State lawmakers want children to fill labor shortages, even in bars and on school nights
"Lawmakers in several states are pushing legislation that would let miners work in more hazardous occupations and longer hours. Efforts to roll back labor rules are largely led by Republican lawmakers to address worker shortages and in some cases they run afoul of federal regulations. The Ohio legislature is on track to pass a bill to allow 14 and 15 year olds to work until 9 p.m. on school nights with their parents permission. I will Republican governor Kim Reynolds signed a law last year to allow 16 and 17 year olds to work unsupervised in child care centers earlier this month a state legislature approved a bill to allow teens 16 and 17 to serve alcohol and restaurants, Republicans dropped provisions from a version of the bill that would have allowed children 14 and 15 to work in dangerous fields like mining, logging and meat packing.

Russia's Wagner boss says more than 20,000 of his troops died in Bakhmut battle
"The fact that militia, which is aiding Russia wage war on Ukraine. Says thousands have lost their lives. Wagner's chief says his false has lost more than 20,000 soldiers in the drawn out battle for bakhmut, with about 20% of the 50,000 Russian convicts he recruited to fight in the 15 month war dying in the eastern Ukrainian city.

Binance Accused of Co-Mingling Customer Funds With Company Revenue
"Hello friends. Well, this morning as I was prepping the show, news broke from Reuters. Walter Bloomberg on Twitter said, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance co -mingled customer funds with company revenue in 2020 and 2021. In breach of U .S. financial rules that require customer money to be keep separate, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters. So let's go through this, let's try to get a sense of how serious this is, let's see if there is another Sam -type situation on our hands. First, let's talk the accusation. Well, it's pretty much right there in the headline, Binance co -mingling customer funds with company revenue in 2020 and 2021, the sourcing, three sources familiar with the matter and Reuters, but let's try to get a few more details. From the Reuters piece, quote, one of the sources, a person with direct knowledge of Binance Group's finances, said the sums ran into billions of dollars and co -mingling happened almost daily in accounts the exchange held at U .S. lender Silvergate Bank. Reuters couldn't independently verify the figures or the frequency, but the news agency reviewed a bank record showing that on February 10th, 2021, Binance mixed $20 million from a corporate account with $15 million from an account that received customer money. Reuters found no evidence that Binance client monies were lost or taken. So there's a bunch that's important here. One is that Reuters couldn't verify the figures in total and that they really only had this one particular bank record showing a mixing. Now, what did Binance say? Well, in a statement to Reuters, they obviously denied this. Spokesperson Brad Jaff said, these accounts were not used to accept user deposits. They were used to facilitate user purchases. There was no co -mingling at any time because these are 100 % corporate accounts. Reuters goes on.

Paul Tudor Jones Says Bitcoin Has a 'Real Problem' in the U.S.
"Going to talk about Paul Tudor Jones. He was kind of one of those early Bitcoin bulls from the world of traditional finance back in 2021. Now he has some fresh comments on Bitcoin in the U.S. facing regulatory headwinds and quote real problems given the climate in D.C.. We're going to talk about that and more. He also made some comments about the macroeconomic picture, given that he thinks that the fed is going to stop all those interest rate hikes that have been suppressing activity and markets, but we'll talk to that second. All right, the Bitcoin comment. I have a thought, but I want to throw it to Wendy on this one. What do you think, PT was one of those initial profits of the chat file world who got into Bitcoin not long ago? What do you think about these latest comments? I don't think anybody is a profit when it comes to crypto and Bitcoin. I mean, people, when they started using Bitcoin originally, like way, way back in the day, it was meant to make secure private transactions online for specific things. So and things have evolved the narrative continues to change. But I do like to see some guys from traditional finance coming into the space. I don't trust them as far as I can throw them. And I do agree with a lot of his thoughts that crypto is going to surge due to the current economic state, especially in the United States of America. And when I say surge, you guys, I'm not saying it's going to happen overnight. I'm not saying it's going to happen now. I am simply saying it takes time. But number should potentially go up. I mean, I got a counter take on this one. I mean, this kind of commentary kind of puts him in opposition to prominent Bitcoin maxis such as Michael saylor, who have been saying that, hey, the regulatory stance in the U.S. toward Bitcoin specifically has actually been favorable through this crackdown, right? You have SEC chair Gary gensler saying, hey, Bitcoin. It's the one true commodity. It doesn't have an issuer. It's decentralized enough relative to Ethereum and others out there in the market, which may be more securities like. So I think that this kind of puts him in opposition to what, in my opinion, may be the more informed take relative to the regulatory conversations going on in D.C. right now.

"Saying it. Other family members who I think like it or not, considerably failed John, are skip and pat straighter. Regardless of their reasons why, they hid critical evidence and information from law enforcement investigators. In doing so, they thwarted the police's ability to investigate the crime scene, unmanipulated. The choices skip and pat made on the day John died and in the days after, crippled the authorities ability to do their job in some ways. As adults, the fact that they did not even attempt lifesaving measures on John when they found him face down in the water was a lack of action, I'm not sure I'll ever be able to understand or reconcile in my mind. The one person that I think didn't fail John was his best friend, Patrick scanner. A voice you've heard throughout this entire series. Patrick spoke with police willingly, every time they asked, he never wavered on his story, and he's been the only person to not run and hide when asked to discuss the intimate details of this case. He sat down with me, a total stranger, nearly 20 years after finding his friend dead in the water, and he didn't hold back. I believe Patrick sincerely wants to know what happened to John and is upset. He's never gotten clear answers. He genuinely still misses his best friend, and you can hear it in the way he talks about John. I would love for him to be able to meet my wife, meet my daughter. I don't have a lot of close friends and never have. He was one of my close friends. It would be nice to have someone like him, you know, I've got those things that come with. I don't want to leave this story open ended, but sometimes that's just the nature of this line of work. There's not a pretty bow to tie up everything with a happy ending. I'll tell you, though, that I feel this case is far from over, or at least there's a bit of light that I think is coming from a cracked door that will just take a bit of pushing to swing wide open. And possibly result in some big changes. Just a few months ago, doctor Russell Vega called Helen Hough. They spoke for half an hour, and afterwards, she called me. She said that Vega told her he was not an expert in the way firearms function. He solely depended on law enforcement's information when he changed John's manner of death in 2017. He said he didn't have enough expertise to know if the information that he was given was wrong. He specifically said that he did not consider John's death to be a true accident. He said he actually leans more toward it not being an accident. However, based on the info he got, he felt there was enough doubt raised that he changed the death certificate. He told Helen that he couldn't and wouldn't swear in court to John's death being a result of an accident. But what he needs is more information. He said he had no problem with FDL getting involved again if they chose to. He also said he'd be happy to speak with Ruger firearms as well. Whatever it took to give him cause to evaluate the case for a second time. Until he's provided new credible information from an official law enforcement source that contradicts what he was given in 2017, Vega unfortunately just won't be able to do anything with the case. So here's where I think you the listeners can help. If you believe that the criminal investigation into John's death needs to be reopened, then right, call, email, snail mail to Florida department of law enforcement's headquarters. You can also contact their Sebring Florida office, which is the office that handled John's case in the very beginning. You should also contact de Soto county sheriff's office. You can also reach out directly to the district 12 medical examiner's office in Sarasota. Contact information for all of those agencies is in the show notes and on our website, counterclock podcast dot com. This July is the 19th anniversary of John's death. If he were still here, he'd be 36 years old by now. Who knows? Maybe he'd have opened up that general store, he told his mom about. Maybe he'd have some kids. A family life better than his own. Maybe he'd be a business owner. Nobody will ever know what would have been. But he's not here. He never made it out of that pasture in July of 2003. The same land that to this day is heavily fenced and barbed wired off from visitors. After all the work I've put into investigating this case, I've realized that my initial assessment about all that security on the southeast hansel property might have been wrong. I don't think the barriers in signage are about keeping people out. I think they're there to keep something in. Something that may explain who took John wells future. Something that can only be uncovered by reexamining the past. I hope you all enjoyed listening to this season of counter clock and take action to contact the entities I told you about.

"Writer and Patrick skinner. Upon completion of their interviews, their testimony was consistent with their original stories. I know memories fallible. Did you speak to him on the phone? I think so. What was his name? His name is detective James curdy. James curdy. I'm just out of county sheriff's office. I feel like my wife would know about that too because we were together in May, May of 2016. So that was a before I moved up here. Were you still in Arcadia? I was still in Arcadia. Do you ever remember a detective coming by, reinvestigating this case? I'm drawing a blank. If it was a quick phone call, I feel like I would remember now, just to be clear, I'm not saying James curdy lied in his report about interviewing Patrick. Maybe he did interview him, but I can't find the paper trail that proves that. The fact that Patrick doesn't even recognize James name or speaking with him at all, I think is devastating to the credibility of de Soto county's investigative process in 2016. And ultimately, the entire document James curtie submitted. I'm not here to cast judgment or say what's right or what's wrong, but this glaring discrepancy speaks volumes. I don't know why dcso has moved on from this case with no questions asked. I mentioned in the last episode that their motivation just being that they wanted to get an open homicide case off their books, just doesn't seem like a realistic reason to me. I mean, they still have plenty of unsolved murders in their jurisdiction. Some even date back further than John's. They've got open ended murder cases as far back as the 1980s on their roster. So why clear enclose John's case and not take any credit for it? Again, I think it comes down to a question of confidence. I would argue that the reason we are where we are is because mistakes were made and compounded, and perhaps covered up. Finding a way to conclude my investigation and really wrap my mind around this story has been tough. It's been emotionally draining. But I think where I've ultimately landed is that I believe John was murdered. If you're not convinced of that by now, that's fine. Maybe I'm in the minority here. But regardless of which conclusion you've come to, one thing I know for sure is that a lot of the people who knew John during the 17 years he was alive and the people tasked with finding out how he was killed failed him. For better or for worse, his family's nonstop infighting and their inability to get him to help he might have needed to deal with the behavioral and emotional problems he had, heard him. From everything I've learned about John, from the moment he was born, he was denied a chance at healthy, loving relationships that would have benefited him. And maybe even changed the course of his life. He was a young man with a big imagination and dreams. He liked animals. He liked the outdoors. You know, he talked about going to the coast guard. When he was little, it was so weird, he said, one day he wanted to own a general store, just sell everything, and I asked him, and I said, well, what's it going to be the name of that? He's just white cherries. I said, what? Yeah, white cherries. Don't sell lanterns and pickles and you start even weird stuff. I thought, well, that's good. John's actual family may have been scattered in tattered, but his close friends, people like Patrick skinner, considered him family, and still would, if he was around. I think we would have definitely still been friends. I imagine he would have kids by now..

"As I was walking and shoving my notebook laptop and recording equipment into my bag, a man came right up alongside me. Hello. It was doctor Russell Vega. Unfortunately, in the commotion of the moment with the fire alarm blaring, people brushing past me and me trying to juggle a bunch of stuff in my hands. My recorder stopped recording. I don't know if I hit a button or what, but either way, I wasn't able to capture my brief face to face interaction with doctor Russell Vega, as we were walking out. For about two minutes, we spoke in the corridor right outside the ballroom amidst clusters of attendees and the alarm still echoing through the building. Vega's first words to me were that he did not appreciate me ambushing him, and that he'd be happy to sit down and talk about the John wells case any time. He gave me his business card with his direct contact information on it and said I could reach out to him for a formal interview and he would gladly talk things through with me. I told him I'd had no intention of ambushing him, but felt that speaking at the meeting was necessary considering all the information I'd brought up and the fact that up until that point I'd only gotten minimal cooperation from his office. We agreed I'd reach out and could go from there. Then we both left in opposite directions. A few hours later, when I returned home from Orlando, I sent doctor Vega an email requesting an interview. The next day, he replied, saying, quote, unfortunately, I now understand from speaking with staff at the medical examiner's commission that you filed a formal complaint against me on Tuesday, August 3rd, the day prior to the meeting. Accordingly, I will not be able to speak with you about the case, nor can I have any further correspondence with you until that issue is resolved. This email frustrated me for one big reason. I had specifically asked Chad Lucas when we spoke prior to the MEC's meeting, whether or not my request to the board would be considered an official complaint against doctor Vega. I had made it clear that I did not want to blast Vega in a formal capacity. I simply wanted to bring my concerns to the attention of the MEC board. Over the phone and via email, Chad had assured me that what I'd submitted for public comment would not qualify as an official complaint. But sometime between our conversation on the afternoon of August 3rd and the morning of August 4th that had changed. When I expressed my disappointment about the mix up to doctor Vega and chat Lucas, Chad's response suggested that the only way to remedy the situation was for me to officially withdraw what I had submitted. It felt like a trap, and I wasn't going to do it. I informed the MEC that despite the unfortunate mess they made by categorizing my request as an official complaint, I wasn't going to take back what I'd said or asked of them. If Vega wanted to talk with me, my door was always open, and that's where we left it. Until October 22nd, 2021, almost three months after the quarterly meeting. The Florida MEC sent me an official letter informing me that they'd found no probable cause to pursue my request. The full letter is available on our website if you want to read it. The two big things they addressed were one that the MEC board believes doctor Vega's amendment to John wells death certificate was justified. Since it came after a thorough review of materials from the original death investigation and law enforcement investigations as well as the report provided by bevel gardener and associates. And two, under Florida law, doctor Vega has the ability to review historical cases and provide professional medical opinions without the consent of previous medical examiners who worked on a case. In other words, Vega didn't have to consult doctor Anderson before changing John's manner of death from homicide to undetermined. What the letter did not address in any shape or form was why there were so many undetermined manner of death rulings by the 12th district Emmy's office in 2017. Like, it's just completely absent from the board's response letter. I don't know if they intentionally chose not to look into this or what, but as far as I can tell, it's not going to be addressed, which I feel is a big problem. If the MEC, the very entity that defines itself as being charged with establishing uniform standards of excellence in statewide medical examiner's services and conducting administrative investigations, isn't going to look into that anomaly, then who is. After receiving the letter, I reached out to doctor Vega one more time requesting an interview, but I never got a response. I hope that if he hears this show, he'll change his mind. I think it would be really important for everyone to hear his side of things. Non responses have been a consistent theme with folks in this story. DeSoto county sheriff's office won't talk, Vega won't, and of course, there's pat straighter who won't talk either. It's disheartening, but in the end, that's how it goes sometimes. But if everyone I just mentioned, the sheriff's office in DeSoto county silence has troubled me the most. If John's case is technically labeled as closed or cleared in their book. Then why not speak about it? Explain the conclusion you came to, so there's no lingering doubt just hanging out there. After thinking about that for a long time, I can only reckon in my mind one reason why they're silence has gone on for so long. And that's because maybe they're just not confident in James Kirby's investigative findings from 2017. And now it's kind of past the point of no return. Maybe they have doubts about what the truth really is. The reason I say this is because when you read through James's 2017 final report, it just feels very surface level. On top of that, I found something in his report that calls into question the integrity of the entire thing. On page three of the document, James wrote, quote, follow up. On May 24th, 2016, I re interviewed Patricia strader and Patrick skinner. Upon completion of their interviews, their testimony was consistent with their original accounts. The problem with that statement is that Patrick skinner has no memory of that interview taking place, like, at all. Probably around O 7 was the last call I think I got from Kurt. I have this report from the cold case guy who closed it in the so this is the detective report hit closed the case in 2017 and spent the 2017 and so he goes through like your old statements. Yeah. So detective kurdi says on 5 24 16, I re interviewed Patricia strutter and Patrick skinner. A Planck completion of their interviews their testimony was consistent with their original accounts. Were you not interested in 2016? May of 2016 5 24 16, I detective kirdi re interviewed past.

"Appreciate it. Hello everyone. My name is Delia dean bra and I'm an investigative journalist for audio check podcast network. For the last several months, I've been investigating the July 2003 death of a 17 year old man named John wells who died from a gunshot wound and drowning in Arcadia, Florida. On July 9th, 2003, John's death was ruled a homicide by doctor William Anderson of the district 12 medical examiner's office. Doctor Anderson is now in private practice, but at the time was employed by the 12th district. Two weeks after doctor Anderson concluded his initial findings, the 12th district Emmy's office requested a second position named doctor Daniel Spitz to consult on the case and conduct a second autopsy. Doctor smith's findings were the same as doctor Anderson's that John wells died as a result of being shot by another with a manner of death as homicide. 14 years later, in February of 2017, doctor Russell Vega, who is the current chief of the 12th district Emmy's office, met with de Soto county law enforcement investigators and agreed to review the case and reconsider John wells manner of death. On March 15th, 2017, doctor Vega amended the manner of death on John wells autopsy and his death certificate and changed it from being a homicide to undetermined, thus allowing law enforcement to close the criminal investigation into John's death. I have provided supporting public documents to Chad Lucas and the board on this matter, which includes doctor Vega's two page explanation of why he changed John's manner of death, despite expressing that he had doubts the victims wound trajectory and likely immediate incapacitation matched the theory that law enforcement could presented. Doctor William Anderson and doctor Daniel Spitz have stated on record that neither of them was contacted by doctor Vega prior to doctor Vega filing his amendment on the autopsy. Both physicians feel their input would have been helpful and necessary in order for doctor Vega to reasonably change the manner of death in this case. I am requesting Sammy C evaluate doctor Vegas actions and his autopsy addendum and determine if all Florida statutes were followed. Lastly, please consider this data taken directly from the MEC's annual workload reports dating back to 2003. On average, in the last 18 years, the number of deaths ruled as homicides by the district 12 medical examiner's office have been consistent between 35 and 40 homicides per year. In all of those years, with the exception of one year, the number of deaths ruled as undetermined average between 5 and 8. So significantly less undetermined deaths in homicides in that region. In 2017, the same year that the 12th district changed John wells manner of death from homicide to undetermined. That office ruled 17 deaths as undetermined. The highest number of undetermined death rule wings than any year prior. I would like the MEC to evaluate its own data and figure out why this anomaly occurred in the 12th district in 2017 and request that doctor Vega and his staff provide a reasonable explanation. As I speak before you today, I am four months pregnant with my first child. I hope that my child would live to see beyond their 17th birthday, which was not a luxury afforded to John wells. For the sake of surviving family and a general public, please consider this request an information and pursue it. Thank you. As I walked away from the podium, the room got quiet. I think everyone was digesting what I just laid out. Iconic glimpse of doctor Vega in one of his assistant Emmys near the back of the room, and knew that everything I just said had landed on them with a lot of weight. To be fair, though, I'd requested to speak with doctor Vega multiple times before that point, and I was also still waiting on his staff to fulfill public records requests. So it's not like there wasn't fair warning and due diligence on my part. By the time I sat back down in my seat, the chairman had quickly gotten things moving along again. And the next public commenter spoke for, I'm not kidding, 20 minutes. So yeah, that whole you only have 5 minutes thing, how to loose enforcement policy, I guess. The lady that spoke after me went well over her allotted time, but she did end up getting cut off. Not by the board, but by a really abrupt interruption. Somewhere in the hotel, someone had pulled a fire alarm. In a matter of seconds, the MEC meeting adjourned, and everyone started quickly scurrying from the ballroom. Can.

"Every one of them came from various career fields, two medical examiners, a state attorney, a public defender, a sheriff, a funeral home director, another lawyer, and a county commissioner. Some of the seats were filled, some of them were vacant, but they were an assorted bunch for sure. After the members introduced themselves, everyone else in the room stood up one by one and said their names and titles too, which I'll be honest was really awkward considering there were like 50 or 60 people in attendance. Not wanting to be the only one who stayed silent, I didn't hesitate when it got to me. Investigative journalist. If up until that point, anyone had any doubt about why I was there. It became clear in that moment. I got some head turns and leaning over looks, but whatever, I'm used to it. After a few more people introduced themselves, I heard a man's voice from several rows behind me, say that he was doctor Russell Vega, the chief medical examiner of the 12th district. When I heard his voice, I felt my heart jump a little bit in my chest because this was the guy I'd be speaking about during my 5 minutes in public comment, and he was sitting just a few seats away from me. For the next 45 minutes,.

"As best as we can when we come back in a few weeks with a bonus episode. But for now, here's episode 15 serious. On Wednesday, August 4th, 2021, the Florida medical examiner's commission met in person. A rarity considering the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on in person gatherings. The meeting marked the commission's official third quarter board meeting, and it was open to the public. It took place inside a grand ballroom at the Waldorf Astoria resort in Orlando, Florida. Yep, right in the heart of the happiest place on earth. Disney World. Which I have to say was kind of ironic considering the room was crowded with dozens of medical examiners and FDLE agents who are employed in probably the most unhappy line of work. Anyway, I was the only journalist in attendance, and just one of three people who'd signed up to speak during the public comment. I could tell from the moment I entered the ballroom, I stood out. Based on the conversations and idle chat are going on around me, it felt like everyone knew each other, and the 9 board members who were lingering around their chairs arranged in a panel lined up at the front of the room. All gave me glancing looks as if to say, who's that? And why does she have a recorder? I'd be willing to bet money that this group had probably never had a reporter show up to one of their quarterly meetings. Let alone an investigative journalist working on a podcast. Two days earlier, I'd emailed and spoken on the phone with a man named Chad Lucas, who coordinates the MEC's quarterly meetings. I told Chad that I would be using my 5 minutes during public comment to request that the board review the actions of doctor Russell Vega in the John wells case. I'd also be requesting the board get to the bottom of why the 12th district had such an unusually large number of undetermined death rulings in 2017. Chad communicated my information to the board members prior to the meeting and supplied them with all of the documents on the case that I'd sent in an organized packet. Write at 10 o'clock in the morning, the chairman.

"Indeed, and I would have thought that in a world of global Britain, when the British prime minister is trying to position the United Kingdom as world beating as we are being reminded every single day in the domestic press, there is no sense of the United Kingdom's global position on this conflict, is that it seems very much like an inward facing article. Yes, I'm going to I suppose that's partly this is obviously this is partly an article aimed at Daily Telegraph readers and who are probably worried about the prices of their petrol and the price of their heating. But interesting in the front page news article, they do point out another audience for this, which is that the prime minister is due to go off to the Middle East. He's due to go and visit Saudi Arabia to visit the UAE. He's been talking to Qatar. And so that's the other side of the energy discussion, if you like at the end, he's also got to try and find other sources for the conventional energy that we already need. Now let's move on to the European papers and have a look at el pais. Spain is in this really difficult situation that geographically it is quite removed from what is going on in Ukraine and on the borders with NATO and the European Union. But what it has now done is made it absolutely blatantly clear by drawing a massive map. Explain to us that this is getting closer. Yes, that's right. In the place that we have here, instead of saying Putin is coming near to NATO's territory. And we have a map of Ukraine with little explosion kind of graphics showing precisely how near the attack the Russian attacks have come to the Polish border and of course we all heard about the attack on the military base, which is only 25 kilometers from the front from the border. And this map, as you say, helpfully points out and sort of shades in members of NATO in green and members of members of the UE, the EU. Although the map obviously doesn't go as far as Spain, but it is showing trying to obviously point out to Spanish readers that saying this is getting closer, Russia, you know, caused 35 deaths on the base only 25 kilometers from Poland and the United States is saying that the Atlantic alliance will do everything with all its force if Moscow does actually start to cross those lines and obviously raising concerns among the readership here that this is what potentially could happen were anything to spill over into the borders of the rest of the Europe. Finally, let's move on to a story which is broken on the FT's front pages quite recently. Saying that China has signaled willingness to help Russia with military support. And this is a line coming out of the United States who let's face it their intelligence has been absolutely second to none. The opinion column inside the Financial Times talks about this really difficult position that the Chinese leader Xi Jinping has in terms of standing shoulder to shoulder when it comes to a condemnation of NATO with Russia. But if it gets too embroiled in this, then it will find itself in a very tricky position. Yes, that's right. The FT has made a lot of the running on this particular story about China and their front page a day they're saying that U.S. diplomatic cables, the U.S. has told allies that China has signaled its willingness to provide military assistance and a on the inside pages, Gideon rachman, the sort of foreign affairs, global affairs commentator is saying that, you know, this is causes a fateful decision on Ukraine for China and really quite drastic terms here. He is suggesting that that decision could spell the end for the globalized economic system that has fueled China's extraordinary rise over the past 40 years. And his argument here is essentially that this is threatening Beijing's long game because if they are seen to be helping Russia and supplying supplying Russia particularly with military aid that that might lead to reciprocal sanctions from the west and from U.S. they're saying it's likely to be targeted with secondary sanctions, which the U.S. national security adviser is going to point out this week and that that could really put China's strategy at risk saying China is not nearly self sufficient in either energy or food and it is worried. About this. And so the conclusion of this article here is that Xi's decision to embrace Putin now looks like a miscalculation. It's hard to play the long game if you tie yourself to a reckless gambler. Terry is an thank you so much for joining us in the studio. You're listening to the globalist..

"My podcast, I started it back in the very early days of podcasting back in 2010. When hardly anybody else was doing it. And originally, it was just something just to keep on a psychotherapist or just a hypnotherapist in those days, but it was just a way of offering my one to one client a little bit of something extra in between their sessions to be able to listen. And then as podcast started to get more popular, I thought, I'm going to put this out to the public to let everybody have a listen. And so it's really over the years. Morphed into a psychological education personal development and very down to earth self help. Podcast. Really just to help people that have got emotional insecurities to help them understand themselves better. Anxiety to help them get to terms with what that is and give them really a friendly voice to help them feel at home. And that's over these last ten years that really seems to have hit home for people. That's exactly what they've been looking for. So I'm very proud of it. Very proud of it. What I love about it is it's very solutions based, isn't it? Yes. Yes, and I think I have always been relatively solution focused, myself, and I think that probably goes back to my original therapy training, which was in hypnotherapy, which is very solution focused and we don't tend to contrary to popular belief, all hypnotherapy isn't about going back in time in your mind and analyzing your childhood and stuff like that. There's elements of that, of course, in every therapy, but yeah, I'm a very solution focused therapist and as a podcast do somebody emails and say this is my problem. How do I tackle it? I tend to think outside of the box a little bit or think critically and go, let's look at different ways of tackling this issue. But again, it is more about it is more about solutions than it is just about an attitude. There is maybe an attitude that sort of runs through the show. But it is more solution focused than sort of flowery and generic. Yeah. It's great. So it's very accessible really. And also, they're very, they're fairly brief actually as well, which maybe not enough podcast stuff. No solutions based and very briefly you have episodes like dealing with toxic people and loneliness and jealousies are very specific things that people can think of if I'm struggling with things are overwhelming emotions. I could go to that particular one and hear some advice and some practical things I could do about it. Why did you undertake that approach and how do you come up with them which issued to tackle? Well, almost admit after ten 11 years of doing it, I did think maybe I'd start running out of things to say. But it turns out, no. You can't shoot me up. I think although there is a lot of not quite repetition as such, but I do will often sometimes mention a similar topic again, but maybe 5 years later with a little bit more wisdom and experience from my part and also culture changes people evolve over time societies, different now than it was ten years ago. I could go back and do exactly the same episodes, and it would probably be fitting more in 2022 than it would in 2012. So coming up with ideas of something to talk about, that's going to be never ending the dictionary is full of scary words that we can talk about there absolutely is. The temptation to do longer stuff is there and I'll do that with other people. But when it's just my own little thing, now I put all my effort into cramming everything into 15 minutes and that does mean that if there's a topic I want to talk about, I have to be quite selective as to what's useful for somebody. So I spend all day working on something that takes 15 minutes and I think it shows, I think it shows. And do you know what some of you are most listened to episodes are? Yeah, back in, I think it was 2017. I was approached by a book publisher to write a book and I said, yeah, of course, yes, because I'd read my articles and listen to my podcast for a fair few years, the publishers were fans. And they said, look, let's have a look through all your downloads and see what sort of topic is the most popular. What do people really want to know about and you can write a book just on that if you like. So we look through all the stats and consistently over the years. It was anything that mentioned the word happy. Whenever I mentioned anything to do with unhappiness or techniques for boosting happiness and things like that, those downloads went through the roof compared to all the other ones. So I think that was what people were searching for in their podcast apps. So that's what the book ended up being about. And they called it 15 minutes to happiness because they wanted me to do things that took 15 minutes that people can integrate into their day over the course of their life to boost their well-being. And yeah, that's still, I mean, it's been a couple of years, but that's still the case now. That the search terms that people are looking for, because that's the words they use. They're not happy. They're not necessarily Googling depression. They might do. But what they're looking at is the solution. And that's that they want to be happy. I'm so glad you brought the book up. Because obviously I wanted to chat about that as well. To this, what it was like writing that and also, I mean, I love the title, but is it really possible to become happier that quickly? It seems sort of amazing. Yeah, I think maybe the title could be misleading to some people. It takes longer than 15 minutes to read a book. So sure it's going to take me longer than 15 minutes to boost my happiness. Yeah, what they were looking at is the idea of there being just a few things you can do within your day that take 15 minutes. So it's not 15 minutes and you'll be happy, but it's doing things consistently that might take 15 minutes that throughout the however long it takes could be a year could be 5 years. How will I however long it takes for you to change your mindset and change some of your behaviors? It takes 15 minutes to get going is the premise of it. And some of those simple solution focused tools that we talk about in therapy. Sometimes it's just simple, deep breathing exercises. They don't take 15 minutes. It only takes 30 or 45 seconds to take a little bit of control over your heart rate and train your brain that you know what? I think I've got this. I think I can do this. This is going to be okay. But it means consistently doing things again and again, even if they do take 15 minutes to sit with the journal or something before you go to bed and just write or think or stare at the ceiling and meditate or something. Yeah, 15 minutes is good, but it's not one lot of 15 minutes. It's regular. Regular 15 minutes lots. So your book like your podcast is very solutions focused and you have various exercises in terms of how to increase happiness. Can you share some of those exercises with love to hear some of them? Yeah, of course. And I think there is always a foundation to a lot of the really successful processes that people will go through. They say, well, this helps me. More often than not, it involves other people. And I know that that's not always easy for somebody that's maybe got insecurities and anxieties, but it does seem that the biggest cure if we dare to use a word like that for mental health issues. We probably shouldn't be fair. The biggest benefit can come from connecting to other people in the right way. Whether that's connecting with a complete stranger, doing something for the good of your community, donating to a food bank, putting a post it note on a bus seeks in front of you with a smiley face that says have a nice day whoever sits here next. You know, those simple things that certainly don't take 15 minutes. Genuinely, if you do that on a regular basis, those simple silly things that help you connect to your community and connect to a friend or relative to something that feels there's a human connection, not genuinely boost our well-being more than probably a lottery windward. Genuinely. That's so interesting to hear because I think a lot of people are struggling with the idea of maybe having lost some of those connections over the pandemic, certainly from not being able to see people in person.

"Welcome to the briefing we are live from studio one here at Midori house in London and I'm Chris tarmac. Coming up on today's show after world leaders agreed to a deal to limit crime trains, the question on everybody's mind is, does it go anywhere near far enough? Also up ahead the U.S. president Joe Biden and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping hold their most extensive talks to date. The two leaders will discuss ways to responsibly manage the competition between the United States and the PRC, as well as ways to work together where our interests align. After that, we'll be looking at the son of Libya's longtime ruler Muammar Gaddafi, who's thrown his hat into the ring ahead of next month's presidential elections. And finally Monaco's Chris lord will be here for a roundup of the day's newspapers. What have you seen for us, Chris? So we'll get the latest Chris on the blast yesterday in Liverpool. UK police have now just declared this a terrorist incident, so we'll have a bit of a roundup and look at that. And then we'll look at Steve Bannon, who obviously on Friday was held in contempt of court or in the charge of the contempt of court. He's expected to turn himself into UK at the U.S. authorities later today, so we'll see where he's at. And then finally, Paris apparently is a rubbish bin, according to a key cultural adviser to president Macron, who said the city of lights is no more. It is no more, but we'll have more on that later in the show, all that right here on the briefing with me, Chris turmeric. A deal at any summit is only as good as its implementation. And so after the world's leaders agreed Ed cop 26 in Glasgow over the weekend to curb the most dangerous emissions causing climate change, the question really is what happens next? The Glasgow climate pact did make some symbolic moves. It's the first ever climate deal to explicitly talk of reducing coal, for example. But it's also already clear that the pledges do not go far enough to limit temperature rise to 1.5°C. While to help us unpack what all of this means, we are now joined by Malcolm grimston, he is an honorary senior research fellow at imperial college London's center for environmental policy. Thanks very much for coming on once again, Malcolm to help with this. I mean, let's just start with what is your mood after the weekend? It's like you sort of one of this is more or less what we expected. We should be clear cut wasn't a matter of negotiating very great detail, the particular carbon plan three country. That has to be done by the sovereign governments of those countries. And the fact that there is in place an agreement that each country will republish its prime is action plans by the end of the year with tougher targets is probably about as far as we could have expected. I think that's good there. And as you mentioned, you know, this is the first mention of coal at the last minute the wording was changed to phase down rather than phase out. But that's a move in the right direction. Of itself, you're quite right, because saying this won't get us to 1.5°. I'm far from convinced that that's actually technically or certainly politically possible. But I think it does move the debate forward to what there needs to be ultimately, which is a tipping point where suddenly environmental policy takes center stage in a wide range of countries. And then countries that don't do that, become somewhat prior. We're not quite there. But I do think this is a move in the right direction. And some of the things like an agreement to stop deforestation by 2030 could cut me sane emissions by.
