How important is working? What is with this anti work situation? Also how important are your feet to you?
00;00;01;03 - 00;00;05;21
Raghu
Welcome back to the fourth best podcast we have today, Rags. How's it going, Raghu?
00;00;06;07 - 00;00;07;20
Raghu
It's. Good. How are you, Dan?
00;00;07;26 - 00;00;11;21
Dan
Oh, man, I'm doing all right. Didn't get a chance. Go to the gym, though.
00;00;11;26 - 00;00;14;25
Raghu
Yeah. What happened?
00;00;15;00 - 00;00;27;15
Dan
Sometimes when you go too hard at the gym, you just. You just go too hard. So I think, um, what I did was from double unders you. I don't know if you did that.
00;00;28;07 - 00;00;30;12
Raghu
But I don't think I've done that for God.
00;00;31;00 - 00;00;46;27
Dan
So pretty much in less than 10 minutes. You do? Okay. If you've got choices, the work, it's 10 minutes. You got to do 50 double unders. So that has. So that's skipping with the rope. Go underneath twice.
00;00;47;06 - 00;00;47;21
Raghu
Okay.
00;00;47;24 - 00;01;01;22
Dan
And then after that, after 50 of those, it doesn't even a real 50 of those, then you jump down and do sit ups. You do 50 of those. Then you go back to jumping rope 40, 40, 30, 30, 20, 20, ten, ten.
00;01;02;11 - 00;01;02;25
Raghu
Okay.
00;01;03;14 - 00;01;24;13
Dan
But if you do underneath 7 minutes that work go properly, then you've earned the right to do the other stuff. Okay? The other stuff is that you go, that you get to do two triple unders, so you get the rope underneath you three times in the air.
00;01;25;15 - 00;01;25;23
Raghu
Okay.
00;01;26;14 - 00;01;36;26
Dan
Twice. Then you get two muscle ups, then you four, four, eight, eight or a four, four, four, four, four, six, six, eight.
00;01;37;05 - 00;01;37;20
Raghu
Okay.
00;01;38;09 - 00;02;02;21
Dan
Then, then you work your way down. Obviously, I didn't get to that point. But the thing is that those double unders really did a number on my calf. And then, you know, your Achilles is attached to a heel. And then my heel started to swell up and I could barely walk. Okay, well, you saw me. Now I'm I'm I'm getting them healed is they can be dynamic, you know.
00;02;03;27 - 00;02;05;21
Raghu
I can't if you go see a doctor.
00;02;06;02 - 00;02;13;00
Dan
No. So if those only apologies happen, I won't be able to, you know, be dynamic and run in zigzags.
00;02;14;05 - 00;02;22;03
Raghu
So you'll be strictly weightlifting then. So you'll be strictly weightlifting then our debate.
00;02;22;05 - 00;02;39;27
Dan
No, I'm. I'm okay ish. Right now. I'm playing by day. How I wake up in the morning, see if. Well, if my foot feeling okay. It's strange you don't realize how important a until they're messed up by then is too late.
00;02;40;09 - 00;02;42;15
Raghu
Ah you can tie your feet up and then try to walk.
00;02;42;15 - 00;02;43;13
Dan
What you mean timing for you to.
00;02;43;23 - 00;02;48;21
Raghu
Just tie them up together and try to walk so you'll know how important your feet are.
00;02;49;04 - 00;02;51;08
Dan
What do you mean? Tie them up like put them together.
00;02;51;17 - 00;02;54;14
Raghu
You know, put to put them together or tie them with a rope and try to walk.
00;02;54;15 - 00;02;55;29
Dan
Just, like, hop around everywhere. Yeah.
00;02;56;13 - 00;02;58;24
Raghu
And then you'll know, like, how important your legs are.
00;02;59;08 - 00;03;01;28
Dan
You know, who actually has, like, the best. Probably, like, the best feet. Then?
00;03;02;11 - 00;03;02;29
Raghu
Then who?
00;03;03;11 - 00;03;07;01
Dan
The people in wheelchairs.
00;03;07;01 - 00;03;07;16
Raghu
What do you mean?
00;03;08;01 - 00;03;15;29
Dan
They don't really do it, though. If you were tweezers, they never did it. Like they're protecting their feet all the time.
00;03;15;29 - 00;03;19;10
Raghu
No, they are not protecting their feet. They can't walk.
00;03;19;23 - 00;03;32;00
Dan
Them. They're using it. Yeah, he he. You know, it's a good way to protect your feet. Never use them.
00;03;32;00 - 00;03;33;16
Raghu
I still don't get it.
00;03;33;28 - 00;03;35;16
Dan
He.
00;03;35;25 - 00;03;39;28
Raghu
That's okay.
00;03;39;28 - 00;03;43;27
Dan
Or just like intensive walking on crutches just because, you know, just in case.
00;03;44;06 - 00;03;51;10
Raghu
So talking about crutches, you know, who got into crutches? Who moglia at the gym mostly.
00;03;51;17 - 00;03;52;11
Dan
Oh, really. Again.
00;03;53;07 - 00;04;04;11
Raghu
Yeah. So he went to his rugby match on day one. Yeah. On the first day he brought or I, I don't know if he somehow he screwed up his ankle now he's on crutches now.
00;04;04;18 - 00;04;07;11
Dan
He, he was a crutches before though. That's a funny thing. Yeah.
00;04;07;12 - 00;04;09;09
Raghu
Like couple of months back he was just.
00;04;09;28 - 00;04;23;29
Dan
Yeah, it's kind of messed up. He says, oh, I can't do a pull up because my ankle hurts is at Gill. Yeah, yeah. You can't do a pull up because your ankle hurts. Yeah, man. Say what you do with your feet when you do these. Do these things.
00;04;24;09 - 00;04;39;28
Raghu
I don't know. He's playing rugby. I think he smashed, uh, he got smashed into like other people and ah, rolled over his ankle or something. But yeah, that's what happened. Like the same day as like you stopped coming to gym. He showed up in practice. I'm like, What happened to you?
00;04;40;19 - 00;04;47;11
Dan
So I put, I put that out there, you know, you know, like if I hurt, someone else hurts.
00;04;48;03 - 00;04;48;24
Raghu
Yeah. True.
00;04;50;03 - 00;04;58;19
Dan
The man that guy. That guy is funny, though. Yeah. Names. I don't know. His real name is me neither. You his?
00;04;58;21 - 00;05;01;20
Raghu
I kind of know it. I think so. It's Matthew.
00;05;02;02 - 00;05;07;19
Dan
Or, I don't know, whatever it is mostly. Mm hmm. I watched a pretty good.
00;05;07;19 - 00;05;08;10
Raghu
Dude to.
00;05;09;04 - 00;05;15;03
Dan
His. To movies. Okay. Mostly, you know, the movie mogul.
00;05;15;08 - 00;05;16;13
Raghu
Yeah, I know the movie mogul.
00;05;16;18 - 00;05;25;27
Dan
Yeah. Okay. Yeah, that's him. I okay. He.
00;05;25;27 - 00;05;28;06
Raghu
But the real mogul never breaks his legs, though.
00;05;28;07 - 00;05;40;13
Dan
Yeah. You know what? It was his. Because the, you know, because he had pants on his. He had a shirt and pants on and shoes. That's why. No, that's my mortgage. Never broke his feet. You never wear shoes.
00;05;40;26 - 00;05;43;16
Raghu
Because he never wear shoes exactly like my.
00;05;43;28 - 00;05;44;18
Dan
As mobile.
00;05;44;29 - 00;05;48;16
Raghu
App. Or maybe because he never played rugby or.
00;05;48;16 - 00;05;53;12
Dan
Okay, could be that bear. He was riding around in a bear a lot.
00;05;55;04 - 00;05;56;23
Raghu
That's much safer than playing rugby.
00;05;56;24 - 00;05;57;14
Dan
Playing with bears?
00;05;58;05 - 00;06;00;27
Raghu
Yeah. You get killed.
00;06;01;12 - 00;06;02;05
Dan
You get killed.
00;06;02;10 - 00;06;03;09
Raghu
Yeah, but you don't.
00;06;03;26 - 00;06;05;26
Dan
You don't hurt. You don't, you know. Yeah.
00;06;06;10 - 00;06;07;06
Raghu
It's like death.
00;06;07;07 - 00;06;07;20
Dan
Or.
00;06;07;27 - 00;06;11;03
Raghu
You know, death.
00;06;11;03 - 00;06;23;16
Dan
Well, you, you extremely were sick. I got a choice of hurting my ankle. Mm. I die. Yeah, I think I like, uh. I think I like to die today. Hmm.
00;06;24;06 - 00;06;30;21
Raghu
Yeah. I mean, if given a choice, like, do you want to sit in a wheelchair all your life, bro?
00;06;30;22 - 00;06;31;17
Dan
Have you seen their feet?
00;06;32;28 - 00;06;33;12
Raghu
Whose feet?
00;06;33;20 - 00;06;41;13
Dan
Like people in wheelchairs. Feet? Yeah. Looks like it has never touched the ground in their daily life.
00;06;41;13 - 00;07;05;16
Raghu
I don't know. I'm not being offensive, but it's just. I think, like, we get used to it and we get. We are so privileged, we never even think about all this stuff, right? Like my feet are good and everything are good and then people, people who are disabled, like they know the real stuff.
00;07;06;26 - 00;07;31;07
Dan
And yeah, it's a little sad though. Like, um, yeah, I, I'm not sure if you ask after who this guy was, I'm going to quickly look at it. But there's a there's an amazing rock climber out there. Mm hmm. And I think, uh, through a disease he might of, like, through disease, they had to chop both his, like, from a shin, shin down.
00;07;31;15 - 00;07;43;24
Dan
He had to chop his feet shin down. And like everything off. But then through, like, I didn't like but then he, I think as through rock climbing all of a sudden, like he became the world's best rock climber.
00;07;44;25 - 00;07;46;07
Raghu
Because he didn't have his feet.
00;07;46;14 - 00;07;59;27
Dan
Yeah, he didn't have a feet. He didn't have to he didn't have to worry about extra weight. Like when it comes to, like, rock climbing and all that stuff, it's all about weight. Yeah. You you want to be light when you climb.
00;08;00;09 - 00;08;04;29
Raghu
Yeah, but if you're free climbing, then you need your legs to push and where you want to go, right.
00;08;05;04 - 00;08;25;07
Dan
So that's the funny thing is like he got so good and he just had these pegs four feet and just like a metal rod and pegs actually he actually excelled at it. Then and people said there was a joke. People were joking around with him. Maybe I just chop my feet off so I could climb better. Like they're saying, like, as if he had an advantage.
00;08;25;07 - 00;08;33;11
Raghu
Wow. I don't know.
00;08;33;21 - 00;08;37;01
Dan
Uh, what do you mean.
00;08;38;11 - 00;08;44;15
Raghu
No? Like the. Did you watch the documentary on Netflix about the guy who climbs mountains without any.
00;08;44;15 - 00;08;49;26
Dan
Or Alex Honnold? Yeah. So what about him?
00;08;50;17 - 00;09;03;14
Raghu
I'm just thinking, right? Like, if you think about the people, like the way he climbs, he uses his legs all the time. And you're saying this guy didn't have his legs and he was able to, like, climb much more efficiently?
00;09;04;13 - 00;09;13;23
Dan
Mm hmm. Okay, here it is. Hugh Herr is like, he's a real life cyborg, basically.
00;09;15;06 - 00;09;18;09
Raghu
Okay, so he has the other legs, though.
00;09;18;10 - 00;09;43;15
Dan
Okay, so this is what happened? Mm hmm. So he heard, like, he was a very strong climber, but he below his knees in 1982 after climbing accidents from his knees down to the floor is completely artificial. So he was a he's a very good, strong he. So I don't know the exact details, but like he lost from an ankle or from his knees down.
00;09;44;10 - 00;10;14;18
Dan
He lost his feet. Yeah. And then everything and get amputated. Then he became like this crazy, crazy climber without his feet. Yeah. And people are like, what the hell is bullshit? Like, he's lighter, he's like £40 lighter. Yeah. Because he has these special feet even though he can't, like, angle and push, but he still has his thigh, so he can still kind of push up and he can hook onto these walls and like, you don't need to worry about gripping with your ankle because it's just hooked.
00;10;14;25 - 00;10;19;15
Dan
Yeah, of course. Your technique is not as good or is different is different.
00;10;19;16 - 00;10;20;28
Raghu
You get your set right so.
00;10;21;16 - 00;10;50;13
Dan
So on past that he started he against him in his group at MIT or uh, I'm not sure where, but basically he started a company that made artificial limbs. The artificial limbs uses A.I. So pretty much it predicts how you walk. And then, like when you take a step, it does all these special calculations and articulates how your feet goes when you walk.
00;10;51;05 - 00;11;10;14
Dan
So if you didn't know any better, like, you know, when you see amputees, like you would think like because they can't move their legs properly or well or it just is different. They kind of have a limp. You see this guy walking around, you would have no idea just because of the house how smart the prosthetic is now.
00;11;10;19 - 00;11;16;01
Dan
Now, that's some crazy shit. Yeah.
00;11;16;01 - 00;11;21;13
Raghu
Yeah. Like, uh, if that's. That must be costly to, like, not everyone can afford it, so.
00;11;22;14 - 00;11;36;14
Dan
No, I don't think anybody could afford it, but, like, I think it's a step forward of the the new age. Yeah. Especially with like that. You are musk is. Uh Neuralink. You know, you've heard about that?
00;11;37;05 - 00;11;37;18
Raghu
No.
00;11;38;03 - 00;11;39;26
Dan
You know. You know, you must know, right?
00;11;39;26 - 00;11;40;26
Raghu
I know. Elon Musk.
00;11;40;26 - 00;11;41;21
Dan
Besides his cars.
00;11;41;25 - 00;11;43;03
Raghu
What neuralink.
00;11;43;03 - 00;11;44;23
Dan
Is, you know what it is?
00;11;45;15 - 00;11;46;27
Raghu
I kind of know the concept.
00;11;46;29 - 00;12;05;28
Dan
Okay? So it's pretty much just a chip that put other like it's they cut a hole inside your head. Yeah. And put his lordship and they put like 10,000 different electrode, like, little wires to your brain. Mm hmm. Pretty much. What happens is that your brain then interfaces that chip, and this chip has, like, this weird little Wi-Fi kind of thing.
00;12;06;11 - 00;12;28;03
Dan
I don't know that Wi-Fi, but like some sort of transmitter to whatever you do. And then over time, you get used to using this new tool as connected to your brain, as if it was like your limbs, and then you could actually type things on the computer or test whatever you're the input speed from you thinking to the computer could be immediately.
00;12;28;12 - 00;12;45;05
Dan
Mm hmm. Versus right now, you've got to physically think of moving arms to the keyboard, type it out, watch, look at it, then kind of go with that way, right? Yeah. Well, what if the information was being fed to you directly right away? Like, say, if I'm talking to you, like, you know, when you pull a memory in your head.
00;12;45;13 - 00;13;02;00
Dan
Mm hmm. But instead of pulling your memory and pulling up Google right now, boom. Oh, hey, this person data like you read, like where I'm talking to you, I'm reading at the same time. Yeah. And then all of a sudden say, oh.
00;13;02;15 - 00;13;14;15
Raghu
That's going to be tricky. People will be reading their thoughts. And if someone can hack into your thoughts, they can really see what's going on. Your mind.
00;13;14;15 - 00;13;36;04
Dan
What do you mean? Like. Like you think like you would think it's hackable because everything that people make is hackable. Yeah. Okay. But, like, I don't know if it works that way. You don't know they've used on pigs. I think that you also put on a monkey and as monkey could play pong now. Yeah. With his mind.
00;13;36;04 - 00;13;53;08
Raghu
You know what I'm saying is like, uh, think about it. Anything can be hackable once you put it in there. It's just the process of, like, getting to figure it out, like how our human brain interacts and sent all the signals.
00;13;53;08 - 00;13;54;25
Dan
Oh, yeah. And, you know.
00;13;55;09 - 00;14;07;11
Raghu
Once you figure it out, like, you can know, like if people are telling the or people are telling the truth or are they just bullshitting around? Like, what are they thinking in their mind? Well, that's saying something to you.
00;14;07;15 - 00;14;07;26
Dan
Yeah.
00;14;08;01 - 00;14;10;25
Raghu
And yeah, it's going to be crazy.
00;14;11;18 - 00;14;13;10
Dan
You think that could be a thing? It could be, right?
00;14;13;13 - 00;14;14;11
Raghu
It could be a thing.
00;14;14;24 - 00;14;15;16
Dan
Would you want that?
00;14;15;21 - 00;14;16;00
Raghu
Nope.
00;14;17;00 - 00;14;23;01
Dan
Now, do you ever think about, like, I wonder what this person is thinking about and, like, you wish you could read their mind?
00;14;23;18 - 00;14;32;20
Raghu
Yeah, I wish, but I don't want to. Oh, there are times like a really wanted to, but I'm happy that I don't have that ability. So.
00;14;33;04 - 00;14;39;13
Dan
But, but like you say, you're happy. But if you were given this gift here, you're telling me you won't use it?
00;14;40;13 - 00;14;44;15
Raghu
If I was born with it, it's a different thing if I want to know.
00;14;44;16 - 00;14;52;09
Dan
No, I wasn't. You weren't born with it. You're just like you're walking down the street one day and this guy's like, Here, you can read minds now.
00;14;52;25 - 00;14;54;15
Raghu
No, I don't want it. Doesn't matter.
00;14;54;15 - 00;15;10;06
Dan
He's just a gift. Have it yet you get no choice using all of a sudden you could not read them. But like because you know, when people think like when you think itself is not straight, it's kind of it's scattered, right? Yeah. So you.
00;15;10;07 - 00;15;12;22
Raghu
Imagine, like, how much crap you need to read to.
00;15;13;03 - 00;15;15;19
Dan
You. What would you be reading now?
00;15;15;19 - 00;15;18;05
Raghu
That's what I'm saying. Like even if I can't read, I won't be reading.
00;15;18;16 - 00;15;38;25
Dan
You know, like, because, like when I like when you read something, that's not how your brain thinks, you know what I mean? And I'm not saying my brain exper a thing, but like if I was really think about it, like, if I read a word on a screen. Mm hmm. Like I have to process. What, a reading. Yeah.
00;15;38;28 - 00;15;57;18
Dan
Then think it. Yeah, but if I were just to kind of like, sit here and kind of imagine it, it wouldn't be in those type of words. Then I would imagine it. I see a full picture. Then I put it on to words and kind of like articulate what I just saw, what I just did. So like, it doesn't mean like it's not the same.
00;15;58;20 - 00;16;08;28
Dan
So when you read a person's mind, it's not like you're looking at a person and line by line you see a storyboard is more like, I see their vision, I see something.
00;16;09;15 - 00;16;18;18
Raghu
Yeah, you see something like which is going on through their mind at the time. Yeah. I don't so okay. If I'm given that power right.
00;16;18;24 - 00;16;19;02
Dan
Yeah.
00;16;19;11 - 00;16;30;04
Raghu
I saying like go through a person's mind, you don't know like how much stuff they're stored in their mind already. Yeah. So you don't want to go through all this stuff. You only want to find the important.
00;16;30;26 - 00;16;34;26
Dan
Important ones. Wow. Yeah. How would you find that?
00;16;34;26 - 00;16;36;27
Raghu
I don't know. You need to master it.
00;16;37;20 - 00;16;51;04
Dan
And be kind of interesting, though, right? Because if you if you were to really think about it, mind reading as like I read them like a book is like I don't think it works that way because you don't think like a book, right? Like you don't.
00;16;51;21 - 00;16;53;03
Raghu
Book doesn't think you just.
00;16;53;03 - 00;17;07;02
Dan
Read it. No, I know. But like like you don't mean like it's not line by line. Like you look at this chair, you don't think about like it's black, it has its cushions, look at her legs and has all these things you just quickly look at it and then you look away. But it's been imprinted in your head.
00;17;07;15 - 00;17;28;26
Dan
Yeah, if you can recall it, then you start to piece it in your head very vaguely. You just, oh, I think this kind of, it kind of looks like this. Me if I drew out, I might be a replicator. But like you to you look in your mind, I can't really picture it perfectly. Yeah. Like you would have to, like, bring it back into the physical world by like a drawing to kind of have it out.
00;17;28;26 - 00;17;30;23
Dan
But like, thinking about it is kind of.
00;17;32;11 - 00;17;38;16
Raghu
Yeah, that's, that's where the issue is. Like, I don't know, it's, it gets tricky.
00;17;38;16 - 00;17;39;27
Dan
Dan Yeah, you know, I.
00;17;39;27 - 00;17;55;12
Raghu
Mean, so think about like people sitting at a bar, having a couple of drinks and everyone, everyone has access to the thoughts of the other people. Yeah. So if there's a girl sitting over there drinking.
00;17;55;12 - 00;17;55;21
Dan
Yeah.
00;17;56;00 - 00;18;15;29
Raghu
Think I would like what, what other people will be like if she would be able to like redo the smiles, she'll be able to, like, see everything. It's same with guys. Like if he wants to see like if a girl is into him or not or what she's thinking, like just open his phone and look at it. But they won't talk to each other.
00;18;16;27 - 00;18;17;03
Dan
Like.
00;18;17;22 - 00;18;39;00
Raghu
I mean, there's good for it. Like, for example, for the people who are like, all right, who can't, who need some help, that would be helpful. Sure. But losing it on everyone is just going to be a tricky thing. Yeah. What, like dogs? Uh, if you put. If dogs were able to, like, read your mind.
00;18;39;00 - 00;18;40;03
Dan
Feel like they sometimes could.
00;18;40;10 - 00;18;41;15
Raghu
No, they could, but.
00;18;41;22 - 00;19;01;24
Dan
Not really read your mind, but, like, kind of like read use like this guy doesn't look right. I'm going get real close to the person. Yeah. So I don't think they read your mind. Will they be kind of know with that kind of like, you know, not like what I see you walk around and like, you're pissed. I could tell your peers, but I don't know if you're pissed.
00;19;02;17 - 00;19;05;20
Raghu
No, no, you know I'm pissed, but you don't know why I am pissed.
00;19;05;21 - 00;19;13;23
Dan
No, no, no. But either way, though, right? Like you, could you get the initial essence of what's going on? They get like you picture like, oh, something happened. Yeah.
00;19;13;23 - 00;19;16;28
Raghu
So that's, that's people knowing each other. That's.
00;19;16;28 - 00;19;17;10
Dan
Yeah.
00;19;17;18 - 00;19;24;14
Raghu
That's just, uh, what they say. I don't know the right word. Maybe a chemistry like you can read a person.
00;19;25;01 - 00;19;25;29
Dan
Oh, yeah, it could be.
00;19;25;29 - 00;19;28;19
Raghu
Yeah, yeah, but reading your thoughts inside your head.
00;19;28;28 - 00;19;48;21
Dan
It's, I don't think like, okay, if you could, you would, I don't think you would be able to tell. But here's, here's, here's a thought. Let's just think about this. If I wanted you say that, you would go back to the bars thing. Mm hmm. And like, girl guy like these are only two people in the world can read minds, and they're in the same bar, whatever.
00;19;48;21 - 00;20;10;13
Dan
Right. Or maybe they're not. They're different places, let's just say different places. Whatever one is in a one in a bar someplace else. Another one is a another location. You get the picture, right. She sees every guy's and then like she the only time you'd actually know what's going on is that maybe the only way that you can read the mind like you could be specific.
00;20;10;22 - 00;20;16;29
Dan
I could only read your mind in your specific moment.
00;20;16;29 - 00;20;19;03
Raghu
Like at this.
00;20;19;03 - 00;20;39;27
Dan
Time. At this time. So the only time I can read your mind is what you're thinking about right now. Mm hmm. Like, what are you like? Oh, look at you. You know, like, what are you going to say next? And that's all I hear. Like, because you repeat the words, you can say your head. So maybe the way that you read their minds is what they're consciously thinking of at the very moment.
00;20;40;12 - 00;20;54;05
Dan
So if you see like some of the girls see, the guy goes by and they create eye contact. She sees him and he sees her. He's going to think, oh, she's that right? Or is that. Ooh, yeah. Yeah. Could you imagine that. Yeah.
00;20;54;05 - 00;21;04;17
Raghu
Like that's that's a problem, right? Like, think about, like, the beautiful girl in the bar. Like, she's the beautiful girl. There are like.
00;21;05;01 - 00;21;05;20
Dan
Does she know it?
00;21;06;17 - 00;21;07;14
Raghu
No, she will know it.
00;21;07;14 - 00;21;09;19
Dan
She knows she's like the shit. Yeah. Okay.
00;21;10;11 - 00;21;14;27
Raghu
She knows like she's whores and then all the guys think she's hot. Yeah.
00;21;15;05 - 00;21;16;24
Dan
Oh, and yeah.
00;21;17;08 - 00;21;40;20
Raghu
But knowing a person and sees her so she feels pretty and special. And then there are some people who will be bitching about her, like, for example, other girls who are jealous about her. Yeah, because she's so hot and all the guys are looking at her, not at them. Yeah. So she'll be getting negative comments too. So depending on where you are and what you're doing, like it's not intentional.
00;21;41;02 - 00;22;00;20
Raghu
She maybe she just wanted to go to a bar, have a drink, and then maybe watch hockey or football and then just go home. That's that's a thought process, right? You guys are thinking she's hot, she doesn't care, but girls are bitching about her and she doesn't like it.
00;22;00;20 - 00;22;03;07
Dan
So do you think that's what Twitter is like?
00;22;04;21 - 00;22;06;20
Raghu
I don't think Twitter is like that.
00;22;06;29 - 00;22;30;25
Dan
Like people like it's anonymous right now. People. Well, you can be you could just create account and just like whatever. Yeah. So you think let's say you're a public person, like you go into this crowd and you're one like you just go into like a chat room or whatever, but you kind of people kind of know you and then they just regurgitate whatever you're thinking or just hearing that piece of shit, Oh, this person is really pretty.
00;22;30;25 - 00;22;52;28
Dan
This is really good person. And you have people kind of defending each other. Yeah, but you don't care. You just care about that one comment and one bad comment. You're a piece of shit. Yeah. So you remind yourself the reason why that comment hurts sometimes. Because you got to think back in your minds like, Oh, I did a really shitty, shitty thing that one time they called me out on it.
00;22;52;28 - 00;22;57;14
Raghu
So it works this way too, right? Like most people don't care what other people say.
00;22;57;25 - 00;22;58;13
Dan
Until that.
00;22;58;14 - 00;22;59;27
Raghu
Until they're important to.
00;22;59;27 - 00;23;01;27
Dan
Them, until it's bad.
00;23;01;27 - 00;23;27;27
Raghu
No, like until it's important to them. Like most things happen in your life. You don't remember it or you don't keep a grudge on a person who you are who hang that tune in your road. Yeah, you might talk about it today, but you will forget it. And then maybe you bring it up and laugh about it. Like maybe after six months, like when you're talking to a friend, like, yeah, this person told me so.
00;23;27;27 - 00;23;39;12
Dan
Yeah. Have you ever did that? Like, you're just like, you're just patting yourself, like, here's going on the today, dammit, that guy cut me off, motherfucker. You have you done that? Now I feel like you. Like you brought it up.
00;23;39;20 - 00;23;55;12
Raghu
And I'm I'm saying, like, when you're when the topic comes up, right? You're sitting with your friends and drinking. And then all of a sudden, one, one friend says, like, did this guy cut me off? Then you say, like, yeah, that happened to me like six months ago or something.
00;23;55;21 - 00;23;56;03
Dan
You know?
00;23;56;14 - 00;24;01;05
Raghu
Yeah, but you, you won't hold a grudge on him, like you just forget it and then move on.
00;24;01;05 - 00;24;03;16
Dan
I'm like, you might. I'm like.
00;24;03;18 - 00;24;06;06
Raghu
Okay, who's the last person that you.
00;24;06;21 - 00;24;07;03
Dan
Think it was?
00;24;07;03 - 00;24;09;03
Raghu
You know, I never hunger to you.
00;24;09;03 - 00;24;14;22
Dan
Yeah, you never did know because you would remember that attitude. Yeah, I.
00;24;14;26 - 00;24;16;16
Raghu
Really don't honk at people at all.
00;24;16;21 - 00;24;19;07
Dan
You just stick the middle finger at them. Nope.
00;24;19;07 - 00;24;22;26
Raghu
And I hope people know that, but otherwise they don't honk.
00;24;23;10 - 00;24;24;19
Dan
Oh, would you?
00;24;24;19 - 00;24;27;07
Raghu
Do you know when I honk, honk.
00;24;27;08 - 00;24;52;25
Dan
I know. But like, what do you do when you're frustrated? Then you play Herald. You know, I just. You should just. Just play. Get out of here. I'll deal that. I, I don't I don't I don't belong to them. I just self-harmed by pulling my arm here. I know that's how aggressive I was. When you get real angry, you start pulling your leg here.
00;24;52;26 - 00;24;54;27
Dan
I I'm so angry.
00;24;54;29 - 00;25;17;17
Raghu
That so, like, what do you do? Like, if you're driving on a freeway, the person in front of you is driving the speed limit, but you're in a rush and you to go and you can't really honk at them because they are doing the right thing and going at speed limit. It's you. We all need to rush somewhere.
00;25;17;17 - 00;25;17;26
Dan
Yeah.
00;25;19;17 - 00;25;26;16
Raghu
And you are so frustrated that this guy's going at speed limit in the car. So what do you do at that point?
00;25;26;16 - 00;25;36;17
Dan
You bump them, bump the. Do you want to? Yeah. Then you pull off, decide what happened and you just, you know, they'll never know.
00;25;36;17 - 00;25;37;05
Raghu
It's funny.
00;25;37;20 - 00;25;41;12
Dan
You just dumped them a little bit. Now, will you do.
00;25;42;00 - 00;25;42;15
Raghu
It this way?
00;25;42;24 - 00;25;56;02
Dan
You just zigzag back and forth to there. Then you try to act, then you move arms around so they can see you in the window. I don't know. And you point at them like maybe if you point at them real hard and they'll see you to the real me or.
00;25;56;02 - 00;26;08;03
Raghu
The person is. Or the thing is, like most of the people who drive the speed limit, they don't even look in the rearview mirror or anyway, they just keep going, thinking like they're doing the right thing and.
00;26;08;11 - 00;26;09;01
Dan
They are doing right.
00;26;09;02 - 00;26;19;13
Raghu
They are doing the right thing. But it's just that like some people have practiced something and then they need to have seen people like who never look at their rear window while.
00;26;19;13 - 00;26;20;06
Dan
Driving you're.
00;26;21;08 - 00;26;26;08
Raghu
Or the middle and then you even have an ambulance comes up, right? Like they won't be.
00;26;26;16 - 00;26;26;25
Dan
Back.
00;26;27;24 - 00;26;31;09
Raghu
And as soon as they hear it, the court everything off.
00;26;31;12 - 00;26;39;01
Dan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well you know there's a lot of bad drivers there. I don't hear a lot. All right.
00;26;39;26 - 00;26;44;05
Raghu
So, okay, how do you say it's bad or that?
00;26;45;08 - 00;27;06;12
Dan
Okay, what do I do? Find his bad and good if you don't know what sign the signs on the road mean. Like, say there's a little merge lane, but it actually actually says you merge into your own lane, then go to the speed of traffic in your own lane. Don't worry about merging in right now. Just know that you're allowed to go to speed.
00;27;06;20 - 00;27;24;00
Dan
Like you can turn into a lane and you get you get an opportunity to go to speed it air. Going to a you don't need to worry about them coming into your lane or you shouldn't need to because it's your late. Mhm. I hate it when people just stop right there in the corner. Treat cheater like e like you you dick.
00;27;25;03 - 00;27;33;01
Dan
This is a, this is a no stop zone. You got to go. Yeah. See that's bad driving.
00;27;33;01 - 00;27;47;14
Raghu
So for me the bad driving is like you're driving beside a guy who is driving slow in the left lane and then you try to overtake him and then that's when he realizes he need to go fast and then he speeds up. Yeah. And you can't take him.
00;27;48;16 - 00;27;49;05
Dan
At the race.
00;27;49;18 - 00;27;50;02
Raghu
No, it's not.
00;27;50;11 - 00;27;50;19
Dan
Like.
00;27;51;16 - 00;27;55;21
Raghu
He goes a bit farther and then he comes to the right lane and then he slows down.
00;27;55;29 - 00;27;56;24
Dan
Yeah, I'm like.
00;27;57;18 - 00;28;03;09
Raghu
I'm right behind you. You did not let me pass. So I came right beside do or.
00;28;03;17 - 00;28;03;28
Dan
Oh.
00;28;03;28 - 00;28;10;00
Raghu
And then I'm trying to pass you and then you pick your pace up. You go cross a car and then go to the right lane.
00;28;10;16 - 00;28;11;06
Dan
Yeah.
00;28;11;06 - 00;28;16;10
Raghu
Or just speed up and then go to the right lane. I don't know. People are weird on the road.
00;28;17;16 - 00;28;18;02
Dan
Well they're.
00;28;18;02 - 00;28;21;02
Raghu
No. And they were waiting to see about me like why is this guy.
00;28;21;10 - 00;28;26;05
Dan
This motherfucker? He wants to pass me. It's on me racing. Nobody gets past me.
00;28;26;29 - 00;28;36;19
Raghu
It's so funny. Like, I've seen this so many times. Like, they'll be going the limit or they'll be going a bit slower as soon as you try to overtake them. They just got it.
00;28;36;22 - 00;29;03;18
Dan
That's what. Okay. Another case of bad driving. This happens so much, they go 10 to 15 underneath the limit and that just them are just a roll of people going 10 to 15 under the limit. Yeah. So what are you doing? It's not construction. Why are you guys going so slow? I think what happens, like, you know, one problem I think will happen, like there's a one consequence of COVID.
00;29;04;02 - 00;29;27;23
Dan
I don't want to bring this up. I'll bring up one consequence that nobody talks more with COVID because people are have working at home for so long they don't need a driver anywhere for the virus to drive these dicks. I think I am moving fast because I sit down all day, oh no, I'm going so quick. So it's a I'm I'm high right now.
00;29;27;23 - 00;29;30;27
Dan
I need to just drive or whatever, right. Yeah.
00;29;31;20 - 00;29;33;03
Raghu
That yeah. I think.
00;29;33;10 - 00;29;33;17
Dan
That's.
00;29;33;26 - 00;29;53;08
Raghu
Mostly like what happens is like if a guy slows down and if, if it's and the other guy behind him slows down and then if it happens like two or three cars behind them, slow down. Everyone thinks there is a carpenter. And and the reason these guys are going slow and then everyone slows down.
00;29;54;07 - 00;29;56;25
Dan
Yeah. About 15 under.
00;29;56;25 - 00;29;59;04
Raghu
Yeah. Like if, if they can't see in front of them.
00;29;59;05 - 00;30;05;23
Dan
I know. Don't know. Right. Yeah. So that means you're blaming but you can't blame them personally in the front. Yeah. You never know.
00;30;05;23 - 00;30;12;08
Raghu
Wasn't going our friend. He might be just listening to nice music and then yes he, he just wanted to go slow that day. I don't know.
00;30;12;09 - 00;30;16;04
Dan
I'm, I'm always surprised you say he. What do you mean by he?
00;30;16;04 - 00;30;18;04
Raghu
He means poison.
00;30;18;04 - 00;30;20;02
Dan
Well, if it's a wolf, if it moves. Oh she.
00;30;20;07 - 00;30;22;07
Raghu
He can be she she can be he he.
00;30;22;07 - 00;30;27;24
Dan
She can be anyone. Okay, I'm just I'm just curious that you always think that Dick is always a guy.
00;30;28;01 - 00;30;30;17
Raghu
No, no, I'm not thinking the deck is always the guy.
00;30;30;18 - 00;30;30;28
Dan
Okay?
00;30;31;14 - 00;30;32;12
Raghu
But most of the times.
00;30;32;22 - 00;30;56;19
Dan
No, most of the time. Yeah, yeah, I know. But that one thing that the merge thing really gets me because I got one road that does that they like to just stop. Yeah. Just full stop. Like you see the red lights. Fine, they're slowing down, but then they stop. So what do you really see? That's bad. Driving another one is like when they blow back, blow by stop signs.
00;30;57;20 - 00;31;18;12
Dan
Yeah, that's pretty bad. Like, I've had a few times where I don't got a stop sign and then they just go and I see them as like, okay, I don't need to worry about it because you kind of see it. I've never been on this road, but whatever. Oh, I see stops I'm with I'm good. And then it just go, no, yeah, yeah.
00;31;18;12 - 00;31;31;00
Raghu
To do one thing, I was watching this video on Instagram. It's a story. They love someone, so they have this picture of just two cars colliding at a stop sign, right?
00;31;31;04 - 00;31;31;12
Dan
Yeah.
00;31;31;26 - 00;31;37;24
Raghu
And then it's in every country, all the accidents happen, and then they show India.
00;31;38;15 - 00;31;38;26
Dan
Okay.
00;31;39;20 - 00;31;55;11
Raghu
So there's a so every reel that they showed until then. Until then was like just two cars bumping into each other at the stop sign. Like perpendicularly, right?
00;31;55;27 - 00;31;56;15
Dan
Yeah.
00;31;56;15 - 00;31;57;26
Raghu
So some guy.
00;31;58;06 - 00;31;58;20
Dan
India.
00;31;59;05 - 00;32;09;27
Raghu
No, no, this is some all the different countries. Okay, first reel was USA. So the guy was it stop sign and then he was going. But the other guy Mr. Stops and they hit the car.
00;32;09;27 - 00;32;10;06
Dan
Yeah.
00;32;10;18 - 00;32;29;20
Raghu
It was just a bump to bump and then they went outside and then the next one was in Canada. It rammed into a bit and then the other one was in Europe. The guy hit the other guy super hard and then they went off the road. And then in India. So there is traffic sense and everything.
00;32;29;20 - 00;32;30;01
Dan
Sure.
00;32;30;14 - 00;32;55;22
Raghu
But you see people coming in, going out, no action, nothing happening, everything, you know, everyone is going at the same time. It's it's chaos, but it's organized chaos like everyone knows. Like there'll be some other guy beside you or behind you. So you don't you shouldn't be hitting them. And they you just need to keep going. The main goal is not to hit anyone and then go.
00;32;56;22 - 00;32;58;27
Raghu
And that felt pretty funny.
00;32;59;20 - 00;33;22;19
Dan
So, oh, they're trying to compare to India. They better see I could no, I believe it because I know there's many Asian countries that are like that. They have all these lights and stuff. Sometimes they'll be the light, sometimes, yeah, they'll be at a sign or traffic circle or whatever. And they yeah. The rule of thumb is that you go the flow of traffic.
00;33;22;19 - 00;33;44;01
Dan
So if some chicken goes across the road, you see it, you make you better be sure that chicken doesn't stop. Yeah, it does is dead. You know, that's what I learned in some countries I've been to like you just gotta keep walking. They see you. Yeah. That's a they're trained. They're trained to see each other. That's what they that's why in India they it's loud, right.
00;33;44;01 - 00;34;01;17
Dan
Everybody's honking their horns. Yeah. It's not for in like here. Right. You hear a horn honk, you get mad like what? Yeah. Who did this to me? You look around, you start pointed at people. It was you. You. Then you realize that there's someone way down there, like. So you go from, like, 0 to 100 real quick. What?
00;34;01;18 - 00;34;19;00
Dan
Someone honking and realized it wasn't a you big. Okay, we're good. Yeah, but you hear that you're mad. It doesn't matter who it is to say is honking to your neighbor, you get mad for them. Then you realize, Oh, it's not me, okay. Yeah, go on. Go on with your day. Yeah. Are you in India or whatever? Right.
00;34;20;06 - 00;34;23;22
Dan
They're more like honking. Hey, I'm here. Just let you know I'm here.
00;34;23;27 - 00;34;31;04
Raghu
Yeah, it's like. Yeah, communication, right? Yeah. You honk once. Okay, I'm here. You honk place. Okay. I want to go.
00;34;31;15 - 00;34;31;25
Dan
Is it.
00;34;32;11 - 00;34;33;27
Raghu
Did not. Not really did it.
00;34;33;29 - 00;34;34;18
Dan
Did you. Did it.
00;34;34;25 - 00;34;37;19
Raghu
Yeah, but they're honking continuously. That means they want to go.
00;34;37;25 - 00;34;39;27
Dan
But what. How do you know when it's a mad honk?
00;34;40;25 - 00;34;46;18
Raghu
Mad honk is mad honk. Like when they keep honking and then it's continuous. Then to mad honk.
00;34;46;27 - 00;34;56;03
Dan
Ran honk was that like me, me, me, yeah, me. Like when it's like is that beep, beep, beep. But more like you hold it on.
00;34;56;21 - 00;35;03;25
Raghu
No, you hold it on and you pass and you hold it on again. Sometimes you can read words in the honks.
00;35;04;23 - 00;35;24;28
Dan
You motherfucker. What would you say? What's the Indian word for that? I don't know. Like what? Like, like, how would you curse? Like when you see like that and they say in English, they'll be like, well, what would you say? Like, like, you know, we said, Hey, you motherfucker, but you get the hell out of here. I don't know.
00;35;24;29 - 00;35;27;24
Dan
I'm going to stab you. You know, something extreme like that.
00;35;27;29 - 00;35;37;10
Raghu
I know, but I'm not getting it right away. I haven't used this in a while. Yeah, right. No, I just say like, fuck it, this guy.
00;35;37;23 - 00;35;38;28
Dan
No, that's English.
00;35;39;02 - 00;35;40;23
Raghu
No, I know, but that's what I say. No.
00;35;41;05 - 00;35;48;17
Dan
No, I know. But like, I know there's these weird terms. Like, there's some countries. Hey, go, monkeys. Goat, cow, piss.
00;35;49;11 - 00;35;51;17
Raghu
No, it depends on the person.
00;35;51;18 - 00;36;13;29
Dan
Like there's some countries that don't actually have words like shit. They don't have words like that. They don't like. Um, I think Vietnam was like a no mama is like motherfucker, you motherfucker. But just like, it's, I don't know, there's like, it's like the they don't actually have words, curse words. So sometimes they even got proper curse words.
00;36;13;29 - 00;36;14;05
Dan
Yeah.
00;36;14;18 - 00;36;15;14
Raghu
So that's what I'm saying.
00;36;15;15 - 00;36;39;27
Dan
So they have to say a long sentence like you stupid monkey, goat eating shit, you know, something like that. Or like, go eat a nest. Hey, you, you, you go legged freak animal pissing horned shit. Like, what the hell are you saying? I don't know what you're saying, but, like, I'm mad because you. You offended me in, like, 20 different ways, right?
00;36;39;27 - 00;36;40;16
Dan
No. Mm hmm.
00;36;42;11 - 00;36;47;03
Raghu
Yeah. I don't know. Like, if I know the right. Yeah, right for.
00;36;48;00 - 00;36;48;25
Dan
You, monkey, but.
00;36;49;18 - 00;36;50;19
Raghu
No, you and say that.
00;36;51;13 - 00;37;12;17
Dan
You hairless monkey. But no, like my parents would say, you bonehead. And like, I got nothing going on, you stupid bonehead, you insult me twice in the same sentence. If they say, Hey, you're bonehead, like, Oh, okay, that kind of hurts.
00;37;13;09 - 00;37;29;00
Raghu
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's funny, like, I don't know, like, yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, somewhere people know, like, you need to watch out for everyone. And here we take it for granted when we are driving. It is tops. And like, it's my side. It's my right off way.
00;37;29;04 - 00;37;31;23
Dan
Yeah, yeah. Well, yeah. Well, that's, I'm.
00;37;31;23 - 00;37;42;19
Raghu
Not saying the process here is wrong or the process there is right or the process that is wrong. And the process here is right. It's just how it works for different people now.
00;37;42;19 - 00;37;56;17
Dan
Okay. So with the idea of like, you know, traffic sure can be very good, but there's a lot of people. Mhm. So there's, I'm guessing with every like hundreds of thousand things of going correct there's going to be one bad thing that doesn't go correct.
00;37;57;18 - 00;38;00;27
Raghu
Yeah. There are stuff that which doesn't end up right all the time but.
00;38;01;18 - 00;38;33;24
Dan
So for instance I have an Indian friend, he visited India like this is like ten years ago, whatever, eight. He was more of like a kid and he was cousin's cousin. Well off, whatever it is, right. You're going on the street then what? One culture like besides everybody being Indian. He had one huge culture shock that he actually saw a dead person on the road, not sleeping, but just like dead.
00;38;33;24 - 00;38;34;10
Raghu
Okay?
00;38;34;10 - 00;38;40;08
Dan
And he has his cousins with the houses and these like, oh, get used to it. Does accidents happen all the time?
00;38;41;06 - 00;38;44;11
Raghu
Oh, okay. That's what you mean.
00;38;44;14 - 00;38;54;12
Dan
Yeah, like. Yeah, like accidents happen all the time. Yeah, he's. This guy stopped. You don't stop him. Like this guy stopped on the road. You never stop on the road.
00;38;54;19 - 00;39;00;08
Raghu
Accident happen. Everyone stops. I don't know, like, maybe, uh, where your cousin is.
00;39;00;25 - 00;39;02;08
Dan
Well, no, I. It he's got.
00;39;02;17 - 00;39;11;18
Raghu
Yeah, but yeah, when accident happens, like it seems here like when you see a cop car, everyone slows down and accidents happen, everyone stops.
00;39;11;18 - 00;39;13;00
Dan
Okay, so things have changed a little bit.
00;39;13;09 - 00;39;14;20
Raghu
No, it's been all.
00;39;15;13 - 00;39;15;27
Dan
Oh.
00;39;16;11 - 00;39;33;27
Raghu
But as soon as someone comes, they're like, What do you say police or someone comes? They're right. Yeah. So they, they figured out the case and then they move the body aside. They might be waiting for an ambulance or anything to get the body in. So they just let the traffic go because.
00;39;34;12 - 00;39;50;08
Dan
Well, no, obviously. Right. Got to keep going. Yeah. But like, say, this is in the morning, like, is it dead in the morning or dead at night? Is ever dead? It's yeah. It's like, you know, like it's not hundreds of thousand people. It's like more like a couple hundred.
00;39;50;24 - 00;39;53;21
Raghu
Yeah, it's kind of dead in the late night.
00;39;54;01 - 00;40;01;02
Dan
So what if that happened and during that time and like, yeah, they stayed until tomorrow morning.
00;40;01;21 - 00;40;03;02
Raghu
How? They know, like, it's dead.
00;40;03;16 - 00;40;08;01
Dan
Well, that's what he said. I don't know. I'm just saying, like, get drunk.
00;40;08;01 - 00;40;09;28
Raghu
I just laying it on, he said.
00;40;10;16 - 00;40;30;26
Dan
Or maybe they starved, right? Maybe it was an accident. Maybe it was just a person who starved. Mm hmm. Okay, maybe. Maybe I'm going to make off real tangent trying to hoop or. But maybe was an accident. But he saw a person that was not conscious on the side of road. Yeah. And he just stopped and drove on.
00;40;30;26 - 00;40;37;10
Dan
So maybe he's on accident. Yeah, I'm saying it maybe because it's next to the road, but, you know, probably wrong.
00;40;39;06 - 00;40;43;15
Raghu
Yeah. You never know. Like what the really crazy is like unless and until you're out there.
00;40;43;20 - 00;40;43;28
Dan
Mm hmm.
00;40;44;19 - 00;40;48;22
Raghu
So what would you do? Like, if you see a homeless guy just lying on the road here?
00;40;50;01 - 00;40;50;27
Dan
I'd go right by.
00;40;51;27 - 00;40;54;12
Raghu
How do you know? Like if he's dead or he's just sleeping?
00;40;54;12 - 00;40;54;27
Dan
I don't know.
00;40;55;25 - 00;40;56;20
Raghu
Same thing, right?
00;40;57;11 - 00;40;57;23
Dan
Okay.
00;40;59;05 - 00;41;13;29
Raghu
Like you're just by and unless and until you stop or wake him up or shook him and you don't know. Like, I would never. Yeah. So what if it's supply? You stop and they tried to steal.
00;41;14;16 - 00;41;19;21
Dan
Oh there are. I've seen videos like that. Yeah. It's actually one look that he.
00;41;20;09 - 00;41;49;11
Raghu
Said to like this isn't us. There's a road like my friend used to work in a gas station at night. It's like a pretty shitty area, like very crime oriented area. So he used to tell the stories over there. So the they will throw rocks at you while you're driving the car and you try to, uh, what do you say you try to turn on your wipers, right?
00;41;49;11 - 00;41;53;23
Raghu
And then it just gets more messy. You stop your cart to the side of the road.
00;41;55;02 - 00;41;56;07
Dan
Because they did something right.
00;41;56;10 - 00;41;59;28
Raghu
No, no, they to exit your car. Oh, okay. Yeah. On your windshield.
00;41;59;28 - 00;42;01;10
Dan
And you can't wipe it off. Yeah.
00;42;02;01 - 00;42;06;12
Raghu
And then it gets messy. ASP.NET Like, the first thing you do is, like, turn on the wipers.
00;42;06;21 - 00;42;08;18
Dan
On your underwater thing. Yeah.
00;42;08;19 - 00;42;29;22
Raghu
And then it just gets more messy. Yeah. So what you do, you just stop on the road to the side and then try to clean it up. Next thing you get drunk. Oh, that's why I went to them. That was story like, which it all one of the guys caught it. But yeah, there were like different stories at that place.
00;42;30;06 - 00;42;34;16
Raghu
Like, you go there at night, you can hear like gunshots going around.
00;42;34;16 - 00;42;48;28
Dan
It's kind of weird, though, because not to say that people like. Well, like homelessness. Hmm. I don't think homelessness can be solved the way that, like, you can't just throw money at it. No. Solve the problem.
00;42;49;14 - 00;42;49;23
Raghu
Yeah.
00;42;50;07 - 00;43;19;01
Dan
Because once you're given money like, say, like you're a social worker and you're given to millions of dollars for your department to kind of work on this. Hmm. Well, what's incentive? What's a bigger incentive? You keeping your job or solving a problem? If you solve this problem, the budget that you had goes away. They're only going to give you the same amount if to solve this problem.
00;43;19;24 - 00;43;23;12
Dan
But if you solve the problem, you won't get a budget no more.
00;43;23;12 - 00;43;23;24
Raghu
Okay.
00;43;24;06 - 00;43;24;26
Dan
What do you do?
00;43;25;14 - 00;43;51;06
Raghu
So homelessness, right? There are two ways people become homeless, one by choice. One, they get forced into it. It might be maybe not Monday related, maybe, uh, there's some psychological stuff going on. Or it might be just by choice, like they just don't want to work anymore. That is, they just got so fed up with the government. They don't want to pay taxes.
00;43;51;06 - 00;43;58;04
Raghu
They don't want to like just live as the other people come and they just want to do their own thing. So they just become homeless.
00;43;58;13 - 00;43;58;22
Dan
Right?
00;43;59;14 - 00;44;19;15
Raghu
So the people who are forced into homelessness, if you help them to get there, get back on their feet, they will get back and then they'll be okay. But the people who went to homeless by their choice, they never want to come back into the world and live live like everyone else. They just want to live like that.
00;44;19;15 - 00;44;23;00
Raghu
So, so, so it's never going to go back.
00;44;23;00 - 00;44;27;12
Dan
So those people, should you help those people? How do you know? But you don't know who they are.
00;44;28;16 - 00;44;53;27
Raghu
Like how they know like. And most homeless people I haven't, at least in Calgary, have seen like they just don't care. They don't even ask for your help. Most people have seen like there are some people who panhandle set lights and stuff, but yeah, most people, they just do their own stuff, do their own thing. They don't bother you?
00;44;55;08 - 00;44;55;28
Dan
Yeah, I don't know.
00;44;56;12 - 00;45;25;20
Raghu
Yeah. So with the clothing thing, right. Government is giving unemployment to many people. Sure. So most people who do or not. Most people, but some people who do like the small jobs. Right. Uh, what do you say? Like in service industry, like the hair cutting and stuff? Uh, this is from one of my friend here, so she manages a barber shop, and then most people are not going into work anymore.
00;45;26;03 - 00;45;26;15
Dan
Right?
00;45;26;23 - 00;45;36;26
Raghu
Because they're getting paid more at EEI or an unemployment benefit than what they make at the shop. So they're like, we just stay.
00;45;36;26 - 00;45;40;04
Dan
Home. Her shop, their job.
00;45;40;04 - 00;45;41;00
Raghu
She doesn't do it.
00;45;41;01 - 00;45;46;02
Dan
Okay, right? I said, Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I have a good idea who you're talking about, but. Okay, yeah.
00;45;46;20 - 00;45;55;18
Raghu
So what do you see? Like government. So how do you see this? Do you see this as government helping people or government making them lazy?
00;45;57;08 - 00;46;20;19
Dan
Yeah, that's that's a very tricky role, I think, because I, I do believe in the system and then I don't at the same time. Mm hmm. Because it's like an instance of, I might say a good instance, like, this is an extreme say you're from a wealthy family, you could give your kids. You give your kids all the money in the world.
00;46;20;27 - 00;46;35;02
Dan
Mm hmm. You don't need to work a single day in your life until you have to. Yeah. Parents, right? No money. That kid has grown up for 25 years underneath parent's money. What do you do?
00;46;35;02 - 00;46;39;06
Raghu
You got to go out and work and make something for himself.
00;46;39;12 - 00;47;00;21
Dan
But why? Because his parents, like, maybe his parents might say, we can money, but we're cutting you off. Say, Well, you can't cut me off because you've given me all this time. Why should I even work? Why should I do this? The thing is that it's I don't know. I don't know where I'm going with that, but it's just like I do think that people need to have hardships and they need to earn things.
00;47;01;02 - 00;47;01;11
Raghu
Yeah.
00;47;01;27 - 00;47;17;02
Dan
Like I do believe, like, you know, be nice. You get $1,000 to your bank account and then you can spend whatever you want at the same time, should you, which like. I think there should be an incentive where that goes to.
00;47;17;22 - 00;47;43;07
Raghu
Yeah. Yeah. Like the same thing with kids too. Like I have or like government gives or not heard, but government gives money if you have kids, right. And if you are low income. So I was talking to this about, uh, with a colleague at work. So one of their friends, friend or someone. So they have like four or five right now.
00;47;43;15 - 00;47;43;24
Dan
Mm hmm.
00;47;44;13 - 00;47;49;29
Raghu
So they get like, I think maybe 500 for every kid. So that's.
00;47;49;29 - 00;47;50;19
Dan
Not much.
00;47;51;04 - 00;47;56;04
Raghu
Not much, but it it's it's good enough money for.
00;47;56;07 - 00;47;57;08
Dan
2500 bucks.
00;47;58;02 - 00;48;01;02
Raghu
Yeah. They could run the home, not do any work.
00;48;01;04 - 00;48;01;29
Dan
Mm.
00;48;01;29 - 00;48;20;22
Raghu
So yeah. Like she was talking to her and then she or. Yes. She was saying like so as soon as one of the kid gets out of the age, I don't know like what the age limit is. So as soon as you get out of the age they have another kid coming up to get the money.
00;48;21;02 - 00;48;22;19
Dan
Mm.
00;48;22;19 - 00;48;24;21
Raghu
So what's this.
00;48;25;28 - 00;48;47;11
Dan
Yeah. No I've k that's yeah. Sure people are, they're always going to be abusers. Yeah. And those always outshine the people who are trying to do the right thing. Mm hmm. But then again, like, sure, if the government wants, I'm like, that's is still hard to raise a kid. It should be.
00;48;47;11 - 00;48;48;17
Raghu
I do think it should be hard to.
00;48;48;17 - 00;48;52;25
Dan
Raise as well, because if it was easy, then everybody would have a kid.
00;48;53;28 - 00;48;54;28
Raghu
You don't think it's easy?
00;48;55;12 - 00;49;08;27
Dan
I think it's I think people just because you have to like I just think is hard. You got to accept the fact that you can't go play video games no more. You can't go like to be a decent parent, like to know if you want to have it easy, be a shitty parent.
00;49;10;17 - 00;49;12;22
Raghu
So not playing video game is hard.
00;49;14;16 - 00;49;32;14
Dan
No, I mean, like you do the things that you want to do for your own time. When you have a child, your time people don't understand. But like your time is more valuable than anything in the world. Yeah, it's like working for a job. You're trading your time and doing something for that money. You're trading your time for it.
00;49;32;17 - 00;49;54;27
Dan
Yeah, but when you have a kid, you have given that like to be like supposing the books in the books to be a good parent, you got to sacrifice a lot of that time to raise a child. Yeah. So you're like, use all the extra time that you thought you didn't have. You really don't have now. Mm hmm.
00;49;54;27 - 00;50;16;07
Dan
And then it just gets focused on to this now. It could be enjoyable. I got a few guys at work. He talks about his kids nonstop. I'm like, That's awesome. Makes me kind of like, think like, maybe family life is a good thing. Um, then have others, like, my, my kid's old. He's 26. I don't know what to do with him.
00;50;16;07 - 00;50;20;02
Raghu
He should never bother about his kid when he's 26. He need to do something.
00;50;20;04 - 00;50;45;22
Dan
No, but, Donald, see that? That's you interjecting on things, right? But I'm going with, like, I don't know, dude, do something. Do something about that. Yeah, stuff like that. I don't know, man. The government. Okay, so back to work called. Why should I go back to work when the government is raping me more? I say that's kind of messed up because there's no way the government be able to pay you more than what, minimum wages?
00;50;45;29 - 00;51;13;13
Dan
Yeah, after we get minimum wage. So, like, I don't know what you're giving right now, but the thing is that everybody who stops working are short sighted. They're too shortsighted, meaning that they're they're complaining that they're living paycheck to paycheck, but they're not doing anything to not live paycheck to paycheck. Yeah. What the hell is that?
00;51;13;13 - 00;51;35;04
Raghu
I mean, think about it. You have free health care, you got money to live. Sure. Which basically means the government is giving you food and government is giving you free health care. So you don't need to work. You don't need to save anything for your health.
00;51;35;04 - 00;52;05;06
Dan
Yeah, but like you're okay. Sure. But then you look at in a light, like, you can't complain. You've this is what we go back to earlier we're talking about you got to accept the things that you've done. If you don't want to work, then don't expect someone's going to give you a Lamborghini. You know, uh, or like, don't it's, don't stop working and expect the person at your former company to start paying you more money.
00;52;05;24 - 00;52;29;27
Dan
Yeah, like, what is that now? Do I believe that people deserve more money per hour? Of course I do. Yeah. I don't think anybody should live paycheck to paycheck. The fact is, some people just want to live paycheck to paycheck. Mm. They want to overindulge. They want to spend their $2,000 and run it down to zero. Then they know they have no to refill $2,000.
00;52;29;27 - 00;52;47;16
Dan
Why should they save if is always comes? Yeah they don't like. Some people are just shortsighted that way. So the government is giving them $2,000. Mm. That's. Oh I don't know if that's a lot. That's a lot in one lump sum but over a month.
00;52;48;17 - 00;52;49;26
Raghu
So think about this.
00;52;49;26 - 00;52;51;08
Dan
Rent is like a thousand bucks already.
00;52;51;12 - 00;52;55;24
Raghu
Yeah. But people move back to their parents. They live with their parents for a bit.
00;52;56;09 - 00;52;57;15
Dan
Okay. For how long?
00;52;57;27 - 00;53;07;06
Raghu
I don't know. I've seen people living with their parents for so long. Sure. You said someone at your work, their kid is 26.
00;53;07;10 - 00;53;07;19
Dan
Yeah.
00;53;09;03 - 00;53;13;03
Raghu
And he don't know what to do with his kid. I don't know if he's staying with the family or not.
00;53;13;12 - 00;53;15;24
Dan
Well, regardless, I don't judge people who stay with their parents.
00;53;16;01 - 00;53;29;14
Raghu
You know, I. I don't judge people like who stay with their parents. I'm just saying, like, it can be anything that, like, you might be working, but your parents might be sick and they need money. So you're staying with them and then helping them? Yeah.
00;53;29;14 - 00;53;29;28
Dan
You don't know?
00;53;30;03 - 00;53;45;00
Raghu
Yeah, no, I'm just not saying that. I'm just saying like, yeah, people tend to move back or I feel like with the current generation, they just look back to their parents and okay, we are in trouble. We're just coming back home.
00;53;45;14 - 00;53;58;29
Dan
Sure. That's a good it's a good safety net. Yeah. But then okay, I don't I don't like to talk about it too much, but honestly, like this anti work stuff is gonna shoot them in the foot.
00;53;59;05 - 00;54;18;24
Raghu
Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like it. You're not just, uh, it's not the government thing. I think government is helping you out. It's. It's the people who are just getting money. Shouldn't need to work, right? Government is not going to pay for.
00;54;18;27 - 00;54;22;26
Dan
Won't truthfully work sucks.
00;54;22;26 - 00;54;24;01
Raghu
Then you need to change your job.
00;54;24;01 - 00;54;51;21
Dan
No, no. Work sucks. Not because it's a shitty job. You just know you got to sacrifice your time that you don't want to do to earn money. That but everybody works. Yeah, but you still got to accept the fact. Like you're giving up at least 8 hours, average person a day, 40 hours a week. More than just one third of a week is just given away.
00;54;52;11 - 00;55;15;25
Dan
Yeah. Just because you want to get paid. So that just just that definition, it sucks because you got to, you are forced to give up your time for you to want to live your other part of your life like that. It's just by definition like you have to like you can do whatever you want. You can't just go down the street and just do wherever you want.
00;55;16;02 - 00;55;16;23
Raghu
You can do it.
00;55;17;01 - 00;55;18;21
Dan
And have the luxuries that you have.
00;55;19;00 - 00;55;19;12
Raghu
Okay?
00;55;19;27 - 00;55;45;10
Dan
Because work is like. But that's your sacrifice. You're working for luxuries. Hmm. Now, just by that, like, don't you like every wish they win the lottery and then that that goes away now that's awesome. Not the thing, though. Some people have it, others don't. Yeah, but that's I'm not I'm not saying I'm anti work I, I want to earn my money.
00;55;46;13 - 00;56;04;08
Dan
I'm an earner. Yeah. Like if I, if I have a lot of things that work, I try to find something to do because like, I promise this company 8 hours, I'm going to try to earn those 8 hours or my day's going to be super long. So it's more like a selfish kind of thing to be busy.
00;56;04;08 - 00;56;24;00
Raghu
Yeah. I mean, when you get into work, you're agreeing to it, right? I know like some people, they don't pay enough, uh, or the problem is like with the expectation, uh, uh, where's the limit?
00;56;24;27 - 00;56;25;15
Dan
There's no limit.
00;56;25;27 - 00;56;32;20
Raghu
Yeah. So if we get $20 an hour, you'll ask. I wish I get $30.
00;56;32;20 - 00;56;34;03
Dan
Yeah, you're know, 30.
00;56;34;14 - 00;56;35;19
Raghu
You wish you get 40.
00;56;35;19 - 00;56;58;26
Dan
So there's no limit. Yeah. What does that really mean? You don't want to work, you don't care how much money you get. The more money you get, the more money you want to spend. You're the medium way of that you're living is always gonna stay the same. Yeah. So if you make $30,000 an hour, you're going to probably budget your whole year or like your whole life.
00;56;58;26 - 00;57;15;24
Dan
Currently right now off $30,000. Mm hmm. And you're going to spend every bit of it or save whatever. But like, you're always going to budget out if you do it, you know, if you're decent. Yeah. If you make $40,000, you're going to just, like, eat out today. Mm hmm. I could do this today. Sweet. Because I got to extra income.
00;57;16;27 - 00;57;40;00
Dan
Yeah, $50,000. Oh, I can eat twice now. And then the car goes into a vicious cycle. Like you're always going to be living within your budget that you your new budget that you came up with. Yeah. And that's why I also think salary is a terrible thing when it comes to debt because Saifi signed like a $80,000 contract.
00;57;40;25 - 00;57;48;19
Dan
You know, this year you're guaranteed $80,000. It's guarantee, but not guaranteed. You just know.
00;57;49;03 - 00;57;49;09
Raghu
You.
00;57;49;15 - 00;57;51;08
Dan
Yeah. Or whatever. Right.
00;57;51;15 - 00;57;52;05
Raghu
Or yeah.
00;57;52;26 - 00;58;09;17
Dan
Like you're going to live to that budget that they have given you now they give you $80,000. You know what? I could you know, I could buy that Lexus. I could buy this lease. Is a thousand bucks sweet a month or whatever. 80 grand. There's mortgage.
00;58;09;17 - 00;58;12;16
Raghu
You think about it that way. All you can think about the mortgage.
00;58;12;24 - 00;58;36;02
Dan
Okay, no mortgage. So nobody. Okay, so use thousand dollars, split it up to 12 months. So that's $12,000 for me. Oh, I had nothing mortgage. Now this is 1200 dollars, so now you're spending 20 $200. So that's about 12 hours. So it's about 24, 28 and $26,000. So now you have $40,000. Remember, if you have taxes on all that money.
00;58;36;09 - 00;58;58;14
Dan
Yeah, 80 grand. So you're probably getting like 64 or 70 something like that, right? So your mind is working 80 grand, but in reality, you should be working at 665 grand. But you've knocked out one third on your car and on your house because you just spent 25 grand. Yeah. In the end, you know, just those two things.
00;58;59;02 - 00;59;23;23
Dan
Okay, well, let's think about how much to our food I want to spend a month. You know, what's a good a good luxurious amount, a thousand bucks, thousand dollars of food that's you're eating very good steak every other day $50 meals, whatever. Right? So that's now, what, $3,000. So 3000. So that's 30. So so you spend about half your budget, you still got a lot of money left.
00;59;23;23 - 00;59;46;13
Dan
So you know what? I want to buy a new TV. I want to buy their couch as five grand as three grand as a four grand? Mm hmm. All of a sudden, you have 2000. $3,000 in savings. 4000? That's a lot in savings, so. Well, you got to tell yourself, look what I got away with the first year I got this money.
00;59;46;28 - 01;00;12;06
Dan
How much can I push this? So I want that 4000. You know what is go on vacation. Perfect. So now that like you're going to live to the most, people will live to the salary that's been promised, quote unquote, always, unless you're good at saving. But then people that why are you saving you can't use it when you're dead sick.
01;00;12;06 - 01;00;38;08
Dan
Well, this is an emergency money, you know, stuff like that. But like every time you go up another bracket, you're always going to live towards that bracket. Mm. And I don't believe hourly is good either because you know it kind of sucks. You miss a day, you miss that time, right? So if anything encourages you to stay longer, stay there and just work.
01;00;38;08 - 01;00;45;23
Dan
Yeah, a little give and take. But in the end I still stick with I say work kind of sucks, you know, you need to trade your time.
01;00;45;23 - 01;01;07;13
Raghu
Okay, so coming back to work kind of sucks and win the lottery and then don't work anymore, right? Okay. Uh, if you, if you look up like how many people who, what lottery and then how many people got bankrupt after one or two years after getting lottery? Yeah, I think are 90% or 94% of the people got bankrupt.
01;01;07;13 - 01;01;09;05
Raghu
Sure. As soon as they got lottery.
01;01;09;26 - 01;01;13;22
Dan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So now why. No. Why?
01;01;14;06 - 01;01;16;12
Raghu
Because they just go out and spend everything.
01;01;17;00 - 01;01;41;28
Dan
I think what it is like, they don't understand the value of what they if they want. They woke up with $3 million, 10 million, $20 million. They don't actually understand what that money means. Like, you got to understand what that meant for me. I look at money as time. Okay? So anything I purchase, I think about how much time that was to me.
01;01;42;17 - 01;01;49;03
Dan
So if I go to McDonald's or whatever, okay, I just spent about, you know, 10 minutes people.
01;01;49;06 - 01;01;53;08
Raghu
I don't think McDonald's maybe somewhere else, but I don't think you think when you go to McDonald's.
01;01;53;08 - 01;01;54;13
Dan
I think I want to go to McDonald's.
01;01;56;05 - 01;01;57;07
Raghu
When you get that Slurpee.
01;01;57;13 - 01;02;19;03
Dan
Yeah, everything I do, man, everything I do goes down at a time, like, say, look, all my equipment right here, right? I think about how long did it take me to get this equipment, say, well, didn't take me long. Yeah, but I think about it, how she'd like it. But then again, maybe I didn't want to purchase it right now because I think about like that was a shitty week.
01;02;19;09 - 01;02;34;04
Dan
Mm hmm. I did this many hours. 40 hours? What a shitty week that was. I don't think I want to buy my stuff because it was a shitty week. But if you have like a good week, they went by so quickly, you know that you're in a weekend again. I'm more like, Are you going to spend that money?
01;02;35;20 - 01;02;51;00
Dan
If I was living week to week, right? If I had a week paycheck and like the week went by like from Saturday to Saturday as like man, now we going by so fast, I'm going to spend this like has nothing, right? Like, you're just like the time that like it just just load. You have less care for the money.
01;02;51;11 - 01;03;22;11
Dan
Both It really should be like every single like you're accounting every hour like today. Oh, well, yeah. So you're you're in countless times and you just I just think about it like, I'm not going to spend anything. I cannot afford to do another shitty week. And no, I'm going to spend in less than a second. I don't know.
01;03;22;11 - 01;03;48;12
Dan
That's how I think psychologically. But then, you know, whatever. But then her friends are making, like, 80, 90 grand. Mm hmm. But then you find out they're working 12 hours a day, like, ooh, Jake's too. I don't know if I want that lifestyle, but their weekends seem very fun. Or they could go on vacations all the time, but they're working 12 hours a day.
01;03;48;12 - 01;03;51;29
Dan
How's that?
01;03;51;29 - 01;03;52;15
Raghu
I don't know.
01;03;52;24 - 01;03;53;07
Dan
Yeah.
01;03;53;07 - 01;04;02;06
Raghu
So if you get, like, a lot of vacation, say some people just work for days and then they just get every Friday off.
01;04;02;12 - 01;04;07;21
Dan
Yeah, I know a lot of people like that. They work like 12 hour days. Well.
01;04;08;07 - 01;04;09;27
Raghu
They get like three day weekends, three.
01;04;09;27 - 01;04;17;10
Dan
A weekend, though. I don't know. It's still though, it's just the fact that, like, you know, you're giving this time up.
01;04;17;19 - 01;04;17;29
Raghu
Yeah.
01;04;18;00 - 01;04;40;12
Dan
Like you you kind of like for me, ideally, I want to wake up, I want to go to say go to gym because when I find it's hard. Yeah, but I find it kind of at this point I find it fun. Like, I know it's all shitty. I know I'm going to suffer. I'm going to die. Yeah, but it's going to feel good after like I don't feel like I did so much in the day.
01;04;40;23 - 01;05;01;16
Dan
Doesn't matter. What I do now are very accomplished. Something in life ready for the day. Just For the day. Okay. So I could just be lazy if I wanted to. You. So then that that happens. But that's if I have a full day, then I go eat, then I go running. Then I can just search an internet. They can play video games.
01;05;01;26 - 01;05;15;29
Dan
I could go meet somebody, I go eat dinner. This is me like not working for a day. I do that every day, big man. That would be sweet. They could go back to the gym, you know, get another session. And I can work on different parts of my life. I want to see what type of athlete I can really be.
01;05;16;20 - 01;05;17;00
Raghu
Okay.
01;05;17;17 - 01;05;37;28
Dan
At least right now, I'm just thinking right now. But I can't do that if I sacrifice 8 hours more than that is more like 10 hours a day. You're mornings means sacrifice because you got to get ready. And what are you going home? You got to do wine and unwind or whatever I think goes on. So you sacrifice in ten, 10 to 12 hours a day.
01;05;38;26 - 01;05;43;04
Dan
So you only got like a window of 6 hours to do what you want because you got to sleep.
01;05;43;27 - 01;05;50;23
Raghu
Yeah. So you get 6 hours and then that 6 hours you need to cook to eat and do stuff.
01;05;50;27 - 01;05;52;13
Dan
Not much time. Yeah.
01;05;53;17 - 01;06;01;27
Raghu
So what do you prefer? Like 12 hour days and one day all to yourself? Like you can go running, you can go to the gym. You can.
01;06;02;12 - 01;06;24;01
Dan
I want to do anything I want. I'd rather just work one hour a day. If I had to work, get paid for, you know, a day's work than, you know. Mm. Big days. Whereas, you know. Yeah. Then do everyone anything see like your, say your house for instance. Right. Maybe you don't want to buy anything no more. Maybe you want to build everything.
01;06;24;26 - 01;06;29;05
Dan
Yep. But you want but you don't got the time so that say you're building couch right now.
01;06;29;17 - 01;06;30;13
Raghu
I go all the time.
01;06;30;21 - 01;06;56;10
Dan
No, no, I'm just lazy. Whatever. Right. Say you only work one hour, we'll get like you work. What? Like you have nothing else to do. Mm hmm. Okay, well, you don't need to work because you're good. You're. Did you quota for the day? Yeah. When our. You know, now I got the time to do everyone I could. I could not be build IKEA stuff like actually build it from the ground up.
01;06;56;17 - 01;07;11;27
Dan
Yeah. Get the wood, get the fabric and methodically pieces together. Cut it down and think it through. Mm hmm. I think they'll be ten times more rewarding than working and just picking a catalog. Oh, well, not for me as a builder.
01;07;12;16 - 01;07;16;07
Raghu
Like, every person is different. Like, that's what I'm going to say or.
01;07;16;11 - 01;07;20;11
Dan
What I'm not saying. Build a couch, Bob, just. And do whatever you want. Yeah.
01;07;22;02 - 01;07;42;20
Raghu
Yeah. Like some people. Like you think. Like some people think, okay, I need to do this. This class so much and so much. Should I do this or should I just outsource it and find another job and get more money? Mm hmm.
01;07;42;20 - 01;07;47;28
Dan
I know what you're saying. Yeah, but, yeah, sometimes people just don't want to do the task.
01;07;48;19 - 01;08;00;16
Raghu
Yep. Sometimes people are just lazy. Like, they're like, okay, I need to pay this much, and I'm paying this much more. Should I pay this or should I just do it myself?
01;08;00;21 - 01;08;28;18
Dan
See, you know how I said that? I look at everything as time. Yeah. I run into that as a big problem. Mm hmm. So you remember my sculpture? I'm still working on it. Look like I've broken, like, five different version of them already. I'm giving up almost. Yeah. Like it doesn't work. I had to build new wings. I know you don't know what I'm talking about, but I built five different version of this things, and this goddamned sculpture would not spin.
01;08;30;03 - 01;08;45;21
Dan
Okay, you don't know. You look at you like. I don't know, I, I because I don't want to share, okay? I'm just that sculpture I showed you from way back a year ago. I'm still working on it. It's been like a year and it's still not done.
01;08;45;21 - 01;08;46;05
Raghu
Okay.
01;08;47;08 - 01;09;09;00
Dan
So if I could buy that for cheaper. Mm hmm. That thing could be. Maybe axes would fit like I would if I was selling it 1500 bucks. Mm hmm. I guarantee you, I have about, like, 300 hours into it right now. Yeah, if I was at 300 hours. At $10 an hour, I'm really low. Mm. A three grand, not imminently material.
01;09;09;03 - 01;09;29;13
Dan
Mm hmm. If I include material. Well, every time I try to build this thing, it's about $400. So I'm literally throwing away $400 every time I do this. Yeah, well, not unless I recycle some things here and there, but still. Mm hmm. So if I really, really can't, I spend about five grand already. Like I just bought it for 1500 bucks.
01;09;30;25 - 01;09;39;18
Dan
Yeah. So that kind of messes with, like, my mind a little bit. I should just bought this, but the gratification. But it's different though. The gratification, like I'm learning, I have to get through it.
01;09;39;28 - 01;09;42;10
Raghu
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, everyone is different.
01;09;42;10 - 01;09;51;24
Dan
But I just spent five grand because remember my hours? Mm hmm. At $10 an hour. Friggin sucks. Yeah.
01;09;52;02 - 01;10;01;03
Raghu
But, yeah, it's like everyone wants to do something, like, for you building stuff like it.
01;10;01;04 - 01;10;01;15
Dan
Oh, yeah.
01;10;02;12 - 01;10;04;07
Raghu
But some people, they don't like building stuff.
01;10;04;07 - 01;10;23;15
Dan
I don't like building for other people, though. Yeah, it's kind of funny though. Hey, I like to build stuff. Hey, man, if you ask me to build you something, I'm like, See, I just take my tongues like, Oh, man, I want to do shit for you. Mm hmm. I'll tell you what. I like to be like a, Bob Brush.
01;10;23;15 - 01;10;46;25
Dan
I'll paint something and see if you buy it. If you don't buy it, then, well, that's too bad on you. Okay? I don't know. I don't know if that's even a good example, but like, I don't know, I'm that type of person. Like, I don't like to do anything for anybody. Like, when it comes to my artistry, if you want something you better, take it when I still have it, because I'm going to get let go away my stuff.
01;10;47;01 - 01;10;54;28
Dan
Mm hmm. But if he asked me to do anything, I'm going to probably say no. Probably. Hey, can you build me this table?
01;10;55;07 - 01;11;00;21
Raghu
Basically, we just need to trick you into doing it and then just take it instead of asking you directly.
01;11;00;27 - 01;11;05;03
Dan
No, but the thing is that that's if I get motivated to do it, it's kind of weird. All right.
01;11;05;23 - 01;11;13;09
Raghu
Sometimes people can trick you understand? Like, some people are good talkers. Like, they can really talk good. Oh, no. And make you do stuff.
01;11;13;20 - 01;11;19;23
Dan
Nova building. Like, out of my own crap. Yeah. Build a table, look a built a tape. It's like, oh, shit, whatever it is, you.
01;11;19;23 - 01;11;23;08
Raghu
Build a table and then you realize, like, you don't have the space for it.
01;11;23;13 - 01;11;24;13
Dan
It's like, oh, shit.
01;11;24;24 - 01;11;27;12
Raghu
Okay. You want a table? Yeah, I want it to.
01;11;27;19 - 01;11;28;17
Dan
Be $600.
01;11;29;07 - 01;11;34;03
Raghu
And then you realize all the time he's the guy who planted the idea he had.
01;11;34;24 - 01;11;54;04
Dan
And you be like, Oh, like you say, you want like a dining table. I need a dining table. Hey, man, you're Dying. Tim, I remember you were making this. Yeah. You want to buy it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. This asshole, this guy designed this shit. Convince me not. Okay, so I did build a table and I realized I don't like resin.
01;11;55;05 - 01;12;03;28
Dan
The texture of it. Yeah, like it's sticky all the time. Mm hmm. It doesn't matter what you do, you can shine it up, but stay sticky.
01;12;04;11 - 01;12;05;21
Raghu
Put a glass on top of it.
01;12;06;02 - 01;12;30;03
Dan
Yeah, but that loses your it loses that that feel like. Sure, I could put like, uh, the parks you over everything the wood and and over the poxy to to kind of create a layer. So be nice even. Yeah. But then when you touch it, you're like, Ooh, it's kind of squishy. I don't know. Have you ever have like, have you ever had a table like that?
01;12;30;23 - 01;12;31;21
Raghu
Like, I wasn't able to.
01;12;31;21 - 01;12;45;21
Dan
Know or like in, in the middle resin. Mm mm. No. So there's some people that try to cheat or like, oh you know, you live edge, they touch it is like, ooh, this is kind of sticky, weird.
01;12;45;21 - 01;12;46;01
Raghu
Yeah.
01;12;47;06 - 01;13;11;05
Dan
But like, okay, I've had and there's like, I don't like this. I like the feeling of just when it comes to wood, just nice oil stain, low shine. That's it. So you kind of feel the wood. Yeah. And like it still feels rough as like it's been treated but not resin on. It's not this weird like squishy. I don't maybe I'm just sensitive to a pleasure the good yet.
01;13;11;15 - 01;13;11;24
Raghu
That I.
01;13;12;06 - 01;13;16;25
Dan
See out sell those I think oh I don't like this he won't buy it yeah. Yeah.
01;13;17;04 - 01;13;22;10
Raghu
A guy just might buy it and then he just might put a glass top on it and it works for him.
01;13;22;24 - 01;13;41;21
Dan
No. Yeah. No, it's. Well, for me, it's just it's an old, I just do these things just because it don't ask me why is it. I don't know, man. I just. I just do these things for no reason, okay? There's a reason. I just. I want to be creative. I want to execute my idea and just do it.
01;13;42;25 - 01;13;48;01
Dan
But this goddamn sculpture. Oh, it was so awesome when it completes.
01;13;48;01 - 01;13;52;02
Raghu
But it might never complete.
01;13;52;09 - 01;13;52;29
Dan
Would you buy it?
01;13;54;05 - 01;13;56;13
Raghu
I don't know. Why would I want a sculpture?
01;13;56;29 - 01;14;06;02
Dan
Because it's awesome. So full price. I don't want it. Yeah, you said it.
01;14;06;18 - 01;14;07;24
Raghu
Said I don't want it.
01;14;08;01 - 01;14;22;01
Dan
You don't want art in your in your house. No it's a it's a it's a showstopper. It's okay. You look at that. You like people. People go to your house. No, you invite people. Hey, you want to come to my house? I got an awesome sculpture.
01;14;22;01 - 01;14;23;06
Raghu
If I don't invite anyone.
01;14;23;26 - 01;14;33;13
Dan
The ladies. Hey, ladies, want to come over, but you're not allowed in there. You're going to do. You're not allowed to come in. It's it's a no, no.
01;14;33;23 - 01;14;36;17
Raghu
No. It's not like that. It I don't know.
01;14;38;00 - 01;14;48;18
Dan
I what if you had something in your house that you actually had to show beside your bed? Hey, I want to show you something. It's not my bed.
01;14;48;18 - 01;14;53;00
Raghu
It's this the fireplace.
01;14;53;00 - 01;14;54;22
Dan
It's a very unique fireplace. Yeah.
01;14;55;08 - 01;14;56;15
Raghu
I had built it myself.
01;14;56;28 - 01;14;59;26
Dan
You had built it? Would you do? I touched it.
01;15;00;12 - 01;15;03;02
Raghu
Now. Yeah, kind of.
01;15;03;14 - 01;15;13;13
Dan
It touched it. Hand-built. Not by these hands. A built to myself, but not with these hands. Okay. Sure.
01;15;13;19 - 01;15;15;21
Raghu
It's hand built. Someone built it.
01;15;16;12 - 01;15;20;27
Dan
Yeah. And you could have. Okay, you can claim it. I built this, but not with these hands.
01;15;21;05 - 01;15;24;16
Raghu
And I'm not saying I build it just it's hand-built.
01;15;24;20 - 01;15;39;23
Dan
Oh, okay. Sure. You see, the you convince paddle if you had the sculpture. Yeah, you told me this thing if. If everything is completed, if it ever does, give another, like, three years. Mm hmm. I don't think.
01;15;39;23 - 01;15;42;19
Raghu
I would have this house for next three years, so.
01;15;42;28 - 01;15;43;17
Dan
We don't know.
01;15;43;29 - 01;15;46;25
Raghu
Yeah, you never know. What I'm saying is. Yeah.
01;15;47;20 - 01;16;02;24
Dan
But. Okay, so your apartment, whatever you like, dude, this thing takes up. I was like, So what's your problem? This is the fourth best sculpture in the world. They don't say that, but everything is a guess. Everything's the fourth best.
01;16;03;02 - 01;16;20;07
Raghu
Yeah, okay. I think. I think a bit weird when I say stuff, right? Uh, everyone or I don't know, some people buy stuff randomly, like they go shopping and they just bring it home because they just like it.
01;16;20;19 - 01;16;20;29
Dan
Mm hmm.
01;16;21;15 - 01;16;33;23
Raghu
So for me, if I see something, I'll be like, okay, I bring this home. How am I going to use it? I'm not going to use it. If I'm not going to use it, why am I buying it?
01;16;34;10 - 01;16;34;21
Dan
Mm hmm.
01;16;35;10 - 01;16;43;29
Raghu
And if I buy something that fit, I don't use it. And to clean it all the time. Yeah. To keep it in shape, even though I'm not using it.
01;16;44;21 - 01;16;48;23
Dan
Right. So you only buy things are useful. So you never buy a sculpture.
01;16;50;08 - 01;16;53;04
Raghu
And maybe not. Maybe I'll buy a painting.
01;16;53;04 - 01;16;54;29
Dan
So paint will come on.
01;16;55;20 - 01;16;56;29
Raghu
Not sculpture.
01;16;56;29 - 01;17;01;06
Dan
Well, what do you think? It's a sculpture. What was a sculpture to you?
01;17;02;11 - 01;17;04;14
Raghu
Sculpture will break if it falls down. Okay.
01;17;04;14 - 01;17;05;29
Dan
Well, you're thinking like a statue.
01;17;05;29 - 01;17;09;19
Raghu
You know, sculpture. They'll break too.
01;17;10;02 - 01;17;11;01
Dan
Well, if it's made of metal.
01;17;12;05 - 01;17;13;08
Raghu
Then we break my floor.
01;17;13;16 - 01;17;16;02
Dan
Yes. He doesn't break that thing, though.
01;17;16;02 - 01;17;17;29
Raghu
You know how hard it is to replace a floor.
01;17;19;05 - 01;17;24;05
Dan
Yeah, well, it's not a sculpture. Don't. Don't break it. The choices, man.
01;17;24;28 - 01;17;27;22
Raghu
What if it's fall down and break the floor?
01;17;28;09 - 01;17;51;13
Dan
You didn't do your job again the way you're supposed to dove underneath and just, like, take it. Like, what happened to rags is like, died. It will happen. He saves the sculpture and his floor. Okay, that's kind of weird. Yeah. I don't know why he chose that, but. Good job, man. Okay, well, that goes off to a tangent.
01;17;51;22 - 01;18;02;00
Dan
Well, but the fourth best we just want through absolute number two. Yeah, we here on the fourth best podcast. I think there's a good time to end it.
01;18;02;17 - 01;18;03;11
Raghu
I think so, too.
01;18;03;14 - 01;18;05;24
Dan
All right. All right. Thanks.
01;18;06;04 - 01;18;06;24
Raghu
Thanks, guys.
