3050
01:57:30,709 --> 01:57:28,159
people who have toes like to use the

3051
01:57:33,030 --> 01:57:30,719
word meta frequently and i'd say that

3052
01:57:36,229 --> 01:57:33,040
there's a meta meta toe which is about

3053
01:57:38,390 --> 01:57:36,239
learning the learning of a toe

3054
01:57:40,149 --> 01:57:38,400
at least the more especially the more

3055
01:57:43,030 --> 01:57:40,159
physical toes and perhaps even the

3056
01:57:44,709 --> 01:57:43,040
experiential ones which need to be

3057
01:57:46,629 --> 01:57:44,719
well the experiential ones they say that

3058
01:57:47,669 --> 01:57:46,639
you need to learn and unlearn i love

3059
01:57:49,510 --> 01:57:47,679
this

3060
01:57:51,430 --> 01:57:49,520
parable of i don't know if it comes from

3061
01:57:53,109 --> 01:57:51,440
lao tzu but someone said can you teach

3062
01:57:54,709 --> 01:57:53,119
me and then someone said sure i'll teach

3063
01:57:57,910 --> 01:57:54,719
you some zen master and he started

3064
01:58:00,229 --> 01:57:57,920
pouring tea and then the cup overfloweth

3065
01:58:01,510 --> 01:58:00,239
and kept overflowing

3066
01:58:02,550 --> 01:58:01,520
and the

3067
01:58:05,189 --> 01:58:02,560
student

3068
01:58:06,550 --> 01:58:05,199
was saying at some point after like 10

3069
01:58:08,550 --> 01:58:06,560
minutes said what are you doing stop

3070
01:58:09,510 --> 01:58:08,560
you're spilling it everywhere and then

3071
01:58:11,830 --> 01:58:09,520
the

3072
01:58:14,149 --> 01:58:11,840
zen master said

3073
01:58:16,070 --> 01:58:14,159
that's like your mind

3074
01:58:18,470 --> 01:58:16,080
that you're coming to me to learn but

3075
01:58:20,390 --> 01:58:18,480
your cup is already filled

3076
01:58:22,149 --> 01:58:20,400
you need to unlearn come to me when your

3077
01:58:24,149 --> 01:58:22,159
mind is empty

3078
01:58:26,070 --> 01:58:24,159
so that's why i said that perhaps the

3079
01:58:28,310 --> 01:58:26,080
experiential approach is also about

3080
01:58:29,270 --> 01:58:28,320
unlearning as much as it's about

3081
01:58:35,270 --> 01:58:29,280
learning

3082
01:58:38,390 --> 01:58:35,280
of adhd and so on and the practices that

3083
01:58:40,629 --> 01:58:38,400
one can employ as someone who's

3084
01:58:42,470 --> 01:58:40,639
learning challenged in this manner is

3085
01:58:44,790 --> 01:58:42,480
something that i would like to pursue on

3086
01:58:47,350 --> 01:58:44,800
the toe channel that i haven't this next

3087
01:58:49,910 --> 01:58:47,360
question comes from christoph benos is

3088
01:58:51,910 --> 01:58:49,920
there anything legitimate regarding ufos

3089
01:58:54,390 --> 01:58:51,920
any credible source

3090
01:58:56,390 --> 01:58:54,400
any links to anything tangible no of

3091
01:58:58,870 --> 01:58:56,400
course christos it depends on what one

3092
01:59:00,229 --> 01:58:58,880
means by ufo because plenty is

3093
01:59:01,430 --> 01:59:00,239
classified as

3094
01:59:02,790 --> 01:59:01,440
as such

3095
01:59:07,350 --> 01:59:02,800
i understand what you mean though and i

3096
01:59:11,910 --> 01:59:09,589
at least none not that's accessible to

3097
01:59:14,470 --> 01:59:11,920
the public there's nothing that is not

3098
01:59:19,830 --> 01:59:14,480
circumstantial evidence that the public

3099
01:59:24,390 --> 01:59:22,709
causal factors what's behind the ufos is

3100
01:59:27,430 --> 01:59:24,400
it's it's it's entities it's

3101
01:59:30,310 --> 01:59:27,440
precipitated by something that far

3102
01:59:32,310 --> 01:59:30,320
escapes our current understanding or our

3103
01:59:34,629 --> 01:59:32,320
phylogenetic tree it's either not a part

3104
01:59:36,310 --> 01:59:34,639
of it or it's from some aspect of it

3105
01:59:37,109 --> 01:59:36,320
that we don't currently understand or

3106
01:59:39,510 --> 01:59:37,119
have

3107
01:59:41,669 --> 01:59:39,520
a conception of the

3108
01:59:43,990 --> 01:59:41,679
circumstantial evidence that does exist

3109
01:59:45,830 --> 01:59:44,000
is plenty and i would say that it's more

3110
01:59:47,990 --> 01:59:45,840
so than

3111
01:59:50,070 --> 01:59:48,000
either amber heard or johnny depp had

3112
01:59:52,149 --> 01:59:50,080
against one another combined yet the

3113
01:59:54,149 --> 01:59:52,159
whole world seemed to have placed

3114
01:59:56,310 --> 01:59:54,159
themselves pertinaciously on one side of

3115
01:59:58,790 --> 01:59:56,320
the spectrum or one side of the aisle

3116
01:59:59,990 --> 01:59:58,800
there the world is uh

3117
02:00:01,990 --> 02:00:00,000
at least

3118
02:00:04,149 --> 02:00:02,000
well the more one investigates it the

3119
02:00:06,470 --> 02:00:04,159
world is a place of

3120
02:00:09,350 --> 02:00:06,480
of paradoxical complexity

3121
02:00:11,990 --> 02:00:09,360
and the familiar is an aberration

3122
02:00:14,390 --> 02:00:12,000
and so i don't hold the view that

3123
02:00:15,430 --> 02:00:14,400
ill-defined and esoteric topics

3124
02:00:17,510 --> 02:00:15,440
should be

3125
02:00:18,470 --> 02:00:17,520
viewed upon or explored

3126
02:00:21,030 --> 02:00:18,480
with

3127
02:00:22,149 --> 02:00:21,040
scorn or derision

3128
02:00:24,229 --> 02:00:22,159
and

3129
02:00:25,910 --> 02:00:24,239
it took me

3130
02:00:28,709 --> 02:00:25,920
years and years and years to realize

3131
02:00:30,790 --> 02:00:28,719
that my criticism that i felt like was

3132
02:00:32,790 --> 02:00:30,800
dispassionate and purely from a rational

3133
02:00:34,870 --> 02:00:32,800
perspective was from a place of of

3134
02:00:36,310 --> 02:00:34,880
arrogance i thought it came from a place

3135
02:00:37,990 --> 02:00:36,320
of reasoning

3136
02:00:39,990 --> 02:00:38,000
building up from quote-unquote first

3137
02:00:41,750 --> 02:00:40,000
principles i believe myself to be

3138
02:00:43,910 --> 02:00:41,760
operating from such a place but i'm

3139
02:00:46,470 --> 02:00:43,920
deeply skeptical of people who

3140
02:00:48,870 --> 02:00:46,480
haven't realized that about themselves i

3141
02:00:52,629 --> 02:00:48,880
know from personal experience how

3142
02:00:55,350 --> 02:00:52,639
delusive it can be to think that one is

3143
02:00:57,189 --> 02:00:55,360
operating from a position of a rational

3144
02:00:58,870 --> 02:00:57,199
standpoint when

3145
02:01:00,709 --> 02:00:58,880
virtually all the evidence that we have

3146
02:01:02,310 --> 02:01:00,719
is that

3147
02:01:04,950 --> 02:01:02,320
all the psychological evidence we have

3148
02:01:07,430 --> 02:01:04,960
is that that's decidedly not the case

3149
02:01:10,070 --> 02:01:07,440
we're far more we care far more about

3150
02:01:12,229 --> 02:01:10,080
our position on a social echelon than we

3151
02:01:14,070 --> 02:01:12,239
do about almost anything else

3152
02:01:15,990 --> 02:01:14,080
and so

3153
02:01:18,870 --> 02:01:16,000
well

3154
02:01:20,870 --> 02:01:18,880
that was a tangent and i appreciate the

3155
02:01:22,709 --> 02:01:20,880
question christos

3156
02:01:23,669 --> 02:01:22,719
ali says what would be the

3157
02:01:26,390 --> 02:01:23,679
what would be your thoughts on

3158
02:01:29,109 --> 02:01:26,400
metaphysics in the means of chaos and

3159
02:01:30,629 --> 02:01:29,119
accidents oriented essence of reality we

3160
02:01:32,229 --> 02:01:30,639
face now

3161
02:01:34,070 --> 02:01:32,239
and how would you eliminate absurdities

3162
02:01:35,910 --> 02:01:34,080
of living and truth if we take them as

3163
02:01:38,550 --> 02:01:35,920
the case take nietzsche take nietzsche

3164
02:01:40,950 --> 02:01:38,560
as your rival i'm sorry ali i don't

3165
02:01:42,790 --> 02:01:40,960
understand the question avesta says hey

3166
02:01:44,629 --> 02:01:42,800
dude have you heard of the e8 model so

3167
02:01:46,790 --> 02:01:44,639
yes that's someone from someone named

3168
02:01:49,109 --> 02:01:46,800
garrett lisa's model and at some point

3169
02:01:50,790 --> 02:01:49,119
this year hopefully i will be speaking

3170
02:01:51,589 --> 02:01:50,800
to him perhaps around the same time i

3171
02:01:53,910 --> 02:01:51,599
get

3172
02:01:58,070 --> 02:01:53,920
the chance to take a look at geometric

3173
02:01:59,830 --> 02:01:58,080
unity julian weinstein weinstein says to

3174
02:02:01,910 --> 02:01:59,840
know that consciousness is fundamental

3175
02:02:03,589 --> 02:02:01,920
must want to experience this directly is

3176
02:02:05,270 --> 02:02:03,599
there any way to

3177
02:02:07,510 --> 02:02:05,280
through words or logic realize that

3178
02:02:09,189 --> 02:02:07,520
space-time is not fundamental in other

3179
02:02:11,030 --> 02:02:09,199
and by the way about the

3180
02:02:13,750 --> 02:02:11,040
space-time not being fundamental much

3181
02:02:17,189 --> 02:02:13,760
ado is made about that and either

3182
02:02:19,270 --> 02:02:17,199
excoriates excoriating or venerating

3183
02:02:21,030 --> 02:02:19,280
donald hoffman but the majority of

3184
02:02:25,750 --> 02:02:21,040
physicists don't believe space-time to

3185
02:02:25,760 --> 02:02:29,350
outlandish to think so

3186
02:02:32,790 --> 02:02:30,629
okay lastly

3187
02:02:35,030 --> 02:02:32,800
what is required to grok this as an

3188
02:02:37,109 --> 02:02:35,040
altered state neural psychologically

3189
02:02:39,270 --> 02:02:37,119
neurophysiologically via psychoactive

3190
02:02:40,550 --> 02:02:39,280
substances and what does that say about

3191
02:02:42,149 --> 02:02:40,560
the causal power of the brain if

3192
02:02:43,750 --> 02:02:42,159
anything so i don't i don't know julian

3193
02:02:45,750 --> 02:02:43,760
i don't know the answer to your question

3194
02:02:48,229 --> 02:02:45,760
all i know is that the last sentence the

3195
02:02:51,750 --> 02:02:48,239
causal power of the brain has embedded

3196
02:02:52,550 --> 02:02:51,760
in it an assumption of what one is

3197
02:03:01,669 --> 02:02:52,560
is

3198
02:03:03,430 --> 02:03:01,679
manner than concluding mind independence

3199
02:03:06,070 --> 02:03:03,440
and all of this is a

3200
02:03:09,510 --> 02:03:06,080
place that all of this is a

3201
02:03:13,430 --> 02:03:11,350
treacherous domain because there are

3202
02:03:16,470 --> 02:03:13,440
enthymemes everywhere enthymemes being

3203
02:03:17,990 --> 02:03:16,480
these unstated assumptions that are so

3204
02:03:19,990 --> 02:03:18,000
embedded and subtle we don't realize

3205
02:03:22,229 --> 02:03:20,000
them that we've made them until years or

3206
02:03:24,149 --> 02:03:22,239
decades millennia later i believe many

3207
02:03:27,390 --> 02:03:24,159
many many of our philosophical problems

3208
02:03:30,070 --> 02:03:27,400
perhaps all of them are like that jojo

3209
02:03:32,149 --> 02:03:30,080
jojo752 says kurt i've been following

3210
02:03:34,149 --> 02:03:32,159
you for a while now and i'm glad you've

3211
02:03:35,510 --> 02:03:34,159
gained such a following congrats hey

3212
02:03:37,750 --> 02:03:35,520
thank you joe

3213
02:03:39,189 --> 02:03:37,760
my question is

3214
02:03:42,390 --> 02:03:39,199
as someone that generally listens to the

3215
02:03:43,990 --> 02:03:42,400
podcast not youtube is there any chance

3216
02:03:45,510 --> 02:03:44,000
you could have an email that accompanies

3217
02:03:47,270 --> 02:03:45,520
your interviews with slides there's a

3218
02:03:49,030 --> 02:03:47,280
collective attempt right now on the

3219
02:03:50,470 --> 02:03:49,040
discord so i'll place a link to the

3220
02:03:52,390 --> 02:03:50,480
discord somewhere

3221
02:03:54,229 --> 02:03:52,400
where people are making notes show notes

3222
02:03:57,109 --> 02:03:54,239
for every episode meticulous

3223
02:03:59,990 --> 02:03:57,119
meticulously i'm meticulously timestamp

3224
02:04:02,149 --> 02:04:00,000
they meticulously summate particularly

3225
02:04:04,790 --> 02:04:02,159
this person named or this user named

3226
02:04:07,750 --> 02:04:04,800
timecake i'll leave a link to all of

3227
02:04:10,390 --> 02:04:07,760
that in the description curbkilla says

3228
02:04:11,910 --> 02:04:10,400
what would you ask uh extra

3229
02:04:13,589 --> 02:04:11,920
extraterrestrial being as a first

3230
02:04:14,629 --> 02:04:13,599
question

3231
02:04:27,510 --> 02:04:14,639
if you were the first to get an

3232
02:04:31,350 --> 02:04:28,950
i don't know if i had one question

3233
02:04:32,709 --> 02:04:31,360
that's a bit too much pressure curb

3234
02:04:34,950 --> 02:04:32,719
killers i need to think about that some

3235
02:04:37,189 --> 02:04:34,960
more vincent marone said would you ever

3236
02:04:40,390 --> 02:04:37,199
consider taking your show on the road

3237
02:04:41,589 --> 02:04:40,400
now a live show a podcast a panel with

3238
02:04:44,390 --> 02:04:41,599
guests and

3239
02:04:47,589 --> 02:04:44,400
and a stage and so on that's in the

3240
02:04:50,070 --> 02:04:47,599
works i'm their plans exciting plans for

3241
02:04:52,149 --> 02:04:50,080
2022 like i mentioned especially 2023.

3242
02:04:54,070 --> 02:04:52,159
this next question says how would the

3243
02:04:56,070 --> 02:04:54,080
academic community react

3244
02:04:57,109 --> 02:04:56,080
to uaps being real if they were revealed

3245
02:04:59,270 --> 02:04:57,119
to be

3246
02:05:02,390 --> 02:04:59,280
well i think they would do so

3247
02:05:05,589 --> 02:05:03,510
i think that

3248
02:05:07,750 --> 02:05:05,599
they would have an initial disbelief and

3249
02:05:09,510 --> 02:05:07,760
then arrogance that uaps are obviously

3250
02:05:11,109 --> 02:05:09,520
quote-unquote real

3251
02:05:13,910 --> 02:05:11,119
and

3252
02:05:16,550 --> 02:05:13,920
they would lack any

3253
02:05:18,950 --> 02:05:16,560
reference to their previously

3254
02:05:20,709 --> 02:05:18,960
derogatory attitude

3255
02:05:23,830 --> 02:05:20,719
and

3256
02:05:25,030 --> 02:05:23,840
have no remorseful or little remorseful

3257
02:05:25,910 --> 02:05:25,040
recognition

3258
02:05:27,430 --> 02:05:25,920
for

3259
02:05:29,430 --> 02:05:27,440
those that they've contempt along the

3260
02:05:31,270 --> 02:05:29,440
way i don't have a username for you i'm

3261
02:05:33,350 --> 02:05:31,280
sorry but i think that they'll dismiss

3262
02:05:35,910 --> 02:05:33,360
they'll cavalierly dismiss those that

3263
02:05:37,830 --> 02:05:35,920
have believed in ufos prior to the

3264
02:05:39,589 --> 02:05:37,840
evidence quote-unquote being revealed as

3265
02:05:41,990 --> 02:05:39,599
hey you should only follow the evidence

3266
02:05:43,510 --> 02:05:42,000
and so they'll be further cemented the

3267
02:05:44,790 --> 02:05:43,520
the rationalist let's say i don't know

3268
02:05:46,870 --> 02:05:44,800
what else to call them the neil degrasse

3269
02:05:47,669 --> 02:05:46,880
tysons i don't mean to pick on neil i'm

3270
02:05:50,149 --> 02:05:47,679
just

3271
02:05:51,750 --> 02:05:50,159
i'm using him as an idol for the as a

3272
02:05:52,709 --> 02:05:51,760
representation of

3273
02:06:03,910 --> 02:05:52,719
the

3274
02:06:05,589 --> 02:06:03,920
doesn't matter that millions upon

3275
02:06:07,830 --> 02:06:05,599
millions of people had experiences with

3276
02:06:09,990 --> 02:06:07,840
these they had they had

3277
02:06:12,149 --> 02:06:10,000
great intuition sure but that needs to

3278
02:06:14,229 --> 02:06:12,159
be followed with a different with with

3279
02:06:16,870 --> 02:06:14,239
evidence and so on

3280
02:06:18,790 --> 02:06:16,880
i don't think there would be any apology

3281
02:06:21,830 --> 02:06:18,800
i don't think that there would be any

3282
02:06:24,629 --> 02:06:21,840
less disparagement i think that the ufo

3283
02:06:28,149 --> 02:06:24,639
community will get almost no credit for

3284
02:06:30,069 --> 02:06:28,159
being right about something so

3285
02:06:31,669 --> 02:06:30,079
so obtuse in the sense that it's so

3286
02:06:32,709 --> 02:06:31,679
unlikely at least with our current

3287
02:06:34,310 --> 02:06:32,719
paradigm

3288
02:06:35,990 --> 02:06:34,320
how the heck could you be so likely how

3289
02:06:38,790 --> 02:06:36,000
the heck could you follow something and

3290
02:06:40,470 --> 02:06:38,800
be so correct for so long without

3291
02:06:42,470 --> 02:06:40,480
meaning that there's something true

3292
02:06:44,310 --> 02:06:42,480
about the intuition that you've followed

3293
02:06:45,990 --> 02:06:44,320
or the experiences that you've had and

3294
02:06:47,510 --> 02:06:46,000
perhaps that means the scientific

3295
02:06:49,109 --> 02:06:47,520
community needs to expand what they

3296
02:06:52,229 --> 02:06:49,119
consider to be evidence or at least

3297
02:06:54,629 --> 02:06:52,239
expand what they consider to be

3298
02:06:56,950 --> 02:06:54,639
evidence for avenues for further

3299
02:06:59,669 --> 02:06:56,960
exploration of a different kind of

3300
02:07:00,470 --> 02:06:59,679
evidence concrete evidence and so on

3301
02:07:03,189 --> 02:07:00,480
well

3302
02:07:05,350 --> 02:07:03,199
stefan says would you like a cup of tea

3303
02:07:06,870 --> 02:07:05,360
i have mine here i appreciate it steven

3304
02:07:09,990 --> 02:07:06,880
it's cold now

3305
02:07:10,790 --> 02:07:10,000
extremely cold matriarch said how are

3306
02:07:19,510 --> 02:07:10,800
you

3307
02:07:21,430 --> 02:07:19,520
i love this question someone else wrote

3308
02:07:23,189 --> 02:07:21,440
as a comment and i hope that he starts

3309
02:07:24,950 --> 02:07:23,199
he referring to kurt i hope that kurt

3310
02:07:27,189 --> 02:07:24,960
starts

3311
02:07:35,830 --> 02:07:27,199
all his introductions like this

3312
02:07:43,669 --> 02:07:36,790
if you

3313
02:07:45,350 --> 02:07:43,679
i can explain this

3314
02:07:48,229 --> 02:07:45,360
quickly because it's getting extremely

3315
02:07:50,790 --> 02:07:48,239
late here if you were to ask people

3316
02:07:52,390 --> 02:07:50,800
to take a die so this is all i have

3317
02:07:53,830 --> 02:07:52,400
right now take a die imagine this is a

3318
02:07:54,629 --> 02:07:53,840
six

3319
02:07:56,790 --> 02:07:54,639
cube

3320
02:07:59,030 --> 02:07:56,800
actually

3321
02:08:00,950 --> 02:07:59,040
this so take a die it's gonna keep

3322
02:08:02,790 --> 02:08:00,960
beeping and beeping imagine these so it

3323
02:08:04,069 --> 02:08:02,800
says number six up here in the number

3324
02:08:06,229 --> 02:08:04,079
one down here they always add up to

3325
02:08:08,229 --> 02:08:06,239
seven if you're unaware of that fact you

3326
02:08:09,910 --> 02:08:08,239
need to be aware of that so then five

3327
02:08:11,669 --> 02:08:09,920
here would be met with a two on the

3328
02:08:14,390 --> 02:08:11,679
other side because all the numbers add

3329
02:08:15,750 --> 02:08:14,400
up to seven that are on antipodal points

3330
02:08:17,750 --> 02:08:15,760
so then the

3331
02:08:19,750 --> 02:08:17,760
experimenter says to you look you're

3332
02:08:21,030 --> 02:08:19,760
gonna roll this die it's gonna come up

3333
02:08:24,709 --> 02:08:21,040
with some number let's say it comes up

3334
02:08:27,350 --> 02:08:24,719
with five on the top you can choose in

3335
02:08:29,270 --> 02:08:27,360
your own head you don't say it allowed

3336
02:08:31,270 --> 02:08:29,280
which number do you want the top or the

3337
02:08:33,669 --> 02:08:31,280
bottom so you're supposed to choose this

3338
02:08:35,990 --> 02:08:33,679
prior to rolling it but whatever one you

3339
02:08:38,790 --> 02:08:36,000
choose let's say you chose the top

3340
02:08:40,069 --> 02:08:38,800
number you get that amount of dollars so

3341
02:08:41,910 --> 02:08:40,079
in this case you roll five you're gonna

3342
02:08:43,510 --> 02:08:41,920
get five dollars if you had chosen the

3343
02:08:45,910 --> 02:08:43,520
bottom one remember this is a private

3344
02:08:47,910 --> 02:08:45,920
choice you just tell it to yourself then

3345
02:08:49,270 --> 02:08:47,920
you only get two dollars now how does

3346
02:08:50,870 --> 02:08:49,280
the investigator know or the

3347
02:08:52,550 --> 02:08:50,880
experimenter know which one you've

3348
02:08:54,149 --> 02:08:52,560
chosen up or down well you tell them

3349
02:08:55,270 --> 02:08:54,159
after it's been rolled

3350
02:08:57,830 --> 02:08:55,280
so you say

3351
02:08:59,830 --> 02:08:57,840
you roll it it lands a six on the top

3352
02:09:01,430 --> 02:08:59,840
and you say oh oh i

3353
02:09:03,669 --> 02:09:01,440
i meant to the top of course i'm at the

3354
02:09:06,149 --> 02:09:03,679
top they give you six dollars you then

3355
02:09:08,550 --> 02:09:06,159
roll it again you get a a four on the

3356
02:09:09,990 --> 02:09:08,560
top and uh a three on the bottom and

3357
02:09:11,830 --> 02:09:10,000
then you say yes again i meant the top

3358
02:09:13,350 --> 02:09:11,840
like i chose top and they give you four

3359
02:09:15,189 --> 02:09:13,360
dollars you roll it and then it gets a

3360
02:09:17,510 --> 02:09:15,199
two on the top then you say in that case

3361
02:09:19,750 --> 02:09:17,520
i meant of i meant the bottom one like i

3362
02:09:21,430 --> 02:09:19,760
you have no idea you can't read my mind

3363
02:09:23,270 --> 02:09:21,440
but i'm telling you

3364
02:09:25,030 --> 02:09:23,280
i'm not lying to you it's the bottom one

3365
02:09:27,270 --> 02:09:25,040
that i chosen prior to this okay they

3366
02:09:28,149 --> 02:09:27,280
give they give you five dollars so what

3367
02:09:29,830 --> 02:09:28,159
happens

3368
02:09:31,430 --> 02:09:29,840
probably what you imagined to happen

3369
02:09:33,430 --> 02:09:31,440
which is that people cheat and the way

3370
02:09:35,510 --> 02:09:33,440
that you can analyze this without

3371
02:09:37,669 --> 02:09:35,520
reading someone's mind is at a

3372
02:09:40,550 --> 02:09:37,679
statistical average level that they tend

3373
02:09:42,950 --> 02:09:40,560
to earn more than they should if it was

3374
02:09:45,270 --> 02:09:42,960
statistically random and you can measure

3375
02:09:47,669 --> 02:09:45,280
how much they cheat by and you can also

3376
02:09:49,910 --> 02:09:47,679
measure that they cheat because they can

3377
02:09:51,910 --> 02:09:49,920
be clamped down with a lie detect on a

3378
02:09:54,390 --> 02:09:51,920
lie detector test and you can see when

3379
02:09:56,950 --> 02:09:54,400
they're lying and now you say well let's

3380
02:09:58,950 --> 02:09:56,960
switch the test and let's say this money

3381
02:10:00,470 --> 02:09:58,960
that is going to be

3382
02:10:02,069 --> 02:10:00,480
awarded because you've rolled the die

3383
02:10:04,550 --> 02:10:02,079
and you've chosen internally up or down

3384
02:10:06,550 --> 02:10:04,560
prior to the role this money is not

3385
02:10:08,069 --> 02:10:06,560
going to you any longer it's going to a

3386
02:10:10,709 --> 02:10:08,079
charity

3387
02:10:14,790 --> 02:10:10,719
so then the question is well what

3388
02:10:17,189 --> 02:10:14,800
happens does lying increase or decrease

3389
02:10:18,950 --> 02:10:17,199
so i thought about this and i thought

3390
02:10:20,709 --> 02:10:18,960
the lying would decrease

3391
02:10:22,629 --> 02:10:20,719
because

3392
02:10:24,550 --> 02:10:22,639
it's for charity so people feel more

3393
02:10:26,390 --> 02:10:24,560
moral and people would be aligned

3394
02:10:29,510 --> 02:10:26,400
hopefully aligned with the good and that

3395
02:10:30,470 --> 02:10:29,520
would remind them of acting correctly

3396
02:10:31,910 --> 02:10:30,480
however

3397
02:10:33,589 --> 02:10:31,920
it turns out

3398
02:10:34,709 --> 02:10:33,599
that they lie more

3399
02:10:36,550 --> 02:10:34,719
so

3400
02:10:38,229 --> 02:10:36,560
okay that's extremely interesting well

3401
02:10:39,910 --> 02:10:38,239
why well

3402
02:10:41,589 --> 02:10:39,920
because even though they're not

3403
02:10:43,990 --> 02:10:41,599
self-motivated they feel like hey i'm

3404
02:10:46,069 --> 02:10:44,000
doing something that's that's good i'm

3405
02:10:48,069 --> 02:10:46,079
lying for the greater good that's why i

3406
02:10:50,069 --> 02:10:48,079
think it's extremely dangerous to ever

3407
02:10:51,510 --> 02:10:50,079
to i think it's extremely dangerous to

3408
02:10:53,669 --> 02:10:51,520
lie especially when you think you're

3409
02:10:55,109 --> 02:10:53,679
quote-unquote lying for the greater good

3410
02:10:56,310 --> 02:10:55,119
because you'll fool yourself into

3411
02:10:57,910 --> 02:10:56,320
thinking that there's nothing wrong with

3412
02:10:59,430 --> 02:10:57,920
it and then

3413
02:11:00,550 --> 02:10:59,440
you'll make incremental steps in the

3414
02:11:01,270 --> 02:11:00,560
direction of

3415
02:11:03,510 --> 02:11:01,280
of

3416
02:11:05,189 --> 02:11:03,520
mendacity and dissimulation okay then

3417
02:11:06,950 --> 02:11:05,199
you wonder well what happens with the

3418
02:11:09,350 --> 02:11:06,960
lie detector

3419
02:11:10,790 --> 02:11:09,360
do they does it go off even more turns

3420
02:11:12,950 --> 02:11:10,800
out that the light detector can no

3421
02:11:15,430 --> 02:11:12,960
longer detect the lies

3422
02:11:18,149 --> 02:11:15,440
so that's extremely interesting why

3423
02:11:20,550 --> 02:11:18,159
because the lie detector doesn't detect

3424
02:11:23,350 --> 02:11:20,560
lies per se it detects tension so it

3425
02:11:25,510 --> 02:11:23,360
detects in the initial case that

3426
02:11:28,629 --> 02:11:25,520
let's say it's number three on the top

3427
02:11:30,950 --> 02:11:28,639
and four on the bottom and you had said

3428
02:11:32,229 --> 02:11:30,960
i'm gonna choose the top one before it

3429
02:11:33,270 --> 02:11:32,239
rolls it's three on the top then you're

3430
02:11:34,709 --> 02:11:33,280
like

3431
02:11:36,790 --> 02:11:34,719
i want four dollars i don't want three

3432
02:11:39,189 --> 02:11:36,800
dollars there's a tension there where

3433
02:11:41,510 --> 02:11:39,199
you're like i want to be a good person

3434
02:11:43,189 --> 02:11:41,520
but i want four dollars at the same time

3435
02:11:46,709 --> 02:11:43,199
so that is what shows up on the lie

3436
02:11:48,709 --> 02:11:46,719
detector however if now you're lying

3437
02:11:52,069 --> 02:11:48,719
quote unquote for a charity there's no

3438
02:11:54,790 --> 02:11:52,079
tension you're doing what's right

3439
02:11:56,870 --> 02:11:54,800
this is one of the reasons why

3440
02:11:58,069 --> 02:11:56,880
sometimes people who

3441
02:11:59,669 --> 02:11:58,079
who lie

3442
02:12:02,069 --> 02:11:59,679
and well

3443
02:12:05,750 --> 02:12:02,079
people who lie can do so so

3444
02:12:08,069 --> 02:12:05,760
charismatically and so fluently and

3445
02:12:09,030 --> 02:12:08,079
and fluidly to

3446
02:12:10,709 --> 02:12:09,040
because

3447
02:12:13,430 --> 02:12:10,719
they believe they're doing so for some

3448
02:12:15,189 --> 02:12:13,440
greater cause and i'm i well i'm sure

3449
02:12:17,189 --> 02:12:15,199
you can imagine certain people doing

3450
02:12:18,790 --> 02:12:17,199
this but it's it's better to imagine

3451
02:12:21,270 --> 02:12:18,800
yourself doing this

3452
02:12:23,830 --> 02:12:21,280
oneself doing this

3453
02:12:26,550 --> 02:12:23,840
i think it's extremely dangerous to lie

3454
02:12:29,270 --> 02:12:26,560
in any small case and especially you'd

3455
02:12:31,030 --> 02:12:29,280
think no well the the edge cases where

3456
02:12:33,669 --> 02:12:31,040
one is doing it for

3457
02:12:35,750 --> 02:12:33,679
what's noble is the easiest case yes if

3458
02:12:37,510 --> 02:12:35,760
it's for the greater good you lie i

3459
02:12:40,229 --> 02:12:37,520
don't know i think that that's a

3460
02:12:41,589 --> 02:12:40,239
slippery path and it's a path where

3461
02:12:43,430 --> 02:12:41,599
you don't realize that you're doing it

3462
02:12:45,350 --> 02:12:43,440
and you have a grandiose vision of

3463
02:12:46,229 --> 02:12:45,360
yourself and you have no

3464
02:12:48,310 --> 02:12:46,239
no

3465
02:12:49,750 --> 02:12:48,320
dissonance associated with that so i

3466
02:12:52,229 --> 02:12:49,760
think it's extremely dangerous by the

3467
02:12:53,669 --> 02:12:52,239
way if you like

3468
02:12:55,589 --> 02:12:53,679
different formats if you have different

3469
02:12:57,109 --> 02:12:55,599
ideas for formats of toe

3470
02:13:01,030 --> 02:12:57,119
then

3471
02:13:03,109 --> 02:13:01,040
some people have suggested that i end

3472
02:13:05,430 --> 02:13:03,119
each episode with my takeaways i'm not

3473
02:13:08,069 --> 02:13:05,440
going to do that but that's a possible

3474
02:13:10,550 --> 02:13:08,079
format another one is end it with a line

3475
02:13:12,310 --> 02:13:10,560
of poetry that you like or an equation

3476
02:13:15,109 --> 02:13:12,320
that you find particularly impactful if

3477
02:13:17,030 --> 02:13:15,119
you have ideas let me know dan ako says

3478
02:13:18,069 --> 02:13:17,040
what made what made you originally love

3479
02:13:19,830 --> 02:13:18,079
the

3480
02:13:21,990 --> 02:13:19,840
love physics so much and did you enjoy

3481
02:13:24,390 --> 02:13:22,000
physics as a kid

3482
02:13:27,109 --> 02:13:24,400
i like puzzles i like logical puzzles

3483
02:13:28,950 --> 02:13:27,119
and creative problem-solving puzzles and

3484
02:13:31,270 --> 02:13:28,960
by the way there are two ways of

3485
02:13:33,109 --> 02:13:31,280
attacking a theory or some puzzle so one

3486
02:13:34,709 --> 02:13:33,119
is to attack it at its root

3487
02:13:37,189 --> 02:13:34,719
and then the other is to

3488
02:13:39,589 --> 02:13:37,199
investigate what ramifies so the ramos

3489
02:13:40,790 --> 02:13:39,599
structure it's complex and baroque and

3490
02:13:42,229 --> 02:13:40,800
it's difficult

3491
02:13:44,470 --> 02:13:42,239
to reach unless you know how to climb

3492
02:13:46,069 --> 02:13:44,480
that tree which occurs after years and

3493
02:13:48,229 --> 02:13:46,079
years of

3494
02:13:50,550 --> 02:13:48,239
laborious

3495
02:13:52,629 --> 02:13:50,560
lucubration so alternatively one can

3496
02:13:54,229 --> 02:13:52,639
take an axe to the accessible trunk like

3497
02:13:55,750 --> 02:13:54,239
i mentioned that's the first one and

3498
02:13:56,950 --> 02:13:55,760
that's what you can do without ever

3499
02:13:59,910 --> 02:13:56,960
having to learn

3500
02:14:00,950 --> 02:13:59,920
the language or the consequences of the

3501
02:14:04,790 --> 02:14:00,960
of the

3502
02:14:08,069 --> 02:14:04,800
process of

3503
02:14:09,830 --> 02:14:08,079
of toe is to attempt both okay i realize

3504
02:14:12,790 --> 02:14:09,840
i'm speaking a bit abstractly what i'm

3505
02:14:15,750 --> 02:14:12,800
saying is that

3506
02:14:17,990 --> 02:14:15,760
one can say in physics well look this is

3507
02:14:20,069 --> 02:14:18,000
not the correct molecule that one should

3508
02:14:22,229 --> 02:14:20,079
associate with some phenomenon okay

3509
02:14:24,950 --> 02:14:22,239
that's chemistry but then what you can

3510
02:14:26,790 --> 02:14:24,960
do is if you have no clue you can take a

3511
02:14:29,350 --> 02:14:26,800
post-modern approach and say hey you

3512
02:14:31,910 --> 02:14:29,360
shouldn't even be

3513
02:14:33,510 --> 02:14:31,920
relying on science to begin with

3514
02:14:35,270 --> 02:14:33,520
and then what you've done is

3515
02:14:38,390 --> 02:14:35,280
you've somehow answered that question

3516
02:14:41,669 --> 02:14:38,400
well does this molecule fit here or not

3517
02:14:43,189 --> 02:14:41,679
by attacking a much more fundamental

3518
02:14:45,189 --> 02:14:43,199
part and

3519
02:14:46,870 --> 02:14:45,199
it's actually the easy way out is to

3520
02:14:48,470 --> 02:14:46,880
attack the trunk and you'll see this

3521
02:14:50,149 --> 02:14:48,480
frequently in the comment sections of

3522
02:14:52,470 --> 02:14:50,159
other people's videos luckily the total

3523
02:14:54,870 --> 02:14:52,480
channel tends to have great comments so

3524
02:14:56,709 --> 02:14:54,880
not here but you'll see people say oh

3525
02:14:59,030 --> 02:14:56,719
well all of this is misguided don't they

3526
02:15:01,510 --> 02:14:59,040
see that numbers are are

3527
02:15:03,030 --> 02:15:01,520
an illusion and mathematics is so and so

3528
02:15:05,430 --> 02:15:03,040
well

3529
02:15:07,830 --> 02:15:05,440
you're on an edwitten video about the

3530
02:15:09,510 --> 02:15:07,840
modulized space of romanian manifolds

3531
02:15:11,350 --> 02:15:09,520
and then you say you have no clue what

3532
02:15:13,189 --> 02:15:11,360
that means so then you say yeah but it

3533
02:15:14,950 --> 02:15:13,199
must be false because look if

3534
02:15:16,950 --> 02:15:14,960
mathematics is the wrong approach to

3535
02:15:19,510 --> 02:15:16,960
begin to begin with so what one is doing

3536
02:15:21,750 --> 02:15:19,520
there is attacking the trunk and that's

3537
02:15:23,669 --> 02:15:21,760
a valid approach well perhaps it is

3538
02:15:25,990 --> 02:15:23,679
perhaps it isn't some people would argue

3539
02:15:28,069 --> 02:15:26,000
i would say that that's one approach and

3540
02:15:30,149 --> 02:15:28,079
then the other is to actually go in and

3541
02:15:32,229 --> 02:15:30,159
attempt to let's say navigate this the

3542
02:15:34,149 --> 02:15:32,239
modulized space of riemannian manifolds

3543
02:15:36,390 --> 02:15:34,159
and to formulate a theory sorry a

3544
02:15:38,069 --> 02:15:36,400
theorem and then prove it okay or

3545
02:15:39,830 --> 02:15:38,079
disprove it and that's difficult

3546
02:15:43,189 --> 02:15:39,840
extremely extremely extremely difficult

3547
02:15:45,189 --> 02:15:43,199
part i happen to like mental puzzles and

3548
02:15:49,669 --> 02:15:45,199
i tend to like

3549
02:15:53,830 --> 02:15:51,910
i'm a destructive person but at the same

3550
02:15:56,229 --> 02:15:53,840
time i happen to like the climbing of

3551
02:15:58,550 --> 02:15:56,239
the roots and so

3552
02:16:00,629 --> 02:15:58,560
i yes i've liked physics that's i've

3553
02:16:02,149 --> 02:16:00,639
liked physics as a kid i've liked math

3554
02:16:04,390 --> 02:16:02,159
as a kid and

3555
02:16:07,430 --> 02:16:04,400
i'm attempting with the toe podcast to

3556
02:16:08,550 --> 02:16:07,440
to do both okay jp velux says kurt if

3557
02:16:51,190 --> 02:16:08,560
you could have the answer to one

3558
02:16:57,830 --> 02:16:52,950
jp i don't know that's again that's a

3559
02:17:01,509 --> 02:16:59,669
i don't i don't know but there are some

3560
02:17:04,709 --> 02:17:01,519
there are questions that i think you

3561
02:17:06,150 --> 02:17:04,719
should think twice about if you truly

3562
02:17:08,469 --> 02:17:06,160
want the answer to

3563
02:17:10,870 --> 02:17:08,479
nicolas ramada says when is frank yang

3564
02:17:13,190 --> 02:17:10,880
so i mentioned again that i've

3565
02:17:16,469 --> 02:17:13,200
i've haven't been able to study for

3566
02:17:18,790 --> 02:17:16,479
frank king carl first in the ahlms video

3567
02:17:20,150 --> 02:17:18,800
you can are those videos which you can

3568
02:17:22,389 --> 02:17:20,160
look at to find more information about

3569
02:17:24,870 --> 02:17:22,399
this frank yang thank you so much you

3570
02:17:26,629 --> 02:17:24,880
sent me a long email and and i

3571
02:17:29,190 --> 02:17:26,639
appreciate it i haven't had a chance to

3572
02:17:30,950 --> 02:17:29,200
respond to frank games i apologize i

3573
02:17:34,389 --> 02:17:30,960
hope you know that i'm not

3574
02:17:37,349 --> 02:17:34,399
i'm not ignoring you i'm just extremely

3575
02:17:39,589 --> 02:17:37,359
terrified it would be one word to take a

3576
02:17:43,110 --> 02:17:39,599
look at it or not ready would be perhaps

3577
02:17:45,110 --> 02:17:43,120
a more copacetic word at some point i'll

3578
02:17:48,150 --> 02:17:45,120
i'll i'll speak to you

3579
02:17:50,230 --> 02:17:48,160
my my trepidation does seem to be

3580
02:17:53,349 --> 02:17:50,240
luckily

3581
02:17:54,950 --> 02:17:53,359
reducing with every passing week

3582
02:18:01,509 --> 02:17:54,960
by the

3583
02:18:03,429 --> 02:18:01,519
bach

3584
02:18:05,669 --> 02:18:03,439
i'll be responding to you frank

3585
02:18:08,389 --> 02:18:05,679
shortly so perhaps in a month or two

3586
02:18:10,709 --> 02:18:08,399
months or three months okay so

3587
02:18:11,669 --> 02:18:10,719
frank and nicholas give me some more

3588
02:18:13,110 --> 02:18:11,679
time

3589
02:18:15,030 --> 02:18:13,120
i need

3590
02:18:17,429 --> 02:18:15,040
it ameliorates every week like i

3591
02:18:19,349 --> 02:18:17,439
mentioned just i need some more time

3592
02:18:21,349 --> 02:18:19,359
john john viz says when will you get

3593
02:18:23,589 --> 02:18:21,359
chris lange to speak with eric weinstein

3594
02:18:24,629 --> 02:18:23,599
if they're both interested then then yes

3595
02:18:26,309 --> 02:18:24,639
k

3596
02:18:29,270 --> 02:18:26,319
says

3597
02:18:31,669 --> 02:18:29,280
do you suffer from panic attacks

3598
02:18:33,990 --> 02:18:31,679
or anxiety related obstacles in your

3599
02:18:35,509 --> 02:18:34,000
life is socializing difficult

3600
02:18:37,349 --> 02:18:35,519
is diff going out in public places

3601
02:18:39,429 --> 02:18:37,359
difficult

3602
02:18:41,990 --> 02:18:39,439
sorry if it's too personal they said

3603
02:18:43,589 --> 02:18:42,000
no so luckily i don't

3604
02:18:45,349 --> 02:18:43,599
suffer from panic attacks and i don't

3605
02:18:46,230 --> 02:18:45,359
have agoraphobia i can go outside in

3606
02:18:46,950 --> 02:18:46,240
public

3607
02:18:50,830 --> 02:18:46,960
i

3608
02:18:52,629 --> 02:18:50,840
that respect

3609
02:18:56,230 --> 02:18:52,639
i

3610
02:18:58,230 --> 02:18:56,240
recently where almost every other

3611
02:19:00,230 --> 02:18:58,240
thought was an extremely fearful thought

3612
02:19:04,830 --> 02:19:00,240
i was about three months straight and i

3613
02:19:11,270 --> 02:19:08,389
that's well it's mollified now luckily

3614
02:19:12,709 --> 02:19:11,280
inc retreat studio says what happened to

3615
02:19:14,070 --> 02:19:12,719
part two of the sao

3616
02:19:16,870 --> 02:19:14,080
pius interview i'm going to do it in

3617
02:19:18,469 --> 02:19:16,880
person with cell and

3618
02:19:20,150 --> 02:19:18,479
sal would like that as well we

3619
02:19:21,589 --> 02:19:20,160
communicate to each other over email

3620
02:19:23,910 --> 02:19:21,599
occasionally

3621
02:19:25,830 --> 02:19:23,920
and check in on one another the timing

3622
02:19:30,230 --> 02:19:25,840
right now is not right for either of us

3623
02:19:32,629 --> 02:19:31,030
okay

3624
02:19:34,950 --> 02:19:32,639
many scientific philosophical

3625
02:19:37,349 --> 02:19:34,960
discoveries occurred from

3626
02:19:40,790 --> 02:19:37,359
a correct concise phrasing of the

3627
02:19:42,549 --> 02:19:40,800
question that contains the problem

3628
02:19:44,629 --> 02:19:42,559
and not from

3629
02:19:46,070 --> 02:19:44,639
initially conceptualizing the solution

3630
02:19:47,589 --> 02:19:46,080
that is to say do you believe that the

3631
02:19:49,670 --> 02:19:47,599
framing of the question is often the

3632
02:19:51,750 --> 02:19:49,680
most important step in the discovery of

3633
02:19:53,110 --> 02:19:51,760
the solution to that question i do think

3634
02:19:55,590 --> 02:19:53,120
that that's the case

3635
02:19:57,429 --> 02:19:55,600
many of the times often in mathematics

3636
02:20:00,830 --> 02:19:57,439
there's a phrase that says make your

3637
02:20:03,990 --> 02:20:00,840
definitions complex and your proofs

3638
02:20:06,950 --> 02:20:04,000
simple which means once you have the

3639
02:20:08,550 --> 02:20:06,960
correct idea of what you're

3640
02:20:10,710 --> 02:20:08,560
playing around with

3641
02:20:12,630 --> 02:20:10,720
then the proofs become trivial

3642
02:20:14,950 --> 02:20:12,640
and so certain questions like

3643
02:20:16,630 --> 02:20:14,960
well how was god there before anyone

3644
02:20:18,630 --> 02:20:16,640
else how does the cause list happen and

3645
02:20:20,710 --> 02:20:18,640
so on i don't know of how

3646
02:20:21,910 --> 02:20:20,720
the quote unquote how is the correct

3647
02:20:23,990 --> 02:20:21,920
frame

3648
02:20:25,990 --> 02:20:24,000
and to me it would be like saying what

3649
02:20:29,110 --> 02:20:26,000
time is the pen

3650
02:20:31,349 --> 02:20:29,120
or or how is the panoply

3651
02:20:33,270 --> 02:20:31,359
well what the heck does that mean it

3652
02:20:36,150 --> 02:20:33,280
perhaps it works at a syntactic level

3653
02:20:39,030 --> 02:20:36,160
but not as a semantic one like the

3654
02:20:41,429 --> 02:20:39,040
chomsky an idea of green colorless ideas

3655
02:20:43,030 --> 02:20:41,439
that sleep furiously i believe was it so

3656
02:20:45,110 --> 02:20:43,040
the mystic may say that one doesn't need

3657
02:20:48,550 --> 02:20:45,120
to do all of these verbal gymnastics

3658
02:20:51,750 --> 02:20:48,560
it's all a distraction and

3659
02:20:53,030 --> 02:20:51,760
rupert spyro might be on that they

3660
02:20:54,950 --> 02:20:53,040
feel like that because they're already

3661
02:20:57,429 --> 02:20:54,960
on a spiritual bend but there are large

3662
02:20:58,950 --> 02:20:57,439
swaths of the population the majority

3663
02:21:02,469 --> 02:20:58,960
perhaps not the minority but at least a

3664
02:21:05,670 --> 02:21:02,479
sizable portion 30 percent maybe greater

3665
02:21:08,309 --> 02:21:05,680
that aren't attracted to the eastern and

3666
02:21:11,110 --> 02:21:08,319
and mystical

3667
02:21:13,349 --> 02:21:11,120
method of knowing and that

3668
02:21:15,750 --> 02:21:13,359
one doesn't feel like the answer is i

3669
02:21:17,910 --> 02:21:15,760
just need to simply experience life and

3670
02:21:19,910 --> 02:21:17,920
meditate away into a blissful sea of

3671
02:21:22,070 --> 02:21:19,920
nothingness so

3672
02:21:24,469 --> 02:21:22,080
30 percent of the population may feel

3673
02:21:25,990 --> 02:21:24,479
like oh yes i do need to do that like i

3674
02:21:27,990 --> 02:21:26,000
can see that there's some truth to it

3675
02:21:30,150 --> 02:21:28,000
but they they don't do it they can't do

3676
02:21:32,469 --> 02:21:30,160
it they don't feel like that's

3677
02:21:34,230 --> 02:21:32,479
it doesn't jive with them and maybe they

3678
02:21:36,550 --> 02:21:34,240
don't know how to do i don't know how to

3679
02:21:38,870 --> 02:21:36,560
do that not all the time i've had

3680
02:21:41,349 --> 02:21:38,880
certain experiences like that so maybe

3681
02:21:43,670 --> 02:21:41,359
they don't have a reason

3682
02:21:45,030 --> 02:21:43,680
to do so enough to motivate them and to

3683
02:21:45,830 --> 02:21:45,040
find the how

3684
02:21:50,070 --> 02:21:45,840
the

3685
02:21:52,230 --> 02:21:50,080
community and so on is

3686
02:21:54,389 --> 02:21:52,240
somewhat helps with this or at least it

3687
02:21:56,469 --> 02:21:54,399
comes in and it's

3688
02:21:59,190 --> 02:21:56,479
the toe project or the toe channel is

3689
02:22:01,750 --> 02:21:59,200
like a process of explication of a of a

3690
02:22:03,349 --> 02:22:01,760
left a left brain investigation of a of

3691
02:22:06,070 --> 02:22:03,359
a right brain phenomenon it's not

3692
02:22:08,630 --> 02:22:06,080
because we disregard the the right brain

3693
02:22:10,469 --> 02:22:08,640
the experiential it's

3694
02:22:14,070 --> 02:22:10,479
it's it's because we see the importance

3695
02:22:18,710 --> 02:22:16,389
a ship to sail us from here to that

3696
02:22:21,030 --> 02:22:18,720
island to move us from our island to

3697
02:22:23,030 --> 02:22:21,040
another one the ships that work for

3698
02:22:25,110 --> 02:22:23,040
other people when people say hey all you

3699
02:22:27,190 --> 02:22:25,120
need to do is just meditate and just do

3700
02:22:28,550 --> 02:22:27,200
so-and-so they they don't work they

3701
02:22:30,550 --> 02:22:28,560
don't work for

3702
02:22:32,630 --> 02:22:30,560
for the logical analytical brain at

3703
02:22:35,270 --> 02:22:32,640
least not for many people like i said

3704
02:22:36,950 --> 02:22:35,280
perhaps 30 of people that's in part what

3705
02:22:40,469 --> 02:22:36,960
attracts that

3706
02:22:43,830 --> 02:22:40,479
30 or i think a subset of that 30 to the

3707
02:22:45,670 --> 02:22:43,840
tow podcast because

3708
02:22:47,349 --> 02:22:45,680
at least we're admitting that it just

3709
02:22:49,270 --> 02:22:47,359
doesn't jive with us

3710
02:22:52,630 --> 02:22:49,280
what i'm doing is trying to construct my

3711
02:22:54,870 --> 02:22:52,640
own boat and perhaps show by example how

3712
02:22:56,230 --> 02:22:54,880
others can construct their boat and they

3713
02:22:58,070 --> 02:22:56,240
can show me at least in the comment

3714
02:23:00,309 --> 02:22:58,080
section and on the discord and so on how

3715
02:23:02,469 --> 02:23:00,319
we can sail

3716
02:23:05,030 --> 02:23:02,479
to the promised land

3717
02:23:07,349 --> 02:23:05,040
by constructing a boat that is

3718
02:23:08,550 --> 02:23:07,359
is unexampled it's just for us it's

3719
02:23:10,070 --> 02:23:08,560
particular

3720
02:23:12,630 --> 02:23:10,080
and i see the utility in the

3721
02:23:14,710 --> 02:23:12,640
experiential approach i also see the

3722
02:23:17,349 --> 02:23:14,720
utility in the marriage between the

3723
02:23:19,270 --> 02:23:17,359
experiential and the analytical and so

3724
02:23:20,710 --> 02:23:19,280
many of those in the analytical will

3725
02:23:22,150 --> 02:23:20,720
disregard

3726
02:23:25,270 --> 02:23:22,160
the experiential so many in the

3727
02:23:27,830 --> 02:23:25,280
experiential will contem and disparage

3728
02:23:30,870 --> 02:23:27,840
the the analytical and say each one is

3729
02:23:33,110 --> 02:23:30,880
not needed only my approach well perhaps

3730
02:23:34,630 --> 02:23:33,120
perhaps so or

3731
02:23:38,150 --> 02:23:34,640
what's more likely is perhaps that's

3732
02:23:42,790 --> 02:23:40,630
and what what works for you doesn't

3733
02:23:46,469 --> 02:23:42,800
necessarily work for everyone else and

3734
02:23:48,630 --> 02:23:46,479
we all see this what

3735
02:23:49,830 --> 02:23:48,640
i think we're all well i think many of

3736
02:23:52,469 --> 02:23:49,840
us are

3737
02:23:54,790 --> 02:23:52,479
are tired of being told

3738
02:23:56,389 --> 02:23:54,800
that what one should do is

3739
02:23:58,550 --> 02:23:56,399
simply meditate in this manner and

3740
02:24:01,349 --> 02:23:58,560
simply realize chronicle realize quote

3741
02:24:03,670 --> 02:24:01,359
unquote awaken awaken quote-unquote

3742
02:24:05,750 --> 02:24:03,680
loss of ego quote-unquote loss of self

3743
02:24:07,830 --> 02:24:05,760
and many of these

3744
02:24:09,750 --> 02:24:07,840
misappropriated if i could use that word

3745
02:24:12,230 --> 02:24:09,760
misappropriated terms from the east

3746
02:24:14,790 --> 02:24:12,240
which actually are heavily laden in the

3747
02:24:16,710 --> 02:24:14,800
culture of the east and then they're

3748
02:24:18,469 --> 02:24:16,720
adopted in the west usually via some

3749
02:24:19,990 --> 02:24:18,479
psychedelic

3750
02:24:21,429 --> 02:24:20,000
insight

3751
02:24:23,910 --> 02:24:21,439
completely disentangled from the

3752
02:24:25,030 --> 02:24:23,920
communities of the east if you

3753
02:24:26,389 --> 02:24:25,040
told them your insights from

3754
02:24:28,389 --> 02:24:26,399
psychedelics they say oh my gosh you're

3755
02:24:30,150 --> 02:24:28,399
completely misguided that's not what we

3756
02:24:33,030 --> 02:24:30,160
meant at all you have misunderstood

3757
02:24:34,710 --> 02:24:33,040
you've taken a translation mistranslated

3758
02:24:37,030 --> 02:24:34,720
it mistranslated and then adopted it

3759
02:24:39,830 --> 02:24:37,040
into english singularly when it should

3760
02:24:41,990 --> 02:24:39,840
have been from the source from our

3761
02:24:44,070 --> 02:24:42,000
culture in our culture with multiple

3762
02:24:45,910 --> 02:24:44,080
people and it's not just an insight that

3763
02:24:47,270 --> 02:24:45,920
you get alone it's something you work

3764
02:24:49,270 --> 02:24:47,280
through with a

3765
02:24:52,790 --> 02:24:49,280
with a with a sangha is what diana

3766
02:24:55,590 --> 02:24:52,800
pasoka said with a community of people

3767
02:25:00,710 --> 02:24:58,550
perhaps there's something

3768
02:25:02,150 --> 02:25:00,720
amiss with the analytical approach

3769
02:25:03,510 --> 02:25:02,160
perhaps there's something amiss with the

3770
02:25:05,190 --> 02:25:03,520
experiential approach but perhaps

3771
02:25:06,550 --> 02:25:05,200
there's utility in both and perhaps

3772
02:25:07,429 --> 02:25:06,560
there's utility in the marriage between

3773
02:25:09,510 --> 02:25:07,439
them

3774
02:25:11,270 --> 02:25:09,520
slo says do you have a synthesis of the

3775
02:25:13,510 --> 02:25:11,280
top concepts and theories you've learned

3776
02:25:15,510 --> 02:25:13,520
from your guests it's all disconnected

3777
02:25:17,910 --> 02:25:15,520
currently i need i need to spend more

3778
02:25:19,990 --> 02:25:17,920
time integrating rather than

3779
02:25:21,270 --> 02:25:20,000
rather than learning and then going on

3780
02:25:22,389 --> 02:25:21,280
to the next one and then learning and

3781
02:25:23,590 --> 02:25:22,399
learning

3782
02:25:25,030 --> 02:25:23,600
logan says

3783
02:25:26,309 --> 02:25:25,040
what were you like in high school did

3784
02:25:28,469 --> 02:25:26,319
you have a hard time fitting in did you

3785
02:25:30,870 --> 02:25:28,479
win any awards did you know what you

3786
02:25:33,510 --> 02:25:30,880
wanted to do in life i i had no hard

3787
02:25:35,830 --> 02:25:33,520
time fitting in there was no popular

3788
02:25:37,270 --> 02:25:35,840
crowd unlike what you see in the movies

3789
02:25:39,830 --> 02:25:37,280
at least not in my high school there

3790
02:25:41,510 --> 02:25:39,840
were certainly unpopular crowds but i

3791
02:25:44,710 --> 02:25:41,520
wasn't in one of them

3792
02:25:46,870 --> 02:25:44,720
awards i think i won an award or two i i

3793
02:25:48,870 --> 02:25:46,880
don't recall my physics teacher was kind

3794
02:25:50,710 --> 02:25:48,880
to me and gave me great grades even

3795
02:25:51,670 --> 02:25:50,720
though i didn't do the assignments he

3796
02:25:54,070 --> 02:25:51,680
saw that

3797
02:25:56,870 --> 02:25:54,080
he he saw he said there was extreme

3798
02:25:58,070 --> 02:25:56,880
potential in me and i was just like

3799
02:26:00,630 --> 02:25:58,080
i was

3800
02:26:02,710 --> 02:26:00,640
so lazy i wouldn't do the tests sorry i

3801
02:26:04,630 --> 02:26:02,720
would do extremely well on tests but i

3802
02:26:06,630 --> 02:26:04,640
would get zeros in the homework and i

3803
02:26:09,990 --> 02:26:06,640
didn't hand them in in fact i fought

3804
02:26:13,750 --> 02:26:11,510
because he made me do matrix

3805
02:26:15,349 --> 02:26:13,760
multiplication for pages and pages and i

3806
02:26:17,110 --> 02:26:15,359
remember thinking

3807
02:26:18,630 --> 02:26:17,120
what's the point of this it's not even a

3808
02:26:20,790 --> 02:26:18,640
linear transformation you're just

3809
02:26:22,710 --> 02:26:20,800
getting me to multiply rows and columns

3810
02:26:24,469 --> 02:26:22,720
together so i had to go i went to the

3811
02:26:27,349 --> 02:26:24,479
school board and then the school board

3812
02:26:30,870 --> 02:26:29,110
well

3813
02:26:32,630 --> 02:26:30,880
i don't know how i had the courage to to

3814
02:26:34,550 --> 02:26:32,640
do that as a high schooler to go up

3815
02:26:36,309 --> 02:26:34,560
against the teacher like that but i

3816
02:26:38,230 --> 02:26:36,319
guess my my

3817
02:26:39,030 --> 02:26:38,240
my unindustriousness got the better of

3818
02:26:39,990 --> 02:26:39,040
me

3819
02:26:42,150 --> 02:26:40,000
and

3820
02:26:43,830 --> 02:26:42,160
as far as what i wanted to do in life i

3821
02:26:46,150 --> 02:26:43,840
wanted to be a mathematician i believe

3822
02:26:48,550 --> 02:26:46,160
or a physicist i wanted in particular to

3823
02:26:50,070 --> 02:26:48,560
solve the riemann hypothesis

3824
02:26:52,550 --> 02:26:50,080
and come up with a toe with the theory

3825
02:26:55,670 --> 02:26:52,560
of everything so the signs of

3826
02:26:57,910 --> 02:26:55,680
of hubristic behavior were apparent at

3827
02:27:00,710 --> 02:26:57,920
an extremely early age

3828
02:27:02,870 --> 02:27:00,720
lar bowler said amazing kurt i really

3829
02:27:03,990 --> 02:27:02,880
hope this is a thing my number one

3830
02:27:05,429 --> 02:27:04,000
question would be how do you deal with

3831
02:27:06,550 --> 02:27:05,439
depression

3832
02:27:09,670 --> 02:27:06,560
i i

3833
02:27:11,670 --> 02:27:09,680
luckily i don't have depression i'm i'm

3834
02:27:14,710 --> 02:27:11,680
super lucky i don't have feelings of

3835
02:27:17,510 --> 02:27:14,720
sadness almost ever except well

3836
02:27:19,190 --> 02:27:17,520
the short lived and they're with respect

3837
02:27:21,030 --> 02:27:19,200
to watching a movie or a story or seeing

3838
02:27:23,190 --> 02:27:21,040
something on

3839
02:27:23,990 --> 02:27:23,200
seeing an image or or a video

3840
02:27:27,270 --> 02:27:24,000
and

3841
02:27:29,349 --> 02:27:27,280
it's not persistent it's more about

3842
02:27:32,630 --> 02:27:29,359
well i don't have persistent sadness at

3843
02:27:36,630 --> 02:27:32,640
all where do you see yourself in one to

3844
02:27:41,429 --> 02:27:38,790
five years ten years who knows who knows

3845
02:27:43,910 --> 02:27:41,439
one year i have some plans i have

3846
02:27:45,349 --> 02:27:43,920
plenty of plans pale horse says what is

3847
02:27:48,950 --> 02:27:45,359
your mission in life

3848
02:28:05,670 --> 02:27:51,910
i

3849
02:28:11,349 --> 02:28:07,429
yes that's correct so dredge up from the

3850
02:28:17,110 --> 02:28:11,359
depths antagonist says last question

3851
02:28:21,270 --> 02:28:18,630
right now i'm

3852
02:28:23,670 --> 02:28:21,280
exhausted i've been doing this

3853
02:28:25,670 --> 02:28:23,680
for almost 12 hours straight now because

3854
02:28:27,910 --> 02:28:25,680
i had some podcasts earlier today one

3855
02:28:30,550 --> 02:28:27,920
with gen zed another with greg henriques

3856
02:28:32,710 --> 02:28:30,560
and then prepping for this and then well

3857
02:28:34,630 --> 02:28:32,720
i don't need to go through what i was up

3858
02:28:36,870 --> 02:28:34,640
to and what i'm going to do after this

3859
02:28:39,510 --> 02:28:36,880
it's 9 p.m i should have finished that i

3860
02:28:40,389 --> 02:28:39,520
was planning on finishing at 5 00 p.m or

3861
02:28:42,150 --> 02:28:40,399
so

3862
02:28:43,670 --> 02:28:42,160
5 p.m for the latest

3863
02:28:44,630 --> 02:28:43,680
and i have these lights here and these

3864
02:28:47,590 --> 02:28:44,640
are

3865
02:28:51,990 --> 02:28:49,429
sad lamps i believe seasonal affective

3866
02:28:54,469 --> 02:28:52,000
disorder not that i i have that luckily

3867
02:28:55,429 --> 02:28:54,479
i don't suffer from any such condition

3868
02:28:57,750 --> 02:28:55,439
but

3869
02:28:59,590 --> 02:28:57,760
it's it's just because they're

3870
02:29:02,550 --> 02:28:59,600
extremely lightweight lamps they mimic

3871
02:29:05,270 --> 02:29:02,560
the uv sorry they mimic the

3872
02:29:06,710 --> 02:29:05,280
the light of the sun for people who have

3873
02:29:09,030 --> 02:29:06,720
seasonal effective disorder i forgot

3874
02:29:10,550 --> 02:29:09,040
what they're called happy lamps

3875
02:29:12,389 --> 02:29:10,560
regardless the point is that this is

3876
02:29:13,670 --> 02:29:12,399
going to keep me up now because it's 9

3877
02:29:15,750 --> 02:29:13,680
p.m and i'm still looking at these

3878
02:29:17,990 --> 02:29:15,760
lights they should have shut off at 6 pm

3879
02:29:19,750 --> 02:29:18,000
so i'm feeling a bit flustered from that

3880
02:29:21,510 --> 02:29:19,760
i'm feeling extremely grateful that

3881
02:29:24,710 --> 02:29:21,520
people are interested in

3882
02:29:25,990 --> 02:29:24,720
in the theories of everything podcast

3883
02:29:28,230 --> 02:29:26,000
i'm wondering what the heck is my wife

3884
02:29:30,550 --> 02:29:28,240
doing she's probably urinated 10 times

3885
02:29:32,150 --> 02:29:30,560
over in that bedroom and just

3886
02:29:34,550 --> 02:29:32,160
shaking her fist wondering when the hell

3887
02:29:36,870 --> 02:29:34,560
am i going to finish this and having her

3888
02:29:38,309 --> 02:29:36,880
ear against the door thinking is this

3889
02:29:40,309 --> 02:29:38,319
over this was supposed to be over two

3890
02:29:41,990 --> 02:29:40,319
hours ago what the heck is happening so

3891
02:29:43,590 --> 02:29:42,000
i'm gonna go check in on her

3892
02:29:45,750 --> 02:29:43,600
if you're wondering what i'm referring

3893
02:29:48,469 --> 02:29:45,760
to this is a reference to the fact that

3894
02:29:51,110 --> 02:29:48,479
we have a fairly tiny condo with only

3895
02:29:53,750 --> 02:29:51,120
one washroom which is directly behind me

3896
02:29:56,550 --> 02:29:53,760
during podcasts my poor wife has to wait

3897
02:29:59,510 --> 02:29:56,560
in the room with plastic cups to urinate

3898
02:30:01,510 --> 02:29:59,520
in unfortunately until we can move out

3899
02:30:02,790 --> 02:30:01,520
to another place

3900
02:30:06,630 --> 02:30:02,800
i

3901
02:30:08,309 --> 02:30:06,640
do so

3902
02:30:20,710 --> 02:30:08,319

02:30:24,870 --> 02:30:20,720

that the toe podcast would end in three

3920
02:31:20,070 --> 02:31:17,680
years i remember thinking that and

3921
02:31:21,910 --> 02:31:20,080
saying that i think in the first ama

3922
02:31:24,389 --> 02:31:21,920
i now see it extending out to seven

3923
02:31:27,429 --> 02:31:24,399
years so seven years from this point so

3924
02:31:30,710 --> 02:31:27,439
