6
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:17,919

7
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,120
Speaker 1: didn't think we made them of our modern political leaders.

8
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:24,119
Speaker 1: They were vandalized. Captain Cook has been vandalized in Hyde Park.

00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: Hachiko statue in Shibuya. It's homage to a faithful dog

00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 1: who waited at Shabuya's station every day for his master.

12
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 2: One day, his.

00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: Master died while at giving electures a university electure. I

14
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: never came home, but Hachiko continued to go to the

15
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: station and wait every day for ten years. And they've

16
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: erected this statue to this dog.

17
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 2: Some statue.

18
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: And what about the dog on the tucker box?

19
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 2: That's a great statue. What about red dog? When I

22
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 2: this dog do? And they go Red dog. I said, yeah,

23
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 2: I know, but what did it do to deserve the statue?

24
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 2: And they say our red dog. Now, yes, red dog,

25
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 2: And I said, what did you do? He'd walk along

26
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 2: the road.

27
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: Yes, like John Howard.

28
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 2: The dog did nothing, but it got a statue. I've

29
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 2: done more than Red Dog. Where's my statue? The dog did?

30
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,080

Speaker 2: old statue in Bern, Switzerland, and it's this giant monster

37
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: that eats babies. That's odd, is it?

38
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: No one's throwing that one.

39
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:02,200

43
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: are saying she's done more positive things for Louisiana than

44
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: the Confederate cohort. So people are saying let's get a

45
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:19,959
