Ladies and gentlemen, I am very, very excited about tonight because we got a stacked card, as they would say in the UFC, really good undercard, solid main event. You guys have been left in the dark about who the guests are, because there are multiple guests tonight. It's a really fun show.
**SPEAKER_5** (1:45)
I'm glad you all made it out.
**Chris Ramsay** (1:46)
You won't regret it. But to begin, I do want to bring some friends out here, really close friends. I might actually, some of my closest friends in this space, and they've been really welcoming, and they've been like brothers to me. One of them has a successful YouTube channel on sort of consciousness and philosophy, and the other one is a six-time US. Memory Champion.
Yeah, wild. So we're going to have some really good conversations to get us started. Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together for none other than Michael Philip from Third Eye Drops and Nelson Dellis.
**SPEAKER_5** (2:33)
Grab a seat, folks, grab a seat, any of those, I'm over here. Let's get comfy.
**Chris Ramsay** (2:39)
Don't mind this Brazzers sign back there.
**SPEAKER_5** (2:43)
I'll tell you about it later.
**Chris Ramsay** (2:47)
This is nice. This is nice. This feels like I'm in like my living room here. It's very comfortable.
**Nelson Dellis** (2:52)
Very cozy.
**Chris Ramsay** (2:53)
So, in a nutshell, in a small nutshell, we'll start with Nelson. Can you, I mean, you're an inspiration to me. I met you years ago when I was doing magic stuff and I was like desperate to like increase my skill in magic. And I saw you on a Netflix special. And then I reached out to you because you had done these insane memory feats. Like he, this guy's memorized. He'll be humble about it, but he's memorized like 10,000 digits of pie.
Like to give you like a small hint on how hard that is, just to say the numbers, it could take them up to three hours.
**Nelson Dellis** (3:31)
It's not fun.
**Chris Ramsay** (3:32)
It's not fun. So strap yourselves in.
Nelson, tell us about what you do.
**Nelson Dellis** (3:42)
Yeah, so my whole shtick is I learned how to memorize things. I never really had a good memory.
My grandmother passed away from Alzheimer's, which was unfortunate and a whole thing our family went through. But that was what inspired me to start working on my own memory. I didn't know what that meant, but I discovered that there are memory championships and that people who compete in them train their memories. I never thought that was a thing, but I was curious and learned how to do it and took it to the nth level.
**SPEAKER_7** (4:15)
Yeah, and here we are.
**Chris Ramsay** (4:16)
And you won which memory championship, 2025?
**Nelson Dellis** (4:20)
The most recent was 24
**Chris Ramsay** (4:22)
24?
**SPEAKER_7** (4:23)
Yeah.
**Chris Ramsay** (4:23)
Okay.
**Nelson Dellis** (4:23)
Then I stopped.
**Chris Ramsay** (4:24)
And then you stopped. Any plans on? Because you said you'd stop after five, I know, and then you did it again.
**Nelson Dellis** (4:30)
I don't know if you were back there when I said it, but I'm going to compete in two weeks at the 26th championship.
**Chris Ramsay** (4:36)
No way.
**SPEAKER_7** (4:37)
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
**Chris Ramsay** (4:40)
Thank you, Nelson.
**SPEAKER_7** (4:41)
Yeah.
**Chris Ramsay** (4:42)
And this year is Michael Philip.
Needs no introduction, also has a great memory. But for esoteric and deep philosophical, Western esotericism and a bunch of other wonder nuggets. Tell the audience, for those of you who don't know about Third Eye Drops, what it is you do.
**Michael Philip** (5:02)
Oh my God. Well, is this, is it on? Yeah, this is on, right?
**SPEAKER_8** (5:06)
Yes.
**Michael Philip** (5:07)
I mean, what Chris said, I think is a pretty good introduction. And all of that leaves in to this topic of high weirdness and UFOs in a way that I love talking about. And I can't really help myself from talking about it over and over again. And it's funny that you call what you do a shtick because it's really like the furthest thing from a shtick.
