Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Check out The dread Excidabus, thenew podcast we got going on. It's
scripted fiction. It's really fun.I've been working hard on that one too,
And we will see you soon onthe next episode of The Kentucky X
Files. So take care of eachother and we'll see you. I saw

(00:53):
him the other day. Now he'slike, he's like way more bold now.
So he's just sitting out in themiddle of my yard next to my
chicken cab, just staring at himlike, h kick your ass. Yeah,
I randomly opened the window. Itfucking yell ship at him. Now,
my neighbors probably think I'm insane becauseI like, I opened the window

(01:15):
and I'm like, hey, Gregoryfucking suck, and he like takes off
running sucks. Dumb It when somebodymakes a bunch of noise when you're having
a peaceful time, son of abitch. Yeah, I got sidetracked there,
but ah, ship, God damnit. I don't know what to

(01:44):
do about this thing. I gottaget a new camera. You seem surprised.
There we go, got it?Yeah, I don't know, man,

(02:06):
I just feel like I feel likewe may have gotten you know,
like pretty far as human beings,you know, like, yeah, where
we're at. But I can't helpbut wonder like did we did we like
come out on top of this ordid we get kind of the short end
of the stick a little bit.Let me, let me give you a

(02:30):
scenario, and you tell me whatyou think. Okay, the other day
I saw a couple of squirrels anda bunch of birds hanging out in the
yard up with the trees and youknow and everything. Not one of them
was discussing going to get fucking gasso that they can drive to work tomorrow.
They weren't. They weren't worried abouttheir taxes, they weren't concerned about

(02:53):
their house payment or the grocery bill. They were literally just hanging out in
a tree, enjoying the world.But but that's the thing. I feel
like we've gotten to the point wherewe how to put it, it's that

(03:14):
whole thing that like, uh,how was it? Albert Einstein said,
like technology will be the downfall ofus? All Yeah, I feel like
that's that's the case. Like wewe gotten we had, We've got too
far in technology that we like ifthe world, like I want to believe,

(03:38):
if the world ended tomorrow. Yeah, like maybe like just say the
power went out and we didn't haveany power whatsoever, Like maybe a solar
filair just killed everything, but we'reall still alive. I believe that we
would probably die off just because noneof us have it. We're too dependent

(04:00):
on something like we we we've usedour brains to this, to this extent
to automate it, to automate toomany things, and then no one would
want to do the difficult work anymorebecause they wasn't. That's not how they
They know how to do things andlike how to do things, and like

(04:24):
I'm with that, Like, dude, my generation, I feel like my
generation were like we were like kindof the last, like we're on the
tail end of all this, likelike the technology, like the technology boom
if you will. I don't know, man, we we embraced it too

(04:45):
much. I was coming up andlike the Internet happened in like computers and
like all this. I was likethis is so cool, you know,
and then talking to people all overthe world, you know, and like,
wow, this is awesome. LikeI believe I'm talking to you know,
this kid from from Germany right now, or you know, I have
good friends from from Norway and Swedenthat I played video games with for years.

(05:11):
It was amazing because that would havenever happened otherwise. Yeah, but
then there is a degree of NowI'm ashamed to admit that nine out of
ten times I'll just order from Amazoninstead of driving two minutes down the road
and getting it. Yep, doordashing. I've been guilty of that one

(05:33):
lately too, because I'm like,man, I don't want to go anywhere
today. I want to just beat home and enjoy my home that I
work hard for. I don't wantto go out. I don't want to
leave it, you know, andtechnology is making that's I doordashed that.
Yeah, you're just saying this isthree bucks. I bought two of them.

(05:59):
Yeah, sixteen dollars. Yeah,yeah, this is ridiculous. Most
of the time I complain about money. But when I'm lazy, right,
that's when you when you fuck,when you get lazy, that's what happens.
You waste your money. Sure,Yeah, and I feel like that

(06:19):
is all of us, and Ilike, don't. I'm like, I'm
trying to not leave myself out ofthis because I am one of the kings
of lazy and I hate that aboutmyself, Like, and I wish I
could, like I wish I couldturn a switch and say that I'm not.
I'm not. But that's the typeof thing that it takes time to

(06:43):
get yourself out of these like slumsand stuff. And I feel like I've
always said that about like the humanrace and stuff. There has to be
something that will happen. We literally, yeah, no one check because they
want to. They change because theyhave to. Like that's a lot of

(07:05):
like how a lot of people say, like like when people are way overweight,
they'll keep eating until there are bigproblems and then they change the life
around. Yeah, like they that'show. That's how we work. We
like to continue to enjoy something untilwe're not, like we can't we physically

(07:28):
can't do it anymore. I've seena video about that. There was just
bringing like speaking to that this dudewas like eight hundred pounds and he was
laying in bed. He couldn't evenfunction anymore, right, And they said
he lost mobility like several hundred poundsago. And I'm sitting there like my

(07:50):
brain immediately went to work on it, and I'm like, okay, So
someone else helped you stay this wayand get worse because if you lost function
and mobility, someone's bringing you thisship, you know, and I can't
help of looking at it, andyou know, and it's like, bro,

(08:11):
like this is this is the worldwe live in. You know.
I made a comment to Uh,I made a comment that wasn't taken very
well to a couple of people.Uh. I didn't I didn't mean it,
but sometimes I have an analytical brainand I can't help put dissect shit
right off the bat. And uh, it was it had to do with

(08:33):
the like the mental illness. Uh, the revolution of mental illness. That's
all everywhere now. Mh. Anytimethere's a thing, somebody slaps mental illness
on it now not so much before. And uh, you know, it
was like overeating is a mental illnessnow. You know, drinking is a

(08:56):
mental illness now, blah blah blahis a mental illnes now. And it's
like everything that we do it's adisease or it's mental ill and it's never
ever our fault. And we lostaccountability. We lost a valuable thing there,

(09:16):
you know. And I made thecomment, the comment that wasn't taken
very well was it's amazing to me. How when you go to a place
like say in Africa, where they'renot doing very well as far as food
and medicine and water and cleanliness goesthat none of this is really a thing
over there. You know, ifyou go over there, you don't really

(09:39):
run into too many that have thedisease of eating too much. So my
thought is it's like, well,maybe this blanket of mental illness that we
keep claiming is a lot more aredoing and our choices that we're making because
of our environment. And here inthis environment, everything's at your fingertips.

(10:05):
It's a clickable borday. Yeah,you can order it and they will bring
it to you. You know,I've got like hot sauces that I have
delivered to my front door because Ican't be troubled to jump in my car
and try down the street. It'sso ridiculous, you know, the environment,

(10:28):
the environment, the behavior. Weencourage it because we're in economic society,
yep. Whereas some of these villagesand things in Africa that aren't doing
so good come from a hunter gatherersociety that's been invaded by economics. Somebody

(10:52):
came in and took the resources andtook this and took the biggest piece of
hunting land and turned it into apreserve, which I still find a little
suspect, you know what I mean. That's a little weird to me.
Yeah. I don't wish bad onanybody over there, man, I hope
everybody makes it. I want everybodyto do good. I'm just saying that

(11:15):
it's time. I feel like it'stime for us to stop making excuses and
do what we need to step up. But that like kind of goes back
to what we said. I guessif you guys are listening out there,
it will probably be in one ofthe first episodes talking about the white white
rhino. Yeah, Okay, youjust said they turn and take a big
piece of land and they make itto preserve. Okay, they I get

(11:41):
trying to protect certain types of crelike, uh, certain types of animals
because they're on the brink of extinction. But now you're taking your forcing said
try like tribe village that they can'thunt these things because because they're providing for
their family. They're not they don'tlive like us. That's not like you

(12:05):
got to understand too and not andthey're not hunting these creature uh these animals
for malicious intent, like to justsell certain body parts they're using they yeah,
they're using it. They're they usethe bone like uh I know,

(12:26):
they make tools out of the bones. They they use all the meat to
feed the village. Uh So that'sthat that that goes against Like I get
that part. Why people do that? Right, and you can stay you
can tell me all day long.I understand why people like why vegetarians vegans

(12:52):
they hate this whole mentality of wehave to hunt, but think about the
area that they're in. They don'tlike some of the areas you're not able
to grow a lot of food intomake it abundance to feed a lot of
a lot of areas. So yougot it. Next is a perfect example

(13:15):
in my opinion. Yeah, LikeI'm just saying, like I understand,
like people always say, like likeone guy, I saw this one video.
I'm uh like a vegan or avegetarian owns this reporter or something she's
like does like like lions don't sayor do anything like like uh like they

(13:39):
kill for meat. So like sowhat are you saying? He was like,
Oh, like so you're like we'renot lions. We are Yeah,
we can eat meat if we chooseto. Why do we pick and choose?
What a line? We don't goravaging areas and like literally just eating
raw meats. We cook it andlike people cook it and stuff, Like

(14:03):
why do we pick and choose?Because that's all we got some areas,
Like don't get me wrong, We'relike we're a society that we can grow
that stuff. But then I've heardso many counselss like farmers will say,
well, I use this type oflike chemicals, these types of chemicals and

(14:26):
stuff to preserve the like to growthis, say soybeans or something, I
have to kill animals that will eatthe crop that I have to sell to
get to you so you can haveyour soyburger or whatever type like that.

(14:46):
So the land is devastated and we'rekilling more and more animals ever each day,
so we could have that type ofthing every Like, no matter what
you do in life, we're gonnawe're not gonna leave here without type of
blood on our hands. Like yeah, like because not everybody is able to

(15:07):
have a micro farm in their backyardand be able to like survive off of
that. Yeah, and even ifyou could, it's good luck yeah,
because one time one like crazy stormanything, you're devastating everything you worked for.
Like so that's why, like,so you've got to understand, like

(15:31):
that's why we have to mass produce. Like dude, we're we're billions of
people. That's why we have somany farms and to keep that upkeep there's
gonna be repercussions, Like there's neverit's not gonna it's not gonna be such
a life like I guess like yeah, yeah, I feel like you go

(15:54):
out. We're too far along nowfor for like eCos some harmony. Yeah,
I've got a plot back in thebackyard now, say seventeen feet by
twenty something feet, and I'm solarizingit. Are you familiar with the term?
No, Okay, A tarp isbasically staked down to the ground.

(16:18):
It's using the sun to bake everyplant, creature, whatever that lives in
that area to turn it all intofertilizer. So when I pull the tarp
off, it would just be dirtand a little bit of tilling, and
a garden can go in. SoI essentially have to kill a seventeen foot

(16:41):
by twenty something square of ecosystem sothat I can grow a garden so that
I can throw some vegetables in,some peppers. There's there's no way to
just be in perfect harmony with it. You have to give and you have
to take, and that's that's allit is. However, we're planting a

(17:03):
lot of flowers. Also, theflowers are going to hopefully promote bees and
other animals that pollinate, So wewant to bring those in and we want
to get them, get them doing, and they can take all that and
go off and make their beehives andbe happy, and we're glad to do
it. So you take a little, give a little now. But there

(17:26):
is there's no way to perfectly bein harmony with this. If you want
to plant a bunch of organic healthfoods, you have to murder gigantic swaths
of natural habitat to do it.And you can't plant in the same place
twice because then you burn out allof the bacteria in the in the ground,

(17:51):
just billions of different types of bacteriathat help plants grow and help things
live. You have to kill allthat if you If you double plant potato,
farmers do it all the time.They completely burn out entire swaths of
field. But what they do isthat they come back in and they put
a slurry down and they reintroduce newbacteria and they get it going again for

(18:11):
the next one. You know,farmers have like literally they've they've perfected what
they do. They know what theyneed to do. You know, the
problem is that farming proteins it's abit harder, you know. I can't
remember where I was reading about it. It was basically saying, how like,

(18:33):
you can supplement animal proteins for plantproteins, but I believe you need
more of it, like it occupiesmore space something like that. I can't
remember how it went. Uh,it takes a lot of beans to make
the proteins that are in a cow. So to me, just not being
an expert, that sounds right tome, I don't know. But how

(18:57):
much how much land do you needfor that one cow versus how much land
do you need for all that proteinand beans? And it's now it's it's
predominantly soybean, and it's so badnow that the soybeans are being supplemented from

(19:18):
meats, and in a lot ofcases the soybeans are being if they're rejected,
like it's a bad crop or whatever. It's being turned into feed for
the cows, which is why everythingtastes like soybean. Now now you want
those omega threes, them grass beds. Yeah, that's how you get a

(19:40):
good burger, good steak. Soyeah, yeah, that's like how I
was, like, I that's whyI just get frustrated with like a lot
of this stuff. Like I feellike there's people out there that could probably
explain this a lot better than Ican, but it's just frustrating because everybody
feels like they can live the waythat they like. We can live in

(20:03):
harmony with everything and continue the lifethat we live. We can have these
big cities, we can have allall this stuff at our fingertips but still
be green about it, right,And I I can't see that if we
really want to be totally green,the population would have to we would have

(20:29):
to stop what we're doing, andthe population would have to be cut down
pretty pretty low. Right to liketo have like to be able to be
like I guess if you will harmony, I guess more of a it's more

(20:51):
giving than taking to help the helpthe help the planet. That's the case,
you know, like remember years ago, I haven't kept up with the
forestry industry. So I don't knowif it's still going on. I imagine
it has to be. But theyused to cut a tree down and plant
two. Yeah, it's like tome, like that's the most simplest,

(21:17):
simplest system right there is like youknow what I mean, Like you've cut
one down, plant two, giveback twice as much, so next time
it's even easier. Yeah. Ifeel like that if we if we did
that with everything, I feel likewe'd be we'd be doing something good.
Like I don't know, like ifevery if everything, if it was possible,
you know, yeah, you eata cow, you plant too,

(21:41):
you know, plant two cows.You know if you don't, Yeah,
I guess that that that one doesn'treally work, but you know what I
mean, like it then can itwork? But then there's another thing too,
is the cows. The how manycows that you have to raise two

(22:03):
to accommodate for the like for forthe masses. And then now we're on
the whole, like methane build ups, like the methane that the cows produced,
Like they say, uh, whata ranch would produce so much methane
because of the cows. It's likeobviously the what are we supposed to do

(22:27):
if there's another alternative? What weeat the methane methane burgers? Well,
I kept thinking, like thinking too, It's like, dude, I saw
I saw this on Doomsday Preppers.Dude, probably the best idea I've ever
heard on a Doomsday prepper site wasabout this. They had their total off

(22:52):
grade, but they have power likesolar and stuff like that, but they
heat and cook with the methane thatproduces from their own ships. That's pretty
pretty genius. Oh my god,that is amazing that. I'd like,
dude, when I heard that,by far the best Doomsday Prepper I've ever

(23:18):
heard like that. You can't tellme that's not genius. And everybody's like
they use their own shit to cookthat most tastes like it's not it's technically
a natural gat it's a biofuel.You're not gonna get that taste in your
fucking murder. You're not putting itdirectly on the fire, but you're just
get a charred taste to it.I don't know, maybe it would be

(23:41):
different, like because if you usea like if you put like a a
steak on a direct flame from afrom like a propane tank. You might
get you probably will get a weirdtaste to it because that's pumping direct.
Yeah, it sound like you're justthrowing a couple of turds on a grill.

(24:04):
And yeah, you're not lighting itlike like you have like a log,
a Lincoln log turds just in afire like that, and you're just
putting it on the st You're justholding the steak over the fire. Yeah.
No, there's some there's some chemicalchanges that are happening there. Yeah,
that's pretty that's pretty genius though,Like, yeah, because we're all

(24:27):
gonna ship, so I think that'samazing. What about all the methane coming
from our landfills? Like, yeah, a lot, right, I mean,
oh yeah, have you ever seenlike the ones that like uh rumky
and stuff. Dude, they actuallyhave vents because the methane that builds up

(24:52):
in like the core of like thelandfill. Yeah, they have to burn
that off or it's going to beit literally gets too much pressure in that
that mountain could actually explode. Itsays here that landfills in the United States
released one hundred and nineteen zero pointeight million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent

(25:18):
of methane into the atmosphere in twentytwenty two. All right, let's see
twenty twenty two Methane from cows.Twenty twenty two. It says the methane
from cows decreased by two percent.Okay, how much? Okay, metric

(25:53):
tons of methane from cows? Howmuch? Come on? Okay? Seventy
three point five million metric tons forthat? How much was the landfields?
Uh? Where's that here? Damnit? I lost it? Uh,

(26:29):
one hundred and nineteen point eight millionmetric tons only seventy three million metric tons
from cows. Seems like we needto do something with our fucking garbage more
than we need to do anything withthe cows. But that's the thing.
What can we do? I don'tknow, like because this whole in if

(26:55):
we want to go down that rabbithole. Yeah. The recycling as a
lie, right, it's one hundredlie. I've heard that. It's not
it's it's it's not profitable to actuallytake all this like recycled garbage and then

(27:18):
go and then actually recycle it.It's just not profitable to do that.
So companies they'll send the stuff andthen other companies will put it on barges
and send it to other countries andjust dump it there because they physically can't
justify actually refining this and putting itinto other products. They just can't manufacturing

(27:48):
of Like re rendering shit is probablywell, yeah, because you think if
they if they did it with plastic, then they have to melt the plastic
down that that it releases all kindsof chemical in the atmosphere, they re
render it back into something else,and then they got to clean it.
Oh yeah, wow, I couldsee it. There's probably a lot to

(28:10):
it. Yeah, there's just toomuch like there's just too much like process
to do that, and companies can'tcan't handle it. Yeah, So this
is where I go, like Icome into like where I think government should
come into play here. Okay,we it's non profitable to do this,

(28:33):
but if we want to get onthe bandwagon of actually recycling and trying our
best to fucking do some type ofgood, why can't, like we're already
in fucking dead already, who givesa shit? Just fucking charge that damn
fucking card from China and just keepgoing like who fucking cares. It's not

(28:56):
like we're going. Fucking dude,I'm sorry. That's another thing I'd get
pissed about. We're so many trillionsof dollars in debt, but if I
missed one fucking payment on my fuckingcar, they tow that bitch. You
think they're going to fucking toe fuckingAmerica. Somebody said that. I thought
it was actually brilliant. It waslike they were speaking for the spirit of

(29:18):
the age. They said, thecountry that's trillions of dollars in debt has
the audacity to give me a creditscore. I was like Bravo, Like
Bravo, Holy shit. And thennow they're saying that freaking taxes are going

(29:38):
to go up. Oh yeah,yeah, the percentage is going to go
They go yeah. It's like,I just like, we just can't we
never We've dug us such a deephole. Yeah, there's no way of
getting out of it. So thisis like this is that in like everybody's

(30:00):
life where they have to say it'slike no what, I'm just gonna do
what I gotta do and then justkeep like just keep going until I die.
Like I hate to say it,but that's how it is. It
sucks. There's no way of doinganything different, Like, cause if I
have to wake up tomorrow and haveto go to work, that's all that

(30:25):
all it has to matter. Whatelse can I do? I can't just
I just can't. I can't goI can't go on social media and bitch
about that. I can come here. I just talk. That's all I
can do. Yeah, that's allyou can do. But I can't,
Like, I can't literally go torallies and stuff and look what those fucking

(30:52):
do. They don't do shit,they don't do anything like. I hate
that. If somebody could literally cometo me and say we could do this,
by all means, I will helpsomebody to change things. But if
you don't come with a plan andjust complain about it, what are we
what are we here for? Whatare we doing? We're just rehashing the

(31:15):
problem. That's true. If youdon't, Yeah, I agree with you,
that's true. Yeah, I don'tknow. Man, it's a it's
a mess. Maybe there's no there'sno like solution, insight mm hmm,
except for they want to tax usmore for it. I mean, it

(31:37):
is what it is. Yeah,that's when the truth is stranger than fiction,
right there? H we uh,we got so many messes around us
that we don't know where to start. Yeah, yeah, I got nothing
else, man, what about you? Yeah, I'm good. Yeah,

(32:00):
I hope every I like through allof everything I had. Yeah, okay,
yeah, yeah uh but yeah,I don't know. Guys, like,
hopefully we get these out there likethis, these episodes get out there,
and we just kind of hopefully wecan get back to the spooky stuff,

(32:21):
because that's I would like to.But I feel like we're gonna need
your guys' help out there, Likethat's like that's the only way put us
in the direction. What do youwant to hear? Like we all we
keep seeing is just hoax after hoaxafter hoax and stuff that just doesn't make
sense. Yeah, so we're gonnaneed some type of help, like because

(32:44):
this is not it's it's just we'rewe're stumbling around in the dark. So
I don't I don't know what elseto like say there, Like yeah,
I mean I feel like you summedit up. Yeah, all right,
Well you guys out there, takecare of each other. We'll see you
back here on the next one.Let's wait for it. See you By George Dodor
