Podcast 78:With everything that has happened you have to wonder, does my vote count. In the scheme of thing maybe. When you hear things that are happening in Pennsylvania about 1.8 million mail in ballots being sent out and 2.5 million returning it makes you question things. If there is voter fraud then that devalues the process.As individuals how can we stand by while a broken system is in place? I’d like to know that when everyone goes to the polls there is certainty that their votes will be tallied correctly.What do you think? Does this election have voter fraud or is it just not true?Thank you for listening. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Podcast 77: Today’s podcast is a conversation with Mike Salinas and myself about the afterlife. Mike recently listened to a podcast on Earth Ancients Podcast and it was interesting to me. Wether you are a religious person or not I think everyone is curious on what happens after we die. Most of the time we look at death as the end but maybe it’s really the beginning. Obviously when someone close to us passes we always want more time with them. Wanting to hold on is a personal problem I have myself. Letting go has always been hard.What do you believe? Is there a heaven and hell? Personally when it is all said and done I hope to see everyone on the other side. Check Out Earth Ancients Podcast:https://www.earthancients.com Thank you for listening.

Podcast 76:It doesn’t take much to notice that our political atmosphere is terrible. We have so much going on with so many issues that you can’t just say 1 thing is wrong. I think we deserve better as Americans. I think our politicians should be better. On one hand we have Donald Trump running for re-election and on the other we have what seems to be the Democratic Party running for president. No Joe Biden and Kamala Harris but the whole Democratic Party is running and looking for power.No matter where you stand or what your beliefs are stand firm to what your you beliefs are and don’t choose one side because “your family has only voted blue” or “only voted red”. Look at what the candidates policies are and what they have done in the past. See who they are before you cast your vote and see if they line up with who you want them to be.Podcast Posting LinksThank you for listening. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Podcast 75:Spotify is trying to censor Joe Rogan. Well I shouldn’t say Spotify, I should say their editors. So Spotify signs a deal with Joe Rogan, they pay him a certain amount of money, and his whole podcast library is supposed to be available. That hasn’t been the case.At what point do the employees run the show? Why is it that employees feel like they have this immense power where they say “If you don’t do this we are going to protest”. Why doesn’t Spotify say “If you don’t do your job you can quit, and protest all you want”.It’s not like there is a shortage of workers out there. Spotify signed a contract with an individual and they are supposed to honor it. Plain and simple.Thank you for listening. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Podcast 74:The first Picture is a picture of Beirut before the explosion. The second is a picture of the explosion in Beirut.Lebanon has been plagued by corruption and self serving politicians for years. Since their Civil War ended in the early 90’s there has been a rotating roster of corruption and the people have paid the price for it. Inflation of their currency has crippled things, COVID-19 hits to make it worse, then this explosion happens because a large deposit of ammonium nitrate (fertilizer) was left unchecked for years. This happened 20 days ago and the toll is this, 220 lives lost and 300,000 homes destroyed. What has the government done? The Lebanese Prime Minister and his cabinet resigned but the President won’t relinquish his power. Is he part of the problem too. Something for us to take into consideration is that things like this can happen when self serving politicians and corruption are allowed to thrive. We need to keep our own politicians in check and vote out any that have been there too long and have done nothing.Podcast Posting LinksThank you for listening. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Podcast 73:Is our speech free? Often we hear of individuals making statements and then having to pay dearly for it afterwards. We can thank cancel culture for that. Today I use the example of Drew Bree’s making a statement about standing for the American Flag. He caught some backlash behind it but I didn’t think what he said was wrong. I think he made a good statement and that should have been it. He had to make a statement about his statement later on apologizing and I think that’s ridiculous. Can he not have his own opinion? If his opinion doesn’t match up with to what everyone else wants why is it a problem?I think cancel culture needs to come to an end. It is one thing to hold someone accountable. It’s a completely different thing to ruin someones lively hood over something that can be trivial.Thank you for listening. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Podcast 72:Today I have a conversation with a man going through the police academy right now. We talk about his experience and joining during trying times. With everything going on these days it's difficult to think about joining the police. Unless you have a sense of service. Now is the time for good men and women to step up to the plate and repair the broken relationship the police have in some community's. A lot of the men and women who do the job do it honorably.

Podcast 71George Floyd was murdered a few days ago and now Minneapolis is under civil unrest. Tensions with police have risen and everyone is looking for answers. The problem is no one knows where to find them. You can’t just say cops need to stop killing blacks because that is just the outcome of the problem. The root of the problem is that police officers are under trained. They need more training. How many people need to die before the people in power see that additional training is needed and that it needs to start happening now.As a supporter of law enforcement it’s ok to support them and condemn police violence. It’s ok to say there is a problem and that it needs to be fixed. Why do we respond to these tragic events with looting and violence. I understand that there is anger. I understand that people want justice. Looting and burning down buildings doesn’t fix the problem. It creates new problems. Burning down a police precinct is going to need to be fixed. The money that is going to be used to fix it is going to come from the tax payer. In closing it’s important to understand that not all police officers are bad. There are a great number of them that do their job right and put their lives on for the citizens in their towns. Podcast Posting LinksThank you for listening. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Podcast 68:As people we live our daily lives with no regard to how it can change from one day to the next. Days can blend in with each other. When a pandemic happens the most dangerous thing happens. People go crazy. With COVID-19 people are making a run on the stores for toilet paper and hand sanitizer among other things. I think it's important to take other people into consideration and just take what you need and not screw over other people because you have 100 rolls of toilet paper.This is a great learning experience to test your preparedness. Take notes on what you have done right and what you can improve on so when we get past this epidemic you can prepare yourself better just in case this happens again.Thank you for listening.

Podcast 59:Teachers have been under attack. In the past month alone there have been 3 incidents with students getting into physical fights with teachers. I think these are examples of important lesson not being taught at home. I also talk about the teacher strike in Chicago and how even though Chicago has immense tax revenue it mismanages their money and can't pay teachers. Education is lacking in the city of Chicago. Violence is high. I think because the city doesn't put enough into education, teachers don't get the tools they need. They aren't afforded an environment that is conducive to learning, and the kids pay the price. Mayor Lightfoot just started her term but she has a lot of work to do. Thank you for listening.

Jeffrey Epstein was arrested on charges for sex trafficking of minors. He was arrested July 6, 2019. In 2005 investigations started on him and in 2008 he was charged. He got off on a very lenient deal. 18 months prison. Instead of going to state prison like most sex offenders he got his own wing at the Palm Beach Stockade. It makes you wonder who was protecting this guy? He allegedly has information of other powerful men having sex with young girls at his mansion and other properties. Christine Pelosi (Daughter of Nancy Pelosi) said in a tweet that some information may be coming out on some of there "faves".

At the beginning Facebook was just a place where people went to look at pictures of friends or look at pictures of love interests. As time has gone on it has turned into something completely different. Now it's a place where business's can interact with clients and potential clients. Friends old and new connecting. Also a place for people to post images and news articles from trustworthy new sources and untrustworthy sources. It is because of the latter where problems have come about on what Facebook is and what it does.Lastly the there were 2 Democratic debates last week.

Gun Violence in general is bad. Even worse is trying to politicize a situation and not look for a definitive solution for the problem. Criminals don't go to the gun store to buy guns. They get guns by other means. Creating more gun laws don't prohibit criminals from getting weapons, it makes it harder for law abiding people to get them. So if gun laws don't work what will? I believe investing in the education system is the solution. If we could invest more money in kids and educate them, they would be less inclined to join gangs and commit crime.

Fair Oaks Farms is under fire right now because of some inhumane treatment of some of the cattle at the farm. There was video tapped mistreatment of the calves and cows. This was brought to light and a lot of local grocery stores that they do business with have been pulling out of their business relationships with the farm. You would think there would be some kind of oversight on this kind of thing already. To the owners credit he started firing some of the individuals before this report came out.Also the amount of beef that is consumed in the United States is incredibly high. I go over some statistics on how much beef we eat as well as chicken.Thank you for listening. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

This podcast may open up some eyes to a few things. I also think some may look at their social media feeds a little differently. Social media censorship is a real thing. You are not allowed to say certain things on social media or you may face some consequences.With our constitutional rights to free speech can social media companies censor us? I understand having kid filters but censoring adults is a different story. When watching or reading the news be sure to look into what you have watched from another credible sources. People often times go to facebook and take what they see as fact without fact checking.I also read an article on why Crossfit left Facebook and Instagram that was great. They have great points and I stand behind all of them.Thank you for listening. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Gary Gordon and Randy Shughart are personal hero's of mine. I saw Blackhawk Down as a kid and their characters were the biggest thing I took away from the movie. I thought of selflessness and how important it is. I thought about the camaraderie of the military. To be willing to give your life for one another.I was headed to basic training in 2 weeks after seeing that movie and I was excited for what I was joining. They had a huge impact on my life and I never had the honor of meeting them. It was a good example to live by. To accept that you are not the most important person but a piece of a whole is something that I live by.We all have something to be thankful for. On Memorial Day we should all be thankful for all of the Men and Women that have given their lives for this country.Rate, review, and subscribe please.

New York passed new abortion legislation in 2019 that made abortion legal after 28 weeks. This week Alabama practically banned abortion outright. It seems the states are in a race to outlaw or keep legalization.There are so many opinions about the issue and a lot of people have been weighing in on it. Its seems that with most there is either one of the other and I believe that there is an area in the middle that can appease everyone. Also one big thing that is missing is accountability from individuals that put themselves in these situations. I'm talking about the traditional unwanted pregnancy not rape or incest victims. I think young women and young men should be better educated on the consequences of their decisions. Let me know what you think.Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Boxing is one of the main forms of self defense that I feel people should be familiar with. That is because every fight starts with 2 people standing so you should know at least how to throw a proper punch. On the show today we have someone who threw punches better than most.Ruben T"he Modern Warrior" Galvan. Ruben Galvan has fought on HBO, PPV, ESPN and Showtime, in places like the MGM Grand versus opponents like Caesar Chavez Jr. (19-0), Zab Judah (34-4), Marty Jakubowski (111-6). He was a great fighter and now he talks with us about his life boxing.We also talk about some of the outside influences in his life and how they affected his career. Many times we see the outside life of someone you see on TV. Maybe it's a moment of triumph and think that its normal for things just to go right for people. For some that's true but it isn't always the case.Rate, review, and subscribe please.

J.B. Pritzker, the Governor of Illinois released plans to legalize marijuana in Illinois. It is a divisive issue because there are people that are for it and some who are not. Most importantly is what are the ramifications of doing so?When prohibition started it was the birth of organized crime. Now that marijuana is becoming legal in a commonly know corrupt state like Illinois, who knows what it holds. Most noteworthy is Chicago's influence on the entire state. Normally everything runs through Chicago and just trickles down to the rest of the state. It is noted that Law Enforcement and the NAACP do not agree with this legislation. So will this make even more tension with the citizens and police?There are some positive notes though. There are benefits to marijuana like helping people with chronic pain. CBD oil is already legal and there are many benefits that people are already benefiting from. Some individuals pain is worse than others. For some marijuana helps with their anxiety and depression. Most importantly I hope this doesn't effect kids in a negative way. Based on the study that Denver conducted on it's 5 years of legalized marijuana use things didn't turn out that bad. Let's hope Illinois can say the same 5 years later.Rate, review, and subscribe please.

2 former Rochester Drug Co-Operative executives Laurence Doud III and William Pietruszewski were brought up on charges of conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance and conspiracy to defraud the US. William Pietruszewski is also charged with willfully failing to file suspicious order reports with the Drug Enforcement Administration. If found guilty they could spend life in jail. Pretty brutal. There is an opioid crisis. People are overdosing. Opioid use is ruining lives and drug company's are profiting . In addition drug dealers on the street are lacing other drugs with Fentanyl. Now these super drugs are being sold and some people don't know this. Therefore they buy these drugs and they overdose from it because their bodies can't handle it. An easy solution to the problem is just don't do drugs. Unfortunately it's not that easy. Furthermore the problem is with opioids it is very easy to get addicted. If you have a knee or a back surgery and you get prescribed Oxycodone. It's pretty normal. The thing is once you use it you start getting used to it, then getting off is really hard. Above all it is believed that these men willfully stocked pharmacies that were not supposed to have Oxycodone. They were supposed to file paperwork to the DEA on what they thought were bad practices and they didn't. They valued profits over people's lives and that is horrible! How do you punish such a powerful company though? It is said they will have to pay a 20 million dollar fine and reform it's compliance program. This is pretty much a slap on the wrist and doesn't set an example from prohibiting other company's from doing this. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Sri Lanka was rocked with a tragedy this weekend. Bombs went off at 8 different locations killing 200 and wounding 450. Those figures are bound to go up. The bombs went off in 8 locations and most noteworthy, it is believed that the attack was meant to target Christians. It's difficult to comprehend something like this. Normally we see what the tragedy is, say how terrible it is, then go on with our day. It's important to understand that these things can happen here as well. The Government and first responders can't protect us all the time. Therefore we need to know the basics on how we can help our selves so that when help arrives your not to far to gone. CPR, First Aid, and Stop the Bleed training is a great place to start. This is great information to have and you would be glad you know it when you need it.Sri Lanka had a civil war between 1983 to 2009. An attack like this upsets the balance that they have fought so hard for. Instead of looking at this like a terrible event, we should look at it as a learning experience as well. We can learn to be more alert when we leave home and keep an eye on what is going on in the world around us. By doing this we make it safer not only for ourselves but for our fellow citizens around us. Rate, review, and subscribe please.

Flint Michigan has been having water quality issues for quiet some time now. They are getting 77 Million to help with projects that will complete a pipeline hooking up to a secondary water source, replacement of the Northwest Transmission Main, and water meter replacements to name a few. It makes one wonder "how did it come to this"? Shouldn't the local government have a plan in place to have had these things done years ago? Notre Dame Cathedral went a blaze (which is horrific) and the government wants to help by sending money as a donation. Why not use that money to help out Flint Michigan? The Notre Dame Cathedral is getting tons of support from very wealthy people and I don't think we need to send any cash there when we have more pressing issues here.One of the most noteworthy is the border problem we are having. Yuma Arizona is the first border town to declare a proclamation of emergency. They are getting too many immigrants and they can't support all of them and are looking for government help.Also I talk about a story of an alert citizen that helped some people in need after a rollover accident. I go over being aware of the situation you are in. Taking a moment to see the situation before you act.

Dr Dan Pronk is an ex-special forces doctor with the Australian Special Air Service. His Book "Average 70KG Dickhead" was an excellent read. Some books read fast and some read slow. I would say this book read at a great pace. Not to fast and not to slow. Dan really broke down what he was experiencing at the time and then articulated what he learned. He stressed the lessons learned while also giving examples of mistakes that he made. That's helpful because sometimes when we hear a story we think to ourselves "how can I learn from this".This was a fun interview to say the least. As I read passages from the book, Dan put what he was experiencing into perspective and was able to elaborate on his message. The book ranges in lessons that he learned as a triathlete to lessons learned on the battlefield. He gives examples of perseverance and lessons in humility.The beauty of books is that everyone takes away what they want from the story. Here I was able to ask specific questions and get specific answers from Dan. Average 70KG Dickhead gives great perspective into Dan's life. .

The Cosmos is a breadth of wonder and awe. Wednesday a new picture of a blackhole was released. It's pretty amazing because all they were able to capture was a distorted ring of light surrounding it. Most noteworthy it is estimated to be the 6.5 billion times bigger than our Sun. These things are always interesting because it show just how small we are compared to everything else. Our everyday problems and what we consider to be a big deal is nothing compared to the scheme of things of the universe.Religion is a touchy subject for a lot of people. I don't think it needs to be as long as we respect each other. Mike and I give our opinions of religion and what we believe. We live in a day and age where it isn't exactly trendy to believe in God and I don't think that is a good thing. Therefore I believe it is important for us to take into consideration our mortality and what happens after we leave this earth. Most importantly we need to be responsible for our actions.Also we talk about our streaming TV selection of "YoutubeTV" raising their rates. Avengers: Endgame is coming out soon and there are no spoilers given. Just the rumor that it is going to be 3 hours long!

It is becoming incredibly obvious that the mainstream media enables people. There are people that watch the news, take it at face value, and go on with their lives. It doesn't matter what it is said. They just believe what is told to them. When people do that it leaves the truth out in the wind and it changes their behavior in a way where they blame things that happen to them because what is told to them on the news. This happens on the left and the right. This could be the reason why there are such extremes of both sides. The mainstream media I believe is the result of all the divisiveness in our country right now.Next we talk about Target recently raising its minimum wage to $13 an hour. What implications will this have? I think it's good that wages rise with inflation but at what point will people working menial jobs be making more than others with degrees?After that we talk about one of our old bars we used to go to back in the days called Franco's. It was an awesome place and we've got a million memories from there.Check out our website and follow us on social media!Websitehttps://57podcast.com/Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/57_podcast/Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/57Podcast/Twitterhttps://twitter.com/57Podcast

Pre and Mike talk pollution statistics, 10 bad last names, and sports. Seems like there is a lot going on these days and we wanted to lighten it up a little bit.We go over some pollution statistics that I spoke about on the last podcast. Most noteworthy is how the mainstream media makes us believe that the United States is the biggest culprits. Yes in the past we did our fair share but we have cleaned things up considerably. I think we can all do better. However we not the worst polluters on this planet and the attention needs to be shifted to those that are responsible. After that we lighten it up with some unfortunate bad last names and close it out with a little bit of sports. We had some fun tonight and I think you will too.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has come onto the political scene fast and hard. Most noteworthy, Joe Crowley lost his seat to her and she hasn't looked back since. He had been a congressman for in the 7th and 14th district for a 20 year career and it was considered a huge upset. Her politics are considered "far left". Therefore, she has some very strong opinions on what she thinks needs to happen. Today we go over where she came from and how she made it to her current position. After that we are going to talk about how she is challenging the establishment and what the "Green New Deal" is.Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a Democratic Socialist. It comes from the fact that she thinks we should give life sustaining jobs and free health care for all but no plan on how to implement it. I also go over some statistics about pollution and where the United States stands in the scheme of things.
