The Joe Rogan Experience XX
[0] Yeha!
[1] Ladies and gentlemen, it's the CES wrap -up with Young Jamie.
[2] Hey!
[3] Hey!
[4] So you decided to go to the Consumer Electronics Show, this big, gigantic expo, that they have in Vegas every year.
[5] It's like the show for new computer gadgetry.
[6] Yeah, everything.
[7] And like anything you'd see at like a fries or Best Buy, from all the way down to anything that would be in a car, anything in a kitchen, anything in a bedroom, anything consumer electronics, basically.
[8] the show is essentially everything that's coming out all the stuff that's on its way out things that have just been announced i think and then i think most of the stuff that's supposed to be coming out for sale this year okay so some of it is we were just about to get into it but we're like god you got to save it for the podcast you were saying that some of it you think they're kind of bullshitting i saw a lot of things that i just like they might not be ready or their prototypes and just like at a car show too there are some things they're just showing you like this is what we can do right now this isn't even what's going to be available this is what we can do maybe if there's a lot of interest, we'll make it.
[9] For instance, there was this a really cool laptop that has three screens on it now.
[10] So it's a gaming laptop that you can get some sort of crazy.
[11] But they were just prototypes, too.
[12] And two of them just got stolen last night or two days ago.
[13] No. So they're trying to get them taken back.
[14] No. They stole prototypes?
[15] Yeah, I don't know how that could have even happened.
[16] Oh, how gross.
[17] How gross to think that some nerds are thieves.
[18] I know.
[19] Wouldn't you like to think that, like, whoever you like whoever you have to be to be an innovator in technology and electronics you would have to be some super fucking smart guy you would think you just leave every room open with people like that wouldn't you like to think that I would like yeah for sure you'd like to yeah but it's a cunning world I'd kind of throw him but I mean that's fucking you know what's dude I'm balls deep into house of cards right now first season apparently I didn't know there's so many seasons it started in 2012 yeah yeah there's three three seasons I think that's it I think so yeah so did they take a long time to make a season yeah for sure I mean I think they completed it and then they shot the whole thing then wrote it again so there's a little...
[20] Fuck It's a good goddamn show dude I don't know spoiler alert you anything Don't you dare you son of them how many episodes are there you think it's probably 11 or 12 in each one so 35ish goddamn it's a good show that Kevin Spacey's a motherfucker who yeah it ups and about Don't you tell me nothing, don't you tell me nothing.
[21] It's the dumbest shit ever is discussing a show.
[22] You know, like today in this day and age, it's not like you could talk about loss because it was just on the air.
[23] You know, when we were watching Lost, that's how recent this DVR thing and this streaming thing has become.
[24] When we were watching Lost, that wasn't that long ago, man. And everybody waited until it came on the next week.
[25] And you could DVR it.
[26] But you didn't bend watch.
[27] Wasn't there even that, they even did things weird where they would show like three episodes and then take a four -week break and then show two more and then take another break.
[28] Do you remember how that would work?
[29] And then I think the riders strike happened in the middle of it too, so there was a longer, there was a little gap too.
[30] I think I came into Lost, I think I got the DVD of like the second, like when the second season was out of the first season.
[31] I think that's how I got into it.
[32] I kind of trying to remember now.
[33] I really enjoyed it up until the end, but I'll never forget this one moment.
[34] There was this one moment where they were all standing around this pond, and it was like some pond that brings you back to life or some shit like that.
[35] And they were like, I don't remember what the scene was, but it was something insane.
[36] And they're sitting there with their arms crossed, like waiting for their turn to talk.
[37] Like the scene was so flat and fake.
[38] I was like, wait a minute, wait a minute.
[39] You guys are in front of a magical lake right now.
[40] You're not freaking out.
[41] Like, this is how you're responding.
[42] You're just standing there with your arms crossed.
[43] Like, yep, just another magic lake.
[44] Whatever the fuck it was.
[45] I was like, I can't do this anymore.
[46] I can't do it anymore.
[47] Plus, they killed Charlie.
[48] Once they killed Charlie, I was super bummed down.
[49] That was such a sad day.
[50] That was such, I was really, that's probably the best episode of the whole show.
[51] God.
[52] They tied everything together.
[53] What a great show that was.
[54] Oven to the end.
[55] Yeah.
[56] In the end, I was like, he's like, okay, we're good.
[57] This just happens with the show, it's right?
[58] It's like relationship sometimes.
[59] Just like, okay, okay, it was great at the beginning.
[60] Enough.
[61] Yeah.
[62] Enough fucking zombies.
[63] Enough this, enough ogres.
[64] Enough that.
[65] That's kind of how I am with Game of Thrones.
[66] No offense to those.
[67] How dare you?
[68] Well, it's enough of the dragons and all that.
[69] Don't shut your mouth.
[70] That's the one I haven't lost any enthusiasm for.
[71] But I got to tell you, Westworld was so good.
[72] I got sucked in so quick.
[73] And the possibilities are so fascinating.
[74] Because they're timeline jumping.
[75] And it's just, it's really interesting to me. It was kind of, they didn't, they weren't up for many golden globes on that.
[76] But HBO didn't win anything.
[77] And I only remember seeing one or two Westworld people even up for anything.
[78] It's kind of shitty.
[79] Maybe they missed the nomination date.
[80] I don't know.
[81] How could you not nominate that show?
[82] That was awesome.
[83] Fuck that show is.
[84] good.
[85] That's crazy.
[86] Well, it just shows you, if that is the case, maybe it's just there's a lot of other shows that are even more awesome that we're just not aware of yet.
[87] This seems like the golden age for TV shows.
[88] It really does.
[89] Yeah, the show that won I hadn't heard is called the Night Manager.
[90] That won, like, Hugh Lorry, who used to be House.
[91] He won an award for that.
[92] And the other guy, Tom Hiddleston, another word.
[93] Somebody was just telling me about that.
[94] It was like a short, six, seven episodes, I think.
[95] It's a Netflix thing, right?
[96] It might be on Netflix, now, but I think it was on something else originally.
[97] See, this is an amazing time for television.
[98] Think about all the great shows.
[99] I haven't seen the O -A yet, but I keep hearing that's amazing.
[100] I heard that's good, too.
[101] It's supposed to be, I don't even want to say what it's supposed to be.
[102] You're not even supposed to know too much about it before you watch it.
[103] That's like the best way to do these.
[104] It's for sure a good way to go.
[105] Like Stranger Things.
[106] I didn't know shit about Stranger Things until I jumped in.
[107] Didn't know a goddamn thing.
[108] I still haven't hit play on it yet.
[109] fuck it's good dude yeah it's good it's good don't let red band steer you're wrong it's like it some things just see you just see a tweet sometimes it just seeps in your head I don't know what it is about the day you see it or the timing just like fuck that show he's like I've never seen it I don't care probably would have been awesome if you hit play but somebody says just it's the first thing you heard about it and now you're fucked yeah and then you're like well sometimes you watch it and you're surprised yeah I don't even often that happens when you're surprised on something you see it's so hard to tell because people's tastes vary so much it's almost like they're watching something different than you and you what who you are like as a person your life experiences and what that show means to you when you're watching it it's so different for all of us like for each one of us is different that's what's weird about television it's what's weird about books and music and comedy and pretty much everything it's we there's not one universal awesome thing there's some shit that like everybody goes god damn it's good no matter what you like like michael jackson in his prime you know i remember there was this radio station in boston uh it was um i think i'm pretty sure it was w bcn it was either w bcn or w c oz those are like the two rock stations coz was a little harder if you're a c oz person you were like a little bit more into like Metallica, a little harder.
[110] COZ.
[111] Yeah, and BCN, I'm pretty sure it's BCN, they played a Michael Jackson song.
[112] And it was back when DJs could just play music, you know?
[113] It was a different world.
[114] They could just play whatever they wanted to.
[115] They could just, like, as if you were a DJ right now and you had a bunch of records and you had an internet radio station, if they let you do it, I don't think you can, but if they did let you do it, you just play those records and play whatever the fuck you want.
[116] That doesn't exist anymore.
[117] It doesn't exist.
[118] So this dude, I wish I could remember who it was.
[119] Just started playing this Michael Jackson song.
[120] He goes, I don't care what you like.
[121] This is great music.
[122] You don't remember the song, though?
[123] Pretty sure it was Billy Jean.
[124] Okay.
[125] I'm pretty sure it was Billy Jean.
[126] Because wasn't that all off a thriller?
[127] Was Billy Jean on Thriller, too?
[128] It's hard, I think, for people today because there's so many superstars.
[129] There's so many different venues.
[130] I mean, there's people that are superstars just from the internet.
[131] Yeah, it was on Thriller.
[132] Yeah.
[133] It's hard for people, I think, today, I think there's a much, much larger number of celebrities and of super celebrities.
[134] You know, of Beyonce's and Jay Z's and Kanye West.
[135] There's so many of those now that it kind of, we don't, I don't think we can appreciate today what it was.
[136] like when Michael Jackson was in his heyday because there was like he there was one it was one guy it was one guy that just boom there was no one like Michael Jackson one guy who had so much impact on the culture people were wearing those stupid jackets everywhere and dancing that way I mean Corey Feldman remember Corey Feldman and Corey Haim the two of them would go out and they were buddies with Michael Jackson so they would dress like him it was a serious trend man people wanted there was that trend and there was the other one with the hat smooth criminal there was a little bit of that did people wear one glove was that oh fuck yeah they did yeah it's hard I think it's hard for us to appreciate how crazy that was with no internet just television stations and radio stations and much less people on the planet that's that's even weirder what do we have like a hundred million more people than when I was a kid like what was the what was the uh find out what the population was in 1980 in the United States because that would have been when I was like 13 because I was in high school in 81 to 226 .5 million dude there's a hundred million more people here now 100 million more people here than when I was a kid that's fucking bananas wow that's an insane number I mean that's really hard to imagine it's really hard to imagine you stop and think about what that means for another 30 or 40 years if it's going to go up another 100 million where are we going to put all these fucking people i mean they say that it peaks off though um when cities and countries start doing better because then they start having less children because they um their economic situation turns up and then a lot of women get careers and they're more reluctant to give up those careers to have children and they have less children when they do have children and so they think that if you looked at like the trends towards urbanization there could potentially be a time in the future where we worried about a decline in population like a natural decline but that sounds like horseshit to me I've heard that too I feel like I feel like I've heard it that it's happening now that it's not that we've almost not peaked but it's it's on a decline in some places for sure I think I've read I think people are just moving out of those spots and coming here I think it's crazy It's obvious there's more people now than ever.
[137] It's a trend.
[138] It's a hundred million trend in, you know, the last, whatever it was, 30 plus years.
[139] I wish I was trying to pull it up right now.
[140] I just saw an article yesterday maybe about how many houses are needed in Los Angeles to keep up with the housing required.
[141] It's like 100 ,000 houses a year.
[142] What?
[143] Yeah.
[144] They have to build 100 ,000 houses a year?
[145] Yeah, and that's like, that's silly.
[146] Oh, my God.
[147] That's insane.
[148] There's no room.
[149] I did this thing before my Showtime special in 2005 where I was comparing like mountains and lakes and rivers to what you see when you see a city, how it looks like a growth.
[150] And then it's like a lot of other growth.
[151] Like even if you burn it, like you got to burn it all off.
[152] Otherwise it just comes back and it gets bigger and stronger.
[153] And if you could look at it as something, if you were outside of our understandings and our, our.
[154] knowledge of what cities are and people and languages and communities and cultures and if you could look past all that you'd look at these things that are growing on this planet you'd look at this concrete weird fucking growth and when you break it out if that's a real number if we need a hundred thousand houses a year i saw this picture uh this was on reddit yesterday or the other day this is a 60 square foot flat it says in hongong i believe oh my god yeah it's basically people look i don't know how many this is two people living in here it looks like at least too this is like a closet and it's a tiny closet everything's in there the tiny little refrigerator tiny little sink this is crazy yeah they're sleeping on bunk beds yeah it's just this is not good for people yeah why why would people choose to do like if you if you weren't a person and you were looking at this you'd be like why don't they spread out why don't they spread out what are they doing in themselves do they like it like this they have to be there family that keeps them there in the city or like from keeping from moving I've never been to Hong Kong so we could only speculate but I think the population in Hong Kong is fucking bananas right there's just too many fucking people I don't know man it's just it weirds me out when you look at people like a mathematical thing don't just look at them like you know hey it's my friend jamie you know hey that's this guy and i know that guy oh that guy's cool instead of that just looking at like math just look at the sheer volume then then watch it as it multiplies and continues to multiply and that one multiplies and it keeps going and going and then the people move here and multiply and it's all multiplication you know like we're not planning this out at all we're just stacking up fucking houses like wait at me it's gonna get to a point point where there's nothing else but houses.
[155] If we keep going, I don't understand why people think that that's totally sustainable.
[156] By the way, it's coming from someone with three kids, so I should probably shut the fuck up.
[157] Did you, have you gotten further into Black Mirror yet?
[158] No, just two episodes.
[159] I just did two.
[160] I will watch more, but I really enjoyed the memory one.
[161] That was the one you kept telling me to see.
[162] Yep, yep.
[163] They're all really good.
[164] Well, they had an awesome take on it, too.
[165] I don't want to spoil or alert anybody, but they were able to record their memories.
[166] And that's what we've been talking about that for years.
[167] And I think, you know, I think a lot of people have been talking about that because it's a pretty obvious transition between being able to record memories with your phone, which is essentially that's what a phone does.
[168] You know, when you're taking photos and videos and stuff from your phone, you're recording memories and how long before it's somewhere where you can play it on your brain you can see it in your head and you know we we think that I would I would love to see if there is a way that they can even take photos that way because I know they can transfer images they can transfer like an image into someone's mind now they can try like very like a triangle and you see a triangle isn't that isn't that the latest sort of I mean it's still I know you're talking about yeah and there was one where they were able to transmit a word through the internet right yeah that's what calls was like more like a one and zero thing it was like an on or off like are you feeling it or are you not kind of thing that's what it was an actual word they might have gotten to what a word was spelled out the word I don't think it was a spelled out thing I wish I could remember the explanation they gave for it but I think it was like what that word represents you know like so the intent of that word and like so the person on the other side like knew the word like no or knew the word not or whatever the word was it says they were able to send the words Ola and Chow from India to France and subjects solve messages of flashes of light and the peripheral vision the results described as a remarkable step in human communication whoo that is fucking crazy they're sending messages through the internet they were able to send the words scroll up a little bit back where they were they were able to send the words olan chow from a location in India to a location in France transmitted signals directly wow this is nuts it's just hard to imagine how far that could go you know if they can do that now what I've been thinking it sounds like total bananas but I've really been thinking a lot about it lately is that you know the internet kind of allows everybody to communicate together you can have your Twitter account and your Facebook and all that jazz I feel like what's going to happen with this kind of technology and this sort of hive mind technology is if they can transmit signals from one person to another person through the brain with this technology this is real similar to like when they first started putting things on message boards in the internet and bulletin boards and like someone would put it up and then you'd have to check it and that was like the only method of communication like my friend andrews talked to me about that a lot he was on in the really early days of the internet and those so these bulletin boards were like really primitive and this is like one of the first things that people had devised to communicate with online but now here we are 20 years later and it's fucking You're streaming live on Instagram and you're doing Facebook live and, you know, people are taking pictures, instantaneously uploading them.
[169] And they're going to, they're going to be able to some way or another allow us to interface with our brains the same way we interfaced using these phones and using computers.
[170] I was just, if that happens, would, I mean, I don't know how this worked.
[171] this obviously was a two -way communication.
[172] They were both wanting it to happen.
[173] In this scenario you're bringing up, like, what if you sent me a message I didn't want, or I didn't want to have right then, I didn't want right now, I'm busy, I'm doing something else.
[174] Yeah.
[175] Or you're just blasting me with this message.
[176] Like, hey, hey, hey, wake up.
[177] I'm like, I'm asleep or who knows what's going on.
[178] Or I'm getting 10 messages from all, or I'm getting spam messages from outside too, because there are going to be a way to turn it off.
[179] Well, I mean, we're probably going to be able to operate.
[180] out of it but how many people are going to opt out of it like even if you do maybe you could turn it off like airplane mode you know just like you do with your phone at night if you're uh watching a tv show or something i think that if you're if you're really gonna keep going with this and it seems like they're gonna i mean if they're doing things like this it's not gonna stop right there it's not going well we did it that's awesome let's just leave it there no they have these new batteries have you seen these new fucking batteries that uh they're powering with nuclear waste no yeah they last for like 5 ,000 years i did see that teslas uh factory got turned on and they started making batteries oh really yeah yeah there was something about batteries being made with nuclear waste um diamond battery made from nuclear waste can last more than 5 ,000 years oh yeah put that in a cell phone and put it right next to your dick that shouldn't hurt it at all because radioactive source is in case safely within the diamond the hardest known substance it would be safe to use say the researchers fuck those guys they're gonna open up a port of the hell those are those guys from half life fuck you man fuck you're gonna put what and you know the chicks are gonna want a goddamn nuclear diamond you know those really super fucking high maintenance chicks they're all going to want nuclear diamonds like a regular diamond is not going to be good enough that's going to be the next top level shit is a diamond with nuclear waste inside of it cremation diamonds people are being cremated and turned into diamonds yeah wonderful so wouldn't that what are those two things possibly related it's cremation's weird we're probably we're probably fucking over nature by being cremated we really are we're probably fucking over nature also with formaldehyde you know i mean there's like that's probably one of the disconnects that we have with nature like we don't absorb into it anymore we don't we don't we don't just bury our dead and then let the body do its natural decomposing process and then become a part of the the natural ecosystem no we've completely removed ourselves from it we take the body we drain all the shit out of it we fill it up with chemicals we spray paint it is weird man have you seen a body like that's about to be buried uh not for a while but yeah my grandpa freaked me out because i was like wow he's not there like this is weird it didn't it wasn't there was nothing good about it there was nothing good about being there like that it was i don't want to use the words grotesque but there's something severely damaged about the idea behind it.
[181] It was like, oh, I felt like I was watching some crazy ritualistic shit, you know, that was like reenacted from the primitive days of early man. I mean, looking down at this spray -painted shell of a human, it's just, it's bizarre, man. You could tell that's not, he's not really there.
[182] What is this?
[183] These are different funerals.
[184] What does it say Puerto Rican gangster?
[185] Puerto Rico gangster propped up playing dominoes at his funeral.
[186] Oh, God.
[187] This guy's dressed up as a superhero.
[188] Oh, my God.
[189] This guy's in a car.
[190] Jesus Christ.
[191] This is crazy.
[192] I've seen that I've had like different.
[193] This guy's here's a boxer.
[194] Oh my God.
[195] He's a boxer.
[196] So they put him in his warm -up suit and they put him in the corner of a ring.
[197] Jesus Christ.
[198] This is crazy.
[199] He's got sunglasses on.
[200] Why would you have sunglasses when you're right about to fight?
[201] Want to see a crazy fucking picture?
[202] That guy, Joseph Smith Jr., who just knocked out Bernard Hopkins.
[203] First day on the job since he won the world title.
[204] And he's got a photo of himself.
[205] Was it on his, right?
[206] Joe Smith, Jr. Hmm.
[207] He's got two.
[208] He's got two Instagrams.
[209] Maybe Shob had it up?
[210] Yeah, there it is.
[211] look at that Joe Smith's first day in the job since he won I mean this guy just knocked out Bernard Hopkins and he has a construction worker job That's crazy It's insane That's insane Hey dude quit that job As I say Do you think at this point He needs to do that?
[212] I don't know how much you got paid You know he might just be a Maybe doesn't have another fight lined up Yeah I mean I think everyone to just assumes that if someone's a world champion that they're rich but it's not really the case you have to be a famous world champion the real the money i mean the money's in promotion the money is in you know a guy like oscar de la hoya in his prime he was a like a teen idol and also an amazing boxer or an olympic gold medalist like that kind of guy sold tickets Floyd mayweather sells tickets manny packie out sells tickets now joe smith jr his next fight will probably make a lot of money you know this was an opportunity for him and he capitalized on it and he knocked out one of the greatest of all time but it was it's just weird to see him working yeah you know um that fight was fucked though i know what round did that happen in like the fourth fourth or the fifth i don't remember but uh he had he had been getting to bernard hopkins and it looked like one of those classic fights where uh the old veteran just has lost his step You know, he was getting to Bernard Hopkins.
[213] He tagged him with some big shots.
[214] And then when he got him in the corner and just unloaded those shots on him, and then Bernard fell back on his head.
[215] I was like, God, this is just so fucked up.
[216] It's such a fucked up way to end an amazing career.
[217] That is just what that sport does.
[218] That is what that sport does.
[219] There's no getting around that.
[220] If you're a 51 -year -old man and you're trying to fight one of the best young lions in the game, especially he's not on PDs or anything he's not on any i mean i don't think he is he might be i doubt it he seems like just a super disciplined guy and his body sort of reflects that he doesn't quite have the same body that he had when he was younger but he still looks very fit like when he was younger he was a savage i mean when he beat like felix trinidad nobody gave him a chance everybody thought he was done they thought he was old felix trinidad was gonna fuck him up and he went on to fight for like 13 more years.
[221] Yeah, man. He fucked up Kelly Pavlik.
[222] They thought he was old then.
[223] He went to fight Kelly Pavlik and everybody's like, oh, there's going to be a bad fight for Bernard Hopkins.
[224] You know, he's, you know, I think he was like 39 or something like that.
[225] I forget how old he was.
[226] I might have been a little younger than that.
[227] Anyway, he fucked up Kelly Pavlik.
[228] No, he was in his 40s.
[229] Find out how old Bernard Hopkins was when he fought Kelly Pavlik.
[230] I was after Pavlik had already become the champ, right?
[231] Yeah.
[232] I want to say he, Pavlik had beaten Jermaine Taylor, right?
[233] And I think, man, Hopkins might have been 40 years old at the time.
[234] Because it's just, you stop and think about boxers in the past.
[235] There was a few guys like Archie Moore, George Foreman.
[236] He was 43 and Pavlik was 26.
[237] Crazy.
[238] And almost 10 years later, he's trying to still do that.
[239] with these murderous white men.
[240] It's like, because Kelly Pavlik was a murderous white dude too.
[241] Murderous puncher.
[242] And then this Joe Smith Jr. is a ferocious puncher.
[243] Oh, he's just a killer.
[244] Bernard Hopkins, like, you got to, one thing you got to give the guy, as amazing as his career has been, even at the very last fight, he takes the toughest fight he can find, or one of the toughest ones.
[245] Just a real young, dangerous kid but it's just even though like we've seen it happen with Sugar E Leonard we saw it I mean remember Sugar Ray Leonard got beat up by Hector Camacho he just stayed in too long and Hector Camacho just beat the shit out of him and it's like wow this is weird to watch and he had Billy Blanks in his corner Billy Blanks was teaching him Tybo he did he had Billy Blanks Billy Blanks was a karate champion too he was a yoke dude and you know knows a lot about fitness but Apparently, Sugaray had something fucked up with his calf.
[246] Like, he pulled a muscle in his calf.
[247] Then he had to get a cortisone shot before the fight.
[248] He had, like, a little bit of a limp, I remember.
[249] But Hector Camacho fucked him up.
[250] But the really scary one was Terry Norris.
[251] When Terry Norris beat up Sugar Ray Leonard.
[252] Do you remember that?
[253] No. Terry Norris, he put a beating on a lot of dudes.
[254] He was a scary kid.
[255] when he was at his best Terry Norris was like lightning yeah this is when Terry Norris was you know world class and he was just a step faster than Sugar Ray and you could see he's getting to him Terry Norris he had been knocked out a few times himself too man he he got in wars one of the exciting things about Norris was that he would he would get hit he would get in front of guys and he would, you know, really take some risks.
[256] It's one of the reasons why he was so fun to watch.
[257] But, yeah, this is just...
[258] I don't even remember exactly how this fight ends, but I'm pretty sure Terry stopped him.
[259] Oh, this is just round seven.
[260] Yeah, I thought it was a highlighter.
[261] Oh, no, no. Oh, yeah, there's sugar right.
[262] Got knocked down.
[263] Yeah, see, when you see shit like that, like, whoa.
[264] See him get up, staggered.
[265] We've seen this so many times.
[266] It shouldn't be weird at all.
[267] Oh, what a good time for the Internet to freeze.
[268] It shouldn't be confusing to us.
[269] But it's this story that repeats itself over and over and over again.
[270] It doesn't seem like anybody ever learns their lesson.
[271] There's a few guys that get out on top.
[272] I really do hope Floyd Mayweather says, fuck you to everybody.
[273] It just takes all that money.
[274] I really do hope he does that.
[275] I would love to see a guy get through the whole thing.
[276] without ever getting fucked up once.
[277] Like, I mean, if you think about what he's done, made stupid amounts of money, and got through the whole thing, might have gotten hurt three or four times in his whole career, might have gotten tagged, never got beat up, never got knocked out.
[278] Just got tagged a few times over the course of how many fights?
[279] I mean, that's beautiful.
[280] Someone can do that.
[281] That's like retiring as a BMX rider with, no broken bones is that possible to do I don't think that no yeah see what he's done if Floyd Mayweather retires he's done the thing that nobody ever does he went out on top undefeated with all the money after having fought all challengers I mean he might have fought Pachial late but you can't deny that he fought all challengers who gives the fuck I mean the 50 thing seems to to be an issue, or not an issue, but like, I don't know, yeah, to 50, you know, whether or not he wants to break the record.
[282] I mean, how much of that is his ego that's going to last for, I mean, he's still pretty young, right?
[283] Yeah.
[284] I mean, he's, I think he's 36, if I had a guess, but he's in really good shape.
[285] I mean, he does care of himself really well.
[286] He's, like, notoriously disciplined about workouts, and he'll even go out at night, go to a night club, drink water, and then work out at 2 o 'clock in the morning.
[287] Because he has his own gym and his own thing, and, you know, and he works hard.
[288] You don't get that good on just talent.
[289] You know, you get that good on talent and discipline and hard fucking work.
[290] There's just no way around it.
[291] And smart.
[292] You've got to be smart, too.
[293] You've got to be sneaky.
[294] Got to be clever.
[295] Do you see who he's training right now for a fight?
[296] Yeah, he's trained Soldier Boy.
[297] Soldier Boy is really going to fight Chris Brown.
[298] Is that real?
[299] I don't, I mean, it doesn't.
[300] seem like it but it's been talked about for a few days now apparently it's going to be on pay -per -view um fighting over a girl i don't i'm gonna tell you right now chris brown's gonna fuck him up probably yeah there's that's an angry dude but see that dude on the left with the red that's a real angry dude that the other dude i just do not think he is as angry but who knows man i've never seen either of them in person maybe one of them maybe soldier boy's been hiding some sick boxing skills and just pretending this whole time.
[301] I doubt it.
[302] See, I feel like Chris Brown has probably punched a lot more people, you know?
[303] Don't you think?
[304] I don't know.
[305] All, you know, wife beating girl beating jokes aside.
[306] He's definitely seems like a dude who is much more likely to punch people.
[307] Maybe more likely to, but I couldn't really see neither of them getting in like a street fight or anything.
[308] They've been pretty famous for most of their life and protected too.
[309] Hmm, interesting Since they're in their teens Um Two guys Shit happens So I mean they might have thrown down Once or twice Oh well here's another thing Here's another reason why I say Chris Brown Chris Brown's a real fucking dancer You ever see that guy move?
[310] Oh yeah Yeah he could do some crazy shit He's really good in basketball Yeah Yeah Really good in basketball Listen this is gonna be a blood bath I might be wrong Would you buy it?
[311] Yes.
[312] Yeah, I'll fucking buy it.
[313] You know?
[314] And if Soldier Boy fucks him up, I'll apologize.
[315] I was trying to think about this.
[316] Hasn't there been other things?
[317] I mean, I know you were supposedly supposed to fight Wesley Snipes, but wasn't there supposed to other things like this ever happened before?
[318] You used to have a whole celebrity boxing show.
[319] I remember that happened a couple times.
[320] Yeah, yeah.
[321] Danny Bonaducci fought Screech.
[322] He fucked up a couple of people.
[323] I remember when I was younger, there was supposed to be a big event where Shaquille O 'Neal was supposed to go one -on -one on page.
[324] pay -per -view with this other big player named Hakeem Olajuwon.
[325] They're going to box.
[326] Not box.
[327] They were just going to play basketball one -on -one for a million dollars, but it never ended up happening.
[328] I don't know why it went away.
[329] But I was just kind of wondering in my head, like, I feel like this is, I've heard things like this coming up and happen, or at least been announced, but they just kind of fizzle out.
[330] Who knows, man?
[331] I mean, people have done crazy shit.
[332] This just seems like a really, really nutty one.
[333] And they're fighting over a girl.
[334] Mm -hmm.
[335] I just, I haven't seen any evidence of Soldier Boys athleticism.
[336] Somebody put up a video of him working out.
[337] There's a compilation of him working out.
[338] But it's hard to tell if he's just being silly.
[339] You know?
[340] It's like he's like shadowboxing and he's riding an elliptical machine.
[341] He seems like a really young guy.
[342] How old is he?
[343] He's in his 20s?
[344] Yeah.
[345] Well, there's a bunch of, there's like a compilation.
[346] Yeah.
[347] So the dude, whoever they do that was narrating, it was like, oh man, he goes, you're working out with your socks on.
[348] This is not the same compilation, but it was pretty funny.
[349] He's like, only real savages work out with their socks on.
[350] It's just, you know, why do they want to do this?
[351] I don't know.
[352] They need to hug it out.
[353] Anyway, when you were talking about that Black Mirror episode, I first.
[354] forgot that's the one that you saw.
[355] One of the things I actually got and was seeing shown at this CES event was that I showed it to the other night that GoPro gimbal I got.
[356] It's called the karma grip.
[357] Let's you hold onto it.
[358] Let's see it if you want.
[359] But this is some of the video I shot with it.
[360] And so the idea is that it balances itself out.
[361] Yeah, the camera's on you.
[362] So you just kind of hold it and it keeps itself stable.
[363] So like you can jig a little around a little bit and it stays pretty simple and this was me walking around i have it at two to a double speed here but this was connected to my shoulder basically and i was walking around so you uh taped it to shoulder uh i had a velcro strap okay and so it just sits like this i had it around my backpack wow and so i was just kind of like walking around the event and here's one of the here's one of the cool things i did see at the event too is a projector that's projecting on um it's oh it made it roll like that?
[364] Yeah, it wants to still stay up.
[365] But this projector right here is projecting onto a curtain, which I kind of ran past it pretty fast.
[366] I wasn't really shooting my video for that purpose, but...
[367] It's like a shower curtain with like a pattern on it.
[368] Yeah, but it's showing a solid image on that.
[369] Exactly.
[370] It's showing a hockey game, and you're not seeing the ripples.
[371] So you don't need a flat screen for this projector.
[372] You can project it on anything.
[373] Like a tree.
[374] Exactly.
[375] Ideally, you would want something.
[376] I'm a little smoother than that, but yeah, you could still have a flat image on that.
[377] Whoa.
[378] So that was pretty neat, but some of this video is pretty cool on the stabilization.
[379] And then I went over to the Samsung booth.
[380] And they have what they're kind of showing here is this flat hanging TV, which the only way it's different from the things now, like when you hang a TV up on a wall, it's kind of hanging off about four to six inches.
[381] This is literally flat.
[382] I don't know if you can see right there.
[383] Yeah, it looks like a piece of paper.
[384] Yeah, but you can't really, I don't know if you could slide anything in me there.
[385] It says it's a no -gap wall mount, and then there's really no cords hanging off of there either.
[386] It's just one cord.
[387] No HDMI.
[388] I don't even know if power was coming off of it either.
[389] Well, how does it work then?
[390] There's one optical cord, so it's like using light.
[391] Optical cables use light waves.
[392] So the one cord is powering it and providing the data?
[393] I'm not, I'm pretty, see, it says invisible connection right there on top.
[394] It's showing some of the data.
[395] Well, it kind of makes sense what they can do now with these iPhones.
[396] I shouldn't say it powered it but it does do all the 4K data.
[397] It does the HDMI and it replaces all of that.
[398] But these new iPhones with that what is that connection called?
[399] Lightning connector.
[400] That connector you use it for sound like with your ear plugs your earbuds.
[401] You use it for an external microphone you can use it for it charges it you can split it off so it charges And at the same time, you're also listening to music, so both things can go through at the same time.
[402] Another interesting thing that was being shown is some transparent LCD screens.
[403] So I'm trying to show you this one a little bit.
[404] This one right here in the middle, this guy's trying to show you.
[405] This screen right here is actually a full LCD screen.
[406] What I'm pointing at in the corner.
[407] But there's an art display shown over top of it, like an ink art display.
[408] So when you're not using it, when you're not using the TV, it looks like a piece of art hanging on your wall with the rest of the art. Wow.
[409] So it's a screensaver.
[410] Basically a screen saver.
[411] That's insane.
[412] And there were a couple other companies showing some see -through LCD screens that...
[413] What a great idea.
[414] These aren't also, I haven't come to market yet, but this is some of the stuff that they're showing.
[415] It's so beautiful, too.
[416] That's beautiful artwork.
[417] And if you can do it with that kind of resolution.
[418] Um, here I was just, I looked at some three, is the curved, curved, uh, monitors.
[419] This is like the most curved monitor ever.
[420] I'm still not super sold on these.
[421] I don't really understand why everyone, or why they're selling them so hard.
[422] I don't really have an interest in buying when I've tried a few times to look at it.
[423] It's very gimmicky.
[424] It seems to me like, remember when those 3D TVs were coming out and everyone was trying to convince everybody you need to get it?
[425] Yeah.
[426] Oh, 3D TV's coming.
[427] And I watched it for like a couple of minutes.
[428] with the glasses on.
[429] I was like, this is not going to work.
[430] This is not here yet.
[431] You know, it's just too goofy.
[432] That's gone pretty much.
[433] Yeah, it's gone.
[434] I think that's the same with these things.
[435] I think people are, you're going to use them for a while, then you're going to go, wait, but this is, why is it, why am I doing this?
[436] Why am I curving the fucking screen?
[437] It seems like it's only for one of you or two, because if you're curving it's for the other people, then they can't.
[438] It's fucks it up for everybody else.
[439] It makes it for one person, but I would say the majority of people's use of computers is probably one person, right?
[440] Right.
[441] Yeah, for sure.
[442] At least one person at a time.
[443] So on this video, you can also see kind of how crowded this whole event was.
[444] Jesus.
[445] This was a, I walked 25 miles, I think.
[446] My Fitbit tracked, 25 miles in two days.
[447] Wow.
[448] And that was only six to seven hours per time because I was dead tired after that.
[449] Yeah, dude, you had a workout.
[450] For sure.
[451] And I was canning around a backpack.
[452] Oh, yeah.
[453] For 20 pounds of gear in it.
[454] But here's an interesting new laptop coming out.
[455] You can't really get a good view on it.
[456] I kind of picked it up.
[457] It literally, I think it weighs less than a pound or right around a pound.
[458] Whoa.
[459] And it felt like a kid's toy.
[460] That's how like the plastic -y.
[461] I don't want to say it felt cheap, but it felt like a toy.
[462] It felt like you could just throw it like a frisbee.
[463] But it was a full laptop made by Samsung.
[464] It had a LCD screen.
[465] It had a full keyboard.
[466] It had a mouse pad.
[467] And they had a little, I think it was a scale next to each thing that just proved to you how much it weighs.
[468] But are you that much of a pussy that you can't carry around a one -pound laptop?
[469] I don't get it.
[470] Yes and no, but I mean, say if you want to take one hunting and you need to, you need all your ounces, like, you're the perfect one to take hunting.
[471] You definitely shouldn't take a laptop all hunting.
[472] But if you did, yeah, you would definitely want to do that.
[473] Yeah, guys cut their toothbrushes in half.
[474] There's a lot of, like, drastic weight reduction when it comes to those things.
[475] But I just feel like for laptops, it's not that hard to carry one around.
[476] And, you know, you put it on your back.
[477] And to me, like, features and hard drive space and speed, and that's the most important shit.
[478] Like, it's not that hard to carry a pound or two pounds or whatever the fuck it is, three pounds.
[479] Yeah.
[480] It's not that hard.
[481] They haven't gotten that crazy, I guess.
[482] They are getting all lighter.
[483] Yeah.
[484] The laptop doesn't weigh that much.
[485] Those retina displays are very light and it's beautiful.
[486] You know, and then they have the airs, and those are feather light.
[487] You don't need anything lighter than a goddamn MacBook Air.
[488] Yeah, true that.
[489] It's nothing.
[490] It weighs nothing.
[491] There's got to be a reason.
[492] There's got to be a small market.
[493] It also probably is way cheaper than a MacBook Air, I would have to say.
[494] Well, you remember when people wanted smaller and smaller phones?
[495] You buy a phone that's that big.
[496] I saw a phone once that, like, it was so small that, like, there was a dial for...
[497] I'm trying to remember how the fucking numbers were pressed.
[498] There was some novel way of, like, they barely could fit a number pad, like, to dial phone numbers.
[499] so they had some weird dial thing to it.
[500] I'm trying to remember.
[501] I might be making this up.
[502] iPhone prototype.
[503] They showed an iPhone prototype.
[504] I don't know how it came out today, or not today, but this week someone made a or showed video of how one of the ways an iPhone was supposed to originally work and it was using that scroll wheel that used to be on the old iPods.
[505] Do you remember that?
[506] Yeah.
[507] So someone kind of hacked it together, I think, on a current, iPhone to show you how this worked this operating system worked but it seemed like the obviously worst way ever to be controlling a phone because even I think you had to input numbers that way by scrolling to them two three four seems so bad it was that really considered I mean it's work it's a working prototype so I'd have to say someone at least thought it might have been a good idea well it has to be I mean that they went through a bunch of different ideas before they came up with the...
[508] Yeah, I mean, I heard they're going through 10 different phones right now just to try to figure out what the next iPhone they're going to go with is.
[509] They're 10 different testing models.
[510] Do you think that they've hit that point of critical mass where it's like unless something really huge comes along, like hologram projectors or something really bananas, you've got everything now.
[511] You've got amazing cameras.
[512] You've got massive hard drive space.
[513] You've got so much.
[514] you've got you have all these apps that you can use you got all this usability like what are you going to do that's going to make people want like a next generation and a next generation and a next generation like there has to be some sort of a leap because it seems like for all the technology we have today people are almost like overcomputered and and over phoned right definitely for sure I mean I was trying to walk when I was walking around that event I was looking for like either the big crowds to see what everyone was like stuck around looking at because this event was so huge, to stop and spend five minutes at a particular, I don't know, a pod or product or even just let someone talk to you to take your time for that five minutes is insane because there's just so much to look at.
[515] But at the same time, there's, well, I kind of lost what I was doing there, but I just kind of looked over at this thing I wanted to show you, which was this thing called Vertify, which is this 3D virtual reality, program.
[516] They showed this guy over here doing a demo for it.
[517] I didn't want to wait in line.
[518] I really didn't want to wait in any lines there because there were so many people and I didn't feel very good to stand somewhere for 30 minutes and sweat.
[519] Young Jamie got the same stomach flu that I had.
[520] But what this shows right here is I'm pretty sure that this thing on top here is the camera that records the event.
[521] And then what they were showing, this guy was getting a demo of it, which I wasn't seeing on this screen.
[522] But they did show, and you can kind of see pinching his hand up there on top on this video they show you watching uh with a VR headset let's say a concert and then you can decide to grab the lead singer and move him into your living room so the performance is now he's like not i don't know it was real weird how it showed it and i don't have it on this actual video i went back and watched another and so he's wearing some fairly small goggles it's not not a lot to what he's wearing yeah that's one of the uh one there's about four or five big things going on there.
[523] There's VR headsets, different, new, multiple companies sharing VR headsets.
[524] Was this augmented or was it virtual reality?
[525] That, I believe, was virtual reality.
[526] But he reached up and grabbed someone and pinched it and brought it in.
[527] But it would have to be a little augmented because if you were seeing it in your living room, you'd have to also see the living room.
[528] Yeah, if you go back to the video of you being there, like when you see his actual goggles itself, like watch as you pass by.
[529] I can actually see a little bit on the video there.
[530] See that's the lead singer moved on to the couch.
[531] Oh, bringing the artist into our home.
[532] How bizarre.
[533] Which would, I kind of like pulled into the comedy world.
[534] You could bring the comedian into your living room and just have them perform in your front in your living room instead of at the comedy venue that they were at, which would be interesting.
[535] Yeah.
[536] How odd.
[537] Drones was a big thing there.
[538] Lots of drones.
[539] Tons of drones.
[540] Tiny ones too now, right?
[541] Very tiny ones.
[542] There's a selfie drone, which didn't seem like it worked very well.
[543] It kept flying up and flying down different sides.
[544] I'm not quite sure how you're supposed to control it.
[545] Go through this for a couple more seconds to see that guy's goggles.
[546] Because I think he could see through them.
[547] See, look how he's looking?
[548] Yeah, okay.
[549] See how he, like, you see his eyes.
[550] I mean, that's what it seems like to me, right?
[551] He might have that Microsoft Surface headset on.
[552] I'm not sure.
[553] And there's a behind it, too, is a wireless VR headset.
[554] So there were, like I said, too, there were a lot of headsets, and there were lots of things.
[555] And let me just throw out a number and say I did five tech demos.
[556] Out of those five, two or three didn't work, or they didn't go well, or they didn't work perfectly at all.
[557] So that's where I'm kind of like, I don't know that a lot of this stuff wasn't maybe not ready.
[558] Or maybe it was supposed to be shown that way, and this is like, this is our only demo product we have for you guys to see.
[559] It's supposed to work all the time.
[560] It usually does.
[561] but we've done so many demos today.
[562] It kind of fucks up a little bit.
[563] That could have been happening, too, a little bit.
[564] But there is a lot of things going on here where they're just trying to show you an idea and hope someone with a lot of money walks by and I was like, ah, that looks like a good idea.
[565] Here's some money, kid.
[566] Go make it, that kind of thing.
[567] Some 1930s carnival barker.
[568] And it works out for that company.
[569] Does that happen?
[570] Are there, like, guys who troll around this place and look for good products?
[571] I just walked by the Intel booth and randomly saw a guy walk up to one of their workers and say, like, I have some patents on baseball, Wi -Fi technology.
[572] Who do I talk to?
[573] That kind of thing.
[574] So that's all.
[575] There's tons of different meetings, things sort of happening.
[576] By the way, in case anybody misinterprets, when I'm saying troll around, I don't mean, like, fuck with people on the internet, troll.
[577] I mean, like, fishing troll.
[578] Yeah.
[579] You drag a line behind, you go look for things to catch.
[580] Do you think that this was, like, the big thing in this CES, though, as far as like emerging technologies with all this virtual reality stuff?
[581] Every year it is apparently it's focused on something different.
[582] Like this year there wasn't very much cell phone anything really.
[583] And in the past years, like there's been just big announcements of cell phones from different companies.
[584] I think I only even saw maybe one.
[585] And it was this company called Highway, I believe it's how you say it.
[586] Because they had a, they paired with this really well -known camera company called Lyca and have a 20 megapixel camera.
[587] Yeah, Lyca makes They make binoculars and stuff too But I tested that out to see how good it was And I wasn't sure if I was holding the actual correct model Which was the one that had all the best features in it Because I had a couple different models out there Yeah, man There's just so much going on there It was really hard to get a grasp of what you were doing That's really interesting you're bringing this up It's making me think Like when you get to a certain level Of this virtual reality stuff if you're going to want to look through, like, the best lens available.
[588] You know, you're going to want, like, one of those high -end binocular companies to come along and craft something.
[589] Yeah.
[590] I'm trying to remember right now, I want to say it's GoPro.
[591] I have to Google it before I kind of say something off.
[592] But do you know, have you heard the company called Hasselblad?
[593] Yes.
[594] I believe GoFer just bought them.
[595] They were the people that had the cameras that they put on the moon.
[596] I think it's DJI.
[597] DJI Hasselblad.
[598] Allegedly.
[599] Allegedly they were on the moon.
[600] Yeah, so DJI is arguably the best drone maker right now.
[601] They're the biggest company.
[602] It's a company out of China.
[603] They make the Phantom, which was the biggest consumer drone.
[604] And right now they just put out the thing called the Mavik, which is...
[605] So they acquired Hasselbad?
[606] Apparently they had a minor stake in the company, and they just took a major stake.
[607] So they just took over the stockholdings.
[608] What's the correct pronunciation?
[609] It's Hasselblad?
[610] I believe so, yeah.
[611] So DJI is this, they made this thing called the MAVIC, which I got to hold at the event.
[612] I didn't get to buy one.
[613] They're on back order still right now.
[614] How big is it?
[615] For a little while.
[616] Fold it up because each of these legs folds together.
[617] It's a little bit smaller, or a little bit bigger than this than my iPhone 7S.
[618] It's obviously a little bit thicker.
[619] You can see that it's thicker, but the actual size, you can hold it and it's about the same size as the palm of your hand.
[620] Holy shit.
[621] And it shoots 4K video.
[622] It goes up to, I want to say, about four miles away from you.
[623] What?
[624] Yeah.
[625] So obviously you're going to lose side of it.
[626] It goes, I think, 20, 30, 40 miles an hour or something like that.
[627] Something crazy.
[628] This is a bite -sized little tiny time.
[629] Oh, my God.
[630] And does it avoid things or evade things?
[631] Yeah, this one has obstacle avoid and sets up these cameras on the front four.
[632] There's some on the back door of the bottom, too.
[633] So they have another version, which is the Phantom 4, pro i believe which is a bigger version than this they have an inspire which is the way bigger version and then they have like the full film like that a film company would use which has got like eight big crazy props on it whatnot do you remember uh when they filmed that movie the twilight zone and they they didn't have drones back then and they had a helicopter an actual real helicopter behind him doing a stunt do you remember that there was a horrible accident oh man it was a horrible accident where this actor and this little girl were killed oh wait the helicopter came crashing down on them you said that there was two people i think i did hear about that don't even show me this dude i don't even want to watch that shit something something about seeing people die for a movie too it's like particularly gruesome it's like what how did you think that you could just fly that helicopter right next to people well with all this drone stuff i'm maybe kind of ask you this question because I don't know if it's an actual trend I see happening or if it's just something they're forcing or what, but there just seems to be a lot of camera equipment being made available for the individual to use to make really high -end stuff.
[634] Yeah.
[635] And I don't know if it's the trend that people are just going to start making all this content.
[636] Are they going to just start shooting everything they're doing?
[637] Are they just making it as technology allowing that to happen for us?
[638] like well it seems like there's only so much you could do with it I feel like what they what they have to do though is have the best shit so if someone has 4k you have to have 4k you know someone has um you know virtual capability you could upload it digitally like fitness trackers were really big there I still I I don't remember who it was that came in here I think it was the first time Burke came in with one.
[639] I sort of tried to ask them.
[640] I was like, because I had one too for a couple weeks, but I took it back because it got recalled.
[641] But I was like, what are you doing with that?
[642] The one I had at the time got recalled.
[643] It was for what?
[644] It was causing a rash on people because the battery connector wasn't, right?
[645] I don't know.
[646] They fixed it apparently now.
[647] But I haven't bought another one since then because I found out that the Fitbit app of my iPhone works just about the same.
[648] And there's also the built -in Apple iPhone apps now, too, that do the health stuff.
[649] But What is everyone doing with all that data or are they doing anything with it mostly at all besides really, really, really into fitness people, like personal trainers?
[650] Well, I think there's some technologies that even though they keep getting better and better, they're kind of ignored after a while.
[651] Like, here's one of the most bizarre ones is voice sound quality.
[652] Nobody gives a fuck about when anybody's voice sounds like on a phone.
[653] It's like it almost never gets discussed.
[654] Like, isn't that one of the most important things about a phone?
[655] You should be able to listen to someone on a phone.
[656] and it should sound like they're talking to you.
[657] It should be like right here.
[658] Like, what's up, Jamie?
[659] Oh, hey, what's up, dude?
[660] It never sounds that good, ever.
[661] But they have the ability to make it sound that good.
[662] Well, why haven't they made it sound that good?
[663] People barely fucking use their phone as a phone anymore.
[664] The phone part is totally stagnant.
[665] Like, the signal gets a little bit better.
[666] You can catch a signal somewhere else, but it still sounds just as shitty as it ever did.
[667] It doesn't sound perfect clarity.
[668] It doesn't sound like you talking to me in the same room.
[669] room.
[670] You telling me they can't do that?
[671] Of course they can do that.
[672] If they could get you to listen better now with a better sound now than the rotary phones, the 1960s, they could improve on the sound quality, but there's no demand for it because people hardly talk on the phone anymore.
[673] So it becomes one of those things where it just hits a certain point.
[674] Nobody gives a fuck about it.
[675] And then the market goes where people give a fuck.
[676] People give a fuck about cameras.
[677] You've got to get a juicy camera.
[678] I want a 15, 18, whatever a megapixel is.
[679] It sounds awesome.
[680] Get me one of those.
[681] Oh, it's gigapixel?
[682] They have gigapixels.
[683] I need a gigapixel.
[684] You know, like how many people are just buying the latest shit, me included, because it's the latest shit, because it sounds awesome.
[685] You know, because you want that one.
[686] Oh, the S has the image stabilization that I'll never use.
[687] Yeah.
[688] There's so much of that shit out there.
[689] But it seems so compelling, you know?
[690] Like if Apple had an iPhone 8, you and me would be in line, like a couple of fucking dork.
[691] still keep talking to myself sometimes i think about this for the seven s i have it's like i it's i have it i like it the cameras on it is really good but it's so big i kind of dislike it how dare you i like the i like the smaller phone i like the six s well the six or the seven you know you can get a regular size one too but the the stats on the phone are are down it's not as good it's not as good as if a phone has the 7S is.
[692] Really?
[693] The 7S plus, I'm sorry, we're a 7 plus.
[694] As far as the hard drive and as far as the battery life, right?
[695] It's got dual cameras, which the other ones don't have.
[696] The battery on this is actually really good.
[697] It's very good.
[698] I'm super surprised at how good the battery is on this phone.
[699] Yeah.
[700] Especially if you don't keep Wi -Fi and Bluetooth on all the time.
[701] You can last two days almost.
[702] Which is way surprising because the screen's way bigger.
[703] But I don't, I could say, when the next.
[704] next one comes out in a couple of months they're going to announce it probably by March or May and it'll be out by the fall like do we need it again and then the answer is like why because we're shooting it has 4k video on it's like yeah I know it has 4k video but I've barely done anything with the 4k video and the 4k video I do have like with this GoPro I just got the new gopro 5 you have to convert all the footage so that you can actually edit it which is like a big gigantic step that You have to convert it before you edit it?
[705] Yeah.
[706] You can do a little bit of editing in their program, but to take it in a final cut or to do what I did just to show you more than 30 seconds at a time.
[707] I had to spend whatever 12 minutes per 8 minute video converting all of it.
[708] That's only because that's the capabilities of my computer.
[709] If I had a faster one, maybe it would have been faster, but there's slower computers too.
[710] And it's just like what's the need of the 4K video then?
[711] I couldn't even show the 4K video out because I can't broadcast to YouTube.
[712] How big of these files we're talking about?
[713] Huge.
[714] For a nine -minute video, it was like 40 gigs.
[715] Oh, my God.
[716] That's a fucking giant hard drive back in the day.
[717] I think my first hard drive was four gigs.
[718] 40 gig for one file.
[719] That's crazy.
[720] That's just so I could have two hours of GoPro footage of me walking around CES to whittle that down.
[721] And it's like, what is the normal person going to do with all that?
[722] If they went to shoot their kids, it's like they're going to have.
[723] to have so many hard drives, we're going to become digital orders, for sure.
[724] Yeah.
[725] Yeah, you're talking about actual physical space now.
[726] Mm -hmm.
[727] Now, what is the benefit of that over, like, a more standard HD format, other than the fact that it just looks a little bit better?
[728] I mean, and really it is just a little bit.
[729] Like, you're really struggling between HD and this 4K.
[730] It's like, yeah, it's better.
[731] It's a smidge.
[732] It's a smidge better.
[733] There were some 8K TVs at CES.
[734] 8K.
[735] Yeah.
[736] Those motherfuckers.
[737] There's a couple cameras that's shooting 8K now.
[738] Right when you thought you were safe with 4K.
[739] Now, what's going to be 80 gigs for the same video?
[740] At least.
[741] Fuck that.
[742] That's crazy.
[743] Well, and that's kind of where we're getting.
[744] It's like there's no, the distribution of this content now becomes the next step and the next hurdle you have to get past.
[745] I was looking around a lot of 360 cameras because I just got that 360 camera and did the test footage with the way, that we did last week.
[746] And I didn't personally just like how the footage looked.
[747] I got a, there was a smudge on the screen, which transferred over, and it doesn't look very good.
[748] And it wasn't at eye level.
[749] And I was shoot, I believe I was shooting that in 4K, and it just looks a little grainy and messy.
[750] And so I was looking around that whole event to just try to find, because there were multiple 360 cameras and multiple, there was 4K streaming 360 cameras.
[751] And you need to, they all have their own proprietary software to run.
[752] it off of but I did find one really good one which does 3d 360 video which was really really cool but I'm also wondering too if I saw something one really good edited video they made to show it off or if I was actually seeing this is basically exactly what the camera does straight like pretty much straight off of it because it was really cool it's called the views camera and I contacted you're getting that's when you're getting that's when you get into really bizarre stuff, right?
[753] When you're talking about like 8K video and then you're talking about 360 degree 3D.
[754] Yeah.
[755] Because it seems like if we're going to enter into a real virtual realm anytime of the near future, all this ramping up of the specs, you know, going from 4K to 8K and then, you know, 32K is just around the corner, they're just going to keep getting better at this shit.
[756] And when you're talking about something through like a high -end glass, like a really high -end, like a, you know, binocular type glass, and then having insanely high -definition video and then having this exponential jump in this virtual technology where they figure out a way to really lock you into something that is not, it's not invasive to the point where it's not like fucking with your experience by you feeling it on your head, it's very light, you know, because sometimes you're putting those bulky headsets and the goggles, you know it's over your eyes, like that's going to shrink up too.
[757] That's going to shrink up to almost nothing.
[758] And with all these, like, big jumps that they're making, how far away are we from some fully immersive avatar world?
[759] We've got to be getting close.
[760] Dude, it's going to be bananas.
[761] Do you know what's going to be like an avatar world that you could go for a journey in?
[762] I mean, imagine if movies, if what they become, because, you know, think about how these serial shows, like Sopranos, and then ultimately, you know, Game of Thrones and a lot of these other great shows, they catch you and they rope you in and they bring you into a world.
[763] And then you follow that world episode after episode and you get sucked into it, right?
[764] It's very different than a regular movie.
[765] What if they start doing these serial?
[766] I mean, I think of like Game of Thrones as a serial movie, right?
[767] there's a hundred parts to this movie but it's a big giant ass movie I mean it's it's so much better than a regular television show in terms of like special effects and the grandness of it all if they can figure out how to film something like that but let you participate in it I mean let you strap on to some 3D treadmill type thing and move around in this fucking weird world and follow these people on their journeys.
[768] Be right there when the orcs slaughter the people like the blood splatter in front of you and you're watching them get chopped up and then you're going to go over the mountain to where the castle is.
[769] You have to actually walk over the mountain.
[770] But as you walk over the mountain, horses ride beside you, you get to see them.
[771] I mean, we're real close to something like that.
[772] I feel like that's only a few years of They have Avatar World coming out soon, like in Disney, at Disney, Disney World.
[773] Oh, what are they going to do?
[774] How is that going to work?
[775] Well, one of the, they've been showing some things.
[776] Like, this is, I think this is just an imaginering idea, but this, like, you're going to be able to take a boat ride through the middle of the Navi forest.
[777] Oh, okay.
[778] Well, that looks like it's a small world with psychedelic colors.
[779] It's going to be a little bit like that, but they're going to have some VR stuff where you're going to be able to float through and go on the, yeah.
[780] Here's how they look in Disney World right now.
[781] Oh, wow.
[782] Oh, so they're building it right now.
[783] You're obviously not going to be able to walk on that.
[784] When is this going to take place?
[785] I think it opens this later this year.
[786] Disneyland doesn't play games.
[787] But what you're saying, what if they just took the extension of that, and just instead of making the Avatar movie, they just went, look, Avatar 5 is Avatar World, and if you want to come live it out, you've got to come to Disney World and pay 50 bucks or 100 bucks or 150 bucks or 300 bucks, something crazy to do it.
[788] Now you're talking.
[789] That would be awesome.
[790] This is what you do.
[791] You construct that world.
[792] And then, once you're in that world, then you put on the VR goggles.
[793] And it turns everything into fluorescent neon greens and blues and like the Avatar world.
[794] You could see everything.
[795] And then you actually watch the movie play out in there.
[796] That would be nerd -gazim.
[797] I feel like they're way closer to something like that than we are everyone being able to do this at home, probably.
[798] Well, the thing about that, though, is it.
[799] going to require so much resources and land and money and it's just I feel like a 3D treadmill and you know where you can't you don't physically go anywhere you're not going to be able to go up hills and you're not going to you're not going to feel the sensation of walking climbing things that's the only difference but you'll be able to be like right in front of it but it won't feel like grass you know what I mean like if they could figure out a way to do a virtual world where Somehow or another, you could change the textiles on the ground or change the way it feels, the tactile sensation of what you're stepping on.
[800] If you can make it feel like water, if you can make it feel like grass or dirt, if they could start doing shit like that.
[801] That doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility.
[802] It just seems like something way too smart for a dummy like me to figure out.
[803] So there's one technology at CES.
[804] There's a couple things there.
[805] I didn't get a chance to even see or make it to.
[806] wants to let you feel fabric through your touch screen.
[807] Whoa.
[808] Yeah, I...
[809] Tanvis.
[810] I couldn't find it there.
[811] There are a lot of places I think I was trying to find that I couldn't even actually just find.
[812] You know what dudes are going to use that for?
[813] You're just going to rub girls' panties and porn films.
[814] It's going to be the only application for it.
[815] Oh, it's right there.
[816] Let me touch it.
[817] It's right there.
[818] The idea of it sounds pretty interesting, though.
[819] Yeah.
[820] I mean, you can...
[821] You can have, like, a bump to it.
[822] So is it working on an iPad or something with...
[823] Yeah.
[824] It uses a little bit of like the haptic feedback that is already built into some of these things, but it uses it differently.
[825] Well, that was what was kind of cool about the HCC vibe is that haptic feedback.
[826] Because when you're doing the bow and arrow thing, it really does kind of feel like you're drawing the arrow back.
[827] It gives you a little bit of vibration as if the arrow is pulling across the arrow rest and it's rubbing on it.
[828] It's really cool.
[829] So they just made some announcements to, they're not going to make a new vibe yet, but they showed a new.
[830] head set attachment that makes the vibe fit on your head a little bit more comfortably and they showed what they're calling the tracker which is essentially the end of the controller which can be attached to they said anything so it depends what a developer makes it work with but one of the things they showed is on the end of a gun to like play different gun games they put on the end of a baseball bat and the baseball bat then you could you could see the bat in the vibe game that you were playing or the baseball simulation you were playing but they could pull in real major league baseball all pitches, actual data because they have them all from the last, I don't know, five to ten years.
[831] Any pitch from any pitcher you want to see, you can have now come at you and you can go ahead and try to hit it.
[832] Oh my God.
[833] Probably then put you theoretically in any park you want or wherever the hell you want to be swinging baseball bats.
[834] How many dudes are going to be blowing their shoulders apart?
[835] Well, swinging at the air with this thing.
[836] Hopefully all you're not like bashing your house up too, but like that idea can be expounded on.
[837] Now would you, I would think that if you were going to do something like that, you would want to do it with a bat.
[838] That's like the same weight as a real bat.
[839] You'd probably want the actual, they had an actual wooden baseball bat.
[840] They just screwed the thing on the bottom.
[841] Oh, that's crazy.
[842] So you could do it with that.
[843] You could probably have a sword.
[844] You could probably have a bow.
[845] Oh, shit.
[846] Yeah.
[847] If you had a sword, do you know what kind of a fucking awesome workout you would get?
[848] My arms were so tired at Duncan's place just for playing his archery thing.
[849] And I'm not even pulling anything back.
[850] I'm just holding my arm up.
[851] Like, there's no actual resistance pulling the bow back, but just holding your arm straight in front of you and doing this over and over again.
[852] My arms were killing me, man. I was like, this is amazing.
[853] Like, this actually has some physical benefit to it.
[854] And the boxing game, the boxing game has real benefit to it.
[855] The boxing game, I think you could learn how a person moves and how it feels like to spar with them.
[856] You see punches come out of you.
[857] You can learn how to slip punches.
[858] You can learn how to counter with things.
[859] You don't feel hitting anything.
[860] That's the only thing that's missing.
[861] You don't feel them hitting you.
[862] But at least when they hit you, you see sparks.
[863] So one of the, I'll try to find that little, it's not worth me to pull up the video, but there was a haptic feedback, essentially a backpack slash chest thing you put on for VR that would give you some sort of shocks or you'd feel something.
[864] I don't know how hard it would feel.
[865] Should jolt the shit out of you.
[866] There was another one.
[867] There's a company, and the video I watched showing that the trackers that they were adding on to different devices, they put it on a fire hose, and they also put a jacket on you that had heaters in it.
[868] So you're putting out a fire, and it's giving you feedback of the hose.
[869] It's also getting warmer, and you're getting hot.
[870] So, like, there's different, that's not really a game as more of it as a simulation, or it is a training tool for an actual fire company.
[871] Well, it's also to let you know, like, what's the potential for, like, a Doom game from, For $2 ,024.
[872] Yeah.
[873] Maybe not even, maybe two years from now, hopefully.
[874] We'll see what happens at E3 this year with what these companies are going to announce with the new Xbox is supposed to have a VR.
[875] As soon as someone comes up with a haptic feedback suit, you know, that's able to get hot and cold and vibrate and jolt and even give you a little bit of pain.
[876] Yeah, you need something.
[877] You need a little bit of pain.
[878] A little, ah, fucker, you know, where you're really feeling it.
[879] Remember that was that a, I don't know which James Bond movie it was Where they're holding on to the There's some sort of like stick they're holding on to And like the loser, it just gets more painful And like they're like, it's like a man versus man contest But there's a bunch of, it's like at a cocktail party I don't remember that one I avoided a lot of those James Bond movies Eddie Bravo said something to me a long time ago And it fucked me up We were talking about It wasn't a conspiracy thing We were talking about like action movies and he's like the problem with this action movies is you always know who's going to live the main guy's always going to live like you never oh yeah he's going to hang in by fucking thread yep he's going to make it he's going to live you know he's going to live I'm like you motherfucker like I knew that of course I knew that you go to see the Terminator or you go to see a predator you don't think that Arnold Schwarzener is going to get killed by the alien at the end no you think that's actually really bad for us isn't it it's really to have the good guy win and all of them.
[880] That's why I think like no country for old men is probably important.
[881] It's important to know that sometimes the guy who you think is going to live gets shot in the last couple of minutes of the movie and the other guy just wanders off, spoiler alert.
[882] And that's the end of the movie.
[883] And you're like, what the fuck kind of movie is this?
[884] Well, that's a movie that's more like a real live story.
[885] Arnold can't beat that alien.
[886] You know it, I know it, that thing's going to fuck him up.
[887] Why are we pretending?
[888] This is stupid.
[889] There's not a world where I can imagine that predator losing to Arnold Schwarzenegger.
[890] I can't imagine.
[891] Did you see Arnold going at the Donald the other day?
[892] No, I didn't, but I can't believe that Donald went at Arnold.
[893] He's the goddamn president, sir.
[894] Because the ratings were down.
[895] Of course.
[896] Well, he compared it to his first season, you know, and then all the 15 seasons he did afterwards.
[897] They fired him from that show for talking about Mexicans.
[898] Did you know that?
[899] That's when they fired him.
[900] They fired him from that show.
[901] and he's still the executive producer.
[902] So he's talking shit about a show that he's still the executive producer.
[903] How is he allowed to be the executive producer?
[904] Because he's fucking president.
[905] I don't know all the rules about that, but I thought there were rules about that.
[906] I mean, he's probably going to step down now that he's president.
[907] I don't know.
[908] He said he was going to do a step down from a bunch of shit now that he's president.
[909] Dude, it's going to be weird.
[910] Fucking for sure.
[911] It's going to be weird.
[912] And he's going to be weird during the weirdest era ever.
[913] It's next Friday, right?
[914] Yep, 20th.
[915] As soon as he gets in, the place.
[916] What do you think is going to happen that day?
[917] It's going to paint the White House black.
[918] Hell is going to open up right in front.
[919] It's going to be like a river of lava.
[920] Is that the actual one of the world day?
[921] Yeah, the Mayans were only off by four or five years.
[922] They were off by a little.
[923] What do they think?
[924] September 21st, 2012.
[925] So they were off a little.
[926] Four years in a month?
[927] Yeah, not that bad.
[928] Not that bad.
[929] they missed it a little bit they did it thousands years ago man if you're fucking guessing thousands of years ago I mean I wonder if there really is like a cycle where civilizations just they get to a point where all the monkey shit that led them to scratch and scrape and dominate and procreate and get to a point where they have a city and finally get a little bit of safety all of that just bites in the ass because all those, even though you've gotten past the monkey existence, all those monkey DNA human reward systems, they're all still in place and they still make you want to chase the same shit that people chased thousands of years ago.
[930] Conquest and, you know, and domination and control the food supply and now that I'm president, I'll have all the gold.
[931] Ha ha ha!
[932] ha!
[933] That need for competition.
[934] That's going to be one of things that I think technology is probably going to neutralize first.
[935] I think that when you get, when you get a hive mind type scenario, which is a hive mind or a virtual world scenario where it's literally preferable to this world, like why would you want to hang around and just go to West Hills and get lunch at some shitty place and wait in this thing and then go to the movie?
[936] Why would you even want to do that when you get all your food through an IV And you're going to live in the avatar world for a couple of weeks People would do it dude Food would probably be the only problem like food and taking a shit There's another black mirror episode you just started saying It happened from time to time like you just start going down a concept And it's like that's that's a black mirror episode An original fuck What can I say It was just an idea that you can go live in another place That's going to happen amount of time what's the name of that episode i want to watch it san junipero i think is that one it's gonna happen man it's just a matter of time and when it does happen it might be a complete mental experience like you might get out of this and you might be like those poor guys who come back after uh space walks you know those guys that uh are up there like um um um uh hatfield commander hatfield i had him on the podcast and he was describing after being i think he was up for six months it was a long fucking time and when he came back down like his body's brittle it takes like a year for your bone density to come back like your whole you're a mess you can't stand you're throwing up all over the place your whole body's so baffled because you've been up in space for six months like those guys make a tremendous sacrifice so that we can understand like what happens to people's bodies and zero gravity like all these people that are signing up to to Mars and want to go on all these journeys into space like settle the fuck down okay we might be able to go to better spots that we just stay right here we need to put a a roof on this thing we got rocks flying in need to put a goddamn roof on the planet build that first a big ass thick roof with LCD screens so at the bottom of it it just shows nothing but beautiful skies everywhere you go it's going to be like the Truman show and there's going to be a big scoop that catches all the rain the rain's going to fall on the outside it's going to get funneled through but we need like a four -foot wall now it would even matter the kind of asteroids that killed the dinosaurs I think they said something crazy like it was five miles deep into the earth within the first half a second yeah I might have made those numbers but it's in that range where it's so preposterous I remember hearing this guy speak about it and you know talking about just the impact that the earth rang for a million years bang rang from the impact for a million years what the fuck is that like so we can't really have a we need something better than a roof that's what I'm trying to say work on that first then your goddamn virtual reality then think about going to Mars I was listening to Richard Dawkins talked to Sam Harris today on this podcast.
[937] It's very interesting.
[938] But one of the things they were talking about is people going to Mars.
[939] And if they did colonize Mars, the genes on Mars would not be in contact with the genes back here on Earth.
[940] And would human beings go off in different directions?
[941] And then on top of that, genetic manipulation, once genetic manipulation gets perfected, and they start really fucking with people's DNA and really changing what people look like and how they can perform and how their brains work, what is it going to be like in comparison, like the guys that are doing that on Earth versus the people that are doing it on Mars.
[942] Yeah.
[943] That's weird.
[944] And the atmospheres are obviously different, just in general, because so the way cells would grow would just be different.
[945] He can't breathe it.
[946] You have to somehow or another, they're going to have to terraform, create an atmosphere, or they're going to have to put some kind of like domes up and live inside the domes which is terrifying Is that I feel like Was it an interstellar Where they made We didn't like We didn't colonize planets But we made like floating Terraform cylinders And we lived on those Is that what that was?
[947] I didn't watch that whole movie I got to most way Mostly into that movie And I fell asleep on a plane So you didn't I didn't see the end Seeing that movie at the Chinese theater, which was where I saw it down in Hollywood, when they go into the black hole.
[948] I remember even reading, that's where Christopher Nolan was test watching that movie.
[949] It was so loud and so big.
[950] It made that such an awesome experience.
[951] Oh, the Chinese theater is amazing.
[952] Yeah, I love the scene.
[953] It makes bad movies good.
[954] Yeah, I saw Pulp Fiction there.
[955] I was like, holy shit.
[956] That was when Pulp Fiction first came out.
[957] I guess it was like 94 or something.
[958] Yeah, man. I didn't see that movie, but that Matt Damon movie, The Martian, was all about terraforming and trying to survive on Mars.
[959] Did you watch The Arrival yet?
[960] I almost watched that today.
[961] No, I haven't seen it.
[962] Heard's really good, though.
[963] It looks really good.
[964] But that kind of came and went, huh?
[965] I mean, kind of.
[966] But is that just how it goes now?
[967] Yeah, it's too fast.
[968] Things are too good, too much.
[969] People want to watch them at home now.
[970] Yeah, that too.
[971] They're going to start allowing that to happen, I think.
[972] Yeah, charge me more.
[973] Yeah.
[974] Charge me 50 bucks.
[975] Nobody's figured out how to get through the, well, maybe they have, get through the Apple TV and download it, have they?
[976] No, I don't like to steal from that.
[977] I don't think so.
[978] You don't like to steal from that, such a thing?
[979] No, no, no. Are you asking, I was saying, you mean steal from that?
[980] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[981] I don't think so, I don't know.
[982] I don't think anybody's been able to do that.
[983] Maybe they have.
[984] But, like, when you're streaming, like, you're streaming, I guess if you were streaming to a computer, there might be a way to do it, a screen capture in some sort of way.
[985] Maybe.
[986] I don't know because they have it built into the, well, I guess it's streaming.
[987] A lot of the HDMI cables now, if you're, when you have your Xbox or you're another system hooked up to something that you're trying to do game capturing on to like broadcast on Twitch or something, if you bring up a video or like your TV turns on, it goes black because it knows that that signal is bad.
[988] It's not supposed to be broadcast.
[989] It's not the game signal.
[990] It's the TV signal.
[991] And you'll probably, people's trying to show.
[992] TV online that knows that they're trying to whatever they put to just put that stop in there right but that seems like that could be removed right or have to maybe maybe but I feel like there's got to be a way to take Apple like when you're using your computer you can use a regular computer and watch things on iTunes correct yes right so if you were using a regular computer and you were streaming a movie like there's got to be a way that you would be able to screen capture that with your computer Oh, yeah, for sure.
[993] But just open up a program, you mean just and record?
[994] And you'd have just some big -ass file that would be like The Hobbit or whatever the hell you were screened.
[995] There's probably a way they can put in some sort of digital right management thing that it will put.
[996] You can't record to that or it'll put a big watermark on if you try to do that or maybe not.
[997] And then someone will hack away against it.
[998] And that's like a battle probably going on too.
[999] A battle that will go on forever, right?
[1000] Yeah.
[1001] And they'll just make a new file format and then videos will.
[1002] be in that file format for the next five years until it gets hacked.
[1003] I keep playing cat and mouse games, I think.
[1004] It's just really interesting.
[1005] When we're looking at that video or the article, rather, about the people that were transmitting Ola and Chow back and forth through the internet and then think about this kind of stuff that you're talking about, like really high -level digital management.
[1006] You're putting out 4K imagery.
[1007] you're streaming movies and people are trying to steal it and, you know, think about all the bit torrents and all the different files that are available online when it comes to all these movies at Hollywood Studios spend millions of dollars to make and then boom, a screener's online, like moments before it's released.
[1008] And like this constant battle of technologies, it's just, it's really crazy because we could just sit here and, like, just show up at this CES.
[1009] We don't have to participate at all.
[1010] Show up every year.
[1011] What do you got now?
[1012] Okay, see in a year What do you got now?
[1013] Can you read my mind yet?
[1014] Nope, not.
[1015] I'll see you in a year.
[1016] What about now?
[1017] Well, we can't read your mind, but we can send you images.
[1018] Okay, well, see you in a year.
[1019] Can you read my mind yet?
[1020] He just keep going back.
[1021] Like, you don't have to do any work.
[1022] Like, no one gets mad at us.
[1023] It's not like the people in the village that had to go get the water.
[1024] Like, you drink water every day, you fuck, you never go and get water.
[1025] They never ask you to get water.
[1026] You just got to give them money and they'll just keep doing it.
[1027] it.
[1028] You just show up every, and they never go, what do I have here?
[1029] What do you have for me?
[1030] What do you have for me if you want to see my mind reading machine?
[1031] I got money.
[1032] Not good enough.
[1033] Nobody ever says that.
[1034] You know, like, you don't have to, you literally don't have to participate in it to enjoy the benefits of it.
[1035] It's a rare thing.
[1036] I was trying to think of, like, at the, one of the car companies outside was showing some stuff, but it was like they called it a statue.
[1037] but it was supposed to be an actual model of a car.
[1038] They called the car a statue?
[1039] Yeah.
[1040] Because it doesn't have a drive train in it?
[1041] There were people sitting in it.
[1042] It was supposed to look like whatever a future thing was.
[1043] But the girl that kept, she was telling you what was going on and explaining things to you, she kept referring to the car as a statue.
[1044] I thought that was weird because I think I've tried to show it to you before.
[1045] We were like, is that real?
[1046] Does that work?
[1047] That's legal ease.
[1048] Yeah, that doesn't work then.
[1049] That when you call something a statue, you could say that it's a prototype.
[1050] Like, this is what we hope it looks like in the future.
[1051] But based on what?
[1052] Like, do you know what the image is?
[1053] Can you pull it up?
[1054] I was trying to remember what was it.
[1055] I want to say it because...
[1056] It seems like if you just called it a statue, you could just totally bullshit people.
[1057] It doesn't have to have any basis in, you know, real engineering or anything.
[1058] You just say it's a statue.
[1059] And you could just have, like, a design concepts to it.
[1060] Was it a concept as far as, like, a...
[1061] crazy technological vehicle.
[1062] I think that's what they were trying to show off.
[1063] The tech inside?
[1064] Yeah.
[1065] Have you seen, like, what new cars are doing now where all their dashboards are all LCDs?
[1066] That's what I was trying.
[1067] I mean, that's what they were trying to show, I think, a little bit, was like this is what the new dashboard and everything's going to look like.
[1068] Go ahead and sit in there.
[1069] It's crazy.
[1070] Whatever.
[1071] One of the BMW, I think it was an I -8, and they had it inside the event.
[1072] There was a long line for this, so I 100 % wasn't waiting.
[1073] But you put on, though, I think it was the Microsoft Surface with it, which I don't know why you would have this on while you're driving, but maybe in the future we'll be doing that.
[1074] And you're getting all sorts of extra information, at least, but it's just a prototype.
[1075] So I don't know.
[1076] You weren't driving down the street, so I don't know what they were showing to you.
[1077] They're just blasting stuff in your face on what it might look like.
[1078] Wow.
[1079] I don't know what you would be wanting to see, though, also.
[1080] what just seems like whatever you know whatever possibilities they have now it's you you just try to extrapolate you try to add up the steps between now and five to ten years from now it's going to be really weird did you see the DARPA one of the DARPA announcements we're talking about all the different well it wasn't an announcement there were um it was an interview they did with one of the guys i tweeted it so you could find it on my Twitter timeline but they're essentially saying the new inventions over the next 12 months are just going to blow people's minds.
[1081] So apparently they're working on some really heavy -duty stuff when it comes to neural implants, things along those lines I think he was mentioning.
[1082] This is DARPA's biotech chief says 2017 will blow our minds, air quotes.
[1083] The Pentagon's research and development division, creative force behind the internet and GPS retooled itself three years ago to create a new office dedicated to unraveling biology's engineering secrets.
[1084] The new biological technology's office has a mission to harness the power of biological systems and design new defense technology.
[1085] They're going to make Terminators, right?
[1086] Over the past year with a budget of about $296 million, it has been exploring challenges.
[1087] including memory improvement, human machine symbiosis, and speeding up disease detection and response.
[1088] Fuck, dude, listen to what that says.
[1089] Human machine symbiosis.
[1090] They're making a fucking terminator.
[1091] They're going to make a terminator.
[1092] 100%.
[1093] If someone comes along and one of the first pieces of artificial intelligence is a soldier.
[1094] A machine soldier that makes no mistakes, feels no emotion, does everything it's told, can send back data in 4K in real time and you watch on a screen through its eyes and tell it what to do and it's invincible.
[1095] What?
[1096] Of course they're going to build that.
[1097] Why wouldn't we just send those to Mars?
[1098] We would, probably.
[1099] But people want to go to Mars because they want to be the first.
[1100] You know, I'm here.
[1101] We're doing yoga on Mars.
[1102] We're all amazing.
[1103] Like I saw a couple of those, you know, they're not brand new, but like a robot assistance, essentially, where it's like a laptop or an iPad screen that's attached to a droid or a little robot and there's someone on there talking to answer questions or whatever and they can control it moving around the room.
[1104] Have you ever seen those?
[1105] No. I kind of just walked by and I thought it was funny because there was three of them people were talking to and there's just one guy no one was talking to and you just look bored just like moving around like someone talking like someone talked to me. What was the most impressive thing for you at the event?
[1106] Man, honestly that I'd have to, it was weird probably just because I was looking for it but that camera that 3d stereoscopic camera yeah 360 camera but again I'm not sure if what I was seeing was the rendered video because that's specifically what I kept asking to see when I would walk up to one of these guys I didn't want to I don't I don't want to be pitched I just want to see what your rendered video looks like right what is it the output most of what I was seeing wasn't great or didn't look better than what's currently on the market except for that and then a couple didn't even do audio or you couldn't mix audio into it and for our purpose which is I was looking for it to help here in the future I was trying to knock that out there were a couple of car things mostly just the BMW 750 the coolest one they were showing those off there they're also doing test drives of like M6s and I think some of the self -driving cars maybe I think the 750 drives itself too I think that's the big one that does but I believe it makes you put your hand on the wheel but it'll drive which is even freaky here like imagine it's driving for you but the idea is like if it fucks up like what am i doing then why's my hands here i didn't see it i didn't i didn't uh take it on a test drive myself but they had one sitting out that you could like get in and just kind of like sit in and whatnot with all the extra screens everywhere but the back seat which probably is i don't i probably just didn't know this it's basically like a first class luxury seat like they had you could lift your feet up stick it on the back of the seat there was a place for them they have massageries yeah it was insane yeah they give you a back rub Speaking of massage, I don't know if it's hot technology right now or if some companies are very smart knowing people are walking around this event, tired and need a massage.
[1107] But the lines for massage chairs at CES were insane.
[1108] Well, think about this, Jamie.
[1109] You run all the time.
[1110] I mean, how many miles a week do you run?
[1111] I don't know, I haven't been doing it very often, but at my height, probably 30, but maybe 10.
[1112] 10 a week now?
[1113] What's going on with you now?
[1114] I just kind of weight training instead of running.
[1115] Oh, getting yoked.
[1116] Young Jamie getting swore.
[1117] Yeah.
[1118] My point is, you're a very fit guy, and you exercise on a regular basis.
[1119] So for you to walk 25 miles, if that's a strain for you, imagine what it is for a bunch of these fatties.
[1120] No offense.
[1121] No need to fat shame.
[1122] You know what you are.
[1123] No big deal.
[1124] You know, I mean, it's got to be really fucking hard.
[1125] If you're really poorly fed, you know, you're eating a bunch of shitty food, and you're out of shape, and you're overweight, and you're walking around CES.
[1126] geeked out of your mind on caffeine.
[1127] It's probably a good start for the new year.
[1128] I think you just keep that going.
[1129] Yeah.
[1130] Walk 10 miles a day every day.
[1131] That way it'll peel off you.
[1132] Find a hill, unless you live in Iowa or some flat spot.
[1133] Find a fucking hill.
[1134] Walk up hills.
[1135] It's the hardest thing.
[1136] I've got one right in front of my house.
[1137] It's amazing.
[1138] It's 200 yards uphill.
[1139] Take a backpack.
[1140] Throw some fucking sandbags in the backpack.
[1141] Walk up the hill.
[1142] And then get off the trail.
[1143] Get off the trail and just walk up the hill hill, like walk up the grass and the dirt so it slides and you have to correct yourself it's one of the best workouts you could do i i was in pretty fucking good shape the first time i ever went hiking with steve ranella when we went hunting and just following him walking up hills did we die it's the second time it's happened it's the video is still recording but the stream is just kaputting so if do you think it's um the machine or is it the connection with youtube we don't know Did you find, speaking of which, did you find any new streaming solutions?
[1144] So right now, for people who don't know, we're using a tricaster set up, and it's okay.
[1145] It's really good for the most part, but it has fucked us in the ass at least three or four times.
[1146] Pretty hard.
[1147] There, there wasn't a lot of stuff because it's, again, that was the consumer show.
[1148] Right.
[1149] There's not, consumers aren't really out here streaming four or five different devices at once and all that.
[1150] But I did find a couple of things that were close.
[1151] I don't know there were upgrades of stuff we used to use like a couple years ago well if you think about how many episodes we have what are we on like 880 episodes 896 okay there you go how it's how little eye attention 896 so think about that 896 fucking episodes and it's shit out how many times even let's see and knock down to that so we're probably did 400 or so on here and it's probably shit out four or five times that's not good one one percent that's not good yeah it's not very good it shouldn't at all that's way that's way too often i mean maybe we're fucked up maybe we did something wrong maybe uh i don't know maybe our machine just got a weird bug to it yeah i don't know i mean i've reset it multiple times and i have problems i do the protocol of update do you think it's just because it's long term i mean we're doing these for hours and hours at a time it could be up we do stress the hell out of it yeah if you think about like what we do and but you know what my friend um justin i know when he's doing the action report same thing right yeah he was streaming for six hours at a time i couldn't yeah i think every time i think that i find another comparison of it's like well they do just about as long justin i don't remember having any problems with his system yeah no no maybe we got a whack system dude it could have been we want lemons happen with cars from time of time there could have just been some component in here that was bad that we've gotten around working with that now it's just not going to work anymore cars are another interesting thing along the same lines we were talking about earlier about technology is that it's reaching this point where like there's way too much car for like what you need like they're putting out these cars right right out of GM like they have this new Camaro have you seen the Camaro ZL1 it's insane I think it has five I don't know how many horsepower it has Find out how many horsebacked house.
[1152] $6 .50.
[1153] $6 .50.
[1154] Jesus Christ.
[1155] And it's got a Corvette Z -O -6 engine in it with a supercharger.
[1156] It's an unbelievable car.
[1157] Like this is a zero to 60, sub -four -second zero -to -60 car.
[1158] Massive, all that, see that stuff in the front?
[1159] That's all designed to, like, keep the body down, all those aerodynamic little flares and stuff.
[1160] That's designed for downfall.
[1161] so that this thing can go fucking screaming up to like 200 miles an hour.
[1162] It's crazy.
[1163] You could just buy that in a store.
[1164] You could go to the Chevy dealership and buy one of the most competent sports cars ever created.
[1165] Like that car, remember those Ferraris from a few years ago?
[1166] Like 360 Modena or the one after that 4 -5 -8, those beautiful Ferraris.
[1167] That fucking car will bury one of those things.
[1168] I mean, into the dirt.
[1169] Goodbye.
[1170] I suck my dick, kiss my ass.
[1171] America, fuck yeah, screaming the entire time.
[1172] America, fuck yeah.
[1173] And it's $65 ,000, $70 ,000.
[1174] Yeah, that car is American muscle at its finest, plus technology.
[1175] Because, you know, real American muscles, kind of loose and crazy.
[1176] Real American, like, if you bought a real 1969 Mustang Mach 1, I mean, there are, gorgeous car i mean it is a stunning piece of art but if you had to drive it today you would uh you would be terrified you'd be thinking the entire time like oh my god i'm driving a death machine like they're so bad in comparison to a brand new mustang like if you bought a brand new mustang gt which i think you can get for 35 000 i think i think a new mustang gt is like between 35 and 39 thousand dollars and they are way fast your handle way better than anything top of the line from, you know, the 1970s.
[1177] Yeah, how much does this cost?
[1178] $1 .35.
[1179] That's crazy.
[1180] It's a stunning car.
[1181] That car is $420 -something horsepower?
[1182] $4 .35.
[1183] That's a beast of a car for $35 ,000, $15 miles a gallon, $25 on the highway.
[1184] See, like what they've done by continuing to ramp up the specs, ramp up the regular car that you buy from a dealership is equivalent to like one of the best cars ever just 10 years ago or 20 years ago so the technology is so ahead of its time that you go back to 97 and you look at the cars that were like the top of the food chain back in 97 like they didn't even compare they're just nothing like these things and they're going to keep doing it The only thing that, like, there was some cars from 97 that have some attributes that people like, like those old land cruisers.
[1185] If you bought a land cruiser from Toyota in, like, 97, you essentially got an off -road vehicle.
[1186] They had two solid axle, solid front axle, solid rear axle.
[1187] You could take those things and just drive up the side of a fucking mountain in it with the right tires.
[1188] They were crazy, beefy, like right out of the bat.
[1189] And so people to this day, they take.
[1190] take those cars and they jack them up and put bigger tires and wheels on them and they put corvette engines in them just because the configuration is so durable like they don't really make too many i mean there's only a few companies that'll make like a real a car that you could actually take right now and just go drive like a jeep's a perfect example you can take a jeep kind of like right off the factory floor and drive to most places that most cars can't get to or at least drive to places that most cars can't get to but when you want to get further and further into it they start doing all these crazy modifications to these things and make them so that they could literally just drive through the woods what are you looking up there fellow I just remembered this badass supercar that I saw at CES it was 3D printed oh Jesus it's called the divergent I think the company that makes it's called divergent 3D and this is called the blade oh do you sit in the middle like a total badass yeah Oh, that needs to happen.
[1191] I think the whole entire thing is 3D printers.
[1192] Shut the fuck.
[1193] That is just such a...
[1194] That's like the alien from John Carpenter movie.
[1195] Not John Carpenter.
[1196] Ridley Scott.
[1197] Ridley Scott's alien?
[1198] It's like if he drove a car.
[1199] Like it was on his planet.
[1200] Look at that thing.
[1201] One seat.
[1202] Yeah, someone could probably sit behind you too.
[1203] I was trying to find the specs to see.
[1204] I don't know.
[1205] How weird.
[1206] I wasn't sure to either, though, if it like was it a car that can drive or if they're just also had a concept of showing like look we can put these pieces out in 3D printing because I saw a 3D metal company that was printing stuff in metal it looks like it works though these cars today man it's it's really interesting because they're backed into this weird corner where how much better can they keep getting and how long before they're all automated because it seems like just a matter of time.
[1207] It seems like just a few years from now they're all going to be automated.
[1208] That's what a lot of the companies were showing off their automation, like Mercedes, I think, Nissan, Toyota, even in Vida.
[1209] The video game card company was showing off I don't know, exactly the...
[1210] Their software, I think, or their hardware that was being put into cars to show you like how things were being read.
[1211] Like, this is a car, this is a light, this is a person.
[1212] Yeah.
[1213] Just like how it's being recognized and whatnot.
[1214] I mean, it's going to go, Mercedes was showing it, and I think BMW got into a car wreck, but I don't think it was their autonomous car.
[1215] Look at that fucking car.
[1216] Look at that goddamn car.
[1217] And then Faraday.
[1218] We're looking at the Camaro Z -L -1 folks who are just listening.
[1219] There's images of it online.
[1220] You can go look at it.
[1221] I had the Faraday.
[1222] So what's a Faraday?
[1223] Because didn't Fisker have a new car, too?
[1224] They came back, right?
[1225] The Fisker karma?
[1226] Yeah, but I don't know if they were showing this at the event.
[1227] So this is an electronic car?
[1228] This is an all electronic car that was being shown off there.
[1229] They had a little issue with like their reverse while they were doing their demo.
[1230] So like, again, one of the problems is it doesn't always, nothing goes perfect.
[1231] I think they tried to announce this last year and they had some bigger issues.
[1232] Did you ever see the Volvo ad where the president of the company stands right in front of the Volvo?
[1233] And it hits them.
[1234] Yeah.
[1235] It sends them flying.
[1236] It's like, this has technology to avoid, you know, contact with humans.
[1237] and it just fucking runs him over.
[1238] He went flying.
[1239] That guy probably broke his hip on that.
[1240] It's happened a few times when they've tried to do things.
[1241] People just stand in front of it trying to show off.
[1242] Chas Bono's working for this company?
[1243] How dare I. Here's the car, though.
[1244] Ooh.
[1245] So they're going to, I don't know if they're going to be direct competitor.
[1246] Oh, it's a screen in the background.
[1247] Whoa.
[1248] Like this is going to be like a big competitor to or another car like a Tesla.
[1249] I think they're going to be on the market this year If not already I think you can pre -order them now Not very good looking Kind of boring Not super sexy looking Nope kind of boring Very sexy looking Yeah that's a problem Ooh I like how they have the gangster doors though They have suicide doors in the back Yeah a lot of them were doing suicide doors The Volkswagen had a suicide door The doors went up Look how the door shuts itself too How about you save fucking battery power And let me shut the door What is that Everybody wants to be like a space man door shut shutting shutting Dave how shut the door that doesn't look good you guys had all this time to design this thing spent all this money and you made a fucking Lexus mom car well that happened I wanted to like sort of ask you that I don't know that was one question so like you know when they do a car show the show let's say that they're going to do one this year they'll show a car for 2020 and it's going to look super high concept by the time it comes out it won't look that way sometimes sometimes yeah well they they smooth out edges and make things cheaper to build and there's a lot of cars that start out in concept form and then when they get ultimately delivered they're disappointing you know come out with a bunch of different uh things that they add to them that just turn out to be too expensive is that what it is they're just they try is the same kind of idea they're just trying something depends entirely on the car company too like Toyota like say if someone comes up with Toyota has the most expensive car they sell is the land cruiser that big four wheel drive SUV that's their most expensive car it's pretty expensive it's like I think you get one they're all loaded you only get them one way and they're like 90 something like 90 ,000 so if you're building something that's going to get more upscale than that then it becomes a bit of an issue right doesn't that make sense accidentally I was looking for Toyota Supercars as this came up and the Toyota Supra might be coming out again.
[1250] Yeah, they're gonna.
[1251] That's the one question.
[1252] Like, will it look like this when it comes out?
[1253] Right, that's a perfect example.
[1254] Like, that's a concept car.
[1255] I think it'll probably look a lot like that because that looks awesome.
[1256] I mean, if they wanted to make some money.
[1257] But like then all those angles and all that stuff, like, is it more expensive?
[1258] Is it less expensive?
[1259] What do we do about that wing?
[1260] How does it deploy?
[1261] Is it mechanical?
[1262] How much does that cost?
[1263] You know, what kind of brakes are we using?
[1264] And which kind of, you know, it really gets into this weird area when it comes to these cars, but they also have to be stunning in terms of their ability because cars today are off the charts.
[1265] What you could buy from a Subaru WRX, just one of those little suboros, that is an insane little car, you know, and I don't think those are very expensive either.
[1266] I think that's in like Mustang GT range, right?
[1267] Or it's like in the 30s?
[1268] Yeah, I think it's around 32 to 35, I'm pretty sure.
[1269] Take that to 1970, and you will destroy any car on the road.
[1270] There's nothing comes close to it.
[1271] They would think you were from another fucking planet.
[1272] If you took that on a race car, race car track, you'd just blowing people away.
[1273] They'd be like, what in the fuck?
[1274] Is it just particular car companies, or are a lot of the newer cars getting harder to fix, too, where they have to be fixed by the dealer?
[1275] They all have to be fixed by the dealer.
[1276] Everything is computer program now.
[1277] They have mines.
[1278] You know, the computer programmer, or the program, rather, that's running the car runs the traction control system, the lane change system, you know, accident avoidance system.
[1279] Some of them hit the brakes for you.
[1280] Some of them, alarms go off when you get close.
[1281] So they've got sensors, they got cameras.
[1282] So getting your car fixed at a local, by a local guy somewhere.
[1283] It's not happening anymore.
[1284] Yeah, that's going to be phased out.
[1285] It's going to be all dealerships.
[1286] It's going to be like getting a computer fixed.
[1287] I mean, it's really going to be like a super high -tech computer with rubber and metal and all this jazz that.
[1288] connects it to the ground uh that m k market marquez brownley mark i don't know how you say his name actually but mkbhd on youtube he got a i don't know the dude has been here when we yeah marquez i don't think he got a full lemon but his he had a Tesla issue so he just got a new Tesla and his like drive train was locking up oh yeah fixed and then he got it back and it got it locked up again wrong dude to fuck over with a shitty car he should have fucking tested that one first that cost you some money right yeah that guy gives really good review his online reviews of technology are one of my favorites him but him and lewis from unboxed therapy are my there are two of my favorites yeah man those things are not perfect but nothing electronic is is you know what are you going to do somebody fucks up somebody put it together wrong there's some issues in the wiring who knows that's part of why i'm not always super convinced when someone goes full like this is going to be this is how it's going to be in the future it's because we still even today with all this cool the coolest shit we have there are still major, major problems that haven't been fixed.
[1289] And I don't see full fixes for them.
[1290] Like which ones do you think can't be fixed?
[1291] Tesla's, like if they're going to be full.
[1292] They'll fix that.
[1293] They'll fix that for 100%.
[1294] Just stop and think about how clunky computers were just a few years ago.
[1295] You know, just when 1995, Windows 95 came along.
[1296] Think about how clunky the operating system was, the blue screen of death.
[1297] You know, I mean, computers were crap.
[1298] But this still happens all the time.
[1299] time.
[1300] Right, but not nearly as much as it did then.
[1301] Think about how many computers operate how many things all throughout your life and how rarely they crash.
[1302] If they crash one percent of the time, like the you know, the tricaster, we'd get pissed.
[1303] Which were spoiled little babies.
[1304] Back then, when you had Windows 95, you had to back up things every 20 minutes.
[1305] You could fucking crash at any moment.
[1306] You were sticking in floppy drives and backing up files and stuff.
[1307] True.
[1308] It's better.
[1309] It's better now.
[1310] It's going to be better soon.
[1311] I mean, whatever the issues that they have with Tesla cars, or maybe it's just one Tesla that just somebody fucked up, maybe somebody just put a wire in and had a scratch and who knows?
[1312] What the fuck knows?
[1313] I don't know anything.
[1314] I don't know.
[1315] I don't know.
[1316] Maybe it's a cynic view of it.
[1317] I've had, let me tell you this, though.
[1318] I've had two of those Lexus, those big Toyota Land Cruiser trucks, the Lexus F5 -750, LX -750.
[1319] No, 570.
[1320] LX570.
[1321] That's what it is.
[1322] The big ass truck.
[1323] They fucking never break.
[1324] Like, nothing goes wrong with them.
[1325] Ever.
[1326] I mean, ever.
[1327] Nothing goes wrong.
[1328] They just, every morning, start it, drive it.
[1329] Oh, it needs oil.
[1330] Bring into the place.
[1331] They put the oil in.
[1332] They check everything.
[1333] Everything's great.
[1334] See ya.
[1335] Bye.
[1336] No problems.
[1337] I'll try by range rovers.
[1338] There's a brand new range rover.
[1339] It's got one headlight on and fucking smoke's coming out of the hood.
[1340] Like, what happened?
[1341] Like, what is the difference between a car that's, like, a super reliable car company, like Toyota, and a car company, you know, like, if you get a Maserati, you get a Maserati because it's beautiful.
[1342] You don't get a Maserati because you're planning on driving to the fucking moon, and you need it to stay together.
[1343] It's not going to.
[1344] It's just not.
[1345] It sounds awesome.
[1346] You start it up, but if you get that car, you get in it because it's sexy.
[1347] You're not getting it because it's well -designed.
[1348] Yeah, I guess.
[1349] I don't know.
[1350] I want everything to be awesome.
[1351] I think it should have already happened sometimes.
[1352] You're like those kids in that Lego movie.
[1353] Everything is awesome.
[1354] Do you remember that?
[1355] I didn't see it.
[1356] Everything is awesome.
[1357] Dude, it's a cute movie.
[1358] I saw it with my kids.
[1359] My kids love the Lego movies, but I enjoyed it.
[1360] I genuinely enjoyed it.
[1361] The Lego movie was good.
[1362] I just saw a commercial for the newer one.
[1363] I think it's got Batman on all the Warner Bros. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1364] That looks okay.
[1365] Dude, they're fun.
[1366] They're really well written.
[1367] They're fun.
[1368] I mean, you can't be waiting for things to be deep.
[1369] Yeah.
[1370] I'm tired of deep, Jamie.
[1371] I'm really, really tired of it.
[1372] I'm less deep every year.
[1373] For real.
[1374] Like, something that Ron White said when he was on the podcast, keep lying and stay drunk.
[1375] Like, I'm paraphrasing.
[1376] Stay drunk and keep lying.
[1377] I mean, in some ways, the best way.
[1378] to handle things, just not go deep.
[1379] Yeah.
[1380] Like, the deeper you go.
[1381] Like, I feel like we're clinging to simplicity with the last of our fingernails.
[1382] That's what I think.
[1383] And I think just sitting on your fucking back porch, smoking a cigar, drinking a glass of lemonade, I think that's a thing of the past in just a few decades.
[1384] I think we're going to enter into some super bizarre world that's, like DARPA is talking about, symbiosis, human computer symbiosis.
[1385] I mean, people complain now that kids don't go outside they're sitting at home every day playing x -box just imagine what it's going to be like when we get to these really intense augmented and virtual reality spaces are you scared no i just i think of that stuff about kids all the time i don't have one so i can't uh i don't i don't see the day -to -day their interactions and how they're different to mine but i just compare because my generation or i'm i just turned 34 but i just i feel like i've just missed out on so many things the year after i left high school they all got like tablet PCs for everyone it's like literally the year after i left and like you were the last yeah it's good to talk about you maybe one day if you have kids yeah my dad grew up they didn't even have the tablet PCs in the class the year after he got out that's when they came in whoa but i would i don't know how things would have been different had we had them because uh whatever we know we always always look back like if i could go back to high school now with everything i know Oh, yeah, I dominate.
[1386] Kill everything.
[1387] You know what you would do?
[1388] You wouldn't be nervous.
[1389] That's why you would dominate.
[1390] True.
[1391] Yeah.
[1392] But if some kid decided to kick your ass, you'd still kick your ass.
[1393] That would be disturbing.
[1394] But I didn't even mean it like on the whole, on the whole thing like that, I'm just going on specifically like a technology run.
[1395] Like if you had, if I took all my computer knowledge I have now and had an iPad when I was in high school, and we could communicate with everyone throughout the whole high school all day at any time we wanted to.
[1396] mm whereas like we had to write and we were writing notes i still have i found a note from a girl in high school like not too long ago and like a no box it's like it's a literal note dear jamie yeah dumb shit how i miss your touch stupid questions of like this is what's do you like me yes or no so check here like that they might write notes still today that might still be a thing it probably is i don't want to be that oh yeah but like the purpose of it isn't there anymore yeah it's way more text messages than notes yeah so this is and then uh facetiming people we couldn't that wasn't even a possibility we had to literally if i wanted to call like if if i if i was in school with your kids they'd be calling your house like hey is so -and -so home can i talk to them they go get them and then we get to talk for 20 or 30 minutes maybe yeah what was the first year where Skype came out where people started skyping probably within the last 10 years and there was easy there was light communication back then, but it was terrible.
[1397] Well, if that's one of the things that Apple has nailed, having FaceTime in its operating system, so it just automatically works.
[1398] You know, you don't have to download anything.
[1399] You have to go get Skype.
[1400] Like, if you have an Android phone, do you have to download Skype, or does it come with your phone?
[1401] I don't know, but I think that they have a thing, too.
[1402] They have an Android thing, too?
[1403] That's just like it.
[1404] But what's fucked up is it doesn't communicate with the Apple thing.
[1405] Right.
[1406] Like, you have to get an, like, everybody's got to, like, come to.
[1407] Well, there's new apps, too.
[1408] I mean, you can do it through, you could do it through Facebook now.
[1409] There's a new one that's blowing up right now called House Party, which you can have, like, eight people on.
[1410] And everyone can be having a video chat, you know?
[1411] Yeah, but that's an app that you have to download.
[1412] Like, it should be just like a phone call.
[1413] It should be.
[1414] Like phone to phone.
[1415] It should be phone to phone communication with Android to Apple.
[1416] It seems silly to me that they go proprietary on that.
[1417] Apple's got a bunch of really sneaky ways to keep you around, man. That iMessage is one of them.
[1418] FaceTime is another.
[1419] What is it when the airdrop?
[1420] Airdrop's another one for images, no compression, sends it through Bluetooth.
[1421] It's amazing for videos and pictures and stuff.
[1422] To say it's a problem isn't the right word, but that they are like the only record label, basically, right?
[1423] A record distribution place.
[1424] They control a lot of it.
[1425] That's kind of crazy, too.
[1426] It is.
[1427] Well, it's interesting, too, that a lot of musicians complain about that.
[1428] Like Apple is the biggest music company in the world now.
[1429] They take 30 % of every transaction.
[1430] Do they really?
[1431] I'm pretty sure.
[1432] Well, they win.
[1433] That's so like they definitely win.
[1434] Everyone wanted an answer.
[1435] There is an answer.
[1436] And it's like, well, now you're not necessarily happy with the answer.
[1437] But you got one.
[1438] It's a very weird company in that regard.
[1439] Because it's also like the loyalists, the Apple loyalists are so extreme.
[1440] Like people who worship at the cult of Mac and Apple, Like, I had a conversation with a dude It was sincerely bummed out That I started using a Windows computer It's like so sad He was really sad It's like, come on dude It's a fucking computer It's just a computer Yeah Just relax You know what I do it?
[1441] I type words I tape words And I look at porn And I read dig I read a few things It's not a lot of processing power Going on here I'm not making videos It's nothing on it You know I just don't understand Why Everybody would get It's so attached to a company, you know?
[1442] It's a brand loyal.
[1443] It's weird.
[1444] Brand loyalty's real weird.
[1445] This is Chevy Country.
[1446] If you listen quietly, you'll hear Ford's rusting.
[1447] There's so many dorks like that.
[1448] Like they have Calvin and Hobbs.
[1449] Like he's standing on the Chevy logo, pissing on the Ford logo.
[1450] Imagine putting that on your car.
[1451] Imagine being that fucking stupid.
[1452] If you're listening to this and you have that on your car, don't change.
[1453] Stay yourself, man. It's all right.
[1454] Change if you want to.
[1455] But don't worry about me. What else did you see there?
[1456] Anything else worth discussing?
[1457] Let's see.
[1458] How long were there for one day?
[1459] I got there Friday and Saturday.
[1460] And when did you feel the stomach flu coming on?
[1461] Wednesday night.
[1462] Oh, dude.
[1463] Fuck, man. But powered through.
[1464] I was also kind of like wonder.
[1465] I could have just been one of those 24 -hour things where I was like, I feel like shit now.
[1466] I can feel great tomorrow.
[1467] So I just went ahead and went.
[1468] Was your stomach rumbling the whole deal?
[1469] No, not the whole thing.
[1470] I kind of just picked up a cough and just felt weak and worn down kind of thing.
[1471] Yeah, man. That makes you appreciate feeling healthy, doesn't it?
[1472] Like, when you're, are you feeling a little shitty right now, right?
[1473] Yeah, for sure.
[1474] Not 100%.
[1475] But you know that feeling where you're like, man, when I get healthy, I'm drinking fucking vegetable juice every day.
[1476] I'm not fucking around anymore.
[1477] I'm limiting myself to one glass of wine.
[1478] No sugar.
[1479] No this, know that.
[1480] I'm going to take my probiotics.
[1481] I'm doing yoga twice a week.
[1482] You start thinking of all the different ways you can keep yourself healthy.
[1483] And being in Vegas isn't the best place to think about that, too.
[1484] It's the worst.
[1485] It's the worst for your soul, too.
[1486] Like your soul's tugged at the gambling, come, take a chance, Jimmy.
[1487] I wonder what they'll do there is, because smoking is, smoking weed passed, right?
[1488] So how do you think they might handle that there in the future?
[1489] Well, they're going to have to handle the extreme paranoia of a bunch of stoners going in.
[1490] They're like, dude, I don't want to lose all my money.
[1491] They're going to go into those casinos, and they're going to, Well, I think if I was running a casino, I would try to figure out a way to capitalize on the stoners.
[1492] The big money that they make, apparently, is those fucking huge disco places, like Hakasan, where they get those DJs to come in.
[1493] Somebody was telling us, who the fuck was telling us about this, how much they get paid?
[1494] Is it Russell?
[1495] Was it Russell?
[1496] It might have been Russell the other night because, you know, Russell hates those electronic DJs because he's into, like, old school hip -hop DJ, and he is a DJ.
[1497] But when you hear how much money people pay to get into those things, like some dudes are paying like $500 each to get into those things.
[1498] More than that?
[1499] More than that?
[1500] How much more than that?
[1501] For like a table?
[1502] Oh, if you want a table.
[1503] But that's something.
[1504] You've still got to buy the bottle for a couple thousand and then pay per head to get in.
[1505] And girls get in for free, but guys definitely don't.
[1506] Well, they were saying at a certain point in time, even girls had to pay $150 bucks.
[1507] If you go late, probably, yeah.
[1508] That's crazy money.
[1509] I mean, that is just swarming money.
[1510] And then there's all the alcohol money on top of that.
[1511] Those are probably the biggest generators of income other than crazy gambling guys that just come in and blow their whole wad.
[1512] It's $100 to buy a ticket right now for this weekend.
[1513] That's pretty ahead, though.
[1514] That's ahead of time.
[1515] 100 bucks.
[1516] But they have open container laws.
[1517] You're allowed to walk around all over Vegas drinking.
[1518] You can buy it anywhere you want.
[1519] You can walk around and drink right in front of a cop.
[1520] Well, here's an interesting thing, too.
[1521] It's sort of an unspoken thing.
[1522] But those Hakasan places, all those places, there's booze flowing, for sure.
[1523] But there's also pills.
[1524] A lot of those people are on MDMA.
[1525] How many of those people?
[1526] What percentage?
[1527] Like, if you could light people up, if a little thought light bulb popped up on their head when you looked down in the dance for it, all the different people that are on MDMA, What is it, like 30 % if you had a guess?
[1528] Man. 30 % is being very reasonable.
[1529] I was going to go with at least 50, but I feel like that's even low.
[1530] Yeah.
[1531] It literally might be like 60 % of the people are on ecstasy.
[1532] It's like, do you roll?
[1533] Are you rolling?
[1534] No, I don't roll.
[1535] Whoa.
[1536] Why are you here?
[1537] So it's, if you're a casino, okay?
[1538] and you know that all these people are on ecstasy.
[1539] You start counting all that.
[1540] You start counting.
[1541] We're missing out on $150 ,000 a night in ecstasy sales.
[1542] Who's selling the ecstasy?
[1543] Who's the guy?
[1544] Where's all that coming from?
[1545] How's it getting in?
[1546] Who's aware of this?
[1547] Do they have to know?
[1548] Do they have to know or does it all come from outside?
[1549] Maybe it's all completely detached.
[1550] Maybe they don't want to know.
[1551] Maybe they know that they need the ecstasy in order to keep the business running.
[1552] Because, like, I don't know.
[1553] See, here's the thing.
[1554] These rooms where people just get together and dance with a guy on a turntable that's just sort of pressing play and all's electronic music and lights, this is a recent human phenomenon.
[1555] This didn't exist.
[1556] 30, 40 years ago, people would, it was Saturday Night Fever.
[1557] Staying alive, staying alive.
[1558] I mean, they had disco balls.
[1559] That was like the best light show you got.
[1560] oh my god the light goes off the ball it's crazy now they have laser shows the music is insane you know confetti's getting shot through the air these people have stage shows the the strobes like look at this where's this i don't just look i don't know random vegas party dude this is insane i mean just a visual splendor of it all the the LED show or lcd well actually LED right light emitting diode displays it's crazy I mean, it's beautiful to look at, and all these people have glow sticks.
[1561] Like, that, when you see glow sticks, those people are on ecstasy.
[1562] Those people are fucked up.
[1563] A lot of them.
[1564] Like, a good percentage.
[1565] Like, look at the size of that place.
[1566] That's the big concert they do in the summer called Electronic Daisy Carnival.
[1567] Jesus Christ.
[1568] But this is also in the middle of the summer when it's, I don't know, 150 degrees out there.
[1569] How many people are just dropping dead?
[1570] Sweating their dicks off.
[1571] They just cart them off and throw them in a hole in the desert.
[1572] But this whole wall is like a big LED show.
[1573] Wow.
[1574] So like I don't know what you're enjoying on there if you're not on MDMA or doing all.
[1575] Yeah, you'd still enjoy it.
[1576] We would, if we were high, we would enjoy the shit out of that.
[1577] You go and smoke a bunch of weed and go and stand there?
[1578] Do you think people would pay the same prices they'd pay for alcohol?
[1579] They'd pay those for weed if they could smoke them in there.
[1580] The problem with smoking it in there is assholes would light people on fire.
[1581] you know they're i don't know if they would do it at this place rarely would you find you can even in a group full of peace -minded hippies you're gonna find one or two dick wads that wants to light someone's hair on fire you know like dropping ashes on their hair or something like that so you can't really do it in that kind of environment well when you're when people are closed in together like smoking's fucking dangerous not that dangerous you know you're like you're thinking about burns to your face or i mean haven't you been burned by people yeah yeah we all have like accidentally their cherry drops on you and you're like what the fuck in like your hands on fire you don't know why it's because some drunk is hovering over you with their cigarette while they're talking and it just drops on you that happens i mean that's a minor thing i mean anytime you get a giant group of people together like that though you run risks if they could give away pot see the problem was selling it even if you're selling it is you're going to be responsible for all these people having heart attacks if you give them edibles like give them that goddamn spray that Joey Diaz just pumps in his mouth like it's nothing.
[1582] This stuff is so powerful.
[1583] It's so powerful.
[1584] Like, it's psychedelic.
[1585] It's very much like acid in a lot of ways.
[1586] When you get a high dose of the THC sprays, and so if you were doing this experience on that, I mean, if you could keep it together, it'd be wonderful.
[1587] But a lot of people are going to get super paranoid and freak out and have panic attacks.
[1588] So you're not going to want to sell them edibles.
[1589] It's like, it's too strong for most folks.
[1590] you know especially people that don't regularly dabble in it they won't know how much to take it's not like booze like if someone gives you a shot you take a shot you're like holy shit like you feel it pretty quick right someone gives you a couple shots you're like oh geez i got to stop i got to settle down or you go crazy but you know what a shot does like a couple sprays of this who the fuck knows what's going to happen you don't know you're taking a chance hey eat this cookie okay you don't know you're taking a chance a cookie might be like a shot or it might be like a whole bottle of vodka.
[1591] You know, it might be so much of a hit that you're paralyzed and you just want to lay in a fetal position on the ground.
[1592] So anytime you get a giant group of people like this, alcohol is like the safest bet if you want to sell it to them.
[1593] Everybody knows how to deal with alcohol.
[1594] Whether they deal with it poorly or not, you kind of know the numbers, you know?
[1595] Oh, I had five beers.
[1596] Dude, don't drive.
[1597] You're fucked up, you know?
[1598] Oh, I had one shot.
[1599] Well, you're on 350 pounds.
[1600] You probably barely feel it.
[1601] You know what I mean?
[1602] Like we all know what the tolerances are It's pretty It's pretty universally acknowledged I'd love that a place like this exist though man That these kids can get together And just go fucking bananas Because you can make some life decisions In these kind of rooms You can decide where you're gonna How are you going to live your life For real Because if you work every day Like Joe Smith on that fucking construction site And you show up even with your gold WBC belt And every day is hammering nails And picking up wood and thinking of the time you have off, sometimes you can go to a place like this and you just experience joy and laughter and fun and partying and you start to think about your job job, your real job, and you start to dread it.
[1603] You start to really dread it.
[1604] You start to really get sick.
[1605] And you start to think about all these people that are putting on these electronic carnivals.
[1606] Why can't I do that?
[1607] Or you think about something else you do.
[1608] I got to make a living making furniture.
[1609] I love making furniture.
[1610] I fucking love designing it.
[1611] I've got to figure out a way to open up a shop.
[1612] And then maybe something like this, just these moments when you're away from the grind and you're just in this fantasy land.
[1613] And you're hearing, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
[1614] And everyone's on ecstasy, and people are walking by touching everybody's chest, and everybody's laughing.
[1615] And you just realize, like, this is all temporary.
[1616] This whole experience is temporary.
[1617] And I'm wasting so much of my temporary time doing bullshit that I don't want to do and everybody tells you what I want you to take over the family plumbing business I don't want to plum I don't want to clean out anybody's broken shitter I want to make those LED lights that turn into floating mushrooms I want to make those somebody has to make that that's a job I have to figure out how to get that job that would be the shit I mean all these people that we have to rely on that we keep that you know go to CES every year all those people that you have to rely on like all those people pretty much had to take a chance.
[1618] All of them.
[1619] Pretty much everybody that's doing any of those things where they're putting out these new technologies and showing all this new inventions.
[1620] All of them had to be like disenfranchised or disenchanted with something and just, I've got to take a chance.
[1621] This is what I want to do and then this is what I'm going to pursue.
[1622] What else did you find there?
[1623] Anything else?
[1624] Because we've got to wrap this up soon, I think that was honestly, I didn't see tons of stuff that was blowing my mind this year.
[1625] I saw a couple cool things.
[1626] What was the phone?
[1627] Oh, the phone, yeah.
[1628] So the interesting thing about it, I'll try to, I even had a little bit of my video.
[1629] Who made it?
[1630] Huawei.
[1631] Hawaii?
[1632] Yeah.
[1633] What's Huawei?
[1634] What's, uh, is it Android phone?
[1635] No, yeah, it does run an Android thing.
[1636] That's it right there?
[1637] Yeah.
[1638] Whyway.
[1639] Who makes Huawei?
[1640] That's the company.
[1641] The phone was called like a mate, mate nine, I think.
[1642] It's the model of their phone.
[1643] I was asking this guy a question about it because it's, what it does is it has a really good lens on it or two lenses actually and so it's doing this thing called aperture and I forget what it was actually calling it so I'm hitting this button here and trying to see what it was going on so I was trying to figure out if it's actually doing lens blur which is what a lot of people are always after when they're taking pictures they want a really good blur makes your photo look good which is what that portrait mode and the new iPhone is kind of all about right so it keeps the foreground in focus and the background becomes blurry like a real camera So I was just asking if it was actually doing it or if it was simulating it using software.
[1644] And what do you say?
[1645] I'm pretty sure he was telling me that it was simulating using software.
[1646] That's why he was hitting that button.
[1647] That's why I kept putting my hand in front of it to kind of like see what was going on.
[1648] So the cool thing about the iPhone is it uses hardware doing that, right?
[1649] Yeah, it's using the two cases.
[1650] As far as I know.
[1651] And then again, it could be doing some other stuff.
[1652] It's not the same as me grabbing my DSLR camera and having a really good lens and finding the focus point and all that.
[1653] It's not the exact same as that.
[1654] So if you did that with a camera, you'd be able to tell the difference in the quality of the image?
[1655] That's sort of what I was just going on.
[1656] I kind of should, I would be able to tell.
[1657] I feel like just by looking at it if it's real or not, it didn't look real to me. It could have just been a trick, and I might not have been, I might have just been looking at something I didn't think I was seeing.
[1658] What are these kids playing here?
[1659] What's this 3D game?
[1660] This is the ESports.
[1661] So this is the Intel booth.
[1662] They're doing a little bit of, this is what an e -sports game situation might look like in the future, because this is going like there's a TBS is broadcasting a lot of e -sports or some other companies investing a lot in it how come they don't play those games on ergonomic chairs like these are these are these arego depot chairs those are ergonomic sort of they're like race car chairs right but race car chairs you sit back see when you play in a game you lean forward just like you use a computer some people do most people obviously are leaning forward they also have extra pads in them so you can kind of like have your back in certain spots but what's going on here is on this screen above them this is their gameplay is being rendered above their head so that you can be viewing this in 3D space so if you had a VR headset on two you'll be viewing these situations all differently in the future it's kind of just like a concept I'm pretty sure they were showing dude these chairs we use are so good I look at everybody sitting in other chairs I'm like you poor bitch these ergonomic capisco chairs um do those still have haptic feedback or sound to come out of them that no those chairs don't really are anything they're still doing that window thing huh when they have the window on the side of the computer we look in that one I was trying to show here it has some e -ink display going on which you can't you can see it moving a little bit oh whoa oh that's dope so it just looks cool yeah it just looks cool yeah well they've by having all these different companies making PCs they open themselves up to so much weird innovation this is one real cool thing and again this is one of those things I'm not sure if this is real or not this is called the tiny most camera what they're saying this camera does it's made specifically for shooting outdoor astronomy photos it's got google the google star maps built into it and the reason i don't i'm not sure on this is because i've tried personally to take photos of stars and the moon and different things in the sky at night it's a really hard to do and like for one if you're trying to take a picture of what they have down here which would be like the galaxy where you can see the different gases and whatnot.
[1663] You have to leave your aperture open for a long time, a couple seconds, and let the light get in there.
[1664] Opposite of that, if you're trying to take a picture of the moon and get detailed picture of the moon, you've got to go really quick because there's so much light coming off of it, you have to get, it's just a snap second.
[1665] Right.
[1666] You have to have a really good lens and whatnot.
[1667] This camera is good for both, and it's about the same size as a point and shoot camera.
[1668] And it says that they're allowing you to take all the, and I don't know exactly how, because I couldn't take this outside myself and play with it.
[1669] What do they say when you asked him describe how it works i i didn't ask i heard this guy giving a description to somebody else they didn't really give a great this is all the data and this is how everything is uh this is how it actually works they have some uh they have a software which said it's like a patent pending on some noise reduction um filters which it would be reducing noise on your photo and sort of post after the fact which i don't know if that's if it's tricking it or if it's just removing some of the data from your picture to make it look like a better picture but it was being advertised on lots of different outlets as this is maybe they actually got hands -on and I didn't and they got to see that it was proven so well it'd be really interesting if it was true if you could just point a camera up and take a picture of the galaxy that would be the shit um but you would have to have no light pollution correct I mean it's not no way it would see through the light you'd have to go somewhere right oh my god what is this thing so this is another like VR this guy's flying around in this in space this is insane you we're looking at this guy leaning full forward he's got his forearms and his hands connected to these two handles in the front and in the back his feet are strapped into this thing so he's kind of planking the whole time it doesn't look like there's anything on his stomach is that correct or is there something on his stomach i don't think so so that's that's hard to do man it doesn't look it didn't look like the most comfortable thing yeah see he's leaning on his forearms and he's he's steering himself with his own body weight well that would be a fucking vicious workout man but when you're flying i don't think you'd be laying on something really either unless you were flying on like a carpet or you know what i mean well you're still like it's it's where his body's not subject to gravity but his stomach is his body's being pulled down so you'd have to like really develop your i bet a lot of people are going to hurt their back on that because like you're going to do it and you're going to strap yourself into that thing and you're going to get to a point where you're too exhausted to keep planking what it says up here in the corner underneath their little banner it says it's good for exercise It's strengthening your core and your upper body and all that.
[1670] Oh, dude, people are going to be bulletproof if they keep doing that.
[1671] Like, if that's going to be one of those dance dance -tans revolution type things where people start doing it and they get in shape because of it.
[1672] Because, like, this looks really hard to do.
[1673] Do you remember that thing that we had on the podcast that we reviewed that frog?
[1674] You remember the frog?
[1675] Brent, I believe Shob was telling us about it.
[1676] But it's a weight thing that you do where you move your body forward and backwards.
[1677] Yes.
[1678] It's like, do you know what I'm talking about?
[1679] Yeah.
[1680] You actually move forward and backward with it.
[1681] I think it's called the frog.
[1682] But it looks remarkably similar to that thing.
[1683] So imagine if you have a game where you put virtual reality headsets on and you do that frog workout thing, you can't find it?
[1684] You can't find it?
[1685] Give it a try.
[1686] I typed on frog and it's just giving me pictures of frogs lifting weights and stuff.
[1687] What about frog weightlifting equipment?
[1688] The frog.
[1689] The bullfrog?
[1690] No. Is that it?
[1691] What it is, folks, is you know that the way a frog looks when it's moving across water, when it has those kicks with its back legs and its four legs, and they come together and then they go apart.
[1692] Frog Fitness, there it is.
[1693] And this thing is this weird, it's got wheels in the front and wheels on the back, and you connect your feet to the base of it.
[1694] and your upper body to the front of it, scoge your head so we can see these guys doing this.
[1695] Hey, look, I got a football.
[1696] But it's a serious piece of workout.
[1697] See, here you see this guy moving with this thing back and forth and back and forth.
[1698] And I think you can change the resistance in those cables.
[1699] You can make it more difficult to do.
[1700] And apparently it gets you in sick shape.
[1701] I've heard a lot of people talking about this thing saying it's a tremendous piece of strength of conditioning equipment should probably open yeah it's one 30 all right we'll bring in hunter moths that'll be a podcast too but imagine doing this with like handles virtual reality and you're doing a game I mean these guys are crawling along with this thing imagine if you're doing this but you think you're flying in a spaceship you know you're shooting shit we just need to get virtual reality into bigger spaces so we can be moving around and be playing with each other I think that's a big big gap we need still two to be fixed yeah football fields yeah virtual reality on football fields we also don't want to be we need to not like if we both have on headsets i don't want to bump into you yes that's big i got to figure that yeah next step too interesting stuff young jamie all right we'll be right back with hunter mott's
