I'm not I'm not indicting you. 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure you keep a clean home, but just time 4 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 1: means you're going to acquire smells. Whether those are cooking 5 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: smells that get in your paint, your carpet, maybe their 6 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,600 Speaker 1: animals smells. Maybe you're a smoker, or someone else was 7 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 1: just living create smells. I didn't realize that my home 8 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: had a smell to it until I got my first 9 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: Eden Pure Thunderstorm, the greatest air purifier I've ever owned 10 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: in my life.

This is a Jesse Kelly show. I want 20 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: you to imagine a nuclear bomb going off in Los Angeles. 21 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: Think about that. Think about a nuclear weapon blowing up 22 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles. I don't want you to just picture 23 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: what it would look like at the time. You know, 24 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: everybody can picture the muff, mushroom cloud, things like that. 25 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: I want you to think about what that would mean 26 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,399 Speaker 1: about four million people in La proper. I'm sure it's 27 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: ten million plus La metro. The loss of life, the 28 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: property damage, the national devastation, the national humiliation, the sorrow, 29 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,679 Speaker 1: everything that would come with it. Yeah, Chris says, there's 30 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: nineteen million La metro. I want you to picture every 31 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: part of what it would look like if a nuclear 32 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: weapon blew up in downtown Los Angeles. And we will 33 00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: get to that in just a moment. But first, I 34 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: hear many things today, many many things of people in 35 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: our current environment, and people in the past and people 36 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: in the future. I'm not indicting people today, but I 37 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 1: hear things from people that tell me something. And you 38 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: know what it tells me. It tells me people as 39 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: a coping mechanism, as a as as just a symptom 40 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: of avoiding reality, which can be admittedly harsh. People lie 41 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: to themselves all the time, you do, I do, Jewish 42 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: producer Chris does people lie to themselves. I didn't work 43 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: out today. I'll tell you did not wake up and 44 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: work out. I'm gonna work out tomorrow, though, for the 45 00:03:54,600 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: next thirty days straight. That's a lie, that's a lot 46 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: that's not true. But it's what you tell yourself in 47 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: the moment. Right. So on that note, let us rewind 48 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: for just a little bit and talk a little bit 49 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: about the Russian Revolution. I'll keep this as brief as 50 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: humanly possible today because the Russian Revolution is complicated and 51 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: it is without question the most important event of the 52 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: entire twentieth century. Nine I want you to wrap your 53 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 1: mind around this. When you consider everything that communism has 54 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: done since the Russian Revolution, and I mean all of it, 55 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: from Maud to Stalin to Pullpot, and those are the 56 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: high points. I want you to think about what communism 57 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: has meant for various Latin America countries Cuba. I want 58 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: you to think about what it has meant the spread 59 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 1: of communism for our own country, the United States of America. 60 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,239 Speaker 1: There are many people out there, myself included, who say 61 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: we lost this country when the Commun's infiltrated our education system. 62 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: When you sit back and take in what communism has 63 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: meant for the world. The Russian Revolution is the most 64 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 1: important thing that happened in the twentieth century, and yet 65 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: ninety five percent of the population at least can't tell 66 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: you one thing about it. You know, it was wild 67 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: is I've done a bunch of reading on the Russian Revolution, 68 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: but consume everything on it, I can't. So I find 69 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: the whole thing about it fascinating. Society's shifting and rebelling 70 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: and things. I mean, Russia is such a fascinating place. Anyway, 71 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 1: So last night I got a little time to myself. 72 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: Kiddos are running around playing, the wife's watching one of 73 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: our shows, are doing something. I wasn't really paying attention. 74 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: But I've had about an hour and I thought, you know, 75 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: I bet you money, there's a cool documentary out there 76 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: or two on the Russian Revolution. I mean, there's a 77 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: there's a documentary on everything. Right, you got to go 78 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: to Amazon Prime and do a search. There's documentaries on 79 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: I mean, not everything, but tangnier. Somebody's made at least 80 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: a crappy one somewhere at some point in time. Now, 81 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 1: remember what I just said about this being the most 82 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: important event of the twentieth century. There was hardly anything 83 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: on it. People just don't talk about it. They don't 84 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: know about it. When you talk about the Soviet Union, 85 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: people go right to Stalin as if it just one 86 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 1: day he appeared there. But this came from something, It 87 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: came from something, and it came from something. Not just America, 88 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 1: but every country in the world had better learn and 89 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: study because societies shift. And there is one thing, one 90 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: lie you've been telling yourself, and I'll admit I've told 91 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: myself that we have got to dump and we are 92 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: going to learn that lesson from the Communist Revolution, from 93 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: the Russian Revolution. Today. Let's begin really quickly here pre 94 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: Russian Revolution, Russia was ruled by tsars. We're talking three 95 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: hundred years autocratic tsars. And all monarchies are not created equal. 96 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: As you well know because you listen to this show. 97 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: There are all powerful kings who are basically the gods 98 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: on earth. There are kings who are certainly in charge, 99 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: but they don't definitely don't really want to get cross 100 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: with the nobles. There are there are kings who are 101 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: definitely in charge, but they really don't want to get 102 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: cross with the p with the priests. There are kings 103 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: you are in charge, and honestly, they don't really want 104 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: to get cross with the people. The people have been 105 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: really rambunctious lately. I don't know what's going on. There 106 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: are various levels of power when it comes to monarchies. 107 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: In Russia, the Tsars, this Romanov dynasty, they were very 108 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: powerful because Russia, which is difficult for us to picture 109 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: now because they went so atheistic during the Kami Revolution. 110 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: Russia was deeply, deeply religious, and they thought the Romanovs 111 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: were God's representative on earth. But that began to fade 112 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: over time. You see Russia, as gigantic as it was, 113 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: was eighty percent peasants, I mean peasants, farmers. You think 114 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: of this jet, you look at it on a map, right, 115 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: you've sewed it. You can picture it right now, don't 116 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: even have to tell you to look it up today. 117 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: You can picture. It's vast, but it's farmland. Man, with 118 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: all due respect, you need to picture it like Iowa. 119 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: You need to picture it like a bigger version of Iowa, 120 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 1: not a bigger version of New York City. It's just 121 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 1: spread out rural farmland. Doesn't make them good, doesn't make 122 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: them bad, but it's not modern and Russia is having 123 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: a difficult time modernizing in a way that doesn't completely 124 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: destroy the poor people and run the middle class into poverty. 125 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,199 Speaker 1: They're starting up factories, they're starting up major portions of industry, 126 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: but only a few people have the means to gobble 127 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: those parts up. And so what you have have in 128 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: Russia is rule by one guy. Remember one guy. But 129 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,439 Speaker 1: you have a bunch of rich people starting up these industries, 130 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: and there's nothing left for the middle class. There's nothing 131 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: left for the poor in Russia's urban environment. You know 132 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: what the average people per apartment was in the urban 133 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: environment as the population exploded and all the jobs got 134 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: in there. Do you want to know? Hang on, I'll 135 00:10:30,640 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: tell you truth attitude, Jesse kill. You need an auto 136 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: protection plan because the truth is this, and everybody knows 137 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: this is true. We don't like to think about it, 138 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: we don't like to talk about it, but everyone knows 139 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: this is true. You're gonna have car problems. It's like 140 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: getting sick. When you're not sick, you don't think about 141 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: getting sick, and then when you are sick, it's the 142 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: worst thing in the history of the world. And you 143 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: don't know how you didn't appreciate being healthy or more. 144 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: Same thing with a car. I'm a car's running fine, 145 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: everything's fine, everything's fine, and then the engine goes and 146 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: you're basically poor and miserable. Get an auto protection plan 147 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: and get one with car shield. There's a reason there. 148 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:47,959 Speaker 1: America's number one auto protection plan company. They offer you 149 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: a wide range of plans. They even offer you flexible payments. 150 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: You choose the mechanic.

You want 153 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: to know how rough it was as they transition their 154 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: economy in the Soviet Union, Well, Russia at the time 155 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: sixteen people per apartment, absolute squalor and the social services 156 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: were a disaster. Basic things, water sewer. Russia is having 157 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: a hard time modernizing. Now we have that. I want 158 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: you to also understand something else. Czar Nicholas the Second, 159 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: who was now the czar, the man in charge. He 160 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: was one never supposed to be in charge. It was 161 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 1: supposed to be his older brother. His older brother died. 162 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 1: You see, Nicholas the Second's father had groomed and trained 163 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: his older brother to run the empire. Brother dies. Now 164 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,559 Speaker 1: it falls to Nicholas. Nicholas is not only untrained, doesn't 165 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: want to be there, admits it openly. I don't really 166 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: want this, Okay, Well, that's a problem. That's a big 167 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: problem when you have people feeling really oppressed in your 168 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: own country, feeling as if there are halves and have 169 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: not sound familiar at all. You're going to discuss that 170 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: a little later here. But when people feel as if 171 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: there are well the in crowd and the outcrowd, that 172 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: is starting to get to be a dangerous situation, and 173 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: they feel like the leader is week nineteen oh five, 174 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: there was a revolution in Russia. I know what you're thinking, 175 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: but Jesse, that's not when the Russian revolution was. That's right, 176 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: it failed and had to get put down brutally by 177 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: Czar Nicholas. The second you see, we say things when 178 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: I talk about history all the time about there was 179 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: a revolution and they put it down. Well, that is 180 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: a one sentence explanation for what that means. That means 181 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: people died. That means almost undoubtedly there were people thrown 182 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: in prison, shot tortured. That means it was ugly funerals 183 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: after this Russian revolution nineteen oh five, failed revolution in 184 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: nineteen oh five. Czar Nicholas the Second allows the formation 185 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: of something you actually do need to remember, not really 186 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: for this story, but just in general. He allowed the 187 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: formation of what was called the Duma. It was a congress. Okay, 188 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: you could elect, you could elect some representatives, but because 189 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: autocrat are gonna autocrat, he allowed the people to have 190 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: a douma. But the douma had no power whatsoever, and 191 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: I mean none whatsoever. Okay, you can have a you 192 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: can have an elected you can have elected government. Sure 193 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: that'll go well. And there were two other things plaguing 194 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: Czar Nicholas the Second as we advanced through the early 195 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: part of the twentieth century. One his wife. I am 196 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: not indicting his wife, but his wife had two gigantic 197 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: negative checks against her and the minds of the Russian people. One, 198 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: he was weak and she was not one of these strong, hill, 199 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: strong willed, bullheaded women, which that's going to come off 200 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: poorly in a more conservative, religious, male dominated Russian society. 201 00:15:53,600 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: That's one. Two she was German. Remember this, You and 202 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: I don't understand this world because he's never been involved 203 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: in this world. All the old monarchies. This king, this kaiser, 204 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: this monarchist, they all married each other, always for political purposes. Always. 205 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: That's not something that just existed in ancient times. You 206 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: listen to my show, so you know, well, this king 207 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: would give away this daughter. Oh, please marry my sister. 208 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: That was existing still very much so in the early 209 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: nineteenth century. Oh you want to forge alliances, Well, hey man, 210 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: what marry my cousin? Please? That was not good to 211 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: put it mildly, when you start fighting a war against Germany, 212 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: a deeply unpopular war called World War One. And it's 213 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: not as if it was unpopular everywhere in equal amounts. 214 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: During World War One, you had a country that was 215 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: fresh off a failed revolution. People are already angry, people 216 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,880 Speaker 1: are starving, people are mad about the living conditions, and 217 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: now you're conscripting them into the army in droves and 218 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: taking them to a miserable war where they are dying 219 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: by the hundreds of thousands. You have taken an extremely 220 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: volatile situation with a week leader and his wife and 221 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: World War One, and you've dropped a gigantic flaming match 222 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 1: inside of it. And I haven't even mentioned Rasputin because 223 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: he can be his entire show. Let me just do 224 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 1: a brief few sentences on him so you realize this 225 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 1: was a very big deal. Remember Russia was conservative religious 226 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: god Church Czar Nicholas the second and his wife. They 227 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 1: have a bunch of daughters, which is a problem because 228 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 1: you can't hand the daughter the throne. Finally, they have 229 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 1: a son, the Son Great Born. Who Oh, he's a hemophiliac. 230 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,679 Speaker 1: He's one of those people who can't stop bleeding. A 231 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: big deal today, a death sentence. Back then, they had 232 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: to be careful with him at all times. He would fall, 233 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: bruise himself, almost die, and by all accounts, to their credit, 234 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: they were very loving parents, very loving parents. They find 235 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 1: this guy from Siberia. I swear every time I read 236 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: something about Rasputin, I feel like the guy was a 237 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: movie character. He was. It was a peasant from Siberia 238 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 1: who got trained in religion. If you look up pictures 239 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: to him to this day, you will feel like, even 240 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: his black and white pictures, his eyes are staring into 241 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 1: your soul. I guess he had gray eyes or blue eyes, 242 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: and he grows up and becomes this I don't know 243 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: if I'm allowed to use this word. Priests slash holy man, 244 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: only priest slash holy man who would routinely get blackout 245 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:17,959 Speaker 1: drunk and enjoy himself with ladies of the night and 246 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 1: regular ladies and any other lady who happened to be willing. 247 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: The dude was just an absolute dog, a utter disaster 248 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: of a human being. However, he gets brought into the palace. 249 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: Now you're saying, why would they do that? Because the 250 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: guy had convinced the czar and his wife that he 251 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 1: could heal their son, and there are several times where 252 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: he did something and made the boy better, at least 253 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: in their minds. Well, I know what you're thinking, why 254 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: does this matter? Well, the public is furious about him. 255 00:19:56,359 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 1: The newspapers are printing terrible things about him. The nobles 256 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: in the country are getting angry that this guy has 257 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:10,880 Speaker 1: influenced who is this low life peasant, scumbag drunk. It's 258 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: creating huge scandals. So now what you've got is a 259 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: powder keg, And it really was World War One that 260 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 1: broke it. World War One was standing over the gigantic 261 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: vat of black powder, lighting not a match, an entire 262 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: book of them, and dropping it at hindsight is twenty twenty. 263 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 1: There was simply no way for Russia to get involved 264 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 1: in World War One, with the way that war was 265 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: going to have to be fought and still remain the 266 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 1: same country it was. It was impossible. There was no 267 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: way it was going to happen. Now we send a 268 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: bunch of guys off to war people where mad people 269 00:20:55,880 --> 00:21:01,880 Speaker 1: are hungry. We have women who are now involved heavily 270 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: in the workforce because they're sending all the men to 271 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: the front. So you need the women to man these 272 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: factories you're building. You're trying to industrialize, trying to send resources, 273 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 1: you know, bombs, bullets and such to the front. Women 274 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: get involved, only there's not enough food to feed the workers. 275 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: Kids are starving, women are starving, and then a big, 276 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: big thing happened. One in three adults has pre diabetes. 277 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: One in three. That means it could be you your 278 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: football buddy, your football buddy, or you your best man, 279 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 1: your worst mass. You you're a dog walker, you're a 280 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 1: cat jugger. While one in three adults has pre diabetes. 281 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: With early diagnosis, pre diabetes can be reversed. Take the 282 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: risk test and do I have pre diabetes dot org? 283 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: That's do I have pre diabetes dot org?

I will clarify what I meant by 296 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: the nuclear bomb going off in Los Angeles. Later on 297 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 1: in the show. I will clarify a couple things about 298 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 1: where we are now and the lies we're telling ourselves. 299 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 1: Later on the show. We do have a history professor 300 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,719 Speaker 1: coming on later on. Today, Chris, this is intimidating somebody 301 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: who actually knows what he's talking about. Oh, but mostly 302 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: let's be honest. What we're gonna have today is me 303 00:23:54,440 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: and what Chris, what else do we need nothing. A 304 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: rebellion breaks out, A pretty calm rebellion breaks out into 305 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: the streets of Russian Now, when I say calm, I 306 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 1: don't want to act like they were holding hands and 307 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: saying prayers. But it wasn't that bad. However, you're the czar, 308 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 1: you have a war going on, you need the factories going, 309 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 1: you need things to run right. It is a balancing 310 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 1: act for these guys always whether to give them the 311 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 1: hammer or give them the sugar. It is, it always is, 312 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 1: it always has been. It's always easy to armchair this 313 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 1: for you or I, depending on your personality. Pete, people 314 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: are rebelling in the streets, I'll just give them, just 315 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: give them what they want, give them the day off 316 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,719 Speaker 1: and a back rub. Then they'll be fine. And then 317 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,919 Speaker 1: there's the other type of person. You'll see dudes this 318 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: way a lot. I'll be honest, this is my instinct 319 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: most of the time. Send in the troops and billy 320 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: clubs someone in the head. Well the troops is. You 321 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: have to find the right balance, in the right solution 322 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: for the right time. There are times you should give 323 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,199 Speaker 1: them some sugarcubes in a BackRub, and there are times 324 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: where you should billy club, somebody across the face the 325 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: key is knowing when and what well. The Tzar simply 326 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: does not have He doesn't have the public support anymore 327 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 1: to do what he does, and that is send in 328 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: the troops. He sends in the troops to attack his 329 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: own citizens, to beat them back. But in this moment, 330 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 1: and I'll admit, while I'm obviously no fan of the 331 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: Russian Revolution for clear reasons, in what I would love 332 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: to have seen is a pretty cool moment. The troops 333 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: show up to put down this rebellion, and the troops 334 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: join the rebellion, just cross over to the other side 335 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 1: and join the rebellion. Now we have a huge problem. 336 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: I'm fast forwarding through several things here. It should be 337 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 1: noted the Tsar abdicates. We get to the point where 338 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: the Tsar's all, okay, clearly people are done with me. 339 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: Remember this is a guy who didn't want it anyway. 340 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 1: He can see the writing on the wall. It's over. 341 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: You guys want something else, that's fine. He abdicates, actually 342 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: tries to escape into England and is refused. They don't 343 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: let him. They don't let him in the family escape 344 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: to England. We get to back to that in a minute. 345 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: The Duma, remember that powerless Duma. They form a temporary government. 346 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: But understand, and you need to understand this well, because 347 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: this may well apply to you one day. Just because 348 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: everyone decided they hated what was did not mean that 349 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:53,679 Speaker 1: everyone had a good idea of what should be. People 350 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: were split all across this country on what they wanted. 351 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: There were tons of people who simply wanted another Autocradit 352 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: was anything they'd ever known. Many people, obviously in the Duma, 353 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: one of the Duma to rule, Let's have a representative 354 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: government of the people. And there were these people, the 355 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks. Will focus on the Bolsheviks today, 356 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 1: you should know the main difference between the two is 357 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 1: the Bolsheviks were a bit more radical, a bit more aggressive. 358 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 1: Think Lenin Stalin very much Bolsheviks. There were people who 359 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: saw this as the opportunity to bring about what they 360 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:37,880 Speaker 1: had always wanted, and that was communism. I painfully am 361 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: about to defend one of the most destructive human beings 362 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: in the history of the world, Vladimir Lenin Lenin, and 363 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: I'm going to defend him because of this. Remember, Karl 364 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: Marx wrote, he wrote about communism in the eighteen hundreds, 365 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: he was German, and everybody had these theory reads about 366 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 1: communism here and communism there, but communism hadn't really been tried. 367 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 1: And on paper, if all you've ever known is being 368 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: a poor peasant, and all anybody you know has ever 369 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: known as being a poor peasant, you have the kings 370 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 1: who have it all, and you have us, who has nothing. 371 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: And on paper, there's this new concept out there that, 372 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:30,160 Speaker 1: wait a minute, we should run everything. Do you think 373 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: that would be appealing to you? You're lying to yourself 374 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: if you say it wouldn't. And again, to defend Lennon, 375 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: which I can't believe I'm doing, it hadn't been tried yet. Yeah, 376 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: by now we know how it turns out every single time. 377 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: But in Lenin's defense, this had never been tried, certainly, 378 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: not on this kind of scale. What if what if 379 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: the whole country became a communist country? And what if 380 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: and they very much thought in these terms, what if 381 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: the whole world became communists? What if we changed the 382 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: government in all the world and the people ran everything? 383 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: And doesn't that sound good? If your poverty stricken, if 384 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: you've lived your whole life and your dad lived his 385 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: whole life, and his dad lived his whole life, and 386 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: his dad lived his whole life as some poor farmer. 387 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: Now somebody says you should be in charge. It gets appealing, 388 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: It gets very appealing. It was so appealing that Lennon, 389 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: whose older brother had been killed, it was part of 390 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: what radicalized him. That Lenin had been deported exiled from Russia. 391 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: They're like, get this guy out, and they had kicked 392 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: him out. He's living in Switzerland. Well, Germany decides, in 393 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: one of the all time bone head moves. Although I mean, 394 00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: I guess you could argue temporarily it was effective. Germany decides, 395 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: wait a minute, we're fighting this two front war. We 396 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: got Britain in France on this side, we have Russia 397 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: on the other side. There sucks. What we really need 398 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: is to fight at one front war. What's our best 399 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: opportunity to do that. How about the rickety Empire over 400 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: here in the east that looks like it's ready to 401 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: crumble any minute? Is there anything we could do to 402 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: help them along? Whoa wait a minute, this Lenin guy, 403 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: this Lenin guy, seems like he is an absolute pain 404 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: in the rear end. Why don't we get him back 405 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: to Russia. Germany goes down, snatches up Vladimir Lenin, puts 406 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: him on a train, and ships him back into the 407 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: country that had exiled him. And Lenin, who was a 408 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: wildly charismatic human being, shows up in the middle of 409 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: a gigantic workers revolution where people were starving and angry. 410 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: Do you think he was appealing at that point in time? 411 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: He stepped off the train and he was a god 412 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: giving speeches about this and speeches about that. People were 413 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:22,719 Speaker 1: hungry for it. And Lennon shows up. Remember the Duma 414 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: had formed a temporary government. Lennon shows up immediately and says, well, 415 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: they've got to go. We're not dealing with that either. 416 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: We're running things here. And he knew the Douma wasn't 417 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: powerful enough. He immediately tries the rebellion right off the bat, fails, 418 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: has to flee to Flynn to Finland, but promptly reorganizes, 419 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: comes right back and forms what was called the Red Guard. 420 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: The Red Guard storms the Dooma Palace and takes over. 421 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: December of nineteen seventeen, Lennon, who had just taken over, 422 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: he just seized power, formed something something you might want 423 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: to be aware of for your own purposes.

You see the checkout formed by Vladimir Lenin 441 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 1: and the scumbag Bolsheviks. It was simply the precursor to 442 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: the NKVD, to the KGB. All it was was a 443 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: secret police system because they realized. Lennon knew they'd had 444 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,720 Speaker 1: to do all this fighting, fighting, the doom of fighting 445 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 1: these people, fighting that those people to seize power. But 446 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: he knew for a fact people are never going to 447 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: buy into these radical ideas. They're never going to buy 448 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 1: into the elimination of private property. While someone is still 449 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: out there talking about how great private property is, we 450 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,360 Speaker 1: have to silence them. And you've heard of the red 451 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 1: terror before. Well here it is. Like I said, Lennon, 452 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: a world class scumbag simply started killing and imprisoning the 453 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: people who disagreed with him. It's not more complicated than that. 454 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 1: And it's not as if I want to single him out. Yes, 455 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: he was the leader. They were all game for it. Stalin, 456 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: I know you're gonna find this shocking. Was right there 457 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:39,240 Speaker 1: cheering everything on. But they do hold an election because 458 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: you know, you have to go for You're going for 459 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,399 Speaker 1: not only credibility with your own people, you're going for 460 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,799 Speaker 1: international credibility. The world is watching and the world is 461 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 1: scared about this revolution that just happened for a couple 462 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: of different reasons. One, they're very, very very worried that 463 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: this is going to spread into their own countries, and 464 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: it did. I should point out France had I had 465 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: to deal with a huge socialist rebellion at this point. 466 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 1: Germany was plagued by communism until Hitler took care of that. 467 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 1: It was it was just a it was a big problem. 468 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 1: They were worried about that. They were worried about their investments. 469 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:26,240 Speaker 1: You see, international business is not a new thing. International 470 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 1: business is the history of the world. And if you 471 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,800 Speaker 1: have a bunch of money invested in things in Russia 472 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden they're a communist, well that's 473 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 1: not worth anything to you now, now, is it back 474 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 1: to this? Let's wrap this thing up here. But the 475 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: thing is, they even kill the tsar, They kill the 476 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,839 Speaker 1: tsar's family. I'm not sure if the mansion is still there. 477 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: I should have looked that up. But I know, even 478 00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 1: years after the fact, you could go down to the 479 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: basement and see the pock marks in the wall, the 480 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: holes in the wall where they dragged the entire family 481 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: down to the basement. These dirty scumbag commies did and 482 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: gunned them all down, even the kids. A real dark moment. 483 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 1: I'm dark when you think about it. Yes, Chris, the 484 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: Winter Palace, it's still there. Oh that's oh, I'd like 485 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:24,439 Speaker 1: to see that. That'd be cool. The Commies do one 486 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:31,400 Speaker 1: final thing that really scares everybody but also really wakes 487 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 1: people up. You see, they they published the secret treaties. 488 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: The Commies have now taken over, while you're gonna take over, 489 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 1: and part of taking over means you get the old 490 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: boss's desk. Hey, anybody got a key for the filing cabinet? 491 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 1: And guess what you find in the old boss's desk? 492 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 1: You find treaties between France and Britain about the war. 493 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,399 Speaker 1: And remember the world is watching as their boys die 494 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,360 Speaker 1: in drows and the Commies take over and published treaties 495 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 1: showing the good guys aren't really the good guys in 496 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 1: this whole thing, showing secret communications. Oh hey, you know 497 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 1: what we'll do when this is over? You take Syria 498 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: and someone else. Oh yeah, absolutely, I'll tell you what 499 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: we'll take Constantinople. Those dirty Turks don't need that it, 500 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: You see what I mean? Made everybody have a whole 501 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: lot of egg on their face. At the end of 502 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: this all, they signed what was called the Treaty of 503 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: Brest Latosk. A lot of people don't realize that. At first, 504 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 1: the Russians tried to play hardball with the Germans to 505 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: sign that treaty and get out of the war, and 506 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: the Germans said, okay, screw you, and the Germans invaded Russia. 507 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: They did that in World War One. People don't know 508 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:49,319 Speaker 1: about this. They got within a hundred yards of Saint Petersburg, 509 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 1: and finally the Soviets were all, okay, we can't deal 510 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:53,880 Speaker 1: with this right now, and they agreed to the treaty, 511 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,240 Speaker 1: and they actually prolonged the war, not just by getting 512 00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 1: out of it, but they gave up a third of 513 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,280 Speaker 1: their territory. Were you in all kinds of their industry 514 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 1: to the Germans, and the Germans sorely needed it at 515 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 1: this time. But that's not really our lesson for today. 516 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 1: The lesson you and I need to learn is I 517 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: just told you this long story about the Russian Revolution. 518 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 1: The communists takeover of the biggest country in the world, 519 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 1: and it sounded like the people were mad at the 520 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,320 Speaker 1: old government and they wanted a new government. They wanted 521 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: to try communism. Well, you remember just a couple of 522 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 1: minutes ago when I told you about them holding elections. 523 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 1: They held an election, a free election. People. Hey, hey, 524 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 1: anybody come vote. Everybody can come vote. Let's vote on 525 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:48,359 Speaker 1: who we want in charge here. Do you know what 526 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: percentage of the vote the Bolsheviks got when the people 527 00:39:52,239 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 1: got to choose who they wanted twenty five? You know 528 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 1: what the Bolsheviks did. They simply closed the election and 529 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:10,759 Speaker 1: nullified the results. This is not a reference to our 530 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 1: election we just had.
