I think there's so much to be said about being the best or a big fish in a little pond and like you can make a name for yourself and have a way better life.

0:08.1

Like this random dude is having so much more impact by creating a map being like the guy for like this very small math contest versus you know a rich

0:20.1

he's probably way more fulfilled than being just like another hundred million dollar banker.

0:34.3

Alright what's going on dude how are you?

0:36.5

Fantastic.

0:37.6

So I have something that I've been thinking about that I've been wanting to talk to you about.

0:42.0

Have you ever seen that video of Adolf Hitler at the German Olympics in 1936 when he's watching the Olympics and he's like a rock and back and forth have you ever seen that?

0:56.4

Bro you can't be blonde hair blue eyed and coming on here starting off saying have you ever seen my favorite video of Hitler?

1:02.4

No no no have you ever seen that video up the charts bro we're trying to go up.

1:06.4

Have you ever seen that video of him like so he's like basically there's this video that I saw a couple weeks ago where he's at the Olympics and he's rocking back and forth and he's very clearly on drugs like some type of coke or something like he's on drugs and I started getting curious about it and I started looking into this.

1:23.2

And someone in the comments said that there's this really good book called Blitz so I bought it it's right here it's called Blitz and basically it's called Blitz drugs in a third right so basically after reading it Hitler and a

1:36.3

ton of the Nazis as well as just a ton of Germany starting in the 1930s like morphine heroin and math was invented and they used to think that it was like a miracle drug doctors were like take this math it makes you feel it's like this it's like a it's like a it's like a it's like a miracle drug like you get you for you you want to stay up all time you'll eat less it's this wonderful drug and like it was a legal drug that bear you know B.A.Y.E.R the drug company now they were like selling this shit and they would even put it in chocolates and there was like a chocolate that you would eat that had a little

2:06.3

little bit of a death in it and it was like always satisfied or something like that and like it was so common and turns out Hitler was a junkie he was getting injected with meth for years and that's one of the reasons why you know like when they were getting bombed the very last minute he was like oh no we're doing great because he had like these like you know he was like hallucinating you know he had like thoughts of grander typical meth shit and I started thinking about this what other stuff in history was supposed to be one way and

2:36.3

one time but turns out it was for a totally other reason and I started looking into it so for example Henry the eighth he was the kid have you know what Protestants are no I've heard that word a thousand times I knew you would do protestist no so like there's like the Catholics and there's the part of the Protestants it's basically like if you're like an evangelical Christian if you're a Baptist if you're like all these other different types of Christian religions you're probably a Protestants maybe by definition you are anyway someone came up with it like Martin Luther came up with it and

3:06.3

in the 1500s the King of England he basically like had like eight divorces because he couldn't have a kid like it was it was him he was infertile and the Pope was like hey you can't have these divorces anymore this is bullshit he's like no fuck that then we're gonna switch to Protestant because that allows like you know me to get a divorce and I can have all these kids and so now like there's a billion Protestants in the world because he just turns out like one of the divorce and then like there's this like there's this like story that you you never know how Barcelona people say Barcelona really

3:36.2

funny like Barcelona yeah there's like this urban myth that the King of Spain had a list and someone's like hey you

3:44.9

know it's pronounced Barcelona and he goes no from now on it's Barcelona because you know that's just how I say it that's just my first million yeah

3:53.3

yeah it's like you know Mike Tyson ruled the world and just thinking about like what other stuff did we

4:04.6

think that was gonna be like you know was for this like grand reason but it's really just like you know like the

4:10.5

guys dad said something like like George Bush invading like you know looking for weapons of mass destruction because like his

4:15.9

dad was like you know you're not strong like your brother and like you know because he couldn't find the remote one time

4:22.9
