Voddie Baucham Describes His New 10-Part Series With Salem
"Malcolm, welcome. Hey, thank you very much. It's good to be with you. Atlas and I was very excited as you could tell to hear about this series because everywhere I go, people ask me to explain what can I read or what can I look at I'm confused by critical race theory and my first thing that I want to say is that's the idea behind critical theory is to confuse you enough so that you just go whatever and you kind of accept it. You vote have written an important book called fault lines. You deal with this. But now Salem now dot com is offering a ten part series featuring you in depth. I'm very excited about this. So tell my audience if they watch this or I should say when they watch this because I hope they watch it and say them now dot com. What will they discover? What do you what do you give them in this ten part series? Yeah, what we do is we take the big ideas of the book and we break them up into bite sized pieces, we have the video is part of curriculum. So there's actually a workbook as well that goes with it. So we've designed it so that people can get together in groups. But we want people to get together in groups, read the book, work through the questions in this workbook, watch these videos, and have the discussions that the deal marks us have said they want to have, but they really don't. That the neo marxists have said they want to have, but they really don't. That's exactly right. That's why they should be scared of you.

'Making Men' Author Chuck Holton Pinpoints the Assault on Manhood
"What do you think of all the various options we have media, social media, colleges, we have the high schools, Hollywood, you name it, what is the most pernicious source of this assault? If you had to say military terms, the center of gravity for the assault on classic manhood comes from X, what do you think is the most dangerous? Public schools. You know, if you, if you read the book, Atlas shrugged, there's a very good quote in there from a woman in the book who is homeschooling her boys, and that was at a time when that was not done. And she said, I will not abandon my sons to a system that teaches them to be afraid. And I think that that's a very good description of what public schooling is all about these days. It's lowest common denominator education. It is designed to make your kids just compliant little sheep. And to remove from them, the impetus to hustle. And I think the one thing that you should be able to teach your sons if you don't do anything else is to teach them the concept of hustle and I think public schools do a very great disservice to our kids in that regard.

3D Printed Rocket-Rocket intro and wrap
"A rocket made by the world's largest metal 3D printer is set to lift off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida this week. The terran one rocket is made by a company called relativity space CEO Tim Ellis says it's 85% 3D printed. We have our own in-house team that has designed this rocket from a blank piece of paper. We've built around rocket engines, we've built our own factory with the world's largest metal 3D printers, our own custom aluminum alloys, the rocket is only 110 feet tall, smaller than the Atlas and falcon 9 rockets. It is the largest 3D printed object in the world out of metal also. This is the first potentially first rocket to use liquid oxygen and liquid methane propellants, which are the propellants of the future for what will be reusable rockets, despite its small size, the terran one rocket is capable of lifting more than 4000 pounds into low earth orbit.

Boeing bids farewell to an icon, delivers last 747 jumbo jet
"Boeing has delivered its last 747 jumbo jet. Boeing has been very well to an icon. It's delivered its final 747 jumbo jet, which was delivered to Atlas air. Desi Evans a retired Boeing worker who worked on the first 747, said this was his first reaction. And so when they arrived of course, we were just mesmerized by looking at the size of it. I mean, he just blew our minds. Since it debuted in 1969, the 747 has served as a cargo plane, a commercial aircraft capable of carrying nearly 500 passengers and the Air Force One presidential aircraft. It revolutionized international travel. But over the past 15 years, Boeing and its European rival Airbus have introduced more profitable and fuel efficient widebody planes. I'm Lisa dwyer

'Gone Viral: How Covid Drove the World Insane' with Justin Hart
"Justin Hart, Justin. Welcome to Merck first one on one. Doctor grey, great to be with you. Thanks for having me on. All right, well, you got some great great little blurbs on the back, a good friend of the show, Mark morano, Scott Atlas, doctor Atlas, who worked for president Trump in his COVID team and also a doctor J bata charia, amazing names. Let's talk about who you are. Why are you qualified to write this book? Talk to us about you all. Why you are not insane. Well, as I said in the outset, I'm not a healthcare expert. I'm a data guy by trade. And normally I wouldn't insert myself into someone else's domain, but they seem to have no problem inserting themselves into my life. My kids education, my gym, my coffee shop. And so I took it upon myself. I had a little time on my hands to check the data. And by time on my hands, my main client has a consultant at the time of the pandemic, was a high end excursion for baby boomers. And you could imagine that business went straight out the door. So I took it to Paul myself. I said, something is just a miss here. I know how this data works. And when Doctor Fauci got in front of Congress and said that one out of a hundred people who got the disease would die, I said, that's not the numbers I see. And so I formed a ragtag bunch of activist analysts experts bombs and dads who really were kind of miffed at these policies which were keeping them from pursuing happiness that sort of general pillar of our founding documents and we took to the streets trying to understand what is happening here. And we became the key backbone arm of Scott Atlas when he was at The White House, pro Bono completely providing him with charts and data. He had nothing that The White House or that the government gave him to really work on this thing. He was fighting everyone just solo. And we worked with him on those efforts. And in the end, we just decided this is what we need to do. We need to basically arm people. And that's what this book is about. It's basically a myth busting set of chapters. Where we take everything from masks to plexiglass to asymptomatic transmission. And we give you all the data and all the stories so that people can relate this to that one neighbor that you still have that's double masked in the car alone, right?

David Sokol Shares His 'Very American' Story
"A man who's lived the American Dream, understands that we are at a crisis point right now. Chairman and chief executive officer of teton capital and chairman of the board at the Atlas corporation, David sokol, welcome in studio. I'm glad to be here. Thank you, Sebastian. So first, a little bit about yourself. We talk about your book that you've just handed me America in perspective. Thank you kindly. But your story is a very American story, isn't it? Your grandparents right up to now. Yeah, my grandparents were immigrants from Poland and lived in a lower income rural environment in Nebraska and but you know my father professed every day the American Dream and all you've got to do is pick what you want to do and work hard and nobody will get in your way. And so yeah, and that's really the premise of which Adam and I wrote the book, which is to remind people that this is an exceptional country, but we have to maintain its institutions and it checks and balances or we're going to lose it.

The Disturbing Revelations From Deborah Birx's New Book
"Deborah birx. You remember in Deborah birx. She was a kind of, along with Fauci, the most visible face of the CDC in the immediate aftermath of COVID. And Deborah Brooks has a new book out, and she also has been doing some medium with the book. Now the book was in itself has some disturbing revelations. At one point, Deborah works in the book. Admits that she got data and she says that she devised a quote strategic slight of hand in other words, a tactical mechanism of deceit, in fact she even uses the word subterfuge. At one point she writes quote, this wasn't the only bit of subterfuge I had to engage in. So she is manipulating the data, both to get around other people in the Trump administration and specifically Scott Atlas, who was the coronavirus czar, if you will. But she's also manipulating the data to exercise greater control over what the American public does. She's trying to get the American public to do things where if she will forthright with the data, they may not want to do.
THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"atlas" Discussed on THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"Yeah, that fits right in. Elizabeth Warren for that. With that thinking that obviously outside the box thinking and really, I wouldn't even give you credit outside the bus, but it's common sense thinking. I mean, what do people want? And if people want it, that's give it to them. Where did you come up with the pizza reviews? Because obviously they've become a big part of what you're doing pretty famous. Yeah, so I was about 7 years ago. I started them in Boston. Our company relocated in New York, but it started myself another guy, big cat, who's huge here. We're going to debate one day. If you're going to eat one food, the rest of your life, anything. You have to eat at breakfast, lunch, dinner, what would it be? He said burritos. I said pizza. He's going out breakfast burrito and stuff like that. So we did it. We did it for like a month. Every meal, everything pizza has eaten so much of it. People just be like, hey, is it any good? And my art, I'll score real quick one bite, here's the score. And just right away, it's what you said that you can tell what people want. For whatever reason, people wanted it. I think they were reacting to it. They were engaged with it. So when we moved to New York, I said, I'll try every place in Manhattan. I don't think I thought I'd be doing it for 7 years. But, you know, a lot of people, that's all I know about me. I don't know anything else. They think a lot of weeds pizza, that's all he does. Well, there's a lot more to Dave portnoy than pizza. And mozzarella. I can tell you that much. But I tell you, you got me in a little trouble, and it listen, I don't ever blame nobody else for anything. I mean, I live to be accountable for my own. I think that's part of the problem with the world. Now people are in accountable for themselves. They want to make excuses. But in all kidding, a little bit of kidding. Anyway, I got myself in trouble. You were nice enough to invite me on one of your pizza reviews and we did it in Staten Island. We did it in a place called doll and I can't tell you I can't go anywhere out to eat anywhere in a deli anywhere anymore without somebody coming up to me and saying, we saw you on a piece of it and said, well, I've been doing boxing for like, I've been in boxing 50 years. I mean, not for nothing. Everyone's got a little eagle. I said, I've been boxing. I was on ESPN 25 years. You know, I did other things, too, other than Dave port noise. Peter review. And yeah, yeah, but that was great. We saw you on the pizza review. And all my Friends saw you on the P and everyone in my school. And it was great and they loved it. And then what happens? I go out to one night and me and my wife was sitting there, guy comes steady. I talked to you. I said, yeah. He said, you know, friend of mine, and you know how to start on his day. You know, your friend of mine from yours, friend of a friend of ours. Who are your Friends? And he comes up, he says, Ted, you know, we got mutual. Friends. And friend of mine, he has this pleats of place you did a review, and you didn't give him the best score. You know? In the world, is there a chance maybe you could you could fix that? I said, fix what? You know, if you get a shot out there, maybe to do another one, you could give them a little better score. Because, you know, he makes her good pizza tight and your score was a little low and you know, he said, I can't believe it. Teddy Atlas came in my place with Dave portnoy. He gave me a bad score. So I said, oh, that's the game. Listen, new to the place, new park pizza. I did commit the people, it's a very famous spot. People didn't like my score. I'm getting death threats. They're like, you have a step foot around here. People think that I'm telling you, and Staten Island. I mean, everywhere, go now. Now I've been out since then, you know, I would say 5 more times. I've been around. Teddy. We got friends. I said, you too. I got a friend. And he just said, maybe you get a chance to rectify that score. I said, listen, buddy. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings. I knew what this. I didn't think a 6.8 was a bad score. I'm sorry. Oh, 6.8. What are you trying to bury them? Yeah, the score is very bad. I used to, when it started, I would go down a two, three, I didn't care about it. Yeah, I did. I took it serious. I took it serious. I was like trying, I'm thinking I'm saying, well, the source a little different. It's good, but it's a little tougher than that. All right, I'll give it 6 8. You know, I was trying to take a too serious. People were taking it back. It's kind of like the De Niro movie in Goodfellas. The guy says, he says, Daniel says to you insult to them a little bit. That's what I'm good. You know, Ted, you insult to them a little bit. Just a little bit. So with terrible now I get the only thing they come out, they watch the review of the standing there. It's like, but I gotta be, I gotta be honest, that's why people like them. That's what the highlight of the pizza review is. The highlight is that you're gonna give them the score they get, no matter what. I love them. And then they are. I'm like, oh, this is gonna be good. How did you get the old president Monaco? When I started barstool, I was in a debate with one of my buddies, just busting balls. And I forget what we are hearing about. But I was like, I think I.

The Distinction Between Aristotle and Plato and the Empirical Method
"And back with philosopher rob Koons from the University of Texas at Austin and his one of his recent books, the Atlas of reality, a comprehensive guide to metaphysics. Robert talking about Aristotle and we're talking about Plato and you mentioned by pointing a painting that a Plato is seen as identifying these forms that exist in the kind of emperor and somewhat out in the sky. Aristotle is known as an empirical philosopher. Let's start by talking about that. What do we mean by an empirical way of looking at the world and is that the main distinction between Aristotle and Plato? Yeah, I think that's right. So Aristotle gives a kind of priority or importance to the individual, particular individuals like you and me and Iraq and so on. Whereas Plato does have a tendency, especially in his earlier work, to put the emphasis on the abstract domain. So humanity in general. That's what really matters. We're just copies, imitations of humanity. Chesterton once said that Thomas made Christianity more Christian by making it more aristotelian. And the reason for this is, of course, of Christianity, the incarnation is crucially important. That God is a particular individual human being, not just humanity in

THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"atlas" Discussed on THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"With a guy like that. You can't make mistakes. Because they are instinctive. They are talented. They are athletic. They do have reflexes better than other people. So you can't make a mistake. You can cooperate in any way and give them that advantage that spot. That's all they need is a spot. So he's going to look at this Whitaker with his trainer. And he's going to say what I said. Okay, when you used to jab and you got in the right position, you did good. You backed them up. You didn't leave an opening where he could counter. And when you drove tight punches from the right position and you put defense after them, you did good. You did good, but when you stayed there a little too long. When you got a little greedy, that's when you gave them what he needed. That's not given to him again. That's not given to him again. That's why if I'm putting some down with my bookie, I'm still going out and sign you. I just, I think that he's, he's just more talented. He says more and that he's just supposed to have most of the fight is going to be in the striking area. I don't think at the end of the day, it was going to beat him purely striking. Here come close, but purely striking no. I think he's going to have to get him to the mat he's going to have to do some of that, get his hands on him and that kind of way. But out of sign is very good at the prevent. You know, he might not be a mess on a mat, but he's gotten a lot better. And he is he has improved a lot since that first fight too. We moved up. He had a lost time. Well, that's what I'm talking about. No, no. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. He's better than maybe people give him credit for, but he can. He's really good at preventive, where he can keep you of your strength is to get him to the mat. He knows how to survive that. He knows how to prevent to cut that off. And at the end of the day, I think it's going to be a really good fight. I really do. I'm going to go again. If I'm talking to our guys at my bookie, I'll tell them right now, hey, guys, listen. I'm looking at the added sign. I like him to win, but I don't know if I want to lay that much wood so what I'm going to do is I'm going to go with the ova. Over four and a half rounds. I'm with you. I think it goes the distance as well. I don't think Bobby knuckles is going to get in those kind of 50 50 exchanges where he just puts his head down a wings punches. For the guys who weren't on the show or who may not have seen our episode from Tuesday, we also have the Super Bowl on Sunday. We talked about it before, but for those who didn't see it Cincinnati getting four and a half at the rams in the Super Bowl. Who do you like? I like the magic of Joe burrow and the claws of the Cincinnati Bengals to guess the rams. I am taking a four and a half listen. I will make the concession that the rams on paper are probably the better overall team, but sometimes there's magic in a year. And I take them some magic going on with this young Joe burrow, the quarterback from Ella's you when he knows how to win. And you know, he knew how to win a national title. He knew how to get his team to the Super Bowl. I have to be in a league what? Two years. This is second year, right? I'm going with the points. I'm going with the bagels. I also think go ahead. I think if I read it correctly, he could be the first quarterback to win a national title, a Heisman Trophy and a Super Bowl. I may be wrong, but I think I read that somewhere. But that'd be quite an accomplishment in two years to win a national title, a Heisman and a Super Bowl. And I think so. I think that'd be a little bit of an accomplishment just a little bit. Especially if he can win it with sensei who's been a perennial doormat, no offense, but they've been bad. And now to have drafted to get the number one pick, take your oh and for us overall pick on top of all his other accolades to get the first overall pick, get that guy in two years later in the Super Bowl. This is like story book. This is like a movie. That's legend stuff. That's legend stuff. The way legends begin from stuff like it's hard enough for anyone to root for Joe burrow given all the things that he's accomplished, by the way. Adesanya and the over the parlay, if you take them both, pays plus plus money plus one 45. Wow. Do you have to lay a lot of wood to take Izzie at minus two 75, so the plus one 45 for the Izzy and the over might sound like good value to some people. Yeah, I like it. If you like. Yeah. I like it. I like that. That's a nice little Pauley. I love that. Yeah. Yeah, well, hopefully if Izzy does get the win, hopefully we can have them on next week and talk to them and see what's next for him and teddy, thanks for doing this. I know a lot of fans have been asking us to watch different fights. They want to hear your thoughts on all the action all action fights, and that was a good one like you said much more competitive than it probably a lot of people remember just 100%. 100% because you walk out of there, you know, seen a final result. It's so sudden and it's so dramatic and so final. And then you couldn't forget a little bit of what came prior to that. Say, oh, gee, that was, you know, that was no contest. I was one sided. Far from it. Far from it. You paid for your mistakes. Sometimes in life and sometimes you pay for them inside that octagon. And he made a mistake at the wrong time, through that one extra punch. And all the good work that he had done the prior, you know, almost two rounds went right down the drain. Unfortunately, for Bobby Whitaker, but the rematch coming up. This Saturday night UFC two 71 from Houston, Texas, there's a great fight on the co main teddy Derrick Lewis and tie two of asa. Another Aussie. That's going to be a good, heavyweight scrap those guys can both throw bombs. There will be no threat of wrestling in that fight. I'm afraid. This is what I talk about all the time when I was going to fight for the ESPN now with the podcast and everything. You always hear me say punches are born, then I made losers an example of that. He was born to punch. Oh yeah. And he's an entertaining interview as well. So I expect some fireworks both during the fight and in the post fight interview. And tied to evos is also equally entertaining fun guy. An islander living in Australia. So with that, teddy, like I said, thanks for doing this. Appreciate it. It was always thanks to the guys at my bookie for sponsoring the show, check them out at my bookie dot AG, use the promo code Atlas ATL AS.

Dr. Scott Atlas' Health Advice to Everyone Living in the China Virus Twilight

Can Science Recover? Dr. Scott Atlas Explains
"How does science recover from this when you've got the highest paid government official in America, Anthony Fauci, $340,000 of taxpayer funding for his paycheck, instigating smear campaigns against fellow scientists recover doctor Atlas. Well, it can. But, you know, by the way, this happened while I was there right behind my back as soon as I said anything at the task force meeting, there were distortions of what I said given to the media and that was clearly from the people in the task force. And the answer is yes it can recover, but we have a hole to dig out from. This is not an easy task because as my friend and colleague Martin kalder said, we've upset a large number of very powerful people, both in science and intimately related to science, meaning the funding of science. And so we need to make sure that the public is educated by block by stopping the censorship and media and in social media. That must be done. We can not have a society like that. But we also need to force these academic institutions, for instance, who are receiving massive federal funding to avoid censorship to avoid a blocking, you know, totally qualified people from speaking out about their interpretation of the data. We need to have presidents and administration leaders both at the state and federal level who understand that government bureaucrats are not the experts. Government bureaucrats can never be in charge. We need to have a large number of people come in from outside the government and add their advice just like president Trump asked me to, just like I brought in scientists from all over the country, we can not have the public somehow automatically trust people just because of their position in a government position or their credential on a piece of paper.

Welcome, doctor Scott Atlas to America first. Oh, thanks for having me. I appreciate that. So we've been tried for the longest time to get you on the show, your buddy Victor Davis Hansen constantly said, yes, you gotta get him on, you gotta get him on. We're delighted to have you on. I've got a multi page multi page resume CV bio for you, so you clearly have the cres for those of our millions of listers who may not have watched you at those press conferences.

So I am a senior fellow in health policy at a policy institute at Stanford University called the Hoover institution. Where I research and work on healthcare policy solutions, I've been doing that for more than a decade full time before that I had about a 25 year history, a career in academic medicine as a professor in the school of medicine for the last 14 years before the ten years as a professor in chief of neuro radiology at Stanford University school of medicine. And I had a previous experience and the medical science that various top level medical centers in the U.S., including iterative mania, graduated from University of Chicago with my MD degree.

Dr. Scott Atlas on Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins Colluding Against Great Barrington Declaration
"Doc read the book Obviously one of the publishers involved in the publication of this book I was blown away by it from the start So much stuff we heard from the media that it just seemed to be misinformation You expose in this book given the real trusted behind the scenes account I'll put it up on the desk here So Fox nation folks you can see it My first question to you doctor You've been a source for truth on this and sanity on this coronavirus pandemic from the start Yet others sadly doctor haven't I believe Doctor Fauci being one of them And given the recent revelations about him and Francis Collins colluding behind the scenes to politically attack the authors of the great Barrington declaration of later been proven right with some of the recommendations I mean why does this guy still have a job doctor He's been wrong consistently the entire time Fauci that is Yeah well that's a difficult question to answer Obviously I mean here we have somebody And this is the point here People Doctor Fauci and doctor birx our government bureaucrats in government positions for 40 years And the reason that people stay in those kinds of positions for 40 years is not because they're politically neutral It's because they have the skills to navigate a heavily politicized environment by making friends with their people and agencies by making friends with people in the media And basically these are essentially political jobs They are bureaucrats They're not scientists They're not critical thinkers as I found out in my meetings with them They're not open to debate and questing and using the scientific method which is basically based on the free exchange of ideas and then knowing the evidence and coming up with a solution And so it's hard to say why they have a job these people but they are very skillful at keeping it

And I always keep bringing this up about, I don't know if you remember this television show in the 90s called VR troopers. No, I'm not familiar. Oh, people that listen to the show are probably tired of me mentioning it, but there was this show called VR troopers very much in the same vein of like a Power Rangers. It was very much like a Japanese karate kind of kids show. And they were basically these kids that fought in virtual reality. And it's so interesting because I think about that time and then I think about the topics that are discussed now around virtual reality and the metaverse and how that was kind of fiction when we were kids and now it's reality as adults, which is just wild to think of. Yeah, I mean, there's a lot of things that we thought in the past we couldn't do that we can do now. And so I'm hoping that in the future, too, we can achieve the impossible what we think is impossible now for sure. Yeah. So we're recording this right before the new year just so folks know. But I'm curious to know how has 2021 been for you? Any grand discoveries or anything like that? Well, it's been pretty interesting for me because in late 2020 I had my first child in September. Congratulations. Yes, thank you. So he's about 14 months old now. So it's been a pretty interesting year for my husband and I having our first kid and he just changing so much every day and it's great to watch him grow. And doing it at all during the pandemic has definitely been another layer of challenge and adventure, but we're doing good. Yeah, thank you. Nice, nice. I guess kind of going forward thinking about 2022. Do you have any particular plans or resolutions or anything? I think the main thing for 2022 is that we really want to see our families. So none of our family is actually met our sun yet. So yeah, so I really want to get figured out all of this pandemic stuff and be able to see our families back home. Yeah, I can imagine that's, oh, wow, yeah, with a new baby, I'm sure. I'm sure your parents, another family and stuff, and then his dad's parents also probably want to see them too, 'cause, wow, hopefully you all can make that happen. Yeah. Yeah, thank you, yeah, with his age. Yeah, he's not. He can't get vaccinated. That kind of thing. And then you have older parents. And so it's not the best combination for current situation, but yeah, I feel hopeful that we'll get to see each other next year. Yeah, fingers crossed..

"In boxing Hall of Famer teddy Atlas and the great today's special guest the leader of the UFC, the great Dana White Dana how you doing man? I'm awesome. How are you guys? Good, Dana. Dana, thank you for coming on the show. Appreciate it. Thanks for having me. Merry Christmas, happy holidays to you and your family. Same to you, brother. Yeah. And for happy new year, I'll get right to it. Well, first of all, before I get right to it, I'd like to. Thank my partner here for not using the opening that he's been using. And omitting that for this one time at least a way he usually says the voice of MMA. So he usually says teddy Atlas the voice of MMA and I'm just Danny, you'll appreciate this. You can imagine the responses we get in the comments when I go ahead and now join us always by the voice of MMA teddy as the fans, the hardcore fans, they go crazy. They can't get the they can't accept the joke. They're like, is this guy crazy? Is he a moron? And I'm like, deal with it, dude. We're taking over. Teddy's taken over. Anyway. I love it. I'm glad he admitted that. Listen, as I said, thanks for coming on. And congratulations for the last 20 years of building the brand of the UFC to level that you have. Thanks. I appreciate it, brother. Man, it's pretty extraordinary. Pretty extraordinary to be honest with you. And you've done something that quite frankly, I didn't think it was possible to do. You've surpassed boxing in the ratings and you know I get a lot of people that get kind of crazy with me. People like some of the some of the network heads like the guy over at showtime, whatever his name is. And he's a jackass. I mean, you know, they get all kinds of bent out of shape. Oh, no. It's not accurate. Is that that he shouldn't be saying that? And it is accurate, because I say it within the realm that is the proper realm. I say it on a week to week basis. You have surpassed the UFC as the past ratings for regular bugsy shows. Now, look, I'm not talking about the universe where a Canelo fight a triple G what are those fights? Or if the fight never happened, but a few he had for Joshua. That's at the universe. But as far as and you guys do pretty damn big, beautiful versus when you go on those big pay per view cards. But I'm talking about on a week to week basis. You have you have leap as boxing with the rates, listen, the people that get mad shouldn't get mad at me for tone what I see because it's a simple formula. It's not that freaking complicated. You're putting on competitive fights. Every week you know you're going to get a good competitive fight with a favor. Could easily lose. And it's on a regular basis where a guy with 5 laws of 6 laws. It's not a dead sentence. Like it is in boxing. Those guys have learned how to fight. And what it means is they can compete with anybody in a freaking world. And they do. And the problem would the problem with boxing is that these networks with their promoters, the promoters really the network is like a sugar daddy for the promoter. It's kind of I ate to talk that plane in that honest about it. And that rural about it. I'm sorry. And I know people are going to be all pissed off at me. And that's okay. Won't be the first time getting line. But they go and they sell what themselves in a way that they connect with the promoter and the promoters put on a's versus B's. The house fighter would the opponent. And most of the time you know how that's going to end. Not only the house fight is going to win, but it's not going to be competitive. And people get tired of that. People don't want to go to a movie when they know what the end is going to be before the movie starts. So they get tired of it. And what do they do? They go to the UFC. So I just wanted, I was just wondering if you agree with that and what your thoughts were. Yeah, you're a 100% right. And listen, at the end of the day, you and I both love the sport of boxing. But you and I are both brutally honest about all the problems with the sport of boxing. And everything that you're saying is reality and these guys don't want to hear reality. The truth of the matter is we have the largest pay per view provider on earth. And when you talk about showtime, showtime is a very, very small universe. You know what I mean? Those guys, showtime, and all these cord cutters now, not a lot of people have showtime. So when these flights happen, they're on a lot of people that are watching them. I'm on ESPN. You know? And there's a big difference. And you're absolutely right. Every week we put on fights with the best versus the best in the world. And many times, the massive underdogs in this sport win, which means a Pena. Fun. Exciting. You know, you get these holy shit moments. And more importantly, it makes it very fun to bet on too. So I agree with everything you're saying without sounding like we're smashing the sport of boxing. We all love it. David, bugs in my life. I've been in almost, you know, sometimes I hesitate to say it, but almost 50 years of my life. I don't know what hesitate because I'm embarrassed by it. It's been good to my family. It's been good to me. I love boxing. It's my life. But you have to, you have to tell the truth. And you know what? All these problems, teddy are why we've been able to overcome boxing and beatboxing. I saw this shit over 20 years ago. I saw all the problems. And I wanted to change, you know, everything that I thought they were doing wrong in boxing with the way that we ran the UFC. You know, for the years that I had the platform and ESPN, I'm not putting a metal on myself. I got paid to do a job. But at the end of the day, I had a choice to make. Do the job get my paycheck. Get the figure out of there. Or, you know, once in a while, try to help to support it because you're in that position where you can do it. A little bit, a little bit, no hero stuff over here. But I went to Congress and I interviewed, I went to Senate and Congress I interviewed senator McCain to try to get a national commission. Where all the other majors have. To get some accountability with these promoters. To be able to just make things a little better for the fighters and for the fans where you wouldn't just have one or two power brokers in a position where now it's probably three or four. But in a position where not really caring about the sport, they only came about their little piece of territory. Not to support all. Now you listen, you're in an advantageous position. You know, I've called you a dictator before. Not a bad dictator. You know, not a guy that chops heads off or anything like that. But sometimes we need a dictator. Not literally probably not. But I get it. I get it. But at the end of the day, you know, you could call parents dictators. If they're a good parent, at a certain point, they're going to be a dictator. I mean, there's got to be somebody who's in charge. And what you do is you do it obviously for yourself, but you do it for the benefit of the sport. And everyone benefits. You want the brand to that sport to be the best again. And it has become the best because you're formula because your philosophy. Because you're in charge, because you say, hey, listen. These are the fights we'll put on. We're not putting fights on that really quite frankly. Shouldn't even be sanctioned because you get those fights too often in boxing. And because of that the brand has grown. And there's so many situations in boxing where azar a national commission would be needed to just put the sport on attract that it really belongs if it's going to be the greatest sport, which I think is the greatest sport.

THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"atlas" Discussed on THE FIGHT with Teddy Atlas
"He was in the fight early Porter, and again, taking nothing away from his effort. Brilliant have it. But he was in it because he was being controlled. He was being impatient. He was it was being enough shown enough caution to not completely make himself available to those abilities to count upon state Crawford as that he was going. He was only given him spots, but you kind of knew that it was an effort on his part to stay contained the part of port, of course, to stay contained to stay controlled to stay within himself. To not get too far out there and he was it was a battle to do that. It was, and so that's what I mean. I didn't think he was so much winning as that he was finding a way to exist. He was finding a way to survive without running. He was doing what he had to do, but at the end it wasn't going to be enough. It wasn't going to be enough to just try to find a way not to have to have a trapped on you. You know, you have to find a way to be the hammer, and he was never going to be the hammer. I'm sorry if I disappoint people put again. I try to lay it all out there from what I think as my experience of being in his business to the point of almost 50 years where I it was just a matter of time before the spider lord the beetle into the web and at the end of the day you just ain't win it. The Beatles now win it. You know, he's been a little careful where he walks. He's been a little thoughtful about what that sticky stuff up there looks. What it might be, what the hell is that? What is that stuff there? You know, he's been a little careful with, but sooner or later, despite his getting them in a freaking web. And despite a was a guy named Crawford and, you know, he if he has to fight with you in the trenches, have freaking fight with you in the trenches. But his style is to keep this a little bit and make you pay when he's got a guy like Porter, who at the end of day is one dimensional. He's gonna get to you. I mean, at the end of the day, that's what he's got to do. What I'm saying is, how am I gonna think a guy really winning? How am I gonna take a guy really got a chance to win a fight? At the end of the day, 12 rounds is not 6. It's not 7. It's not 5. So how am I gonna think that a guy has a chance to win when he has only chances attached to being an aggressive? Attached to going forward. Attached to our working a guy. That I know that to go forward. He's got to go through bad neighborhood and there's a guy ready to mug them to go through that neighborhood. How could I think? In my mind, in a way that teddy Atlas looks at things. That's all I could be responsible for. Me. How can I think that that guy could win? I never taught. If I'm commentating on a fight, I'm sorry. Something wouldn't like, but I say, I can't see how he's going to win because he's got to go through that neighborhood before the night ends. And as a guy named Terence Crawford, who's gonna mug and he's waiting to mug him. You know, and he's a good guy, terror so I'm not trying to say that he's a bad guy. He's looking among them. He's looking to mug them in a place you're allowed to mug somebody, okay? Inside a boxing ring. And that's what happened. And that's what was always going to happen to me. And when the fight was made, and so and I always talk about geography the geography was was obvious. It was the outside that had to be owned and controlled by Crawford. And the inside that had to be gotten to. And on the controlled bipolar and one of the tweets I put out there early on to rob was his aggression against counterpunching. You're getting to see, you don't, you're really getting to see a class on that. You know, when you take a class you take a video of you pay money to get a video of, you know, how do you make money, you know, in the financial world, or how to conquer blackjack? Or how to how to play Wall Street, you know, or how to be a marathon runner by can write out and rob more, all right? That's coming soon. That's coming to your home soon. I know it. So this was aggression versus catapulting. Who wins? How does it play out? This was that. This was that one O one. It was a video of that. And in this case, there was only going to be one winner counter punching, because he's that good at it. And as mechanical flaws and porters aggression and aggression is more risky. It's fun to watch. It's lovely to watch as my great brothers and sisters across upon would say, you know? It's lovely. To watch. But it's a little more risky. It's a little more whisky. I mean job Fraser made a career out of it and then of course the kind of punching alley was able, and they were close, but was able to add a tree. Again, Trump phrase you made a living at it. And then the great George Foreman was able to catch him coming. Had some common with uppercuts slowing down with jabs, you know and then so I'm just saying. You have to really have your hatches buttoned up, closed and buttoned up if you're aggressive guys going to beat a really great. And in this case, a great fighter and a great counterpoint. And on top of that, this there was flaws, mechanical flaws in short, not as hot. That in his will not in, you know, what he wanted to do, but in a way he did it. There were mechanical problems. He reaches. He leans forward. I'll tell you another thing that hurt him in a fight. He didn't use his job enough. When you come in aggressively use your jab, put bugs on the windshield like I used to always say on ESPN then I say in that over there now are they. I think they left out one alone. Of course they are. I didn't even know you want to call them fights here anymore. I thought I heard your words almost every other week on ESPN. That's disappointing sometimes, but I mean, listen, it's okay, at least saying the right things. But they don't have to take my things. They know the right thing. To me, you get just as much water what they do. They don't have to. To me, you get just as much credit when you footnote the person who came up with the saying because it's very hard at this stage of the game to come up with your own analogies in general, but if you notice, if you can attribute an analogy directly to one of your peers and predecessors, you get just as much credit for saying, hey, as the great teddy Atlas would say, put bugs on the windshield. Let some air out of the tires. Well, when you don't, it's too close. But you know, I'm not. It does get a tight. You can bother someone human beings who are not perfect. We get bothers sometimes, but such things. But in the fight, one of the things besides leaning forward that heard him and made him prone to leaning forward was when Porter did use a job, because when you press, if you least press behind the jab, you keep the counter puncher occupied. You keep them stymied. You keep his punches and his hands in his pocket so to speak. You keep them from getting off so easily. You know, you're blind them a little. And he didn't use a job. And then when you start leaning and leading, I would right hands and big punches power punches. Well, then you make yourself more available and cooperative to account upon you because now there's space. Space the mes, and space to get counted. So those are some of the things for the analysis of this fight to break down at this fight that took place. And then, of course, on the winning side of Crawford, it was, again, as IQ, his understanding of what he needed to be. That he didn't lose faith in the approach..

"Congratulations on the big teddy Atlas, doctor Atlas foundation dinner on Thursday last week in New York. Yeah, we were blessed. Thank you, successful. I mean, everybody nowadays is concerned in the New York area, I guess in all areas, really, but concerned about downsizing their events to charitable events even canceling some of them going virtual. I felt we needed to get off the floor after having to go virtual as she is, so to speak, and we needed to get out there and do what we do to raise money to help people. And so we normally put it this way. We had to everybody was talking about all the horror stories of dealing with it right now and we had to add like four tables. We were sowed out beyond sought out as I said we had to make more room. And you guys flew in, and I appreciate you guys very much. Showing why I do the podcast with you guys. You know, it's not just because of your efficiency in television work and because the words that come out of your mouth, but it's because of a club of your heart and what's in your heart. So I appreciate you guys. I appreciate everybody that came out and made it beyond successful. I appreciate all the celebrities Tracy Morgan. The great event the Holyfield, the great John stalks the great area of Hawaii. The second biggest voice in MMA Ariel helwani behind teddy Atlas. A lot of these. We had the voice. We had some good we had some good laughs about that. He said he enjoyed when I call you the voice of the voice of MMA. Yeah, yeah. He's a good guy. He's a great guy. He's he is the master out there, the voice is to some really good voices, you know, out there, of course, with MMA, but he's right up there at the top of the list, then he doesn't absolute gentleman. Tremendous respect he has tremendous knowledge and appreciation of the MMA sport that he has and he, you know, he's the man. So you guys are going to it was I'm glad you were there and I'm glad you were able to join the night as well as support the night. And I appreciate everybody. I'd say thank you to everybody. There was a recording was there. There was just so many so many people that as difficult as the environment and at times are, they found a way to be there. They got all of them at the end of my art and are there for one one collective reason to help people and to fight for people that can't fight for themselves. And will be able to now continue doing that for artists here and beyond. Because of that night because of the people's charity and does goodness of their their giving. So it reminds us, you know, I didn't know when I first started to dinner 25 years ago for the charity. I didn't know that it was I really didn't. I didn't consciously really put a lot of thought into it being a week before Thanksgiving. The Thursday before Thanksgiving. And now it's time goes on everyone knows that it is. And it becomes more clearer. It's just a reminder to me. To all of us, what were thankful for and how thankful we should be an appreciative we should be. When we are reminded right in the face of the problems that others have, the big problems and the little ones like they can't sit down with a Turkey dinner with their family that we just, I don't want to say we take for granted, but we just know we're going to do it. And so I guess, I guess there's a purpose for it falling on that day. And, you know, the Saturday after the Saturday after the dinner, we did what we always do. We had that at a thousand turkeys and all the trimmings, the people that otherwise wouldn't have it traditional Thanksgiving dinner. And I'll leave it with this. People say, you know, you're telling the purpose to it is so people don't go hungry. Obviously that's part of it, but I've got to be honest. I was thinking again, Darcy is all these people coming in to get their turkeys and all the trimmings. And as much as is to satisfy obviously a human need D as that you can eat anything. But the reason that this is important is that everybody feels equal. Everybody feels that they matter. Everybody's able to sit down and have a Turkey dinner with their family and feel the dignity that that brings somebody. That they could have everybody together, no different than anyone else. No matter what they have and they don't have on that day. They can sit with their family across the table, and enjoy a traditional dinner. And feel the way everyone should feel. On a special day, that dead together. Anyway, thank you, everybody. There's part of that. Let's move forward with this. The show and thank you guys for always being here on the show. Of course, no problem. And yeah, it was an awesome event. Hey, before we jump into things, guys, I know everyone's here. Everyone's here to hear about the Porter, Crawford fight, but just want to give a quick shout out to our number one sponsor athletic greens these guys have been with us for a long time. I credit them with a lot of my running success. I just ran a half marathon yesterday on Saturday, came in second overall, ran a 92nd PR ran one ten, which, you know, 50 years old it ain't easy to run a faster than you ran the year before, but I was able to do it and I credit a lot of athletic greens with a lot of that success. Again, I've been banging the drum on this for a long time, but these guys spent ten years with top nutritionists and doctors to create this formula..

"He was pretty much like the envy of most Parisians. Everybody wanted to spend a night in this apartment or a jealous that he had this apartment. It's actually been rumored that he was offered small fortunes for people from people to just spend an evening in the apartment. Did he ever let them into his life? How did you get in there? That's my what did you need to do to beat invited me basically his best butt? Which was Tom to Edison. And actually, if you go to the day, the apartment is still there and you can view it. And there's actually a recreation of these wax figure rings of Thomas Edison of Eiffel and his daughter. And kind of sitting around and it's believed that this particular visit that this is where Edison gifted Eiffel with one of the first ever recording devices known to man. Part of what makes it so hard to describe what an out obscure place is is it's not always about just the location. It's often about the story. What is the story? This is good because there's incredible story and this tiny piece of the Eiffel Tower that people maybe don't realize is there. And so sometimes it's like, you know, yeah, someone wrote tomorrow and was like, Big Ben, there's a little secret chamber behind the clock that people hung out in. In a second. That's exactly, yeah. So I think that's a really interesting point. I love the way. Yeah, what is it is not an Atlas entry? Michelle, how do you think about this question of? 'cause you have to look at stuff and basically say, yes or no, or maybe all the time. So how do you think about this? What I really love are places that take something that you know about, you know, sort of similar to the Eiffel Tower. It takes something you know about and put an interesting spin on it or take it to a totally different part of the world. And the starting point for one of the other places that comes to mind for me is also Paris. You know, the Louvre is the biggest museum in the world. It's one of the most heavily trafficked museums in the world, if not the most heavily trafficked. It's not exactly obscure, but what a lot of people don't know about is that there is a much smaller museum in a much smaller city in Japan. That is called the Japan Louvre sculpture museum that has over a thousand replicas of some of the most famous pieces of artwork not only from the Louvre, but also from the British Museum and the Met and the rodan museum. And they're all just crammed into this fascinating little space. That's so amazing. How did this come to exist? Who did this? This is what an amazing. Because there are lots of places that have replicas of famous artwork, the story behind this is just so weird and delightful. So this museum is actually founded by a Buddhist priest, his name is Eugene, takagawa, and he was so taken with the Louvre and the statues in it that he wanted to try to bring home a piece of it to Japan. He was absolutely astonished and according to some of the stories that I read, he loved specifically the Venus de Milo. And he desperately wanted to find a way to bring the experience of going to the Louvre to Japan and so he got in contact with the museum leadership and he kept coming back over and over again to Paris. And apparently it took like I read somewhere that on his 17th visit, the museum finally agreed to let him start a new museum include the Louvre name in the name of his own collection and fill it basically with these insanely detailed replicas that they're not they're not the sort of knock off brand things that you might see. They're not bottom shelf versions. They're right. The desktop counter like paperweight version of the Venus de Milo that. Exactly. And they're like, they're full size. They're created by museum engineers from these museums for the most part. I think only one thing in the museum was actually created in Japan. And so they have everything down to scratches and imperfections that are on the legitimate pieces of artwork. And it's so fascinating. There are flanking the entrance. I really love this picture is a Venus de Milo on one side, and then the winged victory of samothrace, on the other side. And then there are additional replicas of those two sculptures inside the museum. So when did the museum open? How long did it take him to get this? It opened in 1987. So his first visit was in I think 1965 and so it took him like 20 years 20 years like getting permission and collecting. That's incredible. You know, he has a mask of tutankhamen, replica, the bust of nefertiti, the code of hemorrhaging he has a copy of the Rosetta stone. Wow. That's incredible. I was just amazed by this guy's dedication to continue through with this like passion project. I think that's like what makes it even more, I don't want to say cooler than the Louvre, but I mean, it's on par with the Louvre. I mean, like it's this guy's particular passion project that he really spent like he's dedicated a great portion of his life to accomplishing his goal. And he did it. I think that's so commendable. I mean, I probably would have stopped after the first two trips. Yeah, also, so you could check so many things off your bucket list at once. You're like, it's got stuff from all of these different museums. You're like, oh, I've seen all that. I saw it in this tiny little museum in two in the mie prefecture. And I think that's not in Tokyo. It's not an Osaka. It's not in a big city. It's in this pretty small city in central Japan and I desperately want to go. Those are both such perfect outlets obscura places. And you know, I think it's also a good example of how anything can sort of start the thread. You can start at the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, and be like, well, this isn't, this is just like the most popular thing in its entire famous city. And then sort of draw it out and end up somewhere really, really interesting. And I kind of love that part of this work. Is that sort of pulling on the thread going down the rabbit hole and 15 tabs later. You're like, this is the thing. This is really it. Yeah. I really do enjoy these unique replicas or these unique offshoots of popular locations. I think it's what makes that special and I think it's give something for people to even go out and uncover. What can I find the next Gustav Eiffel's apartment? Can I find the next unique museum? And I just find that kind of hunt even more fascinating. Well, thanks guys. This was really, really fun to talk about. Always glad to basically talk over the philosophical rosette our own Rosetta stone of what is and is not an Atlas place. Thanks for chatting with me today. Thanks. And I always remember, if you have any tips, suggestions, thoughts, interesting places feel.

I'm just a little bit but probably wouldn't hurt them too bad Listen we have something pretty special to talk about him. We have a special podcast fun of us. Where we have competition for the throw in manila. I mean when you talk about trilogies now you know. I know we're going to deal with some other stuff. And i'm just i guess i'm just teasing the audience in a proper way to let them know what's coming over. You know it's common. Obviously they know what happened this weekend. The the slot machines will quiet it for a certain amount of time in las vegas to hear the heartbeat the very lodge heartbeat of two special men in a ring and again as i started this. The the throw in. Manila will always be there. But now we have something else to reference to and as many great trilogies face it. I mean many great jealousies But most of them the third one was in really always to trump. when you talk about ward and gatty the that i fight was never matched. It was never matched You talk about steel and corrals which to me is one of the greats of all time also. The first one was never matched but while the third one here a really really was special. And but before we go to the undercard which we're going to touch on two heavyweight fights on that and i'll let you lead me. But i just want to talk about champions and behaving like champions and for me to earn the right to be considered champion in losing. Yes and i'll get into it more later but you did to. You went over to london a week ago. I want to touch on a really quick. I i've been brought it up to to offer fans before i sent out a message to you After the race you went over there for the london. Marathon you race. In your category of fifty year olds you explain exactly specifically what is but it was a world championship. A category of your age group in the london marathon. You did tremendous my friend. You came in second. I'm not sure maybe. Wbz had some officials over there. I'm not sure. I'm not sure i'm gonna. I'm gonna ask for a little investigation. I am i really from my heart. Congratulations you made us proud. You made me proud with your effort. Tremendous time to twenty nine. I believe i was your time to twenty nine tremendous. I mean that's that's pretty incredible. And i would like i. I hope that the fans over they gave you the love that i asked him to give you because you would have asked for it but i i know you become an internet sensation. Dulling out there that people send their love out that way. But i'd like you to just give us a quick synopsis of what what that experience was like. Can you know going going across the pond racing and such a significant race with so many runners. Just give us quick walkthrough please. Yeah i always great to see so many of the fans as i was in the staging area. Now it's probably forty thousand people at this race and i was in one of four staging areas and i went to warm up and as soon as i walked out of the area to get onto a sidestreet by myself where i could just run up and down for a couple of miles to loosen up. One of our fans was there and just called ultimate. Hey ken and i was like yeah. I don't know anyone in london. I don't think that's here. And he's like oh. It's me luther. In a guy had sent me some messages on on instagram and it was just nice guy was like man. I can't believe you here. And i was like i can't believe someone recognizes me. Thank you you made my day so it was nice to see all the fans. I bought a lot of nice messages so regarding the race. Yep i lost by just under a minute. Just man. In hindsight i would of we kinda got separated from some of the other guys in the race. I thought we were all going to start in the same area and this is on me. I didn't realize some people would start in a diff- there were three distinct. Stop area so i took off. I was leading our start area at three miles around three and a half miles. I think it all merges together into one. I was leading by a lot. I couldn't see the people behind me. It was just me and the motorcycles. Unbeknownst to me there was another runner up the road. Just about fifty seconds ahead of me. I didn't realize it. So i ran slightly defensively in hindsight it had i known he'd been up there. I would've liked to have known that. So i could try to use a little bit different tactics but it's on me. I should have known that there might be a possibility that someone else was up the road. Nevertheless i am. I did the best. I could iran to just under two thirty and that guy the other guy ran two twenty nine four and yeah when i finished. I thought i won. I didn't and i'm pretty disappointed. It's a long way to go. You know i appreciate everyone. Second place is is is honorable. But i went there specifically to win. I didn't win and you know. I'm a little bummed out but that's life and if and if if you knew you couldn't fail at doing these things then i probably wouldn't have gone and tried to do it because this is what testing yourself is all about. I'm too old to get punched in the face at this stage of the game. Although maybe with some of these cards i can get back in there. But you know it was It's something that keeps me. Motivated gets me out of bed in the morning and it's something that no one else has any influence over. Just me and i appreciate everyone's kind words. I thank you and rob for all the messages of support it was. It was a great experience. And i wish the result was slightly different. But all i can do is keep it moving. I know our family of of fans supported. You're on the internet through the internet. I am grateful for that. I thank them for that. I appreciate that that love and sharing of support that they give to oz show and they sent over cross upon To you and i'm just i'm proud to have An association with defense that we have that make. It gives us a reason to do the show. I mean that's where we're at one hundred ninety nine thousand subscribers. We're going to be two hundred thousand this week and I just. I want to thank all those because without you. We're not doing this. There's no reason to do it and hopefully you want us to continue doing it. Keep passing the word brothers and sisters So we can continue to build that number but we we really appreciate you. I know we usually. We don't get a chance to say that too often but with talking about this situation with can. I just wanted to take that moment to thank everybody for forgiven us a reason to do this show and supporting it the way that you do to the level and that's a good reminder teddy guys we're at one hundred ninety nine thousand subscribers.

We're gonna do some kind of big giveaway incense him signed gloves and stuff out just I can't stress enough. How much it means to us to support really all joking. Aside the love from the uk is incredible and someone said on one of the comments recently that we have a bias against uk fighters. I'd say quite the contrary. I love the uk fighters. I think the fans come. They're willing to die for their guys. And there's no bias here we we honestly i know i could. I know i don't have a bias that i can tell you. The teddy only speaks the truth. He'll tell you exactly what he feels. I don't think that a nationality ever comes into the conversation when we're talking about a fighters abilities in the ring or skin color or anything else for that matter just as ability to fight with that said i love is love. My brothers and sisters across upon loved him loved. You couldn't have more sincere thoughts and appreciation for the really and you know whether they're making a crump. It's while making them with no matter. What would both sharing them. We have different turns to make from each other. Sometimes i'm right sometimes. They're right but at the end of the day Butter on mike trumpets little bit of preserves. On as maybe. But i i love you guys. That's it hey guys.

"What are you transplanting into? Most important when are you transplanting that auto flower? There's many skills that are simple things that you can do that make it work right. Now, don't get me wrong. You're not gonna pull 25, 26, 27% THC plants out of autos. Isn't it usually 17 to 18? 17, 18, 19. These guys are working on low 20s. Their goal is to provide a shelf product or seeds that will perform in the low 20s for auto flower. They're well on their way. These guys are really in depth. That's all they do. Hey, guys. When we get started back up, can talent health club get a hook up on some out of flower seats. We got some customers that want some. 'cause they don't really deal with consumer level. They're all like commercial. So they sell like thousands of seeds at a time, not. Maybe I could sweet talk somebody into getting some that's our owner and putting them in as. Well, we're getting some. They're sending us some PACS. And I'm going to run them according. I'm still always going to run our photos. Did he tell you what he said, do you know? Moses is a surprise. No. No surprises. So, but they do auto flower and I talk a lot about that whole subject. So if you like auto flower and you want to see it done a commercial, this is it.

"Break up your buds. It's just size. It all fucking smokes, and let me tell you, it's just stuff that falls off of the a buds. All right, that's fine. Are you trim off by accident? Oh shit. But my finger trim it. I pinch off the dark green leaves and that's about all I do. So they use them off. They use nectar for the gods. All nectar for the gods. Right. They use a 12 part cheese. I think that's what Carmen said was a 12 part yet. Yeah, good for them. It's a lot. They had fucking buckets everywhere. A lot of work. And do they use anything extra? They do use they use predatory minds so they use for preventive. But I mean like any kind of enzyme or any kind of like I am not positive. I just saw what I saw and I was talking to Carmen a little bit. I've been learning my way around. I've been asking questions just because this stuff really, really interests me. And seeing it on a large scale is really fucking cool. Thank God that you're doing that and I'm really proud of you for getting out there. It's a good flower good place. So good stuff. Glad people. Yeah. But I just wanted this just because I'm reminded I just want to say again, thanks to our patrons. Patron members, they continue to be great people. They continue to be patrons for us. I'm working on kavika giving you guys more content too. Yeah. And I do want to say real quick, I don't want to sidetrack, but if people are hearing clicks and shit in the microphone, it's my freaking headphones. I can't hear shit. Oh, good. It's ridiculous. They're supposed to be get their sure four 40s. They're great. Love the headphones, but God, this one set keeps click and click on that the one we got to bring in and see if they can. I want to put some motor oil on this bitch. Anyway, I apologize. I'll use a different set next time. But let's get into it. We talked too much. Oh, shit. I know, I know people can get bored Atlas seeds. Atlas seeds is who we brought on. Now. Maybe sometimes. Atlas seeds is a company that produces THC and CBD auto flower. Now, there's a lot of controversy with auto flower. Some people say it's not good, but some people say it's great, but some people say it's uncontrollable, some people do. Two weeks of zone. Yeah, well, not only that, but I think the one thing about auto flower is that it's its own beast. So you don't grow auto flower like you grow photo flower. And I think people get confused with that because I would imagine my guess is that most people, if not all, beginners start out with photo period flowers. And they get used to that. That's what they know. And then they jump into auto flower it will be done quicker. It'd be done quicker and I don't have to deal with the light periods and this and that. It's easier and then so they jump into it like it's a photo plant. And it's a quarter of the size. Well, or it doesn't flower if flowers too quick, flowers too late. It doesn't act right. There's definite skill to it. And there's definite things you need to do along the way to make the auto flowers perform properly. So that was a really good conversation. We actually get into that where they talk about certain things, certain steps you can take when you transplant, there's a very important steps when you transplant. There's an important steps right from the beginning of popping seeds. And those steps and those skills along the way really make for a great auto flower plant. That works like it's supposed to.
