Bangladeshi bank heist.

No.

Now we're talking, right? This is going to blow your mind.

And again, it doesn't sound good right now, but it's going to be good.

So the biggest bank robbery in history was, I think it's about $60 million in Brazil in about 2015, 2016.

With cybercrime recently- they almost hacked $1 billion from the Bangladeshi bank using the SWIFT system, right? The context that year, the Bangladeshi GDP was like 230 billion.

Like if you look at

all these fast growing consumer businesses, they either have a chief meme officer in house.

Can you tell that story of when you left Dubai? I don't think you've ever told this publicly because it's

one of those weird ones.

But when I was in, I was leaving, I was in Dubai for a few months.

I was leaving for the summer.

And whilst I was there, I was in this hotel building and there was a gym next door.

And I'd walk to the gym each day.

And there was a guy on like the parking attendant.

What do I do? What have you changed your mind on?

Have you heard of the Bangladeshi bank heist? No.

Now we're talking, right? This is going to blow your mind.

And again, it doesn't sound good right now, but it's going to be good.

With cybercrime recently- they almost hacked $1 billion from the Bangladeshi bank using the SWIFT system, right? For context, that year, the Bangladeshi GDP was like 230 billion.

So think with GDP as well, it's movement of money.

The fastest growing companies in the next 10 years will have a chief meme officer working for them directly or indirectly.

If you look at all these fast growing consumer businesses, they either have a chief meme officer in-house.

Talk to me about the social psychology of Drake's dick pic.

[laughs] Yeah.

This is, this is-- this happened hours ago, but from what I understand is that Drake, Drake's dick has now been leaked online.

Not seen it, not interested in seeing it.

Uh, but it has brought up an interesting double standard where there's a lot of women on Twitter right now sort of melting over these images, over a well-endowed Drake, let's put it that way.

And it's just everywhere.

It's just being thrown around, flinged around, like everyone's just talking about it, like how great.

... to do the same is the same inversion as a woman's ability to fight back physically.

Sounds good.

It's not total money.

If Chris sends George 10 and I send it back, blah, blah, blah, that acts towards the GDP, but it's just us exchanging money.

So imagine taking $1 billion like that from a developing country immediately.

Fomo.

Like, excellent will be very expensive.

I, I, I think there's a sort of weird texture to when you believe in something.

You, you...

No one can see your belief in it, especially if it's words written down on a page, but I think you can feel when someone really believes in something, and I think the problem with artificial writing or AI writing is, like, you don't actually believe it.

You just got it kind of from the, from the, from the robot, and I think there's just a weird...

I, you can tell when you read something, and you just know that the person really, really, really believes about, believes it, and I think of a, I think of an advert, um, I can't remember the gentleman's name, but he, he basically has this idea, I'm going to suspend a car a- a- above, um, above the w- uh, uh, uh, the chap who made the car to prove how good the suspension is of the, of the...

I think it was a Volvo, and they say, "We can't get that past legal." So he says, "Oh, it's gonna be me then." So anyway, the writer of the ad suspends him, suspends this big car with wires just above, above himself, and it's one of the most famous ads of all time, and it's like that only got across the line because he just really believed in it, and I, I think your conviction in an idea i- i- is more important than the idea in, in so many cases.

How would you fix, uh, like how, how do you go about fixing your positioning? What do you mean?

Bird mouth.

A philosopher?

Montaigne.

Yeah, so French, uh, French philosopher.

Would be fascinating to hear his, uh, perspectives on the, um, the old Q debate.

But Montaigne used to have lists that he would keep of what different cultures thought were acceptable throughout history, just so he could remind himself that this whole thing is largely made up.

It's largely social contagion.

So some of my, like, favorite from Montaigne's lists.

No way

Mm.

So it's obviously up for debate, but Rome, uh, most mainstream historians will say that Rome fell in about 476 AD, and it's almost 'cause it's quite poetic because you have Romulus saw the rise of the Roman Empire.

He was the first Roman emperor.

And then young Romulus was disposed, and that was the end of the Roman Empire.

But the next day there was no big announcement that the Roman Empire had fallen.

So much so it go- you obviously have the split of the Roman Empire, um, I think in s- the 700s AD.

Charlemagne is announced as the official Roman Emperor.

[laughing]

Mm.

There was no news.

If...

The book The Sovereign Individual has this beautiful line which, if the CNN existed during the fall of the Roman Empire, the headline would not have been, "The Roman Empire has just fallen." So you have the split of the Roman Empire.

You have the Eastern Roman Empire, and you have the Western Roman Empire.

The, um, Eastern Roman Empire goes on to about 1300 AD.

Charlemagne becomes the emperor.

Mm

I'm sure if you go dark enough and deep enough into the OnlyFans rabbit hole, you can find whatever you need.

Let me take my toothpick out of my mouth before I address the table.

Um, one of the things that I've been fascinated with for a while, I know you have as well, Christopher, I don't know about you two gentlemen, but, uh, uh, etymologies of everything.

So, um, I was trying to rank my favorite etymologies or history of certain parts of language.

One of them is, um, uh, not English, but it's Malaysian.

And in Malay- Malayan culture, they use double rather than plural.

So rather than tables, they will use table table, which is one of my favorite things.

Oh

It's, it's interesting that, from what I've heard, it was often like-

like-You know, my neighbors, you know, my, my...

You know, I inherited from my parents that house and, you know, just that it's all now a wasteland, you know, and it won't ever come back.

It was kinda interesting.

Yeah.

It wasn't the material, it was the community and stuff.

Yeah.

And I remember looking around, and I realized I still wouldn't got to a point in the race where the crowds weren't just rammed with people.

Which you have, yeah.

And, and not going to track.

I've obviously got a new girlfriend, which has probably impacted how seriously I take my running.

I mean, I think I'm just too stubborn to, like, you know.

What, what's also interesting though is that, you know, I, I also follow you, Comic Book Click follows you, um, and, uh, those pictures backstage are amazing, but every picture that you have taken with talent, they are smiling ear to ear.

You've really built a community of friends with, with, uh, the, the talent, and I wonder if, um, a bit of the grind that it's taken you to make H- Hadlock a household name, whether you share that same respect with those out there on the grind on the road.

Do you share that kinda kinship of the hustle?

So I try to give everybody as much grace as possible, unless you're saying some bigoted shit, and then I'm gonna, you know, I'm gonna clap back on you.

Yeah.

It, it feels like, um, y- it feels like a lot of that backlash, which I've seen as well, uh, when it comes to creators who take stances, are the extremely online crowd.

And you are, you, you are boots on the ground.

Mm

... have you had this? This is, like, this is kratom.

This is actually kratom.

[laughs]

Hmm.

I do enjoy chewing while drinking Coke, so that's good.

That's a positive.

Oh, his good ones.

Like, he had the Ethikas in the bag.

He's like, "Yeah, I spent a bag on these.

I'm not letting them go."

Like a full stream.

Like you're like...

Yes.

Did you think something was always going to happen?

No, I was convinced nothing would happen.

I'd fallen in love with...

I had fallen in love with her, sort of probably over the summer after her father's death.

Um, I was single at the time with, just living with Tams and my younger daughter.

Um, and I didn't really want a partner at the time.

So falling in love with Lal, I kind of, I thought, "That's okay.

But as I say, almost as if I deserved it, almost as if I was owed it.

Okay.

So it's...

Picture this.

We're gonna go back to 1970s Surrey, uh, in England.

There's, like, a beautiful old farmhouse called Old Croft, and a musician has just moved in.

And he's in a band, and they've just had their first, like, top 40 song.

So it's at that point of a musician's career where either this is, like, we're about to take off, or we had that, like, one blip and we're done.

[laughs]

Maybe-

And imagine like that, imagine that car hitting you.

That's like, "Ah!"

No, it was some woman, uh, asleep-

Like was she upset, though? Like how did she sound? 'Cause if she, they wholeheartedly thought you were downstairs sleeping on their couch without permission and somehow got into their house, like is, was it like a, "Are you in my house right now?"

Hello.

Oh, wait, wait, we got a couple more people waiting.

Let me ..........................

Uh, tonight, we welcome back a longtime friend of LimeMac, Chuck Joyner, host and chief conversationalist of Mac Voices.

(laughs)

Chuck's wide knowledge of Apple as a company and of the Apple community makes him the ideal guide to a fast-moving topic, Apple's relationship with artificial intelligence, from everyday pr- productivity boosts to the business moves shaping Cupertino.

So please silence your, your S-lady and get ready for sharp insight with a smile.

Let's give LimeMac's...

And would it make things even worse?

But if I had a problem and people said, "Well, we can't have...

You can't produce."...

lamb, or whatever, what can I produce in that field? So I'm stuck.

I can't produce livestock, so is somebody gonna compensate me for the lack of earnings for land I can't use? And, and that's, hey, that's another avenue you can go down.

But I'm, I'm one person who y- you can talk to who's having a problem.

It's a tough dilemma for farmers.

If, um, the, the people like the EA and, and them people don't get involved and, you know, does our meat, possibly our lamb, got more, uh, lead content? You know? It's, it's one of them questions and, you know, is, is, is it better you don't know?

Yeah.

... we're kind of aware.

Um, so, you know, I, I think it's just about being present out on the course and making sure they see you, one.

Uh, to know that, hey, look, you know, if they see you, they, they realize, you know, you're, you're watching them, so...

And just, uh, you know, if they do fall behind, you know, jumping on it right at the start and saying, "Hey, look, guys, uh, you know, you're a little bit behind, and, uh, we need you to pick it up." And not being afraid to do it, and doing it in a, in a courteous manner to where, you know, they still feel comfortable.

Um, and then I think a lot of it too is just, you know, member awareness.

What is- what's the number, what is the age or is there no age below which you say there's really no point in trying to tea- they don't have attention span, they don't really know what they're doing?

So, uh, every Sunday this, uh, through the season, we have something what we call Eagle Tots, and that's three to five year olds that come out for one hour, uh, on the back range.

That's it.

So it was stars aligning, consistency and hard work.

What I do, as simple as it may seem, you're just posting boderia videos.

No, you're helping small businesses, helping people break bread, have good conversations, doing what we're doing now-

Really?

I'm just saying how hospitable people are, opening doors, talking, but also respectful of other peoples' spaces, not talking, knowing when to talk, when not to talk, when to serve, when not to serve.

They are just very aware of everything.

But the food was next level.
