Chapter 1: What is the current state of the stock market?

0.629 - 49.633 Scott Adams

Let's check on the stock market. It looks a little bit flat. That's all right. It was up yesterday. So let's check on our comments, make sure I can see what you're saying. I have to warn you that today my mental capacity is about 50% normal. So if I sound like a host on MSNBC... It's not your imagination. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

49.753 - 75.736 Scott Adams

It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. And I'm pretty sure you've never had a better time. But if you'd like to take a chance on rising... Let's say lifting. Lifting your experience to new levels. All you need is a cup or a mug or a glass or tank or gels for starting a canteen, jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

76.336 - 109.621 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, that's right, the simultaneous sip. And it happens now. Go. Go. All right, now I'm good. I wonder if there are any scientific studies that they didn't need to do because they could just ask me. Oh, here we go. Eric Nolan in SciPost is writing.

Chapter 2: What is the simultaneous sip?

111.182 - 145.889 Scott Adams

There's a new study that says that sexual activity before bed Improves objective sleep quality. So did anybody besides me know that sex before bed allows you to get to sleep better? Apparently it works whether you have a partner or not. Is there anybody who didn't know that? That might be the most well-known fact in all of human history.

0

148.47 - 179.739 Scott Adams

You could look for the rest of your life trying to find somebody who didn't know that, and you would never find anybody who didn't know it. And they did a study on it. Oh, my God. Okay. Well, Starship launch was either successful or unsuccessful, depending on how you define success. If you're a business insider, you'd say it was unsuccessful because you don't like Elon Musk.

0

180.339 - 210.117 Scott Adams

But if you were more science and technology oriented, you'd say it got further than ever before, and they learned a bunch of things, and they're well along. In other words, it was a failure that taught them a bunch of things, which is why they do it. They're trying to learn a bunch of things so that the next time they do it, it gets a little bit further.

Chapter 3: What new technology is changing heating and cooling?

211.018 - 241.586 Scott Adams

So let's call it a success because they learned a bunch of things and they got further than they've been before. Speaking of Elon Musk, it makes me think of Tesla. which makes me think of this new feature. Sawyer Merritt's talking about this on X. Apparently, your Tesla will soon be able to identify if you left a child in your car. So if you leave a child unattended in your car...

11?

278.384 - 304.598 Scott Adams

10? How does it know? I don't know. It seems like a step forward, so I'm not going to mock it. Probably will save lives. The other thing it might do is drive it home. It could just drive it home and unlock the door or roll down the windows. Don't you think it could roll down the window a little bit? I don't know. There's a lot of ways that could have gone.

0

306.578 - 335.096 Scott Adams

Well, here's the nerdiest sounding thing that might be a really big deal. Let's see if I can make this make sense. According to interesting engineering, there's a new stretchable metal. Pretty exciting, huh? Yeah, when you decided to watch this podcast, you said to yourself, I wonder if there's any new stretchable metals. Well, it turns out there is.

0

337.229 - 358.85 Scott Adams

And there's a special metal that delivers, believe it or not, 90% of the Carnot efficiency for heating and cooling. Well, that's pretty amazing. Yeah, no, 90% of the Carnot efficiency. That's a thing, I guess. And it's 20 times better than traditional alloys.

359.838 - 383.915 Scott Adams

All right, so the bottom line is that there's a new technology that seems practical that would just gigantically change your ability to do heating and cooling and make a heat pump that works with regular electricity but is way, way, way, way more efficient

384.912 - 415.496 Scott Adams

Now imagine what would happen to our energy needs if we could cool things and heat things way, way, way, way, way better than we ever have before. Well, that's coming up. So you remember how L.A. Mayor Karen Bass was bragging that things were going well in the Palisades and the rebuilding and the issuing of permits? Well, she caught a little bit of heat for that, according to the New York Post.

432.245 - 432.225 Scott Adams

52. 52.

435.191 - 473.871 Scott Adams

Well, that's not so good if you consider there are 6,800 properties. And so that would be less than 1%. So Karen Bass is up there standing in front of one of the very few homes that is being built and getting her picture taken. And only 1% have been approved. That's not good. But at least we're going to get the Golden Dome that will protect us from incoming missiles. And according to Trump,

Chapter 4: What are the latest updates on LA's rebuilding permits?

1197.475 - 1226.705 Scott Adams

Do you think that if they had an economic vision for working-class Americans, but they were on the 20 side of every 80-20 policy, do you think that they would have ridden into victory because they got the one thing right, an economic vision for working-class Americans? If they had an economic vision for working-class Americans, do you know what that would have looked like? Republican policy.

0

1229.468 - 1252.602 Scott Adams

This is a terrible analysis. They're acting like the only problem they had was they weren't copying Republicans enough on economic policy for middle-class Americans. Wow. And Roe Kahn is one of the smart ones, and he's like 100 miles away from even understanding what the problem was.

0

1254.261 - 1287.877 Scott Adams

Anyway, as you know, Democrats have been trying to win back men by coming up with big words and studying their syntax. We talked about that already. Some consultant came up with a $20 million proposition, and I guess I got funded, to go look into how they message men. Like, that's the problem. It's not the messaging. It's not your choice of words.

0

1288.277 - 1315.018 Scott Adams

I promise you, if you think that the problem with losing men from the Democrat Party is because you used the wrong words, you're as far as Ro Khanna is away from understanding anything about anything that happened in the last 10 years. Now, how many of you can back me up on the following statement? This is going to be a big claim.

0

1315.378 - 1345.098 Scott Adams

I'm going to make a large claim and I want to see if I have backing for it or if I'm just totally off base. In 2016, I was the first person in America who said, uh-oh, it's obvious that the Democrats are becoming the party of women and men are going to defect. I was the first person in the country who pointed that out, and I did it a lot. I mean, I mentioned that a lot.

1345.938 - 1374.811 Scott Adams

Can you confirm or deny, those of you who were with me 10 years ago, I did say that, right? And I gave examples, and I blamed Hillary Clinton, and I said the messaging is all female. Yeah, okay, and the comments, I'm getting a string of yeses. So you do remember that. So the next time I tell you that something's going to be true, maybe you'll listen to me.

1377.364 - 1404.055 Scott Adams

I have to admit, that was a stunningly good prediction, because absolutely nobody else was saying that in 2016. And I was saying it often. It's like, hey, you know, you're turning into the party of women, and men are going to get the hell out of there. And sure enough, that's exactly what happened. And I think Hillary is the one who killed the party, actually.

1406.993 - 1434.615 Scott Adams

News Nation had a, looked like an exclusive story that right at the end of the Biden administration, they put on a farm loan forgiveness program that was for everybody except white farmers. So it was irrelevant what your economic situation was because, of course, there were a lot of white farmers who weren't doing great.

1435.936 - 1455.546 Scott Adams

But it was only for the disadvantaged people or whatever they wanted to call them. And then I guess there was some lawsuit and some court said, you can't do that. That would be obviously unconstitutional. to give money only to certain ethnic groups and deny it to others.

Chapter 5: What is the controversy surrounding NPR and Trump?

2315.609 - 2347.557 Scott Adams

But don't tell me what you can't fucking do. Tell me what you can do and when you're going to do it. Or tell me that you can't do it ever and that we're just going to go over the cliff. Whichever is true, I want to know. But don't just tell me what you can't fucking do. And here's what you can't fucking do. So Stephen Miller says on Axe, the doge cuts are to discretionary spending, e.g.

0

2347.658 - 2376.216 Scott Adams

the federal bureaucracy. Okay, discretionary. What does the word discretionary mean to you? Discretionary means you have a choice, right? And then the doge cuts are to the stuff that you would have a choice about. Perfect. That's exactly what I thought they were. Oh, but it turns out that the word discretionary doesn't mean what you think it does. He goes on.

0

2376.777 - 2408.127 Scott Adams

Under Senate budget rules, you cannot cut discretionary spending. You can only cut mandatory spending. because it's a reconciliation bill okay so it's not a budget it's a reconciliation bill and in a reconciliation bill the thing you can't cut is a discretionary which is exactly the stuff that the word says you should be able to cut because that's what discretionary means but you can cut mandatory

0

2408.8 - 2439.128 Scott Adams

even though mandatory means the opposite of how it's fucking being used, because mandatory should be the stuff you can cut. But it turns out you can cut the mandatory, but not the discretionary, because it's a reconciliation bill. You got that? Everybody understand that? Makes perfect sense? I guess that's the Senate rule. And again, remember, Stephen Miller is probably 100% accurate, right?

0

2440.248 - 2475.389 Scott Adams

I doubt he's wrong. It's just that the rules themselves are just completely a mess. Then he goes on, he says, so doge cuts would have to be done through what is known as a rescissions package or an appropriations bill. Okay, so I guess neither of those are what, a budget? How many of you know what a rescissions package or an appropriations bill is? None of you, right? None of you.

2476.77 - 2500.144 Scott Adams

Then he goes on, he says, the big beautiful bill, the one we're working on there, is not an annual budget bill. Okay. And does not fund the departments of government. Okay. Okay. It does not finance our agencies or federal programs. Okay.

2501.325 - 2528.736 Scott Adams

Instead, it includes the single largest welfare reform in American history, so these are the good things it does, along with the largest tax cut and reform in American history, the most aggressive energy exploration in American history, and the strongest border bill in American history. all while reducing the deficit. So if that's the case,

2531.069 - 2558.544 Scott Adams

we'd be getting a bunch of things that Republicans would want while reducing the deficit. And I said to myself, huh, well, all right, well, it's all complicated and it looks like it's a bunch of bullshit to me, but at least if it reduces the deficit, that's pretty good. So somebody in the comments went to Grok to ask if that was true.

2559.705 - 2576.737 Scott Adams

And Grok says the big beautiful bill likely increases the federal deficit. Oh, you mean the one thing I fucking cared about? Despite claims otherwise. Now remember, this is Grok versus Stephen Miller.

Chapter 6: How are Democrats addressing their internal issues?

3202.94 - 3231.099 Scott Adams

Trump had been pushing them to get their NATO spending up so that the U.S. didn't have such a burden over there. So shouldn't that result in us being able to cut our military spending? No, apparently not. Apparently, if Europe spends more so that the US doesn't have to support them, we still just spend more. We just spend it on different stuff.

0

3231.94 - 3264.504 Scott Adams

So apparently, we don't have any process for spending less on military. We can only spend more. We found a way to... gives somebody else to spend a lot more on our military. Oh, well, then that gives us the right to spend more on our own military. It's like doge cuts. It's like there's never a reason to go backwards, apparently. Well, allegedly, according to the Wall Street Journal,

0

3265.305 - 3291.471 Scott Adams

People familiar with Trump's thinking. I'm not sure that's really a good source, but people familiar with Trump's thinking. As if you could be familiar with Trump's thinking. I don't even know if that's a thing. Could you? Even if you knew exactly what he said, would you still be familiar with his thinking? Trump is the most unpredictable person in some ways.

0

3291.831 - 3320.606 Scott Adams

I mean, he likes to be strategically unpredictable. So I'm not sure you could ever be familiar with his thinking, except for the things which he's been consistent on forever. And then we already know. But anyway, so he's thinking he's weighing heavy sanctions against Moscow and Because, you know, Putin's escalating the war and he seems to have no interest in stopping.

0

3321.607 - 3356.427 Scott Adams

And I wonder what kind of sanctions are left. As far as I know, the only sanctions are left because, according to this report, they eliminated banking as one of the options. So they're not going to squeeze his banking. But I think it would be sanctions on countries that bought energy from Russia. So the sanctions would be not directly on Russia, but on their customers. Does that work?

3357.227 - 3384.279 Scott Adams

Or do all those other countries have enough ways to pretend they're getting the oil from somewhere else that it just wouldn't work at all? I don't know. And then lastly, according to Duke University, there's a new experimental drug that could end pain, but it wouldn't be an opioid and it wouldn't get you high. So it already works on mice.

3385.179 - 3414.196 Scott Adams

And the mice allegedly are really pissed off that they participated in a painkiller experiment in which they had removed the fun part where the mice get high. And the mice are like, dude, really? You're going to make us take this experimental drug and we don't even get a buzz off it? And you're like, come on, mice. you signed up for this. And the mice would be like, we didn't sign up for this.

3415.177 - 3437.03 Scott Adams

You kidnapped us. And then Michael Steele would say, anyway, I'm not going to take that any further. But there would be some kind of an analogy there, I'm sure. All right, that's all I got for you today, ladies and gentlemen.

3438.98 - 3460.567 Scott Adams

um thanks for joining and i'll be here same time tomorrow um and i'm gonna say some private words to the people on locals my subscribers my beloved subscribers and the rest of you i'm hoping you'll come back tomorrow same time same place locals i'll be private with you in 30 seconds
