On this episode, Alan Seltzer and John Povilaitis welcome two Power Players who are helping revolutionize the energy space by developing technology that they say will allow existing electric power generation plants to use natural gas with absolutely zero carbon emissions. Brothers Joel and Jeff Haas say, unlike other carbon emission technology that requires significant upfront cost and a major overhaul of a power plant's existing infrastructure, their company, G2 Power promises to make this process incredibly simple and cost-effective. This episode explores how G2 Power's technology would impact decommissioned or soon-to-be decommissioned coal plants, key legislation that would create incentives for more use of their technology, how much power plants could save in operating cost by using their technology and much more.

Host Bob Hercules sat down with attorney Flint Taylor to discuss the murder of Black Panther leader, Fred Hampton in 1969, who is the subject of the recent film, “Judas & The Black Messiah.” With five Oscar nominations, including for best picture, this movie ultimately took home an Academy Award for Daniel Kaluuya’s performance as Fred Hampton in the Best Supporting Actor category.Along with his partner, Jeff Haas, in the People’s Law Office, Flint Taylor takes us through the journey of how they uncovered and proved the truth about what happened to Fred Hampton and fellow Black Panther, Mark Clark. They were able to alter the public’s perception being put forth by Cook County State’s attorney Edward v. Hanrahan and other public officials that the Panthers were a terrorist organization and were the aggressors in this altercation. Even though the media reported this fabrication initially as the truth, these two remarkably persistent lawyers were able to shine a light on the orchestrated assassination of Fred Hampton which was part of a larger Counterintelligence program initiated by the FBI, aimed at surveilling, infiltrating, discrediting, disrupting and neutralizing American political organizations and leaders deemed subversive.Flint Taylor is an American human rights and civil rights attorney based in Chicago, Illinois, who has litigated many high-profile police brutality, government misconduct and death penalty cases. Taylor has pursued public interest law to take on allegations of corrupt police tactics and wrongful convictions in the city of Chicago and elsewhere. Taylor was part of a team of negotiators in the 2015 landmark decision by the City of Chicago to award reparations to the survivors of police torture, becoming the first municipal government to do so.

Flint Taylor and Jeff Haas, co-founders of the People's Law Office in Chicago, were the lead lawyers in the landmark case that exposed the FBI's involvement in the assassination of Black Panthers Fred Hampton and Mark Clark. While that case was settled nearly 40 years ago, newly revealed documents show that the conspiracy to murder Hampton and cover up evidence of government involvement goes deeper than most ever imagined. In this special episode of “Rattling the Bars,” Eddie Conway talks with Taylor and Haas about their decades-long battle for the truth, the government's continued surveillance and persecution of dissenters, and the ongoing fight for justice and accountability.Read the transcript for this video: https://therealnews.com/the-government-murdered-fred-hampton-will-it-ever-be-held-accountableHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and making a small donation: Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-yt-rtbSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/nl-yt-rtbGet Rattling the Bars updates: https://therealnews.com/up-yt-rtbLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews
Newly unearthed documents have shed new light on the FBI's role in the murder of the 21-year-old Black Panther leader Fred Hampton on December 4, 1969, when Chicago police raided Hampton's apartment and shot and killed him in his bed, along with fellow Black Panther leader Mark Clark. Authorities initially claimed the Panthers had opened fire on the police who were there to serve a search warrant for weapons, but evidence later emerged that told a very different story: The FBI, the Cook County State's Attorney's Office and the Chicago police had conspired to assassinate Fred Hampton. FBI memos and reports obtained by historian and writer Aaron Leonard now show that senior FBI officials played key roles in planning the raid and the subsequent cover-up. “It was approved at the highest level,” says attorney Jeff Haas. We also speak with attorney Flint Taylor. Both are with the People's Law Office and were the lead lawyers in a landmark civil rights case over the deaths of Fred Hampton and Mark Clark.
He was the young charismatic leader of the Chicago chapter of the Black Panther Party who was gunned down by the Chicago Police Department at the behest of the F.B.I's COINTELLPRO program. Designed to neutralize the Black Panther Party and all other leftist movements that ran counter to the status quo of U.S. Imperialism and White Supremacy. Hampton a bold leader and organizer was reaching across racial boundaries to form what he would call a "Rainbow Coalition". Unfortunately he wouldn't live to see it come to fruition. On this episode we'll be speaking with the lawyers that litigated his case for DECADES Flint Taylor and Jeff Haas. G. Flint Taylor is a founding member of the People's Law Office in Chicago. He was, together with Jeff Haas, a lead lawyer in the landmark Fred Hampton and Mark Clark civil rights case. He has represented numerous police torture survivors during the past 33 years. He was one of the lawyers involved in the struggle for reparations and has chronicled the decades-long fight against Chicago police violence and torture in his book, The Torture Machine: Racism and Police Violence in Chicago, which was released March 2019 by Haymarket Books. Jeff Haas is a founding partner of the People's Law Office (PLO) in Chicago. He was, together with Flint Taylor, a lead lawyer in the landmark Fred Hampton and Mark Clark civil rights case, and was one of the main lawyers for the 17 Pontiac Brothers, wrongfully charged but acquitted in the capital murder trial for the Pontiac Prison Rebellion in 1978. Jeff also worked with other PLO lawyers representing the victims of Chicago Police Department torturer Jon Burge. Most recently, Jeff provided legal support and represented Water Protectors at Standing Rock. He is a board member of the Water Protector Legal Collective as well as of the Adalah Justice Project.

This is like a put paper view on man. This is solved the nationals who doesn’t want to see that? Oh, that would be amazing. I’m not going to lie. You haven’t figured out what’s going on. It’s like there, they be like occupied as six block territory of Seattle and they, and to go against the injustices of the world, they’ve done the same thing. The U S does by building. The very first thing they did was built a wall with checkpoints and our guards fight the power. Apparently there’s some rogue, independent rapper with his entourage. It’s like beating the shit out of why isn’t this a movie like you wouldn’t pay 20 bucks a day to watch the cameras in there. We are living that’s that’s the dude, whoever created black mirror, season six, the fully immersive experience is just a goddamn genius.

Like Howard, do there’s gotta be life. I actually, now that you said that there’s gotta be live feed somewhere. Like there has to be, no, they don’t like there.

Well, and then you’ve got Fox news using, um, conflated images where they’re like they’re Photoshopping multiple images together to try to paint the situation is worse than it really is. So that’s not helping. So I don’t know what’s going on. I mean basically what the guy said was, uh, well, yeah. Then you also have MSNBC saying, well it’s a street fair. And like, basically it’s not a street fair. I mean they took over sitting on the police station. Well, they didn’t take over city hall. They did. They did take over the police station that the cops pulled out of. Um, yeah, I do that. That’s literally one of those stories that I like, I don’t know what to make of it. Like I, like, I want a movie I will. And you know, dude, Netflix and Hulu are probably both offering just giant bags of money right now to whoever to get film crews in there, you know, to, to get the inside scoop and get a documentary rolling like they did with fire festival. Um, it’s I it’s, it does. I mean like, like if you look at like some posts, it seems like it’s like, I haven’t seen anything like that since a grateful dead concert. And then you look at some posts and it’s like mad max. Like I don’t, I don’t know which to buy into. My favorite line I saw was it was like, it was like a Lollapalooza 92. Those kids finally had kids and they’re there and they grew up hearing all the stories and decided to go ahead and do it. Nice. It’s so stupid. Like, it really was like, like after like day four and they’re like, what are we doing now? I dunno, got any pot what’s going on? And then it’s like burning man. Like all the burning man, people at night. And what are you going to do when you run out of stuff? Because now you’ve got no, cause now you’ve got all the truckers that are saying, I ain’t going in. There are those gardens real. They can’t be real. It’s like, did you see it? And it’s like an eight foot by eight foot. It’s like, they just dumped like six bags on the grass, like playing in it. Like it’s going to be my garden, man. The Brando plant’s grave. Anyway, straps cameras on people like, seriously, you want to, you want to make money? It’s like the George Carlin bit like the mass murders, the square States. Yeah. You fence off all the square States and yeah, Seattle colon Chaz would be the number one show on all of us law and order Chaz rapper ever. I see Wiz Khalifa or whatever. They’ll think Rapper’s name. And it took over the town. All, I don’t see do it. I got nothing. He’s like the judge and they bring everybody in front of him and he’s taking him to Detroit or whatever. I don’t even know where the, you know, I can’t say I don’t mean, I honestly don’t mean to laugh because the, this whole thing was, was built on good intention. I think, I think I want to think not to bring it back to reality, but like there was like, things are starting to happen. Change is starting to happen. And like, but now the ban hammer has gotten a little crazy. I think, um, now you want to cancel cops, which did get canceled and then you cancel live PD and then, and then like, is, did pop patrol get canceled or no, they were, people were lobbying for it, but there’s no. All right. It’s one of those. No, no, no, that people weren’t. It was like two persons were two people on Twitter and it became a Buzzfeed article. Yeah. And then everyone, now everyone talks about, they wanted to ban puppet show, but like, do you like cops was the wa like, I guess I’m wrong. Cops was the one show that I sent will be on until the end of time, because you’ll never have a shortage of dumb people. And apparently I get, I don’t get my fix. No. And like, I understand. So like live PD apparently had an issue where they did film a really, really bad situation. Um, and you know, but like, and, and it is, I mean, I, I understand some of the sentiment, but like now they’re coming after like law and order and they’re coming after, you know, those franchises and that kind of stuff, because they say they, they glorify the police and okay. Anybody who’s ever watched law and order knows that’s not true. I mean, you’ve had cops with drug issues. You’ve had cops, you know, that have been raped. You’ve had cops that have been kicked off the force. You’ve had, you know, DA’s that have been, you know, killed. You’ve had, I mean, it’s, it, it, no, that’s, that’s not what that show is. Like. I think that’s gone with the wind and they have to dump Andy Griffith show. Now, like how far back we go on with this? Well, and so, you know, and we’ve kinda, you know, somewhat joked about this before, but I mean, it’s, it is kind of a real thing. So, you know, Amazon’s talking about pulling the Dukes of hazard, but yet the Jefferson’s is still on the air with George calling everybody honky, you know, so, I mean, is it, you, it it’s, you know, it’s, again, it’s looking for balance. That was the goddamn state flag and, uh, up until, well, how many years ago? Oh, Georgia. Yeah. Yes. Remember that one car that they got all pissy about or like, um, that was the state flag down in those years. Uh, so what do you, what do you, how far are you going to go with this? You know, well, and it’s, you know, and I get it and, and I think a lot of people, you know, like I was talking about it with like, you know, the Christopher Columbus statue getting pulled down and a lot of the, and a lot of the Confederate statues coming down and that kind of stuff. And he’s like, Oh, it’s a racing history. No, it’s not like the history is still there. It’s erasing a monument to dumb shit. Like, like why do you have a statue of a Confederate general in your town center? Here’s a good years ago. It’s on part of obviously lots of the German community. And all of them are talking about how the differences are between keeping Auschwitz up as a Memorial versus bringing, like having generally on a statue. Right. One is to remind people of the atrocities that occurred. They are not, shearing are heralding. There’s nothing to that. Right. Where I think the difference is a lot of these Confederate statues is, um, that they’re, that people view them as heroes. Correct. They’re there, you’re not, you know, the, the, the things that Amish fits in well, and there’s a difference between like an Auschwitz or like the Gettysburg cemetery or, you know, something like that. I don’t see any German statues of Heinrich Himmler. Exactly. Yeah. There’s yeah. Like there’s, yeah. There’s no statues to Himmler or Hitler or anything like that floating around. Um, you know, it’s, it is, I mean, it’s, you know, you look back and you, and especially when you realize that, I mean, the quote, unquote Confederacy only lasted just barely five years. Like it wasn’t like a long period of time in history when that succession happened and it got shut down, you know, like how did it be like, like anyway and not to get to, to go, no. How did they, like from it became state flags. And then all of a sudden it became like the cry of the rednecks. And it became certainly the reality is, I mean, you know, a lot of things are NASCAR and do it in the South. Like, so like I grew up in Virginia and, and, and things are taught like the civil war is not the civil war in the South. It’s the war of Northern aggression in schools. Um, and there are different names for battlefields that are, you know, that are taught, uh, and that kind of stuff. I mean, it, it really is a huge thing. And cause even though the Confederacy itself only lasted five years, what people tend to, I think romanticize is the, I guess for lack of a, for the first word that comes to mind is the antebellum, you know, lifestyle, you know, the, the gentlemen and like the good parts have gone with the wind minus, you know, the slavery and beatings and lynchings and killings and all that stuff. That was like my favorite book. What about all the good things Hitler, right? Yeah. You had the trains. It was great. Uh, but I mean, but no, I mean it’s the, the sad reality is, is people, you know, people romanticized certain facets of that era and, and it became a Confederate pride thing. Uh, and, and so that’s why, you know, the dude that like the South will rise again. You’ll still see that, you know, if, if you drive around, you know, we’re like, I don’t understand people in say Michigan flying them. Cause Michigan, wasn’t a Confederate state and you’ve lived here your whole life and you’ve got a Confederate flag. Nah, you’re just a redneck racist. That’s all. That is a, I mean, you got a lot of people that like their families, like their dads or their grandpas came from the South. Like I remember, um, I remember when Bubba passed and that was like part of his Memorial and that was what four or five years ago. And I joked back then and I go, everyone take a picture and I would go, Oh, no, you were like, no, no, no, no, no. I’m not having my picture taken in front of them. Nobody. I mean, it’s, it’s real. And I mean, it’s, you know, and, and so the, it it’s weird. I mean, I can’t say that I fully understand it. I mean, I grew up around that a little bit. Um, and I have friends that, you know, that were deeply entrenched in it. Um, but it, it never made sense to me. I mean, that’s why I love the, you know, everybody’s worried about, you know, the, you know, they’re not, you know, they’re not doing this and NASCAR, they’re not doing that. And NASCAR. Yeah. Don’t worry. The, uh, the real Confederate flag will still fly in that final lap when they’re waving the white flag for the final lap notification. I mean, that was the funny thing. It’s like, I don’t even watch NASCAR enough to know that that was a thing. So like they’re banning and I’m like, I didn’t know. They were even there so well, so, and it dude, and honestly, so there’s, there’s like something to keep in mind and it’s, and it’s a real powerful message that’s going to right. And we’re going around right now is that of all of the sports NASCAR has come out, banned the Confederate flag, fired a driver for using the N word when yelling at somebody and has, and has, and again has taken all these steps. No, do that. Yes. We had to Google who you were. Oh, that one guy. Yes. No, that was absolutely real. I don’t think so. I looked for it and couldn’t find it. It was so, I mean, that was a guy here that he had been yeah. Had never won a race and yet it was a total idiot. Yeah. But well, but he wasn’t the one, he wasn’t the one that got he, wasn’t the one that got fired. He’s the one that just quit and nobody cared because, well, you’ve never done anything. Um, but no, it’s like, they’ve, they’ve gone out of their way. That’s NASCAR, like the most redneck easiest, like Southern entrenched sport in the nation. What are you doing? NFL NBA, NHL, you know, like it’s, you know, if they can take such a hard line stance on this, where the hell are you during all This ever seen? I don’t, I don’t know. I’ve never been to a game down at NFL game down South. I couldn’t imagine maybe tailgating, but it’s not part of the, see the problem with NASCAR is the fans are in the S in the middle. I’ve heard of the game, like when you’re tailgating or not part of the game in the NFL. Right. So I think maybe that’s, you know, gotcha. Then the tailgating is all done in private property. So it’s, you can’t really mandate anything, you know, you can’t, you’re not going to let flags in the arena and there’s none in the arena. So, I mean, that’s kinda, um, but kind of on a, on an it front, a lot of people are already complaining about it. Not knowing what’s going on. If you haven’t read, uh, it’s on digital attack, map.com, but the U S is under a huge DDLs attack right now. And like 15 major cell carriers, um, are all kind of went poopy. Um, the problem is when you went to that, um, when I sent you that map, David starts at like 2014. So you get a fast forward, Like when you click play. Yeah. So like U S is getting slammed right now. Um, pretty much every major Carrier now is reporting huge outages, sell, sell, even with Verizon’s little press release. I thought that was cute. No, no, no. Everybody other carriers are reporting outages, but not us, but no. I’ve seen people with Verizon that are reporting issues. So I had a friend that called the T-Mobile store and what they told him was that they tried to fire up their five G network and things went haywire and that it would take like two weeks to straighten out. Which one would you want your store telling people that I would obviously turn it back off, turn it back off. That’s where I learned from it. You roll that back from production. I learned that from, I learned what was going on from brick. He goes 20, 20. Great. That’s all we need is for no more internet internet. Can you even imagine? Yeah. You want people to really go crazy, but Hey, when we are on the internet, we, uh, we need our privacy. That’s why all of us have teamed up with our friends, from private internet access.

That was a good segue there. Joker, by the way, you like that, you know what? I’m going to get into this in a second. I had a bunch of arguments today. One of our guys at work, his name’s Gordon, his last name. So every time they bring them up, I put a flash Gordon gift. I can do a flash. So of course, one of the guys, he’s our, he’s our peer storage engineer. He’s like, what the hell? He’s like 34. He’s like, what the hell is that? Like, it’s flash Gordon. He goes, I don’t know what that means. So I started dropping YouTube clips and they’re like, this is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen it. I’ve got this huge semantic argument about how flash Gordon is one of the greatest movies ever. And he tried to tell me no. And he think he, I think he knows he’s getting me fired up. Right. It’s easy to do. But, um, I think, uh, I think I got one of my hands. Will you, uh, you, you hated joker. I didn’t hate it. I just said it sucked. And so, okay. So here’s my issues with it. So if you haven’t seen joker tune out for a minute or two, cause we’re going to get a little deep, um, here’s my problem. It was essentially the series finale of st. Elsewhere, uh, as directed by M night Shyamalan. Uh, and it wasn’t complete. It was completely predictable. As soon as the scene happened with the girl down the hall, not knowing who the hell he was. I knew exactly how that movie was ending. And I’ve had, I even said to myself, please, God, let this not be how they’re going to end this movie and sure as shit, that’s how they ended the movie like that. Like that entire movie, essentially being a dream sequence, um, kiss my ass like that. And this is what this, yeah, it was, and this is why DC sucks. And this is why DC, To me, it was American psycho ending where you didn’t know if, you know, he was in prison, then got moved over to Arkham and he did all that shit. Or if he dreamed it all up, like while he was going, like, you know what I mean? To me, that’s how it that’s the ending. It wasn’t necessarily, the whole entire thing was a dream sequence. It was interpreted like it could be, or it couldn’t have been, it could have been real, or it could have, could have been in his head or all, you know, to me it was American psycho. I knew that’s why I loved it. No, sorry. I know that ending can only lead in my opinion to the conclusion that the entire thing was in his head. Um, you know, just whether it’s the, the interactions with the girl that weren’t there, or, you know, like the other stuff that didn’t have. I mean, it’s, it’s, there’s just, no, that is not what that movie should have been. And, and especially after like I did, I liked dude, I thought Aquaman was a great flick. Um, I thought, you know, when Roman was a little long, but it was a good flick. Um, I have high hopes for wonder woman, 84 kind of redeeming it mostly cause I’m looking forward to the soundtrack. Um, but you know, and, and Shizam was good. And, you know, dude, you can’t take a character that has had such buildup like the joker, you know, whether it, you know, from, you know, Nicholson to, you know, Heath ledger and all that stuff and do that to that character. No, like, I, I, that was such a waste of a movie that was a bigger waste of a movie than suicide squad. I, that was, that was terrible. I’m not going to watch it because they just introduced a major renovation of the joker and then completely ignored it. This new joker isn’t related to any other DC movie they have out, there you go. What’s the point. Like I just watched Aqua man this weekend and I thought it was too cliche. Well, how do you think this? How was this joke or not related to any joke or they showed it was Batman origin, Which Batman? I don’t know the, was it the Well, so there’s the no, so Robert Pattinson, Batman. Yeah. Well, and that’s the thing, you know, cause he had, did show, you know, the well, but again, Is it because that was all in his head? Well, I mean, does it or see here’s that’s me. I thought he got thrown into prison when he was, you know, during that whole riot, after the right things, he got thrown into prison and then, you know, so some of it was in his, like, as he was progressing, some of it was in his head. Some of it was, but so how can The riot thing have happened if none of the predicate things were real? Because if not, It wasn’t, I dunno, it was hopping in and out. Yeah. Sorry. I thought it was pretty awesome. It was an awesome watch. And again, if you watch it, like I do with wrestling now, like watch it, like you’re a 12 year old, like granted his, a deeper twelve-year-old, but you know what I mean? I just did. I, did I enjoy it? I enjoyed it for being a different story. Like it wasn’t what I expected at all, which was another reason why I liked it. Um, I don’t know. Well, that’s a totally, like I had heard, like I heard it was dark and I heard it, you know, a lot, you know, in, in, you know, it was a lot of mental stuff and, and that kind of thing, but I still didn’t do it. I didn’t have any expectations walking into it other than God. I hope this is a good movie. Um, And I’m sorry. I think here’s the thing. Like we watched, you know, me and you are entertained by two different things, like right. You watch law and order and pay attention. Um, I watch wrestling and go and burp, like, you know what I mean? Like we, we watched TV and movies for two different reasons. I enjoy, you know, dumb and dumber 73 times, Dude, I’m a dude. I love brain candy. Like I, you know, I’m, I, you know, dude, I’m all about you. My, my taste in TV and movies is not that different than my taste in music. I, I love bubblegum pop, like give me, you know, did I, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched looser for, or, you know, or I’ve watched, you know, any of the other, you know, dumb shows that are out there. Cause I’m going back and watching those instead of watching anything new. Cause I don’t have faith in anything new. Um, but it’s, I, yeah, like I said, I mean just for me, Like from, if you look at it as if you look at it as America, like I looked at it as a parallel for American psycho, like literally you did like what Patrick Bateman, did he really think he was this assassin? Or was he killing people? And no one believed him because he was as wall street, hot shot. Like, you know what I mean? Like, like it, but like in his head he’s killing people while he’s going about his job as a hedge fund manager. Right. That’s kind of what I, that’s kind of what joker was to meet in parallel almost, almost like they ripped off the same story. See, and to me it was a two hour plus version of the five, second vignettes inside of true lies when Arnold Schwarzenegger would have those very vivid dreams of like punching Chet in the face and that kind of stuff. Like it was basically that for two plus hours and, and no shit forever and he’ll, he will always be chat. Um, but no, so I mean, yeah, so like I said, I’m, I hard, hard, hard pass. Um, and, and okay. So, and speaking, cause I did, I watched it cause it was on HBO. I just, when I thought I had the whole HBO go HBO now, HBO, max, HBO, Osho, HBO, like I thought I had that all figured out, you know, they changed everything again. And I want, I do, I want whoever is in charge of this shit. I want them on this show and I want them on this show when we are back in the studio so I can break distancing guidelines and slap them. No, I, I, I want a Jeff Haas slap. They, um, my, of course you get my kid hooked on loony tunes and then I can’t log into max anymore. Why not? They were pretty funny now it’s $15 a month, but I thought, okay, so again, so here’s free for infinity subscribers. Right. And I have HBO and it’s not now and now it’s not. Okay. So it was, it was supposed to be so like maybe I did something wrong because was so yeah. Cause so HBO go is now going and, and, and being replaced with HBO. Max HBO now is staying as like the add on for like Hulu users and people that are Amazon prime members that just want to get it that way. But I thought the whole point was HBO go basically was transitioning into HBO max, where if you had the subscription, it was just going to go ahead and carry forward. You know what the people, uh, I think the same salespeople that are working on COVID with the news or working on HBO. Oh shit. They can’t explain shit. Master good master bad master. Good master, bad master. Good master, bad master. Good. Okay. Speaking of which, we talked about, my one concert got canceled entirely, which I’m sad about my other one got moved to April next year. Um, did you see what the flaming lips are doing? I thought that was hilarious. That was, that was amazing. I thought it was the onion again and it’s not, um, they’re basically they’re performing. I mean, wasn’t it, the daily show that showed it Cole bear area. Um, there there’s basically four. Like it’s all I swear to God boy in the bubble with John, Travolta’s becoming modern, modern art. You can buy it. So I’ve, I’ve actually thought about buying those giant hamster balls. Like you can buy them off Amazon and I’ve legit thought about buying them just to have a couple in the pool. Um, and see what hilarious, when they’re sitting in these things, don’t you fall on your ass? Like they’re not stable. Like no. And you have to be very careful when you walk, because that’s the thing is like, once you start stepping forward, then your back foot starts getting lifted up. And it’s, it’s a whole, like I’m looking at the picture and the crowd there’s like, they allowed like 12 people in a crowd that can fit a thousand. Cause they got these goddamned bubbles in on. And like you can’t move. Where do you pee? Like nice shout, shout out to Ian who just said, forget it. Just rename everything HB know. And again, like what happens if the guy’s on stage and he’s singing, then he wants a bottle of sip of water and he’s got a key. Like he can’t do nothing. You’re stuck in his goddamn John Travolta dude. I don’t even, yeah. I don’t even know, although horrible, although where you’re probably gonna want. One of those is if you’re planning on going to Jami Neuner, cause apparently they’ve said to hell with everything we’re having Javi Nooner anyway, shabby, Nooner, if you’ve never, that’s the biggest cesspool of, I remember the good old days when the worst thing you were worried about catching a job, Nooner was, you know, crabs. There’s nothing worse than going out into the, into like four foot of water. And there’s like 15 dudes with their arms crossed, just staring at you and you all know and you know, they’re all paying every, not a minimum. Cause like no one goes out like to waste deeper water for no reason. And they all come out there, like The kind of conversation you continue to shop. So yeah. So, uh, so not, not that it’s been real high on my social calendar, uh, for the past, you know, I don’t know decade anyway. Uh, but yeah, hard, hard pass on, on Javi Nooner for me again. Yeah. So in some, uh, in some Detroit news, um, what’s going on with project Greenlight, that was kind of a, I thought that was a successful project. It is. Uh, so, and we’ve talked about it on the show before where the, one of the issues with any facial recognition system in general, and this is why you’ve seen, uh, like Microsoft and IBM have both announced, they’re getting out of facial recognition technology. Um, one of the issues is the enormously high rate of false positives, uh, when it comes to people of color. Like, so basically if you’re white, you’re going to be all right when it comes to facial recognition software, um, if you are not, it is as high as I believe, a 70% false positive rate, uh, using facial recognition. Oh, absolutely. So the entire point of it is so it’s, it’s all, you know, and we’ve all seen him if you’ve been downtown, you know, if there’s a green light out front, they’ve got security cameras and stuff that are hooked into the central police department. And so, and this was, and again, we’ve talked about this on the show before the big complaint about it was the use of facial recognition technology. Um, and when are they using it and how are they using it? And, and, and that kind of stuff, because, you know, essentially if it’s on 24 seven, then you’re constantly under surveillance and, you know, the, the DPD came out and said, no, we only turn it on. You know, we only turn it on when it, you know, we get an alert from, um, you know, one of the participating business owners that there’s been a crime and then we activate it and everybody kind of went yeah, right on. So, but this, to your point, this, this whole conversation comes this whole conversation Project Greenlight is that it’s paid a play. Like Sure, you can have security if the police will respond to you, you know, if you pay. Right. So, but so to your point, uh, the reason why he brought this up and the reason why it was on our story list this week is, uh, so the, uh, you know, the protesters, uh, the organizers of the protests and stuff downtown, you know, sat down and met, uh, and had a meeting with, you know, the powers that be, uh, and I believe number two, uh, on their list of demands was get rid of project Greenlight. And a lot of business owners have come out and said, uh, no, uh, because you know, it has helped them increase safety. It has helped them, you know, make their customers feel more safe and help their customers feel more secure and help their employees feel more safe and secure. Um, and so they want it to continue. Uh, so I mean, it’s, it’s going to be an interesting situation to see how that shakes out. Well, you know, my feelings on this crap when it first started, right. I’m like new. Um, and then it gets implemented and then the business owners are like, okay, Hey, you know, what’s the number 23%. Um, crime is down at their establishments. And some of, some of those places go through absolute health, um, trying to serve the public. So, I mean, um, so part of me is like, you know, you know, how do you know it’s not one of those things, how does democracy diet with thunderous applause, right? We’re not, I don’t think we’re there yet having private cameras, private group, private it’s private businesses, far as I’m concerned, it’s surveillance at private business. So I’m, I’m completely fine with that. What are, you know, um, I mean, if you think about it, it is a Very small step beyond us having nest cams in our studios and calling nine one one, if something happens and turning over the footage, it is, it is simply one step further where you have that connection with the police department to be able to instantly transmit them stuff and give them access to your, you know, to that feed and that kind of stuff, because it’s, you know, cameras under their control. Um, so I mean, I, I get it and, but I do, I mean, I, like I said, with the enormously high, false positive rate, I understand the concerns about it. I absolutely do, you know, in a city, you know, depending on which stat you want to listen to 80 to 83% African American, um, you know, it’s, that’s a problem like that. You know, that that’s a huge, I mean, that puts a lot of people at risk, especially in this day and age, That was always the problem. Like, uh, when they had the, uh, the blinking, uh, w with cameras, with like Asians, there was always, there was an issue. It always seems like some of the, so always something with these technologies is always an issue with some someone’s ethnicity. Right. Whether it was that, you know, do you remember that? Or no. Yes. Uh, and then, you know, like, yeah, the facial recognition thing, like, you know, that, yeah. I think that’s the crux, that’s the crux of this whole entire thing is, you know, he matches the description to the use so loosely. Right. Um, which, which, you know, And just for what it’s worth, uh, shout out to, uh, Greg Walters, he’s watching, um, and he had commented that there were plenty of live streams. And I said, Hey, we’d love to see a few links. And so he’s actually throwing links in, into the chat on this video, if you want to catch him later. Yeah, I totally will. Um, so you know what, uh, my favorite, you know, I think this is, uh, if this was Chinese new year, I think 2020 should be the year of the glory hole. I think we should promote that. I think we should make t-shirts. Um, I think this should be a no. So here’s the, this is the, this is how weird this year has gotten, um, the New York city department of health. Um, that’s the best tweet by the way, uh, the New York city department of health encouraging Gloria hosels, not on my 2020 bingo apocalypse bingo card. Nope, absolutely. Was not. Um, and I want to read this for beta, because I think this is hysterical. Um, this is from the department of health. This is not from like Metro to, this is not the onion. This is not even, it’s not even like the Metro times or like New York post or some rag, right. This is a big New York city department of health. Um, make it a little kinky, be creative with sexual positions and physical barriers, like walls that allow sexual contact while preventing close face to face contact. So in essence, a glory hole and a that’s supposed to kill COVID Randy. Um, your thoughts, it’s not going to kill COVID, it’s going to prevent the spread of prevent. Is it though? Did you hear what you hear? What they’re saying? What I’m saying, it’s not going to prevent it. How is it going to prevent it? So I can’t, I can do this in your mouth, but I can’t coffin it. See you’re safe. Hooray. I mean, it is trans, uh, transmitted by respiratory fluids. So if you’re not breathing in breathing out this whole thing this whole year is it’s a throwaway year. It’s so Stupid. Well, and, uh, and keep in mind if you pay attention to the latest conspiracy theorists, the world’s might be the world might be ending on Thursday. Uh, cause apparently they read the, the, the Mayan calendar interpretation. Uh, apparently there’s a thing with the changeover from, uh, to the Gregorian calendar and you add it last AIDS law basically lost eight days a year. And so you add up that number of years and basically the mine, the December 12th, 20, or December 12th, 2012 is now Thursday. Awesome. I’ll see you on the other side. Um, speaking of New York, this is actually newer post and this is a problem going on right now without bars and restaurants and public places being open. Um, there’s no place to take a piss in New York. And so now people are just whipping it out other than the streets and then peeing everywhere. Um, you know, the basically there’s drink windows selling to go cocktails all over the city. Right. Which is fine. But now where do I make PP? And there’s, there’s nowhere to go. Um, basically those as the story says, coworker saw some guy just coming down the street and pulling his pants down to pee. And she was like, nah, not here, man. They actually quoted that as an actual quote, brilliant journalism these days at the New York post. Um, but that’s been an uptake on the street. Most people, um, like go in a corner or I’ve like friends opened their jacket to cover them up. Um, like basically there’s, uh, you know, I mean, back in the day there was to say, you know, bathrooms are for public or customers only right now. They don’t even have them anyway. Well, yeah, cause they’ve got them locked, but well, cause, and that’s the thing, like, I don’t know if you’ve been paying attention to like all the regulations are coming that are coming out, you know, or that came out for like, you know, bars and restaurants opening. Um, I’ve got two friends that own tattoo shops, a tattoo and piercing shops. And dude like the regulations that came out for them are just absolutely overbearingly, insane. Like I understand what they’re trying to do, but you know, I understand why a lot of places are going, nah, we’re not opening yet new. I could See, I could see for a tattoo parlor. Right. But I like a bar has got almost be as clean as like a fricking surgical Florida hospital. Like it’s this stuff that they’re making them is So over and above Well, or let’s be real, the stuff that they’re supposed to be doing. Like, you know, I was talking to a mutual friend of ours cause I don’t wanna put him on blast, but a mutual friend of ours worked a shift on Saturday. Um, you know, and he, you know, basically said, you know, it was a slow, uh, B even when it got busy, um, you know, people weren’t tipping at well at all. Um, he had at least one walkout on a tab, uh, and he said at one point the door guy looked at him and said, Hey, I’m just going to start letting people in without mass. Cause I just turned away seven people and he was like, Oh hell no, you’re not like, no, no don’t do that. Like, that’s the point of see the thing I don’t get as you walk in with a mask and then you instantly take it off. Well, no, you can take it off. No. So that’s, that’s again, you’re allowed to take it off while you are seated. If you like get up to go to the bathroom, you’re supposed to put it back on. If you’re it it’s exactly. And we, and they wonder, and they wonder why, why, why, why we getting like really like, I can have it off here, but not there. Yeah. And you know, if you’re up and walking around, you are more likely to come in contact with other people outside of your party. Um, and that’s what they’re trying to do is, is, you know, basically limit contact, you know, and it’s, it’s like I said, you know, one of the reasons why, you know, the studio openings got delayed, um, was cause I’ve got, uh, those no touch, uh, you know, infrared thermometers on order and they got delayed. Um, and now they’re going to be here on a Wednesday and I mean, cards on table. I’m not going to lie. That is, I truly believe that that is far more of a touchy feely PR move than it is anything else. Because I mean, you don’t have to have a temperature. I mean, you can be completely asymptomatic and still have it. You can have a temperature, like you can just naturally burn hot and it’s not an issue you could have just like a normal cold and have a fever and it’s not Corona. Um, so I mean, there’s, there’s a lot of, but you know, but heaven forbid we don’t have that in the studios and somebody hops on, you know, Facebook or Twitter or Instagram poke is truly, isn’t doing anything to protect people. Cause you know, that’ll happen. That that’ll be the next thing that happens. That was, that was the thing I was making fun of people at work today. They started installing hockey glass between tables. Like, you know how we sit at like six foot tables, right? Like Ikea tables. And there’s just hockey glass between the tables, what the chairs are. There’s no separation between the people in the chair. So that was like us going to a hockey game. Are you banging on the glass and like chanting at the other people like imagine like glasses on the table, but you can, you can literally put your arm out and touch the person next to you. Right. So of course the guys that are like, they should have their own podcasts. They’re hysterical. I listened to them all day and I’m like, Oh nice hockey glass. I’m helping because they know, right. They’re like, Oh yeah, look, I can just touch Them. You know? Um, well, and that’s the thing. I mean, it’s, I, you know, it’s kinda like the whole Chaz thing. Like I want to believe that all of these rules and regulations are coming from a good place, but it’s just not entirely logical. It, it, to me, it’s just screams of, I don’t want to be public. I don’t want to be on a public freakout video on YouTube and you know, because I am helping, you know, I got my crocheted mascot and Alyssa Milano look, look at me, I’m doing my part. Like it’s, it’s, it’s, I’m doing my part. Are you, we get to become Starship troopers. Like literally this is, this whole year has been like one dystopian movie gone to hell. Oh for sure. Well and contributing to it. I mean, here’s the other downside, you know, especially, you know, with, with so many issues and everything else that people are dealing with over the last three months. Um, you know, so you’ve got the Michigan unemployment agency that’s dealing with, you know, originally they had flagged, I believe they said 340,000 accounts, uh, that is now up to 400,000, uh, that they flagged for being fraudulent and issued stop payments on. And I’ve seen like a lot of friends that are saying that their accounts are one of those ones that are flagged and there’s no, like there’s no way to get in contact with them. Like you’re still on hold forever. You’re still, you know, you can’t get through to somebody to actually like make this go away. And you know, and some people have had it like there for like weeks now. And I mean, and that’s, that’s a huge issue if like, if that’s your only, like, if that’s your lifeline right now, you’re screwed. Yeah, no, it’s good. You know, you’re exactly right. Again. Uh, I, I can’t, you know, I can’t imagine like, here’s the thing, you, you, you have a complete spectrum of people, half of them going, I don’t give a shit and the other half going protect me, save me, public shame, everyone things. Right. And there’s, there’s really, there’s not much, I don’t know. I don’t want to say I’m in between. I’m kind of in between about it. When I go out, I’m safe. I don’t go out that much, but when I do I’m safe. And then for the most part, I’m keeping myself and, you know, um, you know, but I’m not shaming anyone. If I see someone at the store, I’m not going to be like Nicky chill, I’m pulling out my phone and I’m going to post it Well. So, and actually, so there’s a good question. And I was hanging out with the, uh, the tales from the bar side curlier, um, and Remi had gone out, uh, he went out to a bar, uh, this weekend, um, and Lauren is kind of in the same boat I am or like, no, I’m cool. I’m going to wait. So like, you know, yeah. I mean, like I’ve noticed, you know, you’ve been out and checked in at a couple places on Facebook. Like, so what was like, what was the trigger for you that said, Hey, and, and you said you were, you know, you were traveling with, you know, bow and mags. Like, what was the, what was the trigger for you that said, okay, I’m feeling comfortable and safe enough that I’m going to go hit a couple of places That wasn’t a restaurant. That was a takeout window. Oh, okay. I eat my car. Oh, okay. Yeah. There’s picnic tables. It was Doug’s di it was duck delight. And that, uh, that Italian beef stand. Oh, didn’t you didn’t you hit second Base. I did. Okay. Um, yeah, just, you know, And how, like, I’m just curious, like, how did I, I have yet to be in a bar? Like, what was it like? Uh, there was the same two guys that are always there on the right. And there was like four people on the left besides us. Um, and that was, and it was dead quiet. So everybody’s sitting at, like, everybody’s sitting at the bar, is it no bar seating and the table. Okay. Just curious Three tables set up. Um, yeah. You know, I was in there for, you know, piece of pizza and a couple of pops got out. Well, no, I’m just curious. Cause like I know like Detroit shipping company, like they’re getting ready to reopen and they’re basically converting everything to outdoor seating, like, and they basically said, Hey, you know, you’re not going to be able to walk up to the bar and grab a drink. Um, there’s, you know, it’s, it’s basically the inside is going to be open to go to the bathrooms. Uh, everything else is going to be like tableside service. Like, you know, somebody will come take your order for food, somebody who could take your order for drinks and that kind of stuff. Um, at one of the outdoor tables sent me, I’m just, I’m, I’m curious, like, as I’ve, as I’ve heard of people going out, I’m just trying to, you know, me, I’m collecting data points and just trying to figure it out. No, I think, I think it’s a sliding scale as well. Like I just told you, like other people are treating it versus the restaurant. Like some of them are being super precautious about the dive bars, the dive bars don’t give a shit. I’m like, I don’t, you know, I haven’t been to, I don’t know what profession, you will never find a group of people who do not give a shit about the coronavirus more so than walking into a smoke shop. I’m just saying like that. Right. That’s what I’m saying. Like know, And you know, like, you know, again, people kind of, you know, there’s a, there’s a couple of people at work that are like single guys that usually everyday go to the gym and they like, and have a drink once in a while. Right? Like they’ve run out of shit to watch. They’re starting to go stir crazy. They’re working. I mean, I had one guy work a hundred hours last week, rebuilding DFS, because cause, cause that does, what else, what else? Right. I got nothing, you know, he goes out for a run like six in the morning and that’s about, that’s all he has besides being on teams with us. And then, you know, so he’s like F it I’m just rebuilding, you know, rebuild. It took me to SUNY on with a couple of other projects and rebuild a on prem DFS and then like, Okay, cool. It’s done. Like, wait, what’s done. You know what I mean? Like, yeah, I got nothing else to do. What am I supposed to do? Um, I wanted to talk about a couple of things that I was kind of mad about too, that I totally forgot about. Apparently now Legos. Um, you can’t by the police station Legos. Do they, did they actually pull that or was that again, I’m one of those bullshit. I believe they pulled all of them, The advertising for them. I, and I think they requested, um, stores to pull them off their shelves, but did not mandate if I recall correctly. Oh, all right. Uh, um, Favorite stories, which just turn those into collector’s items. Just so we’re all clear. You don’t think I look up To go buy one that I’m going to sell it anytime, but you know what I mean? Yeah. One of my favorite stories this weekend, we have like 42 stories, like the liquidity, cause we didn’t get any last week. Yeah. I always like when hackers do do for the good of the public and apparently hackers jammed all those Chicago police scanners with chocolate rain dude, Which was amazing. Well, and we talked about this, I think two weeks ago where, um, one of the protests locations, somebody got ahold of one of the police radios and started playing NWA, uh, over, you know, over it. And so it doesn’t surprise me that this stuff goes on and more power to them. But so on, on the Corona vibe, did this story blew my freaking mind. I’m the guy that got coronavirus, um, was in the hospital and thankfully like he’s got insurance and like, you know, the government has all these programs out to help waive deductibles and that kind of stuff right now because of COVID. Um, yeah, his bill getting out of the hospital was a hundred and some odd pages long, one point $1 million Million. Um, I was, uh, I was showing that to my wife cause she’s in the medical field and I was going through the line by lines and I like the eyes. Well, the guy was seventies. So I mean, he was in and he was in ICU. So like, well, cause He was in an isolation unit as almost every COVID patient is like, I don’t, I don’t think that was like their do their, Oh, everybody that’s a COVID patient is essentially put into ICU. Cause they’re put into isolation rooms, ventilators and all that crap. By the time you’re getting admitted, you’re going into intensive care. I can’t find this story, but I want to say like every day it was like $9,600 For the room. Yeah. Another like another 1100 or $1,200 for the ventilator. Yeah. Oh, but yeah, one point $1 million. And I mean his out of pocket was zero, correct? Yes. I mean, the story got shared from everywhere thinking, Oh my God, Millie knows. But like, um, and you wonder why healthcare costs are going the way they are. Right. Just to be honest. Well, and so, I mean, that’s, you know, the other, I mean, that’s, you know, it’s been interesting, you know, in that same vein, you know, with all of the, you know, off premise, uh, like all the remote learning and all that stuff that’s been going on. Uh, so, you know, Frazier, uh, which is the school district I’m in, um, got approval to basically stay virtual, um, for all of next year for all grades. Um, which is going to be interesting to see how many people choose, um, an opt in to taking that route. The weird thing that went on this year was you, kids could opt for a greater credit that doesn’t affect their GPA. So interesting that most of the kids like had a couple of classes, which their GPA was based on that they were getting A’s in the rest of the classes. They just got credit. So if you have two classes, the 4.0, your grade point is a 4.0 and a, and literally like, this was, this is my, this has been me and my wife’s life for the last Month is every day. Um, your daughter has done 5% of her cover classes. She’s going to fail, blah, blah, blah. And then you go to your kid, it’s due the 12th dad, the up bucket. I’ve had those same conversations. Yeah. You have, you have 12% done. How are you going to get this shit done? Do the 12 dad quit like literally up til four in the morning, the night before and suddenly it’s all done and they did it and they need to ask you 30,000 questions while they’re doing it. Well, the, the, the weird thing was like, they had us doing Khan Academy, shit. It wasn’t even like schoolwork. It was just like stuff they found to make you do. Yeah. It wasn’t like, you know, but like literally they, like, I like, thank God those texts are gone. Cause like literally every day I would get a text. This is your so, and so’s teacher for this class and her kid’s failing, like, how are you failing? She’s failing. Like, and then it’s this whole back and forth like is a teacher full of Shinar? Are you right? Yeah. Who am I supposed to believe here? That’s the thing that’s going to happen. If they decide to go virtual all year at Frazier it’s the kids are going to not do shit until the stuff’s due. And then they’re going to cram it all in, in two days. And then, you know, learning like, you know what I mean? There’s gotta be some sort of mix or some sort of a, you gotta attend to the zoom class, like, Oh, Oh, that’s totally what, yeah. There’s, there’s still gonna be some of that. Um, Oh God, I can’t believe when we were talking about like pop patrol and that kind of stuff. So apparently they’re going to go back, uh, or actually they’re not going to go back, but they’re moving forward. Um, Elmer Fudd will no longer be carrying a gun on HBO, max. I don’t think there were many of him having a gun. And there was a, he was a pool runner. Yeah. It was scrubbed down. Really? One of the greatest, one of the greatest bugs bunny episodes of all time, the Leopold episode where the guy was Leopold. Yeah. The guy was coughing in the front row and he pulls out a six shooter, blows the guy away. Here’s the thing we grew up on that shit. We didn’t, we all knew the difference. We knew it was a cartoon and not real. We didn’t realize the racist undertones till we were like in her late. So those were some of the older ones let’s be clear. I mean, those were some of the, like the old Injun Joe and like, you know, the, the Jack and the Japanese guy. Yeah. Those, some of those. Yeah. But Hey dude, we were exposed to cross recipe. Dude. Bugs bunny was like the first cross-dresser I was ever exposed to. Right. There was nothing like it. Like, here’s the thing, like when you’re kids, you don’t care. Like that’s the one who like learn behavior and all that. I’m like, I didn’t go, I didn’t bomb anyone. Like, like that was the thing that sucked. I didn’t run upstairs and put on one of my mom’s dresses. Try to be bugs bunny. No. Yeah. The Wiley coyote road runner, there was like no dynamite. Oh yeah. They stopped showing the poof when he hits the bottom, you had a bunch of dynamite though. Was there? Yeah, like he was, uh, at the pool episode, uh, bugs, pretending he was a lifeguard and said no swimming without a buddy. So he, uh, gives a dynamite dummy to Elmer Fudd, Elmer floods grabs him and then he explodes. But what’s, I mean, Hey Randy, for the record, um, Greg chimed in and he’s having a flashback to the whole glory hole discussion, uh, he said, Hey, uh, it’s, it’s been found in semen as well. There’s something I never thought I would have to type screenshot that great, great moments with our members. We, we do what we can, you know, in, in these struggling times. No, that’s what I put, uh, the best response I sought of Elmer Fudd thing was obviously some tweet from somebody who said, I’m sure that Molotov cocktails and milkshakes and pellets of brick would be acceptable to placements being a Molotov cocktails. Did you see that? Uh, closed captioning transcription error where they put a mazel Tov cocktails? Oh my God. That was an amazing picture of the Orthodox Jewish guy. When I was reading the article about, uh, the U S military might be losing the trademark to a space force, Netflix series. Have you watched it? No. I still have not broken down into watched it yet. We, the Orville office is I like to call, um, it’s um, I don’t want to say it’s not good. It’s not what I expected. I’ve heard good things. I’ve heard some good things about like, you know, the problem is with these, with some of these actors is when they be, when they get a little bit too old, they become characters of themselves. Yes. Like, well, and some of them become caricatures of themselves. Yeah. That’s what I just said. Um, Oh, you said, you said characters. I didn’t know if you meant, like they were like here at characatures themselves. You know, like John Malcovich is in this any he’s like, he’s like, um, God, what’s the guy’s name that just got busted for all the porn in Hollywood. It’s like him doing Epstein. John. Malcovich not Epstein all of the actor that was in Kevin Spacey, Spacey thing. It’s like Spacey. It’s like Spacey doing Malcovich like, everything’s not [inaudible]. And it just it’s really it’s Eric doing? Walking. Eric does a good walking notes. It’s like a bad, it’s like a bad person. But like, um, corral is like always going to be corral from the office. Like, yeah. It’s just before the 40 year old Virgin. One of the two. Yeah. Right, right. And it’s not, I went into it wanting to like it. I still might like it again, but it’s like, it was just, it was a tough watch. It really is. Like you had to wait a half an hour for like a good one line. You expect it to be like yuck, yuck, like the office that you would think so. And it wasn’t, it was not the Orville office. All right. Hey, before we, before we roll, Hey, capital one knows life. Doesn’t alert you about your credit card. That’s why they created, you know, the capital one assistant that looks out for surprise credit card charges like over tipping, duplicate charges or potential fraud, then sends an alert to your phone and helps if you need to fix them another way, capital one is watching out for your money. When you’re not capital one, what’s in your wallet. See capital one.com for details. I always want to read the end, like really fast. Like the old micro machines guy have a little one, a little like another thing that went on, like we always talk about TV and crap. I was, I was, dorked like, nothing’s better than formula. If you’re a formula one fan at all. No. Like one out of a hundred races are in the rain. So like Sunday morning, soccer’s over. I flipped ESPN formula one and it’s in the rain and I’m gigged and I’m like sweet. And I’m texting Tulio. I’m guessing there’s a lot more crashes when that happens. Uh, no, it’s just, it just like with the mist and everything, it’s just really cool to watch. It was F in video game. They were televising it and they’re using it in like the cinematic view. So it looked cool. Like I got, literally I got angry. Like I want, you know, not that I want, I’m dying for sports to come back. You know, premier league guy, apparently it’s starting back this week. So I want to see how England is tackling it versus, uh, Germany with this, with the chance in the crowd. I’m hoping that they, uh, learn some tips, um, who does, Oh, Hey. Before I forget, uh, you were, we were talking about the whole space force thing. Um, the reason why the U S government will probably lose, um, any rights to it is that Netflix is smart. Um, and as soon as that project got greenlit, they filed all the trademarks, uh, everywhere for the words, space force. Um, and so, yeah, because why wouldn’t they, uh, and, and yeah, so we’ll, we’ll see how that plays out. That should be, that should be fun to watch. Can you declare eminent domain on a trademark? Well, who’s done space for us since Reagan anyway, or what did he call it? What did Reagan that was star Wars. That was star Wars. That was actually called star Wars. Did you see, what did the article I sent the movie called? Was it star scream? God bless it. Oh, no. You a star crash 1978. You through that. And I, I saw it like I it’s on Amazon prime if I recall correctly. Yes. So the reason I watched those under my recommended on YouTube, and some guys said that this movies, star Wars stole off this movie, but in actually in actuality, it’s reverse. I was like, yeah, well, cause he have it’s 78. That would be after star Wars. So, yeah. Right. So like, imagine like the it’s so bad. The count is like, from like a, a Mexican spectation station film, like Dracula, like that’s what he looks like. He was almost, um, like, it just it’s. So over the top then there’s David Hasselhoff is the, is the hand solo. Um, the guy that the guy that’s playing Luke is like the greatest American hero, but if he was a meth head, um, and then the princess Leia is like Barbarella, like Playboy playmate and Barbara Allah clothes. And like, it’s so bad. Like the opening, the opening scene is like a crawl. What was that battle beyond the stars? Do you remember that one? No. It had John boy in it. Um, and it had the Valkyrie, which was basically the blonde Elvira in the super revealing dress. Um, yeah, so same. And it was like right out. So yeah, same kind of thing. Doesn’t surprise me. But like the, the, the, the, they tried or they thought that this was like pre star Wars and Lucas stole it. You know what I mean? But like now, like, you know, then they found out it’s done a year after
