Chapter 1: What is the significance of the simultaneous sip?

0.049 - 22.958 Scott Adams

human civilization it's called coffee with scott adams and you've never had a better time but if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that only spacex has experienced all you need for that is a copper mug or a glass of tanker chelsea steiner canteen jugger flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee

23.894 - 57.808 Scott Adams

And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine dinner of the day. The thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and darn it, it happens right now. Go. Thanks, Paul. Everything is working swimmingly. Well, after today's live stream, which you will just love, Owen Gregorian will be hosting a Spaces on X. That's the audio thing.

0

58.309 - 88.273 Scott Adams

So look for Owen Gregorian right after the live stream. It's a Scott Adams after party Spaces. So you can talk about either what the news is or I suppose anything that seems interesting. You might know that SpaceX has already launched its rocket to rescue the astronauts that are stuck on the International Space Station. And they should be back on Sunday. Boy, I hope that works.

0

90.434 - 119.01 Scott Adams

Don't you think the country needs just that? You know, like a little one thing we cannot argue about. It's like, oh, some astronauts got rescued. Will the Democrats have a problem with it? Do you think Pelosi and Schumer and the rest will say, you know, we really should have left them there because there wasn't enough diversity or something. They're going to find a reason not to like it.

Chapter 2: What are Elon Musk's plans for Mars?

121.172 - 147.184 Scott Adams

Well, Elon Musk gave us an update about his Mars plans, and he says that by the end of next year, he plans to send a starship to Mars. So at the end of next year, he's going to land a rocket with Mars, but no people. He's going to put an Optimus, one of the robots. Well, at least one. I don't know how many robots, but at least one.

0

148.185 - 170.376 Scott Adams

And I'm thinking to myself, wouldn't the most logical thing to do would be to ship a whole bunch of robots up there, if you could keep them powered? and then have the robots build you your human-qualified space station? Because you don't want people up there until it's habitable.

0

171.217 - 200.043 Scott Adams

So I also think, what would happen if you get several robots up there, and then something happens to the space program or whatever, and they just decide to build their own civilization on Mars? Don't you think there's a non-zero chance that the Earth will evolve one way and Mars will evolve completely with robots? They'll just build some more of themselves and say, you know what?

0

200.723 - 231.196 Scott Adams

We could use a few more extra robots and then just build their own up there. I don't know. Probably it would be too hard to get the parts to build your own robot, but I like thinking about it. I like thinking about a robot planet. Maybe. Maybe. Well, according to reports, we're seeing this in the Gateway Pundit, apparently gas prices are now below $3 in 31 states. Not my state.

0

Chapter 3: Why are gas prices dropping in the U.S.?

233.517 - 264.029 Scott Adams

I'm still over $5, of course, because California's got crazy taxes on top of the gas and whatever else. But, yeah, it's like a new low, at least a recent low. So the national average price for a gallon of regular gas sat at $3.07, according to AAA. Now, that's pretty good. I haven't seen, you know, in California, like I say, where gas is always twice as expensive.

0

264.669 - 286.533 Scott Adams

So the last time I saw $3 a gallon, that was a long time ago. A lot longer than you, if you're in one of these states that's already seen $3.00. Anyway, the U.S. Postal Service has agreed to work with Doge to figure out how to get more efficient. Epoch Times is reporting that.

0

Chapter 4: What is happening with the U.S. Postal Service?

288.033 - 308.431 Scott Adams

It looks like they're going to cut 10,000 workers and they're going to try to figure out how to stop doing all the crazy things that weren't economical. But did you realize that the post office was losing $100 to $200 billion a year? Does that even sound like it could be real?

0

309.952 - 335.193 Scott Adams

Given the size of our deficit, you don't think the easiest thing to fix would be to get the post office not to need any more subsidies? I feel like all the other shipping companies make money. FedEx makes money. UPS makes money. I just don't see the reason for a post office anymore.

0

336.344 - 363.75 Scott Adams

And I heard a lot of people say that they take their mail directly to the garbage and sort of stand over it and drop most of it in the garbage and keep the one bill or something that came to you. But I have a rule that I won't let mail in my house. The ugliest thing you can do to your own house is have a place, usually in the kitchen, where people drop the mail.

0

365.1 - 387.185 Scott Adams

And then it just becomes a pile of garbage. It's literally just a pile of garbage. So I set up a station in my garage so that when I go to the mailbox and come back, I've got a little sorting area in the garage that is less of a mess than if it were in a house. And it's right next to the garbage. So I basically put all of it in the garbage.

0

387.686 - 410.854 Scott Adams

Now, how hard would it be for the post office to say, you know what? we're not even going to deliver any first-class mail anymore. We're just not going to do it. And then just say, if you want to see it, you have to go online or look at it on your phone or something. Maybe the right solution is just not to have a post office. Maybe.

411.974 - 437.288 Scott Adams

Well, in other news, Bill Burr, the comedian, is a freaking idiot. He was on The Breakfast Club. Now, this was weeks ago, in February, I guess, but I just saw the clip. And apparently he actually believes that Musk intentionally gave a Nazi salute at that event. Now, he sold it to me like he really believes it.

438.289 - 450.876 Scott Adams

And I'm so tired of arguing, well, you know, maybe you saw a clip that was out of context, or maybe the news said so, so you believe it. I can't do it anymore.

451.797 - 484.611 Scott Adams

You're a freaking idiot if you think that anybody in America, any public figure, if you think that anybody, whether it's Musk or Trump, anybody, if you think that they got on stage and gave a Nazi salute, you're so dumb that I just need to mock you. You are so dumb. You should never talk about politics again. That is way below the basic line of understanding anything about the world.

485.491 - 512.702 Scott Adams

If you think that really happened in the real world, do you think he believed the fine people hoax? Of course he did. Do you think he believed the drinking bleach hoax? Of course he did. Do you think he believed the Russia collusion hoax? Of course he did. You know, I've always been a big fan of his comedy, but man, Some people shouldn't talk in public, and if they do, they have to get mocked.

Chapter 5: What did Bill Burr say about Elon Musk?

1111.912 - 1139.431 Scott Adams

it's really changing law and it just cannot be legal to which i said oh damn i didn't think he was going to sway me on this because my first thought was well you know freedom of speech you know all the news programs have a bias you know you can't really do much about it it's just something we have to live with and then i thought how much it affected his freedom if he had not won the presidency

0

1140.359 - 1167.723 Scott Adams

He would have been put in jail by judges who believe the news was real. Let me say it again. He would have been put in jail by judges who believe the news is real. The gullible ones, the dumb ones, you know, the Bill Burr of judges. If they thought that he's a really hiller, you don't think that makes a difference in their decisions? Of course it does.

0

1169.332 - 1198.853 Scott Adams

so if you have judges who are clearly being influenced clearly i mean just obviously being influenced by what they think is real news that is a problem and it's well beyond free speech because free speech doesn't put you in jail for life this would the the collusion of the you know democrat leaning press could have put Trump in jail for the rest of his life.

0

1199.774 - 1228.462 Scott Adams

So does he have a good reason to say this can't be illegal? He does. I think it is illegal. And I don't know how he could make it illegal. But boy, does he have a good point. You know, if it weren't him speaking, it just wouldn't seem that persuasive. But we all watched. And we all watched the lawfare and the bad behavior. And we know that that could have put him in jail for the rest of his life.

0

1230.023 - 1259.577 Scott Adams

Only by winning did he avoid that. So, yeah, he has a point. Now, of course, the problem would be that somebody's going to say, but what about Fox News and Breitbart? They're leaning the other way. Well, That's why the free speech argument probably is going to win, because you really couldn't criminalize it. But he's got a good point. It's dangerous, dangerous stuff to some people.

1261.217 - 1295.253 Scott Adams

He also said, Trump did at the DOJ, he said that it was a great honor for me to fire, I will tell you this, a great honor to fire James Comey. A great, great honor. There was no better day. But again, because he thought he got law-fared, and he did. But here's where it gets interesting. So on CNN, Jake Tapper was talking to one of the panelists that Scott Jennings is always dunking on.

1295.882 - 1322.701 Scott Adams

So they've got a new dumb woman. I think they hire somebody who's like extra crazy and dumb. So I don't even know her name and I don't want to learn it because she's just dumb. But so Jake Tapper is talking to the dumb woman and he says, and this was unusual, so I'm going to give Jake credit for this. He said that you don't have to be MAGA to see that Trump has some, he has a point.

1324.039 - 1347.186 Scott Adams

And then Jake listed several things in which, yeah, it does look a little law fairy. So he mentioned the Strzok and Page texts look really suspicious. You mentioned the FISA abuses. Correct. You mentioned the weirdness with the Carter Page stuff. In other words, running an op to try to, you know, get Trump.

1347.686 - 1374.644 Scott Adams

They mentioned the Alvin Bragg situation where he basically made up a felony out of nothing. Now, These are things that Jake Tapper mentioned off the top of his head that, you know, even from the perspective of CNN, these look law fairy. And, and I appreciated that. So what did the dumb woman say? Did the dumb woman say, Oh yeah, actually that's a pretty good point.

Chapter 6: What is the truth about earnings inequality between genders?

1542.872 - 1570.459 Scott Adams

He was calling out Pelosi as basically a, I'll use my own word, but basically a liar. Because Pelosi was saying that the continued resolution was going to destroy the world in a variety of vague ways. And Cuomo was like reading Pelosi's statement. And it was stuff like, and this will ruin that. And Chris is like, how? How is it going to ruin that? And it will be terrible for this.

0

1571.363 - 1597.519 Scott Adams

And Chris says, how? In what way is it going to be terrible for that? And it will be a debacle in many ways. And Chris says, how? How in the world? And then he explains, which most of you already know, that the continuing resolution, which is the budget, is just a continuation from the Biden budget with very minor tweaks, barely enough worth mentioning.

0

1598.139 - 1620.112 Scott Adams

So it's basically the same level as it was and almost the same funding. I mean, just very small changes. So he basically just completely... called her out for being essentially just a propagandist who's creating nothing, creating something out of nothing. So that was good.

0

1620.953 - 1656.138 Scott Adams

Now, there's sort of a larger thing that's happening, which is that the best way for any Democrat to get any attention is to criticize another Democrat. Have you noticed that? We'll give you more examples as we go. Anyway, there's a prominent polling company, according to the Western Journal, that's going to close down. Let's see, it was Monmouth University. They've got their own polling.

0

1656.718 - 1691.379 Scott Adams

So the Monmouth University Polling Institute has been operating since 2005, but they decided to close up shop. Now, they were not exactly one of your most accurate pollsters lately, certainly for presidential stuff. They were in 2024 election about, you know, Trump. They were off by nearly six percentage points. Now, that's really off. So they're just going to close up.

1691.88 - 1719.081 Scott Adams

So now we've heard that 538 is closed. We heard that these guys are closing. Wasn't there another story just the other day where another polling company was closing? And then there was that Ann Seltzer poll that came out of there was such an outlier during the last weeks of the election. And that looks, you know, I don't think it's closed, but sort of disgraced.

1719.972 - 1743.716 Scott Adams

So it's really a bad year for polling companies. I think the truth about what they really are meant to do is sort of coming out. But it makes me wonder, was the Monmouth University Polling Institute ever real? Were they just bad at what they do so they didn't get good results? Or is it a complete coincidence

1744.537 - 1773.038 Scott Adams

that they were bad in the direction that propaganda would want them to be bad at, to act like the other side is going to win. I don't know. I don't know if they were always bad or if they just had a bad year, but they're out of business now. The Hill was talking about yet another poll. This is a CNN poll conducted by SSRS.

1774.557 - 1805.349 Scott Adams

And it found that 59% of respondents disapprove of Trump's handling of relations with Moscow. Now, how many of those people they asked are experts at negotiating and persuasion? Probably none. So what do their opinions mean to us? It would be like asking these people, what is your opinion of quantum science or quantum computers?
