1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: Space the Final Frontier. Well, I don't want to get 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: a suit, but oh I got so excited get out 3 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: of you and that nobody owns this Final Frontier space. Yeah, 4 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: I've been really getting into Star Chreck. Clearly excellent show, 5 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: really awesome human interpersonal relationship issues in a very amazing 6 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:23,120 Speaker 1: fun way. Which one though, all of them, all of them, 7 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: all of them? Oh well, they all have one thing 8 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 1: in common, the importance of the warp drive. So they 9 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: get around space. It's how they boldly go to places, etcetera. 10 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: I seriously don't want to get a suit and I 11 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: love that show. But what if there was a real 12 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 1: warp drive? A number of years ago we dug into 13 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: this concept because something had hit the news, something called 14 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: an e M drive. You guys remember that, I do 15 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: a little bit. But it's been a while since we've 16 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: recorded this, I think six years maybe. Um, So, you 17 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 1: know what, I don't want to spoil anything and I 18 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: don't remember. Uh so let's jump right in. What do 19 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: you say? From UFOs two Ghosts and Government cover Ups? 20 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 1: History is riddled with unexplained events. You can turn back 21 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: now or learn the stuff they don't want you to now. Hello, Welcome, 22 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: back to the show. My name is Matt. I am 23 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: Ben and we are here with our super producer Noel 24 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: a k A. Ghost Walker Brown a k A. Warp 25 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 1: level nine a k A. What else? Why not warp 26 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: level ten as well? I mean that's dangerous, that's like 27 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: super saying Noel Brown. Yes, it's true. And uh Before 28 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: we get started today, we want to thank those of 29 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: you who wrote in with some some fantastic feedback regarding 30 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: our earlier episode on Jade Helm. Oh. Yes, thank you 31 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,239 Speaker 1: for writing in. We got several interesting different perspectives that 32 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: were apart from our own perspectives on this and uh, man, 33 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: it's it's great to read your opinions and even these 34 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: your little insights. Especially. We had someone who is a 35 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: former soldier who wrote in. Yeah. We had several on 36 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: YouTube as well, some Facebook messages and tweets. We had 37 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 1: some people who live in the areas, yes, right, and 38 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: we had some updates, and we had you know, it's 39 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: interesting because we had several people who are saying, I 40 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: can assure you with absolute certainty that nothing at all 41 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: is going down. It's just sensationalism, which we asked about. 42 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: And then we had several people right in and say 43 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: I can assure you with absolute certainty that something is happening. Yeah, 44 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 1: And I think that that's kind of the space in 45 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: which we live. There's a lot of certainty out there, 46 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: but but not there's not a lot of evidence A 47 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: lot of times behind those either side of those statements, right, Yeah. Often, Uh, 48 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: certainty is like an opinion or a well this is 49 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: a family show, but you know what I mean. Uh. 50 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: So we we just wanted to h we just wanted 51 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: to thank everybody for checking that out. If you have 52 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: not seen or listen to our recent episodes on military 53 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: exercises and the one started in July here in the 54 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: US called jade Helm fifteen, then please do please do 55 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: avail yourself of it, check it out, let us know 56 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: what you think. Uh, today we are talking about something 57 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: completely different because you know, as we said, spoiler alert. Uh, 58 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: Matt and Noel and I have a few irons in 59 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: the fire. We've got some schemes cooking, and as a result, 60 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: we have been checking out some of our classic episodes, 61 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: moving them to a new channel. And this week we 62 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: did something that I really enjoyed at the time. Um, 63 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: and I I still am fascinated by it, Yes, alaptic energy, 64 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: the horonymous machine. Yeah, man, it's it's a cool idea. 65 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: And anytime we talk about free energy or somehow harnessing 66 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: energy that just exists in this Star Wars medic glarean 67 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: world that we live in apparently like radionics or gone. 68 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: I won't add Thetan's because technically, against spoiler alert, they 69 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:41,559 Speaker 1: are ghosts, yes, spirits. Yeah, yeah, I guess you're alien ghosts. Yes, 70 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: And well you know, perhaps one day we'll learn how 71 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: to harness them without because I man, I can't right 72 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: be able to harness the Thetan's inside each other. That's 73 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: that's interesting. Well, uh, now that now that we have 74 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: once again flirted with Litiga aation by the Church of 75 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: Scientology at least one time, it's in our contracts, let's 76 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: go ahead and just like a quick recap of what 77 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: this all optic energy is. He said, it's sort of 78 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 1: an ambient thing. It's supposed to be all around us, 79 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: and it can be focused through these devices, these hieronymous machines, 80 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: devices named after the guy who invented them, quote unquote T. 81 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: Galen Hronymous exactly fascinating character and interesting story. He was 82 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: a he was idolized by a sci fi editor at 83 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: the time back you know, fifties, forties, sixties, and uh, 84 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 1: he did a somewhere in there match, and this guy 85 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 1: Campbell took it a step further and said, not only 86 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 1: do these machines work, but because it's harnessing this unknown 87 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: power and listeners, I'm like pointing to my forehead like 88 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: a crazy person. Now I assume it's Uh. Campbell assumed 89 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: it was a psionic power of some sort of psychic ability. 90 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 1: And so Campbell argued that you didn't have to build 91 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: the device. You could just draw the schematic of the 92 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: diagram right and it would have the same effect. And 93 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: you could place things objects in certain areas of this 94 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: diagram on a piece of paper that you've drawn it out, 95 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 1: and you could somehow harnessed through that object like a 96 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: memory or a There are all kinds of things you 97 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: could do with this device with a piece of paper 98 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: and the diagram. And you know, with your your mind, 99 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: that's all your minds being being your own thing or 100 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: being the primary mover the engine here. Uh. Horonymous himself 101 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: objected to this, and and although he thought Campbell's heart 102 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: was in the right place, his intentions were good, YadA 103 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: YadA YadA. Uh. He believed that this guy had accidentally 104 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: set back this science of radionics by a century or 105 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: more because the way that he built these devices is 106 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: you would take a substance of some sort of sample, 107 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: and you would put it in this little tray or 108 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: receiving area, and then you would be able to um, 109 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: be able to affect that by modifying or or I 110 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: guess harvesting, collecting, and and focusing this uh radionic energy, 111 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: which is not proven, certainly not proven. Yeah, I don't 112 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: think it is out of the realm of possibilities, especially 113 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: you know, as we're starting to tackle what we're going 114 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: to tackle this episode, right, Yeah, there might be something there, um, 115 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: But you know, for now we we in no way 116 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: can prove this and nobody can I understand. And you know, 117 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: it is quite possible that we have yet to encounter 118 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: all forms of energy affecting the reality in which we live. 119 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: You know, it would be tremendously arrogant to say that 120 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: we have figured it all out. You know, we are 121 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: still in what future historians would likely call the dark Ages. 122 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: But but point being, like Horonymous, one interesting thing I 123 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: can't remember from made into the video, which you sure 124 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: watch if you haven't launched it yet. Uh, it's uh, 125 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: there's there's this quote he has that we mentioned earlier. 126 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: He's talking about setting back the science a hundred years 127 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: or something. He says that this is the thing though, Matt. 128 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: He says that those diagrams worked when Campbell did them. 129 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: They actually were horotomous machines because the guy used India Inc. 130 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 1: Which Horonomous said was conductive. I know, I can hear 131 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: the more skeptical people in our in our audience now 132 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 1: just as their eyebrows raise and their eyes roll. One 133 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 1: of them made it into the studio. Huh, but do 134 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: check it out. And this got us thinking. This concept 135 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: of a optic energy got us thinking to something that 136 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: you and I have looked at several times before, like 137 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,719 Speaker 1: free energy, or suppression of energy, or um or excuse me, 138 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 1: suppression of technology, alternative energy, zero point energy. All these 139 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 1: different propositions that we here get lauded and vilified and 140 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: uh mostly most often just not accepted by mainstream science. Today, 141 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about the newest version of that. 142 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: But before we get there, we have to ask a question. 143 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: I have to ask you a question, and it's it's 144 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: actually one of our our boss, our boss's favorite questions. 145 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: Uh so, our boss is a guy named Jason. He's 146 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: our ccio. And one of the questions you like to 147 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 1: ask people is what's your favorite Star Wars or Star 148 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: Trek or do you have one? I think I've addressed 149 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: this before on this show maybe, and it is Star Trek. However, 150 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: I did just get back from the Star Wars convention 151 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: and I was starting to turn a little bit star 152 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: Star Wars, starting to turn towards Star Wars, just because 153 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: when you're around that kind of fandom, I think it's 154 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: it's a bit infectious. Um, and especially when you're with 155 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: someone like Holly Fry, who is one of the one 156 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: of the she's an editor here I believe, and the 157 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: host of stuff you miss in history class. She was 158 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: with us and she is such an avid fan that 159 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: I was, man, I was getting pulled that direction. But 160 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 1: for me, the science of Star Trek, the it's a 161 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 1: bit I would say a little harder on the science, 162 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: and that it it sticks a little bit closer to 163 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: the known physics, although it does extrapolate a whole bunch 164 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: to get things like the warp drive. Yes, um, but 165 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: it's you know, it's it's trying to be as in 166 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: line with it as possible. And also the social sciences 167 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: aspect of Star Trek I think is stronger. Ah yeah, 168 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: the the post industrial society is in the argument in 169 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,839 Speaker 1: the there's a mysticism of course, the Star Wars right, 170 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: oh yeah, and and a lot I think I I 171 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,199 Speaker 1: have not I have not made a call on either 172 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: of those. Well, that's probably a smart idea because let's 173 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: just wait until what I'm gonna get. I'm gonna get 174 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: so much hate for saying that. And I'm sorry Star 175 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: Wars fans. I do love Star Wars. It's just not 176 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: the same. I love you Star Wars, but I'm in 177 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: love with Star Trek. That's exactly right, all right, But 178 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: nail on the head here, man, because if we're talking 179 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: about Star Trek, we're talking about the warp drive in here, 180 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: and and what like, what is a warp drive. Well, 181 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 1: it's a it's an engine for a spacecraft that would 182 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: allow the travel, allow the craft and the inhabitants everything 183 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: inside it to travel faster than light, so everyone in 184 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 1: the rest of the world. It's two million, seven thousand, 185 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 1: four hundred and fifty eight meters per second. Yeah, that 186 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 1: seems that seems like it might be dangerous for the 187 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: whole of a ship. I'm just saying, well, sure, I mean, 188 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: it's it's tough, and it's a theoretical engine, but it 189 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: was it's cantalized humanity since we solidified the underlying laws 190 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: of physics, and that's that's part of the problem with 191 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: the warp drive, right. Yeah, it's something that we've it's 192 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: a dream that we've had since then, right, and the 193 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: the thought of being able to achieve that, um man. 194 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: I think it's driven a lot of people in the 195 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: field right now, in the fields of physics, like the 196 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: that kind of dream. Yeah. And even before we really 197 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: had codified what would become the laws of modern physics 198 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: as we understand them today, in UH, there were numerous 199 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: people who were, you know, building religions based off stuff 200 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: seeing in the heavens, writing stories about going there, staring 201 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: into the sky, inventing UH different means of trying to 202 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: discern what was happening in our nearest celestial neighbors. But 203 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: the way we get there, as always or often has 204 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: UH in almost every single case, alluded us except for 205 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: or at least, and we're talking about manned exploration here. 206 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: That's that's one of the big deals. But the laws 207 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: of physics have been around for a long time. Philosophers 208 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: knew about these, other people explored them due to these slow, 209 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: steady grind of history. Uh, we don't we you know, 210 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: we can't say with certitude who actually discovered these things first, 211 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: because maybe a record of them doesn't remain sure. But 212 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 1: what we can say is that the credit for the 213 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: codification of like the laws of motion goes to a 214 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: guy named Isaac Newton, for three laws he created. That's right, 215 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: the three laws. So the first one that hopefully you 216 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: remember these from school, guys, I vaguely do. Um. The 217 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: first law is that every object object will remain at 218 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless 219 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: it is compelled to change it's state by the actions 220 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: of some internal force. So it's gonna keep going where 221 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: it's going or staying where it's staying unless something else 222 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: comes in and knocks it. Um. The second law concerns 223 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: how the velocity of an object changes when it's subjected 224 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: to an external force, so it slows down, speeds up, 225 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: these kind of things. And the third law, This is 226 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 1: probably the most famous law, is that for every action, 227 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: there is an equal and opposite reaction. And that's you know, 228 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: the idea of when a ball hits another ball that 229 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: have roughly the same mass, you're gonna see the ball 230 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: that gets hit move in the opposite direction that the 231 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: ball of which hit it. Yes, right, exactly. And I 232 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: think he's these laws so far have not been disproven, right, No, 233 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: not yet, not yet, And it's okay to say, it's 234 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: okay to add not yet on there, because we could 235 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: also add probably never will be disproving. But I think 236 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: I think it's best to hedge our bets and say 237 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: they haven't been disproven yet as far as we know, 238 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: at least on Earth. We're like, we're pretty sure that's 239 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: those are the rules. But we are faced with again 240 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: the relative impossibility of a warp drive. At least the 241 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: appearance of impossibility pales in comparison to the benefit that 242 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: this kind of technology could give us. I mean, imagine, okay, 243 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: if for the Star Trek fans out there and for 244 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: the Star Wars fans, just imagine every time you saw 245 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: one of those long pans of the inky black and 246 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: and the tiny pinpricks of stars. Right. Uh. This illustration 247 00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: of the sheer possibly unknowable size of the universe, uh, 248 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: not to mention the space in between heavenly objects, means 249 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: that human beings cannot travel to another star within a 250 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: person's lifetime, not with their current technology. Right. Yeah, and 251 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: if you think about it, we're still, let's be a 252 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: little cross about it, we're still like taking the liquefied 253 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: remains of dinosaurs and making them explode to power space travel. Yeah, 254 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: if oil is actually made out of dinosaurs, bend well, 255 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: the majority of oil is not made out of dinosaurs, 256 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: as you know. No, but that's a that's a crazy point. 257 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: That's that's the way we are still getting out of 258 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: our atmosphere. Yeah, into uh near or near Earth orbit, 259 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: uh to the Moon, or or sending even um rovers 260 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: into you know, two Mars. Right. So this gives us 261 00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: a few options then for any uh any intrepid human 262 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 1: beings or human groups wishing to travel beyond the stars 263 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: because they got swept up in that Carl Sagan speech. Right, Well, okay, 264 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: so I've got the first option. I don't know if 265 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: it's really an option. I guess it is an option. 266 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: Just give up, just give up, just just say put 267 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 1: it down, just you know, go back watch an episode 268 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 1: of Daredevil and that's it. Well now, or fixed problems 269 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 1: that exist on Earth. Oh now, that's interesting. So it's 270 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: not it's maybe it's maybe it's a reprior prioritization. That's 271 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: an interesting idea. Um. I think it's probably a bad one. 272 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: But that's okay. What else can we do? Oh, this 273 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,880 Speaker 1: is exciting. We could try to build gargantuan, gigantic arcs 274 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: uh and put a little piece of Earth in their 275 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: human beings, animals, plants have a biome that's slowly crawling 276 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 1: through the ink towards some alien destination over millions of years, 277 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: while entire civilizations and species rise and fall like a 278 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: starship Earth kind of thing, like a little miniature version. Yeah, 279 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: do you do you when you envision this, do you 280 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: envision a spherical thing? Or do you envision like a 281 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: enterprise type thing that it's got all the like it 282 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: looks like a ship, it's just got the interior of Earth. 283 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 1: I envisioned an inevitable breakdown. Oh sorry, I don't think Yeah, 284 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think we could do it. I'm 285 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: pretty skeptical. Maybe it's just a science fiction but there 286 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 1: there's so many problems that we have not thought of, 287 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 1: Like what happens to a what happens to a woman 288 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: who has has a child? Right, conceives a child and 289 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: then bears it to term in space and repeat that over? 290 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,360 Speaker 1: How many generations are you speaking of an evolution of 291 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: what a human would become in that kind of environment. Well, 292 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: you know, over over that span of time, it might 293 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: be likely that certain traits would select for evolution. And 294 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: I guess it also depends on how many people are there, 295 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: what kind of gene pool are we talking about? But 296 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: I was I was just talking about the ability to 297 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: survive and reproduce successfully, because what happens for the first 298 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: generation of children growing up in space will there uh? 299 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,239 Speaker 1: Will their limbs their limbs right, will probably not be 300 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: as developed unless there some sort of continually functioning gravity, right, uh? 301 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: And who knows if they'll be able to reproduce. Oh man, 302 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: So that's that's one way, clearly not perfect, clearly not perfect. 303 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 1: All right, Well, is there any other thing we could do? Well? 304 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 1: Here is? Here is I think our best and closest option. 305 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 1: What's that? Just let's devise different way to travel through space, right, 306 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: and also also a different way to get to space 307 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 1: or you know, to outer space to escape Earth's gravity. So, so, 308 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,159 Speaker 1: what's all this that we've been hearing for the past 309 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: what year three about people discovering a new kind of 310 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: warp drive. Well, you know, we've talked about the some 311 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: of the possibilities of a plasma engine. There have been 312 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 1: a lot of stories that you'll find on online about 313 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 1: different ideas for how to propel a ship once you're 314 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: once you're in space. And that's where this most recent 315 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 1: one comes in, the m drive. And uh, this thing 316 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: is fascinating in the least it's a prototype rocket, is it? 317 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 1: You know? Is it the real life warp drive? Maybe, 318 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: at least that's the way it's being described. It's this 319 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 1: gentleman named Roger Shawyer or Sawyer. And here's the thing. 320 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: He claims his engine generates thrust by bouncing microwaves around 321 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: inside this enclosed metal funnel. And since there's no mass 322 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: or energy emerging from the engine, he claims that this 323 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 1: thing can propel itself just through that, just through bouncing 324 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: microwaves around inside this thing. And and if that's true, 325 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: this would violate Uh, some fundamental laws of physics. Yeah, 326 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: specifically the third one. Uh, kind of Isaac Newton's breakout 327 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: single on his pp of the Laws of Motion, which 328 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 1: was the the third law about action and reaction. According 329 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: to a gentleman named Brian Coberlin cobra Line, who is 330 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: an astrophysicist at interview by space dot com, Uh, that 331 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: that's one of the primary problems with this. It's what Shaw, 332 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: you're the scientific Shuyres saying, is that he is creating 333 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: propulsion without a propellant, a car without gas. Right, Yes, 334 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: there's there would still be energy expended, right because you 335 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: if you wanted to shoot microwaves into a thing, you're 336 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: gonna have the power whatever is firing the microwaves. Sure, yeah, 337 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 1: and that, but they're saying that the thrust they're getting 338 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: when none exists should be there and there's nothing, there's 339 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: not a reaction to the action. I guess. So people 340 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 1: have attempted several tests of this device, and um, listeners, 341 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: you've probably heard the headlines or read something about NASA 342 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: testing it, right, Yeah, well, well kind of NASA, I 343 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: guess kind of tested it. Because we know NASA is 344 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: a massive organization all kinds of different moving parts, different 345 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: parts of NASA UM all these departments. But one of 346 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 1: the departments is this tinyal outfit called Eagle Works. And uh, 347 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: the staff is about five scientists who tests all kinds 348 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:13,239 Speaker 1: of unorthodox pieces of technology propulsion methods. It's headed up 349 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:18,640 Speaker 1: by Dr Harold sunny White. Yep. And this group published 350 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: a paper with this drop dead sexy title. Here it goes, 351 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: anomalous thrust production from an RF test device measured on 352 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: a low thrust torsion pendulum. Is he getting hot in here? So? Anyway, 353 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: this was back in and it was detailing experiments that 354 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: were conducted over a series of eight days in August 355 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:48,399 Speaker 1: of Now here's the question, what's the anomaly that's occurring here? Well, 356 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: according to the reports these engines, by the way, there 357 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: are more than one. There's more than one m drive. Uh, 358 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: they appear to work on some small level. So under 359 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 1: testing they generate it anywhere from fifty to seventy micronewtons 360 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: of I guess energy. As Professor Ethan Stiegel notes, this 361 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: is less than the weight of a snowflake, which doesn't 362 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: seem very substantial to me. A guy sitting in a 363 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: room in Atlanta, Georgia that doesn't know much at all 364 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: about physics. You will also hear. You'll also hear that 365 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: in these tests, uh, fifty to seventy micro newtons is 366 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 1: small enough that it might not clear the rate of 367 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: error in measuring it. Uh. So well, here's the here's 368 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: the thing though, even if it is that minuscule, perhaps 369 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 1: it is just an error in testing. But if it's not, 370 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: they seem to be getting this energy from nothing, no fuel. Right. 371 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: It's an idea that will send quite a few physicists 372 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 1: into a livid huff every time you hear it. This 373 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: is not the first time someone in and it and 374 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: M drive or something. In China, female scientists name while 375 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: one young I believe I am mispronouncing that, and I 376 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:13,640 Speaker 1: am sorry. Dr uh. She led a team of folks 377 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: and claimed they had done it in two thousand and twelve. Uh. 378 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 1: And then they were if you look at their papers, 379 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: it's pretty technical. But they also they were also measuring 380 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: temperature as well. Um. And then a guy named Guido 381 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 1: Feda claims to have invented one too. He called it 382 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: they can Kenna drive. And this is the one that 383 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 1: NASA Eagle Works tested. There's a difficulty here because the 384 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: groups did not receive the same consistent results, and they 385 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 1: don't agree why it's happening, and no one knows what's happening. 386 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: And a lot of people, uh, a lot of a 387 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 1: lot of people are coming out of the woodwork to say, 388 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 1: you know, this is utter bunk um and and and 389 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: it's strange sometimes because again when one has to be 390 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: rigorous when measuring these sorts of things and have a 391 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: decent methodology, but you also find like a lot of 392 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:19,239 Speaker 1: character attacks where people are people are saying, people are 393 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: making the assumption that someone is automatically misleading the public, 394 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 1: which I think is um. I think it's it's um funny, 395 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: but I don't think it's professional. Absolutely. It's that same 396 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: thing that happens when let's say the bones of physics 397 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: are being challenged, right, because everyone in that field knows 398 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 1: physics and they know that this is the law and 399 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: this is how it works. And when someone comes along 400 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: and says, well, perhaps that's not how it works, right, 401 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: that's very dangerous, uh to most of the establishment, I 402 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: would say, um. But the great thing about science is 403 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: that they there's an understanding that change must occur or 404 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: at least some If new information comes in that is valid, 405 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,400 Speaker 1: then the whole system can integrate that, right. Yeah, yeah, 406 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: and that that's a great point. And the more extraordinary 407 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: claim is the more extraordinary the evidence should be supporting it. 408 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: That's what a lot of people that That's what a 409 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 1: a lot of people would argue. Right. So then for 410 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,919 Speaker 1: something like this been it would need a lot of 411 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: money to be basically injected in so that there could 412 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:30,199 Speaker 1: be vigorous testing of some device like this to the 413 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 1: point where you could either outright prove that this is 414 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: happening or not. But it seems as though, I mean 415 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,400 Speaker 1: it's kind of on the fringe, this little small group 416 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: of NASA that's being tested that's testing it, sure, because 417 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: you don't want to spend a whole lot of money 418 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 1: on something that is probably nothing. Right. Well, there, let's 419 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: keep in mind that NASA Eagle works. Their task is 420 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: to investigate these things that have enormous risk in terms 421 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,640 Speaker 1: of costs and waste of money. And potentially they're kind 422 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: of they're playing a lottery in R and D lottery 423 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: because potentially there there could be some huge benefit. But 424 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: let's go ahead and move to some pros and cons 425 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: about this, So we said, the skeptics have some massive 426 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 1: problems with this. What are some of the cons Well, 427 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 1: the first one is fairly obvious. Why are the results 428 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: of testing these M drives consistent? If they if you're 429 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: using a technology that is emerging like this, and you 430 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: have you could lock down the variables, then you should 431 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: get the same results every time, or very similar results. Uh. Yeah. 432 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: And then we also know that they were saying, of course, 433 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: are the biases of the scientists skewing the test? Uh? 434 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: You can read a piece on Forbes about the M 435 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: drive by a seagull, I think, the guy we mentioned earlier, 436 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: and in that you can tell it reads as though Seagull, 437 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 1: this professor seagull has just had it up to an 438 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: over year and down the street and up the road 439 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: with with this thing, because it sounds like an angry 440 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: person on this um. And he makes some he makes 441 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,719 Speaker 1: some very valid points too. He says, why aren't they 442 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: the same results? How do we know that something else 443 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: didn't come in? But he also said, uh, the guy 444 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: in charge of NASA Eagle Works is no, isn't I 445 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: think the phrase he uses is notorious for his support 446 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: of unorthodox ideas that's great, that's exactly what that group needs. 447 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: Oh and here's another thing we should at least think about, 448 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: is it is it a possibility that these tests were 449 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: somehow compromised? Right? Yeah, yeah, we're because what what we 450 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: mean when we say compromises was there some sort of 451 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: intervening variable that was not found otherwise Like the first 452 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: test that NASA Eagle Works did with feta's engine, I 453 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: believe they they tested it, but they didn't test it 454 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: in a vacuum. So people respond on it by saying, well, 455 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 1: of course it appears like something's happening. It was somehow 456 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: receiving some input from the surrounding environment. So they responded 457 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: by testing it in a vacuum. But NASA, who I 458 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: feel bad for man because you know, NASA has to 459 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: dodge these overly hype science journalists, I'm sure constantly yes, 460 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: with the BuzzFeed titles, right right, NASA reporters hate this shuttle. 461 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 1: Find out why? Yeah, they were. They were quick to say, like, 462 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 1: this organization is not researching a warp drive, because that 463 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: was the headline, right, But that that's not the only 464 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 1: other con. There's a there's another big con. Right, Well, yeah, 465 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: this this wouldn't in no way be a warp drive. Um, 466 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: it might get people, you know, to the Moon in 467 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: a few hours of it worked, let's say, but you're 468 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: not going to reach the kind of speeds that you 469 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: would need to go warp speed or faster than the 470 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: speed of light. Right. Um, yeah, that that's not gonna happen. 471 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: You won't be able to get to Pluto, let's say, 472 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: just to go out and argue at it that it's 473 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: it is or is not a planet, and then get back, 474 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: you know, the same day. Yeah, and this this has 475 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: been it's got to be disappointing to a lot of people. 476 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: Should read this headline about warp drive, But it's not. 477 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: It wouldn't be warp drive the way that Star Trek 478 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: is warp drive. You're not You're not going to some 479 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 1: infinite velocity. And at this point, even if humanity did 480 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: possess some kind of engine or thing that was capable 481 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: of this sort of propulsion, we do not have the 482 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 1: material science to build anything that could withstand it. How 483 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: do you how do you move anything else with that drive? 484 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 1: How does the drive even go that fast? Now we 485 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: would just be shooting an engine by itself into space. 486 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: And maybe it can't. Maybe we find it from an 487 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: alien civilization, and maybe they couldn't build anything that could 488 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: use this as an engine. So maybe, uh, the entire 489 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: story of civilization in this galaxy is people shooting around 490 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: this engine because everything we build around it falls apart. 491 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: Guess what, Well, I think it's time to write a 492 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 1: short story. That's a pretty good idea, isn't it. Yeah, well, 493 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see if it works out and watch. 494 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: But there are pros. I know it sounds very negative 495 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: right now, but there are pros. Uh, there may well 496 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: be something occurring here because these three groups testing the 497 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: same pretty much the same device have found something, right, 498 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: or they say they found something. There appears to be 499 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: something And perhaps we don't use this device exactly how 500 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: it's built now perhaps uh, you know, like we said, 501 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: perhaps it's nothing and we can just throw it in 502 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: the trash and forget about it. The other people inventing 503 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: it can move on to something else. But if there 504 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: is something there, we could use that as a starting point. 505 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: Right And this, this concept of people accidentally discovering a 506 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: warp drive sounds sounds pretty cool, right, But what I 507 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: think we would end up looking at is uh finding 508 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: a small I don't know, a little discrepancy, a glitch 509 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: in the matrix. That's how a lot of big things start. Right. 510 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 1: We see that waters tends to bend light. We see 511 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: these tiny things in the world around us, and if 512 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: we can just obsess over them enough and ask the 513 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 1: right questions, then eventually we can arrive um at amazing realizations. 514 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 1: And and there's there's something inspiring in that. But let's 515 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: be honest, and I know our family show, but let's 516 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: be honest, that's a huge pain in the ass. Yeah, 517 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: it's a lot of time, and it's a lot of money, 518 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: and we'd like to know what you guys think about it. 519 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 1: If you'd like to hear some more technical information about this, 520 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: then we are have good news for you because our 521 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:08,359 Speaker 1: friends over at Forward Thinking, UM, all three of whom 522 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: have made an appearance on our show at some point 523 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: or another. That is true. Yeah, so the same the 524 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: same crew, Joe, Jonathan and Lauren Uh. They have an 525 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 1: episode on the M Drive right now that you can 526 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 1: go check out as well. UM, we hope you enjoy it. 527 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 1: We have some other stuff like we talked about and 528 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 1: sloptic energy and radionics and we talked a little bit 529 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: about jade Helm. But before we go, we would like 530 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 1: to do a little bit of listener mail. Our first 531 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,959 Speaker 1: message comes from Marty and he says, Hi, Matt and Ben, 532 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 1: have you ever done a show on televisions and other 533 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: equipment in our homes and their ability to spy on us? 534 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: I think I've watched most of your shows and I 535 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: don't remember one on that. Please forgive me if I 536 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 1: missed it. Oh, sir, You're forgiven either way. Do not. 537 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: You do not need forgiveness from us for any reason, 538 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 1: but please watch the rest of our videos. Okay, So, 539 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: as I'm typing this, I'm also wondering about the newer 540 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: vehicles and their surveillance abilities. Oh, he's putting stuff together, 541 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 1: Martina's or is that the stuff they don't want us 542 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: to know. We all know that our phone and emails 543 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 1: and texts are being watched by the powers that run 544 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: our lives and dictate what we can or cannot do 545 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 1: or have, all for the security of the corporation we 546 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: live in. Or maybe it's just for the security of 547 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,439 Speaker 1: the elite that runs the corporation we live in. Yeah, 548 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 1: that sounds more like it. I like this Marty guy, 549 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 1: he's interesting. Uh anyway, just something to think about. Keep 550 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: up the good work as long as the powers that 551 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: be allow you to do so well. So uh, you know, Marty, 552 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: I I think that's a very good point because this 553 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: is something that we've talked about for and Matt. You know, 554 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,880 Speaker 1: this is a huge there's a huge soap oox for me. 555 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 1: What what do you have? I don't want to well, 556 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 1: I will just say that I have not upgraded my 557 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 1: television for a long time since since smart TVs have 558 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: been around. I've got tape on my front facing camera 559 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: on my phone. Um, I'm terrified about my vehicle being 560 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 1: made in two thousand four, which is I think right 561 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 1: around the the pass the cutoff date for when your 562 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: car can be hacked easily. Um. So yeah, I live. 563 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 1: I live in this guy's world. I understand what Marty's saying, Like, 564 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: it's it's scary how much surveillance occurs on each human 565 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: being at all times. You're the good news is your 566 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: car can your car specifically that I think could only 567 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 1: really be hacked if someone had direct access to the ECU. 568 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 1: They'd have to plug in. Yes, it's in that weird 569 00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,879 Speaker 1: middle ground. Yeah, with the e C you can be hacked. 570 00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: But yeah you can't like the new Mercedes, you couldn't 571 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: somehow remotely get into the computer. I hope. Um, wait 572 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 1: till check out the stuff at def Con. Right, that's 573 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 1: usually find that out. And we've done some episodes on 574 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 1: hacking here at how stuff works in general. We've done 575 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 1: some episodes on car hacking. Here is the here. Here's 576 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: why this is such a great and frightening point, Marty, 577 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: because the you'll remember, maybe I don't know how old 578 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 1: or young you are, but you you probably remember how 579 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 1: for years people would say this is paranoia. Who could 580 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: possibly be that important that we would do that? And 581 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 1: that makes a little bit more sense before the age, 582 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 1: before the computer age, honestly, because back during for instance, 583 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: back during uh the civil rights era, right when people 584 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: agitating for equal rights as human beings in the US 585 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: were doggedly pursued with wire tapping and with letter tampering 586 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 1: and things like that. That took concerted physical effort. But 587 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: what happened to you to be in the room next 588 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 1: to the person having a meeting and literally tapped through 589 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: the wall. Right, Yeah, you had to find agent, You 590 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: had to have feet on the ground, and even if 591 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: you were in the headquarters, you were still like mailing 592 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 1: people stuff and making making phone calls on landline phones. 593 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: What what I'm saying here is that we encountered a 594 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 1: gift and accursive sorts as a as a species in 595 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: the AGA, in the computer age, the cost of information, 596 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 1: and let's measure that by the money it takes you 597 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 1: to send a message somewhere or the time it takes 598 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: for that message to travel. Both of those reduced. Is 599 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 1: now it is now cheaper to talk to anyone than 600 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 1: it has ever been for and maybe ever will be again. 601 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: But with that means it's cheaper too. It's easier to 602 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: maybe that'd be a better word. It's easier to collect 603 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: more stuff. You don't have to wait and intercept physical mail. 604 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,760 Speaker 1: You just have to have a shunt in a room, 605 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: in a cell phone or an I s P provider, right, 606 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 1: and that and that shunt goes directly to a collection 607 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: warehouse somewhere, And it's just hoarding that people might not 608 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: ever look at information hoarders. Yeah, I would love to 609 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 1: see there's like one episode and then we would get canceled. 610 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:36,439 Speaker 1: But but this this thing is it's not as it's 611 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:40,839 Speaker 1: not as crazy as so many people one wanted it 612 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: to sound. And and Marty, you might I think you 613 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: might enjoy how many of the people who said this was, 614 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 1: you know, some bizarro dystopian fantasy now have all of 615 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 1: a sudden switched so quickly to say, oh, yeah, well 616 00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,840 Speaker 1: everybody knew that. Yeah, you when you were the ones 617 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: saying it was crazy. But that's just you know, that's 618 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 1: a cognitive dissonance, right. Sure, people are very good, uh, 619 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 1: people are very good curators of their memories, especially at 620 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 1: the times when they they wish they had done something different. 621 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: But but we see this happening in video game consoles. 622 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: And I think it's an excellent question about cars because 623 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: the monitoring for cars is going to increase at a 624 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: faster pace than many other things, partly because it's going 625 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:35,280 Speaker 1: to catch up to current technology, and partially because there 626 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:40,359 Speaker 1: is a the push toward autonomous cars means they're gonna 627 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: leap frog over a lot of earlier surveillance technology. Um, 628 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: partially for insurance purposes, a lot of it. Did you 629 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: see that article, um, Marty, maybe you saw to the 630 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:54,280 Speaker 1: there's an article about Google's driverless cars and a number 631 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: of accidents that they've been involved in. Was that three? 632 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 1: It was eleven? I think oh to one point seven 633 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 1: million miles traveled, and I don't I don't know if 634 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: I'm completely correct, but I leave I believe that one 635 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 1: million of those miles approximately were done completely driverless, and 636 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,439 Speaker 1: I think seven of the accidents happened during that time. 637 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 1: But it never ever was it the autonomous cars fault. 638 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 1: There was a person. There's always like another driver on 639 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,360 Speaker 1: the road where I know at least three times it 640 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 1: was the laws that in states that allow for autonomous 641 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: testing like this, they just to be clear, they do 642 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: still have to have a driver engineer in the car 643 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: sitting in driver's seat. They're just not driving ideally. And 644 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 1: I guess seven times they tried. No, I'm I am kidding. 645 00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: I hope everybody's fine, but but yeah, you're right, Marty, 646 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 1: And I've got a question for you. We'd like to 647 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: hear back from you on this. Uh do you think 648 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: that will be eventually illegal to drive a car manually? 649 00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: And if so when? Wow? Will it ever be illegal 650 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 1: to have the camera on whatever device you're working on, 651 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 1: like your computer or your television taped over it turned 652 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 1: off whatever be illegal to not have it on. Will 653 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: you get fined if you close your eyes? Right? Black 654 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:18,320 Speaker 1: mirror reference? All right, we'll do one more letter because 655 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,759 Speaker 1: I apparently had to go on a monologue. All right, 656 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 1: So Jimmy from l A writes to us and says, hey, 657 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: Ben and Matt, thanks for the outstanding work. Let's address 658 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 1: Jade Helm fifteen. As a former soldier, joint operation training 659 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 1: was common, usually conducted every six months. The reason for 660 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 1: the training was to get multiple units to communicate a 661 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 1: maneuver effectively during tactical operations. When I was overseas in 662 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:45,360 Speaker 1: the early days of Operation Rocky Freedom, I witnessed units 663 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:48,879 Speaker 1: accidentally shoot each other and moved to unfortified positions under 664 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 1: the command of brigade commanders. The results were disastrous by 665 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,720 Speaker 1: the loss of American and I Rocky lives. The training 666 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,799 Speaker 1: was supposed to quell officers egos and get them to 667 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 1: work in unison. Many officers, lieutenant colonels and colonels were 668 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: jocking for general's promotion. The orders from these promotion crazed 669 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 1: officers was getting many soldiers killed by aggressive operations and 670 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: lack of cooperative playing between the units in the quest 671 00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 1: for advancing their resumes. The paranoia, in my opinion, and 672 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 1: he's talking about about Jade Helm here was caused by 673 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 1: the Texas governor giving validation to the right wing conspiracy 674 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 1: theoristic accusations and the dispatch of the National Guard a 675 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 1: waste of taxpayer money. Again, thanks for the show, Keep 676 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,880 Speaker 1: up the good work. Best regards, Jimmy from l A. 677 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: And he has a PS question too. He says, is 678 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 1: the new format for the new year, uh to make 679 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: less traditional videos, more logs and podcasts. Oh okay, Well, 680 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 1: so that's really interesting to get that insight. And like 681 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:52,799 Speaker 1: we were saying at the top of the show, we 682 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:58,800 Speaker 1: were getting all kinds of insights from different, uh, different perspectives. Um. 683 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 1: That is something I've never thought about before. The internal Um. Yeah, 684 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 1: the competition amongst military members. M hmm. You know, I 685 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 1: I completely get this too. We know that there is 686 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 1: a huge necessity for these kinds of things, but I 687 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 1: don't know if a lot of people think about what 688 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: would happen if you just had a poorly trained military 689 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 1: just dropped off in some place, given a tank, given 690 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:34,359 Speaker 1: some more armored vehicles. In this city, we've seen some 691 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 1: examples of that with different groups Um, I don't. I 692 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: don't know what you would label them, either label them 693 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 1: insurgents or freedom fighters depending on which side drawn. But 694 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:48,359 Speaker 1: small small armies that are made up of people who 695 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 1: are just fighting in let's say their hometown and their 696 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 1: home state, UM, like in everywhere, like all over the 697 00:44:56,600 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 1: we've been seeing it more and more. Unfortunately, UM, we're 698 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 1: or you just have people with weaponry that perhaps are 699 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: not trained with that weaponry and we'll see accidents or 700 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 1: you know, an RPG goes off in the friendly fire, 701 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 1: or have we just been hearing more about it? Um? 702 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 1: And also Jimmy, I I am on the same page 703 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 1: with you at least about the cause of the paranoia 704 00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:25,800 Speaker 1: regarding jade Helm. Again, I don't know what's going to happen, 705 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,799 Speaker 1: Like I don't know what kind of exercises are going 706 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:30,800 Speaker 1: to be conducted and what the effect is going to 707 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: be on the local population right when if you drive 708 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 1: somewhere and the roads are closed or something. But I 709 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 1: do see, I do see point here to respond to 710 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:44,800 Speaker 1: with the Texas National Guard. That's what That's what Jimmy's 711 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: mentioning in his letter. If you guys recall in our 712 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 1: videos in our audio about Jade Helm. We talked about 713 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 1: the the relative autonomy of the Texas military forces, right 714 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 1: and the national card being called in made some people 715 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: feel that the state level governance of Texas did not 716 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,399 Speaker 1: trust the federal level governance of the US. But then 717 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 1: I think there was somebody who it was either on 718 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 1: YouTube or email it also written in and said, well, 719 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:22,960 Speaker 1: this is part of a normal reserve operation. They're they're 720 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,359 Speaker 1: mobilized to be on reserve the same way they would 721 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 1: be if something was actually going down. So I'm I'm 722 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 1: not sure which, I'm not sure which it is, but 723 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 1: I'd love to hear from some listeners on that. And 724 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,760 Speaker 1: that I've got to toss the question to you regarding 725 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 1: the uh question about less traditional videos, more vlogs, et cetera. Okay, Yeah, 726 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 1: so our show has been evolving ever since it's come out. 727 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: It's very different from our first CFR episode anything. It's 728 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 1: always a work in progress. Oh yeah, sure, and and 729 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,359 Speaker 1: we're trying to make improvements. That's really what we're doing. 730 00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 1: We're listening to feedback, We're kind of seeing what works 731 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,839 Speaker 1: and what does in our on our end, and you know, 732 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 1: I think we're coming up with a a better version 733 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:10,919 Speaker 1: of our show right now. Yeah, we're also we've we've 734 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 1: still got the not just the classic episodes, but we've 735 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:18,319 Speaker 1: been looking at case by case basis stuff too, Like 736 00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,720 Speaker 1: there's some stuff that where the story is better told 737 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 1: to the old format. Uh, there are a few things 738 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 1: that sometimes for ethical considerations, we are not going to 739 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 1: do as an old as an old style format thing 740 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 1: like there's um there, you know there there's some very 741 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 1: messed up things in the world that are better suited 742 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,839 Speaker 1: as an audio podcast perhaps, yes. And and also there 743 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 1: are several things that we've tried to cover that we 744 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 1: just can't find footage for um. And you know, rather 745 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,279 Speaker 1: than make an episode that just has stock images all 746 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 1: over it from videoblox or somewhere else. Um, we we 747 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 1: think it works better, um when it's kind of told 748 00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:05,360 Speaker 1: like a story. Yeah, and we we know that there's 749 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 1: we see the division sometimes on on YouTube comments especially, 750 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 1: and we we appreciate the support as we move forward. 751 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:18,319 Speaker 1: I think you know, the first the first couple of 752 00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:24,160 Speaker 1: blogs we did, we're well intentioned, but we'll see frs. 753 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 1: You know, that's what we do. Yeah, and we're still 754 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:34,319 Speaker 1: learning and hopefully we're learning stuff that is worthwhile for 755 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 1: this show. This time we talked about another current event 756 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:41,359 Speaker 1: which we're going to have to come back and check 757 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 1: on when we hear some of the final verdicts about 758 00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:48,360 Speaker 1: the e M drive. Um, it might disappear from the 759 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: news for a few years the way it did in 760 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:55,879 Speaker 1: when the Chinese team first reported it. But it might 761 00:48:55,920 --> 00:49:00,160 Speaker 1: turn out to be of halfways stars or oh or 762 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:04,520 Speaker 1: just a very simple variable that we missed. But I'll 763 00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:07,879 Speaker 1: tell you one thing that so fascinates me about all 764 00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 1: this stuff. Man, I'm one of those suckers for that 765 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:17,360 Speaker 1: Sagan speech. I'm totally on board about going to the stars. 766 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,280 Speaker 1: I would sign up, and you know, I knew Mars, 767 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,840 Speaker 1: the Mars one thing was probably going to be a scam. 768 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:27,280 Speaker 1: But did I apply? Yeah? I did. And I thought 769 00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 1: it was a very awkward conversation to have with like 770 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 1: family or dating partners to say, um, oh, hey, what 771 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:37,399 Speaker 1: are you doing. I'm signing up for a one way 772 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 1: trip to space? Oh all right, well then I'll just 773 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:44,440 Speaker 1: you know, right, yeah, I guess I'm going to Moms 774 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:49,040 Speaker 1: by myself. But but yeah, I I think that it 775 00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 1: is an important thing for humanity to do. I don't 776 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:56,200 Speaker 1: know if it will occur in our lifetimes or even 777 00:49:56,600 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 1: even if we'll have a colony on the moon. But um, 778 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:03,440 Speaker 1: I keep a sharp eye on anything that might further 779 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:05,960 Speaker 1: that goal. What about you, man, what do you think 780 00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 1: about this whole engine? I am hopeful, I mean this 781 00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:12,680 Speaker 1: this engine, I don't I don't think much is gonna 782 00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 1: come out of it. But I am hopeful though that 783 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:19,440 Speaker 1: either the some of the plasma propulsion systems or some 784 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 1: other system, including perhaps a space elevator, are going to 785 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:26,680 Speaker 1: work in combination to get us to a point where 786 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:31,560 Speaker 1: we can, you know, turn the moon into a death star, right, 787 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 1: hopefully a lifestyle I don't know, like what it doesn't 788 00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 1: George Lucas owned the rights to the phrase death death star. No, oh, 789 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to beef that and all. Sorry. Yes, 790 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,759 Speaker 1: let's hope the U N Resolutions hold in the moon 791 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:50,960 Speaker 1: belongs to the people. But as we see, copyright infringement 792 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,360 Speaker 1: is becoming a bigger and bigger deal every day. Cough 793 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 1: cough tpp cough cough. But this, this brings us to 794 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,600 Speaker 1: know we gotta gonna ask you this question. It's it's 795 00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 1: pretty important.
