“What the clueless guy knows, just laughing at me, this bitch, dude. He couldn't even. It's a great follow-up question, too. So it was like Adderall and stuff? Yeah, because I would like pass out from drinking at my house because I got a bunch of people over. But I would hear them having fun downstairs. And I'm like, dude, I'm missing out on the party.”

“So then, yeah, you just start popping pills and doing whatever to try to keep drinking. I've never done Adderall. What's it feel like? Well, I like cocaine. It's the same shit. Right. It is. Yeah, I can't have it. I can't have it. It doesn't help me study. I tried it in college. I was in a library. I started just chatting with everybody.”

“What did you do to get kicked out of a Beastie Boys concert? What the hell? That's impressive. Well, it was actually. So for some reason, whenever I take Adderall, and I've only ever taken it a handful of times while drinking, I get it in my head that I have way more capabilities than I do. So I was sitting there and I'm like, I'm just like, I was on this level.”

“Yeah, not good. I can't do it. That's great. It was pretty old. I don't know why everyone isn't doing it. Adderall is great when you have OCD, too, because you'll just like organize a sock drawer you never looked at. Yeah, I don't. I give myself the worst missions possible. And then I just, I do them, though. I get them done, but they're not. I'll write like a new hour of material in Adderall.”

“Like, what a dumb thing. This is such a scam. Yeah, that's pretty tough. They're like that. Do you ever see the cacao ceremonies people do? They like drink hot chocolate and they're like, whoa, I'm tripping. There's a real thing. It's called cacao ceremony. I haven't seen that. They like drink a lot of hot chocolate and they're like, oh my God, my pineal gland's opening up.”

“You don't send a car to be exercised and going to Brazil to be exercised. It's insane to me. I think into the little, but the cacao thing, I've seen them in like Cuya, that hot and cold place that's here. They do these cacao things. I do look at it and sometimes think that's just like a Horlicks or like a Nesquick.”

“Like, what are we doing? Yeah, it's a thing, man. That's a cacao. It's like that's like the super light psychedelic people go for. They go, I'll do the cacao ceremony if you don't want to do it. Yeah, I feel like I would do that. I wouldn't do the psychedelic, but I'd do the cacao ceremony. Yeah, I might do one this afternoon.”

“We should all be awesome. That would be awesome. Go rock and roll. Get some cacao and some set our fucking health. That's weird, though. The alcohol thing, like I know people that when they get, when they drink, they get they're crying in the corner about I know some other dude's gonna fight everybody, someone else is laughing, someone else gets super social.”

“And the legislation can't catch up quickly enough. And that's going on with this world. It was the farm bill. The farm bill said the farm bill that people, you could grow CBD, basically, which like hemp is weed. They're the same things. It's just like you can kind of, you know, curate it to have different cannabis or whatever cannabinoids.”

“So you can grow weed with THC. That's weed. If you grow weed with CBD, it's hemp. It's like, you know, it's the same exact plant. But then you could do the thing where if you take every CBD plant has like 0.3% THC, but if you grow a whole field of it, you could isolate all that THC and get like thousands of grams if it's pure THC.”

“No, no, no. I got a question for Matt. Yeah. You still drinking raw milk straight from the absolutely. Yeah, dude. Absolutely. Are you against raw milk? Not at all. That was awesome. You told me about it. I was like, I got to try that. It rules. The problem is my commitment to finding this fucking milk was not as committed as yours.”

“What's the sales case for raw milk? I have, if I drink regular pasteurized milk, I get congested. I fart. I'm like lactose intolerant. If I drink raw milk, no problem. You strike me as a raw milk guy. Yeah, we get some raw milk on. It's awesome. Yeah. The only thing that sucks about it is it goes bad really quick.”

“at Y Combinator, how many hours per day can you be productive? He says, well, if you're taking Armodafinil, you know, up to kind of 18 or 20, I suppose. And you think, oh, yeah, actually, if you're in some fast-paced tech organization, there is no limit.”

“And then that gives me like a little rush of like, we did it today. We're in here. You know, we're, we're doing that. And then I do smoke a shit ton of cigars. Chuck. And yeah, so those are the main things. Did you do drugs too when you were drinking all the time? Yeah, I was doing a lot of pills with the drinking, you know, because then I could stay awake.”

“what made me take it seriously. I wrote a book called Extreme Ownership, which is about like taking ownership of what's going on. It seemed like another move could have just been like, own it. Like, hell yeah, dude, it was a good guy. You're a comedian, right? You should be like, hey, yeah, dude, yeah, I go hard.”

“Volta. It is difficult. Is that AI cake? What's going on here? Dude, apparently, so that guy, John Krakauer, who had the whole in the thin air thing, he wrote that book being like, nobody should do this. It's so dangerous. You can die. And he said, like, you know, years after it published, the guides called, like, what are those dudes called?”

“Yeah, that's like the Lord of the Flies. It's like the guys in the back of the kids at the back of the class that always sit in a row and they always disrupt everybody else. And you're like, hey, no, you, you, you're going to be over there. You're on a different concept of the movie, The Dirty Dozen, right?”

“How hard can it be, man? Ready to go, pretty much. Yeah, just let me know. I bought this watch at Panerai. It's a Navy SEAL. So I think I'm ready to rock, dude. How much is it? What's the physical requirement? Like, what would you ask? The physical requirements are pretty low, actually. They're not anything crazy.”

“What's the sales case for raw milk? I have, if I drink regular pasteurized milk, I get congested. I fart. I'm like lactose intolerant. If I drink raw milk, no problem. You strike me as a raw milk guy. Yeah, we get some raw milk on. It's awesome. Yeah. The only thing that sucks about it is it goes bad really quick.”

“one. Yeah. And every single other bet that could happen for reasons that I do or don't know about. I'm just fucked. Dude, I read a book called The Next Hundred Years. I don't know if I talked about this before by George Friedman. And he wrote it, I think like, I would say the early 2000s, maybe like 2010 or whatever.”

“And now all that stuff's like super illegal in Texas. Like a vape cartridge. I think a vape cartridge is like five years. What they kept on doing was basically adding some new molecule. We're going to change this one bond and this one bond. And it doesn't affect anything to do with how your body interacts with it.”
