1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: From UFOs to psychic powers and government conspiracies. History is 2 00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:09,119 Speaker 1: riddled with unexplained events. You can turn back now or 3 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,079 Speaker 1: learn the stuff they don't want you to know. A 4 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 1: production of My Heart greeting, Hello, welcome back to the show. 5 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 1: My name is Matt, my name is Nol. They called 6 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: me Bett, and we're joined as always with our super 7 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 1: producer Alexis code named Doc Holiday Jackson. Most importantly, you 8 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 1: are you, You are here, and that makes this the 9 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: stuff they don't want you to know. It's the top 10 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: of the week two. Welcome back and good luck to 11 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: us all. I feel like it's the greeting we should 12 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 1: start saying more often here. Uh. We had a tough time, 13 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 1: I think over the past week finding the stories we 14 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: really wanted to stick with. Just for recaps, Japanese construction 15 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: companies are building mix. That's true. There are doubts about 16 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: whether or not Musk will actually buy Twitter. We've upped 17 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 1: our our meme game on social media, so thanks to 18 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: all our fellow conspiracy realist participating in that. Today we're 19 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 1: going to talk about a strange case with baptism and death. 20 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: We're going to talk about the real life example happening 21 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: now of the dangers we warned about for years with 22 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: water shortages that will be coming to affect a municipality 23 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: near you. And then we're also going to talk about 24 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,320 Speaker 1: one of the newest conspiracy theories, one that you may 25 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: have heard about just in the past week or so, 26 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: concerning food supplies. Have you, guys heard about all the 27 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: various like attacks and food processing disasters across the US today, Ben, 28 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: I've not heard of this at all. I noticed something 29 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: over the weekend about a recall of meat products, and 30 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: when you mentioned to us what you're covering today, I 31 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: thought that's what we're talking about. I thought that was 32 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: a story you were bringing up. Was this one case 33 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: of a meat processing plant that was like, yeah, maybe 34 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: there's some cool I let's shut the whole thing down. 35 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: But that is not at all what we're talking about here. 36 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: You're talking about a tax on like food supply chain, right, Well, 37 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: that's that's the idea. Yeah, So we know that there 38 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: have been a number of disasters and various food processing 39 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:39,799 Speaker 1: facilities like cereal mills, uh salad packaging plant in California 40 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: that burned to the ground on April. It was a 41 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: major food processing facility at Taylor Farms. And then just 42 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: a few weeks before that in Maine, potato processing plant 43 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,959 Speaker 1: was destroyed also by a fire. Here in stuff that 44 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: wants you to know is home state of Georgia. Lights planes, 45 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: actual airplanes were crashing into food processing areas. Has also 46 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: happened in Idaho. Animal feed mill burned down in Louisiana 47 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: and January, there's a food bank in Arizona that caught 48 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: a fire in March, and there are more and more 49 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: and more and this, yeah, this has led to the 50 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: birth of a new conspiracy theory, the just being that someone, 51 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: some entity, or some force is seeking to disrupt typical 52 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: food supply chains and then perhaps take advantage of that chaos. 53 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: In some cases, you'll hear speculation that there's a larger 54 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: company that is attempting to take this chaos and use 55 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: it as a way of consolidating their own control overmass agriculture. 56 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: If so, it's scary scary stuff, right, is there world 57 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: where this could be some weird niche version of eco 58 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: terrorism because of all of the uh, you know, additives 59 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: and things that are being put in food and g 60 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: and GMOs and all that. Some kind of version of 61 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 1: like disrupting that system, even if it's to the detriment 62 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: of you know, large group of people and possibly populations 63 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: that are um less wealthy and have to rely on 64 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: processed foods, maybe don't have the luxury of of buying 65 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:33,559 Speaker 1: you know, organic. Yeah, it's I mean, it's the fear 66 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: is coming from a real place. And before we dive 67 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: in too much with this, we do have to say 68 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: the following things are demonstrably true. One, yes, food processing 69 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: plants have been burning down. Those facilities in many cases 70 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: have been rendered unusable as a result of these fires. Two, 71 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: we can say that anybody who lives in this country 72 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 1: and pays it punchin to their bank account knows that 73 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 1: the cost of average things are accelerating at a higher 74 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: than average pace. You know, everything from your local case 75 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: da stand to wherever you buy produce, wherever you buy gas, shoelaces, 76 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: gimlets for your shoes, whatever you name it. Uh, it's 77 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: more expensive in most cases than it was in the 78 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: years previous. So those fears are kind of commingling and 79 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: mixing and blending into this smoothie of conspiratorial thought. So 80 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 1: if we were to look at this critically as a 81 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: as a conspiracy theory. If we're to practice conspiracy realism, 82 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: then first we would need to find out who or 83 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: what would profit from the results of those disruptions, you know, 84 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: of those disasters. And in that case, usually what you're 85 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: going to hear in these theories is going to be 86 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: something like it's uh a big food brand or holding company, 87 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: right Like they'll say, oh, it's it's a Monsanto, or 88 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: it's young brands or something, and their basis for that 89 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: thought is that those are very very large entities. But 90 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: that's not enough, you know what I mean, that's not 91 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: enough to prove the case. And if you if you 92 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: think about it that way, let's just put that to 93 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: the side for a second and we say, okay, well, 94 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 1: what if in that case, what if there is um 95 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 1: how would they profit? Would they buy up this stuff 96 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: or would they be able to maybe swoop into the 97 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: market and sell like now they sell the cereal because 98 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: the other place got knocked out, or they sell the potatoes, right, 99 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: something like that. I have to tell you, this is 100 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: not My mind doesn't go to eco terrorism or or 101 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: that ben and my mind right now, I just want 102 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: to thinking about everything. It goes to warfare. When when 103 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: you're engaged, even in a proxy war, in full scale 104 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: war with another country or superpower, one of the main 105 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: targets are you know, supplies, specifically food supplies, and you know, 106 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: attempting to starve an enemy out. That's where my mind went, Uh, 107 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: I'm not thinking about the profits, but that that to me, Well, 108 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: you're saying is way more plausible to me than you know, 109 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: Russia or some other world power that you know has 110 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: ill intentions on us attacking our food chain in that way. 111 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: I just want to just a cursory google of my 112 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: initial gut theory, I guess the eco terrorism angled there there. 113 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: I haven't seen any examples of this popping up yet 114 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: in the States, but I did an article from a 115 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: website called Genetic Literacy Project Science not Ideology as their 116 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: tagline UM came up saying, age of eco terrorism. Why 117 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: are activists attacking the most productive part of our food 118 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: industry at modern agriculture? And this is happening in Brittany, 119 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: France where a grain train was sabotaged and destroyed very 120 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: recently March ninete in Brittany, France, and it was packed 121 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: with fifteen hundred tons of wheat UM that were intended 122 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: for chickens at a cooperative, so it doesn't seem like 123 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: it's out of the realm of possibility that could make 124 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: its way here and disrupt food chains that are seen 125 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,559 Speaker 1: as being less than friendly to the environments, which these 126 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: massive prepackaged, you know, industrialized processing plants certainly could be 127 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: seen as. Yeah, there's an interesting distinction which didn't Uh. 128 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if we hit out 129 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: hard enough in the eco terrorism episode, but one of 130 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: the hallmarks of terrorists organizations were those who engage in 131 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: terroristic activities is that they want to be identified. They 132 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 1: want you to know who did it and why, right, 133 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: and in this in that case described yeah in France, 134 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: then that would make sense. There's probably a clear uh 135 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:00,559 Speaker 1: indicator of who at least claimed responsibility. This is not 136 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: so uh the if there were some nefarious entity behind this, 137 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: it hasn't identified itself as of yet, and then we 138 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: also need to think about how complicated it would be 139 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 1: to pull off this stuff. We also need to think 140 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: about how strange it would be for any entity, even 141 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: powerful enough to perpetrate something like this, how weird it 142 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: would be for them to be so rude Goldberg esque 143 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: about it to make every attack a game of mouse 144 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: trap such that it looks like an accident. In every case, 145 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: it sounds more like a super villain. Ben some villain. 146 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: He's the food daddy. Yeah, there's a fantastic line in 147 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: this Daily Dot article about this conjuncture. Are like positing 148 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 1: with is it mere coincidence, just some bad things happening 149 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: at the same time, or is it a sinister plot 150 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: to starve the United States and call the herd of 151 00:09:54,760 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: useless eaters? I love useless eaters. That is solid writing. Yeah, 152 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: that's a shout out to Mike Roth's child, the author 153 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: of that. That's what I wanted to post on and 154 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: that that came in as we were recording today. So Mike, 155 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: thank you. You played a big part in today's show. 156 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 1: The The issue is that this, lest we all panic, right, 157 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: there are other much more real things to panic about. Um, 158 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: this is kind of easily disprove it first. Yes, the 159 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: food supply chain is going to be a problem. There 160 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 1: are allegations about Russia attacking Ukrainian uh grain stores now 161 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: grain storage sites, I should say, But the bigger picture, 162 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: whether you think that's propaganda or true, the bigger picture 163 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: is going to be what happens to African nations that 164 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 1: rely on Russia and Ukrainian agricultural supplies. The food supply 165 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,559 Speaker 1: chain in the US and abroad is only going to 166 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: be increasingly disrupted as the amount of arable land continues 167 00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 1: to erode. But in this case, we can say this 168 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: is kind of false. And to understand why it's false, 169 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: all you have to do is look back at other 170 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: stories of fires at food processing facilities. There kind of common, 171 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: they're not infrequent in and it goes on and there 172 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: hasn't really been year over year an uptake or an uptick, 173 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: I should say, in these incidents. This is something she 174 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: reported in Daily Dot. You can also, I want to 175 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: give a kudos to uh W C and C outside 176 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: of Charlotte, whose co authors had a little bit of 177 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: a deeper look into this based on tweets, because this 178 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: thing was blowing up on Twitter for a while. But 179 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: if you look at comments from people like Sarah Little, 180 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: the VP of Communications at North American Meat Institute, which 181 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: is a thing Nammy uh to Todd Super who is 182 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 1: running things over at the National Chicken Council, is their 183 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: senior VP of Communications or even the U s d 184 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,959 Speaker 1: A Department of Agriculture. They've all responded that what we're 185 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 1: seeing here when you're looking at these posts on social 186 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: media that talk about this sort of stuff, what they're 187 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: doing is taking very real problems and real events and 188 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: they're kind of connect trying to connect them in often 189 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: tenuous ways that are disprovable. And again, if you're already 190 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: primed to believe this stuff, there's a big part of 191 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: your brain it's going to be kind of mad at 192 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: you for disproving what it already assumed. That's why it 193 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: can be tough. You can see lists that have um 194 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: that have something like twenty articles referencing similar events ostensibly 195 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: similar events, or eighteen or even sixteen, and when you 196 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: look at them presented that way, when they're curated that way, 197 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: it can look a lot like a trend. But the 198 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: issue is again that you can make a list like 199 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: this for many other years leading up to now, and 200 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: when you think about the numbers, the US has more 201 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: than Snopes pointed this out too, and I verified some 202 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: of their sources well. In twenty nineteen, the US have 203 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: more than thirty six thousand different processing outfits for food 204 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: and beverages. That means that if you look at the 205 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: twenty six news articles Snopes listed in there, you know, 206 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: here's twenty nineteen approach to this and that comparison, that's 207 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: less than one percent of those facilities. So this is 208 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: kind of like saying, there have been troubling reports of 209 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: car accidents in every state across the US over the 210 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: course of January two. Who's sabotaging all these cars? You 211 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: know what I mean? The answer is not some Bond 212 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: esque emperor of traffic lines. The answer instead is human 213 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: error and most of those cases, so we have to 214 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: be really careful with the way information is framed, the 215 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: way it ends up getting depicted. And the thing is, 216 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: I feel like these kind of stories are going to 217 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: continue regardless of analysis or the facts, simply because it 218 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: is such red meat, right for people who are already 219 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: trying to find a specific example of fears and trends. 220 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: With that being said, you know, consider our earlier Strange 221 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: News segment on that water processing hack over in Florida. 222 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: That was one time and people lost beat me here, Doc, 223 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: People lost the minds because it's scary. So if there 224 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: were purposeful attacks on food processing plants in a coordinated 225 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: way across the country. This would be much bigger news. 226 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 1: This would not just be a Twitter post. And you 227 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: don't even have to hack the water plants anymore, and 228 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: the water is just not going to be in there. 229 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: That's the set up. Yeah, that's something else we're gonna 230 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: see in the third act of this week's segment. For now, 231 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: I just wanted to put this on your radar. If 232 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: you want to have I find more information about this, 233 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: then I would recommend looking at some of those uh 234 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: articles I had just cited. Check out Snopes. They did 235 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: a great overview of this, but also check out the 236 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: real geopolitical concerns about coming food shortages due to the 237 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: war in Ukraine that is going to be hitting people 238 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: um harder. We should also do an episode about about 239 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: fake flation. It's a word I've made up for some 240 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: of this stuff because I was thinking, I think it 241 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: will work. I was thinking about, you know, how gas 242 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: prices will go up at these predictable demands, but then 243 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: also gas prices will go up and the the reason 244 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: you're given is that it's a insert administration here, or 245 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: that it's be global shortages. But then when those things 246 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: get x or changed or whatever. A new administration comes 247 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: in the whatever conflict that's been blamed for this is resolved. 248 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: How come those prices don't go down, never go back 249 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: down to where they were telling you fake plai. Anyway, 250 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: We're gonna pause for work from our sponsors, will return 251 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: with more strange news, and we're back. Uh. You know, 252 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: if the story I'm about to describe sounds like the 253 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: plot of a kind of B level, swampy backwoods like 254 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: stalker horror film, that's probably because it definitely has that 255 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: kind of potential. Um not to diminish the lives that 256 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: are being affective or that potentially were affected directly by 257 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: this story. But you can't, I can't ignore that aspect 258 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: of I'm just gonna read the headline that I found 259 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: from news nine ABC in Tennessee. Saadi Daisy, woman at 260 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: center of deputy baptism lawsuit, found dead in home Wednesday. Okay, 261 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: so this is essentially a follow up to another story 262 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 1: that I wish you would have caught earlier because it happened. 263 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: I think it was a couple of weeks ago that 264 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 1: this lawsuit, uh that was described in the headline was 265 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: given the go ahead to go forward. I just found 266 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 1: an article in the Chattanooga Times Free Press judge Okay's 267 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: lawsuit against ex Hamilton's county deputy for baptizing woman after 268 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: traffic stops. So what happened? What you're asking yourself? Um? 269 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 1: The name of the woman, uh was Shandel Marie Riley. 270 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: She was forty two years old. Back in twenty nineteen. 271 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: She was stopped for a traffic stop, um by a 272 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: deputy sheriff, Daniel Wilkie. He pulled her over outside just 273 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: outside of her ex mother in law's home. Um. It 274 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: wasn't clear exactly what the stop was forgine, it was 275 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: something relatively routine and she was so close to home. 276 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: Maybe he was following her for a little bit, if 277 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: she was speeding or ran stop sign or something simple 278 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 1: like that. That's really what it seems like. Uh, it's 279 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,360 Speaker 1: usually I wouldn't imagine typically getting pulled over right outside 280 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: your final destination, but it certainly happens. Um, if it's 281 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: in like a residential area, maybe you made a boo 282 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: boo and you know, rolled through a stop stop sign 283 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: and then the cop follows you home. Um. It's a 284 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: little creepy in and of itself, but not completely unheard of. 285 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: But what is completely unheard of is that the deputy 286 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: you know, asked her probably a typical round of questions, 287 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: and she admitted, you just don't do this. People just 288 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: don't do it. It's just you don't have to do it. 289 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: Don't do it. She admitted that she had a marijuana 290 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: roach in her cigarette pack. Um, you just don't do that. 291 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,199 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, not trying to shame the dead here, but 292 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: it's just they have no right to search you. Um, 293 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: And I guess that's probably cause they certainly can, e suppose. 294 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: But then if you're found to have had your right 295 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: so hilated, that can they can be upheld by a court. 296 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: But we are talking about pre rural part of the 297 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: South where sort of the network of good old boy 298 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: and stuff that extends all the way up to the 299 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: the court's unfortunately a lot of times, and if you 300 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: can sent to a search, probably cause goes out the window, exactly, 301 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: thank you. So you just say no, say no. If 302 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 1: they force it upon you, you at least have that 303 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 1: future protection if probable cause did not truly exist. It's 304 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 1: always easy for a cop to say they smell marijuana. 305 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: Didn't sound like that was the case. Though it sounded 306 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: like a lot of times they'll say, you know, do 307 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: you have any drugs in the car, or do you 308 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: have any weapons or whatever, and some people that maybe 309 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: don't know their rights well enough will get that stuff 310 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: over and it's just not doesn't It doesn't like absolve 311 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: you of of the consequence of having it. So um, 312 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: the sheriff deputy said, Okay, well, I'm gonna give you 313 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: an ultimatum, Gonna give you a choice here. I'll either 314 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: take you to jail or you can go into your 315 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: mother in law ex mother in law's house, get some towels, 316 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: and walk with me down to this lake here and 317 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: allow me to baptize you in the the water. I 318 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: mean the parade of red flags. It's I mean, first, 319 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: first of all, I just would can you imagine how 320 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: you would feel in that situation? I would, I mean, 321 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: especially if you're like vehemently anti religion or anti you know, 322 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: I would feel violated on so many levels. Like I 323 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: would say yes, but just because I don't believe it, honestly, 324 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: of course I would say yes. And who get I 325 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: don't believe in what it's what it's, what it stands for, 326 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 1: the meaning behind it but it's it's essentially the same 327 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 1: as as being asked to bend over and bark like 328 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: a dog, you know. I mean it's it's the same 329 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 1: as being it's it's a form of humiliation. I would argue, 330 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: it's it's incredibly illegal. So that happened. And when she 331 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 1: walked into the house, the mothers like, what are you doing? 332 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,479 Speaker 1: And she goes, I guess I'm her quote from her 333 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: as I guess I'm fixing to get back tizt um. 334 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: And I had to say, there's an article about this 335 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: in religion News services. Well, it doesn't come right out 336 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: and say this guy sucks and did a thing that 337 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 1: makes the rest of us, you know, religious folks look bad. 338 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: It reported on it pretty even handedly and definitely was 339 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: not like he was out there doing God's work, because 340 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: that is not that is not what that is. That 341 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: is absolutely an active coercion um, and that is how 342 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: it is being tried um. So essentially, uh. The the 343 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: woman filed a lawsuit against against the deputy who and 344 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: his his buddy. By the way, he had his buddy 345 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 1: who was another deputy, come and join uh too. I 346 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 1: guess you gotta have like a I don't know an 347 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: assistant for a for a baptism. I didn't think he statement. 348 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: The statement that was given I think his name is 349 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: Jacob go Forth, deputy. The statement there was a lead 350 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 1: given hers in this article is that he filmed it. 351 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: He was there to film it. Well, he there had 352 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 1: to be a witness or for the baptism to be 353 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 1: I guess legitimate or something in the eyes of the 354 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 1: of Wilkie, the guy who did it. Okay, well that's 355 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: what he was there for. And he also apparently filmed 356 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: the whole thing on his cell phone camera. Um and 357 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: and also reportedly um in in the same Religion News 358 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: article that they describe it very matter of factly. Wilkie 359 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: stripped down to his underwear and T shirt and waded 360 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: into the water. Um. That's creepy in and of itself. 361 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: And Riley, fully clothed, followed. Wilkie baptized her by immersion, 362 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: as go Forth filmed the event from his cell phone. Uh. 363 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: Go Forth later said that he filmed the event to 364 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: protect all persons present and document the events. Okay, um, 365 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: let's see how it's protecting anybody. Um. In any case, 366 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 1: So there's a film, there's a film that this reminds 367 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: me of not mean to be extreme and making the domination, 368 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: you know, connections. But that's how it feels to me. 369 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: There's a movie called Coercion, Um I believe that's what 370 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 1: it's called. It's it basically is about a dude that, 371 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: like rob's a fast food restaurant and it holds a 372 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 1: young fast food employee, fast food you know, restaurant employee 373 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: hostage in the back of the restaurant just by like 374 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: making these escalating requests. Eventually it ends up in just 375 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,479 Speaker 1: the most like degrading, humiliating circumstances you could possibly imagine. 376 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: But it's like a frog boiling in water. You but 377 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: you don't even know you're being abused until you think 378 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 1: back on it or you realize, oh, I'm tied to 379 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: a chair or whatever it is, or oh, I'm out 380 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: in the water with this weird dude in his underwear. 381 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I fully think this is a power play. 382 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 1: It's like and that that is how that is how 383 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: she characterized in the lawsuits. She referred to it as 384 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: it was about not about saving her soul, but about 385 00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: power and control. And it was not long before or 386 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: the body was discovered that a Tennessee judge gave the 387 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 1: go ahead for this lawsuit against UM, the ex Hamilton 388 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 1: County deputy, to move forward. So of course, you know, 389 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 1: I found this on a Reddit thread, and conspiratorial chatter 390 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: is kind of going nuts, implying that you know this, 391 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 1: this this man hired somebody to kill this woman for 392 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 1: ruining his life whatever, and that's how they would perceive. 393 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: I suppose that he had a sibling or something that 394 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 1: did it. There's a lot of talk about that kind 395 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: of good old boy mafia mentality and that part of 396 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: the country, a lot of possibilities UM. But it's a 397 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 1: very troubling story on a lot of levels, because I 398 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: really do feel myself getting more and more worked up 399 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: out of the more I talk about it, because that 400 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: is just a flagrant abuse of power, you know, especially 401 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: for a crime that already should be a non issue. 402 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: You're gonna use that against somebody threatened them with, you know, 403 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: potentially life ruining situation and and arm twist them, you know, 404 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: into doing something that that you want them to do 405 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:11,199 Speaker 1: that they have no wherewithal to actually do. I just 406 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: find it really despicable and it's strange too, because you know, 407 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: for anybody unfamiliar with Hamilton's County. Like we said, you 408 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: don't want to be unfair paint with a broad brush, 409 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: but there are plenty of firsthand experiences people have had, 410 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: locals as well as visitors to the area with um, 411 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: you know, clear bias on the part of law enforcement. 412 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: Everybody who works in law enforcement in that area. Of course, 413 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 1: they're they're human being. They have their own personal beliefs, 414 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: but the question is are they capable of separating those 415 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: beliefs from the day to day duties of their job. 416 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: You know, they're being accused of islamaphobia in the past, 417 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: they've been they've been accused of talking openly on social 418 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 1: media about the upcoming race war. I don't think that's 419 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: the kind of person you want in charge of a 420 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: firearm and the ability to pull you over on the road, 421 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So they have a lot 422 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 1: of stuff to work on, but it's really troubling. There 423 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: was one comment that stood out to me. It's really 424 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: troubling when you see statements like those of Robin Flores, 425 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: the late ms Riley's attorney, who says we might not 426 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: have nobody to continue to prosecute this case because this 427 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: lawsuit was already getting delayed multiple times due to the pandemic. Right, 428 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: so what's going to happen is this guy is this 429 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 1: case is going to get just thrown out? Yeah, I 430 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:42,719 Speaker 1: mean that that was a chatter about that on the 431 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: Reddit thread too, and someone you know, kind of pointed 432 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:50,360 Speaker 1: out that that's not really supposed to be allowed to happen, right, 433 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: But we are talking about a rural area where politics 434 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 1: and supposed to enter into this kind of stuff into 435 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: the law. But it and and and it's also a 436 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: staffing issue, and I guess maybe because it's a police officer, 437 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: there might be an easier route to throwing it out. 438 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: To the judge's credit, Travis R. Mcdonnaugh of the Tennessee 439 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,159 Speaker 1: Eastern District Court. Uh, I mean, he's got some damning 440 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: things to say about this. And then then I thought 441 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: were very astute saying, quote, in view of all the 442 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: circumstances surrounding the instant, a reasonable person would have believed 443 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 1: he was not free to leave, or would feel free 444 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: to decline the officer's requests or otherwise terminate the encounter. 445 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: And then it's like kind of legally as a little 446 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: a little muddled sounding, but I mean essentially saying that 447 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 1: a person of sound mind in that situation would have 448 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: believed this was an ultimatum. This was a you know, 449 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: if you don't do this, I am taking you to jail. 450 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: Uh and then and therefore would have felt entrapped because 451 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: you know, you're probably going to get out of the baptism, 452 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 1: as humiliating as it might be, but you get into 453 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: the system like that, you know where it could lead. Yeah, 454 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 1: this weird stuff going on with this one, guys. Um 455 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: First of all, for anyway that was confused, sawdy Daisy 456 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,719 Speaker 1: is a place I didn't understand that in the beginning. 457 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: And yes, and that is a no no no no 458 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: um my understanding with the case and whether it can 459 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: continue on, I think there's a good chance for it 460 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: to continue on because they believe the plaintiff in this case, 461 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:32,119 Speaker 1: the woman who was found dead, was seeking I believe, 462 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: around a million dollars for this and according to some 463 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: of the reporting there from Channel nine, if the children, 464 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: her surviving children want to continue to take the case, 465 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: they can because she had already given her deposition and 466 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: her testimony is already on record so that it could 467 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: be presented in the case if they wanted to continue 468 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: forward with it. I have a feeling that will still 469 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: happen because we're talking about two very different things, the 470 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: baptism and all the bad stuff that happened in that 471 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: moment and that encounter in the lawsuit that came after that. 472 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: But then also she was found dead. Do we know 473 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 1: if there's any information on that yet or is it 474 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: just there's not they're waiting for the autopsy. I mean, 475 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: that's that's obviously the impetus for talking about the story. 476 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: But so much going on, that's just like the latest, 477 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: like you know, um, and we know nothing about it, 478 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: so that's it's it's harder to to talk about. But yeah, 479 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: that's it's the kicker, right, And I appreciate you going 480 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: into that mad about how her kids could pursue it. 481 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,479 Speaker 1: Um do we know what who her surviving heirs are? 482 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: I haven't seen any anything about that in the in 483 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: the stories that happen. She has to Uh, she has 484 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: two children and it would be up to them. They 485 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: would essentially have to become the plaintifts for the case. 486 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: Is the unders matter how old they are? Does it 487 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: matter at all? I'm not sure on that in that respect, 488 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: but logically I would imagine at least one of them 489 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: has to be old enough to function as their own guardian. 490 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: Maybe so she's only early four these there's certainly potential 491 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: that both of our kids are under age. Right again, 492 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: we don't know that and they haven't leased that info 493 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: ages anyway, But just to wrap this up, Wilkie has 494 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: been indicted on forty four charges, including six counts of 495 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 1: sexual battery, two counts of rape, nine counts of official oppression, extortion, stalking, 496 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: and assault. Um. Not sure about that. The deputy yes, wow, 497 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: the rape, I don't know. I don't understand what the 498 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: two counts are there because I'm gonna I'm gonna follow 499 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: up on this. He was accused of of groping her 500 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 1: her in the crotch area. UM oh sorry, wait no, no, 501 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: these are other cases me. Wilkie faces numerous lawsuits in 502 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: several cases involving alleged excessive use of force while including 503 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: the alleged unlawful body cavity search of a man while 504 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: performing a traffic stop. And Ben you mentioned Islamophobia certainly 505 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: a thing that that comes up in this part of 506 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: the country and our whole where we live. You know, 507 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: I mean like the South and there's but you know what, 508 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: we go to places like Oregon where there's to see 509 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: it as a bastion of like you know, um, liberalism 510 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 1: in their pockets. You know that are about as scary 511 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: and and uh backwards as you could possibly imagine the 512 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: same with California. I mean it's it's not limited. Uh, 513 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: you know, ignorance is not limited geographically to to anywhere 514 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 1: in the world. Um. But this guy Wilkie has a 515 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: rap sheet. He has been according to the Times Free 516 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: Press article I mentioned, um has numerous lawsuits penning against 517 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: him in several cases involving I'm just reading from it, 518 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 1: and then we'll move on alleged excessive use of force, 519 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: including the alleged unlawful body cavity search of a man 520 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: while performing a traffic stop and the alleged groping of 521 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: female miners. UM. The requested damages in the lawsuits in 522 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 1: total around eleven million dollars is just adding onto the 523 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: pile here. Uh. And according to Hamilton County official court documents, 524 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 1: he has been indicted on forty four charge is all 525 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: in including six counts of sexual battery, two counts of rape, 526 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: nine counts of official oppression, extortion, stalking, and assault, among others. Guys, 527 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: I think he killed her. Just putting that out there. 528 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: There's a bad guy. This is my opinion. I don't 529 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 1: think it would be that. I don't think it would 530 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: be that person on their own. No, No, I mean 531 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: I think, yes, something, something is really really rotten with 532 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: this guy. And um, yeah, we'll have to follow this 533 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: one up. But I'm sorry, this is went a little long, 534 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 1: but um and and and dark. But let's keep an 535 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 1: eye on and and see where it goes and take a 536 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: break first, and we'll be back with some more strange news. 537 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 1: All right, And we're back. And if everyone could do 538 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: me a favor, if you have access to it, go 539 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: ahead and just get a little cup of water, if 540 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: you've got some kind of holding, you know, container, just 541 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: put a little happened there whatever, water, your choice, a 542 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: crystal light, okay, this monster Okay, they all contain water, 543 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: including my U my iced coffee, which is probably at 544 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 1: this point should be a controlled substance. But yet how 545 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: convenient is it? Matt? Do you ever think about that? 546 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: I like, I started, Uh one time I turned on 547 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 1: the shower and I thought, how amazing it is that 548 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: Not only is this always showing up whenever I want, 549 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: but I, like so many other people in the developed world, 550 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: get irritated if it's not the temperature I like, you 551 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: know what I mean. I'm like, oh, this potable, drinkable 552 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: water is a little too warm, too cold for me 553 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: to throw it out. They don't have ice. This place 554 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 1: is too terrible. Two wonderful things, right, the having access 555 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: to water and then being able to change the temperature 556 00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: of that water using electricity and or you know, gas 557 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: and heat fire, um. And also you know, having having 558 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: natural gas plants that run on electricity. We'll we'll get 559 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: into it. It's a bit of a nice real slope 560 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: that we're gonna be going on today. It starts at 561 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: the mouth of the Colorado River. Uh. It's really where 562 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 1: it begins and where water travels all across these great 563 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: United States until it reaches a little place called Lake Powell. 564 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: And that is in Arizona, great state of Arizona, right 565 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,800 Speaker 1: at the Utah border. So if you're looking at maps, 566 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 1: Google maps or any other maps, you can see that 567 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: where Lake Powell is, Uh, it's right on the border 568 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: of Arizona and Utah. And which is important because the 569 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 1: Colorado River is often used as a place where a 570 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 1: state's line kind of cuts across. That's very frequent out 571 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 1: in the Western United States and in this lake, which 572 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: is the second largest reservoir that exists in the United States. Reservoir, 573 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 1: of course, just a holding place of water, place where 574 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: water pools, if you will, in lake form, so they 575 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: can be used for various things. One of the main 576 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: things that it's used for is to have it pumped 577 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 1: out to water treatment plants and other facilities that get 578 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: the water ready for drinking, for showering, for washing dishes, 579 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 1: for watering lawns, for all the things that we need, 580 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: including you know, water bottling plants things like that. Uh. 581 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,359 Speaker 1: There's a problem in Lake Powell because there's a major 582 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: drought going on in the West and has been happening 583 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: for quite a while, and it's getting much much worse. 584 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: The water levels have been reduced almost not quite, but 585 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: almost to the point where some serious decisions are going 586 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 1: to have to be made by people who run municipal 587 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:58,280 Speaker 1: and state uh stuff in Arizona, Utah, California, Colorado, everywhere 588 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: out there. This is a major drought that's about to 589 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 1: be promoted to colonel. Honestly, it's like it's super bad. 590 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 1: That's perfect a nuclear nuclear grade joke. Right, Yes, So 591 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 1: just quickly, the second thing that that water is used for. 592 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 1: If you think about all the mass, all the weight 593 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: of that water sitting in this huge, second largest reservoir 594 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,240 Speaker 1: in the US, it can be used for hydroelectric power, 595 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: which involves that water being strategically released and flowing downwards 596 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: basically to turn turbines that in turn create electricity that 597 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,879 Speaker 1: can be sent all over the place. Then you can 598 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: generate a ton of electricity because that water is being 599 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: siphoned constantly. You just got constant electricity running through that 600 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 1: thing at all times. That's where the Glen Canyon Dam 601 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 1: comes in, because that's the dam that looks quite a 602 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: bit like the Hoover Dam. If take a look at 603 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: it again on a maps app or something. Where the 604 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: water just hydroelectric dam like the one we have here 605 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: in Atlanta called the Buford Dam uh flows down, you 606 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:14,359 Speaker 1: get electricity. And as they send water down that dam, 607 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: it continues the Colorado River, which then leads down to 608 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 1: Lake Mead. Lake Mead is in Nevada right on the 609 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: Arizona border, and guess what's happening in Lake Mead, guys, 610 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: the same thing, the same thing. Uh so, all right, 611 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: so there's our problem, right. We generate electricity with this 612 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: water for a lot of the Southwest. We use this 613 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:45,680 Speaker 1: water to provide water for much of the Southwest, and 614 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 1: the amount of water that exists in these reservoirs is 615 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:52,399 Speaker 1: going away quickly. There's a CNN article title, is Lake 616 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: Powell officials face an impossible choice in the West Mega drought, 617 00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:01,439 Speaker 1: water or electricity? You can find that right now. It 618 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: was posted April, written by Renee Marsh and it's just 619 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: a quick overview of the problems, the critical situation that 620 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: the entire West faces when it comes to figuring out 621 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 1: what to do when those reservoirs will no longer fill 622 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: up to capacity, When the pumps that are inside those 623 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 1: reservoirs and connected to the dams and the water treatment 624 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: facilities can't even get the water because it's so low 625 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: that you can't suck any more water out of it 626 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: because the pumps are too high in the water. Terrifying situation. Guys. 627 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 1: I I could give a lot more details, and let's 628 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,240 Speaker 1: just talk about this because I don't know. It seems 629 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 1: like there are no easy solutions here, not uh, not 630 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: easy solutions defined as solutions that will make everyone involved happy, 631 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 1: that's for sure. I mean there are there are solutions 632 00:38:55,680 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 1: that would require some pretty authoritarian moves on part of 633 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 1: the government, right. But one of the big issues I 634 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 1: would argue is the concept of the tragedy of the commons. 635 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: These watershed disagreements and conflicts are only going to become 636 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 1: more commonplace as time goes on. You know, in the 637 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 1: Southeast you see watershed disagreements and we were unfortunately correct 638 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: when we said water wars are coming. Man. The The 639 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: issue is like you could, for instance, say all right, 640 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,759 Speaker 1: this is not a Kobyashi maru. You know, this is 641 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: not that scenario from Star Trek where there is no 642 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 1: correct answer. This instead brings out a lot of possible 643 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:47,319 Speaker 1: brutal solutions that frankly, residents of the U s would 644 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,760 Speaker 1: never want to hear. It would be political suicide to say, Okay, 645 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 1: now you are going to after rational electricity, We're going 646 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:59,719 Speaker 1: to ration your water intake to X amount of gallons 647 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 1: per person per day. But there are countries that have 648 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: done that, there are countries that are doing that where 649 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: it's just known that the electricity runs from you know, 650 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: this hour to this hour hours. Well, let's just let's 651 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 1: talk about that, Ben, because that damn I forgot to 652 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: mention this. The Hoover Dam is the second dam that 653 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 1: also generates hydroelectric power from the Colorado River right in 654 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 1: the area, and it is also being affected. So it's 655 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: two major dams. But that first one that I mentioned, 656 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,960 Speaker 1: the Glen Canyon Dam on Lake Powell. It it provides 657 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: electricity for five point eight million homes in seven states 658 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 1: throughout the western US. Like, think about think about that 659 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: amount of power and if there isn't enough waterflow to 660 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 1: generate that power it is. It's a scenario that Ben 661 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: is describing where you begin by rationing power until you 662 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 1: can no longer generate power from flowing water. If you know, 663 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 1: if the water levels go down that far, then you 664 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 1: have to find alternative energy sources. Really in that area, 665 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,760 Speaker 1: it's gonna mean burning coal. That's one of the major sources. 666 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: There are a few awesome, huge solar facilities are I 667 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,799 Speaker 1: don't know if you call them park solar parks like 668 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 1: a raise a rays where they can provide quite a 669 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: bit of energy, but nothing compared to what those hydro 670 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,359 Speaker 1: electric power plants in the dam's produce, and now it's 671 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: twenty five percent full. It's thirty two feet away from 672 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 1: not being a power plant anymore. Exactly, silly question, but 673 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 1: like I mean, obviously, hydro electric power is a little 674 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:38,400 Speaker 1: more widely accepted than wind power. Right. It's it's just 675 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: like you know something that you know what this is, 676 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 1: seeven as controversial, right, like as far as our power portfolio. 677 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 1: Um when when you hear you know, people that are 678 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 1: maybe climate change deni ares arguing against wind power, arguing 679 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: against solar potentially because it's more expensive. But like you know, 680 00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 1: things like the Hoover Dam are considered a marvel of 681 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 1: like modern American ingenuity and all of that. Would you 682 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 1: guys agree that, like culturally this is the case, Well, 683 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:02,800 Speaker 1: we've had them for a long time. I mean, the 684 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: concept of damming Upper River like this and controlling the 685 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 1: water flow to produce electricity has just been happening for 686 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: a long time. I think it's more ingrained in our Yeah, 687 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 1: I don't know, just our conscious memory of the past. 688 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 1: But it requires certain circumstances and it requires certain natural features. Yeah. Yeah, 689 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 1: so just like geothermal energy, Honestly, or or wind power. 690 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 1: But the thing is, what's brilliant about hydroelectric power is 691 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: that you don't need a ton of complex material science knowledge, 692 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 1: you know, at least compared to what you would need 693 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: for an efficient solar panel. Uh. And what I think 694 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,760 Speaker 1: is beautiful about hydro electric power, even though it definitely 695 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:45,760 Speaker 1: is a situation specific Uh, the water is already going 696 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 1: where it's going. You can use it. You're just having 697 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 1: it's just doing a side job. It's like high fiveingue 698 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 1: while it's walking by to where it was already headed. 699 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 1: You know, you're not doing too much with it now. 700 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,200 Speaker 1: Of course damning it self, which is part of this 701 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:06,839 Speaker 1: hydroelectric proposition. It does, It can wreak havoc on wildlife. 702 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,959 Speaker 1: It doesn't come without the cost. But I think it's 703 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: it's safe to say that it's still on balance better 704 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 1: than mining and burning coal, which is going to be 705 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:21,879 Speaker 1: hopefully human history will look back on that as a 706 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 1: phase and not a final fatal phase of the anthropasy. God. Yeah, 707 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,399 Speaker 1: you mentioned you know how water rationing is already a thing. 708 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 1: Um like that. Usually we maybe see that in terms 709 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 1: of like when you're allowed to water your lawn, which 710 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: is already a problematic thing in and of itself, a 711 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 1: silly kind of vanity thing that the Americans have the 712 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 1: luxury of having this beautiful lawn that gets to suck 713 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:50,799 Speaker 1: up all this water that you know, people in other 714 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 1: countries would kill to have a tiny, you know, thimble 715 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 1: full of um. But we're talking beyond that, right The 716 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: measures this is required would be like it wouldn't be 717 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: the honor system, or how would they even like track it? 718 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 1: Um is my question. Here's the deal where we keep 719 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,400 Speaker 1: talking about that chain the Colorado River to Lake Powell, 720 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 1: down the Colorado River somewhere to Lake Mead, And the 721 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 1: issue now is Lake Powell releasing fewer gallons of water 722 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: in billions to go down the river to Lake Mead, 723 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 1: which is the other reservoir. So right now there's a proposal. 724 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: I think this is happening like in early May, so 725 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 1: we're recording this on Monday, May second. The results may 726 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 1: have come back from you know, the essentially the think 727 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,760 Speaker 1: tanks of the governments of these very states coming together 728 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,319 Speaker 1: and talking about this and getting you know, some kind 729 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 1: of solution across the table. But right now, the proposal 730 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna quote from the CNN article calls for holding 731 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 1: back the equivalent of forty two point six billion gallons 732 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: of water in Lake Powell, which means I'm gonna keep reading, 733 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,400 Speaker 1: which means deeper cuts to the amount of water people 734 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 1: can use in Arizona, California, Colorado, out Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, 735 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:05,919 Speaker 1: and Wyoming. And they've already they're already holding back. I've 736 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:10,000 Speaker 1: got it in here somewhere, guys, But around billion gallons 737 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 1: of water in two has already been held back. So 738 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: they're already attempting to preserve the water levels in Lake 739 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:23,280 Speaker 1: Powell by not releasing that's the question to Another controversial 740 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 1: part of this very damaging group project is figuring out 741 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:32,760 Speaker 1: which industry gets water right, especially when we're talking about 742 00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 1: very thirsty agricultural things, you know, like livestock or I 743 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:42,440 Speaker 1: don't have the agricultural stats of the of the countries 744 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 1: of the states named right now, they're all still states, 745 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 1: not independent countries. But the big question is would have 746 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 1: cost benefits? Sometimes, too, write like the idea of saving 747 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 1: ecology or local wildlife, goes to the wayside very quickly 748 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,960 Speaker 1: when people feel their lives or their jobs are on 749 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: the line. But then the next step of that, you know, 750 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,359 Speaker 1: like the second gate that this a train walks through. 751 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 1: And this never ending story is the problem of whether 752 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 1: authorities prioritize those businesses and those industries or the people, 753 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 1: you know, like one of the reasons that droughts have 754 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:21,480 Speaker 1: become so problematic. It's not just climate change. It's exacerbated 755 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 1: by this massive infrastructure of very thirsty things. Like you 756 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 1: can look up you can look up how much water 757 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:32,600 Speaker 1: it takes to create one almond. I'm just saying almonds 758 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 1: because they're delicious and and Doqui was eating some earlier 759 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 1: off air, and you know, I'm back on my cash 760 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 1: show thing. But the if you look at it that way, 761 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 1: then you have to start saying, Okay, we're holding back 762 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 1: this much water, right because we need it for the 763 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:53,879 Speaker 1: hydroelectric aspect of this damn to work. But then who 764 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 1: is losing that water? Losing that water? Then? In that regard, 765 00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 1: is it like an industry? Is it is it a 766 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:04,239 Speaker 1: a a group of people, a family of four? How 767 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,440 Speaker 1: do you tell? I don't know how you would everybody 768 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 1: who wants water and lives in those states, everybody south 769 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:17,360 Speaker 1: of the dam. Yeah, and Colorado and guess who wants water. 770 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,600 Speaker 1: No one's immune from that. We need water. I just 771 00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 1: spent three days at a music festival. I know what 772 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: it feels like to be dehydrated even a little bit, 773 00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 1: and and it's bad. Like yoursels need that stuff to 774 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 1: like survive in the same way you need air. It's 775 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 1: just not as quickly palpable um. So this would absolutely 776 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, not to always go to the 777 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 1: mad Max comparison. But that was an aqua aqua cola. 778 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the resource that the warlord has control 779 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 1: over and is able to exert control over the population 780 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 1: by giving them a little bit of water here and 781 00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: there and hoarding it over though. I mean, like it's 782 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,919 Speaker 1: a fantasy film, but is it. I mean it could 783 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:59,320 Speaker 1: you know, who controls the spice and all of that stuff, 784 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 1: I mean, it could getting that bad. I'm surprised they're 785 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:04,840 Speaker 1: having been more you know, groups that are trying to 786 00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: take control over those kinds of resources. You know, it's 787 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 1: a huge going that direction North Africa and the Gulf. No, 788 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,399 Speaker 1: did you get to see the Stranger Things Kids band? Yeah? 789 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 1: It was good. Joe Yeah, yeah, it was super solid. 790 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:21,800 Speaker 1: Now that the name of the band is Joe D 791 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 1: j o H. I forget the actor's name, but he 792 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: plays the He was the bully in the first season 793 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 1: and he gets cool. But um, he's god of sound like, 794 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 1: he's great, kind of sounded like Tam and Paula meets 795 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 1: Flaming Lips, lots of synths and vocoders, and it was 796 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:38,319 Speaker 1: very I was impressed. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Excellent. Well, 797 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 1: you make a great point. Music festivals will not be 798 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 1: a thing if there is no water. Yeah, sorry, just 799 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:46,480 Speaker 1: to follow up on that. You even realize what a 800 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 1: current sya water is when you're at the music festival 801 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 1: because people they're water stations, but people are still carrying 802 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,400 Speaker 1: around the five dollar bottles of water, cans of water, 803 00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:59,919 Speaker 1: liquid death, which is the sponsor of the shaking the music, 804 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 1: because maybe the lines are too long, or they're like 805 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 1: really dehydrating they need it now, like, or they're just 806 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,800 Speaker 1: lazy and don't feel like walking because that's how thirsty 807 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:10,480 Speaker 1: they are, you know what I'm saying, Like you start 808 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:13,080 Speaker 1: to see water as a currency when you get into 809 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: those kinds of situations. Uh, well, guys, we're at time here, 810 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 1: and time is the only thing we have right put 811 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 1: it hopefully, hopefully some water will make its way into 812 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 1: the Western United States in a big way, will be 813 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 1: a comeback. We'll make water great again. Set your rain 814 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,399 Speaker 1: barrels out while you can where it's legal to do so, 815 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 1: because it's not legal anymore in all the places. And 816 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:44,880 Speaker 1: if you want tips on how to survive in the 817 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:49,279 Speaker 1: wild with UH, with minimal access to water or with 818 00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:53,279 Speaker 1: no water, first off of that ladder one you won't 819 00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 1: last long, but you can always you can always write 820 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,200 Speaker 1: out to me directly, UH four tips as someone who's 821 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,480 Speaker 1: been through it. Not pretty, not fun, that's not good. 822 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:05,360 Speaker 1: I was supposed to mention, man, not good. UM desalination 823 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,520 Speaker 1: is one of the solutions to the water problem. When 824 00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 1: you've got freshwater lakes that are running out, massive desalination projects. 825 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 1: There's one happening right now. Oh lord. I think the 826 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 1: name of the company is Poseidon, which is a great 827 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 1: name for a water company. But it was a proposed 828 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,680 Speaker 1: desalination plant off the coast of San Diego, I believe, 829 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:29,959 Speaker 1: but I think it seems like it might not be 830 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 1: moving forward. It's right now in debate and whether or 831 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 1: not the projects you move forward. But that's one of 832 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:38,719 Speaker 1: the only ways we can fix this problem. And all 833 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:42,319 Speaker 1: the coasts, all the places that have ubiquitous amounts of water, 834 00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:45,279 Speaker 1: a water level that's going to continue rising over the 835 00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:48,799 Speaker 1: next hundred years while we're still here. We could use 836 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 1: that water, turn it into potable stuff, and then drink 837 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:55,240 Speaker 1: it and put it our along. Uh. We just need 838 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 1: a couple of billionaires, maybe someone who has the ability 839 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:00,399 Speaker 1: to buy Twitter, to just be like, Man, I'm gonna 840 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:05,480 Speaker 1: do desalination now, right. Also, there are countries that are 841 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,560 Speaker 1: leading the way. I'm so glad you mentioned desalination. Uh, 842 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:12,520 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia like that is keeping the country alive in 843 00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 1: a very real sense. Uh. There's also great work going on, 844 00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,760 Speaker 1: I mean throughout the Ghost the coast, the Gulf Coast, 845 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 1: u a e Quait Israel like they it's not out 846 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:27,799 Speaker 1: of the realm of possibility that eventually other countries will 847 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:31,720 Speaker 1: just have to start buying that technology from them. Oh 848 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 1: and they're m I T students that just made an 849 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:38,840 Speaker 1: amazing desalination system the size of a suitcase. It's incredible. 850 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:41,839 Speaker 1: It's not gonna help the problem that's on the level 851 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 1: we're speaking of right now, but man, as a like 852 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 1: portable desalination device come on, Oh and maybe just build 853 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,319 Speaker 1: a bigger suitcase. Guys. Right there we go, that's the 854 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:56,319 Speaker 1: American solution to the problem. But no, that's beautiful map 855 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:58,880 Speaker 1: because now we're ending on a hopeful rather than a 856 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 1: dystopian note. So it's sort of technology and collective human 857 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:12,600 Speaker 1: conscience racing against the consequences of the actions of previous generations. Yeah, 858 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 1: it's still dystopian. I'm sorry, it's well, we'll find a 859 00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:22,719 Speaker 1: portmanteau that it's dystopian. It's dystopian, hop dystopian. Well what 860 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,439 Speaker 1: you know? What you know? It's not dystopian. You said 861 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 1: ghost and then coast right together, and my head just 862 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 1: went straight to space ghost and I'm happy there.
