You can turn back now or 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: learn the stuff they don't want you to now. Hello, 4 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: welcome back to the show. My name is Matt, my 5 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 1: name is Norman, and today my name happens to be Been. 6 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: But most importantly you're here, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you 7 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 1: for coming. Welcome to stuff they don't want you to know. 8 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: And boy, do we have a story for you today, Yes, 9 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 1: a story that spans the centuries, the seas or the 10 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: or the Ocean's full disclosure, everybody. We talked about this 11 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: off air for a secuit and uh oh, it was 12 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 1: on air. It was on air. It was it was 13 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: but we cut it right. Okay, great. Uh So, there 14 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: is a there is a small difference between ocean and 15 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: a sea. We found out who besides everybody but me, 16 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: besides I didn't know. It's very kind of you, Ben, 17 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: I'd ship. I really had no idea that the sea 18 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: is part of the ocean partially enclosed by land. Is 19 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: that like an it's like a ninthula? Yeah. Uh so 20 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,199 Speaker 1: we wanted to put a little bit of geography into 21 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: the show today because our topic concerns geography, as you 22 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: will find out. And I don't know why I try 23 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: to tease this sometimes as though people are blindfolded and 24 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: just randomly smacking the keyboard and not reading the title. 25 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: I think that's a fun idea. Listening to podcasts with 26 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: absolutely no context of what it is. You just hit 27 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,199 Speaker 1: play and you just go for it. It's like someone 28 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: making you a mixtape. Yeah, yeah, that's pretty cool. But 29 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 1: before we go into it, I would like to ask 30 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: you ask for mixtapes. No, I'm kidding, don't really do it. Yeah, 31 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: if you guys want to send us mix tapes one 32 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,279 Speaker 1: real quick. Yeah, my girlfriend and I recently exchanged presence 33 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: because she's going to London for the Christmas holidays. So 34 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: that's right. We'll double back around to that once we 35 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: get into the topic. But she got me a mixtape 36 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,239 Speaker 1: on a thumb drive that came in this awesome little 37 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: cassette shaped box and the thumb drive fits inside and 38 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: it has a little flap that comes up just like 39 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: on a cassette, where she hand wrote all the names 40 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: of the songs on it, and it's like a whole thing. 41 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: So anybody out there looking for a clever late Christmas gift. 42 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: Go on Amazon and look for mixtape USB stick and 43 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: you know, and I thought it was really creative. That's 44 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: too involved. She must really like you. That's fantastic. And 45 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: I was impressed. I'm a little and it's and the 46 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: mixtape happens to be fire, so oh yeah, it's all fire. 47 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: Is as good as CBS Bangers Volume three. No, well no, 48 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: I didn't know. Yes, that's different. It's on. That's a 49 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: horse of a different color. Yeah. Well, congratulations, I'd love 50 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: to Can we hear it sometime or is it like 51 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: a personal thing. I'll have to decide later. Okay, that 52 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: you know what. That's fair enough. That's fair. So today 53 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: we're going to do something a little bit different. We 54 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: have a short segment for you. Let's just call it 55 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: in the News, since we think of a more clever name. 56 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: And here is the intro for that segment. Okay, So 57 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: our question or a suggestion in the news recently came 58 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: from Twitter via a listener named super Chip, who asked 59 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: us if we were going to talk about these mysterious 60 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: ghost ship washing up on shore in Japan. And guys, 61 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: I've heard about this right Because of that, our Twitter 62 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: friend yeah, because of some people on Twitter. Well what 63 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: it What turns out what happened is that for the 64 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: past two months, at least a dozen boats carrying the 65 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: remains of a little less than thirty people have been 66 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: found drifting off the coast of Japan. No idea who 67 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: these people were. For a long time, the news had 68 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: no idea why they were coming. But from what we 69 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: know so far, it appears that these um these are 70 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: fishing vessels, and it appears that they're coming from North Korea. 71 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: So and they think that because weren't some of the 72 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: I guess the clothes on the bodies seem to be 73 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: from Korea featuring featuring the lapel badge of Kim Jong Il, 74 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: which most people outside of North Korea do or the 75 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: DPRK do not wear, so it appears that they're going 76 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: that way. One of the big questions was whether these 77 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: whether these people were attempting to defect from the country. 78 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: But the problem is that the path they take doesn't 79 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: really makes sense because if you were going to defect, 80 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 1: According to John Nilson Wright, who is ahead of the 81 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: Asia program at Chatham House, if you were going to defect, 82 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: you would head south to South Korea, rather than going 83 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: across to Japan. So the other theory right now is 84 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: that these ships were ill faded, ill fated fishermen who 85 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: were sent out to try to bolster dwindling food supplies. Yeah, 86 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: maybe go out a little further than they normally would 87 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: or something seems like, if you're going to defect two, 88 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 1: you might ditch your kim John il Pens. Well that's 89 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: true for me. It's kind of a cover right if 90 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: you're like, oh no, no, we're still all good everything. Yeah, 91 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 1: I don't know. That sounds a good point. So it's 92 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,799 Speaker 1: strange because there have been a lot of wrecked boats 93 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: drifting towards Japan every year. There were more than sixty 94 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: last year, and most of them were empty. The mystery continues. 95 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: Right now, there's pretty there's pretty good evidence, or that's 96 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 1: pretty solid speculation that there would be a bunch of 97 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: ill fated fishermen. But of course there might be something 98 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: more to the story. So stay tuned and if you 99 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: have a lead on it, and let us know. So 100 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: what are we actually talking about today, man, I'm glad 101 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: you asked no. Yeah, thank you for putting up with 102 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 1: my short attention span. Theater, We are talking about a 103 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: very strange thing that we looked into most of this week, 104 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: which is the conspiracy theory that the United Kingdom owns 105 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 1: the United States or controls it. This is something you 106 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: may have already heard about if you are existing in 107 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: this conspiracy sphere on the Internet the way that we do. 108 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: It's it's an old theory. It's pretty strange. We really 109 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: got to delve into it because we did a video 110 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,840 Speaker 1: this week with All Time Conspiracies and they were discussing 111 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: how dangerous the United Kingdom is, and we decided we 112 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: were going to look into this question. But they're so polite, 113 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: so so polite. I just kill you with kindness. And 114 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 1: if you check out the comments from people who live 115 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: in the UK on that video, it's it's hilarious. They're 116 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: they're a bunch of people say, oh, the jig is 117 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: up by Joe, hide their bodies. So before we talk 118 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: about the the this theory, we've got to talk a 119 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,119 Speaker 1: little bit about the history about one of the most 120 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: important breakups in the Western Hemisphere. So everyone, if you 121 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: would cast your memories back to the seventeen seventies when 122 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: Britain still owned the thirteen colonies that were carved out 123 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: of Native American land. These were Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia. That's 124 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: a good one. It's a good one. Yeah, I'm fine 125 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: with them, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, 126 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Virginia, whereas 127 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: I like to call it Old Virginia. Um. The relationship 128 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: between the colonies and the crown was let's say, tense, 129 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: to say the least. So during the previous decade Britain 130 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: passed numerous acts meant to suppress and control their colonial underlings. 131 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 1: I suppose they wouldn't see them. It was very close 132 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: to what you could call economic warfare, essentially if they 133 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: waited on their subjects. Yeah right, mercantile is um. We 134 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: all remember this, maybe from history or social studies, that 135 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: being a system where in raw materials its resource extraction, right, 136 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: timber lumber for whatever else people are into at that time, 137 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: shipped off to uh the owner of the colony. Because 138 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: this was a brand new land full of wondrous things 139 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: that it was just bountiful. Let's take all of it 140 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: and return. They function as a captive market to buy 141 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: manufactured goods from this homeland. So in other words, they're 142 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: breaking their backs extracting these raw materials, shipping them back 143 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: to Britain, who are then using these raw materials to 144 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: make goods that they are then selling back to the colonists. Yeah, 145 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: it sounds familiar. Doesn't sound like a particularly sweet deal 146 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: if you ask me. I mean, it depends on who 147 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: you are in that deal. That's fair, because it's good 148 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: to be king baby, you know. But so that's that's 149 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: a great background. Or here are a couple of examples 150 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: of what happened during those decades leading up seventeen sixty one, 151 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: the British officials decided to stop smuggling because you know, 152 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: they're they're getting Ah, that's right, we're still a family 153 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: show a boatload of revenue off of each boatload, each boatload. 154 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: Yes exactly, that's that's you got me man. Uh So 155 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: what they wanted to do is invague people's privacy by 156 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: using general search warrants when they could just go into 157 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: a house anyone suspective smuggling. And the columnists said, hey, 158 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 1: now hey, now we're English citizens and you shouldn't be 159 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: able to do that. And England was like l Mayo GTFO, 160 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: And that's what kind of smuggling were talking about, Like 161 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: were they stealing materials where they smuggling things like two 162 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 1: other family members. Like I'm just wondering, right, this would 163 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: be uh, this be smuggling in the sense of not 164 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: necessarily an illegal good. But because you know, now, when 165 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 1: we think of smuggling, we think of several things. We 166 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: think of drugs, weapons, and human beings. Right, those are 167 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,719 Speaker 1: general trafficking is the word trafficking? Yeah, but back then 168 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: it would be something when it would be a situation 169 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: where you're more than likely just trying to avoid paying 170 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: in excise tax. See, so if you're stealing from the crown. Yeah, 171 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: it could be cotton, you know what I mean, there's cotton. 172 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: There's a cotton tycoon somewhere. I don't know that's a 173 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: bad example, but alright, so other things. In seventeen sixty three, 174 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: the British decided that no colonists could advance west past 175 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 1: a certain past a certain area here's an imaginary line. 176 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 1: And you know, I think that's fortunate for the people 177 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: who lived still lived in the western area and once 178 00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: lived in the area that the colonists discovered. Whatever. However, 179 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: this was considered a betrayal by a lot of people 180 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: who had come to the colonies to explore westward. And 181 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: then they said, you can't use colonial currency to pay 182 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,719 Speaker 1: back your debts. It's got to be sterling money. And 183 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: the of course you quarterine Acts, Stamp Act. Uh. Then 184 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: this leads up to the Boston massacre in seventeen seventy, 185 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: where some snowball throwing went wrong. Five civilians ended up 186 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: dying from shots fired into the crowd. Then the Boston 187 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 1: Tea Party, then what's called the Intolerable Acts, where parliament 188 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: the UK or the British Parliament ordered the port of 189 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: Boston closed until the tea was paid for, and passed 190 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: other measures that were supposed to punish the people of 191 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: Massachusetts by depriving them of what rights they had remaining. 192 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 1: And we all see where this is going, right, Yeah, 193 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: to the Revolutionary War, to the thing that we're taught 194 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: in His tree, as you know, the birth of our nation. 195 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: This is this is how we became the United States 196 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: of America by fighting back against our oppressors. And on 197 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: April nineteenth, seventeen seventy, the war began at Lexington and Concord, 198 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,719 Speaker 1: and it lasted for eight years, ended on September three 199 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: of sevree Um, and as the war stretched on, support 200 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: for the conflict diminished. In Britain. Popular opinions sort of 201 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,839 Speaker 1: shifted to kind of support the colonists. More and more 202 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: people believe the war cost more than the colonies were 203 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: actually worth. So maybe they weren't exactly siding with the colonists, 204 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,319 Speaker 1: but they realized that this was something that was ultimately 205 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 1: sort of a losing battle. Well, yeah, this is a 206 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: thing that happens throughout history where there's a conflict in 207 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: lands that are not your own, and the populace start saying, 208 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: why are we spending all of this money to go 209 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 1: and fight over there? At some point there was a 210 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 1: there's a breaking point in the opinion of the populace 211 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: up and and the question is what what benefit is 212 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 1: this to us? Because the colonies had a much smaller 213 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: military force, but they also had a much shorter trip 214 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: to the fight. So as you as you said, no, uh, 215 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 1: this ends the war right seventeen eighty three, and it 216 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 1: officially ends. The reason we have the official day and 217 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,080 Speaker 1: day and date is because it was ended by the 218 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: Treaty of Paris that said Okay, the beef is squashed. 219 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 1: Here are our conditions, our new relationship or whatever it 220 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: will be. And it had some interesting stuff, you know. 221 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: It said that there were private debts that had to 222 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: be returned, the property of British citizens had to be 223 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: returned to them. Uh, the colonies were granted sovereignty, which 224 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: is the big one, and even some fishing rights. So 225 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: with the Treaty of Paris in seventeen eighty three, the 226 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: US became its own sovereign, independent country, or did it. 227 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: Here's where it gets crazy. There are a lot of 228 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: people that you will run into, perhaps late night at 229 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: a bar. Maybe they've had a few tube, too many 230 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: to drink, too many loggers, Perhaps maybe they're just maybe 231 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: it's Nolan, I, maybe it's me. Who knows, but you 232 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: might run into them who will tell you that the 233 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: United States is not its own sovereign nation. No, no, no, 234 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: In fact, it is controlled still by its ancient mother, 235 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: Great Britain. Yeah. Yeah, that's uh that. It sounds like 236 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: a lot to take in or consider, But this is 237 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: similar to other theories there. There are a lot of 238 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: theories of what I would call foreign control. Right, the 239 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: idea that there's another state, be at Saudi Arabia or 240 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: Israel control in the US, the idea that it might 241 00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: be a bank, the idea that it might be a 242 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: bigger instance tuition like the United Nations or something. But 243 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: one of the most elaborate arguments for this theory came 244 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: from a website called the Forbidden Knowledge. So, according to 245 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: this site, the Treaty of Paris was actually a way 246 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: for the king to rid himself of obligations and liabilities 247 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: to the colonists while retaining you know, financial advantage because 248 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: the colonists still had to repay certain debts that they had. Uh, 249 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: there's a concept of the US is not so much 250 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: a nation as it is a corporation. And even in 251 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: the age of increasing corporate power, there's still a huge 252 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: difference between a private corporation and a state. Right. This 253 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: is also something might hear from a writer called Alex 254 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: Christopher and author of a book called Pandora's Box, and 255 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: this this is one of the big proponents of it, 256 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: and he argues that we're still subject to the British Commonwealth. Right. 257 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: This cons that is um is pretty similar in a 258 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: couple of different places to the author of Forbidden Knowledge 259 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:11,119 Speaker 1: or on that website. They say that the difference between 260 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: a corporation or corporate charter in a country remains in 261 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: the state level constitutions. And uh, we've got a quote here. 262 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: Who wants to do the honors? I got you? I 263 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: have always used a copy of the North Carolina Constitution 264 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: provided by the state. I should have known better to 265 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: take this as the final authority. To my knowledge, the 266 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: following quote has not been in the constitution the state 267 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: hands out or in those in use in schools. The 268 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: seventeen seventies six North Carolina Constitution created a new corporate 269 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: charter and declared our individual freedoms. However, the same corporate 270 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: charter reserved the King's title to the land, which restored 271 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 1: and did not diminish his grants that were made in 272 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: his early charters. If you remember, I made the claim 273 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: that legally we are still subject to the King. In 274 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 1: the below quote, you will see that the King declares 275 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: our taxation will be forever, and that a fourth of 276 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 1: all gold and silver will be returned to him, yielding 277 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 1: and pain yearly to us ours and successors for the 278 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: same the yearly rent of twenty marks of lawful money 279 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: of England at the Feast of all Saints, yearly forever, 280 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: the first payment thereof to begin and be made on 281 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: the Feast of all Saints, which shall be in the 282 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: year of our Lord one thousand, six hundred sixty and five. 283 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: And also the fourth part of all gold and silver, 284 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: or which, with the limits aforesaid, shall from time to 285 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: time happened to be found. And if I may, in 286 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: the battle of the accents, I concede to you so 287 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: and you win. We had I didn't mean to start 288 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: off with one, by the way, I was trying to 289 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,120 Speaker 1: just I slipped in a listen. It's fun to read 290 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 1: things in access. I thought that word, um, I think 291 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 1: the word pretty well. We're passing the quotation around, you know. 292 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: I feel like the strength of the accents went up 293 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: into the right. I just felt I feel like graph No, 294 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: I think it was all. I think it started at 295 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: the top and right and stayed so there are this 296 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: is interesting right when you listen to that. It might 297 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 1: take a few listens to really have all that sink 298 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: in of what this gentleman is saying. Um. But there 299 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: are some other ideas regarding this subject of who controls 300 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: the United States and possibly why. One of them is 301 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: that the US is not necessarily controlled by let's say, 302 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: the crown, by the royal family, the Queen and all 303 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: of her youngsters, but instead by this place that we've 304 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: been researching this week that is awfully strange, the City 305 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: of London. Now, this is the reason that why this 306 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: is weird is because it's an incorporated city smack dab 307 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: in the middle of Greater London, and it's it's very tiny. 308 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: I think there are what eleven thousand people who actually 309 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: reside in the city itself, some some very small number 310 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 1: compared to the number of people who actually live in 311 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 1: Greater London. I mean there's a lot of sprawl in 312 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: that area in general. So yeah, but it's a it's 313 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: very very tiny, and I think three I think the 314 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: quote that I had read was three thousand people come 315 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 1: into quote the City of London to work. Yeah. Yeah, 316 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: and they have a trade association and guild or the 317 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: control of the City of London. The livery companies, Yeah, 318 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: the liverary companies. Medieval guilds that turned into corporations and 319 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 1: we'll still call themselves something like the Worshipful Company of 320 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 1: Grocers or drapers or fishmongers and there's no monging of fish. 321 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: You know. I have to say, just as a side note, 322 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: I'm kind of I'm kind of jealous of those groups. 323 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: I kind of want to be in a worship worshipful 324 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: organization of video producers. Yes, that'd be great, you guys 325 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 1: the monger, Yes please. I'm I'm also envious. So that 326 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: the city of London is a place that I think 327 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: deserves its own episode. But it is one of the 328 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,919 Speaker 1: financial hubs of the world, right It's it's closely connected 329 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: with various central banks. They are all kinds of interesting 330 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: proven things about it, and then many many more alleged things. 331 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: So that's one of our suspects for running the US, 332 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: that there would be financial control based in the City 333 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: of London, and that that is the true power behind 334 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: the throne of Uncle Sam. And that's you know, that's 335 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: a not necessarily impossible to be honest, It might be 336 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,239 Speaker 1: a bit implausible. No, I don't know. It feels like 337 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 1: it it It would be difficult to prove that to me, 338 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: to get me to really say, okay, yes, that's true. 339 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: The city, the City of London controls all of the US. 340 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, nine foreign companies are listed in 341 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:16,679 Speaker 1: London and they represent about of the global foreign equity listing, 342 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 1: so one fifth of the financial power of the world. 343 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: I mean that's pretty darn big, right there is that. 344 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: You know, when we do the episode on City of London, 345 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna see some weird stuff here. But 346 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: it's also guys, it's not unheard of for a bank, two, 347 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 1: or even a corporation to interfere with the working of 348 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: a country or a state, you know, especially if if 349 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 1: they're weaker. We've talked about that before on here. I 350 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: think the Banana Republic episode is one of my favorite 351 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: examples of that. They have great pants, yes, yes, they Yeah, 352 00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 1: aside from the fantastic trousers. What we're referring to would 353 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: be a war waged by essentially a corporation with the 354 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: cooperation of the US, right and what was the name 355 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: of that again, Matt, the United Fruit Company. They were 356 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: they were tenacious in in their attempts to maintain control 357 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: over their business. Uh In. I think South America, Central 358 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: America like that. Yeah, So typically this this does happen, 359 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: like you said, with the weaker states, places that have 360 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: a lot of resources but not necessarily a lot of GDP, 361 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So the the sheer size 362 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 1: and scope of the U. S economy makes it pretty 363 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: tough for all but just a very few upper echelon 364 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 1: companies to push the government around. So you know, sure 365 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: we can confirm that corporations corrupt individual lawmakers, but they 366 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: don't necessarily have as much influence as they would in 367 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: a weaker country. Sure that makes sense. So you know, 368 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: we hear about, we hear about the influence that corporations 369 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: can have lobbying, but that is that is um a 370 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: pale shadow of what we would be talking about, which 371 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: is somebody going in to the seat of power and 372 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 1: saying jump or you know, we want South Dakota, no questions. 373 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 1: I imagine someone entering the Oval office, perhaps turning off 374 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: the lights, just you know, taking on their own to 375 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 1: do that, maybe going over and shutting some of the 376 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 1: blinds and just having a stern talk with the president 377 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 1: after disconnecting the phone line. Of course, So there's another 378 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: there's another idea here. We talked we're talking about big companies, 379 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 1: but what about individual banks or individual bankers or families 380 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: of bankers. Yep, you're going there, are It gets a 381 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 1: little trickier. You know exactly where this is going. Gentlemen, 382 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 1: Are you gonna say our favorite family in the whole 383 00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: wide world the Rothschilds Or no, No, you're going to 384 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: talk about the Goldman Sax or the Asters or the Morgan's. 385 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: Maybe could it be Satan Uh? Maybe I was thinking 386 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 1: more of the Rockefellers, but you might be on the 387 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: right track. Nailed it on the first trial. The Rothchild 388 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 1: the people that come up so often that we might 389 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: as well just invite them on this show and and 390 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: get a sound cue or something. Yes, I doubt they 391 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: would come, so, yeah, you have to be a like 392 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: a done done dune. I would love that, but we 393 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: would have to clear that sound cue with them in 394 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: in advance so that they don't feel betrayed. Yeah, they 395 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 1: would just buy how stuff works. Oh that's true, they 396 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: probably would. So we have um no idea how much 397 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: money this family collectively owns. When I say we, I 398 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: mean the media, I mean pretty much everybody outside of 399 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: that family or out side of its um close uh 400 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 1: close group of financial advisors. Yeah, because we're talking about 401 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: historical money, money that was worth millions when they originally 402 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: got it and now is worth hundreds and hundreds of billions, 403 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,719 Speaker 1: and you know it's put away for children for descendants, 404 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: and then it kind of just sticks around and gets 405 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: bigger and bigger and bigger. I mean, dude, there's there 406 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: even conspiracy theories alleging that the Rothchild's control the UK. 407 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 1: Who you know, we're talking about the conspiracy theory alleging 408 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 1: at the UK control of the US. So if the 409 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: Rothchilds control the UK and they're at the top of 410 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: a pretty sick pyramid here, yeah, right. And then there's 411 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: that quote that's often attributed to Mayor Rothschild himself, the 412 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 1: founder of the dynasty. Give me control of a nation's 413 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: money supply and I cannot who makes its laws? Now. 414 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 1: Interestingly enough, I did a deep dive on this quote 415 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: while I was making the video. Uh, it's I said, attributed. Yes, No, 416 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 1: you're absolutely correct, it's It is mostly attributed to Mayor Rothschild. However, 417 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: the only documented source of it that I could find 418 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: came from a subcommittee within the House of Representatives in 419 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: the United States, and it was a gentleman speaking about 420 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: the Rothschilds. And I'm going to read you this quote 421 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 1: that I could find because it it makes more sense 422 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: with someone talking about the Rothschilds than a rothschild sitting 423 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: there and and you know, making the evil face and 424 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: saying well, toiling is villainous mustache. And this from the 425 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: scipt article, right, This is not from the skipt ark. 426 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 1: I went directly to the actual book or the the 427 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 1: congressional record. You have the rural the rural credits. So 428 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: this comes from Daniel T. Cushing, who was a financial 429 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: writer in Washington, d c. From February sixteenth, nineteen fourteen. Quote, 430 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: let us control the money of a country, and we 431 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: cannot who makes its awesome? This is the maxim of 432 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: the House of Rothschilds and is the foundation principle of 433 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: European banks. It makes no difference whether you call it 434 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: a republic or a monarchy. The people can never be 435 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: free as the borrower is the servant of the Lenda 436 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: masterpiece theater man. We digress. What what does this make 437 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: you think of, Matt Well? It makes me think of 438 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: the Federal Reserve. That's a topic that we've touched on 439 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,360 Speaker 1: before in this podcast and on our videos, and it's 440 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,719 Speaker 1: one of those it feels murky to someone who doesn't 441 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: know a whole lot about the history of the Federal Reserve. 442 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: And I don't know, do you guys ever stay awake 443 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: at night and think, Wow, how does this money happen? Why? 444 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: Why is there more and more money happening? You know, 445 00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: there's Federal Reserve news today, right. No, they they're gonna 446 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 1: up the interest rate for the first time since the 447 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: financial collapse, like the the rates have been at zero, 448 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: I think pretty much directly as a result of that, 449 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: to try to help rebuild in some ways. Like correct, 450 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: they said the that the U. S economy could handle 451 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 1: arise in rates. Oh man, the Federals are such a 452 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: confusing thing, it is, And I actually, you know this 453 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: is it has sort of a kind of is monarchical 454 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: a word I don't know. Okay, So you know you've 455 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 1: got like the chairman of the Fed, and for the 456 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: longest time leading up to the financial collapse, it was 457 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: this guy, Alan Greenspan, right. And I saw this great 458 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: clip the other day of it was from I think 459 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: it was like two thousand or something like that, and 460 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: it was Bernie Sanders berating Alan Greenspan during some sort 461 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: of hearing, basically saying that like you need to, you know, 462 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 1: meet come with me to Vermont and like meet some 463 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: regular people, because you, sir, are completely out of touch, 464 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: and you say things and have these ideas that you know, 465 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter where products are manufactured as long as 466 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: you know our g d P is up, and even 467 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: though people are losing their jobs because these jobs are 468 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: being shipped overseas, etcetera. And Greenspan totally defends himself and says, 469 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: you know that we have the highest standard of living 470 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: of any developed nation of our size, this, that and 471 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 1: the other, and then some years go by, collapse happens. 472 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: Dude has to back down in front of a congressional 473 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: Here he basically says that his logic was flawed. And 474 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: I don't need to divert too much from that, but 475 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: I guess what I'm what My point is that your 476 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: point is that he got burned, he got be felt burned. 477 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: My point is it just the system. It's it seems 478 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: very um it's it's the fact that one person can 479 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 1: steer this system, you know, is very suspect and very 480 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: strange to me. Right, Yeah, And here's something from the 481 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 1: skeptical article it alluded to earlier that I that I 482 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: think can shed someone in this so up to weight 483 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: of course, is a debunking and skeptic based website right 484 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: and podcast, which is great, right Yeah. It's not a 485 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: what if or is it possible? It's a it starts 486 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: from this is bs. Yeah. It shoots a lot of 487 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: things down. I would say that in gathering, if you're 488 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: doing your own research in this and listening to this podcast, 489 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: I would say it's a good place to go and 490 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 1: get one side. Yeah yeah, yeah, like as as said 491 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 1: this for and try to practice it myself. But it 492 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: is so important to read the stuff that you disagree 493 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: with as well as the stuff with which you agree, 494 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: especially considering that you're probably doing research online and you're 495 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: probably using Google, and Google, unless you're very careful, is 496 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: going to figure out what you like, and it's only 497 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: going to show you that so you'll learn even less dangerous. 498 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: It is dangerous and it's stuff, But that's that's the 499 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: way of the world. I am. I am not condoning 500 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: nor doors seen any search engine. I think you should 501 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: do all of your searches through the popular nineties thirties 502 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 1: crooner Bing Crosby. Yes. Done you need is a Wigi 503 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: board as well. Uh weigi board in a mixtape that 504 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: he enjoys brought it back all right, So Skip Toy said, 505 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: has this great quotation. They say that the Rothchild's family, 506 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: while much of the story is real, that their powers 507 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: often exaggerated in the modern day, say there is no 508 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: longer any such thing as a monolithic house of Rothchild 509 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: with connections to any significant number of all scores of 510 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: today's independent Rothchild business ventures. The closest thing is Rothchild's 511 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: Continuation Holdings a G, a Swiss company that manages interest 512 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 1: in many UH institutions founded by the family. They're no 513 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 1: longer any family members on the board, though about eight 514 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: Rothchilds are believed to own stakes in it, and like 515 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:01,959 Speaker 1: many holding companies, it's privately how so the records aren't public. Uh. 516 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: The other owners are Rabbo Bank and Hong Kong based 517 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 1: Jardine Mathison Holdings. So the Rothchild's funds that manages focus 518 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: on mergers and acquisitions, and although it has billions and assets, 519 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: that's relatively small in comparison to the see of world 520 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: financial institutions with trillions and assets. So he's saying, yes, 521 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: they're big, but there are bigger things around now, you know, Yeah, exactly, 522 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 1: I think he's putting in. For me, it puts in 523 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: a perspective the idea that it wouldn't be a single 524 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: family controlling anything. It would be a group, perhaps in oligarchy. 525 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: If this were true, it would be a group of 526 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 1: competing powers, essentially that all maybe want a similar goal 527 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: or perhaps are even fighting within themselves, which to me 528 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: makes the whole thing a lot less plausible. Right, Yeah, 529 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: I could see what you're saying. It's it's easy, it's 530 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: tempting to think in more hollywood ish terms. But but yeah, 531 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: it's so we we oh, we shall also point out 532 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,719 Speaker 1: one thing the economic stats. Oh yes, So the UK 533 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: has a gross domestic product of two point four four 534 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 1: trillion dollars while the US has a GDP of fifteen 535 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: point six eight trillion. So economically anyway, um, officially, the 536 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: US just annihilates the UK. And that's not even talking 537 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 1: about military might or not the money spent on military 538 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: every Yeah, that's a really good point, guys, because I 539 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: don't know how um yeah, but I mean, but but 540 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: if we're just you know, a puppet government, then they 541 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: control of that too. Well yeah, because if they're in control, 542 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: oh man, then we're just the we're the security and 543 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: they are the economic head in a way. Oh no, 544 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: we're the muscle. They're the brains. Were the dumb ones were? 545 00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: They do have more experience. Yeah, they've been building in uh, 546 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: controlling colonies for a long time. Yeah, it's true. And 547 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,439 Speaker 1: you know, it startles a lot of people who don't 548 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:12,360 Speaker 1: live in a Commonwealth country to learn about the status 549 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: of commonwealths, you know, and why why the US is 550 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: not one but Canada is or Australia is. You know, 551 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: this can be this can be very strange to someone 552 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 1: who's not familiar with that system. So there is some 553 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: degree of control there. So what's the takeaway here? No, 554 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm just gonna lay it out here for you, 555 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: at least what I believe. It might not be as 556 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 1: simple as saying that the UK controls the US, but 557 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean there are no nefarious, backdoor avenues of 558 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: that kind of control, right Matt. Yeah, you can look 559 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: at several past episodes that we've done specifically on the 560 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: Council on Foreign Relations. I think that's correct. I forget 561 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 1: if it's on foreign relations, of of I think it's 562 00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: on also the Trilateral Commission to very interesting groups that 563 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: work inside the United States but have influences from outside 564 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 1: of it. Sure, Builder Bird's uh, the Bohemian grove parties, Uh, 565 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 1: Skull and Bones all kinds of jazz does sound like 566 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: some swinging shin digs that. I'll tell you that. The 567 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 1: Bohemian growth Bohemian just the name of it just makes 568 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 1: it sound like having a good old time. From what 569 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: I hear, it's their world leaders who are just getting 570 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 1: college level smashed. Yeah, but let's not forget that the US, 571 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 1: along with several other you know, English speaking countries, form 572 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: a super tight enknit and very highly secretive intelligence community. 573 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 1: So it's tough to know who pulls the strings. It's 574 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: probably not the Queen though you think so, and I 575 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: think it's probably not. I've figured it out, guys, I've 576 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: just now figured it out. I know who pulls the strings. 577 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: Who pulls the strings? I'm actually stealing this from an 578 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,399 Speaker 1: internet video I saw, I think in two thousand four. 579 00:35:55,920 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: But there are three string pullers, Okay. In the United States, 580 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: it's the military industrial complex, Oh, I remember this one. 581 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: In the United Kingdom it's the financial industrial complex. And 582 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: in Rome, guess what it is the spiritual Yeah, industrial nice. 583 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: So the commander of the U. S Armed Forces and 584 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: the wealthiest person in the UK and the Pope and 585 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 1: the pope walk into a bar. Uh wow. No, I'm 586 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 1: not gonna try to make a choke with that. Uh No, 587 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,720 Speaker 1: you can cut this if you want. Will you please 588 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 1: do the pope voice? Okay? Well that means can I 589 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 1: ask the Pope a question? Yes? Ask uh pope? Um, 590 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:58,839 Speaker 1: so do you control the world in some way? Ask 591 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 1: a man? I got a question? Okay? Um? Who does 592 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 1: your taxes? Okay? Matt, Matt, be cool. Now that was 593 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 1: pretty close. You can't go around asking the pope questions 594 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 1: like you're right? Sorry, Um, I just got nervous and 595 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 1: just started a question started popping out. Yeah, I'm just 596 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 1: I'm glad we made it through it. We shouldn't push 597 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: our luck. Guys. It's probably time to get out of here, 598 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: but I want to end on try to end on 599 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: a positive note here. Who controls the US? Theoretically the voters? Yes? 600 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 1: So what does that mean? We're in an election cycle 601 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 1: right now? You know we have historically low voter or 602 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: turned out. It'd be cool if folks would vote. I'm 603 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: not going to say who you should vote for. But 604 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 1: I just think in general it's probably a good idea, 605 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 1: knowing what Ben just said is in fact true, that 606 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 1: is what our system is based on, probably a good 607 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: idea to exercise that right. Well, think of it like 608 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: think of it like the tax you pay for the 609 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 1: right to complain about politics until the next election. Yeah, absolutely, 610 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: that's that's probably the best way to do it. And 611 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,840 Speaker 1: if you're a person who, for one reason or another 612 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 1: is a conscientious subjector to voting, then honestly, you forfeit 613 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: your right to complain about politicians in general because you 614 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: had a chance to do one very small thing. It's 615 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: very small. Yeah, and again this is an extremely complicated 616 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,919 Speaker 1: subject when you break start breaking down what vote means 617 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: in a particular area about super PACs. But but Ben 618 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: is absolutely right in that that is the one thing 619 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 1: that you have as a power right now that you 620 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: can use. I had a funny conversation with them, just 621 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: started to get a contagiently we're closing it out. So 622 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 1: let's let's call this the the close out tangent. Now 623 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: we need a green name for this. Uh the segment 624 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: is it the close out broke? Because because it used 625 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: to be so when we in in your name. So 626 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 1: here's what I propose. We need a fourth person. No, no, 627 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: there's not an affair in this box for a fourth person. Um, 628 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 1: what I propose is listeners. If you guys, we are 629 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,800 Speaker 1: thinking about doing some couple of little segments that we 630 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: pop up with here and there. So if anyone you 631 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 1: guys have any cool ideas for the name of the 632 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 1: segment at the end where we kind of wrap up 633 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 1: the topic and then we talked about whatever we want 634 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:24,360 Speaker 1: to give us your suggestions. Yeah, about what I was 635 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 1: gonna say was, um, yeah, my my roommate, um, Frank 636 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 1: who you guys know? You guys, I mean Ben and 637 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 1: Matt Um. But listeners, you should get to know Frank too. 638 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 1: He's a lovely fellow. He's good. But we were talking 639 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: last night about how it seems in a lot of 640 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 1: ways that Citizens United has failed because look at what's 641 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 1: going on. It's all of these billionaires like put their 642 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 1: money behind, like Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio, and Trump 643 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 1: is just trouncing both of them with his own money. 644 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: And maybe this is like an unusual situation and this 645 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:01,840 Speaker 1: is you know, not this is like the exception to 646 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 1: the rule. But as as incredible and awe inspiring and 647 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: comical as everything with Donald Trump is, I do get 648 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 1: a little bit of satisfaction out of seeing, you know, 649 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: these billionaires losing all this money. I wonder it's early on, 650 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: and yet as well as early on, we've seen it 651 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: before with other like Pero Rossbero. I mean, he was 652 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: a billionaire putting forth his own money. I think. I 653 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 1: don't think it's a new thing necessarily, but it is 654 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,879 Speaker 1: definitely ridiculous the amount of money that's just been kind 655 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 1: of thrown away. I'm just saying, like you know, everyone 656 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 1: with Citizens United said, oh, this means that the billionaires 657 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,799 Speaker 1: and the corporations can buy elections. Doesn't seem like it's 658 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: quite that simple necessarily. That's all I'm saying. It's it's 659 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 1: sort of a bad road to a sort of positive realization. 660 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 1: That's a that's a good point. And you know, I 661 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:51,919 Speaker 1: hadn't thought about that in a long time. I haven't 662 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 1: thought about the impact of the Citizens United ruling. Um. Yeah, wow, 663 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 1: I feel like a horrible citizen of the country. And 664 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 1: can you guys settle one thing for me real quick 665 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: before we get out of here. Whatever happened to equal 666 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:08,800 Speaker 1: time in news coverage for political candidates. Is that just 667 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 1: not a thing anymore? Debates? Yeah, but it's not no, no, 668 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: not not debates, just with coverage. I thought there was 669 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,280 Speaker 1: a thing where you know, if you give a certain 670 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 1: amount of attention and coverage to one candidate, that you 671 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,800 Speaker 1: have to match that with any other candidate. Is that 672 00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 1: not that I am not making that up, that I'm 673 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 1: not learned that in civics class when I was a kid. 674 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 1: But it does not seem like that's happening, That's all 675 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: I'm saying. It doesn't seem like it applies because there 676 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: will be let's see, uh, networks that lean more to 677 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 1: the left here in the US will cover Hillary Clinton 678 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:46,399 Speaker 1: pretty extensively and not really cover Donald Trump except to say, 679 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 1: you know, here's a gaff or something, and then you know, 680 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 1: on the other hand, it's it's reversed. And conservative networks, 681 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:57,799 Speaker 1: more right leaning networks will show um show clips, lionizing 682 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: the handed the most successful canda, which I guess at 683 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,479 Speaker 1: this point would be Donald Trump, and then just only 684 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 1: report democratic stuff if they are you know, if there 685 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 1: are gaps or if there are questions they're shady business 686 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: with email, for instance, Yeah, just so you know, this 687 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 1: goes back to the Communications Act of nineteen thirty four, 688 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:23,320 Speaker 1: which was amended. Uh. Let's see Title forty seven of 689 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: the United States Code by the SEC. It goes way 690 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 1: back to then, and it has evolved clier time evolved. 691 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:36,319 Speaker 1: That's an interesting phrase to use. Oh.
