A highlight from Rising Auto Theft Rates: Urban Consequences and Solutions

"Well, you see how easy this is now. Now you look at how they move money around and how the in your face money laundering folks, this is what this is. This is corruption and fraud. Some of the Bidens are great at the money laundering part. They got 20 shell corporations, but guess who's getting the guess who's going to be controlling the funding to rebuild Ukraine. We pay to destroy it. And guess what? The Hillary Clinton Foundation gets paid the rebuild Welcome right. to the podcast. We are in the same studio today, which is kind of nice. So thanks again for downloading. If you're just listening, if you're watching or watching the clips, uh, thanks for watching as well. And just for a quick mention, so I don't forget, if you haven't downloaded our app yet, I'm noticing we're getting a lot of downloads and the cool thing is when the morning Mike's program is going Monday, Wednesday, Friday, I'm the, seeing the view count go up and up and up, which is awesome. So I know we're only, you know, we're still in the dozens. I'd like to get into the hundreds and eventually thousands, um, but it's a cool program. If you haven't listened to it, it's a quick 15 minutes to quick by morning, run down three days a week of the top five topics, three minutes each. Do a great job. They do an awesome job when we're, when we fill in the stuff. We screw the whole thing up. Yes. Yeah. We, we blow the whole, the whole, uh, the schedule, but, um, but they do awesome and they're funny. I love it. It's a quick, you know, down and dirty 15 minutes, top five items of the day. And now you get your day started off on the, uh, they, you know, I think on the right foot, they were saying this week, like, Oh, it's so negative all the time, but I think they're hilarious. They take the negative stuff that's going on, but of course the negative stuff isn't the news. Yeah. Yeah. That's what we're seeing. I mean, carjackings again, Rochester had another, you know, record night. I mean, it's incredible how that was going on. And so it's amazing is, is like the Democrats just sit around and watch this happen in every city and every city. It's insane. Yeah. I sent you an article earlier this morning about Philadelphia. Let's see. I can find it. It's, uh, not that it's anything out of, you know, anything that we don't know about, but let's see here. Philadelphia swarmed by alleged juvenile. Come on, come on. Juvenile looters targeting the Apple store, Lulu lemon and footlocker. Yeah. So, cause they're starving. They're starving. They just, just need a little piece of ham and some Turkey. They need clothes and food. That's, that's only fair. I mean, they, you know, and once again, I know we've all heard this joke, but footlocker is not missing one pair of working boots. No, no, all the Nike's, all the Nike. Yeah. Well, some of those Nike's, I mean, Oh my God. Crazy. You know, talking about like, you know, thousands of dollars for a pair of, thousands, thousands of dollars. I was talking to my daughter and she said to one, one of her friends has a, as a pair of shoes were $1 ,200. I'll never forget the most expensive pair of shoes I ever bought. We were just starting a business. This was like 30 years ago now. Right. Crazy to think. And I remember somebody told me that maybe my dad was like, you got to have a decent pair of shoes. Right. And so I went up and I bought a pair of Justin and Murphy's. They're like 120 bucks at the time. Yeah. The most money I have ever spent on a pair of shoes. Now boots, I've spent more money on since because boots are more expensive, you know, hunting boots. Well, there's a purpose to them. I still don't spend more money on shoes. Like I'm wearing like Skechers or like $40. Like some of these Nike's $500. You can't tell me you're running faster. It's different when you're going to go out and buy a pair of like waders or something. You're going to use them. First of all, you're going to use them for the next 30 years. Right. And there's a purpose to them, right? Like, okay, they're more expensive, but I can walk through the water with them. Right. But if I bought like, if I had five, 600 hour pairs of shoes, I'd be afraid to leave the house. I wouldn't, I wouldn't get off the carpeting. Well, they're targeting the Apple store here, Glenn, because they'll buy jobs. And that's the only way to get a job is to make sure you've got an Apple iPhone. So it'll be like Chicago. We talked about this the other week with, with, uh, with Mike Speraza, Chicago is now forced to open or, or just talking about opening, you know, a, a government run grocery store in the inner city because they've all that. Well, they're going to, so they're going to, they're going to, the plan is to fight the communism with more kind of communism, right? That's going to work really well. But could you imagine how inefficient, first of all, Walmart's pulled out, Costco's pulled out, all the stores have pulled out because now target, have you heard targets now closing stores across the country? So target is now going through and discussing all the stores across the country, liberal target, liberal target. They put a black lives matter that they ripped down the smash of the window. I thought that'd be some sort of a shield or that we're just going to put up this, uh, this plywood and we're going to spray black lives matter on it. Hashtag hashtag BLM. And we'll be safe as they rip it out and use that same plywood to smash the window with. It's pathetic. There'll be nothing left in these inner cities. The problem is when it starts to spill over into the, into the, Oh yeah. This is, this is where it gets ugly. Well, they want it. That's what they want. That's, that's why people like, uh, the governor of New York, uh, you know, Kathy, the ice queen, Kathy Hochul is, is, you know, they first tried the push for section eight housing in the suburbs because that was only fair. Yeah. Now they couldn't get that through because the people in the suburbs are like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Now they're busing in illegal immigrants in the middle of the night. And I tell you something, if these Democrats like Mark Poland cars were proud of what they were doing, they would have a welcoming party at noon at noon, high noon. They'd have a press conference welcoming our newest community members off the bus so that the whole community could see these family units that are getting off. You got the husband, the wives, the two kids, you know, the things that we see in our country, right? No, it's not happening. They're bringing them in at two o 'clock in the morning. So nobody sees, they're all, they're all 23 year old males, right? Or 18 to 25 year old males. Some of which are from the Congo. I don't know about the, uh, you know, the, some of the social norms in the Congo, but I'm just thinking that maybe they're a little bit different than the Western world. I don't know. I'm just thinking maybe not. Maybe they're exactly like us. I don't know. But they're exactly like us. Why would they want to come here? Why are they aspiring to come here? I don't know. Anyway, it's a fentanyl fentanyl up again, by the way, there was another report. I think it was on a Fox news. Well, good for the Republicans. I mean, at least part of them, I should say good for the five or six Republicans that are the extreme right wing, according to the media, that's holding this garbage up. No, shut the government down, shut it down, shut it down until there's no more money. Take the money, go into Ukraine and send it to Texas, which they did right to the border, which they didn't do last time. Right. Kept it open. That's what do you need? What do you need? We're out of control. The founding fathers gave the power of the purse to Congress and the, and the Pentagon, the Pentagon goes, yeah, you know what? We're just going to exempt Ukraine funding from the budget. So ha ha. We just went over 33 trillion. If you go online and look at the clock, it's moving fast, right? So we're on our way to 34 or 35. Can you even see the numbers anymore? They just blur blur now. So, so fast. Oh no. And, and good news, by the way, we're refinancing this debt at 5 % now, not at 1 % or zero like we were doing. Yeah. It makes a lot of sense. Yeah. It'd be great. Yeah. The fence talk about keeping rates higher for longer. I don't know. They're not going to be able to do that. They'll be cutting interest rates by next year. Mark by where? And the number one reason I say that is because when you talk to every economist, I say, that's not going to happen. And they are typically wrong. So if you take the, it's like saying betting against the casino, it's like saying, you know what? I don't think MGM is going to make money in the sporting books next year. Ma, they're going to figure out a way to make money. They'll rechange the lines, right? Well, you, all you need to do is look at it and get a bunch of economists in a room and ask them where they think the market's going to be and then do just the opposite and you would be way better. Yeah. Pretty much that's usually the way to go. No doubt about it. So the, the, the, the Pelosi, we were talking earlier about the Pelosi stock trader. Yeah. You can follow online. Now, some of these folks, we did the game show game last week. We talked about the, uh, the net worth. I picked the poor ones too. They were like 23, 21, you know, $20 million. Some of these folks are amazing. I mean, really just, you know, the wizards of smart on some of these are just really, timing is impeccable up here. This is somebody who is selling some software that I'll track it, which you can, you, you've pointed out, you can get it for free online, but, but the, the numbers are really astonishing. This Democrat Senator sold her Aspen vacation home for $25 million. That was just after she sold her Lake Tahoe vacation house for $36 million. Well, by the way, why, why do they own these big $25, $36 million homes? Well, a big, big part of it is because the taxation of it, right? So a Feinstein who's telling you your ordinary income tax rates are too low. She's shifting that to a capital asset, which is going to create a capital gain in the future or no gain. Or no gain. I mean, they're 10, 10 31. This is why when Donald Trump looked at Hillary Clinton right in the eye and said, you will not get rid of the carry interest deduction and you know it because all of your, I use it, of course, all of her bigger donors donate money to Hillary Clinton. And this is exactly the truth, right? They will never get rid of some of these things. Like they talked about, we're going to get rid of the 10 31 exchanges. Yaha. Yeah. Uh huh. Yeah. So the big developer strokes a giant check to the, to the Democrats off the table. Let's listen to her success though. Amazing. A Senator sold her Aspen vacation home for $25 million just after she sold her Lake Tahoe vacation house for $36 million. Only two years earlier, Diane Feinstein has been a member of the political scene for 32 years and her salary is only $130 ,000 per 130 grand a year. Now it's more now. That's a little bit dated, but it's up, it's up to probably 180 now. But, but listen to this. First of all, if it was up to 580, you're not buying $23 million homes, $36 million homes. No, no, we're going to put in multiple homes. We're going to, we're going to put the Paul Pelosi onto our research committee. You make a million dollars a year. First of all, most of, most business owners that make that kind of money, they didn't make it throughout their whole life, right? They didn't start making a million dollars at 20 years old. They started making a million dollars at 50 years old and it took 30 years to get to that point. Right? So my point is, you're not at a million dollars a year at age 50. If you did it the right way, the hard way, and you did it yourself, you're still not affording a $23 million home, right? Multiple ones. Yeah. Multiple, multiple. Right. Those aren't even her primary residence. Those are her vacation homes. She lives in, she lives in California. Listen to this though. And it's, it's all of them. It's all of them now. This is a, this is from Nancy Pelosi, stock trader. Uh, this is a tweet, uh, a Twitter feed. You can follow Pelosi tracker is what it's supposed to track or underline or something like that. You'll find it. Anyway, uh, three weeks ago, sitting politician bet against the U S economy so far. He's been right. Tom Carper bought $45 ,000 of PSQ and inverse ETF on the tech sector on eight 23, August 23rd. Since then he's plus 3 % while the market is negative 4%. Go figure. Wow. Go figure. Man, these guys are so good. Yeah. And they're not by, they're, I mean, these are, that's some pretty technical strategy. You started getting into options strategies and stuff. I mean, yeah. Yeah. These guys have become very, very slick. It's not just about buying a, you see, it used to be, okay, I'm going to buy X, Y, Z. Then I'm going to vote for or against something. You know, I'm going to short the stock and then I'm going to vote against them for both that, that, that. So the stock goes down or I'm going to vote for something, knowing that it will benefit the company. The stock will go up and in a sense front running. No, they're, they're in the options strategies now. They're in the market. Yeah. They're doing butterfly spreads. Yeah. Crazy stuff going. They're very sophisticated. They shouldn't be allowed to two things. When you go into Congress, I, you know, I would love to have a Congress person run on or present around the following platform, right? Number one, term limits, term limits, top of the list. Number two, though, while you're in Congress for the eight years, or wherever we allow you to serve 10 years, 12 years, whatever it is, you could not invest in a stock market at all. All your investments are frozen or your choices, a model, some kind of a model liquidated go to cash, or you could buy the fidelity balance to counter. You could buy the, you could buy the T -rope price, you know, target retire, whatever, you know, or you go to goes into a blind something or other where you have no idea. Right. It just goes into what you picked a one through five tolerance for risk and somebody else invest. Maybe it's just broad indexing. Maybe that's it. Right. Something that doesn't allow this kind of garbage to go on where, you know, they buy, you know, Tesla stock and then approve a huge, you know, oh, we're going to, guess what? We're going to build a, you know, for government funded battery stations all the country. Of course, Elon comes out and goes, we already got those, you idiots. I did that like four years ago, you morons. Amazing what Elon can do and what the, what the government can. Going back to target for just a second, not to digress, but I found WGRZ, thankfully came up with a list of the, uh, the target stores that will be closing, Mike, the full list of locations all in, all in Republican run. You'll be shocked. Yeah. Yeah. Right in the, uh, the thriving, the, uh, you know, thriving, the Minneapolis, uh, location, the retailer said the decision, the close was really difficult. I wonder if that was after half. That was the one they put the BLM on. Yeah. Oh, that was the one they put the sign on that said, please don't burn our store down. We love you. I hashtag BLM lit it on fire. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. Uh, let's see. I'm shocked though. I wouldn't, I'm surprised you wouldn't stay. I mean, you know, like just collecting, you love them. You love, you support them. This is what you supported. Remember you, you, you raised money, you gave money. Yeah. And guess what they did with that money. They agitators hired to whip up people in the community to smash and burn down your store. You idiots. So there you go. There you go. Nice, nice work. What else do you think, Mike? Uh, New York city's East Harlem neighborhood. That's going to be one that's goes down. I wonder why. Chicago, San Francisco for sure. San Fran. Yeah. San Fran. Uh, by the way, before I forget San Fran, Democrat San Francisco mayor, announces plan to require drug testing, which is good in an effort to, if you're going to receive homeless benefits. Right. But the funny thing was in this same passage, they're going to Texas to try to recruit police officers. The funny thing is is that the people they sent from San Francisco to try to recruit people. They didn't come back. They defected like North Koreans. Some of them got jobs. They get over the wall. They come out, they get over the wall. It was hilarious. No, they didn't go back. Well, the other five stores, Mike, three in Portland, Oregon and two in Seattle, five, three in Portland. They're pulling out of Portland together. All of these inner cities folks will be food deserts. You're going to hear that term. It'll be business deserts. It'll be nothing. Well, business deserts, nothing left, but there'll be, but target, don't forget target. Does target sell food? Yeah. Well, yeah. They sell food. Yeah. For sure. Yeah. Well, I don't go on target. So Walmart I know does Costco for sure. Costco is a food store. I don't think target is as big as Walmart as far as like fresh fruit, but definitely frozen food, all that kind of stuff. You know, aisles of pop and water and chips and right, right, right. And all that kind of stuff. But you can definitely frozen food. You can buy bulk frozen food there. So, so there's going to be food deserts, all over the place, business deserts, whatever you want to call them. You know, it's amazing because you know, the, there's no policing. And the sad thing is that is the problem. It's not, there's no policing. I shouldn't say that. Excuse me. No, you're policing your asses off. I get it. There's no ability. There's no prosecution. There's no bill. You guys are arresting people, putting them in and they go right back on the street. They're getting, they're getting appearance tickets. It's a joke. Your point is no, there is no policing anymore because of the system, the Democrats put together where the police officers aren't going to bother. If you're a police officer and you know that somebody is going to be this, this carjacking or whatever is robbery. And you know that there's a potential, you're going to get an altercation where you're in New York state. There's two police officers that have been brought up on charges recently with almost a hundred percent chance that if you do catch that person, that person will be right back. Yeah. A hundred percent. Why would you bother? Why would you bother? You're not going to put your life in line. No way. You want to go home to see your wife and kids too, and your mother or your husband or whatever. You want to be able to spend your Christmas with your family. Why would you do that? And they know that, right? The Democrats know that. This is, you can't be this stupid. I mean, who allows these people to go right back on the streets and say, this is a good idea without correcting this right away. You can say, okay, bail reform. Our intentions were one thing, but when you look at the fact that in New York state, we are now breaking records in towns like Rochester and Buffalo for the most amount of vehicles being stolen. We can say, okay, look at bail reform, put it in place. It clearly did not work. It's been a total disaster. These towns have turned to shit. We absolutely need to go back in the other direction. They're not doing that. They don't care. They want to, and they're doubling down, tripling down on it, tripling down. We invited this liberal on, you actually were on the show with him and he said, things are actually safer since bail reform. That's what his argument was. His argument was, and by the way, his argument was if we have even less police officers, cities like Buffalo will get safer. Well the thought was less police officers, less arrests. Less arrests means less crime. Dude, you got the whole thing backwards, bro. And not only that, but now we know that, right? Now we know, now you can, I mean, literally auto thefts are up 360 % in Rochester. They're not up 3%. You can say, well, you know, in Buffalo and we're in second place. And they can't play, they can't play in COVID. They're trying to like, well, it was a lockdown. People were at pent up, whatever. Remember that was the, that was the reason for the rioting and the ballooning and burning like, well, people had a lot of pent up. We probably should have locked them down. That was a little bit of the reason for the increase in suicides. You guys, you guys increased suicides because you locked kids in their homes, but it wasn't the reason that they went and decided to steal Nike sneakers from a footlocker. So check this out. Speaking of COVID, this is huge. This is, I don't know if you saw this or not, but this is absolutely ginormously huge. Dr. Fauci was smuggled into CIA headquarters without a record of entry where he participated in the analysis to influence the agency's COVID -19 investigation according to the house select subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic. Did he need to do much with these left -wing CIA agents? Probably not. No, no, no. That's what they're smuggling him in for. Well they smuggled him in because they didn't want anybody to know that he was part of the PSYOP operation, which was hydroxychloric. By the way, the I think it was a Mayo clinic and some other hospitals now have come out as well as the CDC and said hydroxychloroquine, yes, indeed is an effective treatment for COVID. Oh, by the way, ivermectin also an effective treatment. The CDC now approving that. Now mind you, we're going to keep in mind that if there was any other treatments that couldn't get the emergency use authorization for these vaccines that clearly don't work. Amazingly, I'm still seeing people online go signing off my sixth booster on our way for the sixth shot, proud to get our sixth shot. How about how about one the other day, local left -wing nut job got her sixth booster shot, six shot and she still got COVID and then she said, well, I was so good hiding and it got all my shots and then I went to a concert and I got it at this concert. Well, first of all, you don't know that, but second of all, if you have six shots and you six shots and you still got COVID and you actually think that was a good idea, you don't need a vaccination. You need a mental, you need a mental check. I tell you, I know people during the during the COVID, the height of the COVID that were older, some of our clients actually that were prescribed by a doctor a hydroxy quirk when they were taking it once a week as a as a preventative measure. Yeah. And they, to this day have never had COVID. Yeah. And it's, it's, I mean, so it, but the sad thing is again, you know, we couldn't, it's all about the money now. And that's, you know, when people talk about the evils of capitalism, you're seeing some of that. Now, capitalism is the best thing on the planet, right? As far as, you know, lifting the masses out of poverty and creating amazing amounts of wealth. But the problem is this isn't, this isn't capitalism. What's going on. This is cronyism is what's going on. It is, Hey, look at, I will give you these government dollars. You're going to get this patent. You're going to get this. Unholy marriage between business and government. Mark my word. We were talking about Feinstein selling 25, $30 million homes. This Fauci will be on the board of Pfizer. He'll be on the board of Moderna. He's going to get shares of those companies. He will be blessed with with with millions and millions of dollars. His family watch and see, we'll be talking if we're, if you and I are fortunate enough to be around 20, 30 years from now, we'll be talking about the Fauci trust and watch and monitor that trust and see how big that family trust. Well, you see how easy this is now. You look at how they move money around and how the in your face money laundering folks. This is what this is. This is corruption and fraud. Some of the Bidens are great at the money laundering part. They got 20 shell corporation, but guess who's getting the, guess who's going to be controlling the funding to rebuild Ukraine. We pay to destroy it. And guess what? The Hillary Clinton foundation gets paid to rebuild it. Right. And guess who's going to get the contracts to rebuild. Oh, that'll be probably one of the Biden family members or somebody else's politically connected. Right. Remember it was, it was a Joe Biden's brother who got the contract, the multi -billion dollar contract to rebuild Iraq. No building experience, never been a contractor, right? No idea. Right. This is why these projects cost 500 times what they're supposed to cost. This is why when money comes into Buffalo, for example, $25 million to build homes, five get built. And you were, wait a minute, five, are these $5 million homes in the East side? Each of those homes would have been built for a quarter million dollars or less. And yet where did the rest of the money go? And the, the answer is never, we don't know. We don't know. We can't account for it. Or we'd have no idea. Or I mean, how many times have we've seen that in so many places that whether right down the local level or God forbid at the federal level between, you know, Iraq and others. I was telling you last week on the radio, I was reading an article about the grants that were coming into the city of Buffalo to plant trees. And I thought, okay, wow, like this could be sweet. Okay. You know, like I'm a big tree guy. I love trees. I plant trees every year. I do think, okay, that's one way to, first of all, I think it's one way to make a community look great. When you, when you drive around, let's say North Buffalo, all the streets are all tree. They look beautiful. You drive around the East side, it looks like shit, right? So, okay. You're going to take some of my tax money and you're going to directly plant trees. Okay. It's a win for the environment. It looks nice. It's going to bring things together. I'm like, well, where's the catch? This is a government agency. Where are they going to screw it up? You read through and you find out that they're paying $1 ,000 a tree. Now you and I both know that if they're saying it's $1 ,000 a tree, by the time it's done, it'll be two to $3 ,000 a tree. Now you, you're talking about $13 million worth of trees. You and I just planted trees. Every year we plant a few trees around our office, you know, three, four in the spring, three, four in the fall, just so they can start to grow and work their way in. And then, you know, plant more. We pay $250 a tree, plant it. Right.

Joe Biden Shuts Down Oil Production in Alaska

"Go now to Joe Biden's White House speech? I wish you would. We're going to the president is in complete control of the border. There is no open border and he's not worried at all. He gave a speech at The White House yesterday, cut number 7. I declared the entire U.S. article off limits to new oil and gas development period. We ran the process and protect more than 13 millionaire, 13 million acres of significant natural historic value in the Alaskan national petroleum reserve. And I protected the boundary waters of canoe area, wilderness, surrounding wetlands in Minnesota. Look, that's the most serialized we are we have energy inflation. We have energy inflation and the president is bragging on shutting down oil production in Alaska. And we want electric cars for which we need rare earth minerals not from China or dug up by ten year old boys in the Congo. And that actually is in the boundary waters. Tidal basin. It's in the watershed of the boundary waters. It's not inside the park. And he won't let Minnesota twin mining or twin mines, I believe it's called. They won't let them dig. So

Why Dependence Is a Massive Problem

"All right, containing China. This is obviously a big one in securing the border. We got just under three minutes here, Larry. Well, that's a huge problem because I believe that China has gotten more aggressive than Joe Biden has been in office because of the way he pulled out from Afghanistan as I said. I think it encouraged Putin to do what he's doing. And now Putin and Russia are joined at the hip. China is an adversary, huge, huge adversary. We need to stop depending on China. And what George with Joe Biden is done by pushing these EVs is to make China wealthier and make us more dependent. The batteries, the stuff that goes into batteries, the lithium, the cobalt, the nickel, is either mined in China, produced in China or mine to produce in places around the world, like the Congo, under control of China. We also need to bring back manufacturing, a lot of components, including pharmaceuticals, we can't get anywhere but China. So we're kind of increasingly more dependent on the adversary. And we should be going to the opposite direction. So that's what I would do. I'm encouraged more manufacturing here. I would encourage I would not push the EVs for all sorts of reasons. One is national security as I mentioned earlier. The other is the lie that EVs on net are better for the environment than gas.

IS group says it killed more than 35 'Christians' in Congo

"The Islamic State group has issued a statement confirming they were responsible for killing more than 35 people in eastern Congo. Ripping into the ground with shovels, villagers buried victims of the recent attack in mukundi village in North Kivu province. The allied democratic forces or ADF is a militia with links to the Islamic State that has been largely active in North Kivu province. The ADF rebels are accused by the UN and rights groups of maiming raping and abducting civilians, including children, local politician, Emile saidi spoke to the AP. Here three or four days do not go by without us recording deaths, the result of barbarity of ADF terrorists. That is why we repeat we need a considerable size military force to come and help to restore the peace. However, a yearlong joint operation between Uganda and Congo has not been successful in defeating or even substantially weakening the group. I'm Karen Chammas

Bitcoin Is Optimism With Alex Gladstein

"Well, for many of you, Alex gladstone needs no introduction. He's the chief strategy officer at the human rights foundations, and one of the clarion voices helping bitcoiners understand see and experience how Bitcoin is impacting communities around the world, especially those who are living inside unstable monetary regimes or under autocratic power. It was another amazing year of Alex's writing and contributing to our understanding of Bitcoin. And in this conversation we talk about his experience at the Africa Bitcoin conference, his recent time in India, and why so much of the energy around Bitcoin is coming from emerging markets and the developing world. All right, Alex, welcome back to the breakdown sir. How are you doing? Great, happy to be here. Happy holidays. You too, you too. Listen, I'm always excited to chat with you. And I think this year is a particularly opportune time to reflect on the year that was in Bitcoin in particular. And you obviously have been out there kind of living exploring and discovering Bitcoin and all of its various manifestations. So I'm really excited to chat. And by way of starting really, really broad. If you had to summarize Bitcoin's year in 2022, what would you say? Well, for me, it was global adoption. And I think that continues in 2023. I've seen stuff that, you know, that you people wouldn't believe. It's true. Especially when I went down to the African Bitcoin conference in Ghana, just staggered by the variety of communities and businesses and entrepreneurs and innovators and developers. Building on Bitcoin and focusing on Bitcoin from countries that like most Americans don't even know exist. I mean, it's really just incredible. Meeting people from Somaliland and Benin and Cameroon and DR Congo. And people coming to this conference and then going home to cities like Mogadishu where they're going to continue to work on their projects was pretty mind-blowing. I mean, it's safe to say that in all the world's most crazy conflict zones and dictatorships, there are thriving Bitcoin communities.

"Story and today the worldwide hunt for copper. Soon there might not be enough of it to feed our insatiable demand. So we've been talking about how important copper is to an energy future without fossil fuels for clean energy. And one of the big problems is that there is going to be a shortage of copper in coming years. There is a whole lot of copper in one place though, and that is in Southern Africa and Zambia in the area around the Democratic Republic of Congo. And so you'd think, great, they have big minds there. We can get the copper, but not so fast. Matthew hill, Bloomberg reporter based in Bela and eastern South Africa. And he has written a story called the metals for your EV, are stuck in a 30 mile African traffic jam. So you went to this enormous in Zambia, which produces a whole lot of copper. How much copper is there in this region? The Central African copper belt that extends from southern Democratic Republic of Congo into northern Zambia, northwestern Zambia. The area is bigger than the size of the country of Portugal, but over the past few decades, very little of that copper has been exploited. Right now together Zambia and the Congo only account for about 12% of global copper production, but there is the potential to produce much, much more than that.

"Congo water is like, is this the same thing as alkaline water? It is alkaline water. Okay, yeah. Yeah. But it's natural alkaline energy. It's not, you know, with the alkaline water that you see on the store shelves. Oh, okay. Most of that is made with baking soda and things like that, which isn't very good for you. Okay, because yeah, I'm just got a couple of articles over here talking about you know the effectiveness of alkaline water like how it does not really any much scientific evidence about it, you know, supporting your health, know that. So I just really wanted to know about, you know, this whole infection is because I'm really interested in it and you know how it's works. Well, the alkaline water is one thing, but the thing, the real important property of this water is the hydrogen. And so your hydrogen is the same molecular structure as your body's cells. So when you drink the water or the hydrogenated water, the hydrogen goes into your body's cells immediately. It absorbs immediately into your system. It doesn't sit in your stomach. Okay. And so if you are on supplements or anything like that, if you take supplements with a normal normal tap water or bottled water, whatever, you are a simulating about 20% of the supplements. When you take the supplements with the hydrogen water, you're assimilating about 80% of those supplements. Okay. And so there's a big difference. of the biggest differences we have seen, I mean, we have proof of it. We have machines in a lot of the CBD stores. And people will come in and they just bought a bottle of CBD for a hundred bucks, and they say, well, you know, it's not doing anything for me. They have back problem of leg problems or something like that. And will tell them, okay, take your normal dose of CBD. And drink 16 ounce glass of this water and we hand them in the water. And they'll drink the water, and within two minutes, it's like a deer standing in headlights. They'll just say, oh my God. You know, now I can really feel the difference. Now backwards. It's immediate result. It gives you an immediate result. Oh, okay. Okay. It's just you know like with what I'm reading right now, like what I'm going screens like, this thing such as alkaline water claims aren't proven, for example. For example, they say over here that because I'll come on, you know, it raises the PH. And your body generally prefers when a liquid that you ingest is closer to neutral. So like, I don't know. But I think from your description, it sounds like it's something amazing, so I trust you word. Yeah, well, it sounds it sounds too good to be true to be honest with you. Yeah, yeah. It sounds like miraculous some sorts. We have, we have this machine makes 7 different waters. It makes an 8.5 PH water a 9 PH water and a 9.5 water. That's for drinking. It also makes a 2.5 hypochlorous acid water, which. That water will kill mrsa on contact. Oh. Okay. And it's for, you know, cleaning to replace all your cleaning products in your house. Then it also makes the 11.5 water, which cleanses your vegetables and things like that.

How Unity Can Be Realized Only Through the Church

"I have to ask you because everybody has a different temperament. You have the temperament by God's grace to wade in to these really painful details and as a journalist to kind of sift through these facts and try to make some sense of them. There aren't many people doing that. My instinct for good or for ill is always to want at some point to step aside and to say, what can we do about this? Is your I'm guessing that your response first and foremost is to do what you're doing, which is to say to report on it and to try to bring clarity since there is so little. Well, I think it's really important we find reconciliation across racial and ethnic ethnic lines in the church. And the church needs to be the place that brings Americans together about what's really important because you and I have much more in common with a Christian pigmy living in the jungle jungle in Congo, than we do with a secular American, the same ethnic background as our state. Right. I want to see people gathering in the church and coming to the foot of the cross of Jesus Christ and finding the real source of unity in our human dignity as children of God made by God redeemed by Christ brought together by the Holy Spirit. These are the things that bring us together. So when I talk about these racial issues, my intention is not to divide and not to rally white people as white people. No, not at all. My intention is to is where I see people being demonized, vilified, treated unfairly because of their ethnicity. I want to object to that as a Christian.

"Because you're really having to find who you are and really that in and be vulnerable and expose yourself because authenticity is they think what makes TEDx so powerful is their raw and they're real. And what type of transformations have you seen from people that have come in and they've been like, I'm gonna do this. And they've been super hard and then all of a sudden they're crying on stage. You know what I mean? They've really, you've gotten them done deep to where they're doing that. I would imagine it would be a very rigorous personal development course that they're in. Yeah. Well, you actually there. Their focus is always about the TEDx in terms of the credibility and what it can do for them, and they want to share their message. It's all external things. They're thinking about helping other people. They're thinking about the credibility and business type stuff. But then, like you said, you they will get some serious personal development and just the power and the power that comes from clarity is huge and the TEDx process and journey is just size in reduction and prioritizing, okay, so you've got 5 things that are just, oh, they're just so good. You've got to wait a minute, you haven't got time. What are the three most important things? And they're like, I can't do it. They do it. And then after that, when they get put on the dropped in it, you've got ten minutes an hour to talk about this, they've done the hard yards, they know what the priorities are. You know what the key points are, and his versatile, because long as you hit your key points, then you can you can like you have the flexibility dependent on the audience dependent on the time depending on the situation. So for instance it comes from that is huge. And again, people don't expect that as much as it. And that's kind of like a side benefit or a nice benefit from going like, I want to get a TEDx because of I want to share my message. I want to increase my revenue. And I want to increase my credibility. Coming saying, I want to come and get a TEDx because it will grow me as a person. And it will help me in all these other areas, but that's what happens. And that's really what happens. That's really what happens as they grow as a person. Yeah. You do so much podcaster author coach a lot of things. What makes you tick? What did you do? Yeah. It comes down to I love uncover awaken your alpha, the talk except this stuff is from uncovering people's not hidden talents, but just and just, you know, being there to help people back themselves and not hold themselves back basically. So it's that unleashing their potential is well, and giving them the tools and support and mindset to help them achieve these things. Buys me up and I do podcasting and the TEDx stuff. And right in the books, but it's basically storytelling and communicating. That's what fires me out. And over the years, I think the power and for me personally, I just try and look into simplify things. And that's always the challenge. So yeah, I love working with people to refine their ID. Amplify their message, only. So that's really what comes down amplify their mission and amplify their message. And they really go well to because you know, if you're going to, you know, step up, put your balls or lady balls on stage or something like that. You've got you've got to awaken your offer. You've got to have that mental side because otherwise, you know, you will crumble if you're not prepared and that's a stage. That is like, in a good way, but, you know, you can't be timid in that sense, but to not compare yourself to other people and think, oh, look at that person on the TEDx stage. Wow, they look confident. Feeling now, that's because you're probably about a year away from a TEDx. Realistically, that person, you don't see behind the scenes in the meetings when they're doubting themselves or their first three ideas weren't that then we uncovered and they're like, oh, clicked, and that happened in the past week. You know, working on their idea, and we've been putting some hard yards on it and it is from her overall mission. But you know, it was tough work. And then all of a sudden, a few questions in the right way. I wasn't expecting this. They came back with completely different perspective and different idea but still aligned with their mission and they're like, this is it. And it's not like, oh, we didn't waste work on that first, it's got kind of idea that. The work that was needed to then like, this is it. This is it. And that's awesome when that happens. All right, so you're about action. Mastery, and legacy. What is the legacy that you want to leave? Yeah. You know, back themselves, they didn't play small because I do believe fear is the number one, you know, destructive force for anyone in what they're trying to you can make excuse about other things, but it really comes down to your fears by these perceived challenges and you put in the responsibility over there. And I say this, not from a position of Congo. Position, this is, you know, this is what we're all some people attack it a little bit more than others, but we all have ups and downs. The down day or two or a week. But you just acknowledge that that is normal and, you know, you'll be coming back. Don't think one of my favorite quotes is life's shrinks and expands in proportion to one's courage. And I completely agree with that because when you are feeling a little bit timid and you're feeling like, oh, this is tough. Like, then, if you start to emplace more, that just compounds. But action, which may just be I'm not feeling it today, but I'm still going to get on that phone with that person. Write that thing today. I'm still going to turn up. That may seem to the outside world standard, but for you on that. That may have been a big thing. When you keep pushing them boundaries for you and facing them things, then your life will start to expand even more. So I think that's important. So when you need to step up is when you're feeling the lowest is even more important than so what I love about you..

Remembering Jamaican Producer Lee 'Scratch' Perry

"In a realm where eccentrics are taken for granted. Jamaican musician Lee Scratch Perry was singular. Perry was a hugely influential producer and not just in his home genre, Reggae but in dance, music, hip hop and beyond. Perry died in Jamaica on Sunday at age 85. NPR's Anastasia Sulcus has this appreciation. Lee Perry got his nickname from a song he recorded early in his career chicken Scratch. Good. Someone like chicken scratch. He also called himself the upsetter. It was an apt description on many levels. He had a habit of having acrimonious splits with former mentors and artists he previously championed. You'll never get away from me. I am upset at Perry's own studio Black, Ark. He worked with many of Jamaica's biggest talents. Including junior Mervin, the hep tones, the Congo's and Bob Marley's band. The Whalers. Mr. Brown is a clown rides through town, even thoughtful. Black Ark. Was like a chemistry lab for Perry's sonic experiments. He was a pioneer of dub, underlining the base and adding reverb to create lots of oral space. He also sampled before most people knew the term or the technique used found sounds and even buried microphones underground to get the effect he wanted. Perry's partnership with the Whalers ended badly he secretly sold tapes they'd made with him to another label and kept the money. Years after building his fame studio, Perry reportedly burned it down. He was an impish, erratic presence, often in his later years, sporting neon colored hair and beard and fantastical

We heard from Kawai Leonard and Nicolas Batum and the head coach. T. Lou earlier. Talk about Sergio Baca being with them on this road trip. And it feels like the fact that he's been out the last two months. People forget just what he can do on the court. And what a big pickup he was for this team this offseason. Yeah, he was considered their prize of free agency. It was going to be a bust. If it weren't for the surgery back, assigning according to most people, Now, of course you look back. In hindsight, you say. They did get nicked, But two for basically nothing. They did get Reggie Jackson back for basically nothing. They got Patrick Patterson back for basically nothing you say? Oh, wait. They definitely made some big time moves. But overall, Sergio Baca was that guy. He was that centerpiece for them, and he does so much on the court. He spreads the floor as a three Indy center. He is the prototypical modern day center as well. The three point shooting He's been consistently getting better throughout his career. Now in his 12 season from the Congo, he is aggressive. He is a former defense of menace, who still can get it done with his high basketball I Q on the defense of side of things, so he brings a lot to the table. And, of course, he's just another guy with great size to go up against some of the better Biggs in that Western conference, Anthony Davis. Coli. Yokich. Rudy, go bear. There's some big time names in the front line in the West that you're gonna have to go through. If you want to get to the NBA Championship, and Sergi Bach was brought in to help with that. So it is a huge loss, not having him. I'm already watching him Right now. He's been getting up shots for about the last 15 20 minutes. They looks pretty solid so far. Adam that is very encouraging. Coach Lou Pregame also said that Evita's Ooh bots is going to be that starter moving forward. It's not that surprising of a move because he's been there, starter going back. Ah, year and a half two years now. But what do you like about big zoo in that starting five and having that continuity? Well, he really He fits with Kwai Leonard and Paul George with what he wants to do on the court what they can do on the court. He is a great screen center. He rolls to the basket incredibly well.

We opt for the second class. So let's six dollars. We later regretted that choice for sure. And of course whilst we're getting these tickets rebublican to shock the ticket. I was like. Oh gosh. can't lose this dude man and he told us that he had left his tent on the bus the day before. So he's really upset about that at all. I was thinking damn. I wish i would've known 'cause my ted was on its last legs. It was leaked when it rained at usually. Whenever i kept it rained usually right after the dent also because it was like a pop up had two ten poles one of my tent poles was broken. It did fix it with some bicycle. Inner tubing which did help a little bit but it's still busted so attempt on his last legs so i really had no sympathy for him. To be honest next up was to change the money.

Five million for travelers checks like sits six million for cash. So i was like well. That's not really good. Deal left jacques and cleared. I went to a couple of really pasha tells hoping we can get. It changed their because it was a saturday. So the banks were closed banks close on the weekends and even more noise to try and change the end up going to this one posh hotel which was called hotel dulack but the dust will like now we don't do traveler's checks and that's another thing. It's really funny. 'cause well especially gomaa you'd see all these storefronts and or even front of house porches in front of houses and they're just be usually. It seemed big mama's behind.

We were millionaires in the congo. As well because at the time it was six million dollars to one. Us dollar it was so crazy like you see everyone would carry like plastic bags duffle bags full of money because the bigs note was one million. It was ridiculous nowadays. it's like said not even called. It's called democratic republic of congo or kogo for short and they now have the congo francs. So it's about two thousand. Franks to the one year seller nowadays so we decided to opt for the bus so i was like this overall which is a good choice because there's fairly comfortable wasn't quite as jam-packed as usual the first part of the roads really bad full potholes dirt roads kind of through dense forest jungle cutting of africa. It's so sceneries. Absolutely stunning beautiful. Very lush very green. And then you'd see like ravine rolling hills so just before we got to mature which is originally where we got the bus to.

We've just left the gorillas the animals and now we have been stopped by guerrillas as in militia ferry very scary. Well luckily for us they were looking for a particular man and he was on the bus. So i went from oeygard. God we're about to be robbed raped and murdered to everyone. Get back on the bus okay. There's a little heart attack. Just go back on the bus and kind of calm down and carried on and arrived inward shoora and then we found out that the bus did continue to go up for an extra couple of million so that was great. Okay co continue on and then the that road from sure to goma was one of the best roads. I've been on since kenya. It was paved road excellent. Like wow these existed anymore and africa so that was cool and we got to go about three o'clock still absolutely beautiful scenery on trees. Banana trees in it just so beautiful like when you think of. What does the heart of africa look like. This is it basically about three pm and then it was the usual.

So which is fine by me. I said he was super annoying to basically packed up. And you had you had to hire local boys as porters from the park. Either to the border began to or to market the bus which is fine because it's a little bit of money for them so we picked our boys. I couldn't find john. My guy awesome little.

Oh yeah look at you buy a little group of mostly white westerners in your little bubble thinking. You're seeing africa. You don't do anything for yourself.

Because i think we're gonna miss the bus. But i was like listed after seven months in africa. I know that transport never ever leaves on time. So i was not that stressed better basically so we got to the market paid. Our boys became a big tip about eight. Thirty and jacques was there. But i guess healing about fifty minutes before us and he left an hour before so girl. Power and of course. The bus wasn't even there so you know when you're right you're right. What can i say.

Swedish rocked up the day before. I got to go the next day. So that was a wicked so we paid our fee for a permit which is about one hundred and five. Us dollars and then you get a little guidelines what not to do with the guerrillas and all that stuff and also if you do find the as you only spend one hour with them so it's ten people a day when our with them and then you get to choose whether to do a one hour trek to see marcel. Who's silverback of that family or hurt see oscar silverback of his family which was twelve but it was a three hour trek. And of course. We're like well. We are the three hour track. We've left at about eight forty so the main things don't look at guerrillas straight in the eyes pussy silverbacks stay low crunch crunch down. See look more submissive dos dosso. There was two germans australian knowing jack and claire nice. So there's only the two rangers who carry guns machete so there's only eight of us in total so yes nice. Walk over the rolling green hills and the valleys of congo. We walked for about two hours and along the walk. Any local people that we came across the guys would ask them. Oh so where have you seen. The girl is today this morning. Like scene bob around today so if they did they say where they saw though kept walking and we found some signs of the gorillas like poop and just the the brush broken down kind of thing where they trek through the forest and they had head into the forest so i was so so excited because few other people that are the travelers had met the last month or so who had been to see the growth only saw them in the fields like in crop fields and i really really want to see the in the jungle the forest so we headed into the forest. And there's no pathways so our park. Raiders are like shedding their way through dense vegetation. And there's like key these all these huge trees and ferns and bilas flowers and hanging vines. Like i was getting to tarzan in a minute so cool and of course the more we walked in the forest more excited i was. I mean i was super happy. Just walking through this beautiful forest the mill zaire and we walked about another forty five minutes and then we came to this natural clearing and it was built on a ridge. Book made it like volcanic rock and again like all these big trees. It was just so beautiful. Like amazing and then we can come back into the forest and walking another half hour or so and just as the guide said. Listen i i think the girls might have backtracked and go back to the village like the fields so we might not see them today. Boom we came across the guerrillas. They're sitting in this next part like little clearing and all just sitting on the ground eating leaves. Oh my gosh. My heart almost exploded just with joy.

"We are going gorilla trekking in the heart of africa in the what was known as the year now the democratic republic of congo. I might just call it zaire for right now. Get to visit. Guerrillas is probably still to this day. One of my most favorite and experiences. I've ever had in my life. That's thirty years of traveling around the world. It was awesome so picking up where we left off on day. Two hundred twenty one. My friend claire nairobi. And we've been travelling together for probably close to months now. We finally left. You can't after five weeks in overstaying reason by five days and crossed into zaire and we instantly became millionaires which was great added bonus because it was six million dollars to one. Us dollar it was crazy. You see people carrying like plastic bags. Money around including us really. So yeah nowadays. It's not like it's not called players called congo. Franks and it's about two thousand cova. Franks to us dull so very different at another thing in the congo that they speak french will. It's kind of a mixture of french english and african dialects but predominantly french which was also quite funny to start communicating in french. Because i knew quite different so at the border we had to choose two boys to be reporters to help us carry our bags the two hour trek to the park headquarters. So the it's called the parthenon. She alvarenga us national park. He didn't have a choice you had to pick to. Of course they'll you know there's a to fight of who's going to carry our bags and to bigger boys decide. They would do it but just as we're leaving there is another who hall and this little kid got only five feet tall. He is insisting that he was going to carry my bag. He was called john. And i was like jerry. Sherlock my bank played fifty pounds at the time. Said no i can do. I can do it on my okay. But so we off our to our walk and blessed. John he was awesome. He led the way. Never a complaint in clair's porter. Yeah bigger boy and he was lagging behind the hall so as a really nice walk to our walk and but it was. Larry because you cross you feel like crop field and even we'd go through people's houses that's why we need the puerto boy so we finally got to the park Headquarters two hours later. John was a trooper so again. A big tepid canadian flag pins up. My grandma had given me so gave one of those. He was thrilled. We there's a little campground near so we pitched our tents than headed up to the rangers hut to check out the situation.
