Chuck here with a Saturday Select selection, and I'm gonna go with from November 2019, not even so long ago as the crow flies. The episode is NYC Water colon an engineering marvel. I love New York City, everyone knows that. I go on and on about that city on the show, and I'm constantly amazed that that city runs and that the trash gets taken away and the mail gets delivered and that people have enough drinking water and water to bathe in and cook with. And so it's a pretty unique situation there in New York, how they get their water, and here's that story. Please to enjoy. Welcome to Stuff You Should Know, a production of iHeartRadio. Hey, and welcome to the podcast. I'm Josh Clark. There's Charles W. Chuck Bryant. There's guest producer Andrew. This is Stuff You Should Know. Let's get busy. I'm excited about this one. This was your pick. I was like, what is Chuck talking about? Were you really? Yes, and then Chuck, I happened to stumble upon, I don't know what I was looking for, but an email from somebody who sent like a Google Doc or something that was a list of episodes we said we should do. And people have sent those in before, but this one was kind of condensed and that was on there. So I've stumbled upon your dirty little secret. I don't think that's where I got it. Oh, really? I don't think so, but maybe. I just know that I am always fascinated by not only New York City, but by the fact that New York City functions. With that many people and all that? Everything, it's just all amazing to me that that city functions with that many people, that many buildings. I want to do an episode on trash removal. Okay. I want to do one on wastewater treatment. Yeah, oh yeah. Not just New York, in general, though. That's been long brewing. Are you okay with that? Yeah. Just, I mean, we can mention New York or whatever. Big thanks to Dave Ruz, though, one of our great writers. Dave put this together and it's really, really fascinating. Dave's just an amazing human. He's great. All of our writers are amazing, for sure. Dave is great as well. He's one of a few select amazing people. Right. So the reason why New York, why anybody would ask about New York's water is because if you've ever interacted with a New Yorker, they talk about their water a lot. It's like kind of a thing in New York where they're like, our tap water's the best water in the country. And they have a lot of stuff to back that up with, so much so that they say this water is actually the reason why our bagels and our pizza are so good. Yeah, we were both just there for our final shows of the year at the Bell House, thanks to people who came out. Yes. They were great, a lot of fun. And by the way, the guy that fell asleep on the front row on night number two, I think it was night number two, I was walking down the street and he randomly passed by driving in a car and rolled down his window and said, hey, man, he said, great show the other night. Right, I was waiting for him to say, is that Freedom Rock? And I said, thanks, dude. I was like, front row. And he was so excited that I remembered. That's cute. And he said, front row. And he drove on before I had a chance to say, you fell asleep. He's like, I feel like I was there, maybe I felt like a dream too. I don't know, but we were just there and there are many, many restaurants in New York where there will be like a water cooler or a place where you can help yourself to your own cup of water. And it will have a big sign on it that says, New York City tap water in proud, all caps, underlined letters. Yeah. And they mean like they're just getting water out of the tap whereas in other cities, that's a dirty, shameful secret that people don't talk about. That's right. In New York, they proudly boast about it. And just the fact that New York or any New Yorker in the city gets water at all is pretty spectacular. It's like you said, there's a lot of people, there's a lot of buildings and something like more than a billion gallons of water flow into New York through the taps every day.

"Kevin Reuter gave us Basil Hayden and Bullet Rye. You remember that? At our show at the Bell House. Oh, yes. And he even wrapped them up as Christmas presents. That's right. Which is just lovely. Thanks a lot, Kevin. And funny enough, at the show, somebody asked us what drink we would want to have on a desert island if we could only have one, and both of us were saying gin drinks. And he was like, well, I guess I guessed wrong with the Basil Hayden and the Bullet. Oh, he did not guess wrong. And I was like, no, dude. You nailed it. We're all inclusive. Our buddy Van Nostrand, I feel like he sent us more than this. So if you have something else, let us know. We just hung out with him and his wonderful wife, Leah, in Seattle. He sent us some records. Some awesome records. Smurfs, Disco Duck, Lawrence Welk, and the John Denver Muppets Christmas. And you know what? Van Nostrand gave us books before, and one of them was about, oh, I can't say yet, because the live show's not out. But he gave us a book about the live show years ago, and I never got around to reading it. Oh, that's right. They reminded me after the show, they were like, you know, we sent you that book, you dummy. Oh, yeah. He said, I'll have to read it now. Will and Katie Lynn Lee sent us coffee from Coffee by Design. So nice. Dee Lish. Let's see. Nicole Collins, DO, Doctor of Osteopathy, sent us a copy of her book, Insight, which is on vision, like real vision, and the miracle that is vision. So check it out. It's called Insight. I thought you were going to say, DO, Doctor of Metal. I was delivered by a DO. And one of the things they do is they adjust you, like you're a baby, and they adjust you like a chiropractor when you're born. I was born breach, so the DO adjusted me in reverse order, and apparently everyone in the delivery room gave him a golf clap afterward. And you waved your hand and said, thank you, everyone. Yeah, thank you. I have a taste for this applause thing now. Fart, gurgled fart. Indigo Proof from Portland sent me a gift certificate for one free denim repair. Nice. Because I complained about my Levi's blowing out. So they said, send me those jeans, and we'll fix them for you. Yep. That's Indigo Proof in, where else do they fix jeans? Portland, Oregon. That is a jean fix in town, for sure. I've got a super old one from not this past October, but the October before last, Chuck. Wow. Do you remember Kathy with a Kay Tosh at, I believe, our Phoenix show, or our Salt Lake City show? One of the two. What are you talking about? Gave us lassos. Yeah. Real live lassos. Rope and rope. And she said, go on to YouTube and learn how to lasso now. Yeah. And I've yet to do that, but I still have my lasso. So thanks a lot, Kathy. Me too. We appreciate you. Yeah, it's not only cool, because I will try and learn that one day, but it looks cool hanging on a wall. For sure. And also, I think Kathy is a postal worker, so hopefully she dug our going postal episode. I haven't heard from her. That's right. Email us, Kathy, and let us know how we did. I have a correction to read, but I'll just wait for listener mail for that one. Oh, yeah. I think that was me. That was my bad. Was it just you? I think so. Somebody else made it seem like it was me too.

Well, I grew up listening to a lot of Billy Joel, and my dad played a lot of Billy Joel in places like the empire diner. And beman's or Elaine's and stuff. And so that was always a big crowd pleaser. And my dad would say he would do that before his break because people, people love to do that. So he would get a lot of tips. When he do that song, then he'd go and when it was done, he would stop and be like, 'cause I'm and then everyone go moving out. He'd be like, all right, everybody, tip your waitress.

But I saw you recently at the bell house and you did a show that was made up of covers like this. Yeah, it's more of a concert than a comedy show. Where did the impetus to do that come from? Again, I started doing this about a year and a half ago, and oddly oddly enough, this is very Hollywood, but I started doing it after the HBO discovery merger.

Trust me. I love that. So where shall we start this? Talk to me. We know each other from back in the day. Back in the day. I think I was on med TV when I came on. Correct. Yeah. And back then, Adam and I was doing loveline at MTV. And you guys would come in, at least once a year, usually towards the end of your season because it was on the same set. Yes. Same studios. That's right. And you would announce every year were canceled. This is it. This is the last time we're done. When the writers strike happened, I remember just thinking, I was at the time getting married, which I no longer married. But I remember I was planning a wedding that I had committed to pay quite a bit for. And I was like, there's no way mad TV is gonna make it through a writer's strike. I made fiscal decisions and there was absolute and somehow we just kept going. You know what's funny? I've become pretty good friends with Bobby Lee. I love that. What a rascal. Rascal. And I always give him shit about the time. Who is the wait a minute? Who's face did he sit on and fart on their face? And it caused a scandal. I mean, I can't even to be honest with you. It didn't even register for me because I've seen him. To me, that's nothing. I'm so numb the idea that that would be a scandal. Okay, got it. So low on the priority list. Yeah, so he was a flanagan. There's no way she would be mad about that. Well, we've made a cry made her cry. He really let one go. I saw it. I heard he put an alka seltzer tab up his ass as like a dare with Ike barinholtz and Katie Levine to see what would actually happen and apparently sounds like Bobby. It rocketed out of his ass and then with a little apparently like a little piece of his intestine came out. He prolapsed like a little piece of intense rocketed out and he like, again, I don't think in 2023 you could thank you for this tidbit of Bobby Lee history because I will use it. I assure you. The history is so replete with craziness. It's hard to pick out the little joyous elements like this. There's something about that. He's so adorable. Yes, yes. You can not hold a grudge at by the way. I had a really funny moment with him and his ex-wife. And she was talking about the first time. I don't know if this will as a story will play the way it did in the moment. Yeah. But she goes, you know, first time we had sex, I was a fan of Bobby, and I was thinking, holy shit, Bobby Lee's inside of me. And I thought, yeah, same thing for me. I had the same exact experience. That's exactly right. He's going to get as tight of you. Bobby, Bobby Lee. So let's talk about what's upcoming for you. Okay, you're going to be in marvelous, misses maisel, which I want to hear about because I'm jealous that you got to do that. It was exciting. I bet.

She's not doing stand up at all. I don't care. She was a friend. I know. It's like weird. People have gotten very weird camps and feelings and stuff that are not I think. I think why else not respond? You know what? I don't know. I can't speak for her. I can't even imagine. Some people will exclude me just by virtue of being friends and part of Adam Carolina.

We've linked to all the ticket links in our show notes, and you can also find more information on our website. I can't wait to see you there. Okay, now that we've had a fun trip down weird transplant story lane, let's get back to the science. I know, I know science, yuck, but I promise I'll try to make you laugh. The majority of those in the scientific community think of cellular memory as junk science, mostly because there's nowhere near enough evidence for it. And there's no way so far to prove any of it. The studies that show evidence of cellular memory detractors say are biased and participants are chosen to prove the researchers hypothesis. For example, pure salt paper presents ten cases, but that's from a pool of a 150 participants. I'm no statistician, but that doesn't seem like great evidence. If you want to tell me that nearly half the participants inherited memories from their donors, I'll buy you a drink and we can chat. But 6 and a half percent, I'm not even going to buy you a cup of coffee over 6 and a half percent. A 1992 study done by the university of Melbourne puts it this way. Quote, 1242 organ transplants were performed in Australia in 2015 alone. So the small number of reported cases of personality changes due to organ transplants in history worldwide raises doubts about the validity of cellular memory. That was also the paper that interviewed 47 transplant recipients and only found three people or 6% who reported any changes in behavior. Anyone who has ever had the pleasure of listening to a conspiracy theorist tell you that there's a cabal of lizard people that live underground and eat children, will know that you can find evidence for anything you want if you look hard enough, bend the facts and are willing to connect dots that have no business being connected. However, there are some possible scientific explanations that could point to the existence of cellular memory. In 1994, doctor Andrew armor, a neuro radiologist, theorized that the heart has a brain of its own in the form of the nervous system. Anyone who's ever felt their heart rate increase while watching a scary movie can tell you that even though their brain knows the danger isn't real, their nervous system acts on its own. Doctor armor believed that the nervous system could be responsible for the transfer of memory from organ donor to recipient. Another theory is about neuropeptides which are like little messengers released from the brain that communicate with the rest of the body. Apparently, neuropeptides have been found in some hearts, which could also help explain memory transfer. And then there's something about the magnetic field, which I completely do not understand, so I will just quote it from an article titled memory transference in organ transplant recipients from the journal of new approaches to medicine and health, and let you do what you will with it. Quote, cells in the heart have a unique magnetic property and respond to and interact with magnetic fields. There may be an as yet undiscovered electromagnetic connection between the brain and heart, expressed in a form of energy that contains some level of cellular memory. And then there's more metaphysical theories having to do with the spirit and the soul, which intersects with remembering past life experiences. The article from the journal of new approaches to medicine and health says, quote, if plants and inanimate objects can store our feelings and thoughts, it is possible that our body organs, which are more intimately connected to us, also contain our emotional imprints. What kind of plants do those guys have and where can I get one? Could you imagine being able to whisper your secrets to a plant for safekeeping? I mean, you totally could do that, but imagine later on being able to go back and be like, hey, peace Lily Tomlin remind me what I told you about my ex 5 years ago before I drunk text them again? There is some quantifiable science in the form of a study on sea slugs that some information is stored within the neurons cell body. Apparently, researchers at UCLA found they could erase a sea slug's long-term memory, which I guess they gauged by then asking the sea slug. Now, tell me about your mother and the sea slug was like my who? But then the memory quote reformed with only a small reminder stimulus again suggesting that some information was being stored in a neuron's body. Because then the slug was like, oh, my mother, man, that lady just oozed charm. Thank you. The principal investigator on the sea slug study uses the analogy that if Chopin had lost his fingers, he would still know how to play sonatas. He wouldn't be able to, obviously, but he would still know how to. This doesn't make sense to me. I don't know how it proves that memories live in the cells. It seems to me the argument

"15,000 signatures is really not a lot of signatures, especially considering that spiritualism had between one and 2 million followers by their own estimate, according to history net dot com, I should add. One wonders why the other nearly 1 million to 1.9 million followers didn't sign the petition. But, as any TikTok influencer will tell you, the faster your star rises, the quicker it can burn out. By 1855, a number of prominent American scientists, writers and thinkers, new year's resolution, figure out how to get paid to just think. We're warning against the rapid rise of this spiritual movement. Prominent transcendentalist writer Ralph Waldo Emerson of where's Waldo fame. That's a joke. Called it a rat revolution. And while I have no idea what that means, I think it's safe to say it's not very positive. People in general don't want to be associated with rodents, which is why I will never understand the popularity of the Disney film ratatouille. Here come the angry DMs. The founding editor of a little paper called The New York Times, Henry Raymond, said spiritualism. How an appeal that is whiter, stronger, and deeper than any philosophical or socialistic theory, since it appeals to the marvelous man. In 5 years it has spread like wildfire over this continent, so that there is scarcely a village without its mediums and its miracles. If it be a delusion, it has misread very many of the intelligent as well as the ignorant. But journalist Edward white of the Paris review thinks these mustachioed cravat and men may have been less concerned with the message of spiritualism than they were with the messenger of spiritualism. Never before had a western religion been spearheaded by women. That fact alone probably gave them the willies, but add to that that some of these women were actually making a good living, peddling these performances and seances, and they didn't need a man to help them with it. Gasp. This was in the Victorian era, remember when the general mood was that a woman's role is in the home, creating a godly space to which her naturally barbaric husband, who necessarily had to go out and be ungodly in the name of capitalism, could find shelter and solace and be swaddled in the tenants of the church via his wife's housekeeping, cooking and sexual compliance. We couldn't have women running around and doing things like being self reliant. What would be next? Demanding a living wage only having sex when they wanted to, having sex with someone. Other than men? Yes, the answer to all those questions is yes. Gender roles were a super big deal at this time, and spiritualism was threatening the natural order. In his piece in the Paris review, white wrote, quote, before the hydesville wrapping, Leah had been a single mother, hampered by the ubiquitous social restrictions that came with being born female. In the field of spirit mediumship, a branch of the entertainment industry that she more than anyone else had helped to invent, women dominated. She acquired wealth, social clout, and opportunities that would never usually have been afforded to someone of her background. Over the next decade, she became a venerable society lady and the wife of a Wall Street banker. I mean, at least she didn't go around kissing girls and wearing pants. Anyway. All this pushback the sisters battled would come to a head not only due to the culture war on spiritualism, but the chaos of their personal life, too. Its life that would eventually kill their spirit for good. Strangers don't forget strange and unexplained is taking its act on the road with a quick, east coast tour of New York, Boston, and D.C..

We've linked to all the ticket links in the show notes here, and you can also find more information on our website. See you there. In the fall of 1852, a renowned Arctic explorer named doctor Alicia Cain strolled through the lobby of the Philadelphia hotel where Maggie Fox was performing the seance, and he announced himself instantly smitten with her. Never mind that Maggie was a child of 17 years old and Kane was a whole ass grown man of 32. And never mind that being instantly smitten with someone actually just means you want to bone them. Cain brought Maggie home to his parents and said, hark. Here is the child er, I mean the woman, I am going to we D, to which his family was like, not today, bob. They weren't worried about her age, though. No. It was that the canes were a respectable family that practiced whatever Anglo Saxon religion they thought was the one God like best, and they weren't gonna let their grown ass adult son make his own decisions about his own future. So, doctor Kane decided to my fair lady the situation and teach Maggie how to sing The Rain in Spain falls mainly on the plane like a proper young lady so that she could be seen in public without embarrassing him, and so that he could bone her with the blessing of his parents. But then, and this shit is really fucked up. He left for a two year voyage to the Arctic, leaving Maggie with his family. According to American heritage, Maggie promised to give up spiritualism and let Kane's family give her a proper education while he was away. So, Maggie was left stranded in the Pennsylvania countryside by a bunch of uppity strangers who openly didn't like the cut of her jib. And then, after two years, Kane came back and made her sign a fucking declaration disclaiming their relationship. Of all the Tom fuckery in this great big world. Maggie, heartbroken, signed the document, and then Kane was like actually, you know what? I'm just playing. We can stay together. This fucking guy. By 1856, doctor Kane still hadn't made good on his promise to marry Maggie, and before leaving on yet another excursion, he agreed to have a ring exchanging ceremony with her in place of a proper wedding, which he promised her he would do when he got back. He's like the Nathan Detroit of the 19th century. And then, wouldn't you know, doctor Kane died in Havana before ever getting back to make good on his promise to Maggie. After spending 5 years sharing a home with people who hated her,

The system is to look at both sides of the ledger right. I really kind of says it all. Yeah and he's he's basically saying like it's not enough to be to say freedom of speech exists because we have free speech in the us america's a free country you have to examine why and you have to defend it or else it's just a privilege and privileges are always subject to attack but actual freedom is should be defensible so says we need to defend it especially based on a another op-ed that he was actually talking about by a law professor from fordham. Thane rosenbaum said No there are actual harms to speech. It is caused physical or does cause emotional harm that can in some cases exceed physical harm it can be longer lasting. It can have a greater impact on more people at once And so why do we allow hate speech in the united states and garett ups doesn't have the answer he he just examines the whole question. I think really well. Yeah i thought it was interesting. I mean you know. He makes the point that the same laws that allow for strides of civil rights and feminism and gay rights groups over the years are the same laws that protect the people that have done them such harm over the years And you know like you said you gotta look at both sides of the ledger. it might cause harm. And there's a cost to it right. But ultimately the the freedom my opinion lease outweighs those harm. So there's this guy named jonathan row who garrett ups quotes but he he wrote another option that i read in his idea of why freedom of speech including hate speech is important is because he says that if you suppress beach. You're suppressing thoughts right. So if you suppress hate speech it's still going to be there. It's still going to be boiling under the surface. Peanut there's still going quietly subtly trade in it but you can't refute it. If you allow hate speech it can be refuted loudly biblically. And then from that. And he makes the case that this is why gays in america have made such strides over the last few years. Because of the vicious homophobia that was publicly hurled at them that they stood up and said you know what this isn't true. You know what we deserve this right you know what we're not pedophile. What we should be able to adopt every in shutdown all this stuff systematically and america's watching this back and forth and Gay people one public sentiment just through logic. Yeah he was saying. If you didn't allow that hate speech in the first place right there wouldn't have been that position to address that hate speech improve it wrong. Yeah because you can't suppress hateful ideology it's going to exist. Sure so allow the speech so it can be publicly refuted and just smackdown. Yeah yeah. I think that's probably the best explanation for freedom of speech i've ever heard could wait close to Man thanks a lot. Jonathan rauch You got anything else. No i don't but a little tease before listener mail. We're gonna have a couple of very intriguing followups to recent questions. Okay all right well if you wanna know more about free speech to start talking and since i said that it's time for Whatever chuck's got up his sleeve yet.

Here's how you play. would you rather and it's not the sexy when you get to forgo one thing that humans need to do in order to live either eating sleeping or breathing. You can do the thing that you choose to forgo. Of course you just don't need to in order to live and you remain neutral in terms of pleasure or discomfort caused by the lack of the necessity so you don't feel hungry. You don't feel sleepy. You don't feel officiated out to me So he wants to know. What would we do without mine is easy would easily read not brief breathing. Brainer bonehead question. Who would say like. I don't wanna eat. I get a lot out of breathing. Federal giving that one well andrew said he would need. That's the answer that question. He said i would always forgo eating. Because of the money it takes to feed myself and the waking hours i would save. I mean people's that's the two things with food time and money. Yeah yeah yeah but you get so much pleasure breathing.

"161 FM talk in the triangle. So I saw this story and I immediately knew that Ross was going to be very upset because if there is one modification to the kill Dozer But he just won't shut up about. It's the What they call this again. Carolina squat. Just every day just you know, I can't wait. If you don't know what a Carolina squad is. It's possibly the dumbest vehicle modification I've ever seen. And and I am not anti vehicle mods man. He lifted lifted pickup truck. I grew up in Wyoming. Okay, That was that's just the thing you did. Also, occasionally your catalytic converter would fall off accidentally need to know what happened to it. Was that I had one truck where I have it six inches lift on it foreign to between suspension and body. And and it had a bell. How a modified bell housing so that There was additional clearance up under the middle of the vehicle, so I'm down with that. The difference is Between that a lifted truck. Um and Carolina squad. The Carolina squats the one where they only lift the front of the truck. So the like the drivers staring off into the sky. Have you seen this monstrosity? I only ask because the Legislature passed a bill making it illegal and the governor signed it. So finally something he won't veto. I have a neighbor down the street who has a truck like that, And it's the dumbest thing I've ever seen. It's the loudest, most annoying truck I've ever seen, like when he starts it. You can hear it's down the street. So Yeah, and it goes parallel. What is that? A tank and you look out like you're staring up at the sky, dude. It was. It's dumb. The positioning of the cab is and what makes it loud. He obviously has got glass packs or something on there just to terrify. The neighborhood there, But, um, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know how visually I don't know how you see, Basically, you still be able to kind of do it. You can do it very slightly, according to the bill, but he's cool. He also has his stereo and like speaker, phone is like it's like When he turns the stereo on it broadcast through the entire It's not a megaphone or something stupid. It's the most going truck, huge sound system in there. It's not a normal sound system like literally. It's broadcasting out of the truck like my dad used to have, Uh, Like, you know, you used to have the CB set up so he could he could turn it on and speak out like broadcast out. It's like that. Oh, yeah. Okay, so it's not like No, It's not like it's like a loud or like a Basie stereo. It's literally broadcasting out of it. It's the dumbest car I've ever seen. Everyone hates it. Yeah. You know, heavily modified modified vehicles like that sometimes just burst into flames. I've heard that. Yeah, Yeah, yeah, I'm kidding. Yeah, No, I know that's like the So you, uh, remember looking at it going? This is dumb for the same reason. You think it's done right? Because you're staring into the sky. And obviously, that was the concerned apparently with The General Assembly and the governor. Um The thing that dawn on me, though, why would find it even more annoying than that is, you know, you know how when you drop something in your vehicle right now there's a 50 50 chance. Well, no, because about 75% of the time it will jam itself under your seat in a position he can't reach because Murphy's law or something. There's still a chance it won't if you've got the thing lifted eight inches more in the front, and so you're you know, you're on that 40 that 45 degree angle. Everything you drop guaranteed goes under the seat. I mean, at least you know where it's going, though. Yeah. Then you can see like you can retrieve it. I mean, have to pull over, I guess. Pull. Yeah. Yeah, but even that would be a bunch of work. If you've got a bunch of stuff because you're lazy. Now, if I drop, it's like, you know, where is it could be in the back in the front. This side. There's like it's in the back. But it's not still wait in the back. So going forward. Um, When does this actually take effect December 1st. The alteration of the suspension framework chassis, the height of the front fender four inches or more greater than the height of the rear. So you can still do for 33 inches, I guess. Which I don't know if that will be noticeable, but that's the thing. All right. Hey, Scooter. What's up? Yeah, y'all calling the wrong things. See what happened. It's called the layaway lift. That's all when you could only afford one part of the lift. So it's called the layaway list. We got the other half on layaway. And I think that you know the Southern Poverty Law Center needs to get involved with this. It's discrimination because it is a layaway list because they couldn't afford Uh, the other half of the left. And you know was discriminating, impoverished people to only get 11 part of the lift. Why is everyone of the vehicles? I see what they've done to have $2000 wheels on it. You know, it's all it's a payment plan. I gotta tell you married about $100 a month. I had when I one of the first things because it's just thanks for the thanks for the call that speaker one of the things that blew my mind when I moved to North Carolina. I had never seen it. Yeah, it's right down the street. You know exactly where I'm going. Don't Yes, I do. Yeah, because so, yeah. Just down the street for the radio station. I had been here longer than you. And you pointed, I had driven past it every day and never noticed. And you pointed it out. Yeah. Like what? That's what that is. It's what is it called Rim time? I'm sure there's other variations where you basically come in. And you like You. You lease the wheels of your car. So you can get. You know, the really, really high dollar ones? Yeah, you're leasing the rims. It's just so what? So what happens it just if you don't pay, they come by. And you just on blocks or how does that work, man? I don't know. I don't know anything about. I heard them advertised on one of our stations. So And you know what? Honestly, if people want to go in, and they want to Prioritize that Whatever. None of my business, but holy crap. I had never seen anything like that. And North Carolina, As you know, from a From consumer protection standards as a lot of laws, so I just blew my mind that that was the thing. But whatever Okay?

They rode forty miles through the countryside. Until it last reaching the ruins of the white lady's nunnery on the northern border of shropshire. When they arrived charles troop said about disguising him. They dressed him in old. Clothes cut his hair and smeared his face with soot. It was a necessary measure because cromwell had already dispatched soldiers to hunt down. the road. King wanted posters quickly appeared far and wide and a one thousand pound reward was issued for his capture with the kings safe for the time. Being most of his friends departed to avoid drawing attention to the group. Only richard peril remained with charles to help lead him through the woods on september fifth. The pair fled towards the river. Saverne where they hoped to cross into wales and from their sale to the relative safety of france unfortunately they found that the severn was heavily. Guarded by cromwell's patrols left with no way forward. Charles and richard were forced to turn back the way they came this time. They headed for bosca bell house a remote hunting lodge about a mile away from the nunnery where they'd hidden the night before when they arrived at around three. Am on the morning of september six. They were informed by richards. Brothers that the white lady's nunnery had already been raided by cromwell's soldiers. Another royalist fugitive named major william carlos was also hiding out at bosko bell. He suggested that it would be safer. If charles didn't stay in the house instead. He recommended that the two of them climb a bushy oak tree on the house grounds. That way they could see in all directions and keep tabs on the enemy soldiers. Who would surely come looking for them.

Marion busy told our next story at a moth showcase at the Bell House in Brooklyn. Here's Mariam Live at the mouth. Um The year is 1990, my twin brother and I are six years old. We've repurposed our dining room table into a bomb shelter. Now The reason for this was real. Iraq had actually just invaded Kuwait. And so we were living there on DMA. I parents told us that if ever, we heard Rockets sort of come to close to our house that we should run to the living to the dining room table on get under the wood so that we'd be protected from falling rubble. S so we did this a couple of times like drills. My twin brother and I for fun, But we weren't really taking this too seriously because literally nothing had ever happened in Kuwait like except for the discovery of oil. Um, um, My life proceeded like clockwork there, um, you know, pick up from school at three o'clock. Then we go home and have lunch, which always started with clear vegetable soup. And then dishes and then communal family nap time and it was like my life was so regular that we didn't need an alarm clock to know when it was time to wake up. S so the idea that there would suddenly be like rockets falling on our dining room table. I was, like, all right. Um there's a lot of foreign labor and Kuwait because of the oil money. Um, my family is Egyptian. I'd been born in Kuwait, but that didn't give us citizenship rights there. S O R stay. There was contingent on someone in my family having a work visa. Right? So my parents were discussing this. What do we do? Um, what we do, and they decided that my mother would take my twin brother and I back to Egypt, where we were from. On where we spent every summer. On by my father would stay in Kuwait during the war to anchor us there. Um, now my parents were really strong believers in the resilience of Children. Um, which made them really bad communicators. So like they didn't really discuss the plan of us with us. But we like packed our stuff up and with the cooler of food in the back seat of the car. Um, we drove to the border in 1990. There's 500,000 Kuwaiti nationals living in Kuwait. There's 1.5 million foreign nationals living there. We outnumber them 3 to 1. If you can imagine that the border between quit in Iraq there's this enormous line of cars of families going back, either temporarily or permanently to where they were actually from On And so we do all of this. They look at our documents and we load the car back up. And then my dad just like doesn't get into the driver's seat. And he says, you know, be good. Take care of your mother. Like I'll see you see you and like he hugs us, and then my mother gets behind the steering wheel and we're supposed to drive this way and my father is literally the only person going back into Kuwait because to review there's a war on Um and there's no public transport going down that way. Like I'm just looking behind at the rear view mirror and watching him get shorter in the desert and being like, how is he going to get home? Um And I like I know how distressing this sounds. But actually, I was young and and also like the idea of saying goodbye to people abruptly was just an everyday part of my life as as a daughter of People who had migrated for labor. And, um, there was someone who was always like in between school years just leaving right because they're family had repatriated. Um or the you know the first Goodbye that I said to a close family member. I was two years old when my sister who had been my primary care kick caregiver up until that point. Had to go back to Egypt to start college. So this idea that I would just suddenly say have to say goodbye to my dad and then, like See you when I see you, Um what was just a part of my life? It was every day. On bear was something exciting about going home to Egypt like it was the place we spent every summer. It was really exciting. There's great beaches. There are cousins were there, um, horseback riding lessons were there so I was excited a bit to be going back home. Um, but then being somewhere for, like, a summer and then having to, like, resume your life. Some somewhere are two different things. Um and I found that I didn't like Egypt when I had to just be living there. Um, like I didn't have any of my stuff. And I really hated the school that I went to, um everything was on familiar. I didn't like my teachers. And I began every single morning just wailing. And when I mean every when I say every single morning I mean that, literally like Every day. For the time that I was at that school every single day I cried. I'd have to get like peeled away from my mother's Why, but like I was famous for it at the school that I went to, because at six years old, it actually takes a lot of stamina to make a huge scene every morning. Um, so like Was that kid? And then it actually got to the point where this woman who ran the canteen thing that you know, you could be like, buy snacks in the playground and stuff. She would take pity on me. Every morning would sort of like, wait until I've been peeled away from my mother and was like still weeping in the corner and she would come to me and bring me to sit next to her at the canteen and give me an enormous bag of salted popcorn. And a huge, like glass bottle of Coca Cola. Second breakfast and e would sit there and just, like, eat the whole thing and drink the whole thing And then, like, start to feel like a little bit, all right. Um And One day she actually met my mom. You know, like she came and said, and I met her and said Hi. Your daughter has been eating my food all term and hasn't paid me for it.

American Fashion Podcast
The Alabama Chanin Story
"A leader in the slow fashion movement. Can you describe what slow fashioned is? How do you think about it? Well you know. We first started talking about slow fashion on of as a derivative of the slow food. Newsman I think you know in many ways that That industry is light years ahead of where fashion so people started really looking at the way things were planted and grown much sooner than we did with textiles also I think a lot of what's being done around. Sustainable sustainable fashion is really taking cues from that movement. What made you start your own act. Actually let's just go back. What's your background in in the fashion business and textiles? Obviously this is a really good question. Well I do. I have a degree in what's called environmental design from North Carolina State University. Which sounds very modern today but really it was Degree that was kind of based on the house education so did a double major that today's called the Anti Albert's programs at a degree in Like design fundamentals and Textile design sort of handmade textiles on. And then I have another degree in industrial textile design so at at North Carolina State University. Water the other degrees other than the environmental design. So if you're doing environmental design where he not doing yes so I think the structure. There's a little bit different now when you were there. When I was there it started out you either. Signed into textile design product design graphic design architecture and landscape so environmental design is really cross disciplinarian. Volvos correct it was sort of modeled after the bow house Wheel of learning You know I think. A lot of people know that when the Bell House designers left Germany some of them settled in the mountains of North Carolina in a place called Black Mountain and that was very influential in the in the school of design which is now called the College of design at NC state income. So so how did you get into the fashion business out after he left school? Well that's a really good question I You know I just imagined when I graduated from. Nc State is that was kind of cradle the textile industry. At that time that I would be have been working in Charlotte or you know somewhere around. North Carolina there quite a few factories In a lot of textiles being made in that area while I was in school and I graduated in eighty seven and it was sort of the beginning of the great migration. Or let's call it the the next migration because excels are pretty migratory It's a pretty migratory industry so when I graduated there really had a really hard time finding a job in North Carolina and I You know I just you know back. In those days you had to go to the library. And there are books that listed all the companies that Were working in textiles in New York. And so a sent-off about sixty letters and you know. I got like five responses and I came up to New York for a week and interviews and at the end of the week I got an offer from a company calls US joint junior sportswear NASC- so third floor with I think that the Tagline was do use use you like a jeans and t shirt company. I started out there just as an assistant designer and went from there. And how did you come to the point where you started your own line? You know. It's kind of a roundabout story. After as you I worked for a company called sub studio. That was doing all the manufacturing and samples and India so spent some time going back and forth between New York and India. And after I Stopped doing that job. I actually sort of changed the focus and became a stylus so working on the other side of the camera you know instead of on the design and manufacturing side. I was Doing costume design and So I did that for a decade and During a sabbatical that I was taking my life as a as a stylist. I wound up. You know cutting apart some t shirts and sewing them back together again by hand and a low down half that eventually became a business very crazy story. And what led you to Florence Alabama to have a headquarters for your business model. Florence is my hometown so You know It took me a while to kind of figure out this when I was sowing the t shirts in the beginning that actually what I was doing looked very much like a quilting stitch and so is living in New York on Twenty Third Street and at the Chelsea Hotel and I started going around the garment. Destroy Looking for. You know embroiderers to help me do this. This vision of having these two hundred. One of a kind t-shirts Buying recycle t shirts from the Salvation Army and goodwill's and You know as the joke. I think some of these places thought of as a bag lady would come in with like these backs of recycled t shirts cut up and I wanted them. To put these elaborate embroideries on them and they're like Oh lady no so I mean I remember very clearly the afternoon I was standing on eight and thirty eight And I looked down at one of the pieces.
