[David]

You're such a funny guy.

[Jason]

I know, I know. I'm very funny. Do you feel that funny looking and.

[David]

No. Like, just now, when. When this guy came in.

[Jason]

Yeah. What was he laughing at? What did I do?

[David]

Yeah, you looked at me like, why is he laughing? He just thinks you're. You were just being awkward.

[Jason]

What did I do? I made a joke.

[David]

That was. That was good. But you walked in, like.

[Natalie]

Tell me.

[Jason]

Exactly what I did.

[David]

So there's this guy here.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

That we're hanging out with, just, like, a friend from another country. And he was really excited to, like, meet Jason, meet all of us. Okay.

[Jason]

Okay.

[David]

And Jason just kind of, like, walked in, like, on guard, and I think he, like, thought it was funny because you just, like, seemed very, like, almost like. Yeah. Tense. Like something, like, really serious just happened out by the car. It's just like. It's. It's. It's very. Because, like, I'm looking at it from, like, this guy knows, like, a specific version of you too, right?

[Jason]

I didn't know if he knows me. He's from Sweden.

[David]

He's met before.

[Jason]

No, I know he's met me, but, I mean, I don't know. I didn't talk to him or anything.

[David]

But it's very funny because I don't.

[Jason]

Assume that people know me when I walk in.

[David]

But regardless, you were just, like, very, like.

[Jason]

Like, tell me how I should have came in. What's up, guys? Something like that.

[David]

You're just cold.

[Jason]

Really?

[David]

Ilya did the same thing. It was really weird, but I think.

[Jason]

Really.

[David]

But it was really fun. And then he was. I think he was just laughing because he was just like, this. Jason's, like, really funny. It was, like, really awkward.

[Natalie]

Well, I think that happens a lot of times. People come over here expecting, like, things to be, like, crazy and chaotic, and it's like the candles are lit, the music is playing, everyone's sitting peacefully on the couch. You know, it's like.

[Jason]

Right.

[Natalie]

Not what you would expect, right?

[Jason]

Yeah, no, that's not what I'm saying.

[David]

That's not what I'm saying. I'm not saying that he's going to fucking. That someone's going to walk in here. There's going to be a sledding hill, Bill. And we're all sledding. I'm. This is like. This is like Minimal, like, human interaction level.

[Jason]

I'm also. I'm also never sure what the mood is in here too. So I do come in on guard. Like, I don't know what the mood's going to be. There could be like Crisis 7 going on in here. Like, David forgot to post his brand deal. You know what I mean? It could be like, very. So I come in kind of like a beaten stepchild, but if, you know. So I'm like, okay, we got to do the podcast. I could walk in here and you could be like, fuck the podcast. Today I'm doing it. And so then I'm just kind of like walking in.

[David]

But if you always walk in, like, let's go.

[Jason]

Okay.

[David]

I don't think it's going to hurt.

[Jason]

Right. Yeah, it has in the past. Shut the up, Jason. I've gotten that. But that's okay. I mean, you're right. You're right. I should. I should I. I wish I was a little lighter. I'm just not light these days. I'm working.

[David]

That's okay. I didn't mean to call you out or anything.

[Jason]

No, it's good.

[Natalie]

That was your only intention.

[Jason]

You know, I wanted to come.

[David]

I didn't mean to call you out when I was calling you out.

[Jason]

I nailed that joke for his vlo.

[David]

No, you crushed the joke.

[Jason]

Yeah, I got a good joke.

[David]

I was worried.

[Jason]

I said, you can't shoot me in the back, but. Because I just had back surgery and then I said, if you want, you can shoot me in the nuts.

[David]

Yeah, it was really funny. And I was shocked that was coming because I was like, oh, Jason's not in a silly, goofy mood.

[Jason]

I got it in the chamber, my man. I'm like. I was feeling everybody out. And also when I see kids, I'm. I do have a thing about kids. Like, we were in Pasadena and like these, like, people walked by and started giggling at me. And then I was like, oh, fuck, I hate when teens giggle at me. You know? Like, that's like.

[David]

But you don't know that's anybody.

[Jason]

Yeah, right.

[David]

Like, Like, I've seen tiktoks of that. Like when, like a group of, like, young kids is giggling.

[Jason]

That is true.

[David]

It's like kind of. It hurts, like, fucking really hurtful. I mean, it's like, that's the scariest when you have like a group of 14 year olds. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, he was like. He was like, okay, yeah, basically who the kid came by.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Who hit 1.8 million likes. Right. So. So basically this Kid came by who. We met him in Sweden and he said, can you come? Can I come visit you in la? If I hit a million likes, I was like, sure. And he hit 1.8 million likes and he came by today. And yeah, he's really fun. Really. He's a really motivated guy. He really wants to make videos. He's making. Doesn't want to. He makes a ton of videos and is like, reminds me of. Of me when I was 18.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Like, like, so, so wide eyed. Like, like one of us asked like, why do you want to move out to la? And he's just like, he couldn that question. He was like, what are you talking about? All the content here. Which is like, so true. So true. But it's just like, I'm just so, like.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Different about it because I've been here for 10 years. Yeah.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

But like, it was very. It was very refreshing to see somebody, like, so excited and.

[Natalie]

Yeah. To have that, like, hunger.

[David]

Yeah.

[Jason]

So that I got that hunger.

[David]

That was really cool. Yeah. But he also had a paintball gun here because he's basically came by shooting one. No, no, he came by to make like a vlog. Like a David Dobrik vlog. Yeah. And yeah. He was like, can you shoot me? And I'm like, I don't know. You're 16.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Like, if your mom was here, like, that's fine. But I felt weird about shooting him.

[Jason]

So no paintballs.

[David]

No paintball.

[Jason]

And then when you shot Natalie instead.

[David]

Yeah. And then when you walked in. Yeah.

[Jason]

I thought I was gonna get it.

[David]

Yeah. When you walked in, he goes, oh, should I shoot him?

[Jason]

And I was, oh, my God, no.

[David]

Like, he wasn't gonna shoot you without asking, but like, he's. And I was like, don't even ask him. Cause you're gonna freak him out. But then I saw you made eye contact with the gun right when you walked in.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And I was like, great. Jason's gonna be. And I know that's what kind of led you into this. Like, what's going on in here? Into the slippery slope of, like, awkwardness.

[Jason]

I've been so tired. I didn't come to Hot Tub Saturday night. I just passed out.

[David]

Oh, we didn't do Hot Tub Saturday night.

[Jason]

You didn't. Oh, thank God I didn't come.

[David]

So we had.

[Jason]

Did you watch the Super Bowl?

[David]

We watched the Super Bowl Saturday. What happened? James came by. James Franco?

[Jason]

Oh, hell yeah.

[David]

And Jonah.

[Jason]

How was that?

[David]

They were barbecuing. It was really fun. We played some pickleball yeah.

[Jason]

What did you get out of the day? What's the takeaway?

[David]

Um, nothing. Was just vibes. We're just vibing. It's really funny, the video with John. People, like, really love John and James. When James wakes up John. I think it's one of my, like, favorite videos. There was a comment on there that made me feel really good. There was somebody's, like, props to David for, like. Because basically what I was saying is, like, you could see that James didn't really understand what the bit was right when I first pitched it. Right. But then when you, like, start talking to John, you're like, oh, the bit's just, like, literally here.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Like, it's just interacting with John. Like, there's the funny.

[Jason]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[David]

And it worked out perfectly.

[Jason]

He was.

[David]

So John was woken up. My Filipino roommate sleeping, woken up with James Franco. Had to name five movies for $1,000. Couldn't do it. So we cut it back to three. Finally got it. After naming some crazy movie titles that I've never heard, like Taxi, Goblin, the Honey.

[Natalie]

Honey Goblin.

[David]

Honey Goblin. It was really, really incredible. You couldn't have scripted that better. So I was really happy that worked out. And then, yeah, we all hung out, and then Natalie for the first time, and Ilya wanted to hang out Saturday night. They were, like, begging me. They're like, whoa. They're like, let's go to in and out. Whoa.

[Natalie]

And I was like, a Saturday night. We didn't really have any plans. We had gone out already on Friday night. So I was like, okay, we're gonna all like. I love to, like, hang out on the couch, watch a movie, or if we don't watch a movie, just to, like, talk.

[Jason]

Sure.

[Natalie]

Hang out.

[Jason]

Yeah, that's fun too. I asked you to do something too.

[Natalie]

And David was on the mood.

[Jason]

What kind of mood was he in?

[Natalie]

He was in the you don't really want to hang out with me do. Like, you don't actually want to hang out. Like, trying to bait me into saying I don't want to hang out with him so that he could go to hell.

[David]

Actually, I kind of didn't say something like that. Yeah, I was shocked that Nelly wanted to hang because she's never just like. She's always like, I'm just gonna go light some candles and smoke weed at home. That's like. That's usually the mood she's in. So I was shocked, but I was just like, I really wanted to watch a movie, but not in a group setting. Oh, have you ever felt that.

[Jason]

No. I don't like to watch movies alone.

[David]

Oh. For some reason, I didn't want to, like, go through the process of I.

[Jason]

Especially picking the movie.

[David]

Yeah. And with my friends, I feel, like, a crazy level of pressure.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

When watching films. And I. And it's to the point where I don't even enjoy it.

[Natalie]

Well, you could have just let me pick it.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

But then I, like, wouldn't have enjoyed it. You would have picked, like, Zootopia or, like, Emperor's New Groove.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[Jason]

When you pick a movie around here that is tough.

[David]

It's tough. And, like, I am, like. I am very, like, the Great Dictator around here when there's a movie playing that I like.

[Jason]

Sure.

[David]

Like, if anybody fucking has to pee more than once or, like, no more importantly, if anybody's on their phone, it's like, it ruins the experience.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

And Alex will fall asleep. And I just, like, wasn't in the mood for, like, wow. And that. Oh, this is what happened. I was like, do you really want to watch a movie now? He's like, well, I don't know if I like, we'll stay for the whole movie. And I'm like, what is this? Fuck this. So I went upstairs, I watched the movie Nuremberg.

[Jason]

Oh, I want to watch that.

[David]

Have you watched it?

[Natalie]

No.

[David]

You watched? Did you finish?

[Natalie]

No.

[David]

What?

[Natalie]

I fell asleep.

[Jason]

Fucking watch that. Saturday night.

[David]

That's fucking bullshit.

[Natalie]

It was so good.

[David]

And you were texting me and you were on Instagram during it. How do you do that? How do you do that?

[Natalie]

I had to be, like, stimulated in more ways.

[David]

No, that's a movie, like, have to pay attention to.

[Natalie]

No, I was paying attention. I was paying attention. I was locked in.

[David]

Nuremberg is about the trials of Nuremberg. Yeah.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Which is when the. When the Nazis. When Germany officially lost the war. War In World War II, basically, the US and the other allied countries decided that it would be appropriate to try them.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And have, like, a international. First international trial. Yeah. Really. To see if these people were guilty. Even though they were. You know, obviously everyone just wanted them shot dead. But. Yeah. So it's like. It just goes. It's Rami Malek and Russell Crowe.

[Jason]

Okay.

[David]

It's really.

[Jason]

Are they Germans or are they Americans?

[David]

Russell. Russell Crowe is the. Is Hitler's second. Oh, second command. Yeah. Wasn't it good?

[Natalie]

It's really good.

[David]

What'd you get to the trial?

[Natalie]

Yeah, yeah.

[David]

Did you get to. When they played the video?

[Natalie]

Yeah, yeah.

[David]

And that. Crazy.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

They played a video of, like, everything that happened, like, with the Nazis. It's really crazy. And like the entire movie sort of, it's really. I'm not spoiling anything, but like the entire movie is like, it's pretty lighthearted.

[Natalie]

Right?

[David]

Like in terms of Nazi movies. Yeah. Because Rami Malek is like a doctor who like comes in and investigates. His whole thing is he has to come and talk to these 20 Nazi high ranking officials and make sure they don't kill themselves so they stand for trial. But like, Rami's really friendly with these guys and the whole point of it is this, this high, commanding Nazi guy is a charming guy.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And like, that's how he got into such a position of power because he charms everybody. Right. And like you feel that the first hour of the movie.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

You're like, Rami and him are like friends. And like. And then it kind of like really turns and then Rami's like, fuck. Like, Rami was basically like swept under his spell.

[Jason]

Really?

[David]

Not really because he was aware that he was being swept under a spell. But like, he, he's like. Yeah. I mean he's, he's a charming guy. You're gonna lose to him in court because he's like. Because he just knows his way around, like, talking. But it's really interesting, really interesting movie.

[Jason]

What's your origin story? What's your like, core story?

[David]

Yeah. Or like, what's a moment where I like, Where I was like having like my movie moment where I was like, I'm going to make this work. And I've talked about this in my personal life. I don't know if I've talked about it here. But this song by BB Rexa. Okay, this song, and I'm not exaggerating at all. So there's a moment in here. Listen, That part. Dead ass.

[Jason]

David, you're only getting 20,000 views. I can do it.

[David]

No. When did this come out? I'm being completely dead.

[Jason]

You're filming Zane, you're filming Heath.

[David]

No, no, no.

[Jason]

I'm being scarfing down a burrito.

[David]

I'm being completely dead ass. When I was in Vernon Hills and that song came out and it was just on the radio, I think it was like right about the time we graduated, it was like the moment I was thinking about, like moving to LA and like really making something of myself. I'm not kidding you. When this song would come on or I'd put it on, I was in tears singing it. I mean, I'm being completely dead ass. It's like it's a shot in the dark room and I think that's like my one moment that I'm. Every time that song comes out, I'm like, damn. I was in my fucking Corolla, like blasting this song. Just like really hoping that like I can make something work.

[Jason]

What was the drive out like?

[David]

Drive from la? Yeah, from Chicago to la. I don't know, the whole drive, it was like it was two. Two of us. And we were going to. Yeah, we were going to our part. We didn't even have a place to live yet, I don't think.

[Jason]

Switch. Switch driving.

[David]

We switched driving and we made it out in like, I think like 34 hours.

[Jason]

Okay.

[David]

And it was incredible. It was like really cold. And like there was a moment where we were like passing through a cold state. I have no idea where it was, but we were like up in the mountains. You couldn't see anything. All the trucks were pulled over. Cause they couldn't drive anymore. It was a blizzard and it was just. And I was like, oh my God. I was just like eating it up. Because I was like, this is it. Like, this is. This is the adversity. I'm gonna get to la. That was the best. So we battled through that and then.

[Jason]

Yeah, the highest I ever was was I got flown here to do a TV show. And I got here, they had. They rented a car for me. I was gonna be here for like four months to be on A TV show. And they got me a Mustang.

[David]

Oh, wow.

[Jason]

And I was like, I'd never been to LA before, and I was like, there was a Mustang waiting for me.

[David]

I mean, that is crazy.

[Jason]

Not like a crazy car, but still a convertible.

[David]

Wait, how old were you when you moved?

[Jason]

I was like, probably 28. Wow. And. And then I got on the convertible and I turned it on and it was fucking midnight. Midnight Rambler by the Stones. It was just on the radar.

[David]

How does that go?

[Jason]

I'm talking about the Midnight Rambler. The one you never seen before. You talk about the Midn Gambler. And then I was just driving up the coast.

[David]

Very different.

[Jason]

It was insane. I. I was so high.

[David]

Oh.

[Jason]

I'd never been so that was actually high in my life.

[David]

Wait, what was the gig? Like a show?

[Jason]

Yeah, it was like a sketch show for VH1. And do you remember VH1?

[David]

Yeah, of course.

[Jason]

And. And then that was a. And then I lived in the Oakwood dude.

[David]

Isn't that crazy that. Have I seen you on it?

[Jason]

I'm sure you haven't seen the show. If you, like, go on YouTube, you can see it. I, like, play, like, John Lennon. I play like. It was a rock sketch show, so it's all different rock stars. I play Liam Gallagher.

[David]

Why?

[Jason]

Yeah, I play Jim Morrison. It was all.

[David]

You play them.

[Jason]

So it's like imagine like a sketch show on VH, but only music sketches.

[David]

And it would go on TV.

[Jason]

Yeah, yeah. And it was like 10 episodes.

[David]

How much you get paid?

[Jason]

I want to say I got like 8,000 an episode. Something like that.

[Natalie]

Wow.

[David]

Damn. That's crazy.

[Jason]

Yeah, it was a huge amount of money.

[David]

But then, yeah, at the time. That's fucking insane.

[Jason]

And it was with all really good comedians.

[David]

Who was on the show?

[Jason]

Huh?

[David]

Who was on the show with you?

[Jason]

Like, people like, you won't know them.

[David]

Like niche comedians.

[Jason]

Yeah, like Jim Gaffigan. No, I know John Wall. Michael Ian Black. Steve Carell's wife was on there. Nancy Walls.

[David]

Oh, wow.

[Jason]

It was. They were all really good.

[David]

Steve Carell's wife is a comedian?

[Jason]

Yeah, she was in A Second City. She was like, been on the Office and stuff.

[David]

Oh, really?

[Jason]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[David]

Oh, that's sick.

[Jason]

Yeah, it was fun. Did you watch the Super Bowl?

[David]

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Bro, why are you pivoting from this fucking place?

[Jason]

I don't know. I have topics.

[David]

Well, you're in the middle of a topic, you fucking dumbass.

[Jason]

Abe Bad Bunny, huh?

[David]

Okay, you really want to pivot? Do you not want to talk about it?

[Jason]

No, I'll talk about it. Keep going.

[David]

Well, I'm just curious.

[Jason]

I have so much to say. We don't see each other.

[David]

But you were on. You were on VH1.

[Jason]

Yeah, I was. I was a cast member. I had a bit that I would do in stand up. I would come out as a Jim Morrison lounge singer. And this woman saw it and she was like, it was a bit that always worked. It was called the Shaman. And she saw it and she was like, that's the show. So she took. She came and filmed me and then she went and pitched it and they were like. She's like, it's gonna be like this. And then they were like, oh. And it sold the whole show.

[David]

So they made a new show based. Wait, where. Where did she see the bit of yours?

[Jason]

Just that. Catch a Rising Star. Just at the club one night. Oh, I was like, young.

[David]

You were doing a stand up bit on stage.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And she filmed it.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And she pitched a show around that.

[Jason]

She pitched a show around this one sketch in Boston, in New York.

[David]

Dude, you have like, such a fucking.

[Natalie]

Like, you know, so much lore behind you.

[Jason]

I know.

[David]

And also just like such a classic.

[Jason]

Like, that's what happens when you don't quit, man. If you just keep going. That's where I'm at right now. I'm just kind of like, I know something's going to happen, but you know what I mean? Like, that is. That is the way you have to be. I just know. I just know something's going to happen.

[David]

No, some of my favorite stories are people like, Morgan Freeman.

[Jason]

Unbelievable. Or like, when did he make it? Like 60?

[David]

Yeah. Like, it's like so crazy. Like, like, like a lot of times I'll think to myself, I'm like, I had fun. And I'm like, it's time to like, go start a family. But then I'll think about something like Morgan Freeman. It's like, I could be doing something completely different. Like, Debby Ryan is a good example, right? Debbie Ryan.

[Jason]

Debby Ryan.

[Natalie]

What about the Disney star?

[David]

No. Who's the girl from Good Luck Charlie? Sorry? Good Luck Charlie. The star of it.

[Natalie]

I never watched Good Luck Charlie.

[David]

Okay, well, anyway, she now works for NASA.

[Jason]

Oh, that's not Debbie Ryan.

[David]

No, not, not, not Debbie Ryan. Yeah. But she has a completely different, sure, like, job, and I think it's so cool.

[Jason]

Would you do that?

[David]

No, no, no. I would never work for fucking NASA. I'd never squander my genius and building spaceships no, no. But I'm just saying, like, there's always, like, things I don't know. For me, it's.

[Natalie]

It's never over.

[Jason]

It's never over. Especially now. I've been watching all these, like, over 40 YouTubers, and I'm like, my God, this is incredible. They're all having, like, second lives. It's crazy.

[David]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Jason]

What will you be excited about when you're 50?

[David]

I have no idea. I mean, just listening to these podcasts, like, obviously, psychologically, there's something wrong with me. I change my mind. I change my mind every week. So it's just like.

[Natalie]

You just changed your mind right now. You should have seen him yesterday. He's doing it again today. It's leaking over into today. But everything I did yesterday was an issue. I would breathe. There was a problem. I took the wrong step. Granted, he asked me to hang out. He dragged me along his activities that I did not agree to.

[David]

Yeah. So we went out.

[Jason]

Where'd you go?

[David]

We went to an open house.

[Jason]

Fun. You went to an open Super David Sunday thing?

[David]

No. Really? Yeah. And then we were gonna go to two super bowl parties.

[Jason]

Okay.

[David]

Before the halftime show. Cause I wanted to be back here watching Bad Bunny. I'd be comfortable at home.

[Natalie]

And I had already made plans, like, with our friends to be sitting on the couch. I invited people over to barbecue. Like, I had a whole plan.

[Jason]

Here, Here or your house?

[Natalie]

At David's house.

[Jason]

At David's house, yeah.

[David]

Oh.

[Natalie]

But that was my plan. David's like, do you wanna do this? And I was like, okay, I'm gonna be a good friend. I'm gonna go hang out with him.

[David]

She was just, like, being so weird. She was like. So it first started with, like, we met. Like, somebody wanted to take a picture with me at the open house. And I was like, now I can take the picture. And then the way she. The way she got out of the.

[Natalie]

Ferrari was parked on a hillside. I'm wearing heels. The car is 2 inches off the ground. I was struggling to get out.

[David]

They weren't really heels. They were like flip flop heels. Like a little bit of a heel. Like a. Like a Vegas beach club heel. But the way she got out of the car after I took the picture, I was like, natalie, the way you just got out of the car gave me the biggest dick in my entire life. It was like. I don't know. I can't explain it. I can't. I can't say, but it's crazy.

[Jason]

I know exactly what you mean. But then Also, it's hard to get out of the Ferrari on a hill.

[Natalie]

I could only open the door three inches because the way that he parked next to the car.

[David]

Yeah. It wasn't even the hillside. It was like the door could open, but it was just like. And like me and. Me and the girl and this girl who's like, can you take a picture of us? Who's asking? Natalie. Me and that girl are just staring at Natalie get out of the car. And it's like an awkward 12 seconds of her just like. And I'm like, I don't know why. I don't know why.

[Jason]

I see a theme here. It's when someone new is around, he's uncomfortable. Like, with the kid. 16 year old. That is interesting that it's someone new around. It's like, you're nervous that this person is here. So you're like, fucking Natalie. Come on. But it's you that's. That's, like, nervous about it.

[Natalie]

Oh, he's the biggest. I mean, this is. This is actually tried and true. Not only when. Newcomer.

[David]

That's really interesting. That's definitely true.

[Natalie]

David has to, like. I know. I'm gonna say this is a taboo word on the podcast. David has to fart. It's. Oh, no. Natalie farted, you know, or like something like that.

[David]

What? Hold on, hold on.

[Natalie]

You project your, like, into. Oh, if David wants to eat a giant burrito the size of his. Oh, Natalie's gonna house that burrito because she's so big.

[David]

I've never been like, natalie has to fart when I have to fart. I've never done that.

[Natalie]

Okay, well, you know what?

[David]

I will say we were in the Ferrari yesterday again, driving through. The windows are down.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And I'm like, natalie, did you fart? And she's like, no. And I'm like, dead ass, did you fart? This is a smell like I've Like I've never smelled in my life. And I'm like, nelly, there's for sure something coming out of one of your holes. Like, and you can't lie on dead ass. You can't lie on dead ass.

[Natalie]

And I keep saying, I swear to God, that was.

[David]

And I was like, we're in a convertible. And it's, like, lingering here. I know it's not outside. It's, like, lingering in the car.

[Jason]

I don't.

[David]

And it feels like it's still. Like, the gas line is still open. Like something is still spewing. And she just wouldn't admit to it. So I thought that was Weird. And then another one. We were going to a party, and, like, we were kind of, like, on the edge of the street. There wasn't a sidewalk. And we, like. We finally got to the house, but she didn't know the house was there.

[Natalie]

There was a sidewalk on the other side of the street. And I was like, I'm gonna go to. Let's go on the sidewalk. And. And he's like, so I'm running in my little heels across the street to the sidewalk. And he's like, what are you doing? And I was like.

[David]

Because we were already at the house. Well, then she just had to cross. Once she was on her sidewalk, she then saw that the house was there.

[Natalie]

So I had to come right back.

[Jason]

Come back.

[David]

What are you doing? And, like, cars are driving by, and, like, she's doing, like, this really weird run in her heels.

[Natalie]

Then he starts saying, shit. And then I'm like, oh, my God, I'm being a fucking freak.

[David]

And then I'm like, natalie, are you on drugs today? Like, what's going on? And then I notice that it's like. And then I noticed that it's getting to her, me saying, are you on drugs? Because when you ask. Because Natalie has these. Natalie has these things where, like, she'll be like, hey, like, am I. Like, am I an idiot? She'll ask me that. She'll ask me. She's asking. She's like, am I an idiot? Like, do I not notice?

[Natalie]

Tell me right now.

[David]

Like, am I being, like, really stupid? Like, something going on?

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And, like, normally I'd be like, no, I'm not noticing anything. But, like, this time, I knew it. I saw I was getting under her skin. So I was just like, what happened, dude? Like, I was. I was being such a dick. I was like, you can tell me if something's wrong. Like, genuinely, what's bothering you? Like, did you take anything that's, like, still lingering, but yeah.

[Jason]

No.

[David]

She's being really bizarre.

[Jason]

It's a psycho move to run to the other side of the street.

[Natalie]

I don't know. It was, like, not that crazy. It was your reaction.

[David]

And then we were, like, at the party, and she was kind of, like, staring off into nothing.

[Jason]

It was.

[David]

I was definitely getting, like, the weirdest Natalie.

[Natalie]

Yeah, well, because. Because I'm very much a person that needs to, like, plan in advance for things. And, like, I had fully planned to be sitting on that couch right outside the store and watching the super bowl on my laptop, going, Working on things. Like, that was my plan for the day. And then David was like, oh, we have to go to this open house. And I thought the open house would be down the street, like they normally. This one was 50 minutes away. We were practically in the ocean. It was so far.

[Jason]

On Super Bowl Sunday, too.

[Natalie]

On Super Bowl Sunday.

[Jason]

Bel Air.

[Natalie]

And then we had to go to another party, and then someone else called them, which I love these people. So I was like, okay, yes, we should go say hi. But it ended up being, like, a whole thing. And I was just like, I was just antsy.

[Jason]

Anything interesting at the parties? Like, any good food or anything?

[David]

Food was good. There's a really good barbecue place at 1. What was interesting? Did you eat? Yeah, I ate a lot last night. And then when we got back, Jonah was making burgers on the barbecue on the grill.

[Jason]

Oh, wow.

[David]

Yes. We were eating a lot, and then we watched the Super Bowl.

[Jason]

Yeah, it was so, so shitty.

[Natalie]

Oh, my God.

[David]

Really?

[Jason]

The game, it's just like, I'm not a. I love the. I'm from Boston. So I was like, okay, I'm gonna root for the Patriots. But then you realize quickly, you're like, oh, wait, it's not Tom Brady.

[David]

Well, Natalie owes me $5,000.

[Natalie]

Yeah. This motherfucker.

[Jason]

You bet on the Pats?

[Natalie]

Yes. Halfway through the game.

[David]

Halfway through the game, it was 7x your money. So it was like, Nat, let's put 5 grand each. We'll each make $35,000 if Patriots come back. And they were only down.

[Natalie]

They were down by two touchdowns, and.

[Jason]

There was no nothing, which was, like, not that crazy.

[David]

It's just, like, momentum change needed to happen.

[Jason]

Oh, my God.

[David]

And then we win 35,000. And I was like, nat, you want to go in with me? 5,000.

[Natalie]

Yeah. And we kept. And then we kept our. We realized in, like, the third quarter that we weren't live. Like, we were. We weren't watching it live. We were, like, way behind.

[David]

Yeah, yeah. So, like, when you're on price picks, if you put in, like, a certain. Like, so I bet I put $10,000 in, right. For both me and Natalie.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And then there's a cash out option where it was like, it went down to, like, 8,000 when it wasn't looking good, and then cash out to, like, 4,000. And then it got down to 700 because it was like the price books is basically telling you you're fucked.

[Natalie]

The odds are so bad, but we'll.

[David]

Give you 700 back if you cash out. My price picks was about 20 seconds ahead of the game, so I had $700 to cash out. And then all of a sudden, it went to $5,000 cash out. I'm like, the Patriot. And then I'm like, what just happened? We're watching the tv. We're like, I don't know. And then. And then the Patriots made, like, this beautiful pass and got a touchdown. And I was like, oh, so that's what happened. So we're really delayed. And then I refresh it again, like, 10 minutes later, and it goes from 5,000 to $700 cash out. And I'm like. To the room, I'm like, someone is about to get killed on the Patriots. Like, something just happens. And 15 seconds later, they throw an interception. And everyone's like, stop fucking opening that app. Because the app was ahead of the game, and it was predicting all of the bad and good plays. So, yeah, I was on the phone.

[Jason]

With my mom, and we were watching it together on FaceTime, and she was like, well, you know, Drake may. You know, it's good he's at the Super Bowl. You know, it's his first time.

[David]

You know, maybe.

[Jason]

Maybe he'll be. Maybe he'll get better next year. He'll get back there. Then I said to her, I was like, well, what about Tom? Did Tom lose his first time in the Super Bowl? And she goes. She goes, oh, no, no, no. Not Tom. Not Tom. Tom won the first time.

[David]

Wait, Tom won the first time? The first year he was on the Patriots, he won the Super Bowl?

[Jason]

No, no, no. The first time he went to the super bowl, he won. We were saying, like, going to the super bowl, that in itself is, like, really good experience to, like, maybe you can do it. You know, what it takes.

[David]

Interesting about it is, like, I love watching sports things because I love seeing how excited the people are at the end. Yeah, they. No one seemed excited. Do you see that? Could you tell that?

[Natalie]

Yeah. Like, the post game was, like, really mellow. Yeah, I thought.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

I was shocked. There's, like. No, like, usually there's, like, shots of players on the ground hugging their families, covered by confetti, tears, crying.

[Jason]

I saw some Gatorade.

[David]

There was Gatorade, for sure. But there was, like, even a moment, like, there was Seahawks, right?

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

The Seahawks were being. The quarterback was being interviewed, and he was like. He's like, I wish our offense could have been better. I wouldn't want to talk about that now because we did win the Super Bowl. I thought that was strange. I was like, you just won the greatest championship of all time. I don't know it felt like there was something. I don't know, a lot of these coaches, it almost felt like they won the super bowl, but now they have to go to war somewhere. It was like bittersweet. I don't know. I was getting a really weird pickup on it. I don't know if anybody else got that vibe watching it, but I was.

[Jason]

Confused that might be the coach. Just the way he runs a team. You know what I mean? Like, kind of like you, when something good happens, you're like, well, don't dress.

[David]

Another super bowl next year. Don't get too drunk tonight. Yeah, but super bowl, that's like the end all be all.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

You win that and it's like, I think you should be celebrating.

[Jason]

Did you like Bad Bunny?

[David]

I love Bad Bunny.

[Jason]

Fucking incredible. Yeah. I was shocked at how.

[David]

I wish it was a little longer, but I guess. I guess that's kind of how. Probably the length of all of them. Yeah, Right? I think so.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

No, it was really good.

[Jason]

I thought it was cool that he didn't have to bring out, like, five people like they do.

[David]

I thought. I thought. Amazing. I thought they did a really good. Like, making the set look like Puerto Rico. Yeah. And then seeing the super bowl, like, the shots of him looked so cool, unreal. It was like. Like, when you saw, like, that he was on this set, and then also behind it was, like, the stadium seats towering over, like, all the green greenery of Puerto Rico or whatever, I thought that was really sad.

[Jason]

I was at a bar, and the place went fucking apeshit. People were up dancing, salsa ing.

[Natalie]

Like, really?

[Jason]

It was funny. And it was like, white people, too.

[Natalie]

Wow.

[Jason]

Like, and it was like. It was. It was interesting to hear that kind of music and be taken by that music. And I don't even know what he said. You know what I mean?

[David]

I actually looked it up to what he said.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

I think he said, hate is or love is stronger than hate.

[Jason]

The only thing Timmy pregunta is. They asked me if I have.

[David]

Let me translate. You say it, huh? You say it, I'll translate it.

[Jason]

Okay. Okay. Teame. Brigunta Tango. Mucho novia. Mucho novia. Oy Tango. Auna mafiana.

[David]

Okay, okay.

[Jason]

All right. Okay.

[David]

They asked me if I have. What'd you say?

[Jason]

Mucho novia.

[David]

Do I have a girlfriend? Do I have a girlfriend?

[Jason]

Yes. Yes.

[David]

Very good.

[Jason]

Very good.

[David]

Yeah, Very good.

[Jason]

Oytengo Auna mafano Ultra A pero no Oibora.

[David]

I have an offer for you, but it's not gonna be good.

[Jason]

It's price fix today. I have one. He's basically saying, they asked me if I have a girlfriend. He's like, I got fucking tons of girlfriends.

[David]

Really?

[Jason]

Yeah. He's like, I got this girl. That girl. That girl.

[David]

Ever tell you I was at a party once, I ran into Bad Bunny.

[Jason]

No way.

[David]

Did I ever talk about this on pod?

[Jason]

I don't think so. I think you said asap, not Bad Bunny.

[David]

No, it was a different time. I was at a house party in LA. It was like 3am, like, like 20 people there. I think we were waiting for more people to get there. And I was like, on the dance floor, I was, like, fairly drunk. And Bad Bunny starts playing. Like, the song starts playing.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And then he's just dancing himself and, like, comes over to me and starts dancing and he's like, I wrote this song. It was. It was like, wow. The most cliche. Like, it feels like I'm making it up.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Because he just. He just. Straight up, he's like, I wrote this song for a girl I love, and it didn't work out the way I thought it would. And then it kind of danced away.

[Natalie]

That was it.

[David]

You're kidding. Swear to God. That was it.

[Jason]

You're kidding.

[David]

And I was like, it's a great song.

[Jason]

Did you know who he was?

[David]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jason]

You knew it was his song.

[David]

I didn't know he was there until he was dancing in front of me.

[Jason]

Oh, my God. If you're drunk, that is. That's a crazy drunk moment.

[David]

It's really funny. What the fuck? I don't know exactly what he said. I wonder if I've said this on the podcast before so I can, like, clarify exactly. Cause I was thinking about it as I was watching Super Bowl. I was like, what did he say? But he was saying that he wrote the song about a girl. I don't know what he said after, but it was him coming up, being, like, just immediately telling me what the song was about, which I thought was really interesting. And he was just, like, grooving. It was very much like a. Like a scene out of a movie where celebrities are hanging around. It's very cliche.

[Jason]

If you repeat this to anyone, they're not going to believe you. That's the famous Bill Murray thing. Bill Murray will just walk up to people.

[David]

No one will ever believe you.

[Jason]

No one will believe you. Take someone. Take a French fry from somebody.

[David]

Dude, Ellie's so crazy.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Like, just me, like, running into people. So wild. Dude, I've been begging my friends to watch Hidden Figures. And then we went to the bar the other day and I was like, that's the woman that works at NASA from Hidden Figures. Yeah, I think Janae Monae. She's sitting on Janelle. Janelle.

[Natalie]

Janelle Monae. Yeah.

[David]

It's just like, kind of really crazy. Like, the people you run to really, really doesn't make any sense.

[Jason]

You see that super bowl shot of, like, 40 celebrities all walking up together? It's like a TikTok. It's like one minute long. It's like Leo. Kevin Costner, David Blaine, Toby Maguire, Lucas Haas.

[David]

What? David Blaine.

[Jason]

It wasn't David Blaine. Logan. Like, it's a cr. I don't know. They must. Jamie Foxx. They just dropped them all off. And so all these celebs had to walk together and you were just like, what the fuck?

[David]

Oh, that's really funny.

[Jason]

That's really fun.

[David]

That's really funny.

[Jason]

Hey, this woman wrote into the show. She said, pass this message on to David. All right, Dave, I just tried to shower with seven towels, and I have a proposal for you. You need to invest in a really nice terry cloth robe.

[David]

Wow. Okay, so the last podcast, I talked about how I use seven showers a day to shower, which is not true. I use, like, two, I use, like, four, and throughout a day, five terry cloth. Oh, that's like a towel.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[Natalie]

Towel.

[Jason]

She says a niche robe is 10 times better than 10 towels.

[Natalie]

A nice robe.

[David]

A niche robe.

[Jason]

I have the word niche on my brain.

[David]

I'm not a robe guy trying to pick my niche. I'm a pervert.

[Natalie]

Yeah, I could see that.

[Jason]

You're not a robe guy.

[David]

No. Yeah, I guess he's wrong.

[Jason]

Seven towels is way better than one robe.

[David]

100%. And I don't like robes because, like, your penis kind of just, like, comes out of them.

[Jason]

You get a good tie there on a good terry cloth robe.

[David]

No, but I'm saying, like, if you lay down, it just. It splits there.

[Natalie]

It's also laying down what?

[David]

It's.

[Natalie]

I don't know.

[David]

No, no, no.

[Jason]

I'm saying she's on drugs.

[David]

Yeah, I know. She's being really weird right now. Is there anything that you want to talk to us about?

[Jason]

Do you watch the commercials?

[Natalie]

I was watching the commercials, but I did not see anything that really stood.

[Jason]

Out to me was funny.

[David]

I don't think we were. Oh, Meal Diamond.

[Jason]

Yeah. Was that Andy Samberg?

[David]

Yeah, Andy Samberg.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Yeah, I thought that was good.

[Jason]

Ben Affleck commercial. Dunkin Donuts was good.

[David]

Ben Affleck, another Dunkin Donuts.

[Jason]

So good, bro.

[David]

He's. How much is he being paid for this?

[Natalie]

I mean, probably so far.

[David]

It's got to be like, 5 million, right? least.

[Natalie]

At least.

[Jason]

I mean, it's funny when you see these celebs come out for the Super Bowl. Like, Jennifer Aniston was in it.

[Natalie]

Oh, I know.

[Jason]

Fucking Urkel was in it. Matt LeBlanc was just in the back.

[David]

That's amazing.

[Jason]

It's kind of crazy.

[David]

Yeah, but, like, Ben Affleck is like, what? How many Super Bowls has he done this? Like, eight. Oh, this is only the third.

[Natalie]

I think so.

[Jason]

I think he's done it that much, but yeah.

[David]

What?

[Jason]

Maybe three?

[David]

He's like the Dunkin Donuts guy.

[Jason]

Oh, yeah. I mean, it was a great commercial. I love the commercial.

[David]

So good.

[Jason]

I like him better than the game.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

Yeah.

[Jason]

The Xfinity one was so funny with Jurassic Park.

[David]

What is it?

[Jason]

It's like a clip from Jurassic park, and it's like Sam Jackson's like, the. You know, oh, Jurassic park is shut down. We can't connect to the server. And then it's just like an Xfinity guy's like, oh, I got it.

[David]

That was funny. Really funny.

[Jason]

What else was good? Mr. Beast at a commercial.

[David]

Yeah, I saw that.

[Natalie]

Nobody's solved his million dollar puzzle yet.

[David]

Really?

[Jason]

Yeah, really.

[David]

He's giving away a million dollars. You had to scan a QR code? I tried scanning the QR code. I wasn't fast enough, so I was already out of the race. Quickly.

[Natalie]

Well, you can just go to the website.

[Jason]

Wait, how does it work?

[David]

I don't know. You have to, like, watch videos, and there's, like, clues.

[Natalie]

There's different, like, puzzles. There's clues that are, like, that were in the commercial that are also in the other content that he's been making. And, like, there's a series of puzzles you have to solve in order to unlock and win the million bucks.

[David]

So it's the first one to solve the puzzle, or it's still like a random generator once you get to the end?

[Natalie]

No, it's the first person to solve it.

[Jason]

Really?

[David]

That's like, national treasure. And you win a million dollars.

[Natalie]

That's the way it's been. Yeah. Posed.

[Jason]

Remember your puzzle?

[David]

Mm. By. Yeah, my QR code puzzle.

[Jason]

I paid someone to do mine.

[David]

How much you win?

[Jason]

I didn't win. I think. I think everyone.

[David]

Wait. 10 bucks.

[Jason]

I paid, like, a puzzle person to do it, and she was not happy.

[David]

Because it was difficult.

[Jason]

She was just kind of like, here, wait.

[David]

What but you paid her to do it.

[Jason]

I did pay her.

[David]

So why was she mad?

[Jason]

I think she just maybe didn't love her life putting together puzzles.

[David]

All right, what were you gonna say?

[Jason]

Oh, well, I was just walking home yesterday and I had like, a really, like, out of body experience. One of those postmates was knocked over. Those postmate robots.

[David]

Oh, shit.

[Jason]

And he was like, on the side of the road and he was tipped over.

[David]

Little wall E robots.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Yeah.

[Jason]

And his name was Agnew.

[David]

And then.

[Jason]

And then right next, like, down the street was another robot and he was blinking and he was like, looking at his friend who has tipped over.

[David]

He was looking at Agnu?

[Jason]

Yeah. And he was like. Like he looked. He looked like he was like, upset that his buddy was. I know, I'm like, making this up.

[David]

No. Was he upset or was he laughing at Agnu?

[Jason]

No, he looked really concerned. Like Agnu was tipped over.

[David]

Did you help him up?

[Jason]

So then. Yeah. So Naveen tries to pick him up and it's too heavy. And she's like, you shouldn't do this. You're gonna throw your back out. And I was like, no, no, no. We gotta get it. We gotta try. So I pick him up. It's really heavy. I get him up and he like, goes black. And then all of a sudden he just goes, thank you.

[David]

On the screen.

[Jason]

Yeah, like that.

[David]

So funny.

[Jason]

And I was like. And then I looked at down at the other postmate and he starts blinking.

[David]

Thank you for helping my friend.

[Natalie]

Wait, that's crazy.

[David]

I've heard some things about those robots. That there are people controlling them in a different country.

[Natalie]

I've heard that too.

[Jason]

Yeah. There's one. There's one person controlling every robot.

[David]

Is that true?

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

In a different country.

[Jason]

Yeah. Or, yeah. Or maybe here.

[David]

I don't know. I mean, is that fucking crazy? There's a human being, like, in fucking somewhere in Asia controlling these countries.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Or controlling these.

[Jason]

Just driving them around.

[David]

Controlling these drones.

[Jason]

Yeah. Have you ever gotten one and had to take the photo down?

[David]

No. I can't imagine. I do not have the patience to watch my drone wobble through the streets.

[Jason]

Well, you don't have to watch him. He just shows up.

[David]

No, but I'm looking at the app.

[Jason]

Oh, oh, oh.

[David]

Like, dude, when I get a motorcyclist, I am like, God bless America. This guy's gonna get two seconds. But if I got a wally that I knew had to cross the street by himself, I'd be like, I'm. I should honestly cook something at my own House. Did you see this new thing? I don't know how much I believe this because I. I genuinely think it's like a joke. Yeah. But. So there's this new AI software that you could plug it onto your computer and you could like connect it to your email.

[Jason]

Claude.

[David]

Huh?

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

Anyway, Mobot. I don't know. Something like that.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

But you can connect it to different parts. Anything on your computer.

[Jason]

Yep.

[David]

And it will do.

[Jason]

Yep.

[David]

So your taxes, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And if you give it. If you give it like access to your safari or your Internet, it's this, this is what they're saying has happened, that there has become basically a Reddit.

[Jason]

Yep.

[David]

Have you seen this? A Reddit just for AI robots.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[Jason]

Yep.

[David]

So like only the. So now instead of it saying are you a human? It says are you a robot? And that's the only way you have access to it is if you're AI. So only AIs can use it to talk to each other and to give each other tips. And like the AI prompts will be like, my human's so stupid. He just asked me for. It all seems like a joke.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And it's written like a joke. And I'm wondering if it's written like a joke because the AI robots are writing it as a joke.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Or if it's just written by humans prompting AI robots to be funny. I find that really interesting.

[Jason]

Do you see Rent to human AI?

[David]

Rent a. What's that?

[Jason]

It's you can. Robots can hire you to do tasks that they can't do. So like, you'll though. You know, they needed someone to like hold a sign in Times Square and it's like 100 bucks. And the girl got paid 100 bucks. And I went on there yesterday just to look for work.

[David]

That's fucking amazing.

[Jason]

It's like a YouTube video and. But it was hard to find anything that I could do in la.

[David]

And you get paid out?

[Jason]

I guess. I. I haven't been paid yet. I haven't gotten the job yet. I'm hoping.

[Natalie]

What are like some options that were available?

[Jason]

One was like, listen to a podcast and write a tweet. One was run errands in San Francisco. A lot of them were in San Francisco.

[David]

I mean, this is what I. This is what I. This is what I said before about how AI is going to take over. Right. It's like, yeah. Once AI starts, gets. Gets intelligent enough to ask humans to do all the little things.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And like AI is like, bring this part of this bomb Here. Or bring the red wires here, bring this copper here, bring this alkaline battery here, and then soon you'll have 300 people constructing a nuclear bomb or some sort of new explosive that AI will have control of because they had humans built it from.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

Unknowingly.

[Jason]

Remember when we were like, kind of like you started doing chatgpt like, six months ago, and there was, like, talking to you and stuff, and you were saying, like, it's gonna go really fast. It's like, it's like here, like, already, like, the white collar jobs are, like, going away. Like, there's so many jobs that are getting cut right now.

[David]

Really? Because of AI?

[Jason]

Yeah. I mean, doctors. I mean, like, lawyers.

[David]

I got interviewed by this woman in Dubai, and she was like. She was like, asking me how I use AI.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

And, like, I was talking to her about Microsoft Copilot, like, how I like using the features for, like, to, like, talk to when I'm bored. Or like, the FaceTime feature when, like, I'm like, like, trying to interior decorate and stuff like that. And she's like, no, no, but how do you use it for work? And I was like. And I was like, well, I just use it for fun. I have a good time. She was, like, baffled. It was really funny. She was like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You only use AI for fun?

[Jason]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[David]

It was a really funny. I was like, I guess I never really thought about it.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[David]

I don't use AI. Like, I'm not in the office, right. So I'm not actually. Like, Ilya and Natalie use it, like, to actually help them. I'm using it to be like, dude, so if a girl likes me and she lives here, is it worth me flying? I'm using it for advice and shit. So it's really interesting how there's so many different use cases for it and I'm completely not aware of the ones. That's the legitimate one.

[Jason]

Today, Naveen's AI goes, when you make the thumbnail, Jason's gonna want to make you put some writing on it but talk him out of it.

[David]

No, I didn't say that.

[Jason]

Yeah, really? And she was like, oh, yeah, he will do that. She was like, oh, my God. It's even like telling me how to handle you. It was crazy.

[David]

I mean, I just can't wait till you can have an AI girlfriend.

[Jason]

You can. There's a cafe in New York opening up.

[David]

I mean, like a real thing. Like a real human being, robot, everything.

[Jason]

Two years. One year.

[David]

No, bro. It's so Far from that.

[Jason]

No.

[Natalie]

Really? You think we're so far from it.

[Jason]

No, I don't think so. It was literally at ces.

[David]

Yeah, but those are like sex dolls plugged into fucking circuits. I'm saying like a real. Like you can't differentiate. Are you a human? Are you, are you a droid or are you like. I'm talking like the real deal.

[Jason]

They say this Optimus 3 from Tesla is going to be like, unreal.

[David]

Really?

[Jason]

Yeah. Like, like literally, like, go, dig me a hole. Like, go.

[David]

It's not even that crazy.

[Jason]

Like, go, go pick up the pickleball court. Put everything away, move that chair like crazy.

[David]

If I had, if I had an AI girlfriend, would you guys think that's weird? If she was like. If like, imagine it was like Natalie, like full body.

[Jason]

Yeah, looks like Natalie. That'd be weird.

[David]

Definitely. But like, you can. So funny. You can choose it. You could choose it to do anything. Yeah, sorry.

[Jason]

Not.

[David]

You could choose. You could choose it to. You can't tell the difference between a human and it. Yeah. Would you find that to be bizarre or would you just be like, that's kind of the world we're in. I don't feel like. I don't feel like I need another human.

[Jason]

Uh huh. Then what do you need the girlfriend for?

[David]

I feel like I need a companion, but I don't feel like I need a human element. I almost feel like if the AI is. If. I'm not saying currently, right, but I'm saying, like, if it gets to a point in 10, 15 years where I can't tell the difference. If I can't tell the difference between a human and a robot, I don't.

[Jason]

You know, Brooks AI. Huh? Brooks AI. She's a robot. No one told you.

[David]

If I can't tell the difference, I don't actually need to. I don't actually need to.

[Natalie]

If there's no difference, then yeah, then there's no difference, you know? But there obviously has to be. There's got to be some.

[David]

No, there's no difference. It's like, it's the same argument as if you're. Do you care if your girlfriend does onlyfans? Like, it's like that.

[Jason]

I don't feel like that's same at all, really.

[David]

Like, I still feel like it's like, it's just like a thing you have to get over in your head. Like you either care or you don't. And like, I don't care if my girlfriend is an AI robot, but there.

[Natalie]

Must be something to her that's like giving away the fact that she's AI.

[David]

No, it's not. The only thing is that she's an AI robot, as people know, the stigma. Oh, you couldn't find a real person. You have an AI robot. That is the only fucking difference. Okay? That's the only difference. Now does that bother you?

[Natalie]

I mean, I think it like, yes, it does.

[David]

Okay, so you can't get over the Sigma. I don't, I don't.

[Jason]

It doesn't bother me, Dave. You be you.

[David]

I don't think it bothers me either. I'm just like. If it's the same thing, it's like.

[Natalie]

Just like, it doesn't bother me. It's just like, it just, it's, it bothers me that, that is, that will eventually, if you're accepting of it, then like that will eventually become like the future, right? Like, then everyone's just gonna be, what the fuck is the point of human interaction if you can just have an AI robot that will do everything you want to do?

[David]

People will always, always prefer human interaction. But I think for a lot of.

[Natalie]

People, humans are so flawed.

[David]

Shut up, Natalie.

[Natalie]

No, you shut up. But I think I would much rather be with a fucking boyfriend robot that did everything said. Like, did all.

[David]

I thought you were against me here.

[Natalie]

No, no, like, I think you're saying.

[David]

You'Re part of the problem, that you would also prefer a robot.

[Natalie]

Yeah. And I just don't want it to come to that because that feels sad.

[Jason]

Natalie's robot boyfriend's like always complimenting and you're like, shut the fuck up.

[Natalie]

Like, if you just, if you could just construct your own companion and partner.

[David]

I don't think you'd construct it. I think you'd go into a place and they'd construct it for you. Cause I think if you do it yourself, you'll never get it. Right. Cause you'll get like a people. You'll get like a people pleasing. You need a robot that challenges you. So I think you'll like go into places and it'll like make the robot for you. Yeah, I don't know. I think it's a net positive. I think there's a lot of lonely people in the world and I think lonely people tend to do very harmful things, like to themselves or to other people. And I think that honestly solves a lot of things. And I think if we end the stigma, I'm talking about the stigma that's going to happen in 15 years. I think if we end that stigma before it happens and we allow people to love robots. I think we're gonna be in a lot healthier place overall as a civilization.

[Jason]

I'm gonna play this back for you in, like, three months, and you're gonna be like, what the.

[David]

What was I saying? He's really passionate about ending stigmas that don't exist yet. Alright, guys, that's all the time we have for today's podcast. Thank you guys for listening. Make sure to hashtag endtherobotstigma. Go check out Jason's daily vlogs. Go check out Natalie's. We're hiring. Go check out her application.

[Natalie]

We're not hiring anymore.

[David]

Oh, we're not? We've hired.

[Jason]

Oh, you found somebody.

[David]

Yeah.

[Jason]

Hell yeah.

[David]

We'll see you guys soon. Bye.

[Jason]

Bye.
