1
00:00:01,589 --> 00:00:05,099
Coming to you from the epicentre
of global warming where it is

2
00:00:05,099 --> 00:00:08,249
sub zero temperatures and get
mon nation East's from the

3
00:00:08,249 --> 00:00:11,849
United Kingdom still in the
curry manner. I'm Adam curry.

4
00:00:12,269 --> 00:00:15,089
I'm John C. Dvorak here in
Northern Silicon Valley,

5
00:00:15,089 --> 00:00:18,509
California where it's actually
sunny and it probably be about

6
00:00:18,509 --> 00:00:24,959
65 I hate you. It was 65 this
global warming

7
00:00:27,780 --> 00:00:32,490
it is the content and is like
minus five centigrade it is so

8
00:00:32,490 --> 00:00:35,250
cold and it's just hovering
around freezing here.

9
00:00:37,350 --> 00:00:39,660
Well, I spent a week up in
Washington where we were snowed

10
00:00:39,660 --> 00:00:40,080
in

11
00:00:41,490 --> 00:00:45,600
that must have been cosy and fun
and old fashioned I was okay it

12
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,880
was good I got to throw
snowballs you know we have a

13
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,700
hill and our you know, we have
actually from the driveway down

14
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:55,470
so we were you know, all drank a
lot and went down the two inner

15
00:00:55,470 --> 00:00:59,550
tubes at midnight and bounced
around a lot.

16
00:01:00,359 --> 00:01:04,919
Let me just let me just get a
visual okay. I just see your fat

17
00:01:04,919 --> 00:01:08,339
white ass and in a big black
enter to just a quick visual.

18
00:01:09,390 --> 00:01:16,530
And so and then if you snowball
fights and that was that you

19
00:01:16,530 --> 00:01:18,630
know, it's cold but the thing
what was interesting was the

20
00:01:18,630 --> 00:01:22,230
trip up because I took a again
Virgin America should be

21
00:01:22,230 --> 00:01:27,750
sponsoring the show heli flight.
And once you call Branson up and

22
00:01:27,750 --> 00:01:28,800
Tom, the sponsor of the show,

23
00:01:29,129 --> 00:01:33,299
you know, I met him once in the
in the lounge when they were

24
00:01:33,299 --> 00:01:36,839
doing their Chicago inaugural
flight. He's a real introverted

25
00:01:36,839 --> 00:01:41,339
guy. I think he's really like
the Rockstar figurehead and, you

26
00:01:41,339 --> 00:01:44,579
know, this is all big hedge
funds. And this is, you know,

27
00:01:44,579 --> 00:01:48,239
it's most of virgin. Certainly
Atlantic is run by I think

28
00:01:48,239 --> 00:01:53,099
Lufthansa and if you go to,
well, what they do is pretty

29
00:01:53,099 --> 00:01:57,029
smart. If you take Virgin
Atlantic, at least in virgin,

30
00:01:57,359 --> 00:02:00,599
virgin America is yet another
operations company. But I think

31
00:02:00,989 --> 00:02:03,989
it's Menzies aviation, I think
does all of their ground

32
00:02:03,989 --> 00:02:06,449
handling and their check in
work. So they've outsourced all

33
00:02:06,449 --> 00:02:07,319
of it. It's you know, it's

34
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,050
really so the whole thing's
virtual, it is kind of Yeah,

35
00:02:10,230 --> 00:02:12,420
although if you know what you're
doing in any business, you can

36
00:02:12,420 --> 00:02:14,010
virtualize it. Well, the first
clue

37
00:02:14,010 --> 00:02:20,010
came, in fact, almost a year ago
exactly to the date. We always

38
00:02:20,010 --> 00:02:23,550
get invited to the flight
attendants party, they have a

39
00:02:23,580 --> 00:02:26,700
you know about party and awards.
And, you know, you get to know

40
00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:28,920
most of these flight attendants
if you fly it a lot, but in

41
00:02:28,920 --> 00:02:32,520
particular, on the long haul
flights. And so it's kind of

42
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,400
fun, and every single year,
Branson always shows up and does

43
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,680
a nice little spiel for
everybody and then hands out an

44
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:44,310
award and last year, it was via
video tape. So you know, that

45
00:02:44,340 --> 00:02:48,480
that's when the culture is kind
of disappearing. And it becomes

46
00:02:48,510 --> 00:02:53,310
a GADS a real business. No more
fun.

47
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,450
Well, yeah, well, that happens
though. Everything Is Everything

48
00:02:57,450 --> 00:03:02,580
is a start up, you know, goes.
Gets cheap. After you know, the

49
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,520
bean counters come and say, Hey,
you guys can't keep doing this.

50
00:03:05,550 --> 00:03:10,500
Yeah. Well, the you know, my
really my my most favourite

51
00:03:10,500 --> 00:03:13,590
airline has got to be EasyJet. I
mean, that's the one that has

52
00:03:13,620 --> 00:03:16,890
it. Just everything about it
works right down to speedy

53
00:03:16,890 --> 00:03:19,380
boarding. Do they have this on
the on the low, low cost

54
00:03:19,410 --> 00:03:22,470
airlines in the States? John,
the concept of speedy boarding?

55
00:03:23,159 --> 00:03:27,719
Well, Southwest, you know, the
originator of this whole type of

56
00:03:27,749 --> 00:03:30,149
deceleration was right, well,
no, actually, it was a company

57
00:03:30,149 --> 00:03:35,159
called PSA. Pacific South
Pacific Southwest Airlines. And

58
00:03:35,159 --> 00:03:38,009
they were bought by American or
United or somebody and they were

59
00:03:38,009 --> 00:03:40,619
just I think it was, I think
they were bought by No, they

60
00:03:40,619 --> 00:03:44,219
were bought by US West, or USA
or I'm sorry, but they're bought

61
00:03:44,219 --> 00:03:46,799
by US air and the first thing
they had to do with these

62
00:03:46,799 --> 00:03:50,279
aeroplanes that PSA flew, had a
smile on them. They had it they

63
00:03:50,519 --> 00:03:54,119
painted a smile on him. And the
first thing that US Airways does

64
00:03:54,119 --> 00:03:57,449
is they take the smile off. And
then the second thing they did

65
00:03:57,449 --> 00:03:57,719
was

66
00:03:58,499 --> 00:03:59,819
smile, get rid of that.

67
00:04:00,990 --> 00:04:03,630
So that's gone. And then the
second thing they did was on

68
00:04:03,630 --> 00:04:08,790
PSA. They used to have these you
know these comedy acts. Yeah.

69
00:04:09,059 --> 00:04:12,209
Oh, yeah. What were the weather,
like in the unlikely event of a

70
00:04:12,209 --> 00:04:14,969
water landing? You know, besides
getting wet? Or some lame Joe

71
00:04:14,969 --> 00:04:15,179
like?

72
00:04:15,839 --> 00:04:18,719
Yeah, if you're, you know, if
you're sitting next to a child

73
00:04:18,719 --> 00:04:20,609
or someone acting like a child.

74
00:04:21,809 --> 00:04:24,449
Yeah, put their mask on and put
yours on first. And then

75
00:04:24,449 --> 00:04:28,169
there's, I remember once I heard
a pilot Doer spiel, have you

76
00:04:28,169 --> 00:04:32,339
ever heard the pilot come on and
do a good spiel? No, no, I never

77
00:04:32,339 --> 00:04:34,769
have the one. I like that. And I
It wasn't America. I can't

78
00:04:34,769 --> 00:04:37,469
remember I was a kid with my
parents. I remember we were

79
00:04:37,469 --> 00:04:40,139
being pushed back from the gate.
So just before that happened,

80
00:04:40,139 --> 00:04:43,109
the pilot gets on the intercom
and he says, Okay, let's just

81
00:04:43,109 --> 00:04:46,949
put that in reverse easy up on
the clutch. There we go. i Yes,

82
00:04:46,949 --> 00:04:50,699
we're backing up. It was very
funny. And I've never forgotten

83
00:04:50,699 --> 00:04:52,289
that like that's a good joke.

84
00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:55,110
Well, I can't I can't record her
on me usually. And I'm always

85
00:04:55,110 --> 00:04:58,410
waiting to catch it because it
most of this is a is a folklore

86
00:04:58,410 --> 00:05:02,160
bit because the same gags get or
have all been recycled. And

87
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,620
every once in a while somebody
will come on What? They'll do it

88
00:05:04,620 --> 00:05:07,470
on Southwest very rarely. But
once in a while, some guy will

89
00:05:07,470 --> 00:05:11,610
come up with the entire, the
classic Spiel with all the

90
00:05:11,610 --> 00:05:14,610
jokes, all the jokes in it. And
you know, he reads through the

91
00:05:14,610 --> 00:05:17,310
whole thing anyway, so they got
rid of that, because you can't

92
00:05:17,310 --> 00:05:19,620
have that because it's probably
you know, they don't know why,

93
00:05:19,620 --> 00:05:23,340
but just us here is not the most
fun loving company. Anyway, so

94
00:05:23,340 --> 00:05:26,100
then they had this, they took
all their routes, and then they

95
00:05:26,100 --> 00:05:28,890
couldn't make any money on him.
And then they folded it. And

96
00:05:28,890 --> 00:05:32,850
then apparently the other there
was another one Western airlines

97
00:05:32,850 --> 00:05:34,500
and there was a couple other
ones that flew out here and they

98
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:36,750
got all bought up, and then
these guys couldn't handle it.

99
00:05:36,930 --> 00:05:39,480
And all that's left now is
united Express, which I think

100
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,870
was Western or one of the other
companies that they bought. And

101
00:05:42,870 --> 00:05:45,810
then the Southwest cropped up
and southwest ago started

102
00:05:45,810 --> 00:05:49,770
Southwest as he modelled the
company after PSA and that's why

103
00:05:49,770 --> 00:05:54,600
he named it southwest which is
part of the PSA name. But he has

104
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,890
his basic theory and they have
speedy boarding you Yeah, he

105
00:05:58,890 --> 00:06:02,190
says that once these airlines
these airlines that he's

106
00:06:02,190 --> 00:06:04,710
carriers have to realise that a
plane doesn't make any money

107
00:06:04,710 --> 00:06:07,770
sitting on the ground is he
wants his planes in the air

108
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,710
almost as much as you know he
doesn't want them sitting around

109
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,930
they're flying yep,

110
00:06:13,380 --> 00:06:16,110
that's that's the only it's a
spreadsheet business as the

111
00:06:16,140 --> 00:06:18,060
that's absolutely the only way
you make money.

112
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,480
Right so he's got those things
they land they dumped everybody

113
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,130
out and they load them up.

114
00:06:23,190 --> 00:06:26,520
You know what I like even better
is now Amsterdam and London.

115
00:06:26,820 --> 00:06:29,760
Gatwick which has a beautiful
new North Terminal it's been

116
00:06:30,180 --> 00:06:33,030
Gatwick always had a real CD
kind of connotation but the new

117
00:06:33,030 --> 00:06:38,070
terminal is fantastic. They have
their own kind of pier their own

118
00:06:38,100 --> 00:06:43,470
wing if you will for these these
short short route short hop

119
00:06:43,470 --> 00:06:47,340
flights. And there's there's
there's no jetway, it's all

120
00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:50,640
stairs so boom you know the
plane rolls up. They've got the

121
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,580
hold open before the before the
plane is before they even have

122
00:06:53,580 --> 00:06:55,950
the chalks in the bags are
coming out the new bags are

123
00:06:55,950 --> 00:06:58,560
going on people just are right
off the plane. You don't have to

124
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,580
wait for that stupid jetway,
they walked down front and back.

125
00:07:02,910 --> 00:07:08,850
Which is is great on a 737 so it
empties out real quick and then

126
00:07:08,970 --> 00:07:12,570
everyone walks on in with speedy
boarding the only advantage is

127
00:07:12,570 --> 00:07:16,380
for like I think it's 10 or 12
pounds extra you are boarded

128
00:07:16,380 --> 00:07:19,800
first. So you can basically sit
wherever you want to I like to

129
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,500
sit down near the front so you
can get get off even quicker but

130
00:07:22,500 --> 00:07:26,220
it's fast. What I love about
Virgin America which I hope

131
00:07:26,250 --> 00:07:33,240
EasyJet will get is the insert
ordering that just rocks so hard

132
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,900
I love that you just sit there
and go on a little screen boop

133
00:07:36,900 --> 00:07:39,450
boop I'll have a coke I'll have
some pretzels because of course

134
00:07:39,450 --> 00:07:42,660
that's about all there is you
know I want a little model

135
00:07:42,660 --> 00:07:46,770
aeroplane. A Virgin America
model aeroplane and the swipe

136
00:07:46,770 --> 00:07:48,990
your credit card and the
stewardess flight attendant

137
00:07:48,990 --> 00:07:50,220
comes by and hands it to you.

138
00:07:51,959 --> 00:07:55,529
Yeah, well Virgin America is is
is the way to go. But anyway, so

139
00:07:55,529 --> 00:08:00,449
I go up to Seattle. And I guess
I landed up there and it was the

140
00:08:00,479 --> 00:08:04,679
I guess a hub of of a disaster
the Alaskan cancel all as

141
00:08:04,679 --> 00:08:08,639
flight. Northwest cancelled all
its flights because especially

142
00:08:08,639 --> 00:08:10,769
Northwest had some issues. I
don't know what was wrong with

143
00:08:10,769 --> 00:08:14,939
Alaska. And so the airport was
like being in Saigon. And you

144
00:08:14,939 --> 00:08:17,549
know, when the fall of Vietnam
took place, there's people

145
00:08:17,549 --> 00:08:19,979
there's they're walking around,
they're gay. I guess they have

146
00:08:19,979 --> 00:08:24,749
these in Seattle airport, they
have these blue blankies that

147
00:08:24,749 --> 00:08:29,009
they give out to people that are
I guess stranded there. So they

148
00:08:29,009 --> 00:08:29,999
don't freeze to death because

149
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,670
that was one of the ones that
about big enough to cover half

150
00:08:32,670 --> 00:08:33,300
of your body.

151
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,680
No, actually these are pretty
big. And but it was freezing.

152
00:08:37,890 --> 00:08:40,230
Because the you know, it was
snowing like it was like a

153
00:08:40,230 --> 00:08:43,260
blizzard outside. And so there's
a bunch of these people walking

154
00:08:43,260 --> 00:08:45,810
around these blankets on it. It
looked like you know the better

155
00:08:45,810 --> 00:08:50,100
ones or something. I just had a
strange feeling to it. And

156
00:08:51,660 --> 00:08:54,510
anyway, it was pretty funny
because I was taking the puddle

157
00:08:54,510 --> 00:08:59,310
jumper from there which ended I
went down to Boeing Field to get

158
00:08:59,310 --> 00:09:02,220
that and that. That wasn't
really too bad there. I don't

159
00:09:02,220 --> 00:09:05,340
know what there was a localised
problem, I guess I don't know.

160
00:09:05,340 --> 00:09:07,140
But whatever the case was, I
guess there was some people were

161
00:09:07,140 --> 00:09:09,960
stranded in the United States.
Because of these this winter

162
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,580
storm for another three or four
days in some of these airports

163
00:09:14,580 --> 00:09:17,550
that couldn't get home. They're
moaning and groaning on TV. You

164
00:09:17,550 --> 00:09:21,840
know, they want to see their
relatives. This the same Damone

165
00:09:21,870 --> 00:09:22,620
with Oman.

166
00:09:24,660 --> 00:09:28,290
So I guess a lot of just finally
got out the other day. So I

167
00:09:28,290 --> 00:09:29,700
thought that was kind of
interesting

168
00:09:29,730 --> 00:09:32,610
to experience. And then this is
all part of the global warming

169
00:09:32,610 --> 00:09:36,960
of course, which has struck
America in I mean, is it not so

170
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,860
that there's still ice storms on
the in the Northeast, and

171
00:09:40,890 --> 00:09:42,780
there's all kinds of weird
weather right, that's still

172
00:09:42,780 --> 00:09:44,490
ongoing since we spoke last
week.

173
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,120
Yeah, yeah. It's been going on
all week. It looks like and it's

174
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,370
the snowfall we had up in
Washington. I mean, getting to

175
00:09:50,370 --> 00:09:53,610
Oh, flying in. You know, I'm
flying in looking down on

176
00:09:53,610 --> 00:09:56,790
Seattle. I've never seen Seattle
like this. It was just white.

177
00:09:56,910 --> 00:10:02,790
The whole thing. It was just
just a massive snow No. Anyway,

178
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,980
so we're for the listeners who
are hearing this on the podcast

179
00:10:08,070 --> 00:10:13,740
for the first time. Today we're
streaming the show live. Which

180
00:10:13,740 --> 00:10:16,440
was kind of funny because I was
also trying to set up the phone

181
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,680
bridge so we could take a call
but for what new Skype is, I

182
00:10:19,680 --> 00:10:23,010
mean, this thing is so jerry
rigged, it's really held

183
00:10:23,010 --> 00:10:27,540
together with baling wire and
some chewing gum. that I just

184
00:10:27,540 --> 00:10:30,120
couldn't get it to work. But I
think people enjoyed me trying

185
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,540
to try to configure it. A lot of
sway.

186
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,630
So the big news here I come back
and watching the watching as I'm

187
00:10:39,630 --> 00:10:41,280
watching the ABC

188
00:10:41,460 --> 00:10:44,880
is still made off of it. No, oh,
well, I

189
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,640
mean yeah, but the to me the big
news is a new show they're

190
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:48,270
bringing out

191
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,910
Homeland Security USA.

192
00:10:51,419 --> 00:10:55,409
Yeah, can't believe that.
Homeland Security us

193
00:10:55,470 --> 00:10:58,530
a John what what rock have you
been up? We're up in Seattle.

194
00:10:58,530 --> 00:11:00,240
This is like three weeks ago.
The same

195
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,730
thing? Same? Seattle rock?

196
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,320
No, but this? Didn't we didn't I
mentioned this to you three

197
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,680
weeks ago? No. Yeah, I'm pretty
sure I did. Homeland Security.

198
00:11:10,919 --> 00:11:12,479
What was the timestamp on the
mentioned?

199
00:11:13,260 --> 00:11:18,630
It was episode number six, zero
and the timestamp. Thanks, Dick.

200
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,320
This is what we always do. It's
like, No, I mentioned that. Oh,

201
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,720
yeah. What episode and what?
What time code?

202
00:11:27,090 --> 00:11:29,220
Yeah, that's a great thing about
doing when you do a show this an

203
00:11:29,250 --> 00:11:31,800
hour and a half? Well, you know,
once we can you if you've did it

204
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,500
more, you'll never find
anything. It's all this is all

205
00:11:34,500 --> 00:11:38,130
lost to posterity and some, you
know, some future date when

206
00:11:38,130 --> 00:11:42,210
somebody takes and transcodes
everything into some, you know,

207
00:11:42,210 --> 00:11:43,350
somewhere they could search it.

208
00:11:43,590 --> 00:11:47,370
I wonder about that. Because I
do keep a lot of stuff that I

209
00:11:47,370 --> 00:11:52,110
think is relevant. And you know,
all of my, my Dutch and American

210
00:11:52,110 --> 00:11:57,840
radio work is all online. Nice
guy in Australia, claw

211
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,950
gewog.net. He did that all for
me. Now, I always wonder if you

212
00:12:01,950 --> 00:12:04,890
know anyone ever give a shit?
Well, it just you know, the

213
00:12:04,890 --> 00:12:07,950
server one day just you know,
someone will die and no one will

214
00:12:07,950 --> 00:12:09,690
pay a bill and then it's gone.
Right? It's just

215
00:12:09,690 --> 00:12:13,080
Oh, yeah. No, that I think most
of will be gone. But but it but

216
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:17,010
people would give a shit. If
they if you know, if we're

217
00:12:17,010 --> 00:12:19,770
talking about 100 years from now
somebody's doing research of the

218
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,520
era. And there was some way of
accessing some of this old

219
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,070
material just to see what people
were thinking, you know, what we

220
00:12:26,070 --> 00:12:27,390
need is this, here's what

221
00:12:28,229 --> 00:12:32,189
we need to get a number of
episodes of this show into a

222
00:12:32,189 --> 00:12:39,899
presidential library. It's got
to be possible. Before it will

223
00:12:39,899 --> 00:12:40,109
be in

224
00:12:40,110 --> 00:12:42,360
the book, all the episodes
should be in a print in a

225
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:43,350
presidential library

226
00:12:43,380 --> 00:12:46,260
demonstrate, if not the
congressional library.

227
00:12:47,370 --> 00:12:50,850
All the episodes would go as
mp3. So we go on one DVD, I

228
00:12:50,850 --> 00:12:53,670
mean, what's the big deal? We
should probably make a number of

229
00:12:53,670 --> 00:12:57,240
DVDs of all the episodes in mp3
format, and then give them to a

230
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:58,950
bunch of libraries all over the
country.

231
00:12:59,370 --> 00:13:05,940
Yeah, see if they take him was?
Yeah. I'm sorry,

232
00:13:05,970 --> 00:13:08,400
you know, I'm saying they might
I mean, I would if I'm a

233
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,040
librarian as a dB, you know, I'd
say, you know, they have a lot

234
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:15,000
of these archival libraries,
like the Bancroft over here, and

235
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,030
University of California, was
just essentially collects all

236
00:13:18,030 --> 00:13:22,200
kinds of weird crap. That's, you
know, hundreds of years old, do

237
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,540
you see from family heirlooms?
Well, I

238
00:13:26,190 --> 00:13:30,450
I am in the Dutch broadcast, or
broadcast history museum.

239
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,800
Because I did all that stuff for
public television. So I know

240
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,430
that's been kept and it but it's
always, you know, the same five

241
00:13:38,460 --> 00:13:39,210
clips,

242
00:13:39,780 --> 00:13:44,820
right? That's not the same as
complete episodic, you know,

243
00:13:44,820 --> 00:13:49,020
6070 100 and you know, how many
shows, or you know, I have got,

244
00:13:49,710 --> 00:13:51,180
I've got 1000s of shows.

245
00:13:52,410 --> 00:13:58,830
I have, like all my silicon spin
shows on Danna, of course, I've

246
00:13:58,830 --> 00:14:02,310
Durbin a boxes scattered around
the basement. And I also have

247
00:14:02,310 --> 00:14:07,980
actually the early stuff I did
from CNET. On on big you Maddix

248
00:14:08,010 --> 00:14:12,750
Yeah. And I had, you know, those
should probably be transcoded

249
00:14:12,750 --> 00:14:16,440
before the other stuff before
those things all blow up. And,

250
00:14:17,250 --> 00:14:20,010
you know, it's all you know, I
don't know, I can't mean it.

251
00:14:21,210 --> 00:14:26,190
This is typical of it, any kind
of small operation, but they had

252
00:14:27,630 --> 00:14:31,440
ZD TV, which became Tech TV. I
went into the office once and

253
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,170
there was a pie. There was a big
giant box of all my, you know,

254
00:14:34,290 --> 00:14:39,690
two years of my shows. And I
said what is this box, this box

255
00:14:39,690 --> 00:14:41,400
doing here? And they said we're
throwing it out.

256
00:14:42,690 --> 00:14:45,090
You know, you've told me this
story. Yeah. And

257
00:14:45,090 --> 00:14:48,660
so I grabbed him and I made sure
to get to them. As they came

258
00:14:48,660 --> 00:14:50,730
out. I made sure to grab them
when they were going to go into

259
00:14:50,730 --> 00:14:53,670
another process of throwing them
out. And it reminds me of a

260
00:14:53,700 --> 00:15:00,210
friend of mine who's a New York
agent and and book package. are

261
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:05,400
named Bob McCoy. He used to work
at Dell which was bought up by,

262
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,090
I think, one of the other Bantam
and then bought by somebody else

263
00:15:09,090 --> 00:15:12,660
and God knows who owns what now.
So he's gonna he was apparently

264
00:15:12,660 --> 00:15:17,790
at one of the someplace one of
their facilities to get to

265
00:15:17,820 --> 00:15:20,970
really get something out of the
archives. And he goes, and he

266
00:15:20,970 --> 00:15:27,600
finds a dumpster, filled to the
brim with with original art.

267
00:15:28,020 --> 00:15:31,890
That was cover art for all those
old Dell murder mysteries and

268
00:15:31,889 --> 00:15:33,719
all that kind of stuff. Oh,
you're kidding me? Oh, that's

269
00:15:33,719 --> 00:15:34,529
horrible.

270
00:15:34,949 --> 00:15:37,049
Yeah. And he says, What's going
on here? And the guy says, oh,

271
00:15:37,049 --> 00:15:41,129
yeah, we're Joe got a coworker.
You know, the grounds told us we

272
00:15:41,129 --> 00:15:43,499
had to get rid of this stuff. So
you know, it's shrink the

273
00:15:43,499 --> 00:15:47,039
office, blah, blah, blah. So he
grabbed, you know, whatever, he

274
00:15:47,039 --> 00:15:49,289
could actually I have four
pieces that I got. And they're

275
00:15:49,409 --> 00:15:54,209
just really dynamite. They're
oil paintings. And so he just

276
00:15:54,209 --> 00:15:57,629
grabbed as much as he couldn't
filled his car. And you know,

277
00:15:57,629 --> 00:16:00,569
because they were gonna just
burn it. And I'm thinking, you

278
00:16:00,569 --> 00:16:02,849
know, what, a bunch of bonuses,
I mean, this could have gone on

279
00:16:02,849 --> 00:16:05,309
a really nice auction. And

280
00:16:06,419 --> 00:16:08,279
I'll tell you, though, because
we've just gone through this

281
00:16:08,279 --> 00:16:14,309
exercise, cleaning out storage,
really decimating the amount of

282
00:16:14,309 --> 00:16:16,799
crap we have in this house for
the move, which starts on

283
00:16:16,799 --> 00:16:23,489
Monday, the Tuesday will be in
the new house. And you know,

284
00:16:23,519 --> 00:16:25,799
everyone says, Okay, I'll take
this, and I'll, you know, I'll

285
00:16:25,799 --> 00:16:28,199
take this to the auction house.
So we have some nice shit that

286
00:16:28,199 --> 00:16:30,689
we just don't want anymore. You
know, you just can't just throw

287
00:16:30,689 --> 00:16:33,029
it away, I'd much rather give it
away, which is what we're going

288
00:16:33,029 --> 00:16:36,989
to wind up doing. Because no
one's buying anything. There's

289
00:16:37,019 --> 00:16:41,429
no auctions of of smaller, lower
price items that aren't, you

290
00:16:41,429 --> 00:16:45,629
know, specialty antiques or real
collector's items. Even eBay,

291
00:16:45,659 --> 00:16:48,449
it's really tough, people are
not buying a lot. And if in

292
00:16:48,449 --> 00:16:51,809
fact, you know, when it comes to
furniture, and not talking about

293
00:16:51,809 --> 00:16:55,649
paintings when it comes to
furniture, the experience that

294
00:16:55,649 --> 00:16:58,319
these guys have as people would
much rather go to Ikea, buy some

295
00:16:58,319 --> 00:17:01,409
flat pack crap, throw it
together. Instead of buying

296
00:17:01,409 --> 00:17:08,789
something we have a quality 18
late 1800s couch and two chairs

297
00:17:08,789 --> 00:17:14,219
in the I'm talking big,
bombastic Victorian wood with

298
00:17:14,219 --> 00:17:18,329
gold trimmings, we had them
completely re upholstered these

299
00:17:18,329 --> 00:17:23,009
things when we bought them
probably worth $9,000. Maybe a

300
00:17:23,009 --> 00:17:30,329
little more. couldn't give it
away. No one wants it. I'd much

301
00:17:30,329 --> 00:17:30,869
rather Yeah,

302
00:17:30,900 --> 00:17:34,080
well, you know, this was in the
80s when he found this, this

303
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,690
cache of art. But I think
there's probably more to it. You

304
00:17:36,690 --> 00:17:39,120
know, there's probably the I
think the one element that I you

305
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:41,850
know, even though I expressed
lament, there's probably the

306
00:17:41,850 --> 00:17:46,950
element of rights. You know,
artists, they send their stuff

307
00:17:46,950 --> 00:17:51,090
in, and they still own it. And
so you can't, you know, they may

308
00:17:51,090 --> 00:17:53,340
have sold it, as you know, the
there's probably like, some of

309
00:17:53,340 --> 00:17:55,920
them were probably sold as work
for hire. And some of them were

310
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,550
sold, as you know, one time
North American rights. And you

311
00:17:59,550 --> 00:18:02,070
know, there's probably a whole
bunch of different deals that

312
00:18:02,070 --> 00:18:05,100
were done to get all this art.
And it probably if he's put it

313
00:18:05,100 --> 00:18:07,830
on the auction market, you'd get
sued by one of these artists who

314
00:18:07,830 --> 00:18:09,990
was seeing you being ripping
them off, because they probably

315
00:18:09,990 --> 00:18:12,990
should have the piece back or
who knows why. But so they say

316
00:18:12,990 --> 00:18:15,480
screw it, we'll just throw it
out. And you know, what, the

317
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:19,590
worst the worst that can happen?
And I don't know. But I think

318
00:18:19,590 --> 00:18:23,160
that goes on a lot I think a lot
of stuff is is a lot of history,

319
00:18:23,430 --> 00:18:26,280
and a lot of vinyl, like
photographic archives, a lot of

320
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,550
these newspapers is going to end
up gone because these newspapers

321
00:18:29,550 --> 00:18:31,590
aren't, you know, they're one
company buys another which buys

322
00:18:31,590 --> 00:18:33,210
another which buys another and
then they fall. So

323
00:18:33,690 --> 00:18:36,600
check this out the New York
Times. Did you know that they

324
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,460
own part of the Red Sox?

325
00:18:38,700 --> 00:18:40,860
Yeah, I know. Isn't that funny?
We blogged that.

326
00:18:40,890 --> 00:18:44,400
I mean, how I mean, where's the
outrage on that? That's

327
00:18:44,430 --> 00:18:49,110
ridiculous. So they have like a
$400 million payment coming due

328
00:18:49,110 --> 00:18:54,030
in February or March. So they
need to get some cash. So now, I

329
00:18:54,030 --> 00:18:55,860
don't know if this is public
knowledge. But all of a sudden,

330
00:18:55,860 --> 00:18:58,620
I read right there in the papers
like, yeah, we're selling our

331
00:18:58,620 --> 00:19:03,090
$200 million stake in the Red
Sox. Hmm. In Boston, the rival

332
00:19:03,120 --> 00:19:04,830
the rival towns team.

333
00:19:05,250 --> 00:19:08,250
Well, the New York Times owns
the Boston Globe. And I think

334
00:19:08,250 --> 00:19:09,210
that's a connection.

335
00:19:09,930 --> 00:19:13,470
That's true. But still it the
headline was really weird. I'm

336
00:19:13,470 --> 00:19:14,010
like, Whoa,

337
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:15,990
well, yeah. Well, that's why
you'd want to play the headline

338
00:19:15,990 --> 00:19:18,510
to make it make it make a
laughingstock out in New York,

339
00:19:18,510 --> 00:19:21,690
but in fact, it's Boston Globe.
That's, you know, the real is

340
00:19:21,690 --> 00:19:23,040
the real owner. Yeah, true.

341
00:19:23,580 --> 00:19:27,870
So yeah. And so I think, you
know, these shows, yeah, these

342
00:19:27,870 --> 00:19:30,060
shows that there's a lot of
stuff that you I mean, I was

343
00:19:30,060 --> 00:19:32,730
thinking about this with the
general, generally speaking,

344
00:19:32,940 --> 00:19:35,910
because I still have a bunch of,
you know, I moved some old CDs.

345
00:19:35,910 --> 00:19:40,320
I had a CD ROM burner, like, you
know, version one, when they

346
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,270
first came out, they were 1x

347
00:19:42,300 --> 00:19:45,090
it has to wait, and then it
finalises for three hours.

348
00:19:45,360 --> 00:19:49,560
Yeah. And it was really it was I
guess it was 1x it was scuzzy.

349
00:19:49,860 --> 00:19:55,320
Oh I love scuzzy. All scuzzy CD
ROM burners. The first ones you

350
00:19:55,320 --> 00:20:01,050
get the CD with the blank CDs I
think are two or $3 and And it

351
00:20:01,050 --> 00:20:04,380
was like a big deal, and then
you'd burn it. And about every

352
00:20:04,380 --> 00:20:08,160
and it was like only one out of
two would take that always crap

353
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,770
out, you know, the thing would
blow up for some reason would be

354
00:20:10,770 --> 00:20:14,130
ignited sorry, this didn't work.
So you'd have to do it again.

355
00:20:14,670 --> 00:20:18,240
And so anyway, but to some of
those did, you know you got a

356
00:20:18,270 --> 00:20:21,960
bunch of old ones. And so now
some of them are actually losing

357
00:20:21,990 --> 00:20:25,170
data. I mean, they're already
they're not even that old, 20

358
00:20:25,170 --> 00:20:28,710
years old, maybe. And there's,
you know, already losing data

359
00:20:28,710 --> 00:20:32,430
and so, you have to get find all
your old CD ROMs that you burned

360
00:20:32,430 --> 00:20:38,190
and move the data to a DVD or as
fast as you can. And luckily, I

361
00:20:38,190 --> 00:20:44,220
have a there was one Plex store
model that I got a copy of that

362
00:20:44,220 --> 00:20:52,200
was a considered by experts who
who analyse discs that are there

363
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,350
to see how well they burn or
whatever. And

364
00:20:55,590 --> 00:20:57,570
the DVD itself.

365
00:20:58,380 --> 00:21:01,170
Yeah, they will, there's a
couple companies that look at,

366
00:21:01,350 --> 00:21:06,060
you know, to if you produce a CD
ROM burner, or this was first CD

367
00:21:06,060 --> 00:21:11,430
ROM burner, they, they can tell
you, you know, how well did by

368
00:21:11,910 --> 00:21:14,490
by looking at it under, you
know, electron microscope or

369
00:21:14,490 --> 00:21:18,750
something. And this guy who runs
one of these companies, that's a

370
00:21:18,780 --> 00:21:23,040
testing company, he told me
about this one particular Plex

371
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,670
store dry, there's a few years
ago say the least, that was

372
00:21:26,670 --> 00:21:30,000
considered it was absolutely
perfect in every way. And he

373
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:34,380
would, and it actually I still
have it. And it will read discs

374
00:21:34,380 --> 00:21:37,860
that I've got 20 different
readers, it will read a disc

375
00:21:37,860 --> 00:21:43,380
that none of these other readers
will touch. And but you know,

376
00:21:43,380 --> 00:21:46,080
then I have to get it off that
obviously that the disc itself

377
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,680
is is flaky. And then it was a
real problem. I think a lot of

378
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,800
data and pictures and everything
you know, people have to have to

379
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:58,020
do you backup the hard drives
now? Yeah, yeah. Can't trust me.

380
00:21:58,020 --> 00:22:01,440
And then you have to have a
second one just in case. Yeah.

381
00:22:03,120 --> 00:22:03,570
Well,

382
00:22:04,170 --> 00:22:07,320
I find just having a lot of
copies everywhere. Usually

383
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:07,680
that's right.

384
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,940
Do I have to have like 234
Sometimes more copies of the

385
00:22:11,940 --> 00:22:15,720
same thing. It's like clutter.
Yeah, there's no reason that you

386
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,870
have to do that in a digital
age. But you know, a couple of

387
00:22:18,870 --> 00:22:21,570
bad experiences because this
stuff is once it goes you lose

388
00:22:21,570 --> 00:22:22,170
everything.

389
00:22:23,430 --> 00:22:28,320
We're just talking about that
that there's a trend amongst the

390
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,740
young the young uns here when
they when they go to a party or

391
00:22:31,740 --> 00:22:35,850
some kind of event A lot of them
will buy the throw away film

392
00:22:35,850 --> 00:22:41,040
cameras to Kodak, you know, the
cartons? The carton cam because

393
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,380
yeah, and then they trade those
and they hand them out and

394
00:22:43,500 --> 00:22:45,930
sometimes it's sometimes I'll
even make duplicates, but it's

395
00:22:45,930 --> 00:22:48,510
it seems like there's a when
someone really wants to make

396
00:22:48,510 --> 00:22:52,140
something they care about that
is a difference the the youth

397
00:22:52,350 --> 00:22:58,530
seems to value traditional
photographs over the digital

398
00:22:58,530 --> 00:22:58,980
kind.

399
00:23:00,780 --> 00:23:03,690
Well, I don't know that I
haven't seen that trend here. I

400
00:23:03,690 --> 00:23:03,840
mean,

401
00:23:04,260 --> 00:23:06,660
this is this is England, man.
We're ahead of all trends in the

402
00:23:06,660 --> 00:23:11,610
US are behind. I don't think so.
Dude, would you please go look

403
00:23:11,610 --> 00:23:14,460
at the Hollywood box office and
tell me how many English people

404
00:23:14,460 --> 00:23:15,210
are involved

405
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,300
Well, that's true. Yeah. Yeah,
it is.

406
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:28,020
Now as the music comes from here
in generally the music the big

407
00:23:28,410 --> 00:23:30,750
influences Yeah, what are you
talking about? The Beatles the

408
00:23:30,750 --> 00:23:34,170
Rolling Stones? The Who? The
Kings the Beegees do I need to

409
00:23:34,170 --> 00:23:34,650
go on?

410
00:23:35,190 --> 00:23:37,350
Do you need to get any further
back in time?

411
00:23:37,380 --> 00:23:43,440
No, no. Well, okay. All right.
I'll grant you a New Kids on the

412
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:43,890
Block.

413
00:23:45,390 --> 00:23:47,430
You know, taking them either,
but

414
00:23:47,940 --> 00:23:51,390
take that Robbie Williams

415
00:23:55,350 --> 00:23:56,940
I think you're digging yourself
into a hole.

416
00:23:56,970 --> 00:24:02,580
No, I'm not. I'm not all the
most of the the the musical pop

417
00:24:02,580 --> 00:24:05,100
trends definitely come from
England. So always been that

418
00:24:05,100 --> 00:24:11,370
way. You know? Yes. out please.
The musical pop

419
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,430
trends. Yeah, you made a bubble
gum music.

420
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,660
Starting with the Beatles. If
you call the Beatles low end,

421
00:24:18,660 --> 00:24:20,610
that's where it started. Yeah.
Then yes.

422
00:24:22,950 --> 00:24:23,970
All the way to full music.

423
00:24:24,930 --> 00:24:29,460
All the way up to the Spice
Girls. Here's a movie if you

424
00:24:29,460 --> 00:24:32,040
have not seen this, John, you
have to watch. It's a French

425
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:40,050
document documentary. called The
World According to Monsanto. Oh,

426
00:24:40,050 --> 00:24:43,230
yeah, I've heard about it. You
have got to see this. In fact,

427
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:50,460
let me give a I can give you the
link. I think I can. Because of

428
00:24:50,460 --> 00:24:53,040
course it's on Google. Hold on

429
00:24:55,770 --> 00:25:01,980
should just be able to click
that what the hell All right you

430
00:25:01,980 --> 00:25:04,080
still with me? I didn't bust you
out there.

431
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:08,370
No I'm here. Okay, good. Yeah,
you have to take a look at this

432
00:25:08,370 --> 00:25:09,120
is a

433
00:25:11,010 --> 00:25:13,260
friend it's on Google movies

434
00:25:14,309 --> 00:25:17,609
it's on here on the Google Movie
Channel where everything's okay

435
00:25:17,819 --> 00:25:21,659
it's on the it's on the Google
where all your movies are can

436
00:25:21,659 --> 00:25:26,099
come from I got a great high
quality version of It's a

437
00:25:26,099 --> 00:25:29,099
Wonderful Life actually put that
on on media today the little

438
00:25:29,099 --> 00:25:33,419
piece where George Bailey says
well, your money's not here it's

439
00:25:33,419 --> 00:25:36,419
it's in your house is in his
house. And what do you want to

440
00:25:36,419 --> 00:25:40,409
get and you're gonna foreclose?
I thought it was so cool. For 60

441
00:25:40,409 --> 00:25:44,129
years for 60 years this movie
has been warning us about about

442
00:25:44,129 --> 00:25:47,759
this very moment about what can
actually happen every single

443
00:25:47,759 --> 00:25:51,329
year gets rolled out again
although I must say in the past

444
00:25:51,329 --> 00:25:55,949
five years since they actually
started to do this to bankrupt

445
00:25:55,949 --> 00:25:58,619
everybody. You don't see that
movie around that much.

446
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,820
So that one guy committed
suicide

447
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:08,640
from the made off. I saw them
report this live on on CNBC was

448
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,730
fantastic. They went live he
they showed him killing himself

449
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,630
now not quite that good. But
they showed a reporter a

450
00:26:15,630 --> 00:26:19,170
reporter on the street corner
and he's like, it was so funny.

451
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,300
I'm reading this off my
Blackberry he was literally

452
00:26:21,300 --> 00:26:24,510
reading like a the ABC News
website. I'm reading this off my

453
00:26:24,510 --> 00:26:26,880
Blackberry and that's why I'm on
the corner here standing

454
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,640
somewhere I guess near the guys
he could have been on any corner

455
00:26:30,210 --> 00:26:35,580
and it says I don't speak French
because the guy's name is

456
00:26:35,580 --> 00:26:37,620
Villepin you or something like
that. I believe he's

457
00:26:37,620 --> 00:26:41,070
got this real like your your
aristocratic gold French name.

458
00:26:41,250 --> 00:26:43,920
Yeah, here I'll I'll look it up
from the link that you can just

459
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,770
see last a billion dollars of
his clients money. Yeah. And

460
00:26:46,770 --> 00:26:49,560
then he figured he saw before
somebody killed him. Yeah,

461
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:49,950
really.

462
00:26:49,980 --> 00:26:53,700
But he slit his wrists. Which is
a an old fashioned old fashioned

463
00:26:53,700 --> 00:26:58,830
very old school. Yeah. Yeah,
Renee. Renee tre my gondola

464
00:26:58,830 --> 00:27:01,320
Villa shoot who should you
should fuck him? He should be

465
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:05,010
dead with a name like that.
Renee cherry my gondola Villu

466
00:27:05,010 --> 00:27:15,360
che darn Yep. Well, every single
day now there's, there's new

467
00:27:17,070 --> 00:27:22,350
what would be the right word to
describe it? harshness coming

468
00:27:22,350 --> 00:27:25,650
out about this fun. I mean, the
amount of people who were

469
00:27:25,740 --> 00:27:30,150
invested directly or probably
worse indirectly through the so

470
00:27:30,150 --> 00:27:33,630
called feeder funds, which were
essentially a fund that you

471
00:27:33,630 --> 00:27:36,750
would you know, you'd put your
money into a fund and that fund

472
00:27:36,750 --> 00:27:39,450
would do nothing but basically
feed the Madoff fund

473
00:27:40,890 --> 00:27:45,090
how lazy can you be Yeah, in
fact me schedule just front

474
00:27:45,090 --> 00:27:47,400
there front loading and it was
just like you know taking your

475
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,430
money charging you a commission
then give it to somebody else

476
00:27:50,460 --> 00:27:53,400
yeah to do it's like I'll
sourcing your investment why do

477
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,590
we why cut out the middleman?
Yeah, so

478
00:27:55,590 --> 00:27:58,260
yeah, they take a fee even
before the money is invested.

479
00:27:58,260 --> 00:28:02,250
They take they were taking a fee
the writer of Forrest Gump, he's

480
00:28:02,250 --> 00:28:07,890
suing his broker for investing
his money indirectly one of

481
00:28:07,890 --> 00:28:11,850
those feeder funds into into
made off and this is what's

482
00:28:11,850 --> 00:28:15,990
crazy, because now there's word
that a lot of the fees and

483
00:28:15,990 --> 00:28:20,070
commissions that were taken will
have to be paid back. So you've

484
00:28:20,070 --> 00:28:25,020
got no schmucks out there who
you know maybe got a 500,000

485
00:28:25,020 --> 00:28:27,990
Maybe a million dollar bonus you
know, bought a house a car put

486
00:28:27,990 --> 00:28:30,750
their kids into college and now
they got to pay that money back.

487
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:36,420
Yeah, well, good. Yeah. Hell
yeah. It was it was so cool.

488
00:28:36,420 --> 00:28:39,360
Last night they had a movie on
here. A true based on a true

489
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:45,090
story. And it really shows you
how wonderful it was. It wasn't

490
00:28:45,090 --> 00:28:47,550
BBC but it really shows you what
they're trying to do, how

491
00:28:47,550 --> 00:28:49,590
they're trying to portray
government workers, you know,

492
00:28:49,590 --> 00:28:54,240
the people from they work for
us.org The a word she was a

493
00:28:54,450 --> 00:28:57,900
There's a famous story, she was
a council worker, and her job

494
00:28:57,900 --> 00:29:02,280
was to collect the parking metre
money and and then keep the

495
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:06,420
accounts and you know of what
she wound up doing. She wound up

496
00:29:06,420 --> 00:29:08,850
skimming and she was skimming
off the top and she was doing

497
00:29:08,850 --> 00:29:11,640
creative book bookkeeping,
because she was very lonely, but

498
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,670
she had an Elvis obsession. And
in her attic, she'd literally

499
00:29:14,670 --> 00:29:19,620
built a 200,000 pound Elvis
Presley collection and shrine of

500
00:29:19,620 --> 00:29:23,670
memorabilia, which he bought at
auctions with this, you know,

501
00:29:23,670 --> 00:29:27,870
200,000 pounds, but they but
they made it like she was a poor

502
00:29:27,870 --> 00:29:31,830
girl, you know, and she she was
a loner and no one had liked her

503
00:29:31,830 --> 00:29:34,080
and no one was nice to her and
so it's of course

504
00:29:34,110 --> 00:29:36,150
no lighter because she was a
criminal or like

505
00:29:36,150 --> 00:29:39,150
throw though, and I kept saying
to Patricia, throw this pitch in

506
00:29:39,150 --> 00:29:42,540
jail now. Even though as an
actress, I'm yelling at the

507
00:29:42,540 --> 00:29:47,370
television, but they they really
twisted the story into making it

508
00:29:47,370 --> 00:29:51,270
nice. But ya know, she was
obsessed and no one loved her

509
00:29:51,270 --> 00:29:55,170
and had an evil stepmom and her
mom died a fuck you. I don't

510
00:29:55,170 --> 00:29:57,090
care. Everyone's got it hard.

511
00:29:58,350 --> 00:30:02,160
Well, except for you. So Now,
Hey, I forgot to mention this. I

512
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,050
was on the, you know, when I
went to Portugal, I watched a

513
00:30:04,050 --> 00:30:07,470
bunch of movies, obviously on
the plane, right? coming and

514
00:30:07,470 --> 00:30:11,550
going. So I watched believe it
and I watched Mamma Mia.

515
00:30:12,330 --> 00:30:17,160
Wow, that's, I would only watch
that if I was certain I was

516
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:17,820
getting laid.

517
00:30:19,199 --> 00:30:22,919
It was terrible. It was like
watching a train wreck

518
00:30:22,979 --> 00:30:26,789
and Meryl Streep who can't sing
and admits it is just bad.

519
00:30:28,620 --> 00:30:31,170
And then the only reason I bring
this up is because I've been

520
00:30:31,170 --> 00:30:34,710
watching a couple you know, I'm
watching some show on TV.

521
00:30:34,710 --> 00:30:37,920
They're raving about this film.
And they're, you know, going on

522
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,190
and on about how great it
wasn't. She's a great what an

523
00:30:41,190 --> 00:30:46,740
actress blah, blah, blah, the
movie and made no sense. It was

524
00:30:46,740 --> 00:30:52,050
stupid. The stories and the
singing was dreadful. And it was

525
00:30:52,050 --> 00:30:55,230
awkward. And it was like what
were these people thinking when

526
00:30:55,230 --> 00:30:57,210
they did that and Pierce Brosnan

527
00:30:57,810 --> 00:30:59,550
Have you seen the the musical?

528
00:31:01,050 --> 00:31:05,190
No sure to the music goes flying
out in the stage. You know if it

529
00:31:05,190 --> 00:31:07,950
was staged, right and you had
you know, people who could who

530
00:31:07,950 --> 00:31:10,800
could belt out a tune for a
theatre audience. I'm sure it

531
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:12,450
was acceptable. Now it

532
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,710
right. I think I told you that
Patricia was offered to do the

533
00:31:16,860 --> 00:31:21,960
Meryl Streep role in the in the
Dutch version. Yoke from the

534
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,140
end. I called her personally.
He's one of the Endemol guys,

535
00:31:25,170 --> 00:31:28,800
and she said No, I hate the
outfits. The songs we all know

536
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:35,160
him. Said but her big problem
was the outfits. She doesn't

537
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,520
like the bell bottoms. Like why
don't wanna wear that.

538
00:31:41,070 --> 00:31:43,860
I was I was being I don't always
I ended up watching as much as I

539
00:31:43,860 --> 00:31:47,220
did. I think I saw most of it.
Because I just couldn't go it's

540
00:31:47,220 --> 00:31:51,510
just my jaw just drops. You
know, go what is what is this

541
00:31:51,630 --> 00:31:53,460
about how bad it was now.

542
00:31:56,040 --> 00:32:01,410
Anyway, so you've seen a good
movies lately? Well, the stream

543
00:32:01,410 --> 00:32:03,150
going we got to be a little more
topical.

544
00:32:03,180 --> 00:32:05,670
Yeah. Although I'm just trying
to figure out why you started.

545
00:32:05,700 --> 00:32:07,800
Are you downloading something
you really started to break up a

546
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:08,490
little bit there?

547
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,440
No, but let me go to No, no. Oh,
wait. There's something going on

548
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:14,280
in my other machine. Let

549
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:24,780
me turn it off. Okay. Anyway,
while you're doing that, here's

550
00:32:25,020 --> 00:32:32,760
if you want to be topical. The
CIA is now bribing Afghanistan

551
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:38,190
war lords. Are you with me?
Yeah. Do you know what the you

552
00:32:38,190 --> 00:32:42,060
know what they're bribing them
with? Now? Let's see. We have

553
00:32:42,060 --> 00:32:45,480
the choice of cash. That's
always a good one. Ah,

554
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,770
we all we have guns. Another
good one. But would you believe

555
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:50,970
Viagra?

556
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:57,270
Really? Yeah. Wow, we're most
creative group of people as an

557
00:32:57,270 --> 00:32:58,410
American CIA.

558
00:32:59,220 --> 00:33:01,020
We really are fantastic. That
was

559
00:33:01,530 --> 00:33:02,130
amazing.

560
00:33:05,100 --> 00:33:07,440
Hey, man, you're still breaking
out. It's really shitty. What

561
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:08,550
the hell is that? Why do

562
00:33:09,870 --> 00:33:11,940
you sound good? There's nothing
going on.

563
00:33:12,450 --> 00:33:16,230
Okay. All right. Nothing to see
here. Just move on. It's just

564
00:33:16,230 --> 00:33:19,470
your ears. People on the
streams?

565
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:21,990
Well, hopefully when you get
your new connection next week,

566
00:33:21,990 --> 00:33:23,550
we'll have this resolved. But
this is

567
00:33:23,550 --> 00:33:26,100
the thing. I believe I was
thinking about it last night

568
00:33:26,100 --> 00:33:29,790
because look, what is this
connection is 1212 kilobit. How

569
00:33:29,790 --> 00:33:33,990
am I gonna hunt maybe? Okay,
make it 100 100 kilobit per

570
00:33:33,990 --> 00:33:37,290
second up 100 kilobits per
second down, right. It can't be

571
00:33:37,290 --> 00:33:40,920
much more than that. In fact, I
can measure it right now. Hold

572
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:42,150
on, I've got a monitor.

573
00:33:42,180 --> 00:33:45,630
And my router is set up to
prioritise such thing. Well,

574
00:33:45,660 --> 00:33:49,740
this, this, I believe, is the
problem. So right now I'm

575
00:33:49,740 --> 00:33:55,440
sending between 20 Yeah, of
course, I'm sending the stream

576
00:33:55,440 --> 00:34:01,020
out. So 20 230 kilobits per
second, and coming in, it's only

577
00:34:01,050 --> 00:34:06,600
you know, it's like one Wait a
minute. Let's see, that makes no

578
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:12,000
sense. Oh, that's kilobytes, so
about 100 100 kilobits per

579
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,110
second. So that's not the entire
pipe so I immediately started

580
00:34:16,110 --> 00:34:18,990
thinking wait a minute, that's
got to be the priority routing

581
00:34:18,990 --> 00:34:23,010
and either a I have to change my
router to prioritise Skype

582
00:34:23,010 --> 00:34:32,130
packets or perhaps the ISP is is
doing nasty things maybe you

583
00:34:32,130 --> 00:34:34,650
know, like after after a while
they just get bored of my

584
00:34:34,650 --> 00:34:37,200
packets and they start to mess
with them. I don't know

585
00:34:40,860 --> 00:34:43,470
You know, I'm a big fan of one
double A football

586
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,100
No, what is one double A
football Well, it's

587
00:34:47,100 --> 00:34:50,220
now called division one but
issue one double A is the really

588
00:34:50,220 --> 00:34:53,400
is college football at its best
because it's not, you know

589
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,000
commercialised guys. It's very
creative. There's a lot of, you

590
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,180
know, experimental play calling
and they have a tonne We're in a

591
00:35:00,180 --> 00:35:02,880
minute, the end of the year,
which everyone wants to the big

592
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:07,740
boys to do. And so this team,
the Richmond Spiders won this

593
00:35:07,740 --> 00:35:10,410
year, and I was rooting
functions, they beat the team

594
00:35:10,410 --> 00:35:13,800
that I was rooting for before.
I'm a bandwagon jumper, by the

595
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:21,300
way, the most hated of all
sports fans. I'm on the winning.

596
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,060
I mean, you know, there's a
study that was done that shows

597
00:35:24,060 --> 00:35:30,270
that the the sports fan has the
same visceral response to

598
00:35:30,270 --> 00:35:34,500
winning and losing as the actual
people playing the game really,

599
00:35:34,830 --> 00:35:39,000
ever see this research? Yeah. So
when you are rooting for the

600
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,920
losing team, and they lose, and
you have the same kind of, you

601
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:47,100
know, does the same kind of body
chemistry stuff to you that it

602
00:35:47,100 --> 00:35:50,790
does to the I can't believe it
does it as bad but does the same

603
00:35:50,790 --> 00:35:54,000
thing to you as it does to the
losing team? And if you win the

604
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,580
same, you know, you feel elated?
And it's good for you. So this

605
00:35:56,580 --> 00:35:56,700
is

606
00:35:56,700 --> 00:36:00,480
just as interesting. And why
does this take place? And is

607
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,530
there a way to harness that and
change it so that people get

608
00:36:04,530 --> 00:36:07,560
those feelings when politicians
screw them out of their money?

609
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,680
Yeah, that would be good,
wouldn't it be because you know,

610
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:14,700
when people lose in fact, when
people when they go out and they

611
00:36:14,700 --> 00:36:19,200
trashed the streets, they burn
cars, they you know, Bluett and

612
00:36:19,950 --> 00:36:23,820
break shops, Windows, but when
there's blatant stealing going

613
00:36:23,820 --> 00:36:25,950
on every single day in front of
their faces,

614
00:36:25,950 --> 00:36:29,940
like oh, I'll just go walk to
one AAA football boat school and

615
00:36:29,940 --> 00:36:37,140
like, boom. So anyway, so the
Richmond Spiders one and I. So

616
00:36:37,140 --> 00:36:39,390
now I have to find some way of
getting a hoodie.

617
00:36:40,169 --> 00:36:41,549
Oh, yes, of course.

618
00:36:42,780 --> 00:36:46,770
Because it's got the logo. It's
got this huge red spider on a

619
00:36:46,770 --> 00:36:50,550
blue black background. It's a
really a cool looking logo for

620
00:36:50,550 --> 00:36:55,200
this team. But I'm unlike
Appalachian State where there's

621
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,510
a bunch of hippies and people
that would listen to this kind

622
00:36:57,510 --> 00:37:00,780
of show. I don't think anybody
the University of Richmond has

623
00:37:00,780 --> 00:37:03,420
ever heard of no agenda and I
really doubt you know, you're

624
00:37:03,420 --> 00:37:04,110
the twit.

625
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,140
Oh, dude, we totally have a
connect somewhere. I guarantee

626
00:37:07,140 --> 00:37:07,320
it.

627
00:37:07,439 --> 00:37:08,969
I guarantee Yeah, I

628
00:37:08,970 --> 00:37:12,600
guarantee you we got like 350
people on the stream right now.

629
00:37:12,630 --> 00:37:17,220
There's people out there if you
take 350 People at power of six

630
00:37:17,220 --> 00:37:21,750
or whatever, whatever it is.
Maybe someone knows someone

631
00:37:21,750 --> 00:37:22,290
somewhere

632
00:37:23,700 --> 00:37:26,160
let anyway I'll probably get to
ever get a hold of one of these

633
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:30,870
things. Just a big spider school
looking so but yeah, so I'm a

634
00:37:30,870 --> 00:37:33,180
bandwagon jumper. And now I
always have the you know, in

635
00:37:33,180 --> 00:37:36,600
fact, I have if you like a Super
Bowl game where there's two

636
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:40,680
teams that I don't care much
about either one or even if I do

637
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,990
care about one you really should
switch sides in the middle of

638
00:37:42,990 --> 00:37:51,930
the game in halftime. I do it oh
man, I know. I know it drives

639
00:37:51,930 --> 00:37:56,070
everybody crazy. How can you do
that and people saying how can

640
00:37:56,070 --> 00:37:58,680
you do that? How could you be
rooted from that now you won't

641
00:37:58,710 --> 00:38:02,010
you don't even won't even talk
about him? Just because they

642
00:38:02,010 --> 00:38:05,430
suck you know the 40 Niners are
good example. Why should I be

643
00:38:05,430 --> 00:38:08,460
rooting for a team that can't
win any games? It doesn't make

644
00:38:08,460 --> 00:38:09,630
any sense. It's called

645
00:38:09,630 --> 00:38:13,350
team spirit. It's called State
spirit or city spirit of which

646
00:38:13,350 --> 00:38:14,700
you clearly have none.

647
00:38:15,060 --> 00:38:18,750
I have zero and I don't intend
to have any I don't see why they

648
00:38:18,750 --> 00:38:22,440
put up regret. It's like a
crappy product. If you know what

649
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:25,020
I supposed to do, but I go to
like you get to say the milk

650
00:38:25,020 --> 00:38:27,810
milk goes sour three days early.
I'm supposed to be rooting for

651
00:38:27,810 --> 00:38:31,230
it. I mean, oh, I just I used to
like to smoke 10 years ago. I

652
00:38:31,230 --> 00:38:34,500
don't you know, I'm still gonna
hope it doesn't go bad. I mean,

653
00:38:34,500 --> 00:38:34,800
it's just

654
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:38,670
a bit of that's a bit of a
stretch as an analogy, but I

655
00:38:38,670 --> 00:38:41,910
understand where you're coming
from. You're coming from an

656
00:38:41,910 --> 00:38:43,440
unloyal plus perspective.

657
00:38:43,860 --> 00:38:49,320
No, it's not unloyal list. This
is a product. It's not anything

658
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:50,040
more than that.

659
00:38:50,070 --> 00:38:52,980
Yeah, but we're troubling but
we're trained differently as

660
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:57,150
product evidence to product
sucks. I'm not rooting for it.

661
00:38:57,150 --> 00:39:01,260
Right. But it's supposed to be a
localised product, and it's just

662
00:39:01,260 --> 00:39:02,910
a marketing Gambit.

663
00:39:04,650 --> 00:39:09,060
I can't fully Uh, can I as hard
as I try? I can't suck it into

664
00:39:09,060 --> 00:39:14,520
it. Hey, man, I'm I'm really
excited. You know? Mythbusters

665
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:20,280
I'm sure you've watched that
show. Oh, yeah. So Mythbusters

666
00:39:20,460 --> 00:39:23,850
now these the guy whenever I
latch on to some kind of

667
00:39:24,689 --> 00:39:27,149
alternate, don't you did? Isn't
the English version slightly

668
00:39:27,149 --> 00:39:28,229
differently of different people?

669
00:39:28,379 --> 00:39:31,859
No, it's the same guys. Okay,
yeah, they may have a different

670
00:39:31,889 --> 00:39:36,749
chick. No, no, I think it's all
the same guys. It certainly was

671
00:39:36,749 --> 00:39:40,169
same Adam and yeah, okay, Adam
and yeah, so it's the same ones.

672
00:39:40,469 --> 00:39:44,639
So whenever I lasted like an
alternative energy theory or

673
00:39:44,639 --> 00:39:47,639
whatever, you know, then I'm all
people always jumping on me say

674
00:39:47,639 --> 00:39:50,819
Well, look, the MythBusters
proved it wasn't true. I love

675
00:39:50,819 --> 00:39:54,689
it. Like the MythBusters like
these fucking bronies are the

676
00:39:54,689 --> 00:39:57,239
capsules are the absolute
scientists of the world and

677
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:01,619
they've got it all figured out.
They make a TV show any way they

678
00:40:01,619 --> 00:40:05,399
have, I'll just read you a piece
from the release, the

679
00:40:05,399 --> 00:40:08,819
MythBusters have finally given
into the pressure. The producers

680
00:40:08,819 --> 00:40:11,099
have been under for several
years now the show asked the

681
00:40:11,099 --> 00:40:14,729
viewers to send their favourites
myth and blahdy blahdy blah. So

682
00:40:14,729 --> 00:40:18,269
they're going to do a two hour
special about the World Trade

683
00:40:18,269 --> 00:40:23,789
Centre and they are going to
prove or debunk that the towers

684
00:40:23,789 --> 00:40:27,989
came down in freefall based upon
steel that melted because of jet

685
00:40:27,989 --> 00:40:32,609
fuel. And the way they're doing
is they're building a 1/3 scale

686
00:40:32,609 --> 00:40:35,909
replica, which still seems
pretty damn big to me. But

687
00:40:35,940 --> 00:40:37,320
no, that doesn't sound right.

688
00:40:38,370 --> 00:40:42,780
It'll cost $7 million. That
sounds kind of right. The whole

689
00:40:42,780 --> 00:40:46,920
production should be about $25
million that Boeing has donated

690
00:40:46,950 --> 00:40:51,630
a scale model aeroplane, they're
really going to try and do this.

691
00:40:53,610 --> 00:40:56,940
And I'd say say goodbye to
Mythbusters as a show forever

692
00:40:56,940 --> 00:41:00,900
once they do that. Because
they'll they'll never they'll

693
00:41:00,900 --> 00:41:03,120
never tell the true story. You
know that?

694
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,970
Well, let's see what happens
when the executive producer

695
00:41:05,970 --> 00:41:07,710
winds up dead alley.

696
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,700
Hell yeah. Who else died Reese?
Oh, you know, it was the kid

697
00:41:11,700 --> 00:41:15,420
died, which kind of sucks. And
I've gotten into the habit which

698
00:41:15,420 --> 00:41:20,940
is a sure sign of old guy stuff.
I read a bitchu Aries, not the

699
00:41:20,940 --> 00:41:23,910
obituary, not the obituary page.
But if I'm reading The Financial

700
00:41:23,910 --> 00:41:28,260
Times they have an obituary, a
playwright, Britain's Nobel

701
00:41:28,260 --> 00:41:29,610
laureate, early writer died.

702
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,610
Yeah, they always die in three.
So he had Eartha Kitt, Harold

703
00:41:32,610 --> 00:41:34,110
Pinter and probably another one
coming.

704
00:41:35,490 --> 00:41:36,930
I thought there was a third one

705
00:41:39,090 --> 00:41:42,210
by the way, net three that three
things was actually appropriate,

706
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:46,980
considering random number
theory. It was not like so

707
00:41:46,980 --> 00:41:51,030
anyway, that Harold Pinter death
who I ran it I didn't, you know,

708
00:41:51,030 --> 00:41:53,820
I've heard of him, but then I
read his bio cheese.

709
00:41:54,720 --> 00:41:56,130
You're like, an obit guy to

710
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,240
know, once in a while. I click
on one no one I say, well,

711
00:42:00,240 --> 00:42:03,870
that's interesting. So and so
died at 90. You know, whatever I

712
00:42:03,870 --> 00:42:07,080
did not used to I think, let me
just see if I can 9192 And then

713
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:10,620
they put up cancer. Well, he
didn't have cancer. He's pretty

714
00:42:10,620 --> 00:42:13,200
old. So I mean, I don't think he
had that. But no, no, no, no,

715
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:13,470
no, no,

716
00:42:13,470 --> 00:42:15,390
he didn't. He didn't die of
cancer. He died of a heart

717
00:42:15,390 --> 00:42:18,990
attack, heart failure. Earth a
kid died of colon cancer.

718
00:42:19,350 --> 00:42:21,540
Okay with that she's the one
that Abed doesn't I don't

719
00:42:21,540 --> 00:42:22,980
understand why, you know, some
people do

720
00:42:23,010 --> 00:42:27,120
which, by the way, if I die of
colon cancer, please don't put

721
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,930
that in the paper. Because then
everyone's thinking my ass. I

722
00:42:30,930 --> 00:42:33,300
don't like that. I don't want
people thinking of my anal

723
00:42:33,300 --> 00:42:39,150
cavity when I'm dead. Just tell
him make it no suicide by

724
00:42:39,210 --> 00:42:41,580
suicide by cop is what I want.

725
00:42:41,970 --> 00:42:45,870
So anyway, you may get it and

726
00:42:46,709 --> 00:42:50,699
friend. So it's right here. I

727
00:42:50,700 --> 00:42:53,580
guess he was just an American
basher. He just blamed us for

728
00:42:53,580 --> 00:42:54,180
everything.

729
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:59,820
Yeah. Like most British people,
is that right? Have you ever

730
00:42:59,820 --> 00:43:02,640
seen the Top Gear episode when
they go to the United States?

731
00:43:02,670 --> 00:43:06,630
Even my wife was offended? And
she's really? Yeah. Oh, yeah.

732
00:43:06,660 --> 00:43:09,780
They it's totally every single
stereotype. They go through the

733
00:43:09,780 --> 00:43:13,830
south. And at one point, they
even paint a white pickup truck

734
00:43:13,830 --> 00:43:15,390
with pink letters like I'm

735
00:43:16,530 --> 00:43:19,230
remember, yeah, may have seen
this one. It was an

736
00:43:19,230 --> 00:43:24,750
A, in fact, they were refused a
licence or a permit to do

737
00:43:24,750 --> 00:43:28,740
another documentary ever again,
unless they you know, it had

738
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,160
educational quality or value,
whatever. But I have to tell

739
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:36,270
you, it was it was so incredibly
biassed. And of course it was

740
00:43:36,300 --> 00:43:39,630
all the stereotypes are there
and it's all true. But it was

741
00:43:39,630 --> 00:43:42,660
offensive. It really was most
Brits we you know, we they talk

742
00:43:42,660 --> 00:43:45,660
about America, they'll start to
laugh for a little bit there. We

743
00:43:45,660 --> 00:43:48,330
were kind of cool because we had
Obama and they're on to it here.

744
00:43:48,330 --> 00:43:54,510
They're like, sucks. But, but
then when they meet you face to

745
00:43:54,510 --> 00:43:55,770
face, they fall in love with
you.

746
00:43:57,030 --> 00:43:59,250
Yeah, well, it's difficult.
Yeah.

747
00:44:00,060 --> 00:44:03,360
But people don't understand you
know, the way we talk and the

748
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,210
way we we come across as being
really dumb. That's just the way

749
00:44:06,210 --> 00:44:12,600
we are. It's nothing wrong with
it. Anyway, Pinter I can't still

750
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,420
can't find his his obituary in
the paper

751
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:17,010
somewhere.

752
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:23,730
Anyway, but Eartha Kitt was. You
remember her when she was big

753
00:44:23,730 --> 00:44:24,600
back in the heyday?

754
00:44:25,500 --> 00:44:28,680
Yeah, back in the 1800s. I
remember her. She was

755
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:36,330
born in 1927. Yeah. Hold on a
second. Yeah, I'm recording on.

756
00:44:38,580 --> 00:44:45,570
I'm recording. Can I help you?
Maybe you're opening the door

757
00:44:49,980 --> 00:44:50,880
she doesn't give a shit.

758
00:44:51,330 --> 00:44:52,560
She needs a foot rub.

759
00:44:53,580 --> 00:44:55,320
She just can't got one the other
day.

760
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:04,410
All right. So I got this letter
from some guy gonna, I'm gonna

761
00:45:04,410 --> 00:45:10,020
publish it probably on my, my
blog or maybe make a column out

762
00:45:10,020 --> 00:45:13,770
of it's kind of interesting. He
says that he was he used to work

763
00:45:13,770 --> 00:45:17,640
at the Cheyenne Wyoming
facility, they were building a

764
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:20,220
Cheyenne Mountain or whatever
it's called for the government.

765
00:45:20,220 --> 00:45:22,800
And he was working with for this
Colonel that used to be on the

766
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:24,000
White House.

767
00:45:25,950 --> 00:45:28,770
Didn't you? Didn't you do this
last week? Did I do this last

768
00:45:28,770 --> 00:45:29,460
week? Yes.

769
00:45:31,950 --> 00:45:34,770
So I haven't done a thing with
this thing. I'm still trying to

770
00:45:34,770 --> 00:45:37,980
figure out what venue it it
needs to be repeated and

771
00:45:37,980 --> 00:45:38,400
repeated?

772
00:45:38,430 --> 00:45:41,160
Well repeat it again. Because
then because I did like it. And

773
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:42,270
I like base habits.

774
00:45:42,270 --> 00:45:44,760
Now I have in front of me, I had
it last week, I could just tell

775
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,370
you, we're gonna tell the story.
So tell the story again. And

776
00:45:47,370 --> 00:45:51,060
then when the story is that, you
know, the government decided

777
00:45:51,060 --> 00:45:53,520
they were going to do martial
law during that Lyndon Johnson

778
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:55,500
administration. But the Pentagon
kept saying, No, we're not going

779
00:45:55,500 --> 00:45:57,420
to do that. Because it's like,
ridiculous, because you're a

780
00:45:57,450 --> 00:46:01,530
wimp. And they tried to get
martial law passed three times.

781
00:46:01,530 --> 00:46:04,620
And they finally decided that
the real problem in the United

782
00:46:04,620 --> 00:46:08,820
States was that we were getting
back in the 60s, we were too

783
00:46:08,820 --> 00:46:12,690
smart. We're getting too smart.
We're getting an educated

784
00:46:12,690 --> 00:46:16,110
public. And so they had to pull
the plug on it, and they banned

785
00:46:16,110 --> 00:46:18,270
it. And they said, Look, we're
not going to be we're not going

786
00:46:18,270 --> 00:46:19,890
to be in the business of
educating people anymore. Let's

787
00:46:19,890 --> 00:46:22,950
just dumb them down. So we have
like a population that is

788
00:46:22,950 --> 00:46:23,670
docile.

789
00:46:23,730 --> 00:46:25,350
All right. Now, do you remember
we went through this whole

790
00:46:25,350 --> 00:46:27,930
thing, and I said, they've got
New World Order in the history

791
00:46:27,930 --> 00:46:28,380
books.

792
00:46:28,860 --> 00:46:31,950
But the thing I forgot to put
mentioned was a couple other

793
00:46:32,010 --> 00:46:36,480
aspects that you know that to,
to calm down the college kids

794
00:46:36,510 --> 00:46:40,650
during this era is when they
develop the quarter, as opposed

795
00:46:40,650 --> 00:46:44,550
to semester system? Really?
Yeah, because they could keep

796
00:46:44,550 --> 00:46:47,670
the kids busy, or because they
had more finals at three,

797
00:46:47,940 --> 00:46:51,630
instead of two final exam
periods. And that would keep

798
00:46:51,630 --> 00:46:52,410
them you know, from

799
00:46:52,439 --> 00:46:54,839
is that is that that's a fact.
That's fascinating. I didn't

800
00:46:54,839 --> 00:46:55,379
know that.

801
00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:57,960
And then the other thing is, if
you go the University of

802
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,420
California, they decided to heck
with it, we you know, we're

803
00:47:00,420 --> 00:47:04,290
gonna just raise the rent. And
in fact, that's one of the

804
00:47:04,290 --> 00:47:06,780
things they did, though, and I
would, that's actually Ronald

805
00:47:06,780 --> 00:47:09,960
Reagan, who, who decided to add
tuition to what was a free

806
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:12,990
school when I went there. You
know, it's a state university

807
00:47:12,990 --> 00:47:16,200
paid for by the taxpayers, why
am I as a California citizen

808
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:20,700
paying to go to my school,
right? And so they ended that in

809
00:47:20,700 --> 00:47:23,940
around 9069 or 1970. Now that
started and then they cranked it

810
00:47:23,940 --> 00:47:26,580
tuition way up. So it's like,
really expensive, does almost

811
00:47:26,580 --> 00:47:30,330
like what private schools used
to be at State University, at a

812
00:47:30,330 --> 00:47:34,110
university, right, owned by the
state. And so that keeps the

813
00:47:34,110 --> 00:47:37,080
riffraff out during you know,
smart kids who would you know,

814
00:47:37,110 --> 00:47:40,290
cause trouble? And then they
said, Well, let's take the up

815
00:47:40,290 --> 00:47:42,750
the ante one more time. You
know, I don't know if it's the

816
00:47:42,750 --> 00:47:46,590
majority, but there's an
inordinate number of Chinese

817
00:47:46,590 --> 00:47:52,980
students who are mostly from,
you know, from China, and Hong

818
00:47:52,980 --> 00:47:55,260
Kong, there was always a lot of
Hong Kong students, even when I

819
00:47:55,260 --> 00:47:57,960
was there, but now they got so
many. It's almost like a

820
00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,800
completely Asian campus. And
it's kept that way. Because

821
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:04,050
these kids are going to do cause
trouble, they're going to get

822
00:48:04,050 --> 00:48:05,070
shipped back because I

823
00:48:05,070 --> 00:48:08,040
tell you something interesting.
When I was flying, when I

824
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:11,310
remember when I flew down to
Yosemite to go meet my buddy

825
00:48:11,310 --> 00:48:14,850
Lex. You don't remember?

826
00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:18,180
Yeah, I do. Because this is the
guy that you meet every number

827
00:48:18,180 --> 00:48:19,350
of years ago with a new
cemetery.

828
00:48:19,410 --> 00:48:25,380
Right? Exactly. So I was flying
down in a Cessna 206 and the

829
00:48:25,380 --> 00:48:29,580
radio is filled with students,
right? Because you know, there's

830
00:48:29,580 --> 00:48:32,490
just a lot of people flying in
California, all of them with

831
00:48:32,490 --> 00:48:35,880
Asian accents. Almost
unintelligible when it comes to

832
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:39,420
their radio traffic what they're
talking about, and I was like,

833
00:48:39,420 --> 00:48:44,460
Dude, what is this? This is not
they can't they can't learn how

834
00:48:44,460 --> 00:48:47,700
to fly in their hometown was too
expensive or whatever. So they

835
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:50,820
all come over here and
throughout the California the

836
00:48:50,820 --> 00:48:54,480
Northern California skies, most
radio traffic for general

837
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:56,910
aviation, Asian outrageous.

838
00:48:58,530 --> 00:49:02,520
Well, that brings up a number of
potential jokes. We

839
00:49:02,550 --> 00:49:05,310
will the jokes are made in the
air and believe me when you just

840
00:49:05,310 --> 00:49:07,380
listen to people trying to
communicate because you can't

841
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,260
it's hard to understand what's
happening with pilots just

842
00:49:10,260 --> 00:49:12,990
saying anyway. And yeah,

843
00:49:12,990 --> 00:49:16,020
just reminding reminded of a
punch line to the Air China

844
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:19,500
catch phrase you know, you've
seen us drive now watches fly

845
00:49:21,240 --> 00:49:28,050
like that. That's good. Well,
you know, the they also I know

846
00:49:28,110 --> 00:49:34,950
that in Hawaii, they a lot of
Japanese are learned to fly

847
00:49:34,950 --> 00:49:37,800
there because Hawaii the
Japanese think they own it. And

848
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:40,320
so they came you know, although
now that they fly over it, it

849
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,600
really screwed them into real
estate. You know, what's the

850
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:46,950
747 700 or that big? I think
there's it's 300 or 400 series

851
00:49:46,950 --> 00:49:48,690
the one that could fly you know,
they just have to stop and

852
00:49:48,690 --> 00:49:52,290
Hawaii to get to Asia right now
they can just dance right over

853
00:49:52,290 --> 00:49:55,200
it goes for now just pass over
the real estate prices collapse

854
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:58,200
there but they like to come over
and take fine lessons and go

855
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:02,160
shooting. They have or gun
ranges, you know, indoor gun

856
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:06,150
ranges where you can shoot
almost anything you want. And if

857
00:50:06,150 --> 00:50:10,890
you look at the Japanese
language, pamphlets that are all

858
00:50:10,890 --> 00:50:13,800
over the place, do you just see
all the advertisements for all

859
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:18,750
these guns, shooting places?
karaoke bars, escort services

860
00:50:18,780 --> 00:50:22,170
and haina flying stuff?

861
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:25,770
I think I think we need to do a
no agenda road trip. We got to

862
00:50:25,770 --> 00:50:26,550
go to Hawaii.

863
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:28,200
Yeah, we should

864
00:50:30,570 --> 00:50:32,550
get us some bitches and shoot
some guns.

865
00:50:32,700 --> 00:50:34,770
You know, we can shoot guns
here. Yeah, but

866
00:50:34,770 --> 00:50:35,640
we want some bitches.

867
00:50:37,410 --> 00:50:38,580
Bitches here, too.

868
00:50:39,180 --> 00:50:41,910
I just wanted to hear you say
it. Hey, let me ask your

869
00:50:41,910 --> 00:50:46,350
question, John. Yes, because I'm
sure that you, at one point have

870
00:50:46,350 --> 00:50:50,130
been economic adviser to the
government. How does this just

871
00:50:50,130 --> 00:50:56,640
happened in in Russia? They
devalued the ruble. How do you

872
00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:58,770
devalue the money? How is that
done?

873
00:51:00,030 --> 00:51:04,530
You, you use you make an
announcement. And

874
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:10,320
I just sent out a press release
on PR market wire.com.

875
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:14,370
Yeah, then you peg it to a
different figure. You know, in

876
00:51:14,370 --> 00:51:18,270
other words, it was like if it
was one ruble, or let's say 20

877
00:51:18,270 --> 00:51:22,500
rubles, $1. And you haven't been
and it's indexed against the

878
00:51:22,500 --> 00:51:24,390
dollar, you just say okay, now
it's 40.

879
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:28,140
So that's kind of my question
is, is that always done against

880
00:51:28,140 --> 00:51:32,730
the dollar? Is Russia doing this
against the dollar? Or other

881
00:51:33,090 --> 00:51:33,960
other countries, which

882
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,600
has to be done against the major
currencies? Which is the dollar,

883
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,020
the yen and the euro? And then
the rest is fall in line?

884
00:51:43,890 --> 00:51:47,370
Well, I think it's interesting
that that's happening.

885
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,910
Well, it's a four, you know,
isn't it? Yeah, I guess, doesn't

886
00:51:53,910 --> 00:51:56,610
sound like a, you know, it's
always a bad thing. When it

887
00:51:56,610 --> 00:51:57,120
happens.

888
00:51:57,210 --> 00:52:00,060
Well, I understand what they say
they're doing it because oil

889
00:52:00,060 --> 00:52:04,380
revenues are so much lower. So I
guess then if you devalue the

890
00:52:04,410 --> 00:52:09,060
currency, then everything you
sell. Now, wait a minute.

891
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:12,930
I'm gonna let's figure this out.
Okay. So they,

892
00:52:13,170 --> 00:52:16,740
instead of the times, literally
said they devalue the currency

893
00:52:16,740 --> 00:52:19,650
because oil revenues were so
low. So that means they hate

894
00:52:19,650 --> 00:52:23,550
right. So you got st. So you're
getting $60 A barrel that say,

895
00:52:23,580 --> 00:52:26,610
yeah, and let's say that $60
Translate, we're just going to

896
00:52:26,610 --> 00:52:32,160
do a one to one thing as to make
the $60 translated to 60 rubles,

897
00:52:32,190 --> 00:52:36,360
right. So now you're getting $30
a barrel. And so you want to

898
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,840
still have it translate to 60
rubles. So you, you cut the

899
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:40,800
currency in half.

900
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:44,370
Well, they didn't do that since.

901
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:46,980
Yeah, makes sense. You just
index it against because you're

902
00:52:46,980 --> 00:52:48,600
doing the oil deals in dollars.

903
00:52:50,010 --> 00:52:55,200
Right. Okay. Yeah, that's it.
It's so that you can buy the via

904
00:52:55,200 --> 00:53:02,850
the peg currency cheaper. Is
that right? Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

905
00:53:04,530 --> 00:53:08,520
Well, 3% doesn't sound like a
half. But I guess it means

906
00:53:08,730 --> 00:53:10,920
the only deal only did 3%.

907
00:53:11,250 --> 00:53:13,650
I think so. Well, that's kind of

908
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:14,430
silly.

909
00:53:14,790 --> 00:53:17,460
Well, let me see. Maybe that was
there was some other country

910
00:53:17,460 --> 00:53:20,610
that that also devalued that
made that may have been the one

911
00:53:20,610 --> 00:53:24,060
that did 3%. But this isn't, but
they have devalued it like four

912
00:53:24,060 --> 00:53:28,440
times in the past month. Like a
one shot deal. You know, it just

913
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:30,990
keeps on going. I can't find
anything in this. Maybe I saw it

914
00:53:30,990 --> 00:53:34,890
in yesterday's paper.
Interesting to see that William

915
00:53:34,890 --> 00:53:39,060
Hill, one of the big bookie
chains here in the UK, they've

916
00:53:39,060 --> 00:53:42,270
got 1.4 billion pounds worth of
debt they're trying to

917
00:53:42,270 --> 00:53:48,330
refinance, a bookie I know debt.
Aren't those guys to talk about

918
00:53:48,330 --> 00:53:50,880
a pyramid scheme. Aren't those
guys supposed to be like making

919
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:55,170
money off of this? And then
they've got a huge 1.4 billion

920
00:53:55,170 --> 00:53:56,340
pound of debt.

921
00:53:57,450 --> 00:53:58,740
Does that sound right?

922
00:54:00,390 --> 00:54:03,000
Yeah, no, it says it right here.

923
00:54:03,660 --> 00:54:05,640
You will? I'm sure it does.
Yeah.

924
00:54:05,790 --> 00:54:08,520
Well, it's the Financial Times
you got to believe something at

925
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:15,750
a certain point. And I get I
guess, really the big news,

926
00:54:15,750 --> 00:54:18,450
which is kind of the news that
we'll be talking about for for

927
00:54:18,450 --> 00:54:22,770
many years to come. Is of course
what's happening and I was in

928
00:54:22,770 --> 00:54:26,880
Australia where they are about
to start for they want to put

929
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:31,320
into law that they're going to
filter the internet. Yeah. So

930
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:35,670
today, the the minute the cult,
the minister of culture in the

931
00:54:35,670 --> 00:54:39,030
United Kingdom came out and said
we need ratings for websites.

932
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:44,910
Now you go ratings if it's
inappropriate for children, and

933
00:54:45,180 --> 00:54:48,450
you know you there's 1000s of
websites that show you how to

934
00:54:48,450 --> 00:54:52,260
make a bomb. Do we have to stop
this like do this 1000s of

935
00:54:52,260 --> 00:54:57,120
libraries were closed the
libraries burn the books? Fine.

936
00:54:57,390 --> 00:55:01,410
It's out of control and and the
news Just by the quality of

937
00:55:01,410 --> 00:55:04,200
minutes you sent me the rating
to the website to protect

938
00:55:04,830 --> 00:55:06,570
your minister in Australia.

939
00:55:06,630 --> 00:55:09,120
No, no, this is the cultural
Minister of the United Kingdom.

940
00:55:09,780 --> 00:55:10,800
Oh, yeah, no, I'm

941
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:11,910
saying culture minister.

942
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:13,560
Well, sorry.

943
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:15,990
The queen was the culture
minister.

944
00:55:16,050 --> 00:55:20,160
Oh man, she's the head reptile.
You gotta hold it. Oh, this Oh,

945
00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:24,300
dude, here's one for you. So a
big cultural deal in the United

946
00:55:24,300 --> 00:55:30,390
Kingdom on Christmas Day at 3pm.
The Queen's speech to the to, to

947
00:55:30,390 --> 00:55:35,940
the country to her what do you
call them? Many objects

948
00:55:35,970 --> 00:55:40,950
subjects. That's it. And and we
I think we've missed it every

949
00:55:40,950 --> 00:55:42,870
single year because you know,
it's not you know, I

950
00:55:42,870 --> 00:55:45,240
saw it it was I was up in
Washington. I think I saw it.

951
00:55:45,240 --> 00:55:48,270
They think they broadcast it on
Canadian news. I'm sure

952
00:55:48,270 --> 00:55:50,730
they do. Because of course
Canada is controlled by the

953
00:55:50,730 --> 00:55:56,220
Queen still. And yeah, and it's
more than just set dressing

954
00:55:56,250 --> 00:55:59,100
witness would just happen
anyway, that I don't want to get

955
00:55:59,100 --> 00:56:01,080
into that because we'll get all
the Canadians pissed off again.

956
00:56:03,330 --> 00:56:07,440
So I'm like ready for this? And
so what she does is she starts

957
00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:11,250
off and she says not a not a
smile, right? It's just It's

958
00:56:11,610 --> 00:56:16,020
just horrible. It's just really
cold and impersonal. And the

959
00:56:16,020 --> 00:56:18,450
Brits are like, Oh, we love
watching the Queen's speech. So

960
00:56:18,450 --> 00:56:20,550
okay, well watch the Queen's
speech. So we're all ready by

961
00:56:20,550 --> 00:56:24,360
the way Top of the Pops came
back for a special hour and a

962
00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:28,560
half show before that which was
pretty cool. Anyway, so it comes

963
00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:31,530
on she says well you know what
I've learned is that when I work

964
00:56:31,530 --> 00:56:35,460
with people who help others in
these trying times that they

965
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:38,700
they truly are fulfilled that
they have fulfilled lives and

966
00:56:38,700 --> 00:56:42,270
they truly are happy and then
they switched to these this EMG

967
00:56:42,270 --> 00:56:46,470
footage of her boys you know
visiting poor kids and then

968
00:56:46,590 --> 00:56:52,230
there's Charles somewhere with
the African kids and and this is

969
00:56:52,230 --> 00:56:55,050
like well see this is my family
see how much they do for other

970
00:56:55,050 --> 00:56:58,350
people that's what you should
do. Merry Christmas. And that

971
00:56:58,350 --> 00:57:02,880
was it. Like it was it was
absolutely I was shocked

972
00:57:03,630 --> 00:57:06,000
I saw that's what I see they had
they showed the kids they're

973
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:08,190
always you know the these people
they

974
00:57:08,190 --> 00:57:11,910
have no jobs no kidding it's
easy for them to go around doing

975
00:57:11,940 --> 00:57:15,960
good when you have endless tax
money to spend and no jobs

976
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:20,880
and these are just obvious photo
ops guys probably blue in there

977
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:23,640
sat down okay took a couple
shots Okay, let me get out of

978
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:24,930
here and there that will wash up

979
00:57:25,410 --> 00:57:28,560
and I and I've been reading the
papers and I please tell me that

980
00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:33,060
some journalist somewhere some
editorial writer just said What

981
00:57:33,060 --> 00:57:37,320
the frig was that literally
here's my family they're so

982
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:40,230
great they help everybody up oh
that she thought a little bit of

983
00:57:40,230 --> 00:57:45,270
Jesus there too. Yeah, a little
bit of God love which is fine.

984
00:57:45,900 --> 00:57:48,210
But did you use I mean, I'm
sitting there going to test the

985
00:57:48,210 --> 00:57:52,110
British public actually eat this
shit up. I mean, it was

986
00:57:52,110 --> 00:57:56,520
offensive. You should be more
like my family. Because then you

987
00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:59,910
will truly be happy. The

988
00:58:01,830 --> 00:58:05,370
way well, what can I say?
There's still a lot of

989
00:58:05,370 --> 00:58:08,820
monarchists in that country.
Tickets great dabba queen.

990
00:58:10,590 --> 00:58:13,230
I don't know any personally, to
be quite honest,

991
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:16,680
broken into a number of them.
Over the years.

992
00:58:17,459 --> 00:58:23,069
I've always liked the idea of,
of a monarch but and and it

993
00:58:23,069 --> 00:58:25,679
really disappointed me in the
Netherlands when we had a couple

994
00:58:25,679 --> 00:58:28,799
of you know, we had one week
before the national general

995
00:58:28,799 --> 00:58:32,789
election, the leading politician
Pim Fortuyn was assassinated was

996
00:58:32,789 --> 00:58:37,199
shot. And that was the moment
when you know, you'd expect the

997
00:58:37,199 --> 00:58:40,529
Queen because the whole country
was frozen. It was like, wow,

998
00:58:40,529 --> 00:58:43,619
what just happened? You know,
there was like the scale of JFK.

999
00:58:44,009 --> 00:58:49,019
And everyone still knows where
they were when PIM got shot. And

1000
00:58:49,019 --> 00:58:51,659
the Queen didn't say anything. I
was like, this is a part she'd

1001
00:58:51,659 --> 00:58:54,659
come out on TV and say all
right, you know, whatever. Just

1002
00:58:54,659 --> 00:58:58,199
make people feel good. Kind of
like a motherly matronly type

1003
00:58:58,199 --> 00:59:02,999
thing. No way. Cold, cold as ice
as because they don't care. They

1004
00:59:02,999 --> 00:59:05,459
don't love us. They don't love
their subjects.

1005
00:59:06,900 --> 00:59:10,560
Well, they're not supposed to do
that under no obligation. No,

1006
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:10,740
you're

1007
00:59:10,740 --> 00:59:14,940
right. Their job is to fight
wars and grab land. That's all

1008
00:59:14,940 --> 00:59:16,950
they've done their entire lives.

1009
00:59:19,050 --> 00:59:21,870
How's things going in Belgium,
by the way, have not

1010
00:59:21,870 --> 00:59:27,810
heard a lot. The last I read is
that the king of Belgium, he has

1011
00:59:27,810 --> 00:59:31,350
to officially decide if he
accepts the part because the

1012
00:59:31,350 --> 00:59:35,850
cabinet fell. But he has to
still, which is kind of weird.

1013
00:59:35,850 --> 00:59:38,880
You know, it's like, okay, the
cabinet fell. We don't want to

1014
00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:41,610
work together anymore. And he
still has to say okay, that

1015
00:59:41,610 --> 00:59:46,800
you're allowed. You're allowed
to fall. Yeah. So he may I don't

1016
00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:49,440
know he may be he has accepted
it. But yeah, Belgium is a funny

1017
00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:51,240
country. You won't hear anything
about it doesn't

1018
00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:57,000
exist in Silicon Valley. You
know, I mean, it's like Belgian

1019
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:00,000
is a creation is a good crack,
you know, did you actually win

1020
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:02,430
Wikipedia even though I don't
think it's a great resource for

1021
01:00:02,430 --> 01:00:04,140
a lot of stuff has a pretty good
breakdown of

1022
01:00:04,140 --> 01:00:05,910
it. It's kind of it's kind of a

1023
01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:10,230
phoney baloney thing from the
get go

1024
01:00:10,500 --> 01:00:13,380
it was the French and the Dutch
and then they they really didn't

1025
01:00:13,380 --> 01:00:16,020
like each other and then they
kind of got this middle bit

1026
01:00:16,020 --> 01:00:18,960
which is like a border I guess I
really why border?

1027
01:00:20,130 --> 01:00:24,060
Yeah, so white border
whiteboard. And isn't it ironic

1028
01:00:24,060 --> 01:00:28,260
that the white border called
Belgium is actually now running

1029
01:00:28,290 --> 01:00:30,180
the entire EU? Yeah,

1030
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:33,990
Russell's I know, only only half
the time though, because we have

1031
01:00:33,990 --> 01:00:37,020
to be in Strasbourg because the
French wanted their little

1032
01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:41,880
little power centre. So the
government a lot of people don't

1033
01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:45,420
know this, but the European
Parliament actually moves

1034
01:00:45,420 --> 01:00:47,850
there'll be in Brussels one
month and then they go to

1035
01:00:47,850 --> 01:00:51,300
Strausberg the next month. I've
got duplicate offices. It's a

1036
01:00:51,300 --> 01:00:52,500
huge expense.

1037
01:00:53,310 --> 01:00:56,850
I would think yeah, all a lot of
travel to offices to everything.

1038
01:00:56,850 --> 01:00:58,950
You got to move back and forth
and back and forth. Yeah,

1039
01:00:58,980 --> 01:01:02,310
I mean, that inconvenient. No,
that's, that's only reserved for

1040
01:01:02,310 --> 01:01:03,120
people like me.

1041
01:01:03,990 --> 01:01:06,150
That's ridiculous. Well, you
never move. You're just always

1042
01:01:06,150 --> 01:01:09,570
in England. You never come over
here much. Plus not even true.

1043
01:01:09,810 --> 01:01:11,970
I was over there for three
weeks.

1044
01:01:13,230 --> 01:01:16,950
That was the one big that's not
the same as being one month

1045
01:01:16,950 --> 01:01:18,990
there. And then month here and
then a month there and a month

1046
01:01:18,990 --> 01:01:21,270
here and a month there and a
month to here like they do with

1047
01:01:21,270 --> 01:01:23,430
that crazy EU parliament. But
you know what?

1048
01:01:23,730 --> 01:01:27,960
If I was trying to really save
the country, then I might

1049
01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:36,630
consider it. I think you're
overdue. Now Oh, man.

1050
01:01:37,290 --> 01:01:41,310
Not coming until February.
Maybe? I am overdue for a

1051
01:01:41,310 --> 01:01:43,890
restaurant. Yeah, I'm overdue
for some food. That's for sure.

1052
01:01:43,890 --> 01:01:45,330
You gotta come over and hang out
with me.

1053
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,750
Yeah, it's just getting to the
point where I can afford it.

1054
01:01:50,340 --> 01:01:54,240
Yeah, it is. It's $1.46. I think
now for the panel.

1055
01:01:54,630 --> 01:01:57,420
That's perfect. That's what it
should be. Yeah, it's,

1056
01:01:57,660 --> 01:02:01,140
it's good. It's always been
about a buck. 50 And that's your

1057
01:02:01,140 --> 01:02:02,220
right. That's what it should be.

1058
01:02:02,939 --> 01:02:07,349
Yeah, usually fluctuates between
a buck 45 and a buck 55. Usually

1059
01:02:07,349 --> 01:02:09,359
that mean, that's what I've
always seen and then all of a

1060
01:02:09,359 --> 01:02:12,719
sudden it goes to two with the
inflation you already have over

1061
01:02:12,719 --> 01:02:14,189
there. Cheese.

1062
01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:18,810
Yeah, the inflation is pretty
bad. But you know, Gordon Brown

1063
01:02:18,810 --> 01:02:22,260
the guy who was at the helm when
and steered us right into the

1064
01:02:22,260 --> 01:02:25,050
credit crisis here in the UK.
You know, he's the guy running

1065
01:02:25,050 --> 01:02:28,440
the show. He's gonna save us. So
he says

1066
01:02:30,540 --> 01:02:34,890
so I'm going to go to Amsterdam,
hopefully in April and I'm gonna

1067
01:02:34,890 --> 01:02:39,120
go at the end of the month where
they have this baby called Queen

1068
01:02:39,150 --> 01:02:39,870
Queens day.

1069
01:02:39,900 --> 01:02:44,220
Yeah, April 30 Is the Queen's
Birthday. In the Netherlands,

1070
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:47,490
although it is not actually her
birthday anymore. It is still

1071
01:02:47,490 --> 01:02:51,450
observed on that day. And the
cool thing about it is it's a

1072
01:02:51,810 --> 01:02:52,920
national

1073
01:02:53,190 --> 01:02:55,140
boy anyway, it's not her
birthday anymore that she

1074
01:02:55,140 --> 01:02:56,040
changed her birthday. I

1075
01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:58,980
think it was her grandmother's
birthday. They just kept it on

1076
01:02:58,980 --> 01:03:02,760
the same day. It's kind of a
good day because 30th of April

1077
01:03:03,330 --> 01:03:07,170
it's not really cold you know,
everyone can still have hopes

1078
01:03:07,170 --> 01:03:12,840
for a sunny day. So so the the
29th Evening before particularly

1079
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:16,230
in Amsterdam is where you really
want to be it's just mayhem and

1080
01:03:16,230 --> 01:03:18,720
if the weather's nice then it's
crazy everyone's just you know,

1081
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:24,180
bar crawling just drunk off just
tits up drunk and the next day

1082
01:03:24,180 --> 01:03:27,840
everybody can mark out their
spot layout their little blanket

1083
01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:32,610
and sell anything you want to
sell. No tax no sales tax no

1084
01:03:32,610 --> 01:03:36,270
nothing, sell whatever you want.
It's like one huge flea market

1085
01:03:36,510 --> 01:03:39,390
the whole country but Amsterdam
is probably the best place to

1086
01:03:39,390 --> 01:03:43,830
be. And there's great shit and
lots of music and food and a lot

1087
01:03:43,830 --> 01:03:46,860
of people choose to set up you
know, the be cooking something

1088
01:03:46,860 --> 01:03:49,440
and they'll sell that instead of
their, you know, their old

1089
01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:53,160
radios and you find the weirdest
things and usually come home

1090
01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:58,950
with just lots of other people's
junk. Like a recycling

1091
01:03:58,950 --> 01:04:01,890
programme. Yeah, it's a
recycling programme. Everyone

1092
01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:03,870
passes on some junk to somebody
else

1093
01:04:05,190 --> 01:04:08,220
might be a good time to you
might be I wouldn't be trying to

1094
01:04:08,220 --> 01:04:14,610
scrounge all art I would think
that Amsterdam has a lot of you

1095
01:04:14,610 --> 01:04:16,140
know, art.

1096
01:04:16,289 --> 01:04:20,459
I tell you the old art and I
have a couple pieces. It's it's

1097
01:04:20,459 --> 01:04:25,739
not selling? None of that stuff
is selling. Good. Yeah, I mean,

1098
01:04:25,739 --> 01:04:29,069
I'm not looking to sell them but
I do kind of pay attention from

1099
01:04:29,069 --> 01:04:34,349
time to time to see if any
category I have gets hot. It's

1100
01:04:34,349 --> 01:04:38,129
pretty much like our global
warming right now for everything

1101
01:04:38,129 --> 01:04:38,639
I have.

1102
01:04:40,380 --> 01:04:43,980
But do you have those expensive
Rembrandt's that you've

1103
01:04:43,980 --> 01:04:44,520
collected?

1104
01:04:44,550 --> 01:04:49,590
Now I don't have Rembrandt's but
I have a rule A which is French

1105
01:04:49,590 --> 01:04:54,780
I have a dad bless which is
pretty well known Dutch Jewish

1106
01:04:54,780 --> 01:04:58,560
painter. That's significant
that's significant because of

1107
01:04:58,590 --> 01:05:04,020
the topics that he paints And we
have another semi master. And it

1108
01:05:04,020 --> 01:05:06,630
just did a nice paintings we
did. They're beautiful we like

1109
01:05:06,630 --> 01:05:07,920
and we hang them up we look at
him.

1110
01:05:09,660 --> 01:05:12,720
Show if I go to Amsterdam you're
going to come over and be the

autograph?

1114
01:05:19,649 --> 01:05:23,189
No, because I'm I have an
attitude and I'm six feet tall.

1115
01:05:23,219 --> 01:05:24,149
No one bothers me.

1116
01:05:24,750 --> 01:05:30,750
Really? Yeah. They just stare

giggling about him or anything

1119
01:05:36,540 --> 01:05:38,670
Patricia? You want to drag her
around? That would be something

1120
01:05:38,700 --> 01:05:39,300
No, she won't

1121
01:05:39,300 --> 01:05:45,930
go because she's five foot
forever and and it's very she

1122
01:05:45,930 --> 01:05:48,330
gets very anxious in those
situations because a lot of

1123
01:05:48,330 --> 01:05:50,850
people you know when she's in a
crowd of a lot of people she's

1124
01:05:50,850 --> 01:05:54,240
basically you know, staring into
their belly buttons and it's not

1125
01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:58,050
a not a happy not a happy
experience she does not like

1126
01:05:58,290 --> 01:06:03,270
that's why we moved away and my
wife is so incredibly famous

1127
01:06:03,270 --> 01:06:06,690
there particularly with all the
shows she's doing you know when

1128
01:06:06,690 --> 01:06:08,940
she no matter where she goes if
she wants them to shop

1129
01:06:08,940 --> 01:06:12,540
everyone's gonna look and watch
what she's buying you know it's

1130
01:06:12,540 --> 01:06:15,930
not yeah you understand people
like Britney Spears and Lindsay

1131
01:06:15,930 --> 01:06:19,860
Lohan minus the the shaving of
the head stuff but he's really

1132
01:06:19,860 --> 01:06:23,070
an I come over Can I come to
visit the Abode Darren in London

1133
01:06:23,070 --> 01:06:25,710
take a few shots of her and then
sell to the tabloids in

1134
01:06:25,710 --> 01:06:27,510
Amsterdam pick up some money
I'll split it with you

1135
01:06:27,540 --> 01:06:30,390
yeah he wouldn't be the first
shirt no problem but we gotta we

1136
01:06:30,390 --> 01:06:32,850
gotta set up we got to have a
story you know I mean I got

1137
01:06:32,850 --> 01:06:35,370
those ins no problem. You got to
have the right story though. You

1138
01:06:35,370 --> 01:06:38,460
got to and then you you know you
got to stick the appropriate

1139
01:06:38,460 --> 01:06:40,770
picture you got you got to snap
the right one so

1140
01:06:41,280 --> 01:06:42,570
Oh, you know you shoot a lot

1141
01:06:44,250 --> 01:06:48,480
but there's already been stories
about our new house in in the

1142
01:06:48,480 --> 01:06:52,710
tabloids Oh, yeah, they'll come
looking they always do that's

1143
01:06:52,710 --> 01:06:54,930
why Patricia gave them a
pictures and here's a picture of

1144
01:06:54,930 --> 01:06:58,830
the house. Yeah, go public which
isn't which is the funniest

1145
01:06:58,830 --> 01:07:02,790
thing. She just got a picture
off of off of off of the net

1146
01:07:02,790 --> 01:07:07,710
somewhere that you know, looks
like our house. As you sent it

1147
01:07:07,710 --> 01:07:12,060
to the to the she sent it to the
journalist and he published it.

1148
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:16,950
Her new house. So funny.

1149
01:07:17,580 --> 01:07:21,810
Yeah, well, sure. After they
listen to this there will be

1150
01:07:21,810 --> 01:07:24,060
like, Whoa, they probably don't
know who listens to this show.

1151
01:07:24,900 --> 01:07:28,080
Well, yeah, dedicated listeners.
But I don't think the journalist

1152
01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:29,820
had got the fake pictures one of
them.

1153
01:07:29,970 --> 01:07:33,840
Now. They never listened. If
they actually listened to any of

1154
01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:38,580
my shows, man, they could be
writing for hours. We got a lot

1155
01:07:38,580 --> 01:07:40,950
of people I think listening on
iPhones, you always see these

1156
01:07:41,070 --> 01:07:45,120
singular dotnet. I know people
listen to the streams on on

1157
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:51,690
iPhone. And it's kind of cool.
Speaking of paintings, at least

1158
01:07:51,690 --> 01:07:55,080
50 paintings from the Government
Art Collection, which I don't I

1159
01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:57,870
didn't know existed, I presume
something like that would would

1160
01:07:57,870 --> 01:08:01,200
exist, are missing and
unaccounted for?

1161
01:08:01,919 --> 01:08:06,719
What Government Art Collection?
The one in England? Yes. Well,

1162
01:08:06,719 --> 01:08:09,809
it's probably something like the
National Gallery in Washington,

1163
01:08:09,809 --> 01:08:12,779
they have, you know, they have
at least the guy who I was

1164
01:08:12,809 --> 01:08:14,969
walking around looking at I
looked at it paint a picture

1165
01:08:14,969 --> 01:08:16,679
there I was looking at this
picture was I can't remember the

1166
01:08:16,679 --> 01:08:18,539
artists name, but it was just
really fascinating. Never heard

1167
01:08:18,539 --> 01:08:21,989
of this guy's kind of a American
impressionist or something from

1168
01:08:21,989 --> 01:08:26,039
around 1820 or 1920. I mean, and
then I asked one of the guys

1169
01:08:26,039 --> 01:08:28,979
that stand around to make sure
you're not, you know, poking

1170
01:08:28,979 --> 01:08:31,679
holes in it. I said, Well, who
is this guy? And I asked him

1171
01:08:31,679 --> 01:08:33,839
when he says, I don't know, they
probably brought that up from

1172
01:08:33,869 --> 01:08:36,299
you know, down below, they
always move stuff up and down

1173
01:08:36,299 --> 01:08:39,299
and up and down. He says, you
know, he says only about a

1174
01:08:39,299 --> 01:08:41,729
quarter of the collection is
actually up here.

1175
01:08:42,330 --> 01:08:45,900
Right? They rotate it because
someone's gonna have a job.

1176
01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:49,140
And so they rotate. I mean, they
keep the classics, you know,

1177
01:08:49,140 --> 01:08:51,240
that everybody wants to see but
then they rotate all this all

1178
01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:53,970
this other stuff. But I'm
thinking so three quarters of

1179
01:08:53,970 --> 01:08:58,890
the paintings are down in the
basement, they could you know,

1180
01:08:59,250 --> 01:09:01,860
I'm sure stuff could disappear
effortlessly. We're talking

1181
01:09:01,860 --> 01:09:04,680
1000s and 1000s of paintings and
they'd probably only inventory

1182
01:09:04,680 --> 01:09:08,040
at once every few years. Well of
the 50s a lot. But those oh

1183
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:10,170
those will show up they got all
these systems

1184
01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:15,150
to listen to listen to this.
Listen to this. They just did an

1185
01:09:15,150 --> 01:09:19,110
audit 50 are unaccounted for
none of them were insured. Some

1186
01:09:19,110 --> 01:09:22,260
are known to have been stolen
but more than half the total

1187
01:09:22,260 --> 01:09:23,460
simply disappeared.

1188
01:09:24,660 --> 01:09:27,720
The whole collection worth about
100 million pounds so I'm sure

1189
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:31,320
that there's some nice pieces
that have walked out

1190
01:09:32,970 --> 01:09:38,340
well you know, they the biggest
show they say in the art world

1191
01:09:40,650 --> 01:09:46,170
instigators of this sort of
thing are the Swiss. Oh, yeah.

1192
01:09:46,170 --> 01:09:49,170
LED paintings all end up in the
Swiss collections that never go

1193
01:09:49,170 --> 01:09:51,210
on the auction block never show
up and Gauss is just in

1194
01:09:51,210 --> 01:09:55,020
somebody's house. Because the
Swiss are less likely. I mean,

1195
01:09:55,020 --> 01:09:57,030
they've apparently you know if
you know you know you can't

1196
01:09:57,030 --> 01:09:59,970
steal a great painting and

1197
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:02,700
Selling what you can sell it
sell. You know you're stuck.

1198
01:10:02,940 --> 01:10:03,300
Yeah.

1199
01:10:04,380 --> 01:10:06,150
So if you want if you still like

1200
01:10:06,150 --> 01:10:09,600
it like it's like, you're stuck
with that frickin Mona Lisa, I

1201
01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:12,990
am gonna slap that bitches smile
on her face one of these days.

1202
01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:18,390
Well, that was stolen, by the
way. I know. I know. Yes. And so

1203
01:10:19,140 --> 01:10:21,690
well, I don't mean stuck with
it. But if you don't live as a

1204
01:10:21,690 --> 01:10:23,700
painting you don't like you're
stuck with it. But if it's a

1205
01:10:23,700 --> 01:10:25,800
painting, yeah, you can put it
up on your walls, you know,

1206
01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:28,320
claim it's, you know, I would
just had to have a piece like

1207
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:31,080
that. I'd say, Yeah, I had it
copied in China. You know, this

1208
01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:32,190
is a pretty No, no,

1209
01:10:32,190 --> 01:10:34,590
no, what you're supposed to do
is when you're sitting around

1210
01:10:34,590 --> 01:10:38,400
with all your Illuminati
brethren, you sit there and you

1211
01:10:38,430 --> 01:10:41,280
pet your white pussy, and you
smoke your Cuban cigar, and you

1212
01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:44,550
look at your stolen painting,
and you enjoy it because you are

1213
01:10:44,550 --> 01:10:47,550
sophisticated, much more
sophisticated than the weed

1214
01:10:47,550 --> 01:10:48,780
people, the sub more

1215
01:10:48,780 --> 01:10:51,000
than you, you'd have to I think
if you're going to do it that

1216
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:52,410
way, you have to push a button
and in

1217
01:10:53,040 --> 01:10:56,460
a while revolves right with with
perfect lighting, of course, it

1218
01:10:56,460 --> 01:11:01,530
goes without saying the Dutch.
Go ahead. Go ahead. No, I was

1219
01:11:01,530 --> 01:11:05,460
gonna I was gonna say that. The
Dutch socialist system 20 years

1220
01:11:05,460 --> 01:11:08,610
ago, I don't know if they still
do it. You know, there were lots

1221
01:11:08,610 --> 01:11:12,450
of artists and artists can study
art for free in at school,

1222
01:11:12,450 --> 01:11:15,570
because it's a socialist system,
unlike what we discussed with

1223
01:11:15,570 --> 01:11:22,770
the US state government run
institutions. But the deal was

1224
01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:27,990
all the art they made, you could
actually go and on a rotating

1225
01:11:27,990 --> 01:11:31,080
basis, you could, you know, pick
up three or four paintings,

1226
01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:33,840
maybe a sculpture, put it in
your house for six months. And

1227
01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:35,880
then after six months, you bring
it back and you get some other

1228
01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:38,100
stuff that some students had
made. They put it into

1229
01:11:38,100 --> 01:11:40,800
circulation within society,
which I always thought was kind

1230
01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:41,250
of cool.

1231
01:11:41,820 --> 01:11:44,190
Well, you know, the there's a
bunch of museums that do that.

1232
01:11:44,550 --> 01:11:47,520
Now, the Oakland Museum has a
collection that they rotates

1233
01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:50,190
around the University of
California has a pretty big art

1234
01:11:50,190 --> 01:11:53,220
collection that they used to
loan out. I think I had to take

1235
01:11:53,220 --> 01:11:56,790
insurance out or something. I
think that's it. But yeah, and

1236
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:59,550
anyway, so I mean, I don't think
it's totally, you know, out of

1237
01:11:59,550 --> 01:12:03,540
the out of the ordinary. Now
anyway, we're talking about

1238
01:12:03,540 --> 01:12:06,480
these very dark collections that
we use, and I mentioned it so I

1239
01:12:06,480 --> 01:12:11,490
went to this I had this event I
went to in Korea, and met the

1240
01:12:11,490 --> 01:12:15,030
public relations guy they tell
you about this public relations

1241
01:12:15,030 --> 01:12:20,520
guy from the Vatican. He's like
the Pope's PR guy

1242
01:12:20,550 --> 01:12:23,280
rings a bell, but I don't think
it was on the show. I mean,

1243
01:12:23,310 --> 01:12:24,630
please tell me

1244
01:12:24,660 --> 01:12:28,350
so anyway, he says he invited me
to go visit the Vatican when I

1245
01:12:28,350 --> 01:12:34,530
get a chance. And he'll take me
into the bowels of the Vatican

1246
01:12:34,530 --> 01:12:37,380
art collection and the Arctic
collection of all this crazy

1247
01:12:37,380 --> 01:12:39,810
stuff that they put down there.
You know, the stuff about the

1248
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:44,430
the Illuminati and all those
secrets. So he says he says

1249
01:12:44,460 --> 01:12:46,680
don't get not too many people
get down there by says it's

1250
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:50,790
really interesting. And he says
he was roaming around down there

1251
01:12:50,790 --> 01:12:54,900
recently. I just imagined the
place, you know, dripping. And

1252
01:12:54,900 --> 01:13:00,150
he says he found Marco Polos.
Divorce Decree. Excellent. I

1253
01:13:00,150 --> 01:13:04,140
guess it was an annulment.
Right? But fantastic. I thought

1254
01:13:04,140 --> 01:13:06,330
that'd be kind of a one
upsmanship thing to do. Oh,

1255
01:13:06,330 --> 01:13:11,160
yeah. I have to actually do
these things instead of just

1256
01:13:11,160 --> 01:13:12,180
sitting here at home.

1257
01:13:13,050 --> 01:13:17,610
Yeah, I know what you mean. I
dream a lot too. According to

1258
01:13:17,610 --> 01:13:23,160
the Swedish trade journal
doggone medicina. Nobel media

1259
01:13:23,220 --> 01:13:25,110
because we were talking about
this last week and I picked the

1260
01:13:25,110 --> 01:13:30,900
story of Nobel Webb. Some Nobel
affiliated corporations are

1261
01:13:30,900 --> 01:13:36,570
accused of taking many millions
of dollars from AstraZeneca. Who

1262
01:13:36,570 --> 01:13:41,160
of course hold the patents for
the HPV that's the cervical

1263
01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:47,400
cancer vaccine, Gardasil and
Cervarix, in Europe, you may

1264
01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:51,540
recall, we talked about the
difference in Nobel Prizes. a

1265
01:13:51,540 --> 01:13:54,540
Nobel Prize for Medicine was
given to the German scientist

1266
01:13:54,540 --> 01:13:58,500
Harold to warehouser for the
discovery of the so called virus

1267
01:13:58,500 --> 01:14:03,870
which is killing children, the
vaccine at least. And he got a

1268
01:14:03,870 --> 01:14:07,740
Nobel Prize. And so now there's
accusations that AstraZeneca who

1269
01:14:07,740 --> 01:14:15,330
of course, makes this, you know,
basically bought it. Oh, yeah.

1270
01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:22,050
That's good. That's good. People
should know the truth about

1271
01:14:22,050 --> 01:14:22,470
these.

1272
01:14:24,150 --> 01:14:26,190
Well, why?

1273
01:14:27,870 --> 01:14:33,600
Well, it's good to know. You're
right. Just let people sleep on

1274
01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:37,260
it. Yes. Then, you know, we
don't need that. You know, these

1275
01:14:37,260 --> 01:14:38,490
riots in the street?

1276
01:14:38,760 --> 01:14:42,180
Yes, we do food riots of food
riots when people are hungry

1277
01:14:42,180 --> 01:14:44,280
that we're going to need them.
Of course, of course we need

1278
01:14:44,280 --> 01:14:52,110
that so that they don't tear
down the deli. Yeah. Boy, I

1279
01:14:52,110 --> 01:14:54,090
would take some precaution.
Well, how many people live up

1280
01:14:54,090 --> 01:14:55,500
there in Port Angeles? Not a
lot.

1281
01:14:56,220 --> 01:15:00,210
I think about 20,000 Okay, you
could feed everyone maybe 15 You

1282
01:15:00,210 --> 01:15:03,780
could feed everyone. Yeah, well,
you know, they got the Border

1283
01:15:03,780 --> 01:15:06,600
Patrol. You know, this is this
Homeland Security USA they got

1284
01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:09,480
these guys called Border Patrol
now up there and because, you

1285
01:15:09,480 --> 01:15:12,990
know, they declared the border
to be 100 miles deep. Yeah,

1286
01:15:12,990 --> 01:15:13,290
that's the

1287
01:15:13,290 --> 01:15:15,390
Constitution free zone, as we
call it.

1288
01:15:15,989 --> 01:15:21,509
Right. And they're Korean and my
wife, she says that, you know,

1289
01:15:21,509 --> 01:15:24,839
because she has to drive to
another city every couple of

1290
01:15:24,839 --> 01:15:26,339
days. Just because these guys
are the you know, they're

1291
01:15:26,339 --> 01:15:29,579
pulling people over. Yeah.
illegal search and seizure.

1292
01:15:30,029 --> 01:15:34,139
Yeah, constant constantly. Yeah.
And making them open a trunk and

1293
01:15:34,139 --> 01:15:36,809
you know, whatever. And they do
get nothing gets a no,

1294
01:15:36,990 --> 01:15:40,650
there's, there's a guy who has a
website, you got to see it,

1295
01:15:40,710 --> 01:15:45,030
check. It's a checkpoint
usa.org. And he films every

1296
01:15:45,030 --> 01:15:49,080
single and it's great to see
because he knows the very simple

1297
01:15:49,080 --> 01:15:52,890
laws of of the country in the
Constitution. And so they stop

1298
01:15:52,890 --> 01:15:56,790
him. And he's filming the whole
thing. And he keeps saying, Am I

1299
01:15:56,790 --> 01:15:59,460
being detained? Of course, they
won't say yes or no is and they

1300
01:15:59,460 --> 01:16:02,310
say are you in? That's all
they're asking is? Are you an

1301
01:16:02,310 --> 01:16:04,920
American citizen? And he won't
answer the question, because of

1302
01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:07,740
course, he doesn't have to. And
he says, Am I being detained?

1303
01:16:07,890 --> 01:16:10,710
Answer the question, Am I being
detained? And it goes on, it

1304
01:16:10,710 --> 01:16:14,910
goes on for like 20 minutes, and
then pull over to secondary? Am

1305
01:16:14,910 --> 01:16:17,610
I being detained? And they won't
answer it. And so he just

1306
01:16:17,610 --> 01:16:20,790
doesn't do it. He just stands
there. And eventually they every

1307
01:16:20,790 --> 01:16:23,490
single video they wind up
letting them go because he just

1308
01:16:23,490 --> 01:16:25,440
knows his rights and just sit
there and said, I'm not gonna

1309
01:16:25,440 --> 01:16:31,380
take this shit from you. And I
think maybe we should do the

1310
01:16:31,380 --> 01:16:31,770
same.

1311
01:16:32,820 --> 01:16:35,760
She hasn't been pulled over yet.
Now she will. Is she American?

1312
01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:38,910
She American citizen? Yeah,
yeah. As you're gonna tell them

1313
01:16:38,910 --> 01:16:39,660
when they ask her.

1314
01:16:40,710 --> 01:16:43,140
She's gonna probably I don't
know what she's gonna tell him.

1315
01:16:43,140 --> 01:16:45,480
She could blow up. That that

1316
01:16:45,480 --> 01:16:49,410
would be not good. And, uh,
well, I didn't know your wife

1317
01:16:49,410 --> 01:16:50,340
was an IED.

1318
01:16:51,630 --> 01:16:57,060
She she will give them lip.

1319
01:16:58,410 --> 01:17:00,930
Obviously, that's the problem if
you try and if you try to do

1320
01:17:00,930 --> 01:17:04,110
that, it never works. Well,
maybe she won't. Alright, well,

1321
01:17:04,110 --> 01:17:06,570
what she should does she show
her those videos.

1322
01:17:07,050 --> 01:17:09,900
She drives a van. It's like they
don't pull people over. Of

1323
01:17:09,900 --> 01:17:10,260
course.

1324
01:17:10,440 --> 01:17:12,240
Are you kidding me? Because
they're expecting, you know,

1325
01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:15,060
like, 100 illegal immigrants to
be in the back.

1326
01:17:15,630 --> 01:17:18,360
We're talking about what is the
immigrants coming in from Canada

1327
01:17:18,360 --> 01:17:21,510
from? Are these illegal?
Canadians? Yes.

1328
01:17:21,900 --> 01:17:25,590
Dammit. Someone has to clean my
toilets. The Connected Canadians

1329
01:17:25,590 --> 01:17:26,100
do it.

1330
01:17:26,730 --> 01:17:29,910
Move these guys down to the
south. Some believable, there's

1331
01:17:29,910 --> 01:17:31,050
some males going on?

1332
01:17:31,410 --> 01:17:36,240
Oh, you think John, you think
that this is exactly. If you

1333
01:17:36,240 --> 01:17:39,300
look at all these, these
checkpoints, and you'll see it

1334
01:17:39,300 --> 01:17:41,850
on that guys, but I'm just
presuming the guy has his data.

1335
01:17:41,850 --> 01:17:45,510
Right? The it rings all around
the United States. It's 100

1336
01:17:45,510 --> 01:17:50,670
miles and it's called the
Constitution free zone. And the

1337
01:17:50,670 --> 01:17:55,500
entire outline of the 50 States
of America now has all these

1338
01:17:55,530 --> 01:17:59,370
checkpoints setup? And hell
yeah. Can't you see the net

1339
01:17:59,370 --> 01:18:01,440
closing in? It's pretty obvious
to me.

1340
01:18:02,460 --> 01:18:04,680
I think it should keep people
from leaving. Of course.

1341
01:18:04,860 --> 01:18:08,340
That's exactly what it is. And
it's to keep you away from the

1342
01:18:08,340 --> 01:18:14,460
border. And to keep you in fear.
And pretty soon we'll we'll have

1343
01:18:14,460 --> 01:18:16,470
the military at these
checkpoints. You know, that's

1344
01:18:16,470 --> 01:18:17,100
gonna happen.

1345
01:18:17,460 --> 01:18:18,870
Well, you know, they're already
you know, there's this

1346
01:18:18,870 --> 01:18:22,020
discussion about the military,
you know, helping out

1347
01:18:23,850 --> 01:18:26,970
it's called training. It's just
a training exercise. These guys

1348
01:18:26,970 --> 01:18:31,710
and gals were in Iraq, they're
hardened they're coming back and

1349
01:18:31,710 --> 01:18:36,060
now they need training what how
to be compassionate.

1350
01:18:39,270 --> 01:18:44,160
Apparently they use these guys
for a checkpoint. military guys

1351
01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:47,130
for a checkpoint down in Santa
Barbara or someplace down there

1352
01:18:47,130 --> 01:18:50,250
just as a kind of a, you know,
let the military pull some

1353
01:18:50,250 --> 01:18:51,570
drunks over. Yeah.

1354
01:18:51,630 --> 01:18:58,980
DUI. It's against the law,
right? Yes, it's illegal. We

1355
01:18:58,980 --> 01:19:01,830
also talked about this last
week, but I don't mind repeating

1356
01:19:01,830 --> 01:19:04,080
it. Because it's a huge deal. I

1357
01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:06,960
know I challenged you to give me
the information about the

1358
01:19:07,410 --> 01:19:11,010
Southern California I sent me a
link but I still haven't seen

1359
01:19:11,010 --> 01:19:12,990
this. I said I if I saw
personally,

1360
01:19:13,530 --> 01:19:16,140
I showed you a video that wasn't
good enough. It has to be you

1361
01:19:16,140 --> 01:19:19,950
have to actually well once you
get in your car, get off your

1362
01:19:19,950 --> 01:19:24,570
inner tube. Put your button your
car and go find one and tape it

1363
01:19:24,570 --> 01:19:27,690
because it's gonna happen.
You'll bump it if I find one

1364
01:19:27,690 --> 01:19:31,500
I'll tape it. I met a girl in
the coffee shop right around the

1365
01:19:31,500 --> 01:19:37,260
corner from the new house. For
us he's from San Francisco cute

1366
01:19:37,260 --> 01:19:41,580
girl and said this What are you
doing here says going to school

1367
01:19:41,580 --> 01:19:43,770
and then went to work as hard as
I can. I don't ever want to go

1368
01:19:43,770 --> 01:19:50,220
back. You bitters is gonna be
shit in America. I don't want to

1369
01:19:50,220 --> 01:19:52,470
be there anymore. That you think
it's gonna be an event any

1370
01:19:52,470 --> 01:19:55,560
better here, which have also
emerged I think it'd be worse

1371
01:19:55,560 --> 01:20:00,330
than I agree. And I think it
will be and and I'm just seeing

1372
01:20:00,360 --> 01:20:05,580
more and more people stop me on
the street, begging for money in

1373
01:20:05,580 --> 01:20:11,070
London, in San Francisco was
jaded and used to it. And I'm

1374
01:20:11,070 --> 01:20:15,480
always a good target people
always coming up to me. I guess

1375
01:20:15,480 --> 01:20:18,420
I don't look threatening enough.
They won't ask me for my

1376
01:20:18,420 --> 01:20:20,970
autograph, but they'll try and
bum a cigarette or a quarter off

1377
01:20:20,970 --> 01:20:25,080
for me any day. And I'm seeing
more of that in London. So yeah,

1378
01:20:25,110 --> 01:20:28,440
I like to I like every
especially guys on the freeway

1379
01:20:28,440 --> 01:20:31,170
exits, which are all over the
place. And you know, these guys

1380
01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:32,070
are at every exit

1381
01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:35,220
only in America, by the way, you
don't see that in in many other

1382
01:20:35,220 --> 01:20:35,850
countries.

1383
01:20:36,150 --> 01:20:38,340
Yeah, I know. It's weird, but
it's actually mostly in the bay

1384
01:20:38,340 --> 01:20:43,740
area you don't see in many other
cities. But the I always I try

1385
01:20:43,740 --> 01:20:46,800
to keep them do I haven't done
it much recently. I think only

1386
01:20:46,800 --> 01:20:52,620
have a few left. I tried to keep
a box of baseball caps in the

1387
01:20:52,620 --> 01:20:57,480
car that were taken from Tech TV
years ago. That's a big

1388
01:20:57,480 --> 01:20:58,350
thinkers.

1389
01:20:59,430 --> 01:21:01,500
And you hand that out to people
asking you for money.

1390
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:07,080
Yeah. Well, the most of them
need a hat. And so I give them a

1391
01:21:07,140 --> 01:21:09,870
big thinkers cap and I did
something, especially when the

1392
01:21:09,870 --> 01:21:10,500
show was still

1393
01:21:10,530 --> 01:21:14,070
being aired. Or, John, you're
such a humanitarian.

1394
01:21:14,340 --> 01:21:17,130
I always found it highly
amusing. And I think it was

1395
01:21:17,160 --> 01:21:22,050
right in many people's days. To
see a guy with a sign begging

1396
01:21:22,050 --> 01:21:26,790
for money with a tattoo that
says big thinker. That wasn't

1397
01:21:26,790 --> 01:21:27,540
cruel, was it?

1398
01:21:28,440 --> 01:21:32,580
It pretty much borders on
shooting kittens.

1399
01:21:32,970 --> 01:21:35,610
Now. The guy's got a nice hat.

1400
01:21:36,780 --> 01:21:40,710
The guy wants to eat. He's got a
nice hat. It's alright don't

1401
01:21:40,710 --> 01:21:44,100
worry about it. A bomb is gonna
save him. It's all good.

1402
01:21:46,860 --> 01:21:50,280
So anyway, ya know, I also if I
have food, I'll give them food.

1403
01:21:50,730 --> 01:21:52,950
Please don't carry a lot of
money with me. You know, just to

1404
01:21:52,950 --> 01:21:56,250
give away to people from my car.
How about the hat

1405
01:21:56,460 --> 01:21:59,340
about that bag? thoughtful about
that bag of quarters you're

1406
01:21:59,340 --> 01:22:00,870
always toting around to your car

1407
01:22:02,190 --> 01:22:05,580
those quarters because you did a
lot of people you know 15 minute

1408
01:22:05,580 --> 01:22:08,730
charges average just go let me
give you some advice anyone that

1409
01:22:08,730 --> 01:22:11,430
thinks you're going to be a tour
do not go to San Francisco to

1410
01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:16,050
the worst place in the world.
Yeah it's a quaint it's got a

1411
01:22:16,050 --> 01:22:18,870
cable cars you know it got some
workers

1412
01:22:19,050 --> 01:22:21,600
but still go to the look at

1413
01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:24,960
the cable car you know go up and
down the cable car and go look

1414
01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:27,510
at the Golden Gate Bridge and
drive around for a few minutes

1415
01:22:27,510 --> 01:22:31,260
go down to Worlds crookedest
street and you know take a trip

1416
01:22:31,260 --> 01:22:34,890
to Alcatraz and then get out
because it's a horrible place.

1417
01:22:35,730 --> 01:22:41,550
Bombs and homeless and criminals
everywhere. Yeah, everyone's on

1418
01:22:41,550 --> 01:22:44,790
the cell phone talking to
somebody bumping into each

1419
01:22:44,790 --> 01:22:50,100
other. It's very dangerous. And,
and the parking like a metered

1420
01:22:50,100 --> 01:22:54,000
parking metre is why I got his
bag the quarters it's five

1421
01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:56,400
minutes for a quarter. Right?

1422
01:22:56,910 --> 01:22:59,100
Five I thought it was 15 It's
five

1423
01:22:59,129 --> 01:23:07,019
five download into quarters up
you got your last your first

1424
01:23:07,019 --> 01:23:09,839
five minutes you got to put
another quarter in. It's

1425
01:23:09,989 --> 01:23:11,159
unbelievable.

1426
01:23:11,190 --> 01:23:14,310
No wonder out calls for hookers
are so expensive they got to pay

1427
01:23:14,310 --> 01:23:15,360
for all that parking.

1428
01:23:17,730 --> 01:23:20,340
Anyway it's like you know it's a
profit centre those parking

1429
01:23:20,340 --> 01:23:22,320
metres are supposed to be
institute like they were they

1430
01:23:22,320 --> 01:23:25,290
haven't been friends with the
blue disc and you put the disc

1431
01:23:25,290 --> 01:23:30,120
up there. The parking was always
supposed to be monitored to get

1432
01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:34,080
keep it moving. You wanted to
have a timer that was said You

1433
01:23:34,080 --> 01:23:36,300
okay, you've been here that
long. So he was there all

1434
01:23:36,300 --> 01:23:39,630
panties. They weren't supposed
to be profit centres. You know,

1435
01:23:39,660 --> 01:23:42,840
did you know just make money off
of you. The city is supposed to

1436
01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,360
encourage people to be there and
have a good time and do whatever

1437
01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:49,530
they want. But this city of San
Francisco discourages people

1438
01:23:49,620 --> 01:23:53,100
from coming to it. That's
certainly where the vehicle. So

1439
01:23:53,100 --> 01:23:56,610
I would say I would say don't go
to San Francisco ever.

1440
01:23:57,420 --> 01:23:59,700
What a great endorsement. You
could be in one of those.

1441
01:24:00,060 --> 01:24:03,420
Schwarzenegger come to
California ads, you and Maria

1442
01:24:03,540 --> 01:24:05,160
and Arnold will be great.

1443
01:24:05,190 --> 01:24:08,760
California itself may be a
questionable place to visit

1444
01:24:08,790 --> 01:24:13,980
well $46 billion in the hole and
looks like it's going belly up.

1445
01:24:13,980 --> 01:24:16,950
I don't know how that works.
When when when a state actually

1446
01:24:16,950 --> 01:24:18,900
just goes bankrupt. What
happened?

1447
01:24:19,500 --> 01:24:22,110
They don't pay anybody anything
that they owe them. They're

1448
01:24:22,110 --> 01:24:22,770
bankrupt.

1449
01:24:22,830 --> 01:24:26,820
Right. So then does that mean
the cops stopped functioning?

1450
01:24:26,820 --> 01:24:27,930
They just stopped working?

1451
01:24:27,959 --> 01:24:30,959
And probably well, you know,
they hope that the volunteer,

1452
01:24:31,469 --> 01:24:34,019
really it will really come down
to that you won't get some kind

1453
01:24:34,019 --> 01:24:37,409
of I mean, can't it can't
California become a bank holding

1454
01:24:37,409 --> 01:24:39,629
company and qualify for some
tarp?

1455
01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:40,800
Maybe.

1456
01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:45,000
In fact, if I will, I know if I
were Schwarzenegger, I'd be

1457
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:48,030
trying that. That we're not
going to we're going to be a

1458
01:24:48,030 --> 01:24:52,920
bank holding company, our state
of California and we're gonna

1459
01:24:53,010 --> 01:24:54,270
we're gonna need some of that
money.

1460
01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:57,810
I don't know what they're gonna
do. And all I know is that the

1461
01:24:57,810 --> 01:25:00,120
state did New York State is also
in trouble in the city of New

1462
01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:01,950
York is close to being bankrupt.

1463
01:25:02,280 --> 01:25:05,970
Well, the city of New York took
all the pension money that's

1464
01:25:05,970 --> 01:25:08,520
that's how they're solving it is
by literally take them they

1465
01:25:08,520 --> 01:25:10,770
admitted just they were taking
the pension money.

1466
01:25:11,400 --> 01:25:13,620
Yeah, that's some solution,
isn't it?

1467
01:25:14,460 --> 01:25:16,560
You come over here, man, you're
not gonna want to go back.

1468
01:25:16,590 --> 01:25:18,900
You're gonna want to stay
because this is the epicentre

1469
01:25:20,670 --> 01:25:21,300
right here

1470
01:25:22,650 --> 01:25:23,550
but your house

1471
01:25:24,930 --> 01:25:28,740
now this country, it's still the
British Empire. That's what's

1472
01:25:28,740 --> 01:25:31,560
going on. So I keep my enemies
close.

1473
01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:35,130
Yeah, well, there's some truth
to that and at least

1474
01:25:35,730 --> 01:25:38,040
certainly in the in the
financial world there is You

1475
01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:41,130
bet. Kidding. Oh, you know,

1476
01:25:41,130 --> 01:25:45,780
the Brits have always been the,
you know, the big shots in every

1477
01:25:45,780 --> 01:25:49,350
you know, they really screwed up
on this last one have to say,

1478
01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:52,350
well, it got out of control and
got way too big and everybody

1479
01:25:52,350 --> 01:25:56,160
was way too greedy. But I'm
still convinced that this the

1480
01:25:56,160 --> 01:25:59,610
the bubble bursting is is
intended to happen. Yeah, the

1481
01:25:59,610 --> 01:26:04,170
way I see it in very simple
terms. Blow it up, then steal

1482
01:26:04,170 --> 01:26:07,590
the money, trillions of dollars
and pounds and euros and

1483
01:26:07,590 --> 01:26:10,230
whatever. I went straight to the
bankers, they all paid

1484
01:26:10,230 --> 01:26:12,990
themselves, they all got their
bonuses. And then so we know the

1485
01:26:12,990 --> 01:26:17,460
first 100 and 20 billion went
straight into bonuses. Take that

1486
01:26:17,460 --> 01:26:21,510
money, you know, and then ride
the wave of the devaluation and

1487
01:26:21,660 --> 01:26:24,990
you know, spread it out. Maybe
pounds, Euros, Yen, whatever,

1488
01:26:24,990 --> 01:26:27,810
make sure you got something
everywhere, and then go and then

1489
01:26:27,810 --> 01:26:28,380
leave.

1490
01:26:29,250 --> 01:26:33,120
And then you go on a buying
spree. Well, next now next to

1491
01:26:33,120 --> 01:26:35,490
your next you devalue. I mean,
the whole deflation

1492
01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:38,280
the banks. Exactly. Then they
buy up all of the assets of

1493
01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:41,160
going all the companies cheap.
Buy all the land cheap. Buy all

1494
01:26:41,160 --> 01:26:45,480
the houses cheap. Absolutely.
Yeah. So first, I needed to get

1495
01:26:45,480 --> 01:26:48,360
the money that just took place.
Here this, have you not received

1496
01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:51,600
this this thing circulating the
internet? I've seen two versions

1497
01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:54,630
of it. One is about acorns. The
other is about monkeys.

1498
01:26:55,410 --> 01:26:57,660
Now I've seen neither one I
don't get spam.

1499
01:26:58,050 --> 01:27:02,250
It's not spam. My friends send
it to me. And let me just read

1500
01:27:02,250 --> 01:27:11,460
it to you because it's if I can
find it. It's It's essentially a

1501
01:27:11,460 --> 01:27:15,660
simple way to understand what
happened with the bailout. And,

1502
01:27:17,400 --> 01:27:20,640
man, see, this is where we need
like a commercial break or

1503
01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:27,480
something so I can go and find
it. Or you could just say

1504
01:27:27,480 --> 01:27:27,780
something?

1505
01:27:28,650 --> 01:27:32,880
Well, in August, I was thinking
that I had on the blog, a very

1506
01:27:32,880 --> 01:27:39,900
funny cartoon from Calvin and
Hobbes is apparently 15 years

1507
01:27:39,900 --> 01:27:43,080
old, which more or less
described the situation I

1508
01:27:43,080 --> 01:27:47,940
thought in a cartoon form better
than anything I've run into

1509
01:27:48,270 --> 01:27:52,020
elsewhere. And can we share this
with the listeners?

1510
01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:56,370
Well, it's hard to because you
can't see the cartoon. But let

1511
01:27:56,370 --> 01:27:59,580
me let me I'll tell you what,
let me if the blogs running,

1512
01:27:59,580 --> 01:28:01,470
which of course you know, we've
had nothing but trouble since we

1513
01:28:01,470 --> 01:28:03,420
upgraded to 2.7. Turns out

1514
01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:07,860
Oh, really? What kind of trouble
but this is a WordPress,

1515
01:28:08,100 --> 01:28:10,980
which somebody on Twitter said
You know, I've had nothing but

1516
01:28:10,980 --> 01:28:13,920
trouble since I went to 2.7 and
this is what you did? Is it

1517
01:28:13,920 --> 01:28:17,190
blogs crashing is like a mess. I
mean, right now it's up I'm glad

1518
01:28:17,190 --> 01:28:22,260
for that was some really screwy
stuff on here. I'll find a

1519
01:28:22,290 --> 01:28:27,690
cartoon just within a couple of
days. You get it? It's a title.

1520
01:28:27,690 --> 01:28:30,090
15 year old cartoon prediction
of your starts off with the with

1521
01:28:30,120 --> 01:28:35,520
Calvin and this little girl
whose name I can't remember. She

1522
01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:39,870
goes up to him and he's got a
lemonade stand. And she says 15

1523
01:28:39,870 --> 01:28:43,860
bucks a glass, which it says and
he says That's right. You want

1524
01:28:43,860 --> 01:28:47,280
some? And she says how do you
justify charging $15? He says

1525
01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:49,740
supply and demand. She turns
around, there's nobody there.

1526
01:28:49,740 --> 01:28:52,560
She says where's the demand? I
don't see any demand. He says

1527
01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:56,580
there's lots of demand. Yeah,
sure. As the sole stockholder in

1528
01:28:56,580 --> 01:28:59,220
this enterprise, I demand
monstrous profits on my

1529
01:28:59,220 --> 01:29:04,020
investment. As President and CEO
of the company, I demand an

1530
01:29:04,020 --> 01:29:09,660
exorbitant annual salary. And as
my own employee, I demand a high

1531
01:29:09,660 --> 01:29:12,660
hourly wage and all sorts of
company benefits and there's

1532
01:29:12,660 --> 01:29:17,670
overhead and actual production
costs. She pointed. Laminated

1533
01:29:17,670 --> 01:29:20,160
says but it looks like you just
threw a lemon in some sludge

1534
01:29:20,160 --> 01:29:24,540
water. Well, I have to cut
expenses somewhere if I want to

1535
01:29:24,540 --> 01:29:28,740
stay competitive. Then she says
What if I got sick from that?

1536
01:29:28,830 --> 01:29:33,090
And he says Caveat emptor is the
motto We stand behind. I'd have

1537
01:29:33,090 --> 01:29:35,520
to charge more if we followed
health and environmental

1538
01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:38,400
regulations. She walks out
saying you're out of your mind.

1539
01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:41,490
I'm going home to drink
something else. And he says,

1540
01:29:41,520 --> 01:29:45,090
sure put me out of a job. It's
your anti business types who

1541
01:29:45,090 --> 01:29:49,320
ruin the economy. sulks goes
over to his mom and says I need

1542
01:29:49,320 --> 01:29:55,500
to be subsidised. Ah, that's a
good one. It is actually quite

1543
01:29:55,500 --> 01:29:55,950
funny.

1544
01:29:59,220 --> 01:30:01,500
Let me just say So far he is
fucking the FAA.

1545
01:30:01,860 --> 01:30:04,410
So I guess yeah, all that good
went through all that rigmarole

1546
01:30:04,410 --> 01:30:06,450
you still can't find it. That's
okay. Well, we can do it next

1547
01:30:06,450 --> 01:30:06,810
week.

1548
01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:12,330
Hold on. Yeah. The problem is,
please, oh, don't crash please

1549
01:30:12,330 --> 01:30:20,850
don't crash. Safari. Oh, man.
Safari crashed. Yeah. And, and

1550
01:30:20,850 --> 01:30:25,530
it's like hosing out the entire
computer. I'm trying to quit it.

1551
01:30:25,560 --> 01:30:26,430
Oh, please.

1552
01:30:27,510 --> 01:30:30,360
Safaris, taking down the show.
Ah,

1553
01:30:30,990 --> 01:30:34,110
okay. I was able to quit it. Oh,
thank you, Steve Jobs. You're

1554
01:30:34,110 --> 01:30:38,880
fantastic. Okay, so the story is
very simple. There was a village

1555
01:30:38,910 --> 01:30:41,820
and one day a guy came to the
I'm doing this from memory. It's

1556
01:30:41,820 --> 01:30:44,760
pretty simple. And one day a guy
came to the village and said,

1557
01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:48,690
I'll give you $20 For every
monkey you can deliver to me. So

1558
01:30:48,690 --> 01:30:51,180
the townspeople go out and they
start getting some monkeys. They

1559
01:30:51,180 --> 01:30:54,510
bring him back, and he pays me
20 bucks bucks for each monkey.

1560
01:30:55,110 --> 01:30:57,720
And then they comes back the
next day says, hey, you know

1561
01:30:57,720 --> 01:31:01,410
what? Monkeys are pretty hot.
Now. I'll give you 25 bucks for

1562
01:31:01,410 --> 01:31:05,220
every monkey. So townspeople go
out, it's a little bit harder,

1563
01:31:05,220 --> 01:31:07,080
you know, because they got a
shitload of monkeys for 20

1564
01:31:07,080 --> 01:31:10,920
bucks. But they find some they
bring them back and guys like

1565
01:31:10,920 --> 01:31:14,310
pays 25 bucks per monkey. Next
day comes back he says, I'm

1566
01:31:14,310 --> 01:31:17,190
going to give you 50 bucks for
the monkeys are so hot right now

1567
01:31:17,190 --> 01:31:19,890
give you 50 bucks for every
monkey you can deliver to me.

1568
01:31:20,280 --> 01:31:23,970
And the townspeople like as
assistant came with him because

1569
01:31:23,970 --> 01:31:27,090
he had to leave and go back to
the city. So his assistant

1570
01:31:27,090 --> 01:31:29,880
stayed there. And the
townspeople, you know, they

1571
01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:33,090
tried but they couldn't find any
monkeys. So the the assistant

1572
01:31:33,090 --> 01:31:36,420
says, hey, look, listen, here's
what I'll do. I got like, 100

1573
01:31:36,420 --> 01:31:39,360
monkeys, I'll sell them to you
guys for 35 And then when he

1574
01:31:39,360 --> 01:31:43,770
comes back, you sell it to him
for 50 and of course he sells a

1575
01:31:43,800 --> 01:31:47,340
$35 monkeys to the townspeople
and neither of the guys come

1576
01:31:47,340 --> 01:31:50,370
back. And that is exactly what
the bailout is all about.

1577
01:31:54,540 --> 01:31:55,590
That's funny. Yeah.

1578
01:31:55,620 --> 01:31:57,960
But I liked that because you
know, people can understand a

1579
01:31:57,960 --> 01:31:59,700
story like that. That's exactly
what's

1580
01:31:59,880 --> 01:32:01,320
a con Yes. Thank

1581
01:32:01,320 --> 01:32:05,850
you. Con indeed. And not the
kind of con that we like in the

1582
01:32:05,850 --> 01:32:06,840
south of France.

1583
01:32:10,440 --> 01:32:14,880
All right, so anything else but
do How was your Christmas by the

1584
01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:16,020
way? You never we never talked
about it?

1585
01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:21,420
It was treeless. Oh, and we had
no tree we're in the middle of

1586
01:32:21,420 --> 01:32:24,630
boxes. We knew this would

1587
01:32:24,630 --> 01:32:26,730
happen. You guys have Boxing
Day.

1588
01:32:27,690 --> 01:32:31,020
Yeah, I'm not quite sure what
Boxing Day actually is other

1589
01:32:31,020 --> 01:32:35,190
than a reason for 10,000 Idiots
to line up at Selfridges and

1590
01:32:35,190 --> 01:32:39,600
stormed down the doors at 7am
which is what happened.

1591
01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:42,780
But says means you know when I
first saw Boxing Day which was

1592
01:32:42,780 --> 01:32:45,390
in Canada was their biggest
that's the gift exchange day,

1593
01:32:45,390 --> 01:32:47,910
isn't it? Yeah, but I never knew
that. I thought it was like some

1594
01:32:47,910 --> 01:32:51,780
day that was the Boxer Rebellion
or there was some match going to

1595
01:32:51,780 --> 01:32:55,350
be a boxing match. I had no idea
what it meant. And then I feel

1596
01:32:55,350 --> 01:32:59,310
somebody told me I was an idiot
to box your old gifts up and

1597
01:32:59,310 --> 01:33:00,180
take them back.

1598
01:33:00,540 --> 01:33:08,700
Oh, really? Well, they are all
the stores are going out of

1599
01:33:08,700 --> 01:33:13,500
business and retailers in battle
at dawn is the headline in the

1600
01:33:13,500 --> 01:33:17,190
fenit Financial Times and
literally 10,000 people rushing

1601
01:33:17,190 --> 01:33:19,230
in to get all these deals before
all these companies go out of

1602
01:33:19,230 --> 01:33:24,390
business. They expect 15 retail
chains to go in the next six

1603
01:33:24,390 --> 01:33:28,140
months. Really? Yeah. No, it's
really bad. And you know,

1604
01:33:28,170 --> 01:33:30,390
Woolworths went out of business.
I told you that they're

1605
01:33:30,390 --> 01:33:34,110
literally selling the lockers,
the employee lockers now, at

1606
01:33:34,110 --> 01:33:34,680
some of these low

1607
01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:38,340
end. Yeah, true. What I don't
know. People will buy it. How

1608
01:33:38,340 --> 01:33:40,710
many stores have employee
lockers that

1609
01:33:41,250 --> 01:33:44,250
Woolworths has been around for a
long time? Yeah, they're old

1610
01:33:44,250 --> 01:33:50,430
fashioned old school. 27,000
employees out as of January

1611
01:33:50,430 --> 01:33:57,300
fifth. But I'm gonna get me a
damn cheap set of TVs, that's

1612
01:33:57,300 --> 01:33:57,870
for sure.

1613
01:33:59,190 --> 01:34:00,030
Oh, yeah, there should be

1614
01:34:00,030 --> 01:34:02,880
some good deals or revisions.
Oh, fantastic deals.

1615
01:34:03,120 --> 01:34:05,430
What do you what's a good deal
there because we have right here

1616
01:34:05,430 --> 01:34:12,690
in the Costco. We have the 42
inch plasma is going for 679 or

1617
01:34:12,690 --> 01:34:16,260
so. And I thought that was a
pretty good price. But now I'm

1618
01:34:16,260 --> 01:34:19,500
starting to see 50 inches going
for like 700

1619
01:34:19,530 --> 01:34:26,970
Yeah, I saw a 50 inch plasma and
it was marked at 425 pounds

1620
01:34:27,450 --> 01:34:29,970
below that's good. So that's
probably just a little bit under

1621
01:34:29,970 --> 01:34:34,950
that price. Not much but yeah,
I've been doing 70% off. It's

1622
01:34:34,950 --> 01:34:39,390
been amazing and we buy a bed it
was a bit a $2,000 bed 700

1623
01:34:39,390 --> 01:34:44,250
pounds. It's a you know there's
done

1624
01:34:44,250 --> 01:34:45,750
now's the time to spend more
money.

1625
01:34:45,780 --> 01:34:49,800
Yeah, I want to help the
economy. Pump some money in.

1626
01:34:53,040 --> 01:34:55,830
Even wind bargains all over the
place too, which is kind of

1627
01:34:55,830 --> 01:34:59,460
problematic. Why is that
problematic? Boy, I've got so

1628
01:34:59,460 --> 01:35:02,400
much wind micellar now because
of all these deals and no you

1629
01:35:02,400 --> 01:35:04,350
don't want you can't you don't
have any place to store

1630
01:35:04,350 --> 01:35:07,350
anything. I got plenty of places
I got a whole basement but I

1631
01:35:07,350 --> 01:35:10,710
still like I don't you know, I
got a, you know, just too much.

1632
01:35:10,770 --> 01:35:14,340
I mean, I have I know how I want
my drinking process is and as I

1633
01:35:14,340 --> 01:35:19,740
drink a lot of mostly samples to
have to decide what to buy, and

1634
01:35:19,740 --> 01:35:23,430
I can you know, I can't keep
buying stuff that I just got too

1635
01:35:23,430 --> 01:35:27,000
much I grew up, you know, you
can't drink fast. There's some

1636
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:29,280
people that have these wine
cellars with like 10,000

1637
01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:31,200
bottles, and I'm like, What are
you going to do with this stuff?

1638
01:35:31,620 --> 01:35:35,160
You can't get through it. You
can't you know, too much of

1639
01:35:35,160 --> 01:35:39,150
it'll go bad. You know, because
wine doesn't necessarily age and

1640
01:35:39,150 --> 01:35:42,720
let's assume some wines do but
not all of them. And you know,

1641
01:35:42,720 --> 01:35:45,420
what are you doing with the
cellar this size? Now it's

1642
01:35:45,420 --> 01:35:45,870
really cute.

1643
01:35:45,900 --> 01:35:49,650
Do you have a drinking setup in
your in your cellar? So you can

1644
01:35:49,650 --> 01:35:52,290
actually crack a bottle there
and sit down and drink

1645
01:35:52,740 --> 01:35:55,560
in my cellar up in Port Angeles?
I do.

1646
01:35:55,680 --> 01:35:59,400
Oh, that's hot. And it's so
humidified and it's got all the

1647
01:35:59,400 --> 01:36:00,240
coffee right

1648
01:36:00,240 --> 01:36:04,260
drink believe me. Oh, so yeah.
Seller up there. I mean, this

1649
01:36:04,260 --> 01:36:07,260
one here's a net natural seller
the one up there is cold

1650
01:36:07,260 --> 01:36:10,050
actually so I think it's
probably too cold

1651
01:36:10,080 --> 01:36:13,500
so you don't have a constant
temperature shouldn't be kept in

1652
01:36:13,500 --> 01:36:13,770
stone.

1653
01:36:13,800 --> 01:36:16,380
It is a constant temperature.
It's constantly holy cool. I

1654
01:36:16,380 --> 01:36:19,350
know you know, you know what I'm
asking obviously is like

1655
01:36:19,830 --> 01:36:22,980
we have all that gear I have a
natural set. I don't need it.

1656
01:36:24,150 --> 01:36:26,520
You know if I was living in
Arizona Yeah, I'd probably have

1657
01:36:26,520 --> 01:36:27,210
something like that.

1658
01:36:28,440 --> 01:36:34,950
Your own natural you slay me

1659
01:36:36,090 --> 01:36:38,310
who I would like to put in a
show. You know I think the

1660
01:36:38,310 --> 01:36:41,760
coolest thing to do. You know
they think about because we have

1661
01:36:41,760 --> 01:36:45,660
a funny incline in our property
is to get a bulldozer and

1662
01:36:45,660 --> 01:36:49,740
bulldoze up a yeah, go get like
a Quonset hut and uncover it and

1663
01:36:49,890 --> 01:36:53,400
make a che which is the which is
a wine cellar that's above

1664
01:36:53,400 --> 01:36:58,680
ground. That's very common. And
a buddy but it really dirt cool

1665
01:36:58,680 --> 01:37:01,860
because it's like above ground.
And it's like, because you don't

1666
01:37:01,890 --> 01:37:04,830
you really cellars in the
Pacific Northwest where we are

1667
01:37:05,130 --> 01:37:08,340
is not just a sandy soil and
it's just going to have a lot of

1668
01:37:08,340 --> 01:37:12,510
seepage. I mean, you guys, it's
just not a good idea. And I

1669
01:37:12,510 --> 01:37:14,910
mean, you had to have big thick
cement walls, it's not worth

1670
01:37:14,910 --> 01:37:19,170
doing. But as Shea is really a
good concept and you just walk

1671
01:37:19,170 --> 01:37:21,720
in, you can set it up with a you
know, a little tasting bar in

1672
01:37:21,720 --> 01:37:24,510
there and you'd have all your
stuff stacked up. It kind of

1673
01:37:24,510 --> 01:37:26,190
cool. It'll never happen.

1674
01:37:26,490 --> 01:37:28,740
I was just gonna say once you
crank up the digger I'll be

1675
01:37:28,740 --> 01:37:29,460
right over

1676
01:37:30,450 --> 01:37:33,780
on my way. Just need to rent a
you know a bulldozer

1677
01:37:33,840 --> 01:37:38,280
Alright, interesting. I just got
an email from someone. Regular

1678
01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:42,660
dropper no agendist here. I'm
guessing you move to bleep bleep

1679
01:37:42,690 --> 01:37:44,910
by now and thought you might
want to know what the night

1680
01:37:44,910 --> 01:37:50,460
life's like their guy knows
exactly where I'm moving. How

1681
01:37:50,460 --> 01:37:51,420
does he know that?

1682
01:37:53,160 --> 01:37:54,900
I think he must have mentioned
Oh no,

1683
01:37:54,930 --> 01:37:59,310
I've never mentioned I've said
SW for but he actually has the

1684
01:37:59,310 --> 01:38:00,000
street.

1685
01:38:00,270 --> 01:38:03,780
Oh, he's probably within my in
my shakes. Yeah. And he's

1686
01:38:03,810 --> 01:38:07,080
he's given me some some some
tips on where to go get

1687
01:38:07,080 --> 01:38:11,610
hammered. I did check though. I
did a walk around today. Not a

1688
01:38:11,610 --> 01:38:16,770
single at least not that I can
see not a single CCTV camera in

1689
01:38:16,770 --> 01:38:20,910
the square. Which Yeah, it's
very nice to know you're not

1690
01:38:20,910 --> 01:38:22,890
being spied upon by the
government.

1691
01:38:23,520 --> 01:38:25,500
Yeah. So yeah, that will last

1692
01:38:26,400 --> 01:38:28,260
for a while at least I hope
Amen.

1693
01:38:30,420 --> 01:38:33,210
Yeah. All right. So you'd be
there a hidden they may be

1694
01:38:33,210 --> 01:38:36,690
hidden. No, no, no, no, I don't
think that they don't bother.

1695
01:38:36,720 --> 01:38:37,050
Now. They

1696
01:38:37,050 --> 01:38:40,950
don't do that yet. So anyway, so
Christmas was in between boxes.

1697
01:38:41,280 --> 01:38:44,190
It was it were very low key
because we always, you know, and

1698
01:38:44,220 --> 01:38:46,410
this has been this way since
Christina was a baby and I was

1699
01:38:46,410 --> 01:38:49,050
like, every day is Christmas
with us. So it's not, you know,

1700
01:38:49,470 --> 01:38:52,140
Patricia and I are Patricia
mainly will cook a nice meal and

1701
01:38:52,140 --> 01:38:55,320
we'll sit down and we have a
good time and we'll we'll watch

1702
01:38:55,350 --> 01:39:00,240
a movie together. But we
generally, you know, there's

1703
01:39:00,270 --> 01:39:04,860
there's always a gift exchange.
And it's more about the annual I

1704
01:39:04,860 --> 01:39:09,330
always ask for books. So my
daughter gave me the book

1705
01:39:09,330 --> 01:39:15,900
spliffs, two, which is the
second volume of the history of

1706
01:39:15,990 --> 01:39:20,220
marijuana and hemp. Which is
such a nice present is the gift

1707
01:39:20,220 --> 01:39:21,150
that keeps on giving.

1708
01:39:22,440 --> 01:39:24,330
as it may, is it printed on
hemp?

1709
01:39:24,900 --> 01:39:27,720
I don't think so. That actually
would have been let me just

1710
01:39:27,720 --> 01:39:30,390
check that would have been
smart. I guess.

1711
01:39:31,049 --> 01:39:34,259
I'd been cool. Probably stink up
the place though.

1712
01:39:37,260 --> 01:39:39,120
See, Tim Pilcher wrote this by

1713
01:39:39,120 --> 01:39:41,430
the way now somebody's gonna
write in Yeah, doesn't smell I

1714
01:39:41,430 --> 01:39:43,440
use him wearing clothes.

1715
01:39:43,500 --> 01:39:46,650
Well, there is a first of its
kind of cool because it has a

1716
01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:50,220
like a burn hole in the cover.
Which is intentional, but it is

1717
01:39:50,220 --> 01:39:55,350
an actual hole. Which anyone who
is a spliff Meister will know

1718
01:39:55,350 --> 01:40:00,420
but yeah, it does go in quite a
lot of detail. In fact, it It

1719
01:40:00,420 --> 01:40:03,870
has some interesting facts in
here that in the mid to late

1720
01:40:03,900 --> 01:40:10,260
1800s farmers in the United
States were obligated by law to

1721
01:40:10,260 --> 01:40:15,510
grow hemp. And they were you
know, they were paid for it but

1722
01:40:15,570 --> 01:40:18,600
they couldn't just grow anything
else they had to use a portion

1723
01:40:18,600 --> 01:40:21,450
of their farmland for the growth
of hemp because it was very

1724
01:40:21,450 --> 01:40:23,700
important at the time was a
great industrial

1725
01:40:25,980 --> 01:40:29,040
thing. Yeah. used in other
things.

1726
01:40:29,070 --> 01:40:31,950
Well, not just rope and well
blue jeans. The original blue

1727
01:40:31,950 --> 01:40:34,620
jeans, of course, were were made
of hemp, Levi Strauss. Is that

1728
01:40:34,620 --> 01:40:38,100
right? Yes. That you didn't
know. Yeah. The original, the

1729
01:40:38,100 --> 01:40:41,940
original blue jeans from the
Levi Strauss company. I just

1730
01:40:41,940 --> 01:40:48,150
lost my microphone. There we go.
Which is, I think still based in

1731
01:40:48,150 --> 01:40:52,200
San Francisco. Yeah. Yeah, the
original blue jeans were made

1732
01:40:52,200 --> 01:40:55,740
out of hemp. Henry Ford, we
talked about that. Last week,

1733
01:40:55,740 --> 01:41:00,900
Henry Ford made a a hemp car.
Which is a YouTube video of

1734
01:41:00,900 --> 01:41:03,840
people actually banging in the
car with a crowbar? Not Yeah,

1735
01:41:03,840 --> 01:41:07,170
we mentioned that last week. And
I get we're even now. Yeah.

1736
01:41:07,650 --> 01:41:11,070
But you know, this. I'm just
saying there's a mention of it.

1737
01:41:11,070 --> 01:41:16,110
And what's cool is they have the
top 50 stoners all the people

1738
01:41:16,110 --> 01:41:20,250
who were well known smokers and
as

1739
01:41:21,780 --> 01:41:24,900
who are the top 50 stoners. I
mean, give me a couple of the

1740
01:41:24,900 --> 01:41:26,550
top five. Well,

1741
01:41:26,580 --> 01:41:30,660
I'll give you a couple. How
about Bing Crosby?

1742
01:41:32,700 --> 01:41:34,290
Really? Well,

1743
01:41:34,320 --> 01:41:37,200
according to the book, the king
of crude maintains his mellow

1744
01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:42,990
demeanour, thanks to a few talks
on the herbs. And, you know, I

1745
01:41:42,990 --> 01:41:45,240
believe that, you know,
musicians I mean, like you'd

1746
01:41:45,240 --> 01:41:48,630
have to assume that most people
in the music business are you

1747
01:41:48,630 --> 01:41:48,810
know,

1748
01:41:48,840 --> 01:41:51,570
well so I'll give you a couple
more Willie Nelson. Of course we

1749
01:41:51,570 --> 01:41:55,140
know about really, Whitney
Houston but she smoked a lot

1750
01:41:55,140 --> 01:41:58,020
more than marijuana the obvious,
you know, Mick Jagger, Paul

1751
01:41:58,020 --> 01:42:01,770
McCartney, Louis Armstrong, of
course all the jazz guys, they

1752
01:42:01,800 --> 01:42:06,780
they sang about it in their
songs. Then many different

1753
01:42:06,780 --> 01:42:10,350
titles, like if any of you who
sing about them are more

1754
01:42:10,350 --> 01:42:17,670
surprised names like Crosby.
Okay. Queen Victoria,

1755
01:42:18,810 --> 01:42:20,010
Queen Victoria,

1756
01:42:20,549 --> 01:42:25,109
not an actual stoner as such Old
Vic Euston older used to the

1757
01:42:25,109 --> 01:42:29,159
neck back bottles of cannabis
tincture to help her ease her

1758
01:42:29,159 --> 01:42:34,619
savage period pains nicely put
her physician Sergej Russell

1759
01:42:34,619 --> 01:42:38,459
Reynolds reported in the first
issue of the Lancet in 1890,

1760
01:42:38,669 --> 01:42:41,519
that he had been prescribing
cannabis for 30 years, and he

1761
01:42:41,519 --> 01:42:44,429
considered it quote one of the
most valuable medicines we

1762
01:42:44,429 --> 01:42:48,359
possess. This typical use of
marijuana for medicinal purposes

1763
01:42:48,359 --> 01:42:53,309
surely had her royal high,
royalty high and most amused

1764
01:42:53,309 --> 01:42:55,979
Okay, that's cool. William
Sherrill

1765
01:42:55,980 --> 01:42:58,590
Highness is a funnier gag. Well,

1766
01:42:58,800 --> 01:43:02,760
the royalty high is the way he
wrote I agree. You should have

1767
01:43:02,760 --> 01:43:07,680
edited this book. William
Shakespeare, Newt Gingrich.

1768
01:43:08,970 --> 01:43:17,820
Well, Norman Mailer, no surprise
Allen Ginsberg. Mean Hunter

1769
01:43:17,820 --> 01:43:21,300
Thompson Yeah, right. Jay and
Silent Bob. Now there's a

1770
01:43:21,300 --> 01:43:28,260
shocker. Larry Hagman, Morgan
Freeman. Robert Mitchum, Robert

1771
01:43:28,260 --> 01:43:32,220
Altman, Jack Nicholson, Jane and
Peter Fonda Cary Grant and Diane

1772
01:43:32,220 --> 01:43:33,600
cannon. Whoa.

1773
01:43:34,560 --> 01:43:37,650
Cary Grant was also a huge LS

1774
01:43:37,710 --> 01:43:40,800
acid, right? Yeah. Didn't you
used to do acid with Nicholson?

1775
01:43:41,370 --> 01:43:44,460
I don't know. Yeah, I wasn't I
wasn't there as before my time.

1776
01:43:44,850 --> 01:43:47,310
No, it wasn't before your time.
You just weren't there.

1777
01:43:47,640 --> 01:43:52,740
Carrie Fisher was on the
shootout show with Peter Guber,

1778
01:43:52,740 --> 01:43:56,640
and Peter bark and she who's and
she's actually quite funny. I

1779
01:43:56,640 --> 01:44:01,890
didn't realise that she's a
she's a she's a script fixer.

1780
01:44:02,520 --> 01:44:03,450
Carrie Fisher.

1781
01:44:04,170 --> 01:44:08,670
Yeah, the actress apparently.
Yeah. Yeah. My real job is she's

1782
01:44:08,670 --> 01:44:12,930
a writer. So yeah, it's a huge
job. Yeah, no. In fact, like a

1783
01:44:12,930 --> 01:44:16,440
Mercer says that this category
of writer called the body and

1784
01:44:16,440 --> 01:44:20,970
fender people in Hollywood. She
then gently showed her could the

1785
01:44:20,970 --> 01:44:25,110
credits as she drove on, she
fixed a lot of scripts. And she

1786
01:44:25,110 --> 01:44:27,120
says, you know, you have to do
in the way she described how you

1787
01:44:27,120 --> 01:44:29,070
had to do it. And she's always
wanted to be a writer. She never

1788
01:44:29,070 --> 01:44:31,860
wanted to be an actress. Anyway,
Jen, she's kind of shoved out.

1789
01:44:32,190 --> 01:44:35,040
But she was very funny. I
thought she had a lot of one

1790
01:44:35,040 --> 01:44:38,640
liners and she apparently writes
humour into the scripts. But she

1791
01:44:38,640 --> 01:44:43,260
talked about the fact that her
mom, she was, I guess having

1792
01:44:43,290 --> 01:44:46,050
problems with drugs or something
when she was young and her mom

1793
01:44:46,050 --> 01:44:50,340
decided that she could get have
her get a lecture from Cary

1794
01:44:50,340 --> 01:44:51,030
Grant.

1795
01:44:51,060 --> 01:44:54,570
Well, we just have to say her
mom, of course says Oh, Debbie

1796
01:44:54,570 --> 01:44:56,970
Reynolds is her mom. Of course.
Yeah.

1797
01:44:57,060 --> 01:45:00,450
Debbie Reynolds is her mom. And
so she did. She made Cary Grant.

1798
01:45:00,870 --> 01:45:04,560
And apparently Debbie Reynolds
didn't know that Cary Grant was,

1799
01:45:05,040 --> 01:45:10,320
you know, LSD stoner excellent
owner. Yeah, we'll have some

1800
01:45:11,580 --> 01:45:14,310
lectures about how great LSD was

1801
01:45:14,340 --> 01:45:17,100
fantastic. I bet a bet she did a
lot.

1802
01:45:18,300 --> 01:45:20,640
Could be sad. No, she didn't
say.

1803
01:45:22,320 --> 01:45:27,420
Wow. Yeah. Eddie Eddie Fisher
and Debbie Reynolds. Are

1804
01:45:27,420 --> 01:45:28,080
parents.

1805
01:45:28,589 --> 01:45:33,419
Yeah. So was he was very amusing
this show, which is one of my

1806
01:45:33,419 --> 01:45:35,519
favourite shows. And I have just
to look it up because I just

1807
01:45:35,519 --> 01:45:40,499
watched it the last night before
I went to bed. I guess you're

1808
01:45:40,499 --> 01:45:43,499
taking it off of AMC, and
they're either killing the show

1809
01:45:43,499 --> 01:45:47,279
or they're moving it someplace.
I've never seen it. It's a great

1810
01:45:47,279 --> 01:45:48,269
show. But outside make

1811
01:45:49,560 --> 01:45:51,780
sure if you just tell me when
it's on, then I can log into the

1812
01:45:51,780 --> 01:45:54,150
sling box, my choice Detroit or
Hawaii.

1813
01:45:54,539 --> 01:45:58,859
It's a am on Sunday mornings.
And then they do a repeat

1814
01:45:58,859 --> 01:46:01,109
showing some other time during
the week, which I don't know.

1815
01:46:01,109 --> 01:46:05,819
But you can look it up on the
AMC channel guide on online and

1816
01:46:06,089 --> 01:46:09,149
it's called shoot out used to be
called Sunday morning shoot out

1817
01:46:09,149 --> 01:46:11,819
and they change at the shoot
out. And it's the you know, they

1818
01:46:11,819 --> 01:46:14,309
essentially it's an inside
baseball show. They have Barton

1819
01:46:14,309 --> 01:46:17,699
goober and the two of them, who
are especially goobers is

1820
01:46:17,699 --> 01:46:20,639
astonishing in terms of is just
the stuff that he knows and all

1821
01:46:20,639 --> 01:46:23,099
the stuff that he's done, but
they have all these different

1822
01:46:23,099 --> 01:46:25,769
people come on that are all
these people that you'll that

1823
01:46:25,769 --> 01:46:28,259
will never show up on a talk
show because they're just too

1824
01:46:28,259 --> 01:46:31,229
shy all they want to talk about
the business they're in or

1825
01:46:31,559 --> 01:46:34,769
they're uncomfortable in most
venues. But on this show, you

1826
01:46:34,769 --> 01:46:37,289
got the you know, the editor in
chief of variety and the

1827
01:46:37,289 --> 01:46:42,209
superstar you know, executive
producer type who's also a

1828
01:46:42,209 --> 01:46:45,719
professor at UCLA, and they're
very relaxed with these two

1829
01:46:45,719 --> 01:46:48,329
guys. And they and you hear all
these interesting, you know,

1830
01:46:48,359 --> 01:46:51,389
inside baseball anecdotes about
the movie industry and what's

1831
01:46:51,389 --> 01:46:55,199
going on and trends and how
people you know, losing money or

1832
01:46:55,199 --> 01:47:00,659
what they're spending. They had
the guy who did transformers

1833
01:47:00,779 --> 01:47:03,299
that faint famous director does
these big films that came

1834
01:47:03,299 --> 01:47:04,439
through his name. The

1835
01:47:04,440 --> 01:47:10,170
guy who was was fighting against
blu ray. He was the I think I

1836
01:47:10,170 --> 01:47:13,530
think it was in the HD DVD camp.
Or no, I think it was angry

1837
01:47:13,530 --> 01:47:17,100
because his film wasn't coming
out on Blu ray that guy Yeah,

1838
01:47:17,100 --> 01:47:17,580
that guy

1839
01:47:18,090 --> 01:47:20,490
a anyways, I can think of his
name in a second org you look it

1840
01:47:20,490 --> 01:47:26,340
up for people out there can look
it up. He's he was really I

1841
01:47:26,340 --> 01:47:29,370
mean, he's got a really terrible
reputation. People don't like

1842
01:47:29,370 --> 01:47:33,540
him. But he was he was on the
show and it was just it was so

1843
01:47:33,570 --> 01:47:36,300
enlightening but the most
interesting thing he said was

1844
01:47:36,570 --> 01:47:38,520
when they tried to get him to do
the movie and apparently was

1845
01:47:38,520 --> 01:47:40,920
Steven Spielberg that that
talked him into because he

1846
01:47:40,920 --> 01:47:46,410
didn't want to do it. He says
they wanted him to go to Canada

1847
01:47:46,860 --> 01:47:49,740
instead of using his own crew
and he works everybody to death

1848
01:47:49,770 --> 01:47:52,860
you know it makes him he does
like to you know to takes and

1849
01:47:53,700 --> 01:47:56,910
something like 40 setups a day
instead of the normal seven or

1850
01:47:56,910 --> 01:48:01,080
eight and he says he goes to
Canada and he took one look

1851
01:48:01,080 --> 01:48:07,080
around he says there's something
wrong here this is a scam he

1852
01:48:07,080 --> 01:48:10,500
says I'm going back to Hollywood
and shoot this movie you know my

1853
01:48:10,500 --> 01:48:15,480
own and it nobody ever followed
up on this on this this this

1854
01:48:15,510 --> 01:48:19,980
concept that he had the whole
thing was the whole Canada deal

1855
01:48:19,980 --> 01:48:23,250
which a lot of movies are made
up there is some sort of is

1856
01:48:23,250 --> 01:48:25,650
rigged or some sort of
Something's fishy about it

1857
01:48:25,680 --> 01:48:29,130
so it's all it's all just a tax
write off and is supposed to be

1858
01:48:29,130 --> 01:48:31,260
cheaper. Isn't that the whole
deal or is this something

1859
01:48:31,260 --> 01:48:33,330
it's a tax write off? It's
cheaper and the government's you

1860
01:48:33,330 --> 01:48:36,960
know up there support some of it
but he didn't like it. Like any

1861
01:48:37,230 --> 01:48:40,170
any bit of it. I don't know why
he never went into any detail.

1862
01:48:40,170 --> 01:48:40,260
It's

1863
01:48:40,260 --> 01:48:43,680
probably probably the labour yes
to use local labour I

1864
01:48:43,680 --> 01:48:45,750
think are some I guess. Yeah,
maybe.

1865
01:48:46,320 --> 01:48:48,930
It makes a lot of sense. Yeah.
It makes sense. Because I think

1866
01:48:48,930 --> 01:48:52,410
Leo when he would go up to that,
because he doesn't still go up

1867
01:48:52,410 --> 01:48:56,100
to Canada for that nobody cable
show does he? I don't think so.

1868
01:48:56,160 --> 01:48:59,190
Yeah, cuz I know that he would
he would have Callie on and they

1869
01:48:59,190 --> 01:49:03,270
couldn't pay her or whatever.
You know. I mean, I don't know.

1870
01:49:03,270 --> 01:49:07,110
It was weird, but it all had to
do with with regulations. And

1871
01:49:07,350 --> 01:49:12,600
you know, having having to be
someone special for there wasn't

1872
01:49:12,600 --> 01:49:16,410
a Canadian Callie Louis
available. Like that.

1873
01:49:16,620 --> 01:49:19,110
Yeah. Yeah. Something like that.
Which is

1874
01:49:19,589 --> 01:49:24,509
originally Louis and which is
very French. Now the French have

1875
01:49:24,540 --> 01:49:27,630
Yeah, no, that's absolutely the
French we got this crazy, you

1876
01:49:27,630 --> 01:49:28,260
know, the

1877
01:49:28,290 --> 01:49:32,160
crazy, but I'm not against it in
general. I like it. I like the

1878
01:49:32,160 --> 01:49:36,300
fact that certainly in Canadian
broadcast outlets, you know, the

1879
01:49:36,300 --> 01:49:39,540
Echo, certainly on the radio and
X amount, or X percentage of the

1880
01:49:39,540 --> 01:49:43,170
music must be Canadian produced
at least. And I think that's a

1881
01:49:43,170 --> 01:49:43,710
good thing.

1882
01:49:44,219 --> 01:49:46,289
But have they got enough music
after they can do that?

1883
01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:50,310
Yeah, but you know what I mean?

1884
01:49:51,570 --> 01:49:54,930
I think we're done. You looked
at the clock. We're we're

1885
01:49:54,930 --> 01:49:56,160
running at 150

1886
01:49:56,190 --> 01:50:01,320
Holy crap, we shouldn't be doing
that. On On. Everything's

1887
01:50:01,320 --> 01:50:13,500
crashing today. Play edge Okay.
So next week do you want to try

1888
01:50:13,500 --> 01:50:14,160
phone calls?

1889
01:50:15,240 --> 01:50:16,440
Yeah, sure.

1890
01:50:17,130 --> 01:50:19,320
I would the what I was thinking
is I can identify where people

1891
01:50:19,320 --> 01:50:22,140
are calling fun from. I thought
it'd be kind of fun if we're

1892
01:50:22,140 --> 01:50:24,000
talking about so we're talking
about Canada, you know, I can

1893
01:50:24,000 --> 01:50:24,750
just say, Okay.

1894
01:50:25,830 --> 01:50:28,350
Michael Bay, that's the
director. Right?

1895
01:50:28,680 --> 01:50:31,770
I could just say, Hey, listen,
are there in Canada come on in

1896
01:50:31,770 --> 01:50:36,060
and tell us what the story is?
You know? Good. Try it. We've

1897
01:50:36,060 --> 01:50:39,900
known to screen the calls, which
means that people that

1898
01:50:40,290 --> 01:50:42,990
you suck and the guy's gonna
hang on that's,

1899
01:50:43,020 --> 01:50:46,080
that will be okay. But it's
people going Hey, are you doing

1900
01:50:46,800 --> 01:50:51,270
or nothing to say or on a Skype?
Skype headsets are the worst. It

1901
01:50:51,270 --> 01:50:56,910
just is. Not, it doesn't work.
If it's just a headset, and

1902
01:50:56,910 --> 01:51:03,090
you're calling it it sucks. It's
absolutely horrible. Unlike our

1903
01:51:03,090 --> 01:51:11,310
connection today. Okay, coming
