Gun Sales Top 16.4 Million in 2022

"Next topics here, 16.4 million guns sold in 2022. I mean, I'm for responsible gun ownership. Love it. But it is just amazing to me, you know, that we continue to have this argument in the United States. There's so many other things we can do just a random thought here again. The more you bring it to the attention, the more people think they're going to get taken away. What actually happens, James, they buy the guns. I was just about to ask you, I was going to say, is it just the fear of like, hey, we're going to take your guns away. They're like, all right, well, I'm going to buy them before you do, chief. Yep. Oh yeah. Yeah, the folks, oh yeah. The AR-15 manufacturers, the arm folks. I mean, the funny thing is, those AR-15 style guns, they can't keep them in stock. I mean, even people who may not want them are buying them because there's this threat that we're going to do away with them. And again, they're just all the lies and everything and go with it. But yeah, 16 point for me, and I think Joe Biden now is trying to get into the gun sales Hall of Fame with president Obama. So, you know, we'll see. They're invested in the guns too. It's all a ploy. No, I'm sorry. It's so funny. I was saying to you before that, you know, New Jersey is a mixed bag politically. It really is. But if there's one thing about where I live, and that's north Jersey. We love our guns.

"She had a real eye and even when we didn't have any money, we always lived in a very appealing looking house, even if it was kind of like a dumb dinky house. But I mean, there were a couple different threads going on. I mean, we never made any money. I mean, my father, he's like a real, he's kind of a savant. I mean, he's this brilliant musical arranger. And he's a composer. But he's really like an arranger and an orchestrator. So is he a people person? Or is he more comfortable with notes and numbers? Because my dad was a mathematician. Yes. The borderline Asperger kind of, there's some of that, he's very, as he would say gregarious. So now he likes this kind of talk to people, but he likes to talk about the things he knows. He will lecture you. He will talk about the minutiae when it comes to music and really obscure details. And highly, highly, highly critical. I mean, my parents were like the original commenters. Like before there was Internet commenting, but it's just what we did in our House. You were a piece about music is my bag. We'll put a link to this up on our website to some of the stuff that you wrote and obviously to your homepage where all your LA times articles are up. But specifically, the one you wrote about coming from a musical family and the pressure to be. To excel at music is so it's such a great article and it is, it paints this incredible picture. I felt like I was in your living room, watching your parents give you feedback and criticism as you played the oboe. Well, I mean, that's the punchline there. I had to play the oboe. I was an oboist, and part of it was that they wanted me to win. You know, they wanted me to win the competitions and get in the all state orchestra and that's what you did. Well, yeah, but the funny thing is they didn't sort of put it together that if I had played the violin, I probably would have been as good and still gotten into the orchestra just because a lot of people play the violin doesn't mean that a lot of people are good enough to get to win the competition. So they thought it was a more of a shoe in. They thought they didn't want me to be deprived of the experience of being in the north Jersey regional band or something, you know? Like the guy in The Rock band that plays bass. He knows he can get in 'cause you always need a bass player because very few people set out to play because it's not inherently a compelling instrument. Right, well it's not in front and center and all that. It's funny because I was listening to an interview with Rainn Wilson from the office. And he revealed that he was a bassoonist and I just thought, oh, perfect. That's perfect. That explains exactly the guy that would be a bassoonist. And one of the indignities, one of the many indignities of being an oboe, is that people often confuse it with the bassoon. And so you had the words of a similar sort of shape to them, just coming out of your mouth. So they would say, oh, the oboe isn't that that big thing, and it's not. It's small. But soon, is that even a read instrument? Yes, it is. It's a double read instrument. What's a double read? Meaning that a clarinet has just a single piece of wood that you attach to the mouthpiece of the instrument. So the oboe, the read is made of two pieces, and it's actually bound together with string and cork and you stick it in there. And part of being an oboe and bassoon is too, I guess, is that at some point you're expected to make your own reads. All oboe is serious ones, professional ones have a whole workshop and they have tools and shavers and wood and all those sorts of things. And they have to make them. It's like some sort of 19th century exercise where you need an apprentice or something. And I could never learn how to make the read. I just could not, I couldn't get it. So even if I had been the most dedicated serious oboe, I would have been hindered by my total lack of motor Klein motor skills. Closely related to the clarinet or is that an insulting question? My oboe teacher, in fact, once said the clarinet is not an instrument. It's not an instrument. Oboe is the thing about the oboe is the reason that it plays the a that tunes the orchestra is that it doesn't, it's the hardest instrument to tune. So the rest of the orchestra literally has to tune to the oboe because it's hard to adjust. And that's just like the perfect metaphor for all oboists. I mean, they will not change. Stubborn. They won't change. They're not going to sway to anybody. Do you think it's a little bit of I'm going to claim my place in life that I can defend? I'm going to set up my fort that is off the beaten path. So I don't have to compare myself to other people and then I can say that my thing is unique and singular and nobody can really offer up a good compelling argument because nobody else does it. Or nobody else knows what it is. It knows about it. Yeah, that's probably true, but none of that appealed to me. I was not into being a misfit or anything like that in high school. I mean, the name of the game for me was fitting in and affiliation, you know? Which do you think was stronger your desire to fit in with your peers or your desire to please your parents? Were they both strong? You okay? Yeah. What happens if I cough? You're going to edit that out. Oh, it's so real. What was stronger? Well, that is a good question. I mean, part of it, you know, my parents wanted me to, you know, is that horrible catch 22, and it's funny. I always say my parents are like the whitest Asians you've ever met because you see this in a lot of Asian parents. They want the kid to succeed, but they don't want them to be social. Like they want them to be popular, but they don't want them to do any of the things it's necessary to be popular. I know I'm making a huge generalization. I'm going to get like a really racist. Way at all. I don't think it's the thing that you see in high achieving often first generation immigrant parents. And my parents were none of those things. I mean, they were high achieving in the most particular way. They didn't care if I basically failed half of my classes. If I was playing the oboe well, if I was practicing, they didn't care. And I did fail math quite often. But to answer your question, I think, yeah, they wanted me to be to be well adjusted and to represent them well in the world, but they didn't like me acting like a kid. And certainly not like a teenager.

"At North Jersey dot com says because of 9 11 brought us together Covid seems to be tearing us apart. Jim, take us through it. Okay, Well, first of all, I want to give a disclaimer. I am not an expert. I'm just someone who talks to experts. And since experts are part of the issue right now, whether people trust them or not, I almost feel there needs to be like a big disclaimer on the whole Any kind of conversation like this, But I will tell you what people have told me. So that fair? Yeah, of course. What are you hearing? Okay, so I think you know, start out with it is to a certain extent comparing 9 11 to, uh, to carve it is it's a little apples and oranges. I mean, they are different situations in many respects, but I think a lot of us have been struck by what we remember. Is this great sense of national unity immediately following 9 11 and this, uh, sense of division right now, we all think attic, others throats and nobody can agree on a common strategy or common. Enemy. And I think one of the things that people have mentioned to me is just that very thing. In the case of 9 11, there was a common enemy. Everybody kind of agreed who the enemy was, Uh, you know what certain outliers. I mean, I guess there's some people think it was still think it was an inside job or something. But I think in general, most people would agree on who it was that attacked us and that we all as Americans were attacked. I mean, it was basically not only we attacked by a foreign adversary with somebody who attacked us specifically. Cause we were American. Okay, right. That really brought us together because I think we tend in general. Well, we're not in a situation like that. We tend to be very We tend to be a very big ary country. And we tend to also identify with our own particular group. You know, I'm black. I'm feminist. I'm gay. I'm Christian and whatever it is Uh, but, you know, once 9 11 happened, we were all Americans, and I think that's something that is really different about this situation. All right, so so bring us to the pandemic, which is created the different scenario. How in terms of our feelings about this? Well, I don't know. You know, Another thing about the pandemic is that there is no I mean, who is the enemy in the pandemic? I mean, it went away. I mean the virus. But virus is not a very satisfying enemy. So I think it's you know, I think everybody depending on the political bubble that they're in, you know, it's either the former president is to blame for the current president is to blame or is the doctors who are insisting on the West Wall taking vaccines or if the people were saying no. Not to take the vaccine. You know, I'm not. You know, I'm not weighing in on, you know, I mean, I have certain opinions about what I think, is, uh, Rational, but at the same time, it is a fact that there is a big difference of opinion whether that's warranted or not, So I think that's a big issue, and I think also there is a sense the silly because, like any time you're in a pandemic, there's a kind of paranoia that says in because in a sense we are all each other's enemies. I mean, anyone of us could be carriers. You know the person you know, in the the person in the supermarket, you know, six Ft. Away from me could be my enemy. Uh, you know, my relative across from me at the table could be my enemy. So I know in the article I wrote, I sort of compared 9 11 to War of the world. It's like, uh, you know, we were attacked by an external enemy that was clearly identifiable. We all came together. Yeah, And Covid is almost like the thing or invasion of the body Snatchers is like, you know, the enemy takes the form of us. Uh, so we are all a little bit afraid of each other, And I think that's also feeds into this. Thanks..

Rep. Andy Kim talks about the impact of anti-Asian hate

"Congressman. Andy kim of new jersey likes to say that he tries to practice the politics of humility. We saw that inaction in the aftermath of the january sixth insurrection when a photo of him cleaning debris alone from the rotunda went viral. Kim's humility is painfully present. In the conversation we had about anti-asian hate in the wake of the atlanta spa shootings and that has flared. Since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic we talked about the impact of all of this on his five year old son in on himself. I didn't know what to tell my kid. And i didn't know what to say. I felt sadness. Because i knew that that was not the last time you would hear these things. Listen to the rest of this powerful conversation right now. congressman came. Thank you very much for coming to the podcast. Thanks so much for having me here today before we get into the big topic of of why we're here and and talking. Let's talk about your district. Because we you and i have spoken. Know offline before about your district which is a endless fascination for me new jersey's third congressional district right that's right. And the demographic makeup is about eighty percent wide and just under four percent asian american. That's about right. That's right and you were elected in twenty eighteen to your first term beating out of the incumbent republican and to add on top of it you are the first democrat of korean descent in the congress. The second overall how did a korean american in an overwhelmingly white district with a republican incumbent. Win election in two thousand eighteen. I'm still still trying to learn all the lessons. I'll be honest. I was why when i started running for congress twenty eighteen I remember my wife asked me. What's the chances that you can win. Said now know maybe fifteen percent. I think i was a little generous with myself at that time to my opponent. One by previous opponent he. You're right he's incumbent. Who won by twenty points in two thousand sixteen and what we ended up pulling off with twenty one point flip in two years To win the seat in now at even with that The the last democrat was re elected to see two one two in a row was before the civil war So so for us to pull is off was was a lot but look for me. This is my whole. And i i go into kindergarten. Here my oldest son's going to kindergarten here now this is this is where i love. This is where i had my first job. My first run you know. Got my first experience so many ways. And that's what. I try to convey the people here that i am a public school kid from this district that that got great opportunities because of this district went on to become rhode scholar. United states diplomat run for congress. I think that's why people appreciated what. I'm trying to bring here that honestly i'm not a knife fighting partisan politician in career public servant. I often say whether you voted for me or not. You're my boss and i talked about. I worked under both republicans and democrats. I think that that's what people are looking for. Someone who's actually not a politician end someone who's tried. Come at this from a set of public service. And i hope to be able to continue to convey to them that. That's what i'm trying to do. What mean here's what's interesting. You talk about that. Twenty one point flip In your district. When you ran the first time when you won election in two thousand eighteen you won by just two percentage points then you run for election in two thousand and twenty. Oh and i should point out that. Donald trump won the district by six points. Twenty sixteen and you talk about the big. You know how much you're the incumbent one but then in twenty twenty when you ran for re election. Donald trump won the district by but only by point two percent. But you won reelection by almost eight percent. What does that tell you about your district in how they were if anything and how they reacted to the trump presidency. Well it says a lot. And i'm still trying to dissect and analyze. It was say is it shows that that people paying attention to what i'm working on that they're not just voting straight down the line You're right either. President biden and senator both lost. My district is best election. And i was able to outperform them by about eight points but but i also think it shows that that that people are not just a straight party voters that the tens of thousands of people in this district voted for president trump in voted for me And now it's a question of why. And i've actually spoken to a number of people who voted for trump invoked for me. Part of it is about some of the issues. That are focused in on your the issues. That i give attention to life. Issues with veterans and issues specific to seniors Issues about the opioid crisis. That has hit so hard in my district so that is part of it but again a lot of people tell me that what it comes down to is just it is just the demeanor in some ways that they see me Somebody that while they may not agree with me on every issue they. They know that. I'm in this for the right reasons And i think that that's that means a lot to me. I want to see that. I am genuine ernest in my love of service and my love of this country and that kind of just wanted to make sure that. That's my northstar. Do these town halls every month over thirty three town halls. You know other things like that people like the engagement they lied. They see me working hard and hustling on their behalf of than in their family. So you know that. That's those are some of the takeaways that i that i get from neo friendly luncheon and so And that is a a a nice Dare say rosy picture of your district. However i was watching you on with My msnbc colleague Nicole wallace and and you were on talking about the tragedy in atlanta The mass shooting where eight people have died. Six of whom are asian asian american And sort of what that says about the tenor and tone of the conversation in this country and wondering from your perspective. How much of a role did donald trump play in. Fostering an atmosphere of menace daresay violence against asian-americans by using racist language to talk about the coronavirus pandemic. I the way. I sort of liking. This is that the former president certainly played a big role in in the situation. That rig i liken it to pour gasoline on a fire taking the situation in igniting even further fanning those flames. But i say that. By also recognizing that those flames existed before donald trump existed before the crowd of ours. It's going to exist after donald trump and after the krona virus I've experienced over the course of my whole life. Ever since i can remember events in my life. I remember some form of discrimination. Some former recognizing that other people see me as an other and that the that i'd never felt in my life fully comfortable that people see me as who i am. I just even go to what you just talked about before about about running for congress. I remember when i was running for congress. I talked to two political experts In the democratic party my party and they said look you seem like a nice guy in all but there's no chance you can win the seat because it's eighty over eighty percent white and less than three or four percent asian american and they told me. Why don't you think about going up to north jersey where there's a lot people that look like you and that's how the party tack to me. When i was thinking about running for congress it hurt and also someone that was a diplomat. The state department before that you know worked in afghanistan and iraq and then we found a letter on my desk when the state department telling me banned from working on anything related to korea. I never even applied to work on anything in korea and the united states state department proactively deemed me as unfit to work on an issue. Even though i had top secret security clearance born in the united states but they told me that letter basically how is that. They don't trust my loyalty

Yes, we could see that tonight. In fact, out across eastern Long Island, we are seeing some rain and sleet mix in on as we head through the overnight hours. We have a window between now and about 2 A.m., where I think we do have the potential for some Slade or even some freezing rain to make Sam precipitation will be very light. So it's not like we're looking at a major icing event it all but Certainly we could see that mixed in, but it'll go back to snow. Azzawi approach daybreak and then it'll be mostly snow with us on into tomorrow afternoon before it finally tapers off just a few intermittent snow showers. As we have through the afternoon hours, we could still see another 2 to 4 inches of snow in and around the five boroughs, and that will put our snow totals with this storm anywhere between 15 and 20 inches by the time all is said and done, hire snow totals out across North Jersey and lower Hudson Valley. Windy conditions overnight winds could gust of times of over 45 MPH in spots of certainly won't want to be careful with that wind shields as well as the possibility.

"And done. How many jerseys First news 5 14 as we bring in our chief meteorologist, Dan zero. So, Dan, not much happening now. What happens is we go through the day today, Things were going to fire up later on. It's not surprising that we haven't seen very much from this winter storm yet because dry air just has this grip on New Jersey so There just hasn't been much falling from the sky. I think that changes around late this morning. Let's say around 10 o'clock is our turning point. As precipitation moves in, and this time it's gonna be pretty widespread here. To the north of about Mercer and Monmouth counties. We're going to start with at least some wintry mix, if not straight, snow, the farther north you go the colder it's gonna be obviously so road conditions may go downhill is we get into the early afternoon hours a little bit ice there. On down a little bit of snow accumulation south of that point, it's going to be mainly rain, but you might find some snowflakes and sleep pellets in involved there again. It's not a major winter storm, but just have to watch out for those changing weather conditions and changing road conditions as the day goes on. High temperatures today. 30 to 40. Things will start tapering off early this evening. But in North Jersey snow showers will probably continue through tomorrow morning. We might see some fog overnight lows fall into the lower to mid thirties. And then tomorrow partly sunny and relatively pleasant highs mid forties chance of a shower Thursday morning, then turning very cold and windy for the end of the week. New Jersey First news time is now 5 15. Around this date around the clock. This'll is New Jersey's first news. Good.

Now I read Chief meteorologist Dan's Arrows weather block Over the weekend. It n j 115 dot com and Dan You said. This is not going to be a nothing storm, but it's not bread and milk. Yes, exactly Right. You know, when we first saw this storm on our model's about a week ago, it looked like something potentially significant, but it's going to struggle here for two important reasons. Number one is very dry air. It's really dry out there today. So it's gonna be hard for that precipitation to start tonight as the storm system moves in, And then as we get into tomorrow, temperatures not quite conducive to winter, In other words, will be close to 40 degrees in South Jersey that spells more of a wet forecast. Then a wintry one s O for during the daytime hours. Today, it's gonna be dry and quiet. The wind not as fierce as it was this weekend Sky's becoming mostly cloudy and it will be cold highs mid to upper thirties. Now snow will creep into the southern half of the state tonight just southern half. Overnight quick coding to maybe two inches of accumulation of possible there overnight. It is still gonna be quiet for the northern half of the state Tonight Lows fall to around 30 tomorrow morning.

"Shoulder. And if you're traveling on the dig in south on into Willis Avenue crash takes out the left hand lane. Our next traffic updates coming up in 10 Minutes on 7 10 W 00 on Two minutes till after five time for weather with meteorologist raced agent at the weather Channel in the icy snow showers out there, Right? Yeah, Joe, A few flurries. Few snow showers. I mention this yesterday with colder air start to come in on what would affect in not only the colder air meaning temperatures are going to really move too much today from the low to mid thirties and around the city and North jersey, Long Island to the upper twenties out southwest Connecticut and Northwest jersey in the lower Hudson Valley. We're probably only going to inch up close to 40 degrees today, and, you know, looking at radar right now, Some snow showers around like a quick little burst here over the next few hours would be shocked if we caught the grounds and maybe go write your name in the car or something on the car windshield, So it's gonna be that kind of event with the colder air coming in. Um, a temperatures marginal. I don't think roadways are gonna be a problem. We might dust some of the roadways with light coating of snow. Other than that, it's just a cold. Rare. That's really story. We're down a few degrees from yesterday. I'm just gonna say near 40 with developing sunshine. As we get into the afternoon, especially tonight mainly clear and a colder night 27. That's actually where we should be this time of year. Gonna be some low twenties and probably even teams as you get outside of the city as we get away from the urban Heat Island tomorrow, again near 40 Friday near 40, a few clouds around with sunshine and the weekend we get an even colder shot of air, coming in eyes only between 30 and 35 loads could get into the low twenties to the mid twenties. And that we still do have a chance of maybe some light accumulating snow falls we get into Monday. Joe that doesn't look like it's gonna be a big system at this time. But that would be our next shot at a little bit of snow. But it is going to stay cold. I think starting this weekend into early next week, maybe in the middle of next week. It does look like we'll have below average temperatures finally start to get a maybe. For a long period. So to say that's not saying much this Winter Joe of Cold Air, settling in here two days in the Northeast and to England. All right. Very good Meteorologist restage it with the forecast.

"Need an accountant and a lawyer insurance and you know it goes on and on all the people you need to have run your business, and that's that's what we have in the road, Dan. How many times a week or like, What's the average of meet ups that you have within your network? The group meets once a month on average, but we do private meetings with our members based on availability. So as an example, you might be really busy with your business. You know, during the months of June, July and August But in September it might open up for you. So you'll do a lot of more private meetings with us during the months of September and October, so we can actually use our database for your benefit and get access to who exactly is good for your business. Do you also teach people how to network Because it's changed. I mean, there with all the speed networking things, and now people are like, Oh, it's based on relationships. So you don't really want to go up to somebody say Here's my card. You need to call me And if you don't call me I'm gonna call you every week for the next 52 weeks until you You need me That's not doesn't work anymore, right? No, it doesn't work. I actually have from days gone by that we're doing this for so long. I used to have a segment video to call just one thing, and I used to teach people how to network and how to really not do the wrong things. And people learned sometimes better from seeing what people are doing rather than actually hearing it. So by having an on video actually worked, I think a lot better for some people. As you mentioned. A lot of people will walk around with a bunch of business cards, and they'll give it out to everyone in the room and say, Oh, here's Here's what I am. Here's what I do. Don't even say who they are yet, but they already given the business card like it's candy. You shouldn't be speaking to anyone until you know what they do and how you could be of help to them. Because if they look at it from saying what you're selling them, they're turning you up before they even listen to you. You need to basically get some sort of a bond, you know, find out who they are. And find out if you can help the mark and up them. It's about building a relationship. And when people understand that network has nothing to do with sales and all about relationship building, they'll do so much better and networking. I was going to say to a terrible golf game could be a great icebreaker. Yes, As long as you're not slow, right, So can you one of things. I also checked, saying, my group of your playing golf. It's not a sin to play bag off. It's a sin to place logo. I have to speed it up. Sure, yeah, I actually am the fastest call for your level of meat because I was taught that when I learned how to play And they said to me honestly, then no one cares if you're good or bad and got off, they just character faster, Slow, say that's something I could tweak them for. Sure, Liz as you mentioned, you know, we are always looking for business owners and decision makers, who not only to join our group but also to be referral partners for our members. We keep adding to our database of quality, high end people, and the goal is really to just keep the audience growing. So everyone does more work together and help each other. We actually are expanding our program as well. Right now we're in North Jersey, which covers basically lower Westchester Manhattan in North Jersey. We're about to open up chapters and the Philadelphia region as well as Long Island in Central Jersey. So as we open up more groups, we're gonna access to more people as well. Which is great. But what's the most exclusive golf club? You've gone to all of our clubs that we play? Now are private country clubs. So unless you're a member of that club, you're not gonna have access to those clubs. So our clubs in general are pretty elite clubs. We play courses from the area of Rockland County, New York, where is Paramount Country Club two courses like Trump National and Hackensack and Upper Montclair and you know they're really all over the place and they're all beautiful clubs. But the key thing is that we keep them over the radius of no more than 30 miles so that everyone's not traveling too far. So do you have to be a member to go? If you're if I'm a member of your group, you have to be a member of the golf club to go or I could go under your auspices. No. One of the benefits of being a member of our group. Not only can you go, but you can invite your clients and perspective clients as guests to these great country clubs. It's the hospitality system for you as well. So you really get a lot of value for your money, then because joining all these golf clubs to be pretty expensive, right? Yeah, and it's only one day a month, which is not a big commitment for anyone and the whole company owns the memberships or any of the owners of partners can use it. So it's Kind of cool because, like you said, not only are you getting access to these kind of clubs, but you're putting on your calendar that once a month I'm going to be in all these great places in terms of like reaching the millennial entrepreneur, and the new creatives and Solar preneurs is like Is God Still a thing or are you seeing it's like kind of a lost are I was just curious to see like how you're connecting to those younger folks who would benefit from something like this, but don't necessarily look to golf as a networking piece, So it's funny. You say that we actually have a very big spectrum of people in the group. There is a pyre level of older people than younger people because of the fact that To be an owner of a company is typically it takes you years to get to the point of being the owner or decision maker. But the people who are young entrepreneurs who are starting out their business is this is a fantastic way. We have some people who doing whether the Gulf or not to join the system to get access to the people who will actually directly help them jump start their business and rather than having to go through the hoops of basically waiting their time out to get in front of these kind of people. It's an instantaneous gratification where they're building those right relationships and they're getting guidance and they're learning a lot from the people are in the room. Listeners.

The Dissonance Between Sanders and His Supporters

"Vermont senator Bernie Sanders seems to be cruising through the first few primary states and as he scoops of delegates for the nomination some Democrats are wondering how the democratic socialist at the top of the ticket might affect down ballot races could a nominee who is so far to the left hurt those running for Congress were more centrist especially when we're talking about congressional seats Democrats flipped in twenty eighteen to take back control of the house to talk about all this we're joined now by Dave Wasserman from the cook political report welcome thanks for having me so just describe for us the argument that moderate Democrats are making why do they say that they're worried about Sanders becoming the nominee in terms of how it could affect other races in November we're hearing pushback from variety of fronts on the democratic side there are members from South Florida who are uncomfortable with Sanders's comments on the Cuban regime there are more moderate pro business Democrats from upscale suburbs who believe that his argument for revolution just will not sell at a time when the economy is pretty good for the professional work force in this country and there are Democrats who believe that a seventy eight year old Vermont democratic socialist will just lose badly to trump and take the ticket nationwide I'm skeptical that he's going to have the dramatic down ballot implications for Democrats that Republicans say he will what kind of districts would you say are most at risk in twenty twenty and how might a Sanders nomination play in those districts so right now Republicans need to gain eighteen seats to win back the house majority the Democrats won in twenty eighteen and Democrats want a variety of of different kinds of districts in the mid terms they won some seats that were more blue collar and had voted for Obama in the path Austin voted for trump in twenty sixteen those included seats in Michigan and Iowa in northern Maine there are also the seats in the suburbs that traditionally were very Republican in the past and voted for Mitt Romney that have been trending blue Orange County California where Democrats picked up four districts you have north Jersey where there's no longer a single Republican in the house those are the kinds of places where Sanders might run weakest relative to Hillary Clinton and we're Democrats will need to spend money to make the case that there are different kind of Democrat that said tell me why you're skeptical about if it were a Sanders nomination that having a palpable effect down ballot Republicans are Getty right now because they believe the Sanders nomination could give them a chance to win back house control but there are a couple of reasons I would push back on that and be more cautious the first is that voters are likely to view Bernie Sanders as an independent political entity in twenty sixteen we noticed that voters distinguish Donald Trump from the Republican Party someone and so Republicans in districts where trump was unpopular actually performed okay Republicans held on to control of the house in twenty sixteen when trump was elected in part because a lot of voters went to the polls believing that Hillary Clinton was going to win the election and they wanted a check on president Clinton or so they thought if Bernie Sanders as the democratic nominee then there's a possibility that a lot of voters who are displeased with their choices between Sanders and trump would vote for a Democrat to continue having a check on president trump well at any rate it seems that some Republican candidates now are using a possible Sanders nomination in their ads I mean you know Democrats they want to take back the Senate in Arizona Republican senator Martha McSally has already released ads tying her democratic opponent the astronaut mark Kelly to Bernie Sanders before Sanders has even won the democratic

The Allure of the Roadtrip: Building Towable Tiny Houses with Author Chris Schapdick

"I'm curious if we just art with with your kind of personal story you know what brought you to the tiny house movement and then what what made you decide to become an Tiny house builder yeah it's well it's it's as with most things in life they very often happens sort of by accident not slants sort of way and it's it's the same thing for me really I I was going back like about five six years I was a father a nine year old girl living at New York City in Berry league populated suburbia here and I kind of regretted that my daughter wasn't really getting a lot of Serb exposure due to to nature and two things that I don as a kid camping fishing hiking these sorts of things so I started thinking about that more more and I decided to buy a piece of land North York City with the idea that we would go up there we would can for something that would be a place to Kinda destination for the two of us in the one thing led to another it was right around that time that I found H. Schafer's Tiny House spoke and that kind of intrigued May and then I started going online and I found tiny houses they were b Ah Goto at the time you know if you go back a couple of years there weren't that many companies doing this sort of thing and and yeah and and suv this idea of having a place to go Kim kind of evolved into well would've built cabin there or something like that better and Yeah let's go another in Iowa wound up deciding on a tiny house and building a tiny house I'd did for a a shell build from tumbleweed folks since it was a little intimidated with doing all the framing and roofing and things like that myself are so the offered what was called an Army Amish Orrin Razor and I went with that and yet proceeded to sort of spend the next several years off and on weekends kind of finalizing that building and doing all the various things that need to be done the insulation the interior electrical plumbing and coming up with all the various decisions that to be made in that during that process as well but that's kind of like how how yeah I got for me to be talking about this wonderful tiny house upstate New York that's awesome so it's a it's a tiny house on wheels which tumbleweed model is it is the Linda Linden do that anymore but but yeah says the Linden model has nicer to foot up or on the back of it and that that appeal to me definitely so do you still you still have that tiny house absolutely yes great that's great so you you finished out the tumbleweed one then what what was the next step to saying I want to do this for other people yeah yeah so when I finished the house into a tiny house showed that was taking place in North Jersey I'd never really intended to to take the house you know ability to travel with you know it was really built to to to fill the purpose that interest described but this show was taking place that was like well you know what Lake with slips get more involved in the community because I you know I enjoy this let's let's get together with some other like minded people and it wasn't too far away spend sixty mile drive you know my my truck was up to the task of towing it there and I went to the tiny show was really I didn't know what to expect quite frankly and during the course of building the house maybe ten people got to see it you're tired on this one weekend ad like three or four thousand people trek through the House and in just the feedback and be the positive reception that I got from people in them and the kind words that they had from the House of what I've done is really just very socially overwhelming for me and it gave me a little bit of pause and I thought well I don't ever get this kind of reward or feedback from the five job you know I go in there stangeland during paid but I'm like crunching numbers on a spreadsheet writing emails that is not very fulfilling this weekend blatantly was had me kind of reconsider yeah Lord aspects of my life at that point wow that's huge yeah I guess when you're you know working nine to five which which I did for while as well nobody like treats your work as like something amazing and Special Lake worth worth congratulating but I guess in the tiny swirled because everything can be so unique everything kind of reflects the builder or the client or both there is the opportunity to it's really impact people with with the work that you do yeah absolutely not I couldn't agree more and and that houses is really just an extension of who I am exactly like what you're describing is it's such a personal thing when in our lives do we really have that opportunity ninety to create something like that that's such an expression for we are what we hold the import so forth so what was the first what was that well I guess what was the second tiny house you built after your your personal house yeah so the second time he asked us kind of funny because the first tiny house great reception I was like that was awesome i WanNa do this again Xie House show that wasn't so conveniently located that I could just kind of drag my house to it goes down in Florida like okay we'll Matt telling my ten thousand power house for New York to Florida unrealistic so we'll have a way how do I get to have this experience again build another tiny house and that's when I started building sort of the smaller more mobile of Artaud Gypsy wagon types pictures and they put that second tiny house together in a matter of like six weeks the first five years Bill Amazon took six weeks in and off the floor and I went and it was it was really just a desire to continue to be part of the community and Environment yeah so was that the Gypsy wagon yes gypsy wagon bill but I did nice and did you did you sell that house the Florida show did not sell it at the Florida Show I subsequently sold it but but it was yeah it was something that the second I'm bill was something that I wanted to reduce I'd I'd already started thinking about continuing to build these and building four of them for for bull so as part of that process what I built the press gypsy wagon I documented the entire build I was taking a look let me do online floors or something like that ultimately it while the apartment struggles dot com and I got a lot of Nice feedback there and again that my point there was really to make money with it or whatever it was just something that I did at pure enjoyment and and and the whole so you know helping others do something similar yeah and I love I love that you put this up on instructive holes and you know that website I feel like it was really big in the like maybe like late audits early tens it's a wonderful resource like people post so many cool projects up there and like you've got a step by step basically set of instructions for how to build a Gypsy wagon now I'm curious now that you've built several more tiny houses what are some things on that Gypsy wagon that that you would do differently well you know one thing that's always been tricky as working with wood and especially when you're working with plywood which is kind of be the exterior shell is Jesse wagons the process of ceiling that would and protecting it from the what's is such a is such an important stab and it's it's tricky right because there's those sugars a lot of like sort of green grade policies but you want to use the environmentally friendly products ideally worry about things like allergies off gas and people have sensitivities those types of things so that's that's kind of that was a struggle right out of the gate some extended like continues to be one where I try to be like very thorough. CNN ceiling this this this plywood is something that it always found to be a bit of a struggle

A Chat With Guy Gsell, President & Founder of Field Station Dinosaurs

"Now. Let's join a conversation with Guy Gazelle the president and Chief Executive Producer of field station dinosaurs here on those leadership guy. Welcome the show so happy to have you here. It's great to be here. My curiosity is piqued. I have so many questions first and foremost I'm a kid I was. I guess every boy's goes to kind of girls. Go through horseface think little boys go through dinosaur phases maybe right. I was like a dinosaur fanatic. It was a freak about dinosaurs. Now we see more and more girls are into the dinosaurs in fact one of the most popular web series now is Dyno Dana. Yeah that's right. That's right. I've seen that that it had really gone out of fashion have they. They just always consistently popular yeah when I was putting my business plan together and I I was going out to investors trying to convince them to invest in a dinosaur park which is not something that exists you know really and because what I had to sell was the popularity of dinosaurs yeah and that the dinosaurs have been popular so they I sparked the imagination. You're in the eighteen eighties. They were lines around the block right to see the first dinosaurs in in London and in Philadelphia the the biggest blockbuster movie of the of the nineteen teens was was Gertie. The dinosaur which is a which is a cartoon in on the biggest blockbuster movie. The of twenty eighteen was drastic world three. I mean it's just has never has never gone down right. Why the FA- I mean I guess I guess it's intuitive who'd of why we're so fascinated with him because he seems so unreal I guess but what do you think the fascination is around. I think that they seem unreal but they were real and that's the fascination and that's what kids love about them because at an age where more and more things taken away from kids so there is no Santa Claus there is no tooth fairy. There is no Easter Bunny. There is no abominable snowman but but there is this they were real. We never take the dinosaurs away from the kids and the other thing that I think that really resonates with children is they have a shaky sense of time a few days in a while two years ago seventeen million years years ago. That's all the same to a little kid but when you tell them they lived right here so here in Derby we have a you you know a tyrannosaurus which is the kind of dinosaurs that actually marine reptile that lived right here in Kansas Yeah and when you tell them they lived here right where you are that really resonates with kids. They're like Oh. This giant thing was here that I think is what's interesting you so. I oh I think back to that. When I was that age you know eight nine when I was just so every tunnel to the library has picking a book doing learn everything that could about it and this isn't the seventies and when I found out that these lived here and I remember going to one of the I guess it was called the on this fear here at the time it was used to be the old original library and they had you know those fossils of this marine animal lived here and I'm like what you know. This was an ocean just fascinating. It's interesting that you put it that way. Yeah how how okay so. How did it all start so were you fascinated with dinosaurs as a kid yeah I was? I might really really early. Earliest memory was going to the New York world's fair in the in the nineteen sixty five at the world's for ran two years but I only remember number nineteen sixty five to sixty four and they had the the very famous sinclair dinosaur exhibit and I remember that exhibit and being really fascinated with with that and you know my first my favorite book when I was a kid was Danny and the dinosaur the whole dinosaur kids still read that makes me very happy happy and if I go anywhere and I say have any of you have read this book all the kids for his hands so yes now. I did not stay a dinosaur this or fanatic I mean that was something from my childhood that that I remembered fondly search like dinosaurs went ahead kids of my own taking them to the American Museum of Natural History three to see the dinosaur bones Was You know a big highlight of of being a dad for kids that age but I came back to the dinosaurs really when I started working in the exhibit business and how do we get involved in the business. I mean were you kind of looking at your background where you you integrate drama theatre acting. That was kind of what you thought your dream. Your path was going to be yes so I worked in the theatre. My my whole career as of of playwright as stage manager I did. I did some acting I became the managing director of a theater company. I mean I sort of worked my way up what you would call a theater generalist and so I was working at a theater in Red Bank New Jersey in we've did the capital campaign and we built a brand new theater and what happened is that caught the attention of some New York theater producers they were developing. I Am Exhibit Hall in The New York Times building in Times Square and because I had years of theater experience and I had just built a brand new building just done exactly what they wanted to do and almost built from scratch an organization they hired me to come in and and develop Ben. I was the original director of Discovery Times Square so that's how I got into the exhibit business guys in the theater we're going into the exhibit business and they hired a guy from the theater to go into the exhibit business with them and it was in the exhibit business and we did. King Tut and Titanic Harry Potter we did the the largest taurine exhibits that are that are currently out there and in the exhibit business we were constantly doing testing trying to figure out what what what exhibit to bring in next and dinosaurs always scored the highest every every time we did any kind of Nielsen intesting audience testing dinosaurs came in as the thing that was going to be the most popular and it wasn't appropriate. We had fairly low ceilings. Nothing being big enough to bring in a giant dinosaur. We were doing more high end. Shows like King Tut. We did the densities girls the producers didn't I think that animatronic dinosaurs really was a good match with the Dead Sea Scrolls so I got the idea then I said yes I should somebody should go out out there and do an outdoor animatronic dinosaur exhibit in New Jersey and sort of hit me that is actually the most qualified person to do that so in what way why why well I had the exhibit experience. I've grew up in North North Jersey just outside of New York City so I knew the the area. I knew exactly what would happen. I just built a exhibit hall. I had just built a theater so I had a lot of experience launching things and building things so I don wow so. Let's hang hang on so that that nudging that you've got he say okay I'm going to we need to put this dinosaur park. In New Jersey came in a dream and a PIFF AENA calling thing on a train on a journey what if you had to look back in retrospect and evaluate why this calling you think is it because you like the excitement of creating an exhibit. Do you like the educational aspect of it. What do you what what is it So I spent twelve of my years in theater. I spent working in children's theatre. touring internationally with a theater company called the paper. APOR bag players so teaching kids entertaining kids that is something that that that I really like and and understand hand so that aspect of it is very exciting to me. and that's what we do there. I mean in addition to Amtrak dinosaurs we have over forty live chain games and shows and activities that kids participate in so it's. I really did take my my years as a theater artist and combine line that with my experience in the exhibit business and my experience in in administration and and and management and I said I'm just gonNA put these altogether and I'm just GonNa Start this dinosaur park so sitting on the train you felt this was the purpose of calling. It was so strong that you immediately jobbers is something that you ruminated marinated over for quite a while so I not a fool so I was gonNA. Just quit my job I because because I had been working in the theater and had done a capital campaign. I knew a number of people who were both philanthropists but I also knew a number RAV people who were had had done some investing in theater had done investing in Broadway shows and I went went to them and I said to this my my business partners now my business partners then my perspective business partners and explain to them the the allure of dinosaurs and why I thought this would work and I said I need some seed money. I and the seed money was enough for me to quit my job and to scout out locations and try to secure location for the park and to find out more more about the business of dinosaur park because they exist. They're not they're not as big in North America much bigger in Asia and there are many more in Europe than than here it and find where I would find these animatronic dinosaurs and what they would cost and sort of got a business plan together so those investors said yes we. We are excited by this. We think this is great. We see the good work.

Battle of The Brews Live from The Landmark In Glassboro

"The reason why we're here today is that we have a battle the bruise news and we've invited her kyle's invited us to be here and we also have the people from three threes eighty sand. Taco brewing company and ax narrow now and we're going to have a beer off. I guess what we're having more than one. I assume the battle of the beer's battle the beer so we're going to anybody. WHO's trying to beers out there. We're going to see which ones are favor one at two o'clock. I think we're GONNA it will cub cut the two o'clock. You know there's no hard times here not in fact. We're currently forty five minutes later than we thought we were wrong. Jersey time. It's a Sunday. What do you expect. It's a I think it's probably one of the last Sunday's before football so a before Labor Day yeah well. That's true. That's when you know Ostlund. Where most of us live we get our city back. We get our city back but that's okay doc kyle. This is a pretty interesting idea that you had here so tell me a little bit about marketing Americana and their affiliation with craft craft glass bro landmark been here forever. It's really went through a lot of changes since its inception but you know the crab craft beer scene really flew up probably ten years ago and I think that the concept here's all along with that we went from having hope nope twelve fear of domestic threats twenty total realize that there's a huge demand here and we expanded that to be forty draft beers and to have a strong focus towards the area what South Jersey Breweries Tristate Breweries Philadelphia's obviously twenty five minutes away feels local to me. US Asfaw lived there as well so very local but that's really been our been a big part of that. We are going to be a beer. I lace harmonies float around beard. You know we want you to have some beers control the food you know spirits. They have a place here as well but you know I think that the heart of what our concept is is it is about the beer. It's nice to see because one of the things that's happened in the craft beer landscape is that you guys were early adopters this obviously this is. How many years is this for the festival. This is the seventh year so there was kind of a whole here for a long time with people that would have craft beer and I guess with the Robo Abo- innovation that's happened here. There's been influx but you guys one of the early adopters and do a great job with it. I noticed that you have a good representation from all over the state in Philly here which is nice and you know they do have they do have some big name beards that you know that need to have which were not averse to. We are Bir see not script but it's nice to see somebody as big as you guys. It has such a force here in Gloucester County and surrounding area really adopt the craft and kyle. You have a great list of local beers share. A great tap list of WHO actually decides on which Beers on tap is that you have a committee. I'm not that involved in the beer selection here to give a lot of the credits Nikki Nado who is here today he was the one running around getting all this stuff organized for us he does most the selections dealing with the Reps and the local guys play into his taste buds so a lot of credit on that Mitzi great job nick so when you guys are when you start to craft beer one of the things that is a not an issue but is your servers and I know that I've been here a bunch of times your servers actually know how to describe era so as the director of operations that something you guys put in the plan for your for your locations Yep. It's executed properly. All of our staff has to go through a relatively relatively rigorous training all what we offer terms of not just food spirits opinion beer and being able to actually describe the different styles is pretty very important and being able to lead people in the right direction a lot of a lot of novice beer drinkers are looking for certain flavor and you have to be able to know the list we talk yeah. We talk about this all the time so key tell me what tastes like coors light and then direct them to the Water Fountain then but there is. There's something here for everybody. Craft Beers expanded to such a point nine Clark. Even we have an article coming up or would have been out already on non alcohol beer is that are really making a big splash thing. It's against my religion the not Alcohol Beers but what's Nice is I think the breweries all making something that can get the entry level here drinking and looking your tap. Lets you do have those as well for sure. I as I've gotten older. I've appreciated that Craft Beers evolved with my tastes now. I feel like he used to be. How crazy can we make the sphere top going to beat a drink Takao happy. Can we make it. I think a lot of that now is more. What can we make that people are going to drink a lot of lottery. You know six seven beers used. BP had six arrogant bastard. You wouldn't taste for weeks now now. There's there's enough craft beer out there that they're they're making products. That are fun to try. You can have a much of different things and enjoy your enjoy summer day Zoya Winter Day whatever it is and I appreciate that they're they're bringing it down a little bit but keeping the flavor there that's true I mean I like to see a lot of five five and a half's to have a lot of flavor that you can have five or six out and still mo the lawn in a straight line. It's not going to ruin your day. Hey No long sessional. Beers is the big the big new thing we're seeing a lot of cultures a lot of fully flavored. Ip as that are coming coming up forty five percent founders kind of broke the mold on that with all day. I Ta Nea Ri Billick Seven Breweries just off of that brand we see dogfish coming out with the same thing and all all the major brewers following in suit so just natural evolution. I guess to see ready was trying to make some stuff in fact one of our friends at Tom. Foley just has a low calorie one hundred Ed coury. Ida says that he just came out with and so as the market has evolved. There's not just ten breweries. You have to be able to to bring some frog consumers so I'll glassware beer festival. That's one of the reasons that we here as well so tell us a little bit about what's going on with this year. I know that you have a big qasis on Jersey beer yet this year. I think we're we're getting close to half of the total participants being from Jersey. I think a great weekend when you can do it is to go to a town. Check out the breweries that are there. They'll give you a backbone for your trip. Yes really give you can capture that into the the festival where you're like. Why a never gets a you know all these different places from your down to the tip of Cape May up to the up to the North Jersey side the validation kind of give a good representation while those monthly's emphasis sample what they have to offer. I think that's that's good. That's experienced driving towards is trying to grade their like that impossible. We'll road trip in a day yet and done a good job this year. You have a forty five plus breweries. I believe this year. They're coming last minute adults less well. That's that's the nature of the business and the Nice thing guys do too is it's a great area but tickets really reasonable so you had the VIP package that runs from twelve to five that gives you early initiative. That's one of fifty bucks. I mean that is that is a great price. Fifty dollars for a pours two was too. We're doing according to the ABC and that report is exactly two ounce. You have no more and you're you're able to come in an hour earlier to beat the crowds a little bit. I mean that's a great great. Price for forty bucks even income from one to five last four forty five and still be able to sample a bunch of beers. VIP ticket though that's the one absolutely that's a great deal and a lot of people not take my advice but I always say that he should probably start with the food exactly and they may not with a couple beers. You get the food because 'cause you whenever knows wants to eat. There's GonNa be lines there and get the food. Go the way of good base you know cruise the rest of the day. It's all about the base rallied the beating up Tom Claver Day of an article about eight things to do when you're preparing for a beer festival and that was one of them in that was definitely one of them and there's a bunch more. You can get that on the site. Sap or seen dot com but I feel like the people that come in here that power drink for the first twenty minutes to thirty minutes running around. I think they're day gets shorter. Oh yes I think they're ruining the ruined. All the other beers ability. My mind wasted what he just says a Patriot beer festivals right down the ones you want to try after about ten of Milstar taste better yeah especially with all these people are bringing these gigantic cop toward Beers speaking of yours. WE WANNA try coming up to the stage roses Caraba Callahan of Taco brewing company. Everybody here knows him fund bobby and he brought a some beers here today.

"Greg the house Democrats say that a bipartisan deal to suspend the debt limit and increase government spending for two years should pass the house of representatives this week house speaker Nancy Pelosi let those negotiations with treasury secretary Stephen managing to give the U. S. more borrowing authority and then lift those budget caps president trump even tweeting about this just this morning saying house Republicans should support this agreement which he says quote greatly helps our military and our vets Bloomberg news congressional reporter Eric Watson has been following the story from the very beginning and joins us now by phone from Capitol Hill thank you very much for taking the time once again with us following this from the very beginning so the vote is going on today that's right it's going to be about four forty five that you have it scheduled to come to the house floor and it's looking like all systems go as far as the vote count the Republicans are looking to get their numbers up a little bit you know if this becomes an all Democrat bill as far as the votes carrying it over it could make trouble but isolated and I think some of his advisers maybe nervous that if you feel like play you'll suddenly decide not to support it which is that in the past so I think you know to see his tweet good morning miss we think they're trying to drive the vote count up there's some indication of that less than half of the Republican conference will support it when I get that number up a little higher and just to reiterate that time crunch here they've got to have this done by tomorrow yeah the well I mean the houses get the going to six week recess by tomorrow and come back September ninth that would be after the date the treasury secretary Stephen Isshin critics could cause U. S. fault the vault the lack of the debt ceiling being raised so this bill would raise the debt ceiling to enjoy thirty first twenty twenty one and sentence expected to take it up next week there in that actually got to the house and everything in order by the time August recess starts for both chambers the following week now Florida representative Donna Shalala said that house Democrats talked about this compromising their meeting and said she said this is a quote everyone is going to hold their nose and pass it why hold their nose well you know these compromise there's something that everyone could find it for many Democrats but the military spending you succeed all the spending on but the programs of the big problem so the liberals are also upset that the definitely will come back into play it early in the yeah the second external the next president if the chance for Mitch McConnell to to find some leverage to get some spending cuts are the primary but either going to you know she said hold their nose and at the court some progress is wanted more domestic spending less defense spending the president tweeting that this is going to help our military and our vets and then there are moderates in the Democratic Party who are worried about building up on the deficit and just kicking the debt ceiling can down the road that's right they're not rightly many office in this at all of this is the term for for savings that used to pay for you know spending increases the and the blue dog coalition which is the group of about thirty years so moderates mode many of in swing districts they really try to pride themselves on that idea Hey go which is the medical term for paying as you go along and and the fact that this does not cover itself it could increase deficits by one point seven trillion dollars over ten years that inflation estimates and and that interested only has seventy seven dollars saving half of that comes from increasing customs user fees so you know this is not something that they're too excited about the Korean I think my prediction is that the bills are you gonna pass you're gonna see a lot of members for example I just got timer who represent the swing district north Jersey but against what does negotiating this deal with the treasury secretary do for house speaker Pelosi standing within her party well it's a really good question I mean I think we have a great story on the terminal I like I like Billy house but with his nipples he then she's you know she's dealing with the government as well as of this project each of the president what she's basically were blocked because of you know lack of overwhelming evidence that would sway public opinion or sway the Republican Senate to remove president trump so yes I think you know our position is always the issue at U. verse wrong leader within the caucus but there are local elements were getting frustrated with the lack of impeachment and you know with the these deals but I think it's so far though not stepped up and replace Serrano like replacement means that she's in the driver seat for now okay we have about a minute to go here so let's just go through the next steps it's got a pass the house what's likely to happen today then it goes to the Senate how long before it makes it to the president's desk well I think we settled on it next week for sure at the call center as of this moment I don't know which day that will be setting up nineteen judicial nominations a lot of books that sweet could be earlier rather than later but you know there are the ability of some Republicans and others to hold up and constitutional hurdles that extra days you know as far as closing up debate so it could be coming at the end of the week so we quality burdensome signing within by a week from Friday okay I just we only have about fifteen seconds here but is there any risk that somebody's going to put a hold on it because there is so much concern about the fiscal impact down the road well I mean they can put a hold it but it does mean that you have to go through the hoops of of the extra votes and day will track things out but they can't permit walk it now all right Eric thank you so much for taking the time with us once again as we continue to follow this it looks like it's going to be wrapping up soon Eric Watson covering Congress for Bloomberg news taking a look at the debt ceiling debate and

From Overcoming Fear to Living a Childhood Dream

"Sell wanna drive? You actually wrote a two part blog wanna drive one drive or not. And this was interesting. This was triggered by a friend of yours. Peter who found a YouTube video on how to drive an eighteen speed transmission, which by the way, I can't even imagine. So it brought back memories for you of a pretty big event your grave digger in college. You. You worked with guy named Billy who had a big truck. And you wanted to what you said Dr truck like Billy's. So what this was an interesting story. What happened here the whole back story on this goes back to when I was four years old. And I was four years old. I lived across the street from construction company, and I would sit on the curb in the afternoons, and I would watch the guys come back with their trucks. And I just kind of fell in love with trucks fast forward from four years old to my teenage years. I'm working at the local cemetery. Setting up for funerals filling in after funerals, whatever and the guy who digs the graves, Billy, Billy. He also has a trucking business and hauling heavy equipment around. And so one day I got up. I was so curious to to experience that see what that was like one day. I got up the courage to ask him if I could go for a ride with one of his guys. And he said he tried to talk me out of it. And then he said, okay sure show up, you know, tomorrow at six I did. So you you showed up at six to spend the day with Michael. Yeah. And you did in fact get to ride in the truck. But then Michael kind of turn the tables on you. So what happened? Yeah. As we. So we went down to Alantic city. This was from Philadelphia went down to Atlantic City picked up machine took it up somewhere north jersey. And then we were coming back we stopped at arrest rest stop. And then we were walking back to the truck. And he. Turns to me, and he's like you wanna drive and I'm like. No, he's like you just going to come out here all day to sit in the truck. He's like come on. You wanna drive or what? So it's like. Okay. And. You know, he put me in. I got I got in. And I started driving. So pretty scary. And it's one of the white load trucks. Right. Yeah. We didn't have we didn't have a machine on at that time. Thankfully. But yeah, it says a big, you know, big semi alright. And so one of the one of the parts of this day that you described was approaching toll booth that you needed to fit this big rig through and had no choice. But to do that. Right. Yeah. I mean once once he we once we got started. He he kind of took a took a nap. So we're on the jersey turnpike. I think and we're driving down see the sign that there's a toll booth up ahead like two miles or something. So I hit him. And I'm like, I can't I can't do this. He's like what it's just a just steer between the tollbooth. You gotta stop anyway to pay them like. Okay. So those are the days before the open road tolling. So I actually had to pull in their stop at the right spot hand the money out to the toll taker and get a receipt receipt back. So it's very scary. It was very scary. So I'm I'm just wondering kind of as a conclusion of the story throughout the whole rest of your life. How many times did you see a truck like that? And and kind of say to yourself like oh my God. I drove one of those well a lot because I did when I when I started my even before I started my business, but I drove all the time L so it was actually in instructive informative. All right. So I've I've I've driven pretty much every kind of Chuck there is so I feel good about it now. Good. But at the
