Trans stories are not confined to political rhetoric and headlines. The world of creative writing is replete with narratives that explore complex worlds of gender and how identity intersects with people's lives and relationships. In a new collection of one novel and three stories, bestselling author Torrey Peters's keen eye for the rough edges of community and desire push the limits of trans writing.  In Stag Dance, the titular novel, a group of lumberjacks working in an illegal winter logging outfit plan a dance that some of them will attend as women. When the most unlikely of the axmen announces his intention to dance as a woman, he finds himself caught in a strange rivalry, inviting a cascade of obsession, jealousy, and betrayal that culminates on the big night in an exploration of gender and transition. A trio of shorter tales surround Stag Dance: “Infect Your Friends and Loved Ones” imagines a gender apocalypse brought about by an unstable ex-girlfriend. “The Chaser” presents a secret romance between roommates at a Quaker boarding school, and “The Masker” details a Vegas party weekend that turns dark when a young crossdresser must choose between two guides: a mystery man who thrills but objectifies her, or a veteran trans woman who offers sisterhood and cynicism. Peters' talk and work is especially timely surrounding ongoing conversations about trans rights in our nation but is an invitation to any fiction reader. Torrey Peters is the bestselling author of the novel Detransition, Baby, which won the PEN/Hemingway Award for Debut Novel and was named one of the 100 Best Books of the 21st Century by The New York Times. It was also a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle's John Leonard Prize, a finalist for the Brooklyn Public Library Book Prize, and longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction. She has an MFA from the University of Iowa and an MA in comparative literature from Dartmouth. Peters rides a pink motorcycle and splits her time between Brooklyn and an off-grid cabin in Vermont. Aster Olsen is the author of the novella Performance Review. She lived most of her life in the gorgeous swampy parts of Florida people don't visit on vacation, but now lives in Seattle, where she spends her time swimming in alpine lakes alongside aquatic insect larvae. A professional scientist, she rejects the binary oppositional positioning of STEM and Art and seeks to collapse and expand imposed categories and narratives to further understanding. Her writing is found in Lilac Peril, Hey Alma, Autostraddle, Inner Worlds, Itch.io, and elsewhere. She is the creator, editor, and publisher of TRANSplants Zine, a zine series about transness and place, and runs the trans open mic reading and art series please (t)read with me.  Find more at asterolsen.com.

In hierdie besonderse episode van Klipkouers Bosoorlog Stories het ek, Jacques Basson, die voorreg om met generaal-majoor Gert Opperman te gesels, 'n merkwaardige militêre leier met 'n indrukwekkende loopbaan van 33 jaar in die weermag. Bekend as die man wat die Voortrekker Monument gered het, deel Generaal Opperman sy ryk ervarings en insigte oor sy militêre loopbaan, sy tyd as hoof van die monument en die erfenisstigting, asook die aangrypende verhaal van hoe hy die oorskot van soldate uit Angola teruggebring het. Vroeë Jare en Militêre Loopbaan Gebore en grootgeword in Johannesburg, hoofsaaklik in Fairland, het generaal Opperman sy skoolopleiding by Hoërskool Linden voltooi voordat hy in 1963 by die weermag aangesluit het. Hy deel sy inspirerende reis van 'n jong seun wat aanvanklik 'n vegvlieënier wou word tot 'n gerespekteerde generaal, en beklemtoon dat sy sukses gebou is op harde werk, deeglike opleiding en wat hy noem "genade bo verdienste." Die Ontwikkeling van die Suid-Afrikaanse Weermag Generaal Opperman bied 'n fassinerende blik op die transformasie van die Suid-Afrikaanse weermag, van 'n instelling met sterk Britse invloed tot 'n meer eiesoortige Suid-Afrikaanse identiteit. Hy bespreek hoe politieke veranderinge, toenemende bedreigings en nuwe uitdagings gelei het tot die instelling van nasionale diensplig, die ontwikkeling van plaaslike militêre doktrine en die uitbouing van die krygstuigbedryf. Die impak van operasies soos Operasie Savanna word ook bespreek, asook die waardevolle lesse wat hierdeur geleer is. Leierskap en Opleiding Met diepgaande insigte in militêre leierskap, beklemtoon generaal Opperman die noodsaaklike eienskappe van 'n effektiewe leier: kennis van jou oorsprong en bestemming, die bereidwilligheid om voor te loop en risiko's te neem, en 'n sterk mensgeoriënteerde benadering. Hy bespreek die waarde van die weermag se opleidingstelsel, nie net vir oorlogvoering nie, maar ook vir die ontwikkeling van leiers wat later sleutelposisies in verskillende sektore van die samelewing beklee het. Die Voortrekker Monument en Erfenisstigting Een van die mees fassinerende dele van die onderhoud handel oor generaal Opperman se betrokkenheid by die redding van die Voortrekker Monument. Hy vertel hoe hy onverwags die pos as uitvoerende hoof aanvaar het en die uitdagings om die monument te transformeer van 'n "morsdood" instelling met sterk apartheidsassosiasies tot 'n relevante erfenissentrum vir alle Suid-Afrikaners. Die stigting van die Erfenisstigting om ander bedreigde Afrikaner-erfenisplekke te bewaar, word ook bespreek, asook die suksesvolle destigmatisering van die monument wat gelei het tot ondersteuning van die Lottofonds en die regering. Die Terugbring van Soldate uit Angola Generaal Opperman deel die aangrypende verhaal van die Ebo-trust en die komplekse proses om die oorskot van Suid-Afrikaanse soldate uit Angola terug te bring. Hierdie emosionele reis van frustrasies en deursettingsvermoë het uiteindelik gelei tot die terugbring van die oorskot van drie van die vier soldate, wat nou in die muur van herinnering by die Voortrekker Monument rus. Hy beklemtoon die belangrikheid van afsluiting vir die families van diegene wat in die buiteland gesterf het. Advies vir die Jonger Generasie Met wysheid gebore uit 'n leeftyd van ervarings, bied generaal Opperman waardevolle raad aan die jonger generasie: wees bewus van jou omstandighede, moenie vashaak in die verlede nie, soek geleenthede (selfs oorsee), en wees proaktief. Hy beklemtoon die belangrikheid van 'n sterk kulturele, geloofs- en opleidingsagtergrond, asook die vermoë om dinge gedoen te kry. Sy Boek en Nalatenskap Die onderhoud sluit af met 'n bespreking van generaal Opperman se boek, wat sy lewensreis chronologies volg en perspektief bied op die gebeure van sy tyd. Sy doelwit was om sy ervarings eerlik te deel, sonder selfverheerliking, en om die jonger generasie insig te gee in die uitdagings en oorwinnings van 'n belangrike era in Suid-Afrika se geskiedenis.

Tyler Perry's The Six Triple Eight: A Long-Overdue Tribute to WW2's Unsung Heroines To close out the year, we were treated to something special: Tyler Perry's latest film, The Six Triple Eight, starring Kerry Washington. This powerful story highlights the incredible, unsung heroes of American history—a battalion of African-American women tasked with delivering backlogged mail to troops during World War II.This week on Ubiquitous Blacks, TeaRon is joined by returning guest Leo Ra'chel, a fellow podcaster and entrepreneur, for a deep dive into Perry's ambitious period piece, which he reportedly scripted in just two weeks. Together, they explore whether The Six Triple Eight successfully captures the grit, determination, and complexity of these remarkable women, or if Perry might have taken on more than he can handle with such a layered historical narrative.–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––Follow Our Guest: Instagram: @thephatgirlchroniclesFacebook: facebook.com/thephatgirlchroniclesYouTube: youtube.com/@ThePhatGirlChronicles–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––About UBIQUITOUS BLACKS REVIEWS:'Ubiquitous Blacks Reviews' is an extension of the Ubiquitous Blacks Podcast where TeaRon (IG: @tearonworld) reviews the latest in Black Movies, TV Shows, and more.

What new vision can pluralism bring to today's universities? Today, founder of Interfaith America Eboo Patel, joins John to discuss how pluralism can be a guiding principle in transforming higher education away from rigid ideological confines towards a more inclusive and dynamic intellectual space.Eboo shares his journey to understanding pluralism. He views pluralism as a way to embrace one's identity while valuing others and notes that the approach to anti-racism in some universities is shifting from helpful to controlling. Ebo believes that pluralism can balance extreme views by fostering intellectual diversity and respectful dialogue. He also suggests ways to create "Pluralist Universities," such as starting pluralism fellowships, doing research for future diversity needs, and developing a liberal arts curriculum that reflects a diverse society. In This Episode:Evolution of anti-racism from perspective to paradigm to coercive regimePersonal narratives and pluralism at the Nantucket ProjectPluralism as navigating between "wokeness" and "whitewashing"Implementation of pluralism in universitiesHistorical roots and modern applications of pluralismRoles of intellectual, identity, values, and agonistic pluralism in higher educationCritique of overemphasis on victimhood in diversity discussionsFor further reading, refer to Eboo Patel's co-authored article with Rebecca Russo on pluralism practices at universities.  About Eboo:Eboo Patel is a civic leader who believes that religious diversity is an essential and inspiring dimension of American democracy. Named “one of America's best leaders” by U.S. News and World Report, Eboo is the Founder and President of Interfaith America, the leading interfaith organization in the United States. Under his leadership, Interfaith America has worked with governments, universities, private companies, and civic organizations to make faith a bridge of cooperation rather than a barrier of division. Eboo served on President Obama's Inaugural Faith Council, has given hundreds of keynote addresses, and has written five books, including We Need to Build: Field Notes for Diverse Democracy. He is an Ashoka Fellow and holds a doctorate in the sociology of religion from Oxford University, where he studied on a Rhodes scholarship.

In this interview, the incredible Gail Wetzler, PT, DPT, EBO, BI-D and I will be exploring the fascinating connections between the pelvic floor and foot engagement—a topic we've delved into while treating a mutual patient.One of our shared clients with significant neuropathy needed help with his ankle strategy and keeping his toes down during sit-to-stand movements. This journey of discovery began when Gail asked, "Have you cued his pelvic floor?" That simple question unlocked a wealth of new insights.Join us as we dive into how it's all interconnected—from anatomy to brain function—and uncover the best ways to analyze and cue these movements. Gail Wetzler, PT, DPT, EBO, BI-D  currently owns an integrative physical therapy practice in Denver, Colorado, where they treat orthopedic, fascial/muscular/soft tissue, neurologic, pain,respiratory, digestive, mTBI and women's and men's health issues. After receiving her initial degree in physical therapy, she pursued her first experience in acute orthopedic care at Hoag Hospital, Newport Beach California. Within 1 year, she became the outpatient clinical supervisor and thus began her journey and desire for continuing education in the science and art of human movement and function. She studied with Travell and Simons, Mennell, Kaltenborn, Maitland, McKenzie, Mitchell, Jones and Greenman in the earlier years of manual therapy education. Inspired by these methods of treatment, she became an assistant teacher to Dr. Janet Travell and later an instructor with the Institute of Physical Art (IPA) developed by Gregg Johnson and Vicky Saliba Johnson.In a few years, she developed her own private practice, at which time she received a large number of head, neck and TMJ pain patients. This became a driver to learn more about cranial osteopathy, craniosacral therapy and how the fields of physical therapy and dentistry could collaborate to help these patients. As she pursued continuing education classes with Dr. John Upledger, he inspired her to learn more about the different systems in the body and how they all integrated for function. During one of her earlier speaking engagements for the Upledger Institute ( Beyond the Dura), she met Jean Pierre Barral DO, who inspired the importance of anatomy, the ability to listen to the body and the specificity of tissue dialogue in manual therapy techniques. She has listened and followed his mentoring into understanding the body's deeper fascial relationship of the viscera, vascular, neurological and manual articular systems since 1989. Gail has been an instructor for the Barral Institute (BI) since 1991 and became the BI Curriculum Director in 2001.In her career, she has been invited to speak at multiple professional conferences including National and State levels for the APTA, USC Head, Neck and Facial Pain Clinic, University of California, Irvine (UCI), Beyond the Dura Research Conferences, "Hope" Head Injury Organization, and was the keynote speaker in Italy for the Fascial Manipulation Research Conference presented by Antonio, Carla and Luigi Stecco. She is the Past Director of Physical Therapy for the Integrative Medicine Center at UCI. She is currently part of the Research Team for the Upledger Foundation for their recent studies on Post Concussion Recovery She currently teaches for the Women's Health Section of the APTA "Gynecological Visceral Manipulation". Gail earned her Diplomate from the Barral Institute in 2005. She earned her Equine Diplomate in Osteopathy from Vluggen Institute of Equine Osteopathy in 2009 and she earned her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Rosalind Franklin University, Chicago, in 2013.Gail serves on the Women's Health Task Force for the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC).Resources: APTA Academy of Pelvic Health Physical Therapy (aptapelvichealth.org)

Welcome to Higher Density Living, where we delve into the profound principles that govern the universe. In this episode, Alexander and Jason will discuss Exo-Biospheric Organisms. As humanity continues to expand its knowledge of the cosmos, the search for extraterrestrial life remains one of the most intriguing and significant scientific endeavors. This episode delves into the enigmatic world of EBOs, discussing their potential existence, characteristics, and implications for our understanding of life beyond our planet. This breakthrough went viral in a Reddit social forum.   The interesting part about this is not its artificial construction but the actual similarities of these organisms to the real, natural design found in our biology. Exo-Biospheric Organisms are proposed to be living entities that thrive in the harsh conditions of space, particularly in the upper atmosphere of planets, moons, or even interstellar space. These organisms would need to be highly adaptable and resilient, capable of surviving extreme temperature fluctuations, radiation exposure, and vacuum conditions.   Given the precedence of this internet sensation, EBOs are the latest in the pipeline of multinational government efforts to sustain and slowly proliferate the declassification of extraterrestrials.   Moreover, the discovery of EBOs could raise ethical questions about human exploration and colonization of celestial bodies. Implementing strict planetary protection protocols will be vital to preserve the pristine environments where EBOs might exist and to avoid disrupting potential ecosystems.   Exo-Biospheric Organisms (EBOs) represent a captivating aspect of astrobiology, fueling our curiosity about life beyond our planet. While their existence remains speculative, the pursuit of discovering these enigmatic organisms pushes the boundaries of our understanding of life's adaptability and the potential for extraterrestrial life. As technology advances and our knowledge of the cosmos expands, the quest to unveil the mysteries of EBOs becomes an integral part of the ongoing search for life beyond Earth.   The discussion then turns to EBOs, organisms believed to exist outside our biosphere that have captured the public imagination. The episode draws parallels between the design of religion and EBOs, highlighting how both resonate with individuals on a spiritual level. The hosts explore the environmental impact of humans versus EBOs and discuss the benefits of copper in human and EBO biology, suggesting artificial intelligence may play a role in EBOs' creation.   While urging a healthy dose of skepticism, we criticize the U.S. military's secrecy around UFOs and argue that independent research is needed to discern truth from misinformation. Ultimately, we argue that the objective of life is to nurture and perfect evolution as close to nature as possible. They advocate for a state of "apotheosis" where we become one with nature.   Let us join Alexander and Jason as discuss Extraterrestrial Organisms.   Please Support our sponsor TARTLE.CO.

What would you do if you had proof of non-human, intelligent life?

2:[1:16] Did you ever see the movie City Slickers? Track 3:[1:18] Yeah. Track 1:[1:19] Yeah, years ago. Track 2:[1:19] There's a great, the great monologue by Billy Crystal in the beginning of that. He's like, your 20s are a blur. Your 30s, you make a little money, raise a wife, have a couple of kids, buy a house. Your 40s, you wake up one day and you think to yourself, what happened to my 30s? He goes on to every decade and then he's like, your 80s, you end up like, you eat breakfast at, or whatever, you eat dinner at five, lunch at 10, breakfast the night before. Track 3:[1:52] It's just like, dinner's at four. Track 1:[1:55] Yeah, exactly. Track 3:[1:56] Dinner's at four. Track 2:[1:56] Oh, it's so good. Track 1:[1:58] They're taking all Tim's happy hour seats. Yeah. All the octogenarians. Track 3:[2:03] My father's in a retirement home and when I talk to him, he says, they're coming for me for dinner earlier every day. It's three o'clock. It's coming for dinner. Track 1:[2:20] Like, dude, just call a happy hour. Fuck it. Yeah. So in 2004, we got the ninth studio record by The Hip, In Between Evolution. This is a, you know. Like Clockwork, every two years we've got a record from this band, you know, and they were still touring their brains out. I think it's a staggering feat, you know, that a band with their original lineup can put out a record every two years, you know, guided by voices or bands like that, notwithstanding, thosesongwriters are, you know, Bob Puller, it's just so prolific. It's, it's unreal. But in terms of band work, bands that tour extensively, I don't know of many other bands that have had this kind of halcyon run. But here we are, talking about it. And as we always do, I want to find out environmentally what you thought of the record, where you listened to it, where you first heard it and what your overall general thoughts are onthis 9th record produced by Adam Kasper. What do you think? Track 2:[3:45] I think the name is very fitting, In Between Evolution, because I feel like this record is a bit in between. And I say that, you know, when you're in elementary school, you see the monkey going, you know, to like Croag Magnon Man and then like getting up through the ages to get to the likemodern day man, modern day human. I feel like this record is maybe not any of those, but something like in between that we sort of haven't seen before, you know. It's certainly an evolved version of the hip, but I can't really attribute it to anything they've ever done before or anything I think they will do. It's very different in a lot of ways. Track 1:[4:38] Where do you listen to this one? Track 2:[4:41] I listen to it everywhere. I listen to it out and about. I listen to it in my office, working. Probably best place was in the car, you know. The car really, this record was, I feel like, made for driving, you know, like a lot of their records, you know. So I would say if I had to pick any environment, definitely my car, I mean, I don't know if it's everybody's car, I have a bit of a bias, given that, you know, I've got a pretty solid soundsystem in my car, like a premium. But yeah, I enjoyed it in the car. Track 3:[5:23] We need a soundbite that's like, that's like, premium sound system. Track 2:[5:31] We can drop that in post. Track 3:[5:32] Yeah. Well, I, you know, I'll disagree with Pete. I, to me, this felt more hip, right out the gates and you know I think Pete and I differed a little bit on the last album and I'm really liking our, you know, compare and contrast. I'll just quickly add Pete's haircuts throwing me off a little bit today, but I can deal. I can deal. But anyways, that looks good. [6:06] I thought In Violet Light, the last album, what we reviewed was a little bit of a departure and super polished and, you know, made for like, I don't know, an award stage or something.Maybe have the Oscars on the mind. but I thought in Between Evolution, I looked at the title wondering if that meant they were coming back to their own production type, style, soundrecording. You know, I didn't really understand the title for this one because it felt more like a hip album to me. [6:43] The producer, you know, I looked up to see who did this one. Adam Kasper, he did all kinds of bands in Seattle. Mudhoney, Nirvana, you know, the Foo Fighters, he worked with REM. I don't know if it was all in Seattle, but Soundgarden. He even did some work with Cat Power, who Amy and I adore. One of our favorite singer-songwriters. Just, you know, you worked with amazing musicians. And all these musicians I just listed, maybe except for kind of Aerosmith, I'm not exactly a fan of. But, you know, these are bands, maybe Aerosmith, who wear their hearts on their sleeve and really are just going for it. And almost achieving a status where they have a following and they have their shit down and they can kind of do what they want, you know? And I felt like this album went back to the band a little bit more doing what they want. So I was pretty excited, pretty excited by it. Track 1:[7:43] Can you describe that a little bit more? Like, what do you mean by what they want? Track 3:[7:49] Well, the last album I thought was overproduced. I thought it was... Track 1:[7:52] Right, right. Track 3:[7:53] I thought it was too scripted, you know, I thought it was too, like, ha, here we go back to food metaphors. It's like showing up at a restaurant with a preset menu. That's what I felt the last album was, and I felt like this one was a little bit more carefree. It was a little bit more back to experimental. The lyrics, the themes behind all the songs were, in certain ways, like what I've experienced from other albums past themes, with variation and variety. I don't know, this felt more hip to me. This just felt more like the first handful of albums that got me excited about where the band was going. So in that regard, it's like, yeah, fuck. Let's do this every two years. We're going on 10 years. Or this was the ninth album, right? So it's over 10 years. And that, that to me, as Pete knows, as someone who has recorded, that is such a... [8:58] Heroic work with Yeah with touring to as much as these guys toured I mean It's remarkable that they're all still digging each other so much, you know Yeah, but from also from acouple of things that I read during this tour Is when Gord at one point commented about, even if there's differences going on behind the scenes or Or there was some tour manager issues, Iguess, that once they got on stage and started playing, that they just were a band. They were like NSYNC and just super, super in the groove. Track 2:[9:41] Not like NSYNC. Track 3:[9:42] Yeah, they were very much NSYNC. Just super in the groove, which means they're like this fucking locomotive still. So I think it's still super impressive. Even with a band that I'm not as impressed with or fond of, it's still an impressive feat to go this far with recording, producing, touring, everything. Track 1:[10:05] Yeah. Track 2:[10:07] Yes. Track 3:[10:08] Hands down. Absolutely. Track 2:[10:09] Kudos. Track 1:[10:11] And in terms of environments for you? Track 3:[10:14] Yeah, so it was a lot of car. I listened to it pretty quick after our last review. There's a lot of car time and some home time. I don't play their music much at home over my home systems. So it's a lot of car, a lot of headphones. It's a little more intimate for me to do it that way and I also really enjoy when bands geek out on recording, and you can hear things with headphones on that you wouldn't normally reallybe in tune with if you're just walking around the house playing it through your ear. Track 2:[10:56] There's a few of those on this record. Track 3:[10:57] Yeah, there's a few of those on this record, and I love that stuff. I mean, that to me shows that a band is really caring about their listeners and their fans and their art. There's a few of that. Track 1:[11:14] Well let's dig in then. Heaven is a better place today. Track 3:[11:21] So, yeah, this one, you know, there's been a few albums where... My first listen to the first song. I've never done a random listen first try, you know, and that's the way so many people experience music these days. I hear a song from an artist. So I might have to try that as an experiment on some album. But you know, first listen to Heaven is a Better Place Today in the car. It was like, yes, here we go. Like, Pete, you mentioned a great road trip soundtrack or whatever. This is totally it. It felt like a good, fun, solid opener with a drive and the carry of the drums and the bass really throughout this album seemed a little more...I mean they're always solid butthis one just even seemed more gelled, which is kind of hard to even imagine these guys doing. I loved Gord's singing. He's kind of at an elevated pitch with this one and, you know, from what I understand, it's...well. [12:33] My first take was like, this feels like a memorial song, like this is a tribute to somebody and Of course later learned that it's in part about Dan Snyder. I mean, I'm not a hockey guy I mean even I couldn't even tell you who Atlanta's team is or was Atlanta thrashers. That's probably my favorite hockey team name though so, you know read a little bit about Danny Heatley, did I just say his name wrong? No, don't sorry Dan Snyder Snyder Um, he was killed when is with his teammate Danny Healy. Track 1:[13:08] That's right. Track 3:[13:09] They're the ones who were Wrecked some sports car, which is such a tragic story, you know to hear about somebody famous wrecking in a sports car. It's just It's kind of an awesome way to go. But anyways, you know, I thought it was good solid Opener really really easy ending. It was like, okay, let's keep going How about you Pete I dug it. Track 2:[13:32] I mean, I echo a lot of what Tim said. I mean, I feel like a great opening track. I really got some some some cure vibes here. I really felt like this song had, Yeah, just I heard a lot of the cure in here. I think Gord's vocals, clearly this is a record and we'll kind of get into it with more songs and stuff. Not just, I feel like there's so many songs that probably killed it live on this record, but that Gord's vocals really just keep evolving into something new. I mean, I feel like every member of the band grows a lot, but he's just, it's like everybody takes three steps forward and Gord takes like nine. You know, he skips where everybody just takes steps. It's crazy, man. Track 3:[14:36] Completely. Track 2:[14:37] That's not like a diss on anybody in the band. It's just, I think he thinks differently, or he thought differently, either way, I dug this song. I thought it was a great opener. The second track, Summer's Killing Us, yeah, this is another one where the vocals really do it for me. Um, there's a, there's a part, well, during the chorus, when Gord's singing, um, Summer is Killing Us, like his voice is cracking. You can hear it breaking on the recording. And it's just like, it doesn't crack. Like it's, it just fits. It's perfect. And you're like, this guy's, this guy's, he's redlining the engine and the car is still going. you, You know what I mean? Track 3:[15:33] Like, and the car, I think, has like, 300,000 kilometers on it, you know? Yeah, and it's just like, go, go, go, who cares? Track 1:[15:43] Yeah, they could sing, sing, sing all day. Track 2:[15:47] Yeah, it's I mean, it's had its oil changes and services, I'm sure. Track 3:[15:51] Exactly. Track 2:[15:52] The drums, another thing about the drums on this, I watched some, well, you guys know, I'll talk about a little more later songs, but the drums on this song, A song that just seemslike it's probably so much fun to play for Jonny Faye. Just the stops, the fills, just, it just seemed like if anybody's having a blast, it's him and Gord Downie are just fucking having a ball to this song. Track 3:[16:20] I think you've commented on that before, too. And this one, this one I noticed, you know, first listen was like, oh, he's having fun. There's some fills in there, and that made me think this one live, you know, probably varied a little bit, but probably just kicked ass, too. Yeah, I think. Track 2:[16:39] Yeah, and I gotta say, this is gonna sound really bad, so I want to frame it right. I just want to throw this in because I feel like if I didn't throw it in, I'd be... My initial thought... So this is 2004, right? Yeah. 2003, 2004. 2004 you think when they're recording writing this song I got just Gord's vocals and his phrasing very much got some like early 2000s emo vibes to it. I actually heard and I don't mean this in a disrespectful way So no, no do not give away my address JD. I don't I mean Canada's a far away from Spain, but I got getting hip to the hip calm. Yeah for for comments Emo my ass No, but I really heard I heard a dashboard confessional song Yes pretty mind-blowing, you know Yeah, okay. You hear me? Track 3:[17:41] Okay, I do. I do. I would a million times rather listen to this band. No, 100%. Track 2:[17:48] But I hear you. Track 3:[17:50] But I hear you. Track 2:[17:51] And no, no offense, because I think that I think the guy I can't remember his, his name, the guy. Track 3:[17:56] That's okay. Track 2:[17:57] No, I know. No, just respect him as a musician. I think he's a good musician. I just don't fancy his music much. Anyway. Track 3:[18:08] You know, I was shouting this chorus in the car. Like, first listen, you could sing along to this one. If you know the band, you're like, fucking hyped. Hell yeah, it's a song about summer. Who doesn't like a song about summer? Track 1:[18:19] That's right. Track 3:[18:20] That band always sings about summer, said no one ever. So this one, you could just go. There's awesome stops, there's a good bridge, there's... A few times on this album I think there's more of a focus on just I don't know how to say it Pete but just a better rhythm guitar less riffy like the feel like this album has riff sections thatare a little bit more defined or declared maybe yeah yeah yeah this one gourds at like the three-minute He's like, whoo, you know when he left that it is so good I love that. I love that. Track 1:[19:05] I mean I like exhausted slash. Track 3:[19:06] I'm awesome slash I don't even know what the other slash would be but it's like it's great Yeah, if you're having a moment and you stop and you can actually breathe and do thatwhoo I mean you're having a good day like something's going on something's going on that you're enjoying or you're relieved But I also thought this song was like a song about being tiredand touring and working. Also, you know, maybe some of the research I did, that maybe there were some references again to the South, or slavery, or prison life, you know, that's just like, summer's killing us, youknow? It's amazing and beautiful and tough at the same time. That's kind of what I thought about this song. It's, it felt, this is a few times I have had this happen where the song feels long, but it's like measured in a good way. It's like, it's just, there's enough verses, enough choruses. Track 1:[20:12] I think this is one of the longer songs on the record. Track 3:[20:15] Yeah, yeah. This was, this was fun. Track 2:[20:19] This song, this song also, I just wanted to throw this in too, because I kind of forgot to mention it, one of the cool things about it is that it just goes from this, the chorus is sofucking, but then when it goes back into like the verse, it just, it brings it down again. It just, it just, it flattens it like a, like a compressor. It just flattens it really quick and just makes it even again. You're like, whoo, like the dynamic of the band recordings. It's really cool. That's a hard thing to pull off, man. Track 1:[20:53] I really regret not seeing this tour. Like, really. I have so much regret not seeing this tour. Because this is the first tour that I missed since the beginning. This is the first one that I didn't go see a show. And listening to the record now, it's like, oh man, it's again, so much of it seems to be written to be live, you know? Track 3:[21:18] She must have been really cute, JD. Pardon me? Your girlfriend at the time, I guess. You were busy. Track 1:[21:29] Oh, yeah. Track 2:[21:30] Yeah. Track 3:[21:31] Dude, the next song, you know, Gus, I faintly remember hearing about this. Track 1:[21:35] Yes. Track 3:[21:37] Back then. I mean, if we go back to 2004, you know, this is like the era, politics aside, because we'll probably get into that, but this is like the era when shit online started to take off,you know? Everybody's looked at YouTube. Some of your friends might be listening to Pandora, which at that time had the best radio feature. You could like mix stations and you know There's a lot there's a lot going on electronically The zeros are ones then i'm pretty sure i heard about this song and um, I was telling amy wifeamy yesterday this story about gus This polar bear from central park and uh how they they just deduced that, He was depressed And amy's like no shit polar bear and Activity it was likeyeah, I mean a polar bear's life is what? [22:39] Sleeping, drinking, killing, eating, fucking. I mean, let's put a polar bear in captivity and see how hyped he is. I mean, that's just terrible. So this is amazing that they, I guess, Gord, I don't know who exactly picked up on the story and wrote this one. And, you know, this is also where there was some, maybe the beginning of this album with some political under things here as well but there's this first guitar riff at the beginning of thissong Pete I'm sure you heard it but there's like this there's this weird guitar kind of distortion distortion yeah like that that attack at the beginning is like I wish also I mean live it wouldprobably been so fun to hear that I'm sure it varied a little bit but that's like that outro that outro live must have been so yeah banging yeah drums are huge in this one you know and i'vejust i dug this song it was it was fun there's i could go on and on about it but you know just this poor guy gus he's staring at food all day at the zoo i mean he would eat all these people yesgawking at him so of course he's suffering from depression this is like during this era, scientists were like, he might be depressed. [24:06] Bears, animals can have sentiments of depression. [24:11] It's fucking hilarious. Terrible. Track 2:[24:16] I mean, where do I put down my fucking flag here with this one, dude? First of all, if I was going to start a bar fight, this would be the fucking song I'd put on the J-box right before I picked up the neck of a Labatt Blue, fucking break it over somebody's headand just start a melee. Track 3:[24:41] Shit. Track 2:[24:42] Okay. Track 3:[24:43] Watch out, Hamilton. Yeah. Track 2:[24:49] So, Tim, you're telling the story of the polar bear from Central Park, right? And now that you're telling the story, I remember it. Yeah. Track 3:[24:57] Yeah, me too. Track 2:[24:58] But during listening to this, I didn't remember it because that was a long time ago. And I drank a lot of beer and done a lot of shit since then. And so it didn't register. And so I pictured like a bearded homeless man, a giant bear of a man who was depressed and an alcoholic sitting and fucking with people in Central Park. That's who I heard when I heard this song. I didn't, I didn't at all have any correlation with the actual story of Costa Polar Bear. But this is the now this this album, and then some subsequent YouTube videos that I explored this week, really got me digging into the vibe that is Paul Langlois, because you could Youcan just hear this thumping, it's a thumping vibe that he has with this Les Paul that he's playing and it just fucking rips. This song is the tiger, the lion of this record. Track 3:[26:13] I had the same sentiment for sure. Track 2:[26:17] It's the fucking tiger, the lion of this record. What else? I would say I literally, I literally wrote, I literally wrote that, that, that, that I would be cracking balls a little bit blue, a little bit blue over people's heads. But no, it's the tiger, the lion of this record. And I feel like Neil Young is a lot of guitar on this this record is very Neil Young focused. Track 1:[26:50] I can hear Crazy Horse in this. Track 2:[26:53] Yeah, there's another song that's undoubtedly Crazy Horse. But the end, the solo, Rob Baker proceeds, and I'm going to read this verbatim. The solo, Rob Baker proceeds to melt your fucking face off with a complete and utter disregard for human life. Track 3:[27:10] And that he does. Track 2:[27:13] He starts off that way. He just, well, it just, the solo towards the end is just, it's just fucking, fuck me, man. Track 1:[27:25] Yeah, very good. Track 2:[27:26] Great fucking tune. Probably, yeah, this is, this may end up on the, for my pick, who knows. Track 1:[27:33] All right, we roll into the first single from the record. So this would be the song that introduced most people to this record and it's it's a song called vaccination scar First of all before we get into vaccination scar to either you guys have avaccination scar Nope. No, my cousin has one and she's a year younger than me And I don't understand how she has one and I don't like expired shit. Track 3:[27:59] They put in her arm, I guess maybe it's all my ears on your arm no it's on my calf oh wow okay it's on my calf well it's almost gone now but it was pretty prominent um almost untili turned 20 or something around there i mean my my brain with this one went just went to you know Pfizer and all the all the crazy bullshit oh no oh no i mean that's where i went i readthe song Title and I know okay. This is probably about the booster the the cigar look bird Vaccination scar on my sister's left arm. She's got right here. She's like three years older than me So she's got it. But you know and that's like why the fuck did that thing scar like that? I don't know. Could you imagine I mean, why didn't they build that into the the Johnson Johnson? Johnson and Johnson could have had like, they have that trippy logo. Have you ever seen their actual brand logo? Track 1:[28:59] No. Track 3:[28:59] Oh, people say it has like Satan in it, basically. Oh, of course. It's hilarious. Pete, you would like that research. It's too bad. Track 1:[29:08] But I'll tell you, this song would be a completely different song if the band still existed and they released a song called Vaccination Scar now. Oh, big time. Wonder what the fuck it would be about. Track 3:[29:21] Yeah They might lose listeners and gain listeners at the same. Track 1:[29:25] Yeah, it's true Well, this one a throwback to a throwback, you know We've got the slide guitar again that we haven't really rolled out for a couple records. I don't think What you guys think? Track 3:[29:37] I You know the whole when they get into the slide guitar and kind of go back to So, you know the southern belt of the US kind of sound of rock and that's it's not my favorite thatthey do but right yeah I was a little surprised to hear this is the most listened song song on Spotify I look at that at those that I know I look at that data at the end of kind of my listening Idon't look at that at the beginning. Track 1:[30:09] It does blow my mind because I get it that it's a single. Track 3:[30:11] Yeah why? Is it because it has vaccination in the name? Track 1:[30:15] It might be, because the fact that it's a single shouldn't factor into Spotify at this point. Yeah, yeah. Unless they do, unless they sort of do. Track 2:[30:27] No, they don't retroactive, they don't retroactive shit like that. No. Track 3:[30:32] Yeah, I wouldn't think so either. Yeah, but I thought, you know, this is really, It's the second song. With political references to George Bush, the Iraq invasion, the WMDs that didn't exist, like this, there's references in the song about all of that. And that in and of itself is like a time capsule of sorts. Track 1:[30:57] Yeah, and we were thinking the world was a pretty bad place then. Track 3:[31:00] Yeah, it's basically an anti-war song, even though like during that era, I don't know, there were like six or eight other countries that were on board with this whole attack, you know,I believe Spain was one of them. Track 2:[31:13] So it's for everyone. Yeah. Right. States. Track 3:[31:19] So, you know, I, I hate to say it, but I enjoy like hearing something political referencing the times and, you know, it becomes a time capsule type of song with, with those themesduring, let's see, I guess late 80s, in which these guys would have been totally in tune with. You know, that's when the Bushes were really rising to power and going after mega weapons developments. And a buddy of mine grew up in the Carolinas during those George Bush senior years and knew the family, and they have crazy stories about shit they were doing. I don't need the FBI chasing me, but like, a lot of bullshit activity that involves war and weapons in the corporate aspect of America's machine and economy running on just. The war machine. So that's where I feel like Gord's really tapping into in this album. And it keeps going. He's kind of in it in this album. Track 1:[32:27] It was a tough environment to not be in it. And it rips my heart right out of my ribcage and throws it on the ground to think that this band isn't around anymore. Because I would love to know what Gord's thinking about... Track 2:[32:41] You're burying my fucking lead, JD. Track 1:[32:43] Sorry, buddy. Go ahead. Track 2:[32:44] No, no, dude, no, run with it, run with it. Track 3:[32:47] They'd be the Pussy Riot of Canada, I'll tell you that. Track 2:[32:49] JD, please, please continue, I'm sorry. Track 1:[32:51] I just, I just, you know, I just, I would just love to hear his take on what's been going on the last five or six years, you know? And we really missed out on that. And that's like, fuck cancer, you know? Fuck cancer. Yeah, yeah. Some of the lyrics in this, I think they just roll. I think the way he sings in this song He's he's into that lower register, you know Like you said the with the side guitar like it's it's almost anolder version of the band and he's singing again in that older Version voice but man some of the lyrics that he strings together like even the chorus. There's one thing I remember is the tear and the there's one thing I remember is this tear on your bare shoulder this little silver boulder the slowly falling star we're rolling so what nevergetting older where the moon shock curtains part to the start of enough a teardrop then a vaccination scar like holy shit I don't know how I get all that out imagine that writing moment inpen in hand and, you're just like it's just yeah it's incredible yeah well yeah I mean, I echo everything that you guys have said. Track 2:[34:09] Funny point. Just I don't want to leave it out because you made me think of it, Tim, when you were talking about George Bush. This is not unknown, but a great George H.W. Bush fact, Bush number one, our first Bush president, doesn't remember where he was the day Kennedy was shot. What? Track 1:[34:34] Yeah, yeah. Track 2:[34:35] Look that up. That's a total fact. And he was actually in Dallas because there's There's like evidence of it, but you know, everybody's like, I mean, I remember where I was in thechallenge of blew up I remember where I was when Kobe Bryant died when I remember when yeah 9-11 out. Sorry Yeah, Kobe Bryant was you know, now that was a big bit bigger. No offense to Kobe fans But yeah, and he was asked where were you when Kennedy was shot? He's like, I don't remember like what? Track 1:[35:05] Yeah Everybody of that generation, my mom knew where she was and she was a Canadian in Waterford. Track 3:[35:10] You know, they're so detached. The, the, the, the, that whole section of political history just lived on. Track 2:[35:17] If by detached, you mean culpable, Tim, then yes. Track 3:[35:21] Yeah, yeah, completely. I mean, like just not relatable. They just, honestly, like my, my buddy and his family in the late eighties, early 90s, used to meet up at one of their homes. This is the story. Used to meet up at one of their homes on the coast, Bush's homes. And like, oh, our new whatever jet boat is going to come by. Can't wait to show you guys. We'll go for a ride. Like just completely alternative, horrible reality of life and what's appropriate. Track 2:[35:59] Yeah, I mean, that family's, I mean, what more could you say without getting too political? Track 3:[36:04] There was a moment when, we'll get off of politics here, there was a moment during the Trump administration where I was like, damn, I would take Mr. Bush Jr. any moment, bring him back right now, let's swap him out. And I never would have thought that when he was in office. You know? Track 2:[36:22] Well, yeah, it's pretty sad. Track 1:[36:24] For sure, I feel the same way. Track 2:[36:26] It's pretty sad, though, that we're at, that stage, I mean, to bring it back to the record and sort of to not bring it back to the record, because musically, I feel like this song, you guyssummed it up. But in terms of what JD said about the one thing I thought about this song, I kept thinking about was Gord and if he was alive today and this band was alive today. And I say that because he was such a unifying icon for Canada and the band was, I mean, the guy could bring people together completely. And I think America's been divided for a long time. Tim and I both know that pretty well and anybody from the outside who's windowed… That's like his West Coasters, right? You guys really have felt it. Track 3:[37:26] Yeah, yeah, yeah. Track 2:[37:29] But I think that in terms of Canada and everything that went on during the whole COVID lockdown and stuff, I feel like Gord would have had a really interesting take on it. Because I feel like there was the... You know, it's, there's always three sides of every story. And the way we kind of, most people experience COVID, most people, you either were fucking hardcore on the left, or you'rehardcore on the right. But there's one thing I've learned in life. There's the way you think it happened. It's the way the other person thought it was happened. And then there's the way it really happened. Track 1:[38:06] Look at you dropping extreme references, three sides to every story. Track 2:[38:10] I'm just saying, I feel like Gordon would bring a fucking take, and the band would bring a take to, you know, what's going on in life at this time. That just would open people's eyes. And a lot of people on both the right and the left would shut the fuck up and listen to A Voice of Reason, which- I think you're right. Would have been Gord Downie, had it not been for his untimely death. Track 3:[38:35] But I mean, we have that in this day and age, but it's just spread out. And I don't know, less, it's smaller, smaller doses more widely spread out through music today. Well, there's plenty of bands doing it, but like, I don't know. Track 2:[38:53] I agree sort of, Tim, but I think musically, it's one thing to do it musically, but Gord was more than a musician. Track 3:[39:00] Yeah, yeah. Track 2:[39:01] From what I've seen, he's a guy that would get up and make a fucking statement, like outside of music and nowadays I feel like when people make a statement that it's against, thecommon narrative of whatever, They're tarred and feathered as either. You're a racist fuck or you're a liberal Nancy or whatever it is. And the funny thing about Gord is you couldn't do that to him because he was Canada's fucking golden boy. So I would have loved to have seen anybody in Canada try to throw shade onthat motherfucker when he was... Had he been here to dispel the truth like he always liked to do. Anyway, I digress. How about... Track 3:[39:43] I have a feeling like only rednecks in the South were throwing shade at him, you know. Track 1:[39:49] There's a reference in this song about singing Life is Forgetting, and Life is Forgetting is in quotes. I looked it up, I can't find a song called Life is Forgetting. Is that something that rings the bell for you guys? Or is that just, you know, the narrator basically saying that that's a song that somebody's singing that's made up? Track 3:[40:12] Not sure. Track 2:[40:15] No. I'm not sure either. But if I take it into context of what we're talking about, I think people forget, life is forgetting. Tim made the reference earlier about wanting George Bush over Donald Trump at the height of whatever. And I think people forget, you know, I am not Not a Donald Trump fan, didn't vote for the guy, but you can take all the shit that's said and everything, and I'm not carrying water foranybody, let me make this fucking clear, but it's mind boggling to me how we can think that, and I thought it at times too Tim, you're not alone in that, I think a lot of people thought it, buthow we could, be like, I'd rather have a guy who started a war, an illegal war on lies that killed upwards of a million people. In the White House right now, rather than a guy who's just a total piece of shit scumbag who shouldn't be there in the first place. Like we forget that there's a guy who is literally responsible for killing a million people and starting multiple illegal wars. And we'd rather have that person. So life is forgetting, JD. I think that line belongs in that song. If we're talking about politics. Track 1:[41:41] Well, he said fuck this and fuck that and this guy's the diplomat. It can't be Nashville every night. Track 3:[41:52] I love the simplicity of this one. It's quick. You know, what we are is what we lack. That song was just like, if anything's going to make you think about oneself and what you're portraying and working on, or I don't know, that statement just slapped me. There's Gord, I think, is faintly doing his own backup singing in this one, if you really crank it in your headphones, and it's fucking awesome, and it was even kind of cute. I just dug it. The chorus, or maybe it's a verse, I don't know, the la-la-oh-oh-yas, you know, just simple, good rock and roll. Apparently, he's poking fun at Toby Keith with this song. Track 1:[42:41] Oh, did not know that. Track 3:[42:42] He was a country music singer who was pro-America, pro-military, pro-goat. Track 2:[42:51] He was Tarn and Feather the Dixie Chicks, man. He was one of the guys that went against the grain on that and threw them out to try. Track 3:[42:59] Yeah, I also think this is like a song that's, Trying to let artists know that there's more to life than producing a single, you know? This is a time of this era, fucking Maroon 5, Nickelback, you know? This is a little bit later Lenny Kravitz, but when Lenny Kravitz is just like glossed up and just everyone knows the chorus, you know? But nobody has bought the album, maybe. I don't know. I'm not dissing Lenny Kravitz too much. You can diss Lenny Kravitz. He's his own... Well, he's the institution. I mean, I saw him play live and he was incredible. Track 1:[43:37] I did too. That first record was really good with the cab driver on it. Track 3:[43:42] Yep. I saw Blind Melon open for them. Me too! Track 1:[43:46] Oh, shit. Track 3:[43:47] Dude, okay, just to digress. Blind Melon kicked Lenny and his band's ass. Like, Blind Melon, they were so good then. You know, they... Track 2:[43:59] Yeah, we've had this conversation, Jake. Track 3:[44:00] Yeah, so good. So good. So anyways, you know, the song I thought was short and great. And it's just, it's got some good quick statements. It was, I don't know, it just fit for where it was at and everything. That's about it. Track 2:[44:17] Cool. I dug this tune. Real quick, just to my Lenny Kravitz comment, not dissing the guy, I like the music. I think his daughter is a great actress. Track 3:[44:30] Gorgeous. Track 2:[44:31] Just never trust a guy who only plays a flying V. Track 3:[44:33] Never. Track 2:[44:38] It's a fucking red flag, ladies. Track 3:[44:40] At the beginning of COVID, he was apparently stuck on his island in the Caribbean, or like a island with just a handful of other people living there. And he's just like, just living off coconuts and pineapples and avocados, bro. I was like, fuck you. That sounds perfect. Yeah, I would have killed for that. Track 2:[45:03] Yeah, I dug the song. I thought, I thought this is another one that would have been awesome live. The groove was just fantastic. There's a line that he delivers that I'm sure you guys all noticed, but I love the the way it's, one is stares into the blur, stares into the glare, stares into the queer. And it's just fucking, like the way he delivers it, I was like, what is he saying there? And I had to look up the lyrics, cause it was so cool. Cool. Johnny Faye, literally, I don't know what it is, man. But like, this is when he's around early 2000. He started like getting like destroying crash cymbals. And I know I pointed out to you guys this week as I was watching the video, like there's a, there's a concert they were playing, maybe it was at the Fillmore where he just broke a fuckingcymbal, because the motherfucker hit it so hard. And you can see a guy replacing the cymbal like just coming in. Track 3:[46:04] He has a drum tech, you know? Track 2:[46:06] Oh, yeah, I know. Well, I mean, he's got something to come in and do it. But like, middle of the song, guy's got to come in and replace the cymbal. I love it. Track 3:[46:14] So cool. Track 2:[46:14] So cool. This is this song and a number of others to point out at the end of the song, if you're wearing headphones, you can hear a couple drumsticks click. Mm hmm. Oh, so this is this is one of the many Easter eggs on this record. Track 3:[46:31] Yeah, I heard that too at first. I was like, is he hitting the rim? But it really sounded like sticks. Track 2:[46:36] There is one that he does. Track 3:[46:37] He does. Track 1:[46:38] He's just putting them down, though, right? He's just putting the sticks down kind of thing? Track 3:[46:41] I mean, in general, yeah. You hear a little more drum nuggets on this album. Track 2:[46:47] But I feel like these songs are like, it's just a signal to like, that was Johnny's song. Like, all the ones that have those, this is Johnny's song. Because he just fucking ripped on these ones. Track 3:[46:59] Yeah, I feel like when a drummer does that, when a drummer just slaps down the sticks, It's like at the end of a good meal, and you just set your knife and fork down, and you'relike, fuck. Just nailed it. And drummers do that with drummers that care. When bands nail it, you can't. I wish I could produce, because I would love to just yell at musicians, and tell them they're awesome, and tell them they're terrible. Track 2:[47:26] Just kidding. Track 3:[47:28] Just kidding. But that's that sound. That's like that triumphant sound of just killing it. Track 1:[47:34] I win. Yeah, touchdown. We move next to Back, in fact. Back to New Orleans. This is the second geographical song on the record of three, which is interesting. But it's also a trip back to New Orleans. And I can't think of many other bands that would have a song as iconic as New Orleans is sinking, which would still be so heavy in the tourrotation and then they release another song with the same name in it. I know that sounds like really trivial but it's interesting to me. It's really interesting. And this is a very different look at New Orleans and a very different sound but I dig this song. Track 3:[48:23] Did they play there? Chady? They played like a small clubs there, right? Track 1:[48:29] Yeah, likely. Yeah down in the down in the south. They weren't you know quite as As big as they were on the west coast and across the border for sure there was yeah They always but they always played like I mean they would do like au.s. Track 3:[48:45] Tour that would be like 40 dates probably, you know, like they they were fairly thorough There was some reference it with this one about him him going back to New Orleans withfriends or something, just for vacation. And I guess maybe in part this is about that visit, because he found places he wanted to go to that were closed, or... Track 1:[49:08] Oh, okay. It's post-Katrina? Track 3:[49:11] I mean, it's 2004. Track 2:[49:11] No, it's pre-Katrina. Track 1:[49:13] Yeah. Track 3:[49:13] Pre-Katrina. Track 1:[49:14] Okay. Track 3:[49:16] I thought this, you know, it's probably the most beautiful song on the album. It's just serene. I don't know, it's love, it's death, it's fading, you know, rashing away the smiles. It's like, fuck, that's just like storing up in your heart for the future, you know, it's just gorgeous guitar during the chorus. It's just, this is a great one. Track 2:[49:39] Yeah, I thought that, I think this probably might be one of the better, if not one of the best hip songs. And I say that, I don't say that lightly. I think it's a really good song and yeah, JD, I mean, I wrote the notes like, what's the deal with New Orleans? You know, why? Just the song was beautiful. There's the lead in to it and then throughout the song, Rob Baker's using what I think by that time was probably pretty dialed in. He was using an Ebo on his guitar, which is like one of those. You ever seen one of those before? No. I've never been able to use it. I'm not a good enough guitar player to be able to use it. Track 1:[50:27] You stop. Track 2:[50:27] No, dude, they're fucking hard to use. Track 1:[50:29] Everybody go out and buy the record, Marchika, and the first one is out. The second one is in production? Track 2:[50:39] So the the the ebow is like a light it's like a ultraviolet light on this thing and you hold it over the guitar string and it it vibrates the string so it makes it sound like a violin bow henceebow electric bow. Oh okay I had no idea. Track 3:[50:57] Me neither. Track 2:[50:58] It's an amazing effect and it's really cool um some guys can pull it off with like volume and sustain but like he's not He's using an EBO on this shit. And it's fucking, it's just a testament to the, like how talented these guys are. how you can. Take what we've heard for the first five songs of this record and then bring it to this and just you're like transported to New Orleans and just you just I thought I kept thinking I saw NewOrleans in this and then hearing this song I felt like God I wish I could have heard this live at like Red Rocks. Track 3:[51:35] Hell yeah yeah oh man. Track 2:[51:39] Clear sky completely pitch black No lights, just drop the lights. Give me a spotlight on Gordon, nothing else. And Rob Baker during the EBO, but other than that. Track 1:[51:49] **Matt Stauffer** Of course. Track 3:[51:51] You have to be on psychedelics to use that thing or what? That sounds difficult. Track 2:[51:54] **Robert Walsh** Dude, it's hard. Track 3:[51:54] **Matt Stauffer** That sounds, yeah. Track 2:[51:56] **Robert Walsh** It looks easy and everybody's like, yeah, it's not easy. It's not easy. Track 1:[52:04] **Matt Stauffer** All right, let's go to to You're Everywhere and Reel Our Irish In. Track 2:[52:12] The, I dug this song. The fucking melody in this song is just, it's wild. I dug it. I dug it. It has a cool, it straps you in a little bit, like kind of soft and easy, but it just builds. I feel like the lyrics to this song are scathing. I didn't dig much into the meaning. But like reading them, just reading them once, I think when I had listened to it a number of times, I was like, Whoa, whoever or whatever this ismaking reference to is a tense subject. Track 3:[53:00] Yeah, so to speak. Gord's angry. Track 1:[53:03] Can you guys be more specific? Track 2:[53:08] If I'd brought up lyrics, I could've. Track 3:[53:10] I mean, on that note, I heard this song and I knew these guys were recording in Seattle and I figure that probably at this point in their career, probably not everything is writtenbefore recording, you know, like ahead of time, weeks or anything. And I imagine these guys, you know, what are they doing, staying in some hotel in Seattle near this recording studio? And the fucking news during this era is nonstop all the time. You know, it's just like, bad news all the time about the war and GWB. And I mean, I wrote, you know, the heaviness of this song, I wrote, we're bombarded by by fear, we were then and now, fear and despair, and then driven out to be sold by hope, tarnishedby soldiers dying, or not having proper access to healthcare, or being addicts, or suicide rates, you know, when vets return from all of our glorious wars, and it's just kind of like the bandfeeling. That the only way that anyone can attack this kind of corporate war machine that's happening is Is to sing about it, you know produce art about it there's a line in there that it keeps theeconomy alive it's like This song is the fuck that bullshit song, you know, you're everywhere point of the war man smedley butler's War is a racket. Track 2:[54:38] Yeah, you haven't read it. It's pretty it's pretty quick read Yeah. Fuck, yeah, I got a lot of what was going on during this time in this record. It felt very like, if I closed my eyes and listened to this record and I had no idea when it was made, I would have been like, 2003, 2005, somewhere in there. And not just because of the music itself, but yeah, because the content of it was just But this is another one that has drumsticks sound, putting down the drumsticks at the end. So this is another one. Yeah. This is the second song that uses a slide too, so I'm not a big fan of the slide, but It's hard to not enjoy it when it's placed properly. And a song, if it's done well. So I think this song does a good job. Track 3:[55:43] I mean, sometimes there's a time and a place. I don't know. It's more of a historical feature to guitar playing for me. I can't imagine some new song that would really enjoy that's featuring a slide. Track 1:[55:58] Well, that's why I was so strange that Vaccination Scar was the first single. Especially when Heaven is a Better Place Today is such a banger to open the record. Yeah, why yeah Don't know. Don't know. I mean it wasn't it wasn't having this place better place today Wasn't a single at all. The singles were vaccination scar. It can't be Nashville every night and then Gus Was the third single which is like pretty ambitious for a band to release that as a, single Yeah are gonna get that. That's right, that's right. Sothey're well past giving a fuck about trying to use singles to bring people in. Yeah, yeah. Track 3:[56:46] Which, how wonderful. Track 1:[56:48] How wonderful, right? Track 3:[56:49] How wonderful. Track 1:[56:50] They're just doing it for art's sake. Track 2:[56:51] Freeing. Track 1:[56:53] Yeah. Track 3:[56:54] I mean, I have a close cousin of mine who plays in a band here in Portland, I'll give him a quick plug, 40 feet tall. And they're super fun. And they just hit it so hard and they have a few total fuck it songs and they do covers every once in a while. They're courageous in their art, which I love, but it's one of those things also that not everybody gets. Sometimes I think maybe the hip missed some listeners in the USA because fucking half Half the countries are dipshits. Track 2:[57:35] You know what, and Tim, I don't disagree with you on there too, but I will say one thing too, just being from America and now not living there, and I know you've lived in Russiafor for some time too, Tim, but. I think the difference with Russia and the United States, and this is somebody who hasn't lived in Russia, but there's somebody who's also lived outside the United States. I think America is the most, probably the most propagandized country in the world that doesn't know it's being propagandized. Like at least in Russia, you're like, yeah, this is all bullshit, but we just kind of go along with it anyway. The United States, like people actually believe like when they watch like FoxNews or MSNBC, They actually believe the shit they're seeing on TV. And so when I think about, like both the left and the right, when I think about a band like this, I think like Americans attention span is like that of a fucking housefly. They couldn't appreciate this fucking band if they had a gun to their head. Could be. Most couldn't, dude. They just couldn't. Track 3:[58:42] Could be. Track 2:[58:42] It's just like, and so I think the hip probably just got like, fucking, why are we going to waste our time on these fucking dickheads this was like i said this was a fucking era ofmaroon five and britney spears you know yeah i mean jenny do you have to put explicit lyrics or explicit content on all of these because i just realize i'm dropping a few f-bombs oh yeahyeah okay okay yeah it's and on the old podcast on fully and completely we got a few comments that we swore too much oh really yeah yeah Yeah, Greg and I were like, oh, what thefuck. It was Sam Elliott, and he was drinking a beer, and he was like, do you have to swear so much, dude? Track 3:[59:23] It was all the Toby Keith fans who were like, yeah, I still don't like the hip. Track 1:[59:29] Well, we move next into a real banger, coming out of that moody section with New Orleans is beat and you're everywhere. And we go into as makeshift as you are, or as makeshift as we are. What did you vibe on that one, Pete? Track 2:[59:49] So this song comes on right when I put the quarters into the pool table and I push the slide in and those balls drop and I'm just racking it up. Racking up a game of pool. That's what this song is for me. Track 3:[1:00:06] That's fucking beautiful. Track 2:[1:00:08] Popping a cold Coors Light. There's some really low tone. This is another song and this record really opened up my eyes because I feel like I've been a bit of a fucking Rob Baker fanboy. I'll cop to that. Track 1:[1:00:26] No. Track 2:[1:00:27] Last couple of pods, but Paul Langlois is a fucking solid guitar player, dude. You don't notice it unless you look to it. As a matter of fact, one of the things I was thinking of on this song... And also this week and I was watching some live hit videos and I challenge anybody in the community to do this. Listen to a song or and or watch a live recording a live, you know, performance. Watch it five times and each time focus on the instrument of the person you're focusing on and listen to them play their instrument. It is fucking cool. And I did that a number of times with Paul Aigloire. I've done it many times with Rob Baker more than I care to admit. Track 3:[1:01:25] But no, Paul- Are you having dreams about him? Track 2:[1:01:29] No, no, no, I'm making wisecracks. But it's easy to, it's easy to, the focus to just go right to gourd when the chorus hits or he does some fucking amazing shit. But if you really focus on the individual instruments, you will see how fucking polished these musicians are. Track 3:[1:01:48] Yeah, super pro. Track 2:[1:01:49] And then one line that stuck out to me, I love the bridge in the song. I love the harmonies when they all come in together because it

Reddit poster recounts role as a molecular biologist for a national security contractor in a program to study Exo-Biospheric-Organisms (EBO) “I believe that every human being has the right to know the truth” “The grey skin that is often described in folklore is in fact a biosynthetic film which, likely, serves to protect the EBO from a hostile environment.” Interview with Ronald SeCoy, Dayton, Ohio, April 24, 2006 recounts doctor's experience at Wright-Patterson AFB “in the presence of three command structure Generals” “there was an autopsy going on…a body on the table” “on the tables were two dead alien beings” “the stench was unbelievable” “eye was more like an optical instrument” "didn't have sex organs” "they had a very pale complexion” “this isn't like the regular military… I was threatened.”   #LindaMoultonHowe #Earthfiles #CITD — For more incredible science stories, Real X-Files, environmental stories and so much more.

All links: https://linktr.ee/theaustinjadams Apparel: Https://antielite.club Newsletter: https://austinadams.substack.com   ----more---- Full Transcription  The Adams archive.   Hello, you beautiful people and welcome to the Adams Archive. My name is Austin Adams and thank you so much for listening. Today on today's agenda is a ton of different topics that are out there from the last week. The first one being Donald Trump was at the U F C event over the weekend, which was probably one of the biggest cards of the year, and he had an interesting interaction with Joe Rogan, which we will attempt to break down. Although I'm not very good at reading lips, I will give it my best. After that, we are going to take a look at an article that's coming from Fox News which is that the Marine Corps is going without a confirmed leader for the first time in over 164 years, and we'll talk about what that means. Then we're going to look at the disgrace. Dr. Larry Nassar, who if you recall, was the disgusting gymnastics coach of the US Olympic team and sexually assaulted. Like, I'm pretty sure it was like hundreds of girls. So he got stabbed and we will celebrate that. And then moving on, we will talk about the movie, the Sound of Freedom. So we discussed that I think two, two or so episodes ago. We, we went into the trailer of that. Now that it has been released, there's been all this hype around it and some news companies throwing a bunch of shade which is a, a kind of a weird thing to do to something raising such positive awareness to such a horrific thing. But we'll talk about who those news stations were. It may be why they were doing that, cuz it might start to make a little bit more sense. Other things in the news is that miss Netherlands was now Mr. Netherlands because it was crowning a trans woman, Ricky, Valerie Coley. So we'll look at that potentially if we get to it. And then one of the breaking events that has been going on here is that the Biden, department of Justin, department of Justin. I wonder if there's a guy named Justin in the Department of Justice Biden's, department of Justice indicts, a whistleblower who alleged alleged that the Biden family was involved in bribery schemes. Could you imagine that? And then, We will go into the video that surfaced about that individual. And last but not least, the longer you're here, the deeper we get. Rogan posted a Reddit thread from the Reddit aliens sub Reddit, which has the title of, from the late two thousands to the mid 2000 and tens. I worked as a molecular biologist for a national security contractor in a program to study exo biospheric organisms or ebos. I will share with you a lot of information on the subject. Feel free to ask questions or ask for clarification. We're talking about aliens, folks, so this is a very long thread. I don't know if we'll read all of it, but I will get it summarized for you and maybe just maybe, depending on how interesting it is, we will but pretty wild. So all of that and more. So stick around again. The longer you stick around, the deeper we go. All right, so let's go ahead and the first thing I need you to do is go ahead and hit that subscribe button. Leave a five star review, head over to the ck We did send out this week's podcast companion from last episode. So head over there, Austin Adams dot sub stack.com. You get all the links, all the videos, all the articles that we're discussing here. And yeah, you can keep up to date with me and what, what's going on. So Austin Adams dot sub stack.com. Leave a five star review, hit the subscribe button and let's jump into it.   The Adams archive.  All right, the very first app article on today's episode. It's going to be that Donald Trump made an appearance at UFC two 90 in Las Vegas, and the arena went absolutely wild. And we'll see if we can get some audio on this clip here for you guys, because as soon as he walks out now, something that I've discussed on this, right? I threaded through Instagram's threads instead of Tweeted. It doesn't sound as good as Tweeted to be honest. But something I threaded was that it's pretty wild that meanwhile, while Joe Biden is fumbling around a beach, not knowing which way is to the water we have Donald Trump at a U F C event, cage side, getting, you know, high fives from almost every single fighter that won their fights getting praises from the entire audience, going wild when he's out there. It's pretty crazy to see, but what, if not the single best PR for any president ever is being ringside at every UFC event. Like, could you imagine? People would, people would say, Ooh, there we go. What people would say if Vladimir Putin was at all the MMA fights, like, that is a power move, son. So here it is. Let's go ahead and listen to this clip of him walking up. We'll see if it's, if it's too loud, we'll cut it, but here we go. This is Donald Trump walking out to the U F C F. Two Kid Rock. That's amazing. American Badass. Oh my gosh, that's incredible. High fiving everybody in the audience. Blue suit, red tie, yellow hair coming in and just everybody goes Wild Z and ZZ Top. All right, there you go. There's his walkup song if probably one of the most fitting walkup songs in the UFC and he walks out with Dana White here as we'll. See. Oh, we got the man's here. As you might expect for International Fight Week, a lot of people are in the building. But no one needs more security. From the former president of the United States, obviously a really good friend of Dana White. Oh my word. I mean, listen, he's a massive, massive fight fighter, and that just shows how big this event is. Donald Trump has loved the fights for a long time. He's often at Madison Square Garden for the International Fight Week. He has to show up, show his support he has done from since day one. It's good to see him here. Dall, oh, it's no surprise that this man is here because this is the only thing that stayed open in all of sports during some of the darkest times. Glad he's here. All right, let's go. Listen to how excited they all are, and imagine if that was Joe Biden just, you know, randomly walking through the crowd, not knowing which seat was his. Meanwhile he's getting a shout out from literally everybody. And then he had a peculiar interaction with Joe Rogan, so Donald Trump at the UFC event over the weekend. Lock's eyes with Joe Rogan shakes his hand in what must have been one of the most intense handshakes ever between these guys who just shook hands for about 25 seconds and exchange some words. So I'm gonna give you my best idea of what's being said here. Now, we don't know exactly what was said. Now hopefully there's somebody who can read some lips that can actually figure it out. But here's what I got for you. Donald Trump walks up to him and goes to shake his hand. Now, when the video comes in, as it starts to play here, All right. So Donald Trump goes up, it's mid handshake. Donald Trump's, you know, going, you're the man. It seems like, you know, you're doing great stuff, you know, and it seems like he's saying something about how they should do something together. Like, I should get on your podcast. We should have a conversation. Somebody that I saw said that they believe that he said that we should have a conversation, just not, just doesn't even have to be on the podcast, just together. And so could we have a Joe Rogan Donald Trump podcast? It seems more likely now than ever after Donald Trump was at the U F C event, shaking hands with Joe Rogan and having this interaction. Pretty cool. Hopefully that happens because that would be the world's most watched podcast of all time. Could you imagine Joe, Joe Biden getting on Joe Rogan's podcast? Like that would be the most boring ass conversation you could ever imagine. Literally, everybody who watches Joe Rogan's podcast would probably boycott the episode because it would be so irritating, annoying, and, and, and like just sad to watch if Donald, if Donald Trump went on Joe Rogan, it would be the single most watched episode in history of any podcast ever for now and the future. Very likely. So anyways, that was pretty cool. Thought that was awesome. What a power move by Donald Trump and his PR team and you know, hopefully we see a Donald Trump, Joe Rogan podcast as they just had this respectful interaction where neither seemed to want to let go of the handshake first. It was pretty cool to see. All right, moving on now, the next article that we're gonna talk about here, and we'll touch on this briefly, it says, the Marine Corps is without confirmed leadership for the first time in 164 years. And this comes from Fox News, where it says that the US Marine Corps does not have a confirmed leader for the first time in 164 years. Following Marine Corps's Commandant, general David Berger's relinquish of Command Ceremony held Monday and Berger's. Or Berger's private retirement ceremony at the relinquish of command ceremony at the Marine Corpse Barracks in Washington, DC General. Eric Smith, the assistant Commandant of the Marine Corpse, took over as acting commandant. President Biden had nominated Smith to lead the service in May, and Smith is expected to serve as the acting commandant, but also stay in his role as Assistant Commandant. How does that work without a second? Com in command due to the hold. The last time the Marines were without a confirmed leader was 1859. Following the death of Commandant Archibald Henderson Senator Tuberville, Republican from Alabama is blocking more than a two 50. 250 fast tracked military promotions in the Senate over the Pentagon's post OBS abortion policy established early the earlier this year. The Pentagon's new policy pays for the travel and time off of service members that they must take to receive abortions if the state where they are stationed does not allow the procedure. What. How about No. How about take one of your 30 days of fricking paid time off buddy, or don't and don't kill your baby defense secretary Lloyd Austin. The Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman General Mark Milley have both called Tuberville hold a national security concern without calling Tuberville. Oh, you mean to kill Americans? Just like all the babies. Without calling Tuberville out directly, Austin said his hold is becoming a readiness issue and called on the Senate to confirm these military leaders smooth and timely, timely transitions of confirmed leadership are central to the defense of the United States and the full strength of the powerful fighting force in hi the most powerful fighting force in history. Berger agreed saying in his remarks, we need the Senate to do their job so we can have a sitting commandant that's appointed and confirmed now. I'm not for abortion in any way, shape, or form. I absolutely do not think that there's any reason at all the military should pay for you to go on leave, to go get an abortion, or for your wife to go get an abortion or for the stripper that you met, you know, right outside of base to go get an abortion. I don't think that we should pay for that. I think that you should pay for that. Then you definitely shouldn't get extra leave for it. But I also don't think that that should hold up somebody getting put into the highest position of command in the Marine Corps. That seems a little bit crazy that those two things are intertwined. Interesting, but definitely don't agree with that and definitely don't agree with them paying for that. But it seems like there should be some sort of, you know, other way of making that statement. But who am I? Especially when we're in one of the most contentious time periods in history. Tuberville placed a hold on approving these denominations by unanimous consent this past February. If Secretary Austin wants to change the law, she should go through Congress. Tuberville told Fox News Digital Tuberville had a 10 minute phone call with Austin back in March, according to the Senator's office. Yeah, kind of crazy. See what people have to say? His finest. Finally, Congress is taking back some of its authority. We have legal proceedings in place that should be followed and not worked around or set aside for convenience or fast tracking. If a law is wrong or needs to be changed, Congress is the branch of government that has the power to do it. Interesting. That's the first comment and most liked comment. Somebody else said, Hmm, nah, nothing good there. All right. Let's see. Says this administration is not following the law. The senator is using a legal means to hold them accountable. Follow the law Biden. Hmm. Interesting. Doesn't make sense to me. Anyways, moving on in probably the most positive news of this week, because there's all this negative news going around. What I would say is the, the most positive news of this week that I've heard of personally, is that Dr. Larry Nassar was stabbed several times, and I think that's the most positive news of the week because he's a gross, sexually abusive pedophile who deserves to get stabbed because he was the one who sexually abused hundreds, if I'm recalling correctly, the amount, hundreds of U s A gymnastics gymnasts through over 300 female gymnasts at the club that he was sexually assaulting up to 300 of them at Michigan State University and at his home in Holton, Michigan. Yeah. Something worse should have happened to him other than just stabbing him. Unfortunately, he's alive. Larry Nassar. It says this is coming from the post-millennial, says, Larry Nassar has reportedly suffered multiple stab wounds after an altercation broke out in a federal prison in Florida. Two people familiar with the incident said Nasser had been stabbed in the back and the chest, but that he was in stable condition. Unfortunately, according to the associate press in 2018, Nassar was sentenced up to 175 years in federal prison after being found guilty of sexually abusing up to 300 female gymnasts at John Gutter's, twin Stars USA Gymnastics Club, Michigan State University, and at his home in Holt, Michigan. The attack apparently happened Sunday at the United States Penitentiary Coleman in Florida. Nassar had relocated to Florida after being assaulted in Tucson, Arizona, where he had previously been being held. Nasser admitted to sexually assaulting athletes when he was employed at Michigan State University and U USA Gymnastics, which trains Olympians. Additionally, Nassar, who pleaded guilty to, he also pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography when victims were giving impact statements in 2018. Several claims that he told that they had told adults around them what kind of abuse they were experiencing, including coaches and athletic trainers, but the complaints went unreported. The report noted that over a hundred women, including Olympic gold medalists, Simone Biles, had collectively attempted to get 1 billion from the government after it was revealed. The F b I had failed to do anything about Nassar when the allegations were initially brought to light in 2015. It was not until a year later in 2016 that the Michigan State University police arrested him. Michigan State was accused of missing opportunities to stop Nassar, which resulted in the university agreeing to pay 500 million to more than 300 women and girls who were assaulted by the sports doctor. Additionally, U USA Gymnastics and the Olympic US. Paraplegic committee or paralympic committee, sorry, agreed to that, to a 380 million settlement. There are more than 150 victims who spoke or submitted statements during the seven day hearing. More than four years ago, there were even a father, and there was even a fa, a father to good Lord. What's wrong with my eyes? There was even a father upon having the opportunity to speak, attempted to attack Nassar in the courtroom. Now, if you remember this, this guy walked up to the stand and goes, judge May, may you just give me five minutes in the locker room with this guy. Deja goes, no. How about one minute he says, and the judge says No, and then he runs after this guy with no plan of attack whatsoever and gets tackled by a bunch of police. Here we go. I would ask you to, as part of this sentencing, to grant me five minutes in a locked room in this demon. I would you do that? I that is not yes or no? No, sir. Would you gimme one minute, you know that I can't do that. That's not how I, well, I'm gonna have to stay, stay, stay. Stop. Good Lord, I want that. One of these cops should took the opportunity to accidentally shoot Nassar. Give one minute. Had to be quicker. Dad. Gotta be quicker. Gotta have a plan of attack too. Relax, relax. Take it easy. You know, good show of you know, emotion. Sure it's crystal clear, I'm sure, and I'm sure the, you cannot behave like this. Two, two days that he probably spent in there be before, before being let go. You know, every father ever probably wishes that they would, you know, have that opportunity who ran into something like that. So I just, just can't imagine what that man is going through. And the, you know, when you're the dad and you're, you are, is to protect your child. You know, the lengths that you would go to and the things that you would do are probably unbelievable. So, you know, a good showing of, of emotion there. At least maybe not the right attempt, maybe not the right approach. Maybe sit and wait for them to take him outside after, you know, or between sessions or, you know, at least be a little bit quicker to the draw there. Cuz he was pretty slow, not not getting past the, the police there. And there you have it so that, that. Is the first round of what is happening to Naar Nassar. And hopefully there's a second round. I guess he got beat up in the other prison, so maybe third round. We'll, we'll finish it. Cuz what a disgusting man this person is and, and it, we're finding this more consistently where it is. Doctors in sports medicine. Who are taking advantage of underage athletes. There was a physician in Michigan who was responsible for a similar situation to a bunch of underage hockey players that I actually, you know am familiar with the teams and, and stuff that this guy was involved with. And he, he was indicted on, I believe almost, it was at least 80, 80 or so, it was 18 or 81, 1 of the two. Vast difference, but doesn't make him much of a difference that cuz you're just as big of a piece of shit and deserve to get, you know, what this guy had coming to him. All right, moving on. There's your positive news for the weak folks and in other news cnn Now, if you recall, the sound of freedom, right? The sound of freedom being the, the movie. That was done by Tim Baard, who owns Operation Underground Railroad and Operation Underground Railroad is a nonprofit organization which goes and saves children from underground sex trafficking. There's been over 2000 children that have been saved by Operation Underground Freedom or Underground Railroad. And the Sound of Freedom is a retelling of the story of how Tim Ballard got into saving these children. Now, I, I personally have not been able to get to the theater yet. I have three children. So sometimes it's difficult to go sit in a theater and watch something that isn't animated. So but my plan is to go watch this for sure. 100%. You should go see it. If you know somebody take 'em with you may, especially if they, you know, are, are skeptical about the entire, you know, trafficking of children thing or this really will shed light on it. I've, I've spoke to several people who have gone and seen it. They said that it's one of the most impactful, if not the most impactful movies that I've ever seen. It's supposedly pretty dark, but how is it not, you know, it, it's a dark world and this is one of the darkest parts of it. And so to see that somebody, anybody is shedding light on this. And so there, there was some, some conversations. Now I had several people reach out to me after the last podcast cause I posted about it. I've posted about the sound of freedom. And there was some skepticism around Tim Ballard, which might be an, an interesting episode in and of itself. But there was some skepticism around Tim Ballard where there was allegations that Tim Ballard had, you know, in, in his operations, been accused of inappropriate behavior, which these guys are going undercover to do these things. And generally in, in order to get in the club to save these children, probably have to say some things that you wouldn't normally say unless you're in character trying to get into one of these places. So that was one of the allegations is he like to touch some girl's waist or butt or something inappropriately when he was trying to convince people that he was a part of. You know, it was part of their crowd and trying to get in there so he can actually save these people. Some of the other allegations were that he was taking some of the, a lot of the money that he was getting in from Operation Underground Railroad and it wasn't going to the right things. And that he was making a lot of money and that he was using it as a, you know, to help promote the Latter Day Saints, which I guess he's a part of. And so there's a, there's some little, there's some murkiness to this. However, I would say in light of anything and everything that I've seen on this, and I've dove deep, I've talked to people that I know that were a part of some of these, you know, organizations and, and have some little bit of know, know within the community. And I tend to agree with what they said, with, which was essentially that if, if anything that Tim Ballard did that made him seem somewhat dishonorable, cannot be overshadowed by the outcome of his honorable actions, right? So even if, let's say he's making a lot of money off of this, even if he is. Had to put himself in precarious situations and act out of character to get into these places, to save these children. I would take that all day in order for these children to be saved. Right? In 2000 is nothing, but it's something, right? Compared to the 2 million that he claims are, are out there right now that need to be saved. It's a drop in the bucket, but it's a drop in that bucket. So that's my thoughts on that. So do your own digging, do your own research. There was a lot of people that came out against him, Ballard, and I just didn't see anything credible enough to overshadow the credibility of the positive things that he was doing. So there's my thoughts on that. Now, what is dishonorable? Is that c n. And I believe it was, let's see, there was, there was three different news networks that came out and spoke out against the Sound of Freedom, calling it a Q Anon conspiracy, telling people they had worms in their brain if they liked this movie or if they thought this was real, or, you know, you, and then CNN came out and had a clip that said Hollywood, let's see, Hollywood Q Anon promoters promoters, Hollywood Q Anon promoters movie is hit at box office. That is not a full sentence, guys. So CNN had Mike Rothchild, nonetheless, a part of the Rothchild family on here to tell us that, oh, these people are just conspiracy theorists. Don't worry about what my family's doing in the background here of the, these, you know, shadow organizations that are very well proven to be true. So here's a clip of C Nnn. And you seem pretty familiar with him because he doesn't really hide his association with this real wild plot that that involves, you know, drinking the blood of children and things like that. No, he doesn't hide it at all. And you have a lot of people who are in this world of QAN who say, oh, they don't know what that is. They've never heard of it. They're just asking questions. With somebody like Jim Cavel, he is openly embracing it. He's openly using its catchphrases and its concepts. He's speaking at QAN conventions. And this film is being marketed to either specific Q Anon believers or to people who believe all of the same tenets as Q Anon, but claim they don't know what it is. And the Sound of freedom does focus on a real issue of sex trafficking. But that theme, it, it's sort of like that kernel of truth that feeds the Q Anon conspiracy theory. Tell us how those two things work together. Sure. And the most durable and the most believable conspiracy theories are not entirely false. There's something in them that is true, and the rest of it is false. But the believers point to the one true thing and they say, oh, you don't believe that this particular thing is true in terms of child trafficking. We know trafficking is real. We know it has real victims. No one is denying that. But these films are created out of moral panics. They're created out of bogus statistics. They're created out of. Fear. And with something like Sound of Freedom, it specifically is looking at QID on concepts of these child trafficking rings that are run by the high level elites and only people like Tim Ballard and only people like Jim Veel, and by extension only people like the ticket buyer can help bring these trafficking rings down. So there's a very participatory element. You're not just going to see a movie, you're just killing two hours on a hot day. You are helping bring down these, these pedophile rings and save children. Now it's not true. But it's a very comforting, and it's a very warm feeling to have. So I want you to listen to how they are programming this, because if you want an example of text book Abusive gaslighting, here it is, c n n coming out and saying that anybody who believes that high level people are are sex trafficking children or involved in adrenal chrome processing or anything to do with adrenal chrome. But really, let's just focus on the trafficking portion to believe that anybody is involved in, at a high level, these billionaires who, who have an appetite for sex trafficking and children to believe that you must be a qan conspiracy theorist. How stupid are they? Well, isn't this the same C n N who was reporting on Jeffrey Epstein less than three years ago? You know, the billionaire involved in high level trafficking that visited the White House 17 times, along with plenty of people, including Bill Gates, including almost a, a, an entire roster of celebrities from Hollywood that flew to his island, that he had children trafficked to the same cnn Who reported on that? Oh, you wanna know what else? The same CNN who had not won, but two c Nnn producers who were involved in and brought to justice over pedophilia. Jeff Zucker being one of them, who convinced a mother to fly her child out and abuse her with him, fly her child to him, and just reading the text messages that that man sent to this mother. Makes your skin crawl. Meanwhile, CNN wants to gaslight you and tell you that you're stupid, tell you you're a conspiracy theorist and, and muddy the waters with this Q Anon term that they haven't brought up Now in a year or two until it's convenient, right? Just like he said here. Oh, that there's, oh, what a, what a silly idea that there's celebrities out there and billionaires who would sex traffic children. How stupid are these people? Bogus statistics. They're created out of fear. And with something like Sound of Freedom, it specifically is looking at QID on concepts of these child trafficking rings that are run by the high level elites. And only people like Tim Ballard and only people like that are buddies, high level elites, and only people like the ticket buyer can save them. Buddy, this is real. We all agree that this is real. Now the last person that you could have come on to CNN to convince me that child human trafficking isn't real is a Rothchild, but that's what CNN brought on air to try to convince you that anybody who liked this movie or that liked the idea that was shedding light on one of the grossest, the most disgusting, most egregious things in human history that's being done today, right now is fake, isn't real. Oh, it's a conspiracy. Oh, maybe he has a kernel of truth in there, but there's not high level elites who are trafficking children. You mean like the guy who died in jail, who is a billionaire who was connected with probably half of this guy's family and buddies and all of Hollywood and at the White House 17 times who Bill Clinton flew to his house on an island where he trafficked children to. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's, that's the one. That's the conspiracy that everybody's stupid for believing in. Thank you so much, Mike Rothschild. Now on another positive note. This is absolutely shedding light on child human trafficking. It is one of the, the top box office movies that there's been this year, and people are, are choking up about this. People want to do something about it. People are becoming aware of this, and the sound of freedom has now triggered people to have more awareness on the disgusting people that are out there, that are predators towards children. And this video I'm about to show you is a perfect example of it. There was a mom, Who is at the mall and it says, stop what you're doing and make this Petto famous. This brave girl just done just got done watching the Sound of Freedom, and the next day while at the mall, noticed a predator taking pictures of two young girls bent over at the mall. She then confronts the pedophile while video recording him and makes him delete the photos on his phone. These people are everywhere. He could have just been a petto or he could have just been scoping out his next sex trafficking victim, and he's absolutely right. Here's the video. Yesterday I posted that I went to go see the movie Sound of Freedom, and it was an amazing movie. I recommend everybody go watch that. It really, really opens your eyes about what really goes on behind the scenes and something that is so prevalent here in the us, but definitely recommend you go see it. But today something happened that I really just did not expect at all and it. Relates to this movie. Today I went to the mall to go pick up something to eat. Me and my mom, we went over there really quick to do some shopping and we went to Auntie Ann's and my mom already got outta the wine. She already paid, and I stayed back to grab some napkins and some straws and things like that. And as I grabbed it and I was walking there was a man that was behind the line and he was taking out his phone to take a picture. And I noticed he had his flash on and it was pointed towards this bench where these two young girls were at. And I decided, so I noticed that his flash was on, so I stood right in front of the camera and I was like, you know what? I don't know if he's ignoring me or seeing me. So I went, I decided to go behind him and he looked towards my mom. He's like, oh no, it's my daughter. It's my daughter. So he sticks out his phone again and starts taking a picture of this young girl. The girl was with her friend and she was laying her head down on her friend's lap, and her behind was sticking out. So her body was, her face was towards the seat or the bench. And so her whole behind was out and she was in a short black, she was in a short black dress. Let's see if we can get to the part we were just at towards this bench where these two young girls were at, and I just was, was on. So I stood right in front of the camera and I was like, you know what? I don't know if he's ignoring me. You're seeing me. So I went, I decided to go behind him and he looked towards my mom. He's like, oh no, it's my daughter. It's my daughter. So he sticks out his phone again and starts taking a picture of this young girl. The girl was with her friend, and she was laying her head down on her friend's lap, and her behind was sticking out. So her body was, her face was towards the seat or the bench. And so her whole behind was out, and she was in a short black skirt. And this girl, I would say she's in between the ages of probably like 13, 15, she looked super young and he kept saying like, oh, that's my daughter now that's my daughter. So I was like, okay, I'm not gonna say anything yet because I don't know what the situation is. So, so what ends up happening is she confronts this man at the mall, makes the man pull out his phone. I go and I go up to these young girls that got after confirming that this man was not their father, in fact, and then goes to the man, confronts him about what he was doing, which she then videotapes and then makes the man delete the photos. Now this woman is a badass. If we had more people like this woman out there, there would be far less predators out there because they are pre predatory on children for a reason, and they're scared of getting confronted with people who are as as big as them, as old as them, as mature as them. They're cowards, they're pieces of trash, and they know it. And if enough people have their eyes out, not only for their children, but for other people's children like this woman did, then this would happen less often because people know that they would be confronted by people. Let's continue. Anyway, I go up to the young girl and I'm like, Hey, is that guy right there? Really? I try to like make it not as big of a deal, but like I was saying, I didn't wear on a makeup big deal of it because you know, this girl might be scared. I don't know what it is, but I'm like, Hey, is that guy your dad? And she's like, no, why? And so she confronts this man. And now as we go to that portion of the video, I'll talk you through it a little bit, but it's taken a second to buffer here. So give it one moment, but good on this girl. She can't be over 30. She looks like she's probably like 26, 27. And for her to confront this man in the way that she did is amazing. And like I said, if we have more people doing this type of thing, less people would be proud that there is against children because they know that the microscope is on them. And that's what this movie does. The Sound of Freedom brings awareness to this brings awareness to the fact that there are real predators out there, brings awareness to the trafficking is real. And you should absolutely be keeping that in mind around your own children, around other people's children. I've seen videos of this woman who was like working a stand that looked like in like Mexico or Brazil and this young child was being targeted by this guy on a scooter. And she goes into this little shop and the woman is very nice and starts talking to the girl and realizes what's about to happen as she sees this guy kind of walking around and prevents the child from being trafficked. 100%. This man was there to steal this child and. Cannot imagine the horrific things that it would've happened. But if we just need more eyes on this, guys, the more eyes we have on it, the less, the less things like this will happen, right? There will be immediate friction, there will be immediate repercussions to these people acting in the, this egregious manner. So again, good on this lady, good on her. This woman good on her for confronting this person. We need more people like her and the video still will not buffer. So I don't know what's going on with Twitter, but in the spirit of that, let's move on. The Netherlands, crowned Miss Netherlands to someone who is not a miss, but a Mister Misses Netherlands crowns trans woman Ricky, Valerie Coley. In other words, a man to be. Miss Netherlands and what is absolutely the most disgusting virtue signal ever, like literally a, and she is. There's other people around this man who are far better looking, far better looking. It goes on, it says, coli of Dutch and indigenous malen descent is from the city of Breta. Between Rotter Dam and Antwerp. Thank you for that very specific outline. She said she wants to be a voice and a male, or a, a male, a, a role model for young women and queer people. As someone who didn't feel supported after coming out as transgender at a young age, she said she wants to leave those stories of suffering in the past. Coley won't be the first trans woman to compete for the Miss Universe. Crown Angela Ponce became the pageant's first trans contestant when she represented Spain in 2018. The 71 year old competition first began allowing transgender contestants in 2012. Well, weren't you ahead of the curve? More trans women have been competing in the preliminary pageants in recent years. In 2021, miss Nevada Cata, Luna Enriquez became the first trans contestant at a Miss u s A pageant. Transwomen and activist Daniela Oroyo Gonzalez will compete for this year's Miss Universe, Puerto Rico. Title next month, Thai Business Mogul. Annie Jra Jupa, no idea how to say that name. A trans activist who is also transgender, bought the Miss Universe organization last year. She has said that she's, he has said that she's committed to advancing the organization as an inclusive platform and wants to transform the brand for the next generation of non women. For Miss Universe, you idiot. I call it a women's empowerment competition, but really it's just de-legitimizing femininity and what women are in general by allowing men with penises to beat the women at their own event. Which is just unbelievable. Like how, how far do we take this, right? Like, of course a man's gonna whoop some woman's ass in the swimming competition if they both train. That's just how that works. But now we've gotten into this contorted, weird secondary universe where men think they, they can actually compete with women. When it comes to feminine beauty, like, I'm sorry, not gonna happen. You are a man. You will always be a man, regardless of how much makeup you put on, regardless of how much chicken cutlets you put in your bra, regardless of how much YouTube contouring classes that you watch, you will always be a man. Until you invert your penis and then have it shut on you. Like that's one of the most horrible things. And, and okay, every time we touch on the trans stuff, I feel the need to talk about this cuz I don't want to be a hateful person. I'm not trying to be hateful, but I think is hateful, is this egregious act of acting like men taking over women's spaces is good for women. There's a reason, there's the W N B A, there's a reason that there is Miss Universe, right? There is Mr. Olympia. You want to go be in a male beauty pageant, start running a hundred fucking grams of trend and get huge like, like the rest of the, the guys out there competing for male beauty pageants. Like this is not the way. And I, I believe that the people that are trans, that believe that they are the other opposite sex are mentally. Ill and, and should be treated as such. And I don't think treated as such as like, oh, you're a bad person. No, I think treated as such as if you are dealing with something on the inside that I can't even fathom. Now that's a portion of it, right? A portion of them are mentally ill. Now a portion of them are seeking attention and that's the Dylan Mulvaney of the world, right? But there are some, I'm sure, very good, very kind, very nice be beautifully beautiful hearts that are trans. But when you try to overtake women's spaces, when you try to treat, make me use your pronouns as if I have to act out your mental illness for you to make you feel okay in the world. I'm just not gonna do it. And I think that anybody who, who is in that world, I. Should seek help. And I hope they get the help that they need because I'm sorry, but you're never gonna be a woman or you're never gonna be a woman who turns into a man or a man that turns into a woman. That's just not gonna happen. And that's the way the universe dealt you. Your cards, and I'm sorry you don't like them, but a lot of poor people who grew up poor wished they could have grown up as the child of Donald Trump. But it's not gonna happen either, no matter how much you pretend it, right? So it's like you should address the thing that is causing you the mental anguish. Don't mask it with fake boobs and lip injections and address like eventually that's gonna lead to heartache and eventually it's gonna lead to you getting all of these surgeries that we don't know the implications of that are eventually going to harm you long-term physically, like getting on hormone replacement therapy, you know, getting estrogen injections, when you should be getting testosterone replacement therapy. It's like we don't know the implications of this, and I'm sorry that you're going through that, but that that is not my burden to bear your mental illness through my speech. And that's, that's what we saw too. More recently, Michigan in, in probably the craziest attempt at passing a law, which has now passed the House of Michigan, Michigan has has imp, has started to push the process along, which again has passed the house. This isn't just like one person trying to act like this is normal. This has passed The house, which is a bill in Michigan, is now saying that if you misgender somebody that you're gonna get a $10,000 fine and a felony. Well, what I would have to say to that Gretchen Whitmer, sir, is that you cannot police speech. You cannot tell me who I any sounds that has to come out of my mouth. You don't get that opportunity. And if I want to call you a man, which in certain lighting you look like, or I wanna call some random trans person knocking down all the shelves in the blockbuster or, or the GameStop, if you remember that video, sir, because you are a sir, then I will do so. You're not gonna find anybody for speech. And if this $10,000 fine from Michigan goes to the Supreme Court, just like all of the other bullshit laws that they've tried to pass and eventually get overturned just like Roe v. Wade, that will get overturned too. I'll be the first person to step up and immediately go to a city hall meeting and call Gretchen Whitmore Mann and watch the police try to arrest me for it. Cuz that is the most ridiculous bullshit law with no fundamental founding in their constitution. That is completely against the first amendment that, that, you know, this is exactly what Jordan Peterson fought against, was the, the implementation of laws to strong arm and bully you into utilizing speech that is not accurate for the feelings of other people. Because if we start there, where does it end? Because that's just the beginning. Then where do we go? Right? You get into this, this news speak era, right? You go back to the Orwellian 1984 type control of language that was involved in authoritarianism, the diminishing of words, you're not allowed to say certain things. And that's where it starts. And this is the, this is the Trojan horse, right? And all the people that are like, equality and d, diversity and like, I hear you, but what you don't see is where this is going. What you don't see is that you are a pawn in the game and eventually, like I've said before, the pendulum swings back and eventually it's coming for you, right? You can only divide the masses so many times until eventually you are on the side that you don't like where your speech is being hindered by governing laws. This law is unbelievably crazy and nobody is talking about it. I posted something the other day and, and very little traction that has come of it. Now, I got a good amount of, you know, attention on it from, from my post, but, It needs to become a common topic because this is the first law that I'm aware of that is being implemented in this way in the United States, where we are founded on the freedom of speech founded on the right to say what we want when we want founded on the freedom of press. If I want to write an article for the Detroit Free Press and call Governor Whitmer a man, I will do it because that is my constitutional right. Just watch me if this goes into effect. Crazy. And that's the world where we've gotten to where somebody's going to win a Miss M I s S pageant with a penis between their legs. This world just gets crazier and crazier and crazier. All right, so I don't even feel like reading the article. Maybe I'll have somebody else read it for you. Here you go. Netherlands Crowns. Its first trans. Oh, two year old Dutch model will be the second openly trans. Whoa. That's going fast for you guys, huh? All right. Yeah, let's move on. So the next article that we're gonna talk about here is that the Biden's Department of Justice Indicts a whistleblower, indicts a whistleblower who alleged that the Biden family was involved in bribery schemes. Could you imagine the Department of Justice being weaponized against biden's enemies? No way. Former Israeli army officer and co-director of a Maryland think tank is under federal indictment Tonight, gal Luft is charged with acting as an unregistered foreign agent, trafficking in arms violating US sanctions against Iran. No man. Twitter's having a hard time today, huh? And making false statements to federal agents. So this man came out and alleged that there was a bribery scheme conducted by the Biden family. Now this in the middle of several, several legal actions that are happening between several different entities at this point. He says he was arrested in Cyprus to stop, to stop him from speaking out him from testifying before Congressional Committee. Yep. Crazy. All right, so this man is guilty. This man is guilty. He's guilty of telling the truth, which is that the Biden family is corrupt. The Biden family is in the pocket of foreign entities like China, like Barisma and Ukraine. These, the Ukrainian energy companies, like all of these organizations that came out from the laptop of Hunter Biden, absolutely. This man is guilty of telling the truth. And, and here's the thing, when these things happen, all it does is draw attention to it regarding bribery allegations against the Biden family. Most frustrating about it is that again, you see how powerful the entities that are in power are because of how quickly and easily they shove these things under the rug. There's never been a president ever who's had as many scandals as Joe Biden, and there's also never been such an effort from every government organization at all. That's. Within the government to cover up so many illegal activities by a presidential family in the history of the United States. Name one name, another president that's sitting that has had so many scandals than Joe Biden, including the video that just came out of Joe Biden, a, a wild video of Joe Biden going up to some foreign looking lady at some meeting saying, don't, don't what did he do? Let me, let me tell you something. Let me tell you something. And he goes, smells her, sniffs her on camera and then goes, don't tell your mama what I told you. Like what? You are the creepiest of creepy old men. And I can't imagine just the what type of things that he, this, that Joe. Biden was doing, especially when his own son called him Petto Pete, within his phone, see if we can get this clip to finish out. Lou makes those allegations in a video obtained exclusively by the New York Post I, who volunteered to inform the US government about potential security breach and about compromising information about a man vying to be the next president. I'm now being hunted by the very same PE I think in my life. I ever had such a hard time with Twitter videos, people whom I informed and may have to. He says, I may have to be on the run for the rest of my life for the allegations that I've made. And we see this with what happened to what happened to the We see this every single time. There's a whistleblower with the Biden administration, right? Every single time there's, there's the, the person in the who, they were trying to s like the, the laptop store owner. There's the you know, e every single time the Biden administration finds themself in hot water, they, they weaponize every single piece of the justice system that they have access to, including the very recent text message that we discussed a couple weeks ago, which was that, you know, hunter Biden literally threatening the Chinese company before there was a $5 million. 5 million put into their shell accounts from a Chinese corporation after he's or from a Ukrainian organization after he strong armed the head of Barisma, who then said he had 17 recordings of them. Interesting. So here's the article on that, which says that the Department of Justice has announced multiple indictments against Dr. Gao Luft, the Israeli American co-head of a Maryland think tank who gained notoriety as the missing witness in the investigation of Joe's Biden's corruption. The New York Post recently shared a video of left wherein he broke down the allegations made against Biden, and claimed that he had been arrested to prevent him from testifying to the House Oversight Committee with damning evidence against the first family. Now, long after coming outta the whistleblower left himself has been charged by the Department of Justice for allegedly engaging in multiple serious schemes in involving the Chinese and Iranians, alongside a former high ranking US government official. The charges, including numerous offenses, including failing to register under the Foreign Agent's Registration Act, arms trafficking, Iranian sanctions violations, and making false statements to federal agents while what a reach. The agency explained that Luft had allegedly conspired with others to advance the interest of the People's Republic of China. Oh. Who would've done that as agents of Chinese based principles without registering as foreign agents as required under US law. He supposedly used his position as co-director of the Think tank to recruit and pay the aforementioned government official at the behest of Chinese bosses to publicly support certain policies with respect to China. Hmm. Very interesting. Let's see if we can get the New York Post video if it's not gonna be so shaky for the full thing there. Here's the video. Good day. My name is Dr. Gal Loft. For the past 20 years, I have been the co-director of the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security, a Washington based think tank focused on energy security. For the past 15 years, I've been a resident of Israel. For four years, I was senior advisor to the China Energy Company, cfc at the same time of its dealings with the Biden family. Under normal circumstances, I would be testifying before Congress about my experience with C F C. Sadly, due to circumstances I shall describe here in this video I am forced to tell you this story via video. My ordeal goes back to a fatal decision I made in March of 2019 to share with the US government my knowledge about the Biden family's relations with cfc. As I said, it was in March of 2019, in a two day session at the US Embassy in Brussels. I insisted that the meeting. Take place in March because at the time there were rumors that Joe Biden was planning to run for president. I saw it as my civic duty to alert the government beforehand and give it enough time to probe the issue. I wanna be clear. I'm not a Republican. I'm not a Democrat. I have no political motive or agenda. I did it out of deep concern that if the Bidens were to come to power, the country would be facing the same traumatic Russia collusion scandal. Only this time it was China. Sadly, because of the DOJs coverup. This is exactly what happened. The d o J sent to Brussels, a delegation of six people, two prosecutors from the sudden District of New York, by the names of Daniel Reichental and Catherine Goche. Four F FBI agents. One of them was special agent Joshua Wilson from the Baltimore Field Office, which also happens to cover the state of Delaware. My man's dropping names. You asked yourself why did the government dispatch to Europe? So many people, why six, why not two? The answer is that they knew very well that I'm a credible witness, and that I have insider knowledge about the group and the individuals that be the she the family. Over an intensive two year, two day meeting. I shared my information about the Biden family's financial transactions with CFC, including specific dollar figures. This is a 13 minute video that you can go see. Was name Rob Walker the New York Post YouTube channel. Yet as we now as titled this Missing Biden Corruption case Witness, Dr. Galbo doj, the Whole 21 Details, allegations against President's Family Talk to Walker. But perhaps the most alarming information I revealed was of a MO within the d OJ who shared classified information with Hunter Biden and his Chinese partners. I told the d OJ that Hunter was closely associated with a very senior, retired, retired FBI official who had distinct physical characteristic. He had one eye. One of the FBI agents at the time even told me, you know, that would be very easy for us to find. There aren't that many one-eyed people in the bureau. The information I provided the FBI in March of 2019 was fully corroborated. Nine months later when the famous laptop belonging to Hunter Biden, which contained all the emails and receipts, was handed to the fbi. And guess who seized the laptop from the computer repair shop? It was special agent Joshua Wilson, who was with me in Brussels earlier. In other words, the FBI knew about from me about the Biden CFC deals before they got hold of the laptop, way before they had enough time to investigate the issue, but they didn't. After Brussels, I never heard back from the doj, but instead of showing appreciation for my whistle blowing, I became public enemy number one. Over the past four years, that followed me, my family, my friends, my associates. We were all harassed, intimidated, and finally I was prosecuted. Despite all that on the eve of the 2020 elections, I sent my lawyer to Washington to meet with then acting Deputy Attorney General Mr. Richard Donahue, to ensure he was informed about the information I had given his department in Brussels 19 month earlier. And also to warn him that there may still be a mole within the D O J. Mr. Donahue confirmed to my lawyer that he was aware of my claims, but now we learn from the I R S whistleblower that it was Rich Donahue himself who suspended the investigation. Few weeks earlier on September 4th, 2020, on the ground that it was quote too close to the elections. Finally, in February of this year, I was arrested in Cyprus on an extradition request from the Southern District of New York. Very soon. All right. I'll let you watch that video yourself. If you wanna go find it, I'll put it in the CK Austin Adams do sub stack.com, which will come out late tomorrow after the podcast comes out. But here's an article that kind of outlines what he's talking about with that was looking up while you were listening to that, the one eye F b I agent. And this comes from the New York Post where it says, hunter Biden used FBI Mole named one Eye to tip him off the China probes. It says, hunter Biden has an F B I mole named One Eye who tipped off his Chinese business partners that they were under investigation. According to the Israeli energy expert arrested in Cyprus last month on gun running charges. The House Oversight Committee is investigating the explosive claims that Dr. Gal Ga left the guy. We were just listening to a former Israeli Defense Forces Lieutenant Colonel with deep intelligence ties in Washington and Beijing, who says that he was arrested to stop him from revealing what he knows about the Biden family and FBI corruption details. He told the Department of Justice in 2019. Which he said was ignored. He first made the claims on February 18th on Twitter after being detained at a Cyprus airport as he prepared to board the plane to Israel. I've been arrested in Cyprus and politically motivated extradition request by the us, the US claiming that I'm an arms dealer. It would be funny if it weren't tragic. I've never been an arms dealer. Department of Justice is trying to bury me to protect Joe, Jim and Hunter Biden goes on to say that Luft remains in jail awaiting extradition, which is now just surfaced this or surfaced with this video after all this. This article was in March through his American lawyer, Robert Hanoch. Luft said that he tried four years ago to form the de Depart or to inform the Department of Justice of Chinese State controlled energy company c e, or C E F C, that had paid a hundred thousand dollars a month to President Biden's son Hunter in $65,000 to Joe's brother Jim in exchange for their FBI connections and use of the Biden name to promote China's belt or. Yeah. Belt and Road Initiative around the world. Left. Learned the scheme through his own relationship with hunter's, Chinese business partners, Patrick Ho and yay Ja Ming, chairman of C E F C. From 28 15 to 2018, left organized International Energy conferences in partnership with HO'S Think Tank, the nonprofit Chinese Energy Fund committee, C E F C, a front organization for Y's, C E F C Y confided to left that Hunter had an informant in the FBI or formerly of the Bureau, extremely well-placed, who had paid lots of money to provide sealed law enforcement information. The FBI mole was called One Eye. One Eye told ye that the Southern District of New York has, was investigating him or ho in late 2017, that an Asian and African and a Jewish guy were named on a sealed indictment. Said Heno. Soon after the Tipoff, ye offered Hunter 1 million to be his private counsel and flew to China. Leaving his wife, daughter, son, mother and nanny in his 50 million penthouse in 15 Central 15 Central Park West. He was detained in Shanghai three months later and disappeared. And that's where this all started. All right, so that article that I was just reading again, came from the New York Post and was titled hunter Biden used FBI Mole named One Eye to tip him off to Chinese probes, which was March 22nd, 2023. And now this guy is just resurfacing. And this just broke today. This is breaking news. There's really not a ton of information that came out from this interview. Go listen to it. Go check it out. And just again, like I said, Joe Biden and the h the Biden family are the single largest crime organization to ever hold the White House. So, Bar none. And we're seeing that with back to back to back to back. Things that are coming out from the text message of, of Hunter Biden's strong arming people to the laptop with legitimate claims of him being a pedophile with his own niece. All of the things that have come out with Joe Biden being called Petto Pete by his son. Could you imagine the field day that people would've had if that was Don Jr. Saying that about Donald Trump? Like in all of it's covered up by every news, media corporation, every one of the, the organizations within the government, including the fbi. It's disgusting. All right, now last but not least, last but not least second to last, but not least, let's go with last but not least, let's get into the deep dark side. Of aliens. It says, from 2000, from the late two thousands to the mid 2000 tens. I worked as a molecular biologist for a national security contractor in a program to study exo biospheric organisms. I will share with you a lot of information on the subject. Feel free to ask questions or ask for clarification. This was posted on Reddit five days ago, reposted by Joe Rogan, and then this guy deleted his account. Now it says that it seems like all of my comments are being deleted. I will post answers at the end of the message. I'm gonna move my computer closer to me here so I can actually read it for you guys without the stuttering, like you know, Joe Biden or Feder Fedderman. From the late two thousands to the mid 2000 tens, I worked as a molecular biologist for the National Security Council contractor in program to study exo biospheric organisms or ebos. The aim of the program was to el elucidate the genome and proteome basis for these organisms. Although the study of OBCs has been going on for decades and other programs, the new high throughput DNA sequencing technologies of the late nineties unblocked, stagnant research in this area, since then, several breakthroughs have led to significant advances in our understanding of the genome and protein of these beings. What we've learned so far has enabled us to outline some dis. Disconcerting perspectives about the place of our place in the universe. Briefly, we've discovered that the Ebo genome is a chimera of genomes from our biosphere and from an unknown one. They are artificial, ephemeral, and disposable organisms created for a purpose that still particularly alludes us. I'll be substantiating my statements after a brief introduction. The reason for disclosing these secrets is quite simple. I believe that every human being has the right to know the truth, and that to progress humanity needs to divest itself to a certain or divest itself of certain institutions and organizations that will probably not survive these revelations in the long term. I'm aware that I've had very little impact in this regard, but I still believe the small leaks are necessary to break the dam of misinformation on the subject. When the governments will eventually reveal these secrets, there will be undoubtedly be a societal upheaval, but in my opinion, the longer we wait, the worse it will be. I choose to divulge what I know anonymously out of selfishness for the wellbeing of myself and my family. I'm aware that this diminishes the reach and credibility of my message, but it's the furthest I'm willing to go. I chose this forum because it offers a good compromise between anon, an anonymy and an an anonymy. Like what is it? Defining NEMO anonymity, non anonymity in popularity. In order to protect my anonymity, I will be purposefully vague or even contradictory about the information that could identify me, date education role, et cetera. I'll even introduce red hearings. In this respect, I want to make it clear that any information related to the subject of the research will not be treated in this way. Before going any further, please excuse me if you find it difficult to understand what I'm explaining. Some parts of my text are very technical. It's difficult to understand the right balance between vulgarization and scientific explanation. I continue by talking about myself. What's the point of talking about me and knowing that the information will necessarily be misleading. I simply want to introduce a perspective of the type of people who work there. Normal scientists, I have a PhD in molecular biology. I didn't actively seek to become a part of the program. Rather, there was a stroke of luck that introduced me to one of the senior scientists. I met this person at a conference where I was presenting a poster on my PhD research. When I think back, I don't believe he was impressed by what I was presenting because it was quite frankly, a project that wasn't going anywhere. I think he was rather the most important aspect of a professional life, the attitude and the ease in which you make connections. Shortly afterwards, I graduated and received a call from the person offering me a position. At the time, everything pointed to me working in a regular laboratory. I did a series of three increasingly suspicious interviews and in a different location where my scientific background and knowledge became less and less relevant. The first was was with two of the senior scientists, the second and third with people who I've never seen again and who obviously not interested in science. Sometime after the interview, I was asked to go to a fourth location where that, where what seems like a corporate lawyer presented me with an nda. He made sure not only to explain every detail, but also that I understand the consequences of not respecting it. The first employment weeks were far by far the most memorable, although I spent most of the time in the depressing archive room. It consists almost exclusively of reading about the subject of study and to get us up to speed. There's no secret Wikipedia or even a reference guide. There are only dry reports, memos, presentations, procedures, and standard operating procedures. SOPs. These documents are almost exclusively about the biology of Ebos and there are also a few that deal with other subjects such as

Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul. is a 2022 American dark comedy-drama film written, directed, and produced by Adamma Ebo, in her feature directorial debut, and is a feature-length adaptation of Ebo's 2018 short film of the same name. Starring Sterling K. Brown and Regina Hall. This movie has SUCH A LOUD message and I want to discuss. So coming up next week, I ask my homeboy Jay... who didn't grow up in church the following; Has anyone ever had a conversation with you about what makes a healthy relationship vs. unhealthy? Not having those conversations… Was that at your detriment? You didn't grow up in church — so how would you feel about dating a women who felt she could change you solely by praying for you? Do you feel sorry for women like Trinity? Would you ever advise a woman to continue to stay with a man she wasn't happy with? Who continuously embarrassed her/broke her trust? Can a man like that change solely because she wants him to? Have you ever stayed too long in a relationship— hoping she'd change? If you worked harder? If you love her harder? What should be the cut off? When do you leave said relationship? How did you view relationships/love (20s) vs. how do you view relationship/love now? (35+) Leaving you with this scripture; And so he did only a few miracles there because of their unbelief (Matthew 13:58) If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet. (Matthew 10:14) --- Now, suppose you are ready to invest in yourself, to learn how to do the work to be happy single, truly. You want tools to do better in this area, unlearn bad Christian dating theology, learn how to set and KEEP boundaries and you know you have nothing else to lose. In, that case, I invite you to apply and join the wait list to Single You Academy. Thank you again for your consideration. I look forward to learning more about you and how we might be-able to help.

Director: Adamma Ebo Screenwriter: Adamma Ebo Starring: Regina Hall, Sterling K. Brown Runtime: 102 min Synopsis: As the proud first lady of a Southern Baptist megachurch, Trinitie Childs carries immense responsibility on her shoulders. Her church, Wander To Greater Paths, once served a congregation in the tens of thousands, but after a scandal involving her husband, Pastor Lee-Curtis Childs, forced the church to close temporarily, Trinitie is struggling to manage the aftermath. Now Trinitie and Lee-Curtis must rebuild their congregation and reconcile their faith by all means necessary to make the biggest comeback that commodified religion has ever seen. *Originally part of MTR's Sundance 2022 Coverage  Snapshot Review: Written and directed by Adamma Ebo, Honk For Jesus. Save Your Soul, pulls viewers through the side door of the church for a behind-the-scenes look at a ministry in crisis and a marriage at a crossroads. Inspired by the real-life fall from grace of megachurch pastor Eddie Long amid accusations of sexual misconduct, Honk for Jesus goes deep in its bag for a biting commentary on the parasitic relationship between megachurches and the Black community, deification of religious leaders, denial, rejection of the self, and trying to hold on to success at any costs. Pastor Lee-Curtis Childs (Sterling K. Brown) and First Lady, Trinitie (Regina Hall) are in dire need of some good press. They've lost their standing in the community. Amid public scandal, their congregation fled. Now former parishioners, Keon and Shakura Sumptor (played with by Conphidance and Nicole Beharie) reign supreme and they have no intentions of stepping  aside. In the hopes of revitalizing their image as they plan a grand re-opening, the Lee-Curtis hires a documentarian. But what's intended to be a record of their celebratory return, swiftly takes a turn. Because that scandal upended the delicate balance of this couple's complicated marriage arrangement too. Unlike the majority of feature films taking aim at religious institutions, Ebo's dark satire presents (partially) as a mockumentary. It's a choice that allows the implied (scandal) narrative to work in tandem with an intimate fly-on-the-wall portrait of a partnership under stress. Offering this narrative up as “story within a story,” is a savvy way to lean into the messiness that is church communities, while keeping the story accessible to a wider audience. Read that back one more time, Honk For Jesus. Save Your Souls is a movie with a specific audience in mind, but everyone is welcome to partake. Just know Ebo's storyline relies on the kind of sly references, call and response mentality, and church-folk banter that are the hallmark of many a Southern Baptist household all specifically designed to work on multiple levels. If you let it, in between laughing at moments of sheer outrageousness, Honk For Jesus will greatly inform your understanding of Black culture, community, and its complicated relationship with religious hypocrisy and the gospel of prosperity.    A subtly building tension between Lee-Curtis and Trinitie sets the stage for a nuanced take on partnership, love, marital sacrifice and betrayal. Hall and Brown have a kind of chemistry a relationship under pressure needs to sell such over the top characters like Lee-Curtis and Trinitie. Individually and collectively the pair set the tone and masterfully control the ebb and flow of the storyline that deliberately speaks around complicated issues. Juxtapose with the more composed - but no less engrossing - dynamic of rival pastors played with a mesmerizing poise by Conphidance and Nicole Beharie Honk for Jesus offers a not-so-quiet commentary on complexity of morality. Thankfully, Ebo deftly dovetails the more serious moments with the kind of insightful comedic edge that balances rather than breaks that tension.   As this disgraced couple's relationship unravels, Trinitie unresolved pain comes into sharp focus,

My special guest this time is Dean Bushala. He is a commercial and television Producer, Director and Cinematographer.  He has directed series for National Geographic, History and Discovery Channel.  He started his career designing and branding television networks in Europe. Listen in as Dean and I cover a lot of ground in our 1-hour fun and insightful chat. Dean explains how and why he got attracted from an early age to film. He shares some funny and interesting anecdotal stories including some of the risks in achieving TV shows that can be popular in both the US domestic market and also language dubbed, and remain successful in other countries. Dean talks about diversity and quality of the people he gets to work with and shares some advice for younger people wishing to get deeper into the film industry. Honestly, 1-hour was not long enough but it was sure real quality time spent... Dean has his own company called Red Branch Productions which is well worth exploring. One of Deans passions is to give back and help educate children through his newly co-created children's live-action animated film documentary series -  here's just one example: Ebo's Adventures - Song: What's in the Sea'.   I'm rounding off these show notes with direct text from Deans website because I want to highlight this exceptionally talented, and I sense, humble individual...and below is just the first paragraph!

 Dean is an Emmy-winning Producer and Director of Photography. His documentary films and commercial work have taken him to some of the world's most remote locations, from several hundred miles out onto the frozen Arctic Sea, to floating through the Amazon jungle on a man-made raft, to 60 feet under water SCUBA diving with sharks off the coastal reef of Belize.
