Tim marks Larry King's death and jokes about his eight marriages, then discusses his marathon podcast appearance with Lex Fridman and the possibility of lecturing at MIT.
- Larry King married eight times to seven different women and kept wanting to get married anyway.
- Tim podcasted with Lex Fridman, a smart guy who asks great questions—fifteen or sixteen hours long.
- Lex offered Tim the chance to lecture at MIT when COVID ends, which Tim sees as spitting in the face of every academic who told him to stay in school.
- Tim tried to get a Goliath bird-eating spider, the largest spider in the world, to put on the studio desk.
- He called Ben about driving to Rancho Cucamonga to find a tarantula dealer in an office building there.
- Spiders freak people out because of how they move—nothing else moves like a spider does.
- This is the stage of quarantine where people are coming apart and considering things inconceivable just ten months ago.
- In LA things are still shut down, but other places are open and people are out.
- Joe Rogan and Elon Musk are in Austin, but Tim would only go if somebody there had any money.
