We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. The revolution continues, we can still commit thought crimes. For now, joining us tonight is fan favorite, 10 out of 10 rated, Blake Neff. Say hi, Blake. Hello. That's where he goes. Hi, Blake. Andrew. Andrew Colvitt. Yes. Hello, sir. Andrew and Jack Pessobic. I can't wait for the Halloween episode where Blake is like, Okay, let's dive right into it. Jack, true or false? We got a tranny fired. True. 100 % true. Although, if I might add, the tranny has not just been fired. This is in the quote unquote Sarah Ashton Cirillo, actually known as Mike Ashton Cirillo, the spokes tranny for the Ukrainian military. Not just fired, but actually placed under military investigation. So very excited. Not a good thing to be under military. So do we have the tape? We have the tape of her talking about the Russian devils. And then the question is, was there a Russian devil that was taken up by other means, which actually segues to our second topic? We'll see. That is a real thought, crime. But Jack, build this out. You're on some sort of Ukrainian hit list. Ukrainian government wants you dead. So Jack, tell us about it, and then we'll get to it. So yeah, the Ukrainian government, specifically their intelligence service, the SBU, has this roughly to peacemaker, but it's been referred to as a kill list or a hit list where they will place people that they consider to be quote enemies of Ukraine. And now Elon Musk appeared on this list at one point. The pope appeared on this list at one point. Tucker Carlson, Glenn Greenwald are on this list. And while we might think it's funny or silly, there's actually an American hostage right now that's being held by the Ukrainian government, a blogger and YouTuber by the name of Gonzalo Lira, who was living in Ukraine and was posting on his YouTube channel that he disagreed with Zelensky's government. He was then summarily arrested by the special services of Ukraine and has since disappeared. There have also been people that were placed on this list, including an Italian journalist, Andrea Rochelli, and numerous Russian bloggers, as well as one girl who's the daughter of a Russian political figure who were assassinated in Russia using car bombs and other improvised explosive devices after being placed on this list. After their killings, their entries on this dossier list wrote liquidated. So I was placed on this list and I was made aware of that earlier this week, right around the same time that you were really exposing everything, this American, I guess the word is American recruit for Ukrainian forces. Ashton Cirillo was saying in this completely unhinged rant, saying all Russian propagandists will be hunted down wherever you are and your teeth will Nash as we we we show you justice, only he's not the one who was dishing out the justice. It turns out he's actually the one who's facing justice now. And so let's play the tape here. And this is now play cut 22. Russia hates the truth that their obsessive focus on a Ukrainian volunteer is simply allowing the light of the Ukrainian nation's honesty to shine brightly.

"And then it's me again, sigh says women more closely cluster around the mean of IQ guys more spread out. That's very true. That is true. And then the Stanford 81 says Yep, agree, though, although I tend to think I'm in the middle a little bit. But overall, yes, women think micro men macro. Don Meeker I am typically extremely macro. I often annoyed the S out of men because they can't hang. And by the way, that happens. By the way, there's a there's a standard deviation. And then there's people that that are outside. And I get I'm usually in my natural state, very macro. But when I go to a when if I have to go to a social function, I prefer talking to women on weekends if it's like some family thing. So I can't talk politics. I'm like because you're shocked out, but you're talked up. But you don't have the you don't have the you're not you're not necessarily at our level, right? So they're like, so do you think that Michelle Obama? I'm like, yes, dude. Like, please. I'd rather talk to the women. You know why? Because the women will tell me my nine year old. No, no. But the nine year old, they'll be like, my nine year old is getting trans by the local school board. And here's the five people I talked to and had coffee with. And the nine covers and like such really interesting. Right. And the husband and the husband's like, Yeah, I heard about that. And that's wrong. Yes. And it's like it's totally different. So it's for me, that's way more interesting. But I get the same thing, right? People know what I do for a living. And so they all come up to me and the men want to talk about the macro stuff. I totally get where we've never talked about this. This is actually very interesting. I am the same way. I don't want to talk about like, is Trump going to win? That's the you think we got a chance in 2024? I want to just throw a drink in your face. Yeah, go away. But it is more interesting with the woman goes, I watched what is a woman? And I think I'm a Republican now. Or the woman says, I'm having a really hard time with my eleven year old daughter. Yes. Here's the thing she's dealing with. That's interesting. But the tragedy is they do also forget about it faster. I think women I just know I know women who have just like seen that, like they'll see what is a woman in the back. That's horrifying. That's so insane. And then they just kind of like they get reminded that Trump is like, well, you know, orange bad man. And well, this. Yeah. But this is an interesting conversation saying why they forget about Rome. Say that again, Jay. I said there's a really interesting green text. No, no, there is a Dane Cook. You got to look at Dane Cook. Women never forget. Women have memories. Have you ever seen this? Well, we would never forget a slight there's there's a caveat. Oh, no, no, no. You got to get Dane Cook circle of fire. I know it's like circle of hell or something. It was by the way, what has happened to Dane Cook? Unless I haven't heard about I used to see him at the comedy store. Yeah, he's got somewhere handle and kind of was like, we got to bring Dane Cook back. OK, because he was I don't care if he plagiarized. His delivery was excellent. If you could look, I'll find it. Whoever was talking, finish your thought. Well, we've been very hard on women this week. Will you agree, Charlie? No, I think we've been fair. I've just complimented women. No, I know. That's why I love the topic. Yeah, we did. But the truth is right now, young women are going heavy lib while young men are going heavy conservative.

"Listen, I, now that you say it, I I'm even more convinced than ever that the SATs is just like straight up. Very equitable. We should have to make a, um, yeah, it's like a parody. Bring back the IQ test. They're making the SAT dumber, by the way. Did you know that? Like they keep making that completely. Well, they're trying to get rid of it completely, but the SAT is trying to keep up. So they keep making it dumber and dumber. Like it used to be a pretty good IQ test. Like only like three people in America would get a perfect score every year. It was really tough to get a high score on it. And they keep like lowering the ceiling to try to, because they think if they kind of squash the ceiling, it will wipe out a lot of the disparities. And they are failing at this. Such a great lie. The higher you make the standards, the more excellent everybody will become. The lower you make the standards, the more horrible everybody will become. And it's, it is across the board, whether it's academics, whether it's work product, whether it's physical education, you had that one, that one Instagram going back to like the 1950s, 60s, like we used to be an excellent physical education. That thing did like what? 4 million views. It's, it's sad. The lowering of standards and even is like the, what's that? Oh yeah, we did. I thought we did a thought crime on that, right? We mentioned it. No, I did a whole hour on it. Why do women need their own category in chess? Oh yes. Oh, that was great. That was a great AMA. That was, that was an all time classic. That was excellent. Yeah. That was one of the, I think one of the great Charlie Kirk show special. Jack, why? Why is it Jack? Well, I remember what Charlie said on there. And it's not that women, men and women excel in different things and it's, it's the right answer. Micro and macro is the best way. Men are better at strategy, geopolitics, big picture vision, sports, weather, politics, government. Women are much more in relationships, feelings, conversations, and chess is very analytical, strategic. And so like configuration, I'm actually curious, Jack, I'll throw to you. Sorry. Sorry to interrupt. I'm curious what our audience thinks about this. Do you agree with the micro macro three? It's not a matter of agreement. Well, no, I mean, but is that, is that a good way of explaining it? I mean, when we say these things, women in the audience drop into the comments on rumble. Women think macro very poorly. They do. And men think micro very poorly. It's why men don't clean up after themselves as well. Like women don't know who fought in World War II. Then that's, but that's fine. But they know all the neighbors' names and all the cousins' birthdays and men don't. So that's what I was going to say was that this was when in the Intel community, we always knew that if you wanted to target a terrorist network and you really wanted to know who's who in the zoo, you want to know everyone, you want to know the relational status, you want to know who liked who, who hated who, you had to find one of the girls. You had to find someone's wife. You had to find someone's girlfriend. Someone who was willing to talk to you from the Lord's close to them. And then boom, like I could just sense it with my wife, who I'm reasonably assured is not a terrorist, that just in our life, whenever it's somebody's birthday, whenever we have to remember something like that, she, you tell her one time, one time she will remember every, I'm talking to you like every single person in this room, like your, your daughters, your kids, she remembers all of it. You tell her one time she remembers it. Yeah, Eric is the same way. By the way, we have different gift things, right? If you if you if you're trying to find out, you know, who's the person that's going to try to, you know, plot a military strategy or retake Rome, right, Blake? Well, then there you go. All right. So here's the here's the comments. Kiss Asunder's 25 says the brain is different.

"And so what he had actually said was he found, he tweeted out this article that said, more than a third of white students lied about their race on college applications, and then half of those applicants lied about being Native American. More than three-fourths of the white students who lied about their race were accepted. So then I wrote, Ibram X. Kendi just accidentally admitted that minority applicants have a better chance of getting into college, deleting his tweet, thereby debunking his entire life's work in just one tweet. I remember this. Then Kendi goes, he goes back to me, they're lying about what I said. I post a tweet about it, which shows exactly what he says. Then he replies to this, here is their tortured line of thinking. When white applicants think they have an advantage about lying about being a person of color, then that means they do have an advantage. So that means that structural advantage doesn't exist. So then I wrote, and this is the best part. Then I wrote, I broke Kendi and just posted all the tweets. And then Kendi responds the next day, Jack couldn't deny his lies. So this is how he responded. His broke reference has a long history within racist structures. Of course. White enslavers boasted of breaking black people when they did not break black people. The resistance never stopped then and it won't stop today. He's referring of course to the black supremacist conspiracy theory of buck-breaking. So buck-breaking is essentially, Charlie, do you know what buck-breaking is? No. We should do a live reaction to that. And if you, I wouldn't want to watch it, but is a black supremacist, a conspiracy theory, even one that includes films that were made by the great Tariq Nasheed, the noted 90s rapper of such great singles as Washoe Booty. So Tariq is now in the black supremacist, I'm not even joking, is now in the black supremacist game making videos called buck-breaking. Buck-breaking of course is when a white slave owning male would then sexually punish a male slave first by typically flogging him and then subsequently sexually assaulting or raping him in front of other slaves in order to humiliate him. Now what's interesting is that even on the, on Wiktionary.com, it actually states that the term buck-breaking comes from the 21st century. Yeah, so he just, he believes in this like entirely like cracked out bizarre internet conspiracy theory, which we have, we have some images if you want to bring up 128 and 129. So Tariq Nasheed, who was this kind of colorful guy, he appeared on Tucker Carlson a few times, he has a very colorful Twitter presence. Yeah, he makes this bizarre documentary. I actually liked it. I watched it. I watched it. It is a very bizarre, like, you know, it's. You watched it? Yeah, well, so the thing is, is it's kind of like the, it's like the Karen movie that came out on like BET a few years ago. You got to be a glutton for punishment because like the plot of the movie, such as it was as a documentary, is that, you know, this practice, which didn't exist, but supposedly took place in the past and that, you know, it exists today as, and like what it is, is like modern elites are trying to turn black men gay to like emasculate the black man. And this will further systemic racism. Black men hate this, by the way. But there's some truth to that. They all complained that have you ever seen a, it's like every black actor in Hollywood eventually has to dress up like a woman. Have you guys heard about this? That's right. Dave Chappelle talked about it. He's like, I think it was Dave Chappelle. Maybe it was, I think it was Dave Chappelle. Anyways, it's like every black actor in modern Hollywood at one point or time or another has to play like a female role, like dress up in drag, right? It's like a rite of passage. It's crazy, actually. Who besides Eddie Murphy? There's a ton. The guy's in white chicks, I guess. You got to do gay porn before I got to do smart, uh, straight porn. Cause it's kind of, you know, about that. I wouldn't know that we're all shaking our heads. All right. Is that a thing, Jack? I don't know. Tell us. Yeah, actually, Jack, can you talk about this for five, 10 minutes? I mean, if you need 10 minutes, you know, what, what can I say that I, that I hear Darth disturbing things on, on the internet, but, uh, sometimes you don't have all the time. I even hear about it, guys. Jack, Jack does it. So you don't have to folks. So, okay. All right. Let's go to a, the tape of Ibram X. Kennedy, Henry Rogers, play cut one 27. You talked about the importance of defining racism. I didn't, I didn't hear your personal definition. Is there, is there one that you would offer us? Like, how do you define racism? Sure. So racism, I would define it as a collection of racist policies that lead to racial inequity that are substantiated by racist ideas. And anti-racism is a pretty simple using the same terms. Anti-racism is a collection of anti-racist policies leading to racial. Anybody want to take guess? Equity that are substantiated by anti-racist ideas. Give that man $43 million. Look, I'm going to go out on a limb. I don't know, but I would just, I don't know where all that money went.
Evangelism on SermonAudio
A highlight from Matthew: The Temptation Of Jesus Christ
"In chapter 4 of Matthew, our Savior was led out into the wilderness where He was tempted for 40 days by the devil. But what did the devil think He was going to accomplish? Did He really think He could convince Jesus to sin? And why did Jesus undergo this temptation in the first place? Those questions will be the focus of today's study. Does the Devil Think that He Can Win? Does the devil think he can win? In today's text we are considering this temptation of Jesus which occurred when Jesus goes out in the wilderness at the very outset of His ministry and the devil comes and tempts Him at least these three times over a course of some 40 days. And given the lengthy amount of time that went by and given the amount of intervals in which the devil went at Him, you have to wonder, did the devil think that one of those approaches or all of them might succeed? Did the devil think that he could be victorious? Did the devil think that he could win? It probably depends on how you define winning. If the question is, does the devil think he can win? It probably depends on how you define winning. You see, we tend to define winning, especially when it's mono e mono or one force against another force. We tend to define it in, I guess, I don't know, wrestling terms. Two men enter and one man leaves sort of thing. Whoever is the last man standing is the one who wins. When we think of this sort of conflict with these sort of stakes, we think that he who is standing at the end of it is victorious. Now, under that definition, if you think long term, we think that only God will be victorious at the end of days. We see the devil cast into the pit of fire and we say there's only going to be one standing, only one standing, that will be God Himself because He's bigger and stronger and more powerful and transcendent and all these things. Well, here's the thing. I don't think the devil defines winning the way we might. I don't think the devil believes that he can out muscle God. I really don't. I don't think that's something he believes is an option. He's going to out muscle God. However, however, he may have thought this. He may have thought that although he might not be able to out muscle God, he may have thought that he could at least become equal to God. Maybe he thought that he could at least share the stage with God. In fact, I can prove it. Isaiah chapter 14, we read this, how you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, how you're falling from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning, how you are cut down to the ground, you who weakened the nations. For you have said in your heart, I will ascend to heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I will sit on the mountain of the congregation on the farthest sides of the earth. I will ascend above the heights of the clouds. I will be like the most high. I don't think the devil thinks that he can make God subordinate to him, but I do think that in his perverted sinful mind, he thinks that he and God can be equals. In fact, he's always had a complex with that. And Isaiah 14, he says, I can ascend. I can be like the most high. He overtly says that. And God says, no, and that's why you're being judged the pride that you think you could do that. But what was the temptation to Eve? He comes up to Eve and he offers the same idea. Eve from the tree, what will happen? You'll be like God, knowing good and evil. I think the devil has a complex about this, the idea of being like God. Now, how could that equality occur? Is it possible? Well, we know, no, it's not. But theoretically, how could that sort of equality occur? Can the devil ever rank up, you know, perk up, rise up to God's level? Can he ever do that? Can the devil ever graduate and become the level that God's at in terms of power and authority and might? Well, probably not. However, maybe the objective of the devil isn't necessarily that he's going to rank up to God's level. Maybe, maybe the objective is to bring God down to his. And that's how the equality would be attained. When a child rebels against a parent, the objective isn't necessarily that I'm going to overthrow my parents. They know that's not an option. But if a child can make the parent frustrated, if a child can make the parent break ranks from their previous attitudes, if a child can make a parent sin, then what happens? Well, then we're both wrong. Sometimes children in sin are just looking to get their parents to that point of anger and heat and temper where they do something wrong. And what is the net effect of that? It brings the parent down to their level, right? We're both wrong. There's an equality that could perhaps be attained if you can take the parent down to your level as a child. Well, what do you think's going on here in the wilderness? The devil's tempting Jesus to do what? To sin. And what would be the outcome of that? Well, suddenly, suddenly then, the differences between the devil and Jesus are just a matter of degree and not of nature. It's very possible. I can't say this dogmatically because I don't know what dogmatically, but it's very possible that that's the objective. To somehow even the playing field to be like God, if I can't rise up to His level, maybe I can break Him. Whatever the case, the objective here clearly is that the devil wants Jesus here to do that which He shouldn't do, to give in the temptation of the human flesh. And as we're going to see in the text, Jesus won't fall for it. All right, let's expand on this now. Let's look at verses one and two and then just work our way through this short passage. Verses one and two. Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. This is not an accident. This is intentional. God sends him there. The Spirit leads him there. And when He had fasted for 40 days and 40 nights, which is a significant number, afterward He was hungry because He was a man of flesh and blood, just as He was fully God, He was also fully man. All right. As we said a few moments ago, this passage occurs at the outset of Christ's ministry, really at the start. It's right after He was baptized and before He recruits His disciples, which will occur later on in this same chapter. Now, verse one suggests that the Spirit, remember, had come down as a dove at Christ's baptism and lighted upon Him. The same Spirit drives Him out after the baptism. After God has said, this is my Son in whom I am well pleased, He's driven out into the wilderness in order that He would be tempted, in order that He would be tested, in order that His obedience would be put to the test in the most difficult of landscapes. Now, again, at face value, you can stand back and go, well, why? I mean, I get it happened, I read it happened, but why? Why did God the Father, why did the Spirit hand deliver the Son into just the most rugged landscape on earth, which if you've ever been there or looked out upon it, it's like the moon. It's hard to describe. When you look out at this, it looks like the least desirable place you could possibly ever spend a day, let alone 40, 40 days here. So why would He go out into that environment in order to encounter the world's toughest spiritual adversary? You're sending someone in the worst circumstance, the worst environment, in order to encounter the worst adversary they'll ever face. Why? Well, let me answer that question as best I can in the shortest amount of time I can answer it. R .C. Sproul, the Presbyterian theologian, he explained it in this way, and I'm partial to this, but he says, all right, here's the first Adam, way, way, way back in the garden, was tempted by the devil, right? The devil basically asked him some variations of the same thing, or asked Eve some variation of the same things that we're seeing here, put God's word to the test, and without any hesitation, Adam and Eve, our first parents, yielded to temptation and did that which was wrong. So the first Adam messed up, and the result of the first Adam messing up is that you and I are messed up. We might not like it, but that's the way it is. We are fallen as a result of being the progeny of our parents' first sin, our federal heads first sin all these years back. So Adam messed up. Well, in Romans 5, we see that, all right, if Adam is messed up, then what do we need? Well, we need a better Adam to come along. If Adam messed up, we need a better Adam to come along and do that which is right and live up to God's standard and to pass the tests and temptations that he might face. Well, Sproul makes the case, and I agree, that the whole objective here going out in the desert is that the second Adam would do what the first Adam failed to do, be tempted and yet stand. But here's the difference. If you think about Adam and Eve, think about the garden. Was the garden a nice place? What do you think? I would think so. Based on everything we read there, it sounds pretty grand. So Adam and Eve are just in this lush garden. There's fruit on all sorts of trees. I mean, there was one tree not to eat from. Everything else was cool though, right? So there's animals and plants and flora and fauna and just good times. It's the garden of Eden. It can't be that bad. Contrast that to the wilderness here. And what you see is that one difference between the test of the first Adam and the second Adam is the environment.

"I'm just sort of taking it all in. I kind of like that. Okay. So I'm going to play 124. The point I'm playing for this. Number one, the media all knew that he was a little bit of a Tomcat. I'm putting it nicely, right? That is the longest Russell Brand clip I've ever seen. Oh, is that right? I've never seen a single Russell Brand movie stand up. I think he's legitimately a plus talent. The guy's got a gift. Here's morning Mika. His interviews are. Yeah, no. Here's morning Mika fantasizing she could be with Russell Brand with a water bottle. Play cut 124. You've become nervous. Why are you nervous? You're a powerful woman. You've got a lovely job. What seems to be the trouble? You've got a hair like Princess Diana. You're ovulating. Don't be nervous. Don't think about what I'm wearing. What seems to be the trouble? What do you think that gesture means the way you're touching that bowl? What does that indicate? What is that? What's the subtext of that? Oh, my God. More morning Joe in just a moment. Yeah, I don't think there's ever going to be a case where something's like not consensual. Exactly. That's what I'm trying to get the guy. The guy is like, I mean, look, I say this in the least gay possible way. He's like super charming, right? This is like the biggest Chad in the universe. Yeah. I mean, he's just like total alpha. He's got the British accent. Thought crime. What? That straight men can appreciate other men as being good looking? No, no, no. I'm not making the Hellenistic argument here, Charlie. What I'm saying is the real thought crime is that what determines whether or not those statements are harassment. It is not the statements themselves. It is not the person who is making them. It is the person listening to them. Yeah, that's right. Determine whether or not in this case, Mika Brzezinski, because when I was a Navy officer, do you have any idea how many times we had to sit through the annual and then quarterly trainings on what you're allowed to say on the ship, what you're not allowed to say on the ship, et cetera, et cetera? Red light behavior, yellow behavior, green behavior, all this other stuff. But it's like he's up there and he's breaking all the rules and she's just laughing and going along with it. And it's totally fine because she's determined it's okay. But if this were Donald Trump saying all those things, and of course, and I just use him as a stand, I'm not trying to do the cliche thing, but if that were someone she didn't like who was saying the exact same things in the exact same manner, if that show is done in New York, she could file charges against him. Absolutely. Or as it turns out in this one where, you know, a decade later, he says something about the vaccine and you realize that it was sexual harassment at the time. Exactly. Yeah, exactly. That's right. So, I mean, look, they're going to try to take him out. He's handling it really well. And do you just add this to the list? Elon Musk under criminal investigation for some sort of corporate perk thing? The guy's worth 260 billion dollars, okay? If there was a problem, why wouldn't the IRS contact him? Department of Justice for corporate paperwork? And it's worse than that. It was like Tesla's like buying him a glass house because, you know, if he lives in a glass house, he can't throw stones at the government. And, you know, it's like, oh, how could they screwed up the compensation package? Which is usually done by the corporate leader. It goes public 15 years ago or so. Tesla goes public worth two and a half billion dollars. It is now worth 850 billion dollars. It has topped at over a trillion dollars. I think the median Tesla investor is pretty happy with how Elon Musk has run his company. No, but that gets you a criminal investigation by the Southern District of New York, according to the Wall Street Journal. And you're also getting sued at SpaceX because they didn't hire enough refugees for, you know, their super sensitive space rocketry program where you're not allowed to employ non-U.S. persons for it. And they interpreted that as we can't employ refugees. And so the DOJ just swoops in, sues them, wants them to take all of their money that they're using to develop the super special rockets that we use to shoot things to the moon. And they're like, no, you have to pay, you know, five million dollars in back salary to every refugee who applied to work at SpaceX and wasn't hired. So go ahead. And just like and again, like a hit job. You know, I want to read, if I can, this this letter. Just give me a moment to bring it up.

"Yeah, exactly. But you just don't see investigative journalism anymore. It's just not the same level it used to be. It's not the same. The price tag on it is much, much higher. Usually it's just reports of somebody said something on Twitter and now I'm going to write up what he said and I'm going to get a bunch of clicks off of that and that's my job. You hire a bunch of 20-somethings using Chad GBT to do it for you. But when it comes to Russell Brand or Tucker Carlson or Elon Musk or Donald Trump, suddenly there's a limitless budget to how much investigation you can do. And then you can even go down and knock on the doors of people who aren't complaint. Do you have any idea how expensive and how much time it takes to find people who are not complaining and get them to come forward? Here's look, let's be honest. Russell Brand would not have been touched ever if he would have just said, get the jab. Zelensky is great. Wear the mask and lock it down. A hundred percent. All right. Here's a morning Mika. I'm sorry. This is from a decade ago. Resurfaced last year. I apologize. So let's play cut 123. Kati Kay and Brian Chapman are here as well. And he already told Brian that he might want to disrobe.

Leo Terrell: Black Voters Simply Care About American Issues & Values
"Not controversial at all we just the do numbers are we lose 90 % of black vote which is absolutely unforgivable but when you look at people who've have done well with the black vote and both Trump and DeSantis have done well they've done okay he did very well down here in Florida the key that they I think they they they both had both of them what were they didn't treat black black voters any differently they didn't talk to black voters like they had I mean black parents care about soccer games and jobs and I it's not it's just so ridiculous I think how we overthink this thing you know I knocked on doors for two years in Maryland which has the largest population of upper -middle -class black voters anywhere in the country and then this is nothing surprising oh yeah how's the job right that's what I want to talk about jobs health care public safety I mean I think we overthink this thing and I think in this election if Trump were to win the nomination he seems to really be in the black community I don't want to get crazy you ain't gonna get probably 25 % of the vote or anything but we could really stand a really good chance at pulling anywhere from say 12 to 20 % and that would be an earthquake in a national electoral politics oh you're absolutely right Dan and your summary was perfect spot on I mean look I left the Democratic Party because they abandoned law enforcement they basically schools abandoned Dan I'm not on this radio program with you if it wasn't for quality school and that's being denied to all Americans you think inroads in with community the black by talking about American issues because everyone suffers from inflation crime, lawlessness, poor schools so what Trump is doing because I left in 2020 and yes he makes some inroads you get if Trump gets 15 to 20 % of the black vote 12 % 14 % there's no Democratic Party and I'll tell you right now he's doing much

Go to Bloomberg .com to get context. Trend cruising speed. We'll get the forecast from the Federal Reserve in about 20 seconds time alongside that Fed decision. Going into it, the price action looks like this on the S &P 500, positive by 0 .2%. On the NASDAQ, almost totally unchanged. To the bond market, yields on a two -year, shaping up as follows, near, in and around 5 % on a two -year in America, 5 .05%. Mike McKee has the decision. This is the very definition of a unanimous hawkish pause. The Fed leaves rates today in the range of five and a quarter to five and a half percent while saying growth is solid and inflation elevated, so hire for longer. Policymakers leave another rate move on the table for this year and take two reductions off the table for the next two years. The statement once again discusses, quote, the extent of additional policy firming that may be appropriate. And the dot plot shows that 12 members of the Open Market Committee still believes they will raise rates by another 25 basis points this year. The high dot at six and a quarter percent comes out of the dot plot with St. Louis Fed's Jim Bullard's retirement. For 2024, the committee now sees a median effective Fed funds rate of 5 .1%, up 50 basis points from their June projection. And for 2025, 3 .9%, up from 3 .4 % in June. The long -run neutral rate is unchanged at two and a half percent, although the central tendency range moves up to 3 .3 % from 2 .8, and the dots show seven members think that the neutral is higher than two and a half.
The Aloönæ Show
A highlight from S13 E11 Writer & Editor: Art, Justice, Culture
"Hello, welcome to The Loney Show. I'm your host, John Mayolone. In this episode, don't have any regulars, because reasons, I guess. As for our guest, he's from Exeter in the United Kingdom. He is a writer, artist, and also editor. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Sean B .W. Parker. Hello, thanks very much. Nice to be here. Anytime. So, how's life? Life's fine. It's in the middle of a heatwave here on the Sussex coast in England, so we're burning up, but getting on with work, you know. Oh yeah, same here. So, have you been up too much recently? Well, I'm constantly editing and writing. It's what I do, and some painting as well. So, at the times that we're not absolutely melting here, I was at the falsely accused day yesterday up in London, supporting other colleagues there outside New Scotland Yard, so that was exciting. Ah, okay. That's pretty cool. So, as a writer, artist, and or editor, how long have you been going on for? Well, I started to write at the age of 14, so back in 1989, and had my first poem published in 1995 in the local paper, and for the last 10 years, since 2014, I've published eight books and contributed to four more. So, I mean, I've been doing it for 30 years, but as a professional, in inverted commas, for about 10. Nice. What inspired you to become a writer? Probably Mr Robert Smith of The Cure, I think, in the first instance, back then in the 80s, understanding the worlds that these artists can take you to. And then discovering Mr Dylan Thomas, the poet from South Wales, was revelatory in my 20s. So, putting those together with various, the fact that when you enter into a world of verse or poem, can kind of take you to another place is very beautiful, and I'm an enthusiast of the English language. And so, yeah, it just all comes from some kind of inside source that you can't really locate. Ah, fabulous. And what about artists and editor? At what point did those inspirations came along? I've always been interested in art itself. I got my degree from the University for the Creative Arts in Surrey, around the millennium, and got a Master's there as well. And my speciality was in abstract painting and video art. I've continued to paint, given a chance. And so that's always been undercurrent. I've never really been out there kind of marketing myself in the art world for unknown reasons, but for the fact that I'm much more confident in writing and it's more flexible and there are more opportunities. But they do go hand in hand completely for me. So, yeah, I don't know if I answered. Yeah, that was a very good response. So where would you see yourself 20 years from now? 20 years from now? Well, I am very much a live in the moment kind of person and I don't go much before next week, beyond next week. But 20 years from now, of course, almost all artists I know would like to increase their reach at any stage. And that's part of what the podcast revolution is all about. And the independent way we can do that these days is fabulous. So you kind of connect up all these things. The albums on Spotify, the books on Amazon, the news on X. And you kind of tie all those things in together with brilliant kind of podcasts like this, who are able to tell the world about it. And there's this kind of subculture of kind of connected streams, which is really interesting. And we'll see what that leads to in 20 years time, if that is the established norm, which I'm sure it kind of will be. Nice, nice. Have you ever thought about living in a world that is literally nothing but gardens? I have never thought about that. But that sounds like a very nice idea and somewhat heavenly. But also possibly without the additions of the modern world, which I also like, like concrete and nightclubs and things. Ah, yes, of course.

Dateable Podcast
A highlight from S17E4: Following Your Intuition (in Dating) w/ Nikki Novo
"Hi, I'm Yui Xu. And I'm Julie Kraftchick. We're active daters turned dating sociologists. Here to dive into everything modern dating and relationships. Welcome to the dateable podcast. Hi, hi, hi. Welcome back to another brand new episode. This is a repeat guest, but someone who we talk about constantly. She changed my life. Not only does she change your life, but she's been on our mind for three years since the last time we spoke to her. And I couldn't believe it when I was looking at how long I had been since she'd been on the podcast. And I was like, wait, feels like we just spoke to her yesterday because I think about her constantly. That's so weird. I also think about her constantly. She is my secret girl crush as well. Who are we talking about? Nikki Novo. Nikki Novo, we had her on the podcast back in 2020 season 11, episode 14. What's holding you back? So she's an intuitive, she's an author. She wrote a fabulous new book and she did readings for us. So she did readings back in 2020. And for me, I was at a very pivotal point that I had just ended my relationship with my on again, off again boyfriend of five years. We had done that final in COVID. We're either doing this or we're not. All the same issues came back and I realized that I wasn't doing this and actually, okay, so another part of why Nikki Novo is so important in my life that I'm not even sure if I really fully shared is with my ex. One of the things that was really challenging with that relationship is that he was very hot and cold. Like it was like, I'm in love with you. I want to be with you. And then I need my space. I need time alone. And that was really hard for me. Like I did not do well with the inconsistency. And of course he did that again. It was like we had this wonderful time together and then it was, I need that space. And I went to the park and I was so like upset about this cause I'm like, here we go again. It's the same shit happening. And I read Nikki Novo's book, The Final Swipe, her first book, because we were prepping to have her on the podcast. And I remember reading the book and I was just like, I don't want this relationship anymore. And that was such a turning point for me. I think it was like that final turning point for me. Like I had been building that up for a while and then like reading that, like reading whatever she wrote resonated with me so much. And I like came home and I'm like, I don't want to do this anymore. No, no. That was The Final Swipe. It was The Final Swipe. It was done. It was done. Well, she has this way of just putting thoughts in such a clear framework. That it's not like it's new for you. It's not like those the first time you ever thought about this as being this being final. But she just puts it in a way that you're like, yeah, of course. Like, I don't want this. If you put it that way, I don't want this in my life. And this is the final straw or the final swipe. So I appreciate her clarity in the way she expresses herself. And when she did my reading, you know, I was like, just celebrate my two year anniversary. We were kind of fighting that whole weekend on our anniversary trip about what is the future. And she said, listen, no need to be so anxious. You are going to live a non -traditional life. Your path is non -traditional. So stop trying to fit into that traditional future that you see. I was like, done. That's all I need to hear. That's really interesting because like I OK, like in the moment, of course, when you were going through that and you had that reading, you were really trying to make it work with your ex. And I heard that as like maybe you don't get married, but you have like a non -traditional life with him. But now, like looking at where it's going, that could just be a lot broader than with him. Yes. Yes. And I think it was still applied to our relationship. We had a pretty non -traditional trajectory. But, you know, when this relationship ended, I was like, that doesn't need to be the path I go on, you know, and her words came back to me and I was like, yes, I'm meant for a non -traditional life. I know. And, you know, because when I did the reading, I just ended this relationship and then I was really at a crossroads of, OK, what's next? And she really gave me hope that this was my year, that the person was around the corner. You know, I did end up meeting my partner in that year from that reading. It was like my year around my birthday, as she predicted. But more than anything, it was the mindset shift it gave me. It was the fact that I had the confidence that it was going to happen. It was just a matter of when, not if. And I think that was like a big shift for me, because in the past, like I definitely had that thought, like, what if it never happens for me or what if I never meet this person? And just changing that mentality, going into every date and being like, OK, is it this person? And if it's not, then just being like, OK, it's going to be the next person. And she did warn me, too, of, you know, you're going to go through that like rocky time. And I definitely did. I was able to get through it because I didn't get discouraged. And it kind of goes back to that perseverance again. Like, I think that's so important of you just keep going because, OK, I don't think dating is a numbers game in the sense that you need to be dating all these people at once. And, you know, you really have to be like churning through people in the sense of knowing what works for you. I do think getting clear is probably more time effective than going on date after date after date with no clarity and no intention. But I do think you have to be realistic that in today's world, the first person you swipe on is not going to be your partner for life. Like, right. I probably went on like 500 dates before I met my partner. I think that's what we calculated when we did the episode with your friend, you know, rough back of the napkin math. But, you know, like I probably swiped on like 10 ,000 people. What do you think about it? Like this didn't happen overnight. So you have to kind of go through it. But that knowing knowing that it's going to happen, it made me approach dating a lot more positively. Yeah. And it does make you think, too, because I think we should give that advice to you. It's like everybody who does come into your orbit serves a reason. Yeah. So if they're not the right person for you, you can still learn something from them and then move on from it because that's not your person. It's like not time wasted. And we're not just like sitting around waiting for that person to show up at our doorsteps. We still got to be out there learning from people with people before we meet the right person, which is a mindset I'm in now because it was I again foray back into dating. I've been a little gun shy with online dating, but now I'm going on this. I'm taking myself on a romantic trip to Greece. Yes. And I'm going to be taking all the condoms with me because I feel like maybe, you know, dating abroad, strangers, no strings attached. Maybe the best way to get myself back into some sort of like a romantic mindset. You know, I don't need to think about the future. No, I just think about the now and have a great time. That's where you are right now. And like, I think as long as your mindset is open and positive, then you'll attract people into that orbit. Yeah, for sure. Into my web, my sex web. I'm just like picturing you on this cruise, like, you know, like Titanic style, just like in the front of trolling for a day.

Evangelism on SermonAudio
A highlight from Ministry Amid Spiritual Warfare (Eph. 6:1922)
"I am afraid that we are re -entering a season of doubt. Inflation, as you well know, is continuing to grow. It's pushing prices up in every single sector. You know very well that there was concern a couple years ago due to a virus which threatened how the church would meet. And it's beginning to look like there are similar measures returning on the horizon. And a couple of days ago, we saw that the governor of New Mexico suspended the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution within her state, stating to the press that no right is absolute, and that there are limitations on her oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States. Such things make us wonder how much longer the country we know will continue to exist, and whether the church, which resides here, will continue to enjoy the freedoms that we've historically held. When we watch the news and we see such things, we're tempted to feel anxious and frustrated, maybe even righteously angry, sometimes unrighteously angry, and in general just beat down with the news. And there's no doubt in my mind that Paul experienced similar emotions through the many trials which he endured throughout his ministry. But he reminds us here of what? That we're engaged in spiritual warfare. We should expect such things as spiritual forces of darkness arise against the church and against God's people. And he tells us of the enemy we face, as well as the armor that we must don if we are to stand in the day of battle. Now we've been looking at this as we've been going through this section, and as we've done so, we've noticed that there is a particular way in which we can stand. In fact, there is, in fact, an ability for us to stand. We can stand. We are able to stand. Sometimes we just need that hope that we can stand against our enemy. And how is it that we can do this? That we find the ability? Well, in verse 10, remember, he says, be strong in the Lord, not in yourself, but in the Lord, in the strength of His might. As to the armor in verses 11 and 13, we read that we must put on or take up the full armor of God. It's God's armor. It's not ours. God doesn't tell us to go out and fashion our own armor for this warfare. He is providing it for us. And since verse 12 informs us that our battle is in the spiritual realm, well, we're already seeing where our focus must be if we are to obtain victory. And consider again why this is called the armor of God. We read in verse 14 that we must gird our loins with truth. But where do we obtain truth in a world full of deception? We get it from God, from His Word. We also read that we need to wear the breastplate of righteousness. But since I have no righteousness of my own, where do I obtain it? From Jesus, that's right. We read in verse 15 that we must have our feet shod with the gospel of peace. But who offers the word of peace? Verse 16, we see that we're to take up the shield of faith. But didn't we not read previously in the book of Ephesians that faith is a gift? Yes, it's a gift from God. And in verse 17, who offers the salvation with which we can protect our heads in battle? It's the Lord. And we've seen that each one of these pieces of armor are pieces that He has in fact worn to battle in the Old Testament and elsewhere. Oh, and by the way, where's that sword that we're wielding in battle? Oh, it's right here. It's God's Word. See, this is 100 % God's armor. As such, we see why we must pray. Verse 18, the word with that starts the verse tells us that we're to take up this armor alongside of or through the action of prayer. And we must utter our petitions and prayers unto the Lord. We are not only letting the Lord know of our requests, but we are actively engaging in spiritual warfare. In fact, we are seeking to be strong in the Lord and in His might and so of course we are on our knees in prayer asking Him for such things. Going to the throne of grace for the grace that we need. As such, we also find that prayer is vital for our spiritual armor to make sure that it is fastened correctly. Now this prayer, as we now get into these verses, is to be offered for all the sakes. And in fact, at the end of verse 18, he says that. But verse 19, he adds, and pray on my behalf. And of course, the apostle Paul is one of the saints and he asks for prayer for himself as well. Why? Because the apostles' life and ministry are also embattled. And so he is praying for, or he's asking them for prayer for his ministry just as he's praying for them for their ministry. He is seeking their prayers as he is seeking to further the proclamation of the gospel message. He's practicing what he's preaching. So as we consider Paul's position, certain truths arise from his ministry that guide us today. Regardless of the state in which we find ourselves, if we are to continue calling this a ministry, let alone a church, there are then two principles which we must consider and must continue to hold. The first of these is that embattled ministry still cares for the furtherance of the gospel. We can't use the fact that we're embattled as an excuse to stop furthering the gospel. The second is this, it still cares for the people of the kingdom. It still cares for the people of the kingdom. And we're going to look at that specifically and break that down as we get to those verses. But let's first look at that, look at the fact that embattled ministry still cares for the furtherance of the kingdom. And so he says in verses 19 and 20, and pray on my behalf that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel for which I am an ambassador in chains, that in proclaiming it, I may speak boldly as I ought to speak. Paul tells the Ephesians to pray for all the saints. And as I said a moment ago, he includes himself in that. And he could have said a hundred different prayer requests perhaps for what he might need them to pray for. None of them would necessarily be wrong. For instance, he could have asked them to pray that he would be set free. And I'm sure there were Christians praying that on his behalf. He could have asked them to pray that he would be in a more healthy place than in one of those damp, cold cells that he would be residing in. They could have prayed that he would receive the gifts that people had sent to him, including food, because some of those items would sometimes get stolen by the guards or by others. He could have prayed that the Lord would give him tolerance for the smells that were surely there. They could have prayed a lot of different prayers, and he could have asked them to pray for his welfare. But what he prays for here when he prays, I mean, think about this. He says to pray that utterance would be given to him to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel, that in proclaiming it, I may speak boldly. I'm sure he considered some of those other things, maybe just in passing, maybe with a little bit more weight, but he decided I'm going to put down the most important prayer request, and it's this, boldness. Boldness. He places a heart for the lost on display with such a request. And we see that he is asking that he would not shrink back in battle as he is sharing the gospel message. Now, of course, it's not that we're, well, not to pray for our needs or ask others for help. Of course, that is exactly what we should do sometimes. And we've studied that last time in verse 18. Sometimes we get to know what the saints need and we pray for those items specifically. The Lord commands us to bring our requests before him. Philippians 4, 6, let your requests be made known. And in the next verse, Paul says that he's sending Tychicus. Why? To give them more information about his circumstances. And so he is going to let them know about his issues. And in a later imprisonment, Paul in 2 Timothy 4, 13 will ask for his cloak and for other items. And so, yes, he does let them know about specific things. And so it's not wrong to ask about certain things when a ministry says, we need this, we need that. That's not necessarily a bad thing. And Paul does not consider himself above the concerns of this life. We shouldn't take away any of that from what he asks for. But Paul in writing this is asking for the most important thing in his mind. If there's one thing to pray for, pray this. The advancement of the kingdom. Pray for the advancement of the kingdom. And so he asks them to pray that he would receive utterance. Sometimes we think of utterances in these kinds of contexts as a supernatural opening of the mouth. But the apostle Paul has already been producing prophetic material in the form of this very letter. He's not asking them to pray for more inspired utterances in that kind of vein. But he is asking a prayer request which should be frequent on our lips. That the gospel would be proclaimed. And that's the kind of utterance he's praying for. Consider this, Paul's currently chained, not to a wall, but to a Roman soldier. He's not just by himself. Remember, this isn't a Christianized American prison where a true Christian detainee may speak with a corrections officer about Jesus without undue fear of persecution. This is a dank, paganized prison in the Roman Empire. Which looked down upon Christians as being backwater, uneducated, atheistic cannibals in some cases. And so Paul, who is already in a bad situation, faced the potential of a Roman soldier making his life all the worse as he is chained there for hours on end to this man. Who probably wouldn't face too many repercussions for the occasional black eye or bruised rib. And here Paul, a criminal, quote unquote, right? A criminal talking to a dutiful soldier about his sin and his need for salvation through Jesus Christ. A man, by the way, who just happened to be crucified like a criminal by the Roman Empire may not go over that well. We think of Paul as someone who's bold, but he was a man just like any of us. In fact, one of the criticisms of Paul is a false criticism. But one of the criticisms was that, oh, he's bold in his letters, but in person he's weak, he's timid. Now, I don't think that he was weak and timid in person, but he was a man. And as a man, he was given to fear and anxiety and concern just like any of the rest of us might be. Paul isn't one that we remember as being cowardly, but that's not because of any bravado or machismo on his part. He rested in the strength of the Lord and now he needs extra strength. Considering that he has zero recourse or escape if the situation sours, it's not like he can just be let out a window somewhere like in previous times. And so he asks for an open mouth here. He also prays for an open door in Colossians 4 -3. If something is to come about with all of this, with this imprisonment, with the conditions that he's in, it must be something that the Lord arranges. And that's exactly the kind of attitude we should also cultivate. We might not be in the same exact situation, but we understand the fear and concern of sharing our faith. And so we ask that the Lord would make something of our situations. And he prays that there would be a boldness to his words. See, the gospel provides us with great hope. So 2 Corinthians 3 -12 says that we should use boldness of speech. We shouldn't be questioning or timid with our proclamation. You know, when Christians speak to unbelievers, there shouldn't be any doubt or uncertainty to the truthfulness of the message that we are proclaiming. If there is, then that communicates misgivings on our part, and unbelievers will just use that as an excuse for continued unbelief. I think Jesus is the way. Oh, you're not sure? Okay, well, let me know when you're sure and then you can talk to me about it, right? Of course, the devil will assail us with concerns and doubts in the most inopportune times, which will be an attempt to try to manipulate our presentation. He'll try to tempt us to react poorly to the responses of the unbelievers to whom we speak. So Paul prays to speak the truth of the gospel in clear, unequivocal terms. And that's something that we should pray for as well. And again, Paul doesn't expect that the strength would come from within him. He rests in the Lord. Since he sees himself as an ambassador for the gospel, according to verse 20, he's also asking to properly represent his king and kingdom. This, by the way, is also a thought we should apply to ourselves, for he says in 2 Corinthians 5 -20, we are ambassadors for Christ. I think when I was in youth group many, many, many years ago, that was actually the verse that was emblazoned on the wall. Ambassadors for Christ. That's something that we should think of ourselves as. So, prayer should include, so the prayer here should include a petition that Paul would have proper, bold representation of his king. And may we also have proper, bold representation of our king. Ambassadors should represent their Lord. Now typically, if we're talking about ambassadors, we want to take that a step further. They were also treated with some respect. Traditionally, their official representations of foreign dignitaries and guests in neighboring countries to detain and incarcerate such a person would be tantamount to imprisoning the king of that land. But in an ironic twist, Paul's an ambassador in chains, incarcerated there in Rome for the sake of the gospel. Paul could have looked at his circumstances and despaired. Whenever things don't go right in life, especially when we are doing the right thing, I don't mean when we're doing the wrong thing, but when we're doing the right thing and things are still going poorly for us, we are tempted to give up on doing the good thing. But that's just part of the battle that we're going through. See, sometimes we go through struggles because we're doing good. And of course, that challenges us to reconsider why we're doing it. But we are sometimes attacked because we are Christians who are doing the right thing. We put targets on our backs. And for those honestly seeking the Lord as Paul does here, they will thankfully find that he helps his children to endure such hardships because without the Lord, we would run out of strength very quickly. And so Paul prays for an opportunity to announce the gospel. And again, he asks them to pray that in proclaiming it, he would speak boldly, which he says is how he ought to speak. Another way to consider this is that Paul prays for his own effectiveness in spiritual warfare. Again, while many of our other prayers are fine and right, we should consider whether this is ever the kind of prayer that we should pray for ourselves and for others in the church. And as we continue to grow or continue to grow in our ability to pray through the grace given to us in the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Holy Spirit, may our range of prayers also grow as we pray for the advancement of the kingdom. And I hope that that's something that you pray for as well, the advancement of the kingdom. Because we are going to be embattled and we're going to face many things to pray for. And I'm not saying don't pray for those other things. You can pray for those. But pray foremost for the advancement of the kingdom. Well, as we consider not only our prayers for ourselves, but also for others, we shift now to the next point. We've seen that an embattled ministry is still to care for the advancement of the kingdom. We also see in this passage that an embattled ministry still cares for the people of the kingdom. And we see that in verses 21 and 22. But that you may know about my circumstances, how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make everything known to you. I have sent him to you for this very purpose so that you may know about us and that he may comfort your hearts. And so he instructs Christians, of course, to pray for all Christians here. And he wants them to have a concern then for their fellow believers. That follows logically. He cares for them. He knows that the Ephesians are going to have many questions and he's going to try to answer them. He's going to send someone along who is dear to him, who can go in his stead and to give the Ephesians a detailed report so that they will know. Why does he go through that? Because he cares for them. This isn't like sending an email, guys. This isn't like sending a text message. This is going to cost some money to send someone, to fund the travel of someone back to where they are in Ephesus and to give this report. That's going to be expensive.

Tech Path Crypto
A highlight from 1256. $300 Billion Coming To Bitcoin ETF w/Mark Yusko
"All right, so welcome in today. We're going to be diving into topics around ETFs and also what is happening with the SEC in terms of their enforcement actions and some of the things they've been doing that could be causing a slowdown in innovation for blockchain. We'll break into all this good stuff today. I think you'll like it. My name is Paul Baron. Welcome back in to Tech Path. Joining me today is a regular guest, one that I think you guys all love, and that is Mr. Marc Usko coming in from Morgan Creek Capital. Great to have you on the show today. No, great to be with you, Paul, as always, and happy Friday. It's going to be a good one, Marc. Let's first of all get into a few things. I want to lead off the show with a tweet from James Seyfert, who is one of the Bloomberg analysts on ETFs. He does a really good breakdown. He's been on our show before. There's some dates to watch here. We've got middle of October, next major days to watch. October 16th with Global, and then also October 7th. And then you've got all these scenarios playing out right here with iShares, which of course is BlackRock. I'll zoom in on that a little bit so you guys can see it. Second deadline coming up on 10 -17, and then a slew right there on that same day. First of all, I want to get your opinion on, do you think that this October is when the SEC might actually give us an early Christmas present? Or are you just going to get pushed again? No, look, I'm 50 -50 at this point. So I do think more tricks than treats for anyone who's 10 -17 date. So any decision before that date, I think is a negative decision. I'm not sure it'll be an outright denial, but will definitely be an extension and a push. And then we come to the big dog. I believe, and I've said multiple times, that BlackRock will be the first one. I've actually been saying that for over a year. I actually might even go stronger and say, oh, that'll never happen. That would be too much corruption. Well, I'm just saying it's certainly possible. What's probably more likely is BlackRock first, and then a gap, and then some number of others. But the thing is, whoever's first is going to get the vast majority of assets. Vast majority. Well, first mover is always going to be taking. I mean, that's just like the gold ETF, kind of the same kind of scenario. Yeah. The gold ETF is an example with GLD. You had the Bitcoin futures ETF with Bitto getting 98 % and then a couple others getting like 1 % each. So that's just my belief. And I believe it's who you know in this game, not what you know. There are a lot of people who have should gotten approved. The Winklevoss twins were the first to apply. They should have gotten approved. There was no reason not to approve it other than, again, kind of the way the game is played and the people in charge want to be in charge. So any new disruptive players I think are unlikely. Cathie Wood partnered with one of our companies, portfolio Amun, to do 21 shares. That looked like a great application ding pushed out. I think Bitwise is a day ahead of iShares on 10 .16 as much as I would love it. Again, portfolio company, full disclosure. I would love for them to get approved. I just don't think it's going to happen. Again, I don't think it'll be denied. I just think they'll be pushed. And here's why I'm 50 -50, Paul, to answer the question. I think they could approve on the 17th, but I don't think they will. I think they'll push it into next year. So you push 90 days. That gets you into January. January 15th. Yeah. You could push again then into March, April. But that's it. Then you have to approve. Now, what's interesting is we have this little thing called the halving coming up in mid -April of 24. And so it would be an interesting alignment of stars. But I said, could they pull the trigger on BlackRock in a month? Yeah, they could. Yeah. All right. Well, with that and to your point, the third deadline, just so everybody can put it on your calendar out there, you've got January 15th for BlackRock and then moving in all the way into March, what we're going to discuss there. March would be an interesting timing. I think you're right, because obviously the halving right there on the cusp of that, along with maybe a little bit of lightening the load in terms of inflation, because I feel like we're going to continue to see some inflation hits through the end of the year. What is your thought on how the inflation numbers came in this week and how the Fed might react? I don't think the Fed cares about gasoline prices, quite honestly, Paul. All this little blip is gasoline prices, all of it. I think most of the other components were actually negative. And the gasoline prices are because Saudi has decided to go a different direction. We had a very hunky dory relationship with Saudi from 1973 till now. And that's clearly over, right? The big guy went over to Saudi right before the election last year and tried to get them to pump more to get oil prices down and gasoline prices down, because there's this inverse correlation between presidential popularity and gas prices. And they basically said pound sand. And so he came down, he came in and said, well, this is a convenient decision to get gasoline prices down. Guess what happened? Democrats did pretty well in the election. And because there's no way out for that now, though. I mean, there's no way. Now we have an empty SPR. And the thing is, we can't fill it up ourselves because, and again, not to get too technical, but there's, there's light sweet crude, which we produce and a number of other places, Nigeria and others produce. And then there's heavy sour crude, more sulfur content, because we cut this deal with the Saudis in the seventies, we built all of our refining inventory infrastructure, sorry, around processing heavy sour. Yeah. Well, here's the problem. If now Saudi is going to sell their heavy sour to China and Russia and other places, and we're not going to get as much of it, what are we going to do? Well, we've got to build new refineries or retrofit the refiner. It turns out no one wants a new refinery in their backyard. Yeah. I think I'm right. It's been like 30 years since we built a refinery. It turns out they spit out, you know, pollutants and things like that. So nobody really wants one around. We all like driving cars by the way. And and living our lives and, you know, Oh, well, you know, we can, we can stop using oil. No, we can't. Nothing you do every, I mean, everything you do every day, the vast majority of it is powered by oil and gas, the vast majority. And yeah, you say you could get an electric car, but where'd the steel in that car come from? Did they make a little electricity? No. How about the plastics? Nope. Oil. So it's just, it's kind of comical when I hear we're going to, you know, outlaw fossil fuels, but back to the inflation number I think this might not be temporary in the sense that Saudi announced, they're going to do a voluntary cut. Why? Cause they're just sticking the knife in a little bit deeper because they're like, all right guys, you said you were going to refill the SPR. You didn't do it. Oil prices were all the way down in the sixties. Could have easily done it for sure. Now oil prices are in the nineties. Yeah. We're going to hit a hundred bucks a barrel for sure. How does this, okay. So when you look at that Mark and you look at an election year coming in, you've got all this pressure from the macro side, including most likely jobs market getting a lot stiffer. Companies starting to really get some pressure on. We had bankruptcies at the highest point ever. We've had a very long period of time for independent companies. This does not look like a rosy picture. Where do you think we come out of this in relationship to the timing of the havening, a Bitcoin ETF, maybe into next summer? How far into 2024 do you think this happens? So I believe the ETF will be approved sometime around year end, whether it's in early January or December, sometime in that timeframe. And I think that will pave the way for a very large influx of capital. I know you've had Eric on the show about Eunice and he does this great work, right? I mean, there's 30 trillion with a T 30 trillion. Remember 1 trillion is a dollar every second for 31 ,710 years, but 30 trillion is going to come into, or that's the total amount of money managed by RIAAs and others that is not allowed at this point for whatever silly reason to own Bitcoin. And they can't own GBTC and they can't own Bitcoin miners and they've called a timeout. Well, once there's an ETF, particularly if it's an ETF that BlackRock runs, there are going to be no excuse and they're all going to have to approve it. Their clients have been asking for it. I would say I have a family harmony account at UBS. They let me buy what I want to buy. And they're like, no. So I think all that goes away. And I think Eric's number is, let's say one 10th of 1 % comes in. That's 30 billion. Well, but wait, 30 billion on 500 billion. That's not that much. Well, no, it's not 500 billion. 400 billion of the 500 billion of Bitcoin's market cap doesn't really trade. It's either locked up like the Satoshi wallet or the Winklevoss wallet or, you know, hodlers that just said, you know, take it out of my cold, dead hands. It's only about a hundred billion that is the free float to borrow a TradFi term. And so 30 billion on 100, that will move the price. But I don't think it's going to be 10 basis points. I think it's 1%. I think you have to do 1%. As a fiduciary, if you got, you know, 50 % in equities at some of the highest valuations in history, and you got another 30 % in bonds, which have had the first two negative years in the history of the bond market, 140 years of history, two negative years, looking pretty ugly. And you got this asset that is the best performing asset again, 11 of the 14 years that Bitcoin has been alive. It's been the best performing asset of all assets. It's the best performing asset then this year. Yeah. Eric hit on his prediction about 150 billion in terms of market impact. Do you like that number or do you think that he's still like it? Well, again, I think 150 billion would be half a percent, right? Instead of 10 basis points. And it looks like he's updated his, his thoughts. I'll go further and say 1 % seems more likely that'd be 300 billion, 300 billion on a hundred billion of free float price goes up a lot, a lot, a lot. And here's the, the interesting thing, Paul, is the way halvings work is the fair value increases. So we've got a tailwind that the fair value today based on Metcalfe's law model that Tim Peterson runs and that I think is fantastic, says that the fair value is somewhere in the low fifties, 52, 53, let's just call it 50. So at the halving, fair value doubles. What do you mean, Mark? What are you talking about? Well, think about it. The miners who secure the network, their costs are fixed, mining machines and electricity. So if their block rewards, the number of rewards that they're paid to secure the network gets cut in half and the price doesn't move, then they're out of business. So there's a built in mechanism to move the price higher, which is actually really interesting because that attracts attention because there's movement. And so long story short, fair value, every halving added has a zero. So we went from a hundred to a thousand, then we went from a thousand to 10 ,000. Now we go from 10 ,000 to a hundred thousand. So a fair value is a hundred thousand and we're trading at 26. It's a pretty rapid increase to fair value, I think, as investors buy things that are below fair value. But then what happens in the post fall halving, you get this parabolic blow off top. And in the previous cycle, fair value was around 30K. We got all the way to 69. That was because there was too much leverage and too much gambling and speculating. I don't think we go 2X this time or two and a half X this time. Could we get one and a half X? Sure. That gives about 150K, something like that. Yeah. Well, that is OK. So that's very intriguing. If you're if you're estimating this could be in the 300 billion dollar area, you know, for based on, you know, just the exposure to these funds and obviously how that might play out. How do you think retail response to this? Do you think retail is going to come in like a banshee coming in on this with a lot of now what would be legitimized ETFs? How do you think they play? Again, it's I've been saying this for five years. My hashtag get off zero zero is the wrong number, right? This is a truly unique diversifying asset that must be in everyone's portfolio. Doesn't have to be your whole portfolio. I never said that. It should be at least one percent.

Anton, this is a fun episode because we have a former manager of mine, the head of Chronicle, a great guy from New Jersey, and worst of all, a Mets fan, join us for a really interesting conversation about Sim and Chronicle and EDR somehow. What did you think? I thought this was great. It felt like we did briefly hover over a precipice of discussing XDR. We did. In fact, we started there. We leapt off into space to start the episode. Yes. So I think I felt like we had this moment when the whole conversation could have fallen into the chasm of, oh, no, XDR, no, no, no, not again. But ended up, we ended up in a very useful place. Moreover, I would say that Chris, oh, I did say the guest name, but again, that's fine. Yes. That's good. I extracted some of the useful lessons that led him to the XDR discussion. So it's kind of interesting that XDR was mentioned in a very positive context. Yes. I think the other maybe most interesting tidbit in this episode listeners to listen for is the conversation around process versus tooling and where Chris sees the role of vendors in that equation. And so maybe with that teaser on what I thought was a shockingly interesting insight from Chris, let's turn things over to today's guest. Today we're joined by Chris Cord, senior director here at Google Cloud. Chris, it's been a wild time for you and me working at Google together. I'm delighted to finally have you on the show after countless jibes about the show. It's fantastic. It's hard first to believe that you're here, but harder still to believe we haven't done a proper Chronicle episode yet. So here we are to do a Chronicle episode. I want to start off with an easy question. Chronicle's not XDR, right? So what is it? Right. Yeah. The great XDR debate. I mean, we started this when I first started and Anton has definitely been a good foe in the debate. You did say good, right? You did say good, right? But listen, he said foe, not foiled. There's degrees here. Exactly. Anton has never been on the same side that I've been on. Yeah. I mean, look, I've always stated that XDR to me is a use case. I don't believe that XDR is some magical category where it's going to redefine the way we're doing security operations or anything to that degree. But I do think it's reflective of people's desire to want to have their SIM platforms do more than just log collection. Sure. Right? So in my point of view, the industry evolved to be just a log collection platform. Everything else was do it yourself. You had to build all of these dashboards and your own rules on top of it. And I think the gravity that people have at least started with XDR, and it seems to have teared off now, kind of began with this notion of, can you just give me more value in this thing I'm spending so much money on? It should provide me with more actual security value, outcome -oriented value. Is that what Chronicle is then? That's what Chronicle does. Our primarily strategy is about delivering quality outcomes through detection and response, built into a scalable data platform. And I think to me XDR is a use case that Chronicle can deliver, but ultimately we're fighting against the SIM vendors on a regular basis. So it's a SIM that delivers security outcomes that produce value because it's smarter than the other SIMs. Absolutely. Okay. Easy. So that was an easy question, right? Yeah. And so I guess the second one is kind of in the same ballpark, rightly. Roughly Tim occasionally makes fun of me for only using faint praise, like, yeah, I guess it's pretty good. That's actually an okay idea. That's one of his favorite things to say. That's actually an okay idea. Yes. I've said this several times on air. But ultimately I loved Chronicle so much that I left the safety of Gartner and joined it in 2019, right? So in that sense, and I think I've posted a very like excited awesome plus blog about like, oh my God, my dream has come true. I'm at Chronicle. So, so this was 2019, this is 2023. So since you joined the team, what is your, oh my God, it's such a happy place. It's the proudest thing I've done. Like what are you the most proud of shipping? Yeah. I mean like putting aside the love fist, you're okay with it. I was going to say, aside from shipping me out of his org chart, what are you most proud of shipping me? Right. Right. But putting aside like the acquisition stuff, which we'll touch on, you know, maybe later in this conversation, I think from a pure Chronicle feature perspective, you know, I joined the team in 2021, like mid 2021. And, you know, I had this firm vision, like I talked about just now of like Sims needed to do more than just simple blog collection and aggregation and dashboarding. And so we shipped a curated detection feature in early 2022, I think Q2 2022, which basically provided out of the box detections out of the box analytics and things that were curated and managed by our own Google cloud threat Intel team. And like, I, to me, that was a seminal moment for the product. Like it moved it from really being this like data platform that was just doing log collection and doing it well because we were very scalable, but really kind of started to deliver on this vision of having an outcome oriented tool. And we've been able to build on it ever since like, and so I was super proud that we were able to get that out the door when we did. I think that was a great launch and I really liked the degree to which it made you more opinionated about the data you were ingesting. But to add to this, funny enough, and this was like a case where I think we've pretty virtually argued a little bit because when we started doing curated detections, at least on the market inside, the perception was, wait a second, everything had canned detections and every SIM going back to 1998 would say, here, customer, here's a rule, bye. They're not really curated. They're kind of canned rules and customers developed a bit of a disdainful attitude about canned rules. Do they work? Do they not work? But curated detections in our case, we stand behind them. We give them to a customer and we almost, I think of them in my mind and that's when I flipped the switch towards loving them is that they're sort of guaranteed. They're sort of like, we say, do these work? If they don't work slightly, here's how to make them work. So unlike other teams having canned detections that are kind of more like samples or like, here, you tried, but the results outcomes are in your hands. In our case, we shipped something that we stand behind. Curated means they're going to work. You hit the nail on the head. That's the magic. That is legit magic. Most other SIMs, they're delivering a set of safe searches basically that they're giving you as templates and then you have to operate over those templates and they're not actually managing the effectiveness of those detections over the course of their lifecycle. That's the big difference for us is the fact that these things are managed from an effectiveness perspective. Again, the analogy I always like to use is how the EDR market evolved and how it went from being this forensic platform where you had to do a bunch of stuff yourself and then you had to maybe grab a bunch of saved queries from the vendor to being in this place that had a lot of out -of -the -box value, like detection value, and they actually kept tuning that over time with additional cloud oversight and managed defense oversight and IR engagements and that just made those detections that much better. That's the kind of experience that we have in Chronicle, which is, I agree with you, very game -changing over traditional SIMs. What I love about that story there is, listeners, I was a political science major and the story of how it became a PM we'll talk about on the AMA episode, but what I love about that is it presents an asymmetry where Chronicle gets better at detecting bad guys across its whole pool of users and then every user benefits from that. It's unlike a traditional SIM because you keep learning and getting better. I want to shift gears and speaking about catching bad guys, you were part of Google's second largest acquisition in history. How does it feel, first of all, to be number two to an acquisition that I would bet, one pure bonus most listeners couldn't name, and then now that we're a year into it, what's been a happy surprise about all of it and what are you looking forward to still with it? What is the biggest one? There's Motorola. Oh, yeah. It was when we purchased Motorola. Got it. That was actually more than twice the size of what you purchased. I think Mandarin is the happiest story, though. It's already very clear. It's very clear at this point. I don't think there's anything wrong with the Motorola acquisition. I just think it might have been forgotten in the sands of time. Well, that's a good tidbit. I didn't even think of that one. Because you're 5X bigger than YouTube by purchase size. Exactly. Yeah, and for 5X more important, clearly. I think, to me, it shows a lot of commitment in the space. As a security practitioner joining Google, when I did, there was obviously a lot of momentum and a lot of desire to get more serious about security, but it was still a very nascent business in 2021 when I joined and, in some ways, still very nascent business now in terms of its profile in the industry. But the desire for our organization to get serious about it was real. I felt it at the time that I joined, and I think the opportunity when Mandarin came along as an acquisition opportunity, that the fact that we were able to jump on it and we had so much support going up through the leadership chain was pretty shocking to me. So I think it was a great signal that we're serious about security and that we'll continue to be serious about security and that we're willing to invest in it pretty aggressively. We also got some decent products with it as well. Apart from, obviously, the world -class IR services, we got some decent products. My personal opinion is the reputational bump that we got immediately out of the gate has been game -changing. There's been so many different opportunities that we're in now with Chronicle, maybe not even with Mandiant standalone products, but with Chronicle. But we're in those opportunities specifically because of the Mandiant acquisition. Because number one, people say, oh, Google's serious about this. Number two, they have a higher degree of trust that all those detection capabilities that we just talked about are going to be way higher fidelity because now you're pulling in all of that advanced Intel and IR engagements that Mandiant is doing, and you're feeding those into the product to create value. And then they just have great relationships with CISOs. And so I think when you combine all of those things, it's created a huge amount of momentum for us in the business. And I think the products themselves, while we're in the process of integrating a lot of those in different parts of the portfolio, they do give us a lot of interesting functionality that we wouldn't have had otherwise. In fact, even merging ASM into the SOC, into the detection response function, to me is kind of interesting because it makes SOC look kind of to the left from the incident. To me, this is kind of, I mean, from all the Mandiant products, I felt like ASM, bringing ASM into the SOC vision is kind of a strong argument that we are unique. I mean, we're not like pretty unique. We aren't that unique by doing it. I agree. I agree. I think like, you know, we're referring to that as the addition of contexts, right? And so the more context you can bring into a log event, the better off you are. And making decisions and being proactive in terms of how you determine risk and not only ASM, but also security validation with Mandiant helps bring in and introduce that context, which I agree is a very unique point of view. So to sort of briefly go on a short tangent here, of course you are a senior product leader, but some people would say that security operations success at a company connects to how mature their processes are and of course what products they use. So what's your take on kind of the balance of tools versus practices at the company if I'm building a DNR team or SOC. Or refactoring. Or refactoring one. That's right. Right. Right. That's a good point. How should I think about buying the absolute best products, but keeping the mature practices or boosting the practices, but maybe keeping the products? Like what's the best route here? Don't say both. Both is the right answer though. Well, don't tell him what the right answer is. Chris, what's your answer? You're right. I might be a little biased, but I think that the emphasis on people needing to solve problems themselves through practices is a manifestation of our inability of delivering the right level of value in SIEM in particular or security operations. Hang on. Say that again. Say what you just said. The overemphasis that we're placing on like, hey, improve your overall security processes, include your manual kind of playbooks for how you handle certain types of events or incidents. All those types of things that we overemphasize is only there because SIEM products have not delivered on the type of value that they should be creating. So they are covering holes in broken products by trying to polish practice. This is actually - It's a good answer. Kind of profound. It's better than your answer. It's not profound. It's actually kind of profound. See, that's the Slavic phrase right there. That's what we were talking about. But that's a great answer and way better than I thought. I like that a lot. And so my point of view is like, look, our promise as vendors needs to be to make the products better so that people are better at doing their job. And again, I think, not to keep using this analogy, but Endpoint did that super well. I don't think anyone would have said like, hey, once you had just data collection and Endpoint, job done because everything else is process oriented. But instead, the ball had to keep moving forward in terms of making sure that we're stopping bad guys consistently, making sure that we're doing that with higher degrees of fidelity and expertise and capability and accuracy and all those types of things kept moving that market forward. And to me, we're on the early stages of SIEM doing the same thing. So SIEM is going to go through the same transformation and reputation that we had of AV, dirty disgusting product to EDR, cool useful product. We'll have that for SIEM. I think even beyond just AB to EDR, but AB to EDR to like what I would refer to as the Endpoint protection suite or platform. Like that iteration is the way SIEM is moving, right? So I think it's going from this kind of like checkbox compliance thing to, okay, collecting a bunch of forensic data. And then now I think hopefully to this outcome oriented security focused platform. So to me that the logic is that you would want, it's not like you want to make SIEM look like AV, but you want to focus on kind of like outcomes that you get right after you deploy the product. Not deploy the product and then start your journey that takes you through 14 months of hard work to a value, but you want something that you deploy the product and you see the outcomes soon without doing any hard labor. That's the short version of that. You should be able to get value immediately. Like as soon as I start ingesting event data, especially event data from high fidelity sources, immediately I should start getting some understanding. Is there anything indicative of an active breach? Is there any behavior that's going on that I should be aware of or alerted of that might be, you know, attacker driven behavior like these kind of things should be out of the box value. And it shouldn't require hiring a team of ex NSA guys to make it work. Absolutely. It should be easy process, not crazy process. Because if it does require a team of people from the NSA, then like zero chance that most organizations are going to be able to do it. Right. The fortune five will win and everybody else will suffer. That's not a good outcome for anyone. But for a lot of SIEM products, they're still stuck in the old mentality where they give you the tool and they give you some sample content and ultimately people and then give you some good luck, you know, charms to succeed. And even large, highly visible SIEM competitors are doing that. So in essence, we are doing something different, but many of the customers seem to be stuck in the, Oh, SIEM, yeah, I got to write my own rules because canned rules are probably bad. There's a lot of work. I can't handle it. How are we changing the minds? Like if somebody is trained on certain logs or changing that wants to be a SIEM or some other products, how are we changing their minds? How are we making them actually, if you get Chronicle, you're going to get results and you wouldn't have to suffer for 12 months or for 14 months to get the results. So what is the secret to change in their minds, if it makes sense? It's probably a little too philosophical, but I think it's a good question. I wanted to ask you slightly differently, which is how do you convince people they don't need to port over and invest in porting over 18 years worth of rules written in another language? To be honest, like this is the hardest part. Like if you're going to look at tactically when we are in the middle of trying to switch out incumbent vendors, the hardest part is convincing them that maybe a one for one, like for like type comparison is not necessarily what they should be doing. And then after even we've convinced them to switch, trying not to just simply port over all the old stuff. You know, I used to work in a virtual firewall business and like there was a joke where like no one ever wanted to touch a firewall rule that was in there because it's like a game of Jenga and no one ever wanted to pull anything out because you're concerned that whole thing is going to topple over. That's kind of the way people feel like they're sim rules. They may have a thousand of them, 2000 of them. They have no idea if they're valuable, but they refuse to want to touch them because if they try to cut them down at all, they're concerned they'll miss something. And so it is extremely hard to get them to just say, let's use this opportunity to slim down the rule set. The whole vendor is trying to do analytics of that, funny enough. Like there's a whole little segment of a market when people deploy tech to kind of like go through sim rules and see if they're good, which is amazing, right? People will pay money for it to actually have the tool do that. Sounds like somebody's buying a dowsing rod to me. That doesn't sound easy. No, it's based on real quote unquote machine learning. Okay. Okay. So back to dowsing rods. This is one area where I actually think Mandiant helps a lot, right? So Mandiant has a product called security validation that can be run like in a managed version or can be run in a product driven version. But that product does help people go through breach and attack simulations with real world examples of like, look, these are 10 or 12 different attack vectors. These are different types of threat actors. These are campaigns and you can run those simulations against your environment. You can see in my tools catching them are my sim tools like alerting on me or detecting these kind of events. And so we're, the plan right now is for us to use a lot of that breach and attack simulation to showcase, okay, if you care about these parts of the MITRE ATT &CK matrix, then we'll be able to validate that the rules that we have in place with Chronicle are able to catch them. That's really cool. So that product effectively turns somebody's organization in its current state into a bit of a cyber test range for their own stuff. That's a fancy way of saying it, but like that was the old VeriDIN stack that Mandiant acquired. So I remember it from the Gartner days and it's kind of impressive in terms of what they would simulate and how deep they would integrate to the detection stack. So it's genuinely cool and it genuinely delivers that type of insight about are your detections any good or are you only pretending you're collecting and then pretending you're detecting. And then we want to keep using that over time. This goes into the context thing, like not only you want to do that at a point in time, but if we can continuously validate and then let's say we see that, okay, this portion of your environment is susceptible to ransomware or some other attack vector, we can adjust the alerting risk score associated with those events or we can highlight certain areas because the events should matter more because we know that you're susceptible to an attack. So that's kind of the context part, which Peter pointed out before, I think are things that only we're doing really versus any other event. That's really interesting. I want to switch gears one more time before we get to our traditional closing questions. We have a lot of people listening to the show who are interested in careers in security, interested in careers in security PM. You've been doing PM for security products for a long time, not to call you old. You've been called worse things by fancier people than me lately. What advice do you have for people who are thinking about security PM as a path? Well, yeah, I mean, I think security is one of those tough areas to break in from a product perspective, mostly because the domain knowledge is not super relevant to a lot of folks, meaning that it's, you know, you can put yourself in the shoes of a, of a user of a product that's very open and visible in many cases. I can imagine using the Uber app, like if you want to be, you know, a PM in maps or a PM in Gmail, it's like in that context, you're at least a user on a regular basis and it's much easier for to put your mind into it. I think security is harder, right? Because it's even a step removed from traditional it. And most people don't have that necessarily that depth of knowledge to be able to be a domain expert. Personally, I think a lot of people can get a ton of value at being tier one analysts right out of the gate. Right. And so there are so many organizations that I know that are looking for younger talent, people coming into organizations to act as tier one analysts and the amount of information that you can gather about the domain and about the problem is huge. You know, for people that are still in school, like there's a number of schools that are now focused on cybersecurity programs in school, like Carnegie Mellon has been kind of the forefront of having a cyber shop or a cyber program in school. Then absent of that, like sometimes people can just basically switch domains and just spend the time and focus and energy on learning some of the individuality of security, but just bring really good PM discipline to the, to the equation. Like I think one thing that security in general hasn't done well is we haven't been really good at actually building products with simplicity, right? And so like, under statement of the episode, other disciplines are good at that. And so if you can bring that kind of discipline into security, even as a relative novice in the domain, you might actually be better off. We might bring some beginners versus someone who's done it for years. Usually at the very end of the episode, we ask two questions. Any give the audience one tip in this case on improving security operations would assume and give us some recommended reading. And of course it's fine to say Chronicle website or whatever else. And it's not okay to say Anton's blog. And please don't say, but don't say anything about New York Mets because that's too depressing right now. Yeah. That's way too depressing. Yeah. I recommended reading. I mean like, you know, I think there's a number of SIM books out there, right? Like if you really wanted to go deeper into how SIMs operate, like I think there's one called the infosec playbook, right? Which kind of walks you through how you operate and manage a SIM or our SOC, sorry. And kind of build a security operations playbook. Yeah. There's a number of really good books about malware in general. Like I think I forget the root kid book, but it's like the root kid Bible or something like that that I read early on in my career, which is another good one. Listeners just so you know, nothing from Chris's early career is still technologically relevant. Exactly. Yeah. So that might be that. That might be that. Yeah. I think like any type of those kind of protect practitioner level books that you can read about, like how people operate in the SOC would be great starting points. And then one tip to improve security operations outcomes, maybe. In general, like as a user? Yeah. As somebody operationally responsible. Or as a director. Or as a CISO. Whatever. Yeah. I mean, whatever you're feeling. I think in most cases, people don't put enough emphasis on trying to build proactive controls in the right spots. And so like, this is an area where laziness is somewhat taken over to a certain degree. And we know that there's good best practices out there around zero trust around, you know, locking down policies and procedures more so than what we have done. And we've just been too lazy to deliver that. And so we default into a, you know, operational detection and response mode versus trying to be more proactive in terms of how we control things. And so I would say that lean in a little bit more into having the right protective controls in place from the ground up. Well, Chris, I think that's a surprisingly left -leaning answer for somebody who builds a SIM product. I really like that it was not a self -serving answer. So Chris, thank you so much for joining us today. It's my pleasure. Thank you both. And now we are at time. Thank you very much for listening, and of course for subscribing.

And if you want to pop off for a quick one yourself later on, we can always cover for you in return. Yes, thanks very much. I suppose we don't actually need him there for the whole time. Excellent. So if you'd just like to come over here and lie down. What? Oh yes, it's very simple. My client mister dent says he will stop lying here in the mod on the sole condition you take over from him. What are you talking about? Shh. Sorry. You want me to come and lie down there? Yes. In front of the bulldozer. Yes. Instead of mister dent. Yes. In the mud in, as you say, the mud. In return for which you will take mister dent with you down to the pub. Yes. Promise. Promise. Come on off the get up, let the man lie down. Oh, and no sneaking knocking mister dense house down while he's away. All right? What? The slightest thought hadn't even begun to speculate about the merest possibility of crossing my mind. I think we can trust him myself by trusting to the end of the earth. Yes, but how far is that? About 32 minutes away. Come on, I need a drink. How are they dressed to go to the park? By drink, Ford prefect meant alcohol. The inside the media Galactica describes alcohol as a colorless volatile liquid formed by the fermentation of sugars and also notes its intoxicating effects on certain carbon based life forms. The hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy also mentions alcohol. It says that the best drink in existence is the pan galactic gargle blaster. The effect of which is like having your brain smashed out with a slice of lemon wrapped around a large golden brick. The guide also tells you on which planet the best pan galactic gargle blasters are mixed, how much you can expect to pay for one and what voluntary organizations exist to help you rehabilitate. The man who invented this mind pummeling drink also invented the wisest remark ever made, which was this. Never drink more than two pan galactic gargle blasters unless you wear a 30 ton mega elephant with bronchial pneumonia. His name is Zeke pod people rocks and we shall learn more of his wisdom later..

God yeah yeah I was heavily into it. Spent a ton of money sold my collection for a ton of money and got out and haven't played a single game sense but the funny thing is is if i had kept it it would be worth like ten times as much of what i sold it for. Now don't you. Don't you'll drive yourself nuts dude but i definitely got out of hand on that. I was buying boxes of cards at a time. And i don't know if you guys remember when i worked at games paradise. That was the time when i ordered a case of magic cards. Yep all for myself face. Yeah we remember finding you naked in the living room making magic card angels. that's not show You know to circle back around the comic books that that was my main hobby for most of my junior high through college. And when i when. I came to chicago to go to college with you guys Within the first year my freshman year.

Bas thing really had. There was worth anything so i sold. It made a small profit. But if i would have kept it it would be worth what probably i didn't even know how much it's worth these days. But i'll hell of a lot more than i sold for at least twenty dollars and i hate that. I sold it. I really really. It's one of my biggest regrets in life. If if i have any regrets..

"Some weird moments like when The episode. I was trying to think of was in season to where they discover that they discover that lex luther has cancer from handling cr- kryptonite so much and have given him six months to live. It's interesting twist. yeah it was. It was kind of weird. It was injustice for all. So yeah he's terminally ill. So he gets a teams up with the now again. B-list villain the ultra. Humanite is who. I was trying to remember earlier. Is that gorilla white grill instead of guerrilla. Grod we've got the big brain And his plans to kill superman because he blames him for him having kryptonite poisoning so he enlists chitra tara. the cheetah couple of the other other other heroes are villains. Come in but it's kind of funny because like they've got batman tied up in the basement and he's got these shackles on this laser beam around and keeps the martian manhunter from Seeing him and all that stuff going on so he's got solomon grundy and the ultra human humanite guarding him and he pulls the. Hey salomon how much are you getting paid to do this. I bet you're not getting paid as much as you know this guy here. And ultra human is going of course. He's getting paid less than me. Look at me. i'm a genius. And they get into a fight and he almost breaks out that way and then he actually straight up seduces cheetah were. They're making out by the time. The next person comes down for their shifts. Watch batman i've ever gonna say seduce salman crunchy.

Show it's like. They wanted to do a show aimed at adults. But i don't think early two thousands like now. There is more than the lion share of animated shows based for adults nowadays. I don't think two thousand was really the window for it all now. You've got adult. Animated superhero shows like invincible. That we've discussed on several occasions recently. Yeah and this debuted on cartoon network's they also had to kinda do kind of watch because this was already on it wasn't like on. Hbo or something like that.

"We have a container that we keep on our counter with butter constantly are butter dishes always on the counter and like i if the edges of it a guy go a little bit flavor lists you just throw that bit out and use the good stuff like aging a stake in butter on the counter. And i'm sure a lot of people are horrified right now. But i like i was probably. I don't know thirty four. Before i knew this that you could do that and honestly you used to do that with milk. It wasn't the pasteurization homogenization. That where you didn't have to shake it anymore. That's the process that makes go bad and require refrigeration. Here's a question you go out to a restaurant with your family. Go to breakfast place. How many of you spend time drinking those little cremers a little kid. I would occasionally do that. Yes there's only two things to do with them either. Made them into a pyramid. Are you drinking or could also poke a hole in the top and squeeze them was just about to say what i used to do you. Could you could poke holes at him and then squeezer minute looks like a cow getting you can weaponize them mayes me stupid butter tricks. Did we ever discover where that stream of butter went but yeah shot over my left shoulder around the table behind us. Still funny. it's funny. I'm sure they were not as amused at the other thing that you do is when i was in school and they did you ever have the thing with you in class. Like oh hey dairy and they would bring out a thing of whole milk or a thing of like half and half are a heavy cream and you'd it would be like an a mason jar and the teacher would start shaking it in like. Oh here you take it. New shake shake in Twenty kids in the classroom acid around every shakes at surfing and by the time it gets back to the teachers. They'd be like oh. Hey now it's butter. Yes this is. Our winters made if nap way there and someone who drank the jar. This jars dante dude freshman. Butter is amazing. Early is haven't had a very often but that's a couple of times i've had is really. It's so good it's like but it is like budha. I can remember when we first started to go back onto cheese. We first started to get the craft. They looked like half a cheese wheel. There were that like half circle. I of cheddar and then of colby. Jack like ninety. Joe no. I'm talking trying to determine what size it was like. A coffee can lid size but like half a half circle. Oh and they were kind of like and they were wrapped in tin foil. In little little eight and you'd peel them back a little wedge of no no no. This is much bigger. Like i said like a full sized coffee can but just like half. The lid goes half a circle and it was just packaged. Now you'd get them in their square because it's not insane but back in the eighties. They used to be packaged as though they were half of cheese wheel. And yeah that was. Craft sold their What we refer referred was blocked cheese today Is there a final answer. Is there a cheese from then that you refuse to eat and if there is a cheese from then that was your favorite. Well i hope you. Jack probably was my favorite from them. Jack jack kobe jack. Who loves ya baby. Kojak jackie's kojak cheese got a lollipop in every package..

"Based on what's going on with the respective families Sarah has done the turkey at least twice Trying to think of where we work. Sarah has done the turkey. Guess in the jury. Pretty sure where. We're living in hyde park on the south side of chicago. We had to do one thanksgiving pretty much. Just the two of us i. I might have been working retail at the time so there wasn't a whole lot of time to go to like might ads place and her family at that. Point was living in indiana. So i think we had to do that once but we usually contribute something to the menu wherever we go whether that's a dessert or aside and frequently I found our tastes have changed. I'm gonna bail. Mike out a little bit on his adding weird stuff Sweet potatoes apples are not weird. They are when they're in the sweet potatoes. How about bananas. Because i got this idea you have my attention got this recipe from an alton brown show And i saw john show yes they do kind of look like you mentioned where you do mashed bananas with the sweet and the marshmallows and some walnuts and i did that as a side one year so that was kind of interesting. The banana was a little overpowering. Which is why. I only did it once. But it was an interesting combination. You're giving him no crap out bananas no you know. They lay at least at least consistency. Wise would go with sweet potatoes and bananas and thanksgiving i had. They had apple. They had sweet potatoes no way. We're going for historically accurate menu. Were just talking about a good menu. Yeah that'd be tested. We're going historically accurate. Let's get some. ill see. You should have covered your with the name of a famous chef. Mike that's my takeaway. Here he'd like to. He told me to put apple validated. I'll go with it now. you know. Now we're good other side dish who the carcass. Nobody thinks dexter is the only one you can get that the other side dish that i have mastered over the years and made a part of Thanksgiving has been collard. Greens actually oh. Yeah depending on where you are in the country. The wasn't a tradition for thanksgiving growing up. But as i've become an adult has become a holiday.

I think it was a flip remark but just coming out of her mouth was weird. Hang the carcasses wants you joel. She hid jewish hoping to pull yorkie. That's not what's coming out of her mouth the issue it's going. I was going to see who leave. You're going to carry that one out. You know you know what the name of his eyes autobiographies dick tieman in your face and funny by the way. Did anybody notice that the kids in this movie were all like from an eighties. New wave band. Oh the hair. Yeah yeah yeah. Eagles running around. I thought it was fun. Yeah and and and what was what was the deal with needing to make the grim sympathetic but having an utterly unsympathetic other villain character and the mare. Because i didn't. I didn't understand why they i mean i don't. It almost took cast jeffrey tambor. And they're like well we gotta do something with him. Let's create this character for him. You know i get you know what the thing is. Though what jeffrey tambor was given he did a great job i love. I love him and everything he does. Yeah everything i mean. It's i mean he is. His character was exactly what it was supposed to be. He was funny you know he was. You know with Clint howard which funny do you know what clint howard characters name was finally did i. We're making funnily. Yeah except funny too. Funny a clint. Clint howard's characters name was hubris. Oh edge that interesting. yeah so you know. There's a little bit of cleverness in there. But i think the takeaway from the movie is that you're supposed to be nice to anyone even if they're grumpy unless mayor. Because fuck that guy government back that was the thing is like everyone's giving the grinch the benefit of the doubt but you get to the end of the movie and the mayor's just like it's like well what about him. He's not really doing anything any worse than what the grinch did well did. The town is like well. We need a new grinch. I guess what just turn against this asshole. Yeah and cindy lou who sticking up for him as soon as the grinches except that she she just turned her guns around like right. Now you got work on you. Listen up you all right.
