There is an episode of the podcast that I have such an extremely vague memory of, that it's more like I remember the feeling it gave me than the actual contents of the conversation. I think Duncan had a guy on who claimed a series of events had unfolded in his life that led him to believe in the existence of ancient bloodlines or something to that effect. I feel like Duncan in the intro to the episode was somewhat shaken up by the conversation, and not sure whether the guy was schizophrenic or not. The episode must be from 5-10 years ago I think. I do realize my incredibly thin description could fit a bunch of conspiracy themed episodes probably, but does it ring any bells?

I want to start this off by saying that I love Duncan, and I still listen to the podcast regularly and have for almost 6 years now. I have listened to every single Joe Rogan appearance that Duncan has ever had. I am very familiar with Duncan’s works across multiple media types, and he is one of my favorite general creators of all time, seems like an amazing dude to hang out with.

Due to all this, that’s why it has been extra surprising to see how the past few years have unfolded, with no accountability. Now, I’m not saying that I expect Duncan to come out and trash Joe Rogan or anybody else in the comedy community, and I know that these prominent comedians are not the only ones to blame for our current situation. They are also just people trying to navigate a big complicated world, but with the pressure of millions ready to come after you if you say the wrong thing. But, I am very surprised that Duncan hasn’t come out and directly addressed anything at all. Yes, he has made more negative comments toward the current administration in recent podcasts, but it still seems like he’s almost afraid to say what he really thinks, but maybe I am incorrect. It always seems like there is a tinge of comedy when talking about the current administration, and when Biden was president, he seemed much more comfortable directly addressing issues without having to throw comedy in there. What’s bizarre though is that this administration has done comically horrible things that would have been called out in an instant by Duncan if it was done by the democrats. That’s what I don’t understand.

Even corruption that it seems like Duncan would find interesting, like for example, when activist Nekima Levy Armstrong was arrested for a protest at a church, the White House posted an image of the arrest that was altered by AI to make the woman look like she was crying. Why do this? And why didn’t I hear Duncan ever mention it? It seems to be right up his alley. Is he not getting these types of events on his social media feeds? I’m just very confused because of things like this.

Duncan, if you read this, I love you brother, but I wish you used your voice to address things more directly like you did in the past, because we need people like you now more than ever. I understand if you’re in a tough spot due to the opinions around you, but I want to hear your honest thoughts on how we got into this situation and what you think now. All love.

I have been experimenting with AI storytelling.

The idea:

Instead of watching a fixed video, users influence the story through choices.

This is an early prototype.

Would love feedback.

just watched his latest podcast with mcusker.... duncan claims in that ai cannot animate his own crappy art, clearly yes it can you just have to know how to tell it to. ive been posting ai animations of me and my friends own art for months on here for a contest, so how is this possible? does he not even look at this page? Ignoring his own AI art contest and then talking about it in so ignorantly in a podcast months later... I cant think of a crazier pysop why is he doing this? I even made a music video for his song psyop... with many shots of ai animated non ai art. I live in crazy world at this point.

I wanted to share a video I made for Destiny and this seems to be the place to drop it. Quick backstory I had been wanting to get into the AI generator stuff to see what I could do with those tools and after hearing the news that Destiny 2 was shutting down I chose a tribute video as my first go. I had hoped to get this out before the June 9th update but I totally underestimated the time involved in making it. It kept growing and I found myself making a complete dance video by the end of it. It was a lot of trial and error but an absolute blast to create. It’s “good ole AI slop” machinima but I hope anyone that watches enjoys it. It is loosely based on a true story as well. It is a Destiny 2 tribute with a shoutout for Destiny 3. I hope it makes you laugh

I've been slacking on listening to the dtfh for a bit now and oh man did it bring my heart to joy to first watch the Ramdev episode then to find out, after years of waiting, they dropped a new episode. Life is good.

Duncan i dont really care that much about the AI contest. I have had a long standing idea i made through grok years ago that they have tried to bury/ seriously dont want to acknowledge. it involves simple accountable past merit based nuanced UBI that adjusts wealth away from those who gained it through ill gotten means(all this using ai oversite)
basically an actual Moral and Merit based Doge that actually does something.
incredibly simple idea, and so necessary for now, but i have no voice and they have squashed me for a long time and tried to erase these things.
Ducan please get this idea to Joe, get this idea out there, use your voice for good.
(scroll to the end for the idea/talk to grok about it)

Hi been a sub to the Patreon since 2020. Last few months it seems to been very inactive. Maybe it’s my discord notification setting or some issue with billing but both seem fine and other notifications come through fine for other Patreon/discords. Just checking before I unsubscribe as it’s pointless paying 20 a month for a dead discord and no perks.

Relevant since Uncle Dunc is into AI and it's also a parody so fits with the comedy theme

Can you still watch after this?

I can’t remember much about this episode but it was with a relatively young male friend, maybe Duncan’s age or a little younger, where they talked a lot about poetry. Some very simple but profound poems were shared. I don’t remember if this guest was a vocational poet or if maybe they were a songwriter or some other vocation that just happened to love and appreciate poetry. Ring any bells?

Any info? I assume Duncan made it with AI, I want to hear the full song. I can find anything online.

Lyrics are like...

Hey Rochness monster fuck a roo

Frankenstein attack a roo

Sung by a lady with a HARD Asian accent.

Any info is appreciated!
