Fio Gede Parma discusses their book The Witch Belongs to the World: A Spell of Becoming.Fio Gede Parma - fee-oh g-deh par-mah - (they/she) is a Balinese-Australian international teacher, magical mentor, and award-winning author. They were born in the island of Bali - to Roslyn and John - and descend from Balinese, Chinese, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, and English peoples. Fio has lived in so-called Australia for most of her life, as north as Thul Garrie Waja/Gurrumbilbarra (Townsville) and as south as Naarm (Melbourne).Fio awoke as Witch at the age of 11, their numerological life path number (11/2). They dedicated themself to the Craft with a ritual from a book at age 12. Since that time Fio has been involved and initiated in the mysteries of four witch traditions: Wildwood, Anderean, Reclaiming, and Anderson Feri. Fio's magical mentors and teachers have been many, but there are a treasured handful, some among the Mighty Dead now, who have deeply inspired their work in the worlds. Their main teachers have always been the Gods, Spirits, the Witch Houses and Communities themselves, but special acknowledgement goes to Fio's parents, James A., Jarrah, Molly, Jane Meredith, Lee Morgan, Bex, Ravyn Stanfield, Raven Edgewalker, Dawn Isidora, Abel, Gwydion, Cholla - and Ni Wayan Juiti (Fio's father's mother), Felix, and Rose May Dance (1948 - 2021) of the Mighty Dead. The witchcraft and magic of these mystics, healers, spirit-workers, and priestexes deeply touch Fio's life.Fio was raised in an animistic, polytheistic, magic-affirming, spirit-knowing family - in a haunted house - whose traditions were largely impacted by what the west calls Balinese Hinduism. When forced to consider it, some Balinese name their ‘religion' Agama Tirta, Religion of the Holy Water. Ganesha, Siwa (Shiva), Krishna, Parwati Uma, Durga, Hanuman, the Barong and Rangda, the spirits and the ancestors were all spoken of, venerated, and regarded with holy awe. The skills of divination, seership, mediumship, trance possession, spirit-flight, and sorcery are practised in Fio's father's family.Fio started writing about the Craft at an early age and felt a fateful and undeniable vocation to not only immerse in the Craft but to teach witchcraft in the world and help mentor spirit-workers. They have been teaching both privately in covens and publicly at gatherings, festivals, workshops, and intensives since 2007. Fio stepped fully into their profession as a diviner, seer, community priestex and facilitator, working witch, mentor, writer, and teacher in January, 2010. This has been their whole job since that time.Their first book - Spirited: Taking Paganism Beyond the Circle was published by Llewellyn in 2009, and won the COVR award for best Wicca/Pagan book of that year; 2023 release The Witch Belongs to the World: A Spell of Becoming (Llewellyn) is a love-song to witches.https://www.fiogedeparma.com/This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3589860/advertisement

Hello and Welcome, dear listener.   Episode 86 is the beginning of a conversation with San Diego punk legend Chris Squire. Chris has done it all, he's run a record label, booked bands, done sound production, and he's either sung, played bass, guitar or drums in a ton of bands; PG13, The Tori Cobras, Belle Cora, Tit Wrench, Tiltwheel, Battalion of Saints, Russian Tremors, Kerosene, Tar Halos, Dark Sarcasm, TV Eye, Digital Leather, Bizarro Son, No Laughing Matter, Dog Boy, Royal Pains, Half On Tongue, Sloog, Blades, Unit Unit, Go Go Lords, King Wheelie, Plasticman, Cholla … to name most of them? Part one of the Squire story really starts around 1980 when he begins attending The San Diego School of the Creative and Performing Arts  where he meets his guitar and boombox toting soon to be lifelong friend John Reis who introduces him to Dead Kennedys and Black Flag and sets him on a course that takes us through to Chris starting his first band PG13 later in the 80's. Amazingly, the first hardcore show he attends in 1984 is an Aggression and Ill Repute show at Fairmount Hall that my friends and I produced! A very cool factoid I did not know. Along the way, as Chris' story unfolds we get a road map of the SD punk family tree in the 80's that is a really great historical record, told in his engaging and colorful style the conversation is as compelling and entertaining as it is information dense.  I'm glad to share this episode with you all and I'm looking forward to part two as well!

Last time we spoke about the assassination of Kim Ok-kyun and the Donhak Rebellion. Conflicts between China and Japan had heated up to the boiling point at last. The pro Japanese politician Kim Ok-kyun was assassinated serving also as an insult towards Japan. The Beiyang Fleet's visit to Nagasaki resulted in embarrassment and an awkward threat for Japan. Japan was not happy with the SINO situation and actively began building her navy to have the capability of facing off against the Beiyang fleet. Then a violent rebellion of the Donghak faith emerged in Korea prompting a very panicked King Gojong to call upon his Qing allies for aid. The Qing took up the call for help and although it differs from source to source, did or did not notify the Japanese of their actions. Regardless, both China and Japan prepared forces that would embark for Korea. The chess pieces were on the board and now things were set into motion that could not be undone.   #49 The First Sino-Japanese War of 1898-1895 Part 1: The Battle of Pungdo   Welcome to the Fall and Rise of China Podcast, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson.

If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel where I cover the history of China and Japan from the 19th century until the end of the Pacific War. The Tonghak rebels can be seen more as a symptom than a disease of the ailing Joseon dynasty. She was a nation stuck between two tigers, two tigers who were both trying to eat her. The turmoil of the later half of the 19th century was tearing Korea apart. Her citizens were forced into this quasi black and white choice between China or Japan, particularly when it came to the topic of modernization. The Tonghak followers were rallying against a tyrannical government who were overtaxing them. Major revolts occurred in 1885, 1888, 1889, 1890, 1891, 1892 and 1893. By February of 1894 the unrest rose dramatically and in April the Tonghaks were in a full scale open rebellion. The target of their hatred were the corrupt officials oppressing them through over taxation and incompetency. But one thing that is funny about the Tonghak story, one that is almost never mentioned, is rumors spread to the Tonghaks that China and Japan were on the verge of sending troops and this prompted them on June 1st to agree to a cease-fire to remove the possibility of foreign intervention. Well that should have been the end of our story, China and Japan keep their boys home and the 3 nations lived happily ever after? On June 2nd, the Japanese cabinet decided to send troops to Korea, if China did so, they also made sure to muzzle any political opposition by asking the emperor to dissolve the lower chamber of the diet. We have the official documentation to back this, thus if China did not send troops, Japan would not have a justification to send there's, however a problem arose. The next day, King Gojong on the recommendation of the Min clan and Yuang Shikai, requested China send troops to help suppress the rebellion. King Gojong had thus unwittingly given the hawkish Japanese military leaders the pretext they desired for so long, another chance to intervene in Korea on a large scale. Why did the Min clan push King Gojong to do this despite the Tonghak basically calling a truce? Turns out the Tonghak's were particularly targeting the Min clan and their allies and there were rumors they had contact with the Daewongun. Within a few days Japan is on a military footing. On June 5th the first IJA HQ is established and on the 6th the ministries of the IJA and IJN issued instructions to the press not to print any information concerning warlike operations, they mean business. Despite this many Japanese news outlets ignore the order, leading to countless being suspended for a day. Now again the sources are sticky with how this part goes down, but on June 7th, China notified Japan in accordance with the Treaty of Tianjin. The notification states that China is sending 2000 troops to Nanyang, which is located on the coast between Seoul and Asan. Within hours of receiving the notification, Japan sends its own notice to China that it is also sending troops, which is in line with the treaty. Also at this same time the Asahi Shinbun reports that Russia is sending ground forces and warships to Korea. It seems the Asahi Shinbun made this report largely to compare the actions of Japan and China to a western power, alongside noting how much Japan had modernized. Remember, Japan's Meiji restoration began exclusively as a means to thwart colonization, but by this point Japan now seeks to become a world power. Japan is emulating the greatest nations of the world, and the actions she will take for the following years certainly emphasize that. Within days, 2000 Japanese IJA forces have landed and are marching towards Seoul despite the Korean government pleading for them to refrain from sending forces. It is far too late however, the troops are arriving and it seems Japan was prepared well in advance to do this. In accordance with the treaty of Tianjin, the end of the rebellion meant that China and Japan no longer had legitimate grounds to send forces and should have withdrawn. But Japan began making claims their troop deployment was necessary for the protection of their embassy, consulates and citizens within Korea. Now by the 8th, 4000 Japanese soldiers and 500 sailors have landed at Jemulpo, current day Incheon. A public ceasefire acknowledge for the Donghak rebellion is issued on the 11th, though it is already known days before. The harbor of Incheon looks like its participating in an international naval show. On the 13th 9 IJN warships and transports along with 4 Beiyang warships are anchored there. Alongside them are an assortment of international ships from nations like Russia, Britain, France and America. Also on the 13th the Japanese government sends a telegraph to the commander of Japanese forces in Korea, Otori Keisuke to keep the forces within Korea for as long as possible despite the public announcement that the Donghak rebellion is over. On the 15th another 8 more Japanese transports arrive with 6000 troops disembarked. On the 16th Japanese foreign minister Mutsu Munemistu meets with the Qing ambassador to Japan, Wang Fengzao to discuss the future status of Korea. Wang states the Qing government intends to pull out of Korea once the Donghak rebellion is fully suppressed and expects Japan to do the same. But he also acknowledges that China will retain a resident to look after Chinese primacy in Korea, ie: Mr Yuan Shikai. Soon there are 10 IJN warships actively patrolling Korean waters and on the 18th the ministry of the IJN issues new naval fleet regulations. On the other side, Li Hongzhang is trying desperately to avoid war and maintain stable relations with Japan. He has been spending years doing this, trying to get other Western powers to take a more active role in Korea to thwart Japan's ambitions over her. During this period and even in the upcoming war, Li Hongzhang continues to try and involve western powers to end the conflict. When King Gojong pleaded for help, Li Hongzhang made sure the troops would not go directly to Seoul, which he knew would upset Japan. The troops instead went to Nanyang and Asan where they could hit the Donghak before they marched northwards from Cholla upon Seoul. Li Hongzhang had hoped by doing this, the Japanese would choose not to become involved, but he was gravely wrong. Once Japan began sending troops, Li proposed to the Japanese that both nations should agree to withdraw. On the 16th Japan made a counterproposal, stating China and Japan should cooperate in assisting Korea to undertake the major steps to promote modernization. However it was obvious to all, Japan sought to promote economic development in Korea for its own interests, to obtain Korean grain at cheap prices. Thus Japan's proposal was refused. On the 22nd Prime Minister Ito Hirobumi told his fellow politician colleague Matsukata Masayoshi, he believed the Qing empire was making military preparations and that “there is probably no policy but to go to war”. Mutsu Munemitsu likewise sends word to Otori Keisuke to press the Korean government on Japanese demands. On the 26nd Otori presents a set of reform proposal to King Gojong, but instead of accepting them, he insists on troop withdrawals. At about this time, Yuan Shikai see's the paint on the wall and on the 27th requests permission from Li Hongzhang to return to China. However Li Hongzhang only sent a response 20 days later granting it. On July 19th, Yuan Shikai would disguise himself as a Chinese servant of a Russian military attache and flee Seoul for Peking. In the later half of June, Japanese newspapers are ramping things up. The Japan Weekly Mail read this “It is apparent that the restless energies of the people yearn for employment in a foreign war”, a week later “The Tokyo journals unite in urging upon the Government the importance of utilizing the present opportunity for wiping away the stain left on the national honor by th fatal error of 1884”. The bitter lesson learnt from 1884, next time bring more men. Such news articles were working wonders as during the last week of June, Japanese public petitions from multiple prefectures were requesting permission to raise troops. In early July an imperial ordinance established extraordinary powers to regulate the sale of goods with military applications raising public concern. By the third week of july, the “Korean question” was the only thing in the Japanese press and the Japan Weekly Mail predicted “It now looks as though war is inevitable”. Indeed on July 7th the British ambassador to China openly acknowledged the mediation between China and Japan had failed. Now initially China just sent 2-3 thousand forces, while Japan matched them with 8000, these are the numbers they are reporting officially, the real numbers for both are much higher. Regardless, once the fighting begins, both sides toss troops into Korea at such a high rate it was hard for people to keep actual figures. Now Li Hongzhang made no war preparation attempts to match the increasing Japanese numbers coming into Korea. His strategy remained to avoid hostilities. He hoped to secure European intervention to rein in the Japanese, this was his primary strategy. Li Hongzhang was the commander of the Qing's most modern military force and had a considerable amount of knowledge about Japan because of his role as a diplomat. He knew the Qing forces were no match for the IJA, for that there is no doubt. Li worked like a mad dog to push European powers to rescue the Korea situation, but he had overestimated their willingness to intervene and to be honest their disgust with the Qing political situation. Li Hongzhang seems to have misread the political situation in Japan as well. Many Chinese officials in Japan were feeding reports back to China about feuding between the Diet and Cabinet and their conclusions were that the political divisions would most likely prevent Japan from launching an effective military campaign. Its sort of interesting they came to such conclusions, as it may have been more of a understanding of their own Chinese political situation rather than Japan. The Manchu-Han division was indeed hampering Chinese foreign policy for example, but Japan shared a national identity, it was a case of apples and oranges. Li Hongzhang first turned to Russia for help in mid June, but it came to nothing. Britain made an effort, but failed. Italy tried mediation and like Britain failed. King Gojong went to the Americans for help, but they were employing an isolationist policy at the time. Yes good old isolationist America, back in the ol days.  Now when the Japanese made their counter proposal and the Qing declined it on June 21st, Japan responded by stating they did not intend to withdraw from Korea until their reforms were implemented. Li responded “On the approach of the Chinese forces the insurgents [Tonghaks] dispersed. China now desires to withdraw, but Japan refuses to evacuate simultaneously with China, and proposes a joint occupation, the administration of Korean finances, and the introduction of reforms. These are tasks which China cannot accept." The reality of the matte for the Japanese government was that the current Korean situation did not meet her national security interests nor her economic ones. As Japan poured her troops into Korea, her politicians also put relentless pressure on King Gojong to implement their desired reforms. The Korean government unsuccessfully tried to convince Japan that they would adopt the reforms if they withdrew their troops.  On July 22nd, the Japanese received word, Li Hongzhang had overcome domestic opposition with the Qing court and now large reinforcements were going to be sent to Korea. Though Li Hongzhang wanted to avoid hostilities, his hands were tied, if the Qing did retain a presence in Korea it would threaten the legitimacy of their Manchu dynasty. But in a typical Qing fashion, the troops were delayed and would not make it to Korea in time. Well the Japanese were done dancing with the Chinese and Korean, on the 23rd the IJA forces in Seoul suddenly stormed the Joseon royal palace and took King Gojong hostage. The New York Times had this to say "The Japanese have announced that they will hold the King of Corea as a hostage until the internal reforms demanded by Japan shall have been satisfactorily guaranteed." Well the Tonghak rebellion flared right back up and took rapid momentum, going from what was a regional event to a national uprising. The IJA were brutal in their suppression of the Tonghaks and this fueled the Korean public against them. Likewise the Qing were placed with their backs against the wall, if they did nothing about Japans seizure of King Gojong, they were basically giving up suzerainty over Korea. Japan's actions were obvious, they wanted war and they were going to get it. On the afternoon of the 23rd, with King Gojong in hand, the IJA began storming and disarming Korean garrisons in Seoul. By the end of the day the capital of Korea was in Japanese hands. The Japanese then recalled the Daewongun to oversee the Japanese style reform program. Yes the anti-foreign, isolationist icon ironically was chosen. The Daewongun always looking for an opportunity to regain power had little options laid bare to him so he took up the job, on the sole condition Japan refrain from annexing any Korean territory. That day the Daewongun met with King Gojong at the royal palace, they had not seen each other for nearly a decade. The father scolded his son for misrule and Gojong apologized requesting the Daewongun become regent again. I will add these sources are coming from Japan, I am sure it did not at all go down like this. Give the sort of feeling when you read about Hernan Cortez and Moctezuma II, if you know the sources for that one, well you know. The Daewongun went to work, immediately exiling the Min clan to some small islands and the new government renounced multiple treaties with the Qing dynasty, thus severing its tributary ties.  The Japanese backed reform program became known as the Kabo reform movement, which would go on from July 1894 to February 1896. It was not all bad to be honest, a lot of it was to create an efficient and honest government. Posts were given fixed responsibilities and salaries; a national budget was established; better tax structure; the military/judiciary and educational system were given overhauls and the nation's infrastructure was modernized rapidly. The most significant reform was taking away the Yangbang class monopoly on public offices, basically an end to the Chinese examination system. In a single stroke the Japanese had destroyed Korea's aristocracy, the elites were destroyed. As for the Daewongun, ever the plotter, he secretly envisioned a pincer movement on Seoul with the Tonghaks from the south and the Qing from the north. Unfortunately for him, the Japanese found out about this later on when they found documents containing such plans and this would lead later on to him being forced into retirement.  Li Hongzhang knew Qing forces were no match for the Japanese. Zhili, Shandong and the Fengtian provinces had around 40 battalions with 20,000 or so first-line action men and 20 battalions only fit for garrison duty. All of the rest were Green Standards who were pretty useless. And lets be honest, this series has shown the Green Standards to be …well nothing less than so. He faced around 50,000 Japanese to his estimates, and he concluded they would need to recruit 20-30 additional battalions which would set back the dynasty 2-3 million taels. William Ferdinand Tyler who served in the Beiyang northern squadron and witness the battles of Yali and Weihaiwei later on had this to say of Li's position "the Viceroy's game was merely bluff, not genuine defence; his army and navy were the equivalent of the terrifying masks which Eastern medieval soldiers wore to scare their enemy. He knew that if it came to actual blows he would stand but little chance; but he carried on his bluff so far that withdrawal was impossible, and the Empress Dowager urged him on - probably much against his will. And Japan 'saw him,' as they say in poker." Just about everyone believed China would stomp Japan however. British envoy to China, Sir Robert Hart embodied the worldview stating “999 out of every 1000 Chinese are sure big China can thrash little Japan”. But China was fractured realistically. Empress Dowager Cixi's authority over the dynasty was only held because it was fractured, she could not allow the nation to have a real unified government. Such a government would most certainly unify against her and the Manchu. To stay in power Cixi checked every possible rival, even Li Hongzhang. All of the internal turmoil undermined the Qing's ability to modernize its military and this also caused factional rivalries within the military. Cixi controlled the funds for the Qing navy and infamously siphoned naval funds for the renovation of the Summer Palace. Li Hongzhang could not do anything about this specific matter because he would lose favor with her, and her favor was all that kept his authority so he could deal with the conflict. Yet all these internal problems were non existent in the minds of the elites in China nor the western onlookers who simply believed China would give Japan a quick spanking, take this from the North China Herald  "the breaking out of war between China and Japan is only a question of days, perhaps of hours. The real reason for Japan's desire for war was "that the Japanese government prefers a foreign to a civil war. The discontent of the majority of the House of Representatives was getting serious...A foreign war, however, is expected to reunite the people; it is an outlet for the bad blood which has been accumulating of late years in the body politic."  While the Japanese were doing everything possible to stir up a war, Li Hongzhang was extremely careful to minimize the possibility of a clash. He ordered the Qing forces to encamp 80 miles to the south of Seoul around Asan. He was in contact with the Tonghak and indeed a pincer maneuver was agreed upon. The Qing forces took up a stance between Asan and Pyongyang and the Japanese realized it would be much easier to hit their reinforcements at sea rather than commence with a land offensive. On July 16th, when 8000 Qing forces arrived to Pyongyang, the Japanese sent Li Hongzhang an ultimatum, threatening to take action if any additional forces were sent to Korea. At the same time orders were given to General Oshima Yoshimasa leading the 9th brigade of the 5th division at Chemulpo and the commanders of IJN warships there to initiate military operations if any more Chinese troops were sent to Korea. Li Hongzhang suspected Japan was bluffing and therefore sent reinforcements to the commander at Asan, General Ye Zhichao, 2500 troops who left Dagu on 3 transports, the Irene, Fei Ching and Kowshing. The first two transports carrying 1300 of the troops left on the night of July 23rd with cruiser Jiyuan, torpedo boats Kwang-yi and Tsao-kiang as escort, they could also rely on the cruiser Weiyuan at port in Chemulpo for support. The two transports successfully landed their troops on the 24th. The IJN had deployed a component of their combined fleet to Korean waters by this point. The IJN sent 15 major warships and 7 torpedo boats under Vice Admiral Ito Sukeyuki from Sasebo to Gunsan on July 23rd. There was also the flying squadron of Rear Admiral Tsuboi Kozo who was dispatched to Chemulpo to aid the weak forced anchored there. At Chemulpo were the ships Yaeyama, Musashi and Oshima, while Tsuboi was bringing the cruisers Yoshino, Akitsushima and Naniwa. Tsuboi's task was to prevent any Qing landings. The, Captain Fang Boqian of the Jiyuan received word of the Japanese actions in Seoul and Chemulpo from the Weiyuan and on July 25 ordered the Irene and Fei Ching to head back to Dagu, while the Weiyuan would head for Weihaiwei to report to Admiral Ding Ruchang of the situation unfolding in Korea. However the third transport, the Kowshing was late, thus Fang Boqian decided to remain at Asan bay with cruiser Jiyuan and torpedo boat Kawng-yi to protect its landing.  On the morning of the 25th the Jiyuan and Kwang-yi departed Asan to meet up with the Kowshing and Tsao-kiang. Near the small island of Pundo the Qing vessels would run into the Tsuboi's squadron. Tsbuoi's had gone to Pungdo trying to rendezvous with the Yaeyama and Oshima. At around 6:40am, the Japanese spotted two warships heading south-west, these were the Jiyuan and Kawng-yi. Tsuboi guessed they were escorting Qing transports and went in to investigate. Captain Fang Boqian spotted the incoming Japanese warships, greatly alarmed by their appearance. He ordered the Qing ships to increase speed to escape and this prompted the Japanese to do the same. Yoshino headed the formation with Naniwa and Akitsushima behind, trying to outmaneuver the Qing and prevent their escape.  At 7:45am the Yoshino and Jiyuan were closing in around 3km from another, then at 7:52 Naniwa suddenly opened fire on the Jiyuan. After Naniwa, the Yoshina and Akitsushima began firing. Yoshina and Naniwa concentrated on Jiyuan while the Akitsushima fired upon the Kwang-yi which was around a km behind Jiyuan. The Qing ships returned fire, but the Japanese had distinctly taken the advantage by opening up first. The first shells hit Jiyuan's conning tower, demolishing it and severely damaged her steering mechanism. The second volley hit her forward barbette guns taking them out of action and soon shells were hitting her midship causing carnage and panic amongst her crew. Qing commanders had to quell the panic with their revolvers pointed at the gunners until they regained their composure and continued to fire upon the enemy. The Jiyuan made a dash for open sea as her crews tried to repair her steering mechanism. Meanwhile the Kwang-yi was hit at the offset of battle, the Akitsushima had fired a shell penetrating her hull below the waterline and damaging her boiler room. She rapidly took on water, prompting Captain Lin Kuohsiang to ordered her beached. Enveloped by fire, smoke and steam Kwang-yi turned southeast to beach along the shore while Naniwa began firing on her. Kwang-yi's crews quickly abandoned ship as the Naniwa shelled her ferociously causing numerous explosions and turning her into a fiery wreck. 37 of her crew died while 71 including captain Lin Kuohsiang swam to shore.  While the Kwang-yi was destroyed, the Japanese cruisers continued to pursue the Jiyuan which they caught up to at 8:10am. Yoshino and Naniwa were almost abeam of her prompting Captain Fang to prepare to surrender his warship, but then they all saw smoke from the horizon, two more warships were approaching Asan. It was the Kowshing and Tsao-Kiang. The Japanese immediately turned their attention to the new ships bolting towards them as the Jiyuan attempting sneakingaway. Upon spotting the Japanese coming at them, the Tsao-Kiang immediately turned around for Weihaiwei as the poor Kowshing continued slowly towards Asan. Upon seeing what Qing warships were before him, Tsuboi sent Naniwa over to investigate the Kowshing, Yoshino to hunt the Jiyuan and Akitsushima after the Tsao-Kiang. The Tsao-Kiang was caught by 11:37 and surrendered without a fight to the Akitsushima. At 12:05pm the Yoshino ran down the Jiyuan and began firing upon her from 2.5kms away. Captain Fang made daring move and steered his ship among some shoals, managing to escape the Yoshino who would not risk the dangerous waters. Meanwhile the Kowshing, which was a British vessel captained by Thomas Ryder Galsworthy chattered last minute by the Qing had no knowledge of the battle that had occurred. Galsworthy felt safe under the protection of the British civil ensign and just kept sailing. At 9am the Captain of the Naniwa, Captain Togo Heihachiro, yes the future legendary fleet admiral of the IJN combined fleet who would win the legendary battle of Tsushima ordered the Kowshing to follow him as he would escort it to the Japanese squadron. Galsworthy made a protest citing British neutrality, but complied nonetheless. The unfortunate issue, was the Qing soldiers on his ship who did not comply. The Qing soldiers began threatening to kill the crew if they continued to sail over with the Japanese. Galsworthy tried negotiating with the angry Qing soldiers, but when it became obvious they were in real danger he along with the British crew jumped overboard, swimming for the Naniwa. Allegedly, as the sources are Japanese mind you. The Qing soldiers began firing upon the British in the water killing all but Galsworthy and two other sailors who were rescued by the Naniwa. Upon seeing all of this, the Naniwa then opened fire on the Kowshing, completely obliterating her. Very few aboard managed to swim to safety. It was carnage. The Kowshing launched 2 lifeboats full of Qing soldiers which were fired upon by the Naniwa. 1100 Chinese died in what became known as the battle of Pungdo, 800 alone from the Kowshing. As a foreign commentator said of the event "It was truly a pitiable sight that such a number of officers [on the Kowshing], amongst whom were two generals, should not have sufficient military experience to understand the absurdity of attempting resistance in a merchant vessel against a powerful man-of-war.". The Japanese had damaged a cruiser, captured a gunboat and sank another. Something was noted by a reporter of the Japan weekly mail about the battle "the Chinese ships made a miserable fight. There seemed to be a problem with bad ammunition. The Qing had scored a hit, but  the shell had failed to explode and thus did no significant damage. It is suspected to be a result of bad equipment or careless inspection." For those of you who know about the first Sino-Japanese war, or perhaps just know the general history of Empress Dowager Cixi and the corruption of the late Qing dynasty, this is indeed one of the earliest pieces of evidence of what will be a large problem for the Qing Navy. The battle of Pungdo and sinking of the Kowshing would be soon followed by formal declarations of war. On August 1st, Japan declared war on China, stating Korea was an independent state and that China was trying to hold her as a dependency and had rejected Japan's offer to cooperate. Japan had to declare war because China had made “warlike preparations and sent large reinforcements and had opened fire on Japanese ships”. Sounds about right? There was no mention of Japanese much larger warlike preparations, the taking of King Gojong and the first shots being fired from IJN vessels. However the Japanese clearly were writing a declaration not aimed solely at China, but at the world powers, because the thing she coveted most was to join them of course. The declaration made in the name of Emperor Meiji used specific terms like “family of nations, law of nations, international treaties and such”. Japan was being very diplomatically minded. On the other side, Emperor Guangxi on the same day Japan declared ware made the formal declaration of war against Japan and did so by calling the Japanese “Woren” multiple times in the declaration. The declaration showed disdain for the Japanese, and to even make a point the Qing had it translated in English specifically referencing what Woren meant haha. The declaration wreaked of the traditional way the Qing spoke of those they considered inferior and showcased to the world powers, China had not changed much.  The world's press still remained certain, Japan would be crushed by big China. On July 24th, the Times of London predicted China would win because of her size, population and that time was on her side. British advisor to the Qing military, William Lang was interviewed by Reuters and predicted the Japanese would lose. Lang thought that the Chinese navy was well-drilled, the ships were fit, the artillery was at least adequate, and the coastal forts were strong. Weihaiwei “ was impregnable. Although Lang emphasized that everything depended on how China's forces were led, he had faith that 'in the end, there is no doubt that Japan must be utterly crushed'. Only time would tell.

Last time we spoke about the Gapsin Coup. Li Hongzhang snipped the bud of war before it could bloom after the Imo uprising and the Daewongun stole back power in Korea. The Daewongun was spanked and sent into exile yet again, but now Korea had become greatly factionalized. The progressives and conservatives were fighting bitterly to set Korea on a Japanese or Chinese path to modernization. This led radicals like Kim Ok-kyun to perform the Gapsin coup which was terribly planned and failed spectacularly. Japan and China were yet again tossed into a conflict in Korea, but China firmly won the day for she had more forces to bear. Japan licked her wounds and went home, learning a bitter lesson. That lesson was: next time bring more friends to the party.   #48 This episode is the Assasination of Kim Ok-kyun & the Donghak Rebellion   Welcome to the Fall and Rise of China Podcast, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson.

If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel where I cover the history of China and Japan from the 19th century until the end of the Pacific War.   Now despite the Gapsin coup, Japan and China still tried to cooperate against the west. But Japan was learning much from the outside world, particularly by the actions of imperialistic nations. Britain had begun large scale operations in Shanghai, developing the international settlement there. King Leopold of belgium established the Congo Free state of 1862, and likewise France and Britain were also establishing colonies all over Africa. The Dutch held Java, but then they invaded Aceh in Sumatra in 1873 and other parts of Indonesia after that. The Russians were taking large swathes of land including Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, parts of the Sakhalin, even territory close to Korea in the region of Priamur. Once the ports of Wonsan and Inchon were opened up, Japanese manufactured goods began to pour in. By 1893 91 percent of imports into Korea would be from Japan while 8 percent would be from China. While China tried to keep Japan out, the Meiji restoration had created an industrial powerhouse that made goods, and China had not managed this herself. Of Korea, 49 percent went to China and 50 percent went to Japan. In the eyes of Koreans, even though she was not formally a colony of Japan, the way the Japanese were behaving looked imperialistic.  Now in 1886 the Beiyang Fleet was responsible for protecting China's northern coastline and she would make a fateful call to Nagasaki. The purpose of this call was to show off her 4 new modern battleships she had purchased from Germany, the Dingyuan, Zhenyuan, Jiyuan and Weiyuan. These ships were far larger than anything Japan had at the time, a large reason because Japan was following the Jeune Ecole naval strategy. This strategy was developed by France basically to combat the British royal navy. It emphasized using small rapid assault craft, cruisers and destroyers to thwart the might of capital ships like battleships. For my fellow world of warship players, the idea was simple, instead of slamming money into large battleships to fight other large battleships, the French began to experiment more with the capability of torpedo technology. With faster, smaller ships, the French thought they could be used more like raiders, to attack the enemy and cripple them. The Jeune ecole doctrine also sought to use strongly armed fast ships, thus its kind of a glass cannon situation. Anyways the implicit message from China was to show Japan how foolish they would be to go to war with her. On August 13th, 500 Chinese sailors took a shore leave in Nagasaki and they went to the local red-light district. As you can imagine, one thing led to another and some altercations began with the locals. The locals claimed the Chinese sailors got drunk and starting causing havoc, regardless the Chinese sailors began fighting some Japanese cops apparently using swords they bought at some stores. One source I found says over 80 people died during this which is pretty nuts. The next day a conference was held by the governor of Nagasaki, Kusaka Yoshio and the Qing consulate Xuan Cai which led to an agreement the Beiyang navy would prohibit their men from going ashore for a day. Then on August 15th at 1pm, 300 Chinese sailors went ashore, some wielding clubs apparently and they attacked 3 police officers killing one. A rickshaw saw the conflict and tried to punch a CHinese sailor, and this all snowballed into a riot. More cops showed up, more fighting, and this led to the deaths of 2 more cops, 3 sailors and more than 50 wounded. It was a real shit show, and the Qing decided not to apologize for the ordeal. In fact the Qing made demands to the Japanese government that from then on Japanese cops would not prohibit Chinese from wielding swords and forced the Japanese to make a large sum of reparation payments.  Now aside from the drunken debauchery, which in the grand scheme of things was not much of a deal, the real deal was the Japanese reaction to the Beiyang fleet. When the Japanese saw the Dingyuan, they basically went 100% in on the Jeune D'ecole doctrine to counter it. They IJN immediately decided to construct 3 large cruisers with firepower identical to the Dingyuan, basically this meant they were making battleship killers. While Japan was aggressively modernizing and pouring a ton of money into their navy by the late 1880s, in China the reconstruction of the summer palace was taking enormous sums of funding. The marble boat pavilion, as I mentioned, was taking funds intended for the Beiyang fleet thanks to empress dowager Cixi and thus no major investments would be made for the Qing navy in the last 1880's and early 1890s. To give more of an idea, 1/10th of the salaries of for civil officials and military officers in Japan was being deducted to add additional funding for the construction of naval ships and purchase of arms, Japan was not messing around. Now something that often goes more unnoticed is Japan's early efforts at gaining intelligence on China. Despite the Sino-Japanese relations falling apart because of the Korea situation, trade between China and Japan was growing in the 1880s. Japanese businessmen expected trade with China to only increase and in preparation for the expansion they began collecting information of Chinese market opportunities. But for those who know a bit about Meiji era Japan, the Zaibatsu driven system meant private business went hand in hand with the government of Japan and this led the Japanese government to ask the businessmen to look at other things in China. What sort of things, military installations, military dockyards, everything military. In 1879 Katsura Taro took a trip to China with 10 Japanese observers to survey Chinese military facilities. He would publish a book describing Chinese military bases, weapons and organization in 1881 and that book would be revised in 1882 and 1889. By the time of 1894, the Japanese military had access to detailed information about China's geography, her economy, her railways, roads, ports, installations, the whole shebang, thanks to Japanese journalists and businessmen. Of course amongst all of these were full blown Japanese spies, but for the most part China did not do enough due diligence to hide its military capabilities. Rather ironically, the Japanese businessmen who opposed military actions and just wanted to help develop China contributed a lot of information that would hurt China. On the other side of the coin, chinese reports about Japan were a complete 180. China's consul general in Nagasaki wrote reports on the ships coming and going within Nagasaki harbor. Alongside him, the Chinese ambassador to Tokyo, Li Shuchang who served from 1881-1884 and 1887-1890 sent some warnings about developments in Korea. Other than those two, Japan attracted virtually no interest from Beijing. Just before the war would break out in 1894, the Chinese ambassador to Tokyo Wang Fengcao, reported to Beijing that the Japanese were so obsessed with internal politics they were unlikely to be active externally. I think its interesting to point out, while Japan was indeed building up its IJA/IJN, she never stopped pointing that gun at Russia. China and Japan right up to the conflict we will be talking about had its tensions, its conflicts, its escalations, but they never gave up the chance at cooperation against the west. Take a legendary figure like Yamagata Aritomo, who led the development of the IJA and was the head of the Japanese privy council. In 1893 he publicly stated Japan should cooperate with China against their main enemies, Russia, France and Britain. Despite all the tensions in Korea, vast amounts of Japanese and Chinese scholars who studied the causes of the first sino-japanese war, came to agree it would not have occurred if not for two key events. The first one is a assassination and the second is a rebellion. In early 1894, Kim Ok-kyun was invited to visit Li Hongzhang in Shanghai. After living nearly a decade in fear of assassination, he accepted the invitation, perhaps believing this was his only chance to reclaim normality in his life. Well unbeknownst to him another Korean acquaintance of his named Hong Jong-u had actually gone to Japan in 1893 trying to hunt him down and he found out about the voyage. A source claims Hong Jong-u was working for King Gojong and went to Japan befriending him, while trying to lure him back over to Shanghai. Regardless Hong Jong-u got aboard and murdered Kim Ok-gyun by shooting him on March the 27th. Hong Jong-u was arrested by British authorities in Shanghai for his crime, but in accordance with their treaty obligations they surrendered the assassin over to Qing authorities for trial. The Qing instead freed him, whereupon he became quite the celebrity for his actions. Hong Jong-u would return to Korea and would be appointed to a high office position, giving credence to the theory he was working for King Gojong the entire time. When Kim Ok-kyun's body arrived to Korea it was shrouded in some cloth bearing the inscription “Ok-kyun, arch rebel and heretic”. On april 14th, King Gojong ordered the body decapitated, so the head could be displayed in Seoul while 8 other body parts would be sent to each of Korea's 8 provinces to be showcased likewise. His severed body parts were showcased in various cities in Korea to display what happens to those who commit treason. Kim Ok'kyun's father was hanged and his brother, wife and daughter were all imprisoned. Under Korean practice at this time it was common practice for the family of the guilty to be punished as well, that's some hardcore stuff there folks. The wife and daughter would become slaves to the governmental offices, a standard punishment for the female household members of rebels. It was during this time one of Kim Ok-kyun's traveling companions, a Chinese linguist for the legation in Tokyo claimed to reporters that Kim Ok-kyun had come to Shanghai by invitation from Lord Li Jingfang, the former minister at Tokyo and adopted son of Li Hongzhang.    The Japanese public was outraged. Japanese newspapers interpreted all of this to mean Viceroy Li Hongzhang had planned the whole thing. It was also alleged Li Hongzhang had sent a congratulatory telegram to the Korean government for the assassination. Many others pointed towards King Gojong since the assassin claimed to be under direct orders from the king. Kim Ok-kyun had been a guest in Japan and the Qing authorities had seemingly done nothing to protect him and made no attempt to bring the assassin to justice. The Qing had likewise handed over the corpse, knowing full well what the Koreans would do to it, as was their custom for treason. From the Japanese point of view, the Qing had gone out of their way to insult the Japanese in every possible manner. From the Chinese point of view, Kim Ok-kyun had committed high treason and deserved his fate.  Fukuzawa Yukichi led a funeral ceremony held in Tokyo at Aoyama Cemetery for Kim Ok-kyun. He had taught the man, and spoke in his honor reflecting Japan's respect for his efforts to modernize Korea. The Japanese press began to fill with public calls for a strong national response. The Chinese reaction during this time period reflected their deep-seated prejudices concerning the Japanese. Even with official communications, the Qing routinely referred to the Japanese as ‘Woren” which is a racist term meaning Japanese Dwarf basically. Wo is the word for dwarf, and the link to the Japanese was a racial term emerged during the times the Japanese were pirating the waters around China's coast, the “wokou”. By the way do not use this word today to refer to Japanese haha. During the upcoming war a Qing official expressed these types of racial attitudes, that this quote for example "It took them 48,000 years before they made contact with China, while in 3,600 years they still have not accepted our celestial calendar...illegitimately assuming the reign title of Meiji (Enlightened Rule), they in reality abandon themselves all the more to debauchery and indolence. Falsely calling their new administration a 'reformation' they only defile themselves so much the more." One Captain William M Lang, a British officer who helped train the Beiyang Squadron of the Qing fleet from 1881 to 1890 had noted this about the Chinese and Japanese. "treated Japan with the utmost contempt, and Japan, for her part, has the same feeling towards China." One German military advisor in China said “The Chinese looked upon Japan as a traitor towards Asia”. Thus before the war broke out, the Chinese for the most part considered the Japanese to be another inferior neighboring people, below the status of a tributary since Japan had severed that link to China. The more tense the situation got between the two nations saw the Chinese viewing the Japanese with more contempt. They would ridicule the Japanese for the communal bathing habits, the attire of their women and the way they imitated western culture. The Japanese as you might guess resented this a lot.  In 1891 Alexander III issued a special imperial rescript announcing Russia's intention to build a trans-siberian railway. From the Japanese point of view, this amounted to a foreign policy manifesto equivalent to the monroe doctrine of the united states. Just as America had kicked out all other powers from the Americas, so to it seemed Russia would do the same with the Asian mainland. For the great Meiji leadership of Japan, it looked like Russia would seize control over Korea and thwart Japan's dreams of empire and the ever coveted status of a great power that came with it. Once the trans-siberian railway was announced the Japanese knew they had roughly a decade to resolve the Korea situation before the balance of power would be irrevocably changed and the door would be shut upon them. Yet as bad as the situation was for Japan it was even worse for China. The trans-siberian railway would allow the Russians to deploy troops along the Chinese border in areas that would prove difficult for the Chinese to do the same as they did not have a major railway. On top of this Japan was pursuing an increasingly aggressive foreign policy focused on the Korean peninsula. Qing strategists had long considered Korea a essential buffer for their defenses. With the Russians pushing from the west and the Japanese from the east, Li Hongzhang was hard pressed to take a more aggressive stance in Korea. Now as I said, two major reasons were attributed to the outbreak of the first sino-japanese war, the first being the assassination of Kim Ok-kyun, the second is known as the Tonghak rebellion. I can't go to far into the rabbit hole, but the Tonghak movement began around 1860 as a sort of religion, emphasizing salvation and providing rituals to achieve this. It was much akin to the Taiping Rebellion, a sect that was deeply upset with a corrupt government. It was formed by a poor member of the Yangban class whose father had been a local village scholar and it was largely created to give hope to the poor class. It had some roman catholicism and western learning associated with it, again very much like the Taiping. The peasantry class of Korea found this sect very appealing and the Tonghak influence was particularly strong in Cholla province, the breadbasket of Korea. Members of the sect were angry that corrupt Joseon officials in Seoul were imposing high taxes on them. The leaders of the sect were all poor peasants who, because of their inability to pay their taxes, had either lost their land or were about to lose their land. Their leader was Choe Jeu who described the founding of the Tonghak religion as such  “By 1860, I heard rumours that the people of the West worship God, and caring not for wealth, conquer the world, building temples and spreading their faith. I was wondering whether I, too, could do such a thing. On an April day, my mind was unnerved and my body trembled... Suddenly a voice could be heard. I rose and asked who he was. "Do not fear nor be scared! The people of the world call me Hanulnim. How do you not know me?" Said Hanul. I asked the reason he had appeared to me. "...I made you in this world so that you could teach my holy word to the people. Do not doubt my word!" Hanulnim replied. "Do you seek to teach the people with Christianity?" I asked again. "No. I have a magical talisman... use this talisman and save the people from disease, and use this book to teach the people to venerate me!" The Joseon Dynasty quickly banned the religion and executed its leader in 1864 for “tricking and lying to the foolish people”.  Regardless the tonghak spread across Gyeongsang province by the 1870's under new leadership. However in the 1870's the rice agriculture in Korea had become increasingly commercialized as Japanese merchants bought more and more of it to ship back to Japan. Korea was not producing enough to meet the needs of its own population as a result. Japanese merchants would begin to lend money to local Korean peasants and when the peasants could not repay the funds, the rice merchants confiscated their land. This obviously was seen as dishonest and exploitative, as it was and the Tonghak gradually became very anti-Japanese. The Tonghaks performed a series of lesser rebellions against excessive taxation. There were revolts in 1885, 1888, 1889, 1890, 1891, 1892 and 1893. By the 1890's the Donhak's began a petition to overturn the 1863 execution of Choe Jeu, to stop the ban on them, to expel all western missionaries and merchants and to kill corrupt officials, a tall order. So yeah King Gojong did not want to give in to such reasonable petitions and told them “go to your home, If you do, I may grant your plea”. A lot of the Tonghak wanted to march on Seoul, and they began threatening westerners and Japanese. Soon a group of over 80,000 Donghak believers led by a southern leader named Jeon Bongjun began marching with flags stating “expel westerners and Japanese”. Now this is a really confusing a large scale event, one of if not the biggest rebellion in Korean history. One thing to focus on though is that a particularly oppressive county magistrate named Jo Byeonggap in Northern Cholla, seemed to have provided the “straw that broke the camel's back”. The magistrate had forced young men to work on a water reservoir and then charged them and their families for use of the water. He overly taxed, fined peasants for dubious crimes including infidelity, lack of harmony, adultery and needless talents, no idea how that last one works out. He also sent spoiled rice sacks to Seoul while keeping unspoiled sacks from himself. Basically this guy was an embezzling scumbag, by today's standards we would refer to him as a member of the US congress.  By march 22nd tens of thousands of Tonghak rebels destroyed the new reservoir, burnt down the governmental offices and some storage facilities in northern Cholla. They then occupied Taein by April 1st, and a few days later Buan. The local Joseon government sent commander Yi Yeonghyo with 700 soldiers and 600 merchants to quell the rebellion only to be lured into an ambush at the Hwangto pass. Many of the troops were killed, some deserted and the Tonghak rebellion spread further north. King Gojong panicked, because news spread the rebels were being joined not only by countryside peasants but by many of his soldiers! Worried that the Joseon military would not be able to quell the rebellion King Gojong called upon his Qing allies to send reinforcements.  Now there are two narratives that come into play. The first involved the Qing responding quickly, on June the 7th following the Tianjin treaty's requirements that if one country sent troops to Korea the other had to be notified, they informed Japan they were sending 2000 troops to Inchon. The Japanese leaders, having bitterly remembered what occurred the last time they sent a smaller force into Korea did not make the same mistake this time. Within just hours of receiving the notification they dispatched 8000 troops to Korea and notified China of this. The other narrative has it that on june 2nd the Japanese cabinet decided to deploy troops to Korea should China do so. On june the 3rd, King Gojong under advice of Empress Min and Yuan Shikai requested the Qing aid. In doing so he gave Japan the rationale to deploy their own troops. On June 5th the first Imperial headquarters was established and the next day the ministeries of the IJA and IJN instructed the Japanese press to not print any information concerning warlike operations. China notified Japan on june th of their deployments, and within hours the Japanese sent their notifications for the same. There is evidence many Japanese leaders accused China of not sending the notification thus breaching the treaty of Tianjin, but it seems highly likely they did send the notification. Regardless what is a fact is that Japan had already been pre planning its deployment during the end of May, thus it all seemed a likely rationale to start a conflict. This conflict would change the balance of power in asia, and begin a feud between two nations that still burns strongly to this very day.

Summary: Wrens are some of the most charismatic families of songbirds! Join Cheryl and Kiersten as they introduce you to some found in the Southwest.   For our hearing impaired listeners, a transcript of this podcast follows the show notes on Podbean.   Show Notes: www.allaboutbirds.org “Western Chatterboxes” by Ken Keffer, Birds and Blooms Magazine pg 26-32. Background bird song:  Naturescapes Backyard Birds www.naturescapes.com   Our email address, please reach out with comments, questions, or suggestions:  thefeathereddesert@gmail.com   Cheryl: Intro Wrens are small birds but what they do not have in size they make up for in personality, chatter, and curiosity.  Our Sonoran Desert has several wrens flit through our desert and urban landscapes. Kiersten:  Cactus Wren          The Cactus wren is a large, chunky wren with a long heavy bill, a long rounded tail, and short, rounded wings.  The Cactus wren is the largest wren in the U.S. It also has the distinction of being the state bird of Arizona.           This wren is a speckled brown bird with bright white eyebrows that extend from the bill across and above their red eyes to the sides of the neck.  They have pale cinnamon sides and a white chest with dark speckles.  The back is brown with heavy white streaks, and the tail is barred white and black.  Males and females look alike.           Unlike other wrens that typically hide in vegetation, the cactus wren seems to have no fear.  They perch a top cacti and other shrubs to announce their presence and forage out in the open.  These birds do not cock their tails over their back the way other wrens do.  Instead, Cactus wrens fan their tail feathers, flashing white tail tips.          Cactus wrens, as we have mentioned in previous podcasts, make more than one nest a year, its spherical, with males and females occupying different nests through out the year.  Cactus Wren is an insect eater.  When feeding its nestlings it will pull the wings of the grasshopper before it feeds it to its baby.  That's a lot of wings because one Cactus Wren nestling eats 14 grasshoppers a day.          Cactus Wrens live in desert, arid foothills, coastal sage scrub and urban areas of the southwest.  They especially love areas with thorny shrubs like the Cholla and Prickly pear. Cheryl: Rock Wren          Medium-sized wren with a long tail and thin bill.  Pale brown above and whitish below with slight buffy or peachy wash on the lower belly. Back and wings are finely speckled.  Underpants are finely streaked, but often look whitish.           The small industrious Rock Wren constantly hops around rocks, investigating crannies for insects and spiders, which they extract with their delicate bill.  This resourceful species thrives even in bleak desert settings occupied by few other birds.  The rock wren is not known to drink water but instead gets all it needs from its food.          Male Rock wren is a truly remarkable singer and can have a large song repertoire of 100 or more songs, many it has learned from its neighbors.          Rock Wrens are on of the few bird species that uses landscapes significantly altered by industry or tother human activity.  Nesting is road cuts, railroad tunnels, gravel pits, clearcuts, coalmine spoils, and refuse heaps. Kiersten: Canyon Wren          A tiny bird with a big voice, the Canyon Wren, sings a gorgeous series of sweet, cascading whistles that echo off the rocky walls of its canyon habitat.  Canyon Wrens are incredibly agile birds that hunt for insects mostly among rocks, scaling cliff faces and using their long slender bills to probe into crevices with surgical precision.          They are a warm cinnamon -brown with a salt and pepper pattern on their head, and neat white throat patch.  The vertebral column of the Canyon Wren is attached higher on the skull than it is on most birds.  This modification, along with a slightly flattened skull, allows a Canyon Wren to probe for food in tight crevices without bumping its head.  Canyon Wrens sometimes steal insects trapped in spiderwebs or stowed in wasp nests. Cheryl: Bewick's Wren-pronounced Bu-ick's          The Bewick's Wren is a medium-size brown wren with a long tail that is often held up.  The bill is long and slightly curved.  Note the white eyebrows and dark barring on the tail.  These are boisterous and curious birds.  Their plumage varies regionally from rusty-brown in humid areas to grayish- brown in drier regions.          Bewick's Wrens are noisy, hyperactive little birds.  They are master vocalists that belt out a string of short whistles, warblers, burrs, and trills to attract mates and defend their territory, or scold visitors with raspy calls.   A young male Bewick's wren learns to sing from neighboring adult males while he is coming of age in his parents territory.  The songs he develops differ from his father's, with a note changed here or a syllable there.  The melodious signature he acquires between the ages of about 30 and 60 days will be his for life. These wrens are common in much of the western North America.  Bewick's wrens eat insects, but will eat fruits, seeds and other plant matter especially in winter.  Bewick's wrens build their nests in cavities or on ledges about 30 ft off the ground. Kiersten:  House Wrens          The house wren is a small, nondescript brown bird with a short tail, thin bill and dark barring on wings and tail with a paler throat.  House wrens have a effervescent voice and is a common visitor to backyards.  Spending its time zipping through shrubs and low tree branches snatching at insects.   Because they are cavity nesters, house wrens thrive around buildings, yards, farms, and other human habitations with their many nooks and crannies.          House wrens eat a variety of insects and spiders, including beetles, caterpillars, earwigs and daddy long legs, also small snails for the grit to aid in digestion and calcium.           The house wren has on of the largest ranges of any song bird in  North or South America because it breeds from Canada through the west indies and Central America, southward to the southern most point of South America.  Generally, Bewick's wrens and House wrens will not nest in the same areas.  So you can imagine the pressure the Bewick's wren is under with the success of the House wren. Cheryl: Closing These amazing small birds are full of personality and big voices so it is a joy to spend time with them here in the Phoenix Valley where it is  home to a variety of these wrens.

of of the Hassi history that earthquake hit thing that literally no one asked him well now the people are snow about him to come back not swimming in money you can play with you all this like crows you're right now that you think about it I was like Oh my God they literally just switch animal it made it to they did you know except for the title cat woman I mean there's no proof even that Halle Berry Linney Travis not that out of the park and hunger game and all right but then again the bear Moore's aren't that now just very scripted instead on your stop lease I could see I don't like to the script the cat woman was even in the DC version is all they did all they do is I took the script from the crow and put in a cat ed I remember I remember the trailer for cattleman start off saying like when you die spirits carry to the under all by a cat yeah I love across by the way I knew I mean the only movie ever the book is I never say the book better always in the movies better this one time where it will say absolutely the comic book is better than it did level legacy of Halle Haley well you know you know hopefully the legend okay jail it's all right he'll hopefully you got a nickel off of that yet I I still like the movie but man this is such a better story that's granted the comic book is probably less than than the movie which is kind of of course good it's GonNa be alright well she wasn't a cow he had a whole different name funding take me they made a tape they made four movies four movies not one that you know and he always as soon as someone asks that I liked about the book was the book teases the idea that the whole story could be Detroit so anymore it's over but I'm Living Zoe Kravitz cattleman hitched that because he kind of looks like Sir you really really defined the role and I loved how to be fair I mean I actually did see the movie I I did love the movie and I went and I found the book and it was just like Oh my God in fact because it was so good even after having very they say you know what if we get another another asking American lady that would be really awesome and now did you hear element it's wonderful I really complete opposite I usually the comics or the bulk is better than the movie and it's just like I think for the crow on the opposite I like the movie better it's like if you just if you just watch the movie and like during the comic like you don't even know the name of the main bad guy unless you look in the end credits yeah guys are always offensive out there I mean those are like ten dollars a Taylor is going to a rave right now a revenge fantasy that aired driven is heavy or just Eric didn't have named books having as dying name Okay Sleep Apnea Harley yeah both I might mean meeting Tom on Sunday oh cool we are how how things are not cinema go you know it's it's a much more personal story it's kind of it's the kind of story that was Martin Scorsese would make interest what do you think it is just that under five hundred that is looking at camera who is that is that Tom Welling Tyler Patrick you know on the phone yet making a comic book movie scene it's GonNa go anywhere he will you that's the thing is Martin Scorsese will make a comment the earth too yeah because blacks are hiring yeah but okay so they mixing before that Robert Queen was the man the man is that always the way the man gone down that's right man keeps you down fill man keeps whatever you kind of discovered I you know what I mean is one of those things and I I was more familiar with the prominent grew okay so a crisis and insurance so they killed Batman or something about how the cactus secular we already had a damn besser crazy in the crow movies I'd have but it's like they're really like no one calls them and they don't call them by name he doesn't call himself by name it's just like than the movie I mean the movie is is good but it's a completely different story than the comment is such a deep personal story the hood wheelers of earth too and there's no dialogue about him dying or returning her any at some point but he was still thought the hood I didn't know if he got it well yeah maybe Adrian Shaved Porn Roy any Portland neighborhood say oh well yeah but it is weird that like Oliver's didn't say anything about Robert or anything wing plan so in my store like I guess these are like magazine cover like magazine bags or something Oh okay so you got bags the God loves man kills will graphic now but he's bigger than the other ones too though too so that was the one thing that kind of threw me about and then they didn't even touch on like so Harry Jesse quick now dead too they me I'm wondering if he just came back for incident crisis and then he's gone after crisis go controversial opinions Oh here in the end yeah so I'm talking about that unexcited the dance well we get any owner forget any China you know something I thought it'd be neat like no we don't have I'm actually interested in meeting sue and Ralph you give them an VW Moseley because he mentioned I happen to he mentioned sue and happened to go and find her and I would rather do that storyline for you know Kinda get so I have a question for Lois and Phil Okay so was that I don't know I miss something on Arrow was that I think it's about time my dad loves man kills here but I think it's about the same size I think they said this is like wider than in the graphic novels that's what we used to call them back in the graphic novels it will big plus the whole thing so I did notice that the joker highly that I got was kind of a different side they do with with Brennan leaving Superman their minds I don't know I'd so you're right it is the canaries because you need a black Canary Yellow Canary Siren series well female green and yet flat flash forwards on the show it's going to be him and felicity daughter yeah the backing of like if you hadn't read the company didn't really know the history I can give you say that Oh boy no I think he's going to be recurring every so often this then they may be a whole in series he has no room I saw that are they like stuffing in suit aw thank you Louis thank you because that was what I said when they announced that way healthy and so I get okay some of that I just want to focus on the flash housing would on trump did they didn't they announce that they're doing Arrow Yeah Tony Artisan earthlings his when Superman can travel in the past boop might drop visioned bear God on the flash CISCO IS IN COSTUME YEAH still salary that he did that I think it was

always up for debate does right there l. 00:20:50 - 00:23:30 and the Red Sun ways communist Rochester yes it's interesting I read the book I don't remember I know spider man and Venom Liliane superconductivity later yeah forgiving agree the Marvel Universe reliable married award well if he he messaged me and shot that he's like Oh my lord you know because placticisers talking to frankly

good take a hey that everyone see naomie Harris Gut cast for Venom to nothing at all this is a world of capes in lunatics and nothing is off limits series is like a mature mature whatever well now they're now now they've already said okay now just a ninety six page one shot Kinda sorta what's your face comes back I mean the combat Michelle was coming down superconductivity orgy he might be on a lot to talk about the marriage maybe greater than Galactic I craft she's not coming back okay well they can do that but they were getting shrieked I don't care about well triggers shrike in his arms as well as I wasn't good aren't over medical term actually I oh but I remember I was telling you about their their Jane where they're launching birds of prey on Rica okay what do you think what is going to be excited but do you think Los Shriek Lady bummer maybe maybe the name of the show he was not Mormon sign I'm wondering Shriek has yet sonic powers yeah that's kind of a I don't know it was passed it's like birds in the fate don't eat how the Clinton everybody got heard book while naked or play online to somehow we can make it work anywhere on the big Christmas it was I love potatoes so when I saw that it was like potato games they yes this is for knee pick the right one so yes big potato B for target they're not sponsors we will take your money to you like the man who just send us more game especially that target actually reminds me not to say mark waits on a fantasy girl orders is pay he mentioned the important stuff like this askelon anyway buying Leeman yeah I think it's just telling the kids stories but we're GonNa get the whole discussion there targeted ads channel. 00:23:30 - 00:38:19 Leon Yeah we check out twenty has such a great gain are now once you go to buy that game said love that game to your local target into a mini series they were just like ongoing one shot nobody cares played out I don't think that they under Dan the cycle is other things finding their burn heraldic they burn deadpool out you know when they had to like they put her in everything hang out and then then Margot Robbie well I think diplomas we've only got a little bit over yeah if we would they would use issues you know I like to get you issues and then I can make an honest decision about the fullest but it's live action in the head to pay for it someone's getting naked role overnight for the next the premiere episode of Star Girl and didn't let on CW special event and then it was like for the rest of the series check out the petition do on he'd have you actually they almost only last like my my or jokes constantly thank you thank you yeah I mean I like the older the hard series did they are they still pretty that is men beyond beyond Harlequin both both among recall any hardware that show me your Harley I hope that star girl is more in a family ask nist though would like to watch it with my kids you know like the issue and I would grab it so I got two issues which I really love but you know very read that I like to put a book on the Pulis before thing and bring her back to form yeah give us an Eerie Harley Quinn nine she's out super no I have no idea what was my full lift so it was always just oh it's a new so you think you think you think they'd be dropping commercials every every commercial break for DC is that they take yeah but we're putting yeah but we're going to pay money for Disney plus and they're not going to be giving us that are they I want Old Lady Hurry I go GimMe Gimme party inside show me your book Old Lady Harley or do you mean the one from everything else is on DC universe words doomed already patrol or you know tightened were they don't tell the little questionable that'll have like a little kid around you know and quality content graphics you'll get yet well look for when it will mm-hmm did you guys hear about star girl she's got to be on the CW it Kinda makes sense if we're going to be like kind of touching into that small bill for Disney they've got the prestige label to to make the demands I think it's like if you're in yeah you know what I have I don't know that that's necessarily the case but more to the point they're gonna be giving us some good content give us under alimentary here's a sailor watch more episode with me but she did she was excited to see Robin so here's the rule if it's exactly friendly over at Tcu sure but that's how Tom Hardly animated that's definitely kid friendly something yeah language other sectors violence it's never salty later pay if you're paying pride in South Jersey man you can go down to Cape May it's almost tropical it's very nice almost tropical hello we're on our house April you don't see every five minutes you gotta find the next but I don't think we thought well that's not true all right I'm back next time Tom I will I will all right yeah let's talk some the harake lights are for what it's worth for what it's worth yeah I mean any it would it be nice if they did Komo deadpool one this'll be pg the worst and ever it's not GonNa be on DC universe moon at the bank just like I thought they'd never moved Willet I've been talking about war Ville the last four books yes this issue or the CDs you know humans are you know we have not come reply rope the IRA yeah but we let certain things we're GonNa pay our money NBC or how about what he calls his Co worker in the apartment now kind of desensitized and so ours union people who have found joy in the word of Avis and are trying to get back to crawl space I love a racist worshiped worship is the world the word of Avis is the head of the series for those who remember from last month there is a group of Eh really I mean the pluses like we'll give you like it shall never know bitcoin lay on the beach and the garbage global warming nowadays we barely get snow North Jersey anymore I got a piece spoiler venire gets shot in the head so and they did linger on it in kind of a grotesque way so that went on they were talking about they were talking about justice society on their Jay Garrick so it makes I mean where do you have a guarantee of what will be interesting they did something they did the pilot about it yeah well you know zoom patrol not watch with the kids swamp thing I'm not watching the kids Titans Titans are in the Solomon Oh car agency so awesome they may view on the show well yeah no they make the joke they they make very racist jokes he's like you gotTa Get Outta Love Florida as you all know the difference yeah go to Jersey let's just it'll be the same just colder Bob Bob is anywhere in the world guy you know it's a single vowel too hard consonants on either end and oh but of course we go there God's name's Bob what a stupid name for God God not like Jehovah That's a God thing able to pronounce it worked at Virginia now it should be something we can pronounce it should be very hard to pronounce it should be something yeah I mean I was born though maybe a little bit violent is that like I I don't see how you're like an art in the golden bears get your mouth overlords all you want from what its word how y'all know the rule no princess we have we have a South Jersey too titan fighting okay someone's getting no well spent language then maybe worse than anyone you're a bad parent like me your kids love that so yeah you put your on the job under some some some some of these species may have more vocal cords than we do but then it'd be but it's still going to be how we hear the word you know the joke is really anew that you are just sitting there looking at some stupid context of the joke they do as you would like to book stories why can't you pay attention like Charlie asks does ever be I don't know and this is oh look at this that makes you look stupid this is Charlie this is a series being written by humans so it's like you could name the race and again an actual you can write it anything term for Bob for God in in in a lot of fantasy novels and you know that you know at some point they call God it it just it's AC- race so you can make fun of them has oh hey that word sounds like a word that we have in our in our in our context yes when you're looking for that purpose in a religious ideology how first off some people can exploit that and people when I'm sorry daddy don't beat anymore la it's good because it does come down to this idea of why insane okay if you make this so it's like you know if you fight and so as an example you know you have you have Bob as us you know it's like no it's Avis you know but we can't hear that so you know we're the idiots that's the point in a language you don't even speak to make it there you go it's an alien greg which we shouldn't even be able to pronounce the name of their God or why shouldn't you be her out of the aggie w our who's making that no lives that's their course Zimmer was last time this hi pal it's Kinda thing Phil it's like there's only so many waged Combined sounds to make words some of them are going to sound Gordon Avis why is Jehovah that hard for you know but I mean how can you pronounce another language completely different lately they can produce significant four continents outside of our vocal range that is part of the name of Avis that we can't even here okay thank and why should that make you want to do evil if you do evil in the name of something good than it couldn't have been that good to start with so oh comedy Oh town but is it though style but it's still earth it's not a completely different planet in a different you know well yeah but how many bowel sounds do you think there are really the ads for books coming up from a dark horse you've got Count Crowley which is like really great and so now any kind of lives up to the height that's auto four part two of to the word of eight so they doing more ed to review on this but somebody you sure you didn't do it on your pants we might have talked about it at least one or two on superconductivity take it too far and other people can say you know if it is if it's if your faith is true if this really does give you purpose why should you care what other people it's really good as always like I say it's you know norval is a good movie TV series I can't see it on okay little from any book throughout I had no idea what the book is about but it's called strayed adding it's like some kind of cosmic cat and the Wacky nece that it indigenous the President Superman okay else I'm just saying nothing can be wiling other language violence and sex or like a daily thing while even on just on the news the kids are taking mischievous I tried to do it even if it's like this mobile it did fine okay did you read tales of the dark from the door multi verse Batman in a day you know where Bain Breaks Batmans back like you read that original might fall unlike Azriel was never that deep of thinker he wasn't a big planner he was basis krone which looks cool but it's like the third in a series I'm not sure I'm GonNa pick it up and just in this one actually this one of my favorites is okay why she doesn't like working memory I got union I got tonight I don't think it's growing and evolving time I guess okay lecturing about yes I in the Orville yeah haven't orb atomic so yeah some women these relive all the editor course you know it's like we're Batman didn't come back after nightfall you know as real took over Gotham and then it's like thirty years later in like here's like this whole system set up with lieutenant we see universe or something Kinda Cross promote because I'm hoping star girl commercial the books is reverse flash but he's the black flash in the TV show I don't need like the dark multi-diverse yeah did you read that one yeah it's weird I don't like it the album universe somehow or without paying off the money that goes with it but I mean I just love at the end of this I mean we see that wall these kids auto to worry about that here is in crisis yeah I never about but no nightfall I mean it was decent but it's like so do you think that's wanted to maybe joked about because they did name Avis I mean they could name it anything so put on them yes there's a comic book of Orrville UN low of none of your book. 00:42:33 - 00:47:01 I did not I think as you might pick it up it's theory on is very much in the vein the trash is just a one shot now the reason the dot the dot multi verse I'm just like Yeah Yeah Okay Anyway let's see one mix well if they are always they always have at least two then running concurrently everyone marvel DC Medellin's original I'm surprised no middleman haven't haven't gotten the DC universe series yet Outlook yeah but but that's the whole problem like read-end ritual nightfall because they've been reprinted Batman for four ninety seven as like a dollar specialist we and patients needs love sets so want centers all men originally showed up in the books when wally was still the flash so on that or a miges too I some other here's came from another earth they were supposed to be more here's yeah they're like after the success of doom patrol at I gotta say that wow you know I think that's like the next logical step for them you know they might also of late night laughs I'm good I'm good walt rush forward to is kind of tied into that has like while traveling you know with the with the Hukou clarity of the crystal gems kind of like this idea of show you know you can do a story where we're making up what the qualities of metal art and then something like a really good young thunderball commerce Threaten it Dan also you know characters that embody it so you know I'm just saying this is Italian they're definitely agree like a lot in the thousands can stop basically running off them instead of Batman and just like if you read the original nightfall like Azra wasn't her systems a little better a high voltage board of of of Omni corpse yeah what else is kind of alive I know now I love that it's wally but it's I don't know I guess I can make it up to the wally fans for what they did have like a last ditch us it has a has a very fundable feels that she might have picked it up so this is the middlemen in the dark universe or multi verse Oh yeah very much so we I was on Amazon videos won't be able to pick it up insteps even those Dan he actually did a really good job I really enjoy the art bashing interesting story but I I don't I really enjoyed it but it also has to do with dark multi verse two titles can never nothing Amazon is giving their money from me I don't see why they're gonNa make it hard for me to use their products up maybe because we got the first one was going to chat and then it's like oh there's another one won't cool also I really want to give a quick shout out to all of the amazing thank you might have been like Halo fucking interesting Luke Warm Oh yeah but she got me interested not any of the unit NBC. 00:47:01 - 00:48:00 At Very I can't think of one thing I'll show law and order Svu that's the only thing that I said I will ah these these punts now they get cartoons every day oh voted just the ball feel and we do have you did it that system in his head so maybe that I will always be the master they're always they famed their own death during the boom work and they are high rand I do miss that my childhood was the best everybody else can go home cry ashes behind the black because he got greedy in the comrex tournament tournament for the Brash but he was zoom he was wearing a black cost number one. 00:48:00 - 00:47:27 Let's let's discuss okay what the freaking happen so cyclops has you will everything dark universe that you know you've heard of multi verse make up your mind DC it's it live that's it that's our loved grouch delay the growed are you didn't see the growth I was gonna say the only know NBC is law and Order Svu and like you know Saturday night if you've got nothing else they will turn on Saturdays it's kind of like having a rule comcast I mean it's probably not now but you know enough money need help I can get it on there for you can you know I know there's something I watch NBC but I couldn't tell you what it is I think that's the only thing anybody that I know what wrestling's on NBC. 00:47:27 - 00:52:15 I mean the affiliate universal the world doesn't revolve around you love Oh it'd be wrong old white men in Shirley has one a- and Wolverine is living with with Scott Gene Bronco Thirty Oh yeah okay yeah I those fantastic cyclops and like like the the summers family has like a House on the moon by right by the Blue Area the moon o'clock Wolverines Batman and Robin but rolling cyclops I would ship it more than I should will R- energy oh good to know good to know because I'm like I can break yeah wins that these are Disney plus will not be on Amazon fire is that true the cartoon like Cortina might be easier than Lebron yeah yeah yeah but they just seem like the at and T. Warner Brothers Ron with you ehlo Time Warner not a thing if gone doc wallet voices Mac GonNa Be Permanent Good -re definitely if Charlie just knock himself off or talking about excellence down the button this video make friends you know so if I saw the money goes I got I don't know what shall I even watch on the I like my hobby I just don't hardly plant I don't think that maybe it's less that hardly quit his ooh that is the best at what he does what I do when I do Hello we all do I know it's like kind of the point of it being a problem where it doesn't matter who the red headed would it be added I've never gotten attention that they show like I don't get it have tension with professor x even though as grows increasing has a thing for redheads at the time they got around the berry they're just they had the wall they play the whole thing in the season to the flash at first they made you think he was gay garrick and then he turned on his mind AWW EXCI- it'll be you know and you couldn't get sci-fi for a couple of weeks and then I got size you know anthro that thunderheads and power rangers and all that stuff have a great resurgence in that the cycle of Sidecar News Bert multi rather but it's Kinda is the way they made it visited no he got the replace them with asking me about why Hunter Solomon as you can finish is the all the all the short homicidal all of Anti Heroes have things were redheads Wolverine Wealth you're well it says so bad it's it's not a pump ever think for a red it's like if a red wig on a map the older dude doug any with actual source ruining by Jennings in your magic Oh yes jennings now Bob Jennings isle to see more of that's eight that that's true yes weird because guessing obviously Jean Grey is using her intense mental powers to manipulate everyone melanie but when you start like a like make you do things I can convince you that that was your ibn the whole time that when he Berlin three exit attack no I'm just saying is play I'm Bob Jennings because he's brilliant doug you see if you're an old man like me you know who got done any as you know it is this what you're saying because mind control is a super villain our Phoenix airport is in he like he had he had a whole disciplinary hearing about the whole thing was still alive so bright La control them on just reading minds it's invasive and it's creepy but it's not really super the thing is Dr Strain here but I mean the other you know and let's not forget senior Magic Oh Korea thorough series right now like partly they're like power man and Iron Fist Jessica Jones Moonlight shut while midnight show up next issue in here weans the weekly Halloween story things making good admitted good observation about the guys who are like you know I guess in this violates every previous candidate of Nikolas that all the X. 00:52:15 - 00:51:36 men are just crazy nut butters now it's just like a excuse to do you can come back well I think that's the thing it's like a whole cloning process he now it's like they're not right or whatever now I mean it's like they said all right so we'll if you're current on X. 00:51:36 - 01:04:25 Men Charlie read some house acts and powers of x get where the you have to figure this out like why but like their personal space but then like wolverines living with them doing genetic Mike Chicks these Georgia or your local meetings are looking for that you know that poor stormtrooper take in contagion we'll even though they're all acting weird all of a sudden containing which is also a great way like the way they're going about it is okay we're here we're here like it or not you know get get the out of our way if you don't like it you know here we come trying to go but are you talking about like I don't like is anyone picking up like villain Bob some or all these X. men everybody yes the character driven story instead of a punch Mer in twenty eight but but again and again the premises sound it's like you know trying to you know establish themselves as this power and it's like there's a way to do it but it just seems I'm channel incorporating my book who wasn't Creek Coa actually villain like in the original the this particular book that he more character driven than it's like well if you focus on gene sure but staten will reader just like I might have no personality Geico specific that's happening right now and I don't think that Hickman had the actual firm grasp of it kind of one of those it didn't understand yeah where they threw out some exactly what you always say about the mind control and yeah I think they were can you actually writing just wanted to love them he was ever get the name but it was so what it's one thing to be it's not it's okay to be lonely and the human contact it's not okay to demand Smith show up I think well if you remember thought they threw out a line in neither house of extra powers of x was like oh we thought it was evil but it's Oh this is a a search I remember I think the whole go to Cholla because there's a problem you know that's the only difference ourselves on so impede alcohol I'm thinking Hellfire become the marrying type all too human contact no matter how lonely you are hardly seen Harvey I mean one man's terrorist is another Nancy yeah yeah what it's all about control again the loop our Ooh out because you really you know here's the thing lovely was if you have the power to control people's minds that you say that 'cause I'm like yeah I didn't want to let you go if he poops cocaine does that mean in love it isn't even really a relationship or is that a quid pro quo or is that it depends all humanity basically though the human beings close wrong Nelson relationships I enjoy the myself but the fact that America's is that you know when you they clearly you built wrong wrong no you bet is not a hard barter it really interesting situation you find yourself our face will help are basically the best relationships with the ones you sound horrible everybody's saying a lot of things about absolute conscious number four building picking picking up they pay what is and where you actually don't see a opted for yourself we see positive for the got it I guess you know he'll Batman just be like the psychopathic kick your ass now camera office sort of okay well he's not here did you read US Superman Year one number three oh you've just been worn down and you don't realize that's just my take on marriage don't listen to me I emailed her because just like she suspected there they pushed that back again another week that number one I mean she's a lady so yeah more her I think she was she even said let's talk to her she's like she like I think they supposedly there's talk that they might push it back so look at look at what it doesn't interest word maybe that's it because I was like the first who seem kinda slow than this one seems like it rushed yeah and style when you think of that it was able but then then we saw the light but with each other yeah you can have something even beyond that so something I found funny this week is that I heard back make him a good man must be done with it why I covered I just wanted to I just wonder if they're gonNA try to redeem her seven V one woman seven fifty I did it was super rush it was way too much of the INFO dot in everybody hated eh the peace because it's you know the first half fours you know what will be fans out there oh you know what actually did pick up absolute carnage dead poor number three so if you WanNa Talk Down Wade's world tomorrow awards and is it was it just me like I couldn't get through this whole thing in one reading either put it down like at least twice and then pick it back up later getting up stay for the WHO Played Him Michael Shoe the guy was reports was the tentacles it was like no it's not oh the style jets just like they've been with the my goodwill or wonder woman showed up are we doing Batman v Superman now I thought I was I'm not I'm not faulting players philosophy I'm just saying you know now that there are other kinds of relations whatever it's boring is how it's Thursday and I don't care about thirsty I've been reading the regular wonder woman series but the anoc that it Miller right superman needs to be fired in not in the I know and not in a smart way just like I'm GonNa Punch Superman is like okay Batman he's trying to download it on his computer twenty eight Gig memory card and that's what we're downloading it onto we can't say did you see Loath Hellfire supposedly we are supposed to talk to Kelly Thompson but thanks guys guys guys walk not to be judgmental on your optimism it wasn't something that feels boring I'm just like I don't know if I'm enjoying this wonderful the whole thing with along with my disposal income will get right on that Russian who Latvia for Chief Wrigley Wonder Woman Book Okay G Willow Wilson Draining it's okay like I think you've got a little better but I don't care my wonder woman anymore which is a shame because she's the best we're gonNA look after the eighties Frank Miller's evolving grow right it's eighty twenty nineteen aspect a little bit if he jumps off camera can you hear me white man's Glenn he jumps off probably hoping to give it another miniseries on it or something but the fight another really having her but again there I whether like cashing in I mean I wonder woman the unseen cotton it seemed like the rush part and then it's like we don't get back the lax I mean I know they're probably setting the groundwork you know this is the Dark Knight Returns Universe and the these coming up on that guy speaking of that the witching cows or whatever that story arc is terrible it has gone on way too long a really only the third part of it you know Charlie likes stuff but I swear marble DC it's like a spider man Batman World Right now I want other spin off well again I think we
