I ate that thing. | ||
Put it on the wall. | ||
This episode of the Joe Rogan Experience Podcast just started now. | ||
Hey, fuckers. | ||
What are we brought to you by today? | ||
Today we're brought to you by Stamps.com. | ||
Stamp.com is a great resource, a great service, if you run your own business. | ||
If you run your own business, you know what a pain in the ass it is to go to the fucking post office with a box of shit and have someone who doesn't really want to be there weigh it all out for you. | ||
It takes a long time to wait in line. | ||
It's a pain in the ass. | ||
The beautiful thing about stamps.com is that you can do it all directly from your own house. | ||
You weigh your shit. | ||
They give you a free digital scale. | ||
You weigh it. | ||
You print up the stickers for the postage right on your home computer. | ||
You leave them out for the postman and you're done. | ||
It's beautiful. | ||
If you buy any of Brian's kitty cat t-shirts from deskquad.tv, that's how Brian sends them. | ||
He sends them all from stamps.com. | ||
And for him, it's like the difference between it being really easy to do and a huge fucking pain in the ass. | ||
Hours, hours difference. | ||
Like you just print out the whole thing at once. | ||
Because essentially with the Desk Squad artwork and all that stuff, you've started your own business, you know, and you really don't have any employees. | ||
So it's like to like, yeah, it's a lot of work. | ||
Every time we go to these shows, I see these fucking t-shirts everywhere. | ||
So it makes it way easier for Brian. | ||
And if you go to stamps.com and click on the microphone in the upper right-hand corner, you enter in the code word J-R-E, and you get this $110 value where you get $55 and postage coupons, a free digital scale, $5 supply kit, and a four-week trial. | ||
It's a really cool service. | ||
And like I said, if you have your own small business, it's awesome. | ||
And if you don't have your own small business and you work for somebody, really fucking figure it out. | ||
Create something. | ||
I bet you want to. | ||
If you do, you should do it. | ||
And if you do it, use stamps.com, use the code word J-R-E, and save yourself some cash. | ||
Do you ever check the mail anymore? | ||
What's your frequency for checking the mail? | ||
Yeah, if I get something delivered. | ||
But that's it, right? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I mean, like, letters and shit. | ||
Like, what are you doing? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Send me an email, stupid. | ||
It's getting really bad, though, where I'm seriously just ignoring my mailboxes. | ||
You shouldn't do that because what if there's like some legal shit in there? | ||
Especially you, you scandalous son of a bitch. | ||
I know. | ||
Who knows what kind of nonsense you've gotten yourself into? | ||
Tell the truth, son. | ||
I know. | ||
Tell the truth, son. | ||
We're also brought to you by Ting. | ||
Ting is a cell phone company. | ||
And what is it, Rogan.ting.com? | ||
They use this sprint. | ||
If you heard this before, tough shit. | ||
All right? | ||
I'm going to say it again. | ||
I don't want to. | ||
You think I want to? | ||
I'm telling you fucking saying the same commercials. | ||
I'm tired of saying them, bitch. | ||
Okay? | ||
We're both tired of this. | ||
However, I got to get through them, and I'm not sure there's another way to do it. | ||
And if you're tired of hearing me talk, period. | ||
I fucking understand it. | ||
I'm not exactly thrilled with hearing myself either after all these fucking hours. | ||
All right? | ||
If you're getting annoyed at me, it's totally understandable. | ||
I would get annoyed at me, too. | ||
Take a break, man. | ||
Take a couple weeks off the show. | ||
Go do something else, man. | ||
No podcast for a month for you. | ||
about that. | ||
If you're into a new cell phone, if you go to ting.com forward slash Rogan, that's the... | ||
They have the HTC One also, which is the It has speakers in the front of it, which, you know, like most phones have them underneath and stuff. | ||
So it makes sense. | ||
And it actually has like a, it looks like an old MacBook, you know, the design of it. | ||
It has a very, very good sound, supposedly. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But who the fuck plays speaker phones? | ||
You know, like, unless you're showing someone a video, which I guess is possible. | ||
It happens like once a week. | ||
Right. | ||
It does look dope as fuck, though. | ||
I went to Galaxy S4. | ||
Yeah, well, the point about this website, we haven't really talked about it, is they're sort of a small company, but they use a Sprint backbone. | ||
It's not really that small anymore. | ||
But what I mean by small is it's not AT ⁇ T, it's not Verizon, it's not Sprint, it's not one of the big ones. | ||
But they use Sprint service, so you get the same service you would get if you were on Sprint, but you also have the advantage of not having any contracts. | ||
You also have the advantage of the way they have the pricing structure, it's really sweet. | ||
If you don't use as many minutes as you thought you would, they credit you on your next bill and drop you down to the next level. | ||
I mean, what fucking company does that? | ||
It's beautiful. | ||
No contracts, great phones, great service. | ||
Check them out. | ||
And if you go to Rogan. | ||
No, Ting.com forward slash Rogan. | ||
Is that what it is? | ||
God damn it. | ||
I should know that. | ||
I think it's Ford slash Rogan. | ||
Yeah, Ting.com Ford slash Rogan. | ||
If you go there, hmm. | ||
Check out. | ||
Ting has all sorts of great URLs. | ||
This isn't one of them. | ||
Rogan.ting.com. | ||
Yeah, I think that might be it, actually. | ||
Sounds right. | ||
You would think we do this every week. | ||
We should know. | ||
We're going to get it right, Fox. | ||
Yeah, it's Rogan.ting.com. | ||
Sorry. | ||
I didn't want to be so pretentious as to put my own name in front of the company. | ||
I refuse to believe that it was structured. | ||
Anyway, go to rogand.ting.com, save yourself $25. | ||
That's rogan.ting.com. | ||
And you get a $25 credit either on a new device or on their service, which is excellent. | ||
It's great. | ||
Cool phones, cool company. | ||
And that's it. | ||
And great for international if you travel to different countries, I found. | ||
Yeah, Brian had a party in Canada. | ||
Cost him $5 on his phone. | ||
He was on Sex Lines all night. | ||
I can't believe there's still Sex Lines, man. | ||
That's one of the weirdest things about going on the road is you get local television commercials. | ||
And every now and then, like a Sex Line thing will come up. | ||
I'm like, come on, man. | ||
unidentified
|
Really? | |
2013, you're calling strangers and jacking off. | ||
That's so weird. | ||
That seems like, man, there can't be a lot of people. | ||
This is the fucking internet. | ||
Why were you paying someone to talk to you? | ||
What demographic is dialing those? | ||
RubMaps is so much cheaper than that. | ||
Rub maps? | ||
Yeah, that's Brian's site. | ||
You go to Jerkoff Powers. | ||
You come to where Brian, the best spots are. | ||
It's all Brian posting with 30 different screen names. | ||
Hi guys. | ||
It's Brian posting as a bunch of people arguing with each other all about who gives the best hand drop. | ||
And then it'll create a website for it. | ||
Brian did a website. | ||
It's one of my favorite pranks of all time. | ||
And it was called Pepsi Spice. | ||
We've talked about it before. | ||
It was literally one of my favorite pranks of all time. | ||
When Pepsi was dumb enough to buy Pepsi Spice and start making that stuff, but not smart enough as well to get the URL Pepsi Spice. | ||
Oh my God. | ||
So Psycho over here gets PepsiSpice.com and starts printing this fucking blog about how he's been drinking Pepsi Spice and his health is eroding rapidly and he's only drinking Pepsi Spice. | ||
Yeah, he's like dying. | ||
It was really funny, man. | ||
It was really funny. | ||
This was before you even worked. | ||
No, you started. | ||
No, you'd already worked for me. | ||
And this is where I brought up that. | ||
I was hanging out with Lindsay Lohan at one point and we were chopping up mushrooms and snorting it and she called it mocaine. | ||
And then Doug Stanhope actually tried it doing that a couple months later. | ||
unidentified
|
That's a terrible idea. | |
Of course. | ||
That's a terrible idea. | ||
Yeah, this is actually just only half of it. | ||
The other half got deleted, but I might have it somewhere. | ||
Mushrooms and coke together sounds like a fucking mistake. | ||
Yeah. | ||
A lot of people do that shit. | ||
Candy flipping with it. | ||
It's funny that he would do it, though, like with other drugs available. | ||
It's normally when you're a little kid and you're like, let's smoke banana peels or something. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
Like, what are you doing, Doug? | ||
Well, I think it's probably a proven thing, though. | ||
It's probably got a very specific effect. | ||
I mean, I don't know what it is, but I bet the Mushroom and Coke Club, like the people that are really down with that shit, they'll probably tell you you're out of your mind. | ||
That's the way to go. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
There's not really many pro-Coke advocates, though. | ||
Is it still up there? | ||
Everything's up on PepsiSpice.com? | ||
No, it got deleted, but there's a lot of websites talking about like the museumofhoaxes.com. | ||
unidentified
|
Nice. | |
Dude, I've got to fucking give you headband for that one. | ||
Yeah. | ||
It was outstanding. | ||
It's one of my favorite things you've ever done. | ||
I was hoping the story would have ended in, and then Pepsi bought it from Brian for a million dollars. | ||
They only did it for one year. | ||
I actually kept it, and I was planning it for the holiday season the following year. | ||
I was going to have a different version of it, and they didn't bring it back, though. | ||
It was disgusting. | ||
It was one of the most grossest drinks I've ever heard. | ||
It's a fucking brilliant idea. | ||
You know what, Brian? | ||
You really should be talking about this on stage. | ||
That would be a really funny bit. | ||
Really? | ||
Yes, relaying the whole Pepsi Spice story and then breaking down all the different shit that you said it was going to do to you. | ||
Dude, that was really funny stuff. | ||
That's like perfect type of material for stand-up. | ||
Yeah. | ||
That you've always been into doing pranks and then just go into it. | ||
It's a really funny story. | ||
unidentified
|
For your new queen show. | |
And it really does taste like dog shit. | ||
Like utter, complete, total dog shit. | ||
Yeah. | ||
This was the commercial for the Pepsi Spice Crunch. | ||
I'm giving myself blowjobs and stuff. | ||
That's a great name. | ||
unidentified
|
This is so confusing. | |
The next morning. | ||
You put so much effort into this. | ||
It's so crazy. | ||
Yeah. | ||
You're out of your mind, man. | ||
unidentified
|
I was really fucking flag. | |
It's kind of amazing they didn't sue you. | ||
Oh, I know. | ||
You know, somebody actually fucked himself. | ||
Mandert actually sent me a cease and desist letter that looked like it came from Pepsi and stuff like that. | ||
That's hilarious. | ||
Did you listen to it? | ||
I don't remember. | ||
I think I did for like a day, but then I figured it out or something. | ||
Oh, that's funny. | ||
That's fucking hilarious. | ||

|
The Joe Rogan experience. | |
Train by day. | ||
Joe Rogan podcast by night. | ||
All good. | ||
Powerful Tate Fletcher OG Desk Squad is in the house, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
OG. | ||
And of course, Mr. Dave Asprey as well. | ||
Tate Fletcher is probably your biggest fan, dude. | ||
This guy, he touts your virtues. | ||
And he was the one who came into the ice house when he did the podcast last. | ||
He had this fucking gigantic beer keg-sized coffee. | ||
Coffee mug that's my size because I figured you guys would have your setup, which I trust that you did. | ||
Yeah, these two fully lit, he's got two canteens of it with him. | ||
unidentified
|
Huge. | |
I love you, Tate, man. | ||
You're so fun. | ||
Don't call me insane. | ||
You're always so fucking enthusiastic about shit. | ||
You will get, and you're so excessive, like to the brink. | ||
Yeah, you're like Costco buying coffee. | ||
He's an animal. | ||
Tate and I lived together for like four months. | ||
Yeah. | ||
That was fun. | ||
I hope you learned a lot during that time. | ||
I learned you lived like a bear. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Like a cave bear. | ||
He fucking just piles everything in his corner and you just go in there and hibernate. | ||
The best part was the tank to go down in that. | ||
And I never really appreciated every little scratch and cut that you get grappling. | ||
But you really do when you get in one of those tanks. | ||
Yeah, you got to learn how to deal with that stink, but it's only last for four or five minutes and then you're going somewhere else. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But man, it's one of those things where I really wish more people knew about it. | ||
I talk about it so much that people tell me to shut the fuck up. | ||
They're like, we stopped talking about the tank. | ||
It's like, if you just tried it, it's like it's safe. | ||
It's legal. | ||
There's no worries. | ||
It's good. | ||
It's a great source of magnesium. | ||
Just get it. | ||
I think, too, that when people talk about wanting to get the benefits of yoga and stuff like that, like you were the first one that I ever heard talk about like all those poses leading to a place of kind of like a supernatural experience with yourself and all that kind of thing, what yogis were originally trying to do. | ||
And that's a lot of discipline to do that, you know, but like to get in a and and like to have the benefits of like a massage, of real deep relaxation, of all that stuff come and just getting into a tank. | ||
Like, and that's that's there, you know, that's available. | ||
Yeah, you can have and you don't have to be good at anything, you can just lay there. | ||
That's the best part. | ||
Especially if you learn how to relax. | ||
That's the thing. | ||
Like, I've had people tell me, oh, when the tank didn't do nothing, I just laid there in the dark. | ||
Right. | ||
And I'm like, God damn, dude. | ||
Do you know how to use your brain at all? | ||
Like, how did you not, how did it, how did it do nothing for you? | ||
I feel like, too, if you're living in a way that you're, it just dawned on me the other day. | ||
I was like, you live kind of an aggressive life, Tate. | ||
Like, I'd never thought that before. | ||
It never dawned on me. | ||
But if you're really attacking life in a way, like, you're after stuff, you're using your intellect, you're using your artistic side, you're really going into things full-fledged, and you need a relaxation. | ||
You need that unwind. | ||
If you're just kind of sedentary all the time and you get in a tank, maybe I can see that. | ||
But like, if you really need that release on the other side of things. | ||
Yeah, maybe. | ||
I just think it's a good time for self-reflection. | ||
And I think people don't get that enough. | ||
You don't get enough time where you can actually just sit and do nothing. | ||
We try to multitask, try to watch TV while we relax, while we look at our Twitter, while we talk to someone who's near us. | ||
And we think it's relaxing, but there's still a lot of shit going on. | ||
It's just a lower vibration. | ||
When you get in a tank, there's nothing going on, man. | ||
There's nothing. | ||
There's no life anymore. | ||
It's disconnect. | ||
If you can just ignore, just learn how to stay still, stop moving, ignore the fact that you're in the tank, accept the fact that you're in the tank, and just be. | ||
Just be and breathe in this state. | ||
Here's the thing. | ||
You guys are pretty into your bodies. | ||
You're aware of your body, right? | ||
Talk to me. | ||
So I know I'm not saying into each other's bodies. | ||
That's a different animal altogether. | ||
No, I'm saying talking about jerking off in front of a mirror. | ||
So if you're in there, though, and you get nothing from it, it's probably because your brain is mostly not connected into your body. | ||
So for us, it could be anxiety. | ||
It could be anxiety. | ||
People tweak about shit, and they can never get comfortable. | ||
It's hard to get comfortable. | ||
So you start thinking about a lot of stupid shit that's bugging you. | ||
It's distracting. | ||
Managing the mind. | ||
It's one of the most critical things that you need to learn in this life. | ||
Learn how to manage your shit. | ||
The first time in my life, I can remember when I realized that I didn't always have to get mad when something happened, that I could keep my shit together. | ||
It was a beautiful feeling. | ||
It's like, and to actually pull it off, to pull it off when someone's being incredibly cunty to you and you just never get upset. | ||
That's a beautiful feeling. | ||
I had the best one of those ever. | ||
I finished this shaman class, just, I don't know, three or four years ago. | ||
First of all, how dare you say I finished a shaman class with a straight look in your face? | ||
I spent a week learning about shaman stuff. | ||
But here's the thing. | ||
I was in this weird state. | ||
I got pulled over somewhere down by Joshua Tree by a cop, right? | ||
And I was like, I'm doing 70 and 65, like whatever. | ||
They just assume everybody out there is high on meth. | ||
Pretty much. | ||
He comes up with this guy. | ||
And I had this. | ||
We better check. | ||
I had this calmness about me. | ||
This guy, you know, normal attitude. | ||
And all of a sudden, he just does something and goes, oh. | ||
And he starts complimenting the car. | ||
And then when he's done, he writes me for like five over or whatever and says, you're a really nice man and shakes my hand. | ||
Wow. | ||
I've never had a cop. | ||
I mean, I've pulled over like, I don't know, 50 times. | ||
I tend to get tickets. | ||
But this guy, you can tell he didn't even know what to do with himself. | ||
And because that non-reaction thing you're talking about there, like I wasn't pissed off with the guy, man. | ||
He's just doing his job, whatever. | ||
But yeah, there's something that happens when you do that and they treat you different. | ||
Yeah, it's possible to turn a situation around with the right attitude. | ||
It's like there's a lot of people that we all know that always got into trouble and you always had to look back and go, could that motherfucker have avoided that trouble? | ||
Like did that shit really have to go down? | ||
And they're like, man, if you would have done the same thing, if you were in that situation. | ||
And then you go, I don't know if I would have. | ||
I don't know if I would have. | ||
I think maybe you caught us that. | ||
Maybe you caused that a little bit. | ||
Well, and it's like those kinds of reflections that you wouldn't be present to without that. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
Until you emptied out everything else and you're like, oh, this is another occurrence. | ||
What I think of it all the time is in myself, it's not just how I reflect to the world, but like, how do I feel about it? | ||
Like, if somebody, like somebody at my gym, they didn't show up for a class one morning and then there's no classes and people are there and it's like a freak out, you know? | ||
But like, and somebody's like, God, you reacted. | ||
You were just, you're like, okay, well, I know that it's got to be gutting for you. | ||
I'm sorry that happened. | ||
Let's look at how we can mitigate the response of everybody else here and go on with it. | ||
And they're like, what happened? | ||
There's nothing. | ||
You reacted in such a nice way. | ||
And I'm like, well, it doesn't change anything for me to get all hemmed up about it. | ||
And so why do I want to feel ugly inside? | ||
Why do I want to have that kind of, because that's a damper on your whole soul, man. | ||
And I'm like, I can be happy or I can be shitty. | ||
I'm going to choose to be happy about it. | ||
The only time it becomes a problem is when you actually have to deal with someone. | ||
Like when someone's being a cunt, like it's like they're being aggressively cunty. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I got a great story with Tate. | ||
Tell the hallway story. | ||
Oh, yeah, yeah. | ||
We were in, this is a perfect example. | ||
Tate's. | ||
But that's a good thing. | ||
Listen, man. | ||
I'm going to prove anything wrong. | ||
This is a perfect example of, it's like jiu-jitsu. | ||
I feel like jiu-jitsu is like, I'm going to dig you some holes and I'm going to offer you a bunch of bad choices and you're going to have to go in one of my holes. | ||
And so the same thing, as long as everybody's clear about this is an eventuality that will happen if you choose door A. Right. | ||
So that's all I'm going to say. | ||
I let people make their own choices. | ||
I'm here for whatever kind of party you want to throw. | ||
We were hanging out in Las Vegas. | ||
And I know that if you've ever been to Las Vegas, you know that there's some dudes that just don't know how to handle it. | ||
They can't do it. | ||
You give them too much freedom, too much booze. | ||
This kid was like six foot six. | ||
He was really big. | ||
He was a big fuck. | ||
And because of that, he was like super confident that he could just go around pushing people around. | ||
And even Tate, like Tate's a big motherfucker. | ||
I wouldn't push Tate around. | ||
This stupid dick, he was probably like four or five inches taller than you. | ||
Yeah, he's a big boy. | ||
He's a big fucker. | ||
He was big. | ||
His buddy was about my size. | ||
His buddy was, and that was like normal. | ||
And then there's this giant with him. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And we come out of the hotel, out of the elevator. | ||
We come out of the elevator and Tate's trying to put his card in the room and the kid's like, that's my room. | ||
And Tate's like, oh, no, I'm pretty sure it's mine. | ||
Look, yep, see, I got the key. | ||
Take it easy. | ||
Like, literally, we give the kid all the fucking room in the world. | ||
And I was in the room next to him, and all of a sudden, we hear banging, bang, bang, bang. | ||
So, after Tate went in his room, the dude decided that he was pissed off, and he knew Tate was in there. | ||
So, he's banging on the door to get Tate to come out. | ||
So, Tate opens the door, and I hear them talking. | ||
Eddie and I run out into the hallway. | ||
And so, this big fuck is standing in front of Tate, and there was a lot of talking, but nothing, it looked like nothing was going to happen. | ||
And the guy started to back away, and Eddie Bravo goes, well, you're the one just standing there talking shit. | ||
What did you say? | ||
And right before that, there's the guy, the guy's friend is more sober, cooler. | ||
And he's like, hey, dude, come on, let's just go, man. | ||
Let's just go. | ||
And he's trying to get him to the elevator. | ||
And our door is right where it tees off. | ||
And so I'm looking out the window. | ||
There's elevator, elevator. | ||
And then we're standing there. | ||
And Eddie's over here and Joe's over here kind of flanking me. | ||
And I was like, dude, just relax. | ||
It's my room, you know, and all that. | ||
And the guy's like, yeah, let's go. | ||
And he turns to his friend and he shoves him. | ||
His friend's back on his shoulders inside the elevator at that point. | ||
So at that point, those cameras caught that. | ||
And then the guy's going, you fucking bald-headed, tattooed, pussy, son of a bitch, all this kind of stuff. | ||
All right, dude, cool. | ||
I said, we're done. | ||
Are you going to go? | ||
And he's like, no, fuck you, bitch. | ||
And I'm like, I don't know. | ||
I just started hanging out with Joe, really. | ||
And I was like, you know, there's not a present danger. | ||
What can I really do here, you know? | ||
And Eddie was just like, Eddie just dropped the leash. | ||
And he was like, what, dude? | ||
You calling him a bitch. | ||
You're the one that keeps backing away, whatever. | ||
And I'm like, I guess it's on. | ||
All right. | ||
Fucking Eddie. | ||
And then the dude comes at me. | ||
I was like, yeah, come at me. | ||
See what happens. | ||
Yeah, you said, come swing on me. | ||
And then the dude stepped forward. | ||
Tate hit him with an inside leg kick and then pulled guard. | ||
He pulled guard and wrapped this dude up in an alma plata so quickly. | ||
That dude had no idea what the fuck was going on. | ||
He was drunk off his ass. | ||
He couldn't believe what was happening. | ||
He had this dude's feet in his face, okay? | ||
And then I don't know who said it or the security guard came here. | ||
Oh, that's right. | ||
The security guard came here while it was all going on. | ||
And I said, dude, relax. | ||
I said, don't worry about it. | ||
I go, he's going to be fine. | ||
He's not going to hurt him. | ||
He's just going to put him to sleep. | ||
And then take over. | ||
And then I hear, I guess I'm going to put him to sleep. | ||
I'm like, there's my boss. | ||
I got to put him to sleep now, so I got to transition. | ||
So Tate, while he still has the dude in a normal plata, sinks a rear naked on him and chokes him out. | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
It was ruthless. | ||
And then, so he gets away and didn't hurt him at all. | ||
The guy didn't get hit, nothing. | ||
You were so kind to him. | ||
And then he wakes up. | ||
His friends get him up and they pick him up. | ||
They push him into an elevator. | ||
He has no idea what happened. | ||
He's like, what happened? | ||
What happened? | ||
They go in the elevator. | ||
The elevator door shuts. | ||
He disappears from life. | ||
That's it. | ||
His friend thanks us. | ||
And all we could surmise is like, that dude is probably picks on his friend. | ||
He picks on everyone. | ||
He's probably like that all the time. | ||
He was so ruthlessly douchey and drunk. | ||
But he was a giant. | ||
A giant motherfucker. | ||
And I guess he just thought that he could just get away with doing that. | ||
But that's how the universe works. | ||
If you're a big giant, evil motherfucker, you run into a dude like Tate. | ||
There's bumps in the road, bitch. | ||
It's true. | ||
That happens with Road Rage a lot. | ||
Like, I've got this mini Cooper now. | ||
Before that, it was a Volvo. | ||
And dudes trip. | ||
And then I'll wait in the parking lot or whatever where I'm going to go into a store and they've pulled around. | ||
And then I pop out. | ||
I'm like, hey, how you doing? | ||
You having a good day? | ||
And they're like, all the wind is out of their shit. | ||
unidentified
|
And they get back in their car and down the road. | |
Big, giant, bald, tattooed dude with a fucking pirate beard. | ||
I always get a little mad though. | ||
I'm like, you were expecting my mom or a little kid or something to get over the son of a bitch. | ||
And then you're going to bully him. | ||
And now it's a gorilla, so what? | ||
You need to get it. | ||
People get real dick when they're driving. | ||
You know, it's because there's a disconnect that doesn't happen when it's just people to people. | ||
When it's people to people out there in the street, it's very rare you'll find a guy like that douchebag from that hotel. | ||
It's very rare when you think of all the interactions you have with people. | ||
But when you're in cars, man, so many fingers are flying. | ||
So many fuck you's. | ||
So many, I'm looking at someone mouthing fuck you to me, and I'm like, okay, great. | ||
Fuck you what? | ||
Because what is it? | ||
Because I didn't let you cut in front of me or because you're driving like a dickhead and I'm trying to avoid you? | ||
Which one is it? | ||
Scary ass. | ||
I love that whole idea of like, I used to get mad if I'm trying to hold my place and then I was like, what are you hanging on to? | ||
How about you can choose right now? | ||
Let them in, Tate, and then you're a hero. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
And then everybody, it's all good. | ||
And when it doesn't happen the other side, you're like, seriously? | ||
Like, you've got to block several feet. | ||
Yeah, sometimes it's just not safe. | ||
Like, someone's trying to bust a move and they're like trying to get you to move back. | ||
You're like, look, what are you fucking doing? | ||
You're driving like a dick, man. | ||
I'm not going to let you in if you're driving like a dick. | ||
Just calm the fuck down. | ||
All that stuff is like reptile, mammalian, survival, fight-or-flight stuff. | ||
Yeah, I just generally, like, when I'm involved with a situation like that, I usually just lay back. | ||
I just start going even like below the speed that I'm at. | ||
Like, just go on. | ||
Just get the fuck away from me. | ||
Go ahead. | ||
Go down your road. | ||
But I feel like every now and then there's a guy behind the wheel that's driving so fucking crazy. | ||
Some asshole the other day in the valley, like in Ceno, was driving a Mercedes. | ||
I've never seen anybody drive like this in like really crowded streets. | ||
I mean, he was just fucking nailing it and swerving in between cars, car to car to car to car. | ||
I mean, he ought to be going 100 miles an hour plus on a busy street. | ||
It was really crazy. | ||
You know, there's a lot of douchebags out there. | ||
So I decided, you know, I try to work on this calmness and all that. | ||
And for me, driving and road rage was the worst. | ||
They used to have the worst road rage ever. | ||
Really? | ||
Oh, dude. | ||
That was terrible, man. | ||
You would not. | ||
You seem so calm. | ||
You would not recognize me. | ||
I once got taken to the police station because someone accused me. | ||
This is a while back, but they accused me of exposing myself while driving. | ||
And the truth of the matter is that someone cut me off and I got pissed off and I said, you know, why don't you honk on Bobo here? | ||
unidentified
|
And honk on Bobo here? | |
You made a blow job sort of a thing. | ||
Yeah, exactly. | ||
In case you can't see, I'm like, yeah, here you go. | ||
That is a new hashtag. | ||
Exactly. | ||
unidentified
|
Honk on Bobo. | |
So that's what you said to people while they were driving? | ||
No, no, I made the graphical motion to have them blow you. | ||
Exactly. | ||
Yeah, like basically, you know, blow me, F you. | ||
unidentified
|
And one of the same. | |
Exactly. | ||
Anyway, I was kind of like, I forgot about it, and this police officer leaves her business card on my front porch. | ||
And apparently, whoever cut me off was just a complete idiot of a driver and like really, apparently thought I did this. | ||
So this little police officer woman is like, hey, I know you did. | ||
This is the beginning of a porno. | ||
No, I swear to God. | ||
We're like in the police station. | ||
She's like, I know you did it. | ||
And I started laughing. | ||
I looked for a camera because I thought it was a joke. | ||
Like, I thought some friends of mine had really seriously hooked me up on this because there's no way. | ||
It was so far from my reality. | ||
And she goes, no, I know you did. | ||
I have witnesses. | ||
And I'm like, you can't have witnesses because it didn't happen. | ||
Like, you're lying. | ||
And we went back and forth for two hours about this. | ||
This is how bad my road rage was. | ||
Two hours. | ||
She was full on. | ||
I'm going to go to the DA. | ||
I'm like, you can't go to the DA. | ||
There is no evidence. | ||
unidentified
|
And furthermore, anatomically, okay, this is my lap. | |
This is the side of the car. | ||
And this is where the steering wheel is. | ||
So unless I'm like hung like a horse, it is not possible to drive and expose yourself at the same time to someone in the car next to you. | ||
It's not. | ||
I'm like, you can't do that. | ||
So finally, I did this lie detector test, and I passed away. | ||
You got to do a lie detector test? | ||
I volunteered to. | ||
I'm like, there's nothing going on here. | ||
They went so hilarious. | ||
It was so Gestapo. | ||
I can't even tell you. | ||
But that's how bad my road rage was. | ||
Like, now? | ||
Wait, you had to go to the station to get it light? | ||
Or did they have a lie detector test in the car? | ||
James got one in. | ||
Oh, no. | ||
He's got one in his bag. | ||
This was a month after it happened. | ||
Oh, shit. | ||
It was scary, actually. | ||
I realized I was absolutely guilty. | ||
You guys want to hear the most frightening road rage story ever? | ||
Sure. | ||
All right. | ||
Terrifyingly horrible. | ||
New Mexico. | ||
A couple of busers at a really nice restaurant at Geronimo there. | ||
They're driving home and they live like 20 minutes out of town in a little town. | ||
And there's some road rage thing happening at midnight or 1 in the morning. | ||
It's terrible in New Mexico. | ||
The road rage is crazy. | ||
I grew up there. | ||
It's nuts. | ||
And so anyway, they get away from this car that is, and they're like stalking them. | ||
It's like you can't go slowly. | ||
They're going to slow down. | ||
You can't go too fast. | ||
All that shit. | ||
They pull off at their exit and they go home. | ||
And they're two brothers. | ||
And they're, I don't know, 22, 25 in there. | ||
And they go into their house. | ||
And then a car pulls up. | ||
Lights are on. | ||
Hey, motherfuckers, we know you're in there. | ||
Hey, we know you're in something like that. | ||
Right. | ||
And they say, hey, fuck you. | ||
We got a gun. | ||
They've got a shotgun in there. | ||
And don't, and get the fuck off our property, please. | ||
Next thing you know, ding, ding, ding. | ||
One of the brothers takes one in the head and drops. | ||
The other brother goes, holy fuck, and runs out the back door. | ||
It's two state cops that have opened fire. | ||
And then they're hunting him. | ||
He won't come out until he hears cops. | ||
Until he hears more cops come. | ||
And then he comes out and he goes to jail, sits for the weekend. | ||
He gets charged of resisting arrest, a few things on him or whatever. | ||
The state cops that killed his brother don't even get suspended, I don't think. | ||
They're the brothers of the girl that was road raging them. | ||
They call up the brother. | ||
They're on the job. | ||
And that's how New Mexico is, too. | ||
It's like fucking this serious, grotesque. | ||
The girl who's road raging. | ||
The girl's rotating me. | ||
She knows that her brother's. | ||
These fucking assholes fucking are road raging me. | ||
Come and arrest them or scare them. | ||
So the cop goes, oh, fuck, whatever. | ||
I'll go pull over. | ||
And it escalates to that. | ||
Whoa. | ||
No repercussions. | ||
The brothers traumatized forever. | ||
God bless them. | ||
I mean, the whole thing, I'm like, and that's what can happen. | ||
What do you think it is that causes people to do that in a way that they very, very rarely do in person? | ||
And the cop would probably never behave that way otherwise. | ||
And just all these series of events happened and kaboom. | ||
Do you think we're not designed to interact with people without being close to them? | ||
It's not that. | ||
The mammal brain that you've got is 10 times faster than you can think about stuff. | ||
So you know you should do something, but the reaction you get to someone cutting in front of you, it's the same thing like a labrador. | ||
You throw a piece of meat in front of it. | ||
It eats it before it really knows what's going on. | ||
So there's this whole set of things. | ||
Even though it could be poisonous or whatever. | ||
Exactly. | ||
So the reason we get in trouble, almost everything we do is what dogs do, right? | ||
Like, oh, there's a leg, I'll hump it. | ||
There's a stick, I'll chase it. | ||
This distractability, right? | ||
And then, oh, look, there's like cat poop and I'll eat it. | ||
Those are the three big behaviors that mess everyone up because all of them happen 10 times faster than you think about them. | ||
So for me, Road Rays was like one of the last things to go. | ||
Do you ever see people? | ||
If you're a dog, they think it's delicious. | ||
If you're a dog, I don't know if you've ever been around dogs much. | ||
Yeah, but each shit. | ||
It doesn't matter what it is. | ||
So basically. | ||
With litter. | ||
unidentified
|
It's just fucking out on me. | |
It's covered in litter and they're chewing up. | ||
I had a bulldog that would do that and I would pull it out of his jowls and I was like, I don't know what's more grotesque. | ||
You eating it or me pulling it out, buddy? | ||
unidentified
|
It's so disgusting. | |
But that's like the wiring in your brain that you share with all these other animals. | ||
Someone cuts in front of you, it triggers that. | ||
And you react. | ||
Why do you trigger it in that way in a car? | ||
Why is in a car? | ||
Why is it so intense? | ||
Is it the stress of driving and dealing with a bunch of people? | ||
I think we get self-absorbed. | ||
I think it's arrogance that I go, I'm going somewhere and you're in my path of getting there or something like that. | ||
And we don't get more open. | ||
When you drive that fast, you have to have that part of your brain turned on because its reaction time is 10 times faster than you can think about it. | ||
Imagine if every time you wanted to put the brake on, you had to go, I guess I'll think about whether I should put the brake on. | ||
I guess I'll think and maybe I'll do some math to figure out how much time I've got. | ||
So you're driving using your nervous system, not using your conscious brain. | ||
So you're reacting with your nervous system there. | ||
So I finally hooked up. | ||
That actually makes it. | ||
It's like putting in reps. | ||
It's like when I pulled guard on that dude, all we've been drilling was going into that alma plata. | ||
And it was automated. | ||
And I was like, I can't, if I drive him back, we go through the window. | ||
I can just do that. | ||
And I just went there. | ||
But it's like it's putting in the reps. | ||
The same thing with jiu-jitsu kickboxing. | ||
It's like, I need this to be second nature that I'm going to protect myself. | ||
And that's going on. | ||
Interesting. | ||
I hooked a sensor up to my ear when I was driving. | ||
I did this for about two weeks. | ||
And every time my fight or flight response gets kicked off, it turns red. | ||
So I put it there on the dashboard. | ||
And I'd drive there in Silicon Valley in bad traffic. | ||
Every time someone would cut me off, my nervous system would be like, kill him. | ||
Like you could see it turn red. | ||
So then I'd make it turn green. | ||
And after about a week, I learned I could just keep that thing green. | ||
It didn't matter what anyone did. | ||
But I had to train that part of myself just like you train a dog. | ||
I don't have any road rage now. | ||
I don't care what someone does on the road. | ||
I'm not going to get mad at them. | ||
I think that's the thing, though, is having a spiritual consciousness like that where I go, regardless of my external conditions, I'm going to be unchanged inside. | ||
Like that's the goal, but you have to get conscious to that. | ||
If you're not a thinking person, your default is rage, perhaps. | ||
But there's an iPhone app for that now. | ||
That's how insane this stuff is. | ||
That's why I love this stuff. | ||
Is there a phone app for road rage? | ||
It's an iPhone app for what I did there. | ||
That thing that I clipped on my ear, all you do is you breathe in and breathe out. | ||
It spaces your breathing and tells you when your heart rate changes, like an animal going into fight or flight. | ||
As soon as that change happens, it's a second-by-second change. | ||
You just, oh, look, it happened again. | ||
I guess I'll turn that off. | ||
And after a while, your nervous system gets tired of going into fight or flight and getting no satisfaction. | ||
So it just stops. | ||
So just in recognizing it, it allows you to control it to the point where you can stop it from happening? | ||
There's two steps. | ||
The first is there's a feeling when it happens that you don't know what that feeling is unless you're trained to sense it. | ||
So first you know the feeling and then you know how to turn it off. | ||
And they're like different skills. | ||
That's a beautiful thing because, I mean, like a heightened accountability because so often we go, oh, well, I'm powerless over what I eat or I feel like they're just my feelings. | ||
But to really get super accountable for like, this is my life. | ||
These are my emotional and I can change all that. | ||
unidentified
|
And knowing they happen, they happen before you can think about them. | |
And it doesn't matter what they are because they're not really you. | ||
They're just like an automated defense system. | ||
It completely makes sense about driving, putting you in that heightened state. | ||
Totally, completely makes sense. | ||
Because you're going fast and you have to think quickly. | ||
A friend of mine used to say, he says, you're not responsible for the first thought, but you're responsible for stroking it after that. | ||
It's like, shit's going to pop in your head. | ||
That's a good threat. | ||
Whatever you're going to do after that with it, you can either say, okay, I'm going to go with this thought and coax it up into a huge problem or whatever. | ||
Yeah, it's really important evaluation of your situation, especially thinking about it that way. | ||
Thinking about the fact that you're on a very sort of animalistic, high-rev state because you're driving a car. | ||
That actually really makes sense. | ||
My feeling was always that there was not enough connection between people that are in cars. | ||
Like you don't feel bad if you cut them off the way you would feel bad if you did something to someone in the grocery store. | ||
Plus human. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Like if you cut a guy off in the grocery store with your cart and you stuck right behind him in line, you would feel fucking terrible. | ||
But if you cut a guy off in a car, it's like this slow bitch. | ||
It's just in a way. | ||
It doesn't even bother you. | ||
I want the mode of my life forever. | ||
I just want to get past you, stupid. | ||
For whatever reason, especially for men, I think, it's just easy to be dicky. | ||
But I've seen a lot of women tweak in cars, too. | ||
Well, everybody, they shouldn't drive. | ||
I had an ex-girlfriend that was nuts in her fucking car. | ||
She would cut dudes off. | ||
They cut her off. | ||
And she would do it with you in the car. | ||
I mean, it was like a fucking competition with her. | ||
She likes to see guys fight. | ||
That's who that is. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
She was crazy. | ||
She was crazy. | ||
She was great, but she was crazy. | ||
But yeah, I had to tell her, stop. | ||
I'm going to get out of your car. | ||
I hate it when anybody is. | ||
I'm not going to die. | ||
I'm like, you're going to get shot. | ||
You don't know who you're dealing with. | ||
That's the thing about being a woman, too. | ||
You don't know who's going to follow you home. | ||
Give the wrong guy the finger and watch life get terrified. | ||
It's not just that, but when you're super aggressively douchey driving that way, like you could pick the wrong guy and you don't want that person in your life ever. | ||
And all of a sudden now they're in your life in a very intense way. | ||
And you've invited them in. | ||
That's a stupid idea. | ||
It's dumb. | ||
And that comes from, I think, a lot of women. | ||
It's very rare for them to experience first-hand violence. | ||
I mean, I think you got the possibility of sexual stuff and things along those lines, like from men. | ||
But I think men probably see a lot more physical violence, like young men. | ||
Not anymore. | ||
You don't think so? | ||
Do they have cops in schools now? | ||
When I was a kid, I got in like 75 fist fights. | ||
It's like all the time. | ||
unidentified
|
They get in fights, but they still dick each other. | |
It's important, though, too, I think. | ||
It's part of growing up. | ||
I remember the first time I got socked in the mouth, and I was like, oh, shit, that's very real. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
And I was like, and I needed that. | ||
I needed somebody to tap me in the face like that. | ||
And you can just see the dudes, too, that are in their 20s, and you're like, that guy never got punched in the face, I bet. | ||
And that's the problem he's having today, currently, right now in front of me. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
That's a lot of, well, a lot of guys, too. | ||
It's like your whole stupid body's designed for chaos, and the chaos never shows up. | ||
It's like you're just at work all day. | ||
Where's this chaos I'm designed for? | ||
What's this mad world that I like? | ||
If you're a fucking healthy male, life can be challenging. | ||
If you're a healthy testosterone-filmed male and you don't have a release, if you don't have something that lets you burn off energy, well, guess what? | ||
The world doesn't need you like that. | ||
You're stuck in a situation where you're bouncing around in a world that doesn't need cavemen anymore. | ||
What to do, what to do. | ||
There also used to be like a rite of passage, like ceremonies to tell you like you're an adult. | ||
You got to act like one. | ||
And now it's like, oh, you're 18. | ||
You can vote. | ||
You can't drink. | ||
Sorry. | ||
But there's nothing else. | ||
I think that's big. | ||
We've talked about that before. | ||
I think there needs to be a rite of passage for men. | ||
And it should be something that you, I mean, whether it's a physical accomplishment or a mental accomplishment, it's almost like graduating, like graduating from high school. | ||
If you graduated from high school, I know, well, at least the guy graduated from high school. | ||
Did you graduate from college? | ||
Like, wow, graduated from college. | ||
This should be, I graduated from man school. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I went to man school. | ||
There's a two-week course. | ||
Everybody's designed to take it. | ||
See, if you call that like Boy Scouts, but who goes to Boy Scouts anyway? | ||
I did like it. | ||
Yeah, yeah. | ||
I did the Boy Scouts. | ||
I was an Eagle Scout too. | ||
That's the most advanced one. | ||
I quit like the month after I became one officer. | ||
Is that the biggest one? | ||
That's the best patch? | ||
It's a big deal becoming an Eagle Scout. | ||
Yeah, yeah, I remember. | ||
I'd see guys that did it. | ||
Yeah, I did one year in the Boy Scouts. | ||
Yeah, I did two. | ||
I did the Boy Scouts in Jamaica Plain. | ||
It was a fucking sketchy area outside of Boston. | ||
And I went to the woods of New Hampshire with fucking criminals. | ||
That's what it was. | ||
It was me and a bunch of kids who were fucking criminals. | ||
And they were ganking kids in the middle of the night. | ||
They were tying them to their bed, covering them with toothpaste. | ||
It was some shit. | ||
Like, you had to be on point at any moment. | ||
You might have to scrap with some kids you don't even know who were from an even worse neighborhood than you. | ||
I barely remembered mine. | ||
Like, it was a church-based Boy Scouts, too, most of it. | ||
And so I don't know if I was just molested while being a Boy Scout, and that's why I don't remember, because I should remember more from being a Boy Scout. | ||
Could you imagine this last time? | ||
You were one day, you were like masturbating or something, and then you had this flash in front of your face of a priest Cock right before it went in your mouth. | ||
And you went, I knew it. | ||
I knew there was something I was missing. | ||
Yeah, or that's why I've never been to a football game or a baseball game with my uncle because maybe every time I see. | ||
Flashes of a whole locker room full of football players throwing a pound into you. | ||
unidentified
|
Some dark history. | |
Flashes. | ||
No, deny it. | ||
Flash, flash. | ||
I had a friend on ecstasy at 25 tripping right in the middle of like the first time I used E, it all came back to him. | ||
Absolutely remembered he'd been abused for like eight years. | ||
Oh my god. | ||
And he was blocked out. | ||
That shit happens. | ||
unidentified
|
It does. | |
It's real. | ||
Yeah, those repressed memories are scary stuff, man. | ||
So every time Brian takes E, it's just like therapy. | ||
He's just trying to get to the root of things. | ||
It just boils down to the same thing. | ||
Shitty humans create shitty humans. | ||
And so many shitty humans have created more shitty humans because of the shittiness. | ||
It's the thing, too, is like you got, like, when you're talking about there's no right of passage or there's no man school. | ||
It's like sometimes a little while ago, I did a self-defense thing down on the bluffs for people. | ||
And it always is shocking to me. | ||
Like, here's a bunch of grown people that don't know the first thing about how to take care of themselves in a physical. | ||
It should be a responsibility. | ||
It should be a responsibility to know. | ||
Like, that's why I'm so a fan of Dave's or Rob Wolfe or Marxisten or all those guys. | ||
It's like it's a responsibility to know how to take care of your body and to know how this thing operates and all that and what it's capable of. | ||
And also, I think as a man, it's your responsibility to take care of weaker people or women or whatever. | ||
You should know those things. | ||
You should know math. | ||
You should know how to read. | ||
You should know how to draw a picture. | ||
You should try all that shit. | ||
You should have a true liberal education. | ||
And there's not a setup to that. | ||
Yeah, maybe know how to. | ||
If you can't put a button on yourself, please stop embarrassing yourself. | ||
Get it together. | ||
There's a weird intellectual thing where people like to pretend they don't care about their body. | ||
So they're all about thinking. | ||
they're above it. | ||
unidentified
|
It's actually part of It's part of being manly. | |
Well, yeah, there's a manly thing about being a fat fuck. | ||
You don't give a shit. | ||
You just let your gut grow like a boss. | ||
That would be like a picture of you with your gut hanging over your belt like a boss. | ||
Like a boss. | ||
But the people who listen to your show, I don't get the impression there's a lot of that going on. | ||
There's some people that do, I'm sure. | ||
It takes all kinds of people in all kinds of different, you know, some people absorb some things and some people just parts about their life they just don't want to change or they haven't mustered up the urge to change it yet. | ||
You know, but there's also a lot of people that listen to this podcast where I've met and they're like, I lost 100 pounds. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
Listen to the podcast. | ||
I hear that stuff all the time. | ||
That's funny. | ||
I feel good. | ||
I love that. | ||
That's insane. | ||
Dude, it's crazy. | ||
I mean, you talk about bulletproof coffee, put that out there. | ||
I don't know if you ever have yet, but like to put out a thing about like, what are your results? | ||
The results are fucking astonishing. | ||
I've got like hundreds of them. | ||
The breadth of them is incredible. | ||
And those are just people that'll talk about it. | ||
Yeah, and a lot of it's like up here. | ||
unidentified
|
They're getting the mental focus and the energy and quality, natural speed. | |
Dude, it's too realistic here, people. | ||
You guys are talking about it like it's Soma. | ||
It's awesome speed. | ||
But people that get off of Paxil, Zolof, shit like that, that are like, I just feel more even all the time now that I eat a high level of fats all the time in my system or whatever. | ||
It's like, that's when people don't think that that's the heaviest drug that you're taking, most, I mean, a couple people here excluded perhaps, but like food is maybe the number one heaviest drug that anybody takes in the world. | ||
And we do it all the time without thinking about it. | ||
And I would just have you consider that if you think about it just a little bit, you can have a drastically different experience with life. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Yeah. | ||
There's so many people that have a nutrient-deficient life. | ||
And it's really terrible. | ||
Or sugar-dependent or whatever. | ||
Your moods are up and down. | ||
When I went to just all fats, basically, like, dude, I'm even. | ||
I'm like, wow, like all day long. | ||
I feel great, even, and I don't have these horrific mood swings, you know? | ||
And bagels lost their power, didn't they? | ||
Oh, God, there's none of that. | ||
Just look at that. | ||
You bitches are out of your fucking mind. | ||
I will never lose the love for bagels. | ||
Some locks and cream cheese. | ||
Talk to me, Brian. | ||
That's what I'm talking about. | ||
I did have some bagels. | ||
Bagels are fucking delicious. | ||
I need a goddamn cheat. | ||
I need a goddamn cheat day. | ||
No, croissants with chocolate will fuck a bagel. | ||
Dude, over on 3rd Street, there's a great spot. | ||
The real French folks. | ||
Not that they're useful for much else, but making croissants, they're good. | ||
Do you rock a cheat day? | ||
Do you eat healthy? | ||
unidentified
|
I did. | |
That was the first time that I had wheat in two years was I wanted to have those croissants. | ||
Wow. | ||
And yeah, I just don't fuck with it. | ||
If it's not going to make me feel better or perform better, I got zero use for it. | ||
Yeah, wheat's a funny one, man, because people think you're fucking crazy for saying that wheat's bad for you. | ||
Horrible. | ||
Especially when you start looking at the advent of gliadin or things like that that are in wheat now. | ||
Like it's fucking crazy bad. | ||
My chiropractor, a friend actually, who's a chiropractor, told me that one of the reasons why people get inflammation as far as like discs and things like that. | ||
She's like, we've been able to help people a lot just by cutting wheat out of their diet. | ||
Like that's insane. | ||
Why isn't this more known? | ||
Well, it kind of is. | ||
Because they trade it on the fucking stock exchange. | ||
Because there's big money in it. | ||
I mean, there's a reason why the FDA or whatever is like, I eat nine to 12 servings a day. | ||
It's also yummy. | ||
Okay. | ||
It's not just as big. | ||
That's yummy. | ||
I love spaghetti. | ||
You can go fuck yourself. | ||
I will love spaghetti. | ||
You know what? | ||
unidentified
|
I'll tell you what, spaghetti is blocked with some meat sauce over the top. | |
And it'll fuck up any kind of pipe. | ||
It starts nonsense. | ||
unidentified
|
Absolute fucking hippie crusty idea. | |
Nonsense. | ||
Out of your fucking mind. | ||
Regular wheelhouse. | ||
A linguinie with clams. | ||
A little linguinie with clams. | ||
unidentified
|
A light sauce. | |
It's motherfucking soup. | ||
I like a light sauce with linguinie and clams. | ||
A little bread with some butt on the side. | ||
Some hot light bread. | ||
Tape mequef proof. | ||
You were telling me that there's a way to upgrade my kale shake. | ||
What's the kale shake upgrade? | ||
I wrote a post for you guys. | ||
Here's the thing about raw kale. | ||
It's full of oxalic acid, which is what makes kidney stones. | ||
Oh. | ||
Maybe on you, bitch. | ||
I don't want those. | ||
I've only got one kidney, so I know about the stuff. | ||
Wow. | ||
So kale shakes can give you kidney stones? | ||
This is where I take my notebook out. | ||
I'm going to tell you how to fix it. | ||
Okay. | ||
So, I did a bunch of research because I was a raw vegan. | ||
Like, I've had more than my fair share of kills. | ||
Were you waiting? | ||
Were you a road-raging raw vegan? | ||
I was a road-raging raw vegan. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
It happens. | ||
How is that even? | ||
I've tried everything I can find. | ||
Look, Julie on the side. | ||
That's an odd one, isn't it, Tate? | ||
Oxalic acid. | ||
That's O-X-A-L-I. | ||
I see. | ||
Tate's already taking notes. | ||
unidentified
|
I just put a post up with the recipe for this, but I'll walk you through why it works. | |
So, oxalic acid also is tied to vulvodinia, which is painful sex. | ||
It's basically extreme sensitivity of the vagina in women. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
And what happens? | ||
That's no concern to me. | ||
Trust me. | ||
What are you talking about? | ||
If you were married to someone with it, it would be. | ||
Oh, you're so sweet. | ||
More butt sex? | ||
What if you're not? | ||
Is this also if you're juicing it or only if you're breathing? | ||
Even if you're juicing it. | ||
It doesn't matter either way. | ||
So it turns out that this is the way that the plant protects itself. | ||
From being eaten? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
So basically, if you're kale, you don't want to get eaten by snails and bugs, and you're a nice soft-green plant. | ||
So you put this stuff in you. | ||
It's the same thing that like Aspergillus and Candida, that mold that gives you yeast infections, those things also make oxalic acids one of their ways of protecting their turf. | ||
So wheat has something like that in it too, where it attacks your bowels as you're digesting it. | ||
It's a different chemical in wheat, but it's the same idea. | ||
Like most starch sources and a lot of like soft green vegetables have a defense mechanism. | ||
In celery, it's nitrite. | ||
But here it's oxalic acid. | ||
So in Volvidenia, what they believe, and this is a sort of a mystery illness, but what they believe, at least in one group of researchers, is that this stuff, the acid form of oxalic acid, gets into the body and it goes into tissues, including muscles and your GI system and things like that. | ||
It complexes with calcium and then it forms little crystals, kind of like gout does. | ||
And that this is a trigger there. | ||
There's also a group of people looking into oxalic acid as one of the contributors to autism. | ||
unidentified
|
Whoa. | |
So I'm not saying you can't eat kale. | ||
What I'm saying. | ||
Kale shakes could turn you autistic. | ||
Is that what you just said? | ||
No, that's not what I'm saying. | ||
unidentified
|
Can you just sing? | |
Sing to my carol. | ||
Can you just sing to the carol first and like relax it and throw it in your mouth real fast before it finds out it's getting eaten? | ||
You could try that. | ||
So here's what you do. | ||
Yeah, that's what you do to poison Brian. | ||
You talk nice to it. | ||
You pick dinosaur kale instead of that curly, frizzy kale. | ||
Dinosaur kale? | ||
Dinosaur kale, it's called. | ||
It has like bigger, broader leaves that are less ridged, and it looks kind of like you'd imagine dinosaur skin would look instead of like the real frilly stuff. | ||
Where do you find that shit? | ||
You find that whole thing. | ||
It's regular kale. | ||
There's different varieties. | ||
They don't eat that frilly shit. | ||
Yeah, frilly shorts. | ||
There's no lacy kale. | ||
That's why we have an aversion to lace. | ||
You make the coolest clothes, but put laces all over them. | ||
I'm like, bitch, what are you doing? | ||
Unless you're Dave tomorrow, and then you'll wear that. | ||
You take a girl who wears the same shorts and you put lace on them and you're like, oh, look at this dirty bitch. | ||
You see the little lace at the bottom of the shorts? | ||
The lace could actually make the shorts a little longer, but you see the lace. | ||
You're like, oh, look at this little dirty bitch walking around with lace. | ||
So when you get the vegans to do that, they've actually put kale on their shorts and they get all excited about that. | ||
Do they do? | ||
That's weird. | ||
Yeah, like carrots. | ||
Is that in a carry in your pants? | ||
You just happen to see me. | ||
All right. | ||
So you pick the right kind of kale. | ||
It's going to cut your oxalic acid by about half. | ||
Then you steam it. | ||
You cook it a little bit. | ||
What? | ||
Listen, you cook it a little bit, you dump the water. | ||
Dump the water. | ||
Because the water is what absorbs the oxalic acid. | ||
So you get rid of two-thirds of the oxalic acid that way. | ||
You keep the vitamin K and you increase the bioavailability of the other stuff in there. | ||
When you boil it, when the water comes off of that, it doesn't take vitamins out of it? | ||
It doesn't take many vitamins. | ||
unidentified
|
It takes more oxalic acid than it does vitamin K. You have to be careful of how long you boil it. | |
Yeah, you just want to boil it for like five minutes. | ||
Who did these studies? | ||
Like, how did they test this? | ||
There's two of them up there. | ||
Basically, Oxalic Acid Awareness Foundation, some guys like that. | ||
I don't have their exact name. | ||
I reference it on my blog, but I linked to the original studies. | ||
So what you do is you boil it, toss it in the blender. | ||
Check this out, though. | ||
You can still have kale. | ||
Kale is good for you. | ||
But now it's become a process. | ||
You got to steam it. | ||
It's like five minutes. | ||
It's just this much water. | ||
Throw the kale in. | ||
What if I only have a kale shake once a week? | ||
How much? | ||
It doesn't matter. | ||
Here's what to do if you're only going to have one. | ||
It is cumulative. | ||
So you have an oxalic acid burden in your body. | ||
If you have like, you know, dandruff and yeast problems, that's going to raise your burden. | ||
If you do other high oxalic foods, that's going to be a burden. | ||
So most people, you're going to be fine if you do it once a week. | ||
It doesn't matter. | ||
But here's the trick. | ||
If you're going to do it regularly, boil it and do calcium loading, which is a term that I just finally made up because there's two studies. | ||
One, they actually give calcium tablets to people when they eat kale and 97% less oxalic acid goes into the system because it forms calcium oxalate in the gut and you poop it out instead of getting it in your kidneys or getting it somewhere else in your body. | ||
Or there's another study that says mineral water full of minerals. | ||
If you do that, it also reduces it. | ||
So what I'm suggesting is in the blender, steam the stuff, add butter, add MCT oil to it, add your hemp force protein, any kind of protein you want. | ||
You can still do the same thing. | ||
Now it's a hot drink instead of a cold drink. | ||
It's actually really good that way. | ||
I do it quite a lot, even for lunch. | ||
And then add a little bit of calcium to it. | ||
You do that when you blend it. | ||
The calcium is going to stick to the oxalic acid and you're not going to absorb any of it. | ||
So what are you going to get? | ||
You get less muscle weakness, which can happen if you get these crystals forming in your muscles. | ||
And you're going to get less risk of kidney stones. | ||
And that kidney stone stuff, there's solid research on that. | ||
Wow. | ||
So you've got to put calcium in there, even if it's raw. | ||
Blew my mind to all the people out there that have been eating kale shakes every day because of me. | ||
No, I'm not saying kale is bad. | ||
Kale is really good for you. | ||
You're totally right. | ||
How many people do you think are going to have an issue with this? | ||
Is it a small percentage? | ||
No, I think it's a big percentage. | ||
unidentified
|
Really? | |
Yeah, but you don't know. | ||
Like, Volvidenia is considered a mystery condition. | ||
Maybe it's emotional. | ||
Maybe it's kale. | ||
Maybe it's fat. | ||
You should never eat raw kale, though. | ||
And raw spinach is just as bad. | ||
Raw spinach is not months. | ||
Calcium, you should have that in your diet anyway. | ||
Even if you take ZMA and all that, you need to take calcium. | ||
I don't think, I don't suggest supplementing calcium for anyone unless you're doing something like kale shakes. | ||
Most people need magnesium. | ||
They're way too high on calcium if they eat almost everything. | ||
So I take ZMA all the time. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Good. | ||
I wouldn't do calcium then. | ||
unidentified
|
Really? | |
Your body needs a two-to-one ratio of calcium to magnesium. | ||
So just take magnesium. | ||
You've got enough calcium. | ||
There's not a problem with calcium unless you're pregnant or you're dealing with like osteoporosis and even osteoporosis. | ||
You need K2, vitamin D, stuff like that, much more than you need just extra calcium. | ||
Calcium doesn't stop osteoporosis by itself. | ||
Okay, so for the record, if you want to drink kale shakes, you should drink it with calcium. | ||
With calcium and magnesium, actually. | ||
Take a bump. | ||
Take a bow for five minutes. | ||
And you cook it for five minutes. | ||
Steam it. | ||
Yeah. | ||
How should you do it? | ||
Steam or boil it. | ||
Steaming's better, I think. | ||
And then just drain off that water that's there. | ||
Toss it in the blender. | ||
Toss the water in the blender. | ||
No, throw the water out, but toss the kale in the blender. | ||
I'm telling you, when you do it with butter and MCT oil and you just blend it, it's like the hot, creamiest soup. | ||
Like, I love it. | ||
And I put like upgraded collagen in it. | ||
I put the MCT in there. | ||
So you're still getting the fats. | ||
You're getting whatever protein you want. | ||
You can do it with hemp force, which is really delicious. | ||
And all of a sudden then you're like, wow, I feel great. | ||
And it takes no more time than making a cold smoothie with ice and all that other crap. | ||
And you're protecting yourself a lot from this oxalic acid that's going to build up over time. | ||
Wow, that's a mind blower, dude. | ||
Why am I not hearing about this? | ||
How come you're the guy? | ||
Is that there? | ||
Because I'm a biohacker. | ||
I think about this. | ||
I know, but shouldn't that be, I mean, you think about how much people eat kale these days. | ||
It's always thought of as like a superfood. | ||
But they've been saying a lot, Jay. | ||
I've been saying you shouldn't eat raw kale. | ||
I've been saying that for like the last couple months. | ||
I heard the same thing where the raw kale, you need to cook it first. | ||
Well, we were looking at the issue. | ||
It was a different one. | ||
Also, bacteria. | ||
It's just not healthy. | ||
There's bacteria also that grows on raw kale. | ||
I always wondered about that too with my raw vegetables. | ||
It was the bacteria issue. | ||
It was all the shit that's on there that sucks onto the... | ||
I mean, I was trying to figure out what the other thing was, but it was a fungus that we were talking about. | ||
Yeah, that's a serious issue. | ||
You get gut fungus going on. | ||
That stuff will ruin you, and we don't even measure it. | ||
We just figured out, oh, there's a whole bunch of fungus with all those probiotics in the gut. | ||
So when you juice stuff, should you boil everything that you're doing a little bit? | ||
I don't think you should boil everything that you do. | ||
I'm not opposed to it. | ||
I eat salad. | ||
I had some salad today. | ||
But raw vegetables for their own sake, you got to look at what that vegetable is. | ||
A lot of stuff, like maca root. | ||
Maca root's really good for you, but you. | ||
You got my coffee all the time. | ||
You want to cook maca root. | ||
I actually was about to launch maca root, but the source I had was super high-end. | ||
It was raw, handcrafted, all that stuff. | ||
And then I did the research, and it turns out raw maca is not safe to consume. | ||
And traditional people always gelatinize it. | ||
They cook the heck out of it. | ||
Gelatinize. | ||
Yeah, they cook it until it makes like a sticky gelatin because the raw stuff has all these like anti-nutrients in it. | ||
So what's the powder that I'm drinking? | ||
I don't know, but make sure it's processed maca that's gelatinized, not the raw stuff. | ||
Also, I sent mine through my lab because I test everything for mycotoxins. | ||
13 parts per million of aflatoxin. | ||
He's got a lab. | ||
It's awesome. | ||
That's why I got it because it's a Camry. | ||
So do a lot of wrappers. | ||
It's a Camry. | ||
It's beautiful. | ||
unidentified
|
I'm in my two two-liter bottles, and it tells me how much aflatoxin's in it. | |
I love it. | ||
unidentified
|
He's out there cooking, son. | |
And so it's bad, obviously. | ||
Raw macha is, yeah. | ||
What about celery? | ||
Celery okay to eat raw? | ||
Celery is okay to eat raw. | ||
Just celery? | ||
Ginger root. | ||
Ginger is okay, raw. | ||
Although ginger has problems with mold in it because it's a root. | ||
Roots, they spoil, right? | ||
So if it's dried properly and harvested, well, it's great if it's done right. | ||
But if they cut corners like big food loves to do, then you get all the stuff you're not supposed to be getting in your body. | ||
Same thing with celery. | ||
Basically, I just buy from the farmer's market. | ||
That's the right thing. | ||
But you wouldn't notice, but wild celery can kill you. | ||
It's so hostile because you're a fan of the body. | ||
I dare it. | ||
I dare it. | ||
Step that celery down. | ||
Wild celery. | ||
What does wild celery look like? | ||
It looks just like normal celery, but when bugs and stuff eat it, it makes so many nitrates that when you bite it, it's almost like a poison ivy. | ||
Like it can cause swelling here. | ||
So the celery that we eat is like treated gently so it doesn't make a lot of toxins to fight off bugs. | ||
But you ever see that like bacon, the real expensive bacon that's cured, and they use celery powder and they say it's nitrate-free? | ||
It's total BS. | ||
Celery is so high in nitrite, not nitrate, that when they powder the celery and they put that in the bacon, they're doing the same thing as putting nitrate in there. | ||
They just don't have to tell you it's nitrate. | ||
So celery is a source of that. | ||
Nitrate isn't a problem unless you got bad bacteria in your gut. | ||
That's not going to be a problem if you're eating right. | ||
But I thought there was like all these studies that said the nitrates are terrible for you. | ||
Nitrates and not nitrates? | ||
Is there a difference in how it's bioabsorbent? | ||
There's a slight difference, but the real difference is they're only bad for you if you have the bacteria in your gut that make them bad for you. | ||
So bad bacteria in your gut make nitrosamines, which mess you up. | ||
But you can make nitrosamines out of the gut too. | ||
Like I cure my own bacon, but I block nitrosamine formation when I do it that way. | ||
If I was a girl, I would never talk to you. | ||
If you're talking to a guy, he's like, I cure my own bacon. | ||
Be like, bitch, I got it. | ||
You have no idea. | ||
You tell the right kind of woman that you cure your own bacon, and they're like, I want to go home with you. | ||
Oh, you know, bacon can't be. | ||
Stop talking bacon to bitches. | ||
unidentified
|
If you talk about bacon, it's an aphrodisiac. | |
You can call them the right kind of women. | ||
So what about cholesterol? | ||
Like I've been my own experiment now for some years. | ||
And like you said, starting out, I go pretty aggressively and deep into whatever it is. | ||
And I'm like, let's do this then. | ||
Let's find out what happens. | ||
And so a couple things have happened. | ||
I went completely ketogenic for maybe six months. | ||
Now, what does that mean exactly? | ||
Is that when you don't eat any carbs? | ||
Less than 100 grams a day for a prolonged period of time. | ||
That's like an Atkins style? | ||
Is that, I guess? | ||
Yeah, like that. | ||
Here's the thing about Atkins. | ||
The Atkins diet, he just said eat less carbs, but he didn't differentiate between types of fat, and he let you eat way too much protein because too much protein is inflammatory, too. | ||
So you got people on the Atkins diet, they lose half their weight and they get stuck, and the second half won't come off. | ||
That happened to me. | ||
I lost 50 pounds. | ||
It took me another three or four years to get the other 50 off because I didn't understand moderate protein, ketosis from eating not too many carbs and a ton of the right kind of fat. | ||
And when you just do that, your inflammation goes away. | ||
And all of a sudden, you can lose like 100 pounds like I did and keep it off for 10 years. | ||
That's the trick. | ||
So with that, then I find that after what happened for a while for me anyway, was that for sure my cortisol level changed. | ||
It go up. | ||
Like I got higher cortisol. | ||
I got more stress. | ||
And it was dictated. | ||
It was like overtraining for me. | ||
When you're overtraining, one of the biggest things that you can find, like if you're doing two or three days, is that you'll wake up with your heart racing or something. | ||
If you do that, fucking, you got to pump the brakes. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
You're in a state where you need a few days off or whatever. | ||
So the same thing was happening, and it was just dietary for me. | ||
And so then I backed off and I'd do huge refeeds of squash and things like that and fruit. | ||
And cycle in and out. | ||
What else should I have done? | ||
And how long should he stay in ketosis? | ||
Like just a couple weeks and then refeed? | ||
Or what are you talking about? | ||
I recommend for guys every seven to 10 days to refeed. | ||
And for women, as often as every four days if they can get into ketosis between it. | ||
Women do not do well on a. | ||
That's a short time to get there. | ||
It takes like three days or something to get there, three or four days. | ||
Use MCT oil. | ||
You get ketosis real fast with that stuff. | ||
If not, you go a little bit longer. | ||
But with the coaching clients I've got, the women, they tend to, if they go in ketosis and stay there, they start not dreaming and they get more stressed and like their sleep quality goes down. | ||
And I did like three months of like one serving of vegetables a day. | ||
The rest was mostly fat and some meat and eggs and stuff like that. | ||
That did not end well, man. | ||
After three months of that, I was waking up nine times a night and not knowing I woke up. | ||
I was kind of like my sleep was dead. | ||
And I started getting really dry eyes and dry sinuses. | ||
And I just didn't feel good. | ||
So I found out what happened is that I couldn't even make tears because I didn't have enough carbohydrates to make tears. | ||
So you have to, in my gut lining, because you're a man. | ||
You're not out there crying. | ||
Maybe you just an inhuman fuck and you didn't want to cry. | ||
That is what I'd see though with athletes too. | ||
Those dry eyes suck, man. | ||
Female athletes, they need more carbs. | ||
It's like they can get leaner with more carbs. | ||
I think they can. | ||
Yeah, and their cycle gets messed up if they go too low on carbs. | ||
That's so insane. | ||
I can't believe you couldn't produce tears. | ||
Yeah, well, my eyes were dry. | ||
My sinuses hurt. | ||
And the lining of my stomach, like your stomach has mucus, like they protects it from the acid. | ||
That got dissolved. | ||
I developed new allergies from three months of like zero carbs, essentially. | ||
So that 100 grams a day actually matters. | ||
unidentified
|
And occasionally refeeding with like 800. | |
Yeah, just like go crazy and eat a lot of, not wheat though. | ||
Wheat is a terrible way to refeed. | ||
It'll take you like a whole week to get it. | ||
I'd feel like sweet potatoes and squash. | ||
That's right. | ||
Cheat days actually can be good for you. | ||
As long as you're cheating with foods that aren't full of toxins, like the Tim Ferris style cheat day where you just eat like Snickers bars and whatever. | ||
I tried that for years. | ||
And what happens is it takes you four or five days to recover from the cheat day before, because we're not talking about just like losing a little bit of weight. | ||
We're talking about like rocking everything. | ||
And if you want your brain to work, you want to not have road range and not be a dick when you don't want to be a dick, then I don't think the cheat day with glue. | ||
You just are cutting all the fun out of fucking cheat days. | ||
How much good cheat did you just eliminate right there? | ||
You know what's cool though is the tighter that my diet gets, then the better like what I'm willing to do. | ||
It's like before pizza used to be a cheat day, then now it's like sweet potato fries are. | ||
And where that was a norm, it's like you get dialed in better and you're just like, I just, this is where I want, how good do I want to feel? | ||
And then you go, fuck, I don't feel good. | ||
I just had a fighter that went and he cut a bunch of weight and then he does cake and all like, I don't ever want to sacrifice how I feel to feel like this. | ||
It feels so fucking horrible. | ||
So what about cholesterol then? | ||
Because my cholesterol now is 300 plus. | ||
So cholesterol makes your mustache straighten out. | ||
That's the first thing. | ||
So what are the things that you can't eat if you want to have a cheat day? | ||
Don't eat bad fats like hydrogenated fat, corn oil, canola oil. | ||
And don't eat grain. | ||
Like don't eat wheat. | ||
If you avoid those things, you can have sugar on your cheat day. | ||
That's fine. | ||
But don't eat sugar in the market. | ||
It depends if you're sensitive to casein, the milk protein. | ||
A lot of people should just not have milk. | ||
And you're going to go right to sleep afterwards. | ||
Yeah. | ||
If you're eating clean, and I like if I go to the movies and I'm like, be worth it. | ||
Oh, it's great. | ||
A really good ice cream Sunday. | ||
Isn't it not worth it? | ||
No, it's trash worth it. | ||
I feel it's very worth it. | ||
You can do ice cream. | ||
You can do ice cream that's insane. | ||
The get some ice cream. | ||
Did we talk about that last time again? | ||
Get some ice cream? | ||
Yeah, it's a recipe for ice cream I made, and especially for women when they eat it. | ||
Get some horny. | ||
Does this make a horny ice? | ||
Jardine made this for me. | ||
Keith Jardine made this. | ||
Jardine was trying to get your horny. | ||
Dude, him and his old lady Dodi Escobel, they got me this, and it was like purple or taro root or something. | ||
It was the most delicious fucking ice cream. | ||
They're like horny. | ||
Dude, you haven't tried bulletproof ice cream yet? | ||
Is that what you call it? | ||
Bulletproof ice cream? | ||
I call it get some ice cream. | ||
That's what Keith was calling it. | ||
Bulletproof ice cream. | ||
It's a bulletproof recipe, but it's in my book, The Upgraded Chef book. | ||
It's going to be on the menu. | ||
So here's how it works. | ||
You put like nine egg yolks, not the egg whites, just the yolks. | ||
Like you can give the whites to someone who does low-fat stuff. | ||
And then you put like chocolate and butter and coconut oil and MCT oil in there. | ||
So as much fat as you can fit in this ice cream. | ||
And you put it in the ice cream maker. | ||
You can put whatever sweetener you want in there, sugar, xylitol, whatever, honey. | ||
Stevia. | ||
Stevia is really good. | ||
I don't use sugar. | ||
And when I do it, I use xylitol or stevia. | ||
And you make this stuff and it sends an environmental signal to both of you, but especially the woman, her body is primed. | ||
All women have this if they're still fertile. | ||
And it says, if I'm in a world where there's enough raw materials to make a super healthy baby, I should go to the bedroom and make one. | ||
So you basically give this huge dose of amazing fats, which the body craves. | ||
And then what happens? | ||
You go to the bedroom an hour later. | ||
It's predictable and repeatable. | ||
I mean, Keith was saying it works, right? | ||
Yeah, he got there. | ||
There are like hundreds of people who try this. | ||
It's like, it's just a bad thing. | ||
And it doesn't mean that you have to come inside them either. | ||
What? | ||
Doesn't mean that. | ||
Is it like, does it have any roofie like effect? | ||
Because it's fucking. | ||
You're roofing chicks with your ice cream? | ||
No, I'm telling you, vodka versus get some ice cream, you're going to score more if you make this ice cream. | ||
And their breath will be way better. | ||
The breath is better. | ||
What are you talking about? | ||
Jack Danny is waiting for you. | ||
You just entered into foolishness. | ||
It depends what kind of girl you want. | ||
My awesome hippie ice cream is better than fucking tequila. | ||
In terms of certain outcomes, it works. | ||
It's quality and nice. | ||
What about shitty decision making and good times that last you the rest of your life? | ||
unidentified
|
What about that? | |
I've got my boner for bad decision making. | ||
But you've had the stuff. | ||
You know what I'm talking about. | ||
unidentified
|
It's delicious. | |
Okay, so the full ingredient is so delicious to brief people. | ||
It's egg yolks. | ||
Egg yolks. | ||
A lot of nine egg yolks in one of those little ice cream makers. | ||
A cup of Kerry Gold unsalted butter. | ||
Do not put salt in your ice cream. | ||
It's gross. | ||
And then a cup of coconut oil, half a cup of MCT oil. | ||
MCT ice cream, though, is the shit. | ||
Have you ever had salt? | ||
Like salt, caramel, salt, but salt everywhere isn't so good. | ||
I'm trying to add it afterwards. | ||
Okay, so unsalted butter. | ||
Yeah, a cup of coconut oil, and about a half a cup of MCT oil, which gives it like the creamy consistency. | ||
I had to play around with the ratios there. | ||
The ratios are all in there. | ||
There's the cacao butter in it? | ||
Oh, totally. | ||
You melt the cacao butter in. | ||
It's like eating almost like a mousse when you put the cacao butter in there. | ||
It's so good. | ||
It's so good, dude. | ||
It's a mousse. | ||
I made this. | ||
All right, so I'm going to pitch my book for five seconds. | ||
Hold on, finish the thing. | ||
How does it work? | ||
The recipe's in here. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
And we use this. | ||
Leave us a cliffhanger? | ||
I'll tell you. | ||
How fucking dare you? | ||
unidentified
|
It works. | |
I figure out how to make some healthy morning history when you're like, look, you need to buy my book. | ||
Nah, the recipe is in the book, but here's the thing. | ||
We use it to turn my wife's fertility back on. | ||
It is that powerful. | ||
I made it for her every night, not just for fertility because it was fun too. | ||
But I made it for her every night. | ||
Too much information, Mr. Asprey. | ||
Without pictures. | ||
If she's listening, she's going to kill me. | ||
By the way, she's listening. | ||
Hi, Lana. | ||
Sorry, Lana. | ||
We're just joking around here. | ||
Sorry, Mrs. Bulletproof. | ||
Is there a rocky road? | ||
Do you call her Bulletproof Wife? | ||
No, but I will now. | ||
That's not a bad idea. | ||
That's the next book, Titan. | ||
That's a great name. | ||
Yeah, Bulletproof Wife. | ||
Sell that shit. | ||
So what is it? | ||
It's called The Better Baby Woofie. | ||
Yeah, and it's all just about eating healthy, fast. | ||
It's not just eating. | ||
Everything you can do to change what the environment tells the baby to do with its genes. | ||
Did you see that? | ||
Upgrading your baby. | ||
There was a fortunate story that was in the news about a vegan couple that were arrested and charged. | ||
The woman apparently didn't supplement with B12 and the baby. | ||
It's like almond milk and soy milk or something. | ||
I felt awful when I saw that. | ||
So fucking terrible. | ||
Those were lack of understanding of nutrition. | ||
And they were well-meaning. | ||
They were going out of their way to do it. | ||
Nobody eats vegetarian diets or anything like that because they think it's the horrible thing to do. | ||
They think it's the higher consciousness thing to do. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
Let's talk about that. | ||
All right. | ||
If you're vegan and you're doing it for the environment, you got to understand that hooved animals like cows and sheep are required for soil to not turn into desert. | ||
Because if they don't break up the top of the soil and poop on it, then the soil dies and it forms a crust of algae and water can't go into the soil. | ||
So we've had desertification problems like the Great Dust Bowl and all that stuff that happened around the Depression happened because we killed all the buffalo. | ||
So there's a need for us to have grass-fed cows roaming around. | ||
So even after grass-fed would suck a dick trying to drive from New York to California and this fucking million buffalo making their way across the plains. | ||
I just see big old stakes. | ||
We got barbecue the whole way. | ||
Buffalo on the coffee? | ||
That's their thing. | ||
They're so big and they don't even give a fuck if you're there. | ||
Because they're so goddamn big. | ||
And I would have an awesome coat. | ||
Some guy got fucked up by a buffalo recently. | ||
I was a Yellowstone. | ||
I heard they're wicked smart like dogs too. | ||
Like you can train them as a pet. | ||
Wow. | ||
Ted Nugent had one. | ||
He would ride it on stage. | ||
Oh, Ted. | ||
He used to ride it on stage. | ||
How crazy did he go? | ||
I love him. | ||
He's got a place in Michigan and a place in Texas with high fence operations where he just keeps animals in it. | ||
Except cats. | ||
No cats. | ||
He does not like cats. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
Well, he's probably smart. | ||
No, he talks about hunting them all the time. | ||
Oh, feral cats? | ||
Yeah, feral cats. | ||
No, he shoots thousands of them. | ||
He says, look, they're killing all my birds. | ||
And he takes them out at 500 yards. | ||
That dude is he knows about the environment. | ||
Steve Ranella, the guy from that show Meat Eater, the guy who took me out of hunting, he used to kill feral cats as well. | ||
I think we have a different understanding of what a cat is than what a feral cat is. | ||
I had a feral cat as a pet. | ||
They're wild. | ||
I mean, it's not what you think. | ||
They will kill your livestock. | ||
They'll kill all kinds of people. | ||
They'll kill whatever they kill. | ||
That is a high-level predator. | ||
Yeah, you get chickens. | ||
They'll kill your chickens for sure. | ||
They're ruthless bitches. | ||
Especially if you have a Tomcat, one of those males with their big heads, and they come around pissing on everything. | ||
When you occasionally get a male that gets out that's not fixed, those males get really big, man. | ||
They're huge. | ||
Is that like a goldfish effect? | ||
Like, if you keep the goldfish in the bowl, it gets so big, but like you let that cat out, it turns into a huge car. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Unlimited food because they're killing machines. | ||
They kill like three birds a day or two. | ||
The amount of feral cats there are in the country is gigantic, too. | ||
Folks don't realize it unless you're driving from New York to California. | ||
You know, you stop in some of these towns along the way, but a lot of people just, they're irresponsible. | ||
They're fucking animals. | ||
The cats get out. | ||
They form communities. | ||
They start organizing. | ||
They make kittens. | ||
The reservations are crazy for that throughout Arizona and New Mexico. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
And the people that live there, it's like they don't want to neuter them. | ||
Like there's drives to neuter and spay their animals. | ||
And they're like, hey, don't neuter that. | ||
Like we were on set there and there's dogs that are dying and eating each other. | ||
It's horrific. | ||
And you're seeing straight rape scenes with dogs. | ||
Like on, if there's a dog in heat, if there's a bitch in heat, there's like 12 dogs. | ||
It's the most horrific thing you've ever bad. | ||
And it's right here. | ||
But we were taking one dog because it was tied up to a post and it was been shot with arrows. | ||
And it's getting like, like, just people are, kids are fucking with it, torturing it, right? | ||
So we cut it off. | ||
We asked to take it to the vet. | ||
We take them to the vet. | ||
And they're like, yeah, could you get the shots too? | ||
And do it, you know, all this kind of thing. | ||
And they're like, but don't neuter it. | ||
And we're like, we're just taking the dog. | ||
Like, this is a dead animal. | ||
And so one of the crew people ended up, they said, okay, you can have it. | ||
You know, and they took it and they neutered it. | ||
But there's something against that. | ||
Like, they don't want the, and I don't know why if they only live eight months, probably there and they want a lot more around, but it's bad. | ||
Well, there's a big problem with toxoplasma in third world countries because there's so many people. | ||
It's in the U.S. too. | ||
That's also in here. | ||
We talk about cats and pregnancy. | ||
Is that what we were talking about in Brazil a long time ago? | ||
Yeah, doctors will tell you never touch cat poop while you're pregnant. | ||
I think it's good advice. | ||
It's great advice. | ||
I'm going to try not to touch it even if I'm not pregnant. | ||
Yeah, me too. | ||
Unless you're going to pull it out of your bulldog's mouth. | ||
That's the worst. | ||
So I was telling one of my gay friends, I was like, I figure it's just like that. | ||
Like, some guys just like dicks. | ||
And it said, it's like my bulldog. | ||
He just liked cat shit. | ||
I didn't understand it. | ||
I thought it was disgusting. | ||
But after I did that, I was like, I'm just not going to try to pull it out of his mouth, though, anymore. | ||
So you just do your thing. | ||
I don't want to know about that. | ||
Never want to meet your dog. | ||
Why don't you just cover the, like, what I do is I have like my mind? | ||
I turned it to the wall so only the cat could fit in that. | ||
unidentified
|
So we got from cats to cat poop. | |
I see the connection, so they all start with C. So yes. | ||
There's no connection. | ||
This just shows chaos. | ||
Going to cock next. | ||
There was a bunch of people the last time you were here. | ||
First of all, I loved the recipe for bulletproof coffee. | ||
And what I love about it is because of all the fats in it, the caffeine is on sort of a slow drip. | ||
I didn't figure that out. | ||
I didn't understand that before I really paid attention after you. | ||
I was like, why would it last longer? | ||
Well, that makes sense. | ||
You're blending it up with all this butter. | ||
These beans have about half the caffeine of the dark roast you get from like a Starbucks or somewhere. | ||
They're not high caffeine beans. | ||
Let me add the beans that have the upgraded beans, yeah. | ||
You have a light roast. | ||
It's a medium roast. | ||
So is that better than a dark roast? | ||
unidentified
|
It is. | |
Yeah. | ||
And it turns out the darker you go, the less antioxidants you have and the more acrylamide that it forms. | ||
Is it acrylamide? | ||
unidentified
|
One of the chemicals, PCA, that it forms. | |
And what about as far as the other neuroenhancers of coffee and the fat working synergistically to have that available to our brains? | ||
Well, what you want to do is turn off inflammation in the brain because when your nerves are inflamed, they conduct electricity faster. | ||
So you want to think faster. | ||
You want to basically do everything you can to turn down inflammation. | ||
So what I figured out is if you brew your coffee the way you're brewing it with a French press, that preserves the coffee oils. | ||
And the coffee oils contain diterpenes. | ||
They're called calfestrol and cowahol. | ||
And what these things do is they go into the brain and they turn off certain inflammation pathways. | ||
This is true of like any kind of coffee has that. | ||
So if you take my coffee, which has no mycotoxins and no histamines in it because of the way it's processed, the bulletproof process, and then you brew it right the way you just did before the show in the French press, then what you're getting is these coffee oils that are kind of precious. | ||
They're one of the things that make coffee into a legitimate superfood. | ||
And then you mix it with these other fats and they get into the body well. | ||
One of the other fats you're getting from bulletproof coffee is butyric acid in that butter. | ||
Short-chain fatty acids there. | ||
Those things actually heal the gut, which is kind of cool. | ||
There's only two ways you can get them. | ||
If you're lucky and you have the right bacteria growing in your gut, which a lot of people don't, you may make those in your gut. | ||
But the other place they come from is from dairy. | ||
So you're getting something that turns off inflammation in the brain, which is what short-chain fatty acids do, and it heals your gut, which is kind of cool. | ||
And that's just butter. | ||
That's why butter is a good food. | ||
Now, people were skeptical about your claims that it's mycotoxins, that it's in coffee, that is what's causing discomfort and the crash and all that stuff. | ||
Has that been proven? | ||
Is there a test or a study that you can show that shows that mycotoxins are at X level? | ||
I'm in the very late stages of publishing an IRB approved study of upgraded coffees. | ||
It's an institutional review board. | ||
It's like a legitimate medical kind of study. | ||
Did Joe and I start one and you could just run it through us? | ||
I don't think that you guys are being a sample size. | ||
They call them Dr. Tape. | ||
But so no, I'm working with a guy from Stanford University, a researcher there. | ||
He actually works at Google too. | ||
And we tested your cognitive function on my beans versus major beans, like major normal ones. | ||
Right. | ||
And the difference on, was it, six of nine measures of cognitive function was very substantially different on upgraded coffee. | ||
Why is that? | ||
It's the mycotoxins. | ||
It's also sometimes the histamine, depending on the money. | ||
But have you done tests on various brands? | ||
You could show the mycotoxin levels of these brands. | ||
I haven't conducted those tests, but I don't need to because it's a known industry problem. | ||
And there's tons of stuff I reference on the site. | ||
And most of those don't come from coffee roasters. | ||
Coffee roasters get pissed off when I say this. | ||
Like, if there was mold on my beans, I would see it. | ||
I'm like, guys. | ||
Why do they have a gay voice? | ||
Yeah, what's up? | ||
Have you been to one of those coffee places? | ||
But hold on a second. | ||
I got to disagree with you. | ||
I got to disagree with you. | ||
I don't know whether or not your beans have more or less mycotoxins. | ||
I don't have my own lab. | ||
What I do know is if you say your stuff contains no mycotoxins or less mycotoxins, you should test the other stuff and say what it contains so you can show the difference. | ||
So that's a fair question. | ||
I don't think you should even try to say that they have it until you do that. | ||
If a university has done the study and they've done a study with like thousands of samples all over the place or hundreds of samples depending on which study and they've done them for 20 years, I'm just citing those studies because I don't have enough money to conduct all those studies. | ||
So that has been done? | ||
Yeah, it's been done for the past 40 years. | ||
40 years. | ||
But has the process of how they roast coffee changed since then or how they clean it? | ||
It's actually neither a roasting thing or even really a cleaning thing. | ||
What happens is a bug comes and it bites the coffee. | ||
And we've done studies on the bugs. | ||
We know 50% of the bugs that bite coffee cherries have toxic mold spores on their feet and that that's how the toxic molds enter the chain. | ||
This means if you pick the right coffee and you have someone who's trained at picking unblemished coffee, that that coffee has not been inoculated with the bad stuff. | ||
But then if you're doing like an Indonesian or an African process, you literally pick all the coffee, including the stuff that has bird bites and insect bites and everything else that are ways for this mold to get in there, you throw it on a tarp and you let it sit there. | ||
It sits there for a while until it basically spoils and the outside dries up, and then you rinse it off, dry it again, and ship it off. | ||
The other way they do it is they put it in a big bucket or a big barrel. | ||
They add water. | ||
They let it sit for a day or two and it spoils again. | ||
The outside of the coffee chair gets all like slimy. | ||
So you always have to rinse it. | ||
And wait for it to spoil. | ||
Except with mine. | ||
Mine's mechanically processed. | ||
unidentified
|
I do spoil mean when you say spoiler. | |
You're the only person in the world who does this? | ||
The whole bulletproof process. | ||
I invented the bulletproof process. | ||
I'm the only one that's done every step of the chain and optimized it that way. | ||
What is getting done to your coffee beans? | ||
It's not getting done to anybody else's. | ||
So I'll tell you, there's a couple steps that are proprietary. | ||
I'm not going to tell you. | ||
But the rest of the steps are that I allow zero fermentation during the processing of the coffee. | ||
So people folks, oh, my roast. | ||
I have a micro roast. | ||
I love coffee roasters. | ||
But if you put beans that have problems in, the toxins I'm talking about are heat stable. | ||
This is such a problem that in Europe, they have a safe, acceptable level for ocrotoxin in coffee. | ||
It is not set in the U.S. So if you go to Europe and you drink coffee, they have to test their coffee. | ||
They've changed the whole coffee industry in Europe. | ||
The level of ocrotoxin allowed is eight parts per million. | ||
And if you sell coffee that's above that, in Europe, you're not even allowed to do that. | ||
In the U.S., there is no limit. | ||
So where do you think the cheap coffee goes? | ||
It has to go to the U.S. And I love coffee people. | ||
I am a coffee person. | ||
So when coffee people who have the most expensive, high-tech, amazing roasters, and they spent their life studying coffee, and they're getting beans that came from this great estate, they put them in. | ||
And well, I'm sorry, if those things had histamine or they had mycotoxin or ocrotoxin or aflatoxin in it, then what's going to come out of that roaster? | ||
It might taste and smell wonderful, but you're not going to be at optimal human performance when it's done. | ||
So how did you find the right way to do this? | ||
And how did you go about establishing a business? | ||
And do you buy your beans roasted from a company that you know handles it? | ||
How do you know if a bug just doesn't land on something, though? | ||
Awesome. | ||
It's okay if a bug lands on it because I allow no fermentation. | ||
So the problem is, number one, inoculation, which comes from bugs. | ||
Number two is fermentation, which takes whatever landed on there from the bugs. | ||
So I've got steps like the guys who pick the coffee have to be able to pick beans that are actually ripe. | ||
And the annoying Thing about coffee is that on the same branch, some beans are ripe, some are not, and they're all clustered together. | ||
So, you got to go through and actually pick out the ripe ones if you do it right. | ||
So, typical bulk commodity coffee, they pick it with guys who just strip everything off. | ||
You go to some Starbucks stores, they actually have a photo of like these beautiful bags of beans. | ||
unidentified
|
Half the beans aren't ripe, yeah, they're green and black and bright, they're all different. | |
What the hell? | ||
Who picked those beans? | ||
Not someone who knows how to pick coffee, right? | ||
So, what's going on there? | ||
It was cheap. | ||
You're gonna ferment them anyway. | ||
No one's gonna notice it. | ||
So, how did you form this company? | ||
How did you get about changing the way it's processed? | ||
Well, I paid for my undergraduate studies by selling caffeine t-shirts over the internet. | ||
I was the first guy to sell anything ever over the internet. | ||
It said caffeine, my drug of choice, with a picture of the caffeine molecule. | ||
I've seen those before. | ||
Yeah, I made that up. | ||
I was 22. | ||
Like, I was a kid, and I needed to pay for my school. | ||
I didn't like working at Baskin-Robbins anymore, so I started this little t-shirt thing and put it on Usenet. | ||
It was amazing what happened. | ||
And it was enough to pay for my school, just barely. | ||
So, that was good. | ||
But I had to give up coffee because I kept drinking it, and I would go up and I'd crash, and I'd go up and I'd crash, and I'd get sore joints. | ||
And it turns out I had stacky botris, like the really bad toxic mold living in my house, and it sensitized my immune system to toxic molds. | ||
And I've done all the lab work, and I can show you. | ||
The really bad, toxic suit, like that black mold where they have to defumigate your whole house? | ||
Yeah, guys with astronaut suits come in and that kind of thing. | ||
It's supposed to be a motherfucker. | ||
It will fuck you up. | ||
Like, if you have water damage in your house and you don't hire guys and astronaut suits to come in and test it and clean it, like you could, you could die. | ||
Tom Likas had that. | ||
Tom Likas had that. | ||
He was sick for a while, and they had to go in there and tear his whole fucking house apart. | ||
That happened to me. | ||
Like, they had guys literally, they measured it, and they came back in astronaut suits. | ||
Like, we're not coming in here without these. | ||
Oh, that's insane. | ||
And I was in there, and my immune system got sensitized. | ||
So I'm like a canary. | ||
Like, you give me moldy coffee, I'll tell you within 10 minutes if there was mold in there because it affects, actually, my forehead swells up. | ||
You'll see like a ridge, like a Klingon ridge right here. | ||
What? | ||
unidentified
|
When you have moldy coffee, seriously, my forehead, I have some photos. | |
It like swells up right here. | ||
Please send those photos to me. | ||
I'll put them on Instagram. | ||
That's ridiculous. | ||
So I have magic coffee skills there as well as some other foods, right? | ||
So what did you do? | ||
Did you start a business or did you start buying beans from a business that knew what they were doing? | ||
I gave up coffee first and then I just, I finally said, I'm going to break down. | ||
I'm just going to have coffee. | ||
And I didn't have any symptoms. | ||
And I was so happy. | ||
And the next day I had coffee and I had symptoms. | ||
And I'm like, so I decided, I did all this research, like tons of research. | ||
Then I spent two years like going around saying, how can I like improve the odds? | ||
And I post on the site. | ||
I tell you, how you can find coffee that's kind of clean, and that at least makes a difference. | ||
And then I said, oh, I think I can make coffee that's perfectly clean. | ||
So I talked to some of the top roasters in the country and some of the top bean guys. | ||
And I went around and I interviewed different people about how their beans were processed. | ||
And I explained the bulletproof process to them. | ||
And I said, this is the process I devised based on all my research. | ||
Can you give me green beans like this? | ||
Can you modify your plantation operations to do this? | ||
And they said, yes. | ||
And then I went to the top-ranked roaster in the U.S. and I said, these are the beans. | ||
I want you to roast them. | ||
And then they roast them to my specs, which are a medium roast because that's the optimal health thing. | ||
I may end up doing another roast, a dark roast. | ||
But this was like a multiple beans. | ||
You get a lot of beans from the company, and then you bring them to a roaster? | ||
I get the beans from the plantation. | ||
Like, these are the guys who grow my beans, and they pick them my way, and they'd process every step. | ||
Right now, Central America, I get them from. | ||
unidentified
|
So I have a Guatemalan supply and another couple online in other countries nearby. | |
I'm concerned about the rusts going on down there right now. | ||
Do you worry about it? | ||
The rust? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Coffee fungus called rust is like decimating Central America right now. | ||
They could lose 70% of their crop next year. | ||
Like you'll probably pay a buck more for a cup of coffee a year and a half from now because of this. | ||
Okay, so these people grow it for you and you're ensured they're only picking the ripe ones. | ||
And I tested it. | ||
Did they roast it themselves? | ||
No, no. | ||
Someone else does. | ||
Right. | ||
There's a whole supply chain problem between when coffee's picked and then how it's packed and how it's moved into the U.S. And so my roaster is in the Pacific Northwest. | ||
So they do my roasting for me and then I ship straight from there. | ||
It's a moldy ass place, the Pacific Northwest. | ||
It seems like the worst place to get rid of mold. | ||
It's a fair point, actually. | ||
I should do it in Phoenix. | ||
Yeah, that's the, yeah, there you go. | ||
So now you get it, you roast it. | ||
Do you have like a roasted buy date that you put on the package? | ||
You know, that is in the plans. | ||
Right now, the stuff never sits in the warehouse for like more than a week. | ||
How long can I keep it in my cupboard or freezer or how much? | ||
Yeah, where should it be in my storage? | ||
It'll be safe for six plus months. | ||
You're totally fine there. | ||
unidentified
|
But it'll be most flavorful if you get it in the first month, which is what we like to do. | |
What if I freeze it? | ||
Has that got any benefit at all? | ||
Yeah, freezing has benefits. | ||
Here's what I do if I want to freeze it, is I take a little vacuum packer thing and I suck the air out of it. | ||
If you don't have a vacuum packer, you could just suck the air out. | ||
There's a little valve, a little valve. | ||
We use the expensive valve, not the cheap ones, that lets the CO2 out. | ||
Because when you roast beans, you put them in a bag, they produce their own carbon dioxide. | ||
And that can puff up the bag. | ||
So you need to let that pressure out. | ||
So what you do is you suck the air out. | ||
unidentified
|
You can just go and just suck it as far out. | |
I have a little machine that does that. | ||
And put a piece of scotch tape over it and toss it in the freezer. | ||
And that's going to store really, really well. | ||
And here's where people go wrong when they freeze their coffee. | ||
If you take it out of the freezer, you cannot open that bag until it's room temperature. | ||
Because you know, like a glass will get frosty. | ||
The last thing you want is water getting on your roasted coffee because it'll ruin the flavor for sure. | ||
So what you do then is you just take it out, you let it sit there. | ||
The next morning, you cut the bag open, and you're going to have really fresh, really good coffee. | ||
So a lot of people buy my five-pound bags. | ||
They take those and they put half of it into one of those Costco vacuum seal things and they just toss it in the freezer. | ||
And that's the most economical way to do it. | ||
And if you put it in the freezer, how long is it good for like that? | ||
It's good. | ||
I've never measured the total length. | ||
It probably depends on freezer burn and whatever else is in there, but a long time, like as long as meat would be good. | ||
The internet is a ruthlessly critical place. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
So I know you get fucked with a lot of these ideas. | ||
People claim that they're unsubstantiated and there's no funny. | ||
Why does the European Union have an eight parts per million ocrotoxin and the U.S. doesn't? | ||
Well, there's other things that I've read that show that there's absolutely an issue with mycotoxins and all sorts of food and apples, apparently. | ||
Catuline is what grows in apples or the toxin that comes in apples. | ||
And when you hear stories about Tom Likas'house getting... | ||
Fungus is a real issue in all sorts of different things, isn't it? | ||
It's actually really scary because our bodies work pretty well. | ||
If you eat something that's really spoiled, you'll throw up and you'll get sick and then you'll recover. | ||
And if you were growing your own food or you were a caveman, then okay, fine. | ||
The next day you ate meat that wasn't spoiled or whatever it was and you just go on with life. | ||
But when we have big food involved, they're like, oh, here's the safe limit of these toxins. | ||
So let's dump a truck full of tomatoes into the tomato processing plant. | ||
And some of them are spoiled and moldy and some aren't. | ||
But it's okay because we're at this low acceptable limit. | ||
But our bodies don't like a low acceptable limit because it's like a chronic background noise of inflammation that keeps the body inflamed. | ||
It's not enough to make you sick, to make you throw up, but it might be enough to make you tired, to make you flip the guy off in traffic in front of you to feel agitated and aggressive. | ||
So what I found, trust me, I don't like this. | ||
I would love to just go to McDonald's and get like really healthy food that makes me feel good that doesn't do that. | ||
But I found if I wanted to be bulletproof, I wanted to be at that point where my brain worked and I had all the focus and all the energy I wanted and I didn't get fat like I used to be when I weighed 300 pounds. | ||
You must have surely changed other things as well, though. | ||
It's not just mycotoxins. | ||
I eat 70% of my calories from healthy fats, mostly saturated. | ||
Like, I mean, I've optimized every single thing I can. | ||
But like, I mean, you guys are both in better shape than I am. | ||
But I work out 45 minutes a month. | ||
I do my whole body vibration. | ||
45 minutes a month. | ||
Yeah, I'm not kidding. | ||
I do high energy. | ||
Not a minute less. | ||
That shit's ridiculous. | ||
That's five times more than me. | ||
unidentified
|
That's ridiculous. | |
I'm too busy, man. | ||
Really? | ||
You're too busy? | ||
I mean, I'll stand on my vibration plate. | ||
I do that more often than I can. | ||
Well, how dare you think that's a workout? | ||
It's awesome. | ||
Especially when you have someone else on that. | ||
I have one. | ||
I have a Nintendo Wii. | ||
That's probably more healthy. | ||
That's incredible. | ||
You work out 45 minutes a month? | ||
It's like I lift some heavy things every now and then, basically. | ||
And I do it for very short periods of time. | ||
Doesn't your cardio just turn to dog shit? | ||
He never tests it. | ||
He never tests it. | ||
unidentified
|
Cardio? | |
Cardio's for wusses. | ||
He's like, I got to walk out to my car. | ||
What do you mean? | ||
For real? | ||
Now, what do you know? | ||
What about nicotine? | ||
But hold on, let's talk about this. | ||
He's still working out 45 fucking minutes a month. | ||
Did you just gloss over that? | ||
And I'm a solid dude, right? | ||
I'm not as solid as you guys. | ||
No, you are. | ||
He's solid enough, given that. | ||
45 minutes a month. | ||
So do you have a day that you pick once a month where you just go fucking crazy and lift a shitload of things? | ||
For 15 minutes, maybe. | ||
15 minutes? | ||
It's 315 minutes. | ||
He goes for 90 seconds hard every day. | ||
Three times every month. | ||
And I'm not that religious about it. | ||
So it's like barely once a week, but not really. | ||
If I'm home and I've got access to my vibration plate, which amplifies the effects, I'll stand there with the kettlebell. | ||
I'll hold the kettlebell like this for five minutes vibrating, 30 times a second. | ||
That's what you call a workout. | ||
Oh, you said that. | ||
That's amazing. | ||
That's ridiculous. | ||
But here's the thing. | ||
You need to get into a goddamn jiu-jitsu class. | ||
You know what? | ||
I really want to get into it. | ||
That'll kick that 45 minutes a month. | ||
What's nice is that they weren't everywhere now. | ||
It used to be they weren't everywhere. | ||
You had to get away from it. | ||
You can't get behind those 45 minutes. | ||
You know what? | ||
I'm actually a yellow belt in judo, I'll tell you. | ||
Are you really? | ||
When do you do it? | ||
I did it when I was like 12. | ||
Here's the problem. | ||
I live in a small town, and I'm on airplanes 150 days a year. | ||
So I actually miss even going to yoga classes. | ||
Like, I'm a pretty accomplished yoga. | ||
I can put my ankles behind my head. | ||
What you need to do is go to The Rocks Twitter page. | ||
Go and look at the Twitter page of The Rocks at Twitter. | ||
You want to get driven? | ||
This fucking guy is on a plane probably as much as you, but he posts pictures of himself at the weight room at 6.30 in the morning or at 3.30 in the morning. | ||
Oh yeah, he's in the middle of the day. | ||
Whenever. | ||
Whenever he lands, whatever time he's got, he gets it in there. | ||
He does it. | ||
So in the last three years, I started the Bulletproof Executive. | ||
I moved countries, and I'm a senior executive at this big company. | ||
Like, I'm a vice president at True Micro. | ||
So I'm basically doing two full-time jobs. | ||
And I slept for two years straight less than five hours a night on purpose. | ||
And if I want to work out like the level you guys do, I got to get my sleep. | ||
I would need three more hours of sleep. | ||
I mean, it's not like I'm sedentary. | ||
I'm not some comic that sleeps all fucking day. | ||
I fucking, I mean, like, I'm one of the busiest people that I know. | ||
But how much do you sleep? | ||
Probably seven hours a day. | ||
Yeah, to look like you. | ||
So I do four to five hours a night, right? | ||
And so I could trade, if I work out more, I got to get another couple hours sleep. | ||
And then that's interesting. | ||
So you feel like there's a less of a demand because you don't work out, so you choose to use resources another way. | ||
And that's what I'm doing. | ||
That's a nice way of rationalizing the fact that you only work out 45 minutes a month. | ||
That's what that is. | ||
All I'm saying is, I'm a formerly obese guy. | ||
And one of the things I did is I started this experiment, 4,000 calories a day, five hours or less of sleep per night, and no exercise. | ||
And I was going to try and gain like a couple pounds. | ||
So I could say, look, I should have gained 20 pounds. | ||
I gained two pounds. | ||
I did it for two years. | ||
I should have weighed 616 pounds at the end of that experiment. | ||
And I weighed like a pound more than what I weighed before, like within, you know, an error margin of poop. | ||
So I actually got more muscle mass during that time, though, which was bizarre to me. | ||
So that put the— During that time, I was separating, you supplementing your testosterone? | ||
Yeah, I did a test. | ||
Yeah, that surely had some effect. | ||
Yeah, I keep my testosterone at basically the mid-range for someone who's 30. | ||
And I had very low testosterone because I was obese. | ||
So my testosterone over-aromatizes. | ||
It turns to estrogen very quickly. | ||
At least it used to. | ||
It doesn't anymore with the way I eat and the other supplements I take. | ||
So for me, since 30, I've been using small doses of bioidentical testosterone. | ||
I put them on my armpits. | ||
I do it once a day. | ||
And I measure my blood level. | ||
So I've never been like above the normal levels. | ||
I'm not like super normal. | ||
I'm juicing. | ||
But measuring yourself over this time period where you said you gained muscle. | ||
Were you doing the testosterone before you started that measurement? | ||
Or did you do it while you were doing it? | ||
I've been doing that testosterone every, I wouldn't say every day because I miss a lot of days because I forget to smear it on. | ||
But I've been doing it pretty much since for the last 10 years. | ||
So, no, then. | ||
So, no. | ||
I didn't change it. | ||
I held it constantly. | ||
You already had it. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Huh. | ||
That's interesting. | ||
I don't know why you would gain muscle mass from not working out, though. | ||
That seems like. | ||
I have some theories about that. | ||
I was doing, I invented bulletproof intermittent fasting during that time, which is when you do bulletproof coffee during an intermittent fast. | ||
I'm sorry, but you could be a hilarious Saturday Night Live sketch. | ||
If you get any more famous, you're in trouble because they're going to do a sketch where everything... | ||
You know, this is my bulletproof secretary. | ||
Let's see if your boots are proof, wife. | ||
Yeah, you have to check. | ||
unidentified
|
You ran Out of all right, I'll stop bulletproofing stuff, Joe. | |
No more. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
Fair enough. | ||
It's an awesome name. | ||
It's an awesome name, but we only get to a certain amount of time. | ||
What do you want to call? | ||
I'm just totally busting your rules. | ||
All right, man. | ||
What was the word, the term you used for it? | ||
Well, there's intermittent fasting where you eat nothing. | ||
Interproof fasting. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
And so there's this new thing, and I don't know what to call it. | ||
We'll call it upgraded. | ||
Very powerful. | ||
That's another thing that that's another Ted Nugent thing. | ||
Everything's an upgrade. | ||
Oh, is it really? | ||
He likes to upgrade things. | ||
I got to talk to Ted. | ||
Upgrade America, upgrade this. | ||
That's hilarious. | ||
I had no idea he was doing that. | ||
You got to watch his show. | ||
It's a great show on television. | ||
What show? | ||
Spirit of the Wild? | ||
I had no idea he had a television show. | ||
Dude, you don't even know. | ||
Dude. | ||
Greatest fucking show ever. | ||
It's a hunting show. | ||
And this is what Ted Nunja does every week. | ||
He has a giant piece of land with all these animals. | ||
Okay, so he leaves some food out. | ||
He's got a cameraman with him. | ||
He leaves some food out. | ||
The deer goes to the food. | ||
He shoots it with an arrow. | ||
And that's the show. | ||
It's the spirit of the wild. | ||
It's wild, man. | ||
The nature and spirit. | ||
Dude, what's up about him? | ||
He's cheating his pets. | ||
Just go ahead and look through his album covers, and you're looking at a fucking wild man. | ||
Oh, he's a wild man. | ||
Never done any drugs ever. | ||
He looks like a wild-eyed acid freak from the 60s in most of the shots. | ||
Yeah, yeah, he's a wild hunter. | ||
He loves hunting. | ||
I mean, look, it's the way to procure food if you want. | ||
Keep all your animals in a yard and shoot them. | ||
It's hard to hit. | ||
He's got a preserve, basically. | ||
Yeah, he's got a game preserve. | ||
I have no problem with it at all. | ||
I mean, if I had a problem with that, I didn't have a problem with farming. | ||
I think that'd be incredibly good. | ||
I grew up in Michigan. | ||
I don't know. | ||
There's like 100,000 accidents that happen because of deer in the highways every year. | ||
The DNR, they monitor that shit closely. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
They're on top of that, how many animals we need to call the herd every year. | ||
And if they're not, like, Lye disease happens, all these Lyme disease. | ||
No, Lyme disease is sick. | ||
Dude, in Michigan, it's all over. | ||
North Lyme disease up there. | ||
When the deer population started on the East Coast. | ||
When you have mild winters and there's nothing else that's negating the herd, it gets rampant. | ||
Wow. | ||
And there's a bunch of different diseases like that that sweep through. | ||
There's like Borrelia and some other ones. | ||
Yeah, it's interesting. | ||
And, you know, people don't want to accept that. | ||
You have to call the herd. | ||
That's a real sticky thing. | ||
Look at our life. | ||
Fucking humans. | ||
We're shooting. | ||
Driving a herd. | ||
God damn it. | ||
Driving yesterday near my house. | ||
There's this beautiful deer just walking by the side of the road. | ||
And I roll down the windows, and my kids are all looking at it. | ||
My wife's looking at it. | ||
We're like, hey. | ||
And the deer's just standing there looking at us. | ||
But, you know, it's beautiful. | ||
I absolutely agree with you with everybody that loves them. | ||
But I'd shoot that thing and eat it, too. | ||
There's nothing wrong with that. | ||
I would shoot it and eat it and I would revere it and thank it and be like, that's the way to be honest. | ||
There's a reason why there's not many of them, okay? | ||
There's a reason why I see one like only once every month or so. | ||
It's because there's a lot of fucking coyotes out there that eat their babies. | ||
That's the number one thing. | ||
When people have coyotes near them, they don't have as many deer fawns because they get those fawns. | ||
They get them when they're really young. | ||
Coyotes are ruthless. | ||
They're smart as hell, too. | ||
They're smart as hell and they smell it. | ||
They can smell when a female has given birth. | ||
They can smell blood. | ||
They'll come and they'll call each other and they're pretty sophisticated about their hunting tactics. | ||
They'll take a lot of traps. | ||
They love traps. | ||
I've been out on ATVs with dogs running pit bulls. | ||
And my friend's dog, there's a coyote that's just loping around a curve of this canyon and fucking, it's teasing it. | ||
And it probably starts running after it. | ||
And it's just keeping it. | ||
It could totally take, it keeps it within distance. | ||
They round the corner and you hear, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
You hear it go crazy. | ||
We fucking zip over and there's fucking eight coyotes that are surrounding it. | ||
It's like it lures them in and then they fucking kill it. | ||
It's crazy. | ||
They bite the backsides where all the arteries are. | ||
What happened when you guys showed up? | ||
They split. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Yeah. | ||
They're fucking hunters, man. | ||
Yeah, they'll eat dogs for days. | ||
And they're in the park. | ||
They're in Griffith Park. | ||
Yeah, they're everywhere. | ||
Dude, I've seen it. | ||
They're like in Bollywood Boulevard. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
Just loping down the street. | ||
The first time I saw one, I'll never forget it. | ||
I just started, I had an apartment at the Oakwoods. | ||
You know, those Oakwoods? | ||
They're furnished apartments. | ||
When I first moved here, I didn't have my own place. | ||
And I was driving into the, it was on, in Burbank. | ||
And I'm about to make a turn. | ||
And I look, and I'm like, you got to be fucking kidding me. | ||
There's coyotes like walking down Burbank. | ||
Just their creepy little claws. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Click, click, clacking on the ground. | ||
I was like, this is fucking nuts. | ||
But after a while, you get totally used to it. | ||
There's a pack that lives in my neighborhood. | ||
I see them at least once a week. | ||
There's like three of them. | ||
Where do you think they sleep at night? | ||
I think they're all in the middle of the day. | ||
In the day, rather. | ||
The LA Rivers right next door. | ||
They gotta have like a little burrow. | ||
Yeah, right. | ||
They dig in a little hole somewhere and they just sleep in there. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Like their dens are always in little, like little gullies off the side where there's a little bit of shade and all that. | ||
Yeah, they're creepy fucking animals. | ||
A lot of people think them too. | ||
Oh, they're so beautiful. | ||
They will eat your baby. | ||
Yeah, they're not nice. | ||
They're the cunts of the animal kingdom. | ||
They're really creepy animals. | ||
Coyotes are very creepy. | ||
Killed a woman a couple years ago. | ||
Coyotes did? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Oh, in Canada, but everything up there is huge. | ||
19-year-old singer. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Young girl with a promising career. | ||
Apparently, she had some record contract, and she used to go on these walks in the woods, you know, to calm down. | ||
Those are some hungry fucking coyotes down here. | ||
I live up there, Joe. | ||
There's some big animals up there. | ||
It's not like down here. | ||
Well, you're in, well, I don't want to say where you are, but you have bears where you live. | ||
Victoria's fine. | ||
Basically, it's on an island, and it's mostly wild. | ||
It's fucking awesome. | ||
There's like grizzly bears. | ||
I was there once. | ||
This place is incredible. | ||
We're about to buy some acreage and absolutely, man. | ||
15 pounds, two cows, several sheep, some chickens. | ||
We're going to do it. | ||
It's a good idea. | ||
I've been talking about doing that forever, about getting together with my friends, getting some land, and let's just grow our own food. | ||
Let's have some cows. | ||
Let's add some vegetables. | ||
I did the math. | ||
I can definitely support two cows on that much process. | ||
We started doing that just community-wise. | ||
It's so important, I think. | ||
We started going from just local co-ops, and they start bringing vegetables in. | ||
And I get people together at the gym, and I say, how many of you guys want to go in on a cow? | ||
We'll buy a local grass-fed cow. | ||
Like, I'm really supporting that industry. | ||
And I just, man, I've got 100 pounds of meat in my freezer. | ||
We just split it up. | ||
It becomes like $4 a pound or something. | ||
It's nothing. | ||
I pay three. | ||
It's so much better for you. | ||
There's half a cow in the freezer. | ||
It's crazy. | ||
I'm like, if you're not. | ||
It tastes like game, it's good, dude. | ||
It tastes very different than regular. | ||
You've got to start to vote with your dollars at a certain point when your vote doesn't matter anywhere. | ||
It's like it matters where I fucking spend my money. | ||
There's this thing, Bycott, that is a big one. | ||
Yeah, I was bringing that up. | ||
And it's tremendous. | ||
It's like you're impotent almost at it. | ||
Say what the ad is. | ||
It's Bycott, I think. | ||
B-U-Y-Y-C-O-T-T. | ||
And you can just, yeah, you can get it wherever on your iPhone. | ||
I'm sure you can get it for Androids also by now. | ||
But they're just, and you scan whatever it is, and it looks up and it goes, oh, they support Monsanto. | ||
They support GMOs. | ||
They gave $500 million. | ||
It delineates who's supporting what, you know? | ||
That's a great idea. | ||
We've got to talk about salmon, which is part of this buy-in. | ||
Well, that's the only way that you're really going to be able to change the support. | ||
You can't do shit except with your dollars. | ||
And if you're not supporting local farmers, pretty soon that's going away. | ||
They're already suing people. | ||
They're talking about taking over the corn, the last maize that's really in Mexico, as if that'll be hard to buy an impoverished country. | ||
Of course, they're going to take that over. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
That's just the nexus happening. | ||
So there's maize that's in Mexico? | ||
The last real corn? | ||
Was it like wild or is it like plants? | ||
It's just the farmers that are there. | ||
All our seeds everywhere are subjugated. | ||
So even as local farmers in America, you're going to be at the mercy. | ||
You're going to be growing seeds that are genetically modified seeds. | ||
It's already too far to turn back, really, in that case. | ||
Because they've sued everybody else out of existence, and their seeds are so prolific that they're engineered to dominate other strains. | ||
And that's just what will happen with all grains, with all grown vegetables eventually. | ||
With salmon, now they've made genetically modified salmon that are on shelves that you might have eaten unbeknownst to you. | ||
Yeah, it's really scary because the deal is if the pollen crosses into your field and then exactly. | ||
And what's happening, the pollen does cross in the field, and then they prove that with the like the Supreme Court supports Monsanto in that way is that they go, well, we found this in your field. | ||
He's like, yeah, it cross-pollinated. | ||
It's in my granary or whatever I do. | ||
And yeah, they polluted my thing. | ||
No, no, you're using their seeds and those seeds are trademarked and you're sued out of existence. | ||
And then Monsanto takes that one over. | ||
And that's happened all across America. | ||
They're trying to do it in India. | ||
India is one of the only places that has a class action lawsuit against an independent company, a corporation like Monsanto. | ||
Well, they just lost in Brazil. | ||
Is that right? | ||
Lost a huge settlement in Brazil. | ||
So Brazilian farmers sued him for like dollars. | ||
We're so compromised here. | ||
But that's the last thing I'm doing is I'm going, well, I just have to go local and in my community with my voice to go, here's options that we have. | ||
And you need to be cognizant of where you're spending your dollars. | ||
It's interesting because Kara Santa Maria was on here. | ||
She's a former science person for the Huffington Post. | ||
What's her total title, Brian? | ||
unidentified
|
Science advisor, whatever. | |
Yeah, I don't think she. | ||
Whatever she was. | ||
What was the name of it? | ||
Whatever she was. | ||
Whatever. | ||
Scientist. | ||
She's very smart. | ||
She thinks that the only way people can survive on this planet with the population that we have now is with genetically modified food. | ||
She says she understands that Monsanto may be illegal, or rather unethical and evil, but that genetically modified foods are probably imperative for the survival of the race. | ||
If you believe farming is the core of how to feed people, you might make that argument, but it doesn't account for topsoil destruction. | ||
The only way we're going to make people survive is by pushing agriculture out from being a centralized activity to being a decentralized activity that has resilience built in. | ||
We're doing monoculture everywhere, and GMOs make that even worse. | ||
So you genetically modify something, and then a new blight that's good for that one strain is there, and you're dead. | ||
We all see that. | ||
The whole population dies. | ||
And the other issue is that they're trying to dominate the actual natural corn and the natural non-genetically modified plants by allowing their pollen to get into these farmers and then suing them for it. | ||
And just by the fact that they are suing these guys for it, the reason why they're doing that is because they're trying to dominate them and take them out of the fields. | ||
They're trying to destroy them off the market. | ||
They're using gangster tactics. | ||
Biggest jackets. | ||
But the problem with the scientist lady that you just, yeah. | ||
It's almost, it's like that hippie thing where in public schools, they're saying, no, everybody wins. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
If there's a race, everybody wins. | ||
And they're trying to diminish and mitigate anybody from having a bad feeling about that. | ||
And then, I'm sorry, you turn 17, you get out of school, fucking you find out that people lose all over the place. | ||
And you also, if everybody wins in your construct, you never get to learn that, well, maybe I suck at running, but I'm great at the tuba or whatever. | ||
Nobody finds their own beauty in that. | ||
And so you're trying to make homogenize fucking people. | ||
And that's disgusting and loathsome at one regard. | ||
People need to learn what that hurt and what that sting and what getting punched in the mouth is like. | ||
The other thing is, is that with that, oh, well, not every, I hear that shit all the time. | ||
Grass fat isn't sustainable. | ||
I heard that shit from a woman that's like, well, I'm just trying to lessen my carbon footprint on the earth. | ||
And she works for some environmental agency in Maine or something. | ||
In the meantime, she's infertile and gets all kinds of shit to have two kids and spends thousands or tens of thousands of dollars. | ||
Having a child is one of the most brutal things that you can impact the environment with. | ||
I'm not saying it's bad, all you mothers or whatever, but I'm saying that if nature's not giving you that and for you to force that and force fuck your way into the fucking, into that kind of stream, but be against grass-fed. | ||
But be against grass-fed fucking cows, go fuck yourself. | ||
That's retarded. | ||
That's interesting. | ||
You know what I'm saying? | ||
Force her own. | ||
Well, the thing is, is people, they have the choice right now to eat grass-fed or not, right? | ||
And they go to Taco Bell. | ||
So that being the case, and not culling the herd. | ||
It's a time and a money issue. | ||
Well, what's the money issue? | ||
Because my food costs less than anybody that's eating in any kind of common way. | ||
Like, I can buy meat at $4 a pound. | ||
So what are we doing? | ||
Right, but you're buying it in bulk. | ||
A lot of farmers. | ||
You sure have the ability to do that. | ||
It's $250 for a freezer at Costco that'll hold it. | ||
Yeah, beautiful. | ||
And when titty bars are getting supported all over the place and dudes are dropping a couple hundred dollars in the titty bar to leave with a boner, I'm pretty sure they could put that into a cow. | ||
Yeah, I was going to get grass-fed, but I needed to get my dick road. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
And so, like, that whole thing, if you're talking about people that don't want to achieve, it's like a guy came on and he said, Hey, ask Dave, he hit me up on Twitter and he goes, ask about at what cost do you want to optimize yourself? | ||
And I'm like, What's the deficit? | ||
Like, not everybody wants to get better, not everybody wants high performance. | ||
But if I'm start, decay is real. | ||
So, the deficit is death. | ||
The deficit is that I get worse off. | ||
And so, why wouldn't I want to optimize the years that I have and prolong them if I can do it and mitigate any of the detrimental things? | ||
So, genetically modified foods are bad. | ||
Is that where we got? | ||
She was wrong? | ||
Well, I think that she is short-sighted. | ||
And a lot of my career has actually been designed. | ||
It's just soil green. | ||
That's what she's advocating. | ||
There you go. | ||
Science over nature. | ||
That's what she seems like about. | ||
It seems like wanting to believe in science over nature when there's all these natural foods that are already here that actually are healthy. | ||
Right. | ||
And sustainable and resilient. | ||
And I've built resilient systems like cloud computing for a living for many years. | ||
And one of the things you do is you make things a little bit different so that if a hacker gets these ones, they can't get these ones. | ||
So what we're doing with potatoes and corn and soybeans is we're just monocropping. | ||
So all it takes is one thing and they're all gone. | ||
We've gotten rid of like three quarters of the domesticated species that we used to work with in terms of seeds. | ||
They're just gone. | ||
We don't have them anymore. | ||
And it used to be that, you know, there's a thousand varieties of potatoes and fruit. | ||
That's insane. | ||
And it's just unconscionable. | ||
It's got to stop. | ||
You talk about what the unknown things are that are in the rainforest that are getting cut down. | ||
Like all the different plants that we haven't even classified yet that are being destroyed on a daily basis. | ||
Like there's so much shit on this earth that we don't even know of. | ||
And for the arrogance to come in and say, we need to homogenize all grains, meats, and everything so that we can feed a whole population in 20 years from now at the rate that we're growing and expanding, that's so ridiculous. | ||
And it's such an arrogant viewpoint. | ||
It's coming from such a place of scarcity also. | ||
It's like even consciously in my own life talking about people and what changes are. | ||
And as long as I'm going, I need more, I need this, I need that, I need more money or whatever, when I'm thinking of that way as a kid, it's like there's never enough. | ||
But when I go, I need to make my boss some more money. | ||
Like I need to make this business run better. | ||
When I did that, fucking things grew for me crazy exponentially. | ||
Somebody was giving me a ride from the airport the other day and they're like, oh, well, these podcasts that you do or when you go and speak at schools, Tate, or when you run this, or like, does that stuff give you money? | ||
And I'm like, well, not in a conventional sense, but I guess existentially, perhaps. | ||
But the thing is, is like, I don't want anybody that's after money. | ||
I want people that are after a fucking revolution. | ||
I want people that are after a whole movement that's moving in a positive, progressive manner. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
And that stuff of that homogenization of America or of the world is not. | ||
It's just creating more borders. | ||
And like David said, if there's a strain that comes up, then that is fucking wiped out. | ||
And now what? | ||
Because I was so arrogant to think that there was scarcity and that I needed to control this and get my grips on it. | ||
It's like, it's crazy. | ||
Go stand by the ocean. | ||
You ain't shit. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
We're all moving in a whole different way. | ||
It's a revolution against being mediocre. | ||
Because here's the thing about this. | ||
How dare you at what cost to optimize? | ||
You're going to live your whole life being mediocre when you could have been awesome and great. | ||
Isn't that a much bigger waste than what? | ||
It's like spitting in the face of God. | ||
Whatever you believe in, it's like so you're just okay with not succeeding and with not showing anybody else behind you how to get better. | ||
It's like when you go on rants and you're talking about, you know, you've got a bunch of mediocre people that have mediocre kids and everybody is mimicking that. | ||
It's like, don't I have a responsibility not only for like whether it's for my fitness or to protect somebody weaker than me or whatever it is, but to be the best that I can be so that you can show the next generation. | ||
It's like when Jesse Owens runs and he's the fastest man in the world until people see that, they go, that's the fastest man. | ||
And then the next year, what? | ||
Somebody's faster. | ||
And now with the internet and the progressiveness of all this, with these ideas, it's crazy to think that I would be anything except optimized. | ||
Like, why? | ||
That's ridiculous. | ||
I have choices. | ||
Yeah, you owe it to the world to kick ass. | ||
And if you're not doing that, it's not even about doing it for yourself. | ||
It's you owe that to your community. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, I agree. | |
I'm not doing shit for the world. | ||
You shut your shit. | ||
Oh, my community. | ||
I'm such a fucking liar. | ||
You're opening that damn. | ||
You shut your fucking mouth. | ||
I'm not call bullshit on that. | ||
I'm not getting up and going to the gym for the community. | ||
I'm not. | ||
I'm a grown-ass man. | ||
Bullshit. | ||
Do shit for me. | ||
unidentified
|
There's nothing wrong with doing shit for yourself, but you owe it to them. | |
Well, you know, I'm fucking around. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
But realistically, you don't owe them shit. | ||
Sit back on your couch. | ||
I think that the idea that there's a separation between us and that is the thing. | ||
And I know you know it's bullshit too. | ||
It's like if we're all vibrating at a higher level of consciousness that is in sync with whatever the universal vibration is, there's not hiccups in the gears. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
And it's that illusion of separation that keeps us all in this fucking muted state of consciousness that creates road rage, that creates like the idea that I need to control the ocean or the fucking crops or whatever. | ||
That's why meditation is so important because when you start feeling all that stuff, you realize that you're not as separate as you think you are. | ||
Well, also, I think people need to hear from people like yourself or either one of you who have experienced ups and downs and have some idea of what has changed in their life that's been beneficial. | ||
And that way, a person listening can learn without having to go through any of the mistakes that I or you might have made. | ||
So huge. | ||
It's very huge. | ||
It's very important. | ||
It's unfair that I had to spend $300,000 and then I could spend $300,000 on all the stuff. | ||
I want to thank you for that right now. | ||
It's incredible. | ||
I mean, the change that that's made and then that the internet's made. | ||
And Joe, I would have never started a podcast without you going, dude, you've got to make people privy to whatever conversations and madness and enlightenments there are. | ||
And then I thought, too, man, when I was talking to coach a couple weeks ago, I did one with Mr. Greg Jackson that was fantastic. | ||
And I would have never maybe seen Greg again or seen him in passing, but to go and set aside time for conversations with people that you admire and that you revere and that you're like, oh, this is like, fuck, what an opportunity that is. | ||
And you get to put it out there so other people can experience it too. | ||
And these people that have been so formative in your life, right? | ||
Yeah, weird, cool people that you meet and talk to. | ||
I don't know where we were when we went on this little term. | ||
Mental illness. | ||
But The idea that we could do a better job than nature itself and the idea that Monsanto owning life forms is a good idea. | ||
Being able to patent plants. | ||
It's worse than Monsanto because they own you. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Because right now the human genome is essentially all patented right now. | ||
Well, remember when they there was a guy that there was a guy last year that got charged by the DEA with transporting drugs because he was saying there's a thing in Boulder or somewhere like that where you can do stem cell shit. | ||
And they're saying you're taking your own body across state lines. | ||
That's a fucking federal crime because you're going with the intention of taking your stem cells out. | ||
That's a controlled substance, right? | ||
That's a drug. | ||
And so they fucking charge this poor cocksucker with transporting illegal drugs across state lines because they want to stop that fucking progress. | ||
And get this, like Angelina Jolie, she had her breast amputated because she was afraid she might get cancer. | ||
Now, there's a lot about epigenetics, a lot of research I've done there about how your environment affects your cancer risk. | ||
And I'm sure she thought she was doing the right thing. | ||
But here's the thing, the company that does the test for BRCA1 and 2, the genes that she has that put her at high risk, they own those genes. | ||
They patented them. | ||
They can restrict anyone else from doing research on those genes, even to prove that those genes don't do anything. | ||
What? | ||
I'm not joking. | ||
The company does that, they make like a billion dollars a year off breast cancer genes, and no one else is allowed there unless they say so, because they own the gene. | ||
They make a billion dollars a year off breast cancer genes. | ||
How about the test? | ||
They charge $4,000 to $5,000 to test you for this BRCA gene that they've identified. | ||
And they own the testing for that. | ||
And they own the use of that gene. | ||
And here's the thing. | ||
I sequence my whole human genome on 23andMe. | ||
It's 99 bucks, right? | ||
So why is it that the machines have gone down in price, but it's so expensive? | ||
It's because they have a monopoly on it. | ||
It's patented. | ||
So there's a huge percentage of the human genome is patented and basically owned by companies. | ||
And it's only owned because the Supreme Court said so. | ||
So are you calling it? | ||
It's got to stop. | ||
Are you calling bullshit on the numbers of people that will get breast cancer because they have this gene? | ||
Do you think that that is something that they have put out there to get people to test for it? | ||
I think that there is a risk associated with the gene, but that the environmental risk trumps that. | ||
That's the core of epigenetics. | ||
That's the core of my whole book here. | ||
It's the environment controls what genes get methylated. | ||
And methylation is basically when RNA comes in to copy DNA, it has to be able to methylate things. | ||
And the environment controls what the RNA can copy. | ||
Environment meaning specific chemicals in the air or environment meaning chemicals, foods, love, relationships, all of it. | ||
So how stressed are you? | ||
How stressed are you? | ||
So in fact, those are like the main pillars in this thing for making like optimized children who like have every opportunity you can give them. | ||
You need to control your own stress. | ||
The light you're exposed to is part of your environment. | ||
The smog you're exposed to, everything goes in and changes your genes and it changes them on a very frequent basis. | ||
And how exactly does that work for the lay person who doesn't understand genes? | ||
How does it change your genes? | ||
Imagine there's like a firewall around your DNA and your DNA stores the set of things, your potential. | ||
So there's a firewall and your RNA comes in to copy that DNA. | ||
When it tries to come in and copy the DNA, it can only copy what it can get past the firewall to see. | ||
And the firewall is configured by the environment. | ||
So it turns out your exposome, the set of everything you're exposed to, your emotions, your pollution, your toxins, when you exercise, when you sleep, the quality of your sleep, everything that changes these things. | ||
So you might have a statistically higher chance of getting breast cancer from BRCA1 or BRCA2. | ||
But can you account for that by going to sleep earlier, by eating things that don't contribute to cancer? | ||
Like what are the environmental things you can do to balance risk? | ||
So what Angelina Jolie did is she ignored the things she could do to balance risk as far as we can tell. | ||
I don't know Angelina Jolie. | ||
I've never met her. | ||
But she went ahead and made this relatively drastic decision. | ||
Like I can tell you, there's X amount of chance of me getting arm cancer, but I'm not cutting off my arms, right? | ||
And seriously, the line of thinking that says you amputate things that might get sick instead of monitoring them and doing everything in your power to keep them from getting sick, that seems broken. | ||
There's a school of thought on some forms of cancer where some families just have some unavoidable form of cancer. | ||
I mean, there's a lot of people who are. | ||
I remember when Congress or somebody got breast implants, and that was a thing that she put out to the press. | ||
She says, I did this as a precautionary thing because everybody in my family got breast cancer. | ||
And I was like, whatever reason you did it for, awesome. | ||
Did she really say that? | ||
Yeah, that was her press review. | ||
Back then it was like she was probably afraid of judgment of the, you know, oh, you're trying to augment yourself in this regard or that regard. | ||
And so she said, you know, and that's, I was like, that's legit, man, whatever the reason. | ||
So there's a whole class of cancers that form after you're injured. | ||
So where there's like a scar or an abrasion. | ||
So even the act of doing breast removal creates another risk factor for cancer. | ||
And what's the risk of having a microstroke under surgery? | ||
It's like between 2% and 5%. | ||
Like it's not a risk-free thing. | ||
I just feel like there's huge amounts of fear for some things when you're the body. | ||
Like you alter the body. | ||
And in a way, all surgeons will say that. | ||
They're like, if you can avoid surgery at any cost, please do that because we alter your body. | ||
All the fascia that is one piece that covers everything. | ||
It's even a staph infection. | ||
I was just talking to Bob Cook and he was telling me about a staph infection he got from his scratch. | ||
All of a sudden his fucking, I think it was his elbow, blew up like crazy. | ||
He took drugs right away. | ||
It wasn't good enough. | ||
Had to go to the hospital. | ||
Those strains are changing too. | ||
And they're getting more and more resilient and more resistant to whatever antibiotics you can get. | ||
But then also, I'd have you think when you think about like the cellular regeneration that happens with cancer in an abnormal form, that shit is completely fed by sugars. | ||
And so like that, that having a low-fat diet and all that is really harmful. | ||
There's a lot of good evidence to eat in certain ways. | ||
Healthy fats, low shots. | ||
And sugar is so bad. | ||
If you can control your insulin, you can control, you can mitigate a lot of cancer. | ||
Cancer has 28 times more insulin receptors on it than a normal cell in the body. | ||
So that means when you eat sugar, you're basically feeding the cancer in your body. | ||
In fact, there's a kind of... | ||
If there's a lot of sugar, they'll go crazy. | ||
There's enough cancer. | ||
We had a speaker at Silicon Valley Health Institute come in and talk about insulin-potentiated chemotherapy. | ||
They take chemo drugs at like 10% of the normal concentration and they inject them into you with insulin. | ||
And the cancer cells love insulin so much that they just soak up the poison and the rest of you don't. | ||
Crazy. | ||
Yeah, and that's how powerful sugar is. | ||
So if you're at high risk for breast cancer, you ought not to eat polyunsaturated oils and you ought not to eat sugar, especially fructose. | ||
If you do that, how do we know what percentage reduction you have? | ||
So if you have an 87% increased risk or an 87% risk in entirety, no one's tested what that looks like when you take these other lifestyle things. | ||
And if you did that right, maybe then you monitor and you decide based on your progress whether you're going to have a surgery or you're not going to have it. | ||
But to just kind of reactively do it because of the results of one proprietary gene test, to me, seems kind of scary. | ||
And the fact that this company owns those genes, so I'm not allowed to do my own research on them. | ||
I'm not allowed to have a university do research on them. | ||
Obviously, I've done no research on your not doing any research, so I don't know whether you're telling the truth or not about that. | ||
But if that is absolutely right and correct, it's fucking crazy. | ||
I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not. | ||
You have to look at the food actuation. | ||
You look at the idea that Monsanto can patent different plants and that they, in fact, tried to patent different parts for pigs. | ||
It's not Monsanto that owns the human genome. | ||
I forgot the name of the company and just said it. | ||
It's like bio something. | ||
But just vis-a-vis the fact that your stem cells are a controlled substance, that you can be sued for walking your body around if you have the intention of doing that testing. | ||
Was that some John Ashcroft nonsense that happened during the day? | ||
It was about a year ago. | ||
It happened, a year and a half ago. | ||
Really? | ||
But then the fact that people owning genes or all that, is it outlandish then to think that I wouldn't want to create an illness if I had stocks, say, in this big pharma company, in this grain manufacturer? | ||
I mean, fuck, man, I want to create the problem. | ||
It's like Halliburton. | ||
It's like, of course you want BP to fucking blow itself up in the Gulf because you're the only one that's saying, I can clean this up even if you can't, whatever, and I'm going to fleece the taxpayers. | ||
It's all how can I fucking co-opt to make as much money and double down on this as I can, and I'm going to buy tragedies. | ||
And that's what American corporations are doing. | ||
I don't know if people are making diseases, but I know if you gave someone the opportunity to make a disease that would kill a few weak people, but make you a billion dollars, a lot of companies would be down for it. | ||
They would figure out a way to legally make it happen. | ||
It's called diabetes, right? | ||
Google Type 2 diabetes. | ||
Yeah, late onset diabetes. | ||
Well, how about cigarettes? | ||
And then the fact that cigarettes kill who knows 400,000 plus every year in this country? | ||
Look at the history of the pharmaceutical and chemical companies. | ||
You know where they all came from, right? | ||
Oil companies. | ||
You go back 100 years to like the Chrysler Chemical Company. | ||
They came right out of the oil. | ||
So oil first, then oil split into chemicals and pharmaceuticals. | ||
And these are like the old historical roots. | ||
So companies like Bayer out there that came straight out of oil and chemistry. | ||
So they split into making chemicals, they split into making drugs. | ||
Chemicals make you sick, drugs make you well. | ||
And it's kind of a virtuous cycle. | ||
I'm not saying that there's a conspiracy and that these companies are trading stuff back and forth. | ||
It's an emergent behavior. | ||
Most people actually aren't evil, and most people aren't going to kill someone sitting across from them or even poison a whole country to make money. | ||
A few evil people will. | ||
But the problem is when you make a whole bunch of small decisions to optimize profit, you end up with the American healthcare system, which is more expensive than any other country and produces suboptimal results. | ||
It's not because there's some evil puppet master. | ||
It's just because over time, everyone optimized every micro decision in order to get the most profit instead of the most human wellness. | ||
And when you do that, you end up with mediocrity. | ||
And that's what we're trying to start a revolution against. | ||
There needs to be some complete total transparency as far as what people's actions in terms of companies and corporations and how that affects human beings. | ||
That should be the bottom line. | ||
That should be the true bottom line. | ||
And then we look at profits. | ||
This should be like a real honest and accurate account. | ||
If your laptop costs you $50 less than it would if people weren't jumping off roofs, maybe they should set it up so that you have to pay $50 more for your fucking laptop. | ||
Or they make $50 less per laptop. | ||
One of the problems, I think, with the healthcare industry, and I don't fucking know shit. | ||
I mean, I'm this side of not needing Velcro shoes to fucking walk around in. | ||
Velcro shoes are the shit. | ||
They really didn't get the respect they deserve. | ||
They're far better than laces. | ||
The whole idea is that we're basing it on the assumption that you're a broken being that's coming to a doctor and looking for wellness instead of like that you come from a perfect wellness and how to restore that state. | ||
We're looking to like I've got a friend that's been trying to get off Paxil for three years now. | ||
And every time he goes into the darkest fucking holes and he'll forget parts of his days. | ||
He'll be in a walking blackout. | ||
How do you do that? | ||
Do you have to wean yourself off that? | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
But even then, man, when he's off it, it's one of the more serious SSRIs, I guess. | ||
And it's like it's coming from that kind of thing of you're broken and how to get you well. | ||
And they're like, well, maybe you just need to be on it forever. | ||
And it's like, man, that's a fucked up proposition when I go, so I just came into this life broken. | ||
Or like, why is it now that there's 80 inoculations? | ||
Why is it such a pronounced autism? | ||
Why is that such a pronounced disease right now? | ||
Well, it's also the autism tends to be males are having babies much later in life. | ||
That's what they've directly attributed to it. | ||
Guys are late 40s and they're pumping out kids. | ||
It's very likely that that kid's going to have some issues. | ||
We have a whole chapter in here about what to do. | ||
Not late 40s. | ||
I think, I mean, not very likely. | ||
I should say it's like, you know, whatever, low percentage, but it's much higher than it is when you're 20 or when you're 30. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Yeah, the dad's age matters a lot. | ||
And also how much drinking? | ||
I mean, you make semen, you make sperm like on a regular basis, every three or four days. | ||
So what, you know, were you drunk actually matters. | ||
Yeah. | ||
You know, you could fuck up your loads with food. | ||
Well said, man. | ||
How sad. | ||
Brian. | ||
You got healthy loads still, don't you? | ||
Not that you just said that. | ||
Yeah. | ||
It's a fascinating thing. | ||
You know, the development of human beings has not really been accurately assessed or really diagrammed. | ||
It hasn't been really engineered in a conscientious, objective, and really positive way where you've looked at what is the best way to optimize being a human being on this planet from the way you think about things to how do you behave and what kind of food you put into your body. | ||
It's really difficult to acquire this kind of information. | ||
And what kind of job do you have? | ||
dude, I remember riding to the airport with you and going, Jesus, can you imagine being on this slave ship every day, talking about driving down the 405 every day at 9 a.m. or whatever it is? | ||
And it's like those kinds of things. | ||
I was looking at like every industry that I've been in in my adult life, which has been pretty much to try to not have a job. | ||
And I've been pretty good at it, but having a job without having one. | ||
And like I've got like the concrete cowboy is a nightclub in Dallas. | ||
And one of the managers that's there, he's like, you know, all we're doing is the people that are working Monday through Friday, this is what it is. | ||
Like, I can't wait to get out. | ||
And you're causing a distraction. | ||
You're causing an illusion for them to enjoy their life. | ||
And the next Monday and Tuesday, that's what they're talking about is what a great time they had. | ||
By Wednesday and Thursday, I can't wait till I do this again and recreate this. | ||
In my gym in Santa Fe, it's the same kind of thing in a healthy way of like, how can I reduce stress? | ||
How can I enhance lifts? | ||
How can I learn how to strangle people better? | ||
It's like people are getting different skill sets in that way. | ||
But everything is like, how to avoid the life that I have to have so that I can have another life kind of thing. | ||
Or making films is the same way. | ||
I mean, that's the only film. | ||
the film industry, I think in the great depression was the only thing that remained static or maybe went up because people are trying to avoid the horrific fucking existence that they're having. | ||
And so how is it that instead of having a life that I want to escape, I can build in a life that is satisfactory and that I can, Yeah, for sure. | ||
Yeah, if you ever meet a guy who just likes to make knives, he loves making knives, and that guy's a happy motherfucker. | ||
Dude, and that's what it is. | ||
Whatever it is that turns you on, fucking do that thing, man. | ||
Yeah, it's really fucking hard to do, though. | ||
It's really difficult for me to get to that state. | ||
So I got some news on the human genome. | ||
Every part of the human genome sequenced by the Human Genome Project was made public immediately. | ||
In fact, new data on the human genome is posted every 24 hours. | ||
And it is true that some private companies have filed thousands of patents on human genes over the past several years. | ||
And it says we don't know how many such patents have been filed, whether the patents will be awarded, or if they're enforceable. | ||
Most of the patent applications have not been acted upon. | ||
So we really don't know how much, if any, of the genome can be used freely for commercial purposes. | ||
It's a dude named Easty McVan from the message board posted that. | ||
So if you look at the company that owns BRCA1 and 2, as far as I understand, those patents are legit and that they've been accepted. | ||
And they also own the testing for that. | ||
And no one else can test for it, even though it's like, oh, the gene's there. | ||
I can't talk about it being there. | ||
And it's because they own the genes that in owning the testing, they stopped anybody from competing with them and also testing for the genes. | ||
Yeah, so if anyone else wants to do a report that says you have the BRCA1 gene, they can't say that. | ||
What about if someone wants to do research on the gene? | ||
Can't do it. | ||
You can't do research on the gene. | ||
Not according to the stuff I read, no. | ||
Wow. | ||
If that is true, that is pretty fucking bonkers. | ||
That's nuts that people would let humanity get trumped by the bottom line. | ||
It's going to cause a revolution. | ||
You'll be able to sequence your own genes in your own house in not that much longer. | ||
You look at Moore's Law, how fast the price of this is done. | ||
Early in my career, I was with this program called Double Twist. | ||
They were a customer of this big data center I worked for. | ||
We had a whole floor of a skyscraper in Oakland, and it was just packed with these million-dollar servers to sequence the human genome and to make it go online. | ||
And now for $99, I can get that same thing done for my DNA. | ||
And this isn't, I'm still alive. | ||
unidentified
|
Like this only happened over the last 15, maybe 18 years. | |
That's incredible. | ||
So if you go forward another 10 or 20 years, you know what? | ||
Screw these companies. | ||
It's all going to be open source. | ||
It has to be. | ||
Otherwise, they're going to own us. | ||
So they're trying right now. | ||
It's almost like the last ditch effort at the end of this weird digital age before we progress to the next state. | ||
People are still trying to cling on to really shitty thinking and corruption. | ||
This strikes me as corruption. | ||
It's all corruption. | ||
It really is. | ||
The fact that any of these laws could have been allowed to take place, that you could have ever allowed anybody to patent a life form. | ||
It's own a life form and then sue people else for also having the seeds of that life form when you know it could be cross-pollination. | ||
That's just straight evil. | ||
No sane person would ever do it, but companies, they're insane. | ||
They're not sane people. | ||
I'm being on a regular basis shocked by how transparent some of these things are, how transparent the connection between Monsanto and money and influencing politicians and different things that are getting snuck through Congress. | ||
And you're hearing about the Monsanto Protection Act or supposedly whatever it's called. | ||
What people are calling the Monsanto Protection Act. | ||
And it's so gross to see corruption so obvious. | ||
It's so flagrant. | ||
It's so gross to see a group of people that are supposedly our leaders that have virtually no inspirational things to say whatsoever. | ||
There's not a single one who ever gets up and says, what we need to do is eat healthy food, drink a lot of water, get a lot of exercise, meditate, and follow your passion. | ||
You need to surround yourself with good people and be good to those people. | ||
Or like monitor the news in a different way. | ||
Like, why isn't that looked at? | ||
Like, let's get actual news instead of fear tactics. | ||
Yeah, I don't watch the news anymore. | ||
I just want to say that. | ||
Someone's got to figure out a way to make money from telling you the truth. | ||
If they can make the same kind of money, if CNN can make more money by being honest with you than they could about being county and bullshitting and having Anderson Coover in front of a green screen, maybe we would trust them more. | ||
Maybe you can actually make money that way. | ||
It's weird. | ||
I was listening to some tapes of Ronald Reagan after he's like, it was the whole thing we don't negotiate with terrorists talk that he's giving. | ||
And he's saying we totally didn't do that. | ||
And there's no lessoning. | ||
We didn't have any kind of interactions with them where there was arms for hostages type of thing. | ||
Are you talking about when he took over? | ||
Yeah, yeah. | ||
And then he says one month later, I know I said that once and I believe in my heart that it wasn't true, but it turns out that the facts are different than what my heart would like to believe. | ||
It sounds crazy. | ||
But you see that happen with Obama's talk about NDAA in the same speech. | ||
There's not a month apart. | ||
It's like in today's day and age, Reagan would have just never, he would have never thought about that first speech. | ||
He would have just maybe not even made an issue of it. | ||
But here, Obama's saying, this is totally bad. | ||
We'll never do any of these things, but I'm going to sign it in anyway. | ||
Yeah, that was the most ridiculous thing ever. | ||
We'll probably never use it, but we're going to sign it. | ||
Well, it's pretty obvious at this point that the president doesn't really get the chance to say what goes on. | ||
It's not one person. | ||
They're not allowing that. | ||
It's pretty clear. | ||
However, it's also pretty obvious that whoever gets to be president is never going to fucking talk about it. | ||
Bill Clinton talks about a whole lot of shit. | ||
He doesn't talk about the Illuminati. | ||
It's weird. | ||
It's what he is. | ||
It's what he does. | ||
And as it becomes more and more transparent, as it becomes revealed more and more how much of a foothold big money and big corporations have in governments all over the world, the more it becomes ridiculous that they don't talk about it. | ||
So they were never really our president. | ||
What they were, were really good at saying the things that we really like to hear while they were being a gangster working for the top dicks in the world. | ||
That's really what they did. | ||
I smell shit. | ||
I don't know. | ||
Oh, that was Tate. | ||
I wish. | ||
It smells like dog shit. | ||
It doesn't sound like. | ||
Be careful where you roll. | ||
Maybe she just ripped one. | ||
She's over there sleeping. | ||
She's right there, yeah. | ||
Jeez, Louise. | ||
I just caught one in the face. | ||
It was definitely an animal fart. | ||
That's rude, by the way. | ||
Change your dog's food. | ||
She doesn't smell like farts. | ||
Oh, Jesus Christ. | ||
You think it clings to her like a fog? | ||
She smells like a beautiful little puppy. | ||
What do you think about There's a lot of people that are going to Europe, and they're going to Europe for treatments that aren't available in the United States because the United States during the Bush administration had a bunch of wacky fucking restrictions on stem cell research. | ||
So the Europeans got way ahead of what America is doing as far as things with stem cells. | ||
And a lot of professional athletes have been going over there to get these really crazy cutting-edge treatments. | ||
Like Dana White went over there. | ||
They pulled blood from his body, spun it in something, and it incubates for 10 hours, and they pump it back into his body, and it completely cured his Munier's disease. | ||
He goes back again to do it like in a few months, but he's like, what they're doing is like fixing people that have injuries they could never fix before, people with like fucked up backs, like Peyton Manning apparently went over there and got his neck fixed. | ||
What do you know about that shit? | ||
I haven't done a lot of specific research on stem cells themselves. | ||
What I do know is that a lot of the things going on with medical interventions in the U.S., it's incredibly slow and hide-bound. | ||
I worked with one of the first companies that had a stick-on cardio monitor. | ||
I designed the whole infrastructure to get the signal off the body onto the cloud so we could analyze it. | ||
And the amount of money that that company had to raise just for compliance for this sort of thing was incredible. | ||
So there's all sorts of really brilliant doctors and naturopaths and other guys who have technologies. | ||
Some of them are anti-cancer, some of them are for obesity, some of them are for rapid healing. | ||
And in order for them to actually do it, if they stand up and say, I'm doing this, they'll lose their license almost immediately because it's an unapproved treatment. | ||
So we have this whole bureaucratic institution that forces people who are really good healers to at least publicly support things that don't work very well. | ||
And they do this, even though maybe at home they're doing something different because until you have these double-blind studies, et cetera, et cetera, it's just very slow. | ||
So what a lot of the new groundbreaking companies, including some of the ones that I advise, what they do is they go overseas. | ||
Because if you go, say, to Europe or better yet to Singapore, you can do amazing things to heal people that are not legal to do in the U.S. and might not be legal for 20 years, and it'll cost you a lot less money. | ||
Like what things do they have available? | ||
You can go over there and do some of the electrical medicine things like that. | ||
Electrical medicine? | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
I mean, my first biohacking conference earlier this year, we had guys running relatively heavy amounts of electrical current over the body in order to increase myelination of the nerves. | ||
And myelinated nerves carry electricity faster and they let you move faster. | ||
There's, oh, God. | ||
Wait a minute. | ||
You can turn people faster by electrocuting them. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
So pretty much. | ||
It's an insane. | ||
unidentified
|
In fact, we had Aubrey there, the CEO of Onit. | |
You should have seen the change in his punch, right? | ||
You made him punch harder? | ||
We're going to punch faster. | ||
You made him punch faster. | ||
Yeah, because he didn't just warm up? | ||
No, it wasn't that. | ||
Because what he was doing, and you can see it was really dramatic. | ||
In fact, I think that's in the video. | ||
I almost had the videos done for the conference, but I'll put those online. | ||
And what he was doing is he was punching really fast, but then he was pulling back slowly. | ||
So by running electricity and just coaching his form, but when you learn something with the electricity going over your nerves at 500 times a second, your mind thinks you did it 500 times. | ||
Do something 10,000 times to practice it, that kind of effect? | ||
Well, if your mind thinks you did it 10,000 times and you only did it for a little while, you get the practice effect. | ||
So I watched him before. | ||
It was like fast, slow. | ||
And when he was done with this stuff after like two days of this, he was like equally fast going on the jab and then pulling it back. | ||
It was remarkable. | ||
So he just pulled back quicker. | ||
He didn't punch quicker. | ||
I don't know if he punched faster or not. | ||
I don't think they measured that. | ||
But you could see the difference. | ||
So they're measuring the amount of time between throwing the punch and pulling the punch back? | ||
Yeah, because if you can throw three punches, because you're pulling backwards, he punches however many times in 20 seconds under this, and then now he's punching this many more times in 20 seconds. | ||
That seems like it would be something that an athlete should do right before they did an event. | ||
How long would it last? | ||
And is it legal? | ||
It's legal, and the effect, it's a nervous system effect. | ||
It's teaching the nervous system and the nerves in the body. | ||
It's forever, yeah. | ||
It's forever. | ||
It's re-training. | ||
So essentially, you could cut your amount of time that it takes to be proficient at something by a dramatic amount. | ||
The U.S. military is using this in the brain. | ||
They use this device, this little transcranial direct current stimulator thing, to train drone pilots in six weeks instead of three months. | ||
Drone piloting is the most boring job ever. | ||
You stare at a screen for 12 hours, and if you see something that's a target, which happens like once a day if you're lucky, you press a button and then someone dies. | ||
And you're in a trailer. | ||
Is that why they keep jagging innocent people? | ||
Is it because they're bored and they just pull the trigger for you? | ||
unidentified
|
I love training to take the soul away. | |
That's got to be one of the hardest jobs ever. | ||
You're killing people. | ||
You're looking at a little video screen from an airplane. | ||
I would not want that job to save my life. | ||
I agree. | ||
I got to respect that. | ||
That job shouldn't exist. | ||
I agree. | ||
It should be reserved for really evil Motherfuckers. | ||
I agree, but I got to respect the guys who are going out and doing that work because I sure as heck wouldn't do it. | ||
But I agree. | ||
That job shouldn't exist. | ||
It's a crazy business when 80% of the people that you kill, you didn't mean to kill. | ||
And you don't even know more than that. | ||
You don't even get to see them. | ||
I mean, the mistakes happen in all. | ||
They say they get 2% of the right people. | ||
I don't want that on my karma. | ||
So if you kill one person, they say 49 people that happened to be in the cafe or whatever happened to die also. | ||
And Obama and the military-industrial complex calls that a raving success. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I heard the new update, though, it only kills like 20% of the people, though. | ||
That makes me feel better. | ||
Thanks. | ||
It's pretty amazing how we freak out about 9-11 and don't think about what we've done as far as the drone attacks on innocent people. | ||
Or, well, I mean, you look at Boston and that's awful and horrible. | ||
But when I heard that there's like three people that died, I'm like, three fucking people. | ||
A lot of people lost their legs. | ||
Because the thing scattered out and blew people's legs apart. | ||
My point being that we do that in other places with innocent people every day. | ||
I wish we had one tenth of the ier that we had when that happened in Boston. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
It's just like the separation of us as humans that because it happened somewhere else, that all of a sudden we're not responsible or accountable in some way is really. | ||
It's also interesting how we choose to marginalize the numbers. | ||
You remember when the war first started? | ||
I don't know if you remember, but I remember the first deaths that were coming in. | ||
They were telling you about the deaths. | ||
And the reason why they were telling you about the deaths was because our last experience with war was like the craziest Mike Tyson first-round victory ever. | ||
When we fought Iraq, it was literally like we went over there and fucking Mike Tyson them. | ||
We just destroyed them. | ||
Their whole army was gone within a couple of weeks. | ||
And the only people that died, I think there was a couple that had died before the big accident where a Scud missile had hit a base and killed a bunch of people that were all in one area. | ||
And that was like the big, that was like 100%. | ||
And if a scud hit somebody, that was a complete accident. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
That was random. | ||
Yeah, I think it was, you know, but that was the big loss. | ||
And so I think people anticipated there was going to be the same sort of thing again. | ||
We'd go in there, a few people would die. | ||
Oh, I can't believe they died. | ||
But everybody was in such a 9-11 fervor. | ||
You know, there was everywhere you go, they had American flags were hanging on people's cars. | ||
But then after a while, they stopped telling you about those people. | ||
They just stopped. | ||
The numbers kept piling up, and they just stopped talking about it. | ||
It wasn't like a thing when they were going to tell you every day. | ||
Three Marines died in Afghanistan. | ||
Occasionally you'll see in a little sidebar, but you'll see a big one about some crazy bitch who stabbed her boyfriend. | ||
Or you see another one about some chick who drowned her kid or did this or left a baby in a car. | ||
And they'll just dwell and follow that person to hound him out. | ||
This Zimmerman, Trayvon Martin thing, the divisiveness between the two races and how people are so invested in one side or another being correct. | ||
Fascinating shit, but a massive distraction in terms of the overall population of the human race. | ||
If you look at what the fuck evil shit is going on right now, one questionable death does not merit, I mean, it merits people paying attention to it, but it doesn't merit any more than some people that died because of a drone attack that weren't guilty of anything but being poor and living in Pakistan. | ||
Those fucking people died too, man. | ||
And they have families and they're living. | ||
Right. | ||
And they don't even get, there's no talk about them at all. | ||
I mean, it occasionally, it's a number that someone will bring up, but no one's like, well, and if you do talk about it, you're labeled a conspiracy theorist or some psychopath. | ||
And it's like, how is me caring about human fucking life? | ||
What are you talking about? | ||
It's like the idea that being a liberal is somehow a bad word. | ||
It's like, it means free thinker. | ||
If you study etymology of fucking words, you dalt. | ||
We want to walk through the bad thing. | ||
And on the tip of all that, too, I want to give due credence and respect and thanks to all those people that are there that are put in an intolerable situation, making a decision I wouldn't want to have to make. | ||
And whether it's like my friend Brian Stan, Kicker, Tommy Truex, John Trejo, my cousin Spence Fletcher, all you guys, everybody that's gone and served, thank you so much. | ||
And I'm just glad I've never been in that position and I respect your decision to be on the front lines there because I know that every guy that I know that ever signed up has done so with America and those kinds of ideals of what we've been built on in America in their hearts. | ||
Well, that's the whole classic story that's been provided. | ||
The Pat Tillman story. | ||
When Pat Tillman went over there right after 9-11. | ||
Zach, Pat Tillman was a huge NFL star. | ||
Handsome motherfucker. | ||
Looks like a Barbie doll, or Ken, rather. | ||
Sorry. | ||
And I want to thank Bradley Manning, the Bradley Mannings that are out there. | ||
God damn, that's a fucking American hero. | ||
Yeah, there's a real problem with that, huh? | ||
There's a real problem with that. | ||
And you take that kid and lock him in solitary confinement, a cold room with no clothes for three years. | ||
Don't let him talk to anybody. | ||
Yeah, anybody that doesn't mention his name as a hero on Memorial Day. | ||
Well, not only that, like, think of the horrible things that people have done in this country. | ||
the horrible things that Dick Cheney probably did. | ||
They put this kid and they locked him in solitary fucking confinement for years for releasing information about something that was clearly wrong that he felt he needed to do. | ||
And if you look at what actually got exposed, well, the things that got exposed, first of all, the names were names that were already released. | ||
That was the only names that they released. | ||
But then the information itself that got exposed is something that people really needed to deal with. | ||
They really needed to deal with the attitudes that those helicopter fighter pilots had about killing those kids that were in, like when they found out there were kids in the van, they're like, well, they shouldn't have brought their kids. | ||
Whoa, man. | ||
That's not what we think of when we think of America. | ||
That shit needs to be exposed. | ||
And if you were a true patriot, you would be happy that that was exposed. | ||
And if you felt like that guy committed a crime, maybe he needs to be prosecuted for some sort of a crime. | ||
But it's not what you're doing to him. | ||
It's not locking him naked for three fucking years without getting to talk to people. | ||
You tell me that's worse than what Bernie Madoff did? | ||
How come Bernie Madoff gets clothes and food and gets to a lawyer? | ||
How about charged? | ||
Well, due to the Patriot Act and due to the NDAA, they can infinitely detain you. | ||
They can detain you indefinitely. | ||
They can do whatever they want. | ||
They don't have to even tell your family. | ||
You're about the presidential execution orders now? | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
Yeah, that's pretty scary stuff. | ||
Well, that's the other thing with drones. | ||
They've killed four people, four Americans. | ||
It's been a long time. | ||
they greenlit those guys. | ||
Like Obama's kill list came out through the New York Times, and there's all these names on there, and they're like, oh, yeah, these two guys that happened to die, they're American citizens. | ||
They're abroad, though. | ||
And we murdered them. | ||
We assassinated them. | ||
However, and we didn't give them due process at all, but we didn't need to because they're off the borders. | ||
Well, then they start doing that in the United States. | ||
You look at that fucking crazy cop that they shot like four other people that they didn't mean to before they burned him alive in the cabin. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
It's like, that seems odd. | ||
There's obviously a kill order on that guy. | ||
They shot people that were delivering newspapers. | ||
It looks crazy. | ||
Or even the right cooler call. | ||
He looks like LL Cool J, for fuck's sake, and they shoot some surfer guy and then a Japanese lady. | ||
It's like, that seems odd. | ||
They're just, they're very hot about getting this guy. | ||
I get it. | ||
I have a buddy who has friends in the intelligence business, and he's like, you know, it was really a wake-up call for a lot of people. | ||
Because they're like, that's a terrible thing that happened because they had those cops shitting themselves. | ||
And it really alerted people to the fact that, hey, it wouldn't be too hard to make a lot of fucking noise. | ||
If one guy could do something like that, one crazy Christopher Dormer military-trained former police officer who's giant can do something like that. | ||
What could a team of 10 guys from another country do? | ||
And that are well trained to work in unison. | ||
Goddamn Chuck Norris movies would have done. | ||
God damn it. | ||
You better get those denim stretch jeans on and get working. | ||
But that's the problem, too, with Boston is in that way, in the same way that people are like, he didn't get, and I don't want to argue about whether you need your Miranda rights written and they're in special circumstances, whatever, go fuck yourself. | ||
But the fucking fact is, is that if you're not worried that there's tanks in the street and that there's people that are going with M4s door to door with flat jackets on that can pull you out and need you to comply right now and they can do illegal search and seizure and all that happened because this act happened and that's not terrifying to you, then you're no fucking American. | ||
What were the tanks doing there again? | ||
How did they get them? | ||
Oh, it's so crazy. | ||
It's all a mistake. | ||
And the big issue clearly is why are people so angry and broken that they're willing to do horrific things? | ||
Not the big issue. | ||
It's not like give these people that are quote unquote the government ultimate control of your life to protect you from things like that happening. | ||
That's not the answer. | ||
The answer is figuring out what is wrong with the mental health of human beings that allows a certain percentage of them to go postal. | ||
Well, how do you make people more resilient is the core? | ||
You have to make them accountability. | ||
You have to make them accountability. | ||
What do you mean by more resilient? | ||
I don't even think it's an accountability thing. | ||
If your nervous system does stupid shit before you had a chance to notice it happening, which is the reason a lot of these people do stuff, it's happening on automated pilots. | ||
So you mean they develop their whole life doing a bunch of stupid shit and it becomes like automated. | ||
They go to stupid shit first. | ||
They do self-destructive things first because it's programmed in their brain. | ||
It's programmed in before they can think about it. | ||
So you can hold someone accountable for what their nervous system did when they weren't looking, which is what happens for a lot of these people. | ||
So when you grow up in a shit environment like that, by the time you get to a certain age, in a lot of respects, you're programmed in a terrible way, and it's an incredibly difficult thing to reprogram. | ||
How do you, and it's actually not that hard. | ||
That's why I'm into these things like neurofeedback and hooking computers up to your head and showing your brain where it's not behaving well. | ||
Your brain, as an organ, self-optimizes. | ||
Okay, how does that help you if you're a kid and you're living in the hood and your mentality is all fucked up because you grow up in a really violent environment? | ||
Here's how. | ||
In a study, this was with a group called Brain State. | ||
There's two states in the U.S. that don't have basically publicly owned or say privately owned prisons. | ||
So you have these publicly traded prison companies that run things. | ||
So the two states where they don't have this, these guys went in and they did a test. | ||
And they said, give us 10 hours of neurofeedback on people and let's see what happens. | ||
90% reduction in recidivism. | ||
So they're taking people who are not only in prison, but they're trained in prison to be criminals. | ||
Most criminals go back to prison. | ||
10 hours of being hooked up to a machine, letting their brains fix themselves without even having to do any real conscious effort there changes everything. | ||
I met another girl from an incredibly wrecked family. | ||
Like her whole, she was a First Nations person in Canada. | ||
This is like the local equivalent of American Indians. | ||
Alcoholics in the family, like, you know, relatives with horrible, violent deaths in front of her, like all the things that fuck you up. | ||
One neurofeedback session for seven days, she becomes valedictorian at her school, stops drinking, and completely cleans herself up. | ||
So you can get in at the nervous system level, underneath the conscious thing, and you can undo an enormous amount of damage, and you can build people that are resilient. | ||
So even when bad stuff happens, they don't turn into murdering psychos. | ||
We've got to start doing this stuff for people because we're putting stresses on people that they were never, ever meant to take. | ||
My point is, though, is that sociologically, the reason I say accountability is because it's like I want the TSA to take care of me if I'm on a plane. | ||
Therefore, I don't have to stand up if somebody's coming with a razor blade down the aisleway. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
Oh, that kind of self-awareness. | ||
I need the police to take care of me. | ||
And it's like the more government interest has in us in that way, the more we're like, well, that's somebody else's problem. | ||
And so we never dust off and get up and stand up for anybody, let alone each other or ourselves. | ||
Well, accountability has to come from the state. | ||
That's not from an institution. | ||
I hear it. | ||
Like having someone else hold you accountable is a worst move. | ||
No, no, right, right, right, right, right. | ||
But I mean, it's like, there's, I've got to take care of me, and I've got to take care of my. | ||
It's like my friend, a dear friend that I looked up to, and he got schizophrenia later in life. | ||
And his mom is a woman that helped raise me. | ||
And I've been wanting to go and just thank her and kind of revere her for me being the man I am and her influence in my life. | ||
And she's dying of cancer. | ||
And she's in like a third stage chemotherapy. | ||
And then two weeks ago, on top of all that, this guy that I'd always looked up to and kind of revered, who's got mental problems, man, he lit himself on fire and burned off 85% of his skin, stayed alive for three days afterwards before they pulled the plug. | ||
And with all that, it's like you look at, you know, who are we taking care of now? | ||
He's got four kids, you know, and like, I feel, I don't, I know his oldest boy, but like I feel tremendous responsibility to that community as somebody that I've loved and grown up with. | ||
And so giving to a fund for them, and I'll give every bit I can, whenever I can, but it's like, where do I have responsibility for my community instead of going, where's my government to take care of him? | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
It's like all those kinds of things. | ||
It's like we need to take care of each other in that way. | ||
And that's what I mean, I guess, when I say a heightened responsibility for my community. | ||
You're accountable for what happens around you instead of some random entity out there that's going to help me accountable. | ||
You're certainly accountable for yourself. | ||
The problem is if you grow up in that terrible environment with a bunch of really negative influences and you're programmed in a horrible way, it's super hard to fucking snap out of that. | ||
It's super hard to get your momentum. | ||
It's nearly impossible to do it. | ||
And it's easy to do this guy. | ||
Go, whatever, fucking let the system take me. | ||
And you surround yourself with a bunch of other losers and I'll be losing it. | ||
I'll rob this one last bank and we'll see. | ||
And either they'll get me or I'll be okay or whatever the thing is, you know. | ||
I mean, you get helpless. | ||
It's like my mom would always talk about, oh, the Islamic crazy people, they're going to fucking run. | ||
Anybody that'll strap a bomb to themselves, I'm like, I just see that as a frustrated dude. | ||
Like, that's not insanity. | ||
I mean, that's a sociologically induced insanity then. | ||
That's somebody that feels so powerless that they'll do that. | ||
Most of those guys with bombs also, like, their wife has a gun to their head. | ||
It's a bit of a problem there, too. | ||
It's a hard knock life. | ||
How was Mike Tyson? | ||
You got to hang out with Mike Tyson. | ||
Did you talk to him for a bit or anything? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah, it was pretty badass. | ||
Because he's been doing comedy at the comedy center. | ||
unidentified
|
No way. | |
He's amazing. | ||
He's doing stand-up? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Like the last two nights or something? | ||
That's interesting. | ||
Well, he's, you know, he's going tonight. | ||
He's got his show. | ||
He does his show. | ||
He's got a show where he does a story and talks about his whole life. | ||
unidentified
|
Damn. | |
Apparently, it's fucking amazing. | ||
Dude, I got to meet Sugar Ray Leonard, and he was amazing to talk to. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Same kind of shit. | ||
That kind of fame as an athlete, as a singular athlete, like you're not a ball player or something. | ||
But guys like that, those are uncommon dudes. | ||
Like that's a whole, that's a life of rock star. | ||
Like I'm buying out the top two floors of the MGM Grand and people I don't even know are staying. | ||
Like that's those are $100 million fights, shit like that. | ||
That's crazy. | ||
So let me bring up some coffee stuff because people on my message board. | ||
One of them says both OA studies found an incidence rate of approximately 50% for the OA. | ||
Please stop that. | ||
For the incident, for the approximately 50% for the OA producing mold at wildly different concentrations, minimum of O2 ppb in one study and a maximum of 7.8 ppb in another. | ||
This tells me anything, if this tells me anything at all, it's that you should probably vary your source if you want to minimize your risk. | ||
Neither the FDA or the EFSA actually has a legal limit for OA, but the EFSA, whatever the fuck these things are, suggests a limit of 8, it looks like a U, 8 UG, KG, which means that even the worst samples are below the very conservative legal limit. | ||
So you would have to watch it. | ||
One study actually tested the incidence of OA in brewed coffee, not just the beans, and found a maximum of 7.8 ppb in the brew. | ||
That's 7.8 UG per one kilogram for ground coffee based on the worst contamination of brewed coffee, 7.8. | ||
Doing the math, you'd have to consume the brew from 150 grams of ground coffee per day. | ||
That's about a half of a standard size tin of coffee per day. | ||
It says if you drink that much, same on you. | ||
And the third study looked at aflatoxin, not orcratoxin, is that what I said? | ||
Ocratoxin. | ||
Okratoxin, which actually is regulated by the FDA and has a maximum of 20 ppb. | ||
This study also showed that approximately 50% incident rate after roasting, with the highest concentration of AT being 16 kg for decaf, less with caffeine. | ||
So that means with any random cup of coffee, you have up to a 50% chance of consuming an amount of AT that's still well below the FDA limit. | ||
And that's nearly zero risk. | ||
It says none of the studies test the rate of the mold growth on beans while storage under various conditions, temperature, humidity, et cetera. | ||
So we can't comment on what happens in storage. | ||
I guess if you really want to be on the safe side, only buy as much coffee as you think you can use in a week or two. | ||
Conclusion, it says don't believe, this is just what it says. | ||
Don't believe everything that people tell you, especially people with something to sell unless you're drinking gallons of coffee a day, gallons of coffee a day. | ||
Brewed coffee is perfectly safe. | ||
So the do I sell something? | ||
Yeah, I sell something. | ||
That's not even important. | ||
I get tired of people saying that. | ||
Yeah, I sell stuff. | ||
Can I say something? | ||
Let me put you answer on the science of it is that all I know is like from anything, whether it's a paleo diet, a primal diet, a zone diet, or whatever, is only because I've read that. | ||
And if I've only read it, all I have is talking points. | ||
But I've been my own experiment with all these things. | ||
And what I do notice, and one of the most telling things when I got Bulletproof Coffee, is that when you asked me, do you sometimes feel, or you didn't ask me? | ||
Okay, hold on, stop, stop, stop. | ||
No disrespect, bro. | ||
But I just put out some numbers and gave it to him. | ||
I want them while they're fresh in his mind. | ||
You've got to respond to that. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
That's totally fine. | ||
I mean, you were talking about it from an anecdotal standpoint, which is, I know it helped you, and I enjoy bulletproof coffee, but we got to answer this. | ||
So what he's talking about during stored storage of coffee, he was a little confused because it's storage of green coffee where problems might happen. | ||
And controlled humidity levels in green coffee matter enormously. | ||
That's why, for instance, Indonesian coffee, which tastes really good, has problems because it's stored with higher humidity. | ||
They even age it there. | ||
So stuff does happen in green coffee. | ||
But what's happening is actually happening during the process that turns it into green coffee. | ||
There's another set of toxins that come during the transport of coffee, which is why how the coffee is bagged on the big container ships actually affects what comes out of the roaster at the other end. | ||
Now, this guy is relying on the FDA to tell him the safe amount of aflatoxin to take. | ||
Now, that's a decision he may choose to make. | ||
Frankly, I don't really trust the FDA to keep my best interests at heart. | ||
The FDA is also basically judging economics and safety. | ||
This is the same FDA that tells you that aspartame is perfectly safe and healthy for you, which is complete bullshit. | ||
So, okay, now the point is, somehow it's binary. | ||
If you have this level, it's unsafe. | ||
If you have this level, it's perfectly safe. | ||
That is not how biology works. | ||
So, if your coffee has a level down here versus a level down here, what's the difference? | ||
The difference is human performance and how you feel. | ||
And how do I measure that? | ||
Well, we looked at a computerized cognitive battery and had people do a washout. | ||
And we had 54 people in this study, and they tried my coffee, which has zero detectable mycotoxins, and other coffee, which has under the safe limit. | ||
And okay, what happened? | ||
Well, we had better cognitive performance when they had coffee that had fewer toxins in it. | ||
The idea that it's somehow safe to have this level, but not this level is not correct. | ||
Having a background. | ||
So, but this is just you stating by your test that it's not correct, because it is correct that some substances, you can take a little bit of it and be fine and take a large dose of it and be dead. | ||
That's salt. | ||
Yeah, salt, water. | ||
When you eat a pound of salt and you're a dead man, right? | ||
And salt's important. | ||
Right. | ||
So the question is, what's the effect of aflatoxin and ocrotoxin on humans? | ||
I'm sorry to interrupt you, but I just want to be clear. | ||
So what you're saying is that even a small amount, although your body may be able to handle it, your body's processing it, it still impedes performance. | ||
And that's what the FDA is not addressing. | ||
They don't look at performance at all. | ||
Basically, is it going to kill you above a certain risk level that they deem tolerable? | ||
So they get it to a certain point. | ||
They say, okay, other than this, you might be getting poisoned. | ||
But if you just drink really shitty coffee and don't drink half a tin of it in a day, you're going to be okay. | ||
And you're saying that's not true. | ||
It's not true. | ||
What you're going to feel is you're going to feel anxiety. | ||
And I get lots of people who just gave up coffee like I did because they felt crappy when they drink it, who can drink perfectly clean coffee because different people have different sensitivities. | ||
And the other thing that this guy hasn't talked about with his numbers, and this is well established in toxicology, is that there's a synergism between mycotoxins. | ||
So if you're getting X amount of aflatoxin, X amount of ocrotoxin, X amount of xeralinone all together, that they have a synergistic effect greater than the level of each one of them. | ||
So I test for all those in my beans, and there's zero detectable any of them. | ||
And that's because the process that I engineered to create the beans themselves doesn't allow for their formation. | ||
All the places where they form. | ||
All these other companies that are selling mycotoxin, like I saw one website that actually praised your idea for bulletproof coffee, which is your own invention based on, what is it, tea that you drank with butter? | ||
Tibetan yak butter tea. | ||
But adding the upgraded MCT to it makes a huge difference. | ||
And that's about mitochondrial function. | ||
There really is a difference in the way it makes you feel. | ||
And you've even said that there's other single source coffee that you can get that's mycotoxin for you. | ||
At least it's pretty clean. | ||
Go get it. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Go get it if you think that bulletproof coffee is expensive. | ||
So does that explain why bulletproof coffee is expensive? | ||
It's like it's a difficult process. | ||
It's your own process. | ||
If you buy the five-pound bag, it's the same price as Starbucks coffee. | ||
It's $15 a pound. | ||
It's not more expensive. | ||
I don't understand where this is coming from. | ||
If you're buying the small bags, there's shipping involved. | ||
And I don't know what to do to make shipping lower, but I lose money on shipping on that stuff. | ||
I'm not gouging people on the coffee. | ||
In fact, it's very fairly priced given this. | ||
But that doesn't matter. | ||
This is the internet. | ||
No matter what. | ||
If the internet, if you're making money, you're ripping somebody else. | ||
It has to be that. | ||
That's why I have a day job. | ||
But you've thought about abandoning it and going full bulletproof life. | ||
To be perfectly honest, I just switched over to being a contractor in my day job, literally like last week. | ||
Oh, so you might eventually go 100%. | ||
I'm sure hoping to. | ||
There's a quarter million words I wrote that are free online. | ||
Like, I'm doing this to make money now. | ||
That's really important. | ||
People need to really realize that. | ||
And also, there's a lot of time involved in pursuing this much information. | ||
People, for whatever reason, were just going to be an expert on everything. | ||
That's like what's been said in my... | ||
But what it is, is you're an expert on all these things that you've spent time researching and you've accumulated a bunch of information on. | ||
And look, there's something important about that. | ||
And people need to get that in your head. | ||
You're not going to do that. | ||
You're not going to do that. | ||
But he's going to do that. | ||
And that is important. | ||
But even if you're making a dollar off it, people just want to think that somehow or another you're a fucking con artist. | ||
It's really interesting because bottom line is if you want to drink some coffee, that idea is the best idea. | ||
The bulletproof coffee idea is the best idea. | ||
And it tastes like when you have the grass head butter in it and you put a little Stevie in it, take term you onto a little Stevie adash. | ||
Stevie's good. | ||
It's fucking delicious. | ||
And it will give you a different kind of energy over a long period of time. | ||
Not only if you'd like to have coffee, but if you'd like to operate at a higher level. | ||
It's like even if you don't, if vegetarianism made me feel awesome and great, I would be a vegetarian too. | ||
I would do whatever it was. | ||
My bowls of gravel. | ||
Aubrey's woman said it's like Adderall. | ||
She's like, this shit is like Adderall. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But what is the downside? | ||
Is there any downside for drinking this stuff? | ||
I mean, and getting all jacked up? | ||
I mean, doesn't have play havoc on your adrenals? | ||
That's a really good question. | ||
Let's talk about adrenal function and coffee. | ||
That's a lot. | ||
Yeah. | ||
All right. | ||
Caffeine depletes magnesium to a small degree. | ||
Not a terrible one, but you should be supplementing magnesium anyway. | ||
My top two supplement recommendations are vitamin D and magnesium. | ||
That's, by the way, I'm going to interrupt, but that's one of the reasons why you should use the tank. | ||
The isolation tank is one of the best ways that your body gets magnesium, and it gets absorbed through the dermis, bitch. | ||
Yeah, that's Epsom salt bass. | ||
I take in just lukewarm, like not warm so it dehydrates, but lukewarm so it soaks into me. | ||
That's great for the muscles. | ||
Add some magnesium chloride, not just magnesium sulfate to that, and you'll get even more benefits. | ||
What am I getting in the ZMA? | ||
unidentified
|
Zinc. | |
And is that enough? | ||
It's zinc aspartate. | ||
Probably not. | ||
Oral magnesium will get you to a certain point, but transdermal is amazing. | ||
So what should I throw in there? | ||
What should I throw in there? | ||
So right now you have sulfate, magnesium sulfate. | ||
You want to put magnesium chloride, which is actually like the salt of magnesium, because that absorbs through the skin differently. | ||
You see that magnesium oil they market like at health food stores? | ||
That's just super saturated magnesium chloride. | ||
So add some of that. | ||
But let's go back to adrenals. | ||
I'll hook you up with that magnesium chloride, just the chemical stuff. | ||
You can buy pounds of the stuff and just put some of that in there too. | ||
So when you're getting your magnesium, you'll get sulfate and chloride and both channels will get in. | ||
So with adrenals, I know that mycotoxins increase cortisol levels. | ||
They are a poison. | ||
When you are poisoned, your stress levels go up, which stresses your adrenal glands. | ||
This is like pretty basic stuff. | ||
So maybe higher doses of mycotoxins create more adrenal stress, lower doses create less. | ||
So having coffee without toxins in it, if you have adrenal problems, seems to be okay. | ||
I have lots and lots of people on the forums who are in up to stage three adrenal fatigue, who have one cup of upgraded beans, you know, the mycotoxin-free coffee, and they do very well. | ||
They recover. | ||
I've been in stage three adrenal fatigue multiple times, and I still use a cup of coffee. | ||
I've tried going without coffee, I've tried going with it. | ||
And the bottom line is: if you're doing it responsibly, I think doing it with the fat, which actually lowers your stress level when your body has adequate food and adequate nutrition like that, I think is at least a wash, and it's probably not harmful. | ||
But if you have adrenal fatigue, like real, like I'm bedridden sort of stuff, you probably ought not to be using anything with caffeine. | ||
The funny thing you say is like maybe the mycotoxins are causing this adrenal response. | ||
Like that needs to be sort of researched, right? | ||
I would love. | ||
Well, I would love more research out there. | ||
And we know that like aflatoxin and ocrotoxin, if they're injected or if you feed them to an animal, that they will raise cortisol. | ||
That's very well understood. | ||
What would be a way that you could do a test on coffee to find out with X amount of people, what sort of a control would you need to do a test on people and ensure that they get a certain amount of mycotoxins in their coffee and then ensure that they get none? | ||
It seems like that can be done. | ||
You could certainly ensure it. | ||
I'd be actually really interested in that. | ||
I would contribute coffee to a study like that, although I don't know where to get aflatoxin guaranteed certified level coffee. | ||
One of the problems that we have with coffee is if you buy a container load of coffee, there can be a hot spot. | ||
The back of the container had a leak, right? | ||
So now you get like this much of the container has mycotoxins in it and the rest doesn't. | ||
And this is one of the reasons that the small style roasting that I'm doing works. | ||
If you go up to like, you know, the massive coffee conglomerate level where you're mixing like a whole bunch of container loads together and you're homogenizing it, you're getting the average level down, but you're guaranteeing the presence of toxins. | ||
I want zero toxins, not just a little bit. | ||
Essentially, what's going on is these toxins are not really being considered as toxins because no one's dying. | ||
And even though they suck for your health and they make you feel like shit, no one's paying attention to it and the study doesn't address it. | ||
And the way they're looking at as far as regulation is a profit versus negative detriment to the human health, which seems to be very low. | ||
Whereas although it makes you feel kind of cranky, it's not really detrimental to your health. | ||
Do a research on mycotoxins and arterial lesions. | ||
Do a search on mycotoxins and fertility. | ||
There's a whole chapter in this book on what mycotoxins do to animals. | ||
We actually test animal feed. | ||
When animals are pregnant, they buy special food without mycotoxins in it because when they feed mycotoxin grain and hay and alfalfa to animals, they spontaneously lose their pregnancies and they can't get pregnant. | ||
Like we know what these do to animals, but for those same things, we don't even have levels set for humans for some humans. | ||
Well, this is what I think we really need to do to continue this conversation in sort of an ethical way. | ||
Because I think we're bringing up a lot of things that we can't really completely substantiate. | ||
Like the mycotoxin levels in different coffees like Starbucks and Pete's and whatever shit at the mall and the gas station. | ||
I feel like there needs to be some sort of study done or some test done on a bunch of different ones. | ||
Just randomly pull them out of Starbucks and test them. | ||
How difficult would that be? | ||
And could you do that? | ||
And why haven't you done it yet? | ||
Well, I mean, I would, in order to do that, I mean, this testing is not cheap. | ||
It's not cheap. | ||
How much would it cost? | ||
To do that, what do you want, like a thousand samples? | ||
unidentified
|
How many samples would we need, Tate? | |
I don't know, but I'll be the guinea pig. | ||
I'll do whatever. | ||
You got coffee, I'm in. | ||
And are we going to have butter in this coffee or what? | ||
I would say 50 samples, one in each state. | ||
Yeah, that's a good call. | ||
That's a good call. | ||
Yeah, but you don't want to go to Hawaii, dude, or Hawaii. | ||
That's a lot of work. | ||
Oh, mine is. | ||
I'll do the Hawaii test. | ||
Lower 48. | ||
And here's the question. | ||
I mean, are you going to test like Folgers? | ||
Are you going to test Starbucks? | ||
I drink both of them. | ||
I think you'd want to test Dunkin' Donuts. | ||
You'd want to test it. | ||
You should do 10 to 25, right? | ||
Well, I think we would get a good sample is if you randomly tested 50 places in this country, just went into a place and bought a coffee, and then wrote the day, the time, where it came from, whether it was coffee bean, whether it was Pete's, whatever it is, mom and pop coffee shop. | ||
And let's find out. | ||
I mean, that's obviously not good enough scientifically to prove across the board. | ||
It's a small sample. | ||
But it's a sample enough to give people some information. | ||
unidentified
|
It's a sample enough to... | |
$100,000? | ||
I'm not afraid of it. | ||
I feel like we could do a Kickstarter that could put that shit out of the way. | ||
I say we could just go to Starbucks and ask them, like, hey, do you want to get this out of the water, out of the way? | ||
I don't think they know. | ||
I think their business is suffering. | ||
I don't think that they want to do that. | ||
Yeah, but the people that are working as managers, do you think they know? | ||
Joe, I've talked to some of the most prestigious coffee scientists in the world working for five-plus billion dollar companies about this problem. | ||
They damn well know about this. | ||
The baristas? | ||
You think baristas? | ||
They just don't know about this. | ||
Nobody working in a store is a business. | ||
What about a manager that used to be a barista? | ||
Do they fill them in? | ||
Is it like a secret? | ||
Not at all. | ||
They're filling poison. | ||
There's a company. | ||
If you want to look crazy, though, go in there and ask, hey, do you have single origin coffee at a Starbucks? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Single aura. | ||
No, so what's going on here? | ||
This is a back-end industrial supply issue with coffee. | ||
So there's one of the very large coffee conglomerates has a giant research facility with 70 scientists working on this now. | ||
And in Europe, they've had to change the way they buy green coffee because now they make the people who buy the green coffee from the coffee growers. | ||
So there's a growing production process, there's a coffee broker, and the coffee broker buys it. | ||
But if they don't arrange for proper transportation, the coffee can actually develop mycotoxins in transportation. | ||
So what's happening now is that the roasters in the supply chain there are actually forcing the brokers, who never had to be responsible for this before. | ||
In Europe, they're forcing the brokers to take on that risk. | ||
And it's changing a lot of the whole part of coffee over there. | ||
But we haven't had that happen here. | ||
On top of that, according to the last research I've seen, Starbucks has $816 million worth of coffee in storage that they're working on. | ||
So now if we're going to do a sample of $816 million worth of coffee just for Starbucks, and I'm not picking on Starbucks, there's lots of giant coffee companies who buy all kinds of coffee. | ||
Some is moldy, some is not moldy. | ||
They mix it all together. | ||
So like, which samples are we going to get? | ||
And if we ask them for samples, I wonder if we'll get the freshest, nicest stuff or not. | ||
Like, who knows? | ||
So if it sits around, it's more likely to have mycotoxins? | ||
If it sits around as green coffee that is not in a temperature-controlled environment. | ||
Yeah, definitely. | ||
Humidity and temperature matter when you're storing coffee. | ||
So if it's, and depending also, like, if it's African natural coffee, that stuff always has mold in it just because of the way it's processed. | ||
So, I mean, well, okay, I don't even want to say it's unlikely or likely that they're going to have African coffee. | ||
I don't know what Starbucks is about. | ||
African coffee for sure. | ||
Yeah, they do. | ||
I've seen it a bunch of times. | ||
But that's like the stuff they're advertising as like you know, special Zimbabwe, you know, it's bad for you. | ||
You know, there's a figure. | ||
Some in Africa is bad for you. | ||
Some Ethiopian coffee. | ||
Tell your parents. | ||
Some is super clean, but a lot isn't. | ||
So, but here's the deal. | ||
Yeah, you can get a clean cup of coffee at a high-end coffee house with single origin following the instructions on my website. | ||
I don't make a nickel from that. | ||
My dream is to be able to go to any coffee place on the planet, walk in the door and say, I want a cup of coffee that makes me feel good. | ||
And it doesn't happen along those lines. | ||
Like, I'm working on opening bulletproof coffee shops. | ||
That'd be great. | ||
Like, it's happening. | ||
It'll happen, like, probably this year. | ||
I'm bringing the team together. | ||
We're raising funding for this. | ||
Yeah. | ||
The bulletproof team? | ||
Is it called the bulletproof team? | ||
No, it's called the Bulletproof Bobby. | ||
It's Bulletproof Tim. | ||
We're going to call it the Rogan team. | ||
Where are you going to start? | ||
Where's the first place? | ||
San Francisco. | ||
We're going to put three coffee shops in San Francisco. | ||
Wow. | ||
Nice. | ||
And I'm doing this not to make a million dollars because trust me, people, if you want to make a million dollars, opening retail establishments sucks. | ||
I don't even know how to do this. | ||
I had to bring people in who could tell me how to do this stuff, and I haven't raised a nickel yet, but it'll happen. | ||
And it's just hard. | ||
Every paper cup does something to the margins, and it's actually something I have no experience in. | ||
But I'm doing it because I think that you should be able to buy bulletproof coffee and feel awesome. | ||
I want to give you a little bit of vindication because someone else on the board, a dude named Aquib, found some studies that found 52% to 91% of green coffee beans are contaminated with mycotoxins. | ||
And this is from NCBI. | ||
What is that? | ||
unidentified
|
I know that study, National Coffee Brewers Board something. | |
Is that what it is? | ||
I forget what it is. | ||
But there are studies that show 92%. | ||
It's a government study. | ||
It's by NIH.gov. | ||
Oh, there we go. | ||
That's not the one that's going to be. | ||
But I have like 10 studies like that on the site. | ||
And depending on where the coffee comes from, what year it is, whether there was a drought and all that, it affects it. | ||
The National Center for Bio Information. | ||
Biotechnology Information. | ||
Okay. | ||
Advances science and health by providing access to biomedical and genomic information. | ||
Sorry. | ||
So here's the thing. | ||
There are plenty of studies. | ||
There are lots of studies out there that say there are some. | ||
There are those things that guy cited that say that, you know, oh, it's all BS. | ||
You know, I wish it was all BS. | ||
I really do. | ||
This is the biggest one they found. | ||
60 samples in Brazil, 91% contaminated with molds. | ||
Wow. | ||
That's kind of scary because if that coffee is mixed in with your other coffee, what are you getting? | ||
And you could make the argument you're getting a safe level. | ||
You know what? | ||
Screw the safe level. | ||
I'm not interested in a safe level. | ||
I want an optimal level. | ||
I'm not mediocre. | ||
I would really like to be able to prove this. | ||
I would really like if there was a way that we could absolutely prove that these mycotoxins have some sort of a detrimental effect. | ||
It makes sense to me. | ||
I believe that I know from trying your coffee, I have no adverse effects. | ||
And I have had headaches from coffee before or weird feelings afterwards. | ||
I feel like shit. | ||
And I've always wondered what that was. | ||
And I think a lot of people may have those sort of same shitty feelings after a cup of coffee, and they just accept it. | ||
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
Right. | ||
I'm going to go to the corner. | ||
There's so many different things. | ||
Are you going to talk to Obama about that? | ||
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
President of Starbucks. | ||
I think he would be open to having a public conversation about this. | ||
You know, that would be fascinating. | ||
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
I think he would. | ||
Starbucks is a pretty good company. | ||
Like, good people company. | ||
I have a huge respect for Howard Schultz, and I have a huge respect for him. | ||
How dare you know his name? | ||
Well, I know that someone told him about MTT oil last week. | ||
Oh, told him about it? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
In what way? | ||
Well, some of the people that I'm working with at my coffee shops are original gangster Starbucks people. | ||
Oh, original gangster. | ||
So they learned how to brew with him, and then they're like, you know what, this is not good enough. | ||
All the coffee has burned. | ||
Starbucks has been around since like the 80s, right? | ||
So they had their career and they're done, but they're looking to do something new and interesting. | ||
I'll tell you what, even if it's bad for you, it's fucking delicious. | ||
I can't argue. | ||
I don't think it's bad for you. | ||
Tate had one more question that we should address before we wrap this bitch up, and that was you had a question about cholesterol. | ||
And I think that's important. | ||
We never really got to the bottom of that. | ||
What's the issue, and what should we worry about? | ||
How dare you put that down? | ||
It's going to get us in trouble. | ||
That's going to get us in trouble. | ||
That would be a way better logo than the real one. | ||
Yeah, fuck yeah. | ||
Cholesterol. | ||
All right. | ||
Cholesterol, if you don't have oxidized cholesterol and you don't have inflammation in your body, having cholesterol is not a risk factor the way we've been taught it is. | ||
Even having LDL cholesterol isn't. | ||
Higher levels of LDL let you build muscle. | ||
Like, that's just sort of not a lot. | ||
I haven't worked out in three years. | ||
Wow. | ||
40 minutes a month. | ||
Is that 40 minutes a month? | ||
Here's another thing. | ||
People who have high levels of unoxidized cholesterol, when they're exposed to poisons, they live a lot longer because your body uses cholesterol to escort toxins out of the body through the biliary system in the liver. | ||
So why have we been told that cholesterol is bad for you? | ||
Is it cholesterol on a diet with other things? | ||
Cholesterol was one of the first things we could measure in blood. | ||
So we've been focusing a lot of research on it since about, what, the 30s? | ||
But the Gary Tobbs type of people, as well as a huge body of research in the last couple of years, have come out really seriously questioning this. | ||
If you have adequate amounts of high-density cholesterol, the HDL, which you do if you eat this kind of bulletproof diet stuff, oh, sorry, I don't know what else to call it. | ||
That's okay. | ||
I was giving you our time. | ||
I'll go to that slide. | ||
So, God, I'm going to name my book that I'll have to change it. | ||
Anyway, so there's that. | ||
What you'll end up doing, by the way, your cholesterol is around 300 on this? | ||
Mine's about 247. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
And my LPPLA2, which is the one I'd worry about the most, is very low, and I don't have that number memorized. | ||
LPPLA2 is a measure of protein damage inside your arteries. | ||
If you don't have high LPPLA2, if your homocysteine is low, which is a marker of inflammation. | ||
Of course it is. | ||
It takes six weeks on this diet for people to just crater it out. | ||
Right? | ||
And then your C-reactive protein and homocysteine are the other big markers of inflammation. | ||
So you get those guys where they should be. | ||
And having cholesterol that isn't oxidized is actually good for you. | ||
If you're taking your eggs and you're making like well-cooked omelets out of them and you're cooking the yolks to death, you're oxidizing that cholesterol And that's inflammatory. | ||
At the end of the day, or you should be eating raw eggs? | ||
Raw egg yolks? | ||
Absolutely. | ||
Toss them in your smoothie. | ||
They're amazing. | ||
It makes it taste like ice cream. | ||
Do you not have to worry about salmonella? | ||
Wash the outside of the egg. | ||
One in 45,000 eggs has salmonella on it. | ||
And it's on the outside of the egg? | ||
It's on the outside of the egg. | ||
So when you crack it open, that's when you get it in the actual egg itself. | ||
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
So it's a dirty egg. | ||
And that's something that people don't ever do. | ||
They never wash the outside of their egg. | ||
Well, they come washed in the U.S. They come washed in the U.S. anyway. | ||
By who? | ||
By some undermotivated fuckhead. | ||

unidentified
|

And Bulletproof is a licensed trademark. | ||
So it's yours. | ||
Nobody can steal it. | ||
No one can steal it. | ||
It's been around for a long ass time for you to come along and jack it. | ||
That doesn't even make sense. | ||
Bulletproof ideas have been around since the beginning of time. | ||
You can use it for ideas, but if you're going to do bulletproof coffee or you're going to do it around food products, you're going to do it on me. | ||
I'm going to have some questions. | ||
That's all I'm going to say. | ||
It seems like you shouldn't be able to own the term bulletproof. | ||
They can own your genes, Joe. | ||
Goddamn, if people want to use it. | ||
I'm generous. | ||
Talk to me if you want to use it, but you can't just say, I'm going to make it. | ||
We can do let's get it on. | ||
Bulletproof potatoes and markets will not exist. | ||
It's too late. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah, it's over. | ||
Too bad. | ||
