4170	5810	The aliens are here.
9400	11100	The aliens are here.
14400	17000	This is Cause and Effect, here with Lunchbox.
17180	19280	We're here at the tinfoil hat contest.
19620	21460	And how many years in a row are we going?
21460	22860	This is year number six.
22860	23460	Year number six.
23460	23820	Six.
23820	25280	Crazy, crazy, crazy.
25440	27460	Let's talk about a little bit what's going on here.
27460	32000	What are the benefits of wearing this tinfoil hat on my head that I've created?
32260	34640	And what am I protecting myself from here?
34640	37840	So, I mean, look, you know, we've got the government's running around here.
37840	39080	All the feds.
39100	40960	The aliens are here. We all know that.
40960	42480	We've been watching the news lately, right?
42480	45540	So they're all trying to control us with their mind control rays.
45820	48080	I mean, we need to protect ourselves against that.
48880	52000	With each tinfoil hat that is being made today,
52000	54800	we are saving one more mind from government mind control.
54800	55580	Is that correct?
55580	56680	That's totally correct.
56680	59200	But I'm also, you know, using this time.
59200	62840	I buy stock in tinfoil the two weeks prior to DEF CON,
62840	64260	just so I can become rich, too.
64260	69640	Can you give me descriptions of the different signals that we're blocking here with these hats?
69640	73420	So the aliens don't allow me to tell you what signals we have,
73420	75540	what they have in their mind control rays.
75760	77640	You know, I like my free UFO rides.
77640	79700	I don't want to give up the total secrets.
80140	84120	So, but we have a lot of transmitters in this room,
84120	86180	bouncing various signals around.
86180	89900	Our mannequin that you'll see in a little bit has a receiver in her head.
89900	95840	And the goal is to find the way to protect her head the most from these alien mind control rays.
95840	99000	Amazing. I actually do feel more energized.
99040	100820	And I actually do feel more clear.
101180	102080	Oh, see, the government...
102920	103920	The government's after me again.
104220	106800	The government's doing that. Again, not a coincidence.
106800	109040	Two times, two times, two times.
109780	111780	So I've made my hat.
111800	113220	Now what happens?
113220	114840	What do I do with this hat that I've had?
114840	119920	How do we test how effective this is against all the signals that are popping up?
119920	123760	So what you're going to want to do next is you're going to want to walk over here to our mannequin.
124240	127020	And she's got the receiver in her head.
127240	129380	And you're going to place your hat on top of her head.
129380	131220	And you've got to remember, she's got to be able to see.
131420	134120	Because if she can't see, she can't run from the government spies.
134120	136100	She can't run from the aliens.
136660	139180	And so then we will start our test.
139200	143800	And it's going to measure how well you're blocking the frequencies coming into her head.
143800	146300	Insane. And what are the frequencies?
146740	149320	What hertz are we going for here?
149320	150300	Lots of them.
150300	151900	Okay. So we're looking at a whole range.
151900	153000	That's all proprietary.
153080	153760	Oh, proprietary technology.
153760	155800	It's a big range. It's a big range.
156180	158920	It's proprietary technology. We can't give those secrets away.
158920	159800	Trade secrets.
161000	162180	Oh, okay.
162280	162740	Oh.
163540	164520	Oh, boy.
165080	165840	Oh, boy.
165840	167780	Okay. Yeah, we're dealing with some serious deep space.
167780	168760	Oh, man. It is.
168760	169640	Okay. Okay. Yeah.
169940	171480	So we'll venture from there.
171480	174020	I think what next we want to do is let's take this up there.
174020	176160	It looks like there might be a line, so we might have to wait a second.
176160	177920	That's okay. I know some people.
177920	178360	VIP.
178360	178840	VIP.
178900	181160	Okay. Let's get some VIP action up here.
181160	186500	We'll take it up to the front, and let's see how effective my tinfoil hat that I made is.
186500	187160	Let's do this.
187160	187520	Okay.
187520	188520	Come on this way, guys.
188520	189580	Come on in. Let's do it.
190840	191760	Three times.
191760	192740	It's, you know...
192740	193260	Three times.
193260	194420	You have to be careful around here.
194660	196080	Three times three, nine.
196080	203840	So now our system's running, and it's checking and seeing how well that signal into the antenna in her head is being blocked.
205240	208540	Insane. So I see there's some action happening here.
209680	211720	Yep. That's testing all the frequencies.
211720	215100	This isn't... you might only be partially brain-controlled.
215500	217000	But right now I'm completely...
217000	217400	You're a guest.
217400	218320	I'm vulnerable.
218320	221340	I made number six out of 19.
221720	223540	I consider that a success.
223540	223700	Six.
223700	227620	But I also do know, how can I make this better? How can I make this block more signals?
227620	232360	So that's the key. We won't give you the secrets, but you're allowed to test as many times as you want.
232360	241760	So you can keep making additions, changes to your hat, and keep bringing it up, get in line here, and then keep testing your hat and seeing what works better, what doesn't.
241760	242720	Trial and error.
242720	242880	Yes.
242880	243420	And learning.
243420	244080	Trial and error.
244080	245520	Yeah, we're all learning together.
245520	245820	Yes.
245820	246540	That's right.
246540	250600	And now, see, this is our other trick. You've taken off your protection.
250780	251440	Yeah.
251440	253800	Now you're controlled. So you better hurry up and get your hat back on.
254040	256720	Okay, perfect. I appreciate that. That means you're on my side.
256720	257140	Yes.
257140	258600	You're not allowed.
258600	260460	Six out of 19.
