1 00:00:02,460 --> 00:00:05,550 It's Saturday night while everyone's partying till dawn, 2 00:00:05,580 --> 00:00:09,000 two guys are home alone and they don't know nothing about 3 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,420 anything. It's time once again for no agenda where I get to ask 4 00:00:12,420 --> 00:00:15,300 if we've reached the bottom yet, from the curry condo in the 5 00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:18,600 flight path of the Blue Angels and Gitmo nation West. I'm Adam 6 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:19,140 curry. 7 00:00:19,559 --> 00:00:23,339 And I'm John C. Dvorak at the bottom in northern Silicon 8 00:00:23,339 --> 00:00:29,099 Valley. Just here at the bottom of bottom away. It's comfy down 9 00:00:29,099 --> 00:00:32,699 here. Oh, man, 10 00:00:32,700 --> 00:00:37,140 how you doing Saturday night? It's 915 we are losers, dude. 11 00:00:37,710 --> 00:00:41,160 I just flew in from Seattle. So I'm flying in from Virgin 12 00:00:41,160 --> 00:00:44,160 American and so I figured I was gonna get in a little earlier. 13 00:00:44,430 --> 00:00:46,890 But it was an hour delay because somebody in the back of the 14 00:00:46,890 --> 00:00:50,520 plane was done. This is the truth by the way. projectile 15 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,730 vomit. One of the other passengers 16 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,020 it was they do an announcement. Ladies and gentlemen were 17 00:00:59,190 --> 00:01:00,420 projectile vomiting 18 00:01:00,420 --> 00:01:01,260 you done and 19 00:01:03,180 --> 00:01:05,880 hopefully you were upfront in first class. Yeah, wasn't 20 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,300 it first bike I couldn't get in. It was packed, but I was. I was 21 00:01:09,300 --> 00:01:15,660 in row three. So So anyways, whatever the case was, what the 22 00:01:15,690 --> 00:01:18,360 Earth's most irksome part is that we took a flight path on 23 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:22,650 the way back to took us west of the Golden Gate Bridge over San 24 00:01:22,650 --> 00:01:25,890 Francisco in a very clear day. If it was an hour earlier. I 25 00:01:25,890 --> 00:01:29,010 would have had some of the most spectacular photos ever. 26 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,590 Yeah, but you know why? That's because they have a temporary 27 00:01:31,710 --> 00:01:35,820 restricted area over over all of that for the for the air show. 28 00:01:36,210 --> 00:01:37,200 Oh, no, 29 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:38,940 never get that route again. 30 00:01:40,050 --> 00:01:42,780 Well, if you fly tomorrow, you might Oh, yeah, 31 00:01:42,780 --> 00:01:46,110 I know what you meant. And now as you mentioned that you're 32 00:01:46,110 --> 00:01:48,780 right. I've never been on that route before. Yeah, I'm 33 00:01:48,780 --> 00:01:52,980 sure temporary religions great view. I know I was talking to 34 00:01:52,980 --> 00:01:57,330 Patricia and I said because the the Blue Angels were literally 35 00:01:57,330 --> 00:02:01,500 flying past the house here this afternoon on like holding up the 36 00:02:01,530 --> 00:02:04,890 laptop so she can see it and you know, beautiful clear blue sky 37 00:02:04,890 --> 00:02:08,130 and then explains vitamin through. I 38 00:02:08,130 --> 00:02:10,950 was cool. You didn't go to you're gonna go to the event. 39 00:02:11,190 --> 00:02:11,970 You didn't go today. 40 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,760 I didn't go today. First of all, because I felt really kind of 41 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,060 me, I've had this this thing's going been going around the 42 00:02:18,060 --> 00:02:21,690 office, this petri dish of ours that my head was filled with 43 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:25,290 just gunk and I had kind of a sore throat so I I slept in a 44 00:02:25,290 --> 00:02:32,220 little bit. And actually, I got really inspired and and recorded 45 00:02:32,250 --> 00:02:37,230 an almost two hour daily source code now. It seemed a while 46 00:02:37,230 --> 00:02:39,960 there's a lot of good music in it, but it seems like the more I 47 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,800 see and the more I witness in around me the more pissed off I 48 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,070 get. And it's a great release. I got it like ah, 49 00:02:47,369 --> 00:02:51,419 yeah. Better. So anyway, well, you know, tomorrow 50 00:02:51,420 --> 00:02:54,420 or tomorrow, probably Yeah, yeah, of course.

I sat in on a 63 00:03:33,900 --> 00:03:39,960 meeting with moody and Jennifer and actually Steve, I think was 64 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,790 in there. Dude, we are so kicking ass. You know between 65 00:03:44,910 --> 00:03:49,350 all the cross pollination pollenization we're doing with 66 00:03:49,350 --> 00:03:53,400 daily source code and no agenda and the tech five top five and 67 00:03:53,430 --> 00:03:56,670 what you the excellent promotion you gave on twit the other week 68 00:03:56,670 --> 00:03:59,400 and cranky geeks?

And then we're also behind it on the 106 00:05:40,529 --> 00:05:44,879 last debate which was so crappy decided not to do its show right 107 00:05:44,879 --> 00:05:48,269 afterwards because it was like, who cares? It's obvious now to 108 00:05:48,269 --> 00:05:54,839 both of us that these guys are coached not to screw up. Yeah, I 109 00:05:54,839 --> 00:06:02,759 was afraid this might happen. You there?

I'm 112 00:06:11,130 --> 00:06:14,370 receiving every single frickin Wi Fi in San Francisco. And 113 00:06:14,580 --> 00:06:18,060 they, you know, it's already gone in and out again. Crap. I 114 00:06:18,060 --> 00:06:22,260 hate this. It happens at the most inopportune moments. Okay, 115 00:06:22,290 --> 00:06:25,500 so let me see if I can get John back here. All right, you're 116 00:06:25,500 --> 00:06:26,640 back.

Shall we start? Shall we start with the 120 00:06:36,330 --> 00:06:38,430 you know, this kind of we don't want to make the show 10 hours 121 00:06:38,430 --> 00:06:41,730 long. No, but we have to decide it's not like 122 00:06:41,730 --> 00:06:46,920 we're gonna get laid or anything. I can I here's one. I 123 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,520 just like to throw in there. We had lunch yesterday. At the at 124 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:55,770 the steakhouse. What's his name? On the Acme Acme Steakhouse? And 125 00:06:55,770 --> 00:06:58,560 where you of course, are the food expert and wine aficionado. 126 00:06:58,710 --> 00:07:00,720 I've gotten pretty good at picking out great things on the 127 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:06,540 menu. And I had baby back ribs at Acme Steakhouse, which were 128 00:07:06,570 --> 00:07:08,070 unfreaking believable 129 00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:11,520 is the place that said Candlestick Park. Yeah. Would 130 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,070 you agree? Yeah, no, they were delicious. They were good. They 131 00:07:14,070 --> 00:07:17,130 were cooked. slow cooked for a really long time or they were 132 00:07:17,130 --> 00:07:20,010 fell right on they were probably bought pie did the way it was 133 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,130 reflecting on this dish. They weren't barbecued necessarily 134 00:07:23,130 --> 00:07:25,950 because they didn't have smoke ring or any evidence that they 135 00:07:25,950 --> 00:07:29,010 would have been red. But they obviously I think we're 136 00:07:29,010 --> 00:07:32,340 parboiled for a long time and then slow cooked baked or 137 00:07:32,340 --> 00:07:34,920 something like that. They were actually quite good to me my 138 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:39,360 wife does a version of that style and that's pretty much the 139 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:40,380 way it was I've never had 140 00:07:40,860 --> 00:07:42,900 I never had it that way and it literally just kind of like 141 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,240 almost felt fell off the bone was just 142 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:50,100 like, Well, yeah, it does. In fact, it tends shaken the meat 143 00:07:51,150 --> 00:07:53,730 all right, but that was not actually a place we went to for 144 00:07:53,730 --> 00:07:54,150 review. 145 00:07:54,570 --> 00:07:57,150 No, no, but you know the we've always actually had we've had a 146 00:07:57,150 --> 00:07:59,880 number of meals there and it's functional. It's a good little 147 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:03,750 restaurant. If you want a piece of meat you know they got steaks 148 00:08:03,750 --> 00:08:04,500 there that are nice. 149 00:08:04,530 --> 00:08:07,410 And we had an ass kicking Zinfandel. 150 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,180 Yeah, it was one of those. It was the anniversary Zinfandel 151 00:08:12,180 --> 00:08:15,330 from geyser it was the Geyserville Xin wood I'm sorry, 152 00:08:15,330 --> 00:08:20,100 it was the it was the ridge Geyserville Xin I think it was a 153 00:08:20,100 --> 00:08:25,650 2005 2006 one of the two and if Yeah, they'll do good. The the 154 00:08:25,650 --> 00:08:28,470 ridges infidels are always like that. They have that same 155 00:08:28,470 --> 00:08:31,950 character. They're very tasty. And I realised at the time when 156 00:08:31,950 --> 00:08:35,340 I ordered it that you probably haven't been really acquainted 157 00:08:35,340 --> 00:08:38,010 with a lot of these. This style of wine. 158 00:08:38,129 --> 00:08:41,729 Well, actually, Zinfandels, Patricia and I have used to 159 00:08:41,729 --> 00:08:44,759 drink quite a lot of you know, for us like a bottle a month 160 00:08:44,759 --> 00:08:50,039 maybe. But the alcohol content seemed a little bit higher. 161 00:08:50,309 --> 00:08:52,829 Well, you know, the problem right now was infinite, who I 162 00:08:52,829 --> 00:08:56,699 think the killer problem with Zinfandels is that the elk 163 00:08:56,699 --> 00:08:58,979 they're not keeping the alcohols down. And I think a lot of it 164 00:08:58,979 --> 00:09:02,849 has to do with the high tech yeasts that they're using, which 165 00:09:02,849 --> 00:09:08,009 jacked up the alcohol. And in the olden days. You know when 166 00:09:08,009 --> 00:09:10,559 they used to make zin in the backyards and these go into 167 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,519 small wineries. They used to cool off the must by throwing in 168 00:09:14,519 --> 00:09:19,079 blocks of ice. And actually when wine is made watered down a 169 00:09:19,079 --> 00:09:22,709 little bit in during the process of the winemaking. It 170 00:09:22,709 --> 00:09:26,309 incorporates the water quite nicely. In fact, I've I've done 171 00:09:26,309 --> 00:09:28,799 this with some wines and people out there who have these really, 172 00:09:28,829 --> 00:09:31,199 you know, like these really dark wines, you see that the alcohol 173 00:09:31,199 --> 00:09:35,609 is 15 Five or something like that. You can put some water in 174 00:09:35,609 --> 00:09:38,729 there like like you know like a third water and you'll notice it 175 00:09:38,729 --> 00:09:41,369 does and sometimes it makes the wine taste better, which is 176 00:09:41,369 --> 00:09:44,729 weird, but the way the absolute weirdest part about it was some 177 00:09:44,729 --> 00:09:47,699 of these extremely dark wines. For those of you out there who 178 00:09:47,699 --> 00:09:52,679 like to bluff. You can take one of these blockbuster wines that 179 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:57,779 comes out of the bottle almost black and put about 1/10 of a 180 00:09:57,779 --> 00:10:00,869 glass you'd like to buy just a little bit too bottom have a 181 00:10:00,899 --> 00:10:04,889 wineglass and then fill it up with water. And it looks like 182 00:10:04,889 --> 00:10:08,699 you've got a glass of red wine because there's so much, you 183 00:10:08,699 --> 00:10:13,709 know, the wines are so Inky, that you can, like, you know, 184 00:10:13,709 --> 00:10:16,049 look like you're drinking a lot when you're not. And one of the 185 00:10:16,049 --> 00:10:20,459 keys to success in parties, I might say, is to look like 186 00:10:20,459 --> 00:10:24,629 you're drinking. But not necessarily drinking. I mean, I 187 00:10:24,629 --> 00:10:26,939 go to these some of these events you pointing you can't drive 188 00:10:26,939 --> 00:10:29,279 around drunk anymore. And I hate that 189 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,060 when you drive around drunk all you wanted, man, that was a good 190 00:10:33,060 --> 00:10:33,480 time 191 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,120 ever go around drunk, but I'm saying that we used to drive 192 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,030 around. I used to work a couple of like swing shifts or 193 00:10:39,030 --> 00:10:42,270 graveyard things and you had to drive home with these drunks on 194 00:10:42,270 --> 00:10:44,880 the road. They're all over the place. And you would just you 195 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,410 know, you know, got used to it 196 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,110 when you do either. Graveyard Shift on the radio or the 197 00:10:49,110 --> 00:10:51,810 morning show the morning show, especially it's like you're 198 00:10:51,810 --> 00:10:53,640 going to work at four in the morning, man. That's when the 199 00:10:53,670 --> 00:10:56,580 idiots aren't on there are on the road. Great. Hey, let me 200 00:10:56,580 --> 00:11:00,000 just ask you a question about the Zinfandel. In the it's 201 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,400 almost like a sparkly type quality. Where does that come 202 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:02,760 from? 203 00:11:03,330 --> 00:11:05,940 A little you get sometimes you get a little Mallow lactic 204 00:11:05,940 --> 00:11:08,460 taking place in the bottle. It's that when it wasn't very 205 00:11:08,460 --> 00:11:12,450 extreme, it's actually a flaw that you can send the wine back 206 00:11:12,450 --> 00:11:15,330 if it's too bubbly. You don't want to you don't want a red 207 00:11:15,330 --> 00:11:18,150 wine that has any carbonation natural carbonation, because of 208 00:11:18,150 --> 00:11:21,030 a fermentation that takes place in the bottle. With a white 209 00:11:21,030 --> 00:11:24,030 wine. It's pretty hard to call it a flaw because some wines are 210 00:11:24,030 --> 00:11:25,380 actually designed to do that. 211 00:11:25,410 --> 00:11:29,010 Right? Nice. Well, it was a good one. I liked it. Now, it was 212 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,190 no it was very tasty. And what I liked about it is that it was 213 00:11:32,310 --> 00:11:35,250 what they used to call us, at least in the in the trade a 214 00:11:35,250 --> 00:11:39,270 field blend. Because in the olden days when people made 215 00:11:39,270 --> 00:11:42,090 Zinfandel, you know, for the family or whatever, they had 216 00:11:42,090 --> 00:11:44,760 their own little vineyard in the backyard with a blend of the 217 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,610 grapes was actually in the vineyard. They don't they 218 00:11:47,610 --> 00:11:49,920 wouldn't pick like go you know, batches in and then something 219 00:11:49,950 --> 00:11:51,960 else or something else and blend them. They were all just mixed 220 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,260 up. You'd have a Zinfandel plant next to a Caribbean plant next 221 00:11:55,260 --> 00:11:56,430 to whatever 222 00:11:56,460 --> 00:12:00,570 so this was the the Acme steakhouse Zinfandel as we had 223 00:12:00,570 --> 00:12:04,290 for lunch. It was a nice quality, the name again and the 224 00:12:04,290 --> 00:12:04,920 price, John. 225 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:11,340 It was a it was a ridge Geyserville Xin and the price I 226 00:12:11,340 --> 00:12:18,390 think, I think like this one, it would be a probably run 14 But I 227 00:12:18,390 --> 00:12:20,700 was not an expense. It's not one of the expensive sins. 228 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,310 There was good, though. Very nice. Very nice for lunch now. 229 00:12:23,340 --> 00:12:24,240 Yeah, no, it's perfect. 230 00:12:24,779 --> 00:12:28,379 So at the beginning of my, my stay here in San Francisco, we 231 00:12:28,379 --> 00:12:35,969 went to the Ritz Carlton. Right. And so this is now now we 232 00:12:35,969 --> 00:12:38,579 believe the chef May was at a new chef, or did he? 233 00:12:39,060 --> 00:12:41,880 You know, I didn't do any research afterwards. But, you 234 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,180 know, the past I don't know who the chef was, but he had a 235 00:12:45,180 --> 00:12:48,870 couple of techniques that were unbelievably great in the way he 236 00:12:48,870 --> 00:12:52,890 cooked meat. And he had a pork thing that I ordered was just 237 00:12:52,890 --> 00:12:55,470 astonishing. And you're you had something that was really good. 238 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,789 No, no, no, it was okay. But it wasn't a pro. My problem was, 239 00:12:59,970 --> 00:13:02,880 the pork was it was all the other stuff that he didn't match 240 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,360 flavours. 241 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,050 He had the wrong combinations yet, and it's been so long, I 242 00:13:07,050 --> 00:13:10,620 can't remember but it was like, you know, sometimes, like Apple 243 00:13:10,620 --> 00:13:13,710 and cheese goes together like peanut butter and chocolate, you 244 00:13:13,710 --> 00:13:15,930 know, that kind of thing. And he was trying to make that but it 245 00:13:15,930 --> 00:13:16,710 was falling flat? 246 00:13:17,039 --> 00:13:20,549 Oh, no, I would say it was one of the it was one of the most 247 00:13:20,549 --> 00:13:23,639 disappointing meals I've had in the high end. And I liked that 248 00:13:23,639 --> 00:13:26,519 place. But it was one of the most disappointing meals. I've 249 00:13:26,519 --> 00:13:30,029 had it in a high end restaurant in six months or a year. What 250 00:13:30,029 --> 00:13:33,779 was funny years you went so you had gotten quarters, of course 251 00:13:33,779 --> 00:13:36,809 because we don't valet were cheap asses and then reporting 252 00:13:36,809 --> 00:13:39,269 the quarters into that you were feeding the metre. And I hear 253 00:13:39,299 --> 00:13:43,079 and I hear someone asked this kind of like the greeter at the 254 00:13:43,109 --> 00:13:45,659 at the main entrance. So I hear someone say, hey, what was all 255 00:13:45,659 --> 00:13:48,119 the Secret Service here yesterday? And she said, No, I'm 256 00:13:48,119 --> 00:13:51,629 sorry, ma'am. We have to protect the identity of our guests. And 257 00:13:51,629 --> 00:13:54,419 I really can't hand out that information. So we're over 258 00:13:54,419 --> 00:13:56,879 talking to the guy at the restaurant waiting for our table 259 00:13:56,879 --> 00:13:59,189 and I say hey, what was the Secret Service about yesterday 260 00:13:59,189 --> 00:14:00,839 says oh, that was Schwarzenegger. He was here. 261 00:14:00,839 --> 00:14:05,399 Yeah, he showed up on an house. Like what a bogus bogus 262 00:14:05,399 --> 00:14:06,119 security. 263 00:14:06,179 --> 00:14:10,649 Yeah, well, that was funny. Now the other thing that was weird 264 00:14:10,649 --> 00:14:14,069 about that restaurant moving right along, moving right along. 265 00:14:14,699 --> 00:14:18,539 The other thing that was weird. That was the fact that the wine 266 00:14:18,539 --> 00:14:23,189 steward first we order I cherry picked a wine which I always do 267 00:14:23,189 --> 00:14:25,259 when people have been out to dinner with me No I do this 268 00:14:25,259 --> 00:14:28,859 constantly. I find some winner on the list that's just a killer 269 00:14:28,889 --> 00:14:29,159 that is 270 00:14:29,430 --> 00:14:32,910 not available not available and by killer it's the right wine 271 00:14:32,910 --> 00:14:33,900 and a great price. 272 00:14:34,140 --> 00:14:37,680 Right and so usually just stands out like a sore thumb like wow, 273 00:14:37,740 --> 00:14:40,830 so of course they're out. So he comes back with a substitute 274 00:14:40,830 --> 00:14:44,430 wine thing and then there was a wine specifically I don't like 275 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,810 and you know, just a wine I don't think much of and so he 276 00:14:48,810 --> 00:14:51,270 comes back with a third wine that he says he'll give us which 277 00:14:51,270 --> 00:14:53,460 is more a little more expensive and give us it the other price. 278 00:14:53,940 --> 00:14:57,090 But he has to get to cantor. I didn't know what it was was the 279 00:14:57,090 --> 00:14:58,590 second wine of cost. Destro No 280 00:14:58,590 --> 00:15:01,710 way. He said Oh, you know, you really should to campus. It's 281 00:15:01,710 --> 00:15:03,720 really you shouldn't just and we're like we don't use 282 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,120 because I always say I always tell you I don't think decanting 283 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,390 is necessary. 90% of the time it says I think it's, I think it's 284 00:15:09,570 --> 00:15:12,750 pretentious and you know, oh my god, you know, John, we 285 00:15:12,750 --> 00:15:15,840 never decaf we're just not like that. We're like the Frenchman 286 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,820 we just drink that shit almost right out of the bottle. 287 00:15:19,590 --> 00:15:23,310 Pretty close. Okay, so anyway, but you know, these places they 288 00:15:23,310 --> 00:15:25,800 gotta show off. So anyway, so he's gonna decant the wind, but 289 00:15:25,860 --> 00:15:28,830 this is a pagoda cos by the way, if anyone wants to know is a 290 00:15:28,830 --> 00:15:34,200 9098 functional wine. Anyway, so the he brings, he goes through 291 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,170 this rigmarole to cancel and he pretty much dumped a whole 292 00:15:37,170 --> 00:15:39,810 bottle of wine in the decanter, there wasn't any sludge in the 293 00:15:39,810 --> 00:15:43,620 bottle at all, from what I could tell. And so then he sniffing 294 00:15:43,620 --> 00:15:45,210 and swirling and sniffing it gives me 295 00:15:45,450 --> 00:15:47,460 he was really doing a whole number and I'm just sitting 296 00:15:47,460 --> 00:15:50,760 there going, luckily, I was high as a kite. So that helped. 297 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:56,370 So, so he throws down the glass, and he said, You know, I take 298 00:15:56,370 --> 00:16:00,210 one sniff, and of course, I made it, I probably was acting a 299 00:16:00,210 --> 00:16:04,530 little British under your influence. And then kind of 300 00:16:05,070 --> 00:16:08,940 understated my concern for this wine, which was totally cool. 301 00:16:08,970 --> 00:16:13,170 I think it's card at this is not, not entirely right, my dear 302 00:16:13,170 --> 00:16:14,910 friend, someone who actually what I said 303 00:16:14,909 --> 00:16:18,989 specifically was because he had already, you know, checked it 304 00:16:18,989 --> 00:16:21,269 out. And most wine stewards were to just immediately take the 305 00:16:21,269 --> 00:16:22,319 bottle back and he 306 00:16:22,319 --> 00:16:24,899 actually he took a sip first. Yeah. 307 00:16:24,990 --> 00:16:28,860 And he gives me the wine. I check it out. And I say, which 308 00:16:28,860 --> 00:16:31,740 is a way to put it if you want to kind of, you know, slightly 309 00:16:31,830 --> 00:16:37,920 it's I said to him exactly this. So you don't think this wine is 310 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:38,280 quite? 311 00:16:39,299 --> 00:16:42,179 That's true. You did say that after he had just taken the 312 00:16:42,179 --> 00:16:43,559 first swig of our wine. 313 00:16:44,279 --> 00:16:47,699 So he takes another check of it, you know, and the weird thing 314 00:16:47,699 --> 00:16:49,859 was that wine got 315 00:16:49,890 --> 00:16:53,430 gotten worse or worse. Really it Yeah, 316 00:16:53,580 --> 00:16:58,290 it took off and became so corked that it was going to stink up 317 00:16:58,290 --> 00:17:01,410 the whole place. explain to people what that means. corked 318 00:17:01,410 --> 00:17:06,660 wine is a is a as a, as a chemical called TPA that is in 319 00:17:06,690 --> 00:17:11,640 found and it's actually it's a weird contaminate that used to 320 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:16,260 only come from quarks that were rotting and it tastes and smells 321 00:17:16,260 --> 00:17:19,110 like and tastes like a rotting cork, if you can imagine what a 322 00:17:19,110 --> 00:17:23,490 rotten cork tastes like. And it has a horrible stench and it has 323 00:17:23,490 --> 00:17:26,760 a terrible flavour and it kills any of the fruit the wine might 324 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,450 have. Now the thing that's interesting, they discovered 325 00:17:30,450 --> 00:17:33,690 this, actually a French wine maker was also a chemist 326 00:17:34,230 --> 00:17:39,840 discovered some years back, I think in the mid 90s, that this 327 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,430 product is chemical TPA, which I don't have the can't think of 328 00:17:44,430 --> 00:17:49,650 the chemical name for it seems to show up in some forms of 329 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:54,840 paint. And so when wineries are painted, just the the the 330 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,950 evaporation just gets gets into the wine gets into the wine, the 331 00:17:58,950 --> 00:18:05,400 9097 Bv private reserved here in the Napa Valley because of 332 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,610 something sent one of these incidents of paint or something 333 00:18:08,610 --> 00:18:14,190 like that. The entire batch of 9096 9097, which is one of the 334 00:18:14,190 --> 00:18:18,990 great years in California. Bull you is sent out a note that if 335 00:18:18,990 --> 00:18:22,050 you have any of it, you want to bring it back for a swap. We'll 336 00:18:22,050 --> 00:18:25,860 give you something else because you know, we're sorry. Wow. And 337 00:18:25,860 --> 00:18:27,120 that was like a big. 338 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,050 Hey, do you want to do all the restaurants you want to talk 339 00:18:31,050 --> 00:18:33,060 about something else to come back to restaurants later? 340 00:18:33,330 --> 00:18:36,180 Well, I just I think we should. Yeah, let's do the restaurants, 341 00:18:36,180 --> 00:18:37,800 get them out of the way. And then people who don't want to 342 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,910 listen to the rap, turn it off after we're done. Okay, 343 00:18:41,970 --> 00:18:44,550 now, so anyway, where do we have next? Oh, you want to 344 00:18:45,599 --> 00:18:48,509 finish this? Because there was one, you know, I figured after I 345 00:18:48,719 --> 00:18:51,629 kind of insulted the wine waiter, he you know, didn't 346 00:18:52,260 --> 00:18:54,540 like you're right, because five minutes later, the glass that he 347 00:18:54,540 --> 00:18:56,250 had poured for me just was horrible. 348 00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,639 So anyway, so he came back with a good bottle and we you know, 349 00:18:59,639 --> 00:19:01,709 then he went and talked to us for a while, but then he finally 350 00:19:01,739 --> 00:19:04,919 you know, swallow his pride and came back and was more friendly. 351 00:19:05,279 --> 00:19:07,469 And then we, you know, we went through the meal, which was 352 00:19:07,469 --> 00:19:10,739 always these weird flavour combinations that didn't work at 353 00:19:10,739 --> 00:19:14,129 all. And then at the end, he turned us on to a CalVet dose. 354 00:19:14,699 --> 00:19:17,699 Yes, your rush is one of the cheapest ones on the list. And I 355 00:19:17,699 --> 00:19:19,949 have to go get the name of it or something because it was like 356 00:19:19,949 --> 00:19:24,239 I'm not a Callidus guy. It was unbelievably great. It was good. 357 00:19:24,899 --> 00:19:28,199 It was really good. I've never had a Kalba dose as good as 358 00:19:28,199 --> 00:19:28,529 that. 359 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,500 There was something good for for dessert as well. 360 00:19:33,390 --> 00:19:39,480 Yeah, I'm blanking on this. I can't remember. So then Anyway, 361 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,000 the next thing we do, we had lunch at Fring gall and it was 362 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,100 tasteless, and I was very disappointed 363 00:19:44,190 --> 00:19:47,610 that was and they do have a new chef there. Yeah, yeah. 364 00:19:48,869 --> 00:19:51,239 He was working that day but whatever the case was, it seems 365 00:19:51,239 --> 00:19:53,279 like seems like Hey, buddy, you know salt. 366 00:19:54,210 --> 00:19:57,450 A little marinate something for a second. It was just I had 367 00:19:57,450 --> 00:19:59,010 chicken it sucked. It was just it 368 00:19:59,010 --> 00:20:02,220 was not it was just A piece of shit. I was like, no, no good. 369 00:20:02,250 --> 00:20:05,730 No good. So no, I was just disappointed there. And, you 370 00:20:05,730 --> 00:20:08,130 know, that place has been a little spotty recently. I mean, 371 00:20:08,130 --> 00:20:10,560 I have had some really good food there. And, 372 00:20:10,830 --> 00:20:13,380 oh, that we've had some great lunches there. And I was 373 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,090 extremely disappointed. 374 00:20:15,149 --> 00:20:18,359 I'm wondering whether the chef was working. A lot of these 375 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,489 restaurants they don't do well with a chef gone. 376 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,120 We need to send Gordon Gordon over straighten those guys. 377 00:20:25,050 --> 00:20:26,910 There's no passion in your cooking man. 378 00:20:28,890 --> 00:20:32,850 And then we went to places fairly famous a newer restaurant 379 00:20:32,850 --> 00:20:34,920 in San Francisco that people might want to check out when 380 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,110 they're here because it's really a very especially if you're 381 00:20:37,110 --> 00:20:40,470 French. This place every time I go there I go. God, you know, I 382 00:20:40,470 --> 00:20:44,100 couldn't be in Paris eating it because it's French and not in 383 00:20:44,100 --> 00:20:47,130 like a Frenchie way with a bunch of French posters and things 384 00:20:47,130 --> 00:20:49,380 like that. It just has a weird French feel 385 00:20:49,410 --> 00:20:51,420 no aidid P off songs either. 386 00:20:51,750 --> 00:20:55,200 Right? None of the Cornwall stuff. But it just feels French. 387 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,020 If you've been to France enough, you go in there and you go wow, 388 00:20:58,020 --> 00:21:02,340 this place. I don't know what it is. But it's very small. Yeah, 389 00:21:02,369 --> 00:21:06,539 very small, like 50 tables, maybe not even 30 tables. Yes, 390 00:21:06,540 --> 00:21:10,380 I'm like that's called quince. And I've been there three times. 391 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,010 And it's a really good restaurant he got it was one of 392 00:21:14,010 --> 00:21:18,180 the first Michelin starred restaurants in San Francisco. I 393 00:21:18,180 --> 00:21:21,840 you liked it a little better than I did. I still was I wasn't 394 00:21:21,870 --> 00:21:22,680 jacked up 395 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,980 and we went to the for the for the tasting menu, which is 396 00:21:25,980 --> 00:21:28,380 always kind of an adventure because you're getting a little 397 00:21:28,380 --> 00:21:31,440 bit of everything and I have to say the way the proportions were 398 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,010 set and and just when I was saying are we getting any more 399 00:21:35,010 --> 00:21:37,320 after this said no, this is the last one and it was like okay, 400 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:41,220 that's perfect. It was the right amount of food for me. We didn't 401 00:21:41,220 --> 00:21:45,870 do the matching so you don't get a specific glass of wine or 402 00:21:45,870 --> 00:21:49,380 whatever it is for each tasting menu we selected our own which 403 00:21:49,380 --> 00:21:50,610 was was pretty good. 404 00:21:52,859 --> 00:21:56,309 What was it? It was a Vacher array is is what it was actually 405 00:21:56,309 --> 00:21:58,289 so here's the die have to give the guy credit because you 406 00:21:58,289 --> 00:22:00,269 notice this immediately I thought it was that was 407 00:22:00,269 --> 00:22:03,209 interesting. You noticed it it was a cheap wine. They were 408 00:22:03,209 --> 00:22:06,689 talking about a wine and a first class restaurant for $40 409 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,760 you would actually look that you were pointing at something that 410 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,430 was more like $100 because I could see what it was we were 411 00:22:11,430 --> 00:22:14,040 discussing the list and then he said no no, you should really 412 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,110 try this one. This was good. Yeah, it was like 40 bucks. 413 00:22:16,379 --> 00:22:21,149 Yeah, he down sold us into me amazing wine store that down on 414 00:22:21,149 --> 00:22:25,469 sells you as a wine store you can trust and the wine was 415 00:22:25,469 --> 00:22:28,709 outstanding. It could because I mean, this particular wine is 416 00:22:28,709 --> 00:22:31,559 usually nothing special. It's just kind of a drinking wine 417 00:22:31,559 --> 00:22:34,709 which which by the way, when you have a tasting menu, if you take 418 00:22:34,739 --> 00:22:37,709 people out there, if you go for the tasting menu, generally 419 00:22:37,709 --> 00:22:42,809 speaking, you don't want a wine that overpowers the food and 420 00:22:42,959 --> 00:22:46,019 chefs hate it when people you know ordered or love feet or off 421 00:22:46,019 --> 00:22:50,279 challenge some killer wine that actually distracts from the art 422 00:22:50,309 --> 00:22:53,789 artistry of their tasting menu. They'd rather have you have 423 00:22:53,789 --> 00:22:56,879 something functional that it just you know basically washes 424 00:22:56,879 --> 00:23:00,509 the food down slightly neutral not a bad one a good wine, but 425 00:23:00,509 --> 00:23:03,989 nothing that you should be not going ooh and or the wine all 426 00:23:03,989 --> 00:23:06,059 night you and me they don't like me. That's not what you're 427 00:23:06,149 --> 00:23:09,839 taking a tasting menu for you should be having an inexpensive 428 00:23:09,839 --> 00:23:14,039 functionally, a good wine with a tasting menu. Not some stunning 429 00:23:14,039 --> 00:23:19,019 $500 bottle that just Blows your head off. Anyway, that's a 430 00:23:19,019 --> 00:23:19,739 little tip. 431 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,620 It was good. I can't quite remember. I remember the every 432 00:23:22,620 --> 00:23:25,080 single dish I liked, but I don't really remember them. You know, 433 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,130 this just takes too long. 434 00:23:26,130 --> 00:23:30,390 It's too many there were too many pasta starchy dishes for my 435 00:23:30,390 --> 00:23:33,420 taste. There was a spaghetti thing that has some pieces of 436 00:23:33,420 --> 00:23:36,270 meat in it. I didn't like that. Yeah, like soup was good. 437 00:23:36,270 --> 00:23:36,450 There's 438 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,830 the Dungeness crab soup was outstanding because it didn't 439 00:23:40,830 --> 00:23:45,120 have any like crabby taste, you know? No, no sea foodie tastes 440 00:23:45,120 --> 00:23:45,630 it was you know, it 441 00:23:45,630 --> 00:23:48,660 was really good banter. And then at the end, there was some sort 442 00:23:48,660 --> 00:23:51,870 of a meat dish of some sort. There was a, you know, skirt 443 00:23:51,870 --> 00:23:53,850 steak or hanger steak or something like that cut into 444 00:23:53,850 --> 00:23:58,320 small slices. It was actually quite nice. And, or was a 445 00:23:58,500 --> 00:24:01,710 actually it was a fattier cut. I can't remember. But anyway, and 446 00:24:01,710 --> 00:24:08,070 then they had some some nice desserts. It was a good, it was 447 00:24:08,070 --> 00:24:09,750 a good it's a good place for people to check out. 448 00:24:10,260 --> 00:24:15,270 And it wasn't, it wasn't overly expensive either. wasn't cheap, 449 00:24:15,270 --> 00:24:20,850 but you know the, what's at the Ritz Carlton was at the wrist. 450 00:24:21,150 --> 00:24:23,160 Yeah, yeah, that was more expensive. 451 00:24:23,550 --> 00:24:27,570 Yeah. And it probably was less satisfying half a cent for this. 452 00:24:27,570 --> 00:24:28,560 And for the Calvados, 453 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,020 which is Whoa, yeah. But you know, that can't live on 454 00:24:31,020 --> 00:24:35,790 Calvados alone. Oh, you can have that at the bar. You don't. Oh, 455 00:24:35,790 --> 00:24:38,760 wow. So now are we having we're having one more dinner before I 456 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:39,570 leave Monday? 457 00:24:40,140 --> 00:24:41,220 You're leaving on Monday? 458 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,670 No, I'm leaving on. Now. We're eating on Monday, aren't we? 459 00:24:44,820 --> 00:24:46,650 Yeah. Okay, where are we going? 460 00:24:47,220 --> 00:24:49,710 There's the you know, it's a new place. It's called something 461 00:24:49,710 --> 00:24:52,500 like I actually can't remember the name of it. It's like, it's 462 00:24:52,500 --> 00:24:55,740 got some three letter name. We're gonna be adventurous. 463 00:24:56,370 --> 00:24:59,370 Yeah, well, this place I've seen a crops up in the conversation 464 00:24:59,370 --> 00:25:02,610 every so often. And then I think you know, I should check this 465 00:25:02,610 --> 00:25:06,330 place that we're we're gonna go up to Cyrus up in Healdsburg, 466 00:25:06,330 --> 00:25:09,360 which is one of the great restaurants in California. But 467 00:25:09,360 --> 00:25:14,940 it just seemed like too much too much work. And so we'll do this 468 00:25:14,940 --> 00:25:18,120 place it's called Ida or Eisah or something like that. I'm 469 00:25:18,120 --> 00:25:20,640 looking for the I should know the name off the top of my head. 470 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:24,300 But you know, just you know, as guys who are very experimental, 471 00:25:24,300 --> 00:25:27,180 everything's going to be kind of avant garde. Oh, boy, this 472 00:25:27,180 --> 00:25:30,810 fusion and midget it gets a lot of good reviews. 473 00:25:30,839 --> 00:25:33,539 You're not gonna leave me with a literally with a bad taste in my 474 00:25:33,539 --> 00:25:36,599 mouth. Eisah ISA is what it's called on Steiner Street. 475 00:25:36,930 --> 00:25:37,860 Is that it? Yeah, 476 00:25:38,220 --> 00:25:41,880 I'm looking at the that's pretty cool. We use opentable.com. 477 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,320 Yeah, points. Now, the interesting thing about 478 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,050 OpenTable, you get like 100 points every time you booked one 479 00:25:49,050 --> 00:25:52,170 of these points for I don't know, can you can you win by 480 00:25:52,170 --> 00:25:55,140 ever showing me that list of teddy bears or anything I can 481 00:25:55,140 --> 00:25:56,970 get for all these points are a free meal. 482 00:25:58,109 --> 00:25:59,909 We're gonna save for the bike. 483 00:26:00,180 --> 00:26:03,660 I get with these points. They said, you've now got 4000 484 00:26:03,660 --> 00:26:04,200 points. 485 00:26:05,369 --> 00:26:07,469 What what are those choppers? 486 00:26:09,570 --> 00:26:14,370 Points? Oh, he's baffled by that fantastic. And the weird part 487 00:26:14,370 --> 00:26:16,740 about it? Because they give you these points, whatever they 488 00:26:16,740 --> 00:26:21,030 mean, is that you, you have these. They have these 489 00:26:21,030 --> 00:26:23,940 occasional I only did this once I got 1000 points because 490 00:26:23,940 --> 00:26:27,660 sometimes just 100 points a reservation. But there's special 491 00:26:27,660 --> 00:26:30,540 deals. If you go to some restaurant that's about to go 492 00:26:30,540 --> 00:26:32,550 out of business. I'll give you 1000 points. 493 00:26:33,180 --> 00:26:35,160 Oh, there's incentives. I get it. 494 00:26:35,460 --> 00:26:39,390 There's incentives was like for what? The biggest kick out of 495 00:26:39,390 --> 00:26:39,660 that. 496 00:26:40,109 --> 00:26:42,929 We got to figure that out what those points are. Let me see. 497 00:26:43,229 --> 00:26:45,659 Maybe I should ask them. What was what did you What did you 498 00:26:45,659 --> 00:26:47,129 expect it to be on the website? 499 00:26:47,700 --> 00:26:50,430 But I you know, I never really paid much attention to I just go 500 00:26:50,430 --> 00:26:55,290 in there. By the way. For people out there who are concerned. 501 00:26:56,250 --> 00:27:00,420 There's a kind of a belief that there's a backdoor. 502 00:27:01,020 --> 00:27:04,950 Oh, yeah. On the Open Table. Yeah. You've told me about this. 503 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:05,700 Yeah. 504 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,170 You're doing if you're doing a con.

Well, I 523 00:28:18,810 --> 00:28:21,420 want to kind of leave it leave it to you because I've got an 524 00:28:21,420 --> 00:28:22,320 answer to everything. 525 00:28:24,540 --> 00:28:28,380 Yeah, you invested in gold, which was smart. Thank you. 526 00:28:28,860 --> 00:28:33,330 In fact, I bought some more. Oh, god. Yeah. I told you like 527 00:28:33,330 --> 00:28:35,760 Monday. Yeah, like Monday, I bought more. 528 00:28:36,060 --> 00:28:38,670 Yeah, I think it's I think it's I think that I think we're at 529 00:28:38,670 --> 00:28:43,440 rock bottom. Although I have a bet with my one of my broker 530 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:48,300 friends in Massachusetts, who actually owns a brokerage. He's 531 00:28:48,300 --> 00:28:51,570 saying 6000 And the bet I might bet is that the market is going 532 00:28:51,570 --> 00:28:55,590 to hit 14,000 before it hits 6000. And he ended when the 533 00:28:55,590 --> 00:28:59,700 market was at 10 Five and getting a little flaky. That's 534 00:28:59,700 --> 00:29:02,880 when he I gave the idea about the voices. I think he's gonna 535 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,430 hit 6000 Right. I think he's gonna hit 14 before it hits six. 536 00:29:05,430 --> 00:29:09,630 I'll bet you 100 bucks. And then he's the Rene wouldn't do it. He 537 00:29:09,630 --> 00:29:13,290 was chicken. But now that it like bounced off seven 800 or 538 00:29:13,290 --> 00:29:16,320 something you know, and can kind of rebounded. He's now he's big 539 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,740 shot. So he's gonna be took the bet finally. I can't see it 540 00:29:19,740 --> 00:29:23,070 going to six. Well, I but I'd be shocked. I'm not 541 00:29:23,070 --> 00:29:27,030 quite sure what you base that on. Because, of course, no one 542 00:29:27,060 --> 00:29:30,510 has any information. Apparently, we're just looking at CNBC half 543 00:29:30,510 --> 00:29:34,350 the day. But I think I think it'll go to 7500 this week. I 544 00:29:34,380 --> 00:29:37,440 think that is totally where they're going to keep the bottom 545 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:42,510 for a while. But they have to shock some more. And this is, 546 00:29:42,540 --> 00:29:45,600 you know, my theory, this is completely controlled demolition 547 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,840 of the financial system. And I'm happy to explain that more. But 548 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:49,530 I think 549 00:29:49,980 --> 00:29:54,150 you could probably explain it. You could really, I think daily 550 00:29:54,150 --> 00:29:56,190 source code, ladies and gentlemen, you should listen to 551 00:29:56,190 --> 00:29:59,430 his show, daily source code where he's going to explain that 552 00:30:00,719 --> 00:30:08,609 Fuck you. So I think 6000 is absolutely possible. 553 00:30:08,639 --> 00:30:12,479 Yeah, well, hey, I mean, this guy's a professional in the 554 00:30:12,479 --> 00:30:14,159 business and he agrees with you. 555 00:30:14,970 --> 00:30:18,780 So the thing that just blew me away, you know, we talked about 556 00:30:20,250 --> 00:30:22,770 we talked about last week we talked about Iceland about them 557 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,050 about the country basically going bankrupt. I think we did. 558 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:25,800 No, I 559 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:30,090 don't think we did anything. Like, I'm reading these stories. 560 00:30:30,090 --> 00:30:33,180 I mean, they're a bunch of these Iceland going bankrupt, going 561 00:30:33,180 --> 00:30:35,250 bankrupt. What did they do there? 562 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,290 They were in the banking business. That's what the it's 563 00:30:37,290 --> 00:30:39,720 only 300,000 people that lived there. They were all in the 564 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,050 banking business. But check it out, man because they had high 565 00:30:43,050 --> 00:30:47,190 interest rates. Everybody, including all these government 566 00:30:47,190 --> 00:30:51,690 services, all the counties in the UK and it's also I just read 567 00:30:51,690 --> 00:30:53,730 in the Netherlands, I'm sure we'll hear about France and 568 00:30:53,730 --> 00:30:57,300 other places, including the the London Metropolitan Police had 569 00:30:57,300 --> 00:31:00,600 50 million pounds stored there. Because of the high interest 570 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:04,020 rate, all those funds are frozen. And then Prime Minister 571 00:31:04,020 --> 00:31:07,620 Gordon Brown comes out and says, Hey, you know, I'm invoking the 572 00:31:07,620 --> 00:31:12,300 terrorism rule on you guys. It's like it's like, what? Yes. He 573 00:31:12,300 --> 00:31:15,240 said, I'm freezing all assets. Everything that has to do with 574 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:20,040 Iceland is now considered a terrorist threat. He input Yes, 575 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:20,580 he invoked 576 00:31:21,660 --> 00:31:25,230 using new Rico for just anything, you know, some women's 577 00:31:25,230 --> 00:31:25,620 so 578 00:31:25,619 --> 00:31:29,999 yes, I'm telling you now. This is ridiculous. I'll shoot I'll 579 00:31:29,999 --> 00:31:32,699 shoot your link. No, it's It's from the BBC. It's fucking 580 00:31:32,699 --> 00:31:37,439 crazy. Unbelievable. And this is why they wanted that Lisbon 581 00:31:37,439 --> 00:31:42,629 Treaty all set up before October surprise, surprise. God bless 582 00:31:42,629 --> 00:31:43,289 Ireland. 583 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:47,340 Good luck getting anything done now. Well, you know, it's all 584 00:31:47,340 --> 00:31:51,150 yes. Good day. Ireland. We'd love you. Yeah, 585 00:31:51,839 --> 00:31:54,809 absolutely. They're standing strong. They're holding back on 586 00:31:54,809 --> 00:31:57,509 this. This is This is nuts. You can't have you know, 587 00:31:58,589 --> 00:32:01,589 immediately, you know, the IMF and the World Bank show up of 588 00:32:01,589 --> 00:32:04,349 course, these guys look at them. If you see him on C span or 589 00:32:04,349 --> 00:32:06,629 anywhere else, they're all smiling because I like it. We do 590 00:32:06,629 --> 00:32:09,029 this all the time in Africa. I'm going to do it to the fucking 591 00:32:09,029 --> 00:32:12,479 United States. Hey, you want to loan? Hey, Iceland, you want to 592 00:32:12,479 --> 00:32:15,389 loan? Yeah, if you if you default on the loan, of course, 593 00:32:15,389 --> 00:32:18,269 we'll take your firstborn. So Iceland says nah, screw you 594 00:32:18,269 --> 00:32:23,459 guys. And they go to Russia. Politically, this is this is out 595 00:32:23,459 --> 00:32:26,759 of control with the Icelanders did they they asked for a 4 596 00:32:26,759 --> 00:32:31,559 billion euro loan from Russia. And they said the IMF and the 597 00:32:31,559 --> 00:32:33,329 World Bank said no, thank you. We hate we don't like your 598 00:32:33,329 --> 00:32:35,819 conditions. You know, which means you know, of course 599 00:32:35,819 --> 00:32:38,459 they'll take all the mineral assets or whatever. Iceland 600 00:32:38,459 --> 00:32:41,069 Yeah, right. Some scam. Yeah. What they've done in Africa all 601 00:32:41,069 --> 00:32:44,009 these years. economic hitmen? style. That's what's happening. 602 00:32:44,309 --> 00:32:50,759 Yeah. And so now we have all the g7 financial ministers meeting 603 00:32:50,969 --> 00:32:56,519 tomorrow, the the EU financial ministers meet. And the 604 00:32:56,519 --> 00:33:00,149 predictions and this actually Silvio Berlusconi said this. 605 00:33:01,979 --> 00:33:04,559 Think it was yesterday and he retracted it a couple hours 606 00:33:04,559 --> 00:33:07,109 later, he said, you know the financial markets are all going 607 00:33:07,109 --> 00:33:10,559 to shut down for a couple of days or maybe a week while we 608 00:33:10,559 --> 00:33:12,779 figure it all out. And of course, basically rewrite the 609 00:33:12,779 --> 00:33:16,439 rules. It's been done before. And but it's funny because he 610 00:33:16,439 --> 00:33:18,629 immediately retracted that statement said no, no, no, it's 611 00:33:18,629 --> 00:33:20,759 just something I heard on the radio. No world leader actually 612 00:33:20,759 --> 00:33:28,049 said that. Like you could just see the red phone ringing. Bald 613 00:33:28,079 --> 00:33:35,969 Italian shit. What do you do on your dipshit? And in the you 614 00:33:35,969 --> 00:33:40,949 know, so then of course, they'll fix the whole system. Emphasis 615 00:33:40,949 --> 00:33:46,349 on fix, dude, we can now borrow our own money at interest. This 616 00:33:46,349 --> 00:33:49,829 is so cool. Then, you know, so our tax money goes into the 617 00:33:49,829 --> 00:33:53,249 banks and then the banks will lend it to you for a fee. 618 00:33:54,900 --> 00:33:57,090 That's not genius. 619 00:33:57,750 --> 00:34:03,030 Yeah, of course. The people who own the world Oh man. 620 00:34:04,140 --> 00:34:06,720 Well, the Iceland thing has fascinated me because I guess 621 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,870 there's some billionaire there screwed things up. And you know, 622 00:34:09,870 --> 00:34:12,450 I've been to Iceland I think as I've been there 623 00:34:13,050 --> 00:34:15,690 let John they over leveraged that's they did what everyone 624 00:34:15,690 --> 00:34:16,560 else did. Except Yeah, they 625 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,140 got suckered. Yeah, of course they got. By the way. There was 626 00:34:19,140 --> 00:34:21,510 a funny article with some one of these bankers there was it 627 00:34:21,510 --> 00:34:25,110 wasn't the IMF. It was some some other big oversea groups and 628 00:34:25,110 --> 00:34:27,570 they ranked all the banks. This is blog, by the way and the 629 00:34:27,570 --> 00:34:30,600 vortex.org/blog Look it up. Anyway, they ranked all the 630 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:35,220 banks in the world and Canada came in number one, because they 631 00:34:35,220 --> 00:34:37,380 didn't buy into any of this crap. And we're done now. 632 00:34:38,010 --> 00:34:39,930 Britain came in 44. And we 633 00:34:39,929 --> 00:34:42,299 came in 40. Cat makes Yes. 634 00:34:43,830 --> 00:34:48,870 So he came in 40. Yeah. And, and the you know, you'd like I said 635 00:34:48,870 --> 00:34:52,980 Great Britain came in 44th. But we came in 40. Just below 636 00:34:52,980 --> 00:34:57,300 Namibia. The Namibians have a better banking system than we 637 00:34:57,300 --> 00:34:59,940 have. What is wrong with this picture? 638 00:35:01,469 --> 00:35:03,929 Well, I think they're rolling it all up, man. They're all rolling 639 00:35:03,929 --> 00:35:06,899 it up into one system, they're going to rewrite the rules. And 640 00:35:06,899 --> 00:35:08,579 that will be based on carbon credits. 641 00:35:09,060 --> 00:35:13,350 We have we have one of the bloggers, one of my editors on 642 00:35:13,350 --> 00:35:18,630 the divorce.org/blog to work uncensored site has picked up on 643 00:35:18,630 --> 00:35:21,930 the over this weekend, there's a rumour going around, they're 644 00:35:21,930 --> 00:35:24,240 going to try to make an international banking system of 645 00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:26,820 some sort that works better. Well, yeah. And that's not what 646 00:35:26,820 --> 00:35:30,990 I just said. Yes, what you just said is what you've been saying 647 00:35:30,990 --> 00:35:31,980 for a while. Yeah, 648 00:35:32,009 --> 00:35:36,269 and it'll be based on carbon credits. I read those 451 pages 649 00:35:36,269 --> 00:35:39,239 John and Annie while the media is like oh, there's wouldn't 650 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,539 arrowheads bla bla bla bla, if you actually look into this 651 00:35:42,539 --> 00:35:47,999 thing, man, it's just handed all over. Go ahead. Go make it 652 00:35:48,059 --> 00:35:50,639 they're gonna they're just gonna make up one banking system. 653 00:35:51,089 --> 00:35:53,219 It'll all be rolled up at the top 654 00:35:53,249 --> 00:35:57,629 what carbon credits what a scam. Yeah, but that's what it's 655 00:35:57,630 --> 00:36:00,960 gonna be. It's already in this bill. They're setting it up. 656 00:36:01,170 --> 00:36:04,140 Because think about it. You know, gold of course we know 657 00:36:04,170 --> 00:36:06,480 won't work anymore. Because there's there's probably not 658 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,210 enough gold to cover all the crap all the paper that's out 659 00:36:09,210 --> 00:36:11,820 there. So if you take carbon credits, you can set a random 660 00:36:11,820 --> 00:36:14,400 number and say, you know, that's the limit. We can't have any 661 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:19,200 more just have the IPCC drop some stupid, stupid document and 662 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,350 we'll all buy it like idiots have Al Gore do a video clip and 663 00:36:22,350 --> 00:36:23,940 we'll go along like stupid sheep. 664 00:36:24,689 --> 00:36:27,089 And you know, who's one of the guys behind it? If you would 665 00:36:27,089 --> 00:36:29,549 there's floating around you can anyone out there can check it 666 00:36:29,549 --> 00:36:35,249 out, which is the George Soros are being interviewed by 667 00:36:35,579 --> 00:36:38,639 Excuse me, how long? How long have I been telling you that 668 00:36:38,639 --> 00:36:40,709 George Soros is is in this whole game? 669 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:46,320 You've always this is one of your themes. Yes.

They 675 00:37:07,860 --> 00:37:10,080 say most of the people in the media when it comes to like if 676 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:16,140 you even bring up you know, default credit swaps know what's 677 00:37:16,830 --> 00:37:20,220 on this land? They don't get it they don't know they don't want 678 00:37:20,220 --> 00:37:24,450 to know anyway so so Soros is on Moyers and he's like going on 679 00:37:24,450 --> 00:37:27,210 and on and on and be good you know say all sounds pretty good 680 00:37:27,210 --> 00:37:30,330 you know, because he sounds like he's got a grip on it.

There's usually not a problem. I'm not 728 00:39:54,839 --> 00:40:01,199 downloading anything. I don't think I was looking at it. You 729 00:40:01,199 --> 00:40:02,159 know, people should, it's 730 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:06,900 always possible that somebody is latched on, you know, some, some 731 00:40:06,900 --> 00:40:10,260 eight, you know, some person is like somehow got pretty good 732 00:40:11,250 --> 00:40:13,980 encryption.

I mean, you know, at the end of 735 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:25,890 the day, I'm in a huge apartment building. So maybe that maybe 736 00:40:25,890 --> 00:40:28,410 that might be neighbours.

This time, there was something really 756 00:41:29,130 --> 00:41:29,610 weird, 757 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,120 I think so I'm getting a according to this thing. 1.6 758 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:38,700 megabits down, as opposed to 16 which I normally get. And I 759 00:41:38,700 --> 00:41:42,000 can't figure out what the deal is. Because this isn't working 760 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,220 right here on the whole place. Unless there's somebody unless 761 00:41:44,220 --> 00:41:46,080 something you know, I was gone for a few days, I turned off the 762 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,000 modem and next thing maybe doesn't come back to life, 763 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,550 right? I don't know. Well, it sounds okay. Now, see, neighbour 764 00:41:50,550 --> 00:41:50,760 don't 765 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,220 mess with anything. Yeah. And she's beautiful. But I have not 766 00:41:53,220 --> 00:41:57,060 seen her since that one quick, competent conversation we had 767 00:41:57,060 --> 00:42:00,240 where she, she was like, Oh, I work two hours a day for Obama. 768 00:42:00,270 --> 00:42:03,330 And I know she could see my face. 769 00:42:05,850 --> 00:42:11,160 The look of disappointment. Well work two hours a day for Obama. 770 00:42:12,150 --> 00:42:14,580 As you say like that guy Obama. 771 00:42:16,140 --> 00:42:22,470 Even I'm not that sleazy. Because I do Obama rocks. I knew 772 00:42:24,810 --> 00:42:28,650 I'm so stupid. Of course, the goes through my head is like 773 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,510 don't say anything. Don't say anything. Don't say anything. 774 00:42:30,510 --> 00:42:32,760 Don't get into it. Because usually I'll say I hate both 775 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,520 those guys. I hate McCain and Obama. You know, this is a total 776 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,550 sham and like, don't get into it don't get complicated. And by 777 00:42:38,550 --> 00:42:41,880 then it was too late. You know? Hey, but you're right. I should 778 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:45,690 have totally sad man. He's He's the bomb. He's so the bomb. I 779 00:42:45,690 --> 00:42:49,080 went over to my place and I'll show you my Obama posters. 780 00:42:52,380 --> 00:42:54,210 For two hours, Holy mackerel. 781 00:42:54,240 --> 00:42:57,240 Oh, by the way. Oh, by the way, this is so funny. You may have 782 00:42:57,240 --> 00:43:01,080 blogged this, but it showed up on the drop.io/no agenda, 783 00:43:01,380 --> 00:43:07,080 apparently. So there's early voting and in upstate New York, 784 00:43:07,770 --> 00:43:12,480 on the ballot, or absent this is actually an absentee voting. A 785 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,390 whole slew of ballots went out and you could choose the name 786 00:43:15,420 --> 00:43:23,970 Barack Osama what exactly that was the name the instead of 787 00:43:23,970 --> 00:43:26,460 Barack Obama it said Barack Osama 788 00:43:27,930 --> 00:43:33,720 Well, that sounds corrupt humba ballot. I love it. Good move. 789 00:43:33,720 --> 00:43:35,970 That's the best Republicans can do. 790 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:42,810 Oh my goodness. That's so funny. Oh sama. 791 00:43:43,140 --> 00:43:44,790 Okay. Well, let's talk about the debate. 792 00:43:48,630 --> 00:43:52,260 Well, I mean, I I've talked about this on daily source code, 793 00:43:52,260 --> 00:43:55,440 I can be really, you know, short, it's just the thing. So 794 00:43:55,440 --> 00:44:00,270 it was a lousy TV show. It was a stupid set. They promised us a 795 00:44:00,270 --> 00:44:03,990 town hall meeting or that was bullshit. It was a it was a it 796 00:44:03,990 --> 00:44:07,050 was a set with with bleachers there wasn't even like a fake 797 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,080 the completion of pho kind of like capital looking building 798 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,900 type set, it could have done that with some arches, and made 799 00:44:12,900 --> 00:44:16,440 it look a little different than now. I mean, because, you know, 800 00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:20,010 this is McCain's thing and not not again, not that I give a 801 00:44:20,010 --> 00:44:26,160 shit who wins because both of them are run by evil people. But 802 00:44:27,690 --> 00:44:32,430 it has been pretty funny to see how David Letterman and Jon 803 00:44:32,430 --> 00:44:35,700 Stewart have made a lot of fun of that debate because they it 804 00:44:35,700 --> 00:44:38,130 was pretty prone to video editing and doing some cool 805 00:44:38,130 --> 00:44:41,160 stuff with it. Particularly McCain roaming around while 806 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,890 Obama was talking. They got some isolated cameras and said doing 807 00:44:43,890 --> 00:44:46,950 some funny stuff. But otherwise, it was just it was pretty 808 00:44:46,950 --> 00:44:50,220 boring, although I will say I thought it was interesting that 809 00:44:50,220 --> 00:44:53,670 John McCain said and this is what not so interesting about 810 00:44:53,670 --> 00:44:56,850 what he said but about the the public's reaction. He said you 811 00:44:56,850 --> 00:44:59,550 know wouldn't you want your your mortgages to be bought up and 812 00:44:59,550 --> 00:45:03,390 then you know sold back to you at a at a better rate on a 30 813 00:45:03,390 --> 00:45:09,600 year. And the the mainstream media picks us up as what an 814 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,750 idiot well how can he say something stupid like that? And 815 00:45:12,750 --> 00:45:14,670 people start repeating that and I'm thinking, you know, that's 816 00:45:14,670 --> 00:45:15,960 actually not a bad idea. 817 00:45:17,070 --> 00:45:20,730 Actually Soros had a similar idea which is kind of the irony 818 00:45:20,730 --> 00:45:23,400 of that. So I'm sure the mainstream media is like 819 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:27,150 confused now. Oh, wait a minute Soros says it's good idea to 820 00:45:27,150 --> 00:45:30,210 well, maybe we're let's just stop talking about it. We're 821 00:45:32,460 --> 00:45:35,340 just horrible. That mean, the mainstream media is just really 822 00:45:35,340 --> 00:45:37,380 it's just deteriorated. There's not a 823 00:45:37,650 --> 00:45:40,110 single single programme or station you can watch where 824 00:45:40,110 --> 00:45:41,850 you're actually getting any information. 825 00:45:43,140 --> 00:45:46,230 So I thought it was interesting that Obama would had the stylish 826 00:45:46,230 --> 00:45:48,090 way of sitting with his suit on he looks 827 00:45:48,090 --> 00:45:52,230 like he's in GQ. Yeah, he looks hot, totally. 828 00:45:52,830 --> 00:45:54,510 And big smile on his face. 829 00:45:56,340 --> 00:46:00,360 I like that. No, he was good. He definitely had that whole. There 830 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:04,290 were barstools or something like that. But he felt very 831 00:46:04,290 --> 00:46:04,890 comfortable. 832 00:46:06,420 --> 00:46:08,940 Let me just mention a couple of things that I noticed that that 833 00:46:08,940 --> 00:46:12,090 I brought out I have this big giant box that I've written all 834 00:46:12,090 --> 00:46:16,140 those notes on Okay, and I recited it because it was going 835 00:46:16,140 --> 00:46:19,470 to be well you know, if you take a big box by the way this tape 836 00:46:19,470 --> 00:46:19,950 for people 837 00:46:20,010 --> 00:46:23,160 then you lose your notes. Is that what this is about? 838 00:46:23,940 --> 00:46:29,820 He got it I got this big huge box I can show it to you I can 839 00:46:29,820 --> 00:46:32,340 take a picture I believe you please do this and be well hey, 840 00:46:32,340 --> 00:46:35,100 what can I say take up take your time flies you know take 841 00:46:35,100 --> 00:46:39,720 a picture of of your of your work room anyway. I will note in 842 00:46:39,720 --> 00:46:41,730 that note, write that on your box. 843 00:46:42,989 --> 00:46:48,779 And box. Yeah, but she I would have lost the notes if they're 844 00:46:48,779 --> 00:46:52,409 on paper. But the big box is like laying around the house. So 845 00:46:52,409 --> 00:46:53,429 I guess this box 846 00:46:53,430 --> 00:46:55,320 is bucking box. Oh, yeah. And I remember 847 00:46:56,430 --> 00:47:00,000 all right. God knows. Unless you want I got most of the sides 848 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:04,290 covered. But anyway, so Okay, so both these guys are kind of 849 00:47:04,290 --> 00:47:06,840 boneheads, but my favourite is Obama. I have a lot of 850 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:08,670 favourites. But one of them. I'm going to start with some of the 851 00:47:08,670 --> 00:47:12,300 notes on this box. I actually wrote too many notes. Obama's 852 00:47:12,300 --> 00:47:16,740 going on spending time talking about Kennedy Roosevelt and 853 00:47:16,740 --> 00:47:19,620 doubling the Peace Corps. And there were that I think we've 854 00:47:19,620 --> 00:47:22,470 got a double the Peace Corps. Hey, buddy, I thought you're 855 00:47:22,470 --> 00:47:25,560 supposed to be the future changes. You know, they go back 856 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:29,250 to the 60s the Republicans have the Republicans have a good 857 00:47:29,250 --> 00:47:31,440 point about him looking backwards all the time because 858 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:36,960 that's what he's doing. Kennedy Roosevelt, the Peace Corps.

They're they're over the hill, both of them, 897 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:49,920 they suck. By the way, I want to mention something here for 898 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:55,020 everyone who likes to listen to right wing talk radio. I got the 899 00:49:55,020 --> 00:49:57,690 biggest kick and one of the guys who made this flaw and I think 900 00:49:57,690 --> 00:50:01,530 they've all pretty much done it but A lot of the strategist too. 901 00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:05,130 And the one I'm pointing the finger at here is Rush Limbaugh 902 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:10,020 who does and he's not the only one it's like in the argument 903 00:50:10,020 --> 00:50:13,440 goes like this look Biden made all these really good attacks on 904 00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:18,330 Obama and Hillary had these fantastic things that she had 905 00:50:18,330 --> 00:50:22,560 brought up against Obama why he should lose and what was why you 906 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:26,430 shouldn't vote for him you should Why isn't McCain take 907 00:50:26,430 --> 00:50:29,430 picking this up and going with this you know, with these great 908 00:50:29,430 --> 00:50:32,130 arguments that these two people made and the first thing that 909 00:50:32,130 --> 00:50:36,720 comes to my mind is hey, those guys lost with those arguments 910 00:50:36,720 --> 00:50:37,440 Exactly. 911 00:50:37,619 --> 00:50:41,249 Go in the negative thing isn't working that just does not work 912 00:50:41,249 --> 00:50:45,689 people are sick and tired of it they really bright Yeah, and 913 00:50:45,689 --> 00:50:47,759 when either one of the candidates because I did watch 914 00:50:47,759 --> 00:50:50,159 CNN this time when either one of the candidates goes all 915 00:50:50,159 --> 00:50:53,879 patriotic you know all people just love it nationalism 916 00:50:53,909 --> 00:50:57,299 boingboing spike in the charts on both sides. 917 00:50:59,100 --> 00:51:03,360 Yeah, nationalisms in. Um, so apparently, neither one of them 918 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:03,960 get that 919 00:51:03,989 --> 00:51:07,889 I really I just for the country. I was gonna say just for the 920 00:51:07,889 --> 00:51:12,449 country sake, I really hope Obama wins. I really do. I mean, 921 00:51:12,479 --> 00:51:16,109 I don't want to hear why. Because you know, if he loses, 922 00:51:16,229 --> 00:51:19,109 oh, man, we're gonna have it'll be riots. It's gonna be messed 923 00:51:19,109 --> 00:51:23,369 up. I see the hatred. I see that I feel the tension. Please. I 924 00:51:23,369 --> 00:51:26,279 want him to win. And then I can just you know, every day I'll 925 00:51:26,279 --> 00:51:28,709 have a new show and say, well, he lied about that. Oh, gee, 926 00:51:28,709 --> 00:51:30,839 he's not going to do that. Oh, well, look, we're still at war. 927 00:51:30,869 --> 00:51:33,899 Oh, look, oh, the economy's still shit, you know, it'll be a 928 00:51:33,899 --> 00:51:37,199 lot more interesting. And it will be a lot you know, then 929 00:51:37,229 --> 00:51:40,859 maybe that rage will be converted into something else. 930 00:51:40,859 --> 00:51:43,319 So we when they find out that he's just the frontman and a 931 00:51:43,319 --> 00:51:43,889 shill. 932 00:51:47,460 --> 00:51:50,970 Yeah, well, that's what you know, Brzezinski and and Soros 933 00:51:50,970 --> 00:51:54,480 and those guys will be running the country. So we're raping it. 934 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:59,190 I thought it was weird that that but let's face it, McCain is 935 00:51:59,190 --> 00:52:02,760 losing this election because he turns out to be a weak 936 00:52:02,790 --> 00:52:06,960 candidate. He doesn't look good on television. He doesn't 937 00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:11,730 present himself well. He's doing a crappy job. I mean, it's not 938 00:52:11,730 --> 00:52:14,880 that he can't win, but it's like, you know, maybe this thing 939 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:16,560 is rigged so he doesn't win. Well, 940 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:19,440 so that's the real question he comes up with is the voting 941 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:22,200 machines you know, and all that that's where it maybe doesn't 942 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:26,130 even matter maybe it's just academic dude. I have no trust 943 00:52:29,310 --> 00:52:31,410 economy due to lunch you notice that? 944 00:52:32,370 --> 00:52:33,540 Don't tase me bro 945 00:52:35,700 --> 00:52:39,360 let's see here an elegant walking. Oh, yeah. The other 946 00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:41,760 thing is in this town hall meeting which was hardly that 947 00:52:42,780 --> 00:52:45,810 McCain looks terrible wandering around. He's like he's gonna you 948 00:52:45,810 --> 00:52:48,360 know because it's not like a close intimate thing. He's like 949 00:52:48,390 --> 00:52:51,510 walking it looks like a robot he cuz he's so beat up from the you 950 00:52:51,510 --> 00:52:54,690 know, his days and, and, you know, Obama's kind of slick and 951 00:52:54,690 --> 00:52:58,590 he's moving around. Yeah. So I thought that was bad. That 952 00:52:58,590 --> 00:52:59,280 didn't look good. 953 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:03,150 That get well you know, again, it's rich. What what McCain is 954 00:53:03,150 --> 00:53:06,480 good at and I have seen it more on C span than anywhere else. 955 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,940 Yeah. When he when he's in the crowd. And obviously there's no 956 00:53:08,940 --> 00:53:11,370 opponent there. But he's when he's in a crowd. You know, he 957 00:53:11,370 --> 00:53:13,680 really he works the audience. He's great. This wasn't an 958 00:53:13,710 --> 00:53:17,970 audience. It's like half a stacked audience. They had all 959 00:53:17,970 --> 00:53:21,720 preset pre pre configured questions. Everyone knew what 960 00:53:21,720 --> 00:53:23,790 was coming and they just everyone sat there and read the 961 00:53:23,790 --> 00:53:27,390 script. In fact, Tom Brokaw at the end said dudes get out of my 962 00:53:27,390 --> 00:53:28,830 way I can't read the script 963 00:53:34,950 --> 00:53:38,250 now dammit, I got this really good quote here but I only have 964 00:53:38,250 --> 00:53:41,220 part of I don't remember what it was a reference to but Obama 965 00:53:41,220 --> 00:53:44,520 said one of the dumbest things ever about the internet. I'm 966 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:50,340 gonna have to make an no wasn't about the internet because it 967 00:53:50,340 --> 00:53:53,160 was something else like predates the internet. And it was a 968 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:57,300 stupidest thing he's ever said. Man, well, 969 00:53:57,300 --> 00:54:00,750 he had to do a search on the horse. I'll help him maybe. 970 00:54:01,380 --> 00:54:02,910 Maybe it'll trigger something. So 971 00:54:03,989 --> 00:54:06,929 okay, this was before the internet. But he was something 972 00:54:06,929 --> 00:54:10,739 that there was a reference to something some technology but it 973 00:54:10,739 --> 00:54:11,789 wasn't well know 974 00:54:11,790 --> 00:54:15,300 what he said. The boneheaded thing I heard was it started out 975 00:54:15,300 --> 00:54:17,760 just like a research project. That's what got all the that's 976 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:20,460 what made the personal computer and it was made as a government 977 00:54:20,460 --> 00:54:23,910 research defence project. And what he meant was the internet 978 00:54:23,910 --> 00:54:25,080 but he said computers 979 00:54:27,210 --> 00:54:29,970 Okay, well then he said it this way, because I got the exact 980 00:54:29,970 --> 00:54:32,820 quote in may have been about computers and it wasn't. It was 981 00:54:32,820 --> 00:54:36,630 the following invented by government scientists for 982 00:54:36,630 --> 00:54:40,140 defence purposes, so we could better communicate Oh, this is 983 00:54:40,140 --> 00:54:43,020 it. This was the invention of the computer, the original 984 00:54:43,020 --> 00:54:46,290 computer. The UNIVAC did thing at night, you know during the 985 00:54:46,290 --> 00:54:49,380 war. Yeah. So yeah, okay, that's what it was. So when the first 986 00:54:49,380 --> 00:54:55,350 computer was invented, which is arguably in 1930 or 1940, 987 00:54:55,350 --> 00:54:59,160 depending on what what timeline you want. He said the following 988 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,280 invented by government scientists for defence purposes 989 00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:05,790 so we could better communicate. It wasn't about communication it 990 00:55:05,790 --> 00:55:10,680 was about about calculating artillery shells and other 991 00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:14,490 things. Computer wasn't used for communications until there was 992 00:55:14,490 --> 00:55:18,120 networking, which took a long time to develop. So this is just 993 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:22,980 bull. Yep. That sounds like, essentially, you know, I've 994 00:55:22,980 --> 00:55:26,010 noticed this with this guy, he makes it up as he goes along. 995 00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:29,370 Yeah, he sounds good. He reminds me of like, my kids, when they 996 00:55:29,370 --> 00:55:32,940 were like, 12. You know, they just say, you know, stuff off 997 00:55:32,940 --> 00:55:35,490 the top of their head is always true. I love it. When he that 998 00:55:35,490 --> 00:55:36,870 really bothers me about Tesla, 999 00:55:36,870 --> 00:55:39,600 when he explains what he does all the numbers about, it'll be 1000 00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:43,800 $2,500. And if you're making less than $250,000, John McCain 1001 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,650 wants to tax your rebates for the first time you're going to 1002 00:55:46,650 --> 00:55:50,880 tax this, like, and my eyes are rolling in my head is swimming 1003 00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:53,550 like, and now am I getting that good deal or not? I don't 1004 00:55:53,550 --> 00:56:00,990 understand that anymore. And he did the I think he did this. 1005 00:56:01,020 --> 00:56:05,820 Maybe it was McCain the, you know, we have 3% of the world's 1006 00:56:05,820 --> 00:56:08,100 oil. We use 25% Oh, I 1007 00:56:08,100 --> 00:56:11,340 hate this This. This. I've been I've been getting some email on 1008 00:56:11,340 --> 00:56:15,330 this. I hate this bullshit. I can't believe that they get away 1009 00:56:15,330 --> 00:56:18,960 with it. We have 3% of the oil reserves. And we use 20. And 1010 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:23,610 we're the 25. We use Word. We use a quarter we're the we 1011 00:56:23,610 --> 00:56:28,740 consume 25% on a yearly basis that 3% of the oil reserves can 1012 00:56:28,740 --> 00:56:32,940 represent 100 years of use for us. But it doesn't, but it's 1013 00:56:32,940 --> 00:56:36,510 like the way they structure it. It's a bogus specious argument. 1014 00:56:36,510 --> 00:56:38,550 It just galls me every time I hear it 1015 00:56:38,580 --> 00:56:41,640 well, but most people can't get past the voting numbers on 1016 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:45,060 American Idol, John, that's the problem that this is this is the 1017 00:56:45,060 --> 00:56:49,650 type of numbers we understand. Okay, got more votes? Got it. 1018 00:56:51,240 --> 00:56:56,670 Okay, two to two to one. Maybe if I text I can change something 1019 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:57,630 in the world. 1020 00:56:57,990 --> 00:57:00,510 You know, most people didn't they never bring up the fact by 1021 00:57:00,510 --> 00:57:03,840 the way that coal were the Saudi Arabia of coal, the United 1022 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:07,770 States, we have enough coal, forget all the alternative 1023 00:57:07,770 --> 00:57:11,070 energy stuff. We have enough coal, if we just use that to 1024 00:57:11,070 --> 00:57:14,970 power the country, which would include everything for the next 1025 00:57:14,970 --> 00:57:17,820 350 years. 1026 00:57:17,820 --> 00:57:21,000 And there's a lot of clean coal technology now that is, is 1027 00:57:21,030 --> 00:57:24,780 really, really good. And it has a very high carbon credit 1028 00:57:24,780 --> 00:57:29,760 rating. But it seems like McCain took McCain took another 1029 00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:35,130 donation from the Nuclear Association. My goodness, yeah, 1030 00:57:35,130 --> 00:57:38,130 he was rolling out plant after plants. Yeah, that's pretty. I 1031 00:57:38,130 --> 00:57:39,360 was like, wow, we're sitting 1032 00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:43,530 on so much coal. You know, we can make electric cars into that 1033 00:57:43,530 --> 00:57:47,910 whole thing that we had actually created 150 years. How much 1034 00:57:47,910 --> 00:57:48,900 longer do you want? 1035 00:57:48,989 --> 00:57:51,989 And it could create jobs. And I'm sorry, what? It could create 1036 00:57:51,989 --> 00:57:57,599 jobs? Yeah, it would. It could be huge. So you were harping 1037 00:57:57,599 --> 00:58:00,029 because we did talk right after the right after the debate. We 1038 00:58:00,029 --> 00:58:03,059 had a quick chat. And you were harping about the handshake 1039 00:58:03,059 --> 00:58:07,349 thing. Where Michelle Obama didn't shake anyone's hand and 1040 00:58:07,349 --> 00:58:10,439 John McCain tap. Oh, yeah. But you know, Michelle, and I got a 1041 00:58:10,439 --> 00:58:14,219 blog that well, maybe we don't want to Michelle Obama was on 1042 00:58:14,219 --> 00:58:18,089 Jon Stewart show. And by the way, outstanding performance, 1043 00:58:18,269 --> 00:58:22,259 she did a great job. And she said no, no, that was read was 1044 00:58:22,259 --> 00:58:24,869 really overblown. She's and it's actually she was she did a whole 1045 00:58:24,869 --> 00:58:27,599 junket, she was on Larry King, and she's hitting all the all 1046 00:58:27,599 --> 00:58:32,459 the all the shows that matter. And she said, you know, we had 1047 00:58:32,459 --> 00:58:35,069 already greeted each other backstage and we knew we'd 1048 00:58:35,069 --> 00:58:39,629 already exchanged our pleasantries. So, you know, with 1049 00:58:39,629 --> 00:58:42,659 that context is like, okay, you know, they probably weren't 1050 00:58:42,659 --> 00:58:46,109 aware of the top shot that the camera was, although stupid if 1051 00:58:46,109 --> 00:58:49,649 they aren't, but they weren't thinking about it. And so, you 1052 00:58:49,649 --> 00:58:51,839 know, I think that was just the incorrect perception. 1053 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:57,750 Okay, I'll take your word for it. I'm not gonna I makes it 1054 00:58:57,750 --> 00:58:58,110 easy. I 1055 00:58:58,110 --> 00:59:02,760 gotta tell you, I like her. She is she's a little powerhouse, 1056 00:59:02,790 --> 00:59:07,380 but not little actually. She could probably sit on me. Huge. 1057 00:59:07,410 --> 00:59:10,440 She's huge. She's she's bigger than, than Obama. 1058 00:59:12,390 --> 00:59:14,490 Oh, she's twice his size. Oh, she's gonna be she must have 1059 00:59:14,490 --> 00:59:15,900 weighed twice as much as Obama knows 1060 00:59:15,930 --> 00:59:17,850 nobody. She's taller. And he's and he's not. 1061 00:59:20,100 --> 00:59:21,840 No, he's like, six one. Yeah. 1062 00:59:21,900 --> 00:59:24,600 Oh, she's she's taller. like, Whoa, she's 1063 00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:29,340 a basketball. She's like a big girl. So I thought this was a 1064 00:59:29,340 --> 00:59:32,820 funny line from McCain. I'm sorry, I missed that. 1065 00:59:32,850 --> 00:59:34,980 Oh, can I just say one more thing about about sending me a 1066 00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:39,090 message or thing about Michelle? Because Jon Stewart, I love 1067 00:59:39,090 --> 00:59:41,730 this. He brought it up. He said, you know, what was that thing 1068 00:59:41,730 --> 00:59:44,550 with all those kids and the, you know, the of course that's the 1069 00:59:44,550 --> 00:59:48,210 video we referred to a couple of times done by Hollywood insiders 1070 00:59:48,210 --> 00:59:50,880 with us hypnotised kids who are saying, you know, Obama's here 1071 00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:53,550 to save the world, whatever the hell they were singing. And her 1072 00:59:53,550 --> 00:59:55,830 response was quite interesting. I'm sure you can find it 1073 00:59:55,830 --> 00:59:59,160 somewhere on the YouTube or Hulu or whatever. She said, Oh, yeah, 1074 00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:02,430 no, we shut that down. I'm really quick. I was like, whoa. 1075 01:00:05,910 --> 01:00:09,000 Cut. Well, they should they have a clue. Yeah, these Hollywood 1076 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,420 guys are the Boneheads. Yeah, indeed. Okay. So they think 1077 01:00:12,420 --> 01:00:18,690 they're doing somebody a favour when they're screwing him. So 1078 01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:24,420 here's the little McCain line. Everything I learned was from a 1079 01:00:24,420 --> 01:00:27,600 chief petty officer. Oh, yeah. Right. That that was 1080 01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:28,080 interesting. 1081 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:34,380 And then what Obama say he had he had a good line. He was what 1082 01:00:34,380 --> 01:00:37,350 do you not know that you still have to learn? Or? And he said, 1083 01:00:37,350 --> 01:00:39,570 well, right up there as Michelle, she knows everything. 1084 01:00:39,570 --> 01:00:41,010 I mean, wow, that was so good. 1085 01:00:45,270 --> 01:00:48,150 Well, I you know, I get, unfortunately believe that Obama 1086 01:00:48,150 --> 01:00:51,900 won that debate. Oh, totally. Here's another thing I didn't 1087 01:00:51,900 --> 01:00:56,550 like McCain doing McCain constantly saying, my friends in 1088 01:00:56,550 --> 01:01:00,600 that kind of, kind of patronising manner. And then he 1089 01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:04,950 also kept throwing in that old sales trick, which doesn't even 1090 01:01:04,950 --> 01:01:07,560 work anymore. And it sounds terrible. Like, for example, I'm 1091 01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:12,900 talking to you, Adam. I'd be saying So Adam. Adam. Yeah, that 1092 01:01:12,900 --> 01:01:14,970 kind of thing. He kept doing that with Tom broke. I said, 1093 01:01:14,970 --> 01:01:19,860 Well, Tom, Tom, blah, blah, blah, blah, hey, we know who he 1094 01:01:19,860 --> 01:01:22,830 is. Okay. I mean, are you forgetting yourself? I mean, I 1095 01:01:22,830 --> 01:01:25,350 just find it extremely annoying. I hear people doing it all the 1096 01:01:25,350 --> 01:01:28,110 time. It's a sales trick. But it's an old fashioned one from 1097 01:01:28,110 --> 01:01:32,010 the 50s or something that nobody likes? Well, John, what do you 1098 01:01:32,010 --> 01:01:37,380 think about this, John? I think, John, I know my name. You're so 1099 01:01:37,380 --> 01:01:37,920 right. 1100 01:01:38,730 --> 01:01:41,400 You're so right. Meanwhile, his face has fallen off. 1101 01:01:44,580 --> 01:01:45,360 Okay, 1102 01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:48,240 we got a little extra delay on Skype tonight, by the way. 1103 01:01:49,469 --> 01:01:52,649 Yeah, I figured that out. Which makes this show sound crappy for 1104 01:01:52,649 --> 01:01:55,949 people out there that don't realise it. You know, sometimes 1105 01:01:55,949 --> 01:01:59,279 the timing between the two of us in terms of a reaction is 1106 01:01:59,279 --> 01:02:03,239 because the Skype itself is like, you know, not working 1107 01:02:03,239 --> 01:02:06,899 right. not cooperating. But he also had this hair. He had a 1108 01:02:06,899 --> 01:02:10,409 hair transplant joke that fell pretty flat. And then he kind of 1109 01:02:10,409 --> 01:02:12,539 went and went dead. And then he says, well, I might need one 1110 01:02:12,539 --> 01:02:15,509 myself. And it was like, I guess a slam against Biden or 1111 01:02:15,509 --> 01:02:19,979 something? Because I think, you know, the, it was actually not 1112 01:02:19,979 --> 01:02:23,999 Sarah Palin. But it was Tina Fey. You know, I think that 1113 01:02:23,999 --> 01:02:26,279 these these characters have started getting mixed up in the 1114 01:02:26,279 --> 01:02:31,439 public's minds. Were Tina Fey on her fake debate with Joe Biden 1115 01:02:31,439 --> 01:02:35,189 character on Saturday Night Live, calls him out on his hair 1116 01:02:35,189 --> 01:02:35,999 plugs. 1117 01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:40,020 I'm telling you, man, these guys are so tired. They don't know 1118 01:02:40,020 --> 01:02:42,330 what they're saying anymore. That's what I mean. And by the 1119 01:02:42,330 --> 01:02:45,480 way, fire the writer, John, for this, this episode of our 1120 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:48,000 reality show known as the presidential debates, fire the 1121 01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:49,140 writers they sucked. 1122 01:02:50,610 --> 01:02:56,010 Yeah, definitely. Where's Karl Rove when you need him? Yeah, I 1123 01:02:56,010 --> 01:02:56,940 don't think they're using him. 1124 01:02:57,030 --> 01:03:01,470 No, I don't know if they've kind of be using him and probably No, 1125 01:03:02,670 --> 01:03:05,790 I don't think so. They're not now they're doing all the 1126 01:03:05,790 --> 01:03:08,730 commercials that they're really laid in really hard and heavy 1127 01:03:08,730 --> 01:03:10,710 with the commercials. You know, this whole thing. 1128 01:03:10,950 --> 01:03:14,970 Done Right. No finesse, no finesse? No, Rove is a master of 1129 01:03:14,970 --> 01:03:15,570 finesse. 1130 01:03:16,620 --> 01:03:17,610 Do you think they fired him? 1131 01:03:19,290 --> 01:03:21,480 No, they never hired him. That's the problem. 1132 01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:25,140 Well, they did some things, right. They got a lot of virals. 1133 01:03:25,140 --> 01:03:28,110 They know that they're doing really well with that. But 1134 01:03:28,230 --> 01:03:31,440 something changed. I mean, it was it was bad. 1135 01:03:34,530 --> 01:03:38,070 Well, it's just I mean, it's I think, from the beginning, when 1136 01:03:38,070 --> 01:03:41,520 McCain went into the tank, and then the party, because I had 1137 01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:43,710 all these, you know, I had this prediction about who was going 1138 01:03:43,710 --> 01:03:46,470 to be the nominee no matter what, because I think that was 1139 01:03:46,470 --> 01:03:49,230 promised to him. And I think the party, you know, pushed 1140 01:03:49,230 --> 01:03:52,350 everybody aside in one way, shape or form. And they they 1141 01:03:52,350 --> 01:03:55,440 left Huckabee and the race to make sure Romney couldn't get 1142 01:03:55,440 --> 01:03:59,640 in. That was the reason for that strategy. And so it was a 1143 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,700 Huckabee ploy. And so then the next thing, you know, you know, 1144 01:04:02,700 --> 01:04:05,460 McCain sneaks back into the thing, and they got he gets what 1145 01:04:05,460 --> 01:04:08,880 he was promised probably in 2001. They screwed him. And I 1146 01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:11,490 think he was probably Karl Rove, who did it back then, which 1147 01:04:11,490 --> 01:04:14,730 means now I think McCain is not the type of guy who says, Wow, 1148 01:04:14,730 --> 01:04:17,940 you screwed me good. I'd like you to work for me. I think he's 1149 01:04:17,940 --> 01:04:20,490 more of the guy says, You screwed me get out of my face. 1150 01:04:20,550 --> 01:04:20,790 Yeah, I 1151 01:04:20,790 --> 01:04:23,130 hope people understand. So I don't think I hope people 1152 01:04:23,130 --> 01:04:25,410 understand that this is exactly how it works, you know, and 1153 01:04:25,410 --> 01:04:29,130 there is all this huge politicking going on behind the 1154 01:04:29,130 --> 01:04:32,280 scenes and you know, people are promised something and I heard 1155 01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:36,600 that Biden, he didn't even accept Obama's. You know, when 1156 01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:39,780 they were scoping them out. He said, at first I said, No, I 1157 01:04:39,780 --> 01:04:42,360 don't want to do that. And then he has all these. He has like a 1158 01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:46,260 whole list like like a rider. You know, no, no red m&ms and 1159 01:04:46,260 --> 01:04:48,990 all this stuff. Biden's got a whole deal going on. 1160 01:04:52,230 --> 01:04:54,990 The weird thing about Biden that was pointed out to me, you know, 1161 01:04:54,990 --> 01:05:00,330 and Andrew Horowitz and I do a occasional podcast. So on the 1162 01:05:00,330 --> 01:05:03,870 mark on the stock market, yes, good and what you like, yeah, I 1163 01:05:03,870 --> 01:05:04,590 seem to enjoy. 1164 01:05:04,620 --> 01:05:06,750 Yeah, I heard the the last one you guys did, too. 1165 01:05:08,099 --> 01:05:12,689 He brought up the fact that Biden's net worth is $250,000. 1166 01:05:12,689 --> 01:05:13,169 Yeah. 1167 01:05:14,100 --> 01:05:14,880 That's like nothing. 1168 01:05:16,410 --> 01:05:19,920 How does that work? The guy's been in the Senate for 30 years. 1169 01:05:20,130 --> 01:05:24,510 If he just bought like a plot of land in Georgetown, you know, 1170 01:05:24,510 --> 01:05:27,360 when he first got there for whatever you'd pay then which 1171 01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:30,960 would be next to nothing and be multimillionaire. He'd be a 1172 01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:33,210 multimillionaire. So how does he end up with a net worth of 1173 01:05:33,210 --> 01:05:37,380 $250,000? Unless he's a complete financial incompetent? 1174 01:05:38,370 --> 01:05:40,170 Did he vote for the bailout package? 1175 01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:43,050 It says, Wait a minute slips. So let's go back over this. This is 1176 01:05:43,050 --> 01:05:48,720 a steady job that pays six figures that has lots of perks, 1177 01:05:48,900 --> 01:05:53,340 free medical, all kinds of other things you get out of it. Not to 1178 01:05:53,340 --> 01:05:57,150 mention probably a few stock tips that are worthwhile. And he 1179 01:05:57,150 --> 01:05:59,490 has a net worth of $250,000. 1180 01:05:59,700 --> 01:06:03,060 Where does this information come from? Is this like a big thing 1181 01:06:03,150 --> 01:06:05,760 everyone's talking about? Now, that people 1182 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:09,270 in the financial community, I guess, but nobody's brought it 1183 01:06:09,270 --> 01:06:09,690 up? 1184 01:06:10,620 --> 01:06:18,090 Christmas? First, I heard of it. Let me see. Hold on a second. 1185 01:06:18,150 --> 01:06:21,030 That's interesting. Well, I mean, I heard it on the way 1186 01:06:21,030 --> 01:06:23,580 Andrew said it when I was listening to the show. Yeah, he 1187 01:06:23,580 --> 01:06:25,770 said it. So matter of fact, they were like, Oh, does it does 1188 01:06:25,770 --> 01:06:28,020 everybody. Everybody know that? 1189 01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:31,260 The lifestyles of the presidential candidates have 1190 01:06:31,260 --> 01:06:35,040 become the topic du jour. This presidential cycle. Senator 1191 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:37,680 McCain is still catching fire from the defenders of the little 1192 01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:41,670 people for saying he didn't know how to shut up. And Republicans 1193 01:06:41,670 --> 01:06:43,110 continue to paint Obama, 1194 01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:46,650 this guy's an idiot. As an elitist just get to the bid 1195 01:06:46,650 --> 01:06:47,670 already fit into all 1196 01:06:47,670 --> 01:06:51,270 this competitive formatting. Well, last year, the Washington 1197 01:06:51,270 --> 01:06:54,000 Post did a review of all the assets of all the presidential 1198 01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:57,210 candidates, including their spouses, Senator Biden's 1199 01:06:57,210 --> 01:07:00,270 estimated net worth total value after all the mortgages, 1200 01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:04,620 honoured $250,000, this guy has spent his whole life in public 1201 01:07:04,620 --> 01:07:07,830 service and says he took a second mortgage on his house to 1202 01:07:07,830 --> 01:07:11,070 pay for one of his kids education, as a big countered 1203 01:07:11,070 --> 01:07:14,760 any elitist charges against the New Democratic ticket. The man 1204 01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:19,080 from scratch is 100 to 150,000. Net Worth today's number. 1205 01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:21,840 That's even that's even worse. Wait, wait, wait, wait, that was 1206 01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:22,560 it. Wait, that was 1207 01:07:22,980 --> 01:07:26,460 he paints it says he paints this as positive. 1208 01:07:26,489 --> 01:07:29,459 Yeah, because he's one of these irregular Joe Say it Ain't So 1209 01:07:29,459 --> 01:07:30,869 Joe. He's Joe six, 1210 01:07:30,870 --> 01:07:36,630 regular bonehead. I mean, there are guys working at the steel 1211 01:07:36,630 --> 01:07:39,060 mill with a better network than that it 1212 01:07:39,060 --> 01:07:44,160 was Ms. NBC NBC. That's why it's good. Yeah, it's good. It's 1213 01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:46,620 good. He's regular guy. He's not really evil, 1214 01:07:46,620 --> 01:07:50,880 that they would paint that as a positive thing. Yeah. 30 years, 1215 01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:55,320 and then all he can accumulate is 150,000. Even though Anders 1216 01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:58,590 thinks is to a quarter of a million, but $150,000 net worth 1217 01:07:58,770 --> 01:08:04,350 being in the Senate for decades, decades. And you know, having if 1218 01:08:04,350 --> 01:08:04,590 you have 1219 01:08:05,790 --> 01:08:09,180 money, if you have expenses, if you have a car loan, you're even 1220 01:08:09,210 --> 01:08:10,710 you're already halfway there. 1221 01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:17,040 Unbelievable. And the fact that they paint this as a positive 1222 01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:21,540 thing is even more astonishing to me. It's like this like it's 1223 01:08:21,540 --> 01:08:25,080 a they should be concerned. They shouldn't be just kind of 1224 01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:27,630 shocked and dismayed. They shouldn't say, Well, this is 1225 01:08:27,630 --> 01:08:29,700 great. The guy's broke. He's a bomb. Yeah, but 1226 01:08:30,540 --> 01:08:34,230 this is the thing that I keep telling you. It's become such an 1227 01:08:34,230 --> 01:08:38,310 maniacs in this country. We're so all over this Obama Biden, 1228 01:08:38,310 --> 01:08:40,620 and we love it. And it's so beautiful whenever these guys do 1229 01:08:40,620 --> 01:08:45,210 some stupid, idiotic or treasonous. It's like oh, yeah, 1230 01:08:45,210 --> 01:08:50,130 but he's the hope he's bringing change it he's lying. Yeah, but 1231 01:08:50,130 --> 01:08:51,900 there's hope that he's not lying. 1232 01:08:52,260 --> 01:09:01,500 Oh, there's hope that he's not lying. Yeah. what else what else 1233 01:09:01,500 --> 01:09:05,850 we got to be to, to depress the public. I'm actually not 1234 01:09:05,850 --> 01:09:08,850 depressed. I'm just gonna depress you. This is actually 1235 01:09:08,850 --> 01:09:11,850 kind of entertaining. I just I just thought market is kind of 1236 01:09:11,850 --> 01:09:13,050 depressing, I think but 1237 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:16,650 wow, this is really short. I don't give a shit about the 1238 01:09:16,650 --> 01:09:17,640 stock market. 1239 01:09:17,850 --> 01:09:25,740 I'm short. Yeah. I am. I don't care. I mean, as far as I'm 1240 01:09:25,740 --> 01:09:29,970 concerned, yeah, go down more, I don't care. But, you know, 1241 01:09:29,970 --> 01:09:32,490 there's a lot of these really interesting again, I don't want 1242 01:09:32,490 --> 01:09:37,470 to keep cross promoting, but that's what I do. It pays off 1243 01:09:37,470 --> 01:09:41,280 you know that. But Andrew and I are gonna go over and go over 1244 01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:44,340 some of these financial vehicles. But one of the things 1245 01:09:44,340 --> 01:09:48,330 that people should know about their 401 K's is that with a 1246 01:09:48,330 --> 01:09:51,330 401k, or any of these, you know, IRAs, SEP IRAs, whatever you 1247 01:09:51,330 --> 01:09:55,680 want to call them, whatever you have. They are mines in that 1248 01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:58,080 tank because I haven't really been paying much attention to 1249 01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:02,010 this. And you can see by away. There's a couple of things. One 1250 01:10:02,310 --> 01:10:04,830 is the collapse of the stock market blew out most people's 1251 01:10:04,830 --> 01:10:08,730 401 K's, which, which is the message that people need to know 1252 01:10:08,730 --> 01:10:13,320 about privatising Social Security? Yeah. You privatise 1253 01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:16,050 Social Security. And you end up with a bunch of people that 1254 01:10:16,050 --> 01:10:18,630 don't know anything about anything, investing in stocks, 1255 01:10:19,410 --> 01:10:24,030 losing all their money all losing all their money, it's a 1256 01:10:24,030 --> 01:10:28,590 bad idea. And I really distressed about the Republicans 1257 01:10:28,590 --> 01:10:31,980 and their promotion of it, because it's extremely 1258 01:10:31,980 --> 01:10:38,370 irresponsible. Now, the people should know this too. And one of 1259 01:10:38,370 --> 01:10:40,950 the problems a lot of people are going to run into they have a 1260 01:10:40,950 --> 01:10:44,400 really strong foil when carrier or a good you know, one of these 1261 01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:47,370 self in doing these investment programmes where you do your own 1262 01:10:47,370 --> 01:10:52,260 investing is you can't short you can't short the market in the 1263 01:10:52,260 --> 01:10:55,440 investment portfolio you did, it's just illegal, totally, I 1264 01:10:55,440 --> 01:10:59,670 totally buy stock. You can buy stock, you can buy, you know 1265 01:10:59,670 --> 01:11:03,660 property. Now, there's different ways you can buy land and put it 1266 01:11:03,660 --> 01:11:08,760 in there. But there are investment vehicles that are 1267 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:15,300 actually shorts. And they are there are they're called ETFs, 1268 01:11:15,330 --> 01:11:20,820 the exchange traded funds, and an exchange exchange traded 1269 01:11:20,820 --> 01:11:26,970 fund, you buy it, but the fund itself is shorting a segment of 1270 01:11:26,970 --> 01:11:30,150 the market that you think is going to go down. And so you can 1271 01:11:30,150 --> 01:11:34,950 actually short the market within your 401 K by buying exchange 1272 01:11:34,950 --> 01:11:40,830 traded funds that are shorts. It's a great trick people need 1273 01:11:40,830 --> 01:11:44,220 to know about this because not now because I think the markets 1274 01:11:45,810 --> 01:11:49,440 and not ever because it's all going away. Forget about it. 1275 01:11:49,470 --> 01:11:52,350 Because when the market skyrockets, which will happen 1276 01:11:52,350 --> 01:11:55,800 after one of these two guys gets elected, which it will, it'll go 1277 01:11:55,800 --> 01:11:58,860 up again and go up and up and up. And then it's going to go 1278 01:11:58,860 --> 01:12:02,370 down again because it goes up and it goes down. It goes up it 1279 01:12:02,370 --> 01:12:05,700 goes down. Hello. But anyway, when it's going down, there's no 1280 01:12:05,700 --> 01:12:08,760 reason to be long and a bunch of stocks. Look into some of these 1281 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:13,980 short sighted, you know, ETFs. And just short that way it's a 1282 01:12:13,980 --> 01:12:18,090 chicken. It's kind of a trick that people should know about. 1283 01:12:18,990 --> 01:12:21,420 Because a lot of them by the way, these ETFs a bunch of 1284 01:12:21,420 --> 01:12:23,580 companies put them together power shares is one of the 1285 01:12:23,580 --> 01:12:24,090 better ones. 1286 01:12:24,780 --> 01:12:27,240 I thought it was kind of cute. Because I remember them hanging 1287 01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:30,990 this up in in New York near Times Square, the national debt 1288 01:12:30,990 --> 01:12:33,960 clock clock ran out of digits. That was kind of cute. Yeah. 1289 01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:38,730 Who would have thought that we ran out on the blog? Yeah, no, 1290 01:12:38,730 --> 01:12:43,050 I think everybody did it. It was a typical human interest piece 1291 01:12:43,050 --> 01:12:46,200 that throw away throw away at the end of the at the end of the 1292 01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:48,780 six o'clock news. You know, to fill up time. 1293 01:12:49,110 --> 01:12:53,040 I think every man and woman and child has something like that we 1294 01:12:53,040 --> 01:12:57,480 all owe $80,000 to the national debt 1295 01:12:57,479 --> 01:12:58,799 something outrageous. 1296 01:13:03,120 --> 01:13:05,820 Anyway, but Oh, I 1297 01:13:05,820 --> 01:13:08,580 did just want to say one. Yeah, go ahead. 1298 01:13:10,140 --> 01:13:12,630 No, I'm gonna say how do you you've been out here for longer 1299 01:13:12,630 --> 01:13:16,050 than usual. Are you getting sick of it? Now? How's the weather by 1300 01:13:16,050 --> 01:13:17,940 the way? You got great weather great weather. 1301 01:13:17,970 --> 01:13:20,910 Yeah, weather has been fantastic. Yeah, yeah, I'm 1302 01:13:20,910 --> 01:13:24,420 homesick. I told you that I'm homesick I want to go home. But 1303 01:13:24,480 --> 01:13:27,150 it's been really good because we basically started up you know, 1304 01:13:27,150 --> 01:13:32,760 the whole production studio we've got the hosted channels 1305 01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:36,900 running. Yeah, it's been good you know, this is something that 1306 01:13:36,930 --> 01:13:39,750 we need now was the time to do it. And I want to really make 1307 01:13:39,750 --> 01:13:43,350 sure I was here personally and all these kids man that the 1308 01:13:43,350 --> 01:13:47,610 office they figured out they got it so they're rolling. So my job 1309 01:13:47,610 --> 01:13:48,150 is done. 1310 01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:53,400 So you can take off I hope soon. 1311 01:13:55,410 --> 01:14:00,990 Thanks. Actually, some midweek I'm going back I got a family 1312 01:14:00,990 --> 01:14:05,520 thing. And then I'm coming back on like the Monday or Tuesday 1313 01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:08,880 after that, because we got a board meeting and don't want to 1314 01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:11,400 miss that. So then I'll be out 1315 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:17,610 Yeah, no, I'm sorry to interrupt because again, the timings wrong 1316 01:14:17,610 --> 01:14:21,750 on this connection. But I just back to the Obama the McCain 1317 01:14:21,750 --> 01:14:23,880 thing. I just wanted to say this. Did you notice they're 1318 01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:25,170 both left handed? 1319 01:14:25,980 --> 01:14:27,390 Yes, I did notice that. 1320 01:14:28,770 --> 01:14:30,510 Isn't that true? What 1321 01:14:30,510 --> 01:14:33,420 are the chances of that? What are the actual statistical 1322 01:14:33,420 --> 01:14:37,380 chances of two presidential candidates running against each 1323 01:14:37,380 --> 01:14:42,120 other who are both left handed? It's just another piece of the 1324 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:44,550 puzzle that proves my theory that they are working for the 1325 01:14:44,550 --> 01:14:45,390 same party. 1326 01:14:47,340 --> 01:14:52,650 Left handed to the left torium Anyway, okay, this back to your 1327 01:14:52,650 --> 01:14:55,320 rep. Sorry, I interrupted you because unfortunately I always 1328 01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:59,250 interrupt you and because of this lousy, which is weird since 1329 01:14:59,250 --> 01:15:01,050 we have a better connect When you're in England, 1330 01:15:01,710 --> 01:15:04,620 I don't know what it is man, you know that I can call in again, 1331 01:15:04,620 --> 01:15:08,460 but you know, why bother? Yeah, it kind of where let me see what 1332 01:15:08,460 --> 01:15:12,330 how much what time are we out here that we can pretty much 1333 01:15:12,330 --> 01:15:13,800 wrap it up anytime anyway. 1334 01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:17,550 I know you were saying you're we were you're enjoying it you're 1335 01:15:17,550 --> 01:15:19,500 going to take off for a while you're gonna come back right? 1336 01:15:19,530 --> 01:15:21,180 Yeah. So because of the board meeting 1337 01:15:21,210 --> 01:15:25,230 Yeah. So I would have stayed for another because then at the end 1338 01:15:25,230 --> 01:15:29,490 of the month, the 27th I think I'm speaking or I'm on a panel 1339 01:15:29,490 --> 01:15:35,790 at Digital Hollywood in Los Angeles. And I you know, now 1340 01:15:35,790 --> 01:15:40,260 that we have the new guy coming in Jeff carp, you know, there's 1341 01:15:40,260 --> 01:15:43,260 some time to do that kind of stuff, which is also important. 1342 01:15:44,580 --> 01:15:48,720 Not that I like it, though, honestly. In fact, I kind of was 1343 01:15:48,990 --> 01:15:50,910 flying back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. 1344 01:15:50,940 --> 01:15:54,480 No, that's not it's the London I don't like doing conferences and 1345 01:15:54,480 --> 01:15:57,360 panels and speeches. I just don't dig it. 1346 01:16:00,030 --> 01:16:03,300 Now some people don't like it. So I think the thing that would 1347 01:16:03,300 --> 01:16:06,120 be annoying is a flying bat in London to Los Angeles is a 1348 01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:07,380 miserable flight. 1349 01:16:07,410 --> 01:16:10,470 Now it's a great flight because I catch up on all my movies. 1350 01:16:10,710 --> 01:16:13,260 Virgin is really good. They refresh their movies every 1351 01:16:13,260 --> 01:16:17,400 single month. And and they're pretty current. So they got they 1352 01:16:17,400 --> 01:16:19,680 got some good studio deals that's really part part of their 1353 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:22,380 offering and I'm very appreciative of it so yeah, I 1354 01:16:22,380 --> 01:16:26,010 watch three movies you know, read a book and and then I'm 1355 01:16:26,010 --> 01:16:29,250 done. And then I'm asleep. I'll eat and then I've landed and 1356 01:16:29,250 --> 01:16:32,250 then I just keep going so I don't need any turnaround time I 1357 01:16:32,250 --> 01:16:33,750 just march right on through 1358 01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:39,270 Yeah, well, I actually catch up on my I may have a trip to 1359 01:16:39,300 --> 01:16:44,100 Portugal coming up and I catch up on a lot of movie watching 1360 01:16:44,100 --> 01:16:46,770 myself and I usually bring if I bring enough reading material I 1361 01:16:46,770 --> 01:16:48,870 catch up a bunch of stuff I would have never read the 1362 01:16:48,870 --> 01:16:52,800 economist is like a magazine I should be reading religiously 1363 01:16:53,100 --> 01:16:56,130 from cover to cover but I don't have time and I when I'm on a 1364 01:16:56,130 --> 01:16:58,260 plane or something I have a bunch of images read them all 1365 01:16:58,380 --> 01:17:00,390 and even when they're like a month or two old it's the 1366 01:17:00,390 --> 01:17:02,370 articles are just fascinating, 1367 01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:05,130 although the economist because you know we had one of our 1368 01:17:05,130 --> 01:17:07,650 earlier shows you told me I should be reading this and I do 1369 01:17:07,650 --> 01:17:10,410 pick it up every flight as well along with you I'll pick up 1370 01:17:10,410 --> 01:17:13,020 Newsweek and Time you depending on what's on the cover. So that 1371 01:17:13,020 --> 01:17:15,780 was a really bullshit flimsy that their shadow of their 1372 01:17:15,780 --> 01:17:19,080 former selves, as far as I'm concerned with the economist, 1373 01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:23,310 economist, now the no Newsweek and Time, but the economy, 1374 01:17:23,340 --> 01:17:26,970 they're dead. They're, they're like comic books. That's how 1375 01:17:26,970 --> 01:17:31,800 thin they are. And it's totally nothing. Yeah. But then the 1376 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:35,760 economist, I gotta tell you this they do have a lot of fluff in 1377 01:17:35,760 --> 01:17:38,640 there. You got to really get find the good articles. And you 1378 01:17:38,640 --> 01:17:41,790 know, really the main, the main feature because it fills up with 1379 01:17:41,790 --> 01:17:42,660 a lot of junk. 1380 01:17:45,150 --> 01:17:47,730 I think they're good when they get to when they do Africa 1381 01:17:47,730 --> 01:17:52,650 stuff. Yeah. And I think they're really good with Asia. I think 1382 01:17:52,650 --> 01:17:55,500 with Europe and the United States, I think I think that's 1383 01:17:55,500 --> 01:17:57,210 removed most of them because they're just they don't know 1384 01:17:57,210 --> 01:17:59,370 what's going on. It's like everybody else and I think they 1385 01:17:59,370 --> 01:18:01,170 just founder 1386 01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:07,050 I'm just looking through the notes here that Bill Moyers 1387 01:18:07,050 --> 01:18:11,310 interview George Soros was on I have a note here that says he 1388 01:18:11,310 --> 01:18:14,460 was talking about a better world order so that they've changed 1389 01:18:14,460 --> 01:18:18,180 the name a little bit now. As long as no longer New World 1390 01:18:18,180 --> 01:18:19,710 Order it's a better world order 1391 01:18:23,760 --> 01:18:25,410 second marketing speak. 1392 01:18:26,010 --> 01:18:29,880 Well, yeah, yeah. People will love it and better 1393 01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:32,850 world order. What the hell is that supposed to mean? 1394 01:18:33,180 --> 01:18:36,030 That means one bank one government what's the end repeat 1395 01:18:36,030 --> 01:18:38,280 after me? I am free. I am free. 1396 01:18:38,280 --> 01:18:42,960 I write run by those guys. Yeah. Run by those guys. Yep. 1397 01:18:43,080 --> 01:18:44,220 Those guys indeed. 1398 01:18:47,850 --> 01:18:49,110 Yeah, way. Well, 1399 01:18:49,140 --> 01:18:51,750 not just tell me this does bother you. Right. I mean, 1400 01:18:51,990 --> 01:18:56,340 you're a you were born in 19. Right after the Second World War 1401 01:18:56,400 --> 01:19:00,060 I got doesn't matter. Now. Come on. I just want ask your 1402 01:19:00,060 --> 01:19:01,980 question for a second. So 1403 01:19:02,010 --> 01:19:04,950 you like born after the Second World War? Yes. Yeah. 1404 01:19:05,160 --> 01:19:10,410 So you like I really have not ever been in a war situation 1405 01:19:10,410 --> 01:19:12,870 because of course, you know, the wars that that although 1406 01:19:12,870 --> 01:19:15,840 continuously ongoing, they really haven't. Well, I guess 1407 01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:19,920 you witnessed Vietnam a lot closer. But the times that we're 1408 01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:22,530 in now is this like the weirdest time you've ever witnessed 1409 01:19:22,530 --> 01:19:25,170 throughout history? Has it gone? Has it gotten progressively 1410 01:19:25,170 --> 01:19:27,900 worse? And the reason why I asked John, that happened we 1411 01:19:27,900 --> 01:19:32,190 looking at John Lennon and interview was like 30 years ago, 1412 01:19:32,370 --> 01:19:34,890 when he did that when he was with Yoko, and did that give 1413 01:19:34,890 --> 01:19:38,760 peace a chance. And he did the Amsterdam Hilton for a week in 1414 01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:41,850 bed and all that stuff. But this interview, he's like, you know, 1415 01:19:42,870 --> 01:19:46,920 our governments are run by maniacs, and they're the total 1416 01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:49,800 lunatics and he's basically, you know, saying the same stuff I'm 1417 01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:53,850 saying only 35 years ago, and I'm just wondering, has it 1418 01:19:53,850 --> 01:20:00,960 gotten worse in your opinion and your experience? No, It's always 1419 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:03,570 been this bad or what is it? 1420 01:20:03,570 --> 01:20:05,820 Yeah, yeah, no, it's pretty pretty much like this. Well, 1421 01:20:05,820 --> 01:20:07,710 it's it. The problem is that you have the, you know, you have 1422 01:20:07,710 --> 01:20:11,910 this, like, you know, if you get me going on this again, my cycle 1423 01:20:11,910 --> 01:20:15,480 stuff, the problem you run into, and I'm old enough to have gone 1424 01:20:15,480 --> 01:20:17,910 through one of the cycles, even though it was, it was a mild 1425 01:20:17,910 --> 01:20:21,900 cycle, which was a depression that began in 1969, or does the 1426 01:20:21,900 --> 01:20:26,220 stock market crash in 1969, in a 10 year period of weirdness you 1427 01:20:26,220 --> 01:20:28,380 couldn't get it didn't even work for about a year and a half 1428 01:20:28,380 --> 01:20:31,560 after I graduated from college. And you know, and so throughout 1429 01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:36,810 the 70s, you end up with a, you know, a stag stagflation. And 1430 01:20:36,810 --> 01:20:39,840 then he had these credit, you know, price controls, and then 1431 01:20:39,840 --> 01:20:42,720 there was a gold pack decided to cut us off from oil. So there 1432 01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:45,270 were lines in the oil. I mean, it's actually worse in the 70s 1433 01:20:45,270 --> 01:20:48,000 than it is now from my perspective. And then, you know, 1434 01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:50,070 then he ended up with Jimmy Carter coming in, he was a 1435 01:20:50,070 --> 01:20:53,610 complete bonehead. And when, of course, he was run by 1436 01:20:53,610 --> 01:20:57,480 Brzezinski, your buddy, and you know, the same people that are 1437 01:20:57,480 --> 01:21:00,570 going to be running Obama's operation. So we're going to 1438 01:21:00,570 --> 01:21:04,740 have Carter again, as far as I can tell, if Obama gets in and 1439 01:21:04,860 --> 01:21:08,760 get new interest rates, we're like, 22%, if you wanted to get 1440 01:21:08,760 --> 01:21:11,280 a home loan, you have to pay 22% interest rates and was 1441 01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:16,200 ridiculous. And so it was a complete disaster. And I think 1442 01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:20,280 it was much worse during the 70s than it is now, this thing is 1443 01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:24,300 pretty isolated as financial institutions, it sounds bad, but 1444 01:21:24,510 --> 01:21:27,480 like a lot of people say, Hey, I don't have any money in the 1445 01:21:27,480 --> 01:21:29,730 stock market. What difference does it make, to me, the public 1446 01:21:29,730 --> 01:21:33,480 is not in the market, their pension funds are, but they can 1447 01:21:33,480 --> 01:21:36,660 throw that, you know, bricks at the pension fund managers, as 1448 01:21:36,660 --> 01:21:40,560 opposed to the market itself for that problem. So no, this is I 1449 01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:44,010 think, mild. I think the big one is yet to come. I think a real 1450 01:21:44,250 --> 01:21:49,020 Whopper is around the corner. Not tomorrow, not you know, I'm 1451 01:21:49,020 --> 01:21:52,740 thinking in the next year or perhaps a year after. But this 1452 01:21:52,740 --> 01:21:55,800 is This is bull, this is not a big deal of everyone. 1453 01:21:56,010 --> 01:21:57,780 So what you're what you're saying though, this is 1454 01:21:57,780 --> 01:21:59,730 interesting, because I'm actually I learned the whole 1455 01:21:59,730 --> 01:22:02,940 word stagflation from you. I think you told you mentioned 1456 01:22:02,940 --> 01:22:08,040 this word to me before it was ever even mentioned on CNBC. And 1457 01:22:08,400 --> 01:22:12,420 even then, you could see puzzled looks what is stagflation? But 1458 01:22:12,450 --> 01:22:15,900 this this pumping of money, and of course, it's being printed 1459 01:22:15,900 --> 01:22:18,480 since we don't actually have it. Now they might try and borrow 1460 01:22:18,480 --> 01:22:20,610 some from somebody, but it's doubtful so they're just going 1461 01:22:20,610 --> 01:22:23,940 to print it doesn't that just by definition, means that we're 1462 01:22:23,940 --> 01:22:28,500 going to get inflation perhaps the hyperinflation you've spoken 1463 01:22:28,500 --> 01:22:33,180 about previously was will just devalue our money and luckily, 1464 01:22:33,180 --> 01:22:36,420 it's it's worldwide now of course, because it's all been 1465 01:22:36,420 --> 01:22:39,300 harmonised and synchronised and they're controlling the money 1466 01:22:39,300 --> 01:22:43,920 supply manually and in unison. But won't we get when we get 1467 01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:47,520 like super stagflation. Now, I'm not going to happen tomorrow. 1468 01:22:47,520 --> 01:22:49,470 But won't that happen in the next two years? 1469 01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:53,550 Well, then I get the sense, because every time one of these 1470 01:22:53,550 --> 01:22:57,120 economic downturns they're legitimate one takes place, it 1471 01:22:57,120 --> 01:22:59,970 always has a different form. And I'm a little concerned about the 1472 01:22:59,970 --> 01:23:01,920 situation we're having now because it's possible, we could 1473 01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:05,190 fall into the abyss, like some people like to think that we're 1474 01:23:05,190 --> 01:23:08,850 doing. And then we just kind of go into a depression without a 1475 01:23:08,850 --> 01:23:11,880 boom, who really be annoying, because the real problem that 1476 01:23:11,880 --> 01:23:15,900 I'm looking at in terms of the the nature of things is that we 1477 01:23:15,900 --> 01:23:20,400 had a crash, and kind of a natural crash that took place 1478 01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:24,870 after the.com. Boom. And it was exacerbated by the 911. 1479 01:23:24,870 --> 01:23:28,860 situation, which was, which resulted in almost a decade. 1480 01:23:30,450 --> 01:23:33,810 Naomi Klein's Shock Doctrine theory is, you know, they keep 1481 01:23:33,810 --> 01:23:36,930 hitting you with shocks. So at first we had, as you say, we had 1482 01:23:36,990 --> 01:23:40,770 the.com. And then we had the real estate, and you know, 1483 01:23:40,770 --> 01:23:44,100 what's next infrastructure, that's what's gonna happen next, 1484 01:23:44,100 --> 01:23:48,030 it's all going to be privatisation of all the roads, 1485 01:23:48,030 --> 01:23:51,960 the tunnels, the whatever, we're gonna get a huge, huge bubble. 1486 01:23:52,170 --> 01:23:54,330 And that's, and that's going to be the one and that may be two 1487 01:23:54,330 --> 01:23:57,240 years, that may be your cause. We need jobs. So let's do 1488 01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:59,640 infrastructure. All the infrastructure projects are out 1489 01:23:59,640 --> 01:24:04,050 of money, they only live like $80 billion per state, the 1490 01:24:04,050 --> 01:24:05,100 states are out of mind. 1491 01:24:07,530 --> 01:24:10,080 You know, anyway, there's a lot of possible scenarios, the thing 1492 01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:13,590 about big crashes and big downturns, they're always 1493 01:24:13,590 --> 01:24:16,050 different. And so you don't know if it's gonna be stagflation. I 1494 01:24:16,050 --> 01:24:18,330 mean, the one thing we've never had in this country, which is, 1495 01:24:19,290 --> 01:24:22,980 you know, just ripe, because it will fix so many things, and at 1496 01:24:22,980 --> 01:24:25,440 the same time, cause a lot of problems which is 1497 01:24:25,470 --> 01:24:28,230 hyperinflation, which I talked about before, because then you 1498 01:24:28,230 --> 01:24:30,990 can pay off. So yeah, let's give everybody sits on it. It's give 1499 01:24:30,990 --> 01:24:34,800 him a trillion dollars, you know, and we'll just do they owe 1500 01:24:34,800 --> 01:24:38,220 it to us, you know, and then, or we'll just take, we'll borrow a 1501 01:24:38,250 --> 01:24:41,070 trillion from the Chinese and then we'll give it to the Wall 1502 01:24:41,070 --> 01:24:44,460 Street guys, and then they owe us and we owe them and meanwhile 1503 01:24:44,460 --> 01:24:47,190 the dollar goes into hyperinflation and that trillion 1504 01:24:47,190 --> 01:24:49,980 dollars I'm holding, by the way I have here I'm gonna blog it 1505 01:24:49,980 --> 01:24:54,480 probably this next week, that $10 million to assess $10 1506 01:24:54,480 --> 01:24:57,480 million bill from 1507 01:24:58,830 --> 01:25:02,550 Zimbabwe. Oh, you Got one. Good. And you know, they just they 1508 01:25:02,550 --> 01:25:05,880 just somebody sent me new ones today or yesterday they just 1509 01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:08,940 made new they had to do it again. The zeros wouldn't fit. 1510 01:25:09,210 --> 01:25:09,570 Yeah. 1511 01:25:10,560 --> 01:25:13,500 Well the problem is, is that there's a really funny Bill 1512 01:25:13,500 --> 01:25:15,600 you'll get a kick out of seeing it as it doesn't have. I'm 1513 01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:19,710 looking for a mugabi some mugabi money with his picture on it. I 1514 01:25:19,710 --> 01:25:22,860 still haven't gotten there. But this I mentioned the guy, I have 1515 01:25:22,860 --> 01:25:26,070 his name, I'll plug him that just sent me the bill. But 1516 01:25:26,070 --> 01:25:28,860 anyway says $10 million. And I've never seen money like this. 1517 01:25:28,860 --> 01:25:32,370 This is the funniest thing. It's $10 million. And it's 1518 01:25:32,729 --> 01:25:34,679 real note with a mimeograph. 1519 01:25:36,150 --> 01:25:38,610 No, no, it's a really well printed note. It's not cheap 1520 01:25:38,610 --> 01:25:42,090 crap. Like, you know, the Confederate money wasn't during 1521 01:25:42,090 --> 01:25:46,170 the debt era. It's really a nice little note, except it's got an 1522 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:48,240 expiration date printed on it. 1523 01:25:49,470 --> 01:25:52,470 I'm sorry, your money is past due the expiration date. 1524 01:25:54,210 --> 01:25:55,080 is expired. 1525 01:25:55,110 --> 01:25:58,440 No longer valid after all, that's great. Best or best 1526 01:25:58,440 --> 01:26:01,140 before? November 2. 1527 01:26:02,280 --> 01:26:06,810 You better spend his money, dude, because it's. So it's 1528 01:26:06,810 --> 01:26:07,920 like, Oh, brother. 1529 01:26:08,490 --> 01:26:11,520 That could happen. There's a lot of I've noticed that our money 1530 01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:15,150 has changed a lot. Yeah. Yesterday, I got some new 1531 01:26:15,150 --> 01:26:21,330 quarters as in change. And it now has Alaska. On the back. Do 1532 01:26:21,330 --> 01:26:22,230 you have any of these? 1533 01:26:22,890 --> 01:26:26,790 Oh, my daughter's collected all of them except Hawaii. And by 1534 01:26:26,790 --> 01:26:27,720 the way, one thing. 1535 01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:29,880 Let me just say one thing because she might be able to 1536 01:26:29,880 --> 01:26:36,000 help us in this. I had to I had an older quarter. And it really 1537 01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:40,020 feels like that it's a different weight or a different alloy. It 1538 01:26:40,020 --> 01:26:44,250 feels different. It doesn't feel as solid as the older quarter 1539 01:26:44,250 --> 01:26:45,510 has something changed? 1540 01:26:46,080 --> 01:26:50,340 Oh yeah, they've changed the composition a on and off for 1541 01:26:50,820 --> 01:26:53,100 forever. I mean, it used to even be made with some silver 1542 01:26:53,100 --> 01:26:53,700 content. 1543 01:26:53,969 --> 01:26:59,879 It feels it feels cheap Jack. It is cheap, but the older quarters 1544 01:26:59,879 --> 01:27:04,919 felt kind of good now it feels like cheap ass money. Like guilt 1545 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:09,660 it's a little cheaper than it was you get used to it. So as 1546 01:27:09,660 --> 01:27:12,630 long as it triggers the parking metre it's all you care about. 1547 01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:16,110 But ya know every back of every one with everything you have 1548 01:27:16,110 --> 01:27:19,770 every state's got their own, you know quarter and this part of an 1549 01:27:19,770 --> 01:27:26,010 ID and one way of like keeping the money the money kind of 1550 01:27:26,010 --> 01:27:29,760 stable. If you turn yourself into kind of one of these what 1551 01:27:29,760 --> 01:27:32,670 was the San Martin or some of these some of these countries 1552 01:27:32,670 --> 01:27:35,310 that Monaco some of these countries that produce a lot of 1553 01:27:35,850 --> 01:27:40,680 commemorative stamps and and money commemorative money that 1554 01:27:40,680 --> 01:27:43,950 people collect, because everyone has the collecting bugs so you 1555 01:27:43,950 --> 01:27:47,580 save so instead of putting the money back in circulation, you 1556 01:27:47,610 --> 01:27:50,460 kind of you know, squirrel it away in some sort of a 1557 01:27:50,460 --> 01:27:52,620 collection that you think is going to become valuable 1558 01:27:52,620 --> 01:27:55,020 sometimes is a pretty great idea. 1559 01:27:55,620 --> 01:27:59,340 I have heard buying up gold coins which have an actual 1560 01:27:59,340 --> 01:28:02,100 amount of gold in them and then you know, overpaying or 1561 01:28:02,100 --> 01:28:04,860 collectibles or whatever that's that's ridiculous. You did the 1562 01:28:04,860 --> 01:28:07,500 right thing. Yeah, the real actual gold. 1563 01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:13,560 Yeah. Yeah. Because it's always gonna, you know, this does know 1564 01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:16,380 was just a piece of gold. I mean, it's real gold and you 1565 01:28:16,410 --> 01:28:19,290 just got a value. That's the market value. And as you just 1566 01:28:19,500 --> 01:28:22,920 buy it and sell it. Yeah, there's coins or reg crapshoot. 1567 01:28:24,840 --> 01:28:31,590 Yeah. So I think that's about it. I think we're done. 1568 01:28:31,770 --> 01:28:34,410 Yeah, I think so. We've covered most of the bases. 1569 01:28:36,540 --> 01:28:39,510 Yeah, I think we've ran the show up to almost two hours. 1570 01:28:39,570 --> 01:28:44,670 Now. What are we at? Now? Our word is 90 minutes, hour and a 1571 01:28:44,670 --> 01:28:48,090 half? Well, you know, it took us longer because we had to 1572 01:28:48,090 --> 01:28:50,610 reconnect a couple times and do all that shit. So that's where 1573 01:28:50,610 --> 01:28:53,970 you lost the time but thank God the the audience didn't get 1574 01:28:53,970 --> 01:29:02,040 sucked into that. All right, my friends.
