Is that Eddie Murphy?
Yeah.
SIXER CHOCOLATE!
Daddy and uh, who was the other one?
Dardell?
Coming to America.
Dardell?
Lewis?
Sunil Hall.
Oh, or Sunil Hall.
Yeah.
Did you guys watch the second one?
No.
Did you watch the second one?
It wasn't good.
No, I didn't watch it because...
I started watching it and I became immediately disinterested and I don't know why.
I know you were looking forward to it.
It burnt out on Eddie Murphy's humor.
I really, really was.
And Shelly said she watched it again and it wasn't as bad as my reaction to it.
But it was bad.
I couldn't finish it.
All right, well, it's dudes like us.
I'm Sean.
I am Paul.
And I am Jeff.
And this is the second half.
We kind of got blown up on the first half.
And we're still blown up.
We didn't go away.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Hold on.
We're teetering.
We're teetering on so variety.
I would say right now we're teetering.
It did go...
Well, we did eat popcorn about a bag.
Well, typically we want to try to dumb down or we want to like not get as high as proof
on the second one.
And I looked at the bottle.
Sean failed at that.
I did.
I was like, well, I really want the double, the Rebecca Craig double barrel bourbon whiskey,
Spanish oak.
You know, I was wanting it forever.
I want to taste it and I tasted the fuck out of it.
It's so yummy.
It is.
It tastes...it's got maple.
It's got chocolate.
It's got spice.
It's got...it's fantastic.
It is fantastic.
However...
It is extremely strong.
I read 93 and I thought that was the proof, but it was the barrel.
So if you guys listened to the previous podcast, he opened with, I just figured out that I
can't see, guys.
So that is proof that he can't see.
We need to validate all bourbon choices from here on out.
So what he was saying about Earl, we try to balance, right?
If we're going to open with 120 proof, we try to end with a 90 proof.
If we open with a 90, we try to end with a 120.
So this...
Both of these are 120 plus.
The lineup for Rebecca Craig, the double barrel bourbon Spanish oak whiskey.
This one is 123.5 proof.
Pretty stout.
It is stout, but it doesn't taste like it.
First one doesn't taste like it either.
The Elijah Craig that we had in the first half.
Guys, this is another nine.
We have two nines in a row.
This is really tasty.
This is fantastic.
This is very fantastic.
Well, it says the finish is dark chocolate.
It says the...
I have a problem with the word aroma.
Why?
Walking through that.
It makes me think of flatulence.
Well, that's because you're walking flatulence.
No.
It needs to be nose.
No, no, no, no.
Aroma.
Aroma is when you're cooking food.
Aroma is when you're making something wonderful.
It's not stench.
Aroma is when you...
I think that says more about you.
Drop a deuce.
Because I've hung out with Sean.
Drop a deuce is stench.
It's stench, not aroma.
No.
Sean has an aroma.
No.
He doesn't.
He has a stench.
Aroma typically doesn't have a negative connotation to it.
Here we go.
Here's the difference.
Aroma, a quality that can be perceived as the olfactory sensor.
A pleasant odor.
No.
Well, it doesn't say pleasant.
Oh, no, it does.
It does.
Usually pleasant.
Usually.
Now look up stench.
Oh, God.
Stench is different.
Stench is completely...
Stench is Sean.
That's the point I'm trying to make.
Stench is Sean, not aroma.
Why do you mean me?
Well, because you make a stench.
You make a strong foul odor, a stink.
An ill smell.
A foul or objectable quality.
Dude.
I agree with that.
Yes.
So don't say aroma when you refer to Sean.
I'll take that as an ill smell.
That is stench.
A strong foul odor.
Yes, odor, a stink.
My farts smell like a nice ripe stone fruit.
No.
Great.
I'm eating meat and vegetable.
Right.
So you just eliminated 90% of the bourbons we drink.
The stone fruits.
All right.
Well, look.
Back to the Rebecca Creek.
First of all, Rebecca Creek is fantastic.
Let's start there.
We've had...
I think this is the third bottle.
This is our second.
We had a 12-year.
Our second.
We have a 12-year.
The 12-year is fantastic.
Come on, 12-year.
What the fuck?
And I'm so proud that this is a local bourbon.
I think it's M.G.P.
Well, it tastes great.
Stop it.
It's bottled in San Antonio.
They did a great job with the M.G.P.
So, you know.
I think.
We actually could go to the Rebecca Creek Distillery in Texas, in the state of Texas.
They do make vodkas because they make the Enchanted Rock vodka, which is usually the
start of a bourbon distillery.
Right.
Well, they want to make money until...
While the bourbon is aging.
So they're buying M.G.P., aged M.G.P., and they may age it a little bit more down here
and do shit to it, right?
Spanish.
Right.
And then they sell it, and then hopefully in the next couple years they have their own
bourbon.
Why are you putting a stench on our Rebecca Creek?
I'm not saying M.G.P. makes good stuff.
I'm just saying they don't distill their own.
I know, but you were like, it's M.G.P.
It's M.G.P.
Well, you know, we frown on that typically, but you know what?
Do we?
I don't know if we should.
I do.
I don't think we should.
Well, I will.
Are you thinking that it's the cheap way out?
I just think it's the...
Or the easy way.
Not cheap, but the easy way out.
Look, you could be a beginner.
I got you.
You'll have fantastic quality.
But if you want to be established, you want your own shit.
I understand what he's saying.
When you're a purist, I mean, it's like if you really want to respect a brand, they make
it.
They make it from the beginning to end.
Right?
I mean, it's theirs.
It's their ingredients.
It's their recipe.
That's like me providing flavored water.
Where did I get the water?
You know what I mean?
It's City Water.
What the fuck?
City Water and you added your own stench dab.
Yeah, I started with my penis and there you go.
Wow.
Little salty.
Little, like, dickle is used in a lot of...
That's what I'll call it.
Dickle is used in a lot of people buy their bourbon or their distillate.
I will call it Mercedes.
Dickle.
So that's one that a lot of folks use.
I'm just saying.
And Heaven's Hill.
Heaven's Hill is another one that people buy their distillate.
And Eden Oak.
Is Eden Oak based on MGP?
Oak and Eden.
What is that?
Well, that's what it is.
It's like if we all came together and it's like, hey, we want to make our own bourbon.
Let's buy a couple barrels of MGP and age it and do shit to it and then sell it.
And what's the do shit to it?
I don't think...
Well, like Oak and Eden put the spires in it.
The staves.
The spires.
Spires, staves.
The staves are spires.
But I'm just saying you could also put like the flavors in it, like the spices and...
You could.
You could put some clove.
We could stuff some cherries in there.
Nah, we're not going to do the cherries.
Why?
What's wrong with that?
Well, because yours turns to sludge.
It was so much.
Some bean cherries.
Yeah, that one's so bad.
What if we do that again?
No, no, no, no, not cherries.
What if...
You guys want to do that again?
I have no desire to do that.
The red something barrels.
Red bird barrel.
Red hen or something like that.
No, I don't really...
It didn't really do anything for me.
You don't want to age your own bourbon again?
No.
Why?
I don't care to.
Henry McKenna turned out great.
Whatever.
I still have some of mine out there we need to try it.
What?
I got a little bit left.
Of what?
Of the ancient age that I...
No, we figured out immediately that it was awful.
Oh, it's aged a little more, so maybe it's better.
It's still sitting in the barrel?
No, it's in the bottle.
Has it been rotating it?
It's in a bottle.
Okay, hold on.
Send the case out here.
Time out, time out.
When you take it out of the barrel and we're all like, oh, this is awful, and then you
put it into a bottle, it doesn't get better.
No, it's still awful.
The glass exudes all kinds of flavors.
Your hand gestures aren't going to change the taste, all right?
And that's why we don't do video again.
I don't know what those hand gestures were.
Yeah, it looked like he was tickling an elephant's scrotum.
You should have seen it.
It was.
Yeah, don't do that again, please.
All right, let's move on.
So, Rebecca Creek.
This is fantastic.
Rebecca Creek.
Yeah, they're down what, in San Antonio?
Two thumbs up on this one.
I'd give it another nine.
Two nines in a row.
Well, this is two of them that we've liked from Rebecca Creek.
Yeah, the 12-year was remarkably fantastic.
Oh, it was.
Plus a 12-year, but the price was really what was extraordinary about it, because we're
like 12-year for 50 bucks.
I'm in.
Yeah.
Look, 10 years for 50 bucks, I'm in.
I think it's only 90-ish proof, I think the 12-year was.
Yeah.
That's okay.
We don't have to be high-proof snobs.
Well, that's not good.
Because look what high-proof does to us.
What?
It blows you up.
Well, it blows you up.
Because you had half a hamburger.
I am in control.
I only had half a hamburger.
I had a salad.
Salad?
I had a salad and Spam.
That's just delicious, though.
I love Spam.
I really do.
Do you have croutons?
I was thinking about getting.
I bought some olives.
I bought black olives.
They were in the reduced area in the salad, and they were in this little.
Like expired in two days, you're like, I'll eat them all.
I diced them up.
I took them out of the thing.
I got clearance olives.
Dude, I did.
I got clearance olives.
I got, there was, God bless them.
What is hummus?
Chickpeas.
Got some flavored chickpeas.
That was actually really good for you.
Hummus is chickpeas and sesame seed.
Tahini is sesame seeds.
Well, I mean, I didn't buy hummus.
I got the chickpeas.
The chickpeas were just flavored.
They were came in.
Dude, there were 73 cents.
How many did you get?
I got two of the chickpeas.
I got one of the olives.
You had two chickpeas?
Yeah, I got two because my daughter likes, Madeline likes the chickpeas.
Did you eat all of them?
No, I just sprinkled them on top of my salad.
Nice.
And I did about half the olives.
They're also called garbanzo beans.
Garbanzo.
That sounds like.
Same thing?
Yes.
Sounds like the opening of the Muppet Show.
Garbanzo beans show.
That is gonzo.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't think it's the same thing.
It is simple.
Great show.
Yeah, it was.
It was a show.
The Muppet Show.
Greatness.
You know, and he was a mosquito, right?
Gonzo.
We couldn't figure out what he was.
Yeah, I think he was a mosquito because his nose was crooked.
I did a little research.
He kind of reminds me of the guy from Star Wars.
Hey, Anakin, we sold your mom to a bunch of pedophiles.
That guy didn't have the curved little proboscis though.
Why are you laughing at the wings?
It's funny.
That's good stuff, man.
So the Rebecca Creek is great.
So I give it a thumbs up.
You know, I sent that text out.
It says, hey, we need to go on a Texas bourbon run.
Yeah, I do.
We could go down to Waco, hit Balcones.
We could.
And we could hit, there's like four here in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Let's do it.
We can get a party bus to do it too.
What are you guys doing on Saturday?
Texas bourbon run.
Seriously, you know what?
You brought this up.
So we go back and we listen to the podcast.
Not only do you edit them and post them, but I'm also listening and I'm way behind.
And Sean, I think you're caught up.
But we go back and we listen to what we talk about.
Oh, we need to do this and we need to do that.
We don't do any of them.
You catch yourself going, God, we suck.
We suck.
We do.
Like, here we are making this online bucket list as we go.
We do zero.
100% zero of them.
Yes.
So why?
Why do we do zero of our bucket list?
Are they hard to do?
I mean, wait.
No, it just takes time.
Well, but we don't.
You need to be free.
Sean needs to be free.
I need to be free.
Yeah, but we don't make an effort at all.
Hold on.
Your camera sucks.
Okay, my camera sucks.
What are you doing?
He's trying to take a selfie and none of us are in there.
Hello.
Did you like smear that on your asshole after your lube penetration today?
Yeah, it's all blurry.
God.
Okay, anyway.
Can we do this?
Can we do the...
You know what this sucks about?
It's not just this phone and this camera.
It's every camera phone I get, all of them suck.
I mean, Samsung has a great product.
Probably better than the Apple phone when it comes to some of these.
Negative.
I think you're wrong.
And I'm not even an Apple zealot.
Well, statistically speaking, it's been the better camera, not necessarily the phone.
The cameras better.
It doesn't matter.
Just the fact that I have it.
They're both good.
I've had both.
They're both good.
And they both...
It goes bad?
You saying it goes bad?
I don't know what the deal is, but I can't seem to fucking take pictures, man.
Maybe you mistreat your phones.
Maybe I do.
I don't know.
He keisters it.
He kind of smears it.
Can you imagine my...
Quite the diameter.
I'd have a vagina slice.
No, I don't know.
That'd be shit like a Play-Doh dispenser with a fricking little flat tortilla coming out.
Little chimichanga.
But didn't you just have everything widened and looked at?
Widened?
I didn't go to a gynecologist.
Like that stretched kind of...
Yeah, the machine.
I didn't go to a gynecologist.
The speckulum?
The speckulum, and he's a fantastic doctor.
Small fingers?
No, they're like sausages.
Yeah, his hands are like a bushel of bananas.
My God.
Are they huge?
We literally just called out a very, very good doctor in our town.
Are they plantains?
Dude, he could literally pull out of my stomach what I ate, trying to check my prostate.
Ah, long fingers.
I don't believe this is going that deep.
Oh, it felt like it was.
I felt something break.
It was like hymen.
Stop.
No.
Why?
I doubled up on the strength, though.
It was like a Chinese little figure.
We obsess about anal cavity conversation.
Well, you usually bring it up.
No, that's usually you.
Well, I did.
Damn it, I did.
No, this is on me.
Guys, on behalf of our listener, I apologize for bringing up...
Well, look, back to the phone, and the picture is taken.
But you know what?
Thank you.
Everyone needs these phones.
I mean, the phones are paramount.
The thing about the phones that is crazy...
Do you need them?
I do, personally.
For your work, baby.
For work, yeah, absolutely.
If you don't need it for work, do you need a smartphone?
I wouldn't think so.
No.
Yeah, but you're going to need something.
I mean, they're handy.
They're very handy.
How many years did we live without it?
That's what I mean.
Oh, yeah.
We definitely don't need it.
Like, you could still buy a flip phone.
Yeah.
Yes.
Would that suffice?
Well, I mean, it's just a matter of convenience.
But I'll tell you what's kind of eye-opening.
When you got all the controversy about the batteries...
I'm driving towards the cobalt mining shit, but it's just the batteries and these little
devices that we're having and the argument we're having with fossil fuels versus the
batteries.
And hey, man, and Jeff, you nailed it the first half.
Hey, man, look, I would like to own something like that.
I would like to own a Tesla.
But it's not feasible.
It really isn't.
It's not.
It's not feasible.
If you have enough money where you can just buy it, fuck it, and once it's done, it's
disposable, all right, fine.
It kind of is a disposable car.
People don't know that.
But absolutely.
In 10 years when the battery bank dies, you have to spend 10 grand to get a new battery
bank.
No, it's more than that.
I know.
I read that a lot of insurance...
So why are we not hearing that?
Why are we not hearing that?
Why is that not pervasive?
I think you are more and more because the first generation Teslas are dying.
And I heard that insurance companies, when you get in a wreck, like it impacts the battery,
they're totaling the car.
Yeah, of course.
Because even though it may be on a normal car, it may be $2,000 to fix body damage.
Yeah.
The battery bank...
Because the battery cost $20,000.
Well, it's not one battery either.
It's a battery bank, is what I'm understanding.
It's like a thousand batteries, whatever it is.
Exactly.
Just imagine a bunch of D batteries.
They're a little bit larger than a D that they are.
Yeah, it's like a thousand batteries in sequence.
It's like D-sized batteries, like larger Ds.
Are you serious?
Absolutely.
Yeah.
They're barrels, little D barrels in there, a little larger than D batteries, and they're
lined up in series.
Well, no wonder they catch on fire.
Well, you know...
And I get this.
Well, anyway, the insurance companies are totaling.
Instead of repairing it because it costs too much, they'll total...
The whole car.
Which could have been a perfectly good car if it was a combustion engine.
Let me go back on this for a second.
Think about the battery...we're talking about battery banks.
Let's quantify this into a smaller battery style.
When you look at drills, for example, we use Milwaukee drills.
We have different size...the big batteries I've got, there are literally C batteries
inside those containers.
When you break them open, there's C batteries in there.
Really?
Rechargeable.
They're rechargeable C batteries running series.
Okay, fair enough.
Let them see batteries.
I didn't know that.
That's just...that's the way it is.
They hide that from you when they put it into a big...
You don't know.
You're oblivious.
You don't care.
I mean, you don't care.
You're the consumer.
You just want the product.
Right.
No, I understand that.
But when you actually open those things up, I mean, if you really are like, I don't want
to drop...I mean, if you go to the store...if I were to go to the store and want to replace
one of my Milwaukee batteries, I mean, especially the big ones, dude...
So wait, there's a 20 volt, like a 40 volt or something like that.
There are two different levels.
12 volt, 24 volt.
A rechargeable battery for all of these garden tools.
Yeah, you got to pay attention to.
You can buy the wrong battery.
Yeah, 14.4 volt.
Yeah, well, I mean, at the end of the day, you're counting voltage up in the amount of
batteries that you have in there.
You know, C batteries, those typically put out 1.5 volts.
So like even like AA, AAA, 1.5 volts.
Low amperage.
See, to me, the rechargeable battery thing that is perfect for tools.
Yeah, perfect for...
And that's where you should draw the line.
Yeah, perfect for tools, perfect for a lawn, like my weed eater.
I don't think those are applicable for weed eaters.
I don't think they're...
Perfect.
No, I have a weed eater.
I disagree.
No, mine's great.
Does it work?
I have one that's rechargeable.
It works.
Absolutely.
I'll tell you what, my experience with one, I bought one one time and it was a rechargeable
one for the weed eater.
It didn't work out very well.
Mine is a big, heavy battery.
So I don't know if it's a...
You know, I don't know.
Mine works well.
Yeah, mine totally does the job and then boom, I put it right back on the charger.
The battery half-life went extremely quick.
I don't know.
Well, you get bad batteries too.
That happens, right?
I ended up just tossing it.
Actually, I think I gave it to a neighbor.
It was just a waste.
I just, I mean, I don't have a big yard, but I go around the backyard, boom, boom, boom.
I go in the front yard, boom, boom, boom, and then I'm done.
And then I take the battery off and I put it right back on the charger.
And it's not even, like, I don't even think I get through...
I don't think you're supposed to do that.
I don't even...
Well, that's exactly why I was bringing that up.
So what, I should just leave it on the...
Until it dies.
You're supposed to have two batteries.
No, I immediately put it right back on the charger.
So here's what you're supposed to do.
You're supposed to...
You're supposed...
Actually, I shouldn't say supposed.
The nominal way to handle that is you exercise the battery to its full depletion.
Yeah, run it all the way down, charge it all the way up.
All the way down, charge it all the way up.
I've never, ever done that.
Yeah, that's why you're supposed to have two batteries.
So when you run all the way, one down, and then when you're done, you're just done.
We should fact check that.
Is that...
That's absolutely what you're supposed to do.
You don't do that with the Tesla?
Well, I mean, I'm not...
No, they don't.
Not at all.
But that, you know what?
They don't tell you that.
Run out until you're dead and then recharge it.
You don't have a second battery to put in there.
It can't be heavy.
It can't be true.
I mean, how many people...
It used to be true.
I mean, it used to be.
I mean, technology today is different than that.
Yes, I would agree with that.
So it's based on...
It's based on, from what I understood, it's based on what they call half-lives.
So it's just like every time you don't deplete a battery, it...
It shortens the life of it.
It shortens the half-life of the battery.
No, I get it.
I get that.
And that's what it is.
So that's exactly what it is, and that's all it is.
I think they've gotten better with the half-life program, and maybe they should rename it,
but that's the mustard of what I'm saying.
Yeah, no, I get it.
I get it.
I mean, but none of us are chemical engineers.
So they half-life the T to the half.
Oh, good Lord.
This is just a definition of half-life in general.
In relation to batteries.
Yes, what is independent of the concentration?
So hold on.
Do that math real quick, the bottom formula real quick.
Yes, okay.
So that's...
First order rate law, the half-life is independent of the concentration.
R over one half R.
Integer.
Okay, so that's.93 over K.
That's not...
What is K?
That's an LN.
Come on, K.
Potassium?
Is that potassium?
No, it's not potassium.
That's an LN.
That's a linear...
K is...
God damn it, it doesn't show.
Okay, we're not doing math.
Potassium.
We're not doing math.
The fuck out of...
Hey, can you come up with a more...
This is a half-life in battery.
That is literally the worst thing you brought up for this conversation.
It could have been this whiteboard up there.
Calculating the half-life...
Well, we're calculating the half-life of a battery.
No, it has to be...
Here we go.
Oh, he's chiming in.
Holy shit.
He's getting on the microphone.
Let's hear...
Yeah.
That's it.
That's all you have to say, K is a constant?
That should be C.
Mr. Producer, would you bring up a description of how you're supposed to charge a rechargeable
battery?
That's what we're looking for.
And why would they use C instead of K?
How are you supposed to recharge a rechargeable battery?
Are you supposed to let it run all the way down?
Are you supposed to, like, when you're done using it, you put it right back in the car?
Are you supposed to, like, when you're done using it, you put it right back on the charger?
That's what we're looking for.
And all you came up with, K, is a constant.
You are not helpful in this conversation.
And what is.693?
It doesn't matter.
We don't understand any of this.
Where do they get that from?
Where do they get.693?
It's the first-order rate law.
No, that.693 is nowhere in any of that definition.
No, it says first-order rate law.
All right, so let me share this.
Where does the.693 come from?
My battery should always drop to zero before charging.
You want to fight about math?
We'll fight about math.
Mathly.
Parallelogram.
So the nickel-based batteries.
Parallelogram?
What?
That's not even math.
That's geometry.
The nickel-based batteries, which are like the Eneloop batteries.
Nickel cadmium sphere.
Yeah, the nickel-based batteries can be stored at any state of charge.
There you go.
So the lithium-ion ones must be stored at 30% to 50% maximum charge for the best results.
But it's better to store when they are fully charged when you're not going to recharge them in a few months.
Does that tell you to use 100% of the battery, though?
No, it doesn't.
Well, running a smartphone until it's dead, a full discharge every time, is not the way to go with a modern lithium-ion battery.
That's what I said.
Look at that.
Don't even let it get close to zero.
So you remember when we opened this conversation.
Oh, actually, that just says it's false.
Remember when we opened this conversation and you were like, I just throw away the batteries because they suck.
Well, that's because now we know why.
But that's a lithium battery.
Are the Tesla batteries lithium?
Yes.
Well, whatever.
Suck a dick.
So my experience with the batteries are mostly with the drills I use for construction.
So don't let them go all the way down.
There's other stuff, too.
You're not supposed to keep them in the heat.
And I kept them in my hot truck all the time.
In fact, they would say usually like put them in a cooler.
Really?
Yeah.
I usually keep my batteries in the freezer.
Oh, well, regular batteries.
Like, will you buy for all the kids remote controls and everything?
I put them in the freezer.
They last longer.
I put them in the refrigerator, not the freezer.
So it says, number one, keep the batteries at room temperature.
That means between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius.
Hold on.
Go to the top here.
What's the context?
What kind of batteries are we talking about here?
Five tips for extending lithium ion battery life.
I'm looking at regular Duracell.
OK, those are different.
Those are not.
Those are nickel cadmium.
Nickel cadmium.
Yes.
Wow.
Anyway, getting back to the batteries.
God.
So vulgar.
What are you from, Bulgaria?
Well, hold on.
But you know what?
That has a lot of merit in what we're going to.
So the nickel based ones are some of the bigger ones with torque.
So I mean, what kind of battery is in a Tesla?
Lithium ion.
So is there a Cobalt on that?
Yes.
All right.
So lots, lots of Cobalt and lithium ion.
Cobalt mines in the Congo.
Where are the Cobalt mines?
Congo.
Well, the number one area is the Democratic Republic of Congo is where the number one area.
That area is supplying, I've had too much of this for a minute.
Sorry, guys.
That area supplies over 75 percent of the world's Cobalt.
OK.
And so you guys referenced a podcast by the genius.
Yeah, they got Joe Rogan.
Joe Rogan.
Thank you.
And so they were talking about Cobalt mines.
Yeah, but they're talking about the conditions in which they get it because everyone's kind
of like, oh, well, you know what?
The batteries are the best.
But this is just another reason why it's such a bad idea for electric cars.
And because it's just like, what are we doing to get this?
It's like they're using slave labor.
Oh, my God.
It's totally slave labor.
It's like if I want to.
I'm not going to make it.
So you remember you remember.
So just to set the stage here, you remember when everybody talked about diamonds, right?
Oh, yeah.
And everybody's like diamonds.
Oh, my God.
Make sure your diamonds are don't come from, you know, the whatever family.
Yeah.
I don't want that.
The Beers family, because those are blood diamonds.
Right.
Then they were like, there's nothing wrong with going synthetic because that way they
don't do the slave labor, blah, blah, blah.
Well, here we go.
So they've got a Harvard professor and he's talking about the conditions in which they
mine it.
Producer.
I was the first outsider to get into this mine.
And that's why it's just a really short video that I was able to take.
This is an industrial cobalt mine where there's not supposed to be one artisanal miner.
Now, that's the term used for people who are just digging by hand as opposed to tractors
and excavators.
Look how many people are there?
There's not supposed to be one here.
There are thousands of people mining.
That's what the story is told at the top of the chain.
This mine and I can name it.
It's called Shabara.
There's not supposed to be one artisanal miner here, according to the consumer facing tech
companies and EV companies buying this cobalt.
Unbelievable.
And as I walk into this place and this is what I see, there's more than 15,000 human
beings crammed into that pit digging by hand.
And if you have sound, you hear the mallets, you hear the shouting, you hear the grunts.
It's a massive humanity.
You might expect to see a scene like this.
It looks like a packed stadium.
So, there's a term that gets used, clean cobalt.
There's no clean cobalt.
It's not real.
No, no.
It's all marketing.
It's all PR.
It's a fiction.
Just like that place.
There's not supposed to be any artisanal mining there.
How convenient.
It's all done industrially.
That's the story told at the top of the chain.
And people assume, people I mean the marketing teams at big tech and EV companies assume,
well who's going to go down there and actually walk into the place?
So, how convenient.
How convenient that none of that sees the light of day in the narrative of green everything.
Because like you said, it's the marketing where they say, we have clean cobalt, no slavery,
blah, blah, blah.
Because like you said, who's going to go down to Southeast Congo?
I mean they expose shit like this all the time.
You had Ricky Gervais on whatever fucking show, not the Grammys, but Golden Globes.
Where he's talking about if ISIS were to put out a streaming network, he'd be lining up
to get in line.
Well, he's talking, because Apple came up with this new format where they're going to
have this whole line of shows and people started applauding.
You applaud that, but you know Apple opens up a sweatshop where they're producing your
phones.
But you think that's okay, that they're okay to put out.
It's the same thing.
But my point by saying that is that he exposed them right then and there.
Nobody gives a fuck.
No follow up, no, no, no.
There was no story there.
We are the same.
Because we are the end user.
What are we going to do?
Our phones, and our phones is cobalt.
Every lithium battery that's made these days has cobalt in it.
Now the difference is, and he says it on this thing, and I don't remember the exact number,
this is like half a kilogram or 10% of a kilogram of cobalt in here.
Right.
But it's a precious metal.
A rare earth metal.
An EV has 10 kilograms.
So the amount that- What does that, a TV?
EV battery.
EV, sorry, okay.
EV.
Sorry.
The new electric vehicles that are the batteries for it.
Yes, yes.
A lot of it.
You use an enormous amount of cobalt in its mind like this to get, and it's, what do you
think the lifespan of these people are?
Breathing?
The particles emitted during the cobalt mining consist of radioactive emissions, cancer causing
particles, and particles which cause vision problems, vomiting and nausea, heart problems,
and thyroid damage.
Unbelievable.
You're not supposed to be down there without respirators.
Correct.
But that's not the only place in the world that they mine cobalt.
Over 75% of it.
Okay, where's the rest of it?
Is it in China?
He said 3% come from Australia, 3% comes here, 3% comes there.
Canada.
So it's spread out.
It's extremely small.
It's across Canada and Brazil.
Damn.
Extremely small percentages spread out across the rest of the world.
3%, he said.
3%.
So we're in a world where we have such heightened sensitivity.
Hold on, back up.
Back up.
I want to rephrase what I just said.
To make sure you understand, when I said 3%, what I meant was that Congo has the absolute
majority.
70%.
Over 75%.
And they have like maybe four or five or six different areas that produce 1-3%.
Yeah, the rest of it is totally distributed.
It's very miniscule that you're pulling from everywhere.
I get it.
But the majority is in Congo.
But my point is we live in a heightened sensitivity world, right?
Where you say anything, like I mean look at how the dog in Bill Gates for riding around
on his private jet.
Yeah, John Kerry.
John Kerry riding around on his private jet.
Well, what about Thermo?
I mean vilifying him for his carbon footprint.
I mean, and this is a billionaire who's got security concerns and he has to make sure
that he's wanted all over the world to, and I'm not defending him, but I'm just saying
he's got that kind of lifestyle, right?
Where he goes everywhere and they vilify him for that and yet this goes under the rug?
I mean, that's just cobalt.
Oh, and there's one more place.
It's Norway.
What about lithium?
Australia, Canada, and Norway.
Those are the three.
Okay, what about lithium?
Have you seen the lithium mines?
No.
Have you seen what those look like?
No.
Pull up a picture of a lithium mine.
Okay.
They don't look like that.
They're completely destructive of the environment.
Okay, so what is lithium for?
So that is obviously for batteries.
Correct.
Look at that.
Well, Chile has the world's largest lithium reserves.
Total strip mining.
Good Lord.
Yeah, that is...
That's huge.
This is like a little city over here.
Typically in South America, Australia has about 2.7 million.
Argentina has about 2 million tons.
China has about a million tons.
There we go.
So you know what?
I would question who mines it in China.
Well the Uyghurs probably.
You know what?
Maybe we joke, maybe we don't joke, but I'm telling you that could be very...
The danger of this is according to the report by the Friends of the Earth FOE, lithium extraction
inevitably harms the soil and causes air contamination.
As demand rises, the mining impacts are increasingly affecting communities where this harmful extraction
takes place, jeopardizing their access to water.
Unbelievable.
So what is it also?
They got the price...
The cost of lithium has risen from six grand a ton to $78,000 a ton in 2022.
For what?
Lithium?
For lithium.
That's going to bring your car price down.
No, it's going to make it more expensive.
Of course.
So the demand for these EV batteries is driving the mining boom in the arid Andes region of
Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, home to half of the world's reserves.
So you've got all these people working in unison to develop these EV batteries.
I mean it's not just...
You got the Congo.
Look, the Congo has a finite amount of this materials.
They're going to run out.
By the way, just like fossil fuels, finite.
Correct.
Well, yeah, finite.
Speaking of finite, somebody mentioned something.
I don't know who it was.
I think it may have been my dad, but I was a little concerned about this.
How much of our natural fuel reserves has Joe Biden gone through?
A lot.
Oh, the strategic oil reserves?
My dad said he's already blown through three quarters of it to try to get the gas prices
down.
We are at levels that we were in 1983 or 84.
I can't even comprehend that.
You sold it to the fucking China.
Well, okay.
So the story is, it's a company...
It's not to China, but it's a company affiliated with China.
So that means it's being sold to China.
Why would he even do that?
What was the economic purpose of doing that?
To lower the price of fuel in the US.
How does fuel going to China lower the price of fuel in the United States?
No.
Because there was a surplus of supply out there, right?
I don't know.
I don't understand it.
No.
I don't know.
No.
But that's what he did to lower the pricing.
He took credit.
He's like, I just lowered the pricing to...
He did shit.
Gas again.
He fucking did a Jedi mind trick on the population.
He pulled shit out of the reserves is essentially what he's doing.
I want to know why.
You know why?
Because he can get away with it.
It's kind of like our money and the deficit.
It just keeps...
He keeps stacking in it.
Why?
Because he can.
Because he made money personally?
No, he didn't make money.
Who knows?
He may have made money personally.
Why would...
There has to be an economic reason for him to release our strategic oil reserves.
You mean to China?
To anybody.
Well, because he's butting up.
He's sucking China's dick right now because the president, Zing...
Z?
What's his fucking name?
Yeah.
What is it?
Wee?
Z?
Wee?
Ying?
Eleven.
It's Xi.
Let's go with eleven.
Ping.
Yeah.
Whatever.
Ping.
Zing?
Or zing ping ping?
China douchebag.
You know, so anyways, he...
So you think it was for favors?
For wheeling and dealing and padding his own pocket.
Not just his own pocket.
Well, that's what it boils down to.
It's his family wealth.
Family wealth.
The Obama family.
He's padding the Clintons.
Look, this money's going, being distributed, and there's people collecting it.
There's the New World Order.
Okay, I don't even know who they are.
The Bilderbergs?
You guys know them?
Who?
No.
Bilderbergs.
Type in Bilderbergs.
All right, so you got the New World Order.
You got the Illuminati, and then you have the Bilderbergs.
All right, the Bilderbergs.
The Clintons are part of the Bilderbergs.
It's part of the New World Order shit.
So there's this huge...
Kind of like the Mason...
The Masons?
Yes.
A secretive George Soros organization.
It's a secretive power group that you got people from all over the planet that job up.
That basically, look, everybody on the planet that fucking owned, that has money is part
of this group.
You got Hillary Clinton, you get the Clintons showing up, you've got everyone showing up
to this that make these decisions on how the planet is going to progress.
David Petraeus?
I saw that.
That was the one that I paused on.
I was like, David Petraeus?
He was a former director of the CIA?
He was under Trump, wasn't he?
Yes, he's part of the Bilderbergs.
The rest of these people, I don't even know who they are.
Rasmussen, Craig Mooney...
I know some of them.
You know Kissinger.
Oh, Henry Kissinger, yeah.
What kind of picture is that with David Petraeus?
Very weird, yeah, he looks like Beetlejuice.
I mean, what's going on there?
Hold on, okay, so this is no different than like the secretive Davos or...
Like WEF?
Well, the Skull of Bones, I mean, there's all kinds of organizations out there.
Yeah, that's been around for a long time.
Yeah, they've talked about all sorts of different organizations that are trying to drive the
world to some utopian bullshit.
But the three biggest ones right now are these.
I mean, the Bilderberg is supposed to be the biggest one from what I understand.
The New World Order...
And they want what?
You keep saying New World Order.
So New World Order generally means one world order.
There is...
One world order.
There is divine...
I'm going to say divine.
When I say divine, I'm talking about these upper echelon of groups are all wanting the
same thing.
They're wanting like this utopia style...
You know what it is?
It's a socialist toss.
It's to...
What they want is to consolidate power and i.e. consolidate wealth.
This is the great reset is what they keep calling it.
Yep.
It's basically a consolidation of power and it's forcing some utopian ideals on the rest
of the world because we're a bunch of mindless sheep and we're supposed to behave and act
and do what they say.
That's what one world order is.
And yes, it results in millions of deaths.
If they have a...
Type in Bilderberg 2023, please, and see what that pulls up.
That's got it because they've got...
There are a lot of new heavy hitters that are showing up on this playing field.
Really?
Is AOC one of them?
No.
She would make it.
Click on that one right there.
She wouldn't make it yet.
Anybody on the squad on the Bilderberg?
Look at that.
Men in Black, JFK.
It's got the Skull and Bones, the Luminati, Federal Reserve, they even have...
What is the cross there?
It's the...
What's the OK sign?
White power?
No.
That's the 666 sign?
That's what they said they hold Grammy thing because he was doing this.
Yeah, I don't know what any of these symbols are.
On the top right next to the left of MIB, what is the cross?
Is that the Stone Temple Pilots?
No, God bless it.
It's the...
Men in Black?
The Knights Templars.
I hate you guys.
Yes.
That's what that is, isn't it?
Yes.
The Templars.
You got the Black Helicopters and you got the Lizard Kings next to it?
We've got UN.
That's the UN right there.
JFK, the Luther King.
Well, hell, even NASA.
Is that an Iguana?
Really?
Is that an Iguana with a crown on it?
Look, there are so...
An Iguana?
I think this is a perfect capture of a bunch of stuff because there's so many loose ends
that everybody...
Look, even in Egypt, for example, I think I brought this up on a podcast.
You guys are like, oh, show us the X-Fuse ethos.
But you know what?
NASA's got their fingers in so much.
NASA?
My question is...
Oh, yeah.
My question is, I can make this.
How do you validate this?
I can make this up.
Exactly.
This is so far-fetched.
But it's on Dr. Co.
Oh, then it's real.
Some of those things just make sense to me.
Let's back up a little bit.
My point about bringing all this shit up is that there are people out there.
They're just trying to control fucking everything.
I agree with that, too.
Let's jump on the Andrew Tate wagon for a second again.
He's in prison.
He is still in jail.
Unbelievable.
And look, they don't even have charges.
Is that true?
I think they...
That's absolutely true.
Yeah, I think they...
No, trafficking.
Human trafficking is what they charged him with.
They didn't charge him with it.
He has no charges.
This is in Hungary?
Or where is he?
This is in Romania.
Yeah, there are no charges put against him right now because there's no proof of anything.
All you have is hearsay.
You have one person that says something, a female that said that it was true.
And even...
What's his face?
Elon Musk.
He went...
How is he still tweeting?
Who?
Andrew Tate.
Well, they allow him access to phones as long as it's...
Because I see one every now and then come across.
He was just like, you know what?
He's in jail going, hey, guys, the food sucks here, man.
Well, basically he just says it's like...
Really?
That means he's not incarcerated.
Elon Musk said, yes, he is.
What Elon Musk said about Andrew Tate specifically was like, well, you know what?
They offered him a billion dollars to shut up and he didn't.
So now he's in jail.
Meaning you're an idiot.
You should have done that?
That's kind of what he's implying.
Well, maybe, maybe, but I mean...
That's bullshit, man.
I believe in freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, liberty and freedom.
But what I'm getting at is that he said it.
Elon Musk said they, who the fuck is they?
They offered him a billion dollars to shut the fuck up and he didn't.
Because look, honestly, there are a lot of it, and we've said this in a couple different
podcasts and I don't agree with a lot of the shit that he's done in his past with the sex
thing and the girls thing.
It's shady shit.
It's no question.
It is, because it's kind of like pornographic.
It's not shady.
It's immoral.
But you know what, he's had more than, he does more than that.
It's not just that.
He's a visionary for the male model, mentally and physically.
And then he's not saying to womanize people.
Well, that goes against the complete narrative these days of the feminist where you want
to get rid of the toxic masculinity and make a bunch of wussy ass men, which we're turning
into.
And that's what they said.
Well, I'm not.
I'm getting in.
I'm getting manlier every day.
My balls are swollen.
Oh, huge.
Oh my God.
Huge.
What?
I've never been more of a man than right now.
With three other, with two other guys, three other guys.
Is that why the German shepherd, female German shepherd plays that show?
You get the peanut butter.
This is all depressing talk.
We need positive talk.
But you know what?
The reality of it is reality and it's stuff that dudes like us need to talk about.
I know.
Because I get that.
It's like it's important.
People need to know.
I mean, this is all happening from the top down.
And how about how about stories of human triumph?
Well, hold on.
I want to get back real quick before we get off the whole EV vehicle thing.
There's another article I read that someone died.
Oh, sorry.
Something bad again.
We'll get to that.
Negative depression.
Go ahead.
It's a Tesla burst into flames.
It happens a lot.
And the amount of water it took to put this out.
Oh, because it's a battery fire.
They said that a normal and they were interviewing the fire department, the fire department,
they said on a typical car fire, we use about six thousand gallons of water to put it out
on this on this electric vehicle.
We used over thirty thousand gallons to put it out.
So don't they need some sort of like foam, like foam retardant or something?
They're not all staffed with that.
They all don't have it.
So they use water and they use thirty thousand gallons to put one car fire out.
Incredible.
That's like a pool.
Thirty thousand.
How many how many gallons is your pool hold?
That's about thirty thousand.
Twelve thousand.
Twelve.
So three of your pools.
Three of my pools on one car on one car.
So they've they've actually they've come out with some different stuff because specifically
because of that, and there's a there is a blanket that they're starting to bring out
on site.
And this blanket is just a it's just a heavy bunch of mothers.
Yeah.
They just pull the blanket over it and it is fixates the fire.
Yeah.
But how do you pull it over?
I mean, if it's with flames, I mean, it's pretty wide.
It's like you want to grab the corner and just like drops it.
That's like 20 foot wide.
Come on, guys.
One, two, three.
It's like I don't know.
It's like 20 foot wide, 30 foot wide.
It's a big ass blanket.
I've seen them do it on these little videos and they just there's a couple of guys that
run out there.
They covered up.
They drop it and it goes right out.
They say if you're going to put out fires, you you take the other than with the blanket.
Take the oxygen.
How hot do those batteries are?
Are they hotter than a normal fire?
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know.
I mean, is it so it's got to be it's got to be if it's a chemical fire.
Thirty thousand gallons of water because the chemical fire is what it is.
It's not a gasoline.
So you know, another chemical to do another thing is really, really interesting that never
sees the light of day.
So the national safety automobile safety, the people that give the NTSB.
Yes, they give the stars.
Correct.
Right.
They are they have they're lamenting about how EV vehicles are exceptionally heavy.
They are the batteries.
Yes.
They're saying they're worried that what would be a normal wreck between a pickup truck that's
EV and a regular sedan is not is very dangerous for for anybody up against the EV truck because
it's abnormally heavy.
Oh, yeah.
All right.
So do you see that anywhere as I would say to any of that?
But it's a problem.
I mean, even even my truck, if I ran into your Jetta.
Right.
Yes.
I'm now at several thousand pounds.
Like what is the average?
You're going to be squashed.
What's the average EV truck weight versus a regular truck weight?
Oh, it is.
It is.
It's a major difference.
So the major difference, the difference between the way the electric vehicle battery flame
can come Berg up to forty nine forty nine hundred degrees Fahrenheit.
Wow.
Now, FEMA says that traditional vehicles burn fifteen hundred.
Wow.
So three times more than three times.
That's what I mean.
Can you get close enough to that to put the blanket on it?
What was my question?
I mean, five thousand degrees is pretty fucking hot.
That's what I mean.
But at the same time, you know, I'm sure that they're going to build a big enough blanket
so that they can do it.
Plus, they're wearing fire retardant outfits.
We have those have a limit on them as well.
I'm sure it's probably five thousand one degrees.
No, it's probably fifteen hundred degrees because they go into houses and stuff like
that.
So what if they took an EV helicopter and dropped an EV blanket on an EV vehicle that's
burning?
So once you once you have airplanes that are battery and that thing crashes, what's that
going to look like?
Because that whole bottom of the plane is going to be batteries.
It's going to look horrific and it's going to waste so much.
How's he going to get off the ground?
It's going to get.
OK, you know, you need a 10 mile runway.
And to stop at the land, it's going to be it's going to be OK.
So we talked about it's going to catch fire when we talk about it.
We talk about advances in batteries.
This is where where this is.
There we go.
Hold on.
Electric vehicles weigh more and that has implications for safety.
Click on that one right there.
But it's CNN.
Well, yeah, CNN is fake.
Scroll down.
So yeah, look at the keep going.
They tend to talk about the regular size of these things and the weight of these things.
Why heavier is better, but only for those inside.
Right.
I mean, it's going to wreck.
Well, that's why I wore the typical wrecks between vehicles.
One EV one not is you lose.
That's why some people like me, you buy a big truck or a big SUV.
Well, but people want very fuel efficient.
So the small sedan drivers to give and take some electric cars are so heavy that they
risk crushing the smaller vehicles.
That's right.
So they got the head of the National Transportation Safety Board expressed concerns Wednesday
about the safety risks about the the the heavy electric vehicles pose if they collide with
lighter vehicles.
That's right.
So there's an official Jennifer Homonday raised this issue.
Yeah, it's one guy's just like that.
Like that F-150.
I have an F-150 that says this F-150 light anyways, about sixteen hundred more pounds
than my truck.
Wow.
That's like eighteen hundred pounds heavier.
That's like a whole other car.
Yes, almost.
Yeah.
That's a that's a small sedan on top of your your truck.
Yes.
So hold on.
So the noted that the F-150 Lightning EV pickup is two to three thousand pounds.
All right.
Two to three thousand pounds heavier heavier than the regular version.
Yes.
And that's basically the weight of another car.
Let's go to the top.
It had how much they say they're roughly thirty percent heavier.
It says weighs over nine thousand pounds.
That's the new Hummer.
The Hummer EV.
That is a ridiculous car, though.
Nine thousand pounds.
That's a tank.
That's a ridiculous car.
That's like a fricking tank.
Did you see the video where Biden was driving one of those?
The chassis on that has to be incredible.
Incredible.
Just to handle the weight, the shocks, the suspension.
Yeah.
I mean, if you were to, let's just say, jump over a 12 inch drop.
Yeah, like Ivo Knievel.
No, I'm just saying like a drop and have that chassis drop down.
Just the weight of it is going to fucking.
I also read I read an article that if you get one of these, the guy got one or it was
test driving it.
He's like, this costs more to charge than to fill it up with gas.
Yes.
And it was well over one hundred dollars to charge it one hundred percent.
The battery.
It wasn't even that vehicle.
Did you read the article that anybody, any EV vehicle, it was more expensive in a hundred
year.
Yep.
It's more expensive to charge the electronic vehicle than it is to fill up at the gas station.
Because they are they figured it out.
I can make money and they're raising the price of electricity at these stops.
Yes.
Yeah, but there's a lot of places that offer free fills like go to Kruger, hook up your
EV machine and use their electricity for now.
I mean, people do that.
I park in those spots.
I know.
Well, we were somewhere today.
Did we go somewhere today?
You guys didn't invite me to know.
I didn't go anywhere today.
Now, I went somewhere just recently and I saw some dude filling up with his EVs like
he was kind of struggling to get his little.
A lot of those places.
I went to Kroger.
That's what it was.
I went to Kroger.
He plugged it in.
I was looking at him.
Well, you get three percent out of that.
I called him that.
No, I was just thinking it.
You're going to get three miles out of that.
But again, here's the thing, guys.
I get where this is going.
It is good for the environment.
Like like it's not the concept of getting.
I know.
Hear me out.
What is where we're headed is in a good direction in terms of like, you know, getting off of
fossil fuels and using rechargeable batteries.
But the thing is, we're not there.
The technology is not there.
Right now is more harmful, more harmful than good.
So fossil fuels are going to be replaced by rare earth minerals.
What's the difference that we're going to deplete far faster than fossil fuels?
You're still dredging it right on that.
You're dredging and destroying the earth to get to these things.
We're talking about it's the same day.
Biden said we're we.
Hey, man.
We still need oil and gas for 10 years.
Ten years.
But look, in 10 years, we're not going to have enough cobalt on this planet.
No.
Period.
I mean, think about it.
I actually have no idea how much cobalt we have.
Oh, six pounds.
Most of it.
Six point eight.
Fuck.
We got the last of it.
No, but look, I mean, think about it.
I mean, if the majority of the cobalt on the planet is coming out of one location, one
small location.
Come on.
Yeah, but there's so many people there digging it out.
It's fine.
You guys hear about me going on even faster.
You guys hear about in China, South America, how they have found ancient civilizations?
Yes.
Aliens.
Yeah, they did.
Oh, God.
I tell you what.
Are you serious?
I am absolutely serious.
They found they found.
I can't not do this one.
I can't do this.
I can't do this again.
They found I literally I literally cannot do this large towns of these buildings under
the floor under the jungle.
OK, you I tell you, I am editing one.
Yeah, I can't do this right now.
I am editing one where we just beat the shit.
Yeah, we're beat the shit.
We're about to do it again.
Conspiracies and alien cities.
It's not a conspiracy.
I cannot do this.
This shit is real.
Sean, you have to get off of this.
You guys have to educate yourselves.
We just beat the crap out of you.
I can't.
I was just like, I'd literally rather talk about Kamala Harris than his hidden civilizations.
It's camel toe Harris.
Whatever Megalopolis.
All right.
Look, we don't need to do this.
Please just take it off the screen.
You're giving me stress.
I just think there are a lot of dudes like us out there that do appreciate the unknown
of history.
And then when you when you stumble on it and the way they stumble on this stuff is amazing.
One of the ways they stumbled on it, there was a there was a high school student that
learned by looking at maps of South America that a lot of these a lot of these little
cities that they had known were part of a constellation.
And the kid pointed out to one of the instructors, a star right there.
Yeah.
He said, this should be a star there.
Well, sure enough, they went to that place and there was a huge place right there.
And it turned out that's exactly what it was.
So they started mapping out other areas and trying to strategize where these constellations
and what they look like.
And they started finding a bunch.
They found like 10 different ones all from this kid.
Do they name them after him?
Was his name Brad?
Was it Steve?
His name is Jeff and Paul.
Steve one, Steve two, three, four, all these little hidden.
I thought it was interesting.
And it took like a dude like us that that looked outside the box outside the box and
just kind of like looked at stuff as like, hey, this is this works.
This works.
I think how the the the the pyramids put together, you know, the the periods are aligned perfectly
like Orion's belt.
When you look at the stars perfectly, I don't think I've said this before.
I don't think we give enough credit to the brains of the day.
They figured shit out.
Well, they may not have had the like the Babylonians and Assyrians.
Yes.
Sumatra.
It's a Sumatra.
Yes.
No.
No, what I said were two legitimate civilizations.
What you came up with total bullshit.
I couldn't even fucking swallow my purpose.
No, but you're right.
I mean, they were doing full flesh like math and shit, man.
Algebra.
Yeah, I don't think we give enough credit because they didn't have the technology of
today.
So how could they do this?
Right now?
They did it.
They had an abacus.
Well, they they they there's there's something called something.
History Channel.
Oh my God, it's part of geometry and it's geometric figures.
I forget the magical word for it.
One of the guys was on Joe Rogan.
It was it's called some sort of geometry and it's these specific shapes and there's guys
that are fucking with this.
Is it called?
You know what?
I don't even want to talk about it because you guys are just going to fuck with me.
So heck is he John?
No, it's not.
It's not.
You're not going to find any of that in there.
It is.
I would say.
It's not going to be on us.
No, you guys just change the subject.
I'll look at something else.
Because what you say because you know we're going to shred you on this.
When there's some sort of shark attack or something, you guys were going to talk about
some do I want?
I hold on.
I want to talk about stories of human triumph, which is in Sumatran is real.
I know it's Sumatra.
I lived on the island of Java right next to Sumatra.
So you're giving you said it was fake.
So it's not a civilization called Sumatran's.
Anyway, it was a Sumatran reggaetang.
No, stop.
A tiger, an elephant.
Stop.
All right.
So what I'd like to talk about is a very interesting human triumph story.
Turkey, right?
Turkey is Turkey had the Syrians.
Turkey and Syria had a massive earthquake.
And they're saying what?
Seven point eight.
I know.
And what are they at now?
Eight thousand eleven thousand eleven thousand dead.
Shocking.
Check this.
So they are naturally asking for I mean, there's how many tens of thousands of people trapped
under rubble.
Right.
Yeah.
And they're asking for assistance from everyone.
Right.
So they are geometry, sacred.
Okay.
Thank you.
Perfect.
And so they asked for help from Israel.
Israel.
Right.
So Israel, you know, they had the technology there.
They're a rapid response team.
They go in there and they're like kicking ass, like rescued like ten people in like
eight hours.
Oh, they're warriors.
They're warriors.
And so they this great.
I mean, like normally, I mean, do you think this will change relationships over there?
No.
So check this out.
So Turkey is Muslim.
Syria is Muslim.
Right.
Arch enemies of of of Israel.
Right.
Maybe not Turkey, not politically.
But anyway, so Syria asked for help from Israel.
Israel is forming a team to go in there.
Right.
And Israel's very vocal about it.
We want to save lives.
We're so happy to come in here and help.
And when it became public, the Syria asked Israel for help.
The theory was like, no, we didn't.
No, we didn't.
That's fake.
Really?
I mean, but serious.
I mean, Israel's like, OK, whatever, we're going to go in there and help you anyway,
because we know you can't to your people.
We can't you know, not unacceptable to have Israeli people or the Jews.
Crazy if they go in there.
They do a great job.
They save a bunch of people.
That's what they're doing.
Shot.
Oh, no, they won't.
See, that's what I'm thinking.
No, they won't do that.
I don't think they get shot.
But I'm hoping maybe maybe maybe not with the current government, but maybe with the
folks that are there that they helped.
Maybe that starts something.
They know it was goodwill, man.
There's no better goodwill than that.
Right.
I mean, to have teams converge and help the face your country in the face of this devastation.
And you see this morning they showed some videos of them pulling some children out of
the rubble, this big apartment complex that had collapsed.
And you've probably got a thousand people out there and they pull these children out
and they're just like, oh, thank God.
And it's just like they're so joyful and so thankful.
Everyone involved.
Oh, my God.
And it's just like you could hear them.
The kids come out.
They're crying.
They're they're thankful they're alive and they're smiling.
It's just like and they rush them off to be, you know, as a woman that gave birth and the
infant was pulled out and she died.
The mom died, but I think the infant survived.
I know.
That's incredible.
I mean, there's a lot of crazy stuff going on and it's just, you know, it's it sucks.
I've seen some footage like the day it happened or the day after where the the buildings that
remained standing all of a sudden fell down.
Oh, yeah.
It's aftershocks.
Yeah.
So you have these people that are in cars just going on the street.
All of a sudden, the whole building goes.
So that's what they that's what happened.
Right.
So whatever doesn't fall, they immediately tell people, do not go back inside.
Right.
Because they are compromised and they know there's going to be aftershocks.
And so then the aftershocks happen for hours and hours and days and weeks and weeks.
Oh, absolutely.
When it's a seven point eight and then it follows with a with a with a six point one
aftershock, a six point one aftershock by itself.
This is a testimony to the actual structures that they build that are collapsing.
And this is why you have code compliance.
And these, you know, look, this this Turkey third world country, all bullshit, but aside,
they may be established, they may have whatever I don't give a fuck.
So when they're building these these buildings and you don't have someone with right, that's
the reputable credentials to go in there and actually build it structurally sound.
I mean, it's amazing when you when you think of the some of the structures built in China
and some of those buildings from fucking two, three thousand years ago.
And they've got that centerpiece that goes up the building that allows the whole building
to sway in the event of an earthquake.
It's I mean, to go back to the ancient shit and bring it forth to now alien technology.
It's not alien.
It's just it's just it's good education.
You fucking dick.
It's it's good.
It's just stuff that's awesome.
That's not really told right now.
I mean, how many buildings do we have like that?
They tried to build some sort of skyscraper that has some sort of leadway on the bottom
where there's some movement that goes up and down.
So that has been a Japanese technology for for decades and decades.
They do that in Mexico City.
Yeah.
So that's where literally the building is designed to to to vibrate in sections.
So the top will vibrate, the middle will vibrate, the bottom part will vibrate.
And that keeps the building from losing structural integrity.
And so that is so that was that was one thing.
The immediate thing that I was thinking of, I was like, man, how much of what Turkey's
code?
Yeah.
You know, how much?
Unfortunately, that's what a bull's down to is that they've got a bunch of shit.
I was going to ask this question.
So that was a seven.
What was it?
Seven eight.
Yeah.
OK, so seven eight.
If that happens now, now keep in mind, seven eight deep in the earth is different than
seven eight right up near the surface.
It is a hundred percent depends on I think seven eight is catastrophic.
I was in a seven eight.
I was in a seven eight in Tokyo.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
I was in a seven point.
I think a seven point seven.
So that so it doesn't it doesn't there with your tier ones.
It doesn't mean it doesn't mean that it's like total devastation.
You're calling Turkey a bunch of peas right now.
No, no, no, no, I'm not.
I'm saying it matters.
It matters the depth of when it happens.
Anyway, I get you.
So when I was going to ask is, let's say I don't know what the depth of this one was,
but it was catastrophic.
So let's take that same earthquake and put it in San Francisco.
San Francisco.
Thank you.
Oh, great.
I think I think I think you lose a lot.
Yeah.
What happens?
I think you lose a lot because you still have a lot of old buildings out there.
So you remember when there was an earthquake in the whole highway system?
That's what I mean.
I think the highway system would collapse.
Yes, it did.
It did.
It did sandwich people.
How many people died in that?
I don't know.
That was during the World Series.
Yeah.
That's right.
That Candlestick Park.
Yeah, it happened during the World Series.
It went black.
But but I OK, so I think I think it would be catastrophic, but it wouldn't be like
Turkey.
No, it would not.
But you'd still have thousands of people dying.
You would.
I think so.
Even in L.A. because like L.A. San Francisco.
You have millions of people living there.
Yeah.
You'd have a lot of building.
You would have a lot of structures that would collapse.
You know a lot of all fences that would fall there's a lot of stuff. I mean at some point. It doesn't matter
How well you build?
You know your stuff well, let's let's let's put this one. Okay put it in, Tokyo
Then let's put on the east coast of Florida where you have all these buildings that are already structural
Oh shit fucked up because of them damn after after that one that one condo complex fell
Yeah, there's a lot of issues there, and I think it's strictly related to the seawater and the you know mixture
Shifting of the sand well thankfully the east coast of the United States is not on the ring of fire, right?
Wow this is not turkey, but do you remember the earthquake in Kathmandu?
In Nepal yeah, have you seen the footage of that no?
No, it's catastrophic just like this because the buildings are made out of cinder blocks right there mud blocks or whatever
They're just thrown together. Yeah pull up Kathmandu earthquake pictures. I that's spelled
KH
K a th Kathmandu
Paul earthquake also called the the Gorka earthquake. Yeah, it was it was catastrophic. We look at some of these
Oh, wow complete disintegration
thousand people died
600,000 structures
600,000 structures yeah think of that so it's amazing only 9,000 people died or killed oh
My god look at that
The other thing thing left standing is that church right there six hundred church
Yeah, what is that right there? That's the only thing standing. I don't know
Wow those are people
No, but I watched a documentary
That was a 7.8 on the rector's go. I watched a documentary about this and
it impacted this whole area and there were people up in the mountains and
Impacted all kinds of folks, but they had a story here some guy and his wife owned a hotel right and
It was one of these and he was out
with one of his daughters doing something and his wife and his other kids were the hotel managing it right and it
completely just
Collapse came down like into individual bricks right? Yeah, there's like four stories
Pile of bricks. Yeah, they all died. Yeah, they all died
They found they found his wife and his either son or daughter
Trying to run up the stairs or something like that to try to get out of there and they found them just together
but they also had some footage of
the Americans came in to him and
Help save a bunch of people they showed some folks getting pulled out of just just complete destruction
You're like, how does anyone survive right? How do you how do you how do you survive being?
Buried under 800 pounds of bricks, correct?
Correct, correct and one of them was in that hotel. He was a worker in that hotel and they pulled him out and
You know, he was real close to the mother and the son. Anyway, it was a good documentary
I reckon I have to find out what it was called
but it was good and it was
Just the destruction was was amazing
You know, I think the bottom line for you to survive something like that
You just have to be incredibly lucky in that in that
In that in that
In that the weight is somehow displaced on
You on you right? It's no different than that. Remember remember the 9-eleven, right? Right you had people
They literally pulled out of the rubble of a freaking how many stories?
I mean that thing the weight of that there should be no reason why anybody is alive under there, correct?
And yet somebody was in a stairwell where when it came down like Lincoln logs
Yeah, exactly. It created a little pocket a little pocket. Perfect. Perfect work
It's just a matter of can I survive until they get me out? That's right
And there's no different you have pockets of bricks you have pockets of I mean, that's not to say that their legs aren't crushed
Right, right. The legs are crushed, but they're breathing and they're alive and if somebody can get to them
You know, they have broken all sorts of broken shit going on right, but they're they're alive
Right. So well, I mean all hers out to everyone out there and you don't really know
I mean this is gonna happen forever
No, yeah
It went in the thing about this is that when you have such tragedies that occur like this
It's just kind of like when you start thinking about the grand scope of life and you think about what the fuck man was China
What are you doing flying balloons over us causing problems? I mean, what are you thinking?
There's no problems to deal with yeah, we've got yeah, but really but human history has always been at war with each other. Yes
It's like if you want to fly a balloon over us just to have it the conversation, you know
Hey, you mind if I spy on you? Well, I mean just I mean, yeah
Well, I mean, they're exactly are they doing they're preparing for war is what they're doing
No, they're they're plotting real estate because they want to purchase it and figure out where to buy it
Yeah, but it's all the groundwork for preparing for war in my opinion. I think it's gonna be like what was that movie?
Red dawn red dawn
Was that was Patrick Swayze? I was North Korea. It was North Korea at the time
Right. We can hunt we can fish we can stay up here a long long time. Yeah
bitch I
Don't think they said bitch. There's such a great movie
I saw that fairly recently the new one or the old one know the old one course the old one screw the new one
They have a new one. Yeah
Why don't you play store anyway, so, you know what one more thing going back to Turkey? So that's not on the ring of fire
What is?
Where where are their fault lines?
So, okay, obviously there's one so in general you guys you you guys remember
Science in high school tectonic plate tectonic plates tectonic plates, right? The ring of fire is
That the the edge of the tectonic plate that goes all the way around Southeast Asia, North Asia
All around the Western the Western Pacific Rim. There you go. There's where we go right there
There it is because there's one not too far from Istanbul, right and it's actually further south. So that makes sense
Okay that you know why that makes sense, you know the Himalayans
The Himalayans are built on a tectonic plate. That's why they're so big. That's why they're so tall
That's why that cat man do that's why the Himalayans exist. You know what there was a
In that documentary I watched there was a village that was in the mountains and they they were following some hikers and
they're videoing and stuff. Yeah, and there was a video and
They were at a different lookout and they came back and the city was gone
Yeah, everyone was dead and the night before they were having this huge celebration and they're videoing it
He's getting it was an earthquake. There's that's the same earthquake and they came back and the entire village was gone
Everyone was dead. I'm telling you it's coming everyone. Well, and that's coming to our West Coast by the way
When a tan hits or nine hits?
It's it doesn't matter what you build and how how wiggly it is
That's only secures the longevity of the Republican Party
How many how many votes they have 26?
Wow, really you took it political
Harsh harsh
I mean look, okay. So we're looking at the tectonic plate map right now, right? So there's the ring of fire
Iceland is like in bad shape
Right right right little of it. Yeah, you're not kidding and look at the look at the tectonic plague right through the military Mediterranean Sea
Yeah, I didn't know that was there like that. That's the Cocos plate. Keep in mind
Keep in mind that when that stuff happens
So remember remember the the the massive tsunami
That was created by an earthquake that killed 200,000 people
An earthquake that killed 200,000 people those in the Indian Ocean. Yes, it was Indian Ocean and it hit yep. It hit Thailand
Yeah, it hit India that killed hundreds of thousands 200,000 people. Yes credible incredible. We think it smelled like
God what's wrong celery? Do you remember? Do you remember the woman? I think we talked about this, but do you remember there was a resort?
I mean there was a million resorts
I got hit and demolished and there was a woman that in the devastation went out to the beach a white woman and she was
Laying down and sunning on the beach while people were there yelling at her
No, well, yeah while they were literally pulling like half buried people out of the sand and see that
Oh, yeah, and they were just sudden herself. She they were dogging her and I was thinking to myself. You know what?
If what can I guess she could run around and help them do that as well, right?
But she was in shock and she was like like the hotel was demolished and she was alive and and I felt I felt
bad for her because I didn't see they were expecting her to
I don't know. I don't know what they were taking. Yeah, I don't know what they were expecting her to do, but
It was a surreal moment where she was just like oh my god
You know what I mean surrounded by devastation and so she just went down to the beach probably just to get some Zen to
to like
like well was she all like
dolled up
No, she was just I don't think she was in a bikini or anything
I mean she just she was down on the beach and she just laid down on the beach and was like
Sundailing, you know and people just like it was like the is like typical Western
Western whatever right and I was like man, I I don't know what any of us would do in that moment
It would you just stumble around in shock. I never know. It's like when 9-eleven happening
Everybody was stumbling around Manhattan in shock
Right. I mean they were just stumbling around with like, you know dust all over them and yeah
It makes me wonder looking at these fault lines
That are surrounding the continent essentially the whole world. Yeah. Well, I mean but around all the seven. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah
No, you're right
It's the the west coast of the United States for sure, but it's it's interesting how it splits right down the middle
It's amazing how all these
Continents are formed. I mean Australia goes right around it
it's almost like you know, you just kind of wonder with if something were to open up and
a cavern in the earth crust and to suck up all that water, you know, what would that do to the
What would that do to the land? I mean, it's obviously kind of like you're kind of like your epoxy on your desk
My point yeah, well it's sucked down. Yeah. Yeah, so
I put resin on the desk and yeah, it dried up
But what it did is it opened up it opened up new land masses is what I'm getting
Oh, so would lower the yeah, I mean like the what you call it the coach coach what you call the cock the
You were talking about your cock in the middle of the Mediterranean. Oh the cocos plate. There you go
The cocos plate. There you go. The cocos imagine if that thing were to drop down or open up and it would all of a sudden
develop, you know, it doesn't
What I think that the tectonic plate like where they join it doesn't open up and suck the ocean into the chasm
I mean, I don't think it does that
Why not? Well, I guess you know if it's a if it's a
You know a 30
Instead of a seven point seven. Well, I mean we're never gonna know because the middle of the the ocean or the sea
Oh, you know, it's way out there
What if something what happened to the Atlantic Ocean? I mean the the earth is built. I mean look there's many crusts in there
There's there could be something I'm just saying I know you know the lithosphere
You know it drops down into so I have seen this exact diagram and it's the no sphere. I
Have seen this exact diagram when I took geology in college. I
Don't think they open I think they just like this
They just just ram into each other they ram into that's how a lot of friction. Yeah, it's friction
It's not they're pulling apart. Well, and not only that but but even on the the far left
The far left one where we're when you have the the rain new land is created
Yes, the two light little spheres are pushed together
So, okay. So remember if you remember tectonic plates in science class, they're conveyor belts, right?
so they're moving they're moving like conveyor belts and
On on the on the point where two two conveyor belts are coming together
It's creating new land and it's pushing up pushing up pushing up and pushing out and then on the other side
It's diving down on the outside edges. It's diving down and circling around
So that's what's creating this movement in plates and and when they slip suddenly
I mean they're moving constantly right very slowly, but when they catch and then they slip that's when an earthquake happens
Does that make sense? Yeah
So I still think there could be some sort of cavernous area where we could lose a gazillion billion trillion
gallons of water
We probably could but remember whenever wherever those places are opening up. There's new magma
That's magma. I knew you can do that. I did it with you
Magma magma, what is the movie magma?
Where do we keep hearing that it might as well? That's it a movie. Is it a movie? Yeah, back of my magma
anyway
fan it's fascinating tectonic plates and in the way and
The way the Hawaiian Islands have been formed
It's amazing. It's a soft spot in the mantle and
The the in the conveyor belts moving right?
so you have magma that comes up through the hole and
Builds up builds up builds up and and finally gets so big that it peaks out of the ocean. That's a volcano
Well, yes, yes. Yes, yes
Yes, and then it moves and then it moves and then another one comes up and then another one comes up and it moves and now
You have these
Islands islands that are all volcanic in the Azores. Yes, it's incredible
Think about how long very informative think about how long that takes to form at least a year
I was thinking I was thinking seven months
Well, six and a half six months two weeks
All right, we got Valentine's poppin up on this really really soon. I don't know if we have any plans
We have no fucking plan. I'm thinking maybe some tortillas and some spam
I'm totally in that would be so romantic low sodium spam with that
All right. Well, you know what this double barrel Rebecca Creek has really served me well about the jam on it
You guys are almost done. I need to dive on mine done
I guess are tapping out. It was a great
Massly fulfilling show show show show show
Science yeah
Well, I hope I hope in our I hope we enlightened you know
At least something to go research because you know, we don't you know, we really know
Oh
If you are interested in anything we talked about feel free to go researching
Yeah, and you know what we could talk about sacred geometry. Maybe on the one the next box
Yeah, that one I didn't I've never heard of that phrase at all sacred geometry
Geometry, it's a real thing. All right
Dudes like us I'm Sean. I am Paul and I'm Jeff and shout out to our mr. Podcast producer senior Austin
Yeah. Thank you, sir
