We sure did this weekend, and we're sharing our experiences of diving back into the worlds of anime, Counter Strike, and more. Not only do these nostalgic activities still provide comfort and joy as adults, but they also serve as a reminder of the importance of taking breaks to recharge from the stress of daily life.
But our weekends weren't just about indulging in nostalgia. We also explored the social aspects of working out at commercial gyms and how we navigate everything from overly friendly staff to learning from observing others' exercises. On top of that, we discussed the unique training routines of NASCAR drivers, giving us a newfound appreciation for their athleticism. And if you think that's all, we've got a few intriguing news stories to share – like a guitar selling for over $500,000 and a man opening a plane door midair.
Throughout our conversation, we delve into the significance of these headlines and how they relate to our own lives, from the fascinating world of food delivery services and tequila to the creative pranks we pulled in high school.

One, two, three, four. Hey guys, This is your host, Drew.
Speaker 2:I'm your host, Daniel. Welcome back and thanks for tuning in for the second episode of the weekend rundown. This weekend brought us a few interesting headlines, from a guitar selling for over $500,000 to a man opening a plain door midair. But in the spirit of keeping it consistent, how was your weekend, Drew?
Speaker 1:Man, my weekend was pretty chill. I got to be completely honest with you. I worked a lot because it's Memorial Day weekend Always good for the service industry. I watched a lot of anime, been catching up on a bunch of stuff that I haven't watched in a long time, like what. So I watched Naruto in a really long time, so I started watching that one again. It's always fun because it's like in subtitles, not dubs, so I have to pay attention. I can't do other stuff And sometimes if I'm doing something else because I have ADHD, i can't help it. I'll be like oh sweet, i remember that word. Like he just told him, like he couldn't do that. You know, like genitus.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah. Well, i only know Naruto because it's one of the more popular anime and I really don't know much about anime at all.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, I remember that you didn't really watch anime. But like, do you ever find yourself when you have the rare moment as a dad where you like just watch some sort of show or cartoon? It could be anything, but it like takes you back to your childhood. You just like don't care like about like the current problems of your life, You just like duck tails.
Speaker 2:Well, actually my oldest son for a period was really in the duck tails.
Speaker 1:And, but that's not. That's not like what the question was.
Speaker 2:No, no, you're asking me if I got.
Speaker 1:I mean obviously, yeah, that gave me like a nostalgia for right, but I'm asking do you ever use that as like an escape tool, escape from just like reality? reality, yeah, yeah, yeah, like, just like for like 30 minutes or like an hour or whatever.
Speaker 2:You're asking me if I sit down and watch this show by myself.
Speaker 1:Any show by yourself? Yeah, no, you don't do that.
Speaker 2:No, not at all. There's no time for that. I watch what my kids watch and I'm saying if they, if my oldest son, had watched an episode of duck tails, then yeah, i got to watch an episode of duck tails, and sure that was my escape right there in the living room with my son, with him, but he's still there.
Speaker 1:So, like, what about when they're asleep? Do you ever like play, like, like any games from your youth or anything like that? that like just takes you back, like time travels. when I'm trying to say I mean every night.
Speaker 2:I play Valorant, which is a time travel to Counter Strike, which I played when I was nine, so does it like make you? feel like I guess, huh.
Speaker 1:Does it make you feel the same kind of like the game like doesn't give you like the same emotions as counter strike did when you were like younger.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's different because now that I'm older I realize I'll get into like a one verse four or one verse five And I'll start shredding. You know, i'll get down to like me versus one other person And if the round takes long enough, i just start to feel my chest pounding. You know, my heart is racing like more than like like today my, my heart rate I looked on the treadmill was like 189 or 188 or 189 or something. It's more than that from the video game, that's for sure.
Speaker 1:But it's understandable, that's understandable. But yeah, man, that's kind of like. Other than the anime, this weekend, i don't think I really did anything besides really just relax, and I went pretty excited about the new equipment I ordered for us. Other than that, that's what I did.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know what it sounds like yet, but I hope it sounds good.
Speaker 1:Not all here yet, But yeah the pieces that we're using. Yeah, we got some stuff. We got some stuff, but we're gonna need a lot more stuff. So, but anyways, like how was your weekend, bro? What did you do?
Speaker 2:I didn't do much, i just went to the gym. I have a very strange gym where I like to go at night when there's not too many people. Actually, i'm dodging the people that work there.
Speaker 1:Oh, like the front desk people.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:Why are they like overly friendly or something?
Speaker 2:Yeah, and they ask a lot of questions and they wanted me to do this physical assessment, so I made an appointment to appease them and I didn't show up.
Speaker 1:Oh, you did a no show to an appointment.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and now I just feel like could I go in there while they were there and maybe they wouldn't say anything? Yeah, but I can also go there after they leave, because it's 24 hours, and just do it then. But when I go at midnight, one o'clock in the morning, there are so many people at this gym. There's eight or nine cars in the parking lot at all times.
Speaker 1:So it's just always people at the gym, always people at the gym. It's popular, i guess, that gym huh, which gym is it Do you want to say, or no?
Speaker 2:I don't think the name really matters that much.
Speaker 1:Are they like a commercial gym?
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:They're a commercial gym and clearly they do fairly well.
Speaker 1:Do you ever see someone like? I've fallen victim to this myself, where I've gone to the gym and I see someone doing something And I'm like what the fuck are they doing? And then I initially judge them in my head, before I even have any thought process, and then come to find out that's an actual exercise And I was just a dick for thinking, oh, that's weird and I really should just mind my own business. You ever do that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, actually I just try to learn when I see people doing stuff like that, Because I assume I wouldn't do anything if I just started going to the gym or something. I wouldn't do something foolish.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, i mean, that's not what I'm saying. So, like, here's an example that I'm trying to use like that I can think of most recently, like I saw a dude he had this thing like strapped to his head, under his chin, and he was like, and it went around the back of his head, it went under his chin and it strapped around his head and then attached to a cable that was in front of him And he pulled back like back and forth you know what I'm saying And it was like working out his neck, yeah, but like I initially was like whoa, what is this old dude doing? But obviously it's just like I guess that's a thing like to keep your neck and your it combats the hunching over, yeah, but like I'm just judging this guy, like you know, for like 15 seconds in my head before I'm like you know what? just go about your own work, yeah well, i've seen like NASCAR drivers.
Speaker 2:If you watch their training I thought they weren't athletes, but just the fact that they've done. If you look up what their training is, it's something like they have like these huge rubber bands that they put on their head And they just yank while they're in the in, like the cockpit. They just yank on their head, Why, with tremendous pressure. Okay, just cause, just cause.
Speaker 1:I guess when you turn like getting prepared for the whiplash or your head whipping around and everything It shrinks and sort of like neck and stuff.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so they'll do like driving simulations, while somebody has this like I mean, it'll be more than one person, they'll have it at multiple angles and they'll just be ripping on his head. So I feel if, like, if I saw somebody doing that, i would be like, oh, that guy's like an ex race car driver. I probably would have been wrong. I probably be wrong.
Speaker 1:I mean, no, it's if, knowing what you said there, i probably would have assumed the same thing. I'm not really into race car driving like that, just because.
Speaker 2:Oh, I'm not into race car driving.
Speaker 1:I feel like I always go whenever like a friend likes to say hey, you want to go to the Speedway and see XYZ.
Speaker 2:I've never been to a Speedway in my life.
Speaker 1:Really, i guess I just have friends that like always have extra tickets and you can't say no. And I did have that like brief stint when I was in college where I like souped up my car, so I like. Yeah, and you used to take it to the track. Yeah, that thing was not fast.
Speaker 2:No, you didn't win it.
Speaker 1:Well, there's no winning. It was just like.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there was, you raised multiple. You raised multiple friends.
Speaker 1:Well, it wasn't like the, you weren't racing, so like it was the time, it was time. I mean, when you race your friends, you did it in the street.
Speaker 2:Okay, i get what you're saying, so. so you were just doing like a solo run.
Speaker 1:It was you and one other person, but like I guess, you could have raised.
Speaker 2:You could have just lined each other up and just Yeah, but it was it.
Speaker 1:I think when I lined up it was some like, it was people I didn't know, and one time it was a motorcycle which, like, was not fair.
Speaker 2:He smoked you. It was a motorcycle smoked you. Yeah, Wow, I mean he wouldn't smoke every car but he'd smoke you.
Speaker 1:I saw him smoke like a freaking viper. He was fast. He was fast as hell. Um yeah, but other than that man, um weekend stuff. I've heard about some cool weekend news that I want to talk about.
Speaker 2:You want to get into our articles, or Yeah?
Speaker 1:let's go ahead, hop in. All right, i'll pull up the first one here. She want to light hearted one right away, because I like a light hearted one right away.
Speaker 2:Uh yeah, let's keep it. Keep it lighthearted.
Speaker 1:All right, all right, i think, i think.
Speaker 2:I think this one of anything that's not lighthearted.
Speaker 1:Uh, I have two things that are kind of on the more serious side, Yeah but not Not dark, no, but one of them, yeah, not dark.
Speaker 1:One of them is controversial and another one I don't know. There's, there's some weird things, nothing dark, but all right, so I'll just jump right into this one then. Uh, it just brings up like a kind of dark memory. That's all, but it's not a big deal. Um, this article here, all right. So this headline here that we have man is uh, kirk Cobain's broken guitar sells for nearly $600,000. It's a lot of money. That is a lot of money, man. So a broken guitar.
Speaker 2:But how is it broken? Is there like need new strings?
Speaker 1:Uh, it looks pretty. it looks pretty beat up, Um, and it's all signed up. but here I'm going to tell you a little bit more. I'm going to read the next part. It says Kirk Cobain's black fender Stratocaster is covered in scratches and chipped wood. The names of Cobain and his former band Nirvana are misspelled purposefully. The guitar itself, which was once smashed and put back together, is no longer playable. But on Saturday the broken guitar was sold at an auction for a whopping $596,000, nearly 10 times more than what they were asking in the opening bid. And then, showing the adoration of the rock icon is still alive almost 30 years after he died. Uh, items from Nirvana and or Kirk Cobain are becoming more and more difficult to obtain as more people are getting into the band And it's like becoming more popular, you know.
Speaker 2:Okay, so did you leave anything out as you read through that?
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:Okay, i hate it Only because there's more things.
Speaker 1:There's more things. I didn't, i didn't end the article, i just took a break.
Speaker 2:No, no it's. It's an interesting article. I'm just saying I hate that.
Speaker 1:I said there's more to it is what I'm saying I hate that.
Speaker 2:I mean clearly there is. I hate that they're. They say the names are purposefully misspelled, misspelled, but you don't give me the purpose. What's the purpose?
Speaker 1:The purpose is that Kirk Cobain was that kind of person. It's vague. What do you mean? He was an ironic person, like. he liked to do things just to be like he didn't Like. if he would think that by misspelling his name and his band on his guitar would discredit the guitar in the future, to lower the sale of that guitar, he would do that.
Speaker 2:I feel like, immediately, if it was signed incorrectly, it would. It wouldn't have to depreciate because it wouldn't have had a value in the first place.
Speaker 1:Except for the fact that you know that Kirk Cobain would do that and that you know that this. Okay, if I continue on, let me see here It also has the famous guitar case with the white lettering of abort Christ that was seen, which is pretty brutal board Christ. He used to say that and yeah, supposedly It is confirmed to be his bro, like I mean the other two, the other two members of Nirvana came and signed it after the fact, like to prove its authenticity and they signed it incorrectly as well.
Speaker 1:No, they all the things Besides their signatures were put on beforehand that's.
Speaker 2:I mean, if I had six hundred thousand dollars laying around and I was going to buy some sort of memorabilia for a rock star, i Feel like that is a purchase that I would make.
Speaker 1:You would or would not.
Speaker 2:I would.
Speaker 1:Yes, i mean especially if you're a Nirvana fan, because it's harder and harder to find these things and I can't even play the guitar.
Speaker 2:So if it's broken or not, it doesn't make a difference.
Speaker 1:It's a piece of art almost yes and either probably. These people are probably strange enough to have a Kirk Cobain like life-size wax doll and have the guitar in his hands Like in their house.
Speaker 2:That's kind of creepy to think about.
Speaker 1:I know, but it's the thing that people do. I saw this guy that, um, he was really into wrestling and he had like a whole basement of like They weren't wax sculptures, but they were mannequins, and he had the people's outfits on the mannequins, like of wrestlers, of wrestlers, yeah, like mankind went there. The only way that they could get this, this dude, to sell the original cactus Jack, like Uniform or whatever, was to have like mankind, go there, like To tourist place, be like would you sell this to me? and he's like I don't know man. And he's like it's gonna go into a museum, it's gonna be well taken care of. And he's like I don't know, i really like.
Speaker 1:And he's like, what, if I come back here and we'll watch wrestling, the old wrestling shows together and eat popcorn and have like a weekend of it, the guys like I get to hang out with you? to Mick Foley, he's like, yeah, i'll come back. He's like okay, deal, you still had to buy it, or that was what. No, no, they still had to pay. That was the icing on the cake. The cake wasn't sweet enough. You know he needed the Mick Foley Experience.
Speaker 2:I got you. That's pretty cool, I mean if you're that into it.
Speaker 1:But just to have his man cave was like this size of like basically everyone's Basement in Michigan and like the big ones you know where you walk around. There's like pool tables and stuff. It was just lit up like memory, like cases and stuff like that. So that's what I'm saying. Like people do those kinds of things, man, whoever bought that? they don't just have that, you know, they probably have like weird other crazy things to yeah, and That's probably gonna be the centerpiece of their weird, crazy collection.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, at least the most talked about right now, until they buy the next weird thing. The cool thing about this is then they get to say That this becomes a tax write-off and it's also art, so they can say it's worth whatever. Just because they paid that price for it doesn't mean that that's what. It's worse. They'll just take it to some fucking person who will like Value it and they'll be like oh, this is one of a of a kind. It's worth three million dollars or something like that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but that doesn't mean they're gonna resell it at three.
Speaker 1:No, but that means that they'll get a tax write-off for three million dollars.
Speaker 2:No, they'll get a tax. That's why they're paid.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's not how that works. That's how our appraisal works, and that's why a? lot of gangsters and people like that go and get art. That's why rich people deal in art because it lowers their taxes.
Speaker 2:That sounds like a broken system.
Speaker 1:It's not a broken system, that the systems there. So to help people not have to like Only people who don't want to put in work pay extra taxes, obviously if you're in the lower class and you can't afford to. You know what I'm saying. I don't want to talk about this too much because this isn't the type of show we are. You know I'm saying but like That, there's more pages on how to not pay taxes than there are to pay taxes.
Speaker 2:I Get you I won't elaborate on it too much, just because we don't want to go too far down that road.
Speaker 1:Yeah, definitely not. You want to go.
Speaker 2:You want to go in the next article, you have one for us next one We got is Indian officials suspended after he drains reservoir to retrieve phone He dropped while taking a selfie.
Speaker 1:So like a reservoir, like that's, like a water retention pond or something.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it must have been a pretty pretty high up official.
Speaker 1:What does it say?
Speaker 2:a government official in India has been suspended from his job after he ordered a water reservoir to be drained So he could retrieve his smartphone, which he had dropped while taking a selfie. Food inspector Oh nice, rajesh Bishwa, i Think that's the silent. I'm action, acting like it's French, but that's how. Yeah, hard to say dropped his Samsung smartphone in Kirkata dam there was this first problem at a Samsung in the central. You want to go down that road right now.
Speaker 1:Just go, bro, just go, keep going.
Speaker 2:Central Indian state of Chetishkar. Last week, viswa first asked local divers to jump into the reservoir to find the device, claiming it contains sensitive government data. But after the initial efforts to retrieve his smartphone failed, he asked for the reservoir to be emptied using diesel pumps Over the next three days. More than two million liters of water were pumped out of the reservoir, which is enough to irrigate at least 1500 acres of land during India's scorching summer.
Speaker 2:Nice in videos that went viral on social media, vishwa is seen sitting under a red umbrella as diesel pumps run to drain water from the reservoir. Vishwa told local media the water in the reservoir was Unusable for irrigation and that he had received permission from a senior official to drain it. So basically, since keys a Health inspector, he decided that it was unfit water Because the smartphone isn't it.
Speaker 1:That was his excuse. Is what he's saying I?
Speaker 2:I don't know why he said it was unfit, but he said the water was unfit.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, no, my, my guess is is that like, if we're being completely honest, like he probably had like messages from his side hose, or like He had like bad Things on that phone? He didn't want someone to find, you know?
Speaker 2:Well, it didn't matter, because the smartphone was eventually retrieved but wouldn't even start because it was waterlogged. Authorities suspended him After he was widely criticized for wasting water resources. India is one of the most water stressed countries in extreme temperatures. That's not funny.
Speaker 1:I'm sorry, i'm not laughing at that, i'm laughing at the fact that this guy is so listen, it's okay to laugh at the fact that this guy is trying so hard to cover up whatever tracks he had and then, and then to top it off, his phone was broken.
Speaker 2:Yeah, i mean his country is dealing with severe water scarcity, causing crop losses, forest fires and cuts to power, and this guy's gonna drain water Because his smartphone fell in For three days. He's not gonna think after, after the first day or two, maybe, maybe it's a lost cause, maybe this thing's not gonna start? Nope, just gonna keep draining water.
Speaker 1:I mean, yeah, dude, it seems to me like it was a Aged case of the official cares more about himself and cared about his area. that needed to be taken care of.
Speaker 2:You know, it's crazy that a food inspector could get anybody to listen to him.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, they must have a lot of power over there, a lot of power.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but I mean, I don't know how that's expected, the food is over there. Well, i don't know that I would trust it more than our Food. I mean not if they're not.
Speaker 1:If they're their administrators, can just? I worked in a restaurant.
Speaker 2:I know how a health inspector inspects, you know, yeah, they're hardcore.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I would imagine that over in India It's probably a little more linear. You know, I've seen shops that are like on the side of the road and shit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but that's the same as like here. Like do health inspectors go to every food truck? You're supposed to, they're supposed to, but do you think some food trucks get away with it?
Speaker 2:I'm sure a couple do. Yeah, I'm sure I know everyone gets away with with health code violations. You know if you go out to eat it's a risk you're taking.
Speaker 1:That's a risk you're taking, ladies and gentlemen, you heard it here first, and Daniel It's ramen.
Speaker 2:Don't go out to you. You don't want people to grab your fries. People are eating fries out of the bin that you eat fries that you get Served it happens? We're all hungry. You want us to do Right More than being hungry to.
Speaker 1:It's like a. It's like a. You walk by a fry, but how do you not take a fry?
Speaker 2:exactly quality assurance.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's freaking. What is that? It's like a second dad tax before a server exactly.
Speaker 2:How do we know what we're serving if we're not eating it as we're serving?
Speaker 1:it. Well, maybe not, as we're serving I.
Speaker 2:Like my motto better.
Speaker 1:I bet, i bet you do, because you don't have a serious job.
Speaker 2:I do not and I'm not going back.
Speaker 1:Oh Man, that's a gonna. You're gonna be a great thing to say one day What I do not and I'm not going back.
Speaker 2:Well, i know, i mean I I'll probably end up back.
Speaker 1:Well, it's like so easy to just fall in for a little quick extra buck, you know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, You end up doing what you got to do and it's like you said it's There's so many restaurants and you can get hired so quick Everywhere. I don't know how anybody has difficulty finding a job.
Speaker 1:They don't want to work. Bro, i literally have social anxiety and like I still have a job, i still like and I mean I Don't know if I, if I got fired tomorrow, like I would go find another restaurant or another anything.
Speaker 2:There's so many, there's so many people that that need, need, that are hiring. You know that need people.
Speaker 1:Yeah, everybody needs people.
Speaker 2:I mean, I don't even think now it's related to the pandemic. I just think the world is lazy.
Speaker 1:Speaking of things related to the pandemic, i literally tried to order us pizza before this, before this recording, and because we're recording late on a Sunday, no pizza places open past nine o'clock for delivery, bro, like what is that? That's not real. I I at least the mainstream ones like I clicked pizza, i click Domino's door dash does I know I've Door-dashed.
Speaker 1:I personally don't like door to. I don't like a third party, and this is not an attack at any. What door dash driver, you guys are great, okay. The thing that I don't like is that you're not employed, you're contracted by a third-party person, by a third company, hundred percent. So you don't actually work for that company. So you are reliable to an extent, but it's not like you're not at the store waiting for the next delivery. I order my food, it sits there, it gets cold. You pick it up, you bring it along with three, four, five, six other fucking deliveries And then my shit comes cold and I still had to tip you and, like, i feel like an asshole for even saying these things. But I want my pizza to be hot and I literally the. I just, i'm just mad, i'm salty because the pizza by my house literally every single time They don't advertise that. They only use door dash and they only door dash with people, and I think it's because I live in an undesirable part of town okay.
Speaker 2:So here's what I'll say about that is, I've never been offered six. I've never even been offered three deliveries at the same time. I've only been offered up to two deli.
Speaker 1:Well then, these people are hell of slow dog.
Speaker 2:Well, so the thing is when, when we get offered a run, they don't tell us how much a tip is. They don't tell us anything like that. They tell us how much they're gonna pay us and They're willing to pay us about two dollars and fifty cents maximum.
Speaker 1:So you're telling me the fact that I live close to the pizza hut is bad because they Don't have to take the order far so they don't get paid a lot.
Speaker 2:They probably are getting offered like a dollar fifty plus what would what would you. What would you be Tipping on that?
Speaker 1:it depends on my pizza is my pizza is thirty five dollars. I tip anywhere from eight to ten dollars, but I hate pre-tipping now on there, because my shit comes cold every time because, okay, i'm gonna have an eight to ten my theories out the window, but a lot of times what happens is somebody won't tip or they'll tip like two dollars and that's it.
Speaker 2:If you tip me two dollars or three dollars now I have to. Probably I'm probably gonna get four dollars four fifty to take this order I'm gonna. It's gonna take time on top of time, it's gonna take gas, so I got to take both of those things into account and That price probably isn't gonna be gonna be enough for me. So I'm gonna decline that order. What is DoorDash gonna do? DoorDash is gonna send that order to the next closest driver, but they're gonna up it fifty cents and they're gonna offer to him for four dollars, and now he's probably gonna decline.
Speaker 1:So because it's gonna bounce to another. So what you're telling me is because their system is broken, i have to wait and let my pizza get fucking cold, even though I live literally like eight blocks away, and I'm just too fucking drunk And I don't want to drive up in there and get it tip twenty dollars if it'll come quick. I don't know what to tell you but you're saying they don't know the tip price?
Speaker 2:Yeah, but they know what? that if your tip is twenty dollars and it's gonna say right off, rip Offer to run this twenty one dollars. I don't know the tip price, but I know it gives me an offer right from the start. On what?
Speaker 1:to in the offer.
Speaker 2:The tip is included in the offer tip is included in the offer, so a lot of times it'll be for like five dollars is what the run will be for so if the runs for five dollars And it's kind of far. I know that you probably didn't even tip anything. It probably started at the two dollars and then people kept canceling it.
Speaker 1:So I just why does need to like make my tip like twelve instead of ten?
Speaker 2:Yeah, exactly, so I'm not gonna, so I'm not gonna even take that one.
Speaker 1:I just need a scoppy and drunk, i need you to go pick my pizza up, i guess.
Speaker 2:I mean at eleven dollars. If you live a couple blocks away, i would take that shit. But the only problem is how many people are door-dashing out there. How many businesses are out there? You got a order from a pizza place, that's. That's in a populated area where there's door-dash or sitting at.
Speaker 1:That's fair. Do you want to show us? Was it tequila? Yeah, it's the most popular tequila in all of Mexico, according to a Good old co-worker friend of ours who's really good at Rubik's cubes.
Speaker 2:I'll take a little bit. It's like putting Mexico straight in your body.
Speaker 1:I Could have made a joke there, but I don't know how you'd feel about it.
Speaker 2:Some comedian says that I don't know. I don't know how the joke he.
Speaker 1:Leads with that. The the other day at work, we were talking about tequila.
Speaker 2:Is there something I can chase this with, cuz I'm a bitch water? Oh, i got a red bull.
Speaker 1:Yeah, bro, there you go. I don't know you're about to find out here. Here's my, here's my point a pre-workout early. Got enough. Be swell to yeah, it's pretty excessive to power elephant. Heard of elephants. hit that up, i'm going to give me a second, i got, i got a another article for us when you're done with that.
Speaker 1:One senior prank lists a Maryland High School for sale on Zillow. A Maryland High School was listed on Zillow in what school officials describe as a senior prank. The listing, which briefly appeared on Zillow before being removed hours later, described the 12,458 square foot mead high school as half working jail. All 15 bathrooms come with sewage issues. There is a spacious kitchen and dining room with a private basketball court. The listing said the property comes with complimentary trash, scented air fresheners and water issues. Bob Mosey or a spokesperson for the and Arundel County Public Schools, call the listing incredibly creative advertising, but we are frankly stunned that the listing so vastly underestimated the value of prime piece of real estate like this, especially one with such amazing amenities. I can't imagine that it's going to be a rush for bidders to snatch this one up So much was the price?
Speaker 2:What was the asking price?
Speaker 1:a 42,069 dollars For a school? Yeah, but you know why. So what number is that? four, two, zero, six, nine, that's a hell of a deal though It is a hell of a deal fully furnished. Well, yeah, but I mean it's a senior prank, but they they listed as four twenty sixty nine.
Speaker 2:You're missing the funny point. I get the funny point, i get the funny point here than you think it is.
Speaker 1:It's totally fine. It's totally fine. I think it's hilarious, so that these kids like remember back in the day of like I don't know what you did for your senior prank, but I remember when I was like a sophomore or a freshman, like these people took this cow from. Like They took this cow and they, they took it up the the stairs basically, and just left it up there. Yeah, cuz cows will go upstairs but they won't go downstairs. There was an elevator, right. No, there's no elevator. I'd have a crane come take the cow out.
Speaker 2:So if you were a handicapped person at the school, what did you do?
Speaker 1:Uh, the the elevator was just big enough for one wheelchair with a dog, not big enough for a cow and not graded for a cow Like not an elevator. There was one handicapped elevator in the back of every building, i lifted it down.
Speaker 1:Not airlifted it. They had to have like one of those like bobcat cranes, come in, like, go underneath, like like basically you remember that scene from like Jurassic Park Where they like took that, like put that thing down for the Raptors? Yes, yeah, it was like one of those like like harnesses under the cow and that would be so expensive. Yeah, it was definitely a douchey prank paid for that. I don't know. It's a school board probably.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's unbelievable.
Speaker 1:Did you hear about the one Um I?
Speaker 2:got in so much trouble in school I they would have roasted me for that the, the other high school.
Speaker 1:Like the rival high school, they did a funny thing where they, um, you know, smugglers Cove like the pup-pup place with the alligators.
Speaker 2:Smuggler, are we talking pirates Cove, when there was a pirate?
Speaker 1:No, the smugglers Cove the pup-pup. Yeah, that's alligators. Yeah, so they went and they took the alligators right, well, that's like a federal crime.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, they're little baby alligators. They taped their mouth shut. It's probably, i don't know, maybe they didn't, but they took the alligators, they numbered them right, one through four, and they love. They put glue in all of the doors at the same time and release these alligators so that, like, none of the doors could open, and then there's alligators just out in the school, and so this officials had to close the school because they're looking for these alligators. They found the first one, they found the second one and they found the fourth one, but they can never find the third one because there was no third one. They never numbered a third one. They did it just so the school be closed all day.
Speaker 2:That's clever. I like that one. That's very clever. I like the cow one too, but I just think I would have got roasted for the cow one Yeah you probably get.
Speaker 1:I mean, you already started with like the alligator one being like a federal offense, though.
Speaker 2:Yeah, i mean, i just I think, the theft of the alligators, i mean stealing my. You know, you know that, you know, like the signs.
Speaker 1:They say like no molestation of alligators, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, my my senior prank. So I didn't really make it to senior year but I had a sophomore prank and I only had the sophomore prank because my sophomore year the Principal and the guidance counselors called me into the office and asked me. Actually, they called me and one other buddy into the office and they asked us. They pleaded with us pretty much Not to do anything For the upcoming homecoming Football game, like we had homecoming week and they didn't want us to spoil homecoming week because you are a spoiler.
Speaker 2:Had no plans of spoiling homecoming week but when they told, you not to plans changed immediately immediately, my friend. So immediately we go back to the house and Me. Me and my buddy are trying to figure out how we're gonna mess up the the Homecoming week without being able to get expelled, because they were pretty adamant that we were gonna be in a lot of trouble No matter what we did. So we came up with the idea that we would just go to school Supporting the team that we were playing for homecoming.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's was a team called Adrian. So we got white shirts and we decorated them and wrote all over them go Adrian, adrian's number one, all kinds of all kinds of hype talk. For the other team and I was number four and my buddy was number 20. So whenever we were walking next to each other in the hallways We were number four, 20, and none of this could get us in trouble, because individually I'm four and he's 20, and just because we're Rooting for our other school.
Speaker 1:That's where it's a big no, but you can't get in trouble.
Speaker 2:I can't get in trouble for that. There's no way that would. I would get that in the newspaper. I would figure something out. There's no way I would let that because the newspaper back then was like a big deal.
Speaker 1:It was, it was a thing, but so we went there and it didn't.
Speaker 2:We didn't get in trouble with the, with the teachers or the principal or anything, although it didn't land Quite as well with the football players.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's not cool. Yeah, there's a lot of big guys on football teams.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but they were bitches, They didn't they just We weren't that good, 22 bitches, we weren't that good. There was one kid actually your linemen are like 330 pounds. Well, there was one kid that was going to. He had a scholarship to go to the University of Michigan.
Speaker 1:Oh, then he wasn't gonna do anything because he had a scholarship exactly, and so he was the only one that ever could do something.
Speaker 2:Threatened me. I mean that I felt threatened to buy but I remember you were until like.
Speaker 1:You were like, if this guy could, it did something, yeah, something would happen and I remember he was.
Speaker 2:He was picking on one of my friends. That was real small and I tried to And he probably deserved it. I'm not saying that I was standing up for freaking the little guy?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I could have been standing up for the asshole. You know I don't know what was said, but I know that he. I walked in and he was, you know, giving him the business, and so I kind of stepped in, you know, and I told him stop being an asshole. And He kind of stepped to me and I didn't want no smoke. So I told him that I would break his kneecaps because I didn't want to, like, meet him after school or anything. So I was like man, if I see you, i'll just break your kneecaps and you'll lose your scholarship.
Speaker 1:So whatever you want to do, It's you're like I'll probably die, but like you'll never play football.
Speaker 2:Yeah exactly I mean you're gonna, you will hurt me.
Speaker 1:I'm not gonna say it's my life worth your football career. He was a very. Is he in the NFL now?
Speaker 2:No, he, he was like a. I think he got dropped after his first year.
Speaker 1:Didn't even play anymore.
Speaker 2:I don't know he, i'm not trying to knock on him. He might have Left and transferred somewhere so that he could play, because maybe he wasn't what he wasn't starting. So maybe it was like a personal sacrifice he made, but he's not. I haven't seen him in that NFL.
Speaker 1:Wow, it's crazy to think about stuff like that. It's just just like a guy goes to Like that's a D1 school and then just falls off like that, just because he wants to play.
Speaker 2:Instead of waiting for his opportunity. Yeah, how does he know the opportunity? I mean, he knows more about the inner runnings of the team. Yeah, yeah, he probably.
Speaker 1:He probably just didn't want. He probably just didn't want like a Like some people don't see themselves in the NFL, i probably would say, and they like I could be wrong about this But like, if they don't see themselves as an NFL caliber player, they just want to play while they can, whatever they can, i guess.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they only got so many games left, so many.
Speaker 1:Every one of us only have so many games left in us.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I got any more games left in me. Yeah, I'm gonna do those OCR that's.
Speaker 1:That's me basically saying that, like your, days are only so many. You know, yeah, for sure You got any more articles, cuz I only got one more.
Speaker 2:You only got one where you only did one.
Speaker 1:Mmm, I've done two they did, you too. I did. I did Kurt Cobain and I did the senior prank.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, i have. How about a man that shot his roommate after accusing him of eating the last hot pocket?
Speaker 1:So did he actually eat the last hot?
Speaker 2:I don't know. I accused him. A Man in Kentucky's largest city Facing criminal charges after allegedly shooting his roommate during a dispute over a hot pocket. Authority, say Clifton William, 64, was arrested on assault charges Sunday after he accused his roommate of eating their last hot pocket and attacked him, shooting him in the buttocks The buttocks is always fun to say it's a fun word, buttocks. According to police, william started throwing tiles at the man after he realized the last microwavable turnover was gone. He then shot him in the buttocks as he tried to escape.
Speaker 2:Yep, there it is. Williams is prohibited from contacting the victim, as he should be right like he was taken to UofL hospital to be threatened for non-life threat and your injuries. His bond was set at 7,500 so he only has to pay 10% of that. So I just pay $750 to bond out after shooting his buddy. The guy had non life threatening There's only word where he shot somebody right, right. No, i'm not saying that's a tempting, i'm saying this is that guy got lucky.
Speaker 1:The other guy got lucky.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he has to be. He has to be under arrest for attempted murder.
Speaker 1:You have to like. You think he knew that his roommate was like unhinged, or do you think like it was just like?
Speaker 2:I wonder if If he didn't have some sort of dementia or something like that.
Speaker 1:Well, like, how old was the guy? 64? oh, jesus, dude. Yeah, he's like you ate my hot pocket. He's like we haven't had a hot pocket in this house since 1998.
Speaker 2:I mean, he looks pleased in his mug shot. He looks like he received a hot pocket.
Speaker 1:They, they took him to jail and they're like here's your lunch. And it was two hot pockets and he was like worth it.
Speaker 2:I did everything right today, oh.
Speaker 1:Man. I don't think they gave him a hot pocket in jail. I don't think they do that?
Speaker 2:No, they probably don't.
Speaker 1:I think it's like Uncrustables if you're lucky.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and I, if I was his roommate, i would seek a new roommate.
Speaker 1:Have you, have you ever had any like crazy roommates or any like roommates do some, some crazy, shady stuff?
Speaker 2:Man, all my roommates have been pretty good. I had one roommate that liked to drink quite a bit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's like a common thing.
Speaker 2:I feel like yeah he was a functioning alcoholic, though, so it was fine. right aside from that, i had You as a roommate.
Speaker 1:Yeah, i'm not very functioning number No but you're a terrific roommate you. Keep to your own.
Speaker 2:I just like to be by myself and then I had One of my best friends, which he's still my best friend, so clearly that went over. Well that one worked out and another one of my best friends, and he was actually Probably the best roommate ever. He paid all of his bills on time and he Was never home.
Speaker 1:Oh, those are the best roommates man.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he's gone all the time I. Love her mates like that And when he was home he just wanted to play call dude, he was me, or hang out or whatever.
Speaker 1:That sounds like the like the godsend roommate.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was broken.
Speaker 1:I've never got any cool roommates like that.
Speaker 2:No none.
Speaker 1:No one of my roommates in college yelled at me When I smoked weed Outside of the apartment because he smelled it and he's like I'm going to school for forensic science And it's not okay for you to smoke Drugs around our apartment. And I know my voice sounds weird when I did that because that's how the dude effin sound And it was like I literally remember being like I don't want to leave my room when this guy's here because he's like so Like I don't know, like I would try to do outside and be like you're respectful, you know, but whatever.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's it was college, bro.
Speaker 1:Like what are you supposed to do in college? So did you stay at that house? No, i ended up dating a girl Who lived actually by grandpa and moving in with her for a while. So I paid rent for like the summer wait, it was a girl that did what she live by grandpa Oh. She was by grandpa Yeah that's when I worked at the airport. Okay, that was weird time in my life.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that was a weird job.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was a really weird job. It's just trying to get a paycheck, you know. That's all I was trying to do. But, um, you want me to go into my last one, or? how many more articles do you have I?
Speaker 2:got one more. Man who opened emergency door on South Korea flight told police he felt suffocated.
Speaker 1:So this guy just opened a door, while it was like flying.
Speaker 2:While it was going, A passenger who opened an emergency exit door during a flight in South Korea told police that he felt suffocated and tried to get off the plane quickly as he approached landing. 12 people were slightly injured when the man opened the door of the Aegean Airlines Airbus A321 on Friday. Yeah, I don't know if anybody just a slightly injured.
Speaker 2:The plane which was flying to the city of Da-Dagu from the southern island of Jeju landed safely. The man was detained by police in Da-Goo for allegedly violating the aviation security law. If convicted, he could face up to 10 years in prison. The 33 year old told police that he had wanted to get out of the plane because he was feeling suffocated. I don't know if that's good enough reason for you to open the door Like I want. A couple hits.
Speaker 1:The guy just had like a nervous breakdown and just opened the plane door. That's what I'm hearing.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's okay, Never mind, we didn't read it all, we missed one. They said the man told police he had suffered stress because he had recently lost his job. So I mean, haven't you done something like that after losing a job?
Speaker 1:Opening a plane door No, no, nothing that drastic. After losing a job, what is the worst thing I've ever done, bro? I've never done something where I was like I put endangered other people's lives because I like lost my job. I just couldn't fathom doing that. It's ridiculous. I got to understand not being excited for your own life, but that's just. I feel like he didn't know how to express that. He was depressed because like there's like At least I'm not sure if this is true, but it used to be that like Asian cultures didn't really support depression and things like that, like mental health, like you got to just be part of the grind over there. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, i don't know that he was trying to harm himself, because he didn't try. It doesn't say he tried to jump out of the plane.
Speaker 1:Bro, but like 700 feet is still enough for the air pressure to suck people out right It didn't suck him out.
Speaker 2:It says that most of the injuries were minor problems such as breathing difficulties.
Speaker 1:Still, dude, that's got to be flipping scary man.
Speaker 2:I mean 700 feet. Aren't there some buildings that are 700 feet? 700 feet would be 70 stories. There's like 10 feet to a story, right.
Speaker 1:Yeah, relatively Probably a little bit less, because I think there's a little bit more like 10 feet is like an average.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there's 70 story buildings. In cartoons there's like 140. Well, i don't know.
Speaker 1:There's probably a 70 story building. You could look it up right now if you wanted to, but, like, tallest building in the world is over 100, right Is that in Dubai?
Speaker 2:We're going to find out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's in Dubai. I need to get better at talking while we're doing the typing.
Speaker 2:Exactly It says the tallest buildings in the world. The highest is. It's highest by a lot It's 163, and the closest to it is the Shanghai Tower, which is 128 stories.
Speaker 1:It's still an absurd amount. What's the tallest one?
Speaker 2:The tallest is the Burj Khalifa.
Speaker 1:Where's that at India?
Speaker 2:That is in, you guessed it, dubai. The UAE is height of 829.8 meters or 2,722 feet. Oh my.
Speaker 1:God, so that guy Just over half a mile. So this man opened the plane at only one fourth the height of the height, the tallest part of this building.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 1:Do those windows?
Speaker 2:open on that building, do you?
Speaker 1:think those windows open on that thing.
Speaker 2:On this building.
Speaker 1:They don't open.
Speaker 2:No, probably not, But somebody constructed it. What do you think? How do you think they?
Speaker 1:constructed it. Oh yeah, no, they constructed it, but that's just scary. My hands are sweating thinking about it. Dude, That's disgusting.
Speaker 2:I can never be on that building, somebody.
Speaker 1:You ever see that thing where everyone takes the Instagram pictures? that glass elevator?
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's.
Speaker 1:Where's that at?
Speaker 2:Apparently. There's tons of glass elevators.
Speaker 1:Alright. Well, is it in the Mall of America or some stupid shit? What's the glass?
Speaker 2:There's a 72-story glass elevator, the glass elevator from From Feet Street Plaza.
Speaker 1:I'm thinking of the one from Captain America, winter Soldier, i think.
Speaker 2:The tallest glass elevator is the Bay Long elevator, Literally the 100-drains.
Speaker 1:Where is it though? Yeah, but is there an American one? Because I highly doubt that the American people on Instagram go all the way to China.
Speaker 2:This thing's built into a cliff, though. That's pretty cool.
Speaker 1:It is super cool, but that's not the one we see on Instagram.
Speaker 2:No, I don't know what one you've seen on Instagram.
Speaker 1:It would be an American one, i'm guessing, or a European one, not a Chinese one. Nothing against China, but I just don't think a lot of Americans vacation there.
Speaker 2:There's one at the Vanderbilt Tower.
Speaker 1:That's probably it. Yup, that's it. That's disgusting. I would never do that. That guy looks scared, am I right?
Speaker 2:The child looks scared. Oh, is that a kid?
Speaker 1:Oh, that's a dad bending over helping him.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know that I would do that.
Speaker 1:No, I'm not doing that. I'll tell you. Actually, I won't tell you what I will do.
Speaker 2:What do you mean.
Speaker 1:I would probably base jump off that fucking thing with a parachute before I went in that elevator.
Speaker 2:Why.
Speaker 1:Because the elevator could fucking fall and break or something.
Speaker 2:There could be a tiny hole in the freaking parachute.
Speaker 1:I don't know. I just feel like parachutes are more meticulously What's the word I'm looking for? Every single time they pack a shoot, they go over it and inspect it.
Speaker 2:Who is they?
Speaker 1:When you buy a parachute or you pack a parachute or whatever, when you get it from somebody, you don't go out. If you pack it yourself, obviously, but you don't. There's people that give you these parachutes, daniel, there's companies that give you these parachutes. Yeah, i understand.
Speaker 2:But somebody who's really into parachuting is going to want to pack their own parachute and they're going to want to do it all the time.
Speaker 1:But I'm not really into that. So I would go and get it from.
Speaker 2:But if you're not, then you have to trust people. I would rather trust. You're assuming that every single person. No, that's not what I'm assuming.
Speaker 1:What I'm assuming is that the parachute person is more enthusiastic about the parachute than the fucking maintenance man who hasn't checked that fucking elevator in the last 20 years. That's what I'm assuming, or whenever the thing Those inspections are few and far between.
Speaker 2:It's the most magnificent glass elevator in America. They haven't checked it in 20 years.
Speaker 1:I don't know about that, but You just told me it's on.
Speaker 2:You're the one that told me That it's on Instagram, yeah.
Speaker 1:And you identified it immediately. I did because it looks clean, but that doesn't mean. how am I supposed to trust the technological fucking cable service?
Speaker 2:I'm saying that if it's a tourist attraction, they're maintaining it.
Speaker 1:I just don't trust them. When people earn it for the money and not for the love of it, I don't trust them.
Speaker 2:How do you know that the guy that's packing your parachutes is not in it for the money?
Speaker 1:Because you're not making a lot of money off the parachute packing business.
Speaker 2:He's probably a 17-year-old kid. No, okay, a 25-year-old kid.
Speaker 1:I'll give you a 25-year-old stoner. I'm a 25-year-old, super enthusiastic about base jumping.
Speaker 2:So enthusiastic that he overlooks the fact that he packed your bag wrong because he's worried about his jump that's coming up right after yours. And then Also the fact that he had a couple brews this morning with his bros. I don't Doesn't it?
Speaker 1:That sounds like a stereotype of a 25-year-old stoner. That's not very fair, you're the one that told me he's a 25-year-old stoner. You sound like Red Formant. You're going to put your foot up his ass.
Speaker 2:No, no, i need a clean foot.
Speaker 1:That's fair. That's fair. Do you want me to read my last article? or you got anything else to say about that topic?
Speaker 2:I am done with that, one Ready for yours.
Speaker 1:My next topic is a real awesome one. I'm really excited about this one. So how do you feel about Elon Musk?
Speaker 2:Lovely guy Used to hate him, absolutely loving that.
Speaker 1:It's so funny because I know so many people that are the opposite of you, where they used to love him and now they hate him.
Speaker 1:I've been an Elon Musk fan for a really long time, just because I'm the worst entrepreneur ever. I do things and I don't make money off of them. I like to think of myself as an entrepreneur. I get you, but until I live, i guess, on a factory floor of my space building, i don't know that I'll ever be as successful as him. That's just cool. Before we get into this next article, i like that he taught himself rocket science. I like that he's not afraid to like people are like that's impossible. He's not afraid to be like I don't care.
Speaker 2:You know He has unbelievable dedication to himself. Which isn't a bad thing. I'm just saying. But if he comes up with an idea, if you were to tell him it's impossible, he's going to do it if he can.
Speaker 1:He's going to do it if he believes that. Yeah, i also like. what I like is that, like sure, he is a father and he's got a wife and stuff, but, like you said, like he slaves away, like more than the dedication to himself, he also feels like he needs to do these things to advance the human race.
Speaker 2:Isn't that why a lot of people don't like him, though, is because not only is he a father, but he's a father to like 19 kids.
Speaker 1:I don't think it's 19. I think it's like two to four. You can look it up.
Speaker 2:No, it's much more than two to four.
Speaker 1:Is it 19?
Speaker 2:I don't know that it's 19. That might be a stress.
Speaker 1:My thought process was like he takes care of the kids monetarily, though.
Speaker 2:He has nine living kids Whoa, that's way more. Unfortunately, one died of SIDS, so he had 10.
Speaker 1:Okay, but like does he take care of his kids? That's the question.
Speaker 2:Like.
Speaker 1:I get like, if you're going to be upset with the guy for not like being a father, like in being in their life to play catch with them, but he's also literally like he has the. This is going to sound like such a douchebag thing to say, because so many people are like just be a good dad, But he doesn't get to do that, dude. He has the weight of advancing like the human race on his shoulders. You know what I'm saying? Like so if he's even like 45% a good father, that's still amazing, At least in, at least in my opinion a bunch of baby mamas.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but that doesn't mean anything. Just because he can't maintain relationships with with human beings doesn't mean that he's bad father.
Speaker 2:I'm not saying that.
Speaker 1:I can't really hold a good relationship with a woman, and that doesn't mean I'm a bad person.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, but I'm saying like I feel like the kids are like. Some of the kids are like the same age and shit like that Okay, well, that's fucked, but still, dad did that. No, I'm wrong. It says what this is. what do all three of Elon Musk's baby mamas having? So he's got three baby. That's not bad.
Speaker 1:I mean for nine kids. No, that's not bad at all. But like you can knock him if you want for being a bad father. But like I said, dude, like he's, if we go to Mars it's going to be because of him, you know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, I definitely think he's making his mark on the world And in in 100 years, if he was a bad father, it's not going to matter as much as it matters to the people today, because the people today need to survive through their children.
Speaker 2:That's going to be their legacy. Elon Musk is leaving his own legacy. He doesn't need to live through his children's legacy, so to him it doesn't really matter if he's a good father or not, because he is a valuable part of civilization right now, like literally, and if people say he's not, i hate that guy, they're literally just being ignorant and discrediting him.
Speaker 1:But so my article here says Elon Musk's Neuralink says it has FDA approval for human trials. This was updated, that's something that's freaky.
Speaker 1:Yeah, i don't know that. I think it's freaky. It says that Elon Musk's brain implant company said Thursday evening that it has Regulatory approval to conduct the first clinical trial of its experimental device in humans. Approval by the US Food and Drug Administration would mark a milestone for the company, which has been developing a device surgically inserted into the brain by a robot and capable of decoding brain activity and linking it to computers. Up until now, the company has conducted research on animals only Quotes. We are excited to share that we have received the FDA approval to launch our first inhuman clinical study. Neuralink announced on Twitter, calling it an important first step that one day will allow our technology to help many people. Musk retweeted the post, so he wanted to like kind of congratulate. The team says nearly. Neuralink didn't immediately respond to our quest to comment whenever this article people link reached out. Supposedly, though, musk prematurely said That they had approval in 2017 on Twitter. That didn't happen, so it could be false. It could be false, but I don't think he would make that mistake twice.
Speaker 2:Well, and the other thing is, he said that so long ago. It's been in the works for so long. I would believe that by now They probably and well, they wish, says that.
Speaker 1:And he they pushed it to 2020. They thought that they would be able to do it after that, and then to 2022. So 2023.
Speaker 2:It makes sense and you know, wouldn't be crazy that this would be the year that they got the approval to do it.
Speaker 1:This says I'm pretty sure you would not want the iPhone one stuck in your head if the iPhone 14 is available. Musk sat at an event in late November where he predicted the Neuralink would begin human trials in six months. That's weird. Is he say, like he's trying to say, like you don't want the one we have right now, you want the one in ten years from now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, and I wish that I could say that They're gonna have problems finding people to To sign up for these clinical trials, but it's gonna be so easy. You think so I would do it. I I feel like there's tons of people that would do it. I would not do it.
Speaker 1:I know, i know, i. So you do think people do it.
Speaker 2:I think people will do it. Yeah, I think it's Crazy that somebody would do it. But yeah, I think I don't. Why would you do it?
Speaker 1:I think that Us, as a human race, we are advancing so quickly that unless we integrate technology into our bodies, that's like the next level of evolution, because as our minds move and as a society we move so quick, unless we begin to augment ourselves with technology which sounds like a sci-fi fantasy, we will end up having the worst sci-fi horror movie, which will probably be Terminator or something like that you know what I'm saying where AI or some sort of thing like that Just takes us over.
Speaker 2:Okay, but why us?
Speaker 1:What do you mean? Why us like this humans?
Speaker 2:gonna happen in our generation.
Speaker 1:I do I, if the NeurLink is ready for human testing right now.
Speaker 2:I think it's gonna be that quick.
Speaker 1:I'm 36, daniel.
Speaker 2:Say, say, say you think in the next 40 years, think, think back think back to PlayStation 1, to PlayStation 3.
Speaker 1:What were the? what was the time frame when? when do we have a PlayStation 1, daniel? How old were you? Oh Man, i can't remember.
Speaker 2:It was a long, long time ago, i Was 10 maybe, okay, so you're 10 years old.
Speaker 1:That means that you were born in 1989, so that was 1999. We had a PlayStation 1.
Speaker 2:Well, i get where you're going with this and I'll say it's over eight years, between 1 and 3.
Speaker 1:Playstation 3 came out in 2006, so I'll give you eight years that the jump that you can make in eight years From something you know I'm saying is is Absorbently high. But this isn't something.
Speaker 2:This is something that they need people To test. They have people. We're willing to do it. Yeah, there's people that are willing to do it. But Why are there people that are willing to do? why you're telling me, oh, it's because it's gonna be, you're gonna have to have it in the future.
Speaker 1:No, that's not what I'm telling you. I'm saying I think it's good, it's good for the advancement of the human race, i Think. I think if I had a narrow link and you didn't, i would be, i would be have an unfair advantage versus you.
Speaker 2:But what about?
Speaker 1:what are the side effects? I mean, we don't know that death. I mean That's a side effect of anything. Technically.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but.
Speaker 1:I feel like if I'm gonna be afraid of the side, if I'm gonna be afraid of the side effect of death, then I'm not gonna live my life and like, obviously, if, if it's like a oh, if you get this implanted in your head you have a one and three chance to die, i'm not gonna do it. but if it's like a point, zero, zero, five percent chance of death, i'm gonna do it. I don't know, man, i would do it. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 2:I just know technology in your head like All the time.
Speaker 1:Like literally not needing a smartphone anymore, literally like just being able to call you. Like literally being able to access the internet without my goddamn fucking this. This monkey played Pong with his brain, didn't have a controller. I could do that right now without a controller in my head right now. Oh Pong, ding, ding ding but you're not showing me the game. I don't see it on the TV.
Speaker 2:So how would I see? how would you? you would project it through your eyeballs to me.
Speaker 1:No, the game of Pong is on the as on the computer. You know what I'm saying. I don't need a controller because it's on the internet.
Speaker 2:I'm on the internet.
Speaker 1:I'm controlling it With my brain. I, i, i.
