Speaker 1: International Correspondence with Ends and Eye Insurance, Peace of Mind

Speaker 1: for New Zealand Business.

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,719
Speaker 2: Jan Missions and US Correspondent with US Now Hi Dan, Hi, Heather.

4
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:11,559
Speaker 2: I mean, he was pretty fiery in that speech as

5
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:12,719
Speaker 2: he quelled any concerns.

6
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 3: No. I mean, it's interesting because normally when you get

7
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,959
Speaker 3: leaders like this together, we'd be talking about what they're

8
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,599
Speaker 3: talking about. But in this case, well, I mean it

9
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 3: would have been Ukraine and Russia obviously, but this week,

10
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 3: I think it's more watching President buying to see if

11
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 3: he's capable to run the country for another four years,

12
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 3: and that's what everyone's talking about over here. I think

13
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 3: he was speaking a little better today. He had a

14
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,200
Speaker 3: little more energy, it felt like from watching him. But remember,

15
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 3: I mean this speech was read from a teleprompter, it

16
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,480
Speaker 3: was from prepared remarks. It wasn't off the cuff, and

17
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 3: you don't take questions in the situation. So we'll see

18
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,480
Speaker 3: how this works out later in the week. I think,

19
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 3: you know, by the weekend early next week, we're gonna

20
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 3: have a better idea if he's got the support that

21
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 3: he needs to stay in this race, not just from

22
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 3: world leaders but here at home.

23
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, the thing about about his performance is

24
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: that it is so hits and miss, right, and we

25
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: have seen him go from being really really lackluster to

26
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: being really energetic, and so having an energetic performance once

27
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: off is not really convincing, is it.

28
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 3: No, No, you're right, it's hit and miss. I mean

29
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 3: the night after the debate he was pretty good. When

30
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 3: he was out on the campaign trail. A couple of

31
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,199
Speaker 3: days later he was eh. Today he looked he sounded

32
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 3: real good too, And I think they're really working on

33
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 3: him to, you know, to stay the course and every

34
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,839
Speaker 3: single day and I mean every single day counts between

35
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 3: now and the next week or two, I think, fair.

36
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 2: Enough, how's it going for Alec Baldwin.

37
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 3: Well, I mean they've got a jury that's been selected,

38
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 3: so opening the arguments are scheduled for tomorrow. It looks like,

39
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 3: I mean, if things go as planned, this is going

40
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 3: to be a fairly quick case. I mean, closing arguments

41
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: are expected next week sometime I think around the nineteenth.

42
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,919
Speaker 3: And he did score a little bit of a victory,

43
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 3: I guess when the judge ruled that prosecutors can't introduce

44
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,559
Speaker 3: evidence of his status as a producer on this movie,

45
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 3: which he was as well as you know, starring and

46
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 3: then that you know, it was kind of interesting too

47
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 3: because his attorney took a minute or two to remind

48
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 3: the jurors today that bald when it was or is

49
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 3: quote a real person and then asked everyone if they

50
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 3: had seen Baldwin in a movie or a comedy show

51
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 3: that they didn't like, and would they hold that against him,

52
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 3: because some jurors obviously would. He doesn't have the best

53
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 3: reputation in the public.

54
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, how are they having a film festival in the prison?

55
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 3: I love this? And to give you a little background,

56
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 3: San Quentin State Prison is a maximum security correction facility

57
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 3: for men. It's located here in northern California. It's near

58
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 3: San Francisco. You've probably seen it a million times and

59
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 3: didn't even realize it on TV shows and movies. And

60
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 3: so they're holding the first ever film festival inside a prison.

61
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 3: They just named the jury today, which includes actors like

62
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 3: Jeffrey Wright who played oh Felix Leider in the Bond movies,

63
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 3: and Mary Louise Parker and a lot of other actors

64
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 3: and actresses too. This is going to take place on

65
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 3: the tenth and eleventh inside the prison. They're going to

66
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 3: have short form films and pitches from people who are

67
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 3: currently locked up, who were formally locked up. They're going

68
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 3: to have a separate jury that's inside people that are

69
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 3: currently incarcerated as well as the actors. And you know,

70
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 3: this is the first kind of a film festival that's

71
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 3: ever been held here. But they already do a lot

72
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,399
Speaker 3: of media works inside this place too. I mean, they've

73
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: got a podcast that they produce that's listened to all

74
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 3: over the world called Ear, Hustle and Uncuffed, and they

75
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 3: also have a little sort of in house bulletin too,

76
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,079
Speaker 3: So I guess it's just giving the people in there

77
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 3: sort of another resource when they get out, if they

78
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 3: get out.

79
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 2: Interesting. All right, Dan, thank you very much, appreciate it.
