um i'll tell you a claim that i thought was pretty wild was uh the tesla guy
whose name
escapes me um what do i think mosh nash musk elon musk
elon um elon musk was saying that um he made a claim on a podcast that the birthing
rate was
way down with young people and that basically the world population was going to
nosedive
and that we were all going to go extinct rather than it being some big nuclear
war he thought we
were just going to go extinct because everyone was going to stop having babies
and i got to be honest
with you that had to have been one of the dumbest things i've ever heard in my
life you know because
like that's we're just going to go out with like a whimper it's like you don't
think when people
notice that we're becoming extinct that people won't then have babies maybe did
you ever think
why they're not having babies maybe they're not having babies because they don't
want to bring
them into this up world if the population went down significantly and we could
reverse what the
we're doing to the planet maybe more people would feel like there's a reason to
bring a life into
the world i don't think that everyone's just going to sit around going well no
one's having babies
looks like we're all going to go extinct
i have a new theory okay smart people who go on podcasts are not that smart all
right
they're campaigning to be smart that neil degrasse tyson i mean when is he when
is he looking through a
microscope every time you see the guy he's on a podcast i'm on a podcast i went
to summer school
i'm a moron right and then somebody else oh look at me i'm gonna make a
spaceship that goes to mars
you're gonna do it you're gonna sit down and do it or do you have the ability
to organize and delegate
where the really smart people that are making it don't have time to go on a
podcast all these doctors
and going on podcast shouldn't they be like what hey some comedian wants you to
go on his podcast i'm
too busy curing cancer or trying to i don't have time to go on and try to
explain what i'm doing to
somebody with a high school education
i don't know but i'm dumb maybe like that's what it is i don't think like
doctors who are on tv are
that good at their job i don't think uh therapists that host their own talk
show i don't think they
really give a about the mental health of other people i just don't i don't
think they do there's
just something about it where it's just like shouldn't you be like going out
there like
i'm not saying all of it like i think chefs that are on tv are good at what
they do i'm not saying
that they're the best you know i mean i'm in this business i know how that
works just because you're
on tv doesn't mean you're the best at what you do maybe you're the best at the
business or maybe
you caught a break or maybe you know somebody but um that whole theory that
like people are just
going to stop having babies and like that's why we're going to go to extinct it's
got to be the
dumbest thing uh i've ever heard in my life because if that was actually the
case then there really
wouldn't be an abortion debate because there'd be no babies to abort right um
now listen i know i
don't have a shiny face of my own car company but i'm just going to say i don't
think that that's
the smartest theory out there oh my god shots fired all right i'm not even
upset with elon musk i'm just
upset with other mouth-breathing morons like myself that we never question
people like that
where you just kind of sit there going like or at least i don't i just go well
that guy's really
successful he must know things and then once a while i was like well if he's
really that successful
what the f*** is he doing talking to people like me oh who gives a s***
oh my god
uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
