The speaker shares a deeply personal and unsettling experience of recurring dreams in which their mother is portrayed as manipulative and attempting to possess their family, which has caused significant emotional distress. This fear is compounded by a recent text from their mother that feels inauthentic or AI-generated, amplifying their sense of unease and distrust. The dream content prompts the speaker to consider starting a dream journal as a tool for self-reflection and emotional processing. They note how society often dismisses dreams involving danger or trauma while finding meaning in more trivial or humorous ones, highlighting a disparity in how personal experiences are valued. The conversation then expands to a broader awe and concern about the physical infrastructure of the internet—submarine fiber optic cables that carry most global data—emphasizing their vulnerability and fragility despite their critical role in modern life. This leads to a deeper critique of technology’s impact on human experience, including the erosion of real emotional connections in service interactions and the loss of hands-on, creative experiences. The speaker advocates for more tangible, community-based, and human-centered activities—like building a bear or learning from an expert in person—over digital, passive engagement. The discussion concludes with a reflection on media representation, personal relationships, and emotional growth, underlining how small moments—like a teacher moving a student to a different seat—can have profound and unexpected impacts. These interconnected themes point to a broader anxiety about reality, control, and personal agency in a world increasingly shaped by technology, systems, and unconscious influence.
I'm pretty spooked right now because I had like a weird dream that my mom was like in like, she was like housing a spirit and she was like very sly and manipulative and she was visibly trying to like take me in my family and do something various with us possess. Yes. The word that I couldn't find to possess, the word is possess. And it was really unsettling. Totally. I've been having weird dreams about my family too. But I wake up to a text from my mom that's like, "Hi, I haven't seen you in a while. We should plan a trip," or maybe like, I don't know, this really like weird almost like AI scripted text. Yeah. Like the demon had to have her phone. Yeah. North posted this. Yeah, I didn't even realize. So now I'm kind of like doubly freaked out that now we're saying into the realities that we're not a part of. Yeah. I've been thinking about keeping a dream journal because my dreams have been so weird. And like, obviously I needed another journal on top of the 18. I'm already keeping up with it. I think dream journal could be necessary. Yeah. I like feels like. I mean, yeah. I'm already in the third. Yeah. When I said I'm thinking about getting one, the word was placed, baby. Okay. Yeah. Look at that. It's another hope in each. It's the line to notebook for now. When someone tells you about their dream, do you care at all? Like when I just started to tell you where you're just like, oh my god, I'm thinking about my journals. Mm-hmm. I would say you've had a few, you've had a few dreams that have made me laugh. But typically I only care about someone else's dream if I'm in it. Which is just like, or it's like really funny. But like I'm happy to. People cared about my turtles dream when I told them that's a turtles. Or one that you can analyze. Yeah. But, no, I mean, I always care. It's just like some are definitely more interesting than others. I like when people are like, oh, you had a dream that your hair is falling out. Your teeth are falling out. That's anxiety. And I'm like, I had a dream that my mom was trying to kill my family. And they're like, I don't know what that could be. Well, here's the thing, Connor. Someone will let us know. I know. But like, why does like my hair falling out, my dream mean I'm pregnant, but my mom murdering my family means nothing to anybody. You guys don't bat an eye, and she physically texted me like, why is my dream making me not trust my mom like dreams are really something to me. They're powerful. Yeah, they are. There's so many people that are like, I had a dream about someone I haven't seen in like 10 years. And then I saw them the next day. It does in the world. Yeah. Weird. Weird. We can leave it there. You know how, we're always talking about how our phones are probably reading our minds. They are. There's a darker reality that I just figured out what I don't think like our microphone. You know how we're always like, okay, like we're looking for answers so we like kind of like plant seeds for our mic. Yeah. You never get those ads when I'm like, I want to watch cheap flights to Bermuda. Cheap flights to Bermuda and never picks up on that. I think it goes so much deeper that what I'm looking at on my phone is actually influencing my subconscious to what I end up talking about. It's a cycle. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's going, I think they reverse engineered. Interesting. Yeah. That reminds me of something that I wanted to tell you. That's, I'm right here. Do you know anything about the internet and like where it comes from? Can I guess? Yeah. You're never going to get this. No, I might. It's a series of channels. That might be, but like what is the source of the channels? What is the source of the internet? Yeah. It's a physical thing. No. Is it like a tree of life situation? Immular. There is an origin that is a physical thing. It has to be, like if I'm being realistic, I want to have fun with this. You know, you know I want to have fun with this. Like so badly on my hair down, neutral full style, and like have fun longer, thicker, stronger. Yes. But that, that, that, that won't kill me. That would happen. Okay. But it has to be a data center in an, an Arctic. So close. Really? Kind of. Or Connor? Connor? What? Yeah. There is a Atlantic cable running the length of the ocean. I think the Atlantic that it just is the internet. It's at the bottom of the ocean floor. That's where our internet is. It's a cable. What is it doing down there? That's just the internet. Okay, but I can't get service upstairs in my house, but like it's on the ocean floor. Lift it up. I don't get, I don't get it at all. And obviously this has to be the truth because I saw it on TikTok. I would like to double check. Okay. I would like a second opinion. Completely believe you. Don't fully need to double check. If we were at launch and I didn't feel like opening my phone to access the bottom of the ocean, I would just move forward. Take it. But we're here. Yeah. Might as well. Check this out. Submarine fiber optic cables. That was the word I was looking for when I met, when I said series of channels. I met fiber optic cables. Yes. Yes. I knew I didn't mean that. Listen, I knew what you meant. Okay. I did mean that. Often no thicker than a garden hose. Backbone of the Internet. Well, thank you fiber optic cables for carrying the whole team on your back. Literally. Listen to this. Carrying over 99% of international data across the ocean floor, these cables connect continents, span over 1.5 million kilometers in total and transmit massive amounts of data at the nearly the speed of light. Like, hi. Like, I'm on my phone right now, or just not now, but every other second of the day, thanks to this cable on the bottom of the ocean floor, which I never knew about how and it's no thicker than a garden hose. No thicker than a garden hose. Is that not crazy? No, it is crazy. Is that is there only one? There's only one hose. It definitely spans continents. But is there several? It's a good question. I mean, like, sorry, there's, oh, there's over 570 in service submarine cables. There's a lot of systems worldwide with an additional 81 planned. But I was watching this tech talk about when they planted the first one. They're just literally like, like, planting a cable on the bottom of the ocean floor and then we had internet. I'm sure they're a little bit more when into it. But whoa. No, but whoa. Anyway, I thought you should know. No, thank you. That. It looks like the thing you plug into your wall when you're setting up spectrum. It is completely the thing that you plug into your wall. But just think about it in the ocean. It is completely insane that because they put a garden hose at the bottom of the ocean, I have to spend three hours on the front of the spectrum customer service. I wise, that's so hard, but it seems to be pretty easy that they did this win. 1858. Also, my understanding is that technology can't get wet. Oh. So, why is our biggest source in the water? Completely vulnerable. I guess it's because it's encased in like more of a hose material, but what is it plug into? Yeah. I feel like that. It's like, yeah. I don't know. We are. This is why, like, we need to have like a hand green on set at all times. You know, because it's like, what are you plugging into? What are you plugging? Like, where does the hose go? I don't know. Oh my gosh. This is amazing. I've never heard of this. So, I went into the specialized coastal facility called cable landing stations. We've got, now we've got, we've, we've got now away from our, like, I really just was fascinated by the hose piece. I know. I know. And then it's like too difficult to start to think about thinking about. So, it's just kind of, it's kind of dangling there, just in there. So, you're telling me if I dug for a sand castle, I could hit the cable. Like, everyone's thinking about digging to China, like, hi, let's try digging to the cable landing station. For once. I agree. So, anyway, I just wanted to let you know. Nice out. Like, not to just go there already. This is where my mind's been in the past week, but like, when we think about our future, I don't want to. I don't either. You think I do? Is this not, leave us a bit vulnerable for several things to happen to as negatively, if our, if our entire kind of, like, network and livelihood is, is, is enough, and is in the size of a hose? Well, at least there's 570 plus. There's also 570 plus, like, people that I could think of. Maybe if we sat here for long enough, I can think that, and I'm like, everyone gets a hose. I also don't think it's, like, easy to access, you know, I don't think that just anyone could access, like, access the ocean floor. No, but they could access the beach. I don't know. About the landing station. The landing station. It seems a bit vulnerable, but we just, we just Googled it via the, via the cable. We don't, we just, like, we don't know enough about the cables to know if, like, there's, there's just anyone know where they are. That's a good question, too. I, like, this is something that I don't have. Like the thing is, with enough charisma, I feel like we could find out. I feel like if we, if we kind of, like, whined and done someone that knew where the landing station was, like, they would let us know where the cable is. But, like, I don't think that they would let us.
Like, there's no way that you could get all 570. - People have collected 570 of many things across the world. - Anyway, I don't know. - Ty Dillon would have a hay day with this conversation. - Oh, well, hopefully-- - Ty'd tap in. - No, all good, on that. - Hey, wait, I have a, here I have a bone to pick with the landing station and like if I were optic cables, I got cut off by a Waymo on the way here. - Really? - And I feel like this is something that we would share frustration is in. - From my experience, they're like really non-aggressive. - I think it got to a point where it also needed to exit at the specific exit that we were at and it cut me right off. But I'm in a Nissan Center this week. So I'm blasting my music. I'm having a great time. I'm listening to the new Ella Langley song. - Choose in Texas? - No, oh my god, there's a new one and-- - Let me calm down. It's very good. - Is she's in Texas? - No, it's-- - Like is it up on a caliber? - Back to life, it's back to life again. Brooke, it is-- - She's gorgeous. - It is, she's about six or seven years younger than both of us. - Don't tell me that. - I wish she was in her forties. - So many people are younger than us. - But she's just simply not. It is such a fabulous song. I'm such a huge Ella Langley fan. - Two. - She's like really pure, she's like if country music was like a, a, a, oh my god. (laughing) I'm just finding where it's for, sorry, doing that. Like warm glass of milk if I was into that. I'm not, but like a warm drink. - She's cozy country. - Yeah. She's cozy country. - Yeah, I really love, I wanna listen to this in the bonus 'cause I really love she's in Texas, which is the one that I know. - You are gonna cream your shorts. It is such a good song. - Oh, why that? - So I'm pretty really, I'm in a good mood. I'm here, I'm about to exit. And then the way Mo cuts me off. I'm like not necessarily road ragey, but the fact that I didn't have the option to provide feedback to someone, even just. - Thumbs down. - Yeah, it made me more mad. So like when we talk about AI and things like taking your jobs, let it know that it's also taking very base level human experiences away from you too and expressions of emotions. I had to just bottle that. So later on, when I get really mad at a gate agent at the airport, like I blame it on Wemo. - Well said. - It's really not my fault. - Taking away some of that human experience. - Yeah. - You've had some really powerful statements about AI that have like kind of influenced me, genuinely. - I'm like very, very scared and upset by AI recently. - Yeah, I got that. - Yeah. - I like there's a lot of other things happening that have now like shifted my focus. I do wanna say just suggestion from Wemo. Like if you can provide a how am I doing number on the back so that I can cuss at one of your customer service employees, like on behalf of the car driving, not their fault at all, obviously, but I need an outlet. - Yeah. - Would be nice. Or maybe you guys love technology. Put a hologram up there. I'll flick off the hologram. - I hate to say it, but like this is where journaling comes in handy. - I can't journal. - Period. - Like on the move. - Oh, you're saying you were gonna call customer service like in that moment. - Hey Siri, call customer. Call 8-1-8. - Okay. - 7-4-7-3-3-6-3. Hi. What the fuck was that all about? - You can text a voice journal in your notes app. - Yeah, that might be a good move. Anyways, yeah, so the AI thing has been scary me. You know what they had at the airport? - What? - A build a bare vending machine and the bears just come out through that hole. - And there's no building involved? - No, AI is not only taking your jobs and taking your human experience, they're taking away. - I don't think that's AI, that's just a machine. - I have trouble with distinguishing me too. 'Cause sometimes I like to share something and someone's like your horrible person, this is AI and it's like, I truly didn't know. - There it is. That disturbed me to my actual physical core. That looks like, that's like if I looked in the zoo and there was a sea otter vaping. - Yeah, that's not build a bear. That's just bear. - Who's building the bear? - It's just a bear. - That's just a bear vending machine. - Yeah, that's just a bear. Oh my God, I wish I had saved my build a bears. - We should go to build a bear. - I would. - We can go to build a bear. - Like nothing would make me happier. And I wish, I guess, like there should be more places where you can make your own stuff. Like the Louise Carmen journal making. Like just like, I wanna be making my own stuff. Even if it's like clothes, like I wanna go to a place where like, sure, maybe there's just like a blank t shirt, but let me decide what I wanna put on it. - Broke yarns for the sweatshop. - No, it's not quite that I'm yearning for the sweatshop. It's that I'm yearning to have more creative outlets while spending money, which I, is something I also like to do on my life. - Also, third space is, that gives you a third space. Like you don't necessarily want to order the DIY kit and sit at home and do it. You wanna go to a physical brick and mortar place, have someone instruct you how to do it, have the community of people around you. Build a bear. - Key piece about that? Show me what to do. I told you when I went to build my own journal. The other day, and it was scanned the QR code to watch a video on how to build it. I can't fault, that's not the type of instruction that my brain can process. I need hand over hand. - Hands on. - I want an expert in the field physically there. - I want an expert in the field. Do not give me YouTube video. That's the thing I can do at home. I want your words in my ears and your hands on my hands. Take the ropes and show mama. Don't give mama the fish. - Teach her how to fish. - Yeah. - Give her the pull. - Yeah. - Give mama the pull. - And the pull to mama now. - Mama's term with the pull. - So anyway, completely aligned with you. - I'm glad, I'm feeling aligned with you today. - Oh, awesome. - Yeah. - I love when that happens. - No, it's awesome. - Oh, it's awesome. - And we have been spending time together. We went to the Han Montana 20th anniversary. - We did. - Much on back. I mean, I just have two things on back. - Oh yeah, I was thinking I don't have too many. - What are the two you have? - I have a carry on here. One, watch this film. It is so, like, I was taken aback only because I'm watching this and Miley's house is shitting, we go to the premiere. Miley's house is shitting there with us. And it's loud because of how funny she was. - She is. - I could have been a comedy special. - They should have called it the Han Montana comedy special. It was so funny. She is so funny. - She's amazing. - She is so real. So that was great. I think the opening I do wanna touch on just like her coming out and she talks, she says like, I have nothing planned. The end of her intro to the thing was so, like abrupt for where we were. And I don't think it was intentional. And I know like a lot of press outlets are like, Miley Cyrus shades Alex Cooper in the, it basically like she came out and she's saying like, Alex was a bigger fan. There's no one I trusted more with hosting this show and I was so excited to give it to you guys. And then she's like, and Alex got a little bit of money and she moved right next to me. And I knew she knew where I lived because she interviewed me five years before at my house. So that's pretty creepy. And I think it was just like, if you know Miley Cyrus at all, she's just straight forward. - That is her love language. - There's no, it's a picking on people lovingly. - Yeah. I don't think it landed with the audience of people trying to clock it, but. - No, people are like twisting her attention. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Like that's, I just like, 'cause I know her so well. - Me too. - Exactly. - I follow everything. - Yeah. - That is how she, she likes like poking fun to people. - It landed with us. We were laughing. - Yeah, when you were in the room like two of us were and you're that close with Miley, you know what she's saying. - Yeah. - And these media outlets, they weren't there, you know? And they don't get her, they don't get her like we do. And it's all fun and games. And you know, but you know who's not fun and games genuinely? - Ooh. - You know what I'm gonna say? Chop. - Yeah, that's what my next piece. - Chappel in the special bad timing, of course. Just absolutely abhorrent timing. Just like the intro to like all these people, 'cause like she brings out Selena Gomez and it's like, okay. And she brings out her papa. And it's like, okay, this makes sense. And then it's like, and now this next person, just unbelievable that they're here. And I'm like, Michelle Obama, like who could it be? Chappel wrote and comes out complete crickets in the crowd. Like not even a cricket made otherwise. - No, everyone went ooh. (laughing) - And it was just quite, like everyone else got a clap 'cause everyone was in the room. All these people were in the room. Nothing for Chappel. And then I think, I think if Dave Chappel was announced as the next person on the special, like people would have clapped. Nothing, nothing for Chappel Ron. - She's not going through, she's not going through a good time right now. - No. And it more is coming out on that too, which we can, but basically Chappel's thing when she came in, was like, I just want to thank you. I grew up watching you. All these things, Miley's obviously just like, oh, I'm so thankful that you're here so sweet. And Chappel's like, you walked so I could run. You worked so hard to make sure that women in the space wouldn't be,
a tax on red carpets and now I don't have to go through that and everyone goes in the room and then everyone starts laughing. And I was just like, I'm sinking in my sea. I'm looking at you. You're like doing the same thing. But it was just like, oh, what? What? You know what got me more about that than her saying like, no, I don't have to worry. If someone told me that I walked so they could run, I want to quickly touch on that too. Miley Cyrus. I would say wait, wait, wait, wait. Oh, wait. Oh, wait. Yeah. Wait. Yeah. I was sprinting. I wouldn't say I walked. No. Like that. To me, I would have taken that as an answer. I would say Miley Cyrus ran. So chop, chapel could kind of just like, walk around kind of and enjoy, I would have enjoyed my time, sprinted so I could crawl for 20 years. So obviously, like, it's a common expression. Chapel, like, I don't mean to be hard on her. She didn't, she meant to it as a compliment, of course. Truly, it should be rancid so I could walk. But I would, yeah. I would have been like, ah, me. Miley's not like that. No, not Miley, but it's just an, it's an interesting expression, less about chapel and more about the expression itself. Like, I don't, I don't think it lands. I use it yesterday. And the exact same way. And I said walk so I could ran so I can walk. And I was like, oh, that's not right. I think it's inherently putting down the person you're saying walk. Yeah, well, because you're like, you walked, because it implies that the person who ran is like a bigger, you know? I think it implies that like, you walked so I could run like, you like planted the seed so that I could really take off. It's like, we have an opposite because now it like doesn't make any sense that anyone would ever say that. No, that's what I'm saying. Like, I think it doesn't make sense. Like, I think it should be some, I think it should be something else. Unless you mean it like that. Like, sometimes it makes sense. Like, it'll be like, you did these little things, so I could do these massive things. Usually when I say you walked, when I say this person walked, so this person could run, run. And I wish I had a good example. The person that walked just didn't really take off enough, but the person who ran did, you know? Yeah. Yeah. Because it implies like this person walked is like inherently like lesser than run. I'm having a hard time with my tenses. I know, I know what you mean. Do you know what I'm saying? I mean, it's difficult, but I hope you all can understand what I'm saying. It's just, I just think we need a new expression. Yeah. Can you give me a second to think of an example? Yeah. Maybe like, Neopets walked so that webkins could run. Like, we started getting interested with Neopets, but then things really blew up with webkins. Yeah. You know, it implies that the second thing, the latter is the one that really took off. Aligned. Again. Who cares though? Okay. That's it. And then I watched the Hannah Montana movie last night, because I was in the mood. Why are you laughing? I'm saying my favorite part. You'll watch the show. You'll get it if you watch the show skip, skip 30 seconds if you cared and not here. Favorite part in the whole film. The Hannah Montana movie when she says we were looking for someone who, and I'm just going to be frank here, would perform in a barn. I was like, oh shit. That makes so much more sense. I thought she said bar. Barn. I mean, it was the funniest. And then it was Taylor's Swift. She was like, quite frankly, at the time, that was Taylor Swift. It was just so funny. She's so funny. She's so funny. She was talking as a, just like frankly, like as a, like a 12-year-old is being like, I dated Dylan Sprouse. And I was like, bring Cole. I love the way she was talking about having a crush on everyone. Because like, that is what I, she was 12. She was like 11. Like, that is what you're, that's all you're thinking about. I'm not going to go through all the things she said that were so funny. But she was not something about her crushes, which I loved. That, like, love triangle she had as Hannah Montana. And it was that Jake. And I don't know the other one. Jesse. Jesse. And Jake was there. Jake Ryan. Jake Ryan was there. Jake Ryan was there. He stepped right in front of us and then I left that at the end. And I kept pointing. I was like, I mean, he's, he's like tiny and brunette. So kind of like unblockable. But he had a bodyguard. No, he did. No, he was wondering how to alone all night. No, his bodyguard was nearby. Oh, I didn't see the bodyguard. I'm glad you didn't. That means he was on his duty. But that's fun. That's so fun. I'm so glad we did that. Me too. I freaking love Hannah. My shirt. So I wore a shirt there. My shirt was great. But it photographed as if I was pregnant. And it was a structural integrity of the shirt itself because it was cropped. And it had a very stiff, stiff life about it. And did you see? I loved everything about your shirt. It was cropped. Yeah. Anyways, it looked, made me look, I mean, you can kind of zoom there if you want to. I did look super, super second try. Oh my god. I was sobbing about my hair. Can you zoom? No, it looks great. No, I look like. Oh, I see. I'm housing like, and like, I'm about to pop, but in my upper abdomen. I look really good there. Yeah. Anyways, it was a shirt, but that was really fun. I haven't gone to something like that in a long time. It was really fun. And I loved the people watching. Oh my god. Like, I had one of those moments that I was just like, if little brook. Yeah. If I could tell her because someone worked from a classroom was like, brook, brook, brook. I mean, it's like my close personal friend, David Archuleta. Yeah. I saw you get soft to my hand. So I'm just like, that's my, like, my brother. And if I could tell little brook that like, your brother's reaching out to you with the Hannah Montana premiere, like, come on, man. Come on, man. That's like, it's those things to me that are just like, come on, man. Come on, man. What, like, what are you talking about? Anyway, it made me happy. To look back, wait, it seems like nothing changed. Day to day, it seems like nothing changes, but look back, nothing's the same. No, even like a, it could feel like nothing changes any year, but like, if I tell my year ago self, like, everything that's happened, it's sold. Good amount. Sure. That's why it's important to journal. Yes. I'm about to fill up my first. Are you close to the mic? No, I'm so sorry. No, not at all. No, thanks for tracking. I wasn't even remotely close to it. No worries. I don't care. I'm going through something like really, really shitty. What? The Washington's going to be like, my sour cream didn't come in like, no, so much. It's worth so much for me. My God, tell me. I have a new celebrity crush. Can I, let me think? No, I don't want you to. Here's the bad part. You know them? No, it's not a new celebrity crush. It's always been like someone I've been interested in, but it flared recently. And I can't talk about it because it is someone that we're, like, we have probably been in a room with, we'll be in a room with way too close to us. And it just always feels like when this happens because it's happened before. It feels like I have to throw up and I can't get it out. When I can't talk about my celebrity crush. That's not like you. You're telling me I can't post about this person. Oh, I see. 15 times a day. I feel like I'm going to throw up and it's not coming. It's like in my throat. Can you give me a hand? I mean, I'll tell you later, but it's just like, it sucks because I'm consuming so much content of this person. Oh, I know who it is. No, you don't. It's just so so hard for me. But hey, man, that's what journals are for. Am I right, brother? But just now it's like, this has happened before and it'll happen again. And I hated it. It feels, it feels an authentic and it makes me feel nauseous. Just now I'm like exploding. Sorry. It's all right. I wish I had something happening in my personal life at all, but it's just not nothing's happening at all. All my stuff is like related to the headlines. Like I'm just being affected by the news. Yeah. I've been kind of depressed. I don't know why. Just like my house is really dirty and it's like it overwhelms me to even like think about picking something up. Totally. I get that. I, my landlord, I don't know if I told this last week, but like I'm obviously going to move like love my apartment, but I just like, it's not right for me. And my landlord goes, Hey, what have you said? Did I tell you this? Yeah. I said, I'm not going to stay like you're raising the rent. She goes, What if we don't raise the rent? I say, I'm like, it's just wrong for me. And she goes, Okay, then we'll be over, we'll be over to do a walkthrough on Sunday. And I was like, I'm out of town to Wednesday. And my place has been, I came in to unpacked, packed, came in the suitcase. And she goes, we're doing it Sunday. I go, enjoy the space. Yeah. Not your fault. She goes in. She does walk there. I get a text from her long. I'm assuming it's going to be like, How are you living like this? She asks me, What can we do to make the unit better so that you stay? What's going on? I don't know.
Something like I'm getting love bombed by my landlord. - Yeah, I don't know. - And I haven't. - Also your apartment is incredible. It's not like someone else is not gonna want that pretty immediately. - Yeah, well I think that I got sucker punched to be honest. Like when I signed the lease. - Like, she. - 'Cause I was desperate, I don't know, if you guys remember how it's like it's too expensive. - Yeah, probably. - Like you're paying. - Yeah, so I'm gonna be like you could do it lower the rent. I don't know what else they could do. You can't make it. You lowered it by like a lot, would you say? - Yeah. - Tell her, give her a number. And then she won't need it. And that's that, end of conversation. - It's crazy that almost everything in the world is negotiable. - I wouldn't say that. - What is not? - Like you can't just go to like Urban Outfitters and be like I will do 10. I'll give you 10. - I promise you. - There's no, you can't do that at like a corporation. - You think the, you think the 16 year old cashiers that Urban Outfitters wouldn't take a little bribe for you to shoplift, they're shoplifting. - I believe that they are really strict there. Like that's the type of place where like you, those people are like taking their job very seriously, yes. - No, they're not. - I disagree. - No, I really think that you can get it. You can get, I got, I'm trying to think of something else I negotiated. I just love saying I'll walk. I'll walk. - I love when, like I would love to watch you do that. I'll walk and then I'm sure the person's just like, okay, bye. - I just, I think in some sense of the word, everything is negotiable. - Okay. I disagree. - Give me another example. - Your bill, the hospital. - I'll walk. - Okay. - And it's like, okay, we'll send you the bill. - That's a perfect example. Healthcare is negotiable. There's so many bills I haven't paid from the doctor. - That's not negotiable. That's just you committing negligence. - No, it's not. Because they keep giving me $28 discounts month over month. Please pay this. And I'm like, no, I'll walk. - I guess the only example of all walk that wouldn't work as if you're the hospital because you broke your legs. - I am like in alignment with you that like I'm also not paying those, but it's not, it doesn't feel like a negotiation. - Well, someone, the price is getting changed. The rent is too damn high. - I don't know, man. The price is a nasty. You thought we wasn't gonna steal a bus? Well, I just did three of those in a row. That was pretty good. - I didn't recognize any of them. - I know. I've been online recently. - I am so proud of myself. - Yeah. - And this is so sad to even say, but I'm so proud of the amount of TV I've been able to watch recently. - Really great. - Just because it means my attention span is coming back a little bit. - Total. - 'Cause you know, I couldn't do something at anything longer than the time. - You know, it's negotiable? Your attention span. - Okay, sure. - Can I watch Rooster? - Yeah, what'd you think? - I mean, I just love Steve more than life itself. - He too. - He's looking good. - He? - Listen. - Looks really important. - My mic is limp. It's slipping away from me. His looks are the least important thing about him. - Yeah. - Looks freaking incredible. - Do you agree with what I said about it being like kind of a hybrid character about like him being a little serious, but a little bit kind of Michael Scott? - Yes, 'cause there's like a sadness there that I didn't, that Michael didn't have. Michael was more delusion and this character is more like always a little bit like broken. - I would say that looking deeper, Michael Scott did make me more upset on a deep, deep, I'm depressed level just because of the delusion, but like he could tell it was like, "Oh my gosh, 40-year-old virgin, IRL, tight beat." - No, Michael, I think Michael was not a 40-year-old virgin. - Well, when you like, I don't know that something made me very, very deeply upset about Michael Scott. - Yeah, of course, but like, it's a different upset. It's like, it's hard to explain almost, isn't it? - It was like, I want you to continue living in this delusion, but the world doesn't say for you, Michael Scott. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I wouldn't want someone normal to go over to, "Oh my God, he's been in every movie." That is a perfect example, like a dinner for schmucks. I wouldn't want Michael Scott to go to the dinner for schmucks. - Yes, no, Michael Scott is like a little like clueless, whereas this guy is like more like intentionally sad. - I wonder if Steve Carell could ever get into this studio. - That's someone that I would-- - He's promoting this show. We've been promoting it for free. - No, Connor, I love you and I love this podcast. We can't get Steve Carell. - I'm gonna put, I'm gonna put it out there. Steve Carell is coming on the podcast. - Well, let's just go on podcast. He went on Amy Polar's podcast, 'cause that's Amy Polar. - We are almost there. - No, baby. You're like doing Michael Scott's delusion. - We're almost there. - Come on out. - But I mean, I just, I would watch anything Steve is in. I'm not a thousand percent convinced with the show yet, but Steve's just incredible and I would watch anything. - Courtney's in it, our friend. - I just saw that. I know, that's insane. I actually didn't know that. But it was still when I saw her, I was like, whoa. - When I promoted the show, I didn't know that. - I was really like, whoa. - I know, she's so good, she looks so good in that. Other TV, do you realize Euphoria comes out April 12th? - And no one cares. - Why? Well, they released the poster and it fully looks like one battle after another. I was like, oh, this is like a joke and it was pop based. - I didn't even see that. - It's really funny. It's like desert themed and it's like Zunea at the top and then like Jacob already on the side like, yeah, like look at this. It doesn't, that's not Euphoria. - Oh, that's not Euphoria. It's too light. Oh my God. - It's like, I can't. - Not. - Why is that so big? - You know what it feels like? None of these people filmed at the same time type vibe. - Yeah, they know they're all, yeah, totally agreed. They're all photoshopped in there from a different timeline. - Right. - And I like, you know what I wanna do? - What? - I wanna start season one again. This is what I did when season two came out. I wanna watch season one. May God have mercy at the top. It's not a movie, it's not Dunkirk. - No, look, Jesus saves. - There's gonna be something really religious about it because also you gotta have faith as the caption. - So I'm telling you to be here. - Did they graduate high school? I'm really not following. - Yeah, this is a, there's a big time jump. - There's a time jump, okay. I think what I liked about it was that they're all in this like little town. - I'm sure they're all still there. - They're in the desert and-- - Where the hell did they live? - It's impossible to say. - Oh, it tastes like small town, USA. - Okay. - But it didn't seem desert vibes, so I don't know how they all ended up in like Arizona. - This is the last season confirmed, right? - 100%, there's no way they could keep going. - East Highland, California. - Oh, and it definitely was giving California, okay. - Okay. - Okay. - Can I tell you what else I've watched? - Yeah. - Jury, duty season two. - I didn't know it was out. - Jury, duty, season two, that's a really good question. - What? - It's a good question. - You don't know if it's out and you watch it? - No, you said it's a good. - I said it's it out. - No, you said it's good. - Oh, wait, no, it is a good. - Is it cake? - I don't know. And here's what I'll say about it. First of all, it is insane that they manage to find somebody else who is the same exact level of like good as Ronald was. - Is it a girl or a boy? - Boy, his name, Anthony. - Okay. - I don't know how they found someone else that is just like so pure of heart, but whoever is casting the heroes hats off to the chef. We've got another Ronald on our hands. One of the greatest guys you'll ever meet. This season is, it takes place at a company retreat. So he's hired as a temp as someone's assistant and then he comes on the company retreat. And then the guy who's assistant he is has to leave pretty immediately. So he's pretty much in charge of this company retreat at a company that he started out like one day ago. - It's a show brilliant. - But it is so much more scripted than jury duty season one was. Jury duty season one was very much like slice of life at the beginning and it didn't start to get ridiculous until like episode four, when they were like James Morrison's taking this massive shit and the Noah and Jeannie are soaking and like all this crazy stuff started happening. Like episode four, they are throwing him into the deep end right off the bat episode one and they're having like multiple insane things happen each episode and it's almost like too much. It's like so unrealistic. I would be like I'm on a TV show within five seconds. - Really? - And they're also just like, they're just trying to create the office. It is very much like the office. They're doing like so many scenes that like Michael Scott himself like was actually in. Like verbatim pretty much. So am I laughing a lot? Yes, but it's like too ridiculous. - Yeah. - Like jury duty season one was like believable. And then, but this one it's like, uh-uh. I would clock being on a show pretty immediately. But it's, I'm still obviously entertained. But I've rewatched season one. - I'm really drawn to the guy in the hat here on the left. - So he is the boss who had to leave immediately. - Oh, that sucks. - After doing something that Michael Scott did. And that's what I'll say about that. - Okay. - He was kicked out or? - He know he left. He vacated on his own free will due to public embarrassment that he inflicted upon himself. But more of the news.
stories that I went back and watched season one. That's the best thing I've ever seen in my life. It's really brilliant content. I would recommend going back and watching that. It was even better the second time. Does this feel like Nathan for you? Because it's so. No, because Nathan for you wasn't scripted. Any part of it really. Oh, that's true. This feels really like they scripted a million insane things and they're doing them all. I see. But I would go back and watch season one if anyone's listening because it's so brilliant. James Morrison. He's so good. I had that man needs to do more comedy. His character and jury duty is one of the greatest characters of all time. He's so good. He's so good. Remember him rehearsing for Lone Pine the entire time? Yes. Incredible. He's so good. He's so good. I have nothing else to say besides he's so good. Me neither really. What else is there to say about James? Besides he's freaking cast James Morrison. I walked by him and look at the Grove last month. Very early. Really the only two people in the world in that moment. It was awesome. The Grove would be a great place to be whenever everyone else dies. It was literally like when before people are awake. Yeah, it was me and James against the world. He was looking anywhere but at me. I was like laser-beamed. He was looking at the sky. He was right. Appreciate it, man. I would do the same thing if I was James. I'm not doing eye contact right now. Well, I started watching TV on the treadmill when I had run on treadmill. It's so awesome to do. Which made me feel sad because it was like really I used to listen to music but now the easiest way to pass the time is like just more screen time. But they used to be like no screen time vibes. But it's so easy to run when you're watching TV. I started watching DTF St. Louis with Jason Bateman. Who's Velma OG Velma from Scooby-Doo? Lindsay Something. Linda Cardellini. Linda Cardellini. And David Harbor. He's so cancelled. And I don't know, Pedro Pascal, I have not been introduced yet. Richard Jenkins, I have. Joy I have. It seems really good. It's good like mystery vibes. If anyone likes mystery murder vibes but also like with like a like there's comedy and sex. Ooh, that sounds really good. It's down to fun. Who's having sex? I'll just give you a promise, vibe. Yeah. So Jason and David are like in kind of sexually frustrated later in life married kind of dead end outside of St. Louis like suburbs. And they're married to each other. No, no, no. David is married to Linda and Jason. Jason, I don't know. But there's an app called down to DTF. Is Jason married? I can't remember. I can't remember. Okay. I think so. I think they're both in marriages. Yeah. Look, that woman plays something with the same last name as him. The blonde. You haven't seen much of her. But basically Jason, he's like slimy in this show. It's very unsettling. And David's kind of like a big doofus. Big horny doofus. And he's the BHD. Yeah. That would be a good book. Right it. The big horny doofus. Yeah. Brooke is like extremely like accolated novelist and I'm writing the big horny doofus. Hey, guys, my new book came out. It's about David Harbor. Big horny doofus available for 25% off at Barnes and Noble for limited time. It's actually completely free. I'll pay you to take it. So they basically both download this app. That's right. I think I'm on episode two. But they both download this app and they're going to get murdered. I don't know. Yes. But I don't know. But it's good. It's like very dark. That sounds funny. Like I'm very new to it. So as soon as like people watch it and it's like this sucks. I'm like, keep in mind, I'm like 42 minutes in. I remind you of the other that dark comedy about the podcast that I loved with Chris Messina. Haven't seen. I talked about that for so much. The name is escaping me. And the woman from Big Bang Theory. Big Bang. Big Bang. Based on a true story. Yes. It reminds me of that. Reminds me of that. This seems like that it's a little less it's like less kitschy. It's like actually genuinely dark because this was murder. This one's filmed in like a very blue lens. Like it's always dusk and raining. Okay. Like twilight. Yeah. Whoa. Yeah. That's that was you. I don't like that voice at all. Should we shift gears? Yeah. They just raised the inlet. We're done talking about the war after this. I'm done. Maybe they on on the 20th of March, they raised the enlistment age to 42. No. The day after I was like, I'm going to be enlisted. They there is it. 42. Yeah. And they eased up on the marijuana usage rules, which means to me, they don't have enough people and they eased up on the mental health questionnaire. Wow. So that's not like ideal. But I am done talking about the W big W the big W theory. Yeah. So it was the previous ceiling was 35 years old. I thought I thought it was 20. 25. Oh, maybe I misread. No, I don't know. Maybe I'm just like shake and maybe that's why I can't be put to use. Anyways, I am flying out today. The last. Yeah, where are you going? I'm going back to New York. No, there's no way. Oh, God. Yes. Why? You're coming back here next week. I'm booked. Wow. I can't do what you do. I'm bead. And it's been a it's an amazing time to fly. It's fabulous. Are obviously I've seen TikToks of the airports being like overflowing out into the parking garage. Everyone walk, don't run to the airport. Is it fake? It is absolutely amazing. No, I mean, it is fake in this sense. Like the airports that we are seeing that are just like, Oh, this is so bad. This is so bad. Like, there's lines. There's lines. Like, look, now like ice has to work at the airport. And that's on purpose because they're trying to privatize these airports so that they're showing you the airports that are out of control so that they can privatize TSA. And they can break. It's like an anti-union first. Where did you get that information? It's true. Like the San Francisco airport. I believe is like a private. No, it sounds good and smart. I'm just like, no, where did you get that information? It's like public. It's just public. It's just public because they've been actively trying to and that's why people are quitting TSA because they're like, you won't pay us. They're in the government shutdown. And now they're like, well, then we'll shut down in airports. They're like forcing people into a corner. Sounds like all good things. Yes, I can't wait to go to the airport later four hours early. I don't mind being a therapist. No, I know. I don't like waiting in lines as my issue. Yeah. A guy like you loves them. No, my issue is like TSA objectively pretty important job. You don't pay the people enough. I don't get it. I also don't understand why anyone would still work without getting paid. Beats me? I think it's like the problem out of there. Unless I'm getting paid my wages that I earned later. Or in advance. I'm like, I'm confused. I'm confused. Let's incentivize the people that are ensuring nothing goes wrong on your flight with a little cash. No? No? Yeah. Like some sort of benefit. I know. I really am confused. But in fact, let's put people that we're not trained to work this job. Yeah, I'm not super excited to fly. It's very much like being like, let's get the urban outfitters employees to work TSA. They're really hard. Like they're well, you know, as I've spoken about, they are pretty strict. That was a bad example. I'm sure if you work in urban outfitters, it's not like a dig at you. Although like it does read directly and it is word for word, a dig at you, but it's not. It's like a made up character in my mind. Understood. You're great at your job. I'm sure I've never met you, but I know your heart. But good news. This came out this morning. I'm really excited about this. United is offering entire rows now. I saw that as lay flat rows in the back, which I promise you, I promise you, is better than first class. Can any time I've gotten a full row and you're able to lift the arms and you can lay that way. You're actually flat, not like a lay flat seat in like a first class. Look at this. And you can extend the footrest up. How much does that run you? They haven't released details. Knowing United, it should be about $12,000. Yes. But they had to do this because if you have a 4 p.m. flight, your flight's probably going to be delayed to about 11.30. 12 a.m.
so that you will be sleeping overnight on your flight from Los Angeles to about San Francisco. - Understood. - And it does look nice, cuddling with your loved one. - Yep. - I don't get the details like it's someone like one of the seats and then your lay flat is like you have to be curled up into a cannonball. - But I will say, you know, I'm a big fan of JetBlue Mint. - Yeah. - If I could turn my bedroom at home into the JetBlue Mint pod, I would. - Really? - Do you sleep good in pod? - I sleep so good in pod. Like I want to curl up into the smallest ball that I possibly can and be contained when I sleep. I think I'm gonna get a net. Like a canopy bed is what I meant. That I can draw. - I've never done that. I've never done JetBlue Mint. - Oh my God, you should. - One day. - And they give you these chopsticks, which is awesome. - I think a little goody bag, you know. And it is a Dr. Dennis Crowe's chapstick. And I love that shit. - He's Dennis Crowe's. - Dr. Dennis Crowe's. - Sorry. - One of those skin care lines. I'm sure he's a Dr. too. We're she. - Good catch. - Yeah. Thank you. - Women can be doctors. - So can Dr. Pepper. - The doctor was his mom. - The pilot was his mom in JetBlue Mint. The pilot could be a woman. - Yeah. - Yup, yup, yup, yup. - Anyone can be a woman, a woman. - Just don't tell me. - So I feel safe on the flight. Oh my God. - But I'm just. - Stop. - Stop. - I'm joking. - That was a good one. - Okay, like stop, I'm sweating. You guys stop. - It isn't packing up in the back. Just like, don't throw me under the bus. She's pissing your pants back there. Like, okay, woo. I'm gonna change subject. Did you see? There was a young man who kept thinking that he saw his dog in commercials. And he's like, that looks just like my dog, right? - I haven't seen this. - Okay, so he's like watching these commercials. He's telling his friends, like that. I swear to God, like my dog. I wanna do like this DNA test. I wanna figure out what's going on 'cause I promise you that's like, look exactly like my dog. Like has to be a sibling. He finds out. His dog walker has been taking the dog to auditions and getting paid 'cause the dog's been on commercials. - Wow. - Wow. - Yes. Is that not Kramer? - Is that Kramer? - Like taking dogs, like I started a dog working, or like, like Nathan for you. - Yeah, that's crazy. - Whoa, I almost passed out. - I have something stuck on my throat again. - Come on. - Come on, come on. - Come on, come on. - I can't, it would be really bad. - Okay, well that was just-- - That's why. - That was one example of something crazy that I have. The second thing is my Nissan Centra does not have Bluetooth. So I have been listening to almost exclusively radio and I'm loving the radio. I'm outspoken radio, fan of radio. Now, the talk shows is what I've missed. And the original podcast is the radio talk shows. - Yeah. - And it's like Molly and Mike in the morning, right? And they do like calls in. And this guy calls in and he says, can you help me out here? I have had a crush on this girl from my work. We've known each other for a while. I took her on a date and it just so happened to be my birthday that I took her out. And then she ghosted him after. And like she's being cold at work. And the guy on the radio, an example, I don't know if this is actually Mike, is like that's so rude. And the girls are like, I would be so freaked out if you, you know what I mean? - That's an interesting one. - Why would you go out with someone like first date with someone on their birthday? I'd be like, where are your friends? - Well, see, making it a big deal that it was his birthday? - I'm sure he was, like not knowing the guy at all. And I didn't get, I was getting out of my car right when they called the young woman. So I didn't hear her side. - Oh, shit, I would have loved to hear that. I mean, I think it's totally dependent on the guy's behavior. If he mentioned his birthday, how many times he mentioned his birthday? - I think I'd be weirded out if I found out, halfway through that it was someone's birthday. Like, and we're just like sitting there and it's like, why didn't you say that? But I'd also be weirded out if it was like, this is my birthday party, this is my birthday dinner. - That's weirder. I think the ideal is like, he would like, he would come up in conversation naturally. And then I'm like, wait, what? And he's like, I just like really don't care about my birthday. Like I don't really like to celebrate. So I just like to, it's just like a normal day. That's fine, like a guy that like doesn't care about his birthday is good. You know, you don't want a guy that's like, it's my birthday party. I'm turning 35. Like, that's the last thing you would want, you know? So it could actually even be great that you have a guy that doesn't care about his birthday. And it just happens to come up naturally in conversation. - I have a feeling-- - So I think that's fine. - I have a feeling the way that this was delivered is that the guy was like, there's no one I'd want to spend my birthday with more than you. - And I have a feeling he was like, making his birthday a big deal, which is an act of turn off when a grown man is like, it's my birthday. My ideal situation would be like a dinner for my birthday. And no one talks about it. - Completely. I am coincidentally reading a book right now, a romance about a radio station, a love station. This guy hosts like a love callin' type of show. And this, basically this little young girl calls in and it's like, I need help with my mom. And then basically this whole, like that moment becomes viral and then the mom ends up becoming like part of the show. And she's like 29, she's like a teen mom. And they're about to fall in love. The radio host and the teen mom that went and had a viral moment on the radio show. But I'm reading a radio show romance right now. - That is crazy because you saying that just now, like I made me remember that the radio people are people. Like I for some reason was thinking they're just like a voice. They're people that worked at the radio. - They're completely people and they're about to fall in love which I'm really looking forward to. - I wonder if anyone that thinks that we're just a voice. - Like an AI bot? - 'Cause we live here in the studio. - It's like when you think you're, when you see your teacher outside of school and it's like, what are you doing? - Yeah, you're supposed to be me. - You sleep in school. - You sleep at the school. Well, I would see my kids out of the classroom. They would be like, not themselves. They were so taken aback and disturbed. - What is that phenomenon? - It's like, what are you doing? You don't exist. I think kids compartmentalize their lives so much that like seeing one part of their life in another makes no sense. Like I don't exist to them outside of the classroom. You know? - Yeah. - So. - I do know. - That's what I'm talking about. - Willis. - Hi Willis. - Okay. - Okay, I know. I don't really have it much out, do you? - I have actively nothing we went through my whole list. - Me too. - Well, besides this one tweet that I thought was really funny this week. - How about you share the tweet with us with the parting words of wisdom? - This woman tweeted that her daughter's teacher called her and said that your daughter talked so much. We moved her next to the non-verbal student and the non-verbal student speaks now. (laughing) - That's really good. - That is probably the most amazing thing I have ever heard. It reminds me when my parents would be like, you'll never get kidnapped because the kidnapper would return now. - Yeah. - Oh, that's really, I would be like. - Talk too damn much. - Like if my kids teacher called to complain and that way I'd be like, that's my girl. - Yeah, of course. That's my future podcaster. - That's like have you ever heard what Tristan's teacher said about him? - I remember there was something that was said. I don't remember who I was. - Is he, what was it? Do you remember? - No. - I think it might be his Instagram bio. - Hi, check out my new purse. - Ooh. - You like that. - Hi, Cherry season. - Hi, Cherry Bagu. Let me see. And if I can't find it, I can't find it. - You can't find it. - Is he, you've got it? Why I need disruptive intolerable dramatic. - That's perfect. - Yeah. - That's him. - Yeah. And he's so cute. - Which reminds me about this young man, is that we are going on tour. We have some live shows coming up. So if you want to come to our live shows, I'm just gonna read off what we're going, really quick. - Are we, can we still have stage fright or not? - We will be in San Diego on the third of April. - Woo! - That's next week. We'll be in Irvine, California on the eighth of April. - Oh, yes. - And we'll be in Sacramento, California. - Come on, scream. - On April 11th. And the pre-cell code for Sacramento is Chumai. - Is Chumai. - Chumai, the pre-cell code for San Diego is BNC. And that's on our-- - That's Chumai. - They've been you today. - Oh cool. - Oh cool. And that's on our link tree. At the link is in bio. And Tristan and Channing will be there with us. And which is a good reminder to make, I have to go pee. - So bad. - So. - They cased. - They cased. - Love you all, see you in the bonus. - They cased and make love. - Bye. (audience cheering)
Podcast Summary
Key Points:
The speaker is deeply unsettled by recurring dreams involving their mother attempting to possess or manipulate their family, which they believe reflects real emotional and subconscious fears.
They feel these dreams are significant and symbolic, especially since their mother recently texted them with an oddly scripted, impersonal message, reinforcing their unease.
The individual is considering starting a dream journal to better understand and process these intense, recurring dreams, which have become a central part of their mental state.
There’s a noticeable gap in how society interprets dreams—people dismiss dreams about personal trauma or danger (like a mother trying to possess a family), while finding humor or meaning in others, such as hair falling out.
The conversation shifts to a fascination with submarine fiber optic cables, which carry nearly all global internet data and are vulnerable, raising concerns about digital infrastructure and human dependence on fragile physical systems.
The speaker expresses frustration with technology reducing human experiences—like customer service interactions or emotional connection—and advocates for more hands-on, creative, and human-centered experiences.
A key emotional moment involves a critique of a media event where a comedian’s offhand remark about a person’s past is perceived as disrespectful, highlighting the tension between public perception and personal truth.
The discussion ends with a reflection on personal growth, the value of rewatching older content, and the importance of journaling to track emotional and psychological shifts over time.
Summary:
The speaker shares a deeply personal and unsettling experience of recurring dreams in which their mother is portrayed as manipulative and attempting to possess their family, which has caused significant emotional distress. This fear is compounded by a recent text from their mother that feels inauthentic or AI-generated, amplifying their sense of unease and distrust. The dream content prompts the speaker to consider starting a dream journal as a tool for self-reflection and emotional processing.
They note how society often dismisses dreams involving danger or trauma while finding meaning in more trivial or humorous ones, highlighting a disparity in how personal experiences are valued. The conversation then expands to a broader awe and concern about the physical infrastructure of the internet—submarine fiber optic cables that carry most global data—emphasizing their vulnerability and fragility despite their critical role in modern life. This leads to a deeper critique of technology’s impact on human experience, including the erosion of real emotional connections in service interactions and the loss of hands-on, creative experiences.
The speaker advocates for more tangible, community-based, and human-centered activities—like building a bear or learning from an expert in person—over digital, passive engagement. The discussion concludes with a reflection on media representation, personal relationships, and emotional growth, underlining how small moments—like a teacher moving a student to a different seat—can have profound and unexpected impacts. These interconnected themes point to a broader anxiety about reality, control, and personal agency in a world increasingly shaped by technology, systems, and unconscious influence.
