The Reason Why Podcasts Are Filling Up With Ads | Plus Duolingo, Standing Splits & Dodgy Science
Finally back out in the park again and we covered a whooollllle lot of topics.
In Episode #392 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: how Juan got reverse charged for a free trial, more ads than content in some podcasts, how you can get a cockpunch NFT from Juan, why I want to be like the villain in Jackie Chan's 'Legend of The Drunken Master', Massimo Kokhno & Mihaela Karkia, an obsession with water and the crappy science we are trying to avoid.
As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!

00:00:03,085 --> 00:00:08,425
Oh, oh, oh, Mere Mortalites.
Welcome back to an edition
2
00:00:08,425 --> 00:00:10,259
of the outdoors meanderings.
We haven't done
3
00:00:10,259 --> 00:00:12,554
one of these in a while,
and that is because I,
4
00:00:12,554 --> 00:00:15,515
Juan over here has now been
just a little bit over a month
5
00:00:15,515 --> 00:00:18,434
since having a little baby girl
come into my life and son
6
00:00:18,434 --> 00:00:20,310
finally get out and about.
We got Kyrin on the other side
7
00:00:20,310 --> 00:00:24,733
as well. Kyrin here. Hello.
Today is the 11th of June 2023.
8
00:00:24,733 --> 00:00:26,192
And so we come to you
at the moment
9
00:00:26,192 --> 00:00:28,986
outdoors in the Brisbane
Southbank area. For those of you
10
00:00:28,986 --> 00:00:31,280
who know the Brisbane area,
if you don't, if you are
11
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,323
somewhere else in the world
or somewhere else in Australia,
12
00:00:33,323 --> 00:00:35,951
it's a beautiful space.
Here in the Brisbane
13
00:00:35,951 --> 00:00:38,496
near the city, it's.
Sunny right by the river.
14
00:00:38,496 --> 00:00:40,749
Bottom trees. We've seen people
walking about, people
15
00:00:40,749 --> 00:00:43,835
sort of peering at us. We often
I get often now
16
00:00:43,835 --> 00:00:46,212
messages with people will
share with me, Hey,
17
00:00:46,212 --> 00:00:48,715
I saw you doing the podcast.
I didn't stop. I just
18
00:00:48,715 --> 00:00:50,216
I didn't want interrupt you.
Although we've had
19
00:00:50,216 --> 00:00:51,634
that in the past,
we've also had security
20
00:00:51,634 --> 00:00:53,677
interrupters, so who knows
what's going to happen
21
00:00:53,677 --> 00:00:56,097
with us today. But I'm going
to kick this off in Meanderings.
22
00:00:56,097 --> 00:00:57,765
There's a bit of a chance
for us to just discuss
23
00:00:57,765 --> 00:01:00,225
what's been happening,
what's been on our mind,
24
00:01:00,225 --> 00:01:03,521
what's important and what's not.
And I've got a good one for you.
25
00:01:03,521 --> 00:01:07,400
Comes in the word Duolingo
in some languages. Now I've been
26
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,736
scamming Duolingo
over the last few months.
27
00:01:10,736 --> 00:01:14,364
Scamming? Well, let's just say
taking advantage. I mean, take
28
00:01:14,364 --> 00:01:17,326
advantage of them.
And you've been selling your gems
29
00:01:17,326 --> 00:01:20,204
on the black market Not,
not, not, not anything
30
00:01:20,204 --> 00:01:23,082
as complex as this.
It's purely Duolingo
31
00:01:23,082 --> 00:01:24,709
every now and again
will give you, Hey,
32
00:01:24,709 --> 00:01:27,420
would you like a free trial
of 14 days of super
33
00:01:27,420 --> 00:01:30,548
duelling, super. Yeah.
Duolingo makes for me at least
34
00:01:30,548 --> 00:01:34,010
you said by the phone
it's unlimited hot so I can go
35
00:01:34,010 --> 00:01:37,055
as many times. I want enough
as many failures as I want to Go
36
00:01:37,055 --> 00:01:40,016
on, take on. I don't have to use
Jewel's systems.
37
00:01:40,016 --> 00:01:43,602
I don't have to pay for
using special training
38
00:01:43,602 --> 00:01:46,855
or extra stories
or legendary training.
39
00:01:46,855 --> 00:01:50,109
Right. Awesome. Now, often
with the free trial. 14 days.
40
00:01:50,109 --> 00:01:52,403
Sorry, what I've been doing
for the last few months.
41
00:01:52,403 --> 00:01:55,281
I'll get the 14 day free trial.
I'll cancel it straight away.
42
00:01:55,281 --> 00:01:57,909
And the subscription with Apple,
I'll get the free 14 days.
43
00:01:57,909 --> 00:02:01,745
Awesome. Well, not
until last week. You got burnt.
44
00:02:01,745 --> 00:02:04,581
You forgot. So last week?
No, not that I forgot.
45
00:02:04,581 --> 00:02:08,002
So last week that was pulled.
The sneaky site. Once again
46
00:02:08,002 --> 00:02:11,171
I was having a bit of a game
of Duolingo and as per usual
47
00:02:11,171 --> 00:02:13,800
with the families of one,
sometimes I was
48
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,801
trying to do one lesson
like my first lesson of the day,
49
00:02:15,801 --> 00:02:18,429
and I got all five hearts wrong,
smashed it out,
50
00:02:18,429 --> 00:02:20,556
which essentially meant
I could not do any more lessons
51
00:02:20,556 --> 00:02:23,725
for a while unless I went
and took some practice.
52
00:02:23,725 --> 00:02:27,312
But I was a bit agitated.
I knew, hey, I wanted to
53
00:02:27,312 --> 00:02:29,566
get this lesson done. I was
three less like
54
00:02:29,566 --> 00:02:31,276
three questions away
from completing it
55
00:02:31,276 --> 00:02:34,611
and doing a few more.
Come on now. So I saw the button
56
00:02:34,611 --> 00:02:38,116
that said,
Hey, free super Duolingo. I went,
57
00:02:38,116 --> 00:02:41,161
Of course that's what I want.
Clicked it as per usual.
58
00:02:41,161 --> 00:02:44,330
Now silly me that this is
definitely on me, but they got me
59
00:02:44,330 --> 00:02:49,836
in the Duolingo because it didn't
say 14 day free trial. Right?
60
00:02:49,836 --> 00:02:52,504
There's my first mistake.
They kind of sneakily
61
00:02:52,504 --> 00:02:55,258
removed the 14 day free trial.
It just looked exactly
62
00:02:55,258 --> 00:02:57,968
as I've been using the possible
without that little, you know,
63
00:02:57,968 --> 00:03:01,264
extra detail, which look,
it's not tiny, but I
64
00:03:01,264 --> 00:03:03,265
should have seen it.
I didn't call you. Infuriated
65
00:03:03,265 --> 00:03:06,769
by missing out on this lesson.
And so I went through that step
66
00:03:06,769 --> 00:03:09,521
and then even go myself
even hotter,
67
00:03:09,521 --> 00:03:11,774
because you can choose
to pay Duolingo monthly
68
00:03:11,774 --> 00:03:14,568
or yearly. I went does not
exclude the yearly,
69
00:03:14,568 --> 00:03:17,405
but just like the yearly
took the yearly button,
70
00:03:17,405 --> 00:03:19,782
click, click, submitted it.
I mean, that's all good.
71
00:03:19,782 --> 00:03:21,909
Brilliant. So I submitted it.
Finish off the lesson
72
00:03:21,909 --> 00:03:25,580
and I really feeling good. Yeah.
And then I something was itching
73
00:03:25,580 --> 00:03:28,540
at the back of my neck.
I know what I'll do I'll get rid
74
00:03:28,540 --> 00:03:30,293
of the Duolingo straight away.
I can go to the Apple
75
00:03:30,293 --> 00:03:34,004
subscription, get rid of it.
And then I read subscription ends
76
00:03:34,004 --> 00:03:39,718
5th of June 2023. 23. Sorry.
Wait a minute. What's this?
77
00:03:39,718 --> 00:03:44,681
What do you mean, that? 2024.
I won't hold the moment
78
00:03:44,681 --> 00:03:48,853
that this is give me.
Even then I thought, Oh, wow,
79
00:03:48,853 --> 00:03:52,899
I got away with it. I got a whole
year's free. And then the
80
00:03:52,899 --> 00:03:55,776
usual familiar
little notification come through
81
00:03:55,776 --> 00:04:00,323
my bank, $123 deducted from
your account. I went,
82
00:04:00,323 --> 00:04:05,536
Damn, they got me. They go.
So now I'm the grateful, proud,
83
00:04:05,536 --> 00:04:08,622
proud owner of a year
subscription of Duolingo,
84
00:04:08,622 --> 00:04:13,127
which look, it has prompted me to
use it more to a sense you know,
85
00:04:13,127 --> 00:04:18,091
I look at it in that relation,
so it's positive to see that, but
86
00:04:18,091 --> 00:04:20,050
well done, Duolingo.
You got me there. And probably
87
00:04:20,050 --> 00:04:21,761
all the others
who have been scamming
88
00:04:21,761 --> 00:04:23,512
with the 14 day free
trial and escaping.
89
00:04:23,512 --> 00:04:25,305
I reckon they've got to
they must have a system
90
00:04:25,305 --> 00:04:26,723
where it's Yeah,
they'll let you do it
91
00:04:26,723 --> 00:04:28,184
two or three times
and then they'll, they'll
92
00:04:28,184 --> 00:04:30,269
pull it up
and get you without that.
93
00:04:30,269 --> 00:04:32,230
Well they've probably you know,
someone's
94
00:04:32,230 --> 00:04:34,690
been selling on your data
that you're, you've had a baby
95
00:04:34,690 --> 00:04:36,733
recently so I
Okay well he's probably
96
00:04:36,733 --> 00:04:39,946
a little bit distracted
maybe. Oh yeah. We can maybe
97
00:04:39,946 --> 00:04:42,615
get away with this, you know,
optimise algorithms
98
00:04:42,615 --> 00:04:44,951
for getting money out.
To be fair,
99
00:04:44,951 --> 00:04:48,913
you have used it a lot
and I was on the border point.
100
00:04:48,913 --> 00:04:50,915
I use this one
called Spanish dict
101
00:04:50,915 --> 00:04:55,836
DICT not Spanish dick.
Don't go there. And Spanish
102
00:04:55,836 --> 00:04:58,423
dict was amazing for me
in learning Spanish
103
00:04:58,423 --> 00:05:00,466
because it had probably
one of the best
104
00:05:00,466 --> 00:05:02,884
translation services I'd seen.
And in particular
105
00:05:02,884 --> 00:05:05,887
for individual words, you type
an individual word in,
106
00:05:05,887 --> 00:05:08,016
but whether it be
English or Spanish
107
00:05:08,016 --> 00:05:12,103
and it would come up with
the translations and just
108
00:05:12,103 --> 00:05:15,439
a myriad of subtle
different translations
109
00:05:15,439 --> 00:05:17,317
of how it could be.
And you'd get this
110
00:05:17,317 --> 00:05:19,110
and then it would have,
you know, example
111
00:05:19,110 --> 00:05:23,197
sentences underneath. They had
an actual Spanish speaker
112
00:05:23,197 --> 00:05:25,615
saying the word,
pronouncing it correctly.
113
00:05:25,615 --> 00:05:27,285
Details.
Amazing, amazing service.
114
00:05:27,285 --> 00:05:30,038
I used it for free for
a long, long time.
115
00:05:30,038 --> 00:05:34,208
Then it started doing
some stuff where if you used to
116
00:05:34,208 --> 00:05:36,084
five searches within a month
or something
117
00:05:36,084 --> 00:05:38,713
like it started saying
like, Hey, can you pay?
118
00:05:38,713 --> 00:05:42,466
Or you have to enable ads
because I had ad blocker on who
119
00:05:42,466 --> 00:05:46,428
and it was around this time
where I was kind of stepping away
120
00:05:46,428 --> 00:05:49,057
from my Spanish learning.
So I wasn't using it
121
00:05:49,057 --> 00:05:51,684
as much and I went,
you know, I can kind of
122
00:05:51,684 --> 00:05:54,394
I don't need this
as much as I used to,
123
00:05:54,394 --> 00:05:56,980
but I ended up just being like,
Man, I've got so much
124
00:05:56,980 --> 00:05:59,233
value from this. And you know,
the value for value
125
00:05:59,233 --> 00:06:02,235
kind of lifestyle
made me just go, I screw it,
126
00:06:02,235 --> 00:06:04,237
I'm going to pay for this
even though I won't use it.
127
00:06:04,237 --> 00:06:07,992
So well, I did that and yeah,
I felt good about it. So yeah.
128
00:06:07,992 --> 00:06:09,951
Look, in the end,
after I calmed down
129
00:06:09,951 --> 00:06:11,745
from the annoyance
of the expectation,
130
00:06:11,745 --> 00:06:14,290
because it's expectation
that makes you annoyed, you know,
131
00:06:14,290 --> 00:06:16,541
I was expecting
for eight, 14 days
132
00:06:16,541 --> 00:06:20,420
for not by $123 again for you,
But look when you reflect on it
133
00:06:20,420 --> 00:06:22,214
and again, the cost over
a whole year
134
00:06:22,214 --> 00:06:23,716
is pretty minimal over
the month of month,
135
00:06:23,716 --> 00:06:26,593
even though I've paid it upfront.
And look, the benefit
136
00:06:26,593 --> 00:06:29,262
I'm probably going to get from
it is an extra 1015
137
00:06:29,262 --> 00:06:32,766
send it out to him for sure.
Now it doesn't lose Focus me in.
138
00:06:32,766 --> 00:06:34,851
Can I get this French?
You know, Duolingo finish
139
00:06:34,851 --> 00:06:39,649
by the end of my play? Yeah.
I'm still pretty far away.
140
00:06:39,649 --> 00:06:41,942
Plus all the stories
and everything. Just skipping
141
00:06:41,942 --> 00:06:44,194
all the legendary. However,
look what we'll see.
142
00:06:44,194 --> 00:06:46,363
We'll see what happens.
Legendary adds a lot.
143
00:06:46,363 --> 00:06:49,908
A lot a lot. So. And and.
But part of it does
144
00:06:49,908 --> 00:06:52,245
help me out as well. You know,
it is helpful to try and do it
145
00:06:52,245 --> 00:06:55,456
without the extra little hint
and tips and the ability to check
146
00:06:55,456 --> 00:06:58,041
when you really want to
and force you to kind of learn.
147
00:06:58,041 --> 00:07:01,129
So I'm look,
undoubtedly it was on me
148
00:07:01,129 --> 00:07:04,257
so I'm not blaming Duolingo,
but beware be wary folks.
149
00:07:04,257 --> 00:07:07,218
I want to pull up on the point
that because I'm going to write
150
00:07:07,218 --> 00:07:10,346
about this at the top. Right.
You just talked about ads
151
00:07:10,346 --> 00:07:13,141
and you know, you
pay for the ads. When you
152
00:07:13,141 --> 00:07:15,935
call out to people
first Tom, Bill, you
153
00:07:15,935 --> 00:07:18,646
write to Tom, Bill, you podcast.
I've really been enjoying.
154
00:07:18,646 --> 00:07:21,983
I guess I've been hearing
that there are some
155
00:07:21,983 --> 00:07:23,985
podcasts out there
which are 12 minutes long
156
00:07:23,985 --> 00:07:26,112
and they have two sets of. Ads.
I get ready for way
157
00:07:26,112 --> 00:07:27,654
watching this,
get ready for way worse,
158
00:07:27,654 --> 00:07:32,492
and this now, Tom is not the
I'm not going to go harsh on him.
159
00:07:32,492 --> 00:07:35,079
I will go on a second person.
So first one, Tom Bilyeu
160
00:07:35,079 --> 00:07:37,372
what podcasts. What's this
podcast called? So Tom
161
00:07:37,372 --> 00:07:39,208
Bilyeu is Impact Theory,
I believe it's called,
162
00:07:39,208 --> 00:07:41,127
and he's got a few others.
He does have a few others
163
00:07:41,127 --> 00:07:44,797
through his wife as well,
and that on an hour
164
00:07:44,797 --> 00:07:46,841
and a half, 2 hours.
But I'm going to say,
165
00:07:46,841 --> 00:07:51,596
dude, that it's scattered
with about 12 ads more 40 nuts.
166
00:07:51,596 --> 00:07:54,557
Sometimes I have to skip six,
7 minutes at the beginning, like
167
00:07:55,725 --> 00:07:58,810
there's no information about
when it should be skipped,
168
00:07:58,810 --> 00:08:00,855
which really irks me. Yeah.
And I'm going
169
00:08:00,855 --> 00:08:02,023
click, click, click,
click, click, click.
170
00:08:02,023 --> 00:08:04,317
Until like, through
just to starting talk day.
171
00:08:04,317 --> 00:08:05,776
That's frustrating.
Now I've started
172
00:08:05,776 --> 00:08:08,696
to see where I go,
Hey, come on now. Like this is
173
00:08:08,696 --> 00:08:11,365
really annoying. He has enabled
an ability
174
00:08:11,365 --> 00:08:14,576
to have ad free podcasts
and I'm going one of the end of
175
00:08:14,576 --> 00:08:18,372
t's a relentless impact theory
which would allow that. I went
176
00:08:18,372 --> 00:08:22,000
freaking fantastic. God leads
I'm getting some uses. Have to
177
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,086
go to the website.
Good. I set it up.
178
00:08:24,086 --> 00:08:27,005
I click on the thing,
sign up with the metamask item.
179
00:08:27,005 --> 00:08:29,591
It recognises
it got a relentless key
180
00:08:29,591 --> 00:08:32,595
and it goes about
you need a high level,
181
00:08:32,595 --> 00:08:36,599
you need a heroic or legendary,
which costs a lot more. Oh, it is
182
00:08:36,599 --> 00:08:38,683
a bit of bullshit.
You actually called it
183
00:08:38,683 --> 00:08:40,894
out here in the answer
that we can do with this
184
00:08:40,894 --> 00:08:42,980
and I've gone to the website to
use it and you've told me
185
00:08:44,148 --> 00:08:47,109
it's pretty dodgy. Like who's
the failure here? The website
186
00:08:47,109 --> 00:08:50,071
or the advertising site? Yeah,
I feel like that is one
187
00:08:50,071 --> 00:08:52,990
of the minimum things
that should be done. Yes.
188
00:08:52,990 --> 00:08:56,369
If you, if you bought into
someone's thing
189
00:08:56,369 --> 00:08:59,205
and we'll just say
NFT project here, if you're
190
00:08:59,205 --> 00:09:02,875
supporting them, I feel ad free
is kind of the bare
191
00:09:02,875 --> 00:09:05,794
that that should be the
page. And it is.
192
00:09:05,794 --> 00:09:09,005
And so a little bit extra.
Content on top of that maybe.
193
00:09:09,005 --> 00:09:11,676
Maybe. Yep. Yep.
Look so that kind of ugly
194
00:09:11,676 --> 00:09:15,554
fine whatever. I'll leave it.
I I'll deal with it.
195
00:09:15,554 --> 00:09:17,974
The one I can't deal with.
I can't believe I'm saying
196
00:09:17,974 --> 00:09:19,267
this is someone
that I really enjoy
197
00:09:19,267 --> 00:09:22,102
reading his books. I read
a ton of his books.
198
00:09:22,102 --> 00:09:24,897
I'm going to do a book review
just recently of his latest one,
199
00:09:24,897 --> 00:09:26,856
Ryan Holiday.
Have you ever listened
200
00:09:26,856 --> 00:09:28,609
to any Ryan Holiday podcast?
I haven't, no.
201
00:09:28,609 --> 00:09:30,068
He's got two podcasts.
Like I'm fairly
202
00:09:30,068 --> 00:09:31,946
sure it's only two.
So the Daily Stoic
203
00:09:31,946 --> 00:09:34,657
and the daily dot, right?
I went on, I found out about the
204
00:09:34,657 --> 00:09:37,868
Daily Dad very recently,
The Daily Stoic. He has
205
00:09:37,868 --> 00:09:40,996
interviews with people and look
they about 40-50 minutes
206
00:09:40,996 --> 00:09:43,874
I think I listened to one
and there was a handful of outs
207
00:09:43,874 --> 00:09:47,253
and these is not just the
ads of him talking.
208
00:09:47,253 --> 00:09:49,212
It's inserted ads
which is even more like,
209
00:09:49,212 --> 00:09:53,259
I hate it. I hate this
busy, normal daily stuff I did,
210
00:09:53,259 --> 00:09:55,385
which are 8 minutes
and I swear to you,
211
00:09:55,385 --> 00:09:57,513
there's about five
ads in it, right? In 12 minutes.
212
00:09:57,513 --> 00:10:00,890
Which is thou one?
I've tried to listen
213
00:10:00,890 --> 00:10:02,934
to a few times, and usually
when I'm driving,
214
00:10:02,934 --> 00:10:06,522
I'll tell you what I.
I find myself. I got Play it,
215
00:10:06,522 --> 00:10:08,231
Skip, skip skips, gives, keeps.
You keep talking.
216
00:10:08,231 --> 00:10:11,443
He starts talking maybe for
about 2 minutes, 3 minutes,
217
00:10:11,443 --> 00:10:15,072
then another ad and I go,
I don't know if I can listen to
218
00:10:15,072 --> 00:10:19,451
this is almost more
ads than it is the main piece.
219
00:10:19,451 --> 00:10:23,205
And then comes the daily that
and I'm sitting you not this
220
00:10:23,205 --> 00:10:25,499
is absolutely true. Sorry.
I mean hey this would be
221
00:10:25,499 --> 00:10:28,543
pretty cool. I like Ryan Holiday.
I like the concepts.
222
00:10:28,543 --> 00:10:30,129
It'd be awesome
to get this applied
223
00:10:30,129 --> 00:10:33,423
to like the bad live
because he's at that
224
00:10:33,423 --> 00:10:36,177
those podcasts episodes
are the lengths of
225
00:10:36,177 --> 00:10:38,763
about 2 minutes to 5 minutes
and they still have
226
00:10:38,763 --> 00:10:41,932
about three ads in them.
Dude, I listen to one
227
00:10:41,932 --> 00:10:44,976
that was 2 minutes
and I really checked it.
228
00:10:44,976 --> 00:10:49,230
It was about 40 seconds,
40 less than 40 seconds of him
229
00:10:49,230 --> 00:10:52,985
saying something about the topic.
The rest of that and an intro
230
00:10:52,985 --> 00:10:57,072
and an outright. I went,
this is look, we've gone bashed
231
00:10:57,072 --> 00:10:59,741
before on YouTube
around posting things that are
232
00:10:59,741 --> 00:11:02,827
you know that that's not deep
thought wasn't good content
233
00:11:02,827 --> 00:11:06,831
what would you put this out there
honestly that those comments
234
00:11:06,831 --> 00:11:08,793
that go into those rails
are better than that
235
00:11:08,793 --> 00:11:10,211
episode from Ryan holiday
I'm calling that out
236
00:11:10,211 --> 00:11:12,712
like that is bullshit.
So I went man,
237
00:11:12,712 --> 00:11:14,923
I really enjoy Ryan
Holiday for his books but that is
238
00:11:14,923 --> 00:11:18,469
that is woeful behaviour
if there's like a paid version
239
00:11:18,469 --> 00:11:21,304
so you don't get that
fine, fine, whatever.
240
00:11:21,304 --> 00:11:24,265
But that made me,
that made me feel like
241
00:11:24,265 --> 00:11:26,686
that made me go, yeah,
that is atrocious
242
00:11:26,686 --> 00:11:30,523
advert behaviour. I cannot wait
for this to go away. Yeah. So
243
00:11:31,774 --> 00:11:35,152
just good transition I suppose.
On to just the general ad market
244
00:11:35,152 --> 00:11:39,365
and podcasting and why, you know,
value for value for me is,
245
00:11:39,365 --> 00:11:42,118
is more of an ethical choice.
But even in terms
246
00:11:42,118 --> 00:11:45,413
of business sense, I think it's
the correct thing to be doing.
247
00:11:45,413 --> 00:11:48,624
If you listen to the conversation
I had with Chris Fisher,
248
00:11:48,624 --> 00:11:51,793
he's kind of in a mixed world.
He does a lot of value for value
249
00:11:51,793 --> 00:11:55,505
and he does advertising.
And basically what's going on at
250
00:11:55,505 --> 00:11:58,591
the moment is all the advertising
is getting sucked
251
00:11:58,591 --> 00:12:00,177
out of podcasting
and it seems to be
252
00:12:00,177 --> 00:12:04,389
go into YouTube and picked up
so that the actual amount
253
00:12:04,389 --> 00:12:09,854
of spend for those those ads.
So what that means is podcasts
254
00:12:09,854 --> 00:12:13,106
who normally rely on,
you know, X amount for that
255
00:12:13,106 --> 00:12:15,067
their model to work
to finance themselves,
256
00:12:15,067 --> 00:12:17,903
they're either going to
have to put more ads in,
257
00:12:17,903 --> 00:12:20,865
which is maybe what's happening
with maybe Ryan Holiday
258
00:12:20,865 --> 00:12:25,326
and Tom Bill you or they're going
to have to, you know,
259
00:12:25,326 --> 00:12:29,123
run lean and mean for a while.
They'll have to start offering
260
00:12:29,123 --> 00:12:31,292
additional services
and maybe start looking more
261
00:12:31,292 --> 00:12:34,253
at monetising
from their that audience.
262
00:12:34,253 --> 00:12:35,504
Now, let's point out
that these people
263
00:12:35,504 --> 00:12:37,673
are not hurting for cash,
not even I mean, this
264
00:12:37,673 --> 00:12:41,469
like probably not. Probably not.
But I don't know. Tom Bill used
265
00:12:41,469 --> 00:12:44,053
his looks like a full
TV set production
266
00:12:44,053 --> 00:12:47,682
that is going on. So it's not
it's not like it's a
267
00:12:47,682 --> 00:12:51,562
quick and dirty, easy podcast.
Minimal costs like we have
268
00:12:51,562 --> 00:12:55,274
He's probably got make up
he's he's got lighting
269
00:12:55,274 --> 00:12:57,777
he's got audio production
video production.
270
00:12:57,777 --> 00:13:00,070
Yeah but that would be
a whole crew behind that stuff.
271
00:13:00,070 --> 00:13:02,280
But that's
because he's doing video
272
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,909
and you know video is just more
but yeah
273
00:13:05,909 --> 00:13:09,580
takes it takes a lot more
then there's some funny
274
00:13:09,580 --> 00:13:14,418
things as well related to just
consuming content
275
00:13:14,418 --> 00:13:17,922
what you can handle,
what you can't handle. You know,
276
00:13:17,922 --> 00:13:21,549
I was using Patreon for a while
listening to an Andreas
277
00:13:21,549 --> 00:13:24,427
Antonopoulos. I had to cancel it.
It just got to the point
278
00:13:24,427 --> 00:13:27,889
where I went back to like,
I cannot justify using this
279
00:13:27,889 --> 00:13:30,809
and this is where I kind
of the better technology wins.
280
00:13:30,809 --> 00:13:35,730
Petrol's not great technology.
I don't like the kind of model
281
00:13:35,730 --> 00:13:38,775
that they use.
And the company itself
282
00:13:38,775 --> 00:13:41,821
gives me some red flags
just like the CEO and dropping
283
00:13:41,821 --> 00:13:46,450
a bit of rating into it. But
it does like he read out
284
00:13:46,450 --> 00:13:49,035
one of my questions
and I was asking him you know
285
00:13:49,035 --> 00:13:51,788
when you look at Bitcoin
and your kind
286
00:13:51,788 --> 00:13:54,041
of convictions around it,
how much of that is based
287
00:13:54,041 --> 00:13:56,626
around the actual technology
and how much of that is based
288
00:13:56,626 --> 00:13:59,046
around the people
and going to meet ups
289
00:13:59,046 --> 00:14:01,673
and whatnot? What do you
think his answer was to that?
290
00:14:02,716 --> 00:14:06,345
Yeah, I would have
said maybe 5050. Yeah.
291
00:14:06,345 --> 00:14:08,847
From what I. Gathered,
he didn't give a ratio,
292
00:14:08,847 --> 00:14:12,976
but he said the majority of it
was from the actual
293
00:14:12,976 --> 00:14:17,230
going to meet ups. It was more
reacting to how other people
294
00:14:17,230 --> 00:14:19,899
are reacting to this. Do they
find it interesting?
295
00:14:19,899 --> 00:14:24,196
Are they getting excited by this?
It's almost it's almost like
296
00:14:24,196 --> 00:14:25,822
the classic thing,
you know, the better
297
00:14:25,822 --> 00:14:28,241
technology will win.
Well, not necessarily.
298
00:14:28,241 --> 00:14:31,327
It's not it's not guaranteed
that it will will be.
299
00:14:31,327 --> 00:14:35,206
Then it's more how people are
reacting to it. So that's
300
00:14:35,206 --> 00:14:37,208
that's kind of why
I go to the Bitcoin
301
00:14:37,208 --> 00:14:40,336
meet ups, to be honest.
Why I kind of spend so much time
302
00:14:40,336 --> 00:14:43,548
in the podcasting
value for value out as well.
303
00:14:43,548 --> 00:14:46,885
It's really just to see
what are the people interested
304
00:14:46,885 --> 00:14:49,304
and what are they excited about
and that's some really cool,
305
00:14:49,304 --> 00:14:51,974
exciting things. But well,
I'm going to do
306
00:14:51,974 --> 00:14:53,767
the next meanderings.
I'll think I'll talk a.
307
00:14:53,767 --> 00:14:55,436
Little bit about them.
Well, let's
308
00:14:55,436 --> 00:14:58,272
talk about something else
that's quite exciting to
309
00:14:58,272 --> 00:15:00,524
maybe not Peter,
but definitely to me.
310
00:15:00,524 --> 00:15:03,777
Oh God, dude.
I'm the proud winner
311
00:15:03,777 --> 00:15:08,032
of the UCF number four.
I just went, What? You know what
312
00:15:08,032 --> 00:15:15,080
you see at four central.
Universal, coordinated farting
313
00:15:15,163 --> 00:15:17,917
But for those at home who have a
have not listened to me
314
00:15:17,917 --> 00:15:20,168
talk about cook punch
from Tim Ferriss
315
00:15:20,168 --> 00:15:23,004
it is the ultimate cock
fighting championships and I won
316
00:15:23,004 --> 00:15:26,174
the fourth round
of the big four rounds.
317
00:15:26,174 --> 00:15:28,384
It was a tag team
partnership with
318
00:15:28,384 --> 00:15:30,763
the golden ticket
of the Golden Bulls,
319
00:15:30,763 --> 00:15:33,514
I think we call the
now the Golden Bulls pair
320
00:15:33,514 --> 00:15:35,225
or something like that.
And it was it was, you know,
321
00:15:35,225 --> 00:15:38,562
it went through like heats,
semi-finals, finals.
322
00:15:38,562 --> 00:15:41,023
Now if you haven't
checked out a fool ultimate
323
00:15:41,023 --> 00:15:43,900
cockfighting listenership I think
you should get get
324
00:15:43,900 --> 00:15:46,235
you can go to this Gordon
like so cheatin dude it's
325
00:15:46,235 --> 00:15:48,364
pretty cool in the sense
that they get this one guy
326
00:15:48,364 --> 00:15:50,950
who's awesome at narrating
basically from a chat
327
00:15:50,950 --> 00:15:54,035
GP2 or equivalent
print out of what
328
00:15:54,035 --> 00:15:55,828
the battle goes like.
And he goes, You know
329
00:15:55,828 --> 00:15:58,539
something to the essence
of hockey, say, of the while
330
00:15:58,539 --> 00:16:00,793
cuts off the massive balls
of you know,
331
00:16:00,793 --> 00:16:03,294
twisting the terrible
and he comes over top.
332
00:16:03,294 --> 00:16:05,589
So you know, it's
quite cool in the end
333
00:16:05,589 --> 00:16:08,759
the winnings is a cut
short is another NFT
334
00:16:08,759 --> 00:16:11,886
it's a cock punch nifty
which is valid at whatever
335
00:16:11,886 --> 00:16:14,597
might be at the moment,
probably 600 or $100 trillion.
336
00:16:14,597 --> 00:16:17,058
And it's not yet in my wallet,
but it's almost it's
337
00:16:17,058 --> 00:16:20,312
going to get in. But I won't
I necessarily
338
00:16:20,312 --> 00:16:22,605
need it myself, like
just another x one font.
339
00:16:22,605 --> 00:16:27,193
Cool. Awesome enough.
But I thought so the reason that
340
00:16:27,193 --> 00:16:29,153
that particular round happened
was when cock
341
00:16:29,153 --> 00:16:31,490
fighting number four
is someone actually sponsored it.
342
00:16:31,490 --> 00:16:36,202
It was a guy who's creating
Moomba designed E-Scooters
343
00:16:36,202 --> 00:16:37,663
over in the US.
Oh that's pretty cool
344
00:16:37,663 --> 00:16:39,373
because he can
they can run sponsorships
345
00:16:39,373 --> 00:16:42,543
in the cock bunch
and of the latest
346
00:16:42,543 --> 00:16:44,836
used to have like 200
or 300 people in discord
347
00:16:44,836 --> 00:16:47,798
the two team champions discord
and Tim called it out
348
00:16:47,798 --> 00:16:49,883
for something to go and jump in
when he was having
349
00:16:49,883 --> 00:16:52,010
the conversation
and it ballooned to 200
350
00:16:52,010 --> 00:16:54,971
700 people.
Oh, that's pretty cool. I went,
351
00:16:54,971 --> 00:16:57,140
I wonder
and I wanted to voice out
352
00:16:57,140 --> 00:16:59,851
loud to you in the podcast,
Do you think
353
00:16:59,851 --> 00:17:03,105
that I should sponsor
the very next one, Ultimate Cock
354
00:17:03,105 --> 00:17:05,441
Fighting number five?
But I will give this
355
00:17:05,441 --> 00:17:09,611
nifty back away. Not through the
winner, though. Now, I didn't
356
00:17:09,611 --> 00:17:11,739
want to go down the path
to go all the winner
357
00:17:11,739 --> 00:17:14,615
Get this one.
No, What I want to do is
358
00:17:14,615 --> 00:17:16,535
from from my perspective,
everybody who enters
359
00:17:16,535 --> 00:17:18,703
for this particular
next round of it that they do
360
00:17:18,703 --> 00:17:20,955
and that they get quite
a few people doing it.
361
00:17:20,955 --> 00:17:23,375
If you go and follow
us, subscribe to us,
362
00:17:23,375 --> 00:17:26,211
maybe YouTube.
I'll post a YouTube, YouTube
363
00:17:26,211 --> 00:17:28,547
or a few other platforms
or even more.
364
00:17:28,547 --> 00:17:30,590
Go check out our Value
For Value model.
365
00:17:30,590 --> 00:17:32,134
You'll go into the draw
and I'll give it away.
366
00:17:32,134 --> 00:17:34,720
I'll just do a random
kind of how we did for the suits.
367
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,765
Way back in the day I went,
I like that advertising model.
368
00:17:37,765 --> 00:17:38,723
I'm going to
give some money away.
369
00:17:38,723 --> 00:17:41,977
Some of that basically just came
to me for free and how do
370
00:17:41,977 --> 00:17:44,645
I give it away? And also that
it will value to us.
371
00:17:44,645 --> 00:17:45,605
What are your thoughts
around that?
372
00:17:45,605 --> 00:17:49,067
Would that be helpful? What your
if anything, it'll just prove
373
00:17:49,067 --> 00:17:53,739
to yourself that you're not in it
for the financial gains
374
00:17:53,739 --> 00:17:56,491
of the Clickfunnels,
which is very much getting close
375
00:17:56,491 --> 00:18:00,578
to the me me type of,
of side of, of NFT thing.
376
00:18:00,578 --> 00:18:03,457
So yeah, man, Yeah.
You bet you'd be fine
377
00:18:03,457 --> 00:18:07,086
if I, if I collated the.
Wants to do whatever you want to.
378
00:18:07,086 --> 00:18:11,089
So I'm looking at mortal.
Partnership, you can, you can do
379
00:18:11,089 --> 00:18:12,758
what you feel as.
I'm looking at it and so
380
00:18:12,758 --> 00:18:14,634
I will send through a message
through this code
381
00:18:14,634 --> 00:18:16,470
for the team to bear.
So, you know, if you
382
00:18:16,470 --> 00:18:20,098
if you want to check that out,
what is it worth. Thinking about
383
00:18:20,098 --> 00:18:21,974
what you actually
want them to do? So
384
00:18:23,018 --> 00:18:24,644
that might be something
we should talk about. Yeah.
385
00:18:24,644 --> 00:18:26,313
Look, we'll
probably we'll look back
386
00:18:26,313 --> 00:18:27,815
at the end of this podcast
when we talk through
387
00:18:27,815 --> 00:18:29,607
of how you can support us
and you'll see
388
00:18:29,607 --> 00:18:32,486
probably where it will
heavily lie what we're asking
389
00:18:32,486 --> 00:18:35,530
for people.
Yeah, for sure. For sure. Well,
390
00:18:35,530 --> 00:18:39,034
one of the things I've been doing
recently was if you checked out
391
00:18:39,034 --> 00:18:41,577
the monthly goals, you know,
I'd been doing a bunch of pistol
392
00:18:41,577 --> 00:18:44,539
squats, dragon squats,
one legged stuff,
393
00:18:44,539 --> 00:18:47,500
fucking tiger, crane man.
Got to live up to
394
00:18:47,500 --> 00:18:50,211
my One-Punch man moniker here.
So everything I do
395
00:18:50,211 --> 00:18:55,843
from now on is just one
handed, one arms every And
396
00:18:56,050 --> 00:18:58,679
what I was after that happened,
I was like, okay, what's
397
00:18:58,679 --> 00:19:01,640
another kind of leg based thing?
Because I do a lot
398
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,433
of handstands, but
you can only do so much
399
00:19:04,433 --> 00:19:07,479
handstands per possession.
And I do like to add
400
00:19:07,479 --> 00:19:10,941
some supplementary work,
whether it be abs, whether it
401
00:19:10,941 --> 00:19:14,944
be callisthenics, whether it be
hip flexors or things like that.
402
00:19:14,944 --> 00:19:18,448
Yeah. And I was thinking,
okay, well,
403
00:19:18,448 --> 00:19:20,241
what can I do for legs?
I don't particularly
404
00:19:20,241 --> 00:19:22,326
like lifting weights,
so I don't really want to
405
00:19:22,326 --> 00:19:25,204
do squats or deadlifts
or anything like that. What,
406
00:19:25,204 --> 00:19:28,750
what's an ambition and goal?
And I went, Yeah, I'd really like
407
00:19:28,750 --> 00:19:30,794
to get the standing split.
I think that would just be
408
00:19:30,794 --> 00:19:35,673
a fucking cool thing to do.
So I've started doing a bunch of
409
00:19:36,799 --> 00:19:40,429
kind of ballet type moves, really
just working on the hip flexes.
410
00:19:40,429 --> 00:19:43,265
I might just be super
clear as well for people
411
00:19:43,265 --> 00:19:45,017
because what
first came into my mind,
412
00:19:45,017 --> 00:19:48,353
but I know it's not that it's not
going up into a handstand
413
00:19:48,353 --> 00:19:50,521
and just opening your legs.
You're talking,
414
00:19:50,521 --> 00:19:52,857
going into my hands
and not knowing how you'd be
415
00:19:52,857 --> 00:19:56,278
on the ground doing a split.
But in the handstand. No, no, no,
416
00:19:56,278 --> 00:19:58,238
not even handstand related.
I'm just talking about
417
00:19:58,238 --> 00:20:01,657
one leg is on the ground
and my other leg is is on. Okay,
418
00:20:01,657 --> 00:20:04,702
so I've got a completely
ending split. I should have
419
00:20:04,702 --> 00:20:09,290
sort of elaborated. Thank you
for confounding. So to do that,
420
00:20:09,290 --> 00:20:11,210
a lot of ballet type
movements, you know,
421
00:20:11,210 --> 00:20:14,671
kicking legs off, hooking
your hand on your knee,
422
00:20:14,671 --> 00:20:17,924
really just trying to
get your hips flexes.
423
00:20:17,924 --> 00:20:19,926
While holding your leg, like
are you allowed to do it
424
00:20:19,926 --> 00:20:21,636
while holding a leg? Well, that's
how you just
425
00:20:21,636 --> 00:20:24,597
kind of start, I guess.
But the ultimate goal
426
00:20:24,597 --> 00:20:26,349
is unassisted.
The outstanding goal
427
00:20:26,349 --> 00:20:29,769
is there's this movie
I want to watch. I'm pretty sure
428
00:20:29,769 --> 00:20:32,521
it was the the Drunken Master
or something like that.
429
00:20:32,521 --> 00:20:35,442
It was a Jackie Chan movie.
He's a drunken master, you know,
430
00:20:35,442 --> 00:20:37,318
he drinks from his gourd,
gets all fucked up,
431
00:20:37,318 --> 00:20:39,278
and then he fights in this really
crazy thing. I've actually
432
00:20:39,278 --> 00:20:41,198
I haven't seen it,
but I've seen, like,
433
00:20:41,198 --> 00:20:43,866
real. Really. It's. It's great.
Awesome movie.
434
00:20:43,866 --> 00:20:45,911
And one of the boss
characters he fights
435
00:20:45,911 --> 00:20:49,205
is this dude in a suit
and he walks in and then he just
436
00:20:49,205 --> 00:20:51,791
straight up, you know, starts
lifting his leg and his leg
437
00:20:51,791 --> 00:20:55,378
just keeps going up and up
until he is. Imagine doing
438
00:20:55,378 --> 00:20:59,967
a side split so your legs are
going out. Not in front the back,
439
00:20:59,967 --> 00:21:03,010
but at the sides.
And imagine that.
440
00:21:03,010 --> 00:21:06,097
But turn 90 degrees. So one foot
is on the ground,
441
00:21:06,097 --> 00:21:07,848
the other is up.
And then his body is
442
00:21:07,848 --> 00:21:09,851
is kind of horizontal.
His torso is it's an.
443
00:21:09,851 --> 00:21:12,645
Impressive set of moves.
Fucking gangster that I saw
444
00:21:12,645 --> 00:21:15,941
about ages ago. I was like. Whoa,
do you see that shit? Amazing.
445
00:21:15,941 --> 00:21:20,028
So kind of something like that.
I'll settle for one where it's
446
00:21:20,028 --> 00:21:23,115
more like the standing
front version. So my foot
447
00:21:23,115 --> 00:21:25,866
is facing forward and I'm kind of
dragging the other up.
448
00:21:25,866 --> 00:21:28,744
But to do this, I was like, okay,
I need to start
449
00:21:28,744 --> 00:21:31,205
doing some research.
And I was also starting
450
00:21:31,205 --> 00:21:34,334
to do some plant work.
I need to know
451
00:21:34,334 --> 00:21:37,796
how to do the plants better.
I haven't really research this.
452
00:21:37,796 --> 00:21:40,965
There are some absolute.
Beasts on YouTube, these kind of
453
00:21:40,965 --> 00:21:44,760
unknown, unnamed. They're not
super popular, so I haven't
454
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:49,516
spent the time to build up
build up an audience to,
455
00:21:49,516 --> 00:21:52,644
you know, edit their videos
properly to get a nice camera
456
00:21:52,644 --> 00:21:55,105
for the beasts.
But there's this one guy,
457
00:21:55,105 --> 00:22:00,861
Massimo Koechner. Cormac hates.
And ah, okay, the cock theme.
458
00:22:00,861 --> 00:22:03,363
The cops coming.
I saw all. That today.
459
00:22:03,363 --> 00:22:08,076
And this. Dude has the
most ridiculous leg workouts
460
00:22:08,076 --> 00:22:10,828
I've ever seen. Do you know what
a nautical is? Have you done
461
00:22:10,828 --> 00:22:13,539
them before? Is that the one
for the hamstring? Yes.
462
00:22:13,539 --> 00:22:16,667
So you basically lock your legs
in your shins
463
00:22:16,667 --> 00:22:18,502
touching the ground.
You lock your ankles
464
00:22:18,502 --> 00:22:20,087
in under something
and you're basically
465
00:22:20,087 --> 00:22:22,214
lowering your torso down
to the to the ground.
466
00:22:22,214 --> 00:22:23,924
So it's really working
on your hamstrings
467
00:22:23,924 --> 00:22:27,346
incredibly hard. I can't even do
the negative. It's it
468
00:22:27,346 --> 00:22:30,307
and let alone going back up,
this guy is doing
469
00:22:30,307 --> 00:22:34,353
kind of reps on those,
but he'll be strapping his legs
470
00:22:34,353 --> 00:22:38,105
in kind of vertically. So he is
doing it from
471
00:22:38,105 --> 00:22:40,442
kind of a dead hang, almost a
handstand position,
472
00:22:40,442 --> 00:22:42,027
but his legs are
locked into something
473
00:22:42,027 --> 00:22:45,489
and then he's lifting all the way
up against gravity to get up.
474
00:22:45,489 --> 00:22:46,990
And, you know, just this
and it's just.
475
00:22:46,990 --> 00:22:50,951
A skinny Italian guy and it
you know, it's the classic kind
476
00:22:50,951 --> 00:22:54,998
of callisthenics, body type,
shredded but not
477
00:22:54,998 --> 00:22:58,210
jacked, I guess, is maybe how you
would say that. So he doesn't
478
00:22:58,210 --> 00:23:03,882
just have the bulk of muscle.
Another chick, Mihaela Katya,
479
00:23:03,882 --> 00:23:07,094
and I think she is
just definitely Eastern European.
480
00:23:07,094 --> 00:23:13,474
So crazy crazy handstand.
Just, you know, just so flexible,
481
00:23:13,474 --> 00:23:18,730
so strong as well. Skinny as hell
and just looking at them
482
00:23:18,730 --> 00:23:20,690
and going,
I can't ever see myself
483
00:23:20,690 --> 00:23:24,736
getting to this level.
I cannot ever do this. But what
484
00:23:24,736 --> 00:23:27,489
I wanted to ask you
though, was for research,
485
00:23:27,489 --> 00:23:30,534
for form. So you're
starting a kind of new exercise.
486
00:23:30,534 --> 00:23:33,494
You started doing the CrossFit,
what, two years ago?
487
00:23:33,494 --> 00:23:36,123
Something like that.
What do you do if you're
488
00:23:36,123 --> 00:23:40,919
looking to start
researching a new a new activity,
489
00:23:40,919 --> 00:23:44,338
I guess, or a new something.
Something new that's physical.
490
00:23:44,338 --> 00:23:48,676
How do you know? Okay. What form
should I be following? How often
491
00:23:48,676 --> 00:23:51,762
should I roughly be doing this?
What level am I coming in?
492
00:23:51,762 --> 00:23:53,557
What? What? What do you do?
You have any rules of thumb
493
00:23:53,557 --> 00:23:56,684
for her research? There was one
that I heard,
494
00:23:57,935 --> 00:23:59,770
which I think I kind of
follow in a way,
495
00:23:59,770 --> 00:24:02,441
or at least a lead in
from this way, which is
496
00:24:02,441 --> 00:24:03,858
I wanna make sure
I get this right. I'm pretty sure
497
00:24:03,858 --> 00:24:06,193
it's methods
and many concepts of you.
498
00:24:06,193 --> 00:24:08,571
I believe that that's what
it actually is.
499
00:24:08,571 --> 00:24:11,532
And fundamentally by that is
looking at something
500
00:24:11,532 --> 00:24:13,285
like a new exercise.
Let's just take
501
00:24:13,285 --> 00:24:15,537
here one, the bifocals
and not really looking at
502
00:24:15,537 --> 00:24:18,832
a new exercise, but a squat
in that there is a
503
00:24:18,832 --> 00:24:21,876
truckload of methods
that you could apply to a squat
504
00:24:21,876 --> 00:24:25,713
in the sense of volume,
speed, power,
505
00:24:25,713 --> 00:24:28,842
bar, assisted body way.
All these like you could
506
00:24:28,842 --> 00:24:31,510
I permutations, permutations,
permutations, lots of methods
507
00:24:31,510 --> 00:24:34,597
of doing a squat all the way from
no weight to lots of weight.
508
00:24:34,597 --> 00:24:36,849
And as you said
in all different models.
509
00:24:36,849 --> 00:24:40,769
But the concepts of an exercise
a few right and that could be
510
00:24:40,769 --> 00:24:42,396
you want to call it
the principles of something
511
00:24:42,396 --> 00:24:44,607
of an exercise. You can call it
the concept,
512
00:24:44,607 --> 00:24:47,818
you can call it the idea,
you know, whatever have you
513
00:24:47,818 --> 00:24:49,570
there for you.
And so I would probably
514
00:24:49,570 --> 00:24:54,701
begin the research or the
understanding of the exercise on
515
00:24:54,701 --> 00:24:57,578
what is the concept.
And here in movements,
516
00:24:57,578 --> 00:24:59,079
I specifically movement,
the more I would
517
00:24:59,079 --> 00:25:02,209
probably recommend is it's
the hinges,
518
00:25:02,209 --> 00:25:05,377
the positioning points
even to the fundamentals of it's
519
00:25:05,377 --> 00:25:08,714
there's, there's muscles,
there's joints, there's
520
00:25:08,714 --> 00:25:12,551
tendons, weight. How does it all,
all of them sort of apply in the
521
00:25:12,551 --> 00:25:14,346
particular movement
you're looking to do
522
00:25:14,346 --> 00:25:16,347
or if you try night
specific to optimise,
523
00:25:16,347 --> 00:25:19,058
what does that look like
and then what do those concepts
524
00:25:19,058 --> 00:25:20,852
look like in
it's movement pattern?
525
00:25:20,852 --> 00:25:23,771
So what I mean by this, you know,
there's different methods
526
00:25:23,771 --> 00:25:26,650
in a squat, but if the concept
to a squat around,
527
00:25:26,650 --> 00:25:28,609
let's just look
the 90 degree angle,
528
00:25:28,609 --> 00:25:34,031
they, the concept of
how deep you go into a squat has
529
00:25:34,031 --> 00:25:37,493
very strong dependence
on the reason as to why. So if
530
00:25:37,493 --> 00:25:39,871
the concept for you is
oh I want to do it to meet
531
00:25:39,871 --> 00:25:42,414
a certain requirement
for a competition,
532
00:25:42,414 --> 00:25:44,709
powerlifting competition,
CrossFit competition,
533
00:25:44,709 --> 00:25:47,170
what have you have to go
crease up below?
534
00:25:47,170 --> 00:25:50,507
That is what you're going to do.
Now, the concept of
535
00:25:50,507 --> 00:25:53,218
it being better from a
muscle building perspective
536
00:25:53,218 --> 00:25:55,804
or a joint perspective,
that can be separate, right?
537
00:25:55,804 --> 00:25:57,972
But they're all concepts
around it. However,
538
00:25:57,972 --> 00:26:00,141
if you're looking to do
power output
539
00:26:00,141 --> 00:26:03,185
or you just want to get
speed or something, you know,
540
00:26:03,185 --> 00:26:04,813
sure as hell don't have to go
nine degrees. In fact,
541
00:26:04,813 --> 00:26:07,356
you probably should go
to 45 degrees and just bounce up
542
00:26:07,356 --> 00:26:09,733
out of it as much power. That's
a different concept.
543
00:26:09,733 --> 00:26:13,445
So the methods and can
put me tape between that. But.
544
00:26:13,445 --> 00:26:17,826
Guy Yeah, if it's a new exercise
let's just say like this standing
545
00:26:17,826 --> 00:26:20,953
so standing split basically
I go, okay, well what's,
546
00:26:20,953 --> 00:26:24,249
what's the concept behind it?
Which again comes down to
547
00:26:24,249 --> 00:26:27,335
muscular flexibility.
You know, a few of the other
548
00:26:27,335 --> 00:26:29,837
sort of touch points would go
what enables you
549
00:26:29,837 --> 00:26:32,214
as a concept to do that?
And then the methods you go wild
550
00:26:32,214 --> 00:26:35,384
because you know, if you
if the concept is like, well,
551
00:26:35,384 --> 00:26:39,013
you need to have quite strong
hip flexors or hip abductors,
552
00:26:39,013 --> 00:26:43,434
okay, well, that's as a concept,
it's stronger, not more flexible,
553
00:26:43,434 --> 00:26:46,938
not more powerful,
not more speed, it's stronger,
554
00:26:46,938 --> 00:26:49,691
or maybe it's flexible.
Okay, cool. That's a contact
555
00:26:49,691 --> 00:26:52,234
that you need to optimise. Well,
go and figure out the method
556
00:26:52,234 --> 00:26:53,653
and how the fuck
you want to do it. Then.
557
00:26:53,653 --> 00:26:57,073
Then you can do your research of
how do I what's the methods
558
00:26:57,073 --> 00:26:58,991
that I can do
to make my hip adductor
559
00:26:58,991 --> 00:27:01,243
much more flexible.
You can do this stretch routine
560
00:27:01,243 --> 00:27:02,871
that's routine. You can
hang your balls
561
00:27:02,871 --> 00:27:04,705
of a cliff on a kick.
It's, you know, it's plenty of
562
00:27:04,705 --> 00:27:07,709
different ideas, but then that
goes into the method. So I go
563
00:27:08,710 --> 00:27:12,963
methods of many concept of you.
And that came from a guy
564
00:27:12,963 --> 00:27:15,924
Andrew Human was talking to about
and forgetting his name.
565
00:27:15,924 --> 00:27:18,678
I'll bring it up
while you look it up for me.
566
00:27:18,678 --> 00:27:21,681
I think one of the things is
I need for them.
567
00:27:21,681 --> 00:27:25,184
Andy Galpin And Doctor.
Andy Galpin Brilliant.
568
00:27:25,184 --> 00:27:27,311
One of the things
I need someone to do
569
00:27:27,311 --> 00:27:32,442
if I'm going to listen to them
in a physical sense in terms of
570
00:27:32,442 --> 00:27:34,903
trying to reach a goal,
trying to do a specific movement
571
00:27:34,903 --> 00:27:36,988
or something,
I need them to have done
572
00:27:36,988 --> 00:27:39,365
it themselves.
I need them to prove.
573
00:27:39,365 --> 00:27:43,536
And whether this be via video,
what mostly by video, I guess,
574
00:27:43,536 --> 00:27:46,664
or just by sheer accomplished
accomplishments,
575
00:27:46,664 --> 00:27:50,751
if they're older, i.e.
if it's a coach, you know,
576
00:27:50,751 --> 00:27:54,005
someone who used to be
in the Olympics, you know, I'm
577
00:27:54,005 --> 00:27:56,758
assuming they know
how to do the Iron Cross
578
00:27:56,758 --> 00:28:00,220
or something like that. So I.
I just don't think
579
00:28:00,220 --> 00:28:03,682
I'd ever be able
to listen to the coaches who's
580
00:28:03,682 --> 00:28:05,642
amazing coach,
but he's never played
581
00:28:05,642 --> 00:28:08,603
soccer himself. I just
I don't think I'd be able
582
00:28:08,603 --> 00:28:12,773
to get past that.
That's that barrier,
583
00:28:12,773 --> 00:28:16,236
which I think is kind of
I don't know. I'm not sure
584
00:28:16,236 --> 00:28:17,528
if that's a good
or a bad thing or not,
585
00:28:17,528 --> 00:28:21,115
but for me, it's just I need them
to have proven
586
00:28:21,115 --> 00:28:23,326
that they can do it themselves.
Yeah, I wouldn't say that
587
00:28:23,326 --> 00:28:25,828
they have to say.
To give an example, if,
588
00:28:26,913 --> 00:28:30,040
if I was trying to teach
someone about a squat,
589
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,292
but I've never
really down don squat
590
00:28:32,292 --> 00:28:34,962
because I've done like presence
all the time, I think I'd be able
591
00:28:34,962 --> 00:28:38,633
to impart enough
things to them to learn.
592
00:28:38,633 --> 00:28:40,719
But there is a barrier.
There is something
593
00:28:40,719 --> 00:28:43,930
to be said around the minutia of
when you're doing it,
594
00:28:43,930 --> 00:28:46,641
then learning about the
specifics there. Because I mean,
595
00:28:46,641 --> 00:28:48,183
from fitness perspective
and it might be different
596
00:28:48,183 --> 00:28:51,855
in other practices,
a lot of the studies
597
00:28:51,855 --> 00:28:53,647
of the research of what
actually comes out
598
00:28:53,647 --> 00:28:56,651
is years behind what in practice
is being done.
599
00:28:56,651 --> 00:28:59,653
Anecdotally, people
are finding through and,
600
00:28:59,653 --> 00:29:05,076
you know, kind of in the
what's his name ask
601
00:29:05,201 --> 00:29:08,288
and no, I'll remember it.
But one of the books around
602
00:29:08,288 --> 00:29:10,874
learning the art of learning.
About just white skin.
603
00:29:10,874 --> 00:29:14,461
So the whole concept of
the more of a master you become
604
00:29:14,461 --> 00:29:16,671
a certain thing
means that you can be
605
00:29:16,671 --> 00:29:19,173
more relaxed or calm
about the general
606
00:29:19,173 --> 00:29:20,924
ness of the movement
or the activity.
607
00:29:20,924 --> 00:29:23,470
And then you start honing in,
zeroing in on
608
00:29:23,470 --> 00:29:25,721
more specific things
all the way to the point
609
00:29:25,721 --> 00:29:27,640
as a master, you just
everything else
610
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,224
is running on autopilot
and you're doing
611
00:29:29,224 --> 00:29:31,560
you're just fighting
on that particular thing.
612
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,480
It's something to be
said about that. When you're
613
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,065
a master of your craft,
a handstands or a running
614
00:29:36,065 --> 00:29:38,902
or a squatting or lifting.
You know,
615
00:29:38,902 --> 00:29:41,403
for us, I'd probably say
we're not masters,
616
00:29:41,403 --> 00:29:42,989
we're intermediate
going into advanced
617
00:29:42,989 --> 00:29:45,032
for you on the Hanson
and calisthenics, probably for me
618
00:29:45,032 --> 00:29:46,867
from a lifting perspective
to the point
619
00:29:46,867 --> 00:29:49,369
that, yes, I could name
you things
620
00:29:49,369 --> 00:29:51,288
about the squat, right?
And I can talk to you
621
00:29:51,288 --> 00:29:52,664
about squat,
but now not have done
622
00:29:52,664 --> 00:29:55,919
squatting for honestly, who knows
how many thousands,
623
00:29:55,919 --> 00:29:57,878
tens of thousands of reps.
I would probably say,
624
00:29:57,878 --> 00:30:00,757
Oh, by the way, like I know
this particular feeling
625
00:30:00,757 --> 00:30:02,424
when your lower back,
if you're in this position
626
00:30:02,424 --> 00:30:04,093
on your knees
in this particular way
627
00:30:04,093 --> 00:30:07,012
or slightly, you know,
put yourself your chest out
628
00:30:07,012 --> 00:30:08,263
and you look at this angle
rather than that
629
00:30:08,263 --> 00:30:10,642
angle, at least for me.
And I can provide
630
00:30:10,642 --> 00:30:13,519
like extra things where
if you'd never really done it
631
00:30:13,519 --> 00:30:17,231
that much, you wouldn't,
you would not. Here's an example.
632
00:30:17,231 --> 00:30:20,192
I do Hanson's rate like,
you know, not really,
633
00:30:20,192 --> 00:30:22,987
but in comparison to you rarely
but I do Hanson more than the
634
00:30:22,987 --> 00:30:25,531
general population.
I could tell someone
635
00:30:25,531 --> 00:30:28,451
how to kind of do a. Hanson
There's some aspects of
636
00:30:28,451 --> 00:30:30,744
out of the the breath
and the holding your stomach,
637
00:30:30,744 --> 00:30:31,996
the positioning
and maybe the head
638
00:30:31,996 --> 00:30:34,540
wobble somewhat,
but that is laughable
639
00:30:34,540 --> 00:30:36,375
to the level of what
you would be able
640
00:30:36,375 --> 00:30:37,961
to give in terms
of the detail of someone
641
00:30:37,961 --> 00:30:41,213
talking about something. Right.
And then be these maybe.
642
00:30:41,213 --> 00:30:46,009
Because I dislike teaching so.
Stuff, but if you had to get to.
643
00:30:46,009 --> 00:30:48,680
I think if I had to. Yes. Well,
not even to teach it
644
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,557
in a description. Yes. In yes.
In describing things like I mean
645
00:30:51,557 --> 00:30:54,184
like if I was to do a Hanson,
I can describe to you
646
00:30:54,184 --> 00:30:57,105
some aspects of my hands,
maybe some of my head, some of my
647
00:30:57,105 --> 00:30:59,773
stomach, barely,
and some about my feet.
648
00:30:59,773 --> 00:31:01,859
But you could get very,
very detailed one to on
649
00:31:01,859 --> 00:31:03,403
I can feel when my head
is in this position
650
00:31:03,403 --> 00:31:06,029
and looking this way in my eyes.
The point in this,
651
00:31:06,029 --> 00:31:07,865
I don't get that at all.
Not even close not not run.
652
00:31:07,865 --> 00:31:10,326
The same thing goes for squats.
If it's a mean even less
653
00:31:10,326 --> 00:31:13,746
like a more technical one.
Overhead squats. Right. Which you
654
00:31:13,746 --> 00:31:15,748
probably haven't done
any overheads what.
655
00:31:15,748 --> 00:31:18,375
I've done, but. Not right.
So for me, I could tell you
656
00:31:18,375 --> 00:31:21,378
about the sitting
in your shoulders, pushing it
657
00:31:21,378 --> 00:31:23,006
out of your shoulders,
the feeling when it's slightly
658
00:31:23,006 --> 00:31:24,923
forward, backwards,
all of those things
659
00:31:24,923 --> 00:31:28,303
where for you, maybe you just
it's just kind of holding it.
660
00:31:28,303 --> 00:31:30,888
Just, just keep it
roughly vertical. Yeah, exactly.
661
00:31:30,888 --> 00:31:33,516
So don't fall for forward.
That's what I always did.
662
00:31:33,516 --> 00:31:36,519
So I think that's a good call
that there's going to be a level
663
00:31:36,519 --> 00:31:40,772
of having experienced the deep
layers of the onion when it comes
664
00:31:40,772 --> 00:31:42,942
into fitness to some of
these movements, because you just
665
00:31:42,942 --> 00:31:45,403
won't know otherwise. And even if
someone tells you about them,
666
00:31:45,403 --> 00:31:47,529
you went on to say
that even, you know,
667
00:31:47,529 --> 00:31:49,365
you could tell me all you want
and you have
668
00:31:49,365 --> 00:31:51,034
about the positioning
of your eyes on your head
669
00:31:51,034 --> 00:31:53,702
when you're
doing handstands So what?
670
00:31:53,702 --> 00:31:55,954
It doesn't mean anything
to me really, because I can
671
00:31:55,954 --> 00:31:58,958
conceptualise it, but I can't put
it into practice, nor in practice
672
00:31:58,958 --> 00:32:00,375
can it do anything for me
because I'm
673
00:32:00,375 --> 00:32:03,086
just not at that level.
Yeah, coaching such a tricky one
674
00:32:03,086 --> 00:32:05,131
at receiving coaching,
which is why
675
00:32:05,131 --> 00:32:08,800
I never do it myself.
A good friend of mine, Lucas,
676
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,345
he he's just been having
some troubles
677
00:32:10,345 --> 00:32:14,807
with a coach that he had
and it's just it's such,
678
00:32:14,891 --> 00:32:17,559
it seems like such a minefield
because his coaches are amazing,
679
00:32:17,559 --> 00:32:20,771
really, really great hands down.
But in terms of the way
680
00:32:20,771 --> 00:32:22,941
that he was delivering
it, it's almost like it's
681
00:32:22,941 --> 00:32:26,653
not even about the technique,
the details. It's more
682
00:32:26,653 --> 00:32:29,529
just the content delivery
and whatnot and becoming a much
683
00:32:29,529 --> 00:32:35,243
more appreciative of
the small minutiae of football,
684
00:32:35,243 --> 00:32:38,205
even just on the editing,
not saying whatnot, not saying.
685
00:32:38,205 --> 00:32:42,669
I'm like, and yeah, fixing up,
for example, I'm going to do it
686
00:32:42,669 --> 00:32:45,462
on this one, trying to eliminate
a little bit of the wind.
687
00:32:45,462 --> 00:32:48,840
I never really bothered
before because it it required
688
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,759
getting deep
into the audio spectrum
689
00:32:50,759 --> 00:32:52,886
and doing these certain things.
But if you spend
690
00:32:52,886 --> 00:32:56,807
a certain amount of time
researching YouTube channels,
691
00:32:56,807 --> 00:32:59,602
you will find someone
who has gone deep enough.
692
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,605
Mike from Music Radio
Creative, for example,
693
00:33:03,605 --> 00:33:06,442
he gets real deep
into the audition stuff.
694
00:33:06,442 --> 00:33:09,487
So the stuff I was looking at,
have you heard of this guy
695
00:33:09,487 --> 00:33:14,200
called some monster Aussie guy
Just a beast at the plot's
696
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,703
really, really, really strong
now you know is probably
697
00:33:17,703 --> 00:33:20,957
less than six foot, which helps,
but there's still a lot
698
00:33:20,957 --> 00:33:24,460
to be learned from him
and it's in the getting into
699
00:33:24,460 --> 00:33:27,380
the 2 hours 3 hours, 4 hours
worth of their content
700
00:33:27,380 --> 00:33:31,467
where you can start to see, oh,
okay, this is the little gems
701
00:33:31,467 --> 00:33:34,386
which they're throwing out, which
you're never going
702
00:33:34,386 --> 00:33:37,347
to get on a shorts or a reels.
It's just
703
00:33:37,347 --> 00:33:39,976
it's just it's too short. Yeah.
Look at the longer
704
00:33:39,976 --> 00:33:42,269
these might call out for someone
who's listening to a reel
705
00:33:42,269 --> 00:33:43,813
of the Mere Mortals
podcast as well. Right.
706
00:33:43,813 --> 00:33:46,065
This kind of similar
and if this is real, very good.
707
00:33:46,065 --> 00:33:48,776
So you're going to get
what we try to give you
708
00:33:48,776 --> 00:33:51,069
as the core content
or maybe the highlight
709
00:33:51,069 --> 00:33:52,654
in a real right
that's going to be, Hey,
710
00:33:52,654 --> 00:33:54,990
this is a good call out.
Oh, it's big thing.
711
00:33:54,990 --> 00:33:58,076
But if you want to get
the real content, the real gems,
712
00:33:58,076 --> 00:34:02,039
sometimes we might summarise them
in the real, but you'll get them
713
00:34:02,039 --> 00:34:04,625
much better delivered,
much better structured
714
00:34:04,625 --> 00:34:07,377
and probably in a more consumable
way to your brain through the
715
00:34:07,377 --> 00:34:09,005
whole package.
Go listen to fucking God
716
00:34:09,005 --> 00:34:12,090
they make us. Because honestly,
this is the same thing
717
00:34:12,090 --> 00:34:16,012
for other reels that I watch
and it might motivate me right
718
00:34:16,012 --> 00:34:17,429
to like a David
Golden Swan or something
719
00:34:17,429 --> 00:34:20,349
calling out very specific
and it might deliver like a line.
720
00:34:20,349 --> 00:34:22,309
The 1% rule, you know,
get 1% better every day
721
00:34:22,309 --> 00:34:23,436
and you know,
by the end of the year
722
00:34:23,436 --> 00:34:25,605
you'll get this.
And so that that's, that's good,
723
00:34:25,605 --> 00:34:27,940
that's like the good meat.
And yes, the kernel of
724
00:34:27,940 --> 00:34:30,108
truth behind that is awesome.
Then when you listen
725
00:34:30,108 --> 00:34:33,487
to a full podcast help you read
a whole book about it.
726
00:34:33,487 --> 00:34:37,992
It is those little nuances
that the peeling back the onion,
727
00:34:37,992 --> 00:34:40,327
you know, layers
by layer that you go, Oh, now
728
00:34:40,327 --> 00:34:43,456
it means a whole load more.
There's a lot more detail here.
729
00:34:44,456 --> 00:34:46,208
If I was to listen to
some of the Ryan holiday
730
00:34:46,208 --> 00:34:47,835
singing about podcasts
and that's all I'd
731
00:34:47,835 --> 00:34:51,130
written, I'd go fuck this shit
like, I'm not. The advertising
732
00:34:51,130 --> 00:34:52,340
is annoying.
It's not even that great.
733
00:34:52,340 --> 00:34:54,842
Sometimes the feedback
that he does, but you don't
734
00:34:54,842 --> 00:34:57,177
read the book and it's
a whole different experience now.
735
00:34:57,177 --> 00:34:59,472
Slightly different there,
but you know, it's just
736
00:34:59,472 --> 00:35:01,389
completely different. And the gem
that you find behind
737
00:35:01,389 --> 00:35:04,476
that are, you know,
not even comparable. So there is
738
00:35:04,476 --> 00:35:06,561
sometimes a problem of,
hey, sometimes you have to
739
00:35:06,561 --> 00:35:09,606
just get through the muck to find
the shining gems within. It's
740
00:35:09,606 --> 00:35:11,067
because you have to
contradict yourself.
741
00:35:11,067 --> 00:35:13,860
I think if you listen to
someone speak for 45 minutes
742
00:35:13,860 --> 00:35:17,114
on a topic on an overhead squat,
if you did that,
743
00:35:17,114 --> 00:35:19,699
I bet you would say
contradictory things
744
00:35:19,699 --> 00:35:22,994
three times, four times
at least where you know
745
00:35:22,994 --> 00:35:25,581
it's essential you do this
one thing and. Then it just.
746
00:35:25,581 --> 00:35:28,960
Sort of 10 minutes later
you casually mention about how
747
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,838
that's not important.
And that can be sometimes in the
748
00:35:32,838 --> 00:35:36,259
just free flowing speech.
But also you see this in
749
00:35:36,259 --> 00:35:38,052
if you really
pay attention some books
750
00:35:38,052 --> 00:35:41,139
when they have to have to talk
about a lot of topics, it's kind
751
00:35:41,139 --> 00:35:44,224
of contradictory. And I thought
for a long time that it was
752
00:35:44,224 --> 00:35:47,144
contradictory. But I now take it
more in the sense of,
753
00:35:47,144 --> 00:35:48,855
oh, it's more of the dichotomy
behind it. And that's
754
00:35:48,855 --> 00:35:49,856
one of the things
I was going to call out
755
00:35:49,856 --> 00:35:51,565
in the Ryan holiday latest
book for Discipline
756
00:35:51,565 --> 00:35:54,735
and Destiny is is a lot of times
when it's, you know,
757
00:35:54,735 --> 00:35:56,487
discipline with yourself,
you have to you know,
758
00:35:56,487 --> 00:35:59,407
you have to really
be going at it. There's some
759
00:35:59,407 --> 00:36:01,867
pushes of the hustle. But then in
the next chapter,
760
00:36:01,867 --> 00:36:03,034
he'll talk about, oh,
but you've got to be kind
761
00:36:03,034 --> 00:36:05,204
to yourself.
You know, the first point
762
00:36:05,204 --> 00:36:07,664
I was reading, it's run
this contradictory like what's
763
00:36:07,664 --> 00:36:10,208
going on here? But if you really
now that I've seen it,
764
00:36:10,208 --> 00:36:12,043
I've read enough of Ryan Holiday,
I know enough
765
00:36:12,043 --> 00:36:14,713
about what he's writing
on his style. I go,
766
00:36:15,672 --> 00:36:18,134
I know I can see
it's the it's the nuance.
767
00:36:18,134 --> 00:36:21,012
It's the dichotomy,
not the contradictory ness of it.
768
00:36:21,012 --> 00:36:23,472
And I think you'll find that
if you really listen to a
769
00:36:23,472 --> 00:36:26,601
I find this too, I listen to
some really deep podcasts
770
00:36:26,601 --> 00:36:28,476
that go into it
for quite a long time,
771
00:36:28,476 --> 00:36:31,646
and I could feel like it sounded
to be contradictory,
772
00:36:31,646 --> 00:36:34,692
but when I listen to it enough,
I go, Oh, no, no, this is the
773
00:36:34,692 --> 00:36:37,152
this is the very,
very small nuance
774
00:36:37,152 --> 00:36:39,697
that comes through. I'll give you
a very particular example
775
00:36:39,697 --> 00:36:42,449
of that. Andrew Human
and the Galpin Series.
776
00:36:42,449 --> 00:36:46,786
And by the way, this is I,
I don't I don't know if I've ever
777
00:36:46,786 --> 00:36:49,706
ranked podcasts like episodes
or whatever, but this series
778
00:36:49,706 --> 00:36:51,833
of Andy Galpin and Andrew Human
from a fitness
779
00:36:51,833 --> 00:36:53,920
health perspective,
it's a six potter.
780
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,047
Each one's about two and a half
hours is 3 hours. So it's
781
00:36:56,047 --> 00:36:58,048
it's a long minute.
I'm on the last
782
00:36:58,048 --> 00:37:01,302
part of the series,
Episode six, basically has to be
783
00:37:01,302 --> 00:37:03,094
in the top five like series
I've ever heard of
784
00:37:03,094 --> 00:37:05,264
in any podcast,
any talk, anything.
785
00:37:05,264 --> 00:37:07,641
I even include books, man.
It's so like,
786
00:37:07,641 --> 00:37:11,103
so packed of information.
Ridiculous amounts to like
787
00:37:11,103 --> 00:37:12,521
from a beginner level
all the way through
788
00:37:12,521 --> 00:37:14,065
like what events
they're any guide.
789
00:37:14,065 --> 00:37:16,775
We're talking about water
in the nutrition supplementation
790
00:37:16,775 --> 00:37:19,612
aspect of it. And again, he gives
kind of rules of thumb
791
00:37:19,612 --> 00:37:22,405
and you know grams
like sort of millilitres
792
00:37:22,405 --> 00:37:25,992
put like the kilogram and pounds
top of observation.
793
00:37:25,992 --> 00:37:27,536
But then you could say that he
contradicts himself
794
00:37:27,536 --> 00:37:29,121
because he changes it.
For another example,
795
00:37:29,121 --> 00:37:30,789
another example.
But then you go on.
796
00:37:30,789 --> 00:37:32,333
No, that's it's
very example driven.
797
00:37:32,333 --> 00:37:35,753
It's very outcome driven
because if you are a runner
798
00:37:35,753 --> 00:37:37,713
and you're doing this,
it's kind of optimal.
799
00:37:37,713 --> 00:37:39,382
That's what you want,
but you don't want to do that
800
00:37:39,382 --> 00:37:41,092
if you just stable
or you're doing something else.
801
00:37:41,092 --> 00:37:45,637
So it does change and differ
even to an example of
802
00:37:45,846 --> 00:37:47,722
if I even try to remember
what I was, I got this wrong,
803
00:37:47,722 --> 00:37:50,226
but it was a like a check on
your blood rating
804
00:37:50,226 --> 00:37:51,893
and it said, you know,
if you've got this
805
00:37:51,893 --> 00:37:54,605
reading during this time,
then you'd be really concerned.
806
00:37:54,605 --> 00:37:56,606
You'd be like, Oh damn,
you should be in the hospital.
807
00:37:56,606 --> 00:37:59,025
Like you need to get checked out.
But if it was just after
808
00:37:59,025 --> 00:38:00,610
you train like a really
intense session,
809
00:38:00,610 --> 00:38:02,320
you going to us? Perfect.
That's exactly what we want.
810
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:04,447
So it is very,
very time dependent.
811
00:38:04,447 --> 00:38:05,949
And you could go all this
contradictory like,
812
00:38:05,949 --> 00:38:07,117
what do you mean
you want to some time
813
00:38:07,117 --> 00:38:09,119
and you don't want to do
the other than if you had a real
814
00:38:09,119 --> 00:38:11,329
which one? Oh my God.
If you still like pressure visits
815
00:38:11,329 --> 00:38:13,708
and after this happened,
you go to the hospital.
816
00:38:13,708 --> 00:38:15,376
But then you actually
looked into the eyes
817
00:38:15,376 --> 00:38:16,960
and go, Oh, no,
but it actually is fine here
818
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,088
at this particular time,
and it's all fine at this time.
819
00:38:19,088 --> 00:38:21,047
And you even get some extreme
examples around
820
00:38:21,047 --> 00:38:22,925
just before you know,
you going to bed
821
00:38:22,925 --> 00:38:24,635
or when you're waking up
in the middle of the night,
822
00:38:24,635 --> 00:38:26,387
you know, if you waking up,
you have to get pierced,
823
00:38:26,387 --> 00:38:29,306
but you've got a dry mouth.
It means this if you are
824
00:38:29,306 --> 00:38:30,641
really, really thirsty
and you have to
825
00:38:30,641 --> 00:38:33,476
exist in this, again,
kind of dense at all,
826
00:38:33,476 --> 00:38:34,894
but you could change
because of all these things.
827
00:38:34,894 --> 00:38:37,063
Again, there's a lot of detail
within the ideas
828
00:38:37,063 --> 00:38:40,568
that you could change. The some
the Do you feel
829
00:38:40,568 --> 00:38:44,405
like it got too deep into the
into the things about water?
830
00:38:44,405 --> 00:38:47,324
I mean. Look, for me it's.
Just fucking. Water. Look for me.
831
00:38:47,324 --> 00:38:50,619
God, deep enough, deep enough.
This is this is not a series
832
00:38:50,619 --> 00:38:53,164
you would listen to
if you. Were a casual. Observer.
833
00:38:53,164 --> 00:38:56,833
Casual observer? Yeah.
If even if you're not. If you're
834
00:38:56,833 --> 00:38:58,001
a casual observer,
you care about this
835
00:38:58,001 --> 00:38:59,711
sort of stuff,
then it'd be really up
836
00:38:59,711 --> 00:39:01,422
your alley. It wouldn't
be up your alley
837
00:39:01,422 --> 00:39:03,882
if you are such a person
that just want to kind of
838
00:39:03,882 --> 00:39:05,634
get told, Hey, this
are you going to do
839
00:39:05,634 --> 00:39:07,010
or you don't care
about the money? Sure.
840
00:39:07,010 --> 00:39:10,722
Of exact water intake,
good carbohydrate or recovery?
841
00:39:10,722 --> 00:39:12,641
Probably nothing, you know.
Yeah, I. Was
842
00:39:12,641 --> 00:39:19,481
I was thinking recently about the
how much I have been recently.
843
00:39:19,481 --> 00:39:21,608
Well, not recently.
Just it became more
844
00:39:21,608 --> 00:39:24,320
apparent to me that
I've been saying a lot of things
845
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,157
which I can't verify or the
verification is shaky.
846
00:39:28,157 --> 00:39:32,661
I did this real recently
on the podcast with last week
847
00:39:32,661 --> 00:39:35,789
where we're talking about
Coinbase and I was saying,
848
00:39:35,789 --> 00:39:38,000
you know, all these regulations
are great and whatnot,
849
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:43,005
but then you see someone from
who set up a bunch of shorts
850
00:39:43,005 --> 00:39:47,217
for the four day thing
to short coin thing
851
00:39:47,217 --> 00:39:51,222
and they turned 100 K into
several million. And I was
852
00:39:51,222 --> 00:39:53,391
kind of insinuating,
you know, that's
853
00:39:53,391 --> 00:39:55,434
probably someone who knew
about this information
854
00:39:55,434 --> 00:39:57,853
freehand and whatnot.
I've no fucking clue
855
00:39:57,853 --> 00:39:59,021
if that's true.
Do you know how many.
856
00:39:59,021 --> 00:40:02,942
Degenerate gamblers are. You?
You've just had one talk about
857
00:40:02,942 --> 00:40:06,403
fucking cock
punched Nfts for what,
858
00:40:06,403 --> 00:40:10,240
20 minutes? And, you know,
that's just like a fun
859
00:40:10,240 --> 00:40:13,284
random thing. This could have
just been a person who's, like.
860
00:40:13,284 --> 00:40:16,163
Fucking coins,
fucking coin. Let's.
861
00:40:16,163 --> 00:40:17,414
Let's just see
what happens, you know?
862
00:40:17,414 --> 00:40:19,541
Let's just do something.
And they could have expected to
863
00:40:19,541 --> 00:40:23,003
maybe make, you know, 10% back on
what they were doing
864
00:40:23,003 --> 00:40:27,298
instead of 2000. I'm lucky as.
Shit. Well, this time
865
00:40:27,298 --> 00:40:29,885
it's so much lucky.
Brush it out like dry. You know,
866
00:40:29,885 --> 00:40:31,679
Drake's gambling.
I've seen how much Drake
867
00:40:31,679 --> 00:40:35,306
gambles, dude. Gambles, like hot,
like he puts $1,000,000
868
00:40:35,306 --> 00:40:38,436
on a 1.2 return like, spot. Like,
is this one of those
869
00:40:38,436 --> 00:40:40,271
ones, though,
where he's streaming it?
870
00:40:40,271 --> 00:40:42,481
And so people watch and say,
I'm kind of making
871
00:40:42,481 --> 00:40:44,315
money back here.
My brother followed
872
00:40:44,315 --> 00:40:47,193
this guy who did that. He would
make these thousand
873
00:40:47,193 --> 00:40:52,199
dollar pushes,$10,000 pushes on
just slot machines or.
874
00:40:52,199 --> 00:40:54,117
I think. He things.
But he was kind of
875
00:40:54,117 --> 00:40:56,829
getting sponsored by
Yeah the gambling
876
00:40:56,829 --> 00:40:59,248
things themselves.
So it's kind of like. Look in my
877
00:40:59,248 --> 00:41:01,625
because I'm pretty sure it's
one of the crypto casinos that is
878
00:41:01,625 --> 00:41:04,210
being used for this so maybe that
is the case. Yeah,
879
00:41:04,210 --> 00:41:06,297
but apparently he's known
as I speak
880
00:41:06,297 --> 00:41:08,382
for you to be gambling.
So, you know.
881
00:41:08,382 --> 00:41:09,800
He probably gets. A rush.
You know,
882
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:12,135
imagine someone like that
being like, Oh, I've got
883
00:41:12,135 --> 00:41:14,472
hundreds of millions. I'll just
let's short them
884
00:41:14,472 --> 00:41:16,724
just to see what happens.
Bam, It hits you.
885
00:41:16,724 --> 00:41:20,936
No, you're right there.
As time goes on again, the way
886
00:41:20,936 --> 00:41:23,021
that I try to describe things,
I tell people again,
887
00:41:23,021 --> 00:41:26,650
he has a direct example for
probably my my little golf
888
00:41:26,650 --> 00:41:29,235
into the future. I've been really
getting into and hearing this
889
00:41:29,235 --> 00:41:32,364
a lot more of how to teach kids
as a growing up,
890
00:41:32,364 --> 00:41:34,657
how to do things,
or when they ask you about things
891
00:41:34,657 --> 00:41:38,036
and the understanding. And one of
those discussions was, well,
892
00:41:38,036 --> 00:41:40,246
you know, they ask you something
generally, and I'm talking
893
00:41:40,246 --> 00:41:42,666
like an older child here,
you'll probably know
894
00:41:42,666 --> 00:41:44,710
the answer generally, and they're
going to ask you another Y
895
00:41:44,710 --> 00:41:46,170
and then you're going to go
down the path.
896
00:41:46,170 --> 00:41:49,297
And then you get to the point
where you're like, just because.
897
00:41:49,297 --> 00:41:52,550
Well, I just Yeah, exactly.
And it I actually hear this
898
00:41:52,550 --> 00:41:53,760
from a lot of parents,
how you're going
899
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,012
to really hate this.
You're going to hear them
900
00:41:56,012 --> 00:41:57,847
right now. This point, obviously
I can't say what I mean
901
00:41:57,847 --> 00:42:00,391
if you like, but I mean, dude,
I love that. This is what I love.
902
00:42:00,391 --> 00:42:02,561
I love talking like this.
And finding it out.
903
00:42:02,561 --> 00:42:04,438
But I wouldn't
actually one better
904
00:42:04,438 --> 00:42:07,900
would be to help the child out
or and this again
905
00:42:07,900 --> 00:42:10,318
you can extrapolate
to human on now how do you figure
906
00:42:10,318 --> 00:42:12,445
this out right like what are
the various ways you can go and
907
00:42:12,445 --> 00:42:13,947
figure this out?
And that might be,
908
00:42:13,947 --> 00:42:17,409
well, let's Google it right?
So asking that, but then
909
00:42:17,409 --> 00:42:19,869
asking even further of,
okay, what's another way
910
00:42:19,869 --> 00:42:21,539
you might be able to prove this?
And so this comes
911
00:42:21,539 --> 00:42:25,626
to this particular sort of piece
where sometimes invalidating,
912
00:42:25,626 --> 00:42:27,210
I think most
generally mere mortals
913
00:42:27,210 --> 00:42:28,836
just have a hard time
to validate something
914
00:42:28,836 --> 00:42:30,965
because don't know how to
actually go about doing this
915
00:42:32,132 --> 00:42:34,592
with an inexperienced
people person. For us now,
916
00:42:34,592 --> 00:42:37,221
it's pretty easy,
but they just say, you know,
917
00:42:37,221 --> 00:42:39,806
any type of crypto scanner,
it'd be pretty simple for us,
918
00:42:39,806 --> 00:42:41,099
even if you've
never used to before,
919
00:42:41,099 --> 00:42:43,143
just because you've got
some understanding of where to go
920
00:42:43,143 --> 00:42:45,186
and find out, Oh, okay.
I want to see exactly
921
00:42:45,186 --> 00:42:46,896
where this transaction
is happening, how many moons
922
00:42:46,896 --> 00:42:48,648
has gone through, what blocks
is going through.
923
00:42:48,648 --> 00:42:50,525
All of those details,
kind of tracking through.
924
00:42:50,525 --> 00:42:52,027
I was shooting balls yesterday
when I was telling
925
00:42:52,027 --> 00:42:53,945
my cat downloaded
it was taking forever.
926
00:42:53,945 --> 00:42:57,074
I exchange it to Bitcoin.
It took 20 minutes
927
00:42:57,074 --> 00:42:58,909
and I was 20 goals
and I knew what to do.
928
00:42:58,909 --> 00:43:01,036
Like I knew where to look
and find this information.
929
00:43:01,036 --> 00:43:03,914
Still nervous but again, so that
that retrospective
930
00:43:03,914 --> 00:43:06,333
to teach someone
I would tell them
931
00:43:06,333 --> 00:43:09,168
don't do this and this
and this because you know
932
00:43:09,168 --> 00:43:10,920
as much as I know
that it works for me,
933
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,215
it was work for me,
my not for them. And it's
934
00:43:13,215 --> 00:43:15,967
whether it's all the it's
getting them to understand
935
00:43:15,967 --> 00:43:18,804
how would you figure this out
and then let's go for a kid
936
00:43:18,804 --> 00:43:20,889
example is Oh cool.
So you think this and this
937
00:43:20,889 --> 00:43:23,141
and this might be the way
that we figure out if a dinosaur
938
00:43:23,141 --> 00:43:24,893
still exists.
Let's go do that now
939
00:43:24,893 --> 00:43:27,438
and let's go to prove it.
And you can they can essentially
940
00:43:27,438 --> 00:43:28,813
find their answer.
And then if they want to ask
941
00:43:28,813 --> 00:43:30,858
what was its,
they can almost do that
942
00:43:30,858 --> 00:43:33,110
on their own right
to finding it again,
943
00:43:33,110 --> 00:43:34,402
if the kids are younger
and you don't want them
944
00:43:34,402 --> 00:43:36,195
using Internet or something
like that, well,
945
00:43:36,195 --> 00:43:38,239
you can maybe figure out
how the mean to ask
946
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,326
the different questions.
But it's that aspect of
947
00:43:41,409 --> 00:43:44,288
I understand more and more
now that as much as you
948
00:43:44,288 --> 00:43:47,166
have an answer, it might not be
the right answer.
949
00:43:47,166 --> 00:43:49,126
It might not be delivered the way
the other person's
950
00:43:49,126 --> 00:43:50,918
going understand it,
and maybe leading them
951
00:43:50,918 --> 00:43:53,672
to lead them to the water
is going to be much more helpful
952
00:43:53,672 --> 00:43:57,092
than just spouting it out.
So I look, we'll see
953
00:43:57,092 --> 00:43:58,719
how that applies. Obviously,
what I'm annoyed
954
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,637
to in the morning,
some people will be like,
955
00:44:00,637 --> 00:44:02,306
not going to be like that.
Let's go, let's go find the ends.
956
00:44:02,306 --> 00:44:04,307
And I'll be like, No,
I just have to sleep now. Yeah.
957
00:44:04,307 --> 00:44:08,478
So I want to ask you something
more about that. But
958
00:44:08,478 --> 00:44:12,023
I've been noticing probably the
last two years, I'd say
959
00:44:12,023 --> 00:44:15,277
I've kind of been
shifting away from what I would
960
00:44:15,277 --> 00:44:17,153
have described,
the scientific method
961
00:44:17,153 --> 00:44:22,659
and going into more observations,
basing more decisions around
962
00:44:22,659 --> 00:44:25,871
personal observations from myself
or from my other or from others.
963
00:44:25,871 --> 00:44:29,083
And I was going like all Kyrin
you know, this is kind of
964
00:44:29,083 --> 00:44:33,253
risky territory. This is where
you get into, you know,
965
00:44:33,253 --> 00:44:35,380
just the bias
that comes from humans
966
00:44:35,380 --> 00:44:38,842
or from, as a word that's
not jumping into my brain
967
00:44:38,842 --> 00:44:42,054
right away. But you know, it's
because it's them. They said that
968
00:44:42,054 --> 00:44:46,724
that's like, Oh yeah, that
that must be true. And when I was
969
00:44:46,724 --> 00:44:48,726
thinking about it more,
I went, okay, well, you know,
970
00:44:48,726 --> 00:44:51,146
what is the scientific method?
And really
971
00:44:51,146 --> 00:44:54,315
when it gets down to it,
it needs to be provable
972
00:44:54,315 --> 00:44:57,277
and I need to be able to do it.
I feel and that's
973
00:44:57,277 --> 00:44:59,153
the whole point. It needs to
be replicable.
974
00:44:59,153 --> 00:45:03,409
And the most valid way
that I can do that is by doing it
975
00:45:03,409 --> 00:45:07,246
myself. Now, obviously
I don't have a particle collider
976
00:45:07,246 --> 00:45:09,789
in my basement,
so I'm not going to be
977
00:45:09,789 --> 00:45:13,126
trying to verify, you know, did
we find out the Higgs boson?
978
00:45:13,126 --> 00:45:16,422
Did you know this
experimental thing works or not?
979
00:45:16,422 --> 00:45:19,215
Obviously not,
But a lot more decisions
980
00:45:19,215 --> 00:45:22,385
when it comes to should I take
vitamins or not, you know, things
981
00:45:22,385 --> 00:45:25,304
that actually matter
to me, the Higgs boson,
982
00:45:25,304 --> 00:45:27,766
maybe that'll matter to me
in ten years time
983
00:45:27,766 --> 00:45:30,018
when someone create
something that couldn't
984
00:45:30,018 --> 00:45:35,440
have been created without that,
I, I the new stuff
985
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,235
coming out from Apple there's
probably some tech in there
986
00:45:38,235 --> 00:45:42,489
which required some breakthroughs
that I would never be able
987
00:45:42,489 --> 00:45:45,199
to verify myself.
Probably thousands because I got
988
00:45:45,199 --> 00:45:49,163
thousands of patents and whatnot.
But things that apply to me.
989
00:45:49,163 --> 00:45:53,916
Yeah. How to plants,
what should I eat? What kind of,
990
00:45:53,916 --> 00:45:57,128
you know, media
consumption is good. Not that's
991
00:45:57,128 --> 00:45:59,505
where I'm putting
a lot more weight on
992
00:45:59,505 --> 00:46:02,592
just my own observations
and kind of select
993
00:46:02,592 --> 00:46:04,802
other people around me
because I know the nuances.
994
00:46:04,802 --> 00:46:08,139
I know that guy
really into Bitcoin
995
00:46:08,139 --> 00:46:10,184
and he acts like this way
and he's giving me
996
00:46:10,184 --> 00:46:14,103
some recommendations on carbs.
Not one. I can kind of go.
997
00:46:14,103 --> 00:46:17,106
Yeah, yeah, I think you're.
Kind of trapped
998
00:46:17,106 --> 00:46:21,402
in this little bit of a bitcoin.
There's a,
999
00:46:21,402 --> 00:46:23,197
there's a mix of people
where you can kind of
1000
00:46:23,197 --> 00:46:26,324
see it's, you know,
super traditional values.
1001
00:46:26,324 --> 00:46:31,413
Bitcoin self-custody,
eating meat, fuck the mainstream
1002
00:46:31,413 --> 00:46:36,376
media. It just the way
he was talking was. Actually.
1003
00:46:36,376 --> 00:46:38,420
You know, you're saying
carbs are bad for me.
1004
00:46:38,420 --> 00:46:40,047
You're saying
intermittent fasting is
1005
00:46:40,047 --> 00:46:42,007
is not good.
I've been doing this shit
1006
00:46:42,007 --> 00:46:45,760
for seven years and I feel
fucking fantastic. Yeah,
1007
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,554
I don't think I need
to, you know, consider your views
1008
00:46:48,554 --> 00:46:52,184
on this as, as rock solid.
And even if you could produce
1009
00:46:52,184 --> 00:46:55,436
a whole lot of science which says
this is the best way
1010
00:46:55,436 --> 00:47:00,943
to do it on average for humans.
Yeah, I think the I sometimes
1011
00:47:00,943 --> 00:47:03,237
speak about on the podcast
and I think about it on mine,
1012
00:47:03,237 --> 00:47:06,114
right about time domains
with a lot of things.
1013
00:47:06,114 --> 00:47:09,576
I'm becoming much more a fan now
of asking the question of
1014
00:47:09,576 --> 00:47:11,702
not I not saying it
like any details I like optimise
1015
00:47:11,702 --> 00:47:14,414
but that is it Is that like
what are you optimising for.
1016
00:47:14,414 --> 00:47:17,626
What is it that you selecting for
to to go towards?
1017
00:47:17,626 --> 00:47:19,670
Because in the end if someone
actually asks me I'd rather
1018
00:47:19,670 --> 00:47:23,422
even verifying. I would probably
ask that question of okay,
1019
00:47:23,422 --> 00:47:24,925
like what is it
that you're aiming for?
1020
00:47:24,925 --> 00:47:27,177
What's the optimisation
to do that? Because again,
1021
00:47:27,177 --> 00:47:29,596
the answer of a carbs up,
you know, carbs are needed,
1022
00:47:29,596 --> 00:47:33,976
you need carbs. Well, again,
if you optimising for what?
1023
00:47:33,976 --> 00:47:36,311
Like if you're
working out twice a,
1024
00:47:36,311 --> 00:47:37,771
you know, twice a day
and so you need to
1025
00:47:37,771 --> 00:47:39,438
the glycogen recovery
and then you do have
1026
00:47:39,438 --> 00:47:42,192
a pretty limited amount of time
to go and do that. Well, fuck it.
1027
00:47:42,192 --> 00:47:44,110
Absolutely. There's a reason
there's reasonable
1028
00:47:44,110 --> 00:47:46,572
reasons for that.
And to optimise for you trying
1029
00:47:46,572 --> 00:47:48,782
to become better,
you need to cool.
1030
00:47:48,782 --> 00:47:51,117
But if you don't like it's a it's
a more skill base.
1031
00:47:51,117 --> 00:47:53,286
Like I had said,
I probably doubt that
1032
00:47:53,286 --> 00:47:54,788
you probably I need that.
That's not a thing.
1033
00:47:54,788 --> 00:47:57,248
And so I think the
when you optimise for
1034
00:47:57,248 --> 00:48:00,460
and also sometimes asking that
question of people get some also
1035
00:48:00,460 --> 00:48:03,755
to realise that oh I just made a
blanket statement and it does
1036
00:48:03,755 --> 00:48:06,757
come back to us as well
when we make a what seems to be
1037
00:48:06,757 --> 00:48:08,885
a blanket statement about
something like, Hey,
1038
00:48:10,052 --> 00:48:13,056
this particular type
of camera is wonderful, I guess
1039
00:48:13,056 --> 00:48:16,518
we're optimising for it to be
great quality for the video
1040
00:48:16,518 --> 00:48:17,768
and picks up,
but we don't need it
1041
00:48:17,768 --> 00:48:19,605
to pick up audio, right?
We don't need it to do this
1042
00:48:19,605 --> 00:48:20,981
because we've got
using microphones
1043
00:48:20,981 --> 00:48:22,106
while someone out
there might be like, Oh, that.
1044
00:48:22,106 --> 00:48:23,900
But it's good for me because it's
picking up these audio
1045
00:48:23,900 --> 00:48:25,985
on the best, right?
Okay, we got it wrong.
1046
00:48:25,985 --> 00:48:28,030
So it's not about
getting it wrong.
1047
00:48:28,030 --> 00:48:31,115
It's about, well, if you being
quite particular and precise,
1048
00:48:31,115 --> 00:48:33,492
that's the other one. It be like
it was recently precise
1049
00:48:33,492 --> 00:48:35,786
about what the optimising for.
Then you can get
1050
00:48:35,786 --> 00:48:37,914
closer to the truth
and maybe replicate
1051
00:48:37,914 --> 00:48:41,835
and get to that more scientific
basis of okay can I replicate
1052
00:48:41,835 --> 00:48:44,420
it as a verifiable in that way
for a particular reason?
1053
00:48:44,420 --> 00:48:47,925
Not you know, maybe not many
people will, you know,
1054
00:48:47,925 --> 00:48:49,760
conceptualise with this,
but if you're writing a mass
1055
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:52,094
or thesis or a Ph.D.
or something like that,
1056
00:48:52,094 --> 00:48:55,514
you don't just fucking right.
Hey, I want to prove that,
1057
00:48:55,514 --> 00:48:58,601
you know, all trees are blue or
the old trees are green
1058
00:48:58,601 --> 00:49:01,355
like that. That's, that's
a source of lots.
1059
00:49:01,355 --> 00:49:02,731
Scope of a question.
You know what? I got to do it.
1060
00:49:02,731 --> 00:49:04,815
I got to in three years at dumb
you need to get
1061
00:49:04,815 --> 00:49:07,985
really quite precise.
One of my thesis, I think, was
1062
00:49:07,985 --> 00:49:12,907
studying the damages in cable
state suspension, bridges,
1063
00:49:12,907 --> 00:49:16,452
vibrational analysis. Right.
So it's pretty, pretty like, fine
1064
00:49:16,452 --> 00:49:18,996
and what the hell it is.
And even then, even then,
1065
00:49:18,996 --> 00:49:21,875
it was still not, you know,
close enough to really,
1066
00:49:21,875 --> 00:49:24,585
when I was doing the work for it
needed to be even more like cable
1067
00:49:24,585 --> 00:49:26,505
suspension bridges
with this exactness
1068
00:49:26,505 --> 00:49:30,217
of whatever, right?
So it's precision that you need
1069
00:49:30,217 --> 00:49:31,717
optimisation,
that you need for it
1070
00:49:31,717 --> 00:49:33,971
to kind of work out
well and verify it.
1071
00:49:33,971 --> 00:49:35,597
You don't get it. There's no
such thing out.
1072
00:49:35,597 --> 00:49:37,014
They go look it up.
There's no such
1073
00:49:37,014 --> 00:49:39,684
study out there that is,
you know, broad reaching,
1074
00:49:39,684 --> 00:49:42,646
not precise,
not really optimised. That then
1075
00:49:42,646 --> 00:49:45,983
houses wonderful verification
because it's just such an insane
1076
00:49:45,983 --> 00:49:47,275
amount of information.
I would have to go
1077
00:49:47,275 --> 00:49:48,860
and get verified for that,
that it's almost not
1078
00:49:48,860 --> 00:49:50,737
even replicable.
But I mean redo it again.
1079
00:49:50,737 --> 00:49:52,572
Everything is changed, all the
parameters of change.
1080
00:49:52,572 --> 00:49:54,949
So it's like, well, as pointless.
What would you write
1081
00:49:54,949 --> 00:49:59,621
your thesis on in terms of adding
to the scientific knowledge?
1082
00:49:59,621 --> 00:50:02,081
Yeah, I. Completely,
I probably took, I took a wife,
1083
00:50:02,081 --> 00:50:04,376
I took a wife
from the university. I took
1084
00:50:04,376 --> 00:50:07,086
I took away from it, took away
from someone else
1085
00:50:07,086 --> 00:50:09,130
getting the money.
I took away time.
1086
00:50:09,130 --> 00:50:11,048
I probably took away
from using the fucking
1087
00:50:11,048 --> 00:50:15,387
vibrational methods on it.
Negative contribution to society.
1088
00:50:15,387 --> 00:50:20,182
I was saying this to Pete Smissen
when on that conversation
1089
00:50:20,182 --> 00:50:22,728
mine was about underground
mine sales. I can't even remember
1090
00:50:22,728 --> 00:50:24,688
what it was called,
but it was basically how to seal
1091
00:50:24,688 --> 00:50:28,025
an underground mine
in after closure
1092
00:50:28,025 --> 00:50:31,277
or something like that.
The amount of cherry
1093
00:50:31,277 --> 00:50:40,786
picking of data, of buzzwords, of
lack of data, of waffle, it just
1094
00:50:40,786 --> 00:50:44,248
I it's astounding to me
that not only did
1095
00:50:44,248 --> 00:50:46,333
I get a good grade,
but I probably wrote
1096
00:50:46,333 --> 00:50:50,422
something that is better
than almost everyone that I did
1097
00:50:50,422 --> 00:50:54,800
my course with.
And I just gave like the I hope
1098
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:58,722
that thing never gets cited
or it gets cited as an example
1099
00:50:58,722 --> 00:51:01,557
of bad science.
Maybe because it was. Just so
1100
00:51:01,557 --> 00:51:05,061
it was just so shit. And that was
what made me disillusioned
1101
00:51:05,061 --> 00:51:07,731
with university right at the end
where I just read this is like
1102
00:51:07,731 --> 00:51:09,940
the masterpiece.
This is what it is. Yeah.
1103
00:51:09,940 --> 00:51:11,650
You start your bachelor's
course and it's
1104
00:51:11,650 --> 00:51:14,070
this is the big thing.
This is, you know, it's
1105
00:51:14,070 --> 00:51:15,905
the magnum opus is going
to, you know,
1106
00:51:15,905 --> 00:51:18,449
four years of hard work.
It's going to come, you know,
1107
00:51:18,449 --> 00:51:23,204
culminate in this. It was just.
So. Bad and I knew.
1108
00:51:23,204 --> 00:51:26,750
It was so bad. Dude, man,
for all the engineers out there
1109
00:51:26,750 --> 00:51:28,710
who play around with bridge,
especially cable, say,
1110
00:51:28,710 --> 00:51:30,378
suspension, and you want to
learn something
1111
00:51:30,378 --> 00:51:31,963
about rational analysis
and how it
1112
00:51:31,963 --> 00:51:35,092
you can deal with it with
four fractures and
1113
00:51:35,092 --> 00:51:37,844
preventative measures.
Fact is, I'm sorry about that.
1114
00:51:37,844 --> 00:51:40,387
Yeah, that's what happens.
About that next. Next bridge
1115
00:51:40,387 --> 00:51:43,809
that falls in Australia
wants to definitely want. A.
1116
00:51:43,809 --> 00:51:47,436
Better one more question.
So you were talking about,
1117
00:51:47,436 --> 00:51:51,065
you know, with the daughter
and how couple of things
1118
00:51:51,065 --> 00:51:53,025
we want to teach her
and you want to make sure
1119
00:51:53,025 --> 00:51:55,112
you're not going to the
just because stage
1120
00:51:55,112 --> 00:51:57,780
or being one of those people.
I see it all the time of the
1121
00:51:57,780 --> 00:52:01,034
calisthenics POCs a lot of kids
with that parents around
1122
00:52:01,034 --> 00:52:05,956
the it's just sad man. Just go,
Oh man, that poor kid. You know,
1123
00:52:05,956 --> 00:52:09,083
that's a bad foot
start off with, with a
1124
00:52:09,083 --> 00:52:12,378
with someone,
a parent interacting
1125
00:52:12,378 --> 00:52:15,590
with them like that.
What do you think about yourself
1126
00:52:15,590 --> 00:52:19,510
fretting over the
small decisions? So we kind of
1127
00:52:19,510 --> 00:52:21,554
talked about this a while ago
where you were looking at
1128
00:52:21,554 --> 00:52:24,724
sleep patterns and you
had this graph and stuff
1129
00:52:24,724 --> 00:52:28,311
and it was going to crazy at.
Do you think you're going
1130
00:52:28,311 --> 00:52:31,481
to be doing over that?
And like Pete was saying,
1131
00:52:31,481 --> 00:52:34,483
he was also saying,
yeah, he reckons it's maybe
1132
00:52:34,483 --> 00:52:39,114
70%, 80% nature
and there's only 20 or 30%
1133
00:52:39,114 --> 00:52:43,117
of what he can do
actually influences his child.
1134
00:52:43,117 --> 00:52:45,036
Do you reckon you're going to be
going down that alley
1135
00:52:45,036 --> 00:52:47,831
or do you still reckon
your decisions are going to have
1136
00:52:47,831 --> 00:52:50,208
big impact on the,
on the his life.
1137
00:52:50,208 --> 00:52:52,918
Oh what you're not at.
No, not at all.
1138
00:52:52,918 --> 00:52:55,713
Even more like I know in my
in my personal life like that
1139
00:52:55,713 --> 00:52:59,592
that doesn't really come to pass
and even as it goes on
1140
00:52:59,592 --> 00:53:02,344
in time, it's becoming
even more prevalent. I just don't
1141
00:53:02,344 --> 00:53:05,472
really sweat that as much.
And so I think
1142
00:53:05,472 --> 00:53:08,518
it won't be as important
and I'll like, yeah, it's
1143
00:53:08,518 --> 00:53:10,686
when you say tracking, it just
it does the tracking
1144
00:53:10,686 --> 00:53:12,771
and it's not to like,
oh, she's have this much body
1145
00:53:12,771 --> 00:53:15,608
put any extra detail behind
and I'm even moving away
1146
00:53:15,608 --> 00:53:17,152
from that in my own
sleep patterns.
1147
00:53:17,152 --> 00:53:19,362
More so on the averages. You know
I have three months
1148
00:53:19,362 --> 00:53:21,197
if it's getting worse or better.
Okay assess it.
1149
00:53:21,197 --> 00:53:23,657
But I'm not per day
almost looking at and being like,
1150
00:53:23,657 --> 00:53:25,492
oh, this my sleep
or REM sleep or. Else
1151
00:53:25,492 --> 00:53:27,996
any of her personality
starting to shine through.
1152
00:53:27,996 --> 00:53:30,248
She's still does. Everything
a little tiny little bit,
1153
00:53:30,248 --> 00:53:32,208
but you won't see that
until they're really starting
1154
00:53:32,208 --> 00:53:35,085
to move about. Like crawl them.
Talk a little bit.
1155
00:53:35,085 --> 00:53:38,255
Talk a little bit, do the giggles
and smiles. None of that comes
1156
00:53:38,255 --> 00:53:40,717
until a few months. Okay.
So we'll see a little bit of
1157
00:53:40,717 --> 00:53:42,844
I will. Check back in.
On that. Exactly.
1158
00:53:42,844 --> 00:53:45,054
We're going to wrap it up, folks.
This again,
1159
00:53:45,054 --> 00:53:47,056
this is the Meanderings podcast.
We do it outdoors
1160
00:53:47,056 --> 00:53:50,851
and we do this for you.
Miyamoto lights at home. We ask,
1161
00:53:50,851 --> 00:53:52,811
of course, that you support us
by the main way,
1162
00:53:52,811 --> 00:53:54,438
which is the Valley
of the Valley model. That is,
1163
00:53:54,438 --> 00:53:56,273
you send through a booster.
Graham All stream
1164
00:53:56,273 --> 00:53:58,985
through some satoshis
to us directly. That's Apple's
1165
00:53:58,985 --> 00:54:01,028
podcast to continue.
It helps us to
1166
00:54:01,028 --> 00:54:03,739
make the time to do this.
The best place you can do that,
1167
00:54:03,739 --> 00:54:07,034
going to the new podcasting apps
out there, which is things
1168
00:54:07,034 --> 00:54:11,206
like Castle Matic,
Pot Friend Fountain.
1169
00:54:11,206 --> 00:54:14,166
New one you can do is a podcast
is good, a new one
1170
00:54:14,166 --> 00:54:17,170
you can boost through
on his podcast guru. That's.
1171
00:54:17,170 --> 00:54:20,047
Another one now that
you're able to what
1172
00:54:20,047 --> 00:54:23,842
I would actually recommend is
get all become their wallet
1173
00:54:23,842 --> 00:54:26,721
and their system is
once you've got
1174
00:54:26,721 --> 00:54:33,728
some satoshis on there it's very
very easy to use with a lot
1175
00:54:33,728 --> 00:54:39,400
cure at cost of podcasts
podcast guru and I think cost
1176
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,278
Emetic as well. I don't know.
I don't have an Apple app
1177
00:54:42,278 --> 00:54:46,157
so Apple device so I can't
verify with that one.
1178
00:54:46,157 --> 00:54:50,577
But yeah using
that wallet system is really easy
1179
00:54:50,577 --> 00:54:52,998
and that's kind of
all you need to have is
1180
00:54:52,998 --> 00:54:57,126
memos that get all become
password bam.
1181
00:54:57,126 --> 00:55:00,338
You can link that to well again
that's a big call out that's
1182
00:55:00,338 --> 00:55:02,715
probably the call out for me.
The in the other place of course
1183
00:55:02,715 --> 00:55:04,967
it can support us
through our YouTube channel
1184
00:55:04,967 --> 00:55:07,052
all the other platforms
we do here our audio
1185
00:55:07,052 --> 00:55:08,679
you can go there and subscribe.
You can follow us
1186
00:55:08,679 --> 00:55:10,849
through and share with a friend.
All of that helps out.
1187
00:55:10,849 --> 00:55:12,976
Sharing Hit that chip.
Yeah, it does for sure.
1188
00:55:12,976 --> 00:55:15,519
Help out and go play around
with things. We're
1189
00:55:15,519 --> 00:55:18,315
trying to update the website
with a lot of different things
1190
00:55:18,315 --> 00:55:19,606
and I can't going
to be working on it.
1191
00:55:19,606 --> 00:55:21,525
Still working and still.
There's training
1192
00:55:21,525 --> 00:55:23,110
that I'm throwing up. They would,
especially my training
1193
00:55:23,110 --> 00:55:26,405
and if it helps you out
go check it out might be fun
1194
00:55:26,405 --> 00:55:29,576
again, thinking whether I do want
a separate podcast and whatnot
1195
00:55:29,576 --> 00:55:31,452
depending on timeframes.
And I was still going
1196
00:55:31,452 --> 00:55:32,494
to talk about that.
Well, we'll see.
1197
00:55:32,494 --> 00:55:35,498
We'll see you on that.
I hope you have enjoyed me more.
1198
00:55:35,498 --> 00:55:38,168
Lets us back outdoors
this last month, a month
1199
00:55:38,168 --> 00:55:39,210
and a bit that
we haven't done this.
1200
00:55:39,210 --> 00:55:41,170
So hopefully plenty of trails
to come out of this
1201
00:55:41,170 --> 00:55:43,130
and you enjoy it.
And for all the haters
1202
00:55:43,130 --> 00:55:45,215
who for sure will be
there, I'm enjoying seeing you.
1203
00:55:45,215 --> 00:55:46,800
I actually thought of responding
to one of them,
1204
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,094
those talking to you about it.
I thought, I'm going to
1205
00:55:49,094 --> 00:55:51,306
respond to it directly. But look,
I appreciate nonetheless
1206
00:55:51,306 --> 00:55:54,601
that the bear at least, but just.
Kind of amusing. Oh, fine.
1207
00:55:54,601 --> 00:55:56,811
I'm using and sometimes I go,
look, it's kind of good.
1208
00:55:56,811 --> 00:55:59,606
It actually increases
the throughput of probably people
1209
00:55:59,606 --> 00:56:02,442
coming to check out our podcast.
So to the haters,
1210
00:56:02,442 --> 00:56:04,152
thank you very much.
We more want to take.
1211
00:56:04,152 --> 00:56:06,737
