00:04:17   much to say about allergies the [TS]

00:04:19   allergies climb up inside me and then [TS]

00:04:21   they make themselves comfortable and [TS]

00:04:24   right now they're all sitting [TS]

00:04:26   like they have outfitted the inside of [TS]

00:04:29   my head with those green the lure [TS]

00:04:31   couches telling Shay's that were in all [TS]

00:04:46   couch pits comprised of in my case eight [TS]

00:04:49   distinct pieces know it's kind of like a [TS]

00:04:52   kind like watching Hollywood Squares but [TS]

00:04:54   one parts missing when did you have I I [TS]

00:04:56   thought that was a modern innovation [TS]

00:04:58   when did you have one of those I'm gonna [TS]

00:04:59   have to literally want to know what [TS]

00:05:01   we're talking about [TS]

00:05:02   I had a brown for lure pic group in [TS]

00:05:04   college that because as you know it was [TS]

00:05:07   the style of the time to be ironic in [TS]

00:05:08   the way one furnished one semi [TS]

00:05:09   development Elvis i can send you a photo [TS]

00:05:11   off and I had an eight-piece pic group [TS]

00:05:13   which means it's a large brown square [TS]

00:05:15   that we actually i remember now i got [TS]

00:05:18   getting it was finally she dropped a [TS]

00:05:20   doobie and but but but yeah pick group [TS]

00:05:35   and I i get the allergy so bad i don't [TS]

00:05:37   know if i got a cold forget that you [TS]

00:05:39   think you got a cold which is now what [TS]

00:05:41   happens is my allergies get in there and [TS]

00:05:43   may they and then my mucous membranes [TS]

00:05:46   become so that so enamored with the idea [TS]

00:05:51   that something fuzzy is going to come [TS]

00:05:54   tickle them [TS]

00:05:55   yes but they're like welcome travelers [TS]

00:05:58   it's like normal business it's like [TS]

00:06:00   Norman fell says in the graduate right [TS]

00:06:03   any one of them outside agitators get [TS]

00:06:05   outside agitators they come in and get [TS]

00:06:07   your mucus all excited they're just [TS]

00:06:09   normally there to be like the the worker [TS]

00:06:12   ants to capture various particular [TS]

00:06:16   matter in the mucous but in this case [TS]

00:06:17   they have been inciting to riot [TS]

00:06:19   yeah and the rent my regular residents [TS]

00:06:21   who were peaceful happy little normal [TS]

00:06:25   villagers apply it compliant villagers [TS]

00:06:28   who were just going about their duties [TS]

00:06:30   being non-infectious [TS]

00:06:33   they are like hey wait a minute we we [TS]

00:06:36   demand equal time infecting your mucous [TS]

00:06:40   membranes and then and now I'm like now [TS]

00:06:42   I just basically I have the players like [TS]

00:06:45   it's parade it's a beautiful sunny day [TS]

00:06:47   in seattle well at the only thing that [TS]

00:06:50   is obscuring the Sun is the clouds of [TS]

00:06:53   histamine agitating pollen that's [TS]

00:06:58   loading through the sky and I'm sitting [TS]

00:07:00   inside like a like someone with the AIDS [TS]

00:07:05   and you know a lot of people like they [TS]

00:07:09   never been so glad I couldn't reach my [TS]

00:08:16   with blood streaming out of your nose [TS]

00:08:18   yeah well so here's the latest in [TS]

00:08:21   appears the latest thought innovation ok [TS]

00:08:24   someone suggested to me the other day [TS]

00:08:26   you remember many years ago I described [TS]

00:08:28   to you the moment where someone said [TS]

00:08:31   we're a friend of mine this friend [TS]

00:08:32   Kristen said to me you are the most [TS]

00:08:34   introverted person I've ever met i just [TS]

00:08:36   noticed that some of the turning-point [TS]

00:08:38   milestone and it was it was it was a [TS]

00:08:40   thought technology that changed the way [TS]

00:08:43   that I looked at myself [TS]

00:08:45   everyday I i had a new thought [TS]

00:08:47   technology and the latest new thought [TS]

00:08:50   technology that somebody hit me to the [TS]

00:08:53   day was they said i think you have sleep [TS]

00:08:56   apnea I saw you two about this and I was [TS]

00:09:00   like sleep apnea and now I thought that [TS]

00:09:02   was a thing for fat people [TS]

00:09:05   she's that she said if there's at least [TS]

00:09:09   a couple problems but she said well you [TS]

00:09:13   are [TS]

00:09:14   Oh fat enough to be saturated to obesity [TS]

00:09:19   this is just a random person too and I [TS]

00:09:22   said she's not a random person but but [TS]

00:09:24   you know since not not somebody that [TS]

00:09:26   should have intimate knowledge of my [TS]

00:09:27   sleep miss and and so I was like how [TS]

00:09:32   sleep apnea and i'm in and like a lot of [TS]

00:09:34   mental technologies once i get ahold of [TS]

00:09:36   and I turn it around in my hand like [TS]

00:09:38   Frodo looking at the at the orb and i'm [TS]

00:09:42   looking into it and then all of a sudden [TS]

00:09:45   the flaming red I vaginas looking back [TS]

00:09:48   haha is that sauron yes or on a sore on [TS]

00:09:53   my vagina is staring at me then all of a [TS]

00:09:55   sudden I feel cold and I'm thinking do I [TS]

00:09:58   have sleep apnea because you're not a [TS]

00:10:01   terrible feeling when you feel the truth [TS]

00:10:02   descending on you look like a cold rain [TS]

00:10:05   oh I'm worst so i'm looking online and [TS]

00:10:08   is it all lines up your having that [TS]

00:10:09   Bruce Willis moment where everything is [TS]

00:10:11   flying by wright and spoilers but you're [TS]

00:10:13   reeling through like the last hundred [TS]

00:10:15   and eleven minutes and you go all right [TS]

00:10:17   hide that red door knob it's going clack [TS]

00:10:20   clack clack why can't I open the [TS]

00:10:21   basement door shit John [TS]

00:10:24   next time try to remember because i [TS]

00:10:26   usually try to get as far away from you [TS]

00:10:27   as possible when you're sleeping but out [TS]

00:10:29   of you snore [TS]

00:10:30   well so I never thought I was a snore [TS]

00:10:33   see nobody thinks they're snore right [TS]

00:10:35   now and all those years on tour where [TS]

00:10:37   Eric course and Shawn Nelson were having [TS]

00:10:40   like sawmill contests and I had to I had [TS]

00:10:43   to jump up in the middle of night and [TS]

00:10:44   grab the end of the mattress where they [TS]

00:10:47   were but they were snoring away sharing [TS]

00:10:49   a bed [TS]

00:10:50   actually I grab the end of the mattress [TS]

00:10:52   one time and and like yanked it like I [TS]

00:10:55   was like I was trying to do the [TS]

00:10:56   tablecloth trick [TS]

00:10:58   like a little Smith's yeah like an [TS]

00:11:00   illusion like yank this mattress out [TS]

00:11:02   from under them and you don't either one [TS]

00:11:05   of them woke up I can't believe it on [TS]

00:11:11   high jinks [TS]

00:11:12   butBut so anyway so lately i've been [TS]

00:11:19   bachelor that I had that is no I can't [TS]

00:11:25   imagine it any further you've heard [TS]

00:11:29   you've heard from from bystanders by [TS]

00:11:32   standards unconfirmed sources and so so [TS]

00:11:36   that so uh so I go online [TS]

00:12:44   out of bed partners because people seem [TS]

00:12:48   to stay they make that kind of noise and [TS]

00:12:51   then they appear to just simply stopped [TS]

00:14:10   people who have spent the entire night [TS]

00:14:11   with me what you say that is complicated [TS]

00:14:15   you're like a film noir yeah right so [TS]

00:14:17   like so like oh I in the middle of the [TS]

00:14:20   night you were struggling to breathe and [TS]

00:14:21   freaked me out no one has ever said that [TS]

00:14:23   to me but that doesn't mean that's not [TS]

00:14:25   happening right and so now then all of a [TS]

00:14:29   sudden I'm having all these memories and [TS]

00:14:30   it's like wait a minute am I am actually [TS]

00:14:33   remembering waking up in the middle of [TS]

00:14:35   the night struggling for breath multiple [TS]

00:14:37   multiple thousands of times over the [TS]

00:14:39   last 20 years or is this something where [TS]

00:14:41   I am where I am or false remembering [TS]

00:14:44   that I was bad touched and daycare [TS]

00:14:46   that's an open memory right and it [TS]

00:14:49   didn't actually happen i'm just it's [TS]

00:14:50   just it's power of suggestion so all day [TS]

00:14:55   today I've been sitting around thinking [TS]

00:14:56   do I have sleep apnea is that is that a [TS]

00:15:00   thing is it what is it one of those my [TS]

00:15:04   isn't one of those technologies are [TS]

00:15:06   technologies that all of a sudden i get [TS]

00:15:08   to be one of those people who's like [TS]

00:15:09   I thought I had all these problems on [TS]

00:15:13   John there's there's so much about this [TS]

00:15:15   is complicated because first of all yes [TS]

00:15:18   it is a blessing and a curse to find out [TS]

00:15:21   exactly what's wrong with you [TS]

00:15:22   that's it's so awesome and so awful and [TS]

00:15:25   and then second you got to go to a sleep [TS]

00:15:27   clinic for guy people are going to [TS]

00:15:29   people are gonna attach those little uh [TS]

00:15:31   little sticky things to you the sticky [TS]

00:15:34   pads are in there have a video probably [TS]

00:15:36   with like that really unflattering [TS]

00:15:38   greenlight they're gonna watch your flip [TS]

00:15:40   around and watch it in fast motion real [TS]

00:15:41   creepy like all i want to do is pull the [TS]

00:15:44   covers up around them and then they're [TS]

00:15:46   gonna come in 15 minutes and shape your [TS]

00:15:48   way is honored by the by the side of [TS]

00:15:50   their little console and say right haha [TS]

00:15:52   I'm gonna go get a burger [TS]

00:15:54   they're gonna come in there after maybe [TS]

00:15:55   fifteen 15 minutes to an hour they're [TS]

00:15:57   gonna come in they're gonna shake you [TS]

00:15:58   awake to the extent possible check to [TS]

00:16:00   see if you're still a lot and then say [TS]

00:16:01   that the good news is you don't have Ray [TS]

00:16:03   Manzarek answer the bags is you so [TS]

00:16:05   completely fucking half sleep apnea and [TS]

00:16:08   never did and then and then the real [TS]

00:16:09   party begins [TS]

00:16:10   you gotta get a machine to machine well [TS]

00:16:13   but before we go there okay sorry man [TS]

00:16:15   sorry [TS]

00:16:16   the last time i went with my little baby [TS]

00:16:19   girl to the baby girl doctor who's the [TS]

00:16:23   actual the doctor herself is actually a [TS]

00:16:25   full-grown woman a few doctors so on [TS]

00:16:29   little baby girl doctor and and they [TS]

00:16:34   just like they bad at each other like [TS]

00:16:37   okay I'm thinking here I started running [TS]

00:16:39   a little behind that one is still having [TS]

00:16:41   nappies so I go in and she looks she the [TS]

00:16:44   doctor looks in my baby girl's mouth [TS]

00:16:46   with a flashlight and she says does she [TS]

00:16:51   ever when you're like because i told her [TS]

00:16:54   that i sometimes haunt my daughter's [TS]

00:16:55   room in the middle of the night just sit [TS]

00:16:57   sit in a chair and listen to breathe [TS]

00:16:59   that's sweet and that it's not sweet i [TS]

00:17:02   was a question and then so the doctor [TS]

00:17:04   having already heard this was like that [TS]

00:17:07   when you are creeping around your [TS]

00:17:09   daughters are listening to breathe in [TS]

00:17:10   the middle of the night did she ever [TS]

00:17:11   stopped breathing for periods of time [TS]

00:17:12   and I was like what do you mean what I [TS]

00:17:16   mean stop breathing [TS]

00:17:17   I mean yeah so [TS]

00:17:20   times but she always starts again and [TS]

00:17:24   she was like rides well because your [TS]

00:17:27   daughter has a really large who've ulah [TS]

00:17:30   ulah fluval liver and to their every [TS]

00:17:34   only a yeah it's a little punching bag [TS]

00:17:36   that hangs down or whatever maybe it's [TS]

00:17:38   not that maybe it's tonsils there's [TS]

00:17:40   something back there in the back of your [TS]

00:17:42   throat one of the flesh is some kind of [TS]

00:17:43   throat old obstruction a throw [TS]

00:17:45   obstruction that the that that the baby [TS]

00:17:49   doctor says is is just like genetically [TS]

00:17:54   large in her and is brent probably [TS]

00:17:58   causes her to have sleep apnea Parkhead [TS]

00:18:02   and i was like huh really [TS]

00:18:05   the doctor says probably not a big deal [TS]

00:18:07   then maybe from the mouths of dates [TS]

00:18:10   literally yeah and she said a lot of [TS]

00:18:12   times what happens is as kids grow up [TS]

00:18:14   they grow into their architecture their [TS]

00:18:18   personal technology i said never [TS]

00:18:20   happened to me but but [TS]

00:18:23   so then so now I'm thinking oh maybe [TS]

00:18:25   that maybe I am genetically predisposed [TS]

00:18:28   to this maybe it isn't just that I'm [TS]

00:18:31   kind of 40 pounds overweight or maybe [TS]

00:18:35   that exacerbates a natural tendency so [TS]

00:18:37   anyway the machines yet my have I have a [TS]

00:18:43   close family member with the sleep apnea [TS]

00:18:47   and this family member has a lot of [TS]

00:18:50   luggage because this family member has [TS]

00:18:51   to take a machine anywhere that he or [TS]

00:18:54   she intends to sleep like one of those [TS]

00:18:56   things where you see people walking [TS]

00:18:58   through airports with the with the like [TS]

00:19:00   an oxygen take know that smoking right [TS]

00:19:03   now smokie might have something to do [TS]

00:19:04   with that I think weight is a thing [TS]

00:19:06   drinking drinking is a thing and I think [TS]

00:19:08   there's probably yeah I think about wait [TS]

00:19:11   I see I don't know I'm not a physician [TS]

00:19:13   as you know John but when ya thinking [TS]

00:19:17   will get into a bit but out but i think [TS]

00:19:19   i think what it does is you put this [TS]

00:19:20   real freaky looking thing over your nose [TS]

00:19:23   and I guess it helps you from seeming [TS]

00:19:25   like you're dead to to your bedmate but [TS]

00:19:28   but but you know here's the other thing [TS]

00:19:29   John and I don't you know I don't [TS]

00:19:32   diagnose you here I don't know anything [TS]

00:19:33   about all the [TS]

00:19:34   these metal things you're talking about [TS]

00:19:36   but I do know that sleep apnea i believe [TS]

00:19:39   will make you not in the same way that [TS]

00:19:42   you don't know you snore one knows does [TS]

00:19:45   not know one source [TS]

00:19:46   what does not know that one has sleep [TS]

00:19:47   apnea you one is also not know how [TS]

00:19:50   poorly one sleeps right so you're waking [TS]

00:19:53   up there is the kind of waking up and [TS]

00:19:55   I've done is I've tracked my sleep with [TS]

00:19:57   the dingus and and yeah well I'm [TS]

00:19:58   sleeping all i gotta do this for [TS]

00:19:59   sleeping [TS]

00:20:00   where did you go to sleep tracking bingo [TS]

00:20:02   there's all kinds you can get it doesn't [TS]

00:20:03   talk about that you know it'll tell you [TS]

00:20:05   how well you're sleeping and becomes [TS]

00:20:06   like a video game we try to get better [TS]

00:20:07   and better sleep [TS]

00:20:09   yeah and so on so much so every time I [TS]

00:20:11   go to the doctor now always going to say [TS]

00:20:14   though it is that is that the width is [TS]

00:20:17   that you don't know like it just seems [TS]

00:20:19   to me that you're not a great sleeper [TS]

00:20:21   right now well that's what that's what I [TS]

00:20:22   mean every time I go to the doctor they [TS]

00:20:24   say do you have problems sleeping how [TS]

00:20:26   how how do you sleep and I always feel [TS]

00:20:29   like saying I'm asleep [TS]

00:20:31   how do I know yeah but i mean i don't [TS]

00:20:33   like to go to sleep and then once i do [TS]

00:20:37   go to sleep I don't like to wake you [TS]

00:20:39   will feel rested when you wake up [TS]

00:20:41   no see that's what do people feel rested [TS]

00:20:45   with my wake up [TS]

00:20:46   well back to my dingus you know the [TS]

00:20:48   dingus tells you basically have a very [TS]

00:20:51   kind of describe this briefly because it [TS]

00:20:53   is it's might be semi useful i really [TS]

00:20:55   want to hear about this i think i've had [TS]

00:20:56   two or three different guys for doing [TS]

00:20:58   this and is actually an iphone app that [TS]

00:21:01   you can use for this as well as soon as [TS]

00:21:03   that work well do you really want to [TS]

00:21:05   know I i already sleep with my iphone [TS]

00:21:08   yeah that can figure out what you do is [TS]

00:21:11   so iíve used a thing where you were a [TS]

00:21:13   thing on your wrist and I had a really [TS]

00:21:14   stupid looking watch you could do this [TS]

00:21:16   with that wasn't useful i've had a thing [TS]

00:21:18   called a Fitbit that you can wear on [TS]

00:21:19   your wrist but this one is that the best [TS]

00:21:23   option that I found it takes a little [TS]

00:21:24   bit the ball I its that's right you are [TS]

00:21:27   Pikachu you put this so it's this app [TS]

00:21:30   and you plug in your iphone overnight [TS]

00:21:32   you lay this thing on the corner of your [TS]

00:21:35   bed kind of near pillow-like network and [TS]

00:21:37   radiate your dingus [TS]

00:21:38   it's a it's a separate finger its own [TS]

00:21:40   iPhones an iphone app that uses the [TS]

00:21:42   accelerometer to detect motion [TS]

00:21:44   so you calibrate it by moving around you [TS]

00:21:46   move so you'd flip it for the first time [TS]

00:21:48   you flip over from your back to your [TS]

00:21:51   stomach and see if it goes and so if you [TS]

00:21:53   hear that you know it's working [TS]

00:21:55   so then you just say ok I'm going to bed [TS]

00:21:57   turning this thing on and when you wake [TS]

00:21:59   up in the morning and i'll show you this [TS]

00:22:00   graph of how much you moved [TS]

00:22:03   whoa and so basically it tells you the [TS]

00:22:05   show you this this crap that's actually [TS]

00:22:07   really instructional and if you do this [TS]

00:22:08   thing for a month he did for two weeks [TS]

00:22:10   to talk a lot of good for a month and a [TS]

00:22:12   little Tony like for some reason I get [TS]

00:22:14   the least and poorest sleep on sunday [TS]

00:22:16   nights like I don't know why but that's [TS]

00:22:17   just like that's a pattern regular yeah [TS]

00:22:21   I the LORD yeah but but what it does is [TS]

00:22:23   it will show you like for example you'll [TS]

00:22:24   see you'll see you you know everybody's [TS]

00:22:26   got their own patterns for sleep with [TS]

00:22:28   you have anxiety about monday i think [TS]

00:22:29   anxiety about literally everything [TS]

00:22:31   yeah I know but you have extra Monday's [TS]

00:22:33   is that appointment hundred percent even [TS]

00:22:35   on the job still yeah yeah it could be [TS]

00:22:37   could be also that's like when i watch [TS]

00:22:38   movies maybe but what it does is it will [TS]

00:22:40   show you think of it this way to get [TS]

00:22:42   like if you want to think of it simply [TS]

00:22:43   in three basic states there's the kind [TS]

00:22:45   of deep sleep [TS]

00:22:46   there's a kind of like the waking sleep [TS]

00:22:48   i guess so yeah I like their first four [TS]

00:22:50   records and then you wake up a little [TS]

00:22:52   bit and then there's a big spike for [TS]

00:22:53   when you moved enough that you really [TS]

00:22:55   wake so if you're going to take a leak [TS]

00:22:56   you're gonna see a giant spike right I'm [TS]

00:22:58   saying to you is this could be i will [TS]

00:23:00   send you a link to this it could be very [TS]

00:23:01   instructional and it will cost anything [TS]

00:23:03   you have to wear something on your nose [TS]

00:23:04   but it will show you how much you stir [TS]

00:23:07   and and anyway i think that could be [TS]

00:23:10   really it is constantly like one of the [TS]

00:23:13   reasons that I don't like to sleep with [TS]

00:23:15   somebody else in my bed so many reasons [TS]

00:23:18   there's not out of what i say sleep with [TS]

00:23:20   i am not using them [TS]

00:23:22   that's not a euphemism now having the [TS]

00:23:24   sexual congress [TS]

00:23:26   I mean actually being asleep in a place [TS]

00:23:28   with somebody else also sleep so weird [TS]

00:23:31   it's really weird like that i don't know [TS]

00:23:34   what they're like in the old days where [TS]

00:23:36   you had to keep warmer or or you had to [TS]

00:23:39   shelter against bears I could see why [TS]

00:23:41   you would all piled together in a cave [TS]

00:23:43   but now you could be separate places [TS]

00:23:46   like your soccer players that are [TS]

00:23:48   getting ready to other you gotta stay [TS]

00:23:50   warm that's one thing right right we [TS]

00:23:51   don't we don't put next to each other [TS]

00:23:52   like while we sleep next to each other [TS]

00:23:54   thankee Thank You exactly well anyway so [TS]

00:23:57   one of the reasons i don't like to do [TS]

00:23:58   that is first of all the people are warm [TS]

00:24:00   and I'm trying to touch you but another [TS]

00:24:04   reason is that when ice when I sleep if [TS]

00:24:06   I go to sleep in a bed when I wake up in [TS]

00:24:09   the morning it is like that bed is [TS]

00:24:12   Oklahoma and I was a club f5 tornado the [TS]

00:24:19   blankets are not only she-she-she the [TS]

00:24:23   trailer park and she is literally a [TS]

00:24:26   trailer park [TS]

00:24:28   there's nothing left of her except her [TS]

00:24:29   foundation but like the blanket is not [TS]

00:24:33   on the blanket often times does 5 or 6 [TS]

00:24:38   360 is in the night you know the lyrics [TS]

00:24:42   are you a flipper [TS]

00:24:43   oh the Janoskians flipper but like a [TS]

00:24:45   spinner and sometimes I'll wake up and [TS]

00:24:48   my head is down at the feat mø and the [TS]

00:24:51   I can't sleep I hate hotels because they [TS]

00:24:53   all use such cheap sheets now except for [TS]

00:24:56   the really expensive ones and so that [TS]

00:24:58   did the bottom sheet is ripped off the [TS]

00:25:00   mattress pad is ripped off [TS]

00:25:02   I'm sleeping on a bear officers not [TS]

00:25:04   dividing with with your back [TS]

00:25:06   yeah I'm night fighting with the bed [TS]

00:25:07   that's exactly what i'm doing like to [TS]

00:25:10   try trash beds and so if there's another [TS]

00:25:14   person sleeping in the bed i'm so [TS]

00:25:15   self-conscious about now that even [TS]

00:25:18   injuring them that I could that I almost [TS]

00:25:20   never go to sleep I just lay there and [TS]

00:25:22   stay there and and silently curse [TS]

00:25:25   humanity curse the fact that I that I [TS]

00:25:28   ever liked a person enough to have ended [TS]

00:25:30   up in this untenable scenario where we [TS]

00:25:33   are we're in a bed together [TS]

00:25:35   John that's that that society you know [TS]

00:25:37   it is society i agree that they don't [TS]

00:25:40   have those problems in soviet russia may [TS]

00:25:44   I hate to say and I'm not a clinician [TS]

00:25:45   but yeah I mean if you're 31 well I you [TS]

00:25:49   know I do what I can we've got a much [TS]

00:25:51   nicer inflatable mattress now by the way [TS]

00:25:53   and can I just say I don't be a dick [TS]

00:25:55   about it but in retrospect this could be [TS]

00:25:57   my bruce willis moment maybe the fact [TS]

00:25:58   that our previous two inflatable [TS]

00:26:01   mattresses are are like a fucking taco [TS]

00:26:03   bell taco or because you which closes [TS]

00:26:06   the spinner i'm just bitter don't tell [TS]

00:26:08   us there's a skinny lady [TS]

00:26:10   I thought a spinner was some I thought [TS]

00:26:12   it was a brother of variety of UFO you [TS]

00:26:14   heard the term spinner for a skinny lady [TS]

00:26:17   yeah midnight maybe it's a talent you [TS]

00:26:37   those got a high center of gravity [TS]

00:26:39   yeah I'm just saying you might have been [TS]

00:26:40   the one who fucked up our mattresses but [TS]

00:26:42   anyway that's all beside a lot of things [TS]

00:26:43   I probably responsible for No Child I [TS]

00:26:46   don't want you know really taking you [TS]

00:26:51   don't take anything for that is that [TS]

00:27:16   seek to alleviate symptoms I feel like [TS]

00:27:19   more often than not the symptoms are [TS]

00:27:21   something that you deserve and we used [TS]

00:39:54   just wasn't near an exit [TS]

00:39:56   it wasn't near an exit and there a [TS]

00:39:57   reason that high the reason i was [TS]

00:42:14   because I because up until that point I [TS]

00:42:16   I my drugs were all hippie drugs you [TS]

00:42:20   said in the past that you if I may in in [TS]

00:42:22   the past you if i understand correctly [TS]

00:42:23   you have preferred the gown facing drugs [TS]

00:42:26   down facing drugs right or like [TS]

00:42:29   mind-blowing drugs but I i was never [TS]

00:42:32   white white powder-like [TS]

00:42:34   performance-enhancing drugs that was [TS]

00:42:36   intact it was it just wasn't where I was [TS]

00:42:38   coming from [TS]

00:42:39   I felt like those were greased or drugs [TS]

00:42:42   those were drugs that works for the [TS]

00:42:43   socialist that's for the socials exactly [TS]

00:42:46   that's for people who pop their collars [TS]

00:42:52   talking about and I didn't want to end [TS]

00:42:53   up that I didn't want to end up getting [TS]

00:42:55   pegged at a hotel room in vegas and [TS]

00:42:58   that's a lot less likely to happen to [TS]

00:43:01   you if you're like a mushroom take her [TS]

00:43:05   you know you don't get pegged on [TS]

00:43:06   mushrooms [TS]

00:43:07   you're not gonna get so strung out on [TS]

00:43:09   taking mushrooms that year ended up [TS]

00:43:11   getting pegged in a hotel room for [TS]

00:43:12   right and that is basically said [TS]

00:43:16   sometimes you sound a little like [TS]

00:43:17   physical stuff that's basically the guy [TS]

00:43:20   that's got the mushrooms yeah he doesn't [TS]

00:43:22   want to pay you either [TS]

00:43:39   to do on mushrooms you don't want to you [TS]

00:43:42   don't want to lick and have get pegged [TS]

00:43:44   or before be a bigger so I mean you say [TS]

00:43:46   she's just to trace back for a minute [TS]

00:43:48   you're in the cab with that guy [TS]

00:43:49   obviously now you yes i'm going to talk [TS]

00:43:52   about you you know broken the ice a [TS]

00:43:54   little bit did you arrive was there some [TS]

00:43:55   kind of an equilibrium with what you [TS]

00:43:57   shared with each other did you know [TS]

00:43:59   obviously he probably had the marijuana [TS]

00:44:00   before but yeah boy that's a no she did [TS]

00:44:03   you take it right there you have the [TS]

00:44:04   cross stop right there [TS]

00:44:06   yeah yeah baby give me give me some and [TS]

00:44:08   and i wanna commingled know that 10 yeah [TS]

00:44:14   those we have more than one I had a [TS]

00:44:16   couple okay thatthat's a therapeutic [TS]

00:44:18   dose yeah it was enough that i was [TS]

00:44:20   subject to this point where it's like [TS]

00:44:22   martinis you know like yeah that's like [TS]

00:44:25   Dorothy Parker says you know i mean i [TS]

00:44:27   remember the exact quote because I take [TS]

00:44:29   adderall but better but yeah you know [TS]

00:44:31   what's not enough in whatever is too [TS]

00:44:33   many and if you have a new people who [TS]

00:44:36   would take 45 and then I think you [TS]

00:44:38   probably build up a tolerance [TS]

00:44:40   well apparently you know the thing is my [TS]

00:44:41   piece of ephedrine was fair it was [TS]

00:44:43   long-lived and in retrospect really [TS]

00:44:46   quite responsible compared to a lot of [TS]

00:44:47   people i discovered that the fucktards [TS]

00:44:49   who were ruining it for everybody [TS]

00:44:51   where the people who didn't know what [TS]

00:44:52   they were doing they would go out and [TS]

00:44:54   they would take five or six like they [TS]

00:44:57   were st. Joseph's baby aspirin and I [TS]

00:44:59   think two is responsible amount to you [TS]

00:45:01   know make a lot of courtroom exhibits in [TS]

00:45:03   my experience [TS]

00:45:04   well but I had a lot of got a lot done [TS]

00:45:05   John one of the things about speed at [TS]

00:45:07   least for me is like the whistling the [TS]

00:45:09   high pitch whistling in your head that I [TS]

00:45:11   would think that would get a lot louder [TS]

00:45:12   when when you took five I would want to [TS]

00:45:15   be that all I don't like I don't like [TS]

00:45:17   feeling my heart beat at all right right [TS]

00:45:19   i don't like really feeling it and I [TS]

00:45:21   don't when you take enough edren for a [TS]

00:45:23   while in my experience you get this [TS]

00:45:25   thing where like [TS]

00:45:26   you feel your heartbeat one number three [TS]

00:45:30   you feel alerting in your heartbeat but [TS]

00:45:33   number two this is the weirdest part you [TS]

00:45:36   know that you're about to feel a lurch [TS]

00:45:38   and your heartbeat [TS]

00:45:39   mmm seen out now with you and your down [TS]

00:45:42   facing Melvin drugs you probably never [TS]

00:45:43   got that but you were lucky to feel your [TS]

00:45:46   heart continues to beat amen [TS]

00:45:48   but i but that began me on a course [TS]

00:45:51   where the next step is because up until [TS]

00:45:52   that point in time [TS]

00:45:54   people used to our offer me cocaine all [TS]

00:45:56   the time and I would always say no [TS]

00:45:57   because i was taking well ya tengo there [TS]

00:46:02   was no good way that that was going to [TS]

00:46:04   end for me but then after this after [TS]

00:46:08   this trucker speed experience I was like [TS]

00:46:09   hmm i'll try your cocaine [TS]

00:46:12   oh it was it was gateway a pill was it [TS]

00:46:15   absolutely was the man that it was like [TS]

00:46:17   okay speedy drugs let's see what let's [TS]

00:46:19   see where this leads headed by case that [TS]

00:46:22   led into no good place I never I never [TS]

00:46:25   ended up getting pegged or doing any [TS]

00:46:26   taking in the in any kind of Las Vegas [TS]

00:46:28   scenario RT now but well no that's the [TS]

00:46:32   thing I've been now Jon get sleep at [TS]

00:47:33   just like just like so focused and you [TS]

00:47:36   would need you need a precision laser [TS]

00:47:38   laser to have cut this thing out because [TS]

00:47:42   you made a rococo stencil it was like I [TS]

00:47:45   was I was drawing i was drawing things I [TS]

00:47:48   was drawing things that a single bed of [TS]

00:47:50   pencil was not was with too thick to [TS]

00:47:53   make the lines that I had in mind [TS]

00:47:55   and then when I looked at it later i was [TS]

00:47:56   like what the flock drugs i still have [TS]

00:48:00   it i kept i would love to see that and [TS]

00:48:02   can I just say you would have fit right [TS]

00:48:04   in in our pic group because because [TS]

00:48:06   there was a lot of ephedrine and then [TS]

00:48:07   there was a lot of a lot of the [TS]

00:48:09   marijuana but you guys didn't go though [TS]

00:48:12   you guys didn't go in the direction of [TS]

00:48:13   smoking weed on the suburbs I and no no [TS]

00:48:16   not at all [TS]

00:48:17   I i think i told you once i'm done [TS]

00:48:19   cocaine exactly once really did [TS]

00:48:22   absolutely nothing for me [TS]

00:48:23   sure and it just it's you know what it [TS]

00:48:27   is maybe I don't know it would be like [TS]

00:48:28   dating somebody who's exactly like you [TS]

00:48:31   know what I mean like a like I don't [TS]

00:48:33   need more of this right and and you know [TS]

00:48:36   and there's also the element of they [TS]

00:48:37   know as Bill Cosby says and himself you [TS]

00:48:40   know you know you know i just take this [TS]

00:48:43   and it makes me more like myself what if [TS]

00:48:45   you're an asshole like that's what [TS]

00:48:46   worries me like if I had access to [TS]

00:48:48   cocaine a guy that would be a Merlin I [TS]

00:48:52   can't live with [TS]

00:48:53   yeah we should i do that we should get [TS]

00:48:55   the crack thing but i would like to talk [TS]

00:48:56   about that at some point there's no [TS]

00:48:58   there's nobody that is made better by [TS]

00:49:00   cocaine everybody thinks they are yet [TS]

00:49:03   the profundity of a heavy Rick games [TS]

00:49:06   there is nobody made better by it and as [TS]

00:49:09   you as you move either as you know [TS]

00:49:11   nobody ever not made no they're not made [TS]

00:49:14   better they they they they think that [TS]

00:49:17   they are sparkling when really they are [TS]

00:49:19   you know John god dammit your heart on a [TS]

00:49:23   lot of seventies and eighties albums [TS]

00:49:25   because as I think you have shown [TS]

00:49:27   conclusively well what is your quote [TS]

00:49:30   that they're all literally made of [TS]

00:49:32   cocaine [TS]

00:49:33   yeah and especially especially the [TS]

00:49:35   Eagles right [TS]

00:49:35   Hotel California made of cocaine at [TS]

00:49:38   fleetwood mac rumors made of cocaine and [TS]

00:49:40   that lets go okay you know her nose [TS]

00:49:42   literally fell off after that album know [TS]

00:49:44   you know here's the here's that the the [TS]

00:49:46   terrible side of the story which is the [TS]

00:49:50   Fleetwood Mac is playing tonight in [TS]

00:49:52   tacoma kind i'm not there and the other [TS]

00:49:54   than probably anything no it was recent [TS]

00:49:57   I'm not tear is that yeah my friends in [TS]

00:50:00   the cave singers tweeted earlier tonight [TS]

00:50:02   that they they were pretty sure that [TS]

00:50:03   Stevie Nicks was at the tacoma hill [TS]

00:50:05   watching catch cash cab before the show [TS]

00:50:08   which seemed seems like exactly right [TS]

00:50:10   but I refuse to see Fleetwood Mac [TS]

00:50:12   without christine mcvie and a lot of [TS]

00:50:15   people went down on ya lot of people are [TS]

00:50:16   down on me for saying that christine [TS]

00:50:18   mcvie is the George Harrison Fleetwood [TS]

00:50:20   mag I don't disagree with that but I [TS]

00:50:24   think she's I think she's key I think [TS]

00:50:26   she's crucial [TS]

00:50:27   oh yes okay yeah yeah just just in terms [TS]

00:50:31   of being a way to offset those other big [TS]

00:50:36   personalities like i don't know i don't [TS]

00:50:37   like shy like you yeah I really like you [TS]

00:50:40   make loving fun and I like I like maybe [TS]

00:50:43   three or four four songs but she's kind [TS]

00:50:46   of a skipper for me [TS]

00:50:48   oh I really I really like like three [TS]

00:50:51   Fleetwood Mac records a lot [TS]

00:50:53   yeah I like you fast-forward through the [TS]

00:50:56   christine mcvie song smile [TS]

00:50:58   ok rumors and i'm sorry mp3 generation [TS]

00:51:02   rivers is just about perfect i know that [TS]

00:51:04   could hardly be more cliche it's like [TS]

00:51:06   saying i liked the Beatles the rumors [TS]

00:51:08   rumors is a really really good record [TS]

00:51:11   and into your point John the thing that [TS]

00:51:12   you are arguably best at sequencing it's [TS]

00:51:15   a very well sequence record yes [TS]

00:51:17   don't you think that would have been a [TS]

00:51:19   different record if you listen to [TS]

00:51:21   fleetwood mac's rumors on shuffle it's a [TS]

00:51:23   different different album altogether you [TS]

00:51:25   put that record on and you start driving [TS]

00:51:28   yeah and then you you're going north of [TS]

00:51:32   this book and she gave them and then you [TS]

00:51:35   get to decide to you flip the tape right [TS]

00:51:37   around chewelah remember [TS]

00:51:42   you can flip flip again depending on the [TS]

00:51:45   edge like an insomniac ready to go bomb [TS]

00:51:48   haha that route down Mick chula tavern [TS]

00:51:53   but I mean that but yeah but I don't [TS]

00:51:56   want to go see I don't want to go I want [TS]

00:51:59   to see them Halen because she opposed [TS]

00:52:01   wolo the fuck this is like three [TS]

00:52:04   episodes it is she a punchy so she's not [TS]

00:52:06   involved anymore she doesn't want to be [TS]

00:52:08   a part of it and I think it's because [TS]

00:52:09   Lindsey Buckingham is such a fucking nut [TS]

00:52:13   bc i do not think he is off the cocaine [TS]

00:52:16   I think he's still on the cocaine he is [TS]

00:52:18   a very very frustrating character to me [TS]

00:52:20   and I think that he's very frustrated [TS]

00:52:22   and christine mcvie I don't want to [TS]

00:52:23   bring everybody he seems like he's one [TS]

00:52:25   of those guys that like he and you know [TS]

00:52:28   if your listener Lindsay like I'm i hate [TS]

00:52:31   to say this because first of all he is [TS]

00:52:33   he is one of my top 18 favorite guitar [TS]

00:52:38   players and you're an amazing guitar [TS]

00:52:39   player Lindsay I'm going to assume that [TS]

00:52:41   you're likely such a flaming like [TS]

00:52:44   empirically flaming asshole he's just [TS]

00:52:46   seems like the worst guy in the world [TS]

00:52:47   and every note that he's ever played on [TS]

00:52:50   a Fleetwood Mac record i can have no I [TS]

00:52:52   can't find a thing about it [TS]

00:52:54   even when he plays live on an acoustic [TS]

00:52:56   guitar I don't think he's ever hit a [TS]

00:52:58   sour note [TS]

00:52:59   he's kicking ass right and left his [TS]

00:53:01   don't have a solo record these four [TS]

00:53:03   years ago and and it's it's impactful [TS]

00:53:06   he's so coked up and yet he's like he's [TS]

00:53:10   like it just just laying in these [TS]

00:53:12   impeccable little bits and yet I can't [TS]

00:53:16   find it [TS]

00:53:16   I cannot find a single nice thing to say [TS]

00:53:18   about him as a as a person it's not that [TS]

00:53:20   he's ever done anything bad it's just [TS]

00:53:22   that every interview I've ever watched [TS]

00:53:24   them like Oh what an asshole [TS]

00:53:26   oh my god anywhere even have this [TS]

00:53:28   conversation and all knowing what we [TS]

00:53:29   know about Fleetwood Mac having watched [TS]

00:53:31   the classic albums episode as I know we [TS]

00:53:34   both have numerous times like it if I [TS]

00:53:36   hope even hesitated for a minute to [TS]

00:53:38   think that anybody in that band what [TS]

00:53:40   would have I don't know how you would [TS]

00:53:42   even ever talk to somebody again in that [TS]

00:53:44   van got seven figures i know that he's [TS]

00:53:46   listening and I feel bad about it [TS]

00:53:48   because we we have we have criticized [TS]

00:53:50   some of our listeners before and a lot [TS]

00:53:52   of them have stuck around okay [TS]

00:53:54   okay well let me just give you my bona [TS]

00:53:55   fides I don't know if you followed the [TS]

00:53:57   link i sent you a link [TS]

00:53:59   absolutely well doesn't matter i just [TS]

00:54:02   want to say this delivery personally [TS]

00:54:03   oh yeah I'm glad you're here for this [TS]

00:54:04   but I sent you a link to a a mash-up and [TS]

00:54:09   as you know i'm not a mash-up fan but I [TS]

00:54:11   sent you a link to attract from a [TS]

00:54:13   mash-up album called feed the animals by [TS]

00:54:17   girl talk and there's one section of [TS]

00:54:19   this one song where they take as [TS]

00:54:23   something Peppa one of those black robes [TS]

00:54:26   with blonde hair bands sure and and [TS]

00:54:28   layer it over the solo from gypsy oh I [TS]

00:54:34   think I might have heard that and that's [TS]

00:54:36   so low it tells a little story does you [TS]

00:54:40   know walk you through it [TS]

00:54:41   think about like gum and what's this one [TS]

00:54:47   called you know that the rumor song but [TS]

00:54:51   think about his his finger picking only [TS]

00:54:53   an asshole could finger pick that well [TS]

00:54:54   well this is the problem I think with [TS]

00:54:57   music is that you can be terrible [TS]

00:55:00   yeah as a person and and be connected to [TS]

00:55:05   the column of light you can inflict it [TS]

00:55:09   all about that it seems like you're no [TS]

00:55:11   well I mean I am it is because I mean [TS]

00:55:15   you've got access to the corridors of [TS]

01:10:07   the space of an hour to it really like [TS]

01:10:11   in a way was kind of devastating to [TS]

01:10:13   realize that somebody can make something [TS]

01:10:16   really beautiful a song like that that [TS]

01:10:18   is that that I felt like it wasn't just [TS]

01:10:21   the performance but the song itself had [TS]

01:10:23   something in it that showed until like [TS]

01:10:27   like humanity humanity three precisely [TS]

01:10:30   somebody perceiving something true and [TS]

01:10:34   then to sit and see that same person [TS]

01:10:36   incapable of perceiving something so [TS]

01:10:38   simple [TS]

01:10:40   as like their actual place in the world [TS]

01:10:43   rather than the one that was being so [TS]

01:10:45   reinforced by the by the entourage and [TS]

01:10:48   by the idea and I mean I i I've had that [TS]

01:10:54   feeling walking out of a club after [TS]

01:10:56   soundcheck walking around town and [TS]

01:10:58   feeling like everybody in this town is [TS]

01:11:00   talking about me okay and then realizing [TS]

01:11:03   that everybody in that town is talking [TS]

01:11:04   about the baseball game [TS]

01:11:06   there's really only a few hundred people [TS]

01:11:08   that are talking about you but it's also [TS]

01:11:10   i mean i guess this is embedded in the [TS]

01:11:12   story but it's all it's kind of funny [TS]

01:11:14   that like you're the only person there [TS]

01:11:15   in the end up in the balcony be okay I'm [TS]

01:11:25   great little much for the Humanities I [TS]

01:11:27   feel amazing [TS]

01:11:28   yeah i would be holding vigil in person [TS]

01:11:30   there for this very humane performance [TS]

01:11:32   like you have this like weirdly singular [TS]

01:11:35   experience of apart from the you know [TS]

01:11:38   Dutch sound guys you're the only person [TS]

01:11:40   there we know more last to see this [TS]

01:11:43   great performance but then in the midst [TS]

01:11:46   of this busy leading square or whatever [TS]

01:11:49   like you you have the same time you [TS]

01:11:52   watched a completely different probably [TS]

01:11:55   unintentional performance not of like a [TS]

01:11:58   song but of like a of that person's [TS]

01:12:01   interior bullshit like is it weird like [TS]

01:12:05   you were the audience for something [TS]

01:12:06   really amazing and then you're the [TS]

01:12:08   audience for something really [TS]

01:12:09   off-putting [TS]

01:12:10   yeah and it was either like he would [TS]

01:12:12   never think of that guy's another artist [TS]

01:12:14   he's just some some dickhead and [TS]

01:12:16   amsterdam and he treats him like a [TS]

01:12:17   fucking hobo yeah right as well I'm [TS]

01:12:19   sorry that that's really lame [TS]

01:12:21   it felt like that time when I was [TS]

01:12:24   sitting in the bathtub eating a sandwich [TS]

01:12:27   having just smoked a pot this is a long [TS]

01:12:30   time ago [TS]

01:12:40   sub in there [TS]

01:12:41   the thing about smoking pot in the [TS]

01:12:43   bathtub it is the thing I miss the most [TS]

01:12:45   of all the drugs and really is to stick [TS]

01:12:49   to cinema bathtub and smoke pot and eat [TS]

01:12:51   a sandwich [TS]

01:12:52   that's right in the pocket for you it's [TS]

01:12:54   just it was so amazingly brings [TS]

01:12:56   everything to get there doesn't it and I [TS]

01:12:57   had to take the pot out of the equation [TS]

01:12:59   because it pot is a bad it's really in [TS]

01:13:02   mood [TS]

01:13:02   Emma in the full scheme of things part [TS]

01:13:04   is a net bad now it's so it's a net bad [TS]

01:13:07   that bad but it's looking like such a [TS]

01:13:10   good idea and it really doesn't [TS]

01:13:11   and you know in their emissaries ISIL in [TS]

01:13:13   their fifties that and 62 still think [TS]

01:13:16   it's a good idea people smoke pot every [TS]

01:13:17   day im so much punch on and as I've said [TS]

01:13:20   many times I never I never woke up in [TS]

01:13:22   jail and thought it was pot I was on pot [TS]

01:13:27   last night and now I'm in jail like pot [TS]

01:13:31   way but boy pot is bad but it's sure [TS]

01:13:35   great to smoke pot to be a better but [TS]

01:13:38   one time I was sitting in my bathtub and [TS]

01:13:40   there was and and i had put a load of [TS]

01:13:43   laundry in downstairs mlo and the the [TS]

01:13:48   washing machine was on the spin cycle [TS]

01:13:51   and it was going to need ed in absolutes [TS]

01:13:56   doing this like spin cycle noise from [TS]

01:13:58   the basement but it it was it was [TS]

01:14:00   echoing through the house it was [TS]

01:14:02   vibrating the house and I'm lying there [TS]

01:14:05   in the bathtub I'm kind of enjoying this [TS]

01:14:06   vibration of the washing machine kind of [TS]

01:14:10   freaking out downstairs and there's a [TS]

01:14:13   jet flying over like a jumbo jet on its [TS]

01:14:17   way [TS]

01:14:17   just somewhere far away somewhere else [TS]

01:14:21   where in the world full of people that [TS]

01:14:24   were going to enjoy Seoul Korea and its [TS]

01:14:27   high up in the sky and for a period of [TS]

01:14:31   about 20 seconds the sound of the [TS]

01:14:35   faraway jet and the rumbling of the [TS]

01:14:38   washing machine created a harmony that [TS]

01:14:43   was perceptible only to me in my bathtub [TS]

01:14:45   in my stoner bathtub and it was a [TS]

01:14:48   perfect chord was a light like it was [TS]

01:14:51   for you it was absolutely for me because [TS]

01:14:54   it was only nobody else even in a [TS]

01:14:56   slightly different bathtub they would [TS]

01:14:57   have not heard the same thing if you [TS]

01:14:59   were in the kitchen you wouldn't have [TS]

01:15:00   heard it but sitting here in this space [TS]

01:15:04   it was a perfect mix and it was you know [TS]

01:15:07   the but the sound of a jet overhead is a [TS]

01:15:09   cord of itself it's not just a single [TS]

01:15:11   note it's just it's a whole panoply of [TS]

01:15:14   notes and the washing machine was making [TS]

01:15:17   both rhythm and and Accord and it's all [TS]

01:15:22   connected and just fill this filled the [TS]

01:15:26   space with this pink cloud of this [TS]

01:15:28   perfect harmonic and I was like boom [TS]

01:19:51   there is something interesting and cool [TS]

01:19:52   and i went in there [TS]

01:19:53   robert longo and there was a complete [TS]

01:19:55   complete library of high-ranking [TS]

01:20:00   Scientology books you know that it was [TS]

01:20:04   like a it was like not a box set because [TS]

01:20:07   there were too many books but it was [TS]

01:20:09   like it came with its own cabinet that [TS]

01:20:12   was painted white and looked like one of [TS]

01:20:14   those egg chairs like it had a pedestal [TS]

01:20:17   and magic doors and it was all the pages [TS]

01:20:21   were all in gold [TS]

01:20:23   the thing is she's not a false-flag I I [TS]

01:20:25   can't believe that's allowed to stand [TS]

01:20:27   that's the thing it was incredible i [TS]

01:20:29   looked at the sense that his son John if [TS]

01:20:31   you know the first or second thing about [TS]

01:20:33   when you say the name [TS]

01:20:35   I don't know anything but if you know [TS]

01:20:37   the first or second thing about that [TS]

01:20:39   group about that is unbelievable that a [TS]

01:20:42   chair would exist [TS]

01:20:43   well and so I'm looking at a time like [TS]

01:20:44   this seems like a thing I should have [TS]

01:20:46   challenged i don't know no I don't ever [TS]

01:20:48   want to I don't want to ever read one of [TS]

01:20:50   these but it seems like the Ark of the [TS]

01:20:51   Covenant if you have it that makes the [TS]

01:20:53   Necronomicon of a fucking candy cane [TS]

01:20:55   don't even get near you know it's like [TS]

01:20:57   the protocols of the Elders of Zion god [TS]

01:20:59   that's the murdered man it's fucking [TS]

01:21:01   chewing gum next to that shit so I [TS]

01:21:03   looked at it I looked on the chaplain [TS]

01:21:05   have taken you know twelve hundred [TS]

01:21:07   dollars variable thickness because who [TS]

01:21:10   else is gonna have one monkey's paw John [TS]

01:21:12   if i guess i could buy it and just give [TS]

01:21:14   it to John plans Berg and I would have [TS]

01:21:16   done my that would have been my job for [TS]

01:21:18   the world that would have justified my [TS]

01:21:20   existence and then I was like why can't [TS]

01:21:23   I can't do it but I so I walked out of [TS]

01:21:25   there and I felt like I had been inside [TS]

01:21:27   the inner intersect of the Mormon [TS]

01:21:30   Tabernacle Choir whenever I had seemed [TS]

01:21:32   it's that they had opened the come [TS]

01:21:34   no I had seen the thing it seemed the [TS]

01:21:37   books are you pretty sure they were real [TS]

01:21:41   oh it was fully real this was like a do [TS]

01:21:43   you think they would really have that [TS]

01:21:44   our customers a John we've got all this [TS]

01:21:47   out [TS]

01:21:48   history looks fingers people to have it [TS]

01:21:50   but how would they have known OTC like [TS]

01:21:52   you get above like you get to a certain [TS]

01:21:55   OT level [TS]

01:21:57   yeah you get above I think OT 30 35 that [TS]

01:22:01   is some serious fucking shit because you [TS]

01:22:03   get to the you get the level of like I [TS]

01:22:05   think the t3 or 85 is where LRH first [TS]

01:22:09   talks about like how if you look at this [TS]

01:22:12   and you're not ready [TS]

01:22:15   it will literally kill you whoa that is [TS]

01:22:19   it it is the Ark of the Covenant if it [TS]

01:22:22   melts your face the the Ark of the [TS]

01:22:24   Covenant fucking putt-putt golf man this [TS]

01:22:27   is like 40 tiger woods with a very high [TS]

01:22:29   tone level [TS]

01:22:30   well so i don't know i did not know [TS]

01:22:32   enough not to look at it I looked at it [TS]

01:22:34   a lot but every time I opened it read [TS]

01:22:37   the words it just seemed like i was [TS]

01:22:39   reading the owners manual for a more [TS]

01:22:41   like a Betamax it stop right there [TS]

01:22:46   cutting all this but [TS]
