Rise and Outshine Podcast Showcase

Hey, everybody, we are live. We've got a great show lined up tonight. This is

the Rise and Outshine Podcast showcase. And as you know, on this show, we

bring on a podcaster. They showcase their show for about 10

minutes and you, the audience at home, gets to

vote, critique and talk about what you just experienced.

So on your phone, you can pull up this link menti.com and

type in that code or use your phone and scan

that QR code. There'll be different criteria. You can grade

on audio quality and the host, engaging

host. The quality of the content, does the content match the expectation?

So while you're doing that at home, I'm going to bring my co host and

introduce you to Maria Daniels. Maria, welcome.

Hello. I am excited to be here. Hello.

Hello. Maria and Wise have been taking turns filling in

as co hosts because we are ramping up towards a big event,

September 2025, where we did it last year and

we've done it for a few years virtually. But now that we have the podcast

theater, we're going to bring back the shows that score the best

over this year and bring them to Pittsburgh and

host them live on our main stage at our Paduti Podcast

theater. So, Maria,

I guess. I guess you weren't here last week. So you're back this week. I

am back this week. I don't remember what weeks I was here, I'll be honest.

And I didn't realize until just now that we're taking turns. I guess

we have been taking turns. That wasn't a plan, I don't think, though. No. I

don't know if you two are working together. No, I think it just

worked out that way. But, yeah, I'm excited. I'm excited about the show. I've

liked this show ever since it was first introduced to me and I'm

excited to be ramping up for the big

reveal in September, which is basically where Wise drags

everyone to your studio in Pittsburgh.

Sounds good. We'll have all the dates and details. Coming up for the big event,

we have the Flat Earth podcast with Flat Earth Dave coming up next.

Let's hear that theme song. We're asking the experts.

We're all on a mission to rise. In the rankings and

outshine the competition. Welcome

to Rise and Outshine.

And Dave, officially welcome to the show Flat Earth Dave from

Flat Earth. Dave.com, the Flat Earth podcast. Is there a theme coming

up for the next 10 minutes? It's. Yes, a little bit. A little bit of

a theme. And it's. The theme is Everything you know is a lie,

whether you want to believe it or not. So thanks for having me on Maria

and Jeff. And this is going to be a little different show than you

maybe used to. Yeah, we're really excited about this. And, and

again, the content is going to be the fun part, I think, tonight, and learning

something and expanding our minds. But part of what we're doing on this show

is we're giving back real time feedback to

podcasters. So, you know, as we learn about new things over the next 10

minutes, folks at home, you know, you'll pull up your phone and as you can

see on my phone, you're able to score and give

points to Dave on audio quality, the engaging host, the

quality of the content, does that content match the expectation

and production quality? How did it do overall? And after

that, you're able to fill out a word cloud. And what we want you to

do is type in anything that you hear,

feel, if you're inspired, engaged,

motivated, any kind of words that you associate. Maybe it's a

quote from the show tonight or, you know, I ask a silly question,

you know, something you've felt or wanted to

share, type that into the word cloud. It's really a cool feature because at the

end of the show, at the end of the 10 minutes, what we'll do is

give back that word cloud in the scoring to Dave and just kind of

review, like, how did it go? What was it like? It's probably the most nerve

wracking part of the show is the scoring at the end, but it's always done

with love and respect. We're only doing this to lift each other up

and showcase our talents as podcasters and help each other

grow in different ways. We can all learn and take a new tip here and

there. So I don't have any other

questions. And the way we're going to do this one is a little different.

We're going to stay on Maria and I and Dave

is going to walk us through, just kind of helping us figure out

what we think we know and you know, and go from there.

But before we get started and start the timer, Dave, tell us a little

bit about how did you get started in the podcasting and even on

this whole track that you're on. So I was working in corporate

America and my buddy and I in the lunchroom, we were talking about some

conspiracy stuff like the Federal Reserve, the irs. And every

day more and more people would gather around us and one day my buddy Tim

goes, hey, there's a new podcast studio opening up in New York City, I didn't

even know what a podcast was back then. And we can do a

podcast and spread our information farther. So we

started a podcast called Deep Inside the Rabbit Hole. And

it was a very viral, very big podcast. And then in the third

year, people started sending me flat Earth stuff. We're looking into

conspiracies. Open minded. Flat Earth, one step too far.

I'm not watching your one minute video. You're banned for life. Banned for life. Banned

for life. Banned for life. Just for even suggesting that we look. But then

another researcher forced me to look. I went in with a closed

attitude saying, flat Earth is stupid. I'm gonna disprove it, prove the globe,

and be done with all of this nonsense. And for two weeks, I didn't sleep.

Excuse me, two weeks I didn't sleep because everything that

I thought I knew, I didn't know. So before you tune out, before you

say, this guy's nuts, and maybe I am not, because I'm offering

three bitcoins. You guys know what a bitcoin is, right? Bitcoin?

Yes, yes. I think it's at $99,000 right now. So that's almost

$300,000 for one globe proof.

If you think I'm nuts, that's because you think the Earth is a globe. If

you think the Earth is a globe, you probably or should

have a reason for that. And if you can give me that legitimate

reason, you win. Three bitcoins. It's that simple.

All right, very nice. What did you buy the bitcoin at?

You might not want to turn them over. Yeah, well, it doesn't matter. It doesn't.

It doesn't matter. What you bought them at turning them over. It's turning them over.

So when you think flat earth, you think this. Whoops, that's not what I want

to show you. But you think a disc in space because

that's what they, that's what they give you, Right? This, this is two

false models in one. No flat Earther believes that. Right.

And people say we're all programmed to say, oh, what are we, the only pancake

planet or the other planet's pancakes? Right. This is called a false

binary. You got two false models, a false heliocentric model,

and a false flat Earth model. Right.

So what is the flat Earth? Well, the flat Earth is where we live.

We live on a flat, non rotating topographical plane.

Right here is the Earth at 120,000ft. We

sent this balloon up. It was up for three and a half hours. Now the

Earth is spinning east to west at 1,000

miles an hour at the equator, 1,000 miles an hour because it's just over

24,000 miles around. It spins once a day. 1,000 miles an

hour, right? It's spinning to the east. So this

balloon should have landed west maybe 3,000 miles to the

west, but it landed 80 miles to the east. So not only

did it rise up, it outran the Earth because it has to

go faster to just to keep up to where it took off from because it's

making a bigger circle. So there's one problem, and

there's a million other problems. We only have 10 minutes. Normally, I've

done over 1200 interviews since 2021. And every single time we

go an hour, two hours, and they all invite me back because they want more

information. So an example I'll just jump right

to it is we can see. Too

far right here is in

Malibu, California. We can see Mount

San Jacinto. I finally got that right. And

at this distance 123 miles, there should be over

7,000ft of curvature. That's what the

globe math says. So we should only see the very tip of this mountain. Now,

this is with infrared, right? An infrared camera, so

we can cut through the haze. If you took off that, if you turned off

the infrared, this is just blue sky and there's no mountain. Then you

say, well, of course you can't see the mountain because the Earth is curved, right?

1. I'll give you one quick.

Another quick one. Here's a frozen lake,

right? Large bodies of water at rest

lie flat. We all know that we need containment. Water needs containment. You

can't take a bath if the side of the bathtub isn't there. You can't have

a pond if the side of the pond isn't there. You don't have a lake

without the side of the lake, and you don't have a pond. The world oceans

without the sides of the oceans. So here's a canal, a lake,

whatever you want to call it. We got a camera six inches off the ice.

We put these four lights out here, one at eight miles, seven miles,

six miles and five miles. And according to globe

math. Globe math, not flat earth math, right? This should

be 30ft below that curve. You can't see my

mouth because it's below this curve, right? A physical

curve. A globe is required to have a physical curve at a certain

distance, 22ft, 15 and 9ft. So

you have to believe one of two things, that the Earth is

flat and we're just Seeing these along the flat ice,

or we're seeing a tangent to the Earth. And then each one of

these is refracting a word that globe believers like to

use, which means it's. It's miraging up and stopping at eye

level. This one's going up, you know, 9ft, 15ft,

you know, 30ft, right. And they all stop right at eye

level to trick you into thinking that the Earth

is flat. Or maybe that's. The Earth is

flat. So do

you have a question at this point? All right, I can

keep going. Yeah, no, go ahead. Yeah, no, no, no

problem. No problem here is I'm going to put my hand

up here so you don't see this. So. Whoops. That's again, the second

time I did that. So here is a. Looking across

Chicago. Looking. Looking across,

like, Lake Michigan to Chicago. And you can't see

Chicago because it's over 50 miles away. And at that distance. Oh, I'm

not. I'm not showing you. I'm sorry. There we go. At that

distance, I'm probably gonna get a bad rating for that, but here we go. It's

okay. You can't see Chicago because

the tops of the buildings would be 100 or more

feet below the curve. But when the sun

backlights it, when the sun backlights it,

you can see it. It's there. It's just you can't see the light that's

bouncing off of it. So once you learn things like the

angular resolution limits of our eyes perspective, how

what the horizon is, what the atmospheric horizon is, what land horizons

is, and how it all pushes into your horizontal

I zone or your horizon, then

you start understanding why. Why the.

Why we see the world the way we see it. Boats over the

horizon is always a big one. People say, you know, I've

seen. I've seen boats go over the horizon, because that's the one that got me.

When I first saw. They said the Earth was flat, I was

like, I've seen boats go over the horizon. And

you think you do. You can see a boat disappear. And so when you look

at the horizon, when you look at the sky, the sky and the land come

together to the point where you can't see the difference anymore. And then you

think, that's Earth curve. But here is a horizon.

And as we're zooming in, there's no boat out here, right? There's no boat. But

as we increase our angular size, all of a sudden our eye

realizes, look, there is a boat there. It's just our ability

to see it. Now, my finger can't hide that boat unless

my finger was a wave in the foreground. And that finger

then will hide the entire boat as these little waves are making

the boat look like it's going below the horizon.

So to somebody that was indoctrinated by Bill Nye,

the lying guy with the bow tie, we would think that that is

Earth curve. But that is just the way our eyes see and

way perspective works. There are a million

other proofs that the Earth is flat. Some people

like seasons. Seasons is one of my favorite

ones. Now, you guys know it is

our summer when we are tilted towards the sun,

right? You with me? Yes. Yes. Yeah. Yes. When we are

tilted towards the sun and when we are tilted away, it's the

angle the rays come in that give us our

winter, right? But seasons actually prove

flat Earth. So let me show you real quick. What if you and

I were. Where is it? Okay,

so we're outside and it's freezing cold,

and somebody comes over with a heat lamp and is holding it right above one

of us, right? So if I said to

you. I said, all right, this is me and this is one of

you, right? And I said, okay, where's your. Where do

you see that heat lamp? The sun. And you're like. It's right up there. It's

high in the sky and you're warm because it's close to

you. I see it from over here. And it's at

like a 40 degree angle. It's low in the sky. So

that's my winter sun. So our sun travels between

the Tropic of Cancer. I'll show you that in a second. And the Tropic of

Capricorn every six months. So keeping it at the same

height, if I bring it over, it's getting lower

in the sky for you. It's getting higher in the sky for me.

I'm warm, you're cold. My winter, your

summer. That's simply how it works.

Seasons are not because of the angle of the sun. It's

because of the distance of the sun on a

globe. It's cold in the morning with a

93 million mile away sun.

It's warm in the afternoon with a 93

million mile away sun. And it's colder in the

evening with a 93 million mile away sun. Because this

little distance of a couple hundred or a thousand miles is nothing. It's

point zero zero, whatever percentage of that distance. So there's no

difference there. But on a flat Earth, we have a

small local sun, we have a distant sun in the morning, not that

far, but farther, colder. We have a

warmer sun in the afternoon because it's closer. And then

it gets cooler as it moves away. The sun circles around

the Earth very easily

within the Earth system. Here's my app. It's called the Flat Earth, Sun, Moon

and Zodiac Clock app. And the sky is a perfect clock. Wherever

the sun is, it's noon. The sun keeps track of the hours and the

days. It goes around once a day. This is the moon. If

I speed it up, you'll see that the sun is going to outrun the moon.

And the moon's getting. It's waxing, so it'll lap the

moon every 28, 29 days.

And so the moon keeps track of the weeks and the

months. There used to be 13 months of

28 days plus one day to reset the year. That's

365. But now we have 30, 29,

28, 31. Right. And they make our clocks go around

twice a day instead of once a day, so we never figure out where we

are. And then on top of that, if you add the stars,

the stars are going slightly faster than the sun,

but they lap the sun once every 365 times

around. The stars keep track of the seasons and the years, so the sun

will drift back into each zodiac for about a

month. And that's how we keep time. The sky

clock is more accurate than any Swiss watch or anything

because the sky clock is what time is

that? There's no way to measure time other than with the. With the sky clock.

So we live in this intelligently designed world

where we're told nonsense, but we're born

with God given common sense. But schooling

teaches us to memorize and regurgitate what the controllers

want us to know, right? The Rockefeller textbooks. If you want to

become a teacher, get straight A's, get honors, get a degree. All

you have to do is memorize and regurgitate and not

question, even if you disagree. If you disagree, you're going to end

up not getting the A. So we live in

this world of a belief system. For example, where do

I live? I

remember Connecticut. So do you believe it or do you

know it? I believe because you told me. Right?

So we all have to take information and we have to store it

as true or false, and we can't go verify everything.

So you looked at me, you're like, hey, he's a good guy. He sounds like.

I hear a little bit of a New York accent. Connecticut is next to New

York. Why would he lie? And you did all this processing in a split second,

and you stored it as truthful information. But gun to your head, do I live

in Connecticut? You'd be like, I don't know. I don't know. I'm not sure.

Right. So we live in a world where people

believe what other people say because we're trusting,

loving beings. But there's a lot of evil in this world that is out here

to dissuade us. So the question that you're going to jump to, which I normally

get to after about an hour, is why would they lie? What's the purpose?

Why? How is everybody in on it? And the answer is no, not

everyone's in on it. Very few people are in on it. But we've been indoctrinated

since we were babies. Right? What happens when you try to take a ball away

from a baby? Doesn't go well. Right. Well, try taking a ball away

from a big baby whose entire life is wrapped around a ball.

Space. Everything, everything is

about this globe that we live on. We dream of outer

space and all sorts of stuff and. But

that's our whole foundation. So if you can

believe that, you're on a speck of dust that came from

nothing. Once upon a time, there was nothing. It exploded. It became everything. And then

all the rocks turned into planets and all the gases, instead of violently filling

the available space, like thermodynamics tell us, the gases

collapse and turn into burning balls of gas in a space

vacuum. All of this is impossible if you think about it.

It's all. Breaks every law of physics, but they tell us, oh, that's what

it is, you know, just all the gas in space, it just. There's so much

of it. It collapses and burns for billions of years, you know, and the

sun is made of 99% helium and hydrogen. It could hold on to

Pluto, but it doesn't tug on our moon. Okay, What?

Where? This is all complete and total

nonsense. And we're all. We're all lost in space.

We are at the center of creation. We are powerful. God

created beings in a. In a. In a divinely created

world. And the controllers of this world want us living in fear

and doubt and want us to willingly give away our free

will. And they don't want, you know, they don't want you knowing that

your thoughts create reality, and they don't want you even thinking. It's like Truman in

the Truman Show. He said, you know, I want to be an explorer,

you know, and they're like, oh, there's nothing left to explore, Truman. You know, everything's

been. Everything's been taken care of. How much time do I have? I have

three minutes left. That was the 30 second timer just popped up.

30 seconds. I have something cool to show you,

but it's all right. We'll get there later.

We'll keep it going. 30 seconds. Two minutes. Two minutes. All

right. So we don't need to speculate

what's beyond where we're allowed to go, but I want to point out something. We're

not allowed to explore Antarctica independently. We're not allowed to go

there independently and explore, but we saw some.

We have a ship tracking site, and we saw a ship that was

way, way out here, okay? And we're like, how does a

ship get that far into Antarctica? And that's like

730 miles. And we saw another one which

was 905 miles in. And when we click on any one of these

ships out here, tells us all the information, who the captain is, where it's going,

what cargo that's on. It gives us tons of information. This one said, register to

the nation of Kiribati, or Kiribati, spelled

Kiribati. And it's

850 meters long, 80 meters wide, which is a gigantic

ship. So this is a map. This is a

map that was found in a Buddhist

temple and published in a Hawaiian newspaper in

1907. And it showed all of these extra continents out here.

We're like, what is that? Well, America says that

Kiribati is a very important trade route. Where is

it? This is the Indian Ocean in the middle of nowhere. I had to put

a pin on it because you can't even see it is a sandbar. And they're

like, this is an important trade route. Right? China gave

them $10 billion. We gave them $10 billion recently. And we're like, what

the heck is going on out there? Right? And

on the island is a Captain Cook Hotel. If you don't know what

Captain Cook is, he's the guy that tried to circumnate, circumnavigate Antarctica, which should

have been 10 to 13,000 miles, but he ended up going

68,000 miles. And it took him three and a half

years just to go around Antarctica. That doesn't make any sense.

So I'm wrapping this up in a couple seconds. So where is

Kiribati? Well, first, if you break the Earth up at the

globe into time zones, you got from the North Pole to the south pole, you

got 24 lines. Those are your time zones. Sections like

an orange, right? And as it spins, wherever it's facing the sun, it's

noon there. Those are time zones. But there's one time zone that does this crazy

jig jag. And it never made any sense to me. But at this, which I

call the most suspicious spot is Kiribati, which

is bizarre. Why is it there? And check this out. There's

only 19 time zones in the inner north, 24 time zones

in between the two tropics, and 32 time zones in the south. They

never taught us that in school. That makes no sense. But if you took that

map and wrapped it around a basketball, those 32 would get

crunched together. And there's your globe. So

what. What is. So what is those? What

is why Is an important trade route. And this is why. This is what I'm

saying. Where to go?

So this is. This is that map I was telling you. What

if there was a trade route that went like

this from Kiribati out

here to these outer lands? What if there was people out

here on this extraterritory? What might you consider

them? Extraterraxtra.

Terrestrials from the outer space right here on

flat Earth. The idea of aliens from outer space in a

heliocentric system is ridiculous. The

closest star is 25 trillion miles away. And I'll end it with

this. The closest star is 25 trillion.

The other ones are massively farther away. So my

question to you is, how far is 25 trillion?

How long is 1 trillion seconds? You guys can both guess.

And if you guess it within one week, you win a Bitcoin.

Okay, one trillion seconds is. Yeah, one trillion seconds. You guess it within one week,

you win A Bitcoin. 24,000 years.

Wow. That you're close to anyone else. 31,000

years. Okay, 31,000 years.

25. So if we're going a mile per second for

31,000 years, we're only 1 25th of the way

to the closest star in a space vacuum, which is impossible

to. It's a. Nature abhors a vacuum.

And then when we get there, there's nothing there. We got to go to the

next star. It's a hundred times farther. Crazy. It's

crazy. So I tell people, go

to my website, flatter dave.com, check out there's a thing called the

crash course there. Watch those videos,

and then you two will know where you don't live. And that's on

a crazy globe. How's that? Awesome.

I don't remind everybody to start casting your votes. We're going to review all that

data in a second. And preparing for this show, I did a little research.

I, I came across the boats on the horizon. I was like, okay, there's,

there's something there that those boats thing. Then I was like, oh. Then I was,

I was like, oh. I remember somebody telling me once about cities, that

how come cities, you know, even in China you have these 10 mile long

cities of just skyscrapers after skyscraper after skyscrapers, yet they're all

parallel to each other. Whereas the one on the one

end and the one on the other one, why aren't they pointing away from each

other? If they're 10 miles apart, there wouldn't be any

variance in how upright that

skyscraper is. The globe argument of that is the amount of

degree tilt is very shallow, is very little,

and, and you might not see it. And I kind of agree with that. I'll

steel man that for the globe. You know, you can tell

if something is leaning backwards a little bit when you're looking at it. So

that's not the greatest argument, but yeah, it's a true argument if you had a

real way to measure it. And then the one

that on the map you showed us with the sun and the moon, I saw

some people put comments about day and night, but I was like, how about

a lunar eclipse where the earth blocks the moon?

How does that light, how would that work? Yes, where the

Earth gets between the moon and the sun. Yeah, so that's what we're told.

So you're assuming that the Earth gets in between

the sun and the moon.

The lunar eclipse, the earth gets in between the sun and the moon and we

have a lunar eclipse. So I'm just trying to pull up my eclipse. So

there's an eclipse called the selenillion

eclipse. Right. And let me explain what the selen eclipse is.

So when we have a lunar eclipse, you got the

sun, you got the moon, and then the Earth works its way

up and starts eclipsing. This is what we're

told is happening. And we see this beautiful curved shadow go

across and it goes like that. But there's a thing called

the selen eclipse which happens quite often. Over 50 documented

ones in recent history. And if you're standing here,

you're always at the top of the earth from your point of view. You got

the moon above the horizon on your left, you got the sun above the horizon

on your right, or vice versa. And if you can see

both of them, the eclipse can't start. Hasn't

started yet. But the eclipse does start and the

shadow comes in from the top. So what that

tells you is that it's not the earth doing it. Right. And you

know what scientists call a selenium eclipse? They call it the

impossible eclipse because it's impossible in this

model, but it happens. Therefore it doesn't happen.

Also, a sphere casting a shadow

onto another sphere. It comes in as an ellipse, it spreads

out and then it leaves as an ellipse. A sphere

onto another sphere doesn't come in with that perfect cookie cutter

shape. So there you go. There.

Awesome. Awesome. We, we went a little bit long. I wanted to let this,

the topic unfold. I know you said you would normally take a little bit more,

and for most podcasters who come on the show, 10 minutes really isn't enough.

But what we're trying to do is just get a taste, get a feel for

what you offer and what the show's about. One last

time. We got votes coming in already. Go ahead.

Everybody watching. We got 20 watching right now live. We can go

to those scores, but we'll give you a second. You can scan that

QR code on your screen using your phone or just open up another browser

and type in mentee.com and type in that eight digit

code. While you're doing it, you can go ahead and give

Dave some feedback. How'd things go tonight? Because I would say for.

We went about 15 minutes nonstop. You kept the

show moving, you kept us entertained,

you kept going. And I'll turn it over to Maria, too. Maria, what

were some of your take backs from? Well, you kept me awake, which is

huge. But no, I mean, I am a conspiracy

theory nut. I will admit it. That is a guilty pleasure that I have. So

I like, I love this stuff. I haven't decided

how I feel about flat earth because again, I'm a conspiracy theory

nut. But I can't 100% make it make sense in my mind. So I was,

yeah, I was engaged the whole time. I thought it was a great show. And

I like that you have the presentation and the visuals

that, you know, you know, you're able to kind of give in the live

broadcast, which really kind of helps with what, you know, what you're

saying. And you're engaging. You're very engaging. So

I enjoyed it. I thought it was great. Thanks.

I want to just give you a little. You're a

conspiracy theorist. But you know the difference between a conspiracy theorist and a

fact? It's like three to six. Three to six months. Okay.

Because all of the conspiracy theories are Becoming facts. I've been

doing this for 20 years, and everything I've done has come true.

Everything unfortunately, or, you know, some of them. Fortunately, but a lot of

unfortunately. On my app, I have the frequently

asked questions, Mark, and these are the frequently asked

questions. And I encourage people, if you're interested

in this, get the app and, you know, why the lie.

Great section. Where does the sun go? What about gravity? What about Coriolis?

This is hours and hours and days and days of

information, but you can narrow it down and find it. And all of this is

being hidden by Google. Right? There's a homeschool section, There's

a. There's a matchmaker, there's a friend

finder. There's all sorts of stuff on here. Social media,

it does everything. And here's the challenge for the three bitcoin. So you don't

waste my time and don't waste your own time every day. There's a featured video

right here. And just watch it while you're having your coffee in the morning or

your tea or do your breakfast. And for two weeks. At the end of that

two weeks, check the FAQs if you have a question.

And gotta warn you, if you do that, you're gonna end up

being a Flat Earther, so prepare yourself.

Awesome. Well, Dave, this is the part of the show. This is a podcast

showcase we went through and let the audience

judge and leave feedback for you. We have some great

votes coming in already. Are you ready to see the scores?

Yes. All right, here we go, everybody.

Here is the Flat Earth podcast and looks, oh,

9.1 overall, which is really strong.

Most of your scores are in the nines, which. Anything. Anything between

8 and, like, 9.5 is pretty, pretty good. That's. You're

hitting all the targets and you can see the background of each of

these. Gives you, like, a little plot, a little layout of where

people were falling in. So a lot of people in the nines

really felt the audio quality was great. You were doing great. You were

an engaging host with an 8.8. People liked you. They

resonated with you. The quality of the content was probably skewed the

highest. Right? You skewed. You had four tens coming in

there. Very nice. The content matches

expectations. Yeah. You told us what you're going to give us, and you gave us

that exactly. A lot of times people tell us they have a podcast and then

they spend 10 minutes talking about their trip to the grocery store. So

we want to reward that. That's something that's important that you get to the point.

Like Bon Jovi says, don't bore us. Get to the chorus. Right?

And you did that right off the bat. You were right in it. And the

production quality, great. Skewing 9.0 over

overall, 9.1 with all the criteria added

in. That's just as feedback from the people watching right

now, live. After seeing that, how do you feel,

you know, seeing those scores? I. That's awesome. Thanks so much. You know,

I've. I've done 1200 interviews since 2021. And by the way, Bon Jovi played

at my high school senior prom. That's how old I am.

That's awesome. I saw Bon Jovi with Cinderella

in 1988 at the Civic arena in Pittsburgh. All right,

there you go. That's all the best I can do. I. Not in a high

school prom. Yeah. So let's go.

Okay, good. No, go ahead, go ahead. So, yeah, so

overall, everything was there. You're hitting on all cylinders. Those are

good scores the whole way down. And this is a. This is a showcase to

elevate and lift and give good feedback to. And the audience

who was watching felt you were delivering on all those things. That's a

very strong score. Let's go to the word cloud. This is the one that

gets interesting. The one thing I want to say is, you

know, the way to engage with the crowd is just to be authentic to yourself.

I think we're all perfect souls. We're all literally angelic

souls in us. And if you're authentic to yourself, authentic to your

soul, everybody will love you.

And let's go to the word cloud, which we

don't censor. I have no idea. Some people figured out you can use

emojis. Let's see. How did people go? We got

35 responses popping in here. And the bigger that

the words are in the word cloud, that's the more times they were used. So.

So, Dave, you hit an interesting, engaging flat

earth. People were referencing some of your, like, the 123 miles of

visibility. I think that was with the mountain in the

background. Maybe San Jacinto. Yeah,

we have. I can't see because my eyes are. I got my night eyes on.

You know, fun new sense, truthful, truth. Awesome.

Everything I know is a lie. Somebody wrote that.

Loud, flat world. Sun circles, earth,

moon. Passionate. Passionate was a word that resonated there.

The heat lamp. Somebody referenced the heat lamp that you mentioned, too. So the

point of this is to get, like, just, you know, what were people feeling in

the moment while you were speaking? And 35 responses here.

What do you think about those ones? Anything resonate with you, Dave? I love it.

I love the whole thing. I love the word cloud, the just putting it all

together. It reminds me of the hive mind. Like if you have a

jar of jelly beans and you have 500 people guess and you

take the mean number, it's usually within one or two jelly beans.

Very nice. Anything else you'd like to talk about before we wrap it up

here tonight, Dave? I just want to tell people, don't believe anything I

say. Go do your homework. Everything is being hidden from you.

But you can find it all@flatteredave.com I want you to watch two

things there. One, you're going to see a video called Old World

Order. There's a nice big banner, old World Order.

Turn off Netflix for a night or forever and watch Old

World Order. It's going to change the way you're going to walk out in your

hometown. You're going to look around, you're going to go, how did I miss this?

How did I miss this? My whole life I never even thought about it, right?

You're going to find out that the reason you hated history in school is because

it's all lies. All of it. Right? And then the other thing is on my

website, you're going to see a button that says, big picture of me and it

says crash course. There's a list of videos

there that are being hidden from you. Google doesn't want you to see

them. Watch the first five videos and I guarantee your

life will be changed forever.
