Full Transcription

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Oh, I said hello, hello, hello.
Can everyone hear me actually?
I think I said stuff and then my mic was muted.
I'm a noob.
Welcome to the show.
Welcome to, it's not the first crappy advice show.
We used to do this.
Was that like 2022?
Yeah, I feel like it was 2022.
We only did it like twice, but it was super fun.
It's been years now.
Look how old we are.
It's 2026.
Holy shit.
Well, yeah, in 2022, and I don't know if anyone was here.
I think Dusk was probably here.
So shout out to Dusk in the audience.
But back when we did it, we were talking to each other.
We'd be like, one of these days, maybe we'll grow and, you know, we'll get sponsored and maybe we'll be big.
And it was like, you know, like a joking pie in the sky thing.
And look at us now.
This is like when I first started using Twitter.
I started using Twitter in 2022 after losing a bunch of money to Celsius.
I was a little baby account. But you were like one of my first friends on Twitter. It's very cute. Yeah. And now look at
us. We look at us. Yeah. As you see, we're brought to you by Polymarket. And yeah, I just want to say
a little few things about Polymarket first. Yeah. We wanted to thank Polymarket as being the sponsor
of our show. Polymarket's obviously the world's wanted to thank Polymarket as being the sponsor of our show.
Polymarket's obviously the world's largest prediction market, but beyond that, it's become
one of the most useful media institutions for figuring out what's going to happen next.
Personally, I trust Polymarket more than legacy media, because instead of having to read biased
reports or opinion pieces on Polymarket, people actually put their money where their mouth is,
and probabilities are updated in real time. Frankly, I don't know how you feel, but I think Polymarket is even more reliable than polls.
And I actually often check Polymarket before I even check news headlines.
Yeah, I mean, I think like if you have a poll you just answered, it's kind of like
virtue signaling, right? You said something versus like you're actually putting your money there.
So I trust when people put their money somewhere.
Exactly, exactly. So I mean mean we can look at some of
the trending markets on polymarket right now like first off I'm sure most of you guys saw
yesterday's viral story where a man sprayed Ilhan Omar with some unknown liquid during a town hall
meeting um I don't know if you've seen this but I've seen a ton of ex-accounts insist that this
this incident had to be staged and like I'm obviously not a fan of Ilhan Omar.
I'm not here to defend her, but I also think a lot of accounts probably just want to post hot takes for engagement.
I heard it was apple cider vinegar, but I've also seen tons of pictures of them together.
And then like these community notes are like, this is AI.
And then these community notes are like, this is AI.
So I, you know, it's like really hard to know.
They're calling the attacker like, or they're calling this event like with Jesse Smollett 2.0 or whatever.
Yeah, I'm seeing a ton of stuff about this.
And I'm seeing like apparently he has liberal kids.
I don't know what exactly is going on.
But like, I don't know.
Instead of just reading headlines, I was like, okay, let's look on Polymarket and see what traders are saying about this. And on Polymarket, traders are only
pricing about a 3% chance that the incident was staged. So, I mean, it looks like there's a lot
of noise on X, like people asserting it's all fake. Yeah, on X it would be like 98%.
Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Me too. It's like my whole feed. So yeah, I guess it's just sort of like PR,
like, I don't know, people are loud on X, but it's like, are you willing to put your
money where your mouth is? Are you willing to bet on your online claims? So I don't know.
I think that Polymarket is actually kind of useful for looking at stuff. It's like stories
like this.
Yeah, I guess we'll see.
I guess we'll see. I guess we'll see. And I mean, and there's also a bunch of news about
a potential government shutdown coming up.
Right now, Polymarket's pricing it at around a 72% chance. So the government shuts down on Saturday.
And apparently Congress is deadlocked over DHS funding. And if they don't reach a deal by Friday night, we get a government shutdown.
Another one.
I wonder if the government shutdown is just like, they don't do anything anyway.
Like how they determine what, it's like, that's a hundred percent, right?
That the government isn't accomplishing anything good for us.
Like last year we had apparently the longest government shutdown in US history, 43 days.
And I'm like, I don't know if it meaningfully impacted my life at all.
Did it impact your life, Billy?
I don't know.
I made a lot of posts complaining.
That was impact.
Maybe we made more money on engagement on our posts
complaining about the government shutdown.
Yeah, maybe we should want the shutdown.
I don't know.
Okay, so we're rooting for another one.
I don't know.
I just wish we had a competent government,
but I don't want to waste too much time
complaining about the government in our spaces.
Yeah, I feel you.
I feel you.
Well, apparently it's a 72% chance, so we'll see.
We only got a couple of days to wait.
And then, I mean, also another trending topic, our last one, is that gold and silver prices
are skyrocketing right now, which, I mean, as a Bitcoin holder has been very, very distressing
to watch. But Polymarket Traders, apparently, there's a 45% chance on Polymarket that silver hits $120 by the end of the month.
What is it now?
Or actually, Adam?
I think the last I checked, it was $117, so very close.
End of the month is only a couple days away.
I saw gold actually hit an all-time high of $5,400.
I have some facts about this, so I'm going to give you a pop quiz. Oh, God. I'm gold actually hit an all-time high of 5,400. Okay, I have some facts about this,
so I'm gonna give you a pop quiz. Oh, God, I'm gonna fuck this up. Yeah, that's fine.
I would fuck this up except I have the notes in front of me, but all right.
You're just gonna make me look stupid. What's the market cap of Bitcoin?
Oh, God. Oh, God. I don't know, Billy. I don't even want to guess this because I'm sure it would be like hundreds of millions of dollars. I don't know. Billions off. So what is it?
It's $1.78 trillion.
Oh, my God.
And then the highest market cap company is NVIDIA right now, which is $4.5 trillion.
Oh, my God.
Okay. So what's the market cap, do you think, of silver?
Oh, Billy, why are you doing this to me?
I didn't know I was going to get pop quiz.
Yeah, yeah.
Billy, thank God this is a space so no one can see me.
Silver market cap right now.
Let's see, what is it?
Are you cheating?
Are you cheating?
I am actually looking up.
No, you just say it.
Just say it. Silver is $6 trillion, supposedly, and gold is $37 trillion.
So when this stuff goes up, it like goes up...
Like when gold goes up 20%, that's like from $36 trillion to like $48 trillion.
You know, it's like...
It's so...
The numbers are so insane.
Oh my God.
Billy, this is kind of a mindfuck.
I would have been totally off about all of these.
And then we actually, if we can reach the core of the earth
and mine the gold from that, which I don't think is possible
because it's like a jillion degrees,
but there's like 122 billion metric tons of,
no, that's just accessible.
What is it?
1.6 quadrillion tons of gold in the core.
So all we got to do is drill down there and grab it
and not die in the process,
which I think is impossible
and will probably destroy the planet if we did that.
Let's go, guys.
Let's get that gold.
It's possible that they'll start mining
you know if we have a base
in Mars and we can send out
stuff we can start mining
and there's certain asteroids that have like a shitload
of gold on them or platinum and all this stuff
so there's an estimate that an
asteroid that's full of gold will have like
700 quintillion dollars
of precious metals on it.
Holy shit, send the asteroid.
Yeah, I was thinking like, oh, could they like move it toward Earth?
But then I was like, well, that's probably not good.
That would be crappy advice.
Like, oh, how do we get an asteroid to Earth?
Like, we'll just take it and like massage it down to Earth.
And then we'd all die uh because we're hoping that the u.s gets hit by an asteroid
so we can marginally own a little bit more a little more precious mineral yeah so that yeah
perfect that's our first crappy advice piece uh to the future people that we should um send
asteroids down that have a ton of gold on them
so we can mine them and then destroy the world. Perfect. Perfect. But we'll at least be a little
bit richer. Perfect. Okay. Well, we can actually start giving real crappy advice or whatever.
I mean, well, I guess, I mean, just to finalize that little segment, like,
you know, we don't give finance. We're not going to tell you guys what to buy,
what to do with your money.
But, you know, with Polymarket, we just talked about,
you know, even if you don't trade on Polymarket,
it's an excellent news source.
So we just wanted to thank them as our sponsor.
But yeah, no, I mean, Billy, do you give financial advice?
I think that that is one thing.
My financial advice is you got to, you're an adult.
Like, don't listen to fucking idiots on the internet.
Just figure out by yourself what you want to do with your money
and don't blame people because that's stupid.
I agree with that.
And I would say no one should listen to my financial advice anyway.
I've lost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Why would anyone listen to us?
Famously, I've traded a bunch of Dogecoin for what is, they say is a Honda Civic.
This is not actually a true story, but whatever.
Like, I lost out on many millions from stupid crypto trades.
So don't listen to me about, like, no one should listen to me about financial advice.
That'd be silly.
No one should listen to me about any advice, but we're going to do it anyway.
So some of the rules of this show, we're going to invite people up.
We also have some questions, I think, written that we might get to, but we're going to invite
people up here.
There are three rules.
Number one, don't come up and be toxic.
We'll boot you.
Number two, I know people love to shill their shit coins, but please don't do that.
It's annoying and no one cares. So we'll
boot you. And number three...
Oh, that removes some requests, actually.
Number three,
don't be boring. If you're boring,
we'll also boot you because, you know,
we're trying to make a show here.
Do you want to start with somebody? Do you want to start
with one of the written questions?
We can start with someone.
I don't know what's going to happen, guys.
Someone might come on just to be like, I fucking hate you.
So I'm a little nervous, but sure.
I'll have the removal button ready.
But let's bring up Lego King.
Lego King, how's it going?
Lego King.
Lego King. Lego King.
Lego King.
All right.
Let me give some advice, some crappy advice to people.
If you want to come up, please talk.
Please say things.
Please ask your questions.
All right.
We're going to bring up up dad his name is dad
nice name yeah and his picture is a guy with the coolest tiffany and shib what's up dad
i'm just chilling here in this new house trying to sell it with damn flexing on us yeah is that
what you want to be called by the
way you want to be called dad is that your your go-to name you know i've been going back and
forth i think i like the dad thing um but some people really don't some people have really
negative experiences with their fathers and i kind of feel that's sad i know i'm thinking about
changing it but maybe i mean i feel like i call yeah i call a lot of people dad on the internet, so I mean, you're just added to the list now.
You have a lot of dads, Tiffany.
You have all the Asian dads.
Yeah, I'm collecting all the Asians,
and I guess now, I don't know what ethnicity
you are, but I'm collecting a new one right now.
I'm pretty white.
Yeah, it doesn't seem Asian.
Alright, well, dad,
do you have a scenario or something
that you'd like some crappy advice on?
Yeah, I did.
When I saw this post, I had a bunch of questions, but now I'm like, this is kind of cool being in the room with you two.
Yeah, well, can you think of one?
Think of one of your questions.
Think of one of the questions that you had.
All right, Dad.
I'm drawing a blank.
It's all good.
That hook thing that's coming that knocks you off the stage,
you got like five seconds for a question.
Yeah, I don't have one.
I just want to say hi.
We'll bring the next one up.
Hook me off.
You guys are awesome.
Have a good one, Dad.
Yeah, Dad didn't have a question.
This is the problem with Twitter space is it's tough to screen things in advance.
See, we were thinking about what format.
Yeah, there's no screening.
We're just winging it here.
Because the next time we do this we're
gonna try doing video like live stream format where we can actually read the questions in
advance and like kick off the the stupid ones or i don't know we'll we'll figure it out we'll
figure it out yeah first time back in years i think this is what happened when we did this
show live before anyway we got like like four or five good questions. All right. We're inviting Nomad up.
Nomad, how are you?
Please talk.
This is sad times.
Sad times.
All right.
Give me a number between one and ten Because we have a lot of requesters 1
We're getting
Evan Aldo up
Evan Aldo please
Please say thanks
When you accept the request
It takes a moment
You don't hear it cuts out
Yeah no I have nothing to say at all no i'm just kidding oh my gosh the moonbirds the thing has
been talking about i mean obviously the news you know powell i mean i guess just for the
cryptoverse just pray it's not like pray it's not like january of 2025 a repeat of that where
everything you know comes down a bit um so i think that's uh that's the
hit my head on dim white um that's the thing to um to realize here but i mean i don't know i feel
like nasdaq double top that looks weak wait but but what but the show is uh you ask us a question
and then we give you advice so no no i give you a bit i'm just kidding uh okay so what's the what
do you guys like what do you guys think of the moon birds what do you guys think of
that what is moon birds oh god okay I'm fucking rock up here because you know
actually I think that if if anyone like tries to show their stupid ass fucking
meme coin I think we should actually just block them.
Maybe we just block them so they never get invited back again and to disincentivize people shilling their shit.
Because we're not trying to promote your stupid ass coins.
Fuck your stupid coin.
And fuck your stupid NFT project.
I don't give a shit.
Someone launched a shit coin off one of my posts, that stupid hot dog post.
People do that all the time.
People just get constantly off everything and it's it's i hate that i know it's a get out of my comments section
i don't want to get mad if you like don't talk about it anymore and like kobe just uh complained
about it this earlier it's just it's just kind of toxic garbage it's insane yeah i would like to say
i've never i've never yeah if you see anyone I guess either of us, we have not endorsed it.
It is not ours.
But hi, Brock.
Brock, how's it going?
How's it going?
You guys need a question, Jessica. I'll give you a layup.
I appreciate that.
I'll give you the layup, and then I'll give you a better one.
So I got to ask you, is a hot dog a sandwich or no?
Oh, that's not a layup.
That's hard.
It should be a layup this is deep so I don't know what the definition
of a sandwich is
but I don't consider a hot dog a sandwich
I know it has bread, I know it's surrounding
some type of meat but I personally
don't consider a hot dog a sandwich because
I think of sandwich as like
two pieces of bread that are like
not connected and usually
wheat or white
that's an important distinction.
I feel like that, yeah, a sandwich has two separate pieces of bread and a hot dog.
If anything, is a hot dog closer to a taco?
But a taco's a little spicy Mexican.
So a hot dog is like a white person's taco.
But it's one carbohydrate. One piece of carbs.
Brock, have you had some major fights about this?
I've asked.
So I asked Elon in a space.
He said it is not a sandwich.
I asked Linda Yaccarino.
She said it's not a sandwich.
So pretty much everyone is agreed.
Has Elon said it was a sandwich?
Not anyone of note yet.
Wow. A Greg also, not, of note yet. Wow.
Greg, also, not a sandwich.
He thumbsed up.
Oh, Greg said something?
No, I made a thumbs up or down, you know.
Fair, fair, fair.
Okay, so what...
Another question.
Okay, I'm a Canadian famously trying to leave Canada
and get American citizenship.
Do you have any crappy advice for me to do so?
Is it illegal for us to tell you to get married?
Is that illegal?
Because if so, don't do that.
I don't think it's illegal to get married.
Like, I don't know.
I'm not telling you to just do an illegal green card marriage,
but I'm like, I don't know.
I feel like if you find a lovely lady here,
that's a fact.
Wait, Brock, how tall are you?
Six foot one.
Okay, you're good.
You're six foot one white guy.
That's pretty good.
My DMs are open.
Is there any ladies in here,
or what do you guys attract?
Any ladies?
Only in the U.S.
Only U.S. citizen ladies.
U.S. base.
Recorded space.
I can't partake in this.
This is a recorded space, so it's you guys. Sorry about that. I can't partake in this this is a recorded space
so it's you guys
sorry about that
I have nothing to do with this
I'm just asking the question
we're marketing you now
this is kind of fun
yeah if there are any takers
if someone finds love
on our podcast
on our little show
that would be sick
so if there are any ladies
who are interested in Brock
he's 6'1 he's white
are you rich Brock
or are you eh or you know I'm alright Ladies who are interested in Brock. He's 6'1", he's white. Yeah. Are you rich, Brock?
Or are you eh?
You know, I'm alright.
Tell us your net worth.
Give us the number.
What's the number?
What's the exact net worth value?
How much gold do you have?
Give me your social security number. I should have bet on Polymarket.
Your credit card number.
The UFC fights last weekend.
Because that was a fuck.
I don't know if you guys watch UFC.
That was sick.
No, I don't watch UFC, because, I don't know.
Well, that's my plug for Polymarket.
UFC, amazing.
Yeah, apparently I think Polymarket's the official sponsor of the UFC,
or they have some official partnership.
I feel like Polymarket is everywhere.
But this is exciting, Brock.
Okay, well, okay, so that's one path.
We find you a lady on this show.
Yeah, I don't know.
I actually don't know the other paths, to be honest.
You can't get the, what's the visa now, right?
Like the state's like, yeah, we ain't doing that no more.
That costs 100 grand.
Oh, the Trump card, $5 million.
Anyone wants to donate?
You know, we could start that maybe.
Yeah, I think, yeah, if you want to launch a GoFundMe,
you'll probably get like $2 or something. But, I think, yeah, if you want to launch a GoFundMe, you'll probably get, like, $2 or something.
But, you know, whatever toward the goal.
I'll get sent the shit coins that we get thrown in the comment section.
But, yeah, I don't think, actually, like, all I know is, you know,
I have friends that want to be U.S. citizens who come,
who work here for a long time,
and then they get into some, like, visa lottery,
and they complain all the time about it so i don't really know how it works other than getting married to
be honest yeah i actually don't either to be honest perfect this is great crappy advice
i mean we can chat gpt it for you and read you the answers but i'm assuming you've done this. Oh, I'll catch you, BT. I don't care.
All right.
How do you get U.S. citizen if Canadian?
Oh, it's thinking.
This is riveting.
It's riveting.
I do think the most fun option, though, is finding U.S. Oh, you have to be employed.
That sounds boring.
Diversity visa lottery.
Oh, Canadians aren't eligible for the Diversity Visa Lottery.
Sorry, bro.
You can't get asylum because I don't...
Wait, did you say Diversity Visa?
What was that?
There's a Diversity Visa Lottery, but I don't think you can do that.
There's Asylum Refugee.
I don't think you can do that for Canada.
I'm not sure you can be like, oh oh God, Canada is destroying my life. There's an investment visa,
but you need a $1 million investment. So yeah, just go there and be like, I'm Canadian A,
I'm six foot one and white and have a, are you buff? I think you're buff. Or at least I've seen pictures online
where you look buff. Or you have like
that Macklemore haircut, right? Like,
I don't know. I don't know. No, I look
homeless right now. I got like a mullet, basically.
I'm thinking of doing a porn shot for a mullet. No.
Don't do that.
That's not going to help my case, guys.
We're really marketing him. You gotta look good.
And then, you know. Do you have a mullet?
No, fix that. No, no. Fix the mullet. Yeah. Don't have a mullet. Look good to look good. And then, you know. Do you have a mullet? No, fix that.
Fix the mullet.
Don't have a mullet.
Look good, you know.
Okay, so I'm going to make over then.
Get a makeover.
Get on the dating apps and set your location to anywhere in the United States.
Maybe like pick a place that has probably the ugliest concentration of men.
And then you can stand out there.
And yeah, this could be
good i also think this would be a fun segment to just market men on the show and try to help them
find love we can have a little matchmaking segment i'm sure there's a lot of yeah that would be fun
we could set odds on it too yeah yeah all right that'd be fun well thank you for the question
and uh actually giving us a question.
Yo, if you come up here, you better have a question ready.
Don't be like, hey, Grace.
Thank you, Brock.
Because you're a good person, I'm going to leave you up,
and then we're going to bring someone else up.
But, Brock, would you like to give us an hour between 1 and 11?
Okay, let's go with 7 is going to be good.
Let's go with 7. 4, 5, 6, 11. Okay, let's go with... 7's going to be good. Let's go with 7.
4, 5, 6, 7.
Okay. Here we go.
I mean, the picture is Two-Face, so...
Oh, this could go...
We'll see if this goes...
This is concerning.
Farm assist.
Farm assist.
Like farmist.
Pharmacist, you have a question for us.
Are you ready to talk?
In three, two, one.
Come on, guys.
I'll get some backup questions ready or something.
Hell yeah.
Another number between one and 12 sir i failed
you go ahead tiffany you got one oh god no uh three i was gonna say three honestly wow look at
us okay this guy has potential he's he's making uh faces so spaceman that's me that's you and you
have it sounds like you have a good mic like oh it seems pretty
pretty quality no it's just a dumb airpod it's not okay that's that's what i have to well
no i have a question for you yes so i mean yes i'm i'm i'm i'm a little bit later in my years
and throughout those those years and i'm a southern california native and disneyland
has me like scared shitless because I don't like crowds
anymore. But
the Olympics are coming to Los Angeles
Give me some crappy advice
on whether I should
or should not go.
Okay, so when you say a little older
is this like, oh man, I'm like 27
not 23 anymore.
I'm your dad.
I've got to be.
Okay, so you don't like crowds.
What is it about crowds that you don't like?
I just don't like bumping into people anymore.
You know what I mean?
Me neither.
I don't like crowds either.
I'm only, I'm not that old and I don't like crowds either.
And I think it stresses me out.
Like even being at a music festival, it stresses me out because once you decide you would like to leave and i'm like i'd actually rather be home right now
i'm like it's such an ordeal to get out of a really crowded like area or venue like that so
there's a point right there's a point like you're there and you're like okay i get this vibe
everyone's here there's kind of this excitement but there is a point where all of a sudden my
brain just switches and says i would rather be home right now. Absolutely.
Completely relatable to me as well.
I feel like I have like one or two solid socializing hours in me
and then I'm like, I need to be in bed right fucking now.
It's a limit.
It's a limit.
We should all have like limit gauges over our heads.
Like, okay, that's enough for now.
I totally agree.
Enough of you, sir.
And I am done with this conference.
That's actually what I want from like those AR glasses that are coming out.
I want us to be able to set a bunch of stuff.
One for Brock for dating.
If you're looking, you could just use your AR glasses and look over people.
I'm single.
Yeah, and then it's like, I'm single and here's my hobbies and whatever.
I'm a 38% match to you or whatever.
Oh, that would be cool that would
be cool the match would be awesome that would be a totally good like black mirror episode right
yeah it would be but also uh i think for your social gauge i think that makes a lot of sense
like i'm an introvert like this is this is hell this is literally so for me i don't like noise
i don't like being in a place where it's like super noisy, like a bar.
And then someone's talking to me and I'm like, I can't really hear them.
So I'm just pretending to hear and then I'd like say something else.
And it's just pointless and I want to leave.
So that's the type of crowds I don't like.
But I do like going to like a sporting event that I really care about with a crowd that's really excited.
I find that really fun.
So I'm wondering if you do you really like any of the Olympic sports?
Is it the Winter or Summer Olympics?
It's the Summer Olympics.
Okay, so no luge.
But yeah, why would the Winter Olympics be in LA anyway?
So let's see, what's the best?
Like basketball?
I mean, volleyball or basketball. best like basketball i mean volleyball or basketball
yeah i would do volleyball or basketball i i get it it is kind of cool to be at sporting events
where people are like-minded and kind of jeer at the you know the opposing team and laugh about it
uh but it's it's i maybe it's just filtering through the people that i'm really scared about
it's not really once i'm in my seat and you know in the place yeah that's a good point i think it's just filtering through the people that I'm really scared about. It's not really once I'm in my seat and in the place.
Yeah, that's a good point.
I don't know.
I think it's one of those things where if there's one event that you really, really like,
like if you really want to see volleyball,
you have a crush on one of the beach volleyball chicks or something,
and you just really want to see it with a bunch of people,
I think it'd probably be worth it to go and you'd be like,
I was there, I stared at her butt the entire time or whatever, right?
But I think
for me, I've gone to a
Super Bowl, I've gone to other events
Oh damn, I didn't know that
It was okay, but
I would have rather been home
It was like, well
you can't see replays because
they don't show all the replays on the screen
It's just there's a lot of people going in and out.
And it wasn't as amazing as you might think it was, other than the story of it.
Like, oh, I went to the Super Bowl.
And people are like, that's so cool.
And you're like, yeah.
That is cool.
I've been to Lakers playoffs games.
But it doesn't, like the in-between, you don't get the commentary.
You see these cockamamie shows, right, that't, like, the in-between, you don't get the commentary. You see these cockamamie
shows, right, that no one's really
interested in. And the food, obviously,
is way too expensive in some part.
So the experience
of being there is cool,
but everything else that you get
from, like, TV, where stuff
is kind of fed to you, that's gone.
It's missing. Yeah, and the other thing is, like,
I had, like, a fanny pack with, like,
a bunch of stuff in it, and they were like,
you can't bring that in here, because you have to, like,
have a clear one or something, and I'm like,
I can show you what's in this
fucking fanny pack, there's, like, nothing in here.
They're like, no, and so I had to, like,
walk back to the place and dump off
my fanny pack so I could go into
the event, and I was already like, ah,
screw this event like I would
rather just be at home drinking a corona or whatever uh you know so this is supposed to be
crappy advice though right so maybe I'm just wrapping myself in bubble tape just to make it
to the volleyball arena yeah to check out hot girls and then enjoy right yeah sure
wait but are you like camera lens are you like getting free tickets or something?
Or is this something that you would have to invest a lot of money into going to?
Because I feel like that would change my perspective.
I thought that's what I win by being on this basis.
Is it not?
We're going to buy you Super Bowl tickets.
I've totally missed the thing.
You win our approval and thumbs up here.
You can have a thumbs up.
That is worth way more than free tickets.
I got that.
It really is worth more.
You guys are gold.
If you somehow have tickets, I would probably honestly like for some historic event.
I also hate crowds.
I hate nightclubs, things like that.
But if it's something historic, like if I got, for example, free Super Bowl tickets,
I feel like I'd probably honestly just get kind of drunk to make like the crowd a little bit more bearable.
But also I think that would make me have to pee more.
That's a good idea.
Tiffany, that's good advice.
That's good advice.
For the crappy advice, just get shit face.
Just get super wasted.
There you go.
There you go.
And then like be a public business.
And then not remember anything.
Don't remember anything.
Just black out.
You go like hit on the volleyball girl like in front of the crowd
and everyone booze you.
Drove on the court.
You go to jail
and then you're like,
wow, that was great.
Guys in the audience,
You got to be clapping for this.
That's just the crappiest advice ever.
Thanks so much, you guys,
for having me on.
I really appreciate it.
Yeah, we appreciate you.
Thanks for having a question.
That was a good choice.
You're awesome.
Number three was a good number. Good job, Tiff. Let's go. Good job, Space Man. Yeah, we appreciate you. Aw, thanks for having a question. That was a good choice. You're awesome. Number three was a good number.
Good job, Tiff.
Good job, Spaceman.
Thanks, guys.
All right, but before you go, though,
we need a number between one and 13 for the next person.
Oh, yeah, you can pick our next person.
Let's go 12.
All right.
Thanks again, guys.
No problem.
Happy to have you.
How precious.
All right, we got...
How do you say...
B-C-L-A-3...
Oh, you pronounce it Beclays.
That makes sense.
I'm like...
I appreciate you guys a lot.
Yeah, I'm not very smart.
AI pronounces it as Beclothrius.
Anyways, my question for you guys
is, I'm stuck in Ontario,
and Polymark gets banned in Ontario,
so is there a future path
we can use Polymark in Ontario?
Okay, so after Brock becomes a US
citizen, you should
marry him, and then
get citizenship.
Speaking of banned, the speaker has me
blocked, so this is kind of funny.
Okay, well, that won't work out
very well. I don't know who he is.
I don't blame you, dude, by the way. My shit's annoying. You're good.
It was probably some
shit about drama
or something, because I just went on a spree.
Because my timeline got so toxic at one point
that I was just... You're kidding. I post bullshit.... I did not block you though, so I'm not sure
why it still says block.
That's totally fair.
I don't personally know because
that's going to be up to the government of
Canada and I have
no personal
ability to influence that.
Well, the Polymarket
account is sitting here. I don't know if they're
planning to talk, but if Polymarket would like to interject, we're going to just give them the
opportunity. We're open to interjecting, but they might be busy tweeting news stories right now. So
I don't know. But I also don't know the path ahead for Polymarket in Canada. Don't know the legal path
ahead. But i would imagine
they're actively working to get in as many countries as possible so i would imagine
they're trying yeah i think that was yeah i went to go bet and i was like a band so i'm like crock
when is polymarket going to be available in canada and it's like it is just not in ontario
i'm like oh really oh yeah just listen that's the very why do you live in ontario then it sounds
stupid i don't know is that is that where toronto is then? It sounds stupid. I don't know.
Is that where Toronto is?
Basically, yeah.
Okay, yeah, I don't know anything about Canada.
I know Vancouver, some British Columbia,
and then there's like some boring places,
and then there's Ontario.
Maybe you speak French. And there's Quebec.
Basically a bunch of farmland,
and you're exactly right.
All of us are basically in Ontario.
I did a report on Saskatchewan
in like third or fourth grade
because we all got assigned like provinces to do a report on.
And then, you know, people were like, yeah, Manitoba.
You know, you got all excited.
And I got Saskatchewan.
I'm like, what the fuck?
So I was trying to find what's interesting about Saskatchewan.
So the first line of my report is like,
many of you might think Saskatchewan is not interesting but it's very interesting
it has rivers
I learned that it had rivers and farmland
and I don't even know if it has people
I think it might have like 10 or something
it's got tundra
that's the only thing I know about Canada
it's got tundra
that's so funny
I appreciate you guys giving me the time to talk, though.
Yeah, I appreciate you, sir. Would you like
to give us a number between 1 and 13
for the next person?
Let's go with 13. Fuckin' number 13.
13. Alright, thanks, everybody. Talk to you guys later.
Alright, we got Will.
you have been
chosen by a number.
By Beclays.
By Beclays.
All right, Will, I like your picture.
It says, I'm a buffalo penguin and I like fish and salad.
And then it says some other stuff.
So I'm going to remove you in five, four, three, two, one.
All right.
Yeah, you pick number now.
I'll just pick the number.
Here, just do this person.
Wait, did I click it?
I didn't click it.
It just moved.
Everything's bad.
Okay, we'll do this one.
This is Clovis.
Clovis is being, was it Sisyphus? Is that the person who... Oh, Sisyphus. Yeah, the myth of Sisyphus, pushing the rock up the hill, the boulder up the hill.
Yeah, I know something. Sisyphus.
Yeah, look at us.
Clovis is supporting small accounts.
Albert Camus, right?
Keep pushing away the obstacles in your path and you will
I bought the myth of fist
of fist when I was deeply
depressed and going through an existential
crisis. Beautiful.
All right. Well, Clovis is not talking, so
I am sorry. Clovis.
Damn it. All right. So we're going to do Jesse because I know Jesse talks.
Hello, Jesse.
Hey, guys.
Hi, Jesse.
So I have a question for Tiffany.
Not for me.
What is Tiffany for?
Can I say something?
Billy can chime in.
Yeah, come on.
So how can I get the guy that I met in your comment section to meet me in person?
This is our spicy one.
Okay, do you want to say his ass?
Do you live in the United States?
No, it's not Brock.
Girl, we have a backup plan for you.
Oh my God.
He's too Canadian for me.
I'm sorry.
He might be on.
I know a girl that'll do it for a really low fee, okay?
You're an American supremacist.
Who's the guy?
Do you want to tell us on this?
Or do you want to send it to me and DM?
You can do that, too.
Oh, my gosh.
No, I don't want to tell you guys who it is. Cause I'm going to like respect his privacy.
Cause he's not like an active person on here.
So I don't even know how we met, but we've been talking for like a year now.
Oh my God.
Wait, so you met him on in like in my comments or you met him in a Twitter space of mine
or how'd you guys meet?
In your comments.
So I commented on one of your posts and then he made a comment on it.
And it was a, it was a comment about me being single and still looking for someone.
So it's weird how it ended up.
Yeah, no, I've been talking to him for a year now, but I can't get him to FaceTime me.
And I can't get him to meet me in person either.
Oh, that's weird though that he hasn't FaceTimed him.
I don't think I'm getting catfished, guys. I've talked to him on the phone.
Is there a flag button?
Like a red flag button?
Why wouldn't he FaceTime you?
Like what is his excuse every time?
I don't know.
It probably goes all the way back to the beginning
when I told him what my deal breakers were.
And I think he
possesses one of the deal breakers.
And maybe he's self-conscious
And I hope he's not listening to this at all. Wait, are your deal breakers. And maybe self-conscious about it. And I hope you're not listening to this.
Wait, are your deal breakers like a bunch of like,
you got to be 6'1 and...
Yeah, what are your deal breakers?
No, mine are so simple.
It's like you can't be like a poor conversationalist.
Like I can't always be the one leading the conversation.
And you have to have good teeth and, like, good hygiene.
But good teeth can be fixed, right?
And I feel like I don't have another one.
But aside from that, like, no, I'm so simple.
I feel like good teeth can be fixed.
Funny is nice.
There's things.
You can put the braces on or whatever.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, some things can't be fixed, though.
And then good hygiene can be fixed.
Like, mech mouth or something like that, you know?
Yeah, good hygiene.
You go into the shower thing, and then you scrub,
and then you have good hygiene.
I mean, yeah, but you can
still have good hygiene and, like, still be a
stinky person. Yeah.
But, like, okay, so if he's avoiding doing a FaceTime
with you, and you assume that he has one of your
deal-breakers, like, shitty teeth or something,
then are you saying that you would be willing to overlook
it for him? Because you're, or like, I don't know.
Maybe you can safely assume he has bad teeth.
But if you, yeah, if you've been talking for over a year,
are you at the point where you're like, oh, we have such a bond that,
you know what?
I don't need you to have perfect teeth.
It's okay.
Uh, I mean, teeth can be bought.
You know what I mean?
You can get the gold teeth too, right? We're going to get him veneers. Yeah, exactly. I mean, teeth can be bought. You know what I mean? Yeah, you can get the gold teeth too, right?
We're going to get them veneers.
Yeah, exactly.
I mean, they're expensive.
But it's like, I don't know.
Can I say that?
I don't know.
Because it's also like we haven't met in person.
So it's like, yeah, we do great, like, talking on the phone and texting and stuff.
But what's it actually going to be like in person?
I have a question for you.
Yeah, well, have you seen the show Love is Blind?
Yeah, of course.
Yes, I love it.
I love that show too.
So, you know, there's all these people that they talk to each other
and everything's great and they love each other so much.
And then they see each other for the first time.
They're like, ugh.
That's my favorite part.
And then I don't watch after that.
Yeah, well, after that is boring anyway.
They're just like, and now we're going to get married in 30 days
for no apparent reason.
And for some reason, we haven't told our parents about it so they're like what you went
on a show it's like why don't you tell your parents you're going on a show it's like surprise
we're engaged we're gonna get married for this show uh where there's been like two successful
relationships out of 50 and yeah and there's some contract where we can't say certain things, I'm assuming. But anyway,
so I so my general thought is, it's not actually that or I shouldn't say it's not that hard. But
when you're in a fantasy, and both people are in a fantasy, it's more easy to fall in love with the
fantasy. So you're like, you can look like anything and it's like you you get
me and you know there's like no barriers no real life to it and so I feel like I feel like if people
want to stay in the fantasy that's when they don't want to move to the next step that like I don't
want to uh yeah take pictures I don't want to meet you actually I just want I don't want to keep what we have um but it's you
know right that's what I said I was like do you just like enjoy like texting all the time yeah
like it's cool like if you just want to be pen pals like I'm fine with that but like you have a
girl actually like here willing to meet you yeah so in person so I don't know is his intent clearly
is it clearly romantic or is he is he actually fine with just being friends?
Or are you guys clearly talking about like your potential romantic compatibility?
Yeah, tell us all the conversations you have.
Just give everything.
I mean, we talk about everything because we text literally all day.
It's not working.
I'm not working.
So it's like eventually you kind of just talk about everything.
But I mean, it's like, no eventually you kind of just talk about everything but I mean
it's like no you can't really talk seriously about the future when you're not really even
willing to meet somebody in person you know yeah yeah I mean it's just fantasy based at this point
because you like him like are you not dating other people because you're you've grown attached
to him because I feel like that's when it would get dangerous to where it's like then it would
feel like you're wasting your time on this person.
Like if you're fine with just being pen pals and you guys are friends,
you guys chat here and there, I think that's fine.
But it would be concerning to me if I was getting emotionally invested and thought that this might be like a person that I might end up with
and I stopped dating other people.
Because I think that's when you might just be wasting your time.
If he's not even willing to escalate this to a FaceTime after a year,
that's like, that is a massive red flag for me.
I don't like that.
Red flag, right?
Don't get me wrong.
There's been times where I was like, I'm sorry, I can't talk to you anymore.
Like, I've given ultimatums.
It just doesn't work.
But question for you, Jessie.
No, I would say no.
I never close myself off to something else, but I don't leave my apartment, like, ever.
So it's like meeting anyone anyways is's like oh are you personally worried nice just
having somebody that fills that time are you personally worried about losing it too
out of curiosity like if if you guys do have the face time and either of you are like wait a minute
like would that be really really hurtful are you scared of that or not really
yeah that would be so disappointing i mean you don't talk to somebody for a year
and then you like invest all that time and then it just doesn't work. You know what I mean?
I would still be willing to be his friend, but then, and then it kind of comes down to like, oh, is it going to be awkward now?
Yeah, it will.
Yeah, and I feel like it would kind of stop you from like developing a real relationship with someone else if you had this thing going on in the background where you like kind of have feelings for this guy that you'd still talk to on, I feel like that would impede like you developing
a real relationship outside of this. And also I feel like it's not actually good to just feel
safe and comfortable in your home where you're not actively meeting other people. Like if this
guy just makes you, he fills a void for you. So you don't feel like you have to actively date and
go on even like dating apps or go and meet new people. And like, cause he's kind of fulfilling
those needs, but it's not going anywhere. i think that is definitionally kind of wasting your
your time saying in like in comfortability it sounds so unhealthy when you say it out loud
yeah yeah that's what do you think he would do if you're like you know what i'm just gonna
put myself on these dating apps and you told him that like what do you think he would do oh he would probably
stop talking to me oh well then then he he's that that sucks i think because after a year like if
you've told him like i really want to meet you i'd really love to talk to you in person i'd really
love to facetime with you if he's just like no no can't makes excuses whatever after a whole year
i think it's to the point where it's like okay i am gonna go on dating apps at this point because
like you've given him a chance and not to like make this into some unhealthy
manipulative ultimatum, but it's just like actually just genuinely for your, for your,
for your sake. I think that you should, I don't know, like for me, I love love. I, I like really,
I don't know, before I had a boyfriend, I really wanted to find my person. So I just,
I want you to find your person. So I don't want him to like hold you back from finding your person so i love that yeah i think that you should really i'm open to and i'm looking
in comment sections yes guys i love i love love so like if we could set anyone up from uh our spaces
or on our social medias that would make me so happy it would be so funny if we were more successful
matchmaking on crappy advice than like uh love is blind you're going to make me single right now
so i don't know about that well if you'd like to if you'd like to specify what you're interested in
and i don't know if you want to sell yourself for one minute, feel free. Yeah, you have one minute. The floor is yours.
The floor is yours.
Okay, 34 single red hair.
That's all I got.
Do you want kids?
Okay, okay.
Well, because I was going to say, I think that the time crunch thing would be a bigger issue if you wanted kids.
I guess it's a little bit less pressing, but still, you only have one life.
So, I mean, it's still important.
I mean, I still want to meet somebody while i look good you know what i mean
yeah i don't want to like find somebody when i'm like 55 like let's be real yeah totally totally
we just we just we just made spaceman
brock brock i just have to mute everybody But I do appreciate the sound
I do appreciate the
Careless whisper
Oh I was just gonna say
If anyone in the audience is
Interested in a
34 year old homebody
There's one on stage
Slide into her DMs I guess
You made it sound way less appealing
at least like send me a comment first like don't just go for the oh don't don't slide into her dms
sorry that's that's too much uh find her in mine or tiffany's comment section i think is yeah it's
pretty common i low-key want to start a matchmaking service I'm just like obsessed with love to me it is like
the point of life and I'm like yeah I low-key want to do that that's not a bad name obsessed
with love yeah I love love I'm so obsessed with love I love me Jesse listen to your uncle space
man you deserve a higher form of love than what you're already experiencing with this guy. Thank you. Good job. Go get it. Go get it.
Shout out.
Okay. Thank you. You guys are hyping me up.
Like I feel so bad for him, but like I feel really good for him.
You're like, I'm so hyped up. I'm going to dump him now.
Thanks you guys. You've changed my life.
Honestly, yeah. I think you're being too patient with him.
Well, I just, for me, like, as I've gotten older,
I've found the most important thing is just to set boundaries
and just be very explicit in what you want and what you're willing to tolerate
rather than just kind of taking what you get
because then you kind of go down the river and then at some point you're like,
wait, I'm unhappy.
So if you can look within yourself and be like, I need this.
I would like this to happen.
We need to progress or whatever. That's really important to you. I think that boundary should
just be said like, and stated. Gotta set those affirmations. Gotta let them know. So basically
give them the ultimatums and stick to the ultimatum that I set. I think so too. And I
think you're gonna feel like lonely afterwards if it does have to end. But I just, yeah, I don't
know if you want something romantic, I just don't think it'd be healthy for you to carry that into like i don't
know if you were actually going on other dates and still talking to him i think it would be
um i don't know i think it would impede your ability to find a real relationship probably
in my in my yeah yeah thanks so much jesse that was a great question and a fun yeah that was fun
jesse come back feel free to come back next time and give us updates on what's going on. Yeah, and tell us all your conversations.
Everything that was said.
I'll give you guys a play-by-play.
All right.
We need a number between one and nine, Jessie.
All right.
That is Jan.
Jan has an AI face, I believe, and a computer in front of his AI face.
Jan, how's it going?
Is it Jan or Jan?
I have no idea.
I see Jan is based in Slovenia.
Slovenia is actually sick as hell.
I went to Slovenia and I was very impressed. I went to Slovenia and I was very impressed.
I went to Bled.
Jan, hello.
It's called Bled.
Slovenia is beautiful.
But the longer we wait, it seems like Jan might be a fake person.
Maybe you are just an AI person with no voice.
Sorry, Jan, you're going to be removed.
I'll just pick another.
I think this guy's been waiting for a really long time.
Doge takeover.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
How's it going?
What's up, Billy?
What's up, Tiffany?
Guys, I didn't know I i was gonna be fully obsessed with uh
finding out what happens with jesse in the future i know we're invested in brock and jesse and i i
feel actually invested in everybody's story that came and spoke i actually it's face man i want to
see space man like you know post pictures from the olympics although i don't know if i'll still
be on this app in 2028 or no you will stay on the app and stay signed lovely and i will say to anyone who's listening
i think i'm really enjoying doing the whole like relationship advice angle so anyone if you have
love life problems let's talk them out uh anyway sorry those are my favorite also yeah they're fun
they're fun but yes doge takeover do you have any questions for us
yeah for sure i got questions and i want some crappy advice but it's not a relationship
about um because i'm married and i'm holding my baby so if you cry immediately good for you goals
goals yeah um yeah so i'm you know obviously a doge doge I love Dogecoin a lot.
I see that Polymarket is up here.
And I follow DogeOS pretty closely.
And I see that you guys are both accepting creator fees from Anoncoin projects.
We're going to have to remove you.
We don't talk about coins.
All right. Let us bring in jason notary i know i feel like
people want us to say the name of coins or whatever and we're like oh we don't we don't
promote this is annoying these fucking mean coins yeah so yeah sorry it says literally in the rules
do not shill if you're up here to shill your. It's very annoying. No one cares. Yeah.
Jason. Yeah.
And we will start blocking those people.
Hi, Jason.
Are you here?
Jason looks like a real person.
I'm like, is there something?
Is it just some sort of lag on X?
Because it feels like there's such a high percentage of the accounts that are just not.
It's hard when you request for a while because you might go and
oh like go do something in the bathroom you know he might be like pooping and it's like oh god
like we're just gonna publicly we're just gonna publicly humiliate anyone who takes too long to
respond like oh he's definitely taking a shit jason is definitely taking a shit yeah or you
know or it could be with his kid. It could be something like
that and something nicer.
I don't know.
It could be, but let's go with the worst case
scenario. Sorry, Jason.
Alright, we're going to try one more.
This is Megan.
Hi, Megan. DeMarco.
How are you doing, Megan?
Hello. Hello, Megan. Are you also in the bathroom and or with your child who's right?
Oh, you're here. You're here. I'm trying to get on the mic.
Hi, Megan. Yay. Yay. All right, we'll wait. We'll wait for the mic. Do you guys know Elon?
Sorry? Do you guys know Elon? Sorry?
Do you guys know Elon?
What about him?
I think everyone in this room probably knows Elon Musk.
Like, personally, like, well enough to know who he's in a relationship with?
We're pretty uninterested in that, so do you have a question related to...
No, because I think I'm her.
Yes, I think I'm her. Okay, well No, because I think I'm her. Yes, I think I'm her.
Okay, well, okay.
I think I am her.
Good luck with that.
I'm going to remove...
Good luck with that.
Remove Megan from...
I got a crappy advice question for you guys.
We're going to put that in the rules.
We are not going to talk about Elon Musk's personal life.
Yeah, I don't think speculating on someone else's personal life
that we don't know is uh appropriate
or smart or matters that much uh let's bring sierra i know sierra sierra is cool hi sierra
sierra oh well i mean we'll just leave her up if she's not because we know we know sierra is a
person who says words also i need to take note of these crazy people accounts and block them.
I feel like it's just like, oh, God.
Hi, Sierra.
I don't know if you actually were going to say something.
Oh, Sierra.
I came off to say that, unfortunately, it's like a known troll that comes into spaces and does that.
It might not be a troll, but she does this frequently.
And I wanted to say don't let that disrupt your space also what a amazing partnership going on up here
very much enjoying the conversation thank you thrilled to see the two of you together and
polymarket oh yeah that is so sweet yeah billy is truly one of my first friends from starting
x in 2022 and i'm so happy that our friendship has gone so strong.
And look at how we've evolved.
Look at us go.
Thank you, Sierra.
Yeah, we've gone from hosting this to hosting this.
We've gone from hosting crappy advice all the way to hosting crappy advice.
It's amazing.
What a journey it's been.
Shit posting on Twitter to shit posting on Twitter.
Wow. And I'd like to thank
Look at our evolution.

You're so sweet. If you had anything that you wanted
to say or ask, you feel free.
I have some crappy advice question sure actually so uh as y'all just mentioned you've come pretty full circle but also grown a ton while doing so in
your friendship and both in your career sector but like together uh since doing crappy advice until now and i'm wondering if you have any advice to
anyone on the platform looking to kind of like grow within their niche uh yeah this is a i think
we got this question in a different form in a in a dm right tiffany yeah yeah yeah someone asked
me this too in dm yeah um so i think you both have thoughts about this, but you can go first if you had any thoughts.
Oh, I was going to say you can, but let's see. Personally, with my account, I think that one of the things that grew my account initially was following a story that had continual developments.
So for example, like my initial, the things I posted about initially on my account in 2022 were I was covering Celsius Network and then I began covering FTX.
Some of you might not even know what either of those things are.
It's quite niche.
It's, they're two crypto companies that essentially collapsed in grand fashion.
And I basically was summarizing bankruptcy filings and I was interviewing some people involved with the case.
And I attended a criminal trial
and I covered every single day of the trial.
So I'm just saying this,
obviously I'm not saying everyone should go out there
and cover criminal trials,
but I'm saying that I think people were more willing
and ready to like hit the follow button
when they'd see these posts,
because they were like,
if anyone was interested in keeping up to date
on a specific story,
then like they'd follow
in order to actually see those continual
updates. So for me, that I think was really helpful in growing my account and making people
actually follow rather than just like see one of my posts and like, you know, carry on with their
day. So I think that was one of the main ones for me. And obviously those were really niche
topics. So like I'm not, I wasn't trying to ever appeal to like everybody. And even still,
I think my sense of humor is certainly not appealing to everybody. But yeah, I think like, yeah, just actually just
being authentic and like having a unique voice. I think I personally follow accounts when I think
that they have like a unique voice, a unique take, unique sense of humor or unique set of like a
unique set of knowledge about a specific topic where I actually feel like I'm learning something.
So I don't know.
I think, yeah, try to like double down on whatever makes your voice unique and special.
But yeah, what were you going to say, Billy?
Yeah, I mean, I have a lot of thoughts on this that are probably even contradict each other.
But I think my, well, I'll start with a complaint that I'm not sure you can really grow on this
platform right now with the algorithm being so weird.
You can kind of post whatever you want.
It's kind of like a little grab bag.
You're throwing darts and one of them might hit.
And it doesn't really matter right now who follows you because that's not really a part of the algorithm.
So until they change the algorithm, there's no real advice to growing your account.
It doesn't really matter.
I guess at this point, the advice is try to get a viral hit post and i feel like that's the
only way you get seen right now taking shots on goal for that and like the stuff that goes viral
for me is so random it's like uh it'll be like uh i mean the post today that went viral was like
some some post about some old guy scamming his way into a relationship
or something. And like that just caught on. I'm like, Alright, whatever. Like, I don't
know. I don't know what what gets into the I don't know what grok reads and this like,
Oh, yeah, that's, that's, that's a hit. Let's, let's show this to people. So I have no idea.
But my general advice, and actually, it applies a lot less to you, Sierra, because you're an accomplished person. But my general advice to like, the people that want to start as like, they start with nothing, they're just, you know, like, 20 years old, and they just want to get big on this platform is like, don't try to get big on this platform, try to do something interesting in the real world. And then you can grow on this platform
because you did something interesting
and people know you for that thing that's interesting.
So like Justin Bieber has a lot of followers.
If he wanted to be an X person,
he has a lot of followers,
but people follow Justin Bieber
because he's interesting outside of X.
So I think like growing in your niche,
like that's something if you start to find a community and hopefully they change the algorithm so you are more likely to find your community rather than random viral stuff and have spaces or talk to each other, I think that can get you friends or kind of a little group that can grow.
But I really think off this platform is more interesting for
growing a platform that's an interesting take yeah i mean that is for you like you both of us
basically were just normal people and then we got blown up but my my normal thing like just happened
to you know lightning in a bottle cause all this weird stuff to happen but it wasn't
me it was just like like I was just like hi and then people were like oh Billy's here he's talking
like let's follow him right and then for you you did a bunch of uh I mean it wasn't just like that
you were on this platform and being funny it was that you were following these very interesting
stories at the time and talking about them so I I just feel like, you know, these are the types of things that grow your
account is beyond, you know, making questions that are one line and talking about hot dogs.
No, I'm just kidding. Just kidding, Brock.
So if I may briefly interject, thank you both for answering the question so thoroughly and i
wanted to say to both of you because i've been following you both for a long time and we've
like spoken like not on the timeline and stuff uh tiffany i actually know you because of what
you did with the trials that is how i know you and then it turns out you're also hilarious. But like I forever, my first impression of you was, wow, this person is providing excellent reporting on this case that I'm deeply affected by.
Like that is who I know you to be and you're phenomenal.
That is so sweet.
So sweet. I really appreciate that because I do think that like a lot, like the vast majority of
my current followers probably have no idea that I ever covered any sort of like criminal trials
or interview people. So I do appreciate when people found me earlier on because that was
really hard work. Like I, like honestly, I'm not going to pretend that right now I'm doing much
hard work. I'm like, it's a lot of memes. It's a lot of silly stuff. But yeah, that, that coverage
was like really grueling and intense and like going to trial every day and trying to summarize things where like I don't have a legal background and I'm trying to like wrap my mind around these difficult topics and explain them in a concise way.
And I really appreciate that.
Thank you so much, Sierra.
It was the most impressive display of citizen's journalism that I have seen to date.
And I think that you really showed like your
initial following and people who know that about you like oh look how much information we can get
from having access to the internet on social platforms when people are passionate about a
thing and I am gonna wrap this up in one second and just say that's what I really I follow you
because of your authenticity too the things that you are passionate about you are passionate about them and you're
also hilarious you have shown me that it's okay to talk about serious stuff and sometimes be funny
and just be full on authentically you online which i think is the best way to grow an audience
nobody should be growing an audience for the sake of growing an audience. It's like, what are you going to do with it? That's beautiful.
You have to be aware of your impact. And you guys are great examples.
I feel like there's accounts that they don't even have a name or whatever. There's like
meme something and they just post memes that they stole off Reddit or whatever. And it's like,
okay, I guess you're there. You can get money from the X platform for views.
But what are you doing?
You have no influence.
You can't just go from that and be like,
actually, I'm kind of mad about the stuff in the world.
People are like, shut up.
Post memes.
What are you doing?
So I don't think that's what this platform,
I mean, granted, it's for whatever people use it for.
But I think the point of Twitter or X, originally Twitter and what's become X,
is to be the authentic you, to say your truth and have fun and meet people.
And that's much more interesting and kind of the point of all of this
than just trying to grow your account and looking at numbers
and complaining that the follow for follow isn't working and all this other stuff that like, who cares is what's the point? What
are you doing it for? Like chasing numbers is one thing, but like you want followers that like you
for who you are. And, uh, I find it to be the biggest compliment when someone follows me and
has no idea that I made Dogecoin. They're just like, like, Oh, I thought you were funny. I'm
like, that's awesome. Like, thank you for following me without having any idea that I made Dogecoin. They're just like, oh, I thought you were funny. I'm like, that's awesome. Thank you for
following me without having any idea who I was
for me in my real life, it doesn't
matter that I made Dogecoin either. I'm just
a normal person.
That's how I met you. I had no idea.
I knew you for a long time and I had no idea.
Aw, Sierra, I love that. That was
really heartwarming.
Like, that was a very nice, like,
I don't even know if we're done,
but that was,
it would be a good one to end on,
but I'm just saying that.
It would be a great one to end on,
but we do have one more person
that I'd like to bring up
just because I know.
Oh yeah, I'm not in a rush.
I'm not in a rush to end.
We can totally go longer,
but I just want to thank you, Sierra,
and also just say that, like,
I think that we made a lot of good points
in terms of, like,
I think a lot of people do ask, like,
how do we get more followers? And people really do romanticize and idealize, like, what life I
think is like having a certain amount of followers. And it's like, I don't know, I think both Billy
and I are just like, we're just normal fucking people. And I think, yeah, like, I think the most
valuable things have been, like, the actual friendships, like our friendship and stuff.
Sorry, what were you going to say? I just think a lot of people think it's really cool and you have a lot of influence but you
mostly just get targeted by annoying people and it's just like you try to say your stuff and some
dipshit will will complain and yell at you and then like other people will be like oh you're not
talking about this particular thing that i care about you asshole you must be satan and it's just
like shut the fuck up so yeah i think if you get more followers you'll just be more misanthropic because you'll
just see how stupid people are totally but I actually think you know yeah sorry I mean this
it's not my crappy advice would be to like go for it and get a ton of followers because I don't
think it's worth it I think it's just it's like a thing that I just kind of fell into and I I wouldn't care if I left yeah I mean I
think there's a lot of pros and cons I'm not going to complain about the fact that it's nice to be
able to make income uh on social media like that's amazing but also I think that my actual experience
of the app and the experience of being on Twitter was much better when I was a much smaller account.
I feel like when your account is much bigger, you're definitely a target for way more constant
hate and criticism. Anything you post, I know I'm going to get really angry people. At this point,
it doesn't really impact me too much anymore. I'm pretty callous about it. But I think that there
was a period in which it was quite jarring. It was quite jarring to see people get so angry over
silly jokes or whatever and um
i don't know it was much more pleasant people are rooting people root for the underdogs people
root for the little guys and once you're it's not like i'm some massive multi-million account but
it's like i don't know i do get way more like heat and hate now but um anyway sorry yeah so you know
we're just complaining yes yes yes sorry about think that people don't really know if they've never gone viral.
Because you can see it in just one viral.
Oh, that's true, yeah.
But it'll be the anger you can.
And then if you have any sort of imagination, you can, like, you know, expand that out to what if my whole account was this?
And I imagine that is what it's like.
Which must be, like, I wouldn't understate the receiving of the hate.
People online are mean sometimes.
It's crazy.
But the great people are like great.
It's definitely, definitely trade-offs.
But I wouldn't say I wouldn't change it for the world.
But I would say that I'm not unhappy or anything.
It's just is what it is.
Thanks so much.
Thanks so much for everything you said, Sierra.
And we really appreciate you.
So lovely.
And then we'll probably end on Sir Doge, who just came up.
Again, I know Sir Doge is a human person and not a rando.
Hi, Sir Doge.
I trust that Sir Doge will say words.
How's it going?
Congrats on the show show this is really cool
I like listening to you guys
we like listening to you and your cool
Scottish? Irish? what are you?
no I don't really have anything to say really
I was going to say could you please get dogecoin to pump please sir that't really have anything to say really i was gonna say um could you please get
dogecoin to pump please sir that's what i wanted to say um oh let me let me kick you off the stage
yeah that's yeah um but yeah i was going to complain about the algorithm and ask how to go
viral but you already um you already summed that up well yeah i mean so you you're you have a show
right now and i think uh you're doing a lot of stuff.
You and your co-show host are doing a lot of stuff to try to clip it and get content out there and get it viral.
And I feel like at some earlier point in time, X was pushing video content, and I don't think it's doing that right now.
So I don't know. It depends on what the algorithm pushes we are at the mercy of it you know yes right now
it seems like it's what is it articles articles are winners right now like i feel like they're
just constantly pushing some new thing and i'm like i'm not i don't have the energy to hop on
that train i'm sorry yeah as long as long as you just say the most generic 8 000 word thing of like you can do it just do generic self-help stuff that
that is not no but for me i honestly think it's just it is political slop and yeah it's funny
because i was like i mean some of my posts were just so apocalyptically bad like today i was like
holy shit it's like the worst algorithm
ever but i was okay let me see what's far out and i saw just just those you know generic um
generic ai like generated shit that somebody just exported from fucking instagram or whatever
and um like with the most generic caption of like you know the the the the quintessential
caption of just uh what is it um oh you know this is why two sticks around
cost a thousand dollars and uh i posted that and then i was like oh that's the only post that i
did that i posted today that got like any traction which is like i was like okay let me let me this
is a litmus test now and it's like okay that is yeah basically that's a good point because my
my post that did well today was some like i don't even know where it was from. It was just some, like, stupid story that was probably, like, made for clickbait on Instagram or something.
And I posted that as a, like, this was kind of funny.
And then it took off as, like, well, that doesn't teach me anything good.
And I know Brock does a bunch of queries like that where I think Brock, he'll like put a bunch of one line questions and not even like be at his computer when he does it.
They're just like scheduled posts.
And then he'll like come back to it and be like, well, those did real well.
Set it and forget it.
I've never done that.
I need to start scheduling my posts.
Like I feel like being chronically online makes me feel mentally ill. And I'm just, yeah, that's actually way smarter. Yeah, I never done that i need to start scheduling my posts like i feel like being chronically online makes me feel mentally ill and i'm just yeah that that's actually way smarter
yeah i've done that uh i went to um what's that place oh or what's that place is el capitan and
and half dome uh yeah yosemite i went to yosemite so i didn't have internet for a few days and i
just did a bunch of uh of scheduled posts and i came back to it I'm like oh not bad did they do okay they did fine um so I don't know in the last couple days
and they did bad like so much better than my oh my god that it like it's a little bit hurts you
yeah yeah so that's the crappy advice but then I can post my real-time stuff in between yeah
and like you know I guess whatever you gotta do so people can see your stuff
when you have something to see.
I might try this.
Post slop,
crap from Instagram.
And you too can
You too can grow your account.
It's literally like a fucking
like crapshoot at this point.
It's just like throwing darts
and I don't know what's gonna work
at this point anymore.
The algorithm's so weird.
But we'll see. We'll see.
Maybe it'll, Rock will be like, wait a minute, we actually want content that feeds XAI that
isn't pointless so we can grow and become smarter, but I'm not sure.
Did you have anything else you wanted to say, Serdoge, before we end this space?
No, I mean, I suppose I want to end off with some optimism. Let's be
optimistic, hopefully. I mean, it can't get
any better than it. It can't get any worse
than it is now, can it? That's true.
I mean, that's the joke, can it?
Yeah, that's the mean.
But, you know, I'm going to be optimistic. Hang in there, it gets worse.
Yeah. This is the worst
day of your life. The worst day
of your life so far.
So far. Yeah, well, I don't know.
Just keep going.
And if it sucks, you don't have to do it.
None of us have to do it.
We're all here with our own free will.
And the world is much bigger than an app.
But this app has also brought me a lot of joy.
And, you know, basically like half these people on stage
have met so many cool people on this app.
And, you know, that part I wouldn't change for the world.
I totally agree.
I feel like it did shit on this app a little bit,
but it has drastically changed and improved my life.
And yeah, I probably should shit on it less
because I love X.
love x i do love x don't love the algorithm right now but i love x yeah all i just want is when
I do love X.
Don't love the algorithm right now, but I love X.
whatever i post to get a billion views yes and and 25 000 per post yes from from x.com that's all i
want so i don't know why that's not true because i have a lot of followers and that should just happen. I'm entitled to it.
And I know,
is that too much to ask for?
thank you so much,
everybody for coming up and speaking. And even thanks to those who didn't get to say much or at least making the
effort and requesting,
we appreciate all the content.
This has been really,
really fun. And and also of course
thank you to polymarket for sponsoring the spaces uh as you can tell we enjoy polymarket quite a bit
so we do appreciate everybody and that was so fun again in the future yeah yes we'll do this in two
weeks fun oh my god i just like waved to the fucking okay we're gonna do this this in two weeks. Oh my God. I just like waved to the fucking.
We're going to do this again in two weeks.
We love you guys.
This was so fun.
Oh yeah. I could do this,
this wave.
Bye. Thank you.
