Tahir talks about getting older and reconsidering what success actually means: Does he still want maximum Hollywood fame, or would making great work for an audience that genuinely cares be enough? That leads to a conversation about comedy as a craft, short attention spans, IRL streaming, artistic freedom, celebrity, privacy, and why artists like Yasiin Bey, Erykah Badu, Curren$y, and Terence Crawford represent a different kind of success.Join our Patreon now!! https://www.patreon.com/DamInternetYouScary00:00 Humanoid Robots Are Getting Way Too Fast01:33 What Happens When AI Meets the Robots?04:42 Economic Anxiety and the “Stop Paying Bills” Plan11:07 The World Humanoid Robot Games13:17 Our Apocalypse Plans Have a Problem14:43 Would You Get Robot Body Parts?17:17 The Great Bill-Paying Boycott Debate20:03 Mint Mobile22:44 People Are Smoking Scorpions?24:22 A Different Way to Think About Giving26:45 Texas Roadhouse Allegations29:55 Why Tahir Is Tired of Eating Out30:30 Tipping, Wages and Restaurant Prices36:45 PrizePicks39:09 The Former Power Ranger Burglary Story41:18 Pitching the “Robber Rangers” Movie43:47 LA Restaurant Health Closures45:09 The Problem With Food Delivery Apps48:00 Could Tahir Leave Hollywood for a Farm?50:02 GLD52:05 Rethinking the Dream53:33 Getting Older Changes Your Definition of Success55:30 Drake, Yasiin Bey and Art vs. Celebrity57:15 Finding the Right Level of Fame1:00:49 Quince1:03:54 Why Some Concert Crowds Feel Different1:04:51 IRL Streaming and Clout Culture1:05:31 Comedy Still Requires the Work1:08:00 Every Entertainment Industry Has This Problem1:09:00 Terence Crawford and Success on Your Own Terms1:09:42 Knowing When Enough Is Enough1:12:16 One Last “Stop Paying Bills” Plan1:14:15 Patrick and Tahir’s Upcoming Projects1:16:48 Outro
