[Assistant] No, it doesn't. But, uh, the last one, Ronald Reagan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, he played a round of golf at Augusta National in 1983. An armed gunman drove his truck through an entrance gate and took five hostages in the Pro Shop demanding to speak to Reagan. Uh, two hours later, they negotiated with him. The man was arrested. No one was hurt, but he served three years in prison, which seems short to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I was going to ask, I mean, obviously none of us are qualified to be president. Our wives are more qualified. So if we were the first gentlemen, what would be our cause? Like everyone has a cause.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm sure way more people do it for music than comedy, but I only know my world. And then I've started doing, I would listen to you guys and then you, they play, you're like, this is a really good, it's all these, I'm getting better with music. Yeah, that's good though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, it's, uh, yeaah, like, I do YouTube music, and then it's Spotify and all this, so you just listen, and it's just like music like Dana Shea. And so it's a wide variety, it's, uh, uh, Vance Joy. I like Vance Joy. That pops up on you guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shay suggested this to me. Dan and Shay suggested this to me. I think they're bad guys. It's, it's who people think you compare to, which is kind of funny that we, like we have no control over that. And it's just being like, you like this, you probably like this. And then you figure out, and if you go listen to it, you might hear something that you're like, oh, I can't stand that guy. And you're like, well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At a Houston's actually, the restaurant. Uh, that's where he does most of his shows.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So as always, Shay, we read comments to open the podcast. As we do here. As we do here at Nate Land. Welcome. You're one of the Nate Landers. So, first up, Torin Shanta.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The answer is unequivocally more enjoyable. This is some big words I got there. Watching Aaron flex his college minor in basket case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Read more quotes from the office than the actual philosophers. All while Nate is having absolutely none of it was unbelievable. One of my favorite episodes yet. Keep up the great work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did, uh, so yea, they call him all crazy names.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was almost as if I was becoming dumber as the episode progressed. At what point I thought that's the opposite of learning. Luckily when Nate mentioned Aristotle eating at Chili's, that kept me going till the end. Even your shows are horribly rambling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're hilarious. I do think whenever you guys have a guest, the show tends to have some direction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Favorite podcast yet? Also, if everyone looked the same, I think the world would be pretty similar. Humans would just find another way to def- definturate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Differentiate? Differentiate. I needed that one. I got a way to di- I'm different. And then machiated. I'm different. I'm different. Differential. Like clothing or language.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. And so is it better or worse? Shay, go ahead. Shay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I teach medieval literature and was thrilled to see that you did an episode on the middle ages.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, it can be hard to think of subplans as a teacher. So it's great to have your middle ages episode in my back pocket in case I need it. I plan on sharing your philosophy episode with one of my coworkers so he can have a sub plan for his class too. So like if you have a substitute teacher, they would just put on our episode. Dude, we're a change of mind over here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I took a picture of my sources so you could see that you have now made it as an official educational podcast. The quote I used from the podcast was from Aaron, so I sure hope his time at Notre Dame was legit and I didn't just flunk this paper. So this dude, dude, we're a source. We're a source on a natural.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's graduating. It's a big grade, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let us know, uh, what your grade was Clayton. I want to know how, how, how did it go? That's pretty fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Kat Rockwell. I feel like there wasn't enough acknowledgement of errands in 1900. God says, Nietzsche's dead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I feel like there wasn't an acknowledgement of Aaron's, in 1900, God said, Nietzsche's dead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I'll keep a lookout from here on out. Uh, Robert Hart or Hartee. I love how Nate keeps referring to the standard 12 ounce can of pop as the little ones. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Laura told me, I keep saying they're 12 ounces, but they're seven and a half ounces. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, but we, I do sometimes get a 12 ounce of bottles, but then she, lately I've been drinking the seven and a half of the can. Did you think that those, the bottle and the can were the same size?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this last episode, Nate mentioned a time when he forgot what a chair was. There's a name for that according to Wikipedia.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Semantic satiate, uh, satiation is a psych, psychological phenomenon. Whoa. Much like this sentence. Let's take the long way around, don't we? Uh, in which repeated, uh, repetition causes a word or phrase to temporarily lose meaning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For the listener, who then perceives the speech as repeated meaningless sounds. So that is, so I was something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow. Yeah, so I looked for an Easter, I looked for a chair. I was supposed to, the Easter basket was under, near a chair. My parents told me when I was a kid. And I kept thinking about the word chair so much that I forgot what a chair actually was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Greg Rogers, chest of drawers, not Chester. Chester drawers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a chest of drawers. Did I say chest of drawers?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nate's philosophy should be words are hard instead of all words matter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what I get for making fun of them. Feast for thought!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what it's about. That's why we do The Podcast.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and we always sit out in our driveway, uh, night, you know, those nights when it's like 50 degrees, it feels wonderful. You want a little fire going. You're wearing your Mack Weldon. We're wearing our Mack Weldon. And then the, but the hard problem that we have, I was annoyed with that kind of thing is like the smoke. You always smell like smoke. I don't mind smelling like smoke if I'm out in the wood, if I'm like doing something, but it's like, you go sit out there in a driveway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How great is that? The fire we saw, the fire is unbelievable. It makes it beautiful.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean we unwrapped it and built a fire very quickly. Laura did it, uh, super fast. The stands are great because they let cool air pass under the pit. That way you can use it on wood or, uh,

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know. So Chris Pratt posted, uh, it was him and his wife, uh, Catherine, uh, Arnold Schwarzenegger's daughter, uh, is who he's married to. And then, uh, I believe her name is Catherine and they, she, uh, they, it was their favorite song, but they said 10 dozen hours and they tagged Justin Bieber.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Aaron's got his own podcast, Aaron Land. Okay. And Aaron's doing this podcast. I didn't know you were going to do one too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thanks for some hearing of it. It's their song. That's incredible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's where you can tell, so when you do something, when you do a song like that, uh, that was y'all's probably, that was like the, your,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so when you, when you do do a song like that and you get like Bieber to do it, is that, that's what, is that what musicians are trying to do? Like, especially y'all are coming along, y'all are doing great. You're doing huge, huge places.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not like necessarily you need Justin Bieber, but obviously Justin Bieber is huge. And so if you get him, then you get all those fans and then they get to hear you. So many more people are going to hear that song because it's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you're, yeah. So Scooter, uh, what's his name? Scooter Braun? Yeah. Uh, he does everybody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, so yea, that's, you're with him under his umbrella, so it's, but he knows it's good to Beaver to do one of your songs. Sure. But it does have to fit, and it needs to be like, yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well that's the thing where you can, uh, people can text you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's a good way to be in contact. It's very personal. Being able to keep up with people. So, you were from Arkansas, where at in Arkansas?

[Assistant] But there's a country that does. And so I believe it. Uh, they, uh, so you grew up, what I always think that's funny is I don't know, I don't know how many people always know this, uh, but it's a, I mean, you grew up on a farm. Yeah. Like, I mean, real, you're real Arkansas. Very Arkansas. You're not, you know,

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Standing on top of a car and you're like, I mean, that's the dumbest animal, but how did he figure out how to get on that car? That's also genius. Like why did he get on that car?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There is nothing more than I hope someone writes in and says that that's not the call for Calvin. Your family made up their own call.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you were born in 91? Yeah. So you were 9. I think he was, yeah. So you were barely.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought the same thing with Andy Griffith because it was always, it was black and white.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I just never thought that it was like, we've talked about here that it came out in the forties or something, the fifties, sixties. Yeah, that's crazy. I thought it was even like fifties. It's still one of the best shows of all time. It's unbelievable. That would be, is that how you grew up? That's how we picture it. Yes. Yeah.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. When you really think about it. Cause it's, it's kind of, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause they'd see, when did you start singing? And they were like, oh, just in all those competitions, you were winning them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 10 minutes. Yeah, that guy, he, he said 10 minutes. No, he was there one for, I think it's like a tourist. Yeah, you just go, you're just going to do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. He's awesome. He's a, he's a master. He's a golfer. John Dennis golfer. And, uh, I was just talking to someone about him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Crazy because everybody kind of knows what we're talking about. Is he the most outside of Tiger? Is he the most famous golfer in the world? Not counting like Jack Nicklaus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Does, uh, so, but he, John Daly, uh, they're, I mean, say how crazy, maybe the most talented golfer to ever live as well. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pure talent. His son is very, very talented.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. It was, John Daly just kind of, you gotta think of all the people that don't watch golf know who he is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everybody that watches golf or even somewhat aware of golf knows.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phil Mickelson, they definitely know John Daly. No one's going to want who's John Daly. So you got all those people, everybody that would know them, and now you got to look at the people that know nothing about golf.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, and you're thinking the people who know Jack Nicholas are dying off and younger people don't know him as well? I mean, the people that are not into golf, I don't, yeah, I mean, who, yeah, if you're, John Daly is still around, like you still see his hair, you still see his...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's got such a specific look. Theo Von, that's what Theo Von gets. I mean, Theo Von's got such a, the mullet and the specific look like anywhere he goes, you're like, yeah, that's the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright. Let me wrap this up. Yea, somewhat. I mean, there was a way, way more. No, there's a couple more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did he grow? He did. Turns out he did grow. Turns out he grows every night. I gotta watch this movie. This looks incredible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, alright. Thank you everybody for listening. As always, we love you. Bye.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ted Alexander has a great joke about he loves the World Cup, in case he learns every four years where his neighbors are really from. He just paints them all Mexican and then he finds out he's actually from Argentina.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then the next week, I think two different uh, women wrote in and said they'd love to meet Harrison and get to know him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He knows you went to private school. That's why he's saying that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can I ask Aaron what question you get asked the most about the podcast?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think they wanted to figure out what my problem was. The, uh, leaks viewed the Christmas episode. Wow. Which makes sense, I mean, you're not gonna watch that in July.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, uh, most comments from any episode, stand-up comedy episode, 373 comments, that's just for YouTube.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause I think we asked people to submit, cause that was a two-parter. And we said, submit your stand-up questions for next week. The second most, and it'll soon be the first most, was last week's on the human body because of the hello folks, let's go folks. People are fired up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the study of the human mind and its functions, especially those affecting behavior. And then this article said that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Comedians are the closest thing to psychologists because psychologists test how people react to certain things in the world and they do experiments and comedians do that every night when they tell new jokes. They get immediate feedback on whether or not audiences like jokes, don't like jokes and why they do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's said that in some ways comedians are better because they understand people better than psychologists and are often more right than psychologists.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You've noticed, like an experiment would be, you've told jokes about your wife and some people have thought they've come off as too mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the crowd was tired. We just got off work. It's July 4th weekend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He loves me. When TV shows first started in the 50s, TV executives were doing tests on sitcoms and they didn't have live studio audiences and they would just do it without a laugh track and people were testing that these shows aren't funny. Then they figured out a laugh track


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Same show, just put a laugh track on it and people started finding the shows funny. Cause they learn laughter is a communal thing that makes people more, uh, when you hear laughter, it makes you want to laugh more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Same show, so that's like a psychological experiment they did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They did a psychological study on comedy clubs and what makes the best comedy club.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, uncomfortable seats. They found if people were in comfortable seats, they relax too much and don't laugh as much. Well, they jam you in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So some famous psychological experiments, they did a study on conformity and how people will just go along with the pack and they-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's the same principle, maybe. They, uh...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They would look at a chart and say which one of these lines is the same length as that line. And if people, if you asked these people alone, they would majority time would get it right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if you put them in a group, they would place actors who would purposely give the wrong answer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They would also say it was the wrong answer just because they thought, well, if that guy says it's that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I would argue on that poll that you did about hello folks, let's go folks. Whoever the second answer is, I feel like audiences always cheer more. I feel like they get going and then for whatever reason, it's always the last one that they cheer the most for.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, they're telling us, uhm, so how we value beauty, they did a test and they put a, one of the world's best violinist who people had paid hundreds of dollars just to see him perform and they put him on a Washington DC subway station as a homeless person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was playing a three and a half million dollar violin and no one would stop to listen. Everyone went past him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the false consensus effect is when we overestimate how much everyone else agrees with us, uhm, because we only surround ourselves with people. This happens really a ton now with social media and TV news. We think everyone agrees with us because we surround ourselves with only people who agree with us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, in a series of experiments, researchers found that those who thought about a backup plan did worse than those who had not thought about a plan B.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With those who realize they have options, their motivation to succeed the first time dropped. So researchers said you're more successful if you don't have a backup plan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I think you would, I mean, you moved to New York, uh, with that mindset, right? I didn't go to college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you say that's true, though, for guys who didn't make it, maybe they...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I remember you called me one time, you said at church that you watched a video where this guy talked about how he was in a band and he was enjoying his career, but he wanted to give it up. Do you remember this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just focus on his family and the Lord. And you told me, I mean, it sounded such a great story, you said, I guarantee you that guy wasn't good enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They created one to see how quickly we embrace roles. Imagine you get to that jail and you're like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So they assigned half the students to be, there's a research group to be guards, and the other half to be prisoners. So for two weeks, they had to do these roles like legit. And after six days, they had to cancel this experiment because things were getting so out of hand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the prisoners were accepting it. They'd both just taken on their role as, as what they were. And it just shows how quickly power can go to your head or lack of power can. They had to, they had to stop the whole thing. Shut it down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You weren't ready? No. It's supposed to show how if you look at their history at some of the people who did mean things to others and say, I would never do that. They were saying, if you ever got in that power position, you don't know what you would do. It might go to your head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, negative bias. Our brain has trained itself to quickly look for bad things more than good. So if your coworker compliments you for your presentation, you'll remember something mean they say to you much more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To fill balance, we need at least five good comments to one bad comment to balance out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They did a test and they, they made subjects do a very boring task and they said, we'll pay you to tell other people it's really interesting and get them to come do it. And we'll give you, they told some people we'll give you a dollar, they told some people we'll give you $20 to convince people that this is really fun, come and do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So then they quiz, even though they're lying, they quiz the people afterwards why you did it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People who got a dollar, he convinced themselves that this was fun because a dollar is not worth lying, but in their head they had to convince themselves. Cause they're embarrassed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I guess. And they're trying to convince themselves like, I don't know, that was kind of fun. So yeah, why not? So it's, uh, it just shows the difference in our demeanor as far as money is involved.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They just, I don't know, they looked at how people will convince themselves of something that's not true just to justify in their head to their brain that it was a good reason for lying. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, they did a study on people who followed authority and they, uh, told everyone that, uhm, you're gonna ask these people a set of questions. If they get it wrong, you have to give them a shock. And if they keep going, you increase the electric shock. Now the people who were, they were shocking were actors, this wasn't real, but the,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The whole thing was to see how far people would go if someone in authority told you to do this. And people went to the point where they'd shock enough, enough to kill a person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're not being shocked, but the people don't know that, but they're following authority. This was done after, uh, World War II, after the Holocaust to show how the Nazis- Probably pick a better time to do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some had stuttering problems, some didn't, some were fine, but they split them up and one group gave them positive encouraging feedback and they improved in their life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whether they studied or not, they told them, they disparaged them, they said they had speech issues, you're, they really put them down. And those people, the rest they're, Aaron.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In 2007, half a dozen of the former students got a payout from the state of Iowa for what they'd endured because of lifelong psychological and emotional scars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they were wanted to see how they would go out in life. It just showed how verbal, yea, people verbally berated German.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What was the point of that? I think they had to have a few kids that really stuttered so the other kids didn't catch on that something's up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well I think if you had all stutterers and you say you're terrible and they continue to stutter like, well what does that prove?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shows the long-term effects of people's verbal, what they say to you, I guess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, so we'll do one more. This was recently in 1997, a psychologist did a study on how quickly someone could fall in love. And he came up with a set of 36 questions that if you ask each other across the table,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They did it and these two people fell in love with each other and got married and then people have done it years later and it's worked. It's also helped marriages that were falling apart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do you feel about your relationship with your mother?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are these for her? They go back and forth asking each other. It's supposed to last 90 minutes and then you stare at each other's eyes for 4 minutes. The guys kept looking down some.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, so Dr. Gil Greengross wrote an article for Psychology Today about the intelligence of comedians. And so the average IQ score is 100.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They sample 55 male comedians and they range from 115 to 160 with the average of 138.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it was probably like in the 80s or something. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They did a psychological test on, uh, timing of jokes and when jokes are the funniest and when they're too soon. They did it in a tweet version. So this was at Texas A&M University.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they, uh, had 1,064 participants online for this. So, a tweet. So this was, the tweet was from Hurricane Sandy. They created a Hurricane Sandy account and the tweet was,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just blew the roof off of this olive garden, free breadsticks for everyone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 1064 participants. Before Hurricane Sandy hit, people were loving it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, it was least funny 15 days after Hurricane Sandy hit landfall. But then it started slowly building again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was at its highest point of humor 36 days after landfall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, probably the most famous, I guess, psychological experiment was Pavlov's dog. You guys heard of this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Brings his dog with him. Brings his dog. So he learned how an outside stimulus can lead to an involuntary response. So he noticed that his dog started salivating for food even when he just heard


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everyone says it's a dinner bell, actually it wasn't a bell, it was other stimulus, but he used to ring this- A lot of people talk and argue about this regularly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean I took one psychology class. Oh yea, in the class. High school or college. Yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he would ring, uh, something and it would make the dog salivate for food because he would always, at first he would always feed him. Then he just started doing it and the dog just started salivating. He really didn't see the food. So it's, it shows that you can create, uh, an outside stimulus from something. I would think the, go ahead Aaron.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They did a study to see if delayed gratification can be a predictor of future life success. So they would put children between the ages of 3 and 5 in a room with a treat, either a marshmallow or a cookie. And they would tell them, if you wait 15 minutes,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And don't eat this cookie, then we'll give you two treats. And then they see who could do it and who can't. And the ones who could do it and wait usually went on to have higher SAT scores and went on to more success. So they just tracked them forever? There's a long study. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Psychologist named Walter Mischel. I don't know where he's from.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the bystander effect. We've talked about this in a previous episode when, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there's been a lot of like, crimes that have happened where bystanders, everyone stands around because they think someone else will step in. And in this case, where they put, uh, participants in a room to take a test and they put smoke into the room. And if you're alone taking a test,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But then they would put a group of people in the room and they'd have some actors and they all know what's, that's nothing to worry about and nobody would get up. And then those people who don't know about it would just stay in the room. Cause I think, well, nobody else is freaking out. So I guess it's okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Dunning-Kruger effect. Oh, you know this. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dunning-Kruger Effect is when people believe they're smarter and more capable than they really are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It also talks about people who are genuine experts in one area tend to believe they're also experts in other areas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, uh, Pygmalion effect? You know this one?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a study where researchers told teachers that certain students had higher potential based on IQ tests.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They made it up, like, they just told the teachers that, and these students are more bright, these are less, and then it ended up becoming true because teachers gave them more intention, in fact, it basically is self-fulfilling prophecy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now this actually wasn't making people be in car crashes, but they made people watch a car accident and then they worded it differently to see if you could mislead people into believing stuff that didn't really happen based on the way you word it. So they would ask some people, how fast was the car driving at the time of impact?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then they asked the other ones, how fast was the car going when it smashed into the other car?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the people that you said smash into, they thought the wreck was much worse than it really was. And said there was much more glass than there really was. So they say like interrogators can use this in a bad way. The media can misconstrue stuff by the way you word stuff. So it was just a study on that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At Stanford, which we already covered the first one at Stanford, 72 nursery age children were given a doll.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was given a white rabbit and he played with it. He had no reaction. So then they started banging stuff behind him to scare him whenever the white rabbit entered the room and the boy started crying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So over time, anytime he heard a loud noise or metal pipe, he would start freaking out. And anytime he saw a white rabbit or anything close to that, like a set of beard, anything, he started crying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, often like if you have a phobia, like, you know, I don't know why I'm scared of this or whatever, it could be something from your childhood.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, we're at the, uh, I don't know what time you want to wrap this up, but, uh, we still got those questions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we talked about previously about a study that said that the scientist said you can make anyone fall in love if they read 36 questions to each other and then stare at each other's eyes for four minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had trouble saying folks this weekend on stage. Oh, you said it? Well, no, I didn't say it like saying hey folks on stage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, it was like, uh, it's kind of like a, you know, like the fast food kind of place, but a restaurant. Yeah, a little bit. A server. Yeah, a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so I was saying that on stage, uh, I actually just changed it. Because I was talking about O'Charlie's before and I just made it O'Charlie's after.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I've been, I did that joke. Silver war. Every time I say it, I think about it. I just want to be done. I'm almost done telling that joke. And so I still have it, but, uh, I say silver war. Yeah. And so it sounds like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did pretty good this weekend, Huntsville. Uh, I was able to do like 40, 45 minutes new. So, not saying it's all great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a, I would say half of it feels pretty good. Uh, so anybody come to these club shows, it's doing, you know, I think I can get to 40, 45, you know, around there of new. And then, uh, I only, you know, did probably 15, 20 from the special.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, uh, but the other, the other shows Friday and Saturday was, you know, you could tell, like it wasn't, it wasn't, a lot of people were waiting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause they were so close, I guess to, you know, we're in Appleton, Wisconsin coming up. Uh, so, but it was good. Yeah. Uh, yeah. Special's been good. Everybody's been very nice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of people, uh, you know, a lot of people reached out. A lot of people have been very, you know, cool about it. Their views have been very nice. You know, it's all, it's all crazy. It's all nerve wracking. You just wait for like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, uh, yeaah, that was cool. Yeaah. There was a lot of, yeaah, I mean, it's definitely...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the response over the Tennessee kid, the Tennessee kid obviously was, the response was very, the response is always good, but you can just tell, you know, I don't know, it's kind of interesting. It's just different. It's a lot more, you know, it's a good thing. It's wild. It's crazy. It's wild.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, alright everybody. Uh, as always, thanks for commenting. Uh, you know, all this YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, Apple Podcasts, Reviews. Nate Landon, natebargetzi.com. Uh, also we're doing a live show. We've mentioned, I think both shows are sold out at Zany's.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the goal of it. I think that would be the best for a live show is to do something like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we're gonna film it, so you better see it. And then, uh, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you want to email those specifically for that live show, if you're not going to be there, or even if you are going to be there, maybe you don't want to ask the question, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the microphone, uh, email, uh, naitlan and naitbargetzi.com and just put in a subject live podcast, uh, so we know to pull it out. Uh, Josh Oller, Oller.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Dusty, uh, yeah, Dusty was a great guest. And then Dusty's had a bit of a run. He's had a bit of some problems since then. Yeah. He's like publicly said it. Right. We're not. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, so keep Dusty in your prayers, thoughts, whatever you do. Uh, but yeaah, yeaah. I think he's doing good. Yeaah. I don't want to alarm anybody. Be like, well that was the last time Dusty will ever be on. Let me start episode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dusty is dead, everybody. Uh, no, he's, uh, he's doing good recovering from that. And, uh, so yeah, everybody think, uh, think about him. Davidwr99, I watched because I saw Nate on Rogan's podcast. You guys owe me two hours of life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What was your response to that guy? I was like, welcome to the show. Welcome to the show, David. This is what it is, dude. How did he, you know, what did he want?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't see how you could go two hours into this and you, you keep thinking like something's gotta, like they, you know, like do you think it's a plot twist?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He can still do it. Like we think the real host come tap us on the shoulder and we let them do an actual podcast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, dude, we are a time waster here. That's what this is. That's what it's about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think they all know. Most schools, besides the one that it called me, which that joke I have about the bus joke, the lady from the school did call me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But one thing that I don't say in it is, uh, I did say, I go, I'm her dad, is exactly how I responded. And the lady goes, I know, your wife didn't answer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So there's, there's the truth to it. She did try my wife and my wife wasn't answering, so it was a backup call.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Samuel House. My wife and I just watched a special one both in tears at the part about being in charge of the family now. My dad had his pants fall down in the Best Buy parking lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like I'm not only in charge of the family, but also his wardrobe. That's so great. Man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, just like, I think he opened it. I think he went to the back of the car then just forgot about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm going to start talking with my, our, my parents and their, and the, the Dentons are, uh, long, my parents' best friends.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You are, yes, that's even crazy. So the Dentons, uh, Wayne and Lyndon Denton, who are our family's best friend. I mean, they've been our best friends. It's like my, you know, since I was a kid, I was, I don't know, my whole life. And, uh, so we randomly find out he's related to the Dentons. How, how are you related?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How crazy is that? That's the South for you. That's the South. The South is just that. If you're from here, too, I feel like it's even more, like it's something, you know, another way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rita H. Richard Klein is the actor who played Larry on Three's Company. I'm not sure this fact will make Brian feel all that much better about saying Richard Klein instead of Robert Klein.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I rewatched Entourage. It's a great show. It's a great show. Could not air today.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The jokes, obviously the jokes that, I mean it's wild, dude. And it's 2006! It's not like, you know what I mean, if you watch Eddie Murphy, Delirious or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're like, yeah, well that was 1985. This is 2006. And then you're like, dude, it's turned, I mean, quick. And that show, there's no way. I mean, I would love it. I love Entourage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they, but they're, uh, you listen to that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The victory podcast about that and they're, uh, I think they were talking about like, could there be another one? It's like, you would just have to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It'd be much different. It'd be tough. I mean, like, you know, them talking about girls and I mean, all, I mean, it's wild, dude. Uh, queso, queso scoreboard. Queso? Queso. Queso. Queso.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I have a friend who played for the Washington generals. They would play hard for 95% of the game, then give up at the end. So the globe charters win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I wonder, that game they won, they must have just got too far ahead. Is that what we said?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's pretty good though. 95% basically being like, yeah, we go hard until, you know, as hard as they can go. I mean, they got to let them do like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jake Hammett, Bill Elliot's nickname is Awesome Bill from Dawsonville. He's from Dawsonville, Georgia. Best nickname ever. Yeah, that is true. Awesome Bill from Dawsonville.

[Assistant] Willard Garrett. Hello folks. I'm from Auburn, Alabama, right next to Dusty's hometown of Opelika. What did he say? Opelika. Opelika.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hometown of Opelika, there was a kid named Tristan Pittman who was by far the best athlete of our age.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He would dominate every year playing running back. Our last year playing Tristan hit a growth spurt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tristan decided, Tristan's coach decided to play him at offensive line and run a fumble Ruski every play. The quarterback would set the ball on the ground and the right guard Tristan Pittman would pick the ball up and run for a touchdown every single play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean that's, that's good coaching right there. You just figure, I gotta get him the ball. And he's like, you want me to cut weight? He goes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now I think I got a better way and then just drop the ball on the ground.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, the other, the other team, the other team's gotta be like, I swear to you. Like some guys sounds like a crazy person. You go, I swear to you, that ball's not, the guy on the line has the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and be like, hey, what are you doing? That's crazy. Yeah, that might not be, is it illegal?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chandler Starks, you guys talking about the meteorite that hit the lady reminds me of a time when my dad had what he thought was a meteorite crash through the roof of his office. He bragged about it and was in the paper and even the local news station with what everyone called the Starks Rock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ian Renfro, I saw you in a big theater last year, but now I could not even be more excited to see you perform in Appleton, Wisconsin at a smaller club, just praying you don't bring Goutfoot or Ned Schneebly as an opener.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love them both, however I feel like they're unique comedy brands of awkwardly interacting with guests and audibly breathing into microphones is better suited for a podcast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Got a close up. We got slow motion of it. We should get, we could get some nice slow motion of just. I'll do a slow mo cut of it. Dusty not realizing it's happened because he's.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] About to have surgery at that point, like he's, you know, he's got other stuff on his mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, as, as everybody knows, I, uh, so, uh, you know, I talked about quitting diet, diet soda last week. I, I'll be honest with you, I've had only one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not bad. That is good. For quitting, I had one. The night of my special, which the day I was supposed to quit, I did good all day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, uh, that night, like Laura had to go to her, Laura and Harbor went to their, uh, family thing. And I was like, I had to do still some more stuff. So I actually was just stay home alone, which I tell you what, when you're.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As a husband and a father, you're like the greatest night of my life. It's the best gift I could be given. It's just like to be like, you just get to be alone. Like, I mean, you feel it is like your parents going out of town. You're just like, I mean, I'm upstairs, you know, like it's Kramer when Jerry leaves and he's like doing all the different stuff. I like playing video games for a little bit. I'm watching shows. I'm like doing all kinds of stuff. Uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It had about the biggest diet coke you could have. They have great ice and, uh, had a sonic blast. But that was the only one? That was the only one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be honest. I'm not even, not that I'm eating great. It has made me eat better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Also would help if he just remembered to pick his son up from school. Maybe he should work on that. Maybe that should be one of those things, you know, to remember to pick his kid up. Uh, Heather Esposito, Sriracha Veggie Straws.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't even know what that is. Yeah, it sounds healthy. Maybe it's not bad. Sriracha veggie straws.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, maybe she's too healthy. And she's like, I need to get some more bad food in my life. But maybe they're bad. I don't know if they're good or bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See if they're good. Maybe they're not good. Oh, I've seen these things before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's probably like everything. It's probably a very fun snack that you, you assume is healthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Nate Knight beer for three months.

[Assistant] So I hope you already started, Nate. So we got more, uh, on here. We'll keep checking in with you guys to see how you guys are doing. Uh, so make sure, I've only had one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Heather, you better have only had one, I'll give you one bag of veggie straws, you better not have gone crazy, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, uh, let me get into this. Uh, so as you know, like I just said, I, uh, last podcast I have cut out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Diet Pepsi, all diet, all sodas, and I've been trying to cut down on carbs, sugar, and unhealthy food and realized that basically, uh, you just can't eat anything anymore. You really can't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 0 grams of sugar, 13 to 14 grams of protein, only 4 net grams of carbs, only 1400 calories a serving, it's uh, magic spoons, keto friendly, gluten free, grain free, soy free,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Low carb, GMO free, I mean it's everything that you want it to be. Magic Spoon is releasing two amazing new flavors this month for a limited time only. They're talking about Cookies and Cream and Maple Waffle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's what it's about. The flavors are great. You can mix cocoa and peanut butter, tastes exactly like a peanut butter cup.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Magic Spoon is so confident in their product it's backed with 100% happiness guarantee.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where were we Huntsville? Huntsville this weekend and then now we're going our way with last weekend we're going to Appleton, Wisconsin. So I'm bringing my buddy from New York City, uh, who's been on the road with me these two weeks, staying with me, sleeping on his Helix mattress.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, uh, Ian, lucky for you, it is this young man right here, so I hope you like him. Uh, Gary Beater, or just to call him Gary Vider.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] V-I-D-E-R, Gary Veeder. Me and Gary started together, or, I mean, I always say that and you're like, nah, you're not, you're not, you're not, we're not the same age, right? Even though we look like it, uh, cause he shaves his head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, no, but me and Gary, uh, I mean, we've been friends for, I don't know, 15 years or something like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he was, Gary was very, very funny. And so we, I remember seeing Gary and we talking and then, yeah, we just run around to clubs and, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, I don't know how to come up with this stuff. Like there's not, it's hard to find a, like you can't just like a, when you write new jokes, it's not like there's a falsa that you're like, you turn it on. You feel after every special, you will never be able to write anything ever again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, even though I have new stuff now, I'm still, you're like, I don't, there's no, I don't know how I came up with this stuff. You're, it's, just happens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's good. We talked a lot about this, about, you know, I'm a big transition, like, so it's like stuff leading, making stuff lead into the next things you're going to talk about. And I cannot have it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I can, that's the jokes that I have trouble with, the jokes that I have trouble when I don't lead into the joke very easily. Uh, you know, sometimes you, sometimes you gotta find a way to do it. Sometimes it's natural and sometimes you gotta somehow


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I don't, I don't want, I don't want to laugh for that. I don't want to laugh because of that. Because that, to me, feels like a trip. So like, yes, it is funny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And people have done that and comics have done it. And so I don't think I should have to rely on a laugh for that reason. Like I, you know, I'm not saying I don't ever do anything like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, if a joke doesn't work, it's very easy to be like, well, that one was terrible. Like, and that gets a laugh. That's, and that's kind of looked at as like, as a trick. I'm not saying I don't do that as a, like, I would say that on stage because when you're up there, you're like, all bets are off dude, this joke didn't work. So you, I, I, I, there's, there's stuff you do that's like, but I don't want to ever do anything that's going to, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I would, if I did it, it's like, you don't want to rely on that. Cause then, I just think you rely on it, then that sticks in your act. Like you can tell when someone, uh, you know, sometimes has something and they,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not like act like it's, you know, like spontaneous when it wasn't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's okay to get a laugh off that, but it's like the final product.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what comedy is, it's like that. Like how do you make these two things go together? How do I make them seem like they go together when they don't? You know, without being, you know, without saying, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] into the set. But like this week in the Eagles story, we've talked about Eagles on here where that joke came. Let's talk about one joke that I've brought over from, not everything's from, it has been good. Like I haven't, I have a ton of podcast stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's true. Like if it goes, if it flows too much. I mean, you, you like everything to flow with like, you know, I go, you know, daughters, you know, and the special was, uh, you know, like daughter stuff into my parents, into, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wife stuff. And like it's like, so all that's put into like, so you're just making it all kind of go together. And then it makes it, I think it makes it easier for the audience to, uh, relax.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, and it makes it harder for them to tell where the jokes are at.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, you're trying to hide them, you know? All comedy is, is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, just mixed in. You know what's funny is I've had people too...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's just been a couple comments, but like I know people are like, you know, they're also like, sounds like this guy's in a bad marriage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, and I think I want to, I do want to address it on stage, like, or maybe even the next special. Cause I know some people just will hear that's the next special, but that's always so frustrating to me to be like, what, what do you think? You know, I mean, you guys here know Laura, you've seen Laura, we've talked to her. I have a wonderful family. I love her more than anything. I've been with her since I was 21.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, in this special, there's one thing that I said that I kind of wanted, I wish I would have. I'm talking about us not fighting with our daughter, and neither one of, we're only talking through Harper to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Through each other. And I did like, that was like a little kind of tag. That's straight up just trying to be funny and trying to say stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's the only thing that I was kind of like, you know, I would have probably taken out just to be like, I don't need that. I don't want that to come off like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I start coming, yeaah. I go, oh yeaah, the podcast. I go, what happened to the waters up there today? I just tried to get something going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I go, mine was a little too warm. And uh, but yea, like people, like that's, you know, it's like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, that's, that's not, I always think that's a comment like that is like someone that's not, they don't know who I am and they don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's like- They don't know comedy yet. They don't know comedy yet. But it's like, yeaah. I used to say this sometimes on the podcast. They'd be like, you guys are just too mean. You're like, comedy is mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I say that in the special, like, the mean speech, it's like, if you know one, if it's out of context, it sounds like a mean speech. Comedy is mean. Everything's mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's not a joke on earth that's, right? That's nice? Is there one that's like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, something's gotta be either I'm dumb, they're dumb, you're dumb, you're wrong, I'm right, like that's the only way you even, otherwise there is no comedy, comedy doesn't exist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's more noticeable. Uh, so, uh, anyway, so yes, so, uh, this week, so me, yeah, me and Gary, Gary's been on a ton of stuff, you can see, uh, uh, he's on America's Got Talent. Yep, finalist. Maybe the top ten finalists.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Did you ever really talk to him or is it just like on stage?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did, so like the whole process, if people don't know about like doing a show like that, uh, so you auditioned, uh, for, where'd you audition at?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and that was like on TV. Like, what's the first time you get on TV? At the first audition? Yeah, the first audition, yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like the coaching, like a coaching trip. It's like, yeah, it's, everybody always has like, I'm, you're, you're more like, I was examined New York guy, like my.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think we all, yeah, cause we all, yeah, and once you hear all the story about it, I think we were all calling you and texting you being like, dude, like this is, you know, it's like, this is the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. There's a picture of Gary and Tom Brokaw.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But don't know exactly. This is Jordan's comeback. Is he number 45? 45.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As a kid, did you love it? Like, or is it like in the moment or would you get tired of it or you? Eventually I got tired of it. But it's fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's enormous because no one's really going to tell a kid no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That works for a lot of scams. If you have your kid there. And then, uh, having a lot of answers. Like you said, like him getting the business cards of those guys that y'all are pretending to be is pretty smart. Cause he knows if someone goes, who are you here with? He's like, Oh, I'm with Johnny and Jim. They're the sports associate. They're over there. Go ask, talk to them about it. Cause he knows you're not going to go talk to them about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's too crazy and I know you're not going to and I'm gonna look at your face and say, and no one wants to be like, I think you're lying to me. Like that's very uncomfortable to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wonder if that's what makes you not say on America's Got Talent you're getting married. Like you're not, like you're, you, you look at.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though that's the truth and it's happening during this moment, you have this story about your dad that you could have probably said America's a town and they would have loved.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the road with cause you're always like, if there's anything that we want to do, like it's like, Hey dude, we need to like check out, like Gary's like, Oh yeah, I'll do it. Like he'll, he'll go talk to anybody and ask anybody anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, you know, stuff that you, I don't know, like you don't want to ask, be like, I wonder if they'll let us do this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, it's all kind of passed the time now. It couldn't really go, right? I mean, like, it's like, is the statues of limitations? Is that what it is? Like, you can't after, I don't know. Is that the way it stands?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd have a lot of nerve to be able to sue. They could end my life there. They have billions of dollars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would think even though, like my fear of if I got in trouble as a kid was my parents.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is a pretty big thing to like, if you're a kid and you don't have the fear of your parents being mad at you, that's.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like working the system. Well, that means a different form of education, to be honest, like in a, in a really, it's just being like, you don't have to do all this stuff. So let's do another, let's figure out another way. You know, I mean, you know, in a way there could be someone listening to this podcast, you're like, wish I had that kind of bond with my dad. Like there's someone there. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Confidence, yeaah. That was blind confidence, I don't know I have that confidence, but confidence is, uh, confidence is everything. If you're confident, you can, like I'm not saying that joke, you can get whatever you want.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, no one knows to question it. No one knows. You can't believe something's happening to you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's almost like where you're dead. Like if you think, you're like, well they're gonna know you're scamming them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They can't, they would never believe that they could be scammed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if you're confidently scamming them, they're like, well, you're not doing it to me, dude. I know I can't be scammed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so it's like on the phone is like easy to hang up, but a lot of stuff your dad was doing was he's looking you in the eyes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So everybody's giving him money and then he's, if someone wants to leave with money, he gives them that other guy's money. Yep.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We, and especially the longer you do this, you talk a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I don't need a lawyer. Obviously I would, I'd probably, you know, it's one of the big words you'd probably get me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think I could talk my way, if I, if I'm back against the wall, I have to do it. I could talk, you know, I could maybe make up some.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's the, yeah, like, so it's not like I could be like, I think I could be a police officer or something like that. It's, but I think I have the tools to talk.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so like, if you give me the time to go like, yeaah, to be very convincing, I think I could be very convincing. I think I could, if I really believed it, I think I could convince you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean that's something you know how to do and I think if you do something like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if I just kind of keep going, no, that's why we did that. We did, you know, it's like you're investing. I promise. Like this dude, this guy, I've never met a guy like this. I never liked anybody. This guy, like I was lucky to even get to meet him. You know, I know a guy invest. You want to invest with like, you're like, this guy's the greatest dude ever, dude. Like there, there, you know, you start saying these kinds of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Weird things they said, like stuff that they can't question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Souljo was so good at running shows and setting these shows up and getting these shows going and he's now created into them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Scam, he's doing legit shows. But like someone that's like, they get better at like that kind of aspect to it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's do that. If you're, so like any of the shows that I've done where my managers were going to be producers on the show, that means I don't have to pay them a commission.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's the deal. They get to be producers. I don't pay them a commission versus he's, he's being a manager and, and then, so he's taken 10 to 20% and extra. And he did that, that whole show. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, that guy kind of, I'm sure there's still bad guys out there, but overall back then a lot of them got flushed out because they were doing that kind of stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You just could, I wonder what that guy's up to now. What's his name? Uh, James Hogue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you could, you could get away with, so like internet just ruined a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, now there's like way more scam artists, but it's like a business now. It's like, you know, you're, it's, it's, it's, I feel like now it's a quantity over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, what is it? No, quantity over quality. It's like, we're going to, we're going to just send a 4,000 emails out. If eight of them work out, then we've made money and then who cares? And we just do that versus back then.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your scam artist, there was art, there was art. I mean, artists, there's art to it. I mean, that's, you know, like what they're trying to come up with. It's, yeah, it's kind of interesting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So they could be like, I feel like this is a scam. You're like, it just happened to Deborah. She had to go. It's no, it's real. You trust me. You got to do one of those things. It's, it's very real. Your choice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They just wanted to do it. I mean just to call, you always think who could these people be that would...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I mean, I would say like, I don't know. It's like, you get caught on the wrong, the right day or you're not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're not, you're not paying attention. You're not aware of what's going on. I mean, that seems insane to actually go there and get that far, but there has to be something in there where they want to do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what I mean, I didn't know he was about a scam artist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like you think you start that with her and you're just kinda like hoping that, you know, it's like kind of goofy and then it becomes real.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's even to show you that everybody wants to fall for that. I mean, there's this girl, she's 37, she's a pretty girl. And if she's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, you know, to be like, disappointed leaders, I mean, I would think, they actually had an idea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, that, it goes, yeah. I mean, that's, at that time, you're like, wow, dude, we're going to buy the Eiffel Tower. Yeah, there's just no way of checking anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that the, ain't there a saying about selling the bridge or something or?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is it like that one's already taken? Yeah, I don't know. How much are they? I mean they-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yeah, like it could be who's selling these stars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that guy was, that's, you know, that's what's crazy is that guy's the real deal. He's like, yeah, you don't be the one that walks out with the thing. They're never going to look for me. Smart. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A guy came up with that, he's like, I'm the reason you named stars and you're like, none of that matters. It just doesn't mean, it's, it's 20, you're paying 20 bucks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, you know, uh, like Elon Musk has some, or you could have had, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, something like that. So you own that tweet, like what's a famous, you know, the tweet. The first tweet ever. The first tweet ever. Is worth running. Yes. And you're like, I, that's my, I own that tweet, even though anybody can look it up online.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, so baby, your dad could fit on all these. It'd be a matter of how you wrote it out to be like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, well it's the idea of more people involved, more problems come. Exactly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or he retired here or something? Yeaah. Yeaah. In Hermitage, I mean, I told Grove Baptist Church where I used to go to church. Kinda crazy, like right there, Minnesota Fats, like such a famous name. Yeaah. And just, you're like, yeaah, right there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. All right. Uh, all right. That was fun. I'd learned. I didn't know. I didn't know all the extreme of all this stuff. That's crazy. That's wild.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think we don't there, but, uh, yeah, if we do go out and check out Aaron Weber, like the grill, Weber. Uh, thank you guys as always. Uh, thanks for watching this special. Always means a lot, truly. See you next week.

[Assistant] As always, uh, it's been, you know, livin' it up. I did shows, so. Where at? Uh, just two, like, private shows, corporate shows, yea. Private people, I can't even talk about it. How'd it go? Paul Allen's cruise ship.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were both good. One was, uh, yeah, one was in, uh, Oklahoma City and, uh, so it was like Zoom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, and they'd be like, uh, I thought it was going to be people there. And they had just like 15 people there. On zoom?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, like 1300 on Zoom. Oh. So I did a show to 15 people, 1300 watching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was like, it was, you know, it was tough. It's just they, they had masks on, like, you know, it's just not, it's not super easy. Uh, and the other one was at a high school, Liberty Christian, uh, high school. And then, uh, it's where Jason Whitten.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This coaching. They made me these cookies. We're going to post it on Instagram. I'll post it on my Instagram. They made cookies with all my jokes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This lady there, very nice. And she makes these cookies. I mean, they're unreal. Like there were, it was like the expired medicine, you know, the Cape Freer Cermeterium and like just all perfectly laid out. It was very cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No. I saw him. I mean, you see him. You see him. He's enormous. Yeah. Uh, I saw him in the crowd, but I didn't really, I only talked to like the people that were running it, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, it's, it's so crazy just to know the high school that you grew up going, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And my, so I went to Donaldson Christian Academy, but they're, uh, we were not, we're never, we're never, we're more of a blue collar private school kind of, uh, and there's a lot of schools in Nashville. I mean, there's this school here called Innsworth in, uh, Nashville. I mean, it is a college campus. I did a show there once, 9.30 in the morning in the auditorium. One of the best shows I've ever done in my life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, high school kids, you know, who knows if they're all too cool to even be in there. And dude, I mean, you could have taped a special. They laughed so hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The theater was set up so good, dark audience, like the lights all off, lights on me. Like, you know, the way you like it set up in a proper theater. And I mean, I was like, good night. There's nothing better than murdering before 10 AM. Like to already be like, you got to murder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dougal. Dougal is, that's more common. Uh, hello, Brian, Aaron, Niblett.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not to brag, but we are pretty phenomenal parents because we've spent years teaching our kids the importance of good comedy. We shouldn't be proud of our


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, we couldn't be prouder of our 15 year old Maddie when she ran downstairs to tell us that she found your podcast. We have not been disappointed. Keep the laughs coming. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's very nice. Yeah. She found, she's in. She gave you the nickname.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jeff Wyatt, really great episode and very rewatchable. Never heard of Adam Ray, but his storytelling, I haven't either, but his storytelling was so natural and funny. He was great at effortlessly pulling out the right word to describe events. I can't mess up the word when they're describing the word.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, like I mess up, he was great at effortlessly pulling out the right word.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's where it's bad, is I mess up in the description, like they're using the sentence to say, like, he's really good at it. Brian and Aaron played it just right, just nice and natural and allowing the guest to shine without feeling the need to contribute or compete.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes being an appreciative, uh, appreciative audience for the storyteller just makes the whole event more fun for everyone. Very enjoyable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's true. I mean, I know I think people have said, like, that y'all don't talk much with them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The guests, but it's, you know, it's a, I, I've known a lot of the guests that we're gonna have, I wanna know them forever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so I'm going to be here. It's, I get to see some of my old friends and it's for people talking. I mean, it can't be, be so much. So it's like, you got to try to do a balance. I mean, people are listening.

[Assistant] So this was Thursday. My family and I live in Gig Harbor, Washington. Our middle school son is currently taking Washington State history and we made him watch the podcast to learn some interesting facts about our state. In fact, he based his Washington State history paper on last week's episode. He almost surely will connect.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's amazing. Did she go, you only got an A because I listened to that podcast because this paper is terrible, but I am a fan of the podcast. That is, that is awesome.
