## Episode Summary

What is Blue? A color or a check mark? What if human beings on the street had check marks like on Twitter and Tik Tok? Would you be more or less likely to kill them? Would you respect them and trust their expertise or just shoot them?

## Idea Details

* Idea: Verified People
* Creator of idea: Josiah
* Purpose of idea: Why should we trust experts? In life. (Drew: "Well, I'm not sure you should! What if they're doing fake news?") Well, e-- I mean, exac-- I mean, exa-- e-- I mean, e-- I -- I mean, exactly! This is the crunx of the episode: How do we know who to trust? So that -- I mean, your skepticism is correct! A lot of people are not trusting experts no more! It's really become a -- (Drew: "Well, yeah, they're not trustworthy! I *don't* think the media's our friend!") So, see, you know, there's -- be wary of experts! So what do we do, Drew? No one trusts the experts! What are we supposed to do in life? If no one trusts the expert, I mean -- (Drew: "I don't know!") -- You're -- Ever since I started this episode, I've noticed you've been even more ornery than usual, you've been at my throat telling me how much you hate the experts and you don't trust anyone and -- (Drew: "I'm not saying -- I haven't said that!") You said you don't trust the media! (Drew: "It's true!") You don't trust the -- I mean, you're Case 1 -- Case 0 -- you're Zero Patient of distrust of experts! (Drew: "What, just because -- Well, it's not *all* experts! I trust Tony Fauci, I trust some people, I trust Joe Biden. But I think there's, you know --") There's a problem! (Drew: "If you talk about stuff like the media in terms of stuff like *The Book of Boba Fett*, which it's totally untrue to the character of Boba Fett, as far as I'm concerned, and it's not true *Star Wars*! So how do you go and say that this is a canon show in *Star Wars* lore in the *Star Wars* universe when it's just complete horse shit, it's baby shit?") Well I think the issue is that we've lost the ability to tr-- to tru-- we've lost the ability to know *who* to trust! Too many vying for our attention in day-to-day life, we don't know who to listen to! (Drew: "We need less people 'vying' for attention and more people 'vibing' for our attention.") That's true. And more people buying uh tentive uh consumerism. But that's a different episode. We're talking about how to figure out who to trust in day-to-day life, and well, here's the thing. You spend a lot of time on uh the social media. And wha-- you know, it's kind of a mixed thing, but I think one thing that *has* happened on there is people do -- have learned how to trust certain accounts! And how do they trust them? Well, they verify the ones that should be trusted! (Drew: "Right. But there's not -- Right away, I see a problem with that, Josiah. Because there are some accounts who are 'blue-checked', as we say on Twitter, who are not --") It's not just on Twitter, too, they have it on every kind of app! They have the uh -- (Drew: "Uh huh. Right, but on any app, there's people who still use this -- their platform, regardless of whether they're verified to spread disinformation.") Yeah, they spread *this* information, *that* information, all kinds of information. I agree! And so my point is the people who are spreading *this* information that you should *trust* -- (Drew: "No: '*dis*-information!") I'm sorry, I don't -- I can't hear what you're saying, there's -- *This* information! (Drew: "No, 'dis', 'dis', 'dis'. Like 'D-I-S', like 'un' -- All right, let's just call it inf-- 'un-information'. So the opposite of information.") Well, so it's boring. You're saying it's boring. (Drew: "No, because the -- you could say stuff -- OK, if there's information out there in the world, there's waves going throughout the air and there's sound waves and there's light waves and there's material -- the material, the matter of the planet, the planet Earth -- you can talk about *all* of this stuff, Josiah.") Yeah, but, I mean, what I'm trying to say to you is if you wanna know what's the best one to do, then you need to know who to listen to, and what to do, and who to view, and I say, 'Pick the blue! ...check! on Twitter, and that's what we will do!' So it's already working on Twitter! I mean, they're saying it! (Drew: "No, that's not true!") Everyone is saying that it's verified is has a fixed -- fixing Twitter! (Drew: "Well, here's the thing, Josiah: they don't even *give* verifications anymore! Try and get one!") Have you ever heard of a metaphor before? I'm trying to introduce you to a new idea. It doesn't end here. (Drew: "Uh huh.") Twitter is invented the blue-check thing. I'm not saying it's a perfect system right now; I'm saying it's a way to find good accounts! OK? It's a way to find good accounts. Being verified can show you that you can have a good account. It shows that you have a good account. There's other benefits. (Drew: "So basically what you're saying is that we should have verification on Twitter, which is what we have.") No, I'm saying that verification shows you that you can trust the source. So what is -- what's my point, Drew? You don't understand my point. We don't know anything about who to trust these -- nowadays. (Drew: "Yeah, well, you -- speak for yourself.") We don't know who to trust, there's no more trusting the experts, there's no more experts, so what are we gonna do? Well, what we're gonna do is we're gonna start verifying human beings. We're gonna take it off the social media into real life, we're gonna have a society that's based on Verified People.
* Timetable: No timetable was given for Verified People. It will only require Josiah and Drew to travel around the world giving E-meter audits to everyone on the planet in order to discern who is a Blue, so it should be implemented very soon.
* Idea details:
	+ We don't know who to trust and there's no more trusting the experts and there's no more experts. The solution is to take verification off of social media into real life by having a society that's based on Verified People.
	+ It will not be a classist system to have Verified People.
	+ The new system will be a Three-V System: Everyone is Valid, some people are Valued, and a very select group of elites are Verified.
	+ The elite Verified People will not act in their own self-interest, but rather will act in the interest of others because everyone will be interested in what they have to say.
	+ Verified People will be knowledgeable about topics such as what kind of car should you buy, or what snack should you have, or who should you vote for.
	+ There will not be a financial aspect to becoming a Verified Person because it will be based on merit. But in order to pay the bills, there will be some fun crypto stuff and hexagon NFTs, such as spraying your face with a liquid to turn it digital.
	+ Verified People must permanently spray their faces blue. They can then pay more to turn it to an NFT with the NFT liquid spray. This spray will fade over time like a tattoo, so respraying would help make it look brighter so the Verified Person is taken more seriously.
	+ Once someone is Verified, it cannot be revoked like it can on Twitter.
	+ There are no days off for blue-check Verified People because it is their cross to bear.
	+ To figure out if someone should be a Verified Person in real life, you need to first figure out if they are a Blue. This will be discovered using a process that is similar to Scientology Auditing, though it is not that exactly.
	+ The Blue auditing process will use an E-meter.
	+ Josiah and Drew will start traveling the country and eventually the world, and they will start auditing people using an E-meter to determine if that person is a Blue and should thus be a Verified Person.
	+ For the time being, the questions included in the Verified People audit will come from a video called "Personality Test: 5 Questions That Reveal Insights Into Your Personality".
	+ If you are already a blue-check on Twitter, it will come over automatically and make you a Verified Person. This means that, from the start, Josiah will be a Verified Person and Drew will not.

## Devil Play

* Drew played devil for Josiah by pointing to verified users who are spreading false information and being unruly.
	+ Josiah sarcastically guessed that Drew was talking about him.
	+ Drew denied this claim, saying that he was instead talking about Twitter user 'BobbyBullet' @Logic301, who posted that poking another man on Facebook is gay.
	+ Josiah responded that the word 'gay' has different meanings and he could have meant that it was fun, which lined up with Josiah's own feelings on the matter. He went further to declare that Drew was actually applying his own homophobia to the statement because everyone used to always say things about having a 'gay old time' poking their friends on Facebook and Drew knew this.
	+ Drew moved on anyway and pointed to other verified users like Joel Rogan.
	+ Josiah clarified that the good we can take from this is that adding the blue check to the right people is the right way to do this.
	+ Drew asked who the right people are.
	+ Josiah exclaimed that he would get to that.

Drew guessed that the farmer stole the turkey, doing a double-cross. Josiah did not make a guess. The correct answer was that the farmer's wife cooked the turkey to surprise the farmer. Josiah asked if they could solve one more riddle because he wasn't quite awake yet so they chose "#10: AN UNLUCKY SKYDIVER" to solve. The riddle was about which path a skydiver picked. Josiah guessed he chose the path with the piranhas. Drew was not paying attention and so did not make a guess. The correct answer was that the skydiver chose the path with the mountains because no one said he had to climb them and so he chose to go around them.

* Josiah and Drew watched a video called "Personality Test: 5 Questions That Reveal Insights Into Your Personality" about what can you discover about yourself on an endless ocean when you answer 5 questions in this Japanese personality test. Drew took the audit since he could have been the first Verified Person. The questions, answers, and his responses are as follows:
	+ Take a moment to imagine that you awoke one morning to find yourself in a boat lost on an endless ocean. It surrounds you on all sides as far as the eye can see, but then you suddenly see something sparkle in the sea. The salt spray mists your face as you lean over the rail to catch sight of a mysterious creature of the deep. You see that it's a mermaid. What color is her tail?
		- Drew: "Green."
	+ The mermaid beckons you to follow her and she eventually leads you to an island. What kind of shore does this island have? Is it a sandy beach or a dangerous rocky cliff face?
		- Drew: "It's a sandy beach!"
	+ As you step off your boat, you stand on a seashell lodge in the ocean floor. Describe what the shell you found look likes. Is it a big spiky horn or a shell with a simply, smooth plain edge?
		- Drew: "It's a beautiful shell with a gem inside of it."
	+ You carry on walking along the beach. How many people, if any do you see?
		- Drew: "No one."
	+ Is the beach deserted or do you see hundreds of people?
		- Drew: "Deserted."
	+ You turn around and have one final look at the ocean. You see that there is a family of whales that have surfaced just a short distance away! Which of the following best describes that family? 1. A small baby whale swimming behind its gigantic mother., 2. A baby whale snuggling close to its mother's belly., 3. A father and mother whale swimming with their baby., 4. A baby whale blowing a water spout as it swims off alone.
		- Drew: "2."
	+ Do you remember all your answers? That's Great.
		- Drew: "I wrote them down."
	+ The color of the mermaid's tail gives you an indication of how sociable you are in life. Cooling calm, natural colors such as green or blue indicate that you're the shy type.
		- Drew: "Oh! Interesting!"
	+ Bright colors such as red's and yellow suggest that you can find many things in common with people, even strangers. The beach the mermaid shows you is a symbol of how you like to resolve altercations when you face them in your life. If you imagined an inoffensive sandy beach, then the chances are you have no problem being open with your options when standing up for what you believe in.
		- Drew: "That's true."
	+ If you saw a steep rocky cliff face, this suggests that you prefer to put up a wall and avoid all conflicts and arguments. The shell you stood on reflects your degree of openness you have toward the people around you. A simple seashell without any marking indicates that you find it easy to open up to people.
		- Drew: "I found one with a gem in it!"
	+ It's probably the exact opposite if you imagined that you stood on a shell with a spiky horn or other intricate shape or size. In this case, you're likely to be a closed individual who isn't inclined to share the details of their personal life with those around them. The people on the beach is symbolic of how many friends you have.
		- Drew: "Oh no!!! I said it was deserted!!"
	+ If the beach was full of people, then you're probably quite a social animal, you're a real hit at parties.
		- Drew: "Oh no..."
	+ If there were a few individuals, then you can be charming and social. The chances are that you have fewer friends in life, but you keep the ones you do have very close to you.
		- Drew: "Mhm, that's true."
	+ If you imagined yourself alone on an empty beach, you are probably not looking for friends and are often content in being alone.
		- Drew: "Mhm."
	+ You're the type of person who doesn't trust in others and it's often a sign you have been hurt in the past.
		- Drew: "Hurt people hurt people!"
	+ The relationship that you imagined between the whales in this scene are linked to the feelings you might have about your own relationship with your mother. A small baby whale swimming behind its gigantic mother. The role of the mother is almost overwhelmingly important to you.
		- Drew: "I said it was a ba-- the #2. The wh-- uh baby who was cuddling with the mom, I think."
	+ It may be that your own mother is influencing the way you act and think even now that you're an adult. It might be a good idea to cut away some of those apron strings and work toward a new level of independence. After all, your mother didn't raise you to be a child forever.
		- Drew: "True."
	+ A baby whale snuggling close to its mother's belly.
		- Drew: "Oh! Isn't that cute?"
	+ You crave physical affection. It's natural and normal to feel the need for human warmth, but you feel that need more than others.
		- Drew: "That's not right. That's not right."
	+ Men who gave this answer should be especially careful not to look to their partners to play the role of the surrogate mother. Playing mommy's little boy is no way to run a mature romance.
		- Drew: "Uh oh. No..."
	+ A father and mother whale swimming with their baby. You have an equal appreciation for the roles of both your mom and you dad (the father is often forgotten about in these types of imaginary scenes). As a child, your home life was most likely happy and secure, and the result is your stable outlook on life.
		- Drew: "I *think* I'm Blue!"
	+ A baby whale blowing a water spout as it swims off alone. You have achieved personal autonomy and are well on your way to real growth as an individual, But your insistence on being your own person can sometimes make you appear to be willful, headstrong or just plain selfish. Take care not to be so individualistic that you alienate the people around you.
		- Drew: "It says I'm Blue!"
	+ So, how accurate were your test results? Did your answers make any sense?
		- Drew: "It says I'm Blue! Yeah, I'm Blue! Yeah, I'm Blue! I'm Blue. Yeah, I'm Blue. Yeah. Yeah."
			* While Drew declared that he passed the audit as a Blue, Josiah regretfully informed him that based on the criteria for Blue humans, Drew did not quite make it, though he noted that Drew is allowed to reapply every 30 days.
* Drew gave Josiah a test for if he's Blue. The questions and his responses are as follows:
	+ Drew: "Have you ever had anything to do with communism or been a communist?"
		- Josiah: "What is this for, though?"
	+ Drew: "This is *my* -- this is to see if you're Blue!"
		- Josiah: "Well, no! Cause you're not -- you don't even like the Verified People --"
	+ Drew: "Have you ever had intercourse while under the influence of drugs?"
		- Josiah: "What's -- like coffee?"
	+ Drew: "Have you ev-- Sure."
		- Josiah: "Well, I --"
	+ Drew: "Have you ever had intercourse while under the influence of alcohol?"
		- Josiah: "Pass."
	+ Drew: "Have you ever used drugs or alcohol to procure sex?"
		- Josiah: "Pass."
	+ Drew: "Have you ever used blackmail to procure sex?"
		- Josiah: "Pass. What is this questions from?"
	+ Drew: "Have you ever ill-treated children?"
		- Josiah: "Pardon me?"
	+ Drew: "Have you ever ill-treated children?"
		- Josiah: "What is that -- what is that phrasing?"
	+ Drew: "Have you ever taken money for giving anyone sexual intercourse?"
		- Josiah: "No."
	+ Drew: "Have you have ever had any connection with a brothel?"
		- Josiah: "Uh no. I'm on Twitter, though. Seems to be, nowadays, that kinda thing."
	+ Drew: "Mhm. Um have you ever been a spy for the police?"
		- Josiah: "Can't say."
	+ Drew: "You're not Blue."
		- Josiah: "Well, that's not -- you don't get to decide that! This is my episode! And I get to decide!"
	+ Drew: "Well I just -- sounds like I just did."
		- Josiah: "And I don't think that you were honest with the ta-- Either you were *too* honest and now you're pretending you weren't and you're saying I don't like to be mommy's little boy when I'm dating someone --"
	+ Drew: "Have you ever falsified the books in any firm you worked for?"
		- While Josiah declared that it was his episode and so he gets to decide if he is Blue, Drew informed him that based on this test, Josiah was in fact not Blue.
* Josiah and Drew watched a video called "Inspirational Commercial Music (Royalty free instrumental for films or commercials)" about a bright, triumphant, hopeful and absolutely uplifting pop-rock track.
* Drew continued asking Josiah some questions to determine if he is Blue. The questions and answers were as follows:
	+ Drew: "Have you ever embezzled money?"
		- Josiah: "No comment."
	+ Drew: "Have you ever forged someone's signature?"
		- Josiah: "Yes."
	+ Drew: "Have you ever told lies in court?"
		- Josiah: "In court?"
	+ Drew: "Yeah."
		- Josiah: "No."
	+ Drew: "Have you ever burglared any place?"
		- Josiah: "No."
	+ Drew: "Have you ever assaulted anyone?"
		- Josiah: "Salted?"
	+ Drew: "Assaulted."
		- Josiah: "No."
	+ Drew: "Wrong. You have harassed me every single time [unintelligible]"
		- Josiah: "That's not assault!"
	+ Drew: "Yes it is!"
		- Josiah: "Harassment's not assault!"
	+ Drew: "Yes it is!"
		- Josiah: "No it's not! And you're not allowed to say that I harass people!"
	+ Drew: "Yes."
		- Josiah: "That's assault."
	+ Drew: "No. You know what's assault?"
		- Josiah: "I'm a blue-check! You need to have some respect."
	+ Drew: "I don't need -- Look. I respect blue-checks, as a whole. I don't respect them as individuals."
		- Josiah: "This guy loves a 'hole'. That's for s-- *damn* sure."
