37
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,080

00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: get into the office today and we're sorting through some

39
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,959
Speaker 1: of the asked Doctor Jesse questions to try to get

40
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: these things sorted out and Chris is telling me, we

41
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: have a bunch of questions. We have this to that,

42
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: and he said, we have two voicemails about cocaine. I

43
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: don't know that. There are too many shows in the

44
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: country that walk in and have that. Nevertheless, here we are.

45
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: But first and foremost, let us go back to the

46
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: thirteen hundreds, the fourteenth century. Here's what's happening in Europe.

47
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 1: Remember this, always remember this. It's easy, really really easy

48
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: to look back in history or do it currently, to

49
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: point a finger at the superpower, at the one in charge,

50
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: and point out all the things they do wrong. It's easy,

51
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: too easy. Ah, they got involved in this, they did that.

52
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 1: This is how they're screwing everything up. Look, this is

53
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: where they're oppressing these people. Oh, I can't believe they

54
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: passed this policy. Look how disastrous it was. It's really

55
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: really easy throughout history. We do it on this show.

56
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: Look back on the Persian Empire. I can't believe the

57
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: decadence they did it to themselves, the Mongolian Empire. Why

58
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: couldn't they just stop drinking? They had all these all

59
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: these great cons and they were all drinking themselves to death.

60
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: How stupid are they? Barbaric murdering people over and over

61
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: and over again. We look back at the big empires

62
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 1: and point out where they screwed everything up. Now, granted,

63
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,679
Speaker 1: in America today we have half our own country pointing

64
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: at us, telling us how horrible we are. That's gonna

65
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: be our death. But that's another story. Maybe we'll go

66
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: over that later in the show. But Rome is the

67
00:04:54,279 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: biggest example of this because in this horrible revisionist history,

68
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: white guilt society we live in now in the West,

69
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: not just America, in the West, every major power has

70
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: to be dumped on all the time. And there's never

71
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,119
Speaker 1: been a power like Rome, greatest empire of all time.

72
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: And we love everybody now especially loves to point out

73
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 1: the slavery and the oppression and the murder of these

74
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: people in the sacking of this city. And they did

75
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: this wrong and that wrong. And look, a lot of

76
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: that stuff's fair, you know, I give, I give you

77
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: a history right between the eyes. However, remember something, and

78
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: remember it. Well, a lot of these territories where Rome

79
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: committed honestly, well you could probably call it genocide. A

80
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: lot of these places were really, really, really ugly places

81
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 1: before Rome got there. And then they became really civilized,

82
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: modern places while Rome was there, and as soon as

83
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: Rome was gone, they went back to sucking. It's happened

84
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 1: a lot throughout history. I'm just pointing out Rome because

85
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: they're going to apply for today. It's happened a lot.

86
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: I can't believe. I can't believe France is France is

87
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: a call. They're colonizing this country. These people don't deserve it.

88
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: They deserve freedom. I mean, you know that Life of

89
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: Brian Bitt We've been playing all week. We're gonna play

90
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: it again. Yeah. Yeah, we have modern medicine now and roads,

91
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: but France, and then the second France gets kicked out,

92
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 1: the country goes back to being a dump. Europe went

93
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: through a long, long, hard period of time once Rome

94
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: went down, and still in the thirteen hundreds, they're still

95
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: feeling it now at this point. It's not as if

96
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 1: they're backwards barbarians at this point in the thirteen hundreds,

97
00:06:54,400 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: but the countries are so divided up they just could

98
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: never unify on anything and settle down, and so it

99
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: was constantly war. It was a constant state of affairs.

100
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 1: You had England, England fighting with France. I mean We're

101
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: actually gonna be the one hundred years war is going

102
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: on during our story today, and it actually been on

103
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: more than one hundred years. You had the pope vying

104
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: for power. You had Italy where most of our story

105
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: will take place today. Italy. Remember this. People act like

106
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: Italy's ancient because of Rome, but Italy as a unified

107
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: country is not that old. At this point in the

108
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: thirteen hundreds, Italy was like ancient Greece. It was just

109
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 1: a bunch of city states. Now extremely extremely wealthy, sophisticated

110
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: city states, and I mean very wealthy, and not always

111
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: just a city. You would have a Genoa, that's just

112
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: that's just one random one. You could have Genoa as

113
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: a city state, very wealthy, very powerful, and they could

114
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: own colonies across the ocean. But they didn't all consider

115
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 1: themselves to be Italian. No. They were constantly murdering each other,

116
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: which is gonna bring us to our story today. Constantly.

117
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: I heard one guy describe it who wasn't shoot. I

118
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: want to give him credit, but I forget who it was.

119
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: I heard one guy describe Italy. He said, you know

120
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: where they got the mafia from. They got it from

121
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 1: how they were doing business Back in the thirteen hundreds.

122
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: It was run like a mafia, only a big one.

123
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: You had this family who controls this city state and

124
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: that family who controls that city state. And this guy

125
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 1: tries to assassinate that guy tries to marry this daughter.

126
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 1: They form an alliance, and it was a constant state

127
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: of blood and trade. And then you throw in the

128
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: religious aspect of it, and that wasn't small. It was

129
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 1: not small. Remember how corrupt that has been through certain

130
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: periods of time with the papacy, the pope so often

131
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: back then. I mean, I'm not Catholics, so I can't

132
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 1: be judging this pope. Now. I'm not a big fan,

133
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: but back then, oftentimes these popes were just they was

134
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: just a king who wore white, oftentimes a corrupt, corrupt,

135
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: corrupt king, a king who had the power to tell

136
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: anybody in the world they weren't going to heaven anymore.

137
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: Kind of a big deal. So it's an ugly state

138
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 1: of affairs. But let's go to England first. Have you

139
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: ever wondered about being a mercenary? Now you know what

140
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 1: a mercenary is. It's somebody who gets gets paid for combat.

141
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: I've wondered about it a lot, and I wondered about

142
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: it because I considered doing it at one point in time,

143
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 1: and I just couldn't ever completely wrap my mind around it.

144
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: Just this quick little thing here when we were in

145
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: the marine, where we were Marine Corps infantry guys that

146
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: we were trained pretty well, and we got with someone

147
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: made sure we got word that for thirty thousand dollars

148
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: a month you could go hunt poachers in Africa. Now

149
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: I don't exactly like poachers. I didn't think I hated

150
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: them enough to go murder them, and my mom would

151
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 1: kill me. However, it brought some questions up and it's

152
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,959
Speaker 1: going to apply to our story today being a mercenary.

153
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: Also today, comb overs hang on feeling a little stocky,

178
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: We do not toss him ever, all right. England thirteen hundreds.

179
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: The most famous mercenary probably ever to exist, is born

180
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: thirteen twenty three, and his name is John Hawkwood. He's

181
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: born relatively middle class family. Some of his childhood details

182
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: are fuzzy, so I'm not going to give you any

183
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: of them in case it's a bunch of crap. Some

184
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 1: people said he was a tanner, some people said he

185
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: was wealthy. Whatever the story is. King Edward the third

186
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 1: of England at the time, he I know you're going

187
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: to find. The shocking was fighting with France. England and

188
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 1: France are always hit each other's throats and they're in

189
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: the middle of the One Hundred Years War. When you're

190
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: in a long war like that, it does many, many, many,

191
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: many many things to your country, and not many of

192
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:04,839
Speaker 1: them good. Protracted war is really never good, and it

193
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: was doing something to England at the time as well.

194
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 1: It was running through their young men. They were all

195
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: getting run through combat and that can sound healthy, but man,

196
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: it's really unhealthy. They die, they're maimed. You adjust the

197
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: mentality of a nation. Remember they say France lost World

198
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: War two in World War One because such a huge

199
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: percentage of the French male population had been through that

200
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 1: living hell in World War One. By the time you

201
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: got to World War Two, they're just you're so warped.

202
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: You're you're so different than you were before that it

203
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: changes your whole country. England was going through this as well,

204
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: and they were going through something else. You have all

205
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: these men. John Hawkway joins the army becomes a long bowman,

206
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: which is a big deal at the time. Well, then

207
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: the war eventually stopped. So now you have men without

208
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: great opportunity in front of them, highly trained in combat,

209
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: stuck with only really one special life skill, and nowhere

210
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: to officially ply their trade. And this is the point

211
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: in time. Remember we have the Black plague everything else.

212
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: And what happened was an odd phenomenon. We had all

213
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: these mercenary companies, they called them free companies, pop up

214
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: all over Europe because just because the official war was

215
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: over didn't mean there weren't a thousand other conflicts between

216
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: this lord and that lord, and this city state and

217
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: that city state, and everybody wanted experienced fighting men. So

218
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: you're somebody like John Hawkwood, who apparently acquitted himself very

219
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 1: well in that war. You finish you have, as the

220
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: great movie was it taken says, a very particular set

221
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: of skills and not many other skills. It's a tough

222
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: question right. Look, I told you I went through this

223
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: when I was getting out of the Marine Corps. I

224
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: seriously considered it. Thirty thousand dollars a month to go

225
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: hunt down poachers. That's huge money. That's huge money. These

226
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: guys were going through the same thing. Let's see, I

227
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: can go home, go back to the family farm, maybe work,

228
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: maybe work as a blacksmith's apprentice, or or hear me

229
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: out here, this city state really doesn't like that city state,

230
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: and they're offering us a small fortune. If we're willing

231
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: to just go kill some people for him, should we

232
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: do that? It became a big deal. He started working

233
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: for the largest of these mercenary companies, called the Great Company.

234
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: But here was the problem with mercenaries then and now.

235
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 1: Remember and remember now, all mercenaries are not the same.

236
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,239
Speaker 1: We have b K, former Air Force PJ coming on

237
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 1: this show every single week, every Tuesday. He comes on

238
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: this show. B K was a mercenary for a decade.

239
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 1: He's openly talks about it. They call him pmc's Private

240
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: Military Contractors. But that's just a nicer way to say mercenary.

241
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 1: Then and now, though mercenaries can run the gamut. B

242
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,160
Speaker 1: K was obviously one of the ones who worked with

243
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: the federal government for a cause that was always pro American.

244
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: But there are plenty of mercenary groups out there, and

245
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: hear me out, plenty of mercenary groups out there who

246
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: are more than happy to go in and liquidate a

247
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: village for you if you'd like, oh, some natural resources

248
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: in there. Do I have any problem killing all the villagers? No? No,

249
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. Neither do my men here. Pay me.

250
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 1: Mercenaries are a funny breed, and they've been around since

251
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: time began. But you run into this particular situation if

252
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:12,360
Speaker 1: you have too many of them. Sometimes, if you're a mercenary,

253
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 1: sometimes there's nobody for you to fight. What if you're

254
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 1: in between jobs? What if you're long in between jobs?

255
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,239
Speaker 1: And do these sound like the type of men who

256
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: have a four oh one K? I gotta make sure. Look,

257
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,640
Speaker 1: I have to put so many of these. I need

258
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 1: stock options here, I have to make sure I have

259
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 1: a monthly stipend, just have to save for a rainy day.

260
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: Do those sound like the kind of men we're dealing with.

261
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,400
Speaker 1: Believe me, it's not. And I'm not saying they're idiots,

262
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: but men like that especially young military aged males. I

263
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: was that one. They don't save money. You live for

264
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: them now, because you're always on the end of death

265
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 1: in your mind. These guys blow through their money as

266
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: fast as they make it. And now you're a mercenary company.

267
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: You're very tough, you're very powerful. You you and all

268
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 1: your friends, you're together, and you know you're really good,

269
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: and there's nobody to pay you. And let's say, let's

270
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: say you don't have necessarily the best moral compass in

271
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: the world. Well, good old fashioned extortion has paid a

272
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: lot of bills. What they would do is they would start,

273
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 1: they would pick a powerful city state or powerful lord,

274
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: powerful anything, and they would simply start pillaging his land. Yes,

275
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: they wanted the goods and services, they wanted the food

276
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 1: and gold they were taking, but more than anything else,

277
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 1: they wanted the city state to go. Please stop. What

278
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 1: will it take to make you stop? Oh, just a

279
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: very large payment right now, and then we'll go away.

280
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 1: And this is something that Hawkwood would do with his

281
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 1: mercenaries throughout his lifetime, consistently, consistently, and it is large stale,

282
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 1: large scale extortionism. It's no different than that Italian mafia scene.

283
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 1: You've seen in the movies A thousand times were two

284
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: big goons walk in the mom and pop shop and

285
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 1: grab the guy by the collar and say, I'll be

286
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: back for buy fifty bucks again tomorrow and every day

287
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: after that. Have my money ready, same thing, only Hawkwood

288
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 1: and his guys simply made it official. We still have

289
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: the records of it. He would say, Oh, I'll back

290
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: off sure for a period of three years, for this

291
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: amount of time. After three years, I can come back

292
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: and do whatever I want, but you sign the contract.

293
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: I'll stop murdering you for three years. Sound good. And

294
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 1: they were so wealthy, the city states were, and they

295
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: wanted these guys gone so much they routinely paid it.

296
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: These guys start pillaging the countryside. The pope steps up

297
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: and excommunicates Hawkwood and his entire company, the entire great,

298
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 1: great company. They've killed, murdered, raped so many times, get

299
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: out And then what do you know, as it happened

300
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: so often, the very same pope who had just excommunicated

301
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: their great company, found himself in yet another rivalry situation

302
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: with a powerful wealthy family in city state in Italy.

303
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 1: So he goes to the company he just excommunicated and says,

304
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: are you guys looking for a job. Hang on, I'm

305
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 1: gonna try to wrap this up before we get to

306

Speaker 1: org a public service announcement brought to you by the

319
00:22:41,720 --> 00:23:00,160
Speaker 1: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the AD Council. If

320
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:04,200
Speaker 1: you just heard your cocaine question, I found it curious.

321
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,120
Speaker 1: There is six hundred and forty nine kilos, not six fifty.

322
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: But you know, under the right circumstances, yeah, you know,

323
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 1: I'd tell one or two just to you know, make

324
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: some money. I mean, people don't understand how many guys

325
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 1: are out there doing it anyway, if you know, low

326
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: risk risk were words. I love you guys so much.

327
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: The question yesterday, it wasn't even a question. It was

328
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: just a random story. Somebody found an abandoned boat with

329
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 1: six hundred forty nine kilos of cocaine on it and

330
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: called the cops, and it was a morality question of

331
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: what you would do. It's Jesse Kelly. You can find

332
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: me on social media at Jesse Kelly DC on Twitter,

333
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: at Jesse Kelly DC on Instagram. It's I'm on Facebook.

334
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 1: I'm on parlor for sure, because I'm sure I'm gonna

335
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: get run out of all the others here pretty soon.

336
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: We have to talk about Florida Governor Ron De Santis

337
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: today and why I want to give you a little

338
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,879
Speaker 1: bit of caution there, just a little caution. I'm not

339
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: gonna be bagging on heavy d I like him a lot. Well,

340
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 1: this a little caution vegetarianism, all right, But we're gonna

341
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: try to wrap this up. The Pope first excommunicates the

342
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: great company, this company of mercenaries in the thirteen hundreds,

343
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: with John Hawkwood in there, and then he hires them,

344
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: hires them to go take on one of these city

345
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: states in Italy. They march down to Italy. They start

346
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: wearing this highly, highly shiny, very pale armor, and they

347
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: change their name to become the White Company, which will

348
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: probably get you in quite a bit of trouble if

349
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 1: you try that today. They become famous because John Hawkwood,

350
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: for all of his lack of more roles, if you

351
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 1: want to say, John Hawkwood, is a bad man when

352
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 1: it comes to combat. Some people are just simply naturally

353
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: gifted at combat. These mercenary companies, the leaders were always

354
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 1: voted on by the men. Hawkwood shoots up through the

355
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: ranks and they're like, this is our guy. They had

356
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 1: ambush tactics at a time where people weren't ambushing that much.

357
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 1: They would attack at night. Nobody used to attack at night.

358
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: Let's let's clear something up right here. Night attacks look

359
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 1: very very very cool in the movies, and I'll tell

360
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: you full disclosure, they look really cool in real life too.

361
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: Looks like Star Wars out there, tracers going back and forth. However,

362
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 1: especially historically before there were flares, you could shoot up

363
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: in the air so you can see and so on

364
00:25:54,600 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: and so forth. Historically, night attacks were very, very very

365
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 1: communication was difficult, visibility was difficult, so much of the

366
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: time these armies would communicate with each other by different

367
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,199
Speaker 1: flags and flag seaton, which you couldn't do it at night.

368
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: It was just a night attack in ancient times was

369
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 1: very rare, very rare. These guys managed to perfect it,

370
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: and they start slaughtering people. They start winning all their battles,

371
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 1: and they would pull some of the dirtiest stuff you

372
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: can imagine. You see, here's the situation. These city states

373
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: didn't really have armies of their own. They had to

374
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: rely on mercenaries, so there were all kinds of mercenary

375
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: groups out there. Well, if you're a mercenary company and

376
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: this city says one hundred thousand dollars, one hundred thousand dollars,

377
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 1: we want you to go attack this city state, and

378
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: you say, okay, well pay me all my money now,

379
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 1: So they pay you all one hundred thousand dollars, you

380
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 1: go attack the other city state, and that city state says, well,

381
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 1: we'll pay you one hundred and fifty to turn around

382
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: and go attack them. And these guys would routinely say, oh, okay,

383
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 1: we'll take that one hundred fifty two, and you don't

384
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 1: exactly pay back the hundred. So then you have situations

385
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 1: where Hawkwood would finally he started running into companies would

386
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: start because city states would start telling the mercenary companies, well,

387
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 1: we'll pay you one hundred thousand, but it's fifty thousand,

388
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: now fifty thousand. When the job's done, we don't want

389
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: you to switch inside. So Hawkwood would take to fifty

390
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,120
Speaker 1: grand and then just go sit out and say, well,

391
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 1: I'm not moving until you give him my other fifty.

392
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: And because you don't have their arms, and he's running

393
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: the best show in town, he's got you by the gonads.

394
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: You can't do anything about that. And he spends decades

395
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: doing this. Florence and Pisa are at war. He signs

396
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: with Pisa. They're laying siege to places. And Hawkwood was

397
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 1: famous for doing things like if he had if he

398
00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 1: had a city under siege, he would march up to

399
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: the walls and play music at night so they couldn't

400
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: go to sleep. He was just it was just an

401
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: insane life. And again, in between jobs, because contracts would

402
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 1: run out, in between jobs, they would go just start

403
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: pillaging places and they would sign agreements. They signed an

404
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: agreement with a with a big with a major one

405
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: like Florence, and say okay, well one hundred thousand dollars,

406
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,919
Speaker 1: and Florence would say A hundred thousand dollars for what?

407
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 1: And he would say, WHOA one hundred thousand dollars and

408
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: I won't attack you for five years. He's not even

409
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: working for anybody at the time. Just blatant extortion. And

410
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 1: I don't know whether you can admire it be shocked

411
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: by it. There are a thousand little tales I'm not

412
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: going to go into today about Hawkwood, but he eventually

413
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: amasses so much wealth. He's as wealthy as some of

414
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: the city states. And he gets started, he starts to

415
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: get more than just money he has by the time

416
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: he's done, he has a lifetime pension from Naples. He

417
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: receives money every month from Naples. He has estates that

418
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 1: he's been given all over Italy. The Pope at one

419
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: point in time hires him again, and Hawkwood pulls the

420
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: old trick of refusing to fight until the pope ponies

421
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: up all the money and then switches sides. Then after

422
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 1: the Pupe it hired him, and he switched sides, goes

423
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 1: back to working for the pope and starts pillaging things again.

424
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: Now people are blaming the pope. It actually started a

425
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: war against the Pope because Hawkwood was un the Pope's

426
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 1: employee when he was out there pillaging anybody. I should clarify.

427
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 1: The guy's life tale is very fascinating. It is very fascinating. However,

428
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 1: there's a lot of ugliness in there, a lot of

429
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 1: what you call blatant murder in there. They massacred in

430
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,719
Speaker 1: entire city one time. It didn't go well for the

431
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: women in that city. They ran into this city, they

432
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 1: pillaged it for all the goods. It went very poorly

433
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: for the women in the city. And then Hawkwood sold

434
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: the city to another lord over the city itself. Just

435
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 1: simply said, hey, it's for sale for fifty grand, you

436
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: can come have it. A guy bought the city. The

437
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: guy ends up living to an old old age. I

438
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,160
Speaker 1: believe he was sixty nine or seventy years old before

439
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: he died, which is ancient for this period in time.

440
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 1: But died an absurdly wealthy man with children married off

441
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: to royalty all over Italy. Who would they would marry?

442
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 1: They would marry his daughters just to keep the guy

443
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 1: away from him. John Hawkwood is his name. He is

444
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 1: the most famous mercenary of all time. And that is

445
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 1: the ultimate thirty thousand foot view of John Hawkwood's life.

446
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 1: Believe me when I tell you you could do a

447
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 1: three hour show on this freaking guy. But I promised

448
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: you we would try to get to as many of

449
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 1: these ask Doctor Jesse questions as we could today, and

450
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 1: we will remember it's an ask Doctor Jesse Friday. You

451
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 1: can email your questions in during the show. They are

452
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,719
Speaker 1: more than welcome to do so. You are more than

453
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: welcome to do so. Chris gets them throughout the show,

454
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 1: prints them out for me. I'm going to try to

455
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: be better about not getting distracted and get to as

456
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 1: many of them as I possibly can today. But imagine

457
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: what that is like as a city state to pay

458
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: someone not to kill you. I think you and I

459
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 1: take things for granted. Sometimes I know I do. Maybe

460
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: you don't, but I know I do. The times we

461
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 1: live in even now, yeah, we're obviously not going well culturally.

462
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: To put it mildly, it's not going well culturally. Things

463
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: are shifting the wrong way in the country, and we

464
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: have moments you know we just lost an election. We

465
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: have these moments where we think this sucks. Dah, we

466
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:14,479
Speaker 1: got it tough. Imagine what it's like to wake up

467
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 1: in the morning, look outside of your city and see

468
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: you're surrounded by mercenaries and know you have to pay

469
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 1: them not to murder you. A little perspective in life.

470
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: Ain't bad, all right. I've been wrongly convicted of first

471
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 1: degree murder and I have a choice to make. Hang.

472
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Jesse Kelly Show. You're welcome. You

473
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 1: know your house smells. Don't get mad. Don't get mad

474
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: in my house smells too. I'm I'm not indicting you.

475
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure you keep a clean home, but just time

476
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 1: means you're going to acquire smells that those are cooking

477
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: smells that get in your paint, your carpet, maybe their

478
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: animals smells. Maybe you're a smoker, or someone else was

479
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: just living create smells. I didn't realize that my home

480
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 1: had a smell to it until I got my first

481
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 1: Eden Pure Thunderstorm, the greatest air purifier I've ever owned

482
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: in my life. This thing, I had it plugged in

483
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 1: for two hours. I came back in the room and

484
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: my air smell so clean. I now owned three of them.

485
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: I'm not making that up. This thing has absolutely changed
