I've chosen our episode from November of 2019 on cockney rhyming slang. This is one of those silly episodes That's also packed with a lot of interesting information and I remember Chuck and I having fun making it So I hope you'll enjoy listening to it, too enjoy Welcome to stuff you should know production of I heart radio And welcome to the podcast I'm Josh Clark and there's Charles W. Chuck Bryant right there. There's Jerry Roland right there So that makes this stuff. You should know right Can't top that I was trying to think a way to say welcome to the podcast in cockney rhyming slang Can you make an attempt my I'm my brain is so broken right now. I can't even try. Okay, good good Well, welcome. It's a good good time to record a show You're gonna do some cockney in here, right? We want to offend as many Londoners as we can I don't know just just channel a little Dick Van Dyke. Oh You know Yeah, the American Doing a bad cockney accent. Well, I did recently rewatch the limey Yes Casey's for benefit. Yeah, the great great movie from Steven Soderbergh. Never seen it. It's awesome. Is it really? Yeah, I mean, I know it's like a classic and everybody loves it. But I mean, it's really that good Yeah, because a lot of people liked I don't know the hangover. I Like the hangover. Well, how would you how would you like the limey and the hangover same level? Yeah, they're the same movie almost. All right, it's weird. Well, then I've seen the hangover so I don't need to see the limey Lemmy's great and Terence stamp is Awesome, and it then uses some cockney rhyming slang and one great scene My big exposure to cockney rhyming slang is lock stock in two smoking barrels Snatch. Yeah, which I think are both directed by Guy Ritchie, right? Wasn't lock stock like his first attempt and snatch was the one that like Got him married to Madonna you a fan of his yeah, I mean as much as I Like his movies, I don't like him personally necessarily cuz he like hunts bore like a jackass does it like yeah No drunk with his friends in the most like disrespectful way of murdering a pig. I admit his movies But yeah, I do like his movie sounds like he's a creep, too I'm not gonna go on record saying that but Yeah, those movies are okay and then I guess what's his name Don Cheadle a little bit in Oceans 11 sure he did a little bit of that right and I mean like It's code to Americans. It's oh, there's like a criminal a British criminal, right? That's all that means these days Yeah, I think so in movies. It's definitely Like all of those are criminal right criminal people in the movies They're like, you know kind of slick cool criminals that wear leather coats and stuff like that Not dumb criminals that wear like football jerseys or anything like that. They're like, you know smooth criminals That's I think what I was looking for. Yeah, but This this idea of associating it with cockney is not necessarily associating it with criminals. It's more associated with like Lower class working class less educated definitely not the aristocracy over in Britain yeah, or the upper class sure and that by by speaking with a cockney accent or More to the point using cockney rhyming slang you could really differentiate yourself To as a point of pride, right? Like you were speaking like your group your in -group which was at the time cockney, right? But the big surprise to all this is it's really possible and even probable that it wasn't the cockney that came up with this Rhyming slang that it was somebody else altogether. Maybe who knows should we say what it is? No Not for the rest of the podcast cockney rhyming slang Wasn't even Very clearly defined in this piece. Okay, did you think it was? It's in there. Okay, you got to just kind of separate the wheat from the chaff So it is a two -word phrase and is a slang phrase Consisting of two words so far so good where the last word of that phrase rhymes with the original word and It can be and I think the best way to do this is just to throw out a few no. No keep describing Well, the two -word phrase it can be it can be a lot of things it can be a person's name It can be just something random can be a place could be a place. It could be a lot of things it can be anything Yeah, sure. I guess it can be But shall we illustrate it through? Well, there's a second part to it. Okay, the second part and this is very important the Two -word phrase that you're using to that where the second one rhymes with the word you're actually saying Yeah, the original word the original word. Thank you Usually has nothing to do with it. There's no metaphor. There's no connection. There's no Nothing, there's no there's no context to it It's supposed to just be random or in most cases. It is just random words right one of which rhymes with the word you're replacing and To further complicate things sure In a lot of cases and no one knows why sometimes this happens and sometimes it doesn't a lot of times that one of the words Of the two -word phrase is dropped. Yeah, and then you're just left with the one word Which doesn't even rhyme with the original word anymore, right? That's I mean, that's probably the best description of cockney rhyming slang anyone's ever given So I think we should illustrate it with a couple of examples. I pulled some from From something called the internet Here here's one the the tip and tete That's how long it took me to come up with that Tip and tete for internet, but in ten years, it'll just be called the tip I'm gonna log on to the tip governor So let's say your word was and this was in oceans 11 specifically trouble is the word that you're trying to say Cockney rhyming slang for trouble is Barney rubble awesome And so you would say you're making a bit of the bonnie rubble again, right when somebody that was kind of Who was that? Making a bit of bonnie rubble not the see I already did it wrong No, but I think you that's not like a real person to an American for sure. Oh, yeah Um, I can't I can't I'll shout it out. Later. Oh, man. I finally did a good one No, but it wasn't a cockney person, okay for Another example Queen They would use the term baked bean Look who's on TV. It's the baked bean And that's the Queen. I like that one or in the case of one that's been dropped What is Ed use here bees and honey? That one is not dropped for money. Okay, but which one was apples and pears right? Right, so you would say I'm gonna go up the apple and stairs Apples and pears. Oh, man Let me retake this everybody You would say I'm going to go up the apples and pears to go get my wallet to pay for this pizza Or something to that effect. Okay, but then over time people drop the pears And so now the word for stairs in cockney rhyming slang is just apples Which if you're just standing there on the outside like a normal American bloke sure, which by the way means person You have no idea why this person just called stairs apples You got what they were saying because the context is there you're going up the apples to get your wallet to pay for the pizza But why would you just say that did you did you hit your head? Is there something wrong with you? What's the problem? Why would you just call that apples? Yeah, that's why it's so confounding But the great thing about cockney rhyming slang and in particular the great thing about researching cockney rhyming slang is you learn How you get from apples to stairs and then it makes sense sometimes Yeah, that's true. It's not always. Yeah, sometimes there's It's not documented which ed points out is one of the problems sometimes you can draw the line the through line But because it's not documented and sometimes these things take years and years to morph into its final version right unless you unless you're you know on the What would you call street on the dole? No on the streets, then I wouldn't know but I don't know what streets is you can't just make stuff up like there's real words I'm the drums and beats So you're on the drums right, but they probably have a word for streets like that's the whole point You can't just make anything up, but the you could if it hasn't been taken yet sure Also, that's the other thing about cockney rhyming slang is it evolves right so old celebrities that that no one even knows about anymore Fall away to new celebrities whose name also rhyme with you know whatever word you're saying right? I thought you meant old celebrities who maybe used to talk this way like Michael Caine no He's never said any rhyming slang in his life. No of course you got to see the movie Alfie Maybe that's who it was it might have been Michael Caine. I'll take that Michael Caine. I think it was as a matter of fact Thank you, I'm glad you did it. Noel always says a good joke is to say Michael Caine in the correct accent say the words my cocaine And it sounds like Michael Caine saying it then it sounds like that the correct accent for Michael Caine all right say it my cocaine Well you just blew that one out of the water You Gotta set me up in the future Okay, well there's I've got it two ways now, man, okay, here's the thing my cocaine That's my cocaine That's pretty good Michael Caine. It is good. You're right. No. You just got to say it the right way and not like a robot Josh So here's that one of the things is sort of confounding if you want to look up a like a glossary and Say well, here's what I'm gonna. Do I'm gonna learn cockney rhyming slang so for my trip to England I'm really you know. I'm really in with everybody First of all bad idea yeah second of all it's it can be very localized Mm -hmm and the accents are all different Yeah, so even people in London sure who both who all use well people in London Do but the people who use cockney rhyming slang in London yeah might not even agree on what word is means What I'm just picturing all the people walking around England laughing their arses off. I can't wait to get to that one As we stumble through this um yeah, it had a really good Example of why there's no codification of the cockney rhyming slang He said that when people are creating a language especially informal ones like slang They don't write it all down quote dear diary referred to my house as a cat and mouse today because it rhymed We all had a good laugh might try. Just calling it cat tomorrow and see how it goes It is it sounds funny, but that's that's how it works stumbling across the diaries And here's the other thing too is there are cases where there is a little bit of a reflection of the original word and the example that it gives here is twist Yeah, like to call a woman a twist mm -hmm Which I don't know if that's derogatory or not or just some weird slang that no one uses anymore I don't think so although I don't know so yeah these are also the people who use the C word like it's nothing Man I can't wait to go back there Which we're gonna do soonish right? I'd love to do in 2020. Maybe yeah, all right So twist came from twist and twirl which meant girl which is They were talking about like dancing with a girl twisting and twirling in a nightclub Let's say so there is some connection in that one. Yeah, so girl and ended up becoming twist So that sort of makes sense there's another one called on your Todd After a guy named Todd Sloan and it means on your own Right and the thing is is like on your Todd it makes sense Sloan rhymes with own It doesn't have to have any connection, but that one actually does yeah Cuz Todd Sloan was a famous jockey in the 19th century like horse jockey. Yes, okay? What other kind is there disc jockeys? Oh, yeah, sure So his book his memoir was called Todd Sloan by himself Which is weird to refer to yourself in third person for your memoir Hmm, but there was a line in it that apparently East End East Enders in London like really picked up I was left alone by those. I never ceased to grieve for It's still like the idea of being alone or on your own Became synonymous with Todd Sloan his name just happened to rhyme with that So it's one of those rare ones where there is a connection to it and also rare Chuck in that This is a 19th century horse jockey and still today on your Todd is recognized as on your own Whereas a lot of people probably have no idea exactly who he is and when that happens That frequently that person gets moved out for potentially another celebrity or another word That's a little more understandable or recognized another new jockey two people today, right? Yeah exactly which can you name one? Nope? Nope Alright, maybe we should take a break and we'll talk about some of the other some other examples after this message In a world where modern technology is rapidly reshaping our day -to -day lives the new podcast Technically speaking an Intel podcast uncovers the remarkable ways tech is improving our livelihood across the globe brought to you by Ruby Studios from I heart media in partnership with Intel technically speaking is your passport to the forefront of AI's marvels in modern technology each episode will Take you on a riveting journey as you discover the awe -inspiring innovations of our modern world from game -changing innovations Revolutionizing early cancer detection to AI software that detects pests on crops that can be detrimental to seasonal yields tune in for Conversations that are shaping tomorrow today.

The Podcast On Podcasting
A highlight from Ep379: The 5 Fs Podcasters Shouldn't Neglect - Jerry Dugan
"Be consistent with who you're speaking to, what you're posting off. Still show yourself and be a guest on other shows, especially if the show is like yours, because those listeners will also want more and more variety and they'll come to you for that. Most hosts never achieved the results they hoped for. They're falling short on listenership and monetization, meaning their message isn't being heard and their show ends up costing them money. This podcast was created to help you grow your listenership and make money while you're at it. Get ready to take notes. Here's your host, Adam Adams. What's up, podcaster. It's your host, Adam Adams. And today I'm joined with Jerry Dugan from Beyond the Rut. And Jerry's passionate about supporting business leaders, helping them with different things like work -life balance. So one of the questions that I'm going to ask, does work -life balance even exist? Because I'll tell you it's very polarized. On one end, everybody's like, you have to balance, you have to balance. And then I read this other book that said, no, it's not balanced. It's switch tasking. You go here all the way, then you go here all the way. And then there's other people that say you have to be out of balance for a certain amount of time. So I'm really curious just to start there. Jerry Beyond the Rut supports people with a life worth living in faith, family, and career. So a lot of the listeners that you have are probably around my age and your age that are probably struggling with the work -life balance and making sure that they are putting enough to their faith and their family and their career. And I love that. I want to ask, why do you think work -life balance is real? And what have the other people said? Yes, ultimately, I think they're all saying the same thing. Like if you really break down to what, like, even the folks that say there's no such thing as work -life balance, what they're ultimately saying is like, we make life choices based on our priorities. And when I talk about work -life balance, I'm saying the same thing. One of my hope is that when you're on your deathbed, I already know you're not going to say, man, I wish I did one more launch of my program or man, I wish I was at inbox zero more days in my life. You're going to say things more like, I wish I had one more day to spend with my grandkids and my great grandchildren. I would have loved to have been there for my daughter's wedding or for my son's wedding, whatever it is. And in serving in combat and knowing some folks who worked in hospice care, that is the thing that they hear over and over again, that people wish they had more time to be with the people they love and on the flip side, when they have the people they love, they wish they succeeded more in their career. And so it's like, what if you could win in all of that? What if you could take your career as far as you can and not sacrifice your family at the same time? And so you look at what's important to you and how are your current activities impacting those areas of your life? How are you doing with your family life? You know, okay, work's taking a lot out of me. Okay. Is that a permanent thing or is this a temporary thing? If it's temporary, then you talk it over with your partner and you decide from there, like, okay, yeah, this is temporary. What's the deadline? What does success look like? And what's the bailout trigger that says, all right, we're not hitting these measures doesn't look like we will let's scrap that and go another direction. So that to me, that is why I'm a big fan of work -life balance. It's not just strictly. I spend so many hours at work, so many hours at home. It really is. How is getting out early impacting all the things? Am I going to miss my children's big school events? What's that impact if I do? And what's the message I send? Because I'll tell you from personal experience, I was a lot of kids, superheroes, because I would volunteer my kids' school for a day and their dad had to go to work and it's not the same thing against their dad, because why did the dad go to work? Because he wanted to provide for his family. And so the motivation for a good thing for the family was there, but there wasn't that balance to, I also want to communicate to my child that my child is important. I want to communicate to my partner that she's important. And so it's, how do you win at all those things? And how do you find the right company that will support you as a person while also supporting you and your career growth and getting you to perform well to help the company also succeed? It's like, there's a way to find all that. I want to hear a tip or two. And I'm thinking you and I talked a little bit about this before we first press record. You were talking about the checkbox and a lot of us, we got a checklist and we're checking off all the boxes and it's seems like we're checking off all the boxes. It feels like when we look at the checklist, it's pretty much full, but we might not feel fulfilled even at the expense of checking off lots of boxes. So if that's us, we're listening and we're trying to think of what is it that we think we've had success on paper, but we don't really feel it. We don't really feel like we're everywhere we need to do. What's one or two tips for the listener to be able to feel like they're doing the right thing right now? I think the first thing is you got to know who you are and that's the big broad umbrella piece of advice. Know who you are, what is valuable to you? Like, what do you believe in? What do you not believe in? It's if you believe in respecting the dignity of every person, then that is key. If you value time with family, then your calendar should reflect that. If you value being a supportive person for your family, does that go beyond just monetary support? And so knowing your values, I think is very huge. What is your vision, your purpose in life? I have a couple of mottos I live by. One is the Dugan crest motto. So somebody around the 1500s and it's a miracle that the Dugans are still around because apparently these guys called the Saxons came into like Ireland and almost wiped us all out, but like good Irish people, we stuck around. And so that's not important. The important thing is somebody added to the family crest. Oh man, it's by virtue and valor. So for Tute et valore, and it sounds cooler when it's Latin. I hope I said it right. So that's one thing I live by is am I living my life according to my family's crest motto, am I living by virtue? Am I living by valor being courageous to do what's right when even nobody's looking. But then from there, I had a vision that I wanted my children to live a life that was better than mine, but also be set up to be better adults than I was to have better successes than I did to know who they are and to feel comfortable pursuing their own dreams. Like that's in a written vision that I have tucked away on Evernote somewhere. So you got to have something like that. Like, what do you stand for? What is life like for you when you die? And I love talking about these things called the five Fs, your faith, your family, your fitness, your finances, and your own future growth or possibilities. Like looking at your life through those lenses, what does success look like for you? So I guess that's the second one is defining a second, Jerry. I missed an F F that I got faith. I got family. I got finances. I got fitness. And what did I miss? Emily, faith, finances, and fitness, future possibilities, future possibilities, always growing to be better today than you were yesterday. And then what's that future state of yourself you'd like to become. And so being a constant learner is that future possibilities. One reading books that are outside your usual norm, listening to podcasts that are outside your norm, being open to ideas that are not typically in your bucket or wheelhouse either a, to see how your own ideas and beliefs stack up, because sometimes like I myself had gone through life and realized, oh wow, I held onto this belief and I met three people who completely challenged that is my belief wrong or is it just not as strong as I thought it was, is there more context? I needed to add. And, and so sometimes I realized I was completely wrong about something. And other times I realized, oh, I was missing a lot of context here. I believe this, but only in this context, because I also believe this and my belief should not undermine somebody else's right to be who they are. And so it's like, oh yeah, okay. I can wrap my head around that. And I can be a decent person in my community that way. And so that, yeah, the future possibility is that a bit more unpacked, I should have put that in. Have you ever heard of, I think it's Gino Wickman and I hope I'm not wrong. And he wrote like three books. One was like, I'm going to just type in Gino Wickman. This is going to be the easy way. Then I'll sound so smart instead of dumb Gino Wick man. All right. So he wrote three books. Yes. Yes. What the heck is E O S he wrote traction and he wrote what it's not showing me the last one traction, what the heck is EOS and there's another one called rocket fuel. Okay. So these three books are interesting and it kind of is what you're talking about, but in more of a business category. And so I think this is really great to extract it and bring us to the listener in rocket fuel, what the heck is EOS and traction, ultimately what Gino Wickman talks about is your business should have a culture or have values that you all live by. And so it's interesting because when we look at all of the things that we can value, let's just pretend that I don't know the number. I'm just going to say that it's 20 values. There's 20 things that are good. And most people would agree with 18 or 19 of them. So one would be honesty, but at what expense are we going to be rude and honest? Another one might be politeness. Another one might be doing the right thing. Even when it hurts, you kind of mentioned your integrity. Even when people are not looking, am I going to be doing this with my family crest and everything? So the Gino Wickman also talks about like all of these things that we can value. And most of them are important to everyone. Honesty, of course, that sounds right, but not everybody puts that at the top of their value. Maybe they put discretion, maybe they put kindness above it, or maybe they put honesty above kindness and et cetera, et cetera, they might put doing the right thing, even when it hurts as one of the top values. And so in RocketFuel and EOS and Traction, Gino talks about how we need to build our team, our company culture around where all of us agree on these main values. Like we value making money, we value serving the client, we value X, Y, or Z. All of them are good, but which one is in the hierarchy? And so when I'm hearing you, you basically gave me two things. The first one is you got to know who you are. You got to know your culture. You got to know your values. What do you believe in? And you talked about by virtue and valor. What do you believe in? What matters to you? And then you focus on it and you bring people along. And the second one is a written vision. Like you actually write down the vision where you put in faith, family, finances, fitness, and future possibilities, and you figure out how are you doing these? How does this work for you? And you write it down because everybody's vision, like a fingerprint has to be different. Everybody's culture or their values have to be a little bit different, how they put them. And for you, you're saying a way that you can check off the boxes is to just know exactly what the heck the boxes are in the first place. Know which things matter to you and get rid of the rest. So you can really focus on those. And I thought that was really interesting because not only can we do it in our business, we can do it on our podcast. And as you've illustrated, we can do it with our family, with our own lives, our personal lives. So I thought that was really, really beautiful. I appreciate you going into that before we move on to anything, something that I missed or something else you want to share about being able to check off those boxes and feel really good about it, even that person who might be listening might feel like it looks like they're checked off, but they don't feel completely fulfilled. Yeah. Similarly to how business, they have their strategic plan that pushes them and they make big decisions off of that. Does this activity support the strategic initiative of this organization? And the answer is yes, they keep pushing forward with some adjustments. If it doesn't, they're like, well, then why are we doing that? Let's cut that out and let's restructure and reorganize. And it's cool to see that there are these business and even podcasting principles and practices that help us create a better podcast, create a better business, and we don't realize how easily we can just transfer those same skill sets into our very lives. And so it's the same thing. You know, how many people do we know who are physicians who hate being a physician? I can think of two or three or somebody who became a lawyer because the money was good and they quit being a lawyer because they realized that wasn't fulfilling for them or me, I left my corporate job because I realized I didn't want to start all over again and build something that belonged to somebody else and it was time to go after my dreams. So even my mom like kept encouraging me to become a doctor. I was a pre -med student. I'm not a doctor now because I did not do well as a pre -med student, but I realized later on it's because that was never my dream. That was my mom's dream. She wanted me to be a doctor. She wanted to be able to live vicariously through me and what she wanted success to be, and once I realized, Oh gosh, I don't want to be a doctor. What do I want to be? Of course, now it took a 10 year journey for me to realize what I did want to be, but I got there, man. That's that's important. So anyway, that was it. Yeah. You're willing to walk away from something really good stuff. I want to move into just your podcast journey now for the listener. I'll point out a couple of things that I'm seeing with your podcast. Hey, I think it, haven't you been doing it for like eight years? Yeah, this particular year, eight years. Yeah. Amazing. So with eight years, over 400 episodes and a lot of traction, not going back to Gina Wickman, a lot of traction on your podcast success, I think that we've got a couple of listeners that haven't quite been doing it for eight years, they may have been doing it for a year or two, they're new. And they would like to have the type of success that you've got with your podcast. So I'm like to get a couple of takeaways, what you've done, what you've learned, what you would do differently. First, a quick word from our sponsor, but when we get back, I really want you to focus on what made your podcast successful so that the listeners podcasts can also be successful. We'll be right back. Hey, my friend, as you know, this episode is sponsored by my company, growyourshow .com. We want you to be able to have the best tools at your disposal without costing you a whole arm and a leg.

If it's on there, it's vetted and approved by yours truly. And if it's not on there, it's probably not worth the money. So go ahead and get yours at growyourshow .com forward slash PDF. Let's get back into the show. We're back with Jerry Dugan. And we've talked a little bit about work -life balance, helping leaders with work -life balance, making sure that you're checking all the boxes and feeling fulfilled and the five F's and his family crest, which I don't even remember what it said in Latin. I think it was Latin, but it really means by virtue and valor. And I wanted to talk about now, how is his podcast so fricking well known and he's doing a great job. He's getting a lot of success through the podcast. And hopefully you'll be able to take away a couple of things that can support you in a successful podcast as well. Jerry, what do you think made your podcast? Yeah, a lot of what I'm seeing really is in the last year, year and a half, really. So I jokingly tell folks, but I'm not joking that it seems like I did year one, seven times, and then finally I had year eight happen all at once. So it's no overnight success kind of thing. I think the first thing that really helped was when there was a team of three of us. So we started off with three of us. We all agreed on one thing other than the name of the show. And that was the avatar of the show. So we have an avatar that we named AJ. He's 35 years old, married to his college sweetheart. He has two kids that they both have together. One's in elementary school. One's in middle school. AJ has a mid -level leadership career going on with a corporation in a metro area. And got the car, got the house, got the six figure income, but feels stuck in life. And so from there, we start to unravel how AJ feels stuck. There's the commute to work. There's the no real future in the job he's in. Not really making any progress. Wants to be a good family man when he gets home, but he's just drained of energy. And this cycle is putting a strain on his marriage. The kids feel like he doesn't love him, which is so far from the truth. So how does AJ live the life that he really wanted to live in his faith, in his family, in his fitness, finances, and his future? And so that's what we did when we came together to start the show. Now where we had a lot of weak spots, and I feel we did the first seven years over and over again, was that when you listened to the early episodes, we were all over the place, we didn't really stick to that mantra. Like what does AJ really need? And I hate to say it, but it wasn't until like the other two guys quit from the show that I realized, Oh, we're so far from what we wanted to do, who we wanted to help. And so how do I get there? And so year six, really going into year seven was how do I niche this down? I worked with a couple of different groups that really helped me start to niche that down. Jerry, you're helping specifically this demographic. You're helping them specifically with things like work -life balance and really having a mapped out future or a vision for their future focus on that. Okay. What kind of guests should I have? And so this kind of leads into the second one, which was that pairing down that niching down. So the first one was having that vision of who I wanted to help. The second one was really paring down and niching down. How am I going to help AJ? And once I started to see that a bunch of doors opened up and the third thing was I needed to get the word out there. So the marketing piece, I threw stuff out there for the first seven years, but really it's in this last year that I've been more intentional about it. The posts that I put out there on social media are aimed at AJ. The shows I appear on are aimed at AJ and you know, as that guest appearance on other shows, I think so far in the last 10 months, I've been on almost 70 other podcasts and to the point where now I'm starting to feel like I'm in alternate realities down. Like, how do I know Adam Adams? Oh yeah, I was on his show. All right, there we go. We talked about this, this, and this, or how do I know, Deirdre? Oh yeah, I'm here, here and here. It's just all that starting to overlap. But anyway, those would be the big three is know who you're serving. The second thing is truly niche down. Even if you have a lot of passions, interests, try to stick to one thing and just kind of lit little dose of yourself, sprinkle into your episodes. That way people know what they're getting when they come to your show. And then the third thing, I know I just said it. Marketing.
Bloomberg Businessweek
Fresh update on "jerry" discussed on Bloomberg Businessweek
"You know, especially fascinated with with the Murdoch's given that they were partly the inspiration for the show, you know, the news yesterday. It's the end of an era for Rupert Murdoch. It's not terribly surprising. You know, the the question of who was going to succeed him was really answered a few years ago, where Lachlan was appointed as the CEO of Murdoch's. And that was when Rupert sold off most of his entertainment assets to Disney. So, you know, Lachlan is in charge of Fox. And that's a much smaller company that it used to be. There's also News Corp, the other wing of Rupert's empire that is, you know, consists of the Wall Street Journal, the New York Post, and several newspapers in the UK. And these are businesses that are challenges in the TV business. It's no secret that cord cutting is accelerating. Fox has really clung to the old cable TV business model, really more than any other media company. They haven't really gone too aggressively into streaming. And the newspaper business is facing serious challenges with the decline of print and digital advertising is really, for the most part, going to the big tech companies. So Lachlan really formalizes and solidifies his taking role over for his dad's empire. And he has some real challenges. Why I now wipe this moment for Rupert Murdoch. That's the question everyone's asking. I think everyone expected that this would happen. He's 92 years old. He's had some health issues. So I think eventually there was going to be a day where he was going to pass the torch. Why it's happening this week I think is what everyone's wondering. He's 92 years old. He put a letter out to employees and said, look, I'm stepping away away from my role, but I'm still going to be involved in the company. I'm still going to be showing up at the from offices. So in a way he's saying he's passing the torch, but he's really not going away at all. What kind of media mogul is Lachlan? Yeah, yeah, I mean, politically, he is very much sees the world the same way that dad his does. You know, he's complained about other media companies is not covering the legal challenges facing Hunter Biden. You know, Rupert's basically letter yesterday suggested that Lachlan sees the, you know, sees the world the way that does he and they're going to keep fighting the culture wars together. So he is very much sees things the way Rupert does, which is a contrast from James Lachlan's younger brother who has more liberal sensibilities and has, you know, expressed those concerns is about his father's empire and what it's done. Jerry, can I ask you one question? How's it doing? I mean, it's still chugging along. It just lost for Carlson, which was the biggest star. But it's, you know, we've seen a Fox lot of News stars from Glenn Beck to Megyn Kelly to Bill O 'Reilly to Tucker, who all have been pushed out. And Fox News is still the one of the most watched local channels, you know, ratings -wise. Makes a lot of money, I'm assuming? Yes, still generates a lot of profits for Fox. So, you know, despite the fact that they just paid this large settlements in the Dominion case and they're facing another lawsuit with Smartmatic, another voting machine maker. sticker, you know, Lachlan has defended Fox News, and it's hard to imagine that he's going to take Fox News in any different direction than his dad. You mentioned publishing earlier in newspapers. What about News Corp? That's right. I mean, News Corp, Fox and News Corp were separated. News Corp is the newspaper business. They also own book publisher HarperCollins. You know, it's a difficult business. Obviously, the decline of newspapers is a real challenge. The threat of AI is something that the CEO of News Corp, Robert Thompson, who was one of Rupert's closest confidants, and Team Bronze News News Corp, and they, you know, this is a publishing company that they've tried to put the Fox and News Corp back together about a year ago, and they abandoned that effort. In January year, of this investors had a lot of concerns. They felt like the two companies were really devaluing what those two companies could be on their own. So that was something that Rupert tried to do failed, flew and and investors were pushed back. It's hard to see exactly how that would make sense combining those two companies. Again, they're very different. But yeah, that's the other side of Rupert's business. He's always been a lover of print newspapers, but that's an industry that's really facing a lot of challenges as well. Hey, one thing I wonder, Jerry, too, is how much has Lachlan been been behind some of the recent decisions, big business decisions at the company, whether it is to buy and get out of a business? I think that Lachlan's would, and he often does point to Tubi as an example of how Fox is trying to think about the future. I mean, I mentioned how they've, you know, they're still very much focused on the cable TV business and they don't put a lot of their profile shows on streaming, unlike a lot of other media companies. But Tubi is an ad supported streaming service that Fox has acquired and the value has increased, the viewership has increased. So I think that's probably one of the biggest deals that, you know, the Murdoch's done have in recent years. So that's something that they like to point to. I do also wonder, and just got about a minute left here, Lachlan, you know, at some point, you know, kind of he's on zone, his but he's still got siblings. And we've seen the tensions among the family before. Again, and feels like succession, but it's real folks, the Murdoch family. Is it possible that there will be some challenges, especially when you think about, you know, how much of stock of the companies are held, you you know, by family members or by, you know, the family overall? Yeah, I think a lot of know, close Murdoch observers are saying that the news this week was not a huge change, but what where where things could really change is when Rupert eventually does pass away and the the voting chairs in a family trust would go to the and the siblings would have to decide the future of the company, whether Lachlan stays in his role, whether the Murdoch's even stay in the media industry. So that's going to be a moment that I think people think a lot could change. Yeah, and even with the changes, it's still a fascinating media empire to watch. No doubt about it. Bloomberg News media reporter Jerry Thank Smith. you. Have a great weekend on Zoom in New York City. Carol Master, Jess Matton, radio, Bloomberg Radio on and in your podcast on the latest sound on podcast. We'll talk with Arthur Wheaton, director of labor studies at Cornell University about the UAW's expanding auto strikes.

If you give us a concession here, we'll give you more work. Now, Sean Fain in the UAW is pitting one automaker

hour podcast some of us have to work tomorrow all right here we go let's jump right into 1967 musical events in 1967 and the year kicks off right away with a bomb a bomb on January 4th the doors release can arguably one of the greatest debut records ever arguably if you had a top 25 greatest debut that albums would have to be in the top 10 it would have to be yeah you know if you had a top 50 that would have to be in the top 10 right even if you don't like them you have to say that was so ahead of its time oh it's so different nothing out there was like the needle and all you hear it kicks I mean fucking what a way to start an album it's a heavy song it with a bossa nova beat yeah I mean that's pretty clever yeah 67 so you know bossa nova was pretty hip again John Densmore over underrated underrated underappreciated I think you are you are so correct you know never gets the the the consideration that I I don't know you can't put him in greatest of all time but could he be okay if there's a top there's a top 25 drummer top 25 drummers is he in it good question and in rock we'll just say in rock I think he could be I could see him making so I don't know if he's a universal pick but I could see him on some list I mean he's something you'd have to think about like you said like it doesn't get noticed so much you know yeah yeah or it I mean although his drumming wasn't shy I mean he's jazzy as hell I heard um writers on the storm yesterday and his adjustment playing is great in his adjustments during the shows just for that yeah yeah the unpredictability of you know how the how the song was gonna go right because they could rehearse it all they want once Morrison got into that zone well in the drama keeps the beat right yeah yeah the drummer has to stay up with that yeah and played to the clown so to speak right you know and my my problem is if some of the clowns don't have the beat you know at one point they've got to give in like I said Morrison or even Dylan they'll set the tone but they've got to be steady themselves you know it's yeah otherwise it's just erratic but you know yeah guy like Dan's more I mean I had skill I had a lot of a lot of technical ability right feel yes cool so obviously his drums always sounded good yeah on the earlier on the other records even you know three years worth of music whatever I guess I would be who produced some Jack Holtzman was the producer did a good job Jekyll or now wait so no what was it Paul Rothchild yes yes yes I'm sorry Holtzman was he on the record company yeah yeah was that it was that chrysalis or chrysalis I think or just like yes that's a lecture a lecture weren't they on chrysalis though also I thought they were yeah maybe maybe chrysalis was a subsidiary but uh yeah Jack Holtzman's son is Adam Holtzman he's a keyboardist right now he plays with here we go Stephen Wilson but he does a little blog on Facebook and he talks about growing up and he was like six years old and his father brought him to a club to see the tour Wow at six years old he just talks about like yeah it's a great little blog Wow all right and four days later on January 8th Elvis Presley turned 32 on January 14th the human be in right the human be e -i -n human being takes place in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park polo fields with spoken words from Timothy Leary Allen Ginsberg Gary Snyder in others live music was provided by Jefferson Airplane the Grateful Dead Big Brother in the holding company and Quicksilver Messenger Service speeches from Jerry Rubin and others were also given at the event although it's one band there I liked yeah Quicksilver Messenger Service who was it on January 15th 1967 who is your favorite poet of all them I know you're not asking me Arthur Rimbaud who influenced Jim Morrison good answer good answer way to bring that first opening segment rough full circle we're getting better Scott we're good now you guys get a lot of good trust me I'm getting a lot of good feedback so let's keep it at that I don't want you son ask for more money and on January 15th 1967 the Rolling Stones appear on the Ed Sullivan show at Ed Sullivan's request finish it he asked them to let's spend sing let's spend some time together is that the one there you go yeah and then he told him a really big shoe I hate to do this I mean I come back on penalty box I don't say just he beat my record okay look he just got on the show after late and these are either he's stuck he's frozen put the dog nose back on where'd it go are you throw it at the camera like your headphones on January 16th 1967 the monkeys begin work on headquarters the first album to give them complete artistic and technical control over their material and it was fucking horrible fucking horrible what were they thinking they know they were thinking the egos got too big they thought they were the music well the argument can be made that you know Mike Nesmith did write different drum yeah so he could write songs but I don't think he was a pop songwriter you know headquarters and they try to be all fucking like 60 ish and shit they weren't looking for pop were they they're trying to be like more psychedelic yeah I think so there were their channel on the Beatles with those quirky little yeah with anti -grizzelles on that I don't know some weird shit I'll tell you what though I don't care about it myself but it was surely a harpsichord on it because that's what all those records had they had to have a harpsichord and I have the book this the 100 best -selling records of the 60s the monkeys got a they've had quite a few albums on there oh they do yeah they were they were but I mean I thought it was just a condensed period of the show which it probably was but it's still I mean they've got I mean most of their albums sold really well yeah yeah ah you like the show what's it is like the show I did I still like it I still love it I love that that that's so that humor is great like dumbed down brilliantly done though humor yeah way was what they were supposed to act like that yeah you know what I mean there was no like these guys are bad actors they knew exactly how to do that they pulled it off great it was campy it was great for its time it's still great to watch now yeah I do think that banana splits were a better band yeah that's I'll give you the banana splits were a kick -ass band yeah yeah kick -ass man did you see the movie recently came out it's a horror movie with the banana splits the banana splits movie it's a horror movie yeah yeah it takes place in an amusement park and they're they're robotic and in Dyson and slicing baby Dyson and slicing I have to say oh man that's yeah okay yeah Dyson and slicing it's good it's kids again campy movie but I couldn't not watch it yeah I have to say I'm sure Fleagle is a total psychopath well I'm not gonna give you any and no no no spoilers here those was it just Dyson and slicing on January 17

Mike Gallagher Podcast
A highlight from The Left Is Removing Statues & Erasing Americas History
"It's a real blessing to be surrounded by good people, and there are people who have my back struggling a little bit today. Two dreaded words, dry socket. Anybody who's had a wisdom tooth extraction knows the perils of dry socket. Well, good old dummy me got it and not doing so hot. So we're going to bring in my pal Kevin McCulloch. Kevin and I got to visit on the big Salem, New York, cruise around the island of Manhattan a week or two ago. Kevin, of course, is an accomplished talk show host based in New York City. He's been heard for years on our Christian station and on the news talk station. This is a man of faith, a terrific guy. And Kevin, you're going to help back me up a little bit today. I might be handing off the baton right off the bat. Have you ever had wisdom tooth dry socket problems before? No, I haven't. And just the sound of the words dry socket strike fear into my deepest being. So I feel very badly for you, Mike, and we've got whatever you need from us today. We're here to help. It's every bit as bad as it sounds, and it's not a good thing. It's what you don't want after you have a... I knew it was going too easy. I had the wisdom tooth removed Friday afternoon after the show. Everything was going great. Saturday, I was feeling great, Sunday not so good. And so it happens sometimes. So it's good to have you here with us. And first of all, many, many thanks to the great job you always do when you fill in for us. Of course, I've been listening to you for years, and it must be a fun experience for you because you're sort of transitioning from your own audience and your base into sort of another platform with our show. And I know our listeners have welcomed you with open arms. Well, I have, and Mike, the Mike Gallagher audience continues to be, I think, not only the most informed because of your daily efforts, but they prove to be generous in all of the campaigns that you do. And as I said when I filled in for you the last time, because I work PM Drive, I'm a big Mike Gallagher listener. I listen and actually many times watch your show on the Salem News Channel. And it's just fun to hang out in your sandbox. So thank you for letting me do that. Thank you. And thank you to Jerry Crowley and everybody at Salem Media of New York that allows us to have all the connections to do. It takes a lot of technology to do what we're doing at this very moment, Mike. And if it weren't for them, we wouldn't be able to. You'd be in dry socket hell if we didn't have a better management team. And speaking of Salem News Channel, That Kevin Show has become a big hit on SNC. You're doing a great job with that. And I love the mix. And I was one of your first guests. I was really honored to be on your show. And you've got a great blend of politics and pop culture and lifestyle and all kinds of neat stuff. In fact, speaking of that, let's kick off with some breaking news. Donald Trump Jr.'s account on X, formerly Twitter, was apparently hacked earlier today. I don't know if you've heard this story. There were a series of – well, get this. There were a series of offensive tweets, including one that said, I'm sad to announce my father, Donald Trump, has passed away. I will be running for president in 2024. You know, Kevin, there's such evil out there and there is such sickness and mean -spiritedness and viciousness. And somehow this almost seems par for the course, doesn't it? Well, it's one of those things where if Donald Trump lives this rent -free in the left's heads, just imagine how effective he'll be if he's reelected. I mean, this is – you've got to remember, and I know that you do, Mike, but for people that are listening, particularly cynics, Donald Trump's one of the few presidents that campaigned on a slate of promises and then went and actually did what he promised. If he comes back, he's already making promises about what's going to happen. There's going to be cleaning of the House and the FBI and the DOJ. There's going to be getting rid of the deep state at the Pentagon and places where wokeness has overtaken actual common sense in terms of policy. So of course they're going to play dirty and of course they're going to try to do everything they can. And all I have to do to compare what they think about Donald Trump Jr. is just ask the question, Hunter Biden? Question mark? No kidding. No kidding. Is there any comparison between the two? And you know, speaking of Trump and his promises and his predictions, something has come to fruition in New York City, and you know the city as well as anybody. Now comes news that these goofballs in Manhattan are actually going to consider taking down statues or any commemoration of George Washington, of Christopher Columbus. And I want to go back to 2017. I want to play this for you, Kevin. Check out what Trump said, because when he said it at the time, they condemned him. Oh, how crazy is he? Check this out. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of to them a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name. George Washington was a slave owner. Was George Washington a slave owner? So will George Washington now lose his status? Are we going to take down excuse me, are we going to take down are we going to take down statues to George? How about Thomas Jefferson? What do you think of Thomas Jefferson? You like him? OK, good. Are we going to take down the statue? Because he was a major slave owner. Now we're going to take down his statue. So Kevin McCullough, do you remember the backlash? Do you remember the backlash he got when he said that and they mocked him and they said, what a lunatic. And he's a fear monger. And now just look at what's happening in New York City, what he predicted could be coming to fruition. Yeah. And you know, what's particularly sad about that, Mike, it's like if people have a different view of history, so be it. That doesn't mean, number one, that they should set policy for what everybody thinks about history. And certainly I would make an argument that history is made by flawed people. And it's really people that overcome the worst flaws of what they have that really do great things and that we should celebrate the great achievements, not expect every single human being to have been perfect. But beyond all of that, this city's in a mess. We have crime. We've got migrant overpopulation in ways and areas that we can't even begin to deal with. And this is what people want to focus on. I mean, and it is you're talking about a warped mix of priorities for sure. It's upside down. And it's absolutely happening as I mean, I've been following this and I'm in just absolute utter amazement, as you say, New York City dealing with crime, crippled under monumental budget cuts due to the illegal immigration issue that frankly the Democrats created. I mean, you want to be a sanctuary city, be a sanctuary city. And now the City Council's Cultural Affairs Committee is going to hold a public hearing on a measure to remove works of art on city property that depict a person who owned enslaved persons or directly benefited economically from slavery. Well, of course, George Washington's at the top of that list. So Trump was right. These nuts in New York and in other blue cities are going to try to remove the founding fathers from our consciousness because they own slaves. And it's exactly what Trump said back in 2017.

A highlight from Top 3 Quick Tips to Stop Sugar Cravings
"Are hidden toxins and stressors making you feel run down and tired, worried about oxidative stress from exposure to EMF, 5G, heavy metals, chemicals, processed foods, and the like? You see, in our modern world, toxic is the new normal. No matter how health -conscious you try to be, the truth is that every single day, you're being bombarded by harmful toxins and stressors. When left to roam free, these toxins take on the form of something called free radicals. Free radicals promote an unhealthy inflammatory response and contribute to oxidative damage on a site or level, basically like the rusting of metal or the browning of an apple that potentially leads to premature aging, a lower quality of life, and a range of health problems. However, there is good news. Antioxidants are crucial in combating free radicals and keeping you on track, and one of the most powerful antioxidants known to man is glutathione. Glutathione fights free radicals and molecules that cause cellular damage while repairing DNA and flushing out toxins. But here's the thing. Not all glutathione supplements are created equal. If you're taking glutathione in capsule or tablet form, you're missing out on key nutrients as they will simply pass through your body without being absorbed. You can thank your stomach acid for that. However, our friends over at Pureality Health have a patented formula that utilizes something called My Cell Liposomal Technology, which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream proven to be 800 percent more efficient.

If you're looking to come off of sugar, then these three key tips are going to be absolutely critical to get results in the end, the sugar cravings. And so the first big tip is just a mindset shift to where you're saying I am worth it for many individuals. And this may or may not resonate with you. That's OK. Many of us really we have these self sabotaging thoughts and behaviors and oftentimes we're tired and we get this idea, hey, it would feel really, really good right now to have this sugar, to have the ice cream, to have whatever it is that you're craving. And you've got to remind yourself, I am worth more than that, that I am worth getting results and I am worth ending these cravings and I will not be enslaved a to craving, a flesh desire in this case. And so, you know, it's great to be able to enjoy good food. And the cool thing is when you're following a low carb, high healthy fat diet, when you're following a healthy diet, there's many great foods and great flavors that you get a chance to enjoy. But you are worth so much more than falling victim and being enslaved to cravings for sugar, processed foods and junk. So you want to shift it. You want to say I am worth it. And you also want to link pain to those foods. Literally, like if you crave, I don't know, Ben and Jerry's ice cream or, you know, some sort of, you know, I don't necessarily want to want to say anything bad about their brand, but some sort of processed food. Just whenever you think of that food, link it to pain that you may experience in your body, whether it's, you know, a mental, emotional thing like a relational problem, like your anger, like your anxiety. It could be a pain in your knees or in your back, or it might be the rashes. We might be rashes that you have on your skin or digestive problems. Link it to that problem, experience and feel the pain of living in that problem and link it in your mind to that food. And then you'll feel, hey, you know what? I don't want to go down that that trail. I don't want to go down that track and you'll make better choices.

I feel a soberness tonight because we have a very interesting church. It's really, as some of you realize that have been around for a while, it's an interlocking chain -link fence of small churches, and there's grapevines, so a lot of you don't know Donna at all, or Jerry, but we prayed tonight because they were evening Redeemerites, if there is such a thing. Evening Redeemerites, and there was a lot of prayer for Donna, visited her in the hospital, and so it's a shock for a young and sweet spirit to pass on like that.

A highlight from Dissecting Djokovics Reign, Cocos Title & the 2023 US Open With Craig OShannessy
"Welcome to the official tennis .com podcast featuring professional coach and community leader Kamau Murray. Welcome to the tennis .com podcast. I am your host Kamau Murray and we are here with one of our usual suspects. We always have to do our Masters 1000 Grand Slam wrap up with Mr. Data, Mr. Analytics, Mr. Guy in the bunker with his pen and pad, Craig O 'Shaughnessy. Craig, welcome to the show. Pleasure to be here. Pleasure to be here. I just got back from the US Open. I was there for two weeks. It felt like eight. It's the most draining slam of all. It was a good tournament, some great matches. It's tough, I think way tougher to be there for the duration than any other tournament that there is. 100%. You survive. And the matches, the tournament goes so late and the process to get to and from the site makes it just a haul, right? And it makes the day just long. At an hour and a half to the front and the back of your day, in addition to sitting there watching matches and this thing. Before we get to Coco Sabalenka, because that'll take up the whole show, right? You and I normally, we dibble and dabble on the girls and then we dive into the men's. I want to do the reverse. I want to dibble and dabble in the men's because I don't think anyone's surprised about what happened because if we start talking about Coco and Sabalenka now, it'll just be the whole hour. So when you look at a whole two weeks, right, and I was there for the first part of it, seeing the energy, talking to the players, touching, feeling them, seeing how them and themselves A, were enjoying the atmosphere, sometimes a little too much, B, managing the atmosphere or C, trying to just control their bubble within the atmosphere. And I think that process probably, those three sort of situations probably cost Francis a further run, right, kind of getting caught in the matrix, right, absorbing a lot of atmosphere. And then Ben, with the experience of his family, his dad, controlling the atmosphere, probably had a lot to do with his long run. But I think the match that I think had the biggest impact on the tournament was definitely Novak versus Jerry. Did you see the match? What did you think when Novak left the court, down sucess to love, goes to the bathroom and looks himself in the mirror, what happened? Yeah, when he left the court, you know, it was, he's down two sets to love, Jerry's controlling the back of the court with his backhand, his backhand was the best shot on the court in the first two sets. But to be honest, even then Novak goes in, he's still the favorite, still the favorite down two sets to love. He's done it before, you know, it's one of those things where can your opponent play three blinding good sets out of five? Maybe not, probably not, when Novak goes in, you know, you just kind of reset, look in the mirror. He did exactly the same thing against Tsitsipas at Roland Garros, came out and just mowed over him in the last three sets, mowed over Jerry in the last three sets. It was a carbon copy, it's like Novak looks in the mirror and goes, okay, we've got that out of the way. Whether it's a combination of Novak being a little tight, playing, you know, a fellow countryman, it's a combination of early rounds being a bit tight. It's a combination of the opponent just playing spectacular tennis, but you can see right from the start of that match, Novak wasn't, his A game did not turn up right at the beginning. He was pushing, he was prodding, he was spinning, you know, just watching him play a thousand matches, you look at him and say, well, he's not there yet. And even after two sets, he's not there. But you know, sometimes for players, when you get down, it can relax you. It's like, well, I can't fall any further down this hall, I'm two sets to love down. May as well relax, may as well chill out, may as well believe in myself, may as well hit the ball, and Novak's the master of that. So I'm not so, I'm not surprised by the final result. And I think overall, it really helped Novak to play such a quality match and have to overcome some adversity early on. So I agree with you, very pivotal match for the men's draw. Well, let me ask you this, because from a coach's standpoint, when I see, when I see that type of performance, my mind goes to, it wasn't ready to play, right? When I look at like Francis and Ben Shelton, it looked like Francis wasn't ready to play. When I'm sitting in a coach's box and my player goes down 3 -0 or 4 -1, and they're like, deer in the headlines, don't know what to do, it was like, what was not clear prior to the match? You've spent a lot of time with Novak, Novak's got one of the best teams out there, he's the most methodical and committed to his regimen. How does something like that happen to a player who's number one, Jerry is Serbian, right? So you knew who you were playing, right? How did you come out not ready to play? I mean, is there a chance that at this big of an event, at this point in the event that he just wasn't ready or wasn't clear on what to do or from being close and inside, what do you think? Yeah, I think if you look back to Novak's seven matches, I think he will have a slightly different explanation for how he started in all sevens. You get all your ducks in a row, you watch the video, you talk to the team, you get the game plan, but at the start, it was like Novak, in that match, he may walk out there and sometimes he feels the energy of the crowd and it excites him. Sometimes you feel the energy of the crowd and you may go away a little bit and then come back. But I thought that he was attempting to work his way into this match, to start off even to let his resume do the talking early, let the other guy go away, let the other guy spray balls and it didn't happen. It just didn't happen. So all of a sudden, the opponent's not missing a thing, the opponent's playing at a much higher level than Novak was and you're just not ready for that. He's not ready for that. You're going to play a match like that. In the course of a season where these guys are playing about 80 matches, you're going to have these subtleties with how the opponent's playing, how you're playing, are you really ready, are you working yourself into the match, are you coming out guns blazing? And it was just a bad combination of layers for Novak where Jerry threw the first punches, Novak's tasting blood, and it took him a couple of sets to recover, but there was never any doubt in my mind that he would still win that match. And I think that's the oddest thing. I think the odds makers, after being two sets, Novak was still the favorite and I was like, wow. That's probably the first time that I've seen that, I'm not a better, but the odds makers were still favoring Novak. So let me ask you this. Another pivotal match in the tournament, I think, was TFO Ben Shelton. Yeah, I was at that match. I think we all knew Ben Shelton could play. I thought it was very impressive, him beating Tommy Paul, right? One of the things, and I don't know the reason for this, is when he beat Tommy Paul, the crowd, obviously they had to choose, both Americans, Ben and Tommy, but when Ben beat Tommy, I was a little disappointed that the crowd was kind of quiet, right? But we don't have to hop on that, but I do want to point it out that the crowd was eerily quiet after the win of that. But with him and Francis, one of the things that concerned me about Francis was in that New York environment, with all the celebrities, with all the kind of like, and I mean, first of all, we got to keep it going. More non -tennis people, more non -tennis athletes, musicians, entertainers, artists showed up to the US Open this year than I can ever remember. And we need to do that for the sport to grow. But you still got a tournament to play, right? And this generation who loves that, loves the attention, will have to learn to balance how much is too much, how much gets me off kilter, and how much gets me off track. And I thought that the day before the Ben match, you saw Francis with Bieber. I thought that that was a little too much and perhaps maybe took for granted that Ben would shit his pants, and he didn't, right? You know what I mean? Because when you get to that point in the tournament, when you are the veteran, you kind of expect the young guy to give you a couple, like, ah, if I just play solid, he'll know who he is, and the shock factor will cause him to make a few unforced errors or some bad decisions, and it didn't happen. And to me, that goes in the book of, Francis didn't look ready to play, and I think he'll learn from this experience on managing the energy, managing his energy, for that late in the tournament. But I mean, Ben brought it. What was your take on Ben now when you look at the stats, when you look at the 149 mile an hour serve, what is your take on him now having seen him play six matches? Well, the Tommy Paul match was really good. I liked how he managed the ability to say, okay, this is a ball to pull the trigger on. I spoke with his dad at the start of the tournament, and I mentioned possibly our discussion that we've had in other ones is that I think Ben's maturity is going to come from figuring out when there's one more ball that needs to be hit. There's just one more ball. And I think maybe I talked to you about it last time, but it goes back to me to the 2000 Australian Open final. Agassi beats Kefalnikov in four sets. Agassi's one in the world, Kefalnikov's two. Agassi goes to the post -match interview. Bruce McAvaney is interviewing there, and they're watching some film, and Agassi's just going, you know, Kefalnikov moves well, he lights the ball up, the surface helps him, and he throws this line in there, he goes in the middle, he goes, and he's only looking to pull the trigger one time in the point. So he's a really tough opponent. And that just has always stuck with me. And that's what I said to Ben's dad is that Ben needs to just go, I could pull the trigger on this ball, but it's not quite the right one yet. I could pull the trigger on the next ball. Literally, you could pull the trigger on every ball he hits. But growth, his his maturity, his tennis development and tennis IQ is getting better because you're hitting a ball that makes the opponent uncomfortable, you're hitting a ball that can extract an error, and you don't always have to hit the winner. So Ben's development is going to be predicated on one more ball in the court and making a better decision on when to pull the trigger. And I thought he did a great job in the Tommy Paul match and a great job in the Francis Tiafone match of not pulling too early. And then he went and played Novak and just everything went to hell in a hand basket. And it didn't. But that was, you know, I was for the Tiafone match getting back to that. You know, I'm watching at the start and the first kind of 10 minutes, it looked kind of even, you know, good decisions, both sides, good points, both sides. Francis was so quick coming to the net. He does such a great job of, you know, hitting a ball and he's already leaning on it, you know, with his short little backswing on the backhand. And all of a sudden he's almost leaning over the net, spiking these volleys. I'm like, oh, my God, this guy has figured out, you know, the only person I saw that really blew me out of the water with that was McEnroe, John McEnroe. He looked like he went through a time warp, whereas it takes, you know, all of us 1 .5 seconds to move from the baseline inside into the service box. But he goes through this time warp that looks like 0 .2 of a second. He's like, how does he get in there that quickly? Francis showed me that early on. But then the focus, the concentration, the locked in, the decision making started to erode at around the 10 to 15 minute mark, and he never recovered from that. Yeah. So you get Ben has Novak in the semifinals. And I think that Novak, I mean, just has this ability to you know, it's what I was it's kind of what Coco did. I call it cumulative pressure. And it is. I'm going to run the ball down, I'm going to make you hit an extra ball, I'm going to make you play one more ball every point on your serve so that later you feel it. You may not feel it now, but later you feel it. And that was an example of what I call cumulative pressure that kind of got to Ben. Yeah. What was your take on what Novak did to Ben or vice versa, what Ben did not do that match that he did the previous matches? Yeah, good point. That was that was a really fun match to be at the energy, the atmosphere, you know, the old guard, the new guard. You're exactly right. There was, you know, on that court in twenty eighteen, I worked with Novak to defeat Del Potro. And a lot of the commentators, when you go back and go through that match, they're like, Del Potro is dropping 135, 138 and Novak's putting it back in his shoes. And the commentators are like, how in the world is he doing this? Well, there's only one way that you do that is that you study Del Potro's patterns and you know what to say. When Del Potro needs a point in the juice court, he's going to and when he doesn't need a point, he's going to go, why? Novak's sitting there on it. And I felt the same thing is that Ben's dropping heat on especially on first serves. And Novak is putting so many balls back in play that you're exactly right, that it just kept accumulating and accumulating. The other thing that really stood out to me. That I don't know why is that Ben sliced so many returns, just this slow, just not even like a Federer kind of knifing, dark slice, it's this blocking slow slice that's not as good as Wawrinka's. It's not within a meter of the baseline. It's there was once he's just too defensive. So he's putting no pressure, no pressure on Novak because because he overdid the slice. Now, all of a sudden, he's got to deal with so many serves coming back and then the decision making. Then he starts, you know, the fingers kind of on the trigger, then he starts pulling it too much. And then, you know, Novak knows why this kid is potentially a real problem for me. But I've already figured him out about 15 minutes in. He's not doing anything against my serve. I'm doing everything against his serve and putting times back. I'm just going to press cruise control and take a nap for the next 30 kilometers. Yeah. And I think that was probably the one mistake and probably a tactic that was misinterpreted was, hey, if on his serve, put pressure on because you get racket on every ball, not to bunt every ball. Right. Because Novak is the is the history, the best returner in history, but he's not the best server in history. And he I don't want to call it vulnerable, but you will have an opportunity or two against Novak on his serve in a five set match. And I thought, Ben, with as great of a service he had, with as big of a service he has, he didn't take enough risks on the return gains and he didn't play. Correct. And when I say aggressive, I don't mean like crazy out of this world, we're winners, but controlled aggression. There was no reason Novak serving a buck 21, a buck 22 for you to block the serve back. You can have plenty of time to take a full swing and at least send a message for the rest of his career that your serve doesn't bother me. Right. Part of being a young guy is how do I apply cumulative pressure that may not work this match, but in three or four matches from now in the next semi? Right. Because you still got to go through Novak that shows them I'm not bothered by your serve and you better be you will be bothered by my serve. Right. And I think that was sort of a missed opportunity for Ben to take some cuts at Novak serve. And I think that set the tone for the match that allowed Novak to kind of steam roll.

Charlie, what you've done is incredible here. Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus. I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk's running the White House folks. I want to thank Charlie, he's an incredible guy, his spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job. Building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Brought to you by the loan experts I trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandtodd .com. Joining us now is Representative Andrew Clyde. Congressman, thank you for joining us. He tweeted out, the American people gets to decide who wins the White House, not the deep state. We must defund the left, sham prosecutions against Donald Trump. Republican lawmaker unveils push to block funding for Trump prosecutions, obviously, but this was met with opposition by 16 Republicans. Inexplicably, we will name their names shortly. Actually, we'll get to that. Congressman, thank you for joining us and tell us about it. Well, thank you, Charlie. It's great to be with you. Well, I think it's important that, as you said, the American people decide who our next president is going to be and not the deep state, not the weaponized government. And we are seeing time after time where the federal government is being used to prosecute a political candidate. That doesn't happen in America. That's kind of the conduct that you see in banana republics, where the sitting that those in power use their power to prosecute and try and throw in jail their political opponent. So these two amendments, so one would defund from the federal level any funds going to the prosecution of a presidential candidate between now and the November 24 elections, OK? And then the other amendment would do the same thing. It would deny federal funding to any state entity that does the same thing, that prosecutes a presidential candidate. It's very even handed, both Republican or Democrat. So what I'm trying to do is prevent the process from becoming the penalty here, because that's exactly what the left, the weaponized left is trying to do. Because you can't recover from the process. So how is this being met by and I was talking about actually when you tried to defund the FBI headquarters, we'll get that in a second. How is this being met by your more moderate Republican colleagues? Well, so far, for those that I have spoken to on the Appropriations Committee and in leadership, it's being met very positively. I think it's the right thing to do. There's still some work to be done. So I'm calling on all of my Republican colleagues to support these amendments. It's going to have to go into the Commerce Justice Science appropriation, which has not yet been marked up in our Appropriations Committee. I'm on that committee. And so I'll be offering both of those amendments and I expect that they will be approved and go into the base text of the bill. But then if we do a C .R. as well, you know, there's some qualifications for or any C .R. to go forward, in my opinion. Then it would have to be part of the C .R. as well. So I think it's very, very important that that all the Republicans get on board and support these amendments. So there was also a question about blocking the FBI's new headquarters. And is it true that 16 Republicans got in the way of that, Congressman, when you were attempting to do that? Tell us about it. Well, that was in the markup for the financial services and general government appropriation. And there is about six hundred and seventy million dollars that was set aside for the FBI's new building. It's about a little over half the amount that currently exists. The whole project is like four billion. It's going to be bigger than the Pentagon in size, which is absolutely ridiculous. The FBI does not need it by introducing an amendment to defund that six hundred and seventy million and to apply that to our national debt to pay off that portion of our national debt. And it did not pass in the in the appropriations process. We had 16 Republicans that voted against it. Now, I'll tell you that after that vote, there were some that came to me and said, hey, I think I made the wrong vote. And we're going to give them another opportunity when that actual appropriation comes to the House floor. I'm going to introduce the same amendment again. And I think there will be some change of heart, I believe, when it comes to their vote on that amendment on the House floor. So, yeah, there was a list of 16 Republicans that resisted it. Is that correct? And I want to that is correct. OK, so I want to name them. And if I have the wrong list, correct me. But it looks as if it's Steve Womack, David Valadeo, Mike Simpson, Hal Rogers, Daniel Newhouse, Julia Letow, David Joyce, Ashley Henson, Kay Granger, Scott Franklin, Jake Elsie, Mario Diaz -Balart, Juan Siscamani, Jerry Carl, Ken Calvert, Mark Amati and Robert Alderholt. What what possible reason could they give you for opposing that? Well, not a lot of them gave me a reason at all. But, you know, mind you, some of them came to me after the fact and said, hey, you know, I think I made the wrong choice. Why? Because they were hearing from their constituents. The FBI does not need a new building. I mean, they've got one point two billion dollars set aside, six hundred and seventy or so million in financial services, general government appropriation and another five hundred some million in the commerce justice science appropriation. So I think these folks will probably take a strong second look when the amendment comes onto the House floor for the FBI bill. And I believe that that there will be some change of votes. I really do. And I hope so, because that's the right thing to do. The FBI has been so weaponized as of in the last couple of years under this current administration. There is truly a two tiered system of justice here. We are seeing it time and time again when you have the treatment of Hunter Biden and then you have the treatment of President Trump. And all of those who support the conservative voices that are crying out. So I think we're going to see some different votes here. So let's now focus on September 30th. This looks to be the big day, right? So a previous Congress punted it to really, really neuter you guys. So this date has been on the calendar for quite some time. So you're inheriting a previous Congress's funding deadline, September 30th. What are you guys willing to do? Our position on this program, no short term funding bills, line in the sand. We need a fight. We gave you guys a majority for a reason. Where's your head at? What are the asks? Are you willing? How close to the line are you guys willing to get? Walk us through it. Well, I'll tell you, first off, you know, we've known the September 30th deadline has been here for a long time. And we promised as Republicans that we would bring 12 appropriation bills out of committee onto the House floor. And I expect us to do that. I expect us to keep our word. I'm on the Appropriations Committee. I'm certainly willing to be there from from today until the very end of September so that we can get all these, the rest of the appropriation bills across the finish line. Ten of them have come out of committee already. We've got two left to deal with in committee, both the Labor Health Human Services Education Appropriation and the Commerce Justice Science Appropriation. Those are the two we have left in committee. But we've got 10 that are available to go to the House floor. Actually, one already has the Milcon VA passed in July. So we've got nine that can go immediately to the House floor and get a vote. We need to be doing that to keep our word. Any short term continuing resolution, though, cannot be an unqualified or blind or what they call clean CR. Otherwise, we are simply promoting the policies of the policies and the spending levels of Nancy Pelosi. And that's wrong. I will never support that. And I'll tell you, a significant number of Republicans will not support that either. Well, that message needs to be heard loud and clear by the leadership. So just really quick, Congressman, and I just I'm hearing different things and I've always gotten along with Speaker McCarthy and I still do. But there's whispers that there might be a vote to vacate. Are you hearing that from other members? Well, I will tell you that a clean CR or an unqualified CR, it will risk our majority and therefore it will risk the speakership. I think what you're seeing is is the country gave us the majority to change the direction, change the course of Congress. We had the speakers fight in January, which I think fundamentally changed the way Congress operates. And I think that has to continue or we will truly jeopardize our majority and we will jeopardize Kevin McCarthy as speaker.
Stuff You Should Know
A highlight from Native American Reservations
"Welcome to Stuff You Should Know, a production of iHeartRadio. Hey, and welcome to the podcast. I'm Josh, and there's Chuck, and Jerry's here too, and that makes this Stuff You Should Know a Toodly -Doodly -Doo. That's great. Thanks. You're welcome. It has nothing to do with what we're talking about, I don't believe, but it was worth saying, I think. Do you know what does? What? The season three of Reservation Dogs. Yeah, that's why I figured you were probably, you suggested this topic. It's not why, actually, because I suggested this a long time ago. I've been sitting on this one and kind of forgot, but then Reservation Dogs season three, the finale season started, and I know we've talked about this show a lot, but big recommendation. A show shot and crewed up and written and directed and acted entirely by Native Americans. I believe it's shot inside the Muscogee Nation Reservation. And it's great. It's one of the best shows ever. Wow. That's full -throated endorsement, man. I'll have to check it out. It's awesome. It's funny and heartwarming and sweet and meaningful, and it's just really, really good. I would also direct people to the movie Smoke Signals that was made not too long ago. That depicts reservation life in a fairly lighthearted manner, but pretty accurately too. Yeah, and we also want to caveat this by saying this is a very broad overview of Native American or American Indian reservations. There's a lot to it and certainly could have been, you know, like five or six episodes long, but as we do, we try to give a good broad overview. That's how we do. That's right. And if this episode is banned in schools in Florida, listen to it outside of school. Just go travel to Valdosta and download it and go back to Florida. Exactly. That was an odd thing to say. What's sad is I have no idea what you're talking about, but I can totally believe what you just said is real. Well, the governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, is on a push to keep children from being indoctrinated by true history of our country. I see. And so he has, I believe it was in the gubernatorial debate, the last one, he was saying that his opponent said it was okay to teach that, you know, some of the land in America was stolen from the native indigenous people. And he said that's not appropriate for our schools and it's not true. Yeah, that's not true at all. No, it's not. And I'm not sure I get away with just saying completely untrue things on a debate stage. But yeah, that's where we are these days. For sure. So the very fact that reservations exist prove that that's true because the entire reservation system that we still have today that dates back to the 19th century and actually earlier was and is entirely a way of removing Native Americans from their traditional lands, putting them somewhere. They probably had never been and didn't know anybody. And then taking that land away and increasingly shrink the land that they have so that European colonists and then eventually American settlers, colonists, could take that land for themselves. And the reservation system is just proof that that is this it was this ongoing century plus long process that still has just very fresh wounds today. Like it's not like, okay, that happened in the past and things are good now. That is not the case in a lot of a lot of places. It's that happened in the past and the effects of it are still being felt generations later. Yeah, for sure. And before we get emails from people that say, you know, much of much of that land was negotiated for and there were treaties over it and deals made. That is that is certainly true. But much of it was also outright seized. And that's that's just a fact of what happened here. You know, dude, we don't need to debate somebody who's trying to tell us that the market didn't steal land from the native American. They don't even deserve our attention, let alone our breath. I agree these days. Just to start off with a stat for you and big thanks to Livia for helping out with this one. In the 2020 census, nine point seven million people in these United States identified as either Alaska native or American Indian. And although we'll talk a little bit about the fact that the census isn't always accurate when it comes to native populations. Yeah. But one point two million, 13 percent of those people live on reservations today as of, you know, a few years ago. Right. So we have a yeah, a big population of Native Americans. I think there's something like five hundred and thirty four tribes recognized by the federal government as their own tribe. But yeah, the vast majority do not live on reservations. The reason that some people live on reservations because they were born there, their parents were born there, that's just where they were raised. But another reason that a lot of Native Americans live on reservations is because that is the place where they can still do whatever they can to keep their culture alive in whatever ways that they can. And they have a certain amount of self -determination there because in the United States, reservations are considered sovereign nations. They're ruled by the tribe that whose reservation that is. So that's why there's casinos and that's why you can buy cigarettes for super cheap on a reservation and all sorts of other stuff. Why the state can't prosecute somebody for a crime that happened on the reservation if they're a member of the tribe. It's because it's like little pockets of independent nations that exist in the United States. Yeah, it's a little convoluted, but generally it's they're under federal law and purview, but not under state law. So like you were saying, that's why you can have casinos in states where you otherwise could not. Yeah, and I saw that even the federal law is usually kind of just the big stuff. Sure.
Stuff You Should Know
A highlight from Short Stuff: History of OK
"You know, there are some things in life you just can't trust, like a free couch on the side of the road, or the sushi rolls from your local gas station, or when your kid says they don't need the bathroom before the road trip. But there are some things in life you can trust, like the HP Smart Tank Printer. With up to two years of ink included and outstanding print quality, you can rely on the HP Smart Tank Printer from HP, America's most trusted printer brand. Hey, and welcome to The Short Stuff. I'm Josh, and there's Chuck and Jerry's here, too, standing in for Dave, and that makes The Short Stuff OK. Thanks to Dave Ruse and howstuffworks .com and Grammarly for this, because we're talking about OK, which some people say is one of the most versatile and one of the greatest words in the English language. And I don't disagree. I don't either. I say like more, but I think OK is probably second in my vocabulary. Yeah, absolutely. Grammarly will tell you that OK can be used in myriad ways, and it's a very versatile word. It can be used as an adjective. Oh, that's OK. Yeah, that's just OK. Like how was it? Eh, OK. Right, exactly. It can be an interjection. OK. OK, let's talk. Or someone's talking too much, OK, OK, right? Yeah. It can be used in the verb sense, like give me an example. That guy's really OK -ing that boat all over the lake. OK, that's not right. More like it's being OK -ed as we speak. Oh, good, yes, thank you. All right. Or it can be used in the noun sense. You want to try that one? I'm having an OK for breakfast. Nope. We got the OK. It's all good. Ugh. I know, so boring. OK. No, it's not boring. I'm just disgusted with myself. So very versatile word, and the origin of OK, I don't even think we should go over all what kind of dumb ideas people have had, because we're pretty sure we know where it came from, right? Oh, OK. See? OK. So, yeah, we know where it came from, almost certainly, thanks to an etymologist named Alan Walker Reed, who at some point apparently put down his insects in his lab and started researching origins, I don't know why. But Reed was working back in the 1960s, and he essentially, through really hardcore, old -timey, pre -internet research, traced back the origin of OK, the letter O and the letter K, and the meaning of it as we understand it. And it's got one heck of a rump -slappin' origin, if you ask me. Yeah, he also had a newsletter called Stuff You Should Know that ran for 15 years, but he only put out four topics, because it took him so long. Yeah, took a while. But this is the 60s even. That joke was not OK. It was OK. It was OK. So what he found out is the following. In the early 19th century, when printing was sort of a new, sort of, not new, but it was cheaper to do than it had been previously, and there was an explosion of printing. And one of the things that people started putting out were something on the penny press, like these, sort of, rags that had a little bit of news to them, but also some opinion stuff, some jokes, this is what's trending, this is a little witty poem, you know, just little things like that. Dave kind of likens it to the internet of the 1830s. And there was a lot of back and forth about this stuff through the editors of these penny papers. I guess they would, they would sort of respond to one another through their own penny papers. Yeah, they would trash talk one another, kind of like how our old stale rivalry with John Strickland. Oh, gosh. Kind of like that, right? So there was that trash talking or that joking, in -joking back and forth between editors of these penny papers coincided with a trend that Reed called a craze in, starting in the summer of 1838, that's how good this guy's research was, he pinned it down to that, starting in Boston, that people started using abbreviations for everything. It was like they thought that was so hilarious in 1830s Boston. Yeah, which is funny, like you think, you might think now is so over abbreviated, like this point in time with texting in the internet, with LOLs, and like I don't even know what half of them mean, I feel like. LOL means lots of love. Lots of love, okay, that's what I thought. But the craze started back then, and here's just a few examples that Dave dug up.

A highlight from 1387: One Bitcoin Will Be Worth $1 Billion By This Date - Fidelity
"Let's get it. In today's show, I'll be breaking down the latest technical analysis, as well as breaking news. Google Cloud to digitize El Salvador's governance, healthcare, and education, as well as Elon Musk's ex moves closer to crypto payments with their newest state license they just received, as well as breaking news. The SEC's first deadlines to approve seven Bitcoin ETFs are coming over the next week. We'll also be discussing Grayscale's roadmap to a Bitcoin spot ETF following the most recent SEC triumph, as well as Fidelity, one of the world's largest asset managers that currently control over four and a half trillion in assets under management are predicting a $1 billion price action for each Bitcoin. In fact, did you know they started accumulating Bitcoin all the way back in 2014, literally almost a decade ago? We'll also be taking a look at overall crypto market, all this plus so much more in today's show. 87. That's right. I'm your host JV. And we have a jam -packed session for you today. Looking at the market watch here, we can see Bitcoin after almost staying above 28 ,000. Unfortunately, it broke that support and we're back down to 27 ,200 at this time, but Ether also back in the red down 2 % for the day trading at just above $1 ,700. And checking out coinmarketcap .com, we're barely sitting above a trillion dollars, which is that milestone we've been sitting at for quite some time regarding the overall crypto market and about 34 billion in volume in the past 24 hours with the Bitcoin dominance at 48 .9 % with the Ether dominance at 18 .9%. And checking out the top 100 crypto gainers of the past 24 hours, we have XDC up 8 % trading at 6 .4 cents, followed by TonCoin up 6 % trading at $1 .75, followed by BlockStax up almost 3 % trading just under 53 cents and checking out the top 100 crypto gainers for the past week. Yesterday was a sea of green as the price action pumped literally $2 ,000 in a span of 30 minutes off of the news of the SEC losing their trial versus grayscale with the conversion of the GBTC product into a spot ETF. But today we have corrected some with HEXB crypto greed and fear index. We're currently rated a 49, which is neutral. Yesterday was a 39 in fear last week at 37 and last month a 50, which is neutral. So there you have it. How many of you are currently bullish on the king crypto? Let me know. And how many of you are anticipating a lower price action so you can keep stacking them sats on the low? Holla at your boy. Now let's break down today's Bitcoin technical analysis. Check out the charts and what is popping right now in the markets. As you can see here, Bitcoin drifted towards $27 ,000, which again, we're just sitting above $27 ,200 at the time of this recording. At the Wall Street open, the dust settled on the digital asset manager, grayscale's legal victory. Here you're looking at the Bitcoin one hour candle chart. Now data from Cointelegraph showed a positive verdict for grayscale against US regulators, sparking almost 8 % gains. Bitcoin managed to tap $28 ,100 on Bitstamp, its highest in almost two weeks, before returning to the current level. So despite closing the daily candle above two key moving averages, these had yet to return as definitive intraday support. And on the day, analysts were quite cautious. In a quick take post from on -chain analyst Crypto Quant, he goes on to share, noting that the grayscale move had originated on derivative exchanges. So despite funding rates remaining fairly neutral, there was a clear absence of value. However, it is difficult to see that the spot exchange led the price increase when the Bitcoin price rose yesterday. The reason is that the trading volume ratio shows that it had decrease rather than increase. Now additional data showed trading volumes were still below those seen during the upticks of earlier this year, quoting them here. Of course, there is a tendency for prices to change significantly, even with small trading volumes, because of the overall liquidity in the crypto market, which has decreased. However, it seems that there is a need to be a little cautious about the fact that this rally leads to a dramatic rally. Now let's discuss many similarities to Bitcoin's all -time high. According to crypto analyst Brett Capital, quoting him here, we're seeing many similarities between the double top of 2021 and what we're seeing right now, he warned. Should the similarities play out and Bitcoin produce a full fractal, 26 ,000 would flip from support to resistance to initiate further downside. So for the time being, we're seeing a lot of signs really playing into all of this in which he reiterated alongside this chart. Now, another target analysts are talking about right now is 23 ,000 becoming increasingly important. Rec capital likewise flagged that level of 23K as a prominent level versus the 2022 bear market bottom structure and inverse head and shoulders pattern, as he mentioned here, that's the level that we can see the price rebound from. So there you have it. Let me know if you feel we're likely to drop sub 25 ,000, potentially touch 23 before rising back up. Or do you think we'll take off from here, off of one of the biggest news stories of the year, which is a big fat L for the SEC and a big fat victory for the entire crypto industry. Let me know your thoughts. And with that being shared, fam, now let's discuss breaking news coming out of El Salvador with Google, which is actually quite interesting. Yesterday, I saw Nigel Bokele made a tweet and this is what it was in regards to Google Cloud announced a new partnership with the government of El Salvador. Interesting, right? On August 29th to establish an office and provide Google distributed cloud services in their country, the partnership aims to digitize the country, update government services and improve the healthcare and educational systems. The GDC will also help bring infrastructure closer to where data is generated for El Salvador. Bokele, the country's president said he believes El Salvador is quickly becoming a hub for innovation. As he shares here, El Salvador is moving forward. We believe technology and foreign investment are key for development. And here's where he announced the partnership in this, I shouldn't say tweet anymore, but on this post on X quoting Bokele, Google plans to establish operations in El Salvador and he shared the official press release from Google. Now, Thomas Curain, the CEO of Google Cloud said he believes cloud computing can truly transform Latin America. As shared here, access to cloud computing has dramatically expanded across industries and regions throughout the world, he said, enabling both small companies and the public sector to utilize the very same apps and services as more mature markets. Now, Cointelegraph also reached out to Google Cloud for additional comments on its recent expansion. The additional GDC infrastructure will help support El Salvador's active stance on Bitcoin adoption and integration into society. It allows for Bitcoin full nodes with ordinal protocol support. And additionally, back on August 8th, a few weeks ago, El Salvador granted the crypto exchange Binance a license to offer crypto services to users in the country. Bitcoin had began as legal tender in El Salvador back in 2021. And recently the Bitcoin Beach Initiative took to the classroom and taught over 25 ,000 students about Bitcoin, helping them earn a Bitcoin diploma via the country's educational system. The country has already seen immediate returns on the program with the example of one teenager who earned the diploma and then returned to his former school to teach the educators about the digital asset. That's what's up. I think mass adoption is likely to continue, especially in places like El Salvador that are ahead of the rest of the world. And I think more and more major companies are going to be opening up shop because it just makes so much sense. Why wouldn't they? That's why Binance just got their license. Jack Mallers Strike Company just got their license. Bitfinex got their license and they're opening up shop. And I believe that the Bitcoin game theory is in full effect and will continue to play out as the days go by. And with that being shared, fam, now let's break down our next story of the day. As you probably know, major news was actually released yesterday regarding X, which is the platform owned by Elon Musk to integrate crypto payments. We made a pretty big development, so let's break this down before we dissect the ETF deadlines. Rhode Island's regulators have granted X, formerly known as Twitter, a currency transmitter license, marking a step forward for the company's foray into the financial services sector. The license is legally required for companies conducting financial activities on behalf of users related to sending and receiving money, a definition that includes both fiat as well as crypto assets. Now, this approval will allow for X to custody, transfer and exchange digital currencies. Now, X's Rhode Island currency transmitter license was approved on August 28th, two days ago, according to the nationwide multi -state licensing system, NMLS. The move marks an important step forward for Elon's push for X to become an everything app, which would include crypto as well as fiat payments. Now, naturally, social networks like X are massive, so this could help usher in that mass adoption. Now, while sources have suggested that X's upcoming payments feature will initially only offer support for fiat currencies, Elon had reportedly instructed developers at X to build the platform's payment system in such a way that crypto functionality can be added into the future. Yeah, if you're not integrating Bitcoin into your payment system, then do you even have a payment system for the future as Bitcoin is the future of money? Just saying. The approval comes nearly two months after X secured money transmitter licenses, also in Michigan, Missouri, and New Hampshire, which were well -approved on July 5th. X's latest license marks a total of seven American states it secured transmitter licenses in, so my guess is they're going to have to continue getting more and more licenses for all the states. It remains unclear exactly what financial offerings will be made available if and when X rolls out their payments feature. People familiar with the company's plans have indicated that X will initially offer fiat currency transaction services similar to PayPal, which Musk co -founded with room for future crypto integration. Do you think Bitcoin will likely be an announcement that they will be accepting crypto payments? I mean, who cares about Doge if you don't have Bitcoin integrated? So, I feel Bitcoin is a given if they're going to be integrating crypto and it seems to be going that way. But how do you feel this is likely to play out? Let me know your honest thoughts in the comments right down below. And now let's break down everything you need to know regarding the recent spot ETF deadlines for the United States and regulators. And after we discuss all these deadlines, we're going to specifically be talking about the GBTC Grayscale product, getting that victory over the SEC and what that means moving forward with the Grayscale Bitcoin ETF. And then we'll be dissecting Fidelity, one of the largest asset managers in the world, and their $1 billion Bitcoin price prediction. And then we'll wrap up with our live Q &A. So yeah, let's discuss this. The US SEC is facing its first deadlines to decide on seven spot Bitcoin ETF apps, with the latest being September 4th, which is what, virtually five days away amid its defeat to Grayscale Investments in the US Federal Appeals Court. Investment firm Bitwise will learn if its ETF will win the SEC's approval September 1st, which is what, two days away. While BlackRock, VanEck, Fidelity, Invesco, and WisdomTree will all be awaiting the SEC's decision for their funds by September 2nd, three days away, according to several SEC filings. So, that's right around the corner. It's going to be a big week. Meanwhile, Valkyrie is set to hear back from the SEC on September 4th. The US Court of Appeals ruled on August 29th that the SEC's rejection of Grayscale's app to convert their GBTC into a spot Bitcoin ETF was arbitrary and capricious. But this doesn't mean that the SEC must approve Grayscale's app or others in the future, says Bloomberg ETF analyst, James Safart. And in August 29th Bloomberg Review, he explained that Grayscale's win will definitely increase the odds of a successful outcome for the SEC. But he is unsure when that day may come though, as the SEC can delay his decisions and has two more proposed deadlines for each fund before being forced to make a final decision on the 240th day post filing. Now, what a shame it would be if they make us wait the 240th final day before giving an answer. But hey, don't run it by them. I mean, don't put it past them, especially with Mr. No Clarity Gary as the chairman. But anyways, for the awaiting applicants, the final deadlines for the SEC are all in mid -March of next year. And as someone shared here, odd and free, 99 .9999 % chance that the world doesn't know that the SEC has to decide on seven Bitcoin ETFs within the next three days. And this does include the largest asset manager in the world, BlackRock, Bitwise, VanEck, WisdomTree, Investico, Fidelity, and Valkyrie. The suits are at our doorstep per each. And how many of you weren't aware of that, that the decision within the next seven days is going to be on those seven major asset managers. Now, after the August 29th ruling in favor of Grayscale, the regulators have 90 days to file an appeal with the US Supreme Court or apply for an en banc review where the full circuit court can overturn a ruling made by a three judge panel. However, the SEC hasn't made clear what the next move will be. If the SEC doesn't appeal, the court will need to specify how its ruling is executed, which could include instructing the SEC to approve Grayscale's app or at the very least revisit it. But either way, Safer only saw two viable options for the regulator. The first option is to concede defeat and approve Grayscale's conversion of its GBTC as a Bitcoin spot ETF. But alternatively, the SEC would need to revoke the listing of Bitcoin futures ETFs entirely or deny Grayscale's app based on a new argument, says Safer, quoting him here, the second potential avenue is to deny on reasons not used before yet, which I have been saying for months could have to do with custody or settlements of Bitcoin, which is not something that futures ETFs have to worry about. The SEC has made a lot of noise around custodians. However, fellow Bloomberg ETF analyst, Eric Balchunes, considered the odds of the SEC revoked in the Bitcoin futures ETFs as highly unlikely because of the SEC reported openness to Ethereum futures ETFs, in which he makes a great point, quoting Eric here. This guy turned the last paragraph of Judge Rao's legal smackdown today into a MGMTS stylish banger, really captures the modern. Well done. Well, so there you have it. I guess this is some song I haven't even listened to yet. So I'll jam to it a little later on. We'll see if it's any good. But anyways, fam, how do you think this is likely to play out by the SEC? Do you think they're likely to approve any of these seven ETFs or do you think they'll just continue to push it back until next year? Let me know your honest thoughts in the comments right down below. Now let's dive deeper with the latest breaking news regarding the grayscale ETF and their conversion of their product into a spot ETF. And did you know that their product literally has over 600 ,000 BTC? Hence, they'd be the perfect candidate for a spot Bitcoin ETF because they already hold the underlying asset. They don't need to purchase it. So I mean, they'd be a prime candidate along with BlackRock. Which one will get approval first is the million dollar question, but let's break it down. In a seismic shift for the Bitcoin industry, the DC Circuit Court ruled in favor of grayscale investments yesterday, which is breaking news, which we've been hearing all across social media. Now, Jake Stravinsky, the chief policy officer at Blockchain Association, described the ruling as massive, emphasizing it's extremely rare for a federal circuit court to find an agency like the SEC in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act. Stravinsky stated that the DC Circuit soundly rejected the SEC's view that grayscale's ETF proposal was not designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices. So good for them. He also pointed out that the court did not order the SEC to approve the proposal, but rather mandated a review of grayscale's proposal with the court's ruling in mind. Stravinsky speculated on two possible scenarios for the SEC's next steps. One theory suggests the SEC could find another reason to include no clarity Gary towards crypto. And alternatively, the SEC might take this as a semi graceful exit from their anti ETF stance, especially under political pressure from traditional finance sectors ready for a Bitcoin ETF as we are long overdue. They first rejected the first Bitcoin ETF for a spot in the United States over a decade ago. And the app was from the Winklevoss twins with Gemini, just FYI. Now, many other issuers have proposed ETFs this year, include BlackRock and Larry Fink throws heavy punches in DC. Therefore, here's what the lawyer thinks. The only question is if the SEC wants to make this more painful for itself. Trust me, if there is another denial, there'll be another lawsuit. I strongly recommend that the SEC picks sooner. Let's see. Now, James Safart, the ETF analyst over at Bloomberg, corroborated the significance of the ruling stating it's a complete and utter rebuke of the SEC spot Bitcoin ETF denial orders. And quoting him here, I was initially thinking something like a deadline of 45 days or 60 days, but nothing in here saying that. However, he noted that the SEC has 45 days to file for that en banc hearing, which would involve all 17 judges on the court, good Lord, as opposed to the initial subset panel of only three judges. The Bloomberg analysts also outlined two main motions for the SEC. If they still wish to prevent the spot Bitcoin ETFs from listing, they either need to revoke the listing of Bitcoin futures ETFs or denied based on new reasons, possibly related to custodial or settlement issues, which have been a focal point for the SEC staff accounting bulletin 121. Now, Adam Cochran, partner of CEHV added another layer to the timeline speculation. He alludes to the SEC's pending decision on six other Bitcoins spot ETF filings due by September 1st for Bitwise and September 2nd for BlackRock, Fidelity and others. Here's what he had to share. Some folks are getting ahead of themselves thinking that grayscale decisions means bulk approval of ETFs by this Friday. Likely not the case. My hunches were looking at a late October, November timeline for an approval still, unless the SEC appeals in which case next spring. Now I'm not a gambling man, but if I was a gambling man, I just want to throw out there. I don't think the SEC has any intention to approve a spot Bitcoin ETF in the United States anytime soon because their actions demonstrate the complete opposite. The only thing they have interest in approving are more futures ETFs so they can continue to manipulate the markets through derivatives, which are financial weapons of mass destruction. Quoting Warren Buffett, it is what it is, but nonetheless, this is still a victory overall because they could only push it back for so long. And especially with BlackRock demanding, I shouldn't say demanding, but in so many words, they're the one that started this domino effect with new ETF apps arising with the SEC. They are the largest asset manager in the world, controlling over $10 trillion in assets under management. So I think if Larry Fink wants something, it's going to get done. But the million dollar question becomes when? I think they're going to push it back this year and probably spring next year, we're going to finally start to see the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States. And as soon as we get that approval, that can help usher in literally trillions upon trillions of dollars that are currently sitting on the sidelines directly in to the best crypto asset in the world, which is none other than BTC. If you'd love to see that happen, let me know. And by what date or deadline do you think we're likely to get that first approval? And you already know once that approval comes, money is going to start ushering in and the Bitcoin price is going to go parabolic and in perfect time because we also have another major bullish catalyst around the corner. Six months out, the scheduled halving is estimated to be sometime in April of 2024. So between the ETF apps being approved by the United States regulators and the Bitcoin halving, I couldn't be more bullish on Bitcoin right now, which leads us to our next story of the day, which is going to be a $1 billion prediction from one of the largest asset managers in the world, which is Fidelity. Let's break this down. Then we'll dive into our live Q &A. Make sure to say hello in the live chat. Let me know where you're tuning in from. A massive shout out to everyone interacting. I greatly appreciate all the continued support. So here we go. $1 billion. That's a lot of zeros. That is nine to be exact. In 2021, a billion dollars seems like a lot of money. FYI, Fidelity initially made this prediction in 2021. I also want to point out here from some tweets, Fidelity head of sales, quoting them here, we started mining and accumulating Bitcoin all the way back in 2014. I bet you a lot of you did not know that. This was kind of under the radar, but they have been accumulating BTC almost for the past decade. So is this a surprise that they're predicting a $1 billion Bitcoin price by 2038? They're putting their money where their mouth is. But anyways, we have Julian Timmer, Director of Global Macro Fidelity, believing that one Bitcoin could be worth $1 billion per coin by the year 2038. Send it and let's go. Timmer also believes that the orange coin could hit $1 million before this decade is over, which means by the year 2030, roughly seven years away. So that would represent a 20X multiple, the current Bitcoin market price of 48 ,000. But now obviously we're half that price of what we was. So that would now be 40X. And I know anyone can make predictions like that, but Timmer lays out his cause using his own valuation model and another well -known model, which we all know here on the channel, known as the stock, the flow. Timmer's demand model is based upon Metcalfe's law. Metcalfe holds that as the number of users of a network grows linearly, the value of the network grows exponentially. Thus, if the number of users doubled, its value would grow at four times or the square of two. Now Timmer's demand model grows steadily to about $1 million by the chart. Now, by contrast, now let's discuss the stock to flow model created by synonymous analysts. Plan B is based on the supply of new coins growing at a decreasing rate each year. This occurs because of the built -in happenings every four years. So given increases and adoption and demand, the result will be prices expanding exponentially. Indeed, the price of Bitcoin has grown approximately 10X every four years. Take that, Peter Schiff. These are facts, not just by 50 % slowdown in supply, pretty powerful stuff. That's right. Now, stock to flow predicts even faster growth in the price than does Timmer's demand model, especially after the year 2030. As I commonly cover here in the show, the stock to flow model is projecting roughly a half a million dollar Bitcoin price past the halving in 2024. In fact, the model shows a very wide array in their expectation, anywhere from a hundred thousand to a million dollars, with a half a million being dead in the middle, hence in a couple of episodes previously, if you missed it, we discussed Plan B's most recent prediction, which he shared on his YouTube channel, that he believes the Bitcoin price will be north of $530 ,000 per coin proceeding the Bitcoin halving in 2024. But let's get back to this math. This is the stock to flow model you're looking at right here. Now let's go back over here. This is some more insights. Timmer stated the value of the dollar changes in relation to other assets. And he further pointed out that just a dollar invested in stocks in the 18th century would be worth $4 billion in today's money. Isn't that insanity? Talk about super hyperinflation. So going by this assumption, $1 million in today's money can be worth a billion dollars in 20 years time. Good Lord. You better start stacking them now, fam. So changes in the dollar's value, especially depreciation over several decades, render the same amount with less purchasing power, which is why huge sums back then appear less by today's standards. For instance, $1 million can purchase a lot of significant things a few decades ago, but in today's perspective, reasonably higher end houses in the US cost between, I would say $200 ,000 and $500 ,000. The same $1 million may not suffice for the same class of houses today. This is a fact. Just here in Puerto Rico alone, I've seen the real estate market literally shoot up 100 to 300 % since moving to this island roughly four years ago. And that's not just an exception to the rule. It's all across the United States, hyperinflation. I mean, check out the rent prices. That will give us some insights to the true nature of inflation. You can check out Zillow, check out real estate five years ago in comparison today, and you'll probably see something quite similar. But anyways, there's an increasing number of billionaires across the globe. Facts. Some observers even believe we may see the first trillionaire in this lifetime. I think it could potentially be CZ, the finance CEO, or even Michael Saylor of MicroStrategy. Now, the same applies to organizations with several companies now passing the $1 trillion mark valuation cap. Fidelity previously pegged Bitcoin to hit $1 million in initial prediction made by Jerry and Timmer by the year 2035. However, he ultimately said, we're way too conservative. Let's move this target on up from $1 million by the year 2035 to $1 billion by the year 2038. So there you have it. Do you feel the Bitcoin price can likely exceed their conservative target of $1 million by the year 2030 within the next seven years and hit as high as $100 million to $1 billion per coin by the year 2038?

Yeah, and depending on what culture you are from and your your ancestry is Sort of about you might have a long rich tradition of evil eye shooters or or Blaming everything that happens to you. That's bad on an evil eye that was shot your way Yeah, because it's not just stuff that happens to you directly like an injury or an illness It can also be things that happen to the things you depend on like your smartphone Exploding in your pocket. Remember what that used to happen. Yeah They are blowing a tire smartphones did They didn't catch on fire, right? Am I making that up? There were like mild explosions with some I want to say an Android at some point in time Yeah blowing up in people's pockets and everyone's like ha boy remember when that was a thing Yeah, and now they're right back in her pockets again back in the aughts. Yeah. Everybody's like, I don't care I love smartphones so much. I'll just take the risk. That's right so back to Antonio who wrote the book the evil eye he is Catholic and Italian and he said, you know, we don't even have like baby showers over here like that That's considered bad luck to have a baby shower. Like you're tempting fate or something like that yes, so it's a you know, sort of a superstitious danger and Over there and this is kind of true anywhere in any culture that has an evil eye history They will have protections against evil eyes like amulets and things like that and pregnant women would wear amulets in Italy Apparently at least in his family and they would say these special prayers to ward off the evil eye Yeah, and the reason why Having something like a baby shower would tempt fate and maybe attract an evil eye Is that it could be taken as like a boast or something and roasting can generate? Envy or jealousy and envy or jealousy can shoot out of your eyes as the evil eye and then your smartphone blows up in your Hand during the baby shower. Yeah, look at me I made a human and in particular babies children pregnant women and animals are the most vulnerable to the evil eye Although it can happen to anybody But there's different traditions and customs for protecting against the evil eye Depending on where you are in the world. Like you said in Turkey when you are a newborn baby You're gonna get what's called a nazar? Which is a dark blue? Circle with a white circle inside it in a dark blue circle inside the white circle and it's meant to be an eye And Chuck I say we take a break and we'll come back and tell everybody whose eye it is after this know ooh You friends seeing a doctor when you're sick is enough to make you sick or sicker and involves a lot of time and Effort at a time when you're least equipped to provide either so we want to talk about Teladoc, which is a far better alternative It's putting the humanity into health care. Yeah, think about what happens when you're sick and you have to see a doctor You've got a schedule an appointment and that could take days sometimes weeks to get in then you have to go to the doctor Even though you're probably feeling miserable and then you have to wait in the appropriately named waiting room Exposed to whatever the people around you are coughing and spewing into the air. It's a thing Well with Teladoc Health you can get in touch with a doctor 24 hours a day 365 days a year all from the comfort of your own home Just open the Teladoc Health app and get a diagnosis treatment plan and prescription if needed from a board -certified provider Download the app to get started today or go online to register or schedule a visit at Teladoc Health dot -com slash stuff That's T E L A D O C health dot -com slash stuff People are excited about what AI will do for them at IBM We're excited about what AI will do for business your business Introducing Watson X a platform designed to multiply output by tailoring AI to your needs when you Watson X your business You can build AI to help coders code faster customer service respond quicker and HR handle repetitive tasks in less time Let's create AI that transforms business with Watson X learn more at IBM comm slash Watson X IBM. Let's create a Horace it's the eye of Horace. Oh, wow. That was quick. Yeah Yeah, and like you said depending on where you are you might have different traditions for warding this thing off a lot of these countries are Middle Eastern or somewhere around the Mediterranean Sea I believe Dave Even said in his own family his grandmother in the Jewish tradition would tie Ribbons on cribs and things like that to ward off the evil eye or potential bad luck for newborn babies in that right? Yeah for sure in India They'll put some coal a black dot on the in Infants face and all these the point of these the nazar the red ribbon the black dot on the face They're meant to protect they're they're basically amulets or talisman that can protect against the evil eye and one reason why they based that on the eye of Horace is because in ancient Egypt the eye of Horace was painted on homes painted in tombs and it offered protection from evil or malintent or all sorts of problems even back then and so it kind of got mmm, you know how they take like You century know it goes from really ornate to like really stylized and simple That's basically what happened to the eye of Horace when it became the nazar. Yeah, that's a good way to say it Well, thank you and our book author also like you mentioned his grandmother Paglia Rulo's Grandma would keep a bowl of water in her kitchen and poured little drops of olive oil in there and look at the shapes and the patterns that the oil would take and Apparently that would inform her on the evil eye and if there was like someone in her family that was potentially in danger or a neighbor or something that Possibly will be or was stricken with the evil eye and I thought that was really interesting I don't know if it literally was like hey that looks like Our Gary our neighbor, right or if it's just you know, kind of reading the tea leaves, right? I'll put that olive oil was so good, too So you said that this all kind of came out of the Mediterranean did you not yes They've traced it back at least 5 ,000 years ago to tell Brock which is a city in Mesopotamia Which is tell Brock is a modern -day Syria right now and they found tiny figures that all kind of bear a resemblance to one another They call them eye idols and that they think that these offered protection as well Did you look up the eye idols of tell Brock do I didn't if? Et is not based on that. I will eat my head It's Identical to eat. It's crazy how much it looks like et man There's nobody who's seen et and would see one of those and be like, I don't know like it looks exactly like et All right, I'm looking it up and that is et. Yeah in that nuts That is et. I mean that is unmistakably an et head, right? But also even the body resembles et the proportions and everything. Yeah, that's true I don't see any arms and legs, but it does have that big squatty body. Well, thank God I don't have to eat my hat today Because they just pile on everything else bad that's happened. Was it like a sweaty old baseball cap. Mm -hmm Salty, you know, it's got the white salt streaks. It'll never come out. No, thanks So, I guess that's about it, huh for for evil eye. I got nothing else. Yeah There's all sorts of amulets and talisman you can use to protect yourself If you feel like somebody gave you the evil eye you can also say please don't look at me like that anymore I don't know what's wrong with you. That will also dispel the magic too. That's right.
Thinking Crypto News & Interviews
A highlight from ELON MUSK'S TWITTER X CRYPTO PAYMENTS LICENSE! CIRCLE USDC LATAM, GRAYSCALE SEC VICTORY COMMENTS!
"Welcome back to the Thinking Crypto Podcast, your home for cryptocurrency news and interviews. If you are new here, please hit that subscribe button as well as the thumbs up button and leave a comment below. If you're listening on a podcast platform such as Spotify, Apple or Google, please leave a five -star rating and review. It supports the podcast and it doesn't cost you anything. Well, folks, I want to start off with big news around X, also known as Twitter. They have acquired a license that would allow them to integrate crypto payments. So Elon continues his push forward to build out X as this super payment social media app. And of course, it's going to include cryptocurrencies. And we know Elon, he understands crypto and blockchain. He understands payments, right? Man holds Bitcoin, Ethereum and Dogecoin. He said this, his companies have Bitcoin on their balance sheet. And we've seen that he's talked about integrating Doge as like the main crypto payment. But obviously it's going to be multiple currencies. And I had interviewed the CEO of eToro, which had partnered with X to integrate crypto and stock data. So Elon is moving forward and this is a big license. So here are some details. The Rhode Island currency transmitter license was approved to X on August 28th, according to the data displayed on NMLS. The license is required to provide virtual asset related services on behalf of users. So this is pretty cool. It will enable the social media platform to store, transfer and exchange digital assets for its massive user base. This is pretty big folks, and it comes as no surprise. Elon is moving full steam ahead. I'm sure he's looking to target some sort of launch as we enter the next bull market, right? 2024 to 2025. We'll see what the timing is, but we know for the most part, X is going to include crypto payments and crypto functionality and blockchain. To what degree? I'm not sure. We'll have to wait and see, but definitely bullish news because this platform is going to be used by millions of users. Now we got big news around Circle and USDC. So Jerry Miller, the CEO of Circle tweeted out the largest FinTech in Latin, which is in Latin America, Mercado Pago. Part of Mercado Libre is the Amazon of LATAM with 200 million users is rolling out support for USDC in key markets, starting with Chile momentum for USDC and digital dollars building around the world. This is very bullish for Circle and LATAM is a massive market. And we know a lot of folks want to use a US dollar stable coin for payments. And is USDC a big one, right? The second largest stable coin in the world behind Tether. So big move here by the folks at Circle and USDC. Jeremy continues. He said, we recently shared that approximately 70 % of our USDC adoption was non -US and a lot of that is driven by emerging markets. Latin American FinTechs will be a major driving force in the adoption of digital dollars. Here's our analysis. He provided a full link. So very bullish news, folks, and the token economy I've been talking about for years is being built right before our eyes, right? Everything running on the blockchain. You have cryptocurrencies, digital assets, stable coins, tokenization, CBDCs, and much more. Now, quick word from our sponsor, and that is Uphold, which is a great, great platform that I've been using since 2018. I've been buying a lot of crypto on here. It's easy to use this platform. They have a full website and app and much more. They have 10 plus million users, 250 plus cryptocurrencies, and they're available in 150 countries. They also offer precious metals and you can trade between cryptocurrencies and precious metals. So really cool. And if you'd like to learn more about Uphold, please visit the link in the description. Well, folks, earlier today I did a podcast talking about Grayscale's victory over the SEC. The SEC was trying to deny their Bitcoin spot ETF and the court said, no, we're not having that because the things you did were arbitrary and capricious. Now, one of the things here that was highlighted by the documenting Bitcoin Twitter handle is how many headlines from mainstream media covered this news. And it's all bullish. I mean, we're talking TechCrunch, CNBC, Fortune, ABC, Financial Times, Reuters, the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, CNN, and much more. And what I tweeted out regarding this, I said, you've lost the narrative, Gary Gensler, and the optics for you and the SEC are looking very bad. Time to resign. And I think, as I've said many times, optics is a big part of politics and there's a lot of Democrats that are already distancing themselves from Gary Gensler and I expect more too. This will also further push Congress to work together to pass crypto regulations. So I don't know what's going to happen over the next month if Gary is going to resign or what. He may be able to shake down small crypto companies, but he's losing the larger narrative, right? Yesterday, we talked about Impact Theory, NFT settlement with the SEC, but Impact Theory is a podcast. It's not some big company, market moving company or news, but this certainly is the court siding with Grayscale for a spot Bitcoin ETF. Now, something that's important, folks, even though the court sided with Grayscale, the SEC hasn't actually approved the Bitcoin spot ETF. And we have some folks weighing in on this, including Ripple CEO and Caitlin Long and many more. So let me share what they had to say. Caitlin Long said, still shocked at how much the Biden administration's hatred of anything crypto drove it to poor judgment, now boomeranging back on it in courts. Better to have worked with law abiding players. This was their choice. Courts curbing federal agencies power impacts far more than crypto. She's absolutely right. And you know, she mentioned it under the Biden administration because Gary Gensler is appointed by Biden and the Democrats, right? And we see that Janet Yellen and all these people have been anti -crypto. Caitlin's been fighting her own battle with the Fed and trying to get, you know, part be part of one of the Federal Reserve's registered banks. And she has a crypto bank, but we know the Fed has been stonewalling her, blocking her. And we know why, right? They were just trying to slow crypto down, you know, slow these startups down so that the stratifying comments can come in and take over.

So this is Stuff You Should Know, the wacky Strange History edition, yet another one. I love this one. We got a few people to thank out of the gate for this, if I may. Sure. First of all, we want to thank listener Brennan Wilson, who gave this idea to us through email. I had never heard of it before, so Brennan sent this in, and I did a quick search, as I always do when someone sends in something, and thus it's like, oh, do one on shoe soles. But when it's something I hadn't heard of, I always look it up, and I was like, oh man, this is a really good one. I didn't know about this. So big thanks to Brennan. Big thanks to Livia, who put this one together and helped us out. And Livia actually said we should thank a couple of people in particular that sort of wrote the book, well, literally and figuratively, on Fordlandia. Greg Grandin wrote a book called Fordlandia, colon, The Rise and Fall of Henry Ford's Forgotten Jungle City. Spoiler alert. And then there was a paper in the late 70s by a guy named John Gailey in the Journal of Inter -American Studies and World Affairs that also had a lot of good stuff. So thanks to everyone involved. Here we go. Wow, that was a lot. I was waiting for you to tell us who Greg Grandin said we should thank. Yeah, right. Mom. So we are talking about Fordlandia. We are talking about what you could call Ford's Folly. Just to kind of strip it bare right out of the gate. It was Henry Ford's misadventure down in the Amazon where he tried to build a model utopian society based on rural midwestern America. Right, in the Amazon. In the Amazon. That's a big catch right there because he didn't try to do it in Omaha or Topeka. He chose the Amazon over Topeka and I think that says a lot about Topeka. Yeah. Oh, we love Arkansans. I hope they know that. All but one. All but one. That's right. All right, so we should talk a little bit about the sort of weirdo that was Henry Ford. Maybe we should do a whole one, a whole ep on him one day. I didn't know a ton about the guy. He did a lot of great stuff. Was also not great in a lot of ways. That's such a recurring theme. I know. In 1903 is where the Ford Motor Company was born in Dearborn, Michigan. And thanks to the Model T, it changed America. It was a car that was available, more available than any car had ever been to like regular Americans. He paid his workers a living wage, which at the time was five dollars a day. And he also had a lot of strings attached to that good wage and those good jobs along the lines of like, hey, I know we're a car company, but let's have a sociology department in our company where we send out hundreds of investigators around Dearborn into the homes of my employees to make sure that the kids are going to school and everything is tidy, the wife isn't working and that people aren't drinking booze. Yeah, it was the Ford Motor Company equivalent of the Gestapo, the secret police who they weren't coming to like your company owned house that you lived in on the Ford Motor Company campus. This is your house in Michigan and these people felt totally fine coming by and checking on your family to make sure that you were living up to Henry Ford's personal standards of old timey, squeaky clean American -ness. Yeah, but at the same time, he would also, like I said, pay them a good wage. He would give them great health care. He would help citizenship along if he had immigrants working for them. He would help them with their applications, help them get home loans. So it was one of those things where he was like, I feel like I'm paying you well and I'm doing a lot of good for you and your family and that gives me the right as really just your uber boss to dictate how you should live your life as well. It's insane. It is. He was an anti -Semite. It's pretty well trod that Hitler was at least in part inspired by the writings, the anti -Semite, anti -Semitic writings of Henry Ford. Yeah. He was a huge fan of square dancing. You could call it an obsession essentially.

Jerry Dunleavy: 'Kabul' Describes How Bad Afghanistan Was
"Level of incompetence people falling from planes you have this new book out Kabul you one of the premises in the book is that yeah we saw all this awful stuff people getting beaten and getting whipped going to gays people fought literally falling off of planes it's a not figurative statement you know women and kids being kept out from evacuation but your book says it's even worse than that so give us kind of a it's an inside scoop about how bad it actually wasn't the stuff we didn't see X absolutely but let's talk just about the Abbey Gate I mean to start so the the Biden administration's sort of line is that the Abbey Gate attack was not preventable and basically in our book we kind of lay out how we believe that it very likely was the the first point is that the Isis K terrorist who carried out that deadly suicide attack that killed 13 Americans. His name is Abdul Rahman Al Agri. The Biden administration won't say his name but he was in prison at Bagram when United the States abandoned it in July 2021 and so he was freed by the Taliban on August 15th 2021 and then carried out that terrorist attack on August 26 2021. So the simple fact is that if we had just maintained Bagram which we should have done for about a dozen different reasons including it was more defensible it would have been a much safer place to do an evacuation from we would have had far fewer Americans and Afghan allies left behind I believe if we had kept Bagram but also if we had kept Bagram that prisoner would have just been behind bars rather than the Taliban freeing him and him killing those 13 Americans and we laid out in the book how a there were few other potential opportunities to either stop that bomber or to hit ISIS before the bombing and try to disrupt their attack so that kind of gives you a sense

Jerry Dunleavy: Biden Took a Permanent Hit After Afghanistan
"The show Dan thanks well no listen my pleasure we cited your work often you were great on the whole Spygate collusion thing you were one of the few guys actually doing real journalism and that's appreciated we need more of that I mean we yeah there are enough opinion hosts around we need people getting the facts out there listen before I I want to get into the book in a second I got a ton of questions on I just want to get your general take on you know as a reporter right now but you know you see this primary going on see you Biden in the low 30s there I mean I excuse me mid 30s approval 30 35 percent approval doing terrible on the economy and I think back to the old you know Jim Carville line you know it's the stupid economy I mean I know anything can change between now and the election but what's your general feel about how this thing is going and how it could go down next year it's it's tough for me to say I mean if I had to guess it's a toss up right now and you know I think that Biden did take a permanent hit to his approval in 2021 when this Afghanistan debacle and happened I think that's I don't want to interrupt you but that's exactly why I asked but go because that did everything changed after that but go ahead exactly and you know his approval rating really hasn't recovered because I think that people that were willing to give him a chance people that were willing to you know see if he's competent and capable and then people that bought into the narrative about his empathy I think all of that was shattered with the with the debacle in Afghanistan with Americans being left behind Afghan allies being left behind the Taliban taking over 13 Americans being killed in that Paris attack I think that really did do permanent damage to President Biden's standing and I think that the debacle in Afghanistan

"I just believe though you always use the last election, right? I was everybody that listens to this knows who I voted for. It's not a surprise anymore, right? I was through and through for Donald Trump. I did that was my first big year with doing radio. I'll do an interview. I loved his personality personally. I know that's not a popular opinion. And I loved his policy. I was a big fan of Donald Trump. But that doesn't, you know, at the end of the day, he lost, and I had to go to work on Monday. Greater Wednesday, because the election was a Tuesday. So that's what I get being so ingrained like my whole life is politics now. It's all we do in this office is politics between radio and our clients. I mean, how many clients a week talked about politics? Every one of them? Right. It's what we're ingrained in, but at the end of the day, you got to just, you got to let it go and keep going. And that's what I get your point that it's emotional for them, but it's emotional for me too, right? But as long as you're able to take if I tell you, if I prove you wrong on a subject, right? As your, are you going to crumble as a person? Well, no, yes, that's right. No, I will not. That's the difference there. If you won't listen to you prove them wrong. Because you're destroying them. Right. When you start and you say, hey, this is the fact this is a factor like, you're too crazy for a man. They just walk around. Well, this gets to the point of saying something like, I hate you or saying I hate your behavior. I don't hate a person. I hate what they do. I hate that they might be a certain way. So if you never get past that though, if you are a trumper, I hate you. Right. Really? So there's no more conversation. If you do that, they're winning. If you hate somebody, because of their beliefs, that they're winning. No matter what the votes are. You know? But if you're wanting to take away like, see, I see things like this. If you want to take away my right to defend myself, you are an enemy to the nation. Period. There's no discussion about it. We have about hundreds of years of this..

"What is the point of living if you never have to venture out into the darkness? If you're always in this little thing and you never get to do anything, what is the point of being? So Jerry, I taught one of my careers, I guess, and I early 30s into my early 40s. I was a teacher. And I would literally draw on the board. Listen, students, mostly like fourth, 5th graders, right? I draw a little circle and I would say comfort zone and I'd say, listen, right now, a lot of them were shy. They didn't want to say anything. They were embarrassed or whatever. What we need to do guys is make this circle of comfort zone bigger. You know, we're going to do that. You're going to get out of it once in a while. And every time you get out of it, we're going to make the circle bigger. And I think they're comfort zone is berate you know, call you names. They don't listen. They don't invent things. They don't build things. They don't think of things to do. They don't help people. Yeah, it's called socialism is what they want. Why do you want that up? 'cause I have a view on that actually. We had this whole demographic of people that are not contributing to society. They're getting hand out from the government and they're using their spare time to push political narratives. At the same time, men like ourselves are at work working 40 plus hours a week. You know, 5, 6, 7 days a week, 8, ten, 12 hours a day. By the way, the skill trades and the one ones I work with, it is very, very normal to work 7 days a week, 12 hours a day for months on end. We don't have a lot of time to be plugging into these politics. We want to go home. We want to kiss her king good night. We want to have dinner and then do it all again so we can actually provide for our families..

"Today, we have a gentleman I'd say that before a confrontation with then president candidate Joe Biden probably wasn't a household name, but Jerry Wayne, you are becoming a household name. So welcome to our podcast. Thank you for having me. I really appreciate it. And yeah, you know, I talk about labels. I actually, I'm so labeled as the auto worker too. And I don't know how to work or I don't know why they started saying that. The auto worker that carries a gun around. Yeah, yeah. He doesn't have any drills or anything. You're not even an automaker, but yeah. So I think that's a good place to start Jerry. So can you tell us a little bit about it, especially for people, maybe that have seen the videos or have not seen the video and have no idea what we're talking about here. Explain a little about that day and what happened and how that even came to fruition. That whole I'll call it confrontation between you and now president Joe Biden. Yeah, for sure. So first of all, I'm a mill ride by trade. So I work on I work all over the country. I just haven't did that plant that day, but I work on robots conveyors, nuclear reactors and turbines. And but for that day, we were putting in machinery for the Chrysler plant. And I was, I didn't know that Joe Biden was going to come in until about 7 o'clock that morning. That's when we have our safety talk. And then they came and said, hey, Joe Biden's going to be around ten 30. So I was working with a few apprentices and they were just doing some miscellaneous work. So I had a couple minutes to set side to myself, and I started to articulate a question that I would hopefully be able to ask the presidential candidate at the time. And I kept sending some rough drafts to my lady and I after about now ten rough drafts. I was like, I got the one that I want. So around 9 30 10 o'clock we started headed over there. And what they do is they actually tell you they say, hey, you guys need to keep working or even go see the presidential candidate. And of course, everybody's going to be like, yeah, I'm going to go see him. That's how they get people over there. You know? Neither work or not. That you double if you go and listen to Joe Biden. Right, right, right. And then there's a lot of people that like, they've never seen a news news station before or anything. There's a bunch of cameras out there and they're like, okay, we have all these shirts. And if you guys want to, one wants to wear the shirt, we'll get you behind the president of Canada, and I'll take pictures. They don't know his. They don't know his standings on anything. They just know there's a famous guy and they get to me in a picture with them. And that's how they rally back. That's correct. Give me up. So I'm over there. I'm like, all right, I just hope I get to ask you guys a question. If not, no big deal. I thought he was going to be like on a stand or something. I can give him a speech, but no, he came in there..

"Older players pretty soon Michael, that's not gonna work. You need a graph like this. Younger players rookies, second year player, guys are 45, four or 5 year veterans, guys, or 8 or 9, ten year veterans. And you can keep in place a good solid team, but if you're like this, it's going to be a major rebuild. And today with so many players around and free agency, you can not get players. You have to have relationships with agents. Look what agents can do today. They can supply players, and particularly good and they have a lot of players. If you build a great relationship with them, they can direct players to your program and particularly if you have the ability to pay. So there's a lot more planning today that goes in, particularly the financial side. And I said it before and I'll say it again. There are people that make 2020 $5 million like Michael. I don't think they're worth $25 million. I don't care what a player makes. I don't care. Hey, Jerry. Jerry, what was your top salary when you played? $275,000. Michael, I turned down the first $1 million contract. I turned it down. I said, I can't do it anymore. And the Laker owner at that time, Jack cook was furious at me. And he basically shouldn't have lied to me. He lied to me that year before about a contract. And, you know, I just, I couldn't do it, Michael. I could not do it. I can't take money for not being a 100% involved. And there's no way I could be involved a 100% at that point in time. They asked so much of you, you know, to be guarded best opposing teams, score 25 game. I couldn't score 30 a game then. A bad knee injury lead the league in scoring when I mean league in scoring leader league and assist be a leader. That's almost impossible to do, Michael, once you get to a certain age, and particularly the lack of treatment for some of the injuries that would be very minor today. You're listening to the man himself, Jerry West on showtime with Jerry. We're at the point where I'm gonna give you a lightning round. A couple more questions for you. This is I'm asking 5 names and just tell me as much as you want about this person, okay?.

He's not like, he's as much as he's an extrovert on the area he's an introvert off the earth. Very much so. So yeah, I felt fortunate that I was kind of a guy that he would make fun of me on TV sometimes while I would drop a foul ball in the press box or something and they would show it and then they got come on in that's a terrible play, or something like that. So it just felt lucky that I had a relationship with them because he was someone like I said that I looked up to since I was 8 years old. I got to tell you Ian, I don't have a lot of stories about Jerry Remy. A, I respected the hell out of him because I knew when he opened his mouth on the air. And this is the highest compliment I can give any broadcaster, whether it's a play by play or an analyst. When they open their mouth, they had something to say that would add value to my enjoyment of the broadcast. And Jerry Remy was always that as a professional. Anytime he opened his mouth and talked baseball, I was all ears because I always thought that he had insight to the game and could do it in a concise informative way that very few others in the history of the game could do. And that's one thing that I will always remember about Jerry Remy. The other thing I'll always remember is whenever he called me by name because it meant he knew who you were and I'm sure you can obviously even more much more than I can. You can relate with that. And when the guy knew who you were, it meant something that you were on his radar. Oh,.

Specials is probably less money than the one series that they put out for one ends. I mean i think. I remember a season of game of thrones was one hundred million dollars. That's a lot. Yeah that's a budget of a. They had eight seasons movie right. It had eight seasons and but it got progressively more and more. It might have been one hundred million for the first season.

I knew he was the second year player and he had a pretty good year and he was with san antonio well he was one of our Young guys that we brought in and we've had a number of players from the select team rosters who have graduated up and so watching him this past week. First of all he knows pop. Well he knows the system well and that's basically our system. He's a very tough kid. He's very competitive. And like i really. It was pretty easy. We're not we weren't looking for a starter. We weren't looking for a star. That's another thing we we initiated. It wasn't an all star team ever. It was always trying to put a team together. We're players complement one another and we had role players so while near looking at this group like who's going to be nine ten eleven twelve. They have roles jovana. All has a role. He's a rim runner. He's going to block some shots. How much he gets called on. That's pops call. John said he has a lot of confidence in them. Pretty good security in case somebody goes down or something like that so Yeah there's there's a reason for all of that. Is there another project in your future. I'm busy with the following things. I love the role as chairman of the basketball hall of fame. Because these are people. I mean the people who are coming in many of them are guys that i came up with and basketball on various levels. And it's like family. It's like a fraternity. And and i just love being a part of it. <hes> number two g. c. u. the university in phoenix. They named the business school. And my honor. I helped picked two coaches. They've ever had dan. Marlene bryce drew who's the current coach. I'm very close to the basketball program. I'll help them any way. I can and i enjoy being around young people you know. Beat in a classroom when i just popped in. I'm not teaching classes. You know what i do. At my age. I tell stories and somebody says you tell stories once and i said that's true i said i can't remember the facts but i sure can remember stories so i enjoy the connection very much in the president. Kinda leans on me. I'm always available to give them advice. and then i'm very heavily involved in real estate around the country but in particular on arizona. So that's enough. That's enough to keep me busy. It always has been. But i am someone who needs to be busy. I'm not one to step when you talk about retirement. That's not in my vocabulary. I think you'd go as long as you can as hard as you can until you can't and you'll know you'll get that proverbial tap on the shoulder you're done you're done but for now. Just keep going. Was this the most important accomplishment in your professional career. I did say this. And i'll i'll make the official again that is it's one thing to represent your city your state.

Stop it. so this guy You know we were. We were going to do a refinance in everyone had to buy in all the partners and he kinda positioned it so that if he couldn't kinda take over then people were his group was going to pull out and so i just stepped down. Never said a word about all of that like in the meeting. New nobody cares at this point because it was so long ago that was two thousand and four the same year i sold the team and So people have asked me that question about baseball. Jerry had to do all over again. Would you done anything different. And i said absolutely not. I said how could i be so smart in one sport and so dumb in another. It's only because the circumstances were different in basketball. I made something out of zero out of nothing. Because i was the first person to have been a player night in the nba but close scouting. Coaching managing did without any money to put a deal together to buy the team and building arena. So you have to be a little bit on your toes to make all those things happen in so when you're delta different set of cards a different hand like i did in baseball. I know what i was doing.

I hadn't expected so i walked in the door and essentially They fired me We basically my board and i agreed to disagree. This was the board that i very carefully nurtured and brought along as we did a flow corporate buyout of the of the agency so that all employees were stockholders Which was fine.
