00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:13.359
Ready, Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome

5
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:26.760
first DIBs on all our drops,
and a like minded group, but there's

6
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:29.320
a bunch of other cool communities there. Whether you're into. It's kind of

7
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:31.480
the new Reddit, but it's like
more interactive. I feel like, are

8
00:00:31.559 --> 00:00:34.119
more personal version of Reddit in a
way. If you're into crypto, you

9
00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:36.359
can find the crypto guys. If
you're into basketball, you can find a

10
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:41.719
basketball or fantasy football, or there's
each video game company has their own so

11
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:46.240
you can go in there. And
what's it called looking for a group LFG

12
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:49.840
looking for groups so you can just
find people to play games with and shit

13
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.079
like that. Not that I've duged
that deep into it, I'm kind of

14
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:58.960
I think I was the era that
grew up that was taught the Internet scary,

15
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:02.399
so I'm still a little scared of
the Internet, which is good.

16
00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:03.239
It's I think it's healthy, but
you know what I mean, Like,

17
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:06.439
I'm not like, I have a
couple of randos I met on there,

18
00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:11.359
and I'm about to meet someone with
Kyle in Vegas in October for twitch hon

19
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:12.760
We're gonna hang out with some of
our gaming buddies that we've gained with for

20
00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:17.920
five years and never met kind of
deal. But like just hopping in somewhere

21
00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:19.920
and say like, hey, what's
up? It is weird to me.

22
00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:22.840
It's not weird. I'm not judging
any of you, but it's weird to

23
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:26.239
me. You know, see,
that's probably not He's probably hopping in some

24
00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:29.200
weird fucking chats not giving a ship. Yeah, it's a little scary on

25
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:33.319
there, you know, identity stuff, Yeah, identity stuff, or who

26
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:36.760
the fuck you're talking to, or
because people steal catfish and lie. Yeah,

27
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:41.400
yeah, it all scares me a
little bit. I think an interesting

28
00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:47.319
flip on that is the LinkedIn experience
because it's just supposed to show everything you

29
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:51.719
do and don't, but there's no
like verification, right No. And what's

30
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:57.840
what's worse is you can tell that
someone's just added you, so that if

31
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:01.120
you if you accept that, they're
going to pitch you something. Yeah,

32
00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:04.799
yeah for sure. So you have
a bunch of them sitting there, and

33
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:07.760
then every once in a while,
just for sport, I'll accept one of

34
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:09.800
them to see what the pitch is
going to look like. The pitches are

35
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:15.159
never any good well, because like
a big like professional move on the internet

36
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:20.199
now is like to hustle for like
cold calls and gorilla marketing. So then

37
00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:23.840
everyone's going out and the same thing
on Instagram, right, I like fifty

38
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:27.639
dms a day. Tell me you're
a copywriter and you can make content better

39
00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:30.759
than I can or or whatever.
Like it's such a weird world. I

40
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:35.680
wonder when we get licenses on our
phones, digital licenses, which I think

41
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:37.400
who did that first? It was, oh I got them right now?

42
00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:40.800
Oh really? Yeah, I didn't
know co pilot project on one point two

43
00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:44.800
million people, I think because I
know it jumped in. Yeah, I

44
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:46.560
think Arizona did it first, and
then I knew we were slowly rolling out.

45
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:51.199
So I wonder when we do that. I don't know. There should

46
00:02:51.199 --> 00:02:54.159
be certain apps that would just verify
you through that. Yeah, you'd think,

47
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:57.800
right, and then you don't have
fish And then because I'm my credit

48
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.560
card fucking everywhere, who's going to
steal that? Right? When when you

49
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:02.560
go to the gas station and buy
a fucking Coca Cola. They asked me

50
00:03:02.599 --> 00:03:07.039
for ID on my credit card,
But when you're buying a thousand dollars couch

51
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:10.360
on the internet, they don't ask
my ID for my credit card. Yeah,

52
00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:13.960
correct, So then why wouldn't we
Yeah, tap all that in.

53
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:19.199
And I do understand the argument that
everything digital is a little scary. Again,

54
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:21.199
I grew up in that era.
Yeah, that's sick. That makes

55
00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:23.719
so much sense. Yeah, same
with keys. Obviously, I know Tesla's

56
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:28.479
you can use your phone and there's
the single use QR codes too, so

57
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:30.039
they generate a new and every time. That's smart, and that should be

58
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:36.919
for your car. Keys are kind
of obsolete. Yeah like that. I

59
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:40.319
might I have the fob that you
know you Yeah, mine too, But

60
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:44.599
it's still weird. Yeah, it's
still it's just a weird concept that what's

61
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:46.360
not all there. And I understand
then that raises the value of your phone.

62
00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:50.919
But there should be passwords and there's
yeah, yeah, I mean,

63
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:53.800
and at least iPhones are a little
more secure. Yeah, you know,

64
00:03:53.879 --> 00:04:00.199
yeah, they're theoretically there's something all
right. Side tangent over Our question is

65
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:02.159
from Dom Tom says this gets a
little weird. So I'm gonna try to

66
00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:04.639
keep it lightish. You can go
wherever you want and I'll follow your lead.

67
00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:09.240
But it could get dark, you
know, and I don't necessarily got

68
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:13.319
that at me today. Who are
the top five? And dom Buddy?

69
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:15.560
Not to roast you, but we
we need to work on our phrasing.

70
00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:19.480
Boys, like the ideal ideal bench
press from the other episodes a little weird,

71
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:23.319
and then this one, I think
we just tiptoe around it a little

72
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:27.720
better. Who are the top five
dead people you wish to you could have

73
00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:30.480
on your podcast? Why can't we
see like people that are past or people

74
00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:33.120
no longer with us, like,
you know, just a little something and

75
00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:36.000
the people, Yeah, dead people
is just I don't want a dead person

76
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:39.879
on my podcast. You mean someone
that's no longer here? Yeah, Like

77
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:43.879
that's this like zombie interview. You
don't want dead people. You want someone

78
00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:48.319
some people that is no longer live. We say, yeah, we talk

79
00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:51.680
about un aliving ourselves. You said, like people that are not no longer

80
00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:58.240
un alive. But dead people is
a little weird. My answers are probably

81
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:02.639
gonna be kind of boring, Like
they're not boring, but they're like you

82
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:05.319
want to go full five, full
five, or we're gonna go, well,

83
00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:08.800
we'll just throw him out because I
definitely don't have five. But like,

84
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:13.279
like Muhammad Ali, I've watched all
his interviews and he makes every interview

85
00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:15.160
or just crack up laughing. Yeah, So like there's just no way that

86
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:19.079
wouldn't be one. He's probably my
favorite athlete, even though I don't like

87
00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:21.680
boxing. He might be my favorite
athlete all time, just because I think

88
00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:26.439
he's so funny and he's so charismatic. Let alone all the stuff he did

89
00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:29.519
for, like his true beliefs,
and whether you agree with this beliefs or

90
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:31.720
not, I don't care. I
think just the courage of the time,

91
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:35.839
being a black man in America to
stand up for his beliefs. I almost

92
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:40.560
don't care about the war and the
beliefs and the you know, it's just

93
00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:46.360
the balls it took to be himself
in that era is insane, because even

94
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:50.360
now it's ridiculed. Again. I
don't care about whose beliefs or what beliefs.

95
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:53.079
Just the fact that he did it. I think it was cool.

96
00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:57.759
Let alone the racial tension that was
going fucking crazy at the time, and

97
00:05:57.879 --> 00:05:59.759
yeah, he would be hell of
funny. The other one would probably be

98
00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:02.439
my Jackson, just because I'm a
fan and he doesn't have a ton of

99
00:06:02.519 --> 00:06:08.040
interviews, but I've seen a couple
and he just kind of like talks about

100
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:09.920
whatever he wants in some of them, which I think is kind of funny.

101
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:12.279
Like someone asked him a question,
he'll just say something totally different.

102
00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:15.680
You know, he's probably all drugged
up, poor guy, but his life

103
00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:20.600
story is absolutely insane for a trillion
reasons. So that would probably be another

104
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:24.360
one. And I'm a huge fan
of his music. But that's why I

105
00:06:24.439 --> 00:06:26.360
said, my answer is gonna be
kind of lame, because there's just people

106
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:30.560
I'm fans of, Yeah, which
I guess isn't a bad interview, and

107
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:33.639
it's and in those times, I
feel like interviews were more rare. Now

108
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:38.360
anyone who's like quote unquote famous,
you can find a billion interviews, but

109
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:41.319
like content wasn't a thing there.
So Muhammad Ali went on a couple,

110
00:06:41.800 --> 00:06:45.360
you know, sports interviews and that's
it, And Michael Jackson was pretty fucking

111
00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:50.639
private. Yeah. Yeah, Well
then if you don't talk, then you

112
00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:54.240
don't have to keep your story consistent. Ever, so that's true too.

113
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:59.920
That is true too when I was
a kid, there was a song called

114
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:08.800
Old Abraham Martin and John So Abraham
Lincoln Martin, Luther King, John F.

115
00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:14.519
Kennedy. Yeah. JFK would be
a hell of him one. Yeah,

116
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:16.279
yeah, for sure. I don't
know if I want to talk to

117
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:20.920
abe Ah he would I mean,
obviously he's got some stories, but I

118
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:25.839
think it would be very long because
because there he would have a lot to

119
00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:30.120
say, and he was known for
telling like big stories. It would be

120
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:33.000
interesting to just grab aide and throw
him in the White House. Now,

121
00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:35.839
oh, I have no idea what
he would do. Say. We could

122
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:39.399
like interject a little bit of modern
knowledge to him, right, so he

123
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:42.079
understands the internet, we can like
you know, may tricks him. So

124
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:45.319
we could teach him some ship and
then just let him yeah yeah yeah,

125
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:47.399
like that just learned his in ten
minutes and then just throw him in office.

126
00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:53.759
Because everyone like says all these obviously
hindsights a bitch, but like all

127
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:57.240
these presidents were so great, like
a like his issues were different than our

128
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:01.720
issues. Was he great? Uh? What were the other options? The

129
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:05.639
other options were people that can't read
he I mean, he was He's remembered

130
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:07.120
as being great. There are plenty
of things he did that were not great.

131
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:09.600
Yeah, of course, there's no
human that's perfect. And I mean,

132
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:11.800
but I'm just saying, like as
a leader, like is he a

133
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:16.160
good leader? You don't know,
But if you throw him an office now,

134
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:20.319
I like, you're so ridiculed in
the world now because of the interviews,

135
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:24.000
because of the internet. Yeah,
because of the complexity of all of

136
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:26.240
it, from politics to sport.
There's like no winners. You can't win.

137
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:30.240
You would almost it would almost have
to be if you're gonna bring back

138
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:35.919
a dead president, it almost has
to be linked because Lincoln survived until he

139
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:41.200
didn't the most divisive time in our
history, and this is a very divisive

140
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:45.919
time. So j K right,
yeah, he might have some insight if

141
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:48.600
we had somebody that maybe could tie
some things together. I want to say

142
00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:52.320
to JFK, who shot you?
Yeah, you know, I don't know,

143
00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:56.039
probably doesn't know he did. You
see this secret service guy just came

144
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:58.600
out. Yeah, the guy who
picked up the bullet that was actually in

145
00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:03.480
the car. Are that who knows
where it went or where it came from

146
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:09.039
or mummified aliens? Yeah? That
that's unconvincing. That's super unconvincing only because

147
00:09:09.080 --> 00:09:13.480
of twenty fifteen that guy I was
like caught on fraud. Yeah, yeah,

148
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:15.919
but I do kind of like it. Yeah, it's like, what,

149
00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:18.080
well, there, we can DNA
test them, right, there's got

150
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:22.440
to be DNA and that little shit
if he was well, I mean purportedly

151
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:26.360
they already did, but they said, you know who the guy Chopo.

152
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:31.519
Yeah, yeah, that guy whatever
Chapo fucking testing them. But I need

153
00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:35.480
Stanford or someone like semi trust it's
a thousand years old or more. Yeah,

154
00:09:35.559 --> 00:09:39.360
yeah, I think said supposedly,
like I don't know how they're just

155
00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:41.559
they could have built the Pyramids.
I don't know. But really it's a

156
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:46.440
classic gray what it called a gray
you know, just that and it's comes

157
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:52.039
entirely from folklore and like nobody's proved
that an alien looks like that if an

158
00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:54.200
alien exists at all, fortunate.
All right, So are those your three

159
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.799
then for sure? Yeah, you
can't really go wrong there. Those are

160
00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:03.080
my three. I will listen if
you talk to to Muhammad Ali for sure.

161
00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:09.000
Yeah, it's so good. I
don't even know other ones like obviously,

162
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:11.759
like like a Kobe one would be
sick. All his interviews. He

163
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:15.039
didn't do as many as he was
in the Spotlight, and his are always

164
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:18.840
so good and like motivating. Yeah, Kobe, I've definitely listened to talking

165
00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:20.159
to Kobe. Yeah, like Jordan, I've just heard all of them,

166
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:24.000
and the last dance was like the
longest good interview. So I don't know

167
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:26.600
if I want to repeat that.
And Kobe. There's a bunch of little

168
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:31.720
ones. Maybe Tupac Tupac, Yeah, also who shot Yeah, Tupac will

169
00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:33.879
probably be a pretty good one.
Yeah, I mean, fucker was twenty

170
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:39.000
four. That's crazy, there was
a Well to me, the real appeal

171
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:43.559
to talking to these people who are
dead is that they're dead, and so

172
00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:46.399
there's no repercussion for them to be
honest about what happened in their lives.

173
00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:50.720
Yeah that's true too. Yeah,
or they're real thoughts or anything, Yeah

174
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:52.639
for sure. Yeah. Do they
go back to being dead after we talked

175
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:56.759
to him? Oh? Yeah,
I think so. And then they go

176
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:00.279
away? Yeah, what's that the
Christmas movie that spirits coming? Then they

177
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:03.919
just die and we're back in Little
Timmy, Little Tommy Christmas Christmas Carol.

178
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:07.399
Yes, Yeah, it's kind of
like Christmas Care, kind of like Christmas

179
00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:09.679
Care, kind of like ghosts of
Christmas past. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

180
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.600
yeah, maybe those are mine then
well yeah, Tupac for sure,

181
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:16.919
Kobe probably would I have one more? You got two more. I have

182
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:20.639
two more, And I don't know
who they would be. Hey, from

183
00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:26.919
an industry standpoint, I have a
morbid fascination with the idea that you could

184
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:31.639
talk to rich Piana and he would
be honest about everything that was going on

185
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:37.240
in his life. And he's a
nor cowboy and and he you know,

186
00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:41.080
everything that he was involved in in
the people that he was involved with that

187
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:45.159
I mean, maybe there's no story
there. I would bet that there is.

188
00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:48.759
Yeah, very least, you're gonna
have a funny chat. He's an

189
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:52.919
odd one to make like YouTube fame, Like obviously he's extreme and YouTube and

190
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:56.279
social media likes extreme. But here's
a little bit like before his time and

191
00:11:56.360 --> 00:12:01.559
a sense in social media esk in
some ways just it would be just interesting

192
00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:05.279
since and I'm saying that, but
since I stumbled into his first wedding accidentally,

193
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:09.480
yea in a hotel, in a
hotel in Vegas. And then beyond

194
00:12:09.559 --> 00:12:13.960
that, I'm not sure trying to
think of who's dead, Yeah, everybody's

195
00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:18.919
dead. Maybe some like a.
It's very popular right now, like Marcus

196
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:22.360
Aurelius or something. Oh, i'll
be very interesting. I don't know if

197
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:26.240
we speak the same language. But
again, if we could up the greatest

198
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:30.519
brain to talk, yeah, yeah, I understand like slang and shit,

199
00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:33.000
he'd probably be pretty good. Because
I wonder, like cu Stoicism is just

200
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:37.480
so popular right now, like it's
so hot, Like I wonder what his

201
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:43.120
real thoughts are philosophically or Aristotle or
yeah, yeah, some of them supposed

202
00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:46.320
that fucking geniuses. They could have
been idiots too, right, Like what

203
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:48.639
do we know they didn't have ghost
writers or they didn't have you know,

204
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:52.159
Da Vinci. Yeah, yeah,
that'd be amazing, that would be totally

205
00:12:52.159 --> 00:12:56.320
amazing. Yeah Da Vinci. Shit. Even some of like the Mozarts and

206
00:12:56.320 --> 00:13:01.360
stuff, they could speak English.
Yeah, I don't know. I don't

207
00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:03.000
know. I don't know what people
expect from that answer either, though probably

208
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:07.799
the Muhammad Ali's in the Kobe's more
pop culture probably so. But so they're

209
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:11.759
good. You can't really go like
Muhamad Ali. I've seen so many interviews

210
00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:16.879
of him and I just fucking die
laughing every time. Maybe maybe go a

211
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:20.720
little further back in American history and
you know, just pick one of the

212
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:24.360
founding fathers and get back to Hey, so what did you actually mean by

213
00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:26.440
this? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I have some light institutions,

214
00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:31.399
some cliff notes added in asterisks added
to describe is this how we follow?

215
00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:35.720
Let us tell you what the situation
is. Now, how would you

216
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:39.159
write this to address what you wanted
from from what you wrote back then?

217
00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:41.559
Yeah, it's kind of the same
idea. Yeah, you take George Washington,

218
00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:45.919
upload everything in his brain, just
put him in the fucking Oval office.

219
00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:48.360
Alright, man running for two years. Let's see how this matched up

220
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:52.000
to what you thought would happen.
Or or Alexander Hamilton, who would tell

221
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:56.519
you very specifically what he thought,
which is not necessarily what everybody else is

222
00:13:56.559 --> 00:14:00.759
thinking. It's he sold a lot
of ideas, you know, to people

223
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:07.720
that were not necessarily what they originally
agreed with. And I think that the

224
00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:15.039
historical figures probably have the greatest chance
of disappointing you, probably because you don't

225
00:14:15.039 --> 00:14:18.039
really know that much about them,
and they and so much time has passed

226
00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:22.000
that they've been you know, pedestalized. Yeah, yeah, that's everyone.

227
00:14:22.799 --> 00:14:24.399
Yeah, that's everyone. Yeah,
who knows they could have been fucking dickheads.

228
00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:26.440
They could have been cool though,
too, because someone's got to be

229
00:14:26.480 --> 00:14:30.279
cool back then. And my thought
is like, yeah, were they like

230
00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:33.120
that smart or were they just do
some extreme shit for their time? Yeah?

231
00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:37.039
Or do they get credited with things
that were other people's ideas around them?

232
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:41.200
Which is which is happens everywhere,
right, Like no one person changes

233
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:43.639
everything. They always got a team, or they always got an inspiration,

234
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.559
or they always have a ghostwriter,
or they always have a fucking whatever.

235
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:50.960
Hopefully that answers. Go to Discord
