"And one day he came to one of my colleagues, and he peeled off a stack of $100 bills. And he said, go down to the jewelry store down the street and buy me some gold coins. I thousand dollar gold coins. And he came back and this guy with a group of friends sat there at the Pacific Ocean skipping the gold coins to see how far they could go. And I remember thinking, I was 21 at the time. And I remember watching this thinking like, how long can this last? And it was probably 10 years later that I said, what's this guy up to? And I Googled his name, and sure enough, he went bankrupt. He went, his company went out of business. And it was like, when I saw the headline, he was like, of course, of course, this guy. So to me, it was It was always so interesting that he was so smart. He was an entrepreneur who made a lot of his He's built parts for satellites, and he had a patent that's in every Wi Fi device. Like he was such a Technically, but his relationship with money was so broken, and so bad. So that was like, doesn't it matter how smart you are. It's not about like what your IQ is. If your behavior with money is wrong, you're done, it's out. And there's a flip side of that is true, too, which is that some people who are not that intelligent by their their test scores or whatever, but they have a great behavior with money can do spectacular overtime. I'm probably taking the wrong lesson from away this anecdote. But did anyone go after the coin? For all I know, they're still there. All later right. today, Later Joe, this is this is a this is good to know. So this is, you know, obviously, there are gonna be individuals who maybe Maybe don't have a high income, but do a good job of accumulating savings over years, or people have massive incomes and blow all it, kinds of things. You know, you always hear these other stories about cohorts of people who went through something together, like people who came out of the Great Depression. And then they like, you know, were like hoarders or something something like that, or people who came out of whatever it is, is that true? People say that all the time, or people experience like the inflation in Weimar, Germany and support. Like when you in your research, when you read a ton like, of does that history, seem to be a real thing? Yeah, definitely. I think every generation experiences the economy in their own unique way. And and those experiences, particularly what you experienced in your teens and 20s, like your formative years where you're starting to pay attention to the economy, really sticks with you. Everyone has seen or probably heard of the studies about the generation that went through the Great Depression. And then right after that that is World War Two. So that was 15 years of hell. And those people coming out of it like that stayed with them forever. there have And been academics who have measured how that impacted them. They're very scared of debt, didn't want to invest in the stock market, way more so even when you talk about people in former Germany or the people who went through World War Two in Germany or in France or in Russia. Those people were completely scarred economically for the rest of their lives. And more recently, all three of us became young adults in the early 2000s. So for me, 9 -11 was the first adult big event. And then so that was massive. And I think for our parents' generation, who were adults in the 1990s, when things were so, at least in relative terms, calm, stable, not prosperous, just economically but politically and geopolitically, we're like so solid. And there's a recession or there's a hiccup at 94 and 98. But for most people, that was like, unless you were a bond trader, it didn't matter. The 90s were great. 9 -11 was like, oh, wow, like, we really got knocked down here. But that was a one -time event. Like, America is still as strong as it's ever been. And then 2008, it was like, oh, we got knocked down again, like, two times in the last eight years. That's pretty bad. And then COVID in 2020, it's like, the world broke again. Like, three times in 20 years, the world has broken in the United States. And I think that is like, what's the quote? Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice. Now that people have been fooled, so to speak, three times in 20 years, I think we now, our believes Our generation that the world breaks every 5 -10 years. And I think that's the truth. I think the previous generation that was America strong and stable and nothing happens, that was the anomaly. And I think we're a more pessimistic generation because next, of it.

Nike's Move to 'Erase' Women
"And here we go again, another company trying to erase women, Nike. Is the guilty one this time? The athletic shoemaker has become the latest to sign up Dylan Mulvaney, a transgender who just celebrated his 365th day as a quote girl to join their marketing team and help push their products. We're going to talk about that. Plus, more military troubles, certainly bubbling up. A Chinese aircraft carrier has been seen sailing in the Pacific Ocean waters just about a 186 miles south of Japan, its hanging out near Taiwan, hello, welcome to the Trish Regan show. I am portions of the program where I brought you by the legacy p.m. investments dot com. We are increasingly losing our position in the world, which is truly troublesome. At a time when China and Russia are trying to seemingly team up against the U.S., replace the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency. It's like nobody wants to recognize the real problems instead they're focused on nonsense like, okay, let's all celebrate transgenders and go buy Nike shoes and Bud Light because there's a new spokesperson in town. Look, I'm just going to say something. You know, I get nothing against the guy or girl or whatever he wants to call himself really and truly. But it doesn't need to be in our faces this way in a way that, frankly, especially when you're trying to sell a sports bra is kind of thumbing your nose at every woman out there. And our body parts mind you, because I don't think he's fully finished the transition. I mean, take a look, you tell me. I don't think there's anything to hold up. It really is. Mocking women. They're trying to erase femininity, trying to erase what it means to be female. What it means to be a woman, something that we should all be, us women, very, very proud of. You know, there's an athlete, a college athlete, well known Riley gaines, who's gotten very odd spoken about this. And she said sort of, you know what? This is sending a really, really bad message. It's sending a bad message to all girls and to all women that somehow men can do everything better. Than women and girls. She also spoke with the daily mail daily mail dot com saying that Nike was making a quote sad mockery of what being a woman entails by recruiting Mulvaney to promote its women's sportswear line and you know what she's right. It's motivated by money. You see, because Nike wants to prove to all those people in Washington, D.C., all those people in The White House that they got it, right? They're with the program. They're part of this whole new movement. And so this is their way of doing so. Same as Anheuser Busch. By the way, a few people are standing up to this. Not just the college swimmer there, Riley gains but Travis trit, who is a famous well-known excellent artist, country music artist. I actually listened to a lot of his songs. He came out and said, you know what, I'm going to cancel all Anheuser Busch, sponsorship on my tour. On my country music tour, because he didn't believe in the values that they were promoting by hiring Mulvaney. You also had Kid Rock. I think taking a few shots literally a case of Bud Light. So people aren't happy. This all comes, right? As the country music industry came under fire for its award ceremony, where they had a number of drag queens on stage, and people were like, wait a second, isn't this supposed to be family entertainment? Well, family entertainment these days happens to be that. Because the left wants it to be. And so some people are trying to push back. Again, I get Steve dais on the topic, joining us momentarily, but before I get to that, The White House just came out and released its review of what happened in Afghanistan, which we all know was a complete disaster. I'm not saying that we shouldn't have gotten out. But we didn't need to do it in the chaotic way that we did. That was very, very clear. Well, The White House is admitting, you know, it didn't go quite as planned, but it's interesting how, it becomes a blame game. This is what they do. You see, this is what politicians do, and they're now blaming president Trump and his administration for their exit out of Afghanistan. I mean, it gets very creative here. Let me share with you what the document says. President Biden's choices for how to execute withdrawal from Afghanistan were severely constrained by conditions created by his predecessor. No, no, no, no, no. You see, the deal is, guys, you didn't actually have to get out right away. There was no ticking time bomb on that. I know the plan was to eventually get out, but you didn't have to do it right before the 20th anniversary of 9 11, although we know that was what you wanted to do.

What Is Going on in El Salvador?
"Going on in El Salvador El Salvador's out of country we talk about a lot, unfortunately, the only reason we usually talk about El Salvador is the criminals that are coming from El Salvador that are coming into our country, but El Salvador is deciding to take things into their own hands. El Salvador borders the north Pacific Ocean. It is obviously in Central America, borders Honduras and Guatemala. And it's a small country, all things being equal, but it's also a very violent country. In fact, unfortunately, El Salvador, most Americans, if they were to think of El Salvador, they would think of El Salvador as being a violent, a viciously violent gang infested country. But I think this is worthy of noting of how El Salvador has decided to take things into their own hands and be leaders. So the new president of El Salvador, in fact, I don't know if he's new. I just think he's good. I don't know how long he's been in office. We'll find out in a second. President bukele has decided to embark on an ambitious new project. As soon as I saw this news story, I thought of a very specific Hollywood reference, of course I thought of Harvey dent in The Dark Knight where you just arrest like 2000 gangbangers at once. He's been president since 2019. So apparently he's been working on this for some time. Let's go to cut 60 Jesse watters who reports on El Salvador's new president moving gang members to do to a new mass mega prison. And is the country safer? Not only is it safer, but crime in El Salvador has dropped so dramatically there has not been a murder in the whole country in a week. What a concept

"Of power on Bloomberg television and radio I'm David Westin Supply chains continue to be a big cause for concern with no end in sight any time soon One of the key choke points has been the port of Los Angeles and our Bloomberg colleague at ludlow is on site at the port with reports throughout the day today on the current state of play So Ed thanks so much for being there Why don't you give us bring us up to speed on what's going on in LA Well the data here David is worrying that we're going in the wrong direction and the answers the question of whether things are improving There are 97 ships at anchor not just in the San Pedro bay outside of the port of LA and Long Beach complex but even tens of miles into the Pacific Ocean and they're waiting on average three weeks to get a birth to unload their containers Three weeks it takes three weeks to cross the Pacific from China in the first place So they're waiting as long And of course when we had that inflation print this morning the issue with these bottlenecks is that the supply is not getting into the United States That's limiting inventory raising prices that are being passed on to the consumer Well there is some good news Genes Roku the ports executive director told us in the last hour that the number of containers that you see behind me sitting idly are down 60% since late October when they started instituting penalties but the rates for those containers are still incredibly high and there's a question on the ship as passing on those costs They up ten times 1000% since the same period in 2019 The issue here the choke point is a shortage of labor on the truck side There are not enough trucks coming into the port despite the port being open 24/7 So we'll have key conversations throughout the day to answer what the path forward is but for now it seems like more hands on deck and needed Yeah we're going to ask some of those questions right now our next guest in the meantime Thank you so much for colleague Bloomberg's Ed ludlow For more on the situation at the port of LA we welcome now James McKenna He is Pacific maritime association CEO Thank you so much mister McKenna for being with us You heard there adds a report on what's going on Are things getting better or not Because it didn't sound like it from edge report Well it depends on how you look at it We have done a lot better in getting inbound cargo imports out of the terminals and to the warehouses So that's the plus We still have a lot of empties on the dock and we're sending empty loaders in to pick them up So everything is focused on continuing to create fluidity in the terminals So address one in a report in the news today which is there may not be quite as many ships container ships just right off the coast there in part because they're changing the way they bring them over They're slowing them down They're keeping on at sea Is that the fact And if so what does that do for us Well it is the fact And it was really brought on when we start when we had that first big winter storm We had too many vessels in anchor and these anchorages were set up when ships were a lot smaller So the concern of the coast guard and the marine exchange where we had huge vessels in a very small space And we needed to evacuate it to about 50% of what was being kept there before because of weather concerns And we wanted to get the vessels out of the basin and out further out to sea where they were not in any danger of running into each other right That they're open seas ability to move maneuver So we brought them out about a 150 miles That was the initial step in changing the queuing process And then we started to think about okay there are two things that the new queuing process is going to do It's going to create a more safe environment and it's going to help with the environmental issues So what we've done is we are now telling the ships that when they leave their last port of call before heading for Southern California they need to contact the marine exchange and let them know they're underway Once they are underway we calculate their speed at an average of 19 nuts However they can go as slow as they want to get to the complex in time to get a birth So they now pretty much one of birth is going to be made available for them So they come across the ocean and much slower pace helping the environment they get to the San Pedro bay in two to three days before their birth is available versus two to three weeks which creates a lot better situation for all the people that live close to the terminals themselves So get into a birthday is the first step but then you have to get the stuff off and hit it under the dock and then ultimately onto some form of transportation Talk to us about the longshore and the stevedore because there's a contract negotiation as I understand going on right now Are we going to have a strike Well there's not a contract negotiations going on right now It will probably start sometime in March maybe early April and expires July 1st So we have now begun the negotiating process itself And I would just say I think both sides are cautiously optimistic that we're going to get through this without any further disruptions One of the biggest issues that you anticipate I don't want you to negotiate right now with me but one of the biggest issues in general is it pay No it is not So will as a result of these negotiations you expect the cost of shipping things go up Well there's a lot of factors that go into the cost of shipping goods right The cost of capital what would it cost to move from one from a to B to C to D But from a purely labor perspective if there's any increase it will be marginal Do we have enough long term in Stevens I know we don't have enough truck drivers We do have enough longshoremen We continue to add to the ranks as needed And I will tell you the long shores charming have done a tremendous job during this very difficult time They show up to work every day They do what they have to The biggest constraint that we have is you can only unload the ship so fast If the cargo is a moving out of the terminals then there's no place to unload the cargo So it's really a hand to mouth situation It's not only the trucking situation but it's also the warehousing The warehousing is really double jeopardy And there's no capacity in the warehouses and they're not enough workers in the warehouses Two questions here if I made two part question number one when do you think will actually be through this if ever and second will there be structural changes that result from what we've experienced Well it's difficult to predict when it will be over I think most of our members are telling us that this will last at least through midyear and maybe through all of 2022 As far as structural changes are concerned you know one of the things that we look at is automating the ports themselves We are in an urban area Our footprint is our footprint as our footprint You can't make it any bigger So what you need to do is you need to densify And to really densify in these facilities and be able to handle twice as many containers in a terminal automation is one of the ways that you can get there So some of our members have gone down the road of automation others will Some won't But it is an option that I'm sure people are looking at as we look to the future Are you looking at changed patterns.

Operation Crossroads: The Test of Atomic Weapons in Naval Warfare
"World war two had just ended the year before in nineteen forty-five while the war was over. The cold war between the united states and the soviet union was just beginning at this particular moment.

Only three atomic bombs had been detonated at this point. The original trinity test explosion in new mexico. The bomb used over hiroshima and the one used over nagasaki. All three of these were detonated over land. What no one knew was what would happen. If these weapons were used in naval warfare.

The navy move the one hundred sixty seven people who lived on the island to other nearby islands so they could begin testing. They also sailed a fleet of ninety five ships to the atoll which would serve as target ships for the test. These were ships that were set for retirement and the scrap yard and instead would be used for testing they would get newt facilities for over. Forty thousand people were constructed. Who would be there to the tests. They had to build everything from scratch. They build bunkers to observe the test. They built barracks kitchens offices clubs for officers and clubs for enlisted men. It was a massive undertaking and all done far away from prying eyes in the middle of the pacific ocean on july first. The first of these tests took place he would be the fourth atomic bomb ever detonated. In the first above water the test was given the codename able it was dropped from a b twenty nine bomber and exploded approximately five hundred feet above the surface. It caused surprisingly little damage to the ships because the bombs were about a third of a mile or six hundred meters off target the next day. The news of this event spread around the world and everyone became familiar with this remote pacific island which was named

California Governor Candidate Larry Elder's Message to Voters
"Larry Elder. Um, what is the message that you want to say to the people listening all over California? Obviously you've gone through the issues and so forth. But That they must turn out. They must turn out in large numbers. They can't leave it to other people to do the heavy lifting for them, right. Well, that's exactly right. Mark, you know. Are you happy? Forget about Larry Elder. Are you happy that for the very first time, people are leaving the state? Are you happy that the price of a home has just now hit $800,000? Are you happy stepping over homeless people? Are you happy about needles on Venice Beach? Are you happy about the crappy education People are getting K through 12 while spending $15,000 a pop. Per year per student. Are you happy with all of that? Well, if you are, then maybe you want to retain this guy. But if you're not, how about some change? How about some common sense? Are you happy that this state is running out of water? Israel is a desert country mark. We've got a little body of water next to them called the Mediterranean. They've been able to figure it out would be solid nation plants. We have a little body of water next to what's called the Pacific Ocean. And we can't figure this out. Are you happy with how severe these forest fires are? Are you happy that $30 billion was stolen from the employment Development Department money that was supposed to be for the unemployment for Californians money that was stolen, but people in prison filing for unemployment benefits and getting them people, criminals in Nigeria, filing for unemployment benefits and getting them $30 billion stolen. Are you happy with all of that? If you're not go to elect elder dot com And throw something in the tip jar because my opponent Mark can raise and spend an unlimited amount of money. And he's doing just that. From the usual suspects. The teachers union, the public sector unions, Hollywood big terror, So throw something in the tip jar. Make this a bit of a fair fight. If you're not happy with what's going on in California, which is why people are leaving the state taking their jobs with them.

What Would Happen If Chabot Dam in the East Bay Hills Broke Open?
"What would happen if chicago damn cracked open an empty the lake behind it onto neighborhoods in san leandro and east oakland. It's an alarming thought. We asked cake. Ud's dan bricky. Who's reported on safety issues at california's oroville dam to find the answer. Holly and vickers kings question is a really good one because it reminds us that all dams pose risks of some kind given the nature of the job they perform holding back huge volumes of water they can turn from placid lake into deadly torrent. If unleashed all at once. They deserve very close attention. When that attention lapses catastrophes can do happen in late may eighteen eighty nine flood. Water overflowed badly maintained private dam in western pennsylvania. Triggering its collapse. A wall of water race down the valley below a century later. Historian david mccullough said. The johnstown flood was so vividly alive in the local consciousness. I grew up in western pennsylvania. I'd heard about the johnstown flood my whole life as children. We used to shout run for the hills. The damas busted little knowing what real terror is in those words. The flood wiped entire towns off the map and killed twenty. Two hundred people in california owns its own special chapter in the history of dam disasters with a tragedy that unfolded more than ninety years ago in a remote canyon fifty miles north of downtown los angeles from the day. The saint francis dam opened in one thousand nine hundred twenty six. It leaked the folks in the farm. Towns downstream used to joke. They'd see you later if the damn don't break on march twelfth nine hundred twenty eight. The saint francis damn disintegrated just hours after it was pronounced sound by los angeles water. Chief william mulholland who had designed and built the two year old structure when the massive concrete dam broke apart water raised more than fifty miles to the pacific ocean killing about four hundred fifty people along the way but those events one hundred thirty years ago in johnstown ninety some years ago in los angeles county sound like ancient history much more recently california. Got a lesson in how dangerous and costly failure of even part of a major dam can be failure ambiance spillway structure results in an uncontrolled. Lisa flood waters from link oroville and eating evacuation from the low twenty. Seventeen collapse the spillway at oroville dam in the northern sierra foothills one hundred thirty miles northeast of san francisco touched off a series of events that lead local officials to order one hundred eighty eight thousand people to flee their homes. This is not a drill. Repeat this is not a drill. Spill ways are crucial to preventing overtopping. That's what happens. When a reservoir rises over the top of the dam and simply spills over a spillway is like an emergency valve. Damn managers can open to safely release water from a reservoir bills over the top but back in february twenty seventeen oroville dam spillway began to disintegrate just as a series of winter storms dumped huge amounts of rain across northern california without a fully functioning. Spillway lake oroville rose rapidly water poured over a hillside that was supposed to serve as an emergency spillway. That emergency spillway began to fail to leading to the mass evacuation. In the aftermath investigators found the emergency spillway was ill conceived and the main spillway was badly designed poorly built and inadequately maintained. So how is should bowe damn different from all those bad dams and what does east bay mud have to say about. Chaba cracking open and unleashing catastrophe on the east bay. Simple answer to that question is that the dam would never crack open. That's jimmy yolly east bay mud director of engineering and chief damn safety officer he oversees the district twenty six times including chabad. Damn the reality is that the dams are designed such that. They don't just crack open. You will see signs of a failure if one is to occur and The dan's designs with monitoring equipment to make sure that you can see that happening if it was a east bay mud confidence that a dam built within a quarter mile of a dangerous fault will stand up to violent shaking.

How Lowriders Were A Protest Against White Supremacy
"The low rider movement was also political as a journalist of the nineteen seventies wrote quote. Low writing culture expresses the refusal of young chicano american to be anglicized. Never been a clear case of the automobile being used as an ethnic statement when mexican-americans drove low riders. They're both claiming their identity. And refusing to become invisible hassled by cops pigeonholed by the media and profiled by the general public. There is often a cost but the reward as it is so often in car culture was freedom. The history of low riding is as old as the history of los angeles car culture itself. If you've been to la or even if you haven't you're probably aware that it's a spread out city of wide boulevards and busy highways. You pretty much need a car to get around. And that's been the case for over a century of the city's history as early as the nineteen twenties. The city had an auto ownership rate of one car for every two point. Two five people compare that to the national average at the time which was one car for every seven people and it's because the tire companies paid to have the public transit yet. They show it in the documentary roger rabbit. It's very enticing to say that there is you know why conspiracy there probably was. There is definitely benefit for certain parties to shut it down but also people also liked having their own cars. So is a mix of things almost as soon as cars got into the hands of angelenos. Enterprising owners dissatisfied with stock sameness of cars like the ford model. A or the chrysler fifty eight quickly got into modifying them and stripping. Wait to create hot rods. Which back in the day were known as hop ups or cow jobs. I'm so glad that word has died out. What is a gal. I've idea let's bring that back. Yeah we got bring back. Dow job algi. That's so funny. My girlfriend said no more gal job. So i get the ones i have running cow job. My girlfriend says i gotta get a real job. Get rid of all my gal jobs. Cow jobs okay. So i found an an inch of blog post on jalopy journal dot com talking about the term gal job and just like hopped up or souped up right how that came from like racehorse giving racehorses like pills pills or drugs to improve their performance gal was also a nickname for like drugs as well So you're gone up your horse. The gow job got it and yeah while the initial focus was on speed some maters quickly became interested in how far they could push the envelope and other ways the great depression of the nineteen thirties was an added incentive for kearns iast to fix up and modify older cars rather than buying the latest and greatest the predominant car culture was creating hot rods. But there's a counterculture developing especially among the mexican american community that was a direct reaction to the dominant mostly white rod. Seen at first it wasn't known as low writing. It was just lowering your car. Also popular was chopping or lowering the roof of the car. Decorating vehicle's exterior with designs and replacing stock interior components with plush luxury substitutes. Still the term low rider hadn't yet been coined in the thirties. The clear predecessor of low rider history in the chicano community was a co style. A slang word that roughly translates to punk or troublemaker. But you goes were known for wearing zoot suits slipping their hair back and duck tales a distinctive pattern of slang and in association with swing in jazz. Music is so cool. I watched like archival footage of and they're just like i wish i could pull that style off. My grandpa had zoot suit back in the day. I wish that you are the same like personality. You had the same job hobbies but you just were every day. I'm like accidentally slamming the coattails of my zoot suit in my impreza. Guys look pretty cool. Still pacheco's weren't necessarily associated with a specific style of automobile wasn't until the fifties that mexican american culture started to really embrace the low rider aesthetic in the nineteen fifties. Many white hot-rodders chose to raise their car turning away from the sleek look that had been popular before the war in the words of chicano artists gabriel gibson. White drivers quote went into hot rods and fast cars. They would raise their cars. These big all motors these big trucks but the raza for the race says now i want to do the opposite on a nice and slow slow and low. The one thousand nine hundred fifty saw the true emergence of low rider culture especially in los angeles in the postwar period. Los angeles was a hub for american auto manufacturing. Second only to detroit with ford chrysler and general motors. All operating assembly plants in the area matching if that was still true. That'd be cool. Yeah bill alice. Ten cities ton is stan. Low rider culture. You have to understand. The history of los angeles and it's mexican population originally founded as a spanish mission to spread catholicism in the seventeen hundreds by the eighteen hundreds it had evolved into a forming and ranching up while the land owners were initially of spanish and mexican descent by the eighteen fifties white americans began to dominate. Los angeles is economy and governments prize surprise. Although mexican americans. And even chinese immigrants outnumbered white americans white angelenos still held most of the political power in the city while the white neighborhoods of los angeles boomed tocado in hispanic populations were increasingly regulated to urban ghettos or barrios especially in the east los angeles area away from the pacific ocean and the downtown core at first these neighborhoods were little more than shantytowns but after world war two the population of l. a. began to explode. The city had one of the largest populations of mexican people living anywhere in the world including mexico. Thousands of mexican americans who had served in the war returned or moved to los angeles and with the cash stipend provided by the gi bill. Many of these vets had the income to afford a car of course despite the improved economic times mexican american communities were still far from the luxury of beverly hills or the film set glamour of hollywood. I'd say hollywood is trying to say that convincingly knowing that hollywood is not very glamorous. Yeah i'm sure back in the day it was but the thing i find funny in interesting seeing like torres families like german tourists in like they're blonde hair and jean shorts like walking around hollywood so confused. Yeah well this is a this place full of like forty dollars suit stores and like weird pizza places. If you're coming to la don't go to hollywood. It's pretty bad. Plus all the studios are like in culver. All the studio sony's in color but most of them are in north hollywood. With their means of expression limited.
