0:00.0	Welcome back to part two of my conversation with Stephen Bonnell, the well-known streamer and social commentator that everyone in the internet calls Destiny.
0:11.7	We are talking about how rapidly the world is changing, how internet culture is really beginning to influence everything in the mainstream.
0:19.3	We really had a fascinating conversation. We go into
0:22.1	a lot of different topics, including some things around sex. So again, if you have little ones in
0:26.9	the car for this one, I would not pick this episode as the one to listen to together. But if we are

1:23.4	And if you can create that emotion in a way that keeps them a little off balance,
1:28.4	in a way where they don't feel unsafe, it still needs to be playful, I'll give you an example.
1:34.4	So the first sort of sexually charged words I ever said to the woman who is now my wife
1:43.1	was sit your ass down, you're not
1:45.0	going anywhere.
1:45.8	Sure.
1:46.3	Now, the number of people that have heard me tell that story that then tell my wife, oh my God,
1:51.0	like he's abusing you, like you've got to get away.
