the simultaneous sip.
Unknown 0:01
I have a video.
Scott Adams 0:03
Okay, perfect.
Unknown 0:04
If I can pull it up, it'll take me five minutes now. Good morning, everybody. Good morning. Let's get everyone streaming in.
BJ Dichter 0:14
We have a little issue, a tech issue. What happened to your label, Owen?
Unknown 0:23
Owen's there. Yeah, he's there.
Scott Adams 0:25
There's a benefit in all these technical problems. That's how you know it's not AI and this is completely real.
Unknown 0:31
Oh yeah, this is real. You guys, you want to just fly off the handle with me today? Because the video I see you guys wait. Good morning. Hi. So everything is so funny today. We, uh, all were traveling yesterday, snow storms, this and that. And Sergio, might I just add in what happened this morning real quick. Okay. And then a car just drove into Sergio's apartment. That happened right here, right there, right now. Shelly's yeah. His wall's broken. The cops are there. Um, and Shelly's having a technical glitch and the video I say for the simultaneous sip, I don't know where it is. So I think, um, I'm going to just pick a random video, you guys, and we're just going to do the sip and see how it goes. Okay. I think this is the one I wanted.
Unknown 1:28
We do. We have a guest today. We'll tell you who that is. This is just fun, you guys. So listen, you know, we're going to do the sip and then we're going to make proper introductions. Shelly can see us. She can't hear us, but if she talks, we can hear her. Okay. So you guys, I have no idea what's going on. Let's get this sip. We'll do a little minute to compose ourselves and then we'll regroup. And exhale. Okay. Take it away, Scott. And let's go.
BJ Dichter 2:07
Hey everybody.
Unknown 2:14
Come on in. Is there anything to talk about today? Did anything happen last night that's worth discussing? Oh, I think so. Oh, yes. But first, before we get to the discussing part, wouldn't you like to get ready for that with a simultaneous sip? I think you would. And all you need is a Capra mug or a glass of tanker tells or a canteen jug or flask of vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the dopamine hit of the day. The thing that makes everything better, the unparalleled pleasure. It's called the simultaneous sip and it happens now. Go. Well, of course, we'll be talking about the debates, but a couple of little tidbits before that. Number one, we all heard the story the last 24 hours or so about National Intelligence Director John Ratcliffe.
Unknown 3:24
He declassified some information that indicated that Russia was aware that Hillary Clinton was trying to implicate Russia in some kind of cult from her email now as of this morning Politico is reporting that it's fake news that that's not actually something that happened now I believe that's not the final word rather that the the intelligence agencies look like maybe they have some evidence of this but we shall see I remind you of the following 80-20 rule are you ready Here's the 80-20 rule of the month before election day. It goes like this. Any new story that happens in the month before election, if it's a new thing you haven't heard of before, a new twist on a thing would be the same thing. There's an 80% chance it's not true.
Unknown 4:33
Doesn't matter which side it comes from. Doesn't matter what the topic is. If it looks like it's good for anybody and bad for somebody else in terms of the election, you should figure just automatically there's 80% chance it's not true. So we'll see if that one's true. I have to admit it had the sound of not being true. You know, if you had to place a bet on it, you said, okay, you're no expert. But I want you to place a bet on this thing. And the thing is that Putin actually had a conversation, or the intelligence people did, over in Russia about Hillary Clinton trying to distract with a Russia collusion hoax. What do I tell you about stories like that? Are they a little bit too on the nose? You know what I'm talking about?
Unknown 5:27
A little bit too perfect? Timing of the story is a a little bit too good. It might be true, but I would put a 20% chance on it. If you want to know the odds. Ah, okay. I thought that was a good reminder and you're going to ask me, and I'm going to tell you that that is YouTube number 1140.
