that. We don't mention the part where we make you willing. And then we have to touch you by the way. That's like the greatest unspoken secret of hypnosis is that it's sort of always happening. Like you can't turn it off. It won't matter if you know.

And the swinging watch thing, that's not part of hypnosis. That doesn't buy you anything. The ladies of Coffee with Scott Adams calendar coming soon. That would be a big hit. You had a hypnotist as a roommate in college. That's where you learned your love of cleaning and doing dishes. Did you now? I need to know more about that. But I'd love to know. I'd love to know if you volunteered to be hypnotized so you would enjoy chores or did your hypnotist hypnotize you to do his chores as well as yours? I could have gone either way. That is funny.

Have I ever hypnotized someone and convinced them to kill themselves? Oh no. And by the way that doesn't work because people have tried that. Yeah that's it's never worked apparently. Peer pressure can make somebody kill somebody but actual hypnosis doesn't seem to have that power. Oh that was meant to be snarky. Okay.

Can someone be hypnotized to work harder to get more money? Yes they can. Assuming they want to work harder to get more money. What hypnosis is really good at is helping you perform better at ordinary things that you want to perform at. So it could make you better at tennis, golf, you know, can get rid of the yips, flying if you're afraid of flying. So it makes everything you do a little bit better potentially because you want to be better at those things.

All right, that's all for now. As usual the most provocative and challenging live stream in all the world. Are autistic people less prone to hypnosis? I've never seen anybody deal with that question but my experience says it should be the same because generally speaking you cannot identify in advance someone who's easy to hypnotize. Everybody can be hypnotized but about 20% can actually see things that don't exist and have like a real experience that's incredible. But there's no correlation of IQ or personality or anything that seems to tell you in advance who's in the 20. So my guess is that anybody who can understand language would be about the same.

Could it cure Kamala's cackle? Yes, that would be actually a good use. Yeah Kamala could learn through hypnosis not to have that reaction. Yes that would be something.

Are we seeing Ye's first big offer? I don't think that's the way I would couch it because I don't know what you would call the first big offer. I think what he's doing is trying to unify people by slaying all of our sacred cows. Because if you and I have a beef — here's an unintentional pun — if we have a beef usually it's because I've got a sacred cow and you've got a sacred cow and I can't kill your sacred cow and you can't kill mine. So we got our sacred cows here. But I think what Ye is doing is like how about I'll murder my cow so you don't have any problems on my end. I'll just kill my cow. I don't have any sacred cows now. But would you mind if I kill your cow? See that's where he gets in trouble, right? The trouble is he's trying to kill your cow. So when he said that slavery sounds like a choice he was trying to kill the sacred cow which is oh slavery is sort of our narrative that gives us some political clout. When he went after the Jewish community their sacred cow is the Holocaust is the narrative that gives them cover and power and unites them and allows them to get support and everything. So Ye goes directly after their sacred cow by saying Hitler, I love Hitler, right? That's the... he basically just put a shiv right through the sacred cow.

So here's the thing. So far he's only wounded everybody's cow so we're all just mad. Hey you hurt my cow. Stop hurting my cow. But if he keeps pushing he's going to kill your cow. And then what? And then you're free and so is he. So he's tried to kill your cow and you don't want your cow killed but it's not clear that you're better off with your cow. I think his play is I think you're better off without your cow and I'm gonna kill it for you and prove it. Now he's killed all of his own sacred cows. Pretty sure he was worshiping money just a few weeks ago, was he? You know like he was proud of being the richest Black guy in America and stuff.
