143: Fishing With Hitler

I think Bemrose in general has the right idea. Yeah. Let me show you. Hello, and welcome to episode number 143 of unrelenting, the podcast that never relents. I'm Darren O'Neill. He is jetting off to New York. Don't even try to spell it. Don't even try to think it. You're learning. You live on the mighty no agenda stream. Clean feed has changed its interface and they're like, oh no. With clean, feed free is now clean feed light.

Yeah. And I wanted to try a little bit, but they said you a link in there like this feature will be gone soon. You could only create one link and then everybody uses it. Yeah. Then that'll be gone as well. Right. Well, that's the next step from the by this, by this, by this. And I, I've said this many times over the years, I don't understand why they provide a free version in the first place. They want to get you hooked. I understand that much.

But the free version was enough that I didn't need to go pro. So that is. Yeah, where the problem occurs. It's like the, free version is so good that I remember we used caster for a while. We've tried a bunch of,

Zen caster, which I haven't used for literally several years. All the sudden I started getting emails saying, hey, you didn't update your credit card. You're like, no, I don't. I'm like, I don't have a subscription. Why would I need to update a credit card? But remember, Zen Caster said during Covid, when Covid was probably a couple months old, they said, everybody wants to try podcasting, so we're just going to give everybody the full plan for free. And they did that for two years, I think.

And then and then eventually they're like, well, Covid is kind of dying out. So, do you want to keep using it? You're going to have to start paying, which is when I stopped using it. But apparently their system still has my credit card on file. Well, of course, for your convenience, the new clean feed light will still have unlimited recording time, which is good. Yeah, they're now limited to two guests, which. Ooh, that's that's a big negative for a lot of people.

Yeah. For me and you probably not because we've learned. Yeah, that having. Well, we got four of us here. You know, we got two of us and we got the two of our egos. Right. And those are big. Yeah. The. Well, sir, the first ones having that's true. Having a co-host, everybody can handle having a co-host and a guest. You can still pull off a decent show. Anything beyond that starts to get bumpy.

Yeah. So I don't even have that big of an issue with the number of guests also because with the MOTU, I could just open up two different versions of, clean feed and double that. Yeah, it won't do multitrack recording, although it never did. The free one. No. Five. The C controls on the free one, of course. Yeah. No. No markers, no studio tools, no audio repair. And now local audio sources. One, although I think that's always been the way. And you're remote. It has to be on your in two models.

What it's clicking now. Yeah that's interesting. I don't hear anything on your ad yet. So that's a good good. Is it that or we're you know having any kind of an issue here with the, with the others. There's definitely no no options of any kind anymore in here. No. That's the other true thing. It's like you got what you got. And if you think you're going to change anything, pretty much. No. It's very straightforward. The audio quality is still good.

It's a also, though, we're at the time where there are a lot of options for good quality audio. This isn't when it when clean feed started, this was still a harder thing to find. Now it's a lot easier to be able to connect, including we never even tried. Allegedly with the Mo two, you might be able to just connect those together without a without a middleman and be like, well, that's all we need.

The remote audio mono only not really that hard to believe, but you have unmuted yourself if you're not aware, maybe you are. I was just trying to explain. I think this thing did some AI and muted me because, I was trying to say, you know, zoom has become a very good option for podcasts because they've added podcast specific stuff in there and, including not just recording, but generating the, summaries, doing chat during and having either a full mix or

a individual person per soundtrack option. And of course, they've had the musicians mode for a long time, which effectively disables all the filtering and getting the normal zoom does for meeting. Yeah, the lowest latency is possible. The best quality song, audio going back and forth. The zoom does have its own free version, which does limit, I think, the time duration, whereas the paid version is unlimited time or, well, like eight hours or something. Now there's three different versions.

Now, clean feed. Although I don't know why anybody would use clean feed cinema. That seems a little bit odd. But it will allow for center stage video at, 60 frames a second. That is 2500 a year. So let's just take that one. Wow. Right off the, do you have free. Oh, I, I can tell you what that's for, for people doing remote voiceovers like Bill O'Reilly's doing, it probably more for people doing voiceover work. That too.

But I think this including the video, I could tell O'Reilly this week was in West Palm Beach, and his audio and video sucked. And you could tell that there was a massive amount of compression. So I'm guessing the way he does the show kind of like, the daily news tech news show with, and the, you know, what's his name and, and then what's her name? You know, the one that used to be a Leo show. Then Rose's favorite guy. I forget their name, but it's a daily tech news show. And the Roger Chang.

I remember Roger Chang. So good on you, Roger. He's the producer. And the other two are remote, so I'm guessing the way the show is recorded is there's one guy at one location, Tom Merritt. Thank you. Cotton gin. And, maybe that's what he was doing, because you're that way you'd have a system otherwise. I don't understand you. I know why he likes them. Because he looks like them. Who looks like who? What's his face looks like Tom Merritt. Lee. Oh, no, not the cotton gin.

Oh. Not memorable memory. Oh, man. You're you're not hitting your usual, 500 here. I didn't take any B-12 today. That's the problem. That, too. Let me just back up on the B12. But here's the thing. So now you basically have light and pro and for light. As I said, the number of guests, two, for pro, you know what the number of guests is. Three 3232 I should be 33. Got them right. But can you imagine having. Well, it would be 33 with the host.

Can you imagine having 33 people live on a fucking podcast? I've seen not that many that I've seen videos. I think with 16, which becomes completely unmanageable. Yes. If you don't mute somebody and then go back to them, it's cause it's got the multitrack recording and all that, and it is $34 a month and there's a discounted rate for $22 a month. Like that's still rough. I mean, 22 is more reasonable, but for 32 you could get much more interesting systems than that. Yes, you certainly can.

And to qualify for the discount, if you're an individual for personal use only, not expense to a business. And now more than 100, they're not more than $10,000 per year of commercial activity. So that's like decent. That's nothing I would qualify. So all of my shows combined to $10,001. He told me just about that, you know, for a year. Yeah. And of course I have to split that with you and Rose and Larry. So by the time I get it for the about that, it said expense to a business.

Or if you're an official registered charity or nonprofit can we just be a registered that charity. Yeah we should talk about that. Or we could be a recognized educational establishments such as a school, college, university. You have a religious establishment but we're still for Texas. Yeah. Who are we going to and who are going to fucking at zoom right now? Okay, so this is zoom, which gives you better quality than this thing. I think, it is 1333 per month.

Yeah. You keep it, it just beats automatically there's three threes in there. It's that number. So now it also does all the same stuff as like the multitrack recording and all that. It it will do up to 100 participants per meeting him up to 30 hour long meetings. This is clearly for our Chinese friends. It has the AI companion crap built in. It stores up to five gigs of your audio stuff. They've got a thing called Google Docs. Now, I don't know if you've seen that.

If you don't like Google Docs, they've got a thing called Zoom Docs, which is a knockoff of Google Docs. So if you want to store your documents in the cloud in China, you could use that. They have Clips Plus, which is unlimited. And of course they've got integration with Mail and Calendar. So you don't ever miss a podcast recording because you forgot that you were having stomach issues.

Now, Billy Bones just came up with our perfect religious spin off so we could make him a bishop in the religion. Unrepentant. That's a great domain. I love it. It's probably somebody who's really got that, like, oh, what are you doing? Everybody think the, opus is the, what's the codec that clean feed is using? I'm seeing if they actually say what the bitrates, someone does have on repenting that come to that. Good. So much for that religion. That'd be good, man.

But, yeah, I can't see paying 22 bucks a month just to have an audio connection. I know, I mean, that's a literally like a $99 a year type thing. If that was if that's if they would have just come out like 99 bucks a year, then you have the access to clean feed, bro, I'd be like boom, paid, but not 22 bucks a month if you could even qualify. I'm sure we could, but that's still 250 bucks a year, though. That's way too much. It's it's a lot, way too much.

So that was deep in the weeds with the clean free talk here. Yep. But zoom and what else is everybody use it. I mean there's a lot of these as you said, we tried there. There are quite a few. There's a lot of them. They're like, well you'll have video even if we don't record video. And so you can see your co-host gene and I were always like, what the fuck would we want to do that for? Yeah, we don't want to look at each other. There's no it's not like it's we're it's good to use it for timing.

Like we're going to do finger signals and hand signals like okay, well if X ever upgraded their audio codecs, they do have a system in place to do literally a podcast, but they have a system in place to take money too, which is going they do radio, but like signing up for it though. Remember, I struggled with this for several days and finally gave up. It's got to be legal in your state. Well, okay, no one that X has been signing up to be a bank basically in every state.

But you were trying to just promote. I spent a give them money I know and give them your credit card. And they were like, nope. Did that ever get resolved or are they just do they actually take I gave up promotions from anybody? Or is this just like ads? I see ads, so they're obviously doing it but not promoted posts. How would you know if a post? Because I've never noticed anything on a promoted post is an that.

But okay, but so it wouldn't just be like from somebody that you're following and it would just show up higher in the it would just show you here's the, here's a different it shows up. So when you're promoting an ad, it shows up in people that have no connection to you. But there is a connection through the types of topics that they follow. So that's where it would show up. Like, I've been getting a lot of AI music and ads popping up lately.

Well, because you love the AI, because I love the music. Exactly. And so I have started reaching out to these people that are paying for the ads saying, hey, tell me what kind of results you're getting with the advertising. I'm curious what what putting an ad like that does. So if you add all the all the ads do is point to you to like two videos. So I'm like, are they making more money off of YouTube than they're spending on X because of that? Right? Formula works right?

And holy shit man, you just buy a by advertising on the X that points your video that generates more revenue than what you spend. That's a it's a moneymaking machine. Yeah. If you can get people to click, if you get people to click right the first. I don't think we're that far from the world being fooled by a new artist, which ends up being, I. I know there's a lot of them out there, and you can tell that they're I, but sooner or later it's going to happen.

This preoccupation with trying to tell if it's a I don't care. Very funny. Yeah you don't. Well, maybe you do, maybe you don't. But to me it's the exact same thing that we had when gramophones were invented 200 years ago. It's this idea we were around to remember that. Well, fair enough, but it it was funny because it's the exact literal same reactions people like. Well, this in there were replaced in the orchestra. This is ridiculous. It sounds horrible.

No one would ever want to listen to this when they can hear, a person actually singing in person. How that turn out. Recorded music has made a few dollars in vinyl records. Being a musician makes very short it dollars 000, especially now. Yeah, especially now though I honestly the tools that we have now and I'm specifically I'm using Walmart's website, which is, you know, but as I've gotten to figure out, you know, and why, you still know when that audio was when you.

Because I think the quality is better. I've tried both of them, but, you know, I think it's better quality music. But I've now figured out the language for programing it, which is very cool. In a lot of ways it's it's a very similar idea to learning how to do, images or I guess videos in some cases now as well. It's basically prompt engineering. How do you build a prompt delivers what you're actually trying to achieve. Well, right. You know, has the exact same thing.

They don't really tell you that, there's not all they say is just give us a topic or create a song or give us a, lyrics. Then we'll we'll make the music for it. But the lyrics with the genre. So you can put in, like, heavy metal. Yeah, exactly, exactly. But beyond that, there's a number of other things that they don't tell you to do that, that they absolutely recognize is.

So you can absolutely do prompt engineering and have it write music in exactly the way you want it to be, not just totally random House. I mean, what kind of details are we talking about? Well, you can you can literally control, like, what you want wanted, like, if you understand, the music theory, like, for movies, I mean, you could give it something like 12 bar blues. You can give it to, like, you can. You can give it a, place a hook here. You could put a, an outro there.

You can give it all kinds of commands. I guess that's the differences rather than just styles and lyrics. You can also give it commands of what you're trying to achieve at that spot in the lyric. And by doing that, by guiding it, it really goes from a novelty in my mind to no different than any of the electronic music creation tools that currently exist. That kind of broad from a combination of deejaying and synthesizers. Oh yeah, because that's what a lot of popular music is.

Yeah, absolutely. Are loops, loops before. So and then you're adding a human voice. That's the hardest part. Yeah. But once you can add the human voice, that is believable. Yep. Then, all bets are off. And the reality is we know that the AIS are good at recognizing patterns. And nowhere is that more vital than in music. Well, it's also pretty vital when it comes to the, Reading the bank account of the United States government.

Zero. I think then there was the analysis that, Elon's boys are doing is turning up some fascinating, fascinating things, like the fact that the U.S government is the entity that's been funding Democrat institutions now for decades.

Oh yeah. That's the scam. They've been putting the money into the things that help them get reelected. They put so much money into things and other countries and everybody if you're paying attention, has seen the list where it was like what 71,000 for some gay production in Ireland. There was like word back that trans comic books in Peru or somewhere, the one that I have to say was a good, it actually turned out to be a very good product with, Sesame Street for Iraq, right?

To was it like 2 million or 2 billion for that? It was a huge amount. It was, 20 million, a lot of money. Yeah. But but who doesn't need Iraqi Sesame Street? It was, it was, better than Sesame Street. That was my comment to the video, like, Holy shit, I want this. This is way better dollars. Guess what? There's no transgender zone. It. Well, no. Of course. Yeah. And, you know, the the men, they're all bearded, which is perfect for you. You're like, this is my people. Yeah, yeah.

Even even the Oscar's sitting in his trash cans got a beard. The would be the Oscar the Grouch character that you just pop up, you say something, me, and you just disappear right back. I never say anything mean. I don't know what the hell are you talking about? You're a professional troll, idiot. Welcome to unrelenting, everybody. You're amazed we've made it over 100 episodes, aren't you, sir? It it is amazing, isn't it? It is. Here we are, like 132. This is, today's show would be 143. Oof!

Wow. One four. Three. That's pretty good. We should have done something for 133 and think about it. Well, I mean, we're not the heir apparent anymore for no agenda. Never were found that out your imagination, I know. Well, you know the the heir apparently was, announced yesterday at the end of no agenda. No, I didn't hear. What was it? Planet rage. Planet rage, Islam out there. Adam said when these like it's the most no no agenda like show. That is true.

It is a complete blatant rip off that part. He's absolutely right about that. He likes it and said in four years when he and JC, we'll just we'll just slot Planet Rage up into the, no agenda slot and everybody, it's like Christian life ain't going to happen. Hey, we have for one, we have four years to get Christian. You better start getting baptized and hurry to you. Do you understand that Larry there. Yeah. Yeah. He's an actual radio professional. Unlike you he's a radio professional.

But you know besides that Larry show what the spin off of that Larry show is right to show called Sinners Sunday. That's all about religion. Larry's a good Irish Catholic boy just like me. Really? Yeah. We fit right in. I mean, we are you right, then. Yeah. You'd have to brush up on it. But if he's got that going, then that's where I would be the heathen and Larry would bring us all into back into the fold. Yeah. Too bad that only, like, a small percentage population can hear that low.

But I know we have to see. Have somebody translate Larry's voice. Maybe you'll have an AI tool by that point that can just boost the frequencies of of both your voices. You need a little bit. He needs a lot. Maybe if clean feed or zoom could actually take the voices and make them, in the air, actually clean it, make everybody hear it.

You know, I have to I have to tell you this, and you're not going to believe it, but I have, video evidence or at least, screenshot of a fake video evidence I've gotten probably, like, three different people commenting in comments that they think I have a soothing. And another person said a godlike voice. I mean, the soothing. I could understand, like people tell me they put on my YouTube videos, fall asleep. That's the content. So and I'm like, Holy shit, that's awesome.

I need to start cranking this stuff out more. But the content is video games. But the, the beauty of it is that is your ideal customer, because a person who's falling asleep, yeah, isn't going to change your YouTube channel. The video viewer. Yeah. I'm like, hell yeah. That's the kind of shit that I want. That's what pays for big money. Advertising is what it's all.

So the way that YouTube measures engagement on the video is what percentage of the overall duration of the video did the person watch? Oh, I know this has happened to me a few times lately. I was watching like this on YouTube and fell asleep in like 2.5 hours later woke up and there's still like this. Nothing. It's just like four shows later. Yeah, exactly.

And that's why it's also very important for all you YouTube people, which probably is zero is make sure that you always have another video set up to autoplay, because if you don't do that, then some random channel might start out of playing. But as long as you have one of your own videos set up for how to play after the video ends, then they'll just keep going with more of your stuff, which is what you want. Yeah, you got to keep them with you.

But what you need to do is, I mean, you have, do you still have the 11 labs account? You know, because what you need to do

is training AI with your voice. That is so soothing. Yeah. The download is every open source lullaby. Yeah, it's the, fairy tale. And you could just have a channel, like, put your kids to sleep. Oh, my God, that's a great idea. I'm probably going to steal it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll catch him. I'll, I'll maybe, you know, if it if it gets super successful, I'll pay for your, clean feed subscription. And I can only imagine the, the promos, like, let your kids sleep with Gene.

Teams. Wrong. Michael Jackson tried that. I think at one point. Didn't work out, but now, I mean, I worked out fine. What are you talking about? He had a great. He had a great time. Nobody complained. Now that's true. That is true. That's a fact. And, you know, a lot of people say, well, how the hell would parents let their kids sleep over with a grown man in the same bed? Because nobody looked at him as a grown man? Well, that's one thing.

But the other thing is all the kids that are now adults that when they interviewed say that there was zero touching going on like it's it's hard for normal people, I think, to imagine that somebody who doesn't want to actually have sex with a kid. Right. Well, the for Democrats anyway. No, I mean, looking at him like just that you look at him, you're like, well, clearly he's a pedophile. I mean, look at him. But it turns out, no, he does have some weird predilections.

But diddling kids, apparently one of them, he had bubbles the monkey for that while he had. Yeah. Bubbles. He had, like a pet giraffe or something. He had, that would be awesome. Having a pet. I heard an interview with a a doctor that accompanied a kid who was, you know, like, dying of cancer or some shit that had a wish to go meet Michael Jackson. And, the doctor was there with the kid for several days with Michael, and he said, yeah, nothing happened.

Like Mike, like, the guy is, again, it's sort of like. I think it's sort of like looking at somebody who dresses slutty and is attractive at the same time and going, well, obviously we know what that person's going to be like. So like, net net, I was thinking more of a hot chick, but your imagination can run to wherever you want and just trolling for boost, man.

And then it turns out that, you know, the hot looking, slutty looking dressing chick is a version, and it's like, well, that doesn't make any sense. Well, I mean. It's not statistically likely, but it is possible, right? It could just be. And I think that's where we had with Michael. Is that looks like a pedophile. Dresses like a pedophile as kids over to the South. Like a pedophile. Like a pedophile, but apparently not a person. Yeah, well, people make their own, draw their own conclusions.

They don't understand somebody overall being. And of course, they tried to, they try to make the worst out of it. And you can understand why. Well, they were trying to steal his music. Yeah, I know that. Says he only dresses slutty for church. That makes sense. That could just be the girls that don't want to go to church. And the family drags. So they figure they're going to dress like Madonna. The one from the music videos, not the one from the church.

It's, Does, does are our buddy the make tester have a list of all the stuff he says? Some work because I couldn't really find that on the video. You know, I'm not sure if he ever has put together a whole list of all the items bander. We need that so we can have a quick reference. If you're like, I'm looking for this, it seems to have multiple YouTube channels, which is annoying.

He does because of for different things because one, he was smart enough to separate shorts from the main channel because I can't tell you how many main channels I've gotten rid of because the shorts were coming up in the timeline. That's one thing that the, YouTube folks haven't figured out yet.

Give me a toggle that if I am subscribe to a channel, you know, say like the Tick Nation channel, which obviously I can't even find my phone channel because all this other crap is popping up in the podcast, which is the microphone channel, podcast. Okay. So it doesn't even have his name in there. No, no. It's okay. So I could do a search. You could show that you have the technology to do a search. I do have that. I'm going to do that as, as I only have. My brain is tied behind my back.

There's the to rush live here on the mighty No agenda stream. Jean is doing a YouTube search. That's right. Like, for sure, you have an AI to do this by now. Maybe Apple Silicon. What do they call it? Apple intelligence. Yeah, that's I have multiple apples. That's true. Now notice I allegedly now the apple intelligence I don't know if there are restrictions. Haven't looked at it yet at how it what you can use as the audio file.

But allegedly if you record things you can import them into notes and it will do what like Adobe Premiere does for me, which is it will give you a transcript and also do the AI bit, summaries using so you can take the audio allegedly of a podcast. It would do a transcript and then spit out a summary of what was in that podcast, all included with Apple intelligence. That's amazing. We'll see it.

Also, look up while you're on the internet. Yeah. The wife and I were arguing. Amy spelled, who am I normally? Amy? Am I on heart? Hot or not? Okay, let's do this. Amy. Earn heart. Yes. Wife of Dale Earnhardt Jr. I mean, look at images that would help to have a lot of images with some dude with a beard to Dale Earnhardt Jr. Clearly has good taste in men, race cars. I mean, she's got a kind of a resting bitch face that's going against her. I mean, there's literally nothing wrong with that.

I mean, sometimes solid sex, sometimes the mean girls are, okay, he's a solid six. She's feisty. That's a good find. She was a cheerleader for the University of Kentucky. Those. I haven't found the pictures, but those could be better. What is the acronym for that? The unk, probably just UK. You really UK? It's not going to work. There's another. There's another university or just Kentucky. Full baby. But I thought she's fairly hot. I mean, one again. It depends. He's a six dresser street.

Wow. You are a tough grader. He's a six, dude. They look at a lot of women. He's a six. Yo. Okay, this is going to be a new segment for the show. We need a, a little jingle for it. And people can then with booster grams of a certain amount, send in a single image, and Gene will give you a number. You're welcome to send the many images under sheets like the more the better. I mean, UK is the correct acronym, but you know, there are some other UK is out there. There are some others.

But, the wife is like, well, no, she's more like the, you know, somebody like you would see as the lead in a hallmark movie. And I'm like, yeah, usually those are fairly hot chicks. Not really. Now, jeans like those are all fours. I mean, even a three thrown in every now and then, a six is general throughout. Yes. If correct. If she is over 23. Billy Bond says the gene scores starts going down, exposing the genes because she has an asymmetric face. Her nose curves to the left.

He has one, drooping eyelid. There's a lot of plastic surgery that needs to get done on this body to make her be anything I. And it's like, wow, that need sending in a photo. Let's see. He's like, you know that I used to photograph women, right? Well, I thought you were equal opportunity. No, you were like, okay, dude, get out of here. Yeah. She's like, we're going to do some boudoir photography shows up with the boyfriend jeans. Like, no. Yeah, you can come back and pick her up in three hours.

She made me ready. Done. By then, she may not, she'll be thirsty. Make sure you bring some water. Yeah, I would say, I'm going higher than a six. Matt. Natalie added. Dude is, adds to. I know for Gene, the attitude doesn't even play a part. With his attitude is a separate category that you can't dump that into. How does she look? But it's part of being hot attitude. There's a certain you gotta get at least a bonus point or two. Now for the attitude.

No, no you don't, because that attitude is a facade that has no, no bearing on what that person actually is like. Okay, what if she was wearing a poncho? So what? No, you're not going to buy me with a poncho. Doesn't make any difference. No, no. Not hot. That would be the perfect ugly. She's in good shape. The exercise, but definitely not hot. Billy Bond says if she drives a pickup, that's worth two points. You're not going to get to drive her pickup, dude, so don't even think about it.

You're not even be able to get in the back. I mean, that is quite obvious. I would just say these are the kind of arguments you get into with your wife when you watch YouTube videos. I remember those arguments. Absolutely. And you never win them. You may feel like you think I'm trying to. Actually, it's been so long now since I was married. It's been like 15 years, so I'm trying to remember which side did I usually fall on?

The she's hotter or she's less hot than you think because you're like, well, what is what does she want to hear when you honest or not, what you wanted to hear. Hence I'm divorced, right? This is, this makes, I think I believe in truth above everything else. So that's, part of the deal, but which is why you posted Grog's roasting of you, which was. Wow. Wow. Yeah, it was pretty good, right? Yeah. Mine was shorter because I have less ex, I think than. No, okay.

Than you do, but, I mean, it was definitely brutal. There's no two ways about that. It's, you know, it it calls out a lot of things. Not necessarily true, but certainly things that you would hear in a actual roast all that. Well, I did you was this part of you saw somebody else do this so you might jump there. This was. No, I just I was using grok and I saw a button that says, you want me to roast you. You see? Okay. I was like, sure you're the guy.

You're the kind of guy who thinks is IQ is 187 but can't figure out why. Is tweets about bringing back the thousand dollar bill are in trending? Do you have posts about the thousand dollar bill? Several times. It's bullshit that we don't have them. You've got the facial hair of the philosopher, but the content of your post suggests you might be using that beard to hide your chins disappointment in your tweeting joys lives. Yeah. Wow. That's the worst enemy. The whole thing's mean.

That's the point of it. It's supposed to be mean. You complain about government employees but seem to forget you need them to, you know, run the country while you're busy retweeting videos of husky puppies beating kittens. Oh wait, you do puppies and kittens videos too.

Well, clearly you don't follow me. So you wouldn't know, would you know, I, I every time I do a Kittens and Puppies video, I send it to, JCD and grok is obviously English because it says you're so concerned about illegal immigrants being deported while simultaneously advocating for less government oversight. Make up your mind, mate. Or maybe it's Aussie is grok in English or Aussie because certainly not American because no American use it.

South African, Jesus Christ. Well, Elon made it South Africa and they say mate in South Africa they do. Yeah. Although one of the most hottest mate women in the world come from South Africa, that would be Candice Swanepoel. I just feel that well, we'll see if she's hot or not. That's a an EOPOELS1 up. Well if you type in Candice and they'll they'll, let's talk about your profile pic is the only thing green about you. Your politics are reading my profile.

That one I understand because there's nothing green in my profile pic at all. It's true, your politics are more like a traffic jam of contradictory bumper stickers. You dream of Trump's approval like it's the ultimate validation. But buddy, even he might think twice about retweeting your love letters to him. So here's to you, sir Gene, the man who thinks he's a political pundit but ends up sounding more like a confused uncle at Thanksgiving dinner.

Keep tweeting though the world needs its entertainment, so even grok still calls it tweeting. You know, it's funny, isn't it? It's like it's X now keep practicing. Keep saying yes, keep posting, keep trying, keep doing. So I'm looking at this chick. She's got a an eight face and they I'd say a nine and a half body. Now you're looking at is it a current one. Because she is getting older now. So I'm looking you a whole bunch of her older photos here. Hard to beat.

I mean, you would you would notice. I mean, that's not what you like. Yeah. For she's got a very good body, but her face is not outstanding. There are definitely much prettier faces out there in the modeling. Now, I did the roast me thing as well as yours. Yeah. For instance, Adriana Lima. Gorgeous. Back in the day. Back in the day. For about a three year period. She was quite hot. The same age. Well, the graphic is shorter for mine.

It says, Darren, you're really out here championing no agenda, like it's the Rosetta Stone of media literacy. But let's be real, your devotion is starting to sound like a conspiracy theory conspiracy theorist version of a podcast infomercial. You're so deep in the item cult that you're probably waking up at 3 a.m. just to yell boost at your phone, right? I did wake up at three, but I just. I had to pee. I'm old.

While you're busy trolling the internet with your rock and troll pre-show, the rest of us are wondering if you've even considered that maybe, just maybe, the M5 amp isn't the only thing distorting reality. Your oversize glasses and that red radiating background in your profile pic are doing a solid job of that too. And of course, the picture is a, meme as a Funko. So, interesting. Keep rocking, pre-show guy.

But maybe take a break from the mic and let somebody else handle the thought for a change. So weightless, weightless, mean then the one for you? Yeah, definitely. You make the AI mad. Of course, it's not really mad and it doesn't have a consciousness and it really doesn't know. I've got 10,000 posts on X in the last two years. That's a lot. That is a lot. Let me see. What do I have? I have all this is where do you this is the total post somewhere. How many of I do have 37, 59 followers?

How many followers do you have? 25. Just a little. 25 I think. So we're like, we'd like to stick with Gene, but no, no. Well, I get a lot of new followers, but they don't laugh. Oh, like your relationships. Back. Right. Wives. They come, they go, they come, they go. You're 685 followers. Wow. That's up. If one subscription. I'm just two good old boys. Dot com grb. I mean, I see it's nice that you're trying to promote the grumpy old Benz show. Yeah, whatever. The just too good old boys.com.

Where, where's the, representation of, searching speaks? Where's the representation of the unrelenting show?

I don't see any of that. And they only have one length. I don't see all this in the timeline, but you can change your profile. The background is nothing. It's blank. Why don't you put your multiple shows up in there? This is. I haven't created an image to do something. Oh, you have a grok. You have an AI. You can do anything you really want. And a grok version of what unrelenting looks like. Is he going to be flattering? Phifer says you need a link tree. Oh, yeah. We got.

Where do we sign work without the gene all over the internet. It's all the question there. Let's see. Troll count 56. Wow, that's 56 more than I thought. So there's 56 people listening live with all the bots thrown in, Right now, we did have a few boost, so I wanted to make sure we got those in before it was like the last minute of the show. Yes, people do complain. I know we're right. As we were leaving the show, Dred Scott had this. 777 he said, My Drogba is sitting under my desk.

I need the power that bigger than maybe convert my closet full of DVDs. Yeah, but just keep in mind, if you actually keep that shit powered off long enough, it will die. You know, I want to know where drab is in the world, he says. One of the reasons I stopped was that I realized it was costing me about $20 per spinning drive per month on electricity that is a lot more than that day.

Yeah, I mean, I pay like it's usually about 150 bucks a month, and I'm running multiple buy more computers than I can actually like. Okay, I can count them. There are four main computers running right now. There are three main NAS is there are two external parts of the NAS. There are three big monitors. And then the air conditioning runs when it's the summertime. And I still don't have anywhere near these on the West Coast, according to Billy Bowen. So maybe it is just a California thing. Wow.

But your electricity is so high that it's unbelievable and saying, yeah, I like to trouble. I like the concept. I know this thing's going to die at some point. I know the company is long gone. I'm kind of surprised that nobody has gone in and figured out the system and come up with new software for the hardware. But I have not see if anybody knows if anybody has accomplished that as of yet. I'd be interested to know.

But the reality is we all want to move to a device, a mass with a bunch of M2 drives. I noticed there was one from, I think it was Terra master that had it was 800 bucks, but it would fit eight M2 drives, which is horrible. Yes, and I'm doing that right. And, dude named Ben named Ben, named Ben named Ben. I like that guy. He, he hasn't donated to the show in a while, although he hasn't done so. That's a good point. He's talking about that.

Yeah, but, see, we were talking about Nazis and was like, you and I have been talking about also upgrading to M2 Nazis. So. And he sends me links like, I'm thinking of buying this thing and it's like it's a new version, but it's an old school NAS like six regular hard disk. Like, why would you buy that? That makes no sense to me. If you're going to buy any NAS in 2025, well, it's cheaper, but otherwise it's 680 bucks. But the drives to your price with terabyte well, right.

Drives are cheaper. Yes, that's a good point. But apparently this NAS that he sent me. And I'll also enjoy it as well if you want to look at it. But it it has air features in the NAS. Oh. So it can spy on you. But I'm like, okay, that just seems silly to pay money for. And then as with I, when I, I don't know, it doesn't make sense. Well it depends on what the I supposed to do because for a NAS I use the very barebones basic.

I just want it to be there so I can store music, movies, television shows and backups. That's it. I don't need a lot of people want it to be able to run different doctors, different containers, so they can run things. I've never really done that. I've done that on my neighbors. And that's what that killed off my first wallet as I was running it in the Docker. And then, NAS crashed.

And someone died. Of course, nothing that points out he's been seeing a lot of M2 drive failures over the last five years, which is the issue. You know, it's a question of, yeah, if you buy cheap shit, you will have issues for sure. Like the same thing with normal. Yeah. Metal drives, if you stick, if you stick to well known reputable brands, they will predictably tell you way before it fails. For AI powered video and image recognition applications. What does that even mean?

I think it's, basically, if you want to have AI powered video and image recognition, I think I've looked at this one. I like the Qnap lacuna app is my main yeah, NAS system and I like it. It works. The software does what it's supposed to do. It's not as handy holding as the what's a Synology signal G but nowadays it got very powerful software. And so you you're if you understand computers a little bit, Synology is going to be your best bet. The killer app is more like it's dumb stupid.

Like anybody can use this thing. It just works. I mean, that's what I like about it. It just works. Exactly. It it also comes with free 16GB of cloud storage. What the fuck exactly is 16 gig now for 16 terabyte? I'm with you. What's fucking 16 gig?

I guess the configuration for something for your NAS backup, I don't know, but I don't understand what they're actually trying to sell, and they don't really even try to do it because normally they've got, you know, your big bullshit, bro says it's all marketing bullshit. You can tell by the AI powered part. Yes, I know right now. I guess there is the they're talking about the comprehensive surveillance solution.

I know a lot of people use these devices, and I used to I used to have my NAS run all the, cameras in the house, but it just, you know, you're storing terabytes and terabytes of video footage, most of which is just not interesting. Supports a neon technology that accelerates video processing for a better media experience. Super duper with the six bay devices and bad. I mean, I go back to it. I don't even know what the pricing is or who's making what now, because everything is changing.

But I always like the idea of having one NAS that had like 24 drives in it. Of course you still need to backup everything that's on that because if that thing gets hit by lightning or something that that, you know, it's to go to the back into the thing. So there's a four bay, SSD thingy that I see here that, that fits under a mac mini. That's kind of neat because that, that was a the old Mac mini is those were a little bigger. I mean, look, see which one it fits in there.

But the little hundred and 17 millimeter. So probably the old one. Yeah. The little one that I turtle device I have that fits one and two fits very easily on top of a right. And there's no way that could fit for them to use in there. No enough room. Yeah. Well probably it's mine then this would fit under mine. You got the old Mac mini idea with now the Mac junkie

account? Yes. Or for 434, you could get the six bay all SSD NAS storage from as you store, which I've seen, videos of seen people like. It's pretty damn good and it's gone down in price a little bit. If it dropped to like 3 million, I might pick one up. You gotta have a place for all your stuff. Well, I would love to just get rid of my Synology and just have, you know, and SSDs use a build your own that Ned sent here, the argon EO and Pinus. Oh, I'm guessing this thing is powered by a Pi.

Probably build your own network. Attached storage takes advantage of natural heat conduction. Conductivity. Let's see here. Programable I would hope four bay, seven hard drive ports. It can fit two, 3.5in drive. No. And two 2.5in. That's still too small. Too small I mean it's good for people that just want to do well six is these feels like that's the minimum.

That I would do. The more the merrier they'll start. They also have a 12 bay but that's not as expensive 775 bucks for the 12 bay. It's probably not even the best price for it. It's just more than I want to spend on an empty as well. That's the other thing, you know, it does add up very quickly. Yeah. But of course, that version, the $700 version, has a ten gig Ethernet port, which. Well, I would hope so.

Then you look at what you know, if you want to get quality eight terabyte SSD drives and you want to put like six of those in the machines, I mean, what are you up to like 5000 bucks? You know, which, to be fair, is where you were. I remember buying our earliest desktops, which were 3030 500. But forget about that. Just my current NAS. You know, when I bought the drives for it, which are, I think mostly four terabyte drives, those were comparable, if not more than four terabyte SSD today.

Yeah. That's true. I mean, the reality is I should look at my current NAS systems and go, can I replace the four terabyte drives with 12 or 24 and then would have more than enough storage? I mean, that's one way to look at it. The other way to look at it is I've realized I don't need all this crap. So let me just get a DNS that takes up a lot less space, which would be more of what I'd be leaning towards. Yeah, but I'm a hoarder. Yeah. You are. We also had a couple of boost from Speedy Bubble.

I like Speedy Bubble. He came in with one, two, three, 4 or 5. That is what we call a legit boost. He says surge read. Do you leave your iPad's charging constantly. I know the Chargers are supposed to prevent overcharging, but I don't think that's always worked perfectly. I've had the same screen separation happen with an Android tablet. Also I had it happen with the Nexus four phone, but it was in a closed area that was probably overheated as well. Just curious. I've never had an iPad separate.

Yeah, so yes and no. I have had the one iPad separate that was permanently plugged in. It was just sitting on my desk. It's also my oldest of the iPad pros that I had this happened to, and it's only been iPad pros. It's not the normal iPads. So I think the pros tend to run hotter. They have the the nice screens that are, hundred and 20Hz. Refresh. Yeah. Why was the first version of the iPad Pro? And it's old and it has not.

So the first when you say first, you mean the big one, the 13 inch. Yes. I still have that same thing. First version. It's never separated. No, I have the second version. I remember because a buddy of mine got it before me if you were pissed and I was pissed, but I was smart enough to wait for the Gen two to come out before I spent money. That was like a $1,600 device. They weren't cheap.

I mean, I don't think it was 16, but it well, yeah, I yeah I know Ram well I also don't do cellular and I'm sure it's the smallest amount of disk space. Yeah. And I get the bigger one. You are big. You love it big. But but it is still sitting in my kitchen. It is my kitchen. YouTube watching iPad. Well, you have to have somewhere to watch YouTube in every room, so get this. So it's been permanently plugged in for many years, probably like 6 or 7 years.

And all of a sudden it started not charging. So even when it needed to so. Well, what I noticed is like it had like 20% battery and I'm like, that's weird. Like then it should have unlimited battery dead. And so I thought, well, the battery's probably dead. There's something that makes sense of really. Oh, iPad. The battery lasts about two minutes by itself, and it's been that way for a long time. So that's obviously completely useless. Like do that with an Apple laptop as well.

Left it, plugged it downstairs in the basement. Oh yeah. I just just like left it down there for two years without touching it. Yeah, it was damn fine. But. And so I, I thought, well, just try it. Let me plug it into a different adapter, plug it into different adapter. Boom. Charged 100% shakalaka. So I took apparently it. What did die is charging Apple charger from eight years ago. Finally gave up its ghost. What do you an apple? I bought a charger, plugged it in, works like a champ.

It's back in the kitchen. But that iPad is big enough that I think it dissipates the heat, so it never d laminated. But I also had an iPad that was not permanently plugged in, and it was my most recent one. I up until the one I bought six months ago. So that the one the D laminated before that was probably a year and a half old, maybe two, probably two, probably two years, by the time the laminated. But that thing I was using all the time, and I was only charging it when I needed to get charged.

It was my, bedroom, my iPad. So that's the one that I would, you know, where you record your own stuff? Stuff? That's, No, that's. Don't do that. No iPad Pro studio for that. Oh, sorry. So that one would have only gotten charged when I was totally empty and then unplugged from charging, and that started laminating. So I don't know, man. I think that there's some quality control issues they've had, but I think all of them are related to heat one way or another.

So whether, you know, because you gotta remember in Texas here, like if I, if I go outside with the iPad because I'm growing or something, well, don't put the iPad on the grill. It's a 118 degrees outside. Then you're going inside and it's 43. Yeah, yeah, pretty much the air conditioning is running at full air conditioning is running at full right now. Dude. Cotton gin is making fun of you for being a person who has an iPad in every room. Yes, multiple iPads in every room.

You have to have a backup. Can I make fun of him for being a person who doesn't have an iPad in every room? Sure. That's okay. That's good. That'd be fair. And, again, thanks to speedy Bubble for the one two, three, four, five, which is like $12, which is like a real boost. We should teach people that. That's the real boost amount. Yeah, but he came in with the second one and said, Bitcoin went down by the way. It's going up. It's going down. It's another 123 4 or 5.

And he says, I'd like to make this post a switcheroo I saw that yeah yeah I got it credit at the CSB. So you'll give him a break about not donating enough next episode? Well, as long as there's people that are donating on behalf of Ksby, I guess that raises his minimum or something that's better than CSB. Yeah. He always wants to, like, be like della. Did you get, like, boost? Just like it's three bucks. It either got here or it did and you're making me spend too much time.

Yeah. And then he's like, you've got to read my thing. And I'm like, no, there's no guarantees. This is how Membros get rid of CSB too. It was like, it's nice that you want to donate and we appreciate it. But it doesn't guarantee your notes are going to get read well of my notes not to get there. I will not get well and that's fair. I mean that's I don't just mean same thing I'm like like if, if you don't feel like you're happy don't don't right.

You know I mean I, I've never done I there definitely it's not true. I did actually once I think I said a donation for one of your, your dumb show, random thoughts and, that's free, you know, which I let it, I let the, I, program this latest episode. Okay, interesting. And the interesting thing was it gave me four topics, all which were probably the main topics that have been discussed over 300. This about episodes. So it was like one, it's not good.

It's coming up with something unique, but it's very good. What is not creative? What is this? I can't do? Saying that you will notice that with all it's like it's good at taking a bunch of data and finding patterns and finding things like that one. There was a big it was a should be a, grumpy old Ben's episode. Bad browse. What do you got time. The I, I created work no matter how long your prompt is.

The courts as of now in the United States have ruled there is never any copyright protection work on AI generated art. That was, in a way, because your prompt is literally a record of you reading off the menu. But here's the other thing. And I find this to be funny. I haven't seen this discussed anywhere, but I haven't looked, far and wide into the discussions on this. Yeah. The text that you come up with for the prompt is copyrightable, but the image itself that it will create is not

so. Yes and no. I mean, strictly speaking, yes, the image is not copyrightable.

However, any change you make, the image to make it unique, makes it copyrightable. That's very easy. Just open up in Photoshop, press a button and you're done. Well, here's my other question and I didn't finish with the text portion. You're okay. Text your your text is not copyrightable. If it doesn't include a, anything unique.

And what I mean by that is if you're if your text is simply like, for example, draw Donald Trump, like, you can't copyright those several words and then have an enforceable copyright on that. Right? There is a certain amount. But if you come up with a paragraph describing something that's copyrightable. Because anything you write beyond the title, I mean, you could write a poem that could be Draw Donald Trump. He's so hot, orange mad love come back for more. That's copyrightable. That's idiotic.

That's copyrightable. It's I yeah. I don't think it's strictly copyrightable. I the idea that you can see this is it depends is the answer, which is where the courts love it. Yeah. Well, this it is what it is. Because. Because not everything you write is copyrightable, and not even everything long you write is copyrightable. There there are.

There have been plenty over the, the course of the copyright laws in this country, plenty of instances of copyrights being denied for various reasons, and one of which is, you know, if you copyright something that a whole bunch of people all came up with, it's not a unique enough thing to copyright. And so. There's, like, titles is a good example, right? Why are titles not capital readable? It's literally for that reason because, well, they're too short. A lot of no, they don't have to be.

You can have a title that's 25 words overall. I mean, so somebody writes a song called Born to Run. Yeah. And you can't be like, what? No song can ever be called this. Yeah. You can't be using the same title, even though it's totally different. It's like, that just doesn't do it. Now. It can be confusing because every now with that, I've pulled up a track that I thought was something totally else. Something else. Because. Right. Same title year, movies, books and all have the same names.

Yes, to be very careful, before you place that order at Alibaba, you might be getting something completely different. Yeah, well and weird, I, I've been advocating for this for many years that we really need to have an update to the U.S. trademark Office and copyright system, because they're both based on really 1800s, mentalities. Well, that's where my question would be now with the technology that we have.

Yeah. How do you prove that in the image was created by AI and not by another one of these digital? Yeah. You can't create. There's literally no way to do it with means. You can say that something created by an AI can't be copyrighted, but how do you know it's going to be the same for images? Yeah, you the same for text. Yeah. You really don't know.

And all the people that claim to be able to, you know, well, I've got a tool that tells me if something was written by you, I have no do you Grammarly does that. You know, I know you hate Premier League because they're a bunch of Ukrainian, Ukrainian Nazis or something like that. Allegedly. Just saying this is common. They do not take it seriously. Yeah, kick me off YouTube pretty late. Too late. Got. But yeah that's part of their system now is show. Just stop uploading to YouTube.

Well no, it's still, as I noticed the other day, on my, YouTube in the Roku, the YouTube yeah, yeah app that it was recommending unrelenting to me. Nice I like fucking hey I like that show. I'm like I'm surprised it's still there because it was one of them that we talked about things that we were like wow YouTube is not going to like that. It's surprising. Yeah nothing like this.

But this is going to be the next thing that which will be somebody will copyright something and people will be like no, no, no. That's a yeah. The person would be like, no. And then Amazon did a patent for a one click button, right? Oh yeah. And people were like, fuck you. That is just the which was clearly done by others before when there was going to be the natural progression of things.

So you can't give a patent to something that's like, hey, this guy, we're going to make it a button rather than a, switch. Oh yeah. Totally different though. But how you're going to be able to prove whether things are I can just imagine somebody creating this fantastical image with Illustrator or Photoshop or whatever tool they like and then being denied the copyright like, no, that's I like, fuck you, that's not I, I created that. Yep. Like, how are you going to know?

And oh the prices went up to I think it's 29 bucks a month for Adobe's teacher in student edition that well, thank God. I mean, it's amazing how they've been just giving it away for free for so many years. I know why this went to be an H and bought another year for 240. And I think they go on sale at like Black Friday. But that's not what I normally do, so I always forget it. Yeah. So something reminds me I do every fucking year I remind you.

But never the ten. You're like, oh, I have mine, right? But never for the year. You give me the one for the normal one, which is cheaper than I pay. I need the student one. Yeah, because I'm a teacher, I think. Well, the thing that they really clearly don't bother tracking is if you're actually a student, their teacher, because if they did, well, they do because I just I don't think they do.

I'm using an account that is a teacher's account that's a friend of ours that doesn't care about Adobe just said, okay, here. Oh, so you're buying it in her name. You're like, ask her to buy it. Yes. So yeah, well that's different. I thought you just were pretending to be a student, which now most people do, which I sure is, because I have a student of this. And here's what's so stupid is, or not, it's it's stupid for me is I never bothered keeping my college email. Right.

And that that's the main method that they've used. Yeah. Oh, you have an Edu and some of these colleges are like, give us $5 a year and you can keep your. Yeah, exactly. It's like, yes or no. You can keep your college student email. I'm like, fuck yeah, I should have done that. But I didn't. That way you can pick up on all the college girls. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. And then they meet you and they're like, oh, you like some of these damn. Maybe a professor.

Geez, I guess I yeah, I at this point I use somebody grant that right is great. Grant great great great grandad for my birthday coming up in April. Lady Vox promised me a happy double Nicole birthday. I mean I guess it was spellcheck from double nickel. But I'm like a double Nicole birthday. Sounds like a lot of fun. You getting one of them double nickels? Yes, yes. Not just one Nicole, but two. Wow. I mean, I always thought that was one of the wildest sex acts out there, so that's pretty good.

Now, the US twins, I mean, can you imagine parents having twins? And they think that both the same thing. That would just be mean. I mean, it's easier. You be easy to remember. Yeah. For sure. Like I I'm Nicole, this is my sister Nicole getting like that Darryl Darryl thing. Yeah. My other brother Darryl. Right. It all comes around him. That was a great show, man. Newhart. Oh, yeah. You had to have.

You had to have the mental age of a 50 year old back in the day to really appreciate the humor on that show, but it was a great show. Well, Bob Newhart was a master with timing. Yeah, with the kind of humor that it does take a second for some people to get. Yeah, very, very good. I mean, it's an excellent show if you can find it kind of like Miami Vice. It might be harder to find, though. Yeah. After we actually have to credit Ksbw with a $12 donation. This is probably a real donation.

Yeah, I know, it's like, wow. Over $3. Whew. Like come on CSB. Do you like CSB and do you want to I know how are you. So he donated 12 bucks after saying he's done donating. No speedy bubble donated the resources for these bubbles. Donation. We have to crack RSV right in the name of course. Yeah yeah yeah. So if you want to donate in the name of CSB or anybody else, just go. Yeah, at least $4. That's all you got to do into a podcasting 2.0 app.

Find the unrelenting. It's not hard and boost boost big boost now I dare you. Nobody ever boost nobody spell it. Nobody streams. There's the planet rage. We always have people streaming the show. It's been over three weeks and anybody has streams. Satoshi is too unrelenting. I never understood that concept. You know, I thought honestly, well, where it doesn't work is when there's a lot of splits because the person at the end of the splits usually gets zero because it's doing this.

And this is I know, one of the things you and I talked about early on was the concept of somebody streaming, you know, say ten Satoshis a minute. Well, when this is split using 100% and somebody is, say, getting 5%, right, well, that's under a Satoshi. That's going to go to that person, which means they going to get zero because there is no way to do partial Satoshi's. So the reality was the best thing any of these things could have done.

These apps that are allowing for these streaming satoshis wait until it hits a minimum. That was my suggestion from like literally from the creation of the system. Yes. When you deal with a thousand, right. Yeah, you need to aggregate. And Adam was adamant that he wanted instant instant transfers. That's what makes it cool and unique. Well, that works well if there's 1 or 2 people that are in the split or it works fine if people are doing it. And I said, well, that good, I suggested this.

I say, make the minimum 100 per minute, that yeah, if you do 100 per minute, then your smallest unit is 1%. Yes. That works out. Yeah. But if you make your minimum nothing right, fine. Somebody sends ten and you have a number of people that are all set up for 1%. It at least back then, I don't know what it's doing now, but back then each of those one percenters would actually get 10%, and then the actual post gets 70% instead of 97%.

I was like, hold up here because it I again, I have no idea what's currently doing. I haven't looked, but it used to be that it was round up, not down, and contingent says you could do fractions of satoshis. Is that true? He also just a sentence he used to be able to. He also just said to the 3333 with the eyeball emoji. So thank you for the boost. What's that mean? I don't know, just eyeballs like it's looking. But it was $3 and SATs.

So I mean that's that was like CSB but better because we didn't have to read a lot. I mean, on the behalf of cotton gin. Yes. The raise is donation to the minimum $12. Feel free to do that. Yeah. So we just come in and help cotton gin out. CSB you want to jump in. Yes. Yes. Come on buddy jump on in. We know you're listening. He's like I like listening to you I take him see he says he naps during the show. So maybe it is your voice. My soothing voice I I'm telling you it is weird.

There's a couple of things. And don't get me wrong, I enjoy conference. I'm not one of these people that doesn't like components. No, I think the thing that we talked about earlier, however, it is weird at just the number of people that are telling me they they think I have like the best voice in, in this particular game, YouTube. Like really like because I don't think my voice is all like great. Well, I would agree. I mean, I'm with you. There you go, there you go.

You know, like, nope, nope, not the best at all. No, probably not even the I mean, better than I was. I mean, we'll give you that. That's not hard. Yeah. Bummer. I was like I would there's like, he like, rolls is a chair over the cat and the cat screeches. I just think you say something I don't know. Yeah. This is how you take his cat along with him on his drives every day. Just one of them. I mean, that way, you know, mice of the truck. All right. Nice, though.

Saw blade sound better than barbaro's. And that is according to Sir Ben Rhodes. Wow. That's that's, low blow there. Yeah. Get into the troll room at no agenda that stream, and then you can insult yourself. Yeah, or somebody else. It all depends what you're into. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then Gina. Gina is a three on a ten scale. Says that as far as your voice being Sue. So, that that's def so that makes total sense. He's from Detroit. It's all that bullets flying around or something. Could be.

Could be the water too. Oh, he's like, we're talking about Gene's voice. I'm sorry. He just thought she was a three. I thought we were back to rating photos. Dude, with my beard. I'm way more in the three. Lucy can't include the beard. That's like including an attitude. No, that's including hair. Hair is always included. Hair is always a part of the deal. Yeah. What about the lack thereof? Yeah, that's part of the deal, too. I mean, there's not many chicks they can pull off bald.

But remember that chick from Star Trek? That movie chick from Star Trek? That chick from Star Trek the movie? The movie. The original was bald. No, the original movie from 1980s. They had a bald alien chick on there. She could pull it off. I seriously don't remember that. For guys, it's not the beard, it's the bank. That's true for so many women. That's what all the guys without beards say. No. I don't remember the original Star Trek movie. Yeah. Look up Star Trek the movie. Star Trek movie.

Have you found the Miami Vice ship? I haven't started looking yet because I'm still in the middle of watching Mindy. I'm, you know, watching at the same time as, Oh. You're watching Wimbledon. So it's like a little, everything's, Yeah. Yeah, it well, it basically is super gay because, you know, we're both watching the episodes. Then I'm usually a few episodes ahead. I'm like, oh, you're gonna like this one. And he's like, very.

Yeah. So, the best I direct the movie, go to images, and she's the bald chick. She's the bald chick. As opposed to, she's the only bald chick. Now let's see Star Trek just. Okay, there's the TV. You literally can type in bald chick and it'll. It'll show you the chick from Star Trek. Hey, why would I go to IMDb and type in Star Trek that it doesn't even. I don't know why you would go to IMDb here. I'll sit you. So it's Star Trek The Motion Picture.

Oh, instead of the movie? I thought it was the movie. Okay, it's a Star Trek the Motion. Sure. Oh, yeah. There's the ball chick. Yeah, I don't remember that. Really? No, you. She was Voyager. She was the, the chick that came out of Voyager. Do not recall. Okay. I mean, I'm assuming I saw this at some point, but, I mean, I guess it's possible I never did. Yeah. I mean, I remember seeing, The Wrath of God, which was the second one. Right?

Maybe I never saw the original, but, I mean, it was back in the day before that we had, you know, video and it showed up on TV and, So possible. Maybe we need to do a rewatch of the Star Trek. Star Trek the movie. Yeah. Tom ski says, I don't recall her either. Not worthy. You gotta be kidding me. Really? That really says what you did that came out 80, 79, 1979. I was nine. Okay. Niner okay. Minor. You were 49 or niner. Yes. You were 46 at the time.

Something like that. Yeah. Niner 79, which was two years after Star Wars, which I certainly saw. Right. Star Trek obviously wasn't the big draw. No, it was rated G2. So it was definitely going for like, on the heels of Star Wars. Yeah, yeah. With Star Wars G. Yeah. Oh so the original wasn't it? Yeah. Valens sets it all these, space things have. Yeah. That's why they're OPG. I don't think there is a G. The first, Star Trek is. Well, I mean, it also what I type in Star Wars.

Yeah. Okay, here's a new hope. It's like it only shows very few things. That's weird. It was PG, star Wars was PG. So I thought an 8.6 star rating on IMDb. Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker Harrison Ford as Han Solo Carrie Fisher is Princess Leia Organa such a porn name, Princess Leia or Leia Organa or gonna. Sounds a lot like our guys Mar, and Leia sounds a lot like Layla's, like, lay out, right? You want a Leia of good. Yeah. Did you ever watch, Lucas in love? No. Or George Lucas love?

I don't think so. It it was hilarious. It's, it's basically a parody movie from, I think, 2000. It's a short 1999. It's. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, it's a short eight minutes long, but really, I thought it was like 30 minutes, but it it essentially is based on, Shakespeare in Love, the movie. Did you see that? So Shakespeare in Love heard about probably before George Lucas in love, I would assume otherwise. The other one was like ripping this up.

Yeah, totally. But Shakespeare in Love was basically shot from a perspective of, you know, Shakespeare or a person living in that time to where all of Shakespeare's stories are really just shit that he's telling from his actual life. So, like, he wasn't super creative, he just wrote down shit that happened to him. And so they sort of did do as of it. Yes. But you kind of. Yeah. That looks a little. Yeah. Yeah, that's the idea.

Was that all the characters in Shakespeare were literally people that were friends of his, or people he hated and had, you know, bad relationship with whatever. So they took the same idea for George Lucas in love and, oh, it's got 7.6 on the IMDb for an eight minute short. It's amazing. Yeah, there's a preview which is like eight minutes long, so I'm guessing zactly it's a whole damn thing.

Yeah. So they they basically did the same thing for Lucas to where, you know, Leia was this girlfriend that he was trying to bang. And obviously he's Luke, of course, but this girl would, like, treat him like he was a friend or a brother and not like a love interest, because she had this other guy who was very cool.

It was like the Han Solo character, you know, so just deconstructs the original Star Wars into the way that a college student would write about his personal life and the relationship. And I guess that's the other bit, is it? It's not just, yes, all authors take bits from their lives, but in this case, this is like, you know, young George Lucas, a young William Shakespeare, so that when you watch Star Wars as a kid. Yeah. Did you want to be Luke or did you want to be Han?

Where did you find that? Basically. Oh, yeah. Way more fun, right? I always shoot first the that's that's why you're also not married. I used to be that was that they found out that you always shoot first, but. That's right. Nope. Nope. Just like Greedo, they are gone. Really? Luke just always seemed like, boring. You know, just a moron or a dick, depending on which period of, movies you're in. And now we know in real life he has all of those things.

He is all of those things. Literally. Exactly. They were he was not much of a stretch for him to play like, no, I'm still a much better character. Yeah. Who wouldn't want to hang out with Chewie? I wouldn't, you know how bad that thing smells? That thing. I mean, Chewie can take a shower as he ever. No, I, I don't. Is this what you were hoping for? Know for a fact that she's never taking a shower. Seems like if only they would show the Wookie in the shower. That's all I need.

Now I know exactly what that looks like. Yeah, I know you. Get out of the shower. Do you see the beer? You're like, oh, I've got more hair than Chewbacca. I get unclog the drain again. Yeah. That's true. You'd have to have those the little things that keep the hair out of the drains. I mean, you're just like, we need to shower up. Do you take, like, a big shower cap and you stuff the beard into that? How do you. Oh, as we go about the whole mess, you watch the beard.

You know, this is the funny thing is, like, all the shit that women due to their hair. I don't understand that. I've never understood it because I do nothing special to the beard at all. And. And I compliment, especially from black women on the beard. You get a lot of compliments. Where are you when you normally get the compliments? At the burger joint, at the barbecue place while wearing your BLM? Sometimes, yeah. Yes, it is like, oh, I love your beard. You know what it's like, lady?

Is that oh, okay. That's you. That would be a video I would watch on YouTube. I like your beard. Thank you. Black woman. Be like, what? What do you see? Yeah. These are the kind of videos you need. Just. That's like the hell. And. And half the time, not all the time, but half the time. After saying something like that, they're like, did I touch it? And you're like, did I touch? They, reminds me of the video. There was a a black midget little person.

What do they like to be called now? I want to be very, very on Offensive Dwarf. They like to be called dwarf. A black dwarf who was like, I lost my dog. I lost my dog in this, you know, normal sized white dude. Yeah, maybe. Do you like, like, oh, what's what's wrong? There's, like, I lost my dog. Can you help me find it? The guy's like, sure. What's its name? The name was Edward. Of course. Okay, okay. I'm like that. This is comedy.

We should be able to joke about such things, not be like, oh, now, if you utter that wrong word, you're gonna be canceled. You think cancel culture seems to be going away? Yeah, yeah, we'll see if it does. Thank you. Donald Trump. He wants to make Gaza into a resort. This guy is a freaking genius. Genius. I tell you, people don't understand how he does his negotiating because he doesn't really want to do that.

But I think he's hoping that, Saudi Arabia or somebody like that goes, oh, shit, that's a great idea. We could build a resort here. Yeah. I think, if he pulls that off, man, that'll be awesome. Because he's he's using something that's never been used in thousands of years, which is money. Yeah, it's it's sort of like, well, we have the wrong people on the wrong piece of land here. Well, he says we could bring them all back once it is.

It because they could be the that we're not going to bring him back no money because the poor boys that we need a boy is he employees, you know, for the casino. They're gonna leave somebody. They're gonna live in Egypt and then go work in the resorts. They're not going to live in the fucking resorts. No, they're going to have a camp right outside the resort. It should be like Disney World we ever see. Like the accommodations for the people underground.

They're going to live underground. Probably employees. Yeah. Like, get, like a little mini. What do you call these cubicle things that you can go rent now in some of these countries like. Well you can come and you could work as the BSU student come work, you can do people's nails. You can probably do, sexual activities. But no, no, no, you'll get paid. Well, you'll get paid better than you are now. And guess what? Shit won't blow up. That would be the biggest draw for living there.

Shit will not blow up because you'll have somebody in charge that if the terrorists want to fuck with them, will be like, nope. I also like Donald Trump's. I've left very specific instructions. If Iran assassinates me, they're fucking gone. I think that's just fantastic. Well, it's it's I mean, there's no downside to saying that, is there? No, because if it doesn't happen, yeah, you're not dead.

Yeah. And if it does happen, then it gives JD Vance the job of pressing that button and going, yeah, let's just bomb the hell out of Iran. So it's not even there anymore. Yeah. It really who's going to back the play of Iran? I think even at that point, Russia is like, how about you know, I know their buddies. I think China's like, do we care about Iran that much? No, no, no, Iran is convenient for Russia, but it there's no great low loss there if nothing changes.

No, it's, You know, Iran is kind of, it's the same thing as Ukraine, frankly. It's a lever. It's a way to poke at the other guys without poking at them with your own stick. Is poking them with somebody else's stick. Hey, it's always better if you can poke at somebody else's stick way less be the same exact thing. So double right. And I would think the Iranians know this as well. Is that as long as there's no actual direct U.S war with Iran, Russia's their buddy, and China and everybody else.

But if the US decides to officially be in the war with Iran, I don't think anyone's coming to their aid. No, it's I mean, they're their friends. They'll be buying, they'll be sold or, you know, effectively sold. They'll be provided weapons from China, from Russia, from all the other countries that are friendly with them today. But none of those countries are gonna, on their behalf, declare war. No, it doesn't make sense. You would. You don't want to do that. You want to just.

But again, it's literally the same thing that the US is doing from the other side

because the US and European countries are sending tons of weapons that are used in, Ukraine and, and notice I didn't say by Ukraine because half the people in Ukraine are not Ukrainians, they're imports from other countries, but they're used to fight Russia. But no one has declared war on Russia in support of Ukraine. They're just sending shit to Ukraine. And this is good for business. Well, yeah, it's good for a lot of things. But I think this is how a US war with Iran would also turn out.

So the one thing that that the US can't assume is that, Iran's on its own, because what will happen in Iran is exactly what's happening with Ukraine, which is they will have more weapons. Do they know what to do with they'll never run out of ammo like that. They're not going to be like going into Iraq because nobody was on the right side. No one gave a shit about Iraq. Iraq was a friend of the US during the Iran-Iraq war. So we supplied Iraq with whatever they had.

And then when we, for whatever reason, didn't like when they did, frankly, a perfectly legitimate thing in going into Kuwait, who is dribbling diagonally underneath the border into Iraqi oil fields, that was like that was the the right kind of response, far as I'm concerned. But at that point in time, we were friendlier with Kuwait than we were with Iraq, and therefore we ended up going in, into Iraq and then blaming Iraq for really what Saudi Arabia did in taking out the buildings.

I did like the meme of Zelensky asking for 20 billion to help find where the 100 billion they got all right, went right. Yes. That's great. Yes, he'll get it too. That's the sad part. Well, this is where we need Elon. And it's interesting because people are so spun up to use the Adam couriers of about Elon. And it's true he was not elected, but he is an advisor to the president. So you don't need to be a whole the whole idea of people saying, well, he wasn't elected shows their stupidity.

Yeah. That's the only thing it shows because guess what, 99.99% of people that get checks from the US government were not elected. And it was like Elon's getting the check. So that's even better. He's working free. He's not working for free. I guarantee you that he's getting business deals. He's probably getting 5% of any money he recovers. So this is like the best way to go about it. So he's like the, collector, you know, the, yeah.

That likes bothers you when you're like, hey, man, you owe unrelenting $100. If you don't get any of that, we'll give you a 50%. They're like, okay, that sounds like a good deal. We'll go collect your money for you if you're listening right now, you do a want to relenting some funds. So booty but Elon you don't have to be elected. Would you. We've got a message from comic strip blogger here. Here. Oh, but not a boost because he's got to read that

because he's a cheap son of a bitch. Darren can go fuck himself. Yeah, no more donations from me to any of his podcast where he doesn't want to read messages or grams and rejects five grams. Yes, that's all. After I promoted the hell out of his podcast and grams, the podcast of Adam Curry, I also paid the first six months of his jet GPT plus subscription. He's ungrateful. So it's over. And he used it because he wanted the American, access to ChatGPT I said was there are no guarantees at life.

CSB I was trying to teach you a very important lesson. As the reads get longer and longer and the just kind of was like, dude, right now, what year was it the other day where he's like, I will wait until the show begins. And I'm like, dude, right now I'm in helipad. Thank you, Eric P, for doing the helipad updates where you can separate the shows and all that. But I'm like, I'm in helipad right now. Yeah, I am taking all of the boats and I am cutting and pasting them into the shows notes.

Anything that comes in during the show isn't guaranteed to be read. Well, and I will not do that. Well, then fucking don't stand there. Then don't care. I'm like, do it. Why? You want to inconvenience me? Be like, I'm going to wait till the show begins. Fuck you and your little fucking retarded things that you need to have happen before you do something. The world does not work that way. So my take and donations way before this podcast just for anything. You never wanted this.

You've got so much money you were afraid your tax was going to go on to the next.

That's not it. That's definitely not it. But, dude, I'm for struggling person here. Come on. I'm I'm trying to, you know, survive and, Trump's economy. And I can't believe we don't have, like, dollar gasoline. Yep. I know we should be down to at least $0.49. Something like that. Exactly. Anyway, my my point has always been this. Anybody that makes a donation is donating for what they have already received, which is if they enjoyed the show. That's how I treat it when I make donations.

Yeah, if I like somebody on YouTube and I think they're hilarious, or they give me some useful info on how to beat a video game, I will make a donation to them. And that is my voluntary contribution for something that I've already received, right? Yes. And so I'm looking to get Adam set a bad precedent by turning donations into ad buys, by letting people effectively send money in, not for what they've received.

So I'm pointing the finger at Adam here, but, for sending money in in order to get an ad read. Now, you don't have to call him. AD reads. You can, donation reads, but much like NPR, the reality is that plenty of people have promoted their businesses and knowledge and their with donations, me included on multiple occasions when we did Kickstarter. Jean when? No, no no, when we did Kickstarters.

You know, for the what like a decade ago, we did a special deal where we had a no agenda version of the wall with some 30 threes on it. And, all the money that came out of those versions of the wall and the Kickstarter were sent in to, no agenda. And it was done on a as people are committing, not when we received the money because we were using that to promote the wall as well as like, hey, there's now, here's $200, no agenda. And they'll talk about the wallet, it being in Kickstarter phase.

And, we need more money because the more people get the wall, the more money we donate the dungeon. Like I, I get that the people that, listen to this show live, thank all of you, including, I'm guessing cotton gin could be wrong. Just came in with 2222 as definitely CSB. Oh, so CSB made another. Yeah. 2222. Definitely CSB it's from it says so. Okay. Cool. Thank you. So there you go. There you go. You just gotta thank CSB. Every time somebody donates in the CSV name. That's good right.

Member says I see comic strip blogger has swung his perpetual feud back over to Derek. Yeah I mean it goes for me. But the game sometimes it's membros sometimes, you know, it all depends. There's always a feud going on. Yeah, it's always just a big misunderstanding. It's a love fest. Is that what it is? Yeah. We love CSB. He brings so much joy to the world. Yeah. I think it's your fault for this show. Because what you failed to do as you're the one that called him a racist.

He is racist and he hates me saying that. So here's the bit he doesn't understand. Most of my friends I call racist. Okay, so I somebody's a racist is not the insult that he thinks it is. It is a you're a motherfucker. It's also not an insult if I say that to a friend. True if I say that, oh, that random person on the streets, obviously a racist or a motherfucker, that's that's different, right? That's an actual insult. But people that I consider friends because I've done them forever.

And amazingly, CSB falls into that category. That's not a fucking insult, dude. But I'm not going to take it back because I say that to my friends. And I mean that you are a fucking racist. And so is there. And and so am I. And so is, my other co-host dude named Ben. Like, all fucking racists. There's proof of it. So anyway, I think it's funny pointing out, though, the co-hosts are not friends. But it goes back. I've mentioned it before. The guy worked for yo.

I just got a message from Cosby saying, no, people are faking me. I didn't actually make a donation. No, it says definitely CSP. Okay. When? So wait, wait, do you think he's listening? Of course. The, What? My my buddy that owned the carpet store and his buddy Dave would come in. Dave, you had trouble hearing, and he was Jewish. So when he would walk into the store, Mike would be like, hey, that's dude. And he would look at Mike and be like, fuck you, fatty. And that was, that was hello?

He was still breathing. Yes, exactly. You know what's up? Come on. CSB, you got to understand, you got to let that into your life. Oh yeah. Yeah. And I just I just sent a dude named Ben a little video from.

I don't know if you follow me at all, but there's a fighter that recently did his first podcast episode in which this is an MMA fighter.

Dude, I can't remember his name, but in that episode, there's some tough mofos talked about how Hitler gets a bad rap and that really, Hitler was a good dude and he'd love to go fishing with them and, because all Hitler really wanted and how other people not understand this is just to get his country cleaned out and purify it and get all the stinking Jews out of it. Okay, so I mean, I'm just typing literally, Hitler. We have a title for the show. Fishing with Hitler is a good title.

Yeah. This guy literally on his first episode says this. And then Dana White's been, you know, reporters like, I mean, what are you going to do? You can fire what's going on with this guy. Then it's like, okay, first of all, this guy's a moron. Everybody knows he's a moron. He's proved that he's a moron. But I'm not going to fire him because I don't employ him to write for me. I employ him to fight. And I suspect the list of fighters that want to fight him now is going to get much longer.

Yeah, and he's absolutely right. And it's like, yeah, there's a there are actions that people can take which will result in maybe unintended consequences for that person. Yeah. Bill O'Reilly had a clip of AOC yesterday talking about how what Trump wants to do in Gaza is genocide. And Bill O'Reilly, after the little sound drop, was like, this woman is a moron. She's always this woman says that Elon Musk is one of the stupidest people she knows. Yeah. Is that you? Look at her.

And you're like, barista in the city, gets gets to go to Washington. It's hilarious. The only thing that I will say that I liked about her, is that she seems to have not benefited from all the insider trading that literally everybody on both sides of the aisle does. Yeah. Which is one of the things they really need to clean up.

Yeah. And that's one of her topics that she is trying to push through, is to put a bill in to prevent anybody in Congress from doing any trades, including through third parties like family members. Well, like she's part. How do you again, this if you want to run for office, you have to sign a contract with all your family members saying they need to say will not try. And if you can't get that signature, you know, guess what?

You don't get to run yet another 3333 just come in from am not fake CSB says love unrelenting show and Darren shouty voice in Russia. Gene that sounds like CSB. I haven't mentioned Russia the entire show and I'm somehow the Russian though. Okay, well, I'm not going to be the Russian shill. Yeah, that that's an insult. Don't be calling me a Russian. So that's an insult. You take that back, you officially send another donation. And right now and you take that back. No one is afraid of Russians.

Apparently, it's the way it works. Unless you're Vladimir Putin, bill O'Reilly's new book, coming out in September, is confronting Evil, and Putin is on the cover with Chief in Hitler and somebody else I can't remember right now. Well, that loses all credibility for ORiley with this. You don't believe that to steal too much of a pussy to put a bomb on there? Really? You think he likes Barack because he did interviews with. Oh my God, yeah. Okay, well, there you go.

That proves that he probably likes Taylor Swift. Well, he of course, because she was nice to his daughter. Oh, you mean like, he actually does? Like, there's this young white girl who took the daughter ten minutes to say she's like, oh, that was like ten years ago. Oh, my God. Was very kind to his daughter. Although he also liked, I always knew that he was actually a left wing guy. That's pretty obvious because, he he's annoying and shouty and you obviate.

And he's very good friends with John Stuart, a known socialist that should have been kicked out of the country long time ago. And Donald Trump, though known Donald Trump for 35 years. Yes. Likes Donald Trump. Yeah. No. Well, that's not good. He does. He likes Trump. But is he like what Donald Trump is doing now. Yes. Oh he thought Biden. He he says Biden was the second worst president in the history of the country.

Who is he think the first is, because was Buchanan the one that did nothing when the Civil War broke out? Because of you? Him that was that.

That was the only one that he will rate as lower. And then I think I think Biden is the worst in my opinion. Jimmy Carter is the second worst. And partly because I've lived through both of those days. But, so there's a bias there for sure. But then probably Lincoln would be third, for did they, Ben Lincoln? It's always first. VS is number one. Yeah. Like this is number one the worst president. That's an interesting choice. Not really I mean he basically disregarded the Constitution.

Obviously he's a racist, but he yeah, I think he was a racist. But thanks. Not CSB for, not sexiest because that means it's real CSB right? If somebody does, it says not speak CSV. CSV must be real. CSB there's no way to confirm who the donations are actually coming from. That mechanism doesn't exist. So you got to go by whatever names on there. Yeah. That's all we can do. If everybody wants to donate as CSB that we have to keep attributing to CSB. So like Spartacus, I am CSB, though I am a CSB.

Yeah, just like Spartacus was a great movie or a great TV show, by the way. Except the movie was very good. Like spacious. Good. Yeah. No, Spartacus, was on Showtime or Movie Channel or one. The pornographic one. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was really good. The one with Lucy Lawless. Yeah. Well, Lucy. Yeah. I mean, I can see why you'd like that. I've always liked Lucy. I mean, she's a bit of a tomboy, but, But she's got the attitude, right? She's got the attitude.

But Lucy is like a solid seven in terms of visual black. She could beat both of us up. So, I mean, there's also that she really can't. She's not that very tall man. They they had a very short girl playing the role of her friend and that's, you know, what's her name? O'Connor. Her last name was O'Connor was her first name. I never watch Xena the Warrior Princess. Clearly not a real lesbian. Them? No. When did I claim to be. You always claim to have been a lesbian. I was, I was a young lesbian.

That was the way it's worked out. If you were a real lesbian, you'd be watching Xena. And as you know, she's. Lucy's had two different ex-husbands or. No. Is one current? Yeah. One still current? Yeah. They don't really care. That's a chick thing to worry about. Chick thing? She's a 56 years old. Yeah, yeah. Your age older. Yeah. They're like way older. Slightly. I'm not even 55, man. I mean yeah. So basically you're. Yeah until April.

So that's what you do in a big, big, big push to boost big blowout a big blowout is the the double Nicole birthday double make I get depicted Nicole's so I actually I get an ex since you don't read ex that we need to get rid of Penny's and Nicole. While I do want to say that Lucy Lawless. Yeah. According to the bio, say she's between 510 and 511. She's that. I mean, I've never met her, so I can't say, but I'm just saying. The bio says that she's, like, an inch taller than me. Dude.

One says five, nine and a quarter, so I mean, and you're what, five for three? If I for three and a half, according to dude named Ben. Yes. I'm five foot two. He's like, just put on a Stetson hat and some cowboy. Hilarious. Because if you like how boy boots, right? All the time. And he somehow takes into like his added two inches into his head all time, it's like, we told you, it's like, no, dude, I'm wearing flip flops, you're in cowboy boots and you're barely told me.

I want to point out the subterfuge going on right now, fella, versus this direct message. CSB the memo says, do a podcast with Gene. He's trying. He's trying to steal my co-host. Oh my God. Wow. CSB he's going to war. He's going to war full time. Oh yeah. Here's CSB. Would you support that fucking show or would you be a fucking douchebag and not support the show? If Gene and Membros do a show, how much you throwing in CSB? It can't be your little typical $3. Can you come in with 25?

They'll do a show. Come in right now. We've done a few episodes and he wants more because both of you have such just beautiful voices. That's true. But we have voices that you can hear that are perfectly listenable and stuff. Oh of course, yeah,

that's what we go for in this number of voices. We have perfectly listenable voices. I think that's a high standard right there, I think. I don't think there's a higher standard to be has it perfectly listenable. I'm like would you choose to listen to this voice. It's perfectly listenable. It's like going to the dentist I'm going to send you a picture Lucy here. Was it the first topless one or the second topless. All of them.

She's got a whole folder of Lucy Lawless naked two doesn't I mean, my my new computer. I'm missing so many things. Oh. You do? You never moved over the porn. This is what? The dance I've got. This is it. I've also got two. And I think this may be one of the problems where the audio was dropping out in mics. Although I got rid of mics entirely, I reinstalled it good.

I mean, some of the adjusting on the settings to see if it'll get any better, but I have from my windows machine way too many external drives, and I don't access them all the time, but they're all plugged into USB. And of course, this is probably slowing down the system because it always wants to have everything active. So I just need a better way of, cycling through them.

Or what I need to do is take all of the external drives down and connect them to a USB hub, and then connect it to one of the nav systems. So that way it's all available, but it's over the network rather than trying to grab it locally because I think the Macs more than windows for some reason, when you have an external drive connected directly and it's not a super fast drive, if it's an old magnetic drive, yeah, it goes through. I don't like this. I don't know what you mean by that.

It just slows down in the little Beachball comes up while it's trying to read what it wants to read. But this was the first time I shouldn't be doing that. I mean, I've had Macs for fucking 40 years and then that not be there. Do you have like ten external drives hooked up to one Mac at one time? I've had four external drives hooked up to a mac Gibson, almost enough like I've never.

I've never had a beachball unless it's trying to do, like if I do a search or something and it's searching, it might pop that up. And that may be the other thing too. I may need to disconnect the indexing in case it's starting to try to index shit. Oh yeah. Yeah, always turn off indexing. There's no reason to have indexing whatsoever to just scan where is there a there has to be an easy setting in there. So just get rid of the spotlight indexing bullshit. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Because otherwise it's just like you do the slow you down, I get rid of that shit on both Windows and Mac. It's unnecessary. It's unnecessary roughness. There is no for people that are going to be out of the stream. There is no podcasting 2.0 today. So there is no hot namespace talk or anything going on. Which means there's nothing for you to boost USB. Why are you even listening to the show? Well, you didn't say it doesn't like the show. He just says that you're an asshole.

Well, this is this is different. There's not even a question about that. That's like being the sky is blue water is wet, Ambrose is cranky. All these things are always true. Memories. The other day I was writing a said I put something in the troll room and Ben Rhodes was like, I can't argue that. And I'm like, I bet you could. Members can always argue, yeah. No I yes, he could. But the and I remember the first time I had him on swearing speaks. Well that was such a great show.

I still go back 4.5 hours. Yeah, for a half hour. I mean, I'd listen to it 8.75 speed to just to really be able to enjoy it. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah it was. I thought it went pretty good. And the thing is, almost every topic we talked about, I'm sure there's a couple that weren't, but almost every topic, including, you know, the great oxygen die off of the planet Earth. We agreed on. And it was like people were disappointed because they kept winning for more shit that we would disagree on.

But realistically, I think Membros in general has the right idea. The problem is, I think, is expression of those ideas. They tend to great people the wrong way. Is this the way you're going to launch your brand new podcast? Ryan and Gene are fake and gay, available soon. They can gay on podcasting 2.0 platforms. People would listen to that. Do you think it's ESB? If you don't boost the show within the next three minutes? I'm never letting you boost any other show that I ever do. That's over.

Oh my dad. Yeah, I can let them Boof. We are drawing the line. That's like the most extreme I've ever heard. You drawing the line. Going to block him if he doesn't boost right now, you're never going to allow him to boost that, right? You block him. Wow. And you have the power to do that I do. Yeah, I can do it. I'm planet rage. That's social too, because I control the social. Wow. That's great. Hashtag block says Billy don't blocked. Yeah. Hashtag blocked.

See, USB doesn't mean ever blocks anybody. I know that he said that multiple times because it's violence. He is blocking his violence. He wants to nuke Russia, but block it to somebody else. X is violent. You can't. We can't really block on X anymore. I hell you can. They block people every day, but they still can see what you're posting Elon change that. These sort of sort of they have to they have to log in without being logged in.

No. Even if you're logged in because they realize that you could just go in under another account and see it. So there was no point in pretending to block somebody now. So, if you want your tweets or whatever they're called now to be totally private, you actually have to set the whole account as private and then authorize people individually one by one, you know. So if anything fun and exciting coming up this week, you do want a big Super Bowl party this weekend.

Oh, is there a big festival happening? Yeah. Big Taylor Swift football thing. Donald Trump showing up. That should make the the people of New Orleans so happy. And Joe Biden's going to with one of her kids. So Jill Biden and Donald Trump are both going to be in New Orleans for the Super Bowl. Hey territories Wisconsin. It's like better than the Taylor Swift concert, though. I mean, isn't that what's happening in New Orleans? This is a big old Taylor Swift appearance event.

It's going to be kind of they're going to play football though, but I don't think she's going to be a singer. Although I mean watching Taylor Swift I mean let's I'm not I'm not advocating for this. But you could take out Donald Trump, Taylor Swift, Joe Biden all in one fell swoop. Yes. If you could somehow take out New Orleans tomorrow, I'm pretty sure this is Swift. Has better security than any of those people travel. Well, TSA, Secret Service, we know. So she's pretty much.

It probably has more than a Donald Trump. Oh, absolutely. Just say so lately. Private security is always better. It is because they care about their job and they're getting paid better when they're there. And and they're not worried about, how it's going to look the, high priced penthouse that Taylor has in New York, she bought the unit next to it for her security detail. So, I mean, there's there's that it's like it's you get to live in the lap of luxury. And you didn't boo ksbw.

So we're done. We have broken up. We are never getting back together. Ever, ever, ever. Just saying. Any final words, Jean knew. When? We.
