SERIES 2 EPISODE 181: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: The would-be dictatorships are stacked up so thick they have to wait for permission to land. We rightfully fear a Trump dictatorship. Right now, however, we are being RULED by a Samuel Alito dictatorship. And now we have to take measures to overthrow it. Caught flying one insurrectionist flag at his VIRGINIA home – while he was adjudicating cases that could have benefitted the Trump Coup Attempt – Alito simply lied about it, claiming he had no role in it, then contradicted himself by telling a backstory of petty personal recrimination involving neighbors – a backstory which had its OWN set of lies. And now we know that THAT entire story was – at best – a lie of omission, because when Alito was caught improperly flying a disqualifying insurrectionist symbol in public at his primary home in 2021, he was continuing to hide the fact that through much or all of last summer he was flying a DIFFERENT disqualifying insurrectionist symbol in public at his vacation home in New Jersey. It is, as you know, the Appeal to Heaven flag, stolen by groups of Christo-Fascists from its historical role in our founding revolution and re-purposed to rationalize a fundamentalist religious dictatorship replacing representative government. As the New York Times noted in reporting this story, quote, “the phrase ‘appeal to heaven' comes from the 17th century philosopher John Locke, who wrote of a responsibility to rebel, even use violence, to overthrow unjust rule. ‘It's a paraphrase for trial by arms,' Anthony Grafton, a historian at Princeton University said in an interview,” unquote. It's a paraphrase for trial by arms, and it's been flying in public view from Samuel Alito's home. And now we have to figure out how to stop Alito from completing his plan to turn this country into a religious dictatorship - a kind of westernized Iran. On the other hand: In a surprise announcement, Donald Trump has declared himself dead. “They were authorized to shoot me!,” begins his email to try to con more money out of his dumbest cult members. Quote: “I nearly escaped death!”Uhhhh…. So… you… DIDN'T… escape death? Metaphorically, Trump may be right. The words used by the President and those around him about Trump's "Unified Reich" video are a sea change. They are calling him an antisemite. Next they need to call him a Nazi. B-Block (27:07) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Rishi Sunak, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, apparently cannot afford a weather app. It rained so hard on him he became Rishi Sunk. Larry Hogan, a Republican, insists he's always protected women's rights. Of course he's lying. And as we realize just how corrupted and unsalvageable the Supreme Court is, Jim Jordan provides some comic relief by saying something that provides an immediate opportunity to insult Clarence Thomas and Sam Alito. C-Block (34:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I ran into Al Roker the other day, so naturally I have to tell you all my Matt Lauer stories. These are the obnoxious, vanity ones, as opposed to the assault-y ones.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Terri Schiavo case was a legal and ethical controversy that lasted from 1998 to 2005 in the United States. It involved the fate of Terri Schiavo, a woman who suffered a cardiac arrest and was left in a persistent vegetative state. Her husband, Michael Schiavo, wanted to remove her feeding tube and let her die, while her parents, Robert and Mary Schindler, wanted to keep her alive and provide her with medical care. The case sparked a nationwide debate over the right to die, the quality of life, and the role of the government in personal decisions. #TerriSchiavo #RightToDie #Lawless #PersistentVegetativeState #FamilyFeud #AmericanHistory #HistoryNerds #HistoryPodcast #HistoryMystery #ThisD #TVNewsHistory #TVNewsHistory #TVNewsFlashback #OldTVNews #BehindTheNews #NewsNostalgia #forgottenstorys #AfterTheFact #Viewerdiscretion  #CaseyKasem #at40 #love #TFLers #tweegram #photooftheday #20likes #amazing #smile #follow4follow #like4like #look #instalike #igers #picoftheday #food #instadaily #instafollow #followme #girl #iphoneonly #instagood #bestoftheday #instacool #instago #all_shots #follow #webstagram #colorful #style #swag #amazing #followme #all_shots #textgram #family #instago #igaddict #awesome #girls #instagood #my #bored #baby #music #red #green #water #harrystyles #bestoftheday #black #party #white #yum #flower #2012 #night #instalove #niallhoran #jj_forum #love #instagood #me #tbt #cute #follow #followme #photooftheday #happy #tagforlikes #beautiful #self #girl #picoftheday #like4like #smile #friends #fun #like #fashion #summer #instadaily #igers #instalike #food #love #photooftheday #portrait #baby #me #instamood #cute #friends #hair #swag #igers #picoftheday #girl #guy #beautiful #fashion #instagramers #follow #smile #pretty #followme #photo #life #funny #cool #hot #bored #girls #iphonesia#movies #theatre #video #movie #film #films #videos #actor #actress #cinema #dvd #amc #instamovies #star #moviestar #photooftheday Hollywood #goodmovie #instagood #flick #flicks #instaflick #instaflicks #27club #Cobain#explore #fridayfuckery #podcastlife #podcasts #youtube #book #deus #fy #fyp #interview #podcasthost #radio #90s #apple #applepodcasts #author #bringingthefuckery #goat #superman #death --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/daniel-hudson9/message

This week, we're replaying a classic episode where Steve and Yvonne interview Gary Fox of Stewart Tilghman Fox Bianchi & Cain, P.A ( https://www.stfblaw.com).   Remember to rate and review GTP in iTunes: Click Here to Rate and Review   View/Download Trial Documents   Case Details: Inner Circle of Advocates attorney Gary Fox shares how a medical malpractice case was mistried twice before resulting in Leon County, Florida's first verdict in 17 years in favor of a patient against a physician. Premature baby Levi Slayton was taken to the doctor a few days after birth for breathing difficulties and rising bilirubin levels, which can indicate elevated red blood cell destruction and a possible infection. The doctor was negligent and failed to admit the baby to the hospital to monitor his bilirubin levels in an environment that could respond quickly. Returning home, the baby stopped breathing while being breastfed and suffered such significant brain damage from a lack of oxygen that life-support was not recommended. Levi only lived for six days. The jury assigned 100% responsibility for the baby's death to the doctor, returning a verdict of $3,373,000.   Guest Bio: Gary Fox For the past 39 years, Gary Fox has devoted his practice exclusively to the trial of civil cases in Florida. He specializes in the trial of medical malpractice, products liability and wrongful death cases. Gary graduated from the University of Florida School of Law in 1976, where he was an editor of the law review and member of the National Moot Court Board. After graduation, he went to work for the firm known as Frates Floyd Pearson Stewart Richman & Greer. He became a partner at the firm and in 1984 left to open his own firm with Larry Stewart, Jim Tilghman and David Bianchi, where he has remained since. Gary is a member of the Inner Circle of Advocates, the most selective group of trial lawyers in the United States. The Inner Circle is an invitation-only group limited to the top 100 plaintiffs' trial attorneys in America. Stewart Tilghman Fox Bianchi & Cain is the only law firm in Florida with two members in The Inner Circle. Gary was selected as the Trial Lawyer of the Year by the American Board of Trial Advocates, Florida Chapters, an organization also known as FLABOTA. The American Board of Trial Advocates is an invitation-only group of trial lawyers evenly divided between attorneys who represent plaintiffs and those who represent insurance companies, manufacturers, health care providers, and other defendants. Seven years after graduation, he became board certified as a civil trial lawyer by the Florida Bar and the following year he was certified in the same specialty by the National Board of Trial Advocacy. Gary was elected President of the Miami Chapter of ABOTA in 1992 and was elected President of the statewide ABOTA organization (FLABOTA) in 1990. In 2004 he was selected for inclusion in the International Society of Barristers, another invitation-only group of trial lawyers that is limited to 600 members worldwide. Gary represented Terri and Michael Schiavo in the medical malpractice trial arising out of the events that led to Terri's coma. The jury returned a substantial verdict for Terri and Michael and the proceeds of that recovery led to the rift between Michael and Terri's family and international publicity that followed. In addition, Gary has represented boxing champion Floyd Mayweather, Hall of Fame baseball player Eddie Mathews and All-Pro NFL cornerback Samari Rolle. Gary and Stephen Cain tried to verdict Mr. Rolle's case in Charlotte, North Carolina. The jury returned a verdict in Mr. Rolle's favor. It was the first time in 12 years a jury in Charlotte had returned a verdict for a patient in a medical malpractice case. Gary also represented Jane Doe, a rape victim, in the case against Carnival Cruise Lines that became the subject of national publicity when Carnival was required by court order to disclose the data surrounding the number of sexual assaults occurring aboard its ships.

In 1990, 26-year-old Terri Schiavo fell into a persistent vegetative state after suffering cardiac arrest. A fierce highly public battle took place between her parents and her husband, who wanted to disconnect her feeding tube. Terri's husband argued that his wife would not have wanted her life artificially prolonged, with no hope of recovery. Terri Schiavo's case spurred an emotional nationwide and international heated debate over quality of life, right-to-die and end-of-life issues. The case grew so notorious that the Vatican in Rome challenged American law which allowed for discontinuing food and water in certain circumstances, arguing for the sanctity of human life. Though the courts sided with her husband, Michael Schiavo, the state legislature passed a bill, known as Terri's law, giving Florida Gov. Jeb Bush authority to prevent the removal of the feeding tube. After much back and forth involving state and federal courts, Terri's feeding tube was eventually removed, ending the long legal struggle over her fate when she died on March 31, 2005 at the age of 41. So should a person's death be prolonged or should a person's life be allowed to end through, “mercy killings” or euthanasia? What about a person who is seeking to euthanize themselves with the aid of a physician? Is allowing such practices merciful or merciless? What does the Bible have the say about these issues? How can we understand the topic of suicide, euthanasia, and the sanctity of life as Christians?

In 1990 26 year old Terri Schiavo collapsed at her home with her husband Michael Schiavo. Terri suffered cardiac arrest and her brain was without oxygen for several minutes and she was diagnosed as being in a Persistent Vegetative State with no chance of improvement. After four years of trying everything Michael wanted to grant Terri's alleged wishes of removing her artificial life prolonging procedures. Her parents had other plans. - Find us on Instagram and Facebook Get an additional episode every week here!  All additional info and merch can be found here! - Content: 00:00 - Intro 03:54 - Start of Case 05:14 - Background 17:23 - The Accident 20:39 - The 90's/Malpractice Suit 25:34 - First Request to Remove Feeding Tube 35:27 - Schiavo 2 44:48 - Schiavo 3 46:16 - Schiavo 4 49:44 - Terri's Parents Additional Attempts 51:59 - Terri's law 56:30 - Terri's Parents Additional Attempts 58:52 - Palm Sunday Compromise 1:03:08 - Death and Autopsy 1:06:47 - Burial 1:10:30 - Wrap Up - Intro by the amazing Rux Ton - Logo by Sloane of The Sophisticated Crayon - SOURCES: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terri_Schiavo_case  https://web.archive.org/web/20190509211834/https://bioethics.miami.edu/_assets/pdf/ethics/Documents/documents/schivao/022590_police_report.pdf  https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A64459-2005Mar24.html   https://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/health/2005-02-25-schiavo-eating-disorder_x.htm  https://web.archive.org/web/20060211023027/http://www.hospicepatients.org/richard-pearse-jr-12-29-98-report-of-guardianadlitem-re-terri-schiavo.pdf   http://abstractappeal.com/schiavo/trialctorder02-00.pdf   http://abstractappeal.com/schiavo/WolfsonReport.pdf  https://scholarship.law.nd.edu/law_faculty_scholarship/612/#:~:text=Six%20days%20after%20implementation%20of,matter%20and%20report%20back%20to  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quo_warranto  https://web.archive.org/web/20180109181156/http://bioethics.miami.edu/research-and-clinical-ethics/terri-schiavo-project/timeline-of-key-events/part-2/index.html  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_Sunday_Compromise  http://www.cnn.com/2005/HEALTH/06/15/schiavo.autopsy/  https://www.9news.com/article/news/attorney-terri-schiavos-remains-interred-in-florida-cemetery/73-344728936   

EPISODE 52: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) Elon Musk boasted of talking to Vladimir Putin before tweeting his moronic "Ukraine Peace Plan" that just happened to give Putin everything he wanted. Then he blasted the reporter who broke the story - but didn't deny it (3:30) Which fit perfectly in a day in which the fascists proved reality means nothing to them: it doesn't have to BE real; it only has to SEEM real. Take Herschel Walker, now accused of demanding TWO abortions and demanding she pay for them. Meanwhile back on the campaign trail he starts talking about a bull who has impregnated three females and wants to impregnate three more (6:09) And the other new darling of MAGA, Kanye West, turns out to have been plenty crazy in the Tucker Carlson interview, but they left it on the floor. All the antisemitic tropes you can eat! (10:30) And then there's Tulsi Gabbard, who blew all the dog whistles in 'quitting' the Democratic Party just two years after she was thrown out of it (12:30) While the fascists can do nothing with sincerity or love - like Joe Biden's for his broken son - but mock it (13:34) And I am reminded of when I shared a studio with Sean Hannity and he gave away the entire Far Right Game: "Why are they so upset? I mean, it's only TV - it's not REAL!" B-Block (17:40) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Morgana in Gardena, CA (18:35) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Prediction by analysis: Garland WILL indict Trump; How can an LA City Council member take a "leave of absence," and remembering Angela Lansbury and her all-time great performance in "The Manchurian candidate." (20:26) IN SPORTS: Baseball's Rusty Champs, and Hockey's Referee Hosts (21:20) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Some Trumpers want a declaration of war against something you can't declare war against. They compete with Kevin McCarthy and Saudi Arabia for the honors. C-Block (26:50) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Somebody asked me recently "Whatever happened to Matt Lauer?" A look inside his reign of terror at NBC, and when it was directed at me because the husband of the late Terri Schaivo wanted to do an interview with me and not him. And a reminder of how the utterly corrupted Joe Scarborough responded to that story by saying "The Democrats (are) the party on the side of death."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jonathon Van Maren speaks with Bobby Schindler, brother of Terri Schiavo, on this week's episode of The Van Maren Show. Schindler advocates for the medically vulnerable and is a full-time advocate, speaker, and writer. He's a member of the American Society for Bioethics and Humanities and his writings have appeared in The Wall Street Journal, Chicago Tribune, Time Magazine, and many more. Schindler starts the conversation sharing what it was like to grow up with Terri; sharing the real happiness before the tragic story of her death. “Terri was always one that was always laughing in the house, whether it was at my dad's corny jokes or just whatever.” It wasn't long after the entire Schindler family relocated to Florida that things started to deteriorate. And then on February 25, 1990, Terri collapsed while home alone with Michael and Schindler was called by his dad to go check on her. Schindler then shares what was happening in the weeks and months following the initial collapse. Going quickly from the few months after the collapse, during which time they saw Terri improve, Schindler skips ahead to eight years later when Michael Schiavo really took the legal matters into his own hands and pushed to have Terri's feeding tube removed, despite the fact that she was not considered to be in a “vegetative state.” See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Today's host(s): Scot Landry Today's guest(s): Collin Raye, multi-platinum country music star and spokesman for for the Terri Schiavo Life & Hope Network Today's topics: Collin Raye, national spokesman for Terri Schiavo's Life Summary of today's show: Multi-platinum country music star Collin Raye talks with Scot about his conversion to Catholicism as a young, musician seeking truth as well as his experiences as a husband and then a grandfather seeing loved ones on life support that led to his decision to become a spokesman for the Terri Schiavo Life & Hope Network. 1st segment: Scot said issues concerning human life are coming to the forefront in Massachusetts, especially with a new ballot initiative on assisted suicide. As Christians, we need to be clear and informed on these issues. Our guest, Collin Raye, is a multi-platinum country music artist who recently joined the Terri Schiavo Life & Hope Network as National Spokesman. 2nd segment: Scot said he's been a fan since the early 1990s when he was living in Cincinnati. Collin said he never really fit in with the country music scene because he didn't wear a cowboy hat and his style was more pop and ballads. But he has tried to put out songs that have some meaning to it. He thanked God for his ability to make hits of songs that have something positive to say about life. Scot said the song “What if Jesus Came Back Like That” made his look at every person he met on the street in a new way, because Christ comes to us in distressing disguise sometimes. Collin said even for songs he didn't write himself, his mission was to find songs that he could sing from the heart. His first hit came out when he was 30, but he was working in music since he was 15 in many rough places. He made a commitment to the Lord in those years that he would always strive to build up the Kingdom of God and give him glory. While he would sometimes stray from the path and get caught up in pride, he would catch himself and recognize that the Enemy was at work in him. Collin said music is one of the most powerful tools given by God to worship Him (which was the original purpose of God) and to bring healing and clarity, sometimes clarity for things which Christians already know. When “What is Jesus Came Back” came out, some people criticized him for saying Jesus could come back as anything other than the Lord in glory. Scot said one of Cardinal Sean's favorite stories is of how a demented person entered New York Cardinal Spellman's office years ago and the cardinal got a call from his secretary saying a man claiming to be Jesus was there and asked what to do. The cardinal said, “Look busy.” Scot asked Collin if other country music stars would find it odd for him to step out on a controversial issue like those represented by the Life & Hope Network, including euthanasia and assisted suicide. Collin said publicists and others would tell him to not speak out or be controversial, but he was always a square peg in a round hole, speaking out on things. They always wanted him to go out there for “safe” charities, like cancer research. He was always sure that he wasn't trying to milk his celebrity for publicity. People in the industry are probably saying that his current position is understandable. Collin said he doesn't understand why euthanasia and assisted suicide are controversial because it seems so apparent what is right. He's had family members who were on life-sustaining equipment and their situation turned out differently because they didn't have a Michael Schindler trying to unplug. Collin said he never expected God to use him, but that's pretty much what the apostles said about themselves. 3rd segment: Scot asked Collin to share his own story of how his wife in 1985 when she was 6th months pregnant, she had a cardiac arrest and simultaneous stroke. She was dead for 20 minutes. She ended up in a coma for 9 weeks. He reminded us that Terri was never in a coma, but was awake the whole time. His wife, however, was in a full-blown coma. Doctors said she wouldn't make and the boy wasn't going to make. But Connie, his wife, and his son, Jacob, are both alive and well today. But that first week, he was already hearing from social workers and doctors about the need to institutionalize her. Then a few weeks later, they started hearing that as the husband he could pull the plug. “Do you want to keep her like this” and “What are you doing to her?” He realized that as a husband of three years, her parents had absolutely no say so in any decision. Obviously, he refused all those offers. She woke up eight weeks later and had to re-learn everything, including walk and talk and eat. He noted that Terri Schiavo was awake the whole time over the course of years. He doesn't understand people say he had a right. Michael Schiavo didn't have a right to state-sanctioned murder. He said the case is still relevant because it's a microcosm of something that's occurring every single day in America. Scot said he's sure it's getting worse because of the pressures of health care costs and with the new Obama health care regulations putting even more pressure to ration health care. He said people couch it in terms like, “Are you sure you want to keep her suffering?” This must be happening even more considering the state of society today. Collin said over 1,000 families have contacted the Life & Hope Network for help. The network is attorneys and doctors committed to life and fighting for life. Those in the situation similar to Terri's family now have help and guidance in 47 out of the 50 states so far. Collin said Obamacare is so much more than health care. Members of Congress themselves said they didn't even read it. Government now has control over who gets healthcare. Now it won't even be family members making these decisions, but bureaucrats. This isn't about extraordinary care, keeping heart and lungs pumping. Terri and Connie and Jacob were all on feeding tubes. Collin had a granddaughter who died in 2010 from neurological condition who was on a feeding tube. That's just food and water. Terri was starved and dehydrated to death over the course of 14 days. We would never tolerate a murderer on death row being starved to death. Scot said Terri was even able to speak. It should have been obvious to everyone. Collin recommended that everyone read the Schindler family's book that show how everyone in St. Petersburg, including government officials mistreated the family. It reminds him of the Third Reich and how it slowly started to dispose of people that it saw as flawed and a burden on society, including the sick and Down syndrome children. They even did it under the guise of compassion, saying they were taking them off the hospitals, but instead gassing them. Scot said it makes assumptions on the value of people based on how productive they are. He pointed out that the organizations pushing assisted suicide in Massachusetts are called “Call to Compassion” and “Death with Dignity” which are euphemisms. They claim that the right to life comes from the state, not from God. We can't give that right to anyone but God, including families. Once you place that right anywhere else, you open to the door to insurance companies, doctors, governments, and anyone else. Collin said some would say comparing it to the Nazis is too much, but he is saying that the principles behind it is the same. It is wrong to hand over that control to anyone else. Even if he didn't believe in God, he would still see it as wrong, because it's just logical. Call a spade, a spade. If the other side is so sure of themselves that what they're doing is right, then call it what it is, like Planned Parenthood and abortion. Scot said if we went back to the early 1960s and told them that more than 55 million babies had been aborted in this country since 1973 and we allowed husbands to put their wives to death and that doctors were participating in people's early deaths, most people would think we were crazy. Collin noted that John F. Kennedy would be rolling in his grave if he knew our country had devolved to this point. JFK wasn't about government control of life and as a Catholic he would reject all of this. Scot added that in his inaugural address he emphasized that our right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness came from God, not the state. Collin said we can't let someone else decide whether we can live or die. It's easy to say it's okay for someone else when we're walking around healthy, but if we have an ailment or accident and are cognitively impaired, it is very different. It's easy to say we'd be okay with it when we're healthy, but when we're laying there sick, it can different. Collin said Terri's mom asked her to say she wanted to live and even though she made sounds that sounded like it, the government didn't give it credence. Shouldn't any reasonable doubt have been enough. He said it wasn't government-assisted suicide, it was government-sanctioned murder. No one knows when that person wants to die. His own granddaughter could do nothing for herself, but she did smile at them. And he's known other children with similar neurological ailments who could smile, yet some people say that their lives aren't worth living. Scot said regardless of her condition, she was a gift to her family, the presence of JEsus in their lives, opening their hearts to God. Collin said what would Mother Teresa have done. She would have cared for that person until her natural death. God allows suffering and there is a value in suffering. How do we know that Terri laying there isn't paying a spiritual bill for someone else who needs spiritual help? God hears our prayers every time we ask, but He doesn't always heal every ailment because He has a plan. Collin said his own granddaughter was so precious and perfect, she wasn't made for this world. When she had done everything God had called her to do in this life, He called her home. Collin rejects those who say that ailments can be cured only if you prayed enough. God can answer prayer. He has a new inspirational CD coming out in a few weeks with a song called “I Don't Always Get What I want, I Get What I Need”. 4th segment: The reason that song, “I Think About You”, appealed to Collin was that he's an over-the-top dad when it comes to his kids. (They're 28 and 25 now.) That song is about how men look at women, even in an innocent way. We all quietly, privately notice a pretty girl and check her out. He'd never heard someone in a song remind everyone that this is someone's baby girl. It wasn't a big statement, just that we all do this and when he sees it happen, it makes him think of his baby daughter. He was shocked it was as popular as it was, he thought people would be offended. It affirms his belief that the majority of people in this country are good people who want to do the right thing. Scot noted that Collin was a convert to Catholicism in his early 20s. He was raised in northeast Texas, Texarkana. It was very much in the Bible Belt with 20 Baptist churches for every Catholic parish. He grew up Southern Baptist and knows his Bible and is grateful for that upbringing. He always felt there was something more though. He felt like something was wrong with the common Protestant doctrine of “Once saved, always saved.” He felt like conversion should be something that happens every day. Being Christian was a tough proposition but the doctrine made it seem kind of easy. In his early 20s he was looking for a church to fit him better, but none of the Protestant churches were enough. But there was a couple who kept coming to his shows and he saw their crucifixes. He finally asked them if he could go to Mass with them and he went. He walked into the church and felt an overwhelming blessed heaviness in the air that he'd never experienced before. Other churches of his experience were nice pleasant meeting halls, but this had a peace that he found out later was the Presence of Jesus Christ in the tabernacle. That's all it took for him to want to learn more and took instruction over the next few months. Every time he was presented with a Catholic doctrine, he would ask “Where is it in the Bible” and he would be shown where, much to his surprise. He is very grateful for finding his Catholic faith. He has a new album coming out at the end of October called “Through It All His Love Remains”, and will be available at Catholic bookstores and on Amazon and iTunes.
