Taking Steps to fight back with all the onslaught of things that we're facing as conservatives who are doing good things We're trying to put points on the board and push back against a lot of this nonsense so you in part with some other people just launched a group called Jews against Soros one could gather that it's Jews against Soros, but you know talk a little bit about this group Excited to launch it. Sure. Yeah, so earlier this week my good friend Will Scharf and I Unveiled this website Jews against Soros. I mean, you know, the listeners can go ahead and check it out for themselves.

Devin Nunes Did So Much to Debunk the Russia Hoax Five Years Ago
"You deserve great credit. Am I incorrect in saying that we learned very little from the Durham book report and most of the work was the work that you and cash did 5 years ago, repurposed with a couple citations. Devin, your thoughts. Well, look, I think that's exactly right. Back in, we knew this in 2017. I always like to say that when Mueller walked through the door with his pit bull Andrew weissmann, they knew there was no evidence of Russian collusion because they had none. They would have provided it to us already who were conducting an investigation, Charlie. And why do I say I know that? Well, they would have had every single bit of reason to give us everything they had in early 2017 right when Trump is becoming president right after he fires Comey, but why not give us all the evidence? And so, you know, we had been watching this for a long time, and we knew there was no evidence of Russian collusion. You know, even just in my experience dealing with Russia for many, many years before that. Fast forward, it took us only about 6, 8 months to put together what was called then the newness memo that we actually launched around the 1st of February 2018. And that clearly laid out everything. I think the only thing that we learned through his investigation is that it really dialed it in on just the people at the top. The only new names and maybe I'm forgetting a couple, but it was really the alphabet scam that went on from Georgia Tech joffe guy named joffe, danchenko, who was their phony Russian that was just a former brookings institution guy. And then the Clinton campaign operative Dolan. Now the worst part with all this is I think no one can understand why he wasn't able to bring a conspiracy charge. I think that's the frustrating part because against these DoJ and FBI rogue officials.

Charlie Calls Into His Own Show to Unpack Trump's CNN Town Hall
"Now we're about to see something very rare and special. The guest on the Charlie Kirk show right now is Charlie Kirk, Charlie, good morning. Alex, great to be here. Thanks so much. Perfect, perfect. We're working through some of the kinks of being in the new studio format is incredible here. You've done an amazing thing and you deserve it. You won the hardest workers in all of media and activism. And it is a historic day, Charlie. I know that's why you wanted to be on your show, even though you're on vacation. And I think the audience really really appreciates it. I'm very terrified to go in to see if you were able to pull away to watch Trump dominate CNN yesterday. But I got to start all I had to. So it's kind of funny, Alex, you know, my idea of a vacation is a little different than most. I was finishing off my eye surgery, which praised God went really well. So now I could see everything in great detail and you've been doing amazing producer Andrew good fabulous filling in and the team has just been doing awesome. So great gratitude and it's been a week I needed just to kind of recharge and get some medical stuff done. But yes, how could I not watch the Trump town high? I have several thoughts about it. You know, candidly, privately between our teams messages. I didn't think this was first a good idea. I was like, man, why are we even talking to these people? Why are you going on CNN? And Blake and Andrew and the team, they kind of pushed back like, no, this is exactly what makes Trump Trump and they're totally right, by the way. And I mean, I went from a skeptic to a believer last night. When, first of all, there's a couple takeaways. Just if you watch the whole thing on mute, it's very clear that Trump knows exactly the body posture to physical presence. I mean, he just looks like a beast, right? He just dominates the whole the whole thing, right? And it's just that the way the way he talks, he looks like somebody who's in control in charge and I thought he did what kind of attend that way. Secondly, I just thought he looked good. He looked like he had energy. He was calm. He looked cool and collected, he didn't get too fired up.

Rich Baris Comments on Trump's Surprising Support Among Women
"Biggest surprise in these numbers and what's your takeaway? There's a couple. And if you and by the way, I think he felt like a point, but desantis went down. I just put up the new cross tab, so desantis was at 16.6. So roughly still 17 and Trump 59.9. But I mean, he's hovering there. 60%. Andrew, and what surprised me, there are a few. One is contrary to all of the conventional wisdom you hear from desantis supporters and others, which is very simple. This is number one, gender. Trump does better with women than he does with men. Women. Republican and independent women are fueling Trump's surge and have been. Trump is been over 60. Hold on. Yeah. Yeah, no. That does not jive with any of the narrative. The narrative is, you know, I saw Ian miles Chong on Twitter said, Trump just lost women. With this E Jean Carroll thing, right? In my opinion, at his best take, I like some of his stuff, not that particular one. Wait, hold on. What happened? What happened between Trump did not do well in 2020 or at least as well as he needed to do in 2020. What changed? What flipped women? You know, a lot of it is actually and this dovetails into another demographic that surprised me because of the margin, not that Trump's winning them. But, you know, there were some working class women that did go for Biden. That's just, you know, the same thing that I've been only it happened worse to Romney, where Barack Obama did better with white working class than polls and forecasts and exit polls. It suggests that he did, or at least initial exit polls. And what happened? There are some white women, you know, you're looking at states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, where, you know, we called it the seasick voter. Trump, the boat was always rocking, and Trump really needed to hold their head while they were vomiting off the side of the boat. Instead, he was like, stop whining you, weenie, you know? So, you know, so you're throwing up, get over it. You know, 'cause that's Trump. Now though it's different. I mean, it's more like a Grover Cleveland kind of situation where it is what it is. Maybe you aren't keen on the guy and you voted for him against Hillary because you didn't, you didn't like Hillary, but then Biden you thought was kind of a decent guy. The shines off Biden now. It's off Biden now.

The Great Trump Resurgence With Rich Baris
"Are just about to welcome in rich bears from big data poll, but he has come out with some new numbers and actually revolver news covered the scoop exclusively. It looks like desantis and Nikki Haley lose ground as Trump dominates plus vivex surprising surge. Let's see here. So the question was asked if the Republican primary were held today, who would you vote for? The results are stunning. This according to revolver news and big data pull Trump scored 61% in desantis is in second with 17% down from a high of 30 one. So desantis just to repeat is had a 31% 31% approval in this same poll at a high water mark and is now down to 17, pence is in third place with a 5% vivec vivec has passed establishment Nikki Haley for 5%. Despite all of the latter's name recognition, it's just, it's just stunning stuff. So right after that big data poll came out, a second poll was released that corroborated bears is findings. This is for morning consult. Trump is up right now. 60 to 19 basically exactly in line with what rich barris had pulled. And now we have the great rich barris on the line. Rich, welcome to Charlie Kirk show. Andrew, how you doing, brother? Thanks for having me. Of course, brother. We love having you on. And you know, listen, I know you like to kind of throw a little shade at some of these other pollsters, but I mean, how good does that feel when you come out with this, I mean, listen, Vivek and basically second or third place, fourth place, and then you've got the morning consult that comes in and basically completely justifies all of your polling once again, showing you to be one of the best in the business. You know, it feels good. I'm not gonna lie. That was a softball. That was like, what flavor ice cream do you like question, you know? You know, I mean, the bottom line is here is that, you know, weeks and weeks and weeks ago, we had put up this graphic because we were actually one of the polls that were weaker on Trump support, you know? We had them at a low of 43, desantis at a high just over 30. So, you know, I mean, for the people to come out and, you know, there's always, you always get attacked as a pollster when you come out with stuff, but if it just makes me laugh because nobody ever comes back on none of these so called influencers ever come back and go, oh damn, he was right, you know? We had done this. It was a combination of bad things that happened to desantis how he handled the indictment, bumbling, and I talked about this with Charlie last time. Bungling his response to Tucker, who now is off the air, but about Ukraine, flip flopping, he flip flopped first, with Tucker because he never was an America first. And so basically, in a nutshell, you know, that's what we expected, you know, that he would surge, but that night he had gone to 60 and we put that out there and got attacked by everybody and their mother over it. But he didn't hold it, but the trend was clear.

Is Poland Reviving the Death Penalty? Jack Posobiec Weighs In
"Jack, I want to talk. You know, actually, give us the lay of the land. I mean, you are Polish, you're an American, but you are a Polish descent. My family's poorest, yeah. Yeah, your family's Polish. So I saw this news story. I wasn't going to so sorry to put you on the spot here, but I know you can handle it. I saw that there's the prime minister in my right of Poland is now calling for the death penalty to be brought back into law in Poland. Is that right? Yes. Exactly. So you got to understand that the backstory is that in the EU, the death penalty does not exist. In fact, there's only one country in all of Europe that still has the death penalty, and that's Belarus, which is in Eastern Europe, not in EU member. And in fact, Russia doesn't even have the death penalty. So I know, right, Russia. And so for any EU member to even discuss bringing this back, I mean, it would be like, I mean, it would be like us talking about bringing back firing squads or something, which I do know that I think Idaho was actually talking about this recently. So the backstory here is that unfortunately there was a horrific case of child abuse in Poland, this total psychopath where murder in general is very, very low in Poland. It's one of the lowest countries in all of the OCD. The developed countries list. And it was an 8 year old child who was unfortunately brutalized and killed. And the prime minister of Poland came out straight up and said, we should reinstate the death penalty when it comes for a child abuse. And Andrew, I got to say, if there's any crime that deserves it, it's that.

Sheriff Mark Lamb Unpacks the Apocalypse Along the US-Mexico Border
"Guest in store for you. Sheriff Mark lamb from panau county, Arizona. Sheriff, welcome to the Charlie Kirk show. Thank you, Andrew. I appreciate you having me on. Well, we appreciate you coming in and giving us an update. Just let's start with the basics here. Tell us what you're seeing on the ground. In the last few weeks, have you seen a surge ahead of title 42 being removed by the Biden administration? Have you already seen those numbers skyrocket? Oh yeah, the numbers have been up for the last two years. They continue to go up every day every month. And now we expect them to really increase. I'll tell you right now as we speak. My guy is dealing with two cars that we're traveling together down the U.S. 60 from superior because they're trying to bypass the I ten freeway where we were pulling our traffic stops. One of those vehicles had 11 people in it. One of them had 14 people in it. We have arrested the drivers, but there's 25 illegals in two cars that were driving tandem down the 60. And we're dealing with that right now as we speak.

Producer Andrew Reacts to the Arrest of Rep. George Santos
"Right, so I want to get into this George Santos thing. Listen, I don't think anybody's denying the fact that George Santos has been caught in life. He's admitted it. I think he is a liar. I'm not going to defend it. But what do you want us to do? We got to slim majority in the House. It's a tricky situation. But what I want to call out is the fact that 6 years to invest in investigate Hunter Biden and we got zilch so far. We are having to beg plead investigate subpoena just to get an inch in that case with Hunter Biden because we're being stonewalled by the Department of Justice. Meanwhile, George Santos is like a hundred, what? Four months? Four months in George Santos gets is now in custody in New York, facing 20 years and the allegations against him are just phenomenal. I mean, this stuff is just, I mean, listen, let me set the stage. Play cut 91 will lay out the charges against him. George Santos is in custody and this indictment has been on sealed. I want to give you some quick details as we're going through the paperwork. He is charged on a 13 count indictment, according to those court documents, the charges include 7 counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, one count of theft of public funds and two counts of making materially false statements to the house of representatives okay, so no clear example of this two tiered system of justice that we have in America, then this case right here. You don't have to like George Santos. You don't have to defend his lying. We're not going to do that here. But they four months and the guys face in 20 years. Meanwhile, Ilhan Omar credible allegations would suggest married her brother. She's been accused of multiple campaign finance violations, Lion up to wazoo, and guess what? She's still serving happily away in Minnesota. In the House of Representatives, Ilhan the ingrate. Saved by America hates America. It doesn't matter. We don't do anything about it. George Santos is facing 20 years for lying.

Rep. Andy Biggs Explains Why the US May Soon Have 15K New Illegals
"Further ado, I want to welcome in representative Andy Biggs from the great state of Arizona. Congressman, thank you for joining joining the show. Thanks, Andrew. Thanks for having me. Congressman, I wish it was on a brighter news that we were having you here. Title 42 is set to expire tomorrow. You know, I think our audience is probably roughly aware that this is happening. We've talked about it on the show, but paint the picture for us. Obviously, representing the state of Arizona, what does this actually gonna look like? How big of a deal is this? Well, you take the crisis that currently sits on the border today and double it. That's what it will look like. So right now, the apprehensions are about 8 to 9 thousand people a day. And we anticipate those going 14 to 16, maybe even a thousand a day, even higher. Not only that, you're going to Homeland Security, I'll just tell you, they just put out a public statement, public notice, informing the cartels of a targeted operation that they're going to do in one sector, one location, they're going to put these resources there. So guess what? The cartels now know if you got bad guys drugs, human sex traffickers. They're going to go to these other sectors because they're not going to do operations though. Of course. It's just absolutely nuts and El Paso has already said that it's a humanitarian crisis there. They do not have enough NGOs or facilities facilities to process all these people already coming over. That's how bad it already is and there's literally hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people awaiting to come through beginning tomorrow.

Are There Too Many People in Prison? Barry Latzer Weighs In
"I have a pretty basic question for you. You watch sort of some of the documentary films that come out and they sort of seem to be like a lead indicator, right? I mean, I remember 5, 6, 7 years ago watching these on Netflix about how terrible our private prisons were and how there was just a big capitalist money making greed scheme. And it sort of gave the moral high ground to some of these left wing activists that were advocating for reducing the prison population. So I'm just going to ask it to you straight and the only reason I bring that up is because I think it's an interesting model for us to follow on the right. It's like some of these take a long lead time. Some of these are 5 to 7 years out where you have to change the public perception and to get real change over the finish line. So let me just ask you a basic question. Do we have an over incarceration problem in America? Are there too many people in prison or jail? No. Absolutely not. And here's why I say this. You have to look at the crime problem before you can answer the incarceration problem, right? If we had less crime if we had fewer offenders, we wouldn't need as many people incarcerated. We don't have good alternatives to incarceration. I mean, I know that the progressives argue you have reform programs, rehabilitation programs. Well, let me just give you one statistic here, Andrew. When people are released from prison and we track them to see how well they fare after they're released. We find 83% are arrested for another crime after their freed. After their release from prison, unreal. So with that kind of number, it's hard to believe that we know how to rehabilitate people that we know how to reintegrate people so that they can be law abiding members of society. In that light, it seems to me that the progressives have to do some fancy footwork to persuade us that they have good alternatives to imprisonment or that they can rehabilitate within the confines of the prison.

Julie Kelly's Bombshell Prediction About Trump's Criminal Indictment
"I am very excited to speak with our next guest Julie Kelly. She's a columnist at American greatness, and she has been covering what's been going on with this, you know, some might call it a fed erection, others might call it a witch hunt. I don't know. You take your pick. Better than anybody in the country. She is absolutely the expert. Julie, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk show. Thank you for making the time. Hey, Andrew, so nice to see you. We text all the time, but it's nice to see you in person. Thanks for having me. Well, I appreciate it. So you have been doing humans work on this story and you've been really keeping us up today. I wanted to get you on on Friday. We text about it, but you had other things you had to get done, which for you, we will make the exception. I want to have you on today. Now, the reason I think it's important is not just because you're the great Julie Kelly, I think it's important because you made a prediction based on this case, what would happen to president Trump moving forward? It was a bombshell. I think we titled the podcast based on your prediction that day. I mean, it was quite an alarming thing. So let's just one step back before I'm just teasing that. What happened on Thursday and why is this case important and where were the controversies at? So the bombshell and I know people had a lot of difficulty and they have had difficulty Andrew with my predicting and warning them for months that this Department of Justice and now special counsel Jack Smith. I used quotations, air quotations for him. Will bring forward probably well, it will be a multi count criminal indictment against Donald Trump at some point this year. What happened Thursday was the conviction of four of 5 members of the Proud Boys, including their leader Enrique tarrio. On charges of seditious conspiracy. This is a post Civil War statue, Andrew, that had to apply to confederate soldiers or members of the confederacy who still wanted to overthrow the government of the United States.

Embattled 1st Black St. Louis prosecutor Kim Gardner resigns
"St. Louis's first black prosecutor says she will resign as Republican leaders call for her immediate ouster. St. Louis circuit attorney Kim Gardner says she will step aside on June 1st, the Democrat tweeted the news to city constituents Thursday, citing efforts by the state attorney general, and Missouri's legislature to remove her and appoint a special prosecutor. Republicans, including attorney general Andrew Bailey, say too many cases have gone unpunished, supporters say, Gardner champion police reforms, but has been embattled since taking office. She spoke with the AP back in January of 2020. This is a night ride. This is sin and a message. If you are a progressive minded prosecutor and you want to make the criminal justice fear for everyone, that we are going to make an example out of you. Judge Michael noble ripped Gardner in court in April after an overburdened prosecutor twice failed to show up to court in a shooting case. The circular attorney's office appears to be a rudderless ship of chaos. Marita shuara Jones, a Democrat who is also black, criticized gardener after a driver who was out of jail despite nearly 100 Bond violations struck a teenager who lost both legs, Republican congresswoman Anne Wagner applauded her resignation, tweeting St. Louis will be better off without her.

The Best Summer Adventure
"andrew o" Discussed on The Best Summer Adventure
"So I don't want to let them down. And that has not changed. The first summer that the first summer that we opened, I didn't know if this was going to work. In my heart, I knew it was going to work. But I didn't know if people were going to buy into it, and they did. And so the second summer, we came back, we wanted to add more. But we wanted to stay consistent. So I think that that feeling has not changed. And I don't think it's ever going to change. That I want to do, I want to put on the best show. For the audience. And, you know, sometimes I fall short, and people leave, and I'm like, oh, we could have done better. I could have done better there. I don't really blame it on my staff because I'm a firm believer that I'm here to facilitate the process. So maybe I am not doing something that needs to empower them. So they feel empowered to do things. So, you know, thankfully, this is still a growing process. I think that when you talk about fear and you not doing the best that you can, I think that there's a lot of fear for the performers as well coming in because a lot of them don't know what they're getting themselves into. And so they're trying to meet a certain standard as well. Yeah. So it's fear on both sides to try and make the show the best that it can be. Yeah. Of course. And I think 21 years is such a huge milestone. And I think it's so beautiful, but what's scary is kind of going off that is as a new performer coming in, you know, I'm sure people are looking around that shop and looking at those spaces and looking at all these people who have their now standing on their shoulders. They've created this enterprise, this magnificent magical summer experience that's so many people enjoy and they want to make sure they're bringing the right energy, the right vibe, the right talent. And I'm sure Aggie, same with you. It's like that. Always wanted to make it better. Bringing it up a notch, but also keeping in mind the traditions and the value and the love. That's poured into what the music man really is. I do, I do see and feel that that pressure of new people coming in and trying to meet a standard. Don't get me wrong. But I'm not really that I don't get disappointed when people are learning. When they are trying new things, the lipo finally goes off and they do find their voice. A lot of people will make a list of songs. We have people make song sheets before they arrive on what songs do they want to learn this year. And it's amazing how many times they put things there.
The Eric Metaxas Show
"andrew o" Discussed on The Eric Metaxas Show
"Part of the reason we do Socrates in the city is it seems very pointed to me at this time that we like to ask the big questions because I have this crazy idea that there are some good answers to the big questions that it's not bleak and hopeless and we need to provide a forum where we can talk about that kind of stuff. And I think that in the crazy types in which we live a little hope, it wouldn't be a bad thing. That could just be me. But I think having a little hope a little understanding that, yeah, maybe we have reason to hope. So tonight, Andrew and I will be talking about that a little bit. Now, in case you don't know anything about Andrew Cleveland, he's the bald guy here. And Andrew is one of these people. He's tough to sum up. He has something called the Andrew clavin show at the daily wire podcast, which is some of you are very familiar with that. But he's most known as an author as a writer, and I have to say it's very rare that I have someone here who is a writer known for how do I put this for his writing in the sense that a lot of people have a lot of great ideas and they put it into a book. But to be a great writer and accomplish a literary writer, we had Mark halperin here a few years ago, who is just at the top of the top, just an amazingly gifted literary writer. I always aspire to that in my books, but Andrew really is that. In the book, we're going to be talking about tonight the truth and beauty, he writes so beautifully that it's not just the ideas that are captivating, but it's the writing itself. And I want to say that because again, as somebody who aspires to that, it's not easy to do. And he does it very well. Now, I have never been a reader of mystery mystery books are thrillers. But if you are, you're familiar with the Edgar awards. Anybody here of the Edgar awards? Some of you, they're named, I think, I think they're named after Joan Rivers husband was Edgar. Wasn't it? Is that where I'm pretty sure it's her husband, he killed himself. And it was Edgar. I'm pretty sure that's what that is. Or I don't know. I don't know. In any event, or maybe they're named after Edgar Allan Poe. You remember the cheerful Edgar Allan Poe? I got to say my favorite Edgar Allan Poe poem. Anybody familiar with the conqueror worm, of course you are, right? Oh my gosh, I wish that we could read that tonight. But we don't have time. But honestly, to win the Edgar award in the world of thrillers and mystery, whatever. Just to give an example of who's won the award, Raymond Chandler, John le carre, Michael Crichton, dick Francis, Tony hillerman, Ken Follett, Elmore Leonard, Stephen King, nominated 5 times for the award, and won it twice into clavin. Yeah. All right. Yeah, now you're going to show them some respect, right? I want to say he's also written screenplays for big deal movies, directed by people like Clint Eastwood and starring Michael Douglas and on and on and on. The book we're going to be discussing principally tonight is called the truth and beauty. When I heard the thesis of this book, I was astonished, that anybody would try to pull off what Andrew tries to pull off and pulls off gloriously the subtitle is how the lives and works of England's greatest poets point the way to a deeper understanding of the words of Jesus who in the world may be literally no one except Andrew clavin would even think of this idea and then pull it off gloriously. Tell me why relief factor is so successful at lowering or eliminating pain. I'm often asked that question just the other night, I was asked that question, well, the owners of relief factor tell me they believe our bodies were designed to heal. That's right, designed to heal, and I agree with them. And the doctors who formulated relief factor for them selected the four best ingredients, yes, 100% drug free ingredients, and each one of them helps your body deal with inflammation. Each of the four ingredients deals with inflammation from a different metabolic pathway. That's the point. So approaching from four different angles may be why so many people find such wonderful relief. If you've got back pain, shoulder, neck, hip, knee, or foot pain from exercise or just getting older, you should order the three week quick start discounted to only 1995 to see if it'll work for you. It has worked for about 70% of the half a million people who've tried it and have ordered.

The American Film Institute is honoring Julie Andrews with this year's life achievement award. Now, we're going to replay parts of another conversation between the actress and Terry gross. This one, from 2019. In recent years, Julie Andrews has lent her voice to the Despicable Me and Shrek and Aquaman movies, and the voice of lady whistledown on the Netflix TV series Bridgerton. And on camera, in 2017, she starred in Julie's green room, a Netflix children's series, which she also co created. When Julie Andrews returned to fresh air to talk with Terry, she had just released her second memoir, co authored with her daughter, Emma Walton Hamilton, its title is home work, a memoir of my Hollywood years. Julie Andrews got her start in her parents vaudeville act when she was 9 years old. One of the reasons I really enjoy it when I'm working because I've worked my entire life. I mean, to the, to the point where I really wasn't attending school, I had to have a tutor that came and worked with me, but I really, I would love to have attended university and I had a very sort of rarefied and rather pitiful education in a way. My mother said to me, oh, you'll get a much better education from life out there. And to a certain extent, I did. But I was always scrambling to catch up on history or things that really fascinated me. Julie, you started psychoanalysis. After you were in a committed relationship with Blake Edwards, and I can't remember if this was before or after you were you were actually married. But basically the way you described it before. When you start a cycle analysis, it's like a damn opened up. I mean, you just started like weeping. And I'm wondering if you felt you had to hold in a lot of feelings and just be strong and not show any vulnerability because one, you grew up during the war years, you were living in London during World War II when you were getting bombed all the time. And you were going in and out of bomb shelters. You were blowing a whistle and literally warning people when the planes were coming when you were a child. And then your child and your touring with your parents and vaudeville performing in the show must go on no matter what. So did that kind of teach you to just like hold everything in. Yes, absolutely. Whatever it was that I'd been sort of being stiff up a lip about in my youth. And I did take care of most of my family in every sense financially and emotionally. Because we were, you know, my stepfather was alcoholic and it was not an easy situation, but there was a lot that I needed to sort out in my head and the failure of my first marriage which hurt a lot and I wasn't sure about anything and I was the wonder is that my wonderful therapist suddenly realized that what I craved probably more than anything was an education and so being a Merlin like personality. He decided to give me one and I got so many answers in terms of some of the things in life that I needed to learn. And it was a phenomenal experience for me. If I wanted to learn about astronomy or geology or anything in life, history, geography, just I could ask any question and he would be able to answer it. So Blake Edwards became your husband, but he also directed you in several films. He directed you, SOB, which was a satire of Hollywood in ten, which was a romantic comedy Victor Victoria in which about midlife crisis. And midlife crisis for the men. Victor Victoria, which you played a woman impersonating a man in drag. You know, also a comedy a woman, right? Yes, and you have a great show stopping a number in that. But he saw you really differently than the preconception that people have. I guess that having having me as a wife and are sleeping together and being a great, we were married well, we knew each other 44 years before he sadly passed away. But he was somebody that knew me very, very well. And I think I knew him very well. This was a marriage that lasted, and it was complicated and wonderful, and quite magical at times, and he was the most mercurial, talented, attractive man, and it was quite an experience to be married to Blake Edwards, believe me. But I mean, just going back to him directing you, you were topless in one scene in one of his films. There's a lot of gender stuff. It's very daunting, Terry, when your husband says, in a love scene that you're doing with your leading man on camera, he says, well, that's fine, darling, but I know you can do it better. And that's rather difficult in the film studio when you're filming it. Julie Andrews, speaking to Terry gross in 2019. The American Film Institute has bestowed her with this year's life achievement award in a celebration to be televised next Thursday on TNT. Coming up, I review season three of evil, the TV series returning Sunday on paramount plus. It's from Robert and Michelle king, creators of the good wife and the good fight. This is fresh air.

We made the decision to cover the standard installation of a level two charging outlet for our eligible Chevrolet customers who purchase or lease a 2022 bolt EUV or bolt EV. Because we're hearing from our customers that home charging is the majority of where the charging takes place. 7, 8 years ago, there weren't many long-range electric vehicles on the road and particularly not any long-range affordable electric vehicles on the road.

"Andrew, I'm delighted to have you on the podcast. I look forward to this day for a long time. You're obviously well known to the machine learning community, but can you start by introducing yourself and giving us a little bit of your background? I was born in the UK where my father was practicing medicine. That's why my family was there. Moved to Hong Kong when I was just an infant and then spent about 7 years in Hong Kong before we moved to Singapore where I grew up went to school until I came to the United States for college. And you went to CMU, Carnegie Mellon. So is it seeing me on the drive and then went to MIT to start my PhD there, but my adviser moved from MIT to Berkeley's. I moved with him, and I wound up finishing a master's degree from MIT and a PhD from Berkeley. And then I became a professor at Stanford. Who was the adviser and what was the PhD? Mike Jordan was my adviser. So my dissertation turned out beyond using reinforcement learning to fly autonomous helicopters. So I actually did reinforcement learning way back. And I should use the neural network. It was very small neural network that I trained to fly a helicopter. Yeah, Peter abele also did a lot of work with autonomous helicopter flight. Yes, so Peter was my PhD student at Stanford. So after I finished my work at Berkeley, my first project at Stanford was autonomous helicopters and P there is my first PhD student that working with me on that. After teaching at Stanford for many years around the Stanford AI lab was the director of saint via lab, I wound up starting and leading the Google brain team. So in fact, Jeff Hinton was my intern for a period of time. For a very strange reason, Kobe is overqualified to be an intern, but from giving a paperwork done at Google points of view, it turned out it was simpler to bring him in as an intern by some other mechanism. So that was fun to have Jeff on my team for a while. And he left in his comfy got quiet and that became the second time you've joined Google. But the first time he joined my team. And then along the way I also cofounded Coursera, which grew out of some of the machines learning teaching work that was doing it. And I remain chairman of course there to this day, and then had a sense that Baidu and after I left that started and then the AI. You've launched the campaign on data center AI to get people to stop thinking about building better models or tweaking models. There are a lot of models already out there. There's a lot of computer out there and the challenge now. This is the way I understand it. In penetrating the economy is to figure out ways for companies to be able to use limited datasets to build AI models. Is that a fair description of what you're interested in now? Yeah, so data center AI is the discipline of systematically entering the data, needed to build a AI system. And I think that part of my motivation for starting learning AI and then also working on data centric technology was the realization that AI has transformed consumer software Internet companies. And it's supposed to transform our industries, but if you look in other industries, anything from manufacturing to healthcare, to logistics, and so on and so forth is impact feels very early. And I think that's because the recipe that some of my friends and Arya and others had developed for AI adoption in consumer software Internet that recipe does not work for many of you other industries. I think the two major differences between consumer software Internet and many of these other industries are first, instead of having massive datasets of hundreds of millions and billions of users, data access is much smaller. When I work in computer vision problems and manufacturing, they may have only 50 images. You can have to get an AI to work with that size of data. And then the second problem is in consumer Internet, you have these very large user bases, say a billion users. That makes it possible to build one AI system, better web search, more relevant ads, something that generates massive economics. And so we figured out how to hire dozens or hundreds of machine learning engineers to build a system like that. But when you look in other industries, the industries are much more heterogeneous. So for example, a manufacturing every single manufacturing plant makes something different. And so a company that makes pharmaceutical pills will need its own AI system to inspect pills and there will be different than the semiconductor wafer where the pictures of semiconductor wafers look so different in the pictures of pharmaceuticals. So they need a different custom AI. And then someone else makes use of steel and these assert different custom AI. This is true for other sectors too. I've deployed a few systems that read electronic health records. It's time for hospital and other hospitals. But it turns out that every hospital causes electronic health records a little bit differently. It's a similar condition. Just choose slightly different medical cause. So I don't think it's possible to build one monolithic AI system to read all electronic health records in the world to make recommendations to patients and doctors. And the challenge is if every hospital has its own conventions and if thus every hospital needs a custom AI system, how can you get these tens of thousands of AI systems built without someone like me try to hire a tens of thousands of machine learning engineers to do all this work. So this heterogeneity small datasets and the fact that instead of one that $1 billion application, you may have 10,001 to.

And i think that we can build something that's going to be successful grow. And ultimately we'll we'll we'll get to sell it out to somebody at a much higher valuation later. Yeah thank you again. There's going to be a little paper on this coal today andrew. You're interested knowing as much as i can about a policy over. And i'm wondering if you could share with us some a little bit about the corporate structure and the tame behind the policy. Would you mind hearing about that sort of sure. So apollo has about honored and fifty million shares issued outstanding. There's another fifty million shares. Then i'll tell you these sixty three million shares and those are warrants that are priced wealth. Thirty five million dollar and a quarter half one twenty five and then the balancer sixty cents average so fully diluted two hundred twenty five million shares out there's a seventeen million working capital and the share structure would be management's just over twenty percent high net worth strategic investors twenty seven to thirty percent institutions thirty percent and then the balance is retail owned fantastic. Do you a do you find yourself actually going to sell it yourself and having a look at these projects that ever i do i do and i you know i. I know what. I don't know i went geology to get me in trouble and i like to put my my mountains but but i'm not that mining engineer. I'm not the geo i loved to go. Have a look. assess as there is the infrastructure. Here you know where. Where's the water supply. Are there some ranches. We can buy for the water. Is there a bird. Where's where's the water. come from. And where materials come from. What's the community like are the people are we. Can we get along with the people. Can we give them jobs. Get bill online here or you know and and yeah so touching feeling being on the ground is very important in anything you do if you. If you don't do that we've only finished this deal off in late july and we've already had six of our team on site for two weeks. So it's you don't yeah. It's very hard to manage. A distant koets caused a bit of problems that last year and a half hour slowly coming out of that and it makes for be on the ground of being close to what you do. I know that there'd be a lot of people on here. That don't really understand. But they they certainly have the pockets to invest but would like to know what type of technology goes into extraction of this type of deposit as it started the art. What what are you use to actually follow this processor. Well we don't. We have not determined that yet. We just have not decided yet. That that's the course comes from a lot of lot of metallurgical testing and from and from some pro process determination to the end of the day determine whether you're going to run a a flotation circuit and and produce concentrate that you were sal off or more if we're gonna actually run up a carbon carbon in pulp milling operation and bats yet to be determined our first. Our first step is to so what we bought. The resources are historic to us. Because there's been no independent. Verification of them in the last seven years in your world in australia resources are generally determined to be compliant. And then you can from there. You can talk about them. Your economic studies a in our world. It's called anti forty three. While one compliance and since we bought these assets from panamerican and from private holders on to the lanktree we don't. We don't have what's called a forty three compliant resource yet. Yes there is a storage one hundred sixty one hundred seventy million ounces and silver there but but that's that's our job to make that compliant so over the next three or four months. We do some validation of the data. We look at the old chick trays. Where all the chips and we are jailing as we say some of the core from the core drilling that was done if we have to put a couple of holes in to confirm that there. The numbers that we get are the same as the previous numbers. Don't think that we're going to have to do that. And we're gonna make some public statements about that very soon nearby but the reality is that we have to make these resources compliant by doing data verification and validation. When that's done then then we will start to do. Some metallurgical testing the metallurgy on these deposits is all. It's at least forty years old. And the matt work runs from fifty five percent recoveries up to about eighty five percent recoveries and i think and we think that metallurgy changed over the years not metallurgy of these deposits but that recovery methods and changed over the years. And so we're looking forward to doing some new testing and seeing what the economic upshot of all that is. Yeah that's great feedback and you. Do you have a team of geos or do you have somebody who's locally fight with the area and they understand the laser land and i involved in your project we do so. We have several. We've we hired kathy fitzgerald. She's a vp geology. She spent twenty years and resource exploration development. She'd previously came from ivanhoe electric.

There's two big chinese giant lithium companies Outbidding each other for my for eleven company started five years ago so he had a what a problem to have right now in terms of when we grow. When we're growing up. I love to just a little bit about what you can recall that fun. Memories of when you're growing up and wait was that we did you grow up. I grew up in the okinawan. One hundred kilometers east of where i live in vancouver now and and my memories were were gold panning and some of the smaller streams up in the okinawa and and coin collecting says that when you got your taste for the resources sixty i think so. I don't know sure absolutely now. We all have entrepreneurial straits and the people that are listening to this. Show today andrew entrepreneurs and i always loved to listen into the very earliest stories about our entrepreneurial pursuits. Can you remember the first who preceded that. You've had good obey. I do what i do. When i was ten years old we moved to. We moved onto the border of a golf course and and within two weeks of moving there. I was walking around the golf course. Collecting golf balls and selling them to the doctors and lawyers have played into when i never looked back. I mean i have a lot of money as a kid just from selling of yes absolutely and oftentimes bran usa. That's right on the t. And he's willing to get it back right de la playing golf i do. I don't i i do i just i don't have a lot i'm busy with no i understand now touched on briefly earlier that You know i enjoy the resources sector being drilling gained muscle for decade. You earned an organization. That now i know by sitting left to senate to ceo's and those types of businesses that that's hard work in that takes effort to listen a little bit about that experience also after high school. I went and worked on the drilling rigs in western canada. And i did that for four years So i know from right from washing equipment of bolting back together and make him not. Of course i went through university and fifteen or twenty years. Later i find myself working for a gold exploration company and in the sales and at the end of it and writing big checks to the german company and i i gotta laugh experience in a journal company up to one of so i started one and it was successful and we ran up a lot of years. I only sold my final stakeout in it three years ago and operated saddik drills across canada drilled. Iron ore copper bulbs ciller joan them. So but i think that it helps you in in in any business really being an entrepreneur and and understanding the bottom line and and how you make them successful and and and i don't think enough people understand that market sector. You know absolutely you know. I'd run so i've done ninety olson in the thirty years i've been marcus done. Ninety five of them have been taken over for their assets and and the rest of them still trade today. And as i mentioned a few minutes you know my my to lead companies in north of mobile half billion dollars. Have so much on the table when you do you do you put. I put a lot of my own money up in these things. And so as a result you know. I'm i align myself with shareholders. I want everybody in the conway including all the management and all born workers to all have a significant stake in the company. And then now. We're all the same direction because mine's a tough enough games. It is a vote the same direction things things where it really well it is. It's a harsh environment and take some tenacity. Definitely some skew to get the deposits out of the grand the halls and continue on your journey near talking about journeys. Tennis a little bit about tower came to be here involved as a co founder of apollo headed. This happen imagine a three years ago. I thought the timing was pretty good to get back into the precious. Metals trade in there have been eight or nine years of pain and and it looked. It looked to me like there was enough pain in the trade that there was gonna turn at some point and that a little bit lock the money printing around the world. And so you had to guess. Sooner or later precious metals are going to kick off and the cold the expedited that of course but but the upshot of that was boom precious metals on the on a significant increase in and running a couple of lithium companies. I know the the push that's coming in the electric vehicle space the renewable energy space and and that whole greening of the earth and and sellers component that so the real advantage to do in the silver gills that you will capture all of those things you can capture this potential big demand for the metal from the industrial sector and then the then the ensure it's precious metals side because of the money printing. Going on you've got considerable storing away of the metal so i thought it was a good opportunity a good time and and the guys that put my early shareholders in prime and in american lithium. Then would you will. Would you do silver dealing. And so i sent for sure and also two years ago and it took us. It took us almost two years to find the right assets.

Living in hong kong had a big manufacturing business over there and so on and was really supportive of me not financially sort of emotionally in terms of what i was going through and so on mickey sort of helped me through that and then ricky when nine hundred ninety seven china and hong kong merged ricky had some financial trouble in hong kong and needed to get out of hong kong. Had a million dollars left went back to japan and said i wanna start theory in japan. This was nine hundred ninety eight. I said to. Rick rick go ahead start theory in japan. Don't worry about paying royalties or anything else. I'm just starting a business. Concentrated us all your money to to make your business work and we'll catch up later as we were building a business in the us. Ricky was building his business in japan. It was a separate company. A licensee and that ultimately was the company in two thousand and three That bought theory and partnered with fast. Retailing's it to get the money so fast. Retailing put up the money to buy the company and ricky and and miss deny became partners isn't just lovely. How happenstance how. Life kind of takes these accidental turns. Yeah well you never know when or where you're meeting some one that's gonna change your life. The question is to be open and available and curious enough to be able to explore them and You know. I think one of the things about me is i am very curious and i am open minded. I mean frankly. I met my wife because i was open minded and curious in that Johnny dyer my wife sent me an email and wanted some advice on. She had a fashion company. In in in england and sent me an email just out of the blue. And i said to saw the email i said to my system set up a date with their and part of. That was what i learned from my my dad to You know you never know where the necks good ideas coming from. And so anyway set up a date. It was a date in my office. and i. that's how i met jenny and You know sort of the rest is history. You seem to have kind of like a buddhist mentality about things you keep saying. Just when you think your luck is down at actually might not be You know an auspicious moment and like were you. Did you grow up in a deeply religious household among your family is jewish or was there any of that. Yeah but am i right in my interpretation of how you just think offer way about me that always tends to look at the opportunity not the negative side of things. And i've always been that way. Ever since i was a kid. You know i think a lot of that was my mother's influence. And i think that i sort of was lucky to get the best of my mother in the best of my father. I think it's just the way i have. Do you. Wish your your could see what you've built. It's an interesting thing. Because as i was at the doctor the doctor the other day my doctor was talking about medians and that he went to a median. Median immediately psychic. Oh okay go ahead. And anyway i was thinking to myself. Oh it'd be great. If i could go to a median and that could i could speak to my father. I don't think of things well. My dad would be proud of me or anything like that. I think at the end of the day. I'll have to be satisfied and fulfilled with what i'm doing and you know my motivation is to really do the right thing in to be authentic to who i am and what i believe in what might not know about you. If if you if you don't tell me just even in like your mundane life flake. The foods you like to eat or what you do. You have a daily ritual with your family or like a routine and you know..

"The guy that had brought in to run the company and i said to him. You know i'm gonna. I'm gonna leave. I got this job opportunity. And he turned to me and he said no. You're not going to go anywhere. You're going to stay here with me. You're one of the best things we have here and You're going to run this company again one day and i my said are you sure. Have you been reading the press. And he said you're gonna stay stay with me and work together with me and I staden ultimately i Was promoted to running that. The company can and I think with that happened. I sort of had a different point of view and said to myself. I don't have anything more to accomplish here. And maybe in some ways. I wanted to just prove that my dad was right and those guys were wrong and I i left the company And interesting an interesting enough. I'm still very close friends with barry schwartz and When i see. Calvin calvin rava very nice relationship anyway. Then i got offered the job to be the. Ceo van klein. I had known the fellow that that was the part owner of the company. Part part of the company was american guide. Another guy was was. Japanese was sort of an introduction to what ended up happening in the rest of my life was away that i could get disconnected from My family's business and sort of have something. That was more my own. I was there for six years. And i suppose that i have had a desire to move the company in a different direction so we had a disagreement in and they fired me. They didn't feel really very good at the moment. You know. I didn't really appreciate it. But the truth of the matter is that it wasn't the right job for me anymore and i went off to to really pursue something that was much more authentic to me and to create something that was really my own expression. You started theory in nineteen ninety seven l. e. tahari was your partner at the time and he introduced you to a new material which really was the material upon which a lot of the company was based its lycra. Which is elastic polyurethane. Actually can you tell me about lycra. And what would the appeal was for you. I actually met elie tahari. Because when i had left and klein i had the idea that i wanted to start something on my own but i didn't know what it was then. I met ellie just coming in and advising alley on his clothing and his marketing and his merchandising and he and i got along really great we understood each other and elian. I decided to start this business. And i'm at that time. He was experimenting with a lot of fabrics with lycra and He actually made me a pair of pants. I put the pants on. And i said l. e. this the business we're going into basically. I wanted to have a company that on hundred percent of its clothes were made with with fabrics would like cry and have this idea that the world was changing It was just at the beginning of cell phones and the internet and that the office was going to be a much more versatile place. It wasn't going to be a destination anymore. It's going to be wherever you were and that people needed closed that were much more versatile than that that word so uniformed and i wanted to make A whole lot of close out of fabric lycra. I wanted them to be individual pieces that could mix and match in a multitude of different ways and that could could be comfortable yet sexy and modern and have a whole different shape in proportion lie. Incidentally did you name it theory. Basically i was originally going to start the company and call it stretch theory and came to my senses realized that maybe stretch theory is a little limited heaton. They just just wanted to make it theory. The interesting thing there is somebody else had the name registered and happen to know my called him on the phone and said listen. I wanna get this name theory. I don't see a using it. He said why. Don't you come over and see me anyway. Make a long story short. He says if you give my my wife and daughter some free close Happy to give you the name for what it cost me to register it and you should know a nine hundred ninety seven when you started. I was a recent college graduate. And i would go into your store and columbus avenue on the upper west side. The clothes were way too expensive for me. But when i could afford a piece they were my favorite pieces. Just so you know. It's funny that you mentioned the store in columbus avenue. My daughter was a teenager at that time. And i remember she's having a bad night. It was like eleven o'clock at night. And i said oh. Come on actually. I want to take you and show you the store. I wanna take on battiston avenue. And i showed the store on madison. She said dad why you take the store on madison. Let's i want to show you the store on columbus avenue and so that's how i ended up taking the store because you know my daughter pointed it out to be. Yeah anyway my personal life. In my business life where we're totally intertwined. At that time. I was raising my kids and and started the company at the same time and so if my kids had to sort of put up with with with a lot what else did. They have to put up with or contributions today. Make the interesting. I've got a cfda award a few years ago and my kids narrated a video about you know their perception of their father and you know. I remember my son having to say and daughter well. We used to spend our saturdays and sundays walking through factories or retail stores and but neither one of them ended up in the business. But i think it was a good education for them to understand what it takes to to sort of really love something. It'd be passionate about it and and be committed to it and you know both my kids are committed to what they're doing in life today. Which is my daughter said. Professional cross fifth competitor and my son is is in the music industry sort of does what i do but in the music industry which is find good talent and support them so you launched theory with ellie with this lycra component and wanting to make contemporary close for really young women at the time. At what point did you get a sense that you know what this this is getting. Traction i think that starting out. I was always a little nervous. Would this really work. I remember waking up in the middle of the night on many occasions and walk around how. How's the salt gonna come together and work but pretty quickly. The reaction to the close was was unusual. Although i wasn't confident i was going to stay in business. I was confident. I had a business really right away. The first year we did about six million dollars in business the second year we did twenty million dollars business. Once that happened. I sort of knew that there was a future future here and the response to the close was was enough. I didn't need advertising or anything that close where the best advertisement for the for a company. And did you start with retail stores or just walk me through the first year or two very different Environment back then. The idea of going directly to the consumer was not something that manufacturers designers thought about You know the business at that time was done through you. Know major department specialty stores and We sold all of the best ones and it was a much more traditional way of of of starting a business and and done through department stores and gave me the ability to without a huge investment to scale the business really quickly and incidentally the the industry you you alluded to. This was a lot different than it is. Now you.

"But again you know the the ground. The rubble of that of my drinking is the foundation for the rest of my life. So it's turned into a great gift. Well you know the same way the brat pack to bring it back to that for just a second is that it was what i perceived to be this very negative thing ultimate been one of the greatest blessings of my life you know. I could have been in the exact same movies. And if the brat pack label didn't exist we wouldn't be talking today. You know it elevated all of us and as as much as it contained us and stigmatizes it elevated us all into this kind of culturally iconic position that would never have existed if it were just simply the movies. You talk about your reluctance to brand yourself. You didn't have a word for it then but it almost was as though that article had done that for you and i imagine brandon brandon's brat. Burundi's unprofessional untrained. That was one of the things that really bothered me because one of the things that you went to brag about not being trained and i was very oh i wanted to do was trying to be an actor so it just felt like i was awake. This isn't who i am. And so i felt unseen like we were talking before about people. Wanting to be seen and heard i felt unseen. I felt for something that i was not and that and i felt utterly powerless to alter that. And that's why later. When i started writing and travel writing things i was very careful to write for the new york times and national geographic and all these outlets were respectable. So the when i was outed for being this actor go. We'll know he's you can't dismiss him because he's ii branded myself. You know. I was very actively conscious about that. And directing too. I wanted to direct good shows. So that it's you know you're very quickly you know boxton and unless you actively don't be you know what was the transition between acting and writing. Was there sort of a period in the middle where you're figuring things out was it sort of seamless was an overlap. I've successful for six seven years enacting really and then i chase it for another decade you know and i discovered Travel writing at the. You know that's a longer story. But i began traveling a lot. That book to book And so yeah you know. I wrote for about years before i actively started to try and do something with my writing because i was a terrible student school and i didn't feel i didn't feel i was smart or Capable of providing in that way. So i just wrote for myself and then eventually i wanted to do something with it and then i became successful at that because an largely because i the same thing we were talking about about directing. I knew to tell a story and you know so pie employed tools. I knew from acting. And then later that helped me with directing the notion of tell a story because in directing you to be you have to be very objective and bird's eye view. Then you have to be very subjective at the same the next moment you know so all those kind of things went together and then back to just your first role which was as the artful dodger in your high school production of oliver. I wanted to know. At what point did you know you wanted that role because it seemed like you were the opposite of a ham ham and it'd be allowed mouth than a bagel musical and that cockney you know that's like the the is role in not him. Yeah oh no no no. He's ham udal. he's very. I've been playing the same part. Ever since i mean it was the best roy ever had and i play every role this a joke but quite conman. He's not a comedy he's just very clever and observant and fessel and k and very affectionate anyway I know i love this. I'm gonna talk about artful dodger. But how did i know i wanted. I didn't when i was auditioning and someone else was going to get the part i was. I remember clearly. When i you know i'd been cut from the basketball team. My mom said. Try out for the play and i wanna be in the play. I want to be the point guard. And i tried out for the play and with that guy was gonna get it and then this other kid matthew quilty is lovely guy and he had a very much prettier voice than i did and was taller and better looking than i was so he was suddenly favored. For the part. I remember wanting for the first time in my life. That's mine and stepping up. In a way that i had no wariness of doing ever before an or ability to do before and just getting that and then of course then i stepped out on stage as the dodgers end. My life just changed. It just was like i've there i was. I think i just have one more question. Which i think i asked you already but i'm gonna ask it again. 'cause it's important. Did you set out to make us all fall in love with you tapping into wanting to be loved by every woman watching you on screen over and over and over again or was it. Just a lucky Just lucky accident.

"All the above us post but you know for my ego and vanity. I enjoyed the singular position of directing. There's no one else on the set. That's directing eso. I i think. I enjoyed having that unique position and i still enjoy that aspect of it. I like you know. I know how to work now. I've worked one hundred two hundred directors most of them not barely competent Kate a couple terrific most of the good craftsman but nothing you know most time directors particularly television or not concerning themselves with acting they just million things to think about mostly the clock and getting the and just getting it done getting together and i understand that completely so whenever i which i because i come from whenever i give attention to act shocked. Oh my god thank you for paying attention you know And i do pay attention because i cringe. I can't if i'm cringing back. i just can't take. I'm not going to tolerate i. Can't we fix this. You know you can't. I can't be cringing back there. And i have every actor neuroses. I understand them until. I'm able to help an actor and i can talk to them very quickly about how to get out of it and it always comes back to acting one. Oh one which is you came in here to get something get it. you know. it's the first thing you learn i. I've acting school and it's the thing people forget instantly you came into get ten dollars ten dollars from you. You don't wanna give me ten dollars. We have seen. We have conflict. And i'm gonna get ten dollars for their. I seduce you or browbeat you or whatever many different ways that i need that ten dollars. We're going to be fine. And i tell new actors and you know i say to jane fonda jane remember. You came in to get the ten dollars. Jesus thanks hackman. So i digress. What are we talking about is fun. Directing james spader on black jimmy. Because he's he's all the things i was talking about before he's you know he's very smart and he's very well prepared. You know the one thing that i find shocking. How unprepared so many actors are that you can show up unprepared. I find that shocking And so many are and because it's so close themselves so much problems so many problems by trying to pretend that they're not unprepared and it's just like transparent you don't know your lines here so okay let's just take it bit by bit. Then let's just call it what it is though. You didn't do your work what you can't. Of course say you know. People ask me of being acted as good preparation for directing. And i always say yeah to somewhat but really the best preparation for directing is having small children in is because you have to constantly redirect people from their own foibles neurosis into something else and you create a space and gocha. Here's the space this is. You can do anything you want in here but these are the boundaries. Yeah okay and you're mark. Hit your mark kid that and also just sort of like you. Don't tell the other actor what to do all handle that. You know what i mean. Don't worry you know one of the anyway. There's lots of things. But i i find it. I enjoyed it. And i love the technical aspect of it which was a great relief to me and it was great to me not to be stared at you know so when i started directing to not be the absolute focus of attention and yet have a unique position upon the set. I liked that. We'll wrap up with andrew mccarthy in just a minute when we come back from break has kids now kids who have seen weekend at bernie's the weird morbid comedy where two guys go on a long vacation with a corpse which begs the question.

Welcome back to bullseye. I'm jesse thorn. Our guest is andrew mccarthy. He's an actor and director was a charter member of the brat. Pack in the nineteen eighties. He started opposite. Molly ringwald in pretty in pink and in saint elmo's fire along with being an actor and director. He's now a writer. A few months ago he released a memoir called brat an eighty store. It's about the brat. Pack era and how strange and painful and uncomfortable and thrilling. It was to be the epicenter of a cultural phenomenon. Mccarthy is being interviewed by our friend and correspondent julie klausner. I'm gonna ask you a couple of questions about pretty in pink which is one of my favorite s- and i hope that your affectionate toward it. I think it's it's very clear for the book how affectionate you are towards the films. That sort of may. I was particularly happy. To see that you had affection for mannequin. For example i love. I love mannequin. I mean i'm embarrassed to say a save space. Yeah it's i love all those movies now you know it did take me years as i ran from them. You know and but i love all of them are and for different reasons but monica's particularly sweet because it's such an open hearted innocent movie and for pretty in pink. Were you surprised when it needed to reshoot. Well no i wasn't particularly surprised Surprised to a successful like you know as a wrote in the book there. I didn't like when the original ending was there where i sort of dismissed into. Don't show up for the prom with her and all that kind of stuff. I mean i thought i have to back up. I thought the movie was ridiculous. Movie about a whole movie's going to be about a girl. One go to a dance and making address. I mean this is going to hold. And so clearly i was wrong and the original ending where i was. I thought you know unsatisfying. And so luckily when they did they did the test grading and the audience felt the same way. They loved the movie until that moment and they hated the movie. And you know john hughes being smart businessman. He is said okay. Let's shoot and that's your fault for being so dreamy. Well you know. Yes naturally joking but Well that was written to be that lovable tamale. You know because. I've molly got me that part. Because as you say the movie the part was written for like high school jock jock type square-jawed broad-shouldered kind of you know that guy and i was clearly not that but molly when i went into addition molly. You know. that's the guy and join us said that wimp and the rest is history as they say. But yeah that was all molly cost us thousands and re-shoots. Well yeah i mean but it had to end that way because there's a fairytale but it was just a little fair that that moves a little fairytale so.

I'm an employer do advice and litigation work mainly representing management in everything. I basically call drama in the workplace discrimination harassment retaliation but that comes up between employee classification issues. Pay shoes you name. It and i work at a boutique labor employment firm. We have twenty four attorneys total. All we do is labor employment and benefits so very specialized a place. Where just take up one floor of a building in downtown portland. We only have one office and so we really like how much we specialize in. We are very niche. A very strong group size-wise wise for being such a specialty team so employment law. I'm guessing every once in a while there's drama in the workplace every once in a while and i'm also guessing that over the course of the last year to year and a half like it's been quite interesting for you has it absolutely. That's exactly right. I mean at the beginning of the pandemic it was businesses having to abruptly shut down. And what does that mean for. Have deal with their employees in their workforce and orders and the vendors while we were shut down for much longer than expected businesses. Had to think about while do we need to shout entirely. We actually after fully layoffs on people were just sorta on leave for a period of time. And now we're in the happier part which is Trying to reconcile cdc gyns state guidance about mass and vaccination basically how to pave the way for a safe return to the office. I said that that is interesting. That came up recently. here For my company so most people working remote. I'm in the office but we were wondering like Do people have to get vaccinated. Generally speaking to come back to the office is kind of like the discretion the employer. That is a hot question right now. And the short answer is most people think that you can say you need to get vaccinated so long as you have exceptions available for people who either have helped objections like they would have a serious allergic reaction to a vaccination or else a religious Objections getting a vaccination There's this small argument that the only reason why these vaccines are actually on the market now is it's called an emergency use authorization. Basically the fda accelerated what they did to get it on the market faster and part of that e- you a says You cannot force someone to get this vaccine because it's been accelerated hasn't gone through the process so right now we're actually in the spot where technically there's an argument that say. This is been authorized for full us. You can't force me to get it and threatened to fire me. If i don't but i've heard that it's expected to get authorization summer that that'll probably take the final argument off the table for being able to have mandatory vaccine policy if you want have it. S interesting i. I've heard people just that. I know mention that is not. Fda approved that. I think that's kind of interesting. Considering over. one hundred million americans have been vaccinated at this point..
