Chapter 1: What is a simultaneous sip and why is it important?

0.009 - 36.877 Scott Adams

It's called a simultaneous sip. It happens now. Go. Thank you, Paul. How's my sound? I think I fixed it. There was something I should have clicked, but today I remembered. All right. Let me make sure I can see all your comments. And then we're going to have a good time. There we go. Perfectly. It looks like the stock market's up. Things are looking good for a Tesla stock. All right.

Chapter 2: How does coffee consumption relate to health?

36.897 - 68.048 Scott Adams

Did you know that up to three cups of coffee a day may reduce heart disease risk according to no Ridge, but that's not the exciting part. Apparently the study says that coffee can reduce all cause any cause of death. So if you drink coffee, there's a 12% chance of dying. from anything. Now, this was good news because I like to keep a coffee maker next to the gun safe. So you should do that too.

0

68.188 - 97.182 Scott Adams

Keep some coffee near the gun safe. You get an extra 12% safety if you get a home invasion. The gun is good for protecting your house. But 12% better chance of survival if you do the coffee. I think that's science. French press is acceptable. I'll be doing like a sign language thing, except for NPCs. So whenever I say something that needs to be translated into NPC, I'll do that.

0

98.103 - 129.223 Scott Adams

So when I said you should have a coffee maker next to your gun safe, the NPCs would say, French press, French press is better. All right, so that's translation for NPCs. After the show today, remember to look for A spaces event with Owen Gregorian, who will be on X doing his spaces. That's the audio only thing. So if you go to Owen's spaces, yeah, if you go to Owen's X account, you'll find it.

0

130.124 - 154.736 Scott Adams

Owen Gregorian. Just search for it if you can't find it. Naval had a funny exchange on X. This is one of my favorite exchanges. So Naval starts with a post. He says, if you're a high agency person, there's never been a better time to be alive. And I'm thinking, huh? Yeah, that's probably true.

0

155.357 - 176.182 Scott Adams

If you're a high agency person, because when there's so much change, you know, AI and robots and all that, in theory, there should be enormous opportunities like we've never seen before. So yeah, if you're a high agency, in other words, you're highly competent and You're willing to do things on your own without being prompted. You're a high-agency person.

Chapter 3: What makes someone a high agency person?

176.222 - 202.056 Scott Adams

There's never been a better time to be alive. And some random guy goes into the comments and says he wants to help Naval think better. Now, if you've been following my stream, you know that Naval is one of the smartest people on the planet. So a random comment guy comes into the comments after Naval says, If you're a high agency person, there's never been a better time to be alive.

0

202.796 - 232.72 Scott Adams

Random guy says, I think it depends more on where you live than when you live. Naval comments to that comment. If you're a high agency, the first decision you make is where you live. And mic drop. Yes, if you're a high agency person. You wouldn't even ask that question. You would move to where you need to be to do whatever it is you need to do. How do I know that's true?

0

232.74 - 261.145 Scott Adams

Well, we've all moved to the Bay Area because that's where the action is. I moved to the Bay Area because growing up in upstate New York wasn't going to give me much. And I'm a high agency person. So the first thing you do is get out of wherever you are. and get to someplace better. Good advice. Meanwhile, according to Clarence Oxford of BioFuel Daily, you all read that, right?

Chapter 4: What is the significance of CO2 in food production?

262.346 - 286.954 Scott Adams

There's a new breakthrough, scientific breakthrough, that converts CO2 using electricity into protein-rich food. So this is something I've been thinking about for years. I've been thinking, what would happen if somebody figured out how to take the CO2 out of the air and turn it into a commercial product.

0

287.555 - 313.716 Scott Adams

Now, that's already happening, but the commercial products are kind of weird little industrial places where you use some derivative of CO2. But it's not like something that you and I would be using. But what if... Somebody really does commercialize this, and there's a way to make a protein, like a healthy protein you could eat just out of the sky. You just suck it out of the air.

0

314.716 - 337.588 Scott Adams

Well, I'd like to take a moment to do the sign language for the NPCs. Don't you know that the CO2 is really plant food? And if you take the plant food out, the entire world will die because the plant food is not there to eat the plants, which would be growing from the CO2.

0

339.989 - 366.056 Scott Adams

So, yeah, all we have to do is make a way to eat the air, and somebody will suck all of the air out of the sky until there's no CO2 left and all our plants will die, and we'll starve to death. But otherwise, it's all good news. Meanwhile, China plans to put a solar farm in space to orbit the Earth. And it would be like a kilometer-wide solar panel up in space.

0

366.636 - 395.105 Scott Adams

And then it would beam down the energy so it can be used on Earth. And it should be as much power as, you know, basically as much energy as all the oil ever extracted. So this one project for China... should make more energy than all the oil that's ever been extracted. I'd like to start by saying, I don't believe that. That doesn't even sound a little bit true.

395.125 - 416.501 Scott Adams

I mean, it might be cool and it might work, but really, it's going to be more than all the, no. Then, they're expected to be completed by 2035. coinciding with their plans to have a lunar research base going to the moon. So the space race is on.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of China's solar farm in space?

418.501 - 448.567 Scott Adams

And, you know, if the United States planned to make a gigantic solar thing in space, wouldn't you worry that that's a little too easy to shoot down and a little too easy to get hit by some debris? It just doesn't feel like it's safe. And I also wonder, how do you beam energy from space to Earth? Do you beam it on a microwave? What is the mechanism by which you beam it?

0

449.588 - 467.314 Scott Adams

And also I wonder, what happens if the beam gets misplaced? So presumably that beam would have to be very targeted towards some kind of thing that could turn that beam into energy, earthly energy. But Wouldn't it also be a death ray?

0

469.736 - 495.292 Scott Adams

If you were creating so much energy from this space-based thing, and you had to beam it with some kind of energy beam down to Earth, wouldn't that energy beam be configurable to be a space laser and destroy anything they want? Or am I wrong about that? So I wouldn't be surprised if something happens to their solar farm, if you know what I mean.

0

496.152 - 521.319 Scott Adams

Hey, it's a bummer what happened to your solar farm that's really a space-based weapon. Maybe. As you know, the presidential inauguration has been moved indoors, but the only people who will be allowed in now, to the indoor part, would be the politicians. Boring. The rest of them will have to go to the nearby stadiums where Trump will show up after.

0

522.159 - 550.266 Scott Adams

But I guess they'll watch it at Capital One Arena. Is Capital One Arena covered or uncovered? Is that a covered or uncovered space? They're not just taking all the non-politicians and making them stand in the cold in another place, are they? Can somebody tell me if it's covered? Because that really changes the story if it's not. Uh... All right, well, look in the comments. You'll find out.

Chapter 6: What are the concerns about indoor presidential inaugurations?

552.387 - 586.017 Scott Adams

They're saying that Michelle Obama is not going to go. I heard different things about Barack Obama. Is Barack Obama going to the inauguration or no? If he goes, he'll be going without Michelle Obama. But I know they were going to have a number of balls. No, shut up. No, I'm talking about where you dance and listen to music. Yeah, there'll be a number of balls. But Michelle won't be there.

0

586.297 - 600.648 Scott Adams

No, they're not related. Stop it. Shut up. That's not even funny. Those two comments are not related. There'll be balls. But Michelle won't go there. Those are just two separate stories. If you're putting them together, you're a terrible person. You're a terrible person.

0

602.358 - 630.516 Scott Adams

Meanwhile, Tucker Carlson reminds us it's been six months since the Butler assassination attempt on Trump, and what we know about it so far is nothing. Nothing. We don't know anything. Six months later. Is there any doubt that this guy was associated either with some other country that our people don't want to mention yet, for whatever reason, or...

0

631.914 - 656.267 Scott Adams

there was just obviously an insider job, meaning somebody in our government and or intelligence agency and or Democrat was behind it. Do you really think we don't know anything about this? I mean, the public doesn't. But do you believe that the authorities don't know anything about it? I don't know. I guess we couldn't crack into his phone apps, so I guess there's nothing we can do.

0

657.127 - 677.146 Scott Adams

Didn't find any emails. I guess we're done here. Really? I'll tell you what I would do. If I were Trump, I would ask to talk to him. I'd make sure it's safe. He's behind a bar or something or all chained up or whatever it takes. But if I were Trump, I'd want to talk to him because I'd want to ask, why did you do this?

678.347 - 706.401 Scott Adams

It's really hard to have terrible thoughts about somebody who you tried to kill who checks in on you and says, I just really want to understand why. Did you believe the news? Did you think I was going to steal your democracy? Oh, you think he's dead? Well, so, all right, let's make a prediction. He will commit suicide in jail. What do you think?

707.181 - 728.437 Scott Adams

So I don't think he's gone yet, but do you think there'll be a sudden unexplained suicide in jail? The one day the cameras don't work and everybody fell asleep. Oh, it feels like that play is coming. We should say, but Trump's charisma is like a superpower.

729.878 - 750.366 Scott Adams

If the actual president of the United States that you shot came to visit you in jail and ask you some questions because he genuinely just wanted to know, like just curious. Now, the kid isn't going to give up any secrets, right? If somebody helped him, that's not going to happen. But wouldn't you like to know if this was just all him? Because I think that would come through.

750.945 - 773.157 Scott Adams

Like you would see the hatred or something. You say, oh, I get it. This was all you. You know, even if there was somebody else helping, it would look like at least he was just doing it for his own reasons, maybe with help. I'd want to know that. New York Times did a story about the hiding of Biden's mental decline. I remember the Wall Street Journal did a story. They talked to 50 sources about

Chapter 7: What recent controversies surround Joe Biden's mental state?

909.334 - 932.05 Scott Adams

Yep, here's the original. Yep, here's what they added to make it look better. Now, the claim is that that was election interference. And I understand why CBS might want to settle, because they don't want to give up all their communications. If they don't settle, then Trump can get their emails and see what they're really saying behind the scenes.

0

932.955 - 954.347 Scott Adams

So they might be saying, you know, for a few million dollars, wouldn't it be better if nobody read our internal communications? So you might win this, but the question I ask is, how is this different from every other fake news? If I turn on CNN or MSNBC, it's nothing but fake news. It's just one fake thing after another.

0

954.747 - 979.158 Scott Adams

Narrative, narrative, narrative, out of context, leave out the good things, don't talk about the bad things. How is that not election interference? CBS had one show in which I personally wouldn't have even noticed the edit. Do you think anybody voted for or didn't vote for it because of that one answer? If you put me on the jury, I'm not even sure I would find them guilty.

0

979.178 - 1000.271 Scott Adams

Because I'd say, seriously? It's bad. It's bad that they edited it. But election interference? Even if they intended it, it couldn't possibly have happened. One answer? All they did is make one answer look like it was coherent, a little more coherent than the actual one. That's not that bad.

0

1000.971 - 1023.571 Scott Adams

It seems like there's so many other things that were election interference from the laptop signatories right down the list. So I don't really understand the standard for what makes fake news interference. I don't think there is a standard. So honestly, if you put me on the jury, I'd say innocence. Probably.

1023.711 - 1049.416 Scott Adams

I mean, I haven't heard of the facts, so the jury is probably only looking to see if there's factual support. But still, factual or not, it couldn't have made much difference. Well, just to prove her incompetence, you probably heard that Kamala Harris posted that the Equal Rights Amendment is the 28th Amendment and is the law of the land.

1050.168 - 1077.792 Scott Adams

Now, that's because Joe Biden signed some kind of executive order to make the 28th Amendment the law of the land. Except there's a reader note on X that goes like this. There is no 28th Amendment. The president does not have the authority to declare amendments to the U.S. Constitution, and the National Archivist is not ratifying it. Now, how do you explain...

1079.144 - 1108.253 Scott Adams

that the staffs for both Biden and Kamala Harris, there was not anybody on the staff willing to say, you can't change the Constitution with an executive order. That literally everybody knew. How did they not say, oh, don't post that or don't say that or don't sign that executive order? The only explanation I have is that they hate Joe Biden and they hate Kamala Harris.

1108.933 - 1132.318 Scott Adams

Because I've got a feeling that relations have soured between the campaign and the staff and the politicians. So it seems to me that their staff just totally threw them under the bus and may have actually been laughing about it. It's like, yeah, I just let them say that you can change the Constitution with an executive order.

Chapter 8: How is CBS involved in election interference allegations?

1182.399 - 1208.579 Scott Adams

But what if this 28th Amendment thing is telling you what it was really like? Like just absolutely flat out stupid. Because it could be. That could be the reality. They were both just flat out stupid. One of them has a mental cognitive problem, which is a little different. Some say Kamala Harris is going to get a big book deal. Who would buy her book?

0

1210.32 - 1232.194 Scott Adams

What exactly would the biggest loser in the world have to tell me? Don't be like me? I don't know. We heard yesterday that... Schumer was one of the active ones trying to get Biden to drop out. I guess he went all the way to Biden's house and told them that his legacy would be better if he dropped out and blah, blah, blah.

0

1232.854 - 1257.832 Scott Adams

But allegedly and reportedly, Schumer actually told Biden that his own pollsters, the internal polls that you and I don't get to see, gave him only a 5% chance of beating Trump. So that was about the time they were talking about getting rid of him. And I'm told by the news that Biden was unaware that his own internal polling only gave him 5%.

0

1258.412 - 1284.356 Scott Adams

Now, if I told you that out of the context, you'd say, well, that's not true. Of course he knows what the polling says. He's paying for it. They pay for it because they really care what it says. But now that you've heard that they They think they changed the Constitution with an executive order. I feel like anything's possible. Anything's possible.

0

1284.816 - 1320.812 Scott Adams

It could be that Biden was never shown the polling. And then the next question is, what else are they not telling him? Or didn't they tell him? If they didn't tell him his own polling, what was going on? And the only reason I can think that they wouldn't tell him that is probably because they hated him. Or they didn't tell him anything, so it was no different than everything else. I don't know.

1321.453 - 1351.519 Scott Adams

According to Jeffrey Epstein's old cellmate, the feds offered Epstein a deal for coming up with some dirt on Trump. And Epstein didn't have any. Now, that's coming from somebody who's a four-time murderer, so I'm not sure you can trust him, but I think he was an ex-cop. And apparently, this is, again, this is hearsay, so I don't know how much credibility to put it.

1352.0 - 1385.229 Scott Adams

But according to the cellmate, Epstein told them, he says, but the government told me I don't have to prove what I say about Trump as long as Trump's people can't disprove it. And that Epstein considered, quote, making stuff up to save his skin. What? Now, again, remember, this is not a source that you should put too much credibility in. Prison guy, murdered four people, who knows?

1385.949 - 1418.063 Scott Adams

But I'd certainly like to know if that was true. Wouldn't you? Meanwhile, James Comer says he's referring Hunter Biden and James Biden for criminal prosecution based on, I assume, either lying to Congress or something about the crime family. But I'm a little confused. Isn't Hunter pardoned of everything? Or are they outside the window or outside the domain that he's pardoned for?

1418.427 - 1447.027 Scott Adams

So I don't know how the Hunter part works. But I assume that the brother, James, James Biden, will get a pardon maybe today. Biden can still do a pardon today, right? I think it's coming. Well, here's a story that blew my mind. Robbie Starbuck, as you know, he's been really successful in getting companies to roll back their DEI programs. But he looked into the U.S. State Department.
