1
00:00:01,860 --> 00:00:04,890
It's Saturday time once again
for the highlight of the week

2
00:00:04,890 --> 00:00:08,370
for at least two people I know
of coming to you from Gitmo

3
00:00:08,370 --> 00:00:10,800
nation east from the United
Kingdom in the affluent suburb

4
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,440
of Surrey known as Guilford. I'm
Adam curry,

5
00:00:14,220 --> 00:00:17,490
and I am here in Gitmo nation
west as we like to call it,

6
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,540
actually these northern Silicon
Valley. Also San Francisco Bay

7
00:00:21,540 --> 00:00:25,350
Area, also California. I'm John
C. Dvorak. Hey,

8
00:00:25,980 --> 00:00:30,480
hey, now, Omar. Hey, John. Hey,
how you doing?

9
00:00:31,890 --> 00:00:34,830
I'm doing better than those guys
who invested with that. That

10
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,730
Ponzi scheme guy who's been
apparently in business for 40

11
00:00:38,730 --> 00:00:39,210
years. Isn't

12
00:00:39,210 --> 00:00:42,540
that fantastic? I love that
story. And you know, it's like,

13
00:00:42,570 --> 00:00:44,970
yeah, this is the only guy this
is the only guy doing it.

14
00:00:46,230 --> 00:00:48,810
The only guy has done it that
long and managed to do it to the

15
00:00:48,810 --> 00:00:52,350
tune of $50 billion. This guy if
anyone hasn't followed the

16
00:00:52,350 --> 00:00:56,910
story, you should know Bernard
Madoff.

17
00:00:57,990 --> 00:01:00,930
He was he was the SEC chairman.
Wasn't he at one point?

18
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,180
No, I think it was headed
NASDAQ. Oh, NASDAQ. That's

19
00:01:03,180 --> 00:01:06,630
right. Yeah. And he, but he was
notorious. He was just a lot of

20
00:01:06,630 --> 00:01:09,420
people consider him the father,
the father of modern Wall

21
00:01:09,420 --> 00:01:09,990
Street.

22
00:01:10,020 --> 00:01:13,590
Yeah. Well, my case in point.
Yeah, there's the

23
00:01:13,590 --> 00:01:17,820
there it is summarised. And but
if you talk to these guys in the

24
00:01:17,820 --> 00:01:21,240
business, this is essentially
and I mentioned this on the

25
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,530
blog. This is almost the same
thing as in terms of what a

26
00:01:25,530 --> 00:01:29,400
letdown this was. This is kind
of like people discovering that

27
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,110
Mother Teresa was a hooker.

28
00:01:33,150 --> 00:01:38,040
I love that analogy. Spot on.
That's exactly right. Or that

29
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,770
Obama was involved with Chicago
mobsters. I mean that kind of

30
00:01:40,770 --> 00:01:42,990
stuff. It could just set you off
you know really disappointed.

31
00:01:43,500 --> 00:01:45,030
Really, really disappoint yet.

32
00:01:45,660 --> 00:01:48,780
Yeah. So while we're on that
tight we I mean, anyway,

33
00:01:48,810 --> 00:01:51,330
apparently everybody you know,
there's a bunch of people just

34
00:01:51,780 --> 00:01:53,370
it looks like they're gonna lose
their shirt

35
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,560
with the hat. What happened
though is the guys conscience

36
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,930
got the better of him and he
gave himself up.

37
00:01:59,550 --> 00:02:02,460
We're, here's what we're here's
what some people are thinking.

38
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,450
Okay. They were closing in on
him because he was getting too

39
00:02:06,450 --> 00:02:09,450
many redemptions because of the
economic situation explain

40
00:02:09,450 --> 00:02:11,820
what the EXPLAIN redemption how
that works with the hedge fund

41
00:02:11,820 --> 00:02:13,230
because not everybody knows

42
00:02:13,500 --> 00:02:17,460
you have that you're cashing out
right? But it takes what you

43
00:02:17,460 --> 00:02:20,310
can't cash so you can't just go
up and say hey, I want my money.

44
00:02:20,460 --> 00:02:22,680
The is there is a process
involved and

45
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,620
you can if you have a Senate
seat for sale

46
00:02:27,090 --> 00:02:30,060
so anyway, so you get your get
you can only if he doesn't at

47
00:02:30,060 --> 00:02:32,220
some point, he's essentially
going to run out of money

48
00:02:32,220 --> 00:02:35,760
because he's old game was to
nobody redeemed because he

49
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,100
always had these great returns.
So you kept accumulating more

50
00:02:38,100 --> 00:02:39,600
money, which never really
exists. Let me

51
00:02:39,599 --> 00:02:41,729
just explain that part really
quick. So he would take like,

52
00:02:41,759 --> 00:02:44,909
Just give him make it simple a
million dollars from someone and

53
00:02:44,909 --> 00:02:48,479
then he would return maybe
$200,000 profit at the end of

54
00:02:48,479 --> 00:02:51,749
the year, but it wasn't actually
because of his investments. It's

55
00:02:51,749 --> 00:02:54,959
because he got another 200
people to join up and give him

56
00:02:54,959 --> 00:02:58,199
200 million he was Ponzi scheme
Ponzi scheme, right. So he's

57
00:02:58,199 --> 00:03:00,899
taking them taking the new money
and paying it off as if he was

58
00:03:00,899 --> 00:03:01,799
being successful.

59
00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:06,359
By the way let's delve into just
as an aside here. Before I go

60
00:03:06,359 --> 00:03:11,429
into the theory about this guy,
I want to read you a paragraph

61
00:03:11,519 --> 00:03:17,699
from the big money which was
published in its from Slate

62
00:03:17,699 --> 00:03:23,219
Magazine and and I just I'm
wondering is there any editors

63
00:03:23,219 --> 00:03:26,549
or is this guy know what he's
talking about? From big

64
00:03:26,550 --> 00:03:28,110
money? Is that a column what is
that

65
00:03:28,289 --> 00:03:31,169
it's it's a website called The
Big Money Oh, calm

66
00:03:31,260 --> 00:03:31,650
All right.

67
00:03:33,060 --> 00:03:38,460
Let me just read this. This is
Mark kind of can't pronounce his

68
00:03:38,460 --> 00:03:42,540
name Gmail or g i m e im anyway.
And this is the first graph

69
00:03:42,570 --> 00:03:45,060
Bernard Madoff one of Wall
Street's best known brokers and

70
00:03:45,060 --> 00:03:48,150
money managers was arrested
blah, blah, blah. The whole

71
00:03:48,150 --> 00:03:51,720
thing was, as the criminal
complaint quotes Madoff himself

72
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:56,460
saying basically a giant Ponzi
scheme and then he didn't then

73
00:03:56,460 --> 00:03:59,370
he finishes the sentence and
with this in which investors who

74
00:03:59,370 --> 00:04:03,330
wanted their money back got paid
with earlier investors money no

75
00:04:03,330 --> 00:04:06,750
that would be later investors
money. Yeah, I mean, that's a

76
00:04:06,750 --> 00:04:09,840
Ponzi scheme. As you know, you
pay with newer people coming in,

77
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,540
it's how it works. You don't pay
with earlier investment. That's

78
00:04:12,540 --> 00:04:14,700
a note that's legitimate
business.

79
00:04:15,629 --> 00:04:17,999
Yeah, that's exactly that would
that would be like an investment

80
00:04:17,999 --> 00:04:18,899
business, right?

81
00:04:19,620 --> 00:04:23,070
So it's like, okay, so I'm
starting off with the first

82
00:04:23,070 --> 00:04:26,940
paragraph of this analysis and
this is what you define as a

83
00:04:26,940 --> 00:04:30,480
Ponzi scheme. I'm thinking do we
have you know, does he know or

84
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,500
did you know anything? Yeah, I
think it may have been just an

85
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,610
you know kind of a stumble give
writers you know, you do to

86
00:04:38,610 --> 00:04:41,040
some, you know, we've been the I
thought to be an editor or

87
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,850
somebody picked this up and been
changed by now. Anyway, so this

88
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,810
this thinking goes as follows.
There was gonna it was gonna

89
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:51,300
just think was going to collapse
because of the economy right

90
00:04:51,300 --> 00:04:54,240
now, and he couldn't possibly
redeem. I think he had 17

91
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:55,650
billion. Yeah, because everyone

92
00:04:55,650 --> 00:04:58,110
wanted their money back and they
were waiting, so he knew there

93
00:04:58,110 --> 00:05:00,360
was no way he could do it. He
couldn't get any more Capital

94
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:01,440
indeed and pretend.

95
00:05:01,860 --> 00:05:06,960
So supposedly, he told his two
sons that it was a Ponzi scheme.

96
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,840
And he was going to not he's
going to turn himself in in a

97
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:12,660
week after he gave us equity
give what little money was left

98
00:05:12,660 --> 00:05:15,570
to some of his employees who
could use a Christmas bonus or

99
00:05:15,570 --> 00:05:17,100
something like that, like
100 100

100
00:05:17,100 --> 00:05:19,800
million he was going to give his
last 100 million to his

101
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,030
employees and family.

102
00:05:21,420 --> 00:05:25,500
Yeah. So the two boys at all.
This is unbelievable. So they

103
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:29,550
turned him in. Now, the thinking
is, of course, is that the boys

104
00:05:29,550 --> 00:05:34,800
were in on it. Potentially,
allegedly, perhaps. Right. And

105
00:05:35,100 --> 00:05:40,050
some, and this whole thing was a
gambit to get them off the hook.

106
00:05:40,290 --> 00:05:43,440
Right? He wasn't intending and
giving anybody any money

107
00:05:43,470 --> 00:05:45,930
whatsoever. I mean, whatever
money's been, you know,

108
00:05:46,290 --> 00:05:49,950
squirrelled away for people as
long since, you know, in

109
00:05:49,950 --> 00:05:55,560
Switzerland. And so perhaps the
idea was to save, you know, just

110
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,590
son's from getting caught up in
what's gonna happen to hitting

111
00:05:58,590 --> 00:06:01,740
next. Yeah, gonna get better. I
mean, it's gonna be jail. And

112
00:06:01,740 --> 00:06:03,990
for him for sure what they did
to Martha Stewart.

113
00:06:05,490 --> 00:06:10,530
You watch it, you just watch.
Yeah.

114
00:06:11,070 --> 00:06:13,560
Well, so yeah, that was front
page of the Financial Times,

115
00:06:13,590 --> 00:06:16,560
obviously for this weekend. So
everyone's all over that. You're

116
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,100
right. It's you should pick up a
copy of Barron's this weekend.

117
00:06:20,100 --> 00:06:22,500
I'm sure it's filled with all
kinds of fun facts. That's kind

118
00:06:22,500 --> 00:06:25,950
of the National Enquirer of the
financial industry. Barron's

119
00:06:25,950 --> 00:06:29,190
Magazine comes out on the
weekend. Fun Facts.

120
00:06:29,519 --> 00:06:33,059
Fun Facts You got burned Fun
Fact Friday, a lot of endowment

121
00:06:33,059 --> 00:06:36,569
and a lot of hedge funds and
there I mean, there's just

122
00:06:36,569 --> 00:06:40,319
apparently just an endless
number of rich people in Palm

123
00:06:40,319 --> 00:06:41,219
Beach, Florida.

124
00:06:42,990 --> 00:06:48,300
Here's one for you, John. And we
just got back from the terrace

125
00:06:48,300 --> 00:06:53,340
house. The new the new place.
And we we had spent some time

126
00:06:53,340 --> 00:06:56,010
with the with our new handyman.
It's good. If you can get one of

127
00:06:56,010 --> 00:06:57,120
those. This guy well, yeah,

128
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,000
no, I've had a handyman. Yeah.
And you had actually have a name

129
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,250
for this place. The terraced
house curry

130
00:07:02,250 --> 00:07:06,480
terrace is what it is. Okay,
it's a terrace house. Are you

131
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:07,650
familiar with the concept?

132
00:07:07,889 --> 00:07:10,799
No. I mean, I've heard of it. I
never thought much about it.

133
00:07:11,219 --> 00:07:12,719
Tell us what a terrace house
well, it's

134
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:17,220
your very typical English house,
which stands in a row with other

135
00:07:17,250 --> 00:07:20,850
terrace houses and you step up
like five or six steps to go

136
00:07:20,850 --> 00:07:24,240
into the front door that you can
also go down to the left and

137
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:29,100
around in the front that you can
go into the basement level. And

138
00:07:29,100 --> 00:07:30,120
it's Victorian is what it

139
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,840
is. Are they are the houses
stuck next to each other? Yes,

140
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,530
yes, no, it's one long row
really big. So that maybe like

141
00:07:37,530 --> 00:07:40,590
six in a row or something like
that. And it's called, it's

142
00:07:40,590 --> 00:07:43,680
called a terrace house. And we
have the coveted end of terrace

143
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,260
house, which means you're on one
end of it. So you only have

144
00:07:46,260 --> 00:07:50,670
neighbours on one side. And
which means you have a view out

145
00:07:50,670 --> 00:07:52,770
of the front and out of the back
or certainly out of the back.

146
00:07:53,070 --> 00:07:56,640
Anyway, so the handyman he's
been with this house for many,

147
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,550
many years, which is good. You
know, because it's his house.

148
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,330
Exactly. And he and he did the
most recent remodelling, with

149
00:08:03,330 --> 00:08:05,550
all the new plumbing and
everything. So now, he knows how

150
00:08:05,580 --> 00:08:08,100
everything works. He's got you
know, all the bugs. He knows

151
00:08:08,100 --> 00:08:11,280
where it is. So that's great.
And he says something to me

152
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:16,440
that, that I was like, really.
And here it is on page two, the

153
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,070
inside way at the bottom and
find small tiny print of the

154
00:08:20,070 --> 00:08:23,850
Financial Times. The United
Kingdom has experienced its

155
00:08:23,850 --> 00:08:27,900
coldest start to winter in more
than 30 years. Experts said

156
00:08:27,900 --> 00:08:33,450
yesterday. There you go my
friend, global warming at its

157
00:08:33,450 --> 00:08:34,260
finest.

158
00:08:34,380 --> 00:08:36,960
Actually, I'm supposed to be in
Washington today. But I'm not

159
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:41,790
because the the coldest front
ever to hit the state that I

160
00:08:41,790 --> 00:08:46,020
know, are predicted to be the
coldest days ever in Washington

161
00:08:46,020 --> 00:08:47,670
State or today. And there's

162
00:08:47,670 --> 00:08:50,610
an ice storm on the East Coast.
That's global warming for you.

163
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:51,870
We're all going to die.

164
00:08:51,929 --> 00:08:54,989
And it's snowing in Houston. It
was snowing in New Orleans.

165
00:08:55,380 --> 00:08:57,990
So of course, that's where they
spun it into into climate

166
00:08:57,990 --> 00:09:01,710
change. But you know that but
you know, it's very important

167
00:09:01,740 --> 00:09:05,670
and very relevant to this very
moment, Thursday and Friday, in

168
00:09:05,670 --> 00:09:09,210
Europe. The the ministers all
got together and they had their

169
00:09:09,210 --> 00:09:14,070
big powwow. And, you know,
they've essentially built up the

170
00:09:14,100 --> 00:09:17,850
the next phase of regulation
that will have around finance

171
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:24,000
and environment. They are now
linked with these carbon

172
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,470
credits. Yep. I told you it was
common. So I know you and this

173
00:09:28,470 --> 00:09:31,350
carbon credits. Everything is
gonna be linked to carbon

174
00:09:31,350 --> 00:09:31,890
credit. I'm

175
00:09:32,100 --> 00:09:37,290
told Yeah, because carbon
credits are a guilt free version

176
00:09:37,290 --> 00:09:41,730
of tax. Yeah, exactly. And
you're paying taxes and you're

177
00:09:41,730 --> 00:09:43,230
supposed to feel good about it.

178
00:09:43,410 --> 00:09:47,790
Well know what the analogy is
paying paying a thin person

179
00:09:47,790 --> 00:09:52,170
monies so you don't have to go
on a diet. It's stupid. Because

180
00:09:52,260 --> 00:09:54,990
there's all that anyone ever
talks about is is you know the

181
00:09:54,990 --> 00:09:57,540
credits you buy the credits you
buy the credits, but it doesn't

182
00:09:57,540 --> 00:10:01,140
actually reduce anything because
somewhere some One has to

183
00:10:01,230 --> 00:10:06,330
produce less carbon emissions to
fulfil the credit that you've

184
00:10:06,330 --> 00:10:08,430
purchased. Everyone's just
buying the credits. That's what

185
00:10:08,430 --> 00:10:11,520
it's all about. And they've got
it all tricked out, man. Yeah,

186
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,360
Eastern. Yeah, couldn't we're
not doing this. How can we don't

187
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,700
have some sort of a deal with
the

188
00:10:17,700 --> 00:10:21,600
US? No, no, you and me a carbon
deal?

189
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:23,910
Why aren't we selling credits? I

190
00:10:23,910 --> 00:10:26,820
mean, I'm telling you, this is
total, we should totally be

191
00:10:26,820 --> 00:10:30,270
doing this. Because these credit
these carbon credit exchanges

192
00:10:30,270 --> 00:10:34,410
are popping up everywhere like
the It reminds me a lot in the

193
00:10:34,590 --> 00:10:39,030
mid 90s of we at the time we had
Mae east and Mae West. Remember,

194
00:10:39,030 --> 00:10:41,610
everyone was I built a knock, I
built a knock in Amsterdam, for

195
00:10:41,610 --> 00:10:44,580
Christ's sake, it was the thing
to do to have an exchange of

196
00:10:44,580 --> 00:10:47,220
bandwidth. This is the next, the
next thing, you got to have an

197
00:10:47,220 --> 00:10:50,340
exchange of carbon credits. We
can run it on an Excel

198
00:10:50,340 --> 00:10:56,760
spreadsheet, Google, Google
Spreadsheet, something like

199
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:57,120
that.

200
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,110
And what kills me is I was on a
website the other day says would

201
00:11:01,110 --> 00:11:05,580
you like to, to buy carbon
credits to visit this site or

202
00:11:05,580 --> 00:11:06,000
something?

203
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:11,070
So So while this is taking
place, this sort of just took

204
00:11:11,070 --> 00:11:14,940
place this two day meeting,
where they decide, okay, they're

205
00:11:14,940 --> 00:11:18,540
gonna put 200 billion euros into
the European economy, even

206
00:11:18,540 --> 00:11:21,120
though that's only half of what
Germany has to put in and is

207
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:25,110
failing with in its own country
by itself. But then they have

208
00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:27,900
all these carbon credits, which
is essentially about a 30

209
00:11:27,900 --> 00:11:31,680
billion euro tax, which is going
to be levied on on corporations

210
00:11:31,710 --> 00:11:40,380
new tax. And there are over 600
scientists who are preparing now

211
00:11:40,380 --> 00:11:47,700
to sue Al Gore over and the IPCC
over their bogus climate check

212
00:11:47,730 --> 00:11:51,840
global warming report, which of
course, almost gets zero press

213
00:11:51,870 --> 00:11:55,800
anywhere, but 600 PhDs, dude, I
mean, this is this is serious

214
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:56,400
business.

215
00:11:56,670 --> 00:11:59,970
Well, you know, you know what
the reason is, is because I

216
00:11:59,970 --> 00:12:04,530
think they have been making this
claim. And you and I run into it

217
00:12:04,530 --> 00:12:06,480
all the time. And people are
everything when we talked about

218
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,960
on the show somebody right away,
you don't know the IPCC said

219
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,870
this and that, and why are you
even making these assertions?

220
00:12:12,900 --> 00:12:17,160
Yeah, and I think a lot of
people a lot of signs.

221
00:12:17,850 --> 00:12:20,370
Are you telling me that people
in our artists actually use the

222
00:12:20,370 --> 00:12:21,360
word assertions?

223
00:12:22,290 --> 00:12:24,180
Well, that those particular
people

224
00:12:26,309 --> 00:12:27,209
just want to make sure.

225
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,500
I very rarely use the word.

226
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,749
I like it, though. We should use
that more often,

227
00:12:33,990 --> 00:12:38,970
as we should. Anyway, so. So I
think there's a lot of people

228
00:12:38,970 --> 00:12:41,310
out there who are, you know,
probably, you know, the the

229
00:12:41,310 --> 00:12:43,680
climatologist, or they're
experts in some way, shape or

230
00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:48,630
form about, and they have been
put into the same sack because

231
00:12:48,630 --> 00:12:54,960
of this notion that everybody
agrees. Everybody agrees,

232
00:12:55,020 --> 00:12:58,470
they discussion is over, we have
consensus.

233
00:12:58,650 --> 00:13:02,670
Everybody's more than consensus,
everybody, everybody, nobody

234
00:13:02,670 --> 00:13:06,600
disagrees with this not one
single person. So you're a PhD,

235
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,000
who maybe has some thoughts on
it, and you have some other

236
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,580
kinds of data. And your friends
come up to you at the cocktail

237
00:13:11,580 --> 00:13:14,970
party. And they go on about
putting you pigeon holing you

238
00:13:14,970 --> 00:13:15,360
with this,

239
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,230
but it's even worse. It's even
worse. If you do that as a PhD

240
00:13:19,230 --> 00:13:22,500
or researcher, your research
funding gets pulled. That's why

241
00:13:22,500 --> 00:13:24,810
people are so quiet about it,
because you know, they're afraid

242
00:13:24,810 --> 00:13:26,340
that their money is going to go
away.

243
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,600
When the lawsuits diverge, I
think the more people should

244
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,120
join the lawsuit, there's I'm
sure there's more than 600

245
00:13:33,450 --> 00:13:35,400
debtor irked about this.

246
00:13:35,970 --> 00:13:38,910
In fact, there's about 30,000, I
believe, but that's not all

247
00:13:38,910 --> 00:13:42,060
PhDs. These are just the PhDs,
the business and Media

248
00:13:42,090 --> 00:13:44,820
Institute, I have no idea who
they are. But this is a story I

249
00:13:44,820 --> 00:13:45,660
just got, oh, we'll

250
00:13:45,660 --> 00:13:47,670
get to know who they are.
They're a bunch of right wing

251
00:13:47,670 --> 00:13:50,550
nuts that don't believe in any
of this stuff. Okay. Is that

252
00:13:50,550 --> 00:13:53,190
true? I don't know. No, I'm just
gonna tell you, that's what they

253
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,530
that's what they

254
00:13:55,530 --> 00:13:58,740
have. Well, they have data, they
have data, so I'm just gonna

255
00:13:58,740 --> 00:14:00,780
presume the data is right for
the sake of argument, the

256
00:14:00,780 --> 00:14:05,340
business and Media Institute
analysed 205 network news

257
00:14:05,340 --> 00:14:10,230
stories about global warming or
climate change. Between July

258
00:14:10,230 --> 00:14:16,260
1 2007 and December 31 2007.
They found that only 20% of the

259
00:14:16,260 --> 00:14:19,470
stories even mentioned there
were any alternative opinions to

260
00:14:19,470 --> 00:14:23,400
the so called consensus on the
issues. And this just goes on

261
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,780
and on and on. About how you
know, it's pretty much the media

262
00:14:27,780 --> 00:14:31,800
just jumped on and said, Okay,
we're all gonna die. Hey, roll

263
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,900
some of those polar bear
footage. Come on. Let's head

264
00:14:33,900 --> 00:14:34,920
out. That's good shit.

265
00:14:35,340 --> 00:14:39,240
If it bleeds, it leads. Exactly.
So CBS was

266
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:49,260
the worst. Has 151 People used
by the network to promote global

267
00:14:49,260 --> 00:14:58,380
warming hysteria. And since 28
people who even questioned it

268
00:14:58,380 --> 00:14:58,980
somewhat

269
00:14:59,549 --> 00:15:00,659
as So watch

270
00:15:01,949 --> 00:15:03,569
that. It's not a

271
00:15:03,689 --> 00:15:09,299
question that someone will you
know, it's bullshit. Yeah.

272
00:15:09,359 --> 00:15:14,159
And it's amazing what's taking
place. Our financial system is

273
00:15:14,159 --> 00:15:20,249
going to be based on this lie.
And granted, I'm all for saving

274
00:15:20,249 --> 00:15:23,429
the Earth. I'm all for less
pollution, no doubt about it.

275
00:15:23,669 --> 00:15:24,149
But you know,

276
00:15:24,450 --> 00:15:27,060
about China, they're polluting
California from a distance.

277
00:15:27,090 --> 00:15:27,810
Yeah.

278
00:15:28,229 --> 00:15:31,109
Yeah, there's plenty we can do
and should be doing but this

279
00:15:31,109 --> 00:15:35,069
whole idea of buying credits so
that you can continue to pollute

280
00:15:35,309 --> 00:15:37,859
that somewhere. Someone down the
line, like my children's

281
00:15:37,859 --> 00:15:41,279
children's children will then
apparently have to produce less.

282
00:15:41,429 --> 00:15:44,969
They're talking about Atlanta
tree. The talk talking about a

283
00:15:44,969 --> 00:15:51,899
20% reduction promised by all of
all of the EU in carbon

284
00:15:51,899 --> 00:15:54,599
emissions 20%

285
00:15:55,260 --> 00:15:58,380
That's good ol screw. As long as
we don't get too involved in

286
00:15:58,380 --> 00:15:59,850
unfortunately, we got a
president now it's probably

287
00:15:59,850 --> 00:16:00,510
going to jump on

288
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,930
Italy. No, totally. You're
totally you're already involved,

289
00:16:03,930 --> 00:16:04,440
then.

290
00:16:05,490 --> 00:16:08,370
Well, you know, wasn't gonna do
any good to get McCain. McCain

291
00:16:08,370 --> 00:16:10,560
was just on Letterman last night
or the night

292
00:16:10,589 --> 00:16:12,209
Oh, really? Oh, shit. I didn't
know that.

293
00:16:13,740 --> 00:16:16,530
It was it was he was just on the
same bandwagon. It would have

294
00:16:16,530 --> 00:16:17,310
been the same thing with

295
00:16:17,309 --> 00:16:20,519
him. Well, because they're run
by the same people. John, how

296
00:16:20,519 --> 00:16:23,909
often do I have to tell you
that? Here we go. Okay, okay.

297
00:16:23,909 --> 00:16:28,619
Well, actually, this is funny. I
think you blog this. You blog,

298
00:16:28,619 --> 00:16:33,119
the Gideon Rachman story in the
Financial Times. He's a

299
00:16:33,119 --> 00:16:36,809
columnist and he said he was
talking about the possibility

300
00:16:36,809 --> 00:16:39,209
of, you know, tongue in cheek
article about the New World

301
00:16:39,209 --> 00:16:44,009
Order, etc. All right, that guy?
Yeah, that guy? There's a follow

302
00:16:44,009 --> 00:16:45,179
up to that. I was wondering like
your

303
00:16:45,180 --> 00:16:46,620
power. Don't you know him?

304
00:16:46,620 --> 00:16:50,490
No, no, no, no. You've got to
read his follow up that he

305
00:16:50,490 --> 00:16:54,540
posted on his blog. I'll just
I'll just read you the

306
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,320
conclusion. Because what
happened is he says I couldn't

307
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,640
believe the amount of email that
he got. From you know, from from

308
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,980
out there. He says, you know,
hundreds of pieces of email.

309
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,670
Here's his conclusions. There's
an undeniable amount of anger

310
00:17:08,670 --> 00:17:11,010
and hatred out there directed
everything from the United

311
00:17:11,010 --> 00:17:14,580
Nation to Knight United Nations
to big business to Barack Obama.

312
00:17:14,910 --> 00:17:18,000
These people can't read can
read, but they cannot think he

313
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:22,410
says so. He's not my buddy dude
gets worse. The End of Days

314
00:17:22,410 --> 00:17:25,440
crowd is very strong. I would
say that about a third of the

315
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,130
emails I got referred me to the
book of Revelation, in which

316
00:17:29,130 --> 00:17:34,530
apparently all it is all
foretold. Three, there's a lot

317
00:17:34,530 --> 00:17:37,380
of people who believe not only
that global warming is a hoax,

318
00:17:37,380 --> 00:17:40,740
but that it is actually a
conspiracy. The fact that the

319
00:17:40,740 --> 00:17:43,770
most influential reports on
climate change had been produced

320
00:17:43,770 --> 00:17:47,970
by an intergovernmental panel,
the IPCC, sponsored by the UN

321
00:17:48,120 --> 00:17:52,080
fuels this theory. The idea is
that the UN is perpetuating a

322
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,200
climate change hoax to provide
an excuse to impose a world

323
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,740
government on America. I am a
part of it. Apparently, he says,

324
00:17:58,980 --> 00:18:05,370
totally. Totally. Anyway, so he
winds up he does have a funny

325
00:18:05,370 --> 00:18:07,650
line at the end here. Something
positive has come out of this

326
00:18:07,650 --> 00:18:10,200
experience. If the newspaper
industry really goes down the

327
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,800
pan, I now have a business plan.
I will claim to be a former

328
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,380
member of the Bilderberg
Illuminati Council on Foreign

329
00:18:16,380 --> 00:18:19,350
Relations, un Zionist
establishment and write a book

330
00:18:19,350 --> 00:18:22,530
revealing the inside story of a
plot to form a world government.

331
00:18:22,650 --> 00:18:28,830
It will sell millions. Funny. So
sad though that's actually true.

332
00:18:29,039 --> 00:18:32,609
Both for this you'll Matador
trick. The old Matador trick.

333
00:18:32,849 --> 00:18:36,209
Yeah, yeah, you go in one
direction. And then you've just

334
00:18:36,239 --> 00:18:36,779
Oh, like,

335
00:18:36,870 --> 00:18:43,440
oh, like you did with Mac a
couple years ago. Did you do

336
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,360
something with Mac? Yeah, I
remember you did something like

337
00:18:45,360 --> 00:18:46,440
that Matador trick,

338
00:18:46,950 --> 00:18:51,480
Matador trick, so Okay, so he's
not your friend. I can see Oh,

339
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:51,570
of

340
00:18:51,570 --> 00:18:53,730
course not. He's a stooge for

341
00:18:53,730 --> 00:18:54,750
the whatever

342
00:18:54,780 --> 00:18:58,920
the New World Order. Which by
the way is if you look at Time

343
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:02,940
Magazine in there, it says
Obama's new world order.

344
00:19:05,070 --> 00:19:09,780
No, I haven't seen that. That's
phenomenal, dude. Well, you

345
00:19:09,780 --> 00:19:12,540
know, the problem is there's too
many people in the United States

346
00:19:12,540 --> 00:19:15,750
that cling to their religion and
guns to the point that they're

347
00:19:15,750 --> 00:19:19,410
not going to put up with this so
good for them. Yes, keep keep

348
00:19:19,410 --> 00:19:23,910
clinging. I got nothing against
at least uh, you know, still

349
00:19:24,810 --> 00:19:29,940
shoot the New World Order. first
and ask questions later. I hope

350
00:19:29,940 --> 00:19:35,340
so. Hey, by the way, so we have
a guy who gave us a his his use

351
00:19:35,340 --> 00:19:36,120
of his

352
00:19:37,530 --> 00:19:40,740
girlfriend's likes, oh, sling.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. I've been

353
00:19:40,740 --> 00:19:41,640
checking it out of you.

354
00:19:42,060 --> 00:19:46,020
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. And there's
the Canadian channels are on

355
00:19:46,020 --> 00:19:48,540
there. And then, you know,
there's local news in Detroit.

356
00:19:48,870 --> 00:19:51,060
And it's actually kind of
interesting because it's like a

357
00:19:51,060 --> 00:19:54,870
holding, you know, and then, you
know, I was thinking about that

358
00:19:54,870 --> 00:19:58,350
gonna probably write a column on
this from MarketWatch. You know,

359
00:19:58,380 --> 00:20:00,990
the EchoStar bought the
Slingbox.

360
00:20:02,250 --> 00:20:03,420
Oh, in addition, yeah, I

361
00:20:03,420 --> 00:20:05,220
didn't know that. Yeah, that
we're going to integrate it,

362
00:20:05,220 --> 00:20:05,670
weren't they?

363
00:20:05,940 --> 00:20:07,590
Well, I don't know if they're
going to integrate it or not.

364
00:20:07,590 --> 00:20:10,410
But it gets them around a
certain problem that I was

365
00:20:10,410 --> 00:20:12,300
saying, why would they buy this?
And what's it got to do with

366
00:20:12,300 --> 00:20:15,150
anything? Right? And then I
realised that one of the things

367
00:20:15,150 --> 00:20:21,150
that I believe that irks both
DirecTV and the Dish Network,

368
00:20:21,150 --> 00:20:26,490
folks, is the fact that if I'm
here in the San Francisco Bay

369
00:20:26,490 --> 00:20:28,860
area, I use the Dish Network, by
the way, I'm very happy with it.

370
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,560
But one of the things I can't do
is I can't sit here in the San

371
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:40,650
Francisco Bay Area and watch the
local news in Seattle, right?

372
00:20:40,650 --> 00:20:44,760
Have a house right? Right in the
area, right? Because of some

373
00:20:45,120 --> 00:20:46,710
guesses, some copyright,

374
00:20:46,890 --> 00:20:51,570
copyright region laws, all kinds
of syndications. Right. It's

375
00:20:51,570 --> 00:20:53,640
impossible to figure it out.
Right, it's

376
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,340
impossible to figure it out. In
fact, there's even something

377
00:20:56,340 --> 00:20:58,800
called most favoured Nations was
you got nothing to do with

378
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,230
broadcasting but it's in there
from means that you can't do

379
00:21:01,230 --> 00:21:01,890
this and that

380
00:21:02,759 --> 00:21:06,629
it really has to do with you
know, when television series are

381
00:21:06,629 --> 00:21:10,229
released, in which countries I
mean, it's a it's a marketing

382
00:21:10,259 --> 00:21:12,599
Yeah, it totally it's a
marketing problem. Yeah.

383
00:21:13,500 --> 00:21:16,320
So I can't get this thing and
I'm sure that I'm not one of the

384
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,260
only people that say why can't I
get my sciatic? Yeah, you would

385
00:21:19,260 --> 00:21:21,840
you like local channels on your
dish network, because you can

386
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:26,130
get local channels. And I just
go over the air, so I don't even

387
00:21:26,130 --> 00:21:28,440
bother with it. But if I wasn't
gonna get local channels, I'd

388
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,360
say yeah, I like the local
channels. I like to get the

389
00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:34,380
Seattle channels. Yeah. Oh, no,
no, can't do that. Because we

390
00:21:34,380 --> 00:21:38,250
can't it's against the law. Now
with this, so they buy sling

391
00:21:38,250 --> 00:21:40,920
box, and I'm sure they're not
happy about they'd love to sell

392
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,890
me, wouldn't you? I mean, if
you're running a business, and

393
00:21:43,890 --> 00:21:48,030
you got some sucker me that
says, hey, I want to get local

394
00:21:48,030 --> 00:21:49,410
channels in New York los

395
00:21:50,430 --> 00:21:53,250
Morley sell them a sling box in
a sling catcher, right.

396
00:21:54,330 --> 00:21:56,430
I mean, I would like to get
these local channels on the Dish

397
00:21:56,430 --> 00:21:59,370
Network over the satellite when
I know they have them, but they

398
00:21:59,370 --> 00:22:04,050
can't sell them to me. So
there's money they're losing. So

399
00:22:04,050 --> 00:22:06,300
now you got this. Well, here's
your solution. You get a sling

400
00:22:06,300 --> 00:22:08,790
box and you put it up if you got
two houses, you put one in the

401
00:22:08,790 --> 00:22:10,980
other house and you can watch
your local channels that way.

402
00:22:11,190 --> 00:22:16,110
And you can and it works really
well. So we're watching Detroit.

403
00:22:16,230 --> 00:22:19,260
Yeah. And I've been of course
I've been watching more than

404
00:22:19,260 --> 00:22:23,130
just by the way astonishing and
what works astonishingly well.

405
00:22:23,970 --> 00:22:28,140
The VPN only requires 384 Yeah,
and

406
00:22:28,140 --> 00:22:30,900
you know, it takes a second or
two for for to optimise the

407
00:22:30,900 --> 00:22:33,900
stream so actually switching
through the channels is just

408
00:22:33,900 --> 00:22:37,560
like IPTV it's a it's a huge
problem because it takes a

409
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:37,980
while.

410
00:22:38,700 --> 00:22:42,210
It doesn't take that long maybe
for you. Yeah, but anyway, yeah,

411
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:46,770
well, dude, I've got 26 megabits
of bandwidth coming at the new

412
00:22:46,770 --> 00:22:52,470
place who I'm like I'm bro I
want everything I got Virgin

413
00:22:52,470 --> 00:22:56,910
Media I got what are you gonna
pay for that? The total bit so I

414
00:22:56,910 --> 00:23:02,880
got the BT full on XL package
with I'd said give me everything

415
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:07,560
Give me your obviously phone
service but give me your your

416
00:23:07,590 --> 00:23:11,280
your they have a BT Vision?
Which is their their ICT, which

417
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:15,840
really truly is IPTV? Yeah, I
got that shit

418
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,450
doesn't work, but go ahead.
Yeah.

419
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:25,590
It's not it works in the UK, but
it's on BTS network. It's not

420
00:23:25,590 --> 00:23:26,820
running across the internet.

421
00:23:27,360 --> 00:23:30,720
Yeah, well, IPTV doesn't require
it running across the internet

422
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:30,870
if

423
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,370
you want to see protocol TV.
Yeah, but if you want to see

424
00:23:35,610 --> 00:23:37,770
alright, I don't want to get
into this discussion again.

425
00:23:37,830 --> 00:23:45,300
Okay. Yeah, I have IPTV now
coming. And that is it's not

426
00:23:45,300 --> 00:23:49,710
that bad. I think we're the full
on package is like 28 pounds a

427
00:23:49,710 --> 00:23:54,090
month. What? Yeah, it's not too
bad, then no, that's megabits.

428
00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:57,720
No, no, that's, that's six
megabits. Then on top of that, I

429
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,650
got Virgin Media who have fibre
optic cable running right up to

430
00:24:01,650 --> 00:24:04,650
the house. Of course you don't
you don't actually get fibre in

431
00:24:04,650 --> 00:24:09,000
your hand, but then they convert
okay. Yeah, exactly. So that's

432
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:09,990
20 megabits.

433
00:24:11,610 --> 00:24:12,570
How much does that cost?

434
00:24:13,890 --> 00:24:17,550
That is also I didn't get the
phone service. And of course,

435
00:24:17,550 --> 00:24:20,250
that's cable TV at the same
time. So this package is in

436
00:24:20,250 --> 00:24:24,450
there with movies and all that
shit. That's probably about 48 a

437
00:24:24,450 --> 00:24:26,850
month but that's that's that's
going to be the main television

438
00:24:26,850 --> 00:24:30,840
package that has a whole bunch
of steel Of course, it's fine.

439
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,990
Well, that's the way it should
be. And we're, you know, we're

440
00:24:33,990 --> 00:24:37,740
in a metropolis now. So you
shouldn't be paying crazy

441
00:24:37,740 --> 00:24:39,270
amounts for for bandwidth

442
00:24:40,590 --> 00:24:42,210
and shifts how the connection is

443
00:24:42,330 --> 00:24:47,640
and exactly and in both cases, I
said and they say you have

444
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:51,660
unlimited download, I said,
Okay, unlimited means like shit

445
00:24:51,690 --> 00:24:55,890
as much as I can eat right? No
Asterix no unlimited. Okay. said

446
00:24:55,890 --> 00:25:00,270
how about upload? You have
unlimited I said unless mitad

447
00:25:00,300 --> 00:25:04,290
upload said and I said I'm
recording this because you're

448
00:25:04,290 --> 00:25:07,890
recording the conversation as
well. Which they tell you up

449
00:25:07,890 --> 00:25:10,800
front. I said, I'm just going to
ask you one more time I have

450
00:25:10,830 --> 00:25:16,080
unlimited upload and download
capacity is anything anything

451
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:20,880
you want to do, sir? Unlimited.
Okay. And, and I'm sure I'm

452
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,090
gonna have to use that recording
sometime in the next six months

453
00:25:24,570 --> 00:25:25,560
on your cut off.

454
00:25:27,210 --> 00:25:28,770
We'll see. We'll see.

455
00:25:30,060 --> 00:25:32,760
Well, good. That's that good. I
liked it. I think everyone out

456
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,540
there should document the BS
because you know, they when it

457
00:25:36,540 --> 00:25:38,700
comes down to it is is that in
writing? You haven't got a

458
00:25:38,700 --> 00:25:40,950
recording? You that You
announced that you were

459
00:25:40,950 --> 00:25:42,660
recording it, which was nothing
illegal?

460
00:25:42,690 --> 00:25:46,380
No. Well, they announced that
recording me. Yeah. And so you

461
00:25:46,380 --> 00:25:46,890
can record

462
00:25:46,890 --> 00:25:49,620
them and show the whole thing
now you can give that to a

463
00:25:49,620 --> 00:25:50,670
magistrate?

464
00:25:50,700 --> 00:25:54,360
Yes. And my solicitor, my
solicitor will go to the

465
00:25:54,360 --> 00:25:55,290
magistrate.

466
00:25:55,770 --> 00:25:59,700
And bingo Yeah. Pro you won't
get your connection back.

467
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:04,530
I'll never get a connection to
the other day. Now. Of course,

468
00:26:04,530 --> 00:26:07,080
this isn't you know, I'm so not
used to it. This was, you know,

469
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:11,940
southwest London. This is a nice
neighbourhood. And so you've got

470
00:26:11,940 --> 00:26:14,880
parking for residents with
parking permit only and then of

471
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,400
which I haven't gotten yet
because you have to like show a

472
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,040
bill or something or whatever.
It's just pain in the ass.

473
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:23,970
haven't done it yet. And so I
park off to the side, and this

474
00:26:23,970 --> 00:26:26,550
maximum of four hour parking,
whatever. So I throw whatever

475
00:26:26,550 --> 00:26:29,400
money in there. And I come back
and it's like 20 minutes

476
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:35,670
overdue. They have a hand
gripper almost on my car, John.

477
00:26:36,150 --> 00:26:40,290
You know, like they park a truck
next to it and Boston boot? Is

478
00:26:40,290 --> 00:26:44,460
that what it's called? But just
call a tow truck? No, no, it's

479
00:26:44,460 --> 00:26:47,460
like one of those machines you
see at the carnival where you

480
00:26:47,460 --> 00:26:50,280
put the money and you stared and
then it grabs something and then

481
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,710
shakes it and then you never you
never get the prize.

482
00:26:54,630 --> 00:26:56,820
What's it what's the purpose? So
they actually

483
00:26:56,850 --> 00:27:00,810
in they don't they pick your car
up out of its spot in the air

484
00:27:00,810 --> 00:27:02,100
and then put it on the truck?

485
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:04,680
Oh, you're gonna get towed away,

486
00:27:04,770 --> 00:27:07,980
not towed away. This is what I'm
trying to say. It's a big arm.

487
00:27:08,490 --> 00:27:13,200
And it comes down on top of the
car and, and picks it up. puts

488
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:17,640
it on the truck. I'm sure
there's a name for it. Yeah,

489
00:27:17,700 --> 00:27:21,990
it's outrageous. After the after
20 minutes, they were already

490
00:27:21,990 --> 00:27:23,730
there with the with the with the
hook.

491
00:27:24,060 --> 00:27:26,910
Jig and you must have cameras or
they have cameras everywhere. He

492
00:27:26,970 --> 00:27:27,630
went. They have

493
00:27:27,630 --> 00:27:33,630
3737 cameras. I looked it up on
the website 37 cameras dedicated

494
00:27:33,630 --> 00:27:38,460
specifically to your hard law,
parking control. Yeah, my block,

495
00:27:38,700 --> 00:27:40,500
all pointed at my window.

496
00:27:41,610 --> 00:27:45,240
Now there turns out that these
cameras are pointed at the

497
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:45,960
metres

498
00:27:46,020 --> 00:27:54,030
I'll make it even better. We
have a metre on John Street. So

499
00:27:54,120 --> 00:27:57,540
we have we had the delivery come
from Holland early on Tuesday.

500
00:27:58,110 --> 00:28:02,430
Patricia had bought some stuff
there. And she had one of our

501
00:28:02,460 --> 00:28:04,950
moving companies we work with
before he's gonna just when you

502
00:28:04,950 --> 00:28:08,970
guys come on over next trip,
bring that shit for us. Okay. So

503
00:28:09,030 --> 00:28:12,570
we know they, they roll up, they
double park to open up the

504
00:28:12,570 --> 00:28:16,020
truck, you know the gun and it's
a square, all right? It's not a

505
00:28:16,020 --> 00:28:19,320
thruway, it's, you can you can
drive past on either side. It's

506
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:23,400
a square. And so there loads of
stuff out and the traffic warden

507
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,430
comes over. And you know, and
what they always do, they take a

508
00:28:26,430 --> 00:28:29,850
picture, right for proof digital
picture. So they have your

509
00:28:29,850 --> 00:28:33,450
licence plate and the situation
at hand. And they write out a

510
00:28:33,450 --> 00:28:37,380
ticket for him. And Patricia
goes out and Patricia is great

511
00:28:37,380 --> 00:28:39,210
at this and she's immediately
she's like, I'm gonna make

512
00:28:39,210 --> 00:28:45,060
friends with this guy. And, and
she's talking and she says, So,

513
00:28:45,540 --> 00:28:48,240
you know, they're just stopping
unload some stuff. Yeah, he

514
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,120
says, but you're not allowed to
do that. So what is the

515
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,880
procedure? Because we have other
trucks coming you know, we're

516
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:58,080
moving what is the procedure? He
said? I don't know. He literally

517
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,500
could not tell you what to do.
Is I just not allowed to stand

518
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:03,930
there with your truck. I have no
idea how you can get a permit to

519
00:29:03,930 --> 00:29:04,560
stand there.

520
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,170
How do you move from house to
house?

521
00:29:07,410 --> 00:29:15,450
Thank you. Thank you. It's
crazy. However, you will, you

522
00:29:15,450 --> 00:29:18,780
will love it and you've got to
come over in the new year.

523
00:29:19,710 --> 00:29:24,990
Because obviously, to test out
the AGA oven, but we have in our

524
00:29:24,990 --> 00:29:27,810
neighbourhood within like three
minutes walking distance, we

525
00:29:27,810 --> 00:29:34,320
have a in an independent wine
store. Which I'm excited about.

526
00:29:35,490 --> 00:29:39,300
Because I need I need some
advice from you. You need to ask

527
00:29:39,300 --> 00:29:41,730
me if they have X, Y or Z and
I'll go see if they're any good.

528
00:29:41,730 --> 00:29:42,900
They look really slick.

529
00:29:43,290 --> 00:29:45,300
Did you ever go to Berry
brothers and red and get me

530
00:29:45,750 --> 00:29:46,500
bottles? Oh

531
00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:51,870
no, no, no. Dude, I don't even
have time to scratch my ass. But

532
00:29:51,870 --> 00:29:56,190
we also have an Italian it's
kind of like an Italian butcher

533
00:29:56,190 --> 00:30:02,760
slash deli and ah and it's just
they've got fruits and vegetable

534
00:30:02,790 --> 00:30:09,150
and unbelievable assortment of
meats. It's just It looks so

535
00:30:09,150 --> 00:30:12,840
good and inviting. And so non
big box

536
00:30:15,509 --> 00:30:18,659
sounds French now it's Italian.
I mean in style.

537
00:30:19,980 --> 00:30:21,450
You wouldn't have all these
little stores. I mean, you know

538
00:30:21,450 --> 00:30:24,150
they subsidise. You know they
make they don't let big stores

539
00:30:24,510 --> 00:30:25,500
crop up everywhere.

540
00:30:25,529 --> 00:30:28,319
Oh no, no, they got they got
plenty of well, this is London

541
00:30:28,319 --> 00:30:31,079
you know you walk 10 minutes and
there's a Starbucks anywhere.

542
00:30:32,549 --> 00:30:36,269
And there's Tescos and there's
all kinds of stuff aren't as

543
00:30:36,269 --> 00:30:36,839
usual.

544
00:30:38,910 --> 00:30:40,620
So what's the third one? You
should there were three.

545
00:30:42,030 --> 00:30:44,490
I thought that No, I said there
were three I thought they were

546
00:30:45,570 --> 00:30:50,760
no the AGA All right, the wine,
the wine store. Yeah, the wine

547
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,120
store looks really happening,
man. It's called wines of the

548
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:54,690
world

549
00:30:55,050 --> 00:30:56,850
will go in there with your
candidate. Well,

550
00:30:57,420 --> 00:30:59,640
send me an email with a couple
things that should go live. I

551
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,800
don't want to go taking pictures
like that. Not until I know.

552
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:08,400
Well, you will go into you could
also you could just stream geeky

553
00:31:08,700 --> 00:31:14,310
Hey, John, you got up to take a
look at my stream my quick mag

554
00:31:14,310 --> 00:31:17,190
got my quick camera and it's
really cool. Did check out my

555
00:31:17,190 --> 00:31:18,090
wine store.

556
00:31:19,620 --> 00:31:22,170
Yeah, you're right. Yeah, let's
get that get that

557
00:31:22,770 --> 00:31:26,400
people always are sending me
email asking us to put this on

558
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:32,460
video. And I'm like, what is the
appeal? And as always, when

559
00:31:32,460 --> 00:31:34,290
you're in San Francisco
together, how can we don't do

560
00:31:34,290 --> 00:31:39,840
the show together? Well, because
it would suck. It has to be I

561
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,400
can't look at you when we're
doing this.

562
00:31:42,210 --> 00:31:46,950
No, because I'm always mugging
or rolling my eyes doesn't work.

563
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,480
So oh, here we go. I get more
eyeball exercise my action my

564
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,660
gut. My prescription is getting
closer and closer to 2020.

565
00:31:54,660 --> 00:31:58,680
Because of the eye ball roll. I
get to talking to Adam curry.

566
00:31:59,430 --> 00:32:05,730
Hey, M E. Amy, a London based
startup with an API, which has

567
00:32:05,730 --> 00:32:09,000
the grand aim of measuring the
world's energy consumption and

568
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,650
therefore carbon footprint has
secured an undisclosed series a

569
00:32:13,650 --> 00:32:16,890
financing from O'Reilly
alphatech Ventures Union Square

570
00:32:16,890 --> 00:32:20,340
Ventures and UK based Angel the
accelerator group, there's your

571
00:32:20,370 --> 00:32:22,290
carbon trading company.

572
00:32:23,850 --> 00:32:26,130
Why can't structure one of these
deals because there's

573
00:32:26,130 --> 00:32:31,890
actual work and we're lazy
bastards. That's, that would be

574
00:32:31,890 --> 00:32:36,390
the basic problem we have. You
don't actually want to do any of

575
00:32:36,390 --> 00:32:39,900
the work. Like our T shirts.
Let's mention the T shirts early

576
00:32:39,900 --> 00:32:40,350
today.

577
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:45,060
No agenda.ng t shirts.com.
Please buy a t shirt to support

578
00:32:45,060 --> 00:32:49,290
this show. Well, I get to do
these for one shot and we're

579
00:32:49,290 --> 00:32:52,080
gonna go to a different design.
So you get to get them where you

580
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,440
can. You know, the guy's moaning
we're just not we're not selling

581
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:56,190
enough T shirts

582
00:32:56,220 --> 00:32:59,730
did he sell and he's it did
anything. You hardly had

583
00:32:59,730 --> 00:33:04,560
enough to pay for the cost of
admission? Yeah, it's no agenda

584
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,380
dot angry shirts.com. And here's
one of the problems. So I got

585
00:33:07,380 --> 00:33:09,900
two notes from people saying
well, I know they cost too much

586
00:33:09,900 --> 00:33:12,960
to ship them to Europe. And
yeah, it costs too much to ship

587
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:13,050
them.

588
00:33:13,050 --> 00:33:16,320
Do you love this show or not? I
mean, what is that about? Well,

589
00:33:17,190 --> 00:33:19,980
they don't think it's worth
paying $25 Total to get a t

590
00:33:19,980 --> 00:33:22,830
shirt. Apparently they what we
need is like we need a vendor in

591
00:33:22,830 --> 00:33:25,440
Europe that can you know ship.
Yeah, robbery in England, at

592
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,990
least or something? Right on
right, there must be somebody

593
00:33:27,990 --> 00:33:28,290
there.

594
00:33:28,529 --> 00:33:32,099
And I still think that we can do
even better designs. I like what

595
00:33:32,099 --> 00:33:39,449
the angry shirts guy did, but
you know, the really well in

596
00:33:39,449 --> 00:33:40,319
that case to

597
00:33:42,450 --> 00:33:44,820
get some out there so we can see
what the mechanisms going to

598
00:33:44,820 --> 00:33:46,800
look like. So we'll do some
fancy shirts.

599
00:33:46,830 --> 00:33:53,220
Hey, Zazzle I've been asked to
do something with Zazzle Yeah.

600
00:33:53,730 --> 00:33:55,170
How's their stuff? Is that any
good?

601
00:33:55,530 --> 00:34:01,320
It's very it's just the same as
as it's similar to Cafe press

602
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:05,430
was it's not really a silkscreen
shirt. It's like a press on.

603
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,220
Okay. Yeah, I think we want to
stick with silk screen because

604
00:34:08,220 --> 00:34:13,500
we're not gonna make that many
of them. And you know, this guy

605
00:34:13,500 --> 00:34:18,330
still can't he does the whole
thing. Last. I mean, we. So I

606
00:34:18,330 --> 00:34:20,550
was looking at this. I was
right, Randy. I was digging

607
00:34:20,550 --> 00:34:24,630
around. I ran into this weird
article about how girls are

608
00:34:24,630 --> 00:34:28,860
dominating the internet. With
some interesting numbers, a Pew

609
00:34:28,860 --> 00:34:32,700
Research people did this and
this came out in January. I

610
00:34:32,700 --> 00:34:38,010
think this 32% of the 12 to 17
girls started a website as

611
00:34:38,010 --> 00:34:44,370
opposed to 27% of adult of boys
and 14% of adults. So I'm

612
00:34:44,370 --> 00:34:46,380
looking at all this data and I'm
thinking at the same time

613
00:34:46,380 --> 00:34:50,100
there's a scandal a story that
came out last week that saying

614
00:34:50,100 --> 00:34:55,020
these kids are taking nude
pictures of each other and

615
00:34:55,020 --> 00:34:58,050
swapping them over the phones
you know, because a phone you

616
00:34:58,050 --> 00:35:01,380
can send a photo from what your
phone My phone or whatever

617
00:35:01,409 --> 00:35:05,039
it's called multi multimedia
messaging. It's been around for

618
00:35:05,129 --> 00:35:05,939
10 years.

619
00:35:06,510 --> 00:35:08,970
Right. But it's never been
convenient or cheap

620
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,280
in Europe has been used quite a
lot.

621
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,090
So I never use it.

622
00:35:15,810 --> 00:35:16,860
I do it all the time.

623
00:35:17,670 --> 00:35:20,400
I mean, I do a lot of SMS. I
mean, I do a lot of typing on a

624
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,940
little t 71, which is, I liked
it. You know, I was looking at

625
00:35:23,940 --> 00:35:26,160
the specs on that phone, I
didn't realise it had an FM

626
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:26,790
radio,

627
00:35:27,179 --> 00:35:30,269
you just stick your headphones
in and it works. Unbelievable.

628
00:35:30,299 --> 00:35:32,519
Which is something by the way,
radios, it's

629
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:39,510
got. It's got it's got GSM
radios, it's got that, you know,

630
00:35:40,290 --> 00:35:42,870
Bluetooth, Wi Fi, Wi Fi, it's

631
00:35:42,870 --> 00:35:47,820
got a receiver for this GPS
satellite. What?

632
00:35:48,150 --> 00:35:51,510
You know what, yeah, GPS,
satellite receiver, you know,

633
00:35:51,540 --> 00:35:54,150
the thing that bothers me is
that, and I've never Oh, I

634
00:35:54,150 --> 00:35:56,190
understand why, you know, they
say you gotta plug your

635
00:35:56,190 --> 00:35:59,100
headphones in, because then the
headphones become the antenna.

636
00:36:00,030 --> 00:36:02,370
But I've always that's always
been a bummer to me because I

637
00:36:02,370 --> 00:36:05,040
like listening to the radio from
time to time, but I want to use

638
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,850
my Bluetooth headset. I don't
want to have to plug in wires.

639
00:36:08,850 --> 00:36:09,810
That's the whole point.

640
00:36:10,170 --> 00:36:13,950
That's the problem with FM. If
it was an am tune, you could

641
00:36:13,950 --> 00:36:17,490
probably get away with it.
Right? But who wants to have a

642
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:19,830
right has to have some length?
Yeah,

643
00:36:19,860 --> 00:36:24,480
I heard you talking about it on
twit. You are that show, by the

644
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,850
way, when you're on that show
was really good.

645
00:36:27,419 --> 00:36:30,899
Well, it's actually when I'm on
when I'm at Leo studio. That was

646
00:36:30,959 --> 00:36:33,239
yeah, that really made a big
difference. And I'll tell you

647
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:38,759
why. It's because, you know,
unlike you and me. Leo and I

648
00:36:38,789 --> 00:36:42,689
have worked together and radio
for so long that we you know, we

649
00:36:42,839 --> 00:36:45,689
actually can cue off each other
and make a radio show, you know,

650
00:36:45,689 --> 00:36:50,459
kind of good old fashioned way.
And so the timing is changes a

651
00:36:50,459 --> 00:36:54,749
lot. And and there's other
people involved so the timing is

652
00:36:54,749 --> 00:36:57,629
important any lelio even notice
that he says you know, it's just

653
00:36:58,079 --> 00:37:01,799
because you're doing stuff over
Skype has its moments but you

654
00:37:01,799 --> 00:37:03,989
know, if you're writing in
studio with especially with

655
00:37:03,989 --> 00:37:08,369
somebody you have worked a lot
with on the air. It makes a

656
00:37:08,369 --> 00:37:09,029
difference. Yeah,

657
00:37:09,060 --> 00:37:11,970
the timing. It's very difficult
because we're always struggling

658
00:37:11,970 --> 00:37:14,790
with the timing and the delay
that you the automatic we have

659
00:37:14,790 --> 00:37:16,830
on Skype. Yes, inherent.

660
00:37:17,460 --> 00:37:19,920
Now, I was using those
countrymen headphones. And you

661
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,170
told me that said they sounded
like crap or something?

662
00:37:23,010 --> 00:37:26,250
No, because I heard it and I
didn't even know you were in the

663
00:37:26,250 --> 00:37:29,790
studio because I only I didn't
watch the live feed. And I

664
00:37:29,790 --> 00:37:31,860
immediately I heard the
difference. I knew you were

665
00:37:31,860 --> 00:37:33,690
using something different than
of course, I heard that you were

666
00:37:33,690 --> 00:37:36,900
in the studio. And then you send
me a text message. So I figure

667
00:37:36,900 --> 00:37:41,880
you using the country man. And
it sounds good. But the esses

668
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:46,140
are a little bit slippy a little
slushy. Yeah, go listen to it

669
00:37:46,140 --> 00:37:48,660
again. Maybe it's just because
of the mp3 transcode. But of

670
00:37:48,660 --> 00:37:52,200
course, you know, that's the
same result. It sounded a little

671
00:37:52,230 --> 00:37:54,960
slushy. Just just the SS. But

672
00:37:55,050 --> 00:37:57,960
check it out. Do it now he
bought an AMI we're doing now

673
00:37:57,990 --> 00:37:59,460
for anyone out there listening.
We're

674
00:37:59,460 --> 00:38:01,380
we've only done this a million
times.

675
00:38:01,739 --> 00:38:05,399
We talk about these mics because
we're both looking for mics. But

676
00:38:05,429 --> 00:38:10,949
the country man, which is us and
churches. That was the he bought

677
00:38:10,949 --> 00:38:13,079
the omni directional and
everybody who sent me a note

678
00:38:13,079 --> 00:38:15,269
says just buy the unit
directional. Maybe that'll make

679
00:38:15,269 --> 00:38:17,909
you there's been I here's what
my problem is. I've used these

680
00:38:17,909 --> 00:38:20,219
before and I realise they go
around the ear.

681
00:38:20,369 --> 00:38:23,459
That's my question. Is there an
earpiece on that as well? No.

682
00:38:23,489 --> 00:38:23,999
Okay, good.

683
00:38:24,030 --> 00:38:26,190
It goes around the outside of
the ear, like like a pair of

684
00:38:26,190 --> 00:38:28,980
glasses and then it hangs there
and you bend it around until

685
00:38:28,980 --> 00:38:31,980
it's just you know, 50 words in
front of your mouth and not

686
00:38:31,980 --> 00:38:36,540
quite. The thing is always
flopping around. I can't get it

687
00:38:36,540 --> 00:38:39,600
to be tight. I'm wondering
whether it's even usable for me

688
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,670
because it just doesn't fit
around my ear. Right? I find

689
00:38:41,670 --> 00:38:44,220
that thing to you and then if
you move your head a little bit,

690
00:38:44,220 --> 00:38:47,100
the thing goes out of whack and
it's laying against your skin.

691
00:38:47,130 --> 00:38:51,780
Do you use headphones? You don't
use headphones do you know okay,

692
00:38:51,810 --> 00:38:54,750
because the headphones of course
will squeeze it on. Or we could

693
00:38:54,750 --> 00:39:00,360
use gaffer tape on your head.
Just like a big slab of grey

694
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,510
gaffer tape right there. Just
sticking it in place. Usually

695
00:39:03,510 --> 00:39:04,050
black,

696
00:39:04,290 --> 00:39:09,060
so I have enjoyed the whole
that's called duct tape, I think

697
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,450
Oh, you're right. Okay. Okay.
Yes, that's called duct tape.

698
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,040
Gaffer tape is black Euro.

699
00:39:16,139 --> 00:39:19,979
gaffers gaff and I hate to keep
correcting it just makes

700
00:39:19,980 --> 00:39:21,960
me feel bad just think like
that. Yeah,

701
00:39:22,230 --> 00:39:25,950
so by the way, they have clear
duct tape now.

702
00:39:26,489 --> 00:39:27,449
Oh, but no grey.

703
00:39:28,710 --> 00:39:30,540
No, they have the greatest
silver duct tape. That's the

704
00:39:30,540 --> 00:39:31,170
classic

705
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:32,490
that's what I'm saying. And you
call them

706
00:39:33,659 --> 00:39:35,999
I call that guy I'm just saying
they have clear that just it's

707
00:39:35,999 --> 00:39:38,819
weird but there's a clear duct
tape out there. Maybe

708
00:39:38,820 --> 00:39:41,130
we can put some of the clear
across your lips across the

709
00:39:41,130 --> 00:39:42,450
front that would be good.

710
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:48,150
Yeah. So anyway, so the idea is
is that you know when you wait

711
00:39:48,150 --> 00:39:50,100
when you use country man, it's
like you're supposed to be on

712
00:39:50,100 --> 00:39:54,210
stage is something a lot of
singers use them. And a lot of

713
00:39:54,210 --> 00:39:57,090
preachers use them and you know
friend and friend of mine wants

714
00:39:57,090 --> 00:39:59,970
to do stand up comedy with one
and you put the you put the

715
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,640
Country man on your face. And
then you have the, you know,

716
00:40:03,420 --> 00:40:05,310
back radio on the back, but
you're not going to be wearing

717
00:40:05,310 --> 00:40:08,520
headphones. So these things are
supposed to fit without a pair

718
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,400
of headphones, crimping them on.
So I'm wondering whether, you

719
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,830
know, maybe my I don't know, I
don't think my ears any weirder

720
00:40:13,830 --> 00:40:17,550
than anybody else's, but I don't
know, I'm having second thoughts

721
00:40:17,550 --> 00:40:19,710
about they're so expensive,
these Countryman mics, and I'm

722
00:40:19,710 --> 00:40:22,290
having second thoughts about
using one really, what's it

723
00:40:22,290 --> 00:40:23,370
called for when I travel?

724
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:24,450
Yeah, what do they call?

725
00:40:25,350 --> 00:40:26,700
It cost about 400 bucks.

726
00:40:27,030 --> 00:40:29,670
So that's pretty steep. But
they're great. But

727
00:40:29,670 --> 00:40:31,560
you know, I just for travelling,
I mean, I could throw it in the

728
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,920
suitcases, they weighed nothing.
So I don't have to go, you know,

729
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:36,870
and when you travel nowadays,
you want to travel light, and

730
00:40:36,870 --> 00:40:39,900
you don't want to check luggage.
And so I you know, rather than

731
00:40:39,900 --> 00:40:43,590
carrying around a big clunky
microphone or something like I

732
00:40:43,590 --> 00:40:50,670
did last time when I went to
Portugal, Ohio, too much, you

733
00:40:50,670 --> 00:40:52,590
know, too agonising.

734
00:40:52,980 --> 00:40:56,760
So what else is going on in your
neck of the woods, Ron John has

735
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,880
drawn, why do I say that from
time to time that's not used?

736
00:41:00,510 --> 00:41:02,880
And means you it means you lost
it, it means you're losing

737
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:04,740
interest in the conversation,
correct?

738
00:41:05,039 --> 00:41:08,939
Yeah, that was yeah, there you
go. We figured it out. Whenever

739
00:41:08,939 --> 00:41:14,219
I start calling you, Ron, that
means What's your name? Whenever

740
00:41:14,219 --> 00:41:16,409
I start calling you, Ron, you,
you know that I'm losing

741
00:41:16,409 --> 00:41:16,889
interest?

742
00:41:17,429 --> 00:41:20,819
Yeah. Well, I just just to get
Yeah, well, I suppose you are

743
00:41:20,819 --> 00:41:23,549
because you know, you're not
going to get the countryman. So

744
00:41:23,549 --> 00:41:23,699
I'm

745
00:41:23,700 --> 00:41:27,300
not I'm very happy with with my
with my new discovery with a lav

746
00:41:27,300 --> 00:41:30,300
microphone. It's faster. Which
one is it you're using, it's the

747
00:41:30,300 --> 00:41:37,230
electro UHF you m 110. And I've
had these for seven years. And I

748
00:41:37,230 --> 00:41:40,530
carry them with me everywhere.
And just in case they want I

749
00:41:40,530 --> 00:41:43,140
need a good sound recording
because it's a lav microphone,

750
00:41:43,140 --> 00:41:46,110
but I just I just hooked it
right on my windscreen here and

751
00:41:46,110 --> 00:41:48,240
it works fine. People love the
sound. So why am I going to

752
00:41:48,240 --> 00:41:48,600
argue?

753
00:41:48,630 --> 00:41:52,740
Are you talking directly into
it? Yeah. Yeah, I don't have to,

754
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:54,990
because you have a wind screen
in front of it.

755
00:41:55,380 --> 00:41:59,670
It has its own little windscreen
on it. So I've clipped it

756
00:41:59,670 --> 00:42:02,910
literally onto the windscreen,
which is still hanging in front

757
00:42:02,910 --> 00:42:05,310
of the Heil microphone, as we
discussed earlier, because I

758
00:42:05,310 --> 00:42:08,640
liked the idea of a microphone.
I can't I can't get into this.

759
00:42:08,639 --> 00:42:11,399
Anyway, hold on a second. Let me
just try to visualise what

760
00:42:11,399 --> 00:42:12,509
you're just described. Alright,

761
00:42:12,540 --> 00:42:17,220
I'm here. I have a mic stand and
a boom. And then I have on the

762
00:42:17,220 --> 00:42:22,560
end of that I have a Heil, you
know, the pro 40. Right, the pro

763
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:27,480
40 in it's that cool,
professional looking wire hanger

764
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:27,930
thing.

765
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,730
You know what I mean? Looks like
a cat's cradle cradle right.

766
00:42:32,909 --> 00:42:36,059
And then and then I have a
windscreen in front of that. Now

767
00:42:36,059 --> 00:42:39,959
the windscreens previously was
turned the other way around, and

768
00:42:39,959 --> 00:42:43,409
my joint burned a hole in one
and one side of it. So I've

769
00:42:43,859 --> 00:42:47,579
flipped it around and I put the
atika just kind of squeezed the

770
00:42:47,579 --> 00:42:52,229
microphone, the love in between
the two screens. And I fold it

771
00:42:52,229 --> 00:42:54,479
down in front of the mic. And so
now it feels like I'm talking

772
00:42:54,479 --> 00:42:55,469
into a real microphone.

773
00:42:56,550 --> 00:42:59,340
But you actually have a lot of a
layer mic hanging there by this

774
00:42:59,340 --> 00:43:03,090
wire is between it's clicking
real microphone.

775
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:09,150
Yes. It's clipped onto the
windscreen. Yes. Could you could

776
00:43:09,150 --> 00:43:12,660
you turn on your speakers just a
little bit for me, John. Oh,

777
00:43:12,660 --> 00:43:15,150
sure. Because when I get excited
I hear myself.

778
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:21,240
Yeah, well, I think you do that
anyway. So now that sounds

779
00:43:21,240 --> 00:43:22,290
pretty cockamamie.

780
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:27,450
Well, what else? I mean, what am
I going to do with it like to

781
00:43:27,450 --> 00:43:32,040
tape it on my forehead or? Or
hold it with a pencil? You know?

782
00:43:33,060 --> 00:43:34,590
It's got to be hanging somehow.

783
00:43:35,159 --> 00:43:37,709
Yeah, no, I mean, it's just like
having a Ferrari pulled by a

784
00:43:37,709 --> 00:43:39,299
donkey. It sounds like to me,

785
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,810
Well, this was an expensive set.
This was like 700 bucks. This is

786
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:46,080
this is a real a real set for
the Lavalier Yeah, and and it's

787
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:47,610
with rivets. And so I literally
had

788
00:43:47,610 --> 00:43:51,270
Johnny Mike Thank you. But I
thought you'd have it. Go to

789
00:43:51,270 --> 00:43:53,370
yourself to maybe some wireless
and you'd be walking around the

790
00:43:53,370 --> 00:43:55,230
house. I can but then I can

791
00:43:55,229 --> 00:43:57,779
just that I couldn't hear you
because I don't have the return

792
00:43:57,779 --> 00:43:59,999
wireless so I guess I could put
on put Bluetooth Bluetooth

793
00:43:59,999 --> 00:44:00,659
headset on

794
00:44:01,170 --> 00:44:05,460
or something. But anyway, it's
people have commented that you

795
00:44:05,460 --> 00:44:08,730
sound better on this lavalier
than you do on the PR 40 Yep.

796
00:44:10,140 --> 00:44:12,930
You I think you I think it's
maybe because you're so

797
00:44:12,930 --> 00:44:19,440
naturally bassy that you don't
need a lot of you don't need to

798
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,710
overdo it because a PR 40 I
think emphasises the low end

799
00:44:22,740 --> 00:44:23,160
Yeah.

800
00:44:23,159 --> 00:44:27,629
And it becomes a little woolly
on my voice. But anyway.

801
00:44:28,260 --> 00:44:32,460
Yeah, you need what you need is
a notch filter. On knotch

802
00:44:32,460 --> 00:44:34,740
filter. Yeah. What's that?

803
00:44:35,670 --> 00:44:38,970
You want to this thing that
notch Do you have one of the

804
00:44:38,970 --> 00:44:42,570
sound guys I used to work with
explained it to me that most

805
00:44:42,570 --> 00:44:45,750
people have a little goose
called Mud down at the low end

806
00:44:45,750 --> 00:44:48,450
of their voice and they viewed
notch it out and I think the

807
00:44:48,450 --> 00:44:54,450
knotch you want to not just from
200 to 400 Hertz. You just want

808
00:44:54,450 --> 00:44:57,420
to take that just want to take
that out and you just notch it

809
00:44:57,420 --> 00:44:59,760
out with a notch filter and then
you get it cleans up your it

810
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:03,090
makes you Much more. You
understand, you know, you're

811
00:45:03,090 --> 00:45:04,710
just more crystal clear.

812
00:45:04,980 --> 00:45:08,940
I do filter my microphone and I
have taken some of that out. But

813
00:45:09,240 --> 00:45:12,090
you know, it's just an EQ. I
don't call it a notch filter.

814
00:45:12,180 --> 00:45:12,600
Yeah. But

815
00:45:12,599 --> 00:45:15,449
notching is better because he
could pull it exact frequencies

816
00:45:15,479 --> 00:45:17,969
and yield they're gone. They're
never they don't come through at

817
00:45:17,969 --> 00:45:20,369
all. It's not like they're
they're rolled off or anything

818
00:45:20,369 --> 00:45:23,369
that like any, you know,
equalised roll, he kind of turns

819
00:45:23,369 --> 00:45:26,339
things into a curve and pushes
it down, but it's still there.

820
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:28,530
I'm looking at in my,

821
00:45:29,850 --> 00:45:33,150
in my sound filters, I don't see
anything called a knotch filter,

822
00:45:33,150 --> 00:45:33,480
though.

823
00:45:35,639 --> 00:45:36,989
No, I'm shooting get one.

824
00:45:37,020 --> 00:45:40,470
I mean, I'm kind of torn because
at the new place, I want to go

825
00:45:40,470 --> 00:45:45,270
really minimalistic. So all I
want is 119 inch rack, I don't

826
00:45:45,270 --> 00:45:48,150
have to have all this 19 inch
gear but not in a rack. So I'm

827
00:45:48,150 --> 00:45:51,300
going to you know, there's like
five or six things I just want,

828
00:45:51,420 --> 00:45:54,420
you know, great compressors and
things not not using them now.

829
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,540
And then I want really just you
know, it's my laptop. I've got

830
00:45:57,540 --> 00:46:00,750
my fader Fox MIDI controller,
you know, a microphone and

831
00:46:00,750 --> 00:46:03,420
that's it and everything, no
more wires, you know, just get

832
00:46:03,420 --> 00:46:05,130
rid of all this shit. Well, you

833
00:46:05,130 --> 00:46:07,230
need the wire hooked to the
lead. Here's what I would,

834
00:46:07,260 --> 00:46:10,860
here's what I would recommend
visually, for the minimalistic

835
00:46:10,890 --> 00:46:15,960
studio that you're looking for.
Get yourself a mannequin like a

836
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:20,160
good looking one and have her
seated in a chair in the middle

837
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,730
of the room, which it has to be
stocked bear. And she's got

838
00:46:23,730 --> 00:46:26,700
nothing on. And then the
mannequin is holding a fishing

839
00:46:26,700 --> 00:46:31,440
reel, Rod rod and reel. And out
of the at the end of the real is

840
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:37,230
a wire hanging down with the lab
at the bottom. And you have just

841
00:46:37,230 --> 00:46:41,040
a folding chair that you sit in
front of the lab at the end of

842
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:45,060
the reel and you just tuck into
it. Okay, that would be cool.

843
00:46:46,020 --> 00:46:49,200
Yeah, yeah, people don't know.
But you know, John sits in a lot

844
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:53,340
of programming meetings at WME
VO and whenever, whenever

845
00:46:53,340 --> 00:46:56,730
there's a brainstorming session,
John always resorts to Yeah,

846
00:46:56,730 --> 00:47:00,660
let's do auditions with hookers.
It's always the same with you.

847
00:47:01,020 --> 00:47:04,980
Yeah, let's do I got an idea. A
show with hookers. It's always

848
00:47:05,010 --> 00:47:06,030
hookers with you

849
00:47:07,199 --> 00:47:08,099
never

850
00:47:10,469 --> 00:47:13,439
know, the thing is, is what is
that delighting up any meeting

851
00:47:13,439 --> 00:47:19,439
and I recommend this anybody out
there has the balls to do it. To

852
00:47:19,439 --> 00:47:21,419
lighten up any meeting and some
of these meetings are pretty

853
00:47:21,419 --> 00:47:26,099
dull. Just you you have to you
have to use the word hookers.

854
00:47:26,369 --> 00:47:30,479
Because it's funny, it always
gets a big laugh you have to

855
00:47:30,479 --> 00:47:32,549
admit brings into the house. It

856
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,450
was only like 10 minutes after
that you text me say Hey, call

857
00:47:36,450 --> 00:47:41,730
me so I can leave this meeting.
Which of course I dutifully did.

858
00:47:42,119 --> 00:47:45,839
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Thanks for
mentioning that. So make sure

859
00:47:45,839 --> 00:47:49,469
everyone knows luckily nobody in
that meeting will be listening

860
00:47:49,469 --> 00:47:53,219
to this show. Probably we we
have one fan at the at the

861
00:47:53,219 --> 00:47:54,599
company, which is Andrew.

862
00:47:55,140 --> 00:47:59,250
Oh grommet. Yeah, Andrew Romer
listens to everything he does,

863
00:47:59,310 --> 00:48:01,650
but this is the stuff that well
this is why Andrew started

864
00:48:02,190 --> 00:48:06,240
unsung hero by the way of the
Podcast Movement in my opinion,

865
00:48:06,660 --> 00:48:10,050
Andrew Gromit because he really
was the team leader and the end

866
00:48:10,050 --> 00:48:15,990
the catalyst behind iPod or
lemon which later became juiced

867
00:48:17,310 --> 00:48:23,820
and juice and and he and he got
into it because he liked he

868
00:48:23,820 --> 00:48:26,040
liked the whole idea of the
programming and so he wanted to

869
00:48:26,100 --> 00:48:31,410
essentially build the receiver
side and yeah Hey Andrew, shout

870
00:48:31,410 --> 00:48:31,680
out

871
00:48:33,510 --> 00:48:36,780
Yeah, well he'll come up G The
thing is always listening to

872
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:41,100
listen to these shows with a
timely manner not like you know

873
00:48:41,100 --> 00:48:43,770
everyone's well again, you know,
I listened that no agenda show

874
00:48:43,770 --> 00:48:46,200
from five months ago on you
know, you guys said about blah,

875
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,060
blah, blah. You're talking about

876
00:48:50,730 --> 00:48:52,980
you and I don't remember we're
talking about five minutes ago.

877
00:48:54,060 --> 00:48:58,110
So that's true. That's how you
do it. So what else is going on

878
00:48:58,110 --> 00:49:00,420
in the news over there? You said
the weather was cold.

879
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,420
Oh yeah, it's well as I said,
it's been it's the coldest since

880
00:49:03,420 --> 00:49:08,520
1976. We already went through
that flooding today massive

881
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,670
flooding and the rains are you
know, the heavens have opened up

882
00:49:11,700 --> 00:49:15,420
flooding. Yeah, flooding the
country is not not equipped for

883
00:49:15,420 --> 00:49:19,800
this kind of weather for the
global warming. So yeah, the

884
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,620
minute it really starts to rain
then you get massive flooding

885
00:49:22,620 --> 00:49:26,340
and people are stuck on
motorways for hours on end. It's

886
00:49:26,429 --> 00:49:29,489
every time I've been in London
where it's really has a big

887
00:49:29,489 --> 00:49:34,529
rainstorm like that the tubes
flood Yeah, yeah, the subways

888
00:49:34,529 --> 00:49:37,349
you can't get around town
because the subway line such and

889
00:49:37,349 --> 00:49:38,219
such beggars

890
00:49:38,219 --> 00:49:42,209
Yeah, Amarillo is the Bakerloo
line. Yeah, everything's

891
00:49:42,269 --> 00:49:46,829
everything's crippled. It's it's
a mess. But I gotta say, John,

892
00:49:46,889 --> 00:49:51,569
it's it is romantic and fun. The
city I'm excited about the move.

893
00:49:51,569 --> 00:49:55,049
I really am just a walker city
in general. I like just a city

894
00:49:55,049 --> 00:49:57,989
to be able to walk and get
places and get stuff quickly.

895
00:49:58,619 --> 00:49:59,939
Not drive and park

896
00:50:02,129 --> 00:50:04,919
After your car is towed away for
the umpteenth time

897
00:50:05,069 --> 00:50:07,409
getting rid of getting rid of
all the car I don't need the car

898
00:50:07,409 --> 00:50:08,429
anymore getting rid of it

899
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,810
don't want it to you're not
going to have any vehicle yeah

900
00:50:12,810 --> 00:50:13,260
one just

901
00:50:13,260 --> 00:50:18,090
my daughter's Twingo cuz we
bought that we just bought that

902
00:50:18,090 --> 00:50:20,490

904
00:50:23,220 --> 00:50:28,920

apartment. cleverly. So just

front.

906
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:33,420
I don't care. What but you need
to be and you

907
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,810

resident permit. Okay. Yeah,

908
00:50:37,140 --> 00:50:43,200
yeah. Yeah, there's Yes. There's
always parking. Yeah. Always

909
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,720
parking in our neighbourhood.
Yeah, it's beautiful.

910
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:48,600
Check it out.

911
00:50:50,850 --> 00:50:54,510
Let me see. Actually, I was
reading a BBC article here about

912
00:50:54,510 --> 00:51:02,070
Obama. Robert Gates, who is of
course the Defence Secretary, or

913
00:51:02,100 --> 00:51:05,640
the US equivalent of the
Minister of Defence in the

914
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:09,300
United States, who's been that
ever since Donald Rumsfeld

915
00:51:09,300 --> 00:51:13,500
resigned. So he's the guy mainly
responsible for the surge. And

916
00:51:13,500 --> 00:51:17,580
of course, he's staying on for
the Obama administration. Gee,

917
00:51:18,750 --> 00:51:24,210
that's some change. He says the
new president security team is

918
00:51:24,210 --> 00:51:27,060
ready to defend us national
interest from the moment he

919
00:51:27,060 --> 00:51:30,480
takes office next month. Mr.
Gates, who was staying in his

920
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,120
post said Middle East and Gulf
security would remain a key

921
00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:40,860
issue for the US. And he said
he's warning foes of America of

922
00:51:40,890 --> 00:51:45,030
testing Obama, this is a
throwback to the infamous Biden

923
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:49,110
ban. Yeah, be tested and you're
not gonna like what he does.

924
00:51:49,110 --> 00:51:49,470
Yeah.

925
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:55,410
So the guy is saying anyone who
thought that the upcoming months

926
00:51:55,410 --> 00:51:58,530
might present opportunities to
test the new administration

927
00:51:58,530 --> 00:52:02,460
would be sorely mistaken. Who
them's fightin words.

928
00:52:03,330 --> 00:52:04,590
sorely mistaken.

929
00:52:04,620 --> 00:52:05,910
That's what he says a quote.

930
00:52:06,659 --> 00:52:08,189
Let me surely miss you will

931
00:52:08,190 --> 00:52:10,560
be. So that's what my parents
used to say, you know, if you

932
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:16,110
don't come in, by eight o'clock.
He'll be if those street lights

933
00:52:16,110 --> 00:52:19,140
are on and you're asked isn't in
this house, Adam Clark curry.

934
00:52:19,830 --> 00:52:26,370
Yeah. That's kind of this kind
of freaky. You good things he

935
00:52:26,370 --> 00:52:26,700
knows.

936
00:52:26,699 --> 00:52:28,169
I don't know, I guess they're
gonna, you know, they're

937
00:52:28,169 --> 00:52:32,549
expecting something. Precisely.
I mean, they must know. And, you

938
00:52:32,549 --> 00:52:34,769
know, I don't know why they just
don't tell the public what they

939
00:52:34,769 --> 00:52:37,529
know. They know something.
Because I you know, I mean, a

940
00:52:37,529 --> 00:52:40,829
lot of times I think they, when
they reveal, I mean, every once

941
00:52:40,829 --> 00:52:42,149
in a while, they say, well,
there's going to be a terrible

942
00:52:42,149 --> 00:52:44,879
thing happening, you know, and
it's going to go down this way.

943
00:52:44,999 --> 00:52:48,269
It usually sorts the plot, but
they'd rather they rather see

944
00:52:48,269 --> 00:52:51,839
these plots unfold, you know, at
the risk of public, you know,

945
00:52:51,839 --> 00:52:55,409
death. And, well, why Well,

946
00:52:55,409 --> 00:52:59,219
I think there's a number of
things one is first of all, a

947
00:52:59,219 --> 00:53:01,889
lot of them are just idiots, you
know, like he needed a degree to

948
00:53:01,889 --> 00:53:05,579
become a politician. So they
just don't know any better you

949
00:53:05,579 --> 00:53:10,289
know, their actual senators who
who think that the US dollar is

950
00:53:10,289 --> 00:53:12,959
still backed by gold. I mean,
this is how dumb some of these

951
00:53:12,959 --> 00:53:15,509
people are. You can't say all of
them are because they're not

952
00:53:15,509 --> 00:53:19,979
clearly so they they just don't
know be there. They're under

953
00:53:19,979 --> 00:53:24,359
severe threat that the whole
financial bailout the economic

954
00:53:24,359 --> 00:53:30,179
stability act, you know, Paulson
literally went to went to to the

955
00:53:30,179 --> 00:53:33,089
Senate and the Congress and
said, hey, you know, if we don't

956
00:53:33,089 --> 00:53:35,519
pass this, it's all going to
come crashing down. We're gonna

957
00:53:35,519 --> 00:53:38,729
have martial law in the United
States. That's what he was

958
00:53:38,729 --> 00:53:41,429
telling he was threatening them
almost. So they don't know.

959
00:53:41,429 --> 00:53:45,299
Okay? So they don't understand.
They don't they don't know.

960
00:53:46,230 --> 00:53:48,900
And you don't know they don't
know.

961
00:53:48,929 --> 00:53:52,169
You know, me. I'm, I'm pretty
sure it's all planned.

962
00:53:52,889 --> 00:53:58,739
So let's get back to this sling
box. When you're going to hook

963
00:53:58,739 --> 00:54:02,309
us up when we get in the new
place. And what should I buy?

964
00:54:02,309 --> 00:54:04,559
Why I should have mine hooked up
I have five real life I'm gonna

965
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,710
give you virgin you're gonna
have virgin cable, which is

966
00:54:07,710 --> 00:54:12,900
stacked every channel is able to
access it because yeah, I have

967
00:54:12,900 --> 00:54:15,990
my own private cable box. That
no no,

968
00:54:15,989 --> 00:54:18,299
I'm saying what because I've
just noticed he had downloaded

969
00:54:18,299 --> 00:54:20,759
the newest software from sling
and they said well, you know,

970
00:54:21,089 --> 00:54:23,879
it's only good in the US you
can't use even though you did

971
00:54:23,879 --> 00:54:25,739
you download the same stuff. Oh,

972
00:54:26,159 --> 00:54:30,839
no, I have a sling box here. So
So I use my Slingbox my UK

973
00:54:31,529 --> 00:54:36,359
software to look at the at the
Detroit the Detroit one.

974
00:54:36,780 --> 00:54:40,290
Okay, it wasn't a problem. No,
they will look at my box easy.

975
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:42,330
You will do you have a box yet?

976
00:54:42,900 --> 00:54:46,380
Yeah, I know. I've got two I'm
gonna put one on the Send me

977
00:54:46,380 --> 00:54:49,260
your ID man. Well, I haven't
hooked it up. I'm gonna hook it

978
00:54:49,260 --> 00:54:53,550
up to what I realised is that I
have a Comcast, my you know, my

979
00:54:53,700 --> 00:54:56,370
internet connection is Comcast.
But to get the deal I got for

980
00:54:56,370 --> 00:55:00,000
the high speed. I also had to
get the cable but I don't you

981
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:02,310
Use the cable because I use the
Dish Network. What would I use?

982
00:55:02,310 --> 00:55:06,330
You know, the cable for? And so,
but I realised I can just hook

983
00:55:06,330 --> 00:55:09,540
the sling box onto the cable
directly. So listen, you got the

984
00:55:09,540 --> 00:55:13,830
software right there. You have
the software on the box. Yeah.

985
00:55:15,240 --> 00:55:17,310
It's on. No, it's not on this
machine. It's on another

986
00:55:17,310 --> 00:55:19,710
machine. Okay, because because I
have a

987
00:55:19,710 --> 00:55:20,640
Slingbox here.

988
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:22,380
Is it working? Yeah,

989
00:55:22,409 --> 00:55:25,709
that's what I hear. There's my
number. There's my ID. Okay, you

990
00:55:25,709 --> 00:55:25,859
can

991
00:55:26,130 --> 00:55:29,010
pick it up. Your ID is PNG. I
don't think so.

992
00:55:29,850 --> 00:55:32,460
No, it would be the what came
right after that.

993
00:55:33,989 --> 00:55:37,769
Okay, I'll give it a shot later.
But anyway, the point is, I'm

994
00:55:37,769 --> 00:55:42,179
just gonna hook this sling box
onto this Comcast cable, and

995
00:55:42,179 --> 00:55:45,479
you'll be just dedicated just
like yours. Yeah. To be looked

996
00:55:45,479 --> 00:55:46,229
at when you feel like

997
00:55:46,230 --> 00:55:48,150
Yeah, exactly. Yeah.

998
00:55:50,100 --> 00:55:53,010
So I was looking at my I do have
a bandwidth metre on because you

999
00:55:53,010 --> 00:55:55,800
can only with Comcast, you can
tell and I'm using Comcast,

1000
00:55:56,100 --> 00:55:57,510
your upload limit.

1001
00:55:58,980 --> 00:56:02,340
Not that I know there's a
there's like 250 gigabyte,

1002
00:56:02,460 --> 00:56:08,790
monthly limit. And I've been
monitoring it to see you because

1003
00:56:08,790 --> 00:56:11,430
they never tell you how much you
use. So for people out there

1004
00:56:11,430 --> 00:56:15,750
want to know I mean, general
usage of just general internet

1005
00:56:15,750 --> 00:56:19,050
surfing and doing stuff like
this once in a while. And these

1006
00:56:19,050 --> 00:56:23,340
other things are amounts to
about, you know, usually about a

1007
00:56:23,340 --> 00:56:28,470
half a gigabyte, a half a
gigabyte a day. Which gives you

1008
00:56:28,470 --> 00:56:32,580
a lot of leeway if you have 250
a month to play with. Yeah. When

1009
00:56:32,580 --> 00:56:38,190
you use the when I was hitting
the Slingbox a lot in Detroit. I

1010
00:56:38,190 --> 00:56:42,480
ended up pushing about two
gigabyte, two gigabytes a day.

1011
00:56:42,510 --> 00:56:45,870
Yeah. So that's what I'm
thinking is probably what you're

1012
00:56:45,870 --> 00:56:50,520
going to spend which is about
62. Maybe you could push it to

1013
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:55,770
100 Giga Bytes a month. Maybe if
you were doing a lot of a lot of

1014
00:56:55,770 --> 00:56:59,430
walking around that just simple
surfing. So it is still It seems

1015
00:56:59,430 --> 00:57:00,990
that they still give you a lot
of headroom.

1016
00:57:02,550 --> 00:57:06,390
Well, I have unlimited yoga,
dude.

1017
00:57:06,659 --> 00:57:08,849
I'm not worried. I have
unlimited.

1018
00:57:09,119 --> 00:57:12,629
Yeah, fine. Well, I have to be
because when you tack hit my

1019
00:57:12,629 --> 00:57:14,849
sling box and you just have to
leave it on all night because

1020
00:57:14,849 --> 00:57:17,519
you don't care. I want your
unlimited.

1021
00:57:18,929 --> 00:57:22,259
I don't care. Hey, dude, let's
just talk for one second about

1022
00:57:25,169 --> 00:57:27,659
black black Blagojevich,
whatever his name is.

1023
00:57:29,639 --> 00:57:32,849
The governor from Illinois.
Yeah,

1024
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,090
I can't pronounce his name
either. Blagojevich I think it

1025
00:57:36,090 --> 00:57:37,200
is like go do whatever. I

1026
00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:44,400
mean, is it just me or does
anyone see this as like a sign?

1027
00:57:45,870 --> 00:57:49,680
Does anyone get the you know,
this is the the nest where Obama

1028
00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:50,430
comes from?

1029
00:57:52,199 --> 00:57:54,929
Well, you know, somebody pointed
this out, interestingly enough.

1030
00:57:55,619 --> 00:57:56,369
Yeah. No

1031
00:57:56,370 --> 00:57:58,830
one's talking about that. Wait,

1032
00:57:58,830 --> 00:58:02,400
wait. It seems you know, they
sit they believe that Obama rose

1033
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:05,340
so quickly in Chicago politics
that he never really became that

1034
00:58:05,340 --> 00:58:08,490
much of the machine. And in
fact, when he was talking about

1035
00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:12,330
the overheard conversations with
the FBI, where they were calling

1036
00:58:12,330 --> 00:58:16,620
him and, you know, cussing about
him, because he wasn't going to

1037
00:58:16,620 --> 00:58:20,970
play ball. Obama gave up. I
don't know if you saw it, but

1038
00:58:20,970 --> 00:58:23,670
when he came out, and when you
saw him giving his talk about

1039
00:58:23,670 --> 00:58:26,130
well, you know, these guys, I
got nothing to do with it. You

1040
00:58:26,130 --> 00:58:30,510
can tell by the conversations. I
didn't. He had a real smug look

1041
00:58:30,510 --> 00:58:34,320
on his face. Like yeah, didn't
catch me didn't catch me. Touch

1042
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,510
me on this one. This is not
that. Yeah.

1043
00:58:37,500 --> 00:58:40,770
But it's just amazing. You know,
just just to read some of the

1044
00:58:40,770 --> 00:58:45,540
transcripts. And and what this
guy and his wife to what looks

1045
00:58:45,540 --> 00:58:47,400
like a real bitch.

1046
00:58:48,750 --> 00:58:49,530
Now Oh.

1047
00:58:52,770 --> 00:58:55,860
Well, I'm just kind of bad. You
know, Jesse Jackson, Jr. I guess

1048
00:58:55,860 --> 00:58:58,440
caught got caught up in it most
recently because somebody is I

1049
00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:01,560
guess we wanted to collect a
million dollars to get him the

1050
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:06,690
job. And I've met him. He's
really a nice guy. You know, you

1051
00:59:06,690 --> 00:59:10,290
maybe I don't know what part of
the machine he is. But I sure

1052
00:59:10,290 --> 00:59:13,230
got screwed in this deal. He'll
never get anything like that now

1053
00:59:13,230 --> 00:59:15,750
and now under the cloud of
suspicion, even though he

1054
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:17,310
probably had nothing to do with
it.

1055
00:59:17,489 --> 00:59:20,219
But but you know, the whole fact
that That's literally how this

1056
00:59:20,219 --> 00:59:22,649
shit is done. You know, you
know, that's the way it goes is

1057
00:59:22,649 --> 00:59:25,199
that these seats are traded that
way. That's not the way

1058
00:59:25,199 --> 00:59:28,499
government works. So that is
almost proof that fascism

1059
00:59:28,529 --> 00:59:35,069
Fascism is rape is rampant in
the US political system, because

1060
00:59:35,069 --> 00:59:39,089
it's corporatism interwoven with
government done. Yes. Corporate

1061
00:59:39,090 --> 00:59:45,330
corporatism for sure and of I
don't know, bad Patricia's

1062
00:59:45,570 --> 00:59:45,930
point.

1063
00:59:46,529 --> 00:59:49,349
My point is is that you know,
everyone's like, Oh, well, okay.

1064
00:59:50,279 --> 00:59:52,859
Yeah, well, that's because we're
getting jaded I mean, this good.

1065
00:59:52,859 --> 00:59:55,439
They're gonna hound this guy. I
mean, it's interesting that this

1066
00:59:55,439 --> 00:59:58,079
guy, you know that you have the
collapse of that $50 billion

1067
00:59:58,649 --> 01:00:01,619
Ponzi scheme guy. And then you
had this happened at about the

1068
01:00:01,619 --> 01:00:04,199
same time and it's like people
don't you know that what should

1069
01:00:04,199 --> 01:00:06,869
we be talking about with Darien
near the Obamas in the mix

1070
01:00:06,869 --> 01:00:10,919
somehow? Just a lot of bad news.
It seems just like one thing

1071
01:00:10,919 --> 01:00:11,759
after another.

1072
01:00:12,809 --> 01:00:17,099
We have we have someone at the
at the office to go on named,

1073
01:00:17,489 --> 01:00:23,249
who is a massive, massive Obama
supporter. And I can know who

1074
01:00:23,249 --> 01:00:29,099
that is. Well, you do. And at a
recent company meeting she was

1075
01:00:29,099 --> 01:00:33,329
talking about how excited she
was that were you there? Were

1076
01:00:33,329 --> 01:00:36,509
you at the at the at the all
hands meeting? Yeah, he was so

1077
01:00:36,509 --> 01:00:39,629
excited because she has front
row seats to the inauguration.

1078
01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:42,750
Yeah. But I mean, she's a huge
fan.

1079
01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:47,010
She's gonna be so disappointed.
I feel so bad for what

1080
01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:49,440
you mean. She's gonna be
disappointed in the two or three

1081
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:50,160
years from now.

1082
01:00:50,489 --> 01:00:56,459
Six months from now, dude. Two
or three years, please.

1083
01:00:58,770 --> 01:01:02,850
I would say and I'll put this
down as a as a Okay, here it

1084
01:01:02,850 --> 01:01:09,180
comes gentleman's bet. Okay. Six
months from now. She's not going

1085
01:01:09,180 --> 01:01:11,580
to be disappointed. And Obama's
going to look like the greatest

1086
01:01:11,580 --> 01:01:12,600
thing since sliced bread.

1087
01:01:12,630 --> 01:01:17,280
Okay, I'll take that one. You
got it? Well, okay, well hold on

1088
01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:21,870
a second, will it because she's
been hypnotised into believing

1089
01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:24,450
because it because a lot of you
know, it'd be a very positive

1090
01:01:24,900 --> 01:01:25,620
time.

1091
01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:30,600
In general you think is going to
be so we will not be at war?

1092
01:01:31,619 --> 01:01:33,749
Well, I'm not saying that we're
at war now. And I don't think

1093
01:01:33,749 --> 01:01:38,099
he's gonna pull out although he
could. I think I just know, six

1094
01:01:38,099 --> 01:01:40,529
months out, I'm gonna make this
assertion that six months from

1095
01:01:40,529 --> 01:01:44,279
now, things are gonna be really
he's gonna be everyone's gonna

1096
01:01:44,279 --> 01:01:47,309
be very happy with Obama. Okay,
you're gonna have a high rating

1097
01:01:47,309 --> 01:01:48,119
and all the rest of it.

1098
01:01:48,300 --> 01:01:52,470
Okay, well, that you got that
bed, my friend. Now, but you

1099
01:01:52,470 --> 01:01:55,470
don't think so. Now, of course,
first of all 20,000 troops are

1100
01:01:55,470 --> 01:01:58,140
going to go to Afghanistan,
we're going to have a whole

1101
01:01:58,140 --> 01:02:01,470
bunch of crap going down in
Pakistan, India is going to be

1102
01:02:01,470 --> 01:02:04,770
on our side, there's going to be
the question is how well it will

1103
01:02:04,770 --> 01:02:10,650
be reported. If you even know
what's happening. I believe that

1104
01:02:10,650 --> 01:02:14,160
we're really going to be in a in
a in some kind of quagmire with

1105
01:02:14,910 --> 01:02:18,900
this EU regulation both because
you know, you can't you can,

1106
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:23,310
maybe the US could separate on
climate and say, Okay, we want

1107
01:02:23,310 --> 01:02:27,390
to do climate this way or that
way. You know, Bush declined to

1108
01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:33,090
ratify the Kyoto Protocol. But
when it comes to economics, and

1109
01:02:33,090 --> 01:02:36,270
now that they're intertwined, I
don't think the US can get away

1110
01:02:36,270 --> 01:02:39,990
with not being a part of the
whole carbon credit scheme. And

1111
01:02:39,990 --> 01:02:43,650
that is going to affect us. It
really will or the US it will it

1112
01:02:43,650 --> 01:02:45,870
will severely affect that. I
don't think it's going to be a

1113
01:02:45,870 --> 01:02:47,910
happy time in six months from
now. Now.

1114
01:02:48,060 --> 01:02:51,720
No right now. We'll go over it
in six months. What would that

1115
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:56,850
date been? Do we have it? June
let's make it June 30. June

1116
01:02:56,850 --> 01:03:01,680
30. Okay. That's good. When I'm
bringing you food.

1117
01:03:04,020 --> 01:03:06,600
We have a deli. Yeah, that's
true. You got

1118
01:03:06,599 --> 01:03:07,499
plenty of pepper,

1119
01:03:08,639 --> 01:03:11,399
deli and he has a lot of cured
and eat

1120
01:03:12,060 --> 01:03:16,080
cured meats. So you could go on
Letterman and actually know your

1121
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:16,770
cuts of meat.

1122
01:03:17,219 --> 01:03:24,239
I could, yeah, I'm one of the
few. So So I brought back from

1123
01:03:24,689 --> 01:03:31,559
Portugal a very strange piece of
meat cured meat. In Portugal,

1124
01:03:31,559 --> 01:03:33,839
they make this this sausage
called the end, which is

1125
01:03:33,869 --> 01:03:37,559
generically in the United States
called Ling Louisa and all the

1126
01:03:37,559 --> 01:03:40,169
linguistic providers around here
and I told the story when I was

1127
01:03:40,169 --> 01:03:42,239
over there, by the way, and
everyone was kind of interested

1128
01:03:42,239 --> 01:03:47,699
in the story. We when I was a
kid, I was lived most of my

1129
01:03:47,729 --> 01:03:52,109
childhood youth in Newark,
California. And Newark,

1130
01:03:52,319 --> 01:03:55,379
California was a I didn't
realise it at the time. I'm

1131
01:03:55,379 --> 01:03:58,169
looking back on it. Now, I
obviously was kind of a

1132
01:03:58,169 --> 01:04:03,809
settlement at one point for the
Portuguese expats from the 30s

1133
01:04:03,809 --> 01:04:07,649
or 40s, or something. And so the
Tao was mostly Portuguese

1134
01:04:07,649 --> 01:04:11,459
everyone who was named, you
know, fritas or Silva Silva or

1135
01:04:12,149 --> 01:04:17,819
bogus and there's a bunch of
different PLGA is bogus, bogus.

1136
01:04:18,449 --> 01:04:21,659
And anyway, there's all these
ports and they're all

1137
01:04:21,719 --> 01:04:26,789
Portuguese. And so one of the
things that was I was raised,

1138
01:04:27,089 --> 01:04:29,429
because they just have these
events on Saturday, were dances

1139
01:04:29,429 --> 01:04:31,769
and whatever at this big hall,
they when they would cook

1140
01:04:31,769 --> 01:04:34,439
outside, they would cook the
sausage, which was this exact

1141
01:04:34,649 --> 01:04:39,869
linguica sausage. And instead of
hot dogs ate these things, and

1142
01:04:39,869 --> 01:04:43,619
there's about six factories, or
maybe as many as 20 at one time

1143
01:04:43,619 --> 01:04:48,119
in the area that made this
sausage just Ling Lisa over the

1144
01:04:48,119 --> 01:04:52,019
year is a lost favour. It's too
expensive. And it also is

1145
01:04:52,019 --> 01:04:54,899
difficult to make because part
of the process is has to be a

1146
01:04:55,049 --> 01:05:00,629
kind of a wine cured meat that's
in the sausage and And so

1147
01:05:00,629 --> 01:05:03,659
anyway, they, these places
became less and less and it was

1148
01:05:03,659 --> 01:05:08,129
one left in San Leandro. That
was the best called Santos. And

1149
01:05:08,129 --> 01:05:11,819
Santos made a turn. One of the
great it was one of the lat it

1150
01:05:11,819 --> 01:05:15,989
was the last great California
Ling Lisa. But because of the

1151
01:05:15,989 --> 01:05:20,489
process for making it, which
goes back in time, it was

1152
01:05:20,489 --> 01:05:24,929
illegal to do the process by
Health Department standards.

1153
01:05:25,110 --> 01:05:28,200
What was so illegal about it? I
don't know. Not enough, Melanie,

1154
01:05:28,230 --> 01:05:28,590
I'd have to

1155
01:05:28,590 --> 01:05:30,810
go back and find the records.
But I think it had to do with

1156
01:05:30,810 --> 01:05:32,790
the curing or leaving the meat
out or

1157
01:05:32,790 --> 01:05:35,040
you need to you need to put more
melamine in it.

1158
01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:42,870
Right. Yeah, that would be okay.
Anyway, so. So the guy kept

1159
01:05:42,870 --> 01:05:45,180
getting harassed by the Health
Department. And one day he

1160
01:05:45,180 --> 01:05:47,040
flipped out and killed two of
them.

1161
01:05:47,100 --> 01:05:50,220
Excellent. That's what everybody
in Portugal.

1162
01:05:51,060 --> 01:05:55,020
Excellent. Yeah, of course.
People are crazy.

1163
01:05:55,380 --> 01:05:59,850
So they drew the guy in jail as
a murderer. And then he bad

1164
01:05:59,850 --> 01:06:02,550
time, like a year or two ago,
and I never got the recipe.

1165
01:06:03,450 --> 01:06:05,880
Oh, shit. Now that really sucks.

1166
01:06:06,300 --> 01:06:09,570
Well, then when I go to
Portugal, it turns out that this

1167
01:06:09,570 --> 01:06:12,660
recipe, which I thought was just
because lingua means sausage,

1168
01:06:12,660 --> 01:06:13,050
it's

1169
01:06:13,049 --> 01:06:17,489
like the pancakes of Portugal.
Yeah. Every I

1170
01:06:17,489 --> 01:06:19,439
mean, this sausage is
everywhere. I mean, it's not

1171
01:06:19,439 --> 01:06:22,319
like a secret how to make this
stuff is complicated. There's a

1172
01:06:22,319 --> 01:06:24,779
place up in Oregon for anyone
out there wants to try googling

1173
01:06:24,779 --> 01:06:28,979
Guiza called tailors. And you
can look it up and to and tailor

1174
01:06:28,979 --> 01:06:32,789
chips. And they and they have a
credible linguist that in fact,

1175
01:06:32,789 --> 01:06:34,739
when I'm in Washington, I
usually stop at one of the

1176
01:06:34,739 --> 01:06:37,739
stores that carries it and buy
stock up on this stuff, and then

1177
01:06:37,739 --> 01:06:39,899
bring it down to California
where I should be able to get

1178
01:06:39,899 --> 01:06:43,589
good Ling WESA, but I can't,
it's either too grainy or it

1179
01:06:43,589 --> 01:06:46,589
doesn't have that right soaked
meat taste or whatever, where

1180
01:06:46,589 --> 01:06:49,649
it's not chunky, there's a lot
of gristle in a good language.

1181
01:06:49,649 --> 01:06:53,579
So anyway, so But meanwhile, I'm
going to the store and this

1182
01:06:53,579 --> 01:06:56,939
woman is taking me around from
the Commerce Department of the

1183
01:06:56,939 --> 01:06:59,729
country, because I had to stop
at a store wherever I travel,

1184
01:06:59,729 --> 01:07:02,189
and she I'm looking for some
sausages to bring back or

1185
01:07:02,189 --> 01:07:05,909
something. And she points out
this strange thing, which is

1186
01:07:05,909 --> 01:07:09,959
kind of like, the ultimate is
not a linguist. It's a big like

1187
01:07:09,959 --> 01:07:13,649
a salami, but it's, it's made in
the same way. So it's

1188
01:07:13,649 --> 01:07:16,229
essentially and there's nothing
else in there. But the beat, but

1189
01:07:16,229 --> 01:07:18,659
the meat itself, which is
obviously cured in some way,

1190
01:07:18,659 --> 01:07:21,239
because the stuff is not even
refrigerated doesn't have to be

1191
01:07:21,419 --> 01:07:26,789
just, it is unbelievably
delicious. But you have to kind

1192
01:07:26,789 --> 01:07:29,549
of you have to boil it or cook.
I mean, it's just I haven't

1193
01:07:29,549 --> 01:07:32,819
figured out how to prepare it
properly. But it's like a, it's

1194
01:07:32,849 --> 01:07:37,199
this flavour. So my wife who has
the spice store, she's doing a

1195
01:07:37,199 --> 01:07:42,239
lot of research, and she is
working on a book on spices, she

1196
01:07:42,269 --> 01:07:46,679
makes the assertion using that
word again, that most of these

1197
01:07:46,679 --> 01:07:49,979
cured meats and Salamis and all
these things that have been that

1198
01:07:49,979 --> 01:07:55,019
had been perfected over the
years. Spices weren't used

1199
01:07:55,079 --> 01:07:57,869
necessarily for adding flavour.
Oh,

1200
01:07:58,170 --> 01:08:01,140
it was for preservation of food.
Right, right.

1201
01:08:01,139 --> 01:08:06,149
And almost every one of these
crazy spices has some specific

1202
01:08:06,389 --> 01:08:11,219
characteristic dioxin kills some
sort of bacteria. Yes,

1203
01:08:11,220 --> 01:08:14,460
I love this. John, you have to
come out with that book. Because

1204
01:08:14,460 --> 01:08:17,700
this is what people are going to
need. We have to get away from

1205
01:08:17,700 --> 01:08:21,420
this crap that we call food that
has nothing to do with food.

1206
01:08:21,540 --> 01:08:27,150
It's either chemicals posing as
protein, like melamine, which by

1207
01:08:27,150 --> 01:08:30,930
the way, is now accepted
acceptable at 2.5 parts per

1208
01:08:30,930 --> 01:08:36,330
million by the Federal Food and
Drug Administration. Or it said

1209
01:08:36,330 --> 01:08:39,660
Jim, genetically modified, and
God knows what that's doing to

1210
01:08:39,660 --> 01:08:40,050
us.

1211
01:08:40,200 --> 01:08:43,800
Yeah, I know, you never know. So
anyway, so they so you end up

1212
01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:46,650
with these characteristics that
can't be duplicated unless you

1213
01:08:46,650 --> 01:08:49,770
follow the process. And so when
the health department by the

1214
01:08:49,770 --> 01:08:52,200
way, this is going to hit the EU
harder than it hits us and I

1215
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:53,910
talked about this when I was in
Portugal, what do you what

1216
01:08:53,910 --> 01:08:57,360
happens when some guy from
Brussels comes into Portugal and

1217
01:08:57,360 --> 01:08:59,460
say you can't make sausage that
way?

1218
01:08:59,460 --> 01:09:02,880
It's already happening. It's
called the Codex Alimentarius.

1219
01:09:02,910 --> 01:09:05,580
Yeah, you and that, I got to
start reading that, you know

1220
01:09:05,580 --> 01:09:08,790
what, you will never get through
it because it well, maybe you

1221
01:09:08,820 --> 01:09:11,580
because of course, you are a
chemical engineer and a health

1222
01:09:11,580 --> 01:09:15,810
inspector and coin collector and
all kinds of incredible careers

1223
01:09:15,810 --> 01:09:20,550
that you've had a coin. It's
very, very, very, very

1224
01:09:20,550 --> 01:09:24,540
technical. But they're out there
basically outlawing anything

1225
01:09:24,540 --> 01:09:25,470
good for you.

1226
01:09:26,670 --> 01:09:30,570
Well, or anything like these,
these classic old recipes, which

1227
01:09:30,570 --> 01:09:34,890
were designed to keep you from
getting SAS? Exactly, and maybe

1228
01:09:34,890 --> 01:09:39,000
points out and this is also in
the book, which is especially

1229
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:43,290
during the Middle Ages, where
you'd have one you know, feudal

1230
01:09:43,290 --> 01:09:45,540
Empire takeover and other the
first thing they do is they

1231
01:09:45,540 --> 01:09:48,930
steal the cooks. The cooks would
be the first guys and they'd

1232
01:09:48,930 --> 01:09:53,760
have to work for the new guy.
And if they poisoned him, he was

1233
01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:58,980
dead. The cook so you know, they
had so these recipes in these

1234
01:09:58,980 --> 01:10:01,770
developments. These these
procedures for making preserved

1235
01:10:01,770 --> 01:10:04,770
meat because it didn't have
refrigeration. And all these

1236
01:10:04,770 --> 01:10:07,500
things were designed not to make
you sick. They're designed to

1237
01:10:07,530 --> 01:10:08,220
keep you

1238
01:10:08,220 --> 01:10:11,820
alive. Yeah. And those processes
are being that this

1239
01:10:11,820 --> 01:10:14,820
guy Santos was using to make
this delicious delicious

1240
01:10:14,820 --> 01:10:19,770
linguica sausage we ate for
decades and never got sick. You

1241
01:10:19,770 --> 01:10:22,320
know, they wanted to mess with
it. It actually may have been a

1242
01:10:22,320 --> 01:10:30,420
threat to the public health
itself. Yes. Right, don't you

1243
01:10:30,420 --> 01:10:30,780
think?

1244
01:10:31,260 --> 01:10:36,420
Of course me look now you're in
my camp, you know? Are you

1245
01:10:36,420 --> 01:10:39,510
kidding me? I'm just rolling my
eyes thinking yeah. Oh, welcome

1246
01:10:39,510 --> 01:10:41,640
to the world of the of the
awakened John.

1247
01:10:42,150 --> 01:10:45,360
And if anyway, this reminds me
of the French who are

1248
01:10:45,750 --> 01:10:49,320
complaining bitterly especially
the guys who make various kinds

1249
01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:53,190
of goat cheese. And if you go to
France, anyone goes to the

1250
01:10:53,190 --> 01:10:55,500
French countryside did the last
thing you get at the end of your

1251
01:10:55,500 --> 01:10:57,990
meal and in any decent
restaurant or probably every

1252
01:10:57,990 --> 01:11:00,780
restaurant in France, at least
anyone that's a restaurant as

1253
01:11:00,780 --> 01:11:06,210
opposed to a bistro is a bro
out. Usually a platter filled

1254
01:11:06,210 --> 01:11:11,040
with local cheeses. And there
none of them are almost like

1255
01:11:11,070 --> 01:11:14,280
they just bought them out for
you. And there's like within

1256
01:11:14,280 --> 01:11:17,580
that group, there's always about
tangy goat cheeses which are

1257
01:11:17,580 --> 01:11:19,140
always marked by a funny shape
and

1258
01:11:19,290 --> 01:11:23,670
dusted with a pungent smell.
Well, the goat cheeses Yeah,

1259
01:11:23,730 --> 01:11:25,950
well the smells like some of
them. Some are pretty pungent.

1260
01:11:26,250 --> 01:11:28,860
Anyway, they have all these goat
cheeses and the way they make

1261
01:11:28,860 --> 01:11:31,440
the goat cheese in these places
is same thing they've been doing

1262
01:11:31,440 --> 01:11:33,990
it you know from handing it down
from father to son for a reason

1263
01:11:33,990 --> 01:11:36,780
and they use it they put the
cheese on a certain kind of wood

1264
01:11:36,810 --> 01:11:38,730
when they cure it and they do
this and they do that and they

1265
01:11:38,730 --> 01:11:39,870
have to fight they fall over. Oh

1266
01:11:39,870 --> 01:11:42,540
yeah, but that word isn't clean.
Oh no that can't.

1267
01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:46,380
Brussels inspectors come in.
They're sitting there telling

1268
01:11:46,380 --> 01:11:49,140
all the goat cheese makers in
France to get rid of the wood.

1269
01:11:49,140 --> 01:11:51,270
They do use plastic. Oh, of

1270
01:11:51,270 --> 01:11:56,100
course with melamine. There you
go. We're back to the melamine

1271
01:11:56,100 --> 01:11:57,870
now it's not right. It's just

1272
01:11:57,870 --> 01:12:02,760
It's just I find it kind of
depressing. You seem to be you

1273
01:12:02,760 --> 01:12:06,570
know, a mind that they think
they can beat the system. See,

1274
01:12:06,570 --> 01:12:06,780
that's

1275
01:12:06,780 --> 01:12:09,690
why I was so excited about this
about this Italian shop, you'll

1276
01:12:09,690 --> 01:12:13,710
see because they've got all
kinds of sausages and and, and

1277
01:12:13,710 --> 01:12:17,160
all different kinds of cuts of
meat. You know, it's real stuff.

1278
01:12:17,190 --> 01:12:20,340
It's not you know, they they
source it themselves.

1279
01:12:20,820 --> 01:12:23,400
Oh, great. Yeah, no, I'm sure
that's dynamite. You should just

1280
01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:24,480
shop no place else.

1281
01:12:24,510 --> 01:12:26,940
That's what I'm Thank you.
That's what I was trying to say

1282
01:12:26,940 --> 01:12:29,670
is, you know, I don't need to go
anywhere else. Everything they

1283
01:12:29,670 --> 01:12:33,600
have there is homemade. They've
got jars of stuff of you know,

1284
01:12:33,630 --> 01:12:38,070
any from horseradish. That's
homemade to you name it. Oh, no,

1285
01:12:38,070 --> 01:12:41,370
I'm very excited about it.
There's mine. Yeah, yeah, there

1286
01:12:41,370 --> 01:12:44,280
is indeed no reason to go shop
anywhere else right there as

1287
01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:48,060
fine. They don't sell cat food.
That's about it. They they sell

1288
01:12:48,060 --> 01:12:49,710
cattle they do not they did not.

1289
01:12:51,390 --> 01:12:54,990
So the thing is, I'm always
surprised by people there'll be

1290
01:12:54,990 --> 01:12:59,490
somebody that lives in that
block. That won't shop there.

1291
01:12:59,700 --> 01:13:02,940
Because rustic or something.

1292
01:13:03,930 --> 01:13:06,330
Bow because they're, they're
hooked on the shit.

1293
01:13:07,890 --> 01:13:10,500
It's always surprising to me
that you could be in some

1294
01:13:10,500 --> 01:13:12,960
neighbourhood and you can have
like the world's greatest little

1295
01:13:12,990 --> 01:13:16,500
store. And you won't support the
store you rather go to you know,

1296
01:13:16,500 --> 01:13:20,130
Safeway or something. Because
you just didn't know, I'd be

1297
01:13:20,130 --> 01:13:23,220
just baffling. And I think more
people get like that. And even

1298
01:13:23,220 --> 01:13:26,280
in the country, where they
should know better. They will

1299
01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:29,160
shop they won't shop in the
appropriate place when they have

1300
01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:32,850
the opportunity if you don't
have a choice. Yeah, great. But

1301
01:13:33,150 --> 01:13:35,340
when you have a choice, and when
you have a choice like that

1302
01:13:35,370 --> 01:13:36,240
little meet Mark,

1303
01:13:36,240 --> 01:13:39,600
no brainer. It's a no brainer.
And we have the farmers market

1304
01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:43,860
that comes once a week into the
high street. No, let's good.

1305
01:13:43,890 --> 01:13:49,650
Yeah. So Formula One is in
trouble.

1306
01:13:50,670 --> 01:13:54,900
Yeah, and that's funny. That's
funny. Did the math I mean, just

1307
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:56,640
losing their pants and they cost
like,

1308
01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:59,850
three 300 million a year for a
team just to just to

1309
01:13:59,850 --> 01:14:03,960
participate? Yeah, with all
costs pounds by by the way, if

1310
01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:09,510
you're a million pounds so
Honda's out what else was out

1311
01:14:09,510 --> 01:14:12,270
there was another like every
team is now saying I don't know

1312
01:14:12,270 --> 01:14:16,080
man. And what do you do if
you're a Formula One driver in

1313
01:14:16,110 --> 01:14:18,660
Formula One falls apart? What
your what do you what can you

1314
01:14:18,660 --> 01:14:26,250
really go and do as a car? On
NASCAR? I want to turn right I

1315
01:14:26,250 --> 01:14:27,330
want to turn right.

1316
01:14:29,010 --> 01:14:31,830
You know NASCAR is pretty
exciting. Have you ever driven

1317
01:14:31,830 --> 01:14:34,410
will have been in one of those
cars or get taken hot laps or

1318
01:14:34,410 --> 01:14:36,000
anything but it's pretty I

1319
01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:38,730
think I've driven just about
every not Formula One but I've

1320
01:14:38,730 --> 01:14:46,020
driven Indy NASCAR formula 2000
Haven't done rally rally doesn't

1321
01:14:46,350 --> 01:14:49,920
I was rally looks dangerous me.

1322
01:14:50,489 --> 01:14:54,509
So shall I do they guys on top
gear which is really probably

1323
01:14:54,509 --> 01:14:57,239
one of the best auto shows ever.
Yeah, you know, they got into a

1324
01:14:57,239 --> 01:15:00,599
fire I guess one of them drove a
Formula One car or something. In

1325
01:15:00,599 --> 01:15:03,899
a process of driving a Formula
One car, it's ridiculous. It's

1326
01:15:03,899 --> 01:15:06,749
fact it's not even like driving.
It's like every million push

1327
01:15:06,749 --> 01:15:09,659
buttons is like computer
programming. Well, they also

1328
01:15:09,659 --> 01:15:09,899
call

1329
01:15:09,900 --> 01:15:13,230
it they don't call you a driver.
They call you a pilot. Your

1330
01:15:13,230 --> 01:15:13,920
Formula One's

1331
01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:16,260
pilot ants. Yeah. Yeah. The

1332
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:19,650
trying to think I think

1333
01:15:19,650 --> 01:15:22,020
these guys would like to go into
NASCAR. Because in NASCAR, you

1334
01:15:22,020 --> 01:15:23,700
know, they do bump each other
quite a bit.

1335
01:15:25,140 --> 01:15:28,350
These guys like to swear to God,
if you talk to a Formula One

1336
01:15:28,350 --> 01:15:31,380
driver, they'll say, No, I like
to turn right once in a while.

1337
01:15:31,470 --> 01:15:32,910
That's what they all say. Yeah,
they say

1338
01:15:32,910 --> 01:15:36,180
that they're moaning and
groaning so what? No, you will

1339
01:15:36,180 --> 01:15:39,720
you'd like to turn right where
there's a bank? No. Would you

1340
01:15:39,720 --> 01:15:42,660
like to turn right where there's
like, you know, the poor house.

1341
01:15:44,100 --> 01:15:47,190
Well, there you go. That's a
good point. IndyCar was cool,

1342
01:15:47,190 --> 01:15:49,170
though. I drove IndyCar at the
end.

1343
01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:51,240
That was cool.

1344
01:15:51,540 --> 01:15:52,830
How fast did you get it up?

1345
01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:55,350
To speed that is

1346
01:15:55,379 --> 01:16:00,809
it didn't have a speedometer. So
I really don't know. If it's it

1347
01:16:00,809 --> 01:16:03,209
didn't that was but the night
yeah, that was that time. Yeah.

1348
01:16:03,449 --> 01:16:05,429
There's no like speedometer on
the Indy car.

1349
01:16:05,730 --> 01:16:09,660
They must they had a tack. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. Well, you

1350
01:16:09,660 --> 01:16:13,050
know, I was I was specifically
told not to read more than

1351
01:16:13,050 --> 01:16:13,830
10,000

1352
01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:16,620
Okay, well, then you could have
made the calculation find out

1353
01:16:16,620 --> 01:16:21,150
what the ratio of the rear end
and the van to gearbox and I was

1354
01:16:21,150 --> 01:16:23,400
number of PMS. You could have
figured out your speed.

1355
01:16:23,460 --> 01:16:28,830
Yeah, I was too busy looking at
the chicks and pit lane. had no

1356
01:16:28,830 --> 01:16:33,270
patience for that. But the
bailout for the car industry

1357
01:16:33,270 --> 01:16:35,610
hasn't happened. You know, this
is a worldwide thing. This is

1358
01:16:35,610 --> 01:16:39,270
not just the US. They're they're
big and they're big and over

1359
01:16:39,270 --> 01:16:42,630
here to the car companies.

1360
01:16:42,840 --> 01:16:47,700
Yeah, I heard that. I don't
know. I mean, you know, maybe if

1361
01:16:47,700 --> 01:16:48,180
they

1362
01:16:49,410 --> 01:16:51,930
Well, it's really interesting
because here's what I've seen.

1363
01:16:51,930 --> 01:16:52,860
So the

1364
01:16:53,190 --> 01:16:55,830
cars were such a commodity that
they would just have one hiccup

1365
01:16:55,830 --> 01:16:57,720
and the next thing you know,
these guys are all going out of

1366
01:16:57,720 --> 01:16:58,260
business.

1367
01:16:58,680 --> 01:17:02,250
Why? You know, there's there's a
lot of people tied in you know,

1368
01:17:02,250 --> 01:17:04,920
they're talking about the
supplies also, if the US

1369
01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:07,500
companies go down then the
supplies of certain raw

1370
01:17:07,500 --> 01:17:10,890
materials goes up so becomes a
real problem for everybody but

1371
01:17:11,250 --> 01:17:15,840
you know, parts and you know, a
lot of different manufacturers

1372
01:17:15,840 --> 01:17:18,390
in different countries make
parts for you know, for a lot of

1373
01:17:18,390 --> 01:17:21,660
auto companies so you know,
there's a fear that they could

1374
01:17:21,660 --> 01:17:26,250
go under of course dealerships
are huge so I I understand where

1375
01:17:26,250 --> 01:17:32,730
the fear comes from. But what's
kind of funny is that the the

1376
01:17:32,730 --> 01:17:36,480
Treasury who of course has this,
this tarp this, you know, this

1377
01:17:36,480 --> 01:17:39,630
700 billion little sliver
compared to what they've

1378
01:17:39,630 --> 01:17:43,590
actually spent of our money. And
they're saying, No, we don't

1379
01:17:43,590 --> 01:17:46,200
want to give any of that money
to the to the car companies, you

1380
01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:50,070
know, that's for our friends,
and you go find your own money.

1381
01:17:50,070 --> 01:17:52,830
We've got our supply right here.
We're not going to give it to

1382
01:17:52,830 --> 01:17:56,730
those guys, not to Detroit, no
way. But here was

1383
01:17:56,730 --> 01:17:59,880
a website that documented the
amount of money given to

1384
01:17:59,880 --> 01:18:03,390
Congress by both the banks and
the banking interests and the

1385
01:18:03,390 --> 01:18:07,530
car companies and it was like
something like 100 times more

1386
01:18:07,530 --> 01:18:11,280
money came from the banking
interests the bankers get barely

1387
01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:14,670
gave like a you know, anything
to Congress because they didn't

1388
01:18:14,670 --> 01:18:15,870
have a lot of money to give

1389
01:18:15,900 --> 01:18:19,860
but they're regretting that now.
Oh, yeah. Man we should have

1390
01:18:19,860 --> 01:18:24,000
been on was a K Street what is
that what is called street

1391
01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:28,560
Avenue K whatever. We're all the
lobbyists live

1392
01:18:29,070 --> 01:18:32,370
yeah, there's I don't know the
name of the street. But yeah,

1393
01:18:32,370 --> 01:18:35,220
there's some street as in
notorious, but, ya know,

1394
01:18:35,220 --> 01:18:38,550
obviously, the whole thing was
mismanage Do

1395
01:18:38,550 --> 01:18:40,830
you think they're still gonna
get some money? Do you think

1396
01:18:40,830 --> 01:18:40,950
they're

1397
01:18:41,430 --> 01:18:44,640
gonna get some everything make
him suffer first? You know, why,

1398
01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:47,040
if you gotta you got these guys
on the ropes and you're kind of

1399
01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:51,720
sadists you know, let's, let's
make them suffer, you know? And

1400
01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:54,810
then this will teach them a
lesson about not giving us

1401
01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:58,800
enough money for our campaigns.
Let's teach him a lesson that

1402
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:01,890
was to make him suffer to the
last second. Oh, that's a good

1403
01:19:01,890 --> 01:19:03,270
idea, Jim. Okay.

1404
01:19:05,130 --> 01:19:06,240
It's our money though. Dude.

1405
01:19:07,830 --> 01:19:09,360
Our money? Yeah.

1406
01:19:10,470 --> 01:19:13,650
It's not it's our it was our
money.

1407
01:19:14,490 --> 01:19:20,460
You asked me last week about the
Lisbon Treaty. Right. So here's

1408
01:19:20,460 --> 01:19:24,240
the headline from the Daily
Mail. EU leaders agree on bribes

1409
01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:27,810
to convince Irish voters to vote
yes to treaty at second

1410
01:19:27,810 --> 01:19:34,170
referendum. Does that kind of
sum it up for you? Well, the

1411
01:19:34,170 --> 01:19:36,000
Daily Mail, yeah,

1412
01:19:36,270 --> 01:19:39,090
but, you know, it's essentially
what so they're gonna do another

1413
01:19:39,090 --> 01:19:40,440
referendum. It's like,

1414
01:19:40,470 --> 01:19:42,900
yeah, they're gonna tell you
what up. My experience has

1415
01:19:42,900 --> 01:19:46,530
always been always reminds me of
a guy who used to be a gas

1416
01:19:46,530 --> 01:19:51,390
station owner in Niles,
California. And as I George Warm

1417
01:19:51,390 --> 01:19:54,060
Springs, one of these old little
Berg's who used to run for

1418
01:19:54,060 --> 01:19:57,150
office all the time, and you'd
see his name on every ballot. He

1419
01:19:57,180 --> 01:20:01,410
just gets soundly whipped.
Because he was is a dud and so

1420
01:20:01,410 --> 01:20:05,040
one day he ran for the board of
the BART thing before they built

1421
01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:08,940
a BART rat barrier rapid transit
and in for some reason or other

1422
01:20:08,940 --> 01:20:13,920
he got in and it was just like
my I mean whether he was any

1423
01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:16,980
good as a BART director I don't
know I can't remember like

1424
01:20:16,980 --> 01:20:20,730
probably not but but the point
is is that he just kept going

1425
01:20:20,730 --> 01:20:23,610
over and over you keep putting
it in there putting it in there.

1426
01:20:24,180 --> 01:20:27,870
If you keep you can review Rand
as the Irish were refused to

1427
01:20:27,870 --> 01:20:31,590
vote this in 20 times in a row
they were 21 Yes, it's like you

1428
01:20:31,590 --> 01:20:33,630
know that's flipped for it now
let's do two out of three No,

1429
01:20:33,630 --> 01:20:36,270
no, no, let's do five three out
of five. No, no, no, no. You

1430
01:20:36,270 --> 01:20:39,780
give you do this for in an
infinite period of time. It will

1431
01:20:39,780 --> 01:20:41,940
get through it's just as basic
corruption.

1432
01:20:42,150 --> 01:20:45,210
Yeah, well, thank you. That's
why the headline says it all

1433
01:20:45,210 --> 01:20:50,670
bribes corruption. Thank you.
Meanwhile, that that check guy

1434
01:20:50,670 --> 01:20:54,480
that's going to be funny when he
takes over because little known

1435
01:20:54,480 --> 01:20:59,460
fact, the Czech Republic has
also not ratified the then they

1436
01:20:59,460 --> 01:21:02,730
don't have a referendum but they
haven't ratified it. The Lisbon

1437
01:21:02,730 --> 01:21:06,810
Treaty, and this guy is a very
strong opponent, or at least

1438
01:21:06,810 --> 01:21:09,630
that's the way he's been
speaking as of late. And if any

1439
01:21:09,630 --> 01:21:13,320
big he will become president of
the EU very soon, I believe.

1440
01:21:13,919 --> 01:21:17,339
Oh, maybe he'll stave off or
push away the you know this the

1441
01:21:17,369 --> 01:21:21,599
grander scheme? Maybe he'll get
fascinated seems fine to me.

1442
01:21:21,630 --> 01:21:22,860
Now. He's gonna get killed.

1443
01:21:24,090 --> 01:21:24,900
Out. Okay.

1444
01:21:26,850 --> 01:21:28,350
Do you think by June 30, they

1445
01:21:28,350 --> 01:21:32,370
have put it down put me down for
a dead check by June 30. Okay.

1446
01:21:33,450 --> 01:21:36,990
What did you have by June 3 I
Obama, everybody happy? And I'm

1447
01:21:36,990 --> 01:21:41,640
saying Anyway, happy. I'm saying
nobody happy. And we got a dead

1448
01:21:41,670 --> 01:21:42,510
dead check.

1449
01:21:42,810 --> 01:21:45,420
I'm not gonna argue well, no,
actually, I'll argue against a

1450
01:21:45,420 --> 01:21:47,940
dead check. I think Did he
though? Keep them alive. Keep

1451
01:21:47,940 --> 01:21:51,960
them alive. Yeah. Okay. But what
they'll do is they'll persuade

1452
01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:54,750
him to see the error of his
ways. Yeah,

1453
01:21:54,870 --> 01:21:58,950
I hear that the Saakashvili the
the Georgian Prime Minister is

1454
01:21:58,950 --> 01:22:00,090
getting kicked out though.

1455
01:22:01,440 --> 01:22:03,480
It's about time. Yeah. Well,

1456
01:22:03,780 --> 01:22:06,840
and and and, you know, they've
all agreed now that yeah, we

1457
01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:10,740
started it. Of course, no one
gives a shit. Okay.

1458
01:22:10,890 --> 01:22:13,230
They all agree that we started
it the GA and

1459
01:22:13,230 --> 01:22:15,540
started it. Yeah, they're the
minister. They're now in the

1460
01:22:15,540 --> 01:22:18,660
parliament saying, Well, yeah,
we kind of started bombing

1461
01:22:18,660 --> 01:22:21,330
first. But the Russians were
ready for us.

1462
01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:26,790
So meanwhile, of course, me, I
didn't know this, by the way. So

1463
01:22:26,790 --> 01:22:29,190
meanwhile, our media, nobody
picks up on this because we

1464
01:22:29,190 --> 01:22:31,290
still think Russia is the bad
guy in this thing. And they are

1465
01:22:31,290 --> 01:22:33,630
they just admitted guilt. But
nobody cares. Is that what

1466
01:22:33,630 --> 01:22:34,050
you're saying?

1467
01:22:34,079 --> 01:22:36,569
That's what I'm saying. Great.

1468
01:22:37,110 --> 01:22:37,920
That's what I'm saying.

1469
01:22:38,400 --> 01:22:42,990
Another moment of enlightenment.
Because if people followed our

1470
01:22:42,990 --> 01:22:44,190
show, they would know they would

1471
01:22:44,190 --> 01:22:47,100
know all this stuff. Yeah. Well,
that's why we got to 200,000

1472
01:22:47,100 --> 01:22:51,240
people listening by the way,
it's not enough. We need more

1473
01:22:51,240 --> 01:22:55,680
and we'd like you. Yes, you.
We'd like you to tell a friend.

1474
01:22:56,010 --> 01:22:57,090
Turn them on to our show.

1475
01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:03,420
Give them a copy. Yeah, burn a
copy. Burn a copy and give it to

1476
01:23:03,420 --> 01:23:06,270
a friend say listen to these two
idiots. Maybe they you're either

1477
01:23:06,270 --> 01:23:07,620
on to something. Yeah, you'd
like

1478
01:23:07,620 --> 01:23:11,640
wind. Here. Listen to the Wind.
You got the right play like wind

1479
01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:15,810
pepper. Do you like do you like
sausage? This is the show for

1480
01:23:15,810 --> 01:23:16,140
you?

1481
01:23:16,770 --> 01:23:20,010
Yeah, we're, we're Yeah, let's
see we have we haven't. By the

1482
01:23:20,010 --> 01:23:22,020
way. You don't want to give the
show to a vegan?

1483
01:23:22,350 --> 01:23:27,330
No, please. Bad idea. Or
Canadian? Apparently, man. We

1484
01:23:27,330 --> 01:23:30,660
pissed off a lot of Canadians
last week. What from from what?

1485
01:23:30,780 --> 01:23:33,150
Well, everyone's like you don't
know shit about Canada. You

1486
01:23:33,150 --> 01:23:34,590
don't know how it works. This
was not

1487
01:23:35,490 --> 01:23:37,560
a thing they're doing up there.
We don't know anything was yeah,

1488
01:23:37,560 --> 01:23:41,580
that's why we got to Detroit.
Let's explain. That's how we got

1489
01:23:41,580 --> 01:23:45,990
the Detroit sling bird toys.
That's right. Yes. He gets to

1490
01:23:45,990 --> 01:23:50,040
Canadian channels. He gets the
CBC and something else. And

1491
01:23:50,040 --> 01:23:52,980
we're gonna watch Canadian
television and catch up. This is

1492
01:23:52,980 --> 01:23:56,970
how we're responsible. We are as
to podcasters.

1493
01:23:57,000 --> 01:23:59,400
Yeah, we're actually taking time
out of our day to get on the

1494
01:23:59,400 --> 01:24:04,260
crappy sling box, which has been
kindly offered to us by a no

1495
01:24:04,260 --> 01:24:09,900
agenda listener whose name I'm
looking up as we speak. You

1496
01:24:09,900 --> 01:24:11,490
better keep talking because at
Gmail, I

1497
01:24:12,060 --> 01:24:15,390
just I just wondering, I'm still
trying to say why you'd call it

1498
01:24:15,390 --> 01:24:18,510
a crappy Yes. device. When
earlier in the show you praised

1499
01:24:18,510 --> 01:24:18,720
it. That's

1500
01:24:19,440 --> 01:24:23,070
what I'm saying is it's extra
effort. extra effort. We are

1501
01:24:23,070 --> 01:24:26,250
taking the effort. Okay. Andrew
Thompson. There you go. Yeah.

1502
01:24:26,669 --> 01:24:29,609
Thank you so much. We have,
we're using his Slingbox. And by

1503
01:24:29,609 --> 01:24:31,889
the way, if anybody out there is
in some remote part of the

1504
01:24:31,889 --> 01:24:35,639
world, and they have a sling
box. Yeah, send us the ID, send

1505
01:24:35,639 --> 01:24:38,129
us the ID and we'll watch your
shows locally. And then we'll

1506
01:24:38,129 --> 01:24:41,399
make some comments about you
don't have, in fact, a new sling

1507
01:24:41,399 --> 01:24:44,189
box software, which is really
impressive. By the way, this

1508
01:24:44,189 --> 01:24:46,709
stuff you can download in any
way, by the way out there can do

1509
01:24:46,709 --> 01:24:50,999
this. If you get an account. It
actually maintains a database of

1510
01:24:50,999 --> 01:24:56,039
all the sling boxes that you're
talking to go down, right? Yep,

1511
01:24:56,099 --> 01:24:59,729
it's great. He says go down the
list and you click Detroit and

1512
01:24:59,729 --> 01:25:04,139
boom Hey, Amanda, Detroit
Slingbox. So we've got. They

1513
01:25:04,139 --> 01:25:06,869
should be sponsoring this show.
There you go.

1514
01:25:06,900 --> 01:25:09,600
Now that's that's a good segue.
I'll go after that. Yeah, let's

1515
01:25:09,630 --> 01:25:12,930
have Lauren's column up. Tell
him we,

1516
01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:17,250
because we're using an
international show, we got two

1517
01:25:17,250 --> 01:25:20,640
one guys in different parts of
the hemisphere. We are

1518
01:25:20,670 --> 01:25:23,370
a we are the target audience,
right that we will not check.

1519
01:25:23,370 --> 01:25:26,820
But otherwise, we're the perfect
target audience for this device.

1520
01:25:27,780 --> 01:25:28,200
Right.

1521
01:25:29,550 --> 01:25:31,380
And I think a lot of people that
listen to this show would

1522
01:25:31,380 --> 01:25:35,790
probably use it, you know, if
they thought about it. So cheap

1523
01:25:35,790 --> 01:25:37,050
device, but it's not expensive.

1524
01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:40,080
So we now have access to CBC
Canadian Broadcasting

1525
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:43,950
Corporation out of Windsor, and
something called Global

1526
01:25:44,789 --> 01:25:46,769
or something. I don't know,
whatever the thing is, it's like

1527
01:25:46,769 --> 01:25:48,269
some station in Windsor.

1528
01:25:48,420 --> 01:25:53,490
And I know that you've been
watching it because because you

1529
01:25:53,490 --> 01:25:59,400
left it on channel 99. Oh, I
did. Yeah. Because it was I was

1530
01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:02,190
surfing through right. And I
also have the software

1531
01:26:02,190 --> 01:26:08,550
downstairs in the kitchen on
Patricia's MacBook, and I'm

1532
01:26:08,550 --> 01:26:14,100
switching through and you know
it, it's it stops on TMZ. Holmen

1533
01:26:14,100 --> 01:26:17,010
and then also I went to make a
cup of tea and then like the

1534
01:26:17,010 --> 01:26:19,560
laptops gone. Patricia sitting
there watching it. You know, I

1535
01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:22,410
can't get it back. She's
watching stupid celebrity gossip

1536
01:26:22,410 --> 01:26:23,430
on TMZ.

1537
01:26:26,550 --> 01:26:29,550
Yeah, that's pretty bad. Yeah,
the but anyway, the other

1538
01:26:29,550 --> 01:26:32,850
device. Again, oh, I don't want
to keep giving him all this free

1539
01:26:32,850 --> 01:26:35,430
publicity. Is the sling catcher.

1540
01:26:35,760 --> 01:26:38,310
Yeah, this is the thing that I
need because this is the is the

1541
01:26:38,310 --> 01:26:40,800
other side of it. Right? Then
you use hooked that up and then

1542
01:26:40,800 --> 01:26:44,250
you can put a sling box stream
on your television.

1543
01:26:44,610 --> 01:26:47,730
Right? Cool. So you don't have
to just do everything on the

1544
01:26:47,730 --> 01:26:50,910
computer most. I mean, when the
sling box first came out, I

1545
01:26:50,910 --> 01:26:54,150
thought it was kind of a hokey
idea. But you know, until I

1546
01:26:54,150 --> 01:26:56,910
started realising the,
especially with having two

1547
01:26:56,910 --> 01:26:59,880
different houses, that how
advantageous it would be

1548
01:26:59,880 --> 01:27:02,460
especially since I can't get to
local stations up in Seattle on

1549
01:27:02,460 --> 01:27:07,560
my dish network because of some
legal thing. And and then when

1550
01:27:07,560 --> 01:27:10,980
we started Dennett, having used
it and realise how we're

1551
01:27:10,980 --> 01:27:14,700
actually very powerful gives you
the local stations. He has his

1552
01:27:14,700 --> 01:27:17,490
own guide you can change the
channels effortlessly. It's

1553
01:27:17,490 --> 01:27:18,090
amazing.

1554
01:27:18,120 --> 01:27:22,890
Yeah, it is it really is. So I
hope someone made some money on

1555
01:27:22,890 --> 01:27:23,220
that.

1556
01:27:23,940 --> 01:27:26,940
Well, I think the guy I've read
it I was doing it I said at

1557
01:27:26,940 --> 01:27:29,700
dinner recently and somebody
mentioned that the Slingbox

1558
01:27:29,700 --> 01:27:32,430
founders are really sharp
character and uh, yeah, I'm sure

1559
01:27:32,430 --> 01:27:35,220
they did. Unfortunately, if it
was if it wasn't for Sarbanes

1560
01:27:35,220 --> 01:27:37,050
Oxley company like that would
have gone public and they would

1561
01:27:37,050 --> 01:27:38,040
have made some serious money.

1562
01:27:38,070 --> 01:27:42,780
Yeah, it'd be huge. I agree. Oh,
well. Soon as soon as we get the

1563
01:27:42,780 --> 01:27:45,750
new the new bandwidth. Get it
all set up.

1564
01:27:48,630 --> 01:27:50,760
Alright, me well check out the
when you have hooked up now.

1565
01:27:52,920 --> 01:27:55,260
Yeah, you should try it. But
don't stay on it too long.

1566
01:27:55,260 --> 01:27:59,910
Because I have like some
pathetic, like, like 300 kilobit

1567
01:27:59,910 --> 01:28:02,940
per second upload or something.
It's really fucking sad.

1568
01:28:04,830 --> 01:28:06,630
Boo, you have a cap.

1569
01:28:07,500 --> 01:28:13,320
That's just the speed. I get one
megabit down and 300k Speed up.

1570
01:28:13,680 --> 01:28:16,380
So if you're watching this
Slingbox is like you know, then

1571
01:28:16,410 --> 01:28:20,340
the internet comes falling
crashing to its knees here.

1572
01:28:20,820 --> 01:28:23,670
I'll only do it at midnight in
New York time.

1573
01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:27,090
Hey, no, that's cool. That's
cool. Any anytime after

1574
01:28:27,090 --> 01:28:28,620
midnight, here is no problem at
all.

1575
01:28:30,450 --> 01:28:32,640
All right, good. Now I'll get
mine hooked up in the next week

1576
01:28:32,640 --> 01:28:35,880
or so I need to find the power
supply for the one of them.

1577
01:28:38,190 --> 01:28:41,460
It helps I've heard if you have
one of those that putting the

1578
01:28:41,460 --> 01:28:43,230
power on makes it better.

1579
01:28:43,860 --> 01:28:45,630
It actually works. Yeah.

1580
01:28:47,400 --> 01:28:48,630
What else happen with Joomla?

1581
01:28:49,680 --> 01:28:53,460
I think that's about it. The
weather here is actually quite

1582
01:28:53,460 --> 01:28:58,650
good. But a little chilly. Then
we had a big full moon and it's

1583
01:28:58,650 --> 01:29:01,800
raining up in Seattle. So I'm
down here and not much.

1584
01:29:02,250 --> 01:29:04,230
So another weekend at home.

1585
01:29:05,310 --> 01:29:07,260
Yeah, well, next weekend, I'm
going up for sure. Because I'm

1586
01:29:07,260 --> 01:29:09,510
gonna spend the whole week up,
you know, for Christmas. And

1587
01:29:09,900 --> 01:29:12,630
well, that's, that's kind of
interesting. So next weekend, so

1588
01:29:12,630 --> 01:29:15,000
are you going to call in or when
do you want to do it?

1589
01:29:16,110 --> 01:29:18,750
I'm leaving on Sunday. So we can
do it. Just do it the regular

1590
01:29:18,750 --> 01:29:21,540
time and then the next Saturday.
I think I'm up there. But I'm

1591
01:29:21,540 --> 01:29:24,150
going to bring some gear up
there. And I'm going to hook up

1592
01:29:24,300 --> 01:29:27,270
because I got you here what
happened to change is that we

1593
01:29:27,270 --> 01:29:32,310
had this local provider but then
my son Eric down the hill is

1594
01:29:32,310 --> 01:29:38,070
sitting on top of a fibre optic
cable and so he had it was

1595
01:29:38,070 --> 01:29:40,560
actually this string and so it's
actually strung on the telephone

1596
01:29:40,560 --> 01:29:44,790
poles. And so he did a deal with
a guy who apparently has the

1597
01:29:44,850 --> 01:29:50,100
legal rights to this fibre and
so he bought up five Meg up and

1598
01:29:50,100 --> 01:29:56,070
down. Fibre connection which is
straight shot, no sharing, and I

1599
01:29:56,070 --> 01:29:59,250
think we're actually getting
1010 megabits per second fibre

1600
01:29:59,430 --> 01:30:05,070
nice And then he's still he's
got a one watt Wi Fi, a one watt

1601
01:30:05,070 --> 01:30:09,060
Wi Fi directional antenna thing
shooting up to my house. And so

1602
01:30:09,060 --> 01:30:12,030
I'm picking up you know about
100 megabits per second on that

1603
01:30:12,030 --> 01:30:17,610
network. And then then taking
the taking the, the fibre in and

1604
01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:21,420
it is so much faster even though
you know I have a fast

1605
01:30:21,420 --> 01:30:25,200
connection here on the Comcast
but it has that that sense that

1606
01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:27,390
like you wouldn't call it a
delay, it's just like every once

1607
01:30:27,390 --> 01:30:30,660
in a while goes. Can you hold on
just one second before I give

1608
01:30:30,660 --> 01:30:33,120
you that data? Because I am a
little busy over here now. Okay,

1609
01:30:33,120 --> 01:30:36,870
here it comes. The with the with
the fibre just just wow,

1610
01:30:37,290 --> 01:30:40,620
boom. Yeah, I love that. I love
the way they market it because I

1611
01:30:40,620 --> 01:30:43,410
did some research and you look
at Virgin Media, which we're on

1612
01:30:43,410 --> 01:30:47,040
the five because we've got a
fibre fibre optic network, and

1613
01:30:47,040 --> 01:30:50,880
they say okay, you get the 20
megabits, it'll take you 1.7

1614
01:30:50,910 --> 01:30:54,900
seconds to download an mp3
track. Like what kind of

1615
01:30:54,900 --> 01:30:57,870
measurement is that? You know,
that's not a Pink Floyd track.

1616
01:30:57,900 --> 01:31:01,440
Okay. It's like the taking
averages and but the way they

1617
01:31:01,440 --> 01:31:03,240
market that is so misleading.

1618
01:31:03,660 --> 01:31:06,240
I hate that kind of marketing.
Yeah, I want to just tell you

1619
01:31:06,240 --> 01:31:09,150
what your megabits per second is
going to be? Well they do they

1620
01:31:09,150 --> 01:31:11,820
do this at the big some people
don't they just go on with a

1621
01:31:11,820 --> 01:31:14,970
bunch of oil. You can load a
book and so on. You can download

1622
01:31:14,970 --> 01:31:17,040
a movie in an hour. You know,
whatever.

1623
01:31:17,070 --> 01:31:19,230
They even say that with that
tone of voice don't say well,

1624
01:31:19,230 --> 01:31:23,430
you could do the book. That's
real marketing for you. Hey, can

1625
01:31:23,430 --> 01:31:29,190
you get Comcast you can even
download mp3 Like that's exactly

1626
01:31:29,190 --> 01:31:33,390
the voice they use. Here's one.
Here's one, John. We're not done

1627
01:31:33,390 --> 01:31:38,820
yet. Goldman predicts oil to hit
$30 A barrel awkward, awkward U

1628
01:31:38,820 --> 01:31:46,380
turn after $200 warning or
awkward, awkward U turn. You

1629
01:31:46,380 --> 01:31:48,180
should see this picture.

1630
01:31:49,200 --> 01:31:53,100
Go you have to assume once they
made the statement that the oil

1631
01:31:53,100 --> 01:31:53,820
downturn is

1632
01:31:53,850 --> 01:31:57,780
over, it's gonna shoot up like a
rocket. It's you after

1633
01:31:57,780 --> 01:32:00,420
they made that statement that
did go up a little bit. You know

1634
01:32:00,420 --> 01:32:03,300
a lot of people think it's gonna
stabilise it 30 Some people

1635
01:32:03,300 --> 01:32:04,860
think is gonna stabilise it 50

1636
01:32:04,920 --> 01:32:08,520
When they're ready, when they're
ready to crush us as per plan,

1637
01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:13,410
which will probably be around
June 25, then it's going to

1638
01:32:13,410 --> 01:32:14,430
skyrocket

1639
01:32:15,840 --> 01:32:17,100
on that see in it.

1640
01:32:18,390 --> 01:32:20,970
The supply and demand problem,
they they got a serious problem.

1641
01:32:20,970 --> 01:32:24,030
They can't, you know, we cut
back on our oil usage. And with

1642
01:32:24,030 --> 01:32:26,910
Obama coming in and pushing all
this other stuff. I think oil

1643
01:32:26,910 --> 01:32:30,210
has got serious problems
maintain these prices. I think

1644
01:32:30,210 --> 01:32:32,100
it's I think they're probably
right about 30

1645
01:32:34,830 --> 01:32:36,240
All right. The guy

1646
01:32:36,240 --> 01:32:38,670
who's running Iran says that
they're planning their whole

1647
01:32:38,670 --> 01:32:43,380
economy on $30 barrel oil. And
the guy from Saudi Arabia came

1648
01:32:43,380 --> 01:32:46,440
out and said out and you know, I
wanted on 60 minutes last week,

1649
01:32:46,440 --> 01:32:50,040
he came out and said, Well, you
know, out of the out of the

1650
01:32:50,040 --> 01:32:52,470
ground is costing us two bucks
to produce this stuff.

1651
01:32:54,030 --> 01:32:56,970
I think I'm hearing a lot more
but okay,

1652
01:32:57,240 --> 01:33:00,060
he's just two bucks. I'm telling
you go look at the 60 minutes on

1653
01:33:00,060 --> 01:33:03,210
Hulu. It's like two bucks. He
says that's what it costs and

1654
01:33:03,210 --> 01:33:06,030
then they have hard to get oil.
It's not like their oil is just

1655
01:33:06,060 --> 01:33:07,230
oozing out like it was.

1656
01:33:07,560 --> 01:33:11,340
I'm telling you I got a friend
of mine works at Halliburton

1657
01:33:11,340 --> 01:33:15,570
company. And he is an oil
support services. And he says

1658
01:33:15,570 --> 01:33:19,110
it's it's really it's 20 bucks a
barrel to get it out and onto

1659
01:33:19,110 --> 01:33:20,730
the container. I'm just

1660
01:33:20,730 --> 01:33:27,480
telling you what the guy said at
least fourchette lowball himself

1661
01:33:27,510 --> 01:33:32,640
I don't know to make it sound
like to help continue to

1662
01:33:32,640 --> 01:33:34,500
bankrupt the Middle East. I
don't know.

1663
01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:36,930
It sounds like you didn't want
to do that.

1664
01:33:38,130 --> 01:33:40,620
You know the story whatever. Do
you know the story behind the

1665
01:33:40,650 --> 01:33:43,830
name Ponzi scheme just to bring
the show for full circle

1666
01:33:44,970 --> 01:33:47,220
upon a guy named Ponzi Yeah,
Charles

1667
01:33:47,220 --> 01:33:53,400
Ponzi. Yeah, and his original
Ponzi scheme in 1920, estimated

1668
01:33:53,400 --> 01:33:54,420
lost $10 million.

1669
01:33:57,540 --> 01:34:00,690
And it was the same thing you
just you know, right. That's

1670
01:34:00,690 --> 01:34:03,090
what a lot of people think a lot
of these multi level marketing

1671
01:34:03,090 --> 01:34:05,940
things are Ponzi schemes of some
sort. I don't see

1672
01:34:05,940 --> 01:34:08,730
it as is I think that's a
misnomer. When you call an MLM a

1673
01:34:08,730 --> 01:34:10,260
Ponzi scheme. That's not true.

1674
01:34:10,680 --> 01:34:13,410
It is when you're when your
orientation is more to selling

1675
01:34:13,410 --> 01:34:16,710
franchises than it is to selling
products. Okay, yeah, yeah,

1676
01:34:16,710 --> 01:34:19,470
true. And I have run into those,
you know, it's like, you know,

1677
01:34:19,680 --> 01:34:22,140
just sell it you want to sell
product now and you should sell

1678
01:34:22,170 --> 01:34:24,840
more people to be under your
umbrella and then they can do

1679
01:34:24,840 --> 01:34:26,970
yours and and they've had to
actually change a bunch of

1680
01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:29,670
they've actually had laws
against overdoing that so you

1681
01:34:29,670 --> 01:34:32,580
can't have a huge pyramid
schemes. The other word for it.

1682
01:34:32,610 --> 01:34:36,540
That's yeah, that's the word.
They change the the loss of the

1683
01:34:36,540 --> 01:34:39,420
pyramid can only go so far, you
can't have an infinite pyramid,

1684
01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:41,790
which is how you you know, you
made the big bucks.

1685
01:34:42,210 --> 01:34:45,540
Right? Nor can you have an
infinite bubble, which is

1686
01:34:45,540 --> 01:34:47,190
exactly what happened here.

1687
01:34:49,080 --> 01:34:52,230
Right are an infinite Ponzi
scheme. But the fact that he

1688
01:34:52,230 --> 01:34:55,350
could take it to 50 billion,
that's amazing.

1689
01:34:55,950 --> 01:35:00,720
And for so many years 40 Just
based on reputation Can I guess?

1690
01:35:00,990 --> 01:35:05,460
Yeah, no, that shows you what
reputation can do for you didn't

1691
01:35:05,460 --> 01:35:11,820
work? Yeah, no. Reputation. I
mean, people who thought highly

1692
01:35:11,820 --> 01:35:15,630
of his reputation guts were
mistaken. There was a bunch of

1693
01:35:15,630 --> 01:35:19,800
I've gotten a couple papers from
people that did it show that

1694
01:35:19,830 --> 01:35:23,010
this guy was under suspicion,
like a decade ago, because there

1695
01:35:23,040 --> 01:35:25,020
there were these writers that
would come and say, I don't know

1696
01:35:25,020 --> 01:35:28,200
how, how does he do it? How does
he do it? It can't be done. And

1697
01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:29,940
then they always have them coded
at the end. So well, you know, a

1698
01:35:29,940 --> 01:35:33,120
lot of people don't take it into
consideration, that I'm a great

1699
01:35:33,120 --> 01:35:35,640
trader, and I know what I'm
doing, maybe when you realise

1700
01:35:35,640 --> 01:35:37,320
that you'll see how I did it.
Yeah.

1701
01:35:39,300 --> 01:35:42,990
Well, so we'll be talking about
this guy. It'll be it's great.

1702
01:35:42,990 --> 01:35:46,110
And it makes fantastic
headlines. And meanwhile, $8.4

1703
01:35:46,110 --> 01:35:53,010
trillion has been stolen from us
by Goldman Sachs effectively by

1704
01:35:53,010 --> 01:35:57,570
accident by extension, with
Paulson by extension, stolen,

1705
01:35:57,600 --> 01:36:03,840
just stolen. You know? You don't
care.

1706
01:36:04,440 --> 01:36:06,270
I do care. I wish I was working
for him.

1707
01:36:08,790 --> 01:36:10,620
John, would a lot of money make
you happy?

1708
01:36:13,050 --> 01:36:16,380
No, but it would allow me in
some time to go, you know, float

1709
01:36:16,380 --> 01:36:19,050
around Europe more. I mean, I
have to work all the time. Or

1710
01:36:19,050 --> 01:36:21,300
I'm always around here
podcasting or doing something

1711
01:36:21,300 --> 01:36:24,900
trying to clean the office
fixing things. It's ridiculous.

1712
01:36:25,020 --> 01:36:26,280
When's the last time you move?

1713
01:36:27,270 --> 01:36:30,480
I haven't moved. Well, we we've
had we have different

1714
01:36:30,480 --> 01:36:36,090
properties. And I haven't moved
from this house for like 15

1715
01:36:36,090 --> 01:36:40,200
years. It's a long I think it's
time. It's yeah, it's well, it's

1716
01:36:40,230 --> 01:36:42,900
well beyond time. But the
problem that we have we have the

1717
01:36:42,900 --> 01:36:45,480
same problem that Port Angeles
house is that if you don't

1718
01:36:45,480 --> 01:36:48,720
follow the every move every four
years move and move and move.

1719
01:36:49,170 --> 01:36:54,180
You fall off the ladder.
cumulate so much crap. What do I

1720
01:36:54,180 --> 01:36:55,860
mean? It's like a nightmare.
Yeah.

1721
01:36:56,550 --> 01:36:59,280
Well, that's us, man. This is
for years. It's time to move.

1722
01:36:59,310 --> 01:37:04,050
We're done. And it feels great.
It's exciting. I really like it

1723
01:37:04,050 --> 01:37:06,810
and we enjoy moving. I mean, the
actual process kind of sucks,

1724
01:37:06,810 --> 01:37:10,710
but you know, the throwing out
the reboot. It's cool. I like

1725
01:37:10,710 --> 01:37:13,140
it. There's a lot of Bill a lot
of bills you don't have to

1726
01:37:13,140 --> 01:37:15,810
change you know, you just don't
don't tell them and you don't

1727
01:37:15,810 --> 01:37:16,740
see him anymore.

1728
01:37:18,150 --> 01:37:20,610
More power to you. Ya know,

1729
01:37:20,610 --> 01:37:23,610
it's like junk mail ends for a
while I like that. That's kind

1730
01:37:23,610 --> 01:37:29,880
of cool. You consider it it's a
buyers market. I hear

1731
01:37:29,940 --> 01:37:32,730
I'm trying to go as I well. I'm
gonna wait for the market to

1732
01:37:32,730 --> 01:37:36,390
source I know what the market
works in a wave anyway. So you

1733
01:37:36,390 --> 01:37:36,990
have a

1734
01:37:37,050 --> 01:37:40,290
you were telling you were
telling me half a year ago now

1735
01:37:40,290 --> 01:37:41,520
is the time to buy.

1736
01:37:41,970 --> 01:37:44,790
Yeah, no, now's the time to buy
but now's not the time to sell.

1737
01:37:45,150 --> 01:37:47,730
That's the difference. True
true. So what I want to do is I

1738
01:37:47,730 --> 01:37:50,550
want to get into the California
is going to make a comeback.

1739
01:37:50,550 --> 01:37:54,360
Probably that same June period
that we're talking about next

1740
01:37:54,360 --> 01:37:57,120
year California properties
prices should stabilise and

1741
01:37:57,120 --> 01:37:59,760
start to go up to the point
where I can sell at a at a

1742
01:37:59,760 --> 01:38:03,570
decent amount of money that I
need to sell that and but it's

1743
01:38:03,600 --> 01:38:06,240
but it will not have happened in
other parts of the country

1744
01:38:06,240 --> 01:38:08,910
namely Washington State or some
of these other places. Because

1745
01:38:08,910 --> 01:38:12,540
it because everything you know
happens what happens in bulges

1746
01:38:12,780 --> 01:38:15,660
and so that I should be able to
get the timing just right to get

1747
01:38:15,660 --> 01:38:20,520
out. And then get in within a
good time to sell good time to

1748
01:38:20,520 --> 01:38:24,270
buy. Says it's just like a
straddle and where are you gonna

1749
01:38:24,270 --> 01:38:26,850
go? Washington,

1750
01:38:26,940 --> 01:38:29,310
Oh, you want to go live there?
You just want to sell this place

1751
01:38:29,310 --> 01:38:30,480
and sell up and be gone.

1752
01:38:30,630 --> 01:38:32,940
I want to get out of California
because I think this place is

1753
01:38:33,120 --> 01:38:36,510
it's doomed me is bankrupt. You
know, the bank robber got some

1754
01:38:36,510 --> 01:38:37,800
money on a stick it to us?

1755
01:38:37,980 --> 01:38:43,080
Yeah, probably on Oh, I know.
Capital gains on how sales,

1756
01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:44,370
that's how they'll stick it to
you?

1757
01:38:44,670 --> 01:38:47,610
Well, no, they're not going to
get away with that. But the

1758
01:38:47,700 --> 01:38:49,590
they're going to stick it to us
in other ways. They're going to

1759
01:38:49,590 --> 01:38:53,280
have a value added tax, I'm
convinced to that. And then

1760
01:38:53,280 --> 01:38:54,720
they're going to do two or three
other things. They're going to

1761
01:38:54,720 --> 01:38:58,470
raise property about property
taxes and everything they can

1762
01:38:58,470 --> 01:38:59,640
do. Oh, that you know,

1763
01:38:59,640 --> 01:39:02,820
that's really funny. The the big
stimulus package here in the

1764
01:39:02,820 --> 01:39:07,080
United Kingdom was the reduction
of the value added tax from 17

1765
01:39:07,080 --> 01:39:13,200
and a half percent to 15%, which
is a huge amount. But what's

1766
01:39:13,200 --> 01:39:15,510
interesting, what they don't
tell you is that on the very

1767
01:39:15,510 --> 01:39:21,720
same day that they lowered the
VAT tax, they increased the

1768
01:39:21,750 --> 01:39:28,740
alcohol, the liquor tax by 8%.
And no one wrote a single line

1769
01:39:28,740 --> 01:39:32,310
about it is like booze is 8%
more expensive, but everyone's

1770
01:39:32,310 --> 01:39:35,160
talking about oh, they lowered
the VAT by two and a half giving

1771
01:39:35,160 --> 01:39:38,610
you a net five and a half point
five increase on the number one

1772
01:39:40,710 --> 01:39:42,990
substance the Brits put into
their bodies.

1773
01:39:45,600 --> 01:39:47,580
They like to drink over there.
Yeah,

1774
01:39:47,790 --> 01:39:51,270
yeah, they do. But it's cool,
man. We got like five pubs in

1775
01:39:51,270 --> 01:39:54,120
our neighbourhood. I gotta find
my local gotta find out

1776
01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:56,910
find a good one. Make sure they
have Adnan's that's kind of one

1777
01:39:56,910 --> 01:40:03,780
of the keys. Beer. Yeah, AD and
ans add an Enzo ale okay is

1778
01:40:03,780 --> 01:40:04,260
considered

1779
01:40:04,260 --> 01:40:07,170
probably just a nice atmosphere
and cool people are should be

1780
01:40:07,170 --> 01:40:07,710
looking at

1781
01:40:07,710 --> 01:40:09,630
the addenda and still have the
wrestle come with it.

1782
01:40:10,050 --> 01:40:12,600
Cool people could come included
with the deal.

1783
01:40:13,140 --> 01:40:14,100
Yeah, you watch.

1784
01:40:15,269 --> 01:40:18,059
I'm going to send you a link
John and we should talk about it

1785
01:40:18,059 --> 01:40:23,849
next week. It's from a Colorado.
What's the university out there,

1786
01:40:23,849 --> 01:40:24,599
Colorado,

1787
01:40:24,810 --> 01:40:26,400
University of Colorado
Buffaloes.

1788
01:40:26,669 --> 01:40:28,739
Boulder. Boulder. Boulder was
involved in

1789
01:40:28,740 --> 01:40:32,340
Boulder. Yeah. Okay. So as he
pronounced it up there, boda

1790
01:40:32,370 --> 01:40:32,850
boda.

1791
01:40:33,359 --> 01:40:38,279
It's a university professor in a
in his classroom, and it's about

1792
01:40:38,279 --> 01:40:41,879
20 minutes. And he's talking
about and he's, he's kind of an

1793
01:40:41,879 --> 01:40:45,659
old Kook, which is obviously why
I liked him. And he's talking

1794
01:40:45,659 --> 01:40:52,679
about the inability of human
beings to understand the concept

1795
01:40:52,709 --> 01:40:56,369
of exponential growth. And he
goes through a whole number of

1796
01:40:56,369 --> 01:41:00,899
examples, how exponential growth
works. And then he draws

1797
01:41:00,899 --> 01:41:08,069
parallels between global
population and oil use. And it's

1798
01:41:08,069 --> 01:41:10,559
kind of like the old story, if
you saved a penny a day, every

1799
01:41:10,559 --> 01:41:12,959
single day, you know, you'd be a
millionaire, or like, you'd have

1800
01:41:12,959 --> 01:41:16,829
100 million within 20 years or
whatever it was compounded

1801
01:41:16,829 --> 01:41:22,919
interest. And it's quite
frightening when, when you see

1802
01:41:22,919 --> 01:41:28,379
the numbers on and forget about,
you know, basically the numbers

1803
01:41:28,379 --> 01:41:33,089
double every 10 years, like the
population is, you know, and it

1804
01:41:33,089 --> 01:41:36,209
goes very, very quickly. And
then when you get exponential

1805
01:41:36,209 --> 01:41:39,359
growth, it's this hockey stick
curve that just goes straight up

1806
01:41:39,359 --> 01:41:42,959
after a certain point. And what
he's basically saying is where

1807
01:41:42,959 --> 01:41:46,109
it's two minutes to 12, and the
next, you know, the next

1808
01:41:46,109 --> 01:41:48,329
doubling of everything is
essentially going to kill us.

1809
01:41:48,599 --> 01:41:51,389
And what he goes into, is He
literally says here, the

1810
01:41:51,389 --> 01:41:56,459
options, war disease, he says,
he's going through the all the

1811
01:41:56,459 --> 01:42:00,209
all the options, yeah, famine.
Exactly. Yeah, those are the

1812
01:42:00,239 --> 01:42:04,409
classics. And I well, I mean, so
you obviously know what I'm

1813
01:42:04,409 --> 01:42:06,929
talking about. I mean, this is
not just nutball stuff. This is

1814
01:42:06,929 --> 01:42:07,979
kind of realistic.

1815
01:42:08,880 --> 01:42:12,090
Yeah, it's been discussed a lot.
In fact, probably more or less

1816
01:42:12,090 --> 01:42:12,510
true.

1817
01:42:12,900 --> 01:42:20,190
Well, Carter, used at Carter
tried to explain how exponential

1818
01:42:20,190 --> 01:42:23,760
growth works. And he was right.
You know, he said, we'll we'll

1819
01:42:23,760 --> 01:42:29,940
have tapped out our resources in
four decades from now. Yeah,

1820
01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:30,780
I mean, it's

1821
01:42:31,050 --> 01:42:34,920
an even even if you're signed to
find two more huge oil fields

1822
01:42:34,920 --> 01:42:40,530
like Alaska, and what is it,
Indonesia or whatever,

1823
01:42:40,650 --> 01:42:42,720
you know, we got there's a,
there's a lot and you know, what

1824
01:42:42,720 --> 01:42:44,760
the one No one wants to talk
about, because it would like

1825
01:42:44,760 --> 01:42:47,580
change everybody's attitude.
There's a whopper sitting

1826
01:42:47,580 --> 01:42:50,280
underneath Nebraska, as big as
Saudi Arabia.

1827
01:42:50,580 --> 01:42:53,100
The evidence with this is the
whole point, it doesn't matter

1828
01:42:53,100 --> 01:42:55,740
when you're looking at these
exponential numbers where usage

1829
01:42:55,770 --> 01:42:59,250
increases continuously at like
6% per year.

1830
01:42:59,310 --> 01:43:02,400
Of course, that's too much to
handle, you know, it popped,

1831
01:43:02,760 --> 01:43:05,340
apparently your pop the pop up,
what he was saying is the

1832
01:43:05,340 --> 01:43:10,980
population growth of Boulder is
at 3%. No, was it 6%. And they

1833
01:43:10,980 --> 01:43:15,030
brought it down like 4.8%. And
his point was that we actually

1834
01:43:15,030 --> 01:43:19,350
send humanitarian aid into
countries that have a population

1835
01:43:19,350 --> 01:43:25,020
growth over 2% Because it can
actually it can kill you within

1836
01:43:25,230 --> 01:43:29,580
you wind up very quickly at the
end of that curve with you each

1837
01:43:29,580 --> 01:43:34,680
got a square metre and that's
it. I'm gonna send you that

1838
01:43:34,680 --> 01:43:36,360
link. I looked at it now. She's
like, wow, this

1839
01:43:36,360 --> 01:43:39,420
freaking me out? Yeah, send it
out, blog it and it will talk

1840
01:43:39,420 --> 01:43:40,200
about it next week.

1841
01:43:40,290 --> 01:43:44,550
That's a good idea. Because if
that if that if it really holds

1842
01:43:44,550 --> 01:43:47,430
true, and the numbers certainly
make sense. But if the

1843
01:43:47,430 --> 01:43:50,280
underlying data he's comparing
it to if it makes sense then

1844
01:43:51,060 --> 01:43:54,720
chip, man, who cares? Don't pay
your mortgage. Don't move just

1845
01:43:54,720 --> 01:43:59,970
hang out. Tomorrow? Well, it's
it could it's a lot of this

1846
01:43:59,970 --> 01:44:02,580
could be in our lifetime. 20 to
35. Nia

1847
01:44:02,580 --> 01:44:03,330
list 20

1848
01:44:03,360 --> 01:44:04,530
newlist. Was that?

1849
01:44:04,950 --> 01:44:05,820
NIH look

1850
01:44:05,820 --> 01:44:09,060
it up? No, no. Explain. It's a

1851
01:44:09,060 --> 01:44:11,040
person who just has a gloomy
outlook.

1852
01:44:12,690 --> 01:44:16,380
Yeah. Oh, you mean a realist?
I'm sorry. I misunderstood.

1853
01:44:16,680 --> 01:44:21,150
Neil is that's what that's what
a Neil is would say

1854
01:44:21,180 --> 01:44:24,540
exactly. Well, that's me. I'm
gonna get business cards printed

1855
01:44:24,540 --> 01:44:25,770
up. Yeah. abuse

1856
01:44:25,770 --> 01:44:31,440
it as your title. How do I spell
it? And I ah, I think Niha LIS T

1857
01:44:31,440 --> 01:44:32,130
i think and

1858
01:44:32,130 --> 01:44:36,390
i H L. L i s t i think is in
annihilation.

1859
01:44:38,160 --> 01:44:40,590
Phil, I wasn't thinking in those
terms. Bugs. Maybe there's a

1860
01:44:40,590 --> 01:44:41,220
route there.

1861
01:44:42,900 --> 01:44:47,700
Okay. All right, John. Well,
good talking to you. As usual,

1862
01:44:47,730 --> 01:44:53,670
yes. And well, coming to you
from Gitmo nation east over here

1863
01:44:53,670 --> 01:44:57,960
in the United Kingdom, where
climate change is indeed in

1864
01:44:57,960 --> 01:45:00,990
effect. It's getting colder. I'm
Adam curry.

1865
01:45:01,980 --> 01:45:04,650
And I'm John C. Dvorak in
Silicon Valley north. Get mo

1866
01:45:04,650 --> 01:45:09,690
nation USA and it's getting it's
kind of warmer here but it's

1867
01:45:09,690 --> 01:45:11,730
cold everyplace else. So I don't
know.

1868
01:45:12,150 --> 01:45:14,940
We'll talk to you guys next week
right here. Uh, no agenda
