"All right, tiny little buddy, this whole island was bewitched. No I'm friend oh my. Far from home but come on you remember we were shipwrecked together. Yeah, mama. Welcome to this bonus episode of sound opinions. I am Greg kott, my co host is Jim dear goddess. And if you want to be the first to hear our bonus podcast, become a sound opinions member on Patreon like Dirk bender from Georgia. Thank you so much for your support, Derek. We really appreciate it. Hey Dirk. Once a mod always my brother, that's right. Now, as you know, we always save some time and these bonus podcasts get musical interest topics that we could not cover in the regular show. And this is a special one today, Jim, I think, give us a hint of what you're going to talk about. Well, we have to pay tribute to the second member of screaming trees that we've lost in a year, one of the Connor brothers, van, the bass player. Absolutely. We're going to hear more about that in a minute on sound opinions. We are back Jim and you want to pay tribute to van Conner. Just a key figure in the Seattle music scene, although they technically weren't from Seattle, but they were from the state of Washington. Now they move there, you know, after coming together in high school. Van and his brother Gary Lee formed the screaming trees in the mid 80s. How did the back of their parents video rental store? Remember video rental stores? In ellenburg, and they met Mark lanning in high school. We lost mark, one of the best vocalists of the entire 90s old grunge era. Lost him in February 2022. And now van is gone, dead at the age of 55, had been in poor health for a time, dealing with pneumonia and a really bad bout of COVID in 2022. Van Conner was the gregarious loved by seemingly everyone who ever met him. Bass player of screaming trees, but also a songwriter. You know, van and Gary and Lanigan had songwriting credits on many of those songs together. And of course, Gary's guitar, you know, that wonderful psychedelic metal. You know, truly a style that helped imprint all the music that was coming out of Seattle in people's minds. What is the sound of Seattle? It's that guitar. But the base, you know, it doesn't go anywhere without the base holding it together. Lanigan in 96 said that van was the band's key man. Quote, van is the screaming trees. He is the heart and soul of the man. That was in a beautiful tribute piece that veteran Seattle journalist Charlie cross wrote about screaming trees and the loss of van Conner. So many songs I could go to, 7 albums in their lifetime, 7 studio albums, and then later, final record came out after the band was officially broken up, but would occasionally get together again. He had a solo album. Coming back again in 2019. Most people, though, probably know, screaming trees if they know them at all, for nearly lost you. First single, released in support of album number 6, sweet oblivion shows up on Cameron Crowe's soundtrack to singles. And everybody and van had a little cameo. But a self effacing guy, as recently as just a couple of years ago, he said he never even seen singles. Oh yeah, I remember going up to Seattle to interview a bunch of bands and van, of course, was always gracious. He's always ready to talk. And he goes, yeah, there's this movie. They're filming here. All right, you know, whatever. It's such a fun guy, 'cause I have family in Seattle. So I was there a lot of bit. I would get together with van and one night we went to go see tad. Yeah. This was before Seattle was like Seattle. This was a former butcher tad. We're just having. So of course, tad is about one of the few human beings on the planet that's as big as van. They're both just gigantic personalities and also gigantic huge physical presence. So Ted is up there waxing rhapsodic, playing doing his show. And van is out on the dance floor. With his girlfriend with his girlfriend and they are bouncing up and down and having a ball and some guy decides, I'm gonna slam dancer in the show. So he bumps into van's girlfriend. The next thing I know, van is on top of the guy the wrestling on the floor, like he's fighting this guy. There was a lot of wrestling with the Connor Brooks. They would often break into wrestling matches on stage. And it was always, you know, because langan was always this wraith like presence, right? And then flanked by the two Connor brothers. Oh my God, it was an imposing and imposing band. And I gotta say, Jim, you know, singles and all that put them on the map for a lot of people, but they made a half dozen records. Including a bunch with SST before anybody knew who they were and they had right away they had a very distinctive sound. They weren't a grunge band at all. They were a psychedelic garage. They had this swirling kind of atmospheric sound going that was really a melon. Amazing. They're bringing in this psychedelic soul thing. And Latin just doesn't get his due as a vocalist. Oh, they were all great. I mean, Gary and Gary Lee wanted to be like a heavy metal guitarist or something. He was rolling around on the floor and going to be looking at him. Like, what are you doing now, brother? It was a fun band to watch. And you know, I got to say, the SST stuff that they put out. Very, very, very good. Song transfiguration. When I heard that song, I was like, wow, who are these guys? You know what? Where do we go to pay tribute? We could have chosen dozens of songs, but I figure you know you've heard this even if it doesn't come to mind immediately. Let's go with nearly lost you. One of many, many classics from the screaming trees, in tribute to van Conner, dead at the age of 55. I nearly lost you there and it's turned on. I never lost you there let's try to sleep now.

"Burning questions. That's great. Fantastic. Everything about that is awesome. All right, let's start at the bottom, guys. The 32nd team doing the night king. It's like sizzling. Gilbert arenas back in the day. I'm starting at the bottom. I think the number 32 team heading into the years of Seattle Seahawks and my burning question for these guys is just quite simple. How long will they stick with the Geno and and drew lock combo? Because at some point they need to get a move here at quarterback and whether that will be Jimmy Garoppolo later on or someone else in the trade market before the October deadline. It just doesn't seem feasible that they can stick with these two guys going forward unless they are in full on tank mode. For Bryce young or CJ Stroud or one of those guys in next year's draft. Well, I think if you don't mind, this is the first burning question. I think the burning question is how long will they stick with Geno? Because they're going to stick with the Geno lock for 17 weeks. 17 games, 18 weeks. I mean, if it's not working out, last thing they're going to do is trade for another quarterback to save a season that's best to be tanked. So the question is, maybe, you know, do they really believe in the genome lock? As the answer, to me, Gino starting, they deep down. If you put sodium pentothal into Pete Carroll's gum, like if you got a stick of gum and you inject it with sodium pentothal into it, right? Yeah. And so he choose it and he's got to tell you really what is on his mind. He believes that Geno and Locke can get this team to the playoffs. When a Super Bowl, he probably like, I don't know about that. This is not our year for that. But the question is, is how long how long can Geno last? Because at some point I think Locke is going to get a shot this year. And they might not be 32 overall, but interesting that you choose them that way. So 31 is the bears. You're going bears next. I'm going Texans 31. That's low. Okay. Well, I've seen some mock drafts where they're number one and they're taking a quarterback, but I don't want to do every question about the quarterbacks, but for me, it's basically just how many wins will it take to shake the Watson stink? Like, deshaun Watson is going to loom over this team. I think for quite some time, just because of the way he sat out last year, the Texans settled Seuss that weren't even brought against them. But just how many wins will it take? We know winning is the ultimate deodorant. So how many will it take to kind of shake that Watson stink this year for Houston? How many wins would it take? Yeah.

"Kyle Shanahan's press conference yesterday in light of sticking around with Jimmy Garoppolo, he's still there in the same quarterback room with the starting quarterback who job Jimmy took. Last year, or he took Jimmy's job this year, Jimmy's not upset. I mean, to use the Seinfeld phrase, everybody's all copacetic. So that's coming up in this hour. Chris brockman shortly. With a new segment here on this program, burning questions. Chris Brock brockman's burning questions, right? That's right. We have a drop for it too. Yeah, I think so. We got a little production value. All right, let's come on over. You get that ready. You get that ready, fella. TJ Jefferson, good to see you over there. What an hour we just had. Mark Andrews of the ravens, James Connor of the Cardinals. Our new friend of the program, his name is Joel stetler. He's a third grade teacher in Fresno, California calling from, as he said a fusion chair, he's the guy that I, along with Susie, we saw him take the stage of the killer's concert on Saturday night holding up a sign saying that he wants to come on stage. He's fighting cancer. He wants to come on stage and play a song with the band. He did, he was so great at it. The whole place went nuts. I tweeted out a video of it, and he saw that, heard our conversation on our show earlier this week and just called in, man, we have a wonderful chat with him. And if you missed it, go to our YouTube stream, YouTube dot com slash rich eyes and show the four 5 7s in the chat room. Our sitting there and commenting on everything. And I heard during the commercial break an hour number two, words that normally would, I think, frighten most men on Planet Earth is your wife is in the chat room. And so Susan's been she's been active in the YouTube chat room this week. Just a few comments here and there. She also texted me about a rich eisen show fantasy league. What are we doing? There have been behind the scenes discussions about having a show fantasy league as TJ will point out to anyone who will listen. He's been trying to do this with us for years and no one has really been interested. 'cause how many leagues are you in? I'm in one that I actually care about, but we do the Alice chains lead. That's two. And I do pick them. I do survivor. You're now in this third one with journalism. I gamble. I got a lot going on. I can't remember. How old are you? 42. And you got a lot of astronauts going. I have a problem. So, you know, adding another league to all of that is, you know, a lot of you gotta have time to gamble. I really need to focus on really a need to have a good job. He put a pool in, so, you know, is that what it is? Well, you're not betting that much money that I'd pay for a pool. Absolutely not. Absolutely not. However, you know, that's not nothing. Well, I mean. So what would this fantasy league be? It would just be amongst us, and then we would invite fans to join us. No, no, I think it's just going to be everyone here who works on the show. Some of our villains Ryan leaf and lions. I see what she's that's it. Yeah, yeah. Okay, because normally Suzy's always about involving our fans. We can get the that's what we were originally told she really cares about being in a fantasy league with us. Originally talking about just like the staff. No, I know. But just knowing Susie, her interest in it would not be that she wants a team. Let me ask her in the chat instead of talking. I think her interests would be, you should involve some of the fans to get a giveaway a spot or two for a fan to compete with us. That would make things more interesting to me. You could have a team or a couple teams where you let someone coach the team that week, even. Oh. Who? A fan? A fan, like switch it up every week. You can do that with your team. Your team. Actually do it. I'm not going to, I'm a control freak. I'm not giving up the steering wheel. That's like saying, you know what? I'm saying it at the blackjack table. I'm just going to give up that third base position to. Just bring anybody over here in Vegas. Kevin federline looking dude, come over here. During one adjacents many back surgeries, he trusted me to run this fantasy team while he was that's different. That's different. That's not what we're talking about here. It's the morphine talking. So I went for him, you know, a big deal. He knows you. That's not some random individual that you don't know. That's a good point. You would assume a fan of this program has the proper sensibilities to hand a team over to, but even I would not do that. Well, I didn't mean your team. I think designate a couple teams. I think if we do 16 team league, I think we have a ten to 12 team league. If we do this, and then the only way I would do it is if we involve fans that somehow randomly select a fan or we have fans call in and make a case. Because he can't have people do this and then not run the team. As you know, I've kicked members of this show out of a league that we're due, because they didn't pay attention. So you're going to have auditions for this. Our own our own family has tasted my wrath. My own family. Thank you. That's tasted my scorn. Because there wasn't enough focus on the roster. You got a lot of going on. You had a lot of everyone's got a lot of going on. So I turned it over to my ten year old who didn't have much. You know, there's usually taken an S when we got to get out of the house. Wow. Come on. He's at school right now. It's his first day. He's not listening. Oh man.

That's that if yes. I think that prescription is ruins the entire game if the if the game is one of practical ization division or infinite constant schizoid never ending shattering. Then that's the only way that would stop it is you just. It's god what is it that the my meditation teacher. I'm sorry david you are listening. This totally ruin what you think. You're this quaint and social media and get misquoted. lor it's from a buddhist scripture. it's idea i'll forget. Forget even mentioned david nick. It's di di that everything is already broken. It's broken beyond. Its broke a long time ago and so like going around and like doing this. You know the sad thing or something that someone loves shatters on the ground and they're like oh my god get the pieces and then glue and we'll get back to where but it keeps breaking and breaking and it's just it's broken just enjoy. How beautiful little bits of glass. Look when they're shining in the light and that's the best you can do and maybe in their the frenzied never-ending attempt or shift damn thing around so it makes sense ceases and then some peace comes right is that is that idea. I think so. Yeah i love it. Yeah just accept. everything's broken. I think the nas sticks people ask when the end of the world is the nonstick said. No the end of the world already happened god fragmented and became crazy. That was armageddon. We're sort of floating in the flotsam and jetsam of this and we've got a swim back to the beginning. Even philip k dig you say how simon megan paul and buddha there actually travelling backwards in time instead with us humans because they wanted to get to the beginning. One thing that the nas tics were obsessed with. What's why they were called deb. Psychologists is always wanted to go back to the garden of eating to history to their own pass. Because i know we live in a time that says oh live in the blah blah blah but. The truth is all of us. Each one of us has an amazing amount of trauma. Even if you don't have trauma we've got ancestral trauma. We got our country's trauma. We've got the gods trauma so they thought they wanted to go back to find out what had happened and understand it and in a strange way rectify it even if it was just sort of a fiction or You know trying to write about was it. I mean what does the story. Pinocchio says if you wanna find the end go back to the beginning. And pretend that's in. Pinocchio and in the in the gospel of thomas the apostles ask them. We'll how do we know how the end is. Jesus says the end if you wanna know the end goto the beginning and you will rule over all. So thanks again. They were like history's first depth psychologists and again. That's why i liked him. Because i got tired of these religions saying well. They've been the present. How come. I've got all this trauma as a kid. I mean i can't. I've got all this shadow inversions and dreams and unconscious behavior. I keep getting in the same fight with my wife and it reminds me of my dad's so i don't wanna live in the present anymore. I wanna find out how. I got so fucked up. I thought i was the only one who got in the same fight with his wife reminded his dad. We're program no that's crazy you too. Yeah i know well it's you know. Isn't it the way it's been described to me is. It's more on the lines of like. Yeah the present with all your apps running which that's your trauma that's your story. That's the whole all of it. The which is a very real thing. Yes that fuck that present. I don't want to be in that neurotic neverending vortex of self criticism and meeting my own narcissism meeting south. You know this infinite are horrible huge. Yeah but that's the stewart but underneath. That story is the thing i where i've had. It happened a few times where you wake up after you've been in the horrible fight with your wife after you've been in some awful things happened the night before and it's like your system before boots up. What happened the night before. You're laying in bed. You know like what a beautiful day and you know what i mean and then you remember. Oh fuck i got a dui. My car got inbounded. Oh my god. I said that you know but before that it is. I think that's what they mean when they say the present moment is that that eternal fundamentally good reality that is un corruptible. You can't what are you gonna like the way trump rinpoche a pause it is you know.

"I mean that's the forbidden words. I mean i remember my. I grew up in western north carolina. And i remember in our algebra class. The algebra teacher taking a little break from teaching math in deciding to go into how a snake and talk. And there's nothing in. The snake is satan was added later on and then the flood story right there i used to be. I was very lucky. My mom was a very progressive catholic and read joseph cambell so she was like oh. These are just myths of ancient people. But because that'd be like you know. God is he's drowning the centers but what about the babies and the kittens. What did they ever do to god. What a monster. And just made no sense they unicorns dread the dinosaur the drown the dine unicorns. The sasquatch god only knows. I'm sure there's a god literally only knows. I'm sure there's a plethora of adorable mythological creatures that got drowned because god was mad and a few dumb asses eaten in the arc noah got hungry and ate all the griffin's or some fucking gnomes. He found out. The gnomes chased like chocolate. Started going down there in the middle of the night we couldn't sleep chopped up some gnomes. But you know. I i love this. I love this verse jacob's ladder by the way another glorious nas dick parable and cinema. If you haven't seen it y'all it's amazing the original. I think they remade it. But the originals incredible and his chiropractors an angel and just going to mention that during the back adjustment he is my first encounter with meister. Eckhart was from his chiropractor and jacob's ladder where he says the part of the soul that burns and how is the part. They clings to life and wrapped up in that to me. Is the idea that if you want this grand reunion with the original predictive force. There's a price and the price. Is everything everything you have to let go of all of it completely. You can't hold on to this world at all amen. And yes that's that's what. I love the nas ticks because of they took a really hard stance against evil and suffering very much like the buddhists. They said no. We're drawing the line like you said. There is one way to become who we really are and we just gotta let go. That's the only way as the the guy says in the movie. Those those demons will turn into angels. You gotta go and most religions. Oh no materialism's okay. Everything's gonna be fine. Oh evil is the absence of good. And we're going to be saved the nas ticks and to an extent the buddhist where like no punk rockers. We're going to spiritual war. We are not compromising one inch with you with the world with everything. We're getting the fuck outta here. What does it look like what do you. What is that. Look like from in the times that we're in now. What does that level of letting go look like well. It has to look like anything i mean. Yes if you look. Historically the nas sticks were part of the community. They were going to the universities that were learned men and women. They're far more accepting of women but again it's your attitude it's who you are. It's nothing it's almost like. It's nothing you're going to do and it's your ideas that are going to make you dangerous. I mean you look for example. The catharsis the famous Medieval heretics that dan brown made famous and have been part of lower in europe. They were very caustic and they they would go around in southern friends talking about They switched the damage to satan. But they'd said no. This world is ruled by satan. You gotta give up your material possessions when you're ready. That's they always said if you want to be part of the inner circle when you're ready you join us but they would go preaching this existential crazy edged lord kinda shit and they were beloved by the people in southern france. The catholics loved them. They were protected by the knights. Templar and everything so my point is is sometimes. It's not so much what you're doing is how your ideas are affecting people and are affecting others because the catharsis became an existential threat to the church. Just like the nas ticks and they had to bring down the the weight of the church and of political power in europe to take them down. I mean inquisition started with the catharsis and then moved onto women and jews and other people. So it's your ideas that are going to change the world. Because if you have the mind of god dunkin then you are endless imagination. You are bottomless innovation. You are just exploring. You are an artist. Creating just new reality in greater realities. That's how you change things you make the universe of more beautiful place a different place. But that's gonna piss off the arkan's and as soon as you have those ideas they're gonna come after you hard. So that's okay it to me when i'm thinking of this. It feels like there's a weird pathway for lack of better word transcendence this kind of like just waking up like waking front completely waking from the material universe and being home like you know the wonderful thing that happens when you have the shitty dream where you're like being mauled by a bear and then you remember. Oh i'm having dream and then you're like i'm just being by a bear. It's a dream and then you wake up and you forget about it. It's just done. It isn't to me and i think the spiritual bypass critique maybe is related to the sense that there is this possibility of not you know they say in the world but not of the world feels like in narcissism this idea of actually you could actually not be in the world and you can go and gain this power from god this remembrance of who used to our but your job is still in the world again. I call them a christian body shot. Fas it's almost like either we all get out or none of us. Get out your here in the wheel and it even talks. There's a book called the secret book of john. Jesus says no. If you start waking up look for somebody who's more advanced than you in lifetimes and hang onto his robe or have them teach you how to wake up further so they did. The nas did have sort of this christian idea where you really had to help people whether it's helping the poor in the material world or helping others try to wake up. There was never that idea of spiritual by if anything you look. At the early christian church the the desert fathers and the monks in the byzantine empire. They're the ones that would go into caves. On top of trees or monasteries and starve themselves and we must be holy in piety. The nas ticks. Where the ones like. No we need to be out with the people and see in connect with them at their level in great myth and stories that they'll understand and try to help them wake up. Wow that's so intense so what you're saying it makes me think. Oh yeah. They didn't go anywhere. There's they're here just as much as they ever were. But the way that we know them is through all the art they gives that fluttering feeling in your chest where you're like wait. No that's more than just a movie. I'm sorry it might be cheesy. And honestly i'm so sick of people saying it's like the fucking matrix honestly like it's like so annoying. I know it's like the goddamn matrix. That's why it's the most powerful modern myth. We have today you got. It used to be like the wizard of oz every analogy when we were young was the wizards. Even though the wizard of oz is nonstick people relate to the matrix because as a myth. I think we all know. It's kinda true what morpheus said. You know there's something wrong with the world you don't know what it is. It's like a splinter in your mind driving. It's a popular. It's the most popular mid today. Because all of us have consciously no it's true. You know that song leonard cohen. Everybody knows he was influenced by kabbalah. So he's we all know unconsciously that the game is rigged the dice was loaded from the start and we are trapped and i think as humans beings were never going to be satisfied where we are..

"That's why people have called narcissism parasite religion because it sort of infiltrates different religions. Ling the sufis in islam. Or the the the christian nas ticks in rome because they wanted to absorb the rituals of different cultures than use them in adopt them into their own practices but they always involved altered states of consciousness ecstatic feelings and so forth. So i mean the sufis. The dancing dervishes. That right there is a way you just slam coffee. And you dance. Until you just feel a law coursing through you. So that's what confuses people why the office had said very rituals but that's because as they came to different parts of the world. They needed to sort of find what was going on in the culture that they could adopt some of the obviously the mystery religions ones it up told. You are from the early times in alexandria. There's other there's another one where simply doing contemplation until you have no says he sit there and you just start thinking about the material world. Start analyzing yourself until you start feeling something stirring and altered states of conscious there were some groups of nas ticks. That would just sit in a group and tell each other problems two thousand years ago. They're doing group therapy. My emotions are broken. I need healing trauma. I mean carl. Jung did call. The nas ticks history's first depth psychologist. Because they saw our mind is the mind of god in there would really explore who we were very deeply and they were into dreams altered states of consciousness and just human development is. Do you ever worry that technology or you know. The potential of some technological super intelligence is a way for these are cons to go from being a kind of. What's it called the negra gore sort of invisible thing to a visible ruling force. Does that ever creeping. When you're considering like the hockey stick of you know that we're looking at that ray kurzweil and the trans humanist talk about you ever wonder like oh shit the. Ai is the are condescending or appearing to like you know finish the job to eliminate the last flickering bit of hope that we'll ever be able to achieve this noces that produces the potential for liberation. Yeah that's well said. And i would agree. I mean the arkansas are depicted as mechanistic animalistic. Solis they could easily the they sound almost like a i or some sort of machine and of course that's exactly their goal is the complete snuffing of human awareness. I mean even says. I think in the gospel of philip philip. The mother of all sins ignorance to the nas ticks. That was the worst sin because anybody who's connected with themselves and consciousness will be a good person because that's really the natural state of a human being. I mean you know dogs. Don't do stupid things to each other. They follow their nature so the pack will survive. Human beings awake are going to be doing good and working together and be full of empathy. That's what philip k dick call the divine spark empathy. I mean that's something that's very rare. In the universe and the arkan's their job is to stifle our awareness Make us very making machine like Make us asleep so they can keep feeding off of us. And that's always that's always been the goal and they have different ways obviously in their texts. Sometimes it's they talk about the garden of eden as an evil place because in the nonstick techs. Adam and eve are trapped there and jesus has to turn into the serpent to wake them up and he's like look all these fruits and beautiful things. That's what's keeping you trap. Wake the fuck up and we can look right now. Our phones and social media and all this bullshit divide and conquer stuff you see on the internet and politics it can be something materialists than makes us fall asleep but also they use fear one thing the arkan's love to do in very much in the texas they love to rape and this is the great analog analogy. They love to take away our agency. They love to make us fearful and their loved to make sure that we disassociate with our own consciousness. And fragment until we have no idea who we are so yeah as above so below. I would say a trans humanism is a great reflection of the arc. On's up there and then all sticks would be horrified at it this but you know what i feel like with any of trans humanism in particular. I've got many transient friends. I just did the singularity university podcast. I love rakers. Well and i think that trans humanism and all of the technological incoming technological realities do prevent do present the possibility of going even deeper into the never ending fratelli zing quagmire of the material universe but potentially another avenue for liberation. They you can't have like what you were saying in the beginning if you're going to have some self reflective consciousness and then that's going to create the never ending iteration that we call reality they within that you're always going to have the thing and it's opposite the dialectic or whatever and so so potentially trans humanism yeah definitely. It could be the thing where death like. That's what i love about nauseam at flips everything on its head christians. Hearing like what. You're what are you talking about. Jesus was not the serpent friend. You know that caused azam. And i think this is why the early christians were like fuck you nas ticks right. I read that much of what we know about. Nauseam is from the early christians bitching about narcissism. And why it's wrong. But i think christians might say look. You're going to get this. You're gonna get christianity and the first thing that's going to happen is the devil is going to take that pure beautiful very clear to all the totally make sense and warp it and make turn it into something. It's like the most confusing shit already anything to it. But you know. I i love your youtube channel and you know i've learned a lot from it. You know i would like one thing i love. This is an old one from two thousand fourteen. And i'm sorry. I can't remember the guests. But you know you were talking about the garden of eden. And you were talking about the weirdness of that story and he was saying. Look if you want to accept the garden of eden as it is in the christian book of genesis. You gotta do some heavy fucking lifting for that shit to work because you've got a deceptive god plural deceptive god. They're saying we they become like us. Who's the we who's the us who's the thing that came down and we're with the daughters of men. What the fuck is any of that shit. And it's in the very first book the bible that's in the churches where people like. This is totally normal. Totally normal totally normal. That god would keep us in a garden and lied to us. The tree would kill us. It didn't kill us. So yeah i. I'm going to side with the nas ticks when they're like you're supposed to think that's fucked up. You're supposed to hear that story and be like what's why would you to us. He wanted three their kids. I questioned it. Didn't you question it when she like. i'm gonna get slapped for his but i'm gonna side with adam and eve on this one in the snake. Yeah i mean yeah exactly..

"Low level disney. Where the thing trying to be disneyworld is never going to be disneyworld. But it's trying to be the creepy fair. Whatever that's what we're in now but this is something that i was thinking of and this is something that really gave me the chills. Have you considered or have the nas. Ticks written anything about the possibility that we are the dim urge. The reason we're here is not because we're soles. That have been trapped within matter but that we are the dragging thing and the only way to protect the rest of whatever. The rest of everything is from us is to keep us mesmerized and internally trapped with our own narcissistic interaction with our own identity. I mean what the hermetic say as above so below what happens in heaven corresponds on earth and philip k. Dick was the one who said. Yeah you may think of arkan's but we are the true arkan's we give our consent. We dilute ourselves. We project outward some of said the. You're just simply are human faulty way of seeing god. As soon as we change our attitude on what god is then we see the real god but of course that takes wisdom so that is definitely possible. I mean we could be. We could be. Maybe we sent ourselves down to play a role in a video game. You know our cells are up there. And we've said okay you're gonna forget miguel and dunkin are gonna forget who we really are and they're going to be down as meat sacks in this dimensional this video game on a podcast for point so that's another possibility well as still always tell people if you will these days when people ask nassir said sink of a simulation theory as elon. Musk and neil degrasse. Tyson said again. Nobody in western history really talked about simulation theory except the nostitz two thousand years ago and probably plato in with his allegory of the cave. And then change that too. And then mix that with cosmic horror lovecraft. What does it say. We're not alone in the universe but what's with us is far more powerful probably indifferent or made us in wants to eat us and if you step too far from the road if you explore too far if you ask too many questions go to high in the sky. These giant supernatural things these lizard people. These are guns. They're just going to eat you even if we're already they created us and we're already there food combine them and you've got a good model for narcissism except nas. Decision is not nihilistic. It's more christian ext existentialist we. It's almost hopeless. But at the end of the day we have the power if we wake up. But this is what i want. Really wanna get to. Which is that part of it. I'd be this. This is of all the of all the aspects of nozzles. Confused me the most. It's the noces part. this is it. Enlightenment is this is no says equivalent to eastern ideas of enlightenment. Well i mean. There are parallels between buddhism and ostracism. That's pretty apparent illusionary world. How the self is almost a noble reincarnation. A deep sense of introspection noces to start with is is somebody said wisely. It's not the result. It's what brings a result with neo. Takes the red pill that's it that's knows he sees the world as it is and morpheus says you're the one but he's still got to do the work you still have to do the rituals to bring about your divine spark in reconnected with the alien god. So that in communion you become fully divine and what's interesting. What miss what's misrepresented about the nas ticks. People say well. they're just spiritual bypass they wanted to do. These rituals and fly away to beyond the universe and commune with god and forgetting no. They want it to be transformed into fully humans to help the world one as one scholar calling us that we're christian body shot fas to be fully human is to be fully divine. The nonstick said. And you're not fully human unless you're down here helping others. They believed in healing. Good works trying to wake others up like you know. Hey man can you wake up. Let's let's let's do these rituals so no says you. I'd say the entire process but at the end of the day that feeling of ecstasy pure joy that's indescribable. That's there's no name for that. I mean salvation. I dunno somebody now. These rituals this is. I'm not familiar with any nas tick rituals. Or what does this look like were they. Were they taking. Some kind of psychedelic is key on the illusion mysteries. This wrapped up in it. Yeah good point if you look at. the rituals. Many are very similar to what we know of the mystery. Religions that idea of ego death like the freemasons where they bury you in a coffin. Or as you go down to haiti. I don't know if you've done your wasco but one of the first things about ayahuasca. Is that every fear. Every insecurity has gets thrown at your face a thousand times. You wanna die you feel like you are in the pit of a grave and these rituals by the nas ticks. Were like that. It seems that you're going down to hell. Demons are tearing you apart and you're able to withstand but it's all ego death it's your ego just being torn apart when it's completely torn apart than these rituals which they probably reenacted would send you up to heaven in through this star portal and in the rituals that we know there were joint moments. There was drinks Some church fathers said when the the nas stick like this guy. Marcus magician. He would put like some herbs and it will change and they would drink it and the women would just change their the there were stoned and so then you go through these rituals where you sort of awaken in their consciousness. Yeah there were there were consciousness or their bodies or cons. They were an state of consciousness. And then you would have these ecstatic flights again. When i did iowa sky did leave my body a few times and but you'll be armed with these passwords because to the nas takes. It was like a video game every level of heaven or the dimensions. Some of them had like three hundred sixty five dimension each ruled by narcan. You had to give this arc on your password or a magical word so you could then go and make contact with the supreme mind and come down and be more fulfilled or individual. It'd each time now. That's just one rituals cause some nas sticks as propose the nas sticks were so there was such anarchists that they divided into lodges something that the religion started with ancient egyptian priests who were kinda disillusioned with the roman empire who brought these ancient mysteries to like dissatisfied jews or pagans and they started talking and doing these rituals that's how narcissism started because the ancient ancient egyptian mysteries do have a lot of nonstick elements. And of course they added their own ideas but these the the important thing is some scholars of said in that confuses people is that first comes. The noces is like oh my god. I realized there's something wrong with the world. I feel something stirring. But what am i gonna do about it. Well i need to find the rituals or the people that can facilitate this noces. So therefore you have a very Group or Catalogue of ritual some nas. Ticks would do sex magic others would do sacramento practices in rome. Others would do Dancing or mystery..

Absolutely and they created a group show tv series. that is so beautifully. True to the movies that you will be grilled and might. I also named drop again in mentioned that my friend rob shroud is directed to to two episodes of creepshow and they've got psycho fucking gorman. It's actually called psycho gorman not psycho gorman which is an awesomely hilarious horror movie i could go on and on about how awesome shudder is or you could just check it out and try it for free.

Remember that you remember that movie that used to make me shit. Hot bricks of fear fire anytime. We ended up in a lake when i was a kid. Thank you so much shutter for sponsoring this episode of the dt f h. What are the things i love about. Narcissism is that it is where my mind goes. when i'm taking like a very powerful psychedelic. There is a sense of kind of catastrophic situation that has happened where these two things that maybe were never supposed to meet have come together and can't sort themselves out in any kind of harmonious way and it is producing this feedback loop of suffering that we find ourselves within you know. I don't want that to be the case but that has been an experience. I've had more than a few times on a variety of psychedelics. Just as though this horrible never ending debate has been going on between matter and spirit and it can't work itself out and it just keeps going and going and going and and somehow we've become swirled in battleground for each one of us is the battleground with heaven and hell or matter and spirit or whatever you animal and human god so and so you would expect if this were the case for that too it would have to appear in every work of art every story everything in the way that fisher wet you would expect some strand of this to make its way into just about everything maybe you can help settle want to call it a an argument but my what i was telling my wife i think mary had a little lamb is some kind of nas tick him him or something and then she google is like no it's not it was eighteen hundreds it came from but who have you ever thought of the words of marietta little lamb from the perspective of nauseam in please i will not be offended if you say next question honestly a heaven for some reason i'm thinking of william blake and his tiger tiger and the lamb of god william blake was hugely influenced by nas schism so right and the force of the night now let me just read marietta little lamb forgets. I don't have it memorized. I have more william blake. Memorize marietta land. But on second look it up again. I'm sorry all i know. We have a great mind with us today. Sorry for doing fuck. Mary kill an advance. And i'm sorry for this. I do think there's a connection mary. Mary marietta little lamb. His fleece was white as snow in everywhere. The children went. That land was sure to go. He followed her to school. One day. Wait this is a some. Of course. When i had to do a revision of it. Oh my or something. Yeah somebody did like someone decide. They're going to the point. Is marietta little lambs fleas white as snow fodder to school. One day it goes something on the lines of it made the children laugh and play and then the teachers turned it out. And so i've heard that that holy shit is the little lamb is that sophia is mayor. Or you know the the the liberating nas nonstick energy is school. The arcangues or the teachers are cons casting out the light and did that make its way into nursery rhymes. I i don't know but to me that is obviously the matrix is one of the great modern example but to me that seems to be as subliminal. I don't know description of this situation. Which is this. The light of god comes into the world book of john. The in the beginning was the word. The word was made flash. The darkness didn't understand it. I think is how it goes something like that. I don't know what do you think no. No you hit it on the head because the nas sticks were the first read commentary on the gospel of john and many said. It's so nasty. Because this jesus is very the nothing saw jesus as having superpowers shape shifter and he could walk through walls and he's sort of this this amazing being in you look at the gospel of john and the message and it's it gets very nostitz now as far as mary. You're one hundred percent right and this is another important element the six again. They didn't just pull stuff out of their ass. They were looking at all the great minds. One of them was obviously plato. If you look at the allegory of the cave that's a nas tick myth and one three three hundred. Bc we're trapped in a cave and we don't these people these are are putting shadows and one of us can escape to the light and come warn others wire you trapped in looking at shadows instead of seeing so they're not stick saw that these great minds were giving nonstick hints and truce and then they just sort of they really brought it into maturity with the christian all sticks in the her medics but one of plato's ideas the fall of the soul and its adventure in through the spheres and into matter. That's what plato said the sole falls and it falls in our body. We are in the material world in greek and in judah in hebrew the soul is feminine so this great story is clothed as this heroine who falls but it's always this powerful story about sophia falling into the world. And how she's gonna get out. You see that. Some of said that the odyssey helen of troy is the sole falling into the clutches of cheese. The lamb falling into the classroom. But it's troy. You look at allison wonderland. Great nas. neo platonic tail. Alice falls from real world into wonderland. What does the caterpillar tell alice. You are a terribly real thing in a terribly fake world and why you are in so much pain. Because she's the law soul wizard of us right there. Dorothy falls into this. Fake world of arkan's fake money in witches and the wizard is sort of the great Symbol for the damage because he's just another materialistic profiteering person so this idea of the soul falling in feminine. yeah. Mary alice in wonderland. Dorothy you see it over and over through literature art and movies. It's such a terrifying way of looking at the world. Eight creates the possibility for a real kind of paranoid way of looking at just about everything i've been there. I know a lot of people listening to have been there those moments where maybe you're too high. Maybe you're just having a bad day and you look around and you think this shit is fucking real like not. It's it's not whatever this is isn't anything it's it's fake as fuck and then you get you know anytime you meet you in flipping up. It's a very common. Like in the truman show when the light falls from the sky or you looks over and he sees the engineers that that's a very nonstick film. Now i feel it. I have a question for you. This is something. I in my exploration of my contemplation of nonstick ideas. The idea of this dim ear. This being in correct me if i'm wrong. The daime urge is jealous of the progenitor and in that jealousy sees this like actual real reality and synthesizes it. that's what we're in the synthetic version. We're in like the the shitty like amusement park version..

"Which one do you fuck. Which one do you marry. Which one do you kill while you wanna fuck sophia. You want to. Why my fuck sophia. Because sophia in the nasty texts she is a part of god's mind that got lost in the matter she is the divine god is here to help us remember who we are. Even though in some texts she is the reason why the universe fell. She is the disobedient part of god. The nonstick saw god is a giant. Mind this incredible mind that had all these features truth faith honor and sophia wisdom was one of them and she is she rebel because some said she is wisdom. She can't just be static in this timeless realm. She has to experience the world because wisdom wants to experience wants to know some. Get pretty gritty. Some think that she actually she wanted to have an orgasm by yourself because she was a woman she she wanted. She's lucifer fahrian and she wanted to. Sort of rebelled and go on her own way so she falls into the world and she does give birth to the damage. Your questions might be hard. Because if i if i if sophia fia her son's going to be furious with me yeah exactly the supreme being of this universe. Yeah so so is a very mercurial magmatic figure we see the nas ticks. Basted if you look at some parts of the old testament. The book of wisdom and others you will find in proverbs. You'll find this figure called wisdom. That doesn't seem like a metaphor. She's there with god at the beginning of time. She's they're creating with god so they're not look at the old testament said there's this fall in wisdom even the book avena says Wisdom came to the world of men and nobody everybody rejected or and she had to go to a cloud so they assume this enigmatic figure was wisdom and they made a part of their myths in their narrative and of course. It's a great metaphor for we need to find our wisdom in our minds so that we can become sane just as god needs his wisdom to come back to this eternal room so it can become sane. It's like god is gotten lost in some kind of meerer or something like god looked into something and is become completely like frac allies within that thing when we're all this strange reflection of hit but how how is this possible. How is it possible that abraxas or whatever the like outside the matrix you know per genitive force. How is it possible that the thing that is the source should become lost within the the reality that emerged from it. Well that's a great question. Everybody's been asking right in the no stick. Certainly speculated in their techs different ideas. And this remember from the christian in the hermetic. Nas ticks at Even though it was persecuted and died out there history it did manifest through the catharsis. The muslims sufis the jewish cavaliers the persian mazda kites and this nasty extreme always has existed throughout history. But it's just so edgy. Because when you know when you tell people this world is a prison all your churches and institution and governments are controlled by these are gones. The very david eick. We're getting right. David does create sort of a modernistic caustic myth It doesn't go well with the powers that be but underground nas have always been able to thrive but very edgy. But they had different explanations. I mean some of said as soon as you have. Let's say in. Hinduism you have that With brockman as soon as consciousness asked the question. Who am i what am i. The answer is going to appear right. It's like i am the great khan i already become fragmented eternity. I am this as soon as you become fragmented. You're already losing something or you're also casting a shadow because as soon as you say i am good. There has to be a response in the cosmic. Mind well what the hell is evil or or you have to speculate. What is evil. What would evil look like. So these were the answers that as soon as a cosmic consciousness became aware we had to happen. Evil had to happen and we had to be trapped. Others were more zora astra and they said no. No no that's bullshit. There's always been light in darkness there. That's a principle of reality so therefore as soon as light starts to stir darkness is gonna wait for. Its turn to fight the christian on sticks again. had this idea that wisdom. Because there were so dependent on the jewish scriptures they were dependent on the goddess ashira of the ol- hebrews and Segment of the egyptian said. No wisdom rebelled and that caused a collapse. So they speculated but again these myths are trying to explain an existential truth like The the the neoplatonism and the greek philosophers. They never said this was literal but they said this is as close as. We're going to get that feeling that where you know the truth in our monkey brains we're never gonna find out on this level of consciousness dunkin. We so best we have is myth. You know i'm talking. Joseph cambell that sure myths are the closest thing to point to a transcendental truth..

"Miguel. I'm so excited to have you on the show. Thank you so much for being here how you doing. I'm doing great. Thanks for having me on you. Know is. I've been preparing for our conversation today. I find myself in a wonderful predicament. Which i have so many things i wanna ask you i. I don't know where to start. So i guess i'm going to start with the most boring mundane but i think essential question for folks. Listening aren't familiar with pasta system at all. Irv only vaguely heard of it. Can you give us an extremely brief history of nas decision. Because i'd rather get into the philosophy. And i know the philosophy and history intertwined but it'd be nice to have a little background to use the diving board that we're going to jump in to the subject from woo. Yeah that's Let's see the elevator pitch. I'm trying to sell you on these evil heretics two thousand years ago. That's whose philosophy seems very more relevant than ever. I'm sure as we'll talk about. I guess to start as a good baseline or foundation. We'll tell your audience. Think of the movie the matrix that right there is a modern pasta. Gospel of any of your audience likes philip k. Dick nostra's isn't hugely influenced. Him and of your audience likes the ideas of karl yune. You've gotten ostracism. Have you on something even more. Modern starting to realize a matrix matrix is getting kinda dated for like zuma's and so forth. But then think of the lego movie or the tv series westworld or the recent film bliss or something like that but in short the nas sticks were a movement that started or actually i would say gain maturity about two thousand years ago and Sort of branched out into two ways. One is the pagan her medics And the other is the christian mystics probably both started in alexandria egypt That great metropolis. Where all these ideas sort of student so much speculation. We got the neo. Platon is mystic hellenistic. Jews just coptic christians a great but the nas sticks really caused a stir in the nassan christian religion because they posited that we lived in a simulation as my friend gordon wide said the nas ticks. Say we lived in a false world because that idea definitely appears in the east here in the west. And i said no. The idea is not false. This is a faked world. We are trapped in a world it's been coded on purpose to keep us. Humans here the concept of the prison planet and we are here because of something that we have we have something call a divine spark as the nas ticks called a two thousand years call it the sold human consciousness and this sort of divine spark fuels the vary in some text the very universe that we live in and who trapped is here the nas ticks they had varying ideas. The hermetic really were more positive. That matter just fell in love with this divinity and brought us down and here we are sort of understanding each other. But the christian mystics had a lot of harsher grim they foresaw like there was this called pre cosmic cataclysm and basically in short as scholar. Stephen davis said godwin crazy and became us part of his essence mel into the universe and was coveted by these Solis mechanical beings that they call the damage in his arcand. And the nas ticks associated the damage. With the god of the old testament. Because it said there's no way this dude is the father of jesus. This guy is bad news but they also associated the. You're with other gods like zeus or saturn. Over cyrus and trapped our cosmic devine's are divine spark your to feed on us so us as humans. We had a duty or for some of us. Human the ability to wake up and realize that we had a shot of divinity assured of eternity within us and we could basically awaken this cosmic divinity like neo in the matrix taking the red pill and we could commune with this As they call it. God above god Some of the nas. Ticks called god above god abraxas. Who makes an appearance in the midnight. Gospel yes so this and so we could be awakening by the teachings and facilitation of this nas. tick reveal. lower. Like morpheus in the matrix morpheus. Job is to sort of help neo sort of get himself to becoming the one we can all become the one. The nonstick saw this nonstick reveal her as often as jesus didn't see jesus sort of saving us from our sins but waking up to our true nature to be able to escape the wrath of the arkan's here in this simulation but they had other nonstick reveals. Mary magdalene sophia simon. Mehta's some nas take saw. The buddha and zorro asteroids nonstick reveal irs and they could facilitate which you might call our noces. A central point of the nas sticks. Which is this direct experiential knowledge in connection with this god above god this higher consciousness but also would and also revelation of this false world that we are trapped in and this knowledge always seemed in their texts like this ritual this astral travel ecstatic ritual. One thing about the nonstick says they were ecstatic shamanistic movement. You had to bring yourself into an altered state of consciousness but at the same time it's also a mode of self knowledge. Self knowledge is very important as once again that scholar. Stephen davis said My salvation is the same as gods psychotherapy. If i save if i go in and touch upon my divine spark and get rid of all the deprogramming and the false layers of who i am and made contact with my inner god. It's the same. As of i took some shamanistic outer journey beyond the stars so no says was very important to the nas ticks. i think that's a good summary. And yet i'm breakdown to other things. Like divine spark reincarnation how they deconstructed techs other things you might wanna touch upon. But it's a it's a good summary of who the nas ticks. Were is the best summary. I've ever heard of narcissism. Thank you for the listeners. I know there might be a lot there for you to unpack like i think you probably gathered from it why i love narcissism and it will probably be perpetually confused by it. So here's a really blasphemous question for you and i hopefully after hearing your description of narcissism people even get the question you've heard of the game. Fuck mary cal. No i have not so. It's like fuck. Mary kill if you had these toys you had these people to choose from. Let's say donald trump the loch ness monster santa claus. You gotta fuck one. Mary one kill one. What do you pick you know. So fug mary kill the demi urge abraxas sophia. Which one do you fuck. Which one do you marry. Which one do you kill while you wanna fuck sophia. You.

We Tested the Alpha Beta Exfoliating Body Treatment Peel
"I've been testing out the dr dennis. Gross skin-care alpha beta exploiting body treatment peel. So it's fifty eight. Us dollars and seventy six canadian dollars for just eight towelettes so definitely up there. But the price point I was a little surprised at that price. Point so comes in a box of age. But i've noticed that they've just started selling a box of two so the box of two is sixteen. Us dollars and twenty one canadian so if you just want to try it and that's a little bit more reasonable. Okay so what it is. It's an all over body polishing treatment. That visibly improves. The look of ingrown hairs caritas. Polaris dry skin and helps reduce the appearance of body blemishes in on even skin tone so comes in this foil packet. Carlini conner looks like the size of like two credit cards put side by side and textured towel when it's unwrapped it measures eight and a half inches by five and a half inches. Okay the biggest difference between this and the peel for face is there's no like step to quote unquote. You know with the alphabet appeal. You normally do step one. You let it sit on the face. And then you like neutralize the peel. Okay you do not oh interest. Oh that's like a significant difference. So they say you can use this on normal dry combination oily skin and it's really to address uneven texture. Acne bunches dryness. I personally loved this product. And for me i do get a lot of breakouts on my back and i have been getting more. It's so annoying just because my hair is so long right now.

Marketplace Tech with Molly Wood
Fever-screening devices used in many places are not helping control the pandemic
"At the beginning of the pandemic almost exactly this time. Last year we heard a lot of promises about the types of technology that could help us. Stop the spread of the disease. One of those tech miracles was supposed to be thermal cameras devices. That could read someone's temperature from distance. Companies bought them in droves thinking that installing them at the entrances of schools. Airports are offices could stop sick people from but do they work. And did they ever conner. Healy is the government director at the vm. A video surveillance research firm. He recently co authored. A study on fever scanning devices and said many have one large flaw while we found that they're accurate but not just that they're accurate that they're accurate in particular way to fever. Cameras are taking a reading of a person surface temperature each time you get scanned. But they're adjusting that reading before it gets shown to the user is evaluating whether or not that person should enter facility and if the readings quite low they'll adjusted up the readings high village down The upshot is that this results in reducing temperatures should be reported as fevers to normal range reporting them as normal. I mean you're saying it really nicely. It sounds like what you're saying. Is these do nothing. And there's no point in using them. I like i can't imagine how that would ever produce an effect that would keep people safe if what you were trying to do is keep people with fevers out of building. Yeah well well. I can't imagine how keep people safe either. But it's more than the fact that they're just not detecting fevers. They're actually actively telling people that they're temperatures are normal. What's your understanding of why that software exists in the readings are getting revised or they like compensating for low quality centers. In my opinion they are making up for poor performance. As you suggested you know. In many cases they're using lower resolution sensors and that's part of it but just sort of comprehensively when you look at the design manufacturing implementation and marketing devices. There are so many pieces that get in the way of doing accurate temperature screening with a thermal camera and this compensating algorithm creates an appearance of normal function and nobody investigates normal temperature or considers it odd that somebody's temperature would be normal when it's reported by one of these devices and so if they're either poorly manufactured or or not used in a way that's consistent with how they should be used. In order to take accurate readings the compensating algorithm. Might make up for that and make everything seem like. It's working just fine. What do the company say for example seems like at least one of them told you it was you know to make up for a factor like people coming into a building from the hot sun. Yeah some companies. Use that justification. I mean the the thing is that if somebody's coming in after being in the hot sun what the fda says and what the ice says which is an international group of scientists convened came up with guidelines for human temperature screening with her. And we'll cameras. What they say is that people should widen side for fifteen minutes at room temperature before being screened for exactly that reason. That coming in from hot. And bahrain man or cold environment will affect the reading that you have so the correct solution to that is not to simply adjust the readings. So that they're more normal. You also noted that some of the companies selling these scanners only got into business in the past year. Likely because of covid. Is that a cause for concern. Yeah absolutely was quite typical is that they are actually not manufacturing them. They're they're buying them from someone else and relabeling them. That is a big concern. Many of these smaller companies would not and have not been able to answer questions about why their devices might even have a compensating algorithm because they will not no. I mean when there's something like this there's always a rush to sort security theater. And i wonder if over the past year. Have you seen any use of this technology. That's actually been successful that we know of in helping slow the spread of covid in general. No i can't think of an example to give you. I'm sure that there are set ups out there You know. I'm sure that there are many. That are done correctly. And that are potentially accurate enough for him screening but they would be. It would be quite rare. Should there be some rules like if these are being touted as medical devices or medical grade devices that can keep people safe going back to work or school. Should there be more stringent requirements. So there are rules and those rules were essentially waived. The fda said going to object to a new devices coming onto the market. We don't want the supply it's being almost a year since they said that There is plenty of supply now and the rule should be put back into place are there. Fda approved scanners that work. There is there. There are ones that that work in the sense that they don't have a compensating algorithm. Mendel the work. If you use them correctly so yes and

"Aerial. Thank you so much for joining me man. It's good to have you back my old friend pablo. It's good to hear from you. You don't call as much. But i do get very excited when you do reach out. Aerial halawani has covered mixed martial arts for fifteen years and he hosts the dc in hawaii. Podcast for espn. I don't call you much. But i call when it's important and it's an important time in your life right now in the life of conor mcgregor right now. You just spoke him in a big sit down four. Espn ahead of this. Weekend's big fight against us poor area so how would you describe how. Connor is feeling mentally right now. So that's a great question. Because i've been covering connor since two thousand thirteen since right before his have debut in. I've obviously seen all the extreme highs and lows of his career. Of course it's been a roller coaster especially the last few years when he became this This megastar this time around. Had you asked me which connor would be in front of me. When i spoke to him would it be the zen like connor. Would it be the trash talking. Connor the jovial connor. You know all the different iterations. I would've said it would have been the urinated conor mcgregor upset conor mcgregor the conor mcgregor. Who had big plans in two thousand twenty to fight. At least three times to fight manny pacquiao right. Reclaim his spot. As the man the king in may but none of that happen instead. What got pablo was actually got a very relaxed conor mcgregor accountable gregory who is like slouched in his chair. I've never seen him sit like this before he was wearing a new custom suit but he's wearing slippers as well sort of like all of us working at home these days as always already all we focus on the positive side. I was ready to continue and it didn't go that way. It is what it is. I still have that inside me now. I'm still ready to go of kept. Preparations are back. And i'm very happy to be back. Twenty twenty one. We're going to replicate this again. I'm starting the year force. Pay per view of the year and a very excited about that. He was very chill. He was very calm cool collected. I don't know if i've ever seen him that. Calm before fight. So i was pleasantly surprised to see that i wanna get into how he may have arrived at that mentality because it's been a year aerial since mcgregor last fought. That fight lasted forty seconds. It ended with mcgregor knocking out. Donald sironi so can you take us back to the aftermath of those forty seconds. What was the expectation for. What would come next for conor mcgregor so going into that fight. Everyone who's like izzy back. Is he still good. Can he stay out of trouble all this stuff and then he comes in there and completely. You know rex ceremony. What about its many style. Vegas is on fire. He gets on the microphone from town. He's calling everyone out. King is back. I mean it's just an electric seen. Only he can bring to the fight. Game had opportunity to go in his locker room afterwards and interview him. And i would describe him in that moment as happy excited actually even a little emotional as well i. I saw him get a little emotional but not satisfied. He wanted to fight february. He in his mind needed to make up for lost time because he didn't fight in twenty nine thousand nine. He spent more time in legal trouble than actually fighting twenty eighteen. The one fight against habib twenty seventeen. The floyd fight so he wanted to make up for lost time. He was pushing to fight the following month. And if not he wanted to fight in march and then of course in march everything changed and what was so interesting about what happened in march was instead of being upset. The press annoyed pissed off like the rest of us that are plans are big. Plans are big twenty. Twenty plans had been derailed. Connor almost took it upon himself to act like a politician. What does that mean. So like conner had a very close relationship with the irish people and they loved him right they had this amazing support towards him and dislike this unwavering loyalty towards him and in two thousand nineteen. They kind of turned on him. And you know you can make a strong case that they were in the they were in the right to do a lot of things to really upset them. Most notably punching that that old man in the bar that was caught on camera and so in march when the country is down in its lockdown. And everyone's depressed. He's doing these presidential videos. Truly down must began and it must begin now. The literally you go online. And he's standing there like president politicians what they should be doing. We must our airports. We must all non-essential business. We must cook all non essential travel. I wanted to call upon my people that were eight people of ireland. This fight needs us all and he started leading by example and he started filming his home workouts and he started donating millions of dollars in personal protective equipment and visiting children's hospitals like say what you about connor and twenty nineteen in two thousand eighteen. He really was on his best behavior in the early portion of the pandemic and really took it upon himself to be this sort of a beacon of light if you will or this positive role model for these people and and i think that he stepped up a lot of people didn't expect that out of him and i think it was sincere was genuine but you know to try to give back to community.
