1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: It's the weekend Sterling back seven hundred WLW, guy who 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: knows from betting in sports for ESPN chalk. You may 3 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,039 Speaker 1: have even seen him all over TV the last couple 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: of days. I know I have David Purdham. Welcome back 5 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: to seven hundred WLW. 6 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 2: How are you man, I'm doing great, Thanks for having me. 7 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 1: You know, usually I'm here to talk about like odds 8 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,600 Speaker 1: for a World Series or a Super Bowl or maybe 9 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: some like Final Four action. But occasionally in the midst 10 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: of sports betting things come up. But a couple of 11 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 1: weeks ago was the NBA thing. We've talked about point 12 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: shaving and stuff like that too. The last couple of 13 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: days it's been in the NCAA basketball sort of realm, 14 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: if you will, Can you break down in short order 15 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 1: what exactly has transpired and where we are now sitting 16 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: in the midst of what continues to be I guess 17 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 1: an evolving story and court proceeding. 18 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:53,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely so. Yesterday federal authorities in the Eastern District 19 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 2: of Pennsylvania unsealed a seventy page indictment that outlined a 20 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: point shavings that had been going on for the previous 21 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 2: two seasons. Thirty twenty six people were indicted. Thirty nine 22 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,119 Speaker 2: was a thirty nine games, some of the twenty five 23 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 2: games something around there dozens of games. Seventeen college teams 24 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 2: had players on there that had been impacted. And this 25 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 2: thing went on for two years. It was a gambling 26 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 2: ring that has some crossover to the people that were 27 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 2: involved in the NBA betting scandals from earlier. This fall 28 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: their last ball, I should say, So, yeah, that's where 29 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 2: we're at right now. 30 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,279 Speaker 1: It's ugly, it really is so. David Purdam from ESPN 31 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: Chalk was sterling on the big one. So when you 32 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: think about the sheer number of colleges and universities playing 33 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: basketball competitively across the United States, I mean, how many 34 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: student athletes and how many schools are involved. To say 35 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: that twenty or twenty five particular games or teams and 36 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: twenty students seems really small. But when it comes to 37 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: the integrity of the game, it's a pretty big deal. 38 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is. 39 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 2: It is a big deal, and I certainly when I 40 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: put this out here, just I want people to realize that, yes, 41 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 2: we do not want any games fixed. However, there are 42 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,679 Speaker 2: six thousand men's college basketball games perst season roughly six 43 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: thousand a little bit over actually six thousand games, so 44 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: two years. This thing went on for two years, and 45 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: the FEDS found that they had manipulated or got kids 46 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 2: to compromise twenty nine of those games. So twenty nine 47 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: games and look at a twelve thousand. It's not a lot. 48 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 2: It's too many, right, it's too many. We don't want that. 49 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 2: But saying that we're going to completely eliminate and not 50 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 2: have game fixing, it just kind of flies in the 51 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 2: face of history because college basketball, you can go back 52 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 2: to the nineteen fifties, has always had an issue with 53 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 2: point shaving schemes, and in the nineties it's forged all 54 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: the way up into the mid two thousands, all the 55 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: way to the legalization of sports betting in twenty eighteen. 56 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 2: About every three to five years you would get a 57 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 2: point shape scale that would pop up. Now, this one 58 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 2: is bigger than all those probably put together. But I 59 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 2: just think that people should before they start going, oh, 60 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 2: everything is rigged, right, Well, no, not everything is rigged. 61 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: A small, very percentage of games college basketball games have 62 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: been proven to have been fixed, but it's not a 63 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 2: huge amount. 64 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: Talking to David Perdamy covers sports betting for ESPN Chalk 65 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: with Stirling on seven hundred WLW. So how did this 66 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: end up getting the attention of law enforcement? Because my 67 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: guess is all above board betting houses. I mean, they're 68 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: going to notice variances in the amount of money on 69 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: certain games or certain players. I mean, does this play 70 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: into the prop bet question that a lot of people 71 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: have talked about too, because I know Ohio has done 72 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: a band when it comes to the high school level 73 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: because they didn't want that getting into that realm. 74 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, prop bets weren't a factor in these games. These 75 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 2: were people that were fixing or asking the players to 76 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: fix complete games, point spreads and first halfs. But you 77 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 2: know they did it for a long time. So how 78 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 2: they figured it out? Again, there's that crossover. There's two 79 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 2: gentlemen defendants that were also implicated and charged in the 80 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 2: NBA betting scandal. Those same two guys were charged yesterday 81 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 2: in this college. So they're part of this gambling ring 82 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 2: that has been targeting sports for quite a while. They 83 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,559 Speaker 2: started over with the Chinese Basketball Association way over in China. 84 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: They got somea forre NBA players that were over there, 85 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 2: guys from the US got them to try to compromise 86 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 2: some games and fed them inside information. That started in 87 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 2: about September twenty two, according to the indictment. After that, 88 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 2: before the twenty twenty three college basketball season, they turned 89 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 2: their focus to college basketball and what they did is 90 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 2: recruit kids that they had known. They got a guy 91 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 2: that is part of the fixers, they called him, according 92 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: to the FEDS, who trained kids coming up out of 93 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: North Carolina, right young basketball players. He reached back out 94 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: to kids they knew other connections. They started offering them bribes. 95 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 2: Bribes are ten thousand to thirty thousand dollars according to 96 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 2: the indictment. Hey we'll give you this in exchange. You 97 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 2: play poorly in this game right here, so we can 98 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 2: win our bets. 99 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,799 Speaker 1: And when it comes down to the integrity of the game, 100 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: I mean, as a fan, there's one thing. As a conference, 101 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: there's a thing, there's an issue with the school, there's 102 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: an issue with the players. There's a question obviously. Also, 103 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: I mean pick a place where you do your betting, 104 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: because I mean, their livelihood's also involved in this. And 105 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 1: then everyone else who's throwing money on the line for 106 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: any particular game, how does. How do the big betting houses, 107 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 1: whether it's in house, casino or on a phone or 108 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: on app or whatever website, how do they navigate this 109 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: to make sure that people have trust because this could, 110 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: I'm guessing, affect the long term their development in their business. 111 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 2: I mean people always oh, the bookmakers are in on 112 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 2: it or whatever. No, the bookmakers are who loses when 113 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 2: this stuff happens, right, It's their money that is taken 114 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 2: by these guys. So on the other hand, I don't 115 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: think they did themselves very many favors in this scheme 116 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 2: because they took two large e bets on these obscure games, 117 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 2: these twenty nine games have a compromise. It's all small schools, right, 118 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 2: You're talking in Coppin State, Northwestern State. Probly the biggest 119 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 2: two names were DePaul and too Late, but there were 120 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 2: no big major conference teams. They went after this teams 121 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 2: and the kids that come from these small conferences that 122 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 2: maybe don't get the big nil deals and maybe don't 123 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 2: have a lot of extra money running around, maybe don't 124 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 2: think you know what, I'm probably not going to the NBA, 125 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 2: don't have much a professional career, so this is my 126 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: chance to get a few Bucks and that's what they did. 127 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean local news here without being specific, I 128 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: think mentioned Northern Kentucky University, which accords us a Horizon League. 129 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: So I mean that sort of fits exactly the qualifiers 130 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: that you just mentioned. Talking to David Purdamy covers betting 131 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: for sports stuff ESPN chalk with Sterling on seven hundred WLW. 132 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: So moving forward then, am I guessing that the NCAA 133 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: and a lot of these schools across the border going 134 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: to be having meetings And I mean the only thing 135 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: I can compare this to is Plugola, payola issues or 136 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: someone in the business of stocks and stuff where you 137 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: have someone come in every year and you have to 138 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: take tests and prove that you understand guidelines and rules 139 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: and how you go about your business. Is that the 140 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: way it works at the college level. 141 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 2: They do the kids do get education, and they do 142 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 2: sign when they sign their letters of intent or their scholarships, 143 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 2: you know it's honest services. You're going to come out 144 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: here and give your best. So there are those things involved. 145 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 2: The problem is that, like I said before, you're never 146 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: going to completely eliminate this. Whenever there's huge amounts of 147 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 2: money and these guys were getting down four hundred thousand dollars, 148 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 2: you know, on a series of bet not all one bet, 149 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 2: but they'd spread it out through a bunch of different 150 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: sports books, a bunch of accounts, and they get that 151 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: much on a game. And if whenever you're able to 152 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 2: do that, there's an incentive to try to pull these schemes. 153 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 2: Of course, until we figure out a way to decrease 154 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 2: that incentive, it's going to be very difficult to stop 155 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 2: these things completely. 156 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, and that's sort of the nature of anything, 157 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: I guess dealing with money. But it gets a difference 158 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: when it comes to games of skill and somebody saying, 159 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: my knee was bothering me, my shot was off or whatever. 160 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it gets really really uncomfortable for somebody having 161 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: to navigate this. How much more challenging, David, And you 162 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: may not be able to answer this, but I can't 163 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: imagine being a coach or a recruiter and you're going 164 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: to high school to high school, or you know, you're 165 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: you're dealing with your players in your own conference situation, 166 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: and you've got all these different things that you have 167 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: to concern yourself with. Then it's nil and how much 168 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: money can we get the team to you know, these players, 169 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: to keep a team together or to get a new 170 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: team next season, and then you got to worry about 171 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 1: outside for us dangling even more money at them, especially 172 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: on that lower rung or you know, not top ten 173 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: conference kind of scenarios. I mean, it's it's wild. 174 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 2: It's very, very, very difficult environment right now. It's unfortunate 175 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 2: because we want these kids to have opportunities. Even if 176 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 2: they're not going to the major Division one comps, we 177 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 2: still want the kids to play, right, most of these 178 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 2: kids just love to play basketball. And for people that 179 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,959 Speaker 2: have nefarious intentions to come get involved and to compromise 180 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 2: and to manipulate these kids, it's disgusting. And I hope 181 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 2: that we get some sort of deterrent factor from this, 182 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 2: where these people serve some jail time and everybody kind 183 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 2: of goes, hey, I don't want to do that. I 184 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 2: don't want to try to get in jail to make 185 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 2: a few bucks off some bets. It just doesn't make sense. 186 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 2: So I hope we do get a de terres factor 187 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 2: from all these indictments. 188 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: You know. The thing also that's interesting. David Perdin from 189 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: ESPN shalk on the big one with Stirling is it 190 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: wasn't that long ago that we were talking about the 191 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: issue of fans and betters harassing players, kids, students and 192 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: so forth in the midst of this because they were, 193 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: you know, not performing at the level that they expected 194 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: or wanted because it was costing them money. So, I mean, 195 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: from all different vantage points, this has become a much 196 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: murkier scenario. Did you expect this on the outside looking 197 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: in as this was growing and opening up a little bit. 198 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess it makes sense that it would 199 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: just be something that comes part and parcel with the 200 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 1: endeavor that it is. 201 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 2: I certainly thought there would be issues at the college level, 202 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 2: the lower level colleges like we see. I was surprised 203 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,439 Speaker 2: that we've seen so many issues in the NBA and 204 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 2: in Major League Baseball, where you had the two Cleveland 205 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: Guardians pitchers indicted on charges that they kind of participated 206 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 2: in some sort of scheme about manipulating individual pitches for 207 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: betting purpose. Those guys make a lot of money, right 208 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 2: the preessional athletes million dollars salaries, a million, multimillion dollar salaries, 209 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: So I am surprised that they have been willing or 210 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: we got themselves into those kinds of situations. I do 211 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 2: think again that there's going to be This is going 212 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 2: to in the long run, it's going to make people 213 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 2: think twice about getting into these types of situations. More 214 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 2: this stuff gets publicized, more they say, hey, this is 215 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: not worth it. We're trying to go out there and 216 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 2: fix a few games or whatever. So hopefully society will. 217 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 4: Start to adjust to the new atmosphere that we have 218 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 4: where gambling is everywhere, sports betting is everywhere, but you 219 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 4: still can do it responsibly and not you know, with 220 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 4: nefarious intentions. 221 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that makes sense now in short order, 222 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 1: because we appreciate you making time. David Bernin from espnschalk 223 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: with Sterling on the big one. I'm always curious about this, 224 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: the growth of the industry, and we've talked about it. 225 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: What is the dominoes of fallen state by state from 226 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: Ohio across the country. How have those numbers done in 227 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: the last six months to a year. Have we seen 228 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: continued growth? Are anything sort of abating with this or 229 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: is it just still all you know, full on gas go. 230 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is still continuing to grow month after month 231 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 2: when the states report their numbers on how much is 232 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 2: wagered and how much the sports big wins. It continues 233 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 2: to grow, and now we have different sides of the 234 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 2: market where we got these prediction markets and those kind 235 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 2: of like a stock market for sports. Those are kind 236 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 2: of working outside of the traditional state by state regulations. 237 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: They say they're working under the CFTC, the federal guidelines 238 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 2: they're offering and there's a lot of money being traded 239 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 2: on sports outcomes and those things. So yeah, we're continuing 240 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 2: to grow, and we still do not have full legalization 241 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 2: in the biggest states Texas is in your California's. Once 242 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 2: those come on board, markets can almost double. So we're 243 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 2: not to the peak yet, but we're growing. 244 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: It's pretty interesting, and you think about just overall with 245 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: the growth of it, it's astounding that it continues to 246 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: have all of this. I appreciate you doing what you do. 247 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: It's all was fascinating and I just you know, people 248 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: should be able to be free to bet and do 249 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 1: what they want, and you just hope it's all above board, 250 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: and I guess we'll see what the penalties are and 251 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: if things change. Thanks for making time.

They're very funny. You should check them out. 290 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 5: They're called the Blockheads. I do a short story flash 291 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 5: fiction less than ninety nine words and then or or 292 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 5: ninety nine words or less. I also do my movie 293 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 5: reviews on there, and I do excerpts from my stuff. 294 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 5: I've written books and anthologies and that sort of thing. 295 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 5: So there's a lot of stuff, and you know, even 296 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 5: chubbing Stick shows up there every now and then I've 297 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 5: dropped an episode or two into the feed for that. 298 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: Well, i'll have to talk off here about Like I said, 299 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: somebody asked me about that, about re releasing some of this, 300 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: so I don't know how that works, but we'll discuss 301 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: that at another time. What I am curious about also 302 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 1: is there was twenty eight days Later, there was twenty 303 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: eight weeks later. There was more than twenty eight weeks 304 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: between those releases. Then there was the twenty eight years later, 305 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: and that was a whole lot of weight. And then 306 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: now there's a new twenty eight years that the Bone Temple. 307 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: I don't understand what's going on now. 308 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 5: Well, well, okay, so like twenty eight Days Later was 309 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 5: essentially a lot of people call it a zombie movie. 310 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 5: Came out in two thousand and three. I think it's 311 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 5: not really a zombie movie as much as a it's 312 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 5: a virus that causes this rage effect in people, but 313 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 5: they act like zombies. Yeah, the best way to describe it. So, yeah, 314 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 5: it's a zombie movie even though they're not dead. And 315 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 5: that's what Twenty eight Days Later a brilliant movie by 316 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 5: Danny Boyle. You should check it out if you've not 317 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 5: seen it. Then a couple of years later they did 318 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 5: twenty eight weeks later, which was about them because it 319 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 5: takes place in the Scottish Highlands and they were able 320 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 5: to isolate it there, but it was then getting another 321 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 5: outbreak from that because they thought it was they figured 322 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 5: by this point all the all the quote unquote zombies 323 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 5: will have starved to death, but bad things happened. That 324 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 5: was not directed by Danny Boyle, and then he came 325 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 5: back just last year and did twenty eight years later, 326 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 5: and it's not quite twenty eight years from when they 327 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 5: made it, but it's pretty. 328 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: Close, which is really disturbing. 329 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 5: By the way, I know, kind of terrifying. Yeah, it's 330 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 5: I think it's been what twenty two twenty three years, 331 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 5: so now in the twenty eight years later, it was 332 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 5: about this small commune that lives on this island off 333 00:16:55,480 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 5: the Scottish Highland coast and then kind of come back 334 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 5: into Scotland to try and find things, but they're dealing 335 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 5: with all these creatures in the woods and bad things happen. 336 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 5: And they did a sequel to it that sort of 337 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 5: fleshes out this story with some of the characters, one 338 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 5: of them played by Ray Fines and did essentially a sequel. 339 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 5: They must have had that thing queued up, because I 340 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 5: think twenty eight years later came out like in I 341 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 5: want to say, like August or July, and they had 342 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 5: this one ready to go this week. It's directed by 343 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 5: Nia da Costa, and she did movies like she did 344 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 5: a Candy Man reboot a couple of years ago, she 345 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 5: did the Marvels, And I know a lot of people 346 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 5: kind of turn the nose up at that, but that 347 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 5: you know that she was a hired gun for that one, 348 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 5: you know, doing doing a Marvel movie. But she's got 349 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 5: her roots in horror and disturbing stuff. So that's what 350 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 5: this twenty eight weeks or excuse me, twenty eight years later, 351 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 5: The Bone Temple is about. It follows this kid from 352 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 5: the previous film who ended up getting sort of rescued 353 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 5: in quotes by this satanic cult that believes that the 354 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 5: creatures are basically Satan's wrath on earth and they're doing 355 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 5: really bad things. And then they run into a fine 356 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 5: character from the first film, who's this doctor who looks 357 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 5: insane but he really knows what he's doing. And it 358 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 5: kind of fleshes out those stories very well done, But 359 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 5: let me tell you it's disturbing. It's a disturbing horror 360 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 5: movie through and through, and there's a lot of unpleasant stuff. 361 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 5: So I don't want you to think it's just, you know, 362 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 5: this lighthearted, this sort of horror movie romper even meant 363 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 5: to be tongue in cheek. It's not even like a 364 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 5: terror fier movie, which they can be violent, but they 365 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 5: can also be kind of silly at times. Know, this 366 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 5: one's deadly serious and it's not for the week of 367 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 5: stomach or the week of heart, let's just put it 368 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 5: that way. But it's well made. 369 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: Now comparabile. You're talking to Kemic Carr, by the way, 370 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: he is silver Gecko on Stubstack about this new Bone 371 00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: Temple movie. The twenty eight years later sort of canuation 372 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: if you will. So is this the most disturbing of 373 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 1: the other twenty eight days weeks years movies? 374 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 5: Well, well, certainly twenty eight days later and twenty eight 375 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 5: weeks later. We're both the bad guy was the zombies 376 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 5: so to speak to Yeah, that does with the bad 377 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 5: guys in this one and in a little bit of 378 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 5: the last. The most previous both twenty eight years later ones, 379 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 5: the bad guys are the humans that are left alive. 380 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 5: You know, you've got this satanic cult running around doing 381 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 5: really disturbing. I mean, I have a friend in New 382 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 5: York who was he was talking about there are people 383 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 5: walking out of the screening because it has some very 384 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 5: unpleasant stuff. You know, it just don't warn you. 385 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: It's like that doesn't happen regularly. 386 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 5: No, I mean it does, but it's like it's it's 387 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,880 Speaker 5: kind of like sort of like the mainstream American horror. Yes, 388 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 5: it can be gory and grow, but it's in the 389 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 5: sort of a slasher sort of way. You know. No 390 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 5: one ever really took the Friday the Thirteenth movies or 391 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 5: Nightmare on Elm Street or Halloween movies as being anything 392 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 5: that's really kind of viscerally real. They're all kind of 393 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:19,120 Speaker 5: cartoonish in their own way. This is, you know, very disturbing, 394 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 5: you know, and and I don't know if it's for everybody. 395 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 5: That would be my big caution for it, because I 396 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 5: was uncomfortable watching some of it because I'm just like, yeah, 397 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 5: I don't mean to see this. But it does pay off, 398 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 5: you know, as you get through the rest of the movie. 399 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: All right, So it sounds actually interesting. I don't know 400 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 1: if I'm ready to be traumatized. How many movies do 401 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: you think have traumatized you over the years. 402 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 5: Well, I mean it depends. I mean something like I've 403 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 5: always I've talked several times on this show about seeing 404 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 5: Invasion of the Body Snatchers that the kid that sticks 405 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 5: with you. But for me, what traumatizes me? And I 406 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,479 Speaker 5: don't I'm using trauma pretty pretty loosely here. I'm not 407 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 5: going to war or anything like that. But something that 408 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 5: gets under your skin and it disturbs you. Usually it's 409 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 5: got to be something real. Gotta be something where somebody's 410 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 5: doing something really objectively harmful and being okay with it, 411 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 5: you know, And it's usually something real crimes. If you've 412 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 5: got a were wolf eeding somebody, I could watch that 413 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 5: all day, because I mean, we don't have wear. 414 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 1: Wolves that well. 415 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe there are, who knows, But but you know, 416 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 5: like like home Invasion things that those kind of things. 417 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 5: I'm not a big fan of those movies. I also, 418 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 5: and I gotta put this on the record, when somebody 419 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 5: says to me, I've had people say, oh, you should 420 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 5: see this movie. It's brutal, or you should see this movie. 421 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 5: It wrecked me, and I'm like, why do I want 422 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 5: to see that? Why don't I want to see a 423 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 5: movie that makes me feel awful. I'd rather watch something, 424 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 5: you know, fun or not uplifting. I'm not like trying 425 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 5: to say everything needs to be Mayberry movies, but you know, 426 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 5: you have some fun with it. I just I can't 427 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 5: stand the ones that it's just like, we just want 428 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 5: to make you cry and suffer for like two hours. 429 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 1: Like Human Centipede. There was nothing. I don't know if 430 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: there was anything positive about that movie other than it 431 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: was disturbing. I mean, I don't know how they got 432 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: that movie made, or though they made more than one 433 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 1: of those EP. 434 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 5: Well, first of all, it was like a European production 435 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:17,479 Speaker 5: and Tom six did it, and I can't remember what 436 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,479 Speaker 5: country he did in, but it was somewhere in Europe, 437 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 5: and it was at the time. This was when the 438 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 5: first Human Centipede came out. There was seems there seemed 439 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 5: to be this game going on with horror filmmakers's to 440 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 5: who could make the most disturbing movie. And for a 441 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 5: while there was Takashimi Iki's stuff like Ichi the Killer 442 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 5: or then they're they're doing. Then you had Martyrs coming out, 443 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 5: which was a French movie that's pretty intense. And then 444 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 5: and then Human Centipede's like, oh wait minute, and then 445 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 5: and then the Serbian films like Hold My Beer and 446 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 5: kind of topped everything off, and it kind of ended. 447 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 5: I can't even tell you on the radio what a 448 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 5: Serbian film is about. But it was so extreme in 449 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 5: order to be real, at least in America, they had 450 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 5: to make cuts to get an NC seventeen rating. That's 451 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 5: like the worst rating you could get. There's nothing higher 452 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 5: than that. But they wouldn't even grant it an NC 453 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 5: seventeen rating until they made some cuts. 454 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 1: Now to bring up the rating thing. By the way, 455 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: Kevin Carr silver Gecko on Substeck was sterling on the 456 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: big one. So the rating system, it's a very odd, 457 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: arbitrary sort of circumstance. Other countries have their own ratings thing. 458 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 1: I don't know how much of that plays into anything 459 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: that's streaming these days, because nothing has to be approved 460 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: for streaming, right, But it is about going to the 461 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: theater and having it projected on a screen in public. 462 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 5: Correct, Well, it's it's because it's part of the emotion 463 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 5: bigger Association of America the MPAA or the MPa I 464 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 5: think is what it's called now. That's sort of like 465 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 5: they in this in the seventies sometime they basically there 466 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 5: was always throughout the since the beginning a film, there 467 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 5: were people trying to ban certain films and trying to 468 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 5: restrict what can be played, and so the Motion Picture 469 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 5: Association basically made its own self governing thing where they 470 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 5: have these people watching it and then they'd self rate them. 471 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 5: There's no no legal or governmental in control in this. 472 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,959 Speaker 5: It's just the people in who make the movies did it. 473 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 5: But you're right, that was so they could be released 474 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 5: in theaters and then they were sort of like granted, 475 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 5: oh it's a g rated thing, so most movie theaters 476 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 5: will play it and then play PG movies. Once you 477 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 5: started getting above R, which was originally X and then 478 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 5: became NC seventeen in the eighties or early nineties, that 479 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 5: was those are the ones that like certain theaters wouldn't 480 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:49,239 Speaker 5: show because of like community standards. So it was it 481 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 5: was self in put on. And there are a lot 482 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 5: of movies that were released underneath it that just were unrated, 483 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 5: you know, movies like Cannibal Holocaust, or you know, like 484 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 5: last house on the left of those got got got 485 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 5: a rating because they just knew him. They just played 486 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 5: at independent movie houses and that sort of thing. 487 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 1: And that was sort of the drawl in effect. I mean, 488 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: it was not drastically different than say the nineties, I 489 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: guess the late eighties when it became the parental advisory 490 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: sticker on CDs. If people can remember compact disc or 491 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 1: records or even tapes, I guess we're sort of going 492 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: away at that point. 493 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 5: See, that was that was like think in the in 494 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 5: the nineties because it was it was Tipper Gore of 495 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 5: all people that was, oh yeah, that was spearheading that 496 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 5: as the second lady. So it would have been like 497 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 5: ninety two, ninety three, ninety four I think was when 498 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 5: that was going on. And of course there's a great 499 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 5: thing with Frank Zappa, that being he testified to Congress 500 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 5: about it. And of course Frank Zapper was he was smarter. 501 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 5: He was always the smartest guy in the room, and 502 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 5: he knew how to approach it and and and make 503 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 5: it look ridiculous. 504 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 1: D Snyder from Twisted Sister the same thing, and people 505 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 1: were sort of shocked to come in there looking like wackos. Oh, 506 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: these are hard rock guys. You don't know anything, and 507 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: they did. They they literally just shut the room up 508 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: because they made too much sense, which was kind of 509 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: nice and gratifying. 510 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 5: So you're right streaming as no, there's no thing, and 511 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 5: like HBO, Well HBO was playing that game before, you know, 512 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 5: before really streaming came on, because they were doing it 513 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 5: with Game of Thrones. There's stuffing Game of Thrones that 514 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 5: you'd never get released in the movie theater. 515 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: No, I'm still traumatized. Well, you know, a little bit 516 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 1: wholesome and innocent, don't you know? It was all for researchers. 517 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: All it's all h Is there anything else coming out 518 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: that we should be looking forward to besides what's already 519 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: out there? Now the twenty eight years later? Now Bone? 520 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: Uh what is it called Bone? 521 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 5: Bone Temple? 522 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: Can't want to say Bone City or Bone Town, which 523 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: is something else. I don't know what that is, but 524 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: it just sounds bad. Bone Temple. 525 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 5: Just just go randomly start asking people, Hey, do you 526 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 5: want to go to Bone? 527 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: No, I don't want to do. No, nothing good's gonna. 528 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 7: Come for that. 529 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 5: I dare you, I know, I know only if you're. 530 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: With me with a phone to film it, and then 531 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: there's a high. There's nothing good. All that gets me 532 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: is probably like a conversation with law enforcement and a 533 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: weird posting someplace, and then I'll not be doing this 534 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: anymore on the weekend, but begging for change someplace or 535 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what I'd be doing. 536 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 5: Look, it's a great way to get a room for 537 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 5: the night. 538 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, something anyway for the night. Maybe I don't know 539 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: about a room, a code, a cot in anything coming. 540 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 5: What is this? 541 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: By the way, somebody, my neighbor's kids, they tell me everything. 542 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: They're bringing Matta Gascar back. They're not redoing it, they're 543 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 1: just re releasing it. Is that? Is that accurate? 544 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 5: Probably they've been doing that a lot. That's really been 545 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 5: a thing that they started doing. Well, they kind of 546 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 5: always have done it, but really during COVID, when you 547 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 5: weren't getting big movies, a lot of times, especially drive 548 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 5: ins would bring back old movies. And nowadays you'll see 549 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 5: that a lot where they'll they'll show a movie they 550 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 5: just want to get butts in the seat because the 551 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 5: theater doesn't care what you pay to get in. That 552 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 5: just goes the people own the film. 553 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: They want to see, so you buy the. 554 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 5: Food, yeah, popcorn and drinks and all that kind of stuff. 555 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 5: That's why it's like like up in Columbus where I'm from, 556 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 5: they have the movie theaters that will show ow shoe games. 557 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 1: That's right. 558 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 5: And I'm sure there's places down in Cincinnati that show 559 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 5: like the Bearcat Game and the Bengals or whatever. And 560 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 5: it's just that you don't have to pay. You just 561 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 5: go in, but you got to buy beer, and that's 562 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 5: just fun. 563 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. I love the theater experience for 564 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 1: just about everything. I just wondered about the Madagascar thing 565 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: because that's been what fifteen twenty years, and that's a 566 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 1: window and that's isn't that about the time they start 567 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:38,959 Speaker 1: remaking movies anyway? 568 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 5: Well yeah, but I don't know how you remake Madagascar 569 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 5: and have it make look marginally different. I mean, Disney's 570 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 5: going through and making live action versions, and sometimes the 571 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 5: live action versions aren't quote because they did a quote 572 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 5: live action version of The Lion King, but right, there's 573 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 5: no photophotography in that. It was just all computer generated. 574 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 5: But they they're doing that. They got a new Majana 575 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 5: movie coming out that's the live action mawana. 576 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: Okay, I don't know. 577 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 5: But but again, if you're doing Madagascar, I just know 578 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 5: they're going to bring it back, probably because it's it's 579 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 5: the anniversary of it. Yeah, and for kids who are 580 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 5: like six, if you're like five or six when that 581 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 5: movie came out and you loved it, me in your 582 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 5: twenties now, and that's what people do. I was telling 583 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 5: my son, I said, I'm running into people, you know, 584 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 5: women in their thirties with with like Pokemon tattoos, nice 585 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 5: and and you're like, yeah, that's that's the next thing 586 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 5: that's and then you're gonna in a couple of years 587 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 5: there's gonna be like eighty year old grannies. And they 588 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 5: got like, oh and there's there's balbasar, you know on 589 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 5: the tattooed on my arm. You know that kind of thing. 590 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 5: So it's always about what you watch when you're a kid. 591 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: It's true. And these kids that from next door, I 592 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: mean I don't think they're middle school age maybe at best, 593 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: yet lower than that, So I mean they've clearly watched 594 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: or streamed it and they were just all excited telling 595 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: me about it. When I was out with the dog 596 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: the other day, I was like, well, I know who 597 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: to talk to about that. 598 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 5: A lot of times, Yeah, because they get they catch 599 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 5: it on screen streaming. Because I believe that was a 600 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 5: DreamWorks movie. I don't know who the Ronzi writes to it, 601 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 5: but it's out there somewhere. Everyone wants the kid content 602 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 5: on there. But then you could go to the theater 603 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 5: and if you're a little kid and you've seen Madagascar 604 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 5: sixteen times and you drag your parents, and your parents 605 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 5: is gonna whoever, You're gonna hate yourself for it, but 606 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 5: you'll take them to go see Madagascar in our room 607 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 5: full of screaming kids.

Yeah, 612 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: or maybe you imagine. 613 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 5: Going, yeah, going to a pulp fiction you know, revival movie. 614 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 5: That movie is what's thirty two years old, isn't it. 615 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: Oh my god.

He's also the author 653 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: of out There, which is a scientific guide to alien life, antimatter, 654 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: human space travel for the cosmically curious. I'm one of those, 655 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 1: and it's good reading. Welcome back to the Big One. 656 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: How are you, Mike? 657 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 7: Doing good? How are you? 658 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: I'm doing okay. So this is a rare occurrence, right, 659 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: was it Crew eleven? I guess at the International Space Station? 660 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: They went and retrieved them and they just splashed back. 661 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: I think it was yesterday or the other day. 662 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, it's it's yeah. It was like a six 663 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 7: month long SpaceX mission to the International Space Station. You know, 664 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 7: NASA contracted SpaceX to uh provide transportation for astronauts to 665 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 7: and from the International Space Station. And this this is 666 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 7: a mission that launched this past August. It was supposed 667 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 7: to be up for six months. You know, it's supposed 668 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 7: to come home like next month sometime. But like one 669 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 7: of the crew members we still don't know which one 670 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 7: because of medical privacy concerns, like suffered some sort of 671 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 7: ailments on orbit last just last week, and they quickly 672 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 7: decided they wanted to bring the whole crew home to 673 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 7: get it looked at on Earth. You know, where a doctor, 674 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 7: we have more doctors, we got, we got better equipment 675 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 7: to diagnose it and to treat it. And so yeah, 676 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 7: that just happened just a couple of days ago. They 677 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 7: came back everything that's fine apparently, and yeah, so and yeah, 678 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 7: yeah like it. Yeah, it was unprecedented. Nothing like this 679 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 7: has been done on the International Space Station ever, and 680 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 7: it's like twenty five years of astronaut occupy. So yeah, 681 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 7: it was. It was it was something that we hadn't 682 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 7: seen before. 683 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: Talking to Mike Wall from space dot Com, Stirling seven 684 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: hundred WLW so I think back to when I was 685 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: a little kid. It was towards the end days of 686 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 1: what was space Lab, and then came the Space Shuttle 687 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,320 Speaker 1: and all of that and ferring people back and forth 688 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: and so forth, and the docking now with SpaceX and 689 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: all these other private entities that are sort of working 690 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 1: with NASA. It's kind of interesting, Mike. But the idea, 691 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: of course is I guess it's next month. The swing 692 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: around the Moon is expected with Artemis two. Is that right? 693 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's the plan. It's not officially targeted for next month. 694 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 7: Artemis two is the mission we're talking about, which we'll 695 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 7: send four astronauts like around the Moon. They aren't going 696 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 7: to orbit the Moon. They're not going to land. They 697 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 7: just do like a slingshot kind of trajectory around the 698 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 7: Moon and come back to Earth after about ten days. 699 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 7: But still it'll be the first Moon mission with astronauts 700 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 7: on board since Apollo seventeen back in nineteen do so. 701 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 7: So NASA's targeting sort of early February for that launch, 702 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 7: but that's like really tentative. 703 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 5: Right now. 704 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 7: They're about to roll the Giant rocket out to the 705 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 7: launch pad. They're going to do that on Saturday, actually, 706 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 7: so take it from like the kind of high bay 707 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 7: where they stack the rocket and everything, roll it out 708 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 7: to the pad and do a bunch of tests, I 709 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 7: including like these fueling tests and all that stuff, and 710 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 7: if all that goes well, they could theoretically launch as 711 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 7: early as February sixth, but I don't I wouldn't expect that. 712 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 7: I think it'll probably take a little longer, and maybe 713 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 7: it'll March. It'll launch in maybe March or maybe April. 714 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 7: But yeah, we'll just on us have to wait and see. 715 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:33,879 Speaker 8: Now. 716 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: One of the things that you know, we talked about 717 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: it before, you know, the need for clean up like 718 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 1: rumky waste up there to get space junk. We've talked 719 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 1: about the you know, the long term sort of idea 720 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: of going to Mars and in space travel and whether 721 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: there's a moon base or something else out there. The 722 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 1: question of health issues and how that's navigated by NASA 723 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: or whoever else internationally is involved in this. It gets 724 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 1: deep pretty fast because you can't only go and get 725 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: people who have a major health issue, so then you 726 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 1: have to start thinking about all those really sort of 727 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 1: I don't want to say cryptic, but sometimes dark movies 728 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: about what happens in space when someone gets sick or 729 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: has some type of problem. Do we know what their 730 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 1: plans are and how to work that moving ahead? And 731 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,399 Speaker 1: I'm guessing this was an opportunity to learn a little 732 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: bit about how they might navigate and gate that in 733 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: the future too. 734 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, and that, like it is a good question 735 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 7: people in I mean people like have asked NASA officials 736 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 7: that very question. You know, in the wake of this 737 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 7: problem that a nastronaut experience on the ISS, you know, 738 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 7: what does that make you think about Moon missions or 739 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 7: even going farther in the future, you know, I mean 740 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 7: NASA wants to send astronauts to Mars too, and then 741 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 7: not too distant future, So and that's even more risky, 742 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 7: right if you have some sort of health issue on 743 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,359 Speaker 7: the way to Mars, it's like six months there and 744 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 7: six months back, you're not going to be able to 745 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 7: do like an evacuation really and come backtor So it 746 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 7: is something I don't think NASA has the answers to that. 747 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 7: They're certainly thinking about it, Like, I mean, maybe what 748 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 7: will end up happening as you launch, Like I don't know, 749 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 7: people with more medical training, maybe you have a crew 750 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,320 Speaker 7: doctor on board all of these long term space missions. 751 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 7: If we're talking about future Moon missions, future Mars missions, 752 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 7: maybe every crew should have like one medical doctor on 753 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 7: board at the minimum. Like, I don't know, that's something 754 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 7: that we'll have to see going forward, don't. I don't 755 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 7: think NASA or its partners have the answers to that yet, 756 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 7: but they're certainly thinking about. 757 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: It in the timeline. Talking to Mike Wall by the 758 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 1: way Spaceflight to and tech it or from space dot com, 759 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 1: Stirling on the big one, where are we in the 760 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: scheme of things in a timeline do you think of 761 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 1: our space exploration? I mean, you know, we still kindergarten, 762 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: first grade, We're not yet to high school. I mean 763 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 1: I don't know how to gauge it or compare. I 764 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 1: certainly you know the new Star Trek that's coming out, 765 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 1: and a lot of other stuff you can't necessarily compare. 766 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,879 Speaker 1: But so much of what those types of sci fi 767 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 1: shows have brought science an interest in people that are 768 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: actually making the decisions and designing things that the future 769 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,359 Speaker 1: will bring all So I'm just kind of curious where 770 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 1: you think we fit on that continuum. 771 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think we're still pretty early days now. Maybe 772 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 7: elementary school. If you're talking about if the if the 773 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 7: goal is to have I don't know, people living and 774 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 7: working off Earth in a in a real meaningful way, 775 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 7: then yeah, we're just getting started. 776 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:17,600 Speaker 5: You know. 777 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,839 Speaker 7: We like we went to the Moon with Apollo in 778 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 7: the late sixties, early seventies, but that that was just 779 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,720 Speaker 7: flags and footprints, right. We didn't stay there. We didn't 780 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,359 Speaker 7: I mean, we didn't build a base that yet. Again, 781 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 7: I'm not trying to actually minimize that accomplishment was a 782 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 7: huge achievement, but it was designed to just land there 783 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 7: and come home safely. It wasn't designed to build a 784 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 7: base or anything like that. That's what NASA and a 785 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 7: lot of other exploration kids are trying to do now. 786 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 7: That's what a lot of the world spacel community is 787 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 7: working toward, and we're just the early stages of that 788 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 7: trying to figure out. 789 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 5: Yeah. 790 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, and so that's what that's why these Artemist missions 791 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 7: coming up. I mean, this next one Artemist too, is 792 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 7: a big deal because it's going to show that astronauts 793 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 7: can safely ride on the Giant Moon rocket. NASA has 794 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 7: space launches to rocket and the Orion spacecraft, which is 795 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 7: what they'll ride to the Moon and back. It will 796 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 7: kind of it'll kind of certify those vehicles for ashnout 797 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 7: flights and then lay the foundation for Artemis three in 798 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 7: twenty twenty seven or twenty twenty eight, which will actually 799 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 7: land astronauts on the Moon, and if that goes well, 800 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 7: then NASA will work toward actually building a base near 801 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 7: the lunar South Pole where there's thought to be a 802 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 7: lot of water ice that astronauts could access and use 803 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 7: to drink and to make rocket fuel and all that stuff. 804 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 7: So we're but we're still we still haven't launched a 805 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 7: person to the Moon since the seventies, right, so we're 806 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 7: still we're still early days, and we're still testing out 807 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 7: the equipment that is supposed. 808 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 6: To do that. 809 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 7: So yeah, we we've got the know how, but we 810 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 7: just have to prove that we can do it on 811 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 7: a bigger scale in a more ambitious way, which is 812 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 7: what we're trying to do moving forward. 813 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 1: I love that term flags and footprints, because that's what 814 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 1: it was. I wasn't really laughing about like where we 815 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 1: were on the continue, I was just thinking about it 816 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 1: was like that's true. I think he had a golf 817 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: ball and then they bailed out. It's just sort of 818 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,319 Speaker 1: the way it went. Do we know, Mike, about what 819 00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 1: the Chinese did up there? Did they actually have people 820 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: on the Moon or was that just a sort of 821 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: a like a rover they're checking stuff out on the 822 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 1: supposed or so called dark side. 823 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,919 Speaker 7: They have launched a few robotic missions to the Moon. 824 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 7: Now China has and like include they are the first 825 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 7: country ever to put a rover down on the far 826 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 7: side of the Moon. But they also have ambitions to 827 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,280 Speaker 7: put people on the Moon and to build a lunar base. 828 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,400 Speaker 7: They've got this project with the Russians that wants to 829 00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 7: do that in the mid twenty thirties, and they actually 830 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:31,400 Speaker 7: want to put people down there by twenty thirty. That 831 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,799 Speaker 7: their first astronauts on the Moon in four or five years, 832 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 7: which is pretty ambitious. But they've been making kind of 833 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 7: step wise progress toward it. So they're a legitimate threat 834 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 7: to kind of do it first, which is why you 835 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 7: hear a bunch of kind of moon race rhetoric coming 836 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 7: from our politicians and our kind of government officials and stuff. 837 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 7: I mean, there is this imperative in those circles to 838 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 7: do it before China does, to show that we're still 839 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 7: a top dog in space and all that stuff. This 840 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 7: is like kind of like a simple thing that NASA 841 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 7: and the US government are trying to do. But yeah, 842 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 7: I mean China is doing it more in the apollo 843 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 7: kind of manner where they're not their first missions are 844 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 7: going to be sort of Apollo like, they aren't doing 845 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 7: it in the sustainable way of our first missions are 846 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 7: going to start establishing a moon base, but they are 847 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 7: trying to build a base at some point in the 848 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 7: future too. 849 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: Mike Wallas from space dot com Spaceflight Editor Tech editor 850 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:31,479 Speaker 1: was Stirling on seven hundred WLW. So that's interesting because 851 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: you mentioned the jockeing and posturing that's taking place politically, 852 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 1: but also the idea of strategizing for colony, colonizing for 853 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 1: one of a better way to describe it. And we're 854 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,320 Speaker 1: talking about Greenland now, the threat of Russia and China 855 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,280 Speaker 1: and how that deal may or may not go, whatever 856 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: is with that. I don't want to get political about it, 857 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 1: but it's really the same concept in space or even 858 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 1: at sea, especially as sort of all the big ice 859 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: is melting or they're in climate change and so forth, 860 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 1: whether it's jettising off this planet or anywhere else. It's 861 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 1: really the same game no matter what. 862 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 6: Correct. 863 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 7: Yeah, and that sort of high season analogy is a 864 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 7: good one. That's why they say it's important for the 865 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,000 Speaker 7: US to beat China back to the moon is because 866 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 7: whoever gets there first this time around and starts doing 867 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 7: things like scouting for resources and extracting resources and building 868 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 7: bases and stuff like that, they will get to kind 869 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,879 Speaker 7: of set the procedures and the norms and the moon, 870 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:30,879 Speaker 7: which are not very well laid out at this point 871 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 7: at all. So it will be kind of like a 872 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:35,759 Speaker 7: high seas or a wild West sort of situation, is 873 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 7: what people are worried about. So whoever gets there first 874 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 7: has the chance to kind of set what will be 875 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,879 Speaker 7: the norms of responsible behavior. That's what That's what kind 876 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 7: of military officials say, what government officials say here, and 877 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 7: we want to be that organization or that entity that 878 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 7: does that. 879 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, it makes sense. What if I not ask in 880 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,360 Speaker 1: relation to any of this or anything else that's worthy 881 00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 1: of conversation when it comes to space stuff, because it 882 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 1: seems like every week there's a bunch of headlines, but 883 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,359 Speaker 1: this has been, you know, a fast and heavy one, 884 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 1: because we're talking about people coming home who what are 885 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 1: planning on staying and it was obviously a health concern, 886 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: which is pretty wild. 887 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, those are the two big ones, you know that 888 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 7: the Crew eleven, that the medical evacuation base and the 889 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 7: Artemis two ramp up and them happening back to back. 890 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 7: I think those are the Yeah, those are the big things, 891 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 7: you know what In like, while NASA is getting is 892 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 7: trying to do the Artemis two ramp up, they're also 893 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,320 Speaker 7: they're preparing it with with SpaceX to launch Crew twelve, 894 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 7: which are the replacements for the Crew eleven astronauts who 895 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 7: had to come home a month early. So, like that's 896 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,880 Speaker 7: schedule to launch on February fifteenth, which means for the 897 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:42,959 Speaker 7: next like month or so, there will only be three 898 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 7: people on the International Space Missing puting only one NASA astronauts. 899 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 7: That's kind of interesting too because the baseline crew level 900 00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 7: up there is seven, so they're going to be a 901 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 7: real skeleton crew for the next like month or so, 902 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 7: which is kind of interesting. 903 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,879 Speaker 1: What do they do up there with that base crew 904 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 1: you say, of six or seven compared to this three? 905 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:03,359 Speaker 1: I mean, I know, the size of it is not 906 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,359 Speaker 1: I mean, what's it comparable to here size wise as 907 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 1: far as modules for residential I guess a living or 908 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 1: functioning because they're up there working, they're not just kicking 909 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:13,320 Speaker 1: back watching Netflix. 910 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 7: I'm guessing yeah, it's got about as much living area 911 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,840 Speaker 7: as like a five bedroom house, I believe, is what 912 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 7: NASA says. And most of what the astronauts are doing 913 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 7: up there, in addition to the routine maintenance stuff, is 914 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 7: like scientific experiments, you know, doing a lot of studies 915 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:33,840 Speaker 7: of how plants, like how seeds germinate in microgravity, like 916 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 7: how radiation affects like some bacteria and other single celled 917 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:40,640 Speaker 7: organisms or mice and rats and stuff like that. There's 918 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 7: always a bunch of stuff like that going on, or 919 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 7: working to figure out how you can manufacture certain things 920 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 7: in microgravity. There are all these all these experiments that 921 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 7: go up there with each crew or each each cargo 922 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 7: ship because there so what's going to happen with the 923 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 7: three person crew is some of that experimental work. They're 924 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 7: going to be able to devote as much time to 925 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 7: the experiments, obviously, because the the crew of three has 926 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 7: to perform like the baseline maintenance stuff and just to 927 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 7: make sure everything's working fine. That's not something you can 928 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 7: skip on right. So with fewer people up there, that 929 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 7: just means there won't be as much time for the 930 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 7: astronauts to do some of the science work. And it 931 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:17,479 Speaker 7: also means that they won't be able to do any 932 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 7: spacewalks really on the American side, because there's only one 933 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,800 Speaker 7: NASA astronaut, and you don't do a spacewalk with one person. 934 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 7: There are always two person affairs for safety reasons. So 935 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:29,799 Speaker 7: that's just another thing that they'll have to wait to do. 936 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 7: They actually had planned to do two spacewalks this month, 937 00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 7: but those were canceled after the medical thing kind of 938 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:37,720 Speaker 7: popped up with the crew eleven astronaut. 939 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that took priority for sure. Now the other thing 940 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 1: I want to just before we let you hop and 941 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 1: I appreciate you and make it a time for us 942 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 1: here on the Friday Night Stirling with Mike Wall from 943 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,600 Speaker 1: space dot Com. I know you've got some hoops action 944 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 1: with little one the young Wall shortly, so we appreciate it. 945 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 1: The Starlink satellite thing, which I think I actually saw 946 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:00,239 Speaker 1: in the sky for the first time, maybe at a 947 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 1: week ago, give or take, which was pretty wild. I'd 948 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 1: seen it on video, but never in person. It was 949 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 1: a pretty interesting thing just for about the ten minutes 950 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:10,319 Speaker 1: or less that I actually got to see it, sort 951 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 1: of moved through it, but it caame top of mind 952 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:17,280 Speaker 1: again obviously with Iran and the government shutting down internet 953 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,279 Speaker 1: and so forth, which is pretty standard in a lot 954 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 1: of places when war happens, either the enemy does it 955 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,840 Speaker 1: or even I guess you know, a tyrant type of 956 00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:28,319 Speaker 1: government scenario, whatever you want to describe that as. But 957 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 1: they opened up Starlink for people to be able to 958 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: have access to get information and share it. How regularly 959 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 1: and how available are those star links to people just 960 00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 1: in general? I mean you got to buy some you know, 961 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: like hardware gear for that. It's not like you can 962 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,799 Speaker 1: just dial into it from your laptop of your phone, 963 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:49,919 Speaker 1: I'm guessing. But what a great thing to be able 964 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 1: to do for people that would have been isolated otherwise. 965 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, you like, you have to buy a subscription, you 966 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 7: have to buy buy like a terminal from SpaceX to 967 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 7: be able to receive all the signals the Starlink satellite 968 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 7: send down. And they're almost ten thousand of them up 969 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:07,840 Speaker 7: there now, and they they it's much less. It's it's 970 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 7: it's much harder to deprive your citizens of Internet if 971 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 7: it's coming from space obviously, then if it's like being 972 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:18,439 Speaker 7: broadcast from towers here on Earth, so or fibers or whatever. 973 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,240 Speaker 7: You can cut fibers, you can, you can go disable 974 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 7: the tower. But it is much harder for for like 975 00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 7: a sovereign nation or an organization of some sort to 976 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 7: stop signals coming down from space. It's not it's it's 977 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,759 Speaker 7: not impossible. You you actually can jam signals coming back 978 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 7: from space in the microwave spectrum, which like I think 979 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,400 Speaker 7: Iran has been trying to do that with starlink and 980 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 7: maybe and may have even succeeded to some degree, Like 981 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 7: not sure what the most strustworthy accounts about that are, 982 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 7: but but I know Iran has been trying to do 983 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 7: that to keep the citizens in the dark, even from starlink. 984 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 7: So it's not like one hundred percent foolproof, but it's 985 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 7: much much harder to keep to cut those systems down 986 00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 7: than the ground based systems. 987 00:47:58,560 --> 00:47:58,960 Speaker 2: For sure. 988 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:00,920 Speaker 1: It's pretty wild because in the news, of course we've 989 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:03,319 Speaker 1: heard about those cables in the ocean that have been 990 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,879 Speaker 1: gouged and more than once actually, and then now this, 991 00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 1: and then you start thinking about those flights that we 992 00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 1: don't necessarily know that are dark from our military, and 993 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,160 Speaker 1: who knows what our enemies are doing up there too. 994 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:16,719 Speaker 1: It all goes back to that again. You think you're 995 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 1: safe down here and here you're not up there. There's 996 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:22,000 Speaker 1: something else going on. It gets deep and it does fast. Mike, Well, 997 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:24,359 Speaker 1: thank you for doing what you do, and space dot 998 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: Com is always a great resource.

Apparently there's been a judge that's 1021 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,000 Speaker 1: come out in order that ICE is gonna have to 1022 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:42,280 Speaker 1: curb some of their actions in and around the Twin Cities. 1023 00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 1: Not sure what the details on that are. We'll talk 1024 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 1: to her. Also about the Tenth Amendment. Is Minneapolis, or 1025 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 1: at least the state of Minnesota, I should say, as 1026 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 1: well as Illinois, are talking about Tenth Amendment issues, which 1027 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 1: is limiting powers of the federal government in the state. 1028 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 1: How that comes in play. And of course President Trump 1029 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 1: has talked about the Insurrection Act and how that may 1030 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 1: move ahead if necessary, to sort of put more boots 1031 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 1: on the ground literally and figuratively of our military. In 1032 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 1: and around the Twin Cities, which I don't know that 1033 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,879 Speaker 1: anybody really wants that, so we'll talk to her about 1034 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 1: that later on. Also, David Purdin from ESPN shalt conversation 1035 00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:25,520 Speaker 1: we had about the NCAA hoops scandal that later on, 1036 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 1: and on the other side something else. I'm wondering if 1037 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:33,279 Speaker 1: you can think back to your youth unless you're a 1038 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 1: kid now, and I'm wondering what the first really big 1039 00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 1: news story that you can remember from being a kid 1040 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:44,359 Speaker 1: that's stuck with you. I can think of one now 1041 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,880 Speaker 1: that had to do with the US hostages in Iran 1042 00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 1: when I was a tiny sterling, and I think that's 1043 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:54,360 Speaker 1: like the first news thing that I can really vividly recall. 1044 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 5: That. 1045 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 1: Maybe the bi centennial, which of course we're looking at 1046 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:02,319 Speaker 1: two fifty for the US come July as well being celebrated, 1047 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 1: so we'll get into that.

David Purdham from 1067 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:11,400 Speaker 1: ESPN Chalk, who's been all over TV. I was up 1068 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:14,000 Speaker 1: late last night and flipping around in the news and 1069 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,480 Speaker 1: streaming ABC News. It was like two or three in 1070 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 1: the morning. All of a sudden, I hear a familiar 1071 00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: voice from down the halls. I'm running around the house 1072 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,080 Speaker 1: and I'm like I know that guy, What the hell's 1073 00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:25,920 Speaker 1: going on?

A lot of people 1079 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:44,760 Speaker 1: headed home right now from Reds Fast downtown and the 1080 00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 1: just open kicking the door wide open to a new 1081 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: era with the convention Center downtown. A lot of Reds fans, 1082 00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:56,359 Speaker 1: you know, sort of thinking about well, the future and 1083 00:52:56,640 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 1: maybe some news stories of note, which for some I 1084 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:01,840 Speaker 1: was talking talking to a buddy of mine earlier today 1085 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 1: about this. I was saying, like, first news events that 1086 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 1: might stick in your head, I might resonate. We talked sports, 1087 00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 1: he mentioned Big Red Machine. He's a little bit older 1088 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,160 Speaker 1: than me. It was right in the middle of his 1089 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 1: early part of his teenage years, and it was totally like, 1090 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:20,920 Speaker 1: that's the first news thing that he can remember, and 1091 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:24,400 Speaker 1: it was sports related and REGs related. And then I 1092 00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 1: can remember and there's two things that stick out news related. 1093 00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 1: One the bi centennial in the Freedom Train that I 1094 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,360 Speaker 1: got to hop a boy with my Grandma Betty to 1095 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:34,640 Speaker 1: sort of look at the history of this nation when 1096 00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 1: I was a tiny kid. And then the other thing 1097 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:41,560 Speaker 1: that sticks out glaringly was the Iran hostages thing that 1098 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 1: was in the news on a regular basis. I'd come 1099 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:46,240 Speaker 1: home from school, I'd watched the news, and the Nightline 1100 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:48,920 Speaker 1: happened as a result of that, which is still on 1101 00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:52,320 Speaker 1: the air today. So I'm wondering, what is the first 1102 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:56,799 Speaker 1: news story could be sports, but big news event that 1103 00:53:56,880 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 1: you can remember in general, whether asuming probably for most 1104 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:04,000 Speaker 1: of us from our childhood or otherwise.

See, I can't imagine the closest thing. And 1130 00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:26,000 Speaker 1: it was a presidential memory to me, now that you 1131 00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: think you mentioned that, I can remember. I took a 1132 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:31,160 Speaker 1: bus to the doctor's office as a kid, and I 1133 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: had to go in and get like an allergy shot. 1134 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:35,840 Speaker 1: And then I got out of the office and I 1135 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:38,560 Speaker 1: was waiting for the bus, and it was an odd 1136 00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:40,800 Speaker 1: thing that the bus driver was out having a cigarette 1137 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:43,080 Speaker 1: and there were some other people waiting to hop on 1138 00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:45,600 Speaker 1: the bus, and they had the radio one which was 1139 00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:47,399 Speaker 1: on the Big One, which of course is now where 1140 00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 1: we're having our conversation, Paul. And it was when Reagan 1141 00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:55,279 Speaker 1: had been shot and he was sheet white. I was 1142 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: sort of traumatized. I'm a little kid in the thought 1143 00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 1: of having the president the you know, gravely entered, perhaps 1144 00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 1: dying or otherwise. It was crazy. I can't imagine you 1145 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:06,880 Speaker 1: at seven the same type of feeling with Roosevelt. 1146 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:13,360 Speaker 9: Well, I remember vividly hanging on to my dad because 1147 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,880 Speaker 9: he was a news hound. He was interested in anything 1148 00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:21,680 Speaker 9: that the world news. He tried to go join up 1149 00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:25,239 Speaker 9: in the military to fight the Japanese the day after 1150 00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 9: Pearl Harbor, and he was rejected because he had flat 1151 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,880 Speaker 9: feet and hemorrhoids. But he was a true patriots sterling. 1152 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,239 Speaker 1: I do believe that flat feet I have. I don't 1153 00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:37,480 Speaker 1: think I have the roids, but I didn't realize the 1154 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 1: roids to keep you out of of the military. But 1155 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:42,360 Speaker 1: at least he was here in state safe and was 1156 00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:44,200 Speaker 1: there to provide and take care of the family. Paul, 1157 00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:45,880 Speaker 1: thank you for listening to being a part of the show. 1158 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 8: Oh. 1159 00:56:47,239 --> 00:56:51,320 Speaker 9: I listened faithfully to wlwi's my all time favorite radio station. 1160 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 9: I go way back with the Reds to nineteen thirty nine, 1161 00:56:55,160 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 9: Ernie Lombardi and Frank McCormick, Bucky Walters, Paul Dringer and 1162 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:05,759 Speaker 9: uh So Wider.

That's tremendous, quite 1167 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:17,040 Speaker 1: a bit of history. Wondering what the first news story 1168 00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:19,560 Speaker 1: that you can remember is from your childhood or otherwise. 1169 00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 1: That resonated. And I mean, and he talked about Rusevelt 1170 00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 1: it and hearing it the president that passed away. I 1171 00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:27,040 Speaker 1: mean that that'll shake you, that'll mess with you. 1172 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 3: You know. 1173 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:30,040 Speaker 1: It's one of those things that Joe Waddell's producing the show. 1174 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:33,560 Speaker 1: Authier just mentioned to me a minute ago. I don't 1175 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:34,520 Speaker 1: know if you wants to do this on the air 1176 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:35,880 Speaker 1: or not, but I'll mention it. If you want to 1177 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:37,680 Speaker 1: crack the MICU feel free to do whatever you want 1178 00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:40,280 Speaker 1: to do. But he mentioned that he thinks that it 1179 00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:43,360 Speaker 1: was when the was it the shuttle? No, what was it? 1180 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:47,920 Speaker 1: You just said just a minute nine to eleven, right, Yeah, 1181 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 1: So I think he mentioned his first real memory of 1182 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 1: news was when nine eleven happened in two thousand and one, 1183 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 1: which immediately makes me feel like I'm a little long 1184 00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 1: in the tooth, because I was working on the radio 1185 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:01,560 Speaker 1: in Collogembus at the time. I had left here and 1186 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:05,720 Speaker 1: taken the night show at our sister station WTVN in Columbus, 1187 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:08,200 Speaker 1: where I worked with my good buddy Corpy and a 1188 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:11,640 Speaker 1: bunch of other people. And I can vividly remember that 1189 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 1: happening and the thing that shook me after, aside from 1190 00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:18,200 Speaker 1: just the nature of what went down in how all 1191 00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:21,640 Speaker 1: of our lives have changed, and in this case Joe Waddell, 1192 00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 1: all he knows is the issue of invasions of privacy 1193 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:28,320 Speaker 1: and giving up our freedoms and the Patriot Act and 1194 00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 1: everything else that subsequently followed for all of our supposed 1195 00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 1: safety getting into our prefer real business. And I can remember, 1196 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:40,120 Speaker 1: aside from the event itself happening, what really grabbed me 1197 00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:42,920 Speaker 1: and resonated in and did even meet a day you 1198 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:44,800 Speaker 1: could hear a lot of freight trains right where I 1199 00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 1: lived in Columbus, and you could hear Port Columbus. Now 1200 00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 1: I think it's John Glenn Airport, but at the time. 1201 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 1: It was Port Columbus. Just like around cveg. You would 1202 00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 1: notice this too, or lunken. They shut down trains and 1203 00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:03,000 Speaker 1: playing across this nation. And it was one of the 1204 00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:08,760 Speaker 1: most eerie, oddly uncomfortable, uncertain times that I can remember 1205 00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 1: ever in my life, because we did not know what 1206 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:15,400 Speaker 1: was happening with New York or Pennsylvania or the Pentagon 1207 00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:17,400 Speaker 1: or the future of the world as we knew it. 1208 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 1: And I'd never heard the silence without trains or planes 1209 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 1: in the sky, and for a few days there was 1210 00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:28,640 Speaker 1: none other than military aircraft. It was unreal, is what 1211 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 1: it was. Five point three seven four nine seven, eight hundred, 1212 00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:33,280 Speaker 1: the big one.

Where would you like 1462 01:11:57,200 --> 01:11:57,719 Speaker 14: to start? 1463 01:11:57,880 --> 01:11:59,880 Speaker 1: Well, you know, there is so much going on, but 1464 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:03,160 Speaker 1: I think right now the headline of headlines is that 1465 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:08,440 Speaker 1: they're ongoing protest on the ground and tussles with engagements 1466 01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:12,400 Speaker 1: that have gotten quite violent and led to one shooting 1467 01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:16,400 Speaker 1: of missus Good who has left her partner behind, her 1468 01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:20,000 Speaker 1: wife and some kids. That's being investigated. There have been 1469 01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:24,080 Speaker 1: questions about that it has taken a more serious turn 1470 01:12:24,280 --> 01:12:26,960 Speaker 1: subsequent to it. If that's even possible another shooting with 1471 01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:31,200 Speaker 1: someone apparently trying to evade allegedly Ice and Border patrol. 1472 01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:35,320 Speaker 1: This continues to go on. The President dangled out the 1473 01:12:35,360 --> 01:12:40,040 Speaker 1: idea of the Insurrection Act, and then of course Governor Walls, 1474 01:12:40,240 --> 01:12:44,040 Speaker 1: tim Wall's former vice presidential candidate, and the mayor of 1475 01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:48,600 Speaker 1: Minneapolis Fry apparently it talked about the idea of the 1476 01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:51,360 Speaker 1: tenth Amendment. Same thing in the state of Illinois. Can 1477 01:12:51,360 --> 01:12:56,759 Speaker 1: you explain Tenth Amendment issues surrounding policing on the ground 1478 01:12:57,240 --> 01:13:00,360 Speaker 1: in a state compared to say, DC in the federal level, 1479 01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:04,160 Speaker 1: and them getting involved because of the call about Insurrection 1480 01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:07,160 Speaker 1: Act is also a fairly serious step. 1481 01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:13,000 Speaker 14: It is. And even before we get there, a judge 1482 01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:17,479 Speaker 14: just ruled tonight, a district judge telling Ice they may 1483 01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:21,559 Speaker 14: not pepper spray or use tear gas against the protesters, 1484 01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:26,000 Speaker 14: and she also reiterated that they may not be detained. Now, obviously, 1485 01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:30,479 Speaker 14: if you interfere with operations, that's a different matter. But 1486 01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:34,479 Speaker 14: but but the protection of these individuals, and this goes 1487 01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:37,920 Speaker 14: to the authority who you know, who will have authority here. 1488 01:13:38,920 --> 01:13:42,559 Speaker 14: It's such an interesting ongoing conversation. Here we are at 1489 01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:47,000 Speaker 14: a States Rights argument. Uh, And you know, so many 1490 01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:51,559 Speaker 14: cases have been argued already abortions for example, who who 1491 01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:56,400 Speaker 14: will make the rules about transgender athletes? States rights? States rights? 1492 01:13:56,760 --> 01:14:00,320 Speaker 14: And we're coming down to a states rights argument as well, 1493 01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 14: as you also may have noted earlier, the mayor and 1494 01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:09,519 Speaker 14: the governor have been subpoened looking into the corruption case 1495 01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:13,920 Speaker 14: in terms of all the public spending. So they filed 1496 01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:18,080 Speaker 14: three or four motions, you know, trying to go at 1497 01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:23,960 Speaker 14: the federal operation from a number of different angles. Are 1498 01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:26,800 Speaker 14: they going to get emergency attention to it? I don't 1499 01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:31,559 Speaker 14: think so. My question tonight is where is this going? 1500 01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:36,200 Speaker 14: And is there any chance that someone, somehow we will 1501 01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:39,920 Speaker 14: be able to de escalate the situation. And how did 1502 01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:43,960 Speaker 14: Obama manage to arrest and deport five million people during 1503 01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:47,000 Speaker 14: his presidency without demonstrations like this? 1504 01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:50,040 Speaker 1: Yeah? Well what happened then? Because I don't know that 1505 01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:53,200 Speaker 1: a lot of people doctor Schliheck were paying attention except 1506 01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:57,000 Speaker 1: people that were directly involved with that. So what is 1507 01:14:57,040 --> 01:15:00,479 Speaker 1: the difference? I mean, the President Obama stayed a fairly 1508 01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:03,599 Speaker 1: low profile with it at the time. President Trump, of course, 1509 01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:07,000 Speaker 1: has made this effectively a pillar or a lynchpin in 1510 01:15:07,080 --> 01:15:10,240 Speaker 1: his presidency and effectively that helped get him re elected. 1511 01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:18,920 Speaker 14: A lot of the arrests under Obama were at the border. 1512 01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:24,000 Speaker 14: What they avoided doing was going into homes and places 1513 01:15:24,040 --> 01:15:27,960 Speaker 14: of business. Right, does this sound familiar a little bit? 1514 01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:32,439 Speaker 14: It's it definitely should. The story out of Minneapolis today 1515 01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:35,759 Speaker 14: was dining in a in a in a Somali restaurant 1516 01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:41,439 Speaker 14: and then arresting the workers afterwards. But to come back 1517 01:15:41,439 --> 01:15:46,360 Speaker 14: to your question about the Tenth Amendment, it's it is 1518 01:15:46,400 --> 01:15:50,360 Speaker 14: a question about who will have jurisdiction, who will have authority, 1519 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:57,120 Speaker 14: And you know, the Tenth Amendment leaves you know, a 1520 01:15:57,200 --> 01:16:01,280 Speaker 14: lot to the states, right, But this is a federal 1521 01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:07,559 Speaker 14: immigration case. You see the problem and the expectation is 1522 01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:11,880 Speaker 14: I don't think it's a very strong argument. It's federal immigration. 1523 01:16:12,120 --> 01:16:16,840 Speaker 14: These are federal authorities. The judge who ruled today about 1524 01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,720 Speaker 14: the treatment of the protesters said, you know, you may 1525 01:16:19,760 --> 01:16:24,720 Speaker 14: not arrest if you don't have documentation. You may not 1526 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:29,320 Speaker 14: arrest you know, citizens, certainly unless they are interfering with 1527 01:16:29,479 --> 01:16:34,760 Speaker 14: your operation. But Minnesota is asking the courts to, you know, 1528 01:16:35,200 --> 01:16:39,960 Speaker 14: to rule on a case of states rights and state authority. 1529 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:45,320 Speaker 14: I'm not particularly persuaded. I don't think most people hearing 1530 01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:51,519 Speaker 14: the argument would be it's our immigration problems, our border issue. Customs. 1531 01:16:51,560 --> 01:16:56,519 Speaker 14: Immigration are federal in scope. They happen to be focused 1532 01:16:56,560 --> 01:17:01,080 Speaker 14: in Minneapolis right now. But I think it's one of those, 1533 01:17:02,040 --> 01:17:05,599 Speaker 14: you know, very very slender case. They've got a couple 1534 01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:08,879 Speaker 14: of other arguments that they are making before the justices 1535 01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:14,400 Speaker 14: right now. I share your concern though about the Insurrection Act. 1536 01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:17,800 Speaker 14: We have to go back to Rodney King. I know 1537 01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:22,120 Speaker 14: you're not old enough to remember Rodney King nineteen ninety two. 1538 01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:24,800 Speaker 1: Oh, that's very funny. 1539 01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:29,360 Speaker 14: I followed it. You do remember them somewhat, at least 1540 01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:32,800 Speaker 14: you've seen stories. And the state had to ask the 1541 01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:35,400 Speaker 14: said to come in, so that's that is the standard. 1542 01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:40,599 Speaker 14: But when you read the Insurrection Acts, it's short, it's vague, 1543 01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:45,080 Speaker 14: it's broad, and who has the power to declare it? 1544 01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:49,280 Speaker 14: One person, the President, under what conditions the ones that 1545 01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:55,200 Speaker 14: he that he cites, So he has incredibly broad authority 1546 01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:59,680 Speaker 14: and it's not invoked often. Is this a Rodney King situation? 1547 01:18:00,240 --> 01:18:03,280 Speaker 14: The irony, of course, is that Minneapolis and twenty twenty 1548 01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:09,479 Speaker 14: dealt with riot's protests having to do with George Floyd. 1549 01:18:09,640 --> 01:18:13,360 Speaker 14: Correct Another one of those weird coincidences in this case. 1550 01:18:13,680 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very troubling. I can remember the Rodney King 1551 01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:19,479 Speaker 1: thing and how that related. I can remember being on 1552 01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:21,599 Speaker 1: the air at Tui and Dayton, which is a rock 1553 01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:24,720 Speaker 1: station for those who don't know, and the TV on 1554 01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:28,559 Speaker 1: and looking up and seeing that white Bronco being chased 1555 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:31,880 Speaker 1: slowly on the five I believe is what it was 1556 01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:34,880 Speaker 1: in southern California in the midst of all that subsequent 1557 01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:37,599 Speaker 1: to it, with the OJ thing and everything else, sort 1558 01:18:37,600 --> 01:18:40,639 Speaker 1: of in and around that whole window of time where 1559 01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:43,560 Speaker 1: all kinds of weird stuff was happening, seemingly. 1560 01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:49,240 Speaker 14: The slow motion car chase, yeah right, yeah, correct on 1561 01:18:49,320 --> 01:18:54,200 Speaker 14: the interstate in California. This is before the age of 1562 01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:58,040 Speaker 14: drones as well, but with helicopter coverage. So to come 1563 01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:04,519 Speaker 14: back to Minneapolis, local state authority basically overwhelmed right now, 1564 01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:07,840 Speaker 14: just by the two or three thousand person delegation that's 1565 01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:12,519 Speaker 14: that's been sent up there. The mobilization of communities and 1566 01:19:13,080 --> 01:19:16,400 Speaker 14: citizen groups is something that I've been interested to watch. 1567 01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 14: You know, the communication networks, it's usually just a WhatsApp 1568 01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:26,680 Speaker 14: chat or a text and distribution of whistles, right, but 1569 01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:29,880 Speaker 14: a lot of the people who are protesting is this 1570 01:19:29,960 --> 01:19:33,479 Speaker 14: is not all blue haired and middle aged white ladies 1571 01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:39,599 Speaker 14: out there protesting as well. The community solidarity is something 1572 01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:42,720 Speaker 14: that I think is is being demonstrated, whether it is 1573 01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:46,640 Speaker 14: the late night protests at the federal facility, but the 1574 01:19:46,680 --> 01:19:50,120 Speaker 14: way citizens alert neighbors when they think ICE might be 1575 01:19:50,280 --> 01:19:57,479 Speaker 14: in the neighborhood. It's toughened public response despite as you said, 1576 01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:02,120 Speaker 14: one death and at least one one shooting. But the 1577 01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:04,920 Speaker 14: public doesn't seem to be in a mood to back down. 1578 01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:09,600 Speaker 14: And of course, in situations like this, who de escalates? 1579 01:20:09,640 --> 01:20:11,320 Speaker 1: Well, and that's who was the question? 1580 01:20:11,400 --> 01:20:11,479 Speaker 5: How? 1581 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:15,320 Speaker 1: How how does this back off in a situation like this, 1582 01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:17,760 Speaker 1: Doctor O'dona Schlechts, the former head of political science at 1583 01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:20,320 Speaker 1: right stage, she's not Professor Meredith was sterling on the 1584 01:20:20,320 --> 01:20:23,800 Speaker 1: Big One talking about what's going on in the Twin Cities, Minneapolis, 1585 01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:25,160 Speaker 1: Saint Paul, Minnesota. 1586 01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:26,960 Speaker 5: So in a. 1587 01:20:26,920 --> 01:20:30,400 Speaker 1: Situation like this and the you know, interfering with ice 1588 01:20:30,680 --> 01:20:35,320 Speaker 1: border patrol agencies they go about their work. There has 1589 01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:38,800 Speaker 1: been questioned about how involved Minneapolis police or Saint Paul 1590 01:20:38,840 --> 01:20:40,960 Speaker 1: police have been allowed to be involved. We know that 1591 01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:44,599 Speaker 1: they were shut out of this investigation around MS Goods 1592 01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:49,080 Speaker 1: killing and how that played out in the talk of 1593 01:20:49,120 --> 01:20:52,040 Speaker 1: absolute immunity, which I think has a lot of people rankled, 1594 01:20:52,040 --> 01:20:56,160 Speaker 1: regardless of political ideology. To the idea that somehow there 1595 01:20:56,240 --> 01:20:59,639 Speaker 1: is no check in balance for law enforcement on the street, 1596 01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:03,679 Speaker 1: federal level, or otherwise is somewhat suspect. I think, where 1597 01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:06,400 Speaker 1: is the line as far as interfering with these people 1598 01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:09,160 Speaker 1: doing their work, and what I mean by that is 1599 01:21:09,720 --> 01:21:12,400 Speaker 1: showing up as a crowd, filming them from a distance, 1600 01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 1: not engaging, not physically interfering. Where is the line there 1601 01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:19,479 Speaker 1: of what's acceptable and not. I know they're teaching people 1602 01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:21,080 Speaker 1: some of this, but we've seen a lot of these 1603 01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:25,320 Speaker 1: protesters cross that line and engage physically. And some of 1604 01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:29,480 Speaker 1: the border patroll or ICE agents also seemingly quite aggressive 1605 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:32,920 Speaker 1: in making some type of point with the protesters as well. 1606 01:21:34,520 --> 01:21:37,160 Speaker 14: Boy, you know, these conversations are so painful. I mean, 1607 01:21:37,439 --> 01:21:40,760 Speaker 14: this is Ohio, right, We had a can state situation 1608 01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:47,519 Speaker 14: here ourselves. It's it's it's it's very troubling. The level 1609 01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:50,759 Speaker 14: of organization seems to be sporadic. You know, it's the Internet, 1610 01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:54,840 Speaker 14: it's it's what app The neighborhood groups show up when 1611 01:21:54,960 --> 01:21:57,080 Speaker 14: when they're alerted that there is ice there. But the 1612 01:21:57,200 --> 01:22:01,679 Speaker 14: judge ruled today that you have a right uh to film, 1613 01:22:01,840 --> 01:22:04,479 Speaker 14: you have a right to observe uh and and not 1614 01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:09,400 Speaker 14: be impeded uh in that you have a right, she said, 1615 01:22:09,400 --> 01:22:13,200 Speaker 14: to even follow, but not obstruct, not obstruct their vehicles 1616 01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 14: if you're in traffic, but the moment there is obstruction, 1617 01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:20,720 Speaker 14: then the rules will change if you begin interfering. And 1618 01:22:20,840 --> 01:22:24,519 Speaker 14: of course that's when things get messy, really messy, with 1619 01:22:24,840 --> 01:22:27,240 Speaker 14: a lot of people who may never have been UH 1620 01:22:27,800 --> 01:22:32,240 Speaker 14: trained to deal with crowd control under circumstances in which 1621 01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:36,280 Speaker 14: you know, the hostility I suspect is quite palpable people. 1622 01:22:36,720 --> 01:22:39,639 Speaker 14: You know, the agents know that they're not welcome, and 1623 01:22:39,680 --> 01:22:44,000 Speaker 14: they're being filmed uh in incredible stress on the people 1624 01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:46,600 Speaker 14: who've been sent there, And a lot of questions have 1625 01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:49,679 Speaker 14: been raised about their training and fairly, but a lot 1626 01:22:49,720 --> 01:22:52,120 Speaker 14: more questions have been raised about the lack of an 1627 01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:56,679 Speaker 14: investigation into the death of an American citizen. Well, true, 1628 01:22:57,120 --> 01:22:58,880 Speaker 14: I'm sorry, we don't want to we don't want to 1629 01:22:58,960 --> 01:22:59,599 Speaker 14: let that one go. 1630 01:22:59,720 --> 01:23:03,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, when we shouldn't, I mean, all the way around, 1631 01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:06,720 Speaker 1: you want it to be investigated and open in the 1632 01:23:06,840 --> 01:23:10,280 Speaker 1: daylight for everyone to see, so that you know, it's 1633 01:23:10,360 --> 01:23:14,679 Speaker 1: just bewildering where we are right now. I don't think honestly, 1634 01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:18,200 Speaker 1: and I'm a fairly independent minded person and more of 1635 01:23:18,360 --> 01:23:24,240 Speaker 1: a libertarian, but I don't think anybody wants law enforcement 1636 01:23:24,280 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 1: around doing the job without being identified. I don't think 1637 01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:33,599 Speaker 1: most people are happy at a time when you see 1638 01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:38,360 Speaker 1: around the world news stories of marauding gangs, be it 1639 01:23:38,720 --> 01:23:42,760 Speaker 1: enforcers for other regimes and other countries that we talk 1640 01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:45,160 Speaker 1: about as being our enemy or needing our help to 1641 01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:48,360 Speaker 1: help get them freedom and law enforcement on the streets 1642 01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:50,760 Speaker 1: from regard, and I have friends in law enforcement. This 1643 01:23:50,840 --> 01:23:54,960 Speaker 1: is not an anti law enforcement rant, but the idea 1644 01:23:55,040 --> 01:23:59,240 Speaker 1: that you can have law enforcement with firepower, with authority 1645 01:23:59,479 --> 01:24:04,800 Speaker 1: and immune unity, not necessarily always identifying themselves face is 1646 01:24:04,880 --> 01:24:07,120 Speaker 1: covered showing up in the middle of the night while 1647 01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:10,800 Speaker 1: you're on the job or at a school, regardless of 1648 01:24:10,840 --> 01:24:15,360 Speaker 1: the threat of docsing asking for people's papers to identify 1649 01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:18,040 Speaker 1: themselves to prove that you're a US citizen. A lot 1650 01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:20,880 Speaker 1: of people say, you know what, that's infringing upon my 1651 01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:23,320 Speaker 1: rights in my liberties, and who are they to ask 1652 01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:26,400 Speaker 1: me anything that's a tough place to be in. 1653 01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:32,080 Speaker 14: I think that sentiment that it's gone too far is 1654 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:36,240 Speaker 14: being reflected very very clearly in some of the recent 1655 01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:40,120 Speaker 14: polling that we see not necessarily objecting to the removal 1656 01:24:40,120 --> 01:24:40,840 Speaker 14: of illegals. 1657 01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:41,160 Speaker 10: Oh. 1658 01:24:41,479 --> 01:24:44,680 Speaker 14: The judges order tonight made it very plain you have 1659 01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:48,400 Speaker 14: a right to ask officers to identify themselves under what 1660 01:24:48,479 --> 01:24:51,360 Speaker 14: authority are they acting? You have a right to ask 1661 01:24:51,400 --> 01:24:54,880 Speaker 14: for a badge number. Her order will be a good 1662 01:24:55,479 --> 01:25:00,559 Speaker 14: checklist of instructions about rights that you do enjoy if 1663 01:25:00,600 --> 01:25:04,160 Speaker 14: it comes to a confrontation. But your point about being 1664 01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:11,640 Speaker 14: asked to prove your citizenship, that should chill Americans. You know, 1665 01:25:11,680 --> 01:25:14,960 Speaker 14: you've not had to carry your identification papers in this 1666 01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:21,480 Speaker 14: country since probably World War Two. That one is deeply 1667 01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:25,320 Speaker 14: troubling to people's center left and right. You know, the 1668 01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:29,360 Speaker 14: when you empower law enforcement, you arm them, you train them, 1669 01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:32,200 Speaker 14: there has to be there have to be rules, and 1670 01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:33,720 Speaker 14: there has to be accountability. 1671 01:25:34,240 --> 01:25:37,360 Speaker 1: It puts them there needs to be and I think 1672 01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:38,840 Speaker 1: most of the people that I know that are in 1673 01:25:38,920 --> 01:25:42,759 Speaker 1: law enforcement and first responders, et cetera, they will agree 1674 01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:45,240 Speaker 1: with that. And you put them in a really uncomfortable, 1675 01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:49,719 Speaker 1: compromised position in this but a lot of what we've seen, 1676 01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:52,080 Speaker 1: and it's hard if you're in that day after day 1677 01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:55,360 Speaker 1: getting yelled at it, and you know, whistles blown and 1678 01:25:55,360 --> 01:25:58,280 Speaker 1: in your face and saying all kinds of hateful stuff 1679 01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:00,840 Speaker 1: as you're trying to go about your work. And you 1680 01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:03,320 Speaker 1: know they need to be professional and let that roll 1681 01:26:03,360 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 1: off of them as they try to go about it. 1682 01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:10,200 Speaker 1: But it's a very disconcerting circumstance in which we're living. 1683 01:26:10,280 --> 01:26:12,519 Speaker 1: It's an odd disc. 1684 01:26:14,160 --> 01:26:17,680 Speaker 14: And law enforcement in Minneapolis and in the states Minnesota 1685 01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:21,120 Speaker 14: have been put in an even worse position. You know 1686 01:26:21,160 --> 01:26:24,520 Speaker 14: that they've been pushed aside. But when there's an emergency 1687 01:26:24,720 --> 01:26:27,400 Speaker 14: and you think ICE or someone is breaking you down 1688 01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:30,520 Speaker 14: your front door, they call the local police. 1689 01:26:30,320 --> 01:26:33,280 Speaker 1: Right, so then they one and if they're not already 1690 01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:36,599 Speaker 1: there working in concert with ICE, in the Border Patrol 1691 01:26:36,680 --> 01:26:40,160 Speaker 1: and whatever other federal agency alphabet soup is there, whether 1692 01:26:40,160 --> 01:26:43,479 Speaker 1: they're openly identifiable or not, which sometimes they're not, Which 1693 01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:45,800 Speaker 1: is the problem that I have because if somebody just 1694 01:26:45,920 --> 01:26:48,320 Speaker 1: rolls up to me while I'm driving down Montgomery Road 1695 01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:50,800 Speaker 1: or anywhere else in the tri State, and they may 1696 01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:52,840 Speaker 1: have blinking lights, but I don't know who the hell 1697 01:26:52,880 --> 01:26:55,479 Speaker 1: they are, and they're not you know, labeled as you know, 1698 01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 1: state trooper, County sheriff, Cincinnati Police, Daton Police, whatever else 1699 01:26:59,840 --> 01:27:02,840 Speaker 1: it is is I'm going to be very very much 1700 01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:07,240 Speaker 1: lacking in my willingness to engage them. The only difference 1701 01:27:07,320 --> 01:27:09,320 Speaker 1: is when they you know, they have firepower that they 1702 01:27:09,320 --> 01:27:11,160 Speaker 1: put in your face to show you they can end you. 1703 01:27:11,200 --> 01:27:14,320 Speaker 1: Which things get pretty serious. Whether it's a criminal or 1704 01:27:14,360 --> 01:27:16,519 Speaker 1: a cop trying to do their job. It's a bad, 1705 01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:19,559 Speaker 1: bad situation that we're navigating right now. I don't know 1706 01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:22,799 Speaker 1: the way about it. Curling, I wish I did skirling. 1707 01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:26,320 Speaker 14: How much trust has been lost and been eroded in 1708 01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:31,240 Speaker 14: this process? Yes, I think being skeptical of authority, that's 1709 01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:34,160 Speaker 14: an American tradition, you know, being asked to, you know, 1710 01:27:34,200 --> 01:27:35,480 Speaker 14: say what is your authority? 1711 01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:36,479 Speaker 5: Why are you here? 1712 01:27:37,320 --> 01:27:39,600 Speaker 14: You know, do you have paperwork? Do you have an 1713 01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:44,120 Speaker 14: arrest warrant? That that's every American's right. Those through the guidelines. 1714 01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:49,920 Speaker 14: We expect law enforcement to abide by the specific rules 1715 01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:53,160 Speaker 14: about masks. A couple of recent cases have tried to 1716 01:27:53,200 --> 01:27:56,519 Speaker 14: strike down local rules against that. That one will be 1717 01:27:56,560 --> 01:28:01,160 Speaker 14: litigated probably long after you know, this situation has been resolved. 1718 01:28:01,479 --> 01:28:05,240 Speaker 14: But that fundamental trust that law enforcement needs, and that 1719 01:28:05,320 --> 01:28:08,519 Speaker 14: the police in Minneapolis have been working their tales off 1720 01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:12,760 Speaker 14: since the George Floyd situation in twenty twenty to try 1721 01:28:12,800 --> 01:28:17,200 Speaker 14: to rebuild in the community. And it is just it's 1722 01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:21,160 Speaker 14: a law enforcement disaster across the board. 1723 01:28:21,600 --> 01:28:24,479 Speaker 1: I hope that this does not escalate. I'm in some 1724 01:28:24,520 --> 01:28:27,200 Speaker 1: ways surprised that it has not gotten worse sooner as 1725 01:28:27,280 --> 01:28:29,599 Speaker 1: this has moved on. And obviously a lot of it's 1726 01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:33,360 Speaker 1: made for TV, made for soundbites, made to deliberately instill 1727 01:28:33,439 --> 01:28:36,840 Speaker 1: fear and to polarize people. It's just the nature of 1728 01:28:37,200 --> 01:28:40,280 Speaker 1: I guess, the business of politic today. But it's troubling 1729 01:28:40,320 --> 01:28:43,160 Speaker 1: on the streets of this country. It shouldn't be that way, 1730 01:28:43,520 --> 01:28:45,240 Speaker 1: in my opinion. I wish we had more time, but 1731 01:28:45,280 --> 01:28:47,080 Speaker 1: we're out of it. Thank you for doing what you 1732 01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:49,040 Speaker 1: do and making time so late.
