"Council members and because they have more life experience. Because I tend to be one of the younger candidates and I'm still the youngest candidate in our tribal race and it's interesting because that's just the way that our nation's going as a younger and younger. So we need to make sure that we prepare our nation to have these younger people take over. And I think that and again, learning from elders, being able to listen to community members like Jed and just support them when they give good words of support. Also, as criticism, that's fine. As long as there's some truth to it and we're able to have a constructive dialog, that's going to lead to a productive outcome. That's all you really want. I mean, that comes with the territory is getting criticized. But at the same time, it's being able to learn from it, but also being able to correct it and move forward. Okay, we're talking about learning and moving forward. I want to ask you, I mean, what are some mistakes that you've made as a leader? And what did you learn from those missteps? I mean, I think one of the well, you know. I think one of the biggest things that I learned, being in this office is that we need to make sure that we're always when we see stuff. When you say something that people fully understand what we're talking about, you know, and not to. Not to leave out details or leave out things because it's often those small details that kind of get misconstrued or misinterpreted or become misinformation. And I think that's one of the things that just learning about how do we do this in a better way. That's something that we can all learn from. And just learning for your mistakes.

I think unless we suddenly come to our senses and unite as a country we do not have the the the national unity required to go in and win anymore. And i think at this point you know it's questionable whether we would even fight even if we got hit again. What about the fate of those americans. I've heard estimates anywhere from one to two hundred. Maybe five hundred. Maybe a thousand. You've got to sixty five thousand of those afghan. Interpreters in their families are left behind. Will those americans get out. I mean. I'm astounded at the number of courageous veteran. Veteran's group a nonprofit organizations ngos that are going into afghanistan under the radar and doing the work that well the administration should have been behind. Now i think some will get out. I think most will not and you're right. It's an unknown number. It could be five hundred. Could be five thousand so you know. A lot of these people will be simply murdered. A lot of them will be paraded in front of the media and then murdered some of will be held for hot in the huddle how hostage for ransom and some will. Just be enslaved. I mean.

The wars not over because we quit and retreated the war continues and the taliban war and the slavic fascist war against us continues and they will continue until we either lose completely or we defeat them decisively. Well and other bad actors are watching Russia china primary examples. What will rush now do with ukraine. What will china do. what taiwan. Oh and then. We have north korea. Starting it's a nuclear testing once again. Well and don't forget we see nato now saying well. We can't rely on america anymore. So we nato are going to form our own european defense force. Well no they won't they won't spend the money on it. They will posture march around. You know jut their chests out. They won't do a damn thing but you're right. I mean obviously. Russia is going to continue. Its aggression whether it's ukraine or other places don't forget russia and china and iran are all kind of competing sometimes the competing and sometimes they're cooperating to try to dominate the entire middle east. And you know. Israel's caught in the middle of course so we've got a very big problem now because we've got the weakest president in american history. The most incompetent president in american history dealing with all of these very complex challenges. And he's dealing with it unsuccessfully group of about sixty retired generals if i'm not mistaking pending a letter calling for joe biden's resignation. Well blinken on down the line but would that put us in a more precarious situation. All i don't know i think you know if we got rid of a lot of the people and replace them with better people. That would be a good thing but the problem is joe quits. Then you've got kamala who is probably even more incompetent than he is. And you know after that you get nancy.

"The taliban connie network to protect our people would probably not have stuck with that thirty one august deadline which was completely arbitrary and we probably wouldn't have left behind enough airpower and so forth. Well as far as i can tell. And don't hold me precisely because the calculation. But i understand that from what we left behind the. The taliban now has a spitzer sixth largest air force in the world and they have more equipment and more weaponry than any criminal enterprises we left behind all of these. So called toys air quotes. I mean what. I've heard upward of eighty to ninety billion dollars worth of Aircraft and helicopters jeeps humvees and weaponry. That's all going to go back. Not all of it but much of it's all going to go back into the tarum terrorists network because well. The taliban needs money. they're going to sell it sure. Well they're going to sell a lot of it to china and russia to re engineer. Our systems don't forget we've left behind very sophisticated. Help us helicopters Some attack aircraft including attack helicopters. And you know all of that stuff not to mention We left behind a lot of anti missile anti artillery systems You know i. I don't know what else we've left behind the just the stuff that was abandoned by the so-called african national security force including the biometric systems which the taliban now have that enable them to identify without doubt all of the people who have helped over twenty years. And you know frankly kill them. Well no no no remember. Jed of the taliban went on this. Pr campaign. interestingly enough on twitter of all social media sources president trump seemingly forever banned from twitter old. but not the taliban promising sunshine lollipops and rainbows and unicorns. Why they're a kinder gentler taliban and they would give amnesty to those who served as interpreters to the us stood shoulder to shoulder with the us military and others for twenty years while except for the fact that they're already executing some of these people and they're gonna execute a lot more an awful lot going on around and afghanistan right now and you know the fact is the washington post and the rest of the liberal media are gonna be apologizing and protecting biden within twenty four hours.

"That rely heavily on statistics. Okay let me ask you again for a friend about This alchemy thing. You know it'd be nice to create gold but also seems to Come into play quite a bit. Throughout the history of science at perhaps in positive ways in terms of its impact. Can you say something to the history of alchemy a little bit and its impact. Sure it used to be thought two things. One that alchemy which dates certainly back to the islamic period in islam You're talking on eleventh twelfth. Thirteenth centuries among islamic natural philosophers and experimenters albums used to be thought that All me which picked up strikingly in the fifteenth sixteenth century. Fifteen hundreds in thereabouts Was a sort of mystical procedure involving all sorts of strange notions and so on and that's not entirely untrue. But it is substantially on true in that all commenced were engaged in what was known as chris. Oh poi- yeah that is looking for ways to transform Invaluable materials into valuable ones but in the process of doing so or attempting to do so. They learned how to create complex amalgams of various kinds. They used very elaborate apparatus glass olympics in which they would use heat to produce chemical compositions. They would write down and observe these. Compositions and many of the so-called really strange looking out chemical formulas in statements where they'll say something like i can't produce it but it'll be the sole of mars will come by with the this etc cetera. These it has been shown are almost all actual formula for how to engage in the production of complex amalgams And what to do. And by the time of newton newton was reading the works of a fellow by the name of starkey was actually came from harvard Shortly before in which things have progressed if you will to the point where the procedure turns into what historian co chris. Oh poi- which basically runs into the notion of thinking that made these things are made out of particles. This is the mechanical loss affi. Can we engage in proceess chemical processes to rearrange these things which is not so stupid after all. I mean we do it except we happened to do it. In reactors not in chemical processes. Unless of course it had happened that cold fusion had worked which didn't my right but So that's the way they're thinking about these things. There's a kind of mix and newton engages extensively in those sorts of manipulations in fact more in that than almost anything else except for his optical investigations. If you look through the latter parts of the sixteen seventies the last five six seven years or so of that is more on that than there is on anything else. He's not working on mechanics. he's pretty much gone. Pretty far and optics. He'll turn back to optics later on so optics and alchemy. So will you're saying is isaac. Newton liked shiny things. Well actually if you go online and look at what. Bill newman. The professor indiana at bloomington indiana has produced. You'll find the very shiny thing. Called the star regulus which newton describes as having produced according to a particular way which newman figured out and was able to do it. And it's very shiny there. You go proves that their gasquet ball god religion and its role in unions life. Was there.

"Is there something you could say. Broadly about either that work on optics supreme. Kp itself as a something that. I've never actually looked at as a piece of work. Is it powerful in itself or is it just an important moment in history in terms of the amount of inventions within the amount of ideas that within or is it a really powerful working itself. Well it is a powerful work in itself you can see this This guy coming to grips with and pushing through and working his way around complicated and difficult issues melding Experimental situations which nobody had worked with before even discovering new things trying to figure out ways of putting this together with mathematical structures succeeding and failing at the same time and we can see him doing that. I mean what is what is contained within principia. I don't even know in terms of the scope pro all right. Is it the entirety of the body of work of a new. No no no the principia mathematica as you countless. Well he alright so. The principia is divided into three books. Excellent book one contained his version of the laws of motion and the application of those laws to figure out when a body moves in certain curves and is forced move in those curves by forces directed to certain fixed points. What is the nature of the mathematical formula for those forces. That's all that book. One is about and it contained not the kind of version of the calculus that uses algebra of the sort that i was trying to explain before but is done in terms of Ratios between geometric line segments. When one of the line segment goes very very small. It's called the kind of limiting procedure which is calculus. But it's a geometrically structured although. It's clearly got algebraic elements in it as well and that makes the print hippias mathematical structure rather hard for people. Who aren't studying it today to Go back to book.

"Of newton because he didn't publish this thing. Although i he became quite well known as quite brilliant young man in part because people heard about his work and so on a when another young man by the name of godfrey live nets visited london and he heard about these things i it is said that he independently develops His form of the calculus which is actually the form we use today both in notation and perhaps in certain fundamental ways of thinking it has remained a controversial point as to where exactly and how much independently leibnitz did it live. Knits aficionados think and continue to maintain. He did it completely independently newton when he became president of the royal society. Put together a group to go on the attack saying no. He butts taken everything. We don't know But i will tell you this about Twenty five or so years ago a scholar. Who's a professor at indiana. Now name domenico melli got his hands on a live. Knits manuscript called the ten taman which was leibnitz his attempt to produce an alternative to newton's mechanics and it comes to some conclusions that you have in the newton's mechanics will he published that but meli got the manuscript and would meli found out was that leibnitz reverse engineered the principia and cooked it backwards so that he could get the results he wanted. Now's for the mechanics. So that means his mind allows for that kind of thing some people. They're breaking so today. You're starting suddenly romo. Some people think so. I think most historians of mathematics do not agree with that A friend of mine rather well known. Physicists unfortunately died a couple of years ago and they might now enberg at uc. Santa cruz had some evidence along. Those lines didn't pass muster with many of my friends who are historians of math. In fact i added with a historian of maffei technical journal and we were unable to publish it in there because we couldn't get it through any of our colleagues But i am i remain. What is it about those tense relationships and that kind of drama. Einstein doesn't appear to have much of that drama. Nobody claimed. I haven't heard claims that they've grabs because such crazy ideas of any of his major Inventions major ideas being those. That are Basically i came up with i or independently. There's not as far as worn that many people talking about general relativity especially in those terms but with newton. That was the case i mean.

Carl Levin, Michigan's Longest Serving US Senator, Dies at 87
"First elected to congress in nineteen seventy-eight michigan's longest serving senator chaired the powerful armed services committee. He was very active around civil rights local development and protecting american workers having interviewed senator levin and read his memoir. Getting to the heart of the matter. I have some reflections. I imagined that if senator levin had a role in a television show he'd be fictional president. Jed bartlett's closest ally in the west wing practical and patriotic levin's thirty six years in the upper chamber as a democrat had paradoxes a democrat who investigated spending and financial excess in government as well as wall street a staunch believer as chair of the senate armed services committee. That america has a strong role to play in the world but voted against the second iraq. War levin was consistent with himself. He was a man who spent decades of politics. But i sense. He felt good about his impact when he saw himself in the mirror. Getting the heart of the matter reminds me of the writings of ben franklin. The similarities with the founding father aren't just physical appearance surprising wit and clearly understandable style both levin and franklin shared the belief that the long game mattered that even if it wasn't politically popular in the moment moment to make things happen in a country with a lot of people with differing views. You shouldn't always take everything off the table for your opponent that making is how democracy actually works his memoir is a blueprint without saying it and how we might put the broken engine of american democracy back together again. Levin rhetorically lays the parts on the table. I won't get into all of them. But they include the broken filibuster where he called out his own party for creating it then in order for an electorate and your colleagues to trust you you need to have a consistent northstar and compass and he's right if you look at the popular senior senator from vermont. The reason that he gets photo shopped everywhere sitting on a chair isn't because of any particular political stance it's because whether they agree or not people connect with him because they believe that he is who he says he is.

It's a nontraditional path for a kid coming out of school yet to companies that. I think you found it. You're stuck with it. So could you tell us about that adventure in what leadership lessons most importantly you took from that time forward into the person you are today. Well yeah i mean. I think that i mean i still consider myself an entrepreneur today and And i think the entrepreneur spirit has helped me move Along in my career in push a different companies to continue diversifying evolve And it also you know when you. So yeah i was part of a group that started die magazine and then we bought another magazine and then we had an online digital network of sites and then we had an agency combined for fifty and all of which are were have been really successful And but you don't get there without a lot of hard work and hustle and also a lot of help and a lot of humility. Either you make a lot of mistakes along the way You apologize for a lot of things that you didn't. You don't even think that you did wrong because you can't afford to lose business and it's just easier to apologize so there's you know you learn a lot that and a lot of those things that i've learned i've applied to the i went to a middle amid sized company. Midsize individually owned company or family. Owned i should say with modell's sporting goods for a couple of years and then i went to a bigger public corporation philoxenia taken all the learnings along the way but the thing that the biggest things that hasn't left me from that startup culture is being an entrepreneur. And what comes with it and that is hard work hustle and humility. I used to say that. I wasn't all i wasn't just the person who was pitching but i was also the person sometimes creating and i was also put person depositing checks at the bank. You know what i mean like like an and and if anybody came into our office at that point and we're above that i to me that was you know that pretense was not cool. What are you proudest about in those years. When you build dime you bill. Ninety four by fifty. It still amazing to me today.

"This before. I think there was a point in in our business where the design was sometimes not connected to the story and instead the design was being inspired by a story and what what tended to happen. There is that design. We're getting made. But you couldn't relate the two together because of rights or it wasn't it wasn't close enough brought together and then the product was handed off to a bunch of marketing people in the last six weeks instead. Go figure out how to bring this to market. And that i did not like and i think a big chains at the industry and a whole and i would like to think that we were a part of this change in And what we the way they are cheesy way of explaining that was we wanted concepts over color ways Was we really wanted. The idea to be routed into the design and whether that was a license or third party or creator or a traditional way of collaborating or in idea we wanted it routed into the design and that makes the storytelling of the product.

Dc of course and then instead of joining a big company like i did you know png you basically did start up work with companies that you found it and you did that for eight years and then joined the aesthetic. Yeah yeah do that. For and then you join modell's you know and and and then you ended up at footlocker but tell us about that. It's a nontraditional path for a kid coming out of school yet to companies that. I think you found it. You're stuck with it. So could you tell us about that adventure in what leadership lessons most importantly you took from that time forward into the person you are today. Well yeah i mean. I think that i mean i still consider myself an entrepreneur today and And i think the entrepreneur spirit has helped me move Along in my career in push a different companies to continue diversifying evolve And it also you know when you. So yeah i was part of a group that started die magazine and then we bought another magazine and then we had an online digital network of sites and then we had an agency combined for fifty and all of which are were have been really successful And but you don't get there without a lot of hard work and hustle and also a lot of help and a lot of humility. Either you make a lot of mistakes along the way You apologize for a lot of things that you didn't. You don't even think that you did wrong because you can't afford to lose business and it's just easier to apologize so there's you know you learn a lot that and a lot of those things that i've learned i've applied to the i went to a middle amid sized company. Midsize individually owned company or family. Owned i should say with modell's sporting goods for a couple of years and then i went to a bigger public corporation philoxenia taken all the learnings along the way but the thing that the biggest things that hasn't left me from that startup culture is being an entrepreneur. And what comes with it and that is hard work hustle and humility. I used to say that. I wasn't all i wasn't just the person who was pitching but i was also the person sometimes creating and i was also put person depositing checks at the bank. You know what i mean like like an and and if anybody came into our office at that point and we're above that i to me that was you know that pretense was not cool. What are you proudest about in those years. When you build dime you bill. Ninety four by fifty. It still amazing to me today.

"My journey before we get too far into this podcast. Jed you've also been a podcast host. I discovered as i research your life so and you had a really good host. So could you tell us a bit about your experience. Podcast host with your co host. So i have to tell you something. I really respect your research because nobody has ever asked me. This like legitimately like except for my few friends who knew who know about this. It's funny so there was. There was a while where. I have two boys. My older son who is continues to be my best friend in the world is now almost seventeen and One thing about having a a kid somewhat young as you kinda grew up together and we're and we're still best of friends and So anyway we had we had. We started a podcast together when he was young. We call it sundays. Burglars okay. We did over one hundred episodes. Wow and you know i. It's i wish he would still do it with me. But he's he's gone teen on me and they were short just every sunday night we would. We would talk about. I would try to of course talk about life and he would of course try to talk about like wrestling. Wwe wrestling and sports. And but you know you know i. It was really good. I have another. I have another little boy with special needs and so it was a good way of of sort of exploring life together and sort of talking through what was going on seeing him grow up and it was. It was a It it still is a special time but the the sunday's burgers podcast which we did put on on itunes and we made it pretty official so it was it was. It was really cool. It's still out there. Well i found all but let's there's myself promotion. Please look up. Sunday's burglars we did one hundred episodes and if you if you love a conversation between a father and like an eleven year old boy go for it. My guess is deloitte. Did not sponsor that podcast. Yeah we shockingly didn't have a sponsor we did joke all the time that we had millions of millions of listeners. We've really had my mother period. Yeah there's a few more than that. But i get it. Hey jet i want start before jumping into your career with a big strategy question and you know you've been in the sneaker category in one way shape or form for all of your career i would say And it's a category that's had a growth rate that others would envy a crazy growth rate and even the next five years projected to grow at seven percent a year. And that doesn't happen by accident. So could you reflect a bit for our listeners. Who are working in categories that they would love to stimulate and grow. What have you learned by being a part of this and a leader in it in a category that very very few categories in the world have grown at this at this clip for the last twenty years and are projected to grow for the next five or ten years. Yeah i mean. I ultimately have worked in either basketball or sneakers in some way or sports in some way shape or form and they're and they're all extremely connected and they moved together first of all. And you know i think that it were first of all i say. Thank you sneakers. Thank you sneaker culture. I feel very fortunate that sneaker culture is such a passion point of youth and and the youth culture mindset because it goes way beyond young people to be totally honest with you. And you know. I think there's a ton of reasons. There's incredible stories and design and art that's rooted in so there's there's tons of pieces of culture that is rooted in sneaker design. And it's it's it's also very accessible culture and for the most part sneakers you know where you know sneakers. i'm not saying sneakers are cheap. But they're accessible right and there are a piece of culture in a piece of social currency that is whatever fifty to two hundred fifty dollars. And they're and amazing thing is that there is There's a connection point at both ranges of the spectrum. You know air force one is the most iconic sheer in the entire world under one hundred dollars and it means so much to be know and you can say that for a bunch of different sneakers vans connects to a consumer in an incredible ways and is under one hundred dollars. And so it's it's really nice when culture and art and connected stories and athletes and music and musicians and Or 'cause they're all they're all part of sneaker design and sneaker culture and it's and it's and it's the reason that it continues because those stories are those stories are endless and and i feel fortunate. I tell people all the time that i sort of grown to not like marketing as much as i used but what i do love is a great idea and i love a great idea connected to great product and i love the idea of telling that idea and that product story and that is what makes sneaker culture so amazing. It's great idea. Great product with a great story it's not fabricated at all. It's truly authentic. So why don't you like marketing as much as you used to. I don't like marketing. For the sake of marketing. I like authenticity and i liked context and i love great storytelling. But i need context. I need context. And and i think that the best and i wanna be a business partner i and i think when you separate the two ends up to be marketing for the sake of marketing and when you bring the two together you're bringing in the connection of idea and product and story and that's where the amazing thing happens so again if marketing is the blend of those three things and telling incredible connected products stories. I think that's amazing. If marketing is being done with the absence of the connection to context. Which often is i. I struggle with that. How do you be sure. That doesn't happen at footlocker. How do you keep marketing connected to business and context. Well a. we're fortunate to have tremendous talent in the company in tremendous individuals and tremendous leadership. And so i think that's paramount. I also think like. I said we're we're blessed with having great connected product stories and And great partners to who make amazing products We have incredible consumer platforms to tell those stories on where consumers are hungry to learn. So i i mean it. you know. It's another reason that sneaker cultures continued to boom. There's an aggregate of audience on on something like an instagram. That that is just wants to consume sneaker culture so so as technology and social as advanced it's it's increased the passion for sneakers and made our ability to story. Tell all that much more. Easy i i will say That and i think this is really important You know i've said.

"What's the first brand. You remember having an impact on you as a young kid. Honestly i really wanted a pair of kangaroos. I remember wanting a pair kangaroos and that that i went to nike i. I don't remember the bridge in between. But you know i remember. I was literally talking about nike flight. Lights the other day. I was probably really young and i wanted the kangaroos and there was like it had a place where like stored a quarter. This is crazy. And i was like super into that But you know. Honestly it didn't take me long to be into nike hoop shoes and i love hoop and i love basketball. So that was you know it's the same. Today they're synonymous with each other. So i i love. Sports and nike was always present their. Im stangl and i helped major brands find a purpose and activate it in the prophets. Follow for seven years. I was the global marketing officer for procter and gamble where he oversaw the marketing of hundreds of brands. You may not know it. But the cmo's chief marketing officers of all of your favorite brands are trying to connect you with your favorite products and services through purpose and on this show. I delve into how they do it today. My guest on the cmo. Podcast is jed burger but global chief marketing officer for footlocker inc the purveyor of sportswear and sneakers with about seven and a half billion dollars from its operations. In twenty seven countries footlocker ink is actually a portfolio brand company with brands. Such as champs east bay sidestep and kids footlocker that flanked the flagship brand footlocker and coming out of cova vid. The company sales are surging. Mike guess jed has been at footlocker for ten years and he is relentless quest to continually reinvent the company and himself footlocker stock price has tripled in the ten years. Jed has been with the company. Jed is a sports loving. Dad is dream is to manage the boston red sox someday and he loves the smell of new sneakers. This is my conversation with jed burger. Hey jed welcome to the cmo podcast. We had originally scheduled this podcast. Just as pandemic was hitting in early twenty twenty and just as you were named global marketing officer at footlocker after being north america for about three years. So i wanna know. Are you more relaxed now than you would have been back in early. Twenty twenty definitely not. I don't know if that is because of the new job or just. The overarching landscaper. Just life in its in itself. But i wouldn't call myself more relaxed. I would say that i am. I would say that. I am a human being with balance and perspective and and i do have the ability to separate work from from home. So that's helpful super. How are you a different leader. Now jed than the jet. I would have spoken to back in early. Twenty twenty after going through the last sixteen seventeen months. I think i always tried to be someone with Empathy and Like i talked about before perspective. And i think that's been and i should also add. Someone was self-awareness. So i think those are things that have been helpful as we've gone through the last sixteen seventeen months I've also learned. I have learned an incredible amount. That i think i've applied to to my work life. And and you know. I think the teams or zoom in this case life has really forced The cross functional communication even more than it already was and i'd say that that I tell people all the time that cross functional communication and and the and the art of bringing people along is a skill in not just in the locker in which is a phenomenal company. But in in in small or mid size or bigger corporations On i think that my ability to be a better cross functional communicator and to bring along a whole lot of global entities. has has improved. You know You know the the chief marketing role is as much of a of an influence or role in the organization as it is anything else and that took some time to learn. And i'm still learning about that. I make far less decisions in this job than i do. At than i. Than i have in previous Jobs but i- influence many many more significant decisions in this job than i than i did previously and that that that's a significant Learning and and when you're going through issues of co vidor Or the the incredibly intense social issues that have happened over the last eighteen months You know you really have to apply all those cross. Functional empathetic and skills in perspective To your everyday work life as well as your personal life. So i've learned a lot about how to do that when i was. Cmo at png. It was it was an influence job. And i grew up. You know doing brands and business units as you did. How did you adjust to that. How did you move from being sort of a line manager making decisions putting things into the market supporting things with creators to this global job which you know is is an influence job. How did you. How did you become good at that. Well i think first of all. I was ready. You know i. I believe that. I believe i was ready and i also believe that the company was ready. I think that it was it was a really so i i became i was. I was the head of marketing for footlocker. Kids fall locker and lady for locker and and to your point my my job was to go to market and my team was to go to market and we daily decisions that we had to make and and we were we were in campaign mode all the time and you know and and prioritization on all the time but micro priorities can win your footlocker. It's an interesting situation because there's so many products that you're launching all the time and what priority number one is to some people is probably number thirty seven. Maybe you but you really do need to get them done. And that's and that's a very tactical approach show. So i think it was. I think it was a good thing for me. I think i was ready to be a little bit. More higher level and strategic and i think the organization was ready for a new tactical approach and a new strategic approach at the every day footlocker north america world. So so. i think that. That's the first and foremost i company and myself were. Were both ready. And and again. I i say this all the time to you know the the company expects you to be ready they might accompanying may not plan for your career but they certainly expect you to be ready for the next move in your career. And i think that that i think that worked really well on the timing and between what footlocker inca needed and probably what i personally needed for.

When i came across your personal story and your father story specifically I was quite alarmed. The fact that this was like going back a few years. But i was alarmed at the fact that i hadn't come across it sooner. It wasn't more prominent in the kind of mainstream And there wasn't talk of this reference of this as a particular case of anti muslim terrorism that had taken place on uk soil. And i think what's again quite alarming is that i only stumbled across it because i was kind of researching and i was trying to prove a point in an article or something that was putting together and i saw this and then i kind of went down the rabbit hole of finding out more and it was just astonishing that i there was no prominence to this so i guess i assumed that a lot of people. Listen this may not have come across yourself or your father story. So would you be able to very briefly. Kind of recap what happened. And how your family's life change in two thousand and thirteen yes of course On the twenty. Nine april twenty thirteen. That's is going to a eight years This year My father mohammed. Salim was eighty two years old at the time and he praised at the local moisture which is green mustard which is at the end of our street.

And then he crosses over the road to the school gate and he was basically funded home By a neo. Nazi called pablo up shane. Who'd only been in the country for five days and who got british sponsorship. He shook behind. Firstly of the british ambassador. In ukraine then go sponsorships small eve the predominantly muslim area and lived on the premises of dell com-. He followed my father home and this nine stabbed him to death from behind And then he went on a three month bombing campaign air and bombs side now bombed that saw three mosques in also over rampton tipton. This was one of the biggest oxyde terrorism on uk. So yet today your board explained now. Many people have heard the media have played down you know. At the time you know a doug's stanford they.

When this particular circumstances they weren't and we made that playoffs and Yeah we had a very challenging time with west midlands police and yeah. We went back to taking complaints seriously. And prior to this six months earlier die My brothers jim who's got jim. Montcalm derided was receiving frightening letters from the house. If you don't close your terrorist jim. Because predominant muslims go there You just wait. What would happen and a lot of these letters. Were going out in the area. We showed those to the place. Could it be linked.

You're majored in neuroscience. Yeah yeah that's yeah. I i did like doing the research and but i found research to be really slow ultimately in a lab. And you're like asking one very very specific question that take several years to get a possible. Answer yeah in addition to having a background in science you also act. Including what am i ve favorite films because i found it. So chilling joker. Yeah favorite experience. Why was it your favorite. I felt like working on that. I was just learning a lot very very quickly. Like for instance. I wasn't supposed to be doing the stunt where i got killed spoiler alert. There was supposed to be a stunt double who got shot and falls and like it is falling on the concrete and crawling and blah. 'cause that's technically stunt. The stunt double shows up to set and he's wearing a different suit than i am and i think technically like you know they didn't know how they would. Maybe they would have to delay day or something like that That's huge amounts of money and inconvenience like you ruin the suits work. There was like a custom sued so it wasn't like they could just like men's warehouse. I was like i can do. This can fall and you know. Do the stunt. I was a child gymnast.

And i'm like they decided on the day of the like maybe you've already been shot in the like but once and what does that look like. I haven't liked prepped. Running with a bullet in my. But let's try try it and then after after walking comes in like empties the gun into the back of me and runs up the stairs and jed quiet. They'll be they'd yell cut. And then i'd get up and then me and todd and joaquin would go watch playback and be like we'll how did that look that look right. I don't think that's how you'd run if you had a bullet and you're like no i do. That's exactly how it is. And i and i was just felt like i was learning so lightning vast ultimately at the end of it. I felt like it really paid off. And like after i wrapped walking pulled me aside and said some really nice things to me. That was very encouraging awesome. He said hey man. I like the way you like it. I would like to offer you ten thousand dollars to shoot you for real sometime. All right we have a couple of great games for you. Are you ready.

Maybe i think in hallmark movies. They're not gonna take time to
Cubs Weekly Podcast
The Cubs Are Sitting Pretty in the NLC
"They can look at the division. Tony you look at all the teams that the cubs have to but up against dan. We haven't seen a whole bunch of the squads in the central be. You know they haven't made a whole bunch of moves during this off season and in the cubs they're in that basket as well so when it comes to being competitive in the division right now. I think jed hoyer and david rawson as well as myself. I think everyone is of the mindset that this cubs team they can go out there and twenty twenty one and compete no matter what a yeah i think so for sure i mean you look at this division in every single team. All five of them has gotten significantly worse on paper going into twenty twenty one compared to twenty twenty you know the the reds are losing. Trevor bauer who. We talked about earlier in the podcast. I think you traded rozelle glossiest the angels. The potential transcending gray like who knows. We'll see some of that archie. Bradley was it was another pitcher. They acquired at the trade deadline atop reliever for them. He's gone cardinals. Have lost a lot of veteran guys as well. The pirates are trading away. Anybody of value right now in the brewers have you know declined to options are not options for guys like ryan braun and and so on so yeah off five teams really right now. Don't look better on paper than they did last year. But that doesn't mean that there's a wide open division for the cubs to go claiming i think right now the cubs have one of the best teams on paper. They have a manager. Year finalist david. Ross they have all those poor guys in the mvp candidates that we talked about before that if there are bounceback season from a couple of all of those guys than this offense is in much better shape than it was last year. So i think the real big question is just pitching for them you know. Where does the pitching come from from the cubs but yeah i think right now they can compete certainly with any team in the division

"jed" Discussed on Best Comics Ever
"I'm excited to be joined by. Jed mackay writer of various marvel comics including the ongoing black cat which was relaunched. Recently as part of the king in black event as well as a taskmaster miniseries and some other cool marvel works coming out right now jed. Thanks so much for joining. I appreciate having you on. How are you doing today. I'm very well. Thank you and thanks for having me on what was to talk comic books. Cool perfect that's exactly what this is. We'll try to dig in to the work and just talk about Some of what you've been doing. Because i definitely have been very impressed by especially black cat of late. I feel like i almost owe you an apology. Rereading it simply by virtue of not giving this book early attention on like marvel best ovallis in two thousand nineteen twenty twenty I think ahead an as an honorable mention in two thousand twenty and it. It totally deserves a spot on on the list when i make my updates That will one hundred percent. Black hat is really really excellent. is a great books. I wanted to say that up front because it's it's so good. How did you. Yeah when you're when you're looking at academy writing a black cap book winded it. I sort of occurred to you to for this premise of a very high s- focused book throughout like kinda the entirety of the moral universe. Kind of it from the get-go. When when i got the call say hey you wanna write a black cap up until of course hadn't really. I didn't really know where she was at at that point in time i wasn't really following his character but doug in in sort of aw kind of sumptuous up to yoshida's been a thief vigilante issues of private detective for a while i think but i think the the thing is what people keep coming back to. I think that's the most interesting way to do it. welcome we'll do some stories but generally if i'm trying to write a comic book story i don't find doing the whole cap burglar as interesting as Kind of explosive colorful loud heist with a lot of moving parts of neo people working behind the scenes the twist reveals getting right up in people's faces so because that's what i find the most kind of interesting and exciting charismatic. Take on you know the angle known. It totally works. i think in some. It's almost surprising in a because as a longtime spiderman fan and certainly a fan of the character of the black cat. She's so tied to that character and to the cap burglar angle. You know i think. A lot of times Reader perceptions can kind of just be like. Oh she's marvel's cap woman right and it's kind of this..

Bitcoin Radio
Roger Ver of Bitcoin.com: True Economic Freedom
"For those who are viewers. Who for some reason. Don't know who you are. You wanna give a quick background kind of who you are and how you got into blood. Sure i was much younger. when i got into blockchain. it's been ten years now. But basically i was the first person that had any sort of capital to get excited about this base. I had my own business in silicon valley heard about. Bitcoin dropped everything to start focusing on that. And so i basically funded the entire first generation of bitcoin businesses and back and it was only bitcoin crypto currency was just bitcoin and bitcoin wallet some bitcoin exchanges and so these are companies. That people would have heard of today like a bit pay and cracking in blockchain dot com personnel. Of course then. A lot of people don't know it. I was actually a second person ever involved in in ripple as well so jed michaela came up with the idea and then approached me said he said he said. I think bitcoin mining waste what we can make. It does require mining. Are you willing to fund to make that happen. So i said sure. Let's give that a try. So actually i helped start ripple as well and then a number of other crypto currencies out there and i've been involved in the space a fulltime for almost exactly a decade. Now well. I mean those. That is a great groundfloor. The list of groundfloor is to get in on. I mean people. Talk about warren buffett. I think you might be warren buffett two point in terms of you just get getting great investment. So kudos to you. But if if we're gonna be talking you know right now we got to mention you know you've always been a strong proponent of bitcoin cash andy idea of bitcoin being electronic peer to peer network or peer to peer cash network but the network recently underwent a hard fork was over a mining tax of eight percent essentially a bitcoin. Abc wanted to tax the miners eight percent and and put it into a development fund You were against that and you're actually won by quite a large margin. Talk us through a little bit. Why you're against de-mining tax and kind of get much pushback. I mean it seems like it was overwhelmingly the bitcoin cash amini sided with you in this matter. Yea i initially had a pretty open mind about it. And then i don't think so much. The problem with diverting and there certainly was a problem with it but the minor the only a small part of the problem was diverting part of the block reward to pay for development within the ecosystem. The big part of the problem is who decides. And how did the town. And there wasn't any sort of way to figure that out and that was a real big problem. I think and it just was going to lead to a never ending amount of infighting and the money was gonna wind up going to those the most effective at political lobbying rather than those that we're building the most effective platforms to bring more economic freedom and to the world and more peer to peer trash useful things to the world and i think an example of that is bitcoin dot com and arguably has done a huge amount to bring more people to to crypto currency and bitcoin cash specifically than just about any other website yet. These developers are saying about dot com. Shouldn't get any money. They have the most money already. They don't need it. Well the fact that we already have a bunch of money shows that we've been effective with the resources that we've had available and so that's the problem with with government entities if the government entity does a bad job. They get more money. If a private business does a bad job they get less money and they go out of business. Those resources wind up being allocated people that use it more effectively and was basically bringing central planning in socialism to bitcoin. Cash in the entire point of cryptocurrencies. Let people opt out of those cyncially command in control. The economic systems allow people to be able to do whatever they want with their own money. And so i think it was a really bad idea and it was sad that caused infighting within the cryptocurrency community and the really shocking part. Is that the people that were in favor of this central planning in central diversion of part of the block reward within trying to call the people that were opposed to it. The you know the central planners bitch was the name that they came up with which was a play on bitcoin in bolsheviks i guess but it just seems really strange that People think that that's a good thing but at the end of the day. And i've been saying this since two thousand eleven if something better than bitcoin comes along great if something better than bitcoin cash comes. I'm to promote whatever option. I think has the best chance of bring more economic freedom to the entire world. And that's why i'm so bullish about bitcoin cash as it works for super fast super cheap super liable payments for every single person on the planet. Whether you're young or old rich or poor black or white. It works for everybody right now today. You don't have to wait for some other future. Technology come into existence. Bitcoin cash works today. And that's what has me so excited about it.
