Somebody had texted over during the break Says I was wondering if any of you guys had caught the new Matt rife special on Netflix. What are your thoughts? I thought it's a stand-up he sucks open mic with the audience hilarious Yeah, a lot of his clips I've never seen a stand-up But a lot of his clips online are just him interacting with the audience And that's done and a lot of stand-ups will post crowd work because if they posted their actual material that would have nothing to do Yeah, people would say oh, I've already seen this We played some Matt rife clips from his stand-up back when he was blowing up and selling out He's still got a tour that he sold out for the next two years, right? And yeah, and we play the clip where he was telling Bert a cry sure about how the only people who showed up to see him were Single women and gay dudes I was just washing interview with him where he's talking about how he like had no money and then like within six months He is like a millionaire. Yeah, it's insane. I've got a clip of him that I want to share with you And let's see if what he's talking about remind you of anyone on this show. Yeah, this is Matt rife If I hear one more person blame how their life is going on Mercury I am so tired of you ladies blaming your poor decision-making skills on planets that don't even know you Has nothing to do with the stars man just because Jupiter has a ring and you don't doesn't mean Doesn't mean that's who you're supposed to look up to for all this magical advice man and stop trying to explain it so confidently You look stupid every time The girl of your dreams will look you straight in the eyes and say would you even know how the universe works? No, but tell me professor What there's a little planet called mercury and when it slows the chartation on the Sun a little bit It causes it to go into retrograde 98 million miles away, and that's what my life is just an absolute shabbos You're like your life isn't in shambles because of a planet in the sky It's because you can't live without a vape in your mouth And you only guys who need to borrow your car You worried about mercury while he crashed in your Saturn. Oh stupid All right, so does it remind you of any of us so ravey anybody? Yeah, right nailing me Sammy response did you take that personally Sammy? I mean I didn't but I mean the thing is is that Anyone who dismisses mercury retrograde instantly I mean you're just not I guess paying attention I don't blame my problems on mercury being retrograde because that's not what mercury retrograde is I think that a lot of people say that it like when they don't believe in it or don't know anything about it And they go stop blaming your problems on that or stop it. That's not what it is. Okay, so it's a different plan It's not mercury. It'd be like no, it is murder and that's causing your problems No, but it's not it's not causing your problems personally if your whole life is f'd up It's not because mercury So what is it really doing? What's it really? Yeah? What's the actual scientific thing that's actually it's when technology gets messed up or Stuff like that like things can go wrong. It doesn't mean your entire life is a mess Is that actually happening or is that just something somebody says right? But how does that how does that work? How does mercury affect the different? Yeah technology listen? Listen like what's the like if you said solar flares I'd be like oh, okay. Yeah, but that's the thing but an orbit a planet orbiting Yeah, explain please. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean I don't I don't know the science behind But you believe the science yeah because I There's no Disrupted technology is not I mean it happens in other times when mercury is not in retrograde Yeah, it's not the only time it happens more technology, you know screws up It's all amped up during the retrograde period. Yes, everybody knows it. Yeah, it just peaks, you know, yeah And by the way science and by the way being it because to actually the actual science behind us a little bit The planets are always rotating the same way all the time But it's an optical illusion because certain ones because they're closer to and to us and further from us Look like they are actually moving backwards against the other planets because actually other ones are moving faster and or slower So it's really it's just an optical illusion essentially Well, no the optical illusion is that it's spinning backwards right right. I mean we know that's not happening Well, what is that a Seabass just witnessed this in person the world of your dreams will look you straight in the eyes and say would you even know how the universe No, tell me professor See people and I actually people say I'll see you ask you hate me Sammy No, because I used to be before Sammy was here I could you deserve these idiots out, but you couldn't like interact with you couldn't pick their brain Yeah, and I honestly do enjoy having her in person to do that It's not I already I already I didn't though that I don't know why specifically mercury is what represents the communication and technology Just I just know that it that's what it represents you know, Sammy You're great, but like you're the girl that I walk away from at the party. I didn't bring this up I'm not I would never talk to you guys about it. I would only talk to other guys Sounders losing a ring. Oh, like oh gotta gotta go to the bathroom or something So so here's I guess one of my questions for you We know that let's say when there's a full moon that it affects affects the tides It affects the waters and we are mostly made up of water So what would make us think that something like a full moon wouldn't wouldn't affect us right? So like why would we think that okay? Yeah, see that this is this is where everybody psychics crystal people this is the this is the this is the The out they try to use is that well we know that these scientific phenomenon exists So how do we not know that my stupid belief isn't real because science exists? Yeah, well, they also like to tie things back into it Well, you know when we were cavemen or or we don't know yeah, like when we were cavemen That's why we're doing they usually we don't know to then say well I but I do know about mercury and retrograde crystals etc etc. See they use that's a little less the little wedge they use but it does prove what they're trying to state It just says well it could but it doesn't When there's no interpretation on the Sun a little bit it causes to go into retrograde 98 million miles away And that's what my life is just an absolute shabble I thought that was a pretty funny clip. That's good. I see his point 100% yeah
