Chapter 1: What is the highlight of today's show?

0.325 - 36.457 Scott Adams

Stocks don't look so good, but maybe tomorrow will be better. Let me get my comments working here so I can see what you're up to. At least the people on Locals. I can see all of your comments, but the Locals comments come in faster. Today's show is going to be amazing. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time. But if you'd like to raise your experience to the levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass of tankard shells to sign a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

58.038 - 83.33 Scott Adams

And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Go. That is so good. So good. Got to adjust my lighting. Hold on. Lighting adjusted.

All right, you'd be surprised to hear that Dr. Alan Sears, he's a doctor, he says there's a compound in coffee called trigonoline, and it's a unique form of vitamin B3. And did you know that it'll increase your spatial learning and memory, support your nervous system development, enhance your mitochondrial function, and increase key neurotransmitters in the hippocampus of the brain?

Chapter 2: How does coffee benefit our brain?

111.556 - 145.878 Scott Adams

Well, I'm not sure about all that. I better test it. Let's see if I can increase the neurotransmitters in the hippocampus of my brain with coffee. Yeah, I feel it. I feel it. My hippocampus is going crazy right now. Yeah, it all works. You know, sometimes you hear this science and you think, but in the real world, does that work? Sure. Did you hear the horrible story

146.938 - 175.445 Scott Adams

of provocative, controversial podcaster Nick Fuentes who was almost murdered in his home. Did you hear this story? This is so shocking I didn't even talk about it for a day because I was just sort of looking at it like, oh my God. So somebody murdered, I guess, his family and then went on a road trip to apparently try to murder Nick Fuentes at his house. So knocks on his door.

Chapter 3: What happened to Nick Fuentes?

176.653 - 204.247 Scott Adams

And apparently the only reason that Fuentes didn't answer his door is that he was doing a podcast at that moment. All he had to do was answer the door and he'd be dead. All he had to do was answer his own front door while he was home. But he couldn't because he was on his podcast. It saved his life. Now, I would make the following advice.

205.9 - 235.446 Scott Adams

If you're producing content that's making people want to drive hundreds of miles to your house and kill you, you might want to think about that. I do like the fact that podcasters will say provocative and risky things because free speech allows it. As long as it's working in all directions, it can be a healthy thing. But just think about it. Just think about it. The reason that

0

236.215 - 264.76 Scott Adams

I don't worry so much about security. I should worry more about it probably. I mean, I have enough. But I don't think I give people a reason to kill me. Do I? Even people who mock me online, they don't have any reason to kill me. As far as I know, I mean, I'm doing the best I can to make sure that people see me as trying to be helpful. even if they don't like my politics.

0

265.181 - 290.747 Scott Adams

I like people to say, well, he's clearly trying to help. You know, that's not what I want, but he's obviously trying to help. That's usually good enough not to make somebody drive hundreds of miles to your house. But to be fair, when people are crazy, there's nothing you can do, right? Basically nothing you can do. So that's just a horrible little story.

0

292.991 - 326.664 Scott Adams

There's a story that I'm having a little bit trouble believing. I'm going to go further. I'm going to say I don't believe this is true. I think this is fake news. But there's a story, according to the Virginia Mercury, I guess some publication in Virginia, that the governor has approved or announced there's going to be this fusion nuclear plant in Virginia. Now, regular nuclear is fission, right?

327.824 - 352.896 Scott Adams

Fusion is the thing that doesn't exist. Am I wrong about that? So there's an announcement that they're going to start building a fusion power plant in Virginia. So I immediately went over to Google and I said to myself, have I been in a coma? Because I was almost positive. I followed the news on fusion. And I didn't think we were that close.

353.757 - 376.097 Scott Adams

I thought we'd done some demos that show that for a brief time, it can create more energy than it uses. But I didn't think we were anywhere as near a practical application where you could just approve it and build it. So given that if you do a Google search, it makes no indication that Fusion is near ready.

377.571 - 406.149 Scott Adams

Do you think they would announce something and Google doesn't even know the technology is there? I'm going to say this is fake news. So I'm going to go out on a limb and say, I think maybe they either wrote down fusion when they meant fission or something, right? Yeah, fusion has happened experimentally. That's what I knew. All right, so I think that's fake news. But...

407.179 - 434.528 Scott Adams

If it's not, I saw one post on the comments from Idea Man, who said the superconductors have been improving a lot, and that fusion depends on superconductors. It seems like one of the key components. And that MIT has been designing fusion plants based on the latest superconductors, and it might actually be practical.

Chapter 4: Why is the government designed to hide corruption?

2629.964 - 2657.292 Scott Adams

Musk may have already announced that he's going to do something that makes Soros' funding completely moot and irrelevant because he'll get it outfunded. So that's cool. Speaking of Elon Musk news, he's also saying that something called the AFD party in Germany is their only hope. Now the AFD party is the right-leaning party. How do you think an American publication describes the

0

2658.286 - 2683.845 Scott Adams

right-leaning party in Germany. Do you think they say, oh, they're basically just like MAGA, pretty popular? Yeah, I can see why Elon Musk would back them, because they're strong on immigration. And yeah, it makes sense, you know, because immigration looks like it's going to destroy the country. I don't know for sure, but probably they back nuclear power. Maybe the other parties don't, you know.

0

2684.232 - 2714.71 Scott Adams

So I can see why you love him and back him. So what does the mainstream press say about that? Well, it says that the party is anti-immigration. Now, is that the way you say it? Anti-immigration? No, that's what fucking assholes say. Nobody's anti-immigration. That's not even a thing. Nobody's anti-immigration. People are definitely on different sides about how tight to be, who to let in, and why.

0

2715.391 - 2741.953 Scott Adams

But nobody's anti. So the first thing is they're signaling that they're, you know, illegitimate press by saying anti-immigration. Then here's the second part. They're saying that this AFD party in Germany has, quote, historical connections to Nazi-era rhetoric. What? That's like saying that the Democrats... were the founders of the KKK.

0

2742.574 - 2771.51 Scott Adams

Which, by the way, somebody says on social media every freaking day, and it drives me crazy. No, I'm not going to judge the Democrats by something that long dead people did. If they're not doing it today, and they're clearly not backing the KKK today, would it be fair to say, I'm going to describe the Democrat Party. The Democrat Party is a party that has a, historical connections to the KKK.

2772.731 - 2797.351 Scott Adams

And there's nothing else you need to know. Would that be news? Well, it's true, but it's completely opposite of what reality is, which is the Democrats are very anti-KKK, obviously. So when I read the news saying that this party has historical connections to Nazi-era rhetoric and Elon Musk is maybe some kind of a Nazi because he supports them,

2798.032 - 2820.343 Scott Adams

I don't know the truth, but I'll tell you what it leads me to think. It leads me to think that this party might be the only thing that can save Germany. And I'm not terribly worried that they're all going to become Nazis. Because if the only thing you can say is they have some historical connection to bad rhetoric, historical connection. Come on. That's all you got?

2821.483 - 2846.533 Scott Adams

Now, to be fair, if there's more to this story and that party does worse things than I know, I would like to know that. Maybe I will revise my opinion. But if your summary of the party for how bad they are is anti-immigration, which is bullshit, and historical connections to bad talking, that's all you got? Those are your top two lines in criticizing that party? I'm not in favor of them.

2847.093 - 2868.73 Scott Adams

So somebody's going to say Adams is supporting the Nazi party. I don't know anything about them. I'm not supporting them. I'm just saying the reporting is strongly screaming that maybe they're not so bad. That's what the reporting is telling me. That's not my opinion. So, of course, Pelosi is on the bandwagon calling Trump a puppet of Musk.
