1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,900
Hey Adam curry, John C. Dvorak
coming to you live from both

2
00:00:06,900 --> 00:00:12,900
corners of Gitmo nation. This is
no agenda for March 5 2009. This

3
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:17,190
is no agenda from the crackpot
command center in southwest

4
00:00:17,190 --> 00:00:22,500
London, better known as Gitmo
nation east. I'm Adam curry.

5
00:00:23,340 --> 00:00:25,830
And John C. Dvorak here in
Northern Silicon Valley, better

6
00:00:25,830 --> 00:00:32,070
known as Gitmo nation, West or
the Gitmo nation. Hill

7
00:00:38,100 --> 00:00:39,900
got to be careful not to over
produce now.

8
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,530
Yeah, no, that's gonna happen.

9
00:00:44,130 --> 00:00:48,540
Hey, John, guy, good to talk to
you. I drove a million miles

10
00:00:48,570 --> 00:00:50,040
just to talk to you today.

11
00:00:50,700 --> 00:00:51,420
Where were you?

12
00:00:51,900 --> 00:00:55,680
I was coming from France.
Driving

13
00:00:56,370 --> 00:00:59,700
you drove from France? Yes, I
did. So you know that so? Of

14
00:00:59,700 --> 00:01:01,830
course we all know that means
you put your car inside the

15
00:01:01,830 --> 00:01:02,640
channel. Yes.

16
00:01:03,210 --> 00:01:06,990
Well, actually, let me rephrase
that I put my daughter's car

17
00:01:06,990 --> 00:01:11,520
inside the tunnel. I think you
know since I only have that's

18
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,610
the only car we have left. I
sold the the other two. Since

19
00:01:14,610 --> 00:01:18,180
we're in the city. And she has a
brand new Renault Twingo.

20
00:01:19,470 --> 00:01:22,050
Yes, you know, we've talked
about this before

21
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,050
Well, that one? Yeah. It's it's
not really just a

22
00:01:25,050 --> 00:01:27,540
you drive in that thing is got
to be one of the funniest sites

23
00:01:27,540 --> 00:01:29,610
in history and you even fit in
it. Yeah,

24
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,090
I gotta tell you it was very it
was very comfortable. It was not

25
00:01:33,090 --> 00:01:36,390
bad at all. Now of course, it's
you know, it's 1.5 liter engine.

26
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,890
So once you get into some hill
territory, you know, you better

27
00:01:40,890 --> 00:01:45,840
be moving over into the into the
left hand lane, because you're

28
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:50,340
the slow guy. But it was pretty
good. I mean, it's got a it's

29
00:01:50,340 --> 00:01:53,730
like a driving iPod. It's got a
great sound system it does not

30
00:01:53,730 --> 00:01:57,330
have a lot of exterior noise.
And if you know you can cruise

31
00:01:57,330 --> 00:01:59,850
along at about 80 miles an hour
and it's it's pretty decent.

32
00:02:00,660 --> 00:02:02,880
When did they open the channel?
Again? I thought it was shut

33
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,260
down from that fire. Yeah, they

34
00:02:04,260 --> 00:02:07,770
opened it up. Well, now it's
completely open because they had

35
00:02:07,770 --> 00:02:11,040
one too closed. I think they
have three tubes. It's

36
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,100
interesting because I was just
reading up on that. That you

37
00:02:14,100 --> 00:02:16,530
know, they still predict it's
going to take eight to nine

38
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,040
eight to 12 months before
traffic is really back up to its

39
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,890
pre fire levels. Let me tell you
there was no one on this train.

40
00:02:24,180 --> 00:02:26,880
That's good. Nobody knows it's
running I think I mean, I didn't

41
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:27,180
know

42
00:02:27,210 --> 00:02:31,290
there were 40 cars at best that
that I saw Go on now this is a

43
00:02:31,290 --> 00:02:35,790
mid day trip. But still they I
was reading they just turned a

44
00:02:35,790 --> 00:02:40,380
profit. The that's good. Well,
yeah, after they screw the

45
00:02:40,380 --> 00:02:44,070
bondholders by giving them 10
cents to the to the euro in a

46
00:02:44,070 --> 00:02:48,600
refinance. Refinance deal
billions of euros wiped off the

47
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:53,340
balance sheet. They just
reported they made 50 million

48
00:02:53,580 --> 00:02:59,310
euro pre tax profit. So it's
still it's still a great way to

49
00:02:59,310 --> 00:02:59,700
go.

50
00:02:59,940 --> 00:03:04,200
I agree. I took that ride and I
was impressed and I did take I

51
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,440
took a bunch of photos inside
the cars because there was I

52
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,100
noticed there was a little more
wear and tear which is forbidden

53
00:03:11,130 --> 00:03:13,050
flash photography forbidden in
the tunnel

54
00:03:15,450 --> 00:03:18,030
Yeah, well that wasn't when I
was taking it I wasn't taking

55
00:03:18,030 --> 00:03:21,600
flash photography anyway but why
you if you look outside there's

56
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,870
nothing but a cement wall what
is what are you taking a picture

57
00:03:24,870 --> 00:03:28,530
of is going by like 150 miles an
hour

58
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:33,030
John? were slaves just shut up
sit down and follow instructions

59
00:03:37,020 --> 00:03:38,250
don't make up the rules.

60
00:03:40,170 --> 00:03:42,540
I noticed that they also made
illegal taking pictures in

61
00:03:42,540 --> 00:03:44,700
London you know, which is a
tourist place. You know this

62
00:03:44,700 --> 00:03:46,860
Jack Straw is the guy behind all
this.

63
00:03:47,070 --> 00:03:50,100
Well, it's Don't forget this
Jackie Smith, who was the

64
00:03:50,609 --> 00:03:52,799
what is the name jacket today? I
think it's because they're

65
00:03:52,799 --> 00:03:55,319
jacking the public around.
Object boot.

66
00:03:55,620 --> 00:04:02,010
They call her jackboot. Jackie.
The what does she do they call

67
00:04:02,010 --> 00:04:05,670
her secretary of homeland of the
home office like a secretary to

68
00:04:05,670 --> 00:04:10,290
the home office. She's
frightening woman. But there's

69
00:04:10,290 --> 00:04:14,100
lots of stuff going on here and
get my nation East John as the

70
00:04:14,100 --> 00:04:14,910
yellows Go,

71
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:19,140
run them down to us for Dummies
over here. We don't get any real

72
00:04:19,140 --> 00:04:23,130
news. i We did get some news
about this swingers in England,

73
00:04:23,130 --> 00:04:25,140
there's a bunch of them
apparently, wait a minute, and

74
00:04:25,140 --> 00:04:28,560
also Hey, by the way, Brittany's
got a new tour, and it's gonna

75
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,110
have to do with the circus in
some way, shape or form. I know

76
00:04:31,110 --> 00:04:31,620
what that means.

77
00:04:31,620 --> 00:04:34,410
About 15 minutes from now
Michael Jackson will be

78
00:04:34,410 --> 00:04:39,150
announcing his string of dates
at the otoo arena. They've got

79
00:04:39,150 --> 00:04:42,420
helicopters circling above. I
was just listening on the radio

80
00:04:42,420 --> 00:04:44,850
as I was driving in. He was
supposed to make an announcement

81
00:04:44,850 --> 00:04:49,920
at the O to arena at a to four
o'clock this afternoon. And he

82
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:54,750
just left his hotel in his bus
at 10 past four. Before he gets

83
00:04:54,750 --> 00:04:58,860
to the O to arena it'll be six
o'clock and they've got 1000s of

84
00:04:58,860 --> 00:05:01,710
people waiting there HELOC
copters hovering overhead, and

85
00:05:01,710 --> 00:05:04,020
this is supposed to be his big
comeback announcement?

86
00:05:05,190 --> 00:05:07,500
Well, you know, we have a lot of
action going over here too, you

87
00:05:07,500 --> 00:05:09,570
know, while the economy is
collapsing and people are

88
00:05:09,570 --> 00:05:11,310
looting getting thrown out their
houses and all the rest of it,

89
00:05:11,310 --> 00:05:14,850
there's gonna there's a whole
huge protest. And, and, you

90
00:05:14,850 --> 00:05:17,670
know, on both sides of the
issue, because the today the

91
00:05:17,700 --> 00:05:23,550
California Supreme Court is, is
going to listen to arguments

92
00:05:23,550 --> 00:05:26,490
about Proposition eight to the
gay marriage initiative. And

93
00:05:26,490 --> 00:05:29,850
that seems to be the most
important thing anybody can deal

94
00:05:29,850 --> 00:05:30,360
with here.

95
00:05:31,590 --> 00:05:34,860
All right, let's get into some
real news that before I shoot

96
00:05:34,860 --> 00:05:39,810
myself twice, Bank of England
reduced its interest rate to

97
00:05:39,810 --> 00:05:45,390
0.5%. Another record low for the
bank for in its entire what is

98
00:05:45,390 --> 00:05:51,450
it? 300 year history. And they
have announced immediate

99
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,620
quantitative easing of the
economy. John, have you heard

100
00:05:55,620 --> 00:05:59,070
this term quantitative, or as
they say, in England,

101
00:05:59,190 --> 00:06:02,340
quantitative, which I find
impossible to pronounce?

102
00:06:02,610 --> 00:06:05,070
Quantitative, quantitative,
quantitative.

103
00:06:05,159 --> 00:06:08,969
I know the term over here that's
being bandied about is mild

104
00:06:08,999 --> 00:06:09,809
depression.

105
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,900
No, no, no, no quantitative
easing is an action that is

106
00:06:12,900 --> 00:06:16,260
being undertaken by the
government. Oh, it's called was

107
00:06:16,260 --> 00:06:21,540
mean printing money. Oh, yeah.
So they're now going to brag

108
00:06:21,540 --> 00:06:26,100
about it over here. Yeah. No, we
just do a lot of it. So now that

109
00:06:26,100 --> 00:06:30,840
they're following suit, they're
going to start buying up assets

110
00:06:30,870 --> 00:06:34,650
and and companies of course
that'll only be banks and

111
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,430
they're doing that with new
money printed money because they

112
00:06:38,430 --> 00:06:40,860
need to protect themselves by
creating some inflation because

113
00:06:40,860 --> 00:06:43,890
Oh no, it's not good.
Everything's deflating shits

114
00:06:43,890 --> 00:06:45,810
getting cheaper for everybody
can't have

115
00:06:45,810 --> 00:06:48,120
that that's the way it works.
And that's what they should be

116
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,970
doing because if you got your
interest rates at point five,

117
00:06:51,210 --> 00:06:54,330
when they should be you know,
traditionally at three or or

118
00:06:54,330 --> 00:06:55,440
more one has anything

119
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,830
under six What are you talking
about? The banks are marking it

120
00:06:58,830 --> 00:07:03,840
up by five and a half percent.
You can get a you can't get a

121
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:10,770
mortgage for for one or 2%. No
way. Did you know that Gordon

122
00:07:10,770 --> 00:07:13,740
Brown was in Washington did any
of that reach you amidst all of

123
00:07:13,740 --> 00:07:16,140
this proposition eight and
Britney Spears news?

124
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,470
We all we know is that
apparently Gordon Brown was

125
00:07:19,470 --> 00:07:22,320
supposed to meet with Obama and
Obama says it's snowing. So he

126
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,790
called a snow day. Really? Oh,
man. They never had the meeting.

127
00:07:26,790 --> 00:07:28,620
That's what I mean. That's the
last I heard. Maybe they had the

128
00:07:28,620 --> 00:07:30,390
meeting sense. Well, this,

129
00:07:30,539 --> 00:07:33,209
there were a couple of snow days
being called Nancy Pelosi was

130
00:07:33,209 --> 00:07:38,159
supposed to speak at the Al Gore
Tony Blair was there at the

131
00:07:38,159 --> 00:07:41,129
Global Warming conference. Of
course, she got snowed out

132
00:07:41,129 --> 00:07:45,119
couldn't couldn't land. The
Global Warming conference.

133
00:07:45,660 --> 00:07:47,430
Global warming, no doubt,

134
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:52,440
I think is just great. Now
Gordon Brown now this is this

135
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:58,650
one. It's being seen as a huge
snub over here. He is the first

136
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:06,480
European prime minister to visit
Obama at at our White House, and

137
00:08:06,510 --> 00:08:10,170
only the fifth Prime Minister
ever to address a joint session

138
00:08:10,170 --> 00:08:15,150
of Congress. And he got your
right he got he, I think got a

139
00:08:15,150 --> 00:08:18,930
half hour meeting with Obama
half hour, which is like, you

140
00:08:18,930 --> 00:08:23,550
know, doing half an hour. And
then

141
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,570
she takes 15 minutes to shake
all the hands. Yeah. And

142
00:08:27,570 --> 00:08:32,280
then Obama did not even invite
him to lunch. He had a working

143
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,620
lunch with some other guys. And
then he did his speech to the

144
00:08:34,620 --> 00:08:39,090
joint session of Congress where
I think he received 16 standing

145
00:08:39,090 --> 00:08:45,240
ovations except when he said, we
should tackle this financial

146
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,170
problem together, you could have
heard a pin drop. I just wanted

147
00:08:49,170 --> 00:08:53,880
to play a little bit and then
get your reaction to to Mr.

148
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,450
Gordon Brown, hold on here comes
on.

149
00:08:57,510 --> 00:09:00,300
So let it be said of the
friendship between our two

150
00:09:00,300 --> 00:09:06,600
countries. That it is in times
of trial, true, in face of fear,

151
00:09:06,780 --> 00:09:12,480
faithful and amidst the storms
of change, constant and let it

152
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,920
be set up our friendship also
formed and forged. Over two

153
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,160
tumultuous centuries, a
friendship tested and was

154
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:24,180
strengthened in peace, that it
is not just endured, but is

155
00:09:24,180 --> 00:09:28,290
renewed each generation to
better serve our shared values,

156
00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:32,250
and fulfill the hopes and dreams
of the day. Here it comes not an

157
00:09:32,250 --> 00:09:37,470
alliance of convenience. It is a
partnership of purpose purpose.

158
00:09:38,010 --> 00:09:42,660
alliances can wither or be
destroyed. But partnerships or

159
00:09:42,660 --> 00:09:47,220
purpose are indestructible.
friendships can be shaken, but

160
00:09:47,250 --> 00:09:52,470
our friendship is unshakable.
Treaties can be broken. But our

161
00:09:52,470 --> 00:09:57,540
partnership is unbreakable. And
I know that there is no power on

162
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,810
earth that can ever drive us
Apart

163
00:10:01,290 --> 00:10:05,670
sounded to me like a big brown
nose session, Gordon Brown nose.

164
00:10:07,649 --> 00:10:10,889
Well, let's take a look at what
he said. Let's see, we only

165
00:10:10,889 --> 00:10:16,529
became friends with the British
around 1916 1917.

166
00:10:17,789 --> 00:10:20,879
Yeah, because we didn't we have
like a little argument with

167
00:10:20,879 --> 00:10:22,409
them. It's not how

168
00:10:23,189 --> 00:10:26,939
we actually had two arguments
with them. We had one in 1776.

169
00:10:26,969 --> 00:10:29,699
Yeah. And we told them that to
pound salt, and we kicked them

170
00:10:29,699 --> 00:10:33,329
out of the country. And then of
course, they re attacked us in

171
00:10:33,329 --> 00:10:37,919
the War of 1812 and burnt down
the US. You know, the Capitol

172
00:10:37,919 --> 00:10:42,899
Building in Washington, DC, am
you bris and then we hated him

173
00:10:43,079 --> 00:10:50,489
until around 1916. And, by the
way, the civil war in 1860. If

174
00:10:50,489 --> 00:10:55,439
you look into it, any history
book written between 1860 and

175
00:10:55,709 --> 00:11:01,259
1900, all blamed the British and
the French for fomenting the

176
00:11:01,259 --> 00:11:07,889
war. And it was we were deep in
this series of was deep hatred

177
00:11:07,919 --> 00:11:10,379
of for the British until about,
you know, night, like I said, a

178
00:11:10,379 --> 00:11:16,049
rod just for World War One, when
we were propagandized into

179
00:11:16,049 --> 00:11:20,609
supporting there, the British in
the in that war, because of the

180
00:11:20,609 --> 00:11:23,699
banks having some issues with
financing that they were going

181
00:11:23,699 --> 00:11:24,149
broke.

182
00:11:24,180 --> 00:11:26,910
Gee, is that it? Was that how
many years ago? 80?

183
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:33,900
Yeah, I guess so. Okay,
actually, 90. We're a little

184
00:11:33,900 --> 00:11:38,310
behind two years ago. And so
we've had, and then ever since

185
00:11:38,310 --> 00:11:40,200
then, because we've been there
good pals.

186
00:11:40,709 --> 00:11:43,769
And we have a special
relationship, John special

187
00:11:43,769 --> 00:11:44,549
relationship.

188
00:11:44,579 --> 00:11:48,449
So we've had a special
relationship for about 91 years,

189
00:11:48,629 --> 00:11:55,229
and a relationship of hate for
over 100. So I'm not you know,

190
00:11:55,229 --> 00:11:59,369
so this. So this thing happening
could be, you know, like

191
00:11:59,369 --> 00:12:03,989
turning, turning, like, I hate
I'm like giving him maybe

192
00:12:04,019 --> 00:12:06,209
Obama's telling him to screw
themselves, because they're the

193
00:12:06,209 --> 00:12:09,449
ones, especially if you look at
what the Scott said about what's

194
00:12:09,449 --> 00:12:12,389
an American problem when we were
starting to have trouble Well,

195
00:12:12,419 --> 00:12:15,839
economically, and everybody over
there was like, Screw you,

196
00:12:15,839 --> 00:12:20,429
you're irresponsible. boneheads
you get what you deserve, we're

197
00:12:20,429 --> 00:12:23,129
not going to do it. And now you
know that they're having more

198
00:12:23,129 --> 00:12:24,779
trouble than we are. And it's
like, well,

199
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,520
well, I think you're right. I
think it's very possible.

200
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,600
There's a turning look,
regardless, regardless, it's a

201
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,500
snub, you know, there was no
joint press conference. I mean,

202
00:12:37,500 --> 00:12:43,080
it's a total like he shines
through you. Screw you hear talk

203
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,210
to the plebs over here. Go ahead
and talk

204
00:12:45,210 --> 00:12:50,370
to the hand. Yeah. Where what is
caught? What caused this? Do we

205
00:12:50,370 --> 00:12:53,640
have any background? Do we have
any understanding of why this

206
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:54,810
happened in the first place?

207
00:12:55,470 --> 00:12:59,310
I don't know. And the thing that
that bugs me even more is that

208
00:12:59,310 --> 00:13:04,230
at this very moment, by pumping
$30 billion into AIG, we are we

209
00:13:04,230 --> 00:13:07,500
are actually bailing out
European banks, it's European

210
00:13:07,500 --> 00:13:11,460
banks who are who are in trouble
with AIG is our money is going

211
00:13:11,460 --> 00:13:13,140
to help out the Europeans.

212
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,530
I'm telling you something,
there's something's amiss.

213
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:22,410
There's a missing piece of this
puzzle, that and thanks to our

214
00:13:22,410 --> 00:13:26,610
great media over here that needs
all the help it can get. Never

215
00:13:26,610 --> 00:13:29,850
gonna find out what it is,
unless there's some, you know,

216
00:13:29,850 --> 00:13:32,670
something that we see on C span
by accident.

217
00:13:34,860 --> 00:13:38,730
Well, I've seen a lot of things
on C span by accident, this this

218
00:13:38,730 --> 00:13:43,080
past week, that are highly
entertaining.

219
00:13:44,340 --> 00:13:45,810
Well, what name two?

220
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,680
Well, actually, yeah, by the
way, before

221
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:52,590
we go on, because you mentioned
Pelosi a minute ago. Yeah. So if

222
00:13:52,590 --> 00:13:55,590
anybody is on the west coast to
get a hold of his current San

223
00:13:55,590 --> 00:14:00,390
Francisco Express, they have an
article about the savings and

224
00:14:00,390 --> 00:14:03,660
loan fiasco that took place
during you know, went way back

225
00:14:03,660 --> 00:14:07,170
when I guess it was during the
Reagan administration. And would

226
00:14:07,170 --> 00:14:09,630
they bailed out Charles Keating
and the Keating Five, the

227
00:14:09,630 --> 00:14:11,370
Keating seven or whatever the
heck they were, and you know,

228
00:14:11,370 --> 00:14:14,190
all these savings and loans had
to be bailed out. This was the

229
00:14:14,190 --> 00:14:17,010
first iteration of this sort of
thing wasn't McCain part of the

230
00:14:17,010 --> 00:14:20,940
Keating Five? McCain was but the
more interesting person that

231
00:14:20,940 --> 00:14:25,860
shows up in the story, Nancy
Pelosi she was apparently on the

232
00:14:25,950 --> 00:14:29,460
on the big you know, bribery not
once called bribery, but let's

233
00:14:29,460 --> 00:14:35,940
say campaign donation Htet of
Charles Keating is mob and and

234
00:14:35,940 --> 00:14:39,540
she gets me when they found out
about it, and they were grilling

235
00:14:39,540 --> 00:14:41,820
her at some apparently some of
these investigations that took

236
00:14:41,820 --> 00:14:44,670
place, she was accusing them of
being incompetent for

237
00:14:44,670 --> 00:14:48,960
discovering her. Meanwhile, that
got off somehow disappeared from

238
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,720
the public record or who knows
what now she's like the Speaker

239
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,320
of the House. I'm just cracking
up reading this.

240
00:14:58,530 --> 00:15:05,220
Sheila Bair who is the chairman
of the Federal Deposit Insurance

241
00:15:05,220 --> 00:15:13,530
Corporation? The FDIC says, Hey,
we're running out of money, we

242
00:15:13,530 --> 00:15:18,690
may not be able to insure all
deposits in all banks. Have you

243
00:15:18,690 --> 00:15:23,820
heard this one? No. Yeah, this,
this came out. I think I saw it

244
00:15:24,330 --> 00:15:28,380
late last night or maybe this
morning. Without So,

245
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,940
essentially, the way FDIC works,
it's it's an insurance. And

246
00:15:32,940 --> 00:15:38,580
every bank has to pay a premium
to the FDIC, so that they can

247
00:15:38,580 --> 00:15:42,120
cover what if a bank goes out of
business, then and you know,

248
00:15:42,180 --> 00:15:46,560
when this whole crisis started,
one of the first things that

249
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,790
happened is the amount that is
insured federally, so the

250
00:15:50,790 --> 00:15:54,180
government, the faith and credit
of the United States federally

251
00:15:54,450 --> 00:15:59,220
guarantees that your money is
safe up to $250,000, I think it

252
00:15:59,220 --> 00:16:02,340
was 100, or 150. But they raised
it, if I'm not mistaken,

253
00:16:02,370 --> 00:16:05,880
they raised it to make people
feel better, well, feel better

254
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:13,260
no more. Because so here's the
so first of all, she says

255
00:16:13,260 --> 00:16:15,240
without the assessments, so
that's the payments from the

256
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,240
banks, the Deposit Insurance
Fund could become insolvent this

257
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:22,170
year, they're wrote in a march
two letter to the industry. Now

258
00:16:22,170 --> 00:16:26,430
the problem is that every single
bank has to has to pay. So

259
00:16:26,430 --> 00:16:29,670
you've got these smaller
community banks, if they have to

260
00:16:29,730 --> 00:16:33,480
have to ante up and pay more
into the insurance pot, they're

261
00:16:33,510 --> 00:16:36,300
essentially going to wipe out
all of their if they hadn't

262
00:16:36,300 --> 00:16:40,620
profits and probably, you know,
start to tank because of it. And

263
00:16:40,620 --> 00:16:43,410
they're saying, Well, you know,
we make no distinction in size.

264
00:16:43,650 --> 00:16:45,870
That's the way that's the
mandate. Not that they couldn't

265
00:16:45,870 --> 00:16:48,810
change it. They've changed every
other mandate, including the

266
00:16:48,810 --> 00:16:54,270
document called the
constitution. So this is a this

267
00:16:54,270 --> 00:16:56,220
is a big deal. Particularly is

268
00:16:56,220 --> 00:16:58,590
a big deal. It makes it sounds
to me like they're trying to put

269
00:16:58,590 --> 00:17:01,080
the squeeze on the quality
little banks, the ones that have

270
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:05,160
actually survived this disaster.
Exactly. And did well and showed

271
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,790
that we did banking laws that
were changed by Clinton, where

272
00:17:08,790 --> 00:17:11,100
you could have it national
banks, essentially, because of

273
00:17:11,100 --> 00:17:13,200
Bank of America, like I said
before, used to only be in

274
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,930
California. And now it's
national, it's everything else

275
00:17:15,930 --> 00:17:18,750
is national. And they all these
banks are huge monsters, they're

276
00:17:18,750 --> 00:17:22,590
monstrosities, they the customer
service is terrible. And all

277
00:17:22,590 --> 00:17:25,140
these little banks, like the one
I use over here in my little

278
00:17:25,140 --> 00:17:28,650
town, little privately held
bank, they said they're never

279
00:17:28,650 --> 00:17:32,280
going to sell to the, you know,
to a big company, and they

280
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,760
haven't they've been in business
since 1900. And they do a great

281
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,310
work you can walk in and they
all know that they call you at

282
00:17:38,310 --> 00:17:40,920
home, if there's something weird
happening to your account, you

283
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:41,100
have

284
00:17:41,100 --> 00:17:43,110
a mortgage with them, or do you
do that with a bigger

285
00:17:43,110 --> 00:17:45,120
institution not having a
mortgage? I don't even know.

286
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:50,040
I have a mortgage with a big
crappy institution. Because my

287
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,700
wife had, you know, it's a bone
of contention. It's, you know,

288
00:17:53,700 --> 00:17:53,790
it's

289
00:17:53,790 --> 00:17:56,970
one of these, well, I got the
free credit card account and I

290
00:17:56,970 --> 00:17:57,540
opened it up.

291
00:17:58,470 --> 00:18:02,220
use credit cards anymore. We
only use one by this day said

292
00:18:02,220 --> 00:18:04,290
long story. But the fact of the
matter is short.

293
00:18:04,290 --> 00:18:06,930
Oh, shorten it lead us into your
life. John, actually one of the

294
00:18:06,930 --> 00:18:07,230
problems

295
00:18:07,230 --> 00:18:09,960
is that this this little bank
for during this parish where

296
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,120
this thing where everything was
going crazy, they wouldn't give

297
00:18:12,120 --> 00:18:14,730
anybody mortgages. They didn't
think it was a good idea.

298
00:18:15,090 --> 00:18:17,970
Does really that little bit you
think.

299
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,940
And so to me that what this is
all about is screwing quality

300
00:18:23,940 --> 00:18:27,540
little banks. So we have like
one big national bank.

301
00:18:27,929 --> 00:18:31,889
Oh, well, yeah. Not just one big
National Bank and International

302
00:18:31,889 --> 00:18:34,019
Bank. John, how many times I
have to tell you that's the

303
00:18:34,019 --> 00:18:38,039
agenda. It's going to be the IMF
is positioning itself. It's

304
00:18:38,039 --> 00:18:42,449
moving into place as we speak.
And then this does bring us

305
00:18:42,449 --> 00:18:46,739
right back to the Gordon Brown
Obama flap. I'd call it it's I

306
00:18:46,739 --> 00:18:51,659
think it's an international flap
being underreported?

307
00:18:52,590 --> 00:18:55,800
Yeah. Well, it's because the you
know, the media does what it's

308
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:56,250
told,

309
00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,630
because we have the G 20. Coming
up the G 20. Which includes the

310
00:19:00,630 --> 00:19:03,870
US this is going to be in three
weeks time. I believe it's

311
00:19:03,870 --> 00:19:07,650
happening over here. You know,
this, by the way is the g 20.

312
00:19:07,650 --> 00:19:10,680
Plus to Spain and the
Netherlands are both invited,

313
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,530
even though they're not large
enough to be in the G 20. Of

314
00:19:13,530 --> 00:19:17,250
course, Netherlands, part of the
Anglo Dutch empire. So that's

315
00:19:17,250 --> 00:19:21,270
why Bilderberg they have to be
brought in. Yeah, yeah. Get back

316
00:19:21,270 --> 00:19:23,940
to the point. Oh, I'm going to
come back to Bilderberg

317
00:19:26,130 --> 00:19:27,360
So drinking club.

318
00:19:28,110 --> 00:19:35,040
Yeah, wait until you hear who's
in it. But it looks like Europe

319
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:39,240
has either a plan and they want
then they need America to be a

320
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,500
part of it. Or they have more
likely no plan and desperately

321
00:19:43,500 --> 00:19:45,660
want to be a part of whatever
America is doing, which also

322
00:19:45,660 --> 00:19:49,680
seems to be pretty much no plan.
I mean, weren't we assured that

323
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,830
if we didn't have all the
stimuli packages signed that

324
00:19:52,830 --> 00:19:56,220
500,000 Americans would lose
their job every month. Well,

325
00:19:56,220 --> 00:20:00,060
that was incorrect. It was
actually more like 670,002 We

326
00:20:00,060 --> 00:20:03,180
lost their job in the shortest
month of the year. And when is

327
00:20:03,180 --> 00:20:05,160
this shit going to kick in? When
is it going to work?

328
00:20:06,629 --> 00:20:09,119
Ya know, what was the point of
signing it if it doesn't do

329
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:09,839
anything

330
00:20:09,900 --> 00:20:16,440
and we had to rush and horrible
news front page front page of

331
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,130
the Financial Times. Gordon
Ramsay in trouble.

332
00:20:21,390 --> 00:20:23,850
Gordon Ramsay has been in
trouble for a while. What's the

333
00:20:23,850 --> 00:20:27,030
latest? Well, it looks like he's
getting back to more

334
00:20:27,030 --> 00:20:27,660
interesting.

335
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:33,450
Meanwhile, that's why it's on
the front page of the times. He

336
00:20:33,450 --> 00:20:38,670
has broken some Gordon Ramsay
holdings, who are about it's

337
00:20:38,670 --> 00:20:40,530
interesting, because it's a
private company. But it's so

338
00:20:40,530 --> 00:20:43,350
typical in a socialist society.
This is the same in the

339
00:20:43,350 --> 00:20:45,780
Netherlands, you have to report
your numbers to the Chamber of

340
00:20:45,780 --> 00:20:49,320
Commerce and they publish it. So
everyone can look at your shoes,

341
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,960
it being private, if that's the
case, nothing and then they

342
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,510
ridicule you in the fucking
paper. I hate it when that

343
00:20:54,510 --> 00:20:56,880
happens. So, you know,
obviously, the guy has to

344
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:01,590
renegotiate his 6,006,000,000
pound line. I mean, that's

345
00:21:01,590 --> 00:21:04,830
normal in these times. But now
they're saying, Well, you know,

346
00:21:04,830 --> 00:21:08,010
according to the file report
looks like, you know, just the

347
00:21:08,010 --> 00:21:10,860
fact that it was filed late,
he's broken his covenants, and

348
00:21:10,860 --> 00:21:14,130
he's got to be in trouble. It's,
it's really, you know, it's a

349
00:21:14,130 --> 00:21:17,970
nasty thing to do. But it's so
typical. When someone's high on

350
00:21:17,970 --> 00:21:21,090
the horse, and he's got a big
mouth and gee, I've learned this

351
00:21:21,090 --> 00:21:24,450
firsthand. Man, when when people
can they will kick you in the

352
00:21:24,450 --> 00:21:28,980
ass so hard, so hard, even a
stand up publication, like the

353
00:21:28,980 --> 00:21:31,800
Financial Times. So,

354
00:21:32,490 --> 00:21:35,040
so he's getting kicked in the
butt? Is what you're trying to

355
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:39,600
tell me? Yeah. Big time. Hmm. So
what's the deal? I mean, what's

356
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,180
going on with him? Since his all
public?

357
00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:45,180
Well, this is exactly what I'm
saying is that it looks like

358
00:21:45,180 --> 00:21:48,540
he's broken his covenants, ie he
hasn't paid back his loans. And

359
00:21:48,540 --> 00:21:51,210
he's trying to refinance and
everyone's waiting for the other

360
00:21:51,210 --> 00:21:54,180
shoe to drop. A couple of
celebrity chefs have had to

361
00:21:54,180 --> 00:21:59,700
close their clothes, multiple
restaurants over here. This is

362
00:21:59,700 --> 00:22:03,150
Dan, or the economy here. You
think this is just a little

363
00:22:03,150 --> 00:22:07,470
taster of what you guys are
gonna get. Just a little taster

364
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:13,350
in the Netherlands, because I
had a very European couple of

365
00:22:13,350 --> 00:22:17,940
days. So I was checking out some
Dutch news. They already started

366
00:22:17,940 --> 00:22:21,060
crank this cranking this up
about a year ago. It was in the

367
00:22:21,060 --> 00:22:24,060
press saying, Well, you know, we
have to really work on our

368
00:22:24,060 --> 00:22:30,090
economy. And while we think that
we should raise the the

369
00:22:30,090 --> 00:22:34,170
retirement age and the Finance
Minister about troubles the

370
00:22:34,170 --> 00:22:36,360
other day said, You know what,
we're all gonna have to work

371
00:22:36,360 --> 00:22:38,760
longer moms are gonna have to
get off your ass and work

372
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:45,750
because of all the shortcomings
because they bailed out, Fortis

373
00:22:46,350 --> 00:22:51,420
and an ing. So they're actually
enslaving people now.

374
00:22:52,710 --> 00:22:54,210
That's what it sounds like.
Yeah,

375
00:22:54,300 --> 00:22:57,240
it's true. It's absolutely true.
Well, they've

376
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:01,140
always yearned for the good old
days of the serfdom. Well, here

377
00:23:01,140 --> 00:23:05,340
it is a peasant farmer. Hey,
let's go get some more that

378
00:23:05,340 --> 00:23:06,750
peasant farmers money.

379
00:23:06,780 --> 00:23:11,730
Speaking of farmers, John, I
heard that the farmers is it not

380
00:23:11,730 --> 00:23:15,450
true that most of our corn and
wheat comes from Colorado in the

381
00:23:15,450 --> 00:23:17,580
state like 40% is not a huge

382
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,560
No, I know most of it comes from
Nebraska and Nebraska. Yeah, I

383
00:23:22,890 --> 00:23:25,110
was pretty much of a Mountain
State. Well, I heard

384
00:23:25,110 --> 00:23:27,870
that the farmers are having a
real hard time that you know,

385
00:23:27,870 --> 00:23:31,530
I'm not really into these into
the commodity prices of corn and

386
00:23:31,530 --> 00:23:34,530
wheat and pork bellies, but
apparently they're way

387
00:23:34,530 --> 00:23:39,240
underwater on on selling this
stuff. And it's supposedly so

388
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:43,890
bad that they may not be able to
plant new crops

389
00:23:46,410 --> 00:23:50,100
like that there has not been
anything good. I haven't heard

390
00:23:50,100 --> 00:23:50,400
this.

391
00:23:50,490 --> 00:23:54,390
I think if there any farmers in
the audience, I'd love to know

392
00:23:54,420 --> 00:23:56,220
you know, whether your farm any

393
00:23:56,220 --> 00:23:58,050
farmer is on a hand crank radio,

394
00:23:59,370 --> 00:24:04,980
whether you're farming wheat or
corn or if it's livestock. Yeah,

395
00:24:04,980 --> 00:24:05,730
let us know. Let's

396
00:24:05,730 --> 00:24:08,400
get the farming report in on
this show. Yeah, because

397
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,220
I don't follow the farming
stuff. I'm not good but we

398
00:24:11,220 --> 00:24:11,760
should we

399
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,530
need to follow farming stuff
because this is the most

400
00:24:13,530 --> 00:24:15,840
important business basis. And
it's basic

401
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,350
to survival Absolutely. Basic to
survival.

402
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,130
Well, I do know that this might
be part of it. It seems as

403
00:24:23,130 --> 00:24:26,040
though Obama's gonna pull the
plug or has pulled the plug or

404
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:31,170
is pulling the plug on a lot of
these subsidies to the huge

405
00:24:31,170 --> 00:24:35,070
Farming corporations that get
just a pile of money for doing

406
00:24:35,070 --> 00:24:37,890
pretty much whatever they do
anyway, it's just on top of

407
00:24:37,890 --> 00:24:40,380
whatever they make, because it
goes back to the depression days

408
00:24:40,380 --> 00:24:44,130
when they used to have to, you
know, subsidize the farmer. And

409
00:24:44,130 --> 00:24:46,710
they kept it in play because
he's been that's how these big

410
00:24:46,710 --> 00:24:51,090
farming giant farm companies you
know, got into into the start

411
00:24:51,090 --> 00:24:53,610
playing the game because they
could just score all this easy

412
00:24:53,610 --> 00:24:59,130
money. It may be a kind of a
disinformation campaign. You

413
00:24:59,130 --> 00:25:01,890
know, to moan and groan I went
about this stuff to benefit

414
00:25:01,890 --> 00:25:05,160
these big corporations the
archer Midlands McDaniel's these

415
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,850
kinds of guys that, you know,
expecting to get because

416
00:25:08,850 --> 00:25:10,650
everyone else is getting money
from the government. Why aren't

417
00:25:10,650 --> 00:25:13,380
we kind of thing? So I'm
skeptical. Let's put it that

418
00:25:13,380 --> 00:25:13,560
way.

419
00:25:13,890 --> 00:25:17,040
Well, let's, let's keep our eye
on it because it's important.

420
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,880
It's just as important as oil.
And thanks to net Pierre, who

421
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,940
just twittered that the minute
we started the show the Dow lost

422
00:25:23,940 --> 00:25:24,990
27 points.

423
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,280
Well, we're not Obama would have
lost 270

424
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,820
That guy can't get a break. Now.
I think I think we're now it's

425
00:25:32,820 --> 00:25:36,330
gonna hover around this level. I
believe Jonathan is gonna hover

426
00:25:36,330 --> 00:25:40,020
for a while it may I was
expecting a bigger rally today.

427
00:25:40,020 --> 00:25:43,590
Uh, yesterday, there was a rally
because that has to happen at a

428
00:25:43,590 --> 00:25:45,870
certain point. You can't just
keep good. It's almost like,

429
00:25:46,230 --> 00:25:49,350
well, in any game of Craps, you
know, the odds are it's gonna go

430
00:25:49,350 --> 00:25:53,520
up for a little while. And I
think we're gonna see some

431
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:59,070
rallies between seven and 8000.
And then and then we're probably

432
00:25:59,070 --> 00:26:01,140
around the summertime. I think
that's when we're gonna go hit

433
00:26:01,140 --> 00:26:01,710
six.

434
00:26:02,610 --> 00:26:05,940
We'll go below 2000 way down.
Way down right now today on

435
00:26:05,940 --> 00:26:11,370
3.3%. Today Yeah, so far they've
been NASDAQ's down three points

436
00:26:11,370 --> 00:26:13,500
before because these guys are
always in lockstep. So that

437
00:26:13,500 --> 00:26:19,950
chooses, let me hit the number
here. What is it in 1667? I'm

438
00:26:19,950 --> 00:26:23,160
gonna lose I'm gonna lose a bet
here if this keeps going. Well,

439
00:26:23,610 --> 00:26:26,460
my wife told me to stop betting
because I've had long speak

440
00:26:26,460 --> 00:26:28,110
about a 15 year winning streak

441
00:26:28,140 --> 00:26:32,070
times not every time to stop
Hey, let me go ahead.

442
00:26:32,850 --> 00:26:35,280
She says because I lost the
Obama bet to a bunch of people

443
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,650
you do. I did. I also took the
other side and a couple people.

444
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:46,380
I love you for that. Dow's at
6638. Geez Louise.

445
00:26:48,510 --> 00:26:52,170
Hay not the most the I went to
this masterclass conference for

446
00:26:52,170 --> 00:26:53,130
Final Cut Pro.

447
00:26:54,420 --> 00:26:56,970
Oh, yeah. That's why you're in
Europe. Yeah, the video editing

448
00:26:56,970 --> 00:26:57,390
program

449
00:26:57,390 --> 00:27:00,150
and you know what the one of the
most exciting things was that I

450
00:27:00,150 --> 00:27:04,290
learned that I'm not the only
person who gets a pain in the

451
00:27:04,290 --> 00:27:09,270
ass from sitting down too much
and editing. We had a real get

452
00:27:09,270 --> 00:27:11,610
together there for a moment.
What do you Well, I use powder.

453
00:27:13,740 --> 00:27:17,580
I use a soft inflatable donut.

454
00:27:18,630 --> 00:27:21,090
It's really that's what they
say. Everyone has pain in their

455
00:27:21,090 --> 00:27:23,520
ass from sitting too long
sitting behind this frickin

456
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,700
program editing shit.
Unbelievable.

457
00:27:26,970 --> 00:27:29,970
You know, I think it's time
here's an idea. And I thought

458
00:27:29,970 --> 00:27:34,050
but and by the way, I've thought
about this seriously. And I

459
00:27:34,050 --> 00:27:37,680
don't know if it was triggered
by Rumsfeld or whatever. But to

460
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,140
go back to the standing desk.

461
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,950
I love standing desks, by the
way, standing desks,

462
00:27:43,950 --> 00:27:46,410
which is what Rumsfeld used. And
he used to do that too. I got

463
00:27:46,410 --> 00:27:49,200
that snarky note. And one of
these, you know, one of these

464
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,130
Abu Grob memos. What's wrong
with standing I stand all day.

465
00:27:53,610 --> 00:27:57,210
And but they're standing desk
was extremely popular in the

466
00:27:57,210 --> 00:28:01,530
1700s. And I think like Thomas
Jefferson used, there's a bunch

467
00:28:01,530 --> 00:28:03,930
of these guys, they all use
standing desks because you could

468
00:28:04,530 --> 00:28:07,110
stay us. You could stand and
your and your

469
00:28:07,110 --> 00:28:12,030
ass doesn't like come full of
bedsores. Essentially, I'm just

470
00:28:12,030 --> 00:28:13,140
being honest about it.

471
00:28:13,620 --> 00:28:18,240
So you know, maybe it's time
that we do two of us and what we

472
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:18,660
bring back

473
00:28:18,660 --> 00:28:21,540
from standing desks? Absolutely.
You know, I

474
00:28:21,540 --> 00:28:24,450
had because Yeah, well, what
about it? You know, here's just

475
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,150
take it one step further. No one
has done this. No one's done a

476
00:28:27,150 --> 00:28:28,950
standing computer desk.

477
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,310
And not true. There's plenty of
them. I've looked into this.

478
00:28:32,340 --> 00:28:34,680
There's plenty of standing.
Yeah. And you have you even have

479
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,530
computer desks that you can, you
can raise and lower

480
00:28:37,530 --> 00:28:40,710
electrically. Now there's some
good shit out there. Beautiful,

481
00:28:40,710 --> 00:28:41,730
beautiful desks.

482
00:28:42,390 --> 00:28:45,270
Though I need to go to standing
desk, I think because I do too.

483
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,800
I don't mind when I write
essays, I tend to I actually

484
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:55,200
don't even I use a technique
that I probably started in the

485
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:59,430
1980s before there was a mouse.
And essentially, I find a mile

486
00:28:59,430 --> 00:29:02,520
away from the monitor, which by
the way, has improved my vision

487
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:08,250
enormously. And I put my throw
my feet up on the desk. And I

488
00:29:08,250 --> 00:29:12,720
lean back with the keyboard in
my lap and I type away. And

489
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,690
that's why I use keyboards that
have the little TrackPoint on

490
00:29:15,690 --> 00:29:18,300
them. Because that went on to
get up from that position and

491
00:29:18,300 --> 00:29:20,040
find the mouse and dick around
with it.

492
00:29:20,100 --> 00:29:23,580
What size what size font do you
use when you're sitting

493
00:29:23,580 --> 00:29:27,180
I use a regular six to 12 point
I mean I can read from a huge

494
00:29:27,180 --> 00:29:31,080
distance even though I'm near so
I'm nearsighted. But my vision

495
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,200
as you get older your your
eyeball starts to go farsighted.

496
00:29:34,230 --> 00:29:37,260
Whether you like it or not. And
so far sighted people get

497
00:29:37,260 --> 00:29:41,580
extremely blind, because they go
so far sighted that they're the

498
00:29:41,580 --> 00:29:45,480
ones wearing those huge goggle
glasses and they're kind of like

499
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,410
a coke bottle bear. Yeah, look
at it. Because their eyeball

500
00:29:49,410 --> 00:29:52,230
likes is huge, because all
magnified. But nearsighted

501
00:29:52,230 --> 00:29:55,470
people tend to go toward 2020
and I'm at the point now where I

502
00:29:55,500 --> 00:29:58,770
really don't wear my glasses a
lot. And but anyway, so I use

503
00:29:58,770 --> 00:30:01,500
this trick of throwing my He's
very comfortable and you write

504
00:30:01,500 --> 00:30:06,330
and bow if you feel like some
sort of a leisurely writer. And

505
00:30:06,330 --> 00:30:10,770
I'm not sure I could write long
essays on a standing desk, but

506
00:30:10,860 --> 00:30:14,190
most of my time is spent surfing
and doing research and stuff.

507
00:30:14,550 --> 00:30:17,730
where it'd be nice to walk into
the office, you got a standing

508
00:30:17,730 --> 00:30:20,100
desk, you write to it, you'd
look up something and you walk

509
00:30:20,100 --> 00:30:23,610
out, you don't sit down. And
then your once you sit down, the

510
00:30:23,610 --> 00:30:28,320
momentum of sitting is pushes
you down into the chair. And as

511
00:30:28,830 --> 00:30:31,110
you start to fall asleep

512
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,040
in the, in the 80s, when, when I
started doing radio

513
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,860
professionally, in the in
Europe, everyone had, you know,

514
00:30:37,860 --> 00:30:41,610
sit down consoles, and you'd sit
and you'd have everything built

515
00:30:41,610 --> 00:30:45,780
around you. And in the US it was
all stand. Everything was stand

516
00:30:45,780 --> 00:30:49,320
all the time, because the theory
was the particularly in top 40

517
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,080
radio, the DJ would be more
energetic if you were standing

518
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,120
and I buy into that, by the way.

519
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,090
Yeah, I actually worked on Tom
Lycus. This show I came in as a

520
00:30:57,090 --> 00:31:00,150
guest. He's one of the he was
the number one top 40 guy down

521
00:31:00,150 --> 00:31:02,520
or whatever he talk, I don't
know what he was, he was down in

522
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,880
LA. And then he later went up to
Seattle after they change

523
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,250
formats. And I don't know what
he's doing now. But now he's got

524
00:31:08,250 --> 00:31:12,120
a U haul has worked. And he was
working standing up. And I mean,

525
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,340
it was just short of having a
lavalier mic.

526
00:31:15,900 --> 00:31:18,630
Yeah, that that I've never
gotten into that part the

527
00:31:18,630 --> 00:31:19,560
Lavalier. Mic.

528
00:31:21,630 --> 00:31:24,030
But yeah, he's he would stand up
and I

529
00:31:24,030 --> 00:31:26,160
should go back to stand up. I
really should. It's just it's

530
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,010
hard because you have to get a
desk that's you got to get one

531
00:31:29,010 --> 00:31:33,300
that is adjustable. The electric
adjustable, that's just to a

532
00:31:33,300 --> 00:31:37,080
myself, they're very expensive,
but they're they're awesome. And

533
00:31:37,140 --> 00:31:43,980
thank you to who is this the
Twitter this? Colette, I think

534
00:31:45,660 --> 00:31:48,810
just to remind you that,
according to your previous

535
00:31:48,810 --> 00:31:51,480
predictions on no agenda, the
Dow at this moment should be

536
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:52,740
about 20,000.

537
00:31:58,950 --> 00:32:02,130
According to predictions made
previously on this show, at this

538
00:32:02,130 --> 00:32:05,070
period in time, the Dow should
be about 20,000.

539
00:32:05,490 --> 00:32:08,100
Yeah, I think I'm probably the
one who's responsible for that

540
00:32:08,130 --> 00:32:13,230
bullshit. That's correct. That's
exactly what that's because I

541
00:32:13,230 --> 00:32:16,110
was thinking of the cycle
looking like 1929. But it's

542
00:32:16,110 --> 00:32:19,440
apparently doesn't it looks
exactly like it so far. It looks

543
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:23,250
exactly like 1890, which means
the Dow is kind of languishing,

544
00:32:23,250 --> 00:32:27,210
and it should have a little
bump, like in a year, and go up

545
00:32:27,210 --> 00:32:30,750
probably not to 20,000 or 25. By
the way, one of the numbers I

546
00:32:30,780 --> 00:32:34,590
also bandied about and then
crash again at big time. And

547
00:32:34,590 --> 00:32:37,770
this time, we had no money left,
and I'll be in 2013. That's my

548
00:32:37,770 --> 00:32:39,900
current thinking I Okay,

549
00:32:39,930 --> 00:32:42,930
well, I believe it's been
accelerated. I think that it's

550
00:32:42,930 --> 00:32:43,620
just it's going

551
00:32:43,620 --> 00:32:46,500
much now. No, that's actually i
There's no evidence that this

552
00:32:46,500 --> 00:32:49,140
has ever happened in history,
because what you're trying to

553
00:32:49,140 --> 00:32:55,470
say, is the following. The
market crashed in 2002 1001 and

554
00:32:55,470 --> 00:32:59,310
started in and went dived, and
then it went kind of flat and

555
00:32:59,310 --> 00:33:02,940
never recovered. until like,
last year, when it didn't

556
00:33:02,940 --> 00:33:06,630
recover, it crashed more. And
now it's going even down

557
00:33:06,630 --> 00:33:10,590
further. Actually, we're
returning to 1990 price levels,

558
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,850
on everything, including real
estate. And it's gonna keep

559
00:33:14,850 --> 00:33:17,790
going down because we're broke.
And we're going to have another

560
00:33:17,790 --> 00:33:22,830
tight we just would amount to a
20 year down cycle, which has

561
00:33:22,830 --> 00:33:26,940
never happened in the history of
the world. Well, maybe it's up

562
00:33:26,940 --> 00:33:29,790
during the 100 years war, but
I'm saying in a normal

563
00:33:29,790 --> 00:33:32,760
environment where there's not
some crazy stuff going on. You

564
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:33,090
know, like,

565
00:33:33,630 --> 00:33:37,260
wait, wait a minute, stop back
up for a second. There's not

566
00:33:37,260 --> 00:33:39,660
some crazy stuff going on. What
are you saying

567
00:33:39,690 --> 00:33:43,050
like the Black Plague? What are
the Nikkei? What are

568
00:33:43,050 --> 00:33:46,650
you talking about? How about how
about wars everywhere? We've got

569
00:33:47,610 --> 00:33:51,300
climate change. There's all
kinds of scary things happening,

570
00:33:51,300 --> 00:33:51,750
John.

571
00:33:57,030 --> 00:34:01,110
Oh, I gotta move on, man. I
gotta move on to our shadow

572
00:34:01,110 --> 00:34:06,750
puppet theater. Oh, yes, there
was an announcement. Some new

573
00:34:06,750 --> 00:34:10,110
players on the scene in the
White House, as we've had

574
00:34:10,110 --> 00:34:14,580
several potentials who have not
been able to be confirmed due to

575
00:34:15,240 --> 00:34:22,170
primarily tax evasion. Of
course, Dasha was supposed to

576
00:34:22,170 --> 00:34:28,320
come in to be the health guru.
And I saw this on C span I saw

577
00:34:28,590 --> 00:34:36,120
President Obama introducing
Nancy and parley. And Kathleen

578
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:40,140
Sebelius. Now Sebelius is going
to be the She's currently the

579
00:34:40,140 --> 00:34:46,590
governor of Kansas, and she is
now going to be the what is it?

580
00:34:46,620 --> 00:34:50,580
What's her official title?
Health Health. That helped me

581
00:34:50,580 --> 00:34:51,090
out John,

582
00:34:51,510 --> 00:34:54,720
how to know when you're
straight. You're swinging in the

583
00:34:54,720 --> 00:34:55,440
wind, my friend.

584
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,920
I'm floundering in the pond is
what I'm doing. All right. So

585
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,410
she's supposed to be helping
Secretary, I guess as the title.

586
00:35:01,620 --> 00:35:05,130
So what was interesting as I saw
this on C span and was it was

587
00:35:05,130 --> 00:35:08,640
very different from any other
announcement in in the fact that

588
00:35:08,850 --> 00:35:12,420
the room was only filled with it
sounded and looked like from

589
00:35:12,420 --> 00:35:15,390
what I could see. And on C span,
you get a pretty good vibe of

590
00:35:15,390 --> 00:35:19,590
the of the environment because
there's no voiceover and No, no,

591
00:35:19,590 --> 00:35:22,830
no overlays, and no lower
thirds. It's just the video.

592
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,850
There was just a handful of
press. Normally, after an

593
00:35:26,850 --> 00:35:28,950
announcement like this, you
know, there's lots of applause.

594
00:35:28,950 --> 00:35:32,520
That was nothing. It was just
dead silent. 60 churches here

595
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:37,860
and cameras go off. And then
Savelli is who seems pretty

596
00:35:37,860 --> 00:35:43,290
clean, in general, just looking
into her background. She, she

597
00:35:43,290 --> 00:35:45,870
does a little thank you very
much. And this is important and

598
00:35:45,870 --> 00:35:48,450
health care reform. blahdy
blahdy, blah. And then the

599
00:35:48,450 --> 00:35:51,090
President says, Nancy, do you
want to say anything and this

600
00:35:51,090 --> 00:35:58,440
this little timid woman. And
she's like, she didn't really

601
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,590
want to say anything. And Obama
kind of pushes her up to the to

602
00:36:01,590 --> 00:36:04,380
the podium, at which point was
kind of funny the minute he was

603
00:36:04,380 --> 00:36:08,310
done with his introduction, that
you saw, the two teleprompter

604
00:36:08,310 --> 00:36:13,500
screens get lowered. So his bit
was on telling without the

605
00:36:13,830 --> 00:36:18,930
teleprompter, you saw them. You
saw them levitate down, is these

606
00:36:18,930 --> 00:36:21,990
two boxes on either sides, a
little electro motor in there is

607
00:36:21,990 --> 00:36:26,040
very cool. And then she does
some little nondescript live,

608
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,340
you know, whatever, you know,
great health care reform.

609
00:36:29,340 --> 00:36:32,880
Fantastic. And then I started
looking at this Nancy and the

610
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:38,580
parli. Oh, my goodness, she is
on seven boards of

611
00:36:38,580 --> 00:36:43,290
pharmaceutical companies own
stock, millions of dollars worth

612
00:36:43,290 --> 00:36:46,920
of stock. It all of these
different companies. And she's

613
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:50,790
going to be the white hat, the
person in the White House, the

614
00:36:50,820 --> 00:36:53,700
on the President's team, and
then you're really the liaison

615
00:36:53,700 --> 00:36:57,660
between Sebelius and everybody
else.

616
00:36:57,840 --> 00:36:59,820
God, there's your health care
reform.

617
00:37:01,980 --> 00:37:05,970
It's just unbelievable. When you
and she's got, you know,

618
00:37:06,060 --> 00:37:09,180
hundreds of 1000s of shares and
all these companies.

619
00:37:10,770 --> 00:37:13,530
Now we should find your
portfolio and outline it. Hey,

620
00:37:13,530 --> 00:37:17,130
by the way is talking about
Obama. I do remember when Bush

621
00:37:17,130 --> 00:37:22,860
was president and and he was
roundly criticized by the media

622
00:37:23,370 --> 00:37:27,240
for his use of soldiers as an
ROPs.

623
00:37:28,740 --> 00:37:31,740
And us we criticize them
soldiers as props.

624
00:37:32,010 --> 00:37:34,380
Yeah, no, we never criticized
him for this because it was what

625
00:37:34,380 --> 00:37:37,770
was the point? Yeah, he for
soldiers his property. Bush was

626
00:37:37,770 --> 00:37:42,180
the first president apparently,
who would give a speech with a

627
00:37:42,180 --> 00:37:46,830
whole bunch of soldiers behind
him as props. He'd be trying to

628
00:37:46,830 --> 00:37:50,100
an ice it'd be like the Fifth
Army will be you know, behind

629
00:37:50,100 --> 00:37:53,670
him, right? And standing there,
you know, at attention, you

630
00:37:53,670 --> 00:37:57,090
know, whatever. Okay, so this is
the first time this is

631
00:37:57,090 --> 00:38:01,380
exploiting the soldiers of
America who puts the puts

632
00:38:01,380 --> 00:38:04,260
himself in there. He's not he
never even been in the army and

633
00:38:04,260 --> 00:38:05,250
blah, but you know, even though

634
00:38:06,630 --> 00:38:09,150
Yeah, not a lot of that
criticism flying around is

635
00:38:09,150 --> 00:38:09,510
there.

636
00:38:10,050 --> 00:38:13,170
And now Obama, I saw him
yesterday and he's standing in

637
00:38:13,170 --> 00:38:16,740
front of a bunch of soldiers. I
don't know why they're all back

638
00:38:16,740 --> 00:38:19,050
there behind him and make him
look more presidential. And

639
00:38:19,050 --> 00:38:19,440
another

640
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,740
one was this still the lagoon
place where he I don't

641
00:38:22,740 --> 00:38:24,660
know which one it was. All I
know is I'm looking at this

642
00:38:24,660 --> 00:38:27,120
going wait, what what where's
the criticism of Obama pulling

643
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:32,370
the same? The same scam? You
know, Obama is I, you know, he

644
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,490
he's, I've said this before, on
the show that he's the Steven

645
00:38:35,490 --> 00:38:40,110
Spielberg of presidents. He
steals from the best he takes

646
00:38:40,110 --> 00:38:42,450
every you know, whatever, ready
to do something Reagan did. He

647
00:38:42,450 --> 00:38:44,640
has those people with the
Stooges in the audience when he

648
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,150
gives a speech, which Reagan
perfected. Now, he's using the

649
00:38:48,150 --> 00:38:50,550
bush trick of having the
soldiers in the background. They

650
00:38:50,550 --> 00:38:54,420
got somebody and that's
administration who has studied

651
00:38:54,450 --> 00:38:58,440
all the things that worked in
the past. That's Axelrod I think

652
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:03,000
he must be Axelrod. He's the
only one who would care. No,

653
00:39:03,330 --> 00:39:06,900
lots of flags behind him and of
soldiers. And,

654
00:39:07,290 --> 00:39:10,470
yeah, yeah, doing a beautiful
job.

655
00:39:10,530 --> 00:39:12,990
But where's the media with their
criticism? They were always

656
00:39:12,990 --> 00:39:15,570
leveling on Bush every time the
guy turned around, and foreign

657
00:39:15,570 --> 00:39:16,080
media

658
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,920
has been bought and sold and
paid for and they're all afraid

659
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:24,390
of losing their job. And since
we barely have jobs, that's why

660
00:39:24,390 --> 00:39:28,920
we tackle these problems head
on. We are patently

661
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:33,390
unemployable. Anyway, so who
gives a hoot actually was

662
00:39:33,390 --> 00:39:38,190
697,000 jobs and fairs almost
700,000 jobs lost in the

663
00:39:38,190 --> 00:39:39,390
shortest month of the year.

664
00:39:39,870 --> 00:39:42,360
Yeah, but don't forget to
because of this. The bill, there

665
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,280
were at least a million jobs
saved.

666
00:39:45,390 --> 00:39:46,860
It's so unbelievable.

667
00:39:48,660 --> 00:39:53,850
So don't think of it as 700,000
jobs last seen a net gain of

668
00:39:53,850 --> 00:39:54,840
300,000.

669
00:39:55,770 --> 00:39:59,070
While we're at it, let's just
see if if recovery.gov has any

670
00:39:59,070 --> 00:40:03,930
news today. I Haven't looked. I
go there every say every. Now

671
00:40:03,930 --> 00:40:04,290
now they've

672
00:40:04,740 --> 00:40:07,140
actually changed it for you.
Okay, well, that's all they

673
00:40:07,140 --> 00:40:08,550
have a new graph.

674
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,270
Okay, change they've made so
far.

675
00:40:12,690 --> 00:40:15,360
Yeah, this is the only this is a
significant change to have a new

676
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:19,500
graph at the top and about the
estimated distribution of

677
00:40:19,500 --> 00:40:21,540
highway infrastructure funds,

678
00:40:22,050 --> 00:40:24,660
pull on a second I get a boom, I
haven't have to have to wait in

679
00:40:24,660 --> 00:40:25,710
my browser.

680
00:40:25,950 --> 00:40:30,960
I know. It's huge. Like get this
sharp. That's not an AIB

681
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:38,010
standard banner Obama, you got
to fix that. Now, it's the same

682
00:40:38,010 --> 00:40:40,830
video. That's okay. It's a
little makeover. But this I

683
00:40:40,830 --> 00:40:47,100
still see no reporting. where's
the where's the reports? Oh,

684
00:40:47,250 --> 00:40:48,240
man, it's not they're

685
00:40:48,570 --> 00:40:51,090
supposed to it goes all here.
They're here somewhere because

686
00:40:51,090 --> 00:40:52,020
they promised them

687
00:40:52,050 --> 00:40:54,180
the National Institute of
Standards and Technology

688
00:40:54,180 --> 00:40:58,230
received $610 million in funds
as part of the American Recovery

689
00:40:58,230 --> 00:41:01,290
and Reinvestment Act. What do
they need with that money? The

690
00:41:01,290 --> 00:41:03,900
NOAA receives 830 million.

691
00:41:06,510 --> 00:41:08,190
Can we can't get on this ticket.

692
00:41:09,300 --> 00:41:13,770
The UK had had they announced
the plan two months ago, I

693
00:41:13,770 --> 00:41:16,170
believe that was supposed to
help small and medium

694
00:41:16,170 --> 00:41:21,420
businesses. And of course,
there's nowhere except maybe now

695
00:41:21,420 --> 00:41:26,310
on real health now.gov.uk There
might be a link. But no one

696
00:41:26,310 --> 00:41:29,220
could really figure out where to
get this help this this money

697
00:41:29,220 --> 00:41:33,510
was you know, like a billion
pounds. And only last week that

698
00:41:33,510 --> 00:41:36,360
they that they file the
appropriate paperwork so that it

699
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:38,910
goes through the appropriations
committee, or however that works

700
00:41:38,910 --> 00:41:41,340
over here. They don't expect the
money to be available for

701
00:41:41,340 --> 00:41:45,660
another two months. It's a
complete fucking scam. It's just

702
00:41:45,660 --> 00:41:49,710
scamming. You know where the
money's going. It's going to

703
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,610
more money going to bankers. And
everyone's just go, You know

704
00:41:53,610 --> 00:41:56,490
what, we're stupid. That's what
we are. We're stupid. We should

705
00:41:56,490 --> 00:42:01,320
be out there getting our own
part of this scam. Just stupid.

706
00:42:01,740 --> 00:42:03,390
We can't get in on a scam. So

707
00:42:03,390 --> 00:42:06,480
let's talk about the Turkish
Airlines Flight.

708
00:42:07,110 --> 00:42:10,320
Oh, yes. This is one of your
specialties that we need to

709
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,510
actually we wouldn't be talking
about producing the show. We

710
00:42:12,510 --> 00:42:15,480
could have a little segment. You
know about Adam, you know,

711
00:42:15,540 --> 00:42:17,910
investigates the something. You
know, that could be a little

712
00:42:17,940 --> 00:42:18,660
jingle? Yeah, we

713
00:42:18,660 --> 00:42:20,610
could just start that the
beginning of the show? Because

714
00:42:20,610 --> 00:42:21,270
that's all I do.

715
00:42:22,050 --> 00:42:23,850
Well, you do plenty of other
things.

716
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:32,100
So let me just give you a quick
rundown. So yesterday, the Dutch

717
00:42:32,100 --> 00:42:36,570
Transportation Safety Board,
which is headed by the chairman

718
00:42:36,570 --> 00:42:39,390
of that is Mr. Peter from Volvo
footwear. I think we have to

719
00:42:39,390 --> 00:42:41,550
stop at that for a moment
because we were talking about

720
00:42:41,550 --> 00:42:46,380
him the other day on the show in
regards to this horrible

721
00:42:46,410 --> 00:42:50,430
accident, and something else
that that happened between

722
00:42:50,430 --> 00:42:52,980
himself and my wife. And that
was

723
00:42:53,850 --> 00:43:00,210
Yeah, well, let me summarize.
You made the assertion, you

724
00:43:00,210 --> 00:43:04,890
allege that he is a master
because he bumped up into your

725
00:43:04,890 --> 00:43:10,080
wife with apparently some sort
of excited to member and and

726
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,120
kind of rubbed up against her a
little bit. You know what she

727
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,640
was standing there. And she was
so gassed by this. And

728
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,950
meanwhile, of course, was not
known to the general public. And

729
00:43:16,950 --> 00:43:20,580
I'll bring it up before you do.
This was picked up by the Dutch

730
00:43:20,670 --> 00:43:21,420
media.

731
00:43:21,450 --> 00:43:25,890
Yes. Well, and I'm actually I'm
actually thinking because we

732
00:43:25,890 --> 00:43:29,280
discussed a lot and you know,
although that was a humorous

733
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:32,100
moment, in that particular
segment, we were talking about

734
00:43:32,610 --> 00:43:36,900
the crash about tension between
the Secretary General it's one

735
00:43:36,900 --> 00:43:40,920
of the highest service civil
servants in the Justice

736
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:44,160
Department and Turkey and
there's all kinds of real weird

737
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:47,970
shit going on around him and,
and child abuse. And so there

738
00:43:47,970 --> 00:43:50,370
was a lot happening in that
segment. And that's it. Oh, by

739
00:43:50,370 --> 00:43:54,600
the way, this guy who's heading
up the the investigation who's

740
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,540
the chairman of the Traffic
Safety Board, he's kind of a

741
00:43:57,540 --> 00:43:59,430
funny guy, because here's what
happened with him and the

742
00:43:59,430 --> 00:44:03,420
pattern by the way, that that
thing that happened that

743
00:44:03,420 --> 00:44:09,300
happened over 25 years ago, and
I didn't point that out. But

744
00:44:09,300 --> 00:44:12,480
time is relative. So that got
picked up but it got picked up

745
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,840
by you know, like they they
teased it on the 11 o'clock news

746
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:19,020
that was coming right up and
they called the they called the

747
00:44:19,020 --> 00:44:24,390
Royal Dutch you know, the Royal
Family Information one you know,

748
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,060
apartment or whatever and said
can you and of course of course

749
00:44:27,060 --> 00:44:32,160
they said no comment. And they
actually played a snippet of the

750
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:37,710
show and they had it subtitles
Oh man. Unbelievable and I knew

751
00:44:37,710 --> 00:44:38,190
something but they

752
00:44:38,190 --> 00:44:40,860
never gave us any any Guinea
they never said that was the no

753
00:44:40,860 --> 00:44:43,920
agenda podcast did they? Well, I

754
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,640
didn't see the I cannot find the
actual No, I think they did say

755
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,580
no agenda, but I couldn't find
the actual piece online. I

756
00:44:50,580 --> 00:44:53,370
didn't see it live but boy, I
knew about it because you know,

757
00:44:53,370 --> 00:44:56,910
of course every stupid top 40
radio Morning Show was calling

758
00:44:56,910 --> 00:45:00,450
me at 7am who had seen it the
night before you know then They

759
00:45:00,450 --> 00:45:03,450
do as they get your cell phone
number and they call on like

760
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:05,970
you're supposed to pick up and
then they surprise you with this

761
00:45:10,500 --> 00:45:14,220
which I've learned, I've learned
to nailed it. Yeah, I've learned

762
00:45:14,220 --> 00:45:18,780
to avoid that. You know if you
get a call it seven in the

763
00:45:18,780 --> 00:45:22,860
morning that is unidentified. I
mean, seven. That is an

764
00:45:22,860 --> 00:45:25,830
identifiable, you know, it's
Something's Afoot. Anyway,

765
00:45:25,830 --> 00:45:28,650
Patricia was she was laughing
about it. She's like, Yeah,

766
00:45:28,650 --> 00:45:28,830
well,

767
00:45:28,980 --> 00:45:31,260
I'm glad she has a good sense of
humor. She Yeah, come on.

768
00:45:31,260 --> 00:45:34,020
She has a great sense of humor.
Not to mention, but I said what

769
00:45:34,110 --> 00:45:36,210
they're gonna call you. She
said, Hey, ladies, don't talk

770
00:45:36,210 --> 00:45:38,760
about shit like that. I don't
know if they can just if they

771
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:38,970
want

772
00:45:39,270 --> 00:45:44,070
their husbands. Just go. Oh,
yeah, I got some stuff. What's

773
00:45:44,070 --> 00:45:45,720
that wet spot on your back?

774
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:53,100
Okay, anyway. So when this crash
took place, I do want to say my

775
00:45:53,100 --> 00:45:57,750
immediate reaction to this based
on information that I had was

776
00:45:57,930 --> 00:46:04,290
fuel starvation, meaning that
there was not enough fuel going

777
00:46:04,290 --> 00:46:07,740
into the engines. And then and
it's important for the listeners

778
00:46:07,740 --> 00:46:09,900
to understand there's a
difference between engines

779
00:46:09,930 --> 00:46:15,210
stalling, and an airspeed stall,
every airplane will stay aloft

780
00:46:15,210 --> 00:46:18,990
will float its physics at a
certain speed. And that's based

781
00:46:18,990 --> 00:46:21,600
upon the the size, the weight.
And of course, the wing is

782
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:26,910
really what notes it's all about
the wing. So if you if you run

783
00:46:26,910 --> 00:46:31,260
out of airspeed, then you will,
it will not fly, it's it can be

784
00:46:31,260 --> 00:46:35,010
going 100 miles an hour. But if
if that's outside of the

785
00:46:35,010 --> 00:46:38,550
envelope, for that particular
aircraft, it will fall to the

786
00:46:38,550 --> 00:46:41,580
ground like a brick, it will not
glide at a certain point. Okay,

787
00:46:41,580 --> 00:46:42,420
get to the point.

788
00:46:43,860 --> 00:46:47,670
So they came out. And this was
an amazing press conference

789
00:46:47,670 --> 00:46:51,000
particularly so short to have
this much detail. Now what they

790
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:54,960
did not give us his actual
cockpit voice recorder

791
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,990
transcripts, or even any inkling
of conversation that went on in

792
00:46:57,990 --> 00:47:03,090
the cockpit. But according to
the black box, the data recorder

793
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:09,000
at about 2000 feet. On their
final approach, the out LD

794
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:12,990
altimeter broke, and there's two
and this altimeter is locked

795
00:47:12,990 --> 00:47:18,900
into the autopilot and auto
thrust, which apparently are two

796
00:47:18,900 --> 00:47:23,700
independent systems. And it then
registered, hey, wait a minute,

797
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:28,920
it would send data to the planes
computer saying the the plane is

798
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:33,030
actually on the ground. It's
minus That was eight feet? Well,

799
00:47:33,030 --> 00:47:36,090
it's minus it's minus eight
feet, but some people is below

800
00:47:36,090 --> 00:47:40,020
sea level. So it would be
approximately on the ground. And

801
00:47:40,020 --> 00:47:43,920
in an auto land approach, and
I'm not an expert in the system.

802
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:48,600
So I'm really just replaying
what was said, you know, the the

803
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,570
aircraft when it's on the
ground, or when it's approaching

804
00:47:51,570 --> 00:47:54,870
the ground, it will, you know,
turn the engines to idle,

805
00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:57,630
because that's what you do. And
then you gloat you glide down,

806
00:47:57,630 --> 00:48:00,660
you float boom, and you land and
you're done. In some cases, the

807
00:48:00,660 --> 00:48:04,230
autopilot will actually flare
the plane. And in other cases,

808
00:48:04,260 --> 00:48:06,780
it could even do a reverse
thrust on the engines. I'm

809
00:48:06,780 --> 00:48:09,030
told he read the flare the plane
Oh,

810
00:48:09,060 --> 00:48:12,930
so when you're landing, at the
very last moment, just before

811
00:48:12,930 --> 00:48:15,390
you're touched the touchdown,
you pull back on the stick

812
00:48:15,390 --> 00:48:19,110
gently, so the nose goes up. And
then you come down. You know,

813
00:48:19,110 --> 00:48:22,740
that's kind of like just the
perfect, right? You try to get

814
00:48:22,740 --> 00:48:24,900
that perfect all wheels at the
same time. Well, it depends on

815
00:48:24,900 --> 00:48:27,480
the aircraft, but you flared a
little bit, it slows you down,

816
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:31,260
then you just pop down onto the
onto the pavement. So this

817
00:48:31,260 --> 00:48:34,800
happened. So what happened is,
so this little under 2000 feet,

818
00:48:36,870 --> 00:48:39,810
the computer all of a sudden
gets the signal, hey, wait a

819
00:48:39,810 --> 00:48:42,960
minute, we're on the ground, it
starts to it does two things it,

820
00:48:43,500 --> 00:48:47,790
it starts to retard the engines
essentially, start starving them

821
00:48:47,790 --> 00:48:50,550
a fuel because it's going to
idle, it's not going slower.

822
00:48:50,550 --> 00:48:53,100
It's turning them to idle. And
then there's a warning, the

823
00:48:53,100 --> 00:48:57,930
warning says your gear is not
down. And of course these guys,

824
00:48:57,930 --> 00:48:59,880
they couldn't see the ground at
that point because there was

825
00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:06,690
some cloud cover. But they
ignore that warning. And it only

826
00:49:06,690 --> 00:49:11,580
can only be about 15 or 20
seconds later is when they're,

827
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:16,320
you know, so the engines have
cut. And so the plane is losing

828
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:20,070
speed rather rapidly. And all of
a sudden, they noticed because

829
00:49:20,070 --> 00:49:23,190
the stick shaker goes off.
That's which is a warning saying

830
00:49:23,190 --> 00:49:25,440
your plane is about to stall
because they didn't have enough

831
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:29,730
airspeed. And then apparently,
you know, someone throttled up

832
00:49:29,730 --> 00:49:33,360
really fast and then pulled the
nose up and it was just too

833
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:35,790
little too late. And then the
tail hit the ground and then it

834
00:49:35,790 --> 00:49:40,740
slammed down. So here's here's
what's interesting about this.

835
00:49:40,740 --> 00:49:44,430
The the first words out of the
chairman's mouth were were

836
00:49:44,430 --> 00:49:49,890
sending a message to Boeing.
They were they were dead set on

837
00:49:49,890 --> 00:49:54,600
not blaming the pilots. They
said Boeing needs to know that

838
00:49:54,990 --> 00:49:59,970
there's a system flaw. If the
altimeter doesn't work, you know

839
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,910
that, that in Under no
circumstances should the auto

840
00:50:02,910 --> 00:50:06,090
throttle still be engaged if
there's a fault and that should

841
00:50:06,090 --> 00:50:09,480
be put into the manual and
essentially saying boat not

842
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:13,710
really blaming Boeing but
saying, Boeing you guys, you've

843
00:50:13,710 --> 00:50:15,630
got to change the way you
operate because this is a

844
00:50:15,630 --> 00:50:18,900
dangerous situation. Now,
another interesting data point

845
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:24,960
on the flight data recorder,
which records 2425 hours, so it

846
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:28,440
had the last eight flights this
aircraft made, the exact same

847
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:32,550
thing happened twice where the
altimeter broke, and started

848
00:50:32,550 --> 00:50:36,360
registering incorrect data
passing that through to the to

849
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:41,910
the flight systems, yet there
was no accident. But in flight

850
00:50:41,910 --> 00:50:46,290
terms, the number one things
you're supposed to be watching

851
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:50,760
no matter who's flying the plane
autopilot or not, is airspeed

852
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:55,350
and altitude. And this and if
this if all this data is true,

853
00:50:55,350 --> 00:50:59,070
and if it's if it's all correct,
and I'm not talking any

854
00:50:59,070 --> 00:51:02,700
bullshit, I hate to say it, but
it was complete pilot error.

855
00:51:03,570 --> 00:51:07,680
Because they got three guys in
the cockpit. And whatever they

856
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:11,370
were doing, they were not
watching the speed. And I just

857
00:51:11,370 --> 00:51:16,080
ran out of speed. Because if you
want to then hit the thrust that

858
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,840
takes three seconds for the
engines to spool up from idle,

859
00:51:18,870 --> 00:51:21,630
so that they just had no chance
but they were doing something

860
00:51:21,630 --> 00:51:25,260
else other than paying attention
to the airspeed. Which anyone

861
00:51:25,260 --> 00:51:29,190
who's ever taken flying lessons.
Or currently flies knows that

862
00:51:29,190 --> 00:51:32,640
that is number one. Your
airspeed without airspeed you're

863
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,460
dead? And yeah, yeah,

864
00:51:35,910 --> 00:51:41,730
I am in. No, this is the joke of
the you know, we had this big

865
00:51:41,730 --> 00:51:46,200
wreck out here in California,
and they blame the the engineer.

866
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:46,950
For the

867
00:51:48,180 --> 00:51:49,920
next thing, the idea was Texas
huge

868
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:52,440
instant texting thing when the
fact of the matter is people

869
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:54,810
have witnessed the fact that the
signals were wrong.

870
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:59,040
But anyway, but it was so so I
think that now Turkey, of

871
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:03,360
course, has responded saying,
you know, our pilots are heroes,

872
00:52:03,390 --> 00:52:06,630
you know, this is bullshit. It's
not pilot error. And anyone in

873
00:52:06,630 --> 00:52:10,080
aviation knows that if that
these are the facts. Yes, there

874
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:12,720
was something wrong with the
aircraft, but they had many,

875
00:52:12,720 --> 00:52:16,560
many opportunities to correct it
if they had paid attention to

876
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:21,960
their airspeed. But you had the
you had the the, the captain in

877
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:25,080
the left seat, and so in the
command chair, if you will, and

878
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:29,340
then the trainee who he's, you
know, he had 3000 hours, you

879
00:52:29,340 --> 00:52:32,100
know, the guy has to learn
somehow, it's very normal that

880
00:52:32,100 --> 00:52:35,520
you have a first officer
trainee, and then the actual

881
00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:38,400
first officer sitting on the
jump seat. And whatever was

882
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:41,370
going on, maybe someone's you
know, they might have had all

883
00:52:41,370 --> 00:52:44,460
heads down looking at something
else or doing a demo or Hey,

884
00:52:44,460 --> 00:52:52,380
watch force. If you ever hear a
pilot say watch this, who? You

885
00:52:52,380 --> 00:52:53,430
know, it's all over.

886
00:52:54,630 --> 00:52:58,770
So where'd you get that you had
a document you sent me was a

887
00:52:58,770 --> 00:53:01,350
PDF, or where'd you get that?
That had all these details on

888
00:53:01,350 --> 00:53:01,950
it? That was

889
00:53:01,980 --> 00:53:05,550
an official release from from
the Transportation Safety Board.

890
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:11,070
All right, so what is it? What
is this all mean? Well, we've

891
00:53:11,100 --> 00:53:13,800
deconstructed it, we'll we'll
accept your explanation. That

892
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:15,360
was pilot error. And it makes
sense,

893
00:53:15,390 --> 00:53:20,310
right, I think that I find it
interesting that they come up

894
00:53:20,310 --> 00:53:23,610
with so much detail so quickly,
that they immediately point

895
00:53:23,610 --> 00:53:26,790
blame towards you know, that
it's now a political thing is,

896
00:53:26,940 --> 00:53:30,660
it's very political, because
who's going to pay the damages.

897
00:53:30,900 --> 00:53:32,820
But you know, the airline
immediately said, oh, we'll give

898
00:53:32,820 --> 00:53:35,160
everyone five grand
compensation. And then, of

899
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:38,730
course, they've already formed a
class action that likes fucky.

900
00:53:38,730 --> 00:53:42,030
With your five brand. I don't
think so. So everyone's pointing

901
00:53:42,030 --> 00:53:46,440
the other way. And that was just
interesting that that was, that

902
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,380
was the main thing that came out
so quickly, usually, you know,

903
00:53:49,380 --> 00:53:53,490
there's a preliminary report,
but to go into such detail about

904
00:53:53,490 --> 00:53:56,850
you know, there's two systems
and there's a altimeter one,

905
00:53:56,850 --> 00:54:01,410
altimeter two, I'd really still
like to hear the, the tower,

906
00:54:01,830 --> 00:54:05,160
speaking to the aircraft, which
that recording was removed

907
00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:07,080
immediately. And I think we
should have at least a

908
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,990
transcript of what was said in
the cockpit because the sum

909
00:54:10,020 --> 00:54:13,200
doesn't add up. You know, if you
really are three experienced

910
00:54:13,650 --> 00:54:17,970
Airmen, to miss something like
your airspeed is it's a real day

911
00:54:17,970 --> 00:54:20,910
record. I mean, it's just it's
hard to imagine that that

912
00:54:20,910 --> 00:54:24,840
happened. So but I can't really
make a conspiracy out of it. I

913
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,270
wish I could make a Boeing
Airbus thing out of it, but

914
00:54:27,300 --> 00:54:28,440
doesn't seem possible.

915
00:54:28,890 --> 00:54:31,500
Yeah, well, I'm sure one of
those will come up shortly.

916
00:54:33,150 --> 00:54:34,380
The show is not over yet.

917
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:42,030
So if you go to my blog, you'll
see a very funny I don't usually

918
00:54:42,030 --> 00:54:45,120
put produce videos up but
there's a funny episode of The

919
00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:51,390
Daily Show, where they basically
slam CNBC. Rick Santelli,

920
00:54:51,390 --> 00:54:54,780
apparently was invited as a
guest on the show. And he and he

921
00:54:54,780 --> 00:54:58,650
has, as Stuart said, bailed out.
Shall I play it? Is it how long

922
00:54:58,650 --> 00:55:02,100
is it? Not too long. It's really
long, but it's really but I

923
00:55:02,100 --> 00:55:04,860
recommend to people because it's
extremely funny but the funniest

924
00:55:04,860 --> 00:55:08,760
part is they finally get to the
end of it where they had CNBC,

925
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:12,990
interviewing Stanford that
scammer that, you know, they ran

926
00:55:12,990 --> 00:55:16,920
off of a billion dollars. Yeah.
And it's just sits as this huge

927
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:20,460
softball thing and then it
builds up to the end and Stewart

928
00:55:20,460 --> 00:55:24,360
stops and says, Okay, he's got
the money question coming. Here

929
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:26,790
it comes in this is gonna really
get you Oh, they got the guy in

930
00:55:26,790 --> 00:55:30,690
the chair. You know, here you
go. And then he started off with

931
00:55:30,690 --> 00:55:32,910
him saying, How come you didn't
get caught up in the investment

932
00:55:32,910 --> 00:55:38,700
scandal? Because it was a scam.
So anyway, so the it gets very

933
00:55:38,700 --> 00:55:42,990
sad. The interviewer goes, so
Mr. Stanford, what's it like to

934
00:55:42,990 --> 00:55:44,070
be a billionaire?

935
00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:46,620
Oh, my God, really?

936
00:55:46,980 --> 00:55:50,160
And all that was missing the way
I saw it was the guy sniggering

937
00:55:50,160 --> 00:56:00,060
and then picking his nose that's
amazing. Hey, getting I got a

938
00:56:00,060 --> 00:56:01,200
link for you, man. Hold on.

939
00:56:01,260 --> 00:56:04,470
I'm gonna send you this link.
This is something we could have

940
00:56:04,470 --> 00:56:08,040
thought up. Of course, we
didn't. Hold on.

941
00:56:09,060 --> 00:56:10,380
We're too busy talking.

942
00:56:10,410 --> 00:56:17,130
This is true. This is a website
where you can help choose the

943

Sexiest Vegetarian next door
2009

944
00:56:22,620 --> 00:56:24,660
Now this has been going on for a
few years.

945
00:56:24,690 --> 00:56:26,400
I've never seen this. And the

946
00:56:28,350 --> 00:56:30,360
sex is vegan. I thought

947
00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:33,480
this was new. The old kind of
scrawny

948
00:56:33,990 --> 00:56:36,870
peta.org I was looking at yes
karate.

949
00:56:37,860 --> 00:56:39,690
I think Brooks pretty meat on
your

950
00:56:39,690 --> 00:56:43,170
bones. Amanda look at Brooke
Brooks pretty good. Now this is

951
00:56:43,170 --> 00:56:46,170
funny. This is a this is like
our it's just like that's the

952
00:56:46,170 --> 00:56:50,130
single elimination tournament
and the NC double A or something

953
00:56:50,130 --> 00:56:53,940
they got this thing was off.
Hey, we can do our fantasy,

954
00:56:54,240 --> 00:56:57,420
Brooke and she'll take on the
winner of amber and Christina

955
00:56:57,420 --> 00:56:58,530
and the next round.

956
00:57:01,170 --> 00:57:02,670
How about Amy? Now? They're

957
00:57:03,690 --> 00:57:05,220
looking at Amy at the bottom.
Yeah, she's

958
00:57:05,220 --> 00:57:07,680
scrawny man, and then a lot of
implants.

959
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,050
She can't even stand up. She's
so thin. She's

960
00:57:10,050 --> 00:57:13,560
lying down. I'm so weak from not
eating out.

961
00:57:13,590 --> 00:57:17,760
The poor woman can't stand. I'm
so weak. I must lay down in my

962
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:20,580
lingerie. She looks like she's
got fake top.

963
00:57:21,300 --> 00:57:23,010
Hell yeah. It's totally fake.

964
00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:25,560
So that'll be on the

965
00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:26,310
show notes.

966
00:57:27,330 --> 00:57:31,080
Yeah, we'll send you the link
and here's one Amanda of age 23.

967
00:57:31,500 --> 00:57:42,300
All tattooed up like Amy
Weinstein house or whatever. But

968
00:57:42,300 --> 00:57:46,110
this is good. Amanda. She lives
in Australia and California. I

969
00:57:46,110 --> 00:57:48,120
don't know how that would.
That's what I call a long

970
00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:53,910
commute. back to her hometown of
Fulton, New York. International

971
00:57:53,910 --> 00:57:54,570
what she has

972
00:57:54,570 --> 00:57:56,700
her own little Trilateral
Commission right there. She

973
00:57:56,700 --> 00:58:00,540
loves to cook, and especially
loves to create her own unique

974
00:58:00,540 --> 00:58:04,140
recipes Much to the delight of
her family who God knows where

975
00:58:04,140 --> 00:58:08,790
they live. Amanda says that even
her brothers who hunt and fish

976
00:58:08,850 --> 00:58:13,830
enjoyed the meat substitute. The
Adventurous vegetarian also

977
00:58:13,830 --> 00:58:18,600
loves skydiving tattoos, notably
biking so what is kind of a

978
00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:23,790
hobby is that here comes here
comes skating and filmmaking.

979
00:58:23,970 --> 00:58:28,110
She hopes to work in an industry
someday well from the looks of

980
00:58:28,110 --> 00:58:31,770
her she's probably working in it
now. But the adults

981
00:58:33,150 --> 00:58:37,200
let's see there's a link to a
meat replacements meat

982
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:40,830
substitutes all look like they'd
enjoy some meat from time to

983
00:58:40,830 --> 00:58:41,340
time Don't

984
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:43,020
ya? Filming

985
00:58:47,010 --> 00:58:49,110
well let's pick a winner then.
Let's just get let's just do it

986
00:58:49,110 --> 00:58:49,950
just pick a winner

987
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:53,400
well you know I do like that the
girl that can't stand up she's

988
00:58:56,670 --> 00:59:05,760
Amy is so weak she can stand up
she can do sex we're gonna get

989
00:59:05,820 --> 00:59:09,960
an email now. Goodness,

990
00:59:10,230 --> 00:59:12,330
I mean I'd have to look there's
too many of them here you have

991
00:59:12,330 --> 00:59:14,250
to look at all their pictures
and these are all you know

992
00:59:14,250 --> 00:59:16,110
professionally taken
photographs. These girls could

993
00:59:16,110 --> 00:59:23,400
be homely as a mighty hand made
up of This is bull. Stuff is

994
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:26,160
ridiculous and there's male
contestants I didn't see that I

995
00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:30,330
haven't looked at them. Oh
brother. You might as well put

996
00:59:30,330 --> 00:59:36,420
it look at look at Monte where's
this one's gonna get you

997
00:59:37,980 --> 00:59:45,510
man Montes in what month is
built Monte got Monte may not

998
00:59:45,540 --> 00:59:47,640
eat meat but he's he's
definitely caring.

999
00:59:47,669 --> 00:59:56,219
I know what I'm saying. I'm
sorry. Okay, enough of this.

1000
00:59:56,459 --> 00:59:59,189
Already. It just brings out the
bad side of me letting me add

1001
00:59:59,189 --> 00:59:59,969
live about this

1002
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:01,890
Do you care with this little
white puppy?

1003
01:00:02,970 --> 01:00:06,510
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's another
one. I can guarantee none of

1004
01:00:06,510 --> 01:00:10,170
these guys that are on this one
are care about much about the

1005
01:00:10,170 --> 01:00:14,130
female contestants. Let's put it
that way. Hmm. Which is okay.

1006
01:00:14,250 --> 01:00:16,590
You know that's you're
generalizing Matt. No, I think

1007
01:00:16,590 --> 01:00:17,100
you're right.

1008
01:00:17,879 --> 01:00:22,559
So why don't just look for
yourself. Oh, so anyway, by the

1009
01:00:22,559 --> 01:00:25,919
way, I was bitching about the
CNBC thing I have to recall

1010
01:00:25,919 --> 01:00:27,689
because they black, I'm telling
you, this video is worth

1011
01:00:27,689 --> 01:00:29,969
watching, because they bring up
every buddy what they said. And

1012
01:00:29,969 --> 01:00:33,209
then what happened in a very
different way than the Daily

1013
01:00:33,209 --> 01:00:36,959
Show usually does. I mean, it
really apparently put a lot of

1014
01:00:36,959 --> 01:00:40,379
work into this. But I remember
when I was in New York last

1015
01:00:40,379 --> 01:00:43,379
year, I was, while I was up
earlier than usual, I got to

1016
01:00:43,379 --> 01:00:46,769
watch that early show on the
CNBC where this this guy came

1017
01:00:46,769 --> 01:00:50,459
out with this, this is before
the all the crashes. And he this

1018
01:00:50,459 --> 01:00:53,099
guy came on the show who had
just finished a book on how

1019
01:00:53,099 --> 01:00:56,519
Lehman Brothers was obviously
gonna go out of business. And

1020
01:00:56,519 --> 01:01:02,069
they just rake this guy over the
coals for even suggesting

1021
01:01:02,069 --> 01:01:05,069
anything about this great
company, Lehman Brothers. And he

1022
01:01:05,069 --> 01:01:07,589
said, What makes you think that
any of these assertions of yours

1023
01:01:07,589 --> 01:01:10,289
are true, and they were just
pounding him? And he's kept

1024
01:01:10,289 --> 01:01:12,059
pointing at one number? He said,
Well, you know, if they can

1025
01:01:12,059 --> 01:01:15,059
explain what this number is, I
wouldn't even write this book.

1026
01:01:15,059 --> 01:01:17,429
But I've asked and asked, and so
nobody can explain. There's his

1027
01:01:17,429 --> 01:01:20,009
number, you know, in this column
here, and they these numbers

1028
01:01:20,009 --> 01:01:22,859
don't make any sense. And they
don't what do they refer to? And

1029
01:01:22,859 --> 01:01:25,559
it was obviously some, you know,
some something to balance the

1030
01:01:25,559 --> 01:01:27,689
books, right. And they could
never come up with anything. But

1031
01:01:27,689 --> 01:01:30,239
every but it was still they saw
that in the way they attack this

1032
01:01:30,239 --> 01:01:32,849
guy. And the fact that he had
come up with stuff, and we're

1033
01:01:32,849 --> 01:01:35,369
already starting to see, you
know, the oil scam, and some of

1034
01:01:35,369 --> 01:01:38,819
this other stuff get revealed. I
got pretty suspicious.

1035
01:01:39,450 --> 01:01:43,800
Well, that oil scam is really
working boy, I'll tell you. The

1036
01:01:43,830 --> 01:01:47,730
downward scam keeping it below
50 bucks. That is really that is

1037
01:01:47,730 --> 01:01:51,540
just Venezuela is now there's
all kinds of crap going on

1038
01:01:51,540 --> 01:01:54,240
there. Because, you know, when
you when you build your

1039
01:01:54,240 --> 01:02:02,070
business, ie your country on 140
or $150 $1 per barrel oil, you

1040
01:02:02,070 --> 01:02:05,460
know, your plans have to change
pretty drastically when your

1041
01:02:05,460 --> 01:02:12,780
income is knocked down by 60%.
Yeah. And have you been

1042
01:02:12,780 --> 01:02:15,090
following the way you've been
following Venezuela?

1043
01:02:17,100 --> 01:02:19,950
Well, Venezuela, I didn't know I
had that. I had that special I

1044
01:02:19,950 --> 01:02:23,130
recorded for you on Cesar Chavez
that frontline did, by the way,

1045
01:02:23,130 --> 01:02:25,350
which is one of the best things
if you anybody out there can

1046
01:02:25,350 --> 01:02:29,250
find this. Cesar Chavez special
on frontline is one of the most

1047
01:02:29,250 --> 01:02:32,520
fascinating things I've ever
done. But no, Venezuela has got

1048
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:34,440
all kinds of problems. And it's
you know, and of course, we're

1049
01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:36,570
putting the screws to them. And
then of course, they got this,

1050
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:39,510
there was just a special on I
think it was 60 minutes or

1051
01:02:39,510 --> 01:02:43,110
something over the weekend where
the this guy Morales, who's the

1052
01:02:43,110 --> 01:02:47,370
Indian coca farmer, that's the
head of you know, Bolivia, who

1053
01:02:47,370 --> 01:02:51,270
basically told us to get their
DEA guys out of the country, you

1054
01:02:51,270 --> 01:02:55,200
know, people here in the Andes,
we chew coca leaves, and we

1055
01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:55,890
can't have these,

1056
01:02:55,920 --> 01:02:59,190
we just line up and buy it like
everybody else and stop bringing

1057
01:02:59,190 --> 01:03:02,790
in your own shipments. You don't
transport.

1058
01:03:03,180 --> 01:03:05,820
So they went to you know, so
they this has become a big

1059
01:03:05,820 --> 01:03:08,580
problem. And of course, the
Cesar Chavez supports this guy.

1060
01:03:08,580 --> 01:03:11,130
And he's kind of, you know,
trying to get him to become a

1061
01:03:11,130 --> 01:03:15,570
communist. And it's very
interesting situation in South

1062
01:03:15,570 --> 01:03:18,720
America with these guys. By the
way, the coca thing that you

1063
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:23,070
know, you can get coca leaves
are a common thing, people chew

1064
01:03:23,100 --> 01:03:28,770
and make tea. In both Peru and
Bolivia and other South American

1065
01:03:28,770 --> 01:03:31,200
countries in the world. You have
high altitudes because it's

1066
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:35,910
actually it's a combination of
chemicals and these leaves that

1067
01:03:35,940 --> 01:03:41,730
give you enough stamina. It
doesn't give you a buzz. I've

1068
01:03:41,730 --> 01:03:45,870
chewed these things. It but it
gives you a lot. I was I'm up at

1069
01:03:45,870 --> 01:03:49,350
14,000 feet in the, in the Andes
in this little town with a bunch

1070
01:03:49,350 --> 01:03:50,850
of guys who were floating
around.

1071
01:03:52,590 --> 01:03:56,220
Back it up, set the stage. What
were you at this time? Chemist?

1072
01:03:56,640 --> 01:04:01,080
No, no, no. Like a couple years
ago, I was the guy who's runs a

1073
01:04:01,410 --> 01:04:04,860
company that got bought by well
to goes to phone that got bought

1074
01:04:04,860 --> 01:04:08,850
by National Geographic that
sells indigenous peoples

1075
01:04:09,180 --> 01:04:10,050
artifacts.

1076
01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:13,950
They're ripped off shit. Yeah.
That's actually the children

1077
01:04:13,950 --> 01:04:15,720
pretty good press hold. Let me
kill this call. Yeah,

1078
01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:19,380
go ahead. You take that call. In
the meantime, we'll play a

1079
01:04:19,380 --> 01:04:21,810
little bit of music here on that
no agenda. We're waiting for

1080
01:04:21,810 --> 01:04:23,820
John C. Dvorak to come back.

1081
01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:28,470
So anyway, so. So they invited
us up to go to Peru and go into

1082
01:04:28,470 --> 01:04:31,860
the Andes and visit some of
these rock makers. So we're in

1083
01:04:31,860 --> 01:04:36,270
this one town, which is just up
there. And it means support yet

1084
01:04:36,270 --> 01:04:40,020
to take some air sickness pills,
and we drank a lot of coca leaf

1085
01:04:40,020 --> 01:04:43,260
tea. And then we got up there
and then you find these old

1086
01:04:43,260 --> 01:04:46,530
farts who had a bags of these
leaves and you chew on him. And

1087
01:04:46,530 --> 01:04:48,150
then you can wander around
because it's pretty, it's

1088
01:04:48,150 --> 01:04:51,420
tiresome to watch, because we're
not only at high altitudes, but

1089
01:04:51,450 --> 01:04:53,250
we're going up and down hills.
It's

1090
01:04:53,250 --> 01:04:55,560
like sucking on a Red Bull
continuously.

1091
01:04:56,700 --> 01:05:00,480
Anyway, it's terrible. And so
I'm like the oldest guy in this

1092
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:08,490
group I was 30 noms whatever it
is a bunch of these young people

1093
01:05:08,490 --> 01:05:10,650
that were with the group and
there's different ages but let's

1094
01:05:10,650 --> 01:05:13,590
just say that I was the oldest
of the group and these young

1095
01:05:13,590 --> 01:05:16,860
people a couple of them were now
now I don't want to choose to

1096
01:05:16,860 --> 01:05:20,760
leave because you know it's like
I think it's bad are they I

1097
01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:25,680
don't know why I don't want to
get hooked on the leaf man and

1098
01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:30,090
so so it was so funny to what
you know once you had enough you

1099
01:05:30,090 --> 01:05:32,730
know you've been chewing on
stuff enough you just wander

1100
01:05:32,730 --> 01:05:35,190
around it's pretty normal you're
still a little winded but it's

1101
01:05:35,190 --> 01:05:40,020
not too bad but it's something
hilarious about walking past on

1102
01:05:40,020 --> 01:05:44,460
the way back to the you know are
right back down the mountain

1103
01:05:44,940 --> 01:05:47,940
walking past two or three of
these guys who refuse to chew

1104
01:05:47,940 --> 01:05:52,470
the leaves bent over holding you
know with their with their hands

1105
01:05:52,470 --> 01:05:57,210
on their knees oh yeah they're
out of brass yeah unable to move

1106
01:05:57,210 --> 01:05:59,250
walking downhill they can't do
it

1107
01:06:04,470 --> 01:06:06,450
and I walk right past one of
them I said I told you you

1108
01:06:06,450 --> 01:06:07,590
should have chewed the leaves

1109
01:06:07,709 --> 01:06:10,649
have you ever tried to have no
problem? We were tried Viagra

1110
01:06:11,519 --> 01:06:13,229
No, me neither.

1111
01:06:13,709 --> 01:06:16,709
No want to have immediate causes
you know it did get you

1112
01:06:16,709 --> 01:06:18,749
increases your blood pressure
it's not I don't think doesn't

1113
01:06:18,749 --> 01:06:25,619
sound like a healthy product no
but the leaves anyway so the

1114
01:06:25,619 --> 01:06:30,269
leaves are no big deal. I like
to fly Yeah, you'd like the

1115
01:06:30,299 --> 01:06:33,479
herbs but anyway the leaves are
no big deal and they you know

1116
01:06:33,479 --> 01:06:37,019
the tea is tasty and you know I
don't guys did but don't know

1117
01:06:37,019 --> 01:06:39,809
used to actually be legally in
United States to sell coca leaf

1118
01:06:39,809 --> 01:06:44,189
tea. Until I think it was the
Reagan administration. Somebody

1119
01:06:44,189 --> 01:06:47,519
with a hair up there. Oh, no,
you can't do that. I mean, if

1120
01:06:47,519 --> 01:06:51,059
there's actually extracting
cocaine from a bag of coca leaf

1121
01:06:51,089 --> 01:06:53,489
Hey, you would not get a
crystal?

1122
01:06:53,850 --> 01:06:54,330
No

1123
01:06:57,690 --> 01:07:00,540
no, I just have a I just think
is ridiculous. We our drug laws

1124
01:07:00,540 --> 01:07:03,090
are stupid. And we should
legalize marijuana. I'm a

1125
01:07:03,090 --> 01:07:05,400
libertarian 100% of the way on
this.

1126
01:07:05,910 --> 01:07:08,070
Yeah, but it's not gonna happen.
We went through that last week.

1127
01:07:08,070 --> 01:07:10,410
It's not going to happen. It
would completely ruin the

1128
01:07:10,410 --> 01:07:10,800
business.

1129
01:07:10,890 --> 01:07:13,980
Your rationale for it is because
the government's in bed with the

1130
01:07:13,980 --> 01:07:16,920
drug dealers who are all
splitting the money.

1131
01:07:16,950 --> 01:07:21,000
Yes, I guarantee you marijuana
will never be legal in in any of

1132
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:26,100
the United States. Unless they
declare independence from from

1133
01:07:26,100 --> 01:07:30,330
the Union. He will not be legal,
it just won't happen. It will

1134
01:07:30,330 --> 01:07:30,990
not happen.

1135
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:38,160
The way I see it, everybody who
smokes dope now has a supply.

1136
01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:40,860
They get their dope. I mean,
Mendocino County price applies

1137
01:07:40,860 --> 01:07:44,640
most of it. And it's not less
like if they legalize it that

1138
01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:48,720
all of a sudden, the body's
really specious argument that

1139
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,060
came up the other day, and when
legalizing it all of a sudden is

1140
01:07:51,060 --> 01:07:54,060
not going to increase anybody
using it. I mean, I'm not going

1141
01:07:54,060 --> 01:07:57,660
to start smoking dope, because
it's illegal. I don't care for

1142
01:07:57,660 --> 01:08:00,840
it. But here's what here's the
argument the guys say, oh, you

1143
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:02,940
know, this is a bogus argument
that they're gonna get all these

1144
01:08:02,940 --> 01:08:05,550
tax dollars and one of these
right wing talk show guys it's a

1145
01:08:05,550 --> 01:08:08,670
bogus argument because you know,
as well as I do that once it's

1146
01:08:08,670 --> 01:08:12,540
legalized, the prices will
plummet and the and then the tax

1147
01:08:12,540 --> 01:08:15,600
there won't be any tax dollars
because it won't cost much if

1148
01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:19,470
you tax it by the pound as a
fixed rate what difference does

1149
01:08:19,470 --> 01:08:22,290
it make what the base price is
it's still going to get the tax

1150
01:08:22,290 --> 01:08:25,200
money what kind of what kind of
math is this that these people

1151
01:08:25,200 --> 01:08:28,440
come up with this is just make
some horrible argument or some

1152
01:08:28,470 --> 01:08:31,740
bullshit argument that you know,
those guys may tax money because

1153
01:08:31,740 --> 01:08:36,120
the price is gonna go down is
nuts. It's crazy. Anyway, sorry.

1154
01:08:37,980 --> 01:08:43,140
Any they just do not understand
the Republican Party? Right

1155
01:08:43,140 --> 01:08:47,640
wing? That's that's for personal
responsibility, less government

1156
01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:50,070
in your life and all this other
stuff. And then they want to

1157
01:08:50,070 --> 01:08:54,660
don't government in your life?
Yeah. I wish somebody explained

1158
01:08:54,660 --> 01:08:56,670
as always for the good of the
public Bull.

1159
01:08:58,050 --> 01:09:00,660
I watched the show on Monday.
They by the

1160
01:09:00,660 --> 01:09:03,390
way, marijuana used to be legal
in this country, it was used a

1161
01:09:03,390 --> 01:09:04,770
lot less when it was

1162
01:09:08,430 --> 01:09:12,810
I was watching the show on
Monday, called over here in the

1163
01:09:12,810 --> 01:09:17,100
UK. I think it was the war of
the bins. And it was a

1164
01:09:17,100 --> 01:09:22,860
fascinating program. The the
municipalities that councils in

1165
01:09:22,890 --> 01:09:26,910
throughout the United Kingdom
have such an incredible amount

1166
01:09:26,910 --> 01:09:32,280
of power and control over the
subjects of England, that most

1167
01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:37,740
places now have counted them for
individual garbage bins, they

1168
01:09:37,740 --> 01:09:45,810
must fill appropriately for
trash removal. And this I think

1169
01:09:45,810 --> 01:09:48,810
we talked about it last week or
the week before that there's

1170
01:09:48,810 --> 01:09:51,390
already been all you know, these
councils are cutting back and in

1171
01:09:51,390 --> 01:09:54,030
some cases, they're not picking
they're only picking up garbage

1172
01:09:54,030 --> 01:09:59,970
every 14 days. 14 days. Okay.
verot but they now they're in

1173
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:03,780
schools teaching kids which crap
goes into which bin and there's

1174
01:10:03,780 --> 01:10:06,750
four of them there's a red one,
a green one, a blue one and a

1175
01:10:06,750 --> 01:10:11,340
black one. And it's it's amazing
they will leave your bin if

1176
01:10:11,340 --> 01:10:14,610
there's one thing in there
that's wrong they leave it and

1177
01:10:14,610 --> 01:10:17,010
then you get fined they've got
you know there was showing these

1178
01:10:17,010 --> 01:10:19,860
inspectors walking around
looking at people's garbage

1179
01:10:19,860 --> 01:10:21,960
cans. They've got the wrong
thing and then I'm gonna have to

1180
01:10:21,960 --> 01:10:26,280
write them up. And to make
people recycle this is the

1181
01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:28,860
kicker. So in this one
municipality, where they have

1182
01:10:28,860 --> 01:10:33,450
two bins one is for recyclable
and one is for trash. They cut

1183
01:10:33,480 --> 01:10:38,310
the trash one in half by size
and gave everyone a new bin.

1184
01:10:38,700 --> 01:10:41,220
Okay, this is now half as big
which means you have to recycle

1185
01:10:41,220 --> 01:10:48,330
more I guess. They're completely
terrorizing people with these

1186
01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:51,900
ugly ass plastic bins that are
throughout the entire country.

1187
01:10:52,260 --> 01:10:55,620
There's not a single street that
doesn't have colored bins out in

1188
01:10:55,620 --> 01:10:58,980
front and the forcing people to

1189
01:11:01,560 --> 01:11:05,340
well, okay, well let's go we can
talk about what we have the bins

1190
01:11:05,340 --> 01:11:08,100
here too but we don't have
depends on the community. Like

1191
01:11:08,100 --> 01:11:10,860
for example, in Berkeley they
have a similar situation that

1192
01:11:10,860 --> 01:11:13,890
you're talking about with all
these you know, not necessarily

1193
01:11:13,890 --> 01:11:17,040
inspectors but if they find that
you've put a bottle for example

1194
01:11:17,040 --> 01:11:20,370
in your garbage instead of in
the bottle bin, which you've

1195
01:11:20,370 --> 01:11:23,490
already paid by the way for you
have to pay like an extra nickel

1196
01:11:23,490 --> 01:11:26,460
or a dime because of the bottle
bill that was passed in

1197
01:11:26,460 --> 01:11:27,360
California years

1198
01:11:27,360 --> 01:11:30,870
ago. And those guys they pick it
up and they go sell it right

1199
01:11:30,900 --> 01:11:32,640
they they sell it to the glass
guys.

1200
01:11:33,030 --> 01:11:35,790
Yeah, but the funny here's the
here's the irony of the whole

1201
01:11:35,790 --> 01:11:39,390
thing. Because I used to be an
air pollution inspector and one

1202
01:11:39,390 --> 01:11:42,390
of the places I inspected was
the glass companies there's a

1203
01:11:42,390 --> 01:11:45,900
thing called call a call it it's
a disability it's the busted up

1204
01:11:45,900 --> 01:11:49,200
old bottles from that get
recycled into the glass stained

1205
01:11:49,230 --> 01:11:55,170
glass businesses always from day
one big time into recycled glass

1206
01:11:55,170 --> 01:11:58,410
they would did it bring tons of
this stuff in and people would

1207
01:11:58,410 --> 01:12:01,320
you'd like collected and there
was no reason to charges extra

1208
01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:04,830
nickel which amounts to being a
tax on this bottle every time

1209
01:12:04,830 --> 01:12:07,890
you buy anything. Now there's a
plastic, even a plastic bottle,

1210
01:12:07,890 --> 01:12:11,280
you buy a new bottle of
sparkling water, and you go

1211
01:12:11,280 --> 01:12:14,790
through the register as the
price and plus a CR V are such

1212
01:12:14,790 --> 01:12:20,400
something recycled nickel, just
another nickel or a dime. And

1213
01:12:21,090 --> 01:12:23,250
I've always seen every time one
of these guys comes as the

1214
01:12:23,250 --> 01:12:27,270
company this this community
organizing group in California

1215
01:12:27,270 --> 01:12:32,250
called Cal perg that was
responsible for this rip off and

1216
01:12:32,250 --> 01:12:33,990
every time one of them comes
around because they're always

1217
01:12:33,990 --> 01:12:36,480
doing something about you know,
there's they've always got some

1218
01:12:36,480 --> 01:12:40,140
little thing they want to do
about now it's about green or

1219
01:12:40,140 --> 01:12:43,140
about global warming they
there's a couple of them around

1220
01:12:43,140 --> 01:12:45,240
the office, by the way in San
Francisco has stopped you for

1221
01:12:45,240 --> 01:12:48,870
global warming. They want you to
sign a petition new which I

1222
01:12:48,870 --> 01:12:51,960
always I don't I refuse to sign
all petitions of court and so

1223
01:12:52,980 --> 01:12:55,530
every time they come around I
read them the riot act about

1224
01:12:55,530 --> 01:12:58,140
this, you know, I mean, it's
just ridiculous. And there's

1225
01:12:58,140 --> 01:13:00,420
other things that they do that
are just counterproductive. I

1226
01:13:00,420 --> 01:13:03,420
mean, this in any way Burke has
got the same kind of been thing.

1227
01:13:03,420 --> 01:13:06,780
We have a system in Albany,
which is probably okay, we have

1228
01:13:06,780 --> 01:13:11,730
three bins. But what do we you
can own as many garbage bins as

1229
01:13:11,730 --> 01:13:14,370
you want to pay for. So if
you're a real garbage I know

1230
01:13:14,370 --> 01:13:17,370
these are the Rs are government
issued man? Yeah, well, these

1231
01:13:17,370 --> 01:13:20,010
are issued by the garbage
company. And so you get if you

1232
01:13:20,010 --> 01:13:22,770
want to garbage bins, find it
you can get to and then they

1233
01:13:22,770 --> 01:13:27,780
give you free a grey bin for
recyclables and they let you mix

1234
01:13:27,780 --> 01:13:31,170
them that you could put
cardboard in with glass with

1235
01:13:31,889 --> 01:13:35,879
paper with right can you can't
they sort that out at the best

1236
01:13:35,879 --> 01:13:36,299
they can.

1237
01:13:36,300 --> 01:13:39,390
That's the point they sorted out
at the other end. And then they

1238
01:13:39,390 --> 01:13:42,240
have a green bin for if you have
a bunch of you know scraps from

1239
01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:44,490
the yard, you want to pick up
your leaves and put them in

1240
01:13:44,490 --> 01:13:46,920
there. So then it's all comes
with a machine that you know is

1241
01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:49,650
basically this giant truck with
a big arms that grabs and stuff

1242
01:13:49,650 --> 01:13:51,960
and throws it in there though
they don't even look at it. You

1243
01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:55,020
could you know if you could mix
it up, and I throw bottles away

1244
01:13:55,050 --> 01:13:58,770
occasionally into the regular
garbage. Nobody cares here. But

1245
01:13:58,770 --> 01:14:01,560
in Berkeley Oh, it's terrible.
And in San Francisco, they got

1246
01:14:01,590 --> 01:14:04,350
close to the San Diego this kind
of same thing going on there in

1247
01:14:04,350 --> 01:14:06,930
San Francisco like they do in
parts of England. And the fact

1248
01:14:06,930 --> 01:14:09,210
that the public puts up with
this is ridiculous. Thank you

1249
01:14:09,240 --> 01:14:10,320
that would be my

1250
01:14:10,950 --> 01:14:12,930
long road to the point Yeah,

1251
01:14:13,379 --> 01:14:15,929
but it was kind of it was weird
man watching these kids in the

1252
01:14:15,929 --> 01:14:19,619
classroom learning about global
warming and okay what in which

1253
01:14:19,619 --> 01:14:22,769
Ben does this go on? And I can I
mean, you just fucking charge

1254
01:14:22,769 --> 01:14:26,519
enough these batteries to go to
work for you aren't you? In New

1255
01:14:26,519 --> 01:14:29,579
Jersey, and we had great they
came twice a week in New Jersey.

1256
01:14:30,269 --> 01:14:34,019
Trash from that binmen in New
Jersey. Hey Adam, how you doing?

1257
01:14:34,019 --> 01:14:37,079
I have a body you got a dead
body that no problem. We'll

1258
01:14:37,079 --> 01:14:42,209
throw that into when the mob
runs trash the shit works you

1259
01:14:42,209 --> 01:14:42,899
know what I'm saying?

1260
01:14:43,380 --> 01:14:46,140
Well, you know what's what's
what annoys me and we need to

1261
01:14:46,140 --> 01:14:49,650
get down to the basics of this
thing going on over there and in

1262
01:14:49,650 --> 01:14:52,260
Berkeley in San Francisco
similar is that they're

1263
01:14:52,260 --> 01:14:57,060
essentially having the public do
their job. Yeah. Well, Patricia,

1264
01:14:58,350 --> 01:15:00,900
from that from this, you got to
do all this sorting and sorting

1265
01:15:00,900 --> 01:15:04,530
and sorting of the garbage You
never used to have to do you're

1266
01:15:04,530 --> 01:15:07,500
basically doing somebody else's
job this is like

1267
01:15:07,740 --> 01:15:11,550
they Trisha had a really good
idea she said well if if those

1268
01:15:11,580 --> 01:15:14,820
if the bin min collects it let's
just talk about recyclables if

1269
01:15:14,820 --> 01:15:17,880
the bin men collect those and
all they do is they they take

1270
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:20,790
them and you've sorted them for
them indeed, and then they go

1271
01:15:20,790 --> 01:15:24,270
sell the glass and they go sell
the plastic and whatever else

1272
01:15:24,570 --> 01:15:29,100
can be sold to wouldn't it be if
you just started here on where

1273
01:15:29,100 --> 01:15:33,300
we live on our square? And if we
all collected it ourselves and

1274
01:15:33,300 --> 01:15:35,430
then we brought it in then we
split the money or you know or

1275
01:15:35,430 --> 01:15:37,800
we put a playground and or
something like that? I mean,

1276
01:15:37,830 --> 01:15:40,050
would we have to have a
tremendous amount of recyclables

1277
01:15:40,050 --> 01:15:41,970
to actually make some money
because I think people would be

1278
01:15:41,970 --> 01:15:44,940
motivated to do it then now it's
you know, like you're a little

1279
01:15:44,940 --> 01:15:48,390
child and you're being scolded
and you're not doing it right

1280
01:15:48,390 --> 01:15:50,460
you don't have to and you have
to use the government issued

1281
01:15:50,490 --> 01:15:53,970
trash bag. And if you don't get
cardboard boxes, you have to cut

1282
01:15:53,970 --> 01:15:57,390
up the cardboard box and then
put the cut up slivers into the

1283
01:15:57,420 --> 01:16:02,340
orange plastic bag, otherwise
they won't take it away. I hate

1284
01:16:02,340 --> 01:16:05,250
this. The only boxes I had after
we moved

1285
01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:07,410
probably more than two

1286
01:16:07,740 --> 01:16:12,360
and it'd be cut into slivers to
fit in the bag. Is it possible

1287
01:16:12,360 --> 01:16:16,350
can you make money with you? No,
no no at 50 families

1288
01:16:16,770 --> 01:16:19,680
you know you can burn your
cardboard is one of the greatest

1289
01:16:19,890 --> 01:16:21,030
cans that burn

1290
01:16:21,060 --> 01:16:25,410
anything in in in the City of
London. Are you crazy? Can't

1291
01:16:25,410 --> 01:16:26,280
start a fire

1292
01:16:28,050 --> 01:16:29,790
Do you have a fireplace in your
house don't you?

1293
01:16:30,150 --> 01:16:33,720
Yep not allowed to burn anything
in it? What good is it? Well

1294
01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:40,380
it's no good no good. Have you
heard about

1295
01:16:41,010 --> 01:16:42,300
more this is depressing.

1296
01:16:42,570 --> 01:16:46,680
Now let's move on to something
else then. This will be up your

1297
01:16:46,680 --> 01:16:50,700
alley because you know a lot
about illness. Or you know what

1298
01:16:50,910 --> 01:16:52,080
are you familiar with?

1299
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:55,140
What does that come from? You
all you know

1300
01:16:55,140 --> 01:17:01,470
all about illness and sickness
and cocoa leaves Morgellons

1301
01:17:02,670 --> 01:17:04,950
make sure you hit you have no
idea how many people are jealous

1302
01:17:04,950 --> 01:17:07,470
of the fact that I got to go up
into the Andes and chew coca

1303
01:17:07,470 --> 01:17:08,190
leaves. No,

1304
01:17:08,190 --> 01:17:13,440
I think it's fantastic. send me
pictures. Yeah, screw it. Are

1305
01:17:13,440 --> 01:17:14,820
you familiar with Morgellons?

1306
01:17:16,410 --> 01:17:18,150
I never heard of it Morgellons

1307
01:17:19,290 --> 01:17:21,720
and this is doing the rounds
this story so I don't know

1308
01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:27,690
anything about it is a multi
dimensional disease it's called

1309
01:17:27,690 --> 01:17:28,920
have no idea what that is.

1310
01:17:29,100 --> 01:17:31,920
starts immediately going into
the third dimension the aliens

1311
01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:33,480
own you. Starts

1312
01:17:33,480 --> 01:17:36,990
with relentless itching,
stinging or biting sensations.

1313
01:17:36,990 --> 01:17:39,990
Cotton like balls may appear on
the body with no reasonable

1314
01:17:39,990 --> 01:17:43,530
explanation soon skin rash
develops along with lesions that

1315
01:17:43,530 --> 01:17:48,510
may not heal that will not heal.
Many sufferers reports during

1316
01:17:48,510 --> 01:17:51,510
like fibers of varying color
popping out through the skin

1317
01:17:51,510 --> 01:17:56,010
lesions. fibers can be black,
white, red or even iridescent

1318
01:17:56,010 --> 01:17:59,760
blue. Others report black specks
falling from their bodies that

1319
01:17:59,760 --> 01:18:03,120
literally like spontaneous human
combustion is eventually a

1320
01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:06,150
variety of bugs and worms begins
to find their way out of the

1321
01:18:06,150 --> 01:18:10,950
body through the lesions that
are reading this from natural

1322
01:18:10,950 --> 01:18:14,730
news.com Of course. Other
accompanying symptoms include

1323
01:18:14,730 --> 01:18:18,150
hair loss, debilitating and
chronic fatigue hard nodules

1324
01:18:18,150 --> 01:18:22,020
beneath the skin and joint pain.
Oh no. The door my joint to

1325
01:18:22,020 --> 01:18:26,640
hurt. But this is apparently
contagious and it's frightening

1326
01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:29,370
and two big story.

1327
01:18:29,820 --> 01:18:34,110
It's okay, so this thing
scrapped up in 2002. The name

1328
01:18:34,110 --> 01:18:40,530
given in 2002 by Mary Lutz how
to a proposed condition. It's

1329
01:18:40,530 --> 01:18:43,200
not a new disorder but a new and
misleading name for known

1330
01:18:43,200 --> 01:18:45,960
illnesses however, no consensus
but I'm reading this from the

1331
01:18:45,960 --> 01:18:47,580
great Wikipedia while in

1332
01:18:47,580 --> 01:18:51,480
April 2006. The Center for
Disease Control recommended an

1333
01:18:51,510 --> 01:18:56,220
epidemic epidemiological me
illogical epidemiological

1334
01:18:56,220 --> 01:19:00,570
investigation of what they were
then referring to as a public

1335
01:19:00,570 --> 01:19:04,380
health concern in January 2008.
They announced a grant to

1336
01:19:04,380 --> 01:19:08,910
healthcare giant Kaiser
Permanente to test an interview

1337
01:19:08,910 --> 01:19:17,940
150 to 500 patients. Now they're
on it. Huh? Now, of course is

1338
01:19:17,940 --> 01:19:21,030
the GMO link. Typical.

1339
01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:27,690
This is interesting, and the CDC
opened a website on unexplained

1340
01:19:28,290 --> 01:19:33,570
thermography aka Magellan
announced an investigation

1341
01:19:33,570 --> 01:19:37,410
process. That's what I was just
talking about. Yes, symptoms and

1342
01:19:37,410 --> 01:19:46,230
diagnosis, blah blah. Okay,
doctor. granules are crystals

1343
01:19:46,230 --> 01:19:49,320
that appear under the skin as
crazy sounds like something from

1344
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:50,460
the X Files.

1345
01:19:52,140 --> 01:19:57,720
Well, on the page I'm reading
here, saying that there's a link

1346
01:19:57,720 --> 01:20:04,050
to genetically modified food
That makes love that. Doesn't

1347
01:20:04,050 --> 01:20:05,040
that make sense?

1348
01:20:06,150 --> 01:20:10,200
That's a good one. They saying
it's a new name for an old

1349
01:20:10,200 --> 01:20:14,490
condition delusional
parasitosis. Wow. Which is I got

1350
01:20:14,490 --> 01:20:18,810
to the heart of that at least.
Well, you can understand just

1351
01:20:18,810 --> 01:20:21,780
from the name of it you can tell
it's a psychological illness

1352
01:20:21,780 --> 01:20:24,660
where people imagine these crazy
things happening to them.

1353
01:20:27,270 --> 01:20:29,220
So you say okay, so it's not
really happening.

1354
01:20:30,450 --> 01:20:32,730
Well, I mean, that's what they
say. Some cases of delusional

1355
01:20:32,730 --> 01:20:35,670
parasitosis have organic causes
other than those associated with

1356
01:20:35,670 --> 01:20:39,750
neuro neurological psychological
conditions of unknown etiology.

1357
01:20:39,750 --> 01:20:44,160
For example, fornication, oh,
I'm sorry for vacation. The

1358
01:20:44,160 --> 01:20:47,850
sensation that that's a funny
interesting word for vacation.

1359
01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:51,600
The sensation that bugs are
crawling under one's skin,

1360
01:20:52,650 --> 01:20:56,850
caused by allergies, diabetic
neuropathy, menopause, skin

1361
01:20:56,850 --> 01:21:03,990
cancer Demodex mites, or herpes
zoster. Both dementia and mental

1362
01:21:03,990 --> 01:21:09,510
retardation have been reported
in association with do p. Want

1363
01:21:09,510 --> 01:21:13,440
to do p and d? Okay. I don't
know. Do you see symptoms

1364
01:21:13,440 --> 01:21:16,050
associated with delusional
parasitosis? Maybe it's diluted

1365
01:21:16,050 --> 01:21:21,840
I don't know, including hives.
Unexplained tingling and itching

1366
01:21:21,870 --> 01:21:25,230
are common side effects and many
prescription drugs or drug abuse

1367
01:21:25,830 --> 01:21:28,800
sensations are real but the
attribution of course you that's

1368
01:21:28,800 --> 01:21:32,040
another reason to make drugs
illegal. The sensations are real

1369
01:21:32,040 --> 01:21:35,430
but these attribution of the
sensations to unknown parasites

1370
01:21:35,430 --> 01:21:39,540
in the collection of fibers is
part of the delusion

1371
01:21:40,349 --> 01:21:44,339
seven to nothing to be worried
about I guess. I wouldn't think

1372
01:21:44,339 --> 01:21:47,459
nothing to see move on people
nothing going on.

1373
01:21:48,090 --> 01:21:53,700
goes on and on is one of the
longest pieces it's a good one

1374
01:21:53,700 --> 01:21:58,290
though. I mean, I still think
that Mersa or the flesh eating

1375
01:21:58,290 --> 01:22:02,610
bacteria is a bigger threat to
public health and nobody seems

1376
01:22:02,610 --> 01:22:06,750
to you know really do much about
that is in gyms now a

1377
01:22:06,750 --> 01:22:09,750
professional athletes are
getting it friend of mines

1378
01:22:09,750 --> 01:22:14,340
almost dying from it. Just a
mess. You know, this is that

1379
01:22:14,970 --> 01:22:27,000
this? flesh eating bacteria gets
inside people. That's nasty. So

1380
01:22:27,000 --> 01:22:30,630
I got one more thing here, one
or two. So there's a bunch of

1381
01:22:30,630 --> 01:22:32,760
photos. The identity reason I
should have brought this up

1382
01:22:32,760 --> 01:22:37,710
earlier. There's a bunch of
photos on the net. I should have

1383
01:22:37,710 --> 01:22:39,810
brought up earlier because it
reminded me of the of the Gordon

1384
01:22:39,810 --> 01:22:41,790
Brown story. The fact he
couldn't talk to Gordon Brown.

1385
01:22:41,790 --> 01:22:46,050
But apparently Obama has no
problem spending time. At the

1386
01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:47,160
basketball game.

1387
01:22:47,190 --> 01:22:50,250
I saw I was drinking beer,
drinking beer. Well, there's

1388
01:22:50,250 --> 01:22:52,680
nothing wrong with that. Does
anyone have a real problem?

1389
01:22:52,680 --> 01:22:53,310
That's wrong. We've

1390
01:22:54,570 --> 01:22:57,090
got some guy coming to visit,
you know, you might want to take

1391
01:22:57,090 --> 01:22:58,230
him to the basketball game.

1392
01:22:59,100 --> 01:23:02,370
Yeah, that would have been nice.
I don't think he was actually

1393
01:23:02,370 --> 01:23:06,120
there, though, because he flew
in Tuesday afternoon, mid

1394
01:23:06,120 --> 01:23:08,310
afternoon. So that was the day
after the game.

1395
01:23:10,650 --> 01:23:13,020
I'm sure Obama can get tickets
for any game.

1396
01:23:14,280 --> 01:23:16,770
We got some crap brewing over
here and get mo nation nice

1397
01:23:16,770 --> 01:23:22,380
though, my friend. The Ukraine
cannot pay its gas bill. So

1398
01:23:22,380 --> 01:23:25,020
we're back to that shit. Do what
you just solved a couple of

1399
01:23:25,020 --> 01:23:31,350
weeks ago. Because they have to
pay Russia and state agents took

1400
01:23:31,350 --> 01:23:36,930
over the Ukrainian gas company.
So there's a flock of things

1401
01:23:36,930 --> 01:23:40,440
going on. And Latvia I think did
Latvia do an Iceland on us? Did

1402
01:23:40,440 --> 01:23:43,320
I hear about that? And I think I
heard on the BBC on the World

1403
01:23:43,320 --> 01:23:45,090
Service. I think Latvia,

1404
01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:48,870
did they? They went belly up. I
think the whole country.

1405
01:23:49,830 --> 01:23:56,670
Yeah. Well, you know, the UK is
next. Well, don't laugh. It's

1406
01:23:56,670 --> 01:24:01,710
absolutely going to happen the
car companies have now. In fact,

1407
01:24:01,710 --> 01:24:04,350
I think the Obama administration
told him to do this. They are

1408
01:24:04,350 --> 01:24:09,420
now knocking on the doors of the
European governments saying Help

1409
01:24:09,420 --> 01:24:12,240
us help us bail us out. You
know, we've got the Vauxhall and

1410
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:16,170
Opel and Jaguar and all these
other brands. And you know, if

1411
01:24:16,170 --> 01:24:18,300
you guys don't help us, we're
gonna we're gonna go belly up

1412
01:24:18,300 --> 01:24:21,540
what we put in at 40 billion
now, and everyone knew this shit

1413
01:24:21,540 --> 01:24:24,300
wasn't gonna work. Where's the
car czar? Is he supposed to say

1414
01:24:24,300 --> 01:24:27,480
something? It's at a point here.
GM is saying they're gonna be

1415
01:24:27,480 --> 01:24:32,040
out of business in a month.
Well, da we knew that was gonna

1416
01:24:32,040 --> 01:24:37,140
happen. How much more of this
insanity we have to look at and

1417
01:24:37,140 --> 01:24:37,980
witness

1418
01:24:39,150 --> 01:24:44,160
a lot. And believe me, it's good
for the show. Yeah, no,

1419
01:24:44,190 --> 01:24:46,740
it's fantastic for the show this
there's nine about the

1420
01:24:46,740 --> 01:24:52,200
show. By the way. I finally put
up the library link. I put the

1421
01:24:52,200 --> 01:24:55,770
library link. Actually, I think
that I think Grandma's gonna put

1422
01:24:55,770 --> 01:24:58,020
that up to you but I have a new
you know, if you go to

1423
01:24:58,020 --> 01:25:03,000
divorce.org/n A To help us out
here, so we have something to

1424
01:25:03,030 --> 01:25:06,360
fall back on in hard times so we
can continue to do the show

1425
01:25:06,360 --> 01:25:10,020
forever, and bring you
information you can't find

1426
01:25:10,050 --> 01:25:16,170
elsewhere. And you won't find
elsewhere by a lot. We need, you

1427
01:25:16,170 --> 01:25:20,130
know, donations to the show. And
we're getting, we're getting,

1428
01:25:20,190 --> 01:25:23,400
we're getting somewhere. We're
not nowhere near our goal now.

1429
01:25:24,030 --> 01:25:27,630
So the new divorce.org/na has
two other options because I've

1430
01:25:27,630 --> 01:25:29,820
got too many people Twitter me
saying, where's I just want to

1431
01:25:29,820 --> 01:25:32,880
play with for one year at a
time. I don't want to bucks on

1432
01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:33,180
mine.

1433
01:25:34,470 --> 01:25:37,440
There are people saying I want
to be on the board of directors,

1434
01:25:37,440 --> 01:25:40,080
I want to determine where the
money goes. Like. It's not one

1435
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:43,380
of those deals. Okay. Yeah, this
is this is our this is our

1436
01:25:43,500 --> 01:25:44,310
personal tarp.

1437
01:25:44,520 --> 01:25:48,120
Beyond the Board of Directors it
cost you $100,000

1438
01:25:48,420 --> 01:25:51,870
Yeah, that's right. You're on
the board. And you get to place

1439
01:25:51,870 --> 01:25:56,820
one story every show for a year.
Yes, for disinformation

1440
01:25:56,820 --> 01:25:58,920
purposes, whatever you want no
problem. Yeah,

1441
01:25:58,950 --> 01:26:01,500
that was you know, it's fine. We
can do to have a special little

1442
01:26:01,500 --> 01:26:04,290
jingle for it is information.
And

1443
01:26:09,510 --> 01:26:12,870
so we have the so we have
anyway, so I got the two new

1444
01:26:12,870 --> 01:26:18,180
links, I got the $24 a year. And
it also just whatever, you know,

1445
01:26:18,180 --> 01:26:22,740
just a donate some money.
button, which you can click on

1446
01:26:22,740 --> 01:26:23,160
and then you

1447
01:26:24,060 --> 01:26:26,670
could be whatever amount you
want, just boom, just donate

1448
01:26:26,670 --> 01:26:27,180
some money.

1449
01:26:27,750 --> 01:26:31,710
Right? If and if you want and
again, if the $100,000 would be

1450
01:26:31,770 --> 01:26:34,620
we'd get you you know, this this
segment.

1451
01:26:34,740 --> 01:26:39,630
And this is this is to the curry
Dvorak library slash winery.

1452
01:26:40,860 --> 01:26:43,050
Here adding a winery to it. Oh,
we

1453
01:26:43,050 --> 01:26:46,590
that's we need more donations,
so the winery will fit. You

1454
01:26:46,590 --> 01:26:46,830
know, the

1455
01:26:46,830 --> 01:26:50,010
idea of a winery is not a bad
one, by the way. Anyway, we're

1456
01:26:50,070 --> 01:26:53,820
asking you if you can do this,
please do it. dvorak.org/na. So

1457
01:26:53,820 --> 01:26:56,040
I don't have to keep doing this,
though. I'm gonna be doing it

1458
01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:58,770
for the next year. It looks like
because as with the it's not

1459
01:26:58,770 --> 01:27:02,670
going? Well, it's going fast.
But it's not going it was not

1460
01:27:02,670 --> 01:27:04,770
going that fast. We I mean, give
you if we were like, you know,

1461
01:27:04,770 --> 01:27:07,830
when Kevin Pollack and his
Twitter account went to 90,000.

1462
01:27:07,830 --> 01:27:10,620
People like instantly, yeah,
it'd be going faster. Who's

1463
01:27:10,620 --> 01:27:17,010
Kevin Paul? Anyway? He's a comic
comic, oh, yeah.org/in a

1464
01:27:17,010 --> 01:27:19,680
dvorak.org/anime. When you get
home, and you're listening to

1465
01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:23,070
this in your car, you know, try
to do can help us out. Now,

1466
01:27:23,400 --> 01:27:27,510
before you do that question
about Twitter. You know, would

1467
01:27:27,510 --> 01:27:30,780
it be crazy if we just set up
our own Twitter? You know, Leo

1468
01:27:30,780 --> 01:27:32,430
has that the twit army thing?

1469
01:27:32,849 --> 01:27:34,949
It's going nowhere? Well, we

1470
01:27:34,950 --> 01:27:39,180
need to go nowhere. I mean, the
whole idea people are used to

1471
01:27:39,180 --> 01:27:41,760
using that type of system. I
think it could grow. But you

1472
01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:44,730
know, at least we would it would
be a very closed system of stuff

1473
01:27:44,730 --> 01:27:47,370
that we're interested in. And it
would be a lot less than a

1474
01:27:47,370 --> 01:27:49,290
better signal to noise ratio.

1475
01:27:49,530 --> 01:27:52,590
Well, maybe we could do a closed
system like that just for the

1476
01:27:52,620 --> 01:27:56,460
for our subscribers for donor
donors, donors, donors, donors,

1477
01:27:56,490 --> 01:27:57,300
donors.

1478
01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:00,090
Well, we'll talk about that,

1479
01:28:00,240 --> 01:28:02,520
because we do have to add some
value added at some point, we'll

1480
01:28:02,520 --> 01:28:05,520
do that when we get enough. And
that would be kind of cool,

1481
01:28:05,520 --> 01:28:08,010
because then they have a closed
loop that would be easier to

1482
01:28:08,010 --> 01:28:10,410
deal with than just a massive,
wide open thing that we're

1483
01:28:10,410 --> 01:28:10,830
doing.

1484
01:28:10,980 --> 01:28:16,590
I'll look at I'll look into that
tweet army thing. And go ahead.

1485
01:28:17,130 --> 01:28:19,590
You were going somewhere before
I rudely interrupted you with

1486
01:28:19,590 --> 01:28:23,790
this with this promotion for the
divorce.org/and a donation site

1487
01:28:23,820 --> 01:28:26,910
Okay, well, whatever whatever
whatever I was saying I was

1488
01:28:26,910 --> 01:28:30,660
going to wind up by saying they
are taking down the economy on

1489
01:28:30,660 --> 01:28:33,840
purpose they're going to
bankrupt everything everybody

1490
01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:39,510
and we're going to wind up being
controlled by the World Bank or

1491
01:28:39,510 --> 01:28:44,700
as a global bank and and you
watch the word carbon tax or

1492
01:28:44,700 --> 01:28:47,250
credits or something come into
it you watch it's going to

1493
01:28:47,250 --> 01:28:51,360
happen. But I'm very confused
now because the the Gordon Brown

1494
01:28:51,390 --> 01:28:55,800
Obama thing that's way under
analyzed. I mean, this is there

1495
01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:59,730
joking about it in the papers,
Gideon Rachman Financial Times

1496
01:28:59,730 --> 01:29:02,040
you know him right. The
columnist. Yeah. Yeah. He wrote

1497
01:29:02,040 --> 01:29:07,590
a pretty funny article. He
actually if that, that I didn't

1498
01:29:07,590 --> 01:29:12,210
have enough time to pull all the
the appropriate quotes for the

1499
01:29:12,210 --> 01:29:15,180
show. But he actually wrote them
down if I can find them real

1500
01:29:15,180 --> 01:29:18,810
quick. Otherwise, I'll skip it
love to do it. But I don't

1501
01:29:18,810 --> 01:29:21,780
understand. You know, aren't
these guys all supposed to be

1502
01:29:22,110 --> 01:29:25,950
like saving the world? I mean,
the banks saving the world

1503
01:29:25,950 --> 01:29:30,420
saving the banks, Gordon? I
mean, how does that work? How is

1504
01:29:30,420 --> 01:29:33,300
there any analysis being done on
it at all in the United States?

1505
01:29:35,250 --> 01:29:39,390
No. There's too busy saving
their job as the journalists are

1506
01:29:39,390 --> 01:29:42,930
trying to scramble around. I
mean, now they're worried sick

1507
01:29:42,930 --> 01:29:45,360
and me. We got we just lost a
Rocky Mountain News, which

1508
01:29:45,360 --> 01:29:48,000
happened last week. And then of
course, the San Francisco

1509
01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:50,130
Chronicle is going out of
business and there was a if

1510
01:29:50,130 --> 01:29:52,950
anybody can find Phil Bronstein.
He used to be the editor in

1511
01:29:52,950 --> 01:29:56,670
chief of the Chronicle and
before that the examiner which

1512
01:29:56,670 --> 01:30:01,980
merged at they can find his he
has a lament in his blog, if it

1513
01:30:01,980 --> 01:30:05,040
goes on forever, he can't stop
writing doesn't understand that

1514
01:30:05,040 --> 01:30:08,700
how synchronous is important
online, goes on and on and on,

1515
01:30:08,700 --> 01:30:11,940
but fails to mention, you know
about how the reason for the

1516
01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:14,640
collapses of these papers and
how we can you know, the

1517
01:30:14,880 --> 01:30:17,820
economics doesn't work anymore.
But if he fails to mention the

1518
01:30:17,820 --> 01:30:21,270
anecdote which you I believe we
had that meeting with those

1519
01:30:21,270 --> 01:30:26,100
guys, and he at least told me
that it was kind of ironic, to

1520
01:30:26,100 --> 01:30:29,610
say the least, that Craig
Newmark of Craigslist came over

1521
01:30:29,610 --> 01:30:32,280
there and was going to hand
Craigslist over to the the

1522
01:30:32,280 --> 01:30:35,310
examiner or the chronic roid
would have on a silver platter.

1523
01:30:35,640 --> 01:30:38,250
And they told him to go screw
himself. We know how to do

1524
01:30:38,250 --> 01:30:40,740
classify John Oh, get out of
your kid.

1525
01:30:41,760 --> 01:30:48,450
There you go. So yeah, good. All
right. Good. Gideon. Rachman in

1526
01:30:48,450 --> 01:30:54,690
the Financial Times. So the sky
Sky News covered the covered the

1527
01:30:55,020 --> 01:30:59,430
brown speech live after the
joint session. And the only

1528
01:30:59,430 --> 01:31:01,560
thing these guys could talk
about at Sky were how many

1529
01:31:01,560 --> 01:31:04,290
standing ovations once it I
think it was 16. No, no, it was

1530
01:31:04,290 --> 01:31:08,880
19 standing ovations. He got as
as the puppet puppet theater

1531
01:31:08,880 --> 01:31:13,140
continues. But I'll send you a
link to this online, you've got

1532
01:31:13,140 --> 01:31:16,380
to see the shit that Brown was
saying. It is just it's just and

1533
01:31:16,410 --> 01:31:20,490
he's almost begging, begging to
do it together. And he's didn't

1534
01:31:20,490 --> 01:31:24,270
even get the meeting. Thank you.
I mean, I'm pissed off i If I

1535
01:31:24,300 --> 01:31:26,610
show up to a sales meeting
somewhere and the guy doesn't

1536
01:31:26,610 --> 01:31:33,480
show. Yeah. Yeah, not going to
then go and talk to your

1537
01:31:33,480 --> 01:31:36,330
company. You know, if the CEO
won't have a little chat with

1538
01:31:36,330 --> 01:31:40,440
me. So I feel that that
something very nasty is afoot

1539
01:31:40,440 --> 01:31:42,720
and something's happening very,
very soon, it's going to blow

1540
01:31:42,720 --> 01:31:47,220
your at your models, etc. It's
just happening much sooner. So

1541
01:31:47,220 --> 01:31:49,290
that that would have been the
conclusion of whatever I was

1542
01:31:49,290 --> 01:31:49,710
saying.

1543
01:31:52,080 --> 01:31:55,110
So I think we need a new section
and probably a new jingle for

1544
01:31:55,110 --> 01:31:56,970
corrections. Oh, did

1545
01:31:56,970 --> 01:31:58,710
we screw something up? Yeah,

1546
01:31:58,740 --> 01:32:03,750
I got I'm gonna read it to this
guy. Michael Peko peko.com sends

1547
01:32:03,750 --> 01:32:07,110
me a note. Once again, I find
myself screaming into my

1548
01:32:07,110 --> 01:32:09,480
earbuds. I don't know what that
means. I asked him he says I

1549
01:32:09,480 --> 01:32:13,830
don't know either. A couple of
years ago, Mrs. pecho. And I

1550
01:32:13,860 --> 01:32:16,350
cruise to Bermuda. And I
immediately noticed the

1551
01:32:16,350 --> 01:32:19,620
difference in this house tops
and I found a local and asked

1552
01:32:19,620 --> 01:32:24,180
about it. The material is called
Bermuda stone. It's a somewhat

1553
01:32:24,180 --> 01:32:27,240
porous stone that is quarried on
the island and since Bermuda is

1554
01:32:27,240 --> 01:32:30,060
a group of coral islands is
essentially coral. They

1555
01:32:30,060 --> 01:32:32,250
powerwashing from once in a
while and they each have

1556
01:32:32,250 --> 01:32:35,580
cisterns underneath. And it
turns out at somebody else

1557
01:32:35,580 --> 01:32:38,490
mentioned he mentioned in a
different email that the size of

1558
01:32:38,490 --> 01:32:43,440
your cistern is some sort of a
prestigious thing. You know, my

1559
01:32:43,559 --> 01:32:47,129
my sister and I gotta tell you,
my sister and maybe it's been

1560
01:32:47,129 --> 01:32:49,679
hanging huge, massive

1561
01:32:51,270 --> 01:32:53,700
so I said it was lime or
something like that. Okay,

1562
01:32:53,730 --> 01:32:54,750
limestone All right.

1563
01:32:55,260 --> 01:32:57,750
Well, we we definitely need to
have a correction.

1564
01:32:59,730 --> 01:33:02,550
Yeah, we can do some corrections
because we're basically talking

1565
01:33:02,550 --> 01:33:08,940
out of our assets. We try as we
we try we know a lot and you've

1566
01:33:08,940 --> 01:33:14,610
been around which is that sit at
home all day jerking off. Well,

1567
01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:19,680
all right. Hey, John. Keep your
eye on. Kyrgyzstan.

1568
01:33:20,730 --> 01:33:21,840
Kurdish Kurt. Yeah,

1569
01:33:21,870 --> 01:33:25,350
those guys if you're on
Kurdistan and the Manus airbase,

1570
01:33:25,770 --> 01:33:26,820
we're getting kicked out.

1571
01:33:28,560 --> 01:33:32,040
Oh, really? Yeah. Well, that
means some bad things will

1572
01:33:32,040 --> 01:33:33,660
happen to that country for doing
that to us.

1573
01:33:33,660 --> 01:33:37,020
Not only that, but we need a new
base because you know, you got

1574
01:33:37,020 --> 01:33:38,970
to be in the stands, man. That's
where that's where all the

1575
01:33:38,970 --> 01:33:42,690
groovy action has taken place.
But they decided no, no, we're

1576
01:33:42,690 --> 01:33:46,650
just gonna close the crew just
on it. All it is is a big

1577
01:33:46,680 --> 01:33:49,800
airbase. So they're gonna have
to lease it out to somebody,

1578
01:33:50,310 --> 01:33:51,120
maybe to Russia.

1579
01:33:52,110 --> 01:33:54,780
Yeah, maybe Russia is causing a
lot of trouble. Here's an

1580
01:33:54,780 --> 01:34:01,080
October 20 2008 article. October
28 2008. Latvia will not go

1581
01:34:01,080 --> 01:34:05,430
bankrupt as Iceland. The
cushioning of the European Union

1582
01:34:05,430 --> 01:34:08,490
structural funds provides cover
for Latvia, which in real terms

1583
01:34:08,490 --> 01:34:11,040
minimizes the risk for the
Baltic nation to go bankrupt as

1584
01:34:11,040 --> 01:34:14,490
has happened to other countries
like Iceland. That VM commercial

1585
01:34:14,490 --> 01:34:19,380
banks Association, President T
adores some two versions or two

1586
01:34:19,380 --> 01:34:22,830
virginiana. No, said last week
in an interview with the Latvian

1587
01:34:22,830 --> 01:34:26,310
state television. He said that
regardless of the crisis on

1588
01:34:26,310 --> 01:34:30,090
global financial markets, the
bank in Latvia would end 2008

1589
01:34:30,090 --> 01:34:33,720
with a profit, oh, this probably
would not be as large as it used

1590
01:34:33,720 --> 01:34:36,690
to be in the past year Latvian
banks investments are balanced

1591
01:34:36,690 --> 01:34:40,050
and diversified. Therefore, they
cannot sustain such losses as

1592
01:34:40,050 --> 01:34:44,040
foreign banks did. He reiterated
no bank and Latvia is facing any

1593
01:34:44,040 --> 01:34:48,570
trouble presently. And who was
this that said this is the head

1594
01:34:48,570 --> 01:34:53,670
of the US the Latvian commercial
banks Association President.

1595
01:34:54,300 --> 01:34:56,820
I'm fantastic. All right.

1596
01:34:57,300 --> 01:34:59,880
Meanwhile, by the way, the thing
that's going on in Latvia now is

1597
01:34:59,880 --> 01:35:03,030
the apparently their shoes.
Their dissidents are the latest

1598
01:35:04,050 --> 01:35:07,110
shoes as a means of political
expression. Apparently 100,000

1599
01:35:07,110 --> 01:35:10,830
choosers or 10s of 1000s of
shoes were sent to the Latvian

1600
01:35:10,830 --> 01:35:13,860
Senate or their their
legislature. That's right.

1601
01:35:14,010 --> 01:35:16,680
Choose coming this summer. It's
the summer

1602
01:35:17,309 --> 01:35:21,299
fighting as we all I have some
shoes in the closet that we're

1603
01:35:21,299 --> 01:35:22,409
never going to where ever

1604
01:35:22,439 --> 01:35:26,159
you might as well throw them at
a politician. Exactly what a

1605
01:35:26,159 --> 01:35:28,859
fantastic I got some golf shoes

1606
01:35:31,410 --> 01:35:34,080
thrown in jail for that one, but
yeah, probably take the spikes

1607
01:35:34,080 --> 01:35:34,800
off to be okay.

1608
01:35:35,490 --> 01:35:38,340
So the bottom line is your
government does not love you.

1609
01:35:38,820 --> 01:35:43,560
They do not work for you. But we
do and it wouldn't kill you just

1610
01:35:43,560 --> 01:35:46,320
to tell a friend about this
show. Forget the money. Forget

1611
01:35:46,320 --> 01:35:49,260
the library in the winery. Just
tell someone to listen to the

1612
01:35:49,260 --> 01:35:49,680
show.

1613
01:35:50,190 --> 01:35:54,330
winery? Yeah, that'd be cool. If
we actually could get you know,

1614
01:35:54,360 --> 01:35:56,340
you get enough people to watch
the show where we have a

1615
01:35:56,340 --> 01:35:58,800
critical mass that we could get
enough money to actually get a

1616
01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:00,960
winery and give away wine.

1617
01:36:00,990 --> 01:36:06,420
Well, John of girl could dream.
Coming to you from Gitmo nation

1618
01:36:06,420 --> 01:36:10,320
east in southwest London in the
crock pot command center. I'm

1619
01:36:10,320 --> 01:36:11,010

1620
01:36:11,670 --> 01:36:15,960
and I'm in the buzzkill bunker
I'm John C. Dvorak and get mo

1621
01:36:15,960 --> 01:36:17,370
Nation v.

1622
01:36:18,030 --> 01:36:23,100
will talk to you again on
Sunday. Right here on no agenda
