for your When I do a live stream, it's probably

7
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,920
you know, it'll probably be this is probably more suitable.

8
00:00:48,719 --> 00:00:57,600
I got some books I wanted to share with you. Yeah,

9
00:00:57,759 --> 00:01:14,640
father Santorp, hold on, let me let me get some books.

Dystopian Holiday. Okay, there we go. All right, Yeah, Happy Easter.

11
00:01:25,599 --> 00:01:31,719

I got so much stuff to do about the heaven Andewism,

13
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,799
fall down, break my neck. I'm going to Atlanta tomorrow.

14
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,680
I'm going to Georgia. I'll be in Georgia Alabama area.

15
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,000
I'm finally gonna see some Northeast Alabama's biodiversity. I'll be

16
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,200
wearing a priest custome. You know, it gets you out

17
00:01:48,239 --> 00:01:52,239
of traffic tickets, It gets you know, both the cops

18
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:57,000
and and you know the LINKU was to leave you alone.

19
00:01:57,079 --> 00:01:58,640
I was in New Orleans and we were filming to

20
00:01:58,719 --> 00:02:01,439
kill your lawn. We're in a priest costume. Once it

21
00:02:01,519 --> 00:02:03,840
was their Marti grut thing. Some kid hit me in

22
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,760
the head with a ball they were throwing in the street,

23
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:10,360
and he looked so apologetic afterwards, whereas if I wouldn't

24
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,199
have been wearing this, he probably will just you know,

25
00:02:12,199 --> 00:02:15,800
told me to go fuck myself or something. So anyway,

26
00:02:16,599 --> 00:02:19,319
oh yeah, it's four twenty two for all the dopers.

27
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,000
I'm not a doper, but uh, I encourage it. You know,

28
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,000
it's beats booze. Can't fucking stand alcohol. So what do

29
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,719
you mean do We're gonna do a quick live stream.

30
00:02:29,719 --> 00:02:32,039
We're gonna talk about some books, some nice books that

31
00:02:32,159 --> 00:02:38,000
we're gonna go. Maybe we'll talk about uh, I don't

32
00:02:38,039 --> 00:02:39,680
know what else. I don't know. I'm out of shit,

33
00:02:39,879 --> 00:02:41,560
you know, I got too much. I got I get

34
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,159
what's what happened, and I get too much shit to

35
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,400
do and then I don't do anything. I just want

36
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,199
to lay down, you know, in the middle of the road.

37
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,400
But we'll, uh, we could talk, you know, we'll see

38
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,919
what uh what's going on with everybody out there? Growing

39
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:02,199
bockchoy In response to the Chinese thing that's good you

40
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:07,439
know that's really good. We're we're gonna not gonna ease

41
00:03:07,479 --> 00:03:09,479
the dystopia. Somebody got mad at me for saying the

42
00:03:09,479 --> 00:03:13,639
word retard, which you would never actually say to someone

43
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:18,400
who's mentally disabled. Retard is only it's reserved for people

44
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,080
who are acting like, you know, retarded. You treat the

45
00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:27,960
mentally disabled the utmost care, respect and compassion. But you know,

46
00:03:28,039 --> 00:03:30,240
everyone's got their fight. They gotta get they gotta get

47
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:36,759
mad about something. So uh okay, well the fuck I've got,

48
00:03:36,919 --> 00:03:39,240
you know, nineteen videos to edit. Still, I don't want

49
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,560
to do it. I got doing the copy edits. I

50
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,520
gotta get the version of my book. Concrete bought me

51
00:03:45,599 --> 00:03:50,520
back to the copy editor by tuesday. You know, Al see,

52
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,599
Al's like the see I'm the Italian cat. Look, priest,

53
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,960
Ail's the Irish. Can't look priest. You know this fucking thing.

54
00:03:59,319 --> 00:04:01,199
He was laughing his ass off when I had this out.

55
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,919
He said, it looks too real. It's too real, it's

56
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,719
fucking too good. You know, I'm gonna start I should

57
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,240
seriously wear that. You can get away with so much,

58
00:04:10,719 --> 00:04:16,160
so much, right, do you think a cop would if

59
00:04:16,199 --> 00:04:19,439
a cop saw me in this? There's no way he

60
00:04:19,439 --> 00:04:24,199
would write me any kind of fucking ticket, right anyway,

61
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,639
maybe I could read something from this book, you know,

62
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,120
I was. I don't know how I mentally diarrheaed this

63
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,839
book out, but I was going through it yesterday after

64
00:04:34,879 --> 00:04:37,360
the copy had I got it back to me and

65
00:04:37,439 --> 00:04:43,040
it's actually pretty good. That's pretty nice. It's uh, you know,

66
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,120
I forgot I wrote this because I can't remember what

67
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:46,920
I had for breakfast three days ago. I just fucking

68
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,279
you know, I just bark this shit out and then

69
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,720
people tell me stuff I did, stuff I said, you know,

70
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,639
I can't remember that stuff. You know. Okay, books, we

71
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,680
want to talk about Fifth Kingdom. I talked about this

72
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,920
in a podcast. Excellent book on fungi fungi and it

73
00:05:03,959 --> 00:05:06,360
gets into it too. It's not about foraging or edible

74
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,680
It's not that I necessarily not those. It's about the

75
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,759
more in a science, you know, how to fun I bang,

76
00:05:12,199 --> 00:05:17,480
good shit, cool stuff to think about. God damn, this

77
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,000
thing is blowing my mind. By Bryce Kendrick, The Fifth Kingdom.

78
00:05:23,079 --> 00:05:26,560
There was something especially that they got me going, got

79
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,439
me hacked. Oh there's even a chapter on Li Likens.

80
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,759
That's a dope book. Woody Plants of Northwest South America

81
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,079
is a dope book because it's a flora, but it's

82
00:05:36,079 --> 00:05:38,720
written by an actual field botanist. So instead of, you know,

83
00:05:39,759 --> 00:05:44,879
instead of being like a cold, hard, dry flora, it's uh,

84
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,920
you know with the keys that kind of suck and

85
00:05:46,959 --> 00:05:49,639
the key breaks that suck. It's more in depth and

86
00:05:49,759 --> 00:05:52,680
it's got It's like something I would write like just

87
00:05:52,759 --> 00:05:54,639
a and I've been meaning to do something like that

88
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,720
for Texas, where you just explain the difference between this

89
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,800
and you know that, you explain the general instead of

90
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:06,680
looking for these very subtle, often not in seasoned, morphological

91
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,319
traits about a plant, you actually talk about the gestalt,

92
00:06:09,399 --> 00:06:11,079
you know, where it grows, how it feels that kind

93
00:06:11,079 --> 00:06:13,600
of shit, really good stuff and it look at this.

94
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,600
They got a chapter on a fucking neotropical Eric Casey

95
00:06:18,079 --> 00:06:20,240
and the differences between all the genera, and I will

96
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,079
tell you they are a clusterfuck. I'm gonna try to

97
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,040
do a post about them on the intergram the inter

98
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:31,160
sham serato stemsteria differences and where the flowers come out

99
00:06:31,199 --> 00:06:35,920
accillaria at the discilline. What but these fucking neotropical blueberries

100
00:06:35,959 --> 00:06:39,360
blew my mind man, because they're they're epiphytes, and they

101
00:06:39,399 --> 00:06:43,439
grow in these incredible forests, generally high elevations. They're neotropical,

102
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,319
not in the sense of hot and humid, only in

103
00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:48,319
the sense that they occur at lott latitudes. But they've

104
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,360
got a lot of them form these woody ligno tubers.

105
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,199
So you'll see this thing that's anchored to it, like

106
00:06:54,399 --> 00:06:57,360
moss bed on a tree, and then it like hooks

107
00:06:57,399 --> 00:07:00,240
down and it's got this big woody knob. It's the

108
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,240
woody ligno tuber. It's like a storage mechanism, you know.

109
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,759
It's like having a little storage container in a back

110
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:07,439
you know, where you put all your tools and shit,

111
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,720
your tools, your guns, your dildos and uh and then

112
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,240
you know, but it's an epiphyte. So to get around

113
00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:15,920
the fact that it's got this dry season and it's

114
00:07:15,959 --> 00:07:17,759
not going on any fucking soil, it's got this big

115
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,079
woody ligno tuber. So fucking cool to see. And a

116
00:07:22,079 --> 00:07:23,560
lot of them do that, and then a lot of

117
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,959
other ones just grow and they've all produced these delicious

118
00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:29,800
edible fruits. I mean, they're truly neotropical blueberries. You know,

119
00:07:29,839 --> 00:07:31,680
I could take this thing off that this is vibing you,

120
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,120
some of you guys out you know, if you got

121
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,360
like trauma, Catholic trauma, a lot of us have it.

122
00:07:35,959 --> 00:07:38,639
My mom used to take me to the fucking Catholic church.

123
00:07:39,439 --> 00:07:41,560
You know. It was a big it was a big church,

124
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,560
and I would get so bored and I would, but

125
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,480
I liked watching a priest when he would, you know,

126
00:07:46,519 --> 00:07:48,120
hold up the wine and shit, because you could tell

127
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,079
he was already hammered. He'd hold up a little chalice

128
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,600
and eat the bread, you know, you know, you hold

129
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,680
the chalice up and you could just see this big

130
00:07:54,759 --> 00:07:57,399
dumb grin, and you go, heck, guy's fucking hammered already.

131
00:07:57,439 --> 00:08:00,399
Holy shit. He was drinking the wine and the rum,

132
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,879
you know, and then he's probably spilled some them on

133
00:08:03,959 --> 00:08:05,920
his little robe and he had to go change, you know,

134
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,439
through a cursing fit, you know, like Tony soprano and

135
00:08:09,439 --> 00:08:11,600
then had a cursing fit, had to go back change

136
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,560
the rope because he got a big port wine stain

137
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,560
on it. And you know what I mean, Uh, what

138
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,879
the fuck was I talking about? Oh yeah, so neotropical blueberries.

139
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:24,480
I can't remember, is that what I was saying about

140
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,199
I'm all over the place just like a pink pok bowl.

141
00:08:27,319 --> 00:08:32,279
Try to listen to the podcast. It's even worse. But uh,

142
00:08:33,399 --> 00:08:35,039
but yeah, that was. I mean, I've got so much

143
00:08:35,039 --> 00:08:37,960
shit to process. I've got herbarium specimens. Look at this

144
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,679
stuff I got. Oh, this is all our barium specimens here,

145
00:08:41,639 --> 00:08:47,200
ah see, put them in like that, and those these

146
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:51,960
are the ones I've processed. Ship I've written labels up

147
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,960
for when I keep them. You don't need actual plant

148
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,840
press for herbarium specimens, though it helps you. Just you

149
00:09:01,919 --> 00:09:04,000
get one of these little drawing pads and then I

150
00:09:04,039 --> 00:09:10,759
hold it together with these these straps. You know. I

151
00:09:10,799 --> 00:09:13,159
think these straps were originally made for some kind of

152
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,840
derange sex sling. But you know I'm not into that stuff,

153
00:09:15,919 --> 00:09:22,440
so so I just, oh, god, okay. Anyway, you're like

154
00:09:22,519 --> 00:09:24,759
pee Wee Herman, you know, and the old you ever

155
00:09:24,799 --> 00:09:27,960
watched the old pee Wee shows, when he's just he's

156
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,919
like pulling all this stuff out of a bag. He's

157
00:09:29,919 --> 00:09:33,080
got a bag of gigs. My daughter and I were

158
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,720
watching that. He loves pee Wee. Thank god. You know,

159
00:09:35,799 --> 00:09:38,840
it's a subtle creative messaging in that show. I think

160
00:09:38,879 --> 00:09:40,879
it affected all of us who grew up in that time.

161
00:09:40,919 --> 00:09:45,759
It was a very important show and cultural institution. They

162
00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:51,080
really affected me. They really affected me as a young youngster. Okay,

163
00:09:51,159 --> 00:09:55,120
let's see when else. I saw another interesting plant in

164
00:09:55,159 --> 00:10:00,320
other news po Maria Ostro, Texana. Super fucking rare. It's

165
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,960
a pee that looks like an orchid right there. And

166
00:10:07,399 --> 00:10:12,519
I just took that using Matt's car instead of Matt's

167
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,279
car as a background. You just gotta get that. To

168
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,879
get that black background, you just need a much darker

169
00:10:17,759 --> 00:10:21,320
uh background that's generally farther away from the lens than

170
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,919
the subject. But it's it's This plant is incredible. I've

171
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,159
been looking for it for a while, never thought I'd

172
00:10:27,159 --> 00:10:29,799
actually come across it, but look at it. Very bizarre

173
00:10:30,519 --> 00:10:36,000
floral morphology with those those stamens that come down probably

174
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,320
to dust, some fucking Xylocopis abdomen with pollen, and the

175
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,639
whole thing's covered in glands. It's in the say cell

176
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:47,679
penioid subfamily at a pea family, and so uh and

177
00:10:47,759 --> 00:10:49,120
a lot quite a lot of them do that. I

178
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:54,320
think Hoffman Seggy is a say cell penioid too. Erazorisia

179
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,600
I think that's a say cel penioid, that's a cool

180
00:10:56,879 --> 00:11:01,200
say sell penioid, desert safe cell penioids. Look at a glance.

181
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:09,200
Huh you prick see that? God, the Internet's a toilet.

182
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,960
Did you know that? Did you know what? The Internet's

183
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:15,519
a toilet for every rotten sphincter to comment horrible shit,

184
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,159
not horrible. Just you know, there's a lot of unhappy

185
00:11:19,159 --> 00:11:21,799
people because we're living in dystopia, and you know, the

186
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,879
middle class is basically gone and the oligarchs are fucking everybody.

187
00:11:24,919 --> 00:11:26,919
So a lot of people are unhappy and they they

188
00:11:27,039 --> 00:11:29,399
vent it. I can't really blame them. They vent it

189
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,240
by going online and you know, while I taking a ship,

190
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:37,919
leaving some mean comment, then YouTube. So anyway, picture book

191
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,679
of Unusual Flowers, I'm working on it. Uh but uh

192
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:47,840
the other book meanwhile on abrams Press has been kind

193
00:11:47,879 --> 00:11:52,279
of abandoned, which is all photos their designer. I sent

194
00:11:52,399 --> 00:11:56,600
some sample images and write ups to their designer to

195
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,159
look at and he got back. He sent that back.

196
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,200
It looked like a fucking health insurance brought sure. I said,

197
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,159
I'm not doing this stuff. I'm gonna do I'm gonna

198
00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:07,639
get the InDesign subscription and do it myself, which I did,

199
00:12:07,639 --> 00:12:10,080
but I just haven't gotten around to it. A kind

200
00:12:10,159 --> 00:12:13,720
lady wrote me and said she would help me. She uh,

201
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:15,960
she's in Minnesota and does it for a living. But

202
00:12:16,039 --> 00:12:17,840
I have not. I just haven't had the time. I

203
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,480
don't have time to do anything. All I want to

204
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,639
do is ride my bike with my kid. I got

205
00:12:21,639 --> 00:12:23,799
this tandem bike. It's a hookup, so she could sit

206
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,000
on the back and put a little helmet on her

207
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,919
and you go ride your bike around. That's a nice time,

208
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,360
you know. And then if you're smoking a stogy too,

209
00:12:33,399 --> 00:12:35,399
you're like five feet above her because it's a cannem

210
00:12:35,399 --> 00:12:37,679
so you're not gonna get blown smoking her face. So

211
00:12:37,919 --> 00:12:40,720
you drive around, You ride around smoking a stogy, drinking

212
00:12:40,759 --> 00:12:44,919
an Na beer. You know, that's a nice time. That's

213
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:49,879
all I want to do. Yeah, you're If you're unhappy

214
00:12:49,879 --> 00:12:52,600
with things, just dive into, you know, the living world.

215
00:12:52,600 --> 00:13:00,360
Ignore the fucking garbage around you, the human garbage. Okay, wait,

216
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,480
pea flower, nice? What the fuck I had? You know?

217
00:13:02,519 --> 00:13:07,120
I hit a I had a point here. Oh, if

218
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,480
you want to see the cover of a book, Fucking

219
00:13:10,519 --> 00:13:14,679
square Space is fucking me again. I hate them. I

220
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,399
hate them so much. Did you know that? Did you

221
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,720
know that I hate Square Space? Okay, let me go

222
00:13:21,759 --> 00:13:25,440
through these nine thousand unread emails in my email inbox

223
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,120
and show you to cover for Concrete Botany, which I

224
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,120
think came out pretty good. They hired an illustrator, even

225
00:13:33,159 --> 00:13:35,519
though I illustrate because I don't have the fucking time

226
00:13:35,519 --> 00:13:38,879
to do it. The illustrator they're hired isn't isn't too bad?

227
00:13:39,519 --> 00:13:42,240
Not you know, there's look there you go, there's the

228
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:46,600
kind that'll be and Barnes and Noble so you can

229
00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:51,600
shoplift it. Just kidding, I'm just kidding. That'll be on Amazon,

230
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,360
so you can you can you can order it on

231
00:13:54,399 --> 00:13:58,200
Scamazon and say the package didn't arrive. Just kidding, just kidding,

232
00:13:59,159 --> 00:14:06,039
I'm really just kidding. We don't endorse crime here. Uh yeah,

233
00:14:06,279 --> 00:14:08,879
so I don't know that'll be fun. I need to

234
00:14:08,879 --> 00:14:11,519
find someone who's competent and knows knows a thing or

235
00:14:11,519 --> 00:14:13,919
two about plants to do the design or help me

236
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,480
with the design layout for the other book, you know,

237
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,799
because this is what I got. The ship I'm doing

238
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:23,200
for the other book is uh, I've got a very

239
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:29,080
specific ship, very specific way I want it done, you know,

240
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,360
for the illustrations, because you're trying to pack a bunch

241
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:36,279
of images. Where the fuck is this thing? Why is

242
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,440
it so turned up? Why is he so mad? I

243
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,360
don't understand why he's so mad? Poems me and Scott's

244
00:14:42,399 --> 00:14:44,559
own We're supposed to do a podcast on poems, but

245
00:14:45,519 --> 00:14:49,360
he flakes, so we got to reschedule. Let me see this.

246
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,960

249
00:15:04,159 --> 00:15:07,039
books on libsin. Let me see if I got this

250
00:15:07,159 --> 00:15:15,559

251
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,879

252
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:26,440
Making the dog's nervous? Get it here? Come on, noi

256
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,919
send it to here. Hold on, you know, I'm I'm sorry.

257
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,679
I'm making you guys wait. You know it's just not

258
00:15:45,919 --> 00:15:49,840
it's an example. What was it? I can't find the

259
00:15:49,919 --> 00:15:56,440
damn I'm so disorganized man, someone helped me. Someone helped me.

260
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,240
I really wanted to share this thing. Where the fuck

261
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:07,399
did this example go? Let's see, got nine thousand books?

262
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:15,480
Oh arach nightis just a total disaster documents. Where was

263
00:16:15,519 --> 00:16:19,720
this plan for Diltrician? Oh? There we go, Okay, let's see.

264
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,240
There we go drinking from the air. Oh wait here, well,

265
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:31,000
now it's launching in design. I'm all, I'm fucked. I'm

266
00:16:31,039 --> 00:16:34,240
all fucked up over here. Hold on, hang on, hang on,

267
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:41,480
hang on? Where's this thing? There we go? Okay, there

268
00:16:41,519 --> 00:16:45,679
we go? Nice? All right, Oh, it's trying to launch

269
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,480
in design. No, shut up, now you turn this off.

270
00:16:49,519 --> 00:16:51,639
I can't wait to be old and Italian. Fuck, I'm

271
00:16:51,679 --> 00:16:54,120
gonna be so good at it. Give me a second,

272
00:16:54,159 --> 00:16:58,000
hold on, prick, Okay, look here is where to go? Here?

273
00:16:58,039 --> 00:17:01,559
Look see this is what see this is the type

274
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,640
of design style I need. Can help me with this, right,

275
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,000
there's a couple of grammatical errors in the writing because

276
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,359
it hasn't been proof read, so you get the insets

277
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,240
and stuff. Now. I sent this same all the images

278
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,200
in the text to the guy who does a design

279
00:17:16,279 --> 00:17:20,119
for Abrams no offense, and it looks like a damn

280
00:17:20,599 --> 00:17:25,319
health insurance bro shirt. I said, what is this? Huh

281
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,000
look like a fucking design for Uber eats or something.

282
00:17:28,039 --> 00:17:30,200
I don't want that. I don't need that stuff. Oh shit,

283
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:36,240
just put this down wrong. Okay, anyway, tell mysela, tell

284
00:17:36,319 --> 00:17:43,960
myself how to do the end design. So uh anyway, anyway, Yeah,

285
00:17:44,039 --> 00:17:45,640
what the fuck you had the pigs? Yeah, we're gonna

286
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:51,880
get the pigs actually unpaid assistance. Yeah, maybe maybe you know,

287
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,640
I don't know. We'll figure out something now, technologies on

288
00:17:55,759 --> 00:18:03,440
my side. So uh, photos for the cover because I

289
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,519
don't know that for that cover they didn't want it. Oh,

290
00:18:05,559 --> 00:18:08,759
I should send this over there? Did you guys? What

291
00:18:08,759 --> 00:18:10,359
did you guys do for Easter? Did you have a

292
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:20,200
nice time for Easter? Over there? Let's see this. Yeah,

293
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,920
I gotta get on that. Damn that in design shit,

294
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,920
you know, it's like if you don't do it every day,

295
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,680
you forget what does what? Because it's in designs like

296
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:32,000
another like another language. So if you don't do it everything,

297
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,839
then you forget you get rusty fuck up. So there's

298
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:39,119
got to be more discipline. But I could probably get

299
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:40,759
this done. I mean, this didn't take me that long

300
00:18:40,799 --> 00:18:43,319
to do this. This is like a two page thing,

301
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,440
and it's gonna have like one hundred of these, probably

302
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,119
one hundred and twenty, one hundred and twenty plants from

303
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:54,920
all over the world. Brazil, South Africa, Australia, Tasmania, which

304
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:56,680
is Australia, but it's a little different. It's like a

305
00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:02,319
temper rainforest. New Zealand, those another temper rainforest. Mexico, Chile,

306
00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:06,400
parts of North America. Probably minimal North America stuff though,

307
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,119
because I'm trying to get further out there. Maybe a

308
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,400
little bit, you know, but I've got so many photos

309
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:17,839
to go through. Oh it's a cluster fuck though. Are

310
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:22,680
you hanging in there? Everybody hanging in there? I spring

311
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:30,880
equal Knox. Well, oh, somebody's in Salzburg. Are you filming

312
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:35,440
another commercial? That mosquito trap is fucking sick? What are

313
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,160
you talking about? This? Amazing? I just killed like sixty

314
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,880
more today. They honestly didn't pay me for that. They should,

315
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,519
but they didn't. I was just happy enough to get

316
00:19:44,519 --> 00:19:49,880
the tramp, yeh, to get the trap because I needed.

317
00:19:50,279 --> 00:19:52,480
I wish they would send me sweet scent packets though,

318
00:19:52,839 --> 00:20:00,359
because I don't want to buy them. Yeah, need a

319
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:07,960
damn job. Yeah, you do everybody does, bless my eggs.

320
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,440
Lobby's se free. Oh. I actually taught myself that on

321
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,599
the piano a little bit. Here's the thing you got

322
00:20:16,599 --> 00:20:20,920
people in Wales. How'd you get into Bodany. It'll be

323
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,480
in a book. Get the book when it comes out

324
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:27,480
of April too. That twenty twenty six. Like ten killer Oklahoma,

325
00:20:27,519 --> 00:20:30,759
Oklahoma's nice. Shout out to Lawden, Oklahoma. Shout out to

326
00:20:30,799 --> 00:20:35,359
the Wichita Range the limestones. Well, actually we're Titas granite,

327
00:20:35,799 --> 00:20:39,359
but there's some nice limestones in the on the east

328
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:43,319
side of Oklahoma. I want to go up there, you know,

329
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,519
just peck to peck the dogs and a kid just drive,

330
00:20:46,759 --> 00:20:49,799
just go. He just left. Well, he was really slamming

331
00:20:49,839 --> 00:20:53,000
those na's. He was slaying eight years so bridey. He

332
00:20:53,079 --> 00:20:56,039
was hitting those na's hard, like he like he was

333
00:20:56,079 --> 00:20:58,279
gonna feel like he was expecting to feel something for him.

334
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,160
A favorite this junk population of his species? Do I

335
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:06,119
have a favorite disjunk population of his speech? Yes, it'd

336
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:10,839
be Hissparo, Cyprus, Arizonica north of Deming, New Mexico, and

337
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:15,279
a Cook range. I met these old rednecks out there.

338
00:21:15,279 --> 00:21:18,119
They were nice, though they were nice. It was in

339
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:19,720
the middle of nowhere, and they were like, oh, we

340
00:21:19,799 --> 00:21:22,920
came to look at this man that apparently someone threw

341
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:29,880
some poor old chinamen down there, and ah, someone through

342
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,680
some poor old chinamen down there in the early twentieth century.

343
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,640
And then they shot on Texas for a while. They

344
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,720
went on like a rant about Texas, like there's no

345
00:21:39,759 --> 00:21:42,440
public land in Texas. These were like like died in

346
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,720
the wool, redneck. It was kind of funny. They were

347
00:21:44,839 --> 00:21:49,519
nice guys though, And then you go on this long

348
00:21:49,599 --> 00:21:53,200
hike up this fucking through a lot of cool flora too.

349
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:54,680
There's a lot of cool It's kind of like a

350
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,960
sky island, the Cook's Range in Deming, New Mexico, and

351
00:21:59,079 --> 00:22:01,599
there's a dis junk population growing on the north side

352
00:22:01,599 --> 00:22:04,359
of the Cook's Range up against the cliff, the north

353
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:10,240
facing cliff of Arizona, Cyprus, and they're they're like huge trees.

354
00:22:10,279 --> 00:22:12,599
It's it's really fucking cool. There's a couple up on

355
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,799
the cliff too, but there's tons of cool plants. There

356
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:18,839
a lot of cool native history there too. It was

357
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:26,200
all Apache and a lot of Apache history. I think

358
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,799
there was during some of the war the Indian Wars.

359
00:22:29,839 --> 00:22:31,200
There was a lot of a patch that was like

360
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,960
a big hideout, you know, as they thought the honky

361
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:39,559
Deaf cult it was coming west into their lands. A

362
00:22:39,559 --> 00:22:42,440
lot of cool limestone too, ever, finding like cryingoway fossils

363
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,000
and stuff. You gotta go, you know, you gotta go

364
00:22:44,039 --> 00:22:46,039
out there. New Mexico's got a lot of nice stuff.

365
00:22:46,079 --> 00:22:50,039
Me and Alan Rockefeller will be at the the Fungus

366
00:22:50,039 --> 00:22:54,880
Fair in Cloudcroft, New Mexico on July twenty ninth. And

367
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,920
then we were thinking about doing like a tour thing

368
00:22:58,039 --> 00:23:03,799
for Costa Rica, which he was. He invited me to

369
00:23:03,839 --> 00:23:05,680
do that one an Ecuador, and I was like, all right,

370
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,799
this is not really my thing. I don't do tours,

371
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,720
you know, but it could be cool. And I don't

372
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,000
really like having to interact with the public. But this

373
00:23:15,039 --> 00:23:17,519
would all be plant people and nerds and stuff anyway,

374
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,839
so it doesn't sound so bad. But he's offered to

375
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,359
pay for it. So him and Maddy sent me down

376
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,079
there and I said, wow, this is nice. It's just

377
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,319
something else. Everyone was really cool. It was just like

378
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:30,000
hanging out with a bunch of science nerds and biology

379
00:23:30,039 --> 00:23:35,680
nerds for ten days, you know who, And like there

380
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,359
were some hacker people in her two like these you know,

381
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,359
these tech guys do a lot of stuff, you know,

382
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,400
like hacker stuff. I said, wow, I don't know about

383
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:47,200
that stuff. And uh, just you know, going around the

384
00:23:47,279 --> 00:23:49,880
Upper Amazon for two weeks, it was ten days, it

385
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:55,920
was fucking nice. It was really cool. And so you know,

386
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,400
I think they paid like twenty five hundred bucks, but

387
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,279
you get all free meals and lodging and shit. It's

388
00:24:01,279 --> 00:24:03,880
a fucking that's the thing, right, that's the thing, Like

389
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,240
this is it's expensive. Shit, it's the bummer. You know.

390
00:24:08,599 --> 00:24:10,440
I wish we could just knock over a brakes truck

391
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,480
and just like you know, bring a bunch of people,

392
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,160
because there's the people who need it the most, probably

393
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:21,759
don't have money for it, but whatever. Anyway, but yeah,

394
00:24:21,799 --> 00:24:24,039
so we might do that. We've been Costa Rica, which

395
00:24:24,039 --> 00:24:27,759
again Costa Rica, I thought, this is like I've been

396
00:24:27,799 --> 00:24:31,799
around you know, I've heard a lot of lot of

397
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,400
hippie white girls, no offense, talk about how they just

398
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,359
went to Costa Rica and it was still amazing. And

399
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,200
so that was kind of the image I had that

400
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,839
I associated with Costa Rican and indeed that's there and

401
00:24:41,839 --> 00:24:47,480
it's real but no offense to any of them. But damn,

402
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,039
when I got there, I was like, man, it's so divert.

403
00:24:50,079 --> 00:24:54,799
The fucking dry forest. There's cacti, columnar cacti cool of

404
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,000
gaves all the cool dry forests stuff, which dry forests

405
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,160
aren't like deserts. Obviously they're get a lot of rain,

406
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,640
but then they've got a six month dry season. Then

407
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,039
there's the cloud forest, a bunch of cool oak species.

408
00:25:06,079 --> 00:25:10,359
You get the epiphetic blueberries. You get genera that you

409
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,880
more commonly see in the temperate latitudes like you'd see

410
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,079
in the fucking rocky mountains, but at much lower elevations.

411
00:25:17,079 --> 00:25:20,119
But they're going at nine thousand feet or ten thousand

412
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:24,640
feet in the Paramou or the sub Paramo. Really cool habitat.

413
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:30,359
And I met a lot of great people and stayed

414
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,920
a couple of days with my friend Harve Thomas, who, uh,

415
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,079
I guess he's from Arkansas. Like I saw, he's like

416
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,359
an old white guy from markets. No fence, no fence,

417
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,759
you gonna piss some people off. Not trying to all right,

418
00:25:44,279 --> 00:25:48,200
go clutching your fucking pearls yet, but uh, you see

419
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:49,839
all white guy from market, You're like, oh shit, I'm

420
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,839
gonna have to like tiptoe around it. That got it,

421
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:56,319
you know whatever. But he ended up being dope as

422
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,880
really fucking cool guy. Really, I mean he's loose man

423
00:26:00,599 --> 00:26:04,319
and uh And I guess he moved down there in

424
00:26:04,319 --> 00:26:06,279
like the sixties, Like he moved there in the sixties

425
00:26:06,279 --> 00:26:08,079
to get away from Vietnam because he knew it was

426
00:26:08,079 --> 00:26:12,279
a bullshit ass war people were getting, you know, totally exploited.

427
00:26:13,079 --> 00:26:16,519
So he moved down to Uh, he moved down to

428
00:26:16,559 --> 00:26:18,920
Costa Rica and then started like an herb farm. And

429
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,119
that was where I filmed that iboga video. Uh saw

430
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:28,839
Bannistereopsis flowering the ayahuasca vine. Saw a bunch of a

431
00:26:28,839 --> 00:26:31,920
bunch of great plants. Man gorana, you know the like

432
00:26:32,039 --> 00:26:36,559
the caffeine drink that they sell and energy drinks. Sometimes,

433
00:26:37,279 --> 00:26:39,200
what do I feel as an edible fruiting plant that's

434
00:26:39,279 --> 00:26:45,880
underrated Prunas Texina one hundred percent through some dirt, socks

435
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,519
and mosquitoes. I think that'd be a good idea, Like

436
00:26:48,599 --> 00:26:50,680
work up a sweat, sweat and to the oldies and

437
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,119
then just take a little washcloth and just you know,

438
00:26:53,599 --> 00:26:56,519
like a sponge and just get it smell and rank

439
00:26:56,559 --> 00:26:58,599
as hel and stuff that in the trap. I bet

440
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,079
it would work. You know. I don't want to take

441
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:05,799
money away from Biogens for their sixty dollars sixty dollars

442
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,960
for three packets of the sweet scent, but you could

443
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,680
probably do that too. But that sweet scent, man, I

444
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,200
don't know how they do it. Seriously, It's like the

445
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,880
size of a silica packet, and it's just fucking god,

446
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,480
it's awful. It literally smells like a stinky Russian no offense.

447
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,319
I only say it because I've got stinky. I got

448
00:27:21,319 --> 00:27:25,559
a Russian friend who smells fucking terrible when he gets sweaty.

449
00:27:25,559 --> 00:27:28,640
And it's not his fault, it's his external flora. But

450
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,240
the guy fucking stinks. I mean, it's a very distinct smell,

451
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:38,960
you know, those those Russians. Anyway, Okay, shit, what was

452
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:44,319
I gonna do? Here we go. I can't wait to

453
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,519
be so discombobulated when I've got when I'm older, and

454
00:27:47,559 --> 00:27:50,079
I got like they got to put on a reading glasses.

455
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:51,720
You know, I could go, shit, what the fucking then

456
00:27:51,759 --> 00:27:53,720
put the glasses on my ice heat. That's some very

457
00:27:55,400 --> 00:28:01,720
but he's wearing a priest costume. Anyway, I got these

458
00:28:01,799 --> 00:28:04,680
se man I got so much ship to ship everywhere.

459
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:08,559
There's just stuff everywhere. That's my reminder to myself. I

460
00:28:08,599 --> 00:28:10,759
don't put things away until I know I don't need

461
00:28:10,799 --> 00:28:16,319
to be reminded of them anymore. Yeah. Yeah, prunas Techsana

462
00:28:17,319 --> 00:28:20,680
would be uh would be great to see or not

463
00:28:20,759 --> 00:28:22,759
to see, to get at the cultivation more. We went

464
00:28:22,839 --> 00:28:27,680
to go collect seed. It's not ready yet. It's such

465
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,640
a crime that that thing is not grown more. It

466
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,720
would probably do well in Oklahoma, you know, I want to.

467
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,559
I have like visions of some people just growing fields

468
00:28:35,559 --> 00:28:38,440
of all these rare, you know, native plants that nobody

469
00:28:38,519 --> 00:28:41,759
appreciates because the world wants boogaan views and fucking crape myrtles,

470
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,000
which is also what my book is about. Maybe I'll

471
00:28:44,039 --> 00:28:48,960
read from it later, but but it's the book is about,

472
00:28:49,079 --> 00:28:51,920
you know, our relationship with plant life, how fucking deranged

473
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,000
it is as a result of our disconnection, you know,

474
00:28:55,119 --> 00:28:58,599
like how native things being native isn't It's not some

475
00:28:58,759 --> 00:29:03,559
puritanical elitist bit to be on. It's just pragmatic. It's

476
00:29:03,599 --> 00:29:08,119
it's all rooted in ecology and connection and time, you know,

477
00:29:08,319 --> 00:29:10,880
time spent evolving in a place with a cast of

478
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,119
other living organisms that also composed that ecosystem. How everything

479
00:29:15,119 --> 00:29:19,200
has its own segment of native flora. How you know,

480
00:29:19,279 --> 00:29:21,640
the whole idea of like needing to go to national

481
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,079
parks to see incredible things is not real. It's obsolete.

482
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,240
There were incredible things where your house is now, before

483
00:29:28,279 --> 00:29:32,079
it all got destroyed to put up dollar generals, walmarts,

484
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,039
data centers, and et cetera. And you can bring those

485
00:29:36,079 --> 00:29:38,400
things back by killing your fucking lawn. And you know,

486
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,839
hyping these things up in culture and planting them, you know,

487
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,319
going out to like parks, like talking to your city

488
00:29:44,359 --> 00:29:47,240
hall and just advocate. Pretty shit. We had a meeting here.

489
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,279
They brought my house up. They used my house as

490
00:29:51,279 --> 00:29:54,160
an example. These like painted face so much makeup, they

491
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,279
look like a drag queen. God. It's just, you know,

492
00:29:57,359 --> 00:30:01,640
these people, I just spent my whole life trying to

493
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,720
just stay out of their world. They're the people who

494
00:30:04,759 --> 00:30:07,160
go into local politics because they got to get They

495
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,960
got to get their sisters, their sister in law's brother

496
00:30:11,079 --> 00:30:17,599
a construction contractor, or their their uncle's wife's a developer,

497
00:30:17,799 --> 00:30:19,839
and she needs to get a you know, she needs

498
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,119
to make sure her development goes through and it bulldozes

499
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,079
the woodland to put up you know, four hundred ugly

500
00:30:24,119 --> 00:30:27,079
houses or whatever. So that's why people go into city politics.

501
00:30:28,319 --> 00:30:32,319
And anyway, they were talking about native plants, and you know,

502
00:30:32,359 --> 00:30:34,279
they just it's kind of like this thing they say

503
00:30:34,319 --> 00:30:35,799
for the end of the day. There's a small crew

504
00:30:35,799 --> 00:30:38,119
of people that was, you know, organizing for native plants,

505
00:30:39,039 --> 00:30:42,240
and they, you know, they're like, yeah, we have to

506
00:30:42,279 --> 00:30:44,519
hear it. I guess by you know, by law. You

507
00:30:44,559 --> 00:30:46,920
guys filed this thing. We're gonna we'll sit we'll hear

508
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,519
it out. But you could tell us his total irol.

509
00:30:48,559 --> 00:30:50,359
They don't give a shit that probably you know, playing

510
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,200
fucking Candy Crush on their phone while they're sitting up

511
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,839
there listening to people come to the mic and speak

512
00:30:56,759 --> 00:31:00,559
about native plant ordinances and they use my house is

513
00:31:00,599 --> 00:31:03,119
an example of what not to do. It was funny,

514
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,160
But my shit is tidy. I keep it clean, I

515
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,720
keep it pruned. If anyone, you know, if anyone came

516
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:12,240
to take it away from me, God, you see me

517
00:31:12,319 --> 00:31:14,799
on the news because it's my place of peace. It's

518
00:31:14,839 --> 00:31:16,880
the reason you haven't seen me on the news yet,

519
00:31:17,079 --> 00:31:20,319
you know, Calm me down so much biodiversity in my

520
00:31:20,319 --> 00:31:23,319
fucking year. I got four species of lizards, three species

521
00:31:23,319 --> 00:31:27,160
of amphibians, you know, tons of birds. You look at

522
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,119
my house from a drone zoomed up, it's like the

523
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,119
only green thing in a sea of dead lawn. I

524
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,920
love it when alone looks dead though what it should be,

525
00:31:35,279 --> 00:31:36,799
you know, especially when you live in a place where

526
00:31:36,839 --> 00:31:38,519
it's one hundred and five degrees or six months out

527
00:31:38,519 --> 00:31:46,519
of the year. So anyway, all right, yeah, it's down

528
00:31:46,559 --> 00:31:49,960
here in South Texas. You know, it's a heavily repressed area.

529
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,000
What if ten species of amphibians, now, I would love

530
00:31:55,039 --> 00:31:58,759
to I get chirping frogs, and I get the Gulf

531
00:31:58,799 --> 00:32:04,880
Coast toads, and uh oh, you're someone saying something cool.

532
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:06,640
If anyone is curious about what you can use as

533
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:13,079
a DIY a mosquito attract and has a comprehensive list

534
00:32:13,119 --> 00:32:16,160
of different chemicals, it's just lactic acid, man, It's literally

535
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,279
just lactic acid and maybe urea. There's a couple other

536
00:32:19,319 --> 00:32:22,359
things too. Their organic sense. It's not like the stuff

537
00:32:22,359 --> 00:32:24,680
they put in there is toxic. It's just you know,

538
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,680
it's it's lactic acid is basically sweat is that right?

539
00:32:29,759 --> 00:32:34,119
I think so it smells like sweat, I mean, and

540
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,119
that's what's attracted, and that's what kind of clued me

541
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,440
in that that was the main thing that attracted. Oh,

542
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,920
the hummingbird showed up. That's nice. Speaking of speaking of

543
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,759
my think, y know, it's so much fucking life around

544
00:32:43,799 --> 00:32:47,799
my yard is just such a fucking haven. Got I

545
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:49,240
go out and I go into the world. I want

546
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,559
to puke. I'm looking at like personal injury attorney signs

547
00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:55,079
and you know, car dealerships, all his nauseating shit, idiots

548
00:32:55,119 --> 00:32:58,000
driving around the giant jacked up trucks, no fence. I

549
00:32:58,079 --> 00:33:02,599
know some nice people that have overpriced, you know, oversized

550
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,519
over compensation vehicles, and they're very nice people. But I'm

551
00:33:06,599 --> 00:33:10,039
just saying, right, and I come back and I see

552
00:33:10,039 --> 00:33:13,480
all this stuff. I see money, worshiping, materialism, garbage, lack

553
00:33:13,519 --> 00:33:15,559
of creativity, lack of Then I want a fucking puke.

554
00:33:15,799 --> 00:33:18,359
I come back to my yard and it's like just

555
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,400
cleanses me. It's like an enema of the mind, the

556
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,880
mind and a spirit. You know, It's like someone stuck

557
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:28,200
a tube and they're flushed all a all the shit

558
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,319
out of there and cleansed it, and then I feel

559
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,079
it's so pleasant, and I just my daughter and I

560
00:33:34,119 --> 00:33:37,839
just put up a purple Martin house. Horribly built, horribly.

561
00:33:37,839 --> 00:33:40,119
It's like cheap plastic. You got it from practice supply.

562
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,559
It's a fucking ripoff. It's like one hundred and fifty

563
00:33:42,559 --> 00:33:45,000
bucks for this thing. And then I found out it's

564
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,000
made out of plastic that's got the density of a

565
00:33:47,039 --> 00:33:50,200
milk carton. The pieces snap off. She was being very

566
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,519
good while I was throwing a fit too, because I

567
00:33:52,519 --> 00:33:54,319
put it on. I put the floor on the wrong

568
00:33:54,319 --> 00:33:56,119
way to second floor and it didn't line up with

569
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,920
the pole. Ah fuck, I gotta throw throwing stuff around,

570
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:04,480
you know it. It's like a Tony Soprano style temper tantrument. Sorry, baby,

571
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,880
I'm sorry. Don't don't repeat what I'm saying. You know,

572
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,280
I'm sorry. I'm acting like a toddler right now. You're

573
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,280
more mature than me. If this went, but that's literally

574
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,400
what happened to me. And then the whole time you're

575
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,119
throwing shit, you're keeping in mind that this is one

576
00:34:17,199 --> 00:34:19,320
hundred This thing costs you one hundred and fifty bucks.

577
00:34:19,519 --> 00:34:21,440
It's made out of plastic. Was probably made by six

578
00:34:21,559 --> 00:34:27,280
year olds in Beijing, and soon we're gonna have six

579
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,440
year olds making those plastic houses. Hero, right, he's gonna

580
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,599
change stuff. Right, We're gonna we're gonna have exploited child labor. Okay,

581
00:34:35,599 --> 00:34:39,679
I'm just kidding. But anyway, we finally got it up,

582
00:34:39,679 --> 00:34:42,920
and so it's fucking nice man. It's you know, you

583
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,119
gotta create a habitat. But I didn't want to put

584
00:34:45,159 --> 00:34:46,920
it up. I got out a year ago, but I

585
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,920
didn't want to put it up then because the trees

586
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:53,400
weren't big enough. Now I got some tepewahes who came

587
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,920
to pull over a Lenti for Basi that I put up,

588
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,400
and they grow so fast it's like instant shades. So

589
00:34:58,440 --> 00:34:59,840
now I can put that thing up so it's not

590
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:03,119
just getting blasted by the sun. So we put that up. Yeah,

591
00:35:03,159 --> 00:35:05,440
it's so nice man. And I don't have a big lot.

592
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,239
I've got a tiny lot. It's just dense, you know,

593
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,960
and it's literally blowing the mind. That's breaking the brain

594
00:35:12,039 --> 00:35:15,960
of people at city Hall. They don't they don't understand

595
00:35:16,559 --> 00:35:21,320
why would you not want a lawn? Just crazy crazy.

596
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,679
My yard is so much cooler. It's not like temperature wise,

597
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,800
sounds amazing at night. You know, I've talked about all

598
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,880
this before you get Zip'm not born anybody, but just

599
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,239
in case, sounds amazing. And like the fucking tree crickets,

600
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:39,000
it's like a oh, it's so pleasant, so pleasant. No,

601
00:35:39,159 --> 00:35:41,079
I don't want to do I can't do life in

602
00:35:41,119 --> 00:35:47,559
my yard. I'm not staying here. But but yeah, but

603
00:35:47,639 --> 00:35:49,599
anybody could do that. And I planted dance and then

604
00:35:49,599 --> 00:35:51,320
you just get those hedge clippers, those head you know

605
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,480
it looks like an alligator guard. Just head it up,

606
00:35:53,519 --> 00:35:55,840
give it a haircut. You gotta go in. You got

607
00:35:55,840 --> 00:36:00,000
to remove some other stuff, you know it. It's like something

608
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:02,480
is getting now competed by a faster growing plant. You

609
00:36:02,519 --> 00:36:04,480
got to go remove it. But when you're planting a

610
00:36:04,559 --> 00:36:09,320
native plant garden, you're basically doing ecological succession, right, go

611
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,440
look it up. Primary succession, secondary succession. The first things

612
00:36:12,519 --> 00:36:14,039
you plant are things that are not going to be

613
00:36:14,119 --> 00:36:16,280
there in two or three years. That's the best way

614
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,760
to do it. Like you're gonna plant the annuals. Shit,

615
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,079
they can take the full sun. The first year here,

616
00:36:21,639 --> 00:36:23,800
I got so blasted with sun and I was tired

617
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,119
of having the water I just got some of those

618
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,760
sunflower cultivars that grow big as hell, you know. I

619
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:31,880
bought them a scamazon or some and I put the

620
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:35,159
seeds directly into the ground, watered it and they they

621
00:36:35,199 --> 00:36:37,239
worked great. They grow fast as hell. They get up

622
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,119
to eight feet tall. Work as a shade screen for

623
00:36:40,199 --> 00:36:42,480
everything else. You gotta water them, but not that much.

624
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,920
They work as a shade screen for everything else. They

625
00:36:45,119 --> 00:36:47,840
you know, which they create like a mini canopy shade structure.

626
00:36:48,079 --> 00:36:50,039
Because before that, I've been putting up little you know,

627
00:36:50,199 --> 00:36:53,360
like t posts and shade cloth because my yard it's

628
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,559
so fucking hot on here. Shit was just getting irradiated,

629
00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:01,360
you know. And so I planted these sunflowers and they

630
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:06,000
just took over. And and but they're annuals, so they're

631
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,599
not going to be around in a year. And then

632
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,800
I got an infestation. It was so great. I got

633
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,880
an infestation of bordered patch caterpillars, which turned into butterflies.

634
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,800
We had thousands of butterflies flying around, and they destroyed

635
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,559
the sunflowers. They ate the sunflowers because the native ones here.

636
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,039
This was a fancy called the bar bread in the greenhouse.

637
00:37:23,599 --> 00:37:24,840
You know. That's why I had to get the ski

638
00:37:25,039 --> 00:37:29,480
the season scamson. But the native sunflower has evidently evolved

639
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:33,199
something that keeps those bordered patch caterpillars away, or rather

640
00:37:33,199 --> 00:37:36,679
they've selected for it, because it's the weedy native sunflower.

641
00:37:36,679 --> 00:37:38,960
It's everywhere, and you never see them getting chewed on

642
00:37:39,119 --> 00:37:42,000
by these caterpillars. Well, I had put in this soft,

643
00:37:42,559 --> 00:37:46,320
you know, poodle version of these native plants that just

644
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,760
grows big and puts up a big flower, and it

645
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:52,199
didn't have those same chemical defenses, probably cesscaterpene lactons, because

646
00:37:52,199 --> 00:37:53,880
that's what a lot of members of ESTRASI have. It

647
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,360
didn't have his strong ciscaterpene lactons, and it wasn't part

648
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,679
of this evolutionary arms race between the local species of

649
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,519
bordered patch butterfly or the local ecotype of border patch

650
00:38:03,599 --> 00:38:07,239
butterfly and that local ecotype of heli anthus anyways, and

651
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,960
so they just got annihilated, and that was good because

652
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,639
they'd already grown up, gotten tall, provided shade for my

653
00:38:13,679 --> 00:38:15,880
other plants, and I would have had to remove them anyway.

654
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,239
And so now all I had to do since all

655
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,960
the leaves and since we're denuded of leaves by the caterpillars.

656
00:38:20,199 --> 00:38:22,000
All I had to go do is take a machety

657
00:38:22,039 --> 00:38:24,639
to the stalks and cut down the stalks. It was great,

658
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,599
worked out great. But that's basically what you're doing when

659
00:38:26,599 --> 00:38:30,039
you're doing a native plant garden ecological succession. If you're

660
00:38:30,079 --> 00:38:35,119
starting from zero, if you're starting from a bare a

661
00:38:35,199 --> 00:38:40,519
bare patch of ground, that's what you need to do,

662
00:38:40,559 --> 00:38:42,239
which is what a lawn is. It's just the barren

663
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,079
patch of ground. The roots barely got into the ground.

664
00:38:45,519 --> 00:38:47,320
The lead. You know, you're keeping the ship bonds eyed.

665
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,320
So if you're keeping if it's that tall, like most

666
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,360
grass is, the roots are only that deep, they're not

667
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,000
doing ship for the soil, which makes them really easy

668
00:38:54,039 --> 00:38:56,199
to kill unless you have bermuda, in which case you

669
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,079
have to go in and hit it with round up,

670
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:04,320
targeted targeted applications of round up. Right, it's nasty when

671
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:05,960
they're spraying on crops. You want to eat it. But

672
00:39:06,639 --> 00:39:11,440
it's one of the least toxic herbicides, you know, so

673
00:39:11,679 --> 00:39:16,280
it's kind of a necessary evil. But yeah, but yeah,

674
00:39:16,519 --> 00:39:17,920
so that's what you do. So find out what the

675
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:22,320
pioneer species are. The native pioneer species the weedy quote

676
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:26,719
wheedy native species in your area, and uh, and then

677
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,039
plant those first. If you're starting with a bear a

678
00:39:29,159 --> 00:39:31,440
bear lawn, if you go trying to plant the shit

679
00:39:31,519 --> 00:39:35,280
that's like third or fourth in line for ecological succession,

680
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,840
you know, the stuff that doesn't get established till later

681
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,800
and it's slow growing and needs a little bit of

682
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,840
shade whatever, And you try planting that first, you can

683
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:44,840
have a hard time. You know. I had we get

684
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,840
Verbosena and coelioides. It's a great native plant, spreads like

685
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:54,079
wildfire covered and pollinator is probably invasive as hell on

686
00:39:54,199 --> 00:39:56,679
other continents where there's no checks and balances for it.

687
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,599
And so, but you throw seeds in it, you rip

688
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:01,440
up a long on throw seeds. You'll have a fucking

689
00:40:01,599 --> 00:40:04,880
thicket of verbsen in celioides. And then the next year

690
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:08,280
it'll be gone. While it'll recede, but it'll be gone.

691
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:12,280
And meanwhile, you're protecting that ground from getting beaten, beaten

692
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:15,119
down by the sun. It's all about protecting the ground,

693
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,039
you know, It's all about protecting that ground from getting

694
00:40:18,079 --> 00:40:20,360
heated by the sun, at least to the latitude that

695
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:24,239
I live at all right, round up absolutely does kill

696
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,159
bermuda grass. I've done it plenty of times. I don't

697
00:40:27,199 --> 00:40:30,039
have any bermuda grass. And what also kills bermuda grass

698
00:40:30,159 --> 00:40:33,480
is once once shit gets so dense, like this is

699
00:40:33,519 --> 00:40:37,719
outside my window right now, once it gets so dense,

700
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:42,360
you don't have you know, it's there's no there's no

701
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,480
life for it. That's why I like planting it. This,

702
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:46,599
I don't like it. I hate fucking hate it when

703
00:40:46,639 --> 00:40:49,199
people do this in a line, even lease spaced with

704
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,719
a diamulch. What is it ship? What's it in doctrinated

705
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:57,920
which said indoctrinated garbage? You know you're planting like a

706
00:40:58,159 --> 00:41:01,199
fucking like you're planting in front of a CBS pharmacy

707
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,880
or a bank, you know, so what's the fucking landscaping?

708
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,079
Looks like it for the Wells Fargo? So part of

709
00:41:06,119 --> 00:41:09,280
the death cult that brought you to the lawn. Oh god,

710
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,679
I see the name squarespace and I just want to barf.

711
00:41:12,559 --> 00:41:15,559
You know, they they're really they're pushing it. If I

712
00:41:15,639 --> 00:41:18,519
knew a better web hoster for the website, I would

713
00:41:18,599 --> 00:41:20,119
do that instead. All right, what do we want to

714
00:41:20,159 --> 00:41:24,199
talk about? No, I'm not actually a priest. This is

715
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,320
all a joke. Well I shouldn't say that, you never

716
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,639
know I could take address to turn up events and

717
00:41:29,679 --> 00:41:31,840
abandoned the botany thing and just going to you know,

718
00:41:32,559 --> 00:41:39,920
you get all expenses paid, right. Oh god, you see

719
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:43,119
that Bill Burbert when he was on a he was

720
00:41:43,159 --> 00:41:45,719
on a morning talk show and the talk show host said,

721
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,239
didn't you what I heard? You got in some trouble

722
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:51,599
for that that those comments? Man, but the Catholic Church,

723
00:41:51,679 --> 00:41:53,440
you think he went a little too far? And his

724
00:41:53,599 --> 00:41:56,280
response was, tell do you think the Catholic Church went

725
00:41:56,320 --> 00:42:02,440
a little too far? Yeah? Oh he's great, all right,

726
00:42:04,199 --> 00:42:06,400
epic stuff. How can I buy prints of your photos?

727
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,039
If you want to buy prints of my photos the

728
00:42:08,119 --> 00:42:11,800
way I've done it before, email me, tell me what

729
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:15,559
you want. I place an order with easy canvas prints

730
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:19,440
with the full resolution, like fifteen megabyte version of the photo.

731
00:42:20,119 --> 00:42:24,400
And then and then oh thank you David, and then

732
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,039
you and then I'll send it to you. Then you

733
00:42:28,119 --> 00:42:29,800
get it that way. But I don't you, you know,

734
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,480
I do these canvas things because they're sturdy, and they're easier,

735
00:42:33,559 --> 00:42:37,960
and they look nicer and they don't have that reflective plexiglass.

736
00:42:39,119 --> 00:42:41,320
How do I learn more about my local native species

737
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:45,199
for planting? Use the app I naturalist. Uh use the

738
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:49,159
explorer feature type in your county, type in plants in

739
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:51,159
the what you're looking for. There's one field for what

740
00:42:51,199 --> 00:42:54,079
you're looking for plants, birds, reptiles, whatever, And there's another

741
00:42:54,639 --> 00:42:57,480
field for location. Type in plants, type in your county.

742
00:42:57,719 --> 00:42:59,719
See what comes up. Some of that ship's going to

743
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,719
be in a lot is not. You can find out

744
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:04,400
whether it's in basive or not when you click on

745
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:11,320
the tax on name and the species name. Yeah, anyway,

746
00:43:12,119 --> 00:43:14,440
that's the best way. Or join your native Local Native

747
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:22,519
Plants site. It's the best thing. Autism speaks makes me

748
00:43:22,599 --> 00:43:24,039
want to barf. I don't know what the fuck he's

749
00:43:24,079 --> 00:43:30,039
talking about. Is this like a I can't tell if

750
00:43:30,079 --> 00:43:32,079
it's like someone it's like a ship poster or is

751
00:43:32,119 --> 00:43:35,039
it a or is it I don't know. Maybe he's

752
00:43:35,079 --> 00:43:39,880
talking about his author I don't know. Educate my local

753
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:41,960
communities that I get off you. You know, that's easier

754
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,400
said than done. Pallet's what I've been trying to do, right,

755
00:43:45,519 --> 00:43:47,800
It's a you know, I stand out down there, really do.

756
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,400
It's a very square community. They can be very nice though.

757
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:55,679
It's a very square and repressed community, very very string

758
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,840
You know, they want to They want the lawns, even

759
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,199
though we're literally like thirty minutes from the peyote gardens

760
00:44:02,519 --> 00:44:04,760
in a place where you know, plants dominate that have

761
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:10,360
evolved to store pounds of water and carbohydrates because it's

762
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,360
so goddamn dry, and they want a lawn, you know.

763
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,239
Oh yeah, they got an app called Merlin for birds.

764
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:18,800
I saw this thing. I saw this thing today. It's

765
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,719
really targeted advertising on social media, which is also terrible,

766
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:25,199
but they were targeting it towards me because I saw

767
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,280
some cool birds in Costa Rica and I was uploading

768
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,239
photos and whatever, and so they targeted this thing towards me.

769
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:32,840
That's like a little gadget looks like one of those

770
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,920
little mini speakers you attached to your backpack, and it

771
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,199
records bird noises and then uses AI when you're hooked

772
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:42,039
up the Internet to tell you what birds were around you,

773
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,079
which is cool, but it's two hundred and fifty bucks.

774
00:44:44,119 --> 00:44:49,119
I'm not going to fucking pay that. So anyway, growing endemics, now,

775
00:44:49,159 --> 00:44:52,519
that's my carnivorous plants over there. I got some rare

776
00:44:52,679 --> 00:44:58,480
romeliads that a friend grew. I got some horse cripplers

777
00:44:58,559 --> 00:45:04,000
going and uh and then some farroal cactus. That's it.

778
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:08,880
Not enough. I got some Marcella fern water fern. I'm

779
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,760
not using as much of that space as I need to.

780
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:17,039
It should be growing more so. Anyway, Uh, yeah you too. Yeah,

781
00:45:17,079 --> 00:45:24,920
have a good four twenty bird call app anyway. No,

782
00:45:25,039 --> 00:45:27,079
I'm not in Costa Rica. I'm at home. I'm going

783
00:45:27,119 --> 00:45:30,119
to Atlanta tomorrow and might go to you know, I

784
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:37,719
might go to fucking Turkey and Jim and then I

785
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:41,079
think I might go to New Mexico and in May,

786
00:45:42,079 --> 00:45:43,920
and then we might and then I'm gonna go to

787
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,800
New Mexico again the cloud Craft with Allen at the

788
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:54,400
Mycology Fair. Ah in Cloudcraft, New Mexico. Yeah, but I

789
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:55,679
got a bunch of stuff. I got it. Man. I

790
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,159
need like a fucking you know, I need an I

791
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:01,280
need a kind of a system or something. I'm losing,

792
00:46:02,039 --> 00:46:04,760
you know, I lose my shit. I gotta start taking notes,

793
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,280
writing stuff down. But I can't do it because I

794
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:09,039
have you know, I have one thought and then five

795
00:46:09,119 --> 00:46:12,159
seconds later I got another one. Lose it too much. Okay,

796
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:16,760
we'll look through this. We're gonna go over here. Well

797
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:18,880
see if we can read a little bit. Where did

798
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,400
this thing go? Read a little bit from this book.

799
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,559
There were some good sections. I was reading parts of

800
00:46:25,639 --> 00:46:29,880
it last night. I gotta finish this fucking thing by tuesday. Damn, man,

801
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:36,880
that's crazy. There's no time to do anything, right. I

802
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,440
gotta get this back to the copy editor by tuesday.

803
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:51,800
All right, let's go. Okay, Yeah, you gotta get that

804
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:53,960
ro unit. You know, you can get ro units for

805
00:46:54,079 --> 00:46:56,679
like one hundred and fifty bucks and then you can

806
00:46:56,760 --> 00:47:00,199
try to install them yourself. It's a pain in the ass. See,

807
00:47:00,199 --> 00:47:01,519
it's not a pan the ass. You just you got

808
00:47:01,639 --> 00:47:03,960
to drill into the pipe a little bit, you know,

809
00:47:04,039 --> 00:47:05,559
but you need room under your sink. But an RO

810
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,639
unit is great. That's what I water all the carnivorous

811
00:47:08,679 --> 00:47:12,280
plants with because you know, those those guys at Carnivoral

812
00:47:12,599 --> 00:47:15,400
really got me in to thinking about water, you know,

813
00:47:15,519 --> 00:47:17,760
for the fluoridation of the water supply. And you know,

814
00:47:18,159 --> 00:47:21,000
have you ever seen a COMMI drinking tap water? And

815
00:47:21,119 --> 00:47:24,679
they got me thinking about particulates in the water, which

816
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,079
is really bad, especially in a lot of Texas because

817
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:31,400
how easily limestone dissolves. Probably not as it's probably cleaner

818
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:35,239
in areas where there's more granite or a volcanic rock. Well,

819
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:38,159
I don't know about that, because West Texas is a

820
00:47:38,199 --> 00:47:40,280
lot of volcanic and they have ship tapwater too. Well,

821
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:42,199
it doesn't taste bad, it tastes good, but it's still

822
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,880
got high ppms. All those minerals that are good. You

823
00:47:45,039 --> 00:47:46,960
just want to make sure it's minerals and not like

824
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:55,920
petroleum petroleum byproducts fucking West Texas. Not fine, Ray, what

825
00:47:55,960 --> 00:48:00,599
are you talking about? Middlando desk is not polluted? So

826
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:04,360
the ppms. You get a tag like a tapwater meter

827
00:48:05,199 --> 00:48:07,880
which is like fifteen bucks, not meter, a reader you know,

828
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,360
probably made in Shina by six year olds, and and

829
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,079
you put it in the tap water, and I'll give

830
00:48:14,079 --> 00:48:16,360
you a rough estimate of what your ppms are here,

831
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,559
it's like five point fifty. I got the r the

832
00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:21,960
ro thing for like one hundred and fifty bucks. Somebody,

833
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:24,360
these fucking companies wild charge your nine hundred bucks total

834
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:27,559
scam artists such a scam. You don't need to pay

835
00:48:27,599 --> 00:48:29,079
that to get it for one hundred and fifty. If

836
00:48:29,079 --> 00:48:31,840
you got it and put it under your sink, if

837
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:33,559
you need to hire a plumber, they're gonna rip you

838
00:48:33,599 --> 00:48:35,000
off to but you could probably figure out how to

839
00:48:35,039 --> 00:48:37,440
do it yourself. Just take a day set a day's sight.

840
00:48:38,519 --> 00:48:41,639
And after I put the ro in, the ppms were

841
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,400
like fourteen and I could It was cool to be

842
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,320
able to see it with the tapwater meter. You know,

843
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:48,679
it's got two prongs in there and it measures the current.

844
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,599
So anyway, you got to get that ro man. You

845
00:48:52,679 --> 00:48:54,679
gotta get You can't be messing around with this shit.

846
00:48:54,679 --> 00:48:57,000
You get kidney. I mean, we're all gonna get cancer eventually,

847
00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:00,880
you know. See that's part of the crime pay optimistic

848
00:49:01,159 --> 00:49:04,199
ethos here. We're all gonna cancer in messy. But if

849
00:49:04,199 --> 00:49:05,840
you could stave it off a few years by not

850
00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:09,599
drinking poisoned water, why not? You know? Thoughts on poison

851
00:49:09,639 --> 00:49:11,559
ivy I love it. I got a video on poison

852
00:49:11,639 --> 00:49:13,639
ivy I still have to do for the for the

853
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:17,679
YouTube over there. You know Anacardi a C. Let's talk

854
00:49:17,679 --> 00:49:22,280
about Anacardi ac Okay, wonderful family, like one third of

855
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,119
the plants of allergenic compounds in them, I had. I

856
00:49:26,199 --> 00:49:29,760
did a podcast with Susan Bell Nopelu. I always do that,

857
00:49:30,679 --> 00:49:34,880
Who's from the US Botanic Garden. Awesome lady studies antacardiac

858
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:39,400
and there's a lot of neotropical members of Anacardia ace

859
00:49:39,519 --> 00:49:44,199
that are incredible, like amphipterigium and uh, oh god, what's

860
00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:45,440
the other one. I have to look it up on

861
00:49:45,519 --> 00:49:49,280
I D I saw some really cool ones growing with

862
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:54,599
laf difusa, the false peote and correct the row. But anyway,

863
00:49:54,599 --> 00:49:56,519
there's really there's a lot of really cool members of

864
00:49:56,559 --> 00:50:00,920
this family. But yeah, one third have the the genic compounds,

865
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:03,519
which will is horrible. As rash Man, you will just

866
00:50:03,679 --> 00:50:07,679
you know, you will get I said, wow, really we

867
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,880
have some issues. You touch that stuff and it oxidizes

868
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:12,639
to black. At least you rush you all does. But

869
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:17,519
then there's other compounds too, Lithrea costica and Chile produces litriol,

870
00:50:17,639 --> 00:50:21,239
which I think you need to be sensitized to. Cash shoes.

871
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:25,480
Of course this will be in an upcoming video because

872
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:28,320
they're naturalized. They're not native, but they're naturalized in Costa Rica.

873
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:32,880
Cash shoes. The fruit is toxic. It's well, it's not toxic,

874
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:38,639
it's allergenic. So uh and that's not you rush you all.

875
00:50:38,679 --> 00:50:41,039
It's a different compound. I don't know what compound that is.

876
00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:45,360
You could ask deepseek AI is generally terrible, but I've

877
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:48,559
been using it to ask some questions because it's very helpful.

878
00:50:48,599 --> 00:50:53,079
It'll save AI will answer shit for me that would

879
00:50:53,079 --> 00:50:55,480
have taken me forty minutes to you know, parse through

880
00:50:55,519 --> 00:50:59,519
research papers and read right. But again, I'm not using

881
00:50:59,559 --> 00:51:02,719
it to like make songs for me, your videos or

882
00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:05,079
anyth to. So it's you know, still probably using up

883
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:10,960
a lot of energy from data centers, and it's terrible,

884
00:51:11,039 --> 00:51:14,840
but uh, you know it's gonna be doing horrible things regardless,

885
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,840
I might as well use it for good things like education. Anyway,

886
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:23,079
why is this thing coming up? How do I turn

887
00:51:23,159 --> 00:51:28,639
this out? There? We go all right? No, I use

888
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:30,519
deep Seat because it was the ones it's the one

889
00:51:30,559 --> 00:51:33,480
that pissed off all the American oligarchs, and it's free.

890
00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,840
I'm really curious about China, man. I know it's an

891
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,119
authoritarian state, but we're headed there too, so you know

892
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:41,519
what the fun But I'm curious about China because they

893
00:51:41,639 --> 00:51:46,159
put money in there's so much anti China propaganda, but

894
00:51:46,199 --> 00:51:48,679
also China seems to actually be putting money into education,

895
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:52,199
and not just education that's going to benefit them. For

896
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:55,920
private corporations like this can be you know, monetized somehow

897
00:51:55,960 --> 00:52:01,480
are used this this the research that comes from you know,

898
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:05,119
the research that comes from this science, from funding this

899
00:52:05,199 --> 00:52:08,960
science can be used to benefit corporations or whatever, or

900
00:52:09,079 --> 00:52:12,800
you just anthropersentaer But they're actually putting money into biological

901
00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:16,079
sciences and earth sciences too, like they fund botany over there.

902
00:52:17,159 --> 00:52:20,079
Like that's crazy, Like this is you know, we live

903
00:52:20,159 --> 00:52:25,280
in a country where senators mock learning about the fucking

904
00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:27,639
living machine that is the ecosystem around you because they're

905
00:52:27,679 --> 00:52:29,719
too shit for brain to see. Why it's important? What

906
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:31,719
does that do? It doesn't do anything. Why are we

907
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,239
studying the sex laves of quail? You know? That's like

908
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:37,800
a fucking car mechanic voicing a strong opinion on neurosurgery.

909
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:40,000
You're a fucking idiot. Just don't say anything. I'm not

910
00:52:40,119 --> 00:52:43,239
saying car mechanics areus, but no, when it's your place.

911
00:52:43,679 --> 00:52:45,880
There's plenty of things I shouldn't voice a strong opinion

912
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:47,760
about because I don't know shit, and I would say

913
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:49,800
that I wouldn't voice an opinion on them. You have

914
00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:54,480
like a fucking Republican senator voicing voicing opinions on you know,

915
00:52:54,599 --> 00:52:58,039
why study the fucking reproductive cycles of a certain mammal

916
00:52:58,199 --> 00:53:00,280
or a reptile or a shuit. The fuck up and

917
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:03,440
sit down. Stick to what you know, right, nethotism and

918
00:53:03,559 --> 00:53:07,239
fucking rewarding. Uh, you know the corporations that pay you.

919
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:13,599
You're sleazy. Okay, anyway, let's go back to you know,

920
00:53:13,679 --> 00:53:15,719
that's why people go into politics, right, you say what

921
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:22,440
they do? Over? You say what they're doing. Oh wow,

922
00:53:23,079 --> 00:53:33,599
you got a lot of astrophy him see Uh is

923
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:36,719
that from then? Oh? No, I hope it's not from

924
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:44,239
the wild. Uh? Hold on, hold, just give me a second, right,

925
00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:57,320
holld on a second? Okay? Anyway, Oh god, what is

926
00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:59,679
the maybe like right now? Oh? You know what my

927
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:03,119
friend Mackenzie, who studies, what is she studying? She's studying

928
00:54:03,159 --> 00:54:06,039
brass casey. I don't know. She's an academic. She's She's

929
00:54:06,119 --> 00:54:09,000
not some bum like me. She's actually an academia. Over

930
00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:12,000
she's she was just in the maybe looking at the

931
00:54:12,159 --> 00:54:17,440
Titano fighting and Cara sense that fucking mono, you know,

932
00:54:17,519 --> 00:54:21,719
the only species in his family that grows in in

933
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,079
these like saltpan deserts. God, you gotta look at this

934
00:54:24,159 --> 00:54:26,039
fucking thing, man, Hold on, you pull this up. Let

935
00:54:26,039 --> 00:54:27,599
me pull this up on the phone. See this is

936
00:54:27,679 --> 00:54:30,559
more personal. It's like we're sitting on a porch right

937
00:54:31,119 --> 00:54:33,119
or in a confession booth. But I don't want to

938
00:54:33,119 --> 00:54:34,320
hear any of your ship. I don't want to hear

939
00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:36,079
all the bad stuff you done because it probably freaked

940
00:54:36,119 --> 00:54:40,679
me out. You know, this is I could just show

941
00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:43,360
you stuff on my phone. It's you know, it's it's

942
00:54:43,559 --> 00:54:45,559
really it's you know. I said, what they're doing now

943
00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:49,719
is pretty pretty impressive. Where's the ship posters? You know,

944
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,599
if anyone's been ship posting, I haven't seen it. I'm

945
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:56,159
sure there's been a couple shitty comments in there, you know,

946
00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:59,400
because everyone's mentally ill now and emotionally ill, which I

947
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:04,239
have full full sympathy. I'm there too, you know, but

948
00:55:04,559 --> 00:55:07,920
it causes people to, you know, leave some shitty comments

949
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:09,880
every once in a while. And I haven't seen any yet.

950
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:13,239
I don't know why somebody's not trying our greetings still

951
00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:16,039
we got we got a guy from India watching greetings

952
00:55:16,199 --> 00:55:20,559
greetings over there. You guys got some nice botany classes online.

953
00:55:20,599 --> 00:55:23,920
I've seen that. Oh you know what what is that company?

954
00:55:24,039 --> 00:55:27,599
Some company hit me up. They were nice guys. Let

955
00:55:27,679 --> 00:55:33,519
me find this. There's there's bodany classes online based on

956
00:55:33,599 --> 00:55:38,199
the crime pays, some of the videos that you can take.

957
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,639
Where the funck was this? What was this guy's name? Gwang?

958
00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:45,519
Here we go, Miyagi Labs, There we go. Nice guys

959
00:55:45,599 --> 00:55:47,840
seen him and his friend. I did a video call

960
00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:53,719
with them and they got Yeah, Gwang and Tyrone from

961
00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:56,760
Miyagi Labs. I should I should promote this because it's

962
00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:00,440
pretty cool. Miyagi Lab dot com and they like a

963
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,599
little curriculum so you could test your botany knowledge. And

964
00:56:03,679 --> 00:56:05,280
I looked over it and I was like, this is

965
00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:08,400
fucking nice. You guys done a good job. It's really good.

966
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:12,960
You know, systematics, phylogeny, plant id all that stuff. Mayagi Labs.

967
00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:17,199
What was I looking at? What was I gonna look up?

968
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:22,679
Oh Christ Jesus, when I was I gonna look up?

969
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:24,880
Before I got the strength to talk about Mayagi Labs?

970
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:31,480
Who was Oh Tigana fighting right? I don't know why

971
00:56:31,519 --> 00:56:33,119
you guys are watching it. You just want to see me,

972
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:39,480
you know, Okay, let's see where are the Oh yeah, Christ,

973
00:56:39,599 --> 00:56:42,480
look at this thing. This is a fucking weird plan.

974
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:46,079
So this thing was only discovered maybe six or seven

975
00:56:46,159 --> 00:56:52,079
years ago. And it's so weird. It's so weird that

976
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:57,199
it's in its own family and Brassic Kayley's the mustard order. Oh,

977
00:56:57,239 --> 00:57:00,760
she don't got any big, any bigger foam those death sets.

978
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:05,000
So that's in the salt pan deserts of Namibia. So

979
00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:07,840
and I was gonna go see it with my friend Russell,

980
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,559
but you know, my daughter, being diagnosed with leukinia, got

981
00:57:10,639 --> 00:57:13,719
in the way. Whoa shit, really dropped the fucking downer

982
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:17,920
right there. Uh, she's okay. Two years later, she's okay.

983
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:21,480
She finished treatment in July. That was a horrible fucking

984
00:57:21,559 --> 00:57:23,800
time period, though. God, I wanted to die. Okay, Let's

985
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:26,159
look at titana fighting again. Where's this said, Let's look look,

986
00:57:26,239 --> 00:57:33,320
let's look it up on a naturalist over there. All right, Uh,

987
00:57:34,559 --> 00:57:36,639
you gotta see this thing. God, it's so weird. It's

988
00:57:36,679 --> 00:57:38,559
such a weird form, and it's got to be such

989
00:57:38,639 --> 00:57:43,199
a fucking insanely stressful environment for any plant to grow in.

990
00:57:45,039 --> 00:57:48,800
So here's an arbarium collection of this titani fighting Paris sense.

991
00:57:50,039 --> 00:57:52,639
That's a branch. You can see the leaves are extremely

992
00:57:53,760 --> 00:58:01,760
attenuated and they just was like these waxy rosette leaves

993
00:58:02,199 --> 00:58:05,760
on these branches, and uh that was I took that

994
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:13,920
photo at their burium ah and wind hook, but uh

995
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:19,880
to see it in habitat, God damn. Yeah, look at

996
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:23,880
that thing like that. That's a cluster of leaves on

997
00:58:24,039 --> 00:58:28,239
this thing. To Gatto fighting caras sense And at the time,

998
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:29,880
that was the time I took that. That was the

999
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:32,800
only observation on nine Ashlarists. But people have been out

1000
00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:37,679
there and gotten better photos of it, which somebody should

1001
00:58:37,719 --> 00:58:45,840
really put up because no wait, view observations. M M

1002
00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:50,360
my ahead, thank you, Okay, cool? Look at this? God,

1003
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:53,400
Oh what a cool jeez. The habitat must be fucking

1004
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,639
insane too. That's the thing I always want to say

1005
00:58:55,679 --> 00:58:57,599
when I when I see a cool plant, I always

1006
00:58:57,639 --> 00:59:00,639
want to see the habitatic growsing. You have to see

1007
00:59:00,679 --> 00:59:04,320
the habitat. It's nothing without the habitat. There's no context,

1008
00:59:04,599 --> 00:59:06,519
there's no you know. When you see the habitat, then

1009
00:59:06,519 --> 00:59:10,239
you can start to imagine how this thing evolved, what's

1010
00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:13,639
selected for it. There's there's a picture of habitat. Who

1011
00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:18,920
is this this Mackenzie? No, someone else? Oh that's a

1012
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:22,559
guy gotten a tiff with he he's kind of a prick.

1013
00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:30,079
He's fine. Okay, there you go. Yeah, what a weird man?

1014
00:59:30,199 --> 00:59:33,760
What a god? What a word? All? Okay, we're hitting that.

1015
00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:39,480
We're hitting an hour here, I might might dibove, so God,

1016
00:59:39,559 --> 00:59:44,480
that is just so fucking wild man. Yeah. So that habitat,

1017
00:59:44,639 --> 00:59:48,280
this extreme habitat where not much can grow, very salty, soil,

1018
00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:52,519
very dry. I don't know what the annual rainfall is

1019
00:59:52,639 --> 00:59:55,880
like has produced this plant? That? And and what's weirder too,

1020
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:59,760
is how is this thing not discovered to science until

1021
01:00:00,039 --> 01:00:07,039
why does it describe twenty fourteen? I think crazy? Yeah,

1022
01:00:07,079 --> 01:00:09,039
in the mid desert is Arizona without cactus, but you

1023
01:00:09,119 --> 01:00:13,760
got plenty of miss Sims, plenty of isoace. The hell

1024
01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:15,480
that I walk in through, I don't know, buddy, what

1025
01:00:15,599 --> 01:00:17,239
did you walk in through? What do you? What are you?

1026
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:22,760
You're getting a stiffy or something? What you Relax? Okay?

1027
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:24,519
I got shit, I gotta do today. So I do

1028
01:00:24,639 --> 01:00:28,840
have to go in like ten minutes. But uh uh,

1029
01:00:29,159 --> 01:00:35,480
let's see any preference in stogies. Yeah, go for what

1030
01:00:35,639 --> 01:00:38,159
is the company that makes the fat bottom Betty? Those

1031
01:00:38,199 --> 01:00:40,800
are nice, those are very nice, you know, but again,

1032
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,400
you don't actually, hey, just you know, let it sit.

1033
01:00:44,559 --> 01:00:47,239
Go visit Volcanoes of elt seat or I'd love to.

1034
01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:49,679
I just don't want to be thrown a concentration camp.

1035
01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:58,239
Botany YouTubers Learn your Land is good. A lot of

1036
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:00,599
botany programs I honestly can't stand. And they just they

1037
01:01:00,719 --> 01:01:03,559
fucking bore me to tears. I can't do I can't

1038
01:01:03,599 --> 01:01:08,199
do it, you know. And they're overproduced, and crime pays

1039
01:01:08,239 --> 01:01:10,639
will never be overproduced. I've thought about it. The closest

1040
01:01:10,679 --> 01:01:13,639
I got was drone footage and fucking stock music, but

1041
01:01:13,719 --> 01:01:16,000
that was when I still had a free subscription through

1042
01:01:16,039 --> 01:01:18,639
the company that originally tried to monetize the Facebook page.

1043
01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:23,679
How well that work out for them? Ah? Where do

1044
01:01:23,719 --> 01:01:25,480
you get free stock music? That's what I want to

1045
01:01:25,519 --> 01:01:27,800
Who knows where I can get free stocking? Somebody got

1046
01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:30,679
a password that could let me have for free stock music.

1047
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:32,599
We won't use it that much, just me and Al.

1048
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,639
I won't share it. I'll send you stickers or something.

1049
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:39,039
Does anybody have that I shouldn't put that out there?

1050
01:01:39,079 --> 01:01:43,840
Does anybody have a password for a stock for an

1051
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:51,679
unlicensed stock photo or stock music website? You know the

1052
01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:54,760
YouTube stock music? Nah? This was nice. The one I

1053
01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:56,320
used to have. You could type in like a mood

1054
01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:59,079
and it would describe it, you know, for you instrumentals.

1055
01:01:59,119 --> 01:02:05,639
I just want instrumental. You know what's his? Hunter from

1056
01:02:05,719 --> 01:02:08,000
Cactus Quest makes his own music. I'm not I'm not

1057
01:02:08,079 --> 01:02:09,719
that talented. I don't know how to do that stuff.

1058
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:11,719
I don't know how he does it. He made me

1059
01:02:12,079 --> 01:02:14,320
a little something once, but I fucking lost that. I

1060
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:17,519
bet it's probably in an email or something. You know, Hunter,

1061
01:02:17,639 --> 01:02:20,039
Go check out Hunter at Cactus Quest. He's a wonderful man,

1062
01:02:20,119 --> 01:02:24,760
really nice guy. Get Ai to make you some stock music?

1063
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:27,440
How do you do that? Uh? Oh? You know mention

1064
01:02:27,559 --> 01:02:32,400
an Ai pisses some people off. It really does. Email

1065
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:35,800
for music crime pays, but body doesn't you know if

1066
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:40,280
you get something instrumental, you know he did with the

1067
01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:43,159

we're getting a little distracted here, but there's a lot

1084
01:04:06,039 --> 01:04:08,239
of good shit there is. I've been using it. It's

1085
01:04:08,239 --> 01:04:10,039
so good. I've been using it for some of the podcasts.

1086
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,840
Oh yeah, Lobby's to free. He's good. It's where I'm

and I'm sampled that slim shady bit from Yeah. I

1088
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:23,400
don't know. I've really gotten into a lot of that shit.

1089
01:04:23,599 --> 01:04:29,360
Herbie Hancock, of course, fucking solid great stuff. Nice nice

1090
01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:31,400
You put that on and you could do anything, so

1091
01:04:31,519 --> 01:04:39,679
it helps you focus. Solid shit. Oh, Tommy Guerrero, he's

1092
01:04:39,679 --> 01:04:45,440
a nice guy. That's some nice instrumental stuff. Anyway, all right,

1093
01:04:50,119 --> 01:04:54,800
Chile was uh like two weeks more than two weeks,

1094
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:57,480
and it's I start missing my girl. It sucks, I

1095
01:04:57,639 --> 01:05:01,559
start missing my little girl. How's Al doing. He's doing

1096
01:05:01,639 --> 01:05:03,960
really good. You know. He's doing public bathroom reviews, you know,

1097
01:05:04,039 --> 01:05:06,760
in the field House bathrooms in Chicago, doing some great stuff.

1098
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:11,440
Really got really gotten onto, you know tile we me

1099
01:05:11,559 --> 01:05:13,719
and Al did if you go far enough back on

1100
01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:17,159
YouTube channel, we did a we did. We tried to

1101
01:05:17,159 --> 01:05:19,840
get into the Sloan Ural Factory on Mannheim Road. You know,

1102
01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:22,599
this is like two thousand and nine or ten, and

1103
01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:26,199
uh may it's twenty ten, and they wouldn't let us in,

1104
01:05:26,559 --> 01:05:28,039
you know, because we're just a couple of yahoos. But

1105
01:05:28,159 --> 01:05:32,079
he just got invited to actually do what is this?

1106
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:36,320
It's a dead roach? Jesus Christ, Where the fuck did

1107
01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:38,679
that come from? Looks like it's just the characters that

1108
01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:45,599
lost the abdomen. Anyway, I don't really get roaches here

1109
01:05:45,599 --> 01:05:50,679
anymore because the lizards. Uh. But we got invited to

1110
01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:53,920
the Sloan Urinal Company, the Sloan Valve Company. You know,

1111
01:05:54,079 --> 01:05:56,559
we'll see journal. It's just a jurnal company. They make

1112
01:05:56,679 --> 01:05:58,920
valves too. That's what they want to be know for.

1113
01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:00,360
I they want to be known for the vale. I

1114
01:06:00,519 --> 01:06:03,480
like them for the journals. You know, you go any

1115
01:06:03,519 --> 01:06:06,239
and you go to the bedroom anywhere in a tri

1116
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:08,880
state area and you're gonna be you know, pissing in

1117
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:12,239
a Sloan valve, slong ural. So they invited us on

1118
01:06:12,320 --> 01:06:15,920
Mannheim Road, which is a fucking which is a piece

1119
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:21,760
of Illinois culture right there. But yeah, so we're gonna

1120
01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:24,559
we might, we might. There might be an upcoming video

1121
01:06:25,639 --> 01:06:28,840
out of at a Sloan valve. Yeah, you're no factory.

1122
01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:31,679
I don't know if they actually you know, forge the

1123
01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:34,159
valves there. I don't know. Maybe how do they make

1124
01:06:34,199 --> 01:06:41,239
the porcelain, but maybe Wayne Shorter Miles Davis. Yeah, Man,

1125
01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:45,639
if you got music recommendations, you could email them to me.

1126
01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:47,800
You could put them, comment them on a YouTube video

1127
01:06:48,199 --> 01:06:50,320
and I'll probably see it in screenshot it because I

1128
01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:53,079
read comments, you know, I will. I'll go through them.

1129
01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:57,519
But all that, all that shit is good. That jazz

1130
01:06:57,559 --> 01:06:59,920
that like funked. Oh there was a fucking great man.

1131
01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:04,320
There was a there's a really good uh let's see

1132
01:07:04,599 --> 01:07:09,000
where was it. There's a band out of England. War

1133
01:07:09,199 --> 01:07:12,239
is good too, old war you know, why can't we

1134
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:19,880
be friends? God damn it. Oh. Ezel's got a new

1135
01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:22,880
record out too. He's a rapper from Oakland, completely unrelated

1136
01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:24,760
to this musical style that we're talking about right now,

1137
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:31,559
but he's good, easy a l E. Oh the three Sounds,

1138
01:07:31,639 --> 01:07:35,760

1142
01:07:47,599 --> 01:07:50,639
this because I forget this stuff. Yeah, Ronnie Foster's always solid.

1143
01:07:53,199 --> 01:07:54,760
Damn I gotta I got a piss and I don't

1144
01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:56,800
even have the jar under the desk right now. You know.

1145
01:07:57,159 --> 01:08:00,440
If they're gonna get off soon, where does shit did

1146
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:05,199

1147
01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:07,039
is so great. This group is so great. It's like,

1148
01:08:07,159 --> 01:08:12,599
you know, they're from the seventies early seventies England. I

1149
01:08:12,679 --> 01:08:18,800
can't find it. My daughter likes the ojs. Yeah no,

1150
01:08:18,920 --> 01:08:25,239
I can't find it anyway. Oh yeah, old you like

1151
01:08:25,319 --> 01:08:29,319
all blues JB Huddle, old Chicago electric use like like

1152
01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:33,520
smoky west Side dive bar blues. I don't drink. But

1153
01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:37,880
I remember the days, you know, Magic Sam all that

1154
01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:43,720
shit man. Anyway, Yeah, I can't find this stuff. It's

1155
01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:46,199
got it. Such a good such a good song. Though.

1156
01:08:46,279 --> 01:08:49,840
I did it as the intro for the for the

1157
01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:53,399
Adam Black, the podcast I did with Adam Black. Anyway,

1158
01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:58,399
Ammel and the Sniffers, Oh yeah, they're great. All right.

1159
01:09:00,079 --> 01:09:04,439
Anybody got any other questions pertinent to the field of botany. Uh,

1160
01:09:11,079 --> 01:09:24,520
let's see. Yeah, I don't know. Exercise to protect your back? Yeah,

1161
01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:27,600
you got to. You gotta protect you do kettlebell swings.

1162
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:30,000
Ship otherwise your backs. You gotta keep that ship in shape.

1163
01:09:30,279 --> 01:09:33,920
You don't get your heart rate up. Uh, enormous kind

1164
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:38,319
of serious. What's enormous is kind of serious. Hold on,

1165
01:09:38,399 --> 01:09:41,439
I gotta piss. That can take a lead real quick.

1166
01:09:47,359 --> 01:11:03,920
H h all right, okay, I'm big. You know. The

1167
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:07,159
funnest part about getting the colonoscopy is getting to getting

1168
01:11:07,239 --> 01:11:12,079
to getting you know, clown around with the doctors and nurses.

1169
01:11:12,279 --> 01:11:17,159
You know, given the sensitive nature of the uh, the

1170
01:11:17,279 --> 01:11:21,760
sensitive nature of the procedure being performed. Is it true?

1171
01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:23,560
P is good for plants? Hey, you gotta diluted with

1172
01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:28,359
water though, you know, it's nitrogen, you really do, Damon ty,

1173
01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:32,760
he's always recommending pissing on his tricho. Serious, especially since

1174
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:37,119
so many cacti have have evolved tolerance to salty soils.

1175
01:11:37,239 --> 01:11:41,359
Why would cacti evolve tolerance to salty soils? Why would

1176
01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:48,279
cacti be more uh uh provision evolutionarily speaking for tolerance

1177
01:11:48,319 --> 01:11:50,159
to salty soils. Who wants to take a StEB at

1178
01:11:50,239 --> 01:11:56,119
that way? Why? Because there's salty soil is more common

1179
01:11:56,159 --> 01:11:59,399
in deserts because of the higher evaporation rates from the

1180
01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:04,560
heat and the over rainfall. So anyway, So deserts have

1181
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:09,560
evolutionary evolutionarily selected for more salt tolerance, at least compared

1182
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:18,359
to other plants. In cacti, there's smoking things arsenic in

1183
01:12:18,479 --> 01:12:20,960
their water. Yeah, plants can do anything. It's just good

1184
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:24,960
old natural selection. Yeah, nine part station two to one

1185
01:12:25,039 --> 01:12:27,600
part piss. Wow, that's right. Someone else was saying seven

1186
01:12:27,720 --> 01:12:34,960
parts water to one part piss. What am I filming

1187
01:12:35,039 --> 01:12:38,479
with Samsung? You gotta get off Apple, They're terrible. Get

1188
01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:41,159
off you know. I don't have I have very little

1189
01:12:41,239 --> 01:12:46,640
brand allegiance, but with Samsung, I they definitely trust them

1190
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:51,000
a lot more. I wish I could remember. It's goddamn music. God,

1191
01:12:51,039 --> 01:12:55,680
it was so good anyway, all right, well, I think

1192
01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:58,039
we're almost about done. Who wants to get off? Who's

1193
01:12:58,079 --> 01:13:04,760
gotta go? It's already one forty five native mosses. Yes,

1194
01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:07,560
I would especially desert mosses because I think they're fascinating.

1195
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:10,079
There's there's a couple that have beard There's like a

1196
01:13:10,159 --> 01:13:13,359
bearded moss that grows in West Texas. This fucking I

1197
01:13:13,359 --> 01:13:16,399
gotta take this vibing myself on now with this priest outfit,

1198
01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:19,319
you get a shirt or some ship. I thought it'd

1199
01:13:19,359 --> 01:13:22,640
be funny. I'm giving myself PTSD. I was raised Catholic.

1200
01:13:23,079 --> 01:13:30,960
Huh yeah, there's a bearded moss in West Texas, which

1201
01:13:33,119 --> 01:13:35,840
it's hilarious, but it's you know, it's again of just

1202
01:13:37,199 --> 01:13:43,760
natural selection in the desert where this ship was the

1203
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:49,840
song I'm still looking for. I'm fixated on this. I'm pissed.

1204
01:13:50,279 --> 01:13:52,319
If I don't find this thing, I'm gonna start throwing ship.

1205
01:13:52,920 --> 01:13:55,159
You know, this's it's really it's no way to be

1206
01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:04,239
all right, we'll leave, we'll we'll leave it when we

1207
01:14:04,399 --> 01:14:08,359
find what this? Oh was it the a one soul

1208
01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:12,680
playlist I made? Oh? Gil Scott hearing the Budos band.

1209
01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,760
Baby Oh, sugary Otis it's another great one. The original

1210
01:14:16,800 --> 01:14:22,760
writer of Strawberry Letter twenty three, that was it, simanned, Yeah,

1211
01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:26,079
that's a great fucking bit. This, this is some good shit.

1212
01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:31,880
That's a fucking great record. Holy hell, Oh it's good.

1213
01:14:33,399 --> 01:14:35,279
I forgot I make these playlists and I forget about

1214
01:14:35,279 --> 01:14:40,199
a one. So oh yeah, p funk anyway or fucking deelic?

1215
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:43,479
I think it was anyway? All right? Cool, Well, we're

1216
01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:47,279
gonna leave soon. Ever, think of coming to the Carpathian

1217
01:14:47,359 --> 01:14:52,439
Mountains of Romania. Lorenzo's deleting his message. What was that now?

1218
01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:55,800
I wonder, huh was it a ship posted dick pic?

1219
01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:59,560
Or I'm just kidding. You can't post dick pics in

1220
01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:06,800
a chant? Oh there you go. Yeah, Carpathian Mountains. Wasn't

1221
01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:09,199
it where Vigo was from? Did you see Ghostbusters too?

1222
01:15:09,640 --> 01:15:15,479
Wasn't Vigo from Carpathia? I can't remember Romania? Yeah I

1223
01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:17,520
probably would. There's some cool mountains there. I want to

1224
01:15:17,560 --> 01:15:22,680
go to Turkey. Eastern Turkey seems fucking wild. Used to

1225
01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:25,920
be a little hot, you know, in terms of you

1226
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:28,239
might end up in an orange jumpsuit, getting your headsowt

1227
01:15:28,319 --> 01:15:32,520
off on video, but you know, because it's but there's

1228
01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:35,079
some really cool stuff there. There's some really cool botanists

1229
01:15:35,079 --> 01:15:38,479
that I ran, that I followed. They're posting wild shit

1230
01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:43,760
all the time, just crazy species in genera, in well

1231
01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:49,279
known genera. But they're you know, anyway, look what I

1232
01:15:49,359 --> 01:15:55,479
had to make for the Jehovah's witnesses. See that. You know,

1233
01:15:55,640 --> 01:15:59,560
they're predatory here, they come here and they prey on

1234
01:16:00,119 --> 01:16:04,760
poor people. And so I put this up there. I said, no,

1235
01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:08,279
I stopped stuffing pamphlets in my door. Stop coming to

1236
01:16:08,359 --> 01:16:11,800
my door. It's creepy, it's weird. I don't want it.

1237
01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:20,760
Please please go away, please, eh, you gotta leave, sir, sir,

1238
01:16:21,359 --> 01:16:25,159
excuse me, sir. And then look it's fruits of uh.

1239
01:16:25,319 --> 01:16:27,760
This is castilla and MORII. I think these seeds will

1240
01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:31,520
probably the last one hundred years. Crucifixion throwing great desert plant.

1241
01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:34,319
I think I got one coming up in a pot outside.

1242
01:16:34,359 --> 01:16:37,159
I got these big terra cotta pots. One's got an

1243
01:16:37,159 --> 01:16:40,640
okatio in it for Carrie mcdou lie and some other ones.

1244
01:16:40,680 --> 01:16:42,279
And I'll just throw seeds in there, you know, because

1245
01:16:42,279 --> 01:16:44,159
that shit's gonna take a long time at Germany. A

1246
01:16:44,239 --> 01:16:46,479
lot of desert seeds take a long time in Germany.

1247
01:16:47,119 --> 01:16:48,880
If you don't you know, or if you unless you've

1248
01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:51,079
cracked the coat on pre treating them or scarfying or

1249
01:16:51,119 --> 01:16:53,119
hot water or smoke or whatever the fuck it is,

1250
01:16:53,279 --> 01:16:55,159
way you wouldn't be smoke creaming in the desert. But

1251
01:16:55,920 --> 01:16:58,720
and so the best way to grow some of them

1252
01:16:58,880 --> 01:17:02,359
is just get big pots and throw seeds in it

1253
01:17:02,439 --> 01:17:04,439
and forget about it, and maybe put like a top

1254
01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:07,239
dressing of gravels. It's a lot of people grow cacti

1255
01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:13,720
just straight sewing cacti outside morning sun or like a

1256
01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:16,520
shade cloth under the maybe probably in my climate because

1257
01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:18,640
it's so high, you probably need to sew them under

1258
01:17:18,680 --> 01:17:23,239
the canopy of a tree, like a light shade tree

1259
01:17:23,399 --> 01:17:28,239
like tepewahe or any of the memosoid a misquit would

1260
01:17:28,239 --> 01:17:31,760
be great, like if you have a big miskuit mesquite.

1261
01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:34,439
Some people really trip. They don't like the way I

1262
01:17:34,520 --> 01:17:36,479
pronounced it. I said, hey, you know what, it's tough.

1263
01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:37,880
You don't have to figure out a way around that,

1264
01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:40,359
because I'm not going to start not going to change

1265
01:17:40,399 --> 01:17:46,039
my pronunciation for you. Oh here's Banistereops this CAPII and

1266
01:17:46,159 --> 01:17:52,960
or barium specimen. It's a cool vine malpigiaceous. All the

1267
01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:57,920
malpiggy as have the same flower structure. It's wild. But

1268
01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:00,800
look it's got like little maple tomorrows. I need to

1269
01:18:00,840 --> 01:18:02,479
put that in your barium. I need to type up

1270
01:18:02,479 --> 01:18:04,159
a label for that and put that in your barium.

1271
01:18:06,359 --> 01:18:08,359
But yeah, so you get like a big clay pot,

1272
01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:10,960
you know, like a long one, like flower box style,

1273
01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:15,439
throw some a nice mixture of large grained sand. You

1274
01:18:15,479 --> 01:18:17,760
want the large grained sand, not the small grain sand

1275
01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:20,720
because that shit holds water and it will clump. And

1276
01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:24,239
then you put maybe some you know, bark fines whatever,

1277
01:18:24,399 --> 01:18:27,319
fine grain. You want fine grain. If you're doing seedlings,

1278
01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:29,800
you put in a big pot and then you get

1279
01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:31,479
some of that. They call it pea gravel. You can

1280
01:18:31,520 --> 01:18:33,520
get it from any of the big box home despot

1281
01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:36,800
or whatever the shit. And it's a little gravel bit

1282
01:18:36,840 --> 01:18:40,720
and you put one layer there's one pebble full layer,

1283
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:44,520
like one pebble deep layer on top of that and

1284
01:18:44,600 --> 01:18:46,840
it's the most and you could sprinkle cac dice, seeds,

1285
01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:50,800
astrophytem the barrel, cact die whatever over that, but it

1286
01:18:50,880 --> 01:18:53,079
can't be in full sun if you're in a hot climate,

1287
01:18:53,760 --> 01:18:57,880
because it'll just it gets too hot and then just

1288
01:18:58,119 --> 01:18:59,800
water as is and they'll come up on their own.

1289
01:18:59,840 --> 01:19:04,239
I've seen it happen through a ton of Hamado cactus

1290
01:19:04,279 --> 01:19:07,600
Hamata cantas. Here the Rio Grand Valley barrow, which I

1291
01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:09,359
would love to see. I mean, if I have to

1292
01:19:09,439 --> 01:19:11,720
go to a shopping center, I'd love to at least

1293
01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:13,439
see native plants, not even go to it. If I

1294
01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:16,560
have to drive, at least see native plants there instead

1295
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:19,600
of horticultural atrocities that crape myrtles. Why are people why

1296
01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:23,119
do you plant crpe myrtles in South Texas? Huh? Did

1297
01:19:23,159 --> 01:19:24,800
you eat paint chips as a kid? You got hit

1298
01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:27,279
on the head or something? What the hell? It's a

1299
01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:30,720
totally different climate from where it evolved, right, and just

1300
01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:35,279
so hot, requires so much irrigation, total nightmare. Okay, should

1301
01:19:35,279 --> 01:19:37,760
we go? Are we done? Here? Are we done? I

1302
01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:47,119
think this is done well? Whichie Mirablis and the habitat

1303
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,239
very dry habitat's the fog desert only grows with one

1304
01:19:50,359 --> 01:19:53,279
or two other plants. Ar three rura, which is like

1305
01:19:53,319 --> 01:20:01,880
a shrubby member of Amaranthesy and h and olated autistic

1306
01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:05,880
disregard Tony's earlier tantrum. No, don't don't disregard, you get disregard.

1307
01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:09,279
Actually Australia, Yeah, I got I gotta get in there.

1308
01:20:09,279 --> 01:20:13,159
I gottae into the Pilborough in Australia. Oh, the habitat

1309
01:20:13,159 --> 01:20:15,439
is getting fucked there too. It's not surprising. It's all

1310
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:27,000
anthropossetrism everywhere. There's no reverence or respect for the living world. Zujin.

1311
01:20:27,039 --> 01:20:28,840
I'm still gonna nag you on some of those questions

1312
01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:31,479
when we're I don't know, I didn't see. What are

1313
01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:34,319
you teaching at SUOS next year? No, I think they

1314
01:20:34,399 --> 01:20:36,039
got I was only doing that because they didn't. They

1315
01:20:36,079 --> 01:20:40,720
couldn't find anyone for their body department, and so I

1316
01:20:40,880 --> 01:20:42,720
said I would do it. I'd cover it. And it

1317
01:20:42,840 --> 01:20:45,319
was fun. I enjoyed it. I love teaching. It's great.

1318
01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:49,920
It didn't pay anything, but you know, it didn't feel

1319
01:20:49,960 --> 01:20:52,840
like I was working either. It felt like this. But

1320
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:54,640
you have to stay more on topic. I can't go

1321
01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:58,800
into like a rant about you know about how I

1322
01:20:58,840 --> 01:21:01,439
hate the fucking healthy chair. Well, I'm sure you could,

1323
01:21:01,640 --> 01:21:03,000
but you got to keep it short. If you do

1324
01:21:05,439 --> 01:21:08,560
I want to make sure to say free Luigi with

1325
01:21:08,760 --> 01:21:12,560
like the Super Mario Turtle nice. It would be nice

1326
01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:17,399
regardless of your opinions on it. You know, if you

1327
01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:21,359
really want to defend the health insurance coming to regardless

1328
01:21:21,359 --> 01:21:23,359
of your opinion, you got to appreciate that Super Mario

1329
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:31,359
character the turtles, right anyway? Uh Oh, the mounta Laurel

1330
01:21:31,439 --> 01:21:34,159
band in Texas didn't go through. I guess the CPA,

1331
01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:39,359
like once again, an accountant has no business writing legislation

1332
01:21:39,560 --> 01:21:41,880
on banning plans. It's idiotic. It's like a it's like

1333
01:21:41,920 --> 01:21:45,840
an auto mechanic crafting legislation that governs how someone should

1334
01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:52,800
do neurosurgery. That uh that, I don't want to be

1335
01:21:52,960 --> 01:21:56,159
diddled again. So I'm out someone's got some real cantic trauma.

1336
01:21:56,920 --> 01:22:02,239
Ah oh the Mountain Laurel banned. Yeah. So there was

1337
01:22:02,279 --> 01:22:05,359
a list of like forty or fifty different species of plants,

1338
01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:08,279
half of which are native to Texas that this guy

1339
01:22:08,359 --> 01:22:11,239
who's a CPA in the world needs CPAs. I'm not

1340
01:22:11,319 --> 01:22:15,720
saying it, but CPAs have no fucking business crafting legislation

1341
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:20,039
about plants, and these plants were due to get banned

1342
01:22:20,119 --> 01:22:25,880
because like Mountain laurel mescal beans is is. I guess

1343
01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:30,560
it's technically psychoactive, but it's really a poison. And so

1344
01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:33,960
probably before you you know, bleed internally or whatever, you

1345
01:22:34,079 --> 01:22:36,840
have maybe a hallucination. But this fucking idiot read It's

1346
01:22:36,880 --> 01:22:39,479
like he just read like plants are the gods. You

1347
01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:41,279
know that book that came out in the seventies about

1348
01:22:41,279 --> 01:22:44,479
hallucinogenic plants, but how you can smoke banana peels or something.

1349
01:22:45,159 --> 01:22:47,840
And I mean, he wrote this law that was banning

1350
01:22:47,920 --> 01:22:50,600
all these all these plant species that I'm sure he

1351
01:22:50,680 --> 01:22:52,359
didn't even know what the hell any of them were.

1352
01:22:53,199 --> 01:22:55,600
It was fucking idiotic. It would have made it illegal

1353
01:22:55,720 --> 01:22:59,399
to grow or possess any of these native plants. Heimius lissifolia.

1354
01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:03,000
That's a another one. Supposedly it's native here in South Texas.

1355
01:23:03,039 --> 01:23:06,119
Supposedly if you make a tea, you can, uh, you

1356
01:23:06,239 --> 01:23:08,439
feel something. I don't know what it's like. I don't

1357
01:23:08,479 --> 01:23:10,520
want to try. I'm a fucking grown ass man. I

1358
01:23:10,560 --> 01:23:12,560
don't need that. I'm not like in high school trying

1359
01:23:12,560 --> 01:23:14,479
to get fucked up. But also that's the idiotic thing

1360
01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:16,840
is when you make these things illegal, you make them

1361
01:23:16,920 --> 01:23:20,920
more desirable. If it's legal like peote is in Canada.

1362
01:23:21,119 --> 01:23:24,760
No one's dying to try it. They're just like, yeah, okay, cool,

1363
01:23:24,840 --> 01:23:27,000
cool to know you could feel something if you eat this.

1364
01:23:28,079 --> 01:23:30,800
But you know, if once you put it once, you

1365
01:23:30,920 --> 01:23:33,239
make it taboo. Now you've made a desire for it,

1366
01:23:33,319 --> 01:23:36,039
you've made it a hot item, and you've you've you know,

1367
01:23:36,199 --> 01:23:39,039
if it actually is like a usable drug like weed,

1368
01:23:39,279 --> 01:23:41,680
like something that people would actually use. No one's gonna

1369
01:23:42,039 --> 01:23:44,880
use heimia. None of these things are addictive. How someone's

1370
01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:48,199
gonna eat mescal beans? Like, yeah, maybe the same fucking jackasses,

1371
01:23:48,479 --> 01:23:50,840
same same the people at the same mental level as

1372
01:23:50,880 --> 01:23:53,600
the fucking idiot who wrote this legislation. Maybe they would

1373
01:23:53,600 --> 01:23:57,199
eat eat it. But it's a toxic plant. That tura,

1374
01:23:57,319 --> 01:23:59,800
that turro is supposed to be illegal. Great plant moth

1375
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:04,479
dollinated big white flowers does well. And you know, uh

1376
01:24:05,680 --> 01:24:08,159
disturbed thereas that was on the list they I guess

1377
01:24:08,239 --> 01:24:10,720
they took it all down. Someone talks some sense into

1378
01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:13,039
this fucking Yahoo and told them, you know, these are

1379
01:24:13,159 --> 01:24:16,079
native plants. You can't really legislate this. Not only that,

1380
01:24:16,199 --> 01:24:18,399
but no one's going out of their way. I don't

1381
01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:22,279
know why this guy did this I think. I don't know.

1382
01:24:22,399 --> 01:24:25,039
I mean Texas has still got some They've got some

1383
01:24:25,239 --> 01:24:28,239
weird hang ups. It's culture warshit, It's what I think

1384
01:24:28,279 --> 01:24:31,319
it is. It's not logic, like they've still got weird

1385
01:24:31,359 --> 01:24:34,880
hang ups about pot, Like there's these these drinks they're

1386
01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:37,479
trying to legislate pot. I think it started about kratam,

1387
01:24:38,520 --> 01:24:42,399
which is actually a cool plants, the ground up leaf

1388
01:24:42,479 --> 01:24:45,359
Matrogena speciosa ruby ac. It's a tree. I saw it

1389
01:24:45,399 --> 01:24:47,680
when I was in Costa Rica wasn't doing too well.

1390
01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:50,399
It's not healthy. It was being grown in botanic garden.

1391
01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:54,560
It's native to Southeast Asia, coffee family Rubac. It's got

1392
01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:56,720
the same flower structure as the plant they call button

1393
01:24:56,800 --> 01:24:58,800
willow here, which is also a ruby ac. It's like

1394
01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:02,680
a little globe of kin flowers and it plugs into

1395
01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:05,880
opioid receptors, but it's not it's not an opiate. It doesn't.

1396
01:25:05,920 --> 01:25:08,079
If you have too much kratam, you're going to vomit.

1397
01:25:08,239 --> 01:25:10,359
And that's it, all right, Just the same thing happens

1398
01:25:10,359 --> 01:25:13,239
if you have too much peyoti. All right, it's basically harmless.

1399
01:25:13,279 --> 01:25:16,960
It's highly addictive, like coffee can be. But you're not

1400
01:25:17,039 --> 01:25:19,920
gonna harm yourself on it, and it lower doses. It's

1401
01:25:19,960 --> 01:25:24,760
a stimulant and it hide doses. It feels just like opiates.

1402
01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:27,079
It's it. That's what sucks about it, because I hate

1403
01:25:27,119 --> 01:25:28,680
the way opiates feel. They get me the lauded when

1404
01:25:28,680 --> 01:25:31,399
I ripped my shoulder out in the hospital. I fucking

1405
01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:33,960
hate opiates. It also, it's opiates have killed a lot

1406
01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:38,840
of friends of mine. But but kratam junkies will use

1407
01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:43,439
it to help get off opiates because it feels like

1408
01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:47,840
op It feels like opiates if you have a lot.

1409
01:25:47,920 --> 01:25:50,039
But again, if you have too much, you will just vomit.

1410
01:25:50,159 --> 01:25:54,520
It's totally harmless in that regard. And so that was

1411
01:25:54,640 --> 01:25:57,079
what the legislation was about. And I think what they did.

1412
01:25:57,119 --> 01:25:59,079
They're not even trying to ban it now, which would

1413
01:25:59,079 --> 01:26:05,920
be completely tarted, but but they're trying to regulate it,

1414
01:26:05,960 --> 01:26:08,560
which makes sense, like you should be able to regulate it.

1415
01:26:08,800 --> 01:26:11,720
That's fine. I think that's mean, But trying to ban something,

1416
01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:13,800
it's just it doesn't work. It doesn't we it because

1417
01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:16,279
the first drug war worked so great, right, right, that's

1418
01:26:16,359 --> 01:26:19,640
the fucking logic here. Just the first you know, the

1419
01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:22,920
goal is to have an educated citizenry that's not so

1420
01:26:23,159 --> 01:26:26,600
stupid that they want to go eat the matter phylum,

1421
01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:30,520
Mountain Laurel or de Tura or anything else. You know, like,

1422
01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:33,920
if people are you want to have a populace, it's

1423
01:26:34,039 --> 01:26:35,960
educated and provided for it. They're not trying to look

1424
01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:38,199
for some way to fuck themselves up. All right. The

1425
01:26:38,279 --> 01:26:41,279
drug war was one of the dumbest things America has

1426
01:26:41,319 --> 01:26:43,279
ever done, next to the Vietnam War. I mean, it

1427
01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:45,520
was also part of a culture war too. I think

1428
01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:47,760
that's what the drug war was ridly about. It was

1429
01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:50,000
a culture work. It was about protecting the public. It

1430
01:26:50,159 --> 01:26:53,279
was racism initially for things like we eat and peote,

1431
01:26:53,359 --> 01:26:57,079
and then it was culture war against the hippies. Nixon

1432
01:26:57,079 --> 01:27:01,560
had a heart on for the hippies. And so anyway,

1433
01:27:01,600 --> 01:27:04,199
after fifty years of giving the cops an impossible job

1434
01:27:04,319 --> 01:27:09,079
creating a black market for illegal businesses and you know,

1435
01:27:09,279 --> 01:27:12,960
and boldening cartels, et cetera. After fifty years of that,

1436
01:27:13,840 --> 01:27:18,560
suddenly the prescription pharmaceutical companies move in and start actually

1437
01:27:19,239 --> 01:27:21,640
getting in on the heroin market and make a complete

1438
01:27:21,720 --> 01:27:24,720
mockery of the whole drug war that so many people

1439
01:27:24,880 --> 01:27:27,079
died for. It have been imprisoned for over the previous

1440
01:27:27,159 --> 01:27:30,640
fifty years and then annihilated more people than drugs have

1441
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:33,760
ever killed in the fifty years previous, which is and

1442
01:27:34,039 --> 01:27:36,239
it was all legal, and so it kind of made

1443
01:27:36,239 --> 01:27:38,079
a mockery of it. So I think, to like be

1444
01:27:38,199 --> 01:27:42,279
a de agent still you have to I mean you've

1445
01:27:42,319 --> 01:27:43,880
got to. I don't know how you could do your

1446
01:27:44,000 --> 01:27:46,319
job if you are sent out to like persecute someone

1447
01:27:46,399 --> 01:27:49,279
for Mountain Laurel or even pot or anything. Like the

1448
01:27:49,319 --> 01:27:52,439
cops here don't even care about pot anymore. I knew

1449
01:27:52,439 --> 01:27:54,119
someone who was a company. Yeah, they told us not

1450
01:27:54,159 --> 01:27:56,800
to even bother people for small amounts, as they should.

1451
01:27:57,520 --> 01:28:00,479
It's not a dangerous drug heroin Coco. This easy shit

1452
01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:04,399
meant stuff that like makes people behave like total assholes

1453
01:28:04,439 --> 01:28:07,800
and rob people. That should be something that that is

1454
01:28:08,079 --> 01:28:11,079
regulated and litigated. I don't, you know, I don't. I

1455
01:28:11,079 --> 01:28:14,479
don't have any problem with that, you know, and put

1456
01:28:14,560 --> 01:28:17,439
funds in that getting people clean. But this guy, I

1457
01:28:17,479 --> 01:28:19,079
don't know what this dude was thinking. I mean the

1458
01:28:19,159 --> 01:28:20,920
list of plants, I read through them and I was like,

1459
01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:23,079
half of these are native. You're trying to make these illegal?

1460
01:28:23,159 --> 01:28:25,439
You fucking kid just the money this is going to

1461
01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:29,960
cost the state is completely idiotic. You know, like there's

1462
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,199
no income tax in texts. All the revenue comes from

1463
01:28:32,199 --> 01:28:34,600
property taxes, which are really high. Where the fuck are

1464
01:28:34,600 --> 01:28:36,640
you gonna get the money to enforce this? This is

1465
01:28:36,720 --> 01:28:39,439
completely idiotic, and you're a fucking idiot. Go back to

1466
01:28:39,680 --> 01:28:43,439
the you know, taking bribes from developers and you know,

1467
01:28:43,600 --> 01:28:47,119
doing people's taxes whatever. This guy does. No offense to

1468
01:28:47,199 --> 01:28:51,720
this guy forget his name, Perry, Charles Perry. I don't know,

1469
01:28:51,840 --> 01:28:54,079
but luckily someone talked. I don't know if someone talks

1470
01:28:54,079 --> 01:28:57,279
sensing to him or what, but I guess they downgraded

1471
01:28:58,199 --> 01:29:01,640
this bill. It was eight building was eighteen sixty eight,

1472
01:29:01,880 --> 01:29:04,720
SB eighteen sixty eight. So now it just regulates for

1473
01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:08,399
tom and like Delta nine, Delta eight whatever, what's the

1474
01:29:08,520 --> 01:29:12,880
illegal the legal one? You know? That feels terrible anyway

1475
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:17,079
to do. Someone gave me Delta eight gummies four years ago.

1476
01:29:17,119 --> 01:29:18,960
It was just it was horrible. It felt it made

1477
01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:20,680
me nauseous and just made me feel out of it.

1478
01:29:21,319 --> 01:29:22,800
I mean, I don't even smoke we to begin with,

1479
01:29:22,920 --> 01:29:24,600
but once in a while we will be nice because

1480
01:29:24,600 --> 01:29:26,239
it will help you stretch or something. You can go

1481
01:29:26,279 --> 01:29:28,119
on a run, you get you go get a little tight.

1482
01:29:28,199 --> 01:29:31,479
You know, you'd smoke a joint late at night, do

1483
01:29:31,680 --> 01:29:34,880
some yoga on your floor, start talking to the dogs.

1484
01:29:35,239 --> 01:29:39,079
You know, it's great once in a while. This is

1485
01:29:39,079 --> 01:29:42,960
about how much I can tower it with pot yeah,

1486
01:29:43,000 --> 01:29:44,680
delta a right. Yeah. So they're trying think that they

1487
01:29:44,720 --> 01:29:47,159
were trying to make that illegal or whatever. But there's

1488
01:29:47,359 --> 01:29:52,319
there's a company that makes these THC like fizzy waters

1489
01:29:52,399 --> 01:29:56,039
that taste really good, taste like hops. Forget the name

1490
01:29:56,119 --> 01:29:59,119
of them, but it's it's like five milligrams THHC and

1491
01:29:59,199 --> 01:30:01,199
are able to do it because it's less than point

1492
01:30:01,199 --> 01:30:05,319
three percent by volume, and like five milligrams TC is

1493
01:30:05,359 --> 01:30:06,680
not going to send you to the moon. That's great,

1494
01:30:06,720 --> 01:30:08,920
that's fine. I think that I'd much rather see people

1495
01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:11,680
doing that than getting hammerd because Texas has a big

1496
01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:15,279
alcohol problem, a lot of alcoholics, you know, especially when

1497
01:30:15,279 --> 01:30:17,520
you're taught to numb your feelings and care so much

1498
01:30:17,560 --> 01:30:20,199
what other people thinking. You gotta you gotta drown it shit,

1499
01:30:20,319 --> 01:30:24,520
you know, so you know, tell you alcohol is very

1500
01:30:24,880 --> 01:30:27,600
important to the culture of Texas and enabling the repression

1501
01:30:27,680 --> 01:30:29,720
that the state is so well known for. No offense.

1502
01:30:29,840 --> 01:30:33,680
I love it. I'm just saying they really should legalize

1503
01:30:33,760 --> 01:30:39,279
just legalize weed here. Don't make it a political thing anyway. Man.

1504
01:30:39,359 --> 01:30:42,439
They could make so much revenue too. If you saw

1505
01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:47,319
all these like jacked up truck rednecks smoking blunts instead

1506
01:30:47,359 --> 01:30:51,199
of you know, drinking, uh fucking Keystone light, and you

1507
01:30:51,279 --> 01:30:53,680
see the bottles all over the place, all around the roads.

1508
01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:55,840
You know they're drinking and driving. We live in a

1509
01:30:55,920 --> 01:30:59,279
safer a safer state. People might wait at stop lights

1510
01:30:59,319 --> 01:31:01,159
longer than they other wise would, but they're not going

1511
01:31:01,239 --> 01:31:04,960
to be drunk driving. Got the du there's duy's man.

1512
01:31:05,039 --> 01:31:07,880
I see everybody here gets a duy because it's Texas

1513
01:31:07,960 --> 01:31:11,560
is unwalkable too, so you've got to drive everywhere, even

1514
01:31:11,560 --> 01:31:13,560
if it's to the store, it's like five blocks away,

1515
01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:19,000
and you know, so you're stuck driving, but you want

1516
01:31:19,039 --> 01:31:20,760
to drink. You want to drink it home. So everyone's

1517
01:31:20,760 --> 01:31:24,079
getting it's crazy, man, the fucking duys. But one of

1518
01:31:24,119 --> 01:31:26,720
what the du i rate is for Texas compared to

1519
01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:31,079
other states, you'll get it. You'll get hammered. Another state

1520
01:31:31,520 --> 01:31:34,279
that's got bike lanes, you can ride your bike to

1521
01:31:34,399 --> 01:31:37,239
the bar. You know, then you're just gonna fuck yourself

1522
01:31:37,319 --> 01:31:39,520
up if you crash into a light pole or something.

1523
01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:41,560
You're not gonna kill a family of four or something.

1524
01:31:41,600 --> 01:31:44,760
You know, take it from father santor got It's okay.

1525
01:31:47,279 --> 01:31:49,920
We're at an hour and a half. We got six

1526
01:31:50,079 --> 01:31:54,600
hundred and sixty six followers right now. I think that's good.

1527
01:31:54,640 --> 01:31:56,560
We'll go for another ten minutes. You've got someone they

1528
01:31:56,560 --> 01:31:59,520
want to talk about. Oh, he got T two Dewey's

1529
01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:04,319
twenty years ago, the uber back then? Did you quit

1530
01:32:04,439 --> 01:32:06,800
drinking or what? Did you read the writing on the

1531
01:32:06,880 --> 01:32:11,039
wall or you're still hitting it now? You know. Before

1532
01:32:11,119 --> 01:32:15,279
I got sober, I used to carry a h a

1533
01:32:15,359 --> 01:32:18,239
breathalyzer with me because if I had gotten a duy,

1534
01:32:18,560 --> 01:32:20,319
I didn't. I didn't want to fucking risk it because

1535
01:32:20,319 --> 01:32:22,600
if I got a DUY, I'd lose my locomotive license.

1536
01:32:22,600 --> 01:32:24,680
I was working for the railroad at this time. If

1537
01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:26,920
you get a duy, you're fucked. And you're working for

1538
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:29,119
the railroad as an engineer, which I never should have

1539
01:32:29,159 --> 01:32:32,119
gotten the engineer license to shape. Should have stayed a

1540
01:32:32,159 --> 01:32:35,119
conductor and a braakman forever. Those were the days, my friend,

1541
01:32:35,159 --> 01:32:36,960
you could get out, you could walk, you weren't tied

1542
01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:39,680
to the engine, right, You're waiting at a red signal

1543
01:32:40,039 --> 01:32:43,359
for the dispatcher to let you out for an hour

1544
01:32:43,439 --> 01:32:45,319
and a half, losing your mind. If you're an engineer,

1545
01:32:45,359 --> 01:32:48,159
you're stuck in that seat. That's so bad metabolically for you.

1546
01:32:48,479 --> 01:32:50,760
But a conductor can go take a fucking walk or

1547
01:32:51,439 --> 01:32:53,840
you know, do whatever, go look at stuff on the side,

1548
01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:55,880
you can do. You can botanize at work. I used

1549
01:32:55,880 --> 01:33:01,520
to botanize at work when I was a conductor. Oh,

1550
01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:04,640
this guy's saying that fucking chiggers. Oh my god, I

1551
01:33:04,720 --> 01:33:07,800
forgot there's chiggers in the southeast. Holy shit. What do

1552
01:33:07,840 --> 01:33:11,479
you do for chiggers? I don't Oh god, damn it. There.

1553
01:33:11,560 --> 01:33:14,640
I would rather take ticks all over my nuts than

1554
01:33:14,720 --> 01:33:21,920
deal with chiggers. They're horrible. Spray permethron. Now, yeah, I'm

1555
01:33:21,920 --> 01:33:25,359
gonna have to treat my pants permethron. And then is

1556
01:33:25,399 --> 01:33:27,159
there like a sulfur spray you can put on your

1557
01:33:27,199 --> 01:33:33,520
ankles for siggers? Oh my god, this is why they

1558
01:33:33,560 --> 01:33:37,800
gotta burn. This is what fire suppression's done, right, Learn

1559
01:33:37,880 --> 01:33:42,239
your land. Did a video on that fire suppression was

1560
01:33:43,159 --> 01:33:46,560
man when all these tribes were burning in North America

1561
01:33:46,680 --> 01:33:49,159
five or six hundred years ago. I'm convinced the main

1562
01:33:49,319 --> 01:33:53,039
reason wasn't to improve hunting grounds. It was to kill

1563
01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:57,000
all the ticks and the chiggers. If you could talk

1564
01:33:57,079 --> 01:33:59,000
to some of them, go back in time, say what

1565
01:33:59,079 --> 01:34:01,439
do you guys do this stuff? Burn of force. It

1566
01:34:01,560 --> 01:34:04,720
makes it look nicer. It's the way to maintain the landscape.

1567
01:34:04,720 --> 01:34:06,760
And they did this in the southeast. They did in California.

1568
01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:10,119
They were these indigenous groups. They did burn the prairie.

1569
01:34:10,520 --> 01:34:11,720
But I bet if you could ask them, why do

1570
01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:15,199
you do this, they'd say, because these fucking tics are

1571
01:34:15,239 --> 01:34:20,840
out of control, because these parasites, these scum, these fucking

1572
01:34:21,560 --> 01:34:25,439
these chiggers are terrible. I got bites all up and

1573
01:34:25,600 --> 01:34:28,159
down my leg. I got a rash so bad in

1574
01:34:28,239 --> 01:34:31,920
my I got a rash so bad in my ears. No, seriously,

1575
01:34:32,079 --> 01:34:34,039
the worst I've ever had, the worst to kind of

1576
01:34:34,079 --> 01:34:38,640
ever had with with any parasitic insect, was in Florida

1577
01:34:39,119 --> 01:34:42,399
and the sand scrub, which is incredible habitat. So you know,

1578
01:34:42,479 --> 01:34:45,279
I was crouching down, enjoying myself looking at stuff, taking

1579
01:34:45,359 --> 01:34:48,159
macro shots. Gotta change the lens, take a habitat shot.

1580
01:34:48,640 --> 01:34:52,840
Taking my time filming stuff. And I just that night

1581
01:34:53,039 --> 01:34:56,600
in the motel, I was just destroyed. I had seventy

1582
01:34:56,680 --> 01:34:58,880
siggar bikees all up and down my ankles. Suppose you

1583
01:34:58,920 --> 01:35:01,079
get sulfur for them? What do you do you get sulfur?

1584
01:35:01,159 --> 01:35:03,600
What do you get for chiggers? This is way you

1585
01:35:03,680 --> 01:35:06,399
got to burn everything. I go to the Southeast. I

1586
01:35:06,479 --> 01:35:10,880
want to burn everything in the right season, right. I

1587
01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:13,319
want to do it in an educated fashion that way.

1588
01:35:13,319 --> 01:35:16,359
Oh maybe I'll see Kyle Eiberger. He's up there now.

1589
01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:20,319
I'd love to see him. He's a friend. How far

1590
01:35:20,479 --> 01:35:22,720
is Kyle Eiberger from Atlanta? I don't think it's too far.

1591
01:35:22,880 --> 01:35:28,039
Maytive had that project. What do you do you get sulfur? Oh, yes, sulfur.

1592
01:35:28,800 --> 01:35:32,359
Oh it's a plain funer said, fuck, oh no, no,

1593
01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:34,279
that's not what you want. I don't know what do

1594
01:35:34,359 --> 01:35:38,920
you do for chiggers? Although we SASA have my property

1595
01:35:39,000 --> 01:35:41,640
limit up and enjoy the smell, that's great. What do

1596
01:35:41,640 --> 01:35:44,359
you gotta get rid of all the usache limit up?

1597
01:35:44,960 --> 01:35:47,199
Make biochar out of the small lambs? Because when you're

1598
01:35:47,199 --> 01:35:49,600
making biochart, you only want stuff that's like that big,

1599
01:35:49,720 --> 01:35:53,880
that big at least I do you know, make biochar.

1600
01:35:54,079 --> 01:35:57,199
Just burn it, you know, let it burn for a while.

1601
01:35:57,399 --> 01:36:00,920
Once it turns into like the white like very thin

1602
01:36:01,399 --> 01:36:03,720
low density ash, that's when you dump water on it.

1603
01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:07,560
And no, how do you kill them? How do you

1604
01:36:07,800 --> 01:36:11,880
keep them off of you? How do you find pockets

1605
01:36:11,920 --> 01:36:15,079
and native plants and destroy agricultural healthscapes? Go to Google Maps,

1606
01:36:15,359 --> 01:36:17,720
look at green areas on Google Maps in the regular layer.

1607
01:36:17,800 --> 01:36:23,600
Go to satellite images. Look at pockets of of greenery

1608
01:36:23,680 --> 01:36:28,199
on the satellite images that don't seem in super developed areas. Uh,

1609
01:36:28,319 --> 01:36:30,239
and then drive around, go out there. That's how you

1610
01:36:30,319 --> 01:36:33,000
find little pockets of native plants and looks the destruction

1611
01:36:33,119 --> 01:36:37,720
of the anthropocy Yeah, for the for the wisace. Just man,

1612
01:36:37,880 --> 01:36:40,760
appreciate the ship out of it. You want to you

1613
01:36:40,840 --> 01:36:42,520
want to reduce it. While you want to reduce it,

1614
01:36:43,359 --> 01:36:45,359
I mean you can cut it down. I love that plant.

1615
01:36:45,399 --> 01:36:47,640
I got one. I got one at this public garden

1616
01:36:47,680 --> 01:36:50,760
we started. It's a great plant. Musace is a great

1617
01:36:50,800 --> 01:36:52,920
example of a pioneer species. If you do and kill

1618
01:36:52,960 --> 01:36:54,720
your lawn, if you're killing your law plant in the

1619
01:36:54,880 --> 01:36:58,520
plant garden, plant can take full sun nitrogen fixing bacteria

1620
01:36:58,520 --> 01:37:01,119
in the roots, grows fast as hell, smells fucking delightful

1621
01:37:01,600 --> 01:37:04,520
when it flowers. It's been it used to be used

1622
01:37:04,600 --> 01:37:09,800
in French perfume. That's scent. The fruits look like dog turts.

1623
01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:11,560
It's kind of weird, but you know, I could roll

1624
01:37:11,640 --> 01:37:15,840
with it. Not like, what's the the ebony species Epinopsis

1625
01:37:17,079 --> 01:37:21,319
from Baja that produces dog shit looking fruits. That's great.

1626
01:37:21,319 --> 01:37:27,359
I would appreciate that. So what is that Eponopsis confinance?

1627
01:37:27,439 --> 01:37:30,399
I think? Yeah? Yeah, wait, wait, wait, Jacob, wait, you

1628
01:37:30,439 --> 01:37:32,000
want to get rid of the wsace? Is it just

1629
01:37:32,079 --> 01:37:34,560
too much? Okay, it just got a pathway. It's just

1630
01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:37,159
cut it and take a paint brush with some round

1631
01:37:37,239 --> 01:37:41,880
up and after a fresh cut, paint the roundup on there. Right,

1632
01:37:41,920 --> 01:37:44,239
you're not broadcasting it over the whole landscape. You're just

1633
01:37:44,479 --> 01:37:47,960
using it on the stump. Is that what the issue is?

1634
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:50,199
Is it re sprouting or what? Look at a paras,

1635
01:37:50,399 --> 01:37:53,159
the Paris of Texas. Where is it there? Yeah? The

1636
01:37:53,239 --> 01:37:56,840
Paris of Texas. Aaron Forceth, my friend Aaron Forceth from

1637
01:37:56,840 --> 01:37:59,279
the Zealand paint at that. She's the best botanical artist

1638
01:37:59,319 --> 01:38:08,479
I know. Anyway. Campophinique liquid works Oh yeah, Melo Luca oil. Yeah,

1639
01:38:09,439 --> 01:38:11,880
tea tree oil would work for chiggers. Maybe. I don't

1640
01:38:11,920 --> 01:38:19,880
know though, man native Chicago groundcover. Oh, that's out of

1641
01:38:19,920 --> 01:38:22,359
my lead. I don't think frogford would survive up there.

1642
01:38:24,880 --> 01:38:42,960
Let's see. Okay, we're gonna end this soon, all right.

1643
01:38:43,159 --> 01:38:45,720
You're making the dog's nervous when you throw these tantrums.

1644
01:38:45,720 --> 01:38:48,439
You're making the dog's nervous. You're flipping on. Uh. How

1645
01:38:48,479 --> 01:38:52,359
do you recommend starting to learn taxonomy? Biplant Systematics by

1646
01:38:52,399 --> 01:38:55,880
Michael Simpson. It's a fucking it support. It's like eighty bucks.

1647
01:38:55,960 --> 01:38:57,279
Get it. You'll use it for the next ten years

1648
01:38:57,279 --> 01:39:00,039
of your life. And then just start reading it and

1649
01:39:00,119 --> 01:39:01,880
don't read it front to back because that sucks. It's

1650
01:39:01,920 --> 01:39:03,399
not a fun way to read. Just crack it up

1651
01:39:03,399 --> 01:39:06,039
in the middle of nowhere and look at the pictures

1652
01:39:06,079 --> 01:39:08,720
you like and start reading the captions for those and

1653
01:39:08,840 --> 01:39:12,960
they'll start catching on. Right. Well, I'll do a reading

1654
01:39:13,600 --> 01:39:16,880
of an audio book reading of Plant Systematics. It's the

1655
01:39:16,960 --> 01:39:19,439
best fucking book. It was a real life changer for me.

1656
01:39:20,279 --> 01:39:21,880
It's not even here. Where the fuck did I put

1657
01:39:21,880 --> 01:39:23,239
it in? No worry, I think it's in the other room.

1658
01:39:23,279 --> 01:39:26,079
I got like three bookshelves, right, that's the best way

1659
01:39:26,159 --> 01:39:28,800
starting to learn taxonomy. If that's too much for you,

1660
01:39:28,960 --> 01:39:32,319
have Plant Systematics by Michael Simpson, who's a friend of mine.

1661
01:39:33,319 --> 01:39:35,760
Is too much for you, and it is. It's you're

1662
01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:37,600
going to have to be using the vocabulary in the

1663
01:39:37,640 --> 01:39:40,279
back of the book when you're reading that. But that's

1664
01:39:40,319 --> 01:39:42,680
how you learn. That's how you teach yourself. If that's

1665
01:39:42,720 --> 01:39:46,239
too much for you. A simpler the children's book version

1666
01:39:46,319 --> 01:39:48,840
of that, it's not really a children's book, but it's

1667
01:39:48,960 --> 01:39:52,520
like hits the concept homeharder is Bony in the Day

1668
01:39:53,399 --> 01:39:58,159
by h. Thomas Elpel Bonnie in the Day, and it's

1669
01:39:58,399 --> 01:40:01,800
just it just rams home the idea that the key

1670
01:40:02,119 --> 01:40:04,960
traits that you're looking for, the synapomorphies you're looking for

1671
01:40:05,079 --> 01:40:07,199
when you're trying to figure out what family something's in,

1672
01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:09,520
And you should always be asking what family it's in

1673
01:40:10,159 --> 01:40:11,880
when you're looking at a plant, because that will tell

1674
01:40:11,880 --> 01:40:13,960
you so much, what chemicals it might have, whether it's

1675
01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:17,239
poisonous or not, what pollinates it, because these are all

1676
01:40:17,279 --> 01:40:20,119
shared traits that plants share as a result of shared ancestry,

1677
01:40:20,159 --> 01:40:23,479
of it, of fucking inheritance, right, that's why we ask

1678
01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:26,199
what family something's and that's why we study taxonomy. That's

1679
01:40:26,239 --> 01:40:29,399
why genus and species names are important because they will

1680
01:40:29,439 --> 01:40:31,800
tell you that which is something. I remember when these

1681
01:40:31,840 --> 01:40:36,760
fucking idiots were attacking taxonomy. H five years ago, I

1682
01:40:36,760 --> 01:40:38,560
got into a Twitter fight with some white lady. No

1683
01:40:38,720 --> 01:40:40,079
fence to her. I'm not gonna bring it up. I'm

1684
01:40:40,079 --> 01:40:42,720
not gonna bring it up. So she looked that she

1685
01:40:42,760 --> 01:40:46,000
had a pouty fish. She looked very unhappy. She was mean,

1686
01:40:46,119 --> 01:40:49,359
she really mean, no fense to her. Blessed making cakes

1687
01:40:49,399 --> 01:40:52,359
for a fish anyway. And she was saying, all taxonomy,

1688
01:40:52,359 --> 01:40:55,239
it's colonial, you know, one of these like moralizing it.

1689
01:40:55,319 --> 01:40:57,119
I said it, shut up, shut up, No, it's not,

1690
01:40:57,520 --> 01:40:59,319
it's not. Did you know that If you go to Iran,

1691
01:40:59,560 --> 01:41:02,159
it's like an Ian botanists doing botany there. If you

1692
01:41:02,199 --> 01:41:04,760
go to China, it's Chinese bonuses or not. All because

1693
01:41:04,760 --> 01:41:08,000
the system was invented by European white guys doesn't mean

1694
01:41:08,399 --> 01:41:10,680
it's a bad system. You don't have to You're not

1695
01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:13,600
like signing off on everything that these fucking you know,

1696
01:41:14,359 --> 01:41:19,560
hooligans believed in. You're not signing off on like Linnaeus's

1697
01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:25,800
eugenics quasi eugenics theories by embracing taxonomic nomenclature. That's the

1698
01:41:25,840 --> 01:41:29,600
most fucking idiotic take, right if like if a if someone,

1699
01:41:29,800 --> 01:41:31,920
if someone you didn't like invented the wheel, would you

1700
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:34,279
not use wheels? Like? What the fuck? It's a great

1701
01:41:34,359 --> 01:41:37,560
system genus and species. You learn the genus name. You

1702
01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:39,399
don't have to know the whole species, and just just

1703
01:41:39,520 --> 01:41:43,359
learn the genus, right. If Homo sapiens is too much

1704
01:41:43,359 --> 01:41:45,960
for you, just learn the word homo. You know, well

1705
01:41:46,039 --> 01:41:51,760
you know what I mean. But uh but you know,

1706
01:41:51,960 --> 01:41:53,720
that's why it's like some of these worried. What I

1707
01:41:53,760 --> 01:41:55,560
got into was some guy down here, he's a friend,

1708
01:41:55,640 --> 01:41:59,000
but he was calling there's a plant called ameless bush sunflower.

1709
01:41:59,079 --> 01:42:02,920
That's the common name, completely ridiculous. It's not a sunflower

1710
01:42:04,239 --> 01:42:07,319
and uh oh god, what was that? What is on?

1711
01:42:07,520 --> 01:42:09,479
Is it simsia or is it? And I think it's simsia,

1712
01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:12,760
And so, you know, I was like, well, don you

1713
01:42:12,840 --> 01:42:14,760
just call it simsa Colvo like why are you using

1714
01:42:14,800 --> 01:42:17,000
common names? Like well, because the Latin names are gatekeeping.

1715
01:42:17,039 --> 01:42:18,960
I'm like, no, they're not gatekeeping anything. Give people a

1716
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:21,159
benefit of the doubt teach them the fucking genus name.

1717
01:42:21,319 --> 01:42:23,960
You normalize using the genus name, people will pick up

1718
01:42:24,000 --> 01:42:27,159
on it. On this bush sunflower, it's not even a

1719
01:42:27,199 --> 01:42:31,359
sunflower that that's got five times as many letters in

1720
01:42:31,439 --> 01:42:35,159
it as the word simsa does. Just you simsia, And

1721
01:42:35,239 --> 01:42:36,960
then you know what, if you know that's a simsia,

1722
01:42:37,199 --> 01:42:39,640
you'll see other species of Simsia and you'll know they're

1723
01:42:39,680 --> 01:42:42,560
simsias too. If you know the traits that put something

1724
01:42:42,600 --> 01:42:46,319
in the genus simsia, you know the filery orientation, the

1725
01:42:46,359 --> 01:42:49,279
fucking way the seeds look, whatever. So God, it just

1726
01:42:49,359 --> 01:42:53,279
drives me nuts. The insistence on using common names, and

1727
01:42:53,359 --> 01:42:55,319
that is some shit I was not prepared for when

1728
01:42:55,359 --> 01:42:59,479
I moved to Texas. So many people in Texas native

1729
01:42:59,520 --> 01:43:02,119
plants and no beef with any of them. I just

1730
01:43:02,199 --> 01:43:03,840
think this is stupid, and I wish they would start

1731
01:43:03,960 --> 01:43:10,039
embracing taxonomic nomenclature like professionals or people that respect the science.

1732
01:43:10,680 --> 01:43:13,399
So many people here just use common names, and so

1733
01:43:13,479 --> 01:43:16,960
many of the common names are completely ridiculous, like they

1734
01:43:17,119 --> 01:43:19,920
just know they bear no resemblance to the plants they're

1735
01:43:19,920 --> 01:43:22,960
talking about. There's other plants that have the same common name.

1736
01:43:23,239 --> 01:43:25,119
Do we really want to go this? I've ranted about

1737
01:43:25,159 --> 01:43:27,680
there's so many fucking times, right, and then when you

1738
01:43:27,800 --> 01:43:30,520
try to be like, let's use the genus name, they

1739
01:43:30,600 --> 01:43:32,760
get defensive and they start fighting with you on it.

1740
01:43:33,399 --> 01:43:35,039
I'm just trying to help you learn this is there's

1741
01:43:35,079 --> 01:43:37,159
a method to the magnus. Don't you want to do that?

1742
01:43:37,359 --> 01:43:39,680
Why are you gonna Why are you gonna fucking fight me?

1743
01:43:40,479 --> 01:43:43,680
It's like you're driving a car with square wheels and

1744
01:43:43,720 --> 01:43:46,159
I'm trying to give you a round one. Why would

1745
01:43:46,199 --> 01:43:48,399
you insist on driving a car with square wheels. It's

1746
01:43:48,439 --> 01:43:53,800
fucking idiotic. You know. This is not like about superiority,

1747
01:43:53,840 --> 01:43:56,000
It's just this thing works. So anyway, learn the genius

1748
01:43:56,000 --> 01:43:57,720
and the species names. Learn the genus name. You don't

1749
01:43:57,720 --> 01:43:59,000
want to learn the species name. You don't know how

1750
01:43:59,000 --> 01:44:01,800
to pronounce it a genus name. You're worried it sounds stupid.

1751
01:44:01,840 --> 01:44:03,520
You're not gonna pronounce it right. Who gives a shit?

1752
01:44:03,640 --> 01:44:06,640
Anyone who's gonna correct the way you pronounced Latin deserves

1753
01:44:06,680 --> 01:44:08,520
a kick in the balls, and they probably will have balls.

1754
01:44:08,560 --> 01:44:10,960
It will probably be a fucking man because anyone who's

1755
01:44:10,960 --> 01:44:12,479
ever done it to me has been a man. It's

1756
01:44:12,920 --> 01:44:18,880
you know, it's you go to Mexico. My friends that

1757
01:44:18,920 --> 01:44:21,439
speak Spanish, they don't pronounce it the same way. I

1758
01:44:21,479 --> 01:44:22,720
don't what am I gonna do it? It's not how

1759
01:44:22,720 --> 01:44:27,079
you pronounce it. Actually, it's not oster acey, it's astor

1760
01:44:27,199 --> 01:44:33,720
acy ostacia. I know what the fucking means. Huh pronounced Latin.

1761
01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:35,399
It said that, like, get the fuck out of here.

1762
01:44:35,439 --> 01:44:37,479
Where do you find something to get a hobby? Take

1763
01:44:37,520 --> 01:44:39,680
your medge stuck to your fucking shrink? And they said,

1764
01:44:39,720 --> 01:44:44,479
now you're getting me mad. Now I'm getting mad. Common

1765
01:44:44,600 --> 01:44:46,680
names come. I see. If you know, every plant that's

1766
01:44:46,720 --> 01:44:49,439
called cedar in North America isn't a cedar. There's no

1767
01:44:49,680 --> 01:44:53,680
true cedars native to North America. Whether it's Thuia, whether

1768
01:44:53,760 --> 01:44:58,640
it's camisit ris dioides, whether it's Juniperus, which is always

1769
01:44:58,720 --> 01:45:02,000
called cedar, none of none, None of them are true seders.

1770
01:45:02,239 --> 01:45:04,600
Seed dress only exists in northern Africa. You're up in

1771
01:45:04,600 --> 01:45:07,960
the Middle East, and I think, as maybe don't. Okay,

1772
01:45:07,960 --> 01:45:14,720
I'm gonna come down a little bit. Mhm Okay. He's

1773
01:45:14,840 --> 01:45:17,079
raised up on an easter sun and that's right, he

1774
01:45:17,199 --> 01:45:21,079
got he's you got him hated. See, you triggered his neuroses.

1775
01:45:23,079 --> 01:45:24,960
I gotta get I gotta fucking I gotta go plant

1776
01:45:25,000 --> 01:45:26,760
a bunch of cat guy that were dug up by

1777
01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:28,920
feral pigs. We got a bunch of ancestral cactus. We're

1778
01:45:28,960 --> 01:45:32,520
planning to get this public garden. God, the fucking hate

1779
01:45:32,560 --> 01:45:36,439
I feel for an animal, it's crazy. It's personal hate.

1780
01:45:36,520 --> 01:45:39,840
It's hate. It's butter fight hate. It's not just like well,

1781
01:45:40,319 --> 01:45:42,279
I don't hate him, I just gotta know, I fucking

1782
01:45:42,319 --> 01:45:47,239
hate him. I got a purple Air fifteen and anadized

1783
01:45:47,439 --> 01:45:51,039
paint that's got there. He's got bullets with the fucking

1784
01:45:51,159 --> 01:45:53,479
names of the pigs on them. We've named them. I

1785
01:45:53,640 --> 01:45:55,680
have not heavy here because he's not fucking the head

1786
01:45:55,760 --> 01:45:58,439
like me. I've named these fucking pigs and to kill him.

1787
01:45:59,520 --> 01:46:03,439
They've just destroyed ninety percent of the populations of Mammalaria sphirica.

1788
01:46:04,319 --> 01:46:07,000
I understand why he's rednecks shoot him from helicopters. I

1789
01:46:07,079 --> 01:46:09,640
would if I had that kind, if I had money,

1790
01:46:10,159 --> 01:46:12,960
I would put it into fueling a helicopter to go

1791
01:46:13,079 --> 01:46:17,640
shoot pigs. As much as it's how much I hate him. Yeah,

1792
01:46:17,680 --> 01:46:21,119
I did know there's an Oklahoma population of mammalaria. That's crazy, man,

1793
01:46:21,359 --> 01:46:24,279
that's definitely got to be a different ecotype. But it

1794
01:46:24,439 --> 01:46:27,119
is a bird dispersed cactus. The seeds are at least

1795
01:46:27,800 --> 01:46:30,159
you know you see the red fruits. O what a

1796
01:46:30,439 --> 01:46:33,680
what am I? You know we're going too long? We

1797
01:46:33,760 --> 01:46:36,079
could we could shoot the ship all day here. You know,

1798
01:46:36,199 --> 01:46:40,359
I enjoyed talking to you guys at seven hundred and

1799
01:46:40,439 --> 01:46:43,800
fifteen people watching this, So we'll keep going. Chill out,

1800
01:46:43,880 --> 01:46:46,079
Fire and you chill out, Marty. I want you go

1801
01:46:46,239 --> 01:46:48,720
take a fucking chill. He'll go s freaking at a

1802
01:46:50,359 --> 01:46:53,640
have a chocolate bunny. That'd be nice. I would like

1803
01:46:53,720 --> 01:47:01,800
a chocolate bunny. No, I'm not ordained. Yeah, I know.

1804
01:47:01,920 --> 01:47:04,119
I right next shoot the coyotes too. I love the

1805
01:47:04,800 --> 01:47:07,880
I love the coyotes. You know we'll go feed them

1806
01:47:07,920 --> 01:47:15,920
feral cats, you know? Oh god? Uh? Plant breeding, No,

1807
01:47:16,079 --> 01:47:19,640
don't have time for it. Through us on caribrey cream eggs, diabetes,

1808
01:47:19,680 --> 01:47:24,760
stay away, trye and green tea. Would you be interested

1809
01:47:24,800 --> 01:47:28,439
in anyone volunteering with you at Thorn Scrub. No. Some

1810
01:47:28,640 --> 01:47:30,399
ladies said she was going to get us a grant,

1811
01:47:30,439 --> 01:47:33,880
but then I never heard of her again. So I

1812
01:47:33,960 --> 01:47:37,359
don't know. You know, we've got to apply for some grants.

1813
01:47:37,399 --> 01:47:40,399
We've just everything on Thorn Scrub has been individual donations.

1814
01:47:40,439 --> 01:47:42,960
Oh yeah, why sure, hold on, let me go get

1815
01:47:43,039 --> 01:48:05,279
them mhm. And now we're really gonna wrap it up.

1816
01:48:05,319 --> 01:48:12,079
Buy a shirt, okay. See drawing by me of one

1817
01:48:12,119 --> 01:48:16,119
of the old growth payotes. That's all one plant, based

1818
01:48:16,159 --> 01:48:18,199
on a real life specimen at Thorn Scrub. It's like

1819
01:48:18,239 --> 01:48:21,279
seeing coast redwoods that are two hundred years old. Things

1820
01:48:21,359 --> 01:48:24,279
got to be two hundred years old. Easy, buy a shirt.

1821
01:48:24,760 --> 01:48:27,199
They're forty two bucks. I don't sell my own shirts

1822
01:48:27,239 --> 01:48:29,840
for forty two bucks. I sell them for like thirty two,

1823
01:48:30,039 --> 01:48:34,560
thirty five whatever. Okay, but this dead money just goes

1824
01:48:34,600 --> 01:48:37,600
to me. All the money from these goes to Thorn

1825
01:48:37,640 --> 01:48:40,720
Scrub Sanctuary. We need to get pig fencing. We're fencing

1826
01:48:40,800 --> 01:48:43,119
off another little portion of the land because we can't

1827
01:48:43,159 --> 01:48:45,199
fence the whole thing. That will cost proably twenty five grand.

1828
01:48:46,319 --> 01:48:48,359
We got one hundred and fifty acres. We're gonna need

1829
01:48:48,399 --> 01:48:51,319
to drill. We're gonna need to drill. Well, we're gonna

1830
01:48:51,359 --> 01:48:54,319
need another shade structure. We have one, but it's not enough,

1831
01:48:55,039 --> 01:48:57,560
and it's kind of high, and it's one hundred and

1832
01:48:57,600 --> 01:48:59,439
five degrees out there for six months out of the year.

1833
01:49:00,119 --> 01:49:02,319
So but the fencing, if you buy a shirt, the

1834
01:49:02,439 --> 01:49:06,000
money will go directly towards building fencing for some of

1835
01:49:06,079 --> 01:49:09,000
these old growth payotes. And there's there's and why be

1836
01:49:09,159 --> 01:49:12,159
fencing because of the pigs, right, Like we've already found

1837
01:49:12,239 --> 01:49:16,800
clusters of these Grandpa's knocked over. The pigs mostly go

1838
01:49:16,920 --> 01:49:20,119
for Mammalaria spherica because it doesn't have alkaloids in those

1839
01:49:20,119 --> 01:49:23,600
big juicy tap roots. They'll go for peyote when there's

1840
01:49:23,600 --> 01:49:25,479
nothing else to eat and they're curious and they'll like

1841
01:49:25,600 --> 01:49:28,399
bite into it, but then they'll just leave it. They've

1842
01:49:28,479 --> 01:49:31,439
caused massive amounts of damage, all right, And there's other

1843
01:49:31,520 --> 01:49:34,520
properties of budding ours that they're probably just eradicating, you

1844
01:49:34,600 --> 01:49:37,640
know where like the guys will shoot them, but uh,

1845
01:49:38,319 --> 01:49:41,119
you know, but there's there's I'm sure there's payota on

1846
01:49:41,119 --> 01:49:43,399
their land too, and Mammalaria spherica on their land too,

1847
01:49:43,479 --> 01:49:48,520
And all these cactus populations have experienced drastic reductions, ninety

1848
01:49:48,560 --> 01:49:53,399
percent reductions due to these feral pigs. And you see

1849
01:49:53,439 --> 01:49:56,800
the evidence all the time like we're you know, Mammalarias spherica.

1850
01:49:56,920 --> 01:49:59,960
You find all the time uprooted. They eat the root,

1851
01:50:00,119 --> 01:50:02,359
they can't eat the top because it's spiny, and then

1852
01:50:02,359 --> 01:50:04,600
they leave it. And then you can reroot the mammillary

1853
01:50:04,680 --> 01:50:07,119
sphere if you put it in the ground. I put

1854
01:50:07,119 --> 01:50:11,039
it in like a fine grained soil mix. So any

1855
01:50:11,239 --> 01:50:13,920
any money we make from that, I'm not taking any

1856
01:50:13,960 --> 01:50:16,239
money from this. Any money you make forty two bucks.

1857
01:50:17,479 --> 01:50:20,640
It's a five colored shirt printed by a company in Austin,

1858
01:50:22,680 --> 01:50:25,239
free shipping. If you want for the two we self,

1859
01:50:25,439 --> 01:50:27,359
for the fatties, you gotta pay an extra two bucks

1860
01:50:27,359 --> 01:50:29,840
because that's what the shirts cost. Two XL is an

1861
01:50:29,880 --> 01:50:33,119
extra two bucks. I'm sorry, but then I'll throw a

1862
01:50:33,159 --> 01:50:35,680
sticker too, And I got thorn scrub stickers, thorn scrub

1863
01:50:35,760 --> 01:50:38,760
Sanctuary stickers, nice vinyl stickers. They'll come with it too.

1864
01:50:39,239 --> 01:50:42,119
So the venmo is thorn Scrubs Sanctuary all one word.

1865
01:50:43,560 --> 01:50:46,520
It'll say hobvier when you donate, and then just leave

1866
01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:51,000
your full name and your address and your size, full name.

1867
01:50:51,039 --> 01:50:53,000
Don't forget that, don't forget your name. Don't forget the

1868
01:50:53,199 --> 01:50:55,199
zip codes. People forget the zip code that's a pain

1869
01:50:55,199 --> 01:50:56,319
in the ass and I have to look it up

1870
01:50:58,159 --> 01:51:03,800
and uh yeah, we'll mail them, know. So yeah, but

1871
01:51:05,439 --> 01:51:07,159
that's what we're doing to raise money right now, and

1872
01:51:07,199 --> 01:51:09,600
then that and just relying on individual donations. I guess

1873
01:51:09,640 --> 01:51:11,960
there's grants too, but I don't, man, I don't have time.

1874
01:51:12,039 --> 01:51:14,439
I'm like writing two books I've got I've got so

1875
01:51:14,560 --> 01:51:18,880
much time to learn how to write grants. If you

1876
01:51:18,920 --> 01:51:21,000
want a description of what Thorn Script Sanctuary is doing,

1877
01:51:21,039 --> 01:51:23,279
I think I put one on the website and the

1878
01:51:23,359 --> 01:51:27,399
Crime Pays website. But yeah, I mean, what we want

1879
01:51:27,439 --> 01:51:30,560
to do eventually is have a full fledged research station

1880
01:51:30,760 --> 01:51:34,359
bunk house, little, you know, mini lab, nothing big, but

1881
01:51:34,479 --> 01:51:38,560
something where people can do microscopy and DNA sequencing. The

1882
01:51:38,640 --> 01:51:42,199
soil communities that I'm especially interested in because they're probably

1883
01:51:42,359 --> 01:51:49,079
rich with unidentified species of fungi and bacteria. I mean

1884
01:51:49,119 --> 01:51:51,279
a lot of these plants they're growing and such. There's

1885
01:51:51,319 --> 01:51:53,800
such a it's such an extreme climate, especially like we've

1886
01:51:53,800 --> 01:51:55,680
got a section of the land that sell colleche a

1887
01:51:55,800 --> 01:51:59,239
barns so well collechi and volcanic ash, and that is

1888
01:51:59,399 --> 01:52:03,439
very thin, so wiled hard, it's got the conglomerate rock

1889
01:52:03,680 --> 01:52:06,199
the pebbles that have been cemented together with calich that

1890
01:52:06,319 --> 01:52:11,159
are so characteristic of the Goliad formation, and that's got

1891
01:52:11,239 --> 01:52:17,039
some really interesting plant diversity on it. No Moretonia gregy I,

1892
01:52:17,800 --> 01:52:20,560
but which is surprising because Mortonia gregy is a cool

1893
01:52:20,600 --> 01:52:24,279
member of cellustration, much more common in Wuevo Lanone area

1894
01:52:25,199 --> 01:52:29,640
in Monterey, like you know, the mountains outside of Monterrey.

1895
01:52:30,800 --> 01:52:32,800
But it only grows in a few places, always on

1896
01:52:32,920 --> 01:52:36,600
top of these rocky, thin soiled areas in Starr County.

1897
01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:38,600
But there's none on our land. But I'm sure we

1898
01:52:38,680 --> 01:52:41,319
could just throw seeds and see a few a couple

1899
01:52:41,359 --> 01:52:43,960
of years. But but yeah, but we got to raise money.

1900
01:52:44,039 --> 01:52:45,520
So you know, if you want to buy a shirt

1901
01:52:45,600 --> 01:52:50,079
through it once again, the venmo is Thorn Scrubs Sanctuary.

1902
01:52:50,840 --> 01:52:53,920
If you want to donate, it's Thorn Scrubs Sanctuary at gmail.

1903
01:52:54,199 --> 01:52:59,119
Thorn Scrubs Sanctuary at gmail, and you can email. You

1904
01:52:59,159 --> 01:53:02,319
can write us a emailing that too if you are

1905
01:53:02,439 --> 01:53:04,560
international and want to order a shirt. But if your

1906
01:53:04,560 --> 01:53:06,920
international is gonna cost another ten bucks for shipping, I

1907
01:53:06,920 --> 01:53:08,720
don't write them. I don't do don't get mad at

1908
01:53:08,760 --> 01:53:11,880
me and I don't set the postal rates. Okay, all right,

1909
01:53:11,880 --> 01:53:17,720
I think we'll end it. M Oh, your mother in

1910
01:53:17,840 --> 01:53:22,520
law is possessed. Oh yeah, you gotta do something about that. Uh.

1911
01:53:23,159 --> 01:53:26,159
No bunk house, bunk No bunk house like a spot

1912
01:53:26,239 --> 01:53:28,880
like if researchers come to visit us, they will have

1913
01:53:28,960 --> 01:53:32,800
a place to sleep inside, preferably in an air conditioned

1914
01:53:33,239 --> 01:53:37,960
research station because it's so brutal and hot. Oh oh,

1915
01:53:38,039 --> 01:53:39,640
you just saw a handling you give a presentation on

1916
01:53:39,800 --> 01:53:42,079
u V fluoresce and funkie. Oh that was nice. That's nice.

1917
01:53:42,520 --> 01:53:47,880
He gives really good presentations. Yeah. We don't need to

1918
01:53:47,960 --> 01:53:50,000
agree on everything. That's okay. See that's what a lot

1919
01:53:50,039 --> 01:53:52,680
of people forgot to do us. I just agree to disagree.

1920
01:53:52,840 --> 01:53:54,960
I don't care. You know, I won't talk to you

1921
01:53:55,000 --> 01:53:56,399
about the stuff you don't want to hear me. Don't

1922
01:53:56,520 --> 01:53:59,600
talk about the same you know you do the same

1923
01:53:59,640 --> 01:54:05,720
for me anyway. What parts of the water hemlock is

1924
01:54:05,800 --> 01:54:08,760
poisons the whole thing? All right? Quite a few members

1925
01:54:09,039 --> 01:54:12,760
of the Carrat family APAC are very poisonous, but obviously

1926
01:54:12,840 --> 01:54:19,319
some are edible too. Pictures of thorn scrubs sanction wary. Yeah,

1927
01:54:19,319 --> 01:54:24,479
I go to the Instagram. Uh what else misclosed with

1928
01:54:24,600 --> 01:54:27,159
vinegar for chiggers. I don't know, man, that sounds like

1929
01:54:28,760 --> 01:54:34,039
it doesn't sound like that's gonna work. Going to Europe

1930
01:54:34,119 --> 01:54:36,479
if someone sends me there, yeah, not for the time being.

1931
01:54:36,479 --> 01:54:37,720
I'd love to go to Q I'd love to go

1932
01:54:37,760 --> 01:54:39,319
to the Jurassic Coast and the UK. I'd love to

1933
01:54:39,319 --> 01:54:41,520
go to Italy to see if my ancestors are as

1934
01:54:41,600 --> 01:54:44,600
fucking nuts as I am. This is genetic. The shirts

1935
01:54:44,600 --> 01:54:49,399
are forty two dollars shipping included, all right, free shipping.

1936
01:54:53,079 --> 01:54:55,000
You know, this is just I'm not really a Catholic priest.

1937
01:54:55,079 --> 01:54:57,560
It's just something festive for Easter, you know, I just

1938
01:54:57,640 --> 01:54:59,520
read the writing on a wall. That's all, you know,

1939
01:54:59,640 --> 01:55:01,720
in a whole the whole Italian thing and being a Catholic,

1940
01:55:02,000 --> 01:55:04,439
you know, they go together. They go together like honey

1941
01:55:04,479 --> 01:55:09,840
and peanut butter. Right, Yeah, So anyway, forty two books

1942
01:55:09,880 --> 01:55:14,399
support us Thornscript Sanctuary Venmo. We don't have a PayPal

1943
01:55:14,520 --> 01:55:21,439
yet and the zealous Thorn Scrub Sanctuary at Gmail, but

1944
01:55:22,479 --> 01:55:25,199
every every bit of revenue we make from that goes

1945
01:55:25,239 --> 01:55:28,039
towards defencing right now and then after that, I think

1946
01:55:28,039 --> 01:55:29,520
we're gonna have to probably try to get a well

1947
01:55:30,920 --> 01:55:33,159
for the critters. We need to. There's no water out

1948
01:55:33,159 --> 01:55:37,439
there now. But we did get we did. Oh yeah,

1949
01:55:37,479 --> 01:55:40,159
we did get our five oh one C three nonprofit status,

1950
01:55:40,199 --> 01:55:42,880
which is great too. So we're official, it's recognized, the

1951
01:55:43,000 --> 01:55:44,800
tax deductible if you want to donate. I forgot to

1952
01:55:44,840 --> 01:55:49,520
say that too. I'm bad at I'm bad at it's

1953
01:55:49,520 --> 01:55:53,439
self promotion. But we are tax deductible, so we're recognized

1954
01:55:53,439 --> 01:55:55,039
by the I R S is a five out one

1955
01:55:55,119 --> 01:55:58,560
C three nonprofit. We don't pay ourselves. We just do

1956
01:55:58,640 --> 01:56:01,159
it for the love and because being out there is incredible.

1957
01:56:01,279 --> 01:56:04,880
And we had the comanches come down, was it three

1958
01:56:04,920 --> 01:56:08,000
weeks ago? That was cool. Quanta Parker's grandson came down

1959
01:56:09,039 --> 01:56:10,760
because they wanted to look at they wanted to prey

1960
01:56:10,840 --> 01:56:13,760
at the gardens. There's a lot of peyote parts of

1961
01:56:13,800 --> 01:56:17,479
the land, so that was great to have them. Really

1962
01:56:17,560 --> 01:56:21,960
cool guys. They gave us a blanket like a Filson's

1963
01:56:22,359 --> 01:56:28,760
blanket with the Comanche emblem on them. Sanctuary, It's our

1964
01:56:29,000 --> 01:56:30,960
The Thorn Scrub Sanctuary is O one hundred and fifty

1965
01:56:30,960 --> 01:56:34,840
eight or nonprofit conservation Property and Thorn Scrubs Sanctuary is

1966
01:56:34,920 --> 01:56:46,680
a is a nonprofit that we started, So what is

1967
01:56:46,720 --> 01:56:48,960
this guy? Random? But they destroyed the pre Columbian Americas.

1968
01:56:48,960 --> 01:56:51,199
I thought you support a pre What are you talking about?

1969
01:56:51,239 --> 01:56:54,359
Who destroyed them? Mister Rogers the irs? What are you

1970
01:56:54,439 --> 01:57:00,479
talking about? I don't know a website for the sanctuary yet. No,

1971
01:57:00,640 --> 01:57:03,119
we don't, and I we We're not probably gonna put

1972
01:57:03,159 --> 01:57:05,159
money into that unless if someone wants to help us

1973
01:57:05,159 --> 01:57:07,880
out and knows a way to set up a cheap website,

1974
01:57:08,640 --> 01:57:11,960
that would be great. But I'm already the square space

1975
01:57:12,239 --> 01:57:13,960
site that I have to work with with crime pays.

1976
01:57:14,399 --> 01:57:16,680
I get mad every time I see the name squares Space.

1977
01:57:16,760 --> 01:57:19,439
They rob me. It's a scam and I hate them,

1978
01:57:19,520 --> 01:57:22,039
so I don't want to have to deal with I

1979
01:57:22,039 --> 01:57:24,359
don't know, I know the thought of how do you

1980
01:57:24,640 --> 01:57:27,640
do you do a cheap website? You know? How do

1981
01:57:27,680 --> 01:57:30,119
you do that? I don't know because any who knows

1982
01:57:30,159 --> 01:57:31,840
about that. That's what I rely on you guys for.

1983
01:57:31,960 --> 01:57:35,279
If someone wants to set up a simple website for

1984
01:57:35,399 --> 01:57:39,800
Thorn Scrubs Sanctuary that gives about us, description and gives

1985
01:57:39,840 --> 01:57:42,199
a place to donate and photos of the land, that

1986
01:57:42,239 --> 01:57:44,479
would be amazing, but I don't want to. I fucking

1987
01:57:44,520 --> 01:57:46,880
hate squares space with a passion. I want to get

1988
01:57:46,880 --> 01:57:49,960
away from them so bad. I'm feeling my blood pressure

1989
01:57:50,039 --> 01:57:53,319
race now that I'm even thinking about them. I fucking

1990
01:57:53,359 --> 01:57:55,960
hate sports space. I hate squares space so much, you

1991
01:57:56,079 --> 01:58:00,880
know that. God that terrible. Ah. There're all about selling

1992
01:58:00,920 --> 01:58:03,479
shit too. I go to like it's just there. Everything

1993
01:58:03,600 --> 01:58:05,960
about using the app as a headache, everything is a

1994
01:58:06,119 --> 01:58:08,720
nightmare having to interact with them. You can get away

1995
01:58:08,760 --> 01:58:12,520
from squarespace to do it if you If you know

1996
01:58:12,600 --> 01:58:15,560
how to help us with a website for Thorn Scrub,

1997
01:58:15,840 --> 01:58:19,800
send us an email at Thorn Scrubs Sanctuary at gmail. Okay,

1998
01:58:19,840 --> 01:58:21,159
I really got to go, I should do. This's been

1999
01:58:21,199 --> 01:58:23,439
two hours. Thanks a lot for watching us. I really

2000
01:58:23,479 --> 01:58:25,800
appre you all are so nice, even as ship posters.

2001
01:58:26,399 --> 01:58:28,720
You guys are so sweet, the ship posters that take

2002
01:58:28,760 --> 01:58:29,920
the time every once in a while to tell me

2003
01:58:30,000 --> 01:58:32,640
go fuck myself, or says you know, thank you. I

2004
01:58:32,800 --> 01:58:36,520
appreciate that. I'm not I'm not ignoring the time you

2005
01:58:36,640 --> 01:58:40,439
put into thinking about me. It's spending on me. I'm flattered.

2006
01:58:40,720 --> 01:58:45,600
Gives me a little stiffy. Quite about that. Okay, thank

2007
01:58:45,680 --> 01:58:49,359
you everybody, and uh yeah, look for the book Concrete Botany.

2008
01:58:49,439 --> 01:58:51,000
In a year, I'll probably be talking about it a

2009
01:58:51,039 --> 01:58:55,079
bunch or some guy was asking about, uh, shade or

2010
01:58:56,520 --> 01:58:59,720
Midwest groundcovers, carre ex Pennsylvanica. If you're into the whole

2011
01:58:59,760 --> 01:59:05,600
wind pollination thing, Pennsylvania said wild strawberry Fregaria Virginiana. That's

2012
01:59:05,680 --> 01:59:10,239
probably good and it'll actually produce some food for pollinators.

2013
01:59:11,239 --> 01:59:14,680
Wild ginger Asterom canadense. But that is gonna like shade

2014
01:59:14,720 --> 01:59:19,479
that's in the aristolochiac that's in the pipeline. Really cool.

2015
01:59:20,239 --> 01:59:22,520
You know, look at two or three videos back. It's

2016
01:59:22,520 --> 01:59:27,239
in the pipeline family. Wild Ginger asarum again common names. Shit,

2017
01:59:27,399 --> 01:59:29,760
it's not a ginger at all, no relation to ginger.

2018
01:59:30,079 --> 01:59:32,479
It's got a funky smell of the leaves. That's why

2019
01:59:32,520 --> 01:59:36,680
they That's why they called it wild ginger. You know what,

2020
01:59:36,920 --> 01:59:38,880
The dog freaked me out last night because he was

2021
01:59:38,920 --> 01:59:40,000
in the middle of the night and I heard that,

2022
01:59:42,439 --> 01:59:44,720
and I just you jump out of bed. Oh shit,

2023
01:59:44,800 --> 01:59:47,239
get him outside before he pukes all over the floor

2024
01:59:47,800 --> 01:59:49,159
and I have to clean it up so much. Would

2025
01:59:49,159 --> 01:59:51,399
make an alarm clock with that, that noise with the

2026
01:59:51,520 --> 01:59:55,439
dog pew, the dog heating like pre vomit sound. Because

2027
01:59:55,479 --> 01:59:58,760
nothing will get your ass out of bed faster moss flocks,

2028
01:59:58,840 --> 02:00:02,399
flocks subulata juniperus horizontalis. These are all kind of shit,

2029
02:00:02,600 --> 02:00:05,119
I mean, not shit, but they're not gonna Nothing grows

2030
02:00:05,159 --> 02:00:09,159
as aggressively as frog fruit. If you could grow frog

2031
02:00:09,239 --> 02:00:13,640
fruit filing out of flora in Chicago, that's what someone

2032
02:00:13,680 --> 02:00:16,600
should do. Breed a cold tolerant filing out of flora.

2033
02:00:17,079 --> 02:00:20,319
That thing is fucking indestructible. God, that's one of the

2034
02:00:20,399 --> 02:00:23,079
best things about Texas, seriously, is filing out of flora.

2035
02:00:23,319 --> 02:00:26,880
And did you know there's a variety in the Auta

2036
02:00:26,920 --> 02:00:29,880
coamma desert. Probably a result of a bird dispersal, because

2037
02:00:29,880 --> 02:00:33,119
those are migration patterns from north to south. Probably a

2038
02:00:33,159 --> 02:00:37,520
result of a bird dispersal. That's way more hairer than

2039
02:00:37,600 --> 02:00:40,880
the uh than the Texas won and the Texas, you know,

2040
02:00:40,920 --> 02:00:43,600
because the hair is protected against strout moisture lost in

2041
02:00:43,680 --> 02:00:45,840
the leaves, and the Auta comma since it's so much drier,

2042
02:00:45,960 --> 02:00:49,800
not quite as hot as Texas, but because it's so

2043
02:00:49,920 --> 02:00:54,560
much drier. You look at this, it's like chalky mint

2044
02:00:54,600 --> 02:00:58,560
green leaves. That's that's the Chilean ecotype of filing out

2045
02:00:58,600 --> 02:01:03,439
of flora. It's called filing out of flora reptanes. That's

2046
02:01:03,479 --> 02:01:08,880
in northern Chile. Crazy, so cool. Well, you could see

2047
02:01:08,920 --> 02:01:11,159
how the environment is selected for a hair plant because

2048
02:01:11,199 --> 02:01:14,359
it's so much drier, it's so much more intense, and

2049
02:01:14,439 --> 02:01:17,600
there was the habitat that it was growing on. Look,

2050
02:01:17,640 --> 02:01:21,199
get that cracked mud and that things happy as a

2051
02:01:21,239 --> 02:01:24,960
pig and shit and no die back. The filing out

2052
02:01:25,000 --> 02:01:28,680
of flora ecotype, the ecotype in Chile, the Audacama desert

2053
02:01:28,720 --> 02:01:34,359
ecotype of frog fruit. Crazy. I still got some from Brazil.

2054
02:01:34,920 --> 02:01:38,880
We me and Dylan treated ourselves with ivermectin when we got, yeah,

2055
02:01:38,920 --> 02:01:43,600
the chiggers in Brazil. I should bring some for when

2056
02:01:43,800 --> 02:01:49,000
I get schiggers in Georgia now, because that's gonna suck horrible. Okay,

2057
02:01:49,279 --> 02:01:52,119
I gotta go. Everybody have aggression. Digo picks it back
