[TS]
00:00:02
◼
►
about the secret project
[TS]
00:00:04
◼
►
have you given a secret name because of
[TS]
00:00:07
◼
►
secret projects not a secret project
[TS]
00:00:09
◼
►
until it's got some pretentious name on
[TS]
00:00:11
◼
►
one of your spreadsheets
[TS]
00:00:12
◼
►
ah no actually can we quickly give it a
[TS]
00:00:16
◼
►
name was a good code name for a project
[TS]
00:00:18
◼
►
revolution is what i would call this one
[TS]
00:00:20
◼
►
yes I was thinking revolver but
[TS]
00:00:23
◼
►
revolution is good for many reasons
[TS]
00:00:25
◼
►
that's the perfect name but now I did
[TS]
00:00:26
◼
►
that come up with a secret code name for
[TS]
00:00:28
◼
►
this one because this as with many
[TS]
00:00:30
◼
►
things is one of your ideas that was
[TS]
00:00:32
◼
►
births and so this was not on my project
[TS]
00:00:34
◼
►
yeah I mean without wanting to say I'm
[TS]
00:00:36
◼
►
too boastful this one has got my name
[TS]
00:00:38
◼
►
written all over it hasn't it it does
[TS]
00:00:41
◼
►

00:01:07
◼
►
it's podcasting getting back to its
[TS]
00:01:10
◼
►
roots isn't it yes I believe my
[TS]
00:01:13
◼

knowledge of history serves me correctly
[TS]
00:01:15
◼
►
hear that the original podcast were

distributed via vinyl records on and
[TS]
00:01:21
◼

pony express our wax cylinder yeah i
[TS]
00:01:27
◼
►
think that the other how podcasters of
[TS]
00:01:29
◼
►
you are used to do this to be fair my
[TS]
00:01:31
◼
►
wife played a pretty big role in the
[TS]
00:01:33
◼
►
idea to she quite likes a vinyl music
[TS]
00:01:35
◼
►
move so the idea came about that we
[TS]
00:01:38
◼
►
should have an episode of Hello internet
[TS]
00:01:40
◼
►
on vinyl and I was quite nervous about
[TS]
00:01:42
◼
►
suggesting it to you because you don't
[TS]
00:01:44
◼
►
seem like a vinyl kind of guy and I
[TS]
00:01:46
◼
►
thought it was going to be a tough sell
[TS]
00:01:48
◼
►
little and i have to say of all the
[TS]
00:01:50
◼
►
crazy things that I've persuaded you to
[TS]
00:01:52
◼
►
do this probably required the least
[TS]
00:01:54
◼
►
effort you onboard very quickly i was on
[TS]
00:01:57
◼
►
board very quickly because it was a good
[TS]
00:01:59
◼
►
idea i get a lot of wacky Brady ideas
[TS]
00:02:02
◼
►
but i thought this was funny i like the
[TS]
00:02:04
◼
►
pitch of it immediately so when it's a
[TS]
00:02:06
◼
►
good idea Brady I'm happy to go along
[TS]
00:02:08
◼
►
ok so just so people know where things
[TS]
00:02:10
◼
►
are at before we talk about vinyl in
[TS]
00:02:12
◼
►
general
[TS]
00:02:13
◼
►
we have recorded the episode em it's
[TS]
00:02:16
◼
►
fair to say it's not your typical hello
[TS]
00:02:18
◼
►
Internet episodes in a gray like in some
[TS]
00:02:20
◼
►
ways it is but otherwise it's a bit
[TS]
00:02:21
◼
►
different
[TS]
00:02:22
◼
►
have you even listen to it yet what did
[TS]
00:02:23
◼
►
you not listen to the broadcast i sent
[TS]
00:02:26
◼
►
I haven't gotten a chance to look into
[TS]
00:02:28
◼
►
the rough cut and had just sent me just
[TS]
00:02:30
◼
►
yet but i was there during the recording
[TS]
00:02:32
◼
►
some i'm aware of what you were you were
[TS]
00:02:34
◼
►
at so we've recorded the episode i've
[TS]
00:02:37
◼
►
edited it all together it's a very
[TS]
00:02:38
◼
►
special episode and it's now off with
[TS]
00:02:41
◼
►
the manufacturers and it's going to be
[TS]
00:02:43
◼
►
pressed onto vinyl there's an album
[TS]
00:02:45
◼
►
cover which incidentally is amazing
[TS]
00:02:49
◼
►
mhm it's going to be available in
[TS]
00:02:52
◼
►
November it takes awhile to get vinyl
[TS]
00:02:56
◼
►
made on learning its bit of a palava to
[TS]
00:02:57
◼
►
be honest
[TS]
00:02:58
◼
►
well this has been an incredibly long
[TS]
00:02:59
◼
►
process because like how long was it ago
[TS]
00:03:02
◼
►
that you actually pitch this to me is
[TS]
00:03:03
◼
►
the thing that you wanted to do it feels
[TS]
00:03:05
◼
►
like months and months and months ago I
[TS]
00:03:07
◼
►
was ages ago
[TS]
00:03:08
◼
►
it just took you so long to actually
[TS]
00:03:10
◼
►
decide to record it and decide what the
[TS]
00:03:11
◼
►
episode would be about but we finally
[TS]
00:03:14
◼
►
did and we finally did that about a
[TS]
00:03:16
◼
►
month ago
[TS]
00:03:17
◼
►
mhm why is it together pretty quickly
[TS]
00:03:19
◼
►
and then got the artwork made started
[TS]
00:03:22
◼
►
talking to manufacturers and they have
[TS]
00:03:24
◼
►
to be sent all this stuff it's a process
[TS]
00:03:26
◼
►
that we did the episode I thought that
[TS]
00:03:28
◼
►
was a pretty cool episode I listen back
[TS]
00:03:30
◼
►
to and thought yet
[TS]
00:03:31
◼
►
that's pretty good but when we got the
[TS]
00:03:33
◼
►
artwork done by a professional and very
[TS]
00:03:36
◼
►
good artist who you introduced me to
[TS]
00:03:38
◼
►
when I saw the designs that was when I
[TS]
00:03:40
◼
►
was like this is awesome
[TS]
00:03:42
◼
►
that's when I got excited because he's
[TS]
00:03:44
◼
►
done an amazing job yet it does look
[TS]
00:03:46
◼
►
absolutely gorgeous will put a link in
[TS]
00:03:47
◼
►
the show notes to the vinyl artwork do
[TS]
00:03:51
◼
►
you want to tell people what we actually
[TS]
00:03:53
◼
►
discussed sit because as people who
[TS]
00:03:56
◼
►
listen to that episode might realize i
[TS]
00:03:58
◼
►
was unfamiliar with what you proposed
[TS]
00:04:00
◼
►
that we do in this final episode of
[TS]
00:04:02
◼
►
Hello internet well I'm a little
[TS]
00:04:04
◼
►
reluctant to give away too much at this
[TS]
00:04:05
◼
►
stage I'd like to build that but i will
[TS]
00:04:07
◼
►
say it is about music okay and our taste
[TS]
00:04:12
◼
►
in music
[TS]
00:04:13
◼
►
we discuss music quite a la M it
[TS]
00:04:16
◼
►
actually gave me new insights into you
[TS]
00:04:18
◼
►
gray like the musical and actually some
[TS]
00:04:20
◼
►
of the music you told me about
[TS]
00:04:22
◼
►
I have since been listening to oh wow
[TS]
00:04:24
◼
►
that's interesting
[TS]
00:04:26
◼
►
yeah i can say the reverse is not true
[TS]
00:04:28
◼
►
there are a few questions that are going
[TS]
00:04:30
◼
►
to come into people's heads and the main
[TS]
00:04:32
◼
►
1i guess is why on earth are you doing
[TS]
00:04:34
◼
►
such a stupid ridiculous thing I think
[TS]
00:04:37
◼
►
it seems self-evidence why you would do
[TS]
00:04:39
◼
►
this because it's fun it's intrinsically
[TS]
00:04:42
◼
►
entertaining i just like to create
[TS]
00:04:44
◼
►
things and this is true it's so rare
[TS]
00:04:47
◼
►
that we create physical things and this
[TS]
00:04:50
◼
►
struck me as a rare opportunity for us
[TS]
00:04:52
◼
►
to like to make something real in the
[TS]
00:04:54
◼
►
world that people could touch and put on
[TS]
00:04:57
◼
►
the shelf and and handle and I don't
[TS]
00:05:00
◼
►
know it excites me
[TS]
00:05:02
◼
►
I was always fascinated by vinyl when I
[TS]
00:05:03
◼
►
was young because you know my parents
[TS]
00:05:05
◼
►
had a record player and also you know
[TS]
00:05:07
◼
►
the idea of gold records when people win
[TS]
00:05:09
◼
►
a gold record and have it framed and put
[TS]
00:05:11
◼
►
up on the wall and I'm not the world's
[TS]
00:05:12
◼
►
biggest music head so far from but just
[TS]
00:05:15
◼
►
the idea of Records always appealed to
[TS]
00:05:17
◼
►
me and also i think it's a nice thing to
[TS]
00:05:20
◼
►
own up when I really like a band or I
[TS]
00:05:23
◼
►
really like an album
[TS]
00:05:24
◼
►
mmm even if I'm never going to listen to
[TS]
00:05:26
◼
►
vinyl or CD or cassette I just like to
[TS]
00:05:29
◼
►
own a copy of it and sure i might just
[TS]
00:05:32
◼
►
continue listening to it now on my
[TS]
00:05:34
◼
►
computer on my phone but I just like
[TS]
00:05:36
◼
►
having on the Shelf something about that
[TS]
00:05:39
◼
►
appeals to me how many vinyl records do
[TS]
00:05:41
◼
►
you think you are
[TS]
00:05:42
◼
►
of what hardly any we actually only got
[TS]
00:05:44
◼
►
a new record player about two or three
[TS]
00:05:46
◼
►
weeks ago so we have been buying a few
[TS]
00:05:48
◼
►
records just lightly but before i did
[TS]
00:05:49
◼
►
get the record player i did get the
[TS]
00:05:51
◼
►
public service broadcasting album they
[TS]
00:05:52
◼
►
sent me a copy of it so i have had that
[TS]
00:05:54
◼
►
on the Shelf before I had my record
[TS]
00:05:56
◼
►
player and I like them they're like
[TS]
00:05:58
◼
►
little trophies that little ornaments
[TS]
00:06:00
◼
►
and I don't know if it's true for
[TS]
00:06:02
◼
►
podcast because i don't know how many
[TS]
00:06:04
◼
►
podcasts have released vital episodes
[TS]
00:06:06
◼
►
but I can imagine if you quite liked a
[TS]
00:06:09
◼
►
podcast sure you know you can get a
[TS]
00:06:11
◼
►
t-shirt or you can get a poster but i
[TS]
00:06:13
◼
►
just thought if you're going to own
[TS]
00:06:14
◼
►
something of a podcast you like what
[TS]
00:06:17
◼
►
better thing to own then like physical
[TS]
00:06:19
◼
►
incarnation of an episode of it and
[TS]
00:06:22
◼
►
that's what we're making you can
[TS]
00:06:24
◼
►
actually touch an episode you can hold
[TS]
00:06:25
◼
►
it it can be yours you described it as a
[TS]
00:06:28
◼
►
thing of beauty really
[TS]
00:06:30
◼
►
the physical manifestation of our lovely
[TS]
00:06:33
◼
►
voices etched onto the physical surface
[TS]
00:06:37
◼
►
of an object to be scratched over by a
[TS]
00:06:40
◼
►
needle to reproduce the sound final the
[TS]
00:06:43
◼
►
big question is though who owns a record
[TS]
00:06:46
◼
►
player but who can listen to this
[TS]
00:06:48
◼
►
are we making something that no one can
[TS]
00:06:50
◼
►
actually utilize I think the answer that
[TS]
00:06:53
◼
►
is in many cases no one owns a record
[TS]
00:06:55
◼
►
player and we are making something that
[TS]
00:06:57
◼
►
people won't be able to play unless they
[TS]
00:06:58
◼
►
go and visit uncle johns or grandma
[TS]
00:07:01
◼
►
Jones and use her record player but i
[TS]
00:07:04
◼
►
don't think that matters
[TS]
00:07:05
◼
►
I think if I like something just like
[TS]
00:07:08
◼
►
with race for space the album before i
[TS]
00:07:10
◼
►
had a record player i wanted to own a
[TS]
00:07:11
◼
►
vinyl copy of it because i liked the
[TS]
00:07:13
◼
►
album and I think I would feel the same
[TS]
00:07:16
◼
►
way about this i would like to have it
[TS]
00:07:18
◼
►
even if I couldn't listen to it that
[TS]
00:07:19
◼
►
sounds ridiculous and I thought maybe
[TS]
00:07:21
◼
►
that is ridiculous but funnily enough
[TS]
00:07:23
◼
►
and coincidentally I've just been
[TS]
00:07:26
◼
►
reading a few articles in the last few
[TS]
00:07:27
◼
►
days I was someone on the BBC website
[TS]
00:07:29
◼
►
saying that something like fifty percent
[TS]
00:07:32
◼
►
of vinyl albums that are purchased by
[TS]
00:07:34
◼
►
people and never listened to on never
[TS]
00:07:37
◼
►
played so I think that attitude that I
[TS]
00:07:40
◼
►
have that these things can actually just
[TS]
00:07:41
◼
►
be ornaments or little stylistic things
[TS]
00:07:44
◼
►
is fleshed out by statistics as well so
[TS]
00:07:47
◼
►
you think people are buying them as
[TS]
00:07:48
◼
►
posters and like putting them up on
[TS]
00:07:50
◼
►
their wall or his ownership objects
[TS]
00:07:51
◼
►
never intending to actually listen to
[TS]
00:07:53
◼
►
them i think that's true
[TS]
00:07:55
◼
►
there was an article from April 2016 on
[TS]
00:07:58
◼
►
the BBC website and we'll try and link
[TS]
00:07:59
◼
►
to it and it's all about how music
[TS]
00:08:02
◼
►
streaming has actually caused an upsurge
[TS]
00:08:05
◼
►
in sales of vinyl and as all these
[TS]
00:08:07
◼
►
numbers and stats and that but they're
[TS]
00:08:08
◼
►
also just interviewing a few people
[TS]
00:08:10
◼
►
about and they were talking to the
[TS]
00:08:11
◼
►
student in manchester and he said I have
[TS]
00:08:14
◼
►
vinyls in my room but it's more for de
[TS]
00:08:16
◼
►
coeur I don't actually play them it just
[TS]
00:08:18
◼
►
gives me an old-school vibe that's what
[TS]
00:08:20
◼
►
vinyl is all about
[TS]
00:08:21
◼
►
i get there i have one on my shelf the
[TS]
00:08:23
◼
►
moment you know i bought the Star Wars
[TS]
00:08:26
◼
►
trilogy on laserdiscs like from a
[TS]
00:08:29
◼
►
secondhand shop I've never even owned a
[TS]
00:08:31
◼
►
laserdisc player but I just liked like
[TS]
00:08:33
◼
►
this retro coolness of owning the Star
[TS]
00:08:36
◼
►
Wars trilogy on laserdisc and they just
[TS]
00:08:37
◼
►
interesting objects maybe this is the
[TS]
00:08:40
◼
►
same thing and we've deliberately made
[TS]
00:08:41
◼
►
this hello Internet album look
[TS]
00:08:43
◼
►
indirect right when you say you know why
[TS]
00:08:45
◼
►
i made it does the blacks from another
[TS]
00:08:47
◼
►
time did I show you my original design
[TS]
00:08:49
◼
►
of the album cover
[TS]
00:08:50
◼
►
I've just sent you my original sketch of
[TS]
00:08:52
◼
►
what I wanted like my vision for what
[TS]
00:08:54
◼
►
the output look like just to share the
[TS]
00:08:56
◼
►
different stream what I came up with and
[TS]
00:08:58
◼
►
whatnot just gonna be okay i never saw
[TS]
00:08:59
◼
►
this is this but look at you can see my
[TS]
00:09:03
◼
►

[TS]
00:09:11
◼
►
like Brady is a three-year-old child
[TS]
00:09:14
◼
►
holding a crayon into hands drawing what
[TS]
00:09:17
◼
►
he imagines an album cover to be that is
[TS]
00:09:19
◼
►
what I'm looking at right now a very
[TS]
00:09:22
◼
►
terribly drawn picture of like a beach
[TS]
00:09:24
◼
►
scene and a robot and brady and like a
[TS]
00:09:28
◼
►
gramophone on the beach I would praise a
[TS]
00:09:31
◼
►
small child for this drawing it looks
[TS]
00:09:33
◼
►
terrible if you have done it but i can
[TS]
00:09:35
◼
►
see the inspiration that I'm sure that
[TS]
00:09:37
◼
►
his came to the artists to create the
[TS]
00:09:40
◼
►
final version i think the final version
[TS]
00:09:42
◼
►
pretty much looks just like it except
[TS]
00:09:44
◼
►
like well done they filled in the
[TS]
00:09:46
◼
►
details
[TS]
00:09:47
◼
►
a little yeah I'm sure that's that's all
[TS]
00:09:49
◼

that was done I like that it's also
[TS]
00:09:51
◼

[TS]
00:09:54
◼

file name isn't saving it to my desktop
[TS]
00:09:57
◼

fantastic
[TS]
00:09:59
◼

[TS]
00:10:01
◼
►
think though and i know you Brady
[TS]
00:10:03
◼
►
because you're kind of a hoarder
[TS]
00:10:06
◼
►
you know you keep talking about the
[TS]
00:10:07
◼
►
actual object miss of it and we have
[TS]
00:10:09
◼
►
people love to hold things in to run
[TS]
00:10:12
◼
►
their fingers over them and to keep
[TS]
00:10:13
◼
►
hundreds of photos of astronauts and a
[TS]
00:10:16
◼
►
big trunk next to the desk like this is
[TS]
00:10:18
◼
►
the kind of thing that you like to do
[TS]
00:10:19
◼
►
yeah i think people will actually listen
[TS]
00:10:21
◼
►
to it and I think people actually do own
[TS]
00:10:25
◼
►
record players it seems like
[TS]
00:10:27
◼
►
old-fashioned record players are kind of
[TS]
00:10:29
◼
►
a trendy thing all of these hipsters in
[TS]
00:10:32
◼
►
the world who like old things go out and
[TS]
00:10:35
◼
►
they buy record players so I think there
[TS]
00:10:38
◼
►
are actually enough record players in
[TS]
00:10:40
◼
►
the world that a significant number of
[TS]
00:10:41
◼
►
people who buy this will actually be
[TS]
00:10:43
◼
►
able to hear the episode that is
[TS]
00:10:45
◼
►
contained within it i don't think it's
[TS]
00:10:46
◼
►
just going to end up on people's walls
[TS]
00:10:48
◼
►
as a piece of artwork at least i hope
[TS]
00:10:51
◼
►
not because we know we record the
[TS]
00:10:52
◼
►
episode for people to listen to and I
[TS]
00:10:54
◼
►
think it will be listened to
[TS]
00:10:55
◼
►
maybe there will be
[TS]
00:10:56
◼
►
hello Internet listening parties where
[TS]
00:10:58
◼
►
the one hipster in the group or the one
[TS]
00:11:00
◼
►
delusional person who thinks that vinyl
[TS]
00:11:02
◼
►
sounds better than all digital
[TS]
00:11:04
◼
►
recordings and thus owns a record player
[TS]
00:11:05
◼
►
will be able to play the episode for a
[TS]
00:11:08
◼
►
group of people to listen to i think
[TS]
00:11:10
◼
►
that's gonna happen and they're gonna
[TS]
00:11:11
◼
►
love it I love the idea of a party with
[TS]
00:11:13
◼
►
a big bowl of crisps and a couple of
[TS]
00:11:15
◼
►
years and just hanging there
[TS]
00:11:17
◼
►
I hope that is until I put a lot of
[TS]
00:11:18
◼
►
effort into the episode it was put
[TS]
00:11:20
◼
►
together very lovingly even though you
[TS]
00:11:22
◼
►
haven't listened to it yet it has not
[TS]
00:11:23
◼
►
gotten to the top of my to-do list had
[TS]
00:11:25
◼
►
been very busy being in America but i
[TS]
00:11:27
◼
►
will listen to it very soon ready okay
[TS]
00:11:30
◼
►
so it's not going to physically exist
[TS]
00:11:32
◼
►
into November em but we've been a bit of
[TS]
00:11:34
◼
►
a conundrum
[TS]
00:11:35
◼
►
it's been very difficult to decide how
[TS]
00:11:37
◼
►
many to have made so we've got a very
[TS]
00:11:40
◼
►
limited run being made so we are going
[TS]
00:11:42
◼
►
to sell them now so we know who's going
[TS]
00:11:45
◼
►
to get them so if you want one
[TS]
00:11:48
◼
►
there's only about I think 250 being
[TS]
00:11:51
◼
►
made at the moment blue which maybe is
[TS]
00:11:53
◼
►
way too many or maybe is not enough
[TS]
00:11:56
◼
►
so if you want one order it now I'm
[TS]
00:11:59
◼
►
afraid you won't actually get to hold it
[TS]
00:12:01
◼
►
until later in the year but once they're
[TS]
00:12:04
◼
►
gone they're probably gone and it's
[TS]
00:12:07
◼
►
taken so long to get these ones my
[TS]
00:12:08
◼
►
goodness knows if i'll be able to get
[TS]
00:12:10
◼
►
another batch done so if you want one
[TS]
00:12:12
◼
►
get in if you don't want one well that's
[TS]
00:12:15
◼
►

00:12:19
◼
►
internet business as usual

00:12:23
◼
►

[TS]
00:12:27
◼
►
old-fashioned internet episodes are you
[TS]
00:12:29
◼
►
trying to allay fears that people might
[TS]
00:12:31
◼
►
have that the show is going to convert
[TS]
00:12:32
◼
►
to a completely vinyl she'll fix is
[TS]
00:12:34
◼
►
really successful like that's what it
[TS]
00:12:36
◼
►

[TS]
00:12:38
◼
►
let people know like don't worry if this
[TS]

◼
►

[TS]
00:13:56
◼
►
project from start to finish you were
[TS]
00:13:58
◼
►

[TS]
00:14:00
◼
►
too late to possibly change the artwork
[TS]
00:14:01
◼
►
for this one
[TS]
00:14:02
◼
►

much much more so than I ever was or
[TS]
00:14:22
◼
►
ever have been
[TS]
00:14:23

there were tons of vinyl records it
[TS]
00:14:27
◼
►
seemed like around the house and he had
[TS]
00:14:29
◼
►
a vinyl record player and I feel like I
[TS]
00:14:32
◼
►
remember like the transition from vinyl
[TS]
00:14:36
◼
►
to digital is this big thing that we did
[TS]
00:14:39
◼
►
at one point going through all of my
[TS]
00:14:40
◼
►
dad's vinyl records and having a machine
[TS]
00:14:42
◼
►
that actually converted them into
[TS]
00:14:43
◼
►
digital mp3's at one point but yeah I
[TS]
00:14:45
◼
►
definitely remember as a kid listening
[TS]

◼
►
to vinyl records that was playing on my

shut down great industries as much as I

◼

across the country at one point I was in

00:21:35
◼
►
Wyoming for a while and i have to say we
[TS]
00:21:38
◼
►
talked about the Wyoming flag a while
[TS]
00:21:41
◼
►
ago on our flag episode we went through
[TS]
00:21:43
◼
►
all the state flags and do you remember
[TS]
00:21:46
◼
►
Brady what the Wyoming flag looks like
[TS]
00:21:48
◼
►
off the top of your head and that haha i
[TS]
00:21:51
◼
►
look at it now if you want
[TS]
00:21:52
◼
►
yeah you can look at it now
[TS]
00:21:53
◼
►
oh yeah okay it's a bad flag done badly
[TS]
00:21:58
◼
►
is that what you think of the flag of
[TS]
00:21:59
◼
►
Wyoming yeah it's bad flag done badly
[TS]
00:22:01
◼
►
air because they like they said okay
[TS]
00:22:02
◼
►
here's all the things we could do to
[TS]
00:22:04
◼
►
make a bad flag like have a weird
[TS]
00:22:07
◼
►
outline of an animal and put a logo
[TS]
00:22:10
◼
►
honor but then they said what's the
[TS]
00:22:11
◼
►
worst way we could put the logo on it
[TS]
00:22:14
◼
►
oh I know let's like make it too big and
[TS]
00:22:16
◼
►
ill-fitting on the weird animal and
[TS]
00:22:18
◼
►
that's bad to the pair of bad
[TS]
00:22:23
◼
►
let's see now my view of the flag of
[TS]
00:22:26
◼
►
Wyoming is that it is almost great it's
[TS]
00:22:30
◼
►
just the logo stamped across the Buffalo
[TS]
00:22:32
◼
►
is the most terrible thing ever that
[TS]
00:22:34
◼
►
yeah we just to remove that logo this
[TS]
00:22:36
◼
►
flag would be so much better so much
[TS]
00:22:38
◼
►
cooler yes this is what you have to do
[TS]
00:22:40
◼
►
to fix the wiring flag remove the logo
[TS]
00:22:44
◼
►
from on the Buffalo em stylized the
[TS]
00:22:47
◼
►
outline of the Buffalo a little bit so
[TS]
00:22:49
◼
►
it doesn't look like clip made by brady
[TS]
00:22:51
◼
►
and just get the proportion of that box
[TS]
00:22:54
◼
►
and border a little bit different i'm ok
[TS]
00:22:56
◼
►
with the box and border i agree that is
[TS]
00:22:57
◼
►
slightly stylized Buffalo would be an
[TS]
00:22:59
◼
►
improvement but eighty percent of the
[TS]
00:23:01
◼
►
games come from simply removing the
[TS]
00:23:03
◼
►
state seal yeah which is horrific we
[TS]
00:23:06
◼
►
placed at the center of that Buffalo
[TS]
00:23:08
◼
►
don't use the word center because it's
[TS]
00:23:11
◼
►
off center in the flag and it's off
[TS]
00:23:13
◼
►
center on the Buffalo into his office
[TS]
00:23:15
◼
►
enter and badly size as it could be i
[TS]
00:23:18
◼
►
don't know i think they must have been
[TS]
00:23:19
◼
►
having that must be bored in some
[TS]
00:23:20
◼
►
consultants from Liberia help with this
[TS]
00:23:22
◼
►
one looking at possibly possibly i think
[TS]
00:23:25
◼
►
in that old episode i would have said
[TS]
00:23:27
◼
►
what I think about this flag is like boy
[TS]
00:23:28
◼
►
just take away that logo and this is a
[TS]
00:23:30
◼
►
pretty good flag even if you do
[TS]
00:23:32
◼
►
absolutely nothing else and when I was
[TS]
00:23:34
◼
►
in Wyoming the summer I was in a place
[TS]
00:23:36
◼
►
called jackson hole for a while and i
[TS]
00:23:39
◼
►
could not help but notice that almost
[TS]
00:23:42
◼
►
everywhere I saw the flag of Wyoming
[TS]
00:23:45
◼
►
being used as like a logo or being used
[TS]
00:23:48
◼
►
in a poster or on the outside of a store
[TS]
00:23:51
◼
►
or on somebody's hat it's like the
[TS]
00:23:54
◼
►
citizens of Wyoming took it into their
[TS]
00:23:55
◼
►
own hands that that logo doesn't exist
[TS]
00:23:58
◼
►
right they just remove that and is like
[TS]
00:24:00
◼
►
now we're going with our Buffalo flag
[TS]
00:24:02
◼
►
that's awesome
[TS]
00:24:03
◼
►
without the logo so it felt like there
[TS]
00:24:05
◼
►
was a bit of
[TS]
00:24:06
◼
►
citizens spontaneous democracy taking
[TS]
00:24:08
◼
►
place about how to make their flag look
[TS]
00:24:11
◼
►
better of which i vastly improve
[TS]
00:24:12
◼
►
thumbs-up citizens of Wyoming you
[TS]
00:24:14
◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
00:24:19
◼
►

[TS]
00:24:20
◼
►
different flag that didn't win the
[TS]
00:24:22
◼
►
referendum that's the Knights different
[TS]
00:24:24
◼
►

[TS]
00:24:26
◼
►

[TS]
00:24:28
◼
►
okay to tweak the flag but you can't
[TS]
00:24:30
◼
►
just completely change it I see lots of
[TS]
00:24:32
◼
►
people do very interesting things with
[TS]
00:24:34
◼
►
the nail and gear that icon in and of
[TS]
00:24:38
◼
►
I see lots of interesting things done
[TS]
00:24:39
◼
►
with the flag but if you're just going
[TS]
00:24:41
◼
►
to try to have one of the loser flags
[TS]
00:24:43
◼
►
act as the official flag of hello
[TS]
00:24:46
◼
►
internet it's not cool especially with

00:24:48
◼
►
your feet hip fade so i could just the

[TS]
00:24:52
◼
►
diehard put white cross up briefly on
[TS]
00:24:56
◼
►
the health network if age is the
[TS]
00:24:58
◼
►
official flag and I thought our that
[TS]
00:25:02
◼
►
someone really committed to a losing
[TS]
00:25:03
◼
►
cause there i think you get onto a
[TS]
00:25:06
◼
►
genius idea they're great I in the
[TS]
00:25:08
◼
►
battle for hearts and minds instead of
[TS]
00:25:10
◼
►
flag flag being called the one true flag
[TS]
00:25:13
◼
►
or whatever people like to cola we
[TS]
00:25:15
◼
►
should just start referring to her as
[TS]
00:25:16
◼
►
the loser flag haha because that these
[TS]
00:25:20
◼
►
people are basically that you know their
[TS]
00:25:21
◼
►
totem this standard that are trying to
[TS]
00:25:23
◼
►

[TS]
00:25:25
◼
►
practice right now and gather together
[TS]
00:25:27
◼
►
all of us under this loser flag hanging
[TS]
00:25:30
◼
►
Anna it does rather deflate the car

[TS]
00:25:35
◼
►

[TS]
00:25:39
◼
►

[TS]
00:25:45
◼
►
and I think that might be a winning
[TS]
00:25:46
◼
►
point to hit on there so in my travels
[TS]
00:25:50
◼
►
across America as we have discussed
[TS]
00:25:52
◼
►
previously on the show
[TS]
00:25:54
◼
►
there is always the problem of tipping
[TS]
00:25:56
◼
►
em and while this is my second trip to
[TS]
00:26:00
◼
►
America this summer this time because i
[TS]
00:26:02
◼
►
wasn't just staying in hotels i was
[TS]
00:26:04
◼
►
actually going across the land
[TS]
00:26:06
◼
►
I kept running into this thing which I
[TS]
00:26:09
◼
►
just haven't come across in America
[TS]
00:26:11
◼
►
before they're called square terminals
[TS]
00:26:14
◼
►
for taking payments in America do you
[TS]
00:26:16
◼
►
know what i'm talking about if I say
[TS]
00:26:18
◼
►
square terminal know
[TS]
00:26:19
◼
►
ok America seems to have this horrific
[TS]
00:26:23
◼
►
Lee backwards payment system for
[TS]
00:26:26
◼
►
accepting credit card payments i don't
[TS]
00:26:28
◼
►
understand what's going on in America I
[TS]
00:26:30
◼
►
don't understand why they can't just run
[TS]
00:26:31
◼
►
credit cards like normal people but
[TS]
00:26:33
◼
►
there seems to be this old-fashioned way
[TS]
00:26:36
◼
►
of doing things
[TS]
00:26:37
◼
►
I constantly have to hand my ID to
[TS]
00:26:39
◼
►
people when i'm buying things in America
[TS]
00:26:41
◼
►
it's very annoying but square seems to
[TS]
00:26:43
◼
►
be this company that tries to solve this
[TS]
00:26:46
◼
►
problem by having a little either they
[TS]
00:26:49
◼
►
just have like an iPad that's mounted in
[TS]
00:26:51
◼
►
the store or it set up on the vendors
[TS]
00:26:54
◼
►
phone that you can actually run the
[TS]
00:26:55
◼
►
credit card through a little dongle that
[TS]
00:26:57
◼
►
attaches to the phone and they can take
[TS]
00:26:59
◼
►
credit card payments there and it seems
[TS]
00:27:00
◼
►
like all of a sudden every single store
[TS]
00:27:02
◼
►
everywhere in America is using one of
[TS]
00:27:04
◼
►
these things as a way to try to make
[TS]
00:27:06
◼
►
credit card payment accepting easier
[TS]
00:27:08
◼
►
it's just like boom all of a sudden
[TS]
00:27:11
◼
►
they're everywhere
[TS]
00:27:12
◼
►
ok fine i have no problem with this I
[TS]
00:27:14
◼
►
like things to be easier to but what I
[TS]
00:27:16
◼
►
don't like is that on this system when
[TS]
00:27:19
◼
►
you run your credit card they flip over
[TS]
00:27:21
◼
►
the little iPad so that you can you sign
[TS]
00:27:23
◼
►
your name but before you sign your name
[TS]
00:27:25
◼
►
and every single store it asks you how
[TS]
00:27:29
◼

much of a tip that you want to leave em

00:27:31
◼

every single time they flip over the
[TS]
00:27:34
◼
►
ipad person looks into your eyes and
[TS]
00:27:37
◼
►
there's a bunch of buttons will say like
[TS]
00:27:38
◼
►
two three five ten other or whatever it
[TS]
00:27:41
◼
►
is for tip amount and then there's one
[TS]
00:27:44
◼
►
little button which is like no tip
[TS]
00:27:46
◼
►
because you're a mean person and you
[TS]
00:27:49
◼
►
have to tap that one and then it lets
[TS]
00:27:50
◼

you sign the thing doesn't like a sound
[TS]
00:27:52
◼
►
effect when you we had like the god yeah
[TS]
00:27:55
◼
►
it totally should make a sound like that
[TS]
00:27:57
◼
►
even if it doesn't make that sound it's
[TS]
00:28:00
◼
►
psychologically feels like it yeah
[TS]
00:28:02
◼
►
sounds right and this is one of these
[TS]
00:28:04
◼
►
things like in America I also run across
[TS]
00:28:07
◼
►
the situation of every single receipt
[TS]
00:28:09
◼
►
has a space for a tip and i find that
[TS]
00:28:12
◼
►
much more ignora below but i was so
[TS]
00:28:14
◼
►
aware the summer of every single store
[TS]
00:28:17
◼
►
using these square terminals feels like
[TS]
00:28:20
◼
►
a little moment where you have to decide
[TS]
00:28:21
◼
►
if you're going to leave a tip or not
[TS]
00:28:23
◼
►
and I just I can't deal with it Brady i
[TS]
00:28:26
◼
►
find it exhausting i find it like
[TS]
00:28:29
◼
►
weirdly judgy on behalf of the store in
[TS]
00:28:32
◼
►
some ways
[TS]
00:28:33
◼
►
don't know how to get through this i
[TS]
00:28:34
◼
►
mean i'm on your side with this crowd
[TS]
00:28:35
◼
►
you know how I feel about tipping as
[TS]
00:28:37
◼
►
well although I have to say a couple of
[TS]
00:28:39
◼
►
times over the last few weeks I found
[TS]
00:28:41
◼
►
myself in eating establishments in the
[TS]
00:28:43
◼
►
UK where the service has been so poor
[TS]
00:28:46
◼
►
and i have been so riled up and mad at
[TS]
00:28:50
◼
►
the poor serving staff just ignoring me
[TS]
00:28:53
◼
►
ordering a terrible job and me knowing
[TS]
00:28:55
◼
►
they're going to get their salary at the
[TS]
00:28:57
◼
►
end of the week anyway who that I have
[TS]
00:28:58
◼
►
wished they had to work for their tips
[TS]
00:29:00
◼
►
like I wish they had that incentive
[TS]
00:29:03
◼
►
because if they had been nice i would
[TS]
00:29:04
◼
►
have tipped them but I was just thinking
[TS]
00:29:06
◼
►
you've done a terrible job here and i
[TS]
00:29:08
◼
►
have no retribution
[TS]
00:29:10
◼
►
there's nothing i can do all I can do is
[TS]
00:29:12
◼
►
pay my bill at the end and leave and
[TS]
00:29:14
◼
►
you're going to get your salary and your
[TS]
00:29:15
◼
►
boss isn't gonna know what a terrible
[TS]
00:29:17
◼
►
job you did and I did wish they were
[TS]
00:29:19
◼
►
incentivized you want to smite them
[TS]
00:29:22
◼
►
no I don't want to punish them I want
[TS]
00:29:24
◼
►
them to do a good job anything
[TS]
00:29:25
◼
►
centralizing them is what will make them
[TS]
00:29:27
◼
►
do a good job so be it
[TS]
00:29:29
◼
►
because they sure as heck were
[TS]
00:29:30
◼
►
incentivized by their salary because
[TS]
00:29:31
◼
►
they were doing a terrible job so I have
[TS]
00:29:34
◼
►
to say I a couple of times over the last
[TS]
00:29:36
◼
►
few weeks I've had a little flicker of
[TS]
00:29:37
◼
►
tipping does have its benefits but
[TS]
00:29:40
◼
►
overall when all things considered and
[TS]
00:29:42
◼
►
everything is measured a wide i agree
[TS]
00:29:44
◼
►
with you I i would prefer a system where
[TS]
00:29:46
◼
►
people were paid and we didn't have
[TS]
00:29:49
◼
►
these weird tipping scenarios that come
[TS]
00:29:51
◼
►
yeah it's really frustrating and I don't
[TS]
00:29:53
◼
►
like how it just becomes everywhere
[TS]
00:29:55
◼
►
because now i don't understand and i
[TS]
00:29:58
◼
►
have a couple of questions for you but I
[TS]
00:30:00
◼
►
hope you can clarify for me about
[TS]
00:30:02
◼
►
whether or not i'm supposed to tip in a
[TS]
00:30:04
◼
►
particular since you ask is i I'm asking
[TS]
00:30:07
◼
►
you because i feel like i have no idea
[TS]
00:30:10
◼
►
ok ok so here's a question Brady k i'm
[TS]
00:30:12
◼
►
in a hotel yeah i order room service
[TS]
00:30:14
◼
►
yep the room service is delivered to the
[TS]
00:30:16
◼
►
room yep do i tip yes or no yes
[TS]
00:30:19
◼
►
okay how much do i tip do i tip like the
[TS]
00:30:22
◼
►
person is a waiter or do I give them a
[TS]
00:30:26
◼
►
couple bucks
[TS]
00:30:27
◼
►
why don't know what you mean by do I tip
[TS]
00:30:29
◼
►
them as a way i would just give them one
[TS]
00:30:32
◼
►
or two bucks so what I mean by as a
[TS]
00:30:33
◼
►
waiter is do I give them a percentage of
[TS]
00:30:35
◼
►
the food bill
[TS]
00:30:36
◼
►
no not not a percentage of the food bill
[TS]
00:30:38
◼
►
ok this is this is my opinion by the way
[TS]
00:30:40
◼
►
I'm not but listen I just I just need
[TS]
00:30:43
◼
►
someone to tell me that's why would
[TS]
00:30:44
◼
►
because
[TS]
00:30:44
◼
►
I cannot tell you how much anxiety and
[TS]
00:30:48
◼
►
frankly how much radically inconsistent
[TS]
00:30:50
◼
►
tipping i did over the summer because it
[TS]
00:30:52
◼
►
was a bit like I feel ambushed I don't
[TS]
00:30:54
◼
►
know what to do right and I would just
[TS]
00:30:55
◼
►
do something and it was always wrong
[TS]
00:30:56
◼
►
okay you're saying room service just a
[TS]
00:30:58
◼
►
couple bucks to me it's like that's the
[TS]
00:31:00
◼
►
guy that delivers my pizza okay all
[TS]
00:31:03
◼
►
right now the hotel that I'm saying at
[TS]
00:31:07
◼
►
it ranges a complimentary ride to the
[TS]
00:31:10
◼
►
airport from the hotel yet do you tip
[TS]
00:31:12
◼
►
the driver
[TS]
00:31:13
◼
►
yep yes okay how much do you tip the
[TS]
00:31:16
◼
►
driver usually because I'm in a good
[TS]
00:31:19
◼
►
mode with those people that five bucks
[TS]
00:31:21
◼
►
five bucks
[TS]
00:31:22
◼
►
ok so they get five dollars yeah people
[TS]
00:31:24
◼
►
driving you okay
[TS]
00:31:25
◼
►
it feels to me like if it's a
[TS]
00:31:27
◼
►
complimentary ride I shouldn't have to
[TS]
00:31:28
◼
►
prepare for it in advance with money in
[TS]
00:31:30
◼
►
my pocket but ok ok if it wasn't the
[TS]
00:31:32
◼
►
driver who decided to let you have a
[TS]
00:31:34
◼
►
yeah right but presumably the driver
[TS]
00:31:37
◼
►
isn't there because now he is physically
[TS]
00:31:39
◼
►
changed the inside of the car presumably
[TS]
00:31:41
◼
►
he's there because he's getting paid to
[TS]
00:31:43
◼
►
yeah probably relate yeah isn't that how
[TS]
00:31:46
◼
►
society like I hope we find people to do
[TS]
00:31:48
◼
►
that I hope so i don't know how they
[TS]
00:31:49
◼
►
rock and Wyoming but then yeah okay so
[TS]
00:31:53
◼
►
now here is the one that I found the
[TS]
00:31:55
◼
►
most confusing and I don't know what to
[TS]
00:31:57
◼
►
do ok so my wife and I were in Las Vegas
[TS]
00:32:01
◼
►
there was a restaurant we were going to
[TS]
00:32:02
◼
►
a bunch of times
[TS]
00:32:03
◼
►
okay in a restaurant is the clearest
[TS]
00:32:06
◼
►
thing I understand what's going on and i
[TS]
00:32:08
◼
►
figure i guess like fifteen to twenty
[TS]
00:32:11
◼
►
percent tip is normal okay i understand
[TS]
00:32:13
◼
►
i can do this
[TS]
00:32:14
◼
►
ok here's the question though yep when I
[TS]
00:32:17
◼
►
go to that restaurant to pick up take
[TS]
00:32:21
◼
►
away food because my wife and I don't
[TS]
00:32:23
◼
►
want to actually spend any time in the
[TS]
00:32:24
◼
►
restaurant yet we just want to go back
[TS]
00:32:26
◼
►
to the room yep and they give me the
[TS]
00:32:28
◼
►
food yet what do i do then do I tip them
[TS]
00:32:31
◼
►
then no no tip at all no tip no tip at
[TS]
00:32:35
◼
►
all on the food not from Brady not from
[TS]
00:32:37
◼
►
Brady ok
[TS]
00:32:38
◼
►
complicating factor you've been there so
[TS]
00:32:41
◼
►
many times that the waitress obviously
[TS]
00:32:43
◼
►
knows who you are and it's the same
[TS]
00:32:45
◼
►
waitress who would normally serve you
[TS]
00:32:48
◼
►
handing you the food that you're taking
[TS]
00:32:51
◼
►
away do you tip yes or no
[TS]
00:32:53
◼
►
well no but if the amount is close to a
[TS]
00:32:57
◼
►
round number
[TS]
00:32:58
◼
►
I might do a cheeky keep the change in a
[TS]
00:33:00
◼
►
wink haha ok yeah ok keep the change in
[TS]
00:33:05
◼
►
a little wing because all this person
[TS]
00:33:07
◼
►
has done his hand you the food they
[TS]
00:33:08
◼
►
haven't liked being shuttling back and
[TS]
00:33:10
◼
►
forward five or six times and making
[TS]
00:33:12
◼
►
conversation with you and smiling a big
[TS]
00:33:13
◼
►
nice all they've done is literally
[TS]
00:33:15
◼
►
picked up a bag and put it in your hand
[TS]
00:33:17
◼
►
but if you've got a relationship with
[TS]
00:33:18
◼
►
the person and you're going to continue
[TS]
00:33:20
◼
►
that relationship and you want to keep
[TS]
00:33:21
◼
►
the report going and you want good
[TS]
00:33:24
◼
►
service next time then it can't hurt
[TS]
00:33:25
◼
►
just to grease the wheels but i think
[TS]
00:33:27
◼
►
there's no tip expectation you think
[TS]
00:33:29
◼
►
there's no tip expectation they're
[TS]
00:33:31
◼
►
certainly not from a certainly not from
[TS]
00:33:33
◼
►
mhm okay final one yep the bellman who
[TS]
00:33:38
◼
►
takes your bags at a hotel normally of
[TS]
00:33:41
◼
►
course I hold on to my bags with my dear
[TS]
00:33:42
◼
►
life because I just want to avoid the
[TS]
00:33:43
◼
►
typical situation right yes it's like
[TS]
00:33:45
◼
►
even if I obviously need help yeah i'm
[TS]
00:33:48
◼
►
going to suffer if it's gonna greatly
[TS]
00:33:50
◼
►
inconvenienced myself because of the
[TS]
00:33:52
◼
►
anxiety over the situation horse but
[TS]
00:33:54
◼
►
when i'm traveling with other people
[TS]
00:33:56
◼
►
there are many bags and it is too much
[TS]
00:33:57
◼
►
for one man to handle so I need the help
[TS]
00:34:00
◼
►
bellman when he takes your bags do you
[TS]
00:34:03
◼
►
tip him then as opposed to what at the
[TS]
00:34:06
◼
►
end when he drops them off ya know you
[TS]
00:34:07
◼
►
you tip when they're dropped off at the
[TS]
00:34:09
◼
►
ok ok but here was my conundrum on the
[TS]
00:34:13
◼
►
final day when I was in Las Vegas
[TS]
00:34:15
◼
►
yeah bellman has to take my bags yeah
[TS]
00:34:17
◼
►
and our flight isn't until much later in
[TS]
00:34:20
◼
►
the day so we're leaving them at the
[TS]
00:34:22
◼
►
yeah bellman takes the bags yeah i
[TS]
00:34:23
◼
►
tipped the bellman because i want the
[TS]
00:34:25
◼
►
bags taken well care of during the day
[TS]
00:34:27
◼
►
while i'm gone when I retrieved the bags
[TS]
00:34:31
◼
►
it's the same bellman who is retrieving
[TS]
00:34:34
◼
►
them again do i tip the same bellman
[TS]
00:34:35
◼
►
again like it every time I touch this
[TS]
00:34:37
◼
►
person no I'm sorry you made you've
[TS]
00:34:39
◼
►
already made a mistake you shouldn't
[TS]
00:34:40
◼
►
have tipped him at the stuff I've made a
[TS]
00:34:41
◼
►
mistake okay so you don't tip it when
[TS]
00:34:43
◼
►
you give bag yeah you do it at the end
[TS]
00:34:45
◼
►
when you get bags yeah and like maybe
[TS]
00:34:48
◼
►
it's not the same person but that stuff
[TS]
00:34:50
◼
►
evens out there and it swings and
[TS]
00:34:51
◼
►
roundabouts i'm sure they take it in
[TS]
00:34:53
◼
►
turns up being the first guy and the
[TS]
00:34:55
◼
►
last guy so they get their equal share
[TS]
00:34:56
◼
►
of the tips but i would have given the
[TS]
00:34:58
◼
►
tip at the start I could be wrong
[TS]
00:35:00
◼
►
because i know in America speaking tip
[TS]
00:35:02
◼
►
before they order their drinks which i
[TS]
00:35:03
◼
►
think is strange but I know that's a
[TS]
00:35:05
◼
►
thing so what
[TS]
00:35:06
◼
►
oh god okay i didn't even know that bar
[TS]
00:35:09
◼
►
sometimes you put a tip on the bar
[TS]
00:35:10
◼
►
before you even audio drinks
[TS]
00:35:12
◼
►
because she was like you're laying down
[TS]
00:35:13
◼
►
a marker that you're a good person to
[TS]
00:35:14
◼
►
give good service to but yes he once
[TS]
00:35:16
◼
►
again that just seems like bribery that
[TS]
00:35:18
◼
►
totally seems like bribery and the
[TS]
00:35:20
◼
►
restaurant at the hotel that I'm
[TS]
00:35:21
◼
►
thinking of they had a sign we said
[TS]
00:35:23
◼
►
please do not accept bribes from patrons
[TS]
00:35:24
◼
►
which I thought was really funny
[TS]
00:35:26
◼
►
ok Thank You Brady i will keep these as
[TS]
00:35:29
◼
►
ironclad rules
[TS]
00:35:31
◼
►
yeah for when to tip when not to tip it
[TS]
00:35:33
◼
►
got it right let me ask you something
[TS]
00:35:37
◼
►
yeah I know what your answer is going to
[TS]
00:35:39
◼
►
be but let me ask the wider community of
[TS]
00:35:41
◼
►
teams what they think because this is a
[TS]
00:35:43
◼
►
conundrum i sometimes have and I had the
[TS]
00:35:45
◼
►
other day if you see someone or your you
[TS]
00:35:48
◼
►
may have interaction with them or you
[TS]
00:35:50
◼
►
may just be in passing in there a
[TS]
00:35:51
◼
►
stranger and there is something that
[TS]
00:35:53
◼
►
they could have pointed out to them for
[TS]
00:35:55
◼
►
example a big tags out at the back of
[TS]
00:35:57
◼
►
their clothing or something is hanging
[TS]
00:36:00
◼
►
out of you know their trousers or
[TS]
00:36:02
◼
►
something do you alert them like they're
[TS]
00:36:04
◼
►
fly is unzipped is the kind of thing
[TS]
00:36:06
◼
►
that yeah that's another example that
[TS]
00:36:08
◼
►
some might get some more embarrassing
[TS]
00:36:09

[TS]
00:36:41
◼

situation where I thought that a woman's
[TS]
00:36:44
◼
►
skirt was riding up in an embarrassing
[TS]
00:36:46
◼
►
way and she was a stranger and i wanted
[TS]
00:36:49
◼
►
to point out and then she yelled at me
[TS]
00:36:51
◼
►
because she was just wearing yoga pants
[TS]
00:36:53
◼
►
and like a funny shirt that was sort of
[TS]
00:36:55
◼
►
half tucked in as like okay
[TS]
00:36:58
◼
►
never again like sorry i thought i was
[TS]
00:37:00
◼
►

[TS]
00:37:01
◼
►
learned one never get involved and to i
[TS]
00:37:05
◼
►
discovered what yoga pants which I've
[TS]
00:37:07
◼
►

[TS]
00:37:09
◼
►

[TS]
00:37:13
◼
►
of thing is never rewarded don't do this
[TS]
00:37:14
◼
►
and so now I would not get involved
[TS]
00:37:16
◼
►

[TS]
00:37:18
◼
►
would you be like oh hey
[TS]
00:37:19
◼
►
well you just reach over and tuck the
[TS]
00:37:21
◼
►
tag in on their shirt which 1i wouldn't
[TS]
00:37:23
◼
►
do that
[TS]
00:37:24
◼
►
usually at a guy would let go but
[TS]
00:37:27
◼
►
sometimes I point things that i was at
[TS]
00:37:29
◼
►
our wedding recently and there was a
[TS]
00:37:30
◼
►
lady there who like something that was
[TS]
00:37:32
◼
►
going wrong with our show very obviously
[TS]
00:37:34
◼
►
and I just felt like she would want to
[TS]
00:37:36
◼
►
know it's a wedding and she was looking
[TS]
00:37:38
◼
►
all pretty and it was a special day and
[TS]
00:37:40
◼
►
she wanted everyone to think she was
[TS]
00:37:41
◼
►
pretty and I didn't want people to be
[TS]
00:37:43
◼
►
talking about the thing wrong with her
[TS]
00:37:45
◼
►
shoe or Dan you know two hours later she
[TS]
00:37:47
◼
►
looked down and there are no I thought
[TS]
00:37:49
◼
►
it would diminish her day so I just
[TS]
00:37:51
◼
►
quietly pointed out to ensure our thank
[TS]
00:37:53
◼
►
you so much and she fixed it up and then
[TS]
00:37:54
◼
►
she could go back to looking fabulous so
[TS]
00:37:56
◼
►
I felt like I did her a favor but
[TS]
00:37:58
◼
►
generally i probably wouldn't say
[TS]
00:38:00
◼
►
anything
[TS]
00:38:01
◼
►
yeah but you can get away with these
[TS]
00:38:03
◼
►
things because you just give a smile and
[TS]
00:38:05
◼
►
that Brady wink just a wink
[TS]
00:38:07
◼
►
yeah yeah yeah there's a little tea
[TS]
00:38:09
◼
►
sounds you give them the link and
[TS]
00:38:11
◼
►
everything's okay i'm not a particularly
[TS]
00:38:13
◼
►
good winger gray i don't think i have a
[TS]
00:38:15
◼
►
sexy wink
[TS]
00:38:17
◼
►
I don't know I've never really been a
[TS]
00:38:19
◼
►
big one to use the winger maybe I don't
[TS]
00:38:21
◼
►
maybe this is a secret weapon I should
[TS]
00:38:22
◼
►
we all out but I've never been a big
[TS]
00:38:24
◼
►
drinker
[TS]
00:38:26
◼
►
it seems like this is something that you
[TS]
00:38:28
◼
►
should do you seem like a man who get
[TS]
00:38:30
◼
►
away with links now I'm not charismatic
[TS]
00:38:32
◼
►
enough I've got friends for winkers
[TS]
00:38:35
◼
►
I don't have the charisma polar wink off
[TS]
00:38:36
◼
►
you don't okay yeah i'm a few levels
[TS]
00:38:40
◼
►
below being able to be a winker you've
[TS]
00:38:44
◼
►
got to have a certain cheeky charm that
[TS]
00:38:45
◼
►
that I haven't got
[TS]
00:38:47
◼
►
I think you have a cheeky time Brady I
[TS]
00:38:48
◼
►
think you should try it out what could
[TS]
00:38:50
◼
►
possibly go wrong i have a small amount
[TS]
00:38:52
◼
►
of cheeky challenge but i do not have
[TS]
00:38:53
◼
►
anywhere near enough cheeky chap to be a
[TS]
00:38:55
◼
►
winker this episode has been sponsored
[TS]
00:38:59
◼
►
by the people of fracture and well I'm
[TS]
00:39:02
◼
►
localized to talk about them this week
[TS]
00:39:03
◼
►
because i've just received my own
[TS]
00:39:05
◼
►
fracture order teams will be aware that
[TS]
00:39:07
◼
►
I recently received a certificate from
[TS]
00:39:10
◼
►
the University of Nottingham and while
[TS]
00:39:12
◼
►
the original is safely stored here in my
[TS]
00:39:14
◼
►
office I thought my parents might
[TS]
00:39:16
◼
►
appreciate their own copy so rather
[TS]
00:39:18
◼
►
ingenious Lee I thought I scanned my
[TS]
00:39:21
◼
►
deployment high-resolution uploaded to
[TS]
00:39:24
◼
►
the fracture website and days later
[TS]
00:39:26
◼
►
received two copies printed onto a piece
[TS]
00:39:29
◼
►
of glass in the fracture style with the
[TS]
00:39:31
◼
►
laser-cut rigid backer ready to hang
[TS]
00:39:34
◼
►
straight out-of-the-box on walls back in
[TS]
00:39:36
◼
►
Australia
[TS]
00:39:37
◼
►
now I thought this was pretty clever and
[TS]
00:39:39
◼
►
I told the fracture people about it only
[TS]
00:39:40
◼
►
to learn this is actually a pretty
[TS]
00:39:42
◼
►
popular thing today so maybe I'm a bit
[TS]
00:39:45
◼
►
late to the party but it's still a cool
[TS]
00:39:47
◼
►
thing and if you have a special document
[TS]
00:39:49
◼
►
like a birth certificate degree some
[TS]
00:39:52
◼
►
kind of prize and you'd like to display
[TS]
00:39:54
◼
►

[TS]
00:41:12
◼

may be aware of the early days of hello
[TS]
00:41:15
◼
►
internet we had some discussions about
[TS]
00:41:17
◼
►
toothbrushes and I like to think I kind
[TS]
00:41:20
◼
►
of introduced you to the world of
[TS]
00:41:23
◼
►
electric toothbrushes which you then
[TS]
00:41:25
◼
►
adopted with gasto is that what happened
[TS]
00:41:28
◼
►
I don't think that's what happened at
[TS]
00:41:29
◼
►
all thought you started using electric
[TS]
00:41:30
◼
►
toothbrushes after i recommend it i feel
[TS]
00:41:32
◼
►
like i'm pretty sure i use an electric
[TS]
00:41:34
◼
►
toothbrush because my wife recommended i
[TS]
00:41:36
◼
►
don't think this was you
[TS]
00:41:37
◼
►
well that is possible she has got nicely
[TS]
00:41:39
◼
►
but anyway the thing is I then went from
[TS]
00:41:44
◼
►
electric toothbrushes back to
[TS]
00:41:48
◼
►
the old leaf and twigs you like to cola
[TS]
00:41:50
◼
►
i went back to and manual toothbrush and
[TS]
00:41:52
◼
►
my reason was as i put it at the time
[TS]
00:41:54
◼
►
was I want to brush my teeth more
[TS]
00:41:56
◼
►
violently right I want to really hit
[TS]
00:41:59
◼
►
them hard push hard and when you do that
[TS]
00:42:01
◼
►
with electric toothbrushes they usually
[TS]
00:42:02
◼
►
stop on things like that it sounded like
[TS]
00:42:04
◼
►
you just got a crap electric toothbrush
[TS]
00:42:06
◼
►
well maybe that maybe that's just to me
[TS]
00:42:08
◼
►
seems like an incredible Brady
[TS]
00:42:09
◼
►
characteristic and they want to feel
[TS]
00:42:11
◼
►
like it's hard and effective even if
[TS]
00:42:14
◼
►
it's less effective I like a good hard
[TS]
00:42:16
◼
►
as nails brush of the taste and I like
[TS]
00:42:17
◼
►
to you know push hard because I feel
[TS]
00:42:19
◼
►
like I'm really attacking the things in
[TS]
00:42:22
◼
►
my mouth that shouldn't be there
[TS]
00:42:24
◼
►
so anyway right that's what happened now
[TS]
00:42:27
◼
►
this seems fine with modern toothbrush
[TS]
00:42:29
◼
►
technology can handle this but in
[TS]
00:42:31
◼
►
another retrograde step when my argue my
[TS]
00:42:34
◼
►
wife recently purchased wooden
[TS]
00:42:37
◼
►
toothbrushes and i believe i sent you a
[TS]
00:42:39
◼
►
photo of one of these because we have a
[TS]
00:42:41
◼
►
very beautiful bathroom and it's very
[TS]
00:42:43
◼
►
old-fashioned and my wife didn't think
[TS]
00:42:46
◼
►
that plastic colorful modern
[TS]
00:42:49
◼
►
toothbrushes looked very nice in the
[TS]
00:42:51
◼
►
antique cuts that we were keeping the
[TS]
00:42:53
◼
►
toothbrushes in yes I can imagine this
[TS]
00:42:55
◼
►
say she found these wooden toothbrushes
[TS]
00:42:58
◼
►
which is basically instead of the usual
[TS]
00:43:00
◼
►
plastic handles would but it's still got
[TS]
00:43:02
◼
►
you know synthetic bristles it's not
[TS]
00:43:04
◼
►
like wooden bracelet with dad yet if you
[TS]
00:43:07
◼
►
give that time
[TS]
00:43:08
◼
►
give it time for a day we're gonna we're
[TS]
00:43:11
◼
►
gonna get the goats here one that later
[TS]
00:43:13
◼
►
this seems inevitable to me because for
[TS]
00:43:15
◼
►
the listeners when I have been to
[TS]
00:43:17
◼
►
brady's house I always have the same
[TS]
00:43:19
◼
►
thought which is this house is
[TS]
00:43:21
◼
►
magnificently appointed is beautiful it
[TS]
00:43:24
◼
►
is decorated really well and it is the
[TS]
00:43:27
◼
►
height of comfort and charm for 1910
[TS]
00:43:32
◼
►
everything in the house looks like this
[TS]
00:43:36
◼
►
is these pillows are amazing in 1910
[TS]
00:43:39
◼
►
these bath towels are amazing in 1910
[TS]
00:43:42
◼
►
and so the fact that you are now slowly
[TS]
00:43:44
◼
►
but inevitably approaching this dental
[TS]
00:43:48
◼
►
hygiene is amazing for 1910 I am 0%
[TS]
00:43:52
◼
►

00:44:14
◼
►

[TS]
00:44:22
◼
►

[TS]
00:44:47
◼
►
toothbrush so my toothbrush was not hard
[TS]
00:44:49
◼
►
as nails and this is what happened
[TS]
00:44:52
◼
►
this is why we make toothbrushes had a
[TS]
00:44:55
◼
►
plastic Brady we don't do it for no
[TS]
00:44:58
◼

reason we do it for this reason so that

it doesn't explode in your mouth you
[TS]
00:45:05
◼
►
don't end up with a mouth full of

splinters missiles if you're lucky and
[TS]
00:45:09
◼
►
splinters if you aren't right this is
[TS]
00:45:13
◼

and they're all drugged up and they're
[TS]
00:47:07
◼

going along the motorway at five miles
[TS]
00:47:09
◼

an hour and some 1920 car that's not
[TS]
00:47:12
◼
►
practical but it's still beautiful and
[TS]
00:47:15
◼
►
it's still fun you know what I think
[TS]
00:47:17
◼
►
every time I see one of those cars yeah
[TS]
00:47:18
◼
►
I have two thoughts
[TS]
00:47:20
◼
►
yeah one I do agree with you ready I
[TS]
00:47:22
◼
►
think wow that's a good-looking car they
[TS]
00:47:25
◼
►
don't make cars like that i saw a bunch
[TS]
00:47:27
◼
►
of classic American cars this summer and
[TS]
00:47:29
◼
►
every single time I thought good-looking
[TS]
00:47:31
◼
►
car and the second thing I think is if I
[TS]
00:47:35
◼
►
was king
[TS]
00:47:36
◼
►
I would ban all cars older than 10 years

00:47:38
◼
►
from driving on the road at all
[TS]
00:47:41
◼
►

[TS]
00:47:43
◼
►

[TS]
00:47:44
◼
►
if I was king

00:47:46
◼

[TS]
00:50:27
◼

components to the show there's like you
[TS]
00:50:29
◼
►
know interviews and archive footage but
[TS]
00:50:31
◼

a key part of any episode of air crash
[TS]
00:50:34
◼
►
investigation or Mayday
[TS]
00:50:36
◼
►
little reenactments and then there are
[TS]
00:50:39
◼
►
various roles for actors in these
[TS]
00:50:40
◼
►
reenactments and they're usually pretty
[TS]
00:50:42
◼
►
standardized and the main world's you
[TS]
00:50:45
◼
►
can have is passenger which i think is
[TS]
00:50:48
◼
►
pretty simple your job is to sort of
[TS]
00:50:50
◼
►
look happy and do up a seat belt and
[TS]
00:50:52
◼
►
think everything's wonderful and then
[TS]
00:50:53
◼

scream and be terrified for a couple
[TS]
00:50:56
◼
►
minutes at the end right
[TS]
00:50:57
◼
►
the key role i guess the Marquis row you
[TS]
00:51:00
◼
►
can have is pilot the way you have to
[TS]
00:51:03
◼
►
say lots of technical jargon from a
[TS]
00:51:04
◼
►
script that's obviously been given to

you from a transcript and you have to
[TS]

press buttons and look very assured and

suave except for the last five minutes

airship crash a dread that it had like
[TS]
00:56:42
◼
►
click the pole and things and I thought
[TS]
00:56:44
◼
►
this is going to be amazing and it was
[TS]
00:56:47
◼
►
this airship called a land 10 i think
[TS]
00:56:50
◼
►
it's cold it's the biggest aircraft in
[TS]
00:56:51
◼
►
the world it had its first flight the
[TS]
00:56:54
◼
►
week before this was a second flight and
[TS]
00:56:57
◼
►
it crashed
[TS]
00:56:58
◼
►
can you believe on a second flight so i
[TS]
00:57:01
◼
►
watch this video and i have to say not
[TS]
00:57:05
◼
►
the most exciting aircraft have ever
[TS]
00:57:07
◼
►
said gray have you seen this you send
[TS]
00:57:12
◼
►
this video to me
[TS]
00:57:14
◼
►
and said I want to show you this air
[TS]
00:57:18
◼
►
yeah and of course because i'm not
[TS]
00:57:20
◼
►
really in this world when you say
[TS]
00:57:22
◼
►
airship it doesn't even cross my mind
[TS]
00:57:24
◼
►
about the Hindenburg I'm just thinking
[TS]
00:57:26
◼
►
like a plane and so I loaded up and go
[TS]
00:57:27
◼
►
ahh thats weird i didn't really know
[TS]
00:57:29
◼
►
that we still made these things and I
[TS]
00:57:31
◼
►
think this is like a relic of the past
[TS]
00:57:32
◼
►
and and then watching the video is very
[TS]
00:57:37
◼
►
I wasn't even able to watch the whole
[TS]
00:57:39
◼
►
thing I had to jump around in my youtube
[TS]
00:57:42
◼
►
player because i like I cannot wait for
[TS]
00:57:45
◼
►
this airship to slowly approached the
[TS]
00:57:48
◼
►
ground and very gently make contact it
[TS]
00:57:52
◼
►
was more of an air kiss than air crash
[TS]
00:57:54
◼
►
wasn't it kinda guy i don't know the
[TS]
00:57:56
◼
►
motion to describe it I'm sure on the
[TS]
00:57:58
◼
►
inside it was not like this but from
[TS]
00:58:00
◼
►
watching it occur it looks like it's a
[TS]
00:58:02
◼
►
gentle bounce of the beach ball in
[TS]
00:58:05
◼
►
moon's gravity right is what it looked
[TS]
00:58:08
◼
►
that's that's where watching this is
[TS]
00:58:11
◼
►
like before I'd seen the footage i read
[TS]
00:58:13
◼
►
that i had nosedived and also give Wow
[TS]
00:58:16
◼
►
and nose-diving airship that's amazing i
[TS]
00:58:18
◼
►
would describe it as more of a belly
[TS]
00:58:20
◼
►
flop meets a nosedive almost like a chin
[TS]
00:58:23
◼
►
flop sort of gently falls down chin
[TS]
00:58:26
◼
►
first I mean the exciting thing is the
[TS]
00:58:28
◼
►
cockpit of this airship happens to be
[TS]
00:58:30
◼
►
right where it hit the ground who so it
[TS]
00:58:32
◼
►
did give the cockpit of a smash
[TS]
00:58:34
◼
►
thankfully the pilots weren't injured
[TS]
00:58:37
◼
►
I can't see how they could be really
[TS]
00:58:38
◼
►
good it's for this on their beach ball
[TS]
00:58:41
◼
►
on the moon but the thing it did make me
[TS]
00:58:44
◼
►
think is just like an airship can't seem
[TS]
00:58:48
◼
►
to even do a crash properly and food as
[TS]
00:58:52
◼
►
much as I like things old-school and
[TS]
00:58:53
◼
►
we've been talking about how I like
[TS]
00:58:55
◼
►
things old-school in this episode
[TS]
00:58:56
◼
►
airships to me feel like the technology
[TS]
00:59:00
◼
►
or the invention that humanity just
[TS]
00:59:01
◼
►
refuses to let go haha
[TS]
00:59:05
◼
►
despite the fact it's just not gonna
[TS]
00:59:07
◼
►
happen like it's like airships don't
[TS]
00:59:09
◼
►
realize we're just not that into them
[TS]
00:59:10
◼
►
and they just keep trying and like
[TS]
00:59:15
◼
►
obviously the Hindenburg was different
[TS]
00:59:16
◼
►
with the hydrogen and that you know we
[TS]
00:59:17
◼
►
don't use the flammable gases anymore
[TS]
00:59:19
◼
►
but apparently this thing this thing
[TS]
00:59:22
◼
►
called air land at ten was originally
[TS]
00:59:24
◼
►
commissioned by this company they're
[TS]
00:59:26
◼
►
going to make it for like the US
[TS]
00:59:27
◼
►
military
[TS]
00:59:28
◼
►
he is like a surveillance type thing and
[TS]
00:59:31
◼
►
then obviously the military came to
[TS]
00:59:32
◼
►
their senses and was thinking what the
[TS]
00:59:34
◼
►
hell will be drinking with a client
[TS]
00:59:35
◼
►
contract but the company said are now
[TS]
00:59:38
◼
►
we're going to keep going we're gonna
[TS]
00:59:39
◼
►
make him into passenger things are going
[TS]
00:59:41
◼
►
to find all these other uses for them
[TS]
00:59:43
◼
►
and they're talking about all these
[TS]
00:59:44
◼
►
things they think that their land attend
[TS]
00:59:46
◼
►
could be used for but i just think that
[TS]
00:59:49
◼
►
airships like I think they're kind of
[TS]
00:59:51
◼
►
cool and you know there is a romance to
[TS]
00:59:54
◼
►
them but they're just not gonna happen
[TS]
00:59:57
◼
►
I like that people keep making them and
[TS]
00:59:59
◼
►
it keeps
[TS]
00:59:59
◼
►
it keeps
[TS]
01:00:00
◼
►
they entertained but i would want to be
[TS]
01:00:02
◼
►
buying shares and put it that way I
[TS]
01:00:04
◼
►
wouldn't want my money to be on the
[TS]
01:00:06
◼
►
i'm looking at the at the wikipedia page
[TS]
01:00:08
◼
►
for these airships yeah it's hot and
[TS]
01:00:11
◼
►
vibrant air vehicles is the company and
[TS]
01:00:13
◼
►
air land 10 is this is the biggest
[TS]
01:00:15
◼
►
aircraft in the world is nearly a
[TS]
01:00:16
◼
►
hundred meters long
[TS]
01:00:17
◼
►
I mean just looking at pictures of
[TS]
01:00:19
◼
►
Zeppelin's and all of this stuff
[TS]
01:00:21
◼
►
this to me looks like a transport
[TS]
01:00:24
◼
►
vehicle that might be best suited for a
[TS]
01:00:28
◼
►
human colony on Jupiter it seems like on
[TS]
01:00:32
◼
►
anyway this is poorly optimized in every
[TS]
01:00:35
◼
►
its enormous ik take up an enormous
[TS]
01:00:39
◼
►
amount of space
[TS]
01:00:40
◼
►
yeah it seems like they hold a minuscule
[TS]
01:00:43
◼
►
amount of cargo or passengers and they
[TS]
01:00:46
◼
►
seem to travel very slowly so slowly
[TS]
01:00:50
◼
►
they can even crash properly but also I
[TS]
01:00:53
◼
►
mean what the military doing even
[TS]
01:00:55
◼
►
thinking about these things like the
[TS]
01:00:56
◼
►
military the last people like we all
[TS]
01:00:59
◼
►
know the saying you brought a knife to a
[TS]
01:01:00
◼
►
gunfight they bring them balloon to a
[TS]
01:01:03
◼
►
gunfight
[TS]
01:01:04
◼
►
yeah like yeah it's not stealthy it's
[TS]
01:01:07
◼
►
not still be it must be the easier you
[TS]
01:01:09
◼
►
know a kid with a slingshot could
[TS]
01:01:10
◼
►
probably bring it to the ground
[TS]
01:01:12
◼
►
uh-huh anyway there is one thing i was
[TS]
01:01:15
◼
►
looking at some pictures over and
[TS]
01:01:17
◼
►
understand Eunice this is one picture of
[TS]
01:01:19
◼
►
it which has been doing the rounds of it
[TS]
01:01:21
◼
►
lightly and it's on the wikipedia page
[TS]
01:01:22
◼
►
and so I think it's a publicity shot of
[TS]
01:01:24
◼
►
of the front of the airship tell me your
[TS]
01:01:27
◼
►
thoughts on this
[TS]
01:01:28
◼
►
it looks like a but it looks like looks
[TS]
01:01:30
◼
►
like big bomb it's completely does and
[TS]
01:01:34
◼
►
funnily enough as sophisticated as
[TS]
01:01:36
◼
►
grades are great and seemed to be one of
[TS]
01:01:38
◼
►
my friends who recognizes these funny
[TS]
01:01:41
◼
►
pictures more than anyone so I thought
[TS]
01:01:43
◼
►
you'd be amused by and i even i thought
[TS]
01:01:45
◼
►
that looks like a bumps are grazed
[TS]
01:01:46
◼
►
differently going to think it looks like
[TS]
01:01:47
◼
►
a bump and then I went was doing a bit
[TS]
01:01:49
◼
►
more googling about the airship because
[TS]
01:01:51
◼
►
it's actually called Martha Quinn that's
[TS]
01:01:53
◼
►
not new and I think that's an
[TS]
01:01:55
◼
►
interesting name
[TS]
01:01:56
◼
►
you know we like discussing how things
[TS]
01:01:57
◼
►
are named so I decided to look up why is
[TS]
01:01:59
◼
►
it called Martha Quinn and I googled
[TS]
01:02:01
◼
►
Martha Quinn and the first article i
[TS]
01:02:04
◼
►
found was mail online i'm afraid to save
[TS]
01:02:06
◼
►
anyway and the headline is the flying
[TS]
01:02:09
◼
►
bomb in quick man except that
[TS]
01:02:11
◼
►
is officially christened Martha Quinn
[TS]
01:02:13
◼
►
and that this was the point I found out
[TS]
01:02:15
◼
►
that this thing has been called the
[TS]
01:02:17
◼
►
flying bomb for ages and has been names
[TS]
01:02:19
◼
►
and people have been doing pictures of
[TS]
01:02:20
◼
►
it and so obviously is it's not a nice
[TS]
01:02:23
◼
►
look and in case you're wondering the
[TS]
01:02:24
◼
►
flying bomb being named Martha Quinn is
[TS]
01:02:28
◼
►
named after the company CEOs wife is
[TS]
01:02:32
◼
►
Martha because i thought this must be
[TS]
01:02:33
◼
►
some aviator I've never heard of you
[TS]
01:02:36
◼
►
know I thought it was gonna be a clever
[TS]
01:02:37
◼
►
name but it was just not phillip quinn
[TS]
01:02:39
◼
►
he's the chairman of hybrid vehicles and
[TS]
01:02:42
◼
►
his wife Martha Quinn sounds like a
[TS]
01:02:44
◼
►
derring-do person from the 1920s it does
[TS]
01:02:46
◼
►
it's ok it's a cool name but I can
[TS]
01:02:48
◼
►
already imagine her in a black-and-white
[TS]
01:02:50
◼
►
photograph with her goggles on
[TS]
01:02:52
◼
►
about to step aboard in a Zeppelin I can
[TS]
01:02:55
◼
►
totally see this but apparently that I
[TS]
01:02:57
◼
►
wonder what she thinks when she opens up
[TS]
01:02:59
◼
►
her daily mile and it says the flying
[TS]
01:03:01
◼
►
bomb is officially christened Martha
[TS]
01:03:03
◼
►
Quinn thanks love
[TS]
01:03:05
◼
►
thanks for that thanks for making my
[TS]
01:03:08
◼
►
name or two right by putting on
[TS]
01:03:09
◼
►
something that looks like a bum and
[TS]
01:03:11
◼
►
crashed on a second flat and not only
[TS]
01:03:13
◼
►
any bum an enormous bomb
[TS]
01:03:15
◼
►
perhaps the biggest that humans have
[TS]
01:03:17
◼
►
ever built but looking through the
[TS]
01:03:22
◼
►
wikipedia article the only thing that I
[TS]
01:03:23
◼
►
see here that is remotely oh maybe
[TS]
01:03:26
◼
►
that's what modern airships could be
[TS]
01:03:28
◼
►
used for is that the original design
[TS]
01:03:31
◼
►
plan was for long-term unmanned aerial
[TS]
01:03:37
◼
►
vehicles
[TS]
01:03:38
◼
►
yeah for surveillance and target
[TS]
01:03:40
◼
►
acquisition yeah and it feels like okay
[TS]
01:03:43
◼
►
I can kind of see that I know that
[TS]
01:03:46
◼
►
there's a big question about
[TS]
01:03:47
◼
►
surveillance and equipment in the
[TS]
01:03:50
◼
►
military and this idea of being able to
[TS]
01:03:51
◼
►
have a essentially permanent never has
[TS]
01:03:55
◼
►
to land fleet of surveillance vehicles
[TS]
01:03:57
◼
►
yeah and maybe I could I can imagine
[TS]
01:03:59
◼
►
that an airship when you just fill it
[TS]
01:04:02
◼
►
all up it has very low power
[TS]
01:04:03
◼
►
requirements it could serve as an
[TS]
01:04:07
◼
►
unmanned surveillance vehicle in an area
[TS]
01:04:09
◼
►
where you don't really care about being
[TS]
01:04:11
◼
►
sneaky like you already have troops on
[TS]
01:04:12
◼
►
the ground and you're just going to fill
[TS]
01:04:14
◼
►
the skies with a bunch of these vehicles
[TS]
01:04:17
◼
►
so may we that's a legitimate use case
[TS]
01:04:21
◼
►
but otherwise they do just seem comical
[TS]
01:04:22
◼
►
and looking like a gigantic bomb does
[TS]
01:04:24
◼
►

[TS]
01:05:24
◼

think i mentioned that uber getting into
[TS]
01:05:26
◼
►
the business of self-driving cars to me
[TS]
01:05:28
◼
►
was the most interesting news because if
[TS]
01:05:30
◼
►
there was any company have would push
[TS]
01:05:33
◼
►
ahead relentlessly being openly
[TS]
01:05:36
◼
►
disdainful about having to pay all of
[TS]
01:05:38
◼
►
the employees and not caring it was uber
[TS]
01:05:41
◼
►
and I thought we might get there first
[TS]
01:05:42
◼
►
but it seems like out of nowhere this

01:05:46
◼
►
company i have never heard of called new

[TS]
01:06:06
◼
►
it's a small number it's going to be six
[TS]
01:06:09
◼
►
there are some limitations about where
[TS]
01:06:11
◼
►
in the city they're going to go but it's
[TS]
01:06:13
◼
►
going to be the first time that there
[TS]
01:06:16
◼
►
are actual taxis that people can use
[TS]
01:06:18
◼
►
that will not be driven by humans
[TS]
01:06:22
◼
►
anywhere in the world there's a whole
[TS]
01:06:23
◼
►
bunch of asterisks on this but i still
[TS]
01:06:25
◼
►
think it is a interesting point to be at
[TS]
01:06:29
◼
►
and they've gone for a cute-looking
[TS]
01:06:31
◼
►
car then ubers Apache helicopter version

01:06:39
◼
►
friendly
[TS]
01:06:40
◼
►
yeah autonomy is going with the with the
[TS]
01:06:42
◼
►
friendly look it looks like they're
[TS]
01:06:43
◼
►
beating uber to do this by just a few
[TS]
01:06:47
◼
►
weeks because it's obviously is it
[TS]
01:06:50
◼
►
Pittsburghers at philadelphia i can't
[TS]
01:06:52
◼
►
remember where Hooper's doing that it is
[TS]
01:06:53
◼
►
is America
[TS]
01:06:54
◼
►
yeah whoever is going to do the same
[TS]
01:06:55
◼
►
thing with the self-driving cars what
[TS]
01:06:57
◼
►
they're both doing just for the time
[TS]
01:06:59
◼
►
being and for safety records that they
[TS]
01:07:00
◼
►
are going to actually have somebody in
[TS]
01:07:02
◼
►
the car like as a just in case is yeah
[TS]
01:07:05
◼
►
that doesn't can I think it totally
[TS]
01:07:07
◼
►
counts because if the person is not
[TS]
01:07:09
◼
►
driving if they're just there for
[TS]
01:07:11
◼
►
basically insurance purposes I view this
[TS]
01:07:13
◼
►
is like whatever I wouldn't be surprised
[TS]
01:07:16
◼
►
if this is just entirely to allay
[TS]
01:07:18
◼
►
people's concerns just for the time
[TS]
01:07:20
◼
►
being but like if humans aren't touching
[TS]
01:07:21
◼
►
the wheel is good enough for me it
[TS]
01:07:23
◼
►
doesn't matter if there's somebody in
[TS]
01:07:24
◼
►
the front here your fried but it's still
[TS]
01:07:26
◼
►
not quite the side it's not the magic
[TS]
01:07:28
◼
►
moment when there's just nothing there
[TS]
01:07:30
◼
►
it's not like KITT from Knight Riders
[TS]
01:07:31
◼
►
and no no it's not kit from Knight Rider
[TS]
01:07:33
◼
►
coming to pick you up here so that's why
[TS]
01:07:35
◼
►
i was saying before like there's a bunch
[TS]
01:07:36
◼
►
of asterisk around this but I'm still
[TS]
01:07:38
◼
►
saying this is a functional self-driving
[TS]
01:07:41
◼
►
car even if it's only in a confined area
[TS]
01:07:43
◼
►
even if there's still somebody in the
[TS]
01:07:45
◼
►
front seat is just another example to me
[TS]
01:07:47
◼
►
of like working technology a little bit
[TS]
01:07:50
◼
►
surprised still about the fast push for
[TS]
01:07:53
◼
►
the individual taxes because I still
[TS]
01:07:55
◼
►
always think like the low-hanging fruit
[TS]
01:07:57
◼
►
on this is self-driving long-haul
[TS]
01:08:00
◼
►
trucking like I really thought that
[TS]
01:08:02
◼
►
would be the very first place that this
[TS]
01:08:04
◼
►
happens even just like on the interstate
[TS]
01:08:06
◼
►
self driving trucks you know going from
[TS]
01:08:08
◼
►
like a depot outside of New York to a
[TS]
01:08:10
◼
►
Depot outside of San Francisco and he
[TS]
01:08:12
◼
►
was picking up the last mile but it
[TS]
01:08:14
◼
►
looks like human taxis are going to be
[TS]
01:08:15
◼
►
the first one and moving fast go
[TS]
01:08:18
◼
►
self-driving cars still counts even if
[TS]
01:08:20
◼
►
there's someone in the front seat which
[TS]
01:08:22
◼
►
does make it a little
[TS]
01:08:23
◼
►
what's the current state of play with
[TS]
01:08:24
◼
►
nomenclature I've seen Otto is popping
[TS]
01:08:27
◼
►
up a little bit lightly but I have you I
[TS]
01:08:30
◼
►
have nothing that i have not seen that
[TS]
01:08:32
◼
►
when i'm not sure if i should say this
[TS]
01:08:33
◼
►
but i am i'm working on a video which
[TS]
01:08:36
◼
►
may or may not be out either just before
[TS]
01:08:38
◼
►
or just after this podcast comes out
[TS]
01:08:40
◼
►
but I am mentioning self-driving cars in
[TS]
01:08:44
◼
►
the video i had a long think about it
[TS]
01:08:46
◼
►
like how do I want to do this and for
[TS]
01:08:49
◼
►
clarity's sake i decided to go with
[TS]
01:08:51
◼
►
self-driving car because I I don't
[TS]
01:08:53
◼
►
mention them very much in the video and
[TS]
01:08:57
◼
►
I thought you know what I don't want to
[TS]
01:08:58
◼
►
do I don't want to try to push what I
[TS]
01:08:59
◼
►
think is a term that is not going to win
[TS]
01:09:01
◼
►
for the difficulty of immediate
[TS]
01:09:04
◼
►
understanding for someone watching the
[TS]
01:09:06
◼
►
video so even in my own style guide i
[TS]
01:09:09
◼
►
have back to Hondo even though i totally
[TS]
01:09:11
◼
►
love it here is a question then in one
[TS]
01:09:13
◼
►
of your videos would you use the term
[TS]
01:09:16
◼
►
freebooting for copyright infringement
[TS]
01:09:18
◼
►
and uploading unauthorized media i would
[TS]
01:09:23
◼
►
not right i think if i was making a
[TS]
01:09:25
◼
►
video i'm trying to think this
[TS]
01:09:28
◼
►
circumstance where it would come up like
[TS]
01:09:30
◼
►
if it wasn't just a jokey reference in a
[TS]
01:09:32
◼
►
jokey way be happy to do freebooting and
[TS]
01:09:34
◼
►
I think if I was doing another video on
[TS]
01:09:36
◼
►
copyright infringement I would not use
[TS]
01:09:39
◼
►
the term freebooting I'd obviously you
[TS]
01:09:42
◼
►
tracking you break my heart just a
[TS]
01:09:44
◼
►
little bit i'm sorry Brady but i think
[TS]
01:09:47
◼
►
it's the same thing about when you're
[TS]
01:09:49
◼
►
making a video it's a question of
[TS]
01:09:50
◼
►
clarity and immediate understandability
[TS]
01:09:53
◼
►
to the audience like the point of
[TS]
01:09:56
◼
►
language is to convey an idea
[TS]
01:10:00
◼
►
I'm just cautious about using any kind
[TS]
01:10:02
◼
►
of terminology sometimes you've got to
[TS]
01:10:04
◼
►
be a later
[TS]
01:10:05
◼
►
sometimes you've gotta take the flame
[TS]
01:10:07
◼
►
and run with it other times you don't
[TS]
01:10:09

[TS]
01:10:57

that's run by a particular provider

◼
►
find that you have a responsive design
[TS]
01:11:26
◼
►
something that is going to automatically
[TS]
01:11:28
◼

◼

small computer screens but this is just

[TS]
01:12:32
◼
►
at all i was about to say for people who
[TS]
01:12:34
◼
►
don't know no one knows except you and I
[TS]
01:12:37
◼
►
we intend to record this episode a few
[TS]
01:12:39
◼
►
days ago and we had a technical problem
[TS]
01:12:42
◼
►
it was a graze and I hasten to add his
[TS]
01:12:44
◼
►
computer basically died on us
[TS]
01:12:46
◼
►
yep so we didn't record the episode but
[TS]
01:12:49
◼
►
about an hour before we were going to
[TS]
01:12:51
◼
►
record the episode a big news story
[TS]
01:12:54
◼
►
broken was all over my twitter feed and
[TS]
01:12:56
◼
►
it was all over the internet and this
[TS]
01:12:58
◼
►
was the discovery of an exoplanet around
[TS]
01:13:03
◼
►
the star Proxima Centauri which is the
[TS]
01:13:05
◼
►
closest star
[TS]
01:13:06
◼
►
to the Sun and the second closest star
[TS]
01:13:10
◼
►
to earth after the Sun so this was a big
[TS]
01:13:13
◼
►
deal and before we talk about that and I
[TS]
01:13:14
◼
►
do want to talk about it but before we
[TS]
01:13:16
◼
►
do it was a very interesting reminder to
[TS]
01:13:19
◼
►
me of something that great always talks
[TS]
01:13:21
◼
►
about about the importance of new
[TS]
01:13:23
◼
►
stories because at the time it seemed
[TS]
01:13:26
◼
►
like such a cracking story and I'll i
[TS]
01:13:28
◼
►
was reasonably excited about it and I
[TS]
01:13:30
◼
►
think we've got to talk about on the
[TS]
01:13:31
◼
►
podcast it's awesome like it's going to
[TS]
01:13:34
◼
►
be so much to talk about and then we had
[TS]
01:13:36
◼
►
to cancel their recording and do a
[TS]
01:13:38
◼
►
couple of days later I thought I can't
[TS]
01:13:40
◼
►
still going to be a big stories to a
[TS]
01:13:42
◼
►
really interesting and you know what two
[TS]
01:13:44
◼
►
or three days later
[TS]
01:13:45
◼
►
nothing it's just disappeared like it
[TS]
01:13:48
◼
►
never happened
[TS]
01:13:49
◼
►
it's disappeared into the ether like all
[TS]
01:13:51
◼
►
these stories day it was a nice little
[TS]
01:13:53
◼
►
reminder of Gray's little stories about
[TS]
01:13:56
◼
►
new stories that make a deal but that's
[TS]
01:13:59
◼
►
what I'm saying
[TS]
01:13:59
◼
►
yeah every one of these seems like it's
[TS]
01:14:02
◼
►
the most important thing in the moment
[TS]
01:14:04
◼
►
yeah and lo han these three days later
[TS]
01:14:08
◼
►
yeah it's already totally disappeared
[TS]
01:14:10
◼
►
but before I put more coal onto the fire
[TS]
01:14:13
◼
►
of grace Magnus let us move on because i
[TS]
01:14:16
◼
►
am a bit cynical about exoplanets to
[TS]
01:14:18
◼
►
which we may come to the reasons for
[TS]
01:14:19
◼
►
that in a minute
[TS]
01:14:20
◼
►
oh yeah but i do want to talk about the
[TS]
01:14:22
◼
►
story because even though it has died
[TS]
01:14:24
◼
►
down a bit
[TS]
01:14:25
◼
►
I think it's still pretty cool story and
[TS]
01:14:27
◼
►
I know literally nothing about this and
[TS]
01:14:30
◼
►
i would like to hear what the new story
[TS]
01:14:32
◼
►
was I haven't heard about it in in that
[TS]
01:14:33
◼
►
show these these astronomers it was
[TS]
01:14:35
◼
►
announced to the european southern
[TS]
01:14:37
◼
►
observatory press conference because
[TS]
01:14:38
◼
►
they've been using ESO telescopes will
[TS]
01:14:41
◼
►
do the work
[TS]
01:14:42
◼
►
this team has discovered that there is
[TS]
01:14:46
◼
►
they will call it an earthlike or
[TS]
01:14:49
◼
►
earth-sized planet orbiting the star
[TS]
01:14:52
◼
►
Proxima Centauri which is the closest
[TS]
01:14:54
◼
►
star to a son and its orbiting the star
[TS]
01:14:58
◼
►
in what they call the habitable zone
[TS]
01:15:02
◼
►
this is the zone at which temperatures
[TS]
01:15:04
◼
►
would allow water to be a liquid so it
[TS]
01:15:06
◼
►
wouldn't be frozen solid or a wooden boy
[TS]
01:15:08
◼
►
away because it's too close this gets
[TS]
01:15:10
◼
►
everyone excited because this raises the
[TS]
01:15:12
◼
►
possibility of life you've got liquid
[TS]
01:15:14
◼
►
water you've got a rocky planet which
[TS]
01:15:16
◼
►
could you know sustain life
[TS]
01:15:18
◼
►
that's the story and not show for people
[TS]
01:15:21
◼
►
who are not particularly interested in
[TS]
01:15:22
◼
►
astronomy and stars which from my
[TS]
01:15:25
◼
►
experience is most people i should point
[TS]
01:15:28
◼
►
out that Proxima Centauri is a very
[TS]
01:15:30
◼
►
small starts a red dwarf star and
[TS]
01:15:32
◼
►
amazingly considering its the closest
[TS]
01:15:34
◼
►
star to us after the Sun you cannot see
[TS]
01:15:36
◼
►
it in the sky
[TS]
01:15:37
◼
►
that's our fainted is so the nearest
[TS]
01:15:40
◼
►
star to us
[TS]
01:15:40
◼
►
you cannot see you can see Alpha
[TS]
01:15:43
◼
►
Centauri and is part of the Alpha
[TS]
01:15:45
◼
►
Centauri system which is two stars alpha
[TS]
01:15:47
◼
►
and beta Centauri and they think but
[TS]
01:15:50
◼
►
they're not sure interestingly enough
[TS]
01:15:51
◼
►
for something reasonably close they
[TS]
01:15:53
◼
►
think Proxima Centauri is sort of part
[TS]
01:15:55
◼
►
of this system it's a triple system that
[TS]
01:15:58
◼
►
Proxima Centauri's a little p star far
[TS]
01:16:01
◼
►
away orbiting very slowly around the two
[TS]
01:16:03
◼
►
bigger ones so there we go that's the
[TS]
01:16:05
◼
►
story now I think this is really
[TS]
01:16:07
◼
►
interesting obviously finding exoplanets
[TS]
01:16:10
◼
►
has become an industry and it's actually
[TS]
01:16:12
◼
►
an automated process now little most
[TS]
01:16:15
◼
►
exoplanets found automatically and i
[TS]
01:16:17
◼
►
might point out that this new planet
[TS]
01:16:19
◼
►
they have found around proxima centauri
[TS]
01:16:22
◼
►
they haven't seen it they can't see it
[TS]
01:16:24
◼
►
all they do is they measure the
[TS]
01:16:26
◼
►
gravitational effect that this planet
[TS]
01:16:29
◼
►
has on the star as it goes around just
[TS]
01:16:32
◼
►
like the star has a huge effect on the
[TS]
01:16:34
◼
►
planet the planet has a little effect on
[TS]
01:16:36
◼
►
the star and the style balls a little
[TS]
01:16:38
◼
►
bit because the planets going around
[TS]
01:16:39
◼
►
this little wobble of the star causes a
[TS]
01:16:42
◼
►
very slight movement in the light from
[TS]
01:16:45
◼
►
the star will get red shifted or
[TS]
01:16:46
◼
►
blue-shifted presumably relative to us
[TS]
01:16:49
◼
►
and they measure this very accurately
[TS]
01:16:51
◼
►
and from that they deduce a whole bunch
[TS]
01:16:53
◼
►
of things about the planet which is
[TS]
01:16:55
◼
►
terribly disappointing when you hear
[TS]
01:16:56
◼
►
that and you realize no one's actually
[TS]
01:16:57
◼
►
seen the planet they just say it's there
[TS]
01:17:00
◼
►
because they measure a wobble right
[TS]
01:17:02
◼
►
where people want is a photograph of a
[TS]
01:17:03
◼
►
planet with jungles lots of people are
[TS]
01:17:05
◼
►
looking for and astronomers who are very
[TS]
01:17:08
◼
►
good at marketing themselves are very
[TS]
01:17:10
◼
►
aware of that and they never announce
[TS]
01:17:11
◼
►
anything without artist impressions of
[TS]
01:17:13
◼
►
everything to help
[TS]
01:17:14
◼
►
so if you go online you see a million
[TS]
01:17:16
◼
►
pictures of this planet going around the
[TS]
01:17:19
◼
►
star and views from its surface and all
[TS]
01:17:21
◼
►
sorts of things but obviously these are
[TS]
01:17:22
◼
►
just all made up
[TS]
01:17:23
◼
►
I think this is quite interesting in the
[TS]
01:17:25
◼
►
world of exoplanet hunting though
[TS]
01:17:27
◼
►
because people are always trying to up
[TS]
01:17:29
◼
►
the ante with how many planets they
[TS]
01:17:30
◼
►
found and you
[TS]
01:17:31
◼
►
howarth like it could be and how good
[TS]
01:17:33
◼
►
they're getting out up but in a way
[TS]
01:17:35
◼
►
finding a planet in the habitable zone
[TS]
01:17:39
◼
►
that is Earth like around the closest
[TS]
01:17:41
◼
►
star to us it like ends the game in a
[TS]
01:17:44
◼
►
way doesn't know that's the holy grail
[TS]
01:17:46
◼
►
of exoplanets oh yeah if you could find
[TS]
01:17:50
◼
►
any exoplanet that would cause the most
[TS]
01:17:52
◼
►
excitement it would be on the closest
[TS]
01:17:55
◼
►
star to ask that's the easiest to get to
[TS]
01:17:56
◼
►
and it wouldn't be some supergiant and
[TS]
01:17:59
◼
►
it wouldn't be something you couldn't
[TS]
01:18:00
◼
►
leave honor to be a rocky one where
[TS]
01:18:02
◼
►
water could be liquid and that now
[TS]
01:18:03
◼
►
they're saying they've got up so why I'm
[TS]
01:18:06
◼
►
not for a second suggesting this is the
[TS]
01:18:08
◼
►
end of the world of exoplanet hunting
[TS]
01:18:10
◼
►
and things like that
[TS]
01:18:11
◼
►
obviously it's still just the beginning
[TS]
01:18:13
◼
►
in a way this announcement has trumped
[TS]
01:18:15
◼
►
everything any announcement that comes
[TS]
01:18:17
◼
►
after this to me seems like kind of
[TS]
01:18:21
◼
►
inferior doesn't like that's an
[TS]
01:18:23
◼
►
excellent point
[TS]
01:18:24
◼
►
this is Top Trumps this is the one this
[TS]
01:18:26
◼
►
is the dream one you're totally right
[TS]
01:18:29
◼
►
every announcement after this one is by
[TS]
01:18:32
◼
►
definition boring our yeah it's like all
[TS]
01:18:34
◼
►
could this have humans one day
[TS]
01:18:36
◼
►
well yes but wouldn't we go to Proxima
[TS]
01:18:38
◼
►
Centauri first we've already found one
[TS]
01:18:40
◼
►
like right so that's one thing I thought
[TS]
01:18:42
◼
►
about it the other thing I thought about
[TS]
01:18:44
◼
►
it was if the nearest star to us has a
[TS]
01:18:48
◼
►
planet like this is pretty much
[TS]
01:18:50
◼
►
suggesting that planets our dime a dozen
[TS]
01:18:52
◼
►
at night like if even the next star
[TS]
01:18:54
◼
►
overs got a planet going around like
[TS]
01:18:57
◼
►
this makes exoplanet seem incredibly
[TS]
01:18:59
◼
►
unremarkable now important and
[TS]
01:19:01
◼
►
interesting but it seems to me like
[TS]
01:19:03
◼
►
these are just a thing there we no
[TS]
01:19:05
◼
►
longer can be excited by this this is
[TS]
01:19:07
◼
►
one of these things that over my course
[TS]
01:19:11
◼
►
of time learning about physics and you
[TS]
01:19:14
◼
►
know doing physics and university that
[TS]
01:19:16
◼
►
this is the thing that has gone from we
[TS]
01:19:19
◼
►
speculate that there must be exoplanets
[TS]
01:19:21
◼
►
out there that was when i was in college
[TS]
01:19:23
◼
►
to at the time when I was teaching
[TS]
01:19:25
◼
►
physics in the UK remember trying to
[TS]
01:19:29
◼
►
like we've the story for students about
[TS]
01:19:31
◼
►
how like we used to not know and now we
[TS]
01:19:33
◼
►
know there are a whole bunch of them but
[TS]
01:19:35
◼
►
we don't know
[TS]
01:19:37
◼
►
how frequent they are like we're just
[TS]
01:19:39
◼
►
trying to raise the probability and the
[TS]
01:19:41
◼
►
more frequent they seem to be then
[TS]
01:19:43
◼
►
obviously the more likelihood there is
[TS]
01:19:44
◼
►
that there's life somewhere but yes
[TS]
01:19:47
◼
►
you're right if we've found one on the
[TS]
01:19:49
◼
►
star that is closest to us it doesn't
[TS]
01:19:52
◼
►
really prove anything from a statistical
[TS]
01:19:54
◼
►
vantage point it certainly makes it feel
[TS]
01:19:57
◼
►
like oh there must be planets around
[TS]
01:19:59
◼
►
every star it must be almost impossible
[TS]
01:20:00
◼
►
for a cloud of gas to condense into a
[TS]
01:20:04
◼
►
star without planets
[TS]
01:20:06
◼
►
yeah I like it must be almost improbable
[TS]
01:20:08
◼
►
for that too not occur obviously bearing
[TS]
01:20:10
◼
►
situations where you have multiple stars
[TS]
01:20:12
◼
►
and yeah gravity just screws everything
[TS]
01:20:13
◼
►
up and but yeah I don't you mean
[TS]
01:20:15
◼
►
so the other thing and you kind of
[TS]
01:20:18
◼
►
touched on in a way there that had this
[TS]
01:20:20
◼
►
has got me thinking about and this is
[TS]
01:20:21
◼
►
life elsewhere in the universe to be
[TS]
01:20:26
◼
►
galaxy whatever I don't know where you
[TS]
01:20:28
◼
►
stand on that likelihood of that you
[TS]
01:20:30
◼
►
know whether you think it's almost
[TS]
01:20:31
◼
►
inevitable it's highly unlikely but the
[TS]
01:20:35
◼
►
thing that has made me realize the way
[TS]
01:20:37
◼
►
this exoplanets have evolved in these
[TS]
01:20:39
◼
►
announcements have happened is that if
[TS]
01:20:41
◼
►
there is life somewhere else in the
[TS]
01:20:44
◼
►
universe and humans discover it it's not
[TS]
01:20:48
◼
►
going to be like Close Encounters of the
[TS]
01:20:50
◼
►
Third Kind obviously we're a spaceship
[TS]
01:20:52
◼
►
lands and they come out and say hello
[TS]
01:20:54
◼
►
but will have now realized it's also not
[TS]
01:20:56
◼
►
going to be like this incredible contact
[TS]
01:20:58
◼
►
moment with jodie foster out amongst the
[TS]
01:21:02
◼
►
satellite dishes
[TS]
01:21:03
◼
►
it's just gonna be a gradual series of
[TS]
01:21:05
◼
►
press releases its going to be we found
[TS]
01:21:09
◼
►
this exoplanet now we found this one
[TS]
01:21:11
◼
►
we've just found a signature that's
[TS]
01:21:13
◼
►
characteristic of this gas now we found
[TS]
01:21:15
◼
►
a signature that's character is this
[TS]
01:21:17
◼
►
now we found some evidence that suggests
[TS]
01:21:19
◼
►
this and we're just gonna get I think if
[TS]
01:21:21
◼
►
we are to discover life elsewhere and
[TS]
01:21:24
◼
►
it's to be announced
[TS]
01:21:26
◼
►
we're just going to be weaned on to the
[TS]
01:21:27
◼
►
idea and I think it's going to be
[TS]
01:21:29
◼
►
surprisingly unremarkable when it
[TS]
01:21:32
◼
►
happens
[TS]
01:21:33
◼
►
what do you say that well you're talking
[TS]
01:21:35
◼
►
about life elsewhere not intelligent
[TS]
01:21:38
◼
►
life well I even intelligent life i
[TS]
01:21:40
◼
►
think it could be sufficiently gradual
[TS]
01:21:42
◼
►
it's going to be a series of press
[TS]
01:21:44
◼
►
releases culminating with a press
[TS]
01:21:46
◼
►
release from the species that were for
[TS]
01:21:48
◼
►
getting in touch with yeah I do
[TS]
01:21:50
◼
►
I think we're going to see bits of
[TS]
01:21:52
◼
►
evidence that it could be hang on
[TS]
01:21:54
◼
►
there's a one-percent chance that this
[TS]
01:21:56
◼
►
could be caused by a civilization and
[TS]
01:21:59
◼
►
then they're going to be backward steps
[TS]
01:22:02
◼
►
and forward steps and i think it's going
[TS]
01:22:03
◼
►
to be quite gradual and the press
[TS]
01:22:05
◼
►
conferences are going to be exciting for
[TS]
01:22:08
◼
►
a day or two and then there's going to
[TS]
01:22:10
◼
►
be an earthquake and then there's going
[TS]
01:22:11
◼
►
to be a tsunami and then there's going
[TS]
01:22:13
◼
►
to be the Olympics and people are going
[TS]
01:22:14
◼
►
to calm down about it and then there's
[TS]
01:22:16
◼
►
going to be another press release and I
[TS]
01:22:18
◼
►
think the realization that there is even
[TS]
01:22:23
◼
►
intelligent life elsewhere when it
[TS]
01:22:25
◼
►
finally happens is going to be quite
[TS]
01:22:28
◼
►
different to what I imagined it might
[TS]
01:22:31
◼
►
have been the dramatic moment that
[TS]
01:22:33
◼
►
changed us forever who I don't think it
[TS]
01:22:35
◼
►
is going to be that I think we're going
[TS]
01:22:37
◼
►
to be quite blase about it by the time
[TS]
01:22:38
◼
►
it happens and that's a controversial
[TS]
01:22:40
◼
►
thing to say want not controversial
[TS]
01:22:42
◼
►
maybe just a stupid thing to say but I
[TS]
01:22:45
◼
►
suddenly think that I just think we are
[TS]
01:22:47
◼
►
so hard to impress now as humans and the
[TS]
01:22:50
◼
►
way science works is we kind of just
[TS]
01:22:52
◼
►
everything sneaks up on us to the point
[TS]
01:22:55
◼
►
that very little amazes us anymore
[TS]
01:22:57
◼
►
before you suggested this I would agree
[TS]
01:22:59
◼
►
with the idea that just like with most
[TS]
01:23:02
◼
►
things even the announcement I'd like we
[TS]
01:23:05
◼
►
know we found a planet and there's life
[TS]
01:23:07
◼
►
I not intelligent life but we can see
[TS]
01:23:08
◼
►
this creatures running around and plants
[TS]
01:23:10
◼
►
and stuff
[TS]
01:23:11
◼
►
yep i think most people wouldn't care
[TS]
01:23:13
◼
►
like that the vast majority of people
[TS]
01:23:15
◼
►
would be unmoved by this piece of
[TS]
01:23:16
◼
►
information what you're talking even if
[TS]
01:23:18
◼
►
it was like antelopes and trees not just
[TS]
01:23:20
◼
►
bacteria
[TS]
01:23:21
◼
►
yeah i think most people just sort of
[TS]
01:23:23
◼
►
wouldn't care and i agree with you that
[TS]
01:23:25
◼
►
we would almost certainly be walking
[TS]
01:23:27
◼
►
close to that in a very slow ways it
[TS]
01:23:29
◼
►
would be unremarkable i feel like i am
[TS]
01:23:31
◼
►
convinced that if if we are in a
[TS]
01:23:34
◼
►
situation where through our telescopes
[TS]
01:23:38
◼
►
we discover intelligent life elsewhere
[TS]
01:23:41
◼
►
that is unable to communicate with us
[TS]
01:23:44
◼
►
for some reason right like other still
[TS]
01:23:45
◼
►
building mud huts or whatever but
[TS]
01:23:47
◼
►
they're obviously intelligent yeah I
[TS]
01:23:49
◼
►
think you're right i could see a
[TS]
01:23:51
◼
►
scenario where this is just because it's
[TS]
01:23:54
◼
►
press releases is kind of boring and
[TS]
01:23:57
◼
►
it's not actually that big of a deal
[TS]
01:23:58
◼
►
it's because it's incremental if they
[TS]
01:24:00
◼
►
tomorrow found mud huts on Mars it would
[TS]
01:24:03
◼
►
be a big deal
[TS]
01:24:04
◼
►
but that's not how the mud huts will get
[TS]
01:24:05
◼
►
found yeah but yeah that's exactly what
[TS]
01:24:07
◼
►
we may be mud huts and maybe not mother
[TS]
01:24:09
◼
►
hats and then you know but also if it's
[TS]
01:24:11
◼
►
a situation where if there is no contact
[TS]
01:24:15
◼
►
moment it becomes a thing that is just
[TS]
01:24:20
◼
►
abstract in most people's life
[TS]
01:24:22
◼
►
oh there's people building huts on
[TS]
01:24:24
◼
►
planets elsewhere that we can't
[TS]
01:24:25
◼
►
communicate with yeah okay as long as
[TS]
01:24:28
◼
►
they're not gonna fire a laser right the
[TS]
01:24:30
◼
►
White House I don't really care
[TS]
01:24:32
◼
►
yeah like it doesn't affect things and I
[TS]
01:24:34
◼
►
think that the vast majority of people
[TS]
01:24:35
◼
►
have an amazing ability to not care
[TS]
01:24:37
◼
►
about things that affect them directly
[TS]
01:24:39
◼
►
and so yeah i agree with you that I can
[TS]
01:24:41
◼
►
foresee a scenario where intelligent
[TS]
01:24:45
◼
►
life is greeted with a met its discovery
[TS]
01:24:48
◼
►
like okay or like this exoplanet story
[TS]
01:24:51
◼
►
it's big news for three days and then
[TS]
01:24:53
◼
►
something else happens and then it
[TS]
01:24:55
◼
►
becomes a quiz question that you ask
[TS]
01:24:58
◼
►
people what is the name of the star
[TS]
01:25:00
◼
►
around which the first intelligent life
[TS]
01:25:01
◼
►
was discovered yeah like oh I should
[TS]
01:25:04
◼
►
know it actually yeah yeah yeah I also
[TS]
01:25:07
◼
►
say sometimes wonder when I go
[TS]
01:25:09
◼
►
especially when you go somewhere where
[TS]
01:25:10
◼
►
you can see lots of stars and you're
[TS]
01:25:12
◼
►
looking at them all weather in a
[TS]
01:25:15
◼
►
thousand years humans the future dresses
[TS]
01:25:18
◼
►
will look back at you and Mae and think
[TS]
01:25:20
◼
►
how adorably cute it was that we used to
[TS]
01:25:23
◼
►
look at the Stars and think maybe there
[TS]
01:25:25
◼
►
wasn't anything up there and that the
[TS]
01:25:27
◼
►
universe will be teeming with life and
[TS]
01:25:29
◼
►
people will look back at us and think is
[TS]
01:25:31
◼
►
not funny that you know Brady and
[TS]
01:25:32
◼
►
cgpgrey used to look up at the sky and
[TS]
01:25:34
◼
►
think are we alone maybe we are alone
[TS]
01:25:37
◼
►
but if we're not and the universe is
[TS]
01:25:39
◼
►
teeming with life we will seem so funny
[TS]
01:25:41
◼
►
to them like we would seem so adorably
[TS]
01:25:43
◼
►
naive that we used to look up at the sky
[TS]
01:25:45
◼
►
and think it was all empty and there was
[TS]
01:25:47
◼
►
nothing up there no one up there do you
[TS]
01:25:50
◼
►
ever think about that
[TS]
01:25:52
◼
►
I feel like surely we have touched upon
[TS]
01:25:54
◼
►
this before but that you know we had
[TS]
01:25:56
◼
►
that AI discussion a while back where I
[TS]
01:25:58
◼
►
said this is a thing that I've changed
[TS]
01:26:00
◼
►
my mind on and that has rocketed to like
[TS]
01:26:03
◼
►
the top of the list of things that I am
[TS]
01:26:05
◼
►
concerned about in the future
[TS]
01:26:07
◼
►
yeah like the very top maybe I could
[TS]
01:26:09
◼
►
list three things and i put AI and in
[TS]
01:26:11
◼
►
that list of three things
[TS]
01:26:13
◼
►
one of the other things that would be in
[TS]
01:26:15
◼
►
that top 3 which ever since i became
[TS]
01:26:18
◼
►
aware of it as has seemed like an
[TS]
01:26:20
◼
►
incredible concern is the Fermi paradox
[TS]
01:26:22
◼
►
this question of where is the other life
[TS]
01:26:27
◼
►
in the universe and my take on it my
[TS]
01:26:32
◼
►
starting assumption is that if there's
[TS]
01:26:34
◼
►
life once there should be life more than
[TS]
01:26:37
◼
►
once and the universe is really big so
[TS]
01:26:40
◼
►
my gut feeling is there should be life
[TS]
01:26:43
◼
►
everywhere but the Fermi paradox of
[TS]
01:26:45
◼
►
course like why haven't we actually
[TS]
01:26:46
◼
►
contacted anybody
[TS]
01:26:48
◼
►
yeah and I think about it a lot I think
[TS]
01:26:50
◼
►
it's a super super concerning question
[TS]
01:26:55
◼
►
there's a couple of bland answers to it
[TS]
01:26:58
◼
►
but I actually find the fact that we are
[TS]
01:27:00
◼
►
at a point in our technology where we
[TS]
01:27:02
◼
►
can conceivably receive messages and we
[TS]
01:27:06
◼
►
can send messages over great great
[TS]
01:27:09
◼
►
distances and we have got nothing back
[TS]
01:27:12
◼
►
I think it is one of the most concerning
[TS]
01:27:14
◼
►
things to think about when when you
[TS]
01:27:16
◼
►
start thinking about it seriously
[TS]
01:27:17
◼
►
so yeah I think about a lot and i find
[TS]
01:27:20
◼
►
it worrying i find it deeply worrying i
[TS]
01:27:23
◼
►
can see why you would think about a lot
[TS]
01:27:24
◼
►
because it's really interesting and it's
[TS]
01:27:27
◼
►
fun to think about
[TS]
01:27:28
◼
►
I can see what worries you I can see why
[TS]
01:27:31
◼
►
I worries you because I robot could come
[TS]
01:27:34
◼
►
and rip your head off tomorrow right
[TS]
01:27:35
◼
►
like or something could go wrong here on
[TS]
01:27:37
◼
►
earth a bit like people you know just
[TS]
01:27:39
◼
►
being selfish i don't see why the Fermi
[TS]
01:27:41
◼
►
paradox worries you
[TS]
01:27:43
◼
►
I can see why it perplexes you but I
[TS]
01:27:46
◼
►
can't see why it would like I didn't use
[TS]
01:27:49
◼
►
the word scared I can't see why would
[TS]
01:27:50
◼
►
scare you or concerned you would just be
[TS]
01:27:52
◼
►
like are like a crossword puzzle you
[TS]
01:27:53
◼
►
can't solve its just oh gosh that's
[TS]
01:27:56
◼
►
really tough i can't answer that
[TS]
01:27:57
◼
►
why does it worry you it's concerning to
[TS]
01:27:59
◼
►
me because one of the most probable
[TS]
01:28:03
◼
►
conclusions to draw is that there is
[TS]
01:28:07
◼
►
something in the universe which is anti
[TS]
01:28:13
◼
►
civilization in some ways like the
[TS]
01:28:15
◼
►
universe is more hostile to civilization
[TS]
01:28:18
◼
►
then we would think that it is okay and
[TS]
01:28:23
◼
►
and that there are very many things that
[TS]
01:28:24
◼
►
can possibly
[TS]
01:28:26
◼
►
cause that but it the the conclusion to
[TS]
01:28:29
◼
►
draw is like the only civilizations that
[TS]
01:28:31
◼
►
survive are the civilizations that don't
[TS]
01:28:33
◼
►
broadcast their existence
[TS]
01:28:34
◼
►
ok and we are broadcasting alex is right
[TS]
01:28:36
◼
►
and we are broadcasting our existing so
[TS]
01:28:39
◼
►
it's almost like the silence that's
[TS]
01:28:40
◼
►
raining down on us from space scares you
[TS]
01:28:42
◼
►
in the same way that if you walked into
[TS]
01:28:44
◼
►
a city that was completely empty and
[TS]
01:28:46
◼
►
quiet you would be scared you be
[TS]
01:28:48
◼
►
thinking why the new people here was i
[TS]
01:28:50
◼
►
quiet okay same space you're thinking
[TS]
01:28:52
◼
►
why the hell is so quiet up there when I
[TS]
01:28:54
◼
►
probably shouldn't be it is amazing that
[TS]
01:28:56
◼
►
you pick that analogy because that is
[TS]
01:28:57
◼
►
literally the feeling I have when I look
[TS]
01:28:59
◼
►
at the sky sometimes there is a feeling
[TS]
01:29:01
◼
►
of like we are one room lit in a city
[TS]
01:29:07
◼
►
full of empty lights right like that is
[TS]
01:29:11
◼
►
concerning that is a thing to note that
[TS]
01:29:14
◼
►
maybe everybody else with the lights off
[TS]
01:29:17
◼
►
knows something that we don't write or
[TS]
01:29:20
◼
►
like they're not there for some reason
[TS]
01:29:22
◼
►
but they were there is of course with
[TS]
01:29:25
◼
►
all these things get into the realm of
[TS]
01:29:27
◼
►
like things to speculate about and I
[TS]
01:29:29
◼
►
know that that's good man that makes the
[TS]
01:29:31
◼
►
night sky scary doesn't it that makes
[TS]
01:29:33
◼
►
looking up at the night sky go from
[TS]
01:29:35
◼
►
something that's beautiful and wonderful
[TS]
01:29:37
◼
►
to something that's deeply deeply
[TS]
01:29:39
◼
►
terrified I don't have it all the time
[TS]
01:29:41
◼
►
the the closest i can compare this to is
[TS]
01:29:43
◼
►
when i am in Hawaii and I look out at
[TS]
01:29:46
◼
►
the ocean i have this feeling of vertigo
[TS]
01:29:49
◼
►
that's very hard to explain but it's
[TS]
01:29:52
◼
►
like this feeling of like this island is
[TS]
01:29:54
◼
►
incredibly isolated from everywhere else
[TS]
01:29:57
◼
►
yeah that is always when I'm in Hawaii
[TS]
01:29:59
◼
►
so the night sky is not like that but it
[TS]
01:30:02
◼
►
is a thing that when i look at the night
[TS]
01:30:03
◼
►
sky if my mind starts going into that
[TS]
01:30:05
◼
►
place like I do feel uncomfortable like
[TS]
01:30:07
◼
►
there should be activity up here but
[TS]
01:30:11
◼
►
there is nothing so great we often joke
[TS]
01:30:14
◼
►
about if you were king of the world
[TS]
01:30:15
◼
►
things you wouldn't wouldn't do if you
[TS]
01:30:17
◼
►
were king of the world would you start
[TS]
01:30:19
◼
►
imposing restrictions on what was
[TS]
01:30:21
◼
►
getting away from Earth like sending
[TS]
01:30:23
◼
►
messages out for start and maybe even
[TS]
01:30:25
◼
►
sheltering arms general radio doors i
[TS]
01:30:28
◼
►
would you send us to ground basically
[TS]
01:30:29
◼
►
inside guys we need to shut the hell up
[TS]
01:30:32
◼
►
let's put it this way i would at the
[TS]
01:30:34
◼
►
very least form a team of people to look
[TS]
01:30:38
◼
►
but give me a cost analysis of what kind
[TS]
01:30:41
◼
►
of things in the world admit broadcast
[TS]
01:30:44
◼
►
that could be heard you know ten
[TS]
01:30:46
◼
►
light-years away like what equipment do
[TS]
01:30:49
◼
►
we have on earth is doing that right now
[TS]
01:30:50
◼
►
and what would it mean to ban this I
[TS]
01:30:54
◼
►
wouldn't least look into it I wouldn't
[TS]
01:30:56
◼
►
rule it out as I go this is just a crazy
[TS]
01:30:58
◼
►
idea if it came back that we know we
[TS]
01:31:00
◼
►
don't have an enormous amount of
[TS]
01:31:02
◼
►
technology that is doing this and say
[TS]
01:31:03
◼
►
like well maybe we should sit down the
[TS]
01:31:05
◼
►
things that are I would look into it
[TS]
01:31:07
◼
►
I'm not saying I would do anything about
[TS]
01:31:09
◼
►
it if it came back and they said like oh
[TS]
01:31:10
◼
►
we have to spend fifty percent of our
[TS]
01:31:11
◼
►
gdp on this and be like okay well I have
[TS]
01:31:14
◼
►
to weigh our potential destruction of
[TS]
01:31:16
◼
►
civilization versus a loss of fifty
[TS]
01:31:18
◼
►
percent of GDP and like maybe it's not
[TS]
01:31:20
◼
►
sensible to do i would investigate I
[TS]
01:31:22
◼
►
would investigate Brady that's what i
[TS]
01:31:23
◼
►
would do what do you think of having
[TS]
01:31:27
◼
►
people who are appointed to speak with
[TS]
01:31:31
◼
►
aliens if they have a contact us
[TS]
01:31:33
◼
►
well I mean what my view on it is ok you
[TS]
01:31:36
◼
►
know you gotta you gotta plan for all of
[TS]
01:31:38
◼
►
the scenarios but I i don't think the
[TS]
01:31:40
◼
►
empty night sky holds a lot of promise
[TS]
01:31:43
◼
►
for getting in touch with other aliens
[TS]
01:31:47
◼
►
yeah there's a couple of reasons why the
[TS]
01:31:50
◼
►
night sky might be empty that are benign
[TS]
01:31:51
◼
►
but I feel like we've had city running
[TS]
01:31:54
◼
►
for a long time obviously it's a big sky
[TS]
01:31:57
◼
►
to search but I feel like if there was a
[TS]
01:31:59
◼
►
civilization that came before us that we
[TS]
01:32:02
◼
►
would know about it if they wanted to
[TS]
01:32:03
◼
►
get in touch with us sort of like you
[TS]
01:32:06
◼
►
know we mentioned the Guns Germs and
[TS]
01:32:07
◼
►
Steel episode about how even on the same
[TS]
01:32:11
◼
►
planet the technological difference
[TS]
01:32:12
◼
►
between the Europeans and the Native
[TS]
01:32:14
◼
►
Americans was just too vast to be
[TS]
01:32:17
◼
►
overcome that in the universe if there's
[TS]
01:32:19
◼
►
other intelligent life it you know
[TS]
01:32:21
◼
►
statistically it's very unlikely that we
[TS]
01:32:23
◼
►
are the first I mean even if you imagine
[TS]
01:32:25
◼
►
a civilization that's 200 years ahead of
[TS]
01:32:28
◼
►
where we are now since technological
[TS]
01:32:30
◼
►
progress is exponential it seems like
[TS]
01:32:32
◼
►
they should have borderline magic
[TS]
01:32:34
◼
►
technology and so if they wanted to get
[TS]
01:32:37
◼
►
in touch
[TS]
01:32:38
◼
►
they could get in touch I think maybe
[TS]
01:32:41
◼
►
they could then maybe they're just
[TS]
01:32:42
◼

committee i gotta i will try to be

prepared for a scenario that i think is
[TS]
01:34:30
◼

incredibly unlikely
[TS]
01:34:31
◼

yeah let's just hope it doesn't happen
[TS]
01:34:32
◼

during your month-long and your vacation
[TS]
01:34:35
◼

just right yeah that's true if you're
[TS]
01:34:37
◼
►
sending me a message in August that the
[TS]
01:34:39
◼

aliens have landed on earth it is very
[TS]
01:34:41
◼
►
likely that 1i will not receive your
[TS]
01:34:43
◼
►
message and 2i have missed that news
[TS]
01:34:46
◼
►
I will not be aware of this so yes 11
[TS]
01:34:50
◼
►
months out of the year good that was
[TS]
01:34:51
◼
►
sort of land on the lawn of the white
[TS]
01:34:52
◼
►
house and we'll say can you just wait
[TS]
01:34:54
◼
►
two weeks we're gonna race studies do
[TS]
01:34:55
◼
►
not disturb on
[TS]
01:34:57
◼
►
yes but like i said i think that is the
[TS]
01:34:59
◼
►
vastly less likely probability more
[TS]
01:35:03
◼
►
likely probability is sudden
[TS]
01:35:06
◼
►
inexplicable death descends from the sky
[TS]
01:35:08
◼
►
and consumes the earth that's more
[TS]
01:35:11
◼
►
likely yeah that's just that's going to
[TS]
01:35:13
◼
►
be bad but anyway that's funny thing
[TS]
01:35:16
◼
►
about this exoplanet the right like I
[TS]
01:35:18
◼
►
feel like this somehow changes the
[TS]
01:35:20
◼
►
calculus a little bit like what's your
[TS]
01:35:22
◼
►
gut feeling do you think there's life on
[TS]
01:35:24
◼
►
this planet any kind of life not
[TS]
01:35:25
◼
►
intelligent life absolutely not and
[TS]
01:35:27
◼
►
there's been a few things that have been
[TS]
01:35:29
◼
►
less well reported about this discovery
[TS]
01:35:33
◼
►
ok tell me tell me one being that the
[TS]
01:35:36
◼
►
star a red dwarf stars particular red
[TS]
01:35:39
◼
►
dwarf star Proxima Centauri is quite a
[TS]
01:35:41
◼
►
hostile star it sends out a lot of
[TS]
01:35:44
◼
►
flares it's not as friendly as a son if
[TS]
01:35:47
◼
►
you want to call this unfriendly which
[TS]
01:35:48
◼
►
is an interesting calling itself so it's
[TS]
01:35:50
◼
►
very hostile now it was probably more
[TS]
01:35:52
◼
►
hostile before so any chance of life
[TS]
01:35:55
◼
►
being there is probably being constantly
[TS]
01:35:57
◼
►
quashed or has been quashed in the past
[TS]
01:36:00
◼
►
any atmosphere may well have been
[TS]
01:36:03
◼
►
obliterated it would not be a very life
[TS]
01:36:06
◼
►
conducive place lots of astronomer terms
[TS]
01:36:09
◼
►
like earth-like and habitable do not
[TS]
01:36:12
◼
►
mean like the earth or write that can be
[TS]
01:36:15
◼
►
habit of that we think say I think it's
[TS]
01:36:18
◼
►
very unlikely there's life on this
[TS]
01:36:20
◼
►
planet and so far most of the experts
[TS]
01:36:21
◼
►
I've heard talk about it have said
[TS]
01:36:24
◼
►
similar things it's only like the normal
[TS]
01:36:25
◼
►
news that talks about things like I the
[TS]
01:36:28
◼
►
possibility of life or bay the
[TS]
01:36:30
◼
►
possibility of us are going there like
[TS]
01:36:31
◼
►
some kind of noah's ark but yeah the
[TS]
01:36:34
◼
►
second possibility is dumb
[TS]
01:36:36
◼
►
I mean I forget Alpha Centauri is what
[TS]
01:36:38
◼
►
like four light-years away yeah it's
[TS]
01:36:40
◼
►
obvious the system's about for
[TS]
01:36:42
◼
►
approximately bit over four light-years
[TS]
01:36:43
◼
►
away right okay so yeah it going there
[TS]
01:36:47
◼
►
obviously not a realistic probability
[TS]
01:36:49
◼
►
when I think about life existing i
[TS]
01:36:50
◼
►
always think about the extreme files you
[TS]
01:36:53
◼
►
know that these like little bacteria or
[TS]
01:36:55
◼
►
creatures that live in seemingly
[TS]
01:36:57
◼
►
shockingly hostile environments like the
[TS]
01:37:00
◼
►
things living at the bottom of the ocean
[TS]
01:37:02
◼
►
by those trenches
[TS]
01:37:03
◼
►
yeah we're 3 where you have water that
[TS]
01:37:05
◼
►
can't boil even though it's hundreds and
[TS]
01:37:07
◼
►
hundreds of degrees in temperature
[TS]
01:37:08
◼
►
because of the pressure as I oh but
[TS]
01:37:10
◼
►
there's little
[TS]
01:37:11
◼
►
creatures that live in this environment
[TS]
01:37:12
◼
►
that's kind of what I'm thinking about
[TS]
01:37:14
◼
►
like oh if there's a planet if there's
[TS]
01:37:17
◼
►
water it just seems to me like water so
[TS]
01:37:19
◼
►
dramatically increases the probability
[TS]
01:37:20
◼
►
help me understand that then because I
[TS]
01:37:22
◼
►
never understand this like I always
[TS]
01:37:25
◼
►
think it's arrogant that we assume life
[TS]
01:37:28
◼
►
is so intrinsically linked to water and
[TS]
01:37:31
◼
►
therefore if they've got liquid water on
[TS]
01:37:32
◼
►
the planet
[TS]
01:37:33
◼
►
you know you've got laughs what is so
[TS]
01:37:35
◼
►
special about water that connects it to
[TS]
01:37:38
◼
►
life in terms that are arrogant and just
[TS]
01:37:41
◼
►
aren't like what every sort of life
[TS]
01:37:43
◼
►
we've ever seen before involves water
[TS]
01:37:44
◼
►
because that seems very narrow-minded
[TS]
01:37:46
◼
►
today that is narrow-minded but my view
[TS]
01:37:48
◼
►
of it is this is a kind of
[TS]
01:37:50
◼
►
anthropomorphic viewpoint here where
[TS]
01:37:52
◼
►
we're talking about
[TS]
01:37:54
◼
►
we know that on earth water is important
[TS]
01:37:58
◼
►
for life on Earth and so it seems to me
[TS]
01:38:01
◼
►
quite reasonable to extract from that
[TS]
01:38:03
◼
►
that where else there is liquid water
[TS]
01:38:05
◼
►
there is the possibility of life right
[TS]
01:38:09
◼
►
and so I mean at least my understanding
[TS]
01:38:11
◼
►
of it with chemistry is that water acts
[TS]
01:38:14
◼
►
as this agent that allows vastly more
[TS]
01:38:17
◼
►
chemical interactions to occur and so if
[TS]
01:38:20
◼
►
you just have a place where there's
[TS]
01:38:21
◼
►
water you're going to get more random
[TS]
01:38:23
◼
►
chemistry and all you need is like a
[TS]
01:38:25
◼
►
prion like just a chemical that
[TS]
01:38:28
◼
►
reproduces itself through total random
[TS]
01:38:30
◼
►
chance just by combining with other
[TS]
01:38:32
◼
►
chemicals in the same environment like
[TS]
01:38:34
◼
►
that's all you need to get this ball
[TS]
01:38:36
◼
►
rolling downhill that will slowly slowly
[TS]
01:38:39
◼
►
accelerate overtime and so that's why I
[TS]
01:38:41
◼
►
think like Oh once there's water my gut
[TS]
01:38:44
◼
►
instinct is there's something in there
[TS]
01:38:47
◼
►
that's like life even if it's very very
[TS]
01:38:52
◼
►
very basic you know like bacteria virus
[TS]
01:38:57
◼
►
level kind of reproduction but that's
[TS]
01:39:00
◼
►
kind of my gut feeling
[TS]
01:39:02
◼
►
yeah but of course we have a sample size
[TS]
01:39:04
◼
►
of one this is the whole thing right
[TS]
01:39:06
◼
►
maybe life is incredibly rare
[TS]
01:39:09
◼
►
maybe it's not we just don't know we
[TS]
01:39:11
◼
►
don't have any real way to know but I
[TS]
01:39:13
◼
►
leaned on the side of i think it is more
[TS]
01:39:16
◼
►
probable than
[TS]
01:39:17
◼
►
rare that's my personal guess anyway I
[TS]
01:39:20
◼
►
was having a bit of a read about this
[TS]
01:39:22
◼
►
area and you know proxima centauri and
[TS]
01:39:24
◼
►
and plans to travel there and how we
[TS]
01:39:26
◼
►
could go there and obviously there are
[TS]
01:39:28
◼
►
all sorts of things that are put out
[TS]
01:39:30
◼
►
their suggestions and one that i was
[TS]
01:39:32
◼
►
reading about that got a bit of
[TS]
01:39:34
◼
►
publicity a while ago but it kind of
[TS]
01:39:35
◼
►
passed me by and I had never read much
[TS]
01:39:37
◼
►
about it before but I read a bit about
[TS]
01:39:38
◼
►
it today it was cold breakthrough
[TS]
01:39:41
◼

starshot and it was this one wasn't you
[TS]
01:39:43
◼

know it was yuri milner the venture
[TS]
01:39:45
◼

capitalists and stephen hawking was
[TS]
01:39:47
◼

involved you know every time anyone
[TS]
01:39:48
◼
►
makes a billion dollars a straightaway
[TS]
01:39:49
◼
►
start some kind of space operation
[TS]
01:39:52
◼

apparently that's what to do now here
[TS]
01:39:54
◼
►
that's what you do and all these people
[TS]
01:39:56
◼
►
involved is upon and i was reading about
[TS]
01:39:58
◼
►
the concept and the concept i think is
[TS]
01:40:00
◼
►
basically to create a swarm of these
[TS]
01:40:03
◼
►
tiny little space ships that are like
[TS]
01:40:05
◼
►
measured in centimeters across each one
[TS]
01:40:09
◼
►
with a a lifestyle of about sort of four
[TS]
01:40:11
◼
►
meters in size and you send them all up
[TS]
01:40:13
◼
►
into a sort of high up to know just
[TS]
01:40:15
◼
►
above the earth and then you open up
[TS]
01:40:17
◼
►
these sales and then you fire these
[TS]
01:40:19
◼
►
incredibly incredibly powerful lasers at
[TS]
01:40:23
◼
►
these light sales and then you send off
[TS]
01:40:26
◼
►
all of these this swarm of thousands and
[TS]
01:40:29
◼
►
thousands of spacecraft at speeds of
[TS]
01:40:31
◼

about i think it's ten or twenty percent
[TS]
01:40:34
◼

speed of light so ridiculous spades you
[TS]
01:40:37
◼

send them off to the Latino Proxima
[TS]
01:40:39
◼

Centauri Alpha Centauri and they go past
[TS]
01:40:41
◼

and hopefully get a few pictures or
[TS]
01:40:43
◼

whatever on the way past and it's this
[TS]
01:40:46

like you notice we incredible incredible

thing i was reading about on this squat

challenges i think is the road in like

four or five sentences some of the

technical challenges you have making a

swarm of spaceships gonna get twenty
