[00:05:43]>> Right.

[00:05:45]>> Yeah. You didn't have a lot of items in the cart, just a few items. Do you Do you normally buy just five five or so things at a time when you grocery shop?

[00:06:41]>> it's not very random. This is a podcast.

[00:06:43]That's what we do here.

[00:06:44]>> I did just ask you the question.

[00:06:46]>> Right. So, do you believe that animals are conscious sentient beings like you, me, or your dog?

[00:06:53]>> My dog My dog's dead, so no.

[00:06:57]>> Okay. Well, when you did have a dog, did you believe he was of the same level of worth as you?

[00:07:04]>> Honestly, no.

[00:07:05]>> I mean, I think you know, when you talk about killing a dog versus killing a human, it shouldn't be the same penalty.

[00:07:12]>> True, and they can't talk. And they're not as intelligent as us.

[00:07:16]>> So, then a person with disabilities who doesn't have the ability to talk and might not be of the same intellectual ability that you are, you would put them in that category?

[00:07:26]>> Yeah, so I wouldn't compare humans with animals cuz, you know, they're my species, so whatever their abilities, I probably wouldn't want to eat them.

[00:07:35]>> I dated a vegan once. She was more of the to each their own type.

[00:07:39]>> you were going to say that she didn't wear deodorant and that was a deal breaker.

[00:07:42]>> Oh, yeah. Yeah, aluminum thing.

[00:07:44]>> I really need the aluminum.

[00:07:45]That's how bad it is.

[00:07:46]>> Yeah, no, there's actually a lot of studies showing the dangers of aluminum accumulation in the body.

[00:07:51]Particularly in breast tissue.

[00:07:52]>> I actually heard all that wasn't really true.

[00:07:55]>> Well, the right man's going to love your natural scent.

[00:07:57]>> Yeah, I mean, I probably didn't like her natural scent, or whatever that organic [ __ ] was she was wearing.

[00:08:02]>> And what is that that you're wearing?

[00:08:05]>> Oh, me? You can smell that?

[00:08:07]>> He's talking to the producer.

[00:08:09]>> Smells to me like it's uh a nectarine?
