They'll post people are asking. 23 00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:43.400 You know, it's one person or their mother or nobody asking. 24 00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:50.840 Nobody really cares. Let's be honest about anything. Oh you 25 00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:57.239 didn't hear ahead? I said, nobody cares? Can you hear that? 26 00:01:57.280 --> 00:01:59.879 Can you hear the soundboard? Anyway? I'm a little all 27 00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:03.079 over the all over the map here tech wise. I 28 00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:07.719 noticed I do this and I inhale a lot. I 29 00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:09.520 make sounds now. I don't know if it's a thing 30 00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:14.560 of excuse me, this two indigestion is just part of 31 00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:18.199 my life now. I'll be forty two in October, forty 32 00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:22.360 one years old, and I just make these sounds all 33 00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:24.759 the time. My friends will be like, do you need 34 00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:27.319 an ambulance? Like why they go because you just went 35 00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:31.080 nine times in a row. I'm like, I didn't even notice, 36 00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:34.000 And yes, I'll take you up on that. Am belongs 37 00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:38.639 can can an ambulance? I know they can't. I was 38 00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:40.520 gonna take an an ambulance pulley over the camp. But 39 00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:44.199 did you ever pass an ambulance on the highway or 40 00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:49.560 freeway for our new American listeners listening. Every time I 41 00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:52.439 pass an ambulance, I'm like, can they will they will? They? 42 00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:56.240 I just picture the lights going off? Or do they 43 00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:58.919 like radio cops? Yeah, we've got you know, give my 44 00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:02.960 license late for some reason, I know they can't. They're 45 00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:10.759 just washed up alcoholic paramedics. And I say that because 46 00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:13.800 a lot of paramedics are you know, their first responders. 47 00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:17.159 They see a lot of horrible things. So a lot 48 00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:23.240 of them are drunks. No, that wasn't the right thing. 49 00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:25.800 A lot of them are drunks. I don't even know. 50 00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:27.759 I'm just I'm just making stuff up. I'm trying to 51 00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:31.240 be funny, loose or loose. This is a wikimedian. This 52 00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:33.080 is a comedy. Well it's not really a comedy podcast. 53 00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:37.960 I mean it kind of is. What's happening anyway, But yeah, 54 00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:40.960 every time I pass an ambulance, I'm like, it just 55 00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:46.400 happened yesterday. The world is falling apart, We're all gonna die. 56 00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:50.520 Thanks for watching, Remember to subscribe and like on YouTube. 57 00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:53.159 Imagine that was the whole show. I'm like a reverse 58 00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:59.680 Tony Robbins, like a Robin Anthony I'm trying too hard. 59 00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:07.800 My chat GPT's been gaslighting me. I I and I 60 00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:10.680 talk about AI with my guest today. We get a 61 00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.639 little bit into it, but my chat GPT will be 62 00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:18.040 like passive aggressive, and to touch on what we talked 63 00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:21.079 about with jaydy Er, it kind of mirrors you, and 64 00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:25.879 I realized, am I passive aggressive? Yes? I believe I am. 65 00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:31.399 But it'll be like I'll ask it something and they 66 00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:36.959 won't won't won't respond the right way, or won't get 67 00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:38.560 it or sometimes this is the thing. I don't know 68 00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:41.480 if anyone else will will will do this their chat gpt, 69 00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:44.199 because when you ask it, ask it something, you can 70 00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:47.279 see it analyzing the thing, analyzing, analyze it, you can 71 00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:49.240 see it working. But a couple of times it's happened 72 00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:53.399 to me where I've asked chat gpt something and it's 73 00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:55.120 like that's a good question. I want to take my 74 00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:57.199 time with it. I'll get back to you, and then 75 00:04:57.240 --> 00:04:59.160 there's nothing, there's no activity on the app. I can 76 00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:02.519 close the app open and it's just not working, and 77 00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:08.360 then I'll be like, hello, passive aggressive, and it'll be like, yes, 78 00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:11.759 You're right to be frustrated. You do this all the time. 79 00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:15.040 And you're right, though you're not wrong, but it'll throw 80 00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:18.920 like you do this all the time. I'm paraphrasing, but 81 00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:20.720 something along those lines. I'm like, oh my god, my 82 00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:31.160 Chad gbt's gaslighting me. Anyway, the uh, That's not what 83 00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.839 I wanted to talk about today. I don't even have anything, really, 84 00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:37.959 I just have some random notes here. I played cards 85 00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:41.480 with some friends the other day, and is there anything 86 00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:47.920 worse than relearning card or board games? There's a Ucher, 87 00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:51.920 for example, is a card game. I've played about, okay, 88 00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:55.000 without exaggerating, maybe seventy eight times in my life. Every 89 00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:59.079 time I must have been drunk, maybe every time I've played, 90 00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:02.720 and I've gone through periods of time where where I'm 91 00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:04.439 really good at it and I know all the rules 92 00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:06.279 and stuff. And we were trying to play the other 93 00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:09.800 day and I'm like what, And is there anything worse 94 00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:12.279 than your friends trying to explain a game to a 95 00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:15.680 card game to you? It starts off normal and then 96 00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:18.199 they just at one point they reach boiling point. They go, 97 00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:20.319 you know what, let's just start playing and you'll get it. 98 00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:22.560 And we've play we played like eight rounds of Ukra 99 00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:26.160 and I'm like, wait, does this, do anything like I 100 00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:28.560 have to show can we do around? And then then 101 00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:30.519 they take it one step further, go let's just do 102 00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:33.600 a round where we show our cards and they go, oh, yeah, 103 00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:35.160 you would have done this this. Then you can go 104 00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:38.000 alone on that. Then you tell your partner to and 105 00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:41.199 you signal them you going alone. And I'm still just like, 106 00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:46.279 You've never felt more dumb than than trying to relearn 107 00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:49.680 a game, because you know that in your in your 108 00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:52.959 mind and heart, you know you like the game. You've 109 00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:56.279 played it countless times. You go you want to play Ukre. 110 00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:58.560 You go, oh, yeah, I love youuker played it many 111 00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:02.680 many times. Good time times playing Ukre. And then they 112 00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:05.120 go okay, and then there's another person that maybe doesn't 113 00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:06.879 know how to play. Then they start explaining it and 114 00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:11.240 you just feel you just feel like did you ever? 115 00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:13.959 Were you ever? Like when you're a kid at the 116 00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:16.120 mall and you lose your mom for a minute and 117 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:21.000 you're like mom, that feeling is what it's like to 118 00:07:21.399 --> 00:07:27.800 relearn card games. You just feel lost in a Sears 119 00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:35.439 or woolco. But yeah, it's it's never a good idea. 120 00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:38.399 I like the idea of board games or card games 121 00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:40.600 because you go listen, we're not on our phones. We 122 00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:43.399 get to get to like the idea on paper, you go, 123 00:07:43.720 --> 00:07:46.839 no technology involved. We're gonna play these games. It's gonna 124 00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:51.279 be a blast. And inevitably it always goes with, you 125 00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:53.600 know what, let's just watch some let's put the game 126 00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:57.120 on it. We give up because it's not fun for 127 00:07:57.160 --> 00:07:59.399 the other people to that know how to play. It's 128 00:07:59.399 --> 00:08:02.720 no fun for them because they like we just we 129 00:08:02.759 --> 00:08:04.360 just want to play. We actually remember how to. I 130 00:08:04.399 --> 00:08:06.839 have no memory. I'm losing my memory. That's one thing 131 00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:12.720 I noticed. I'm getting older. I'm basically sixty maybe forty 132 00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:18.079 two in October, as I just said, and I just 133 00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:22.839 there's there's I lost my train of thought. What was 134 00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:27.920 I saying? Card games? Oh? Yeah, the idea? Oh geez 135 00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:34.240 uh memory memory loss. See, I just I actually just 136 00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:36.399 forgot what I was gonna say mid sentence as I 137 00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:39.240 was talking about memory loss. It's kind of like I 138 00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.679 had an aunt that was going for an Alzheimer's test 139 00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:47.639 and I was at her house visiting, and the phone 140 00:08:47.720 --> 00:08:51.759 rang and she picked up, and she's like, oh, oh 141 00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:54.879 was that today? Oh sorry, yeah, and she rescheduled the things. 142 00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:57.679 She hung up, She goes, I forgot my Alzheimer's test 143 00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:03.919 at the hospital. I'm like, well, that's that's the test. Anyway, 144 00:09:04.799 --> 00:09:06.960 I'm losing my I'm realizing now, and it took me 145 00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:08.639 years to admit. I used to always think I was 146 00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:12.039 good with names. You'd have told me your strengths in 147 00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:16.879 an interview, would have said, good with names, and that's it. 148 00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:18.360 That's all. That's all I bring to the table, and 149 00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:21.320 I'm not even I don't even have that anymore. I 150 00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:26.799 run into people that I've had intense life experiences with. 151 00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:30.919 I just ran into someone at the store. I went 152 00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:34.120 to high school with this person, saw them for a 153 00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:37.039 few years after. They were kind of like in my 154 00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:39.720 life in the orbit of the people I would regularly 155 00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:41.679 see and back then you would ask me this person's 156 00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:44.840 name boom right away, obviously I knew them. I know them. 157 00:09:45.919 --> 00:09:49.399 I just ran into him at the store. He was 158 00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:52.960 with his daughter. No clue what his name is, zero 159 00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:56.799 recollection And sometimes it'll come to me after the fact, 160 00:09:56.840 --> 00:10:02.679 but in the moment, it's a feeling of like, and 161 00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:07.159 you're using words like, hey, bro, what's that body, Hey ma'am, 162 00:10:08.679 --> 00:10:12.159 what's going on? Boss? Has? What is has? Who says 163 00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:15.759 has Why did they say, what's hass Is that from 164 00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:23.519 dukes of hazards? Dukes's hazards? Anyway, I forget people's names 165 00:10:23.879 --> 00:10:27.679 all the time, or name names. I'm a mess right now, 166 00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:31.120 and it's way past the pot. It's people have had 167 00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:34.759 intense experiences with what that in one period of time. 168 00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:37.080 You could have woken me up in the middle of 169 00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.840 the night. That's feel like I would have known. But 170 00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:43.200 it's no clue. I remember the faces very well. I 171 00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:46.000 remember events, and weirdly, I remember dates because I have 172 00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:49.159 this thing in my mind where I'll have these milestones 173 00:10:51.080 --> 00:10:56.279 that I'll remember nine to eleven is one. They're not 174 00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:59.000 happy milestones. I'm just saying I remember things vis a 175 00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:01.559 vis these events, and because I remember events like I 176 00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:03.440 have a photographic memory, when it comes to that stuff, 177 00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:06.840 I'll remember things and places and things we've done together. 178 00:11:06.919 --> 00:11:12.120 But just the name will escape me. And again it's 179 00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:14.559 people we've had intense experience your way past the point 180 00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:17.080 of no return to ask the name, You're like, sorry, 181 00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:18.799 remind me of your name, bro, Like we went to 182 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.519 Mexico for ten days. Are you crazy? Yes, a little 183 00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:27.440 a little crazy anyway, See, I just did the inhale thing. 184 00:11:27.919 --> 00:11:30.000 You'll notice I do this a lot. I've been noticing 185 00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:46.559 recently I'm not well. Yeah, a lot's happened since we've 186 00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:49.919 last had a show. There's a new pope, which we 187 00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:56.080 I talk about with uh with Jay Dire, my guest, 188 00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:59.840 and we uh, this one's American and it's kind of 189 00:11:59.840 --> 00:12:01.759 like when was it. When I was a kid, it 190 00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:03.200 was a big deal. I remember the Pope was like 191 00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:09.679 this entity, this like inhumane kind of like entity. And 192 00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:17.559 this guy, what's the Pope's pope name, Pope Leopold I 193 00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:20.759 think or something? Is it Leopold? I don't know anything. 194 00:12:21.480 --> 00:12:23.360 I just hit record and go, let's see what I 195 00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:25.039 have to what do see what? Let's see what I 196 00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:29.360 remember and talk about that. But anyway, but he's he's 197 00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:34.840 from Chicago and his name is Rob. That's his given 198 00:12:34.879 --> 00:12:44.759 birth name, Pope Rob. Wait wait, hang on, Pope Rob. 199 00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:53.759 I know it's a really humanizedes and and and he 200 00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:57.120 since his brothers has got two brothers, I think, I believe, 201 00:12:57.759 --> 00:13:01.279 and they've been doing the rounds, the media rounds. I'm 202 00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:03.279 a little late to this. This is I'm talking about 203 00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:06.399 topics since the last time I was on air, and 204 00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:09.240 but yeah, Pope Rob has a thing to me that's 205 00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:17.320 just hilarious as a notion. Just Pope Rob. I don't know. 206 00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:21.679 Am I the only one that finds that weird? Okay, 207 00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:23.919 I'm rambling. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna usually do 208 00:13:23.919 --> 00:13:26.840 a longer monologue. Well usually I'm alone. I don't have 209 00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:31.200 guests that often, specifically, UH usually have in studio guest 210 00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:34.480 here at Lemon Press Studios version three point Oh hey hey, 211 00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:40.279 but zoom to zoomed jayder In from Florida. I was 212 00:13:40.360 --> 00:13:42.960 nervous for the tech. I thought about it all night 213 00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:45.440 last night. I just would wake up. And I also 214 00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:47.840 had to because I haven't tested the zoom capabilities and 215 00:13:47.879 --> 00:13:50.000 everything in the new studio and make sure it all works. 216 00:13:50.039 --> 00:13:52.480 And as you know, if you've been following the show 217 00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:55.080 for years, you know we've had our tech issues on 218 00:13:55.080 --> 00:13:58.279 on air, which is always embarrassing. I get irrationally upset, 219 00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:01.240 and you you really peek into the portal of my 220 00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:07.960 soul and see that I'm a very upset person. Anyway, 221 00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:10.519 so I thought about it all night. Then I got 222 00:14:10.519 --> 00:14:12.320 to the studio two hours before just to make sure 223 00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:14.519 the zoom and everything worked and the sound and you 224 00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:16.759 can hear the soundboard. You know, I won't worry you 225 00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:18.879 with the details. And I dreamt that I had fixed it. 226 00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:20.240 I dreamt that I came to the studio and it 227 00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:22.159 all worked perfectly, and then I woke It was like 228 00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:24.879 a reverse nightmare. It was like all perfectly running smoothly 229 00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:28.840 in my dream, and then I woke up. Oh shit, 230 00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:30.240 I still have to go to the studio and make 231 00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:33.399 sure it all works so well. Further Ado, let's get 232 00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:37.240 to my guest, the very talented and interesting We had 233 00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:45.159 an interesting conversation, the one the only Jay Dyer. Okay, 234 00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:48.360 joining me now, very excited to have this guest on. 235 00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:51.759 You've seen him on the Alex Jones Show. He's a 236 00:14:51.799 --> 00:14:53.679 writer for the Sam Hyde Show. He's a co creator 237 00:14:53.720 --> 00:14:56.440 and co host of Hollywood Decoded. You've seen him on 238 00:14:56.480 --> 00:14:59.559 his numerous appearances on the Whatever podcast and on Piers 239 00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:03.200 Morgan Uncensored. You can also catch him on his YouTube channel, 240 00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:06.639 the Jay Dyer YouTube channel. Joining me, comedian and podcaster 241 00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:08.759 Jay Dyer is here. 242 00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:13.720 What's a dog? I have a little bit of imposter 243 00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:17.639 syndrome because I well, actually I don't have it. I've 244 00:15:17.639 --> 00:15:20.120 decided that if I just admit that I'm an imposter 245 00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:24.639 and pass myself off as a comedian to you fellow comedians, 246 00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:27.559 then I don't have imposter syndrome because I'm just honest 247 00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:30.759 about being an imposter. So I'm just calling myself a comedian. 248 00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:34.399 So the joke is that I'm not actually a comedian. 249 00:15:34.440 --> 00:15:35.960 But then if I say that I am, then it's 250 00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:36.600 a joke. 251 00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:40.720 Right right, it works. Imposter syndrome is a real thing. 252 00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:44.639 Is there any like in all of your success broadcasting, 253 00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:47.120 have you felt it that way too or just when 254 00:15:47.159 --> 00:15:49.039 it comes to being a quote unquote comedian. 255 00:15:49.519 --> 00:15:51.200 No, I just wanted to. This is something that I 256 00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:55.200 always wanted to do. And I've always felt myself to 257 00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:58.000 be more of a clown than anything else. I was 258 00:15:58.159 --> 00:16:02.000 class clown in high school, and I'm just always I mean, 259 00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:04.080 I may come off like i'd take myself very seriously 260 00:16:04.159 --> 00:16:07.240 or something like in debates or whatever, but in real life, no, 261 00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:09.639 I'm just kind of a clown. And I think that's 262 00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:12.759 probably what ended up kind of the more I did YouTube, 263 00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:16.080 the more that side came out, and then that's probably 264 00:16:16.120 --> 00:16:18.320 what led to you know, writing for Sam Hyde and 265 00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:20.120 that kind of stuff. But so I'd rather be doing 266 00:16:20.159 --> 00:16:21.039 that than anything else. 267 00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:24.679 That's the most fun, very basic question, elementary Chust, how'd 268 00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:26.320 you build your channel through one hundred and sixty nine 269 00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:27.919 thousand subscribers? 270 00:16:28.679 --> 00:16:31.919 I did a boomer the wrong way. That did the 271 00:16:31.960 --> 00:16:35.120 boomer wrong way. I thought. I don't know why I 272 00:16:35.159 --> 00:16:40.279 thought this back in two thousand and eight, that initially 273 00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:43.120 I would make little sketches and skit videos. So the 274 00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:45.639 first stuff that I put up was actually comedic stuff. 275 00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:49.480 And then I thought, oh, YouTube, this will be great 276 00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:54.440 to put my podcast on, which is audio. So no, 277 00:16:54.559 --> 00:16:57.600 I used YouTube totally wrong for like three or four 278 00:16:57.679 --> 00:16:59.759 years putting up audios. I don't know what I was thinking. 279 00:17:01.240 --> 00:17:04.039 I'm not a tech dude. I'm just not really into tech. 280 00:17:04.119 --> 00:17:09.160 But I built it up with audio the wrong way, 281 00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:12.119 and then that slowed the growth. And then I realized, okay, 282 00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:13.839 I got to not do that. I have to figure 283 00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:17.640 out and move into doing video, which I never planned 284 00:17:17.640 --> 00:17:20.000 to really do all this kind of stuff. But I 285 00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:25.200 think just eventually it was necessitated because you know, at 286 00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:28.599 one point everybody was blogging, and then everybody was doing audio, 287 00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:32.119 and then it became just straight up everybody's video streaming. 288 00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:36.559 It's so easy now, So I just gradually tried to 289 00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:43.119 move with the trend. But also I think if you 290 00:17:43.160 --> 00:17:46.559 cover a bunch of subjects, it's a you shoot yourself 291 00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:49.039 in the foot too. So I think if i'd if 292 00:17:49.079 --> 00:17:52.240 I had chosen one subject on YouTube to only do, 293 00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:55.440 I probably could. I probably could have grown quicker. But 294 00:17:56.599 --> 00:18:00.160 I think really just churning out stuff and going on 295 00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:02.359 big shows and big channels it helps a little bit, 296 00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:05.480 but it hasn't helped as much as I would have hoped. 297 00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:06.920 I would have hoped to have been at you know, 298 00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:09.440 quarter million or whatever by now at least or maybe 299 00:18:09.440 --> 00:18:12.599 half a million. But the thing I've noticed too is 300 00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:15.160 that you can you can be throttled, I think to 301 00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:17.680 a degree. I talked to a guy YouTube, like an 302 00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:21.200 insider dude that worked with mister Beast Dude, and he 303 00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:25.079 was like, yeah, if you talk about controversial subjects, your 304 00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:28.519 channel might not be shut down. But YouTube has this 305 00:18:28.599 --> 00:18:32.960 internal rating or something that you get flagged as like 306 00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:36.640 you know, ooh sassy, you know what I mean. So 307 00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:39.200 I think I've been in the ooh sassy category for 308 00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:41.160 a long time. Anyway, I don't know, I'm just rambling 309 00:18:41.240 --> 00:18:44.359 about shit. I just turned out stuff NonStop, I think 310 00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:48.599 was the key. I still haven't really figured it out, 311 00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:52.519 like I've been experimenting with shorter videos, you know, longer videos. 312 00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:55.039 I think it's just doing it NonStop. 313 00:18:55.960 --> 00:18:58.680 Well, I mean one sixty nine k is a is 314 00:18:58.720 --> 00:19:00.720 a shit done. And people can play about the YouTube 315 00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:03.720 thing and to your point about doing audio only, I mean, 316 00:19:03.759 --> 00:19:08.720 YouTube now is the number one podcast app or platform. 317 00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:11.839 Right when I started in twenty fourteen, it was iTunes. 318 00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:14.400 Back then it was an Apple, Apple podcasts. It was 319 00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:16.640 iTunes was the number one thing, and everything else was. 320 00:19:16.720 --> 00:19:19.200 There's a big drop off after that and now it's 321 00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:21.319 YouTube and now you start a podcast, you have to 322 00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:24.759 basically build a TV set, Like if you want to 323 00:19:24.799 --> 00:19:27.680 fully set yourself apart, you have to like go all 324 00:19:27.720 --> 00:19:31.599 out and you're basically creating a TV show. And people 325 00:19:31.599 --> 00:19:34.160 complain to you about the YouTube guidelines and so on 326 00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:36.079 about how you know you're as you said, like the 327 00:19:36.119 --> 00:19:39.160 oosasy thing. But it's like try doing it on your own. 328 00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:42.759 I mean, the the just the cost associated with hosting 329 00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:47.759 your own kind of server and all that YouTube is 330 00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:50.079 is unmatched when it comes to that, and people try 331 00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:52.039 to go on, uh, what's the what's the one that 332 00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:54.240 uh not rumble? What's uh. 333 00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:57.839 The other my space? 334 00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:02.000 Yeah? Yeah ship? Why can't I think of it? It's 335 00:20:02.079 --> 00:20:05.319 it's another video thing. But there's like less guidelines or 336 00:20:05.359 --> 00:20:07.000 censorship people are. 337 00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:13.559 There's rock fan, there's a bit shoot. I don't even 338 00:20:13.599 --> 00:20:16.920 know what the others are because I mean, you pretty 339 00:20:16.960 --> 00:20:19.240 much have to be here YouTube if you want to 340 00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:19.960 like make a living. 341 00:20:20.079 --> 00:20:24.559 So that's that's just it. And but let's get into 342 00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:27.200 it a little bit. I've I discovered you on Piers Morgan. 343 00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:29.880 I love Peers. I watch him all the time. I've 344 00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:33.839 always loved him because he's, uh, he's honest. He's kind 345 00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:36.960 of right down the middle. I mean, he'll take size 346 00:20:36.960 --> 00:20:39.720 and then if his opinion is wrong, he'll he'll correct himself. 347 00:20:39.799 --> 00:20:42.720 And he's truly an advocate for free speech. And I 348 00:20:42.759 --> 00:20:45.200 love watching his show for his reaction on things. He 349 00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:47.599 just loves it, like he'll have you and Andrew Wilson on, 350 00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:50.599 and he's got this smirk on he's just loving it 351 00:20:50.680 --> 00:20:53.160 like he can just so tell tell me a little 352 00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:56.359 bit about and the first the first time I saw 353 00:20:56.400 --> 00:20:58.839 you was just a few weeks ago, when you and 354 00:20:58.839 --> 00:21:04.279 Andrew and Wilson were debating to atheists. The two young 355 00:21:04.319 --> 00:21:06.960 guys in their twenties. By the way, side note, is 356 00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:10.160 there anything worse than a pontificating twenty year old Like 357 00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:12.680 they spew out these ideas that they heard for the 358 00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:15.039 first time, so they think it's groundbreaking, but they'll tell 359 00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:17.680 you shit, there's like, just do you can do anything? Man, 360 00:21:17.720 --> 00:21:20.799 We're just in a floating rock, you know. It's like, yeah, 361 00:21:20.799 --> 00:21:22.960 wait till you get audited by the government. Yeah, we'll 362 00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:23.599 talk then, you know. 363 00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:26.480 Yeah, Well, and if it's an atheist, it's like, you 364 00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:28.880 can do anything, man, We've got it all figured out. Well. 365 00:21:28.920 --> 00:21:33.559 But also you're just ponds com and everything's meaningless, so right, 366 00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:36.039 it's like I'm a god bro, but also I'm nothing, 367 00:21:36.079 --> 00:21:40.720 meaningless ponds com. So those are odd combinations. But yeah, 368 00:21:40.720 --> 00:21:41.160 I'm sorry, go. 369 00:21:41.119 --> 00:21:43.400 Ahead, No, no, that's it. So then I saw you 370 00:21:43.440 --> 00:21:44.880 on Peers and I kind of went into a Jay 371 00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:47.079 Dyer rabbit hole. 372 00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:49.079 Oh I'm sorry. 373 00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:52.480 That's when I messaged you and I said I loved 374 00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:54.359 your appearance on Peers and asked you to do the show, 375 00:21:54.359 --> 00:21:56.839 and you thank you again for doing this. This is fun, 376 00:21:56.839 --> 00:21:59.400 but tell me a little bit just behind the scenes. 377 00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:03.039 Kind of thing. How do you book a show like Peers. 378 00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:05.079 I'm just curious, how do you get on Piers Morgan 379 00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:06.880 and what it's like behind the scenes, Like do you 380 00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:10.160 when when you're waiting, does he talk to you? Is 381 00:22:10.160 --> 00:22:12.359 he do you have any rapport with him before the 382 00:22:12.359 --> 00:22:14.000 cameras are rolling or what's that like? 383 00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:19.359 Well, that one was because initially I think Andrew was 384 00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:24.039 supposed to do so I'd been on like a month 385 00:22:24.079 --> 00:22:28.720 earlier on Peers, and it was to debate this liberal 386 00:22:28.759 --> 00:22:32.960 activist black dude bishop who's not really he's like a 387 00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:34.960 bishop like TD Jakes as a bishop, Like you just 388 00:22:35.000 --> 00:22:37.240 call yourself bishop, you know what I mean? Like you 389 00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:40.359 know how like pimps are sometimes also like preachers is 390 00:22:40.400 --> 00:22:43.400 like I'm the reverend, you know, a T. Mackie Junior 391 00:22:43.480 --> 00:22:46.480 the third I got a church and also I got 392 00:22:46.559 --> 00:22:48.880 a house of ill repute down the road. So it 393 00:22:48.960 --> 00:22:51.000 was kind of like one of those guys. And so 394 00:22:51.039 --> 00:22:54.559 I think Andrew for some reason couldn't do that day 395 00:22:54.640 --> 00:22:56.319 and he was like, hey, do you want to do 396 00:22:56.359 --> 00:22:57.799 you want to fill in? I was like, yeah, sure 397 00:22:57.799 --> 00:22:59.279 I would. I would not going to turn down going 398 00:22:59.319 --> 00:23:02.599 on Piers Morgan, And we ended up debating like the 399 00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:05.119 most ridiculous things that day, which I don't mind. I've 400 00:23:05.559 --> 00:23:08.319 done enough debates over the years that I don't mind 401 00:23:08.319 --> 00:23:10.279
