00:08:31 ◼ ► concerned the tiniest bit about what's happening to this desk if I'm accidently scratching it up [TS]
00:08:41 ◼ ► Gray if you were ever in charge of running the entire United States of America I hope that the condition of the desk is [TS]
00:08:50 ◼ ► Well if I'm working at that desk the desk that I'm working at would be the number one priority because everything else [TS]
00:08:58 ◼ ► This is the other problem I have with the presidential desk I don't think it looks very comfortable very usable. [TS]
00:09:12 ◼ ► Resolute Desk Gray Well you look it up I'm going to evict Audrey because she's making so much noise you can hide [TS]

00:09:36 ◼ ► here I did find the desk is bigger than I was thinking it was bigger than I was thinking it was [TS]
00:09:40 ◼ ► but I'm picky about this kind of stuff. As for they you know does it. OK just teasing me but it's important. [TS]
00:09:48 ◼ ► Like the surface of the desk matters it can't have any give it looks it looks like that surface might have a little bit [TS]
00:09:54 ◼ ► of give to it the desk can have the slightest bit of wobble. Even the tiniest bit of wobble around even this is no. [TS]
00:10:02 ◼ ► How much staff time do you think the president has there in terms of working at a desk I mean surely it's all meetings [TS]
00:10:07 ◼ ► and talking and so walk and talk right that's what you learn from the from the West Wing all walk and talk. [TS]
00:10:12 ◼ ► I don't think it's spent and somebody's going to be sitting there editing a video. [TS]
00:10:15 ◼ ► Are you going to be meeting with the Joint Chiefs and then going to be meeting with the agriculture secretary [TS]
00:10:20 ◼ ► and then you going to be doing this and having this briefing and then shaking hands [TS]
00:10:23 ◼ ► and I think going to be sitting a desk a whole lot I meant to do a little reading but you could do that on a sofa [TS]
00:10:30 ◼ ► when other people come to you though I mean after you get a present you're not wandering around having to track down [TS]
00:10:41 ◼ ► when you're sitting talking to someone it's not going to matter you know how stable your arm is for writing [TS]
00:10:45 ◼ ► when you're talking to someone you probably don't sit on the sofa or opposite them or in a chair [TS]
00:10:52 ◼ ► but I think you know I don't think you need to worry about it so much as a workspace. I think you're right. [TS]
00:10:57 ◼ ► My image of the president is probably not correct partly because the kind of job that requires you to be talking all [TS]
00:11:03 ◼ ► day long to other people is just so horrifying I refused to consider it in its entirety. [TS]
00:11:19 ◼ ► I can't imagine a job I would like less than being the president it just sounds awful. [TS]
00:11:24 ◼ ► That's awful but I think you're right though I think I may be the death matters much less to be impressive. [TS]
00:11:39 ◼ ► You were just mentioning to me we were chatting the other day about how how long has it been that you've had your phone [TS]
00:11:44 ◼ ► a couple months now I have no sense of time with these things now I don't know you're probably a couple of months I've [TS]
00:11:51 ◼ ► and you were complaining to me were you not that you still are just totally unsatisfied with the size that I I would [TS]
00:12:00 ◼ ► Say I dislike it like I like I have a grudge against it now though yeah I thought you know nobody likes change [TS]
00:12:27 ◼ ► and it's beginning to become like a thorn in my side that's that sounds pretty serious. [TS]
00:12:33 ◼ ► I know this is you know my first world problems and you know people are starving to death and things like that [TS]
00:12:39 ◼ ► and I shouldn't be complaining about my fine but that's all I've got to complain about at the moment. [TS]
00:12:44 ◼ ► And but did you also not say to me that you almost certainly didn't buy the same size again. Yeah I kind of did. [TS]
00:13:09 ◼ ► and I can't imagine not having the high the high spec if they made it somehow made like a five S. [TS]
00:13:16 ◼ ► With you know big beefed up memory and most of the same capabilities within reason and I couldn't [TS]
00:13:31 ◼ ► I'm always pressing the wrong things and also it's made me like I don't know if it's because of this size but [TS]
00:13:37 ◼ ► when I used my father yes I was really fast and everything and I could I could do everything quickly. [TS]
00:13:47 ◼ ► when I pulled this one out now I feel like I'm unlucky like a grandpa using a phone [TS]
00:13:55 ◼ ► Quickly anymore and I'm like oh what a web person where is it going to go. I feel like an idiot now. [TS]
00:14:07 ◼ ► I'm still having to double tap to bring icons down and can reach them and it's just rubbish. [TS]
00:14:15 ◼ ► So right so right that's enough I said enough you can always complain to me about your i Phone anytime that you want. [TS]
00:14:23 ◼ ► but do you ever use a case on your phone I have got a case on it yeah OK I have a recommendation. [TS]
00:14:37 ◼ ► On You Tube who does all these great tech reviews really like i Watches Apple stuff [TS]
00:14:45 ◼ ► and away the best it was it was like really clear user focused reviews on You Tube It's good stuff. [TS]
00:14:51 ◼ ► But he recommended to me a thing which I was like No I'm never I would not use that I would hate that. [TS]
00:14:57 ◼ ► But he was totally right and it is not an i Phone case but an i Phone skin it almost feel like plastic [TS]
00:15:10 ◼ ► It's not sticky at all until you heat it and then when you heat it grips the phone really tightly [TS]
00:15:17 ◼ ► and where it ends up doing is giving you a kind of frictional surface on the back and the round edges of the phone [TS]
00:15:25 ◼ ► and I would have never thought that I would be the kind of person who would like this [TS]
00:15:30 ◼ ► and I totally love it because it pulls in the size of the phone by just a couple of millimeters which which makes a big [TS]
00:15:38 ◼ ► difference to me like the the little bit of thickness of the case is it is enough to be frustrating. [TS]
00:15:44 ◼ ► Phyllis Holden in a previous podcast you went caseless and thought that was better. Well that's exactly right. [TS]
00:15:48 ◼ ► I was going caseless with the phone but then I had this different problem which like you I was I got a new phone. [TS]
00:16:00 ◼ ► Made you out of apparently a material that has a coefficient of static friction of just zero right is the thing this is [TS]
00:16:08 ◼ ► this frictionless surface that I was constantly I would find myself just sitting like in better something holding the [TS]
00:16:14 ◼ ► phone and it would just fall out of my hands and I would feel like an idiot. Like how did I. Yeah like how did I. [TS]
00:16:21 ◼ ► I'm just sitting here. Nothing's happening and I still am unable to hold on to it somehow. [TS]
00:16:26 ◼ ► So I totally love this skin that goes around the outside and it I still don't like the size of the phone [TS]
00:16:33 ◼ ► but it I feel like OK this is this is getting closer to a thing that is kind of usable so I would highly recommend it [TS]
00:16:40 ◼ ► I'll put a link in the show notes people want to check out the skins I really like it [TS]
00:16:49 ◼ ► and just like you I find myself wondering about are they going to make a smaller one. [TS]
00:16:53 ◼ ► What will I even be able to buy a smaller one because I don't like the size either but. I'm really aware. [TS]
00:17:01 ◼ ► Looking at this thing that's like man if you could just shave a few more millimeters here and there [TS]
00:17:12 ◼ ► and you just look at the size of the screen don't you don't look at the size of the phone that surround it. [TS]
00:17:19 ◼ ► I thought ha that screen size actually looks really great because I was wondering who the who the hell an apple was the [TS]
00:17:30 ◼ ► and thought yeah that's the one to go with because I haven't heard anybody say that they like it. [TS]
00:17:39 ◼ ► I've never heard anybody be like oh yes old it's great to talk to my wife she still loves it. [TS]
00:17:49 ◼ ► but what so what occurred to me was I thought maybe this is one of these cases where Apple is thinking about what is [TS]
00:18:00 ◼ ► If if they can really pull in the bezel especially the thing on the bottom which takes up a lot of space I feel like [TS]
00:18:12 ◼ ► So I look at when I hold it and I'm trying to reach the top and I can't I can't quite get those top icons. [TS]
00:18:18 ◼ ► It's that is the bottom bezel that's causing a lot of that problem of not being able to reach up all the way up to the [TS]
00:18:24 ◼ ► top so if I could actually just hold an object that was almost exactly the size of the screen that would be way better. [TS]
00:18:31 ◼ ► This is my crazy thought is that maybe Apple is going to try to get rid of the bezels on the top on the bottom as much [TS]
00:18:41 ◼ ► and the thing that was making me wonder about this this is the piece that was missing is that in the Apple Watch. [TS]
00:18:47 ◼ ► One of the things they have are they is a pressure sensitive screen which is new and different. [TS]
00:18:58 ◼ ► And I thought maybe in a couple generations they won't need that button on the bottom. [TS]
00:19:04 ◼ ► If instead there's a region on the screen that can tell when you press it instead of just touching it. [TS]
00:19:14 ◼ ► but I'm just I'm trying to give myself hope for the future I guess that if they don't make a small phone that maybe [TS]
00:19:23 ◼ ► I tell you what if someone banned wild speculation about a future Apple products I don't know what podcast of this [TS]
00:19:30 ◼ ► and the final thing on my list is just a million people sent this to me is a link to the Canadian passport. [TS]
00:19:46 ◼ ► It comes and it is an article about things that the newest version of the Canadian passport [TS]
00:19:53 ◼ ► and this is somewhat follow because last time we were talking about Norway's passport which I very much. [TS]
00:20:00 ◼ ► The design of and they had a cool security feature about how the scene changes if you put it under a black light [TS]
00:20:06 ◼ ► and it looks like the Canadian passport has gone all in on is black light technology you know they have like they have [TS]
00:20:17 ◼ ► Every page of the Canadian passport it has some of the dude picture on it and you put it under the black light [TS]
00:20:23 ◼ ► and then suddenly it's there's many believes that fire works and explosions everywhere. [TS]
00:20:31 ◼ ► I think if the regular pictures weren't so sedate I'm not quite sure how I would feel about this [TS]
00:20:37 ◼ ► but I love there's one which is almost like the American passport because there's a there's a picture of like a train [TS]
00:20:49 ◼ ► and suddenly there's a grain in the front and clouds and birds flying across the sky. [TS]
00:20:56 ◼ ► but it is definitely it is definitely fun to look at to see the difference in the the scenes under the blacklight [TS]
00:21:09 ◼ ► I know you and he say on the black but just because it is the thing that shows up on the black cloud could be code [TS]
00:21:14 ◼ ► and I think some of these are a bit I'm not cool with that so many Canadians because [TS]
00:21:22 ◼ ► and you know good people to say that I don't like what you've done here so you must be on the other [TS]
00:21:31 ◼ ► No Why what was the country I was it was not it was Norway this was kind of cool because it was you know a roller [TS]
00:21:40 ◼ ► but it was definitely it was the roar at night time it look at the Norway one was undoubtably beautiful That's why I [TS]
00:21:47 ◼ ► keep using the word fun here I feel like this is this is fun and kind of crazy and I let it let it slide [TS]
00:22:00 ◼ ► But it is a little bit like someone figured out how to do the black light technology and Norway did it first [TS]
00:22:07 ◼ ► and then count I was like This is where you feel like like everything the one who does the kind of crazy is the [TS]
00:22:15 ◼ ► founding fathers and then the article says when you put it into the black light it's the founding fathers at a rave [TS]
00:22:21 ◼ ► and it looks like a river or in Tron or they are kind of drawn to it as well. It'll be in the center. [TS]

00:27:31 ◼ ► never seen before and this is a stellar example for the news media. I see it all on the Internet. [TS]
00:27:42 ◼ ► OK I have a son the little spoiler I can hear who that is a terrifying plane crash. Pretty amazing pretty amazing. [TS]
00:28:03 ◼ ► and it turns out actually it was what looks like it might be one of these crashes where one of the engines failed on [TS]
00:28:18 ◼ ► So anyway it is dash cam footage is of someone just driving along the highway and the plane crashes. [TS]
00:28:23 ◼ ► I mean it looks like it can't be more than thirty forty meters in front of the car just kind of clips clips the road [TS]
00:28:30 ◼ ► and goes into like a river or something on the side there and they actually click that taxicab in front as well. [TS]
00:28:38 ◼ ► But it does it looks like the plane is flying normally as it comes in from the right side of the screen [TS]
00:28:45 ◼ ► and then it just it looks like it just turns and falls right out of the sky and it's going to directly [TS]
00:28:52 ◼ ► Anyway so there's a there's the you know I'm sure you can see why a lot of people were tweeting me [TS]
00:28:58 ◼ ► when that footage was going around last night because it was you know that must of been very exciting for you. [TS]
00:29:03 ◼ ► when I was you know I was into office it was interesting Funnily enough the car one more behind also had a dash cam so [TS]
00:29:08 ◼ ► you can watch the same thing from another hundred meters away. The dash cams are obviously a big thing in Taiwan. [TS]
00:29:16 ◼ ► If you have if you have to dash cams you could do so you could see that you computer and do a some semi three D. [TS]
00:29:22 ◼ ► Reconstruction of the scene when you have perspective on it. Now you're now you're thinking now. [TS]
00:29:28 ◼ ► So anyway what I did this morning was I phoned my good friend who I've referred to numerous times on the podcast who is [TS]
00:29:35 ◼ ► a pilot your pilot friend my pilot friend Louie and funnily enough he's been a seven four seven pilot for years [TS]
00:29:42 ◼ ► but he's just been training on new planes so he can do new routes so I happened to find him [TS]
00:29:47 ◼ ► and not while he was having a break from his new training so it's quite funny to find out your pilot friend who is [TS]
00:29:52 ◼ ► learning to fly planes. So let's talk about plane crashes and the thing I want to get from him was what it's like. [TS]
00:30:05 ◼ ► and me you know it's like Gosh how scary is that you know I would want to be in a plane crash right. [TS]
00:30:12 ◼ ► But the second thing is to not be so powerless and you know it just be a passenger and what can I do. [TS]
00:30:31 ◼ ► And you get so technical and start saying well you know this is what you're supposed to do [TS]
00:30:39 ◼ ► and if you do this planes are really safe and it's almost impossible for that to happen if you do this [TS]
00:30:47 ◼ ► and towards the end of the conversation something occurred to me that has never occurred to me before. [TS]
00:30:57 ◼ ► and I can't believe I've never thought of this before. You see G.P. Grey in another life should have been a pilot. [TS]
00:31:10 ◼ ► and the way he was talking to me makes me think Gray would be a perfect pilot because it's all about like being really [TS]
00:31:27 ◼ ► He was telling me if this happens we've got this checklist and we've got this happens we've got this checklist [TS]
00:31:38 ◼ ► Yeah everything and it's you know and it's involving big machinery and things like that and you love machines [TS]
00:31:43 ◼ ► and engineering and physics and all that sort of thing and you know you're flying around the world over [TS]
00:31:49 ◼ ► and using using maps and borders and coordinates and it just like everything about being a pilot. [TS]
00:31:58 ◼ ► I think you know I know you do. I'm not jet lag and you don't like flying but other than that minor problem. [TS]
00:32:14 ◼ ► and you have you're faced with the crisis of Oh God what am I going to do with the rest of my life and [TS]
00:32:23 ◼ ► and I remember thinking about pilot as one of the options of not necessarily that it was realistic [TS]
00:32:30 ◼ ► but just in the in the universe of jobs that I could try and imagine myself actually doing. [TS]
00:32:35 ◼ ► Pilot was one of the ones that I thought I think I might be able to get used to that I could. [TS]
00:32:41 ◼ ► but I obviously didn't like the practicalities of becoming a pattern it's very difficult it's not like I get what has [TS]
00:32:51 ◼ ► but of the numerous jobs that were out there that was on my list of in some universe I could imagine doing this job. [TS]
00:32:59 ◼ ► Unlike say a Dr Wright was just there's no there's no universe in which I could be a doctor that would just never [TS]
00:33:07 ◼ ► Oh yeah yeah like I can imagine you in a pilot uniform like pilots look pretty much like you look a lot of the time. [TS]
00:33:15 ◼ ► Oh yeah yeah you know I mean not that I mean it is the stereotypical you know Tom Cruise maverick pilot [TS]
00:33:27 ◼ ► Well I'm not quite sure how to take that but we just take it as such don't take it just [TS]
00:33:32 ◼ ► and this science is just a thing OK. Shouldn't they have like a company even in the thought of it before. [TS]
00:33:48 ◼ ► Yeah because towards the end of this conversation with my friend I was a bit disappointed I was like you know he's so [TS]
00:34:00 ◼ ► He says Actually there is one piece of footage of a plane crash that I watch that does give me shivers. [TS]
00:34:08 ◼ ► He's laying them all you know he's saying all the footage that I've seen on all the things he says there is one plane [TS]
00:34:15 ◼ ► when I watched that as a pilot it Shin's it sends shivers down my spine. Would you like to see this footage. [TS]
00:34:30 ◼ ► but it is really interesting to see the one crash that terrifies a pilot and it affected me in a funny way. [TS]
00:34:38 ◼ ► I'm going to send it to I can believe I hadn't seen this before by the way it's an extraordinary piece of footage. OK. [TS]
00:34:50 ◼ ► OK I feel like this is the start of the Star Wars trailer all over again. I don't really want to watch this thing. [TS]
00:34:55 ◼ ► Let me say it again we can do it. Let me let me set the scene for this crash as well. [TS]
00:35:03 ◼ ► This is this is footage of a seven hundred seven taking off it's it's a cargo flight that has some really heavy [TS]
00:35:17 ◼ ► And when it took off they kind of came loose and all went to the back of the plane [TS]
00:35:25 ◼ ► and the outcome the outcome is what you say so that that explains the movement of this plane. [TS]
00:35:29 ◼ ► OK and I'll send you this footage now and this is apparently this is the sort of footage that does scare a pilot. [TS]
00:36:00 ◼ ► Almost all plane crashes and thinks quite rationally about them I could do this or maybe they should have done this [TS]
00:36:09 ◼ ► and it's just you're just completely powerless in a huge bit of metal then and you can do nothing about it. [TS]
00:36:27 ◼ ► Yeah but it looks like the plane stalls in mid-air that it's going forward and then it just it just stops [TS]
00:36:37 ◼ ► Yeah that that's exactly it it kind of goes it looks like it's going forward it kind of inches back for a second [TS]
00:36:42 ◼ ► and then just straight down and it is it's not very high off the ground it looks like it must have just taken off. [TS]
00:36:52 ◼ ► So there's nothing nothing that can be done that it just smashes into the ground very laden with fuel obviously. [TS]
00:37:09 ◼ ► when I watch that like I always have this stupid belief in my head that if I was in a plane crash you know maybe I'd [TS]
00:37:16 ◼ ► get away with it you know I'd break some bones and idea but when you watch that crash and what happens [TS]
00:37:34 ◼ ► Yes I say that that bothers bothers me WAY less because I've never had this bizarre notion that I will just be [TS]
00:37:43 ◼ ► magically OK in a terrible situation like you have so I can see that house for you this is much more disturbing because [TS]
00:37:48 ◼ ► you're faced with the reality of you can just die in a plane crash like the rest of us mortals you don't have a magic [TS]
00:37:55 ◼ ► protection field around you there is no there's no lucky escape from that. Now the one thing. [TS]
00:38:03 ◼ ► but the sound was a movie you must know I saw a clip from that movie with Denzel Washington where he's an airplane [TS]
00:38:10 ◼ ► pilot. You know we're talking about and he turned that around upside down. Yet he turns the plane upside down. [TS]
00:38:19 ◼ ► but I saw a You Tube clip of this scene in the movie where there's a problem with the engine and all the rest of it. [TS]
00:38:33 ◼ ► and that actually affected me quite greatly not because of anything like because it's a movie so it didn't you know [TS]
00:38:38 ◼ ► whatever it may be this is real Maybe it's not I don't know but I feel really stupid because I watched that clip [TS]
00:38:44 ◼ ► and the thing that kept happening in my mind was realizing this scene is really long [TS]
00:38:56 ◼ ► I actually in my mind without thinking it through sort of imagine that all plane crashes were like the one that you [TS]
00:39:01 ◼ ► just showed me like we're in the plane. There's a problem and two seconds later it's all over. [TS]
00:39:08 ◼ ► It never occurred to me that you could be in the air for a relatively long time with nothing to do [TS]
00:39:14 ◼ ► and if you're at thirty thousand fate and even if you just drop like a stone it's a long drop. [TS]
00:39:28 ◼ ► and was forced to come to the realization of I'm sitting here through this seven minute scene. [TS]
00:39:34 ◼ ► If it doesn't mean that it's over quickly if you're in a plane it can be a long time a long time of waiting for it to [TS]
00:39:42 ◼ ► be over and that is much more terrifying to me to know what's really interesting lots of people always write to us [TS]
00:39:47 ◼ ► and say they gets on with I find it quite funny to listen to this section when they're on planes [TS]
00:39:52 ◼ ► but I think I'll be enjoying this one very much. I don't know how they enjoy any of them. [TS]
00:39:56 ◼ ► Yes All right I'm sorry everyone on planes blame. It's one hundred percent on Brady. It's all Brady's fault. [TS]
00:40:05 ◼ ► Oh boy that will then lead us away from blank rushes to another subject that we are bored. [TS]
00:40:11 ◼ ► Yeah I wish we could talk about I was talking about plane crashes all day with my favorite thing. [TS]
00:40:14 ◼ ► There was another tragic incident a little bit of publicity recently I think happened last year a report came out [TS]
00:40:21 ◼ ► To cut a long story short it was it was a guy who was just taking work through individual friends for joy flights in a [TS]
00:40:35 ◼ ► and then the report found the reason for the crash was taking selfies I'm just going by just going crazy with cameras [TS]
00:40:42 ◼ ► probably and taking pictures of themselves and some you know a flash mob have gone off in our lives or distraction [TS]
00:40:49 ◼ ► or something and the plane came down. I would I will I will say to people who do it who are into reading N.T.S.B. [TS]
00:40:59 ◼ ► Crash reports this is quite an interesting one to read to sort of get you started because it was quite short [TS]
00:41:06 ◼ ► and it's a little bit different as this is your recommended baby's first and D.S.'s crash report. [TS]
00:41:13 ◼ ► and one reason is interesting is the plane had a go pro on the dashboard that was filming all his previous flights to [TS]
00:41:22 ◼ ► There is no footage of presumably because the recording didn't save to the car because of the crash [TS]
00:41:30 ◼ ► and the report goes through what was on all the previous Go Pro recordings which is quite interesting because if you're [TS]
00:41:36 ◼ ► reading this crash report and something they're talking about all these things that are on the Go Pro all the files [TS]
00:41:41 ◼ ► and because everyone was taking selfies in all the previous slots and come to their conclusions. [TS]
00:41:47 ◼ ► But that to move away from plane crashes I mean like I mean I think as an investor discuss here if you're a pilot [TS]
00:41:54 ◼ ► taking selfies in a plane is probably not a smart move. But it did get me thinking about something. [TS]
00:42:00 ◼ ► Interesting my wife said to me the other day we were on a long drive moo going down the motorway I was driving [TS]
00:42:06 ◼ ► and I was listening to a podcast and she said that my driving is much worse when I'm listening to a podcast. [TS]
00:42:17 ◼ ► But she said you know he clearly is paying less attention I mean she is always complaining about my driving. [TS]
00:42:25 ◼ ► and obviously there's always you know I don't use a mobile phone. Don't look at a screen. Be hands free. [TS]
00:42:31 ◼ ► But we never really talk about distraction in this way you know should what should we be listening to a woman driving. [TS]
00:42:43 ◼ ► Not that I want to discourage people from listening to hello internet when they go on their drives [TS]
00:42:46 ◼ ► but it was an interesting discussion something I hadn't thought about before is some is listening to some things that [TS]
00:42:55 ◼ ► You have just hit on a total pet peeve of mine because in the US there's this debate about the different driving laws [TS]
00:43:09 ◼ ► It's all the states do things differently and lots of states have set up different rules for whether [TS]
00:43:24 ◼ ► or like my my parents' car have some feature where the i Phone just routes through the built in microphones [TS]
00:43:30 ◼ ► and speakers of the car. Yeah that counts as hands legs all various different ways to deal with a market as well. [TS]
00:43:36 ◼ ► OK So that strikes me as magic for some reason I'm always surprised by all of the cars just speaking the person anyway. [TS]
00:43:53 ◼ ► and like inside the prison I don't know it I don't like it at all with a person like this. [TS]
00:44:00 ◼ ► It's me crazy is that some states do this thing about no you can't you can talk on the phone. Full stop. [TS]
00:44:12 ◼ ► Another other states have this whole oh you can do it hands free this is obviously so much better [TS]
00:44:17 ◼ ► and people are big on turning their state into a hands free state as opposed to a you know no cellphones at all state. [TS]
00:44:25 ◼ ► Yeah and I hate this because there's there's a University of Utah applied Cognition Lab laboratory study [TS]
00:44:39 ◼ ► and the bottom line is if you are talking to someone on the phone it makes basically no difference whether [TS]
00:44:49 ◼ ► But the thing that causes an accident is not who I didn't have enough grip on the steering wheel. [TS]
00:44:55 ◼ ► It's who I didn't notice something because I wasn't paying attention to the situation at hand [TS]
00:45:00 ◼ ► and they actually the study puts the odds at you are basically exactly the same as a drunk driver in terms of [TS]
00:45:15 ◼ ► That this is there is no difference in the probability of you getting into an accident. [TS]
00:45:20 ◼ ► As I feel very strongly about this and I don't like to be in cars when people are talking on the phone [TS]
00:45:27 ◼ ► and I've had conversations with some people about this where I'm not going to be in the car with you if you're talking [TS]
00:45:43 ◼ ► and you start talking to somebody even even if you're using hands free you have effectively transformed yourself into a [TS]
00:45:51 ◼ ► drunk driver in terms of statistics. During this time. So I am very very anti talking on the phone in any way. [TS]
00:46:03 ◼ ► At that point but you know people people think that it's about physically gripping the steering wheel [TS]
00:46:20 ◼ ► And the first my first response to what to what you say is I completely agree because I always like Miss turn off some [TS]
00:46:29 ◼ ► things when I'm going somewhere and I'm talking to. I agree. I I do not disagree with you. [TS]
00:46:37 ◼ ► I do think handheld devices are more dangerous particularly because I would never do this [TS]
00:46:44 ◼ ► but I have heard it said that if you send a text message while driving that is more dangerous than talking on the phone [TS]
00:46:51 ◼ ► while driving because then you start taking your eyes off the road and you drift across lanes [TS]
00:47:00 ◼ ► and we both know someone who text while driving way too much is probably listening to this pod cast right now who [TS]
00:47:09 ◼ ► Oh I realize that you know who you are a person should stop that's right. So. So that is more dangerous. [TS]
00:47:17 ◼ ► So I think anything that anything that's taking the phone you know anything that's encouraging the use of the phone not [TS]
00:47:24 ◼ ► in the hand I think does have merit to it and maybe it's a first step towards weaning us off our phones while driving. [TS]
00:47:31 ◼ ► Well this this thing was again just talking about you are talking they weren't doing a comparison between texting while [TS]
00:47:47 ◼ ► Yeah but they have their hands free so I don't feel like handsfree gets us one step closer [TS]
00:47:52 ◼ ► and it's it's kind of like I'm not actually a fan of a lot of Apple's car play things like a lot of cars having this [TS]
00:48:04 ◼ ► but Android has some similar program where you know like you can now talk to Siri while you're in the phone [TS]
00:48:08 ◼ ► but it's like a built in feature of the car and you and I just look at all that stuff [TS]
00:48:13 ◼ ► and I think Man I just I have I I don't know I I'm just very much I'm very much against that stuff [TS]
00:48:26 ◼ ► but obviously people do say you need some kind of you know me I love system solution you need some kind of system solution [TS]
00:48:34 ◼ ► You can't just tell people Oh don't don't text while driving because even very smart people who should totally know [TS]
00:48:42 ◼ ► You know like they have to check Twitter right now and they're driving on the highway and it doesn't matter [TS]
00:48:51 ◼ ► Then a Herzog film that was made funded by the mobile phone companies in the US that was then released on You Tube [TS]
00:49:00 ◼ ► and things like that which was a series of sort of vignettes with people who had either lost people [TS]
00:49:11 ◼ ► I watched and it really affected my attitude to my phone while driving. And stay with us. [TS]
00:49:19 ◼ ► Yeah I still make phone calls because I can hear you at all it's terrible because I can barely hear you [TS]
00:49:32 ◼ ► And but I don't disagree with you and I disagree with you here. Let us do an interesting thing right. [TS]
00:49:40 ◼ ► Like during a back to your original point because it is very easy for someone like me who basically never drives to say [TS]
00:49:47 ◼ ► I go Don't don't be on the phone while driving I mean I do feel like that because you know I don't want to be killed by [TS]
00:49:55 ◼ ► Yeah but I think it like an interesting question is is your original one is and I don't. [TS]
00:50:00 ◼ ► I know of any studies I haven't come across anything I'd be really curious if any of the listeners know but [TS]
00:50:08 ◼ ► Because the studies that I've come across talking about distracted driving point out how talking to somebody else who's [TS]
00:50:22 ◼ ► and part part of the reason there is that the person who's in the car with you is can textually aware of the situation [TS]
00:50:37 ◼ ► When you come to an intersection or some kind of tricky driving situation the person in the car stops talking [TS]
00:50:45 ◼ ► and then the conversation just picks up like nothing happened as soon as you're through the you know the left hand turn [TS]
00:50:50 ◼ ► across a busy intersection and there's a lot about that but of course it seems so obvious as soon as someone says it [TS]
00:50:57 ◼ ► but it must have been you know you're taking a long drive it must happen a dozen times on the drive that the passenger [TS]
00:51:07 ◼ ► and that the problem with talking with someone is that they are not can textually aware of your situation yet so the [TS]
00:51:17 ◼ ► You're trying to make that left hand turn across an intersection and they're not aware enough [TS]
00:51:29 ◼ ► and contextually aware of what you're doing so maybe they are maybe they're worse Well they are worse than that person [TS]
00:51:34 ◼ ► sitting next to you there are bigger danger. Well so here's here's what I want to hear that I wonder. [TS]
00:51:42 ◼ ► But Mike My question is maybe I would speculate that there's a there's a chance that listening to something like a [TS]
00:51:51 ◼ ► or an audiobook doesn't affect the likelihood of accidents merely because there's no social pressure for you to the per. [TS]
00:52:10 ◼ ► and that's why someone told me you know my chance of getting into an accident was not drunk driver level [TS]
00:52:18 ◼ ► and driving I would have to seriously consider that something like a six week road trip like well you know how high are [TS]
00:52:31 ◼ ► But I would I would wonder that then maybe it's not bad simply because you can just tune out the speaker on the audio [TS]
00:52:38 ◼ ► book as something I know like I was a lothario it happens all the time if I'm just walking around [TS]
00:52:42 ◼ ► and I find my my attention has gotten caught on something else like oh what's this thing happening over here [TS]
00:52:47 ◼ ► and then I've totally missed the audio book for a minute or two I would have to jump back [TS]
00:52:51 ◼ ► when I realize I've missed something so I don't I would I would love to know I would love to know if it's different [TS]
00:52:57 ◼ ► because while I do think that people should listen to Hello internets all day all the time. [TS]
00:53:03 ◼ ► If if it was increasing their likelihood of getting into accidents while driving I would not want them to listen. [TS]
00:53:11 ◼ ► So I would love to know all about one of our sponsors for this episode either. OK now that's a good question. [TS]
00:53:18 ◼ ► Certainly I'm really hoping not but you know what it doesn't it doesn't matter right. [TS]
00:53:24 ◼ ► I actually want to look at every lot of one of our sponsors. Where is where is our little thing. Hello Internet. [TS]
00:53:30 ◼ ► Audible dot com is what fits with this you can audit how important they were to cross country trips. [TS]
00:53:44 ◼ ► or the worst time to lead into the art of glad I have no idea when the we do the ad later will have to figure it out. [TS]
00:53:49 ◼ ► Ira cut to the Autoglass Yes it's a horrible if you haven't ventured into the world of audiobooks you really should do [TS]
00:54:03 ◼ ► and let's face it if you listen to hello internet you don't mind settling in for a serious round of talking. [TS]
00:54:09 ◼ ► All it will have a truly astonishing range of titles and I really don't know where to start with recommendations. [TS]
00:54:14 ◼ ► Perhaps what I'll suggest this way is going to order Vo at their web site or dot com [TS]
00:54:19 ◼ ► and use the search term chess which covers up some really good books now I'm no chess expert [TS]
00:54:31 ◼ ► Probably my favorite is one coach the immortal game by David shank and of course all of who has it. [TS]
00:54:39 ◼ ► There's a six hour abridged version read by Rick Adamson. You really will love it. [TS]
00:54:48 ◼ ► It's an intriguing story about the game's history and its colorful players really well written really great stories. [TS]
00:55:00 ◼ ► Just signed on for an audible trial and that will include the free download of a book of your choice [TS]
00:55:06 ◼ ► and maybe you choose the immortal game if not you can go through some of their previous podcasts [TS]
00:55:11 ◼ ► and get other recommendations that myself and Gray have made over the last year or so. That address again. [TS]
00:55:20 ◼ ► So they know you came from us and our thanks to all of all for supporting this podcast. [TS]
00:55:31 ◼ ► and I could hear her snoring out there you left the poor dog just sitting outside the door also should usually they [TS]
00:55:36 ◼ ► would both go down to my bedroom and go on their big lovely bed down there but she wants to be with her master [TS]
00:55:41 ◼ ► and you chased around with a baseball bat and she still loves you. Cole she loves sitting up against the door. [TS]
00:55:53 ◼ ► when I come where you got this bunny because not harsh. One just hand story man you've written something in the night. [TS]
00:56:15 ◼ ► Also when it tells us you were quite excited. It's not actually that exciting but yeah about a week and a half ago. [TS]
00:56:23 ◼ ► Yeah you couldn't doubt it with Once upon a time. Once upon a time a week and a half ago in my flat. [TS]
00:56:31 ◼ ► I was getting ready to do my regular work routine some getting up in the morning unusually busy this last week [TS]
00:56:37 ◼ ► and this current week I have a couple deadlines I need to hit which is not normally the case for me so lots of stuff to [TS]
00:56:43 ◼ ► do I can't afford delays. What time do you get out. Well at the moment I am getting up at about six thirty. [TS]
00:57:01 ◼ ► and prepare for away before I go back to bed for a bit more sleep. Well six hundred thirty six thirty works. [TS]
00:57:12 ◼ ► But my wife is going off to work getting ready starting the day you are still snoozing probably And so you know we've [TS]
00:57:18 ◼ ► discussed before I have my little routine that has to go just the way that I wanted to go I need to make my breakfast [TS]
00:57:25 ◼ ► in a particular way like how all this everything used to be just so so that I can kind of get into a regular workday [TS]
00:57:33 ◼ ► but if things go wrong I've just learned from experience it spells disaster for the amount of stuff I can actually get [TS]
00:57:39 ◼ ► but so on this particular morning something happened to be different which is that our dishwasher did not run overnight [TS]
00:57:46 ◼ ► because it didn't happen to be close all the way so it couldn't be couldn't run automatically so we didn't have clean [TS]
00:58:11 ◼ ► Yeah we have some slightly smaller cups available and in the cover which I don't like to use for coffee [TS]
00:58:19 ◼ ► Thank you I'm not going to meet up so I take out the cup. Now my wife has already gone off to work. [TS]
00:58:28 ◼ ► So I pour out some coffee into the slightly smaller cup put it in the microwave and I just put it on the normal time. [TS]
00:58:35 ◼ ► or how much I want to microwave a coffee everything is always the same except this morning the cup is different now. [TS]
00:58:45 ◼ ► What you know about the property of fluids either super heating or super cooling yes. [TS]
00:58:51 ◼ ► Right so you can do this thing with fluids where if you put them in a very smooth container which this cup happens to [TS]
00:58:59 ◼ ► be where there's no cracks or nothing on the inside you can heat or cool them past their boiling or freezing point. [TS]
00:59:11 ◼ ► when things go past the freezing point where the water is colder than zero it should be frozen [TS]
00:59:16 ◼ ► but it isn't it still looks like water and then you just like tap it or you just drop a tiny piece of dust in it [TS]
00:59:25 ◼ ► Yeah and then you have the reverse which is super heated fluid when it goes past the boiling point [TS]
00:59:32 ◼ ► but it doesn't boil because there's no little surface on the inside for any bubbles to start. [TS]
00:59:38 ◼ ► So now unbeknownst to me because the cup was slightly smaller because there was less fluid in the cup [TS]
00:59:44 ◼ ► but I was still using the same time that I always used to microwave my coffee which is what an hour microwave it is a [TS]
01:00:02 ◼ ► and everything still has to be cooked for less than two minutes it was like three minutes no I was going to just burst [TS]
01:00:10 ◼ ► Here's where the whole morning my whole day and unbeknownst to me my whole week is about to change. [TS]
01:00:15 ◼ ► Yeah I reach in and take out the cup of coffee grab it in my left hand with my right hand [TS]
01:00:23 ◼ ► and take a spoon that I go to stir the coffee with just like every time little tiny spoon I put the little spoon in the [TS]
01:00:33 ◼ ► If you haven't seen it it's very strange it's not like when when water boils that boils from the bottom [TS]
01:00:39 ◼ ► when something is super heated it boils from everywhere all of a sudden every point of it suddenly becomes a bubble of [TS]
01:00:47 ◼ ► steaming coffee at that age so pours all over my hand that I'm holding all over that like if you imagine you're holding [TS]
01:00:55 ◼ ► a cup of coffee in your hand the complete top of my hand down the back around my thumb over the webbing [TS]
01:01:01 ◼ ► and down my index finger and a tiny bit on my palm. Did you make any noise or say anything. [TS]
01:01:21 ◼ ► I need to ask you this happens to you because it happens to me I find it strange if I get hurt in a surprised way like [TS]
01:01:28 ◼ ► say Oh get up in the middle of the night you're stumbling into the bathroom and you smash your toe or something [TS]
01:01:36 ◼ ► Not only does it hurt but I find for maybe two or three seconds my brain just goes into Hulk mode. [TS]
01:01:44 ◼ ► It's like I'm not only hurt but I'm filled with in student rage and if you want to just smash [TS]
01:02:00 ◼ ► Yeah it's not just our i'm hurt it's just it's like an outward projection. What is the thing that hurt me. [TS]
01:02:09 ◼ ► That must be some evolutionary thing that's going to some like some little five second pair up in case it was a mammoth [TS]
01:02:18 ◼ ► and yet it absolutely has to be that the only thing that makes sense or is it your body going. [TS]
01:02:23 ◼ ► Do we need to kill a tiger right now where her we don't know that if we don't know what it is. [TS]
01:02:35 ◼ ► and so I had this exact same thing happen with me with the coffee where I was furious at the cop and [TS]
01:02:43 ◼ ► and reflectively just threw it against the wall which is not the best thing to do as well. [TS]
01:02:49 ◼ ► So there is to this day a kind of huge stain of coffee against one of the walls in our flat which is very frustrating [TS]
01:02:57 ◼ ► Well this is this is this is also I find with these funny moments where you realize you're not as in control of your [TS]
01:03:03 ◼ ► mind as you think you are in these little these little reflexes like I think I could have no more. [TS]
01:03:23 ◼ ► I thought it was just something to have a really stunning Katherines when it really happened but I was also on. [TS]
01:03:29 ◼ ► How do you like five. You must know much older and I remember saying to happen before what is real. [TS]
01:03:36 ◼ ► It suddenly occurred to me I have no idea why the doctors do it do they just do it because it's funny not [TS]
01:03:40 ◼ ► and what can happen if there's any doctors to realize that what can there possibly be showing you're in good health I [TS]
01:03:46 ◼ ► have no idea we're going to possibly be you were saying there was a message to your story. [TS]
01:03:51 ◼ ► Well I'm going to get there and what if there's more to come. There's more to come. [TS]
01:03:57 ◼ ► Therefore it is not so I smashed a cup of coffee right. OK Don't don't don't let me stop you. [TS]
01:04:05 ◼ ► and it immediately becomes apparent that this is not a normal burn right that this is this is a much worse burnt than [TS]
01:04:11 ◼ ► I've ever had before. I'm looking at my skin and thinking Oh that does not look that does not look good. [TS]
01:04:22 ◼ ► As for as long as I can as long as I can and then I realized OK I need to figure out what's going on. [TS]
01:04:29 ◼ ► I need to find out about parents and let me tell you you will never realize how slow a fast computer is then [TS]
01:04:38 ◼ ► and you're trying to look up information about burn injuries because it's like click Safari I want Safari open now [TS]
01:04:50 ◼ ► Right now I can't wait for it and then it's like loading up Google or what is the Adobe app data. [TS]
01:05:10 ◼ ► and how helpful you find a good know it's like I just need this information immediately [TS]
01:05:16 ◼ ► and the bottom line with the website told me you obviously have a second degree burn. [TS]
01:05:20 ◼ ► This is something you need to actually have someone take a look at it like is your hand blistering immediately. [TS]
01:05:27 ◼ ► This is not a superficial burn you actually need to go into the hospital so great now I'm going to the hospital you [TS]
01:05:31 ◼ ► went to hospital. Yeah I went to the act in an emergency and you didn't tell me this. Was I supposed to tell you this. [TS]
01:05:47 ◼ ► but you should have sent me a message at some point we need to be down to get my mate went to hospital for the first [TS]
01:05:52 ◼ ► time on a podcast I went to Accident and Emergency and then I was like in a coma and went to X. and Emerge. [TS]
01:06:09 ◼ ► and like help to you tell you makes these things when you get second degree burns and go to the hospital. [TS]
01:06:16 ◼ ► I'm so I was a little preoccupied at the time. Oh we didn't have to tell me like at the time. [TS]
01:06:26 ◼ ► but at the time I was I wasn't thinking about the stuff my wife didn't find out until she came home from work like what [TS]
01:06:32 ◼ ► We come home from work now there's nothing she can do I'm just going to undergo an accident or murder. [TS]
01:06:40 ◼ ► Sort of yeah the debate she did then but then she realized that I was I was correct that there was going to an idiot. [TS]
01:06:59 ◼ ► and what I'm hoping is happening there is I've been to I've been there before with my wife [TS]
01:07:03 ◼ ► or some other things they have like three level of tree I was a doctor and I'm hoping that I just get there [TS]
01:07:08 ◼ ► and they look at this and go Oh you big baby. Just go home right. Just a bad burn you know. [TS]
01:07:23 ◼ ► So anyway I ended up spending like three hours at a NE going through various street levels until I saw the doctor a [TS]
01:07:33 ◼ ► but bad enough that we need to look at and they gave me some painkillers in the bandages up [TS]
01:07:38 ◼ ► and so I ended up with a bandage across all of my thumb and my finger in the palm of my hand [TS]
01:07:54 ◼ ► BRADY You know I have I have been attempting to do that and. It meditation meditation but something called mindfulness. [TS]
01:08:03 ◼ ► Over the past couple of months not very successfully I have to say what's wrong with me that I've been trying to do [TS]
01:08:09 ◼ ► meditation. It's just not the man I used to know. Well here's here's the thing This sounds to me like just craziness. [TS]
01:08:15 ◼ ► Mindfulness and meditation this is we can get off on a whole different topic on the some point [TS]
01:08:19 ◼ ► but I have heard from enough people that I trust who are also very successful get stuff done kind of people that this [TS]
01:08:24 ◼ ► and so I'm always up for trying stuff if if enough reliable people tell me about it so I thought OK I'll give this a [TS]
01:08:29 ◼ ► But so in mindfulness there's this thing that you're supposed to do to kind of become aware of which is that thoughts [TS]
01:08:35 ◼ ► and sensation are like appearances in consciousness and to detach yourself from them. So as they go. [TS]
01:08:55 ◼ ► when I burn my hand I thought for a moment I like OK this incredible pain like it's an object in my consciousness [TS]
01:09:02 ◼ ► but I can disassociate from it. Nope you are totally worthless to me right now mindfulness practice goodbye. [TS]
01:09:08 ◼ ► I do not have time for this. Yesterday I was Dr please give me that pain killer right now and you know the wrong way. [TS]
01:09:30 ◼ ► Yeah yeah well what would you do just just look firmly into the horizon under pressure to spill [TS]
01:09:41 ◼ ► Just fix it fix it so I go back to work I had to I had to do something while sitting around an axe an emergency for a [TS]

01:10:35 ◼ ► I'm sorry I will try to have it. I'm going to start sending you all kinds of stuff. [TS]
01:10:46 ◼ ► In an emergency with a bent hand it gets bandaged up crosses the line of talk to my mates at some point it's like you [TS]
01:10:59 ◼ ► but it was it was a it was also he threw it like if you send me something you didn't need to tell me. [TS]
01:11:12 ◼ ► and I would teach you where the line is of what you tell your friends. Do you want to know when my wife gets a haircut. [TS]
01:11:22 ◼ ► OK if it's like you know I'm a radical departure the radical argument is you know she's had a haircut it's really you [TS]

01:23:40 ◼ ► to me to continue to work on those projects and I don't know why that is I just find that that's the case. [TS]
01:23:47 ◼ ► So it's not that I'm trying to like oh I can't tell anybody not even my wife because she might run to my You Tube [TS]
01:23:54 ◼ ► That's not what it is about you know what it is what it is you like the theater you like the big. [TS]
01:24:00 ◼ ► I reveal you like you because you say you've been a show off. That's OK That's good you want to do that why Terry. [TS]
01:24:07 ◼ ► That's why just this if you know I don't like what you did just that this is exactly you you feel like a bit of a show [TS]
01:24:14 ◼ ► off and you project this on me and I'm sitting here thinking you could not have me more wrong. [TS]
01:24:19 ◼ ► It is nothing to do with being a final note evading because you wouldn't get the river the reveal [TS]
01:24:23 ◼ ► and the reaction anymore. That is nothing on it that has nothing to do with it. It couldn't be further from the truth. [TS]
01:24:30 ◼ ► Tell me what motivates you have people know let your friends know what you're working on I don't know why I feel like [TS]
01:24:41 ◼ ► OK just because I can't explain the internal state of my mind doesn't mean that your arbitrary assessment of it is [TS]
01:24:52 ◼ ► I mean I guess I can rule it out because I don't feel any joy about o'boy whipping away the veil of secrecy here [TS]
01:24:59 ◼ ► and everybody can look at the amazing thing that I create I don't feel that way at all than have released a video. [TS]
01:25:05 ◼ ► Mostly I mostly feel oh God I hope I didn't do something incredibly stupid that I'm about to hear about from millions [TS]
01:25:11 ◼ ► of people who know where everyone feels that that's that's that's that's a parallel emotion with releasing anything. [TS]
01:25:19 ◼ ► Yeah but but so I don't feel like I'm releasing this as a source. I just I find it. [TS]
01:25:26 ◼ ► I don't know I mean I feel it's I'm trying to articulate this it's almost like talking about it somehow. [TS]
01:25:34 ◼ ► HOWELL limits it in my mind it makes it possibly be fewer things it leaves me less free to think about oh how do I want [TS]
01:25:42 ◼ ► I'm just totally aware that that projects I have talked about before they reach a certain point are much more likely to [TS]
01:25:52 ◼ ► This happened in Alabama where much against my policy we were sitting around the table I talked about the thing that I [TS]
01:26:06 ◼ ► when I got back from Alabama I felt like I just had much less interest in continuing to work on that project [TS]
01:26:11 ◼ ► and I like it had a huge pile of notes in a bunch of things written and it was just you know maybe next year [TS]
01:26:25 ◼ ► and all that stuff you know I think you know I think it's a very well you're a wound up complicated bowl of conflicted [TS]
01:26:40 ◼ ► It's very simple there's no I realize I realize that outside a simple I just went totally [TS]
01:26:49 ◼ ► The internal part is simple as well it's just well if I if I talk about stuff before it's done I just don't feel like [TS]
01:26:57 ◼ ► working on it as much anymore no that doesn't count as the underlying reasoning that's the outward manifestation. [TS]
01:27:07 ◼ ► That's the complexity you just as you could just ask in nonsense questions now you know you know you do. [TS]
01:27:13 ◼ ► Let's let's try to delve into your subconscious is just that's just nonsense you know I don't want to be subconscious [TS]
01:27:28 ◼ ► This is this is a bit like a tape with this you know this is honestly like this is a bit like if I was trying to ask [TS]
01:27:36 ◼ ► you a deeper question about why you don't like eggs on your breakfast sandwiches you know what you just don't. [TS]
01:27:47 ◼ ► or know Brady there you're a mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in an Egg McMuffin like it just doesn't there's [TS]
01:27:54 ◼ ► nothing there. Instant Macand he said it's just things just are this is like. I will talk about this people I think. [TS]
01:28:08 ◼ ► It's totally unexplainable why people are interested in stuff like human interest is sort of self self validating I [TS]
01:28:18 ◼ ► think is the way that I would put it where people like to make fun of somebody else for being really into a thing I [TS]
01:28:24 ◼ ► feel like no no they're just interested in it. There's no real X. Plane crashes. That's just who he is. [TS]
01:28:29 ◼ ► Yeah like I think it's weird but you know you're just interested in that and it doesn't it doesn't need any reason. [TS]
01:28:37 ◼ ► and I find it interesting to think about like why don't certain things interest me stuff that seems like it totally [TS]
01:28:48 ◼ ► and there's no there's no explaining I think I really should have been interested in nothing [TS]
01:28:56 ◼ ► and you don't go looking for some kind of deeper explanation and deeper reasoning about oh. [TS]
01:29:04 ◼ ► and Brady does you know gray just because you don't go looking for it doesn't mean it's not there [TS]
01:29:13 ◼ ► and I am certain there are interesting things underlying For example why you don't like talking about your videos [TS]
01:29:26 ◼ ► and I got no idea doesn't mean it's not there and it's not interesting. It just means we're not talking about it. [TS]
01:29:38 ◼ ► and I don't know I will answer your questions as honestly as I possibly can about my work habits [TS]
01:29:44 ◼ ► but there's there's just nothing to be it just is at a certain level the brain is where your mind is an emergent [TS]
01:30:00 ◼ ► Having a why does gravity operate the way that it does that at a certain stage you just get to well that's the [TS]
01:30:04 ◼ ► structure of the universe which is just like saying the way we have it there is always another reason there is always [TS]
01:30:11 ◼ ► There isn't a No there is a toll with us and keeps digging deeper does try to find out why gravity works. [TS]
01:30:25 ◼ ► Some people give up at understanding how a car works at turning the K. Other people want to know how the engine works. [TS]
01:30:35 ◼ ► Other people want to know what the picture was made of and the atoms and other people want to know how the atoms work. [TS]
01:30:41 ◼ ► Everyone gives up at a different level at doesn't mean there's nothing below it just means you've stopped talking about [TS]
01:30:46 ◼ ► it. I'm not saying that there is. When you're talking about why do people think that's the way they do. [TS]
01:30:53 ◼ ► I'm not saying that there isn't some kind of underlying explanation that you think the better way to put it is to say [TS]
01:31:00 ◼ ► that there is no understandable underlying explanation right that to describe the process that is occurring in the [TS]
01:31:10 ◼ ► physical structure of the brain that leads to particular outcomes is very likely to be just non understandable to a [TS]
01:31:20 ◼ ► human brain or the like and you think the reason we are not talking about your videos falls into that category. [TS]
01:31:30 ◼ ► If I talk about things before they reach a certain point then I find that I am much less interested in much less able [TS]
01:31:41 ◼ ► and the reaction to things over time is like one of the interesting things about being self employed that I find is you [TS]
01:31:49 ◼ ► and this is one of the patterns among many that I have noticed which is one of the reasons why if I like I am getting [TS]
01:31:54 ◼ ► better at being a self employed person over the years because I'm more aware of these kinds of patterns. [TS]
01:32:08 ◼ ► and what you're asking is for an explanation of why do I find it harder to work on something after I have spoken about [TS]
01:32:18 ◼ ► and at this point I'm not able to articulate anything like as big as we're having this conversation I am not I'm not [TS]
01:32:26 ◼ ► and it may just be that we're at a kind of bottom level for the ability for the brain to understand itself like so I [TS]
01:32:36 ◼ ► and if we delve down into the electrochemistry of the brain we may be able to discover why this is the case [TS]
01:32:44 ◼ ► but I'm not sure there's any like meaningful human conversation to be had at this level. [TS]
01:32:49 ◼ ► I believe you I believe you that you can articulate it and you don't even know yourself. [TS]
01:32:53 ◼ ► But I don't believe we've reached the bottom yet I don't believe we've reached the electro chemical level here. [TS]
01:32:59 ◼ ► OK well I know you like are probably smart enough paper that we've got all that's actually quite an explainable [TS]
01:33:06 ◼ ► He's got he's this kind of personality and he does that this happens and it's explainable. [TS]
01:33:11 ◼ ► I don't believe we've reached I don't believe we've reached the machine code yet of you in saying that I don't like [TS]
01:33:28 ◼ ► and they'll start talking to telling a story about how it's all connected I mean that's that what all of psychology [TS]
01:33:34 ◼ ► nonsense is kind of based on you know who can tell the story about there was lots of people could give lots of [TS]
01:33:39 ◼ ► different reasons and obviously only one of them can be right but I think one of them is right. [TS]
01:33:44 ◼ ► But this graphically I find it really interesting that from my perspective you seem to be like a machine that just [TS]
01:33:49 ◼ ► likes to work all the time on videos that you just make a huge number of videos from from our conversations I think it [TS]
01:34:00 ◼ ► RAH hours per day sitting at your computer editing it Avid or working in Photoshop directly on some project [TS]
01:34:15 ◼ ► Yeah so then my question would be why do you sit at the computer for as long as you do working on these things. [TS]
01:34:23 ◼ ► OK Well your answer would be it can't be explained it's just the chemical in an actual answer is I don't know if I know [TS]
01:34:34 ◼ ► how to articulate as well but I'm sure it's explainable. Is that the best you can give me. [TS]
01:34:41 ◼ ► I get pleasure from creation and the and making things and the more things I create and make the more pleasure I get [TS]
01:34:50 ◼ ► and the only way that I can make lots of things is to spend lots of time making things because I can't just pull them [TS]
01:35:03 ◼ ► and in my computer programs is not because I am not because I love sitting at my desk [TS]
01:35:13 ◼ ► You want to you want to have that moment of the reveal of showing people the thing that you've made. [TS]
01:35:18 ◼ ► Yeah I mean it's not like it's not around about you know pulling back the violet ever [TS]
01:35:26 ◼ ► and amazed that I could do this like I don't think I'm amazing people I make I just like the act I just like creating [TS]
01:35:32 ◼ ► things and you're always hoping everything's going to be a front page story I know that for sure. [TS]
01:35:37 ◼ ► You know I mean I've got past the point where I think everything's going to be successful [TS]
01:35:43 ◼ ► and get enjoyment from I get enjoyment I get I get massive enjoyment from findings finding out something [TS]
01:35:49 ◼ ► and knowing something and then telling that to other people and that's what I do through my video if I meet someone [TS]
01:36:00 ◼ ► I can't wait to tell other people that think and the way that I tell other people is through a video I make that [TS]
01:36:13 ◼ ► Yeah I like that I get I get pleasure from this the act of creation and the act of informing. [TS]
01:36:29 ◼ ► but it like that I think is where we hit kind of like a rock bottom line is our level everything I don't agree with I [TS]
01:36:36 ◼ ► don't think we're anywhere near rock bottom where entering the realm of things that are very difficult [TS]
01:36:42 ◼ ► and you can start getting into things like you know legacy did you have legacy issues do you have ego issues do you [TS]
01:36:51 ◼ ► have attention issues do you have that there are other positive creative people are just filled with issues. [TS]
01:36:59 ◼ ► These things aren't necessarily negative some people some people who crave attention. [TS]
01:37:04 ◼ ► Accomplish great things but right you know there are we are getting into complex things [TS]
01:37:10 ◼ ► and we're getting into personal things and therefore it becomes not only does it become difficult to grasp [TS]
01:37:18 ◼ ► It also starts getting personal to a point where you don't want to start discussing on a podcast because it might you [TS]
01:37:23 ◼ ► know delve into your issues and psyche and things that you think a personal thing doesn't mean they don't exist [TS]
01:37:34 ◼ ► Machine code whatever chemicals you know when I when is that I'm not even sure what this conversation is anymore. [TS]
