wo of them really. One was drowning, just an irrational fear. And the other was something happening to my hands. That's why I taught myself to draw left-handed because I thought, you know, I don't want to have the risk. Very unusual for an artist to teach themselves to draw with both hands. I've never even heard of it. But I had this irrational fear that I would lose the ability to draw with one h…

What are the odds of that? Because I'll bet not one of you wakes up in the morning worried about your hands. I'm the only one. The only one worrying about it. And both hands got taken out at the same time by completely different situations.
But if you know anything about me, I'm not much of a quitter. So I'm going to try to get rid of this cancer if I can, see if anything normalizes. I don't know. I'm not expecting it to, but it might.
All right, moving on.
I told you some incorrect things about the new law about hemp. There's some apparently Congress was looking at making hemp illegal and I thought, "Oh, this is some trick they're using just to make marijuana illegal" and that was my take on it. That was all wrong. That was all fake news. There is a change on hemp, but I'm told that from somebody named Ben Groves. Is that a real name?

If you can find this podcast and this is the kind of content you'd want to watch, if you're even listening to this content, you're above average in intelligence. This is not, I mean honestly this is not really the podcast for the average people. We talk about some intellectually interesting things. So most of you are smarter than normal but even so the government has turned into a confusopoly, a word that I invented I don't know 25 years ago. And a confusopoly means that the consumer doesn't know what's a good deal and what's a bad deal because everything's too complicated. And that's where we're at where the governm

ent has become a confusopoly. Now, why does that work so well for the politicians? Because the politicians only have to confuse you to stay in power. If they did not confuse you, then you would know exactly what they were promoting and you might even know if it worked or it didn't work. That's no good. The politicians don't want you to be able to measure their effectiveness because you would meas…
