1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:16,000
*music*

2
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:17,360
So yeah, we're a week late.

3
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:19,360
*makes noise*

4
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,140
Uh, but we were on vacation, so

5
00:00:21,140 --> 00:00:22,320
we're justified.

6
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:23,920
*makes noise*

7
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:24,980
That's all you have to say for

8
00:00:24,980 --> 00:00:25,520
yourself?

9
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:28,560
Oh no, I-I gave him a door.

10
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,520
Cheese quesadilla.

11
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,280
You know what?

12
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:34,650
Somebody is going to try to

13
00:00:34,650 --> 00:00:36,180
send us a cheese quesadilla at

14
00:00:36,180 --> 00:00:37,040
some point.

15
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:38,120
They're gonna be like, "What's

16
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:39,400
your mailing address? We want

17
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,200
to send you a cheese quesadilla."

18
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:45,160
Maybe it's a hypothetical $1,000

19
00:00:45,160 --> 00:00:47,280
cheese quesadilla.

20
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,100
What would be in a hypothetical

21
00:00:49,100 --> 00:00:51,520
$1,000 cheese quesadilla?

22
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,440
The most expensive stinky cheeses.

23
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,120
And-and probably gold leaf.

24
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:58,080
Yeah.

25
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,040
Yeah.

26
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,510
And then there'd probably just

27
00:01:00,510 --> 00:01:01,990
be like a diamond that you-like

28
00:01:01,990 --> 00:01:03,270
is on top just as decoration

29
00:01:03,270 --> 00:01:04,640
that you pick off.

30
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:05,440
*makes noise*

31
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:06,710
You know, cause obviously you

32
00:01:06,710 --> 00:01:07,600
can't eat diamond.

33
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,300
At least it would not be

34
00:01:09,300 --> 00:01:10,840
intelligent for somebody to try

35
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:12,480
to eat diamond unless they

36
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,480
wanted to lose all their teeth.

37
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,000
Which brings us full circle to,

38
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,000
uh, you know, around when we

39
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,760
started this podcast.

40
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,460
So anyway, uh, yeah, we're on

41
00:01:24,460 --> 00:01:26,690
vacation and I-I drew some

42
00:01:26,690 --> 00:01:29,300
inspiration from some things

43
00:01:29,300 --> 00:01:31,440
that we saw on vacation.

44
00:01:32,320 --> 00:01:34,400
First was Alien Java.

45
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:35,680
*laughs*

46
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,430
Which was an interesting coffee

47
00:01:38,430 --> 00:01:39,280
place.

48
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:40,900
Um, very crowded and it has

49
00:01:40,900 --> 00:01:42,380
like three businesses in it

50
00:01:42,380 --> 00:01:44,070
that all managed to survive in

51
00:01:44,070 --> 00:01:45,280
the same space.

52
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,520
So it's a coffee house. Like,

53
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,420
they sell books and like

54
00:01:49,420 --> 00:01:51,350
spiritual stuff. And then they

55
00:01:51,350 --> 00:01:52,320
also sell jewelry.

56
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:52,800
Yeah.

57
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:53,600
It's interesting.

58
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,240
And they had a Pac-Man machine.

59
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,250
And then when we left, we saw

60
00:01:59,250 --> 00:02:03,320
the coolest UAP ever at like 5:15

61
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,360
in the morning.

62
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,210
Except, uh, it wasn't- it was

63
00:02:07,210 --> 00:02:08,780
only a UAP until I pulled up

64
00:02:08,780 --> 00:02:10,520
the internet when we got back

65
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,180
and-and discovered what it

66
00:02:12,180 --> 00:02:13,200
really was.

67
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,370
And I had a theory what it was

68
00:02:14,370 --> 00:02:15,680
and it was a rocket launch.

69
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,550
We got to see a rocket launch.

70
00:02:18,550 --> 00:02:19,370
It was- it was definitely

71
00:02:19,370 --> 00:02:20,570
creepy though, because we- we

72
00:02:20,570 --> 00:02:21,810
had a hard time leaving for a

73
00:02:21,810 --> 00:02:23,260
variety of reasons we won't get

74
00:02:23,260 --> 00:02:23,680
into.

75
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,380
But, yeah, yeah, okay, anyway.

76
00:02:27,380 --> 00:02:28,440
Uh, but we got outside and I

77
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:29,550
happened to look up and I'm

78
00:02:29,550 --> 00:02:31,440
like, "What the hell is that?"

79
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:32,910
And we were just kind of

80
00:02:32,910 --> 00:02:34,610
staring at this thing. I got a

81
00:02:34,610 --> 00:02:36,560
few pictures of it. But, um-

82
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,360
We got pictures of a real life

83
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:40,720
alien UFO.

84
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,040
Well, no, now it's identified.

85
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,080
We- we know that it was-

86
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:44,910
Nah, they don't have to know

87
00:02:44,910 --> 00:02:45,770
that. You just cut that part

88
00:02:45,770 --> 00:02:46,080
out.

89
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:50,610
So anyway. So speaking of UAP,

90
00:02:50,610 --> 00:02:53,920
UFO, um, you know, we've-

91
00:02:53,920 --> 00:02:55,950
We've hinted at discussing this

92
00:02:55,950 --> 00:02:57,420
topic in the past and really

93
00:02:57,420 --> 00:02:59,170
haven't taken the time that it

94
00:02:59,170 --> 00:03:01,120
properly deserves. So-

95
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,950
Aliens. Aliens. Aliens. Real

96
00:03:04,950 --> 00:03:07,230
aliens. As in from off the

97
00:03:07,230 --> 00:03:09,410
world. What do you think about

98
00:03:09,410 --> 00:03:10,480
aliens, sir?

99
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,590
I think that they are alien.

100
00:03:14,590 --> 00:03:17,320
Okay. Uh, and that we probably

101
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,450
have no idea what they look

102
00:03:19,450 --> 00:03:20,480
like and we're

103
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,640
probably completely off. Okay.

104
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:25,280
That right there is exactly

105
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,160
where my brain was starting to

106
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:28,480
go. I'm

107
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:29,970
surprised we're on the same

108
00:03:29,970 --> 00:03:31,580
wavelength as this. I think

109
00:03:31,580 --> 00:03:34,080
that it is- first of all, like,

110
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:35,440
so have you heard of

111
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,540
something called the Drake

112
00:03:37,540 --> 00:03:39,830
equation? No. Okay. So the

113
00:03:39,830 --> 00:03:42,100
Drake equation is, uh, this

114
00:03:42,100 --> 00:03:44,320
idea of a set of

115
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,960
variables that need to- that

116
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,240
you could use if you knew in

117
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,030
order to calculate the amount

118
00:03:52,030 --> 00:03:52,240
of

119
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:54,120
intelligent civilizations that

120
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:55,800
could communicate by radio,

121
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,870
basically. By ways that we can

122
00:03:57,870 --> 00:03:58,640
detect.

123
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,340
Because still a lot of stuff

124
00:04:00,340 --> 00:04:02,280
goes over radio. Uh, that's

125
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,410
really the only way, like, and-

126
00:04:04,410 --> 00:04:05,280
and until we

127
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,420
discover some kind of subspace

128
00:04:07,420 --> 00:04:09,860
communication, it's all radio.

129
00:04:09,860 --> 00:04:11,800
So it's like the planet has to

130
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:12,320
be of a

131
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:13,920
certain- so first of all, how

132
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,590
many stars have planets? How

133
00:04:15,590 --> 00:04:17,480
many of those planets have life?

134
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:18,400
How many of those

135
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:19,910
planets have life that's

136
00:04:19,910 --> 00:04:22,040
intelligent? How, uh, how many

137
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:23,910
planets have intelligent life

138
00:04:23,910 --> 00:04:25,200
that have developed

139
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,510
radio communication? How long

140
00:04:27,510 --> 00:04:29,530
do they on average establish

141
00:04:29,530 --> 00:04:31,980
radio communication? Because it

142
00:04:31,980 --> 00:04:32,560
kind of

143
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,370
goes up and down. Like, right

144
00:04:34,370 --> 00:04:36,130
now, our radio communication

145
00:04:36,130 --> 00:04:38,060
amount is going down. So all of

146
00:04:38,060 --> 00:04:38,240
that

147
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,270
stuff goes into the Drake

148
00:04:40,270 --> 00:04:42,660
equation. But I'm inclined to

149
00:04:42,660 --> 00:04:44,930
agree with you that we tend to

150
00:04:44,930 --> 00:04:46,320
like- like, we're

151
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,330
narcissists here. Yeah. Let's

152
00:04:48,330 --> 00:04:50,250
be honest. Let's be honest. We

153
00:04:50,250 --> 00:04:52,190
like to make ugly aliens. Yeah,

154
00:04:52,190 --> 00:04:52,720
like,

155
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,020
we're- we're narcissists. Not

156
00:04:54,020 --> 00:04:55,150
just that we want to make ugly

157
00:04:55,150 --> 00:04:56,350
aliens, but think about it.

158
00:04:56,350 --> 00:04:56,960
Like, if you

159
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,840
think about alien designs in

160
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:01,120
movies, they tend to have arms.

161
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,120
They tend to have legs. They

162
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,160
tend to walk in

163
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,320
an upright mode like we do. Or-

164
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,480
or have tentacles. Yeah, but

165
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,540
that's- that's an outlier. I

166
00:05:10,540 --> 00:05:11,600
mean, for the most

167
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:12,900
part, like, you watch Men in

168
00:05:12,900 --> 00:05:14,110
Black, the majority of the

169
00:05:14,110 --> 00:05:15,490
aliens are upright and walking

170
00:05:15,490 --> 00:05:16,080
around.

171
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,190
Yeah. You watch the X-Files.

172
00:05:18,190 --> 00:05:20,090
The majority of the aliens are

173
00:05:20,090 --> 00:05:22,400
like your stereotypical grays.

174
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,380
Uh, you know, that they have

175
00:05:24,380 --> 00:05:26,360
the big bulbous heads and they

176
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,520
got the big eyes and all that.

177
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:29,680
Yeah. Oh, okay.

178
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,450
Um, and then, you know, you do

179
00:05:32,450 --> 00:05:34,710
have some aliens that are a

180
00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:37,200
little bit different in some

181
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:38,560
horror films and

182
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,240
stuff like that. But really-

183
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,690
Like aliens. Like- we're really

184
00:05:43,690 --> 00:05:45,660
narcissistic. Now, you could

185
00:05:45,660 --> 00:05:46,400
argue, well,

186
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,450
intelligent life would have to

187
00:05:48,450 --> 00:05:50,120
grow in a gravity similar to

188
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,170
our planet. Well, that's not

189
00:05:52,170 --> 00:05:53,120
necessarily

190
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,650
true. Yeah. Hey, dolphins are

191
00:05:55,650 --> 00:05:57,650
intelligent. Well, and we

192
00:05:57,650 --> 00:05:59,300
constantly downplay their

193
00:05:59,300 --> 00:06:00,800
intelligence. Yeah,

194
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,160
we take it for granted that we

195
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:03,590
are the smartest thing on this

196
00:06:03,590 --> 00:06:04,900
planet because we've built

197
00:06:04,900 --> 00:06:06,160
civilizations and we've

198
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,480
been able to- But- And then

199
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,110
there's the one dinosaur that's

200
00:06:09,110 --> 00:06:11,260
living underground. We- we live

201
00:06:11,260 --> 00:06:12,480
on the land.

202
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,640
Like, and we have opposable

203
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:15,500
thumbs.

204
00:06:15,820 --> 00:06:17,750
Like, dolphins and whales might

205
00:06:17,750 --> 00:06:19,430
be exceedingly smart and

206
00:06:19,430 --> 00:06:22,570
intelligent, but they haven't,

207
00:06:22,570 --> 00:06:24,180
like, what are you going to do?

208
00:06:24,260 --> 00:06:26,700
Like, learn to use tools and

209
00:06:26,700 --> 00:06:29,280
make iron under the water?

210
00:06:29,380 --> 00:06:30,360
That's not going to happen.

211
00:06:30,940 --> 00:06:33,920
Like, so, I don't know.

212
00:06:34,060 --> 00:06:35,670
I tend to think that, one, we

213
00:06:35,670 --> 00:06:37,650
underestimate the intelligence

214
00:06:37,650 --> 00:06:39,260
of certain creatures on the

215
00:06:39,260 --> 00:06:39,960
planet.

216
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,780
And don't get me wrong, like,

217
00:06:42,780 --> 00:06:44,500
there are some people that like

218
00:06:44,500 --> 00:06:46,420
to deify animals and make them

219
00:06:46,420 --> 00:06:48,020
out to be, like, all the

220
00:06:48,020 --> 00:06:50,350
animals are, like, are of equal

221
00:06:50,350 --> 00:06:52,000
intelligence and emotional

222
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:53,620
intelligence to us.

223
00:06:53,840 --> 00:06:55,160
I don't know about that.

224
00:06:55,260 --> 00:06:56,230
I mean, don't get me wrong,

225
00:06:56,230 --> 00:06:57,360
cats and dogs definitely have

226
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:58,270
some level of emotional

227
00:06:58,270 --> 00:06:59,040
intelligence.

228
00:06:59,060 --> 00:07:00,480
I don't think a snail does,

229
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:01,100
though.

230
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:02,500
Yeah, I don't think a snail has

231
00:07:02,500 --> 00:07:03,430
that much emotional

232
00:07:03,430 --> 00:07:04,300
intelligence.

233
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:05,970
I don't think the average fish

234
00:07:05,970 --> 00:07:07,320
has that much emotional

235
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:08,380
intelligence.

236
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:09,900
I really don't.

237
00:07:09,900 --> 00:07:10,800
I mean, fish are more

238
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,050
intelligent than we give them

239
00:07:12,050 --> 00:07:13,440
credit for as well, though.

240
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,090
Yeah, they are, but tiny, teeny,

241
00:07:16,090 --> 00:07:17,780
teeny, tiny brain.

242
00:07:18,260 --> 00:07:20,530
So, I think that because we

243
00:07:20,530 --> 00:07:23,280
tend to want to view alien life

244
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,530
through the lens of, well, it's

245
00:07:26,530 --> 00:07:28,640
got to look like us.

246
00:07:29,140 --> 00:07:30,020
It has to.

247
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,160
Versus like, and there have

248
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:33,860
been some shows that go outside

249
00:07:33,860 --> 00:07:34,780
of this lane.

250
00:07:34,780 --> 00:07:36,960
Like, you look at Star Trek.

251
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,350
You look at, what was it, Farscape,

252
00:07:41,350 --> 00:07:45,150
where sometimes the intelligent

253
00:07:45,150 --> 00:07:49,260
life is like an electric cloud.

254
00:07:49,900 --> 00:07:51,940
That's the form that's the form

255
00:07:51,940 --> 00:07:53,900
that's the form that's the form

256
00:07:53,900 --> 00:07:55,440
that the life takes.

257
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,970
That's the size of a spaceship

258
00:07:56,970 --> 00:07:58,120
that you could beam into.

259
00:07:58,520 --> 00:07:59,100
You know?

260
00:07:59,300 --> 00:08:00,940
So, there are definitely

261
00:08:00,940 --> 00:08:02,520
situations like that.

262
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,130
There's another alien variation

263
00:08:05,130 --> 00:08:07,600
that is also used sometimes.

264
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:07,980
Okay.

265
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,290
It's just like the really tiny

266
00:08:10,290 --> 00:08:11,950
floating thing that built a

267
00:08:11,950 --> 00:08:14,140
mechanical suit around itself.

268
00:08:14,820 --> 00:08:15,200
Yeah.

269
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,440
Those show up sometime.

270
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:17,880
Yeah.

271
00:08:18,580 --> 00:08:20,450
So, I don't think, I'm inclined

272
00:08:20,450 --> 00:08:22,380
to agree with you, I don't

273
00:08:22,380 --> 00:08:24,170
think alien life, even

274
00:08:24,170 --> 00:08:26,340
intelligent alien life that

275
00:08:26,340 --> 00:08:29,050
could communicate with us,

276
00:08:29,050 --> 00:08:31,540
necessarily looks like we will

277
00:08:31,540 --> 00:08:33,540
expect it to look.

278
00:08:34,140 --> 00:08:36,150
There could already be aliens

279
00:08:36,150 --> 00:08:38,300
on this planet, and we wouldn't

280
00:08:38,300 --> 00:08:40,580
even know axolotls are aliens.

281
00:08:40,860 --> 00:08:41,400
It's true.

282
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:43,950
I mean, there's no reason not

283
00:08:43,950 --> 00:08:46,510
to believe it, except for the

284
00:08:46,510 --> 00:08:48,160
fossil record.

285
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,850
But, you know, but that's

286
00:08:50,850 --> 00:08:53,140
another good point.

287
00:08:53,300 --> 00:08:55,190
Like, there could be some off-world

288
00:08:55,190 --> 00:08:56,590
life that's living here on the

289
00:08:56,590 --> 00:08:58,230
planet and just kind of keeping

290
00:08:58,230 --> 00:08:59,020
tabs on us.

291
00:08:59,580 --> 00:09:00,960
And for good reason.

292
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:02,920
I mean, look at us.

293
00:09:03,680 --> 00:09:05,980
We fight over anything.

294
00:09:06,540 --> 00:09:07,400
And everything.

295
00:09:07,580 --> 00:09:09,600
And we lie about so much.

296
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,420
Like, the governments lie.

297
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,020
The religions lie.

298
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,960
Everything is like...

299
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,890
And, you know, we're still,

300
00:09:17,890 --> 00:09:20,190
despite the fact that, you know,

301
00:09:20,190 --> 00:09:22,220
we've signed anti-proliferation

302
00:09:22,220 --> 00:09:24,550
treaties, and we've scaled back

303
00:09:24,550 --> 00:09:26,350
the production of nuclear

304
00:09:26,350 --> 00:09:28,270
weapons, and we highly, you

305
00:09:28,270 --> 00:09:30,260
know, regulate what countries

306
00:09:30,260 --> 00:09:31,930
are allowed to have nuclear

307
00:09:31,930 --> 00:09:32,740
weapons.

308
00:09:33,220 --> 00:09:35,570
And really, when push comes to

309
00:09:35,570 --> 00:09:38,090
shove, it only takes one crisis

310
00:09:38,090 --> 00:09:40,220
for that button to get pushed

311
00:09:40,220 --> 00:09:41,420
by someone.

312
00:09:41,420 --> 00:09:42,660
And then we're all dead.

313
00:09:42,660 --> 00:09:43,220
Yeah.

314
00:09:43,220 --> 00:09:45,300
Because then...

315
00:09:45,300 --> 00:09:46,750
I don't think the aliens would

316
00:09:46,750 --> 00:09:47,840
come to our planet.

317
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,110
The method of protecting

318
00:09:50,110 --> 00:09:53,030
ourselves in regards to nuclear

319
00:09:53,030 --> 00:09:55,300
stuff is called mutually

320
00:09:55,300 --> 00:09:57,660
assured destruction.

321
00:09:58,380 --> 00:09:58,540
Yeah.

322
00:09:58,540 --> 00:10:00,810
It's everyone who has nukes has

323
00:10:00,810 --> 00:10:02,380
enough nukes to where even if

324
00:10:02,380 --> 00:10:03,850
only one gets fired by one

325
00:10:03,850 --> 00:10:05,830
country, everyone's going to

326
00:10:05,830 --> 00:10:07,630
basically be able to destroy

327
00:10:07,630 --> 00:10:08,720
each other.

328
00:10:09,260 --> 00:10:09,680
Yeah.

329
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,540
It's a wonderful plan.

330
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,280
Hey, somebody fired a nuke.

331
00:10:13,340 --> 00:10:14,580
Let's just take out the whole

332
00:10:14,580 --> 00:10:15,100
planet.

333
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:16,320
Yep.

334
00:10:16,740 --> 00:10:18,300
Sounds like a great idea.

335
00:10:18,780 --> 00:10:20,980
So, um, I can understand aliens

336
00:10:20,980 --> 00:10:22,380
being concerned.

337
00:10:23,140 --> 00:10:24,900
Because nuclear power might be,

338
00:10:24,900 --> 00:10:26,800
like, one step lower.

339
00:10:27,100 --> 00:10:28,990
Like, nuclear explosions might

340
00:10:28,990 --> 00:10:31,160
be one step lower than whatever,

341
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,380
like, the next evolution is.

342
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:34,140
The next jump.

343
00:10:34,180 --> 00:10:35,320
We don't know what it is.

344
00:10:35,580 --> 00:10:38,380
But, like, it's one thing, like,

345
00:10:38,380 --> 00:10:40,440
alright, a nuke and the

346
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,280
consequences of nukes will

347
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,080
destroy life here.

348
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,980
But that's one step before we'd

349
00:10:46,980 --> 00:10:48,720
be able to...

350
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,920
Imagine we find a middle matter

351
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,280
that's not matter or anti-matter

352
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,220
and it can contain both.

353
00:10:56,020 --> 00:10:56,420
Yeah.

354
00:10:56,660 --> 00:10:58,410
Then we'd have some real

355
00:10:58,410 --> 00:10:59,520
problems.

356
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,770
Yeah, because, you see, if I'm

357
00:11:01,770 --> 00:11:03,790
an alien and I have an advanced

358
00:11:03,790 --> 00:11:05,730
culture off of this planet,

359
00:11:05,730 --> 00:11:07,990
like, light years away, and I'm

360
00:11:07,990 --> 00:11:10,190
just watching, I don't really

361
00:11:10,190 --> 00:11:11,810
care if these people blow

362
00:11:11,810 --> 00:11:12,960
themselves up.

363
00:11:13,020 --> 00:11:14,300
Because that doesn't affect me.

364
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:15,330
And they're clearly not

365
00:11:15,330 --> 00:11:16,570
intelligent enough to get far

366
00:11:16,570 --> 00:11:18,060
enough into space to bother me.

367
00:11:18,420 --> 00:11:20,640
But if we go whatever the next

368
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,270
level of energy or the next

369
00:11:22,270 --> 00:11:24,370
level of technology is beyond

370
00:11:24,370 --> 00:11:26,520
that, oh, well, now it could

371
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,490
potentially nuke the whole

372
00:11:28,490 --> 00:11:30,460
solar system or whatever the

373
00:11:30,460 --> 00:11:31,900
equivalent is.

374
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:32,760
It wouldn't be a nuke.

375
00:11:32,860 --> 00:11:34,480
But we'll call it a space nuke,

376
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:35,040
okay?

377
00:11:35,740 --> 00:11:37,600
So, we developed space nukes.

378
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:39,780
Space nukes.

379
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,740
Well, they wouldn't be called

380
00:11:41,740 --> 00:11:43,420
space nukes, but I'm calling

381
00:11:43,420 --> 00:11:45,160
them space nukes in that they're

382
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:46,810
the equivalent destructive

383
00:11:46,810 --> 00:11:48,390
power that we can imagine of a

384
00:11:48,390 --> 00:11:49,680
nuclear weapon.

385
00:11:50,380 --> 00:11:51,600
But, like, an order of

386
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,210
magnitude that's, like,

387
00:11:53,210 --> 00:11:55,060
millions of times larger.

388
00:11:55,060 --> 00:11:56,650
I feel like the next type of

389
00:11:56,650 --> 00:11:58,390
energy we should be trying to

390
00:11:58,390 --> 00:12:00,660
get our hands on is anti-matter.

391
00:12:01,260 --> 00:12:02,880
It's near impossible to do, but

392
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,760
if you do it, you get a lot of

393
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:05,640
energy.

394
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,640
You also...

395
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:10,720
How do you contain...

396
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,680
I said it'd be really funny if

397
00:12:12,680 --> 00:12:14,640
there was a middle matter that

398
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,380
can contain matter and anti-matter.

399
00:12:17,940 --> 00:12:18,360
Yeah.

400
00:12:18,620 --> 00:12:20,120
And if we found that, if we

401
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,120
made it or found it, then we'd

402
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,120
be unstoppable, except that

403
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:25,960
there's going to be another

404
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,600
book tier of physics.

405
00:12:27,940 --> 00:12:29,160
But back to my point.

406
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:30,990
The point is that I think if

407
00:12:30,990 --> 00:12:32,700
there is any alien life on the

408
00:12:32,700 --> 00:12:34,850
planet, first of all, very good

409
00:12:34,850 --> 00:12:35,820
at hiding.

410
00:12:35,820 --> 00:12:38,480
Second of all, whether or not

411
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,490
it's involved with the

412
00:12:40,490 --> 00:12:43,480
government and the hypothetical

413
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,240
theory of the lizard people,

414
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:47,650
which I'm not going to get into

415
00:12:47,650 --> 00:12:49,110
because that's way too large of

416
00:12:49,110 --> 00:12:50,440
a conspiracy theory to deal

417
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:51,280
with in this.

418
00:12:51,860 --> 00:12:53,290
But I think they'd just be

419
00:12:53,290 --> 00:12:56,020
chilling and watching what we're

420
00:12:56,020 --> 00:12:56,820
doing.

421
00:12:57,380 --> 00:12:59,210
Maybe they would find a human-like

422
00:12:59,210 --> 00:13:00,540
disguise to come out.

423
00:13:01,100 --> 00:13:02,030
Or, you know, they're just

424
00:13:02,030 --> 00:13:03,620
hiding in plain sight and look

425
00:13:03,620 --> 00:13:04,660
like an insect.

426
00:13:05,260 --> 00:13:06,280
I mean, that could be too.

427
00:13:06,780 --> 00:13:07,440
I mean, or it could all be

428
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:07,980
drones.

429
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:09,530
It could all be mechanical

430
00:13:09,530 --> 00:13:11,120
things that are coming to

431
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,950
explore the planet on behalf of,

432
00:13:12,950 --> 00:13:14,820
like, other species far away

433
00:13:14,820 --> 00:13:16,530
because they don't want to risk

434
00:13:16,530 --> 00:13:18,220
being hurt themselves.

435
00:13:18,460 --> 00:13:20,490
And especially given, you know,

436
00:13:20,490 --> 00:13:22,130
the attitude of us towards

437
00:13:22,130 --> 00:13:23,640
things that we don't know or

438
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,860
understand generally being, we'll

439
00:13:25,860 --> 00:13:26,740
blow that up.

440
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:28,900
Or enslave it.

441
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:29,840
Or enslave it.

442
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,600
Or torture it to make it give

443
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,840
us its technological secrets.

444
00:13:34,500 --> 00:13:36,320
I don't think that they would

445
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,100
want to send themselves here.

446
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:40,550
Maybe they would say, send

447
00:13:40,550 --> 00:13:41,160
drones.

448
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:42,400
So...

449
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:43,860
And then we'll blow that one up.

450
00:13:43,860 --> 00:13:44,890
Yeah, then we'll blow the

451
00:13:44,890 --> 00:13:46,030
drones up and the aliens will

452
00:13:46,030 --> 00:13:47,330
be like, oh, well, that's some

453
00:13:47,330 --> 00:13:48,660
more drones that were lost.

454
00:13:49,260 --> 00:13:51,000
So, yeah, I don't know what to

455
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,040
make of it.

456
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,650
Like, as a kid, I used to be

457
00:13:53,650 --> 00:13:55,600
really into the X-Files, which

458
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:56,200
I love.

459
00:13:56,300 --> 00:13:57,360
I still love the show.

460
00:13:58,540 --> 00:14:00,020
But I'm not, like, that level

461
00:14:00,020 --> 00:14:02,580
of believer of, like, alien

462
00:14:02,580 --> 00:14:03,740
contact.

463
00:14:04,820 --> 00:14:05,540
I'm...

464
00:14:05,540 --> 00:14:07,620
I still like the phrase, I want

465
00:14:07,620 --> 00:14:08,600
to believe.

466
00:14:08,940 --> 00:14:11,440
And what I mean by that is that

467
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,240
I'm skeptical at this point.

468
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,540
Maybe not entirely skeptical.

469
00:14:16,740 --> 00:14:18,540
Like, maybe not, like, discount

470
00:14:18,540 --> 00:14:20,140
everything as always having

471
00:14:20,140 --> 00:14:21,820
some kind of explanation.

472
00:14:22,740 --> 00:14:25,950
But being at least willing to

473
00:14:25,950 --> 00:14:29,310
say, not every bright thing I

474
00:14:29,310 --> 00:14:32,760
see in the sky is a UAP or UFO.

475
00:14:33,260 --> 00:14:35,060
And not every report that I see

476
00:14:35,060 --> 00:14:37,180
or hear is actually real.

477
00:14:37,300 --> 00:14:38,790
Especially with digital

478
00:14:38,790 --> 00:14:40,850
manipulation being... and

479
00:14:40,850 --> 00:14:42,150
visual effects being what they

480
00:14:42,150 --> 00:14:42,480
are.

481
00:14:42,700 --> 00:14:43,040
Damn.

482
00:14:43,900 --> 00:14:45,450
And that's part of the reason

483
00:14:45,450 --> 00:14:47,060
why, when we were looking up

484
00:14:47,060 --> 00:14:48,570
that morning, and I see this

485
00:14:48,570 --> 00:14:50,110
bright thing in the sky, I'm

486
00:14:50,110 --> 00:14:51,370
like, by our current

487
00:14:51,370 --> 00:14:52,770
understanding of what this

488
00:14:52,770 --> 00:14:54,480
thing is, it's an unidentified

489
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:55,600
aerial phenomena.

490
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:56,960
So it is a UAP.

491
00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:58,770
But I'm pretty sure that's a

492
00:14:58,770 --> 00:15:01,120
rocket or a meteor or something.

493
00:15:01,820 --> 00:15:02,870
And my instinct on rocket was

494
00:15:02,870 --> 00:15:04,880
based upon seeing pictures of,

495
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,860
like, from NASA, how the plumes

496
00:15:06,860 --> 00:15:08,060
come off of it.

497
00:15:08,460 --> 00:15:09,700
And it was also kind of going

498
00:15:09,700 --> 00:15:11,040
in a straight line.

499
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:11,880
Yeah.

500
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,880
You know, so...

501
00:15:14,780 --> 00:15:15,500
But I don't know.

502
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,250
I'm of the belief that there's

503
00:15:18,250 --> 00:15:20,550
something else out there

504
00:15:20,550 --> 00:15:21,900
somewhere.

505
00:15:22,580 --> 00:15:23,820
And maybe it came here.

506
00:15:24,180 --> 00:15:25,240
Maybe it is here.

507
00:15:25,660 --> 00:15:26,460
Maybe it's not.

508
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:27,470
Maybe there's all sorts of

509
00:15:27,470 --> 00:15:28,800
things that have visited here.

510
00:15:30,340 --> 00:15:32,140
I do not discount any of that.

511
00:15:32,140 --> 00:15:34,640
I just believe that 90% of what

512
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,580
you hear, especially when the

513
00:15:36,580 --> 00:15:38,970
government gets involved, is

514
00:15:38,970 --> 00:15:40,960
complete and utter bullshit.

515
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,100
How about you?

516
00:15:44,100 --> 00:15:44,780
Where do you stand?

517
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:45,280
About what?

518
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,200
About where you stand on the

519
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,110
belief of intelligent life

520
00:15:49,110 --> 00:15:51,180
contacting us, being within

521
00:15:51,180 --> 00:15:52,760
contacting range.

522
00:15:53,100 --> 00:15:54,800
Well, I think we all know that

523
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,840
the only time they're going to

524
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:58,880
contact us is when they have to

525
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,370
clear the space for a new hyperspace

526
00:16:01,370 --> 00:16:02,200
bypass.

527
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:06,360
Thanks.

528
00:16:06,980 --> 00:16:07,780
Hitchhiker's Guide to the

529
00:16:07,780 --> 00:16:08,420
Galaxy.

530
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:09,080
Great book.

531
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:10,500
Okay.

532
00:16:10,740 --> 00:16:11,040
Anyway.

533
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:12,180
I don't know.

534
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:14,200
It would be nice if, you know,

535
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,370
there was such a thing as, like,

536
00:16:16,370 --> 00:16:17,970
the Star Trek idea of the

537
00:16:17,970 --> 00:16:20,320
United Federation of Planets.

538
00:16:20,620 --> 00:16:21,540
We're like...

539
00:16:21,540 --> 00:16:23,120
And then we get left out of it.

540
00:16:23,260 --> 00:16:24,910
Well, we're getting left out of

541
00:16:24,910 --> 00:16:26,310
it because we're either not

542
00:16:26,310 --> 00:16:28,100
technologically mature enough

543
00:16:28,100 --> 00:16:29,510
or we're not mature enough as a

544
00:16:29,510 --> 00:16:30,860
society in general.

545
00:16:31,460 --> 00:16:32,780
Oh, I would go with the latter

546
00:16:32,780 --> 00:16:33,460
first.

547
00:16:33,540 --> 00:16:34,100
Oh, definitely.

548
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,200
I mean, the fact that we have

549
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:38,790
people who make it their

550
00:16:38,790 --> 00:16:41,030
purpose in life just to go

551
00:16:41,030 --> 00:16:44,020
online and upset other people,

552
00:16:44,020 --> 00:16:46,580
that's a pretty, like, toxic

553
00:16:46,580 --> 00:16:48,180
thing if you look at it

554
00:16:48,180 --> 00:16:49,580
objectively.

555
00:16:49,580 --> 00:16:51,100
Well, you've got to remember

556
00:16:51,100 --> 00:16:52,760
that every single world leader's

557
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,150
job is to go out there and lie

558
00:16:54,150 --> 00:16:55,540
to millions of people.

559
00:16:56,340 --> 00:16:57,360
Yeah, for the most part.

560
00:16:58,440 --> 00:16:59,280
I mean, like, what does that

561
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:00,960
say about our society?

562
00:17:01,900 --> 00:17:03,980
Uh, it says we suck.

563
00:17:03,980 --> 00:17:05,290
We don't even get along with

564
00:17:05,290 --> 00:17:06,020
each other.

565
00:17:06,140 --> 00:17:07,860
Like, we don't even, like,

566
00:17:07,860 --> 00:17:09,880
operate as, like, one peoples.

567
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:11,240
And that's not to say that I

568
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:12,610
want to get rid of cultural

569
00:17:12,610 --> 00:17:13,460
distinctions.

570
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,920
It's to say, though, that, like,

571
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,620
we can't function in peace as

572
00:17:19,620 --> 00:17:21,700
an overall world.

573
00:17:22,360 --> 00:17:22,800
Yeah.

574
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,800
Like, I'm not talking, like,

575
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,750
minor conflicts between, like,

576
00:17:27,750 --> 00:17:29,730
two tribal, like, groups in the

577
00:17:29,730 --> 00:17:31,580
middle of nowhere in the jungle

578
00:17:31,580 --> 00:17:32,840
or in the desert.

579
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,690
I'm saying, like, multi-trillion

580
00:17:35,690 --> 00:17:37,960
dollar wars using lots of

581
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:39,960
expensive equipment that the

582
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,280
United States happens to make

583
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:43,240
most of.

584
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:45,850
I'm just saying war is our

585
00:17:45,850 --> 00:17:47,240
greatest export.

586
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,540
And until we get to the point

587
00:17:49,540 --> 00:17:51,980
where war is not an export and

588
00:17:51,980 --> 00:17:54,410
war is not the standard way of

589
00:17:54,410 --> 00:17:57,180
getting resources, even if it's

590
00:17:57,180 --> 00:18:00,540
an underhanded brower, like, we're

591
00:18:00,540 --> 00:18:02,760
not going to achieve what we

592
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,850
need to emotionally,

593
00:18:04,850 --> 00:18:07,680
intellectually, or societally.

594
00:18:08,060 --> 00:18:10,560
And certainly not technologically,

595
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,270
to where any alien species

596
00:18:12,270 --> 00:18:14,290
would want anything the hell to

597
00:18:14,290 --> 00:18:15,280
do with us.

598
00:18:15,300 --> 00:18:16,220
If they exist.

599
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:17,540
If they exist.

600
00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:20,360
Which, again, laws of

601
00:18:20,360 --> 00:18:22,590
probability are with us on

602
00:18:22,590 --> 00:18:25,850
existence of other intelligent

603
00:18:25,850 --> 00:18:26,760
life.

604
00:18:27,060 --> 00:18:29,020
Or we're all in a snow globe.

605
00:18:29,740 --> 00:18:31,280
An alien snow globe.

606
00:18:32,980 --> 00:18:34,100
So we're breathing water with

607
00:18:34,100 --> 00:18:36,860
snowflakes in it right now?

608
00:18:36,860 --> 00:18:37,420
Yes.

609
00:18:37,420 --> 00:18:39,280
Oxygen is water.

610
00:18:41,620 --> 00:18:43,220
Are you saying oxygen is a myth,

611
00:18:43,220 --> 00:18:44,140
sir?

612
00:18:47,820 --> 00:18:49,730
No, air is liquid and liquid is

613
00:18:49,730 --> 00:18:51,000
air.

614
00:18:51,180 --> 00:18:53,010
I mean, fluid dynamics do play

615
00:18:53,010 --> 00:18:54,440
a key part in, like,

616
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,270
atmospheric conditions and

617
00:18:56,270 --> 00:18:57,820
predicting stuff.

618
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,060
Like, no, this is true.

619
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:01,490
Like, the operation of water is

620
00:19:01,490 --> 00:19:02,830
very similar to the operation

621
00:19:02,830 --> 00:19:03,340
of air.

622
00:19:03,340 --> 00:19:03,760
Yeah, I know.

623
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:05,850
That's why we're all in a giant

624
00:19:05,850 --> 00:19:06,940
snow globe.

625
00:19:06,940 --> 00:19:11,260
So what happens if we get shook?

626
00:19:12,620 --> 00:19:15,280
And who's doing the shaking?

627
00:19:17,660 --> 00:19:20,660
It might be like an electric shaker.

628
00:19:20,660 --> 00:19:22,320
Like, you push a button.

629
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:24,930
It's an alien snow globe, you

630
00:19:24,930 --> 00:19:25,700
know?

631
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:27,380
It might be different from what

632
00:19:27,380 --> 00:19:28,980
we think of as a snow globe.

633
00:19:29,260 --> 00:19:30,060
But you want to know what I

634
00:19:30,060 --> 00:19:31,100
think would happen?

635
00:19:31,980 --> 00:19:32,380
What?

636
00:19:32,620 --> 00:19:33,720
It would make all the

637
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,560
politicians angry and make them

638
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:36,680
start a world war.

639
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,050
That's what pushing the button

640
00:19:39,050 --> 00:19:41,040
for the snow globe does.

641
00:19:43,340 --> 00:19:45,880
really, what you're saying is a

642
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,670
nuclear war on Earth would be

643
00:19:47,670 --> 00:19:49,710
like a tiny little fireworks

644
00:19:49,710 --> 00:19:51,490
display for the aliens in

645
00:19:51,490 --> 00:19:53,640
charge of the snow globe.

646
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:54,020
Yeah.

647
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,080
So, like, and maybe the time

648
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:58,740
doesn't work the same.

649
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,350
So, like, for us, like, it's,

650
00:20:00,350 --> 00:20:02,110
you know, like, it's been, like,

651
00:20:02,110 --> 00:20:03,560
hundreds of millions of years

652
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,320
that the Earth has existed.

653
00:20:05,420 --> 00:20:07,240
For them, it's been, like, you

654
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:08,300
know, five minutes.

655
00:20:09,020 --> 00:20:10,780
And then they're going to shake

656
00:20:10,780 --> 00:20:12,260
it, and then the nukes go off,

657
00:20:12,260 --> 00:20:14,100
and then they just wait again.

658
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:14,780
Yeah.

659
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,940
For the Earth to populate

660
00:20:16,940 --> 00:20:17,900
itself.

661
00:20:18,120 --> 00:20:18,360
Yeah.

662
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:20,470
And then every single alternate

663
00:20:20,470 --> 00:20:22,420
universe is just another snow

664
00:20:22,420 --> 00:20:23,140
globe.

665
00:20:23,900 --> 00:20:24,760
From the factory.

666
00:20:26,180 --> 00:20:27,920
Oh, no, not the factory.

667
00:20:30,060 --> 00:20:30,940
Oh, no.

668
00:20:31,580 --> 00:20:33,200
From the alien snow globe

669
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:34,300
factory.

670
00:20:34,540 --> 00:20:36,080
No, just the factory.

671
00:20:37,100 --> 00:20:39,600
Look up SCP, the factory.

672
00:20:40,820 --> 00:20:42,520
It's an interesting, uh,

673
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:46,060
interesting, uh, company.

674
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:46,980
No.

675
00:20:47,340 --> 00:20:49,310
That works on an interdimensional

676
00:20:49,310 --> 00:20:49,980
level.

677
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,000
Thank you to the SCP Foundation

678
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,070
for your documentation of this

679
00:20:54,070 --> 00:20:55,460
anomalous thing.

680
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:57,650
Um, if you don't know what the

681
00:20:57,650 --> 00:20:59,740
SCP Foundation is, please, by

682
00:20:59,740 --> 00:21:01,470
all means, look up, by all

683
00:21:01,470 --> 00:21:03,040
means, look up the SCP

684
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:04,180
Foundation.

685
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:05,600
And just be warned.

686
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,920
Not all SCPs are suitable for

687
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,530
all audiences, and some are, in

688
00:21:11,530 --> 00:21:14,280
fact, very, very disturbing.

689
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:15,900
You have been warned.

690
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:16,640
Yay.

691
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:16,840
Yay.

692
00:21:16,940 --> 00:21:17,160
Yay.

693
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,380
So, your running theory of the

694
00:21:20,380 --> 00:21:22,060
world right now is that we are

695
00:21:22,060 --> 00:21:23,890
inside the alien equivalent of

696
00:21:23,890 --> 00:21:24,900
a snow globe.

697
00:21:24,900 --> 00:21:26,070
No, I was just saying that'd be

698
00:21:26,070 --> 00:21:26,380
funny.

699
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:27,680
Oh.

700
00:21:29,620 --> 00:21:30,360
Yeah, it would.

701
00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:30,360
Yeah, it would.

702
00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:33,160
Yeah, it would be amusing.

703
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,140
I also wonder, like, what first

704
00:21:35,140 --> 00:21:36,700
contact would be like.

705
00:21:37,420 --> 00:21:39,240
Like, how, what's the most

706
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,460
intelligent way for a species

707
00:21:41,460 --> 00:21:43,790
that might look like a blob to

708
00:21:43,790 --> 00:21:46,230
us and not speak or understand

709
00:21:46,230 --> 00:21:48,280
our language at all?

710
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,560
How do you learn to communicate?

711
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:52,020
How do you learn to communicate?

712
00:21:53,820 --> 00:21:54,780
And, like, to say, first of all,

713
00:21:54,780 --> 00:21:56,160
I'm peaceful.

714
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:57,970
Second of all, I'm not just a

715
00:21:57,970 --> 00:21:58,940
slime mold.

716
00:21:59,040 --> 00:21:59,680
I'm intelligent.

717
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,000
And third, to then begin to

718
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:03,610
have, like, actual

719
00:22:03,610 --> 00:22:06,170
conversations without, you know,

720
00:22:06,170 --> 00:22:08,220
the world destroying itself

721
00:22:08,220 --> 00:22:09,680
because aliens.

722
00:22:10,420 --> 00:22:11,260
You could draw.

723
00:22:14,380 --> 00:22:16,200
I'm saying as a larger rule,

724
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,440
like, okay, you, you, first of

725
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,480
all, a slime creature might not

726
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,450
be able to draw, might not have

727
00:22:22,450 --> 00:22:23,220
hands.

728
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:25,960
You're, you're being very human

729
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,100
normative.

730
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:28,600
If it's a slime, then it could,

731
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,250
like, it could, like, have, it

732
00:22:30,250 --> 00:22:31,860
could stick something in itself,

733
00:22:31,860 --> 00:22:32,480
right?

734
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:34,280
You don't know that sticking

735
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,240
something in it might, like,

736
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,110
break the cytoplastic wall or

737
00:22:38,110 --> 00:22:40,200
whatever the equivalent is.

738
00:22:40,380 --> 00:22:41,780
And then it just spews out and

739
00:22:41,780 --> 00:22:42,600
you kill it.

740
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,280
How much technology does the

741
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:45,160
slime have?

742
00:22:45,540 --> 00:22:46,730
Look, like, clearly enough

743
00:22:46,730 --> 00:22:48,380
technology to get to Earth.

744
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,050
Well, then surely it must have

745
00:22:50,050 --> 00:22:51,510
some kind of lights that it

746
00:22:51,510 --> 00:22:53,060
could use to communicate.

747
00:22:54,340 --> 00:22:54,680
What if it operates on a

748
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,100
certain type of electromagnetic

749
00:22:57,100 --> 00:22:58,990
spectrum that we can't yet

750
00:22:58,990 --> 00:23:00,040
perceive?

751
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:02,660
Well, that's our own fault.

752
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:04,950
You see, this is, like, this is

753
00:23:04,950 --> 00:23:07,220
where first contact situations

754
00:23:07,220 --> 00:23:09,100
cause such a big issue.

755
00:23:09,100 --> 00:23:11,330
One, obviously it'll scare the

756
00:23:11,330 --> 00:23:12,980
crap out of the public to

757
00:23:12,980 --> 00:23:15,120
realize that, oh, aliens are

758
00:23:15,120 --> 00:23:15,800
real.

759
00:23:15,980 --> 00:23:17,070
Which is probably why the

760
00:23:17,070 --> 00:23:18,680
government hasn't told us that

761
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:19,680
aliens are real.

762
00:23:21,740 --> 00:23:23,580
I guarantee you they know.

763
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:24,580
No, I'm kidding.

764
00:23:25,120 --> 00:23:25,520
Slightly.

765
00:23:26,300 --> 00:23:27,360
I'm mostly kidding.

766
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,310
I don't think there's a grand

767
00:23:29,310 --> 00:23:31,430
conspiracy between aliens and

768
00:23:31,430 --> 00:23:33,370
the governments and all this

769
00:23:33,370 --> 00:23:34,100
stuff.

770
00:23:34,660 --> 00:23:35,780
Maybe there is.

771
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:37,790
I mean, I wouldn't find it hard

772
00:23:37,790 --> 00:23:38,800
to believe.

773
00:23:39,500 --> 00:23:41,160
Because, like, what would you

774
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:41,520
do?

775
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:42,730
You would go to the power

776
00:23:42,730 --> 00:23:44,340
structure in order to, like,

777
00:23:44,340 --> 00:23:45,820
but then the power structure

778
00:23:45,820 --> 00:23:47,500
would want to retain power.

779
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,510
And obviously interplanetary

780
00:23:49,510 --> 00:23:51,760
communication and collaboration

781
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,730
wouldn't allow them to retain

782
00:23:53,730 --> 00:23:54,780
their power.

783
00:23:54,980 --> 00:23:56,070
Because now we've got to deal

784
00:23:56,070 --> 00:23:57,360
with other politicians from

785
00:23:57,360 --> 00:23:58,240
other planets.

786
00:23:58,240 --> 00:23:59,270
And who knows what the hell

787
00:23:59,270 --> 00:23:59,960
they're like?

788
00:24:00,380 --> 00:24:01,100
You know?

789
00:24:03,260 --> 00:24:04,820
But no, I always just wonder,

790
00:24:04,820 --> 00:24:08,480
like, what happens with first

791
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:09,980
contact?

792
00:24:10,260 --> 00:24:11,990
Like, is first contact, like,

793
00:24:11,990 --> 00:24:14,010
the alien abduction stories of,

794
00:24:14,010 --> 00:24:15,970
like, people getting abducted

795
00:24:15,970 --> 00:24:17,920
and weird stuff happening?

796
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:19,240
How do you know that first

797
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,160
contact hasn't already happened?

798
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:22,560
I'm not saying it hasn't.

799
00:24:22,620 --> 00:24:23,240
I don't know.

800
00:24:24,620 --> 00:24:27,110
You see, like, but there's so

801
00:24:27,110 --> 00:24:29,840
much secrecy around the topic.

802
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,000
Because, one, we don't want our

803
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,980
enemies to know our methods and

804
00:24:33,980 --> 00:24:35,590
capabilities in terms of

805
00:24:35,590 --> 00:24:36,520
military.

806
00:24:36,980 --> 00:24:37,890
But we also don't want them to

807
00:24:37,890 --> 00:24:39,140
know our weaknesses.

808
00:24:39,580 --> 00:24:41,190
So it's like, oh, hey, we have

809
00:24:41,190 --> 00:24:43,580
all these unidentified things.

810
00:24:43,580 --> 00:24:45,050
Well, if we're admitting to the

811
00:24:45,050 --> 00:24:46,460
world these are things we can't

812
00:24:46,460 --> 00:24:48,060
identify with our technology.

813
00:24:48,660 --> 00:24:49,670
And it turns out a bunch of

814
00:24:49,670 --> 00:24:51,550
that stuff is actually stuff

815
00:24:51,550 --> 00:24:53,400
sent out by our enemies.

816
00:24:53,700 --> 00:24:54,940
Then we're telling our enemies

817
00:24:54,940 --> 00:24:55,970
we don't know how to detect

818
00:24:55,970 --> 00:24:56,660
their shit.

819
00:24:57,780 --> 00:24:58,980
And that's not good.

820
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:00,990
But it also means that if there

821
00:25:00,990 --> 00:25:02,990
were any actual first contact

822
00:25:02,990 --> 00:25:04,770
activities that happened

823
00:25:04,770 --> 00:25:07,040
between alien civilizations and

824
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,280
governments.

825
00:25:09,740 --> 00:25:11,340
You would be in a situation

826
00:25:11,340 --> 00:25:15,090
that those governments would be

827
00:25:15,090 --> 00:25:19,200
very, very protective of that.

828
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:20,700
And we would never find out.

829
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:22,970
Like, there are so many people

830
00:25:22,970 --> 00:25:24,280
online that are like, oh,

831
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:25,620
disclosure's coming.

832
00:25:26,260 --> 00:25:27,430
They're going to give us the

833
00:25:27,430 --> 00:25:29,440
real information, finally.

834
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,610
Like, there is nothing that

835
00:25:31,610 --> 00:25:33,760
leads me to believe that.

836
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:35,760
Like, even if something like

837
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,300
that was happening.

838
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,370
They can't even get their own

839
00:25:40,370 --> 00:25:43,200
story straight about, like, the

840
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,640
nature of UAPs and the history

841
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,920
of us covering them up.

842
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:49,670
Like, there are clear facts in

843
00:25:49,670 --> 00:25:51,690
a historical record about, like,

844
00:25:51,690 --> 00:25:52,980
different things they

845
00:25:52,980 --> 00:25:54,760
intentionally covered up.

846
00:25:55,120 --> 00:25:57,490
Different stuff tied to unidentified

847
00:25:57,490 --> 00:25:58,080
stuff.

848
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,320
And they're like, no.

849
00:26:00,780 --> 00:26:02,300
Like, that was legitimate

850
00:26:02,300 --> 00:26:03,260
research.

851
00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:03,860
It happened.

852
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:05,470
And you go, but there's

853
00:26:05,470 --> 00:26:07,730
documentation that refutes what

854
00:26:07,730 --> 00:26:09,040
you're saying.

855
00:26:09,500 --> 00:26:10,940
Yeah, but this is the narrative

856
00:26:10,940 --> 00:26:12,220
we're going with.

857
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:13,320
Okay.

858
00:26:14,900 --> 00:26:15,420
Thanks.

859
00:26:16,100 --> 00:26:16,560
So, yeah.

860
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,500
Like, am I inclined to believe

861
00:26:18,500 --> 00:26:20,260
first contact has happened

862
00:26:20,260 --> 00:26:22,370
already and that, like, there's

863
00:26:22,370 --> 00:26:23,740
a big conspiracy?

864
00:26:24,020 --> 00:26:24,780
I don't know.

865
00:26:25,220 --> 00:26:27,400
I don't know if there's enough

866
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,620
proof in any of the records to

867
00:26:29,620 --> 00:26:32,150
give credence to that, at least

868
00:26:32,150 --> 00:26:33,980
at this point in time.

869
00:26:34,980 --> 00:26:36,340
And that's being as objective

870
00:26:36,340 --> 00:26:37,420
as I can be.

871
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:39,280
Believe me, I would love if

872
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,300
some of the crazy stories that

873
00:26:41,300 --> 00:26:43,470
some of the whistleblowers have

874
00:26:43,470 --> 00:26:45,470
said were true and we were able

875
00:26:45,470 --> 00:26:47,500
to, like, I would love if there

876
00:26:47,500 --> 00:26:48,950
was a UFO the size of multiple

877
00:26:48,950 --> 00:26:50,570
football fields just hiding

878
00:26:50,570 --> 00:26:51,950
under a building in the middle

879
00:26:51,950 --> 00:26:53,320
of Europe somewhere.

880
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:54,920
Or in South America.

881
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:56,960
I would love if that was true.

882
00:26:57,580 --> 00:27:00,820
But, eh, proof.

883
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:02,800
And there isn't any.

884
00:27:04,120 --> 00:27:05,400
So, I think the big question,

885
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,400
though, is, again, like, first

886
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,000
contact, like, so you're Joe

887
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:11,880
Human.

888
00:27:12,620 --> 00:27:13,160
Hi, Joe.

889
00:27:14,500 --> 00:27:15,440
Hi, Bob.

890
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:15,900
Yeah.

891
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:17,560
So, we're Joe and Bob.

892
00:27:18,120 --> 00:27:21,270
And to be as stupid as possible,

893
00:27:21,270 --> 00:27:25,220
we, the wonderful, hyper-intelligent

894
00:27:25,220 --> 00:27:28,300
Joe and Bob, decide we're going

895
00:27:28,300 --> 00:27:30,000
to go fishing.

896
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:31,480
Yeah.

897
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:32,430
And we're going to have some

898
00:27:32,430 --> 00:27:32,760
beer.

899
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:33,360
Yeah.

900
00:27:33,360 --> 00:27:34,850
Because, and this is something

901
00:27:34,850 --> 00:27:36,230
we talked about when we were on

902
00:27:36,230 --> 00:27:36,920
vacation.

903
00:27:37,500 --> 00:27:39,290
The most standard situation, or

904
00:27:39,290 --> 00:27:41,650
stereotypical, I won't say this

905
00:27:41,650 --> 00:27:43,850
is actually the most normative

906
00:27:43,850 --> 00:27:45,720
way that this happens.

907
00:27:46,260 --> 00:27:47,650
But the most stereotypical way

908
00:27:47,650 --> 00:27:49,520
that people run into aliens is

909
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,520
they're out fishing and getting

910
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:52,220
drunk.

911
00:27:53,580 --> 00:27:55,040
And then they see something.

912
00:27:55,140 --> 00:27:55,880
Or they're out fishing.

913
00:27:55,980 --> 00:27:56,820
Maybe they're not drunk.

914
00:27:57,020 --> 00:27:58,220
And they see something.

915
00:27:58,600 --> 00:27:59,710
Or something does something to

916
00:27:59,710 --> 00:28:00,140
them.

917
00:28:00,900 --> 00:28:02,760
So, you and I are Joe and Bob.

918
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,380
And this craft that maybe it

919
00:28:06,380 --> 00:28:08,960
looks like a box.

920
00:28:09,180 --> 00:28:10,460
Maybe it looks like a rectangle.

921
00:28:10,900 --> 00:28:12,820
Maybe it looks like a sphere.

922
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:14,240
Maybe it looks like something.

923
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:15,580
We don't really know.

924
00:28:16,340 --> 00:28:17,760
But some kind of thing lands in

925
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:18,900
front of us.

926
00:28:18,980 --> 00:28:20,180
It's clearly not something we

927
00:28:20,180 --> 00:28:20,960
can identify.

928
00:28:21,140 --> 00:28:21,980
It's not a helicopter.

929
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:23,320
It's not a drone.

930
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,210
It's none of that stuff that

931
00:28:25,210 --> 00:28:27,130
you would identify as being

932
00:28:27,130 --> 00:28:28,300
human-made.

933
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:29,640
Maybe it is.

934
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,090
Maybe it's some top-secret

935
00:28:31,090 --> 00:28:32,450
government thing messing with

936
00:28:32,450 --> 00:28:32,820
you.

937
00:28:32,900 --> 00:28:34,680
But to all intents and purposes,

938
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,210
this is something you do not

939
00:28:36,210 --> 00:28:37,080
recognize.

940
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,000
It drops to the ground in front

941
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:39,660
of you.

942
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:41,550
Some kind of hatch or door

943
00:28:41,550 --> 00:28:42,480
opens up.

944
00:28:44,060 --> 00:28:45,230
And time and space around it is

945
00:28:45,230 --> 00:28:47,970
not distorting in such a way to

946
00:28:47,970 --> 00:28:51,280
lead you to believe that the

947
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,390
atmosphere or environment

948
00:28:53,390 --> 00:28:55,190
inside the ship would be

949
00:28:55,190 --> 00:28:57,440
destructive to the world as we

950
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:58,300
know it.

951
00:28:58,300 --> 00:28:59,720
And time and space and physics

952
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:00,500
and all that.

953
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:04,360
And so you walk up to it and

954
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,800
you see some kind of creature

955
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,300
that is indescribable to normal

956
00:29:11,300 --> 00:29:12,800
thought.

957
00:29:13,740 --> 00:29:15,750
Maybe you can describe it, but

958
00:29:15,750 --> 00:29:17,450
it's not like your typical

959
00:29:17,450 --> 00:29:19,700
alien that you would think of.

960
00:29:19,940 --> 00:29:21,240
Maybe it doesn't have a mouth.

961
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:22,720
Maybe you don't see any eyes.

962
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:24,400
Maybe it doesn't have any

963
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,400
organs or appendages that you

964
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:27,400
recognize.

965
00:29:28,100 --> 00:29:29,510
And this thing starts doing

966
00:29:29,510 --> 00:29:30,280
something.

967
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,140
Like, maybe if it's jelly, it

968
00:29:33,140 --> 00:29:35,760
starts wiggling around.

969
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,120
Or maybe, like, it...

970
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,040
Like...

971
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,360
What do you do?

972
00:29:41,900 --> 00:29:43,890
Because any false move could be,

973
00:29:43,890 --> 00:29:46,460
like, a direct insult to them.

974
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:48,560
Like, what...

975
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:49,840
What do you do?

976
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:51,920
Whatever you do, if they don't

977
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,000
have opposable thumbs, don't

978
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:54,600
wave.

979
00:29:55,180 --> 00:29:56,450
Aliens hate creatures with

980
00:29:56,450 --> 00:29:57,960
opposable thumbs.

981
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:00,290
Where did you acquire this

982
00:30:00,290 --> 00:30:00,920
knowledge?

983
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:02,870
Are you saying that aliens are

984
00:30:02,870 --> 00:30:04,650
biased against things with

985
00:30:04,650 --> 00:30:06,100
opposable thumbs?

986
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:07,770
What about things with opposable

987
00:30:07,770 --> 00:30:08,260
tails?

988
00:30:10,260 --> 00:30:10,560
There are creatures that have

989
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,240
opposable...

990
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:13,890
What about creatures with opposable,

991
00:30:13,890 --> 00:30:14,560
like, feet?

992
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:16,890
Like, with, like, toes that can

993
00:30:16,890 --> 00:30:17,840
wrap around a tree.

994
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:18,780
What about that?

995
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:21,420
I made it up.

996
00:30:24,900 --> 00:30:26,220
Okay, so...

997
00:30:26,220 --> 00:30:28,140
But, like, the whole idea of

998
00:30:28,140 --> 00:30:30,530
first contact is kind of scuffed,

999
00:30:30,530 --> 00:30:32,840
to use your modern terminology.

1000
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:34,400
Not that I say that.

1001
00:30:35,260 --> 00:30:35,860
You have.

1002
00:30:36,020 --> 00:30:36,420
I know.

1003
00:30:36,500 --> 00:30:37,450
I don't say it that much

1004
00:30:37,450 --> 00:30:38,460
anymore, though.

1005
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,070
Yeah, because I've used it one

1006
00:30:40,070 --> 00:30:41,060
too many times.

1007
00:30:41,140 --> 00:30:41,960
It's not cool anymore.

1008
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,780
I've shown that I have too much

1009
00:30:45,780 --> 00:30:46,160
riz.

1010
00:30:49,900 --> 00:30:51,340
I deserve that.

1011
00:30:51,780 --> 00:30:52,080
Anyway.

1012
00:30:52,380 --> 00:30:52,980
Wait, hold on.

1013
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:53,500
Hold on.

1014
00:30:54,180 --> 00:30:54,580
No.

1015
00:30:55,140 --> 00:30:56,000
Don't do it.

1016
00:31:00,740 --> 00:31:01,010
You clapped your hand right

1017
00:31:01,010 --> 00:31:03,240
next to my ear.

1018
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,160
That was so loud.

1019
00:31:04,740 --> 00:31:05,000
Anyway.

1020
00:31:05,380 --> 00:31:06,620
I'm just saying, the whole idea

1021
00:31:06,620 --> 00:31:08,700
of aliens and contacting them...

1022
00:31:08,700 --> 00:31:09,670
Like, we presume it's just

1023
00:31:09,670 --> 00:31:10,520
going to be so easy.

1024
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:12,330
We're just going to, like, send

1025
00:31:12,330 --> 00:31:13,620
them a bunch of math.

1026
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,200
That's universal constants of

1027
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:16,080
the universe.

1028
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:17,760
Or we'll send them, like, tones

1029
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:18,900
that are in primes.

1030
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:20,300
But what if they can't perceive

1031
00:31:20,300 --> 00:31:21,540
sound the way that we do?

1032
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,040
What if they don't perceive

1033
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:24,760
light or anything else the way

1034
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:25,460
that we do?

1035
00:31:25,540 --> 00:31:27,060
What if they're so different

1036
00:31:27,060 --> 00:31:28,860
and so far removed that, like,

1037
00:31:28,860 --> 00:31:30,530
they'll get the record from,

1038
00:31:30,530 --> 00:31:32,240
like, the Voyager probe.

1039
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:33,980
Take one look at it and be like,

1040
00:31:33,980 --> 00:31:35,020
hey, it's a frisbee.

1041
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:36,540
You know?

1042
00:31:36,660 --> 00:31:38,020
Like, they might not even know

1043
00:31:38,020 --> 00:31:38,840
it's a record.

1044
00:31:40,220 --> 00:31:40,670
And yeah, there's instructions

1045
00:31:40,670 --> 00:31:42,360
that should be able to instruct

1046
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:43,600
them it's a record.

1047
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,740
Like, there's a little thing

1048
00:31:45,740 --> 00:31:47,730
showing how the record will

1049
00:31:47,730 --> 00:31:48,400
work.

1050
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:49,420
Yeah.

1051
00:31:49,580 --> 00:31:50,970
But even then, how would they

1052
00:31:50,970 --> 00:31:52,480
even make sense of anything?

1053
00:31:52,660 --> 00:31:53,700
So, I don't know.

1054
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:55,010
It's just an interesting thing

1055
00:31:55,010 --> 00:31:55,800
to think about.

1056
00:31:55,980 --> 00:31:57,940
The nature of life, the

1057
00:31:57,940 --> 00:31:59,880
universe, and everything.

1058
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:01,250
You want to know what would be

1059
00:32:01,250 --> 00:32:02,100
really funny?

1060
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:02,640
What?

1061
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:04,720
If what happened in pixels

1062
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:05,620
happens.

1063
00:32:06,580 --> 00:32:07,020
No!

1064
00:32:08,300 --> 00:32:10,400
It's not impossible.

1065
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,130
Well, that was a high note to

1066
00:32:14,130 --> 00:32:16,060
end things on.

1067
00:32:16,900 --> 00:32:18,480
A reference to an Adam Sandler

1068
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:19,220
film.

1069
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:21,550
Anyway, so if you have any

1070
00:32:21,550 --> 00:32:24,090
thoughts about aliens or alien

1071
00:32:24,090 --> 00:32:27,240
abduction or anything like that.

1072
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,180
Or alien, the movie.

1073
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:29,700
Yeah.

1074
00:32:30,540 --> 00:32:31,720
Like, that's a whole different

1075
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:32,880
conversation.

1076
00:32:33,780 --> 00:32:34,840
Feedback@nontopical.com is

1077
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:36,170
the place where you can

1078
00:32:36,170 --> 00:32:37,580
communicate with us.

1079
00:32:38,020 --> 00:32:39,270
And if you happen to get any

1080
00:32:39,270 --> 00:32:40,830
value out of the conversations

1081
00:32:40,830 --> 00:32:42,060
that we randomly have.

1082
00:32:42,700 --> 00:32:47,440
Then, by all means, go to 

1083
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,340
ko-fi.com/nontopical.

1084
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,430
And toss us whatever amount

1085
00:32:52,430 --> 00:32:54,780
indicates to you the value that

1086
00:32:54,780 --> 00:32:56,120
you received.

1087
00:32:56,220 --> 00:32:57,980
So, if you were entertained

1088
00:32:57,980 --> 00:33:00,150
enough for a dollar, then toss

1089
00:33:00,150 --> 00:33:01,060
us a dollar.

1090
00:33:01,060 --> 00:33:02,820
If you were entertained enough

1091
00:33:02,820 --> 00:33:04,760
for $15, toss us $15.

1092
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:06,630
If you were entertained enough

1093
00:33:06,630 --> 00:33:08,520
for our hypothetical $1,000.

1094
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,220
Then we are really grateful.

1095
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:12,490
But anyway, because I don't

1096
00:33:12,490 --> 00:33:13,420
know that we're that

1097
00:33:13,420 --> 00:33:14,300
entertaining.

1098
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:15,750
We're entertaining to us and

1099
00:33:15,750 --> 00:33:17,560
that's really all that matters.

1100
00:33:18,300 --> 00:33:19,640
He's entertaining to him.

1101
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:21,840
Boo.

1102
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:21,960
Boo.

1103
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:23,720
Anyway.

1104
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:25,640
So, aliens.

1105
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:27,340
Are they out to get us?

1106
00:33:27,500 --> 00:33:28,560
Is the government hiding

1107
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:29,840
something about them?

1108
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:31,550
Or are they going to just

1109
00:33:31,550 --> 00:33:33,700
destroy the planet to make way

1110
00:33:33,700 --> 00:33:35,760
for a hyperspace bypass?

1111
00:33:37,180 --> 00:33:38,060
Let us know.

1112
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:38,940
Because we don't know.

1113
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:41,360
Any other thoughts, sir?

1114
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:43,300
42.

1115
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:46,040
42?

1116
00:33:47,100 --> 00:33:47,740
42.

1117
00:33:49,780 --> 00:33:50,880
Alright, that's it.

1118
00:33:51,140 --> 00:33:51,860
We're...

1119
00:33:51,860 --> 00:33:52,960
Goodbye, everybody.

1120
00:33:53,580 --> 00:33:53,880
Goodbye.

1121
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:54,080
Bye.
