What should I expect in today's podcast?
I think we should get ready for the best Saturday podcast you're ever going to see. Because all the lazy people are sleeping in. But boy, we're not lazy. Or we're in different time zones. That works too. All right, let's get our notes and our comments. Good morning, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time. But 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 mug or a glass of tank or chalice or stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure
The dopamine edit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and it's going to happen right now. Go. Oh, that's just what I wanted. Just what I wanted. All right, get that fucking comment out of there. There we go. Well, after the show, there will be a special spaces for those of you who want a little extra. That will be hosted by Owen Gregorian on X. So if you're on X, just look for Owen Gregorian's X account, and you'll see the link for the spaces that will start after I'm done here. Well, let's see. According to the Daily Mail, there are secret CIA files that claim to expose the secret locations of three alien bases. And two of them are on Earth.
Are alien bases on Earth real?
And apparently they discovered them using remote viewing. Now, I guess the remote viewing was all they needed. So they didn't go to those places and look around, at least the ones on Earth, and see if there were actually any alien bases. But I'm here to tell you that remote viewing, which is where you have this psychic person go, oh, I can see miles from here. There's a submarine base or whatever. It's not real. Now, you might say to yourself, but Scott, There's a peer-reviewed study that shows that it is. To which I say, peer-reviewed studies are not worth anything. You need a randomized controlled study. Do you know how many remote viewers have passed a randomized controlled study? none none zero it's never happened now if the only test that's good enough for science is a randomized controlled study and if remote viewing were real and people could do it it would be the greatest asset the united states ever had i mean it would it would allow us to win wars and find aliens and oh my god would that be valuable
but nobody's ever passed a randomized controlled study for remote viewing. It's always anecdotal. The one I always laugh about, there's a famous case of the guy who was the best remote viewer. And he was told to look at some location in Russia, or Soviet Union, I guess. It was a while ago. And he accurately drew a picture of a submarine base. So he showed the submarine and some support structures on the port. And I said to myself, all right, If somebody asked you to look at a remote place in Russia, and it was somebody who would be interested in a military kind of information, don't you think that would be enough to tip you off that you're looking for some kind of military thing? And if that location happened to be on the water, as in it was sort of an easy place for any kind of maritime stuff, don't you think you would say to yourself, hmm, sounds like some kind of naval base. But if they asked the remote viewer, that means that they can't see what they need to see with a satellite.
Is remote viewing a legitimate practice?
So you'd say to yourself, hmm, it's near the water, it's Russia, it's probably military, but you can't see everything you need to see from a satellite. What would that leave? A submarine. So every time you see one of these or hear about one of these stories where a remote viewer got an amazing hit, like how could they possibly have guessed that? It's the usual way. There are just some hints. And then every once in a while, somebody's just going to get lucky. They're just going to literally guess, and it'll be pretty close. So that's what remote viewing is. Remote viewing is very much not real. If you'd like to check that for yourself, do what I did, which is ask Grok. Has there ever been a randomized controlled study that showed that remote viewing is real?
