00:01:33   mhm don't tell you that i do have to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/93">TS</a>]

00:01:35   remember a few things i do have to tell [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/95">TS</a>]

00:01:37   you and MC yeah i think you know when I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/97">TS</a>]

00:01:42   was in high school I couldn't think of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/102">TS</a>]

00:01:44   better job than MC like that seemed to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/104">TS</a>]

00:01:49   me to be the absolute pinnacle if you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/109">TS</a>]

00:01:52   had achieved everything in life you were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/112">TS</a>]

00:01:56   asked to be the MC [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/116">TS</a>]

00:01:58   mhm because the MC is not the talent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/118">TS</a>]

00:02:01   he's not the is not the rookeries not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/121">TS</a>]

00:02:05   that he doesn't own the club AMC shows [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/125">TS</a>]

00:02:09   up in a tuxedo he leaves in a tuxedo [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/129">TS</a>]

00:02:12   but he's there he's at the center of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/132">TS</a>]

00:02:15   everything I really believed that MC was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/135">TS</a>]

00:02:18   the greatest job and as I got older and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/138">TS</a>]

00:02:22   put away childish things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/142">TS</a>]

00:02:24   mm I started to realize that MC is not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/144">TS</a>]

00:02:28   the greatest job i think it can be a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/148">TS</a>]

00:02:31   really good job first of all I know from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/151">TS</a>]

00:02:33   mutual friends of ours that it can be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/153">TS</a>]

00:02:35   weirdly lucrative given me once you get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/155">TS</a>]

00:02:38   good at it like given the amount of work [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/158">TS</a>]

00:02:40   you actually have to do in terms of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/160">TS</a>]

00:02:42   preparation but you gotta do what you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/162">TS</a>]

00:02:44   gotta be careful for the first of all I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/164">TS</a>]

00:02:45   agree with you I think being an MC is is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/165">TS</a>]

00:02:47   awesome and I think it's more pressure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/167">TS</a>]

00:02:48   than most people realize [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/168">TS</a>]

00:02:50   yeah because you have to be at least [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/170">TS</a>]

00:02:51   familiar enough the pill go ladies and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/171">TS</a>]

00:07:06   idea what goes into making that thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/426">TS</a>]

00:07:08   oh right right no you don't want to see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/428">TS</a>]

00:07:18   lot of stuff you understood that it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/438">TS</a>]

00:07:19   going to be I think if one thing one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/439">TS</a>]

00:10:45   situation where like my grandmother was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/645">TS</a>]

00:17:46   point somebody had success and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1066">TS</a>]

00:17:48   their version of the story was accepted [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1068">TS</a>]

00:18:08   different from mine because they will [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1088">TS</a>]

00:18:12   they not only do they accept the kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1092">TS</a>]

00:18:16   a geography but like its kind of crucial [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1096">TS</a>]

00:18:21   its kind of crucial to their own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1101">TS</a>]

00:18:24   identity that some of those stories be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1104">TS</a>]

00:18:50   like you know and learning these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1130">TS</a>]

00:19:10   remember being here in Seattle kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1150">TS</a>]

00:19:13   walking around the bars and the times in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1153">TS</a>]

00:19:17   the towns and listening to people tell [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1157">TS</a>]

00:19:21   their family story in their backstory [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1161">TS</a>]

00:19:24   and realizing that i was in a new world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1164">TS</a>]

00:19:26   because in the grunge ears every kid was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1166">TS</a>]

00:19:33   telling a story about how his family was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1173">TS</a>]

00:19:52   I was young I've always been independent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1192">TS</a>]

00:19:54   that's right and it was part of that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1194">TS</a>]

00:20:16   rare environments like you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1216">TS</a>]

00:20:19   somewhere in southern california and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1219">TS</a>]

00:20:41   they had been punked that whole time and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1241">TS</a>]

00:20:44   part of that story was that they were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1244">TS</a>]

00:20:47   they had been abused they'd raise [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1247">TS</a>]

00:29:21   strong voices right now that are very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1761">TS</a>]

00:29:23   very angry and the part about it that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1763">TS</a>]

00:29:26   think it's kind of a bummer is that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1766">TS</a>]

00:29:27   people people are being actively [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1767">TS</a>]

00:29:32   encouraged to only find a strong voice [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1772">TS</a>]

00:29:35   if they can do it to immediate out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1775">TS</a>]

00:29:37   immediately ally themselves with a group [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1777">TS</a>]

00:29:40   of people there's not that there's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1780">TS</a>]

00:29:42   that much encouragement that icy out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1782">TS</a>]

00:29:44   there to be a singular voice anymore [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1784">TS</a>]

00:29:46   because singular being a singular voice [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1786">TS</a>]

00:29:48   will get you like really smack down at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1788">TS</a>]

00:29:50   this point and I think you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1790">TS</a>]

00:29:52   controversial eyes what almost anybody [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1792">TS</a>]

00:29:55   it's like it was like you're straying [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1795">TS</a>]

00:29:56   too far from the pack i wouldn't want to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1796">TS</a>]

00:29:58   stay politically correct that's that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1798">TS</a>]

00:29:59   22 over simplified but there's there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1799">TS</a>]

00:32:37   roll about the relationship between [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1957">TS</a>]

00:32:39   creativity and drugs and how it how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1959">TS</a>]

00:32:42   would have been that some of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1962">TS</a>]

00:32:43   mistakes we make thinking that the two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1963">TS</a>]

00:32:45   are connected and I get you know I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1965">TS</a>]

00:33:06   you said wives and girlfriends [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1986">TS</a>]

00:33:09   contribute to the problem because that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1989">TS</a>]

00:33:14   implies that women can't be musicians [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1994">TS</a>]

00:33:16   and all of this is in a tweet right and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/1996">TS</a>]

00:33:22   what wasn't overt in the article that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2002">TS</a>]

00:33:27   wrote was that i was writing it in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2007">TS</a>]

00:33:35   drinking and drugging herself to death [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2015">TS</a>]

00:33:38   and everybody in town knew it she's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2018">TS</a>]

00:33:42   famous musician she was killing herself [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2022">TS</a>]

00:33:50   with her in a bar and watched as people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2030">TS</a>]

00:33:53   all around her including a lot of rock [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2033">TS</a>]

00:33:56   stars who had seen their friends die [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2036">TS</a>]

00:33:58   they were all facilitating this drug [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2038">TS</a>]

00:34:04   problem because everybody's too [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2044">TS</a>]

00:34:07   embarrassed to address it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2047">TS</a>]

00:34:10   and also it's not cool and also oh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2050">TS</a>]

00:34:15   that's just how how she is how blank ins [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2055">TS</a>]

00:34:20   whatever and so I wrote this article [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2060">TS</a>]

00:34:35   like can we not save this person and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2075">TS</a>]

00:34:38   article was obvious enough to people in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2078">TS</a>]

00:34:40   Seattle that I got a few phone calls [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2080">TS</a>]

00:34:42   from also other rock musicians who were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2082">TS</a>]

00:35:21   she felt and I have no idea how old this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2121">TS</a>]

00:35:23   person is she could be 20 she could be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2123">TS</a>]

00:35:24   50 but she felt her job as a reader was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2124">TS</a>]

00:35:32   to detect the two was too [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2132">TS</a>]

00:35:38   was it her antenna were so sensitive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2138">TS</a>]

00:35:42   that she found this moment in the piece [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2142">TS</a>]

00:35:46   where I said wives and girlfriends and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2146">TS</a>]

00:35:49   her alarm bells went off and she needed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2149">TS</a>]

00:35:51   to alert me to that and needed basically [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2151">TS</a>]

00:35:56   to say I see this and you need to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2156">TS</a>]

00:36:03   never use wives and girlfriends again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2163">TS</a>]

00:36:06   without also saying husbands and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2166">TS</a>]

00:36:07   boyfriends or without also stipulating [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2167">TS</a>]

00:36:10   that that females can be musicians to or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2170">TS</a>]

00:36:12   without also you know like you didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2172">TS</a>]

00:36:39   about a female musician and that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2199">TS</a>]

00:36:42   degree to which I masked that was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2202">TS</a>]

00:39:13   somebody about what it is that they want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2353">TS</a>]

00:39:22   a thing i don't like doing but by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2362">TS</a>]

00:39:24   choosing not to do that it makes it seem [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2364">TS</a>]

00:39:25   like I'm a mute member of this class of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2365">TS</a>]

00:39:36   people are really complicated problem [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2376">TS</a>]

00:39:37   and to say something interesting about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2377">TS</a>]

00:39:39   anything you have to have the right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2379">TS</a>]

00:39:40   amount of introspection and specificity [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2380">TS</a>]

00:39:45   and you have to talk about a thing at a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2385">TS</a>]

00:39:46   time when there's a sense what's so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2386">TS</a>]

00:39:48   confusing about this curl is that she or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2388">TS</a>]

00:39:50   her a woman whoever it was that that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2390">TS</a>]

00:40:13   intellectual humility or a place of even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2413">TS</a>]

00:40:15   like I admire you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2415">TS</a>]

00:40:18   her her her tone and her her approach [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2418">TS</a>]

00:40:21   was immediately like for lack of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2421">TS</a>]

00:40:25   better term matriarchal or or like she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2425">TS</a>]

00:40:29   was coming to me with superior wisdom [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2429">TS</a>]

00:40:31   right that she had read something that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2431">TS</a>]

00:40:34   no one else perceived or that i was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2434">TS</a>]

00:40:36   unaware she was revealing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2436">TS</a>]

00:40:46   to reeducation me from a place i mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2446">TS</a>]

00:40:49   and i think backed up by the by the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2449">TS</a>]

00:40:52   authority of the party when i whenever I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2452">TS</a>]

00:40:57   hear that word I because i used to use [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2457">TS</a>]

00:40:59   that word in that same kind of context [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2459">TS</a>]

00:41:02   it was a very common thing in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2462">TS</a>]

00:41:03   liberal community to say for many many [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2463">TS</a>]

00:41:11   natural resources if they're just more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2471">TS</a>]

00:41:12   educated was promised in education and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2472">TS</a>]

00:41:15   the thing is what what people said that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2475">TS</a>]

00:41:17   about you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2477">TS</a>]

00:41:18   like what if people said the problem is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2478">TS</a>]

00:41:19   the thing that you need to understand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2479">TS</a>]

00:41:21   about everything that's wrong with your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2481">TS</a>]

00:41:27   question of Education yeah you just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2487">TS</a>]

00:41:29   information that we have real and so all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2489">TS</a>]

00:41:32   the times you get into an argument at a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2492">TS</a>]

00:41:34   sports bar with some jackass who's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2494">TS</a>]

00:41:36   trying to tell you that the kids [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2496">TS</a>]

00:41:43   chemtrails well it but really just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2503">TS</a>]

00:41:45   anything that you believe when you as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2505">TS</a>]

00:41:47   soon as you start telling people that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2507">TS</a>]

00:41:48   it's a matter of education I think you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2508">TS</a>]

00:41:50   lose a little bit of your intellectual [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2510">TS</a>]

00:41:51   authority because at that point you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2511">TS</a>]

00:41:53   what you're saying is I will sit here [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2513">TS</a>]

00:41:55   and and patiently listen to what you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2515">TS</a>]

00:41:57   have to say until I get the opportunity [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2517">TS</a>]

00:41:59   to show you how you are fundamentally [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2519">TS</a>]

00:42:01   wrong and that you will never be able to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2521">TS</a>]

00:42:03   advance intellectually until you accept [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2523">TS</a>]

00:42:06   what it is that I know is true it's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2526">TS</a>]

00:42:09   a matter of education but 22 sounds like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2529">TS</a>]

00:42:11   fucking Pol Pot the 20 books that i have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2531">TS</a>]

00:42:13   read from the age of sixteen to twenty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2533">TS</a>]

00:42:16   eleven by the same author the sum of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2536">TS</a>]

00:42:20   some of which were in a my high school [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2540">TS</a>]

00:42:22   syllabus some of them were my college [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2542">TS</a>]

00:42:24   syllabus some of them i found through [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2544">TS</a>]

00:42:27   friends but those you know 20 to 30 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2547">TS</a>]

00:42:29   books that i have really your red and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2549">TS</a>]

00:42:32   digested are the sum total of human [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2552">TS</a>]

00:42:34   knowledge and the 20 or 30 books that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2554">TS</a>]

00:42:37   you've read some of which overlap mine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2557">TS</a>]

00:42:39   probably a lot of them do we both [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2559">TS</a>]

00:42:42   probably read The Great Gatsby [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2562">TS</a>]

00:42:46   so let's say you know the thirty percent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2566">TS</a>]

00:42:49   of the books of the 20 to 30 books that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2569">TS</a>]

00:42:51   you've read uh and and also your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2571">TS</a>]

00:42:54   intellectual process in digesting them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2574">TS</a>]

00:42:56   somehow led you so astray [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2576">TS</a>]

00:42:59   whereas the 20 to 30 books that I've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2579">TS</a>]

00:43:00   read have given me this like this like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2580">TS</a>]

00:43:03   diamond tip insight into the whole human [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2583">TS</a>]

00:43:06   condition [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2586">TS</a>]

00:43:08   I I let me do one of the things that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2588">TS</a>]

00:43:11   there with what that person said which I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2591">TS</a>]

00:43:13   mean I can understand that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2593">TS</a>]

00:43:14   I mean if I have somebody I mean as much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2594">TS</a>]

00:43:16   as we kid and stuff on here when people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2596">TS</a>]

00:43:18   say like super like racially offensive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2598">TS</a>]

00:43:19   things and are obviously like just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2599">TS</a>]

00:43:21   dropping dropping science on you about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2601">TS</a>]

00:43:23   how the world is and that bugs me you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2603">TS</a>]

00:43:25   know i don't want to be around that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2605">TS</a>]

00:43:27   sure but you know first of all I'm not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2607">TS</a>]

00:43:29   sure what I can do to necessarily turn [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2609">TS</a>]

00:43:31   that person around that I've never met [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2611">TS</a>]

00:43:32   but you know what with what that woman [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2612">TS</a>]

00:43:34   said i would be even though i would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2614">TS</a>]

00:43:36   never do this publicly but I would be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2616">TS</a>]

00:43:38   inclined to say so you decided you don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2618">TS</a>]

00:43:40   want to write songs for being a band [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2620">TS</a>]

00:43:41   because of what i said well no of course [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2621">TS</a>]

00:43:43   not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2623">TS</a>]

00:43:43   okay why is that well because I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2623">TS</a>]

00:43:45   smarter than that I know okay so you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2625">TS</a>]

00:43:47   assume that all these other people that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2627">TS</a>]

00:43:49   you theoretically care about this mass [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2629">TS</a>]

00:43:51   of people that are so stupid and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2631">TS</a>]

00:43:53   malleable that these words that I chosen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2633">TS</a>]

00:43:55   this ese are going to make them not want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2635">TS</a>]

00:43:57   to start a band is that is that the case [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2637">TS</a>]

00:43:59   that you're going to make because all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2639">TS</a>]

00:44:00   the sudden now you're the one who's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2640">TS</a>]

00:44:02   smarter than all these other people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2642">TS</a>]

00:44:03   because you see you see through the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2643">TS</a>]

00:44:05   matrix right you that they live thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2645">TS</a>]

00:44:07   where you've got the sunglasses right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2647">TS</a>]

00:44:09   and that's what i think is actually it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2649">TS</a>]

00:44:11   a little it's a little bit offensive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2651">TS</a>]

00:44:12   because you get to pick and choose like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2652">TS</a>]

00:44:14   who you get to decide you're smarter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2654">TS</a>]

00:44:15   than and it's really just a question of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2655">TS</a>]

00:44:16   going in educating everybody about all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2656">TS</a>]

00:44:18   these little people that need to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2658">TS</a>]

00:44:19   looked after in this completely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2659">TS</a>]

00:44:20   paternalistic way this is what's so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2660">TS</a>]

00:44:23   interesting about what's happening in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2663">TS</a>]

00:48:12   the French language to stay intact as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2892">TS</a>]

00:48:13   part of that for sure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2893">TS</a>]

00:49:03   aside but actually we welcome the Jews [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2943">TS</a>]

00:49:06   now still a little weird on the gypsies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2946">TS</a>]

00:49:08   but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2948">TS</a>]

00:49:12   as as successive waves of people have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2952">TS</a>]

00:49:14   emigrated from North Africa now all of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2954">TS</a>]

00:49:17   sudden they're these gigantic ghettos [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2957">TS</a>]

00:49:19   where the population is largely arab and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2959">TS</a>]

00:49:26   muslim and so the French have been going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2966">TS</a>]

00:49:30   through this whole uh this this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2970">TS</a>]

00:49:33   incredible identity like the national [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2973">TS</a>]

00:49:36   cultural identity problem where they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2976">TS</a>]

00:49:38   like well we can't have people walking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2978">TS</a>]

00:49:39   around in burkas because it's not French [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2979">TS</a>]

00:49:42   it isn't a question of that we are a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2982">TS</a>]

00:49:46   racist against Muslims or anti-muslim [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2986">TS</a>]

00:49:50   but but the goal in France is that we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2990">TS</a>]

00:49:52   all be French it is how we manage [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2992">TS</a>]

00:49:57   equality it is our whole idea of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2997">TS</a>]

00:49:59   equality that we all be not the same but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/2999">TS</a>]

00:50:04   that we share the same values that but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3004">TS</a>]

00:50:07   that we all be primarily French right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3007">TS</a>]

00:50:09   now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3009">TS</a>]

00:50:09   well that we share these cause these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3009">TS</a>]

00:50:12   core values which are you know this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3012">TS</a>]

00:50:18   kind of it that there's a similar [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3018">TS</a>]

00:50:20   argument happening in America except we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3020">TS</a>]

00:50:22   don't share core values here but there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3022">TS</a>]

00:50:26   they have these core democratic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3026">TS</a>]

00:50:28   post-revolution values they they think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3028">TS</a>]

00:50:32   they do or they it's their values are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3032">TS</a>]

00:50:35   are are closer to the heart of the idea [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3035">TS</a>]

00:50:40   of themselves this shared sense of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3040">TS</a>]

00:50:43   values and it's you know it is a at well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3043">TS</a>]

00:50:48   so it has driven them now to pass a law [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3048">TS</a>]

00:50:50   against wearing burkas and from an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3050">TS</a>]

00:50:53   American sensibility we're you know that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3053">TS</a>]

00:50:57   law that that you can't wear a burka in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3057">TS</a>]

00:50:59   France and in a public school or in a in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3059">TS</a>]

00:51:02   an office like a government office we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3062">TS</a>]

00:51:08   just Americans freak out at the notion [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3068">TS</a>]

00:51:13   and it seems very paternalistic and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3073">TS</a>]

00:51:15   seems very racist [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3075">TS</a>]

00:51:18   it seems i want a paternalistic it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3078">TS</a>]

00:51:21   totalitarian right to tell taryn but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3081">TS</a>]

00:51:24   from the French standpoint it is like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3084">TS</a>]

00:51:30   they are trying to us it its full from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3090">TS</a>]

00:51:33   the French idea it is a very liberal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3093">TS</a>]

00:51:35   idea this is what's confusing the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3095">TS</a>]

00:51:38   liberal notion of like French liberalism [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3098">TS</a>]

00:51:41   requires that everybody aspire to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3101">TS</a>]

00:51:45   part of this family and to be outside of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3105">TS</a>]

00:51:50   it seems to them to be a active [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3110">TS</a>]

00:51:56   totalitarianism or to be an act of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3116">TS</a>]

00:51:58   hostility that threatens the whole that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3118">TS</a>]

00:52:05   threatens the safety of their of them of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3125">TS</a>]

00:52:11   their melting pot right if you don't if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3131">TS</a>]

00:52:13   you don't want to melt into being French [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3133">TS</a>]

00:52:16   like being French is at is at the key of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3136">TS</a>]

00:52:21   having all the rights of man that that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3141">TS</a>]

00:52:25   that that you can bend therefore not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3145">TS</a>]

00:52:27   expect like you can't expect the rights [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3147">TS</a>]

00:52:30   if you don't also perform the duties and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3150">TS</a>]

00:52:36   so they're so their culture is at war [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3156">TS</a>]

00:52:41   with itself right now it's tearing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3161">TS</a>]

00:52:42   itself apart and it is it it's it is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3162">TS</a>]

00:52:46   it's very interesting to look at it from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3166">TS</a>]

00:52:49   here to look at it from the United [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3169">TS</a>]

00:52:51   States and see that that that there i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3171">TS</a>]

00:52:56   mean obviously like the lepen people the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3176">TS</a>]

00:53:00   be a cultural xenophobes in France are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3180">TS</a>]

00:53:03   are on this issue too but there's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3183">TS</a>]

00:53:07   whole stripe of people that you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3187">TS</a>]

00:53:10   that are coming at this question from a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3190">TS</a>]

00:53:13   liberal democratic perspective there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3193">TS</a>]

00:53:16   that is that's that's very confusing to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3196">TS</a>]

00:53:20   watch from here and very I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3200">TS</a>]

00:53:22   instructive informative [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3202">TS</a>]

00:53:25   yeah I mean I all the lofty ideas are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3205">TS</a>]

00:53:30   it's easy enough to agree on something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3210">TS</a>]

00:53:32   like do you believe in freedom of speech [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3212">TS</a>]

00:53:34   of course everybody agrees and freedom [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3214">TS</a>]

00:53:35   of speech and so you get into the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3215">TS</a>]

00:53:36   specifics of what that really means [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3216">TS</a>]

00:53:39   are you allowed to say things that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3219">TS</a>]

00:53:40   aren't true are you allowed to say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3220">TS</a>]

00:53:42   things that are unkind are you allowed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3222">TS</a>]

00:53:43   to say things that startup hate when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3223">TS</a>]

00:53:45   people are you you know do I you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3225">TS</a>]

00:53:48   the shot fire in a crowded theater [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3228">TS</a>]

00:53:49   yea yea or you know or I think some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3229">TS</a>]

00:53:52   people would say this could go on really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3232">TS</a>]

00:53:54   any end of the spectrum versus the other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3234">TS</a>]

00:53:56   should I be expected to pay to publish [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3236">TS</a>]

00:53:59   speech that I definitely think is is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3239">TS</a>]

00:54:01   hateful or untrue [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3241">TS</a>]

00:54:03   for example do i right you should we be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3243">TS</a>]

00:54:06   paying should we be paying to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3246">TS</a>]

00:54:07   textbooks in our schools that say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3247">TS</a>]

00:54:11   evolution is true [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3251">TS</a>]

00:54:12   should we be paying to have textbooks in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3252">TS</a>]

00:54:14   our school that say that evolution is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3254">TS</a>]

00:54:16   wrong [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3256">TS</a>]

00:54:17   I mean you know that's right that is i'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3257">TS</a>]

00:54:19   probably splitting hairs here but I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3259">TS</a>]

00:54:20   think anybody agrees on those big issues [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3260">TS</a>]

00:54:23   its just its implementation details but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3263">TS</a>]

00:54:25   there where you get all the truth [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3265">TS</a>]

00:54:27   well this is why the Supreme Court of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3267">TS</a>]

00:54:29   the United States and the Congress and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3269">TS</a>]

00:54:32   the presidency were such a what were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3272">TS</a>]

00:54:35   such a brilliant idea and you know the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3275">TS</a>]

00:54:37   idea that the Supreme Court could take a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3277">TS</a>]

00:54:41   law and set limits on aspects of it you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3281">TS</a>]

00:54:48   know that that that that that boat the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3288">TS</a>]

00:54:50   Congress made law it went past the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3290">TS</a>]

00:54:52   President and he got to you know he got [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3292">TS</a>]

00:54:55   to take a swipe at it if he could but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3295">TS</a>]

00:54:59   then the citizens to challenge the law [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3299">TS</a>]

00:55:02   and the court could make a well could [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3302">TS</a>]

00:55:08   the court could rule on beat you on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3308">TS</a>]

00:55:12   behalf of us like the idea that there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3312">TS</a>]

00:55:16   was an us survived until not very long [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3316">TS</a>]

00:55:22   ago and it's it's a it's a thing as a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3322">TS</a>]

00:55:26   historical us [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3326">TS</a>]

00:55:28   well yeah and that that where I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3328">TS</a>]

00:55:30   like when it is not kind of what the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3330">TS</a>]

00:55:31   Supreme Court is it speaking of us but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3331">TS</a>]

00:55:33   its its kind of to say like is this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3333">TS</a>]

00:55:35   this what was intended [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3335">TS</a>]

00:55:37   oh no I mean well you know it that is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3337">TS</a>]

00:55:39   modern problem that the Supreme Court [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3339">TS</a>]

00:55:42   was always meant to be in it was always [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3342">TS</a>]

00:55:45   meant to evolve and the idea that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3345">TS</a>]

00:55:48   founders didn't intend that the court [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3348">TS</a>]

00:55:50   would interpret the conversation in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3350">TS</a>]

00:55:52   modern terms is a crazy conservative [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3352">TS</a>]

00:55:55   reactionary nut story that the same kind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3355">TS</a>]

00:56:00   of people think the Bible was written in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3360">TS</a>]

00:56:02   English yeah right i mean has always had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3362">TS</a>]

00:56:04   the same 66 books it if you've read [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3364">TS</a>]

00:56:07   anything about the founders the Scalia [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3367">TS</a>]

00:56:09   notion that they meant that this you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3369">TS</a>]

00:56:12   know that that that that that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3372">TS</a>]

00:56:15   founders meant that we should try and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3375">TS</a>]

00:56:17   get inside their minds and think about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3377">TS</a>]

00:56:19   what they meant instead of that they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3379">TS</a>]

00:56:21   meant exactly you know that they met [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3381">TS</a>]

00:56:23   what they wrote and that we should be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3383">TS</a>]

00:56:25   like interpreting that but based on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3385">TS</a>]

00:56:28   fact that we now have handheld computers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3388">TS</a>]

00:56:31   in our eyeglasses or III health [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3391">TS</a>]

00:56:33   computers are hey al computer it's um [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3393">TS</a>]

00:56:36   like it it seems crazy to me but no I i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3396">TS</a>]

00:56:39   mean the the evolve and ever-evolving [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3399">TS</a>]

00:56:42   notion that there was an American soul [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3402">TS</a>]

00:56:46   of a kind or that there was an American [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3406">TS</a>]

00:56:48   identity that we were all aspiring to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3408">TS</a>]

00:56:54   melt into was a notion that was still in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3414">TS</a>]

00:56:58   place in a largely in place at least in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3418">TS</a>]

00:57:02   the school's when you and I were kids [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3422">TS</a>]

00:57:05   and it was it was fraying and there were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3425">TS</a>]

00:57:07   obviously there was a there were whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3427">TS</a>]

00:57:09   segments of the population that said [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3429">TS</a>]

00:57:12   we're not even included in that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3432">TS</a>]

00:57:14   never included us in that and we want we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3434">TS</a>]

00:57:18   want entry into it at the time even then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3438">TS</a>]

00:57:23   that it was only the fringe voices that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3443">TS</a>]

00:57:26   said we don't want entry into it we want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3446">TS</a>]

00:57:29   to burn it down [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3449">TS</a>]

00:57:30   we want to tear that identity of park [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3450">TS</a>]

00:57:33   like the vast majority of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3453">TS</a>]

00:57:35   disenfranchised only wanted to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3455">TS</a>]

00:57:37   franchised [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3457">TS</a>]

00:57:39   and it's only in the last time you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3459">TS</a>]

00:57:42   said the same have the same rights that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3462">TS</a>]

00:57:43   anybody else already had to have to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3463">TS</a>]

00:57:45   the same rights and to be included in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3465">TS</a>]

00:57:47   that notion of American and to be and to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3467">TS</a>]

00:57:50   have their voices considered and to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3470">TS</a>]

00:57:53   to just expand the franchise to include [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3473">TS</a>]

00:57:57   everybody that really was already in it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3477">TS</a>]

00:57:59   which is something that the French did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3479">TS</a>]

00:58:01   much better than the Americans did it in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3481">TS</a>]

00:58:05   the sense that they headaches that they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3485">TS</a>]

00:58:07   that that franchise was expanded I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3487">TS</a>]

00:58:10   and obviously like the Dreyfus Affair [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3490">TS</a>]

00:58:11   whenever the that they up through the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3491">TS</a>]

00:58:15   war they were still pretty bad on Jews [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3495">TS</a>]

00:58:18   and and and Roma but the the French of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3498">TS</a>]

00:58:26   it have sought to expand that franchise [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3506">TS</a>]

00:58:28   a lot more liberally than the Americans [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3508">TS</a>]

00:58:30   did but it's only in the last 20 years [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3510">TS</a>]

00:58:33   that that the idea that that this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3513">TS</a>]

00:58:39   american-ness even that that that are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3519">TS</a>]

00:58:42   shared aspirations that a commonality [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3522">TS</a>]

00:58:45   would be something that we would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3525">TS</a>]

00:58:48   disparage and something that an educated [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3528">TS</a>]

00:58:52   liberal person would want no part of and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3532">TS</a>]

00:58:56   would would want would instead choose to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3536">TS</a>]

00:58:59   mock and dried you know that that to sit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3539">TS</a>]

00:59:03   and talk about a like a an American [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3543">TS</a>]

00:59:11   identity to talk about that as something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3551">TS</a>]

00:59:16   that is inherently oppressive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3556">TS</a>]

00:59:19   intrinsically oppressive rather than [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3559">TS</a>]

00:59:23   something that is of a framework that we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3563">TS</a>]

00:59:26   can make that and we should be trying to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3566">TS</a>]

00:59:29   make better always and that making it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3569">TS</a>]

00:59:32   more inclusive is our goal rather than [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3572">TS</a>]

00:59:37   to you know to destroy them to destroy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3577">TS</a>]

00:59:42   the framework in favor of who you are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3582">TS</a>]

00:59:47   implying who are you saying once that or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3587">TS</a>]

00:59:50   has been doing that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3590">TS</a>]

00:59:51   I don't like the far right wing nut [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3591">TS</a>]

00:59:53   types [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3593">TS</a>]

00:59:54   well like going to the compound kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3594">TS</a>]

00:59:56   people I feel like that I feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3596">TS</a>]

00:59:58   there is a huge go to the cops [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3598">TS</a>]

00:59:58   there is a huge go to the cops [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3598">TS</a>]

01:00:00   pound thread in liberalism now although [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3600">TS</a>]

01:00:04   it isn't to the compound it is to a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3604">TS</a>]

01:00:07   place of like a place of hyper [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3607">TS</a>]

01:00:12   multiculturalism to the point that all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3612">TS</a>]

01:00:15   that it is that it's like george bush's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3615">TS</a>]

01:00:18   thousand points of light except that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3618">TS</a>]

01:00:20   thousand points of light is a thousand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3620">TS</a>]

01:00:22   equal viewpoints none of which can be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3622">TS</a>]

01:00:24   privileged over any other so that it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3624">TS</a>]

01:00:28   a so that every voice is heard in equal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3628">TS</a>]

01:00:32   volume and in that constellation of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3632">TS</a>]

01:00:37   voices there will be some collected [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3637">TS</a>]

01:00:40   wisdom there will be some there were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3640">TS</a>]

01:00:43   there will be a common knowledge or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3643">TS</a>]

01:00:45   understanding that we can we cannot know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3645">TS</a>]

01:00:48   yet we cannot know the result of this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3648">TS</a>]

01:00:51   experiment until it we have achieved it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3651">TS</a>]

01:00:54   and to guess at it is to second-guess it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3654">TS</a>]

01:00:59   which is which is to stand in the way of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3659">TS</a>]

01:01:02   it and that are that the only valid goal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3662">TS</a>]

01:01:05   can be a time when all voices are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3665">TS</a>]

01:01:09   represented with with no privilege and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3669">TS</a>]

01:01:14   this is the idea of this of the word [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3674">TS</a>]

01:01:15   privilege can and and and and flinging [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3675">TS</a>]

01:01:18   privilege at people as an epithet that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3678">TS</a>]

01:01:22   this is this is the liberal side of this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3682">TS</a>]

01:01:24   yeah that only when we arrive at a place [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3684">TS</a>]

01:01:26   where no voice has pride of privileged [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3686">TS</a>]

01:02:26   one ever discusses it openly but the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3746">TS</a>]

01:02:28   only premise I can see at the heart of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3748">TS</a>]

01:02:31   it is the idea that only once all voices [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3751">TS</a>]

01:03:28   can exist in one's mind that yes is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3808">TS</a>]

01:03:32   influenced by its by its culture yes is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3812">TS</a>]

01:03:35   influenced by its experience but also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3815">TS</a>]

01:03:37   that's the beautiful thing about an idea [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3817">TS</a>]

01:03:42   with how you were raised with how you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3822">TS</a>]

01:03:45   were how you other the culture in which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3825">TS</a>]

01:03:48   you live it's how ideas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3828">TS</a>]

01:03:51   advertise themselves like I can think of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3831">TS</a>]

01:03:56   opposite of me and that's what makes it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3836">TS</a>]

01:04:01   a thought right and to to argue that my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3841">TS</a>]

01:04:05   thoughts are are all water stamped with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3845">TS</a>]

01:04:10   my race and culture is to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3850">TS</a>]

01:04:15   anti-intellectual I guess [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3855">TS</a>]

01:04:18   at its core and what thats whats in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3858">TS</a>]

01:04:20   that's what's insane about about this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3860">TS</a>]

01:04:23   notion is that ultimately it is it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3863">TS</a>]

01:04:28   anti thinking and it you know it becomes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3868">TS</a>]

01:04:33   like it it's seeking to kill this idea [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3873">TS</a>]

01:04:38   that you can be that there's something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3878">TS</a>]

01:04:41   about being French or about being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3881">TS</a>]

01:04:43   American that is that's worth preserving [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3883">TS</a>]

01:04:47   or that is an identity that that has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3887">TS</a>]

01:04:51   responsibilities as well as rights [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3891">TS</a>]

01:04:54   attended to it that every right has a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3894">TS</a>]

01:04:57   has a concomitant responsibility that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3897">TS</a>]

01:05:01   goes along with it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3901">TS</a>]

01:05:02   hmm i don't know i'm john pretty I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3902">TS</a>]

01:05:08   pretty skeptical about first of all I I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3908">TS</a>]

01:05:11   I feel like if you look at any anytime [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3911">TS</a>]

01:05:15   that people who are in a minority and RB [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3915">TS</a>]

01:05:17   being treated poorly end up getting out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3917">TS</a>]

01:05:20   of that there has to be a period along [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3920">TS</a>]

01:05:22   what did stalin calling you know there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3922">TS</a>]

01:05:25   that period where you at the the shit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3925">TS</a>]

01:05:28   was called the dictatorship of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3928">TS</a>]

01:05:30   proletariat what they called it there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3930">TS</a>]

01:05:33   a period like okay we have the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3933">TS</a>]

01:05:34   dictatorship of the proletariat there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3934">TS</a>]

01:05:35   going to be this period i gotta let you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3935">TS</a>]

01:05:37   guys know things are going to be a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3937">TS</a>]

01:05:39   little bit rough here in the Soviet [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3939">TS</a>]

01:05:41   Union while we make sure that we get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3941">TS</a>]

01:05:43   good and Soviet Union [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3943">TS</a>]

01:05:45   yeah let's say 30 million dead but ok no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3945">TS</a>]

01:05:49   no i'm not i'm not trying to draw that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3949">TS</a>]

01:05:51   line exactly what I'm saying that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3951">TS</a>]

01:05:52   think if you look at any group you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3952">TS</a>]

01:05:53   to be radicalized at some point in order [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3953">TS</a>]

01:05:55   to get noticed and in order to be heard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3955">TS</a>]

01:05:58   in order to attract people to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3958">TS</a>]

01:06:00   understanding hangs this is kind of this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3960">TS</a>]

01:06:02   is real screwed-up people are people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3962">TS</a>]

01:06:04   getting lynched like innocent innocent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3964">TS</a>]

01:06:06   people are being lynched for no reason [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3966">TS</a>]

01:06:09   and like that's it that we have to stop [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3969">TS</a>]

01:06:11   this guy's this is that this is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3971">TS</a>]

01:06:13   terrible thing and so there's a period [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3973">TS</a>]

01:06:14   where you have to set yourself apart and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3974">TS</a>]

01:06:16   and be heard and but I don't know and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3976">TS</a>]

01:06:19   this is maybe this is the privilege [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3979">TS</a>]

01:06:20   talking but I feel like there are there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3980">TS</a>]

01:06:21   are so many people who cannot wait to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3981">TS</a>]

01:06:25   lose their own identity inside of some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3985">TS</a>]

01:06:28   bigger group because that's where they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3988">TS</a>]

01:06:29   feel like they did the identity that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3989">TS</a>]

01:06:31   they seek [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3991">TS</a>]

01:06:31   fine ironically enough is by being in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3991">TS</a>]

01:06:35   the group that's shouting everybody else [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3995">TS</a>]

01:06:36   down and you know is 011 him while I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/3996">TS</a>]

01:06:40   understand I understand I understand and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4000">TS</a>]

01:06:41   respect the need to be heard and have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4001">TS</a>]

01:06:44   your needs redressed however you decide [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4004">TS</a>]

01:06:46   to do it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4006">TS</a>]

01:06:47   I've always I'm always a little bit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4007">TS</a>]

01:06:49   skeptical of people who seem to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4009">TS</a>]

01:06:51   getting addicted to being the underdog [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4011">TS</a>]

01:11:10   we're making the ideas that we're having [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4270">TS</a>]

01:11:32   we're being asked to do is generate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4292">TS</a>]

01:11:33   ideas all we are responsible for is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4293">TS</a>]

01:12:00   when every idea could be in play every [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4320">TS</a>]

01:12:06   single notion is up in the air its it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4326">TS</a>]

01:12:10   a it's a strange impulse and one that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4330">TS</a>]

01:12:14   don't know it's very human but and and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4334">TS</a>]

01:12:18   when you have them we spend your day [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4338">TS</a>]

01:12:20   looking for that grammar of equality [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4340">TS</a>]

01:12:21   something else is gonna happen when you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4341">TS</a>]

01:12:22   talked about before which is the bad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4342">TS</a>]

01:12:24   words problem and so we all we all agree [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4344">TS</a>]

01:12:27   or are compelled to agree that there are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4347">TS</a>]

01:12:29   is this increasing corpus of bad words [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4349">TS</a>]

01:12:31   these things we must never use or we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4351">TS</a>]

01:12:33   must always use Oh bad ideas are are the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4353">TS</a>]

01:12:36   are the real scary thing right but the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4356">TS</a>]

01:12:38   bad ideas and the problems I'm trying to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4358">TS</a>]

01:12:40   get at though is you can continue to to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4360">TS</a>]

01:12:43   your southern sheriff speak around your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4363">TS</a>]

01:12:45   buddies and that's not gonna do a damn [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4365">TS</a>]

01:12:47   thing except you make you feel more and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4367">TS</a>]

01:12:49   more like you're the one who's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4369">TS</a>]

01:12:50   marginalized now it's for everybody [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4370">TS</a>]

01:12:52   are all of our friends over here on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4372">TS</a>]

01:12:54   left side of the dial there are just as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4374">TS</a>]

01:12:56   many people on the other side who are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4376">TS</a>]

01:12:58   just as incredulous about how they've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4378">TS</a>]

01:13:00   been left behind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4380">TS</a>]

01:13:01   yeah and and that just we just keep we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4381">TS</a>]

01:13:03   just keep making that split like broader [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4383">TS</a>]

01:13:05   and broader when we keep saying which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4385">TS</a>]

01:13:08   ideas are ok to think the idea that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4388">TS</a>]

01:13:11   curious to me right now is that football [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4391">TS</a>]

01:13:14   is this terrible crime that we are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4394">TS</a>]

01:13:19   inflicting on football players right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4399">TS</a>]

01:13:22   that football is violent which is like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4402">TS</a>]

01:13:25   new idea i guess to some people that had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4405">TS</a>]

01:13:29   permanently like well yeah and that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4409">TS</a>]

01:13:31   these and that these football players [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4411">TS</a>]

01:13:32   are being for our amusement [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4412">TS</a>]

01:13:38   this is the beginning of every one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4418">TS</a>]

01:13:39   these sort of screens for our for the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4419">TS</a>]

01:13:42   amusement of some rich corporations [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4422">TS</a>]

01:13:44   these football players are being paid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4424">TS</a>]

01:13:48   millions of dollars to hit each other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4428">TS</a>]

01:13:50   really hard and then 20 years later they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4430">TS</a>]

01:13:52   have parkinson's disease and this is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4432">TS</a>]

01:13:54   thing that should be outlawed and it the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4434">TS</a>]

01:13:59   the premise of that argument that this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4439">TS</a>]

01:14:03   is what this is what confuses me it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4443">TS</a>]

01:14:06   like threaded throughout these arguments [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4446">TS</a>]

01:14:12   is a kind of weird it's the same [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4452">TS</a>]

01:14:14   argument that the catholic church uses [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4454">TS</a>]

01:14:17   to fight abortion and the death penalty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4457">TS</a>]

01:14:21   it is the idea that human life is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4461">TS</a>]

01:14:24   somehow sacred above and beyond any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4464">TS</a>]

01:14:28   individual human life and what that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4468">TS</a>]

01:14:30   human life actually is or represents but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4470">TS</a>]

01:14:34   that the I that the that human life [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4474">TS</a>]

01:14:37   capital H capital L is somehow sacred [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4477">TS</a>]

01:14:41   and more important more valuable than it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4481">TS</a>]

01:14:46   might appear to be in any one instance [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4486">TS</a>]

01:14:48   and so the fact that these football [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4488">TS</a>]

01:14:52   players are hurting themselves and that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4492">TS</a>]

01:14:55   they do it knowingly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4495">TS</a>]

01:14:57   and that they do it for great reward and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4497">TS</a>]

01:15:01   that they are heroes and champions but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4501">TS</a>]

01:15:05   then later on the they suffer and maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4505">TS</a>]

01:15:08   when maybe when somebody said to them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4508">TS</a>]

01:15:10   when they were sixteen or twenty like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4510">TS</a>]

01:15:12   you know someday you're going to suffer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4512">TS</a>]

01:15:14   maybe they didn't know exactly what that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4514">TS</a>]

01:15:16   meant and they agreed to something that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4516">TS</a>]

01:15:18   they couldn't I couldn't possibly have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4518">TS</a>]

01:15:20   understood all the way implying that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4520">TS</a>]

01:15:23   people who gave him that money new to a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4523">TS</a>]

01:15:25   pretty good certainty that they were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4525">TS</a>]

01:15:26   going to get right the head injuries are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4526">TS</a>]

01:15:28   some of the people that give him that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4528">TS</a>]

01:15:29   money were like actually relishing that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4529">TS</a>]

01:15:31   one day they were going to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4531">TS</a>]

01:15:33   parkinson's disease but that you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4533">TS</a>]

01:15:37   and I think about this in terms of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4537">TS</a>]

01:15:38   Muhammad Ali one of the great champions [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4538">TS</a>]

01:15:40   of Human of the 20th century and human [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4540">TS</a>]

01:15:43   life and human Muhammad Ali is suffering [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4543">TS</a>]

01:15:45   from from a tremor from Parkinson's and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4545">TS</a>]

01:15:48   a tremor that that we that that kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4548">TS</a>]

01:15:51   shames us and that we wouldn't have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4551">TS</a>]

01:15:52   wished on him he is our hero but would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4552">TS</a>]

01:15:56   anyone have had Muhammad Ali not fight [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4556">TS</a>]

01:16:01   would anyone have asked Muhammad Ali to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4561">TS</a>]

01:16:04   have fought one fight fewer like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4564">TS</a>]

01:16:09   Muhammad Ali fought he was a hero to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4569">TS</a>]

01:16:11   world he's the most recognized name on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4571">TS</a>]

01:16:14   the planet and and in his later years he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4574">TS</a>]

01:16:18   suffers the battle damage and the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4578">TS</a>]

01:16:25   idea that we would put a stop that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4585">TS</a>]

01:16:27   other that we would do anything other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4587">TS</a>]

01:16:28   than celebrate every aspect of it you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4588">TS</a>]

01:16:31   know because the fact is we don't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4591">TS</a>]

01:16:33   if Muhammad Ali had never boxed whether [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4593">TS</a>]

01:16:36   or not he would have gotten Parkinson's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4596">TS</a>]

01:16:37   anyway because we don't understand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4597">TS</a>]

01:16:40   Parkinson's hoo keek you know my my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4600">TS</a>]

01:16:43   grand aunt died of Parkinson's and she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4603">TS</a>]

01:16:45   was never in a boxing match [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4605">TS</a>]

01:16:48   so wait now is you're saying so I'm part [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4608">TS</a>]

01:16:50   of that is that we've got information [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4610">TS</a>]

01:16:51   that we didn't have 4050 years ago I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4611">TS</a>]

01:16:55   sorts of things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4615">TS</a>]

01:16:56   yes you complete using you're saying it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4616">TS</a>]

01:16:58   retroactive continuity let's go back and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4618">TS</a>]

01:17:00   sort of let that's all collectively [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4620">TS</a>]

01:17:02   disparage what boxing has done over the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4622">TS</a>]

01:17:05   years in order to make sure it never [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4625">TS</a>]

01:17:06   happens again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4626">TS</a>]

01:17:07   are you saying it so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4627">TS</a>]

01:17:09   I'm but yeah you don't think that we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4629">TS</a>]

01:17:11   should take the information we know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4631">TS</a>]

01:17:12   about things like traumatic brain injury [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4632">TS</a>]

01:17:14   and try to prevent it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4634">TS</a>]

01:17:15   well I don't have heavier guys hitting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4635">TS</a>]

01:17:19   harder you know I would see what seems [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4639">TS</a>]

01:17:22   to me is that I me know when i'm in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4642">TS</a>]

01:17:25   brooklyn now and every kid under the age [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4645">TS</a>]

01:17:41   know about traumatic brain injury and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4661">TS</a>]

01:17:43   how dangerous the world is like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4663">TS</a>]

01:17:46   ultimately the world is dangerous human [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4666">TS</a>]

01:17:50   life is nasty brutish and short we not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4670">TS</a>]

01:17:53   one of us dies the way we would want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4673">TS</a>]

01:17:56   there is no way for us to live forever [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4676">TS</a>]

01:18:01   there is no way for us to escape disease [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4681">TS</a>]

01:18:04   there is no way for us to escape injury [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4684">TS</a>]

01:18:08   and yet in these certain pockets of of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4688">TS</a>]

01:18:15   what it is to be human [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4695">TS</a>]

01:18:17   we suddenly described all this injustice [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4697">TS</a>]

01:18:20   to certain kinds of injuries to certain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4700">TS</a>]

01:18:24   kinds of disease to certain kinds of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4704">TS</a>]

01:18:27   misfortune and by ascribing injustice to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4707">TS</a>]

01:18:32   it it doesn't mean that those things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4712">TS</a>]

01:18:35   actually are in just it's just that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4715">TS</a>]

01:18:38   we've described injustice to them and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4718">TS</a>]

01:18:40   and so the traumatic brain injury that a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4720">TS</a>]

01:18:44   football player receives is now a source [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4724">TS</a>]

01:18:47   of all this this conversation to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4727">TS</a>]

01:18:51   effect that maybe we should ban [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4731">TS</a>]

01:18:53   football-playing but the traumatic brain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4733">TS</a>]

01:18:55   injury of all the US soldiers that are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4735">TS</a>]

01:18:57   just receiving brain injury as a result [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4737">TS</a>]

01:19:00   of bombs going off around them all the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4740">TS</a>]

01:19:02   time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4742">TS</a>]

01:19:03   that's a conversation that we're tabling [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4743">TS</a>]

01:19:05   for now and the fact that people get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4745">TS</a>]

01:19:09   traumatic brain injury all the time just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4749">TS</a>]

01:19:11   driving in their cars or playing on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4751">TS</a>]

01:19:13   playground [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4753">TS</a>]

01:19:15   is a thing that we cannot describe an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4755">TS</a>]

01:19:17   injustice to so we just accept as part [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4757">TS</a>]

01:19:21   of life and the reality is we all die so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4761">TS</a>]

01:19:27   soon and that human life actually is not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4767">TS</a>]

01:19:32   that precious you know and that every [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4772">TS</a>]

01:19:36   death is a tragedy to the people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4776">TS</a>]

01:19:37   standing immediately in the vicinity of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4777">TS</a>]

01:19:39   it but as you get further away from any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4779">TS</a>]

01:19:43   one particular death in either time or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4783">TS</a>]

01:19:46   geography that death recedes and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4786">TS</a>]

01:19:49   importance until right now there are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4789">TS</a>]

01:19:52   hundreds of thousands of people dying [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4792">TS</a>]

01:19:53   all around the world of various causes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4793">TS</a>]

01:19:55   some of them incredibly in just but none [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4795">TS</a>]

01:19:58   of us are thinking about them or have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4798">TS</a>]

01:20:01   the capacity to think about them and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4801">TS</a>]

01:20:04   what what what confuses me is that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4804">TS</a>]

01:20:06   sometimes we will decide that one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4806">TS</a>]

01:20:11   person's life or a small group of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4811">TS</a>]

01:20:13   people's lives have this sanctity all of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4813">TS</a>]

01:20:17   a sudden and that their deaths are so in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4817">TS</a>]

01:20:21   just because we imagine that the that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4821">TS</a>]

01:20:28   the there's injustice in the prematurity [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4828">TS</a>]

01:20:31   of their death that their debt their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4831">TS</a>]

01:20:32   lives could have been prolonged or that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4832">TS</a>]

01:20:35   that the you know that the the deaths [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4835">TS</a>]

01:20:39   are the product of some conspiracy and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4839">TS</a>]

01:20:45   it's never a question of like that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4845">TS</a>]

01:20:47   person's you know like James [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4847">TS</a>]

01:20:48   Gandolfini's death is a tragedy because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4848">TS</a>]

01:20:50   of all the movies he didn't make and I i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4850">TS</a>]

01:20:54   saw a movie with him the other day and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4854">TS</a>]

01:20:55   was like that makes me sad his death is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4855">TS</a>]

01:20:57   a tragedy i wish i had seen some movies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4857">TS</a>]

01:20:58   he made but some more movies that he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4858">TS</a>]

01:21:02   made but really no James Gandolfini died [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4862">TS</a>]

01:21:05   when he died and he did what he did and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4865">TS</a>]

01:21:10   there isn't a tragic element to it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4870">TS</a>]

01:21:13   ultimately its it is a it in a way there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4873">TS</a>]

01:21:18   is no tragedy because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4878">TS</a>]

01:21:23   all things are happening as they are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4883">TS</a>]

01:21:26   happening you know it's it is a trick of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4886">TS</a>]

01:21:29   the mind to think that really that there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4889">TS</a>]

01:21:35   is such a thing as injustice and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4895">TS</a>]

01:21:40   isn't to say that that trick of the mind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4900">TS</a>]

01:21:42   isn't real and that we don't live in a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4902">TS</a>]

01:21:44   world where that trick of the mind is as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4904">TS</a>]

01:21:47   real to us as anything but it is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4907">TS</a>]

01:21:53   technology of the mind it's an it's up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4913">TS</a>]

01:21:56   it's an idea a mental process that we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4916">TS</a>]

01:22:02   don't investigate we we just think we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4922">TS</a>]

01:22:08   accept the notion that but there are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4928">TS</a>]

01:22:12   tragic deaths and the more boxes we can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4932">TS</a>]

01:22:17   take off prevent to bowl a violent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4937">TS</a>]

01:22:22   uncool somebody else profited you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4942">TS</a>]

01:22:26   we're checking up all these boxes in on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4946">TS</a>]

01:22:28   the injustice checklist and we will [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4948">TS</a>]

01:22:32   check out enough of them and it's like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4952">TS</a>]

01:22:33   this is an injustice and this other one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4953">TS</a>]

01:22:36   is more just and then that one is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4956">TS</a>]

01:22:39   righteous longer whatever and it's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4959">TS</a>]

01:22:40   like it's all part of a it's all part of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4960">TS</a>]

01:22:45   a game we're playing with ourselves that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4965">TS</a>]

01:22:47   we're not that we don't reflect on my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4967">TS</a>]

01:22:51   guess is my only comment on it and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4971">TS</a>]

01:22:54   wish we did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+BmEPQcJ5Y/4974">TS</a>]
