Celebrating Life's Milestones and Pondering the Icebound Quest for Immortality
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
As we raise a toast to milestones like my sister Roxanne Ruby's retirement and my daughter's return, we grapple with the icy enigmas of cryogenics. Imagine pausing life's clock – what would it mean to awaken in a future where time has left you behind? This episode isn't just about the science of sub-zero slumber; it's a tapestry of personal joy, comic book nods, and the profound questions that come with the territory of indefinitely extending one's existence.
Have you ever chuckled over a mix-up between Marvel and DC, only to spiral into a debate over ethics and animal testing? That's the rollercoaster we're on, moving from the lighthearted to the serious, as we connect artificial gravity's role in space travel to the ethical implications of medical research. And, as if that's not enough, we ponder whether we'll be clocking in for a job in the afterlife or crafting emails with our minds thanks to Elon Musk's brain-computer interfaces.
The finale of our journey is as deep as it gets – we contemplate immortality through the lens of cryopreservation. What if the essence of who we are could outlast our physical form, or if our digital selves could forge across the cosmos? We wrap up the discussion with musings on the cycle of life, reincarnation, and the eternal human narrative. Prepare to be intrigued, amused, and maybe even a bit bewildered, as we explore the vast implications of life extended by ice.

Exploring Cryogenics and Its Implications
Speaker 1Cotman, crawford and the Jersey Guy podcast. Hey everybody, kenny Cotman, lewis Crawford and I'm Tom Remmage, the Jersey Guy.
Speaker 2Yo, what is going on? My peoples Not much, man, I'm more than good today. How you doing, sir Lou. Good you. Yeah, I'm chilling like a mother fucker like always, Nice. Enjoying myself chilling enjoying life, whatever, whatever. Yeah, what did I do? What have I done lately? Where did I go Shout out to my other little sister, ms Roxanne? She retired, bro, she was a sergeant detective. Yeah, so that's my honey, and proud of her Shout out, she's chilling, yes, nice. So Ms Roxanne Ruby, good stuff, baby, congratulations, enjoy retirement man Earned it yes definitely.
Speaker 2Yeah, she was a cop for a long time City of Newburgh, then down to Rockland County and she ran up to the ranks and you know she's the shit. Yeah man, but she is man, yeah, so big shout out nothing but love, yes, congrats. Yeah, and everything else is peace with everybody. Yeah, yeah. Oh no, my daughter. She's moving down back down here. She's stationed in Buffalo. Now she's coming back down to this part of town.
Speaker 3They moved her back.
Speaker 2Yeah, so she's getting you know just stationed, relocated, whatever. So she'll be home. Yeah, I was fucking excited for that one, that's cool, so yeah yeah, yeah. So I guess for me it's been just tight busy bro. Yeah, it's been a crazy beginning of the year, January. Well, February into March has been running back and forth and stuff. So, yeah, we're chilling, so I'm happy.
Speaker 1Very good man.
Speaker 2Yes, all right, that's enough about me, yeah well, technically this podcast is about Kenny, yeah, yeah, I'm just saying there's many of you guys who want to live forever.
Speaker 3Yes, yes. He wants to find a way where he can have to die and just be able to live, whether that means being downloaded into a computer or freeze his body or something.
Speaker 2You know, so we do it. On cryogenics yes, that's our topic today.
Speaker 1Cryogenics. Cryogenics.
Speaker 3That's where they actually freeze you right, right, extreme temperatures and keep you in preservation for until the time comes, with whatever it's you passed away of or Right if there's a cure or something.
Speaker 2They can bring you back, so then they can download you into the idea, or is it more to that too? Well, people that just wanted to live forever. So you're looking at all the super rich people that were like I don't want to die what? Can we do so? You know they.
Speaker 1Or is it going to be like in demolition man, when we freeze the criminals and cops?
Speaker 2Well, that was the initial idea, right, but none of the rehab, the way that they did it in the movie. So it was supposed to be just you are frozen. And then, when time comes that if you were frozen because you were, you were sick that then they would revive you when there was a cure for a year, sick Right, they would treat you Right, and then you'd be, you know, cured, and whatever the problem I believe was, they couldn't figure out how to revive you. Yeah, because everything's frozen.
Speaker 3So they have to let you thought technically Right.
Speaker 2So then it's hard to throw you out, right? And that's what we're going to be, that's what our research is telling us now, right? So then, what did you read about that?
Speaker 3Did you get?
Speaker 2to that far down the thing yeah this thing is great, you know.
Speaker 3I went on and checked it out you know at his call. Cryogenics is the study of how materials behave in extreme low temperatures, typically below a negative 150 degrees Celsius, negative 238 degrees Fahrenheit. It's a field that encompasses various disciplines, including psych, Like physics, chemistry, engineering. One of the most well known application of cryogenics is the preservation of biological tissue through a process called cryopreservation Right Cryopreservation.
Speaker 2Because I want us to be here forever. So then, now right, and preserve.
Speaker 3That's the whole idea. Right, so they got to be able to preserve it. My concern is how does the tissue don't, how doesn't it break down? You know what I mean. I guess because it has to be at that extreme temperature that stops it from breaking down at some point. Or can it still break down even though it's under that particular? How long can they keep it?
Speaker 2That's what the issues are now Right, because we don't, we don't, we still don't know, without throwing somebody out, how well it is, so like so example, somebody that's now been frozen for the last 20 years, we don't know what it's going to look like when we bring them back.
Speaker 2So now, even if they come back, or if they well, yeah, well, even if we just thought out, you know what the room, the body back to room temperature, you know, we don't even know what the people's mind is Like. We don't know all that stuff, you know, and that's what it is. So so now we don't know about the tissue breakdown because they don't even, I don't think they've ever thought anybody out to find out.
Speaker 1Also, like that's the thing too, like maybe how they're frozen needs to be a certain way.
Speaker 2Right, you know it's like maybe they got freezing up is bad.
Speaker 1Maybe slowly freezing is better. I don't know. They probably. I think it is a slow freeze.
Speaker 3Yeah, but let's not put that down to the side. I definitely think it is at its core. We already read that Cryopreservation involves cooling living tissue by very low temperatures to halt all biological activity, essential putting calls into a state of suspended animation. This has profound implications for organ transplantation, as it could potentially extend the viability of organs tissues, saving countless lives. So I guess from what I'm reading here is basically, they could still be able to use what they froze to help other people, right?
Speaker 2to do other things, so if I would have to do like the cloning and all that other stuff. So now that's actually not a bad idea actually.
Speaker 3That would be kind of groovy. Well, the person volunteers for that and says, hey, I want my body to be used to help other people Right donate it to science. Yeah, or use my heart, use my liver, it's all good, take it, use it.
Speaker 2Yeah, when you want to be an organ donor and such.
Speaker 2So now there was a middle aged woman in LA that was stored out and then was buried because her body didn't have whatever it was and she just didn't bring her back. So now the first person was back. In April 66, the first human body was frozen. It had been involved for two months by being placed in a liquid nitrogen and stored by being placed in liquid nitrogen and stored at just above freezing. So I guess the liquid nitrogen is what it is and if they're involved, that means that they've got the liquid nitrogen running through the veins, or you know that. That's what froze them.
Speaker 3Yeah, I don't know if this is actually in the actual. I think everything is still in there, but I don't think they empty you out. Yeah, that's, I think you're definitely, you're all put into it, or somehow it just encases you in like a. Yeah you know, I can't, I can't imagine the process on how they would do that.
Speaker 2Yeah, see so, no human being. But it's gotta be precise, right, exactly. So. No human being has ever been deliberately cryogenically frozen, thawed and brought back to life so I had, I knew a kid that was frozen.
Speaker 3She took these, froze them right, put them in the freezer, like put them in the thing, freeze them and then form out for some reason, and then they would come back and they would live for some reason and they would fly.
Speaker 2Yeah, for some reason.
Speaker 1Well, that's actually, I think, in nature that happens. That's how, when they're hibernating, they freeze.
Speaker 2That's when they hibernate.
Speaker 1They actually go to hibernate.
Speaker 3Very good point. So they very good point. Is it the same with insects? Because usually insects do die off at the end of the year, but the ones that like are you know, that's where they come from you know, for the whole winter they hibernate, Right right.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's in that, but I think Something that frogs too.
Speaker 1Frogs can actually freeze.
Speaker 3Yeah and they come back. Let's just have a capability to do that down in Florida, Like if it gets too cold down they fall out of the trees. And then, when it does warm up, they come back.
Speaker 1It's weird, so I'm sure they're using insects and dead hives.
Speaker 3That as well as to research the technology. Look, why do the animals keep on doing it? Why can an insect do it? Right? They're definitely looking into that, to show, to figure that out and get us, or a human being, to do the same thing Right.
Speaker 2That's like in Spider-Man. Spider-man, that's where the yeah shit's come up.
Speaker 1I was going to say Dr Octopus, but not him.
Speaker 2It was a croc killer croc he was. The scientist lost his arm.
Speaker 3Right and he wanted to get it back and then it turned him into a croc Right and the only time he had a appendage. No, killer croc was Batman. It was a killer croc.
Speaker 2Yeah, it was Batman. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1I'm sorry for the fans, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3No, that's right, that was Batman. Yeah, dr Croc yeah.
Speaker 2Dr Croc. Yeah, no, but that's you know. But the point is just that you know that's that's what made people, the humans, try to do it, that's what made the scientists do it, because if the animals could do this, if insects could do this, then you know why can't we the death of it you're going to be doing?
Debating Cryogenics and Future Possibilities
Speaker 2research on that as well. Yeah, so you know you have to. Everybody wants to live forever. Well, people just want to live longer, and you know how better to live longer than to turn around and freeze yourself be frozen. You know what I mean? Right, exactly, you know. I still say I'd rather be downloaded into a cyborg. So, it's called the Lizard.
Speaker 3Yeah, the Lizard, Okay the Lizard. There you go, people yes. There you go.
Speaker 1To Lizard.
Speaker 3To all our fans. Sorry, correct it, I'm Stanley.
Speaker 2Yep, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3That's all right, you know listen, you watch both. You know, yeah, you know, jumping from right. Hey, you know what?
Speaker 1I do have to say, as someone who's a big fan into something now especially, I have to put it about like super into.
Speaker 3Star Wars. It's just funny how we.
Speaker 1If I hear someone say something wrong in Star Wars, I'm like my god, that's not right.
Speaker 2So you know what. That's why we apologize. I apologize. You might be a hardcore Spider-Man fan. We know everything. You listen and be like. He got that wrong. I'm sorry, I'm admitting so, lizard.
Speaker 3I beg your pardon and I'd say listen, you do Marvel, you do DC. Then you watch some of the things and you mix things up. Sometimes you mix it up.
Speaker 2Again apologies, but anyway.
Speaker 1so the point was that in that it's funny how we're bringing comics up In the cryogenesis Right because it's in the comics.
Speaker 2So the way that In the Spider-Man comic the origin is that the doctor lost his arm, was trying to bring it back, help people get their limbs back, and that's how he became Lizard.
Speaker 3And he tested it on himself.
Speaker 2And he tested it on himself and it went backwards. Yeah, just Well it didn't go backwards, because he got his arm back.
Speaker 3But it changed his.
Speaker 2But it changed his.
Speaker 3Only when he was the Lizard, though.
Speaker 2Right, because so, yeah, so when he turned back, he didn't have his arm. He didn't have his arm. Yeah, but I'm saying that what the problem was, and that might be something I can't even say, it's like that. But mixing the Find out whatever gene or.
Speaker 3Yeah, I think that was just something they used for the story. Yeah, for the show.
Speaker 2But I mean, even if it came out to be true, so that then now you're going to turn around and do these things, you know there might be some side effects. Yeah right, so again. So now we said that the insects they hibernate, and such, when they hibernate their bodies, their chemical in their bodies makes it so that they can. They'll be frozen through the winter and then come back in the spring. Certain animals and stuff that you can, I said that. But so bears hibernate, raccoons don't right, they just not turn over the but you know, but still, like I said, like, frogs hibernate insects, so that then when they come back in springtime, that's the whole thing is.
Speaker 2So then people just wanted to try that, people wanted to see it and I said I personally wouldn't have done that. That's a little bit extra. But you know, yeah, I mean, would you do it, tom what Be frozen?
Speaker 1No, no, not for me. I don't. I don't know. I just think it's a weird thing to want to live forever and like it just seems like so much work to prolong my life. How much longer? You know what I mean. Like are they gonna?
Speaker 3Oh, I'm having a little technical difficulties here. Oh, like a gangsta, what's up bitches? So Mike's, Hold the mic. All right, I'm out.
Speaker 2Lose mic stand.
Speaker 3At least you can do that with it. They had some technical difficulties, yeah.
Speaker 2But now, yeah, so we're good, though, so we're good.
Speaker 1I don't know. I just feel like it just seems like a lot of work to freeze someone. It's like, oh my God.
Speaker 2I'm dying.
Speaker 1I'm dying of cancer. I'm 70 years old right it's like you're frozen in time for 50 or 60 years or 100 years or 200 years, and then they throw you out to live another 10 years.
Speaker 2It's kind of weird.
Speaker 1And then you don't have. And then like is anybody you know gonna be around? You're gonna be alone. No, buddy, you're gonna be by yourself. It's so weird, I don't know.
Speaker 3Right, you won't know what kind of future you'll be waking up in. Right, it'll be totally different than what you knew, so you would have to learn everything over again just to be able to adapt to whatever it's going on around you. I mean not that you couldn't do it, but it would have its challenges. I mean it would be.
Speaker 1Obviously I don't think it's something I'd be able to afford anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't do it, but if it was like affordable for everybody to be frozen, I think like, and it was just like the thing to do, I would put constituents in it. I would be like, all right, if you're gonna freeze me, you can like unplug me or whatever. Or just you know, euthanize me if none everyone I know is dead. You know, like if everybody.
Speaker 3I know or after 100 years.
Speaker 1Everybody in my family has passed on on their own, then don't break.
Speaker 3Just you can turn it off. How long do they give you an option? So wait 100 years. After 100 years. If you get nothing, unplug me and let me go that's it.
Speaker 1Hundreds to be done.
Speaker 2Well, I'm just saying, I'm giving up.
Speaker 3Yeah. Yeah, that is a long time, so people might do 100.
Speaker 1Fucking that's way too long.
Speaker 3So people might do 100.
Speaker 1I don't wanna come and wake up 100. That's the thing, like that's like saying you have to be teleported 100 years into the future.
Speaker 3And who knows what you're waking up into.
Speaker 1Well, yeah, it's gonna be good.
Speaker 3If you're totally freaking, a fight man.
Speaker 2Right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah and you're. But yeah, I said maybe that's why I said I wouldn't wanna be frozen, but see for now.
Speaker 1So here's the other part we all live underground now because Atlanta isn't inhabitable.
Speaker 3Like there's a fucking radiation Like the 100.
Speaker 2Yeah, oh, I love that show too.
Speaker 3Yeah, the 100.
Speaker 2Yeah for the new one, the Chris Pratt Tomorrow War. Did you see that one? Tomorrow War? Yeah, people from the future came in to recruit people from the past to help fight a war.
Speaker 1I guess there's eight-like-y shit, like if you're gonna freeze me, if you can't figure it out in like 15, 20 years, yeah, you know, I say 25. You could do 25. Yeah, 20, 25, yeah, come out.
Speaker 3Yeah, because I'm done, chop me up, throw me in with the hard feet.
Speaker 1You wanna be chum.
Speaker 3Give it to the horses and whoever.
Speaker 2Right. So, now here's where, like I said, so, we've all been talking.
Speaker 3You're not there anymore.
Speaker 2Well, no, but you know now. So we've been talking about you know, just get frozen and be brought back and throw it out and whatnot. But you ready? Dun, dun, dun, dun. You have to already be dead, you have to be like, you have to die and within like 10 minutes after you die, it has to be right away.
Speaker 2It has to be right away, so that then those that believe in having a soul and going to heaven and such, if carry it, you're already dead. So you're, you're assed out, you're fucked. So there is no coming back if you don't have a soul. If you know, for those who are that kind of religious, unless you're able to time on how long they had before that happened. Say again you lost me. Say again.
Speaker 3Like how long does it actually take you to get from here wherever you're going?
Speaker 2next? Well, right, but then, well, when you? So you're going to have to just roam, so your soul is going to roam the earth until no no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm saying, like you know, going by what you just said, right quick, that then that's what it'll be.
Speaker 3Yeah, no, I'm going extreme, I'm just saying yeah, Okay, fair enough, right.
Speaker 2So that then my thought process, though, or how I'm thinking about it, is you, now your brain. So your brain's not functioning Right.
Speaker 3So everything has to be, it has to, everything has to be. I would imagine that they have the brain in in focus with as far as the freezing thing goes.
Speaker 2Right, so then how would you die? So then how would you die, I guess, it depends on how you die. Right, Right. So then now I'm dying of cancer. I have to kill myself, or you know how does the can see work?
Speaker 3That's how you become a candidate for that. Is that something you can just do for anything? Or you can get a new organ when you come back right, or we can give them a new liver, so now we can get them back, or new, new kidneys, right, or whatever it is Right.
Speaker 2Yeah, well, I'm going to look at it right now.
Speaker 3How do we have the cure Cancer so we can bring them back?
Speaker 1You know what would be the ultimate thing, though, if they can figure out how to, kind of like you know, the show upload. Yeah, I love, that's what I'm talking about. But if they could do that and, like you, upload your brain onto like a hard drive.
Speaker 3And then you can.
Speaker 1So he talks about this friggin nut and then right, you can like move your hard drive into any like device. It's like you know what you should do. You could be any robot.
Speaker 2And just like a crazy. That's what I'm saying. I'll tell you Go ahead, no say that one.
Speaker 3No that you would upload yourself onto a computer.
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 3Yeah, you're able to do it. Let's say you can do it, right, right, you can give it to anybody, and you give it to the one person that busted your balls all your life that you can get. You know like they? Just like nagging.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Nagging every day, so see.
Speaker 3So you send that to one bro. Now they got it.
Speaker 2They can't get you off their computer as soon as they download that's it, your virus, you're in there. You're in there. You're like you're fucking whole life. You're funny as hell. Fucking methods.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2You see, that's why, that's probably why they're not going to upload people straight into a fucking computer, right, because you know what I mean. You motherfuckers, those people like you.
Speaker 1Yeah, so for, like, coro genics, I guess, yeah, I mean, I don't know. I feel like that would be like a good alternative. They couldn't, if they couldn't figure out, to like bring you back maybe they can take your like brain and scan it and like get all your memories, or I don't know.
Speaker 3Well, they say, here is challenges. The extreme temperatures involved can cause materials to become brittle, leading to potential safety hazards. Additionally, the cause of maintaining cryogenic systems and storing materials at such a low temperatures can be prohibitive.
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, like your skin's gonna break down.
Speaker 3Like freezer burn.
Speaker 1Well, no, but that's why you say on the like that Well no, so it's not like freezer burn.
Speaker 2That's why they freeze you with the liquid nitrogen.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's what the liquid nitrogen is.
Speaker 2You know this way you don't get freezer burn in here. Then your organs and stuff are frozen like that.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's what that is.
Speaker 3But they say here, research has continued to push the boundaries of cryogenic exploring new applications and pushing the limits of what possible For medical breakthroughs to space exploration. The future of cryogenics is a vast and cold as the depths of space itself. Right, you see?
Speaker 2So what do?
Space Exploration and Cryogenic Propellants
Speaker 1they mean for space exploration. It's like, oh, we'll freeze you on your way because it'll take 50 years to travel.
Speaker 2I guess there was a plan. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the whole idea, yeah.
Speaker 1I don't like that. You know why? Because like what happens if you wake up 50 years later and the earth is gone.
Speaker 3Oh, that's what we were saying earlier, but if you're doing, space exploration. You're gonna have to somehow be put in some sleep stasis.
Speaker 2Right, so that then you would have everything that you need as far as IVs and stuff.
Speaker 3Yeah, they would have to be able to. You would be constantly observed.
Speaker 2Right. So then now the people. So they would have two sets of people.
Speaker 3You may like what bears do hibernation.
Speaker 2Right, right, so like say, you go on a 50 year track through space. That then you are. Now you have people, doctors, that aren't going to be frozen, right?
Speaker 3well, I think right now, so they can maintain and take care of everybody that is frozen. I think the farthest to doing right now is, but I don't think they'll be sleeping for it, so it takes about. I'm not sure if we can look it up three years to get to Mars Dude, was it more? No, months.
Speaker 2Is it months? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's months. Was it like six months or something?
Speaker 1like that, yeah something like that, yeah, it's not years to get to.
Speaker 2Mars anyways. Yeah, so that then right, so you wouldn't need that you know what I mean.
Speaker 3Right, you would somehow be able to kind of like what they did when they. What was the movie with the Red Planet? I think it was with what's his name.
Speaker 2Mars, there's the Martian, with Matt Damon Right that one Martian.
Speaker 3Right and they had to go back.
Speaker 2To go pick, to go, go, go, go, go, go, go go.
Speaker 3They had to ship everything turned, so they had gravity by doing that.
Speaker 2Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so they were able to walk normally and everything. Yeah, so they could keep their muscles up. I don't understand that.
Speaker 1That's how anti-gravity would work. Right, right yeah well, like I said, this is Artificial gravity.
Speaker 2Right, so that then that's what it would be if we were gonna go traveling through space. Yeah, so then that would be us going through space. You know that they would again like you would have the people that would be frozen, and then you have the people that would stay awake to make sure that you know, and then you would have, I don't wanna say two generations, but you know whatever, just a pilot's and everybody there, and then maybe a younger crew, but that's what they would throw out first.
Speaker 2That's what it can help revive everybody else, and you know all that kind of stuff. That's the idea for the space exploration, like you said, for here on Earth it was just a matter of, oh, I just wanna bring back when there's a cure for this, because I don't wanna live in this kind of pain and all that kind of shit. You know what I mean. And I said, yeah, I wouldn't want to. But now we know Sir Elon Musk Musk, sir Elon Musk he is now. He set up that little trip thing that somebody put in their head and they hooked it up to their brain and now they can make a mouse move on a-.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, I saw that. That's amazing. Yeah, so this one one we can talk to our husband now because she's looking up to him on computer. She's handicapped, she's in a wheelchair, and they're reading it, oh yeah. She's able to communicate and laugh now at the things he's saying to her.
Speaker 2Right. But for so she actually can communicate with him even if she's not physically able to do it, how was it that? What's his name? Oh, shoot that's crazy.
Speaker 1He was in our length, though the guy. They don't like animal testing for that shit. It's kinda fucked up.
Speaker 2Well, yeah, I guess you know, but we live in the most.
Speaker 3It's hard sometimes to go through it a day just to know what when you look around you and see what's going on and just certain things.
Speaker 2You're like, oh my God, you know.
Speaker 3it's like what is the deal? But that's a whole other podcast.
Speaker 1Right, right, right. What is the deal with that? Yeah, so yeah, don't be totally good at saying it.
Speaker 3So yeah, they definitely are doing that. So, but they do fight against it and hopefully they won't do it anymore. You know we can get that done.
Speaker 2Well, not it, because now it's to where they're going to just start doing it on people.
Speaker 3Right. People would have to volunteer and give Right right, right. Yeah, think about it.
Speaker 2Who's not going to try to volunteer, like how many people are already lined up that they're going to try to do it Because they know they have to live a certain way. The company is helping pay for them to live a certain way. He said this way you know they can chest they. You have to make sure that this is working right. So you have to be where I can see you catch you. So you're living in a right, you know cool little house and you come in and do experiments and shit all day long, you know whatever, check it out.
Speaker 3So we were talking about space before space exploration.
Speaker 2Mm, hmm.
Speaker 3And is the use of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen as a rocket propellant. Propellants the cryogenic fuels are stored at ultra low temperatures to maintain them in a liquid state until they are needed for propulsion, providing high energy needed to launch spacecraft into orbit and beyond. Right. There you go, so it's used for that as well, and so that's cold Right.
Living for a Long Time
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, that's super cold, yeah, and I don't know. Man, I don't. Like I said I'm all for. Like you know, I said I want to live for a long time. I would like to, you know, be downloaded into a robot or whatever, or like you were saying, you know, like upload that to the show.
Speaker 3I would want it to happen if it happened by accident. In other words, you didn't plan for it, you didn't think it was going to happen, you died, you thought you were dead, whatever, and then the next thing you know, somebody brings your ass back.
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 3And you know, like you know it happened. Somehow your body was donated.
Speaker 2Yeah, Something you know you could come a story up with it.
Speaker 3We could probably put something on there and come up with some frig story, right?
Speaker 2But I'm saying like that kind of shit would happen, Like really, yeah, Of course I can't win the lot.
Speaker 3Oh, I can't get anything. They bring me back yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, pulling me back.
Speaker 2But I think that that's what for me, that's what I think would be the cool thing of being uploaded like that that you can like now you know, I know, I would know, you know. Think of how many movies that we've seen where somebody's living for a super long time, for years. You know what I mean and but they've become rich.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Right, you know what I mean. Yeah, the downside, you know. Depending on the person you are, though, too, you know I could say and talk shit now Like, yeah, no, I would probably be OK. You know, the family passes or they're so old and all that other good stuff. Right, you know it would probably mess with me for a little bit, but you know it's. Could I do it? You know what I'm saying. You know, would I want to?
Speaker 3do it, but by the time you get older, you'll be in a different place in your life and you'll be like yeah, no, I'm not coming back. Screw these guys.
Speaker 2Well, no, as far as cryo is concerned, yes, Like I said, but I really think that I would want to live in a grown up.
Speaker 1Like I said, I don't think the tech would be available then by that time if I were to do it like I said, it would be a very short time limit. I don't like. I don't want to come back and like everyone's fucking dead.
Speaker 2Yeah Well, but see, all right, so boom. So I'm thinking, you know we'll go back with the, with the space exploration, right. So now, if you're going to turn around and you can download me into a robot or you know whatever that, then I would be able to go and travel to wherever, so that it wouldn't be here with the family. You know I wouldn't be here seeing everybody die, but I'm also helping spread us, you know well, just that's not a kind of crazy?
Speaker 2But you know that I said, but that's you know, that's what I would see, that's what my head would be, that now we're able to thrive on another planet.
Speaker 3And you know just see what the other side of the would have a machinery they threw out on Mars somewhere and you'd be riding around the rover.
Speaker 2But it would be well, it would be me, but I would be digging out. You know I would be digging, doing the order, scientific stuff. You know you're a machine.
Exploring Beliefs on Death and Reincarnation
Speaker 3You still be listening to you, you know yeah, my freestyle or school hip hop.
Speaker 2You know what I'm saying. Yeah, yeah, you know just the way the part is.
Speaker 1If you're like, if, you're like a machine, right you're, you can multitask.
Speaker 2So you can be like on Facebook and while you're working, right, yeah, exactly, multiple, multitask, multi-task, I think.
Speaker 3I think I'm good. You know, listen, I'm not going to say I'm not afraid, Of course, I'm afraid of dying you know, but we don't know how we're going to die. We don't know that right so, but you know I'm ready to go to the wherever is supposed to go. Yes, yes, you know like you know what I'm done here.
Speaker 2Yeah, see how, about you? I'm out.
Speaker 1Well, I see you, I'm out. I still have to raise my son. You know what I mean Well that's well, yeah, no, when it's okay now.
Speaker 3He's going to die when you're alive, by the way.
Speaker 1Just so you know that.
Speaker 2You're going to be an old man.
Speaker 3He's going to be in his mid old.
Speaker 1No, I'm willing. I thought if I were to die now, if I was, I'm not saying.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, no, no, no.
Speaker 3I'm not trying to be like oh you mean like the cryogenic thing, right.
Speaker 2Right, yes, Like you know, you're 75 years old, you know? Would you Done yeah?
Speaker 1Done. Yeah, I don't know. I don't need to freeze myself Me you know, I think it's just.
Speaker 2I don't know. I would say maybe I'm just a little bit nosy, I'm good. Yeah, I just want to see what else is next, like I always want to see that.
Speaker 1Like I said most cultures right.
Speaker 3Believe in what?
Speaker 2Be incarnation. We should have a podcast on that, but you don't remember what you most 95, 80.
Speaker 3But if you get, someone who is able to. Now they say, you can go to a hypnotist or someone who's able to, you know, get you into that place where you can tap into who you might have been or who you are back in the day. Hey, listen, they do have those people out there that supposedly can help you with that situation.
Speaker 2Right, right, so now, there you go, people will help you.
Speaker 3It's like Star Trek, star Wars.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3Everybody's got to go somewhere, to get something to help them out, to fix something to make it work.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2I don't know. I have a hard time with that part of me. Oh, my God, you know what I'm saying. Like I said, I'm trying to just you know. I said, you know, everybody knows I like to play devil's advocate, but it's just, it depends on your belief, because now, if you are, if we are reincarnated, okay, now I go and I bring it back. You know, I try to remember what it is.
Speaker 3So you don't have any time. You can go right now and check out Well, no, well, no by the way can you die, or you've already lived three lives.
Speaker 2We don't know what. There's any such thing as reincarnation? There's been no proof of son. Right. So that then, now is it? That there's not reincarnation is just my subconscious of the life that I wanted to live, would like to have, yeah.
Speaker 3Right now. So do you believe that you're going to go somewhere when you die? You know we're not talking, we shouldn't be talking about this right now, but I'm trying to clear something up here. Right, you do file, you have a cross, you do all that when it comes to your religion.
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 3Right.
Speaker 1Uh huh.
Speaker 3But at the same time you're telling me you don't believe in what your religion is saying.
Speaker 2No, no, no, no.
Speaker 3Not that I don't believe what it is, it's just about where no, so I'm not quite sure if that's really what's going to happen Right, if that makes any sense.
Speaker 2So you're a little doubtful. Oh yeah, I'm a lot of doubtful. Okay, you know about a lot of shit. You know, I'm not going to say different, you know. That's why you don't know. Listen, that's going to be another conversation yeah, we're going to do another conversation. Yeah, yeah, that's going to be different.
Speaker 3But the cryogenics, I think, for me, I personally think like I wouldn't do it, I wouldn't suggest it for anybody. It doesn't seem like the right thing. If you're supposed to come back, then it'll happen Right when it's supposed to happen, right, you know. Right. Um, they say we're connected to the universe Right. So, and when you know, when you look at what we're made of, what we made of all the elements that are in the universe, Right.
Speaker 3You know. So that's just crazy. That's crazy. It means a lot. There's a connection there, you know, and I just think we're too ignorant right now or not open enough to really pay attention to that. So I think we're getting there, though. Now I think things have changed a little bit Because of because of social media and platforms that we have with people we don't normally hear from every day. Have that voice, you know, that can tell you or teach you something, whether it's medicine, science, politics, whatever it is what we're talking about, you know.
Speaker 2Cool, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I get it. I hear that you know that. And all that stuff that we're doing now as far as the medical field is concerned is just to keep us living longer, right, and we have Right, so that then in life.
Speaker 3They've saved the expense, we've gone. But what were they dying at in revolutionary? Oh yeah, yeah, 40. Yeah, 45. Yeah 40.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Exactly, yeah, right, yeah, and you're a million percent right. So that then now here we are, where would it be even worthwhile to be? Frozen. Yeah, yeah, right. So if I can live to be 150, then you know what, fine, I'm cool with that. I would like to see that.
Speaker 3So are they allowing people to to freeze themselves? But you have to be dead. What you were saying earlier, right, you have to be dead before they freeze.
Speaker 2So then, Right, so then you use that and I said if we're going to believe in the souls and stuff, then you're already gone. Do you come back like a pet cemetery? You know what I'm saying? Like yeah, you know the, you know what's going to, what's your mental going to be when you come out.
Speaker 1Right, I get it. No, I get it. That that's. I just look at it from the scientific approach, because I'm you know, I'm an atheist.
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 1Like as it, the only way is if the brain is not damaged. If there's any damage to the brain, they're going to come back, Right?
Speaker 2Right, exactly, yeah, so you're able to keep you preserved to the point.
Speaker 1The brain needs to not have any. When, when, when water freezes, it crystallizes. Right the image is tissue.
Speaker 3Exactly. That's probably why they freeze slowly, right For slow freezes Right Without, not in, regular ice. Super. Yeah, it's not like it's cold water Right, they do it.
Speaker 1It's the way that the, the, the nitrogen freezes. Yeah, that's why you're not. You know it doesn't crystallize, right? Yeah, it's the way that you think, yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, I don't know. Like I said, I, bro, listen, I would like to just live straight. I don't think that I've, you know, not on our conversation. I don't think I'd like to be frozen and then bought back. I think I would be chilled with just just being able to live a long life. Yeah, you know what I mean. I would stay with that, you know, be able to do whatever medically possible right now, but also we're going to break down the certain point.
Speaker 1If you're religious, then why would you want to live longer? I've always. If you're just going to the religion, is pass on to the next.
Speaker 2You know, you know so why?
Speaker 1why freeze yourself?
Speaker 2Yeah, you're going to go, you're about to go see other people. Yeah, because you're going to see all the greatest musicians in the world.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, fuck, yeah, you know who's to say we're not right, right and and we'll come back from the dead, and so they spoke to whoever they will win.
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 3And already you got to go back. We did a podcast on this.
Speaker 2Yes, I know.
Speaker 3Yep, yep. And they say you know the universe is a very vet. We barely made a dent on what we know. Right how, what it's about.
Speaker 2Yeah, exactly, no dent, no dental.
Speaker 3There's more stuff for us to do. Yeah, on the future podcast.
Speaker 2Right, yeah, but I think I would just want to live straight. Not that I'm saying it.
Speaker 3I thought you were straight bro.
Speaker 2Well, listen, see, now that's another podcast. I'm saying you know that was Sir Lewis Crawford who said that I didn't say nothing. Yeah, people knocking on the door whooping his ass.
Speaker 3Hey, I don't have a problem. Yeah, yeah, no, how would I tell?
Speaker 2you, yeah, no, I think I would rather live straight through and be downloaded, Like how he say. You know, I'm just digging just being that robot, being that cyborg you know met. There was a movie on Netflix and your consciousness was downloaded Like this little disk, and you would take it and you would be downloaded into a different body and do a robot Well, didn't?
Speaker 3they have a movie with Bruce Willis. Wait, even when you're alive, you can download your mind into a better body where you just live it. You're laying in that capsule.
Speaker 2Oh, yeah, yeah, something like that. Yeah, no, but they were living at home.
Speaker 1But everybody left that home and they just had a robot that went and walked around outside.
Speaker 3But it was then, yeah, and then they operated the robot that was their consciousness, but they weren't physically there.
Speaker 2They were more you know so Then, well, that's a different, that's a whole other idea right. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3You never know. Listen man science fiction. It's crazy. Some crazy stuff has come true Hell, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, it comes from somewhere. You know that thought process, the quote, unquote fiction in the movies. I don't believe that it's all 100%, just people thinking by themselves. I think there's a little bit of a subliminal somewhere that just came and dropped that knowledge that I did at thought process or that shit is coming to fruition, yeah man it really is. Like I said, if Elon Musk is already putting in the chip in somebody's head where they can control their phones, their desktop, their laptops, I don't want to do that.
Speaker 3I don't want to do that.
Speaker 1Because, like the thing that was, I have to think like fucking, what is it? What is that Manchurian? Candy yeah Like you could just do that and just hack people's brains and hack them to whatever.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 1Right.
Speaker 2Yeah, what? Because we're getting hacked now. So, yeah, hacking into your fucking body? No, thank you yeah.
Speaker 1It's just like we're going to hack into people and like stop their hearts and shit, right, yeah, it's fucked up.
Cryopreservation and Immortality Debate
Speaker 3What do I mean? Didn't they use the same concept in Terminator?
Speaker 1Yeah, the terrorist guy. It was like a major terror attack and like everybody just fucking dropped them at the same time?
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Because they hacked into people's?
Speaker 2yeah, fuck that. No, damn it. You just fucked me up. I guess I'm just going to die right here. Listen because you've got to be careful father, Because you have people who, who, who, who. I think a worst case scenario.
Speaker 3Yeah, you can't.
Speaker 1I'm a fucking, I'm a fucking, I'm a fucking party killer.
Speaker 3Yeah, listen, you're, you're speaking the truth because you have people out there that would do the opposite of the way we think. I am Not. Everybody thinks like that.
Speaker 2They think about that now. So yeah, so you have to think the way you already made that work.
Speaker 3Unfortunately, the Debedowner yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah, no, I bummed out now. Yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, no, that mean, like I said, those who did the cryo, and I mean no.
Speaker 3So apologizing to our listeners, though how many people have done it so far I don't know. I didn't want to see how many they did.
Speaker 1It's a lot of money. I know that it's a lot of money, yeah.
Speaker 2But apologizing to our listeners because, you know, making it sound like we were going to, you know just super information. But you know someone like us talking about not wanting to do it.
Speaker 3Well, no, not really. It's not that we don't want to do it. Obviously, there are people that have their reasons for doing it right. Maybe a lot of money, maybe they have a long lineage of something in their life, you know, and they don't want to, you know something Right. It could be some crazy thought process on why they want to do it. You know you.
Speaker 1For me it's like yeah, no, I mean, I'm good. Yeah, you will want to do it. There's more important things that they think that they could take?
Speaker 3Did the Egyptians think that they could take with the stuff that they were buried with when they died?
Speaker 1Right.
Speaker 2Whatever right, yeah, right.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I'm saying so. It's you know, the, it's the thought process.
Speaker 2Yeah, you know they would, but yeah yeah, everybody, everybody knows.
Speaker 2Everybody feels every religion, I should say, and not everybody Every religion feels that they can, that they crossing over and they're going to be, you know, go to the next life and be with their particular God, whoever they believe that it is, and, you know, live an amazing life and see all the family that has passed on and, you know, living some kind of glory, you know. So I mean it's something to look forward to. You know, I make the joke that I'm. You know they're not going to let me in the proletary gate. Try to get back, yeah.
Speaker 3We're not getting in right away. Yeah, no, no, no, no. We got to talk to you. You guys got to paint the fence. We got to paint the fence. We got to talk about that in another episode.
Speaker 1You guys got to fucking do some work outside, yeah.
Speaker 2What's the proletary game? So we're going to have to polish the motherfuckers.
Speaker 1We're going to have to polish them.
Speaker 2leaf blowers Guys need to clean up the leaves out here. Yeah, make sure this is all right.
Speaker 1This is heaven. Can't they just do it themselves? Can't it just, you know, just snap their fingers? No, no, you got to do it, yeah exactly yeah.
Speaker 3The first cryopreservation, by the way, since we're talking about that was in 1966, seven James Bedford in 1967, about 250 bodies have. We're looking at this. Sure stuff can happen here in a couple minutes. All right, uncle is here. Had been cryopreserved in the United States and 1500 people had made arrangements for cryopreservation on their remains there you go Okay. So people do do it. Yeah, people have done it. What?
Speaker 2about cost. Should look at it. Oh dude.
Speaker 1How much is it cost?
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1And it's gotta be like a yearly cost. It's not like, obviously, a one time fee because it's expensive to keep you like in that cryogenic, I'm sure the refrigeration- or the keep kid. You use liquid nitrogen. I don't know how it works, so they keep you. Is it like all with liquid nitrogen, or is the nitrogen just a freezing process?
Speaker 2That's a freezing process. They keep it frozen. They keep it frozen. Yeah, or they got to keep it in the freezer.
Speaker 1They got to keep putting the nitrogen in it.
Speaker 2Yeah, because it's gotta be that kind of cold. You know, just so you're not crystallizing, so that's why it's like, just above that, freezing like that. And yeah, it's insane bro, it's insane yeah 800 annually, the average of the.
Speaker 3this is for what? Do you call it embryo freezing?
Speaker 1Oh, I'm doing a freezing it's $11,000 to $15,000 for that. The embryo freezing. That's that I can say.
Speaker 3Think about what you would do with your body. It's gonna be in hundreds of thousands of dollars, Right? Yeah, definitely.
Speaker 2Millions. Yeah, probably yeah, because of the cost of inflation and yada, yada, blah, blah, blah, blah and all that other good shit. Yeah, I don't know, I think because you're already dead. If you're dead, then you know again. If we go by religion, then the spirits are really left to body and there's no bringing you back like that.
Speaker 3Some people don't believe that. Right right, right right. They said the 80s. You know, yeah, they're like, they think they gotta come back.
Speaker 2Yeah, no, it's over, right, yeah, no, then, even with that, I'd be afraid that you know, as I'm throwing out something else, you know what I mean. Just something might just have gotten frostbite and it's over, might you know? Something falls off, you know.
Speaker 3Yeah, exactly, nepali can only keep you on ice for so long anyway.
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 3What they were saying. So it's not like you can be that way for a long time.
Speaker 2Yeah, no, download me, download me, it's over.
Speaker 3Don't think about it. And they, you know. It shows you how people want to continue to live on and they have their reasons, obviously so.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, like I said, I just want it because I'm technology.
Speaker 3I believe the other way. I just think that you know, but just part of something bigger than being on, that we can't eat that, oh yeah right.
Speaker 2Well, I mean then, what so we're gonna go into the conspiracy thing is that these bodies are just a vessel.
Speaker 3Right and we go to that's not a conspiracy there.
Speaker 2Because we're part of an alien race that we're just here doing that.
Speaker 1I was just saying I was trying to tell them the conspiracy party was oh, isn't that the Scientology? Yeah, they believe in it, Right? Yeah, that this is just a vessel.
Speaker 3No that's not what I think. I don't think like that?
Speaker 2No, I didn't say you did, but you've been here with-.
Speaker 3Why do you jump right into the crowd, I swear to God.
Speaker 2Well, what was that? Listen, we're saying you just said. We're saying that it's just different things that people believe in, for when you know they move on.
Speaker 3But you jump right into the freaking Does UFOs, hell yeah. I'm going into the UFO.
Speaker 2Aliens abducted your body. Hell yeah, I'm flying that fucking thing. Can I fly? Can I fly, can I fly?
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 3I'm sorry I didn't say anything Wow.
Speaker 1That was disturbing on all levels.
Speaker 3So what were we asking? How long we can do it, for what?
Speaker 2was the question. Yeah, how long can we be frozen for? Is that what you asked, tom? No, I don't think so.
Speaker 3No, I said how much money it was. How much was it? It's going to be definitely a lot of money. As far as why people do it, they probably most likely, of course, they have money to do it. But, in order to do this, you're going to have to have money.
Speaker 2Yeah, definitely, you understand.
Speaker 3Yeah, so I don't know.
Speaker 2No, I said I get it.
Speaker 3I don't think this is one of I gotta say.
Speaker 2Yeah, this is more of I could just bullshit talking about.
Speaker 3I don't know. I don't know, Because you always talk about how you want to live after life and not die and go on to the afterworld or whatever might be waiting for us it could be hell and brimstone and whofuck.
Speaker 2Yeah, they don't want to let me in hell either. You know what I'm saying. They'd be really upset down there. So it's fucking die, yeah, you're saying, but it's all good. So I appreciate you know human being a little bit.
Speaker 1That was the buzz kill on this. Sorry, I got he's like you know what? I don't think the order we have. I just talked to Matt. I'm like fuck, sorry, no, whatever, man, whatever that is too funny man, that's messed up man.
Speaker 2But it's all good. But still with that, like I said, do the bullshit ass little talking, laughing, making funnies. But I appreciate everybody for listening yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah, listen. Do you guys have any opinions on the whole cry over there Like shoot us here.
Speaker 2Yeah they be like don't talk about it again. Instagram, facebook don't fuck about that again. Email let us know what you think I'm curious. We know that.
Speaker 3Everybody thinks differently, for whatever reason. Yeah, hit us in the DMs.
Speaker 2Yeah, or that other good stuff yeah.
Speaker 3All right so everybody.
Speaker 2Thank you for listening, thank you for being here. You guys appreciate. You guys Love peace and hair grease Long and prosper. Go vegan, hello, thank you.
