Juanmari Rekalde nos cuenta anécdotas y detalles del Cuauhtémoc, el buque escuela mexicano siniestrado en Nueva York, construido en el astillero bizkaino Celaya. El velero Krait ha arribado a Fidji después de una travesía de 9 días desde Nueva Zelanda. Charlamos con Ivana y Carlos, sus armadores, para que nos den los detalles de una travesía de las más complicadas que existen para los navegantes transmundistas. Ana Claver, escritora, navegante, botánica y cantante. Nos visita de nuevo para presentarnos el disco SIEMPRE ES EL MAR, con las canciones que, entre ella y el guitarra, productor y cirujano, Cristophe Bacher, acaban de presentar. La Autoridad Portuaria de Las Palmas ha iniciado una ofensiva legal para echar de sus atraques a las embarcaciones cuyos patrones y/o armadores viven a bordo. Las razones parecen ser el deseo de aumentar los márgenes para una explotación turística de la infraestructura pública.

A través de los libros hemos visitado mares que jamás navegaremos. Pero los relatos marítimos también nos han ayudado a romper nuestros límites y cumplir sueños, a aprender del Océano o, simplemente, a disfrutar de la lectura. Charlamos de sus últimos lanzamientos con Tomy Pelluz, de Editorial Almayer. La tripulación del velero KRAIT arribó hace seis meses a Nueva Zelanda. Hoy despedimos a Ivana y Carlos cuando ponen de nuevo rumbo norte, e inician la segunda mitad de la vuelta al mundo a vela. Gabi Pérez es uno de los meteorólogos especializados en navegación más reputados de Europa. Le abordamos con un montón de preguntas: ¿cómo usar las aplicaciones de meteo? ¿se están recrudeciendo los fenómenos adversos? ¿cómo preparamos una navegación de varios días? Terminamos con más literatura: Jorge Ríos nos trae un libro que nos anima a perdernos en el LABERINTO MAR. La periodista Noemí Sabugal nos invita a un variadísimo y maravilloso viaje por "la vida y la historia de nuestras costas".

Realizar un viaje de miles de millas, atravesando dos océanos, ha llevado al KRAIT hasta Nueva Zelanda. ¿Habrá valido la pena semejante esfuerzo? Aunque los buenos viajeros disfrutan en el tránsito ¿ha respondido aquel destino a las expectativas de la tripulación? Retomamos la expedición del BÉLGICA a la Antártida, en 1897, pero esta vez de la mano de un libro. Jorge Ríos nos presenta UN MANICOMIO EN EL FIN DEL MUNDO, del periodista estadounidense Julian Sancton. La flota de la Vendée Globe se reparte entre dos océanos: el grueso de ella sigue en el Índico mientras los de vanguardia surcan ya las aguas del feroz Pacífico. Kiku Cusí repasa con nosotros la mítica regata en su edición 2024/25. Se cumplen 60 años del hundimiento del mercante SAN PATRICK y de la trágica pérdida de toda su tripulación. Bizkaia sufrió especialmente con aquel suceso. Hablamos de ello con Pedro María Altuna.

La tripulación del KRAIT nos relata la última y temida parte de la travesía desde Panamá a Nueva Zelanda. Ivana Gaitán y Carlos Valero -con el apoyo en tierra de Aitor Ellebogen- han arribado a puerto y cierran así la mitad de su proyectada vuelta al planeta. La flota de la Vendée Globe -regata de vuelta al mundo en solitario y sin escalas- sigue ganando latitud sur en su primera semana de navegación. Con Kiku Cusí analizamos estos primeros días de competición. CATSHARK es una plataforma de científicos y comunicadores creada para promover el conocimiento y la defensa de rayas y tiburones. Claudio Barría, impulsor de la organización, se embarca hoy con nosotros para hablarnos de ello. Las navegantes oceánicas son la punta de lanza de un movimiento global que promueve la participación en igualdad de las mujeres en la náutica deportiva. Aina Bauza nos presenta una iniciativa que nace para apoyar a las más jóvenes y facilitarles el acceso a la navegación de alto nivel.

En el programa anterior dejábamos a los tripulantes del KRAIT, Ivana y Carlos, fondeados en el Reino de Tonga, esperando la llegada de un frente con vientos de más de 50 nudos. Hoy vuelven para relatarnos aquella noche a bordo... Toni Forqués es el director de los Ocean Power® Watersport Photography Awards, un concurso internacional de fotografía centrada en los deportes náuticos, que en esta edición ha batido un nuevo récord de participación y calidad. Silvia Marcé y Tomás Trueba son parte del equipo de regatas del RCMARSC que en los próximos días disputarán en Argentina el Campeonato del Mundo de la mítica clase SNIPE. María del Mar Alonso, del IHOBE, sociedad pública de gestión ambiental del Gobierno Vasco, nos resume algunas de las cuestiones que se han tratado en la jornada ‘La adaptación del litoral de Euskadi como defensa frente al cambio climático’.

Un potente temporal azotará esta noche un atolón del reino de Tonga, en el Pacífico. Fondeado en él está el velero Krait y a bordo, Ivana Gaitán y Carlos Valero. Conectaremos con ellos para que nos cuenten cómo se preparan ante los vientos de más de 50 nudos en un lugar que, por remoto, no tiene ni puerto, ni servicios de rescate u hospitales. ¡ATENCIÓN! NO ME APLASTES es una iniciativa de ciencia ciudadana que puso en marcha, hace ya dos años, un equipo de científicas de la Estación Marina de Plentzia. El microcosmos que habita entre los granos de arena de nuestras playas es el protagonista principal. Javi Larrañaga nos relata la singladura de su velero, el Pacific, por aguas de las Marquesas y Tuamotu. Un rincón del Océano repleto de contrastes, costas escarpadas y arenales que apenas sobresalen de la superficie completan el paisaje de un escenario mítico. Jorge Ríos nos presenta un libro entre el ensayo periodístico y la autobiografía: UN INMENSO AZUL, de Patrick Svensson. El autor recorre el océano y sus recuerdos de niño, aclarándonos que ama la Mar pero que no la frecuenta.

Zarpamos con una historia sobrecogedora que nos acerca la periodista, Lara Graña, de El Faro de Vigo: la desaparición de una trabajadora de un buque del CSIC, Carmen Fernández. El velero KRAIT ha llegado al mítico REINO DE TONGA, en el Pacífico. Ivana Gaitán y Carlos Valero, sus armadores, han visto así cumplida una de las singladuras más difíciles desde que zarparon de España. Nos hacen una crónica junto a Aitor Ellenbogen, que le ha ayudado a completar su aventura desde tierra. ¿Sabemos dónde y cómo ha sido capturado el pescado que consumimos en Europa?¿Respeta el pescado que se importa de terceros países las mismas normas, legales y sanitarias, que exigimos a nuestra flota? De ello charlamos con Ignacio Fresco Vanzini, de OCEANA.

The crew and community spend an awful lot of time celebrating the new look of the Type 8 - greebles and all.

Last time we spoke about operation Se-Go and the continued drive on Finschhafen. The evacuation of Kolombangara, designated operation Se-Go showcased how the Japanese were becoming experts at large scale evacuations. Nearly 10,000 men were safely evacuated from Kolombangara at the cost of some barges. Then in New Guinea, the Allies became aware the taking of Finschhafen was not going to be a cake walk. In fact Wootten sent word to the other commanders that he believed he was facing the full 20th division at Finschhafen. The other commanders were sending their men through the Ramu and Markham valleys finding rearguards everywhere they looked. Rivers and ridges were being taken at a quick pace and Finschhafen was technically seized, but certainly not secured. Now the allies would have to attack the stronghold of Sattelberg. And Today we are going to see some action upon land and sea. This episode is the naval battle of Vella Lavella Welcome to the Pacific War Podcast Week by Week, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson. But, before we start I want to also remind you this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube. Perhaps you want to learn more about world war two? Kings and Generals have an assortment of episodes on world war two and much more  so go give them a look over on Youtube. So please subscribe to Kings and Generals over at Youtube and to continue helping us produce this content please check out www.patreon.com/kingsandgenerals. If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel you can find a few videos all the way from the Opium Wars of the 1800's until the end of the Pacific War in 1945.  The Japanese had accomplished another astounding evacuation, managing to pull out nearly 10,000 men from the marooned and isolated Kolombangara. They managed this with limited craft and boldly under the nose of the enemy who enjoyed superiority over land, air and sea. Yet as you can imagine this certainly showcases how the tide of the war in the south pacific had decisively turned. Japanese naval operations were becoming increasingly concerned with evacuating troops as their positions grew hopeless. The campaign for the central solomons was falling apart for Japan, the invasion of Bougainville was imminent. However because of the evacuation of Kolombangara, one of its results would be the establishment of a staging base for barges and landing craft over at Horaniu, the northeast shore of Vella Lavella.  Now in  last episode we spoke about the actions of the Tsuruya unit who were busy delaying Brigadier Potter's New Zealander forces. The Japanese had their backs against the wall at Marquana Bay, holding by just a threat. They had little food or ammunition left with no possibility of re-supply or reinforcements. Despite insufficient resources, Admiral Samejima was determined to rescue the doomed Tsuruya unit. Samejima managed to convince Admiral Kusaka to carry out yet another evacuation, this time of Vella Lavella, slated for the night of October 6th. Before dawn on the 6th, Admiral Ijuin departed Rabaul with 9 destroyers divided into three groups. The first group led by Admiral Ijuin consisted of the Akigumo, Isokaze, Kazagumo and Yugumo. The 2nd group led by Captain Kanaoka Kunizo was aboard Fumizuki accompanied by Yunagi and Matsukaze and a transport unit of 6 barges, 30 folding boats and the transport Usaka Maru. The third group was led by Captain Hara Tameichi aboard the Shigure with Samidare as backup. A fourth group led by Commander Nakayama Shigoroku consisting of 5 subchasers, 3 vedettes and a barge would also depart Buin to help. Ijuin was to be the strike unit, Kanaoka the transport unit and Hara the Guard unit. Ijuin planned to have Kanaoka and Hara standing off Marquana Bay supported by the incoming 4th unit led by Shigoroku. Further support would be given in the form of 8 floatplanes that would try to bomb Potter's men with 20 zeros providing air cover.  During the morning of the 6th, Admiral Wilkinson received reports the Japanese might be attempting an evacuation of Choiseul. At that time his 10th echelon was underway transporting the IMAC advance base to Vella Lavella, leaving the only available force Captain Frank Walker with destroyers Selfridge, Chevalier and O'Bannon. Walker was just returning from a run up the slot passing by the Russells on his way home. Wilkinson sent word to Walker to pay specific attention to the coast of Choiseul as he passed around. During that afternoon, Admiral Halsey sent an alert to Wilkinson that the Tokyo Express was definitely about to make a run, but it was not to Choisuel, instead it was to Marquana bay. Wilkinson dispatched 3 destroyers from the 10th echelon, Ralph Talbot, Taylor and LaVallete with Commander Harold Larson to reinforce Walker around Sauka point to try and intercept the Japanese. Shortly after sending the orders, Walk received further intelligence. At 7:30pm he learnt that an unknown number of destroyers, 3 torpedo boats and 6 subchasers were enroute, expected to be in the area by 10:30 with an embarkation time of 11:30. At 9:02 he was told that possibly 9 destroyers were coming. A few minutes later another report passed on by some B-25's attacking buin stated they spotted 4 IJN destroyers or possibly Jintsu-class cruisers. Thus pretty uncertain of what was actually out there, Walker's crews were warned to expect the worse and they would sound General Quarters by 7pm. 40 minutes later the 938th seaplanes began harassing them. At 9:50 Walker announced over the TBS “When we round the corner close the gap and be ready for anything. I want to get the fish off without guns if possible.” Wilkinson's reinforcements only made it to the rendezvous point by 11:40, leading Walker to have to start the battle alone. Since the days of John Paul Jones, American naval lore had honored and applauded commanders who unleashed bold attacks on superior enemy forces, but in this case Walker would prove to be too rash.  Walker took his force around the north coast of Vella Lavella that night and began scouting the area finding no sign of the enemy. Meanwhile Ijuins strike force followed by Hara and Kanaoka proceeded to their staging point arrived at 10pm. Minutes later a scout plan reported 4 cruisers and 3 destroyers northeast of Vella Lavella on a western course. The plane most certainly saw the Selfridge, Chevalier and O'Bannon coming up the slot but mistook them as cruisers. Ijuin ordered Konaoka to take his group west towards the Shortlands while he and Hara turned back to meet the enemy. However Hara's force were a bit further west and having difficulty due to mist causing lack of visibility. at 10:30 the Americans made their first radar contact of the enemy and 5 minutes later lookouts aboard the Kazagumo sighted the Americans to their south. Consequently, Ijuin had just turned to port heading southwest to cross Walker's bows, but he misjudged the distance and instead opened the range. Walker responded by increasing his forces speed to 30 knots to try and head off the enemy. Upon seeing this, Ijuin changed his course at 10:45 to south-southeast to close the range, then at 10:48 ordered a 45 degree turn south. These maneuvers actually worked to the Americans advantage, and upon seeing he was presenting an easier target, Ijuin ordered another simultaneous turn to port which staggered his ships in line abreast on a course opposite and nearly parallel to Walker with their range rapidly closing. The maneuvering blunder allowed the Americans to pull up to the nearest group of 4 IJN destroyers and launch a half salvo of torpedoes. Most of the torpedoes were fired at the Yagumo which was being mistaken as a possible cruiser. Commander Osako Higashi aboard the Yagumo ordered 8 torpedoes to be launched before the guns began to fire. The Americans opened fire with their guns after the torpedoes turning Yagumo into a burning wreck quickly. Ijuin tried to course correct again going south then west.  But by this point, Hara had just made it to the battle at 11:01 the Americans saw his forces to their southwest and closed in to engage. This put Hara ahead and parallel to Walker giving the Americans the perfect position to launch another salvo of torpedoes. At the same time one of Yagumo's torpedoes hit Chevalier detonating her No 2 Gun Magazine, blowing the ship in two. Her brigade and aft section swung across O'Bannon's path forcing O'Bannon to ram into her starboard engine room. The force of the collision was mitigated by Commander Donald MacDonald who ordered an emergency full speed astern when he saw the explosion on Chevalier. Two minutes later a torpedo, most likely fired from Chevalier, hit Yagumo. At 11:06, one of Hara's destroyers landed a torpedo hit on the Selfridge, shearing off her bow and wrecking everything from the bridge forward. In just 5 minutes, 104 American sailors were dead and 66 were wounded. Both sides continued the brawl, at 11:17 Ijuin still taking a westward course, ordered torpedoes to be fired at what he thought were cruisers, probably the O'Bannon and Chevalier. He received a claim that one was sunk, so he decided to break off the battle and head for home. Meanwhile Geoerge Peckham aboard the Selfridge believed he had been hit by torpedo boats and wildly ordered men to track where they might be. It was an age old naval case of both sides fighting ghosts ships basically. Meanwhile Commander Nakayama's group began to approach Marquana bay from the north and Wilkinsons reinforcements group led by Larson were arriving from the south as well. At 10:55 Larson had received ordered from Walker to execute “William” which was the codename for torpedoes and “dog” was naval gunfire. Larsons group passed Yagumo who was undergoing her death throes and by 11:40 the group was in the battle area. Larson could not make out a contact on enemy ships and by midnight simply headed for Marquana bay, seeing nothing but crippled ships. Chevalier was beyond saving so she was scuttled, Selfridge was able to be repaired by 3:15am and would make a slow but safe journey home. Walker notified COMAIRSOLS they needed air cover as Nakayama's group passed east of the battle area but did not engage. Japanese barges began to load men as the 938ht floatplane harassed the New Zealanders artillery. Many New Zealanders reported hearing naval gunfire and what sounded like barges scraping against reefs. By 3:10am, Nakayama left for Buin with all 589 men of the Tsuruya unit. The Americans captured 74 survivors of the Yagumo who were marooned at Biloa, while 27 others would make their way to Buin using motorized whaleboats. Ijuin had lost 179 men dead with 74 captured. On October 8th, Potter's men determined the Japanese were indeed gone so they began occupying Marquana bay. Thus ended the battle of Vella Lavella.  The 1st battalion, 27th regiment landed at Ringi Cover on southern Kolombangara on October 6th finding 49 abandoned artillery pieces and some scattered Japanese who had been left behind. By October 15th Admiral Hasley declared operation Toenails terminated. Two days prior the Japanese had likewise terminated operation Se-go. Admiral Samejima would be forced to carry the blame for the loss of the central solomons. He went on the record to say this “The relations between the Army and Navy units in this area were extremely harmonious and satisfactory, and the foregoing is due to the character and judgment of Maj-Gen. Sasaki and Rear Admiral Ōta. However, because of my inexperience in commanding land operations, there were times when I failed to dispatch appropriate orders to Maj-Gen. Sasaki in conducting our operations. And the fact that there is evidence that I left the operations up to the arbitrary decisions of Maj-Gen. Sasaki to some degree clearly reveals the folly of placing a Naval Commander like me in charge of land operations involving Army and Navy units.” In the end his forces managed to hold back the enemy for nearly two months and he had pulled off a pretty incredible evacuation. Operation Toenails was a success for the allies managing to secure 4 new airbases at Munda, Segi, Ondonga and Barakoma. These acquisitions would have a huge impact on future campaigns against Bougainville and Rabaul. Admiral Halsey would receive some criticism for underestimating both the terrain and enemy during operation Toenails. Major General Harmon went on the record to say “Munda is a tough nut –much tougher in terrain, organization of the ground and determination of the Jap than we had thought,.  The Japanese agreed; an intelligence report dated 11 August stated that the “reasons for the slow advance of the enemy in Munda, etc, are due to the courage of our forces and the difficult fighting in the jungle.” The allies learned some important lessons such as the necessity of adequate medial support; the implementation of effective evacuation procedures; close air support for ground troops; the effectiveness of naval gunfire support or lack thereof it; and the 3 most effective weapons against the Japanese; the 155mm gun, tanks and dive bombers. These 3 weapons would be put into effect on Bougainville. The central solomons campaign saw 995 US Army, 192 marine and 500 US navy death with 4407 wounded. The New Zealanders and Fijians received 200 casualties. For the Japanese it was estimated 4000 died with 4500 wounded. Now we need to head over to New Guinea. General Vasey's men were preparing for an assault against Dumpu, while being harassed by the infilitration specialists of the Saito Unit. The Saito units had performed infilitrations against Dakisaria and Marawasa. On October 2nd, while the bulk of the 21st and 25th brigades were establishing bridgeheads to cross the Gusap and Tunkaat river. The 2/7th independent company at this time were trying to cross the Ramu into Kaigulin where a Japanese outpost was. The outpost was guarded by the Saito unit, 80 men of the 10th company, 78th regiment supported by the 3rd company. The Saito unit gave them hell, forcing the commandos to cross the Ramu elsewhere trying to hook around their right flank. They managed to pull the flanking maneuver and in the battle killed 6 Japanese. Interestingly Lt R.D Watts decapitated a Japanese using a katana he had acquired in a previous battle, a case of the turntables. I am now realizing when I make this dumb joke many of you might not have watched the office, I must sound even dumber than I am. The following day, Brigadier Dougherty ordered his men to only patrol as he was waiting for Brigadier Eather's forces to assemble in the Bumbum area. Yes, there is a place called Bumbum, I thought Nuk Nuk would be my favorite New Guinea area, I was wrong.  On the morning of October 4th, Dougherty ordered the 2/14th towards Wampun and the 2/16th to capture Dumpu. By 2pm, Captain C.L McInnes lead a company of the 2/14th to find Wampun deserted which was expected. However the men had marched all day in the heat, without any water. McInnes company was sent to Karam to search for water. Another company followed McInnes company soon after and a mile or so out they came across a banana plantation. They saw some troops cutting down banana leaves and assumed it was McInnes men, however these were actually Japanese of the Saito Unit. The forward patrol were carelessly advancing towards the banana plantation when bursts of machine gun and rifle fire hit Colonel Honner and Sergeant Pryor. Pyror wounded in his chin and chest tried to drag his commanding officer back, but Honnor had taken a shot to the leg and could only crawl. Honnor began screaming to his men to figure out the position of the enemy and this led Private Bennet to lead a small party to do so. The Japanese continued to fire upon them and Honnor was hit in his hand to add to his misery. Luckily for them the 2/14th sent a rescue party to extricate Honnor. Honnor was moved to safety by 5pm as Colonel O'Day prepared to attack the Japanese at the banana planation. At 6pm O'day led two platoons to rush their position where they killed 11 troops and a Japanese officers, driving the rest to flee into the jungle. The next morning they would also kill a few stragglers, the action cost 7 australian lives of the 2/14th while killing an estimated 26 Japanese and taking a single prisoner. Meanwhile the 2/16th had successfully crossed the Surinam River without facing any opposition. They sent a platoon ahead led by Lt Scott to check out Dumpu. At 4:40pm he reported back that it seemed Dumpu was still occupied. Major Symington led forward a company to prepare to attack Dumpu, but when they reached its outskirts they could visibly see Japanese fleeing the area. Thus Dougherty's men grabbed Dumpu without a fight. General Vasey believed 78th regiment had failed to relieve pressure on the retreating 51st division, but unbeknownst to him, General Nakano's men were already marching through the formidable Saruwaged range. The range had an altitude of 3000 meters where temperatures fell below 10 degrees. Anyone who tried to start a fire from the moss-covered wood would find it unbelievably difficult. Many men reported heating gunpowder from rifles to start fires. A lot of rifles were burnt away because of this. Their rations ran out quickly, leading to starving men turning upon the dead….and even the living. Private Kitamoto Masamich recalled “seeing three soldiers had pinned a trooper to the ground while one of them stabbed him in the heart with his bayonet. I watched shocked as the remaining three soldiers cut slices of the dead trooper's thigh and began to devour the human flesh. I shouted at them as flies swarmed about their faces… They had become mad with hunger and fatigue.' Kitamoto covered the corpse and moved on. Cannibalism reared its ugly head often for the Japanese, particularly in some parts of Burma by late 1945.  Until now the 7th division was enjoying a pretty uninterrupted advance to Dumpu. The Benabena was pretty secure as well, but General Nakai was establishing strong defensive positions along the Kankirei saddle. This would soon turn the campaign in the Ramu valley and Finisterre range into a gritty holding operation. In the meantime, the allies were being directed towards the FInschhafen campaign, with General Herring ordering Vasey to hold the Dumpu-Marawasa area. There he was to establish a new landing strip at Dumpu and to not make any large advances. Only the 2/27th battalion of Lt Colonel John Bishop would be allowed to advance into the Finisterre foothills. Dougherty hoped the 2/27th might reach Kumbarum within the Finisterre foothills and during a torrential rainstorm they overran the area with no opposition. Bishops men patrolled around and found the enemy was occupying the key feature guarding the exists of the Faria and Uria rivers from some mountains northwest of Kumbarum. Under the cover of rain, Lt King took 8 men to scramble up the feature which panicked the Japanese there causing them to flee without a fight. Thus it was named King's Hill and would become an important tactical position and observation post. Apparently Kings men had come up just when two battalions were changing their troops dispositions, and a platoon guarding King's Hill had retired before even seeing the allied forces. Regardless a company was sent to the Boganon mountain area, that rose some 41000 feet. The torrential rain caused a ton of delays for the construction of the new landing strip. In the meantime the 21st brigade patrolled as much as they could. The 2/16th and 2/14th patrolled west of the Mosia river finding no enemy. On the 6th, the 25th brigade sent patrols in all directions north of the Ramu Valley. They found signs of the enemy recently leaving the Boparimpum area; the same at Koram. Just a bit north of Koram, it looked like there was a Japanese outpost on some high ground. Patrols took care near this outpost as it was expected Japanese snipers were there, but when further prodded it seemed abandoned. The 2/2nd independent company patrolled the area of Sepu towards the Waimeriba crossing of the Ramu finding only signs the enemy had recently vacated the area. A small patrol skirmished with the enemy between Saus and Usini. Kesawai would be found unoccupied on the 5th. Overall it was concluded the Japanese had abandoned the Ramu Valley entirely.  On the 6th, Generals Vasey and Wootten received a signal that the 2/2nd, 2/4th, 2/6th and 2/7th independent companies would become cavalry commando squadrons which did not sit well with the experienced commandos. Since the beginning of 1943, the term “commando” had been increasingly used to describe a member of an independent company. The term was quite alien to the Australian Army, and the tasks undertaken by independent companies since the beginning of the pacific war were not at all like that of what British commandos did. In the short space of two years, the independent companies had built up a proud tradition  and the men regarded the term “independent company” as a much better description of what they did than the terms “cavalry” or “commando” and thus resented the change of title. The next day, Dougherty's 2/16th battalion occupied Bebei and the 2/27th battalion cautiously investigated the upper reaches of the Uria and Faria river valleys. When the men went past the Faria river towards some high ground they suddenly came across a party of 8 Japanese. A fight broke out as they killed 3 of the 8 Japanese receiving no casualties themselves. The Japanese looked to be withdrawing and the Australians dug in for the night in a place designated Guy's Post atop Buff's Knoll. These prodding actions prompted Nakai to order the 2nd battalion, 78th regiment to launch a counterattack against Buff's Knoll. An hour after midnight during a particularly rainy night, a Japanese platoon charged up the knoll. The first attack lasted about half and hour before petering out. The Australian company consolidated around Guy's Post established a defensive perimeter through out the night. However the night attack ultimately failed for the Japanese as they were not familiar with the terrain and the heavy rain made a mess of their advance. On the morning of October 8th, the Japanese tried to push again while the 2/27th consolidated their position in the Faria area. The Japanese barely budged the Australians and on October 9th, Colonel Bishop ordered the company to advance forward astride the main Japanese route going east towards the Kankiryo saddle. The man at Guy's Post followed them an hour or so behind as they skirmished with Japanese towards Trevors ridge and John's knoll. They would kill roughly 11 Japanese as they occupied both Trevors ridge and Johns knoll. Yet this is all for today on New Guinea as we are going to travel back to the CBI theater who we have not talked about in some time. Going way back to 1942, the Japanese empire had been at its zenith forcing the allies to come up with some special operations such as the Chindits. Our old onion necklace wearing friend Brigadier Wingate was running that show, but General Blamey also created his “inter-allied Services Department” known as the ISD. They were a military intelligence unit formed around several British special operations officers who had escaped Singapore before it hell. Inside the ISD later named the Services Reconnaissance Department, a raiding/commando unit was formed called the Z special unit. They were primarily Australian, but also held some British, Dutch, New Zealander, Timorese and Indonesian members. After escaping places like Singapore, and Sumatra, British Captain Ivan Lyon joined the units and became one of their leaders. He devised a plan to attack Japanese shipping in Singapore Harbor. His plan designated Operation Jaywick, called for traversing to the harbor in a vessel disguised as an Asian fishing boat. Then they were to use folboats or folding canoes to get over to enemy ships and attach limpet mines to them. Lyon was promoted to Major and began rigorous training 17th volunteers at Camp X,  a clifftop overlooking Refuge Bay to the north of Sydney. The men worked for weeks digging, breaking rock and clearing scrub around the campsite and parade ground, which worked as prelude to the long, and progressively longer days they would spent canoeing. There were plenty of route marches across rocky hills which Lyon said “consisted of point-to-point walking or scrambling, compass work, stalking and attacks'. The men were tested on elementary navigation, chart reading, tide tables, visual signaling with semaphore and morse and the use of prismatic compasses on land and sea. They trained using a variety of weapons such as Owen sub machine guns, Brens, Lewis guns, all with the view to shoot down enemy aircraft. The practiced unarmed combat, grenade tossing, limpet mining and gelignite. They also received numerous lectures on ship engines. By early 1943, the 17 men had been reduced to 10. They were then given a captured Japanese coastal fish carrier named the Krait which was powered by a Deutz four cylinder engine, had a beam of 11 feet and a range of 8000 miles with a max speed of 6.5 knots. They modified  the vessel to increase her storage capacity. On August 4th, the Krait departed Cairns en route to the submarine base at Exmouth Gulf on the northwest corner of Australia. On September 2nd, Lyon's commandos began their long and dangerous voyage sailing through the Lombok strait to Singapore. None of the men knew about the plan prior to the attack nor their destination.  It was on the third day that Lyon gathered the men to disclose the truth. ‘He said, “Righto, do you know where we're going?”'Some of the men said they believed it was Surabaya in East Java. After Lyon revealed their destination, Moss Berryman recalled ‘They couldn't believe it when they were told they were going to Singapore “to blow up a few ships”'Lyon could see one or two of the men were stunned at the thought of going so deep inside enemy territory. Jones recalled ‘Nobody expected to be going that far and there was sort of talk about how dangerous it was,'. Lyon reassured the men that wasn't the case. ‘This is not a dangerous trip, it's an experience.' But for anyone who didn't fancy it, Lyon said he understood and he would ‘drop you off at the first island we come to and if you're there when we come back we'll pick you up'. It was a smart psychological play as he knew on one would dare lose face in front of his mates. Lyon stared at their faces and they returned his gaze. No one moved. They were all fully committed. Their safety depending on maintaining the disguise of a local fishing boat, so the raiders stained their skin brown with dye to appear more Asiatic, I guess its sort of like the prime minister of my country on Halloween. Cramped on the Krait, the commandos reached the Java sea and passed the south west corner or Borneo getting 50 miles off her coast by September 14th. The enemy's high activity in the area forced Lyon to detour towards Panjang island with the intention of making their way to Durian island. Yet when they approached Durian island they spotted a observation post so they turned back to Panjang which lies approximately 25 miles south of Singapore.  On september 20th, 6 men on 3 canoes carrying 9 limpet mines each departed the Krait enroute to Singapore harbor. The raiders passed through Bulan and the Batam islands on september 22nd, reaching Donas island the next day. On the 24th Lyon sighted 13 sizable ships in the harbor, so he told the men they would be hitting them that night. Lyon distributed cyanide pills to all the men and told them ‘I leave it up to yourselves to decide what you want to do. But I can tell you now that if you get caught you won't have a very good time of it. They're not known for being gentlemen, the Japanese. Don't delude yourselves in thinking you are tough enough to resist interrogation. You could be tortured enough to give away the whole story. You may not be able to do anything about it. Above all, they had to think of their mates on the Krait. If they fell into enemy hands, the Japanese would want to know how we arrived in Singapore' The men rowed through the capricious tide, but it soon forced them back towards Dongas, instead they moved to Suber island the next day. On the night of september 26th, Lyon's raiders departed again, Canoe 1 held Lyon and Huston; Canoe 2 Davidson and falls and Canoe 3 Page and jones. Canoe 2 would hit the north shipping in Keppel Harbor while 1 and 3 would hit examination anchorage and the wharf at Pulau Bukon. Canoe 2 had the strongest men and was given the additional task of returning to Pompong to rendezvous with the Krait  Canoe 2 steered through an anchored ketch on the edge of the main channel, continuing between the islands of Biakang Mati and Tekukor. They arrived to Keppel Harbor and set their sights on a 6000 ton cargo ship sitting low in the water, indicating she had a full load. The found a second target, also a 6000 ton cargo vessel and a third ship of similar proportions, though the last looked not fully loaded. At 1:15am they attached the last of their 9 limpet mines, 3 per ship and made their escape towards Panjang.  The other two canoes had a much easier paddle from Subar. The tide was running east to west, allowing them to go with ease to their target. The paddled together until 9:30 when they separated. At Pulau Bukom an older freighter was mined amidship and around the engine rooms. Then they spotted a modern freighter with engines after and 3 sets of goalpost masts and another 6000 ton old freighter. Over in Examination Anchorage nothing suitable was found, so the raiders mined a tanker even though it was probably impossible to sink with mines. All 4 ships were mined, the men ate some chocolate rations and made their escape towards Dongas. The ships combined comprised around 39000 tons between them. On the way back, the exhausted commandos heard the distant explosions and the chaos that erupted in Singapore. When dawn broke, in Examination anchorage one ship was partially submerged, while two more would sink and 3 were heavily damaged including the tanker Shosei Mary. Canoe 2 and 3 waited until the commotion died down before returning to Panjang, reuniting with everyone aboard the Krait by October 2nd. Their return back to Australia was relatively uneventful, except for one tense incident in the Lombok strait when a IJN minesweeper approached their ship. The commandos remained cool and the minesweeper simply carried on.   The Japanese would retaliate for what happened during Operation Jaywick. On October 10th, the Kempeitai, those are military police of the IJA for those of you who dont know, you can sort of picture the Gestapo, but not quite the same. They went to Changi Prison in Singapore and began reading out a list of civilian names. These named men were taken away for interrogation, torture and in many cases execution. Over the course of 6 months, 50 Europeans and Australians suffered a brutal inquisition. They were beaten with knotted ropes, electrically shocked, had nails driven into the feet, the old cigarettes burnt onto their hands, arms and on their genitals ouch. They were waterboarded and in total 16 men would die. But no credible information was taken from any of them. The Japanese were far more brutal to the Malays and Chinese. Countless were tortured, interrogated and many executed with their severed heads put on posts around the city. After it was all said and done the Kempeitai filled a report speculating the raid had been carried out by two chinese and one Malay. They didn't believe it and their superiors did not either. The 6 months of horror is known as the Double Tenth Massacre.   There was another unit formed known as the M special Unit, which was a joint Australian, New Zealand, Dutch and British reconnaissance unit formed as a successor to the Coastwatchers. Their role was to gather intelligence on Japanese shipping and troop movements. To do this, small teams were landed behind enemy lines by sea, air and land. One of their first operations was Locust led by Lt Jack Fryer. A group of 4 men departed Benabena overland on January 21st and advance to Lumi airstrip. They formed a base camp thee and began observing the Japanese. In conjunction to Locust was operation Whiting, which was a team of 5 Dutchmen led by Sergeant Huibert Staverman who also departed Benabena to establish a coast-watching station in the hills above Hollandia, reaching Aitape by mid september. Unfortunately the operation would be a catastrophe as the Dutch were ambushed around Aitape. Sergeant Staverman, Corporal D.J Topman, privates H Pattiwal, M Reharing and radio operator Sergeant Len Siffleet were publicly executed at Eitape beach on October 24th of 1943.   Another important development was the Japanese seizure of Macau. Unlike the case of Portuguese held Timor taken in 1942, the Japanese has respected Portuguese neutrality in Macau. However there was a huge influx of Chinese, American and European refugees coming from Guangdong and Hong Kong and this aroused Japanese suspicions. After the fall of Hong Kong, the British had established a clandestine support organization inside Macau trying to gain intelligence on the Japanese in an effort rescue the prisoners from Hong Kong. British army aid group known as BAAG, was under the command of Lt Colonel Lindsay Tasman Ride. They operated out of Hong Kong, Waichow, Guilin, Sanbu, Kaiping, Kunming and other places. They had planned out escape routes from Macau for local Chinese using the route through Shekki or via the sea to a place called To Fuk. Guangzhouwan was another escape route that wealthy Chinese and other nationalities with resources could buy passage through. Another route used a heavily armed motor junk that went to the north west point of Macau, Kong CHung and took them as far as Sam Fau. From there with aid, they could get to Guilin and then Chongqing.    But then a blockade was imposed on the Chinese mainland. Macau's survival depended upon receiving rice and fuel from places like Vichy controlled Indochina and Guangzhouwan, but after the Japanese occupied them Macau suffered critical food shortages. Macau's ships were not allowed to be used by Portuguese to carry food and thus were dependent on foreign ships. On the night of August 18th, the British ship Sian, under Portuguese protection was commandeered by a combined fleet of Japanese and pro-Japanese Chinese run ships, which illegally entered Macau's inner harbor. There was a shootout leading to 20 dead British sailors and the Japanese allegedly discovered that the ship was transporting a shipment of illegal weapons to be sold to the NRA. The next morning Lt General Tanaka Hisakzu of the 23rd army ordered troops across the border who clashed briefly with Macau police forces before Lisbon ordered them to not resist.    Governor Mauricio Teixeira was forced to collaborate with the Japanese who starting in September demanded the installation of Japanese advisors or full blown military occupation. The result was Macau becoming a protectorate. The isolated port city became a center for smuggling and black market activities…which it kinda still is today haha.   I would like to take this time to remind you all that this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube.

Information from The Stew Peters Show. (An interview by Stew Peters with Dr. Brian Ardis)Comments/Discussion by Mike and BenPodcast Email: TheUndilutedTruth.Podcast@gmail.com

The Dragon is Cast Down (3) (Audio) David Eells - 4/17/22   The Origins of Evil Claire Pienaar - 4/12/22 (David's notes in red)   After Riaan and I watched “Watch the Water" from Stew Peters, we hit the floor and prayed and interceded for those family members who have been duped by the Beast System. Then I asked the Lord if this documentary interview with Dr Ardis was true, and received by faith at random, Psa 92:15  To show that Jehovah is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him. I closed my eyes and had a vision. I saw a big needle, and the scene zoomed out and looked like it was being re-wound, like movies that you rewind.    The needle became a big black snake, then the snake became a large dragon or serpent with legs and wings. It stood up on its back legs and flapped its wings, it had horns and and a forked red tongue. It was aggressive and angry. (Representing the dragon/serpent of Revelations 12 who tries to destroy the Man-child and Woman and failing at that goes to make war on the rest of her seed.)   Then I started praying in the Spirit and I saw a white sword come and attack this serpent or dragon from behind me. (This represents the Word which we've heard from the beginning. Isa. 30:21 and thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it; when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.) It was a shiny metal and it pierced the dragon or serpent where its heart should have been but there was no heart, just a black hole.    Then I remembered the Word of the Lord concerning the serpent in Gen 3:15 and I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed (Jesus): he shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.   I thought, "Why pierce the place where the heart is supposed to be?" And the thought came to me, "Maybe to show me what complete darkness looks like?"    The vision ended and I fell asleep. When I awoke, I thought "Why wasn't the head crushed?” (Rev 12:9  And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him. The Dragon, the old serpents, head, Satan, was bruised by the seed of the Woman, Jesus, when He bound the strong man and told His seed to plunder him. The heel of Jesus is the end time body of Jesus who the serpent/Dragon will bruise by putting to death their flesh. Man-child, Woman and the Dragon  Rev. 12:1-12  And a great sign was seen in heaven: a woman arrayed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars; 2 and she was with child; and she crieth out, travailing in birth, and in pain to be delivered. 3 And there was seen another sign in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his heads seven diadems. 4 And his tail draweth the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon standeth before the woman that is about to be delivered, that when she is delivered he may devour her child. 5 And she was delivered of a son, a man child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and unto his throne.  The Man-child Reformers are Coming to Help: I had a vision early this Good Friday morning, 4-15-22. I saw two beautiful birds, one a grown up and another a baby. They were dressed in the same way with a blue (representing heavenly) coat and white (representing sanctified) breast.  The Baby was nesseled underneath the right wing of his mother. Then I saw the baby take flight and very shortly landed by another bird dressed the same way.  It then nesseled beneath the right wing of that bird.    (I saw no egg, the baby had already been born and was able to fly. I knew immediately that this baby was the Man-child leaving its mothers care and caught up to the throne authority of the Father and under the shadow of His wings. Today is Passover, the crucifixion of the Lamb, Jesus, in the Man-child Body. On the third day, the 17th, was resurrection day or catching up to the throne day. 17 is the number of preservation through an evil time when the crucifiers do their work. 17 is the chosen number of “Q” also.    Possibly a parallel is being shown between the Man-child body and Trump. Daniel was promoted over the Kingdom as Cyrus Conquered Babylon on the same night.  Operation Disclosure: Thurs. 14 April Charlie Ward: GESARA/NESARA is happening this weekend. [It was working on the 1st but they said they would announce it to the public around Easter. BTW, Easter is the pagan name for the goddess Ishtar used in the KJV in Acts 12:4, but it is translated from the Greek Pascha, [Hebrew Pesach] meaning passover. Ishtar was the pagan goddess that fell down out of heaven into the Euprates river in an egg.)   Considering my revelation of the Father and Mother of the Man-child I then I read to them Operation Disclosure's revelation of this day. “An hour before Sunrise Fri. morning 15 April the Planets Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn will be lined up in the Southeast Sky. (So we have the heavenly bodies of the Jupiter the King Planet, representing the Father, Venus, representing the mother planet, and then Mars, representing the war planet, and Saturn, representing the Devil planet. After the Father and Mother bring forth the Man-child and his throne authority war begins in the heavens and the devil as the dragon of Babylon is being cast down.)   Then I read the first verse text sent in for this morning:   Deb  (Mat.21:5) Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, Meek, and riding upon an ass, And upon a colt the foal of an ass...(9) And the multitudes that went before him, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest. (Hosanna means, “Oh Save, Heal, Deliver, oh Lord.) Back to our Rev. 12 text: 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that there they may nourish her a thousand two hundred and threescore days. The War in Heaven 7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels going forth to war with the dragon; and the dragon warred and his angels; 8 And they prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him. 10 And I heard a great voice in heaven, saying, Now is come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accuseth them before our God day and night. 11 And they (The Saints) overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony; and they loved not their life even unto death. 12 Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe for the earth and for the sea: because the devil is gone down unto you, having great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time. (Not only are the Saints given authority to cast down Satan and his demons from the second heaven to earth but when they return with the Lord they have a hand in casting him below the earth.) The Dragon Persecutes the Woman 13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast down to the earth, he persecuted the woman that brought forth the man child. 14 And there were given to the woman the two wings of the great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness unto her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. 15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth after the woman water as a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream. (As we will see, this could be representative of the “Watch the Water” Documentary where the venom of the serpent is found in the vaccines and is being distributed through the water supply in order to change the DNA. This could represent the seed of the serpent which would certainly be carrying the Woman away from the seed of Adam and Christ.) 16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth. 17 And the dragon waxed wroth with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed, that keep the commandments of God, and hold the testimony of Jesus: The Seed of The Serpent Covid Snake Venom Documentation: Interview Transcript of Dr. Ardis and Stew Peters By: holistic health online - 4/14/22  “Watch The Water” Documentary FULL   Dr. Brian Ardis: It's an honor to be here. I just want to say thank you, everyone, who's put any faith and trust in me to be able to convey truth… I have to get this off my chest. My spirit is screaming to say something and bring it to the forefront to protect as many innocent lives as possible. That's all I've been trying to do since May of 2020.   As you know, I read Anthony Fauci's memo on Remdesivir and when I actually clicked the links to the studies that he was quoting, saying that Remdesivir was safe and effective, I knew right away that he was lying. I knew right away that this drug was going to be used to mass murder a whole bunch of innocent people in America that did not need to die. Then he was going to sell the world on the idea in the media that they were dying of a virus, when in fact I knew they were being poisoned to death with this drug. I knew 30% of all people were going to experience multiple organ failure, kidney failure, septic shock and hypertension. That's what the study said.   Now, we're a year and a half after that, and it's exactly the numbers that I said based on those studies. I'm pretty much called "the Remdesivir guy" everywhere I go, which is odd for a retired chiropractor to be referenced as a pharmaceutical guy. But it is true Remdesivir is a very toxic, deadly drug. There are a lot of medical doctors and professionals who will mention that, and it's proven to be ineffective. It is not just ineffective; it is very toxic and deadly. It is known and proven to actually injure specific organs in your body.   It targets specific organs. This is a part of why I think my spirit is so moved to make sure this gets out. On January 21st of this year 2022 – so just two months ago – the FDA decided to authorize Remdesivir as the only drug to be authorized to be used in all newborns in this country. I can't even fathom the men or women in charge would actually do that. Since January 21st of 2022, it's the only drug to be used, only one allowed in hospitals for this entire pandemic. Now they're moving it into hospital care for children as young as newborns, 7 lbs. through the 18 year pediatric age range. It's the only authorized drug. There is nothing else that they're allowing for COVID 19 treatment. And I find that incredibly evil.   And then they've also now canceled monoclonal antibody uses throughout the United States and all US territories for COVID 19 early treatment. And they're moving remdesivir to the infusion centers where they were using monoclonal antibodies as the only IV infusion drug allowed. I have been moved with one singular purpose since May of 2020. When I read Anthony Fauci's memo about Remdesivir, I felt this spark inside of me that I now had to go voice to the world, a warning to try to protect as many innocent lives as possible from being killed. So let's talk about what happened.   It all started with a text. There's a medical doctor that I admire and love because he is nonstop from the beginning of COVID and has had the ability to project information and say to people around the world, you do not have to fear COVID. We have an answer. This guy has been on many stages with me. He still practices right now medicine and is an ER doc and he sent me a text. It actually was dated December 1st and I did not see it until like December 18th. I don't know how I didn't see it, but the text read, "Hey Dr. Ardis, if you got bit by a rattlesnake, would you go to a hospital and get anti venom?"   I realized he must have seen an interview I did on Infowars. So Kate Dailey had done an interview with me and wanted to go over my thoughts of monoclonal antibodies. Well, I had been given some research studies that actually bothered me. I didn't like the idea based on the data in these research studies. I didn't think monoclonal antibodies were safe. Long term, not short term, but long term. Now, I read the actual text message, got in the shower, and while I was in the shower, I was sitting there thinking, why would he send me that text? It has nothing to do with COVID. So I'm going through this and I'm thinking about the text and all my brain keeps going to is why is he mentioning anti venom.   Is there something about antivenom? So I went and got on the Internet and I wanted to know what is Antivenom. Only to find out that most antivenoms are monoclonal antibodies or polyclonal antibodies. And then I got it. Then I knew why he sent it to me. He wanted me to immediately see a question that he knew I would say, of course I'm going to go to the hospital and get anti venom. So in his mind, I think he knew this was a way or God inspired him to send me this message. Then go figure out why it is you would say yes. This is where it all started.   I will repeat what Steve Kirsch said to an audience with me last month. He said, "If the CDC says something to do, you do the opposite. If the NIH says to do something, or the FDA, do the opposite." I'm sitting there realizing that anti venom is monoclonal antibodies, and then I immediately revert back to, in my own head, that I'm not trusting anything the CDC and or FDA says. Is our federal health agencies recommending monoclonal antibodies for COVID 19? No, they're not. They've been badmouthing monoclonal antibodies this whole time.   They stripped them out of Florida when De Santis wanted to use them. And then January 21st of this year, they totally stripped out monoclonal antibodies. They do not want you touching monoclonal antibodies. They also didn't want you, from the beginning, to touch hydroxychloroquine. They also don't want you touching ivermectin. They also don't want you touching N acetyl cysteine (NAC) so that the things they tell you to avoid we know they're telling you to avoid because they work. So, I realized that the federal health agencies were actually not supporting monoclonal antibodies, and we believe that this is because they intentionally don't want people to recover.   ...I cannot believe the amount of evil behind this pandemic with what I've realized since then. I realized, all of a sudden, that monoclonal antibodies are anti venom. The federal government doesn't want us using anti venom. Why are they bashing anti venom and why are we finding that anti venom works against COVID? Is it not a virus? Is it instead a venom? This is what I want to know. Is COVID a venom? Is this why they don't want you using monoclonal antibodies.   Let me ask you a question. Do you believe the mass media is controlled? Of course, you actually do believe that. So you believe that whatever's being pumped out in the media is being orchestrated and controlled, across all of it.   All right. So in my head, I was like, okay, how do they keep people on that story? So there's this mass media group who are telling a huge story. They're all telling the same story around the world. Whenever anybody says anything against that narrative, what do they use now to combat that in the mainstream media?   Stew Peters: Disinformation?   Dr Brian Ardis: Yeah, they call them fact checkers. Fact checking is the opposite of fact checking. The arbiters of lies are the fact checkers.   By definition, fact checkers are there to divert you from truth and take you back to a narrative that is being sold worldwide, right? If it's true that COVID could actually be snake venom, (And how I came to that conclusion was they don't support the use of anti venom called monoclonal antibodies because they work.) The easiest way to figure that out is, has that ever been fact checked? I wanted to know was there ever any mention that the source could have been a snake? And oh, my God, I couldn't believe it. Over and over and over in the media in January and February of 2020 there are non-stop publications that the original source could either be from bats, snakes or pangolins. And every time the snake is mentioned, fact checkers – One, two, three, four, five, six, constantly fact check it and spin it back to the bats. There's no fact checking about bats. They keep you looking at bats.   In the beginning, in January of 2020, the scientists inside of China said this can't be from bats. These bats hibernate. And it's the winter. When they did genetic sequences from the antibodies in the people who were sick in Wuhan, they found that their genetic sequence was not most like bats. They were most like two snakes. Proteins from the Chinese Krait and the King Cobra. Then I find in April of 2020 there was a research study published in France where they're finding that the receptors in the brain called nicotinic acetyl-choline-sterase receptors are actually bound most tightly to snake venom of the krait and cobra is what they're finding, and that the spike protein from SARS-CoV-2 is most identical to Chinese krait and king cobra venom.   Then I find out that there's an actual doctor, Bing Liu, who works at the University of Pittsburgh in May of 2020. He works in a computational lab dealing with genetic sequencing and he's been researching for five months; the sequencing of spike proteins, trying to solve the mystery of SARS-CoV-2 victims. He says he's got a "big thing", too; A big press release. They're going to actually announce all their findings.    HEADLINE: Set back in the quest to understand coronavirus after a researcher is shot and killed. 37 year old Bing Liu was on the verge of making significant findings on COVID 19.   And that's when I freaked out. Also, all of the clips in the media when they interviewed his boss, who is still at the University of Pittsburgh, he said that they were going to publish the work they found through Bing Liu's work in their department. That's never been published. I'd like to know why a year and a half later, it's never been published. Where is it?   And then, all of a sudden, the realization came to me that this is the "great lie." When I say that they have lied to you about everything in relationship to COVID, they've even lied about the viral part of COVID. Now you have to understand here, my entire stance for the last year and a half has been to educate, warn people about hospital protocols because of a drug called Remdesivir. So in this realization that this could all be related to venom, something bothered me in the January 21st issue that came out from the FDA about Remdesivir in this 42 page document. It actually says there's only one drug that cannot be co administered with Remdesivir at the same time because it negates the antiviral properties of Remdesivir. And that drug is hydroxychloroquine.   In January 2020, there's this incredible study that's published where over a ten year period a company has been funding a research study gene-mapping all the genes of the venoms and proteins and peptides inside of King Cobra venom. And in January 2020, they published their findings. Oh, ask me if I was shocked when I saw that there were 19 toxic venom proteins that they isolated that specifically target organs in your body.   So I go to the funding part of this study. And I want to know who funded this and how many companies. It says that the majority of the company and studie's funding came from a company called Genentech. Genentech is a subsidiary of a company called Roche. I don't know anything about these companies. I never heard of them. The employees of Genentech, who were the authors of the study, said they have a conflict of interest because they actually hold shares and stocks in Roche. Genentech, I've never heard of Genentech. Is there a correlation between Genentech and Gilead? This is not a joke. I typed it on Internet. Is there a connection to Genentech and Gilead? Oh, my God. Gilead had bought two facilities that deal with biological studies from Genentech in 2011 and then brought 55 of their executives into Gilead in 2011 just when that King Cobra study started. Gilead is the manufacturer of Remdesivir.   Guess what's been known since 2005. Guess what blocks the nicotine receptors in the brain stem from being injured by cobra venom and viper venom. Guess what drug does that? Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine.   Remdesivir, packaged and stored as it is delivered to hospitals, comes in a little glass vial. It's called Lyophilized powder. It actually has a white yellowish tint. Guess what color snake venom has when it's stored; then to be diluted in sodium chloride or distilled water to be administered in an IV. Also, If people are buying King Cobra Venom Lyophilized (powdered form), they mix it in the same preparation as listed on the fact sheet for Remdesivir to actually take cobra venom or any other viper venom and inject it into horses to make monoclonal antibodies.   When you read the emergency use authorization for Remdesivir, it states this from January 21st, that every practitioner who administers this to a COVID patient, pediatric or not, you have to evaluate for what's called prothrombin time. Prothrombin time means if it increases the trauma time, it means it's taking your blood's ability to coagulate and making it longer so it thins your blood. You can't clot, right? You will internally bleed to death with Remdesivir. It is stated on the emergency use authorization. Every patient has to have their prothrombin time checked before you give them Remdesivir and during treatment.    Do you know what King Cobra venom does to the blood? It makes it so that I can't clot. You know, one of the evidences is it's prothrombin time. And if you look at the CDC website and the NIH website on the adverse events from Remdesivir, it actually says it increases prothrombin time, which is exactly what King Cobra venom does to the human body. And Remdesivir is the lyophilized peptide proteins of King Cobra venom.   The University of Arizona published a paper last summer where they actually evaluated the blood samples and tissues of hundreds of people who died, from two different hospitals after being treated for COVID, which means they got Remdesivir. Why do some people who are seemingly perfectly healthy die from COVID and others don't? It's a question baffling experts during this pandemic.   NEWS REPORT: A new research from the University of Arizona suggests we're closer to getting an answer. It seems to boil down to an enzyme that's also found in rattlesnake venom. What does this rattlesnake have to do with COVID 19 deaths?   We turned much of my research in my lab towards COVID a year and a half ago. Chilton says he got blood samples from more than 100 patients in a New York ICU. They either had no COVID, or  a mild, moderate or severe case of the virus. He did some fancy  artificial intelligence in his lab and discovered two distinct patterns in the people who were dying from COVID.   Dr. Brian Ardis: These patterns, number one, told us that the vital organs were in trouble, but the other looked as if they were being attacked by some enzyme.   He says he then found the highest concentration of this enzyme that has ever been found in humans. These levels, attacking internal organs means multiple organ failure and death.   So where do the rattlesnakes come into play? This enzyme is a humanized version, part of the same family as the active ingredient in snake venom. In simple terms, this enzyme related to rattlesnake venom that's been found in humans is likely causing tremendous damage, leading to COVID 19 deaths.   And then they take you through all of the elevated enzymes in the blood samples of these people that are naturally found in rattlesnake venom and viper venom that are in levels they've never seen before. Do you wonder how they got there? 5 to 10 days of Remdesivir. They've known since 2005 if you inject a mouse with cobra venom, like they're doing with Remdesivir, injecting into your veins, it actually causes a cytokine storm in the lungs of all animals. I am convinced that COVID 19 is not a respiratory virus of any kind. It is actually venom poisoning. And they're using, I believe, synthesized peptides and proteins from venoms of snakes, and they're administering them and targeting them to certain people.   Now, the amazing thing about these 19 toxins found in cobra venom, they're specifically sequenced to target specific organs, like the pancreas in a diabetic, like the heart in a heart disease patient, like the liver in a hepatitis patient.   So if I die because I'm a cancer patient, or if I die from some sort of liver related function because I've had liver problems, if I die, then it'll be undetectable. It'll be untraceable. They're going to chalk it up, of course, to whatever underlying disease the person was suffering from.   This is the most original of all bioweapons ever. Snake venom. I mean, we know how poisonous snakes are. This is the most obvious bioweapon ever. When I say this is the most evil thing I've ever encountered in my entire life. Could you ever have imagined the one greatest symbol of evil in all of Christendom. What is the symbol of evil in Christianity? The serpent. The serpent! Can you think of anything more evil than envenomating the entire world with snake venom and then injecting snake venom into your veins. And then using mRNA technology that they've been isolating from snake venom for years that they know are unusually stable, more stable than any other mRNA they've isolated from other natural organisms for decades.   In 2015, they took mRNA from cobra venom, krait venom, and they actually wrapped the mRNA in nanoparticle hydrogel. How often have you heard about that with these new mRNA vaccines? And they made it even more stable. Then they actually added what's called dynabeads to those nanoparticles surrounding the mRNA of snake venom. And it made it even more stable and made it last longer. It made it easier to get inside of your cells. Do you know what dynabeads are? Magnetic metal nanoparticles.   CLIP FROM BLACKLIST: The movie actor says, "Your prayers have been answered, Donald. Apparently I'm dying. I've been poisoned by someone within my organization. Someone with access to an offshore account that was used to fund recent attacks against me. 11 people had access to that account. Last evening, I called those 11 to a dinner to confront them. What happened next? I only remember pieces. The restaurant. What it looked like. Where it was. I remember holding a glass of wine, not drinking it. Although I'm sure I must have. I need you to find the pharmaco-toxicologist who I believe crafted the deadly cocktail and get the antidote from him.   He's known as The Apothecary, a druggist whose potions hijack the immune system, causing any number of allergic reactions. Each one impossible to identify unless you know what you're looking for. An exotic venom might replicate a drug overdose. A personally tailored allergic reaction might trigger cardiovascular collapse.   The apothecary can create embolisms, aneurysms, inhibit respiration, induce paralysis. We're looking for cortico-steroids. Broncho-dilator. Go, go, go.   I've lived my entire adult life surrounded by the corona of death. Sometimes I even longed for it. But lately I find I'm not willing to go gentle into that good night.   There's good news. The lab did find one distinct element in the molecular structure of the drops taken from Robert Ball's apartment. A peptide unique to the venom of the red-headed Krait."   Dr. Brian Ardis: When I saw this movie clip, I knew. I knew I was right. I knew I was supposed to see that because it was confirmation to me that other people knew this was planned all along, which we've known this is a plan. [In the movie] the FBI figures out that it's actually peptides found in krait venom that poisoned Reddington. In the show, you learn that he was poisoned by drinking. It was put in his drink. And then I realized something. I realized how they've been spreading this.   I had actually told my wife six months prior to this that it's very odd when you go on the CDC website that they have this wastewater surveillance tab on the COVID data tracker site. And they have 400 water testing sites in 37 cities in this country. What no one knows is the data from the CDC between January of 2020 and September of 2020 in relationship to their water testing of these 37 cities. They only let people know they were doing it in September of 2020 and now releasing that data. They now just announced two weeks ago, Walensky did, of the CDC, that they're now upping their water testing, they say, and have been reporting to media outlets that how it works is they are PCR testing our wastewater because we, as we get COVID 19, are pooping it in the water and we're going to test our wastewater. And we can tell the city when there's high amounts of SARS-CoV-2 in the water, they can actually tell that same community four or five days later is going to be an outbreak of COVID 19 in that city.   Stew Peters: Wait a minute. That's backwards.   Dr. Brian Ardis: That is completely backwards. If a community has had SARS-CoV-2 go through their body, they already had their symptoms when they eliminated the virus, supposedly the virus is out of their body and it ends up in your wastewater, you no longer have symptoms. How could you know and then be able to confirm in the future 4 to 5 days from now when we find it in your wastewater supply from your city. When we see it being shed in your water 4 to 5 days later, we can actually tell you there's going to be an outbreak in your city? It's not because there's an outbreak in the city, just like in the show Black List. I had to break this down for every aspect of COVID.   One thing that's been very unique to COVID is this sense of loss of taste and smell that lasts for months, even years. Holy cow. I had no idea they already knew this happened to people when you drink it. For the people who are the natural healers or the individuals who've got bitten when they actually suck the venom of cobra into their mouth and then spit it out, they have this loss of taste and smell that can last 12 months to a year and a half. It's just from having been exposed in the mouth, which is exactly what's happening when it's being put into our water.   Now, the thing about the water is this: they are using the water systems because they can target specific demographics. They are absolutely confident that the peptides they have chosen for COVID, circulated throughout the Earth and throughout the populace, and the vaccines and the mRNA in the vaccines specifically target organs like your spleen and your pancreas. For diabetics, that's a concern. Brain tissue, liver tissue, lung tissue and heart tissue. So if you already have a disease process of inflammation of any of those organs, you are the ones that they are targeting.   Stew Peters: So are the people that work at my water treatment facility are aware of this? Are they in on it.   Dr. Brian Ardis: No, no, the CDC is in on it. And the CDC is working with contracting companies to make sure they do it.   There are nicotine receptors in your brainstem that control your diaphragm. Your diaphragm has to contract to be able to allow oxygen to get into your lungs. They are using krait venom and cobra venom and calling it COVID 19. You're drinking it. It's getting it into your brainstem and it's paralyzing your diaphragm's ability to breathe. I cannot say this enough.   In the very beginning of COVID, it was being reported around the world that the least demographic represented in hospitals being hospitalized for COVID 19 were smokers. Around the world, it was less than 5% of everybody in hospitals were actually smokers. And they found that odd, only because this was a respiratory virus. Wouldn't it be that the people who are shoving tobacco and nicotine in their lungs would be more apt to be traumatized by a novel respiratory virus? But that's not what they saw.   What was amazing is when this started getting reported in the first six months of COVID in 2020 around the world, guess what our federal government did? Anthony Fauci, the NIH, CDC and the FDA all came out and started pumping in the media that there's no better time than right now to quit smoking. And they actually lied to you and they lied to the entire world and said smokers are being hospitalized at rates higher than any other demographic. Well, the truth is, these nicotine receptors that are affected by cobra venom and krait venom that control your ability to breathe, was causing your oxygen levels to fall. On a pulse oximeter it looks like you have pneumonia. But you didn't. You were being paralyzed. Actually, you couldn't breathe and your heart rhythm was actually being dropped by the same receptors.   Nicotine binds to those receptors and then the venom can't bind, so it can't paralyze your diaphragm. They knew and we're theorizing in France in April of 2020 when they figured out that it was the nicotine receptors that control the diaphragm's ability to breathe was what the spike protein was targeting, because it most looked like the neurotoxin of krait and cobra venom. They started theorizing that studies needed to be done, that we start giving people nicotine to protect them from getting COVID.   It absolutely is known that nicotine is protective against COVID 19 because it stops these venoms from damaging and connecting to these nicotine receptors in your brain that control your diaphragms ability to breathe. But once you go into a hospital because you can't breathe, if you're not a smoker and you don't do the nicotine they put you on Remdesivir. Remdesivir is venom from a cobra. It's attaching itself to the nicotine receptors in your brain. You then can't breathe and then at the same time, it destroys the inside of your of your lungs through what's called a cytokine storm. That is what cobra venom does.   And then they say they've got to put you on a ventilator. They're putting you on ventilators because then they can actually murder you by euthanizing you with drugs that act similarly to the venom. They have to sedate you because when they go to shove a tube down your trachea to get into your lungs, you'll pull it out. You'll pull it out, or you'll fight them as they're trying to shove it in there. So they have to sedate you. So they use morphine, fentanyl,  Lorazepam or midazolam. These drugs act on the same centers of your brain that control the diaphragm's breathing. These drugs are euthanizing drugs, and they actually will put you on these protocols at the same time they have you on Remdesivir. The entire attempt is to slow down your breathing and your diaphragm and you will die. They've got the cocktail down pat.   The average person dies on day nine of COVID 19, hospitalized treatment. They only authorize, per the NIH, two five day treatments of Remdesivir. It's amazing that the ninth day is the day that most people die in February of 2020. The Wall Street Journal was allowed to produce an article, and they particularly speak to the word “virus” in coronavirus pandemic. And in this article it actually states that the Latin definition for virus, originally and historically, virus means venom.   So I started to wonder, well, what about the name Corona? Does it have a Latin definition or a definition at all? So I actually looked up what's the definition on Dictionary.com and it brings up 13 definitions. Corona religiously, ecclesiastically means gold ribbon at the base of a miter. I didn't know what a miter was, so I copied it and pasted it and then hit images. So this actually could read the pope's venom pandemic. It also can read Crown. Corona means crown also in Latin terms. Visually, we see kings represented with a crown symbol. So put that together for me. King Cobra venom. It actually could read King Cobra Venom pandemic. I've said this for about a year now that I actually believe this is more of a religious war on the entire world. I've been adamant about that. Actually, the message of Christ forever was He's the master healer and faith precedes all miracles, not vaccines.   So why are we actually putting more faith in drugs? And why is a man of the cloth [the Pope] supposedly putting more faith in science and a drug than he is in telling people to pray to God? God's greatest creation was you, and you are made up of a DNA strand of genetics that are unique to you. If I was going to do something incredibly evil, how ironic would it be that the Catholic Church or whoever would use the one symbol of an animal that represents evil in all religion, which is either the snake or the dragon, which is actually just a snake with legs. You take that snake or that serpent and you figure out how to isolate genes from that serpent. And get those genes of that serpent to insert itself into your God given created DNA. I think this was the plan all along; to get the serpents, the evil ones, DNA into your God created DNA and they figured out how to do it with this mRNA technology, they are using mRNA, which is mRNA extracted from, I believe, the king cobra venom.   And I think they want to get that venom inside of you and make you a hybrid of Satan. No longer just belonging to God or a creation of God's. When I say that the mRNA inside of the Pfizer and Moderna shots is actually derived from snake venom. Yeah, it just sounds crazy, right? But I want you to read from July 6th, last year, 2021, the co-founder of Moderna read the title, show it to the camera.   Moderna is using mRNA technology to treat venomous snake bites. It goes on to say that he's going to help create and co-found a company based in San Francisco that actually is going to solely work on creating anti venom drugs for snakebites.   Guess who funds this thing? The Department of Defense, the Welcome Trust Fund and the United Nations. Incredible. All right. So this is great.   Let's just wrap our heads around that for a second. How many snake bite victims are there? It's like 100,000 people. 100,000 people will die from snake bites. But this is enough for the Department of Defense and for the United Nations to get on board and to fund such a venture?   Dr. Hoffe out of Canada after evaluating his vaccinated patients, was able to determine those who had received them had elevated  d-dimers, and he checked that because they all complained of extreme fatigue, like long hauler's COVID symptoms. And he was enlightened to do this d-dimer test and then found every single one of them had elevated d-dimer. Now I want you to read on Medscape: What is it that medical doctors are trained to look for when they see elevated d-dimers? So read the title and I want you to read the fifth bullet point.   How are elevated d-dimer levels interpreted? Snake venom poisoning. So even medical doctors are trained to look for elevated d- dimers and to know that this is a possible snake venom poisoning. And notice they didn't use the word snake bite victim or snake venom poisoning. And I was like, Oh, my God, it's in the mRNA shots for sure. This is why you're seeing this. They even talk about it on here that d-dimer is a reflection of fibrinogen and its ability to control coagulation, and that it's usually at normal low levels inside of people who are fine. But then these d-dimers get extremely elevated after snake venom poisoning.   The kidney failure caused by Remdesivir is the number one organ targeted by King Cobra venom. It's the number one. There isn't anything in relationship to symptom-a-tology of COVID 19 injuries post COVID 19 vaccines treatment with Remdesivir that cannot be correlated back in research studies to venom from cobras, kraits and other vipers.   So when somebody gets bit by a snake, particularly a king cobra or a krait, what is the long term prognosis for these people? If you have been injected you've had gene sequences put into you or peptides put into you from a venom. And that actually continues, particularly one bite after another. Those disease processes become even more exaggerated. This is why they want to continue doing the booster shot program…   FOLLOW-UP: Dr. Ardis Answers the Top Questions About “Venom Theory”:  https://www.brighteon.com/14d31e23-e80f-4247-a882-c148ac4ea53f   Transcript of the first 15 minutes:   Dr. Ardis: “I've worried that the information was going to be so monstrous that many people would deflect immediately and not trust the information or not want to consider even looking at it.   I was hoping that when I brought this to Mike Adams that any gaps in the story would be filled in by other experts in their fields.   I'm not an expert in all fields. I'm not an expert in water supplies. So I just want to clear up this water supply thing. (With the help of Mike Adams.)   The one thing that's been the biggest negative has been people saying, “There's no way this is in the water. How can you even say they're poisoning the water with snake venom?” etc.   I want people to understand something; water has not been my story. This is not even the biggest part of the story. I've just wanted to save people's lives from the hospital protocols.   As I have said from the very beginning; for the last 2 years, “Whatever the bioweapon is, even when I thought it was just a  virus engineered in a lab, that it's not very good or effective because less than 1% of the entire world population has died from it. I never thought the whole “water source thing” was dangerous or horrific and everyone should focus on the water. (In fact Stew Peters was the one who came up with the title for our “Watch the Water" interview and documentary.)   Mike Adams: About the 'water thing'; I find it a little bit surprising that some people were giving you push-back on the water issue. It's as if they've forgotten the decades of water Fluoridation. The water supply has been meticulously and systematically poisoned with toxic fluoride , which is a near toxic chemical that is dripped into the water supply. It usually comes in the form of a powder (just like Remdesivir) and then it's reconstituted into a solution.   Every municipal water treatment center has a machine that drips quote “the proper dose” of the poison into the water supply folks! So how can people say they're not poisoning us in the water? And secondly, What about Flint Michigan and all the lead poisoning that occurred in that event? What about the poisoning of Du Ponte chemicals in the water supply? I mean, come on people! To say that you can't be poisoned in the water supply is just ignorant!…   Dr. Ardis: When people keep asking me, “What proof do you have that it's in the water?” How about if you just look at what the CDC's been doing; What they've actually been testing this whole time looking for the bioweapon called SARS COV 2.     They have 400 water testing sites in different cities all around the country. They are doing PCR testing on your water looking for the weapon. They are looking for this so called “virus” in your water. (Some argue but that's the waste water they are testing.) But they are gonna filter that water and it's going to become your drinking water and I can't see any evidence yet that the CDC has proven that they're not only testing the water for SARS COV 2 (this really deadly pathogen according to them) and then at the same time filtering it out of your water before returning it back to you. I've never seen that evidence or read anything about that.   All I've seen is, “We are testing all these sites; looking for SARS COV 2 in the water and they've been using this sole method for predicting outbreaks in your city! They are only looking at the water! So if this is what they are using to predict outbreaks in your town then logically it must be being recirculated back into the water source (that's coming through our taps.)   So, I just want people to know, if the CDC is looking in your water for SARS COV 2, maybe we should find out if they are actually filtering it out of the water as they find it!   Mike Adams: So, what they are testing is waste water. But as you say the sewage water gets treated and turned back into drinking water. What you say is true that what is coming out of someones tap was coming out of someone's toilet up the river. So the question becomes, “Are these water districts who treat the water removing SARS COV 2? Do they remove potentially snake venom peptides (from pharmaceuticals or other sources). What are they removing or not removing and we don't have an answer to that question yet.   Dr. Ardis: I don't know either. But the enlightening fact is that governments around the world have been doing waste water surveillance testing for SARS COV 2 this whole time. So my question is, “Have they been poisoning the water right under our noses and we never knew it?”   People are saying, “How did Ardis come to this?” The truth is and I really want to convey this point; The story for me is NOT the water. My whole agenda for 2 years has been to save peoples lives from (these evil) hospital protocols. It just took a new direction when I got a text from Dr. Richard Bartlett that said, “If you got bit by a rattle snake would go get anti-venom?”   Ever since then the entire scope of Covid -19 and the reality of what it really is has completely transformed, regardless of the source of how they are distributing it!   There is enough evidence now to start looking to see. Is it true that the bioweapon itself is being distributed through gain of function or they've just been dumping synthetic peptides of venomous into the water, or aerosolizing them; however they are king distributed.   Is it true that the bioweapon is snake venom or animal venom peptides and if so go test the people. The University of Arizona said that individuals treated for Covid 19 whose tissue and blood samples were studied; that the amount of this enzyme called SPLA-2 that was present looked like snake venom had been coursing through their veins. This is the same enzyme found in rattle snake venom.   We need to start looking at, “Is it possible that these components found in venom are orchestrating this whole plan. Because when you start looking at the mRNA vaccine side effects; almost all of them can be tied to a specific snake venom component. You can also look at the SARS COV 2 side effects like loss of taste and smell. These are actually side effects of snake venom and not customarily  a side effect of viruses which has been very “mysterious.”   Mike Adams: So I'm glad that you mentioned multiple vectors of exposure because Dr. Lee Merrick believes that this has probably been distributed in cities as a contact poison to distribute it through skin penetrating nano particles which were part of the Eco Health Alliance's proposal to DARPA for release in China in the bat caves. You mentioned water as a vector and also an aerosolized   release as a possible vector.   I think what you are trying to convey to people is, “Hey, don't get stuck on the 'water'. There are multiple vectors. The point is maybe it's in the air, maybe it's on contact surfaces, maybe it's in the water, but these people are being deliberately exposed to these nano particles that you're saying were derived from the structure of venom peptides because those molecules are extremely toxic and are generating the side effects that we're seeing. Is that a fair summary of what you are saying?   Dr. Ardis: Yes. By the way, Dr. Lee Merrick texted me this morning and said, “Dr. Ardis, You're going to have to show me evidence about this water sourcing and snake venom.” And I texted her back and said, “Dr. Merrick, you're missing the point. I need everybody to go look at the weapon! I don't care where it is (or the mode of distribution.) Look Dr. Merrick, they are finding it in the water. Our government agencies are spending millions of dollars finding it in the water. It's obviously in the water also; whether through shedding in the feces of they are actively poisoning us, just as with fluoride.”   Just know the weapon is venom. Treat it like an envemomation  and you'll solve the riddle of the mystery of SARS COV 2 “infections” and the side effects of the vaccines, and the hospital protocols being used for Covid 19 “infections.” They all have something in common. They all find these snake venom- like properties in the side effects and in the enzymes in the bodies of Covid 19 patients.   Mike Adams: Yeah. That's what's fascinating. It was shocking how closely the symptoms match up. And also you've provided a tremendous amount of documentation. So there's been a lot of due diligence on your part. Scientific American absolutely did publish a story in 2020 that is mentioned in your presentation that talks about the SARS COV 2 has the most similarity  with snakes because of the code ons and the genetic similarity and CNN covered it as well as other scientific journals etc.   So when people say there's no research to back this up; I don't know what they're watching or what they are not watching we put it all up on the screen for everybody.   Dr. Ardis: The thing that kind of solidified it all for me was when the British Medical Journal Global News published last year that, “Right now there are 2 health crisis going around at the same time around the world which were, “Snakes bites and Covid 19.” They didn't say, “Bat bites and Covid -19.” They have one research and development in common; only one opportunity to handle both crisis.   The code-on usage bias, as we showed from the studies in Jan. 2020 is a specific term that specifies the genetic origin. Well, this study found that the code-on usage bias for SARS COV 2 was most identical to the Chinese common Krait and the King Cobra. NOT bats. SNAKES.   Mike Adams: Well, you've brought a lot of research to the table and one of the reactions today from the Left wing media is, “Oh, this is crazy. Snake venom. Crazy conspiracy. Where do these people get this stuff?” Right? They are attacking you and Stew Peters. (who by the way has had his house SWATED by the FBI twice in the past week; Go figure.) But it's all in the research. It's all in the articles. But the funny thing is, by attacking you over this they are forcing people to think about snake venom for the first time.   Dr. Ardis: And the British Medical Journal is saying that the two main crisis around the world right now are snake bites and Covid -19. So maybe we should be looking at SNAKE VENOM! ...     Doctors Don't Even Know!

A pain treatment drug named Prialt (see Prialt.com) is actually synthesized by copying the poison of the Magical Cone Snail (conus magus). This poison produces hallucinations, confusion, altered states of consciousness and more. The insert sheet for the Prialt drug carries bizarre warnings such as, “Patients have become unresponsive or stuporous while receiving PRIALT.” Patients who are made unconscious by the drug may appear to be perfectly conscious, almost as if they are in a zombie state. The warning sheet explains, “During these episodes, patients sometimes appear to be conscious and breathing is not depressed. If reduced levels of consciousness occur, discontinue PRIALT until the event resolves…” We acknowledge that drugs like Prialt may have practical, beneficiary applications for people who are suffering chronic pain, yet who are unable to take highly addictive opioids for a variety of reasons. However, we take issue with the fact that drug companies and doctors seem to be hiding the origins of these medications from patients. Most doctors aren't even aware that toxins, poisons and venoms are used as the templates to synthesize extremely toxic peptides that are frequently used in prescription medications, including drugs for heart attacks, diabetes, high blood pressure and more. Reptile venoms can be weaponized and turned into large-scale chemical weapon systems Even worse, these reptile venoms can be weaponized and mass produced, then used in a large-scale chemical attack on the population by introducing these toxins into food, water, air or contact surfaces. Just as fentanyl can be weaponized through aerosolization and drone delivery, these reptile venom peptides can also be weaponized and used to mass murder large numbers of people. Some observers believe this has already happened, and that the mRNA “vaccines” currently being injected into people may deposit instructions for venom peptide synthesis into the cells of the body. If true, this would turn your body into a reptilian venom factory from the inside. It might also explain why so many side effects of covid vaccines seem to align so closely with the known effects of envenomation (being bitten by a snake, a viper, a scorpion, etc). Dr. Bryan Ardis covers this in detail in part 3 of my recent interview with him. Many people say this third part is by far the most informative, and it's all backed by meticulous scientific research: Brighteon.com/0d74ac38-dcf9-44e6-99f6-96c6a59abcf9 As ToxinTech.com explains on their website, touting the pharmaceutical potential for the venom peptides in their library: The biological function of animal venoms is to immobilize and kill prey or predator in seconds to minutes… venom toxins target… neuromuscular, cardiovascular, hemostatic and other life functions. Toxins bind to targets with high affinity and are chemically stable. For the record, we do not ascribe nefarious intent on the part of ToxinTech. However, we recognize that ToxinTech's venom library may be exploited and misused by bad actors to create weapons of mass destruction, all based on venom peptides which are engineered to kill. Interestingly, the ToxinTech home page feature image asks a rather blunt question that could be easily misconstrued: Designed Toxins… Have a Target? In the context of biosciences, this means a molecular target such as a specific enzymatic pathway or channel such as calcium channels or sodium channels. But to the mind of a bad actor with nefarious intent, they might wish to target humanity, for example, with a venom-based depopulation weapon. 13 irrefutable facts about snake venom, Big Pharma and bioweapons We've spent much of this week researching the venom peptide industry, and what we've found is rather astonishing. In fact, I think it's one of the biggest stories in the history of modern pharmaceutical medicine. Here's what we know so far: Fact #1 – Big Pharma routinely uses venom and venom peptides for drug discovery. Around 150,000 animal species are known to produce toxins, and scientists estimate that 20 million toxins exist (only a small fraction have been studied). Fact #2 – Massive venom libraries already exist (20,000+ venom peptides) and are marketed to the pharma industry for drug discovery. Two such companies are Venomtech (UK) and ToxinTech (USA). Fact #3 – One venom library company celebrates how its venoms for Big Pharma are able to “immobilize and kill prey .. in seconds or minutes.” They explain that venoms are “Perfected by millions of years of evolution” in order to target “neuromuscular, cardiovascular, hemostatic and other life functions.” (ToxinTech.com home page, sourced April 14, 2022) This means that venom library licensing companies recognize the toxicity of the compounds they are offering to drug companies. In fact, they state so in their own marketing materials. Fact #4 – Reptile venoms can be weaponized and made into biological weapons. Protein sequences are provided by the venom library companies, allowing gain-of-function research to engineer venom peptides into viral payloads or mRNA therapeutics. Because venoms are poisons, the knowledge of how to engineer and synthesize those poisons at the amino acid level is also knowledge of how to build biological or chemical weapons. Fact #5 – Dozens of pharmaceuticals derived entirely from animal venom already exist. Many are FDA approved. A full chart has been published by Natural News and is also shown below. Fact #6 – Pharma appears to be HIDING the venom origins of their products, making few or no disclosures on marketing websites about the actual origin of their drugs. You would have to read the insert sheets and understand latin names to know that their drugs come from animal venom. Fact #7 – Nearly zero doctors or patients know about the venom origins of venom-derived medications. Thus, patients are swallowing actual reptile venom molecules but being told by their doctors that it is “medication.” The FDA's approving of a venom as a medication does not magically transform it into something that is non-toxic. The toxicity is simply reframed as “therapeutic” by the FDA, which then hands the pharmaceutical company a market monopoly to sell a molecule that was actually pirated from nature. Fact #8 – Venom molecules and venom peptides are mass synthesized in pharmaceutical factories. This is a common practice. This is referred to by numerous scientific and bioscience resources, including the World Economic Forum. Fact #9 – Venoms and venom peptides are synthesized as “chemically stable” (ToxinTech.com) and are routinely delivered via liquid solutions without any preservatives. (They need no special preservatives to maintain their structure and function.) Nanocarriers are also available to further stabilize the venom peptides. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31223083/). Fact #10 – Venoms can be touted by pharmaceutical companies as “naturally occurring,” because they are. Yet this label can be misleading since people equate the word “natural” with “healthful” or “safe.” Fact #11 – Because venom peptides are stable in solution, they can be weaponized and mass produced, then distributed via air, water, food or contact surfaces. This means that it is entirely plausible that mass poisoning via venom peptides could be accomplished through the water supply, or the food supply, or dropped on cities via drones, etc. These are not outlandish ideas in the least. The US Dept of Homeland Security just recently conducted chemical weapons simulation tests in New York City, releasing “non-toxic gas” in city parks and subway stations in order to study this very thing. If it's a “crazy conspiracy theory,” then somebody needs to tell DHS, because they've been drilling for this exact scenario. Fact #12 – Some toxins are skin-penetrating and can be absorbed merely by TOUCHING. (Not a venom, but a toxin or poison.) This was all admitted in an Ecohealth Alliance proposal to DARPA, as covered in this story: Leaked DARPA document, DRASTIC analysis confirms attack on humanity using aerosolized, skin-penetrating nanoparticle spike proteins. Fact #13 – Venoms and venom peptides produced for pharma are so stable that they survive stomach acid, which means the venom peptides are stable in solution, including in rather acidic (reactive) solutions. This means they do not automatically break down in city water, either. If venom toxins were not highly stable molecules, they would not be very good venoms in the first place. As ToxinTech explains, “millions of years of evolution” has perfected the functionality of these molecules.

Qualcomm is the world's largest fabless semiconductor designer. The name Qualcomm is a mashup of  Quality and Communications and communications has been a hallmark of the company since its founding. They began in satellite communications and today most every smartphone has a Qualcomm chip. The ubiquity of communications in our devices and everyday lives has allowed them a $182 billion market cap as of the time of this writing.  Qualcomm began with far humbler beginnings. They emerged out of a company called Linkabit in 1985. Linkabit was started by Irwin Jacobs, Leonard Kleinrock, and Andrew Viterbi - all three former graduate students at MIT.  Viterbi moved to California to take a job with JPL in Pasadena, where he worked on satellites. He then went off to UCLA where he developed what we now call the Viterti algorithm, for encoding and decoding digital communications. Jacobs worked on a book called Principles of Communication Engineering after getting his doctorate at MIT. Jacobs then took a year of leave to work at JPL after he met Viterbi in the early 1960s and the two hit it off. By 1966, Jacobs was a professor at the University of California, San Diego. Kleinrock was at UCLA by then and the three realized they had too many consulting efforts between them, but if they consolidated the request they could pool their resources. Eventually Jacobs and Viterbi left and Kleinrock got busy working on the first ARPANET node when it was installed at UCLA. Jerry Heller, Andrew Cohen, Klein Gilhousen, and James Dunn eventually moved into the area to work at Linkabit and by the 1970s Jacobs was back to help design telecommunications for satellites. They'd been working to refine the theories from Claude Shannon's time at MIT and Bell Labs and were some of the top names in the industry on the work. And the space race needed a lot of this type of work. They did their work on Scientific Data Systems computers in an era before that company was acquired by Xerox. Much as Claude Shannon got started thinking of data loss as it pertains to information theory while trying to send telegraphs over barbed wire, they refined that work thinking about sending images from mars to earth.  Others from MIT worked on other space projects as a part of missions. Many of those early employees were Viterbi's PhD students and they were joined by Joseph Odenwalder, who took Viterbi's decoding work and combined it with a previous dissertation out of MIT when he joined Linkabit. That got used in the Voyager space probes and put Linkabit on the map. They were hiring some of the top talent in digital communications and were able to promote not only being able to work with some of the top minds in the industry but also the fact that they were in beautiful San Diego, which appealed to many in the Boston or MIT communities during harsh winters. As solid state electronics got cheaper and the number of transistors more densely packed into those wafers, they were able to exploit the ability to make hardware and software for military applications by packing digital signal processors that had previously taken a Sigma from SDS into smaller and smaller form factors, like the Linkabit Microprocessor, which got Viterbi's algorithm for encoding data into a breadboard and a chip.  The work continued with defense contractors and suppliers. They built modulation and demodulation for UHF signals for military communications. That evolved into a Command Post Modem/Processor they sold, or CPM/P for short. They made modems for the military in the 1970s, some of which remained in production until the 1990s. And as they turned their way into the 1980s, they had more than $10 million in revenue.  The UC San Diego program grew in those years, and the Linkabit founders had more and more local talent to choose from. Linkabit developed tools to facilitate encoded communications over commercial satellites as well. They partnered with companies like IBM and developed smaller business units they were able to sell off. They also developed a tool they called VideoCipher to encode video, which HBO and others used to do what we later called scrambling on satellite signals. As we rounded the corner into the 1990s, though, they turned their attention to cellular services with TDMA (Time-Division Multiple Access), an early alternative to CDMA. Along the way, Linkabit got acquired by a company called MACOM in 1980 for $25 million. The founders liked that the acquirer was a fellow PhD from MIT and Linkabit stayed separate but grew quickly with the products they were introducing. As with most acquisitions, the culture changed and by 1985 the founders were gone. The VideoCipher and other units were sold off, spun off, or people just left and started new companies. Information theory was decades old at this point, plenty of academic papers had been published, and everyone who understood the industry knew that digital telecommunications was about to explode; a perfect storm for defections. Qualcomm Over the course of the next few years over two dozen companies were born as the alumni left and by 2003, 76 companies were founded by Linkabit alumni, including four who went public. One of the companies that emerged included the Linkabit founders Irwin Jacobs and Andrew Viterbi, Begun in 1985, Qualcomm is also based in San Diego. The founders had put information theory into practice at Linkabit and seen that the managers who were great at finance just weren't inspiring to scientists.  Qualcomm began with consulting and research, but this time looked for products to take to market. They merged with a company called Omninet and the two released the OmniTRACS satellite communication system for trucking and logistical companies. They landed Schneider National and a few other large customers and grew to over 600 employees in those first five years. It remained a Qualcomm subsidiary until recently. Even with tens of millions in revenue, they operated at a loss while researching what they knew would be the next big thing.  Code-Division Multiple Acces, or CDMA, is a technology that allows for sending information over multiple channels so users can share not just a single frequency of the radio band, but multiple frequencies without a lot of interference. The original research began all the way back in the 1930s when Dmitry Ageyev in the Soviet Union researched the theory of code division of signals at Leningrad Electrotechnical Institute of Communications. That work and was furthered during World War II by German researchers like Karl Küpfmüller and Americans like Claude Shannon, who focused more on the information theory of communication channels.  People like Lee Yuk-wing then took the cybernetics work from pioneers like Norbert Weiner and helped connect those with others like Qualcomm's Jacobs, a student of Yuk-wing's when he was a professor at MIT. They were already working on CDMA jamming in the early 1950s at MIT's Lincoln Lab. Another Russian named Leonid Kupriyanovich put the concept of CMDA into practice in the later 1950s so the Soviets could track people using a service they called Altai. That made it perfect for  perfect for tracking trucks and within a few years was released in 1965 as a pre-cellular radiotelephone network that got bridged to standard phone lines. The Linkabit and then Qualcomm engineers had worked closely with satellite engineers at JPL then Hughes and other defense then commercial contractors. They'd come in contact with work and built their own intellectual property for decades. Bell was working on mobile, or cellular technologies. Ameritech Mobile Communications, or Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS) as they were known at the time, launched the first 1G network in 1983 and Vodaphone launched their first service in the UK in 1984. Qualcomm filed their first patent for CDMA the next year.  That patent is one of the most cited documents in all of technology. Qualcomm worked closely with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the US and with industry consortiums, such as the CTIA, or Cellular Telephone Industries Association. Meanwhile Ericsson promoted the TDMA standard as they claimed it was more standard; however, Qualcomm worked on additional patents and got to the point that they licensed their technology to early cell phone providers like Ameritech, who was one of the first to switch from the TDMA standard Ericsson promoted to CDMA. Other carriers switched to CDMA as well, which gave them data to prove their technology worked. The OmniTRACS service helped with revenue, but they needed more. So they filed for an initial public offering in 1991 and raised over $500 billion in funding between then and 1995 when they sold another round of shares. By then, they had done the work to get CDMA encoding on a chip and it was time to go to the mass market. They made double what they raised back in just the first two years, reaching over $800 million in revenue in 1996.  Qualcomm and Cell Phones One of the reasons Qualcomm was able to raise so much money in two substantial rounds of public funding is that the test demonstrations were going so well. They deployed CDMA in San Diego, New York, Honk Kong, Los Angeles, and within just a few years had over a dozen carriers running substantial tests. The CTIA supported CDMA as a standard in 1993 and by 1995 they went from tests to commercial networks.  The standard grew in adoption from there. South Korea standardized on CDMA between 1993 to 116. The CDMA standard was embraced by Primeco in 1995, who used the 1900 MHz PCS band. This was a joint venture between a number of vendors including two former regional AT&T spin-offs from before the breakup of AT&T and represented interests from Cox Communications, Sprint, and turned out to be a large undertaking. It was also the largest cellular launch with services going live in 19 cities and the first phones were from a joint venture between Qualcomm and Sony. Most of PrimeCo's assets were later merged with AirTouch Cellular and the Bell Atlantic Mobile to form what we now know as Verizon Wireless.  Along the way, there were a few barriers to mass proliferation of the Qualcomm CDMA standards. One is that they made phones. The Qualcomm Q cost them a lot to manufacture and it was a market with a lot of competition who had cheaper manufacturing ecosystems. So Qualcomm sold the manufacturing business to Kyocera, who continued to license Qualcomm chips. Now they could shift all of their focus on encoding bits of data to be carried over multiple radio channels to do their part in paving the way for 2G and 3G networks with the chips that went into most phones of the era.  Qualcomm couldn't have built out a mass manufacturing ecosystem to supply the world with every phone needed in the 2G and 3G era. Nor could they make the chips that went in those phones. The mid and late 1990s saw them outsource then just license their patents and know-how to other companies. A quarter of a billion 3G subscribers across over a hundred carriers in dozens of countries. They got in front of what came after CDMA and worked on multiple other standards, including OFDMA, or Orthogonal frequency-Division Multiple Access. For those they developed the Qualcomm Flarion Flash-OFDM and 3GPP 5G NR, or New Radio. And of course a boatload of other innovative technologies and chips. Thus paving the way to have made Qualcomm instrumental in 5G and beyond.  This was really made possible by this hyper-specialization. Many of the same people who developed the encoding technology for the Voyager satellite decades prior helped pave the way for the mobile revolution. They ventured into manufacturing but as with many of the designers of technology and chips, chose to license the technology in massive cross-licensing deals. These deals are so big Apple sued Qualcomm recently for a billion in missed rebates. But there were changes happening in the technology industry that would shake up those licensing deals.  Broadcom was growing into a behemoth. Many of their designs sent from stand-alone chips to being a small part of a SoC, or system on a chip. Suddenly, cross-licensing the ARM gave Qualcomm the ability to make full SoCs.  Snapdragon has been the moniker of the current line of SoCs since 2007. Qualcomm has an ARM Architectural License and uses the ARM instruction set to create their own CPUs. The most recent incarnation is known as Krait. They also create their own Graphics Processor (GPU) and Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) known as Adreno and Hexagon. They recently acquired Arteris' technology and engineering group, and they used Arteris' Network on Chip (NoC) technology. Snapdragon chips can be found in the Samsung Galaxy, Vivo, Asus, and Xiaomi phones. Apple designs their own chips that are based on the ARM architecture, so in some ways compete with the Snapdragon, but still use Qualcomm modems like every other SoC. Qualcomm also bought a new patent portfolio from HP, including the Palm patents and others, so who knows what we'll find in the next chips - maybe a chip in a stylus.  Their slogan is "enabling the wireless industry," and they've certainly done that. From satellite communications that required a computer the size of a few refrigerators to battlefield communications to shipping trucks with tracking systems to cell towers, and now the full processor on a cell phone. They've been with us since the beginning of the mobile era and one has to wonder if the next few generations of mobile technology will involve satellites, so if Qualcomm will end up right back where they began: encoding bits of information theory into silicon.

The world was on fire. Evil had spread across the lands and seas like a virus, infecting everything with death and hatred. The monstrous Empires of Europe and the East seemed unbeatable and destined to victory. To win the Allies would need to try every trick in the book, use every method of war known to them. And at times even invent new methods. The more daring the more dangerous. But in a fight that could mean the end of everything, there can be no reserves, no plans too risky. Better to leave no stone unturned. Better to lose, if lose you must, having exhausted every possible or even impossible chance. The Allies in WWII knew this and in the Pacific theatre they tried every imaginable gambit.Let’s go back to beautiful Bali and the perilous Lombok Strait. Let’s go back to the hundreds of empty featureless miles of the Java Sea. To the craggy bushland and winding river training grounds of Camp X on the Hawkesbury River. Let’s go back to the crowded shipping lanes and jam-packed wharves of the Jewel of the East, Singapore itself. Let’s go back to a time when everything was on the line, freedom hung in the balance, and a few fearless men had the courage to gamble their lives in the hopes of striking the enemy a blow. Men that recognized the truth in Faulkner’s line "You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore." Let’s go back to September of 1943 and Operation Jaywick.

In this episode, I am excited to have Jim Dwyer on to talk about how best to align your goals and values with your career experience. Jim believes that one of the core purposes of our short time here is to align the world around us, so we can live as meaningful a life as possible and help others do the same. Going into his third decade as an attorney, Jim is more committed than ever to the healing power listening can be for our clients. It's a force that is undervalued in the legal world. Jim grew up in a trial lawyer family. He is a personal injury lawyer and the managing partner of his law firm. Topics Covered Jim talks about how he started down the path of aligning his core values and intentions with his legal experience and knowledge to create the inspiration for Tipping the Scales. How Jim's mindset isn't about making problems (opposing counsel) disappear, but rather about not losing focus on your goals when in these tumultuous scenarios. How our fiduciary duties can translate to relationships outside of our firm and legal practice.

We offer tools and strategies for creating a more joyful and satisfying life. And now your host, Jeena Cho. Jeena Cho: [00:00:40] Hello my friends thanks for being with us today. In this episode I am so happy to have Jim Dwyer. Jim believes one of the core purposes of our short time here is to align the world around us so that we can live as meaningfully as possible and help others do the same. He's been practicing law for over three decades and he has committed more than ever to the healing power of listening to our clients. It's a force that is undervalued in the legal world of orderly agree with that. Jim grew up in a child lawyer family. He is a personal injury lawyer and managing partner of his law firm in Portland Oregon. And with that here's Jim. Jim welcome to the resilient lawyer I ask. Jim Dwyer: [00:01:25] Good morning Gene. As always good to be talking with you. Jeena Cho: [00:01:29] So let's start by having you give the audience a 30 second introduction to who you are and what you do. Jim Dwyer: [00:01:36] So in about the year 2000 I've moved up to Portland that's our pricing law. I woke up one morning and felt. Not internally happy about where I was in my life. And yet I looked around and I appeared to myself to have everything that should have made me happy. I still do have a wonderful marriage. I have two incredible children. I have a partner of up to practice law with I live in a house. I love the city I love. And yet inside of me was this lack of contentment. And it was very confusing to me. And what I realized just kind of thinking about it and sitting with why I was not happy with where I was when everything told me I should add is that I really felt like. [00:02:36] I needed that who I was fundamentally as a person was not being fully integrated into the practice of law. Russia another way of putting the practice of law I had not integrated into me living my best life. I compartmentalize years of practice of law. Here's me as a father. Here's me as a husband and I realized what I needed to do was align all of these critical relationships in my life to helping me. Live my best life which also meant in turn I was helping all those people do the exact same thing for them. And that's where tipping the scales I didn't realize at that time. That's where it was born from. Jeena Cho: [00:03:26] So you know as I'm listening to you tell your story I think a lot of lawyers would be like I can't seem to figure out a way to or they sort of realize that the way that they've been practicing lies really misaligned with their best selves or their true intentions. And they think this is an adequate law. Did that ever occur to you or anywhere you like this. Figure out how to make this work within the context of being a lawyer. Jim Dwyer: [00:03:53] Well when I that's a really interesting question because when I moved up from Eugene in 1990. I've been practicing law for nine years and I was really happy and I know. Am I unhappy because of where I'm practicing or how I'm practicing or am I just unhappy being a lawyer. And I mean I didn't know the answer to that question. And they decided you know rather than stopping practicing law why don't I start changing how I'm practicing law and discover. Whether. [00:04:33] Being a lawyer is consistent with me living my best life or not. And so it became kind of a grand experiment when I came up here interviewed 39 literally 39 attorneys before I found what I believed was the perfect attorney for me to practice law with who I've been with for 20 years now. Jeena Cho: [00:04:54] Wow. When did you start tipping the scales. Jim Dwyer: [00:04:59] Tipping the Scales started about five years ago. Jeena Cho: [00:05:04] Was that part of the interview process or were the interviews sort of for your own personal growth and knowledge. Jim Dwyer: [00:05:13] Oh the 39 interviews. Oh that was me actually trying to find the perfect place for me to land. I had my wife and I had given up so much to make this move up to Portland that I decided that I did not want to insult the sacrifice that really my wife and I made by just taking any job. If I was going to make this change that I needed to take the time to make sure that I landed in the right place. Jeena Cho: [00:05:57] Yeah. And what unfolded for you see you when an interviewer interviewed 29 lawyers. Why did you get out of the way. Did you learn or where did you get it. Jim Dwyer: [00:06:12] She was 39 lawyers and they didn't even know I was interviewing them either. I said my wife helped me come up this ingenious idea of calling lawyers up and saying I'm looking for work from Portland. I'm not. Looking to get hired by you but I just need to understand the Portland market which could take you out to lunch. Yeah because if I told them I was looking for work and they weren't looking for hire somebody well it wasn't going to work. [00:06:44] But everyone's really pretty willing to help people out. And so I don't have lunch and they didn't realize that I was learning about the market. I was also learning about that because I believe that I was going to be some recently I believe that I was going to be hired not by someone who was looking to hire. I would meet someone and we would so connect that we would make it work we'd find a way to make it work because of how we would connect. Which is exactly what happened. Actually. Jeena Cho: [00:07:23] So you on your part. Jim Dwyer: [00:07:26] Right. Jeena Cho: [00:07:28] Tell me about the lawyer Compass series. What is out about. Jim Dwyer: [00:07:32] So the lawyers compass was really born from the I D. I've always loved compasses for that it was because I grew up with my grandpa and we went fishing in high mountain lakes and hiking up and down rivers of central Oregon Trout Trout fly fishing. When I was young my Grandpa always had a compass with that in his pocket on his boat dashboard autist car Myhre you know those kind of like floating old school compasses that kind of float in the water and move as the car the boat moves. And I remember asking him Grandpa why do you have compasses everywhere. [00:08:20] And he said it's because I always want to know where I'm going. And that kind of always stuck with me this affinity for compasses and one thought five 0 7 years ago is in Hawaii and we're in Hawaii. You're on an island. You see compasses everywhere. Yeah. And I was looking at a compass and I saw it and thought flashed in my mind that was what a lawyer is. Compass looked like that would help me stay true to who I am and that's. Really where it was more from him. Jeena Cho: [00:09:03] You always say you know the type of lawyer that you were meant to be or you know really sort of aligning you pass this law to who you are. Like what does that mean. What does that look like in terms of those on a day to day basis. I was at the wall and looking at you and the way that you're working and let's say you know 10 years ago versus how you practice law. Now what's different. Jim Dwyer: [00:09:30] Sure. So this the center of a compass the center of the lawyers compass is the true self. And just like with an old school campus not like a digital compass you'd have on your phone an old school campus you can only take a troop bearing a true reading by standing still. At me moving you can't be running. You're not going to get a true reading. So the war the center of the lawyers compass is about understanding our true self and then integrating that meaningfully into the everyday ness of life. So an example of that would be a I consider myself a student of relationships and the relationships are one of the most powerful forces in my life. [00:10:31] And because of that I want to honor every relationship that I am in to the extent of whatever that relationship is obviously of my relationship with my wife is going to be different and their relationship with my client was going to be different with Eugene than it is with my law partner Dean. And so within each relationship my focus is on how do I bring the greatest meaning and value in this relationship to the person that I am in that relationship with. At that moment in time whether that's a phone call but a client meeting with a client face to face meeting with my law partner or my wife. So because relationships so powerful for me I want to honor them. And that's how I bring that aspect of me out into my everyday life. Jeena Cho: [00:11:33] I think that's probably easy to do with people that you like and respect them. I think that we tend to come across lots of different personalities and some personalities are very difficult to deal with it. Sure it does. How does that translate when your work. It's a very difficult opposing counsel. Jim Dwyer: [00:12:00] Well first off there's no way that a thing that I'm going to say is meant to imply that that I believe there's something we can do to dissipate all frustration dealing with a difficult person. I don't think that's actually possible. By acknowledging that I think that's all it's true. I can't make the person go away I pay a wife to or two but that's not going to happen. So for me the goal is how do I keep my self centered. [00:12:37] So I don't lose my self in a reaction relationship with someone I don't like. And I just have to keep focused on who I am and not be sort of like you're dealing with a difficult person sort of like an electorate Tim Holding a cattle prod right now they're just jabbing at you and it just every time it hits you it just makes you jump and it makes you angry. And that makes you want to. Be that back to them. Well that's just that's just I know where that puts me that puts me in a in a downward spiral cycle that is never going to serve me and never going to serve my client ever. So that simply requires self discipline. [00:13:34] And control. And not taking things. Personally I think for me that's the biggest lesson all of us to not take things personally. That attorney who's jabbing me with a cattle prod he or she is not jabbing me because I am Jim Dwyer jabbing me because I'm the opposing side and that's just what they do. I'm a fungible good. For them jabbing at so I don't really take it personally because honestly it's about them and not me. And that helps kind of lower that. That had that intensity inside of me because I could see them like Heintze repairing the deposition. When you start answering questions when you're angry or mad that's when you're going to say things you wish you never said and you can't take it back. Right. Yeah. That applies to me as well as my core I have. Jeena Cho: [00:14:37] But yeah I you think just telling someone like well you know just don't take it personally. It's only like it's entered into me. There is like this tone of I mean it's almost like principle Don't be angry like or get over it. Jim Dwyer: [00:14:52] Right. Jeena Cho: [00:14:54] That's say. What does that actually look like you know so you're on the phone with opposing counsel and he has just unreasonably. I mean not agreeing to give me an extension on something that's like that's not even important or I don't know exactly what that dispute is. So when you say like well you know I don't take it personally like there are there like me that use other tools and you know what does that actually. How does that translate in how can someone you know get better at that practice of not taking things so personally. Jim Dwyer: [00:15:28] Right. So for some reason for me understanding that they're not doing what they are doing because I am Jim Dwyer helps me. Get rid of my anger about a not like oh I'm at peace it's all fine. Say what you want to you can't ruffle my feathers. That's a bunch of B.S. because I'm not happy. I don't like it. So just because I'm feeling that does not mean I'm going to react or act from that place of the discipline of being a professional is to understand the separate yourself out from that. And what I just try to do is because once you get sucked up into it you're wrong in the gutter Yeah. And how do you advocate for your client rolling in the gutter. I I don't know. So I still have frustration inside me that this person is being a teacher to me. I'm just not going to be upping the ante and I'm doing. And that helps me just. Keep me from vaporizing inside really vaporize. Then I say things I wish I hadn't have said. Jeena Cho: [00:16:47] Yeah. Jim Dwyer: [00:16:49] OK you don't have to respond. Most of the time responding isn't going to change what they do. It's only going to make you more mad and you lose your bearings and you don't do a good job. It's fight or flight. And as attorneys we're not. Taught to fly we are trained to fight. And so there's kind of a third way inside of that and that is I don't say anything. They are waiting for you to respond. They are. They have just jab you with that cattle prod and now you're supposed to play your part. I don't play that part. And that is very empowering. And that throws them off I believe internally it throws them off because they don't know what to do. I'm going off script and they don't know what to do. There's a lot of power literally in that. Jeena Cho: [00:17:53] Thing not allowing the other person's behavior to dictate what your response is going to be. Just as you said it this empowers them. And whereas if you kind of give them the reaction that they want then they know they can just continue to hold you and they say well you know it's like oh off at work. So I mean you had a few more times and get some more reaction out of them than the lawyers that sort of engage in these jerks like behaviors you they do it because it works. Jim Dwyer: [00:18:23] Yes right. That's right. I mean you know they always say whether whatever sport you're playing it's like don't lose your cool when you lose your cool you lose your sense and your ability to function as your at your best. And that is not easy because everything in you as an attorney because you're not taught to fly. Everything is taught you to fight. Jeena Cho: [00:18:50] Yeah. So true. So you've been practicing law for a little bit. Is that the practice of law teach you about relationships and why they declined. Jim Dwyer: [00:19:07] Well you know I actually believe that lawyers it is we are actually given a roadmap or a blueprint. To relationships. And it's ironic that the profession that is so often and legitimately maligned by society as to how they treat their clients actually are the holders of a blueprint or a road map to relationships. And it's something that we all know that that was we started learning in law school. That is the three fiduciary duties that we owe our client. Full and frank disclosure. Duty of care. And duty of loyalty. [00:20:00] And if you think about those are three object ways of understanding relationships and if a relationship fails be it with a client as an attorney or your spouse or a friend or your children. I guarantee you at least to one of those three are going to be at the root of why that relationship failed. So if I'm looking to strengthen a relationship since I value relationships and I look at the relationship with my law partner it's like how do I communicate to him how important our relationship is to me. [00:20:50] Well full and frank disclosure I let him know how much I value him. I also let him know when what he is doing is bothering me because if I ignore the problems and only acknowledge the positive it's going to either eventually fail. Or going to limp along and never be what it really could've been. And then we have a duty of care. That's our actual action. How am I doing the things that I'm supposed to be doing to show that that relationship is. Important to me my pulling my weight. [00:21:35] Which is completely different from full and frank disclosure. Yeah. And then finally his loyalty and you know loyalty I think loyalty is one of the most powerful forces in our lives because it allows us to see beyond what our rational brain tells us is true what our eyes tell us is true what we hear in our ears. That allows us to transcend the senses and see more of what is possible to see the best in someone in a difficult situation. It is readily powerful and it's there at our disposal. Jeena Cho: [00:22:18] Yeah and if we think about it and use it you know that's such a beautiful framing and I think that I ever really thought about our duties as lawyers and how that can translate into just every aspect of our lives and can actually help us be better lawyers but also better spouses and friends and significant others and parents and to for and love. Jim Dwyer: [00:22:44] There's so much mystery in a relationship. Chemistry is how people get along but it's not just all chemistry. Sort of like being a doctor. There is there is a science of being a doctor and there's the art of being a doctor and the fiduciary duties is the art of relationships and if you if you want to dig into that then you can do that. Jeena Cho: [00:23:18] Lay your hopes for our profession and society. Jim Dwyer: [00:23:25] We are trained we are trained technicians to understand the if you're ever a doctor you are trained in the science of medicine. If you are an attorney you are trained in our science of understanding all the technical aspects whether it be a statute or case law about being an attorney. And we have seminars we have magazines we have law school we have we have awards where we award people for there are technical which is not easy technical accomplishment. [00:24:04] I'm not trying to put the less than that or say it's not important. It is when that's all we are focusing in on. We are missing the soul of law. When my clients come to see me I can look at this and say I'm a persons are well you know they're here because they're injured and my job is to get them money. And I I do my job by getting them the most money I can. That is so not true. It is terrifying. And my clients may not even understand what actual justice is and how it feels. But if I understand the emotional part of justice was being treated fairly and respectfully and being honored as a person is all about I am that conduit. All of us individually are this conduit of bringing the soul of law into the experience of our clients. [00:25:06] When we have awards and seminars and training and law school that deals with this human relationship dynamic though the art of listening because it is an art it is not easy then we will see. I believe the satisfaction of lawyers going up clients and a gradual change in how society views the law and lawyers. Jeena Cho: [00:25:36] Now when you say the soul of law and we'll talk about that what does that mean to you. Jim Dwyer: [00:25:43] The whole form means to me the emotional experience the feeling of law. Laws are meant to protect us to keep us safe to have rules that everyone knows how to operate ideally within and keep within those for an orderly safe society. All of that actually has to do with each of our individual sort of fruition. It's all about about individuals becoming the best that they are able to within the society that and culture that they live within. And as lawyers when we're just focusing on being the best technician and for getting the heart of why someone is coming in as they are they feel injured they feel hurt they feel wronged whether you're a criminal lawyer bankruptcy family law. [00:26:50] It doesn't make a difference. There is something hurting inside that person that is bringing them to you. And as lawyers were trained to deal with that technical part. Well here's what the rules say. This is what the law says. This is what I can do. And that's great we're doing our job. But there is so much more that we can do and how our clients experience the law through us. I can get a client from the best settlement on the face of the earth and they can leave I'm satisfied on feeling treated fairly respectfully and honored. Jeena Cho: [00:27:33] Yeah. Yeah I think so often what our clients really want is some kind of closure or an apology. Or you know just the sense that like someone heard them you know. And I know and I often just feel like we miss Ed because we just focus on you know how are we going to divide the pie how are we going to get x number of dollars and insight and give it to my client exactly. Jim Dwyer: [00:28:02] Exactly. And then they are looking for that. And that's part of what we have to deliver. But just like a doctor with terrible bedside manners who is great accurately what they're doing there's not a feeling of completeness that transaction they go into a restaurant having a best food served by hook hook created by the chef and they have the worst service like. I'm not going back there. The food was awesome. The service was horrible. It was a terrible experience. I didn't like it at all. It's like that's kind of what happens with lawyers. And that's our response we're responsible for that. Jeena Cho: [00:28:47] Yeah. Jim Dwyer: [00:28:50] You had referred on Facebook you were talking about the book just mercy. Wow. Wow. Talk about someone who is a master technician in the law and never got the sole. Jeena Cho: [00:29:10] Right. Jim Dwyer: [00:29:11] That that that man is an evil power that came from his guilty to soul fully connect with his clients. At the same time being a master technician. Yeah right. That's what makes that's what makes him so powerful. And each one of us can be that in our own right. So I read a book and somehow that got me searching and I found a book The Book of joy which is written by Desmond Tutu and the Dalai Lama. And it's a wonderful read. [00:29:54] And there's a quote in there that I want to read to is I read this really made me think about you and it said discovering more this is Desmond Tutu saying discovering more joy does not save us from the inevitability of hardship and heartbreak. In fact we may cry more easily but we will laugh more easily to perhaps we are more just alive. Yet as we discover more joy we can face suffering in a way that ennobles rather than him Vitters we have hardship without becoming hard. And we have heartbreak without becoming broken. And that that really hit a very deep place within me and it made me really also think a lot about you and the great work that you do helping lawyers find more satisfaction and happiness and. In their life through being mindful meditation is such a big part of I start every one of my mornings with meditation and some days I meditate really great and other days my head is higher meditation really helpful. [00:31:29] I can't even stop may break them for 20 minutes. Like I said this is a practice. Yeah. Some days you practice better than you practice other. Jeena Cho: [00:31:41] And then that happens to me all day that happened to me. Yes. The day I you know I often like I'll do some sort of concentration practice I'll just cannot determine and start back back up at one and not once I get past three and it's I don't. Jim Dwyer: [00:31:56] Have you know I think people who are just starting out meditation think well if I'm supposed to just be having this perfect blissful experience like I don't know not really. And sometimes you hit that they have. But lots of times you don't. It's still a practice of what you're where you're trying to get to and you just keep plugging away. But yeah. Jeena Cho: [00:32:22] Oh really, yeah. So I mean I think two lessons you know really go check out just that book hands the first book I read in the last decade and it will change my life. And you know there's this part of the book where he is sitting on the phone with someone and they have they lost all appeals and he is going to be executed very shortly. Jim Dwyer: [00:32:49] You know the next Yeah. Right over the phone call. Jeena Cho: [00:32:53] Yeah. And he says you know why don't we want to kill all the broken people. And he goes on to say you know but we're all broken right. And I think just kind of recognizing that like to be human is to recognize our own broken ness and and also in others and to hold that with compassion. And I. Oh my gosh. And you know and the other thing that I don't think I'll ever forget from that book is you know he's part of this person who is about to be executed and of course you know Brian just feels like he has completely failed you know. [00:33:32] And right in the and the and the person says You know I just want to thank you Brian for believing in me and for fighting for me. And I think that's also part of a lot that we often forget as intercropping take on the other person is not dependent on the outcome. Jim Dwyer: [00:33:52] That's right. We can give a great outcome and destroy it by how we treated them. That's where we lose kind of the soul of law Brian and not just Mercy was able just to perfectly aligned to be the consummate professional where he's a technician and focused on the soul they are both equally important. And when we combine those two that's that is a force to be reckoned with and each one of us can be that force to be reckoned with and our own rights in our own lives. Jeena Cho: [00:34:28] Does it mean to be easily that way. Jim Dwyer: [00:34:35] would say a resilient lawyer means that in the face of all of the challenges and complexities and mastery that that the law demands of us to really be the advocate the technical advocate that our client clients need that we do not lose and forget our humanity. At the same time. Jeena Cho: [00:35:08] Europol. Jim thank you so much for being with me today. Really appreciate it. Jim Dwyer: [00:35:14] It's always great talking with you.

Hyphen scales dot com Krait. Jeena Cho: [00:35:42] And we will link to that. Jim Dwyer: [00:35:45] Get them have a blog post on that. I'm posting now for four and a half years.

"When I was your age, we didn't backpack around Europe. We bombed it..." -A quote that was on a meme I saw, so not actually a quote but makes a solid point. We can tend to live sheltered lives these days. Removed by the force of time from events that so drastically shaped the world we live in today. When compared to some of the things soldiers in the Pacific Theatre during WWII had to face we live in an idyllic future straight out of sci-fi... We only enjoy this degree of normality because of what some people sacrificed.  -LIKE-SHARE-COMMENT-TAG-REVIEW- Every month we'll choose one person from the seedy world of social media notifications and send them some free stuff...
