EPISODE 527 : Brain Drain
Q: What do you think led to the boredom that created mass hysteria in our society?
Boredom is a self-perpetuating, unconscious form of brainwashing created by a world totalitarian government based on money, which leads to dangerous consequences.
EPISODE 513 : John Brennan Interview
Q: How do you feel about AI? Do you hate it? Do you love it?
I have a complicated idea about it because it's, like, okay, no matter what, it's coming. Like, even if you're angry with it, if you hate it, it's here, and it's here to stay, and it's not going away.
EPISODE 513 : John Brennan Interview
Q: Are you a believer in like ghosts and stuff? Do you think there's ghosts out there?
Yeah, I think everything's possible, but I do think residual effects are puny human brains because we can't really know at this point.
EPISODE 510 : Yellow? Who's There?
