I am currently in a lake house
0:02
with Lobow , so I am here
0:04
in the US . We've
0:06
been here for the past 19 days
0:09
, so I've been here for Christmas and
0:11
now until New Year as well . It's the first
0:13
time we've met in real life . You
0:15
know what ? It's probably a good idea that we actually do
0:17
a podcast together given that's
0:20
how we met . So
0:22
Cheers , Cheers indeed
0:24
100%
0:31
.
0:31
No , it's good , it's fun to pursue
0:33
this because it's honestly . That's
0:35
the whole premise of my
0:38
belief is that friendship matters
0:40
. That's literally my entire
0:43
concept . So we're friends , we're
0:45
hanging out , we're having a drink , we're on fire .
0:47
That's it .
0:48
That's all it is .
0:50
So the last podcast , at least on your channel , is
0:54
people talking about the stress of Christmas and
0:57
it's just a bunch of people hanging out anyway . But
1:00
it's quite nice the difference of the different podcasts
1:02
, like that for yours .
1:03
Because it fits it does
1:05
, Because I'm
1:07
not here to tell anyone how to do anything
1:10
or to say oh , by the way
1:12
, you have this and I can diagnose this
1:14
and I can tell you why this is happening . All
1:16
I do is just show up and tell you I
1:18
love you and let things out .
1:20
That's literally all it is . Yeah , I
1:22
mean for me it's different . I mean , this
1:24
type of podcast where I'm in
1:26
person is definitely
1:29
different . Well , it's happened once more , once
1:31
before .
1:32
My first one was with gu Barber .
1:35
Where we were on . You've done it a couple of
1:37
times , though haven't you ?
1:38
Twice Mark and Doc f
1:40
?
1:40
Yeah , and that's
1:43
so . The go checks those podcasts out . They are
1:45
in the playlist .
1:48
It's way more difficult because it's interaction
1:50
, instead of staring at a screen where
1:53
it Obviously you have all the technology
1:55
and all this kind of stuff . Now you actually have to
1:57
communicate with a human being . See
1:59
, that thing is no . That thing is no no , I think it's
2:01
a that doesn't bother
2:04
me as much .
2:05
It's genuinely . It's
2:07
a fact that I can't regulate the audio . It's
2:10
more about on a
2:13
face-to-face . On there , I
2:16
have far more control because I don't have , Because
2:18
we're not . Let's be honest anyone
2:20
watching this , this is being done , and any iPhone
2:22
number's out there . It's sort of Samsung right . This
2:25
is literally being recorded on a phone . So
2:27
and last time I did
2:29
it in person , it was recorded on a phone , was
2:31
yours done the same way , or was it Actually
2:34
?
2:34
the first one yes , the second one no ?
2:36
Okay , so you record your phone , you
2:38
record it again , okay , which
2:40
I can do . Yes , but it's a blessing
2:43
thing . It's
2:45
like we're not doing what a lot
2:47
of , because it's like you've got a lot of in-person
2:50
products out there , obviously that
2:52
spend , because it's the only thing they do
2:54
. Thousands and thousands on
2:56
shore mics and they
2:58
have everything there . I think it's more
3:01
difficult for me to that
3:03
can , which I spoke about all the time
3:05
on my podcast , and they have the control taken away
3:07
. So it's just like I have . I can upscale
3:10
some things , but some things I just
3:12
have to rely on that's how it was
3:14
and that kind of fishes me off , but
3:17
isn't that all mental health ? Oh control
3:19
.
3:19
Yes , certainly , Greg . It's all control
3:22
. The second to control is ripped away
3:24
in any slight way . We
3:26
flip the fuck out .
3:27
Yeah , that's why that is , no matter what issue
3:30
it is , oh yeah , and
3:32
that's a massive problem .
3:34
If you're in a relationship , if you have friends , if
3:37
they take away control for you , you're
3:39
like well , what the fuck just
3:41
?
3:41
Yeah , I'm not Because everything was going great
3:43
.
3:44
I was going . What was it before ? Right like .
3:47
This is the funny thing , because your big
3:49
thing with me a lot is that you know I have
3:51
the answers to questions and things like that . Yeah , but I have
3:54
to say this to you before Like I got told years
3:56
ago by someone I knew who's a
3:59
trans-sacrifice and
4:01
psychologist , that I was the biggest control
4:03
freak he's ever known . Right , because
4:06
when I get into a conversation , if I didn't know the answer , I'd
4:08
go away and learn it inside out or do
4:10
a qualification in it , right ? So that's why I end
4:12
up knowing things . It's probably because at some point
4:14
I knew fuck all about it . I was
4:16
like , no , I can't . No , no
4:18
, can't do that . It's like I
4:21
think what it is . It's a more extreme version of Joey's from Friends . There's
4:23
an episode of Friends
4:26
where Joey is Pendulette
4:29
, the magician . Pendulette is his
4:31
only cameo , I think , in Friends
4:33
and he comes in and is trying to sell him
4:35
in psychopedias and he talks
4:38
about the fact of like , have there been situations
4:40
when your friends are talking where you
4:42
haven't known what they're talking about , and it's like that's
4:44
what it is for me . It's like I didn't
4:47
know that that's never happening again
4:49
, right ?
4:52
That can be a good thing is
4:54
when you realize like I'm never going to let that happen again
4:56
.
4:56
I need to know this .
4:59
I think it's probably because of how much talk it's
5:01
is . It happens to me Clearly
5:03
what happened is ?
5:04
it happened to God damn much for me . When I was younger , when
5:06
I was a kid , I played
5:08
a big fuck .
5:09
all it's fun for me on this
5:11
podcast actually is to be in real
5:13
life Like
5:15
. This is the most relaxed I could be . When
5:18
you get me on a fucking Zoom call and I'm worried about
5:20
Wi-Fi and all this kind of shit , I'm panicking . I'm
5:22
doing all those things right now . I'm comfortable with
5:24
shit .
5:26
And this is why people think you're so much older than me .
5:28
We're basically the
5:30
same age by the way .
5:32
I know some of you are now putting your glasses on the check , but
5:35
I'm
5:37
a lot more weathered .
5:38
Okay , you can say that .
5:41
Clearly I was wearing moisturizer when I was on the streets . I don't
5:43
know what the fuck happened .
5:44
Oh Jesus , yeah , I mean I don't
5:47
know , I
5:50
just feel more .
5:51
But then I'm far more reclusive , right
5:54
. So I'm , and I
5:56
mean during the lockdown I
5:58
completely went online
6:00
. Yeah , so like immediately went online and
6:02
I suppose I caught myself all of that immediately
6:06
and I'd be doing computers since I
6:08
was like secondary school , right , so
6:11
I guess I just I could speed up to the
6:13
to that quicker . Yeah
6:15
, that's why I'm like , yeah , I can do this , Because
6:18
I was on , I was on calls from like dang it , I
6:21
mean as soon as it was comfortable .
6:22
it's comfortable to have that separation when
6:25
, if it's online , you're
6:27
not entirely obligated
6:30
to that scenario . So there's
6:32
no risk of you
6:35
know this person cares about me . I can't
6:37
you know I could upset
6:39
them . I could not upset
6:41
them . You know , if I make a
6:43
mistake I can apologize . They can accept
6:46
the apology . That online
6:48
there's a screen that separates you
6:50
. I think it's making it nice that I am
6:52
. I don't think I'll give a fuck . I think you're
6:54
the nicest fucking loving person I've ever met
6:56
.
6:59
Instead of earlier , when we don't diagnose delusion
7:01
, that's when . There's
7:04
disorders .
7:04
I'm sure some of you've been through . There's a certain
7:06
great point to this is when
7:09
you're separated by a screen . That
7:11
isn't real life . Until it is
7:13
real life , oh
7:15
I see , it's
7:18
just not a still real life thing ? Well
7:21
, it is , but until you actually
7:23
meet that person face to face , you
7:26
don't really know .
7:28
You do sound like someone's granddad now .
7:30
Because I think , hey , where's the border ? I'm a granddad
7:33
, okay .
7:35
Probably the right age for a granddad in Florida . I
7:39
think it's more about . So
7:42
for me , there's no difference to
7:44
me at all between in
7:48
real life and online , especially
7:51
after lockdown . I mean , there's people
7:53
who basically started relationships and
7:55
they have become married because of it . You
7:57
don't Right , but
7:59
it's a bit In the same way . If
8:02
you're going to use that as a qualifier , I'd say the same argument
8:04
can be had for people that are in a relationship but
8:06
they don't know until they live together . If
8:08
we use that qualifier , I'll agree with that , okay
8:10
.
8:11
So my point to that is you
8:13
do make a good point . It is real . However
8:16
, that's also like saying that you
8:18
know if you
8:21
get into a relationship online with
8:23
no woman or whoever your
8:25
preferred partner is and
8:27
all that it's not the same
8:29
as having sex in real life .
8:32
But then what if it's ? But
8:35
that's not what we're talking about .
8:36
Well , if you need someone in real life , it is way
8:38
different than seeing them on screen . That
8:41
is like . So , Pamela Anderson I was a huge fan
8:43
. Okay , Huge fan , I
8:45
mean I love her . I think she's hot as
8:47
Hot as shit . But I
8:50
mean she's way different from me staring at
8:52
her on her computer screen and then having her
8:54
sit here in front of me . You've got
8:56
to understand that sexual tension .
8:58
That's different what . I'm saying is Nah
9:00
, that's reality versus
9:02
that's . Sexual tension versus real
9:04
life sexual tension that's not the same . What I'm
9:06
saying is you're being very
9:09
specific about
9:11
almost sexualized versions of it
9:13
in real life .
9:14
Well that's exactly the only option that
9:16
I can see as a .
9:18
I'm not sleeping at any level . Okay , I'm
9:20
just saying .
9:24
What I'm saying is that's why my wife gets us .
9:27
What I'm saying is if you have so
9:30
if you have someone that you , let's
9:32
say you have someone that's I
9:34
don't know , you go to the pub every day , right English
9:37
? Yes , if you go to pub every day
9:39
and you meet someone , you say hello , end of the bar
9:41
, you know , and
9:43
there's no fucking hugging , there's no
9:45
you have the same language as the set of you
9:47
.
9:48
No , like , for example , the pub
9:50
, maybe in the north of .
9:51
England , but not in
9:53
the south of England . You went up to someone and you're like
9:55
you're all right , you probably get punched . So
9:58
I mean it's very
10:00
different .
10:01
So that was the only example I
10:03
can think of as separating it
10:05
up the future real life from
10:08
the actual real life . That was my only
10:10
example .
10:14
To me , the only qualifier I agree
10:16
with to me is if , like
10:18
I said , if you have friends or
10:20
a relationship that you wait
10:23
from oh , we've been together since my first
10:25
time to now , we live together
10:27
and so many people suddenly
10:30
go oh , my god , I fucking hate you
10:32
Because it's gone from . Oh , you
10:34
know , we saw each other every day , every other day
10:36
, right , and now I have to actually see what you're
10:38
like Like .
10:39
No , no , that fair , okay
10:41
, that could be , and I think that that's
10:43
a huge qualifier
10:46
in terms of like . Who you want to actually
10:48
, you know , devote
10:51
a lot of time to is someone , whether
10:53
it's a friend , a lover , a wife , girlfriend
10:56
, whoever it is . If you can
10:58
get to know that person on an actual
11:00
level , then you know it's , it's
11:02
worth your time .
11:04
But and so that would be the
11:06
online first Right
11:08
. No , no .
11:08
I'm not saying online I was qualified
11:11
, not correctly what I mean is like
11:17
you are every bit of yourself
11:19
in real life as you are online , and I
11:22
know that now . Well
11:24
, when
11:27
you meet someone in real life like I did , Leo
11:29
, they're the exact same .
11:30
Look at the playlist , but all of the what's up with that .
11:35
Promotion You're always promoting .
11:38
And now meeting you .
11:39
You're saying too , and so
11:42
that gives me comfort to go online again
11:44
and say you know what I want to talk to this person
11:46
and you know what I want to fucking meet that person .
11:48
But does that not just go against the point
11:50
you just made ?
11:51
Yes , it does , but that's what
11:53
I do .
11:54
I go get my , you all get yourself , I get myself , yes
11:56
, yes absolutely A percent of the time because
11:58
it lies .
11:59
I can argue with myself , I can't argue
12:01
with anyone else , let's fuck it .
12:03
Just use the line that I taught you no
12:05
, no , no . No
12:08
, no , that was brilliant Now in the
12:10
argument against yourself , so that you
12:12
can know you're an originally one .
12:14
Anyway , I know that I got into it all I sort
12:16
it , sort it .
12:17
The only thing he's remembered in a while . He thought
12:19
it was the line . That's why , yeah
12:23
, online friendships and online whatever
12:26
. I think if we'd have , come back .
12:28
Oh and Dave , sorry Dave , my dick went down here
12:30
. It is time , once again , to
12:32
thank this podcast's
12:34
biggest supporters . Without
12:37
you Okay
12:41
, yeah
12:43
, I'm trying to do two things at once here here
12:47
, hey Santa Without you , this
12:49
podcast does not exist . So
12:52
thank you , leo Guynam , thank
12:55
you Kirk Hofstrom , thank
12:57
you Casey Elliott , thank you Sarah
12:59
Delano , thank you Justin Allingham
13:02
, thank you Blush and Crafter , thank
13:04
you Jamie Young and thank you , beth
13:06
Jones . Without y'all
13:08
, this podcast cannot exist
13:10
.
13:14
And again the same . It's all of the e-mics
13:16
on the cameras . Guys just saying and
13:19
so am I Well anyone that thinks I'm like five
13:21
, six , anyone that still watches me from Twitch
13:23
. We've got some of you . Thank you , it's
13:25
good to know the 100 little wood is still
13:28
around , so thank you very much . If you are watching this , say
13:30
hi , I am six too . Okay
13:33
, actually , stand up , let's
13:35
go . I am not
13:37
fucking sure , all right , okay
13:40
, good , I'm glad either .
13:41
Yeah .
13:44
Yeah , it's like no , I'm not six , but this one is . But
13:46
, yeah , so I am not as a
13:48
small little bit , but
13:51
yeah , it's interesting . I think . If you went back five
13:54
, 10 years , I think it's very
13:56
different because people
13:59
didn't use the internet and online
14:01
as saying right , even like
14:03
it wasn't the same . I think Zoom
14:05
and , to a lesser extent
14:08
, skype , I think because
14:10
of COVID , has completely changed how
14:12
we use and Twitch being
14:14
live streaming , it's just
14:16
. It really changes how
14:19
we interact because we
14:22
are more , we're
14:24
more just
14:26
chatting to someone now . Yeah , rather
14:28
than the past . Well , I think it was a lot different
14:31
.
14:31
It's good to talk If you're on my
14:34
podcast tonight .
14:35
If you're in his podcast , go and check out his good stuff podcast
14:38
it will be
14:40
in the link below .
14:41
But it's a brilliant title . It's good to talk . That
14:44
title alone is
14:46
what I feel , is the most important
14:49
thing . It's efficient . Talk
14:51
to each other . Don't try to save
14:54
each other , just try to be
14:56
there If anyone wants to use
14:59
YouTube .
15:00
If you get it as a channel , I will subscribe because
15:02
YouTube's really good at swearing and built
15:04
fucking free .
15:07
But I mean , both of us hide behind certain things
15:09
. I hide behind the fact
15:12
that you know I'm still not
15:14
over that issue from
15:16
a couple years back and now I'm killing
15:19
myself . You know helping
15:21
. If you hide behind the
15:24
fact that , in my opinion , that
15:27
people can't love me , I'm
15:30
amazing , but he won't admit it
15:33
. I will not admit it
15:36
and that's the hardest thing . So
15:39
did you , but you're not getting it
15:41
wrong , I mean , I mean .
15:46
I'm not fucking fool .
15:49
Yeah , everyone hides behind something , Well
15:52
, everyone presents .
15:53
I mean , I've said this a lot , no matter
15:55
who you are
15:57
, everyone kind of masks to a
15:59
point anyway . Yeah , and even if they
16:01
like as well . I've always hated this . Oh
16:04
, I'm the same person in your life as I am online . No
16:06
, you're not , and I just you're
16:08
not because you may
16:11
seem and there may be a lot of it
16:13
, but that may also
16:15
mean that anybody else you mask the same way
16:17
, and I think when
16:20
people hear me say that they take it the wrong way . If
16:23
you go to the shop , you will
16:25
give a persona
16:27
to that person at the shop , differently
16:30
than you give to the barman
16:32
at the pub you go
16:34
to , to your I
16:37
don't know your bookie , to
16:39
your friends you
16:41
give a different face , and so this
16:44
idea of like I'll know everything
16:46
that I give out online is nice
16:48
. That's the point
16:50
. I've heard that one .
16:51
It's not making . Yeah , I've heard that one . Everything
16:54
you put out online is a face
16:57
. The face isn't real .
16:59
No , but the face to face
17:01
isn't real either .
17:04
Okay , good point that give up on this topic
17:06
.
17:07
The thing in real life is
17:09
can be just as the
17:12
thing is , is that . What I hate is to call
17:14
it because it's not fake , and I know that's what people will
17:16
say is , oh , you're just saying online is fake
17:18
, then , or you put the face forward
17:20
. But that's also the argument that every
17:23
neurotypical puts against neurodivergent
17:25
. Correct Masking doesn't mean fake
17:27
. It just means that it's the
17:29
easiest way for you to interact with
17:31
that community , that social
17:33
event , because that's the best
17:35
way that your mind can cope with it .
17:37
Correct . However
17:41
, as much as it might be an impossible
17:43
goal , I like impossible
17:46
, so I'm going
17:48
to meet everyone that I've spoken
17:52
with in real life
17:54
. Yeah , I mean like
17:56
if I tell you online on a zoom call
17:58
on a thing . Hey , by the
18:00
way , you have ADHD , you have autism , you have OCD
18:02
, you have this and you're struggling . Sit
18:06
there with you , and I will
18:08
sit there with you in real life also .
18:11
Yeah .
18:11
I don't have issues .
18:12
I think the thing is the thing we need
18:14
to think is that the
18:18
online thing . We
18:21
don't need to think of it as fake or
18:23
fake personas , because I think a lot of online
18:25
people get that . I mean , think
18:27
of your favorite YouTuber . Nine times out of
18:29
ten , everyone's just like oh well , they like that because
18:31
they're shut up . They don't
18:33
they are . But
18:35
also in real life people are going to be in Spain and
18:37
if in real life you know because
18:40
again , autism , adhd
18:43
, ocd , depression , whatever it is so
18:45
many times get told I'll beat your
18:47
faking them because you're masking , it's
18:49
not , that's not what
18:51
it is . Oh , no , I know . But so many times
18:54
people have told that as well , because it's like , oh
18:56
, but if it's not user
18:58
, that's not the case . I actually think
19:01
that neurotypicals , in terms
19:03
of day to day life , probably mask more
19:05
than your end of virgin . A hundred percent , too , pussy
19:07
ass , to fucking say it Exactly Because
19:10
they'll go into the world and treat them . This is the difference
19:12
.
19:12
So that's how you've got neurodivergence
19:15
.
19:15
You are less likely to buddy
19:18
up with your boss because you need
19:20
to . You're more likely to turn the fuck
19:22
off if they can get your nerves , but
19:25
a lot of other people will just , you
19:27
know , buddy up on it . You
19:30
know that's the bullshit about
19:32
it .
19:33
Neurodivirals power trick , neurodivergence
19:35
lead . There's a huge
19:37
difference in those two things . I try my
19:40
best not to you
19:42
try , but you do . I'll
19:45
start the fucking back .
19:46
Someone else got the reins , got dammit .
19:51
Yeah , I'd rather not , but
19:53
anyone better not to do it . There's now
19:55
people out there going .
19:56
Oh , but you wasn't charged .
19:57
That's because you fuckers don't step
19:59
up , right , that's because you fucking per se
20:01
. That's the entire point .
20:04
Yeah , I mean so I think there's
20:06
a thing about relationships . I think
20:08
the thing we just all need to get used to is that
20:10
all of us are going to put on a
20:13
little bit of bullshit . It's time to time
20:15
, no matter what it is , because we
20:18
need to for ourselves . That
20:20
is not someone lying . It's
20:22
just someone trying to not
20:24
feel uncomfortable .
20:25
Right .
20:26
And I think that's where a lot of it comes from . But unfortunately , because
20:28
of the online world , it's been moved over
20:30
to our people online and on real , often
20:32
neurodivergent . Well
20:36
, they're just lazy and lying , and that's the
20:38
thing .
20:38
But isn't that a little bit dangerous
20:41
in some ways ? If
20:44
you're only comfortable online , did
20:46
you just stay online forever instead
20:49
of getting out into the real world ? To me that's a
20:51
little bit dangerous . There's two things
20:53
.
20:54
I've issued . There's one I think
20:56
the real world can be online and two
20:58
, but two also
21:00
for some people . For
21:04
some people , they're far better online , hey
21:06
.
21:06
I've done it and that's the thing . That's the whole premise . Yeah
21:09
, it's whatever works for you . Whatever works for you . Did you
21:11
fucking do it ? Yeah ?
21:13
well , I'll go back to the thing Again
21:15
. Anybody from the 100-lip of words again , thank
21:17
you , I think . Well , I used
21:19
to say what works for you works for
21:21
you . It sounded like my stupid life .
21:23
It's true , but if it works for you then
21:25
why would you do something ? Else .
21:26
It was also why maybe we
21:29
should try and change certain people with mental health
21:31
issues behavior to suit what you
21:33
think is normal . I'm looking at a few
21:35
psychologists in America that can't be being sued
21:37
Anyway .
21:40
But let's get all over America for this . No
21:43
, no , it's just that they're the ones being sued the most . I
21:46
think , again what you mean . But
21:50
I think we have , as you said , that's my biggest
21:52
weakness . I
21:55
know what to say and I can't say it well
21:57
. Well , it's not just that , I think there's also a
21:59
bias for you . You do have
22:01
a bias against the
22:04
kind of what I have a bias
22:06
against is people literally
22:09
saying in front of the computer
22:11
screen for days on
22:14
end doing absolutely
22:17
.
22:17
Like yes , they might not be doing that
22:19
, they're helping .
22:22
They're doing great things , but that's
22:24
the second . They start to get away from that computer
22:26
and they go out into the real world
22:28
where relationships actually
22:30
, like you can't just click the X button , like
22:33
you can't just say in cult .
22:36
That's called an Irish goodbye .
22:40
You see , I point on this that
22:42
matters .
22:43
So like social skills do at
22:45
some point matter
22:47
, and I swear to you
22:49
, everyone has ever met me going in
22:52
total and that . But then
22:54
there's definitely two of them . Everyone
22:56
in the ? U is fucking mad . However
22:58
, however when I'm back
23:00
at home , I walk out my door , I go to the shop
23:03
and then I'll come home . I'll do that and then I'll come out . And
23:05
no one knows where I live because they don't need to . So
23:07
I am the other side of it . I
23:10
am far more comfortable
23:12
in front of my screen
23:14
, so I
23:16
like being outside , but I feel comfortable
23:19
in front of my screen , right
23:21
, because that's . I don't
23:23
have to deal with other people
23:26
judging , assuming I
23:29
just deal with what I want . I
23:31
want to watch on YouTube the work I need
23:33
to do doing a podcast
23:35
. I have the control and the
23:38
assumptions of others are things that I've
23:40
had to deal with my entire life , because it's quite
23:42
exciting when I talk Because of whatever
23:44
I have an assumption online , because
23:46
I get to press the red button and tell
23:48
them to fuck off . Right , and that's why in
23:50
real life , if something happens , I walk
23:53
away , I disappear , because
23:55
why do I have to put up with it ? Just
23:57
because they want to have what
23:59
you call real life is for me .
24:02
You know what I am calling real life ?
24:04
I don't know , because online can be real life too . So
24:06
it is what you are calling real life .
24:08
Because you specify the things . This is where you get
24:10
a little bit defensive . No
24:14
, no , no , no , matt , it's not the thing .
24:16
It comes down to actual people . No
24:18
, because you specify outside as real life . You
24:21
specify that I can rewind it and play
24:23
it for the other person .
24:24
No , no that's 100% fine . But
24:26
what you should notice is that when I say those
24:28
things , it's not what I actually
24:30
that doesn't mean that
24:32
you should be smart enough to be able to read
24:34
.
24:35
Well , I don't agree with that Smart
24:37
but anyway , there
24:39
will be a book coming soon . I swear to God
24:41
Smart , save my shit in Amazon at some point . But
24:44
what I mean is I am using that as an indicator
24:46
. It's not about smart or anything else . If
24:49
you give a specific , I am going to answer the specific
24:51
I know . But
24:53
my point is if
24:55
you look at real life , if
24:58
I am dealing with the
25:00
outside real life , then
25:02
I have to deal with that shit for too long . I
25:05
don't have to . If I don't
25:07
have to , why would I ?
25:10
Because it's a
25:12
good question and you're going
25:14
to hate the answer . You're going to know what the answer is
25:16
that I'll say it's because
25:18
, would you actually get away
25:21
from what's comfortable , that you actually
25:23
live ?
25:26
But I've
25:28
lived fine without it . There's
25:30
plenty of people , so
25:32
how many of the top YouTubers
25:35
do you think ?
25:35
live .
25:36
My point is how many of the top YouTubers lived
25:39
before they were behind the screen for
25:41
?
25:41
Daydream . The thing
25:44
is they're filming living
25:49
like they're doing things outside
25:52
of a suit Side men , Logan Paul , Jake
25:54
Paul , all just
25:56
in their own homes Right , but
25:58
most like Mr Beast is your
26:00
favorite .
26:02
Just behind the screen .
26:03
Well , to start , for the first
26:05
eight years , to start . So then
26:07
they branch out , leaving
26:10
that space and going into
26:12
the actual real world . And
26:15
the first . Thing .
26:15
Mr Beast did after having a bad interaction
26:17
with what look ? Wait , wait , wait . My point
26:19
is still . I'm still continuing . Is
26:23
the first thing that the beast did because
26:26
of interactions badly in the outside world
26:28
, was
26:31
to buy and renovate
26:33
a complex in which he lives
26:35
. Now he lives on his own complex , which is
26:37
where they also feel Right , so
26:40
he lives within that complex .
26:41
They feel as
26:43
in his crew . But
26:45
he has people around him .
26:48
When he wishes them to no when he wishes them
26:50
to be . He lives there with security , I'm
26:53
sure at some point . But he lives in there . He's got his own
26:55
little . I only know about his Mr
26:57
who's . The Boss went and visited . He's got his own
26:59
room . He doesn't like . He has his
27:01
own little room in there , sectioned off with
27:03
ensuite . It's not like he's got a thing . He
27:05
has them brought himself back in
27:07
because that's better
27:10
for him . Now I'm not what I'm . What
27:12
I'm not saying is that that's
27:14
going to be the same for everyone . My point is you
27:17
don't need to be offline
27:19
to live . You don't need to be offline
27:22
to see something better for some
27:24
people Correct , you do Correct
27:26
In the same way as for some people probably
27:29
should get offline , It'll be better , Right . I
27:32
think , the the bad . The bad arguing is
27:34
to assume that everyone needs
27:36
it , and I'm not saying you're making that argument . I'm
27:39
not . I'm not saying you're a couple
27:41
of older mothers to say that in the comments . Your
27:45
36 year old is staying in the basement . I'm sorry
27:47
, but that
27:49
that's the problem . Like I , and
27:51
even if you're , even if you feel
27:53
that you don't need to be comfortable in
27:55
the real world or whatever I wasn't
27:58
comfortable for to the point where I've
28:00
had a shitty time
28:02
at certain times in life . I
28:04
don't see the need to continue
28:06
that and having
28:08
to continue with . The biggest thing for me is other
28:10
people's assumptions on me because of certain
28:12
things . I don't need to deal with
28:14
them being dicks , because any response I
28:17
have to that fuels their own assumption
28:19
. Right , so I'm , I'm .
28:21
I'm not sure , I don't know . I thought you looked like
28:23
one thing really quick before we . I won't
28:25
assume anything about you .
28:27
That's why I'm trying to advise you . I think it's fun , it's
28:30
fucking fun , to hang out with you . That's why I talked
28:32
to you online .
28:34
Now Spark has started a fundraising
28:36
effort for crisis techslide . We
28:38
have a goal of $19 per episode
28:40
, as $19 . Supports
28:44
just one person in their time
28:46
crisis with mental health . If
28:48
you would like to donate through our fundraiser
28:50
titled Warrants and Affinity , the
28:53
link is listed in the episode's description
28:55
. Warren
28:57
was my wife's best friend and
29:00
loved my all .
29:07
At first and
29:09
now you're here at my fucking house .
29:12
And what's the next thing we'll be doing on the next couple of
29:14
days ? Talking about lunch . It's very true
29:18
. It may have started online
29:20
, but it's , and we'll continue
29:22
so Right Until the next
29:24
meetup .
29:25
And then until the next meetup . Until the next meetup .
29:27
And then we go back , right , yeah , but
29:29
at the end of the day it's sustained by fun for
29:32
me , yeah , whichever one
29:34
is sustained by the way in
29:36
which that person feels comfortable .
29:38
Right Is the main thing , and I
29:40
feel comfortable with that . No , it's not the same . By the
29:42
way , I'm not being held here , but against my
29:44
will . It's fine and I'm pretty sure I could take it
29:46
.
29:47
I mean , there is a lot of fireworks .
29:49
It's pretty firepower when I am in Florida
29:52
, but you know it's
29:54
. I think that there's some flexibility and that's
29:56
fine , but that's also fine and I think that's
29:58
. I think it takes a different level . I
30:01
also think it's something very specific
30:03
for certain mental
30:05
health issues as well . Is that
30:07
a level of comfortable is the best between you
30:09
know , there's a version of neurotypicals that neurotypicals
30:12
too often try
30:14
to step over and step into . I know
30:16
and
30:19
that's probably where a lot of my issue
30:21
comes from is they don't step into it Because
30:23
it's like they don't
30:26
need to act like you , they don't need to interact the way
30:28
that you do , because they're not doing anything wrong , right . If
30:30
they're doing something wrong , that's different
30:33
, but if they're not , they're not fucking
30:35
alone , they're fine . I know Parents
30:37
with mental health issues . Um
30:40
, yeah .
30:41
And no , I totally agree with that and that's
30:43
hurt my life immensely
30:46
, is you know , people like me ? It's
30:49
more like oh , you should , you should
30:52
do this , you should do
30:54
this , Can I do this ? Please do this
30:56
, Please do this . My thing
30:58
is they're like I don't
31:02
just let me .
31:02
Fucking helps myself
31:04
and someone else Like I'm
31:07
done , like you
31:09
should do this , you should do this . How is that
31:11
going to change the world ? It's
31:13
not . I'm
31:16
usually called too aggressive and I'm like
31:18
.
31:18
It's not just because I'm big , but that's
31:20
why I fucking love you is because you're so aggressive
31:23
. I'm not . I know , and
31:25
that's the thing I think for a lot of people , the aggressiveness
31:29
you hear .
31:30
I'm bigger than them . That's not my fucking . That's
31:32
called genetics . It's science people
31:34
Learning Um .
31:38
I'm a self .
31:40
Um , I mean , it's that . That's the thing
31:42
about that . It's first , it's first . I'm sure it
31:44
gets Um , and it's just it
31:47
. People just need to be able
31:49
to come to what they are . Now , obviously , if we're
31:52
talking relationships , if you've got one person online
31:54
, that's so comfortable online and
31:56
one person is no comfortable online . Maybe
31:59
this , I mean that one that
32:01
one's gonna that may . That may clash a little bit .
32:03
That may be a I don't know that's gonna
32:05
. That's gonna struggle a bit , but it's just . You know it's
32:08
being in relationships my wife is
32:10
just good .
32:10
Yeah , we got to get to the point . So
32:13
, um , I don't know . Hello , sweetheart
32:15
, that was that was no point
32:17
just bought off because there never is Um , but
32:19
hopefully you've had a good new year .
