"Tell the driver to slow down and watch out for people on the road. Even in an area that's seen, its share of crime, this latest case has left people both appalled and angry. I think that's pretty crazy. Why would someone do that? What's going through their head when they're spinning around in the hit someone? Yet police say that is exactly what happened. They tell us the driver of this black car almost to the pedestrian while driving through here on Thursday afternoon, the pedestrian said he told the driver to watch out. That's when he said the driver did a U turn and deliberately ran him to him on the sidewalk before then exiting the car and punching him as well. Seattle police are saying if you know of anything, please get a hold of them if they continue that investigation. And again, the driver still at large.

"Amazing. 50 million. That is no small feat by any stretch of the imagination. And it's only the beginning, of course. And so we talked about the numbers, but always find there's more power in the stories behind these impacts as well, right? So I'd love to hear about that if there's any sort of specific stories or projects launched through endowment or grants that were made that you want to speak to or share. Or we're always working on fun stuff that I just mentioned, we're really proud of the work that we put into our support, Ukrainian sovereignty fund, over 800,000 in nonprofits, was sent this year to organizations working on the ground there. We had a big push this summer with the roe versus wade ruling that came down with our protect reproductive rights fund. We collaborated with the artist collective pussy riot and created a fund called the protectory productive rights fund. We took in over $250,000 for these nonprofits that are providing access to abortions and other reproductive care folks that need it. And more recently, we just launched a project with and that's a nonprofit that provides resources and services to frontline healthcare workers in local clinics, particularly those who are in lower income communities and really do need the support right now with the pandemic. Those workers have been tremendously burnt out. And so we've collaborated with art blocks, are generative art friends over there on a project called turnout for burnout. And so not only is that a really great cause, but we're excited as endowment to be foraying and now into on chain and generative art. So these are the endowments as it were. And if you check out for burnout dot com Friends, this just started a few days back with the public mint on November 17th. The colors that heal is this beautiful project by an artist named Ryan green who has firsthand experience working in healthcare and also with this impact on his family and the healthcare industry to and knows firsthand what it can be like to be a patient and also a healthcare worker and the burnout of that environment. And so he's created this beautiful generative art project that captures that feeling of hopefulness and trying to uplift and support folks who are in situations of burnout. And so as we're recording this, 60 of those have already been minted, you can check out it turnout for burnout dot com now, kind of what that's at, maybe we're closer to selling out, I think it's going quickly. But there's probably still one or two left. .2 eth each and 50% of all the minting proceeds from these art pieces are automatically being split to systems contract address on endowment. So this is actually our first application too of these programmable composable contract addresses in V two, where it's just on the split level for the NFT. Sending funds straight to the artist and straight to this nonprofit to support healthcare workers. That's awesome. I'm a huge fan of sustainable I've had Joe the CEO on this show before actually to talk about the great work. They're doing, they've been very involved in web three with crypto philanthropy, philanthropy, and NFT campaigns.

All of it coming together was probably the greatest piece of humor. I've ever seen it southwest and retired vice president of cargo and charter matt. Luckily i look back on it. I get goosebumps. So sit back. Relax and enjoy stories of south west fifty years of flying. Because you never know who. You'll meet the next time you hear. Is this seat open. Nicky what happened with under constant is similar to other stories. That cosby accusers. Have shared with you. The taking of the pills victims feel woozy and then an alleged sexual assault. That's a story that dozens of women have told again and again cosby by the way has always maintained. Any such encounters were consensual. There's there's so many things when you talk about enablers. There were a lot of places these hotels and restaurants and things like that where somebody was procuring. The drug for him because they were the ones who would bring it to the table and they had to have known that this wasn't just a drink totally you know and the other pattern was as i said he would go to their agents and he would say i want a mentor. Xyz that's even what happened with janice dickinson the supermodel. Yeah and he agrees to meet with her and it is just in any drugged and sexually assaulted her and she wanted to put that in her. Two thousand two memoir but judith. Regan testified about this at the second trial. They made her take it out. Because it's dude said dude. Of of course being a famous publisher. Yes cosby was known as being very litigious in the publishing industry and while you would win a lawsuit like that you'd spend millions defending it and so they made her take it out. We have to acknowledge that many accusers couldn't file criminal charges against cosby either. The police departments didn't believe the district attorney's office says and also statute of limitations. What are some of the stories of the women who did try to pursue charges. If you that did at the time they were terrified of him first of all you have to understand like the the victims he chose were not wealthy and powerful i can. He preyed on young naive women who didn't have the resources to fight this. And who didn't have the credibility if they went to the police and said america's dad did this to me. That was one of the things that was so hard for them to go to the police in the first place. And then look what happened andrea constand. She only waited year when she did. All of this happens in two thousand and five and almost as quickly forgotten then about a decade later in two thousand fourteen. Something happened that made even more women start to go public about cosby. They started right op-eds. They went on television. There was a renewed momentum and a push for justice. Yes it was like almost perfect storm. If things that happened in september two thousand fourteen mark whitaker had a new bio of cosby out called cosby. And 'cause we had cooperated with it and it was climbing the bestseller charts. But of course there wasn't one mention of the sexual assaults in that book Cosby headed comedy special. That was coming on. He was about to start a comedy tour. So that happened in hannibal burruss. This young comedian goes into philly to perform at a club there and he just doesn't did a routine he'd been doing off and on for several months and in it where he calls bill cosby a rapist and he says if you don't believe me go home and google it and what happened is the philly mag reporter was in the audience and obviously his ears perked up and he heard bill cosby and he knows bill cosby had always had this contentious relationship with young comics because he was always telling them not to swear so he just starts filling with his iphone and then the next day in philly maggie puts it online at the end of the day with short story on there and over the next few days it just exploded went viral and gawker picked it up and just a bunch of the online news organizations had sprung up and it went crazy and social media and that was the big difference between two thousand fourteen in two thousand five as far as why this case exploded there was social media in two thousand fourteen. There wasn't any in two thousand five so cosby was very good at controlling the media and he but he could not control social media and this thing just kept building and building and before too long the mainstream media was forced to cover it too. Because the new accusers start coming forward and as this is happening the statute of limitations about to expire on on your constanze case so in late. Two thousand fifteen and you pennsylvania. The files criminal charges against cosby. There's a trial. The first one ends in a mistrial but then a second one followed and all of this is happening as metoo movement starting to rise. How did me to play a role in the downfall of cosby. I think the need to move at mainly affected the public's perception of these cases just in the sense that if there's one accuser there's usually more when it's powerful person like this especially when one comes forward than another and another and other and it snowballs so i think it actually made people more likely to understand these cases and why women waited many sexual assault victims. Never go to the police and when they do. It's usually delayed. It's the most underreported violent crime. And that's that's what i think. The big difference because all the jurors were screened about the me too movement and whether or not what they knew about it and they if anyone express strong opinions either way they were dismissed. They were not allowed to sit on the jury in two thousand. Eighteen cosby was convicted on three felony counts of aggravated indecent assault against andrea constand. In two thousand and four now in two thousand twenty one it was all overturned the pennsylvania. Supreme court said cosby cannot be retried on the same charges so nicky even today cosby has supporters. Who believe he's innocent. This includes felicia rashad who played his. Tv wife claire huxtable on the cosby show and is now adina howard university in dc. How powerful men like cosby. Who have long been accused of sexual misconduct. How do they keep their support for so long. Look what happens to you when you do go up against bill cosby cosby. Could control everybody around the in. It's just the power that they have is really unbelievable and even with the media because you know his agency also represents other celebrities. So if you don't behave and ask the questions they want you to ask a hand then. You don't get access to all the other celebrities that this agency has. And like i said and then there were modeling agencies.

Pick up our conversation with actor. Kate winslet and my podcast colleague. Got the envelope. Yvonne yvonne winslett how she adopted a very specific american accent for her role in the hbo series mayor of east town. Well we must talk about the accent. Eve done many accents in your career. But how did nailing down the delco accent compared because i wonder how mayors mindset of this idea of being lost in broken. How does that figure into you. Finding that voice for her and how that weighs into her voice or influences it. It's interesting because i realized that as i was learning the dialects it was definitely affecting the emotional register of the voice. I was kind of finding for matt. I'm actually how register is a bit deeper. The my own you know. My voice is quite bright. And spiky. And i go up and down lot. I guess sort of like a bouncy tone to my voice and quite clip. I think to an american air. That's how english people speak and we kind of is sort of like a snappy tippy way of talking whereas the delco is much more like that and it's like down and flutter and it sort of much more than that of a voice that exists really inside the body. I know that sounds crazy. But you know some voices can be right up in in the head you know quite nasal for example but with the delco dialect. The there's something about the you know the quality of it that's just way lower and you know kind of you know just it's still sort of in entrenched in houma was you know. Sort of embedded emotionally into her. Because she did she was born there. She was raised there. I had to pretty darn pretty done well and it was. It was suppose little crazy making you know. I'm not going to pretend it wasn't but for me. The thing the reason it was crazy making actually is because there are sounds that are made within the delaware county the delco dialect that are very strong and could easily be pushed into a sort of a caricature. Uri voice and i did want to create a voice. I wanted to create a person. I had lots of dialect samples of local people and there was one woman named trish. Loria highs trish loria. I used to listen to every single day on the way to work every single morning in the call and on the way home. Same thing so her voice would set me up. Love that trish loria yeah. It's all dedicated. Trish loria. I also need to hear more about walk. 'cause i know brad. The show's creator. Really encourage you to visit it to get a sense of the vibe when you first got to town chocolate. A bit about what that did for you like how you absorb that into your character before. I started filming. I was preparing researching doing my stuff. That i always do for probably about five or six months beforehand and i thought how do i even connect with where i'm going. So why subscribe to the delco times so it would read this newspaper every day so to me it kind of became this it almost felt like mythical place wa wa but by the time i got that i was like it was like lapland onto to sort of finally walk through the door of a wa wa. I don't know i felt like how. Yes i'm one of the things. I really enjoyed in the series. Are your characters interactions with her mother. Who is played by. Jean smart the to balance each other in such an interesting way. You know the way they speak to. Each other is so real and genuine like the conversations and frustrations between mothers and daughters. How was gene as a scene partner. Oh jane was just she was just terrific. I mean she the comic timing you know is she can turn huma into punctuation by just doing an inhalation of breasts. In a certain way. And a flicker of an eye on i would just be in fits. Sometimes we couldn't really look at each other too much because we would just crack up laughing the great thing about the relationship that we have on screen had an in math is that they love each other so much but they get stuck with how supposed to kind of express that or show that must not really great with huge displays of love and affection particularly in a family way. She's always like hey you know. Just don't be like don't do that. Like sort of issues with things like that so so. Yeah maron helen. You know well how list with her what we were saying. So you know to matriarchs in the one house. We'll that's tricky. That's tricky thing. Very tricky thing. I just don't always get along. Didn't always see eye to eye. You know but they have this sort of honesty gene where they just can't help. They just can't resist being brutally honest with one another sometimes to the point of being so tactless that it's just rude. You know typical mother and daughter spots that would often result in the slinging of like caustic verbal grenades and sometimes food as well. Thanks but it was great and we we would improvise law and look out for each other. You know she'd often saves me honey. I should try. This should i. Shall he just try. Hey i wanna try something. I just try that. Maybe no well that work. Let's say yeah. Give the gauche go okay. Okay okay. i'll try. I'll try and then she'd do something awfully brilliant. A through line of the series is the trauma and abuse of women. And i i wondered if playing a detective who is so close to those experiences sort of changed or shaped your understanding.

Because you never know who. You'll meet the next time you hear. Is this seat us. I'm back with my colleague belly times. James quilliam we're talking about the critics of la county district attorney. George gascon so james. What are his supporters saying about his tenure so far. They're very happy with his decision to remove sentencing enhancements. Many critics are furious at the idea that people will not automatically be facing life without parole even for the worst possible crimes or more commonly enhancements are used to add years two sentences and charges filed against gang members off a lot of his supporters are happy to see those things though away because most of his supporters do believe that mass incarceration is a serious problem in the state. So they're very happy to see people being basically penalties for the crimes as charged and not with these multipliers on top of it. Gascon gone is just one of a lot of high profile district attorney's across the country in big cities Chesa boat in san francisco. Larry krassner in philadelphia. How would you rank him. Among them in terms of implementing so far they have promised six months in done a lot of what he said he would do now. The question is going to be how effective it's actually going to be as you mentioned. The union representing deputy attorney sued him to block large portions of the enhancement policy and a judge greater than they basically. He had exceeded his own legal authority in ordering Ordering these days to strike enhancements from the record in cases that will already active that had been filed before he took office He did announce the hiring of a special prosecutor to review for controversial cases. One of them being the shooting. Brendan glenn in venice. Twenty fifteen that stirred a lot of anger in la. He announced he would want to seek those charges potentially on us special prosecutor however as most people now murder charges are very rarely filed against the police officer. The most common charge you will see in a fatal on-duty shooting manslaughter. guest going did not get special prosecutor hired in time to bring manslaughter charges. In three of those four cases he promised to review on the campaign trail as a lot of questions as to whether or not. There's any viability to that promised. So i don't know if it's fair to really rank against people who've been in office for two to four years. I think it's fair to say. He has made attempts to do a lot of what he promised on. The campaign trail Whether or not those things are going to have lasting effects varies on the topic. The district attorney's office has largest indie united states. If his efforts exceed here. How's that going to influence district attorney's offices across the united states. This movement has already claimed a lot of big castles. Obviously chicago philadelphia. San francisco saint louis few other places. And you're seeing this movement. Play out now in manhattan. You know the large field runnings replace. Cyrus vance's is the district attorney. There is almost entirely comprised of reformers or candidates who have above defense background. So the idea that it is happening in the second largest city in the us in could be very well poised to happen. If nothing else there is an appetite among electorates for this and people are running on this believing it can win. And i think s cones victory in and of itself probably was just another sign that that movement is a serious political force to be reckoned with if gascon in fact does get recalled and right now it's just a petitions being signed. There's nothing on the ballot yet. If that happens what would that do to. The progressive movement across the united states is also a difference between the two right if if the recall petition gets enough signatures to force him into a a race basically where he has to defend his positions and he's going to be under constant attack again. Like you mentioned earlier from police unions from his own prosecutors. Every case he files his to be under scrutiny. Maybe does produce a backlash or at least ammunition for critics of the progressive prostitute movement nationally. And obviously if he were to lose a recall election in relatively safely blue los angeles. It'd be a pretty big surprise. I imagine shock to that movement. Be realities of that. Potentially happening are not huge. I'm not saying the recall is has no chance at at my interesting immagination but there definitely a heavy underdogs in this fight. You know so. We are a ways away from their being. Implausible recall.

"When it's something you've actually written down for yourself as opposed to just something you come up with in your head and some of those. I never work and you go. Oh you're probably right because you're not having committed it to give them thought about it enough and committed to to writing I wonder what would have happened if you're coach at said Yeah you know what these are home runs. This is definitely going to happen. Maybe you would have taken it all taken off. You know you would have been like. Oh well maybe. I wouldn't have worked so hard. Yeah yeah. I guess we'll never know but it was a Is definitely i it. It probably helped. He did doubt me. So i think doubt that. Yeah it sounds like a cause you to dig in and so when you when you I don't know what the right term is. We were approached. Recruited whatever by the naval academy was. That was that something that was on your radar or were you looking for rethinking august. Recruited to some you know non military school where that didn't come with a commitment to you know that to to serve afterwards what what was happening there. Yeah i'd always had interests in the military and probably part of that came from My dad's being in the military. And just i think just. I'd always been interested in like watching the navy seal shows on discovery channel things of that sort but i but i wasn't but at the same time i wasn't optimizing for that i wasn't saying like hey i i wanna go to west point or air force academy and naval academy. I was I knew i wanted to play football. And there were times in my life. Where i did see his like. Hey the military would be. That would be an interesting route or really liked the idea of marine or navy seals or things of. That always intrigued me. But at during that time i was i was in. I was being recruited by Looking assessing Potentially going to the university of kentucky university of south florida and and the naval academy as a as a had come into that conversation started. After i was looking at those other schools Where i was talking to the coaches there in terms of where there actually more of an offer that was put on the table but what actually helped there was as the naval kennedy came across sir research that talk to talk to family talk to others in kind of start to realize how good of an opportunity that was in in what more naval academy brought than just going in playing football somewhere and and that was that intrigued me. It was interesting. I was just thinking about like i do i do. I want to play professional football. Have the chance. Yes i do but but also is like it's not i'm not one hundred percent sold on that and there's there's other opportunities in their life after after football as well as i wasn't just completely consumed by it so i was so thing is really just i i saw Just get collect more. Data points Related to that opportunity and it just ended up. I think my heart me to go that direction in made a lot of sense to go that route and did you when you. You mentioned several times About flight school. In pensacola are you. Did you become a pilot would have what. What was the outcome of that. Yes when happening is i was about. Schools typically.

I'm was going on that that caused you to move so frequently and did you feel like that was helpful to you because it exposed you to all kinds of new people and things are. Did you think like gosh. Another move i just got. I just got my buddy selling jolly ranchers. You know i mean come on. Yeah so it was Before the the medical device sales job that my dad had he was actually in the marines. So we he was. He was actually in the military and we. We moved a around a bit from him being in the military but we also moved around a bit from him.

It wasn't an easy thing to do in your head. So many good friends and i built relationships with and as we moved to georgia and we moved to hold these other states. I think looking back in hindsight it was. It was really you know i i had gone to. I was always a new kid at school. I was. I went to three different high schools middle schools but it was looking back. I wouldn't regret any of it. I think what it taught me was how to enter a new environments and adapt very quickly in how to put also just be exposed to so many different types of people in different Who have different perspectives and ways of thinking that really helped me to learn how to relate to different people or be empathetic to people Who all come from different different different backgrounds in life for sure and then the goal.

So i was i was i am a driver but i was kind of pretending that i use this product and it really helped me And to drive traffic to the page and so as people landed on the page. I just wanted to see kind of what the funnel metrics looked like an kind of tests in the experiment that set up and what that experiment was was a landing page where people would come. They would sign up then they would be sent to. Ab tested pricing page to pay for certain set of features and then after On the success page it would say hey sorry on unfortunately were actually Actually underdevelopment but if you're committed driver fill out this survey and the survey was really a play Within a week five hundred drivers signed up over one hundred of them filled out the survey and just rope essays about their problems. Their proposed solutions their strategies. They're getting free market research from all the from all the drivers right there exactly and so it was. It was extremely validating and there are so many hypotheses that i had that were where i found out that i was either on the right direction. My thinking there but others were. I was completely off base and that experiment just really set a strong foundation for helping me understand is like hey monty something here but here's where my arrows was pointing now. I kind of have a more refined direction of where to how to think about this platform to build. And so that's where that is Kind of how good wise came to be. Was that initial kind of experiment. And then over time we i ended up. I knew i had to. I was kind of the the business person i needed to balance. Find a co-founder technical co founder. Who would balance out. My skill sets As were would go in in endeavoring to building offer company which i had never done before and so i was just trying to talk to everybody. I was new to pittsburgh. I had no network there so i needed to make sure that everyone knew that ryan greene was looking for technical co founder. And that was what i was doing and so in my class specifically did you do that. How did you get the word out. Because that's something that i think would be very helpful for people to know how you did. Yeah you know. It was the risk quite a bit of any type of startup event. That was happening. I was most likely. They're what i what i also did as i hired. I contacted a virtual assistant to curate events for.

Starting at i think i remember five five years old navy first grade and we'd help him with his business and help them whole things around and he would We always give him a hard time about this because he would he would pay us. He wouldn't pay cash he'd pay us in candy and i was like i don't know that may cross some lines there but we But also just i think seeing exposure to to his business in seeing him operate that is a is a small business owner with in how he grew that. I think all those things i didn't realize in the moment Had really led to a were pretty substantial events that kind of shaped my mind into thinking about a lot about business a lot about sales over time in a fairly informal way is that grew up and i remember is. I got into about sixth grade. That's where i would say my first real entrepreneurial experience happen where my best. My my lifelong best friend and i ended up starting a We ended up going out to sam's club buying this In bulk a huge bag of lollipops jolly rancher lollipops at every. Everyone of the school wanted. But there wasn't a place to just go buy them Not the most innovative idea anybody's ever thought of here. But but what we do is we buy them in bulk and sell them for fifty cents each and we'd make a couple of hundred dollars a month in sixth grade which was a lot of money back. Then we go we every day after After school would be on the bus together. And we'd count the money and we'd split and that was i can remember since then i've always had some some sort of side hustle or business that has been going on to where i'm i'm selling something. I'm starting something identifying a gap in in a market or school and trying to fill that with some sort of side hustle. And and that led i think as i i was i was really deepening. Sports quite a bit. I ended up You're kind of fast forward to me going into To high school i was i was kind of started to focus more and more and football and running track and as i I think sports really taught me to be fairly goal oriented but also know i think sports teaches you so many life lessons early on around just how to deal with adversity to work with other people how to overcome so many challenges or obstacles that are putting your way in but at the same time is helping you but it gives you like the fastest. The quickest feedback loop early on your life to be able to see. Hey if i work. I can see that i can and be able to If i put in extra work they extra time towards something how that actually comes back in and actually helps me improve or helps me do something or accomplish something in seeing what accomplishing goals actually did for me. So i became fairly goal oriented in high school and was really always kind of setting myself out setting myself up As i my goal i think going my junior year was like i. I wanna hit all these certain numbers for running and running certain times and lifting weights but also Wanted to do all these things to get to be a d. one football player and that was my goal in so as i said set out that goal ended up accomplishing that and going to the naval academy was recruited Recruited to play football.

So i think you originally trained in lieu on marketing and offer about ten years. I a chemical some judy. Let me joining the industry. I not been here for over twenty years now.
