What is the theme of today's discussion?

John Smith 0:00
We'll get to that later. If you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank of shells, a stein, a canteen jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now. Go. Sublime. Well, I'd like to do a demonstration now of my powers. Now, this is something that I demonstrated privately on a live stream just before I went live here with the people on Locals. And what I'm going to do is I'm borrowing from a meme that's on the internet now that you can tell your cat to come to you if you use the proper cat language. So there's actually a phrase or a word that apparently will call your house cat to you. So I'm going to do this now. So turn up your speaker if you have a cat in the house and watch what happens. You ready for this? This is real, by the way.

So turn up your speaker if you have a cat and watch what happens.
Scott Adams 1:29
Meow. Meow. Meow.
John Smith 1:35
Now, if it's the same as the live stream I did just before this one, you can have your cats running from all your rooms toward you. Now, tell me in the comments as we go so other people can see if it's working out. But while you're waiting for your cats to attack you and jump on your laps, which they're doing right now, some are coming, some are not. The comments are coming in now. Cats are coming. Some are coming. Some are not. All right. Well, keep an eye on that. So scientists, according to the University of Bristol, they've... Well, that's where it is, actually, the research. The University of Bristol. And they've created the world's first carbon-14 diamond battery. Diamond battery. Yeah. So now you can... Keep your spouse powered up at all times.
John Smith 2:40
So I was looking for a diamond battery. This one could last thousands of years. So what makes it special is how long it lasts, and it could last in terrible environments like space. So you could send down a space probe and have a diamond battery, and it would stay powered for, I don't know, hundreds or thousands of years.

How does diet affect mental health?

John Smith 3:05
So I don't think this will be in common usage, but if you need anything that needs power for a few thousand years, you've got an option. Diamond battery. Well, did you know that if you eat ultra-processed food, you have a higher risk of depressive symptoms, according to SciPost? Of course you did. Or you could have just asked me. Yes, if you eat crap food, your mental state will decline. If you eat healthy food, your mental state will be better. How many times do we need to test this? Would this be the millionth research study that showed that if you eat right, your brain works better and you're happier? I don't think it's ever gone in any other direction, has it? Has there ever been a scientific study that said, we took these people and we made them eat right for a month and everything went off the rails. They couldn't concentrate when they were eating right. Not once. 100% of the science is all in the same direction. Your body is your brain. Good news, Trump has introduced a Trump fragrance. Okay, there's a theme today.
John Smith 4:23
So the theme for the show is that I can't tell what's true today. There's a lot of news today, but Unlike most days where you go, oh, that's probably true. I don't know about that one. Yeah, that looks true. Today, almost every story I looked at, I thought, I don't know if that's true. So is this true? Is it true that Trump introduced a Trump fragrance called Fight, Fight, Fight? Or is that just an internet meme? Does anybody know if that's true? Because the funniest part about it is, even if you like Trump a lot as a politician, do you really want to smell like him? I've never once, never once have I, you know, awakened in the morning and was like, oh, if only. If only I could find a way to smell like President Trump. Now, I'm not saying it smells bad.
