Do you have the key behaviors and characteristics of Chutzpah? Coming up next on Veteran on the Move. Welcome to Veteran on the Move. If you're a veteran in transition, an entrepreneur wannabe, or someone still stuck in that J -O -B trying to escape, this podcast is dedicated to your success. And now, your host, Joe Crane. Getting a new car is exciting, and you deserve a hassle -free buying experience. For more on Navy Federal's car buying experience, visit navyfederal .org. All right, today we're talking with Mason Harris, author of The Chutzpah Advantage. So Mason, before we get to talk about The Chutzpah Advantage, take us back, tell us a little bit about your background. Well, I'm an entrepreneur, as are many of your people in the audience. I believe in the concept of Chutzpah, or chutzpah as how I pronounce it, other people pronounce it chutzpah because it contributes to people's success because it enables them or gives them the courage to stretch boundaries. And as vets, you all know about stretching boundaries. So I start with the premise that you all have the basics of the chutzpah principles. Now it's a question of fine -tuning them. The way an athlete might know, oh, I can, who's never picked up a basketball, oh, I can probably get this ball in the basket from here. And eventually they will. But to learn the finer techniques to refine their skills is what makes them a better basketball player, even though they have some of the rudimentary skills to start with. There is one thing first, Joe, I need to thank you and basically the audience, all of you who are vets, I thank you for your service. And you hear it a lot. I'm not a veteran. I came of age at a time when Vietnam War was ending and there was a lot of bad publicity. It never really was a path for me and I'm sorry I never pursued it or even investigated it. But I do would like to share another area of appreciation. My parents are immigrants. They came over to this country in 1949. On May 5th, 1945, in Eastern Europe, American troops liberated a concentration camp in Lansing, Austria. My mother, age 18, was one of the women that they liberated. So we want to talk about the impact that you guys have on people's lives, on our country's defense, on our liberties, on our freedoms. This is it. This is as close as I can get in a very meaningful way. So thank you all. Oh, that's amazing. Amazing story. And hopefully you get to hear some of that from, you've been able to hear some of that directly from your mother, huh? Oh, yes, yes, I did. And there's a, she even has testimony at the US Holocaust Museum where she talks about the liberation. Yeah. Yeah. If you're ever in DC and you haven't been through the Holocaust Museum, wow, phenomenal. Just, you know, I mean, some of the stuff in the museum just hits you hard right in the chest. It's one of the most impactful museums that we have, I believe, in my opinion. So it's phenomenal. You can never beat it. They did a good job. Absolutely. They really did. Some of the artifacts and collections that they had from World War II and the concentration camps is amazing. So good stuff. Well, tell us, you know, about your entrepreneurial journey. Sure. Growing up, there's the school education and the street education. I grew up in New York, as I mentioned earlier, and both were very, very valuable. And I also realized that the people who drove the newer cars, who seemed to have the bigger houses, seem to, as I investigated, have taken different risks in their lives. Many of them own small businesses. A lot of people didn't. So I began associating what they had done with the idea that they had chutzpah. So let me actually ask you, do you have a sense, or could you provide a definition? And for everybody in our audience, think about this, how might you define this word? And if you're not familiar with it, let me say that if I give you a scenario, wow, what that person did in building up that business took a lot of chutzpah. What might be the perception that you, and even our audience members, what would you think from that? I would think chutzpah has to do with, and this is not me Googling the definition or anything ahead of time. I'm going totally, because I've heard the word before, but I don't really know what it is until we started this interview. Chutzpah is somewhat like a mindset or internal fire, internal motivation, and a mindset of I'm going to accomplish something. Stick -to -itiveness is one of the military terms, stick -to -itiveness. Which we would also call perseverance. Perseverance. It's all that. This is right on target with where we're headed. But that stick -to -itiveness is one of, I consider eight key characteristics. There are more of acts of chutzpah. So the stick -to -itiveness, I remember I did a presentation, it was actually to a sales team in Oklahoma. Now if I'm speaking in New York or I'm speaking in Chicago or L .A., I kind of expect when I ask the question, anybody here familiar with the word chutzpah, that a number of hands will go up. A good number of hands. If I'm in New York, a couple of fistfights may break out. It's hard to tell. Depends on the mood that day, how hot it is outside. When I asked in basically, actually I spoke in both Montana and Oklahoma to sales teams, but I think it was, I said Montana, I asked the question and I wasn't sure how many hands would go up. A couple of hands went up and the best definition I heard grit, determination, and then somebody said gumption. And I said, what a great word, we're familiar with it, and it helps describe it. Now chutzpah is universal. So I also spoke with somebody at a presentation, I spoke at another presentation, somebody came up to me afterwards and said, you know what you just described is very similar to what we call sisu. And I said, sisu, is that English? He said, no, it's Finnish. And in Finland, the word sisu represents those qualities of, you're not going to get the better of me. I will find a way around whatever obstacles you put in my way. I will continue to stretch my personal comfort boundaries because I have a mission. I have an objective and I'm going to accomplish it. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, I will say one of the things veterans are known for coming out of the military is that drive, that determination. You give them a task, a mission oriented, mission oriented means I'm going to accomplish this mission and I'm not going to let anything get in my way. And it works. Veterans not only make great employees, but they make great entrepreneurs because of this. They're going to get things done. They're going to figure out a way and they're not going to quit until they do. Unfortunately, it's one of those things that you can't really put on a resume. It's one of those things we refer to as soft skills. All those people oriented skills, the hard skills are like degrees and certifications and initials behind your name. Those are hard skills that employers tend to hire towards hard skills because soft skills are not nearly as tangible. You don't know they got the soft skills until after you've been working with them for a while. But veterans, when it comes to the soft skills, that's where veterans shine. Yes. Well, and it's interesting because our audience is veterans and a lot of entrepreneurs, it's kind of a double dose of I'm going to continue to stretch boundaries. And I talk about that because I know that for a lot of people, there's safety in, you know, I'm not going to I'm not going to participate in this group discussion because people don't pay attention to my ideas anyway. And those people are they're they're so loud. Let them talk. Or I'm not going to challenge my boss on something in a good way, because I think there's something that he or she is missing. Right. It takes chutzpah to be able to say, you know, I like the idea, but have we thought about what in happens the event a competitor does this instead of reacting the way we're supposing right now? What's the downside? And if we think that way, what can we do to prepare for it? So I think the audience, again, no doubt in my mind, everybody on this call has chutzpah. So now the question is, what are those key characteristics that I keep referring to? And how might it apply to them as veterans, but more importantly, as entrepreneurs? And actually, not more importantly, because for those veterans who are looking for the right job and who can't say, you know, in the military, I had great people skills, which enabled me to accomplish a lot more. And where as other people typically give up on certain tasks, I will continue to persevere. Those soft skills, they are important and possibly presented differently on an interview, they may have a different impact. So that's something that depending on time, we might be able to explore as well. Absolutely. Well, we're gonna take a quick break and we'll start addressing that as soon as we come back.
Milk Crates and Turntables. A Music Discussion Podcast
Fresh update on "1949" discussed on Milk Crates and Turntables. A Music Discussion Podcast
"Community service had three months worth of Alcoholics Anonymous meetings that she did not give two cents about. After much, she would go and then probably start drinking right afterwards. After a much-riffed incident with the police, she points a fucking shotgun at police and only gets $200 back then. And lived. I mean, I can't think of that. If you pulled the gun, I mean, you know, that's, it's full, and she was drunk. She was a messy drunk. My sister saw them when she, in the early 80s. Oh, this video of her. She was on stage telling everyone to leave. She was yelling at the crowd. Get out of here. Oh, man. Contemporary artist. Sloppy. Very sloppy. Wow. Not the worst in a sloppy female drunk. I'm sorry, women. It's just not, it's just not appealing. I think sloppy drunk, whatever the sex, is pretty bad. Nah, female, it's just something, I just have a higher image of women. I have a higher level, and seeing a sloppy female, it's just always turned me off. I was like, if she could be the most beautiful girl in the world, and if she's a sloppy drunk, I'm like, you gotta go. Yeah. I know I can get the second prettiest woman in the world. So, yeah, I just thought it never was appealing to me. You're married to the prettiest woman in the world. Thank you. Aw, thank you very much. Aw, wow. I feel like Rip Taylor. I told you, every time she walks in the room, that music plays. I'm like, how do you do that? How do you do that? Where's that noise coming from? Let's see. June 9th, this was one of the stories of the year in 1994. Lisa Left Eye Lopez of TLC gets in a domestic dispute with partner André for Moonrisin, sets fire to his shoes. The fire ultimately spreads to the mansion. She put him in the bathtub, and it was a fucking, it was a fiberglass bathtub, right? And she likes his tennis, his sneakers on fire, and then catches on to the, the bathtub catches on fire. Good luck putting that out. Yeah. Burnt the whole mansion down. Yep. Yeah. And totally destroyed it. June 21st, 1994, George Michael loses his legal bid in a London court to be released from his contract with Sony Records. The only one that ever beat Sony Records?

He did, he did well on his own, but Michael Jackson just handed it to them. June 27th, 1994, Arrowsmith becomes the first major band to premiere a new song on the internet. Over 10,000 CompuServe subscribers download the free track headfirst within its first eight days of availability. CompuServe. CompuServe.

Let's see, moving into July, July 12th through the 16th, a yo-yo-a-go-go punk and indie rock festival opens in Olympia, Washington, home of Courtney Love.

Suede announces that guitarist Bernard Butler has left the band following a fractious recording sessions. Anyway, August 9th, Peter Maxwell Davies conducts the first performance of his fifth symphony at the Royal Albert Hall in London as part of The Proms. That's a British thing. Let me see.

Machine Head released their first album, Burn My Eyes, which was a big success and becomes Roadrunner Records' best-selling debut album. August 11th, The Compact Disc Company, a compact disc copy of Sting's album Ten Summoner's Tales, released the previous year, and becomes the first item securely purchased over the internet. The CD is sold for $12.48, plus shipping and handling fees. Wow. August 12th through the 14th, Woodstock 94 is held in... I was there. Sugar T's New York. You were? Yeah. As with the original 1969... Did your parents let you go to that, Mark? My father was able to get the tickets for me because he worked in Woodstock. Ah. And he got me the Primo's parking lot, which was only a mile from the field, so we could walk back and forth because the buses stopped pretty quick. As with the original 69 Festival, attendance is swelled by a high number of gate crashes while heavy rains turn the festival grounds into a sea of mud. Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, Aerosmith, Bob Dylan, Crosby, Stills, Nash, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Peter Gabriel, and Green Day are among the many performances. That was the mud fight with Green Day, right? They were throwing chunks of sod at them. I wasn't at that. I was at the South Stage, and I think my highlight was Neville Brothers. What a show. Wow. Okay. I probably would have rather have seen the Neville Brothers than Green Day. Me too. But looking at the Green Day shows, it looked like it was fun, though. I think it was a lot of fun. August 23rd, 1994, Jeff Buckley releases his single, critically acclaimed, full length studio album, Grace. There's my regret of the 90s. I didn't listen to him when it came out, and now I'm listening, I'm like, I would have been the biggest fan if I had listened to it then. August 30th, what's that? I don't know. Was that well received when it came out? It was critically acclaimed. It was Elliot Smith, his record that came out that year was not, at the time, wasn't like, there's no big buzz about it. It was only after he died. August 30th, 1994, Oasis releases their debut album, Definitely Maybe. It becomes the fastest selling debut album in the United Kingdom until 2006, when it was beaten by the Octic Monkeys debut album, whatever people say I am, that's what I'm not. Yeah, Definitely Maybe, great album. Great album. Let's see, that's some Latin stuff. That's my favorite Oasis album, by the way. Definitely Maybe? Yeah. Because I bought it on import, reading it in a British magazine, everyone liked it, I didn't hear of them, so I went and I got it, and I'm like, holy shit, it's great. Yeah, it was so different. Yep, yep. September 6th, 1994, Bad Religion released their eighth studio album and proper major label debut, Stranger than Fiction. This proved to be the last feature founding feature, founding guitarist, songwriter, Brett Gurewitz, for seven years until his return. Gurewitz would be replaced by former minor threat, dagnasty junkyard guitarist, Brian Baker, who turned down the touring job with REM at this time, and eventually becomes a permanent member of Bad Religion. Let's see, September 15th, 1994, a 1957 audio tape of John Lennon performing with the Quarrymen on the same night he met Paul McCartney fetches about $80,000 at Sotheby's in London. It should be worth more than that. October 11th, 1994, Korn, a nu metal band from, one of my favorite bands. Seen them six times, seven times. Remember the first time I heard them? Wow.

I can't remember the name of the song. Faggot? No, no. Talked about abuse, but it was- Oh, a lot of his lyrics are about that. Yeah.

Anyway. Let's see. October 12th, Jimmy P. and Robert Plant, no quarter, unleaded, premieres on MTV.

Oh, wow. November 2nd. December 2nd. We're getting there. December 2nd. Seattle record label Sub Pop. Wasn't that the Nirvana? Yeah. A lot of stuff. Mother Love Bone? No. Mother Love Bone? Sub Pop Interscope or something. And a deal believed to be worth over $30 million. December 18th. My birthday. 1994. Paul Oakenfolds. Great DJ. One of the original, like, star, DJ, you know, stars. Paul Oakenfolds legendary Goa mix, his first broadcast in the early hours of the day as BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix. That was December 19th? 18th. 18th. Okay. I'm writing it down because it was your birthday. December 19th, Arrowsmith opens a 250 seat Mama... The 250 seat Mama Kim Music Hall in Boston, owned by the group with a performance by them to open the band. I don't think that thing lasted long. December 31st, end of 1994, the 23rd annual New Year's Rockin' Eve special airs on ABC with appearances by Alyssa Etheridge, who went on to, her wife had David Crosby's baby. That baby was born with a predisposition for many addictions, you know. I mean... The kid still isn't a star, by the way. No, he died. He committed suicide. Did he? Yeah. Oh, wow. Whoa, whoa, whoa. How come I never heard that story? I think he had some addiction problems. 2014? When did he do that? Not too long ago, I don't think. Oh, shit. Maybe I did remember that and I just don't remember it. That doesn't make any sense. Maybe I did remember it and I just don't remember it. What am I, fucking Curly from The Three Stooges? What the fuck was that? In the head with too many lamps, Scott. Yeah, yeah. And so was I. Who was her significant other that was it? Anne Hesh? Yeah, I think so. She came to a grizzly end, too. She did. That was fucked up. Fucking crazy, right? Yeah. It's the video. Someone's fucking... Someone's house. What are they called? You're seeing it happen. You see the fucking car fly by. Like, whoa. Yeah. Going fast. Yeah. And she had some issues, too. So that poor kid never really had a chance. I'm not being funny about that. David Crosby? I mean, at least he might come out ugly. You know? He might come out with that mustache and that weird long hair. And the bozo haircut? And the bozo? Bozo. The bozo haircut? Yeah. My theory is if you have male pattern baldness, do not grow long hair. No. Just shave it. Just take it off. Bring it home. I would do that. I just like long hair. Yeah. So the New Year's Rockin' Eve with the parents is by Melissa Etheridge, the O'Jays, Salt-N-Pepa, Hootie and the Blowfish, and John Sakata. And let me see. That's basically it. Nothing else. Tony Wilson. Oh, and the summer. No, this is for the people that probably know about the Manchester movement, the Madchester. In the summer of 94, Tony Wilson attempts to revive Factory Records. Factory Records was like the record company in Manchester. And they did like the Happy Mondays and they got all, you know. Spiral Carpets. Joy Division. Yeah. He grabbed all those bands. But not the Smiths. He didn't get the Smiths. He tried to revive Factory Records in a collaboration with London Records and called it Factory 2, and it just never really went anywhere. Let's see. Offspring frontman Dexter Holland and bassist Greg Kressel from the label Nitro Records. An incubator for successful punk artists. They started their own label. Social distortion manager. Todd Salkman. Big Social D fan. He was a big fan back then. I always gave that dude credit, man. The lead singer, Mike Ness, I think it is. The tattoos. Way ahead of his time. The neck tattoos and the... Like that dude, he was a rock star too. Still is. They're still around. And so that's what we have there. Yeah. Let's go with bands that formed in 1994. There's a bunch of them. There's a bunch of them. Some of them maybe people didn't hear about, and I threw a couple of bands in here that you've never heard of, but just because of the name, I threw it in there. I looked this shit up, and there's a lot of fucked up names, and you wonder why they didn't make it. I think there's very few really good band names. If you call yourself... I'm just going to say it. If you call yourself the Jizz Drinkers, you're not going to make it. You're just not going to make it. Yeah. Bad advice, bad decisions. Bad decisions ruin that band. You're not going to go on Letterman. No. And the name just right there, you're just dead in the water. Yeah. Yeah. And there's a couple of bad jokes rolling around, but I'm just going to let that go. Anyways. So let's see. Bands formed in 1994. The Basement Jacks. Where's your head at? Never heard of them. Jesus. Todd Sockman saw Social Distortion in 92 in Davis, California. Great concert. Yep. I tell you. Todd is a Social D fan from the beginning. How can I put this? The Pearl Jam ripoff band Creed. Creed was... Can you take me home? That dude Scott Sapp was a total douchebag. Worth my shirt. Total douchebag. He thought he literally was like a god. Yeah. Oh, absolutely. He was the downfall of that band. His ego was way bigger than it should have been. His downfall was for all to see on MTV when he was all drunk. Remember that interview? Yeah. That was great. It's Stapp. What's his name? Stapp. Yeah. Scott Stapp. Scott Stapp. Yeah. The Dandy Warhols. Stapp it, please. The Dandy Warhols. Love them. Love the Dandy Warhols. Very independent band. They did the theme song to... What was the name of that show? Veronica Mars. I loved that show back in the day. The Shades of Veronica Mars or something? Huh? Was it The Shades of Veronica Mars or something? You're thinking of... That was a... The movie. Yeah. What's her name? From Barney and Clyde. Faye Dunaway. Faye Dunaway movie. The Eyes of Laura Mars or something? That's it. Yeah. My God, the professor is off tonight. Yeah. Wow. Or maybe I'm on. I know stuff. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I know stuff. You know stuff. Yeah. It doesn't mean he's off. It means I'm on. You don't have to devalue me. I've been negatively impacted by this. You've triggered some emotions in me. This is like a sports game when a team upsets another team. Did the lesser team win because they were better or the bigger team didn't do it? Okay. You win. I like that. You win, Scott. You win. You win. That's right. That's right. Mark, there's this road and there's this road. You got to pick one. Yes. Pick the one you're going to travel. I'll take this one. There you go. Hey, Lou. When he goes low, we go high, Lou. That's right. Hey, listen. We will take you higher. I know how to talk to drummers. There you go. Let's stop with the pre-reference. Lou wins. Lou wins. Hey, drummer. I'm going to break your sticks. Okay.

James Lindsay: Marxist Tactics Exposed
"They know there's legitimate issues around civil rights and especially that there have been in the past So they hide in those things as radical splinter cells And then they erupt out these very intentional deliberate tactics But the key point of the lecture I gave the parliament in Europe was that when we look at western Marxism we have to look at Marxism as a system that attacks civilizations or societies And it's going to find where it can get in So in peasant societies like you had in Russia in 1917 and China like you had in 1949 it can get in through class It can work its way in through class division But in the west the marxists of the 20th century admitted it won't get in through class in America in Western Europe because we have class mobility If you work your ass off you can rise up in the structure as the marxists themselves said we see the capitalism allows people to build a better life that stabilizes the working class so they won't be a revolutionary class So they have to use the same motif but they put it in a different location So I said you don't want to think of it like with animals like with genus versus species The genus is cats in this case it's Marxism but if you think of genus as cats you got tigers you got lions you got house cats you got bobcats You got pumas They're all different kinds of cats but they're all still cats Here Marxism is one type of attack on a civilization One type of modality to take over sees control of the means of production and ruinous society And you've got class based Marxism which is classical Marxism You've got race based Marxism which is critical race theory You've got what's considered normal based Marxism and that's queer theory and the gender theory You've got based on men and women patriarchy or whatever you want to call it you got Marxist feminism It's the exact same attacks the exact same structure the exact same goals and the goal is actually just to seize power In whatever they want to do after they get power is what we're all going to get which looks a lot like eating bugs and living in pods

How Woke Liberals Ruined Aspen With Glenn Beaton
"Welcome to the program. Hi, Charlie. How are you? I'm doing well. So Glenn, I've been visiting Aspen for quite some time for people that have not been to Aspen. It is as close to heaven on earth in the summer, as you can get to. And that's one of the reasons why it has been so attractive to not just the billionaires, but the billionaires of the billionaires, the plutocrats of the plutocrats. Tell us about how Aspen used to be and what these people have done to it. Well, Aspen has a long and very interesting history. You know, it started as a silver mine town in the 1880s, 1870s. And it had its boom for a while. And at one point it was supplying one 6th of the country's silver supply, and one 16th of the world's silver supply. It was huge. They had electric lights. They had a Charlie down Main Street. It was really quite an advanced place for the time. Of course, the silver bus came. And they became virtually a ghost town. And they went through the quiet years up to the 30s and the early 40s. And then something quite amazing happened. A prominent wealthy industrialist out of Chicago called Walter peppy and his wife, Elizabeth, got enamored by the place, moved there, and drew with them all these Chicago connections. And they got acquainted with veterans of the tenth mountain division. The World War II skiing outdoorsy mountaineering division. Who were familiar with Aspen because they had trained nearby. So they saw Aspen. They saw the snow, they saw the beauty. They had a vision for it. And so this industrialist with his money and the tenth mountain people with their expertise and their attitude and their ambition started Aspen, we founded Aspen as a ski resort. And it quickly became sort of an intellectual retreat of these people were really very intellectual. Friends with mordor Adler and they started the Aspen institute in 1949. It took off. And it was wildly successful for a while. They had all kinds of terrific stuff going on there. They started the Aspen institute, the aspirin music festival, which is still in existence. The ideas festival came a little bit later. The place really became kind of like an Athens of the west or a Chicago in the rockies. It was tremendously successful and a wonderful place. It all kind of went to hell in the 60s when the Hollywood types and the drug types and Hunter S. Thompson types moved to town and dragged it down.
America First with Sebastian Gorka Podcast
Former VA Sec. Robert Wilkie Unpacks the SCARIEST Military Stat
"I talk about readiness in recruitment. First of all, I'd much rather have one or two fit guys than have to carry ten who aren't fit, but they put them in under the guise of equity. There's a much deeper issue here. When you hear the statistics and sometimes the numbers are 4%, sometimes the number is 1%. Of the American high school population being fit for military service. That is probably the scariest statistic that I know of why. Because we have eliminated in most high schools and junior high schools. The sense of competition. Physical education, games that require winning and losing. Winning and losing. And eliminating that because somebody might not be able to participate. But on top of that, the Caucasian of our youth that in the words of our president, this country has so many irredeemable problems. And an irredeemable past. These are the words that the Chinese foreign minister, fired at mister blinken. In anchorage. At anchorage, blinken couldn't say a thing other than we have to get better. To a country that's murdered a 100 million people since 1949. He was dumbstruck because the communist Chinese diplomat was using Democrat and BLM talking points back at our Secretary of State and he just sat there and took it.

China sanctions Reagan library, others over Tsai's US trip
"China is retaliating for this week's U.S. meeting between Taiwan's president and Republican House speaker Kevin McCarthy. Today, China announced sanctions against the Ronald Reagan presidential library in Simi Valley, California. That's where Wednesday's talks were held between McCarthy and Taiwan's president Tsai ing Wen. U.S. China relations have sunk to their lowest level in decades, partly because of disputes over the status of Taiwan, which split with China in 1949 after a Civil War. China's ruling Communist Party says Taiwan is obliged to reunite with China and has no right to conduct foreign relations. China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs also announced sanctions against the Hudson institute a Washington think tank John a water Washington

China's "Century of Western Humiliation" With Jack Posobiec
"You and I have both been warning, hey, there's going to be a new superpower alliance happening and the American regime is cheerleading for it and is actually helping it happen. Chilling last couple of days in Moscow as Xi Jinping Winnie the pooh goes to Moscow to meet with Vladimir Putin and they say, quote, there are changes that have not happened in a hundred years that are happening when we meet take care of yourself dear friend. Play cut 73 and then Jack, I want you to make sense of this for me. What does this mean? I'm not even sure, play cut 73. Now there are changes that haven't happened in 100 years. When we are together, we drive these changes. I agree. Take care of yourself to your friend. Please. Jack, what does this mean? So to understand China, you have to understand that the way they teach history, they refer to something as the hundred years of humiliation of the century of humiliation. So the century humiliation goes from the opium war of about 1859 all the way up to 1949, which is of course the founding of the People's Republic of China. So they could refer to that as the century of humiliation, meaning humiliation by what, humiliation at the hands of the west. So the flip side of that for him to say, this is a change we haven't seen in a hundred years. What he's actually referring to is their new plan for 2049. That's their target date on forward where it's the century of western humiliation that he wants the west to be brought down low. And what does the United States done throughout all of this? They've driven Russia. The biggest wildcard in all of this, Russia, which had been trying to extend economic ties to Europe. Of course, we've now see where those economic ties are. They've been blown up. Most likely by the Biden administration and their allies at the bottom of the Baltic Sea and driven Russia in to the arms of China. This is the most historic meeting that we've seen in terms of the global geopolitical balance of power since Nixon going to China,
The Mason Minute
Mind Your Own Business (MM #3878)
"The mason minute. With Kevin mason, there's an old time song done by Hank Williams senior back in 1949 called mind your own business, his son Han junior had a hit with it in the 80s. Got to thinking about that song the other day, hadn't heard it in a while, but I remember the hook of the song. If you mind your own business, you sure won't be mind in mind. I get the sense these days that everybody wants to be in everybody else's business, but don't want you to pay attention to their business and they sure don't want to pay attention to their own business. We're living in a world now in a society where we want to worry about what everybody else is doing. And everybody else is living their lives and we aren't worried about living our lives. Some will claimants about freedoms, but in reality, if we really worked on the problems in our own homes, there wouldn't be as many problems outside the homes. I'm fascinated by this whole discussion about school boards and masks in the families and who makes the decision about what. And I think to myself just a few years ago, we were complaining that parents weren't involved in their children's schooling. They couldn't be bothered with it, but the minute you introduce a mask, people all of a sudden care. Let's look inside ourselves and see what we can fix and not worry about what other people are doing. I'm sure we'd be better off, wouldn't we?

"And welcome back to coast to coast. George Noory with you, Along with Paul McGuire will take calls with Paul. Next downward. Paul. Back in 1949 Orwell published his book 1984. And then I read it in the mid sixties, when I was a teenager like you were, and it seemed then that 1984 was a million years away, Right? And now that was 37 years ago. Unbelievable. Exactly. It's frightening. I mean, it's mind blowing on Friday, it is mind blowing. And it's It's come about not quite in the way or well depicted it, but it has come about with more power. And I think Orwell anticipated. I I don't think had he come out with what is happening today in 1984. I think people would have panicked. Yeah, I agree. And they would never believe them because, as you know, it's beyond where we are now is so far beyond in many respects brave new world and 1984. It's so are beyond but it's not as predictable. You know, with or well there's big brother came out and said he was big brother. She said she was a big brother or whatever, Um, today, big brothers there, but it doesn't necessarily say big brother. No, it really isn't. Let's pick up where we left off before the break. You were talking about all these influences that you had had Yeah, very briefly, You know, So my experimentation caused me to reject Christianity completely at that time. And then I just as a synopsis I got involved. I experienced firsthand things like cosmic consciousness. I saw the great white light have had o B es out of body experiences. I have many kind of supernatural experiences, and I would say supernatural, but at the same time, rational and logical, like they were not insane supernatural experiences. They were Scientifically rational and logical. So having said that it became obvious to me when I when I started searching out really young. That there was some kind of Extra dimensional force, helping me or guiding me. I had no idea what it was okay, but there's just too many times. You know, you'd pick up a book for some reason, or you meet somebody. For some reason or this encounter, you'd be exposed to this. That or the other, everybody listening has had these experiences. Well when you start to pay attention to them, and when they start to come With a certain flow and frequency, then then you pay even more attention to them. So these critical figures that influenced my life and Influenced your life and millions and millions of people, especially people who went through the sixties and the seventies. And before that, you know that whole counterculture thing The whole love, peace Woodstock things. And to where we are now all the people have experienced that there have been What I've tried to do is find meaning out of it through for research. So, for example, I was in a library. Forgot where in the middle of nowhere as far as I'm concerned, But as I'm walking in the library, there's a book out on the book table that they're pushing. I don't know why they're pushing it. It's a book on L. Ron Hubbard. Okay? I'm not a Scientologist, So I'm not promoting Scientology. I'm not attacking Scientology. I'm just giving you my neutral experience. The book intrigues me, so I start to read it. Hell, I wouldn't normally read a book like that. It's just not a topic I'm interested in, but I began to read it and what I see in between the lines I get to get get me see glimmers of close to a deeper picture. So not only did that happen with that particular individual who was both the founder of Scientology and wrote, You know of tons of science fiction books, but it happened with people like Robert Heinlein, Isaac Asimov and others. So if we flash forward in the future now it's the 19 eighties. And I'm uh, about producer of independent science fiction feature films. In Hollywood and I live up in the Hollywood Hills, Laurel Canyon and Lookout Mountain. Sure, no one if IQ. What? No, it Well, I'm sure you have had a feeling you did? Yeah. And for those who don't know well, when when you've been there. I mean, it's like it's like the center of the world. And it was the center of the world to cultural degree in the sixties and seventies, all the rock and roll groups. You know the doors for Mamas and the Pappas Frank Zappa, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young and in many contemporary groups continued to be there and then actors like Peter Fonda and that whole crew that used to be with started out with Roger Corman in his films. So right there, Lookout Mountain and Laurel Canyon. It was like a. I believe that it's a vortex into another dimension. Other words, it's physically there and yes, obviously physically there. It's there. But let's be because the Level of cultural influence is so massive and so global that came out of there You had all those musicians and then I discover This is in the 19 eighties, I discovered that I am literally, you know, within a short walking distance, I'm talking about five houses. 10 houses 15 houses Max of many of these individuals. I've just named to you What a street were living there like L. Ron Hubbard was like four blocks. Footnote Box four houses away with Robert Heinlein. They had a science fiction think tank. And they both lived there. Scientology for Hubbard, right? Yes, right. But the only thing was they were there in 1947 now. When I'm there in the eighties were bumping into Timothy Leary at the LSD guru profit from Harvard. We run into him. He lives up there. Nixon hated him. What Richard Nixon hated him. Hated him. Absolutely. And but you would bump into him like I bumped into him, and he still is now bumping into him in Laurel Canyon in an exercise club. People like him live there and then one. Then Madonna had a big home of their Spielberg. Lucas. You know, you know, the whole crowd. It goes on forever that lived up there. So Am I start to write my my first couple of books. I've written 35 books on Bible prophecy in current events and stuff, And they say it was writing two books when I lived up in Laurel Canyon, and I was producing independent science fiction feature films one ironically, which is about a plague in the future of pandemic in the future that wipes out the human race. And that that film came out. I was 1985 or 86. You're a visionary on that one. Yeah, just decisions. Weird. Okay, So so I'm hiking on Lookout Mountain. And you know that real estate is so expensive up there that houses are pressed together so you can't often see into the valleys or you can't offer often see What's behind the houses you can see on the street, right? So I'm kind of sneaking around like I shouldn't be. You know, in between houses very close to where I live, One Lookout Mountain. And something catches my eye. I see a valley. I never saw the valley there. It's like very close to where I live. And so I sneak in between these two houses to get a better view of this valley and I look at this valley. And I see this strange building and I couldn't make heads or tails of what it was. My guess was because I eventually took my wife up there to look down on was that it was a cult compound for some Eastern mystical guru, you know? An Ashram or something because it didn't have any. It didn't look like it was a structure that didn't look like any other structure. I never forgot the way it looked, and I just engraved itself in my brain. And you know you put it into yourself to you need again in the future, so Some time about 10 years afterwards. All these stories began coming out number of report Independent reporters dug up some information about things like the Lookout Mountain Laboratory. So allegedly what I'm looking at down in this valley..

'cause i was must have been that gives blanket this this kid who's better ms in the attic comes out onto the ledge and they see the kid but it's to the ropes has burned. Greg can't climb back up. It doesn't occur to anybody to take the blanket. They just used and try to catch the baby. Good luck getting it to joe goes up to save. The child gets the kid but then the tree catches on fire. He can't climb down it. And there's a little bit of a sort of i feel like this kind of a calm reference Yeah dot joe's climbed up a tall thing with the bay with a person in his hand and his life is in danger. Is the tree burns up underneath him. But the tree starts to fall but kind gets caught on something so it doesn't crash down on top joe but he turns and falls saves the saves the child but as he's laying there the kid gets up and walks away and then another side of the building starts to collapse so joe runs over. There grabs the kid and takes the brunt of the force of the building on himself. Now this point. Did you think joe was gone for her. I did i eat out. This is the second time it was like. Oh no he's dead. I did think. I was like man. That was a really that they didn't do that very well. And but then. I realized okay. He's not dead but but had by this time. The police said max of shown up and we hear maxine. It's all right kid. There's no way in the world that anyone's gonna shoot a no one in the world's gonna shoot joe now. The baby saver my baby.

Yes yeah it should be like. Oh now that we know. Joe is useful. Were not going to kill us. It wasn't his fault that humans got him took him out of his environment and got him drunk to begin with man.

Jill and gregg and joe are all back in africa leading happy life and they do the banana trick again but this time it kinda sucks you know if you noticed. I did yeah. It didn't go as well. And i rewound it to make sure she throws the banana and joe reaches out to grab it but we see the actual banana flypast him off and then all of a sudden. It's just in his hand. Yeah so this work much better when she was standing in front of him and last who have but when she standing to the side of him. In tossing it yeah. There's no way for that banana to go. Yes pretended to throw it. And i think that would work. Better yeah we would have just. Our eyes would've filled in seeing the banana fly are we would just assumed it went too fast for us to see it. Yeah but they They and they lived happily ever after in africa. Nobody dies except possibly three lines. But we're not sure. We're not sure the movie ends with goodbye from joe young from mr josef young africa africa yes so i I did like this one actually been the other ones. I think they finally perfect. I feel it's less problematic than the others and the effects i think in general are little better. Of course. they've had two movies now to practice them. Yeah and a few years and hope array housing so warming is a good thing so any final thoughts on mighty jillian. Well i will say that. I felt emotionally connected to mighty joe. I is like i was rooting for him. I loved him. I was like boo humans as per usual But yeah. I really liked this one. I really enjoyed this one. I am excited for the next. What are we watching.

"Joe greg and jill in the rental van that they got into to take joe to the. There's a boat waiting somewhere they're gonna take joe to max's assistant his press agent or whatever that we saw earlier in the film has tampered. Windy is his name as tampered with the polices police car engine. So that they won't be able to follow part to this is happening when a after he cuts the phone cords when the cop like goes in he picks up the phone and he's like operator wake up operator. Does he not know how phone we're back. Then sometimes you couldn't dial a number directly you would have the operator that for you have to like go to zero like what i you didn't necessarily have to dial zero. You might just pick up the phone and ticket in call for the operator. I at least at least that's the way that's the way it seems to work. In a lot of movies i guess more sense. I was like what when i was young to get the operator you to dial zero them but earlier than that. The operators were just there and most of the time. I think you would just tell the operator what number you wanted rather than dialing it yourself. Royale phones were weird. Not everybody had a pocket computer that carried with them. All the time later is take a take a cable plug it into another slot for you to make your call but yeah. He doesn't know that she's not asleep. He's the courts been cut. So jalen gregor the van with joe. Windy and max in max's car and then armstrong does this stunt max claybon strong does the stump for no reason for no very. He climbed from his car while the car and the car in the van driving next to each other. He climbs out of the car and into the van can leaps onto the van and then they immediately stopped for. Yes immediately stopped for air. I was like what they're yeah not even gas air. One of the tires is low so they weren't in such a hurry that they couldn't stop and pull over because they pulled over just moments later. Yes i had this exact same thought. Like what the and wyler pulled over a hobo. Some kind tries to get into the back of the truck and sees joe and flips out and runs to the police and this guy apparently only speaks irish gaelic. Is that what it is because he just says. That's my old man's lingo. So i can go but when he gets yet the police in is trying to tell them about this guerilla just on the back of a van. But the can't understand him because he's been some foreign language but one of the cops is. That's my old man's ling. But then when that cop identifies himself. I didn't write it down. But he identifies himself as an by an irish last name so i assume it must be gaelic that that the guy is speaking. 'cause you know back then. All policemen were irish in the movies. Anyway i mean that's that has some basis in reality probably has to do with prejudice. No one wanted to hire the irish except the police. There's a whole history of bigotry against the irish when they first emigrated here so probably the only jobs they could get worse. Has police Anyway that's why. I conclude that the guys speaking irish gaelic so that but now they have a tip off of what direction. Oh so. I forgot the clue. He leaves them. As a mac to las vegas so that they will think when he dropped the paper on the on his office floor Math las vegas so that the police will think that's the direction they've gone in but they're really going the opposite way brilliant. How the how they're going to get there without map. I don't know but now they know because of the irish guy. They now know that the truck is heading in the opposite direction so they send out word to go the other way but then there's an altercation in the road some guys blocking the road with his truck and the rental van with joe in the back can't get past so greg just gets out punches life. Yeah he just gets up until this moment i thought greg that you were a poser. But this proves that you are down. I mean the guy is being kind of a jerk. Won't truck so so he punches the guy that they get a brilliant plan for joe in the back of this could be truck at max will take the van and lead them on a on a wild the giant ape. J. slow the other driver in the back of the van. The old switcheroo they assault kidnap a random stranger. They ran into the truck with it gets stuck in the dirt of joe gets out and pushes and they got stuck in the cops following him immediately. Get stuck in the same spot and drive away. The police are shooting at joe at he. Just taunts them out the back of the truck. Yeah literally wrote in my notes. Like joe gives the finger throwing gang signs. Yeah yeah he was very close to just flipping them off ben by this point. The police a found max in the van and arrested him and they all get out and telmex the push and he's like no. I refused a help. You chase my giant gorilla friend. And then as they're driving to the dock. There is an orphanage on fire. Turns red and that was cool. That was really cool. I really liked the red. Going from the black and white to the red i was like. Oh okay they've put it a red tint over the whole film because there's a raging fire going on and a black and white films used to do this kind of thing occasionally depending on the movie where they do some minor coloring of this type and it works really well. I think it in this movie and so that the sea cliff children's home is on fire and our heroes stopped to help even though they're being chased by the police. They're trying to save this giant gorilla. They're decent people so they stopped to help with the fire and some women is bringing some kids out of the building and she yells at. There's two more children upstairs. And jill run straight into the fire. Mazing greg. it gets caught up with the the woman and the children. he gets delayed. He wants to run into but he just gets to catch her. He literally catches this. So jill went straight up the stairs into this burning inferno and the stairs collapsed behind her. So greg can't follow but he's got you know rope tricks so he ropes an outcropping on the building and starts climbing up. And jill. find some kids hiding in a closet. This orphanage is terrible. They clearly have no fire contingency. And i don't i don't know how standards such things we're back in the thirties. But i would think they'd be. I don't know how many orphanages had to burn before a whole orphanages standard escape plan where everybody knew where they were supposed to go but these kids are hiding in the closet. Jill finds them and starts leading upstairs away from the fire. Maybe not the best plan but there's a very cool effect where the front of the building collapses and then we can see them running up the exposed stairs. Yes super cool. Though that was that was very well done. Which also means though that joe conc- the going upstairs so he can nose to climb up a tree to get to them so there's mama so grey climbs the side of the building on his cowboy rope. Joe climbs up a tree and gets onto the roof. And joe rescues jill.

Me industry yeah beats on them throws them around One that he might have killed he might have killed three of them but one of me throws it is clearly okay. It cuts it turns from a puppet into an actual in that somehow skidding across the floor. I don't know how they made that happen. I don't know who off camera through that line across the floor. Several lines were harmed in the making. I did notice to in that scene. That joe even saves a random person from a lion. Yes yes yes. One of the patrons being attacked by a lion and joe Saves him but doesn't kill that line i don't think and then he knocks down one of the fake trees that sort of a pillar in the club which catches on some kind of ceiling fixture and just starts to bring the whole damn place down jill in jilin greg. Come back from their dinner and from there. Make out session on and She and max and greg all try to cut the cops are on the way now and they don't want the cops to come in and get joe so they run inside greg chops down a fake tree to block the door and the police managed to get in and start shooting wyans. Yeah i i really thought to this moment like that. Joe had gone shot the way they like. Play it like the hear. The gunshots zoom and. She's like she says like no and it's like the end of like. Oh my gosh. is he dead. Yeah that's it. Yes i think they want us to think. That might have been shot. It was good i. I was concerned but we cut to a courtroom where the prosecutor is reluctantly arguing. That joe needs to be put down. The judge reluctantly agrees and the police. Apparently have nowhere to keep joe because he's back in his own basement with new bars. New bars will hold them. But later we see a little bit. We see that the chain that is holding the bars shut is very small so joe probably could broke. It doesn't matter how strong the bars are. If the chain holding them close does not equally strong. But max has a plan and here's where we see that max is much better than carl. Denham yes dead because need he realizes that he has made a mistake and that he should have left joe in africa and he has a plan to take steps to rectify the situation. Joe would joe is gonna be shot by the police in. It's his fault. it's going to be my fault. I was like woo. You did a real people. So we've made progress. I think this movie is kind of a conservationist movie in which people actually learn from their mistakes. People go and explicit nature mess it up but then realized they've made a mistake and they try to fix it so that's an improvement over khong. I think agreed then. Part of max's says brilliant plan is to get the policeman. Who is the cop. Down there tells. Joe tells jill you don't wanna be here when they come to shoot him. Go upstairs and the max comes down and just does the worst faking of a heart attack. Lewis is worse than fred. Sanford faking a heart attack. Have you ever seen sanford and son now. I have not anytime fred. sanford would get upset about something. He would pretend he was having a heart attack and he would cry out to his dead wife elizabeth that he was coming to me. My gosh. yeah yeah. Any any distressing sorta news he would be like. Oh oh elizabeth criminal elizabeth. I heard this. I feel like i have. Maybe you heard like maybe this referenced or something. So he's fred. Sanford is clearly faking. Max is faking much worse than that and the cop takes him. Upstairs allowing jill sneak down and unlocked the very small chain and gets joe out and then somehow gets them up to the street not clear how she got him past the cops. I guess there's a back door to the basement loading door or something and the the cops are therapists with max. And they're like oh we gotta go shoot monkey now. Max cuts the phone core. They go downstairs. Max cuts the phone cord and then leaves a blatant clue for them to find paper. Just laying on the floor and runs out to meet..

That joe is being kept in a cell in the basement and he does not seem happy about this and gills not happy either and she asks max. How long do you think you're going to want us. And of course he completely misunderstands because he's like oh don't worry you're working for me from now on far rattler would of course she means how much longer we have to do this crap. He's like. don't worry you got job security and then we jump ahead ten weeks. The show is in its tenth. Week at. Jill is famous and being harassed by autograph hounds on the street. Yes i think right here around somewhere right here as we also find out that she's underage. Yes that comes in the next scene when she gets inside and a great stock in joe and we find out jobs. Not eating and jill comes rushing in and he's like oh it would be gotta graph hounds again and jill's like i'm so stupid i didn't rise you'd have to live in a cage which is kinda stupid. I don't know sh- what she thought. Yeah where she thought he was going to be housed while they were in the situation but she yes she tries to quit and then a kiko denim. Nats max. Brian tries to holder to contract. And that's a point out. This contract is bullshit. she's underage. This is sort of an issue partly because the contract but partly because of the budding romance between her. And greg that frigging poser. But under. i'm not sure if they mean by underage just that she's under twenty one more that she scraped team. The actress was twenty when this movie came out. Don't so depending on how long it took the film it. She was nineteen or twenty when they were filming right. So maybe she's twenty and sign a contract. She needs to be twenty one or maybe she seventeen years post to be supposedly starts in nineteen thirty nine in the jumps ahead twelve years. The release date is nineteen forty nine in the nba de the younger is listed as age. Nine i think so jumping ahead twelve years. She would be twenty one issue. Yeah it looks like about probably about to turn twenty one yet. Looks like it was changed to twenty one in nineteen zero nine. So yeah maybe she was just twenty. Yeah so that's not as bad as it sounds right but still rig is thirty ben johnson. It's thirty one when this movie comes out. Gondolo instruments twenty when it comes out. That's hollywood for you. So but max guilty into giving him some more time in another act. You can't just leave behind dry and seven weeks later. They're still there. The sign is now a neon sign that says seventeenth week. So i'm wondering. Does he get a new. Neon sign made every an expensive just changing poster. Every week. i with yeah. But when you're twelve foot gorilla middle of the city why not. so now. We're in the club and the waiters hindi. There's a new act. The joe has a new stick. The waiters handing out frisbee sized fake money like fake pennies. That there are people supposed to throw to joe when he comes on stage because they come out in the doing an organ grinder routine where he supposed to be a monkey. She's got an organ little crank organ and he's got a little cap on like an organ grinder's monkey and people are supposed to fling panic. These fake pennies adam and if he picks the one with your number on it you get free champagne k. Stink it was horrible. Hated it was. It was and joe seems to understand that he doesn't like the things getting thrown at him but he seems to understand that he's being humiliated by being dressed as an organ grinder's monkey yeah that this is beneath him. And everybody's laughing at him as they throw frisbees at him until Joe finally says stop and well because that drunk throws a glass bottle. Oh does he gives a misstep. Yeah the the the drunk guy the guys the table of guys like asking and he's like an old cigarette lady ruins her trae cigarettes. Yup that guy glass bottle and it hits joe in the head young. He starts getting upset But we do get a moment here where we see. Max is a complete jerk says the cigarette girls concerned that that's gonna come out of her pay but maxi's what's happening until these guys to calm down in that her cigarettes are going to be on their bill maher.

"Where's that beautiful day and find out where she lives like. What so later on. Greg comes to her ranch house to apologize and runs into one of the workers are african women who is speaking. So he'll yet and again. I appreciate that she is allowed to just speak swahili and not some stupid caricature your as far as it's you know. There's still some inherent implicit racism in the movie. But as far as these things go. I think they got off a little well. We'll see worse later. But for now the africans all are treated with a degree of respect and and as individuals who have their own culture and language so yay for that rediker nineteen eighty nine. But he's finally able to talk to jail and she tells him. The josie only french she has which is just depressing especially now that her father's dead and then Maximum and crawford show up. Everyone apologizes and everything's jake now. Right and mac explains he wants to open a club in hollywood. We were in new york at the beginning of the movie. But apparently club he's opening is in hollywood rate Why why this new york producers opening a club in hollywood but there you go and he wants her joe to come to hollywood and he'll make her famous chicken. Buy nice clothes and sign right here. Baby lagat mak- lady out of you but at least the other two guys try to represent her interests a little bit like. Hey don't rush into anything it's matter you combed out and joe arrives and gets mad when he sees these guys but you'll come down with a pretty good effect where he throws bananas to him and he catches them and i think the whole point of this little scene is just to show off the effect of the her throwing the banana to him. Yes yes and then the the model appearing to catch the banana that she is thrown right and this gives o'hare his visions of his show. That's going to give millions and millions of dollars so then we Again cut to hollywood. And max o'hara's golden safari starring mr joseph young of africa or as i prefer to call it club cultural appropriation. And here we see some. Maybe not so great. You know there's the whole place is just sort of a caricature of africa and just a white guy's idea of africa. The whole place is decorated in an african motif. And there's some guys in there on drums and dancing and they're probably not out there. Probably african americans not people. He's brought over from africa. And you know everybody's just dressed up ridiculously. There's lions behind the bar the lions glass. What a terrible idea. I was actually thinking of imagine that this is real would be really cool early. Second until one of those lions just take at gnarly shit. That's right is the glass. A thousand contain lion but will contain and everyone just likes dipping their cocktails all of these rich white people. Just watch this lion. Take a huge. Yeah yeah they got to watch it and they probably gonna smell it Yeah do you really want to have cocktails at the zoo. Because that's basically what's happening here but we get a bunch of people at the bar who seem to be impressed But who. But who is mr joseph young the africa. So max comes out in his onto the stage in his safari outfit to introduce jill and mr joseph young africa and she comes out pretty dress and is at a piano and starts poorly playing beautiful dreamer and the whole audience is like what is less yet. Also do want to say Before right before she starts playing. There's this table of gentlemen that talk about how they're talking about max o'hare like what do you think it's going to be like in there like probably going to be a flop which i think just like is a nother indication that this guy sucks so you think his his previous projects have been a. Yeah a lot of who didn't come to anything. Yup that just the way that that like table of gentlemanlike talk like ooh. He's got a bit of a reputation. I see something heavily in them. When we see it it's just crap The thickest show he's put together has been kind of impressive though so yes definitely. I think that's a. That's like the wyatt so shocking. But i think that everyone was expecting it to suck. Yeah so at any second. Get i if she's playing beautiful. An amateur piano player platform starts rising. And it's rising in darkness and we can actually see wires on it at some point. I guess there must have been actually raising the platform lights. Come on and we see. Joe is holding up. The platform is the audience. Starts loser shit. They they're shocked. I but when joe doesn't go a so to speak and tear stuff up they all decide. This is pretty cool. Give them a big round of applause and Joe seems to be a big hit. Yes i do like in this point. He it looks like his. He starts getting dizzy as the stage. Just rotates he gets like dizzy is didn't notice that yeah as he's holding her up the stage starts the whole thing. He's standing on starts turning and her platform with it so the i guess he's not used to that starts getting a little so next. I guess is meant to be the same night. Max comes out. And he's had a costume changes in Now and joe's can have a tug of war against the ten strongest men in the world and he introduces each of them individually. And i realized i was like oh. My god is taking forever. He introduces each guy. They're all wearing sort of matching Leopard-print lingerie one. One strap unitards. You're sort of combination strongman and tarzan outfits that they're wearing and he introduces each of them by name and they each do some little strength stick bending something or breaking something and i realized later when i looked it up that part of the reason he does is these are all real guys the olds those are all their real names in that. Last guy was an actual boxing champion. Italian world champion boxer. So i'm sure that makes sense. Yeah that's why they bothered to tell us you to these guys were and then they have a tug of war will first Max tristate grab him. Yeah i also in the ten strongmen mountain dean forgot to tuck. Did he did. Yeah you just want to play that back place. A third of the last guy. I was like not wearing proper support under his. He was not i. Even you know had at a time or two just to like l. o. l. I did not notice that we're elsewhere and apparently slamming. Sammy mena cours mothers.

O'hara robert armstrong playing a variation on carl denham. I think he's actually doing some acting here though because he has a different vibe than. He's a lot more energetic. And frantic a zippy. And i i like the guy like him a little better than than not karl but max productions and we see him on the phone trying to make deals. He is building a new nightclub. And this slow job cow. Poke greg is in office. Trying to show his letter of introduction from tex woods grant johnson champion roper. he yes. he's hoping that he can. he heard that o'hara's gonna african. he's open. He can go to africa with him because he thinks it'd be cool and he could probably wrote some stuff in africa. He can probably rope some stuff africa. Greg is from oklahoma. Not texas of fuck you greg greg crash. That's oklahoma fucker. Yeah they specifically asked him if he's from texas and he's like no. I'm from oklahoma. We can't rope in there too and so denim realizes or does maybe doesn't wanna take him in a bunch of other cowboys davick at a rope. Some stuff but come with me because coordinates secretary. here. I'm two hours late for the dentist was a weird detail very strange hours late. Just his reaction in general to this like she's like so frantically trying to attentive and he's just like putting on his coat courtship rarely would've been waiting in the waiting room for two hours anyway so it's all fine for our own so we cut to africa. Greg has caught a lion. Some english dude is. They're helping out. Forget that guy's name something english. I think it's crawford a road. I think you're right. I think you're right. Yeah and max is sending fictitious reports back to new york claiming to fought off pygmy cannibals. High they had. That's going to score a few points on the racist meter so far too. i mean. There's some implicit colonization stuff. But it hasn't been too racist but then he talks about pygmy cannibals in a mike bears as they've been there six months then there's this there's no choice and crawford recognizes that noise and is surprised because this one hundred miles from that country and it's it's joe it's guerrilla makinson Some noise nearby. I guess carpet. It's been around. He knows what it sounds like. He knows he doesn't belong here. What would doesn't doesn't guys carry them here from god knows where the sounds of sound effects of this movie. Like joe's the sounds. A joe makes were like way scarier really. Yeah i feel like they finally got the sound. Felt like it was a scary ask. Sound like he's like actual growl and stuff but it was just like this movie. It's funny that they got it. Like the scariest sound this movie. And he's like the least scary. Yes so eighteen minutes into our ninety three minutes. We see full grown joe which is much sooner than when we see kong and tico. So that's good. I think. I think we're already an improvement. I mean we saw baby joe but now we see twelve foot tall. Joe only eighteen minutes. We had to wait for that and for some reason. Joe seems to be trying to get the lion out of the cage. Yes i do not understand what joe's relationship or thoughts with these are the entire film Looks like he. Maybe he's just trying to get him because he hates lines at first. It looks like he's trying to rescue him but the bites him and he gets mad right and turns over the k. He's in one of those wagon cage on wheels like like he'd seen it old fashioned circus wagon or on a boxes like dumbo. Yeah he's an animal cracker life-size animal cracker box and he turns it over in tears. It open and the line runs off. Yeah he obviously like tries to grab it like he's like yes it gets away it gets away which reminds me the kill count in. This movie is very low. It is possibly zero maximum. Three lions yea. I have zero question mark next bank. Count three lines are badly assaulted. But it's unclear if any of them are actually killed. Yeah all of the humans that joe grabs he just kinda like shakes around and then like throws you throw somebody in his first fight. They decided to try and capture. Joe and of course he's not having it and at one point he picks up again throws them but the guys fine uh-huh and everybody jumps on horses and there's a bunch of horse stuff that try to rope show. There's some elephants that get scared in the stampeding. A big chase. A lot of what is meant to be comedy stuff with o'hara and his horse was it. Oh yeah at all the horse the horse and they've sped up the film a little bit. Double room any whores. Don't do that. Hey come back here is meant to be funny the whole movies. I think meant to be funnier than the other. Two part of courses now funny but it's obviously supposed to be and joe who after a lot of chasing around. Joe gets a hold of max and has him at the top of small cliff in is about to throw them off and then jewelry is drawn up. Jill arrives grownups and stoute's The assault and choose out. Greg for bothering joe and it turns out that they've been poaching. Is she shields the land that they're on. Have they been pushing for six months there on safari. Maybe they're moving around a lot of locations in their candidate. They just set up camp or they've been camping there for six months. She just noticed. We'll just say look. I think it's like five. Miles is like by here. So dad died offscreen. Also six months ago so coincidence the they've been on safari six months. Her dad died six months ago. Cf seems not sketchy maximize dreaming.

Starring ben johnson greg in his first role robert armstrong as a not. Carl denham. maximum. Max mr joseph young. So that they're pulling that kong thing again. Where giving him credit as if he's a real person Mr joseph young as himself question mark. I guess so so. Let's get into the movie itself. According to wikipedia. It's nineteen thirty seven in tanganyika africa and probably pronouncing that wrong. A territory africa. But i don't remember the movie ever saying specifically wearing africa. They were yet. i don't think so either. It just says it just like pops up like the words like africa yet but the Maybe that's where they filmed it. And that's why wikipedia film politics and that's why we competed thinks that's where it takes place but this is apparently a territory under british control at that time and We in the credits opening credits. Some africans carrying packs and bundles across a river. Doing some kind of work. And then this little girl with a doll and two men come by to african men just in like loincloths with a bundle carried between them on to sticks or one. Stick this one cherry between them on a long stick. These guys fascinate me. Yeah yeah like what why. I don't understand why they don't Understand her she speaks wikileaks. She raised growing up. She's grown up on a farm. She's a little white girl. Grown up on a farm run by her father. Apparently the employee lots of the locals Their colonizers and whatnot so she speaks while healy and these men don't rights high beliefs. Why he leaves like the most widely spoken african language. there's there's hundreds of maybe thousands of languages in africa. That's why he leaves a big one and it's the one that's spoken in this territory. They don't speak it so where they coming from where they're going to and there on foot with his bundle that she looks inside and we don't see yet what it is but she wants to buy. What's inside because they don't speak swahili. She's got to get her idea across to them that she wants to buy it with charades. Yes mr aids. But i prefer this to them. Speaking some sort of tacky pidgin english agreed so she goes data some things around the house including her father's flashlight which she does not belong to her and therefore she is stealing it to buy this thing and once they agree that we find out the thing in the basket is a baby gorilla. Yeah which. I don't know why this shocked me so much but it did. When when like opens like the louisville. I was like holy shit. It's a whole damn gorilla. I asked the minister seizes the minute she sees us thing before we knew she is just so in love with that she wants to buy it. But i wanna know who these guys are. They're coming from somewhere and going somewhere one of the places. They're either coming or going too far enough away that they don't speaks while healy their. You don't know if these guys are going back home or if they're coming from home and taking the somewhere why do they have. What do they plan to do with it. It couldn't have been that important. Whatever it is because they instantly destroyed. They took him flashlight for it. I forget what we were gonna do this. Flashlight and jack. In the box and brandon trinkets are better. Deal than whatever it was. We were planning to do with this thing. But i'm wondering based on how big joe ends up becoming Which is twelve feet. Are they coming from the vicinity of skull island. But could they. Could they be coming from school island. If it's completely sunk in the last bill. I mean this is supposedly in nineteen thirty seven but could Not from scholar. There could become go in itself but are they coming from that area are they. Coming has somebody from has an ape from skull islands. How washed up I mean it would be four years later. There obviously coming from some place that has giant gorillas that. I mean that's true. Maybe they're going to get rid of it. They're like we gotta get rid of this little this little nugget before it turns into a big nugget. Maybe he's just a mutant maybe he's just a appears to be normal gorilla but he's some kind of meat and his parents were normal. Who knows who knows. But then dad comes home and finds she curls hidden the girl in his bed as a joke. The dad can see something in the bed and almost shoots joe. It's funny as soon as the dad comes. He notices the flashlight is missing for where it should be the flashlight that she stole to trade for joe. She's like i'm being so bad. This doesn't belong to me at that. She was pretty cute. She's adorable she's adorable. Shame how your life turned up. Oh will do want to mention for. This movie did get an academy award for best visual effects. Oh nice did not exist back. When kong incentive con came out right. I not sure but this might have been the first time. Something was eligible for that and they wanted to make a sequel called joe meets tarzan l. Did not do very well so they scrapped that. But i would have been on board. You would have been on board Oh yeah what a watch that. I think there might be a comic book of Tarzan meets on an tarzan meets the planet of the apes or no. There's plenty of the i think at the apes meets called and there may also be as tarzan meets planet of the apes. There's probably a tarzan meets call. But i would have been there for. Joe meets tarzan. So but the dad is like i've not raising a baby girl. The girl the girl has no friends in the senior. Also find out that her mom died. Yes yes she wants. Joe says she can stop playing with a doll in play with something. Live has has no friends. She seems to be on good terms with the workers and everything but there were no one her age. I guess is around right. So dad's like i'm not raising a baby gorilla and then cut to him raising a baby girl ask like do. It's a very typical dad. Moved to like. We're not getting this dog. Not be the one raising in falling in love with the dog. There's no way i'm putting on address. That's an after. Joke is no friend so dad decides even though he knows at some point the girls become that he let it stay around l. i. When we set up in this scene the the music beautiful dreamer. Yes she plays. She has a little piano shape music box that plays beautiful dreamer and she plays it to joe when he's going to sleep and it's his favorite song and she swears.

FEAR OF FEAR
"This lady was cautious. She decided she wouldn't let herself go and her drinking and she would never never take that morning drink. I didn't think I was an alcoholic. I thought my problem was that I had been married to a drunk for twenty-seven years and when my husband found a a I came to the second meeting with him thought it was wonderful simply marvelous for him but not for me. Then I went to another meeting hand. I still thought it was wonderful for him. But not for me. It was a hot summer night in 1949 down in the Greenwich Village group and there was a little porch out there in the old meeting place on Sullivan Street. And after the meeting I went out on the steps for some are dead in the doorway stood a lovely young girl. Who said are you one of us houses to I said, oh goodness know my husband is he's in there. She told me her name. I said, I know you from somewhere. It turned out that she had been in high school with my daughter. I said Eileen. Are you one of those people and she said oh, yes. Yep. In this as we walk back through the hall. I for the first time in my life said to another human being I'm having trouble with my drinking too. She took me by the hand and introduce them to the girl that I'm very proud to call my sponsor this girl and her husband are both in a a and she said to me oh, but you're not the alcoholic. It's your husband. I said, yes. She said how long have you been married? I said 27 years. She said 27 years to an alcoholic. How did you ever stand it? I thought now here's a nice sympathetic so long, this is for me. I said, well I stood it to keep the home together. And for the children's sake she said, yes, I know. You're just another martyr, aren't you? I walked away from that girl grinding my teeth and cursing under my breath. Fortunately. I didn't say a word to George on the way home, but that night I tried to go to sleep and I thought your some martyr Jane wage. Look at the record and when I looked at it, I knew I was just as much a drunk as George was if not worse. I nudged Jorge the next morning and I said I'm in and he said oh, I knew you'd make it. I started drinking nearly thirty years ago right after I was married my first drinking spree was on corn liquor and I was allergic to it. Believe me. I was deathly sick every time I took a drink but we had to do a lot of entertaining my husband like to have a good time. I was very young and I wanted to have a good time to the only way I knew to do it was to drink right along with him. I got into terrific trouble with my drinking I was afraid and I had made my mind up that I would never get drunk. So I was watchful and careful. We had a small child and I loved her dearly so that held me back quite a bit in my drinking career even so every time I drank I seem to get in trouble. I always wanted to drink too much. So I was watchable always watchful counting my drinks if we were invited to a formal party and I knew they were only going to have one or two drinks. I wouldn't have any I was being very cagey. Because I knew that if I did take one or two, I might want to take five or six or seven or eight. I did stay fairly good for a few years, but I wasn't happy and I didn't ever let myself go in my drinking as my son our second child came along and as he became school age and was away at school. Most of the time something happened. I really started drinking with a bang. I never went to a hospital. I never lost a job. I was never in jail and unlike many others. I never took a drink in the morning. I needed a drink but I was afraid to take a morning drink because I didn't want to be a drunk. I became a drunk anyway, but I was scared to death to take that morning drink. I was accused of it many times when she went to play bridge in the afternoon, but I really never did take a morning drink. I was still woozy from the night before. I should have lost my husband and I think that only the fact that he was an alcoholic to kept us together.
