## Notable Quotes

### Josiah

* "Happy birthday, Patrick. Uh can't wait for you to become legal. Until then, cameras off until then."
* "[On the topic of the legal age of consent] I don't actually know the other age you're referring to. I don't - that's not something I'm aware of. In any location. I just don't - that's - doesn't concern me."
* "I think Patrick's definitely the dumbest person in the room. No matter what room he's in."
* "[On the topic of an IQ test] I passed the 'I Cute' test."
* "This is our boy: the real Chris Langan."
* "Us just silently watching silent football. That's Globe Hell, baby!"
* "[On the topic of Chris Langan] So, you know, he's an Irish musician, he's a car racer, he's a football player, he's on a high school football team, piano player, uh racist brain genius, drummer, and he's also a director!"
* "So, I mean, do we have any final thoughts about uh intelligence or uh eugenics? Are we pro? Anti?"
* "Well I think we've learned that intelligence is overrated and it's a sign of uh evil, essentially."

### Drew

* "[On the topic of what intelligence means to him] Well, intelligence means to me is it's IQ, it's problem solving, it's being able to walk into a room and have all the eyes uh and all the people turn their head, look at you, and say, 'This is the smartest person in the room!'."
* "[On the topic of what the notes he's been writing during the recording say so far] Uh it's ju- well it's mostly just scribbles right now. No, just like loops. Almost like - it's like I'm trying to get a pen working."
* "I hate foreign governments."
* "I'm just looking at his Wikipedia page. 'Langan's support of conspiracy theories, including the 9/11 Truther movement (Langan has claimed that George W. Bush administration staged the 9/11 attacks), the white genocide conspiracy theory, as well as his opposition to interracial relationships, have contributed to his gaining a following among members of the alt-right and others on the far right. Journalists have described certain of Langan's internet posts as containing "thinly veiled" antisemitism and making antisemitic "dog whistles"'. And this is the smartest guy on the planet."
* "I mean, just to contrast with him saying that we're all one, here's another: 'One of Langan's posts, an obituary for the intelligent gorilla Koko, wherein Langan suggested that the U.S. would do better to admit African gorillas as refugees than African people,'."
* "[In response to Josiah's question about whether they are pro or anti eugenics] Um, no I think eugenics is uh, you know, a big thumbs-down."

### Cameron

* "[On the topic of how smart he is] Oh, I'm quite intelligent. I know a great many facts and factoids, as well."
* "That's why you'll never be intrigued by knowledge like me."
* "[In response to Drew saying eugenics is a big thumbs-down] I would say two thumbs down from me."
* "[In response to Patrick saying he would not eat glue for inequality] You would choose inequality over eating glue?"

### Patrick

### Caleb

* "[In response to Josiah's question about his high emotional intelligence] See, I have emotional intelligence so I don't know what you said, there's too - it's too long and confusing and paradoxical. I'm more about oeuvre."
* "I'm talking about oeuvre. Fuckin idiot, emotionally speaking."
* "[On the topic of Drew's form of intelligence] He might have artistic intelligence."
* "Can a documentary be based on a real story?"
* "Being the smartest man in the world is like having a winning lotto ticket. You don't wanna reveal your identity; what if someone steals your brain?"
