"Came back down to Banff and then went home and I was like, wow, what a cool place. Brilliant people, beautiful countryside. Food was great, good beer, like everything about it I liked. Everything about Canadians I liked. And then I've watched over this, feels like almost ever since then, this like, really horrific decline for Canada that you watch from afar. It's like this slow car crash. I think there was this image of what Canada was. We're just like, in some sense, we're like America, but we don't have guns. We have social healthcare and things like this. Nice America. Yeah, it's like, everyone's happy, everything's great, everyone's very polite. And then I feel like the trucker thing really showed like, oh shit, this was all a facade in some sense. It's like, we had this vision of the politicians that we thought they were good people. And realized they're just as bad as any other country with dictators and things like that. So it really made us question us like, oh, what are we as a country? What type of people? Who do we want to be? And it just didn't feel like that was, it was a big scar, I think, on Canadians in the sense that they saw who they were deep down when the whole COVID thing happened. So that was a scary moment for me to realize, well, maybe I should be looking elsewhere. Maybe I should move somewhere else. So I think I'm probably going to be leaving Canada in not too long and just start going somewhere else and trying to find other places because, yeah, it was scary times, especially when you're there at the time. Well, that is a repeat pattern you see around the world. So when we make these blocks of shows, there's things we can talk about. I can talk about the fact the reason I've been to Argentina and Lebanon. And they both have this kind of brain drain of young people leaving because of lack of opportunity, destruction of the money, and just kind of general discontent, lack of hope. And so they leave the country, and these are the people who are meant to build the future. And when I hear you say you're thinking leaving Canada, you're obviously, we know what you've done, what you're doing work-wise, you're innovative, you're a top coder, you are like an entrepreneur. You're the kind of person that Canada should want and embrace. And you're like, I'm going to get the fuck out of it. And that's a really bad reflection on what's happening in the country. Yeah, and maybe it's becoming less and less important in the sense that so much work can be done remotely. So this idea of living somewhere, it doesn't really make sense to live in an expensive city anymore. So it makes more sense to just sell my house and go travel and work anywhere in some sense. Because my team is global, right? I have all open source contributors to Damas. And we do have one employee, but for the most part, I don't really care where they are. Like one day he's like, oh, yeah, I'm in Florida today. I'm like, cool, doesn't really matter. So yeah, it's becoming easier just to make that decision just to not be in Canada. I do wonder when the flip might come, not just for Canada, but a lot of countries. So again, referring back to these two places I've been, Lebanon, they've effectively got no government at the moment, and people are just rebuilding the country outside of government. And then in Argentina, we know that Javier Millet is leading the polls, who's a libertarian, who's got some quite radical policies. I mean, we've seen a very interesting evolution for El Salvador under Bukele. I mean, whatever you think of him, the prospects of the country have improved, the prosperity has improved. I just got sent a prospectus for these apartments that are being built in El Zonte. Beautiful beachside apartments. And relatively, it's not as cheap as I expected. It's like half a million dollars for one of these apartments, and it's like $1.2 million for like a penthouse, but it is beach-fronted. And I was thinking, well, actually, if that was Venice Beach near here, that'd be $15 million. So like, relatively, it's cheap compared to that, but that kind of development would not have happened without this journey through Bitcoin and Michael Peterson. And so you can see the prospects for a country change under the right leadership, and I know we shouldn't look to leaders to change this, but it can effectively happen. And I think one of the interesting things about Canada, I've seen a lot of these videos coming out where there was one yesterday, and VK shared of a teacher. She was saying, my parents were both public school teachers, and this is where we grew up. It was this beautiful... Have you seen this video? I don't think so. It's on mine. I retweeted it, Danny. You should watch this. There's been a few of them. But yeah, she's seen... I'll let her say it. That's the one. I'll put it here. It's from TFTC. I want you to think about what life looks like for a household of two public school teachers and two kids today. Like, what does their household look like? What does their finances look like? Because this was my parents' situation. As two public school teachers, this is where I grew up, on a lake, with a boat. I can TODR the rest, right? And she's saying her and her husband are both public school teachers, and they live in a one-bed apartment, and when it rains, there's leaks. And she's saying the boomers have taken everything from us. And so I feel like there's this bubbling resentment, which I think can invigorate some kind of revolution which is apolitical, because if you're broke and living in some shitty apartment, it doesn't matter which party you support, you recognize this as decades of theft by the boomers and the political elite. So I wonder if that might inspire change. Yeah, it's interesting. I wonder what's going to happen with this huge... Like, the boomer generation is getting older, and a lot of them are going to start... There's going to be a huge transfer of wealth between boomers to somewhere else. So I'm just curious to see how that's going to play out and what that even looks like. But yeah, they benefited from the huge economic... You know, from money printing in some sense, right? So they just rode that wave, and now... Yeah, so I don't know. We'll see how it plays out. I've considered a transfer of wealth that's happening... I actually see it happening now with Bitcoin, because what's quite interesting, if you own some Bitcoin and we have a bull run and you 5, 10x your wealth, you can say... You can have something that you want to change in your own life. Maybe it's like buy a house. I moved house in the last couple of years. That only happened because of Bitcoin, right? And so that's a transfer of wealth, because I had the Bitcoin, so I'm able to level up and get this house. And I think that might become more extreme as Bitcoin grows more, because I always feel like even though some rich people have adopted Bitcoin, they will. It's a bottom-up adoption. And so we may see this transfer of wealth as Bitcoin grows, where people who don't have much money but have a bit of Bitcoin, they level up. And as their wealth levels up, they sell a bit. They maybe get a new house. So I've got this romantic idea that we see this leveling up and transfer of wealth with Bitcoin. No, it's funny, because I have a similar story with my first house. I had all my money in one bank account. I wanted to move to another bank account to do the mortgage there. So I did a $30,000 transfer to the other bank, but they screwed up the serial numbers or something on the bank transfer, and no one would help me. So they're like, oh, yeah, your money's gone. But I was like, what? So I was like, OK, well, I have to make this down payment tomorrow. So I had to use Bitcoin to actually do it. Bitcoin is, in some sense, the reason why I own my first house. So it's things like that where people realize Bitcoin is just more reliable money for when you're like, oh, shit moments, when people try to screw you over and people are not willing to help you. I just had a friend in the bank who I had to go contact to help me out. But if I didn't have that, I'd be screwed, right? Well, it always gets me when people are like, yeah, but Bitcoin isn't really used. It doesn't really serve a purpose. We had it the other day, Orange Pill App. They're a sponsor of the football club and they're a sponsor of the podcast. And Matti, a great guy, actually, I think we're seeing him tonight. And so anyway, I sent him the invoice, and he tries to make the payment. He says, oh, there's something wrong with the payment. I think your address is wrong. And when I go, no, the address is correct. And he came back and said, is the phone number? I was like, no, it's a bucket. Can I just send you like magic into that money? I was like, yeah, bang, done. Ten minutes later, I've got it. I didn't even know that happened. Yeah, just like bang, done. But that's not the first time it happened. That happened with, what was that wallet? A Monero wallet. Cake. Yeah, cake wallet. That one was even more fucked up. So they tried to pay us. And then the bank I was with, Wise, Transfer Wise at that point. Transfer Wise, they're really invasive with this stuff. They're often like, can you show us a copy of the invoice? Here's the invoice. Can we see your contract with them? So I did. And they came back and said, we don't like this company. So we're not willing to take their money and transfer it to you. I'm like, what the fuck? Again, Bitcoin, done. And so the amount of times this happens, I'm like, are you sure Bitcoin doesn't have a purpose? I know. Even sometimes when you go to the bank nowadays, when you want to deposit money or something, they're like, where did you get this money? And it's so privacy invasive so many times. The banks are not your friends in that situation. And even in, I remember the early days, like 2013 or something, this guy, he was anonymous. He sent his email. He's like, oh, we found a vulnerability in your website. And he was from Germany or something. I'm like, well, I want to reward you for finding this vulnerability. And he just posted a Bitcoin address. And this was in 2013. I didn't know where he was from. I didn't know his name, but I was able to reward him. And that's the power of these types of protocols is that you don't, I don't even know how to do that with the existing legacy financial system. It would just be impossible, I imagine. But you just couldn't. I mean, this is how I lost my bank account. I was with the, I don't know if you've heard this, but I was with Lloyd's TSP for 25 years. Yeah, since I was like 17. Multiple bank accounts, loans, mortgages, fully paid off, never in my own overdraft, like good customer. I get a phone call one day and some young guy, she says, hi, I'm from Lloyd's Customer Care. I just want to ask you about some transactions. I'm like, sure. She's like, you sent this money on this day to here. Can I ask what it was for? And I was like, nope, none of your business. I was like, do I have to answer this? She said, no. I said, well, I'm not answering this. I said, am I under investigation? She said, no. I was like, do you suspect I've committed a crime? She was like, no, because I was like, if you have, you can go through the police. And I'm thinking, but what I really don't want to do is I'm, what was I then? 41 years old, I think I was, 42 years old. I've run three businesses. I've got two kids. I'm a grown adult. I'm happy with what I'm doing. I'm not telling some 22-year-old all my personal information. Bullshit. I get a letter like two days later saying your bank account will close in two weeks. Yeah. There's like nothing you can do about it. Nothing you can do about it. They won't, they don't have to give you a reason. They don't give you a reason. And they close your account. When my account got closed by TransferWise, that's when I moved to TransferWise. When my account got closed by them afterwards, that was because Gemini were a sponsor. They said, in their terms of services, you cannot transfer money to crypto exchanges for the purpose of buying cryptocurrencies. Fine, I'm not doing that. They're paying an invoice. No. That fucked up what it is. They froze all my money. They froze my money. I was like, well, hold on. I've got to make payroll here. I've got to pay for things. I need that money. They froze it for two weeks. There's this like obsession with control in the people in this industry. And I don't know like what that is derived from. I imagine they have all the power and they are not subject to these rules. But it feels like you're just playing this game from these people in control. And it just feels very unnatural and very uncomfortable. And I've been increasingly seeing, as banks, just a liability. Like I try to keep most of my money out of banks at this point. And so I just like run my own node, run my own Lightning node. I do most of my business out of my Lightning node. And that's just like, I don't have to worry about people freezing my funds because it's like they can't. And that's what it should be, right? So is Damas essentially on a Bitcoin standard? Yeah, Damas is. Sorry, Damas. Damas, yeah. Nostradamus. Of course, yeah. No, yeah. It's, you know, we get a lot of money from the grants. Like OpenSats has been really great and Jack's been really great. And we get paid in Bitcoin. We pay our employees in Bitcoin. I don't have any money in my bank account. It's all Bitcoin. So I'm definitely, I'm living the fiat standard. It's a little bit volatile. But the volatility doesn't bother me because I realized that it's just the right way moving forward. And so I'm just trying to embrace it and live in the future. Because I want this future to be a reality. So why not just go in all in and just live it, right? Well, that's what Max Hillebrand said to me. Because he's on a Bitcoin standard. And he said, every time there's a bull run, you regret every kind of pound or dollar that you didn't put in Bitcoin. He said, so I've just done it. And every bull run, I was right. And we can't do that yet because the businesses we run require fiat. Right, yeah. But I try not to keep in my personal account, I would never say this. It sounds so privileged. I don't keep more than 80,000 pounds in there because you're insured up to 80,000 pounds. I don't keep 80,000 pounds in there because I don't have 80,000 pounds. And if I did, I would put that in Bitcoin. Because I think it's a better place to put your money in terms of protecting your wealth. But in a business, we don't have that luxury. We have cash flow. And the cash flow requires more than 80,000 pounds. And we're always exposed. I mean, I've just, whatever I just said to you there about Metro. Right, yeah. Metro Bank in the UK, for people listening, are having to raise funds because they need to shore up their balance sheet. They've got financial issues. After TransferWise, I actually went to Metro and asked to open the bank out. And they rejected this because the company had the name, the word Bitcoin in its name. Because of what Bitcoin did limited. But we could have been with them right now. And right now, I'd be like, my funds are at risk. And I'm sure there's going to be a run on them right now. I'm sure of it of some kind. For sure. Probably. Yeah. I mean, I would be withdrawing my money. 100%. Mine's so quick now. You don't need to go down the bank, down the high street. That'll be happening. We'll have our own BTFP program soon. Don't. I hope not.

"See, I don't know if he's done things that are illegal. I think he probably has. Again, I don't like... I was just using him as an example. I don't go deep into the weeds on his case or anything. But I think there are better examples. Yeah. Listen, like part of it, the reason I brought him up is because he's rich and they want to extract wealth from him. I mean, that's definitely part of it, right? Now, if that wealth is the proceeds of crime, maybe they have a fair reason to do so. But certainly they want to get their hooks in and be able to extract wealth from him. Here we go. I don't know exactly what this is, but... This is probably 40% of the reason I moved to Romania because in Eastern Europe, none of this garbage flies. If you ever know the police and say he raped me back in 1988, they're going to say, we should have done something about it then. If you ever know the police say raped me yesterday, say, OK, if you've got physical evidence or CCTV proof, where'd it happen? OK, let's go interview him right now. And if it wasn't really right, oh, we went to the club, we got drunk, she agreed to go back to my house, we started having sex and then we carried on having sex. And then we had sex and she didn't say anything wrong. And then she texted me afterwards and I didn't text back. And now she's saying I raped her. The police would be like, OK, she's an idiot, bye. But no, not in the West. In the West, you can tell them that exact story. You're still fucked. You're fucked in the West. People say, why did you live in Romania? And I explain my five reasons. One of them is the Me Too era. They go, oh, well, you're a rapist. I say, no, I'm a fucking rapist. But I like the idea of being able to just say to do what I want. I like being free. And if you're a man living in England or Germany or America or any of the Western world right now, you've decided to live in a country where any woman, any ex, any fucking bitch who works at Gregg's who you bought a pasty from at some point in the future can destroy your life. This Me Too era bullshit has not protected women. It's just destroyed the safety of men. There's always like elements of truth in the things he says. But again, that's not what I'm referring to. None of these clips are particularly damning. No, but if anything, it's just a bit weird. Why would you go out and say that? Why are you saying- Well, he's an online hustler guy. Like he's kind of a scammer. He was totally a scammer. It's like, escape the matrix, pay me for your money. I don't really want to be the guy on this podcast defending him. Cause I think he's also like a crypto pump and dumper. So, I mean, he doesn't have his own token, but he definitely is like a heavy shit coin trader. And he teaches people to shit coin trade. Is that, maybe I have a misunderstanding. I don't know. Again, I'm just using him as an example though. I think all he did is he repackaged what Jordan Peterson had been saying for a while in a way to sell it to teenagers. Sure. That's what he did. And it's, I just don't find it interesting. I think you can, like Zuby talks about masculinity, talks about going to the gym. And he does it in a way that I think is far more inspiring than that. That is brash and arrogant. And I just, for me, I don't like it. And I know some people love take great. It's just not my, it's not my example of somebody to go to my son. Here's an inspiration for you or someone I really want as an inspiration to the boys who go to school with my daughter thinking. Cause it turns them into little shit heads. It does. What he thinks they learn from it, they don't. And they just become little misogynistic shit heads. And so I think there's just way better people who are an inspiration to people than him. My point, my point, back to my point. My point here is that if he was in England or America, he would understand the legal system a lot better and be able to more appropriately defend himself. Like we will wait now that he's got a ongoing, he's got a charge against him in Romania, right? So we will wait to see if he's convicted of that charge. And if he is convicted of that charge, then I'll be on your side of the table and say, well, he probably did it, depending on what evidence comes out during the trial. Yeah, I feel like- Right now I'm just being neutral and just not reserving judgment. Cause I like none of those clips who were particularly damning. You know that final rap in eight mile where Eminem says everything you're going to say. He'd like tells him all these he's got. And so the guy has nothing left to say. I feel like he's playing a similar strategy. He's like, he's giving you all the defenses ahead of time. Like this is what they're going to do to me. The matrix is coming after me to gaslight people into thinking he hasn't committed a crime. That's a smart strategy. That is what he's doing. Of course it's a smart strategy. I just don't find it interesting. I see Tucker Carlson interviewing him and all these other people just defending him already when there is a legal due process. I just think it's a bit crass. I think let the legal process happen and let's let a court of law decide. Do you believe in the Romanian legal process though? I've got no reason not to. Would you put your life in the hands of the Romanian legal process? I mean, I don't have- I wouldn't. I can say this. We're not Romanian. Romania is fucking corrupt as shit. But the US is corrupt as shit. They held him for 90 days without charge. Yeah, the US is corrupt as shit. The UK, like I'm in a legal situation in the UK, which is bullshit. You know what's interesting about the US is that, you know, there is a lot of corruption in the US, but our judiciary is actually working pretty well. Our judiciary, our court system is still working pretty good. I think it is. And it is like sort of the arbiter of truth. Now, is it perfect? No, and it's never been perfect, but it's working about as well as it ever worked. I've seen enough documentaries about people who've been convicted for crimes they should have done, the way the prosecutors work, the way the police have to do it. The poor, especially in the way they do plea deals, and yet all of that is true, and there's a problem. But if you are well-funded and have the right attorneys, you have the ability to defend yourself in America, and you have the right to a fair and expedient trial. But so where's Romania? I can't... There you go, 63. This is the corruption index? Perception, corruption perception. Like corruption in the public sector. So they're saying that Romania is much less corrupt than you would think? Well, 63. They're in the middle of the pack, corruption-less. Top third. Yeah. I mean, it's pretty corrupt. Yeah. Where's America on the list? We're at 24. 24, where are we, Danny? UK, 18, you're even more corrupt. And scroll up. No, less corrupt. Oh, these are per... Oh, got it, yeah, yeah, got it. It's just perceptions, but look, I don't... Again, having been in a legal process, I have very little trust in the systems anymore. Dude, yes, that's true. But your legal process seems to be... Like you guys have some weird fucking laws because you don't have free speech. You know, one of the things that bummed me out after being friends with you was realizing that the classic British humor was actually just like a reactive response to the fact that you don't have free speech. You all have to be sarcastic all the time because you have to be able to have a shield and be like, I was just taking the piss, mate. Yeah. Because you don't have free speech, which is terrible. By the way, you guys sent us Prince Harry and he was like, I don't understand America's free speech law. And I was like, I don't understand how you can be a cuck to your wife, but agree to disagree, Harry. You know what I mean? Can you take him back already? If you keep her. We don't, no, fuck that. We want him back. We want pre-Meghan Harry, that was the call, Harry. There's two issues with free speech in the UK. One, we don't have a legal protection. But we also have a coercive pressure. So I am happy, fully happy to admit this. I'm now chairman of a football club that has a lot of eyes on it. I have to think very clear, I think very carefully about some of the things I want to say in the world we're in. And I have to really think through the nuance and how I want to explain it. I was talking to Odell about this yesterday because when you're the chairman of a football club, there's a lot of eyes on you. And if you look like you've got, you know, saying anything kind of wild, anything like an Andrew Tate, they're gonna come for you. And that project's so important. So it's not that I'm censoring myself. I'm having to think through very carefully how I construct points. And the reason I said this to Odell- Yeah, because there's always a way to say what you want to say, but in a less controversial way. Yeah, and so the way that- But you are, that is a bit of self-censorship. It is, it is, it is, absolutely in the way that you, I will still make the point if I want to make it, but I will have to bring the nuance to the table to explain it in a way that doesn't scare people. Like, for example, and even in the loose example, CBDCs, it's gonna be very difficult to go, this is just government tyranny. They're just trying to steal your money and control you. I'm gonna talk through the arguments against the CBDC and show examples across the world of the negative impacts of them, rather than just having headlines. But I have to think through it very, very carefully because where we are in the UK, we are, the range of opinions is that the Overton window is very different from in the US. Like, you fucking fight and argue on extremes. We're very near the middle. And when people are outside of that, it doesn't matter left or right, you're painted as crazy. You're painted as an extremist or like I was saying to Odell, Russell Brand isn't even that far out. He has now been essentially painted as a right-wing extremist in the UK. Russell Brand. Oh yeah. Yeah, to me, he's a hippie. And so, and the reason I care about this is I want people to have freedom money in the UK. I want people to have more freedom. So I'm trying to think, how the fuck do I communicate this in the way so I don't sound like, you know my pin tweet? Right, yeah. Yeah, I don't want them to think I'm Alex Jones. Of course, yeah. So it's a hard job. And that's why it's on the show sometimes, people listen and they're like, usually Americans thinking, fucking Pete is such a cuck. It's like, no, I'm trying to balance two audiences here. I'm trying to provide good content for the American audience, but also I have a British audience. I also want them to like, I want them to consider what I'm saying and take it seriously. So I'm trying to walk between the two people on the pin tweet. By the way, you know. It's fucking hard. You guys are more cucked than we are, but it's not like we're not cucked. I mean, I know that there are certain things that I could say that would put me on a list. I know that there are certain things I could say that would get me in massive amounts of social, whatever, like we don't, we have less and less free speech in America than ever before, but we still have it. We still have it, thank God. And like, if it went to the court system and I had to be held to the, my feet held to the fire for something I said, I feel confident that I would win, you know? Well, Elon Musk called some guy a pedo and got away with it. Yeah, the Thailand guy, yeah. The submarine guy. Submarine guy. No, it was the, they were in a cave. Yeah, the submarine guy. Yeah, he kind of shot from the hip on that one, you know what I mean? But he got away with it. Free speech protection. We can say whatever we want in America. Yeah, and that's- Up to a point, you can't say like extremely, you can't say specifically violent things about somebody. You can't incite violence. You can't incite violence, that one's, that's tricky. You know what I mean? They said Trump incited violence and like did he, did not, did Alex Jones incite violence? Like, I don't know. Like these are very gray area issues, right? Yeah, it's the shouting fire in a cinema thing. Yeah, my point is though, okay, this is like dissidents versus reformers, right? If you are going to be a dissident, you're gonna leave America or you're gonna leave England and you're gonna go to whatever you think are greener pastures, right? And who's to say that these pastures are actually gonna be greener and you don't get caught up in whatever legal quagmire over there. And at the same time, you've abandoned the place where you actually did have the ability to fight. Like I couldn't go to England and do what you're gonna do. You're gonna be Mr. Bedford, you know, boy who grew up in Bedford, who's got the local football club and like, you know, hey, it's me, Pete. Sometimes I say the wrong thing. I put my foot in my mouth, whatever. And you know how to talk to your people. If I went over there, they'd all just view me as the biggest arrogant douchebag in the world, kind of like they view me in America. But the thing is like in America, I'm better at talking to Americans because I know how to operate in our system. I know our cultural values, I know how to think. If I went to El Salvador, I'm gonna sit on the beach and eat pupusas and go surfing and basically do nothing for anyone. I'm not gonna help advance Bitcoin forward, right? I have to stay here because I know the rules here and America is also a beautiful place that's worth fighting for. Where else are you gonna go? Well, exit is retirement, I think. Yeah, exit is just giving up. And like, you know, back to the point we were making earlier about, you know, I was saying that you're doing a uniquely British thing with the Bedford football club and the pub. I think the uniquely American thing is to hold America's feet to the fire about its founding documents. Speak truth to power, hold the feet to the fire. Like if you go back to, I was thinking about the civil rights movement the other day and how Martin Luther King Jr. won and was so effective and they killed him for it, right? That's obvious. I mean, that was terrible, but he won, he fucking won. And the reason he won is because he said to America, you know, he used voice. At the time there was this, you know, idea of exit which was called the back to Africa movement. I don't know if you've ever heard of this in history. Don't know anything about that. There were a bunch of black separationists who wanted to go back to Africa and start their own, you know, community. And some of them did, but it was not as effective I think in messaging to the, you know, black Americans because black Americans have struggled and fought and toiled and bled and almost more than anybody else in America, I think definitely probably more than anybody else, maybe the native Americans for, you know, America. So they deserve to be full owners of the society. And that was Martin Luther King Jr.'s message. And he said, listen, America, you're the one who wrote down on paper that all men are created equal, okay? And all I am asking is for you to make good on your word. And that's why he fucking won. Because that's a powerful argument. It's powerful for everyone. It's powerful for the white people who are hearing it. It's powerful for the black people who know what they went through to get there. It's powerful. Saying, I'm gonna take my ball and go home. First of all, you're doing two things. Like you're not reaping the rewards of all the struggle that you and your people went through. And you're giving the racist white people what they fucking want anyway. And fuck them, right? So it's like, if you're gonna have a Bitcoin social movement, it has to be unique to your specific region. And who's better to do it than you, the person who this is your ancestral homeland, you know? Well, this is why I fucking love Bitcoin Park, right? I've gone down there multiple times now. Harry, Rod and Odell are like busting their balls to make this work, right? We know it's a lot of work. Like when you talk to them, you just get them on their own and have a chat. They're working so hard to make it a thing, but it's working. We've got hundreds of people here this week. They've got 40 events across the year. They've got Bitcoiners coming in from all over to come and get together. And the great thing about what they're doing is, everybody in that room can go back and go, holy shit, the most important people are the people not in Nashville. They're the ones who go back to Atlanta, Georgia or fucking Cleveland, Ohio, or fuck knows where. And they go back and go, right, I'm gonna do my version of this. And their version might just be a meetup that is 10 people, then 30 people, then 40, then 50, and then they might buy a football club or do something. Like it's Michael Peterson in El Salvador, who basically one day got contacted by somebody and said, I've got some Bitcoin, what can you do with it? And through a series of events, the president made Bitcoin legal tender. Like all these hard projects that are now delivering around the world. Like so I, Odell, Harry, Rod, Michael Peterson, the guys in Austin, the people in Berlin, all these people just going out and then doing these projects are so fucking important. This is one of the most beautiful things about America is that we can both vote with our feet and use our voice politically to change things. So like we have four established citadels in America. It's Austin, Nashville, Miami, and Wyoming. Those are the four American citadels. And those, what is an American citadel? It's basically a place where Bitcoiners have gotten together. They're forming community. They're starting to talk to the local politicians. They're starting to talk to the local ranchers. They're talking to the local people. They're building webs of trust amongst the people in their town. They're taking real ownership of the place they live and they're being civic organizers. And all of that sounds, I don't know, like something your grandfather would have done. That's like, it's a very old idea. Like the fact that none of us belong to any community organizations. Like I probably will sign up as a member of Bitcoin Park when I go tomorrow or later today, just because I want to be a part of that civic community, even though I don't live here in Tennessee. Well, you want it to work. I want it to fucking work. I support them. And now that I've said it on the podcast, I actually have to do it. So I'm holding my feet to the fire in that way. But to me, it's like, when I thought to myself, I don't belong to any community organizations. I don't really know my neighbors. I don't really give a shit. I don't care about the place I live. That's kind of a problem for me, right? And so I'm thinking about, gotta wait till the next bull run because we're poor right now. But when the next bull run comes, I'm going to move to one of the American citadels. Okay, well, I want to come back to that. The only thing I wanted to add to that, yes, you've got those four citadels, but actually you've got these nodes all around the world. You can hop to any of those. You can hop to El Zonte, El Salvador. You can come to Bedford, and it's happening. People are coming. You can go to Lisbon. You can go to Indonesia. Pub Key in New York. Pub Key in New York. These things are springing up everywhere. And you go to, when I was in New York last time with you guys, I just went back and forth from the hotel to Pub Key, the hotel to Pub Key. We're in New York City. We're in Manhattan. I didn't give a shit. I just went to Pub Key, and I ate the bar food, and the bar food was fucking amazing. I basically stayed at Pub Key the whole time because my people, my diaspora, my tribe, they were at Pub Key. And that's all I actually care about, is my people. Well, because you have that thing, right? Ignoring the guy in the bar that my son stepped in front of, everywhere you go, people are cool. Well, there were 160 people in that bar, and only one guy had a real problem with you. You know, but everywhere you go, people are cool. And you know, when you get there, there's a certain number of, there's certain pillars that you're gonna line up on, you're gonna line up on, and you're gonna share jokes that you're gonna get, and you're gonna share stories you're gonna get, and you've got this same mission. And so whether you go to Pub Key, or you go to Nashville or El Zonte, it's like that cheers, river cheers. Yeah, where everybody knows you. Yeah, it's that, but it's that globally that's happening. Honestly, I'm fucking here for it. I love it so much. It's so fucking exciting. And like, in a certain way, have you ever heard this idea that the Citadel is you, and that it emanates out from you? Or you could think about yourself being like a conduit. Like essentially, like Bitcoin is like this alien substrate, right? And we all like touched it. And then we became Bitcoin. We became like infected with Bitcoin. And then we'd go around like infecting the rest of the world with Bitcoin, like basically sharing the gospel, like spreading the good news of Bitcoin. We're Bitcoin missionaries, you know? We probably have that at some point. Two guys turning up in your door with like, cheap suits and ties and rucksacks. People say this all the time about Bitcoin that like, you know, oh, I hate Bitcoin because it's religious and those maxis, they're so religious. And you know, they're so Orthodox and they have all these social adherence. Like they only eat meat and they sun their balls and they do this and they do that, right? But really what we are is a community organization. We're like a large global community organization that has all these different pockets, these nodes, these Citadels, whatever you want to call them. And that's what's really going on here is like, we're a bunch of people who are using Bitcoin as a, you know, Bitcoin, both a progressive and restorative technology to restore social cohesion and civic responsibility to America and the world. I fucking love that. Dude, that is so boring. You know what's amazing about Bitcoin is that is so boring and grandmotherly, you know? All of Bitcoin is like boring grandmother advice. Like have a family, have strong principles, stand up for what you believe in, have a garden, eat real foods. You know what I mean? Get to know your neighbors, join a community organization. This is what your grandmother would have told you. This is what Bitcoiners are telling you. And allegedly it's like radical in today's world. There's nothing radical about it. So in the next bull run, you're going to move to Bedford. And not Bedford. I like free speech too much. Did you see Rob Hamilton's chart yesterday? No, which one? Oh my God, this is brilliant. I love Rob by the way. This troll is fucking brilliant. He trolled Austin.

"We were worried about going into the game so nausea low. Here that you high so derwin was down in that outside. Linebacker nicole kind of look Instill great extremely high. So yeah i think it was a. We wanted as more of a true. What will we hope to see him. In kinda roy. Yeah withdrew sarah still in the game but adapted in still had not a great game. He didn't have like a lot of huge big toys. But i still believe that quarterback siham don't wanna throw him. I mean clearly. They don't live from his last game that we saw was that dak prescott did not throw a touchdown. Now i mean we. Vince is clearly doing something right. I know he gets a lot of shades for our run. Only less lesson. Do look what look what you did. Last game like threw for four hundred yards. The ball fifty they. They weren't like our defenses that strong. That's gonna he always coach. Always put the top on the top receivers on coverage right. They put the job on the coverage but unfortunately they were able to run. That's i think we just as a as a fan base. You need to get more used to it. I think the cover three. You have one high save these that means you have another guy in the box so you take away the run. So what teams do they throw the ball a lot live opposite now. We have to is is less likely that they're going to see that and say. Hey we should have numbers those run. So it's just we're still adjusting to getting used. Do we agree. We heard his post-game. He knows that they did not do good. Against iran took some chances on some slant stuff they got taken advantage of. We got exploit in a little bit. We had some guys out. Just john is a big hit so we do need to do better absolutely but i think as a whole we need it used to seeing more rush russia gems as defense compared with the last couple of years one. It's all about the you know it's the crazy thing is that our offense wasn't able to put up the points. They showed of assamese to change that. That is the one thing that is the is. The defense keeps playing the way they're ply took twenty twenty points. That's a winning win. Now you have to win you keep team to twenty points or less. You have to win all right absolutely and like we said the very very beginning of the season when we looked at the schedule you look at who were playing these first six weeks you come out of their five hundred or you're in good shape 'cause our record during the reform through with yar that the so that sucks yes should have won that he had. That's hard we should have won the amount of time. I got up and celebrated and turned around high-fiving people and then i miss cowboy fan. I could be like dirty dancing me up with full. The by la dirty little cowboy fan like defying. You got over there. But i that guy was okay. Because he had it was like he brought a shield. He brought his twelve month old son. Whatever the game currently all whatever we wanted to turn around and be like. I can't hold his baby yet. Dip over the you one step removed. Yeah i mean there was a tweet came up. Recently that michael peterson put out the. Nfl's top ten evans's my yardage with the points per game. Shockingly the raiders are at the top. I can't believe that the raiders are averaged eight yards game weeks about this. Yeah that's that's up but let's see one two three four five six down is the los angeles chargers at four hundred thirty Or excuse me four sixteen but we've only put up eighteen and a half and a half hour game that's our average. Yeah everyone else everyone else. Here's well above. Twenty points out has thirty four. And they're like five spots below us. Yeah so that is the amp as it is not having these weird penalties. It's getting the ball in the end zone. You know herber started off with a foreigner. Three interceptions for interceptions reenters substituted and flag. That's not great man. We're selling these games so shows you. How strong are offenses that he's doing that. We're still in the game. Usually we'd have turnover. The game was over. We right on your down by seven week. You never catch up different thing. Seeing him in person just throw wherever he wanted. I feel he's better passer. When he's on the run like when he's rambling bootleg all day long. Go do whatever you want runaround. Because he gets more accurate when he's on visiting possible. Zoos accurate news in pockets. Decide but it was pretty crazy. Our offense was strong. You could just see. It just could not get that. In averaging over four hundred yard the game in offense phrases problem was like once we get in the red zone. It's either going to get turned over as we've seen these two games just these two games that we've seen it's either gotten turned over or Penalties have negated the scores. And we just haven't been able to put those points. These are things that can be fixed absolutely effects. yeah. I mean like we have. Oh my god. Is the boat shipping new talent. It's not a lack of inadequate scheme. It's nothing like that. It's just cleaning crap up and going and this may go back to the idea that not playing the preseason. There's a little bit. We took the health advantage. Which we have still going gave up some of the sloppiness that you get out of your way in the preseason right that could be the shameless deposited take is we're getting some that sloppiness out of the way here early and were still healthy now through two games so let's go now gotten out of our way. That's your normal preseason snaps. go Better i think that was one of the interesting takes. I mean we. We had the the duggan's dad pick us up after we got home from the bus and one of the things that he said that i did kind of find interesting. Was that in regards to adding the preseason coach. Coaching senior Is that. it's not so much about like you know not getting guys used to getting banged up and football and stuff like that. It's not that timing getting that timing because you can time all you want in practice but is actually getting out of the game and getting that timing down when you have a defender that's trying to get achy is is buying saw. The person yeah. I thought that was kind of interesting. So i mean there's obviously a give and take with not playing the preseason. I thought that was an interesting. Take from Coach senior looking over at some of the players. We did see. Kenneth murray go down and it scared the hell out of us. It was so weird being in person like down down down tiles like popper. We need doctors yard about it. We got poverty before anyone in the city. Yeah yeah it was a notification. Durham our canterbury's out before we even came back from the the commercial break right as we category went down scared us for hossack humane back again and austin took a hit head. Yeah that's scared us as well because his health part just fell out of his mouth about when he got hurt at the end of the last season to remember he got pop. Pretty hard there so i don't want any concussion. What a catch all the that was the one. Hold onto the ball we. We're so lucky to have him incredibly so those those are the two that we saw him person that was just like oh holy cow but apparently joey bosa also got kind of little rolled up onto something apparently from fernando ramirez Chargers ed rusher. Joey bosa says about his leg being wrapped up after the game I rolled my ankle is feeling a bit sore. Nothing serious. we didn't need that turned eight. That was an injured. It's one of those things in football. Everyone gets hurt injured. You're out you're out for a while. But everyone has to play her young faculty dean games. Just wish joy. What got to the quarterback a little bit more but they weren't really throwing the problem the more they weren't in obvious passing situations where you can go back and go. What part of. What makes joey so good against iran is. He doesn't just fly field. He's making that read that first two steps and then goes he didn't have a lot of clear goes and long long yard situations where you'd a. Yeah he kinda got like an on one of those sacks. Yeah that was hillary endure wondering were quite an for. He got his hand on dax. We can get the ball out..

"Us. It's been a crazy week Lot of news going on we got things started with a bang on monday with this guest sitting here in the studio with me as well. Michael peterson the owner of power to play sports. Also the host of the power trip that you can hear every single day from eleven twelve here on thirteen. Ten k of k michael. How are you good morning. Welcome welcome to you feeling good. I'm feeling great football. I want to thank ryan to ryan producer on the other side of the big board. One of several first class. Dude shows up every day he would start on my my team and he not have to worry about your sports team alert day. Showing up is half the battle. So i'm all in with ryan. Thank you ryan. There's no thanks for jordan. Obviously some news. have you recovered from the craziness. That happened over. Yeah obviously this past weekend. We were first time in my life. I've ever gone viral and people reaching out but overall the feedback was overwhelmingly positive that we chose to make light not make light make aware of the trend of you sports and how volatile it is and i found out on tuesday and wednesday after we posted on altercation at power to play sports. That club that an owner of a facility in wisconsin and chicago went through the same stuff this week and they jumped on board to what we are now spearheading around the country accountability. Coalition sportsmanship accountability coalition. That is now Starting out self reporting for facilities around the country to identify situations that create physical harm an unsafe environment news sports and that is being reported. And now we have now. We have a resource to hold people accountable. Well and that's a little different than what you normally see. Could something like this happens. A lot of you know facility owners. I would have to imagine it'd be like okay. That's bad pr. If i put this out there But now the the shift. What you're doing is shifting the attention onto both these club organizations the the the the actual teams and the parents as well so i think bringing to light in. This manner is an interesting Interesting way to go about. It wasn't even a second thought. It's like oh you don't wanna share it because it brings negative no. It brings positive light the fact that we came out immediately and said this happened. This is wrong and we're going to do something about it right because we've been looking outside around the country and saint god. Did you see what happened in new york. See what happen in down in denver with the baseball little league last year. That just was not and i said to our staff. It's only a matter of time before before somebody in our facility acts this way so when we put it out there we were doing the right thing by saying it happened. We're taking accountability. When you ignore it. Tanner then you become part of the problem with. Michael peterson owner.

If the verdict didn't go the way she anticipated was any of that appropriate. No it was completely inappropriate. Let me say this. I'm a great supporter of the police. Officers they do so much to keep us safe. In this case i thought the trial was. Well run the judge was fair I went over the instructions with my daughter who's one of the finest defense lawyers in the country. She's probably defended thirty five trials in federal court criminal trials and we both agreed that the charge under the law of minnesota. The charges were or fair. Were good charges. They were not overcharged of perfectly constructed charges. And the evidence was there. You do not need The act to be the only 'cause all act must do as substantial factor. If you're going to salt somebody with the depraved mind and he happens to die. You own that death. That is too bad so the verdict was fair. I thought the judge was fair. Now step in and it is important part of public proceedings that we all look at them and have an assurance that their fair. Now there's only a couple of people that could mess that up and then you just name them. Joe biden and maxine waters maxine waters comments or incendiary cropper and all they did was take a trial that was perfectly fair and render in the minds of some sense of unfairness. It is a wrong thing for her to do. That is absolutely terrible for. She knew what she was doing. She was trying to influence the jury. You cannot try to influence the jury in essence. She was threatening that. The whole town of minnesota minneapolis was go up in flames. The jury didn't do this job by his comments or also the not quite as incendiary but they're highly improper. So now what's happened now derek. Chauvin is given a new lease on life. He at least has an an appeal. I think he'll Is correct that Not i mean if he would have granted the motion for mistrial. I mean all hell with a broken lucien. Unfortunately justice is not always blind. He's looked into the under the blinders there and seeing that he doesn't want the city's book flames. If a terrible sickening thing. I do this now. Chauvin has an appeal issue The evidence is so strong. It's probably not gonna make a difference But nonetheless she couldn't have done a worst thing on this thing and i feel bad for everyone on this. It's it ruins what should have been an ideal preceding. I don't like to see a police officer convicted but in this case i think he should have been. I hate to say very very very paints me but you cannot do that as a police. She can't step over the line and harm somebody just because you wanna have a good smart And you don't like somebody so he. He went too far and he unfortunately paid the price. George floyd with a lived. Okay he would have been guilty with the salt that in a few days in jail. Maybe maybe maybe not even that. But he he he. He helped he contributed may be only partially but he contributed to his death. So those are the tough beans and stuff in a police officer. I've just had that conversation yesterday. You couldn't pay me enough to be a member of law enforcement a judge or a teacher rewarding career certainly but under the media microscope particularly law enforcement far too often. But i want to get back to something that you said talking about the very real concerns as we saw the summer of violent protests and democrats largely turning a blind eye to those protests in which property and businesses and lives were destroyed Owned by people that had nothing to do with the basis of the protests. So are we perilously close to seeing the rule of law denigrating into mob rule across the country. Absolutely absolutely embiid. Founding fathers said that in a democracy you're gonna always flirt with my crecy with sectionalism but the remedy for was the free press now. Unfortunately when we have this model and started intentionally by black lives matters and other groups is not all spontaneous. Combustion out there. This summer The the the riots. Yet the media actually approves of it on cnn and msnbc or at all these commentators say of violence like duct said violence is the language of the unheard. Come on now The new york times after the riot in On january they chided people who were pointing to the terrible riots during the summer by comparison they said oh. You can't compare these. Racial justice protests. Call them purchase grace addressed protest with this anti-democratic right. Well i'm sorry those were not protests those were full-fledged rights and they were just ahead every bit of intent in there is the intent. We are now claiming that officer. Chauvin had people intentionally did this stuff. That's not you know. These are not mindless people's they're not darts in tests there are people that know exactly what they're doing and we are now just defined violence. We're justifying riots. Were justifying extortion. If we don't get our way we're gonna burn down now. The terrible thing about this as you point out is the real victims of this are not anybody. He considered to cause any of this issues. They're not burning down the source of rich white. People are bring down. Jeff bezos is house or or or bill gates burning down people who have put sweat into those businesses in oakland where i am open california Mike my comment is if you're an insurer. Are you ever been insurer a business in downtown oakland again. If you do you're going to charge. Triple do premium now. Is that good for hardworking. Minorities who wanna make Get ahead in life. No it's terrible and it's not good for anyone and it's not good to see your town crash. It's not see your favorite restaurants go and the taxes you know. What kind of taxes are needed to to to rebuild public aspect. That is so all none of this makes any sense and we need a media. That's that stands up and says something and we need politicians who say something. And i'm very disappointed in president. He's the person that should command the respect of his side of the aisle. And this is when you need leadership at least president clinton back in the day could say sister souljah and it was very effective and and it had a a a beneficial effect on the Citizenry but no but no not not.

But let's jump right into these things you've got some Some new information about some occupancies in the region is that right. Yeah for the hotel sector and you know of course. The hotel industry has been really devastated by the covid. Pandemic right if you look back He's remember a year ago march in twenty twenty the statewide hotel. Occupancy was only thirty eight point eight percent compared to over sixty nine percent for the year prior so it's just been really devastating for four hotels That have not been able to sell them. A closed entirely for period of months and and others are are Greatly reduced in terms of their operating ability. But there is some sign of improvement The colorado hotel lodging association every month puts out the rocky mountain lodge and report and there are some signs of recovery out there in the in the market The statewide number For example climbed up to fifty one point three percent in march again. That's a big improvement over a year ago when it was you know about almost thirty nine percent and we're seeing Some some Upticks in different in different cities in in greeley right now The city has an occupancy rate of fifty eight point five a little bit better in loveland at fifty nine and Little little worse in fort collins at at forty nine and and Left in In boulder and That's just park Still not not doing very well at Just less than thirty eight percent occupied so I know some some fines of of improvements but nothing It's not definitely not a full recovery yet and probably won't be for for some time. Is there a rhyme or reason as to with with specific cities as to why the the occupancies doing better that surprises me about estes. Park s spark.

"Can we put you on. Hold can you stick with me all right to help you thanks. So we've got a caller on the line here. I believe this is kayla from colorado springs. Kayla thanks for joining us. Hi good morning all right so i know. We talked a little bit earlier on the phone. You've heard a little bit of what michael peterson. The power to play his head to say But what would you like to say. Well i think it's unfortunate michael I do know that this this dead kind of start on saturday and let me let me back up a minute. I don't condone anything. That happens one way or the other. We got a bigger. If anybody condones what took place on sunday absolutely That being said we're not going to get into the dramatics of it because again that is with the police and that's where it should lie As far as things that took place as far as between the teams there was a little bit of of discord on saturday. But this is all. I mean they do also want to point out the these teams they live at howard a play. They practice there and so forth. We have not. This wasn't our first time being howard place. We've been there for. Actually you know had kiddos played there for years with various teams and this is not something new. We see this. Every time we come to power to play Not once have. We been talked to about the events of saturday. I know that the number the number was given and michael with asked to call which he did not do. I have read correspondence from michael stating that. We only paid a certain amount of a tournaments. The and this is what comes when people of low economic class don't pay the full fee and and have it all in text message. Okay that's serious stuff that you're talking about right now. It is and i have everything we need to prove it but we have not one been talked to about what happens I know that. Kenny has Graciously offered to talk on the phone and not via text Because it is an incident that we felt like needed to be talked about Again he was blocked in every way shape and form and that was clear in an emailed. Michael sent to everybody and then he went on a you know social media rampage. You know i appreciate. I appreciate you calling in and letting it.

"Calls again on ten seventeen. Welcome back no co now. Live from the cushions specialist studios. Thanks for being with us on this monday. Haveus lee The power trip follows us every single day every single weekday but there was an event that kind of caught my eye over the weekend. That happened power to play. Facilities was talking obviously like we had talked about my My girlfriend had been working there at the time. She had notified me of an event that had taken place a. I don't know scuffle how the that took place What were you wanna use there But wanted to bring on. Michael peterson power to play sports to discuss this a little bit further. Michael thanks for joining me this morning. Michael michael peterson are you there. I am now. We're having a little problem with the phone. Are you guys hear me. Okay yeah we can hear you now. We can hear you now. Thanks for joining me this morning. Obviously my goal. You've been running an event center for quite some time. These things happen but you always hate when they do. Yeah and it hasn't happened probably three and a half years at our facility but there was I'm you know there's a pending police investigations. So i wanna be respectful of that. But i can talk in general of what transpired and and it's just appalling that this type of stuff happens but if we don't do anything as an institution we've become part of the problem discern. That's not gonna happen. We're holding people accountable. Let's talk a little bit about it. Like i was talking about. My my girlfriend was working. The event got a text from her about what it kind of happened. So these two teams from my understanding had played the day before things had gotten a little chippy. Then but things just boiled over on on sunday am i to understand was was this. Jv level girls basketball game. Believe it or not. It was easy girls that asked if all level game championship game. You're correct there. Were issues on saturday. We have voted the team on saturday immediately based on our standards but we tried to talk them off the ledge. They weren't having it. And unfortunately i'm not gonna even give them credit mentioning their name or individuals. But you're gonna go on to power trips facebook or my personal face. The videos of what went down of a salting a minor. A mother came out of the stands went after the opposing players. There's vulgarity and file language impersonal threats against email management and the staff power to play handled it amazingly the good thing is every inch of our facility with the exception of the restrooms is livestreamed and we have recordings and have been through it up and down and they are one hundred percent responsible for what transpired the most disheartening. Part of it is their response. Was they were justified. Because of the officiating in their minds it was all because of the officiating those world if you have a caller to that doesn't go their way once we have the professional athletes athletes back on the court. It's going to be a free for all for each other at at athletic events. So obviously this is. We've talked about it a number of time times michael win you talk about the environment around youth sports as well but again this. This was a yes. It was a championship game. It tournament i get the passions can get there but for all. I mean. This was an exhibition. Came right the record with anything like that so want to be clear about that as well. Michael may have rubbed some people the wrong way with that facebook post. I mean you lay it all out there saying that they should never be allowed an youth sporting event. Ever again stand by that. Why is it that you feel like going directly at this is the best way to do it. You know what. I don't know if it is but i do know this in our society. This happens all over and we even have other things going on and currently northern colorado southern colorado where things happen and they sweep it underneath the rug because they're afraid of things that happen in their facility and if it happens in your facility it is not your fault as long as you hold people accountable. But what transpires is in the club world. Money is such a driving force that very few of these institutions will ever hold anybody accountable because they believe while i won't get their money or sophomore in high school as a parent and it club director. You have a responsibility to no matter what happens to not physically and verbally assault an opponent. That's it and if you don't like what's being posted after it happens then trust us do it. Here's the good thing about this. This was a recruiting event for colleges around the region and every single one of those colleges gets this information and unfortunately based on parents conduct and the club director and the coach. None of those kids will probably ever see an opportunity to be recruited the perpetrators the ones that didn't do anything they should continue to be able to play. But hopefully they'll go find someplace else until i talk with. Michael peterson owner of power to play sports. So i gathered all the information and talking with everybody there. Obviously we talked about in ongoing police Investigation beta this matter with all that being said there was nothing in your mind or nothing that has come about that would have sparked or justified the response from the people involved with the with the solta that that happened on sunday short of felony activity of murder or assault. What would justify any sporting event a person being upset about a call about a technical foul or any actions on officials that would justify physical assault towards another human being to your to your understanding. Michael there is nothing else. There was no nothing else going on. This was directed because of a missed. Call or something along those lines. Well it was a mess. Cau- and i can only go by what they're club. Director sent us in an email and not one word was we were wrong. we were. This was out of line. It was immediately justified because of officials. Not just because of this calls. They mentioned specifically. They gave one of our girls a technical foul without a warning. And then the second thing was they had mentioned that the scores table gave the opposing. Team's two-point extra. So i guess two points and a technical foul was their standard. And if you watch the video there is a woman in a white jumpsuit. That literally takes fifty feet walking and everybody in their party sat and watched and encourage this enough activity to happen or they wanted to cross and she literally the.

Welcome in wednesday morning rolling right now. that was a that may have been the fastest hour in the history of hours. Maybe ever probably was ryan kelly during the production work. I am tanner schwinn. Thanks for being with us here on co now. We are live from the auto collision specialists studios. Look if you if. You're still watching sports like i do. I still jump on there and watch this. Great debate had has been raging of as soon as a political statement is made by anybody in a professional sporty. They're just like dope. I'm done with it. I'm done with it or they go. Sports go people talking more about it. Let's let's get politics and personal matters involved in every aspect of life so there's no escape from reality ever. I clearly disagree with that. But that's our accessories with a flair and harris poll. Questions do you still enjoy watching sports or has political involvement. Ruin them for you. And so far i think the majority of people still saying it's still sitting right around sixty seven Percent there that Saying that they still do. Enjoy him when when this happened with the nba. And they just kinda quit doing their job because they felt like they needed to bring light to something. That's what their way. And i was one of the people that i had to take a break from it. I had to not watch it sucked because it was right when we were getting sports back. And i'm a. I'm a sports guy. I do enjoy watching sports. That is a relatively big aspect of my life. That's why i got started in here with k. Escape and i hated that. But i was so irritated. Did they just quit their jobs. They quit doing their jobs because they felt there was a wrong in the world. If i just quit doing my job for every wrong that i felt was going on in this world. I wouldn't be here tomorrow and you would have a new host on monday. But that's not how it works out. Works in the real world and i started as feel like these athletes. St some athletes and some organizations. Some owners are so out of touch with the the average person and let me be clear about this too. There is not a damn thing wrong with being an average person. But they're so out of touch that they start to try and make these statements and do this and that and it just looks terrible. So i did. I didn't watch Nba for for about a month. I think is what i went when i started feeling myself. Missing it and started to step aside and say you know. Let's look at this look at your beliefs personally. My belief is a person. Let's look at what they did. Let's look where it lines up. And i still couldn't find an agreement. I couldn't find a way that i could say. Yeah i could see myself doing that. I respect their varying opinions. But just to quit on your job. It's not okay with me. But i continue to look and i look at it now as a source of entertainment there are actors that i think our complete morons just eighty eight that i still enjoy their work and it's entertainment. They're good at their job and they're doing their job tone out. I can sit here and disagree with these athletes or these these actors and actresses hugging completely disagree with them but at the end of the day. If they're doing their job and they're doing a good job and i. It's it's what i would like to watch then okay. I'm fine with it. I don't have a problem with people. Voicing their opinion i have a problem with people voicing uneducated opinions that then can push a whole group of people into doing or thinking something that is just flat out wrong so this all ties back to me saying people generally are stupid just as general and i know that may rub people the wrong way. But it's it's the facts we open. Our mails hell. I'm guilty of it. We open our mouths on subjects that we don't understand just because we went our opinion to be heard. We talk more than we listen. And i think this is where we're seeing professional. Sports goto is now. We have politics involved in everything and actually a great point made by one of my coworkers here this morning. We've got the mlb pulling out of georgia point the all star game georgia because of some voting laws but then we've got the olympics being held in china. You think that china doesn't have some issues that the americans would disagree with the. It's a double standard. And it's it's a little ridiculous to be quite frank to let politics seep into everything that we do is not healthy first of all and secondly gives the people in those political parties and those political positions way more power than they need to have so. I know it's a it's a big topic and we're talking about professional sports but with things like this going on it does sync over. Got a text here. On a chautauqua girl texan nine. Seven zero four seven eight one three zero one nine seven zero four seven eight one three zero one hell. The entire power trip is based on stupid people and us making awareness. You're on don't do my guys. Michael peterson and david. That that's an entertaining show by the way. Thanks thanks for texture for bring back there next. We're bringing me back down. Because i was just getting up on the soapbox it's just frustrating because it's frustrating on both sides you have people like you know when the pandemic is going on is no sports balls till the world opens backup. It's like well that's part of opening back up but then you have people are like i don't even care if they play. I just want to hear what they're talking about. Stick politics because we've got people athletes that are not educated in this field talking about it. I try i try and be the person that when somebody asked me something if i don't know about it i'm not gonna talk about it. I'm going to tell you. Hey here's what i've heard but what i. What am i missing listening to responses like that is how we grow. That's how we become more aware of more aware society we have Conversations as set of murders. We have these conversations instead of knee jerk. Reactions still want professional sports. But do i follow them as closely off the court as i would a liked or as like i'd like to be no with that segue. Let's get into the sports world and let's talk about some of the scores that took place last night. What they did on the core. Let's start first with the denver nuggets one thirty four one. Nineteen they beat up on the lowly detroit pistons. This team is This denver nuggets team. It's just something special man and last night. They got their fearless leader back. I mean he was never gone but he had dominated a lot of the headline so far but nicole yokich twenty seven points eleven assists eight rebounds michael porter jr. twenty five points seven rebounds. We'll born twenty four points. Six rebounds fours. Aaron gordon nine points but four rebounds three assists and monte morris without jamal murray on the court last night ten points. Four sist- two rebounds when this team can beat you and put one hundred and thirty four points without jamal. Murray on the court come on now. It's just getting ridiculous. So the nuggets move thirty two and eighteen on the arab.

Colorado and miles blunt heart and headline says it all despite recent doubt and that's very tragic and very sad. You heard about this in our news this morning as well but for collins is bucking a state wide trend of rising pedestrian fatalities. Now forty year old man. According to miles blood hearts fort collins colorado and once again was fatally struck by a pickup truck while crossing college avenue. Just south of prospect about seven forty in the evening on january fifteenth. Police have said the man was not using a crosswalk when he ran into the road and that the driver of the truck had a green light tragic all the way around right. The number of pedestrians killed annually. On colorado's roadways has risen. Eighty nine percents between two thousand nine and two thousand eighteen far greater than the national increase of fifty five percent during that same time this according to analysis by aaa colorado in two thousand nine and two thousand ten. There were forty seven and thirty six pedestrian deaths respectively across colorado in two thousand seventeen and twenty eighteen. The numbers were actually ninety. Two and eighty nine. What's causing it well. The national surge apparently can be traced to several factors including conditions similar to for collins's recent pedestrian fatality. Virtually all of the increase in the number of pedestrian fatality since two thousand sixteen involved crashes after dark with crashes that happened in the early evening on weekdays accounting for more than half of that increase while ninety percent occurred outside of cross. Rock the walks and on urban arterial roads such as a college avenue.

Nobody seems to know and that is also why impeachment should die in the house. Mcconnell said on wednesday. No there's not going to be any senate trial before biden is inaugurated. How could there be unless the senators wants to deny mr trump time to prepare a defense that means a trial would have to take place when mr trump is a private citizen.
