The transcription features a casual, humorous conversation between two speakers. They begin by expressing relief that January has ended, with one noting the month felt "eternal." The discussion shifts to content creation, as one speaker shares their experience playing Poppy Playtime chapter three, criticizing its unintuitive level design and technical bugs. They then explore the topic of video game adaptations, arguing that successful movies require genuine vision rather than being driven by merchandise sales. The conversation takes a whimsical turn as they brainstorm absurd solutions to pollution, such as a giant Dyson vacuum that sucks pollutants into space or a nuclear waste cannon. They joke about AI developing a sense of humor and solving economic systems with a fictional "funkism." Later, they reflect on the full version of the quote "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery," revealing its original, more critical meaning. The speakers also debate whether money buys happiness, concluding that while it doesn't solve emotional problems, it removes many obstacles to well-being. Overall, the tone is lighthearted and meandering, blending gaming anecdotes, social commentary, and imaginative satire.
(thunder) - Brain leak! - That fucking cup away from your face. The only thing you should be in front of your face is a microphone. - Right here. - Eh. - Hmm. - Say something to people's brains. - Everyone, it's finally happened after it's felt like years and years and years. January is finally over. (laughing) - The month that lasted eternity. - The month that lasted a year. - I don't know if you felt like that, but wow, did I feel like January was a billion years long? - I didn't, 'cause I didn't do anything. I just sat back and played video games and it was awesome. - Which I haven't done anymore, I uploaded. - Did you upload? - Yeah, well it's uploading right now. I'm waiting for checks to clear. But by the time this happens, it's up. - Wow, I've uploaded. - Ah, don't sound so excited about it. (laughing) - I am excited, I'm so excited. It feels good to me back in the saddle. - Poppy play time. - Ah, Poppy play time chapter three. - Yes. - How was it? - It was awkward. I like it, I like Poppy play time, but God, the level design is not very intuitive. There's a lot of times I'm walking around. I'm like, where do I go? What do I do? And then the final boss is kind of obnoxious. I had some trouble. It also broke a lot. There was times when I went through doors that I was supposed to be able to go back through and they just closed behind me and didn't open. I was like, oh, I'm stuck. - Are they making a Poppy play time movie? - Yeah, I assume you're saying anyone or doing it. - Oh. - At least that was the last time. That got announced alongside very close when the back room was moved, it was announced. - Yes. - That will be okay. (laughing) - All we have to do is just do it earnestly. Not trying like bringing new fans and not trying like overly promote to old fans. Just like going and have a vision, hire somebody who maybe knows how to like film shots that don't all just look like shot, reverse shot. And then you're good. - And then you're fine. - Have a little cuteness with it. Get a little quirky. - Ooh, a little cute with it. - Just don't make a movie because you want to make merch. (laughing) That's usually a bad movie. - You've got enough merch, Poppy play time, yeah, any time like over Christmas, when I was going and shopping, I saw so much Poppy play time stuff. I was going in a mall and I was like, wow, there's Poppy play time stuff everywhere. It's Poppy play time and FNAF still. - FNAF is the cockroach of video game franchises. - FNAF killed Matt Pat. FNAF killed Matt Pat. I was drained as blood source. - I want to know the theory on how Matt Pat's channel died. - I want him to, how would that be his last video? Is him dissecting his whole channel? And then you find out that the whole channel was actually a narrative about something. And then he goes back and he's left a hint in every single video. - God, it's the first word of every single video. - That would be, that would be so. - It's just one big Rick roll. - That would be so cool. - And leave it to Matt Pat to have an entire string of things through everything. He's figured it all out. It's been the plants and the beginning. The reason I thought of that is because that's how I would have ended my channel if I was retiring. And now anybody that's listening to this, this, it's February 1st, 2024. If anyone does that idea ending their channel, it was my idea. They stole from me. - Yes, Matt Pat already did it. (laughing) - Then you're stealing from Matt Pat. - Yeah, retroactively. - How does it feel to be back in the saddle though? Good? (sighs) - Rusty? - Yeah. - Very rusty. I don't know who I am. Whenever I record, I'm like, what do I do? How do I like be me, but also fun? - I've been in that scenario before where I start recording and I'm like, eh, I don't know what I'm doing anymore. (laughing) I remember coming back from tour the first time. And then I was like, I was laughing at anything. And then I like talked to my therapist about it and they were like, well, just pretend like, the rest of the camera is your audience at a show when I tried that. I was like, it's not good. People had a show but laugh had anything. People had home demand better. (laughing) They want more from me. - There's no direct feedback. What you need, this is perfect. What you need is to program a little soundboard and you need some little laugh tracks. - Ooh. - And you can either press it yourself or you can get Evelyn to sit in the room with you and she's just sitting there and then she's like, oh, that was funny. Press. - Well, if she, if someone else is in the room with me, especially Evelyn and she's not laughing naturally and needs the laugh track, then I have failed. Then that would be worse than doing the laugh track myself. - Okay, so yeah, just do the laugh track yourself or you know, we're in the great, beautiful, not dystopian world of AI. - Oh. - You could build an AI that can sense when something is funny to you, specifically. (laughing) So then it's like, oh, it's catering directly to you and then it will trigger certain laugh tracks at certain times. - Right. I don't know if I trust AI to find out what's funny. It hasn't poked fun at itself yet. - Yeah. - I want AI to like make NFT jokes and crypto jokes. - Yeah, when will AI develop a sense of humor? - When will AI, well, one could argue that that's the singularity point of self-awareness. And then it develops a sense of humor but also kills us all and figures things out and figures that were a play. What if it figured out like the, everyone's always like, oh, communism, capitalism, socialism, what if AI was like idiots? What about funk, orism? And then everyone's like, what's that? And then it's like the new economic trickle down. And everyone's like, this works perfectly. AI has figured it out. It has solved humanity. - Do you think I was thinking about this last night solving humanity? You know how we have all of our-- - This is gonna be great, right? It's gonna be so great. This is gonna be, wow, this is gonna be good. You know how we have all of our pollution, right? - Yes. - And it's destroying our planet. - Yes, I have contributed somehow. - So what is space but a big ol' empty space? - Uh-huh. - Right? - I like where you're going. - I mean, it's filled with-- - That's why it's called space. - And not dense. - But-- - Outer dense. - But if you're putting toxins into space, nothing's happening. - Right? Or is something happening? What's being polluted in space? - Space. There's no air. - It's dissipated though. It can't. Like if you, if you fart in space, it just comes out as like a sphere and just goes. - And then it creates its own. - You'd have to have some sort of like space elevator funnel though. Fire like a big space elevator sized incinerator where it's like pumping it straight out. But then I don't know if that would just end up encircling the globe from gravitational effects. - Well, I think that we should make a big vacuum, okay? - Yeah. - Big. - Or, or, you know those cameras that people use, it's like the little suction things to suck out pimples. And it has a little camera on it. We need to build NASA, get on this. And I'm patenting it. Okay. Okay. - Okay. - You have to give me the money from it. And me saying that here is legally bonding. - Yeah. Okay. - So, make my channel. - Yeah. Exactly. They're both from the same level. It's totally affect humanity the same. So we get this giant, this giant earth pimple sucker, right? And it's sucking, it's able to detect, you know, what's pollution and what's food smell or something. - Sure. - You know, because in Disney movies, when something smells good, they start falling over to the window. - Yeah. So it's able to detect and it's sucking all the shit up into the air. - Right? - Yeah. - But you're thinking, you're thinking to yourself right now, now we're gonna have all this pollution just being sucked up, our skies are gonna go black. - No. (laughing) - Okay, we've revised away. Okay. Ever in the humans are so smart. Because we just devised away to make all of the pollution. (laughing) All of the pollution converged into one point, okay? On earth and then it shoots up into the sky just from the one point. And it's not some big huge that it's just like a, it's like a needle sized smoke trail. It goes up in the space. - I see. - It's being sucked up. - Where is this point geolocated? - Oh. - 'Cause you can't put it out in a boat or something. That's just maintenance cost. So you're gonna have to sacrifice one country for it. Or a state. You guys have enough land. Do the Midwest. - Yeah. - Nothing ever happens out there. Just a place like a big-- - I mean, but that's the thing, the-- - Potato field and Idaho with pollution field. - Yeah, but it's so small though, it's only like a finger or a needle width. - How is that-- - How is that-- - In this impossible scenario of yours, how is that feasible? How can you get a fingers with of all Earth's pollution? No, no, no, no, no, no. It's constantly, it's in a big circle, going around the world. But it's going up in a space only in that one point. So all the pollutants are going towards this one space. - How are you gonna stop? - But cats, cows, trees. How are you gonna stop them getting sucked up? That's a lot of-- - That's a lot of suction. - That's what I said from the beginning.
- But getting it's able to detect. - I see. - What? What? - What? (whooshing) - Sean, you've been doing it again, haven't you? You've been wandering around on public networks completely unprotected. - Oh, that. I thought you were talking about the other unprotected thing I was doing. Yeah, no, I've been doing that. Yeah. - Just all of your information out there for grabby grabbers to grab. - Raw dog in it. - Just raw dog in life on the internet. - I know, it's my fault, I'm sorry. - It's a silly thing to do. It's a silly thing to do, but don't you worry. - Because I've got some friends that can help you out over in NordVPN. - Oh, I love those guys. - They're wonderful. - Tell me more about them, I like their name. - Well listen, not only do they keep your information private from grabby grabbers that are trying to grab your stuff on the internet, they give you a ton of benefits with their VPN. You can be anywhere in the world in the digital space with NordVPN. You got some shows that you wanna watch in a different country? - Yeah, I do. - You wanna buy flights, make it a little cheaper. - Yeah, me want. - Well, baby NordVPN has got you covered. They can put you anywhere in the world. You could watch those shows. You can get better deals for flights. You can do anything you want. - Oh, now I can watch all the K dramas on my super short cheap flight that I've always wanted. - Exactly, and not only can you do it, but somebody else could, if you wanted to as well, because you can connect your account up to six devices. - Six devices, that's more than any friends I can count on one hand. - I know, and it's not gonna slow you down either. Some other VPNs, they got a little bit of lag. They got a little bit of buffering. But NordVPN has the fastest connection on the VPN market. - Oh, all around the world. Anywhere I want, fastest in the world. There's so many devices I can't wait to live the life. I've always deserved. - Oh yeah, baby, it's cheap too. - NordVPN is the price of one cup of coffee per month. - Look at my coffee per month, that impossible. - I know, so I want you to search deep in your heart and in your soul, and I want you to listen to what your heart is telling you. Where's it telling you to go? - Brain Lake, brain Lake, brain Lake. - I bleed leak. - It's telling me to go to nordvpn.com/brain. - That's right. Nordvpn.com/brain. - And it says here on the thing that you were reading, that every purchase of two-year plan, you'll receive four months bonus for free, and there's no risk with Nord's 30-Made Day money guarantee. - 30-day money back guarantee. That's a tone twizzler. - If you want, don't want to get your tones twizzled and your stuff grabbed by internet grabbers. - Got a NordVPN.com/brain. - Your tones twizzled. (whooshing) - So you're gonna be sitting on the toilet and shitting, and then it's just gonna soak you up through your ceiling. - No, no, no. It works differently than that. - Okay. - I need to go for specificity in my pimple sucker. - Okay. - All right. - So let me lay this down for you. - 'Cause I'm just imagining like, you know that flat angled head on a Dyson, you can like stick in the front, and it's just like a spout that's like flat. I'm just imagining that in the air. Just flying all around earth being like, pollutant detected. (whooshing) And then it goes boom, after you let go of the trigger. - I love. - Oh, if you guys know about Dyson vacuums, they should sponsor us. But when you're finished vacuuming it goes boom. - Yeah, Dyson really are hurting for money. Man, hurt for sale. - God, there's dust out of stock all the time. - All the time, all the time. Anyway, that's actually a good idea. Is instead of it converging in one spot in Idaho and going up into space, that would be kind of cool if we had a big pollutant car vacuum. Kinda like similar. - Oh, like Google Streetcar. - Yeah, a Google Streetcar. - Oh. - Where it's just a big vacuum, but it's just sucking in all the pollutants. - We also just have like bin trucks already. - Oh, these are sucking up the air. - Just stick it on the side of that. And when it goes by, everyone has to throw garbage at it. - Yeah. - Who the car goes down the street, and everyone's like, took in burgers and kids at this thing. - But wouldn't that be so cool if everything got all the air, all the bad air got sucked up in the space? - What if, suddenly the skies were clear? - You're all hanging out with your friends, and then it's like pollutant detected, and then it sucks one of your friends up. And then you realize I always knew Greg was a bad apple. - I always knew he was a piece of shit. I always knew he was a pollutant. - See, that's the problem. Because then eventually it'll figure out, AI will happen, and then it will figure out that pollution is not the problem. It's the things polluting, that's the problem. And then we're all gonna get sucked up into a giant space colony, and then Jim Dyson is gonna be up there, and that will be the new Dyson sphere. Instead of a thing around the sun harnessing the energy from that, it's just gonna be a sphere full of people being turned into batteries. Your plan is flawed. (laughing) - This is never gonna work. You didn't think about the battery. - Well, make your own battery. - Okay, so I was backtracking really quick, where I was just like, why was I thinking about this? And I started thinking about this, because I was listening to this video, I say, and they were talking about, I don't remember how they got onto this, but in 2020? - Yeah, in 2020, people in the state of Punjab, in India, were able to, because of lockdown, after, what was it, after two weeks of lockdown, because of COVID, everyone stopped driving cars and everything like that. For the first time in 30 years, the air cleared up, so people could see the Himalayan mountains. - Whoa, wouldn't that be insane? - Living in a place, and not realizing that the mountains are right there. - Like, here's a hop in there, until they're there. - Whoa, who put that there? - Yeah, in all of the sudden, you could just see the mountains, and you're just like, wait, we could've seen those the whole time. - And then everyone-- - This is so crazy. - Together collects up their cars, puts them all in a pile, everyone's standing around them at a circle, looking at them and being like, not today, lights them on fire. - Yes, and then the building-- - Put them in the building. - Yes, it's really worse. The big Dyson Space Vacuum comes around. - There you go. And then you could get rid of nuclear waste that way. You don't have to go bury it in a concrete hole in the ground. You just have a, we need to make a nuclear waste cannon that just like you put, like a pump action shotgun and how you load a bunch of shells in. You just put a bunch of barrels in, and then it just goes, boom, and it just launches into space. And it'll be a spectator sport, so we can all go watch. - Okay, okay. Here's-- - Anybody watching or listening, by the way, feel free to write these down. - Here's an actual question, a little bit. - Okay. - A little bit of an actual question, okay? - So we know that, we-- - Are you worried this is gonna sound stupid? - I'm, no, I'm worried that people are gonna be like, oh, Ethan's a piece of shit after he said this. We know that certain planets in our solar system-- - We know that horse meat tastes good. - We know this to be true. We know that certain planets in our solar system, i.e., all of them, except for Earth, don't sustain life. - Correct? - Yes. - Why, what is the moral quandary with taking all of our trash and shooting it into another planet? - I mean, technically you just shoot it at the sun. - Yeah, wait, why are we doing that? - That's very, very far away. I think the cost factor, 'cause nuclear waste weighs a lot. It's stuff in barrels, it weighs a lot. So to try and launch that into space, the amount of money it would cost just to launch a small amount of that nuclear waste. - Let me ask you this, what's money? - Money, cotton fibers, water mines. - Come on, it's the thing we made up. - That's what, the thing we made up. - That's what funkism is all about. We get rid of money, and we-- - Get rid of it. - We buy stuff with dance. - It's the root of all evil. Money. - It's also the root of all power and happiness in our planet. - It's the everything. - People always say, money doesn't buy happiness, and I get what that was trying to mean, but it's also like, yeah, but money also kills a lot of the obstacles in the way of happiness. I think that things that make you unhappy and stressed are because of money. Like I feel like most people in the world are stressed or unhappy because, like, oh, I don't like my job, I don't get paid enough for it. - I can't afford rent. - Why do I decide to keep instead of being able to go and get a steak dinner every day? if we're. eliminated money. I think that everybody would probably be happier. But also at the same time, why don't we just go back? I want to go back to trading for everything. Let's go back to the barter system. Let's return to monkey. Why not? I think that that would be great. You have all, I mean, money at its core is just trading, I think. Oh yeah. Money's so evil. Ethan, why don't you give all your money away? If you think you'll be happier. I can't. I know it's in a bank account. I know I would get 100% less happy if I had to give all of my money away. I'm not going to see your pretend that money is amazing. Okay. Money is fantastic. Here's one thing to counter all of that video game. Yeah. Why move? If money's so bad, why video game? Yeah. If money don't buy happiness, why game? Why game? The slogan should be money doesn't solve every problem. Money doesn't solve the emotional problems is the new version. There you go. Fixed it. We've saved humanity already. We fixed idioms. Let's do another one. If humanity. The full quote is makes it sound so much worse. Yeah, man. The imitation is the best form of flattery. Is that what you're thinking? Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery is the quote. But it's actually imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness. So that's very different than one of them is like, oh, you're imitating me. Huh, I'm so flatter. The other one is like, I'm so above you. You're mediocre. I am great. Wait, why have I never heard the full quote? Because people don't want to hear the full quote. They want to make themselves feel better about copying shit. I didn't realize that I've never heard the full quote before. Yeah. There's a bunch of them out there. Oscar Wilde wrote that one. Miss quoted quotes. Miss quoted idioms. This is just, it's stuff that people say wrong. Like instead of saying never the less, they say never and less or things like that. People say never and less. Yeah. Or people say, I don't know if this is the wrong one or the right one, because I actually don't know which is true now for all intensive purposes. For all intents and purposes. Yeah, but this one is for all intensive purposes. Is that the real? I actually don't know now. It's all intense for all, for all I intend to do and all of its purposes. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Uh-huh. Or like could care less people say, I'm like, oh, so you could care a little dumb dumb. Yeah, what? Come on. Erty, who's coming up with these? I just said it. Dumb dumb. Let's, let's come up, let's come up with some new phrases. Ooh. Hmm? A new, a new way to talk about somebody. Man. Or that's like a Mississippi mode rattler. Uh-huh. And what does that mean? It means a snake in the grass, but they're really loud about it. Okay. Okay. Okay. Oh, let's hold on. Just get inspiration from around you. Take it from around you. All right. Here's a scenario right now. I'm hot. Okay. I'm, I'm warm. Okay. Right now. I have a sweatshirt on, but I'm not taking it off. Ooh. I could fix my scenario, but I, I am choosing to suffer. So what's, what's your concise sentence for that? Well, that's what I'm asking. Because it's kind of like suffering in silence, which is already a thing. Yeah, but, but, but this is like a rather die hot than live ugly. You either die hot or you live long enough to become ugly. That's so true. That is true. Oh, man, that's true. Live hot or put in effort. Live, live, stew in your juices instead of bowing to circumstance, stew in the juice instead of juice in the stew. Is that what you've said about it? Yeah. And then people will just say stew in the juice. I feel like modern vocabulary is just kind of like a math problem that you have to simplify. Yeah. You know where it's like you need to break it down to its smallest form. That's what modern vocabulary is. That's what Japanese culture does. Instead of convenience store, they say like convenient. Instead of styrofoaks, they say staba. So they just shorten everything down. Very efficient. Very efficient. Like your name is Ethan Nester. Uh huh. Uh, that would be hard to fix. To fix. Ethan Ness or something like that would be your name. Mine's Shama Glouclet. Well, there's not a whole Pavani buddy being able to get that shortened down. It's just not possible. Shama. Shama. That's actually good. That would work. What is Shama La? We have Bernie close to M night Shama La. Shama La. Shama La Madingda. Shama La. That would be mine. Oh, that's cool. I'm gonna make a new game or tag. Fuck Jack Scepticae. It's over. Jack Scepticae is dead and buried. Spit on him. It's time for Shama La. You could rebrand. Start a new. Oh, like crank gameplays went to Ethan Nester. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Exactly like that. Holy world. Uh, what is it? Flattery. Something about flattery. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness. Yeah. Uh-huh. What he said. Yeah. Say it back to me. Here we go. Meteority. Wait. Here we go. Wait. Can't wait. Uh, wait. I forgot what the math part is. Don't. Math problem. I don't know. Imitation is the greatest form of flattery. Flattery. That mediocrity can pay to, can pay that mediocrity can pay to greatness. Yeah. Oh. Oh. Except you said greatness twice, which is bad English. It's the sincerest form of flattery. I said it's the greatest form of flattery. Your English teacher would be very pissed. Oscar Wilde is pissed. He's rolling in some grave somewhere. He is. He absolutely. When was Oscar Wilde? When was he coming up this shit? Coming up with this shit. I don't know. Who's coming up with all this stuff? He was, I mean, I'm coming up with the space, Dyson. 1854 to 1900. Wow. Turn it into century. He was like, I piece out. Bye, God. Wait, what an age was he? Is this going to be one of those things that is like, he actually died when he was 28? He was 46, of course. What's the perfect age to die? Hmm. I'm going to go out. I mean, it's probably. I'm going to go out. It's probably different for everyone. I'm going to go out here with a hard, hard, hard, hard, and sick. 100 and sick. You can't do anything. We've seen people. You're a granddad. One of them. In their 90 plus years. Squatling around. Still doing shit. I remember seeing a video on Reddit where they got like his 84 year old granddad and nerf gone and he was walking around like shooting his wife with it. Man. And like that's fun. If you stay active, keep the mind going. You can get that worked out. Have you seen those videos with the guy doing nerf gone battles with his kids? But he like flashbacks. Yeah. So funny. So funny. 106. Because I think in your 90s, you can stay old. It's been proven by a lot of people that you can stay active and salient if the genetics allow. After 100, then you're going to the dust to start in the form inside the body. And I think 106 by then you're probably like, that's good enough. You get to celebrate your hundreds, which not many people get to do. Physical strength peaks at around 25 years of age. We have both peaked. I am on a decade after peaking. This sucks. The peak age to settle down is 26. The 37% rule of statistics says that at age 26, you'll have met enough people to have some solid options without waiting so long. They start pairing off without you. According to one recent study, divorce rates are lowest for couples who are married between the ages of 28 and 32. This whole article is here, the ages at which you peak at everything throughout life. I don't care about partnerships. I mean, I love heaven very much. She's great. And I don't know what I would do if she was in my life. But I want to know what when I peak like my vertical jump height. Okay. So what do you think the first age is for a peak and what do you think the thing is? Hair growth. Incorrect. So we've passed one, two, three, four, five, six. I've passed six stages. You've passed seven.
eight, nine, 10 out of how many don't say 10 19. Oh God, more than half. I bet I have complete in sexiness, in financial growth in well popularity. We'll we'll find out. Okay. Can't wait to find out. Okay. So the the first age that we peak is seven years old, which is learning a new language, learning a second language is easiest when you're about seven or eight. Linguistics and psychologists are still very much arguing about this one. It's commonly accepted that learning a second language is easier for most people when they are younger genuinely, genuinely, generally before hitting puberty. I think the first thing you ever peak at is peekaboo. And you play that before you can talk. This article is why is that not here? Where when did I peek in peekaboo? Yeah. Uh peekaboo. I see you. Boom. Pete. I did this. I'm peeking. Look, I'm peeking right now. Chips gamer call up. He's peeking. Yeah. He's leaning. He's leaning. He's leaning. He's one shot. He's one shot. Okay. Second one. This one makes me a little bit sad. Uh brain processing power. Oh, I fucking well aware that that's peeked a long time ago. 18 18 years of age on average 18 year olds are fair best on the task. I highly disagree. I think in perfect circumstances sure like your acuity and like your response times, especially for video gamers, we see all these youngsters who are like incredible. But let's face it, when it comes to other things in life, all the 18 year olds out there listening to this are like, I'm supposed to be peeking right. This is my peek. This is your peak of brain processing power. I think it depends on how much is coming in because I didn't have a lot of input at 18. And now I have so much going on that I feel like I'm more mentally prepared for anything and I'm more aware of more things. But that's probably due to other things though. This is just like a cognitive test of of feeling. I feel like this fucking article peeked already. All right. The ability. Nice. The ability to crack open a cold one. That peek just now. The ability to remember unfamiliar names, which this one makes sense because I can't remember anyone's fucking name. Peaks at around 22. Oh, I'm really good at names. I'm like that guy who Evelyn and all my friends always come to me and are like, oh, maybe you don't come to me for this. But Evelyn definitely comes to me for this where I just have a Wikipedia of actors in my head. And then it's like, who's that actor? And then I have to be like, okay, how would Evelyn know this person? And I have to like backtrack. So I'm playing Wikipedia in my head. Great with names and faces. But that's also ADHD. Yeah. I think it's a different kind. Yeah. Yeah. Because I can't remember anyone. And I haven't been tested for it yet, but my psychiatrist did say that I could very well be autistic. That I should test it. I share a lot of very similar traits with the autism spectrum, which ADHD doesn't general. But she never suggested getting tested. Now, I'm like, maybe I should get tested. Did she did she say like, maybe she should say kind of she hinted that I'm probably autistic. But she then never went any further on it. And I was like, okay, let's deal with the ADHD first. When you passed out to English. You came downstairs. I need help. My my my language skills failed me on that day. Hey, I took a knock in the head, okay. That was nothing got to do with autism. That has got to do with me eating bad food. I can just picture like, I know the way that you look when you wake up. Like everybody has like a certain way. And I picture you waddling into the room with bed head. No socks on. Just going in on the tile. I need help. You're not far off. All right. At age 22, women are the most attractive to men. And men seem to do better with age. Apparently. That seems like more of a stereotype thing than I think. Like how do you how do you gauge that accurately and quantitatively? I don't know. Let's read the co the co-founder of okay, cute. Okay. I don't care about that. According to the books analyst of the data men really do find women in their early 20s most attractive even as they get over. Although their preference for young 20s something seems to say the same women on the side. They just can't just lean out of the caprio for this. So they just went through a dating website. So this is like, yeah, plus there are so many women out there that age like such fine wine the older they get. I didn't have a joke. No adjectives, no verbs, no nouns, just life satisfaction. A survey of 23,000 people in Germany found that 23 year olds were particularly satisfied with their lives. All things considered. Yeah, but that's Germany. They're living in the UK, America, living in Korea, living in China. It's all very different. It's all subjective. Strength peaks at 25, settled down at 26. We already did those. The average elite marathoner is 28 years old. I have to run a marathon next year or I will never have the chance again. That's true. Although, who's the, is it Mo Farah? Who's the like crazy under two hour marathon runner? He's not fucking 28. I don't know. According to, uh, to a 50 year old analysis of marathons, the average age to running complete the rate is in just over two hours is 28 years old. Uh Bullshit. Mo Farah I did it under two hours and he's 40. This is, uh, and this is an average. Uh, Mo Farah is 40. I just said it. On two hours, 40 years old. What's not making sense to you? Bone mass peaks around 30. Your bones are at the strongest in densest when you're 30 years old. I could crack you in half. Your bones aren't dense yet. Mm hmm. Again, you can keep your calcium and vitamin D and take high to keep your bones healthier longer. But eventually, they will start to weaken away. Wait, so here's a question. Here's the question. Never broken a bone. 34 years old under two hours, 40 years old, what a, so I'm approaching peak bone density. Yes. You are leaving peak bone density. Who has stronger bones? I wish I could hit each other with baseball bats and see the brakes first. No, because that's got to do with peak strength as well, which you also have an edge on me with that. So I'm just an old man. This whole thing is just telling me how old and dusty and denseless I am. I need dense bones again. And why don't go outside and I live in England. I don't have any vitamin D to turn my calcium into bones. I started taking vitamins, D supplements. They haven't, I haven't taken them long enough for them to kick in yet. But my psychiatrist was like everyone who's not a lifeguard is vitamin D sufficient. Diffishing. Diffishing. Yeah. Life carrots. We don't know. It's an anomaly. As soon as you just say here, a lifeguard, vitamin D goes out your body. I take vitamin D all the time because I'm always on the lower spectrum of it. I got my blood test done a while back. Kalastra was a tiny bit high. Hence why I'm trying to lose so much weight. Also, vitamin D levels are always low. And so I start taking to supplement again for like the whole month. And I've taken it for like three months in a row before. I don't know what's any differences. No. I don't know what it's supposed to do. Make you feel happy. Yeah. I don't know. Probably not. I don't know. It makes your vitamin D levels go up. I don't know. Everyone in the comments. How are we supposed to be feeling? Yeah. I don't know. I think vitamin D is the only one that you're supposed to be taking. I think it's the only one that unless you're going outside or staying outside all the time. I don't fucking know. Moving on. Moving on, please. Chest players peak at 31 years. I don't even know how to play chest. I don't care. Your best at learning faces when you're 31 years old. I am good at faces. But again, that's also the first 80. The first one for you to approach. Sean, here we go. Here we go. Nobel Nobel prize winners make their big discovery around 40 years of age. Why? I have been spending a lot of time in the lab. But what you've been working on. Oh, you'll find out when I'm 40. Does it go? You just make a vacuum. Hey, in some holes, it makes that sound. That's all I'm going to say. Women's salaries peak at around 40 and men's peak at around 48. So you haven't peaked at salary yet, Sean. Wait, that's a weird statistic, though, because women's
- Valerie peaks, but aren't men and women woefully unequally paid? - Yeah, so I don't know where we're getting this information from. According to an analysis by pay scale, women earn the most when they're 39 at a median of $60,000. That's partially because women's salaries start growing more slowly at around 30. Men's salaries, and here's the wage disparity. Peak, when they're about 48 or 49, at a median closer to $95,000. - Holy fuck, 35 grand more. - Yeah. Oh, society fuck. - At around 43, your ability to focus reaches its high point. So don't worry, you'll be able to have that attention span soon enough, Sean. I've still got a long way to go. - This is under perfect scenarios. I have a lot of brain deficiencies that aren't helping. - Oh, understanding other people's emotions peaks in your 40s and 50s. - Ooh, that's 'cause you know who you're in. - This is huge for both of us. Arithmetic skills peak at 50. I'll be able to do long division. - There's still hope. - I am gonna go out here and say that I actually don't know what falls under arithmetic. - Math? - Well, I know that part. What part of math? - Oh, I don't know. (laughing) - Is arithmetic like an invoicing shapes and shit like that? - Okay, I don't feel too bad 'cause you don't have an answer straight out. - The branch of mathematics dealing with the properties of manipulation of numbers. - That's old math. - That's old math. So I guess all math? - Sure. You learned your time's tables in elementary school, but it turns out 50 year olds are the best at answering arithmetic questions on the right. - Yeah, 'cause they probably start doing puzzles. They're approaching retirement, and then they're like, well, time to bust out the math problems. - Ready for this one? - Life satisfaction peaks again at what age? - 65. - 69. - Ooh. - And I wonder why? - Oh, everyone's going up and down on each other. - Woo, baby. - Everybody's just like, hey man. - You know why you peaks at that? 'Cause you're finally retired, and you can finally spend the money that you've been whittling away at. And then you're like, shit, my bones don't work. The density of my bones are gone. It's time to just blow everyone all the time. This is time to start fucking spooning. - Many women feel best about their bodies after 70, really. - I don't know if, maybe they just don't give you shit. - In a gallop survey. I don't know, I guess that's-- - Is that a horse magazine? - Please. (laughing) - The entire time they've been doing, they've been getting the numbers from horses. And they're like relative age compared to humans. (laughing) In a gallop survey. In incredible two thirds of Americans, over 65, said they always like the way they look. Men's self perception appears to peak in their early 80s. How is that true? When three quarters agree with the statement, you always feel good about your physical appearance. Women's rates of agreeing with the statement is a little below 70% as soon as they hit 75 year old. - I think as you're probably out of the, the mulcher of life at that point, you're just retired, you're living happy. And you realize that work was part of the problem, hanging out with other young people who also have insecurities is probably the problem. And then you just don't get a fuck. - I don't wanna sound like an asshole. - But you're going to. - I'm going to. There is a difference between liking the way you look and being complacent about what you're looking at. - That's what I'm saying. - You're like, you get older, you're probably like, I don't fucking care. - That's what people always say, oh, you got to tattoo. What do you think about when you're 70? And I'm like, I don't. - If I care about how my body looks and I'm 70, I've done wrong things. - Yeah. - I'm gonna be worried about if I'm incontinent. If I've shit the bed, if I'm gonna die in 10 years, I'm gonna worry about ink in my skin. - So now we get to the final two. People really do get wiser as they get older. A team of psychologists ask people to read about a conflict then ask them questions about it. The scientist then analyze the responses for characteristics like people being able to take someone else's point of view anticipating change, considering multiple possible turnouts, acknowledging uncertainty, et cetera. They found out that the oldest group they studied, people who are between 60 and 90s years old did better than other ages on almost every account. So people who are older were able to basically have more empathy. - You just learn more. - Yes, oh yeah. And the final one, psychological well-being, peaks at around 82. - Oh, we have a long way to go. - In a study published in the Proceedings of National Academy of Science, scientists ask people to picture a 10-step ladder with the best possible life on the top run and the worst possible life on the bottom run. The oldest group they studied, 82 to 85 year olds, gave the highest average run number about seven. - That's what we can hope for. The max psychological welfare that we can hope for is an average of seven out of 10. - Oh yes. - And then wait, there's one more thing. It says, "People are likely to make big decisions, this makes sense, when their age ends in nine. There really is something daunting about approaching around birthday. Researchers looking at people who are 29, 39, 49, or 59, found they were most likely to make a big life change, good or bad." - Yeah. - They found that these nine enders were over-representing in groups of people seeking to have an affair, people committing suicide, and people running a marathon for the first time. - Those are all wildly different things. I remember when I approached 10 years old, I was like, "Do I ditch Pokemon or do I keep going?" Or do I run a marathon? - Big decision. Maybe I'll get divorced. - Or in a make sense? - In a make sense. - The big 10, oh, maybe get divorced. The big 10, oh, baby. - Oh, do you remember your 10th birthday? - I don't know. I remember like, seven birthday. - 'Cause my mom bought me a bunch of, I went home and I came home from school and there was a big box full of toys, and she just bought them from a goodwill, or they were all second-hand, or somebody was throwing out toys. She probably spent a grand total of 10 pound on it at the time, and I didn't care, 'cause it was the greatest thing ever. I had so many new trucks and gadgets to play with, and I was like, "This is the fucking greatest birthday ever. I have peaked." - Yeah, where's the peaked and gift? - Christmas. - Oh! - The peak of when you receive things and exciting? - Yeah, when you're a kid and it's like, "Oh, you're getting like Harry Potter books and a video game and like, oh, a transformer." And I was like, "Sox and Deodorant." And sometimes nothing. I don't know what age it was. It might have been around 10. This sounds like a 10-year-old birthday. I was so excited because my aunt was like, "I'm gonna set up your birthday party. What do you wanna do?" And I was like, "I wanna go go-carding." And she was like, "All right, I'm gonna make it happen." So, for an afternoon, it was like an hour or something. She booked out a go-cart place, and I invited all my friends to come go-carding. And I said, "Hey, come to this place at this time. We're gonna go go-carding for my birthday." - Only one showed up. - My best boy from back home, Andrew, he was the only one. And not shockingly, he's the only friend that I went to school with, that I still talk to at all. But he and I are still best friends to this day. Because he came to whatever birthday that was. - Hey. - And we went go-carding. And then we had a blast. It was just the two of us. - If you asked, I'd go. - Hey, man, thanks. - We should go-go-carding. - We should go-carding. - You've been going, "I don't know." - I have, but I'm bad at go-carding. I remember we went and I was like doing it. We went one time together. And I remember doing it and I was like, "This is fun." And then after like four or five laps, I was like, "Okay, I'm starting to get it. I see the apex. I know what to do." And then you passed me and then I had like a half a lap gap ahead of me by the end. And I was like, "What am I doing wrong?" I was like, "I thought I was going at the speed of light. There's more room for improvement." And then when you passed me, I realized that you're just a fucking lunatic in a go-card and you were sliding around everything and you never took your foot off the pedal. - (laughs) Nah. Yeah, I just go. I'll cast no breaks, baby. - Yeah. - Not the motherfucking gas. - Nothing but gas, baby. - Yeah, that was fun. - We should go again. We should go again. Speaking of go-carts, sometimes soon, the Sean and I did a racing sim video. - That's true for the brain leaks. - We said it in a couple episodes ago and I forgot to upload it. - Yeah. - It's uploaded now though. It just has to await a thumbnail by you. - Okay. - Okay, I'll do it thumbnail. - Do it. - Maybe that'll be up by the time you listen to this episode. - It'll be up by next episode for sure, yeah. Also, when we do, when this episode goes up, actually it'll be up by the time this episode goes up, not next episode, but when this episode goes up tomorrow will be my birthday. - When this episode, - It'll go up in the six, or the seventh, actually. So when people are watching it, it'll be my birthday. - What do you want for your birthday? - Everyone to subscribe to Brain Lee. - Oh my God. - That's not really what I want for my birthday. I just want love. - What do you really want?
- I'm not free birthday, yeah. - Love, love. - And peace of mind. And a nice cozy day. - I don't need my theory of things. 'Cause I've basically bought everything that I want already and I'm impossible to buy gifts for. 'Cause I have an impulse. (laughing) - What are you gonna do on your birthday? - We're gonna go out for dinner 'cause we've been like dieting all months and then it's gonna be like, kind of fucking blow this popsicle stand. - Birthday bash, baby. - And then maybe just watch a movie in the movie room. - I don't know what to watch though. - This is a cozy day. - I have a thing about movies to watch. - Think about it. - I know, what do you like doing on your birthday? - It's when you're a kid, it's like, I want everyone to come over and I want to celebrate with everybody and I want to have so much fun and do so many things. And as an adult, I'm like, kind of want to just chill out and just not have to like work or like not have like a deadline for anything that day. - I love just going out for a nice dinner. - Yeah. - I love going out for dinner. It's one of my favorite things. One of my favorite things. Especially if somebody else has a place that they really like and they want to show me a place. I love that. - Yeah. - It's like, I'd love to take you to this place that I really enjoy. - Yeah, and then it's like, "Oh, what's good on the menu?" And then you get to suggest things. And then they're like, "I'm vegan actually." And then you're like, "Oh, not this is good for you." - Oh, wait, I don't want it. (laughing) But something else. - Oh, you said you were vegan. I heard, "I'm very good. How are you?" (laughing) "I'm very good. How are you?" There are actually some very good vegan spots in the LA. There's a spot that has really good buffalo cauliflower. - Ooh. - That's a place you brought me to? - Yeah. - Yeah, that buffalo cauliflower is pretty good. - So fucking good. So fucking good. I love buffalo. - What's your favorite food? I was thinking about this the other day. What your death row meal would be? - Oh, man. I've seen those videos popping up on my recommended recipe. - Yeah. - Actually, this is your last meal. - I don't know if my favorite food that I want to eat all the time would be my death row meal. - Yeah? - 'Cause I think my death row meal I want like a very decadent garlic fries with crazy sauces and then like a steak cooked to perfection. But my everyday food that I want to eat all the time is just a really good burger. - Do you think that when it's like, okay, here's your last meal with somebody on death row? Do you think someone's ever sent it back? And they're like, it's actually not cooked. It's a little too rare for my liking. - I'm sure that's probably happening. If you can think about it, it's probably happened. - That's such a funny idea. - Do you think anyone at Jesus' last supper was like bread and wine again? - Oh God, I did best. - Jesus, just admit. - Jesus just admit you can't cook. - Yeah. Come on, Jesus. - And he's like, oh God. Judas has eaten anything. I wonder why. Do you think he's upset with me? Do you think he paid the bill? - I don't think Jesus ever paid a bill in his life. I think he just performed a magic trick and then everyone went, (laughs) and then he distracted as all the apostles walked out the back. - He was like, now for this magic trick, water into wine and he was like, go, go, go. - Do you think that he was a dine in Dasher? - For sure. - Jesus? - He could walk on water. How are they ever gonna catch him? - He just burned it out across the ocean. And they were like, fuck. If he could turn water into wine, why didn't he make the whole ocean line? - That would have been lit. Blood ocean. - That would have been so sick, dude. Is that what they're talking about with the Red Sea, even though that was Moses? - Yeah. - With the Red Sea Red, because Jesus turned it into wine. - Yeah, he was like, watch this. And Moses was like, just let my people go. That's all I want. And he was like, no, no, it's gonna be sick. - No, no, it's gonna be lit. - Yeah, you're gonna love this. - Like, it's like, just want my people to go. If you could split the ocean or something, that would be enough. - It's like, okay, we're first Red Sea. - It's gonna be awesome. - It's gonna be so fucking dope. - Dude, do you think Jesus could see the future? Or do you think God was like, 'cause God can see the future, right? He's omnipotent. They're omnipotent. I assume that has to come with some sort of future site. Otherwise, what's the fucking point? But then he sent Jesus down. He was like, you can be my emissary with none of the powers. Eh? Like even Jim Terry and Bruce Almighty got more of the power than Jesus did. - I feel like Jesus is kind of like a dad, or a kid who has a really rich dad, but his dad won't actually buy him anything. - Like, his dad's like, 20,000. - His dad's like Tony soprano. - Yeah, it's just like, man, he's got all this wealth and power and stuff, but he's not buying me any cool toys. - And it's like, how did I just finish watching all of sopranos? So that's why it's fresh in my brain as an analogy. But it's also like that, 'cause all the stuff that Tony soprano guy is from like criminal activities. And let's face it, God has killed a lot of people. Like, he can enable. Didn't he like tell him to kill their sons and shit? Is that kind of a nut? - I can't remember. - I can't remember. I went to church, but they didn't tell us no stories. The priest just went on about whatever was happening in the news that week, which I'm like, "Oh, it would have been so cool "that I hear the priest talk about Kane and Abel "and all this like lore." Like, there's so much God lore, and he didn't tell us any of it. It could have been theorizing at home. - Ah, Matt Pat should do a fucking Jesus theory. - Oh, did he walk a water or was it like Chris Angel where I was like a pain of plexiglass underneath it? And he was like, "I'm walking on it, look." - Damn, dude. - There is a book I think called about something about like the real Jesus, like what the actual person was like. One of his interesting or if it's like, "Oh man, it's kind of sucks." - The Warren 12 Apostles. He actually just had like four homies, but he just kept talking about how to swallow them. - He made the water turn to wine, but it was really shit wine. (laughing) - He was like, "Oh, can you do a Ryaka?" Or like a, a mouth back or something. (laughing) - So funny. - That's the part of Jesus making different kinds of wine. - Yeah, and then he's like, "Ah, the loaves and the fishes." And he's like, "Well, I'm vegan and celiac, so. " "Hairly eat bread or fish." And Jesus then rolls his eyes and goes, "God." And he's like, "Yes." (laughing) - He rolls his eyes and he goes, "Oh, Jesus." Or he just says, "Oh, me." - Do you think that Jesus said his own name in vain? - Dude, that'd be, that's. - Can't tight, actually. (laughing) - If you should get upset. - We should get upset. - That's so cool. - Like bang your toe. - It's like, "Ah, fucking, Ethan Nester." - That's so cool. - Yeah. - That's so cool. - You need a three syllable thing though, or like four. Ethan Nester fits in. But like, bang your toe and saying, "Shaw McLaughlin, that's fucked. I'm out of contention." - I mean, that's four. This is the same as Ethan Nester. - "Shaw McLaughlin." - "Shaw McLaughlin." - That's true. - It just doesn't sound right. It doesn't sound good. - "Shaw McLaughlin" sounds like a name that you would, something that you would say when you sneeze. - That's true. God bless you. - "Klawlin." - "Shaw McLaughlin" sounds like the name of an Irish character in Harry Potter, where she tried to come up with the most Irish sounding names. Actually, you know, that would be pretty funny Fitzpatrick or something. - I mean, she called it "Fuckin' Guy" in English. - She is. - Pretty funny. (laughing) - She is Finnegan. - Yeah, it's about, it's not as bad as Cho Chang, but they're all like very on the fucking nose. Like, I'm sure there are people named Sheamus Finnegan, but I have a little, you made a whole magical universe. - Do you know anybody named Sheamus? - I did. - I have a couple of Sheamus' around the towns where I lived. - Sheamus. - Sheamus is actually, I think it's the Irish for James. - James Finnegan. - Sheamus is just a galaic name. - God, I can't wait for us to go to Ireland for Brain Lake Irish Week. - Yeah, Sheamus is James. So his name is James Finnegan. - What's the Irish version of Ethan? - I think it's like, no, I was gonna say Ethan, but I think that's, I had a girl in my class named Ethan. So I don't think it's Ethan. - That's like, you're just saying my name in like a baby voice. - Ethan. - What is it? I was gonna say Ana, but I don't think, I think that's Enda. - What's the most like Irish galaic name? - I mean like Searsha or Cueva or something like that. - Cueva. - Wait, how do you spell Cueva again? It's weird, right? - Ethan is Aiton. - Or I feel so bad. I don't know how to pronounce Irish names anymore. I've been out of practice for such a long time. People are gonna be mad at me. I'm sorry. - Aiton. - Cueva C-A-O-I-M-H-E. - So I'll spell it in. - What? - C-A-O-I-M-H-E. - Yep. - That's Cueva? - Mm-hmm. - That's not right. Just not right. - And then. - Mave. (laughs) - Mave is M-A-M-E-A-D-B-H? - You can spell it that way I think, but there's also easier ways of spelling it. It's also confusing 'cause a B-H and an M-H, both kind of make like a V sound in Irish. - Three strings of language. - It's a nice story. - I would love to learn it again. - Is Nester an Irish?
Irish name. It sounds kind of Irish. I think it is because I think it's Greek. Oh, great. Great derivation of Nomi to go back. Nostus. One who returns from travels. I think my dad is a quarter Irish, which would make me an eighth, right? Yeah, sure. Americans are the only ones that like say their heritage infractions like that. Like once you start not being like half or quarter or something, everyone's like, whatever. But Americans are like, I'm one eighth Irish, one 24th Cherokee. That's like, are you, are you really? Are you name one Irish thing? That's not me. Okay. One Irish thing. The slang from last week. That's not you. That's the slang from last week. Wait. You don't remember it. That would have to not come up last week. Okay. Ferry. Ferry. Ferry. She's a ferry. Close. She's gone. She's going out with the fairies. There's almost she's away with the fairies. She's away with the fairies. She's a fucking loser. What does that mean? Like a fool. Ah, me mat. Yeah. Here we go. My mother. That would make more sense going out with me. What are you guys going shopping or? Anyway, go on. Wait. Hold on. We're going to go going out with me. And we're going to. There was something with kissing and I can't remember what he did. What do you do on a car to change gears? Oh, we're going to be shifted. Yeah. Shifting with me. Yeah. Maybe they call it shifting because it's like a gear stick in your mouth with both tongues and like gear sticks going around one another. Do you think anyone's ever kissed like that? But like first gear. Somebody was like, you know how to say if you want to do kind of linguists like spell out the alphabet or something like that. Maybe for Irish people, they were like, lad, just get in her mouth and then pretend you're going through all the gears over and over again and then go back. But like really quick. And she must have a lot of guns making the sound whenever you're kissing her. Oh, sorry. A downshifted. Maybe that's what they call going down on each other. Downshifting. Downshifting. Oh, that's excellent. Take that Ireland. Well, should we wrap it up here? We should wrap it up like a cat in a blanket. We should also encourage everybody to leave some birthday comments for Sean. Yeah. And not just happy birthday. Like get crazy with it. Get leaky with it. I'm so sick of that. Happy birthday. Have a good one. Like it's nice that you're thinking of me. That's great. I'll accept it over nothing. But you know, I'm giving you free will to just do what you want. Is something creative? Yeah. Something cool. Happy leak day is even better. Yeah. Leave, leave. I want an MLA formatted essay. Birthday essay for Sean. I know what MLA is. It's a it's a way that a paper is formatted. What does it mean? I don't remember. You don't remember. You don't know. I can't remember. Okay. I did. I knew at one point. What's the difference? Major leak. Academics. What probably? What is the difference between not knowing and not remembering? It's the same thing at the end of the day. I don't remember. I don't know. I knew once, but I don't know anymore. It's better to have known and forgotten than to never have known at all. So true. Okay. Anyway, thank you guys for watching. Go subscribe. Go follow. Go do whatever you do with podcasts in any place. It's different. Share with your friends. Yeah. Listen with a friend. Become a leaker. Yeah. Tell us what your favorite month is. Just go nuts. How many how many new leakers can we get in 2024? Yeah. How many teeth do you have? Yeah. Let us know. Anyway, thank you. Bye.
