um, I'll tell you a claim that I thought was pretty wild. It was the Tesla guy whose name escapes me. What do I think? Mosh Nash? Elon Musk. Elon Musk was saying that he made a claim on a podcast that the birthing rate was way down with young people and that basically the world population was going to nosedive and that we were all going to go extinct. Rather than it being some big nuclear war, he thought we were just going to go extinct because everyone was going to stop having babies. And I got to be honest with you, that had been one of the dumbest things I've ever heard in my life. You know, he goes like, That's, we're just gonna go out with like a whimper. It's like, You don't think when people notice that we're becoming extinct that people won't then have babies? Maybe did you ever think why they're not having babies? Maybe they're not having babies because they don't want to bring them into this [__] up world if the

population went down significantly, and we could reverse what the [__] we're doing to the planet. Maybe more people would feel like there's a reason to bring a life into the world. I don't think that everyone's just going to sit around going, Well, no one's having babies. Looks like we're all going to go extinct. I have a new theory, okay? Smart people who go on podcasts are not that smart. All right? They're campaigning to be smart. That Neil DeGrasse Tyson, I mean, when is he looking through a [__] microscope? Every time you see the guy, he's [__] on a podcast. I'm on a podcast. I went to summer school. I'm a [__]. Right? And then somebody else, Oh, look at me. I'm gonna make a [__]. I'm gonna make a [__] spaceship that goes to Mars. You're gonna do it? You're gonna sit down and do it? Or do

you have the ability to organize and delegate it where the really smart people that are making it don't have time to go on a podcast. All these doctors and going on. Shouldn't they be like, What? Hey, some comedian wants you to go on his part. I'm too busy curing cancer or trying to. I don't have time to go on and try to explain what I'm doing to somebody with a high school education. [Laughter] I don't know, but I'm dumb. Maybe like that's what it is. I don't think like doctors who are on TV are that good at their job. I don't think therapists that host their own talk show. I don't think they really give a [__] about the mental health of other people. I just don't. I don't think they do. There's just something about it where

it's just like, shouldn't you be like going out there? Like, I'm not saying all of it. Like, I think chefs that are on TV are good at what they do. I'm not saying that they're the best, you know. I mean, I'm in this business. I know how that works. Just because you're on TV doesn't mean you're the best at what you do. Maybe you're the best at the business, or maybe you caught a break, or maybe you know somebody. But um, that whole [ __ ] theory that like people are just gonna stop having babies and like that's why we're going to go to extinct. It has got to be the dumbest thing uh I've ever heard in my life. Because if that was actually the case, then there really wouldn't be an abortion debate because there'd be no [ __ ] babies to abort, right? Um, now listen, I know I don't have a shiny face of my own car company, but I'm just gonna say I don't think that that's

the smartest theory out there. Oh my god, shots fired. All right. [Music] I'm not even upset with Elon Musk. I'm just upset with other mouth-breathing morons like myself that we never question people like that. Well, you just kind of sit there going like, or at least I don't. I just go, Well, that guy's really successful. He must know things. And then once in a while, like, Well, if he's really that successful, what the [__] is he doing talking to people like me? Oh, who gives a [__] um.
