Chapter 1: What is the highlight of human civilization according to Scott Adams?

0.029 - 34.863 Scott Adams

All the lazy podcasters are sleeping in today, but not me, and not you either. So let's get our comments working here, and then we'll have some fun. Do-do-do-do-do-do. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-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.

34.983 - 53.367 Scott Adams

But if you'd like to try to take your experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need is a cup of mug or a glass of tank of Chelsea Stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

54.378 - 91.209 Scott Adams

And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now. Go. That was sip-tastic. Well, it's Sunday, and usually this happens on Saturday, but today... Owen Gregorian will be hosting a Spaces right after the show. Spaces is the audio service that's on the X platform.

0

Chapter 2: What is the simultaneous sip and why is it significant?

92.79 - 120.723 Scott Adams

So if you want to listen to that, go to X, look for Owen Gregorian, or you can see the link in my feed. Well, I wonder if there's any science that I didn't need to do because they could have just asked me. Oh, here's some. Eric Nolan writing in SciPost, he's my favorite. Did you know that people who inhaled DMT, they got rapid and lasting antidepressant effects?

0

122.224 - 148.893 Scott Adams

Do you know how I knew that that was going to be true? Because every single time they try a hallucinogen, it doesn't matter which one, and they test it on depressed people, every single time it works. And not only does it work, it has lasting benefits. Maybe not lifetime, but lasting. So maybe they didn't need to test this.

0

Chapter 3: What does Scott Adams think about DMT and depression?

148.993 - 177.947 Scott Adams

Maybe they could have just asked me, hey, what do you think would happen if we give this depressed guy some DMT? I'd be like, well, I think he'll get happier. That's what I think. You probably saw some of the news that a Mexican naval vessel crashed into the Brooklyn Bridge Saturday night. Now, the surprising part about this story is Mexico has a navy.

0

179.568 - 206.424 Scott Adams

How many of you knew that Mexico even had a navy? Do they? Well, I guess they do. This particular ship was a tall ship. So a sail ship with very tall sails. And I guess those sails were too tall. But I think there was some kind of engine problem or something that caused them to smash into the bridge. I saw that there were casualties, but then I saw some other reports.

0

208.125 - 244.083 Scott Adams

So I'm not sure exactly how many casualties, but they do have. I think most likely they do. So that was bad. In a related story, Red State Ward Clark is writing that the Mexican cartels are now dealing in the illicit fish trade. So they're becoming fishermen and they're squeezing out the non-cartel people and elbowing their way in. And they're in the fish business.

0

245.144 - 278.096 Scott Adams

Now, this raises some questions. Why is it that they're in the fish business? Is it because selling fish is as profitable as cocaine? I don't think so. I don't think the margins are nearly as good. Is it because they have so many recruits? who want to join the cartel, that they don't have enough cocaine to keep them all busy. It's like, all right, all right.

0

279.297 - 312.653 Scott Adams

Only the people with seniority get to do the cocaine. We're going to have to put you on something, sort of an entry-level thing. All right, okay, excellent. I got my tattoos. I'm ready to go. What kind of exciting criminal activity will I be involved in? Well, Juan, we're going to put you in fish. Excuse me? Fish. You'll be in fish. I didn't join the cartel to be in fish.

313.354 - 341.316 Scott Adams

I know, but got to start somewhere. If you do a good job in fish, we'll move you to, I don't know what, stealing cars. But eventually, you can work your way up to the cocaine businessman. But seriously, doesn't it seem to you that this is driven by too many people in the cartel? Like would they really enter the fish business unless they had more people than they had jobs for the people?

343.642 - 368.611 Scott Adams

watching the cartels diversify, it's telling us something, but I don't know exactly what it is. Now, I guess you could say that the cartels are just taking over every business in Mexico, and fish are just one of them. I suppose that's true. Well, there's a company I've told you about before, and I even wrote about it in one of my books, called Climeworks.

369.665 - 392.944 Scott Adams

And it's these giant sucking machines that suck the CO2 out of the air. Oh no, they'll take all my CO2 and my plants will die. Don't they know that CO2 is plant food? I just said that so you don't have to. But the idea was they were trying to reduce the risk of climate change by having gigantic machines that suck the CO2 out.

394.315 - 426.384 Scott Adams

But now that they've been running these machines for a while, it turns out that the machines add more CO2 to the... It adds more CO2 than it removes. You can't fail harder than that. I'm sorry, Climeworks. I really thought you had a chance. But no, it turns out that they're not that efficient. And it just makes things worse.

Chapter 4: Why are Mexican cartels entering the fish trade?

572.659 - 599.355 Scott Adams

There's a European firm that's going to use nuclear waste to generate their own nuclear power plants. And they're going to have power for a quarter million homes. It's a company called Thorizon. Now, you knew that this was a potential technology. It's something I've been talking about for years. Well, other people have been talking about it, and I've been telling you about it.

0

600.055 - 625.341 Scott Adams

But the idea is that nuclear waste still has 90% of its potential for power, but they don't have machines that can use the extra 90%. So there's a new kind of machine. I think it's a true kind of technology. It's one that you've heard of before.

0

628.602 - 657.388 Scott Adams

it's a molten salt reactor so they haven't built it yet but they got the funding they got the plans they're going to build it and uh this would be amazing it would power a quarter million households for 40 years with nuclear waste so you know how we worried about nuclear waste when i was a kid like that was the biggest thing people worried about Where are we going to put all that nuclear waste?

0

658.028 - 695.647 Scott Adams

Well, if this thing works, and I'm pretty sure it will, it turns out that nuclear waste is just your fuel for your thorium. Is it thorium? It's probably thorium because the name of the company is Thorizon. Okay. I thought I said that somewhere, but I'm looking at my notes. Yeah, I think it's a thorium. Well, Vivek Ramaswamy's bid to become governor of Ohio is looking a little more likely.

0

696.228 - 725.46 Scott Adams

According to the Daily Wire, the The only person who is maybe going to give him a good fight for the nomination on the Republican side is drop down. And that gives him a clear path to be the Republican nominee. So he's got a little competition, but nothing that would stop him. So Vivek Ramaswamy is one step closer. to being the governor of Ohio.

727.022 - 755.569 Scott Adams

So in case you're wondering why he's been so quiet, that's why he's going to be governor of Ohio. Do you think after he's governor of Ohio that he'll make a bid for the presidency? I'm going to say yes. I don't know if he'll do one or two terms as governor. But it seems like that will be his preparation for running for president. I think it's coming.

758.29 - 784.933 Scott Adams

Well, as you know, you may have seen this if you're on social media, Trump posted a video that's a compilation of some of the mysterious deaths that are linked to Hillary Clinton. Yeah. Now, every time I think that Trump can't be funnier or he can't be more provocative, he finds a way to do it.

785.733 - 801.659 Scott Adams

So you're probably aware that people have put together these lists of all these people who had mysterious deaths that were suspiciously good for Hillary Clinton. That's what people say. Now, it makes me wonder...

802.839 - 824.18 Scott Adams

could you could you pick any random high-level politician and find a bunch of deaths that you could argue well arguably this was good for that politician so they must have been behind it or is this unique to her because if it's if it's nothing but coincidence

Chapter 5: What are the inefficiencies of CO2 removal technologies?

1114.793 - 1118.896 Scott Adams

You don't know that at all. Because here's what I think.

0

1120.851 - 1147.599 Scott Adams

even if you had only heard that term in the restaurant business, which would be my case, I've only heard it in the restaurant business, do you think I would be confused if I saw a movie where somebody was a professional sniper and their partner or their boss said, once they had lined up the sights on somebody, the professional sniper, and the boss said, all right, 86 them.

0

1149.226 - 1179.51 Scott Adams

Do you think I would be confused about what 86 meant in that context? No, not at all. Suppose it was a professional hitman for the mafia. And I saw the movie and somebody said, all right, we're going to 86 the veto. Even if I'd never heard that word being used in that context, would I be confused about what it meant? No. No, that would be completely true because that's how words work.

0

1180.751 - 1212.511 Scott Adams

You can wax your car and nobody thinks that's assassinating the car. But if a mafia hitman said, I'm going to wax Vito, you would know that wax meant kill Vito. So the word means a different thing based on the context. Now here's the interesting thing. We don't think that Comey arranged the shells himself, right? Can you give me a fact check on that?

0

1213.292 - 1237.135 Scott Adams

I believe he just saw it and then thought, oh, I'm going to take a picture of this. Do you think that even if Comey would have definitely known if he'd heard 86 in the context of a hitman or the mafia, just like you and me, he would have definitely known that was a call for violence in those contexts.

1237.996 - 1255.774 Scott Adams

But when he saw seashells on the beach, are you still so sure that he thought that was a clear call to violence? Now, we can't believe what he says. He said, oh, I didn't realize that was interpreted as violence, so I took it down.

1256.695 - 1279.552 Scott Adams

But how many of you believe that Comey, being the sophisticated, clever guy you think he is, said to himself, I think I'll do a call for assassination with these seashells, and then I'll post it on Instagram, and everything will be fine? How many of you think that that was his thought process?

1280.392 - 1312.724 Scott Adams

That he was going to call for assassination, post it on social media, and that there wouldn't be any problem with that? Because that would be super stupid. It wouldn't be super clever. It would be super stupid. So is he super stupid? Or is he somebody who saw the context was seashells that somebody else put there and thought they probably weren't thinking about murdering him.

Chapter 6: How does Scott Adams analyze the climate change narrative?

1313.645 - 1329.34 Scott Adams

They probably just wanted to get rid of him. And he thought, oh, it's clever that you could put these two numbers together, 86 and 47. So, Here's my take. We don't know what he was thinking.

0

1330.361 - 1358.012 Scott Adams

But if you're 100% sure that Comey saw seashells on the beach and took a picture of them and thought that he was going to call for assassination and post it on Instagram and that would be a good play, that's not a good take. Not 100% sure. If you tell me, I think he might have been thinking that, I would say, he might have been.

0

1359.153 - 1386.688 Scott Adams

If you say, he might not have been thinking that and he was just not really thinking of anything and he didn't think it through, I would say, maybe. But if you're positive, you're 100% sure you know what he was thinking when he did it. That's a terrible take. It's a terrible take. Could you be right? Yes. Yes, you could.

0

1387.708 - 1418.569 Scott Adams

Am I telling you that he definitely was not thinking that it was his clever way to kill Trump? I'm not saying that. Because I'm not saying I can read his mind. What I am saying is, if it were me, and I definitely know that if you're using 86 to talk to a hitman, it would be about violence. If I saw some seashells on the beach, I wouldn't necessarily connect that with any violent thought.

0

1420.578 - 1442.393 Scott Adams

But it doesn't mean he thought that way. Now, would you agree that this topic is really fucking boring? Because we don't know what he was thinking. It's not going to go anywhere. As long as there's a common usage of the word 86 and he's not even the one who arranged the shells, he's not going to get arrested.

1443.694 - 1478.121 Scott Adams

It's just something to talk about where we all just say the same fucking things over and over again. Oh, but don't you know that he's so smart? He's so smart that he would know that that means kill him. Okay. You don't have to say it over and over again. All right, so how about we just never talk about this again? Agreed? All right. Mario Noffel was calling out something from SciTechDaily.

1479.48 - 1509.265 Scott Adams

Apparently, there's what could be a really big discovery. So they found a way to use something called tin perovskite, which is a mix of tin and crystal-like structures, to split water into clean hydrogen. And apparently it's stable, which is a big deal. And it's efficient and cost-effective. And you could basically just use this to create unlimited hydrogen.

1511.106 - 1536.438 Scott Adams

Now, the next seashell arrangement, we'll talk about voting for the budget. Okay. See how mad you're getting? See, if you're feeling anger about that Comey topic, it's because you know you're wrong. That's what's causing the anger. You know you didn't have a good take.

1537.338 - 1570.516 Scott Adams

And I called you out on it, and you're like... Anyway, so apparently this would... You can use just sunlight and water and turn it into hydrogen, and it could be this huge leap toward... green energy. I wonder if it's real. Seems almost too good, doesn't it? But maybe, maybe we'll see. Well, you know how the Democrats are having trouble finding a leader? They all seem to be losers.

Chapter 7: What are Scott Adams's thoughts on Trump's Hillary compilation video?

2247.652 - 2273.867 Scott Adams

So I think we can find out in 2028. So as you know, Representative James Comer is going to bring in people to testify to Congress about the auto pen. So, you know, Biden used the auto pen or somebody used the auto pen. We don't know who. And it was signing the things that Biden should have been signing.

0

2275.237 - 2303.663 Scott Adams

And apparently most of the signatures were auto pen, which raises the question, who was actually in charge? But I did a little bit of research. Well, actually somebody else grokked it and posted it to find out what is the process for getting something signed with the auto pen? Wouldn't you assume that even if the president were on vacation or something,

0

2304.451 - 2333.813 Scott Adams

that the president would still have to sign something. And what they'd sign would be, instead of the bill, which would not be physically where the president is if they're on vacation or something, they'd sign a little, at least a memo. They would say, I authorize you to use the audio pen for this purpose. And then there would be further documentation of who got that memo and when they executed it.

0

2335.785 - 2371.675 Scott Adams

Now, did James Comer already get all that? So wouldn't he have by now requested the trail, the paper trail? Because there would be a paper trail. It's not just that suddenly there's an auto pen signature. That's not a thing. The only way the AutoPen is going to be used is if there's a chain of orders that you can see from the top guy to the AutoPen operator.

0

2372.195 - 2404.889 Scott Adams

It's going to be locked up and there's probably only one person who has access to it. So how do we not already know that chain. Or it could be that we don't trust that even if Biden signed a memo saying use the auto pen, that he knew what he was signing. So maybe this exercise is more about embarrassing the Democrats and keeping this in the news. I don't think this is going to turn into anything.

2406.49 - 2438.669 Scott Adams

It doesn't seem to me that at the end of this we're going to find out that there was somebody else running the country. Probably not. But it certainly keeps the Democrats on their back feet. There's a study, the source is CBS on this. Well, CBS is writing about it, but they didn't do the study. That three days of silence makes your brain grow new memory cells.

2439.609 - 2446.976 Scott Adams

So researchers found that when your brain gets quiet, it gets smarter, basically.

2447.817 - 2474.947 Scott Adams

so that you should do uh two hours of real quiet a day where you turn off your devices and you're not talking to anybody and just sitting there quietly now how many of you have two hours extra per day that you weren't doing something important and you could just sit there quietly do any of you have two hours a day that you could do that you know i uh

2477.352 - 2504.753 Scott Adams

I've had recommended to me by very smart people that I should get up and meditate for an hour before I get busy. And I thought to myself, who has an hour when they wake up? I'd love to have an hour to just sit there, but who has an hour to do that? I don't know. I'm sure there's something to it, but... Well, Trump said...

Chapter 8: What is the controversy surrounding James Comey's actions?

2884.167 - 2917.339 Scott Adams

So I guess the real question is, Why would Iran even want to get so close to a nuclear weapon? It's to use it. Or to use it as a threat. And that would be almost as good. So stop asking stupid questions. That's just stupid. All right. So it looks to me like there's no way to make a deal with Iran. So I would expect no peace deals. All right, that's all I got for today.

0

2917.9 - 2951.837 Scott Adams

And I'll remind you that Owen Gregorian is going to have his spaces right after this. So I'm going to say hi to the locals people privately, but that'll just give Owen enough time to set up his spaces and then we can meet over there. Okay. I'll probably drop into that as well. All right, everybody. Happy Sunday. Thanks for joining. Is Comey claiming he found them arranged that way?

0

2952.717 - 2978.152 Scott Adams

Nobody's claiming that he arranged them. So yes, I believe the story is that he found it, not that he did it. That's my understanding. All right, EJ, drop dead. All right, everybody else, we'll see you at Owens. And let me just wrap it on locals.
