It's maybe it's because you have 45 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: seen the future and have seen the crushing defeat that 46 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: it is coming for bigger Story of the week, one 47 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 1: contender only this week, Adam. The sharp, very sharp collision 48 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: between Australian politics, our upcoming election, US politics, big farmer, 49 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: big tech, tariffs, trade wars and something that we hold 50 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: very dear. Every story I've had this week, Come on, 51 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: I'm narrowing it down to the collision, the actual moment 52 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: of which it all came together. Yes, both go on 53 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: all maybe none, I don't know. It's something also that 54 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: really kind of headlines this story, something that we hold 55 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: very dear as Australians, the pharmaceutical benefits scheme. The PBS 56 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: so backstories this US drug giants for a little while now, 57 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 1: it seems have been lobbying Donald Trump, US President, to 58 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: put a tariff on Australian medical experts, claiming that our PBS, 59 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: this thing that we love, is an quote egregious and 60 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: discriminatory program. 61 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 2: What would sorry say that again? Egregious and please don't 62 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 2: make me say it. 63 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: I was practicing on the way in here going I 64 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: found a word I can't say, discriminatory, discriminatory, discriminatory. Which 65 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: one is it? Tory or tree? 66 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: True? 67 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 3: Well, either one works. 68 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: But just not what I'm time yeah or forehead you 69 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: know anyway, it is an egregious and program that discriminates 70 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: against American companies. It is because our government, the Australian government, 71 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: subsidizes medications that have been approved by a committee. We 72 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: all know how this works, right, taking the cost of 73 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: why are you looking at me like that? 74 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 2: I'd like to hear you explain how the PBS work. 75 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: It takes the cost of potentially life saving medications down 76 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: from the tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of dollars 77 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: even to an affordable figure thirty one dollars and sixty cents. 78 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: And that's going to get even cheaper, even cheaper to 79 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: the federal election, with the Prime Minister Anthony Albanezi announcing 80 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: a plan to cut the cost the out of pocket 81 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: cost to Australians to just twenty five dollars. Peter Dutton, 82 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: the Opposition leader, came out in support of it immediately. 83 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: So it is one of those policies that really it's 84 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 1: going to happen, right, it's going to happen. 85 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: I reckon. This story is about as boring as the 86 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 2: PBS policy. You know what, Sean, come on, pick it up, 87 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 2: let's go, let's go, let's go. 88 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: Okay, that was all context, that was background, But that 89 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: matters to people. It matters, it really really does. 90 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 2: I agree with that. 91 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: However, these discussions and these policies and all of this 92 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: talk about how good our PBS is that is a 93 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 1: red rag to a bull for the US pharmaceutical giants, 94 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: the drug giants. The prime minister, the Australian Prime minister 95 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 1: that is, has said that the PBS will not be 96 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: part of any future tariff negotiations. But Donald Trump is 97 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: being lobbied, and he is not just being lobbied. He 98 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: is being lobbied big time, big time by big Farmer 99 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: to introduce tariffs on Australia and at the same time, 100 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 1: at the same time, right, we've got Elon Musk and 101 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: we've got the bosses of the big tech companies lobbying 102 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: Donald Trump to punish Australia. So I can't deal with 103 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: this when the two of you are staring at me 104 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: like that, it's the pressure because you know what it is. 105 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: It is Sean looking at me and I'm just waiting 106 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: for him to just pick up something that I said. 107 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 2: No, I think this is a big story, right, so 108 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 2: you know, if I don't win, I don't win. That's 109 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: fair enough. 110 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: The issue with Adam staring at me is whenever he's 111 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: staring at you, he's not writing anything down, which means 112 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: he's zoning out. Yeah, he's gone somewhere else altogether singing 113 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: Ryanstone Cowboy in his head. Anyway, So we've got we've 114 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: got the pharmaceutical giants lobbying Donald Trump. We have got 115 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: now the tech giants Elon Musk as well. So the 116 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: bosses have kind of X obviously got Mark Zuckerberg. You've 117 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: probably got the boss of Google and Alphabet the parent company, 118 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: all kind of lobbying for the same thing, basically to 119 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 1: punish Australia for schemes like a news bargaining news media 120 00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: bargaining incentive. 121 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 2: Yes, can I ask a question, and this is not 122 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 2: downplaying the story very important. Do you think that what 123 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 2: Donald Trump has done in the US has made every 124 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 2: country like the EU must be going berserk? So there's 125 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 2: the anti trust, well so called anti trust stuff against 126 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 2: the big tech companies. Every single big tech company will 127 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 2: be in Donald trumpsy you're saying, you know, that's Europeans. 128 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: It's quite phenomenal what's going on. 129 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: And I reckon Australia is at real risk here because 130 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: everyone's at real risk, especially with Australia in terms of 131 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 1: this of the what was originally the news media bargaining 132 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: code and now the new incentive system that's being talked 133 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: about here. It is everything that Donald Trump hates, right. 134 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: It is a foreign government interfering with business and interfering 135 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: with American business. And it's just like it feels as 136 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: though it has kind of warning all over it. So 137 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: we've got the pharmaceutical giants lobbying, we've got the big 138 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,799 Speaker 1: tech giants lobbying. It feels as though Australia is heading 139 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: for a massive, massive tariff showdown with the US. Getting 140 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: the PBS involved is something that is going to get 141 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: a heck of a lot of Australians off side this story. 142 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: Has it all gone on for too long? No, it's 143 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: just because it is such a comprehensive, big in punch 144 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: of stories. It's not a bunch of stories. It's one story, 145 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: maybe two stories, possibly a third, but really it is 146 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: the biggest story of the week, Adam. And can you 147 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: please write down more next time? 148 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 2: Yes? 149 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: Can you just hold up just for the camera and 150 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: we might have to make a video out of it, 151 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: just to see, Oh you actually have written stuff? Yeah, okay, illegibly. Yeah, 152 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: that's just I can decide, Adams shorthand. 153 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 2: Let's get off that story, like I'm just going to 154 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 2: have a short story everything. Michael said, great story really 155 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: is interesting. You know, for months we've been talking about it. 156 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: It's really been interesting it months and months happened this 157 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 2: week this week, it's really what. We got an unemployment 158 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: figure out this week four point one percent, fifty three 159 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 2: thousand job losses, very unusual. We didn't expect that. It 160 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 2: actually focused us all back on what's happening in the 161 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 2: real economy to real people in terms of mortgage rates. 162 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: And we have been watching Donald Trump from Afar and 163 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 2: it's getting closer and not downplaying that story. But this week, 164 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 2: this week, we actually got a sense that interest rates 165 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 2: probably won't fall until July. Now why do we get 166 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: that Because we had an unemployment figure which was actually 167 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 2: or a labor force figure which is actually pretty weak. 168 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 2: The unemployment figure is still pretty good, but the labor force. 169 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 2: And no one came out and said, oh, the reserve 170 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: exit of cut interest rates. In fact, they don't. And 171 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 2: markets have got cutting interest rates by July a out 172 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 2: of seventy five percent in May. But market economists are 173 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 2: not at all sure of that, and so the market 174 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 2: is reacting to that. So the mark's reacting to two 175 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 2: things at the moment Trump broadly but interest rates and 176 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 2: we've sort of taken our eye off the ball on that, 177 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 2: and this week we're able to refocus on the biggest 178 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 2: story of the week, short, concise, relevant other to you 179 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 2: are jump Ski. 180 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: Today is the first day that I feel that I 181 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: may have done myself a disservice by being too verbose. 182 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 3: Talking on today. 183 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, the first time. Alan, We've been doing the show 184 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: for five years. 185 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 4: There we go, but Michael went, he does, So this 186 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 4: one tears at me. It's not far apart that the 187 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 4: numbers on unemployment four point one, right, but people withdrawing 188 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 4: from the workforce, that's significant, and obviously there's retirees, new 189 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 4: people coming in, but just how much people want to participate, 190 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 4: I think that's really interesting. Our productivity levels are shot, 191 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 4: so it's a massive story the unemployment figures. But I 192 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 4: think this week just how much Donald Trump is affecting 193 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 4: Australian politics was made really pertinent again and alban easy 194 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 4: and unilaterally across both sides of the House. They're saying, 195 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 4: we're not going to accept this all right, so stay 196 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 4: out of our pharmaceutical benefits schame. So I think that's 197 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 4: actually a massive story it will galvanized Australia. 198 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 2: I'd like to complain, but I probably complain if I won. 199 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, the mood that you're in at the moment, I 200 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: feel like it was a universal complaint, just discriminatory, just forget. 201 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: I was like, I'm just going to nail at this 202 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: time ago. We can edit that out. It's definitely going 203 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: to make it in one nil. 204 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 2: One nil surprise. That's the most remarkable story. 205 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: Would you like to go first on this one? 206 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, Wise Teak Global. Oh, 207 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 2: Richard White. 208 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: I know that this is a fantastic story, and I'm like, 209 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 1: that's gonna be hard to be, hard to be I 210 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: will do it though. 211 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 2: So what we got this week that's different. We actually 212 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 2: got the internal inquiry done by a couple of law 213 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 2: firms into Richard White's behavior at wis Tech Global. Now, 214 00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 2: last year we spent many, many minutes, probably oursscussing Richard 215 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 2: Weisse Tech's potential or alleged behavior and these relationships with 216 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 2: people in the business and outside the board itself, asked 217 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 2: for an independent inquiry into it. What they found out, 218 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: We really got the partial findings of the board basically 219 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: said White had made incomplete disclosures concerning the nature and 220 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 2: duration of his relationship with an employee. It said White 221 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 2: was not fully transparent and candid with investigation. He was 222 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 2: misleading about personal matters. Concerning the ending of the relationship, 223 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 2: went und to say, mister White entered into a commercial 224 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 2: relationship where there were underscores conflicts between the interests of 225 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 2: Global and the personal interests of mister White. 226 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 1: Assuming off the back of that he's gone right, you. 227 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 2: Would think so, you would think so. But money talks, 228 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 2: and at the end of the day, he has built 229 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 2: Richard White has built an incredible company. Had thirty six 230 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 2: percent of weisstek started in the nineteen ninety four, up 231 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 2: six hundred percent over five years. That wins. But what 232 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 2: is remarkable is that that is accepted. Now. Later in 233 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 2: the week some of the super funds came out and said, oh, 234 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 2: we're going to have that look at this. Assic is 235 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 2: going to have a look at that. Really, the guys 236 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,199 Speaker 2: lie to the board, I mean three directors, the independent 237 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 2: directors stepped down as a result, and the best we 238 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 2: can do is, look, yeah, shouldn't have done it, but yeah, 239 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 2: that's how it guys. I mean, pretty appalling and remarkably 240 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 2: appalling for such a large listed ASEX company. 241 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: Michael, that's a great story. Why are you being nice 242 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: to me because we need to talk about gold, Sean, 243 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: That's why it's being nice to me, because I feel 244 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: bad for you. Your story was fantastic and on any 245 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: other week would have won. But the gold, gold, gold, gold, 246 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: the humble gold. No one ever talks about it. It's 247 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: finally getting a bit of attention, make its way through history, 248 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: escaping attention. This week was a It was a remarkable 249 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: week in the history of gold. It really was. It 250 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: passed three thousand US dollars an ounce and in doing say. 251 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 2: That right with a bit of sparkle. We need the metodrama, Michael, 252 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 2: you haven't brought it today. 253 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: No, but what you'd see what I'm doing right now 254 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: is I started and then I dropped back, and then 255 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: I was going to build and build and build to 256 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: a big. 257 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 2: The problem with Michael slow build is it's a very 258 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 2: slow build and takes forever. 259 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,959 Speaker 1: It doesn't it's actually going to be really short. Okay, 260 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: you have made it so much longer. 261 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:39,679 Speaker 2: Just that's the case that it was going to be 262 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 2: really short. 263 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: It done, passing three thousand US dollars an ounce, are 264 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: you timing me? 265 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 3: Adam? 266 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 1: In doing so? It reflects just how volatile international markets are, 267 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: and just how nervous investors are rushing to the safe 268 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 1: hay and of gold. I just want to put into 269 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: like I could just leave it there, right and on 270 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: its own, that story would win. We all accept that, 271 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: am I? Right? 272 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, no, good, excellent, giving up, Adams going, you 273 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 2: have to work hard, am I? 274 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 3: All? 275 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 2: Right? 276 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: Consider then, when gold has passed other milestones in the past, right, 277 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you realize how significant the 278 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: financial situation that we are in at the moment is. 279 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: Right when it hit the one thousand dollar mark for 280 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: the first time, it was in March two thousand and eight, 281 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: right in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. Right, 282 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: investors wanted stability. We know that, right, GFC one thousand dollars. 283 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: August of twenty twenty, chaos, confusion, pandemic, it hit two 284 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: thousand US dollars and now in the midst of tariffs 285 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: from the White House. 286 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 2: Peter Allen today, trade war. 287 00:14:54,480 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: Trade war was a bit of barrinal ongoing conflict in Ukraine, 288 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: renewed hostilities in the Middle East, we have now hit 289 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: the three thousand US dollar mark. Three milestones consider those one, two, three, 290 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: GFC pandemic Trump era, right, and suddenly you don't look 291 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: at it in isolation. This is not a three thousand 292 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: US dollar mark milestone in isolation. You look at it 293 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: in the context of the two previous milestones, and you 294 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: realize just how significant and remarkable this is. And and 295 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: it may not be stopping there. The relentless upwards momentum 296 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: of gold, that poor, understated metal is the most remarkable 297 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: story of the week by far. 298 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: Right. 299 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: Adam, I've made an inappropriate amount of eye contact with 300 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: Sean there at the end of the staring. It's because 301 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: you weren't looking at me. 302 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 2: Stare at Sean. 303 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 3: Wonderful flourish, Yeah, wonderful flourish. Sean wins. 304 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 4: And the reason for this, right is, gold is a 305 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 4: story of incrementalism, and all the points you made, like yes, 306 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 4: it's been creeping up, up a minute and up. I 307 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 4: think it's amazing that it is, because, as John you 308 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 4: pointed out, you don't know anything anything from gold. It 309 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 4: doesn't pay dividends, it's just something to hold, and so 310 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 4: people's value of it is intriguing to me, but not 311 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 4: just the internal inquiry at Wistead Global. For all of 312 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 4: the worth of an internal inquiry, I think they're so 313 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 4: limited typically in scope and value. But when you've got 314 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 4: what it's found and it still says nothing to see here, 315 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 4: there's probably two points. One is the report answer. The 316 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 4: second is what are you going to do about it 317 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 4: in terms of succession planning? Like does this company actually 318 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 4: have a future without Richard White? Is it separable from that? 319 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 4: And are they going to build a future into it. 320 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 4: I think that's a really interesting question. Remarkable, excellent. 321 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 2: What I don't like about today's show m or a 322 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 2: few things, First and foremost Michael not bringing it like 323 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 2: he's just there's no drama. The second thing, which I 324 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 2: like probably less less or whatever it is. We're all 325 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 2: in agreement so far, like all three of us have 326 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 2: agreed the best of friction remarkable story. No, No, I do. 327 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 1: Not agree here we gold No. No, I just I 328 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: feel like I just need to make that final point 329 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: right the historical context. But don't you think that is 330 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: staggering that we've had these three enormous milestones in the 331 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 1: past just. 332 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 2: Because you've done a little bit of research in some 333 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 2: numbers and you didn't get an awarded reward. 334 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: The fact is, but doesn't that doesn't that say something 335 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 1: to you that we've got the two of the most 336 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: chaotic periods ever in terms of the GFC and the pandemic, 337 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: two milestones and when then we've hit the third equivalent 338 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: milestone this week, elevating what is currently happening in financial 339 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,360 Speaker 1: markets to that same level as the pandemic and the GFC. 340 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: I think that is staggering, and that, you know what, 341 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 1: I don't accept the judgment. 342 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 2: Excellent, Let's go, Lee, Let's go to a break.

You're pull in, you do them 393 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: at the same time, and they're going to leave at 394 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: the same time, and the EV has four hundred kilometers 395 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 1: of range. That is the holy grail. That is something 396 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 1: else that is a game changer. Sorry, I kind. 397 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,640 Speaker 2: Of worked over there. 398 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: The fact is right that this is a massive and 399 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 1: there's a lot of Sean went into this in the 400 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: Fear and Greed newsletter through the week, So if you 401 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: haven't subscribed to that already, head along to Fearangreed dot 402 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: com dot au popular email addressing I won't rehash everything 403 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 1: that Sean said when he pointed out how much of 404 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: a game changer this was. 405 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 2: I can't agree. It's a totally sorry, I don't disagree. 406 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 2: It is a very very big, big story, the second 407 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 2: game changing story of so on. 408 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: It Also it is another big win for BYD as well, 409 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 1: like you look at the impact overall on the industry 410 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 1: and EVAs and the future of transportation, but even just 411 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 1: at a company level, it is a massive win for BYD. 412 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 1: Puts even more pressure on Tesla, elon Musks Tesla because 413 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: Tesla can charge two hundred and seventy five kilometers in 414 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes, and we're talking here about four hundred kilometers 415 00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: in five minutes. By D is already the best selling 416 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: event well and truly beating Tesla. It is hard to 417 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 1: see that changing anytime soon. With this kind of game changing, 418 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,159 Speaker 1: staggering technology coming out of China this week, it is 419 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:19,479 Speaker 1: un believable and believable, unable to be believed. Sean or Beaten? 420 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:20,479 Speaker 2: That is that? 421 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 1: Yes, or Beaten sounds like an early judgment? 422 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 2: Do I sound like an early judgment? Doesn't it? Shame 423 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 2: you haven't heard me? 424 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: Spit spit. 425 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 2: My story earlier on I suggested that we would be 426 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 2: talking about what a real judge is like. 427 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: This is perfect. 428 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 3: I'm going to be taking a lot of notes. Then 429 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 3: perfect timing. 430 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:47,880 Speaker 1: Adam delivers an early accidental judgment, now segue straight into 431 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: Sean's story about what a real judge looks like. This 432 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: could not have been scripted any better. 433 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 2: The game changer this week is the Chief Justice of 434 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 2: the US John Roberts, issuing a very very very very 435 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 2: rare public review to Donald Trump, the President, over the 436 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 2: president's threat to impeach federal judges. Now that followed Donald 437 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 2: Trump specifically attacking one judge on his truth social platform 438 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 2: in a response to a ruling that had attempted to 439 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 2: block deportations of alleged to Venezuelan gang members. Now what 440 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 2: that ruling In brief, the Trump administration had used a 441 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 2: wartime law only even been used three times in the 442 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 2: eighteen hundreds during some war then or won World War two, 443 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 2: arguing that the US was either at war with Venezuelan 444 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 2: gangs or being invaded by Venezuelan gangs, so therefore we 445 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 2: are allowed to get rid of deport Venezuelan gang members. 446 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 2: Went to the judge the judge said, well, hold on, 447 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 2: do we know that they're Venezuelan gang members? And they said, well, 448 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 2: they've got tatoos that look like members more or less broadly, 449 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 2: they look like this is an opinion show, they. 450 00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 3: Look like criminal. 451 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's kind of that gist. And so the 452 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 2: jar you said, no, no, no, no, turn those planes around. 453 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 2: You can't deport them, right, We actually need proof here 454 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 2: before we do that. Donald Trump did not like it. 455 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 2: He wrote, the judge, like many of the crooked judges 456 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 2: I'm forced to appear before, should be impeached. Impeached in caps, 457 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 2: of course. He went on to call the judge a 458 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 2: radical left lunatic, a troublemaker, and an agitator. Now I 459 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 2: think we've heard this before, but ba bye bye by 460 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 2: the game changer. But have we ever heard the Chief 461 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 2: Justice of the US John Roberts saying, mate, pull your 462 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 2: head in. Not quite like that. The most Australian judgment ever, right, 463 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 2: he said, And I quit John Roberts. For more than 464 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:42,199 Speaker 2: two centuries, it's been established that impeachment is not an 465 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 2: appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal 466 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 2: appellate review process exists for that purpose measured sensible, Donald Trump, 467 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 2: pull your head in a very big moment. What's going on? 468 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 2: I mean, the separation of powers authority in three branches 469 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,679 Speaker 2: Legislative basically, Congress makes the laws. Executive, which is a 470 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 2: president enforces the law's judicial which interprets the laws. What 471 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 2: the fear is is that Donald Trump is trampling on 472 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 2: the judicial part of it and not allowing it to 473 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 2: do its job. The fact that he intervened this week, 474 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 2: and there's lots of in so many cases at the 475 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 2: moment in terms of the executive rulings that just seemed 476 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 2: to be well allegedly are breaking the law. The fact 477 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 2: that he has told Donald Trump, hold on, mate, you're 478 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 2: just back off. Hold on mate, I don't think you 479 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 2: said that, I said, mister president. Yeah. The fact that 480 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 2: he said the president is being not correctly going about 481 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 2: the way if he doesn't agree with the judge's ruling, 482 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 2: I think is extremely significant because it is the number 483 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 2: one legal person in the US standing up for the 484 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 2: judicial system. Game changer and a conservative leaning and a 485 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 2: conservative leading totally judge. 486 00:25:56,200 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, thinking good shouldn't have added that, But I mean 487 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: it's a good point, isn't it. It's I mean, this 488 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: is a conservative Supreme Court and he's been there since 489 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: two thousand and five. 490 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was going to say decades. I don't quite remember. 491 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: But he is a conservative Chief Justice, so it has 492 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 1: even more weight. It is a game changer, one of 493 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 1: both of them. 494 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 3: We love each other. 495 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: It's sick enough. 496 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 3: I just I think it's a marvel that b yd 497 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 3: can charge in five minutes. So it's incredible. 498 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 2: They said in the press conference, it said what about 499 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 2: the batteries, will they survive it? And the other one 500 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 2: was a danger like fire and stuff like that. No, no, no, 501 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 2: that's I thought about that. 502 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: Just charge it outside. 503 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think it matters, because the point 504 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 2: is that will improve anyway. 505 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 3: I was in Regional Victoria this week and going to 506 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 3: you know, the stall Gift the race in Stare and 507 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 3: there was a yard with ten Tesla chargers and not 508 00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 3: not one car on them. 509 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 4: But I thought, it's great that you know they're there, 510 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 4: but we just don't have the adoption yet. Is that 511 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 4: tension between how many cars are there, how many charging 512 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 4: stations are there, their infrastructure. It is a game changer, 513 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 4: you know, having a five minute charge. I think that's awesome. 514 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 4: Sean has to wear out there. Yeah, Sean has to 515 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 4: win this category. The Chief Justice John Roberts. It's elegant, concise, 516 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 4: whack like stay in your lane, mister president. And I 517 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 4: thought highly appropriate and what a what a sort of 518 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 4: strong mind it is to take on Donald Trump. 519 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 3: He's not an easy customer. He's aggressive, he's. 520 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 1: Very you know that could be the understatement. 521 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's. 522 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 4: Certainly got a very very loud microphone. So you know 523 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 4: the fact that he's done this and stood his ground said, actually, 524 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 4: impeachment isn't a process here, only impeach judges. You have 525 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 4: an appeal. I thought it was great and hopefully we'll 526 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 4: see more people standing up to what is rational responses. 527 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 2: Checks and balances. Yeah, that's how democracy works. 528 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,400 Speaker 1: Two one, Shall we go from there? 529 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 2: Sure? 530 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 1: Would you like to go from talking about the Supreme 531 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,919 Speaker 1: Court of the US and checks and balances and everything? 532 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 1: Give us your favorite story? 533 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 2: What I actually thought?

You're not going to 549 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 2: keep that one? How about? How about how about the 550 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 2: one where the US government released tens of thousands of 551 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,479 Speaker 2: pages about the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy 552 00:28:53,840 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 2: and Julian just to find out Julian. Julian agreed, did it? Don't? 553 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 2: Don't give you the punchline after the story. I mean 554 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 2: we did the story. He sent me a jake, a 555 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 2: JFK conspiracy theorist, dies and arrives in heaven where God 556 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 2: is there to receive him. Welcome. God said, you're allowed 557 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 2: to ask me one question and I will answer you 558 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 2: honestly without hesitating.

There were no accomplices, 561 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 2: He acted alone. I won't actually write the last little bit, 562 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 2: but the point being like, however, that's an option. However, 563 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 2: my favorite story, which is sort of Michael because it 564 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 2: makes Michael giggle. And I don't know why it makes 565 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: Michael giggle this story, but I do like the story 566 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 2: about the Los Angeles County jury who awarded fifty million 567 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 2: dollars in damages to a poor feller as in male, oh, 568 00:29:54,200 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 2: you're cringing. The story a gentleman's name Michael Garcia. He 569 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 2: was scalded by hot tea from Starbucks, caused severe burns. 570 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 2: In fact, it actually caused disfigurement. Now he's essentially an 571 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 2: urban driver, third degree burns when the tea the top 572 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: of the tee, the lid wasn't on properly and was 573 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 2: passed through to him through a drive through and it 574 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 2: splashed on him. Third degree burns. He's got fifty million dollars. Now, 575 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 2: I suppose a point where your cringing and Michael is giggling, is, 576 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 2: in fact where the tea landed. I don't know specifically, 577 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 2: apart from the say his gentle regions, thank you, which 578 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 2: is what the judgment said.
