Another Installment of 'Things That Never Happened' With Joe Biden
"But then waste your time on radio. So get back to this. Ladies and gentlemen, And shockingly, there is yet another episode of this just infamous show Jim found on the dark web. Things that never happen. The kid sniffing woman feeling bride taking loser in the White House, the rotting bag of oatmeal. And no to the person in the chat this morning who said, Dan, maybe it's time to stop calling them names. No, sorry. Not this show. I'm not done. I'm done with cutesy time. I'm not playing around. What did I just say that was inaccurate? Does he not sniff dealer? Don't step from. Is he not a bride taker? Is his brain not riding oatmeal? Is anything? That's not name calling. That's that's that's called fat calling, fat calling. And even it wasn't name calling. I don't really care. I don't like Biden. I hate what the Democrats are doing to this country. I hate that they're destroying our kids, creating racist out of everyone, that they're opening our borders, that there's a fentanyl crisis, that there's a child sex trafficking crisis, that all this stuff could be prevented, that the economy is struggling, that inflation's gone up. And I'm not going to cost them. They're acting like a -holes. And to I'm going call them that because that's what they are. They are. And I get it. Yeah, they absolutely Thank you, coach. You know it. I'm not going to stop. I'm not going to stop. I've always said like, is this show this show. It's the Dan Boggino show. And it's authentic and it's real and it's raw. And it is what it is. And I really appreciate the people who love it. But no, I'm not going to stop calling the kid -sniffing, woman -feeling, bride aching loser exactly what he is. Here he is again, appearing yesterday in another episode of Things That Never Happened as he unbelievably lies yet again about his history as some kind of civil rights advocate. Check this out. Things That Never Happened with Joe Biden. I thought things had changed. I was able to literally talk Strom Thurmond into voting for the Civil Rights Act before he died.

Dinesh Has Some Fun With the Stormy Daniels Prosecution
"Manhattan DA's prosecution of Donald Trump in the stormy Daniels matter. You might say, wait a second. How do you prosecute somebody for paying hush money to a porn star? Whether or not we're leaving aside the facts of the case to Trump have an affair with stormy Daniels, dead Trump reimbursed Michael Cohen, the attorney who made the payment, leave all that aside. What is the illegality here? Well, the illegality supposedly comes in the form of a campaign finance violation because again, the Manhattan DA has the job of proving that this was in fact this money was taken from campaign finance funds, and frankly, even if it was normally this kind of offense is treated as just nothing more than campaign as to now reimburse those funds. Remember Obama had campaign finance violations totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars, and all they said was, listen, pay the money back. End of story. So the idea of converting this into a felony, which carries, by the way, four years in prison, just downright absurd. The whole thing is preposterous. But guess what? After we heard that in the rest of Trump was imminent, Trump is going to be in handcuffs, strom himself seemed to think this was actually going to happen. And we saw police putting a barricades around the courthouse in a sense to keep people away and guess in case there was an outburst of protest overall this. And then suddenly the air seemed to go out of the balloon. They passed in two days and three days, no rest well, they're gonna be reconvening on Monday and then we hear now they're on break for a month. What? A month. Yes, a month. So I don't really necessarily want to go into the sexual analogies here. But since we're talking about stormy, Daniels, I mean legally, this is a total coitus interruptus.

I'm here to save some, maybe I'll just add a few times. I also thought we had some good chances, and they blocked a lot of shots and got in the way a few times, so I like you said, obviously, it would have been nice to get two points, but take the one point and move on, get to New York games coming up, and then back to back. So no still points to be had. In a wild day for local college basketball, Maryland beat Minnesota 70 54 despite a rough first half shooting. The turf scored 19 points off 15 Minnesota turnovers and now advanced to face Indiana for a second 9 p.m. tip off in his many nights. Georgetown announced Patrick Ewing is out after 6 seasons in which his final two campaigns were historically bad winning only 13 total games and setting a big east record with a 29 game conference losing skid like Ewing, Mike Brennan coached American to only one NCAA tournament appearance and was fired after ten seasons. The NFL awarded Washington one of only two third round level compensatory draft picks based on free agency, getting the 97th overall selection due to the loss of Brandon sheriff last year, the commander is also getting additional 6th rounder, the ravens, meanwhile, they don't have any compensatory picks for the first time in 13 years.

Schools Rush to Spend COVID Relief Funds, Not on COVID Relief
"And what we're talking of schools this from hot air David strom literally nobody should be surprised by why I bought public schools did with all that pandemic a they got during the COVID emergency And this is what the Democrats on the left do Very little actually was spent on making schools more resilient to COVID and COVID like diseases This is the biggest scam in modern times financially It's bigger than this clown that they just arrested today so they would make sure that he couldn't testify in public About all the money he gave Democrats Second biggest donor to the Democrat party this election cycle Same to man If you thought the money would be going primarily to health related investments you would be disappointed It isn't going so much to buying new air filtration at new air filtration or similar expenses Why would they spend the money on COVID related things since they work to keep kids out of school in the first place So how are schools which are rushing to spend the money as fast as they can now using the extra dough As you expect expanding the money being spent on school personnel Increases in staff salaries and bonuses I don't even know how we can take this anymore

You should be using these record breaking profits to increase production and refining. Invest in America for the American people. He also urged Congress to speed up work on alternative energy sources. Asking the Congress, pass a permitting Bill to speed up the approval of all kinds of energy production from wind to solar to clean hydrogen. Because we need to get this moving now quickly. Now Biden says more energy supplies will be released at prices do not go down at the pump. Sources of Bloomberg say prosecutors in the Department of Justice say they are ready with at least one criminal charge against Donald Trump. This is a Bloomberg's Chris strom. There are now prosecutors and FBI agents within the Justice Department who see sufficient evidence to bring charges against Trump for obstruction of justice while they're investigating the other charges. Yeah, strom says the process now is to basically put together a prosecution memorandum that will lay out the pros and cons of bringing charges what might be some of the litigation risks, the things that they need to take into account and all of that will be presented to attorney general Garland to make the final decision.

he pioneered DNA testing for forensic and paternity applications his work has led him to appearances on such shows as 60 minutes and Oprah doctor buck strom welcome to Bloomberg Thank you for having me Barry My pleasure So let's start a little bit with your educational background You graduate University of Chicago with both a PhD in biology and a medical degree was the plan always to work in genetics Yes From the time I was in 7th grade I knew I wanted to be a scientist And as an undergraduate I became interested in prenatal diagnosis in particular And when I was an undergraduate I did research and found that one of the centers to do that research was at University of Chicago in one of my early mentors Albert Dorfman had published a paper on prenatal diagnosis for hunter syndrome So I actually sent him a letter typed it out on my Smith Corona electric typewriter Then it's a him and lo and behold a month later I got a packet of information Saying how would you like to come work on my lab over the summer And that led to my entering an MD PhD program that was called the medical scientist training program was a federally funded program It paid for my tuition and gave me a living stipend as a 6 year program turned my MD and PhD So yeah I was always my plan to be a medical scientist And you worked under biochemical geneticist William nyhan whose kind of legendary in that field tell us a little bit about working with doctor nihan and what you learned from him and what that experience was like Yeah well that was fabulous So again this was a cold call I started out in between my first and 1220 year of college And my adviser in the master of my college was scientist named Richard goldsmith and he said hey I have a buddy doctor William nyhan out in San Diego Maybe I could send a letter and you could go out and work for him over the summer between your freshman and the top four year in college And it was like you know somebody asking me if I wanted to work for the Pope And I said yes of course I do And same thing He welcomes me He has the laboratory and he and his partner Larry sweetman got me hooked on biochemical genetics And then after I went to medical school got my MD got my PhD the obvious choice for me to do a residency was at University of California San Diego where doctor Nye and had become the chairman of the department So that was just a no brainer So I ended up doing my residency there and for the three years of my residency and fellowship I worked I worked with William nyhan Who has an encyclopedic knowledge of biochemical genetics and it was just a fabulous experience for me Tell us about some of the grants to pursue genetics of growth disorders that you were working on at the University of Chicago They seem really quite fascinating Yeah so from a very early age I was interested in developmental biology which is the science studying the mechanisms by which we go from an embryo in which all cells are identical to an adult where we have hundreds of different specialized cells And Albert Dorfman my mentor University of Chicago was working on the differentiation of cartilage In chickens So I was cutting off them but from 9 dozen chickens a week And growing them in tissue culture and they would differentiate into nature chondrocytes which are cartilage cells and tissue culture That was all before DNA sequencing DNA analysis was available And then when cloning started gene cloning I got a grant to clone the gene for human cartilage specific collagen and to see how that got turned on during development It was very exciting So how does that lead to pioneering DNA testing for forensic and paternity applications So I'm always been what I call an applied scientist Scientists out there really come in two forms One is the basic sciences the person that really wants to delve incredibly deeply into one particular problem I always was more interested in how are we going to use these developments to help people in particular I was a professor at University of Chicago DNA testing for forensics was just in its infancy DNA had not yet been admitted into courts in Illinois I was approached by several different prosecutors who had very difficult cases in ask if I could if I could do DNA testing to support their cases and being an academics and having some academic freedom I said yes in legal in Illinois I don't know if this is around the United States There's something called a fry hearing where before laboratory evidence.

"This is Bloomberg law with June grosso from Bloomberg radio My name is canis Dupree I'm an exonerate who spent 30 years in prison for a crime I did commit I was locked up for 22 years It's been half of my life Basically in there from the age of 28 53 I'm 35 years old And I just got exonerated after 16 years of wrongful imprisonment The innocence project is well known for getting people wrongfully convicted of crimes exonerated through DNA evidence But what happens to exonerees after their release from prison Do they get compensated for all the time they spent behind bars Well lawsuits to get that compensation can be a very long and a very expensive process but now litigation funders are making bets on wrongful conviction cases and some are willing to give exonerees as much as $1 million in upfront cash Joining me is Bloomberg laws Roy strom Roy and wrongful conviction cases to the exonerees have to prove their innocence or do they have to prove the prosecution or police did something wrong They do have to prove that there was misconduct at the constitutional tort claim basically that their rights were taken away by wrongdoing on the part of police or prosecutors And it's a pretty tough legal burden to hurdle About 1200 exonerees have filed these types of civil lawsuits and about 51% of those received some type of monetary recovery and about 27% were unsuccessful The remaining suits are still pending Give us a refresher course on what litigation funding is and how much of it there is out there The litigation funding is basically when investors put money into a loss suit in a type of deal where they'll be compensated really well if that case wins and typically they won't get anything back if the case loses And it's a very attractive asset class at the moment It currently has nearly $12 billion in assets under management among big group of these litigation funding companies And how long have they been funding wrongful conviction cases People I spoke with said that it's become much more popular recently that wrongful conviction cases attract funding One of the reasons is there's just a lot more of them being filed So the number of exonerees has spiked since 2014 and it's the type of lawsuit that Garner's interest because the plaintiffs these wrongful conviction victims have a need for money and their cases go on for a long time And there is the prospect of a big settlement or verdict at the end of the day So in most cases do they give an initial payout to the exoneree Yes usually the exonerate will receive some form of upfront payments The numbers I heard could range as high as a $1 million up front other funders were more likely to give a smaller number one company is giving a $100,000 up front And charging a much lower interest rate But other funders will provide monthly or every other month sort of stipend to help these people live I know there can be some spectacular multi-million dollar awards still a million up front strikes me as very high Definitely a $1 million is a lot of money and I think if funder gives someone a $1 million they're pretty confident that their case will result in an award Some of the funders I spoke with said that they would not give that type of money in part because they didn't want to be involved in handing someone a $1 million who's just coming out of prison and might not know what to do with it or who would be better served in their mind by having installments of payments rather than just a giant lump sum If the loses his case or her case what happens to that initial payout They keep the money If the case loses they get to keep whatever it was that they got up front I take it the interest rates vary a lot So the cost of the money is really what I found to be one of the bigger sort of controversies in the area which is that funders can request two to three times their initial investment So in the example where exonerate receives a $1 million up front if they get an award they might be paying 3 million back Some funders think that's too much and one fund I spoke with said they can't be returned at a 100% or less than a 100% of their investment if there's an award And then there was a new company that was getting into this as the sort of charity that would give a $100,000 upfront and no matter how long it took if the case was successful they'd only ask for 8% interest on that So they would only get back a $108,000 regardless of the time or the monetary award that was ultimately won And there were also states that have compensation systems set up That's right So there's 36 states and there's a federal law that provides money to exonerees and sort of the no fault way Those laws provide much less than the civil lawsuits that end up sometimes in these multi-million dollar figures These laws in many states provide maybe $50,000 for every year spent in prison but those two are not a guarantee they require a lot of administrative work and they do require you to prove a legal term called actual innocence and a study found that about half of.

Definitely a $1 million is a lot of money and I think if funder gives someone a $1 million they're pretty confident that their case will result in an award Some of the funders I've spoke with said that they would not give that type of money in part because they didn't want to be involved in handing someone a $1 million who's just coming out of prison and might not know what to do with it or who would be better served in their mind by having installments of payments rather than just a giant lump sum If the loses his case or her case what happens to that initial payout They keep the money If the case loses they get to keep whatever it was that they got up front I take it the interest rates vary a lot So the cost of the money is really what I found to be one of the bigger sort of controversies in the area which is that funders can request two to three times their initial investment So in the example where exonerate receives a $1 million up front if they get an award they might be paying 3 million back Some funders think that's too much And one fund I spoke with said they can't be returned at a 100% or less than a 100% of their investment if there's an award And then there was a new company that was getting into this as the sort of charity that would give a $100,000 upfront and no matter how long it took but the case of successful they'd only ask for 8% interest on that So they would only get back a $108,000 regardless of the time or the monetary awards that was ultimately won And there were also states that have compensation systems set up That's right So there's 36 states and there's a federal law that provides money to exonerees and sort of the no fault way Those laws provide much less than the civil lawsuits that end up sometimes in these multi-million dollar figures These laws in many states provide maybe $50,000 for every year spent in prison but those two are not a guarantee they require a lot of administrative work and they do require you to prove a legal term called actual innocence and a study found that about half of.

my life Basically in there for the age of 28 53 I'm 35 years old And I just got exonerated after 16 years of wrongful imprisonment The innocence project is well known for getting people wrongfully convicted of crimes exonerated through DNA evidence But what happens to exonerees after their release from prison Do they get compensated for all the time they spent behind bars Well lawsuits to get that compensation can be a very long and a very expensive process but now litigation funders are making bets on wrongful conviction cases and some are willing to give exonerees as much as $1 million in upfront cash Joining me is Bloomberg laws Roy strom Roy and wrongful conviction cases to the exonerees have to prove their innocence or do they have to prove the prosecution or police did something wrong They do have to prove that there was misconduct at the constitutional tort claim basically that their rights were taken away by wrongdoing on the part of police or prosecutors And it's a pretty tough legal burden to hurdle About 1200 exonerees have filed these types of civil lawsuits and about 51% of those received some type of monetary recovery and about 27% were unsuccessful The remaining suits are still pending Give us a refresher course on what litigation funding is and how much of it there is out there The litigation funding is basically when investors put money into a lawsuit in a type of deal where they'll be compensated really well if that case wins and typically they won't get anything back if the case loses and it's a very attractive asset class at the moment It currently has nearly $12 billion in assets under management among big group of these litigation funding companies And how long have they been funding wrongful conviction cases People I spoke with said that it's become much more popular recently that wrongful conviction cases attract funding One of the reasons is there's just a lot more of them being filed So the number of exonerees has spiked since 2014 and it's the type of lawsuit that Garner's interest because the plaintiffs these wrongful conviction victims have a need for money and their cases go on for a long time And there is the prospect of a big settlement or verdict at the end of the day So in most cases do they give an initial payout to the exoneree Yes usually the exoneree will receive some form of upfront payment The numbers I heard could

The Dinesh D'Souza Podcast
Biden Falsely Claims All Segregations Were Republicans
"And listened to Joe Biden's speech in Georgia, the devil went down to Georgia and it was Biden railing about segregation. He's railing about the specter of segregationist George Wallace, the originator of the notorious phrase segregation now segregation tomorrow, segregation forever. And Biden left the clear impression that these segregationists could all be found in the Republican Party and his idea was let's not continue this horrible Republican tradition of segregation. A Biden didn't say all that, but he implied it. And he did name specifically the segregationist and he named Wallace, in particular, but what he didn't tell you is that the segregationists were his buddies. Biden earlier boasted that earlier in his career boasted that he knows these guys, they were great guys. He worked with them. He found common cause with them. They actually regarded him as as a kind of protege. So interestingly, all of this has now become a race, not just with Biden himself doing it, but with the media sort of colluding in it. And what Biden also didn't tell you is that the segregationists were Democrats, and this goes all the way back to the aftermath of the Civil War, the very people. The Brennan center has put out a long list of civil rights bills that were blocked by segregationists, but again, the Brennan center that's left wing organization doesn't tell you that those segregationists were Democrats. They were Democrats to the core. There's virtually one or two examples of a segregationist Democrat who became a Republican Strom Thurmond is an example of one who did, but when Thurman became a Republican he wasn't promoting segregation at all. Now what about George Wallace? Well, George Wallace was a Democrat. He was a segregationist. He briefed the left the Democratic Party to run as an independent, he thought it might be a better way for him to try to get to the presidency. But when that failed, interestingly he didn't become a Republican. He became he went right back to the Democratic Party. He stayed a Democrat until his death. So this is the point that you get the false teaching here and the false implication from the left that these segregationists became Republicans, and the fact of the matter is the vast vast majority of them stayed loyal Democrats right into the graves.

"Women's spent most of the last two years living in a tiny cabin on a remote arctic island in norway. It's an old trapper station built for beluga hunting. It's no running water no electricity. It's even insulated. It was a couple of very cold winters staying there until the fallen strum she and cinema sorby are explores who are passionate about protecting the arctic. The fastest warming region on earth. While living there they collected data that will be used by climate scientists. They took ice core samples operated drowns to measure sea-surface temperatures and documented wildlife sightings sobe relish the opportunity to live so close to nature to go to a place like the arctic which looks so frozen and so forbidding and to feel so at home was a really powerful feeling and she wanted to share it with others from the cabin sorby and strom connected with students around the world using satellite video.

"Then jealous your response again. There are multiple options on the table and one of them is to just simply change the rules. For the purposes of voting rights reforms. The filibuster was the insulator of jim. Crow it is an accident of legislative. History it's not part of the constitution in any way but it has been a used again and again to stymie civil rights progress. Joe manchin is exactly the reason that we're calling on biden to put pressure on the senate like johnson before him biden has been given a situation where yes yes to lead on the economy and he asked him tough decisions about wars overseas any yet. He also has to act with courage to protect voting rights to protect our democracy to protect civil rights. And so this president has said that one of the greatest crises facing our democracy. Are these state level voter suppression laws. If you believe that mr by then act on it and have the courage to call on your former colleagues on the senate to do ever. They have to do to get these. So how do you respond to biden. Who keeps on saying. He wants bipartisan support. And so he doesn't want to eliminate the filibuster first of all less than my senator. Murkowski is not taken support for the people. Act off the table. Also senator mansion has been involved in the redraft of that bill so that bill is still very much alive on the senate things are dance and people can be against something week and then get a couple of words change and under four next week. It's not as cut and dry as that op. Ed might suggest earlier this year. President biden said he supports a return to the talking filibuster which require senators to delay a bill by talking on the senate floor. His comments came after senate minority leader mitch. Mcconnell said he would go scorched earth if democrats moved to eliminate the filibuster turning the senate into he said a hundred car pileup and warned. republicans would retaliate with conservative laws. If and when they retake the senate this is senate majority whip dick durbin on the senate floor where he called to abolish the filibuster referring to it as a legislative rock bottom today nearly sixty five years after strom thurmond marathon defense of jim crow. The filibuster is still making a mockery of american democracy. The filibuster is still be misused by some senators to block urgently needed in supported by strong majority of the american people. So if you can respond to that. And ben people for the american way used to be pro. Filibuster what happened. One thing we saw mitch. Mcconnell changed the filibuster rules in order to pack the court with far right-wing justices. Which again you know. This is the guy who said that he wouldn't even push through adjust if it was in the last year and then he forgot about republicans are very comfortable using power when they have a couple of abusing power when they add they impact our supreme court with justice even though they have lost the popular vote again and again and again. This is what we're dealing with. And so you know mitch. Mcconnell and his hypocrisy don't hold much weight with us. There was a time when it felt like there was some decency in washington but we have right now is unbridled corruption in states like texas and georgia where they have voted to empower politicians with the power to override the people in the next election and the only antidote to state level voter suppression and that type of corruption. Quite frankly is strong. Federal voting rights bills. That's how we end jim crow. And that's how we have to deal with this situation. Dan before we go. I just wanna ask about civil rights. Voting rights icon. Reverend jesse jackson who is reportedly as cove nineteen along with his wife. Jackie they're under doctor's observation at a chicago hospital. He also has parkinson's he would. They were both fully vaccinated. If you could just comment someone who has fought for also healthcare for all. Jesse got me started when i was fourteen years old. Jackie is a saint. Jesse is a unique power in our country When i left the nwc p. became a social impact investor in the silicon valley. At that time. I was one of thirty six black men in the country. You could write a check to start a new tech company. Jesse jackson literally opened up the floodgates for blacks to come into investing in tech by simply showing up at shareholder mic wins and shaming of google. This is a guy who four sixty seventy years. He did. Nothing but serve the people of this country. Hope that we're all praying for him though. Ben jealous thanks so much for joining us.

I can't deal with just a normal company if i can get. My business to that point denied maximize the value in again. I can sell my company for a lot of money. Or if i decided not to sell it like lay on the beach in hawaii and collect checks because someone else was going to run this company for me because it's such a great extraordinary company It also provides some what i call financial insurance for the family of the owner. So if if something happened this really ties into leadership as if the owner of a business is so important to the business that it can't run without that person there then if something happens to that person the value of the business and thus what the errors of the business are gonna gatt starts to go down immediately so if you could have a company that is high value because it's an extraordinary great company than people are going to more you for a few days but the businesses gotta keep on rolling and your family. Kennedy's on hat right. And then the family can Decide what it wants to do. It can keep the business and have someone else run it. It can sell it. It can do a lot of things that has a lot of options so a valuable company provides the owner in their family with options of what they can do with the business and on the other side from an operation.

Creating Faster, More Efficient Feedback Loops in Real-Time with UserTesting CTO, Kaj Van De Loo
"Welcome to another episode of it visionaries today. We have the chief technology officer of user testing. Kyw vande liu kai welcome to the show thank you. I'll right right to it user testing. The name seems obvious what it's four but tell us what is user testing the company. What do they offer what you guys do as you might guess. We have. Companies tests experiences wade uses with there could be karen customers. Potential customers partners employees at people have never heard of them. What have you so essentially anybody. Who's creating an experience can use our platform to get feedback integration process whether it's an early sketch one feedback on or design before you can start developing if it's throughout the development of the experience and of course experiences that already are out in the wild and being used anything in all of that that you want experience anything that you've created any experience you've created whether digital or physical that you want feedback. So that's what i want to dive into. Because that's what's fascinating because this isn't just a product that test software. You mentioned the physical in fact on your homepage. The user testing homepage. There is a woman clearly or to me clearly providing some type of feedback on a makeup product in. You just said it. Physical as well tells the big difference between because i think a lot of people here user testing and they started thinking of software centric application inside of my software. So imagine i. I am a software maker. I install another software inside of my software in attracts users. Attracts what they do. It gives me feedback loops of how they're interacting with software but user. Testing is a little bit different tells how your unique approach to testing both software has well as physical products and we compliment all these other forms of getting insights into how your product or how your experiences used by giving you heal human insights into what people actually think while they're doing this. So tha other tools. You can get insights into what people click on and how long they dwell on a particular page or whatever it is but we connect you die wick out to your customers or your users and they tell you they think out loud. They give you their personal feedback. We court everything they do record the face as well. It's almost like you're sitting there talking to someone when they try out experience you have created whether it's a website or mobile app or visit gates periods. So did this is like being. Would someone in their home wine. they about may be tried on and they talk to you they are. They're fantastic self. It's a vaguely human connection that you build their this week. They have spilled empathy in a way that will this data that we collect another ways can never do so. How does your role in back this experience. Your customer so use your testing. It sounds like you know if i if i were to start listening to podcasts. When ray beginning not too much idea in front of it it's now starting to sound like a marketplace. It sounds like if i bring you my product you have users that will play with intest the product. They're going to be willing to record themselves. It sounds like how does the technology of what user testing provide help narrow the gap for a. Let's say when your clients for them to collect feedback. How do you guys make their lives easier. Oh there's a lot of technology involved in this whole process of you getting to the interesting moments that matter to you understand how you can improve the experience you're providing it starts with the different ways that we can define audiences so you can bring your own test participants if you want if you have. Maybe your most loyal polled listeners. If you wanna hear from them what they think if you want to hear from people who have never heard of you we have a panel of many. Many people signed up who frequently take these tests and they check in and received or something available for them to to to test that you can relatively easily cover defined people who've never heard of us. We cannot support the south spectrum of your most loyal people out to people who've never heard of you and in all of this. This quite some sophistication in how we distribute tests out to potential participants at we try to target these tests as as we can so that the participants who are most interested and most likely to be good testers that we most likely to give good feedback that we target them with a particular test. So there's a lot of technology already in just how these how you find your audience. There's a lot of interesting technology and we're doing a lot of exciting work this area. At the moment how the experience gets a coded and then perhaps the most technology intensive area is around the analysis of the results. You get just five fifteen minute videos back. That's auto time for you to sit and listen and watch all of those but that's where we have a lot of machine. Learning we transcribe everything that people say. We analyzed the transcripts for strom emotions. We count entrusting moments. We analyzed if it's a web sized we can analyze the flow through the side. We can see where people have been clicking all of this than complements what they actually said any attempts guide you towards the highlights and we can automatically highlight wheels for you and so that you as yen user who's trying to produce a better experience that through get feedback nicely packaged.
Slow Flowers with Debra Prinzing
The 19-year evolution of a retail florist with Kelly Marie Thompson of Chicago-based Fleur Inc.
"I open to flourish in two thousand and two. So that means we're just about to approach our nineteen th anniversary so we're really excited about that It won't be a normal celebration obviously but We're still really excited Yeah i opened. You know back then. I was twenty two years old fresh out of college and studied history. And i had worked in a grocery store So that's where. I really learned my background on floral. And you know. I learned just things like how to pronounce l. strom area or burnham you but i didn't have a huge training or background on. It came to design outside of my art history degree and painting degree. That's just be influencing you all the time just that discipline just cover different medium. Now i do exactly and it's It's really shaped my understanding for color and depth and texture. And i've i bring that with me every every single design Yes i opened up I had a small storefront. I really thought we were going to be a bucket flower shop on because you know boutique florist. Were really thing that long ago at least not in chicago. There were a few but it wasn't as popular of business as it has certainly grown into. No i and i do want to ask you. What do you mean by boutique because Would you know that's a term that means probably a lot different you know definition than what it is today so yeah. That's a great great question. So when i when. I came up with the idea of opening our retail boutique. I knew i wanted us all bucket flowers sort of just hand ties. Ready to go But i definitely wanted to include. Heavy selection of gifts lifestyle goods Even back you know eight nineteen years ago. I always knew that it wasn't just about flowers for me. It was always about bringing people together and gatherings and parties so as we've grown throughout the years our collections have grown and our offerings have grown. And when i'm when i'm purchasing for our retail. I always have in the back of my mind. Like how can this assist in a gathering. How can this assist in communicating and being a part of. You know the other person that i'm inviting into my life. You know Every day so it's it's really You know obviously weddings and special events or celebrations. That bring people together but are boutique is equally as important for that experience as well. So in your product mix you have a more lifestyle items that you think kind of support your flowers and vice versa. Exactly yeah lots of serving pieces for dinner parties A couple of years ago brought in fine jewelry so we now sell engagement rings which is really special part of the process. Wow oh my gosh. That's a that's an endeavor was a scary thing. It was a goal for a very long time of mine. But it's always been a dream to have somebody start their entire process of getting engaged in having flair as part of that story All the way through the last dance when we're able to help service their floral to for their wedding. Oh my goodness so. Are you in the same retail space when you first opened nineteen years ago or have you found expanded on. Come out front. Yeah we've moved twice actually Our first location the building had sold so we had to shift out. That was after. I believe three years and then we moved. We were in our second location for ten And then the landlord actually had just kind of decided they were going to move into a different direction. And honestly at that time. I really thought about closing. It was not my decision to move and there was not a lot of Opportunity in the neighborhood that we were in that i saw that was the right fit for us so i had to make a really big decision of kind of go bigger. Go home If we wanted to continue our retail and special events. And i'm really glad that i kept going with it i. It came very close to say goodbye and to the retail side thing. Oh yeah i was really just. I had a big heart to heart and I drove up to michigan for the night. I'm not too far from us in chicago and drink a little too much wine one night and wrote down all the pros and cons idea. I woke up the next morning. Just ready to go just ready to sign the new lease. I'm so we've actually. We started out with eighteen hundred square feet and we now are between both are retail and our studio. We are thirty three hundred square feet. They're kind of adjacent to each other. Exactly what is it in chicago. The logan square neighborhood on and we've always been in that neighborhood. I was really drawn. I lived in the time when we opened and i was always drawn to it because events cultural diversity and very strong artistic community that both of those still

"I'm gonna snap one top shelf hearts come through the power play to cut the lead in half. It's the Hall of Famer Pat fully on the call on NBC Sports Chicago Last night. He will join us in about 15 minutes here. The hockey show on ESPN 1000 Brian Hanley. I am Pat Boyle. That was Dylan Strom's third goal of the campaign, the on Lee tally from the Blackhawks last night. Strom also was a 10 of 16 at the faceoff dot the fourth time this season. He's 1 60% orm or off his draws, So he's off to a good start it and we were talking about finding guys that can be finishers on this team. Strong's gold last night was definitely a type of play that a finisher makes and They're asking him to step up in class here. You know, I think he was penciled in to be the third line center. With Dave's out with Doc out. He's been your your second line center with courage, Chef and Kuba leak and so far coming off the contract extension, Brian he's been fantastic. Yeah. And look if you come away without a goal in that situation on the man advantage after Kubelik had those two great opportunities. I mean, that's demoralizing, and you mentioned the face off. You know what he's doing on the dot and, you know Jonathan tapes Unsung part of his game or certainly, box fans are aware of it. But when he's on his game, you got to get the puck from the draw. Right ordered tea generate anything. So with tapes out for who knows how long you don't need guys like strong? Not not only to bury parks when you get an opportunity, but get the park and keep it in the zone, you know, Start anything you're gonna generate offense or even on a power play. So Dylan is going through some changes here. Let's just say that he's only 23 years of age right before he left for the bubble and badminton. He and his girlfriend, Taylor found out that she was pregnant. She is due in March. They're gonna have a baby girl. He is going to turn 24 in March. He just got that contract extension. I mean, this. This guy's going through a lot, You know, right here. What We also know he's like best friends with Alex to break it. And so yesterday I caught up with strong. I asked him, you know. Is he talking to Alex a lot? And how is to break it? Feeling of courses on covert 19 protocol list? Talked him a lot. Um Hopefully, it's not as long as they originally thought. So hopefully I'll see him soon. And, um, no, it's zoo. Never ideal. I mean, um, no, it's kind of the world we live in today. You know, it's It's weird how you know some guys can get it in some guy's, um, another rest of team is okay. It's Z. Just weird. It Zez really make sense. I don't think it makes sense to anyone but the reality we're living in and it sucks. And we wish it was fair ends here and everything. And just try to get through a day by day and Look for the next team. I thought the one thing he said there. That was interesting. Brian was hopefully he won't be out as long as originally thought. You know, again, we're reading into this. This is a lot of this is, uh You know things that are kept private because of HIPPA laws and covert 19 protocol. But it sounds like you know, maybe to break it might be back, maybe a little bit sooner than that. Two weeks that we originally heard. Yeah, well, the insidious part of this pandemic and this virus is it runs spectrum right from asymptomatic, too mild symptoms to I C U and worse so It's it's you know, it sounds like like he said. If you're reading between the lines there, that may be mild symptoms or no symptoms. Who knows? But, um, the good news is that there doesn't appear to be an outbreak. Right. Right s o that. That's what? You're not gonna be missing games here. Off the schedule, so good thing, they caught it, and hopefully he is going through the protocols and getting whatever you know, medical help he needs if he needs it to get through this thing. Yeah, and you, You know, so you've got wall Mark. You've got to bring kit and you've got both quest right now on that covert 19 protocol list and originally the Hawks, said Bo Quist. And the brink. It would be out for two weeks. We're still holding out hope that tape's will be back at some point again. We talked about it last week. We're not going to be in the The business of story in history of speculating is stirring up the rumors, but we we are holding out hope that tape's will be back at some point that this team needs Needs guys to help them scoring certainly five on five and so you know, it was going to be tough at the start of this season. Even if Doc and saves were available. Take those two out of the equation. Take to bring it out. Now. Take wall Mark out. Take Uh, me Lander out of the equation. I mean, it's next guy up words starting tol too. Pretty deep on that death trap. Ryan. Yeah, but you are seeing some guys emerge or guys you want to see more off. So that's good news to you know the suitors and Nick Nick Voting also in is gonna be a guy that you know you want to take a look at a little bit here and Jeremy Carlton has been talking up. His training camp. Certainly, and now, if he's going to get an opportunity here, with both fists out, we'll see. But no one had the Hawks pencil dinner intent as a playoff team..

Surstromming: The World's Smelliest Food
"There are many foods that are considered an acquired taste foods that might not be palatable the first time you try it or something that just doesn't sit right with most people. It could be something as simple as blue cheese or something like the filipino delicacy balut which is a boiled fertilized egg with the embryos still inside sweden has its own acquired tastes delicacy which has spawned hundreds of reaction videos and caused it to be banned by airlines. Learn more about sir strumming. The world smelly food on this episode of everything everywhere. Daily this episode is sponsored by audible dot com. My audiobook recommendation. Today is the almost nearly perfect people. Behind the myth of the scandinavian utopia by michael booth journalists. Michael booth has lived among the scandinavians for more than ten years and he has grown increasingly frustrated with the roast into view of this part of the world offered up by the western media in this timely audiobook. He leaves his adoptive home of denmark and embarks on a journey through all five of the nordic countries to discover who these curious tribes are the secrets of their success and most intriguing of all what they think of each other.

Why do all of them hate the swedes. you can get a free one-month trial to audible in two free audiobooks by going to audible trial dot com slash everything everywhere or by clicking on the link in the show notes the word sir strumming in swedish literally means sour fish and that is probably an understatement. More specifically sir strumming is canned fermented herring that in and of itself doesn't sound that bad. There are many fermented foods that we eat and we have no problem with them. Yogurt sauerkraut and kimchi are all fermented foods. And no-one freaks out at the idea of eating them from inflation is an ancient form of food preparation by the breakdown. Food via microorganisms like bacteria and yeast all well and good cover. There's another process of breakdown of food via micro organisms in that is called rotting serse roaming toes the line between fermentation and rotting the history of sir strumming goes back to at least the sixteenth century when we can find the first written mention of the food however the food might be very well older than that as from. It is a pretty old process. The legend of sir strumming holds that it was accidentally created by fishermen who didn't have enough salt to preserve their catch. They use less salt than normal and sold their fish to some locals and finland salt is used to inhibit microbial growth and to stop the fish from rotting. When the fishermen returned they thought the locals would be mad at them for selling them fish. That rotted instead. They love the product and wanted more of it. The fishermen tried the fish themselves and thus stroming was born today sir. Strumming is prepared. In purchasing a can while in the can the fermentation process continues fermentation results in the release of gases which means at the can will often be bulging due to high pressure inside the can the fermentation of the fish in the can result in the single most unique quality of sir strumming the smell in two thousand and two japanese study found it to be the worst smelling food in the world. The smell is so bad that it has become legendary. it's been described as rotten eggs. A dead body a dirty diaper and raw sewage but the truth is there are so few things you can really compare it to because nothing else smells quite so bad. The smell is what's made the product famous. And if it weren't for the smell it would be about as controversial as pickled herring children in sweden have been known to open a can of sir stroming school so they could get out of class. Airlines will not allow people to carry sir strumming on flights because of the high pressure in the can in the low pressure in the cabin the higher pressure differential can result in some cans rupturing spewing the smelly liquid onto the plane and. It isn't as if you can leave a plane while it's flying or open a window most famously in one thousand nine hundred one a landlord. Germany evicted attendant because they spilled a can of sir strumming in the building stairwell german laws. Make it very hard to evict people. When the eviction came to trial the landlords defense consisted of opening up a can in the courtroom. The judge have experienced the overwhelming odor ruled in favor of the landlord. If you search for sir strumming online you'll find dozens and dozens of reaction videos of people opening up the cans and trying to eat the contents. The videos mainly consists of gigging wrenching and sometimes vomiting the problem. According to the sir strumming experts is that they're eating at wrong for starters. You never want to open a canister stroming indoors for reasons which i think of established by now. Ideally you want to open the can when submerged in water that will prevent the liquid inside from spraying all over the place when it's opened alternatively you could open it while it's enclosed in a plastic bag once the liquid has been drain. You don't eat it straight from the can the herring which is put in the can. Hasn't been gutted or deboned. You need to do that. I then the traditional way of meaning it is with a swedish flat bread called tune broad along with potatoes onions and sour cream. It's usually eaten as sort of small sandwich. I've actually had the experience of trying some sir strumming and it really doesn't taste as bad as it smells ranted given that it's the worst smelling food in the world. That's a pretty low bar but it isn't bad so long as it prepared properly if you really want the full sir strumming experience. I'd have to suggest you visit the island of von in sweden's high coast. It is a center of herring fishing and it's considered. The mecca for strumming. August is considered the best season enforcers strumming. Because it's in the middle of the summer. It's also one of the best times to visit ov- on regardless the main day for eating it is the third thursday of august also known as sir strumming day. Which is the day which by royal decree you used to be able to start selling strumming. If you're there you might be able to meet ruben. Matteson who is the self proclaimed king of sir strumming. He was the person who actually served me my first serve strumming one. Is it von back in two thousand fourteen. He was involved in opening a twenty five year old. Ken of sir strumming which was found in an abandoned cabin in norway. Having been outside for a quarter century the can was quite rusted. And due to twenty five years of fermentation it was bulging a lot. The contents of the container were mostly liquid. What solid material. That did come out. Didn't really look anything.

A Way to Garden with Margaret Roach
Groundcovers With Ken Druse
"You know that I used to love for its variegated sort of silvery and green leaves. kind of almost looks like an IV ish Gr-. vining but low prostrate thing lamb the astrum galley. Dolan Yellow Archangel which you know thirty or more years ago when I planted it, it was like a coveted thing. And now it's on the invasive list in the North West and it's invading into woodland's as the climate warms. In. The Northeast and you're starting to see it on the invasive list in in new areas and so forth and I, have suddenly forty miles of it in my garden because it no longer stays. You know within a reasonable range. So I mean maybe we should I say what's the ground cover and what do we want to use anyway, right Okay The me okay. I. Think a ground cover is a plant that increases in numbers over time but does not run away or spread too fast it's usually we'd suppressing that's what we hope and we have a couple of those. And you think of ground cover is something you can walk on, but there's not a whole lot of plants that will tolerate. Being walked on besides grass lawn but a ground cover is anything that could do what I suggested I. You know spread a bit and suppress weeds and it could be seven feet tall. It can be a big SHRUB and I've seen that. But. I. Guess. What do you think is that just about it? Yeah, and and like what you said you know we think when we hear if you hear the phrase ground cover, you would think, oh, turf can walk on it but there really ain't no such things I mean there are so few things that can tolerate that I mean maybe creeping timing lawn, you could technically walk on but you know really almost none of them so So yeah. So it can be any hide I completely agree it's it's it's maybe a living mulch is. Is the. cloudy a west of landscape designer of fido studios. She says, plants are the MULCH. You know that's one of her key phrases that we need to remember and I think in a way. Like I have a lot of masses of ground cover. Like Geranium Macrocosm, the big route Geranium. Yeah and doesn't seed around doesn't it is rise Amadeus, but the rise zones don't spread sideways underground. It's of like it sounds big route on the surface. So, I find that he's unit, you can just edit it. You can pull out a bunch and throw it away and so forth but it gives you weed suppression that you were talking about right it's it's it's a living mulch It shades the ground under the trees and shrubs. Moishe helps keeps moisture and etcetera etcetera, but it's not so rambunctious that it's troublemaker It won't jump out of where it was where you intended to be. Does that make sense? Yes. There was one plant here. Twenty six years ago that some. People before I bought this place planted and I'm still. I'm still a ratting in this year. It was it was a ground cover this year. I think it almost eight the house. And the it's. Tonia. Oh Yeah Tuna however that Chameleon plant that's a nightmare. That's actually one of the most popular stories on my website ever is one of us visited from Google searches is about can I get? How can I get rid of? You know how can I kill this plant still full fill fold on Mare plant? Yeah. We've mentioned it before it is nightmare plant but but the draining macaroni him by comparison, it only exists in the places I, put it in though I started with a few plants I now have large expanses of it. It means that I don't have to weed. Those beds as often nearly evergreen even here in zone five B and you know it just does a really good We'd suppressing kind of a job. But then there's like the Lambda Strom. which wants to take over the earth and. So. Forth. So then you're you participated in its takeover. Bid And so. There's lots of things and we should say, of course, the disclaimer as ever. What is invasive in one place or becoming invasive is again, the temperature shift the the weather the climate shifts is. Is Not, the same as in another place something may self. So in Georgia that doesn't self so in Michigan and In the neighborhood yeah. Depending on soil types and exactly. There's so many things that you can grow like your angelic. I cannot grow that right for you that. COMES UP YEAH so. So I mean, the classic things that

Bytes and Pieces: Americas Chinese-Tech Attack
"As the heads of Amazon Alphabet facebook and apple were being berated in Congress, last month how many competitors did facebook ended up copying we called it Amazon heroin. Why does bny steel content from honest businesses tiktok the goofy funny video sharing app was having an altogether better time of it. Golden. Do. Not, so much anymore we're looking at Tiktok we may be banning TIKTOK. Thursday the trump. Issued a deadline of September twentieth for ending all American transactions bite dense to talks parent company as well as with. China's second most valuable, Tech Company ten cent with Para companies based in China apps like Tiktok we chat and others are significant threats to personal data of American citizens not to mention tools for CCP content censorship. China's government called the executive orders a nakedly hegemonic? act. By dense is looking for a fire sale buyer for some of its international Tiktok operations and it seems Microsoft is checking pockets. But the administration's zeal is likely to harm America's interests as well as the Chinese tech champions. We knew a band was in the offing at is still everyone by surprise Thompson booth is the economists technology and business editor I. Think most people were expecting president trump to wait until a a TIKTOK deal had gone through to reach a resolution on whether there would be a ban on not and it's also quite surprised that he's gone after we chat and tencent. And the reaction from the two companies has been quite strong. Bite dance has said that it's GonNa fight the executive orders in court. Well, as you say, there had been some expectations around Tiktok by dense. Why? Why was ten cents included in the end? Well there isn't a certain unfortunate logic to this. If you're going to say that you're concerned about Tiktok on national security and espionage grounds, you sort of have to be consistent and we chat has about nine hundred, million daily users in the US and the executive order basically bans people from making transactions on we chat which it's a sort of super APP. That is really widely used in in China and Chinese diaspora what is the trump administration's rationale for these orders? Do you think so the stated reason from the administration is the Chinese government is spying on Americans and hear the evidence is Circumstantial. So the worry is that Chinese spy agencies have stolen massive consumer data sets from various companies over the past ten years. So from Mariot Equifax anthem health insurance TIKTOK has been downloaded two billion times. It's the mother of data sets. There is no hard evidence that bite dance would ever cooperate in such an endeavor but the idea is that if you've got engineers with access to Tiktok by Don, service than the government could lean on them to get the information out. So that's the stated reason from the trump administration. Think that's enough for the American government to threaten to ban the APP. I gather from investors case to buy dance at the real reason is a level playing field issue as much as the spying concern. So one gathered that in particular. Mark, Zuckerberg of facebook has been outlining pointing out to trump that take talk is wildly successful in the US and yet facebook google than allowed into China. It's sort of the idea of why should tech top able to come to compete with us when we can't do so in the other direction? And as things stand now, Microsoft is the evidence suitor for for Tiktok operations at least in a in a few countries what's in it for them? I think for Microsoft is really stunning opportunity on their part. So bite dance reckons that the TIKTOK US asset is worth in the realm of two hundred billion dollars oversee the pudding, very generous estimate on that. So the price being talked about now that Microsoft might pay and that it's on the block for more life fifteen, forty billion. So it's just a real steel in terms of the price. I'm talking to the hottest social media property out there right now it's uses incredibly highly engaged and Microsoft you out of stroke gets into territory of the social, the digital media giants, and it gets a massive data set on teenagers daters the new oil. Attack, there is lots of sketches in the Microsoft just is kind of getting out of its core competence that it won't really know how to get and keep the teenagers. The other risk for Microsoft is just kind getting dragged into the Mile Strom of content moderation and hate speech and all this kind of stuff that attracts more political scrutiny and then regulatory scrutiny having said that Microsoft is regarded as a really high quality acquirer of businesses it generally tends to do it quite well. Microsoft. CEO Sachin Adela notably is currently probably regarded as the best big taxi. Oh so now we've got this deadline of September twentieth what happens between now and then Firstly, Microsoft going to carry on negotiating to try and buy Tiktok we're seeing more suitors for Tiktok on the scene over the weekend the reports that twitter is definitely interested I know that Netflix's on the coolest the venture capital backers of Bite Don's possibly even Disney I do think the likeliest thing is still the Microsoft probably strikes a deal just because it's got the deepest pockets will also be really interesting to see whether Microsoft manages to get more markets at. The moment, it's only going for the US, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. It's not buying the UK having the actual executive order from trump will create more uncertainty around Tiktok and there's no doubt that it is already harming the asset. It's no joke said, the clock really is taking on that deal and what about ten cents? It's unclear. What ten cents is going to do it's unlikely to try and sell international we chat as by dance is doing with Tiktok. It's possible that it could come up with some kind of structure to address. US concerns. It's a complete unknown how tencent now is going to react but I guess the question is, is the right way for America to get its concerns addressed with a problem with. It so far as that feels completely sort of ad hoc on his whim. Really undermines investor confidence in the US is the place of the rule of law. And there are alternatives and I think there's three main steps that we would advocate versus to strengthen the vetting procedure that's already in place. So the Committee on foreign investment in the US surface that probes should stop properly and quickly. So in the case of Tiktok and musically the US APP that bike dance bought therefore triggering this whole situation, they took two years to start looking at it and then did it in a rush which guarantees Robert chaotic ad, hoc situation. And overwhelmingly, the US needs to tighten up its own data privacy regime. So the reason that tiktok is such. A worry in terms of spying theoretically is that US firms, your facebook's Google's and so on her normalized that the slurping just masses of personal data from Americans. So what's required is a strong federal data privacy law. The third element is displayed to you can do in. Terms of requiring transparency into the Algorithms being used auditing code that's coming in from overseas for now, the question for those two billion or so people who've downloaded tiktok whether their favourite platforms going to survive or whether the current chaotic procedure that has affected, the company will mean it. It's rivals take it over and teens leave. Thanks very much for your time Tamsin it's been a pleasure.
