Hello Folks and hey Bear! The most accurate thing ever said on this podcast was, “people at desk shouldn’t be telling farmers how to farm.” Coming from a farmer it is getting ridiculous! I’m all for the safety of consumers and environment, but we got written up by food safety because deer tracks were found in our field. They suggested we put up signs to keep deer out. Hate to break it to the lady, but as far as I know deer can’t read. What do I know though I’m just a backwoods farmer. Love you guys!
Nate!!! You can’t steal Brian’s spotlight! Regarding robots: Ray Bradbury published a short story titled “The Pedestrian” in 1951. The main character gets arrested by a robotic police car because he is out walking at night. He is taken to the “Psychiatric Center for Research on Regressive Tendencies” because he’s not home on his electronics like the rest of the city. When I teach this story to my sophomores, we have a fabulous discussion about technology. Then the bell rings and they file out with their eyes glued to their phones.
@@justkate2529Yes. Turns out the MAIN ingredient for a child to be the first family member to attend college is money. Just the ability to afford it. Not being told you’ll go to college, not grades, not gender, not color.
I start to feel bad for Aaron getting raked over the comment coals, then he goes and tries to justify fighting a lion over 100 seagulls and I'm like, "ah that's right, that's how we got here in the first place."
I’m a phd student in philosophy at the University of South Florida, and I loved Aaron’s brief excursion into formal logic. Although, I’m very disappointed to hear you failed it twice, I will from now on only use the phrase, “dusty has a dog,” when teaching my logic undergraduate students
Just gotta say that Nate was saying he had stuff to show but it was all on his bus… I’ve been here long enough to remember when he gave Aaron a hard time for not bringing in his childhood baseball glove, and it was not even in the same state! 😂
Nate pronouncing ba-BOON (like kaboom) for the second week in a row brought me to tears. And the fact that the other guys have just accepted it as reality is even funnier. I have a nephew that is just getting into fist bumps and I'm planning on teaching him to say baboon when he does the blow up part. Keep up the great work!
@@nathanmiller9918 "One seems kinda small. The probability is probably MUCH higher than that! This Gary guy doesn't know what he's on about." -- Most of Us Folks :D
@@Convergent-350 I was never notified. Still don't see the comment. For whoever Gary is - 1 is the highest probability. A sure thing. Everything else is percentages. Thanks, btw.
I think it's pretty on-par for this podcast when Breakfast calls Isaac Asimov "some guy." And then doubles down with "some writer." Love the show, so much. Keep it up, Folks! Hey Bear.
My husband and i haven't left our almost 5 year old with anyone to go on a date night in over 3 years! I just told my husband that if Nate comes to Vancouver, we are 100% going. Nate, please come to Vancouver, Canada and give us a much needed date night! Love this podcast...you guys are all great!!
My favorite part was when Aaron told Nate that he failed a class twice and Nate went on for several minutes asking Aaron to explain how the class works that he admittedly failed twice. 😂
Hello folks! Saw Nate and his dad in Greenville a few weeks ago and it was a pleasure. My wife and I can see where you get your sense of humor from. I work as a hospitalist physician and enjoy listening to the pod while looking up labs and notes on my patients for the day. In the hospital world of life and death everyday, your podcast is a happy part of my day that keeps me laughing instead of crying. P.S. I can’t believe no one has mentioned Slaine as Aaron’s doppelgänger?? Crosses my mind every time I watch “The Town” -Evan Madden from Greenwood SC
Absolutely loved this episode! I started working in a local floral shop at age 12, local pizza place through high school and a local bank as an adult. All of those business owners helped me learn the importance of great customer service. The downside is that now I'm saddened by the major decline in customer service in so many industries. It makes me want to start a "mom" lecture when I see employees not being professional and making the customer feel appropriated. Thank you for letting us listen in on great conversation and needed humor each week!
Because Nate looks like a child I often forget how good of a Man he seems to be. I loved his view about what’s expected of an artist.. just the moral side of it spoke to me . Great pod gentlemen
All the robot take-over talk reminded me of the 1993 movie 'Demolition Man', with A.I. just watching and monitoring people all the time, everywhere - that seems way creepier than cool, but I agree with Aaron that it will happen so gradually that we won't notice until we are in it fully and it is too late, and, therefore, robots definitely should not have self-perservation instructions. Side note: Dusty couldn't be in the group shot of the schedule release video because he was supposed to be up on stage (as per blurry Big Foot shot shown earlier). Love seeing the four of you doing things together. Keep the laughs coming!
Ahh man I loved Logic in college! My teacher called me out after the first test because I didn't write any work down because I could do it in my head. She told me that she gets 1 or 2 student a year that can do that so I have some weird propensity for that stuff for some reason. Got a 98 in that class somehow. I asked her what I should do with this and she said I could teach logic lol
Having worked at a University for nearly 30 years, Aaron's surprise that the University did not hand him his actual degree had me cracking up. Then to double down on it by saying some of his friends had the same thing happen was hilarious. Universities hold their commencement ceremonies the last week of the semester which is also finals week. They don't give out the actual diplomas at commencement because they don't know if the student will actually pass all their classes and graduate. They mail the diplomas a few weeks later once the grades for the semester are recorded. If you graduate in December and walk the next May, they still will mail the diploma to you because it is too hard to have your diploma in the degree holder when hundreds or thousands of students are going to walk across the stage in any given ceremony. Hey Bear! and go Chico State Wildcats!
Nate’s logic is spot on when he immediately finds the flaw in “robot laws” with the VERY 1st one Bates, Brian-Bates reads. Quite brilliant. Love this podcast, y’all are so great and make my morning drives the best!
1:42:12 it's funny how relatable this robots podcast is to farmers. Having worked markets for farmers and my art, nothing drives me crazier than vendors not being attentive to the people interested in buying stuff! Thanks for another great episode.
Nate waited to episode 149 to ask Aaron a personal question like what did you go to college for? Maybe by episode 200 he will ask if Aaron has siblings.
I was waiting in line for the show in Richmond, VA and there was a hawk that flew up on the street light right next to us holding a rabbit. We got to see a real life animal fight and the hawk definitely won..
I've been going back and re-watching old episodes in my downtime lately. I stumbled across the Jay Cutler and Indiana episode. Nate mentioned Corey Chavous being one of his favorite Vandy players ever which brought back memories for me. I'm a Vikings fan living in Indiana and Chavous was my favorite player growing up. Another reason to love Nate and the show
Imagining Dusty with beaks on his fingers is the most delightfully dark thing I've heard all month. I can imagine him done out in full "Lord of the Gulls" regalia.
My wife and I saw Nate in Greenville this weekend to celebrate our anniversary and it was so much fun! I'm more familiar with Nate than my wife so in preparation for the show we watched some of Nate's old bits on UA-cam and at one point my wife asked "Why does he look like a depressed chubby 12 year old?" 😂
I started telling my parents and siblings about the AI writers for Ted Lasso, but had to lead with, “I learned all the information from Nateland” and they became more interested after that. We all love you and can’t wait to see you in Ft Worth!
I work for a University. If it makes Aaron feel any better, most colleges do not hand out actual diplomas on stage at the graduation ceremony. Everyone gets a diploma cover or a rolled-up, blank sheet of paper, and then the actual degrees are conferred shortly after and mailed out by the end of the month. So, while Aaron was handed an empty "diploma", it's very likely that he received the same thing as his peers that day.
I see Nate opening the podcast staring super hard at the advertisement page and still messing the words up. I feel like I'm back at home, you ALL rock and make hump day worth finishing the rest of the week laughing.
I remember first hearing about robots on the news about 15-20 years ago (actual robots…not cartoon TV robots). They reported that these robots were programmed to feel “happiness, sadness, pain, and anger”. The first one I get…nothing wrong with a bunch of happy robots running around…but how much hubris do these robot scientists have to program robots to feel sadness, pain, and subsequent anger? I swear…if this is what leads to our downfall, I will blame those robot scientists.
The three laws of robotics come from author Isaac Asimov and showed up in a collection of short stories called "I, Robot", which is what the movie was based on. The stories, and the movie, delve quite a bit into the shortcomings of the laws, similar to what you guys talked about
Nate is bang on with his Moose stories, they are much bigger than most people realize but even crazier is how fast they are considering their weight. They can reach speeds up to 35 mph, about the same as a charging rhino. I have seen lots of Moose living up in Canada but nothing beats the time I saw one get spooked crossing a highway and jumped clean over the car in front of us, had to be 8-10 feet off the ground and cleared 2 lanes. Hit the ground running too.
Dusty, I knew adding you to the podcast was the right decision. Knowing I share a birthday with you made my birthday even better! I already share one with my favorite musician, king George Strait, now I share it with one of my favorite comedians. I’m having a good time this birthday!
Just waiting for the Boise Shows and was watching again the first episode of the podcast and started looking at the shelves in the back. Noticed some changes from the most current episode. You have increased your collection of Baseball paraphernalia. I am obsessed with this podcast so fun and such a break from the rest of the week. Keep it up. I tried to attach my screen shot of the first episode but I am more Breakfast's age and couldn't figure it out.
Hello folks. I am a high school Geometry teacher. I might be able to give a basic understanding of logic with the spider statement. Assume "All spiders have 8 legs is true" so Dusty cannot come in with a spider missing one leg (This is a counterexample). Then, if you know the black widow is a spider, then you know it has 8 legs. But, if you know the black widow has 8 legs, you cannot prove it is a spider with the first statement. You could say the black widow may be another animal with 8 legs like a scorpion. Love listening to the Podcast. Nate, Aaron, Eggs Benedict, and Dusty are my goto each Wednesday. I get it. Can't wait to see Nate in Bowling Green!
This is why I have to wait till the end of the episode before I rage comment. I cannot believe you said some writer and then mentioned I freaking robot which is from Asimov's book and has the three laws in it and is the movie where it shows that the three laws don't work. You guys are awesome!
After watching you folks argue so passionately and make such elaborate explanations over scenarios that will never happen, you should have an episode in which yall play the card game SuperFight. Who would win? Genghis Khan wearing ice skates with tennis rackets for hands versus a dozen kindergarteners that can teleport, but can’t move for one minute after doing so.
Hi guys. Love your podcast! Nate, Aron and Budlight, you guys are a very entertaining trio and the addition of Dusty has been immaculate (good luck with that one nate). I'm an author (trying my best ) and I'm currently working on a very early stage of a 3 part novel. My question is, would you guys mind if I borrowed the romantic episode between Dusty and Tam? Love from India 🇮🇳 HEY BEAR!!
Maybe the artist who wrote “I hate shipping” meant shipping as is in the fandom world. Shipping in the fandom world is about pairing characters together who fans want to see together (usually romantically) but that aren’t cannon to the actual story. Shipping is short form of “Relationship”. But it can be very divisive and some people really do hate it. Love the podcast. Keep up the good work, 🤗. 1:39:02
When we moved from TN to Boston, the local grocery chain near us had a security robot named Marty that would follow you around closely and say “patrolling” every few minutes. Very annoying and always in the way. It was pretty scuffed up and we asked an employee about it. He said that they regularly had to deal with annoyed customers punching it. I have to say it was a humorous sight to see elderly men cursing at a robot that came to their knees in a thick Boston accent.
Hey bear just wanted to let Aaron know that everyone who walks across the stage at graduation gets a fake diploma. They mail you the real one later high school and college
This was a great episode. I think Dusty is starting to rub off on Nate. He's starting to sound more and more like a conspiracy theorist, which is a good thing these days.
Howzit from South Africa, Haven't even finished the episode but speaking of taking on lions (or seagulls) you'd love the story of Harry Wolhuter. He successfully defended himself against a lion attack, using only his wits and a knife. I've seen the lion skin, which is riddled with slits from Harry's knife, hanging in a museum in the Kruger National Park. Wild stuff. Enjoy the story fellas.
Thanks Dane. There's a handful of famous Sikh warriors that have killed a lion bare handed. Also they did use elephants in battles. And a mother elephant will be aggressive when there's danger to her youngins.
In 15 years, I have NEVER met anyone who has seen The Island (and I bring it up quite a bit). It’s the strangest movie but the one I think about the most, so it makes sense that Dusty has seen it. The rest of you should watch it and do a podcast discussing The Island.
You can go to Law School with any four year degree. You need to pass the LSAT (Law School Admissions Test). GPA of 3.59 with an LSAT of 165 would get you into the top 10 law schools. LSAT score range 120-180. 160 is in the top 80th percentile. LSAT median scores for Columbia, Harvard, Yale sit around LSAT 173 with a Median GPA of 3.75-3.9.
Was listening to the Stuff You Should Know podcast’s recent episode “The Colosseum” and they mentioned Nate and his comedy for some reason. Made me realize The Nateland Podcast is a lot like SYSK, but with a little more humor and a lot less information.
As a teacher I'm not worried about AI. Years ago when books became a thing (maybe Brian was still in school?), some speculated there would no longer be a need for teachers. The number of teachers expanded exponentially. I teach middle school students and it's very easy to tell if they used a program or their parents on an assignment. One option is to have them fact check or find sources for what the AI program writes. I'll go proofread this now.
In HS (1996-1997) timeframe I took Spanish and learned of an English-Spanish translator website. Every assignment was input and copied the answer. Being a dumb teenager when I would get assignments back 100% with comments from the teacher “how do you know how to do this? We haven’t covered this yet” my dumb adolescent mind would actually wonder if he knew, not like failing every test didn’t give it away too.
Hey Bear, I was in my driveway and watched as a postal service vehicle backed up away from a mailbox so it could make a turn. Thought about asking the driver if he knew he was breaking a pretty serious rule, but figured I’d let it slide this time.
The robot could technically just sacrifice itself to stop it from hurting someone, without injuring the person that is attempting to cause harm. The third rules doesn’t force the robot to protect itself from humans bc it prohibits them from hurting humans for self preservation.
I would love all the guys perspective: I had a psychology teacher in college who argued that altruism is impossible because that would require a person or groups of people to have absolutely no selfish motive when deciding to act. I agree that altruism is impossible but I love bringing this up with groups of people because it sparks quite the discussion. What do you guys think, is altruism impossible?
Nate mentioned robots checking vitals etc & essentially eradicating accidents. Aren't accidents the one thing keeping stupid people from overpopulating & securing a majority. I think we can all agree that "accidents" are very necessary to our social construct and a successful society. LoL
Most high school graduates get the book with nothing in it. When I graduated in 1988 I had to go back to my high school and pick up my diploma, as did my brothers when they graduated in 1986 and 1994. My daughter graduated in 2022 and had to go back to the high school to pick up her diploma. Aaron, you were kinda an imposter by walking with your class since you failed 2 classes, but the other kids weren't because there's usually nothing in the book.
Hello Folks and hey Bear! The most accurate thing ever said on this podcast was, “people at desk shouldn’t be telling farmers how to farm.” Coming from a farmer it is getting ridiculous! I’m all for the safety of consumers and environment, but we got written up by food safety because deer tracks were found in our field. They suggested we put up signs to keep deer out. Hate to break it to the lady, but as far as I know deer can’t read. What do I know though I’m just a backwoods farmer. Love you guys!
Have you looked into an invisible fence?
@@justkate2529 I haven’t but I will! They typically don’t hurt anything just walk around. Any suggestions on brands or models?
Nate!!! You can’t steal Brian’s spotlight!
Regarding robots: Ray Bradbury published a short story titled “The Pedestrian” in 1951. The main character gets arrested by a robotic police car because he is out walking at night. He is taken to the “Psychiatric Center for Research on Regressive Tendencies” because he’s not home on his electronics like the rest of the city. When I teach this story to my sophomores, we have a fabulous discussion about technology. Then the bell rings and they file out with their eyes glued to their phones.
Dusty being the only child to in his family graduate high school is more impressive than Aaron's entire family having double majors
It's easy when you have money, when you don't- it's an actual effort.
@@justkate2529Yes. Turns out the MAIN ingredient for a child to be the first family member to attend college is money. Just the ability to afford it. Not being told you’ll go to college, not grades, not gender, not color.
I’ll agree to say he’s awesome.
The robot snake is coming straight for the trailer parks of America!
Nate, I’m the guys that gave you the challenge coin at the last Jacksonville show.
Y’all need to do an episode on college with an college advisor so Nate can ask all his questions about why they do the things they do.
They did a two parter on college. No advisor though.
I start to feel bad for Aaron getting raked over the comment coals, then he goes and tries to justify fighting a lion over 100 seagulls and I'm like, "ah that's right, that's how we got here in the first place."
I dont know what it is but when I listen to Dusty, even when he is telling a not funny story, I start to laugh. Love him.
It’s 2:12 am and I “need” to get to sleep- but nooooo- I’m binge watching Nateland! And laughing - Thank you guys! I was having a bad day❤️
I’m a phd student in philosophy at the University of South Florida, and I loved Aaron’s brief excursion into formal logic. Although, I’m very disappointed to hear you failed it twice, I will from now on only use the phrase, “dusty has a dog,” when teaching my logic undergraduate students
I laughed so hard when Aaron asked if that lady was barefoot because that's EXACTLY how I pictured her 😂

You guys should look up Norm McDonald’s joke about his neighbor who taught logic in NYC

He stole that joke from Alvarez Guedes. I like Norm, but that’s not an original joke.

I like how they are acting mad at Bryan at the robot rules like he wrote the rules 😂
Hi guys. Love your podcast! Nate, Aron and Budlight, you guys are a very entertaining trio and the addition of Dusty has been immaculate (good luck with that one nate). I'm an author (trying my best ) and I'm currently working on a very early stage of a 3 part novel. My question is, would you guys mind if I borrowed the romantic episode between Dusty and Tam? Love from India 🇮🇳 HEY BEAR!!
YEE-YEE! TAM-TAM THANK YA MA'AM!
I love how Aaron immediately corrects Bates when he says Roomba wrong but they give Aaron a pass every time he says wolf.
Richmond 4PM Folks represent!
Great One!
Maybe the artist who wrote “I hate shipping” meant shipping as is in the fandom world. Shipping in the fandom world is about pairing characters together who fans want to see together (usually romantically) but that aren’t cannon to the actual story. Shipping is short form of “Relationship”. But it can be very divisive and some people really do hate it. Love the podcast. Keep up the good work, 🤗. 1:39:02
Nate just trying to push through Brian's attempt of a joke while Dusty reads the Rocket Money ad had me dying.
“Giraffe talking to a mice” is a great band name.
Does Nate have a hat room larger than my bedroom or does he just burn/retire each hat after he wears them?
When we moved from TN to Boston, the local grocery chain near us had a security robot named Marty that would follow you around closely and say “patrolling” every few minutes. Very annoying and always in the way. It was pretty scuffed up and we asked an employee about it. He said that they regularly had to deal with annoyed customers punching it. I have to say it was a humorous sight to see elderly men cursing at a robot that came to their knees in a thick Boston accent.
Hearing Breakfast call Issac Asimov some guy made me want to walk into traffic
Capybaras’ also have feet that look peculiarly dinosaur-ish if you give it a google. Maybe they have dinosaur ancestors as well!
Those three rules listed were from the movie I, Robot 😂
The book, written in 1950, by Isaac Asimov.
The McDonald’s robot video says order for Sarah Connor, terminator reference?
Hey bear just wanted to let Aaron know that everyone who walks across the stage at graduation gets a fake diploma. They mail you the real one later high school and college
This wasn’t true at my high school or college
Can’t wait to see your special, Dusty!!
This was a great episode. I think Dusty is starting to rub off on Nate. He's starting to sound more and more like a conspiracy theorist, which is a good thing these days.
Norm Macdonald made a great joke about a "professor of logic" on conan i think. Very funny.
Howzit from South Africa,
Haven't even finished the episode but speaking of taking on lions (or seagulls) you'd love the story of Harry Wolhuter. He successfully defended himself against a lion attack, using only his wits and a knife. I've seen the lion skin, which is riddled with slits from Harry's knife, hanging in a museum in the Kruger National Park. Wild stuff.
Enjoy the story fellas.
Thanks Dane. There's a handful of famous Sikh warriors that have killed a lion bare handed. Also they did use elephants in battles. And a mother elephant will be aggressive when there's danger to her youngins.
In 15 years, I have NEVER met anyone who has seen The Island (and I bring it up quite a bit). It’s the strangest movie but the one I think about the most, so it makes sense that Dusty has seen it. The rest of you should watch it and do a podcast discussing The Island.
Does my boy Aaron got the Durham bulls on?!
Formal logic was the hardest class I ever took.
Dusty believing he would pass any formal Logic class might be the funniest part of the whole pod.
Someone should compile all of things that Nate claims to think about "Every Day"
The best AI is not more creative than the best creative humans.
You can go to Law School with any four year degree. You need to pass the LSAT (Law School Admissions Test). GPA of 3.59 with an LSAT of 165 would get you into the top 10 law schools. LSAT score range 120-180. 160 is in the top 80th percentile. LSAT median scores for Columbia, Harvard, Yale sit around LSAT 173 with a Median GPA of 3.75-3.9.
Jacksonville incorporated the county making it one of the largest cities in the states. That’s why they chant Duval, the county name.
Was listening to the Stuff You Should Know podcast’s recent episode “The Colosseum” and they mentioned Nate and his comedy for some reason. Made me realize The Nateland Podcast is a lot like SYSK, but with a little more humor and a lot less information.
Just listened to that one this evening!
As a Catholic I must interject, we put the Bible together w 73 books, others came along and took some of them out.
Nate argues about the robots laws and at the end who wrote them was funny
The intro to Terminator 2 still scares me
My favorite part of this episode was when my 10yr old turned to me and asked what a “toe sucker” is.
As a teacher I'm not worried about AI. Years ago when books became a thing (maybe Brian was still in school?), some speculated there would no longer be a need for teachers. The number of teachers expanded exponentially.
I teach middle school students and it's very easy to tell if they used a program or their parents on an assignment. One option is to have them fact check or find sources for what the AI program writes.
I'll go proofread this now.
In HS (1996-1997) timeframe I took Spanish and learned of an English-Spanish translator website. Every assignment was input and copied the answer. Being a dumb teenager when I would get assignments back 100% with comments from the teacher “how do you know how to do this? We haven’t covered this yet” my dumb adolescent mind would actually wonder if he knew, not like failing every test didn’t give it away too.
@@Maximum_Goodness 😆😆😆😆We usually know.
Hey Bear, I was in my driveway and watched as a postal service vehicle backed up away from a mailbox so it could make a turn. Thought about asking the driver if he knew he was breaking a pretty serious rule, but figured I’d let it slide this time.
The robot could technically just sacrifice itself to stop it from hurting someone, without injuring the person that is attempting to cause harm.
The third rules doesn’t force the robot to protect itself from humans bc it prohibits them from hurting humans for self preservation.
Dusty is Sasquach
Let it be known that Batman Bates was unimpressed with a literal tiger while Alfred was no match for a turkey. Hey Bear.
I would love all the guys perspective: I had a psychology teacher in college who argued that altruism is impossible because that would require a person or groups of people to have absolutely no selfish motive when deciding to act. I agree that altruism is impossible but I love bringing this up with groups of people because it sparks quite the discussion. What do you guys think, is altruism impossible?
I refuse to believe it! Maybe nobody is altruistic all the time but people definitely behave altruistically all the time.
Nate mentioned robots checking vitals etc & essentially eradicating accidents. Aren't accidents the one thing keeping stupid people from overpopulating & securing a majority. I think we can all agree that "accidents" are very necessary to our social construct and a successful society. LoL
Most high school graduates get the book with nothing in it. When I graduated in 1988 I had to go back to my high school and pick up my diploma, as did my brothers when they graduated in 1986 and 1994. My daughter graduated in 2022 and had to go back to the high school to pick up her diploma. Aaron, you were kinda an imposter by walking with your class since you failed 2 classes, but the other kids weren't because there's usually nothing in the book.
