I dipped for so long, and 5 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: what would happen is I would decide I'm gonna quit. 6 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 1: It's bad for me. I'm gonna quit. I'm a man, 7 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 1: I don't need any help.

Will to live story? I've asked people that before. 30 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: Whenever I I find these things fascinating. I find the 31 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: limits of human endurance to be fascinating. Mental strength fascinating. 32 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: I don't know why. Maybe that's a dude thing, maybe 33 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: it's a I don't know. I find it to be fascinating. 34 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: I want to know what people can suffer through and 35 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: come out the other end, what they can overcome and 36 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: come out the other end.

It's gonna go terrible forever. 42 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: Oh wait, that wasn't true either. It's you know, a 43 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: season for everything. Well, I know what I think the 44 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: greatest story of survival is, and it's time to have 45 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: a little chat about that. Now. Let us discuss a 46 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: man and his crew stuck in Antarctica for a long 47 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: long time. The man's name was Ernest Shackleton. His father 48 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: was a doctor, wanted a young Ernest to be a doctor. 49 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: You know, family made a nice living, not wealthy, but 50 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: made a nice living. Dad's a doctor. The young earnest 51 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: he seems to be a capable lad. He should be 52 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: a doctor. But sometimes a man just has to acknowledge 53 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: what he is and what he's not. And I will 54 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: tell you, as somebody who has had a very similar 55 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: conversation with his father multiple times in this life. It's 56 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: worth it to have it. It's worth it to acknowledge 57 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: what you are. It's worth it to acknowledge what you're 58 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: not and simply embrace it. Some men are built to 59 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: be doctors and go to college and wow, you've got 60 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: the sniffles, and law, let me perform this surgery on you. 61 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 1: And there are people like and you know what, Thank 62 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: God for those men. But some men simply are made 63 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: to do other things. Ernest found himself constantly looking at 64 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: the ocean, the danger of it, and saying to himself, 65 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: I need to be out there. I need to go explore. 66 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: I need to experience adventure and danger. And I will 67 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: tell you parents, especially young parents out there, especially young women, 68 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: young mothers out there, if your boy is doing semi 69 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:07,239 Speaker 1: dangerous things, hurting himself and you can't wrap your mind 70 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: around it, understand this. That's how God made boys. That's 71 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: how they're made. That's so men can grow up and 72 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: do dangerous things to advance the society. It is a 73 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: good thing, not a bad thing within reason. Obviously, good 74 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: friend of mine, his son is always hurting himself, throwing 75 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: himself into these horrible, dangerous situations. And I'm thinking all 76 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: the time, Yeah, that's how he's made. Ernest Shackleton, at 77 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: the age of sixteen, finds himself out on the ocean. 78 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: Could have been a comfortable doctor's son. Sixteen years old, 79 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: he's out on the ocean, and we're talking late eighteen hundreds, 80 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: early sixteen, early early nineteen hundredth thing. And this we're 81 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: getting into the age where men were still floring the Earth. 82 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: And I realized they are still exploring the Earth. But 83 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: this was really the age of man had better ships 84 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: than he'd ever had before. He wanted to start finding 85 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: out exactly what was here, and man wanted to start 86 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: getting two points on the Earth that no other man 87 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 1: had gone before. This is the age of Antarctic exploration. 88 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: In the year nineteen oh one, after already living a 89 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: life of adventure, oceans, exploration, danger, Ernest Shackleton decides he's 90 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: going to try to make it to the South Pole. 91 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: That is the big goal at this point. And you 92 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: should understand Shackleton wasn't alone. This was the era where 93 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: these guys would arise in various nations. As you know, 94 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: this is that nation's explorer guy. And it was a 95 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: point of national pride, which would be kind of cool 96 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: if you think about it. It It was a point of 97 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: national pride. Our guys gonna try to make the South Pole. 98 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: We have to get there before this country's guy, or 99 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: get there before that country's guy. Right, I mean wouldn't 100 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 1: that be cool? It's basically the Olympics. And because it's 101 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: so life or death, I mean, guy's routinely died on these. 102 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: You wanted your guy to one make it and two 103 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: make it live, make it back alive. Nineteen oh one, 104 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: Shackleton tries to make it to the South Pole, does 105 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: not make it, but makes it further than any man 106 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: had ever made it before. Boom Record, already starting to 107 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: get a national name for himself nineteen oh eight, decides 108 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: he's going to try again. Tries again, fails again, but 109 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,239 Speaker 1: again makes it even further, and now he's a national hero. 110 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: He's knighted, which obviously you know is a big deal 111 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: over in the UK. This dude is a national hero, 112 00:07:55,440 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: and he's competing with other Antarctic explorers. And then nineteen eleven, 113 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: gut punch time, a Norwegian explorer makes it to the 114 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: South Pole. Shackleton's adult dream of being the first man 115 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: to do it is shattered. So Shackleton just went and 116 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: drank himself to death. Aunt, No he didn't. Shackleton just said, oh, okay, 117 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: well I'll do one better. He can be the first 118 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: guy to make the South Pole. What I'm going to 119 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: do is I'm going to be the first guy to 120 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 1: traverse the entire continent of Antarctica via the South Pole. 121 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna land on one side of his stack, on 122 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 1: frozen hellscape, and I'm going to emerge on the other 123 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 1: side of this frozen hellscape. Now see Chris is already 124 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: over there, raise in his hands, and I'll be honest 125 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: with you, I'm raising mine too. I think about this, 126 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: and maybe it's because I'm getting older. I think about 127 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: this and I think, oh gosh, that sounds awful. And 128 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: I love adventure. You know, I'm always the one trying 129 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: some stupid adventure thing, failing half the time. Always that 130 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: just Antarctica sounds awful. Being cold hurts. That's the difference 131 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: between being cold and being hot, and I've been in 132 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: the most extreme temperatures of both. Hot is obviously horrible. 133 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's wonderful, but being cold hurts your bones, 134 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: hurt your earst. Somebody in our story is gonna have 135 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: his toes cut off today. It just yeah, it just 136 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: hurts to throw yourself into Antarctica on purpose. It's wild 137 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: to me, but that's the goal. Now here's the thing 138 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: about these expeditions back then. We never get into the 139 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: stupid little details of well, how are you going to 140 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: pay for it? You know, the money doesn't just fall 141 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: from the sky. Who's going to pay for this. That's 142 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: a lot of men that have to have some money, 143 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: even though they didn't make a lot. That's a ton 144 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 1: of food supplies. You need a ship or ships. You 145 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: have to scrounge up the money to pay for it. 146 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: And it's such a dangerous trip. And the really sexy 147 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: part was gone. The South Pole had already been reached. 148 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it would be more impressive to traverse the 149 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: whole continent. But people love sexy, right, Nobody cares about 150 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: the second mission to the Moon. Nobody does. All right, 151 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about this disaster that's about the comb 152 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: And I don't just mean Joe Biden's CIA pick hang 153 00:10:37,920 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: on Jesse Kelly Bacsi in Wake Up and Text, Text 154 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: and eat, Text and catch the bus, Text and miss yours, 155 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: Stop Wait, Text and be late to work Sorry, Text 156 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:19,839 Speaker 1: and work, Text and pretend to work, Text and X 157 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: surprised when someone calls you out for not working.

It's only admitted to two 172 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: little intro You get to see my face though, which wow, 173 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: what a privilege that is?

I'll put show links 176 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: and stuff like that up there, random comments about news 177 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: of the day. It's finally something my buddy Dave Rubin 178 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: started it. It's finally something where I can't be censored ever. 179 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: I can make inappropriate jokes, and you know I will, 180 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: and you know I will, So we will get to that. 181 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: We'll get to this Joe Biden stuff. Why AOC's write 182 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,319 Speaker 1: about something. But we're going through one of the great 183 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 1: journeys of all time. Ernest Shackleton nineteen fourteen has a 184 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: hard time raising the money for this expedition to go 185 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: traverse Antarctica. And his plan is this, So you have 186 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: some frame of reference for the plan. He's going to 187 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: put into Antarctica somewhere off the coast of South America, 188 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: off the southern tip of South America. He's going to 189 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: traverse eighteen hundred miles across Antarctica and come out on 190 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: basically the New New Zealand side. That's the plan. And 191 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: if you're going to get the funding for these trips, 192 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: I mean, look, a guy like Shackleton is in it 193 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: for the adventure, for the explorer part of it, for 194 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: the for the recognition that comes with it. But nobody 195 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 1: wants to fund Earnest Shackleton's recognition campaign. So all these 196 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: trips are scientific campaigns as well. They bring photographers along, 197 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,239 Speaker 1: and there's a photographer along on Shackleton's clip or tripet. 198 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a minute. Scientists along in 199 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: doing experiments. Remember these are these are uncharted territories back then. 200 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: They don't know what's down there. They don't know what 201 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: kind of environment it really is. That I mean, this 202 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: is the moon to them. So you have to you 203 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: have to try to sell that to a university here, 204 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: a foundation here to raise the money. But they raise 205 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: the money and they take off on this ship. And 206 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: the ship is called the Endurance, which turns out to 207 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: be the most appropriate name in the history of mankind 208 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: for a ship. These men have different, different ways about them, 209 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: And I will tell you man in general back then 210 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: had a different and I would say better sense of 211 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: duty about them than men today. What do I mean 212 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: by that? Well, let me put it this way. This 213 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: is nineteen fourteen. I don't know if you're aware. There 214 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: was also another fairly big event that kicked off in 215 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: nineteen fourteen called World War One. Well after Shackleton picture 216 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: of this, Shackleton gets finally raises all the money, gets 217 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: the crew together, gets the ship, gets the supplies. This 218 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: is a grind. Remember, it takes it takes years to 219 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: set up. This journey takes off and he starts reading 220 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: in the newspaper about how the war drums are beating 221 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: in Europe and we might be going to Europe soon. 222 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: What does Shackleton do well, I screw them, I'm out 223 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: my trap. Nope, Shackleton immediately boop stops. Lets the admiralty 224 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: know in Britain. Okay, let me know. My ship and 225 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: my whole crew were all yours. Will stop everything right 226 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: now if you need us to get involved in the 227 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: war for our country. How about that sense of duty? 228 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: How about that sense of duty? Churchill and the rest 229 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: of them said no, no, no, no, you're a national hero. 230 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: You go, you go, will handle things here. And he 231 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: said off. But who checks in like they didn't have 232 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: to do that? Who checks in like that? He does? 233 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: Takes off, though, takes off towards Antarctica. They stop at 234 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: a place now we're off the southern tip of South America. Now, 235 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: and pay attention because there are a couple locations you're 236 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: gonna need to remember. They stop at a place called 237 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: South Georgia Island. They spend a month there. This is 238 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: a month with whalers. There are guys down there. Remember 239 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: whaling was huge, gigantic money back in the day. And 240 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: I mean gigantic money back in the day. I'm not 241 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: saying the whalers themselves were rich, but it was just 242 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: a huge industry. But South Georgia Island, you can go 243 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 1: ahead if you're if you're close to a computer or 244 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 1: your phone and can do so safely. Now would be 245 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: a great time to pull up some image searches of 246 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: South Georgia Island. This is not a tropical island paradise 247 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: by any stretch of the imagination. If you can't look, 248 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: it's either barren by the ocean or gigantic ice mountains, 249 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 1: and I mean big ones, frozen or nearly frozen rivers. 250 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 1: It looks like, well, hell if it was cold instead 251 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: of hot. The men stop there for a month. They 252 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: talk a lot to the whalers down there, trying to 253 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: one get the lay of the land, figure out about 254 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: the currents, figure out about the ocean ice situation, which 255 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 1: is a huge problem for any kind of cold exploration. 256 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: The men get a lot of a lot of stuff 257 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: from the whalers, stuck up on more supplies, and then 258 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: they take off for Antarctica. And it takes six weeks. 259 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: They travel one thousand miles, and this entire time they 260 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: had been warned extensively. The ocean ice is really bad 261 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: in the area you're going, and this year is a 262 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: really bad year for ocean ice anyway. And they are 263 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 1: battling this ocean ice on this ship. It's a big 264 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: sailing ship. You can go see a picture of the 265 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 1: Endurance if you want. Like I said, there are pictures 266 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: of it. It's a beautiful, beautiful sailing ship. But they're 267 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: battling ocean ice, trying to navigate their way through treacherous waters, 268 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: and it's getting bad, and it's getting worse, and it's 269 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 1: getting worse, and it's getting worse. As they approach Antarctica, 270 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: where their plan is to unload the ship and then 271 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: traverse Antarctica. The point of this whole journey is to 272 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 1: go from sea to see He wants me the first 273 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: man to do it. They battle their way through the ice, 274 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: and as they get close to Antarctica, the ice starts 275 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: to get thicker and thicker and thicker. And finally, after 276 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: six weeks at sea and a thousand miles across the water, 277 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 1: they find themselves one day away from Antarctica, one day 278 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 1: away from where they're going to be well, not safe, 279 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: but finally get to put on to the actual continent 280 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: and take off, and when they're one day away, the 281 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: ice surrounds their boat and locks them in. They are 282 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: now on a sailing boat at a place colder than 283 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: you can imagine. They're still in the ocean, remember, but 284 00:19:55,440 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 1: completely surrounded by ice and stuck and they cannot move. 285 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: And I can't stress this enough. This is the year 286 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: nineteen fourteen. There's not a coastguard you can call. There's 287 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: not a phone for you to use on the ship anyway. 288 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,199 Speaker 1: There's not a radio, there's not FedEx. There's not a 289 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: satellite phone, no helicopter, no satellite is going to look 290 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: down and see you from outer space. You are now 291 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: not even on the continent of Antarctica, in a sailing vessel, 292 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: trapped on the ice in the ocean. Immediately what goes 293 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: through your mind? And the ice doesn't break away. The 294 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 1: ice continues to enclose around them and lock them in. 295 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 1: Only the ice. The ice isn't attached to anything like 296 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:58,439 Speaker 1: land either. You're now floating wherever the ice wants you 297 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 1: to float. Your stuck in a big best way I 298 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: can describe it, You're stuck in a big ice cube, 299 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: floating wherever it wants you to go. You no longer 300 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 1: have control of anything as you as you float through 301 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 1: frozen hell, absolute frozen hell. This is nineteen fifteen. Now. 302 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: They've been on this journey for a long time, and 303 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 1: what they're starting to find out is, Wow, this thing 304 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: is a lot scarier and more dire than we could imagine. 305 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: You know what they discovered.

Eight seven seven three seven seven four 332 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 1: three seven three eight seven seven three seven seven four 333 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: three seven three Jesse at Jesse Kelly show dot Com. 334 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: I'm worried I might go a little long and the 335 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: history segment today. Guess how sorry I am about that. 336 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 1: It's too good. It's too good. But all right. It's 337 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: nineteen fifteen. Shackleton's on this expedition to Antarctica, him twenty 338 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: eight dudes. One day from Antarctica, the ship gets trapped 339 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: in the ice. Ice gets too thick around them and 340 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: starts drifting the ship away. Now that's when they find 341 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: out about the worst thing in the world. Not only 342 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: are they trapped in the ice, not only is the 343 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 1: ice forcing them to go wherever the ice drifts to. 344 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: The ice is getting thicker and stronger. As the ice 345 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 1: gets thicker and stronger, it's crushing their ship. Their ship 346 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 1: is now starting to disintegrate, explode, whatever way you want 347 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: to describe it. Think how strong the wood is to 348 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 1: build one of these old ships to endure the battering 349 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 1: it would take in the ocean. They would hear they 350 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 1: would hear their ship crumbling, and they said it sounded 351 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 1: like a cannon or a firework going off every time 352 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: one of the planks on the ship would snap from 353 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: the ice crumbling around it. And this is their living quarters. Remember, 354 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: this is everything to them. At the time, they know 355 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: that it's probably inevitable the ice is going to destroy 356 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: their ship completely. They pack up all their stuff and 357 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:36,719 Speaker 1: stay fairly close by the ship, but move onto the ice. 358 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 1: They're now living on a gigantic block of ice. And 359 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 1: you can see a picture of this as well, intense 360 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 1: and sleeping bags. As their ship continues to explode and 361 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: crumble and slowly get engulfed with the ocean. Four months, 362 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: these men live on ice as their ship explodes. And 363 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 1: you want to know another danger. It's not just the 364 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 1: cold and the ice and the starvation. They're hunting penguins 365 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: and seals by the way to try to supplement their 366 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: diet and stay alive. It's not just the cold, it's 367 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: the warmth. What I mean by warmth is this. Oh, 368 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: they're not going to die of heat stroke, but this 369 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: ice they're living on, it's only ice. There's no land 370 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: underneath it. And remember they're a drift at sea. Should 371 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: they drift into warmer waters, warmer weather, they're dead. The 372 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 1: ice does begin to crack around them. They're camping on 373 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,239 Speaker 1: this they have to put up a fire watch in 374 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: the middle of the night. One man has to stay 375 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 1: up and keep watch to make sure the ice doesn't 376 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: crack out underneath the tents and drop a man in 377 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 1: the ocean. Except whoops, one night it does. Picture this 378 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: worst wake up in the hiss of mankind. I don't 379 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: know what yours is. It probably isn't as bad as 380 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: this guy's. He's asleep in the Arctic, freezing cold in 381 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 1: his tent on an ice block. Boom, it cracks underneath 382 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: him and drops him in his sleeping bag in the 383 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 1: Arctic ocean. Shackleton, by the way, is the leader of 384 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:27,199 Speaker 1: this crew. And let's just dwell on Shackleton for a moment. 385 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,959 Speaker 1: There are all these quotes about Shackleton, and they all 386 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: say the same thing. The dude had a lot of 387 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 1: personal flaws. He was a drunk, a big time drunk. 388 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 1: He was a world class philanderer. Like we've discussed many times, 389 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: men don't ever strive to be like that. However, there 390 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: is that quote from Lord Acton, almost all great men 391 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 1: are bad men. It seems to be so often these 392 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: men who do these amazing things are not the best 393 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: human beings in the world. So we're not going to 394 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: dwell on that. Just No, he was a flawed man, 395 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: But every man who was ever with him said the 396 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: dude was just simply stupid calm under any single circumstance, 397 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: no matter what it was. Shackleton was just never rattled ever, 398 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: always kept the men's spirits up, always acted like, well, okay, 399 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: we'll be fine, we'll figure it out. It's no big deal. 400 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: The guy drops in the ocean in the middle of 401 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: the night, Shackleton Johnny on the Spot, wakes up, reaches in, 402 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: grabs him out of the water with one arm and 403 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: lifts this guy in his sleeping bag out of the 404 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: water and puts him back. Saves his life. Now, this 405 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: ice crack up problem gets worse than worse after their ship, 406 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: the Endurance, finally goes down. You see, it's not necessarily 407 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: the temperature. These guys are still in freezing temperatures and 408 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: living on a block of ice. But as soon as 409 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: the waters get warmer underneath them, that ice starts breaking 410 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: and they know we cannot stay here. We're going to die. 411 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: They did manage to take the three lifeboats off the 412 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: Endurance and keep the lifeboats with them, and they decide, well, 413 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: by the way, I'm not even close to done with 414 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 1: this story. You thought this was bad, trust me, it 415 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: gets worse. They said, well, we've got We've got to 416 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: go somewhere. They know there's an island called Elephant Island. 417 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 1: They're going to try to get to it. Elephant Island 418 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: is also a nightmare on Earth, without a single redeemable 419 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: quality to it at all, but it's land. And remember, 420 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: these guys have now been stuck for something like fourteen months. 421 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 1: Fourteen months, they need to try to get to Elephant 422 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: Island and then come up with some kind of a 423 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:10,959 Speaker 1: plan for survival. They do it. They get in these 424 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: boats and they get to Elephant Island. But the problem 425 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: is this, Yes, they're on land, they're still hunting seals. 426 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: They're eating seaweed there. That's what they're existing off of now. 427 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: But remember you only have so much of everything, and 428 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: the pickens are getting slim, and this is not an 429 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: island where there are shipping lanes by it. Nobody's coming 430 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 1: to save you. You're off the ice block. You're still 431 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: on a remote island with no big ship. You got 432 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: three lifeboats, and what are you going to do about it? 433 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: Shackleton decides, I've got to take the chance. I'm the 434 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: leader of this group. I'm going to take the chance. 435 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: He asks for volunteers. He gets five volunteers to come 436 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: with him. And the chance was simply this. They had 437 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: to travel eight hundred miles to get back to the 438 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: South Georgia Island where they had the whaling station. Eight 439 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: hundred miles. Oh wait, it gets worse. This eight hundred 440 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: miles is known as and I quote. This is a 441 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: direct quote, the most stormy stretch of ocean in the world. 442 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: You don't have a big ocean vessel. You have a lifeboat. 443 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: Shackleton has a carpenter with and remember these huge expeditions 444 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: would have specialists in almost anything. Obviously you had your 445 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: scientists and stuff, but you would always have a hunting specialist, 446 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: a navigation specialist, which is going to come into play 447 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 1: here in a moment. You're gonna have a carpenter, You're 448 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: gonna have a doctor, You're gonna have all these things. 449 00:31:55,480 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: He has the carpenter work on this lifeboat as hard 450 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 1: as he possibly can to try to fortify it as 451 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: best as possible from this eight hundred mile stretch of frozen, 452 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: stormy ocean. They're about to go on. They load up 453 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: some supplies, and off they go, and the trip somehow 454 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: gets worse from there. I will continue in a moment 455 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: before we get to bullying, hazing the CIA in China. 456 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 1: Hang on, missed out, Catch up Jesse Kelly Show dot com. 457 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: No word in English language is less convincing than probably. 458 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: Are you sure we should get matching tattoos on our 459 00:32:55,280 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: first date?

Six dudes. 481 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 1: They hop in a lifeboat from Elephant Island and they 482 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: take off towards South Georgia Island. Don't be confused. Their 483 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,839 Speaker 1: way down by South America right now. They have eight 484 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 1: hundred miles to go. They pack fifteen days of provisions, 485 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: and they take off through the most stormy stretch of 486 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 1: ocean in the world. And the trip is a nightmare 487 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: because it's freezing and they have a lifeboat, and this 488 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: is a difficult journey in a major boat. And what's 489 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: happening is the ice keeps building up on their boat, 490 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,760 Speaker 1: threatening to drag their boat into the water. So they're 491 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: constantly having to chisel the ice off the outside of 492 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 1: the boat. But wait, it actually gets even worse. They're 493 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 1: chiseling ice off the outside of the boat while freezing 494 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 1: cold ocean water is going over the sides into the boat, 495 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: which they not only have to bail out, they have 496 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: to try to stave off the frost bite that's happening 497 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 1: as they're getting soaked in the freezing water in the 498 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: middle of the ocean. And this is not a situation 499 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: where you can just fall overboard it'd be okay. If 500 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:05,800 Speaker 1: you fall out of this boat, you're going to die period. 501 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,919 Speaker 1: In case you're wondering. By the way, the men back 502 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,399 Speaker 1: on Elephant Island are not in a great shape either. 503 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: They take their last two lifeboats, turn them upside down. 504 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:21,920 Speaker 1: They essentially live underneath them. One guy who was a 505 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: stowaway on the ship, he was mad his buddy got 506 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: hired for the expedition and he didn't, so he was 507 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: a stowaway on the ship. He lost his toes frostbite 508 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: in the middle of the night. They had to turn 509 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: on the lanterns and chop his toes off. Yeah, how's that. 510 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 1: Enjoy your meal. Back to Shackleton. Six dudes going across 511 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 1: the water and they're one having to navigate, which is very, 512 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: very difficult because of the cloud cover. They brought their 513 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,720 Speaker 1: star navigator with them. He essentially saved their lives too. 514 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 1: It's not just the boat it's getting ice built up 515 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 1: on it. It's the sails. They have, you know, sails 516 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 1: to move through the water. They're having to bring down 517 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: the sails and saw the ice off of it to 518 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: put them back up. It just sounds like the worst 519 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 1: thing in the history of mankind. Finally they get to 520 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:24,760 Speaker 1: they can see South Georgia Island. Who We're saved, right, Nope, 521 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: a hurricane comes. A hurricane comes, and supposedly it sunk 522 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:37,839 Speaker 1: another major vessel. Somehow, the lifeboat they'rein manages to make 523 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 1: it through the hurricane, but they can't get to the 524 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: part of the island where the whaling station is. And 525 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:49,240 Speaker 1: South Georgia Island isn't a tiny little rock. There's only 526 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,720 Speaker 1: one little area they can put in. And now they're 527 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: out of food, so they have to put onto the island. 528 00:37:56,200 --> 00:38:00,360 Speaker 1: They made it fourteen days, eight hundred miles and in 529 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 1: South Georgia Island, two of the men are in such 530 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:08,319 Speaker 1: bad physical shape they cannot possibly go on. And so 531 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:14,760 Speaker 1: now you're twenty two miles away from the whaling station. 532 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: Two of your six men are down. You have to 533 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 1: leave a third man with them to care for them. 534 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:28,879 Speaker 1: So that leaves three of you twenty two miles away, frozen, starving, 535 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: away from the whaling station. And oh, remember what I 536 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 1: told you to do an image search of South Georgia 537 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 1: Island before. Don't do it if you're driving, if you're 538 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: in any position to do so, now's the time I 539 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: want you to do it. I'm telling you to do it. 540 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 1: Look at those ice mountains, frozen rivers. It's not twenty 541 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 1: two miles of the jogging path you and your granola 542 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:57,880 Speaker 1: friend walk down every single day, twenty two miles of 543 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: ice mountains. And you have to do this or your 544 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 1: entire crew is gonna die. Oh wait, there's more. You 545 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 1: don't have climbing shoes, you don't have climbing axes, climbing ropes, 546 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: you don't have any of this equipment. You have fifty 547 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: feet of rope for three men and a carpenter's axe. 548 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 1: You don't even have the shoes to do this. You 549 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 1: have to pick nails out of what you can and 550 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 1: stick them through the soles of your boots so you 551 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: can start humping through the mountains twenty two miles away. 552 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 1: I'll put it to you this way, this little expedition 553 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: that I'm about to wrap up here, they go on 554 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,800 Speaker 1: through South Georgia Island. You know how many other people 555 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: have done it, traversing just South Georgia Island. One group 556 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 1: of one group of people have done it, and they 557 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 1: were a specific group of mountain climber explorers, like fifty 558 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: years later who went down and did it. And when 559 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: they were done, they were asked about Shackleton's trip, and 560 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: they said, I have no idea how he did it. 561 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,239 Speaker 1: I have no idea how he did it. These men 562 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 1: are going up mountains, down mountains, and oh wait, it 563 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: actually somehow gets even worse. Hang on. One in three 564 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 1: adults has pre diabetes. One in three. That means it 565 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 1: could be you, your football buddy, your fruitball buddy, or 566 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: you your best man, your worst man. You you're a dogwalker, 567 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:53,319 Speaker 1: your cat jugger. While one in three adults has pre diabetes. 568 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 1: With early diagnosis, pre diabetes can be reversed. Take the 569 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,399 Speaker 1: risk test at do I have pre diabetes dot org? 570 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 1: That's I have pre diabetes dot org. Wait did they 571 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,919 Speaker 1: just say one in three adults has pre diabetes. That's 572 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 1: thirty three point three three three percent of adults. That 573 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: means it could be me my boss or my boss's boss, 574 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 1: or me my favorite sister or my other sister. That's 575 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 1: seven members of my twenty one person romantic book club. Wait, 576 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: the one in three could be me my karaoke partner Carol, 577 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,440 Speaker 1: or my karaoke enemy, Jeff. I'm going to take the 578 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: risk test that do I have pre diabetes dot Org 579 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:31,480 Speaker 1: brought to you by the AD Council and it's pre 580 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:50,439 Speaker 1: Diabetes Awareness Partners. Jewish producer Chris just told me he's 581 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,720 Speaker 1: never heard heard me shout through an entire history segment 582 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: before did this story. It's so absurd the more you 583 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 1: dig into it, and I highly recommend you read a book. 584 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,719 Speaker 1: There's a book called Endurance on it. Shackleton himself, I 585 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 1: believe wrote a book called South but I may have 586 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: that wrong. But look, I'm giving you the water down 587 00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 1: version of this. It is just it's amazing to me 588 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 1: what these men will do. Remember at Jesse Kelly DC 589 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 1: on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

Hang on the Jesse Kelly Show. This is 603 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 1: the Jesse Kelly Show. Either way, I don't give a 604 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 1: what you think you are entitled to. Did you order 605 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 1: the code read? I did the job. Did you order 606 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 1: the code Ruter? God right, I did. Nearly ninety percent 607 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 1: of milli terry hazing complaints come from the Marine Corps. 608 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 1: We are about to talk about that in a very 609 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 1: uncomfortable fashion here in just a moment. But first, allow 610 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 1: us to finish the greatest tale of endurance I've ever 611 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:22,080 Speaker 1: seen in my life. Shackleton. Two buddies. They're trying to 612 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 1: get twenty two miles across South Georgia Island to the 613 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:29,439 Speaker 1: whaling station, not just for themselves, for all the men 614 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 1: they left back on Elephant Island who are starving, going 615 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 1: to be dying. And there's something in the human mind 616 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:47,719 Speaker 1: that can make you carry on or kill you. I 617 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 1: let me step just aside for a brief moment here 618 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 1: in the during my time in the Marine Corps, and 619 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:58,920 Speaker 1: believe me, that was a lot of pounds ago and 620 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 1: a lot of years ago, but during my time in 621 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 1: the marine crawl. Never forget the feeling of physical devastation 622 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 1: when you're and they do this on purpose. They do 623 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,319 Speaker 1: this on purpose. When you go out for let's say 624 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 1: they're taking you out for a run, or you're putting 625 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,799 Speaker 1: on your pack, you're going for a long hump. They 626 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 1: don't tell you how far you're going lots of the time, 627 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 1: and on the runs, they practically never do. And they 628 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,360 Speaker 1: don't tell you the route you're going, and that that 629 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 1: part always drove me nuts. Just tell me, tell me 630 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,239 Speaker 1: what I could expect. I want to know. Look, are 631 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 1: we going ten miles today? Are we going two miles today? 632 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 1: It could be any They never ever tell you, and 633 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 1: it drove me nuts. And they do it on purpose. 634 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 1: And this is why, because when you are doing something 635 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 1: physically grueling, mentally grueling, you're you're humping up a mountain 636 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:53,400 Speaker 1: with a bunch of gear and you get to the top, 637 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 1: you're telling yourself the entire time. And I have so 638 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,080 Speaker 1: many people right now looking at the radio noddings. They 639 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. You're telling yourself the entire time. 640 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 1: One more step one more step, Just get to the top, 641 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 1: one more step. I can do it. If I just 642 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,280 Speaker 1: get to the top, and you've made it. Just get 643 00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 1: to the top, and you've made it, and you get 644 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 1: to the top and either there's another mountain in front 645 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 1: of you, or they would do this a lot to us. 646 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 1: They would take us back towards base, so you're like, oh, 647 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 1: we're going We're about done, and then they would hook 648 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,919 Speaker 1: another left or or right back into the hills, and 649 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 1: that's when you would see lots of guys falter or 650 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 1: fall out. Why was it physical, No, it was mental. 651 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:40,720 Speaker 1: It was just that your mind breaks. There's something about 652 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 1: feeling like you're almost there and then having it snatched 653 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 1: away from you that breaks you mentally. These guys are 654 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 1: traversing an island. They didn't have maps for across ice mountains, 655 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 1: and sometimes they would get to the top of an 656 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 1: ice mountain think what they're going through right now, and 657 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 1: they would find out this was the wrong direction. We 658 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 1: have to go back down and cross this ice mountain instead. 659 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,719 Speaker 1: And they didn't even have they didn't even have equipment 660 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,640 Speaker 1: to go down the mountains. They would sled like toboggin 661 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:24,879 Speaker 1: down the hills. One time they came across a waterfall 662 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 1: practically frozen, they had to disrobe and risk hypothermia. The 663 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 1: only way down it was to rope down the waterfall. 664 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,960 Speaker 1: They made it. Though they made it. It's a it's 665 00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 1: a famous story. The day they get to the whaling station. 666 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: They get there and they first encounter a child, and 667 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:52,920 Speaker 1: the child sees them, and obviously these guys are related 668 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 1: and they know they're close. They see the child and 669 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 1: they see the whaling station. The child sees them and turns, 670 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 1: sprinting away in terror. These guys have beards frozen iced over. 671 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:12,080 Speaker 1: Their clothes now basically entirely consist of animal skins. Only 672 00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:14,879 Speaker 1: the salt, water and the weather and everything else had 673 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:18,720 Speaker 1: worn through the animals skins, tattered animal skins. They looked 674 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 1: like they looked like monsters. That's what they looked like. 675 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,840 Speaker 1: But they had made it, and somehow they still weren't 676 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 1: out of the woods yet. The whaling people were awesome 677 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: immediately because they knew them, told them who they were, 678 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 1: remember us from a year ago. They took them in, 679 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:40,879 Speaker 1: you know, feed, water, sleep, everything else. But now you 680 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:45,240 Speaker 1: still have to remember cross back through the stormiest stretch 681 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:47,879 Speaker 1: of ocean, in the world to get your men who 682 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 1: are back there and they need help. It takes them 683 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:54,319 Speaker 1: four tries, four tries to keep having to turn back 684 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 1: because of the ice and the weather. But finally on 685 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,800 Speaker 1: the fourth attempt, the men on the island were sitting 686 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 1: there eating that they were gnawing on seal bones in seaweed, 687 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:12,040 Speaker 1: and they finally see Shackleton, who insisted on coming along. 688 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,320 Speaker 1: He didn't sit back and say, go get my guys. 689 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:18,799 Speaker 1: Shackleton says, oh, I'm coming to get my man. And 690 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 1: Ernest Shackleton twenty eight man crew, every single one of 691 00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:29,799 Speaker 1: them lived through this. To this day. It is known 692 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 1: as one of the great endurance, great leadership tales in 693 00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 1: the history of mankind. In fact, I have decided I 694 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:41,800 Speaker 1: decided it last night. When my boys get a little 695 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 1: bit older to be too much for him. Right now 696 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 1: they're ten and twelve. Maybe your kids are ready, though 697 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: kids mature differently. I'm going to make my sons read 698 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 1: this book that is beyond impressive. And I want you 699 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,359 Speaker 1: to stand something before we go on to all our 700 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: stories and hazing and everything else. We talk a lot 701 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 1: on this show, and we always will about the nature 702 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 1: of man and the terrible, terrible things man is capable of, 703 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,399 Speaker 1: and he is. You know I I've told you I'm 704 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 1: going to I did it, I believe a year ago, 705 00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:26,160 Speaker 1: maybe maybe less than that, a year ago on the 706 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,440 Speaker 1: story of the Nazi Reserve Battalion, the Reserve Police Battalion 707 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 1: one oh one, a story of what they did in Poland. 708 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,839 Speaker 1: There's a book about it called Ordinary Men everybody should read. 709 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 1: And I've decided I'm going to try to do that 710 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 1: story at least once a year. I'm gonna repeat it 711 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,759 Speaker 1: because I think it's so important to understand about the 712 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,919 Speaker 1: evil nature of men and how they're just men. They're 713 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 1: not demons. We're all capable of that. But I think 714 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,320 Speaker 1: it's important for us from time to time to remember 715 00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:58,720 Speaker 1: Shackleton was just a man. This twenty eight person crew, 716 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:04,719 Speaker 1: twenty eight man crew, they weren't all superheroes. They were 717 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 1: just men too. We politically maybe going through some down 718 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 1: moments right now, and it's okay to have a moment 719 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,799 Speaker 1: toward two. Be down. It's fine. I'm not telling you 720 00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:21,840 Speaker 1: about everything's fine. We who've never had so much fun, buddy, 721 00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:26,800 Speaker 1: people who have gone through a lot worse. Keep going, 722 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:34,120 Speaker 1: keep going. You're just as capable as Ernest Shackleton and 723 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 1: his twenty eight the twenty eight men of this endurance 724 00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 1: through You're just as capable as they are of keeping 725 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:47,400 Speaker 1: going whatever you're going through, whatever it may be. Maybe 726 00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 1: your marriage is a disaster, kids, Maybe you're sick. We 727 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 1: get emails a lot of people, you know, people are sick, cancers, 728 00:51:56,640 --> 00:52:03,080 Speaker 1: this life, life, life's hard, man, Life's hard. Full disclosure. 729 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:06,719 Speaker 1: I'm about to lose my grandpa a thing. Hope not, 730 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,839 Speaker 1: but I think I'm about to lose my grandpa. Life's heart, 731 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:14,359 Speaker 1: life ends. Keep going, Keep going until they put you 732 00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:21,799 Speaker 1: in the ground. Remember that these guys, these legends, just men, 733 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 1: just men, flesh and blood. It's like you and I. 734 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 1: We're all capable of more. Now. Hazing The headline is 735 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 1: nearly ninety percent of military hazing complaints come from the 736 00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 1: Marine Corps. Data shows, a year after a Marine drill 737 00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:44,920 Speaker 1: instructor was sentenced to ten years behind bars for hazing 738 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:49,040 Speaker 1: Muslim recruits, throwing one in an industrial friar and figuring 739 00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 1: in another's death, data shows nearly nine out of ten 740 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,160 Speaker 1: hazing reports in the military still came from the core. 741 00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 1: Do you want to have a real talk let's have 742 00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:06,319 Speaker 1: a real talk about hazing and life.
