The Joe Rogan experience. It's crazy. Have you seen that new movie everything
everywhere all at once?
No, but I keep hearing amazing things about it. Yeah, we just saw it this past
Did you go to the movie theater? Weekend, yeah. Look at you like a regular
person. Yeah, I like it. Yeah, how was it?
Tell me what it's it's it's a multiverse. Yeah, it's like that there's
She ends up figuring out how to
Switch into her different lives and like take different times
Different lives that she's lived throughout all of time
Wait, what the fuck fast forward and rewind and use these things to her
advantage and try to accomplish things
It's crazy. Oh, I love time travel. Yeah, it's wild
Everything everywhere all at once, you know, that was the that was the theory
that Terrence McKenna had to the thing
That's gonna change the universe is that one day someone's gonna invent a time
machine and that
When they invent a time machine all time ceases to become linear
So you think if you have a time machine well, oh, I'll just go back to the time
where they were making the pyramids and I watch them do it
That's not what it works like when he was saying you can't travel where there
are no roads
So once a road gets built then you can travel so once a time machine gets
invented
Then anyone from the invention of the time machine forward to forever can come
back to that moment and can go to any point in time
From that moment to the end of time so all time ceases to be linear so there's
no like tomorrow will be Wednesday and the next day will be Thursday
No, no, no, it's everything happens everywhere all at once so people can travel
back and forth through time you can never own anything because someone could
just
Travel through time and take it away from you when you weren't looking like
look as time travel gets more and more sophisticated
You can go back and forth in time while you're talking to people
You know if you don't like what you said you could rewind and start all over
again
If you're in an argument with your wife you can go to the library and get
information and come back and go actually
You know Herodotus once said and then BAM your wife thinks you're the smartest
guy in the world like
This but it would it would would there would be no normal life anymore
It would like with the world itself would be completely
Unrecognizable because time would mean nothing you'd be able to travel back and
forth through time
All right, so then so then
Where would you go right now just if I do we can time travel right now go back
in the past in the past
Well, what's one thing you'd like to see again? See that would be a different
kind of time travel
That's an unrealistic theatrical version of time travel because like you said
once time is invented once time travels invented
That's the time you can start traveling so you can't go before that right
Okay, so like here. We are it's May of 2022 if time travel is invented in June
We're not going back to April. You can't go back to April
Okay, you can go to from June to a million years in the future and see what
people look like
You'll be able to do that
But they'll be able to come back to and everything's gonna be happening
everywhere all at once
There's not gonna be any sort of structure to life
There's not gonna be anything in terms of money possessions
As long as you could freely time travel there will be no time everything's
gonna be moving around and and also
Instantaneously you'll become immortal because whatever we have right now in
terms of technology
What we're gonna have in a million years is gonna be god-like
You're gonna be able to travel to that if in fact that actually does even take
place because the question becomes like what is the future?
If time travel does exist so if time travel exists in June of 2022 is there
even a future?
Like does it even take place because how can anybody invent things when they
can just travel to a point where someone invented it already?
But how are they gonna invent it already if you can just travel to the future
and do they invent things still or do people
if they do invent things how to help what's to stop people from going back
before them and
Taking the idea and introducing it before that thus there'll be no intellectual
property because there'll be no way to say you came up with it first
It won't exist Carlos Muncie will be the greatest comedian in the world
Just smashing Wow about think about that. Is there someone working on time
between machines right now?
There's got to be right. Well, there's a guy named Ronald Millette
I think he's out of the University of Connecticut if you google this and he's
got the craziest spider-man
character
origin story
His father died and he became obsessed with time travel because he wanted to go
back in time and save his father
So he became a professor
Studying time travel and he came up with a workable model of a time machine,
but it requires
immense immense power. That's him
Ron Millette built a device that illustrates the principles he believes could
be used to build a time machine
but
He was one of the people that came up with the first one of the first people to
come up the real is it realization or the revelation that once that time
machine was
Invented. I was dad died in Vietnam. Yeah
But it's I mean it is really like a comic book
Superhero sort of a origin story isn't it? Yeah, it's a great origin story.
Yeah
So this guy has become obsessed and has been working on it for decades and they
think they have a working model of
You know like at least a theoretical model of a time machine, but it just
requires like the power of the Sun
It requires immense power. I think there's a guy from I
Think the early 19th century
Kurt Godel
He wasn't from the early 19th century early 20th century and he had a working
model of a time machine, too
but it involved
Something as large as like the solar system like you needed a like a machine
the size of a solar system or something something crazy
Yeah
Kurt Godel in 1949 found a solution to the field equations of general
relativity which described a space-time with some unusual properties
this Godel universe permitted
Closed time like curves hence the kind of time travel and it did not admit
Composition into the successive moments of time
Yeah, so he had I didn't understand any of that sentence
I mean like that I'm so I'm like so stupid that if I think if I start to
realize what that means it gives me a panic attack
Like as you talk about there's no anything ever anywhere or when you just
mentioned the universe and I realize there is
there is
There is something really up there. Oh, yeah, it's not just up there. It's out
there. Yeah, it's all around you that
I don't like infinity. I'm that I fucking gives me a panic attack and
immediately
Yeah, it'll give you a panic attack if you if you really do stop and give it
time and think about it's an amazing thing
Do you think that they'll be able to take like I don't know if we have to go to
computer modeling, but I'll
Take the data of like this video for instance where these kids are in 1901
Yeah, and put that into my virtual reality where you could then insert yourself.
Yeah to be in there
You can't affect anything, but you could at least experience and hear what it's
like
Yeah
But you probably get an interpretation of it like say if they wanted to do that
today and they had this
Unbelievable ability to create people and images and places and they decided to
show you the construction of the pyramids
They'll just be guessing
Thank you.
