Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

I can't believe it doesn't exist.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

So, but let me show you.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

So here's what's happening here.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

We just hired some day laborers off of what, like Craigslist or something.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Yeah.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

So what Scientology did was they had a private investigator stake out the house flip project.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

They were clearly running license plates of anyone who visited the property.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Because otherwise, how would they find out the laborer's names, do background checks on them to find out they had criminal records?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

And they published this as if it's going to reflect negatively on me.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Oh, we hired someone to do work who had a criminal record?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Who gives a shit?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

You know, one of the biggest problems people with records have is finding employment.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

There's nothing bad about hiring someone who's got a criminal record.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

It doesn't reflect negatively on me, but it shows you what they think about those people.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

It shows you what they think about people who are trying to put their lives back together and maybe, you know, actually work for a living.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

And it also shows that they're surveilling us.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Like, they don't realize that putting this up, they're publishing information that they could only have if they're surveilling me and Mike, and it doesn't occur to them, maybe we shouldn't put that up.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

That's the other reason to be prolific on the internet, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

The reason Joe Rogan can't get canceled

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

is because anyone can watch thousands of hours of the authentic Joe Rogan.
