TD&L Donkey Show Podcast for Tuesday - A.I. 2027

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:04):
Let me know when you're ready.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
I bet that's a good start.

Speaker 3 (00:07):
This is Tanner, Drew and Laura's Donkey Show.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Yay, Yay, what's happening? Thanks for checking out Tanner, Jew
and Laura's Donkey Show PODCASTO heard online at one five
nine in the dot com the iHeartRadio app. It is
laughable or if you listen to podcasts, sorry, where I
got to turn your micael Yeah? Thanks, you're over there now.

(00:34):
I can always tell if I I can hear like
a and I'm like, what, that's not normal. I haven't
turned the MIC's on it at the Beef Father today too,
but that was intentionally, Yeah, naturally a little different. Keep
him in line for his birthday. You gotta keep him
on a short lead. Yeah, he came in here hot.
We had to knock him down a pick. Happy Tuesday.
If you're listening to this on August fifth and we're
recording it, I'm Tanner Drews here, Laura's here, BUSTERSA, Marcus

(00:56):
is joining us as always, and Court should be here
in a few minutes. It's it was a fun show today,
Marcus h. You probably didn't hear it, but we were
talking about just this new the bit that's going around
on the internet where guys are calling their friends to
say good night. You know, Like have you seen those
videos where just a dude will be like, Yo, what's up, man,

(01:16):
just want to tell you good night, and.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
The other friends like what the hell.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
So we we were talking about that because a listener
has been doing that to Beef Water, and then we
were like, well, let's just call somebody randomly and say
good morning.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
M hm.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
So I just went through my phone and just found
a random person because I was like, I don't know
who to call, and we were live on the air,
and so I just chose Jason.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Muse from Jay and Silent Bob.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Okay, and so I just called him. I just called
him on the air and he answered and we put
him on the show and he talked to us for
two or three minutes.

Speaker 5 (01:48):
That's amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Yeah, And he was actually it worked out perfectly because
he got a chance to plug his website, right, yeah, yeah,
he got a chance to plug his tour. And he
was like, yeah, man, I just dropped my kid off
at school. I'm headed home. It's a perfect time.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
And in the by myself, it is a moment of peace,
like because you're getting them to the to the school
and everything's so intense, and then they closed that door
and you've got to like three minute drive.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
It's just it's just funny that he just like answered
without yeah, knowing who it was.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Yeah. Well, Casey told me that it says iHeartMedia when
you call. Oh okay, so maybe he knew it was
somebody from a radio station.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Sure, Yeah, that makes sense because he did answer with
a somewhat business tone, like, oh, hey.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Court just walked in. We're just talking about me cold calling,
Jason mused today on the air, and he answered, and
he just dropped his kid off.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
You know.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
I fall him on Instagram and he's he's just like
a family guy now. He's just always with the kids
and his and his wife and looks healthy. So I
was just surprised that he answered because we were just
effing around.

Speaker 5 (02:45):
I don't know that because when you call me, it
does not say iHeartMedia phone. Yeah, it just it just
shows the number.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Maybe he just when because you were pretty quick to
tell him who we were. He probably didn't remember specifically
who who we were, just that Yeah, he's been on
a radius I've been Yeah, yeah, but.

Speaker 4 (03:02):
I think yeah, didn't he sick? Because did you say
Tanner Drew and Laura in Portland? I think so, yeah, okay,
because at some point in the conversation he's like, oh, yeah,
next time in Portland or whatever, and I was like,
did he remember that we were important?

Speaker 5 (03:14):
Because I was. I was listening to that too right
before that. I think you I think Tanner said, hey,
when when's the next time where maybe he's Drew, So
when's the nice time coming to Portland?

Speaker 1 (03:20):
I fed him the Portland thing? Okay, So maybe if
he was playing along he caught on there, But either
way he answered, and I think he was being genuine
when he said it was a nice nice to.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Get the call. And you've had him on the show
numerous times and he's always so honest and open, and
I love that about a guest who just like, listen,
I've been through some things, I've had some drug issues
or whatever their problems are. I love it when they're
open and honest. He was totally open and honest, even
told us how much money he made for both mal
Rats that's right and Jay and Silent Bob strike Back.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
Yeah, and now he was still doing roof work during
that time.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
Which is crazy, right, It's like you're in a movie.
You would think that you're in a movie, you're never
gonna have to do that stuff again, But you're in
a movie. It's in theater, and you're on top of
a roof swinging a hammer.

Speaker 5 (04:02):
Well, exactly for Clerks. I'm sure he got paid nothing
because that was made for nothing. He just did that
for his buddy.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yeah, like he literally like him and Kevin Smith like
lived around the block from each other.

Speaker 5 (04:12):
Yeah, right here, just like you want to be in
my movie. I mean, that's how that entire movie was made.
All the all of the people in that movie are
just his friends, yeah, because he and they would film
it at night at the place that he actually worked
there at one point, and so they just went in
there at night when it was closed and they would
film the entire movie.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Where were they filmed that at New Jersey, New Jersey. Yeah,
So it was cool that he answered the phone. I
wasn't expecting him too, honestly, because when you're live on
the air doing stuff like that, you're just trying to
like make a bit happen, make some you know, make
some funny audio. If he answers and hangs up. That's
also kind of funny. So I just took a chance
and he picked up, and it was very cool. I
really liked that.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
Please that you just called say good morning.

Speaker 5 (04:47):
Yeah. Yeah, and he's and he slipped right into promotion
mode too, like I'm going to my website and we'll
go get some here here.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
I feel like we needed to let him do that
after we just hit him totally. No, hold on, hold on,
You're not gonna control the interview, Jason.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
I'll tell you that now. No, Yeah, let him do
whatever he wants. That was really cool. So I want
to know, like, like, who's the most famous person in
your phone? Oh, I don't have any. I think that
might be it, but I have had my phone.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
Maybe my favorite.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
I have my most famous person. He's not alive anymore.
But Jason David Frank who played the Green Ranger, isn't
my phone? He rest in peace? Uh so is it?
Jason Music. I have some comedians in here. They're not like.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Huge, but so when I do those charity things, I've
got a handful of pretty famous comedians in here. I have.
I thought I had Mark Norman's I got phone number.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
I have Bill Burr you have Bill Furr's phone number.

Speaker 5 (05:47):
Ship, I have Bruce Campbell.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
Oh great, and he's he's a local boy, isn't he
Bruce camp.

Speaker 5 (05:54):
Well sort of? He he he lives in southern California,
or he has a place in Southing or so.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Or I have Paul Tiedeman's phone number. That's that's a
big mare he is.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
So I don't have Mark Norman. It's Mark Norman, the comedian, right,
the one who hangs out with Shane Gillis all ye, yeah,
So the funniest story. And I had forgotten this till
I was reminded of this a couple of weekends ago
that he actually did that charity event that I do
one year, and he's he's like a huge comedian now.
But it happened completely on accident, Like we had another

(06:26):
comedian who was going to show up and then he
had had he had like a disability, but that was
part of his act. But he had had a health
scare that had kept him from flying. And we found
out like a day before. So he goes, don't worry,
don't worry, I've got a buddy will come out and
he'll do it for you. And he calls Norman himself
and the guy flies out on the next flight and

(06:49):
does our show.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
That's cool.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
Chances of us getting him without that dude was a
zero percent, zero, zero point zero, So that's kind of cool.
I failed to get his number at the end, but
you know next time, because normally they want to give
me their number, because if they're a self promoter, they
don't necessarily have a person like Helium who sets it up.
They just want to call me.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
And that's that's the only reason I have a lot
of comedians numbers, I think just they want to promote
Drew Hastings. Remember that they don't.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
They don't.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
They don't like hang out with I don't have the
he's he's this guy's also not alive. But I had
Dennis Hoff's phone number in my own ranch brothel, and
we always had his direct line like two of like
almost a ridiculous level.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
We could call Hoff at any point.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Who's the most famous person in your phone?

Speaker 4 (07:39):
Laura, Yeah, Tanya heart looking and I just don't see
the grass Tyson.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Oh that's dude. I would love to get him on
the show.

Speaker 5 (07:47):
Oh my god, I don't know if that's actually like whenever.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
A lot of these people change their numbers.

Speaker 5 (07:51):
Yeah, whenever I get whenever I do an interview, like then,
I just put the number in my phone just in
case it is actually their phone number. It could be
a hote hell room and you know and Poughkeepsie. Who knows, Yeah,
Henry orlans.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
Dude, I wouldn't love to have. We got to try
to get Neil on, So send that number of texts,
just say hey, bruhuh, what's happening?

Speaker 1 (08:12):
You want to talk stars, big dogs.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
You want talk space and stars, get all big.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
What do you think about putting a nuclear reactor on
the moon?

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Yeah, many things. That's brilliant.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
What do you think of that? Court? They announced that
they want to put a nuclear actor on the moon
by your twenty thirty, which is just five years away. Right,
How does that pop? Five? That's four and a half
years away.

Speaker 4 (08:30):
Yeah, I mean it's got to be earlier than that
because they're trying to beat Russia and China, both of
who are trying to get it on the moon by
twenty thirty.

Speaker 5 (08:36):
And that's that's the annoying part of it. If it's
if it's for a reason, like Okay, we're going to
set up a base on the moon. We need power
and we need what We'll take up this reactor with
us when we go. That makes sense to me. But
if it's just we want to beat Russia and China
so we can say that we were the first people
to put a nuclear reactor on the moon, that's just stupid.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (08:54):
So and like what four Yeah, right, it's gonna be
sitting there doing nothing because there's nobody there to you know, need.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
We've got problems here, Yeah, we got problems here. It's
there were so much crazy stuff that came out of
the news. Yes, say, like do you hear that Meta
wants to build that giant AI data center. It's gonna
be the size of Manhattan.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yeah, I wouldn't worry about.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
They're gonna call it Hyperion.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Yeah, Jesus, Now there's a thousand things to worry about
on that front. Right, But like when it's the size
of Manhattan and then we decide like, okay, it's time
to shut the computer down. And we can't get through
the wall of a Manhattan size.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Situation because they said it was gonna look alien. It's
not gonna be built for people, and you know, you
know what, it's gonna do. It's gonna be like in
sky Neet.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
It's gonna protect itself with weapons.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
Yeah, it's gonna have turrets and big giant hands that
come down and slap you right, Yeah, like a jackasses.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
And it probably is gonna eat nukes. So just good luck.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
But seriously, like it's not to me that stuff is
not science fiction anymore. Like if they're gonna build a
megastructure like that, for one, that's fucking crazy. And where
are you gonna put it? It's gonna be hideous?

Speaker 5 (10:00):
Yeah, and for what what I mean, what is you know.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
How much water and power that thing's gonna suck up?

Speaker 5 (10:04):
I mean all of it? Speaking of nukes, they're gonna
have to have like two nuclear reactors just to run
that thing.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
Yeah, stop worrying about the moon and maybe worry about
what we're doing down here.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
And the only fiction thing left in Terminator is the
time travel and you know, who knows what they got.
But at the same time.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Outside of that, dude, you're totally right, nothing is far
fetched in the whole operation. Like I was watching this
thing on TikTok last side about Ai because I'm just
going down the rabbit hole with AI right now, and
you know they were talking and everything they were describing
was like the movie Terminator, which came out in nineteen
eighty five or eighty six or so eighty four. I
mean it's crazy, you know, like and now we're you know,

(10:42):
now we've got these one are they gonna put the
AI inside those humanoid robots?

Speaker 4 (10:46):
They're probably doing it all right, it's gonna say, it's
probably already happened.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Like I imagine there's like a warehouse, a factory somewhere
underground where there's just robots with guns.

Speaker 5 (10:53):
I love the I love the Elon Musk did that
because he's trying to do his own, you know, humanoid
robot thing, and he had like a big showing where
he's gonna show off his robots and people were having
conversations with him. Oh my god, this is amazing. This
thing is already outfitted with AI. No, there was. It
was a guy with a microphone and the puppets.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
You were watching basically what they did on the set
of Ninja Turtles exactly. That's literally what they were doing.
So but you know it's gonna get there. It's getting crazy,
and the AI stuff is like what I was looking
at last night, is listen to this. We talked about
this on the air earlier. This twenty four year old
gets a two hundred and fifty million dollar pay package
from Mark Zuckerberg. Mark Zuckerberg originally offered him one hundred

(11:34):
and twenty five million, and the kids like, nah, that
was a quote low ball, and so zuck Zuck came
back with a huge package and offered this guy two
hundred and fifty million dollars. So two hundred and fifty
million dollar employment package, which I don't know the employment package,
what does that mean?

Speaker 5 (11:49):
Some money?

Speaker 2 (11:49):
Maybe a car.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
I bet it's everything. I bet he's tied into. He's
got the special health insurance.

Speaker 5 (11:56):
Second, a movie to the Jets, stock options, the whole thing.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
Yeah, second, the movies. When like, you get that thing
and all of a sudden you get to that penhouse
and you have access to all the cool tech and.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Yeah, and the fact that you just dropped out of
college out granted you were in a excellent program at
the University of Washington in Washington, which is an amazing school. Yeah,
but to be like, so, do you want to stay
at school or do you want two hundred and fifty
million dollars and will let you do your life's work
the way you want.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
To do it.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
And it sounds like this might be the it, like
he's this might be the end of it, Like he's
just gonna build this, you know, this superintelligence and then
it's going to create itself after that. So it's psycholmost
as he's getting hired to build one more thing and
then well that's the.

Speaker 5 (12:34):
Thing that the AI is getting to the point where
it is almost smarter than us and it can almost
self replicate.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
And they say that by twenty twenty seven it's probably gonna.

Speaker 5 (12:42):
Be able to do that. And once that happens, then
you don't need coders anymore. It's just gonna be making
its own little versions of itself.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
So I don't know, just as we teach our kids
to code, right, you know, it's like, oh, they're going
to be the future, and they're also there as obviously
as we are.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
Yeah, yeah, this AI is scary.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Man, who's still they didn't learn the coding?

Speaker 5 (13:00):
Now?

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, right, I wish I could code.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
I mean rights, But it's one of those deals where
it's like I'm really good at typing, or I thought
it was like really good at creative stories. I'm not
going to be as good as whatever it is is
coming along now.

Speaker 5 (13:15):
They somebody put together the list of the jobs that
are safest from AI and the jobs that are not,
and yeah, all the all the writing jobs, all that
kind of stuff gone. I gonna take all of that stuff.
Anything creative. A guy's got that. The safest job that
you could have from AI, I think is like dredge
operator or something like that, so you can you can
dredge rivers.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Honestly, though, Marcus, to you, what are we going to
do if twenty twenty seven comes and they say, if
all these guys who are predicting that we're not even
going to recognize the world in a couple of years
because AI is going to change the landscape, what do
we do as people? They're going to say, Well, we're
gonna have more time to spend with our families, more
time to do things well with what money?

Speaker 4 (13:54):
Yeah, we're not going to be able to support our families.
So I don't know what they expect from us.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
Yeah, where does this? Where does this go? Marcus? In
your eyes?

Speaker 6 (14:02):
You know, I don't. I try not to look at
it at the big picture and I know that's probably
short sighted and naive of me, but I try to
look at it through the lens of how it's going
to affect me, and I'm holding on to one shred
of hope because of what Courk just said, Like a
lot of the creative jobs are gonna go, which I
hate because if anybody's used AI for anything creative, what

(14:23):
you'll realize is it's fucking horrible at it, and it's
there's a reason that we're not doing it yet, right,
It's it's really not good at coming up with the
stuff that we do for a living. And the transportation industry,
which I work in, you know, oh that's the only
industry I work in. They're kind of rebelling against automated trucks.

(14:44):
Like if you just take a random sampling of one
hundred people from the trucking industry from the top to
the bottom, you know, people that are changing tires all
the way up to people that own fleets. There's a
lot of them that are gonna say, no, autonomous trucks
are no good.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
That's not what we want.

Speaker 6 (14:57):
We're gonna have to pay somebody to sit in that
thing anyway, So why not have somebody that can handle
the freight and take care of the paperwork and all that.
So I'm hoping that trucking kind of rebels against autonomous
trucks and it gives me somebody to talk to.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Still, yeah, it's gonna happen, though, Dude. I was watching
a podcast the other day and they're like, they're like,
it's coming, like automated semis, it's coming.

Speaker 5 (15:17):
They're already out there, They've already they've been doing them. Yeah,
but they've been doing testing runs.

Speaker 6 (15:23):
Yeah, they're they're doing test runs on very small corridors
in a couple of states. But the problem here is,
like everything else, this is a California driven thing, right,
the autonomous trucks. They said we want all gas or
diesel rigs out by twenty thirty or whatever it was
a couple of years back, and they don't have the
infrastructure in place. Dude, you got to build charging facilities

(15:44):
for these trucks. Think about how big a semi truck is,
and think about every time you drive by a pilot station,
how many of them are parked there. Well, it's gonna
take like three or four times that amount of real
estate to charge that many trucks. Not only that, but
it's gonna cost billions and billions of dollars and you
need it not just in a few places, you need

(16:05):
it all over the country. So the idea here is that, yeah,
the trucks work. They can drive from point A to
point B. That's great. How do we get all the
rest of the shit going that surrounds it? The infrastructure's
just not there yet. Well, this is you know, I'm
not really talking out of my ass here. I've interviewed
a lot of experts about this. I've talked to a
lot of journalists people that are that are in it,

(16:25):
and it's coming, but I think trucking's a long way
off compared.

Speaker 5 (16:29):
To some of the other stuff that we're going to see.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
Yeah, I don't feel like you're talking out of your ass.
I think everything you said is right. It's But to
Tanner's point is it's just inevitable and that you know.
I a buddied of mine just a couple of days
ago he was videotaping himself in his taxi and he
turns around. There's no car driver. Now, granted they were
in Los Angeles or somewhere in southern California, so it's

(16:51):
going on more there than here. But I mean, think
about that five years ago looking over and you're in
a vehicle, be crazy with no one in it.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
And it's not just LA, it's multi market. They're doing
it in Phoenix, they're doing it in Austin like and
it's just going to continue to roll out other places.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
And now, granted you're right about the batteries, you're right
about the space and all that, but that that will
be the next thing, and.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Also just greed companies aren't going to want to pay
people well and they're going to try to figure out
a way to get out of it.

Speaker 5 (17:16):
It was supposed to be the next thing. I don't
know it's going to be the next thing anymore, because
that the transportation bill that was passed a few years
ago included a whole bunch of charging stations along freeways,
all the infrastructure to go to to you know, build
those things, and that's all been gutted.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
So it was going funding is good.

Speaker 5 (17:34):
Oh yeah, it's gone. So I mean, so the idea
that this we can now do this is is probably
it's several years out now because all that's going from Marcus.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
Though we don't want markets Marcus we want.

Speaker 5 (17:46):
We want the podcast so it gets people to talk
to you.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
That's good, Rubber Side Down podcast.

Speaker 6 (17:50):
Big No, it's that's that's on the shelf for now.
But let's think about the bigger picture here, guys, like
we're talking about putting three plus million drivers out of jobs.
That's something that these bills that get passed don't address.
What are we gonna do with the three million people?

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Let's say that's that was my point. That's why I
asked you, what are we going to do with these
people when inevitably these jobs are eliminated? What are we
gonna do? That's what I said that when I get scary.
So let me play this clip for you real quick.
This is Sam Altman. He runs Chad GPT. He said
a he made a pretty scary comment. This is one
I mentioned earlier.

Speaker 6 (18:22):
Think AI will probably like most likely sort of lead
to the end of the world.

Speaker 4 (18:27):
But in the meantime, there will be great companies created
with serious machine learning. I think.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
So I say that with a straight face, and dude
like he has no care in the world. It's just
let's build this super intelligence that you know, by any
means necessary.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
When the fireball comes through his penthouse. How hot is
it going to be at the moment he realizes, oh no,
this is my fault.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Isn't that scary? And like, you know, I don't know
when it's like he's just like a tech bro at
the very top.

Speaker 5 (18:54):
Well, sure he's got he's got his billions. What does
he care? I mean, the rest of us are screwed.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
You know.

Speaker 6 (18:59):
I guess that's the problem that I have with this
is that this is not a conversation that we should
be having. A well, like, yeah, it's fine, it's a
fine conversation to have. Why aren't these conversations happening at
the top level where all the legislation is happening. I
feel like there's a giant oversight where it's just like go,
go go. And you mentioned it, Tanner, greed is a

(19:19):
big part of it. And let's let's get all the
laws in place so that this is how it happens,
and then we don't think about the aftermath at all.

Speaker 5 (19:27):
We don't think. We never do. They don't care either.
They don't care either because the billionaires are the ones
giving them money. Although all the politicians are paid off
by the billionaires. The politicians do what the billionaires say,
because they're getting a little chunk of that too, So
that's that's how the stuff gets passed. Nobody cares because
all the people the top are making money off of it.
The rest of us again are screwed.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
But something will have to give, and that is when
we are not necessarily me, you and the next guy.
But when the majority of us are out of work
from that stuff, you still need to feed your families.
We already have the most expensive housing market in our history.
They say that anyone under the age of thirty without
a plan to buy a house likely never will you
think about that as a guy who's got three kids

(20:09):
under the age of ten. I walked one of them
to soccer practice across the street yesterday and I go,
isn't that cool? You're going to go to this school
one day? And she's like yeah. And then you went
to this school and I go, and your kids will
probably go to this school. And I didn't say this
next part out loud, but for the first time ever,
I thought to myself, maybe my kids could just have
my house, you know, And I've never thought like that before.

(20:31):
And like they are. My oldest is nine, and the
plan is that you just live here.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
I was reading an article. I was reading an article
that a majority of people who get houses in the
future will they will be inherited from their parents.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
And if there isn't someone with a house already, you're
going to And so at what point do we as
a as a group say we can afford to eat,
can't afford to live, We're not taking it.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
What are we to put a ride together? Is what
we're saying.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
And I'm not saying now is the time for that.
But people when they're hungry and scared are danger.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
For sure, for sure. And I don't know, it's just
it's all very scary. And I just went when everyone
loses their jobs and we're all just sitting at home,
like what the hell do we do?

Speaker 1 (21:11):
And none of us, I mean, you think about the pandemic.
We all got weird because we're at home and everything
screwed up, our whole thing.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
My court's really weird.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
Yeah, like he was kind of normal before the pandemic,
now lunatic.

Speaker 2 (21:23):
Yeah, guys.

Speaker 6 (21:25):
I had a cybersecurity expert on the podcast the other
day and he actually I heard an anecdote of him
taking over an audi a eight with his laptop from
like the top story of a building and pointing down
in the parking lot and saying, check this out, pulling
it out of a parking spot, driving it, and pulling
it into another one, all from his computer. That's not

(21:46):
an automated car, the Audi A eight. Yeah, it's it's advanced,
but it's not a Tesla. It's not driving itself. So
this guy told me, very seriously, you are nine meals
away from not knowing where your next one is coming from.
That's about the average that all of us have nine
meals ish with all the stuff in our fridge, all

(22:09):
the stuff in our freezer. Some of people are better
prepared than most, but he said, the average person across
the United States has nine meals out in front of
them right now.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
I gotta get a goat and a garden, and I
think we all should have that.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
We should have that big bucket you can buy with
all the you know what I bought on to Marcus point,
like three months ago.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
I bought that book. I can't remember what it's called
because I just bought it and immediately put on the shelf.
But it's like, if we lose all power, you can
teach me how to you know, get water, collect water
and to filter it, and to create a garden, and
how to you know, get this plant to grow. It
basically tells you how to survive. So I got that
book just in case I need to start at my
own little civilization.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
Nice. Because you run out of food, you're gonna, I
hate to say, you're gonna fight for it.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
Yeah, especially if you got the family you're trying to take.

Speaker 4 (23:01):
Yeah, I have no other choice.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
Yeah, when one's laying on the ground about to die,
you're gonna go get the food.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
That scares me more than anything, like a what's that
movie where they everyone has one one night to kill everybody.

Speaker 1 (23:14):
Gets like very burgy, all of us.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
That shit makes me scared. And then you know, I
was reading that all these billionaires, every single one of them,
are building bunkers because they don't want.

Speaker 5 (23:24):
Us, because they know we're coming for him at some point, right.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah, because nobody cares about what the bank says you
can have when we're hungry.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
Yeah, what happens when everyone tries to get their money
out of the banks at the same time because something
is happening and the bank says we don't got it.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
That's when the bank collapses and the robots come, it's
very bright. We're hoping to get two more Christmases.

Speaker 2 (23:45):
Hopefully the robots like to party. Everything will be falling.
I was weird watching this other there's this podcast called
The Diary Diary of a CEO, and this guy was
talking about how he goes, you know, we're gonna have
like twelve to fifteen years of dystopia, and then after
that we completely give into AI and just completely let
it control everything. Then we'll be in utopia.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
Oh I don't know.

Speaker 5 (24:06):
Really, none of us are going to live right exactly,
after all of us are dead, it will be a utopia.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
Yeah, that's what they robot. It's just one guy, but
he was I'd like to hang on to hope of
all that. I mean, too much doom and gloom is
tough to get through.

Speaker 4 (24:20):
So honestly, I'd rather there be a zombie apocalypse because like,
if I get bit by a zombie, that's fine, then
I'm just zombified. But like then, but if I get
slaughtered by a robot like or made into like a
slave or something like, I don't want that. Robots are
scarier to me than zombies.

Speaker 5 (24:36):
Maybe it'll be like a cyborg. Maybe it'll be like
half robot.

Speaker 4 (24:38):
Beat. Yeah, I'm already practicing before we go.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
Court and Marcus both we on the air. We were
talking about the guy in the in the Seattle kracken
suit who was chased by the bear during the photo shoot.
We were thinking, you know what would be scarier to fight?
What do you think you could beat a bear? A
brown bear, or a grizzly bear or a cougar?

Speaker 5 (25:00):
Cougar? Is I mean honestly that you have a better
chance against the cougar because a grizzly is just going
to destroy you no matter what. So I mean at
least of the cougar, you're about the same size, so
you might have a chance. Yeah, you're still screwed, but
you're cut. Yeah, yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
Would say, I would say cougar as well.

Speaker 5 (25:16):
Grizzly they are they are killing machines. You will be nothing.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Is it true that you have to pretend to play dead?

Speaker 5 (25:22):
That's what they say? I mean, I know with with
with black bears, you're supposed to make yourself big and loud,
all like that stuff. They'll run away.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
And it didn't work for Leo. He played dead and
he still got the rhyme is black fight back.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
Brown laid down.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
And that was a grizzly that Leo tried to fight.

Speaker 6 (25:41):
And and also there's plenty of anecdotes out there where
people tried to play dead and the bear basically turned
him into a meat soccer ball. They'll bat you around.
I mean, I have an Alaskan record. Well, my dad
has an Alaskan record. Grizzly bear pelt on his wall.
That guy his house wasn't big enough to put it
on the wall. That should tell you one thing. But dude,

(26:02):
the claws on this thing are like five inches long
from the fur and they weigh thousand pounds or more.
Like take on a cougar and just hope at least
you can wrestle with the cougar. That's one big ball
a muscle too. Yeah, but you might be able to
punch it in the nose and cause some damage. I mean,
that bear that's on my dad's wall actually charged the
guy that shot it, and he shot it right in

(26:23):
the face with the three point fifty seven and it
still ran over the top of him and punctured his lung.

Speaker 5 (26:28):
I saw.

Speaker 6 (26:29):
They ended up having to take like four or five
guns just to get this thing down.

Speaker 2 (26:32):
Yeah, big ass bear. I've been Marcus's dad doesn't play man.

Speaker 5 (26:36):
I saw.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
I've never been there, but I saw a picture of
his living room once. And you remember that scene in
a Spincher A two when he goes in there and
just sees all the dead heads on the ball. Yeah,
it's kind of like that. Wow, it's just they're just
mounted everywhere.

Speaker 5 (26:48):
Yeah, that's my risis. My stepdad's like that too. We
got we got all sorts of deer heads and antelopen.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
I live next door to a big game hunter like that,
and he had exactly what Marcus's dad has. And I
remember you'd stay the night over there and be freaking
out just looking at these things on the wall.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
It looks so real.

Speaker 5 (27:06):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
I know they were, but I don't do a good job.
I don't they do all that. I wouldn't.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Can you imagine doing that job?

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Just stretch a taxidermy?

Speaker 5 (27:13):
Yeah, I mean it's some people love it. I mean
the people find it relaxing.

Speaker 4 (27:17):
I was gonna say it's probably pretty relaxing, Like, look,
why would you why would you say.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
That about me?

Speaker 2 (27:23):
I love animals, but just ripping their guts.

Speaker 4 (27:27):
I'm not a hunter. I mean it's just like quiet
and you just kind of get to like mind your
own business and like keep just like do it.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Marcus has done it. I yeah, but you don't take that.

Speaker 4 (27:36):
You don't.

Speaker 6 (27:36):
The taxidermist doesn't deal with any of that. Like I've
even taking the taxidermists, not even a skull. I've taken
them just the cape. Had somebody come over and cut
the cape off of the skull and just taking them
antlers in a cape and they can turn it into
one of those realistic looking things. So they're just dealing
with hides. Man, if you bring a taxidermist to full animal,
they're gonna tell you to fuck off.

Speaker 5 (27:58):
Stuff. Still a bit where we.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
Bring a taxidermist, like someone can play dead, I mean
we can just can you do something with this? I'd
like to make a nice lamp.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
Yeah, I want full sized body though.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
All right, Well, thank you Cord, thank you Marcus. We'll
do another dog tomorrow obviously, and then on the live
show and other pair of tickets to Jason Bonhams led
Zeppelin Experience Court. You look busy today.

Speaker 5 (28:19):
What do you got going on a lot meetings meetings, meetings, meetings.

Speaker 2 (28:23):
So do you feel like the meetings are a waste
of time?

Speaker 5 (28:25):
Yes, all of them, all of them, all of them are.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
Do you find yourself tuning out and then just going
to work all of them?

Speaker 5 (28:29):
Yes, all of them. A lot of times I will
be Yeah, I'll be working on something else while they're talking.
It's because they're just not they're not saying anything that's
important or you know that it pertains to me at all.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
You've got one of those magic eyebooks. Where's the tug boat?

Speaker 2 (28:43):
Yeah, gets you one of those some of those glasses
with a big fake nose and the eyeball so you
can take a nap.

Speaker 5 (28:47):
It'd be great.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
Shut them to sleep, all right.

Speaker 2 (28:49):
Well, we'll see tomorrow. Say bye, Laura.

Speaker 4 (28:51):

Speaker 3 (28:54):
You've been listening to Tanner, Drew and Laura's Donkey Show,
heard daily at one oh five and the brew dot com.

Speaker 5 (29:01):
May God have mercy on all of our souls.
