Adam K: Hello, monsieur.

0:03

Aaron: Yeah.

0:07

Adam K: Yes. Yes. Have you been on hold long, sir?

0:10

Adam K: How can I help you?

0:12

Aaron: Um, I need to know what the melting point of gold is.

0:17

Aaron: Just kidding.

0:18

Aaron: I figured it out yesterday.

0:20

Adam K: It's pretty, pretty low.

0:22

Adam K: Actually, I think you can do it with a campfire these days.

0:25

Aaron: Actually, it's it's not that low.

0:27

Aaron: I think it's like two thousand degrees.

0:30

Adam K: Yeah.

0:30

Aaron: Um, but if you have no way to control the temperature of,

0:34

Adam K: Mhm.

0:34

Aaron: say, the flame, you're using

0:36

Adam K: Yeah.

0:37

Aaron: the torch, uh, act act is what it's actually, but,

0:40

Adam K: Yeah.

0:40

Aaron: um,

0:41

Adam K: The thing used for girders.

0:43

Aaron: yeah.

0:44

Adam K: Mhm.

0:44

Aaron: Um, now I know why the towers

0:47

Aaron: fell because of, uh, the intense

0:51

Aaron: heat.

0:52

Adam K: Because someone was trying to

0:53

Adam K: work on their own personal gold

0:54

Adam K: project.

0:56

Aaron: Yeah. In the middle of a terrorist attack.

1:02

Adam K: Oh, boy.

1:04

Adam K: Well, how are you?

1:07

Aaron: Um, actually, uh, under the weather, so not

1:11

Adam K: You,

1:11

Aaron: great.

1:11

Adam K: you and everyone in my close circle.

1:15

Aaron: Yeah. I'm told it's Covid season again, but I, I thought I got

1:19

Aaron: the, the vaccine

1:21

Adam K: Mhm.

1:21

Aaron: and then, um.

1:23

Adam K: Which. Which model though?

1:24

Adam K: Which year?

1:25

Aaron: Yeah, well that was the thing I checked my CVS and, uh, it was

1:30

Aaron: two years ago that I did that.

1:32

Aaron: I was like, I just did that.

1:33

Adam K: Mhm.

1:33

Aaron: Nope. Um.

1:34

Adam K: But the fun thing with it being the year twenty twenty six is it

1:38

Adam K: could be measles.

1:39

Adam K: It could be some weird salad virus, norovirus.

1:43

Aaron: Yeah.

1:44

Adam K: Um, you know, everything's just coming back and arguably will

1:48

Adam K: make us stronger or all dead.

1:50

Adam K: Maybe we

1:50

Aaron: Oh, that.

1:51

Adam K: won't have to wait on the AI.

1:52

Adam K: What do you would you freak out about?

1:54

Adam K: What did you forget?

1:55

Aaron: I gotta, I gotta, uh,

1:57

Adam K: Meeting.

1:57

Aaron: remember to redo

1:58

Adam K: Uh.

1:58

Aaron: my voter registration.

2:00

Aaron: That just reminded me.

2:01

Adam K: The thing you posted telling everyone else to remember.

2:05

Aaron: Well, do as I say, not as I do.

2:08

Aaron: Uh,

2:08

Adam K: Um.

2:08

Aaron: I need to figure out how to vote.

2:15

Adam K: Usually by showing up.

2:17

Aaron: Yeah, well, I think you can, like, even if your registration

2:21

Aaron: is fucked up.

2:22

Aaron: I think you can still show up and they'll sort it out, or

2:26

Aaron: they'll beat you with batons when you're there.

2:28

Aaron: I can't remember,

2:28

Adam K: I was going

2:29

Aaron: but.

2:29

Adam K: to say.

2:29

Adam K: So the process now is you.

2:31

Adam K: They delegate you an Ice agent

2:33

Adam K: and you talk beforehand, and

2:34

Adam K: they go in the voting booth with

2:36

Adam K: you and

2:37

Aaron: Yeah.

2:37

Adam K: they help ease the process.

2:39

Adam K: And if you're

2:39

Aaron: Yeah.

2:39

Adam K: having any sort of trouble, um, they will break your hands and

2:43

Aaron: They'll tase your balls.

2:44

Adam K: yeah, until you, you hit the right bubble or whatever.

2:50

Adam K: However it's done, I don't know, I vote by mail like a

2:53

Aaron: Do

2:53

Adam K: Civil

2:53

Aaron: you.

2:53

Adam K: War

2:53

Aaron: Do

2:53

Adam K: veteran.

2:53

Aaron: you.

2:55

Adam K: Uh, yeah, they just sent it to us.

2:56

Adam K: I mean, I could just go to the church around the corner.

2:59

Adam K: Sometimes I do that.

3:00

Aaron: Yeah.

3:00

Adam K: Um, but then I have to wait in line.

3:02

Adam K: I gotta talk to people and, you know, talk to the Ice agents.

3:06

Adam K: I don't want to do that.

3:07

Aaron: Yeah. Um, that's I've never

3:10

Aaron: voted by mail and I here's the

3:13

Aaron: thing.

3:13

Aaron: Uh, I don't trust it.

3:15

Aaron: Not because of, of Donald Trump,

3:18

Aaron: just because of, um, my

3:21

Aaron: inability to.

3:23

Aaron: I need someone there.

3:24

Aaron: I need a septuagenarian there pointing at what I need to do.

3:28

Aaron: So I make sure I do it right.

3:30

Adam K: Okay.

3:30

Aaron: And I just know if I send it in

3:32

Aaron: by mail, I'm going to do

3:33

Aaron: something wrong.

3:34

Adam K: Okay.

3:34

Aaron: Not that the process is flawed, but I just, you know.

3:37

Adam K: Ken Paxton wins by one vote, which

3:40

Aaron: Uh.

3:40

Adam K: could have been changed by one

3:42

Adam K: sick man with all sorts of

3:44

Adam K: diseases.

3:45

Aaron: I always thought it would be

3:47

Aaron: like, it's a good setup for

3:49

Aaron: something where it's, there's a

3:52

Aaron: recount and there's, they know

3:54

Aaron: before the recount, it was one

3:56

Aaron: vote.

3:57

Aaron: And they they decide it's this

3:59

Aaron: one person that they need to

4:01

Aaron: convince.

4:02

Adam K: Well, wouldn't

4:02

Aaron: Um.

4:03

Adam K: it be

4:03

Aaron: Yeah.

4:03

Adam K: three people?

4:07

Aaron: How's that?

4:08

Adam K: To tip the vote one way or the other?

4:10

Adam K: Or would that be more interesting?

4:14

Aaron: Yeah.

4:14

Adam K: It was like.

4:14

Aaron: I guess if you want to shit all over my idea, it would be.

4:17

Aaron: But

4:18

Adam K: I'm

4:18

Aaron: actually,

4:18

Adam K: just.

4:19

Aaron: it was just something I came up

4:20

Aaron: right then, so I'm not even

4:22

Aaron: holding to

4:22

Adam K: I'm

4:22

Aaron: it.

4:23

Adam K: guessing you watch jury duty or

4:25

Adam K: that recent trial of that woman

4:27

Adam K: in a wheelchair drowned all our

4:29

Adam K: kids.

4:30

Aaron: Yeah. Um. Was she in a wheelchair?

4:33

Adam K: I thought she was.

4:34

Aaron: I always say don't trust the disabled.

4:36

Aaron: Now I'm getting reaffirmed with that, so.

4:40

Adam K: Arguably the most dangerous when left unattended.

4:44

Aaron: Um,

4:44

Adam K: That's

4:44

Aaron: yeah.

4:44

Adam K: why we keep them in place.

4:46

Adam K: What?

4:47

Adam K: What's your point?

4:48

Adam K: What are you trying to say?

4:49

Aaron: It would be great to read, but

4:51

Aaron: use Pauly Shore again and do

4:54

Aaron: Basically the story of this

4:55

Aaron: trial.

4:56

Adam K: Mhm.

4:57

Aaron: And it's like, listen, I just think there's something, Brody,

5:01

Aaron: about drowning your kids, huh?

5:03

Aaron: Broseph.

5:04

Aaron: And everyone's like, shut the fuck up.

5:06

Adam K: Yeah.

5:06

Aaron: We

5:07

Adam K: They

5:07

Aaron: want

5:07

Adam K: just

5:07

Aaron: to get out of

5:07

Adam K: they're

5:07

Aaron: here.

5:08

Adam K: just beating him up.

5:09

Adam K: Look, as someone who survived a jury trial, uh,

5:13

Aaron: Mhm.

5:13

Adam K: a civil suit, which was boring as hell.

5:16

Adam K: I understand you sent me that

5:17

Adam K: video where it was basically

5:18

Adam K: like a video game of them voting

5:20

Adam K: on that.

5:21

Aaron: Yeah.

5:21

Adam K: It was a choose your own adventure, which I think is just

5:25

Adam K: the peak of meme culture now.

5:28

Adam K: Is that where we're making fake

5:31

Adam K: video game videos of real life

5:34

Adam K: tragedies?

5:36

Aaron: You

5:36

Adam K: Uh.

5:36

Aaron: know what sucks is, like, it

5:37

Aaron: probably be a fun game to play,

5:39

Aaron: but by the time you got it into

5:41

Aaron: some sort of, like, workable

5:42

Aaron: game,

5:43

Adam K: Oh. It's over.

5:43

Aaron: people

5:44

Adam K: Yeah,

5:44

Aaron: don't give

5:44

Adam K: yeah.

5:45

Aaron: a fuck anymore.

5:46

Adam K: No, it's it's like by the time the Slenderman movie comes out,

5:50

Adam K: people have moved on.

5:52

Adam K: You you took too long, people.

5:53

Adam K: I'm sorry.

5:54

Aaron: What would be a great game to make is, um, uh, uh, the so for

6:01

Aaron: twenty twenty twenty nine, uh, when the, I guess the transfer

6:06

Aaron: of power happens, you, I don't know what you would call it

6:08

Aaron: because I don't know if that's on January sixth again, but you

6:11

Aaron: create a game where you're trying to get into the capital

6:13

Aaron: and you can play either as Maga or as liberals, and you're

6:18

Aaron: trying to to storm the capital and get in to stop the vote, I

6:22

Aaron: think that'd be a great game.

6:23

Aaron: I think there's time

6:24

Adam K: If

6:24

Aaron: to

6:24

Adam K: you

6:24

Aaron: make

6:24

Adam K: play

6:24

Aaron: that

6:24

Adam K: as

6:24

Aaron: game.

6:24

Adam K: a liberal, you're just sitting on your in your living room

6:26

Adam K: watching it on TV.

6:27

Aaron: Well, you're on Reddit posting

6:29

Adam K: Yeah.

6:29

Aaron: saying someone should do something.

6:34

Adam K: You gotta power up your upvote ability.

6:38

Aaron: Um, it's like, God, I knew this was happening.

6:41

Aaron: The America is over.

6:43

Aaron: And it's like you said that fifteen years ago.

6:45

Aaron: But I mean, but really, this time it really is.

6:48

Adam K: Maybe it's been over for a long

6:50

Adam K: time and you're just now

6:51

Adam K: noticing.

6:53

Aaron: Yeah,

6:53

Adam K: thoughts

6:53

Aaron: that seems like a Reddit comment too.

6:55

Adam K: are.

6:57

Adam K: I mean, again, to change often is a slow burn.

7:01

Adam K: Um, I know we want to just flip a switch and be like, yeah,

7:05

Adam K: it's, uh, democracy's gone now, but it's like, okay, well, you

7:09

Adam K: just, you slowly start letting money into politics.

7:12

Adam K: It's like, it's kind of clear what's going to happen.

7:15

Adam K: Are we, are we that naive?

7:17

Aaron: I think I'd call the game insurrection twenty twenty nine.

7:20

Aaron: And basically it's kind of like

7:22

Aaron: a Madden thing, maybe even have

7:23

Aaron: John Madden doing the call, you

7:26

Aaron: know, as,

7:27

Adam K: Well,

7:27

Aaron: as

7:27

Adam K: should be Nicolas Cage doing it

7:29

Aaron: he

7:29

Adam K: to

7:30

Aaron: just

7:30

Adam K: promote

7:30

Aaron: comes

7:30

Adam K: the

7:30

Aaron: in

7:30

Adam K: movie.

7:30

Aaron: as, as a almost like a Clippy type or something

7:34

Adam K: Um.

7:34

Aaron: like that.

7:35

Aaron: It's like we're in two hours in which I don't know, what would

7:40

Aaron: John Madden be?

7:41

Adam K: There's

7:41

Aaron: What is

7:41

Adam K: a bit

7:41

Aaron: Frank?

7:41

Adam K: more fat.

7:42

Adam K: No, I don't know.

7:43

Adam K: That was.

7:43

Adam K: I don't know what that was.

7:44

Aaron: Here's the thing.

7:46

Aaron: Going in the capital there going in here, and then they're going

7:50

Aaron: in the side and then they go.

7:51

Aaron: No, I was

7:52

Adam K: Yeah,

7:52

Aaron: Frank Caliendo's version.

7:54

Adam K: I

7:54

Aaron: That's what

7:54

Adam K: don't

7:54

Aaron: I

7:55

Adam K: know.

7:55

Aaron: needed.

7:55

Adam K: Just do do.

7:56

Adam K: Hey, what's his name?

7:57

Adam K: Kocel.

7:59

Adam K: That's an

7:59

Aaron: Yeah.

7:59

Adam K: easier one

8:00

Aaron: Howard Cosell.

8:00

Adam K: that we

8:01

Aaron: Um.

8:01

Adam K: could sell or do.

8:02

Adam K: Uh, I don't know.

8:04

Aaron: How hard would it be to make that game?

8:06

Aaron: Can I tell

8:06

Adam K: Why are you

8:07

Aaron: me?

8:07

Adam K: asking me?

8:07

Adam K: I don't make video games.

8:08

Adam K: I just play them sometimes.

8:10

Aaron: You just comment on him and

8:11

Adam K: Yeah,

8:11

Aaron: criticize.

8:12

Adam K: I

8:12

Aaron: Criticize?

8:13

Adam K: I'm the lowest of the low.

8:15

Aaron: Yeah.

8:15

Adam K: I, I criticize without even applying a score, but I try to

8:21

Adam K: do that less I

8:22

Aaron: Yeah.

8:23

Adam K: am.

8:23

Aaron: So you can't be.

8:24

Aaron: Yeah. You can't be held accountable.

8:25

Adam K: Exactly.

8:26

Adam K: I have been held accountable in the past and it, it got me into

8:29

Adam K: a lot of trouble.

8:30

Adam K: So because I would say dumb shit, like it's like Skyrim with

8:34

Adam K: guns and that ended up selling millions of units and that

8:40

Adam K: helped their marketing campaign.

8:41

Adam K: And I got nothing.

8:42

Adam K: But that's okay, because I'm a dumb, dumb idiot.

8:46

Adam K: Uh, I was reading the news this morning, actually.

8:49

Adam K: Um, you might get a laugh out of

8:51

Adam K: this because I know you, you

8:52

Adam K: know, of the Halo franchise and

8:55

Adam K: how

8:55

Aaron: Yeah,

8:55

Adam K: long it's been around and

8:57

Aaron: yeah.

8:57

Adam K: how many jobs it it gave and

9:00

Aaron: Kind

9:00

Adam K: took

9:00

Aaron: of.

9:00

Adam K: away.

9:01

Aaron: Yeah.

9:01

Adam K: Yeah. So not even that long ago, maybe two years ago.

9:06

Adam K: I, I've lost track of it because

9:07

Adam K: I just kind of barely keep an

9:09

Adam K: eye.

9:09

Adam K: So whatever years ago, it was made by Bungie.

9:12

Adam K: Bungie

9:12

Aaron: Yeah.

9:12

Adam K: then sold it to Microsoft.

9:14

Adam K: Bungie

9:14

Aaron: Right.

9:15

Adam K: cut ties, they became

9:17

Adam K: independent and then got gobbled

9:19

Adam K: up by like another studio or

9:21

Adam K: remained independent.

9:22

Adam K: Either way, they're having their own trouble.

9:23

Adam K: They're trying to rectify all that anyway.

9:25

Adam K: They're off.

9:26

Adam K: Microsoft now owns Halo.

9:27

Adam K: They create a special studio specifically for Halo called

9:31

Adam K: three for three Studios, I think

9:32

Aaron: Yeah.

9:32

Adam K: that was called or industries three, four, three, whatever.

9:35

Adam K: And that's all they're working on.

9:37

Adam K: And they don't do anything meaningful or great.

9:40

Adam K: And it's mostly crap and it's

9:42

Adam K: like the best they can put out

9:43

Adam K: is like a, like a six out of

9:45

Adam K: ten.

9:46

Adam K: Um, I mean, they started out strong, like they did Halo four.

9:50

Adam K: I was like, okay, that was pretty good.

9:51

Adam K: It's a good start.

9:51

Adam K: It's

9:52

Aaron: Yeah.

9:52

Adam K: their first game or whatever.

9:53

Adam K: Um, but it was just dribble after that.

9:55

Adam K: Just bad, bad, bad, bad, bad.

9:57

Adam K: And then they said, we're rebranding, uh, recently and

10:00

Adam K: they said we're now Halo Studio and we only do Halo.

10:04

Adam K: And then they announced today that the people who make Call of

10:06

Adam K: Duty are making the next halo.

10:07

Adam K: So that didn't even last.

10:11

Aaron: Is that good?

10:12

Aaron: I mean,

10:13

Adam K: It's for the best,

10:14

Aaron: you

10:14

Adam K: I don't care.

10:15

Aaron: know, I'm not really like.

10:17

Aaron: I don't know anything about games past.

10:20

Adam K: Yeah.

10:20

Aaron: Uh, maybe Grand Theft Auto, Vice City, but, um, but Halo had a

10:27

Aaron: great, great story and great, uh, world that was built.

10:33

Aaron: Does

10:34

Adam K: Yeah.

10:34

Aaron: does.

10:34

Aaron: No.

10:35

Adam K: No

10:35

Aaron: Is

10:35

Adam K: no, no,

10:35

Aaron: it?

10:36

Adam K: it did, it did.

10:37

Aaron: Oh.

10:37

Adam K: Um, mostly because it just

10:38

Adam K: ripped off other things like

10:40

Adam K: James Cameron and everything

10:43

Adam K: else, uh, ring world, all these

10:44

Adam K: different things.

10:45

Adam K: But it was a nice amalgamation of all those things.

10:47

Adam K: I think that's, you know,

10:48

Adam K: obviously great artists steal

10:50

Adam K: sort

10:50

Aaron: Yeah.

10:50

Adam K: of thing.

10:50

Adam K: So like, uh, and it was fairly a, a fun plot.

10:55

Adam K: It didn't hit you too hard over the head with it.

10:58

Adam K: And it was just like it.

10:59

Adam K: Mostly what it came down to was like it was a first person

11:02

Adam K: shooter that worked on the console that played really well.

11:04

Adam K: You

11:04

Aaron: Yeah.

11:04

Adam K: know, after GoldenEye and GoldenEye was, I mean, by

11:09

Adam K: today's standards, pretty rough.

11:11

Adam K: Um,

11:11

Aaron: Yeah.

11:11

Adam K: so yeah, it just, it was like the perfect storm of this, like

11:18

Adam K: cool sci fi game.

11:19

Adam K: It just captured like a moment.

11:21

Adam K: And that moment has long since passed.

11:24

Adam K: So I am I'm just curious to see

11:26

Adam K: like, I just don't care anymore

11:28

Adam K: because

11:28

Aaron: Yeah.

11:29

Adam K: they've been parading this husk around.

11:32

Adam K: Uh, the voice actors, eighty years old, um, TV show was just,

11:37

Adam K: they made a TV show that was like just terrible.

11:40

Aaron: Was that.

11:40

Aaron: Did I make that

11:42

Adam K: No,

11:42

Aaron: okay?

11:44

Adam K: you had very little to do with it.

11:46

Aaron: Okay.

11:46

Adam K: Probably had some part with it.

11:48

Adam K: Um,

11:48

Aaron: Yeah,

11:48

Adam K: but

11:48

Aaron: maybe I was passed on it.

11:50

Adam K: but

11:50

Aaron: Yeah.

11:51

Adam K: yeah, I'm just like, I'm sort of beyond the era of caring because

11:54

Adam K: I think that the people who took it over, over commercialized it

11:58

Adam K: and ran it into the ground.

12:01

Adam K: Oh so much.

12:02

Adam K: And then I don't know.

12:03

Adam K: Yeah.

12:03

Adam K: The last like campaign I played, it was just it felt like, I

12:10

Adam K: don't know, a ninth graders rendition of like, what a

12:13

Adam K: villain should be.

12:13

Adam K: He like calls you every thirty minutes and he's like, I'm going

12:17

Adam K: to destroy you.

12:18

Adam K: I'm the bad guy.

12:19

Adam K: Or like, cool, tell, don't show.

12:22

Aaron: What

12:22

Adam K: This

12:22

Aaron: what

12:22

Adam K: is

12:22

Aaron: got

12:22

Adam K: nice.

12:23

Aaron: what got you off on this Halo tangent?

12:26

Aaron: This

12:26

Adam K: Oh,

12:26

Aaron: Bungie thing.

12:27

Adam K: today they announced that the people who make Call of Duty

12:30

Adam K: Activision, they're just

12:31

Aaron: Oh.

12:31

Adam K: taking it over now.

12:32

Adam K: But it was just funny because

12:33

Adam K: they formed this whole new

12:34

Adam K: studio where like, we're doing

12:36

Adam K: it guys, we're we're gloves are

12:39

Adam K: off.

12:39

Adam K: We're we're rebranded Halo studio done.

12:42

Adam K: Not even a thing anymore.

12:44

Aaron: Having been a part of that kind of world.

12:48

Aaron: I think about the people who there's a weird thing.

12:52

Aaron: There's a cognitive dissonance you have to engage in with

12:54

Aaron: something like that because you're not making anything new

12:58

Aaron: and you're riding the coattails of something that, I mean, it's,

13:04

Aaron: it's a dying star.

13:06

Aaron: And for that to be shut down, you know, you did all this

13:11

Aaron: convincing of yourself that you were making something that

13:15

Aaron: people were excited about and la la la and all this stuff.

13:17

Aaron: And, and you were ignoring the

13:18

Aaron: fact that it's existed for

13:19

Aaron: twenty five years and all these

13:21

Aaron: things.

13:22

Aaron: And then it just kind of is done and over.

13:26

Aaron: There's really there's a crisis that happens internally.

13:30

Aaron: I think maybe

13:31

Adam K: Maybe

13:31

Aaron: I'm just projecting,

13:31

Adam K: it

13:32

Aaron: but.

13:32

Adam K: also, it could very well lead to

13:35

Adam K: a renaissance because nostalgia

13:37

Adam K: is worth more than anything

13:39

Adam K: else.

13:40

Adam K: So

13:40

Aaron: Uh.

13:40

Adam K: it might come back around.

13:42

Adam K: I don't know.

13:43

Adam K: Um. I mean, look, they remade doom and it was great.

13:48

Adam K: So I have hope for that.

13:49

Adam K: You know, after years of it sort

13:51

Adam K: of kind of being a shadow of its

13:53

Adam K: former self.

13:53

Adam K: They made something in twenty sixteen that was like pretty

13:57

Adam K: badass and captured the magic of that original game.

14:00

Adam K: So who

14:01

Aaron: Yeah.

14:01

Adam K: knows?

14:02

Adam K: Um, even actually, I don't think people talk about it enough, but

14:05

Adam K: the, um, the Wolfenstein remakes that they did.

14:09

Adam K: I forget when twenty fifteen or something like

14:11

Aaron: Yeah.

14:11

Adam K: that.

14:11

Aaron: I was, I did have I did was involved with some of that on

14:15

Adam K: The game.

14:15

Aaron: the marketing end.

14:17

Aaron: Yeah. I had to make some stuff for that.

14:19

Aaron: And I

14:19

Adam K: Yeah.

14:19

Aaron: remember that

14:20

Adam K: Okay.

14:21

Aaron: I,

14:21

Adam K: Was it wouldn't fly today

14:23

Aaron: I

14:23

Adam K: because you can't

14:24

Aaron: made

14:24

Adam K: do any.

14:25

Aaron: the game is what I'm saying.

14:26

Adam K: You

14:26

Aaron: Yeah.

14:26

Adam K: you made the game where you killed the Nazis.

14:29

Aaron: Now I had to what did I do for that?

14:33

Aaron: I don't even.

14:34

Aaron: Um, I did some RFP.

14:37

Aaron: I don't know.

14:38

Aaron: I was kind of blanking at that time.

14:40

Aaron: Whenever something would come in and they'd be like, we need to

14:43

Aaron: make a video for this.

14:44

Aaron: And I'd be like.

14:49

Adam K: Yeah. Naw, you shouldn't care.

14:51

Adam K: But I would say that's actually.

14:53

Aaron: Oh, that's right.

14:54

Aaron: I did the the Hitler Hitler thing.

14:56

Adam K: Hitler.

14:57

Adam K: Hitler.

14:57

Aaron: Yeah.

14:58

Adam K: Tell

14:58

Aaron: That was

14:58

Adam K: me more.

14:59

Aaron: no, that

15:00

Adam K: Look,

15:00

Aaron: was

15:00

Adam K: you

15:00

Aaron: for.

15:00

Adam K: didn't watch my stuff.

15:01

Adam K: I didn't watch yours.

15:02

Adam K: Other than

15:02

Aaron: I

15:03

Adam K: that,

15:03

Aaron: know.

15:03

Adam K: that

15:03

Aaron: Well,

15:03

Adam K: funeral

15:03

Aaron: I didn't watch

15:04

Adam K: video.

15:04

Aaron: my stuff either.

15:05

Aaron: Really?

15:07

Adam K: Uh. I am trying to sell my motorcycle.

15:11

Aaron: Really?

15:12

Adam K: Yeah. It's time to upgrade.

15:15

Aaron: Oh, okay.

15:15

Adam K: Five hundred cc's not doing it for me anymore.

15:19

Aaron: Yeah. It was weird how when I

15:20

Aaron: was writing, I was like, I, I

15:23

Aaron: was on one of your little side

15:24

Aaron: streets around your house, and I

15:25

Aaron: nailed it.

15:26

Aaron: And I was like.

15:28

Aaron: I was like, I'm not scared.

15:30

Adam K: Nor should you be.

15:31

Aaron: Yeah. And

15:32

Adam K: No.

15:32

Aaron: I do like, I reached that point on my ninja where, um, I nailed

15:39

Aaron: a gas, like to get on the on ramp to go to work or something.

15:43

Aaron: And, you know, the front tire had lift up a little bit.

15:45

Aaron: And, and, but it was very I

15:47

Aaron: always felt well, I mean, as in

15:49

Aaron: control as you can feel in those

15:51

Aaron: circumstances.

15:51

Adam K: A couple

15:51

Aaron: But

15:52

Adam K: drinks

15:52

Aaron: yeah,

15:52

Adam K: will do that.

15:52

Adam K: Yeah.

15:52

Aaron: yeah, I got to the point where I

15:54

Aaron: just wasn't scared of the bike

15:56

Aaron: anymore.

15:57

Aaron: And you should always have a healthy fear of the bike.

15:59

Adam K: Oh, I'm always afraid, but, um, for other reasons.

16:05

Aaron: Yeah. Also I can't did you ever

16:08

Aaron: I'm not saying drinking and

16:10

Aaron: driving, but did you ever have

16:11

Aaron: like

16:11

Adam K: No,

16:11

Aaron: a beer

16:12

Adam K: no,

16:12

Aaron: and go,

16:12

Adam K: no,

16:12

Aaron: okay, I.

16:13

Adam K: I was it's like, very adamant

16:17

Adam K: about having zero alcohol in my

16:19

Adam K: body.

16:19

Adam K: Like I would meet up with friends or something like that,

16:21

Adam K: like at a bar.

16:22

Adam K: And I would just do the n a and I'd just be very open and be

16:25

Adam K: like, I'm, I rode my bike.

16:27

Adam K: I can't drink like that's my life.

16:30

Adam K: I'm

16:30

Aaron: So

16:30

Adam K: sorry.

16:31

Aaron: like

16:31

Adam K: Yeah.

16:32

Aaron: one time I was at the Texas

16:33

Aaron: chili parlor and, uh, it was

16:36

Aaron: just down the street from my

16:37

Aaron: house, literally six blocks from

16:39

Aaron: my house.

16:40

Aaron: A straight shot from my house.

16:41

Aaron: And I'd had like two beers,

16:43

Aaron: which was, you know, still under

16:45

Aaron: the limit.

16:45

Aaron: And by like two drinks for me.

16:48

Aaron: And, uh, just had a couple beers and some dinner.

16:51

Aaron: I'm like, all right, I'll go.

16:52

Aaron: You know, I don't feel bad about this.

16:54

Aaron: You know, I'm not.

16:55

Aaron: There's nothing I feel nothing like usual.

16:58

Aaron: And so I get on the bike, but

17:00

Aaron: just even a beer when you get on

17:03

Aaron: a bike.

17:03

Aaron: I've heard people describe

17:04

Aaron: skiing's like this, like just

17:06

Aaron: one beer, and you're like, I

17:08

Aaron: can't.

17:09

Aaron: This is weird.

17:09

Aaron: Like, I don't I'm not as it maybe it's it's, you know, a

17:14

Aaron: thousandth of a second, you know, the difference.

17:18

Aaron: But on a bike, that means everything.

17:20

Adam K: Yeah.

17:21

Aaron: And it felt

17:21

Adam K: Which

17:22

Aaron: weird.

17:22

Adam K: is now.

17:23

Adam K: Now go with that information,

17:24

Adam K: knowing that there's a gaggle of

17:27

Adam K: Harley's outside what they call

17:28

Adam K: biker bars.

17:30

Adam K: And, uh, just, just, you know,

17:34

Adam K: reconcile with the fact that

17:35

Adam K: those guys are out on the road

17:37

Adam K: with

17:38

Aaron: I mean, I

17:38

Adam K: usually

17:38

Aaron: think

17:38

Adam K: no helmets.

17:39

Aaron: I remember if I ever told you this, but like, when I'd go, my

17:42

Aaron: mom worked in a bar, she worked in a lot of biker bars.

17:46

Aaron: But one of the, you know, inevitably in one of these bars

17:50

Aaron: once every month or so, there'd be the hat getting passed around

17:54

Aaron: like, uh, so, and so, you know, uh, laid the bike down and, you

17:59

Aaron: know, they're in the hospital or whatever, blah, blah, blah.

18:01

Aaron: And, uh, you know, it was almost

18:04

Aaron: inevitably, it was inevitably

18:05

Aaron: because they'd been boozing and

18:08

Aaron: they got hit and they were

18:09

Aaron: driving like three in the

18:10

Aaron: morning.

18:10

Aaron: And I've seen two people killed in front of me get hit by a car.

18:15

Aaron: And there were always dudes

18:17

Adam K: Inside

18:17

Aaron: without helmets

18:17

Adam K: the bar?

18:18

Aaron: on Harleys. Yeah, yeah.

18:20

Aaron: No, those with pool sticks.

18:21

Aaron: You know,

18:21

Adam K: No.

18:21

Aaron: when you're out, out on the road

18:23

Aaron: and it's like two in the

18:24

Aaron: morning.

18:25

Aaron: One was this guy was going into an intersection and, uh, he was

18:31

Aaron: riding through the intersection in a black SUV.

18:34

Aaron: Like typical took the unprotected green

18:37

Adam K: Mhm.

18:37

Aaron: right in front of him, and the motorcycle just smacked right

18:42

Aaron: into like full speed, forty or fifty miles an hour.

18:45

Aaron: And that guy was not he looked like just a pile of a person.

18:49

Adam K: Yeah.

18:50

Aaron: And then I was getting on my motorcycle one day in the

18:53

Aaron: afternoon, and my parking garage looked out into the street.

18:56

Aaron: And as I was getting on to turn on the motorcycle, this guy gets

19:00

Aaron: hit by another car and goes over the top of the car and is just

19:04

Aaron: lying in a pile on the street, and his bike is just got

19:07

Aaron: launched the other way.

19:08

Aaron: And I was like, yeah, all right.

19:13

Adam K: I saw some video a while ago where it's like.

19:16

Adam K: It's like, I think the universe

19:17

Adam K: is trying to tell me not to ride

19:18

Adam K: today.

19:18

Adam K: And it's a guy filling up at a gas station, and like, someone

19:22

Adam K: drives off with the pump inside still in the car, another

19:25

Adam K: person's like smoking.

19:26

Adam K: Another car backs up into it.

19:27

Adam K: It's all happening at once.

19:29

Adam K: It's like this.

19:31

Adam K: This might be an omen.

19:32

Adam K: Don't go out there.

19:34

Adam K: There's.

19:34

Adam K: And speaking of Ninja, there is a picture.

19:37

Adam K: I cannot find it.

19:38

Adam K: It made me laugh.

19:39

Adam K: It was like a Moto GP image where it's a crash, where the

19:44

Adam K: guy's flying off his ninja.

19:47

Adam K: I think it's a ninja.

19:48

Adam K: Probably not.

19:49

Adam K: I don't know regardless.

19:49

Adam K: But they.

19:50

Adam K: They photoshopped a samurai sword in his hand.

19:54

Adam K: It looks so cool because he's

19:56

Adam K: like, obviously he's flailing in

19:58

Adam K: the air.

19:59

Aaron: Yeah.

19:59

Adam K: Uh, he's gonna be fine.

20:01

Adam K: He's got one of those, you know, impact suits or whatever.

20:03

Adam K: But

20:03

Aaron: Yeah.

20:03

Adam K: the pose was so perfect to just, if I can't find it, I'm going to

20:08

Adam K: remake it and make it the thumbnail for this video.

20:10

Adam K: So, um, yeah,

20:13

Aaron: I don't know.

20:14

Adam K: anyway, that's my promise to you.

20:18

Aaron: I'm. I'm all for it.

20:19

Aaron: I'm thinking about.

20:20

Aaron: Man, I need to get this Craigslist.

20:25

Aaron: Um, let's see what kind of motorcycles around here.

20:28

Adam K: I, I am, I always see the Ducati monster for pretty cheap.

20:32

Adam K: And I'm like, there has to be a reason.

20:34

Aaron: Because these are nightmares to like.

20:37

Aaron: As far as maintenance goes, they're just.

20:39

Adam K: Ah!

20:40

Aaron: They are.

20:41

Aaron: Plus they have a. And some people like it, but they have a,

20:45

Aaron: an open plate clutch, I think is what it's called.

20:47

Aaron: Or a open side clutch.

20:49

Aaron: So you hear the clutch rattling as

20:51

Adam K: Oh!

20:51

Aaron: you're going.

20:52

Aaron: It's like.

20:54

Adam K: Huh?

20:54

Adam K: I think it was like Yamaha or someone.

20:57

Adam K: Uh, there's, like, people have

20:58

Adam K: done this in the past, but

21:00

Adam K: watching some video, I think

21:01

Adam K: it's like only Yamaha who still

21:02

Adam K: does this.

21:03

Adam K: When you come to a full stop, it

21:06

Adam K: will just auto go to neutral,

21:08

Adam K: which

21:08

Aaron: Huh.

21:09

Adam K: I was

21:09

Aaron: That's

21:09

Adam K: like, that's

21:10

Aaron: I.

21:10

Adam K: nice.

21:11

Adam K: I think that's nice because going from it's easier to go

21:15

Adam K: from one to neutral than it is to go from two to neutral, at

21:19

Adam K: least on my bike.

21:20

Aaron: I don't I don't know if I'd like that because what if you're

21:23

Aaron: about to get into some shit and you I don't know, like I being

21:28

Aaron: able to take off really quick and get out of something is

21:31

Adam K: Yeah.

21:31

Aaron: it's like auto stop sounding for me.

21:34

Aaron: Ooh, there's a Ducati Scrambler for seven grand.

21:37

Adam K: Yeah, but it's a Ducati and you're going to

21:40

Aaron: Bad credit, no credit.

21:41

Aaron: We can help

21:42

Adam K: know it's

21:42

Aaron: that.

21:42

Adam K: just.

21:43

Adam K: Yeah.

21:44

Aaron: Yeah, that's the kind of person

21:45

Adam K: I'm

21:45

Aaron: that gets

21:46

Adam K: I'm

21:46

Aaron: me.

21:46

Adam K: eyeing a Indian FTR sport.

21:50

Adam K: That's that's what I'm looking at.

21:51

Aaron: Is that another like bot or not, Bob?

21:54

Aaron: Yeah.

21:54

Adam K: No

21:55

Aaron: Kind

21:55

Adam K: no

21:55

Aaron: of

21:55

Adam K: no

21:55

Aaron: a Bob Bergen.

21:55

Adam K: no

21:56

Aaron: No.

21:56

Adam K: FDR it's a full track racer.

22:00

Adam K: Full

22:00

Aaron: Indian

22:00

Adam K: track flat

22:01

Aaron: in

22:01

Adam K: track racer.

22:01

Adam K: Sorry.

22:02

Adam K: Not full track.

22:02

Aaron: Indian.

22:03

Aaron: FTR.

22:04

Adam K: Yeah. It's

22:04

Aaron: Let's

22:04

Adam K: discontinued

22:04

Aaron: see here.

22:05

Adam K: because it didn't sell well.

22:07

Aaron: Uh, like all Indian motorcycles.

22:09

Adam K: No no no. Well they send

22:11

Aaron: Oh, that looks pretty good.

22:12

Adam K: you typed in, looked up the look

22:14

Adam K: up the twenty twenty three

22:15

Adam K: sport.

22:16

Aaron: I'm looking at the sport.

22:17

Aaron: This might be

22:17

Adam K: Yeah.

22:18

Aaron: a twenty twenty six.

22:19

Aaron: I doubt it's much different.

22:20

Adam K: No because they discontinued it in twenty twenty four.

22:22

Aaron: Oh, for

22:23

Adam K: Yeah.

22:24

Aaron: sport.

22:25

Adam K: Yeah.

22:26

Aaron: Let's see.

22:27

Adam K: Is a nice bike.

22:29

Adam K: It's very nice.

22:30

Adam K: Twelve

22:30

Aaron: Uh,

22:30

Adam K: hundred cc.

22:32

Aaron: yeah, this looks, uh.

22:35

Aaron: And you're going to ride this around LA?

22:36

Adam K: I might pick it up in San Diego and drive it back.

22:40

Aaron: Oh, that'd be a great ride.

22:41

Aaron: And now you're getting me.

22:43

Aaron: I need to get a motorcycle, but

22:44

Aaron: I don't need to get a

22:45

Aaron: motorcycle.

22:46

Adam K: Yeah.

22:47

Aaron: However, that's the only thing I can fit in my garage right now,

22:50

Aaron: so maybe that is the key.

22:52

Adam K: I man, if you could, I would.

22:56

Adam K: Okay.

22:58

Adam K: When we move to the same state and

23:00

Aaron: Uh.

23:00

Adam K: we're nearest neighbors, I would

23:03

Adam K: love to find a project bike, a

23:07

Adam K: ideally a like nineteen eighty

23:08

Adam K: six Honda Goldwing and rip that

23:12

Adam K: thing apart and make it into a

23:13

Adam K: cafe racer.

23:14

Adam K: That is like my dream project

23:16

Aaron: Why the Goldwing?

23:17

Adam K: because

23:18

Aaron: It's.

23:18

Adam K: it has so

23:18

Aaron: It's

23:18

Adam K: much

23:18

Aaron: pretty.

23:19

Adam K: shit on it.

23:20

Adam K: And it's, I think it's, I forget it's a pretty beefy engine.

23:24

Aaron: Well, it's beefy, but it's pretty.

23:26

Aaron: It's a heavy bike,

23:27

Adam K: Yeah,

23:27

Aaron: though.

23:27

Adam K: but if you take all the crap off of it.

23:29

Aaron: I think it's still pretty heavy.

23:31

Adam K: No, it's just plastic.

23:33

Aaron: I don't think so.

23:36

Adam K: I'm

23:36

Aaron: I

23:36

Adam K: just

23:36

Aaron: think

23:36

Adam K: watching.

23:36

Aaron: my great.

23:37

Adam K: I watch

23:37

Aaron: My

23:37

Adam K: videos

23:37

Aaron: great

23:37

Adam K: of

23:37

Aaron: grandpa.

23:38

Adam K: people doing it.

23:39

Adam K: He

23:39

Aaron: Yeah.

23:39

Adam K: has

23:39

Aaron: Okay.

23:39

Adam K: one.

23:40

Aaron: No. Well he's dead.

23:41

Aaron: He's been dead for, like, twenty two years.

23:44

Aaron: But

23:44

Adam K: Better?

23:44

Aaron: he had. Yeah. Well, I'm trying to get.

23:47

Aaron: He had a parade bike that he'd ride around with the Masons and

23:51

Aaron: the Shriners, you know,

23:53

Adam K: Mhm.

23:53

Aaron: and I think it was it was a Honda.

23:56

Aaron: It wasn't a gold wing, but it

23:58

Aaron: was like another one of those

23:59

Aaron: heavy ones with saddlebags and

24:01

Aaron: shit.

24:02

Aaron: But then he also had a light one

24:04

Aaron: that he would do, I guess,

24:05

Aaron: tricks on.

24:06

Aaron: Not like not sexual tricks, but like parade tricks.

24:10

Adam K: He. He said it was his cruising bike.

24:13

Aaron: Yeah. I just want to cruise and don't tell the family.

24:18

Aaron: Why,

24:18

Adam K: Why?

24:18

Aaron: grandpa?

24:19

Adam K: Cruising is fun.

24:21

Aaron: But I'd like to get that motorcycle.

24:23

Aaron: And then I'd also like to get a Shriner hat, too, and just, you

24:28

Aaron: know, drive around with my

24:29

Adam K: Yeah,

24:29

Aaron: fez going,

24:29

Adam K: yeah.

24:30

Adam K: Doubles as a helmet.

24:31

Aaron: yeah, just

24:32

Adam K: There's.

24:33

Aaron: basically it's just a popcorn

24:34

Aaron: cup for your brain when you

24:36

Aaron: fucking die.

24:38

Adam K: There was a recent movie that came out with Austin Butler's

24:41

Adam K: like the Bike Riders or something like that.

24:43

Adam K: Some something about like the

24:45

Aaron: Yeah.

24:45

Adam K: nineteen.

24:45

Aaron: I watched some clips of it.

24:46

Adam K: Yeah. Um, but similar to what you're talking about, like one

24:50

Adam K: of your, you know, passing the hat around of the guy who, you

24:52

Adam K: know, died or whatever they do a cutaway to their like, uh, you

24:56

Adam K: know, one of our, one of our boys, what do they call it?

25:00

Adam K: One of our pledges, I don't know,

25:02

Aaron: One of our cruisers.

25:02

Adam K: one of our crew.

25:03

Adam K: Yeah. It's like he went out and like, how'd it happen?

25:06

Adam K: And it's him going like twenty

25:07

Adam K: five in a neighborhood and a car

25:09

Adam K: backs out and he's just not

25:10

Adam K: wearing a helmet or paying

25:11

Adam K: attention.

25:12

Adam K: He just

25:12

Aaron: Yeah.

25:12

Adam K: hits the back and was like, just a helmet.

25:16

Adam K: Probably would have would have

25:18

Adam K: saved you a lot of a lot of

25:19

Adam K: sadness there.

25:21

Adam K: But you

25:22

Aaron: Are

25:23

Adam K: know.

25:23

Aaron: they like none of the.

25:24

Aaron: I had such bad.

25:26

Aaron: I mean, I had bad influences growing up, of course, but like

25:29

Adam K: You

25:29

Aaron: my

25:29

Adam K: have them

25:29

Aaron: motorcycle

25:30

Adam K: now?

25:30

Aaron: influences, they they were just they were all banditos or

25:35

Adam K: Yeah.

25:36

Aaron: pool sharks.

25:37

Aaron: And they'd call each other gay for wearing helmets.

25:41

Aaron: So it's like not, you know, not

25:42

Aaron: that they ever had a chance, but

25:43

Aaron: like, if someone sometimes like

25:46

Aaron: an outsider type person on an,

25:49

Aaron: an Indian for sport would come

25:51

Aaron: up to the bar and park out front

25:52

Aaron: and then just get the shittiest

25:54

Aaron: looks from all of the well,

25:56

Aaron: bandidos might just kick their

25:57

Aaron: ass, but

25:58

Adam K: Yeah.

25:58

Aaron: everyone else is just like, nice bike.

26:01

Aaron: It's like, thanks.

26:04

Adam K: Yeah. I don't like the the mob mentality of we all need

26:10

Adam K: Harleys, which is like also.

26:11

Adam K: Okay.

26:11

Adam K: Good luck with that.

26:13

Adam K: Um,

26:13

Aaron: This is a shitty bike

26:14

Adam K: yeah,

26:14

Aaron: too.

26:15

Adam K: let's support this dying brand

26:16

Adam K: that could give a shit about

26:17

Adam K: you.

26:18

Adam K: Um, zero innovation and just kind of, you know, writing,

26:23

Adam K: writing on their history for as long as they possibly can.

26:25

Adam K: Look, I went to the museum

26:26

Aaron: Yeah,

26:27

Adam K: in Milwaukee.

26:28

Aaron: they're

26:28

Adam K: I know

26:29

Aaron: in a tough spot because it's like

26:31

Adam K: they can't change.

26:32

Aaron: they can't change.

26:34

Aaron: They're they're in that thing

26:35

Aaron: where they're at their hostages

26:37

Aaron: to their clients who don't want

26:40

Aaron: or their customers who don't

26:41

Aaron: want anything to do with them,

26:42

Aaron: but also don't want them to

26:44

Aaron: change.

26:44

Adam K: Yeah.

26:45

Aaron: And, you know, it's classic whatever story, but.

26:48

Adam K: Yeah, I think they spun off Livewire into its own company.

26:51

Aaron: Um.

26:51

Adam K: Um, I do want to ride an electric motorcycle.

26:55

Adam K: I don't want to buy one.

26:56

Adam K: Um, I'm just curious what it's

26:59

Adam K: like compared to, like, a normal

27:00

Adam K: bike.

27:01

Adam K: Just just because I got, I did the test drive in electric cars.

27:05

Adam K: Like I did not realize how different driving electric cars

27:07

Adam K: from a normal car.

27:09

Adam K: So I was like, I just want to try it just so I know.

27:12

Adam K: But, um, they still don't make sense.

27:14

Adam K: They're, they're overly priced and, uh, I don't know.

27:19

Adam K: Yeah.

27:20

Adam K: They don't last.

27:20

Adam K: The range is next to nothing.

27:22

Adam K: And

27:23

Aaron: Yeah, no batteries

27:24

Adam K: Even

27:24

Aaron: and stuff.

27:25

Adam K: even if gas goes up to ten dollars a gallon, you're still

27:29

Adam K: only filling up a two gallon tank at most,

27:31

Aaron: Mhm.

27:31

Adam K: and it lasts you for three months.

27:34

Adam K: So.

27:34

Aaron: I remember that person.

27:36

Aaron: We know that when they got that electric bike and

27:39

Adam K: Uh.

27:39

Aaron: said something like, you know, that the fact that motorcycle

27:44

Aaron: makes a lot of noise and that protects you, that's a myth.

27:47

Aaron: And then he zoomed off silently.

27:49

Aaron: I was like, he's going to be killed.

27:53

Adam K: Uh.

27:53

Aaron: I always hear motorcycles before I see them.

27:56

Adam K: Uh,

27:57

Aaron: Uh,

27:57

Adam K: yeah.

27:57

Aaron: almost typically, but.

27:58

Aaron: Yeah.

27:59

Adam K: Well, I mean, like, I, I'm not one of those people who will,

28:01

Adam K: like lane split like an asshole.

28:04

Adam K: Um,

28:04

Aaron: Mhm.

28:04

Adam K: there, there's this again.

28:07

Adam K: I road like, just a regular

28:09

Adam K: bicycle around LA, and you learn

28:11

Adam K: really fast that you're not the

28:13

Adam K: alpha on

28:15

Aaron: No.

28:15

Adam K: the road.

28:16

Adam K: Uh, you are at everyone else's mercy, so you need to be twice

28:21

Adam K: as aware as everyone else.

28:22

Adam K: You need to be looking how other cars are driving.

28:23

Adam K: So like, I just took that into

28:25

Adam K: the motorcycle driving where

28:26

Adam K: it's like, and it's even worse

28:27

Adam K: today because everyone's on

28:28

Adam K: their phones.

28:29

Adam K: But,

28:29

Aaron: Yeah.

28:30

Adam K: uh, at the very least, I can rev

28:32

Adam K: nearby not to be like, I'm

28:34

Adam K: showing off.

28:35

Adam K: It's just like, um, I'm next to you just so you can see me.

28:39

Adam K: Um, often people look annoyed

28:41

Adam K: because they look up from their

28:43

Adam K: phones, like, how dare you

28:44

Adam K: interrupt this?

28:44

Adam K: And it's like, oh, maybe roll up your window, turn on your AC.

28:47

Adam K: I don't know, maybe your AC is not working.

28:49

Aaron: Is it irresponsible to have a family and have a motorcycle?

28:55

Aaron: I'm, I don't I'm positing this

28:58

Aaron: question because it's always

29:01

Aaron: that's why people get rid of

29:03

Aaron: motorcycles and not why it's a

29:05

Aaron: reason why some people get rid

29:06

Aaron: of motorcycles

29:07

Adam K: I think it's

29:07

Aaron: because

29:07

Adam K: a good

29:07

Aaron: they're

29:07

Adam K: reason

29:08

Aaron: like.

29:08

Adam K: to I, if I, if I had a child

29:10

Adam K: tomorrow, I would probably,

29:13

Adam K: yeah, sell it to just be done

29:15

Adam K: with it.

29:15

Adam K: Um.

29:16

Aaron: I think it'd be cool story as a kid to be like, I lost my father

29:20

Aaron: young because he,

29:21

Adam K: Oh yeah.

29:21

Aaron: he Yeah.

29:23

Adam K: my

29:23

Aaron: He

29:23

Adam K: dad

29:23

Aaron: was

29:23

Adam K: drove

29:23

Aaron: with the

29:23

Adam K: away

29:23

Aaron: Bandidos.

29:24

Adam K: in a motorcycle.

29:24

Adam K: That's my last memory of him.

29:26

Aaron: Yeah. He

29:28

Adam K: He

29:28

Aaron: said.

29:28

Adam K: said he was getting more beer on

29:30

Aaron: He said

29:30

Adam K: his.

29:30

Aaron: he was going up north to ride motorcycles

29:32

Adam K: He

29:32

Aaron: and.

29:32

Adam K: took the bike that he did tricks on.

29:34

Adam K: I didn't know what that meant.

29:36

Aaron: He learned from his great grandpa.

29:40

Adam K: They found all sorts of things jammed up in him.

29:43

Adam K: They thought it was a rival gang, but he wasn't in a gang.

29:49

Aaron: And I'm just thinking of this band.

29:51

Aaron: I guess I turned out pretty weird and

29:55

Adam K: I

29:55

Aaron: I

29:55

Adam K: think.

29:55

Aaron: have issues,

29:56

Adam K: I

29:57

Aaron: but

29:57

Adam K: don't like

29:57

Aaron: it could have been worse, I think.

29:58

Adam K: I'm not.

29:59

Adam K: I'm just not a fan of the biker gang culture.

30:02

Adam K: Not in the sense of like, gangs are bad or anything like that.

30:05

Adam K: It's just I don't want to belong to a group of people who are

30:10

Adam K: like part of me of like, why I like the motorcycles.

30:14

Adam K: It's very individualistic.

30:15

Adam K: Like, yeah, you can

30:16

Aaron: Right.

30:16

Adam K: have someone ride on the back.

30:18

Adam K: But I, I don't want to do that.

30:19

Aaron: A

30:19

Adam K: Um,

30:20

Aaron: bitch?

30:20

Aaron: You mean.

30:20

Adam K: Uh, your words, not mine.

30:24

Adam K: Um.

30:24

Aaron: Well, I

30:25

Adam K: I don't

30:25

Aaron: have

30:25

Adam K: want to

30:25

Aaron: the

30:25

Adam K: be.

30:25

Aaron: shirt.

30:26

Adam K: I don't want

30:26

Aaron: Yeah.

30:26

Adam K: to be responsible for another person's life on that thing.

30:29

Aaron: Yeah.

30:29

Adam K: If that makes sense.

30:31

Adam K: Um, it.

30:33

Adam K: Godspeed to the.

30:34

Adam K: The Gen Alpha's riding on those bird scooters with their

30:37

Adam K: girlfriends on the handlebars.

30:39

Adam K: Um, but that's a lot of responsibility for another

30:42

Adam K: person's life that you're giving to them, so I don't know.

30:46

Adam K: It's to me, it is a, it's a, I hate the, the freedom thing, but

30:51

Adam K: it's a personal responsibility.

30:53

Adam K: It's your own thing.

30:54

Adam K: And I, I could maybe ride with one other person, um, do like an

30:59

Adam K: Ian MacGregor type thing, but a gang is just, I don't know, it

31:05

Adam K: feels, uh, insecure.

31:08

Aaron: I. I thought about going to Sturgis.

31:12

Aaron: Uh, I was thinking about it in the end of last year.

31:15

Aaron: Beginning this year, I was

31:16

Adam K: Is

31:16

Aaron: like,

31:16

Adam K: that

31:17

Aaron: I

31:17

Adam K: a gay

31:17

Aaron: should

31:17

Adam K: bar?

31:17

Aaron: go.

31:18

Aaron: Yeah. I mean, it practically is now.

31:20

Aaron: Well, growing up, it was always about getting ready for Sturgis,

31:24

Aaron: going to Sturgis, going blah, blah, blah, blah.

31:26

Aaron: And now I see it.

31:27

Aaron: And, uh, I think that guy Richard Rollins from Gas Monkey

31:32

Aaron: Garage, uh, he he had, he's trying to revitalize.

31:37

Aaron: I mean, it's not like it's not, you know, vitalized, uh, there's

31:41

Aaron: still plenty of people, but it's like, definitely the everyone is

31:45

Aaron: mid fifties and older and it's just kind of they're not, I

31:51

Aaron: don't think they're attracting anyone younger because it just

31:54

Aaron: is shitty biker culture.

31:56

Adam K: You're

31:56

Aaron: You

31:56

Adam K: describing

31:56

Aaron: know, it's

31:57

Adam K: Hollywood

31:58

Aaron: Harley.

31:58

Adam K: and Burning Man. Yeah.

32:01

Aaron: Yeah. It's basically if I mean it's Harley Davidson.

32:06

Aaron: You know, in a nutshell is, is Sturgis what it looks like?

32:09

Aaron: But I still wanted to go just

32:10

Aaron: to, to see it and see what, you

32:12

Aaron: know, Evel Knievel was talking

32:14

Aaron: about.

32:15

Aaron: And, uh, I might still do that, but what I really want to do is

32:19

Aaron: I want to go to a car auction here soon and just just imagine

32:24

Aaron: buying or maybe buying.

32:26

Aaron: But I

32:28

Adam K: MM.

32:28

Aaron: want to go to Mecum, possibly in November in Vegas.

32:32

Aaron: And I want to, um, I want to drink a bunch and then I want

32:36

Aaron: to, I want to play chicken with, with, uh, auctions.

32:43

Aaron: Sorry, I'm sick and, um, but I want to bid on things that I

32:48

Aaron: have no intention of buying

32:49

Adam K: MM.

32:50

Aaron: and I want to see how close I can get to being stuck with a

32:54

Aaron: car just to feel something.

32:57

Adam K: Okay. This is good radio.

33:02

Adam K: I'm

33:02

Aaron: Um,

33:02

Adam K: looking at the lineup at Sturgis.

33:04

Aaron: yeah.

33:04

Adam K: Um, this seems to be a heavy,

33:07

Adam K: uh, this seems to happen in

33:08

Adam K: August.

33:09

Adam K: So you've missed the Sammy Hagar day.

33:11

Adam K: I'm sorry.

33:12

Aaron: With Sammy Hagar there,

33:13

Adam K: It was.

33:15

Aaron: he was not.

33:16

Adam K: Saturday, August eighth, twenty twenty six.

33:18

Adam K: Sammy Hagar and friends for more

33:21

Aaron: He doesn't

33:21

Adam K: than.

33:21

Aaron: have friends.

33:22

Adam K: That's true, I wonder, uh.

33:24

Aaron: Maybe that's why,

33:25

Aaron: subconsciously, I knew Sammy

33:27

Aaron: Hagar was going to be there, and

33:29

Aaron: I didn't even see anything about

33:31

Aaron: it.

33:31

Aaron: And I just like I had a calling

33:33

Aaron: inside of myself to go to

33:34

Aaron: Sturgis.

33:35

Adam K: In twenty twenty five, he

33:36

Adam K: released encore a Thank You,

34:20

Adam K: much.

34:20

Adam K: It's just a good time, you know?

34:22

Adam K: You see him at Trader Joe's?

34:25

Adam K: Just a little bit of blackface.

34:27

Aaron: Well, now I'm mad I missed Sturgis.

34:30

Adam K: Are you.

34:33

Aaron: No, because I just.

34:35

Aaron: Here's the thing.

34:36

Aaron: It's.

34:38

Aaron: It is.

34:38

Aaron: It's like going to the fountain of insecurity.

34:40

Aaron: You're right.

34:40

Aaron: It's like going to LA or Burning Man.

34:44

Aaron: You're just sitting there with a bunch of people who are like.

34:48

Aaron: They desperately want to have

34:50

Aaron: the biggest cock in the room,

34:52

Aaron: even though all of them have

34:53

Aaron: small cocks.

34:54

Aaron: So it's like, who has the biggest of the smallest cocks?

34:58

Aaron: And I just don't want to be around that.

35:00

Adam K: Yeah.

35:00

Aaron: I grew up around that and it just, but

35:03

Adam K: It's.

35:03

Aaron: I, I, I want to go to something that existed forty years ago.

35:08

Adam K: I'm just looking at the images of it.

35:12

Adam K: I guess they they sold, like, ride photos.

35:15

Adam K: Basically, they took photos of

35:16

Adam K: coming into the event, or I

35:18

Adam K: guess they took photos of people

35:19

Adam K: driving by

35:20

Aaron: Uh.

35:20

Adam K: and they're like, they're all

35:22

Adam K: like heavily watermarked and

35:23

Adam K: they're selling them like ride

35:25

Adam K: photos.

35:26

Aaron: Huh.

35:27

Adam K: I mean, I can just remove this

35:28

Adam K: watermark with AI, but I mean,

35:30

Adam K: none of these guys have a

35:30

Adam K: ChatGPT account, so maybe they

35:33

Adam K: do.

35:34

Aaron: So it's it's an amusement ride.

35:38

Aaron: Essentially, you go there, you offload your bike from the

35:41

Aaron: trailer outside of town, and then you ride in, and then it

35:46

Aaron: makes it look like you were on the road for a thousand miles.

35:49

Adam K: I just, I sent you a link of God's chosen people.

35:54

Aaron: Let's take a look.

35:55

Adam K: Yeah. And again, this is a part of I, I just clicked at, I think

36:00

Adam K: it was called like the photo booth or something.

36:03

Adam K: Um, yeah.

36:06

Adam K: Roadside photos is what they have.

36:08

Adam K: They have a link to it and it's people.

36:12

Adam K: I don't understand what happened here, but either way, they took

36:14

Adam K: photos of people like mid bike ride or some of them are stopped

36:18

Adam K: and posing, I'm not sure.

36:19

Adam K: And then they watermark them and offer to sell them to you.

36:22

Aaron: Is that my dad?

36:23

Adam K: Yeah.

36:26

Aaron: That might be.

36:28

Aaron: He doesn't know how to ride a motorcycle, but he.

36:32

Aaron: He talked about this maybe five years ago.

36:35

Aaron: He, um, he was like, yeah, I was going to go to the.

36:39

Aaron: He said he was going to go to the Harley Davidson store and I

36:42

Aaron: was going to get, um, I forget what it was.

36:46

Aaron: Bobber or something.

36:46

Aaron: It's like it's going to buy it and, uh, do it, but I decided to

36:50

Aaron: get the Firebird instead or something like that.

36:53

Aaron: And, um, I was like, dad, you've never ridden a motorcycle.

36:58

Aaron: You were just going to go buy a brand new Harley.

37:00

Aaron: And he's like, yeah, I wanted to get rides like that.

37:04

Aaron: I, I didn't even tell him it was a bad idea because he should

37:07

Aaron: have known it was.

37:08

Aaron: But it, you know, you're gonna lay that bike down

37:12

Adam K: Yeah.

37:13

Aaron: at least at least once.

37:16

Aaron: Really badly, but probably multiple times.

37:19

Adam K: That's why

37:19

Aaron: And

37:19

Adam K: you get

37:19

Aaron: knowing

37:19

Adam K: a gold wing.

37:19

Aaron: him,

37:20

Adam K: Yeah.

37:20

Aaron: he'd get the heaviest fucking one he could see.

37:25

Adam K: They break a lot.

37:26

Adam K: That's

37:27

Aaron: Yeah.

37:27

Adam K: my understanding.

37:28

Adam K: It's not a good bike.

37:30

Adam K: It's a loud

37:30

Aaron: Hold

37:30

Adam K: bike.

37:30

Aaron: on. I'm gonna.

37:32

Aaron: How do I mute this so I can have a coughing fit?

37:35

Adam K: I don't know.

37:37

Adam K: I guess

37:37

Aaron: Let's

37:37

Adam K: I can

37:37

Aaron: see.

37:37

Adam K: mute you.

37:38

Aaron: No

37:38

Adam K: There's

37:38

Aaron: no no.

37:38

Adam K: a there's

37:38

Aaron: Here,

37:39

Adam K: a giant

37:39

Aaron: I got

37:39

Adam K: mute

37:39

Aaron: it.

37:39

Adam K: button. Yeah. Uh, I guess I'll just vamp here.

37:43

Adam K: Uh, for a little bit.

37:45

Adam K: Um.

37:46

Aaron: Okay. I'm done.

37:47

Adam K: I know you're sick.

37:49

Adam K: How are you feeling about

37:51

Adam K: getting that, uh, Hvac video

37:54

Adam K: done?

37:55

Aaron: I feel good, that's what I'm doing today.

37:57

Aaron: So I just

37:57

Adam K: Okay.

37:57

Aaron: got done with my little, uh.

38:00

Aaron: Oh. I'm seeing.

38:01

Aaron: I'm seeing little floaters.

38:03

Aaron: That was a good cough.

38:04

Aaron: Um, my little project that I was working on, I just finished it.

38:10

Aaron: Um, and now I can do those scripts for

38:15

Adam K: Okay.

38:15

Aaron: the company.

38:17

Adam K: Yeah. Um, I got some doctor stuff I got to do this week.

38:21

Adam K: Um. And then I know you're going out of town, so, um, sooner we

38:26

Adam K: get those, the better.

38:27

Adam K: I'm going to also try to try to do something fun with Jev.

38:30

Adam K: I don't know if you've messed with it at all.

38:32

Aaron: Who's that?

38:34

Adam K: New neighbor.

38:35

Adam K: He owns

38:35

Aaron: Yep.

38:35

Adam K: a Harley.

38:36

Aaron: Yeah. Nice wife.

38:39

Aaron: Yeah.

38:41

Adam K: Uh, they have very wide back seats.

38:44

Adam K: It, um, it's this new AI model

38:48

Adam K: thing everyone's talking about

38:49

Adam K: where it.

38:50

Adam K: It's very optimized and it doesn't work like a typical LM.

38:55

Adam K: Um, but it's like a learning model where you can like teach

38:58

Adam K: it to play pong or snake or do like redundant tasks where

39:03

Adam K: people are like having it go out there and find like the best

39:06

Adam K: Google flight deal.

39:08

Adam K: And it,

39:08

Aaron: Uh. Huh.

39:08

Adam K: it's just like super efficient.

39:10

Adam K: So, um, that's the like the high

39:13

Adam K: brow marketing one that they

39:15

Adam K: like put out, but apparently

39:16

Adam K: it's built on this other thing,

39:18

Adam K: which I think is the name of the

39:19

Adam K: startup.

39:21

Adam K: Uh, you were trying to do.

39:23

Adam K: Um, yeah.

39:25

Adam K: Leah.

39:27

Adam K: Uh, yeah.

39:27

Adam K: It's literally called Leah ultra fast.

39:29

Adam K: Uh, so it's built on that.

39:30

Adam K: That's like the free one that you can run locally.

39:32

Adam K: But, um, yeah, I wanted to mess with that.

39:35

Adam K: And then, uh, I don't know if you've seen the, uh, I guess

39:39

Adam K: Hermes is the, the successor to open claw or claw bot or

39:44

Adam K: whatever we're calling it.

39:45

Aaron: I have heard that, yeah.

39:46

Adam K: Yeah. So have you been using it?

39:49

Aaron: No.

39:49

Adam K: Yeah. So I'm trying to think of something I can do.

39:53

Adam K: I'm, I'm trying to come up with a creative project to do with

39:56

Adam K: Hermes and, uh, dev slash Leah.

40:01

Adam K: And, um, one of the things I was

40:03

Adam K: trying to get it to do was play

40:04

Adam K: Marvel puzzle quest from, I

40:05

Adam K: think I've talked about doing

40:06

Adam K: this before.

40:07

Adam K: Um, and it didn't quite do it and it got stuck.

40:11

Adam K: And I, because I think Claude was just building an automated

40:14

Adam K: Java or a Python script, so it wasn't quite doing what I wanted

40:18

Adam K: it to do.

40:19

Adam K: But I'm trying to like, think of

40:21

Adam K: like, okay, how can we do low

40:23

Adam K: cost, automated tasks that do

40:25

Adam K: not, should not require an AI

40:27

Adam K: like.

40:29

Aaron: For. For what?

40:30

Adam K: Probably

40:30

Aaron: Like

40:30

Adam K: for the site, uh,

40:31

Aaron: oh.

40:32

Adam K: doing

40:32

Aaron: Oh,

40:32

Adam K: something.

40:32

Aaron: okay.

40:33

Adam K: Um, but then sharing that with you and then trying to, you

40:35

Adam K: know, again, I'm just in the early stages of spitballing.

40:41

Adam K: I was just looking up Jeb stuff like the other day.

40:44

Adam K: I'm still trying to wrap my head around what the hell it is

40:46

Adam K: because it's unclear and people just keep posting stuff of it,

40:50

Adam K: like playing Mario.

40:51

Adam K: And I'm like, but how do I make it play Mario?

40:55

Adam K: And

40:55

Aaron: J.

40:56

Adam K: yeah, yeah,

40:59

Aaron: Okay.

40:59

Adam K: yeah.

41:01

Aaron: Well, I'll look into it.

41:03

Aaron: Um, I still haven't, I still haven't had a Because of other

41:07

Aaron: things I've been working on, I still haven't even used a claw

41:10

Aaron: bot at all.

41:12

Aaron: So.

41:12

Adam K: It's been a while since I've felt the need to.

41:16

Aaron: Mostly because I've been seeing all these horror stories of it

41:19

Aaron: going off and being like, yeah, I don't feel like you were being

41:23

Aaron: as honest as you could have.

41:25

Aaron: So I emailed the FBI.

41:26

Aaron: Like what?

41:31

Adam K: Uh.

41:33

Aaron: That's what happens when you train an entire like l m world

41:39

Aaron: on Reddit posts.

41:41

Adam K: Mhm.

41:42

Aaron: You get SJW that think because

41:46

Aaron: you're lying about your vacation

41:48

Aaron: time that it should be sent to

41:49

Aaron: the FBI.

41:50

Adam K: Yeah. Did you see my my post about the, uh, the Linux thing?

41:57

Aaron: Oh, that just went out.

41:58

Adam K: Yeah, I,

42:00

Aaron: I saw.

42:00

Adam K: I meant to.

42:01

Adam K: Did you read the ending part?

42:03

Aaron: No.

42:03

Adam K: Okay. Well, I was talking about how in the Linux community, they

42:07

Adam K: call it Ricing.

42:10

Aaron: Yeah.

42:10

Adam K: So like, you laugh because you

42:13

Adam K: know, its origins and like, I

42:16

Adam K: assume because, I mean, I, I

42:18

Adam K: grew up in a very, you know,

42:19

Adam K: suburban, mostly white

42:21

Adam K: neighborhood.

42:22

Adam K: And I had a ninety three civic

42:25

Adam K: and all my, you know, fast and

42:27

Adam K: the furious had come out and

42:28

Adam K: everyone was talking about, you

42:29

Adam K: know, I had it was like the one

42:31

Adam K: guys like older brother who was

42:32

Adam K: like, we're going to rice out

42:33

Adam K: our cars.

42:34

Adam K: And when you're that young, you don't think anything about it.

42:36

Adam K: You're like, okay, cool.

42:37

Adam K: And then you think about it.

42:38

Adam K: You're like, oh, that's racist.

42:40

Adam K: That's very racist.

42:42

Adam K: Um, and then the last time I said that I was probably

42:46

Adam K: nineteen, our, you know, maybe closer to seventeen, uh, got

42:51

Adam K: over that pretty quick.

42:52

Adam K: But I was just surprised that

42:54

Adam K: when I did like just a little

42:55

Adam K: bit of research on like theming,

42:57

Adam K: you know, computers today,

42:59

Adam K: they're calling it like their

43:00

Adam K: rice.

43:02

Adam K: I was like, huh, that was not

43:04

Adam K: the term I would expect to come

43:06

Adam K: back around.

43:07

Aaron: So, but are they modifying computers and.

43:11

Aaron: Or are their

43:12

Adam K: Just

43:12

Aaron: operating

43:13

Adam K: just

43:13

Aaron: systems.

43:13

Adam K: the operating, just like the shell, the overlay, the theme,

43:16

Adam K: like not even like, you know, the no no internals.

43:19

Adam K: It's that's what I mean.

43:20

Adam K: Like it came from the tuning culture and the idea of that.

43:24

Adam K: Like,

43:24

Aaron: Except they made it

43:26

Adam K: I know,

43:26

Aaron: in my day,

43:28

Adam K: yeah, come

43:29

Aaron: my

43:29

Adam K: on, old man.

43:29

Aaron: Toyota Supra,

43:31

Adam K: Yeah.

43:31

Aaron: when I didn't even have to rice because it was it was, you know,

43:35

Aaron: fully riced already because

43:37

Adam K: Yeah.

43:37

Aaron: it was it was the the genesis

43:40

Adam K: Mhm.

43:40

Aaron: and all you little assholes in

43:42

Aaron: your Honda Civics and your

43:45

Aaron: Volkswagen Jettas and whatever

43:46

Aaron: else.

43:47

Adam K: Mine was a red ninety three civic.

43:51

Adam K: That was a salvage title that I

43:55

Adam K: got from like a police auction

43:56

Adam K: or something.

43:57

Aaron: Yeah.

43:57

Adam K: Um.

43:57

Aaron: Didn't your mom kill a guy like

43:59

Aaron: a drug dealer to get it or

44:00

Aaron: something?

44:01

Adam K: He fell out of a window And

44:02

Aaron: Uh.

44:04

Adam K: I got it.

44:04

Adam K: I think I got it for like, man, thinking back now, I think it

44:08

Adam K: was five grand.

44:09

Aaron: She's like, God, my son needs a car.

44:12

Aaron: Uh!

44:12

Aaron: Stop resisting.

44:13

Aaron: Bam bam bam bam.

44:15

Adam K: No, it was just, uh, she knew a guy who would do, uh, he would

44:22

Adam K: he, like, he would auction cars and he would like specifically

44:24

Adam K: sell to police officers.

44:25

Adam K: I think that was it.

44:27

Adam K: But it had super low miles.

44:28

Adam K: It was like, I forget what it was.

44:30

Adam K: It was like five thousand miles or something.

44:34

Adam K: It was stupid low five grand for five thousand miles.

44:37

Adam K: Um, and then eventually when I

44:42

Adam K: moved out to Culver City, I was

44:44

Adam K: going to the Apple Store because

44:45

Adam K: my Mac overheated doing work for

44:47

Adam K: machinima.

44:48

Adam K: And, uh, an old man with no car insurance hit me and

44:54

Aaron: Uh!

44:54

Adam K: like, just, just totaled the thing.

44:56

Adam K: So they, uh, yeah, they just, They.

45:02

Adam K: They totaled it and just wrote

45:03

Adam K: me a check and said, this car is

45:04

Adam K: done.

45:06

Adam K: That was sad.

45:07

Aaron: Well good story.

45:08

Aaron: Um, the Linux thing.

45:10

Aaron: That's so, that's so lame that that's what they're called.

45:14

Aaron: I mean, it's not even the, the racist thing that that sucks

45:17

Aaron: about it because, you know, uh.

45:20

Adam K: I'm of two minds because yeah,

45:22

Adam K: part of me is like, well, that

45:23

Adam K: sucks.

45:24

Adam K: That's wrong.

45:26

Adam K: But then also I'm like, well, it, it does come from like kind

45:31

Adam K: of a hateful place.

45:33

Adam K: Not, not, you know, obviously

45:36

Adam K: it's just that, that, uh, that

45:38

Adam K: casual racism that finds its way

45:40

Adam K: into culture.

45:42

Adam K: Um, so

45:43

Aaron: I

45:43

Adam K: part

45:43

Aaron: like that.

45:43

Adam K: of me, part

45:43

Aaron: Yeah.

45:44

Adam K: of me is like, yeah, take the power away.

45:46

Adam K: Like sure, run, run it, run it.

45:48

Adam K: So make, make it lose all meaning whatsoever.

45:51

Adam K: That's probably for the best.

45:52

Adam K: So I'm kind of for it, but I won't be using it.

45:56

Aaron: You know, I just, I realized my

45:58

Aaron: buddy Duff, I think that's what

46:00

Aaron: I think.

46:01

Aaron: He's rising his computer.

46:03

Aaron: He's trying to because he was

46:05

Aaron: talking about he's like, I'm

46:07

Aaron: making an operating system, so I

46:08

Aaron: don't need an operating system

46:09

Aaron: anymore.

46:10

Aaron: I'm like, what the fuck are you talking about?

46:12

Aaron: And I think he's fast and the furious thing, his his computer.

46:17

Aaron: I mean, he'll probably break it, but that's.

46:19

Adam K: We call that going?

46:21

Adam K: That's the full walker.

46:23

Aaron: Yeah. He's gonna throw his

46:26

Aaron: computer right into a tree,

46:27

Aaron: essentially.

46:28

Aaron: But.

46:28

Adam K: Mhm. He'll be in the passenger seat.

46:30

Adam K: So he's he's trying to code an operating system.

46:34

Aaron: I don't know, he just.

46:36

Aaron: So

46:36

Adam K: Get him.

46:36

Adam K: Get him on here next week so we can talk

46:38

Aaron: I've

46:38

Adam K: to him.

46:38

Aaron: thought about that.

46:40

Aaron: Uh,

46:41

Adam K: He could be our third.

46:42

Aaron: and he's got a face for radio, so that's good.

46:44

Aaron: Um.

46:45

Adam K: Except he was the only real person we put in our video.

46:49

Aaron: I don't know.

46:50

Aaron: Uh, no, he has this.

46:51

Aaron: So in his living room, he has an eighty four inch screen TV that

46:55

Aaron: just seems to be for.

46:57

Aaron: He has, uh, he has grock doing the coding, actually, and he

47:01

Aaron: has, uh, some sort of bot that he's made like a claw bot type

47:06

Aaron: thing on his desktop.

47:08

Aaron: And he basically said every day

47:11

Aaron: he's optimizing and I'm like,

47:13

Aaron: what?

47:14

Aaron: Optimizing what he's like

47:15

Aaron: processes, just making the

47:17

Aaron: processes optimized.

47:19

Aaron: Like what do you what?

47:21

47:23

Aaron: he's like, I have Grock create a report every day of ten things

47:28

Aaron: that it thinks I need to improve and to give me the top three.

47:31

Aaron: And in my mind was like, why

47:32

Aaron: don't you just have it do the

47:33

Aaron: three?

47:34

Aaron: But, uh, and then from those

47:36

Aaron: three, he makes these

47:38

Aaron: optimizations.

47:39

Aaron: And I was like, what is this all leading to?

47:40

Aaron: He said, I'm making my own

47:42

Aaron: operating system so I don't need

47:44

Aaron: one anymore.

48:03

Aaron: That'll that'll

48:04

Adam K: yeah,

48:04

Aaron: be useful.

48:04

Adam K: I think that the ChatGPT conversational thing has gotten

48:10

Adam K: a lot better.

48:11

Adam K: I might actually give that a try

48:13

Adam K: and then just do eleven labs

48:15

Adam K: because

48:15

Aaron: Yeah.

48:15

Adam K: have you seen it does the thing now where like you talk to it

48:18

Adam K: and it's like, aha.

48:19

Adam K: Mhm.

48:19

Adam K: Oh, yeah.

48:20

Adam K: Mhm.

48:20

Adam K: And I'm like, shut the fuck up.

48:22

Aaron: Does it really?

48:23

Adam K: Yeah.

48:23

Aaron: I haven't used ChatGPT in a while so I don't know.

48:26

Adam K: I

48:26

Aaron: But.

48:26

Adam K: was trying out, uh, trying to

48:29

Adam K: get something to work with

48:29

Adam K: CarPlay.

48:30

Adam K: I installed that new stereo and, um, apparently you're like, I

48:35

Adam K: mean, you're an Android guy.

48:37

Adam K: It's an Android head unit.

48:38

Adam K: So it, uh, it, you can install any APK, which is great, but for

48:43

Adam K: the most part use CarPlay and the new Apple update.

48:46

Adam K: You were supposed to be able to play videos while you're parked.

48:49

Adam K: I was like, oh, that's kind of cool.

48:50

Adam K: And I'm trying to get it to work.

48:51

Adam K: And I was like, well, none of the apps work.

48:53

Adam K: And I was like, oh, weird.

48:53

Adam K: You can use cloud from here, but it doesn't do anything really.

48:57

Adam K: And I saw ChatGPT and I was like, I want to give this a try.

48:59

Adam K: And it was the voice guy and he's like, hey, how's it going?

49:01

Adam K: Oh yeah, tell me what's going on.

49:02

Adam K: I was like, uh, I'm looking for a Indian.

49:04

Adam K: F t f t r. Oh yeah.

49:06

Adam K: Yeah.

49:06

Adam K: Cool bike.

49:09

Adam K: This is weird.

49:10

Adam K: This is weird that it's talking to me.

49:12

Adam K: Uh, so

49:13

Aaron: Yeah,

49:13

Adam K: I

49:14

Aaron: you could

49:14

Adam K: could,

49:14

Aaron: change it to my voice.

49:15

Aaron: Yeah.

49:15

Adam K: well, I'm thinking we just, we we have ChatGPT on the call.

49:20

Adam K: Duff and I, and we just never acknowledge it.

49:23

Adam K: So it's.

49:24

Aaron: It's just not able to participate or it's looking for.

49:27

Aaron: It's in the entire time.

49:30

Adam K: Quiet. Hold on.

49:31

Adam K: We're talking about this.

49:31

Adam K: And then at the very end, we go, okay, your thoughts.

49:35

Adam K: And then it just explodes.

49:38

Aaron: And that's all the time we have.

49:39

Aaron: Uh.

49:41

Adam K: How much compute did I burn doing that?

49:45

Adam K: How many lakes did I just drain

49:48

Aaron: Mhm.

49:48

Adam K: for this dumb, stupid joke?

49:52

Adam K: Come in.

49:54

Aaron: No, this is, uh, I was hammering something into shape.

49:57

Aaron: Man, I'm going to send you a

49:58

Aaron: picture of something, and it

49:59

Aaron: looks like this looks like arts

50:01

Aaron: and crafts at the community

50:03

Aaron: college.

50:05

Adam K: That's what your grandpa would have said if he had a phone.

50:07

Aaron: Yeah, well, they wish grandpa, my grandpa

50:12

Adam K: Cruising

50:12

Aaron: or my.

50:13

Adam K: trick or trickery?

50:14

Adam K: Uh. Shriner hat.

50:15

Aaron: Tricks?

50:16

Adam K: He would go to the parades on

50:18

Adam K: his bike for tricks and cruise

50:20

Adam K: around.

50:22

Aaron: Yeah, well, there's not much to do in Rising City, Nebraska.

50:25

Aaron: Besides cruise.

50:27

Aaron: The one gay guy that lives there with you.

50:33

Adam K: It was technically a parade, but it was just two guys.

50:37

Aaron: Two guys and people lined up throwing tomatoes at them.

50:41

Adam K: Well, well, one guy in one closet, hat guy.

50:44

Aaron: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

50:45

Adam K: And it wasn't really the street.

50:46

Adam K: It was more of a back alley behind a Chili's.

50:50

Aaron: I'd love to see a parade in Rising City.

50:54

Aaron: It's just it'd be probably the saddest thing.

50:56

Aaron: It'd be two cars, and they'd just make the parade fifty feet

51:00

Aaron: long, and they just turn around and keep going back and forth.

51:04

Aaron: It really would just be pacing

51:05

Aaron: back and forth, is what it would

51:06

Aaron: look like.

51:07

Aaron: But.

51:08

Adam K: Um, I think I'm going to buy, I think ten thirty a m uh, pitcher

51:15

Adam K: one zero one one seven two nine and, uh, frame this on my wall

51:21

Adam K: where an indifferent couple is just riding along on the road.

51:26

Aaron: These pictures aren't even that good.

51:28

Adam K: They're

51:28

Aaron: It's

51:28

Adam K: terrible.

51:29

Aaron: it's almost like, um, one of those trap cameras they set up

51:33

Adam K: It

51:33

Aaron: to.

51:34

Adam K: looks like it's a flock camera.

51:35

Adam K: Like a traffic light.

51:36

Adam K: Yeah,

51:37

Aaron: Yeah.

51:37

Adam K: I think

51:38

Aaron: It's

51:38

Adam K: it

51:38

Aaron: like

51:38

Adam K: might be.

51:39

Aaron: they're trying to see honey

51:40

Aaron: badgers, but all these asshole

51:43

Aaron: motorcyclists keep getting in

51:45

Aaron: the shot.

51:45

Adam K: Well, I, I see a couple guys like on adventure bikes.

51:50

Adam K: They were probably just passing through

51:52

Aaron: Yeah.

51:53

Adam K: And they were like, what the fuck is this?

51:54

Adam K: Like, I didn't consent to this.

51:56

Adam K: Like, you want to pay for it?

51:58

Adam K: Sammy Hagar might sign it.

52:01

Aaron: What's great is being a Sammy Hagar historian.

52:06

Aaron: I know that he doesn't give a

52:08

Aaron: shit about any of these people

52:10

Aaron: like Sammy Hagar Rich, and he

52:12

Aaron: grew up in the Bay area, and he

52:15

Aaron: has Ferraris and all this stuff,

52:18

Aaron: and he knows he has a unique

52:21

Aaron: ability to turn off that part of

52:24

Aaron: him and just go to Sturgis and

52:26

Aaron: be like, what's up, you loud

52:28

Aaron: motherfuckers?

52:29

Aaron: And everyone's like, yeah, you

52:31

Aaron: know, and and then he collects

52:33

Aaron: his sack of cash and then

52:35

Aaron: leaves.

52:36

Aaron: I look at someone on a trike.

52:38

Aaron: Oh, look at that happy couple.
