EVERY SPOKEN WORD

  1. 0:00 – 15:00

    As much as I…

    1. CW

      As much as I don't like Gary Vaynerchuk and I'm certain that he's going to die young because he doesn't sleep enough, he, uh ... which, like, tell me that's not the truth, by the way.

    2. YF

      No, he, he looks so tired.

    3. JF

      Yeah.

    4. YF

      Like, he's just shot.

    5. CW

      Constantly (censored) .

    6. JF

      So in terms of comprehending a trillion compared to a million, a million seconds is 11 days, a trillion seconds is 36,000 years.

    7. CW

      What's your thoughts on people's criticisms about Bezos becoming the first trillionaire?

    8. JF

      I mean, that, well, as we've just discussed, is mental.

    9. CW

      Sans one Achilles since the last time that you spoke to you him.

    10. JF

      Yeah.

    11. CW

      I made a meal of it, I think he would say. By way of scaling the what happened question, I can just say it once and then link people to this podcast, so ... Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back. I'm joined by Johnny and Yusef from propanefitness.com.

    12. YF

      Do you ever say, "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls?"

    13. CW

      Uh, no, because this is an adult show for adult people. But we're also joined by-

    14. YF

      You kicked the explicit rating.

    15. CW

      Yeah, yeah, of course it is. That's the number one reason. Not having the explicit rating, correct, is the number one reason shows get taken down off the Apple Podcasts store.

    16. JF

      Wow.

    17. YF

      Just accidentally slip in a, a C-bomb or something and then-

    18. CW

      Yeah.

    19. YF

      ... that's it, done.

    20. CW

      Oh, this is made for children. Um, Johnny's brought his dog. Johnny, can we see your dog? Can we see Dexter? Look at you.

    21. JF

      All black features.

    22. CW

      Yeah, he is.

    23. JF

      Can't see his face until he's looking to the side and then you're like, "Oh right, that's his face."

    24. CW

      That's a dog.

    25. JF

      Yeah.

    26. CW

      Yeah.

    27. JF

      There he is.

    28. CW

      You're right, it is cinnamon.

    29. JF

      It is cinnamon.

    30. CW

      (laughs)

  2. 15:00 – 30:00

    Videoing him. …

    1. YF

      (laughs) And his dad's just like... Just filming him.

    2. CW

      Videoing him.

    3. YF

      And it was like that. Like, I was just smack talking to the nurses, like...

    4. JF

      I would honestly-

    5. CW

      I would pay-

    6. JF

      I would love to see that footage.

    7. CW

      ... so much money.

    8. JF

      I think that would be the funniest thing 'cause you've just had ball surgery and you're just being unpleasant to people.

    9. CW

      "Listen, bruv, I'll wreck you yet. I'll get you, man."

    10. YF

      No, I, to be fair, I don't think it was, I, I wasn't being aggressive with them. I was, um, just very delirious.

    11. CW

      I'm fucking telling you, man.

    12. JF

      This, you should have a full-time cameraman following you around 'cause the stuff that would get captured would be priceless.

    13. CW

      That's Gary V. Become Gary V and make-

    14. YF

      He must have a ful- ... Oh, you don't-

    15. JF

      Yeah, I think he does before DRock is ...

    16. CW

      All that happens, all that Gary V's content is-

    17. YF

      He just lives his life.

    18. CW

      ... is just him existing, being Gary Vaynerchuk-

    19. JF

      (laughs)

    20. CW

      ... and him having a man with a lens pointed at him all the time.

    21. YF

      Probably, probably quite a low-effort life if you're just doing what you do normally.

    22. CW

      Oh, hugely. There's, there's, as much as I don't like Gary Vaynerchuk and I'm certain that he's gonna die young because he doesn't sleep enough, like, he, uh ... Which, like, tell me that's not the truth, by the way.

    23. YF

      No, he, he looks so tired. Yeah. Like, he's just shot.

    24. CW

      Constantly fucked. Yeah.

    25. YF

      So 'cause I, I'd never seen any of his content before until, like, you asked about him the other day. Or, uh, George asked about him, and, um, he just happened to be live. And I quickly went onto the live and he sat there on Skype just like ...

    26. JF

      Oh, really?

    27. YF

      I was just like, "Man, this guy needs to go and get some sleep." He's too busy grinding.

    28. CW

      Using video.

    29. JF

      George shent- sent a vid- shared a video that's like a parody of-

    30. CW

      Yeah, yeah.

  3. 30:00 – 45:00

    When, when, when Rogan…

    1. YF

    2. CW

      When, when, when Rogan asked him that and he was like, "They're an attack vector." Like that is a man that's just on a different, he's in a different world to everybody else-

    3. YF

      On a separate level.

    4. CW

      Like I have to have a Tesla for obvious reasons, for testing.

    5. YF

      That, that's why his opinions-

    6. CW

      I, I'm glad that I'm renting.

    7. YF

      ... on aliens and living in a simulation and stuff, I'm like, "Do you know what? He's probably thought about it."

    8. CW

      Yeah. (laughs)

    9. YF

      He's done the work hasn't he?

    10. CW

      There's an interview with him where he's like ...

    11. JF

      ... he talks about how he's like frustrated that he won't probably, he probably won't be alive when we, by the time we get to Mars.

    12. CW

      Is it gonna take that long?

    13. JF

      It's crazy to have, it's crazy to have such a, s- so many levels of Maslow's hierarchy sorted that the thing you think about on a daily basis is like building roads under the surface of the Earth to sort out congestion and getting the human race to Mars.

    14. CW

      There's a video that's pretty cool for, if people wanna watch it, where him and Jay Leno get in a prototype of the Cybertruck. Have you seen this?

    15. JF

      Uh, no.

    16. CW

      So they, in LA, Elon Musk turns up outside with a Cybertruck. Jay Leno's, it's like Jay Leno's Car Garage thing. He, he, it's kind of like Top Gear but on YouTube. It's pretty good. Um, and then they take one of the tunnels, like Boring Company tunnels, for a mile, in the Cybertruck. And then, it like, they just start in the middle of some car park and then arrive in whatever is like SpaceX's, uh, offices essentially. Take this huge elevator up by like 500 feet when they get to the end of the tunnel.

    17. JF

      And is that real, that tunnel?

    18. CW

      Yes.

    19. JF

      Right.

    20. CW

      Well, I mean, what do you mean?

    21. JF

      I didn't know he'd actually built any, like there is a legit tunnel that-

    22. CW

      Actual tunnel-

    23. JF

      ... Elon Musk of.

    24. CW

      ... which is a couple of, maybe a mile long or a couple of miles long-

    25. JF

      Right.

    26. CW

      ... under LA. You drive in on one end and get an elevator, a car elevator up at the other end and it actually happens and it fits a Cybertruck in.

    27. JF

      I thought he wanted to like-

    28. CW

      You'd have to be on their legal team, wouldn't you?

    29. JF

      Oh, God.

    30. CW

      Like to, to get the, whatever planning permission you need t- to bore a- Apparently you don't, apparently you don't need any.

  4. 45:00 – 1:00:00

    Yes. …

    1. JF

      cinemas in the UK-

    2. CW

      Yes.

    3. JF

      ... and buy all of the pick 'n' mix.

    4. CW

      Yes.

    5. JF

      And maybe you'd have to do all of... but it immediately you run into a- an operational problem which is employing that many people that quickly, making sure that they are, you know-

    6. YF

      Trained.

    7. JF

      ... operating to a certain structure.

    8. YF

      AYE, and-

    9. JF

      It's not even that. It's not even that. It's like how do you ensure that like Keith in Glasgow is doing what you asked him to do?

    10. CW

      Commission.

    11. JF

      Because if Keith, if he's... commission.

    12. YF

      You have to... but then how do you, how do you police the commission?

    13. JF

      Exactly.

    14. YF

      Oh.

    15. JF

      That's trouble.

    16. CW

      You know that there was no one born with the name Keith in 2019?

    17. JF

      (laughs)

    18. YF

      Was it Keith? I thought it was Nigel in 20-

    19. CW

      '18.

    20. YF

      ... 2016 or somethin'. 2018.

    21. CW

      Yeah.

    22. YF

      Wow. Nobody.

    23. CW

      Nigels and Keiths are a dying breed, man.

    24. YF

      It's not a very baby name.

    25. CW

      (laughs)

    26. YF

      Oh, little Keith. Like... (laughs)

    27. JF

      Yeah. You grow into that name, don't you? You become a Keith.

    28. CW

      Bruce.

    29. YF

      We had a guy called Keith-

    30. JF

      You become a Bruce as well.

  5. 1:00:00 – 1:02:45

    Exactly. …

    1. JF

    2. CW

      Exactly.

    3. JF

      I would leave... I think I would leave it in based on my-

    4. CW

      Leave it in?

    5. JF

      ... absolute zero understanding of any of this. I feel like that's... My knee-jerk response would be better in than out.

    6. CW

      (laughs)

    7. JF

      Well, no. Initially far better out than in. But once it's in, it feels like it'd be better in than out.

    8. CW

      Fine.

    9. JF

      (laughs)

    10. CW

      That's the only thing that you think should stay in as well, isn't it? Everything else in life is just a series of, uh-

    11. JF

      Getting it out.

    12. CW

      ... buildups to you being able to get something out of you, which is the-

    13. JF

      Well, no, 'cause it's like food-

    14. CW

      ... the greatest pleasure a man can have.

    15. JF

      Food, food and water. That's nice to go in.

    16. CW

      It's also nice to come out.

    17. YF

      I'm sure there was a podcast where we talked about this.

    18. CW

      Yeah.

    19. JF

      Or maybe it was just me and Yusuf.

    20. YF

      Where Jonny... Yeah, it was, it was Jonny's philosophy on, like, things going in your body versus things going, coming out of your body.

    21. JF

      Well, the idea that everything coming out feels nice.

    22. YF

      Ah, yeah. That's it.

    23. CW

      It does.

    24. JF

      There's very, very little. Suppose apart from a cough, but that's not really coming out of you, is it, per se?

    25. YF

      It's attempting to get something out.

    26. CW

      I'd say yawns are coming out of you.

    27. YF

      That's -

    28. JF

      Yawns are nice.

    29. CW

      Anyway.

    30. JF

      And then Yusuf's point was, like, things going in are nice. And then we, then we clarified that m- most things could be put in if s- with someone who had, like, the right tools-
