“Well I'll be greased and fried! What's the circus doing up in these parts?”The Chiodo Brothers and Their Creature Feature LegacyBefore Killer Klowns from Outer Space, the Chiodo Brothers – Charles, Edward, and Stephen – had already made a name for themselves in the special effects world of the 1980s. With credits on films like Critters and sequences in RoboCop, they were well-versed in creating practical effects and creature designs. Killer Klowns from Outer Space represented an opportunity for them to showcase their skills in a feature-length film, with Stephen Chiodo taking on the role of director. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue the One-and-Done series with a conversation about their 1988 film Killer Klowns from Outer Space.Clowning Around with Horror Tropes and Twisted ExpectationsIn our discussion, we marvel at how Killer Klowns from Outer Space gleefully subverts classic clown tropes, turning seemingly innocent gags into sinister and often grotesque moments. From the balloon animal hunting dog to the shadow puppet T-Rex that devours its victims, the film consistently surprises and delights with its inventive use of clown iconography. However, we question whether the horror-comedy balance always lands, with some scenes leaning more heavily into the absurd than the truly frightening.A Trio of Heroes and the Trope of Incompetent Authority FiguresThroughout our conversation, we explore the dynamics between the film's central trio – Mike, Debbie, and Dave – and how their relationships evolve as they face the alien clown threat. We also examine the trope of young heroes pitted against incompetent authority figures, a common theme in 1950s-era B-movies that Killer Klowns from Outer Space both embraces and satirizes.Other topics we cover include:The memorable performances of the supporting cast, particularly Royal Dano as Farmer Gene Green and John Vernon as the skeptical police officerThe film's vibrant color palette and the effectiveness of the practical effectsThe Chiodo Brothers' continued work in the industry, including their involvement in Team America: World Police and Marcel the Shell with Shoes OnWhy Killer Klowns from Outer Space Endures as a Cult ClassicDespite its status as a one-and-done feature for director Stephen Chiodo, Killer Klowns from Outer Space has endured as a beloved cult classic. Its unique blend of horror and comedy, combined with the Chiodo Brothers' imaginative creature designs, has helped it stand the test of time. While it has some soapy acting and feels of its era, we ultimately find Killer Klowns from Outer Space to be a delightful and entertaining entry in the realm of 1980s horror-comedy. We have a great time talking about it, so check it out then tune in.

The Uncanny is a 1977 British-Canadian anthology horror film directed by Denis Héroux, written by Michel Parry, and starring Peter Cushing, Donald Pleasence, Ray Milland, Joan Greenwood, Donald Pilon, Samantha Eggar, and John Vernon.   Although it is similar to the horror anthologies released by Amicus Productions and could be mistaken as one, it was actually distributed by The Rank Organisation. However, the co-producer was Milton Subotsky of Amicus.   Cat's Eye (also known as Stephen King's Cat's Eye) is a 1985 American anthology horror thriller film directed by Lewis Teague and written by Stephen King. It comprises three stories, "Quitters, Inc.", "The Ledge", and "General". The first two are adaptations of short stories in King's 1978 Night Shift collection, and the third is unique to the film. The three stories are connected only by the presence of a traveling cat, which plays an incidental role in the first two and is a major character of the third.   Its cast includes Drew Barrymore, James Woods, Alan King, Robert Hays and Candy Clark.   Opening Credits; Introduction (1.00); Background History (41.36); The Uncanny (1977) Trailer (42.08); Feature Presentation (44.37); Let's Rate (1:21.14); Introducing the Second Feature (1:35.49); Cat's Eye (1989) Trailer (1:37.12); Lights, Camera, Action (1:38.34); How Many Stars (2:08.26); End Credits (2:26.00); Closing Credits (2:27.28)   Opening Credits– Epidemic Sound – Copyright .

They're klowns. They kill. They're from outer space. Need we say more???

On a new episode of Spooky Tuesday, we're talking about just how craazzy Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988) actually is. Though it may have been under appreciated when it first hit theaters, it didn't take long for this film to find its audience, and its cotton candy cocoons and animatronic aliens quickly helped propel it to cult classic status.

Your dad was right. And when it does, like today, people's lives are made better and the future becomes brighter and the nation can be transformed. That's what's happening happening now. Brian: Hello and welcome to episode 128 of the Clean Energy Show. I'm Brian Stockton. James: I'm James Whittingham. This week I dig into why Japan is not making use of their abundant wind resources. Turns out Godzilla is only partially to blame. Tesla will begin shipping their electric semi truck this year. No word yet if they'll be shipping them via Tesla semi truck. We look at the details for EVs and the new biden climate bill. Small detail not talked about. You have to wear aviators while driving any rebated car. Mazda sold only eight electric vehicles in the month of July. It's a headline and a punchline all in one. All that and more on this edition of the Clean Energy Show. Also this week we're going to talk about an update to the US sending oil to Germany F 150 Lightning towing range for my specific situation of Toyota dent trailer. As big as the biden climate bill is, it's still less than Europe and China. It's not just a Volkswagen cheating on emissions. A Chinese automaker is upping what supercharging speed can be. And it turns out backyard chickens like tasted eggs and Tatted Eggs was the name of the allgirl punk band in my high school. Brian, I just wanted to add something to last week. We were chatting about my new electric bicycle, the ride one up V, two roadster, gravel edition. It does have a smaller battery, which I was saying is one of the main the downsides of it, but you can buy an extra external battery from the company and it clicks into the kind of water bottle spot there on the bike. So for $240 you can buy an extra little battery. What are the stats of that battery, Brian? I do not know the status of the battery. How do I really care? Well, is it a nine volt that you took out of your smoke detector for $200? Or is it actually do something for you? Yeah, it does something. It's a battery the size of a water bottle a little bit bigger. I was talking to you that it was odd because we actually got a press release from Saudi Arabia, from Saudi Arabia arabian energy company boasting about their solar. We've been speculating for a long time because we keep charging in Saudi Arabia whose listed us in Saudi Arabia and if so, send us a message. No one has sent us a message, but someone is listening. By the way, I want to talk to you about shower heads. Why? It's because I just vacationed at your cottage and you're building a new one. And I was thinking all the decisions you have to make, it's like being in a film. What color do you want this car in the background? What color do you want this hat on this extra? Being a director means making countless decisions, actually, until the point where your brain is dead. But you're going to have to make decisions like that on your house because you're building a brand new house. You're going to have to say, I want a faucet. Now. You use your water from a tank, it's shipped in and probably replenished after my family has been there with our desire for showers and cleanliness. Yeah, there's no running water. Everybody has their own cistern, but your tap, when you turn on the tap in your washrooms, it comes out like a fire hydrant. There's nothing restraining it. So I'm thinking, well, first of all, you could probably if you were still going to live there, you could probably buy some sort of aerator to put on. That would be the simple thing to do, just to I mean, we did change the shower head in the guest house to a low flow one because it wasn't before. The showers are the most important. And the toilets, of course, because you want them to be efficient. It's really important. It's not just environmental. It's a matter of conserving water because it's hard to get water. You don't want to run out and keep filling it. Right? Yeah. And we think that we can use kind of a gray water system or we can maybe use rain water or something for the sinks in the toilets. And then I've always wanted I don't know if it's practical for us, but you can get clean drinking water out of the air. They have these things that run, like off the solar panel that just collects moisture from the air and goes through a filter. And that's a possible way to get your drinking water. Yeah. And you don't drink your water out there because you don't trust your tank, right? Yeah. We drink it separate from the water that runs through the house. So that might be a way of getting good drinking water. Hell, I felt my drinking water here in the house, and it's still not great. Is that right? It's still not great. We've got a good filter under the kitchen sink that it's supposed to take out lead. It's like it's the highest level of kind of home water thing, including lead. Oh, that's interesting. I've got an interesting story coming up on lead and chickens buckle up for that one. It's a good story, though. Yeah. So I don't know. And of course, lighting and a lot of people have exterior lighting on their architecture. It's nice to have but is it necessary as it causing light pollution in a provincial park? When you want to see the stars, your star gives it yourself. Are you going to have a driveway? Yeah. Are you going to like the driveway? Yeah. No, those are all great questions. Like, we renovated our kitchen five or six years ago, so we have some taste of what that is like. It's like, yeah, you got to make a decision about the light above the sink. You got to make a decision about the pole handles on the cupboards and the finishes for the cabinets and the flooring, like, what pattern for the flooring and all that. So, yeah, absolutely. Tons of questions to answer. So when I arrived at your cottage, it was a very hot day, and I kind of roasted my fat self a bit broiled, I guess, or deep cooked, or I don't know how you want to put it, a pressure cooked, but I was a bit uncomfortable thinking I got there's no overhangs in this house. The sun is just beating in, but there's no overhangs on my house. Yeah. At all. In fact, there's less overhangs on my house than there is in your cottage. And I seem to manage fine here. I think it's better insulated. I mean, that helps. The right kind of windows help, but the right reflectivity on modern windows helps keep the sun away in the summertime, lets it through in the winter when it's more lower in the sky and a more of a direct angle through the window. So, I don't know. Your architect has come up with a stunning design that is just I really look forward to seeing it like it's just incredibly cool. Yeah. Are you still doing a round window for the bedroom, by the way? I have to ask. No, at the moment it's not round. How come? Probably just matches better if it's not. It's also like, floor to ceiling windows and places. So that's going to be, I mean, in the future, as we said last week with our letter, electricity will be free. It'll be inconsequential that you could heat whatever you wanted to heat or cool whatever you wanted to cool, rather. But right now it could be hard to keep that place cool, depending on how it is in the summer. Yes, I think we're okay because the rest of the walls will be very thick and super insulated, so you kind of allowed a certain amount of glass area before you kind of screw up that envelope. So I think it'll be fine. And then you have presumably, in the round earth construction that you're considering or going ahead with. Is that fair to say? You're going ahead with round earth considering, hopefully. Okay. What's it going to look like? There's no ram, dearth. Then it's going to look like no, that would be a whole different plan. Yeah, we'll see. Well, it's very interesting, though, because the rand earth has sort of stored heat energy. It can take store the cool from the night and let it off slowly. It can store the heat from the day and sort of moderate the house. Now, regardless of how you're making it, if you chose, say, a concrete floor, that would be one way of having heat storage in the house. You might want to go down with a boiler, then that goes through the floor. That's what a lot of people do these days. But then boilers are complicated, as you found out for your rental house. As far as getting heat pumps for them. Yeah, in floor heating seems the most likely. But there are many different ways of heating the liquid that's in your in floor heating. So I don't see that as being a big problem. And then you got to build a podcast studio out there. A little sound booth with good airflow. Well, there's a little kind of home theater room. So I'm hoping that area will work for a podcast. Sure, as long as it has a good view of the lake. Yeah. Then you could shoot yourself as a backdrop then, if you wanted to. Maybe the whole house should be designed around that principle. Brian. I don't know. Anyway, I just wanted to mention that. And another thing I wanted to mention was I was just now looking at the local EV Facebook group as I scrolled through Facebook and I laughed my ass off at something. Somebody bought a brand new EV and they're asking the question that people often ask, where do I charge? What credit cards do I need? Do I need an account with people from different charges? And this is Western Canada, by the way. And Cam Roger responded to this person and said that you will likely find the flow card as being the most useful, as well as charge point to experience the reliability of a Petrol Canada charging session, purchase a lottery ticket. That is to say, your chances of it working are about the same as winning the lottery. I do like a bit of sarcasm, especially when you're angry at something. That really makes me feel good to read that. Some updates to some previously discussed stories. I wanted to mention to our listeners that Connecticut has a new law that EV chargers have to be repaired properly. However, I can't find any information on it. I saw it mentioned on Twitter by someone reliable and I can't find it again. So if you know about Connecticut having a recent law that ensures that EV chargers are repaired within a certain time frame, send me an email cleanenergyshow@gmail.com, because we'll talk about it later. Yeah, I'm sure we have at least one lesson in Connecticut. And my friend Mike mike Noblock bought his first EV. He bought me Ionic Five and I asked him how's it going? He had it for, I think about ten days or so now, and he says it's awesome. It's everything I hoped for and more. It's really fun to drive. Accelerating up to speed so quickly is fun every time you do it. And Mike is not a race car driver, but he's finding this fun. He's a reasonable guy. The ride is really smooth and the seating is very comfy. It's insanely quiet and love charging at home instead of going to a gas station, which is something that people don't realize. People worry about where you're going to charge it all the time. But the fact is you don't take your cellphone to a gas station to charge. It's really cool to do it at home. Imagine we didn't do that. Okay. An update to the ongoing dispute with Germany and Russia. There is a pipeline supplying oil from Russia to Germany, and this is kind of important for Germany. And we've just been keeping tabs on how that's going. There's a second tanker of crude oil coming from America to help kind of fill in the gaps. So 570,000 barrels is due in Germany soon. And this is the second shipment from the US. To help bridge the gap. And Germany is hoping to reduce their reliance on Russian oil and gas by about 90% this year. So let's hope they can manage that. Well, you know, inflation is starting to slow down, at least here in Canada. We had the latest numbers. Yeah. And the price of gas has come down. It's amazing how if everyone drove an EV, it wouldn't be affecting inflation as much. Right. You still have to pay for goods. Goods will go up in price because gas with trucking and so on, until we get long haul trucking sorted out with electrification, which is coming. And Biden is about to sign the inflation reduction as we speak, right? Yes. We've been talking about this for a couple of episodes now. This is a massive, massive bill in the US. I always forget what it's called. What's it called? The Inflation Reduction Act or the IRA. Yeah. And you expect it to be called something like the Carbon Reduction Act. Biden climate bill for is what some people call it, climate bill. But there's a nice article on Bloomberg this week, and it's called the Inflation Reduction Act is a Climate bill, just don't call it one. So it's just a nice little article here about the kind of the vagaries of politics and the importance of naming these bills. It's like governments can kind of force the conversation in certain directions by calling it something they used to just follow boring naming conventions for these kinds of things. But they realized some years ago that PR is an important part of this. It sort of reminded me of do you remember when Walmart was kind of coming into Canada? Like about 30 years ago, walmart came into Canada and really started kind of taking over town to town. They were building Walmarts and putting kind of our local stores out of business. And it was obviously a huge change and a huge thing. A lot of people were upset about it. And it's like this big, massive corporation moving in to take things over. And what did they do? They started these TV commercials. I don't know if you remember this, but it was like they started featuring individuals that worked at Walmart, the Walmart Greeters and the Walmart Cashiers. And they kind of made it sound like it was a small town store. Like it was like the people that work at Walmart are just like your neighbors because they are your neighbors. And there were commercials that focused on exactly the opposite of what Walmart actually is, which is a giant corporation. And it was kind of annoying and sickening. But it's like, well, that's the world of PR. That's kind of how this goes. So the other aspect of that I wanted to kind of mentioned, which we just touched on briefly is so, yes, it is called the Inflation Reduction Act. Is that what it's actually going to be or do? And so there was an analysis that suggested that 41% of our current inflation is attributable to fossil fuel prices. So if this can bring down the price of fossil fuels, bring down the demand of fossil fuels, then, yeah, it actually should reduce inflation. So as you were talking, I looked up a list of ridiculous US. Legislation names that have nothing to do with one, and the Zero Tolerance for Barbaric Cultural Practices Act was one. Okay, well, I think that was one in Canada. Actually. That is one in Canada. Serious time for the most Serious Crime act. The Unborn Victims of Crime Act. Yeah. So that was an abortion related one in the States. It gets weirder, too. And ultimately it's just the name of the bill. Whatever's in the bill obviously, is the important thing. So the other thing I just wanted to mention, which again comes from Bloomberg, our new best friends over there at BNEF, and they crunch the numbers in terms of this new climate bill in the US. And it's $374,000,000,000, which is a lot of money. But their conclusion and these numbers are always kind of difficult to calculate because what's being done by government, what's being done by private. So it's always a bit fuzzy on the numbers. But their conclusion was that this is a really good spend, but the EU and China are spending a bit more than the US. Is with this climate bill. Is that right? Well, that's interesting. Yeah. China being the biggest spender right now on clean energy transition. Getting back to the naming of this act, though, I think there was a column in the New York Times yesterday about how climate has become part of the culture wars. If you're woke, you care about the climate. I don't understand. A little bit worried about where the world is going. In fact, I'm a lot worried where the world is going. Also. I think just today people were sharing a Global mail article that was a Canadian national newspaper about the F 150 all electric lightning pickup trucks, two of them being owned in the prairies here where we live, including one here nearby, Brian and I, and we've mentioned him on the show before I assume the Globe listens to our show. I assume everybody does high ups in Saudi Arabia. Biden's probably listening right now. I know. Sure. So this guy's Lightning says he can this was interesting to me because I've been interested in facts about my own use scenario because I imagined only to pick up traffic and Holly, my tent trailer, my pop up camper, as some people call him, and he says he has one, he's got almost about as big as a Pawpaw trailer as you can have. He says he got 600 km driving around the city of Range, but 330 on the highway with that large pop up camper. So that gives me valuable information as a person who may want to do that in the future. Yeah, that's a good indication of the actual reality of it. Because towing reduces the range by a lot, apparently. But, you know, if I just drove our SUV, gas powered SUV, to the lake, if I towed my Camper, it would have half the range. It would have half the range as well. So that's not bad. I was thinking, oh, you'd have to charge every hour and maybe it'd be worth it because it costs so much, but that's every 3 hours. You don't want to stop that anyway, right? I stopped an hour and a half just to put more oil in my damn engine. Which you won't have to do in an EV. Praise the Lord. My God. I hate that. Yes. No, I had a Nissan Sentra where we had to drive it with a bunch of extra cans of oil, which I put in that movie where we shot at that gas station. I was thinking of putting a hose with a funnel on it inside the cabin so I could just add while I drive. That would be great. Oh, yeah, and one other personal update I forgot about. So I drove my Tesla up to Saskatoon, to the nearest Tesla service center because I had an issue. The suspension started squeaking and the steering wheel was squeaking. So, yeah, they replaced the I should find the exact name of it here. Just give me a second. Is duhickey and the wording at all schmengee. They told me that the left front upper control arm ball joint had seized. So they replaced that one and proactively replaced the other one as well, which it was still working fine. But I think this is probably an issue that they've experienced before. So they went and replaced the upper control arm ball joints, the left and right on the front. Yeah, it took about 3 hours. It's a two and a half hour drive to get up there to start with. But I got there first thing in the morning and they gave me a Tesla Model X as a loaner to drive around town while I was there. I may go up there this weekend. Do you think they'll give me one for no reason. No, I don't think they will. This is from Drive Tesla, Canada. And this is just our opportunity to mock Mazda or Mazda, depending on where you live in the world. Only sold eight of their electric cars in the US in July of 2022. This is a very sad and pathetic number, but it really is, I don't know, a compliance car. I don't know who would buy this or why. It's only got 100 miles, range 160 km. Somebody who really likes Mazda. Someone who really likes Mazda. And I could see it maybe, I don't know, certain business case situations where you're making short little trips or something, but this is not much range than your 25th. You should buy one just to sell because it's going to be such a rarity if they stop making yeah. Like the actual numbers. This is going to be one of the most rare cars you could possibly own. That's incredible. Yeah, they've got a very short range. The reminiscent of the early Leafs, right? Absolutely. No, this is similar range to your car. Yeah. Why would you do that nowadays? My car was made a lifetime ago. So I'm going to have some details here. But the inflation Reduction act for EVs, because we didn't get into details about this, consumer Reports broke it down the other day. So, among other provisions, the new bill will do the following. It offers a tax credit up to $4,000 on used EVs. This is new, but they have to be put into service after December 31 of next year. December 3118 months from now. The vehicles built and registered 18 months from now will be possible to buy them used with a $4,000 credit. So that's a ways off. It takes away the $200,000 vehicle cap on tax credits that made EVs and plug in hybrids from Tesla, GM and Toyota ineligible for tax cuts because they've sold more than 200,000 of those vehicles in the United States and have used up their tax credits. So, people, that's one reason why GM dropped the bolt price by $6,700, you asked or something to make up for that. Because Tesla doesn't care. Because they have way more demand than they can do. But it does away with tax credits for pricey EVs. This is something that we see criticized locally here in Canada in the news. Why are you giving tax credits to 150,000 more cars like the Model X or something? So it doesn't weigh with today's tax credits for price EV such as the Hummer EV, the Lucid Air, Model S and X, and Poll Star, I would imagine, and Porsche and stuff like that, it eliminates tax credits for vehicles not assembled in North America. This is a critical one here because this is going to eliminate the tax credit for the BMWs, the Hyundai Ionic five, the Kia EV six, the Toyota BZ four, X not assembled here. Maybe one day they will be because like Nissan with my car. They did two years in Japan and then they opened up a factory in Tennessee and one in the UK. Maybe they'll do that and maybe they'll be selling a lot more vehicles. But most important, the bill also immediately restricts the full tax credit on new EVs to vehicles with battery minerals sourced from countries that the US has a free trade agreement with, or recycled in North America. So you can buy a car that has recycled batteries if they're recycled in North America, but you can't buy Chinese ones. So starting in 2024, if any materials, minerals or components are sourced from foreign entities of concern, you know who you are, china and Russia, the vehicle will not qualify for tax credit. So that is tricky. We're going to continue to talk about that, Brian, because nobody seems to know how that's going to wash out. Yeah, because it could be difficult to ramp that up, because I think China in particular is kind of the world leader in sourcing these minerals and processing them. And so it does make sense that we often talk about energy security. I mean, if you've got to rely on shipments of oil from places like Russia, you realize suddenly when they go to war, oh, man, that was a really bad idea. All this stuff impacts the security of your country if you can't source it yourself locally and Russia start going to war. Stupid idiots. Yeah. Please stop that. The Tesla semi truck is going to ship this year, Elon Musk announced on Twitter, and it's going to have 500 miles of range. And the Tesla Cyber truck with 500 miles of range is going to start shipping next year. So this is a fairly definitive statement. We've been really wondering when electric semi trucks are going to finally start rolling. There's still not much in terms of semi truck charging infrastructure, so I'm still expecting to hear more about that. We've only heard of a handful of places that have the new Tesla semi charger infrastructure for charging. So this will be kind of a slow roll out, I think, because of that, because of the lack of charging infrastructure. But they can probably, in some cases, charge at the existing Tesla chargers. But trucking is a huge part of carbon emissions, so once semis all go electric, this is a massive step forward in carbon reduction. I'm looking forward to the next cyber truck event where they update the preproduction, what's actually going to really happen for real. And we'll notice back the costs. The cost might go up. Yeah. No, they pulled the prices down off their website several months ago amidst this massive inflation that's happening. But I wouldn't be surprised if the prices are double what they were originally close to. That so much for my order. Yeah. One day, Brian. One day. My son and I have often discussed Japan. I can't remember the details of why, but we have this long discussion. I said, well, one day I'm going to look into why Japan has no wind. He says, Why don't they do wind? Because he thinks they don't have any wind because nuclear is so great. While they shut down their nuclear, they're bringing it back tepidly a little bit at a time. But when they had their Fukushima disaster, they shut down a bunch of their nuclear. It's easy for us to say nuclear is safe, but when you're there and you're experiencing what they did, you're going to probably have a different opinion. So I looked at the reason. I finally found an interesting paper and article about this year and a half old. It says that there's limited understanding of the seabed conditions surrounding Japan, unlike other locations such as the United Kingdom, because they benefited from oil and gas exploration for decades. Right. So in that north coast there, off of Europe, lots of oil and gas exploration for decades. So they understand it. Now, there's another benefit to oil and gas, is just understanding the seabed for. So they have a limited understanding of what the seabed even is because they don't go down there looking because there's not oil and gas there. It is the 7th longest shoreline in the world. So there's lots of wind opportunity there. Another reason they've been slow is conservative government policies. Lots of different departments not working together. They actually permitted some wind projects that were three years long and kelsey breeze, there was no bitters. This is a 40 year thing, Brian. Another problem is their water gets very deep very quickly, down to 200 meters. It's only 50 meters close to the shore, but after a while it gets down to 200 meters, which is quite too deep for offshore wind. But there's new technology around that wasn't there ten years ago, including floating. So there's a huge opportunity for floating wind potential. And the wind potential, to my surprise, is not great on Japanese land. Not that great at all. So the best potential is in the ocean. Another setback or drawback is that most of the wind potentials in the north with is less population. So you have to unfortunately send that power. I wonder if they couldn't do it through the ocean. If you were in Japan and you had a whole bunch of wind in the north, all these countries are doing undersea DC high power cables, maybe because nothing gets disturbed. You just drop it on the seabed and you don't have to build towers and bridges and do land studies. You just drop it down there and nobody gets hurt. Not even a fish. Fishing concerns. They're concerned about fish. The nuclear disaster, as you said, they temporarily shut down 54 power plants, which is a lot I don't even know. They began shipping coal and natural gas. That's no way to go, but that's not good for the planet. So Fukushima was a turning point. For the nation's attitude towards nuclear power as the associated risks and costs and costs became apparent. We always talk about the cost of nuclear. And even though a limited number of reactors are being restarted, it's unlikely that nuclear power will ever return to such a dominant position in the Japanese energy mix. So, yeah, the water depth drops to 200 meters, around 20 offshore. So you have a little bit of space to work with. And nevertheless, Japan has a large resource potential. This is a study done with the potential of win of 61 gigawatts in relatively shallow waters. That's just the shallow water potential. It's not floating there or anything like that. And remember, a gigawatt is about a nuclear reactor, so you might say, James, the wind doesn't always blow well on the ocean. It does in some places. It does almost around the clock. And by the way, this is a bit of an aside, but the first North American freshwater offshore wind farm will be in Lake Erie. Did you hear about that? Yes, I did hear a little something, yeah. So, Lead Co asserts that the Great Lakes hold enough energy potential in wind to power the entire stinking United States. The winds of Lake Erie alone could meet over 10% of the electricity needs by 2030. Just in Lake Erie. Lake Erie is not a big lake. Lake Erie is a small lake. But, yes, Chicago, the Windy City and all these places, there's wind out there and terrible polluted waters that you could stick wind turbines in, and they're not so deep that you can't do it. That's interesting. I wondered when that's going to happen. Well, I would wonder about the I don't know, unsightliness of it. It makes more sense to me if they're off in the ocean. People might be annoyed if the Great Lakes are full of wind turbines, but I don't know. Hard to say. Now, I'd be interested to know what the distance is. Maybe one of our listeners can send in an answer to this. What is the distance where wind turbines start to fade? Not from the curvature of the Earth, but just the atmosphere sort of blurs them out? Because you see ships offshore in the ocean, they're kind of faded. They're barely visible because even on Toronto, off Toronto, you see them like that. So how far do you have to go before it's an ISO? I guess it's my basic question. Yeah. And farther out would be better. As long as it doesn't get too deep, I guess. Okay. There is a story here. I got this from CNET, and the story is a couple of weeks old, but I thought it was worth talking about it because we didn't mention it before, but Fiat Chrysler has been ordered to pay $300 million in fines over their diesel emissions fraud case. So it's not just Volkswagen that was cheating on emissions. Fiat Chrysler, which is now owned by Stallantis 300 million in fines for lying about the emissions of more than 100,000 Jeep and Ram diesel vehicles. So this was been going on since 2017. They were first accused of doing this, and it takes a long time for this kind of stuff to wind its way through the courts, but it has finally come down and they are guilty. And it's 300 million is the penalty. The US Department of justice this week announced that FCA has been sentenced in federal court to pay about 300 million in criminal penalties in addition to serving three years of organizational probation. What do you suppose that is? Organizational probation? Probation for the organization, I guess. Oh, wait, I think we have a clip. The time has come for someone to put his foot down, and that foot is me. Then as of this moment, they're on double secret probation. Ah, that's what it is. They're on double secret probation. What movie is that from? I was wondering if you would recognize it. Is it a Naked Gun related movie? No, it's Animal House. Oh. And it's extra fun because that's the great Vernon Agapsawitch, known to the world as John Vernon, who is from our city of Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. Yeah, but yeah, I just always remembered that clip of double secret probation. He passed away a few years ago. Yes, not that long ago. And he ended up making a movie here and late in his career before he died, which was nice. I forget the name, but it had Molly Parker and Callum Keith Rennie was in it. It was shot. I visited the set one day. I actually took pictures of John Vernon on the set of this kind of western. That's really cool. But Brian, it's time. It's time. It's time for the clean energy show. Lightning around. A fast look of the rest of the week's headlines in clean energy and climate change. Brian, where has the time gone? China's CATL plans a massive 220 1 battery factory in East Hungary. Yeah, because why? It's Tuesday or Wednesday or Thursday. It doesn't matter. Because there's a new day, there's a new $7.5 million battery factory every week. The planet will be capable of outputting 100 gigawatt hours of batteries a year. That is 100 nuclear reactors powering for an hour per year from this battery factory. And Mercedes Benz has already gone on record stating that it will be its first customer. You know what the sound is? Time for a clean energy show. Fast fact. Charging your electric car at home costs equivalent of or less, which is about a dollar 20 a gallon. Tesla is reportedly going to build model wise with BYD blade batteries in a gigafactory Berlin. What do you think, Brian? Because I'm kind of curious. Yeah, this is interesting. This is a battery form factor that Tesla has never used before. But since Tesla's goal is to dominate the Earth, they're really buying and using whatever possible batteries they can get their hands on. So BYD has been making these blade batteries, which are not exactly blade shaped, but they come in these sort of flat panels and they're all kind of packed together in a battery pack. So, yeah, I guess Tesla has figured out how to stuff those into their vehicles. So I don't know. It should be good. More supply batteries, the better. Oh, it's another fast fact. And this brings us back to backyard hens, which I've been waiting to talk about. Yeah. Backyard hens eggs contain 40 times this is backyard hen in cities, okay, not in farms, contained 40 times more lead, on average, than shop eggs. You think you're growing your own eggs and they're healthier? No, that doesn't sound good. It depends on the lead levels of your soil, where you live, which vary across various cities and then vary within the city. In older homes, close to city centers, contaminated soils can greatly increase people's exposure to lead through eating eggs from backyard hens. And I was thinking, again, a chicken Brian, because they make good pets. Sorry. Most lead gets into the hens as they scratch the dirt and peck food from the ground. Can you imagine the lead levels where I live? I've got a refinery, I've got a smelter over yonder. I mean, it's not good at all. It's probably not good. And if any of our listeners, if you have hands and you're eating the eggs, maybe they're somewhere nearby where you can get them tested, maybe good advice, because I think that there probably is somebody listening to our show or some people, and they're going to be soiling their pants right now and not very happy about that because I know you don't want to talk about it. It's just that bad. It's one of those things that I came across that I thought was important from carbon tracker. The UK government's Oil and Gas Authority has estimated the total bill for Northeast oil decommissioning will be £51 billion. Now, because of the government's tax policy, the British taxpayer will be responsible for at least 40% of that cost over the coming decades. This is something we're going to be talking about a lot. It is. The reality of gas going away. We are going to get stuck with the bill, aren't we? Yeah. And there's been a lot of talk in the UK lately. There's some sweet tax deals for oil and gas companies in the UK. They're getting a bit of a free ride, which is unfortunate. California has adopted 2045 as an offshore wind target plans on installing 25 gigawatts by that time. That is, again, 25 nuclear reactors worth of almost I mean, not quite, but optimistically, if the wind never stopped, that's what they would be. And just as a comparison, it's not insignificant. That is a lot, a lot of power by 2045. So Xpeng is releasing its S four superchargers. This is a chinese EV manufacturer. They've just announced their S Four superchargers on Supercharger Day. That's not Tesla supercharger day. That's a Chinese company. They've opened 1000 superchargers so far in China, and they say, and they demonstrated this with their new model of car, 210 km, or 131 miles of charging in range and five minutes of charging. And they demonstrated that. So ten to 80% of a full modern large battery in as little as 20 minutes. This is an 800 volts class EV charger with a peak power output of 480 kw, which I think is probably around where we're going to stop as around there. I don't think we're going to go I don't think we need to, really? Yeah. And you always wonder at a certain point it will maybe degrade the batteries if you end up charging too quickly. But I think those figures are we probably don't need to go faster than that. And with new battery chemistries allowing for stronger and stronger charging and things like that, who knows what's going to happen?

And to learn all of the lessons, not just about the drone, those are the things we kind of knew…You can build all of these amazing technologies and apps, but like any other agile and innovative company, all of the lessons you learn actually happen when you start doing it.” John Vernon, (31:27)“Our culture really aligns well with Walmart's. Ours is about doing it safely and then growing it appropriately…By being associated with Walmart, I don't think we were looked at as sort of this rogue drone company that's going to start flying all over, but we were partnered with Walmart and therefore we were expected to behave like Walmart, and just by virtue of our culture and how we operated, we did.” Tom Walker, (32:48)“Make no mistake about it…Northwest Arkansas is very very innovative. It's interesting because in some ways it still has the laid back feel of the parts of Arkansas that I used to really like; it wasn't a super fast-pace; it didn't feel that way. But if you look at the innovation that's going on around here…It's almost like this subtle underground community of hyper-innovation that's super impressive for the area.” Tom Walker, (34:33)“I think that sense of accomplishment overcomes the fear, uncertainty, or doubt of what's going to be next. Focusing whatever you can do to be the best that you can be in the moment that you're in has really been an enriching experience for everybody involved, and I think in emerging industries, it's another drawing factor that brings people in and helps people feel like they're a part of something that's more than just a day-to-day job.” John Vernon, (52:15) “Keep humble. I wouldn't say ‘Be humble,' it's ‘Keep humble.' We've come a long way but we've got a long way to go…I think more than anything, especially with the growth that we've experienced over the last year, it's very easy to get caught up in the big number that you see around growth and people count, but its also very humbling.” John Vernon, (55:06)
