"So in the I mentioned earlier, you're taught in McCormick ag seed, talk about the pastels of cannabis. So you like white widow, durban poison, northern lights number 5 and a few of these that you can basically trace the majority of our strains today back to a handful, right? So those handful, those handful of originating varietals were what land race crosses. So that's what I'm my next project. I mentioned the genetics are so diluted and it's so crazy now. I want to take a big step back. So I'm going to take these two language varietals and start from scratch and take three years and try to work for I'm going to try to end up with four true breeding very distinct lines from that and not to say that I'm trying to recreate white widow or northern lights and stuff. But that's where these that's really strange came from is those worked lines. So I'm going to take a step back and especially now all the patenting all the legalization stuff is coming around. I would like to have something that I have taken from its origin. So you can't go back and buy the rights to white widow and all of a sudden you don't every strain gets a market now. I was like, well, what can I do to separate myself from the crowd and offer something that is truly unique and I would like and I do plan on that, but at this point, like I said, because of my personal standards, I don't feel comfortable doing that because I could probably have made a few thousand bucks still in seeds this last year, but if they're having bad success around marketing it as like the super stable line, my name and reputation is worth more than that quick buck. So I do want to be able to offer some stuff, but I want to make sure that it's up to my standards of quality before I put my name on it through it out there. So hopefully, you know, like I said, within three years, I'll have something that is totally distinct, unique, and can't be traced back to any other anything that's out there now. So that's kind of my goal. That's awesome. And you're becoming, I mean, you probably already realize it, but you're becoming quite the influencer in Oregon, especially in the canvas world. I looked at the people that follow you. And there's a lot of well-known good people following you from Oregon. And so keep it up, man. It's good to see the positivity and the good stuff. Come out of the, you know, the popular places. So I appreciate that, man. It was good talking to you. So why don't you go ahead and tag yourself where we can find you. I know you got your Instagram, your website, why don't you tell people about that and I'll share it as you go. Yeah, fluoro farm, lucky enough, I've got it across the board, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, and the dot com as of now. So I'm going to try to use my website, the floral farm dot com as the hub, jumping off point as you will. I think that the amazing doctor zymes is going to take that over for me.

"Organic soil that takes time as opposed to synthetic nutrients where you're on a schedule and basically force feeding it. So I would say the synthetic nutrients specifically soilless media growers with the auto flowers are able to have many more feeding events in that short veg window. So you're able to feed as much more and get a bigger plant because you're able to feed it more often. So they're not in a organic soil living soil, they're not heavy feeders unless you are force feeding them by themselves. And I think that's why my plants tend to be on the smaller side in containers and organic soil and like I said, they have that very limited window of veg growth and if you are going to start feeding it. So I haven't bottle fed enough autos to be able to give an opinion on that. It makes sense from the fact that you don't want to push nitrogen. No, maybe after the seedlings ten days old, you could give it like one or two very light veg feedings, but it would make sense to be in transition nutrients or flour nutrient profile from a very early age for sure. But as far as from the very beginning, it needs some nitrogen, but what's available in whatever soil may be plenty. If you're growing a hot soil, you don't need to give it the additional nitrogen for the flowering nutrients is what my understanding from that situation would be it's going to have plenty of nitrogen available for the first two weeks when it's really drawn on it. Cool. Cool. Thank you for that. And I got one last question for you. And obviously you got a lot going on. But with all the skills that you have and the level of passion you have for cannabis, have you ever thought about breeding at all? I mean, seriously, doing some

"Appreciating the opportunities that have started to present themselves and stop stop being grass is greener on the always greener on the other side situation I'm really trying to step back and see the opportunities that I have now place sure it's not what I thought it was going to be 5 years ago, but I think it's so much better. I can imagine if we had done our license two years ago, we would be probably day to day worried about not being able to make sales to keep lights on. Avoided that and take the good of the bad. So silver lining, I'm making the best of the situation I'm in now. Like I said, you know, big thank you to the amazing doctors I'm like I said they recognized I think my passion and commitment to the plant and the process and are going to take the risk to put this program out there and I think it will be able to reach a lot of people and do a lot of good with it. So I'm super excited about that. Land force products down in Eugene. We're working on working on a little project with them for auto flower specific soil. So we've got a few things going on. Nice. Yeah, I'm super, super happy and I'm just going to be content and grateful for what I do have and make the most of the situation I want. You know, you talking about bringing the soil up for made for autos. That reminds me of a question I did want to present to you real quick. I hope you don't mind circle and back. But on autos, what because their life is so short and everything nutrient wise, I mean, I've heard people saying, especially people that use bottled nudes and stuff that they're hitting bloom nudes right from the beginning.

"I've noticed a lot of these retail level farms basically even putting out quote unquote top shelf with freeze drying. So that's the cure. What do you feel about freeze drying? I haven't got to try any flour. I haven't tried any freeze dried flowers. Have you? Have you talked to me? I'm not going to use names 'cause out of fear of them not liking it, but I've had some pretty big organ well-known farms that freeze dry and yeah, I've had it. And it's interesting. It's definitely. It's not that it's bad. It's just that they quote, they quote what they told me is that they could cure it in 24 hours. So you put in a freeze dryer, wet, 24 hours later, pull it out, and it's like a cured bud. And I've had it, and it was, it was a great farming good genetics, so I mean, it was good weed. But it had more of a different texture to it. Like, almost like, you know how food gets with freeze drying. It's got that powdery kind of just a different texture versus dehydrating, not dehydrating, but air drying something. So the texture was a little bit different, but man, it looked good. It still smells good and everything. I just don't know, there's a lot of people doing it that people don't realize they are. In Oregon. Oh yeah, I thought it would be a great technology to be able to do like a sample. You know, you could try and dial in when you want to harvest or something and you can pop a small flower every day for three days in a row and be able to sample it within 24 hours. I

"Going to say, you're probably trying to hit like 14 days, aren't you? Just to get it. 14, 14 days is my minimum, I go for it. Oh, okay. Wow. I'll let it hang 60 and 60 for 14 days. No matter what. And as some of the smaller flowers are dry by then, it doesn't hurt at all to hang in that. You could hang for months at 60, 60. Interesting. All right. Without serious repercussions, it's going to stay reasonable. If you keep it dark, it'll be usable flour. It's not going to disappear. 50% if you're doing 70° and lower humidity, it's going to wreck your flour. So that's why I stay at 60 60 because you can go over by weak and it's not going to have any negative impact on your harvest on the quality of the harvest. So at 14, I won't check. I won't even check for it until 14 days. I'll start doing spending some stems seeing what the larger flowers look like and go from there. And then I'll, and then what I trim, I

But up until like four days ago, like gorgeous beautiful flower super dark green leaves and just like bright, bright, vivid white popping pistols. It was like this gorgeous plant. Smelled super intense. Like a very strong, powerful aroma. It was like you'd smell it, it gag in the back of your throat and flinch away from it. Just like this hot, nasty trash juice, like ham and asparagus, just gross. But then you have to immediately go back and smell again. Like a few days ago, it was like totally different. Like mellowed out and now it's like this like a spicy chocolate chip cookie dough with like this weird lemony vanilla orange real bright floral pop to it also. But totally changed overnight into a whole different nose. And it's a fantastic I'm really looking forward to smoking that one and then the Kim dog was just a cutting from the home up the valley. I don't know exactly how legit or where it was sourced. So but it's looking really nice as well, smelling smelling proper chemical spill. Yeah, the doci derb, the double dusty dough and durban poison cross from savage seeds. I went through such a transformation. It's always been a very intense, powerful nose, but it switched from like a rancid like where you go in and smell it and kind of flinch away because it's gross, but burnt smell again to be sure. Yeah, it was like a wreck, you can't look away from situation. And then it kind of shifted into like this really, now it's like a really spicy chocolate chip cookie dough. Oh wow, with some citrus back. Oh, it smells really, really nice. Like some of the Durbin poisonous sweet that sweet durban poison starting to leak through a little bit.

"Then I was looking today, you had posted a post about, let's see who would bring it up. About these wine caps. You have wine caps popping in your bed. That's awesome. Oh man, that's such a beautiful company. Solutions. And that's part of the compost. They sell a product that's to inoculate wood woody molts specifically for woody mulch. It's in a bag. Of not quite sawdust, but small woody material that's fully inoculated with the non gap spawn. And I just busted that crumble that up throughout the bed. And that was before my last run that does wine. So those are buried. Now that layer is like 6 inches under the surface now. And I'm hoping that after this harvest, I'll start to get another flush after this harvest. But man, yeah, are you eating them? I didn't eat any of that. Theoretically I could have their choice edible like, but I just wanted those to drop. Yeah, so I was like, I wanted those to stay in to try to repopulate. But I will definitely be eating the next round, yeah. No, that's cool. That's great. Oh, awesome, yeah. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I don't grow a lot of them. But they are tasty. And they work really great with cannabis. I mean, they grow in beds well, and they're a great relationship with most plants. Good choice. Yeah. And then I was going to ask you about, you know, what do you mind talking about like the genetics you got going and what you got going on in the fire side of things there? Yeah. When you got some good genetics, don't you? So like I said, I grew up in seed and kind of the one headache of growing from seed and then I started out with 12 different varietals from seed and that's all totally different plants.

So between that and I've got the vermicomposting towers in the center now, which I really, I'm loving that and can you talk about those too? I highly recommend those if you have space and even if you're in a smaller bed, I think you can get like a two gallon bucket from ace or lows or whatever and it would be worth having that in your bed because that's like a put an IV of the biology into your plant, dad. So I had got hooked up to do beta testing, which is the IPM light ring uses UVA at sea, I think, to disrupt DNA basically and make it disrupt the breeding process for a laundry list of pests and pathogens and I love the light and I think the technology spot on. But it's around, it's called the number 5 ring. It's around to sit down in the 5 gallon hydroponic bucket. So I needed something to set the light on is what inspired me to do the vermicomposting tower. So I took a 5 gallon bucket and removed the bottom. 5 inches or so of the bucket and 12 lots of holes around. And suck it down in the center. Yeah, there it is in the center.

"In granted, if you live somewhere that jiggery or sugar is easily available, do it. By all means, that's what you got there, but people that are living in Toronto that go to the store and buy four pounds of brown sugar and a bunch of bananas, bananas and apples from the store and go make these ferments. It's like, I like the idea, but that's kind of defeating the whole core concept of practicing. So a quick question about the grains and sprouting. Can you use other grains? Like, could you use, say, rye, without having any benefits? Yeah, no, I think maybe not. Yeah, no. I think any seed, any fast growing seeds. I have an excess of rice. Yeah. No, I think that would be fine. And you know, there's so little information and so so little quantifiable data. So that's my, I just got linked up with a lab of in Portland. They're going to do some analytics on my sprouted seed ferments because that's a lot of the pushback from the natural farming and the spread CT and especially now where there are white papers becoming available on lots of cannabis related issues that were previously not studied, not a lot of information done because it was illegal. So now we're starting to see these studies being done and people are have always questioned, you know, the K and F methodology and site where you're using osmotic pressure to harness this these enzymes and nutrients from this, but like what's the MPK value? I haven't seen there's a few people that have started to pay for the tests themselves who are trying to maybe have a bottle K and F product or some sort along those lines, but there hasn't been any reason for people to spend money to provide information to back up these claims, you know, it's like K and F farming obviously works. They've been doing it for thousands of years in Korea. That's how they, that's how the nutrients that they use to grow their crops. So obviously it works. So now people are going to see what is the process.

"I do it myself. So it's just funny to think about with them unknowingly doing all these weird things for what that practicality for them. It's actually like seeing it now and all these kind of funny. Yeah. We kind of honed it into a skill now instead of just it's a little more just a method. Yeah, a little more artsy about it, but I do the same thing. Last year I ended up, I have a 6 foot fence, okay? And so when I grow my outdoor, I don't like to go over the 6 foot because security. And so especially where I'm at. So I had the scrog. And man, I ended up probably doubling my harvest. That's awesome. Just from, I mean, but it was a while. It was like 8 foot Canopy spread out. It was funny looking anyway. But yeah, it really, really increased my total. My total volume on that one. I did want to talk to you about autos though because you were an auto winner. 21? 20 21. And yeah, and I have a fascination with autos now. I've spent 20 plus years growing photos, but I really feel like a Newbie when it comes to the autos. I know that I've worked with them for a little bit before. I don't think they're the best genetics. But I've got my hand on some good genetics now, and I'm interested in your input on autos, what you do with them, how did you do so well with them and what's your input on it? Yeah, so I think the first auto I grew was a low rider. Oh, 9 maybe 2009. And it was not even an ounce. It was a very small plant. It didn't turn out much. So that kind of really turned me off the auto flowers, like you said, that was early on in the genetics were not worked very well, very unreliable, unstable genetics.

"I have a problem in organics that's going to take two weeks before yeah, it is and it's always anticipatory. Thinking down the road and that's the big thing with IPM also instead of a reactionary process program, you have something where you anticipate problems and you're always, you know, it's like a forecast two week forecast. So for the nutrient cycling in the bed and also the environment in which the plant is growing, you're always anticipating changes, potential problems and staying ahead of that with an environment of competitive exclusion basically. So not trying to completely annihilate every organism of the room. I'm not interested in that. I'm living soil, so I want to robust the first life in the room and soil. So you don't want to start pumping these poisons into kill a particular pest, because that's going to have adverse effects on the environment in general. So instead of that, you introduce some predators that will eliminate that past and then cater to them and make sure they have an environment where they can thrive. So you're encouraging the beneficial organisms instead of attacking the potential problems. So that's how I approach the soil health and plant health in general. Create that competitive exclusion where you're setting the things that you want to succeed up for success and making it more difficult for any kind of pathogen or pest to get a foothold in the first place. So that's kind of I would imagine that was your intention from the beginning, wasn't it? Like even when you're a gorilla growing, it sounds like your intentions were fairly pure in wanting to develop and have some sort of process or as we all say now living soil, whatever, no till. Yeah, no, and there's all the nomenclature coming up in the terms for all of these things.

And we talked about before we went on, you know, you've seen a lot of people have come and gone in the last few years that we're excited to come into a new industry that was promising people saw dollar signs and rushed in and a lot of mistakes that people have never grown ever grown quantity never grown any kind of scale thinking that they could just come in and throw seeing the dirt and make a $1 million. So those people have come and gone and will continue to come and go and people like myself and there's the legacy people that have a passion for the plant and then the benefits that come along with pursuing that passion or icing on the cake for us.

I was growing and hoping to be able to find a way to turn my passion into some sort of revenue stream like a lot of people I think do and just like you said, I just kept plugging away and on the Instagram a few years ago and I felt like I had this message and I wanted to share and there's a lot of people to be honest, there's a lot of like be real honest.

"All right, so Buffalo Bills wild west I want to always want to say wild west extravaganza. You can call it that. But it was really Buffalo Bill's wild west. That was the name of his big show that he took all over the country. Delighting people with sharpshooting and horseback riding and all sorts of cool stuff enchanting America with the old west. Not just America, the world. Well, yeah, and that's a solid point. I mean, he went all over Europe, and that's why in this article points out, that's why to this day, you can go to like a pony express themed club in Germany. Because back then, he performed in front of Queen Victoria and Kaiser Wilhelm in the Pope in Rome, and basically kind of he always seemed to have at least one reported or purported pony express rider in the show. It was like one of the main segments of his show. Yeah, so at one point he did have the good Bronco Charlie Miller. No, no, no. Well, he had him, oh, pony bob haslem. Yeah, pony bob worked for him for a little while, and he is a definite, legit rider. The other guy, what's his name Bronco, Billy? Bronco Charlie Miller. Oh, no, that was Clint Eastwood. Bronco Charlie Miller claimed to have been a pony express writer. A lot of men claimed to have been over the years that were not. And they traced his timeline back. And he would have been ten or 11, which is really stretching it. It is possible it is. It's possible because they did go as low as like 13 and 14, but it was never super confirmed that this guy actually wrote for the pony express, but it kind of doesn't matter because apparently everyone loved him. Yeah, and so the reason why it's stretching it, but still in the realm of possibility is because so when William Russell, we talk about the point express in his company, he would say, these men have to take an oath, not to drink or fight, which still happened, of course. Yeah, we have like 80 people in the saddle. And in reality, yeah, they were all drunk around it all the way stations and on the trail. And the impression is that if you needed a rider and there was somebody who said, I'll go, you were a pony express rider right then. So the idea that an 11 year old kid said, I'll go, and they said, all right, fine, go. That could have possibly happened. So it's possible. Bronco Charlie Miller did bribe, but like you said, he was just such a great old west archetype. It was like a relic, yeah. They were like, whatever. We'll believe anything you say. Yeah, so through the years, like we said, a lot of bad information, a lot of legend, everything from for movies like 1953, a paramount film called the pony express. The Charlton Heston is Buffalo Bill. In the movie, Buffalo Bill teams up with Wild Bill hook Hickok to start the pony express. And as this author said, there is not a shard effect in the entire film. I don't know if he met shred. Sure. All right, he could have said though. It works. And then this, if you read this, it sounds super cool, like a notice in the St. Louis and San Francisco newspaper that said, wanted young, skinny, wiry fellows, not over 18, must be expert writers willing to risk death daily, orphans preferred. Wages $25 per week. And that seems like, man, what a great job listing for the pony express. Orphans preferred. That was written in the 20th century by a journalist in the sunset magazine. So that probably wasn't even true. No, no, that's so like, again, it was forgotten. I think Alexander majors wrote his memoirs. Remember he was one of the three guys who owned the pony express. He wrote his memoirs like 30, 40 years after the pony expresses last ride. Yeah. So, and by this time, most people had forgotten it. And again, it was Buffalo Bill who came along actually paid a visit to Alexander majors and found him in a fairly sorry state. It was very broke. He was in poor health and said, you gave me my first job when I was 11 after my father died and I want to repay you by taking care of you. So he put him in a show. He let him stay at his old scouts rest ranch in Nebraska. Just basically took care of him. But he also was like, we've got to publish this book. So he got Rand mcnally to actually publish this book about his life as a freight, old west freight legend guy, including the pony express. And that was some of the earliest documentation about it, but it also kicked off like this history of terrible documentation of just surrounding the whole thing with tall tales and embellishments and it's just very quickly became it's very tough to root fact from fiction. Even today, even at some of these places that are like, this is actually what this museum is a pony express way station. Yeah. It may not be the case. They're not entirely certain what the trail was any longer. They think that there's some pristine segments that aren't covered over by tracks of some sort that they're actually like, this is the course that the pony express took, but they're not a 100% sure. It's just got lost at the time. Yeah, I don't think we mentioned that Buffalo Bill, that job he got was as a horseback delivery writer for the initial freight company, but he never rode for the pony express, though he did he outright claimed to or just kind of let people send that. No, in the notes for the Buffalo Bills wild west show. It talked about how he was and then it would say you should buy his autobiography. It was even more. And then they would talk in depth about how he rode for the pony's first for sure. If you were from the old west of this time, you were basically expected to just lie constantly about some of the things you've done. And not just with Buffalo Bill, Wild Bill Hickok said the same thing. He worked for the pony express too. And he did, but he was one of those guys who ran a way station and tended to the horses. Lame. Well, he was bigger and older. So he couldn't write. You know, it wasn't his fault. He's a victim of circumstances. Yeah, there are also a bunch of there was a series of last living pony express riders throughout the years. Various newspapers, even sometimes multiple times in the same newspaper over the years, would print articles claiming that the last pony express rider has just died. So we don't know if any of them were or not or if they were the last or not. And it finally took a woman named a poet. Apparently not a very good one, named Mabel loving. Who said, why don't you know, was it someone actually write letters and get in touch with some of these people? And get the true dirt, and she did that. She apparently wrote letters and had some correspondence with the surviving pony express writers as an amateur poet and said, there's right before World War I. And apparently that is some of the only real documentation we have from some of the real writers that she eventually published in something called the pony express rides on exclamation point. Which apparently can still buy if you have a lot of money. Yeah. It's like a collectible, I'm sure. Yeah, I think. And supposedly printers lost a couple of the chapters. So like even if you buy a copy, it's not in its intact form because nobody took it very seriously. I think probably because of the exclamation point. It's never a good idea. No. You

"One of the big challenges in distributing the coach vaccine is trying to ensure that they don't disproportionally go to the most communities and as more people get vaccinated in the united states. We're getting more and more data about who's getting their shots. I and the data coming out of cities is well. It's painting a fairly consistent picture in the neighborhoods with the highest death rates from cova which tend to be poorer and more black and brown folks. Fewer people are getting vaccinated by contrast in wider more affluent neighborhoods. Vaccination rates tend to be higher even though a smaller percentage of people in those neighborhoods have lost their lives the virus. So here's an example map in new york city. We have data by zip code there. We should note. The same dynamic has also played out in washington. Dc and other cities so in this section of manhattan's upper east side. That's a wealthy neighborhood. There have been one hundred sixty six deaths from covid per hundred thousand people so far in that zip code sixteen percent of adults vaccinate which is great. That's good we want people to be back but now let's look at say brooklyn's east new york neighborhood much much poor much much much less white in that soco there have been a staggering eight hundred and thirty seven deaths per one hundred thousand people. Think about that. It has been hit so so much harder by the virus but in that neighborhood only five percent of adults have been fully vaccinated compared to the sixteen percent of the upper east side. Now the city not breakdown vaccine recipients by race or account for the percentage of people in a given zip code were eligible but again the broad picture. Here's pretty clear. See playing out across the city and across the country in fact in some poor neighborhoods. Only two percent of adults are fully vaccinated. Well vaccination rates are fourteen fifteen sixteen percent and richer neighborhoods. This is a huge in central problem to solve and discuss it on join. Shell gave stolberg new york times. Washington correspondent covering health policy has been writing about the vaccine rollout specifically so let's just start with the phenomenon. I want to sort of check against myself here that this is something that's happening. That's showing up data that is being produced around the country. It's not just a particularity of new york. No no this is absolutely happening around the country and you can see it in the cdc's national data. I think nationally last week African americans who account for more than eighteen percent of the population were eleven percent of those vaccinated. And we're seeing in disparities around the country here in washington where i am We had a situation where people from wealthy white neighborhoods were going into black neighborhoods to go to clinics that primarily serve underserved people to get vaccinated and it is creating a real disparity and it is completely contradictory to what president biden has said he wants which is a vaccine and a covid response that is centered on racial equity. So there it seems that there's a few factors at play here for why this is a it seems to me that there's a demand issue right is sort of people's willingness and i think we can get to that later. The first thing just seems to me it's one of those situations where a certain amount of social capital connections time or resources to other people to go through the logistics of the planning and the websites use tending to advantage. More affluent. folks is. That is that sort of your understanding of what's driving this yes. I think there's two things that are driving it in one is exactly what you say. Which is more apple and people tend to have the resources to the computers savvy the time frankly transportation to be able to get vaccinated but another big reasons vaccine heston san. We know that people of color particularly african americans are more hesitant than whites to be vaccinated in part because of the legacy of systemic racism and Government experiments like the horrific experiment that still linger in the mind. So there is that issue of hesitancy that the government is going to have to overcome. It wants to see people of color vaccinated. Yeah this is a december pull from. Ap now that's this is know almost two months old now but we we saw huge has seen the beginning huge racial disparity in terms of folks. You know fifty three percent of white people saying they're gonna get vaccinated while in twenty four percent of black folks thirty four percent of hispanic hispanic respondents now. Those numbers have changed a little bit. Even though there are still racial disparities out there examples of places where this is being dealt with forthrightly in a way that is that is sort of reintroducing a kind of equity here well i think that's hard to know in one reason that's hard to know is that the government doesn't really have great data on race the people who are vaccinated but more broadly one of the states. That is actually a really good job. Back stating across the board is west. Virginia and it has back stated i think eighty three percent of its vaccines have been administered in. It's far ahead of most states in terms of effective and quick backseat distribution.

Oh, yeah. Do you know there's a team in Las Vegas now? No what they called the Golden Knights. A golden night. Why are the wire the Golden Knights? How did that come? I believe the owner was air Force or army and wanted them to be called the Knights. But Army had its army won't add that trademark. So they went with gold Golden Knights. Uh, they have awesome jerseys. If you google it, they probably have the nice sisters in the NHL honestly. I've never had never even heard of this before. Something very interest.

You know when you have so many layers on that, like your arms are a little stiff. Remember your Katie you sometimes, But like your parents put you in one of those little zip up snowsuit things. You basically have to dress like that. And then you could be comfortable eating outside in New York City right now, That's what with those of the lengths that we're willing to go through to feel a little bit of normalcy and a little bit of freedom. And somebody found your sister sounded interested in doing this. She wants to do it. I said okay. But I did it with the snow princess and she liked it.

I've spent 16 years in special operations forces, and I believe you and I have probably been in closer proximity to each other than either of us realize the damage. Very possibly true. I spent some time with the SF folks out in in western Iraq in 2000 and seven Also had some time with SF folks in Afghanistan in 2000 and nine fire. You know, 89 I forget. Honestly, I forget. Now it's In Iraq a couple times in Afghanistan wants So, Yeah, I guess that folks were awesome. Huge, huge fan of all our special operations forces. What they do is amazing. All right, let me get back into your message here. My question is simple. I agree that what happened the capital last week was not appropriate and accomplishes nothing positive. The question. I keep asking, and no one will give me an answer. What line will need to be cross for it to become a whatever it takes scenario. That's conservative Americans. We've always maintained the reason the Second Amendment is in places to overthrow an oppressive government. But it seems like even though we say that what we really mean is if China is literally invading our shores. That's why we have guns never to overthrow our government. I mean, Dan, So So let me let me work at this going backwards on Thank you for your service, sir. And thank you for writing in Yes, The Second Amendment is a check against an ultimate check against government tyranny. And it is true that for a lot of people, and I'm always reminded of that line attributed to I believe it's Admiral. Uh, Yemma Moto. That you could never invade America because there's a rifle behind every blade of grass, right? You could ever meet. Invade successfully Mainland America, the Japanese as as a interesting Just an interesting point of history did just to show they could Invade the 50 50 states and hold territory. I know they bombed Pearl Harbor, Brimmer. They never held Pearl Harbor they actually did, invade and hold US territory in the 50 states. To island in the Alaskan. I believe it's off the illusion Island chain ought to island the Japanese seized it. So that they could for really for propaganda purposes, say we are holding US territory, and there's some very brutal fighting there. And the Marines had to go and take it back. And then the the Japanese who had invaded made essentially a kamikaze charge and they went for the field hospital specifically of where American wounded were being held. I mean, it was really Really a vicious affair, but yeah, ought to island The Japanese did hold U S Territory of World War two for it for a pretty short period of time, but they didn't hold it. As for China, invading our shores, yes, of course. And if we did have a foreign invasion of the United States, then all of a sudden, I think at that point, even even most of the left wing gun grabbers would be very excited about all their neighbors who have a R 15 In that scenario, I think that even they a lot of them would say this is great. There's some some anecdotes. I think Charlton Heston actually told the anecdote once that People were asking him if they could borrow guns during the Los Angeles riots as bad as those God because I wanted to defend their homes and their in their businesses. So you know, A lot of people are anti gun until all of a sudden there's a massive mob burning down stores and businesses near them, and then they want to defend themselves. As for when we would reach that check Where the the government I think the answer is, you would know. Meaning. You know it when we're there, you know it because The government has lost all legitimacy and is engaged in in.

Are Some People Immune to Mosquitoes?
"And here in Georgia or getting our first mosquitoes of the year for me. That means I got a bunch of bytes when I ventured outside for a socially distant walk yesterday but are some people immune to mosquitoes brain stuff. It's Christian Sager. If you're like most people you hate mosquitoes. They're kind of the Andy Dick of the insect world annoying and in some cases dangerous. If we rate animals by the number of deaths they cause these little bloodsuckers top the charts by a wide margin and this is due to their transmission of malaria and other harmful diseases. And whether your next mosquito bite causes serious illness or intense frustration. We can all agree. Mosquitoes are just the worst. But are some people immune to mosquito bites I? Let's be clear mosquito. Bites aren't actually bites when a mosquito lands on you she uses her purpose it's a long double tube mouthpiece to Pierce your skin and get at the blood underneath and yes. That's a she every single mosquito that has ever been. You has been female. They bite you because they need a protein in your blood to develop their eggs when a mosquito uses her antenna to sense the warm blood beneath your skin and then pops her bosses in to tap your capillaries one of those tubes inject saliva. While the other one withdraws blood. The saliva contains enzymes that act as a Mild Painkiller and thins the blood to prevent. Clotting your body interprets these enzymes foreign invaders and produces histamine histamine binds to receptors in the bite area dilating local blood vessels this increased blood flow summons. More white blood cells. And when you get too much histamine the bite area can swell and redden creating what's called a wheel yeah wheel. That's the word of the day now. Each person will react to a bite. Differently and your allergies will vary so. What makes a mosquito choose a certain person? Well there are a number of factors one of the biggest being that there are more than three thousand known varieties of mosquitoes. And they're not all looking for the same thing for those that dig a nice sip of human blood smell body temperature. In genetics play huge roles. According to scientists at Rotterdam research each human body can produce anywhere from three hundred to four hundred distinct chemical odors. Some of which are bug magnets and others. They might be bug. Repellent research from a chemist named all. Rick Burke shows that mosquitoes are particularly fond of carbon dioxide. That's released from explanation and the skin and they also like lactic acid which present on our skin after exercise now drinking beer being pregnant and being a bigger person can all also make you more attractive to Mosquitos. Diet and blood type. Surprisingly don't seem to matter so much. Everybody has these yummy chemicals on their body. But it seems that the people mosquitoes avoid produce higher amounts of repellent chemicals Dr James Logan from Rotterdam set up a pretty weird experiment to see if he could find these all important. Repellent Chemicals is teams separated people into two groups MOSQUITO FAVORITES AND MOSQUITO MS. They put these folks in body size foil bags to collect their odors for two hours and they used a chromatograph to analyze the chemicals. They'd collected and hooked electrodes up to mosquito antenna to see what the bugs thought of each smell. They found about seven or eight made a difference. These odors were present insignificantly different quantities between those people who were attractive to Mosquitos and those who weren't their study published in the Journal of Medical. Entomology cited to chemicals as significantly repellent. One called six methyl five Heston to one which apparently smells of Nail Polish remover. And another called Jared Acetone which has a kind of floral odor as of this recording the race to use these and other chemicals as a new. Super Bug. Repellent is in full swing. So you probably know that. Bacteria is largely responsible for the various smells of the human body. Each human being is home to a unique mix of trillions of microbes. It's sort of like a fingerprint now. Our genes may play a large role. In determining what sort of microbial life forms we end up hosting in two thousand fifteen a team led by doctor. Manuela Fernandez grand untested the Herod ability of attractiveness to mosquitoes using twins. The twins would put a hand into either end of a sealed dome along with twenty female mosquitoes. Now don't worry. They weren't allowed to bite. Researchers gave each subject in attractiveness score compared to the other hand identical twins had consistently more similar scores compared to fraternal twins so genes do seem to play a role. This may be tough news for the twenty percent or so of people that mosquitoes find particularly attractive. If you're one of the local mosquitoes favorite dishes. Remember to keep some kind of bug repellent with you and to wear long sleeves and pants if the weather allows especially in areas of the world where these bugs carried diseases like malaria or dengue. And I suppose there's a little light at the end of this mosquito net tunnel here. Some people do have a chance of building up a tolerance after repeated mosquito bites but for others. The allergy just

So I'm very very thankful to finally do thank you So I always like to Divan kind of with your educational background was. I don't think we've had a PA on yet. So I'm very excited. Your first yes. So yeah like what What made you WanNa be a physician's assistant. Yeah absolutely so I originally was going the the premed bath and I went over to Kenya just to see. 'cause the entire reason for medicine. Was this vision this Michigan Of going reaching these vulnerable children and I saw the urgency And I knew I didn't want to be in school for thirty years. And so yes going over there. I met these people called clinical officers. It's a kind of like a middle level that term position in in Kenya and I was like I wonder if we have anything like that in the US. Very Small Town in Kentucky and so I really didn't know what was I had one. I always in a car accident and fractured my neck when I was eighteen and actually went to a Pi had no idea. Oh my God but yeah it was actually being in Kenya immediately. Clinical officers there. That had me exploring for faster ways to get to Kenya with a degree that could. Wow Oh that's so so then When did you actually? I go to Kenya when I was twenty years old so Seven years ago. Yeah Wow and that was primarily just for like Like a religious like mission trip or exploration. I felt I felt the call just pulling a question had to do anything with your life. What would it be and why in answering question That I would love to go and find older and and give them the medical treatment that they need It was such Just I always laugh a pageant girl had been I in pageants I knew the onstage and was in my heart but I didn't know it was never pursued that and just said well. Why aren't you doing that and I was so convicted? I dropped my major. I didn't know what medicine mid there's not even your doctor anything in my entire family tree that I know Major before that I did broadcasting. Yeah I was. I love public speaking. I thought about speech therapy a little bit Have is just completely. What like what is medicine. What goes into this and I had been a straight A. Student and I was like. Oh well you know this is fine. I'm in Honors College. I've a four point. Oh it can't be that bad premed. That's for smart people and remember. I felt across the first semester. I was like Oh my word like I am I am not only am I not gifted at this? But I'm really like an I I don't want to fail at anything. Yeah And so I was like God like how could you have me doing something you know that that I'm not gifted in like don't you people in what you want them to do? And I just remember finding my competence in the fact that like this degree was going to enable me to access these children know whether I was the best or the worst clinician. There ever was like getting to know their names getting another diseases. Into prayer in them and the specific things was going to be gift. And God's going to figure out the rest Oh Wow okay. So school was not that easy. It was easy it was not easy. It got better. I'm very I feel like I'm emotionally intelligent. It when I can see my patient as like I remember the drugs that were sitting next to them. I remember being on Heston because of like a clinical experience I could remember like the drugs and the doses because I put it with the person. Yeah Chemistry and like all of the pre recs. I guess for medicine that was that was my hardship of everything. I've been through and Africa everywhere like that was my sacrifice that was my hardship through that pre medical but once. I got to the place where it was. Patient centered and and the emotion. That's when school became by you to you. Play all your knowledge to practice at Ascoli. Yeah 'cause nursing's goals not easy. Oh no I literally. I don't know how I made it through there. I think like a B minus be plus sometimes see and but that doesn't negate the fact that you were an amazing provider you know. Yeah no one in my class. Yeah by the grace of God is able to get through. Pa school very well but it was. You know that was. That was a struggle and I like to be open and honest about that because I know there's so many people out there who feel like you know. Oh I can't go into medicine. I can't even sit for this interview because I have You know I don't have a four point. Oh and there were many people. There are people who got my class who had four point in interviewed five times before they got in and I had on. My transcript still had a three point seven. I was from owners. I worked hard to get things to where they looked impressive. But ultimately I had blueberries that a lot of people think that's out a class now no one will ever look at me and I did apply to one school and I got in because my passion knew by heart and my drive.

Spike Lee is first black person to lead Cannes Film Festival jury
"So just a little recap the SAG awards were handed out last night in LA so the south Korean film parasite made history for its win for best ensemble the film while winning this still the awards were still criticized for its lack of diversity which is a big conversation that's happening you might have heard of the Oscar so white hashtags back in the headlines again the entire Best Director category this year is made primarily up of white guys the acting categories a pretty way to know Jennifer Lopez for hustler is no Lupita nyong'o who's hurting us no one from dolomite is my name this left a lot of critics prize discouraged at the lack of representation then at the Cannes Film Festival they threw a curve ball the announce the Spike Lee is the new president of the Cannes jury he's that legendary filmmaker behind films like do the right thing and jungle fever black Klansmen now Spike Lee is the first black person to ever lead the Cannes jury and seventy three year history come back all this it's our Q. screen panel here in the studio John Semele Antena sending it right about TV movie arts and culture hi guys hello hi so this is so much going on there's so much to talk about him to start with you can give us a quick like history especially in cans okay so back in the eighties when spike was young and you know excited to show his movies to the world he won a youth prize with she's gotta have it and then he came back in nineteen eighty nine with do the right thing and it was like the front runner to win some big award but it didn't it ended up not winning not even a single prize and Spike Lee you is not so happy about that and he ended up blaming the jury presidents filmmaker them vendors and he had some price words for him it he said I have the quote right here vin had better watch out because I'm waiting for his **** somewhere deep in my closet I have a Louisville slugger bats with vendors and name on it okay so so so small and most likely was back at camp twenty eighteen with a black Klansmen here is at the press conference United States America was built upon the genocide of native people and slavery that is the fabric of the United States America as my book on brother JZ was say fax we on the right side of history with this film so I want to point out that the reason we're broke rehashing all this is because basically is as a big job can right now so John is this going to be the fact that he's leaving the jury a bit of a wake up call well as ever I'm of two minds about it I mean I would be hesitant to use being jury president of a prestigious Film Festival where everyone wears tuxedos in the south of France and some sort of bell weather for representation and diversity in Hollywood that's it it is something I mean as you said there has never been a black jury had in the history of the festival and I think that the palm d'or which this jury awards that's the price of the award it's still I would say the most prestigious award in cinema it is a way of sort of drumming up interest in a film I mean parasite which you just won't stop gushing about overflowing toilets in Paris but for you should go watch it again for the third time I think so you will I want to point out I would believe that John was the first one to like say me a Twitter DM being like Hey man you could check up and all of a sudden they do it on the for the heck say when the palm d'or which sort of started this journey that it's on now so it is certainly a way that you can generate interest in a film and I think it speaks often to a filmmaker status I think people will be watching to see what films Spike Lee finds interesting and I don't know I think he's made a lot of good films and he's made a lot of social films but I love the guy and I'm happy form I think it's like just an interesting like historically if you if you look at it historically the beef that's been going on between spike and and can you know like back in the eighties like back to do the right thing I I don't know he he had some choice words and and I don't know like it was Sally fields apparently who is like feeding him all this information about how long his victim yeah who didn't like do the right thing didn't think that like the ending was really worth it all this stuff and I guess he just didn't get the movie you know so yeah and apparently spike came out after that saying that what he said was stupid and immature and you know I guess in twenty eighteen he did when the ground pre awards black Klansman so he's I don't know ease down to three as we do the right thing I mean it's not one of the major American films ever made teen I we just talked with the spikes two thousand movie bamboozled is coming out from the criterion collection on home
