00:00:00Good evening. Welcome to Fantasy Island. Welcome, 27th of September 2024.
00:00:0927th of September 2024, shortly past the time of normal beginning.

00:00:25Above 89.
00:00:27It's doing aight. It's doing aight.
00:00:32Best way to spend a Friday night with your wife and me.
00:00:36Philosophy. Ménage à 1990.
00:00:40If I do say so myself. All right.
00:00:42All right, let's get to your questions.
00:00:45Sorry, there were a bunch of questions in the last stream,
00:00:48but they're gone. Oh, actually, could I get them back?
00:00:51I'm pretty sure I could, right?
00:00:53Oh, that's not it.
00:00:55Ah, Friday.
00:00:57All right, let me have a look back here.
00:00:59I should be able to go back.
00:01:03To get your questions.
00:01:09Oh, starting now? Yeah, that was the last one, right?
00:01:15Uh, no. I don't want to turn on a live chat.
00:01:17I don't know what the heck that means.
00:01:20One hour to go.
00:01:22All right. Peaceful Parenting available in Spanish.
00:01:28Arriba! So, PeacefulParenting.com.
00:01:31PeacefulParenting.com. Please share it with people.
00:01:33I would appreciate that.
00:01:35The condensed version is now available in Spanish.
00:01:39In Spanglish.
00:01:41So, that's good.
00:01:43So, that's good. I hope you will check that out,
00:01:45and I hope that you will share that.
00:01:47All right.
00:01:51What if I have trouble approaching women?
00:01:53When I want to, I feel a mental block and my mind goes blank.
00:01:56Then, I lose my train of thought.
00:02:03My first thought is someone in my past benefits from me staying single.
00:02:06Does this sound correct?
00:02:10Interesting.
00:02:13Hit me with a why if you have trouble talking to women you're attracted to.
00:02:18It's also known as being a man.
00:02:20I certainly did when I was single.
00:02:23I've mostly gotten over it with my wife.
00:02:31So, hit me with a why if you have trouble talking to women you are attracted to.
00:02:41I must know.
00:02:46You must tell me.
00:02:49Right.
00:02:54So, the first thing to recognize and remember, of course,
00:02:59is that this is a perfectly natural, healthy, and common phenomenon.
00:03:04It means that you care.
00:03:06If you didn't care about rejection, you'd be a sociopath, and that's not good.
00:03:11Really not good. You don't want that.
00:03:13You don't want to be free of fear.
00:03:15That means you're free of conscience and humanity.
00:03:18So, it just means that you care.
00:03:22And, in general, when I look back at the women I was most nervous to talk to,
00:03:28it's because I was approaching them for entirely the wrong reasons.
00:03:33And the reason that I was tense about talking to the women was I was lying through my teeth.
00:03:41Lies were exuding from me like snot from the nose hole of a narwhal.
00:03:47I was lying through my—oh, no, honey, I just—
00:03:51although you have a curvaceous and lovely body,
00:03:54I am just—I'm fascinated by your mind and your thoughts and your dreams and your desires.
00:04:05I often have attacks of conscience when I want to lie to get into a woman's pants.
00:04:10So, yeah, it's the lying. It's the lying.
00:04:13Why are you approaching the women? Why?
00:04:16Do they have a spark? Do they have a great smile?
00:04:18Do they seem to have a good sense of humor? Do they appear friendly, nice, positive, enthusiastic, affectionate, whatever?
00:04:23Or are they just pretty?
00:04:26So pretty. So pretty.
00:04:29They deserve to be in the back of a windowless van on the way to the cult combat.
00:04:35So, yeah, why are you approaching the women?
00:04:37Why are you attracted to the women?
00:04:38Why are you talking to the women?
00:04:39Is it for their virtues or their prettiness?
00:04:42And again, these two can be combined, and I get all of that, right?
00:04:45But maybe you have a mental block because you're lying through your teeth.
00:04:51And I say this with all humility, having done it myself.
00:04:55There was a girl I dated in high school.
00:04:59Oh, man, she just had a look that was staggering to me.
00:05:06I dated her, and I was constantly looking for intelligent comments.
00:05:12I remember once she made an intelligent comment, and I was like, yes!
00:05:16Turns out it was kind of like an eclipse.
00:05:19Nice girl. Nice girl.
00:05:22Just not a lot going on.
00:05:25The lobes were not lobing.
00:05:28Did not lub the lobes.
00:05:30And maybe you have a block because going after a woman for her looks alone
00:05:40is a disaster that your brain is trying to save you from.
00:05:44You got your balls rolling at the bowling pins of the pretty girls,
00:05:48and maybe you're getting blocked for that.
00:05:50Just possibility.
00:05:52Just a possibility.
00:05:55I never really had much difficulty talking to my wife at all
00:06:02because I have for 22-plus years, I mean, I've been incredibly blessed.
00:06:09I won't say necessarily lucky, but very happy to have such a great person in my life.
00:06:17She's never been tough to talk to.
00:06:20We've never had any challenges talking.
00:06:23I remember a friend of mine when I was younger was talking about how
00:06:29when she and her husband would go out for dinner,
00:06:32they'd see all of these couples just kind of staring at each other,
00:06:35and she said, you know, when I was younger I thought,
00:06:37my God, we're never going to be that.
00:06:39We're never going to be that couple.
00:06:40And she's like, yeah, but life happens, and yeah,
00:06:42I've had a bunch of dinners with my husband.
00:06:44We're just staring at each other with nothing to say.
00:06:46That has never happened.
00:06:48Thank you very much for the tip.
00:06:50That has never happened with my wife.
00:06:56She is great fun to talk to, very insightful, very creative, very funny,
00:07:02but still not funny.
00:07:03My daughter is the funniest person in the family.
00:07:05I mean, don't get me wrong, she's a teenager,
00:07:07so you have to have a little bit of a thick skin,
00:07:09but she's absolutely the funniest person in the family.
00:07:11Okay, it's not even close.
00:07:16But yeah, I mean, I remember when my wife and I first just accidentally went out.
00:07:20We weren't even supposed to go out.
00:07:21We were supposed to go out with the whole volleyball team,
00:07:23but everyone had to cancel for some reason, so it was just my wife and I.
00:07:26We just had this electric conversation and went on for like two and a half hours.
00:07:29And when I left, I actually carried the little fold, the little restaurant fold,
00:07:35I still have it, that they put the bill in.
00:07:37I've never done that before or since.
00:07:38So clearly I wanted to take something home.
00:07:40I wanted to take something home.
00:07:42And then in 11 months we were married, and I did.
00:07:45So maybe, just maybe, your nervousness is trying to keep you
00:07:56from getting into a disastrous situation where you're dating based upon a lie.
00:08:04So, I mean, it could be any number of possibilities,
00:08:06but that would be interesting.
00:08:09That would be interesting.
00:08:12Sexual shame?
00:08:13Yeah, so there is a kind of thing.
00:08:15Ah, my lovely brother.
00:08:17So I remember there was this girl that I really liked.
00:08:21Ah, the Don Mills Mall.
00:08:22It no longer exists anymore.
00:08:24That bothers me.
00:08:26You know, we're made for a lot more continuity than we have.
00:08:29We're made to hoe the back 40 around castles that have been around for a thousand years,
00:08:34and the only thing that changes are the seasons and the leaves.
00:08:37But everything changes.
00:08:38But everything changes.
00:08:39Everything gets scooped up and rearranged and undone and redone.
00:08:43That mall, I spent a lot of time at that mall, at the Don Mills Mall.
00:08:47I wasn't like the mall rats, you know.
00:08:49They're not there to shop.
00:08:50They're not there to work.
00:08:51They're just there.
00:08:54It wasn't because of that.
00:08:55It was because I had a variety of jobs.
00:08:57I worked in a hardware store.
00:08:58I cleaned offices in that mall, and I worked in a convenience store in that mall.
00:09:05And so I spent a lot of time at the Don Mills Mall.
00:09:08It was actually a great mall.
00:09:09It was a great mall, by the way.
00:09:11My mother and I used to go for dinner at this little restaurant at the top of the mall.
00:09:16It was actually not a very good restaurant at all.
00:09:18And I remember my mother had a piece of fried fish, and she was like,
00:09:22Ah, I must bring out the chef.
00:09:25I mean, she was in one of her grandiose moods.
00:09:27Lord knows I've never had that, but I hear it happens to the occasional mall.
00:09:31But she was in one of her grandiose moods, and she's like,
00:09:34You must bring out the chef.
00:09:36I must compliment him.
00:09:37And this guy came out, just kind of greasy and stained, and he's just like,
00:09:41Why does a customer want to talk to me?
00:09:43I think he looked stoned, and I just remember him like,
00:09:46Oh, yeah, thanks.
00:09:50Just kind of standing there like a slightly swinging sack of potatoes.
00:09:54But I spent a lot of time in that mall, and there was a girl.
00:10:00Typhling type.
00:10:01There was a girl in the record store.
00:10:05And I would go in and browse for records.
00:10:09You know when you're pretending to be doing something, but you're shooting,
00:10:12like you can't look at the girl, it's like an eclipse, or you can't stare at it,
00:10:15because your nipples will inflame, and not in the way that you pay for.
00:10:21But, you know, with the hot wax.
00:10:23Anyway, I don't have to get into details.
00:10:24We all understand what I'm talking about.
00:10:26I was looking at a corner of my eye.
00:10:28Stealing glasses.
00:10:29Stealing glasses.
00:10:30Stealing hearts and stealing glasses.
00:10:32And I remember I finally did get up to talk to her, and I was talking to her,
00:10:36and my brother came up and said, Wipe the drool off, stiff!
00:10:39And he just pretended to, you know, and it's just like,
00:10:43Because, you know, you're talking to a girl because you're attracted to her,
00:10:46but you don't want to bruise the delicacies by saying,
00:10:48Oh, oh, likes her, likes her.
00:10:51That's tense, right?
00:10:53That's tense.
00:10:55So there could be some shaming around that if you've had that in the past.
00:11:00Mostly gotten over it with your wife.
00:11:01I was just kidding.
00:11:02But, yeah, when you just find somebody who's so easy to talk to,
00:11:06and you just absolutely love and enjoy talking to them,
00:11:09you know, put a ring on it if they're fertile.
00:11:13All right.
00:11:14Hey, Steph, long-time listener, thanks for all you do.
00:11:17What would your advice be to someone who wants to meet a quality woman
00:11:20and get married, but is too afraid to go out and interact with women in public?
00:11:26Are you?
00:11:28Give me your age range.
00:11:29You don't have to tell me the exact age.
00:11:30Give me your age range.
00:11:31By the way, thank you, Graham.
00:11:32I really appreciate that.
00:11:33Somebody says, long-time listener.
00:11:34Somebody, I say, Graham.
00:11:36Oh, he's crackers.
00:11:38Making good money now and so pleased to be able to support you
00:11:40more than sharing philosophy.
00:11:4139 years old.
00:11:4338 years old.
00:11:45Never kissed a girl.
00:11:4739 years old and just had my first baby.
00:11:49Peaceful parenting is my bedrock, thanks to you.
00:11:51Love you, brother.
00:11:52You're like the dad I never had.
00:11:53That might be a conversation for another time.
00:11:55Thank you, Graham, and massive, massive, massive congratulations.
00:11:59Thank you, thank you, thank you.
00:12:03All right.
00:12:04Sorry, let me get to your questions.
00:12:10Somebody says, yeah, my son is the funniest person in our family.
00:12:12He's only one?
00:12:14Somebody goes, rubber bones, because he hates getting dressed.
00:12:16It's pretty funny.
00:12:19All right.
00:12:20If you asked a question previously and you want to re-ask,
00:12:22you can find it here.
00:12:23Okay, thanks.
00:12:24I'll check that.
00:12:25All right.
00:12:27Desiree, you don't need to give me an essay.
00:12:29I'm just asking for your age range.
00:12:41Not for me, but for a couple of friends.
00:12:43One is in his 30s, one is in his 40s.
00:12:46All right.
00:12:49If I help you, everybody who's listening to this now or later,
00:12:53if I help you, genuinely help you, lose your anxiety about talking to
00:12:57members of the opposite sex, I can assume, I'm just going to,
00:13:01I'm not even going to ask, I'm just going to assume that's worth a
00:13:04donation or two, because I can tell you, I can absolutely tell you how
00:13:10to avoid your anxiety about talking to the opposite sex.
00:13:17Hit me with a why if that's an issue.
00:13:19You want to be more comfortable talking to a girl if you're a boy,
00:13:24a boy if you're a girl, or whatever.
00:13:28Whatever.
00:13:29Hit me with a why if that's of value to you,
00:13:32and I will tell you something that is going to blow your mind
00:13:36and change your life.
00:13:37I am not kidding.
00:13:38Blow your mind, change your life.
00:13:40Might even get you blown as a whole.
00:13:42Change your pants.
00:13:44I'm definitely going to join a gym class to meet women.
00:13:47Do you want to share your AI fine-tuning approach?
00:13:50I don't think so.
00:13:51I don't think I want to do that.
00:13:53Yes.
00:13:54All right.
00:13:58So everyone thinks that finding it hard to talk,
00:14:01I'm just going to talk boy to girl, right?
00:14:03So everyone thinks that finding it hard to talk to girls,
00:14:05it's because of insecurity.
00:14:07It's not.
00:14:08It's because of selfishness.
00:14:11It's because of selfishness.
00:14:13The reason why you have a tough time talking to girls is because you're selfish,
00:14:17because you're making it about you.
00:14:19My insecurities, my fear, my desire.
00:14:22Oh, I don't want to get rejected.
00:14:23Oh, I, me, me, I, I.
00:14:26Shut up.
00:14:27Not everything in life is about you and your whole mirrors of self-regard.
00:14:30It's not about you.
00:14:32I learned this in software sales in my 20s, right?
00:14:35I built this amazing, beautiful, wonderful piece of software,
00:14:38and I had to go and sell it.
00:14:40Now, did I go and sell it from the perspective of, well,
00:14:44I really need money to make payroll, so you've got to buy my software,
00:14:48because it's about me and my needs.
00:14:50Don't reject me, and I've got to get paid, and I've got this great software.
00:14:53No.
00:14:54No, no, no, no.
00:14:55I had a great piece of software,
00:15:01and I wanted to share it with the world.
00:15:05You grok, right?
00:15:06You follow, right?
00:15:07It was not about me.
00:15:10It was about my software and the amazing benefits my software
00:15:16could provide to the world.
00:15:21It's not about me.
00:15:22It's about the software and the benefit to someone else.
00:15:26It's the same thing with philosophy.
00:15:27It's not about me.
00:15:29It's about the benefit that philosophy can provide to the world, right?
00:15:36That's what it's about.
00:15:37It's about the benefit that philosophy can provide to the world.
00:15:43If you make it about you, people will reject you.
00:15:48Can you imagine going to a used car lot?
00:15:52You need a used car.
00:15:55The guy's like, hey, man, you know, I've got this hookers and blow habit.
00:16:02You've got to buy the most expensive car on the lot,
00:16:04because I really need the commission, man.
00:16:07Vixen with three axes is waiting for me down at the Gentleman's Club
00:16:10by the airport.
00:16:13I need a little pouch of bacon soda, if you know what I mean.
00:16:15This is the most expensive car.
00:16:17It's like 23 grand.
00:16:18It's the most expensive car we've got.
00:16:20My commission on that is a sweet 2,300.
00:16:22I really need that.
00:16:23I really need that.
00:16:24I'm going to blow it all tonight.
00:16:25Blow it.
00:16:26You get it?
00:16:27Blow.
00:16:28Anyway, I really, really need you to buy this fucking car,
00:16:32because Desiree and Vixen with three axes are waiting for me,
00:16:36scissor kicking at the Gentleman's Club out by the airport.
00:16:40And we've got special on 14,000 vats of specialized P. Diddy baby oil
00:16:48with pheromones.
00:16:49So you've got to buy this car for me.
00:16:52Do it for me, man.
00:16:53Do it for me.
00:16:54Would you want to buy a car from someone who made it all about themselves
00:16:57and their needs?
00:16:58No.
00:17:01A good salesman connects what they are selling to genuine,
00:17:06legitimate, helpful needs of the customers.
00:17:10So if you're coming in and you've got 19 children,
00:17:13the guy's not going to sell you a sports car.
00:17:16If you're coming in as a young single man,
00:17:18he's not going to sell you a minivan,
00:17:20because he's going to figure out what you might want and provide it.
00:17:25That's good sales.
00:17:26Sales is not about you.
00:17:28It's not even fundamentally about the product.
00:17:30It's about the benefit that the product can provide the buyer.
00:17:39And dating is sales.
00:17:42You are selling yourself.
00:17:46So if you have a cure for cancer that costs 50 bucks
00:17:55and you go to someone with cancer,
00:17:58you're not afraid of getting rejected,
00:18:00because it's 50 bucks and it cures their cancer.
00:18:02They're going to buy it.
00:18:04And they're going to thank you.
00:18:05They're going to send up hosannas to you to the very Elysium skies themselves.
00:18:13No problem.
00:18:17Now, if you had a cure for cancer for 50 bucks,
00:18:21someone's dying of cancer and you say,
00:18:23you know, I'm just too nervous to approach them.
00:18:27I don't want to.
00:18:29I mean, I'm probably overthinking this, but I just, I can't.
00:18:37I just, I can't.
00:18:38Don't make me.
00:18:39I can't do it.
00:18:41My heart, like I can feel it pounding,
00:18:43like Mike Tyson trying to get out of the bone cage of my chest.
00:18:47It's just, I can't.
00:18:50So I'm going home.
00:18:51And you take your cancer cure and you go home and the guy dies of cancer.
00:18:55Aren't you an asshole for killing him with your insecurity?
00:19:01It's not about you.
00:19:03Dating, talking to girls, talking to boys,
00:19:05it's not about you.
00:19:08Not about you.
00:19:12It's about the benefit you can provide to the other person.
00:19:17Now, if you don't believe in that benefit,
00:19:20go work on yourself until you believe in it.
00:19:23Don't pass along fraudulent gifts.
00:19:26Don't be a scam artist.
00:19:27Don't be a con artist.
00:19:28Don't pass along fraudulent gifts.
00:19:32Work on yourself until you have something of undeniable value to offer.
00:19:37Then don't be a selfish asshole and withhold your benefits from the world.
00:19:44Philosophy is not about me.
00:19:47It's about the benefit that philosophy can provide to you and the world as a whole.
00:19:52Oh, but I don't know if I'm eloquent enough.
00:19:54I don't know.
00:19:55I'm bald.
00:19:56I don't know.
00:19:57I don't know if I can do it.
00:19:58Oh, shut up.
00:19:59Go and provide your benefits to the world.
00:20:01Shut up and stop making it about yourself all the time
00:20:04Go and provide your benefits to the world.
00:20:10It's about the happiness you can bring to a good woman and good man and your children.
00:20:18It's not about you, you, you, you all the, all the, all the time.
00:20:24It's exhausting.
00:20:26It's debilitating.
00:20:35Somebody's falling from a high, high, high building and you've got this giant inflatable thing.
00:20:41It just needs, you and your buddies need to push it over five feet so they don't die.
00:20:45And you're like, oh, I don't know.
00:20:47I mean, I don't know.
00:20:49I don't want to impose.
00:20:50I don't want to move it.
00:20:51Maybe somebody wants it to stay where it is.
00:20:53Dead.
00:20:58Dead.
00:20:59Good.
00:21:00Good job.
00:21:01Stop making it about you.
00:21:02And somebody splats on the sidewalk.
00:21:10Well, I do have fusion in a jar.
00:21:12Could solve all of the energy problems in the world.
00:21:14I do have fusion in a jar.
00:21:16Figured that out.
00:21:18But I don't want to impose.
00:21:20And I don't want people to think I'm being pushy.
00:21:22And I don't want...
00:21:23God.
00:21:25Just shut up and go sell your fusion in a jar.
00:21:29Stop making it about you.
00:21:32It's about the happiness you can bring to someone.
00:21:34Now, if you meet the girl and you can bring happiness to the girl,
00:21:39how dare you withhold that from her?
00:21:41If she can bring happiness to you too.
00:21:43And usually it works that way that if you really bring happiness to someone,
00:21:47then they will bring happiness to you.
00:21:54But the reason why it's tough to talk to girls is you don't believe
00:21:57that you can bring value to someone.
00:22:01It's like asking for a raise when you've just spent the last year doing a shitty job.
00:22:04It's a little tough, right?
00:22:06Why am I so insecure asking for a raise?
00:22:09Well, because you set fire to the company warehouse three times in the last four months.
00:22:14And you're this close to getting fired.
00:22:16If you provide value to a woman, it's very selfish for you to withhold that value from her.
00:22:32I mean, really, in life.
00:22:36You just have to make one person very happy in order for your life to be completely worthwhile.
00:22:41Just one person.
00:22:43Make one person really...
00:22:44Hopefully that person is a young man or woman of childbearing age and all of that kind of good stuff.
00:22:49Get kids out of it.
00:22:50Just make one person happy.
00:22:51That's it.
00:22:52Just make one person happy.
00:22:53And hopefully they make you happy and all of that.
00:22:57I mean, I love what I do, but my greatest pride and sense of meaning and happiness and joy
00:23:05comes from the fact that I make my wife very happy.
00:23:08I make my daughter very happy.
00:23:10I mean, I make you guys happy too.
00:23:11I hope.
00:23:12Although I know sometimes it stings a little.
00:23:14It's the same with me.
00:23:15If it's any consolation.
00:23:17Just make someone happy.
00:23:19Just go and bring laughter.
00:23:22You know, like there's all these things on...
00:23:25Did I save one?
00:23:26You know, all of these lists, right?
00:23:29All of these lifts.
00:23:31Lists that women have, right?
00:23:34I'm looking for a man in finance.
00:23:36Six, four, blue eyes.
00:23:39But I don't think I'll be able to find it.
00:23:43Can I search for it?
00:23:44List.
00:23:48Okay.
00:23:49I just tried to do a search and the screen just went blank.
00:23:52Wait, did it go down to the bottom?
00:23:54List.
00:23:55Oh, there it is.
00:23:56Okay.
00:23:57Are you saying I have nothing?
00:23:59Wait.
00:24:00Deep.
00:24:01Deep voice.
00:24:02May 21st.
00:24:03No, I don't think that's it.
00:24:04So, there's this woman and she was...
00:24:05She's, I don't know, some fitness girl.
00:24:06And she's like, I have this list, you know.
00:24:07Over 5'10".
00:24:08Deep voice.
00:24:09Good cheekbones.
00:24:10And, you know, just list and list and list, right?
00:24:11And, you know, the lists are fun, you know.
00:24:12Like, when I was a kid, my brother and I used to be like, if we got a million pounds each,
00:24:13what would we buy?
00:24:14And he was like, I don't know.
00:24:15I don't know.
00:24:16I don't know.
00:24:17I don't know.
00:24:18I don't know.
00:24:19I don't know.
00:24:20I don't know.
00:24:21I don't know.
00:24:22I don't know.
00:24:23I don't know.
00:24:24I don't know.
00:24:25I don't know.
00:24:26I don't know.
00:24:27I don't know.
00:24:28I don't know.
00:24:29I don't know.
00:24:30I don't know.
00:24:31I don't know.
00:24:32I don't know.
00:24:33I don't know.
00:24:34I don't know.
00:24:35I don't know.
00:24:36I don't know.
00:24:37I don't know.
00:24:38I don't know.
00:24:39I don't know.
00:24:40I don't know.
00:24:41I don't know.
00:24:42I don't know.
00:24:43I don't know.
00:24:44I don't know.
00:24:45I don't know.
00:24:46I don't know.
00:24:47I don't know.
00:24:48I don't know.
00:24:49I don't know.
00:24:50I don't know.
00:24:51I don't know.
00:24:52I don't know.
00:24:53I don't know.
00:24:54I don't know.
00:24:55I don't know.
00:24:56I don't know.
00:24:57Oh right.
00:24:58Her list goes out the window.
00:24:59The list is not life in this instance.
00:25:00The list is nonsense.
00:25:04It's just nonsense.
00:25:09It all goes out the window.
00:25:12You know, there's a pretty funny, what do they call it, when, chadfishing, right, there's
00:25:29chadfishing, so chadfishing is when you get the picture of a really great guy, a really
00:25:34great looking guy, and you just wait for the women to swarm you, right, like a really good
00:25:38looking guy, and you just wait for the women to swarm you.
00:25:41And so some guy who was an incel wanted to put out this theory, he said, oh, well, you're
00:25:46an incel because you have right wing beliefs, right, you're a conservative, right, so this
00:25:52really good looking guy was like, yeah, I'm a MAGA guy, and the women are all like, teehee,
00:25:56that's fine, right, because he's good looking, right, or you're an incel because you don't
00:26:04have good personal hygiene, and then this really good looking guy was like, yeah, I
00:26:08don't bathe, and the women are like, teehee, I bet you smell good anyway, you know, or
00:26:13maybe because you don't have any charisma, and so this guy said absolutely nothing of
00:26:18any intelligence, nice weather, I like sports, like just complete nonsense, and the women
00:26:22are like, oh, you're so much fun to chat with, right, so it's all kind of funny, right, it's
00:26:26all just, it's sad, sad, but funny, sad but funny.
00:26:38So you have something of value to offer, or you don't.
00:26:47You have something of value to offer, now, if you don't think you have something of value
00:26:53to offer, any woman with any perception will know you're lying your ass off when you talk
00:26:59to her.
00:27:03You're the coke addict car dealer, car sales dealer, right, you don't, you're a car salesman,
00:27:07coke addict car salesman, don't be that guy, it's gross, it's gross, and you'll only get
00:27:14self-loathing men or women.
00:27:25So stop, stop making it all about you and your thoughts and your feelings, if you can
00:27:36make the woman happy, stop being a jerk and withholding that from her.
00:27:44Again, I understand there's got to be, oh yeah, the Chad guy, there was another Chad
00:27:50Fishing, right, the guy posted that he was convicted of assault against his girlfriend
00:27:57and the women didn't care, they didn't care.
00:28:03They didn't care.
00:28:07So a woman's list, it's just a filter for rage cells and the resentful, it's just a
00:28:14filter, that's all it is, just a filter.
00:28:16I have a list of preferences, well I'm upset with that, okay, so you're a hot-tempered
00:28:21guy who has no self-confidence and you're kind of angry at women, so, right, the list
00:28:26is, it's a wish list, it's comedy, it's not a real thing, it's not a real thing.
00:28:31And of course, we know that the list is not a real thing, because the list never, never
00:28:36seems to include moral qualities.
00:28:39I've never seen any of these lists, it's always finance, Chad jaw, six foot two, old money,
00:28:46deep voice, masculine intent, funny, cute, charming, witty, bleh.
00:28:53It's never about honest, courageous, virtuous, hard, like it's never, never about that.
00:28:57So it's just, it's a wish list, it's like, it is much relationship to women's actual
00:29:02dating strategies is like, I don't know, fantasy football pornography does, I don't know.
00:29:17So the way that you talk to women is, you have something to offer, you have something
00:29:22of value to offer, and you like the girl.
00:29:26If you don't have something to offer, don't talk to her, don't talk to her, otherwise
00:29:30you're just defrauding her, don't do it.
00:29:34And if you don't think you have anything of value to offer women, then you have to wait
00:29:39until you accept and believe that, right?
00:29:45Fix my loneliness is a hyena-like mating cry of the terminally depressed.
00:29:51Make me feel better about myself.
00:29:54I don't want to be lonely, help me, help me, oh my God.
00:29:57And that literally is like, hey man, I need, I need, I need, I need to get some drugs because,
00:30:03so buy my car, like, it's about your needs, your needs, your needs, right?
00:30:07No thank you.
00:30:10No thank you.
00:30:14Work on having and adding value.
00:30:17I mean, I always had a very strong belief that I'd be a great husband and a great dad.
00:30:23I mean, maybe not when I was a lot younger, but certainly from my mid to late 20s onwards,
00:30:29and certainly after therapy, which I started in my late 20s.
00:30:32So I was like, yeah, I'd be a good, I'd be a good dad.
00:30:36I mean, I knew I was good with kids because I worked in a daycare and they all adored
00:30:39me, as I really had great affection for them as well.
00:30:43But so I knew I was going to be good with kids.
00:30:51I knew I'd have a lot of fun as a dad.
00:30:53I knew I'd be a pretty good husband and a very good husband and all of that, so.
00:31:02Somebody says, we know women are lying when they say they want nice guys.
00:31:05Why believe them when they say they want six foot, six figures?
00:31:07No, no, no.
00:31:08So women want nice guys.
00:31:11Well, you know, that's a very bitter meme.
00:31:13It's like, how do I repel women?
00:31:17It's like, oh, just be nice.
00:31:18They hate that stuff.
00:31:19That's not true.
00:31:20No, healthy women want nice guys.
00:31:24The women who say they want bad guys are not healthy.
00:31:29They are very unhealthy, very toxic.
00:31:35So don't worry about those people.
00:31:37Don't worry about those people.
00:31:40Don't worry about those people.
00:31:46They are advertising their dysfunction and they're helping you stay away.
00:31:55All right, let me get to your other questions and comments.
00:32:01Yeah, of course, there are the women, women always want more pay and then they
00:32:06always want men who make more than they do, and it's like, no, sorry.
00:32:11Every time you get more pay, a man generally gets less pay.
00:32:14So women want more pay and then a man who makes more than they do.
00:32:19And it's like, I'm sorry, I don't know.
00:32:24I'll donate, but it will need to wait until October.
00:32:26OK. I can wait.
00:32:30Just kidding. All right.
00:32:35Like, yeah, you're just going to have to you have to pick a lane, right?
00:32:38If you want to make more money, that's fine.
00:32:40That's fine. But you really are going to have to accept that men aren't going to
00:32:46make as much money as you, especially when you want the government to force
00:32:49employers to pay you more, right?
00:32:51Somebody says since from the last stream, I was listening recently to one of your
00:32:55shows and you mentioned you love how Izzy interacts with authority figures.
00:32:58Can you name a particularly memorable example of Izzy interacting with an
00:33:01authority figure? I won't give any particular details, but in a situation of
00:33:06injustice where an acquaintance of hers was not able to stand up for herself, Izzy
00:33:11went. She went very strong in making sure that the rather shy acquaintance got a
00:33:21fair settling of accounts.
00:33:23So she's very, very fierce that way.
00:33:25And I appreciate that.
00:33:27Steph, what do you think of debating parental responsibility and peaceful
00:33:30parenting with Andrew Wilson?
00:33:32Well, the problem is that Andrew Wilson and I would be dealing with a very
00:33:35different methodology.
00:33:36So I would be dealing with reason and evidence and empiricism, and he would be
00:33:42dealing with theological absolutes.
00:33:44So I'm not sure if we couldn't agree on that.
00:33:47And therefore, the debate probably wouldn't go very far.
00:33:53All right.
00:33:55Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
00:33:59I would rather see Steph talk to Chris Williamson about more in-depth life
00:34:03stuff.
00:34:03Chris Williamson reminds me of a young Steph.
00:34:06Hey, that's younger.
00:34:06No, actually, it's young.
00:34:07All right.
00:34:11Did we talk already, Chris Williamson?
00:34:18So I'm just going to see if, uh, once in a lifetime, there is water underground.
00:34:26Same as it ever was.
00:34:29Same as it ever was.
00:34:31Okay.
00:34:31So there's no questions there that I didn't get to.
00:34:35Oh, sneezy time.
00:34:36Is it sneezy time?
00:34:41Oh my.
00:34:43All right.
00:34:49Thank you for the tip.
00:34:51Uh, I'm not sure what it is about this conversation, but by God, do I feel the
00:34:55need to distract myself, even leave and go do chores or anything else, even though
00:34:59I love the advice you're giving and I've been thinking of ways I can increase my
00:35:01value on what I bring to the table.
00:35:05You don't have the right to withhold your gold from the world.
00:35:11You just don't have that right.
00:35:12It's wrong.
00:35:13It's absolutely wrong.
00:35:14You don't have the right.
00:35:15Do you know why?
00:35:15Because you only exist because other people did not withhold
00:35:18their value from the world.
00:35:19So your existence is predicated on the fact that your ancestors
00:35:23were able to woo women and men.
00:35:26Well, wooing men isn't that hard.
00:35:28So you only exist because your ancestors were not afraid to put their
00:35:36best foot forward and woo women.
00:35:38So you don't have the right to withhold your value from women.
00:35:41Otherwise you're just a exploiter.
00:35:43You're a kind of parasitical, right?
00:35:44You're like vampiric on everybody else's courage.
00:35:47And then you make it all about yourself and fumble and choke.
00:35:50And that's the end of your bloodline.
00:35:52You owe it to your children.
00:35:54You owe it to your children to make a case for you as a father and a husband.
00:35:59You owe it to the next generation.
00:36:00You owe it to the continuance of your bloodline, civilization, the West, whatever.
00:36:08You owe it.
00:36:10It is a requirement.
00:36:12It's not an option.
00:36:15Well, when I get over my indecision, you're only here because other
00:36:19people got over their bullshit.
00:36:21So get over yours.
00:36:23Go fuck it up.
00:36:26Go fuck it up.
00:36:27I've crashed and burned numerous times in talking to girls.
00:36:33I mean, I told you the story about the first girl I asked out.
00:36:37Queen of the school.
00:36:38Still remember her name?
00:36:39Queen of the school.
00:36:41I must've been 14 years old.
00:36:42And I said, Hey, would you like to go swimming?
00:36:46And she's like, with who?
00:36:48Crashed and burned.
00:36:53First time around.
00:36:54Crashed and burned.
00:36:56So, so what?
00:36:58What's wrong with that?
00:36:59What's wrong with that?
00:37:01You, uh, you want to wait to a guaranteed success before you try anything?
00:37:05Well, that's a great way to live in the grave long before you have to.
00:37:10You never want to live in the grave.
00:37:11You want to want to be dead meat when you go in the grave.
00:37:19Some better say is I have a lot of anxiety about my career and
00:37:22having children just had my first.
00:37:24I'm away from home for six, 12 to 16 days a month.
00:37:27And I'm worried it's going to be a problem for secure
00:37:29attachment of my sweet baby girl.
00:37:30My career treats me well, and I'm happy here, but I don't know
00:37:33how to navigate this challenge.
00:37:35Well, just ask for more time at home.
00:37:44Just ask for more time at home.
00:37:48No, I talked to Chris Williamson in 2020.
00:38:00Did I, did I have exciting?
00:38:05Good to know, you know, you've done a lot of interviews.
00:38:07When guy creates fake hot criminal Tinder profile to make a point
00:38:13and it goes horribly, right?
00:38:14Oh, this is from 2019.
00:38:16It's when I was, uh, I read more Chad 29 sup I'm Chad.
00:38:25You don't like me too bad.
00:38:27Things you should know about me.
00:38:28Cause you all see the ankle monitor.
00:38:36Nice.
00:38:38Nice.
00:38:40Oh my gosh.
00:38:41And the girls just, Chad takes a super aggressive approach with this next
00:38:47Tinder match, basically telling her to hurry up and read his profile.
00:38:50So they could get the unpleasantness out of the way and get straight to
00:38:53smashing, which is sex, right?
00:38:57That's pretty funny.
00:39:00Oh my gosh.
00:39:04The best is safe for last.
00:39:05However, when one of his matches completely blows past, he's
00:39:08Oh my gosh.
00:39:12So she says, read it that for real or joke or what it's real.
00:39:17It was only one kid.
00:39:19He was eight and my mind felt, Oh God, Oh God, Oh, that's horrible.
00:39:23And she says, wow.
00:39:24Not really sure what to say.
00:39:25I guess it's cool.
00:39:27How are you being honest about it though?
00:39:30Yeah, I'm not really sure what to say.
00:39:31I guess it's cool how you're being honest about it, though.
00:39:34Yeah, I'm not really sure what to say.
00:39:36I guess it's cool how you're being honest about it though.
00:39:39So what are you doing right about now?
00:39:40Anything cool?
00:39:41Oh, just bored, bored and on Tinder looking for fun and stuff yourself.
00:39:44Are you from?
00:39:44And then she just goes on.
00:39:46Oh God.
00:39:47Oh God.
00:39:49Oh, that's, um, you know, I'm telling you, I said this like, um, I said this a
00:39:57show or two ago, chivalry is gone because female nature, at least in its current
00:40:01incarnation is, uh, it's being revealed.
00:40:05This is, it's just being revealed to bear to people.
00:40:08I'm a pilot.
00:40:13So that's impossible without a career change.
00:40:16Yeah.
00:40:17Well, just, you know, I'm, I'm sure you get time off and spend as much time as you
00:40:19can.
00:40:20All right.
00:40:21Hi Steph.
00:40:22I just had a job interview with an absolutely amazing manager.
00:40:25A total contrast from mine.
00:40:26The job pays considerably more as well.
00:40:28I'm really hoping to get the job.
00:40:29Looking back, what would the science be that this manager was interested?
00:40:32Well, I, I don't know, but there's a very passive approach.
00:40:44I don't, sorry, maybe I'm misunderstanding something.
00:40:48So I assume that you called up the manager and said, that was an
00:40:53absolutely fantastic interview.
00:40:55I'm dying to work for you.
00:40:56I know I can provide a huge amount of value.
00:40:58I'm on tender hooks.
00:41:00If there's anything else you need to know, I'd be happy to answer any and all
00:41:03questions.
00:41:04Hire me.
00:41:04I will work like a Turk or whatever, like whatever you're going to say.
00:41:08So why would you be passive about this?
00:41:13Oh, modern wisdom.
00:41:15Okay.
00:41:15So, um, modern wisdom is the podcast and why YouTube deleted my 1 million
00:41:21subscriber channel.
00:41:23It was probably well over 2 million, except they kept suppressing it also.
00:41:27Thanks Steph.
00:41:28Just donated at free domain.com slash donate.
00:41:32I appreciate that.
00:41:33Very, very kind.
00:41:35Good looking guy.
00:41:40Should probably do that again.
00:41:43Rating explicit.
00:41:44That's right.
00:41:45Explicit nipple tastic philosophy is in the house.
00:41:55All right.
00:41:55Any other last questions, comments, challenges, issues, problems, praise,
00:42:00condemnation, salvation, desperation.
00:42:05All right.
00:42:07I discussed my value.
00:42:08I listened to a podcast from years ago about landing a dream job and how making
00:42:11the case for the value one can bring is very powerful.
00:42:18Um, and important in this process.
00:42:22He did ask one situational question where I told him I needed to think a bit more.
00:42:25We got back to it later and I gave a good answer though.
00:42:26I'm just worried that messed me up.
00:42:28No, if, if it's right, you can't mess it up.
00:42:31If it's a good fit and he's a good manager, you can't mess it up.
00:42:47Yeah.
00:42:47I mean, I read some, some biographies of Hitler.
00:42:50Um, when I was working on my novel, uh, almost, uh, because I really wanted to
00:42:55try and capture the, the hellscape of, um, the Weimar Republic in that novel
00:43:01and the rise of Nazism.
00:43:02So, um, yeah, I think, uh, thank you very much.
00:43:05I appreciate that.
00:43:06So it is, uh, you know, people are, people are curious and, and this again, the
00:43:12skepticism, uh, you know, once, once you break that dam and people realize that
00:43:16there's been a lot of big lies in society, they're going to go looking for more.
00:43:20And whether they'll find them or not, that's a, that's a journey, man.
00:43:25That's a journey.
00:43:28I mean, I remember, um, uh, Churchill in the unnecessary war.
00:43:31I did a show on this, like, I don't know, 17 years ago, uh, about a lot
00:43:35of the lies about world war II.
00:43:36And that's, uh, that's pretty wild stuff.
00:43:42Yeah.
00:43:42Cause if, if, if the lies are right here, right.
00:43:44The lies are right up against your face.
00:43:47Who's to say that they aren't further away.
00:43:49Right.
00:43:49The idea that you're being lied.
00:43:52Like, let me ask you this.
00:43:54Cause maybe we can make it a little bit more personal so that we can sort
00:43:56of understand it at this level.
00:44:00Have you, uh, Hey, Steph, just wanted to let you know the quality of the show.
00:44:08It hasn't wavered a bit.
00:44:08I haven't donated in a while due to financial worries.
00:44:10I appreciate that.
00:44:11And I, I know, man, everybody, please, please know that I understand that.
00:44:15And I sympathize and please don't donate what you can't afford.
00:44:18Absolutely not.
00:44:18Keep that for yourself and all of that.
00:44:21But, um, anything that's been on your mind lately, Steph?
00:44:23Oh yeah.
00:44:24Everything and always all the time.
00:44:26It's quite a carnival in here.
00:44:30Um, so if you've ever had someone lie to you, a big lie, a big lie, I was
00:44:43thinking, cause there was one in a call-in show recently, but it was a
00:44:46private call-in show, so I won't talk about it.
00:44:47But if you've ever had someone just a giant lie, then what happens is you
00:44:55look back, don't you skeptically over the entire relationship, like if you've
00:45:02been married for 20 years and you realize your wife cheated on you twice
00:45:06over the last year, don't you look back and say, Oh my God, what was going on
00:45:09before, right?
00:45:12If you've been in a relationship for 20 years and you find out that someone
00:45:16has some big, terrible secret, right?
00:45:22Then don't you look back and say, Oh my God, if they can keep this secret,
00:45:29what other secrets are they keeping?
00:45:30How much have they been lying to me?
00:45:31Right.
00:45:32So, so this is what's going on in society at the moment.
00:45:34This is the consequence.
00:45:37Everything is now in question because so many lies have been told.
00:45:44So many lies have been told.
00:45:50So many lies have been told that everything is now open to question.
00:46:07Did we ever publish this to our channel?
00:46:10Are you to delete my 1 million subscriber channel?
00:46:15So, yeah.
00:46:19All right.
00:46:19Somebody says, yeah, even aliens, UFOs, flat earth, reptilian overlords,
00:46:25the chemtrails, like people are just like, Oh my God, like we've been lied to
00:46:29about so much.
00:46:30What have we, what have we not been lied to about?
00:46:32And that's, you know, that's really kicking things open that formerly were
00:46:37accepted, right?
00:46:39Uh, somebody says when you were in the private sector, how did you receive
00:46:41corrections or improvement feedback from peers or reports people below you?
00:46:45As a solopreneur now, what is your opinion about feedback?
00:46:48I recall you asking for feedback from us listeners and even your daughter.
00:46:51So I guess you welcome it from people who work for you.
00:46:53Am I right?
00:46:54Yeah.
00:46:54I mean, I think James, you can say that I'm pretty often saying, um, how's it
00:47:00going working with me?
00:47:01Is there anything that I can do better or different or anything you need support
00:47:05on or anything that you'd like to work on to make your day working with me more
00:47:11enjoyable or anything like that?
00:47:12Right.
00:47:12So, uh, so yeah, I mean, I'm always looking for feedback.
00:47:18That's, you know, I always say with the show, you know, feedback, thoughts,
00:47:20comments, questions, issues, you know, whatever you, I can improve.
00:47:23And, you know, every couple of months I'll certainly do a big question about,
00:47:28uh, James has absolutely requesting feedback.
00:47:30Yeah.
00:47:30I just want to know how I can do things better.
00:47:33Uh, I'm proud of what I do and optimistic about how I can improve.
00:47:39It's a tough balance, right?
00:47:40Cause you want to say that I can improve without saying I'm not
00:47:43doing a quality job now, right?
00:47:44So I'm doing the maximum quality at all times.
00:47:48I try to do the maximum quality in a sustainable fashion, right?
00:47:51The maximum quality and always try to improve.
00:47:54And that tension is to me, what keeps things keep getting spicy, keeping it spicy.
00:48:02Oh, with regards to this.
00:48:03Yeah.
00:48:03I look back and try and trace potentially when the person started to lie.
00:48:07Yeah, for sure.
00:48:10I'm pretty sure Keith Knight believes in chemtrails.
00:48:12I found a website where you can build book collections and Keith's collection
00:48:15had a few books about geoengineering.
00:48:17I think chemtrails are real.
00:48:18China and Dubai openly admit weather modifications.
00:48:22I do think, uh, I know that China and Dubai have admitted
00:48:26weather modification for sure.
00:48:31So I, I did a whole show on chemtrails recently, which you can, we can look up.
00:48:40Um, it is kind of creepy watching these, these, these mosquitoes drop from planes.
00:48:49I just find that that feels very dystopian to me.
00:48:53So yeah, I, but I, what I do know is that there are vapor trails.
00:49:04Like, I mean that for sure.
00:49:04I know.
00:49:05And planes crisscrossing and the vapor trails that I understand.
00:49:08And they do come and they do start and stop depending on the thermoclines
00:49:11of the temperature or differently layered, uh, air temperatures and so on.
00:49:14Right.
00:49:15So thermoclines, I think that's water anyway.
00:49:19You know, so they do start and stop depending on various factors.
00:49:22So I'm, you know, some, some of that I think is people thinking, oh,
00:49:26they're flipping a switch and so on.
00:49:27But I think some of that's more natural.
00:49:28So, all right.
00:49:34Yeah.
00:49:34Contrails.
00:49:35That's right.
00:49:36The government admitted to chemtrails in Vietnam.
00:49:38It's just a matter of scale.
00:49:40Well, again, it, uh, it wouldn't surprise me.
00:49:43You know, I, I made a video, as you know, called the case against China during COVID.
00:49:48I got a lot of expertise in that.
00:49:50And, uh, but even I was a bit surprised when, I mean, a bunch of stuff went missing
00:49:56in Calgary and people that, that really went down the memory hole and that, uh,
00:50:02it seems that, uh, uh, America was funding the French built Wuhan, uh, the
00:50:09Wuhan lab, uh, which has about the same level of security as your average
00:50:16dentist's office, not kidding about that.
00:50:18But I, I was even, even I was surprised that the U.S.
00:50:21was funding or appears to have been funding bioweapons in China.
00:50:25That's wild.
00:50:26And that totally destroys any sort of left, right, and a free
00:50:31market and communist distinction.
00:50:36All right, let's see here.
00:50:38What am I missing here?
00:50:44All right.
00:50:44Chemtrails has put out to down a preview of quite the queue on Q and A's to general.
00:50:58Yeah, for sure.
00:51:02Wuhan is weird as hell.
00:51:03That's where the scrap metal from 9-1-9-11 went.
00:51:06Is that right?
00:51:07As a pilot, contrails are normal.
00:51:08Chemtrails, as they're called, are real, but there's lots of
00:51:10misinformation on how it works.
00:51:12Yeah, I mean, I'm aware that contrails are normal, um, but yeah.
00:51:21It's the idea that they put it on commercial planes, that they just have
00:51:24these, uh, chemicals or sprays on commercial planes and they attach it to
00:51:28the wings and then the pilots flip a switch.
00:51:30I think that would be pretty tough.
00:51:32I think that'd be pretty tough to, um, to keep quiet.
00:51:36I mean, I think that would be pretty tough.
00:51:38I mean, lots of retired pilots would just, the last couple of days of work,
00:51:42they just take, here's where we flip on the con, the chemtrails and here's
00:51:45where we flip off and so on with that.
00:51:46So, because you see commercial, isn't they talk about commercial flights, right?
00:51:50So again, I'm right.
00:51:52Uh, I am, uh, not an expert on this.
00:51:54Oh, it's private aircraft.
00:51:57And nth dimensional reptiles I struggle with, but chemtrails,
00:52:00my brain can understand.
00:52:01Yeah.
00:52:02It's like the, the, uh, the lizard necks and so on.
00:52:06I think those are just video artifacts from compression and so on.
00:52:09Right.
00:52:10Yo, Steph, big donation coming a few hundred from me getting my first
00:52:13YouTube paycheck of about 4k late October.
00:52:17Well, I'm very happy for you.
00:52:19I'm very happy for you that you're getting paid from YouTube.
00:52:23Can you believe it?
00:52:23Like back in the day, you said six or 7,000 people watching a live stream
00:52:28and I'd get super chats from that.
00:52:30Isn't that wild?
00:52:31Isn't that wild?
00:52:32But I still like the jazz club.
00:52:34What can I tell you?
00:52:36But thank you.
00:52:37I really, really appreciate that.
00:52:38Where is the art bell was right jar.
00:52:39Yeah, yeah, for sure.
00:52:42Yeah.
00:52:43Can the government of Canada was funding, somebody says, was funding
00:52:46gain of research or similar research in Saskatchewan with Chinese links.
00:52:49Was I think it was Winnipeg.
00:52:50I think it was Winnipeg.
00:52:54Uh, yeah, I, you know, I don't think there's any limit to the amount of
00:52:57creepy stuff that goes on, uh, in the bowels of, of statism.
00:53:01I really don't think that there's any particular limit to it.
00:53:03It's, uh, it's pretty wild.
00:53:06It's pretty wild.
00:53:08It's pretty wild.
00:53:09And by the way, by the way, sorry.
00:53:11I mean, all, all openness and, and, uh, uh, appreciation your, um, your
00:53:18success on YouTube is wonderful.
00:53:19And I'm actually, I'm thrilled for you.
00:53:21I'm absolutely thrilled for you and well done.
00:53:23Well done.
00:53:24Uh, if you want to, um, uh, share your channel here, I'm
00:53:28sure people would appreciate it.
00:53:30Doberman says Steph much appreciated for the call and show with the woman
00:53:33whose sister was addicted to drugs and her evil parents are believing
00:53:35a comment under those show under the show soon, just gathering my
00:53:38thoughts on why it was so powerful.
00:53:40Yeah, I'm doing some crackerjack call and shows lately.
00:53:43I did one with a woman yesterday where I was trying to get her to
00:53:46open her heart to her children.
00:53:49Ooh, that was something.
00:53:50Yeah, that was something I'm sure that'll go out at some point
00:53:53over the next week or two.
00:53:55But yeah, I've been doing some pretty wild call and shows lately.
00:53:57It's a very good, good call and shows lately.
00:54:01You'll be ordering a private call soon as well.
00:54:02Yeah, the private calls are pretty spicy.
00:54:04Uh, cause I can be pretty, pretty frank without having to worry about being
00:54:07sliced and diced and misinterpreted.
00:54:09So yeah, the private calls are very good in my, in my humble opinion.
00:54:12I think they're very important.
00:54:14So you can get those of course, a free domain.com slash call free
00:54:17domain.com slash call.
00:54:22All right.
00:54:23Any other last questions, comments, issues, challenges.
00:54:27Sorry.
00:54:27I'm not going to do a super long show tonight, but I did like six hours of
00:54:30call-ins today, so I'm a little full.
00:54:34How much are they?
00:54:35Uh, just talk to me on, uh, I'm still half and half.
00:54:38It's sort of an introductory price at the moment.
00:54:39It's probably going to go up cause everyone's like, oh, that's so little.
00:54:41I was expecting more.
00:54:42So just contact me on, um, uh, using the website and we'll talk about it from there.
00:54:50Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
00:54:56Yeah.
00:54:56I don't want to talk about a price here because, um, when it changes, people will
00:54:59get mad, it's the kind of thing, you know, I was just realizing the other day that I
00:55:03haven't raised in, I don't even know how long, like half a decade or more.
00:55:08I haven't like, it's still three bucks a month, five bucks a month.
00:55:11I haven't raised it.
00:55:12So I may at some point have to up that just a smidge as well.
00:55:14Cause otherwise, you know, the, uh, the, uh, income decays, right.
00:55:22Uh, let's see here.
00:55:23I'm very happy that the world seems to be gradually taking an ancap slow turn.
00:55:26Do you see that as well?
00:55:27Yes, absolutely.
00:55:29Half yay is doing a lot.
00:55:30And even, even Mark Zuckerberg, Zuckerberg has come out as a quasi libertarian.
00:55:35Well, that was kind of predictable though.
00:55:38So how is it somewhat predictable that Mark Zuckerberg was going to come out as
00:55:45that Mark Zuckerberg was going to come out as more of a libertarian.
00:55:55A friend of mine did a private call and said it was the
00:55:57best money he had ever spent.
00:55:59Well, thank you.
00:55:59I appreciate that.
00:56:00And do thank your friend for that.
00:56:10So, uh, yes.
00:56:11How was it predictable?
00:56:15Yeah, he started working out.
00:56:16That's right.
00:56:17Yeah.
00:56:17He started working out.
00:56:18I assume maybe he's taken some, uh, DHEA or TRT or I don't know.
00:56:23I don't know.
00:56:23Whatever.
00:56:24Right.
00:56:24But yeah, I mean, the fact that he's just started to work out heavily, uh, you don't
00:56:28know what your beliefs are when you've got noodle arms, like you don't know.
00:56:32You don't know if you're just frightened of, of any assertiveness because you can
00:56:35get your ass kicked up and down the school hallway, you don't know what you
00:56:39actually believe if your body is weak.
00:56:42So out of curiosity, how long is the average wait time for a private call?
00:56:47Oh, not too bad.
00:56:48Actually.
00:56:49You'd be surprised.
00:56:49All right.
00:56:50Uh, I showed my wife the 2012 movie Les Mis yesterday.
00:56:54Thoughts on it?
00:56:54Oh, I thought it was terrible.
00:56:56I thought it was absolutely completely and totally terrible.
00:57:00Uh, it was appalling.
00:57:01I have an, uh, an amazing soft spot for the, well, I, I love the, I mean, Victor
00:57:08Hugo was called the master of human tears.
00:57:10He was so good at evoking emotion in his writing.
00:57:13And, uh, I love the novel Les Mis and I have an absolutely deep
00:57:19and special place in my heart.
00:57:21You, he thinks that man is me.
00:57:23He knew him at a glance.
00:57:24It's really a great musical.
00:57:26And it was really the first musical that I loved.
00:57:31It really is the first musical that I fell in love with.
00:57:35And this is because I dated a woman who was really into musicals.
00:57:40And she got me into even chess, uh, the musical, which is a pretty wild
00:57:45idea for musicals, just chess tournaments.
00:57:48What's it going to be the witness to the ultimate test of cerebral,
00:57:52of cerebral fitness, uh, Murray head.
00:57:56Uh, anyway, so I absolutely love the musical.
00:57:59Carl Wilkinson moves me beyond words.
00:58:02He played the priest, although he, he originally did the role of Jean
00:58:06Valjean, two, four, six Oh one.
00:58:10Yeah.
00:58:10And his falsetto and bring them home, bring him home is just
00:58:13fantastic and Yolrus and, uh, beautiful.
00:58:16I remember when I was working up North, the woman that I was, this
00:58:20is before we were dating, but we were sort of flirting with each other.
00:58:23And, uh, she said, who's better at revolution.
00:58:28And she, she gave me that, you know, you say you want a revolution.
00:58:33Well, you know, the John Lennon one, which is kind of hippie dippy.
00:58:38Uh, and then she's like, uh, read the blood of angry.
00:58:41I'm like, that's a better revolutionary song out of lame is then a stinky
00:58:45old, uh, noodle armed, uh, John Lennon.
00:58:48Right.
00:58:49But, uh, so I have a huge soft spot for the play limits.
00:58:52I've only seen it once.
00:58:53I saw it in New York many years ago, and it was just amazing.
00:58:57It was just amazing.
00:58:59And I did the woman I went with, who I was dating at that point, uh, was so
00:59:02moved that she almost couldn't breathe afterwards because it's a beautiful
00:59:06vision of heroism and strength and honor and defense of the weak and
00:59:13promotion of virtue and, and so on.
00:59:16But I really hated the movie and I hated the movie because the director had
00:59:24people sing the songs over and over and over again, and they sounded bad.
00:59:28Even really good singers like Hugh Jackman and, uh, Anne Hathaway, like
00:59:33people who are really good singers.
00:59:34And, uh, even, um, Russell Crowe, who's actually was in a band when he was
00:59:38younger, is not a bad singer, but just sounded terrible.
00:59:41They went more for big names and acting and they should have sung it in a studio
00:59:44and lip synced it so that it sounds beautiful.
00:59:47You don't want it to be here's here's like someone singing in the street.
00:59:51Nobody sounds good.
00:59:51Same Freddie Mercury sounds like crap singing in the street.
00:59:54You got to get a little echo studio.
00:59:56My God, make it sound beautiful.
00:59:58Make the recordings as beautiful as the music is.
01:00:01But instead the director was like, sing it again, again, more again.
01:00:05And it's like, oh my God.
01:00:07Horrendous.
01:00:09Horrendous.
01:00:11So yeah, I thought it was a absolutely, uh, appallingly, uh, bad.
01:00:16And I don't think, uh, I don't think Hugh Jackman was the guy.
01:00:20I really don't.
01:00:21Hugh Jackman was not the guy for it.
01:00:23Uh, you need somebody barrel-chested like Cole Malkinson.
01:00:28Can you hear the people sing, sing the songs of angry men?
01:00:38It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again.
01:00:43Oh, it's great stuff.
01:00:45When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drum.
01:00:50Oh, so good.
01:00:52There is a light about to break, but tomorrow comes.
01:00:58So good.
01:01:00Um,
01:01:11ah, so good.
01:01:16Will you join in our crusade who will be strong and stand with me beyond the
01:01:21barricade, is there a world you long to see?
01:01:25Oh, so good.
01:01:27So good.
01:01:28So yeah.
01:01:32All right.
01:01:33It's not many good movies these days that are not just blatant propaganda.
01:01:36Yeah.
01:01:37Yeah.
01:01:372016, 2017 was like the crossover year after that.
01:01:41It all went to crap.
01:01:47All right.
01:01:48Um, thank you for what you do and creating a community
01:01:52where three thinkers can gather.
01:01:53Oh, thank you.
01:01:54I appreciate that.
01:01:55Thank you for being here.
01:01:55The Silicon Valley people are also being recruited says someone by Peter Teal to
01:02:01set up this government structure based on the thoughts of Mencius mold bug,
01:02:05AKA Curtis Marvin, it's called neo reaction slash neo-cameralism.
01:02:10The idea is a mega CEO as philosopher King.
01:02:19What's your take on revisionist history?
01:02:21I saw a podcast with Douglas Murray getting defensive about people being
01:02:23critical about Winston Churchill's actions during world war two, world war one.
01:02:27Oh, Winston Churchill with Gallipoli.
01:02:29I mean, I know something about Churchill.
01:02:31I can't, I read, I can't even tell you how many books on Churchill because he's
01:02:34a character in my novel almost.
01:02:37So yeah, what he did in Gallipoli and in world war one was absolutely
01:02:40appalling and disastrous.
01:02:48A French version is always great.
01:02:51Phantom of the opera.
01:02:52Uh, I thought the first half was good.
01:02:56I thought the second half was just retarded.
01:02:58All right.
01:02:59Um, yeah, the, the, I love it when they layer over the songs, uh, and they all
01:03:04work together, uh, just gives you goosebumps, right?
01:03:07Are you looking forward to the, am I racist movie?
01:03:09Um, I mean, I probably watch it at some point, but, uh, but you know, it's, it's
01:03:19such an obvious grift and so obviously hypocritical that, uh, it's sort of like,
01:03:27you know, Democrats are the real racist stuff.
01:03:29It doesn't really mean much to me.
01:03:35There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes.
01:03:39Yeah.
01:03:39So good.
01:03:40So good.
01:03:41That that's like divinely inspired music.
01:03:45Did the guy from the rage call and ever talk about regret and send you a message?
01:03:49I really couldn't tell you.
01:03:50I'm so sorry.
01:03:51I'm so sorry.
01:03:52And not too many people get back to me about prior call-ins and, um, it's a little
01:03:56tough to remember because you just listened to it.
01:03:58And so it's fresh in your mind, but, uh, I live very much in the
01:04:01moment when it comes to call-ins.
01:04:03So, all right.
01:04:06Uh, last questions, comments, challenges, issues.
01:04:11It must be to be able to sing like Carl Milkinson.
01:04:13He actually did a whole album, Broadway songs.
01:04:16It ain't necessarily so in summertime and it's just, ah, beautiful, just beautiful.
01:04:23Just beautiful.
01:04:26Yeah.
01:04:26I mean the racism stuff, the Marxists didn't have any luck with class, so they
01:04:31just went with sex and then when that burned out, they went with race and
01:04:34they're just always trying to find ways to set people up for sex.
01:04:37It's a feels, feels very old hat to me, if that makes sense.
01:04:45Matt is subconsciously principled, but not as rational.
01:04:47Otherwise you guys are similar.
01:04:49I think.
01:04:51Yeah.
01:04:51And it's a good family man for sure.
01:04:52It seems to be a good family man.
01:04:58All right.
01:04:58Well, thanks everyone so much for dropping by.
01:05:00Sorry.
