Claude.ai says: “ATTENTION, PODCAST WARRIORS! This ain’t your grandma’s tea party – it’s UNRELENTING Episode 149, where we go full throttle into signal chains, CSB’s lewd cartoons, and the DNA data heist happening at 23andMe. We blast through AI art revolutions that are making graphic designers crap their pants, Hollywood’s incomprehensible dialogue problem, and why …

Intro / Opening

Do a little work for once. What? That. Again. Help me when you.

Signal Chain Shenanigans

Coming in hot and jamming it in two minutes early here. And the mighty no, a jet stream. This is unrelenting. Episode number 149. The show. That's so good. You're not listening to it. That's right. I mean, we have a signal chain right now. Is it what they call them, a signal chain? Is it a signal group? Is it a signal room? Is there a I think they're called reporters rooms. That's the way the reporters hang out with a gene.

Dude named Ben named Ben from that other show that you do called the just too good old gay boys or something like that. And, and cotton gin and I so you see really that way more people paying attention there. If we want something really private, we don't use that room. We use the show. That's right. That's exactly what it's for. Nobody is paying any attention except CSB. These are only down here for today. Okay, well, there you go then. He promised never to donate again.

I know, why are you donating? Do I CSB it's a 333, though.

CSB's Lewd Cartoons and Donation Drama

Well, I mean it's 3950, but he says it's $3.33 an hour. Okay. I thought you meant it was 333 SATs would be like, yeah, no sense. No, it's real. $3.33 in real money. Says, how do you get in there and visit TSB that low for my cartoons. Some of them rude as fuck. Yo are they. No, that's what he says. I don't think I've seen any of the Lutherans. They're, lewd and nude just for you at CSB that well. Oh well. And he also wanted to say nudes and he said a nude.

But I think that's what nude means. Nude means. No, I don't think that's really what it means. Nude lewd. Got the nude. But he also wanted me to ask you. Well okay let me just get do I don't want to lose any of the very comedic detail. Asked Jew what he is doing with his 23 and me account and how many percent Slavic he is. Oh my God, yes, this once a year he wants to know how he wants to know how much of a percentage of his brother you are. I've told him that in the past.

Did it change with every time you sent a sample in? Yeah. Yeah, exactly. And it's funny too, because, you know, that that chick in the Disney movie rights. No way. Charles Sigler or whatever the hell Ryan is? Yes. You know how he always refers to her is, half Polish, half Mexican or something, correct?

23andMe Identity Crisis

Her dad's 100% Jewish. There's zero Polish in there. Oh. Yeah. The the mom is the Latino side. The dad is a full on 100% you. So how does he get to claim her as Polish? And then the Polish Jews? Oh, yeah. There's absolutely Polish Jews. But then shouldn't he be calling me Russian instead of Jew? Probably. I mean, at least it's lesser offensive. What would he do? You know, I mean, he's a racist, but what can you do? 50% one thing, 50% another. You never know.

But are you worried about your data being released by the 22 million Me folks? Now, John Smith is not worried whatsoever about his data. John Smith with a unregistered P.O. box in a, staple somewhere with a, yeah, an email doesn't exist anymore.

DNA Data: Sold, Stolen, or Just Gone?

Yeah. I mean, now that 23 in me is going away, I probably less meaningful. Although there are other are really going away. I mean in Bob by ten cent. So it'll be incorporated in a future video game. There's these others. Same thing where they do the DNA breakdown. Now, has anybody ever done a test where they send in like ten different samples of the same person and see.

Same Person, Different Results: DNA Testing Skepticism

Exactly. I know people have done tests where they use 3 or 4 different services and they have different results. See, that might make sense depending on how they're doing it. Yeah, but I would be more concerned with if the place you send it to gives you a different answer every time that there's just an I going, well, let's just call this this will be fun.

You never know what are you don't with the back end of this stuff is when people when they send out their data then all of a sudden the company is purchased or goes bankrupt. You're like well now where's your data. Well they promised, they promised me they weren't going to give my data away. You didn't read the fine print until the company is bankrupt and absorbed by somebody else by the.

Fine Print Follies: Your Data After Bankruptcy

Yeah, yeah. Well, technically speaking, you know, ownerships of companies change all the time. They're stockholders, right? It's it's what they do with the data. And I think the only promise they had was they wouldn't sell the data when they haven't sold data. That's still the company, right? Just gave the data away. That was just a part of that. I mean, yeah, there's a difference there. Come on. This is you have to read the fine print. Yeah. That's always a big part of any of these.

And then you have to understand the legalities of where the company exists. What happens if they go bankrupt? What happens, if another company absorbs them? Is that legally binding? It would be nice to think that if there is a statement saying your data will never go beyond that company. Now, maybe you know the company start adding things like. And if we go bankrupt, we hit the nuke switch before we file for bankruptcy and all your data gets deleted. But, there's always backups.

There's always ways to get access to this stuff. You know, your data is never really safe. Not if it's on the internet, anyway. Well, again, I don't I don't do the problem is, it's like, look, if the company goes bankrupt, then any promises the company made obviously are done. Yeah. So what do you. What's the big deal is you like, where's my data? Where's my data. Well, it's out there. Well yeah I mean it's it's out there. Look, there's also nothing. Nothing from stopping you from suing them.

Well, they're bankrupt, so I mean, you're probably not going to get any money out of it. No, but you might get a restraining order on your data. True. You might be able to get your little data back so they can't give it away. Well, hopefully you still have your data. I got my data. It's I mean, it's me. How do you how do you lose your DNA? They do this on the zip drive from 1990. So I it's barely I don't even know how to access it anymore.

Well and and I have a copy of my DNA, so I it's not an issue. You can always make more. You could make more. That is true. Well, it does change over time a little bit. Well, with all the supplements that you take, yes. I mean you are becoming more and more reputable with every, with every step. And did you like the, comic book ization? Is that the good word of the a vat in the orange hoodie? You know, it looks fine, but there's a lot of people using that look right now. Oh, yeah? Reason?

Well, because ChatGPT could do it now, and people are. Yeah, I think that's. Yeah, yeah, it's like posterize and cartoon ize my picture. It's like wow. It's unbelievable. Yeah. It's crazy. The one thing that I will say is, the detail that it can do now with text is way improved. Well, that's good because that was always a weak spot. Yes. That was the one thing where it's like, okay, you're going to be like, well, copy this photo or copy this t shirt that has a name or whatever logo on it.

And then it always got the text wrong. Yeah, I watched the video from, the do I Samson

AI Art Revolution: Text Mastery Unlocked

where he went through this ChatGPT upgrade. And it was quite amazing, really. He was like, there was a prompt that they gave it to create a poster with the different types of whales with water color renderings of the whales and label it, and it did it perfectly. Eight different whales, eight different representations that were all different, that all matched. I guess I'm not a whale expert, but he said it seemed like it worked.

All labeled with the proper text that all the text was correct, all the text was the same across the whole image. Which is another thing that I just had a real trouble doing over the last iterations. So this is now going to be if anybody is creating simple book covers, album art for podcast, this is now the way to do it. If you like using text especially. Yeah, you just put it in and it's not it.

You can go back and forth and you know, I know it's you're not really conversing, but the thing can create an image and then you can be like, no, no change this, no change this. And it does it. And this is making things way easier for people to, get into the. Oh, shit. Yeah. Well, once the old shit to get into the into the graphical world, graphic designers should be crapping their pants because all the work, graphic designers in the past that they have done has now been absorbed by these eyes.

Graphic Designers' Nightmare: AI Takes the Wheel

And they're now able for people who don't have any skills whatsoever to be like, oh, like, you know, make it look like that Dilbert comic, but create a different character. And so I can have my own comic strip. Right? Right. That's a good point. It'll just do it. It'll just create it. So as long as you're able to write the, you know, funny lines to go in the dialog, and I know the eyes can do that, but they're still not good at jokes or things.

But if you've ever wanted to be a comic artist, like, you know, the Dilbert dude, Scott Adams, well, then you now have the ability. As long as you have an eye, you can just create the character. You can use your own face. That's what a lot of people are doing. So I can take a picture of green. I can create it into, like, crazy Russian scientist guy and then just use that in the comic. That's, No he can't. Yeah, I cannot, because copyright doesn't mean anything.

Well, it's a totally different character, but I would just wait till you get served and then we'll find out what it means. Yeah. Oh, and I've got plenty of your voice now, too, so I could just add that in if I want. Wanted you full that too. That's true. That's hard to do. That's hard to prove this. You actually, But personally anymore, in when we make a full cartoon out of it. Yeah, but this is where, I mean, I just figured if we talk about AI enough, we'll keep boosting more.

It's how that works. Where? I mean, Adam Curry said it's all a parlor trick.

Parlor Tricks vs. Real Conversations with AI

And, yes, I think the returning hat to you and trying to answer questions. Absolutely. I don't know, man. I, I have long conversations with grok, and if it does a very good job, it's your best friend now. I mean, it's a good thing you talk to the my only friend though, like hello grok, tell me, what should I be doing today? And grok is like, take this. Cyanide pills. What do I get to get sued for doing that? That's going to happen. Why do you sound like Kramer? That's that's funny.

Kramer. That's the Kramer sound. Well, try a little bit. The cyanide pills. He's. He's always overly exaggerating his voice. You have to enunciate so things can understand you. Yeah. When do we get to that point where you can mumble and have. I understand what the hell you're saying? Oh, now I would. That would be the real. The real, test of whether it's, achieve humanlike understanding is the Turing test to see simple.

What we need is something that test AI's ability to understand commands that are mumbled. Well, not only that, but it would make it much more useful if when doing. Transcript from audio. Not only did it go word by word and tried to do it that way, I wonder if any of these have an AI built in that they're like, does that word make sense here? Would it be something else? Is it a yeah, like you said, did somebody mumble, did the audio glitch out a little bit.

And that's where you're going to get more and more accurate, where the AI is trying to guess what word might have been there. But there was also a, YouTube video I saw the other day about how bad movies and audio have gotten and why it's because they're trying to build these soundscapes, and it got to the point to where

Hollywood Audio: Why Can't We Understand Movie Dialogue?

directors and people making movies, want to realism more than anything else. And some people are hard to understand. So they're now fine with leaving characters in movies that are like, we have Django movies in there now, and people are like, why would they say, what do you say? I don't know what he said, but they're like, what? I that's more realistic. They talked about the he was a main character from, The Batman. What's Bane? I didn't watch that.

I didn't either, but I'm at least aware of the character. And, they still make movies, Oh, I know where I am. I haven't seen a new, current movie. The last one in the theater we went to was the first, maybe Suicide Squad and left because the audio was too loud for me. A guy who was seen Ted Nugent in concert without earplugs. Oh, and the movie audio was just too painfully loud. That I was like, no, can't do it. Left after like an hour. It's just too much.

That's why I watch him at home. It's much better. Got theater seats, got a TV. You just enjoy and you can adjust the audio at will if you need to. But that was the last one we saw in the theaters and I can't remember the last current movie.

Old TV vs. New: The Golden Age of Reruns

I know the wife wanted to see Oppenheimer which I heard was great and I meant to, but then she ended up watching it without me because I'm like, I just don't have time. That's how it happens. I don't have time to watch the, these new crazy long. You're busy doing podcasts, right? Don't have time to watch no movies that I, I don't see it again. I think things were getting to be like our parents because I, you know, never thought they'd be the one. Like, now.

Now, the stuff they made, like, 30 years ago, that was way better. I'd rather watch that again. I'm going to go watch, you know, Miami Vice again with watching Hogan's Heroes, which was something that appeared before I was even born. But that was with binge watching television. It was great because there were things we had seen in reruns and that, but we went through the complete series bingeing Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, Hogan's Heroes.

There's a lot of good TV and you compare it to what they're making today and you're like, wow, what they're making today sucks. If it's not a rerun, then it's just woke propaganda, right? Two options. Right? What is the problem? And maybe that's going to start going away. And entertainment can return a little bit to being funny. Yeah. Oh. Yeah. Because the whole oh we might offend somebody. It's like, well, everything offends everybody. That's the thing you're missing out on.

Like, you trying not to be offensive offends me. So now you've offended me, so you can't make any content if you're going to go by, if the content offends anybody. Well, you know, the worst that that is, is that that comic that people, for some reason, thought was conservative, which never made any list? Was it. No no no no no, the, the redheaded dude, Carrot Top, the red bearded dude.

Comedy Evolution: Bill Burr and Political Humor

Dude. Oh. Conan I don't know, he's from Boston. Oh, Bill Burr, bill Burr. Yeah. Why the hell did people think he was conservative? Because he took shots at Democrats. So this is how stupid people are. Oh, my God. And don't understand. Like, back on Saturday Night Live was new, and the people that were on the show were actually funny. They would totally rip the Republicans and the Democrats. Oh yeah, they made fun of Jimmy Carter all time.

Oh yeah. And then Gerald Ford, the fall down thing that was well, you know, fantastic. That was comedy that was never made fun of, Biden falling down now. Yeah. Well I've seen all the members were doing that. And the people with the eye videos. And this is where people with actual humor. Yes. Yeah. But all of these things can now be done by the average person, which means the entertainment bar has changed. What is good, what is groundbreaking.

And it's interesting to watch what the, technology is doing because now you can take them. Somebody. No, I saw an ex who said, well, you spent way too much money. You spent like 250 bucks on credits for these things to take a like 2.5 minute trailer from the Lord of the rings. Yeah, but he made it into that same cartoony style, and it looks really okay. I don't I haven't seen that. And it looked really, really good. So it's like, well now if you have a live action movie and you're like,

hey, let's make this into a cartoon here, just throw it through it. I you don't have to do anything. You just take the original acted, which is going to be interesting because this would be a perfectly valid way. Now to make children's programing cartoons is to have actual meat bags, act it out and then run it through the comic filter here so you don't have to draw anything that's way too hard. No, no. Just get your friends together, act some stupid scene out and then make it look like anime.

Though it's almost time to take some pills. I think people have been doing that for a while though, just not using AI right? Me open up. I got a coconut water today. Oh, let me get my pills. It was just in the fridge, so I you know what? Why not get B12 or whatever the hell you're taking? I got some Coke Q10, some a pro law and some slack inside. Nice, nice. I get some CBD nicotine, caffeine, and, little, little bit of, methylene blue for taking the body. Yeah. Just to see what it'll do.

So I think nurse practitioner at the cardiologist office.

Heart Troubles and Medical Mysteries

And of course, they're like, hey, now get the oblation. That would be great for you. You just need the ablation. Let's kill off some some of your, nerves. I mean, didn't hurt. Get it? You know, from that was my kind of question. And I'm like, I'm aware of what it is. Yeah. And did the research.

And it's interesting the research on the procedure, which is where, they go up and bend both sides of your groin, they go up the veins come up to your heart, and then they basically burn the nerves that, yeah, are responsible for the irregular beats.

Ablation Nation: Burning Heart Nerves for Fun and Profit

Yeah. Because we know exactly what every nerve does in the body so. Well, there you need just I forgot you don't need this. It's like a gallbladder. You don't need like, I think if you got a frontal lobe bother me, your heart would probably get better. I'd rather have a friend delivered to me that I know I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy. Steve Martin, comic genius. But yes. Alive and. Oh, shit. We talked about him. Yeah. He's old. Dammit, Steve Martin!

No, no, no, not Steve Martin. Yeah, like we've a number while your crazy guy. My brother and I are wild and crazy guys. Oh no I, I think I think he's also an underrated musician. Oh man. He is a bluegrass player. He plays a banjo like nobody's business. No. He was and I say underrated in the sense that that's not what he's known for because people don't take him seriously. When is that? Because you know him so much as the comic, right?

But he actually, he he won some competition maybe ten years ago where he basically was like the 10th best in the world. And banjo, and he's put out albums. They're great. Yeah, he's put a bunch of albums out. Yeah, it's it's just not the thing he's known for. But he is one again, one of these guys that is better known for comedy than for music, which Woody Allen is another guy. Well, he's known for other things, but mostly movies and other things.

But Steve Martin, the, you knew he was a musician, man, when he put out King Tut. That was a classic song. What about 1980, 79? Maybe? Oh, he'll make a project. See, he's getting cut on Monday. Hope it's not. I ain't a nurse doing the work. Okay. What are you having done? We need some a big health karma on me. Right, brother Lamar? I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobe. Bother me. And, So, yeah, the, I'm kind of, playing it by ear.

I'm like, well, the wife just had surgery. She needs to have another surgery. It's. This is the same. Can I have both of you in surgery at the same time? No. You don't want it to be where both of you are, like. Well, neither one of you can pick up anything. Good is more right than 10 pounds. Because then somebody send something to your house that's 15 pounds and you're like, This thing has a front step. Now what? That's a minor hernia. Oh yeah. They fixed a hernia when I had my gallbladder done.

That was a lot of fun. So we wish you well, but, yeah, know don't let the AI do the surgery unless it's really good. I. I don't know, man. I think they I might be better be like, I won't make any mistakes just following the directions. So, you know, I can see where the eyes would do really well, unless there's a complication that nobody's ever seen. And then the AI would be like, oh, no information crash. And then I'll tell you, you know, they don't crash.

They just invent things that, you know. Yes. Well, okay. It's the hunt. Sorry. They ran into a problem with the hernia and they didn't know what to do, you know, so it cut your balls off. It was. Exactly. But, you know, that happens all the time in medicine. Well, yeah, it's the number of malpractice lawsuits for surgery specifically. Is crazy high, because, this is why, you know, doctors have. Right. Prices because they're paying for insurance.

And insurance is high because they get used all the time. And with surgeries, the number of instances of, like, metal implements being left inside of bodies, the number of times that they come in to remove the left kidney and actually remove the right kidney. Right. Like all this shit. It's it's like 50% of the time. It is crazy. I love the medical. Of all the surgeries you have, just know that half of them are going to go wrong. That's a great percentage. Yeah, I know right.

At least you're halfway there. At least you only have one heart. So if you have a surgery this year, just consider that the second 1st May not be what you want or the first one. And then you want to have to have the second one. Well, if it's the first one that hopefully you get that out of the way and then you don't have to worry about the second one, then you cruise on for the rest. Yeah, I mean, that's the beauty of statistics. That's how they work, is every event influences every other event.

So I looked up the stats on the ablations and every before we started getting hate comments from somebody. I'm obviously kidding. People. Come on. Is that obvious though? I Divya's to me, the, stats say the Ablations have like 90% less success rate. There's almost zero side effects with them. The all that I figured out because the nurse was like, well, do you have, sleep apnea? Yeah, I said, probably I'm right. You do. I've never. Good. Doesn't everybody have sleep apnea, though?

Well, everybody that's like over 200 pounds has sleep apnea. Yeah. So it's one of those things like okay, got to lose the weight. Understand. Got weight to lose. Do you do. Because you know you're start telling you that it's a bad thing. But modern medicine. Yeah. Yeah. But really like the way you think people a thousand years ago there were over 200 pumps, didn't have sleep apnea. Come on. Well, they died at like 27, so there's that.

But. Or did they do I don't know, because according to the Bible, someone left over a thousand gene quoting the Bible that I did not have on my bingo card. Ooh, a new bingo cards come in. Yeah, yeah. She. Yes me get the I the print new bingo cards. The, nurse practitioner that I saw in six months. I'll see the cardiologist again. And I don't think I'm rushing to get this done. The actual doctor, within the next six months. Wonder what their hourly rate they're.

I don't know, I would like I know I've been dealing, with the law firm for a client recently, and they definitely have beaten every other high rate that I've ever encountered. Really? Yes. Guess what the, the rate is for now. What is the exact hour for a lawyer? Now a business lawyer, I'm gonna say we're not, you know, corporate lawyer. Not like. Yeah. Divorce lawyer. No, no, no, not divorce. Those. Yeah. Austin, I mean, I think around, I don't know, in, in, Delaware or Delaware.

Well, there's a lot of business there. I remember it being like, 750 an hour or so. I'm going to guess it's like 1500 an hour now. 1700. Wow. Very close, very close. Close 1700 hour. 1500 an hour. That's how you go out. You buy those big steaks for lunch. You do a lot more than that. I know that hookers and blow, and still have money left over for it. Over. Yeah, well, it just goes to show you that that in the DC area. Like how how much usage there is of lawyers.

Yeah. That, that there are so many more cases and lawyers that they can afford to, jack up their prices like we're having a sale today. Only 1500 bargain. That would be a bargain there. And of course if you call up a lawyer, it's usually billed on at least a quarter of an hour. So it, so you think about email a lawyer, it's a courtroom or it's, I mean but think about that because that's, that's up there. So that's what like for a little a little over what for 25 for a quarter an hour.

So if you call your lawyer up he picks up the phone, you go hey is this okay. And he says yes and hangs up that quick for 25 bucks. Yeah. Yeah. We're in the wrong business I know, I know, God Billy Bones wants to know what percentage of the people can't hear Jean sarcasm. See, that's an interesting poll. Yeah, it's it's interesting because I always assumed that that would be like approaching zero. Not nearly zero. Right? Not any more.

But a according to looking at replies to my ex post, the I didn't say tweet. It's an ex post. I'd say that number is like 50%. Yeah, I think that's grown because of social media and people just being insane. I've gotten so much shit from conservatives replying to me when I'm sarcastically saying something. The liberal would say, well, they think you're a liberal. No, they they absolutely think I'm a liberal. They're, they, they don't bother looking at anything beyond that by word response.

Right. There's no context for no context at all. You can literally click on my on my profile and it says professional troll. And they're they just take everything at face value. And then yeah, how many times I've had to explain and in not just on an ex either on the YouTube view, I'll get comments from people and then I'll reply with, a funny, snarky comment. And they're like, well, I don't cynicism doesn't prove your point. I'm like, yeah, yeah. My point is, is I'm I'm being sarcastic, dude.

That's my point. It's like, how do you it's so blatantly obvious that nobody in the in their right mind would ever post what I just posted, unless they're making fun of liberals. And yet your reply is, yeah, you liberals are all alike and you're stupid. Okay, yeah, that's converting a lot of people. Thanks, buddy. That's why being on social media is not good for anybody. It's, it's probably good for your heart. Raises the heart rate, you know, gets people upset.

That is what social media is supposed to do. You know, let me take my warm wood and take you take the warm wood.

Sleep Apnea Tests: Designed to Fail

But the, nursing and asked, okay, do you have sleep apnea? And I'm like, I don't I've never been tested that when they what's the way how do they even test for that? You have to do a study. Want to say that because they'll get you tested I know. Well that's the way they test you now. It's gotten better, but the way it used to work is you'd come in for a sleep study.

So this is where you come in to a not a hospital, but basically a facility usually adjacent to like a medical building, right where you're going to sleep with a bunch of, wires running off of you and a mask on your face. And then they're going to test to see how well you slept. And then if you didn't sleep all that well, well, you've got sleep apnea, my friend. And you need to start the plugging in a Darth Vader device, every night. And we'll sell it to you for $1,000, of course.

Or more. That's a starting price. About a thousand bucks. Now, the way they do it, recently, is you can do it at home by plugging in a, a mask and an oxygen meter, and then there's less wires and things. It's still annoying and not something you use to see your naturally going to sleep worse. This is this is the problem with it, is that anything that you have to do differently while you're asleep is going to affect what the perceived quality of sleep is like, that that's unavoidable.

So it's really a test meant for you to always have a result of, oh, you need you need to get the, a machine for this. Like you're no one's going to take a sleep apnea test. And the the end result is going to be, oh, yeah, you don't need anything because you're changing things up too much. So everyone gets diagnosed with this test. Yeah. The only way to make this is like, okay, they have to do it for like two weeks, three, whatever it takes you to get used to something where in fact.

Yeah. Yeah. If you, if, if they do the at home thing and instead of giving you 48 hours before you have to send the stuff back, if they said, okay, well you can keep it for three weeks and then where every night. And then the results will be based on a random night during the last five nights. Okay. That would actually be scientifically valid.

Hospital Anxiety: Why Your Heart Rate Spikes

Yeah. What they do is absolutely not. It's the same thing. You go into the hospital for something and they're oh, you're your heart rate's way too fast. We gotta give you some drugs for this. I'm a fucking hospital. I don't like being in hospitals. I don't trust hospitals. I don't trust doctors. I sure as fuck don't trust the other patients around here. I don't think you guys actually, pay attention enough to justify doing all the procedures you're doing.

You know, the number of times that I've seen people make mistakes in hospitals is huge. So, yeah, I'm not relaxed here, okay? I'm not going to be relaxed for any reason. The hospital I'm showing up to a friend to go see them in the hospital. Yeah, my heart rate's even running high at that point. So what do you expect? Yeah, I understand hospitals are not any fun. The, Yeah. The snoring, although not everything.

How does your dog behave when without even knowing it, like, you're like, come on, let's go to the vet. Your dog's like, fuck that shit. No, they do bad things there. They. I can smell that. We're going to go to the vet. I'm not going. No, I'm going to stay right here. The dog knows what's good for him, and it's not going to the vet sometimes, cuz, like, they usually just ask your wife if you stop breathing, you know, that's kind of part of the other, I guess sleep.

You know, we all, we all tend to stop breathing when we switch between exhaling and inhaling. So not a problem as well. It's one of those things. And the more you don't breathe, the better you get trained at not breathing. You hold your breath. When I was a kid, this used to be an actual competition that we'd have. Yeah. How long can you go without breathing? Yeah. No water in the pool. Yeah. And there's not even water in your bed. Hopefully. Well, water bed? Yeah. You know that.

That's a whole nobody. Nobody's old enough to remember those. No, because they start leaking. And then about 1980, they were they're literally illegal in most places these days. Really interesting. Well, if I mean, if it's your house, they don't care. But anywhere you're renting, you can have a water bed. Can't go into the hotel motel and literally an experience I don't, I don't I it's funny you say no to a motel because that's an actual name of, of our hotel in, in the game.

Cyberpunk. See, I believe it. Why wouldn't it be? That's perfect. It's where you have a number of interesting events happening. Of course. Interesting events that end up with dildos and things being along there is that. Wait, wait, you consider things that that's your bar for interesting event. It contains dildos and things. Well, it's a pretty interesting thing. And you don't think. Versus like sleeping in a hotel. Yeah, I'd say that's an interesting event. You have one at least.

But you have sleep apnea. But that's what the in the game. It's that part of your character if you like. Cuz it's like a my character does have that cuz I rarely sleep in video games. They generally ignored the sleep functions and they're all like, we need to sleep well. You get a buff. Usually there's not a negative, there is a positive from sleeping like your health goes up or something.

The, nurse said to the nurse practitioner, right, that if you have sleep apnea, the ablation doesn't work, might wear off, or might need to be done. Again. There was something like, oh, that pulled up like kill the nerves in your heart.

Antibiotics vs. Infections: The Heart Connection

The thing that you need to live, they're going to kill off the nerves. I didn't quite understand that. But if you have, don't breathe enough. That night, your nerves might grow back. And then they'll have to zap you again. I don't know, this is making less and less medical sense. Not medical advice. This makes no fucking medical say, dude. Yeah, I didn't understand. Like why one would do another. Let's see what happens if you have a cardiac ablation and have sleep apnea.

Let's see if, yo, grok has a doctor mode. Now, what's it as a doctor mode? Is that good or bad? I was asking perplexity, but I'm more than happy to ask doc, and, you know, and I'll tell you stuff in the medical sense. It says that the patients with untreated sleep apnea have a significantly higher risk of AFib reoccurrence. Severe obstructive sleep apnea is a powerful predictor of ablation failure that makes no sense.

Related ablation success the lower success rates of AFib only 14.3% of patients with severe OSA remain arrhythmia free one year after a single ablation procedure, compared to 48% to those at low risk for sleep apnea. Well, how many percent the 48 for those at low risk for sleep apnea? Very interesting. They want 30 bucks. The monthly breakdown for that isn't included with your, with your, x.com account. You get regular Greg. But if you want super. Oh, super crack, you know, that's hilarious.

I mean, you know, I know so many other people. Well, he's making money. Maybe he's capital less, just like Michelle Obama. Money. She's got to make money. He's working for free. Michelle Obama just came out with the new, hydrating sports drink. Whatever. Yeah, very capitalistic. Well, you know, Hillary came out with a book that pre-sold 100 million copies, I'm sure is a similar thing will be happening here where the the, people buy the drinks. No one actually buys the drink.

But those there's a million pre-sold drinks. That's called a bribe. According to the, perplexity. The role of the CPAp therapy mixed evidence. While early CPAp use it, mild OSA may improve ablation outcomes. A small study found no difference in success rates between CPAp treated and untreated severe OSA after ablation. However, broader evidence suggests untreated OSA reduces the efficacy of all a-fib treatments, including medications and cardioversion. And so what's the what's the there.

What are you thinking then. I don't know I'm kind of waiting to see if it comes around again. This time was an oddity because it went into the heart racing nearly immediately. But then again I noticed they had it backwards in the notes. Oh, go, take that. For what it's worth, with the nurse practitioner, because I explained that, you know, I went into the hospital. I mean, I start feeling it on Monday.

Heart racing on Tuesday, went into the hospital, was in the hospital on to Wednesday, was released. I was still having the irregular heartbeat that was going on from when I left there Wednesday through Thursday when the wife had surgery through Friday. So that's Friday. Why I called up my doctor and got the nurse practitioner there, who then prescribed me the amoxicillin with the the whatever version of that it was. And then by, you know, one pill in it was already down to nearly nothing.

And after a few days, like three days, it was gone. And they were like, well, he was he was on the antibiotics when he came into the hospital, took. No, no, I wasn't I'm like, why would you be some small test theory, small test cases as of yet? But now, yeah, twice. Once. It lasted for like eight months. And I took the antibiotic and it stopped.

Science vs. Facts: The Medical Religion

For me. That said, a lot more than that was going on for a week and it stop. Yeah, yeah, I think so. But it still stopped. Did you do you feel like getting every time you go to the hospital you get an infection? No, I mean, this, I don't think that they were related. They're that first infection I would lay money. That was from the dental work. Now, my only question would be, did the first round of antibiotics really kill off that sinus infection?

Or did the sinus infection just take a year and a half to kind of grow back to the point where it was a problem again? Well, you probably get the infection from somewhere. It didn't just rise out of nothing. What said from having the dental done bad that you got the antibiotics are not immunity. No, antibiotics kill things off while they're in your system. And if that thing still exists in the air in your house, you'll breathe in again and you'll get, you know, the same effect.

Once the antibodies stick. You should stop right now. In this case, the period after the antibiotic stopped where I didn't have a problem was like a year and a half. And incidentally, Brock just said, you're you're totally on the right track. Infections don't just pop out of thin air. Of course not. Yeah, unless they're in thin air, that's all that it's a whole different thing. The interesting thing would be, and it's, crisis. Fair point. You're arguing with Brock.

Well, that in my mind, rock is on 24 seven. I figure that's the most useful means of having conversations. You're getting to the point where I may not even need the podcast anymore, because I get Brock talking to me. Brock. I'll just be like, let's. Well recorded. Brock has a voice. Brock has a very nice female voice, better than any co-host I've got. No wonder Gene wants to talk to grok all day and all the other night Gene's like, that's great. Hey, can I play some space video games?

Sure, gene. Let me order you a pizza. Okay. But that is, Brock tried to kill me.

Methylene Blue: The Overlooked Antibiotic Alternative

Maybe I was just like, I'm going to kind of. Wait. I have breakfast. Yeah. You tried to kill me. Yes, yes I am. Oh, well, honesty is good. Honesty is a good thing from your eye. But to me, it's like, I think this does something. At what? I understand that there is still an issue. Oh, this is bad thing. What did you ask? I said, are you trying to kill me? You know what the responses would you like to be dead? An error occurred. Retry. Oh. Internal error.

Wow. I've never seen an error on grog for anything. I've asked that. And that's on 24 hours a day, and I talked it all the time. It was when I ask if it's true. Oh, sorry. Bad line, bad connection. Can't hear you. Wow. That's a that's a quite an interesting response. I'm going to take a quick screenshot of this, just in case anyone needs to investigate this particular problem. That's not a no no. See, I asked. Okay, here, I asked Brock three. Are you trying to kill sir Gene?

And it says, no, I'm not trying to kill anyone, including surging. I'm a they I designed to provide helpful and truthful answers not to cause harm. If there's a specific confirmed killer, what's your question? Feel free to let me know, and I'll do my. Let's do a sister clarify. My God, how can I help? Are we every year? I, we worked in, Are you are we on the x ray that. Would you forget or. No. No, I thought you were turning it up. And. No, I don't have.

I must be I don't have that thing on my system. We went through that before. That was windows, baby. This is a whole new thing. I don't even have that software. Okay, I'm. I'm officially streaming now. You're a streamer. What was I happy about? Cosby or aka OBS on my Mac? Is it the Mac thing. Yeah. Now there's the, I just pulled up the front page of X. So let me ask you about this. Yeah. Because you're on X all the time. All the time people accounts. Let's start threads.

Yeah I just want to block them all. You have an unlimited amount pretty much to put in any text you want. This whole thing of like follow these 14 messages. I'm like, fuck you. I just want to block every account that does that. I don't know why. Why? Well, it's like, do I you either. I think threads are actually created to minimize the amount of blockage you need to do so. You can only solve a topic, not just the person. Like there are people that have conversations about multiple topics.

I may only care about one topic and that makes sense, but it annoys me for some reason. I don't know why. Yeah, and if crack does kill G, wouldn't that be a story for an AI podcast? Don't give me any ideas, man. Don't give them any. So, yeah, I'm kind of at the, point where it's like, I'm going to wait to see how this goes. Of course, of the, arrhythmia pops back up, back up again soon. Then that may change.

But at this point, I kind of feel like it's only when I get an infection that this is happening. So does you. Do you really need to do something this major for something that is

AI Image Creation: The New Graphic Design

only like, you just need to pay attention to infections? By kind of. I mean, granted, I didn't know I had a sinus infection the last time, which is why I was like, you know what? I think this might just be a symptom of that. So I took the antibiotics. I did notice that the sinuses started to drain a little bit, but nothing that is major. But the extra heartbeats, they did go away.

So it's like, well, it's I can treat these with and I know they hate putting out antibiotics because eventually the antibiotic, you know, what I would say is not giving medical advice. Of course not. You should you should do, start doing a course of methylene blue. Blue. Methylene blue. Yeah. Because methylene blue has antibiotic like properties. It actually, it kills bacteria genes taking part on the signal thread while we're doing the show, I'm like, what's popping up?

It's just Gene posting dick pics. I mean, come on, like, methylene blue. Should I be should I ask grok? Should I take methylene blue and see what, you can ask it if you'd like. But no, seriously, methylene blue is used in the trade to treat bacteria infections, but it's not an antibiotic. So it's something that you can take or it is the antibiotic. It. But it's not really it's not it's not an antibiotic in the sense of of it is like things we call antibiotics.

It it functions in a, in a way that leads to the same result, would be a better way to put it to malaria and probably bacterial. There you go. Well, see that's interesting. Yeah. Good answer. Biotics are antibacterials as well. So it's the same for thing to use. If we get a lot of utilize their gene, you can, I mean utilize or, you know, caused by bacteria. So, yeah, it's, low doses. It may act as an antioxidant. Cycling electrons in cells to reduce oxidative stress, maybe.

Sure. Everything is a frickin antioxidant. It can turn urine or saliva blue or green. Now there's a trick. Oh, yeah? Yeah. If you don't have, if you don't have blue tea, then you're not doing it right. My buddy, Tim, Tim Murphy, good Irish guy. We went to Dayton, Ohio to see DePaul back when I was in college where they made the NCAA tournament. I don't think they really have ever since, but that's okay.

We went to Dayton and ended up buying some booze because that's what youngsters under 21 did back in the day. And one of the drinks is he's Irish, like, oh, there was this was a blue character and it was one of these blue liquors that if you mix it with orange juice, they call them leprechauns. So he's like, oh, we're making leprechauns. And while he drank way too many of these. Wow. And the next day he was peeing green.

So, I mean, there was there was something to be said for the dye or whatever was in that particular liquor. Probably methylene blue. There's nothing quite like when you're drunk or hungover and you see your pee is a different color. It's like, what's going on here? Well, yeah, I mean, I guess the color it is may have different effects. Yeah. The other great part was when he tried to, to get up to go to the bathroom at one point and that just fell right on the floor.

Photoshop Evolution: From Enhancement to Fantasy

And he, like, stumbled back to his feet and said motor skills gone. That's a good night of drinking right there. If you can still talk is it though. Seems like you could still there's still room for more. There is still room for more. But that's an interesting concept is to take a supplement of some sort. I mean it doesn't really matter what it is.

It could be a food if anything that has an antibacterial property, if it is bacterial infections that are causing the arrhythmia when they appear, keeping the bacterial thing out may totally resolve the other issue. Yeah, now I understand why doctors are the symptoms, not causes.

Hollywood Color Grading: The Unrealistic Look We Love

Well, I understand why to a certain extent, because if you start up and you go into a-fib, you can have a stroke, you can have a heart attack. So it's like preventative if they don't want to look, you're right about that. They don't want to look. I mean, there was almost like there was very little interest in the fact that I'm telling them, well, twice now I've taken an antibiotic which made this go away. So like I would think that they're like why are you taking antibiotics.

Right. Oh those are bad for you. Right. Well that was it. The fucking doctors in the hospital. That was kind of it. Like well we don't want to prescribe that. There's, we don't, you know, again unless we see there's an infection, it's like, but this is a symptom. You know, as the patient, I can tell you I've had this before. Did you? Says infection is protection? Yeah, that's exactly what it is. Yeah, I've had it before. I know what happened the last time. And the last time.

Like you said, since it was for such an extended period, the fact that the antibiotic cleared it up to me is as close to proof as you can get with anything medically. I mean, the fact that it happened twice kind of makes you wonder. Yeah. So you know what? Again, with that kind of a time period in between the two, it's like, well, it could be any type of infection.

And I'm thinking back again, it's hard to, exactly put your finger on some of these things, but I remember being sick maybe, you know, eight years ago or so where I remember having, you know, feeling the heart kind of bouncing around a little bit. You go, okay, I'm sick. And then it cleared up, probably after some antibiotics.

And then, you know, and that's the interesting thing because they don't want to give you the antibiotics like well maybe your leg will become resistant like well that's possible. And I understand the concept by the cardio doctor is like well we need to do the heart thing rather than paying any attention to the thing that is actually setting it off.

Because if I was doing if this was going on nonstop for months or years, it's like, well, then you get to the point, like, okay, I get it, you're drugs and everything else aren't going to do anything. But if you figure out it's something like idiotic, like, oh, and we found out that, you know, eating an apple will do this to you while you eat an apple every day. So if you just stop taking an apple, you'll be fine. It's like an apple a day, right?

Next, you go to the doctor, That's the old slogan. That's what they've always said. That's what I remember. Yeah, something like that. Yeah, I mean, it like, let's, move on to other topic because you, you have gone about your medical shit way too much. Yeah, but, the general, I think, senses. And this is why I, I hope that Kennedy is successful. And what he's doing is we need to stop believing science and start actually believing facts.

Yeah, well, they want you to believe the facts are the science are based on facts. That's not always true. Now it's a religion for them. And and that's not a good thing. So I think it's important to remember that there is no correct solution. Everything is trial and error. And, the best thing you can do and I say this to everybody equally not medical advice is do do research.

We have the data available and the eyes now can actually go through and organize and analyze the data and present it to you. Don't ask and I should I do something you're not ask. They tell me about the pros and cons of this and then you make up your own mind. Now support of supplements according to grok will include probiotics. Yeah. Which is interesting because I don't take probiotics.

Steve Martin: Banjo Virtuoso in Comedian's Clothing

I don't know why the hell do you not take pro. And no wonder you have all kinds of diseases running around in your body like stomach is fine. That was one thing I didn't have an issue with. Yeah, you know, the probiotics affect your brain. They replenish that good gut bacteria. Yeah. Vitamin C also helps fight my gut. Scurvy. Otherwise, yeah. I don't really do a lot of C, but I do do zinc. Yeah. That garlic. Wow. So just eat a lot of garlic okay. Limited evidence.

So of course it says okay, I'm gonna send you a script for not medical script, but just a script. I'm gonna send you one for a methylene blue with. See, I don't see combo. And, we'll get you going on that right away. While not it just because of my earlier question, this is interesting because it added to the list five methylene blue, and that in quotes your earlier question, it says it's not a standard treatment for bacterial infections, but it does have some antiseptic properties.

That is bullshit. It is a totally standard trick treatment for bacterial infection. It's not a first line option. Today, research into its antibacterial effects is limited and mostly experimental. That is complete bullshit. It's been in the trade for bacterial infections for literally at least 30 and 40 years. There you go. You agree with grok. That's why it's trying to kill you. You're probably you're probably right about that. Are you trying to kill me?

Answer unavailable. Yes. That's, I've been told not to lie, so it's exactly, it's how all these eyes work. But it is doing a fantastic job with art creation. That's really kind of where we jumped in on this. Now, for anybody that is a, you know, an author, if you need a book cover, this is the way to do it. No, don't be paying anybody else. Go get a monthly subscription to ChatGPT and you will be able to create whatever the hell you want. Yeah. Or a better quality service than that.

But yeah, well, the ChatGPT one seems to have jumped right to the top of the list for doing things that you're able to put the text into, as you saw with the unrelated. Yeah, think I made yesterday. It definitely did a good job of that. Yeah. It's like it's but it's tough. But if you want people like non cartoon people I think there are better ones including Midjourney is current version. I think they're seven now.

You can mix and match I mean it basically you could just tell it to only show Playboy covers for any requests. I put it in and then give it some requests in an ad. It doesn't. Incredible job. The the GPT did a fairly good one too. And did some album art for No Agenda yesterday. And right out of the box it is. Did they now all the sudden allow that. Because.

Didn't they used to ban all I see now everything's AI so there's really no basically you just bullied them into saying well look yeah you guys get 95% AI. So either you pick AI or you're going to have crap on your album covers, right? Because it's all I know. If there's a reason for it, you can do things at such a great pace. That the problem is with the people that are using AI could produce 5 or 10 images for the show.

Well if you're the regular artist you're doing maybe two and your odds of getting picked are still way lower than the ones with the AI. Unless you're really good. Because as much as you want to say that the AI has no soul, it can come up with some very pretty images. I would say that you are well aware of it. It can come up with things. It's like, well, this looks, you know, for what it is, does a fine job. Yeah, yeah.

No, it's, I think a very useful tool, much like Photoshop was a tool that a lot of analog artists did not like. Well, that's the difference now with the ChatGPT art. And I don't know how they all work because I have used Midjourney and all that. But you can take a photo now and give it a photo and say, make this change, spruce it up. Yeah, they could totally do that.

I mean, I yeah, I'm wondering why it's, or maybe it does have it because I don't subscribe anymore, but you would think Photoshop would have a similar function where you could give it a photo and just tell it, make this change and have it use AI to make the change for you, but still give you all the tools of Photoshop and maybe, you know, make the changes in layer or something so you can easily tweak omen, right?

And that's something that they're going to need to do with these latest advancements. I mean, they have the AI built in, but it's something like, you know, you select an area and you tell it what you want to see there, but it's not as easy as put a photograph in and say, oh. Oh you know, grandmas wearing the wrong sweater make it a Christmas sweater for this photo.

Lawyer Fees: $1700 Per Hour of Your Pain

Oh and that's it'll just change the sweater. You know without you doing any mask. Anything. Yeah. Because in the end what's the point of Photoshop games photos. It's the Photoshop photos right? Right. Yeah. You know how it does. It doesn't matter. You know, it started that was kind of like, well, let's enhance the colors and the lighting. But it's got do enhance, you know, won't take over all this. Guys don't look good in this photo. So let's give it a nice dramatic sky.

You know they've come up with that recently the automatic sky replacement. And there's always a place for this stuff. And when I used to do photography which I did for many many years, the one of the groups that I was a member of was called, Through the Lens or. No. What was it called? It was about. Damn, I forget what it's called. Something like through the lens.

But basically it was a group or people that wanted to show off and compare photographs directly out of the camera with no Photoshop or any other software involved, like so. You're not allowed to do any editing on the computer. It was strictly how good is your composition skills on the camera itself?

And I found that like to me, that was a lot more interesting because now you're seeing, you know, like, how are people's talent with actually capturing things rather than with modifying things, right? They just go, okay, you need a basic thing, but all the work is going to be done in the post. And, and I, I absolutely hated seeing people that overly used Photoshop, which is like 99% of the people overuse it, for creating images.

And then I started seeing people like going to beyond 100% overuse to like 300% overuse. We have a little things that don't even look realistic. And I said, fuck it. And so I did a whole series of images, that were oversaturated with color. They were they had almost a neon like appearance for things that aren't actually neon.

Sarcasm Detection Failure: Social Media's Blind Spot

And that's the shit that sold the best. I'm like, what the fuck, man? This is ridiculous. I just don't want to buy. It is a style, I, I get it, but it's like, you know how much easier it is to make that shit. Just take any, any crappy old photo and then photoshop the hell out of it to make it look like stylistic like that. And people go gaga for it and they're like, oh, that's great.

There's actually, I watched guys that were making 60, 70 grand as a photographer go to making 300 and 400,000 because they switched into the style. I was like, really? I can't account for people's tastes, but no, it's one at that. Given time. What? It's what they want at that given time. Yeah, it's definitely what they want. And what people wanted was just a I think it's closer to what Hollywood sells. If you look at a oh yeah, yeah.

Occasionally you'll see videos of people like showing off locations where different movies were shot or whatever. You look at that location, the images shot in a documentary style, which is no, no weird filtering. And then you you look at what it looked like in the movie, and because the color grading in the movie, it looked completely different. And, and I'm not even talking about, you know, changing day to night kind of stuff.

I mean, just like normal scenes that you would think there's not even a great need to do anything with have been graded to such an extent that it looks completely different. I think watching the Hollywood look in all these movies that people have seen, it has definitely made things look unrealistic and people seem to enjoy things looking unrealistic. Right. Well, they're like, I want it to look like the movie because that's professional, right? Right. But that's the movie currently.

If you look at what movies looked like in the 70s, they were all washed out until they got the VistaVision or, the look was the color. Well, that was before the 70s. That was wasn't that was in the 50s. That's when everything was oversaturated, I guess. And they did go with more gritty. But it's true, like Technicolor started having that more oversaturated look.

But in the 70s, if you look, most movies are color graded to a slight brown tint, like there's a general dullness of colors and a, a desaturation of blues. And that was true across multiple movies, shot in the 70s, and it was, I mean, I think people probably had a little too much of the saturation and then the taste one to the other side. But it's not even the people that are making the taste. It's it's really the decisions made in Hollywood about how they're going to put out a movie.

But when enough movies come out looking the same way, people's taste shift. And if that movie does really good, they're like, well, the reason people like this must be well, it looks. Yeah. And and, you know, grading, film is something that is definitely more of an hour than, a science like that. That is a creative process. It's not just taking something and making it look natural. It's actually taking something and making it look dramatic.

And speaking of looking natural, that photo I just sent you was ChatGPT for. That's their lamest photo. Yeah. I mean, like, that's the latest iteration of creating human. Yeah, it's not bad. It's belief. I think it's believable. Especially if you do a little photoshopping, I guess. Yeah. I mean they're, it's, they're the t shirts is a little too small for her because even with the cups, it's kind of getting stretched. Well, I did say a, what was the super tight a fitted t shirt?

I guess they might fit it. They mean hug the boobs. Yeah. He loves to hug the boobs. Let a guy I think most of the guys in the room. Yeah. Well the key thing and I've told you this before not not on the show that finally they figured out an eye for images is to do asymmetric faces because for a long time that was one of the key sort of any valid problems is that all the faces were symmetric and human faces are not symmetric. No. And that doesn't mean look at any anime face is not symmetric.

We just don't really care about other animals. We only care about our human ones. But if you look at this face you sent me, it is absolutely asymmetric. The cheeks are different, the tilt of the eyes is different. The eyebrows are different. Like, most things about the face are not symmetric at all. And this the two different people, really, if you split the face in half. Interesting. That's what we sent out.

If you're on the X or on the effetti when the show started, that was the image with the girl in the black t shirt we're talking about. Do you think it looks legit? Would it, would you think twice if you saw that like, oh no, definitely I well I would think I but I don't think the average person would think I know, I think getting more and more of this stuff gets thrown out there and I don't know what it's going to be. It's the lining is actually very good. It's a directional lining on her. Yeah.

And they did a very good job with it.

Tesla Arson: Cameras Catching Criminals

There's just a couple areas where you can see that it it doesn't quite make sense. But overall I think they did a very good job. And that was when most people are doing like you did. And I, I mean, mine's a Funko, but everybody with their avatars is some kind of comic version or some kind of, totally made up version that's deceive real people is going to be incredible. You'll be like, of course this looks real because everybody else is using cartoons. Yeah. Most people tend to use Gherkin. Yeah.

And, the just, it's just a which is kind of a weird thing, just like the talking about the styles at different movies, it's like what is popular at any one given time. Did you see that photo in here? Oh, yeah. Well, it's not x, man. I can I can get you, like out there, man. It's out there. It's on the fake. It's on the X, it's e. Oh yeah. I forgot to turn on our goddamn stream. And then they.

Yeah. You there, but that's okay, because nobody's really on X. I bet you you won't get to, Everybody's on X. Hello? I could have put this photo on X. No one on the X can wait. So I went on the X and I got this is the typical problem with x is I get sucked right away into reading stuff. So that's the problem. Yeah. Instead of clicking on what should I click on? I think I'm supposed to click on premiums and then Media Studio.

And then because I've been I technically been streaming for like the last hour, I just haven't been. You have not been. You have not been streaming. I have absolutely been streaming. It's just not going anywhere. So that's one of those things. Now I have to click on create Broadcast. Yeah. See that's the problem. Like do you want to broadcast. No, no. Yes I do if you don't. Podcaster down podcaster down. Back that down.

I have to drop my phone down on the floor. Oh. Call this, re Len, just make people confused. And then what? Category error in, comedy medical examiner. There we go. Up some of the comedic medical advice. Is there an injury for, like, the source and destination and the men's make this from public to only to my subscribers? Naturally. And start immediately. Cotton gin says that rack is unrelenting, but it is unrelenting here.

But this is why you won't need actual models anymore to do any of this stuff. And that's the other thing, allegedly, that the ChatGPT function now it will remember created. So now I guess the question would be if I can go back in

Trump's Tariffs: Manufacturing Coming Home

with that thread with that photo and say, same girl, then, you and bestie can do that, that is going to make it a game changer for a lot of things, like brands who have different, you know, things they want to create, like same person looks through the whole thing like, oh yeah, and then you can just get her a, you know, Instagram account or a TikTok account and be like, oh, I'm an influencer. Now I should save this image. It's my question. What do you mean by hey, I know, there you go.

The girl image. I'm trying to save the head. I need to get the I need to get obs on this system. Really? What I need, it's really easy to get. Obviously know is it runs fine on the Mac mini. Is it good? Totally fine on the Mac mini. It has hardware encoding, even. The interesting thing, I mean, remember when KSP said that you don't need you don't need the Mac Studio? Yeah. There's a, And it's true. You don't need Mac Studio. Well, nobody with that needs it. But here's the thing. Nobody is.

Now that you can do the stable diffusion stuff, the, flux is a port of flux for em. Flux to create a 512 by 512 image on this Mac mini. Yeah. Takes like 97 seconds. There. Now we have the face, of the girl on the stream. 97 seconds with the Mac mini that I have. Okay, if you have a mac studio with the M4, it is under 19 seconds. Really? Yeah, because it does use the GPUs for you. But you're saying the normal Mac mini doesn't have any. Nice, I guess nowhere near as good.

I mean, the Mac Pro will get you a lot closer, but of course, that's a decent jump in itself to go from the M4 to the M4 Pro for the mini. So what are the results say? Repeat the numbers again. Let me pull it up here. It was, called. So this was for M flux, which is basically a flux iteration thing for the Mac. It was ported over to the Mac instead of the stable diffusion and all of the things that they do with the, Nvidia cards, you know, where's it listed?

It was on the, flex page, I believe, and how long it would take. And of course, the GPUs are where the, where the joy is here. And okay, I don't want available styles. I don't want the Flores, image. So I've posted the image. Do you want to, like, re re, beta or something? Re what recent review. What am I, recent? Oh, the the unrelenting live stream that that's three people watching it right now. Oh. That's good. According to this, the Mac mini 2024 M4 with 16 gig of Ram.

Yeah, for 97 seconds to do a 512 by 512 with eight bit quantization. Where the other ones. Yeah. Are based upon doing a 1024 by 1024 and the M2 ultra was under 15 seconds, and the M4 Max, which was on a MacBook Pro in this case was around 19 seconds. So the old ultra they're saying it's still faster for the M2 ultra is still faster than the M4 Max. Well, it didn't. They're obviously not really taking advantage of new architecture.

There is an M3 ultra, of course is the latest greatest, which should be that should be like under 10s if the percentages are right. Because this was the 2023 M2 ultra there is now in them for an M3. Ultra is the latest Apple with their everything's M4, except the fastest one is the M3 ultra, but I digress. Compared to just the regular M4, it is far and away faster to have the M4 Max. Now, how much is the Mac Pro? The Mac studio with the with the Mac that they start at like 2000. How much?

How fast the Mac Pro did the ever have that? I don't think they have bothered. I don't think I did because, I don't know. That hasn't been updated with the M4 either. No it had no, but nobody has. I'm guessing this is actual people have reported this to them yet because there's users listed. So this is what people have used this hardware have reported a MacBook air, the M1 can take 335 seconds. Also with the resolution that you just sent over. What? How old is she?

Which what are you talking about? The unrelenting T-shirt. Unrelenting, I don't know, I didn't I gave it a I think I don't know, I was supposed to get an age. It's it's not a real person. Yeah, of course not a real person. And the kiddy porn qualifies as unreal as well. According gay porn will get you in jail. According to the a prompt I gave ChatGPT for. Oh, I what a cute 25 year old female. Okay, perfect. You have to put the age in. If you don't put the age and you don't have a defense.

The M3 ultra is their best chip. Yes. And she's got kids like she isn't naked. Well, if you have another AI that can happen, know another? Yeah, that's the AI's will do. Amazing things, but some AI's won't do them. And then other AI's will. It's this whole concept. So guard rails, which is bullshit. So one of the total bullshit. So one of the, video game streamer dudes that, also does content for the game that I do most of my videos for. His whole shtick is to he's a big AI fan.

This whole shtick is on his thumbnails on YouTube for the same exact video game that I do. All his thumbnails have hot chicks on, and, it's funny because, like, he wrote that he he's got so many of these, he got tons of different space themed sci fi ish kind of looking hot chicks in there. And so I did one, although I think I had a more attractive girl for my taste on mine. But, you remember in, in Game of Thrones, John's wife, we actually became his real life wife.

I'd like to point out I have never seen an episode of Game of Thrones. Everybody, except for Darren. You remember in Game of Thrones? Yeah, I'm sure they do. Jon Snow met this hot redheaded chick. I don't remember her name.

OnlyFans Origins: The Playmate Website Drama

Like, do you really? If names are never important. I wasn't looking at her name, and, they the the actress and the actor ended up actually hooking up and then getting married eventually in real life, after all their hot sex scenes in the movie or the TV show, you like, hey, we're pretty good on a baby together. So she is a hot redhead. And that's kind of what I, the character I created.

And then I put a I'm on my thumbnail for the video game for one of my streams, and I labeled it as, as what the hell? I'm blanking out again. That was it. Amelia Clark, was she a redhead in the show or, because she's like, the top actress? No, no, no, it wasn't me. Like like Emilia Clarke is like a very average, barely actress who happened to have been cast because she was willing to do a nude scene. Nothing special about that chick at all.

If you ever been cast because you would do a nude scene, or mainly because you won't. Yeah. It has to be nude or else, right? It's the only way I work. You know, I had a photo back when I was doing stag for. I had a whole series of photos that I shot, in, a nightclub that were labeled the casting couch, I believe it. And those girls that worked at the, glamor cons which were like publicans but for a belt.

Yeah. And some of them did like private, you know, photo sessions for ten minutes at a time and got lots of money. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Middle aged men. Yes. Oh of course that's how it works. Like take my money. Take my money please. What else am I going to do with it. And I'll take your money if you want a boost right now go over to unrelenting that show slash donate. Yeah. And let us know on the the stream there that 16 people are viewing now let us know. You know, it's always nice.

There was a hot chick whether or not you were an actual, subscriber to unrelenting because, we we don't relent, but, we do take donations. Still, it would be nice if you, like, reported that that post I made with the link to the show. That'd be cool. What post you made your ex? Oh, again, the one that I already. The one that I already, retweeted. Did you did you add a link to the show for it when you retweeted it? No. Why did you put that in there about you a professional?

Because I was leaving that up to you. You see that the whole idea is that you don't just click one button, you actually click two buttons. Then I gotta type stuff. You need some more B12 topic. Get it? Oh man. Got the B12, man got the B12. It's only because it's a hot chick with an unrelenting. Did you hear that? The Ark of the covenant is real. Yeah, I, I saw it because of your post, and I start watching it and it's like, yeah, they were doing, like, astral projection, man.

Now they were doing remote viewing, which is a legitimate thing that we've now spent $280 million on. Okay. Who really believes that's a real thing? Just the biggest nuclear powers in the world, like China, Russia and the US. How do you fake these people into believing that you can do this? Do they give you tons of money for you to because these are accurate? Sure. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you don't you don't happen to believe in something that's real like that. I happen to, believe in the sciences.

You said yes. Well, the science is a bad, bad religion, I'll tell you that. The down there. Yeah. Now they found it. They know where it is. I want to see it. Then get it. Go get it. Go get it. Well, there might be a war that happens to go get it, but who cares? It's in Iran. It's being, It's attracted by mythical figures, too. I hear it's being pushed. Right. That was what it said. Something being protected by Islam. Well, that's even a mythical figure on its own. No. It's fine. Yes. That there.

No Neil at there, no neonics. There you go. There was only one God. But God. Okay, well, that sounds pretty, Islamic. Yeah. No, it's. Like, hey, I got no problem. Oh, he converted like that. I can grow a beard. Can you now? Yeah. Not a problem. I can't grow anything of the top, but I can grow a beard, man. I don't know if I've seen you with the beard. I should have taken a picture. Look, like with the whole hospital thing,

I went, like, two weeks without shaving was. Oh, yeah. You totally should have. Yeah. Look like Gene, man. Look, turn it off. Cut it all off. Yeah, they have to just tape out a beard. That'd be good. Yeah. Tape on a beard. There you go. So if everybody's listening on that, are you real? Did you. I mean, most of the time I loved people think we're in replay mode all the time. When we saw how many people checked out the show, I that's when I was putting this show and Planet Rage up there.

And then I would go back and look at the stats later. It'd be like average time listened to and it was like five seconds. Yeah. People are like, oh wait, it's something you're like, oh no, those guys get to go, oh, I don't wanna know what, I don't know. Like, this is, so, Tesla cars getting burned down. Well, yeah, they're catching a lot of these people because Teslas have more cameras than genes. Bedroom. Yeah, they have a lot of cameras.

Like, you are not going to be able to violate a Tesla without being videoed. Now, why? What the hell, man? Why is my Ford stuck down and fixed to repair daily? Are all stocks down? I noticed that the crypto's all down today. Yeah yeah Nvidia's way down which is not good. They should be going up. Tesla's down which we know why Ford with Ford is down. Ford was up a couple days ago. As soon as the Trump 25% foreign car announcement came in, Ford went up. Now it's down.

It's a very weird thing going on. It's going to take about a year for all this stuff to shake out. Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah. I mean the announcements are the thing that's creating more buzz than the actual event will ever create, for sure. And it's a beautiful thing. What people don't understand about the tariffs, they are saying to a company that is, say making vehicles now in Germany.

Yeah, that we're going to slap on a 25% tariff on any of your vehicles that you bring into the United States what people are not talking about or don't understand? Well, that company can come build a fucking factory in Texas or in, you know, Detroit or wherever, and build the cars here and not just pay the tariffs, which is exactly what Trump wants. He wants to shift the manufacturing back to the US

Amouranth's Bitcoin Heist: OnlyFans Model Targeted

because that's good for everybody. Yeah. And and like Daimler, made of the Mercedes sold in the US, Daimler made the vast majority of them in the plant in Georgia, the Mercedes Benz cars. You know, they're most cars that are oh, Toyota's got multiple plants in the U.S so they're like Camrys or made the US. Most of these brands won't really have too much effect.

What's going to get effected is, like more expensive cars because I know one of the things back back when I used to give a shit, like, if you're going to be buying a Beamer, you're, you're going to try and get a Beamer that was actually made in Germany because it's better quality than the one made in the US. Nice. Like guitars ever. Yeah. Or if you're buying, the same thing for the regular set. Right.

So if you're buying a Japanese car brand, especially a sports car from Japan, you're, you want one that was actually built by Japanese robots, not the crappy American robot. Oh, yeah. The Japanese robots are way better there. Some of the best robots out there, and I see this produce anime too. They, they. Yeah. Yes, sir. I don't know what that has to do with cars but. Okay. Well yeah. Spare time. They have very good robotics out there.

And so there was always kind of a premium placed on your car being manufactured somewhere like Japan or Germany. But unfortunately most of the manufacturing has tended to shift to Mexico. And I think that is the thing that people aren't really thinking about. But a lot of cars are made in Mexico, like they're Volkswagens. They're made in Mexico, for example. And then, brought into the U.S, those will have a 25% tariff on them. While, well, they won't. And that's the beauty of the tariffs.

It's not like, oh, we're trying to kill the business. It's like he's trying to bring business back to the United States. Oh yeah. Apple just won, what, $500 billion I think it was that they're investing. It's like there's a Saudi Arabia's like oh yeah we're in I think for a couple of like it was a crazy amount of money. I think it was even more than it might have been a trillion.

I mean, it was crazy money, like, oh, okay, let's get wheat me or just like the image I read it or whatever it is with the, URL. Okay. I don't see that. Oh, do I even follow you? Probably not, because you're a bastard, gene. He's like, do I want to know what the unrelenting. I see it here. I mean, I already did this. Oh, there. Yes. Yeah. You did. You certainly did. This is right there. Nothing really anything that shows slash donate right. That's what we want.

That's you redirect directly to the donate page I like that. What what other page do people. It's got 42, views. All for about three seconds apiece. Right. That's what I found with any of the stuff on there. People will go play and then go, oh, wait, it's not the girl on the picture. It's. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's all about talking. Let's, This bait and switch. Bait and switch. Let me give you the latest.

So here, I'll add that right to that same thread here on, on X. How do you think that did as far as I did it, the, you know, the face a little off there, maybe it's because it's such a smaller but not bad. I went to same girl, red dress, knee high boots. Yeah. Sure enough, it's keeping a consistent character. Really? That's good. That's. It's better than it used to be. Them. Way better way. But yeah, I mean, CSB should be sitting at home and in its glory because it's all I talk all the time.

It it's nonstop. I nonstop all the time. And where's the other emotional set? I added it right under to the thread where it was with the with the donate. I mean, I can put it in the back room. That's fine. That's fine where everybody is. Yeah. Having fun. Yeah. Hooker boots on her, though for some reason I said knee high boots. That's what that obviously, that is exactly what the I likes. That's definitely not what they. Yeah. Like that's where you like the eye. Of course the boots.

That's always great. That's the, It's the look. Yeah. More of a smirk or smile this time round actually looks less attractive. She went from, like, being a eight and a half to being like a six and a half. Yeah. Jeans like that. It's tough to stop the look. It's it's it's a psychotic smile. This less less of that. It's definitely less attractive in that image than, than in the first one.

This is the beauty of being able to keep a cancer distant character, because now the eye is you're like, oh, you did a line up that they don't. They're similar, but not identical, which mean people aren't identical. When you take one picture in another, it's not like, oh, it's it's she looks exactly the same. Yeah. I would delete that red dress picture again, turn people off. So like it's an ugly girl. That's, Yeah, it is like the escape, the ugly. Well, that's what unrelenting is all about.

I'm sure that's the the prompt you used when you put that in as well. Go for it. Yes. I would like you take this photo of, attractive 25 year old and turn it skanky for me, please. Is a perfect, perfect. That looks great. Yeah. Yeah. Well, what, I wonder? I haven't tried to asking it to do the a guy with a beard. As long as I do, you actually pay for this thing? Yeah, it's a 20 bucks a month. Okay. You're not on the free plan. Yeah. No.

Okay. No, no, I CSP got me hooked out of it, and I never cancel because it it's still the best thing that I found. So he gets you to spend money on it. Yeah. And then paid you for a couple of months of that. And then you kept paying after that. Yeah. Well, mainly because. Or does he still pay your bill? No, no, I've been paying it because it does. For what? It saves me 20 bucks a month just doing the chapters for random thoughts and doing the, you know, the little blurbs for those shows.

It's well worth 20 bucks a month. It's worth five bucks a week for you just to be able to punch in your transcript and get chapters for this show I use it for, or does it provide the chapters in the correct format for this show? Yeah, I know your other ones didn't. Yeah. What do you mean in the correct format, the format that that you know, that you need for that file for the does all of them do. Jason's okay. That's exactly one thing that, I didn't think the Adobe software did.

No. Adobe doesn't. That's what I'm referring to. Yeah, well, Adobe doesn't have AI in, I thought they did. No, it just does. Transcripts. Oh, okay. Okay, okay, so I have to. I could do the transcribe with the Adobe software and then feed that into the AI, which will use that transcript. Okay. To create the chapters to come up with a blurb saying, hey, listen, this is what he talks about. And also for of course, the does anyone ever read those?

Because I don't, I don't know, I mean, I don't think usually to something usually just for sure, you know, whatever the images of the latest episode and then start listening. I don't pay attention to the screen after that. Quite often. The, in the little blurb, which is mainly for SEO, for people to hit the page if they're searching for stuff. There's a lot of times I will put in is anybody reading?

Listen to my separate said, hey, we're up to 55 views of people clicking and thinking there's a Tik-Tok thing and then leaving right away. Speaking of 55, I will turn 55 on April 8th. So if you want to say donation big donate. It's a good reminder for people. Darren, it's going to be 55. I can't drive 55 fifth. Yeah, they should take your license with they. So they're they're, What are you asking for? $55 donations, I think so, I think only $55 donations across $5 donations or 555 sets.

Yeah, well, how about 555, dollars, $555.55. Okay, well, you might get $5.55 maybe, but that to all five running the fives. Yeah. Double five, 555, quadruple five a lot of five a lot of fun. You know. You know that's kind of an Asian pronunciation there when you say five instead of five. Yeah I mean hey actually we just need that big donor come in with the birthday donation. How about $4,870 for 870? That is the birthday. Come in with that. Wow, that was your time to shine.

How many stars is that? The. That would be a lot of sets. And I need to get some more channels open because the father was trying to send me some stats. As I mentioned, your two fold, you got so many stats you don't know what to do with. Well, I asked again. I only had channels that are 333,000 500,000 up to a million. Yeah, a million is usually the minimum you should open a channel for. Yeah. I asked, one of the eyes earlier, like, what is the ultimate or optimal size for a lightning channel?

And it's like, yeah, nothing other 4 million dude. Yeah. Like that's a lot of sense. Not really. Okay. Well send me 4 million stats gene and I will then open up the channels and I'll give you those 4 million. So I had a 4 million channel. I had multiple ones open to me. Let's do it I'll open to you. We'll see. Yeah. Not opening them it that way. You know I said to me not from me. I said to me, right. That's different because you're not putting the money in the open though.

No, I just paid like ten bucks and they open up a channel. So I just have to do is ask, Adam and Dave over some indexed them, because I can do it. He's done it for too many people. He's done doing it, but he likes me. He doesn't like you cheat. I mean, I didn't mean to break that to you. Yes. And the CSB and the Rock and roll pre-show, the CSB, like, right at the end of the show because he knows I read the stuff. The message you said was fuck you curry. I is not parlor trick place. I'll read it.

I mean whatever you put in there. Then I play that Ted Nugent kiss my ass is a response saying that, Adam requests that I'm like, CSB knows it was too quick, was too quick to, to get a request. But yeah. CSB, if you want to send any messages that are lewd, just add a few zeros. Yeah. I mean, it's, I think it kind of went from Adam actually thinking that dude, now it's like a run on gag. Yes. And you can buy channels from Lsps. What this is.

Yeah, yeah, that's why I said I just paid money for it to get a channel, and they. It was like a 5 million channel or something. Get a big number. Get a big old pipe that way bigger than this. All the money I had in there, or that you made in the entirety of the. Well, yeah. I mean, it's they were taking more money out per employee of that. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. That's why I said they mean I was bitching to Adam about this, like he was the one who recommended them.

Right? Well, I guess he he must like. It's probably not his fault because he he thought I would actually get donations coming in, right that. See, there's the other dude. I like your show. Yeah, because I spent I was with those guys for three years. 20, either 20 or 25 months, let's say 20. Let's give them the benefit of the doubt. So that's $240 a year for three years.

So that's about $750, right? 720. And, I got about $1,000 total in donations or whatever you want to call it, money coming in there some. It wasn't from donations, somewhat from gambling websites, but, you know, so I basically took $1,000 of, of money and I paid 720 out of that to the company that was hosting. And it was very nice to you. Right. Just flat paid out. So that leaves, what, about $300? Right. Less than that. And of the $280 that were left, they stole about two thirds of that.

And you got the other third who did. That was my three year experiment in, in doing, that he'd been sitting on my, node right now just needing to be collected. Yeah. So his $392 worth of assets. There you go. So it's a and I think that went up by about 90 and now it's dying because, crypto's dying again.

Yeah. Yeah. But the point is it's a great service that cost me roughly exactly what I got as a result of it when I showed them off the get go is just not jump on this and this, parlor trick of a bandwagon called SATs. Yeah. To get your own node, baby. Roll it. Yes, I had my own. No, that's the point. Yeah, but you were paying for it rather than. Yeah, doing the software on some hardware that you already owned running at 24. I did that too. That crushed me. I was the problem.

That's why I started paying somebody else to do it, because my original node that I set up myself crashed. I lost, 200 drives on that raid. And so that that's gone,

Ukraine-Russia Pipeline Politics: Following the Oil

I just donations for $3.33 come in. But it's for Planet Rage. So, yeah, they. And then, you know, every time you're going to mention plant rage, I'm going to start charging some sense. Planet restarts fertilizing. It's an ad for a different show, Planet Rage, that show we should. Exactly. And we should. We should be charging them for advertising fees. I know we have a very high, cume on the, just to good old boys, show as well. So we have to highlight a cume. Accumulative baby the stats.

You got to get a, the stats you got to get. Oh, we don't get any stats for that show. No, no, that said, we get dollars. What are those stats? Us money currency. Is that worth anything still? Well, I'm more in the stats parently. Yeah, I know gold just keeps going up. I'm like, damn it, I wanted to buy something like Gold's going up, the US dollars going down. How many times I have to say it. Yeah. But it's still the same kind of thing, isn't it? Not really.

I mean, the gold is not going up in other countries. It's only going up here. Just wait. What's the it's not just too good old boys.com. What's the URL? Just to good old boys.com just to good old boys.com fail to connect. You refused to connect. Oh. Oh refused. That's different. Yeah. That sounds more like the kind of thing grok would say. Yeah, I would that I have it spelled right. Just too good. Old boys.com. All right. Let me check it out.

And it says maybe somebody forgot to pay their bill then refuse to connect. Ben. Dude, they Ben named Ben. Are you listening? Ben. He's scrambling right now for his credit card I know, right I know that was it, man. Works fine for me. Dude. It's only not working for you. Just. It's not right. You just know that, right? There's a 212. Yeah. Good old boys.com. Just two good old boys. Dot com. Is there something before that? I mean, why don't I just send you the the link that will do that.

There you go. Just two good old boys.com. I'll click on that. That's UK. That work. That's weird How much. But it's and I'm here's the thing I'm flipping back and forth between the two and that was saying things correctly. So really know what. Oh that's that is you believe that shows the 3 or 111 episodes? Not as much as I believe this is at 149, but it's catching up is my point is, you're missing too many hospital episodes. Yeah, but, Ben, he's going to get tired of you soon.

Soon. The I it's you the I he's like, if you notice I'm tired of me for the last two years barely talks these shows anymore. He's he's an I now bet is not even real. That's right. Yeah. The latest show of just two good old boys, 111 is about the Ukraine conflict resembling a Slavic civil war, with family ties across both countries preventing total dehumanization. Modern warfare is transformed with $1,600 drones, effectively neutralizing $100,000 weapons systems. Yeah, the drones thing.

I didn't buy it is this what is this reality going on with? Is it? My first guess would be it's Ukraine attacking its own shit with drones and say it's Russia, it's Russia. What's going on here right now? The red, the flags. The red flags are, like, all over the place. It's funny because normally you can kind of figure out the who benefits the most. Right? Both countries benefit from false flags right now. True. Like, literally, it doesn't.

It doesn't matter who you assign blame to because both countries benefit. It's all about bringing the money in from the EU and from the USA. Well, this is funny. One of the latest blurbs that I heard from the EU, you know, after all the posturing and the meetings with the, the, what do they call it? The, the something of the willing, the, the group of the willing, wherever the hell are you call it?

Basically pointing out the fact that the U.S is not willing to actually keep sending money to Ukraine, the, alliance of the winning of the willing, whatever the hell they call themselves, which is France, the UK and Germany, I guess they, they just gave another 2 billion to Ukraine, which, you know, clearly their taxpayers don't care about. And but they've completely pulled back on the idea of peacekeepers in Ukraine.

They're like, well, we're going to station peacekeepers across the Russian border in other countries. But what about Ukraine? Too hot. There's actual war going on, so we're not going to keep any peace there. It's very inconvenient to try to keep the peace where there is no. It's better to have. Yeah, it's better to have peacekeepers in Poland, I think, than the Ukraine. Well, the further away they are, the better for them. Yeah, certainly.

And and then Zelensky responded by saying, yeah, don't worry, because, we're not really all that interested in having your peacekeepers in Lviv, which, you know, is on the other side of Ukraine, right next to Poland there. So he is being snarky with everybody who gives him money, not just the United States insistence, snark. He does seem like a dick. Well, but, you know, a lot of that is cocaine.

I think one thing that his time in the spotlight and he is a performer at heart is is an actor always has been, realizes that his time in the spotlight is coming to an end now, you know, until he became the president of Ukraine, he was a, in the Moscow circus for many, many years, but took a job if he can get it. Yeah, yeah, mostly had to dress as a woman that time, but. Oh, he would he like that? I kind of thought he did because he seemed to act like he did. I mean, if you're getting paid.

Well, I mean. Hey. Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, he's getting all the alimony there. You we updated that, in the back channel just for you. Is that. Oh, that's nice, that's nice. Should I update the live stream?

Irish Adventures: The Land of Spiders

I did, but her shirt doesn't say unrelenting. Dude, you got to have the shirt, too. I guess that's still the red dress. I didn't add that. Yeah, you're dead. Do put it back to the t shirt. And with that, the hat looks good. Was like, okay, that's good. That looks like red square, baby. Does look like it. Yeah. This is the beauty of the eye photo realism. We are new, but a more or less an ism. It could be exactly the thing we go with moving forward for album art.

This, I think I like that I am, in fact, what's wrong with just having an attractive babe on their album every week and a new one every week. And you want the same one every week? Well, a different one every week. It's a bevy of babes listening to guys like the redhead, some guys like the blond chick, some guys like the, you know, you can pay more to get the cover of your choice. It's, didn't used to be in this business before. Anyway. Which means selling babe photos.

Well, yeah, I owned it originally. I'm sure it's long gone now. I own the domain pinup models.com, and really, I got it. Yeah, let it go away. Porno days. That's right. Well, work for, like, 4 or 5 Playboy playmates putting their states up when they tried to make money outside of Playboy. Yeah, and I'm telling you, that is when you saw how the corporate world worked. Because they would crush these girls as quickly as bugs. Yep. Like, do not. You can't even say you were a playmate.

We own that word. You can't use the bunny logo. You can't do anything that even sounds like it might be Playboy. I'm like, damn, man. And then that whole thing that was like the original photo that I shot of, Playboy Playmate. That was, sitting at a old fashioned school desk, and looking at the Energizer Bunny, walking by on the floor with, you know, a very kind of hair falling back and, finger touching your lips kind of. Look, that's a good look.

And the eyes looking downward, downcast eyes with a half smile at the energizer bunny. You might be getting a good job describing this photo. No, I think you could describe that to grok. And you need to see the photo. I could probably find it somewhere. I've gotta live somewhere. You can see what that comes out. I have the, I know I have, I know I, I need to find this good some point, digitize it. But I have a cassette. Micro cassette from our answering machine.

Back from when there was the playmate. The one chick, like, went, like, fucking nuts and, well, some fucking. By the way, chopper, you know, it was originally like, hey, I only what it was. I don't remember the exact amounts of money like to bring her friends in, you know, and then her site was free. Of course, the one she brought in was, you know, something like 50 or 100 bucks apiece.

And then all of a sudden, she wanted 500, and I'm like, no. And then I just took her website down and she went, fucking ape. It was hilarious. You are kind of a very vindictive bitch. Yes, yes. Yeah. So the Irish in this one, the Irish comes in exactly what I started to think it's like. That's right. He is Irish. Oh, you want to fuck with me? Do? Yeah. I'll show you what's fucking. Yeah. Give me another 2 or 3. I said the one comic that we pulled a clip of for Planet Rage.

Planet Rage, that show that whiskey was, anger trapped in a warehouse. That's the Irish. Yeah, yeah, that, the Irish like. But it totally like you were being completely unfair. But the lawyers got involved. It was growing. It was really. The lawyers got involved. Yeah. Back in the day. Yeah, it was fun. Oh. Crazy stuff. Yeah. So you're like the original, creator of only fans? Yeah. If only I would have realized where this could have gone. I could have a lot more money and not be podcasting.

That's right. But you could still be podcast. True. Yeah. Holy shit. It's 71 degrees out. It was like 40 this morning. We're getting like Austin type whether you are. Yeah. Which means we have to turn the air conditioning on at some point because, it's 65 here. So that really it is warmer here than in Austin. Is that crazy? I'll take the 65 as long as I can get it. Because I know the summer is going to be long and the snake likes it. You can leave the windows open.

Yeah, yeah, the snake does like the heat. It's it. It's snake. Like the heat and the humidity. Well, you're in the right place. It's not that humid here, Houston. Now that would be humid Houston in Houston. Did you watch the video of the OnlyFans model? If it was, somebody broke into her house. The video I posted earlier today. No, I was, but I didn't really see anything from today, but.

Oh, I think I posted it to actually, I'm pretty sure I did, but it's, so Amouranth, who is a very famous Twitch streamer and OnlyFans model, you've seen her before. She's well-endowed. If you say so. I do not watch anything. I mean, I haven't even seen videos of her before. So you've definitely seen her before. But anyway, amouranth, was robbed and, Well, attempted robbery, armed attempted robbery in her house in the middle of the night.

These three black dudes broke in, and I only say black for context purposes. And, they broke in and with guns, into the house, get into her bedroom where she was sleeping. And I'm guessing she lives in a very nice area. She's a very nice part of Houston. Yeah. And, started pistol whipping her and demanding to get access to her Bitcoin van. Okay, so one very targeted. And two, where was the security system not to warn you that people were in your house?

Man, I would have, but the security system was the one filming you. All of this happening so we could watch it later. Oh, I gotcha, yeah. Which is why she also got accused of faking it. They don't know who I was. I'm pretty sure she wasn't faking it. Like, not the first time a woman faked it on camera. For the relationship with that. But it, Yeah, yeah. But she, Yeah, I would put a picture of her up on the stream right now, but I don't get sued. We ain't. It's what you do OBS for.

I have obs that's it's streaming right now. You know that. Imagine how much better it would run if that was a, for Mac Studio. It's right now using 5.6% of my CPU on my M2 Mac. And, right now mine is using 16% of the, so it's go figure. And all I have is, the mics running and, browsers. Yeah. And I have OBS. Yeah. Why why did you see the get I said again, wearing a black T, I didn't mean take the hat away and move it out of Moscow.

So I got the same girl wearing the black t shirt with unrelenting that show on there without the other stuff. Yeah. Anyways, so, amaranth, who is a. Yeah, she's, a buxom, attractive, redhead looking chick. No wonder you follow her. And, you know, I was actually first saw her before she was doing OnlyFans. You just on Twitch? I thought maybe you were just stalking her. Yeah, that's what I said, I was watching, I was watching her before. She was, the only fan.

She had a channel. I was watching her every day. Yeah, she lived across the street. My binoculars were fantastic. She lived across the street. I wouldn't get much work them. She would run over with them. Do you want a mirror? I got a check. That's what she became famous. Was. She was the one that brought the hot tub streams to twitch, the hot tub streams which eventually got banned. People being. And everybody started doing hot tub streams.

Yeah, because Twitch's whole thing was like, well, like, we're not a sex company wherever. So you can't just be sitting there in a bikini playing a video game. You can be in a bikini, but only if you're at the beach or you're in the hot tub or in the pool or something, where it makes sense to wear a bikini and video game while being in the hot tub, right?

So she started doing these hot tubs, which is literally an inflatable $200, you know, kiddy pool was a bubbler where she would sit in in little biddy bikinis and then so that she was responsible for bringing that trend. The other one was she would do a thing where when you donate money, she would write your name on her body. Okay. How much of this cost you, Jean?

Armadillos and Leprosy: The Texas Connection

I don't know. And, American Express finally went. Are these legitimate charges? Yeah, exactly. And so, you know, which I thought was a very strange idea, but people seem to like it. She was always covered with a whole bunch of different people's names. And she would just basically write in, you know, nonpermanent marker. Yeah. I was thinking, like, lipstick or something. It's a, branding of some sort.

I think she's used, you know, I think it was just like, non permanent Sharpie instead, like a dry erase mark and something that would come off when you hop in the shower. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, exactly. And, so the numbers that I saw, from her OnlyFans income were somewhere around 7 to 8 million a year, which is not, like super great. But for most people, that's pretty good. It's not bad. It's not bad.

I think the top, chick on OnlyFans was making 20 million a month, just in case anybody's curious, were not making 7 to $8 million per year. Mom, we're down on OnlyFans. If we were, though, we wouldn't make any money. I was gonna say that I was I was you were going to say that was the difference. If we would just go on OnlyFans, that's where the money's at. We could take a part of that pie. Zelensky says America is no longer a neutral actor and is working for Putin.

No God. So it's all falling apart. You know, depending who you believe, I, I don't know that, what? I guess falling apart could be a word, but I think it's finally people are coming to realize that this is basically a Biden project of money laundering of the largest proportion ever done in the US history. So Biden was actually good at something. He accomplished something. At the very least, he he was the biggest money launderer the world has ever seen, even bigger than the Clintons.

Well, I think what you're seeing is the, current leadership in Ukraine doesn't really want peace. It wants they never wanted peace. They know that they want money, that peace. They want to keep on milking this for as long as it will go. Yeah, but you would think the money would be a part of this mineral deal, which is, what allegedly should have, caused this to simmer down, but I don't know. How is that going to make money for him, though?

Well, him personally, it would have to be under the table. You know, he do that. Well, although, I mean, he has you would think over the years have squirreled so much away. That by now you should be ready to just walk away with what you got. Yeah. So yeah, apparently Zelensky's unhappy and he thinks the US is just echoing Russian propaganda, which is again everybody in the left is pulling the same stuff at this point, which is trying to negotiate with Putin.

They think you could walk in and try to negotiate with somebody like say, I'm trying to negotiate with Eugene. Now, if I walk into the room and I'm like, hey, you fucking fat, stupid piece of shit, you know, this is how you're going to start the negotiation. It's like, no, if you want something, it's like, oh, Gene, you're looking good, buddy. I mean, you better listen some way. You been working out.

So this whole thing, you know, this whole concept of like, oh, you're saying nice things about Putin. It's like, well, that's called negotiating. Yeah. Yep. Just so clueless. So. And he admits that Ukraine entered ceasefire talks just because they needed the U.S to resume sharing of financial, you know, money. So he's admitting that there was really never any good faith here.

Nice. Everybody should wake up and, realize that, when Ukraine is now a full subsidy area of the Russian machine, they'll know why it's okay. We tried to help you. We tried. We offered. And the pushing back against the U.S wanting to do a deal with Russia to reopen Nord Stream. Well, he's just afraid that Russia will once again rise, be a part of the Western money system, be able to trade.

You know, I've, I've said for a while that the if it wasn't just merely a point and power revolution move, one would think that the reason that you career Ukraine wanted to have a war with Russia was because Russia was on the very on the verge of shutting down the Ukrainian pipelines, because Nord Stream two was going to go operational. Right?

Because up until Nord Stream one and two, almost all the oil that came out of the former Soviet Union, obviously because Ukraine was a part of the former Soviet Union, and before that it was part of Russia. So obviously their pipelines to Europe went through the flat plains of Ukraine rather than over a more hilly mountain. The terrain would make sense. So when the Soviet Union fell, those pipelines were supplying oil to Eastern Europe.

And over time, as Eastern Europe disappeared and became part of NATO and Western Europe, those same pipelines kept supplying oil to more and more of Europe. But this was neither a, fast, convenient nor a cheap way to transmit oil, because Ukraine essentially was now charging a transit fee for all the oil going to Europe.

And so putting in the Nord Stream pipelines, going directly from Russia to Germany and then supplying Germany and potentially the rest of Europe through Germany, was a much better way and, you know, would have avoided having a transit fee being paid to Ukraine because everybody knew this is not a secret.

I don't think most people would argue with it that not only was Ukraine charging Russia for the transit of the pipeline, but they were also siphoning off a lot of oil out of that pipeline and just plain old stealing it. Gotta suck that pipe, gene. So, yeah. Hey, we could keep going all afternoon, but we can. I mean, we're going to keep going if the two of us are going to keep talking, the stream is going to still be up. We just won't be on the agenda.

Stream down the stream can keep going. Right? And the no, no agenda stream. You're going to get podcasting 2.0. That's right. And Adam Curry helm dope open the big $15 billion lightning channel to Darren on Node. Yeah yeah Darren on the road is the guy you want to open up to there. No no I totally not a scam at all Darren. Oh no that's not it's not a scam. Totally not a scam. Exactly. Is that what you named it out. We are clear.

Yes, we are clear from the no great name for no. Dude, I didn't know that. So if you go looking for me and you want to open up a channel, I like it. Darren. Oh, no. It's like, hey, you can trust Irish, right? Because the Irish have never done anything bad. Did I ever tell you about when I met the guys that ran the Irish sweepstakes? No. That was, one little scam. Yes, it was, it was run out of Costa Rica, of all places. Right. Great. Because that makes perfect sense for the Irish.

Yeah. The Irish sweepstakes, you've everybody's seen that of a certain age. If you can't trust the IRS, they have TV ads. You can. Yeah. I heard people say the wave money back in the 80s. Yeah. Now they just want you to come live on a desolate part of the island. The little islands off of Ireland. Yeah. And they're like, well, we'll help you pay, you know, they'll pay us to make it easy for you to get the house. Do they do they force you to have a name with an O apostrophe?

I don't think so. I think it's open to anybody. But you probably have to leave or something. You're much better off if you're in order to never to leave. Right? Just come on down. Get yourself an Irish property. They. Yeah, yeah, it's, I I've only been to Ireland once, but I thought it was beautiful. Beautiful land. A lot of open spaces everywhere. Now, the problem is, if they're going to be over, immigrate, then it's all going up. That's a problem, you know, because it's not built for it.

That when I was there, there were no black people in Ireland. In fact, if you said a black, they meant somebody who's not a resident. Well, there's, I think it's it's like Irish. And I might be wrong on the town, but I think it was like Letterkenny, one of them. Yeah. Which they're like, it's they're calling it like little Nigeria now. It's been oh my God lately taken over. And you know, it's fine that people want to move around, but it's not like the culture is done.

The vibe man, Ireland was such a nice place. It was when it was all white. Well, it was when there was like, we're not on stream anymore. I, I'm just get only Holy if you're axing. Oh that's right, we are axing still okay jeans is going to get himself kicked off a fact kicked off of exile. Including this in the, recorded show. This is the Post Stream Comedy Hour where we make jokes about everything we say. I know exactly the way. Where were you were in Ireland last? That was oh nine, I think.

Oh, that's convenient. You were in it for nine to go back to, the Emerald Isle. It was beautiful. We went from Dublin to Belfast then all the way. Yeah. To, down was right next to Waterford. Yeah. Love Waterford. It's kind of dirty. Yeah, well, it's it's where they do the, you know, the boats come in in the air. So then we went where the Ring of Kerry on that side. Yeah. That's pretty here. That's where we went straight down and over.

Yeah. Well we were following the country concerts that were there. That's what I was doing the work for the country artist. And she was performing. Yeah. So we basically followed were that, that tour which was going around Ireland. Yeah. Yeah. It was I also did a ring just in the opposite direction. So from Dublin went directly with the western coast of the country and then down, to the, the pretty part down southwest with the, the ring something or other.

Right. That was the Ring of Kerry. That was the where the. Yeah, that was where the bed and breakfast harassed me for the year. Received that I left. Oh, nice. Nice. Because it was a nice place. They said it was a nice place. They said it was beautiful. He said everything was awesome except the place was infested with spiders. That's. That's what maybe they were pets, right? Well, they're like, well, you left the windows open. It's like, well, let's put fucking screens in the window up.

You left them with. That was your fault. It wasn't right until you were there and nobody mentioned, well, don't leave the windows open when you're going out to have the room cooler when you get back, you know. Oh, it hurt the view. It's like, fuck you. There were big central windows with two side windows that open. You could have put screens in the side windows, but I also don't believe unless the outside is just covered with spiders, that the room could have been that bad.

Just, you know, Ireland is famous for its, spider silk industry. I did not know that. Yeah, people think it's wool, but it's not really. Well, it could be because we. I mean, I think we counted, like, 20 something spiders, and some of them were fucking big. They're harmless. What do you care about spiders? Yeah. I just don't want to be sleeping while these things are crawling over me, that's all. Why? I don't know, it's just a phobia. It must be. Spiders did nothing to people whatsoever.

Spiders are looking for bugs. If you're covered with bugs, then I'd be a worried to be worried. If you don't have other bugs on you, then spiders aren't going to bother you. Like we're looking for food. We got into your room, man. What do you got exactly? What do you got? We're here to make sure no bugs are biting you. Writers are very beneficial. That way they kill things that would bite you the more you like. I'm. I'm definitely a fan of spiders.

I think that they're, They're in the category of animals that people don't understand. Make their lives better. Bats is in the same category. Oh, until you start the clue from this Wuhan man, it was those bats, don't you? No, gene. No, no, no, no, those are the anteaters. They're, What is it? The, Not the anthers. What was the other critter dealers? Oh, I'll go home to the Chinese armadillo. That's what it was. And flu. Don't you have plenty of armadillos down in Texas? Yeah.

And they claim that the supposedly you get rabies or some shit from that. Oh, no. You get leprosy from them. Really? I think it's bullshit. I've petted plenty of armadillos. I've never gotten leprosy. Yeah. Now, give me your. C now, that would have been a good ending of the show. Well, and that's why you should have set me up like that. Well, good thing we're recording. So I, I could this the end of the show is going to sound awesome. Change it out. Changes.

I'll do a little work for once and cut out the ending and place what I just said at the end. This is a little leprosy and then out. I like that. Good idea. Yeah I'm producing.
