Buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh What the River wants America Plus I'm your host Cole McCormick it's another week another episode what's going on people? Whoa happy to be here folks you made it to another week. Phenomenal it's Sunday October 29th 3.43 in the PM. It's another beautiful week folks we are it's another day where we are alive we are breathing oxygen y'all. Can you just give a big round of applause to yourself man you're still here on earth like congrats it's a beautiful time to be alive.
I want to start off condolences and rest in peace RIP to Matthew Perry who played Chandler on Friends I'm not I'm being totally real like I'm like emotional about this celebrity's death. I'm telling you right now this week on America Plus we're innovating we're pushing forward to a new beautiful world but at the same time you know last night was like filled filled with good things and bad things yesterday was my mom's birthday but then Chandler died I was filming something with my girlfriend but then I didn't have dinner so like it was just like one of those nights last night and the thing that is really bugging like I went to bed hungry and sad about Chandler this this poor man this this Matthew Perry guy so the reason I am so emotional about Matthew Perry dying is because I worked at Warner Brothers for two years and I worked as a tour guide and when you're on the tour at Warner Brothers you are literally on the set of Friends you are literally at Central Perk and I worked on the Friends set I can literally literally figuratively say that and I'm proud of that I'm happy about that I did a Friends show I would cast people and we would do like a they would like we had like a camera system and they would edit in the crowd into an episode of Friends and it was hilarious dude that was such a good time dude and I love Chandler like Chandler's always like the guy you know and like Friends is so big like I know like Friends is like ginormous like Friends is nuts dude I did a specific Friends tour there was a season a holiday season for Thanksgiving where we did on Saturday mornings we did Friends tours where you pay 80 bucks for a ticket and it's everything Friends it's where they filmed how they filmed what they filmed everywhere everything it was people came in droves for this event dude I I had more middle-aged women flirting with me than any other time in my life dude like it was crazy bro like anyway I say all that just to say rest in peace Matthew Perry dude that sucks dude that sucks whatever someone dies man that just sucks sad news dude but on the bright side on the brighter side I'm happy that he lived and I'm happy that he was home and comfortable when he passed away that's all you can really be thankful for in these moments right just whatever is right in front of you just whatever the reality is you know if it's not that terrible then it's something to be grateful for some something about that so there's some sort of philosophy tied to that way of thinking I think this week so what we're doing this week I got a little I just want to talk I don't really have any clips I have a few topics here that I want to run down with all you the first thing is my experience this past week trying to buy raw milk I need to tell you some breaking news about California and raw milk and raw dairy products it's been a whole kerfuffle happening over here this this week of Halloween dude there's literally been no milk in the grocery stores and the reason for that is because um there has been an I'm not sure if an outbreak is the right wording but there's been a recall for sure there's been a recall on all the milk from raw farms in Fresno California because of multiple nine I read an article saying nine cases of salmonella um originally this happened through San Diego and they put out information to the grocery stores saying to hold the product while they test and next thing I know like it's nowhere like I don't live in San Diego but the milk is also not at my store so I'm like hey what's going on and it took a few days for the information to like settle and there was like so much testing going on so much independent testing and you know I'm bringing all this up just to talk about like the food system my experience in it um just like the discussions around this food specifically this is just the one topic the first topic I'm talking about I'm talking about many different it's a smorgasbord of topics today guys um but the salmonella in my raw milk dude first of all I didn't get sick I only a few people got sick nine people got it and it's a statewide recall now whenever you discuss an outbreak of disease that usually means like wherever it came from is like no good you know like that's why in the beginning of covid they were trying to say that the the virus came from a wet market you know so clearly there's like like they want to lean like like like illnesses always come from food and the authorities always want to lean on blaming that food no matter what their regulations or no matter what their whatever no matter what they've been doing they want to say no the food did it the food killed everyone even though the practices of keeping food and milk clean are pretty simple you know and it's just interesting you know whenever you hear about salmonella it's always coming from meat right it's always coming from turkey it's coming from red meat going from poultry undercooked poultry it's like people don't know how to cook mainly so it's just rare people say you can get salmonella from eggs but I saw something about I saw a doctor saying the odds of getting salmonella from eggs is like one in 30,000 so you would have to have like five eggs a day for 15 years to have a chance to get salmonella from an egg and I've never heard it from raw milk I've never heard it from raw milk but when you go to the California I guess I do have some information to share about the California Health Department this is just like silly dude like their entire website like it's wild how this product can be sold in stores but when you go to California Health I don't want to type it in right now I can't type in podcasts at the same time dude pretty much eight tenths of this article of this of this government websites page talking about raw milk was all risks and possible diseases that you can get from consuming raw milk and it's like damn dude now we got salmonella we got nine cases of salmonella it's like if anyone does any googling like if anyone does any talking online about raw milk the benefits people are going to google it and see the salmonella outbreak and then they're going to be like why the fuck would I drink raw milk when there's salmonella in it and so what I'm working through right now is just I'm trying to work through like what's the right word like just a dip in the narrative sometimes you got to do like crowd control I'm trying to figure out what the PR thing is that I'm like trying to do like I want there to be good PR around raw milk but something bad happened there's there's like a mini crisis and I need to like manage the narrative or like at least I'm trying to understand how that works because the government's information on it is going to be consistent even though it's fear-based even though it's lies even though the information the government has is misleading you it's consistent it's consistent and you just don't know it's misleading you until you like open your eyes you know until you really look around so what do you even talk about when the product that you love when the food that you believe in that's not mainstream is in a moment of crisis you know I just want to point out to the fact that you know we have the tests that's the one thing I'm happy about the tests were accurate you know and thank God it was only nine single digits single-digit outbreak of foodborne illness statewide statewide maybe there might be a few more we'll see but at this point with my information there's only been nine cases and that's not a big deal salmonella the article I read said multiple children were hospitalized but that could mean anything that could mean they just went to the doctor you know like hospital like so I feel like sometimes when you see the word hospitalized in in articles it's always like like don't don't like it's like some serious shit hospitalized whoops hang on hospitalized like some bad shit dude but at the same time like there should be a hospital right you should be able to go to the go to the hospital whenever you need to so like like why is that a bad thing that they went to the hospital for that like sounds like sounds like the system worked you know like that seems like the positive thing that that that I can point to the system that is here to to help us identify illnesses and and help heal us from the illnesses like it all worked we know how to treat salmonella we know how to we know how to alert people you know and the farm itself that was the that was the most interesting thing trying to get the information from the farm itself they were doing raw farms was doing their own independent testing and they had said that all their stuff came back clean it came back negative for for any illnesses but I guess there was a few cases in San Diego and Orange County that they just had some cases I don't know um so it we'll see where it goes there's been salmonella outbreaks before and it's been a lot worse to my memory the thing that I remember right off the bat is like somewhere in the 2010s there was a peanut buttered salmonella recall and it was like it was the peanut butter that we had it was literally like the cereal number and I was like eating it and I was like oh my god I was freaking out when I was in I was like a freshman or eighth grade whatever and I was like peanut butter can get you sick that's crazy and so I guess I guess my emotions my cult like instincts when it comes to consuming foods because I'm so a part of some some animal based raw milk cult on Twitter I just don't want to take the heat like I just want to like be like fuck you man like raw milk is good dude like don't don't come at me like that dude but then the other part of me is like okay we got to take this in yeah there's some risk there's some risk but that risk is no different than any other food group that risk is no different than any other risk with any other food I mean so I guess that's what I got to talk about with people too like we just got to be aware of these things and is there a way that we can test it ourselves is there a way that we can just do that like I appreciate that there's independent testing with with the farm I appreciate the government is willing to tell me the milk has salmonella but at the same time can I test it is that possible like where are those tests where are those products am I able to buy that on Amazon like raw milk tester raw milk disease tester like what's the pH on that man like is there like a stick I can buy I just got to dip in how do they do it so I got to figure that out I don't think I I really don't think it's a it's able to be bought but regardless regardless last night so I mentioned I was filming last night I filmed another short film oh oh on the list of things that I was like going through yesterday yesterday was also my sixth anniversary of living in Los Angeles can you believe that literally six years six years of me living in LA and I was filming a little short film I was filming another short with my friend Soren who he was the cinematographer on my short film in 2020 the break-in this one that we were doing last night I was actually acting with Shannon with my girlfriend and that was really cool her and I had never acted together and it was one of those things where I was like nervous about and I was I was wondering how her and I would like would be I say this we live together I'm not sure how we're gonna be we've been together for four years but you don't know how the other one's gonna act you don't know what the other one's reactions are gonna be and you know Shannon she just she also has like a different mindset on acting than I do in terms of like she's very academic and I'm very not so she's like getting a little worried that I'm not saying the lines exactly as they are on the page but I'm like just keep going I'm saying the exact same thing it doesn't matter what I say I'm getting abducted by aliens here it doesn't matter what I say so like there's just like dichotomy you know and that was super fun last night so you know just another like overlapping of everything in the universe you know mom's my mom turned 50 she's in Cabo with my dad my parents are just partying dude just partying out just partying out there their middle ages going right into their seniorhood just blasted I love it I support it they're having a good time I keep texting my dad he's just hanging out they're in the spa like they're chilling I'm filming a movie I'm getting ready for a podcast I'm making my movie so I got I'm making multiple movies man like there's a lot of things to be grateful for yesterday this weekend dude and it was a fun time I liked acting with Shannon it was really cool and we were only there for like a few hours it was a really short script you know just trying to be creative you know that's what you do out here that's what you do you're you just try to be creative and you look for a group of people who want to be consistent with that you know that's the entire purpose of moving out to LA you know to be creative like you just you're trying to find that group to be consistent with and hopefully you're able to do that hopefully you have that willpower hopefully the people around you make you better and I was happy that I have these filmmaking friends you know these are my filmmaking friends that I'm with you know I was with it was three other guys that I've worked with all before and they're good people and I like hanging out with them and I like making movies with them so you know I just want to do more with them you know sometimes my mental health I can feel like I don't have any friends sometimes I feel like you know I I get caught up in my own narratives I get caught up in my own bullshit of like you know like nobody likes me like the world hates me and like I'm just like I'm a nuisance they treat my nuance like a new one wait what did tell the creator they treat my new that wait they treat my nuance like a nuisance that's what it was that's what it was I was just stuttering I'm sorry they treat my nuance like a nuisance and you know that's not true that's not true people like me like I need to like be I need to not think negatively about myself man like I put my best foot forward and I'm happy that I have those people to put all of our best foot forwards you know what I mean that's really what it's about in six years in LA like even though you know I'm still not like rich I'm still not a millionaire I'm still not anything like that but we're here now and we're high we're expanding ourselves we're we're posting more video and we're we're trying to be honest with with our intentions and we just want to vibe with people and you know that's the beautiful thing about podcasting that's the beautiful thing about about being creative and filmmaking and is you me I have permission to just be me you know I have permission to just be me and I shouldn't be afraid to talk about raw milk don't be afraid to talk about what you want to talk about don't be afraid to stand up for truth okay don't be afraid to stand up for what you believe is right for life what is right for people for the people of earth you know like what is good for the people of earth don't be afraid to talk about that stuff dude and I and I'm one to say that it's important for you to be creative on in this world it's important for you to have a group of friends to have some people around you who who just don't have boundaries about what they can and can't do you know it's like everyone criticizes Elon for like just randomly buying Twitter but you know what I think that'd be pretty fucking cool if I had a friend who could just buy something like buy something like that like he imagine not liking something or just imagine wanting to change something and then just buying it and changing it you know like that's sort of what the situation is like it's like my filmmaking friends are they don't see a boundary with making movies so why not just make a movie like Elon might Elon doesn't see boundaries with money maybe it does you know but he doesn't see boundaries with with those dollar bills you know we don't see boundaries with the work it takes to put something out and that's the type of mindset that you need in yourself and around you so that you can accomplish what you're trying to accomplish because you know I just felt energized I felt energized leaving that film session that's really what what it all points to and I spoke to them about my short film magic mushroom fun time that I'm finally making the video for I got like eight seconds so far I'm excited for this upcoming month you know this is gonna be a big month I'm getting all the video for it and I wanted to see what they thought of it and I think they think it's cool I think they think it's interesting it's all just a process you know I'm just with my creative process I'm just trying to allow it to shape itself I'm trying to do the right movements so it shapes itself that's something that I'm experimenting with right now that's something that I realized happens while I was making the short film things just happen the edit just happens a certain way a vibe just creates itself and so whatever the intention I have that's okay go with that but there's also going to be something else that shows itself there's going to be more and so always be looking for more always be looking for what this story is to is telling you and that's been something that I've been leading with there's been some edits to the images there's been some changes to what I'm trying to express there's been changes of the of the execution of getting these images I had originally said that it was gonna be like a fully animated short film you know and you know it's it's slowly changed because I'm like you know what I really want to talk about this I want to tell talk about this and I feel like it should be like this type of a vibe and then oh it'd be sort of dramatic if we cut to this live-action piece and it's like I kept thinking about different things and I'm like okay well what if we did this what if we did this and I'm just saying I'm just trying to say yes to what feels good to me for this project and it's important to just consistently create an environment for yourself that where you can do that you know and and filming with my friends last night was that environment like we're just we were chilling we're vibing I was I was in the zone I was enjoying myself I was enjoying making acting choices and it was a good time so just shout out to those guys shout out to soren walter and danny dude come on now whoa no uh come on come on come on I love you guys I need like a I need like a hype up sound you know I don't have like a I don't have a hype up yet um anyway um the movie's coming along well by the way magic mushroom fun time um I'm excited for it dude like I don't want to stress too much about it right now I have like I feel like I have so much but still so little you know we're in like the forest we're in the middle of the forest in the creative process and we're moving through it and we're staying strong and we're staying calm and patient we're just we're looking for the most interesting thing you know and and to inspire myself more I'm actually going to see Martin Scorsese's film tonight's uh killers of the flower moon anybody have you heard of that Martin Scorsese talked about him a few weeks ago um you always got to see the leo movie right you need to see the leo movie if you don't like like why do you even like care to talk about it everything leo does is something uh I should say Leonardo DiCaprio everything leo does is phenomenal and the fact that he's like making most of his films with marty with martin scorsese it's something that I'm just fascinated by along with robert de Niro being in this movie I remember a few years ago in 2019 I saw Scorsese's movie the Irishman and I remember being really fascinated by that just just fascinated by this type of a movie by this guy who's so old like he's he's almost 80 he's almost as old as biden dude like he's old but he's still sharp he's super sharp still and it's his consistency that's brought him till today you know and it's him and de Niro on for 50 years can you imagine making make like doing something for 50 years with a friend of yours you know like that is such a rare story and it inspires me because you know I definitely want to be podcasting for 50 years I want to be making movies for 50 years you know we'll see what happens in 50 years we'll see where technology's at we'll see where everything's at but the dedication is what inspires me the consistency is what inspires me so we're checking it out it's three and a half hours we've got the 8 p.m. showing so we'll see if I if I stay up dude I need to I need to just like trudge through it just go for the cup of coffee I guess I usually don't but I guess I need to but that's gonna be a good watch I know it's gonna be good it's gonna be deep deep emotional what's your favorite Martin Scorsese movie comment down below comment down below you do you do you do you do you do you do you Shannon Passy ladies and gentlemen how are you yeah hey can you come here real quick I was actually just talking about filming last night um can you come by and um pretty much you don't need to talk for long but could you just describe what the experience was for you what was your experience acting with me opposite you Shannon Passy okay um I really enjoyed it so we approach things differently when it comes to you and I acting together is that a problem no it's just different it gave me a little bit of anxiety for a moment so what was the what was going on with that yeah so I went to college for acting and it was theater based and we always were kind of taught you had to learn the lines were perfect and then it was up to the director and like the creative process after if you couldn't not be line perfect so I just the way I memorize now is I try to make it as line perfect as possible and so we get in the car yesterday to go to filming and I'm like and I'm like hey can we go over my lines now I need to learn them he's driving and he's like hey you want to go over the lines and I'm like yeah have you looked at him he's like no I was like great and so acting wise you know they always say acting is just reacting so I had a little bit of a moment where I was like oh my god like it's gonna be so hard for me to act if you don't know you're like if you don't have like the first step down it's hard to get into like forgetting the lines and just acting I was like oh no this might be like it's not great but how did it but how did it work out how how did it out because um you are very good at listening to the lines and then remembering them that way so you have more of like an audible learning type um and very different from mine so we were able to go through I would give him his line each beat we would go through his lines I do mine and then we just run it a few times and then we go to the next beat and then we just did all the beats together do you like that process or no yeah it's fine I don't mind you hate it I don't do it myself I like doing that before filming to make sure we have the lines and to get the rhythm down but that's not how I prefer to learn lines um that's just what I call a rehearsal before copy beforehand but no I really enjoyed filming last night it was fun um I liked it was my so it was like six years for me was it an anniversary for you of what being in LA yeah no I moved here February 2018 oh February okay never mind I was like what are you talking about six years since you acted yeah pretty much yeah yeah no it was super fun and I like the process uh this is the second time I've done like a horror spooky thing oh yeah it was like an alien invasion yeah and so I liked that it was fun to kind of play with that um definitely want to do more comedy I feel like everything I've been doing is like dramatic or spooky and I'm like okay I need like some some laughter now but no I really yeah no I really enjoyed it I liked working with you it was nice we already had the chemistry yeah that was lucky that was lucky we already had the chemistry yeah um and yeah no it was a lot of fun it's just fun working with Cole um yeah no complaints I mean probably some complaints but not for this no I'm just kidding anyway thank you ladies and gentlemen let us know Shannon Passy folks Shannon Passy thanks Shannon thank you one of a kind Shannon Passy oh yeah we're just hanging out today guys we're hanging out today's a hangout um with that folks we're gonna head on into the booth the value for value section America Plus is a value for value show what that means is folks I I'm here I'm doing my thing I'm vibing I want to create an environment that helps you think better for the future and try to think better about the narratives around you and I just want to vibe with you dude I just want to hang out um we are uh let me go to this let me go to fountain let me go to fountain.fm right now well the audience puts the value on the show that's the main thing with value for value I do my thing I produce what I want to produce and you show me or you reciprocate the value that you get from this from this conversation from these thoughts thoughts that's what I have to offer thoughts one of my what I'm on YouTube one of my recommended lists is called thoughts and I thought that was I think that's like the most weird category ever but if you want thoughts you come to America Plus capiche capiche and some thoughts we have to share today are coming in from people who saw some value in last week number 93 meet me uh these people these people gave it money to me dude thank you to these people oh there's so there's a few ways that you can engage with value for value three main ways time talent treasure okay if you want to reciprocate the value that you get through time just by listening or turning liking and sharing um if you're listening to the podcast send me some sats if you're watching the video share it comment engage with it you know just that's your time you know talent if you want to help me out making a movie if you want to help me out with anything with the podcast if you want to do anything with with RSS with with my website if you want to help me out with anything like that like I'm building a team like just like a loose like loose network team not like you're working for me but like if you're willing to like help me out with like an aspect of of my distribution of putting out the video or of just making this show better dude like what can you what can you share what value can you give to America plus and then the last thing is treasure um bitcoin i prefer bitcoin by the way um if you don't know anything about bitcoin just download found go to value for value dot info for more info then download the fountain dot fm app it's the best way to support the show so if you download found that's like the cool way to to hang out with me pretty much the the main innovative thing with value for value is that it's using a payment system called the bitcoin lightning network and you're able to send payments to anyone around the globe for pretty much zero cost and that's my preferred currency bitcoin so you can send me some small units of bitcoin called satoshis through the fountain app or any modern podcasting app go to modern podcast apps dot com uh that's a whole decentralized network dude like it's people just sending money to each other and if you want to support me you're able to i also have a paypal if you want to help me out through paypal if you if you prefer united states dollars dollar dollar dollar make me holla uh but i'm reading the messages for what the sats the boostograms they're called um sending a boostogram by the way this first one comes from at drew 2261 he felt like sending in 1 000 sats drew thank you and what does he has to say he has to say we all need to start fighting back against the mainstream narratives over the past couple decades they have made us fat dumb and broke financially and spiritually look into the texas boys on youtube and rumble they talk about the carnivore diet and value for value pretty frequently all right boosting is loving uh drew thank you very much drew 22 you are the guy um yeah i i definitely want to i'll check those guys out i haven't yet the texas boys check those guys out on youtube i'll see what they got to say um if they talk about you know value for value and carnivore dude i'm your guy uh this next one comes from at joel w oh wait hang on joel sent in like four boostograms there was one thing that i needed to do that i didn't do let me go to i dude i can't go to my phone right now um so okay before joel w sent in a boostogram my other friend kiren down from the mere mortals podcast he sent in uh a boostogram but like i saw it in my wallet but i didn't see it under the podcast so that's the problem i'm having and to my memory he sent in karen sent in like 3000 sats 3300 3300 3333 sats whatever um and he said something about something about something dude karen you got to boost me again something's happening with with the boosts they're not letting you boost me bud i need my friend to boost me please so karen fountain bitcoin gods please let karen boost me and let me read it on air for once in a while poor favor thank you karen for the boost boost anyway next one joel w ladies and gentlemen our good friend uh from the east coast he sends in a satchel of richards 1111 sats he says if the fat exists in quantifiable amounts in nature eat it okay so what is this talking about joel i think you're a meat eater he's definitely a meat eater guys fat is good when you eat meat fat is good that's what he's saying this next one he says human brains didn't become the powerhouses they are by eating plants steak bacon chicken leg uh wings cheese eggs and butter are all brain foods yes sir yes sir uh next one is he says and these are all satchel of richards 1111 sats he said i'm 47 and probably in better shape than these young bucks in the military uh yeah dude you are for sure i'm just gonna assume that i haven't seen your body in real life but last week i was talking about the military uh like 68 percent in the military being overweight and you got like 27 percent of the navy are obese like that's some bad shit dude like that's terrible we gotta fix that man if you're in the military fix yourself please uh this last one from joel w uh he says and just for a shrinking tumor boost for my father my father with the cancer with the shrinking boot with the shrinking tumors uh thank you joel w and now as the french say it is time for the boost you're my guy joel you're my guy thank you to all those people who saw value in the show now don't go anywhere that's not the end we're not done with the show yet i'm still talking about value for value and we're talking about innovation in the ecosystem of it okay america plus is just one aspect of value for value this entire thing is so much bigger than one podcaster than one brand um and i just want to encourage you to just look into it just try to get into it go to value for value dot info for more info and it's it's a really nice breakdown of what the system is and how much better it is than any locked in subscription service plan you know like value for value is better than youtube memberships value for value is better than netflix subscription a month you know that's what i think value for value is the future of engaging with the content that you want to consume and and support you know there's already so many patreons and so many gofundme's about help us make our short film help us make our thing help us make our animated thing help us do this help us make this help us make that and those things are just truly unsustainable and value for value is a system that that puts the responsibility in your hand to bring the value and so it's my goal to continue to bring the conversations and to bring the honesty of where i'm at with the things that i believe in you know so so i don't really have too much clips today i i was just i wasn't in my head but i was just feeling in my head you know i was just i'm just thinking about how to deal with certain things and i'm i'm trying to ponder what the right path is for myself and you know that's why i have a podcast so i can express myself in these things and these thoughts and that's value man i mean i think that's valuable um even though i don't listen to too many podcasts like this one um that's just because i think i'm unique man i think i believe that my personality and the things that i'm interested in i believe those combined bring value to something at least i think so i i want them to um and i'm willing to listen to everyone i'm i'm willing to take in all the data i'm willing to take in all the advice man so just not like it's not set in stone for me you know it's what is set in stone is that i'm podcasting and i'm doing value for value forever but what's not set in stone are my ways are how i approach things you know every episode is an experiment that's really how i approach it dude i'm trying to do a bunch of new stuff with with the video um and i'm trying to figure out like what's the like adam curry says a podcast is an mp3 in an rss feed okay i can accept that but now i'm doing video and i'm trying to do value for value but i can't send bitcoin through twitter yet and it's like like you can't really do that like twitter's not podcasting 2.0 twitter is not value for value but i feel like it can be extended into it so there's this totally different realm that i'm trying to learn and you know the whole thing's evolving the whole show is evolving and it's scary and it's wild and we're moving into phase two soon and you know at the end of magic mushroom fun time you know i know what i want to manifest i know what where i want to be at by the time i release magic mushroom fun time i know where i want to be at and this podcast is just a simple documentation of of that of that process man you're going to be able to look back at what's going on here and say holy shit col just did that col really did what he said he would do that's been the intention all along so magic mushroom fun time is just one marker on that list um on that roadmap of of making things and and doing stuff and being a podcaster who makes movies man like that's the real that's the innovative thing that i got that's that's that's what i have to offer or at least that's what i think i have to offer and i'm looking for more i'm looking for more value i'm looking to give more value i'm looking to to just be known as an honest person dude and if you want to engage with that value feed feedback loop please do man please do like when it comes to the podcast like i want to i'm trying to figure out how i can do the video as a podcast or as as an rss feed you know like i want to be able to set up bitcoin directly to the video so while you're watching it there's just an option to just send bitcoin like that's the real thing dude like that's what i want and i want to be in control of that but i can't really self-host it so there's these things that need to change and there's these trade-offs that need to happen and where i put the content and how i talk about things and and how consistently i am with certain words so i'm talking more about value for value every single episode now just so just to get the word out man like i need to get the word out like if i can be the value for value guy then that'd be nice but i want more people to do value for value i want to be i want to be someone who just encourages everyone to do value for value like like joe rogan told everyone to told everyone to do a podcast i'm going to tell everyone to do value for value like start using value for value you just start using value for value have you heard of value for value no one else is doing that you know like i i got to make it mainstream you know like that's my mission right now i got to i got to expand the podcast and make value for value mainstream while i make my movies dude like this is it this is it man i feel confident on this path i feel confident and my big dreams my big hollywood dreams i'm making a movie of ben afleck and somehow doing it somehow using value for value with him or somehow um just having it be known just making something with someone with a healthy system like that's what i want and so it'd be crazy if i could interview ben afleck and he's like yeah get me in on the value and i got ben afleck's value split like that'd be crazy you know like who likes bitcoin in hollywood come at me america plus like let's go dude like i'm trying to get connected here like i know there's people in hollywood who like bitcoin like i know there's people who are who are into this like step up like let's do it let's make a movie let's do more with value for value in bitcoin and cinema let's go for it so i'm opening myself up to that to those types of opportunities and to just also travel like i'm definitely traveling more at the end of all this um honestly i'm looking for 2024 to change my life i'm looking for the year 2024 to be the most positive and eventful year of my life so far like i just want to travel more i want to make more money i want to meet more people i want to tell more stories i want to just be more whatever i'm doing right now i want to be more of it because i feel good right now man i feel good i don't i don't feel too stressed you know whatever stresses i have you know it's just like bullshit stresses you know it's like it's like work stuff like work drama kitchen drama with chef whatever bullshit it doesn't that doesn't matter and then like the other stress is what money okay but like i've been okay so far so like we'll just keep on letting that go by so not really stress and i can like i choose my energy i choose the energy that i put out and right now i choose to put out gratefulness i choose to put out gratitude and thankfulness and it's leading to more things dude it's leading to more things and there's more value to be gained there's more value to be given um what that looks like we'll see man like i got a lot of big ideas a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot of big ideas um but i gotta stick with the movies i gotta stick with it so somehow somehow movies in value for value value for value cinema somehow some way it's gonna happen what do you think about that do you think that's interesting i would love to hear your thoughts on that i would love to hear your thoughts on what you think about raw milk do you think it's healthy for you do you think anything in its raw form is healthy um just chime in man like i want to hear what you have to say um if you want to support the podcast download fountain send me a boost a gram if you want to support the video go to twitter go to x and subscribe or uh like follow dude i don't know dude i don't know what the freaking do i'm just still learning but enjoy yourself guys that's really what i got to that's all i got to say right now i love all of you thanks for tuning in uh that's america plus bitch stay free
pumpernickel buttersnout. Buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh What the River wants America Plus I'm your host Cole McCormick it's another week another episode what's going on people? Whoa happy to be here folks you made it to another week. Phenomenal it's Sunday October 29th 3.43 in the PM. It's another beautiful week folks we are it's another day where we are alive we are breathing oxygen y'all. Can you just give a big round of applause to yourself man you're still here on earth like congrats it's a beautiful time to be alive.
I want to start off condolences and rest in peace RIP to Matthew Perry who played Chandler on Friends I'm not I'm being totally real like I'm like emotional about this celebrity's death. I'm telling you right now this week on America Plus we're innovating we're pushing forward to a new beautiful world but at the same time you know last night was like filled filled with good things and bad things yesterday was my mom's birthday but then Chandler died I was filming something with my girlfriend but then I didn't have dinner so like it was just like one of those nights last night and the thing that is really bugging like I went to bed hungry and sad about Chandler this this poor man this this Matthew Perry guy so the reason I am so emotional about Matthew Perry dying is because I worked at Warner Brothers for two years and I worked as a tour guide and when you're on the tour at Warner Brothers you are literally on the set of Friends you are literally at Central Perk and I worked on the Friends set I can literally literally figuratively say that and I'm proud of that I'm happy about that I did a Friends show I would cast people and we would do like a they would like we had like a camera system and they would edit in the crowd into an episode of Friends and it was hilarious dude that was such a good time dude and I love Chandler like Chandler's always like the guy you know and like Friends is so big like I know like Friends is like ginormous like Friends is nuts dude I did a specific Friends tour there was a season a holiday season for Thanksgiving where we did on Saturday mornings we did Friends tours where you pay 80 bucks for a ticket and it's everything Friends it's where they filmed how they filmed what they filmed everywhere everything it was people came in droves for this event dude I I had more middle-aged women flirting with me than any other time in my life dude like it was crazy bro like anyway I say all that just to say rest in peace Matthew Perry dude that sucks dude that sucks whatever someone dies man that just sucks sad news dude but on the bright side on the brighter side I'm happy that he lived and I'm happy that he was home and comfortable when he passed away that's all you can really be thankful for in these moments right just whatever is right in front of you just whatever the reality is you know if it's not that terrible then it's something to be grateful for some something about that so there's some sort of philosophy tied to that way of thinking I think this week so what we're doing this week I got a little I just want to talk I don't really have any clips I have a few topics here that I want to run down with all you the first thing is my experience this past week trying to buy raw milk I need to tell you some breaking news about California and raw milk and raw dairy products it's been a whole kerfuffle happening over here this this week of Halloween dude there's literally been no milk in the grocery stores and the reason for that is because um there has been an I'm not sure if an outbreak is the right wording but there's been a recall for sure there's been a recall on all the milk from raw farms in Fresno California because of multiple nine I read an article saying nine cases of salmonella um originally this happened through San Diego and they put out information to the grocery stores saying to hold the product while they test and next thing I know like it's nowhere like I don't live in San Diego but the milk is also not at my store so I'm like hey what's going on and it took a few days for the information to like settle and there was like so much testing going on so much independent testing and you know I'm bringing all this up just to talk about like the food system my experience in it um just like the discussions around this food specifically this is just the one topic the first topic I'm talking about I'm talking about many different it's a smorgasbord of topics today guys um but the salmonella in my raw milk dude first of all I didn't get sick I only a few people got sick nine people got it and it's a statewide recall now whenever you discuss an outbreak of disease that usually means like wherever it came from is like no good you know like that's why in the beginning of covid they were trying to say that the the virus came from a wet market you know so clearly there's like like they want to lean like like like illnesses always come from food and the authorities always want to lean on blaming that food no matter what their regulations or no matter what their whatever no matter what they've been doing they want to say no the food did it the food killed everyone even though the practices of keeping food and milk clean are pretty simple you know and it's just interesting you know whenever you hear about salmonella it's always coming from meat right it's always coming from turkey it's coming from red meat going from poultry undercooked poultry it's like people don't know how to cook mainly so it's just rare people say you can get salmonella from eggs but I saw something about I saw a doctor saying the odds of getting salmonella from eggs is like one in 30,000 so you would have to have like five eggs a day for 15 years to have a chance to get salmonella from an egg and I've never heard it from raw milk I've never heard it from raw milk but when you go to the California I guess I do have some information to share about the California Health Department this is just like silly dude like their entire website like it's wild how this product can be sold in stores but when you go to California Health I don't want to type it in right now I can't type in podcasts at the same time dude pretty much eight tenths of this article of this of this government websites page talking about raw milk was all risks and possible diseases that you can get from consuming raw milk and it's like damn dude now we got salmonella we got nine cases of salmonella it's like if anyone does any googling like if anyone does any talking online about raw milk the benefits people are going to google it and see the salmonella outbreak and then they're going to be like why the fuck would I drink raw milk when there's salmonella in it and so what I'm working through right now is just I'm trying to work through like what's the right word like just a dip in the narrative sometimes you got to do like crowd control I'm trying to figure out what the PR thing is that I'm like trying to do like I want there to be good PR around raw milk but something bad happened there's there's like a mini crisis and I need to like manage the narrative or like at least I'm trying to understand how that works because the government's information on it is going to be consistent even though it's fear-based even though it's lies even though the information the government has is misleading you it's consistent it's consistent and you just don't know it's misleading you until you like open your eyes you know until you really look around so what do you even talk about when the product that you love when the food that you believe in that's not mainstream is in a moment of crisis you know I just want to point out to the fact that you know we have the tests that's the one thing I'm happy about the tests were accurate you know and thank God it was only nine single digits single-digit outbreak of foodborne illness statewide statewide maybe there might be a few more we'll see but at this point with my information there's only been nine cases and that's not a big deal salmonella the article I read said multiple children were hospitalized but that could mean anything that could mean they just went to the doctor you know like hospital like so I feel like sometimes when you see the word hospitalized in in articles it's always like like don't don't like it's like some serious shit hospitalized whoops hang on hospitalized like some bad shit dude but at the same time like there should be a hospital right you should be able to go to the go to the hospital whenever you need to so like like why is that a bad thing that they went to the hospital for that like sounds like sounds like the system worked you know like that seems like the positive thing that that that I can point to the system that is here to to help us identify illnesses and and help heal us from the illnesses like it all worked we know how to treat salmonella we know how to we know how to alert people you know and the farm itself that was the that was the most interesting thing trying to get the information from the farm itself they were doing raw farms was doing their own independent testing and they had said that all their stuff came back clean it came back negative for for any illnesses but I guess there was a few cases in San Diego and Orange County that they just had some cases I don't know um so it we'll see where it goes there's been salmonella outbreaks before and it's been a lot worse to my memory the thing that I remember right off the bat is like somewhere in the 2010s there was a peanut buttered salmonella recall and it was like it was the peanut butter that we had it was literally like the cereal number and I was like eating it and I was like oh my god I was freaking out when I was in I was like a freshman or eighth grade whatever and I was like peanut butter can get you sick that's crazy and so I guess I guess my emotions my cult like instincts when it comes to consuming foods because I'm so a part of some some animal based raw milk cult on Twitter I just don't want to take the heat like I just want to like be like fuck you man like raw milk is good dude like don't don't come at me like that dude but then the other part of me is like okay we got to take this in yeah there's some risk there's some risk but that risk is no different than any other food group that risk is no different than any other risk with any other food I mean so I guess that's what I got to talk about with people too like we just got to be aware of these things and is there a way that we can test it ourselves is there a way that we can just do that like I appreciate that there's independent testing with with the farm I appreciate the government is willing to tell me the milk has salmonella but at the same time can I test it is that possible like where are those tests where are those products am I able to buy that on Amazon like raw milk tester raw milk disease tester like what's the pH on that man like is there like a stick I can buy I just got to dip in how do they do it so I got to figure that out I don't think I I really don't think it's a it's able to be bought but regardless regardless last night so I mentioned I was filming last night I filmed another short film oh oh on the list of things that I was like going through yesterday yesterday was also my sixth anniversary of living in Los Angeles can you believe that literally six years six years of me living in LA and I was filming a little short film I was filming another short with my friend Soren who he was the cinematographer on my short film in 2020 the break-in this one that we were doing last night I was actually acting with Shannon with my girlfriend and that was really cool her and I had never acted together and it was one of those things where I was like nervous about and I was I was wondering how her and I would like would be I say this we live together I'm not sure how we're gonna be we've been together for four years but you don't know how the other one's gonna act you don't know what the other one's reactions are gonna be and you know Shannon she just she also has like a different mindset on acting than I do in terms of like she's very academic and I'm very not so she's like getting a little worried that I'm not saying the lines exactly as they are on the page but I'm like just keep going I'm saying the exact same thing it doesn't matter what I say I'm getting abducted by aliens here it doesn't matter what I say so like there's just like dichotomy you know and that was super fun last night so you know just another like overlapping of everything in the universe you know mom's my mom turned 50 she's in Cabo with my dad my parents are just partying dude just partying out just partying out there their middle ages going right into their seniorhood just blasted I love it I support it they're having a good time I keep texting my dad he's just hanging out they're in the spa like they're chilling I'm filming a movie I'm getting ready for a podcast I'm making my movie so I got I'm making multiple movies man like there's a lot of things to be grateful for yesterday this weekend dude and it was a fun time I liked acting with Shannon it was really cool and we were only there for like a few hours it was a really short script you know just trying to be creative you know that's what you do out here that's what you do you're you just try to be creative and you look for a group of people who want to be consistent with that you know that's the entire purpose of moving out to LA you know to be creative like you just you're trying to find that group to be consistent with and hopefully you're able to do that hopefully you have that willpower hopefully the people around you make you better and I was happy that I have these filmmaking friends you know these are my filmmaking friends that I'm with you know I was with it was three other guys that I've worked with all before and they're good people and I like hanging out with them and I like making movies with them so you know I just want to do more with them you know sometimes my mental health I can feel like I don't have any friends sometimes I feel like you know I I get caught up in my own narratives I get caught up in my own bullshit of like you know like nobody likes me like the world hates me and like I'm just like I'm a nuisance they treat my nuance like a new one wait what did tell the creator they treat my new that wait they treat my nuance like a nuisance that's what it was that's what it was I was just stuttering I'm sorry they treat my nuance like a nuisance and you know that's not true that's not true people like me like I need to like be I need to not think negatively about myself man like I put my best foot forward and I'm happy that I have those people to put all of our best foot forwards you know what I mean that's really what it's about in six years in LA like even though you know I'm still not like rich I'm still not a millionaire I'm still not anything like that but we're here now and we're high we're expanding ourselves we're we're posting more video and we're we're trying to be honest with with our intentions and we just want to vibe with people and you know that's the beautiful thing about podcasting that's the beautiful thing about about being creative and filmmaking and is you me I have permission to just be me you know I have permission to just be me and I shouldn't be afraid to talk about raw milk don't be afraid to talk about what you want to talk about don't be afraid to stand up for truth okay don't be afraid to stand up for what you believe is right for life what is right for people for the people of earth you know like what is good for the people of earth don't be afraid to talk about that stuff dude and I and I'm one to say that it's important for you to be creative on in this world it's important for you to have a group of friends to have some people around you who who just don't have boundaries about what they can and can't do you know it's like everyone criticizes Elon for like just randomly buying Twitter but you know what I think that'd be pretty fucking cool if I had a friend who could just buy something like buy something like that like he imagine not liking something or just imagine wanting to change something and then just buying it and changing it you know like that's sort of what the situation is like it's like my filmmaking friends are they don't see a boundary with making movies so why not just make a movie like Elon might Elon doesn't see boundaries with money maybe it does you know but he doesn't see boundaries with with those dollar bills you know we don't see boundaries with the work it takes to put something out and that's the type of mindset that you need in yourself and around you so that you can accomplish what you're trying to accomplish because you know I just felt energized I felt energized leaving that film session that's really what what it all points to and I spoke to them about my short film magic mushroom fun time that I'm finally making the video for I got like eight seconds so far I'm excited for this upcoming month you know this is gonna be a big month I'm getting all the video for it and I wanted to see what they thought of it and I think they think it's cool I think they think it's interesting it's all just a process you know I'm just with my creative process I'm just trying to allow it to shape itself I'm trying to do the right movements so it shapes itself that's something that I'm experimenting with right now that's something that I realized happens while I was making the short film things just happen the edit just happens a certain way a vibe just creates itself and so whatever the intention I have that's okay go with that but there's also going to be something else that shows itself there's going to be more and so always be looking for more always be looking for what this story is to is telling you and that's been something that I've been leading with there's been some edits to the images there's been some changes to what I'm trying to express there's been changes of the of the execution of getting these images I had originally said that it was gonna be like a fully animated short film you know and you know it's it's slowly changed because I'm like you know what I really want to talk about this I want to tell talk about this and I feel like it should be like this type of a vibe and then oh it'd be sort of dramatic if we cut to this live-action piece and it's like I kept thinking about different things and I'm like okay well what if we did this what if we did this and I'm just saying I'm just trying to say yes to what feels good to me for this project and it's important to just consistently create an environment for yourself that where you can do that you know and and filming with my friends last night was that environment like we're just we were chilling we're vibing I was I was in the zone I was enjoying myself I was enjoying making acting choices and it was a good time so just shout out to those guys shout out to soren walter and danny dude come on now whoa no uh come on come on come on I love you guys I need like a I need like a hype up sound you know I don't have like a I don't have a hype up yet um anyway um the movie's coming along well by the way magic mushroom fun time um I'm excited for it dude like I don't want to stress too much about it right now I have like I feel like I have so much but still so little you know we're in like the forest we're in the middle of the forest in the creative process and we're moving through it and we're staying strong and we're staying calm and patient we're just we're looking for the most interesting thing you know and and to inspire myself more I'm actually going to see Martin Scorsese's film tonight's uh killers of the flower moon anybody have you heard of that Martin Scorsese talked about him a few weeks ago um you always got to see the leo movie right you need to see the leo movie if you don't like like why do you even like care to talk about it everything leo does is something uh I should say Leonardo DiCaprio everything leo does is phenomenal and the fact that he's like making most of his films with marty with martin scorsese it's something that I'm just fascinated by along with robert de Niro being in this movie I remember a few years ago in 2019 I saw Scorsese's movie the Irishman and I remember being really fascinated by that just just fascinated by this type of a movie by this guy who's so old like he's he's almost 80 he's almost as old as biden dude like he's old but he's still sharp he's super sharp still and it's his consistency that's brought him till today you know and it's him and de Niro on for 50 years can you imagine making make like doing something for 50 years with a friend of yours you know like that is such a rare story and it inspires me because you know I definitely want to be podcasting for 50 years I want to be making movies for 50 years you know we'll see what happens in 50 years we'll see where technology's at we'll see where everything's at but the dedication is what inspires me the consistency is what inspires me so we're checking it out it's three and a half hours we've got the 8 p.m. showing so we'll see if I if I stay up dude I need to I need to just like trudge through it just go for the cup of coffee I guess I usually don't but I guess I need to but that's gonna be a good watch I know it's gonna be good it's gonna be deep deep emotional what's your favorite Martin Scorsese movie comment down below comment down below you do you do you do you do you do you do you Shannon Passy ladies and gentlemen how are you yeah hey can you come here real quick I was actually just talking about filming last night um can you come by and um pretty much you don't need to talk for long but could you just describe what the experience was for you what was your experience acting with me opposite you Shannon Passy okay um I really enjoyed it so we approach things differently when it comes to you and I acting together is that a problem no it's just different it gave me a little bit of anxiety for a moment so what was the what was going on with that yeah so I went to college for acting and it was theater based and we always were kind of taught you had to learn the lines were perfect and then it was up to the director and like the creative process after if you couldn't not be line perfect so I just the way I memorize now is I try to make it as line perfect as possible and so we get in the car yesterday to go to filming and I'm like and I'm like hey can we go over my lines now I need to learn them he's driving and he's like hey you want to go over the lines and I'm like yeah have you looked at him he's like no I was like great and so acting wise you know they always say acting is just reacting so I had a little bit of a moment where I was like oh my god like it's gonna be so hard for me to act if you don't know you're like if you don't have like the first step down it's hard to get into like forgetting the lines and just acting I was like oh no this might be like it's not great but how did it but how did it work out how how did it out because um you are very good at listening to the lines and then remembering them that way so you have more of like an audible learning type um and very different from mine so we were able to go through I would give him his line each beat we would go through his lines I do mine and then we just run it a few times and then we go to the next beat and then we just did all the beats together do you like that process or no yeah it's fine I don't mind you hate it I don't do it myself I like doing that before filming to make sure we have the lines and to get the rhythm down but that's not how I prefer to learn lines um that's just what I call a rehearsal before copy beforehand but no I really enjoyed filming last night it was fun um I liked it was my so it was like six years for me was it an anniversary for you of what being in LA yeah no I moved here February 2018 oh February okay never mind I was like what are you talking about six years since you acted yeah pretty much yeah yeah no it was super fun and I like the process uh this is the second time I've done like a horror spooky thing oh yeah it was like an alien invasion yeah and so I liked that it was fun to kind of play with that um definitely want to do more comedy I feel like everything I've been doing is like dramatic or spooky and I'm like okay I need like some some laughter now but no I really yeah no I really enjoyed it I liked working with you it was nice we already had the chemistry yeah that was lucky that was lucky we already had the chemistry yeah um and yeah no it was a lot of fun it's just fun working with Cole um yeah no complaints I mean probably some complaints but not for this no I'm just kidding anyway thank you ladies and gentlemen let us know Shannon Passy folks Shannon Passy thanks Shannon thank you one of a kind Shannon Passy oh yeah we're just hanging out today guys we're hanging out today's a hangout um with that folks we're gonna head on into the booth the value for value section America Plus is a value for value show what that means is folks I I'm here I'm doing my thing I'm vibing I want to create an environment that helps you think better for the future and try to think better about the narratives around you and I just want to vibe with you dude I just want to hang out um we are uh let me go to this let me go to fountain let me go to fountain.fm right now well the audience puts the value on the show that's the main thing with value for value I do my thing I produce what I want to produce and you show me or you reciprocate the value that you get from this from this conversation from these thoughts thoughts that's what I have to offer thoughts one of my what I'm on YouTube one of my recommended lists is called thoughts and I thought that was I think that's like the most weird category ever but if you want thoughts you come to America Plus capiche capiche and some thoughts we have to share today are coming in from people who saw some value in last week number 93 meet me uh these people these people gave it money to me dude thank you to these people oh there's so there's a few ways that you can engage with value for value three main ways time talent treasure okay if you want to reciprocate the value that you get through time just by listening or turning liking and sharing um if you're listening to the podcast send me some sats if you're watching the video share it comment engage with it you know just that's your time you know talent if you want to help me out making a movie if you want to help me out with anything with the podcast if you want to do anything with with RSS with with my website if you want to help me out with anything like that like I'm building a team like just like a loose like loose network team not like you're working for me but like if you're willing to like help me out with like an aspect of of my distribution of putting out the video or of just making this show better dude like what can you what can you share what value can you give to America plus and then the last thing is treasure um bitcoin i prefer bitcoin by the way um if you don't know anything about bitcoin just download found go to value for value dot info for more info then download the fountain dot fm app it's the best way to support the show so if you download found that's like the cool way to to hang out with me pretty much the the main innovative thing with value for value is that it's using a payment system called the bitcoin lightning network and you're able to send payments to anyone around the globe for pretty much zero cost and that's my preferred currency bitcoin so you can send me some small units of bitcoin called satoshis through the fountain app or any modern podcasting app go to modern podcast apps dot com uh that's a whole decentralized network dude like it's

and probably in better shape than these young bucks in the military uh yeah dude you are for sure i'm just gonna assume that i haven't seen your body in real life but last week i was talking about the military uh like 68 percent in the military being overweight and you got like 27 percent of the navy are obese like that's some bad shit dude like that's terrible we gotta fix that man if you're in the military fix yourself please uh this last one from joel w uh he says and just for a shrinking tumor boost for my father my father with the cancer with the shrinking boot with the shrinking tumors uh thank you joel w and now as the french say it is time for the boost you're my guy joel you're my guy thank you to all those people who saw value in the show now don't go anywhere that's not the end we're not done with the show yet i'm still talking about value for value and we're talking about innovation in the ecosystem of it okay america plus is just one aspect of value for value this entire thing is so much bigger than one podcaster than one brand um and i just want to encourage you to just look into it just try to get into it go to value for value dot info for more info and it's it's a really nice breakdown of what the system is and how much better it is than any locked in subscription service plan you know like value for value is better than youtube memberships value for value is better than netflix subscription a month you know that's what i think value for value is the future of engaging with the content that you want to consume and and support you know there's already so many patreons and so many gofundme's about help us make our short film help us make our thing help us make our animated thing help us do this help us make this help us make that and those things are just truly unsustainable and value for value is a system that that puts the responsibility in your hand to bring the value and so it's my goal to continue to bring the conversations and to bring the honesty of where i'm at with the things that i believe in you know so so i don't really have too much clips today i i was just i wasn't in my head but i was just feeling in my head you know i was just i'm just thinking about how to deal with certain things and i'm i'm trying to ponder what the right path is for myself and you know that's why i have a podcast so i can express myself in these things and these thoughts and that's value man i mean i think that's valuable um even though i don't listen to too many podcasts like this one um that's just because i think i'm unique man i think i believe that my personality and the things that i'm interested in i believe those combined bring value to something at least i think so i i want them to um and i'm willing to listen to everyone i'm i'm willing to take in all the data i'm willing to take in all the advice man so just not like it's not set in stone for me you know it's what is set in stone is that i'm podcasting and i'm doing value for value forever but what's not set in stone are my ways are how i approach things you know every episode is an experiment that's really how i approach it dude i'm trying to do a bunch of new stuff with with the video um and i'm trying to figure out like what's the like adam curry says a podcast is an mp3 in an rss feed okay i can accept that but now i'm doing video and i'm trying to do value for value but i can't send bitcoin through twitter yet and it's like like you can't really do that like twitter's not podcasting 2.0 twitter is not value for value but i feel like it can be extended into it so there's this totally different realm that i'm trying to learn and you know the whole thing's evolving the whole show is evolving and it's scary and it's wild and we're moving into phase two soon and you know at the end of magic mushroom fun time you know i know what i want to manifest i know what where i want to be at by the time i release magic mushroom fun time i know where i want to be at and this podcast is just a simple documentation of of that of that process man you're going to be able to look back at what's going on here and say holy shit col just did that col really did what he said he would do that's been the intention all along so magic mushroom fun time is just one marker on that list um on that roadmap of of making things and and doing stuff and being a podcaster who makes movies man like that's the real that's the innovative thing that i got that's that's that's what i have to offer or at least that's what i think i have to offer and i'm looking for more i'm looking for more value i'm looking to give more value i'm looking to to just be known as an honest person dude and if you want to engage with that value feed feedback loop please do man please do like when it comes to the podcast like i want to i'm trying to figure out how i can do the video as a podcast or as as an rss feed you know like i want to be able to set up bitcoin directly to the video so while you're watching it there's just an option to just send bitcoin like that's the real thing dude like that's what i want and i want to be in control of that but i can't really self-host it so there's these things that need to change and there's these trade-offs that need to happen and where i put the content and how i talk about things and and how consistently i am with certain words so i'm talking more about value for value every single episode now just so just to get the word out man like i need to get the word out like if i can be the value for value guy then that'd be nice but i want more people to do value for value i want to be i want to be someone who just encourages everyone to do value for value like like joe rogan told everyone to told everyone to do a podcast i'm going to tell everyone to do value for value like start using value for value you just start using value for value have you heard of value for value no one else is doing that you know like i i got to make it mainstream you know like that's my mission right now i got to i got to expand the podcast and make value for value mainstream while i make my movies dude like this is it this is it man i feel confident on this path i feel confident and my big dreams my big hollywood dreams i'm making a movie of ben afleck and somehow doing it somehow using value for value with him or somehow um just having it be known just making something with someone with a healthy system like that's what i want and so it'd be crazy if i could interview ben afleck and he's like yeah get me in on the value and i got ben afleck's value split like that'd be crazy you know like who likes bitcoin in hollywood come at me america plus like let's go dude like i'm trying to get connected here like i know there's people in hollywood who like bitcoin like i know there's people who are who are into this like step up like let's do it let's make a movie let's do more with value for value in bitcoin and cinema let's go for it so i'm opening myself up to that to those types of opportunities and to just also travel like i'm definitely traveling more at the end of all this um honestly i'm looking for 2024 to change my life i'm looking for the year 2024 to be the most positive and eventful year of my life so far like i just want to travel more i want to make more money i want to meet more people i want to tell more stories i want to just be more whatever i'm doing right now i want to be more of it because i feel good right now man i feel good i don't i don't feel too stressed you know whatever stresses i have you know it's just like bullshit stresses you know it's like it's like work stuff like work drama kitchen drama with chef whatever bullshit it doesn't that doesn't matter and then like the other stress is what money okay but like i've been okay so far so like we'll just keep on letting that go by so not really stress and i can like i choose my energy i choose the energy that i put out and right now i choose to put out gratefulness i choose to put out gratitude and thankfulness and it's leading to more things dude it's leading to more things and there's more value to be gained there's more value to be given um what that looks like we'll see man like i got a lot of big ideas a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot of big ideas um but i gotta stick with the movies i gotta stick with it so somehow somehow movies in value for value value for value cinema somehow some way it's gonna happen what do you think about that do you think that's interesting i would love to hear your thoughts on that i would love to hear your thoughts on what you think about raw milk do you think it's healthy for you do you think anything in its raw form is healthy um just chime in man like i want to hear
