Doan covers more crazy spending as Mike
Benz drops bombs on Rogan about what
that spending is actually for Trump
talks about the US controlling Gaza gets
the King of Jordan to consider admitting
Palestinians Intimates Russia will be
keeping some Ukrainian land all while
Hamas rejects Trump's Saturday deadline
Sam Alman threatens us with a good time
saying AI will improve by
300% annually plus RFK gets confirmed
20,000 new JFK files emerge ner a slow
day in 2025 Drew not ner a slow day in
ner man I'm telling
you jumping right into it Mike Benz was
on Joe Rogan exposing a deep state that
is USA this is just getting darker and
darker it's crazy every covert action
the CIA does has to be has to be
authorized by the president and what's
called a presidential finding to take
that covert action so if this if the CIA
senior leadership or a or just a rogue
cell that's not even at the top of
leadership but just a a rogue desk a
rogue portf portfolio a rogue Network
wants to run a covert action in a region
but they don't think the president will
approve or the president doesn't want to
formally sign off on it in case it goes
It goes wrong they can walk right over
to usaid who can do the exact same thing
the CIA does except they can call it
discret democracy promotion because it's
not technically an intelligence agency
so it's not technically covert action so
it doesn't require executive branch
approval or forn knowledge and they've
gotten in trouble on in these cases in
some pretty incredible ways crazy so
this seems like it's something out of a
spy movie like what is going on with us
Aid well so what is going on with
governments this is where okay I what
I'm trying to do and what I hope
everybody is trying to do is get a map
of how the world actually works and the
thing that I found most distress in
fascinating however you want to think
about it from The Mike Benz on Rogan
interview was he really breaks down that
we are just moving how the dollars are
spent through the system to hide from
the American public uh and so tying to
my favorite book The Maki of Ellens you
really begin to understand man is
political animal so governments want to
influence other governments where this
really gets tricky is when governments
in order to influence other governments
have to influence their own people and
that's what Mike Benz is saying is going
on with us Aid is we are funneling uh he
had this quote which I think is great
when something is too filthy for the CIA
give it to usaid and that is terrifying
and the reason that that works is you've
got the CIA has very specific mandates
the CIA has historically gone through
these massive scandals and that has
caused them to go we need another outlet
for this not we need to stop doing it
but we need to find another outlet for
these dollars and so they SP spin up the
US Aid organization and they give it way
better sounding name now the funny thing
is Aid doesn't stand for actual Aid it
stands for something else I forget we
should probably look it up otherwise
chat's going to go crazy um but it is
the same idea as the CIA by another name
not exclusively and I'm sure that they
also did things that really are positive
but uh United States agency for
International Development let's put
development in quotes so this is where
you start cing governments where you're
um spending dollars to have influence on
foreign countries now the reality is
that everybody does this and that's why
I'm saying this is how you want to map
how the world actually works so is
Russia trying to influence the US of
course they are is China trying to
influence the the US of course they are
uh how many countries are trying to do
it probably a lot of them but the US is
certainly trying to influence other
countries and so as I was listening to
Mike Ben's talk and I've got all of
James Burnham's words echoing in my head
about man is political animal the quest
for power uh how you um will always have
an elite class because the masses are
now this is my interpretation you'd
probably get the he GBS hearing me say
it like this but you um need
to give the masses a simplified story
that allows you to keep them basically
uh calm and moving in the direction that
you want them to move in in order to
keep the uh country powerful and safe
but there is this element of we are just
trying to control our populace we are
trying to control the world's populace
and we are all meaning every country is
doing this trying to control it to our
advantage now because America is so
powerful we are able to do this in ways
that other countries are not okay that's
piece number one piece number two is
that uh this is something Eric Weinstein
has been talking about and I believe I
quoting him accurately to say it's what
he calls the jessip
ification of either the world or of
America uh do we have that tweet okay
here we go ah it is literally the jessip
isation uh noun this is him making this
up but now the transformation of a
previously open free Society by actors
within its governing class uh to one in
which the electorate cannot be trusted
with even a basic outline of what is
happening and why via the abuse of need
to know or sources and methods
privileges okay let me say that in
simpler terms Jessup Colonel Jessup is
uh a fictional character out of the
movie A Few Good Men and in that movie
uh Jessup is he they finally break him
down on the stand and he admits the
thing he says the quiet part out loud
and he says the world is such a
dangerous place that you need men like
me on the wall who are willing to do
whatever it takes no matter how dark no
matter how Sinister no matter how
gruesome that you need men that are
willing to do whatever it takes in order
to keep America safe and what he's
saying is we're getting to that where
people are doing really bad and we
are hiding it by saying ah this is uh
information that needs to be secret that
you don't need to know all of this stuff
and turning America into that bully on
the wall as it were who will do things
even to its own people and saying you
can't trust these people they're not the
experts they're not all the things that
we heard uh during Co Miss dis Mal
information that's all this is the
populace being able to talk uh and
looking at it as the second piece of
this puzzle it is because we are living
in an age where information is traveling
at such high velocity and in such
massive volume that if Burnham is right
and you you just will always have
without passing judgment on whether it's
right or wrong just you will always have
an elite group of people that are going
to create that narrative that is
designed to keep people quiet
essentially moving in the right
direction to keep us strong and
prosperous then we're suddenly seeing
how it works we're suddenly seeing how
the sausage is made and what Eric is
railing against is stop lying to
me as the government stop saying you
can't trust me and we're going to live
through that Clash right now because
there's so many people that have a voice
there's now with the government trying
to um eradicate this unelected fourth
branch of government known as the Deep
State um it's all coming up to the
surface and so we're now being asked to
confront the realities of how the world
works and this is where I'm like the
third piece of the puzzle is I don't
know how this is all going to play out
because one the masses are never going
to uh avails of all this information so
even though it is now increasingly
available to them it is not going to be
something that they want to Avail
themselves of because it's just too much
they're just trying to raise a good
family they're trying to make ends meet
they're trying to love their life it's
just it's a lot yeah and so it's always
going to create the opportunity for this
um opportunity for people to say sit
down shut up you don't need to know
about this um so that we can control the
narrative because they can dangle the
the thing of um this is what is
necessary to keep us safe so it is this
incredibly turbulent moment in human
history where we can see it happening
we're all talking about it the only way
to stop it is top down authoritarian
control which certainly Americans I
think are going to rebel against
massively um but what happens to the
world when there isn't a singular
narrative that we can all get behind I
don't know that's what we're about to
find out and so there are just so many
things happening right at this moment um
and we'll get into this later not the
least of which is the disruption that's
caused by Ai and so that is going to
occupy a lot of people's thoughts so
just to really zoom in on two
things I for one believe it is true that
you do need men on that wall that will
keep us safe that the world is red in
tooth and Claw and you need look no
farther than Russia Ukraine to
understand that powerful people will do
as they will and the weak will suffer as
they must and so if you are weak you
will find yourself in horrific positions
um but some of the things that the
strong men on the wall do are going to
make us real squeamish and are going to
trigger moral outrage and you need look
no further than what's going on in Gaza
which is that playing out in real time
of Israel saying uh I've had enough I am
the strong man on the wall and I'm going
to let Hamas get funded so that they
will attack and when they do I'll have
the excuse that I need to absolutely
smash them with a two-ton hammer
and we're literally watching it play out
um to use my favorite word fractal I
won't continue that fractal without
giving you a chance to poke on anything
that hasn't been clear but um it it's
all happening right now like right in
front of our eyes and going back to the
velocity and volume of information it's
just all there you just have to audit it
it's interesting too because on one side
Mike Benz is unraveling this deeply
established I I the term deep state so
I'm I'm straying away from it but like
there's this historical pattern of how
the government is manipulating and
moving in these shadows and then to your
point we're so we're getting a a glimpse
finally into what's going on into the
past and what what got us here what's
happened the last 100 150 years Etc
thousand 200000 2000 I mean but you know
the CIA was around 2,000 years ago but
no but the same idea was that that's
okay James Burnham read the book
The Mak of Ellens everybody if you can
hear my voice please for the love of God
don't read it once read it twice read it
three times he James Burnham just lays
out the reason it's called the Mak of
Ellens is because uh makavelli wrote the
book The Prince and I think other things
but that that's the one that he's most
known for and when people hear his name
they think of somebody who was really
Sinister he was trying to be the first
like political scientist and saying wait
man is political animal is knowable the
things that they do are predictable and
what are those things and he was using I
mean the scientific method was so so
early so he's a little bit clumsy about
it but he was trying to use the
scientific method and so he's saying
okay all of these things are knowable
the way that people act when they're
questing for power when they're trying
to protect themselves like these are all
knowable seeable predictable things so
for instance in terms of how predictable
and seeable this is uh there have been
documents Declassified that the US did
the exact same thing with Japan because
we wanted to enter World War II but we
didn't have a reason and so to get the
US on board with with it they were the
the government was internally discussing
how do we go Japan into attacking us
sound familiar from Israel so how do we
go Japan into attacking us they do
attack us and then we go into the war as
if it were just this Noble thing of like
oh my God they attacked us can you
believe it and now like we have to
respond but we goed the response but at
the same time it was the Access
of Evil and they were doing truly evil
and so should we have gotten into
the war probably
so it's like oh God Once you pull all of
this into the daylight it's like Jesus
this is hard to look at but the reality
is this is knowable this is predictable
it's it was first laid out by makavelli
himself uh James Burnham has made it
accessible to a modern audience and we
are watching it play out right
now between uh Putin invading Ukraine
because he can and saw America as weak
and that America America wasn't going to
push back but he could see them marching
NATO right up to his doorstep and I bet
part of it look I am I am reaching
inside his mind and I'm not a mind
reader but boy does this all feel
accurate uh that he's like no I also
want historic USSR countries reunited I
want to bring it back together and so
you've got that blended with you guys
are crossing a red line and and
I'm going to go for it and then again
Israel with freakish parallel to what
the US did uh with
Japan and it's like that's what's going
on with us Aid is the US government is
playing uh 90 degree chess and all these
shell games of moving dollars through
one place to another to confuse the
president to confuse the public uh to
get like a gazillion little pet projects
push across the line government's
destabilized etc etc etc but when it
comes home to roost you start
with the American public or your
whatever country your own people people
are going to squawk and when you've got
a democracy and you have a Bill of
Rights that allows for freedom of speech
you get this moment do you how do you
Rectify that what does a how would you
help like our community our audience
understand what to do with this
information because it seems like it's a
wave of information and it helps it
hurts us it hits our like inflation is
hitting our pockets so we see the
downstream effects but after learning
this information like what do we do with
this it just seems like it's going to be
a blip in the news cycle but like should
we abolish these National AG
intelligence agencies is it a net good
is it a net bad like where do you
actually land with the impacts and
ramifications of these policies and what
usaid has been used for okay uh I don't
know yet so here's how I interface with
the world I spend a lot of time thinking
about something and then eventually the
opportunity to capitalize on that
understanding of how the world Works
will present itself so I'll give you an
example uh Co hits I have a thousand
former employees that grew up in the
hood I with my understanding at the time
of how the world worked which is still
to this day wildly incomplete
everybody's is um I think ooh they none
of them have savings they're all living
paycheck to paycheck they're going to
get obliterated uh they're going to lose
their jobs and they are literally going
to struggle to make ends meet and so I'm
like I have to start making Financial
content to help them literally that what
was in my mind Financial content starts
outperforming everything else and I was
like huh like I thought I was speaking
to people that grew up in the inner
cities that didn't understand the basics
of money all of the sudden I realize
wait money is far more complicated than
I thought and I make Financial content
for it's been almost five years now just
yesterday or the day before I had a call
with my um money managers and it was the
first time where I was like I understand
now enough about how all of this works
with inflation and all of that now I'm
telling them okay inv invest in this
move money here based on all the
knowledge that I've been accumulating
over the last 5 years now uh that wasn't
what I set out to do that wasn't what I
would have said would be my ultimate
prediction of how that information was
going to play out but I formed a
worldview that had enough predictive
validity that now I feel confident
enough I'm still cautious and nobody
should look at my portfolio and go oh
that must be right um but it it's now
playing out in ways that I couldn't have
predicted when I first started so that's
going to be the same with as I begin to
map man as political animal um the easy
ways that it shows up I will be far
harder to manipulate the next time the
government goes for um hey everybody
there's a new viral outbreak and we've
got to do this or hey everybody for our
safety we've got to clamp down on AI
whatever like it it allows me to think
through their motives let's take Trump
I'm extremely excited by what he's doing
this all feels right to me but because
of everything I know from Burnham and
just watching all this stuff play out
and you see all these patterns repeat
I'm like oh he is man's political animal
he's motivated to acquire power to keep
power so when he starts saying like oh
we're going to control Gaza I'm like
that's a red flag for me so despite the
fact that I voted for him despite the
fact that I'm excited about some of the
things that are happening I understand
man as political animal I know not to be
on his team I know to look at every
decision through the lens of what is man
as political animal so I don't know how
that's going to manifest will it
manifest me making financial decisions
will it manifest as me making um
decisions on where I live like I'll tell
you one thing that's been in the back of
my mind for a while I do not like how
much of my money is tied up in property
so this is one of those things that's
just been slowly cooking in the back of
my mind why because now I'm less mobile
so I have way too much wealth tied up in
property which is the one thing I can't
take with me so if a government Stars
acting a fool and I want to change
States or God forbid which I do not have
any vision of me ever leaving America
but having property here if I had to on
short notice you just forfeit that
essentially um so had I known five years
ago what I know now I never would have
put so much money in property so that's
one of the so this is not me saying oh
guys I see everything clearly and just
do as I say that I will never be useful
to people like that um in fact Mike Benz
had a great quote in the um interview
with Rogan he said I'm showing you the
stars in the sky you have to draw your
own constellation so I'm a little bit
different than that and what I'm trying
to do with this show is say here are the
stars that I see and here are the
constellations that I'm drawing um I
don't know that they're right and I
think other people should also talk
about what constellations they're
drawing uh and then over time that will
play out in some useful way that as of
today I can't predict yeah it's
interesting I'm curious to see how it
plays out because there's a new sense of
trans transparency being shown to the
government and I'm sure that's making a
lot of people uncomfortable um I mean it
is for sure if you've made money off of
it all being hidden yeah for sure like
crimes you hid motives like it's not
money is a big part of it but there's a
lot of other things that's just
corruption abuse weight like is there
anything other than money and
power um I'm religious I think of like
morals and I just think of like being a
good like there so there's other there's
a bunch of that great two different
things uh what I'm talking about is on a
grand are you opening my mind right now
to an obvious element of humanity yes
that's not where I was headed I mean at
a global scale what people pursue man as
political animal pursues those things
but man as political animal is not the
only way to look at humans which is what
you are very rightfully pointing out yes
not what I was talking about but
excruciating valid we'll get back to the
show in a second but first let's talk
about something that's on everybody's
mind the dollar is not what it used to
be the markets are more unstable than
ever with way too many variables
changing at once and if you're paying
attention you know traditional
investment strategies might not be
enough anymore that's why I want to tell
you about today's sponsor American
Alternative assets they specialize in
helping investors diversify with gold a
nice finite inflation resistant physical
asset that's preserved wealth for
thousands of years now what stands out
about American Alternative assets for me
is how simple they make it you can
transfer or even roll over funds from
your existing retirement accounts 401ks
or IAS without selling your assets no
taxes no penalties if you're ready to
explore gold as a part of your
investment strategy call 1888 615
8047 or go to tomg getold.com again
that's 1888
8047 or just visit tomg getold.com this
is a paid advertisement now back to the
show well we go from a shady past to a
unknown future cuz Sam Alman is actively
trying to break it so can can I cheer
for your transitions they're getting
they're getting better by the day I like
these I like I'm trying um so uh Sam
Alman released like a updated road map
um he is kind of scrapping this whole
like pick your model type uh
format business like offering and
instead just going straight to we're
releasing these two models next year and
then after that it's going to be kind of
unified brand but I think not
necessarily how he's releasing his
models but what his North Star is and he
talked about it in this clip so let's
jump into it the progress over the the
reent scale is quite amazing our our
very first reasoning model um was like a
top 1 millionth competitive programmer
in the world people thought that was
very impressive it's like wow in AI it's
you know the millionth best people that
do this that's pretty good um we then
had a model that got to like uh top
10,000 uh 03 which we talked about
publicly in December is the 175th best
program competitive programmer in the
world I think our internal Benchmark is
now around 50 and maybe we'll hit number
one by the end of this year so that's
like an amazing rate of scale for more
compute in this new paradigm and we
don't see any signs of that stopping man
so he's basically saying they were the
50th best competitive program mer
internally and he's aiming to be the
number one best competitive program by
the end of this year um which is crazy
last year they were in the thousands and
now they're number one rate of scale
like this AI thing is happening it's
here yeah th this is a rate of change so
elsewhere he said that it was a 300%
annual Improvement wow uh so 200% is
exponential growth that means that we're
Beyond
exponential uh this is a rate of change
that's going to cause a problem so when
and I were prepping for the episode and
by the way shout out guys we now go live
during our episode prep so join us on
Twitch or YouTube um but the rate of
change is going to be traumatic trauma
is the right word
and this is for sure the kind of thing
that's going to lead to at a minimum
pockets of violence people are going to
panic this this is going to get weird
now uh I will caveat by saying people
are always going to be surprised pris
that then I'll put out a short where I'm
just hyping AI as an Act of Faith I
believe that we will get on the other
side of this and it will be wonderful I
don't think it makes sense to look at an
increase in intelligence and say that's
a bad thing we we want that we should
pursue it um but the it the rate of
change man is just crazy so I will
remind everybody of a very important
stat Einstein is 2.4 times smarter than
a uh so when you have 300% when
you go from the um in the span of like
three years you go from the millionth
best coder to the best competitive coder
in the world in three years from a
millionth to First dude that that's
insane so what that's going to mean for
the world is just an an absolute gutting
of the jobs so in in coding let's just
stick with that um I'll guess in the
next five years is probably going to be
a lot faster in in fact what am I saying
at at 300% rate of growth in two years
90% of people coding now just will not
be coding anymore either Sam is wrong
about the rate of improvement or 90% of
coders will be gone uh so what do you do
with that so somebody uh that joined us
in the live said uh what do you do when
for the last however many years people
have been saying go into computer
science because that's how you make a
phenomenal living parents have push
their kids to go into that and now in
the next two years 90% of them are going
to lose their
jobs that's life the this this is what
happens and I would like to um say that
call this an evolutionary Force
Evolution does not care about any
generation just doesn't it cares about
the long run blindly in that you things
are getting better and things will be
better on the other side of this but
somebody who's let's say uh 40 right now
and they've spent their whole life as a
coder they got a lot of Life to Live and
they're not going to be able to do it as
a coder at least not in the current
Paradigm now you've heard me talk about
this a lot but I think big corporations
shatter into a gazillion solopreneur uh
companies and so the right response to
all this is not to Panic it's to figure
out how you leverage it to your
advantage like I think about this a lot
man I used to think I was having to I
had to make all these millions of
dollars before I could tell uh the
stories that I want to tell um not true
in a year two years you will be able to
make a certainly a Hollywood scale
quality short by yourself one person
literally one person uh in 5 years
you'll be able to do a Hollywood length
uh quality everything one person one
person man that that is again a rate of
change as I said in the intro if
Hollywood is the canary in the coal mine
of the rate of change uh that Canary is
about to be dead yeah speaking of
Hollywood we actually have a producer we
have a clip from one of a t reality show
producers he's going through it already
the American entertainment industry is
is dying I struggled about making this
post but I think it's time for me to
voice what's really happening behind the
scenes in Hollywood a lot of people have
been asking me well Patrick what's your
next project what's your next project
and I'll be honest with you I haven't
worked since spring of last year and
there has been no project since after I
wrapped my last show fight to survive
and we saw the strikes looming for the
writers we thought okay this will be a
lot like 07 08 since reality or
unscripted television is typically
non-union we usually pick up the slack
when the unions like the writer guilded
and the Actor Guild are doing their
negotiations and we expected this to
happen last year but it didn't since
studios are runed by corporations now as
opposed to Executives who used to
Champion shows or support creativity or
the Artistry behind making television
that's just not how it goes anymore it's
slashing budgets across the board from
what I understand the networks have
simply run out of money they all tried
to adopt the Netflix streaming platform
get rid of advertisers and work on just
solely a subscription based model and
that just killed revenue streams in
short there's no money to make
television shows anymore or at least not
in the United States we've seen a lot of
Outsourcing out of the country there's
actually a show that's going to be about
San Francisco Asian gangs they filmed it
in Cape Town South Africa San Francisco
is just 300 miles north of La some
people think think this is Revenge from
the corporations for workers actually
trying to unite and get what they want
but no matter what the explanation is
there's just simply no work out there
and it is crushing entertainment workers
they're getting crushed and for context
he released this in February 2024 so
imagine what he's going to sound like in
February 2026 25 27 like no no no by
then by then it will just be so
self-evident that everybody is making
their own stuff uh yeah I'm I am now as
the CEO of impact Theory I am now
generating uh content by myself just
doing uh prompts shooting video on my
phone and look it's not good enough yet
but whoa when I look at what I can do
like really I'm talking like in three
minutes you can make a shot where AI is
integrated with your real footage and it
looks 80% of what you would expect from
uh a seamless um piece of like CGI cont
now it's only 80% but in 3 minutes like
that is it's insane and it is if 300%
rate of improvement is to be believed by
27 dude it's just it's game over for
Content creation not in fact let me say
to another way all of you out there that
have ever wanted to make your own stuff
and you run into gatekeeper after
gatekeeper it all goes away all those
Gatekeepers are gone so it will be like
Tik Tok or uh Instagram YouTube now
where it's
anybody can create and so it just
becomes a question of how creative are
you are you able to capture people's
imagination and so uh you have to like
it really only gets scary once you start
talking about disaggregation of capital
and I don't actually think that that is
a uh only net positive I think that
there are going to be some real
downsides to that so the only thing I
can't clearly see is will there just be
a huge bifurcation where you get
Gigantor uh creators like a Mr Beast who
do aggregate a ton of capital plus then
a gazillion little people who make just
you know the the bulk of your feed you
can only watch so many Mr be things um
that I don't know I don't know if if
that top will happen or if it's just
going to be um AI itself get so good at
generating this that you just set up an
account that's all AI generated and it
puts out a certain amount of stuff every
day uh the algorithms are certainly
going to change so they're going to know
how to read AI created stuff and um will
content be made for AI or for humans
that's the real question and I don't
know the answer to that yet we'll see
yeah I definitely think the market is
changing and even now with YouTube kind
of becoming a prominent player where we
had a stat that actually didn't make it
to the show but more people are watching
YouTube on their TVs than they are on
their phones right now so I think to
that point of Netflix kind of killed the
NBC network type model and now I feel
like the internet is quickly going to
kill the streaming market and then AI is
going to kill the internet and then
before we know it it's going to be some
type of new you just open up your phone
and it's a app and you press it and you
can just pick a genre and that's what
you watch or something like that like
it's going to get hyper Focus hyper
essential specific to you as opposed to
like we're all 300 million people going
to see The Avengers I don't think we're
going to get that as much as we used to
I don't think so I think that the future
looks something like this um you open up
an app and it's a hybrid story and game
where you're the main character and
maybe it interfaces with your friends at
probably will um and you go in there and
you're making decisions that have real
consequences inside that
storygame in a way that is so expansive
and is unfolding before your eyes
because you no longer have to create
assets because the AI can just spin it
up and it will do it Based on data that
it's getting off of your wearable
devices based on your eye tracking so
what you're looking at uh which um did
you hear the that Instagram is launching
that pinch to zoom did we talk about
that yet yeah I haven't so this this is
absolutely crazy uh they're releasing to
uh the public that if you post something
and someone does a pinch to zoom on
something it will notify you so if
somebody pinched to zoom to get a closer
look at a woman's ass boom the Creator
is going to get notified o people like
that one but that's not the real play
the real play is somebody Zooms in on
your sweater and now I know o I need to
make more of those because people are
really taking a look at that thing and
so um companies are going to use that
data but also from this entertainment
perspective the AI is going to be able
to read what you're looking at what you
engage with uh what kinds like what
Adventures does it send you on that you
are most engaged with and by the way do
you like a different style of game in
the morning then you like later in the
afternoon when do you want to be passive
when do you want to be active and it's
just all going to be happening in real
time now something like that is going to
take a while that's outside of that
three-year window just because people
are gonna have to discover the ways that
this stuff works and build all that
um but that when I look into like what's
the future of entertainment sub 10 years
it's that
wow it's there's a lot happening there's
a lot happening I feel like it's just
it's just kind of splitting up but I do
think that what you said resonates with
me the most is that I'm at least happy
that The Gatekeepers are now out the way
and I mean they torpedoed it they being
forcefully removed at this point from
from AI but at the same time the people
who do want to create I think they
should still be optimistic they should
still be hopeful because now it's your
idea if you're a really good writer and
you want to like create into a book you
can do that right now 100% for free and
if it hits with people you can publish
it to the masses like there's no more I
need only Simon and Shuster can let me
get a book deal you know what I mean so
they're removing that with movies we're
removing that with music like so it's
just another wave usually there's going
to be a time where we remove that with
TV shows and we'll be able directly to
publish and stuff like that too where
this gets interesting is right now you
can still create a moe so Mr Beast
the only gatekeeper was does YouTube
censor his content he could do whatever
he wanted but he's now created emote
because he can spend so much more on a
video because he makes so much every
time he launches a video but once there
is no like production cost and you just
you can create anything that's engaging
now you're going to like people will
have a viral hit and then they might not
be able to get attention again for God
knows how long and so that's the part
that I worry about like how do people
end up having enough stability
that they can make a predictable living
because humans do not like change and so
this kind of rate of change is don't we
do with that now though cuz there's a
bunch of people who had a really viral
Tik Tok where they did that one crazy
thing so now they keep trying to do that
same crazy thing over and over and it's
just kind of stair steps for sure but
imagine that um one you've got to be
able to take time off to do that and so
there's only so many people that are
going to be able to do that uh and
imagine that you can so so Moe number
one do I have the time to learn this to
build a Channel all of that uh whereas
now you're going to be one guy is going
to create I mean let's be really
downplaying it one person will create a
100 channels that are all AI generated
so it's a workflow of AI and he's just
looking for the one that Garners the
most views the fastest the algorithms
are all going to it doesn't matter how
many um followers you have it just
matters how people respond to that
content uh and so if you can SP spin up
effectively infinite number of channels
to test content and all that content is
being generated based on an algorithm
that you yourself write that says okay
uh you create a feedback loop uh create
a piece of content in this style go over
here turn that still into a video uh
post that video on this with the copy
generated from this Ai and I mean
ultimately it'll all be integrated and
then watch for which one gets the most
views figure out what the pattern is
make that piece of content better MH and
so now it's like is that fulfilling from
a human creativity standpoint so this is
where just again I will come back to the
rate of change is such that just when
you wrap your mind around how something
works it doesn't work that way an hour
later I mean it's when I think about
YouTube uh I've been on YouTube now for
eight or nine years and it's changed so
much people respond to me like I'm 95
and I've been doing uh YouTube for 50
years I it's really crazy the way people
refer to me as an elder Statesman and
when I think about how much it's changed
in those eight or nine years it was
manageable I could feel the changes you
reinvent yourself you do something
different it it all feels um like you
can keep up it
[Music]
won't man we shall see we shall see
heading into international news now
Trump sounds like he might be okay with
giving up some of Ukraine's land to
Russia let's let's get a quote if you
see any future in which Ukraine returns
to its PR 2014 bers well I I think Pete
said today that that's unlikely right it
certainly would seem to be unlikely they
took a lot of land and uh they fought
for that land and they lost a lot of uh
they lost a lot of soldiers but it would
just seem to me and I'm not I'm not
making an opinion on it but I've read a
lot on it and a lot of people think that
that's unlikely and of course people are
going to say this is Trump saying that
they should keep it and kind of
attribute it to him but break this down
for us so one I assume when he says they
that he's talking about Russia that
Russia fought for it law soldiers so
they're not going to give it up all
right this is where I'm we we'll see I'm
expecting people to try to make this
into uh orange man bad and he's saying
that you know Russia earned that land or
whatever I think here he's putting
forward um a behind the scenes look at
what it's like negotiating with Russia
and Russia is saying look fought for
that people died for that and the odds
that we're going to give that back are
essentially zero and Trump is trying to
get to the end of the war so that's my
instinct and to be honest watching him
because he he cannot help himself from
talking so uh there's a great quote I
don't know who said this originally but
when we speak we cannot help but reveal
ourselves and when Trump speaks he gives
away so much about what's going on
behind the scenes and it is a really
fascinating look at Power politics and
as somebody who is obsessed with getting
an understanding of how the world really
works this is how business negotiation
works this is obviously how political
negotiations work you find your point of
Leverage and um you play that point of
Leverage to get as much as you can and
so if he's back channeling trying to
broker this he's saying a lot of this
stuff out loud to get people used to the
idea that look UK Ukraine is not g to
have everything they want he knows that
zalinski is listening to this and I know
zalinsky said something like whoa whoa
whoa no negotiation should be happening
without me present good luck with that
it's just not going to play out that way
uh Trump is in a way more powerful
position than zalinski by a country mile
and so he's going to do whatever he
thinks is in America's best interest
whatever he thinks is actually going to
end that War uh with or without zalinski
and given that Putin could stop the war
instantly but zalinski couldn't the the
power is with Putin and so you're G to
go and you're going to talk to Putin now
of course he's going to want to involve
zalinsky because if zilinski can't get
his people behind this then you could
have years of of Frozen conflict where
essentially you have an Insurgency
coming from the ukrainians and just
constant never ending like Gaza uh is um
Palestinians and Israel going back and
forth you don't want to create that kind
of Frozen conflict but nonetheless like
you go where the power is and so
watching this there's going to be a lot
of people that want to look at this
through the lens of morality and I get
that I get the impulse but this is where
this is the law of the Jungle and
because we've had 70 years of visible
pce in the W behind the scenes a lot of
crazy immoral was happening but it
felt to the average person like oh this
is like a good time peaceful people are
acting honorably we lost sight of the
fact that this is um I have Hammer I can
smash you I will smash you I will take
your things uh we forgot that that's
what humans are the product of yeah it's
interesting um way back when I used to
sell uh Vacuums at Sears and I remember
like one of my co-works always used to
be like you know you can you can pitch
them you can get them to like a certain
point but if it's like a husband and a
wife you got to sell you got to sell it
to the wife but persuade the husband or
something like that so it kind of feels
like that with this Ukraine Russia War
where it's like yeah zilinski is a
president and he should be in the
negotiations but like we carry the pur
strings we've been sponsoring this so
it's like I'll come and let you know
what we decide type thing so that didn't
bother me as much that he's negotiating
by himself but I think that at this
point we all want a resolution to it and
with what Trump is doing in other places
of the world with these terrorists that
we're supposed to break our economy but
somehow other countries are caving in I
think he's just trying to keep keep that
same effort going um so we'll see what
happens with zinsky and if he's okay
with the deal that they ultimately end
up making um but that actually brings me
to my next thing because Hamas is not
okay with the deal that Trump made in
the Middle East and has officially
rejected his 12:00 release deadline they
were quoted saying the language of
threats has no value and only makes
things worse so do we think we're GNA
see some blowback after this deadline
has passed I mean it certainly sounds
like it is but that that is a pretty um
ahistorical quote the language of
threats is precisely uh what people use
and if you know that they can back it up
then and I mean look
uh okay let's say that I'm Hamas I get
it if you really believe you are right
and you have God on your side uh and you
are going to crush anyone that MTS to
stop you of course you're you're not
going to back down easily but you've
just watched I mean I don't know what
percentage of the com countries actually
turned to Rubble or sorry it's not a
country the um the territory the land
however you want to think of it um Gaza
I don't know what exact percentage it is
that's been um turned to Rubble but it's
devastating and you now let's say that
you make a move and you say uh you
we're going to start killing hostages so
you broke the ceasefire and we're going
to start killing hostages and they have
it's like 76 or something like that um
everyone you kill you're just
incentivizing the far greater powers to
come in and just finish the job so again
morality goes out the window they will
have a cover story uh to say this is why
we keep doing it we had a deal they
violated the deal America we have your
support um and that's going to give them
all the cover they need with like the UN
and all that cuz if I'm not mistaken
America can effectively veto any
sanctions that the UN wants to put on um
Israel and so this is where I'm like
this is essentially their Veiled Threat
that you guys are going to make it worse
and it's like all they can do at this
point is continue insurgencies which
they are certainly um they've been
weakened tremendously Andor kill all the
host ages and so it's like you you have
a card cuz people are going to care a
lot about getting those hostages back um
but if you play that card Jesus man this
is what they did for October 7th now
when you have a deadline and you don't
meet it even if Israel and America are
the ones that broke it if you start
killing hostages
yikes and for context the Palestinians
are saying or Hamas is saying that the
reason they are going against releasing
the hostage is because they're claiming
that Israel has broken the ceasefire but
I don't know man I'm on like a Paramount
kick and maybe I'm watching too many
like mayor of kingtown but there was a
point where they uh I got it like a
month so when I get these subscriptions
for a month I'm binging everything so I
I done like three shows deep now um so
there was a scene in that movie in that
show where like the prisoners took over
the jail and then there was a point
where they're like in negotiations
there's military tanks outside but the
prisoners was like
the message isn't Escape like I'm not
trying to leave but you're going to feel
what we felt and then they just started
killing people everybody's dead so it's
one of those things now from hamas's
perspective like I mean yeah you could
say no to the deadline the hostages are
leveraged but there's going to come to a
point where it's like it's just going to
be death it's just going to be like a
body so like I don't know what message
they're trying to do you can wag your
finger at isra all you want Israel has
kissed the ring they got Trump in their
pocket you can argue with the uh
APAC and their funding uh tactics but
Hamas has no leverage it seems like to
me we talk about negotiations and
strategies a lot it seems like it's just
they're looking to just make this a big
suicide mission so I'm hoping do going
to get that dark but well I think it's
already that dark uh and Terror works
and so they will use that and that I
mean the real thing to watch out for and
unfortunately I don't see any restraint
on behalf of is is for sure uh we'll see
about the us but I don't see any
restraint based on long-term
consequences uh what I see oh God this
is where I hate watching history because
this is just going to sound horrible um
what I see is a replay of America and
the Native Americans and dude that that
was truly if you want to hear gruesome
just read about the conquest of the
American West yo like the nastiest
on both sides where uh obviously we were
slaughtering Native Americans like
wholesale uh and Native Americans were
killing um settlers like licky split
like some of them the commandes were
gnarly
gnarly and you read about it and you're
just like godamn but still if one power
is way the
stronger ultimately they just hope go
Smash and given how much of Gaza they
have already smashed they've shown
they're just going to keep going and so
when you had America that was sort of oh
God I don't know how we feel about this
uh you had some
play but at least for the next two years
not so much so anyway the long-term play
is going to be insurgencies if you drive
Palestinians into um Jordan into Egypt
what do they do do they do they attack
internally and go after Jordan and Egypt
which is obviously why Jordan and Egypt
are so hesitant to bring them in do they
find other ways to go after uh Israel do
they draw Iran into this cuz let's not
forget this still could escalate but
this is why the US is trying to weaken
Iran so that Iran can't be a player in
this whole thing um so yeah this this is
uh this is real power politics playing
out yeah well somebody's gonna have to
do something because Saturday at 12
o'clock is tomorrow so we shall see what
happens uh yeah I mean let's pray for a
stalemate because uh I'd much rather
that than just about anything else I can
think of 100% and last but not least
friend of the show RFK is official he
got confirmed look at that look at that
is that really him walking in after okay
this is the hey by the way AI this is
literally what you can do this is so
crazy I love it I was like man he was
walking in with some Swagger uh yeah
brought to you by AI boys and girls
brought to you by Ai No but it's
official so I'm excited about that um we
were joking with the live stream earlier
um he already has kind of started the
the Banning of like red dyes and like
red three I think the FDA has um
officially a banned uh Lynn is in love
with Takis tell people who Lyn is
otherwise you're be like oh ly yeah my
daughter uh that's why you got to join
the community guys hit the live stream
hit the comments we talk about our
families and stuff like that you would
have heard Tom's amazing onesie story
I'm not going to make him tell it now
you got to be on a live stream that's
exactly right no but yeah she like loves
Takis every time she eats it it's blue
and red all over her face I'm like you
know that's paint on your face and she's
like no it's not I'm like oh well let's
read the ingredients and I turn it over
and I ask what all these things are so
I'm very excited for us to have like RFK
would be very proud of you Dad yeah you
know I went to McDonald's in uh London
last year and it actually was good I
felt a little bit better I mean it's not
good food but I was going to say wow
I've eaten at McDonald's in London I
don't know if I'm going all the way to
it's good but but it it tasted different
I was like oh snap maybe they I am
getting poisoned by my country like I
thought that was all like hype but I
don't know do you have a favorite junk
food you're like over
do I have a favorite junk food yes so uh
somebody in the comments please tell me
what the batch number is but there is a
uh it's like batch 46 it is a licorice a
black licorice made in Australia that I
was so into for a while I was importing
it myself in like these gigantic boxes
uh when my dad and I were there I found
it I don't randomly was just like oh let
me try it and cuz I I I like black
licorice importing licorice is D I paid
more in shipping fees than I paid for
the actual licorice but the problem is I
really don't eat a lot of sugar and so I
stop but yeah that if I was really going
to say that in Cold Stone ice cream but
talk about things I almost never touch
but this is if I'm really honest partly
because of Health but mostly because I
can't game if I eat sugar because it
makes my hands hurt really so yeah
welcome to my age plus my mom has
similar problems with her hands so I
found that if my diet is not just clean
clean when I game then my hands start to
ache and not like in a an okay way like
a this is not fun way so over Christmas
where normally I would go ham uh I had
to choose between gaming and eating junk
food and I chose gaming nice look at
that so yeah and that's why kaisen is
looking as it is right now there it is
everybody project kaisen it's free to
play that's all I got all right
everybody if you haven't already be sure
to subscribe and join us when we go live

billu all right everybody till next time
be legendary take care peace here is the
brutal truth about scaling most
entrepreneurs don't outright fail they
plateau and if you're stuck right now
you know how true that is it could be
that your Revenue flatlines every time
you step away or maybe you're trapped in
a commodity Market that's racing to the
bottom or maybe you're one of the lucky
people who is navigating a very complex
partner Dynamic that turns every ision
into a battle these problems and a whole
lot more can seem impossible until you
break them all down into first
principles my partners and I used this
thinking to grow Quest Nutrition By
57,000 per in our first three years
alone and scal to a billion exit and now
I'm teaching this framework to a select
group of entrepreneurs who are ready to
scale now I want to be clear this is not
for everybody because I'm looking to
work with serious entrepreneurs that
already have an established business and
approve track record of execution if
that's you and you want to learn how to
break through your biggest business
bottlenecks using first principles
