"And I think, why did I just say that? That's a terrible thing to say. Because in that moment, you're sitting with someone who's suffering. That is not an easy thing to witness. It is often our instinct to want to make them feel better. But if you think about it, it's really more about wanting to be with them, right? If they're already in a place where they can't quite figure out what they're feeling and what they're feeling is pretty awful. And now there's this expectation from this person sitting next to you that you should be happier? Yeah, just feel moral alone, right? But if you're sitting with someone who says, hey, I don't know what you're feeling, but I'd like to know if that's helpful or even, hey, do you want to go for a ride? We could take a drive out into the country. We don't have to talk. We just drive and quiet. Or we could go to the movie. You know, it doesn't have to be about talking about it. It's about, what do we do in life that feels meaningful? There's this natural and even laudable impulse to try to fix things for people, but often that's what you're really trying to do, I think, is fix your own discomfort. I've always been struck by something brene Brown said, I think on this show where she was talking about when her kids have a problem and she would say, you know, I don't know the answer, but I'm willing to sit in the dark with you. And I think that's a pretty good way to put it. Let me ask you two final questions that I often ask. One is, did I fail to ask a question that I should have asked? I mean, I don't think so because it went wherever it was going to go, right? I had thought you might ask me about prolonged grief disorder, which I don't necessarily want to get into. I had just been told that you might ask me about. So I only mentioned it in case you had wanted to, but it's of your mind. I actually think it would be worth dwelling on that for a moment or two. What is prolonged grief disorder? So this is a newer term, the DSM-V, the revised edition, has taken a diagnosis of prolonged grief and incorporated into one of the things that we can identify in people who seek help. I have been a part of this process of trying to understand this very small group of people for a very long time I've been trying to understand them. There is about one in ten or one in 20 people who just don't have the typical response to grief, where usually, you know, in that trajectory we were talking about, you can see that the frequency and intensity of grief, it declines over time without ever going away, right? But there's this other group of people. You can see it right in the data. It just doesn't change. They're just having the same frequency and intensity of grief over time. And it means that they're not able to function very well in their day to day life. What I think is really important, people are often hung up on this word disorder. Anything in the DSM is considered a disorder, right? So it's PTSD. It's post traumatic stress disorder. It's major depressive disorder. They're all disorders. What I think it means is we now have an opportunity because we know we have psychotherapy that when we apply that when we offer that to people who've had this experience for years even, that they can get back on the natural trajectory of grieving. And that to me is the most important reason to be able to identify them. And also because, as I said before, our training for our clinicians, our psychiatrists and psychologists in the world has never included training about grief. So now they have to learn about it, right? It's a part of the medical canon. It means that they have to understand what typical grief looks like. What acute grief looks like so that they can make a distinction with these very small group of people. And we don't even begin to think about whether it's complicated grief or prolonged grief disorder, which is the newer term. We don't even begin to think about it until a year after the death. Before that, people are kind of all over the place. Like I said, it's not a linear process. But at that point, we really see the separation. We can really see these are people who are on a grieving trajectory and these are people who are just not changing over time. To me, that feels like a moment to intervene. And it is different from depression, so we know that from really elegant research that's been done. For example, if you give antidepressants to a person who has prolonged grief disorder, had to depressants don't help with yearning. You know, yearning is the core. Now, if they have depression as well, which you can, right? You could have both just like you can have depression and anxiety. Antidepressants can help with depressive symptoms. But as a neuroscientist, that makes me aware that there are probably different neurobiological processes going on here with depression with grief with anxiety and our best frontline treatment, the treatment that we know really works is a psychotherapy for prolonged grief. It can really help people get back on that change over time trajectory. I'm glad we touched on that. And just for the uninitiated remind us what DSM stands for? Diagnostic and statistical manual. Final question. Please, if you don't mind, plug your book. So the book, the grieving brain, it has the subtitle, the surprising science of how we've learned from love and loss. And I think people reading the book will really see the ways that love gets encoded in the brain and what that means for how we understand loss as it's encoded in the brain. If they want to learn more about it, they can go to Mary Frances O'Connor dot com and see the book there. And the other research that I've been doing in the academic world and on Twitter, I'm doctor MFA. So I hope to see many of you there and I hope that you'll be interested to apply things to your own life. Okay, doctor MFA, thanks for coming on. Thanks so much. Thanks again to Mary Francis, O'Connor. Thank you as well to all the people who work so hard on this.

"Seriously I didn't even watch it yesterday. You continue to watch. Listen, we can't afford to lose anymore. Viewers at all. Kim is in North Carolina. Hello, Kim. Hi, pal. How are you doing today? We are doing great. Thank you. I love your show this but 5th time I've come. But what I want to do around day samber when the bowel games and I was in the airport power have a contest and see who the alpha dog is. Well, it's been happening on your show. I love it. So Kim, how would you rank the alpha dogs on the show? And I don't know. How would you write them? Well, it's one of those things that changes every couple of minutes. But that to me is what separates the show from other shows. It's always evolving. Marvin is in Atlanta. Hello, Marvin. What's going on, Paul? Hey there. Big fan. I just am a big fan of your period, man. I'm very much ESPN fanatic, man. I was just appreciated how you straight shoes. Just tell her how it is. I always appreciated it. So I moved out to Atlanta a couple of months ago, I'm actually from North Carolina. So I was listening to the guy earlier they called an ass with the ACC have to do to be as good as the NCC. And I'm 39. So I pretty much got locked in the sports and football when I was in the 90s, but since I was younger, the ACC ain't never been like a good football conference. It's always dominated by one team. I know you recall back in the early 90s. And the Bobby Valentine dominated. So if you looked at it Marvin and said, what's the problem with the ACC? I would start with Florida state. In the 90s, Florida state was at the epicenter of college football and now it's an absolute laughing stock. And I think they have Florida state and maybe like a two year window when Virginia was pretty good with tiki ball because they were one of the first teams to actually start a beating Florida state back then. But you had Florida state in Miami. I don't know if Miami, I don't think Miami was in the ACC yet. They came here. But you know football you look at the rosters of those 90s teams at Miami and Florida state. I mean, we're talking about some of the greatest players all the way up until the 2000s. We're talking about some of the greatest college football players of all time. Of all time. And in the early 90s, everybody in North Carolina 'cause that was AC she got you. Everybody was Florida state fans. So I was always the ultimate contrarian. So I started like a Florida gator. So I'm a SEC guy that's from North Carolina. We're in Carolina, did you grow up? Oh, Riley? Yeah. And people misunderstand me. I think the ACC plays a good brand of football, but it's just not the same. And you grew up, what did you have three schools within ten miles of you? So you know it better than I do. Yeah, and it was just that's a basketball state. So for North Carolina it's like everybody in North Carolina was Florida state fair. I ended up liking the Florida Gators. But even if you look at the SEC when you look at teams where the Florida auburn LSU Alabama is multiple things when the championship and the SEC, you got Clemson recently, Florida state back then, but nobody else was winning the titles and everything. Since Florida state last won a title, Clemson won what three years ago, but you've had one ACC school since 2014 when a title, Alabama has won what two different three titles since then, Georgia has won one. LSU has won one. I mean, that's one of the things. And I don't know. I mean, I think the ACC is competitive, but when you were growing up, I mean, the action you're right. It was duke North Carolina. It wasn't NC state North Carolina and football, was it? I didn't even watch ACC football. I watched a Florida because you remember Florida Florida state in the 90s was major. That was like a major game. And really Florida state Miami were probably the I would include Tennessee Florida as well when Peyton Manning was there. Hey, call again, Sue Marvin, really good to hear from you. We have a couple of minutes remaining. Stick around. We have one more guest. Thank you for listening to the.

"In your wallet? Terms apply, see Capital One dot com slash bank, Capital One NA member FDIC. And squirrel is up next. Good afternoon squirrel. And thank you for taking my call. And a lot of people compare your show to a soap opera, which is kind of true in a lot of comparisons. I do think so. Not a good soap opera, but it's so proper. We can be but there's a lot of storylines that go on and repeat it. I was telling my wife about the Jim Casey and I just got home from work and I was talking about this. Good on the drive in. And she's not a big fan of Jim. I don't know if you knew that or not. I made a wild guess that she wasn't, because she knew this was no joke. If I'm never told her that Jim and I have had a few conversations last summer. And if she knew that I had three or four conversations with him, she would she would literally have me committed and I'm not joking when I say that I'm not making a joke. She dislikes him that much. She said he makes her skin crawl for some reason. But it's hard to do. I know that. But I was surprised to hear that Kay was married. I didn't see that coming. Not that I know all that much, but I've never detected a spouse anywhere near her. If you notice on Valentine's Day, she didn't mention it. Yeah, she shouted a little bit. The same lady that I got into that she's been married in the last two days. Yeah, I don't know, like I said, maybe there's some issues there. I don't know, but I hope she did have a happy Valentine's Day. And I've seen awfully excited to talk to you. She was eating chicken when she answered when you had former classmates at Tennessee. Beth. Wow. And she's from the tri cities. Yes. Kingsport. Those trust cities, girls are crazy. You know that? Yeah, no. I think it was pretty obvious. I knew one pretty well. You need to be. You need to do like a segment of the ladies of band bombs. You know what I mean? You know, the ones you have currently. Most of them are seen again. What does that say? The ones you have currently in the one that you discarded tossed off and discarded along the way. You know what I mean? I told you this before squirrel there. There was a moment or two in time that I was on the verge of taking a job in Bristol, Tennessee and who was going to be a lifer for the atrocities. They ran me out of Johnson City after a year too. So but I enjoyed my time. In my senior year, being interviewed at that time, I think it was I'm not sure if it was on the Virginia or Tennessee line. It goes right down the street. Yeah, I thought to myself, you know what? If I spent my entire life covering the balls, it would be a pretty good life. I believe that at the time. And here I am. Still talking about the Tennessee balls. I ran with a girl from Bristol, Virginia. Tennessee. And I said, girls in that part of the country, a lot of fun. Thank you for taking my call. Thank you. Pat is in Georgia. Heli pat. Hello, pal, I guess I'm one of the fan bomb girls now. I think you are. Well. Ladies are always going. Well, I had decided I was watching the show anymore. I didn't want yesterday. I can't sell my Twitter account and darned if the TV didn't get turned on to your program and there's algae talking about me. Yeah, I think you talked about by her. Then we had the famous. I didn't hear her. I just heard alge because I hadn't turned it on. I sit down. Somewhere else today. You missed your friend cable. Oh my goodness, I'm miss Kelly darn. I hate that. Yeah, I know how close you can kick off. All right. Anyway, but anyway, I had decided I wasn't watching your program anymore. Twitter, everything. As a consumer here, why would you not watch our show? Well, well, in the past, you've made fun of me. Well, I do apologize for that. Well, you know, when you made fun of me, don't you? You remember? I do not. Well, when you ask me questions and I said, nobody wants to hear about me. And so then you said, yes. So I told you and then you made fun of me because you were defending K well. You kind of, I've kind of weaned myself off for K so I'm looking for another Georgia woman right now. I'm on the rebound, pat, give me a break. Well, I May or you too. This is just a television show. I don't think anything that we should hear is law or settled law. But yeah, Kate and I had a bit of a bit like your K and I had a spat today. So we're on the rocks. Oh dear. We'll see, I miss that because like I said, I wasn't going to watch your program anymore, but gosh, if that happened then I'll watch it again. Well, the cooking channel right now. K for saying what I did the other day. I was apologized to pat not to kick. Well, yeah, I was just kidding, I got to get K out of my mind. I'm so upset. Yes, you did. That is bad. By the way, so that is one of the rules of the road when you're apologizing to a woman try to get her name. You are so right. So you come home and your friend, your spouse, whatever things you've been with someone else and your spouse's name is pat. And I'm in that you've been accused of being with his K and you say, okay, I am sorry. That will not work. No, it would not work at all. Anyway, I guess I'll watch your present again, but I was kind of shocked when I heard augie talking about me. And then lo and behold, okay, had been on and I didn't even know it because that seriously I didn't even watch it yesterday. You continue to watch. Listen, we can't afford to lose anymore. Viewers at all. Kim is in North Carolina. Hello, Kim. Hi, pal. How are you doing today? We are doing great. Thank you..

You should be demanding, demanding answers, demanding transparency. It's not a laughing matter. Because then the socialists golden one, right? Oh, I can just print you more money. You'll be my slave. I'm not talking black, white Asian, anybody that buys into the banking monopoly is a slave. You are a slave. It doesn't seem like it because you can go down to the store and you can slow buy a candy bar or a chug a milk or whatever may be a pasta salad. Nobody and all that microchip now are getting really far up. They really far off base. Look at ID 2020. Look at quantum dot tattoo. Look, the article that this woman had in Ireland sent me, took her three years to write. I put it up on medium and within two hours. The whole article. 15 pages. Taken down and the account is abolished. Why? Because the information she had researched is against it's against someone else's best interest. So whoever's owning medium Microsoft is against their best interests. It's exposing science, exposing fact its exposing credible research.

Yeah, of course they religious William Penn who were religious. But I don't. Because I approach it from a platform of religious freedom. And like I said, I don't care what your religion is.

"It's not an offense. It's not chargeable. Is that what I do? Get that right. There's a price tag now on these certain crimes. You know, I laugh, but it's just not a lot. This is not a laughing issue, folks. If you want socialism, go to socialist country. I mean, yeah, yeah. I'm gonna draw the line there. Okay? Go to a socialist country. Go learn to cheat. Go learn Chinese. Go learn Russia. Go live in a socialist. If you listen to the work, if you follow the work that I've been doing, probably the greatest thing you could do right now shift gears for yourself and remember why the country was started. Go back, go back to the roots of all the money, right? So in 2016, I'm exposed to Zika virus, my best friend is sago, listen to this. Argument of the city hall, I said, wow, why are all these people irate? Why they screaming? Why is it that a small group of people is dictating what they're going to be inhaling? And that's how it started with me. And then I was led to the banking fraud through this guy shut. That's how it all began. And then holy cow, I take 5 years of a complete educational research. I mean, outside of doing these shows and then my 9 to 5, every waking hour, I spent, I discover the fraud. The truth. I dig it up. So I can give it to you so I can deliver it to you. Why? Because as I said last hour, I'm doing this, I'm doing this for myself just as much as I'm doing it for you because I appreciate the freedoms and liberties that I grew up in that I enjoy that. I'm curly like John said he speak your mind, speak out. He just said that. The federal and former former federal prosecutor just said that to you, just said speak out. Don't be shy. Don't be afraid. Speak your mind. So if you approach it from, okay, well, the country was founded upon. Kilograms, leaving a tyrannic religious order, yes. So seeking freedom to practice religion freely, you know, you may take this for granted. The fact that you may be your Catholic listening to this or maybe you are Jewish listening to this. Or maybe you is, you are a Buddhist. You know, I don't know, I don't care what your religion is. Frankly, I don't care. Why don't I care because you're likely living in a peaceful manner and you respect other people's religions as other people respect yours? Okay, so yeah, fine. There's an intricate thread. There's an intricate management of how that integrates stick government. But it works pretty good so far. For almost 250 years, it's pretty good. The fact that matters government should be giving you freedom of religion, but okay, hold on a second. So if you approach things, if you approach what's happening to the United States today, from a theological, not theoretical, a theological perspective, then you start to follow some of these ancient money lines. These old money lines whereas anything over a hundred years of ancient, I don't know what the definition is..

"Angrier you get on your show. And the more you make your audience angry, then the more eyeballs you're gonna keep. You may not keep as many as Fox News, but you're going to keep them and you're going to be able to monetize them and you're going to make a healthy profit. Nobody's worried about the profitability. Of any of the major news networks. And so we have it's very easy. And so they perpetuate themselves. Think about it. If you're a young journalist getting out of school, you know that you can't go you can't get a job if you're going to in any way portray yourself as a middle of the road or a conservative, you know, a traditional liberal, I would say, free market type of person. So you're not going to get that job. So this is self selection process. And you're considered good. Oh, she's good. He's good. If you have the right slant on things. And you could take any story and put the right slan on. And if you do that, or you're a genius, you know? If you can take the most mundane problem of American lives of most mundane stress and if you can relate to climate change, boy, there you are. I mean, my gosh, this is happy, because if climate change, you name something that doesn't come from climate change, you know. And so what wonderful journalists say are that they figured out that running those are the results of climate change and people's anxiety, well, that's climate change. You know, gee, you name it. Species are changing. Well, you know, throughout since the ice age, this has happened. I mean, there's been climate variability, but now it's a beautiful thing about climate change is skews left. The only way to be able to climate change is to go very lefty and have sort of associates attitude on things. And that's how it all started.

"He says he said over three years ago, he said that this was the remaining element of freedom of speech in America. It's not exactly what he said, but something that nature, it's on my website. Why is it that mainstream media has become tainted in this regard? What are your views? You know you're going back to The Washington Post and the work that they were doing in the Watergate and they cover up. Why is it have we just allowed mainstream media to become these kind of greedy monsters, it just kind of sell their own narratives or what's going on there in your view? Well that some of the remember, this whole thing started with Watergate and for years, everybody thought, first of all, all journalists generally come, people out of the morally colleges tend to come out as liberal style over time that would become more conservative, but so our schools, especially mainly have professors, you know, from the 1960s who have the ideas that I talked about earlier, like. Herbert Marcus liberating tolerance and so forth. And solo linsky. And so you have a liberal bias is one thing that's happening. And then what we have also is that, you know, these things are run out of Manhattan, they're run out of the medias run out of one of the bluest of the blue cities. And the other media center of course is Los Angeles. And that's a very blue city and of course San Francisco is very influential in the tech. So you have a certain people as a certain mindset that are running these things and they have a view of life and they don't understand the rest of the country. That's really pretty clear. They understand it at any time. So we have and also if you have if you're one of the big networks, you haven't a monopoly. That monopoly at least an oligopoly and your advantage is not going away. So even if you're CNN and you're losing to Fox, say, you're still getting a pretty healthy chunk of viewers..

"Get a thousand bucks. Do your home free. Why not do it? The profit motive prevails. So there is no deterrence in part of the law enforcement of deterrence. So we have none here. So the reason I say this is it feeds into our story about Kyle rittenhouse. It's now that that's okay. It's okay to destroy cities. I mean, has major media really spoken up about the burning of all these cities. What's really, come on, I know. People are upset about George Floyd, but it wasn't. A lot of these riots were not spontaneous at all. They were there are many orchestrating features. Let's put it that way. And, you know, and of course, you know, there wasn't an Apple store that remained untouched during those riots or a target or whatever you name your store. They all got cleaned out. So but the people that are supposed to be curating public opinion and really saying the right things are not doing it, and that's the media. It seems to say tell people to signal. That this is okay. So the left is always talking about dog was anything any conservative or middle of the road people say that it can possibly be construed as being anti black or conservative is called the dog whistle. You know, you're not really saying anything racist, but boy, we're looking at it as racist. Well, you talked about dog whistles. You look at CNN or CNN or MSNBC and they're issuing dog whistles all the time saying, it's okay to do this. These are nice people that are burning these cities and don't call them rioters. These are peaceful protesters who are a little bit of just a few people are bad and a little this and that is that I'm wrong. And okay, so a city burned down. What the heck? That's okay. Employees isn't it terrible if Trump calls out the National Guard? Well, you know, forget about Trump whether you like him or hate him. I mean, the question is, is are these people giving dog whistles saying dash? All of this that you're doing is okay. As long as you've got a racial justice motive, then it's okay to do whatever you want. And so if you're in that environment and you're an impressionable young kid, you're going to say, hey, this is okay. You know, and it's almost noble of me. It's almost like I'm Martin Luther King. I'm going to go rob a store. Well, you know, we've gone a long way and it's a backward way in our thoughts about achieving achieving opportunity for people in this country. We're starting to go backwards. Yeah, it is, and it's in an opposite direction now it seems instances now the white male is the prosecuted persecuted, rather Zack Voorhees is somebody that I've worked with in the past year, he's a whistleblower for Google. But he's spoken a little bit about the changes there in Northern California and San Francisco was not aware and for listeners. Listeners should be identifying that the current administration. You've got Kamala Harris. And certainly Nancy Pelosi that's been involved in four administrations since I think the late 90s and maybe wrong. This is San Francisco culture..

You're supposed to and you don't have nobody had phones until it got no sweat. You know, what are you supposed to do? Say, hey, excuse me, before you shoot me, I'd like to go make a call to the police. It's going to take you a week to get into town to get to sheriff. Do you mind waiting? No, you picked up your shotgun. You said get out of here. That's what you do. And we have a right to defend ourselves. We have a right to defend our property. I'm not big. I'm not a big gun guy, but you know things got unruly enough and they're getting very unruly in the San Francisco area, by the way. You know, my advanced age, I may have to go out and start taking some weapons safety lessons and so forth because it's very, very scary, what's happening? I don't know if you've been reading the papers at all about San Francisco, but the whole Law & Order system has broken down. And you can't, you're not safe to park the car on a nice street and a nice part of San Francisco. That car is going to get broken in soon and then a second. And if you have a store, watch out for people just coming up pulling up their cars coming in and emptying your store. You know, so they've had some chilling, chilling events in the very tiniest parts of San Francisco. And what's even more chilling, it's kind of like we're seeing a coronavirus hop from one place to another. There's a lovely suburb on the east bay named Walnut Creek, which has some tremendous and you have a four one 5 area code. I know you're from the area. You said you lived here. But walnuts freaked this turned into a very sort of upscale place with a good place for start of the big regional shopping centers. And so you have some very nice stores there. While the other day and I don't know, it might have been a Nordstrom. I think it was in Nordstrom's and Walnut Creek. 80 people pulled up in a spontaneous spontaneous a plan the fact. And they came in together, jumped out of the car had various weapons of wisdom like crowbars and this and that. And ran into the store in an organized fashion looted it and came out and get in their car and buzzed away. There was a similar thing happening on the Union Square in San Francisco. In each case they've caught a few of the people. But up to this point in San Francisco, they haven't been they have not been charging people for stealing less than a $1000 a piece. So it is emboldened people and they realize there's just a very easy money to just go get a chance at any time. You can break into a car and.

"And how he should move forward, regarding defamation. If you start off with the easy question first, which is set up Kyle is going to be a very rich man, very soon, and this is dead bang. Some of the stuff that was said about him was just factually untrue. You can give any opinion you want and you're not subject to defamation. But if you make a factual statement about somebody, oh, he was cut he left northern Illinois with a weapon intending to kill people. No? He didn't do that. He's a racist. He showed anti black price. No, he didn't. He was very much in favor of ALM. Not their tactics, but very much in favor of the ends and goals of their organization and was very respectful to it. There are so many different lies that we're told. He's going to get wealthy. Now, of course, I think they felt the prosecution felt just to quell any more civil disturbances once rittenhouse got shot people. They almost felt they had to. Everybody was running scared. And what I'll say is this. We're getting very much to a place that we were in America where people were afraid to acquit black people on trial that everybody wanted to race to convict black people, especially in the south, especially in the late 1800s and so forth. And that's well known. And the jury's got intimidated and they're afraid to issue an acquittal of black people. And now we have just the reverse thing happened. And it's just neither scenario is good for America where we're looking at people on the basis of telling their skin and not who they are, not as individuals with rights that come from their divine human nature. So I really feel terrible about it. I think once again, we talked about the media, much of this is said by the medium. So the media jumps on this story. They've got their story and they get the story before they get the facts. Now they get the facts, the facts don't matter. And so all of a sudden, you know, we have all these things being made up and people tend to and that's where they're getting in trouble and decimation. They come up with their story. They need to sustain it. And so it becomes more than just opinion. They have to justify it with facts. And then they get the facts wrong. So we have an example here..

"So we have big tech and big tech is a very much a beneficiary of some of the policies of progressive government and unlike the regular small business men to make it driven out of business go up. But that is not true of big tech big tech and big finance. Make a lot of money from progressive policy. So we're seeing today the big tech is on the side of big media and they're all doing this together. They're all interested in the same goal and they do a good job from their perspective of putting their fellows. Yeah, and it seems that it seems that the culture that the DNC has adapted is lockstep with that of big tech in 2021. Do you see that as well? Oh, sure. I mean, I'm here at the Bay Area and I'm probably 90% of the tech employees are left leaning. And some of that is because their business does not depend upon normal supply demand like so many other businesses. Throughout our history, businesses tend to be conservative, but once you get into businesses like the entertainment or tech, where your profitability is not necessarily tied to regular factors of supply and demand costs of materials, so forth, and so on. You know, you tend to be more progressive and less especially if your markets are in China, for example, so I think we see that the DNC is tied to big media's tied to big tech. So that's the triumvirate. And now what we get in Russia team, we get people who are wise enough, FBI officials are wise enough to know they can never go wrong with the media, as long as they're on the left side of things. So that's James Comey in his group. And of course, they have to double incentives of knowing that Hillary's been a win in 2016. So they put their sum on the scale. Much of it using the media, much of it using leaks to help them out to justify their ambitions. And so this is a whole and so what happened is Donald Trump simply upset the apple card. Nobody including Trump thought he's going to win. And so lo and behold, now they get their action scrutinized and very luckily they have delays because of both the Mueller investigation and the COVID deal so now it's just now that people are being held accountable for really blatant dishonesty and. Rushing gate. So, you know, as Winston Churchill said, you know, lies still halfway around the world before truth gets its pants on. And that's what we've got here. Interesting. Yeah, San Francisco is a great place and some listeners may know this, but I actually lived in that city for 8 years, wonderful city to live in.

"Yeah, sorry. Sorry about that. We must have lost each other, but of course I am on this winding road. But in any case, I began suspecting that perhaps the post was covering up in a very. Chunky effort and this is the kind of personality I am. I got all 3000 articles of the post published during the two year period of analyzed them, went through transcripts of hearings went through FBI reports, all the evidence that I could get and also tried to figure out what the post knew, but it didn't know what was there for it to know. And I came to the conclusion that they had intentionally covered up the real truth about Watergate. And the way I see it connecting to today's journalism is that I think in a way that the post started out this way, they wanted to protect the DNC. They're very close to the DNC and the Democratic National Committee. Which would not cover itself as glorious as to what they were doing. At the time. So they probably just started out thinking, well, what did you still get some details? Well, as it turns out, they got further and further into it. And as they got further into it, they were more and more successful and hooking this whole thing on to Nixon. Let's White House shared some blame for this. Some minor minor figures, the top people didn't know this should happen. But but besides that, the CIA was involved and the DNC was engaging in a referral program of how to tap into eager young women down the street. And that's what everybody was listening to what had nothing to do with the campaign. It had to do with the good old age old story of men and women. So I came to the conclusion that the post and I document this pretty thoroughly like a lawyer should. And I think I make my case that's close to intentionally covered up the truth about Watergate..

Why Deadhead Logs Are So Rare and Valuable (w/ Kevin OConnor) and Why Traveling Makes You Tired
"When you think about buried treasure. You probably don't think about trees ends lumber and yet dead logs are sought after because they could make you rich if you're willing to risk your life for them today to share the story is Kevin O'Connor who set of the Emmy me winning home improvement series this old house. He just wrapped the first season of his new podcast clear story which sheds light on the surprising stories behind our homes and today Kevin joins us with a brief history of dead head logs. Starting with what happened when European colonists I arrived in America hundreds of years ago when when the colonists I got here they were looking for resources and there were abundant resources. It was Virgin growth forest here in this continent Literally a billion acres of this continent of this country covered in trees and for better for worse we harvested them pretty aggressively throughout the seventeen and eighteen hundreds And in the process we took some magnificent supplies eastern white pines signs that were two hundred feet tall straight as an arrow that had been growing for one hundred years and were forty feet around we harvested them in mass those northern northern forests of Minnesota that we ship down the Great Lakes. We clear cut him. We cleaned MINNESOTA. We clear. Cut Him in Maine New Hampshire and in that process because of the era we would cut the trees down in the winter when the ground was frozen and then we get an ox to pull them across a C and snowy paths. Because how else would you move them through the mud and dirt did it. When the ground was slippery yes stack them up on the banks of rivers which were frozen but when the spring came and the snow melted and the rivers rose? You could float the logs from MINNESOTA DOWN TO CHICAGO OR FROM MAINE DOWN TO BOSTON and float him right up to the mills which were along rivers. You'd bring him in chop them up. And it was the heyday of timbering and logging in this this country. And while millions of these things made it from the forest to the mills thousands or hundreds of thousands got stuck along the way and they went to the bottom of Rivers rivers and is a weird thing. That happens when a piece of wood. Big Tree full-size goes to the bottom of a river. It is preserved like like I don't know what in from out of the died a frog and formaldehyde for science there preserved perfectly and they sit there for hundreds of years and now with the virgin forests. All gone all all this Beautiful slow growth timber all gone. There's only one place to get. It gets at the bottom of rivers and their guys who put on snorkel gear scuba gear and they will dive down into black murky rivers. They will literally list risk their lives and we talked to guys who get pinned under logs that way hundreds of pounds or rushed to the hospital because they got bit by poisonous trying to get this stuff but when they get it it's treasure they bring it up and it's beautiful and it could be five hundred or a thousand or two thousand years old and when you slice into it you're the first person to ever use it and see it and it's remarkable so it's rare it's coveted did and if you can find it you can sell it for a whole bunch of Dow because people really really want. Okay so what makes this stuff. So valuable depends on who you ask. I think if you talked to norm Abram who was our master carpenter on a shell legendary carpenter He will tell you it was the beautiful all in unique color of it and also the stability you know if the tree grew for five hundred years in the forest it grew very slowly slowly and we know that means that the rings are closer together which means the rain is tighter and that gives the woods stability and it's very difficult today because things go very fast and we force it and we farm it so he will tell you. It's that unique color the beauty as well as stability. I would argue with them a little a bit. Those things certainly are incredibly important but I think today the most important thing is it has story if you can sit there in your house talking to a guest or friend or even if you had to sell the idea to your spouse and you can point to this thing and say that lumber. I was here when Christopher Columbus showed up it went to the bottom of a river at the heyday of the logging industry. In this country it was was pulled up by a crazy guy a scuba tank and then we sliced through the Cyprus and Carter all the way up here to put it in the floor of this house you got yourself a story and you got yourself just a an invaluable thing. That's what our houses are there. Things that make us feel comfortable. They are the things that we like to show off. There are things that we like to share in that it it just it checks all the boxes right. You're making me really want one. Don't you want one. I could put you into a thousand year old piece of Cypress for eighty bucks a board foot. I'll get back to you on that. That would again. That was Kevin O'Connor his new podcast is called clear story and all ten episodes of the first season are available for you to listen to right now. Find Clear history wherever you listen to podcasts or look for Lincoln. Today's show notes. We got a listener question from Samuel in London. Who Asks? WHAT DO I get super tired after extremely only long car trips or train writes most of the time? I'm just sitting down doing nothing or sleeping but I still always become super tired. Can you please explain. Why Great Question Samuel L. as someone who falls asleep almost immediately on any long trip I definitely know where you're coming from? Samuel there are a lot of elements at play when you travel the can add up to that that sleepy feeling the biggest though is boredom. I mean whether you're in a plane train or automobile. There's not a whole lot to keep you occupied on a long trip. A study study in two thousand seventeen found that the same part of the brain. That's responsible for motivation can also produce sleep so when there's nothing particularly motivating around. We tend to get sleepy. Maybe that part of the brain is called the nucleus accumbens and it's packed with receptors for tiredness triggering molecule called a denizen both caffeine and motivating stimuli stimuli can interfere with these receptors. And keep you from getting sleepy but without either of those. It's a one-way ticket to snooze. Ville studies have also found that the gentle vibrations nations of a vehicle or also. Really good lulling us to sleep. Although scientists aren't really sure why a twenty eighteen study from Australia had people drive in a virtual oh simulator that was set up on a vibration platform. It only took fifteen minutes on a low vibration for the participants to show signs of drowsiness and by thirty minutes in staying alert took significant effort when it comes to staying awake on route the relaxing Of the engine isn't doing you any favors. And of course they're all the little things things on traveled as you probably wake up earlier than normal eat less than nourishing food generally send your normal routines out of whack. You also may be dehydrated whether from recirculated air in a plane or just forgetting to drink water in general and studies suggest that can make you sluggish. So what should you do about it. Honestly take a nap up. But if you'd rather stay alert here are a few things to try. Talk to your travel buddies to keep your mind. Active drink caffeine too full your identity and receptors. Just make sure sure to follow it with lots and lots of water and try your best to eat healthy meals so you don't have a food coma or sugar crash to make things even worse.
