A highlight from Rising Auto Theft Rates: Urban Consequences and Solutions
"Well, you see how easy this is now. Now you look at how they move money around and how the in your face money laundering folks, this is what this is. This is corruption and fraud. Some of the Bidens are great at the money laundering part. They got 20 shell corporations, but guess who's getting the guess who's going to be controlling the funding to rebuild Ukraine. We pay to destroy it. And guess what? The Hillary Clinton Foundation gets paid the rebuild Welcome right. to the podcast. We are in the same studio today, which is kind of nice. So thanks again for downloading. If you're just listening, if you're watching or watching the clips, uh, thanks for watching as well. And just for a quick mention, so I don't forget, if you haven't downloaded our app yet, I'm noticing we're getting a lot of downloads and the cool thing is when the morning Mike's program is going Monday, Wednesday, Friday, I'm the, seeing the view count go up and up and up, which is awesome. So I know we're only, you know, we're still in the dozens. I'd like to get into the hundreds and eventually thousands, um, but it's a cool program. If you haven't listened to it, it's a quick 15 minutes to quick by morning, run down three days a week of the top five topics, three minutes each. Do a great job. They do an awesome job when we're, when we fill in the stuff. We screw the whole thing up. Yes. Yeah. We, we blow the whole, the whole, uh, the schedule, but, um, but they do awesome and they're funny. I love it. It's a quick, you know, down and dirty 15 minutes, top five items of the day. And now you get your day started off on the, uh, they, you know, I think on the right foot, they were saying this week, like, Oh, it's so negative all the time, but I think they're hilarious. They take the negative stuff that's going on, but of course the negative stuff isn't the news. Yeah. Yeah. That's what we're seeing. I mean, carjackings again, Rochester had another, you know, record night. I mean, it's incredible how that was going on. And so it's amazing is, is like the Democrats just sit around and watch this happen in every city and every city. It's insane. Yeah. I sent you an article earlier this morning about Philadelphia. Let's see. I can find it. It's, uh, not that it's anything out of, you know, anything that we don't know about, but let's see here. Philadelphia swarmed by alleged juvenile. Come on, come on. Juvenile looters targeting the Apple store, Lulu lemon and footlocker. Yeah. So, cause they're starving. They're starving. They just, just need a little piece of ham and some Turkey. They need clothes and food. That's, that's only fair. I mean, they, you know, and once again, I know we've all heard this joke, but footlocker is not missing one pair of working boots. No, no, all the Nike's, all the Nike. Yeah. Well, some of those Nike's, I mean, Oh my God. Crazy. You know, talking about like, you know, thousands of dollars for a pair of, thousands, thousands of dollars. I was talking to my daughter and she said to one, one of her friends has a, as a pair of shoes were $1 ,200. I'll never forget the most expensive pair of shoes I ever bought. We were just starting a business. This was like 30 years ago now. Right. Crazy to think. And I remember somebody told me that maybe my dad was like, you got to have a decent pair of shoes. Right. And so I went up and I bought a pair of Justin and Murphy's. They're like 120 bucks at the time. Yeah. The most money I have ever spent on a pair of shoes. Now boots, I've spent more money on since because boots are more expensive, you know, hunting boots. Well, there's a purpose to them. I still don't spend more money on shoes. Like I'm wearing like Skechers or like $40. Like some of these Nike's $500. You can't tell me you're running faster. It's different when you're going to go out and buy a pair of like waders or something. You're going to use them. First of all, you're going to use them for the next 30 years. Right. And there's a purpose to them, right? Like, okay, they're more expensive, but I can walk through the water with them. Right. But if I bought like, if I had five, 600 hour pairs of shoes, I'd be afraid to leave the house. I wouldn't, I wouldn't get off the carpeting. Well, they're targeting the Apple store here, Glenn, because they'll buy jobs. And that's the only way to get a job is to make sure you've got an Apple iPhone. So it'll be like Chicago. We talked about this the other week with, with, uh, with Mike Speraza, Chicago is now forced to open or, or just talking about opening, you know, a, a government run grocery store in the inner city because they've all that. Well, they're going to, so they're going to, they're going to, the plan is to fight the communism with more kind of communism, right? That's going to work really well. But could you imagine how inefficient, first of all, Walmart's pulled out, Costco's pulled out, all the stores have pulled out because now target, have you heard targets now closing stores across the country? So target is now going through and discussing all the stores across the country, liberal target, liberal target. They put a black lives matter that they ripped down the smash of the window. I thought that'd be some sort of a shield or that we're just going to put up this, uh, this plywood and we're going to spray black lives matter on it. Hashtag hashtag BLM. And we'll be safe as they rip it out and use that same plywood to smash the window with. It's pathetic. There'll be nothing left in these inner cities. The problem is when it starts to spill over into the, into the, Oh yeah. This is, this is where it gets ugly. Well, they want it. That's what they want. That's, that's why people like, uh, the governor of New York, uh, you know, Kathy, the ice queen, Kathy Hochul is, is, you know, they first tried the push for section eight housing in the suburbs because that was only fair. Yeah. Now they couldn't get that through because the people in the suburbs are like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Now they're busing in illegal immigrants in the middle of the night. And I tell you something, if these Democrats like Mark Poland cars were proud of what they were doing, they would have a welcoming party at noon at noon, high noon. They'd have a press conference welcoming our newest community members off the bus so that the whole community could see these family units that are getting off. You got the husband, the wives, the two kids, you know, the things that we see in our country, right? No, it's not happening. They're bringing them in at two o 'clock in the morning. So nobody sees, they're all, they're all 23 year old males, right? Or 18 to 25 year old males. Some of which are from the Congo. I don't know about the, uh, you know, the, some of the social norms in the Congo, but I'm just thinking that maybe they're a little bit different than the Western world. I don't know. I'm just thinking maybe not. Maybe they're exactly like us. I don't know. But they're exactly like us. Why would they want to come here? Why are they aspiring to come here? I don't know. Anyway, it's a fentanyl fentanyl up again, by the way, there was another report. I think it was on a Fox news. Well, good for the Republicans. I mean, at least part of them, I should say good for the five or six Republicans that are the extreme right wing, according to the media, that's holding this garbage up. No, shut the government down, shut it down, shut it down until there's no more money. Take the money, go into Ukraine and send it to Texas, which they did right to the border, which they didn't do last time. Right. Kept it open. That's what do you need? What do you need? We're out of control. The founding fathers gave the power of the purse to Congress and the, and the Pentagon, the Pentagon goes, yeah, you know what? We're just going to exempt Ukraine funding from the budget. So ha ha. We just went over 33 trillion. If you go online and look at the clock, it's moving fast, right? So we're on our way to 34 or 35. Can you even see the numbers anymore? They just blur blur now. So, so fast. Oh no. And, and good news, by the way, we're refinancing this debt at 5 % now, not at 1 % or zero like we were doing. Yeah. It makes a lot of sense. Yeah. It'd be great. Yeah. The fence talk about keeping rates higher for longer. I don't know. They're not going to be able to do that. They'll be cutting interest rates by next year. Mark by where? And the number one reason I say that is because when you talk to every economist, I say, that's not going to happen. And they are typically wrong. So if you take the, it's like saying betting against the casino, it's like saying, you know what? I don't think MGM is going to make money in the sporting books next year. Ma, they're going to figure out a way to make money. They'll rechange the lines, right? Well, you, all you need to do is look at it and get a bunch of economists in a room and ask them where they think the market's going to be and then do just the opposite and you would be way better. Yeah. Pretty much that's usually the way to go. No doubt about it. So the, the, the, the Pelosi, we were talking earlier about the Pelosi stock trader. Yeah. You can follow online. Now, some of these folks, we did the game show game last week. We talked about the, uh, the net worth. I picked the poor ones too. They were like 23, 21, you know, $20 million. Some of these folks are amazing. I mean, really just, you know, the wizards of smart on some of these are just really, timing is impeccable up here. This is somebody who is selling some software that I'll track it, which you can, you, you've pointed out, you can get it for free online, but, but the, the numbers are really astonishing. This Democrat Senator sold her Aspen vacation home for $25 million. That was just after she sold her Lake Tahoe vacation house for $36 million. Well, by the way, why, why do they own these big $25, $36 million homes? Well, a big, big part of it is because the taxation of it, right? So a Feinstein who's telling you your ordinary income tax rates are too low. She's shifting that to a capital asset, which is going to create a capital gain in the future or no gain. Or no gain. I mean, they're 10, 10 31. This is why when Donald Trump looked at Hillary Clinton right in the eye and said, you will not get rid of the carry interest deduction and you know it because all of your, I use it, of course, all of her bigger donors donate money to Hillary Clinton. And this is exactly the truth, right? They will never get rid of some of these things. Like they talked about, we're going to get rid of the 10 31 exchanges. Yaha. Yeah. Uh huh. Yeah. So the big developer strokes a giant check to the, to the Democrats off the table. Let's listen to her success though. Amazing. A Senator sold her Aspen vacation home for $25 million just after she sold her Lake Tahoe vacation house for $36 million. Only two years earlier, Diane Feinstein has been a member of the political scene for 32 years and her salary is only $130 ,000 per 130 grand a year. Now it's more now. That's a little bit dated, but it's up, it's up to probably 180 now. But, but listen to this. First of all, if it was up to 580, you're not buying $23 million homes, $36 million homes. No, no, we're going to put in multiple homes. We're going to, we're going to put the Paul Pelosi onto our research committee. You make a million dollars a year. First of all, most of, most business owners that make that kind of money, they didn't make it throughout their whole life, right? They didn't start making a million dollars at 20 years old. They started making a million dollars at 50 years old and it took 30 years to get to that point. Right? So my point is, you're not at a million dollars a year at age 50. If you did it the right way, the hard way, and you did it yourself, you're still not affording a $23 million home, right? Multiple ones. Yeah. Multiple, multiple. Right. Those aren't even her primary residence. Those are her vacation homes. She lives in, she lives in California. Listen to this though. And it's, it's all of them. It's all of them now. This is a, this is from Nancy Pelosi, stock trader. Uh, this is a tweet, uh, a Twitter feed. You can follow Pelosi tracker is what it's supposed to track or underline or something like that. You'll find it. Anyway, uh, three weeks ago, sitting politician bet against the U S economy so far. He's been right. Tom Carper bought $45 ,000 of PSQ and inverse ETF on the tech sector on eight 23, August 23rd. Since then he's plus 3 % while the market is negative 4%. Go figure. Wow. Go figure. Man, these guys are so good. Yeah. And they're not by, they're, I mean, these are, that's some pretty technical strategy. You started getting into options strategies and stuff. I mean, yeah. Yeah. These guys have become very, very slick. It's not just about buying a, you see, it used to be, okay, I'm going to buy X, Y, Z. Then I'm going to vote for or against something. You know, I'm going to short the stock and then I'm going to vote against them for both that, that, that. So the stock goes down or I'm going to vote for something, knowing that it will benefit the company. The stock will go up and in a sense front running. No, they're, they're in the options strategies now. They're in the market. Yeah. They're doing butterfly spreads. Yeah. Crazy stuff going. They're very sophisticated. They shouldn't be allowed to two things. When you go into Congress, I, you know, I would love to have a Congress person run on or present around the following platform, right? Number one, term limits, term limits, top of the list. Number two, though, while you're in Congress for the eight years, or wherever we allow you to serve 10 years, 12 years, whatever it is, you could not invest in a stock market at all. All your investments are frozen or your choices, a model, some kind of a model liquidated go to cash, or you could buy the fidelity balance to counter. You could buy the, you could buy the T -rope price, you know, target retire, whatever, you know, or you go to goes into a blind something or other where you have no idea. Right. It just goes into what you picked a one through five tolerance for risk and somebody else invest. Maybe it's just broad indexing. Maybe that's it. Right. Something that doesn't allow this kind of garbage to go on where, you know, they buy, you know, Tesla stock and then approve a huge, you know, oh, we're going to, guess what? We're going to build a, you know, for government funded battery stations all the country. Of course, Elon comes out and goes, we already got those, you idiots. I did that like four years ago, you morons. Amazing what Elon can do and what the, what the government can. Going back to target for just a second, not to digress, but I found WGRZ, thankfully came up with a list of the, uh, the target stores that will be closing, Mike, the full list of locations all in, all in Republican run. You'll be shocked. Yeah. Yeah. Right in the, uh, the thriving, the, uh, you know, thriving, the Minneapolis, uh, location, the retailer said the decision, the close was really difficult. I wonder if that was after half. That was the one they put the BLM on. Yeah. Oh, that was the one they put the sign on that said, please don't burn our store down. We love you. I hashtag BLM lit it on fire. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. Uh, let's see. I'm shocked though. I wouldn't, I'm surprised you wouldn't stay. I mean, you know, like just collecting, you love them. You love, you support them. This is what you supported. Remember you, you, you raised money, you gave money. Yeah. And guess what they did with that money. They agitators hired to whip up people in the community to smash and burn down your store. You idiots. So there you go. There you go. Nice, nice work. What else do you think, Mike? Uh, New York city's East Harlem neighborhood. That's going to be one that's goes down. I wonder why. Chicago, San Francisco for sure. San Fran. Yeah. San Fran. Uh, by the way, before I forget San Fran, Democrat San Francisco mayor, announces plan to require drug testing, which is good in an effort to, if you're going to receive homeless benefits. Right. But the funny thing was in this same passage, they're going to Texas to try to recruit police officers. The funny thing is is that the people they sent from San Francisco to try to recruit people. They didn't come back. They defected like North Koreans. Some of them got jobs. They get over the wall. They come out, they get over the wall. It was hilarious. No, they didn't go back. Well, the other five stores, Mike, three in Portland, Oregon and two in Seattle, five, three in Portland. They're pulling out of Portland together. All of these inner cities folks will be food deserts. You're going to hear that term. It'll be business deserts. It'll be nothing. Well, business deserts, nothing left, but there'll be, but target, don't forget target. Does target sell food? Yeah. Well, yeah. They sell food. Yeah. For sure. Yeah. Well, I don't go on target. So Walmart I know does Costco for sure. Costco is a food store. I don't think target is as big as Walmart as far as like fresh fruit, but definitely frozen food, all that kind of stuff. You know, aisles of pop and water and chips and right, right, right. And all that kind of stuff. But you can definitely frozen food. You can buy bulk frozen food there. So, so there's going to be food deserts, all over the place, business deserts, whatever you want to call them. You know, it's amazing because you know, the, there's no policing. And the sad thing is that is the problem. It's not, there's no policing. I shouldn't say that. Excuse me. No, you're policing your asses off. I get it. There's no ability. There's no prosecution. There's no bill. You guys are arresting people, putting them in and they go right back on the street. They're getting, they're getting appearance tickets. It's a joke. Your point is no, there is no policing anymore because of the system, the Democrats put together where the police officers aren't going to bother. If you're a police officer and you know that somebody is going to be this, this carjacking or whatever is robbery. And you know that there's a potential, you're going to get an altercation where you're in New York state. There's two police officers that have been brought up on charges recently with almost a hundred percent chance that if you do catch that person, that person will be right back. Yeah. A hundred percent. Why would you bother? Why would you bother? You're not going to put your life in line. No way. You want to go home to see your wife and kids too, and your mother or your husband or whatever. You want to be able to spend your Christmas with your family. Why would you do that? And they know that, right? The Democrats know that. This is, you can't be this stupid. I mean, who allows these people to go right back on the streets and say, this is a good idea without correcting this right away. You can say, okay, bail reform. Our intentions were one thing, but when you look at the fact that in New York state, we are now breaking records in towns like Rochester and Buffalo for the most amount of vehicles being stolen. We can say, okay, look at bail reform, put it in place. It clearly did not work. It's been a total disaster. These towns have turned to shit. We absolutely need to go back in the other direction. They're not doing that. They don't care. They want to, and they're doubling down, tripling down on it, tripling down. We invited this liberal on, you actually were on the show with him and he said, things are actually safer since bail reform. That's what his argument was. His argument was, and by the way, his argument was if we have even less police officers, cities like Buffalo will get safer. Well the thought was less police officers, less arrests. Less arrests means less crime. Dude, you got the whole thing backwards, bro. And not only that, but now we know that, right? Now we know, now you can, I mean, literally auto thefts are up 360 % in Rochester. They're not up 3%. You can say, well, you know, in Buffalo and we're in second place. And they can't play, they can't play in COVID. They're trying to like, well, it was a lockdown. People were at pent up, whatever. Remember that was the, that was the reason for the rioting and the ballooning and burning like, well, people had a lot of pent up. We probably should have locked them down. That was a little bit of the reason for the increase in suicides. You guys, you guys increased suicides because you locked kids in their homes, but it wasn't the reason that they went and decided to steal Nike sneakers from a footlocker. So check this out. Speaking of COVID, this is huge. This is, I don't know if you saw this or not, but this is absolutely ginormously huge. Dr. Fauci was smuggled into CIA headquarters without a record of entry where he participated in the analysis to influence the agency's COVID -19 investigation according to the house select subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic. Did he need to do much with these left -wing CIA agents? Probably not. No, no, no. That's what they're smuggling him in for. Well they smuggled him in because they didn't want anybody to know that he was part of the PSYOP operation, which was hydroxychloric. By the way, the I think it was a Mayo clinic and some other hospitals now have come out as well as the CDC and said hydroxychloroquine, yes, indeed is an effective treatment for COVID. Oh, by the way, ivermectin also an effective treatment. The CDC now approving that. Now mind you, we're going to keep in mind that if there was any other treatments that couldn't get the emergency use authorization for these vaccines that clearly don't work. Amazingly, I'm still seeing people online go signing off my sixth booster on our way for the sixth shot, proud to get our sixth shot. How about how about one the other day, local left -wing nut job got her sixth booster shot, six shot and she still got COVID and then she said, well, I was so good hiding and it got all my shots and then I went to a concert and I got it at this concert. Well, first of all, you don't know that, but second of all, if you have six shots and you six shots and you still got COVID and you actually think that was a good idea, you don't need a vaccination. You need a mental, you need a mental check. I tell you, I know people during the during the COVID, the height of the COVID that were older, some of our clients actually that were prescribed by a doctor a hydroxy quirk when they were taking it once a week as a as a preventative measure. Yeah. And they, to this day have never had COVID. Yeah. And it's, it's, I mean, so it, but the sad thing is again, you know, we couldn't, it's all about the money now. And that's, you know, when people talk about the evils of capitalism, you're seeing some of that. Now, capitalism is the best thing on the planet, right? As far as, you know, lifting the masses out of poverty and creating amazing amounts of wealth. But the problem is this isn't, this isn't capitalism. What's going on. This is cronyism is what's going on. It is, Hey, look at, I will give you these government dollars. You're going to get this patent. You're going to get this. Unholy marriage between business and government. Mark my word. We were talking about Feinstein selling 25, $30 million homes. This Fauci will be on the board of Pfizer. He'll be on the board of Moderna. He's going to get shares of those companies. He will be blessed with with with millions and millions of dollars. His family watch and see, we'll be talking if we're, if you and I are fortunate enough to be around 20, 30 years from now, we'll be talking about the Fauci trust and watch and monitor that trust and see how big that family trust. Well, you see how easy this is now. You look at how they move money around and how the in your face money laundering folks. This is what this is. This is corruption and fraud. Some of the Bidens are great at the money laundering part. They got 20 shell corporation, but guess who's getting the, guess who's going to be controlling the funding to rebuild Ukraine. We pay to destroy it. And guess what? The Hillary Clinton foundation gets paid to rebuild it. Right. And guess who's going to get the contracts to rebuild. Oh, that'll be probably one of the Biden family members or somebody else's politically connected. Right. Remember it was, it was a Joe Biden's brother who got the contract, the multi -billion dollar contract to rebuild Iraq. No building experience, never been a contractor, right? No idea. Right. This is why these projects cost 500 times what they're supposed to cost. This is why when money comes into Buffalo, for example, $25 million to build homes, five get built. And you were, wait a minute, five, are these $5 million homes in the East side? Each of those homes would have been built for a quarter million dollars or less. And yet where did the rest of the money go? And the, the answer is never, we don't know. We don't know. We can't account for it. Or we'd have no idea. Or I mean, how many times have we've seen that in so many places that whether right down the local level or God forbid at the federal level between, you know, Iraq and others. I was telling you last week on the radio, I was reading an article about the grants that were coming into the city of Buffalo to plant trees. And I thought, okay, wow, like this could be sweet. Okay. You know, like I'm a big tree guy. I love trees. I plant trees every year. I do think, okay, that's one way to, first of all, I think it's one way to make a community look great. When you, when you drive around, let's say North Buffalo, all the streets are all tree. They look beautiful. You drive around the East side, it looks like shit, right? So, okay. You're going to take some of my tax money and you're going to directly plant trees. Okay. It's a win for the environment. It looks nice. It's going to bring things together. I'm like, well, where's the catch? This is a government agency. Where are they going to screw it up? You read through and you find out that they're paying $1 ,000 a tree. Now you and I both know that if they're saying it's $1 ,000 a tree, by the time it's done, it'll be two to $3 ,000 a tree. Now you, you're talking about $13 million worth of trees. You and I just planted trees. Every year we plant a few trees around our office, you know, three, four in the spring, three, four in the fall, just so they can start to grow and work their way in. And then, you know, plant more. We pay $250 a tree, plant it. Right.
ACG - The Best Gaming Podcast
Fresh update on "three minutes" discussed on ACG - The Best Gaming Podcast
"People are going to buy your games more to they're just they just will. That would be mine. Make it so the consumer can get in at a price that does not allow a comparison easily because that wouldn't if you told me the PlayStation five was one hundred and fifty dollars cheaper than an Xbox Series X. It doesn't matter who I was engaged in a conversation with. I always go for cheaper. That's just sort of how I work. I'd be like, just right now, it doesn't make sense. Like, that's why Game Pass is a good equalizer currently. Those would be mine. Also, both of you guys need to go back and revisit your fucking controller tech by ran Sony. I'd be like, bitches, fix your batteries. Get your game controller, whole, whole joysticks in your game pads. No, you know, so you don't have stick drift. Make it so that those things are ironclad. What are you gonna say, Abzi? I think I know. No, batteries are. I love the Sony controller, but the battery is the biggest issue. I was I was going to add, like the pricing of the controllers is also something that's very inflated. Right. When you look at what's ridiculous. Fuck them. Excuse me. Fuck them, though. Dude. Come on. Just controllers for peripherals in general. All peripherals. Come on, man. That's ridiculous. Those controllers should be at maximum forty nine elite sixty nine elite and elites. Fucking construction is graham cracker bullshit and Microsoft. I like a lot of Microsoft stuff, but that is ridiculous. And that what's the new dual edge elite cyber PlayStation five dual sense. Fuck you, man. Like the same price as elite, I think, right? Probably. But dude, they need to throw that down to 60. That kind of stuff is. And by the way, we know they're making huge profits on those. Oh, you know, it's like you could eat away some of the profit. It's like how a restaurant makes most of its money on the on the drinks or a movie theater on the popcorn. And you go and you're like, I want some popcorn. They're like, it's seven dollars for butter. And you're like, bitch, nobody eats popcorn without butter unless you're like, you're on a sodium free diet. A lot of people here are saying that, yeah, they would definitely like the price to be dropped. Yeah. Oh, it looks like a lot of people would. So, yeah. Price is a big deal, right? I mean, you'd be able to get in. And let's be honest, guys, once you get into the ecosystem, it's easier to click that button. Oh, yeah. The buy button. Right. It's just like if I got people in at one hundred ninety nine, it's like I'd look at a game and I'd be out. Well, it was only one hundred ninety. And I and I just buy everything jello. Two dollars. Super chat, I'm assuming just because I said make it cheaper could be wrong. Game pricing is crazy on PS five game. We're going to talk about game prices in a second. ACG, can you tell us how you met Abzi, Johnny and Silver is the Sabre. All of us, their patron. I think I was on a page and were on like sixteen. We didn't talk on Twitter like I did with sleeve because sleeve was the dev and he and I talked on Twitter. No, that was you basically just handed me the invite to the first podcast for all of us. Yeah. Yeah. I think for me, after the Patreon podcast and then a couple of months after that, I joined the discord and we played we played the MMO that you loved. What the fuck was that? DC Universe. Oh, secret world. Secret world. And then after that, we just started playing other games and stuff. And then I don't know what the fuck happened, but we started doing shows and and like, you know, we used to just do shows together. Oh, yeah. Events. Call of the wild on on the thing. So, I don't know. Yeah. The hunt is I had sleeve in that game and then you and who who was it? You and take down where you weren't seeing the animals in my version or the bear. That was one of the best dreams I've ever done. When that bear attacked us in the middle of the night. I was like, this is how did it turn into a horror game right now, man? That was awesome. Dean Rivera, five dollars. Super chat sold my sixty four gigabyte steam deck with five hundred twelve gigabyte SD card for three hundred. I think I sold it too low or just about right there, like three hundred fifty nine before tax right now. Used always. Three hundred is not bad. I think three hundred is a fair price. I mean, you're selling something used. I don't know about you guys. I need a pretty good savings on used hardware. Right. Yeah. Because you never quite know where that where that's going to pop up for you exactly. Moving on from there, let's talk about Lex and Facebook. So anybody who hasn't seen this, Lex Friedman and what the the Mark Zuckerberg, the Zuck did a podcast all in VR with the new meta. And I got to admit, man, I was I was pretty impressed. I was like, it was awesome. They did face scanning, which they said isn't ready yet. But for both of them, they got their face scanned in and they did three hours, I think, with them facing each other. Let me explain to you how weird this was, guys. I don't know if you guys saw this. It's two people together with their faces ripped off digitally, sent somewhere else put together and then pasted back on them, even though they're local. And now they're in VR like it was that meta meta is perfect. It was that meta moment where you're like, you guys could have just faced each other and talked normally, but instead or you could have done it remotely. But instead, they did it face to face in VR, which was so weird. Go ahead, Silver. And for me, the faces were still major uncanny valley. For sure. Yeah, for sure. I don't know. About three minutes in, Lex looks down and his eyes go like, you know, they do that thing. But I was impressed by the scanning, by the fluidity when it's an uncut podcast. So that means you have three hours possible glitches. I only saw a couple. And what I saw looked like, dude, that like it was a good step forward in that kind of tech. Johnny, where are you going? You watch this, right? I watched the whole thing, yeah. I thought I've never seen anything like that. You know, that was my first thought. Like I didn't know we were at this level stage at this level. Because one thing is the, you know, the photo realistic. But to get actually like the movements right.
The Podcast On Podcasting
A highlight from Ep373: Skipping These Steps Affects The Value You Give Your Listeners - Alex Pardo
"Okay. Half ish, a million a year. And I'm thinking to myself like the doctors that I know, the attorneys that I know, I dated the same attorney for years and years and years. They don't make 500 grand a year. Only a couple of them, only a certain amount of them. You have to be a certain type of doctor or a certain type of attorney, but the people in this world who we all look up to and strive to have an income similar to that, they're not even pulling in a half a million a year. So I think that it's good to see how lucrative it can be if you're doing something like that. That's right. One thing I do want to stress for people listening, have a specific day and time that your episodes get released that your listener can come to expect that from you. And you might decide to do more, but I've seen too many podcasters are very inconsistent. They might release on a Tuesday, one day, nine days later, it's released on a Thursday and then two weeks later it's on a Monday. And then, you know, it's very disjointed and I don't see anybody that's done that gain any traction with podcasting. So just commit to the craft and just stay consistent is one big thing would underscore for people. I've got a couple quick questions for you, but first I want to mention one thing that I remember calling you out on that I felt was a mistake during when you were monetizing. And I think it was maybe your sponsor that you promised like 45 second ads to. Yes. And you wanted to go above and beyond for them. And I don't remember the length and I don't want to exaggerate it too much, but it may have been like double the length, like from 45 seconds, maybe a minute and a half issue was okay. Yeah. And I remember thinking like, why spend so much time on this ad on every single episode because your people start hearing it. And then after they've heard it like three or four times, then they're like, I've got to push the forward 30 seconds three times and it's over. And so I felt like it was giving less value to the sponsor by doubling the length. And so I just want to point that out to the listener right now is like a 15 second ad, a 30 second ad, a 45 second ad. These are awesome lengths. A minute is probably the longest. And I don't think you're always going above and beyond by increasing that to a minute or two or three minutes. I think you're probably giving the best value by keeping it at or around within 15 seconds of what you promised them. I now agree with you. I remember at the time hearing that feedback from you. And despite the fact that you know better, I was like, in my mind, speaking about the product or service and how much I believe in it and the deliverables, I felt that was going to add value. Now I know, no, it detracted value from it. You're a hundred percent right. Yeah. I just wanted to point that out because you have like an extremely giving heart. You're that go giver in my mind. When I read the book, go giver, you're the person that comes to my mind and I can feel it with the authenticity. I can feel it with your episodes that I can certainly feel it when you're talking about, I stopped having people pay that we're willing to pay because I didn't feel so good about that. They weren't monetizing it already. And so I stopped. And so I really liked that. I wanted to point it out. So now let's talk about just real quick, the length of an episode, not the length of the ad, but the length of the episode and number of episodes that you would recommend to podcaster another who's already kind of going or they're about to launch a podcast. You did two a week for a long, long time. I don't know exactly where you are today, but what would you recommend to the listener? Yeah, no, it's a really good question. And it depends really on the person's goals, objectives, how much they want to commit to it. My personal opinion, and I'm happy to be wrong on this or feel free to push back. My personal opinion is that it's easier to start on the lower side and ramp up if you want to versus starting on the higher side and then realize that maybe you bit off more than you could chew. I committed to two shows a week and I did that for six ish years and about a year and a half ago or so, like I realized that I had so much on my plate that it started to not serve me and recording podcasts. I remember at one point was almost taking energy from me versus giving me energy. And I'm very in tune with the things that are energy giving versus energy draining. And I started to ask myself, how does the podcast become a get to instead of a have to say it again? How does the podcast become a get to? I get to do this podcast versus a have to. I have to do this podcast. And during around a year and a half ago, if I'm being honest, for a while, the podcast felt like I have to like I have to get out of a show on Monday and Thursday. And to be honest with you, Adam, I was struggling with like content. Content used to be very free flowing. I used to be able to get on a mic and for talk for 15, 20 minutes. And I felt like it was coming from the heart. I was connecting. And around a year and a half ago, I was like, I'm kind of struggling figuring out what to talk about, man. And I don't want to just keep interviewing people because I would alternate, by the way, like on my Monday show, I would interview on my Thursday show was a solo. And so anyways, long story short, I scaled down to one show a week and now it's a get to. Now it gives me energy to hop on it. I feel like it's a rhythm and a pace. I can continue for a long time. So for the person listening, I wouldn't go any less than one show a week. I think if you're going to do one every other week, I just don't know if you're going to gain traction that way. So I would say minimum one show a week. If you think you can do two shows a week, I think you'll gain more traction, right? I know some guys that do three shows a week and I know one dude who I think still does a daily show. That's a lot. I wouldn't recommend that for too many people, but I think between one and two shows is probably a good starting spot. And then your other question, my solo shows where it's just me, I'm usually on the mic between 12 and 20 minutes. I keep a short suite and I typically try to focus on one or two like points I want to drive home when I'm interviewing someone roughly about 45 minutes. Yeah, I like that. And I don't disagree. I like the thought where you said do as many as you can comfortably handle. I like the part where you said don't bite off more than you can chew. On my end, I was doing six for a while and my company, because we serve the same person who listens, my company was doing extremely well and I slowed down to two a week. I went from six down to two. And after doing that for about a year, my company started not making as much money. And so I doubled it back to four. And around the time that this is airing, it's back up to six again. And it's because it doesn't take away from me. I like that I get to versus a half do. And to me, sometimes the solos are like shit. You've got to record a bunch of solos now because it's happening. I have to do this. But at the same time, I think right when I push record, I can get into that mindset where I'm finally I'm excited about it and I'm passionate about it again. So for me, around the time you're slowing down, I'm trying to speed it back up. So I think it's just a good conversation to have. But with this one big takeaway, at least one a week, I a hundred percent agree with that. One hundred percent. No question about that. Alex. Oh, you know what? I got to bring you back on because we're like at that 45 ish minutes that I agree with you on. I really want to talk more about personal visions. Can you give us a brief on it and maybe jump back on another show? And so I so believe in I learned about a decade or so ago from this organization called Life in Air. And I got to give them credit. I learned about the importance of creating and establishing a vision for your life, because I see so many people who they're always focused on business and growing and generating more wealth and cash flow. And there's nothing wrong with that. That's all very important. But yet I see people always spending so much time in this area of their life, i .e. business. And then yet their health suffers, their relationships suffer, their kids grow. They don't really get to know their kids. And that pains me, right? Because you're a man or a woman, you're a person first. An entrepreneur is just what you do. It's not who you are. And so I really learned the idea of like, what is it I want my life to look like without regards to money, possessions, material things, things of that nature. But what do I want to experience and what about my life to look like? Then figure out how to create and structure a business to support and enhance your desired lifestyle. And so that has served me very well. So I always now ask questions. Does this get me closer to my life's vision or does it take me further away? Prior to having a vision, any opportunity under the sun that I felt that I enjoyed or that I could monetize, I would say, okay, let's do that. And then I was stacking so much on my plate that I didn't have enough time for the things that mattered to me, like family, travel, faith, etc. Now that I have a vision, I look at an opportunity and I say, does this fit within my vision? Yes or no. And I make the decision based off of the vision, like the podcast that fit my vision. I get to help people. I get to impact. I get to communicate. It fits within my strengths. I get to do it on my timeline. I get to monetize it so it feeds the business so I can help more people that fit within my vision. Going out and traveling and speaking on stage every other weekend, that doesn't fit my vision. So I don't do it. Yeah. The life in there guys. So I hired one of them personally. And so I worked with a guy named Sean and for years he would tell me to filter everything through my vision. Yeah. And I just didn't feel like I had time to have a vision. I thought it was bogus. I thought it was silly. I thought it was a waste. And so I never did it. I mean, I didn't do it for a long time is what I mean to say. And one day I wrote it down and I committed to him that I would filter everything through that vision. And it changed everything. I started working a lot less and my income actually went up, which I didn't expect because I thought for sure it would go down. But the income went up. My happiness went up. My health went up. My relationships went up. And it was because I finally took the advice of taking a step back, looking at what I want that vision to look like, and then making everything fit around it and filtering everything through it. So I love that part a lot. Yeah. The only caveat I would add to that is if people sit down to create their vision, don't filter based on what you think is possible or isn't possible. What is it you want your life to look like? Even if you don't know how to do it, the how -to will come. What is it you want your life to look like? Get that on paper. That's a good place to end the episode today. If you're listening and I know you are, the next episode is a solo episode, just like Alex. He does every other episodes or solos. And I've got something curated that I really think is important to you. I don't want you to go anywhere. I'll see you on the next episode. If you're glad that you checked out the podcast today, if you got some value out of this episode, some actionable takeaways, I invite you to do one of three things. A, you could do a written review on Apple. Let us know what you think. Just an honest written review. B, you could share the podcast with a friend of yours who needs it. Or C, at the very least, implement what you've learned to take your business and your podcast to the next level. And I'll see you on the next episode. Bye.
The Bitboy Crypto Podcast
Fresh update on "three minutes" discussed on The Bitboy Crypto Podcast
"Where is it? Here, pull my thing down real quick. Whoa. We just met. I know. I'll buy you lunch. Oh yeah. All right. So let's say you're doing, let's just say you stay at 0.8. And then you do that, let's say you mine for a year. So this time next year will be the top of the bull market. So you have roughly 300 dynex. We're going to go to the coin, the coin perspective. So you have 300 dynex. Best website ever. No joke. I know. I know. It's a dangerous website. DNX. And we're not going to the same market cap as Bitcoin. Let's just say it gets the same as $13 dynex. Okay. So let's say you get to, our old friend dynex gets to a billion dollar market cap. What we're looking at right now is a 15 X and your 300 dynex that you mined, it could be worth $4,125. And look guys, that's nothing to, that's a nice little chunk of change for just your computer sitting around and crunching some math for a year straight. Okay. And it may have been flow, but like, look, this is four grand that you otherwise would not have. And yeah, like this is just the kind of simple gains that you can get from GPU mining. Everyone could use about $4,000. I like $4,000. That'd be a pretty sweet little chunk of change right here. Let's just go ahead and do some moon math for dynex. Let's say gets a 20 X. All right. So we did a 19 X here. So yeah, we're at $5,000 worth of dynex. What Nick, Raul Samigas says, Nick, what GPU's do you have to, I have so many, one day I'm going to pull up my Hive OS account. So you can see, I have 22 GPU's in my shed pulling about 3000 kilowatts. But you're more AMD, right? No, I'm mostly Nvidia. So the, depending on the card, cards will have fast RAM or fast clocks, usually not this, usually not both. And so I have a bunch of 5700 XT's, one 3080, a bunch of 1660 Supers, and some other mishmash of 580s and 1060s. So yeah, that's 1650 and 1660 are like the Honda Civic of the mining world. Like everybody overlooked them. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah. And I do post about mining. Why not buy the coin if mining is more expensive than just buying the same amount? Yeah. So this is, that's a great question. Nabil Khan. That's a great question. Because if you have the gear already, you can just get it, you know, gotta do it. And you can participate in the network because participating in the network requires you to download a wallet, to get involved in the mining pool, to get involved in the community, and you learn crypto better. There's no better way to learn crypto than through mining. So because you're going to get a wallet, that's because that's non-custodial. You have to get a wallet from the project. You're not going to mine to a Coinbase wallet. Kids, don't do that. Don't be that guy that's mining to a Coinbase wallet because they will take, they will drink your milkshake. Okay. Where was I going with that? So yeah, some of these, some of these coins you can't even get like Dynex, I don't think you can trade Dynex at very many places right now. So go ahead and mine it. And guess what, if you have the gear or you're going to buy some mining gear, if you're buying it in a bear market, you're paying pennies on the dollar when a whole bunch of other people 18 months from now are FOMOing in and buying mining rigs because they're like, Oh my God, Dynex is $16 a coin. Dynex is $25 a coin. I got to mine it. Guess what you can do. You can flip all that gear and sell it to the FOMOs. Okay. So not only are you getting that coin upside, like, dude, I bought Dogecoin miners at $75 a piece and I sold them at the peak of the bull run for $1,500 a piece. Okay. So profit. So yeah, that's, that's just part of the magic of mining is it gets you involved in community. It gets you involved just in the crypto ethics and principles that brought us here into the space. Plus you get to say that you're mining crypto, plus there's no KYC. Zero KYC. Any minuses to those pluses? I mean, you got to pay for electricity. Only if you cut them in half. Yeah. I mean, if you look, if you're at like a university and you don't got to pay for electricity. It's true. I'm, I'm not saying that's true. So you're saying right now, if you're in college, become an assistant until you get a computer somewhere in that building at the college. Become a teacher's assistant, get a computer, mine, mine out there in crypto and you make some money. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, look, if you're in college right now, you're already being scammed. So why not scam the scammers? So anyways, look at DynX, check out your cards. What to mine hashrate.no. Follow the good mining creators that are on YouTube. I appreciate it. I'll go ahead and do this again next week and bring up another cool coin to mine that has lots of upside. We're going for like 1950 X's from now on. That's it, but I do appreciate it. I don't know how to end the segment. Just walk away. Keep back to DZ. Bye guys. We're going to end with the X minute. It's been a great show. We're going a little bit long. So if you haven't hit the like button, please go ahead and do that for us real quick. All right. Let's just roll right into it. I think I have a couple tweets. I think a retweet or two here. Let's go ahead. What are your thoughts on Spotify AI DJs? Anyone else had experienced this guy yet? It's not bad. It's not bad. Yeah, I highly recommend checking it out. Rodney might be coming out here in the future. So looking forward to seeing him. All right, let's get into the likes one. I've talked about this guy in the past of the fit bros. And you know about the fit bro ecosphere? Yep. Just because you know, you do a lot of lifting. Those who don't know, Tim does like power lifting. He can really move some heavy weights around. It gets real toxic real quickly in that ecosphere. This is just a good guy. It's just, you know, he's not going to go into a bunch of Andrew Tate, you know, reposts or anything. The three, two, one rule. Stop eating three hours before bed. Stop drinking liquids two hours before bed. Stop looking at screens one hour before bed. Three, two, one. Do this every night for a better sleep. Great, great. Just tips there.Guys, you know, a lot of people are just talking about the the corruption of that missing billion dollars. It wasn't our money, folks. He didn't run off with a billion from American taxpayers. He ran off with the billion from a Ukrainian taxpayers as corn to Zariq. I believe that guy's name is Peru through three pretty good guy. Hey, Mike Perry. I've hung out with him before he might be involved with that Logan Dylan Danis fight. Is it gonna happen? Is it Dylan? Is it gonna happen at this point? Sounds like Logan's running away. Shout out to Mike Perry there. Just when called him, you know, the Tonya Harding of regulation. Just just a really good line right there. All right. To the audience at home is ketchup on eggs. Okay or not? I say you are a sociopath. Agree. You don't deserve to eat eggs if you're putting ketchup on your eggs. Also, if you're above 30, don't eat scrambled eggs. Well, I had scrambled eggs today. That's fine. I'll judge you later. Yeah. Ketchup on eggs. Terrible folks. Terrible folks. Which is worse, though. Ketchup on your eggs or ketchup on your steak. Oh, yeah, I'm stopping. I mean, I know people that do that in the streams. All right. All right. Well, we'll end it with just a couple on the face. Olive Garden. What about ketchup on this one? So good. Olive Garden waiter grating Parmesan cheese. Just let me know when. I'm so messed up. I think once you put yourself in a public situation like being a senator, I think you kind of have to leave yourself open to that. Yeah. U.S. Department hacked by China. Did you just say a senior tour? Because all the senators. Wow. That's good. Gavin Newsom is is is a monster, folks. It's about three minutes. So maybe check that out. But that's that's all we got for today. All right. All right. One last bit and then we're going to end the stream. We're literally ending. Caught the ball. Save the baby. Didn't drop the beer, folks. Let's just play it from the beginning one time. This is a maneuver right here. Caught catches. He literally like he like leverages the baby like he slightly tosses the baby to the like a little bit of momentum. Can you imagine what his conversation with his wife would have been had that not worked out as smoothly as it did? That's a real that's a real alpha. That guy is scared of. Yeah. And doesn't drop the bottle. He should. He should automatically win that of the year award. I think he's MLB defensive player of the year. Yes, another year. All right, folks. That's all we got. It's been a great show. Thanks for sticking around a little bit long with us. We were just having that good of a time. We'll go hang out with the fiance, get some lunch until next time. See some of you guys in the basement and maybe B.J. been there. I'll see you guys at 5 p.m.. Goodbye.
Veteran on the Move
A highlight from The CoverBag with Murp McCarthy
"Marine veteran Murph McCarthy is the creator of the cover bag the best protection for your dress hat or dress uniform cover Coming up next on veteran on the move Welcome to veteran on the move if you're a veteran in transition an entrepreneur wannabe or someone still stuck in that J -o -b trying to escape this podcast is dedicated to your success And now your host Joe Crain As a member owned not -for -profit Navy Federal puts members at the heart of every single thing they do Find out more at Navy federal org All right today we're talking with Marine Corps veteran Murph McCarthy owner of the cover bag calm and The women's rugby coach at the Naval Academy, that's pretty cool So Murph welcome to the show before we get to talking about business and entrepreneurship As a marine fellow aviator having had one of those on this show for a long time. Tell us what you did in the Marine Corps yes, so I Actually, I enlisted right out of high school and things went really well I was a tower air traffic controller and I ended up at the prep school for the Naval Academy and then graduated from the Naval Academy in 2000 then TBS and then went to down to Pensacola and When so helos went out to the FRS out there in Camp Pendleton quickly fell in love with it learned how to fly frogs Then I went to East Coast and I did two deployments on the East Coast And when I came back from that second one, there was a bunch of ospreys on the tarmac you know, I wasn't sure I wanted to get into that so I solicited my services back out to Camp Pendleton and then I ended up with the Purple Did foxes a couple deployments with them and then along the road. I got I got the the drone stink on me Stick with VMU doing drones and when it came time for me to get out of the cockpit I actually my services were sought by people other than myself To go do that again. So I went To VMU three and did a couple deployments With those guys then I came back to the Naval Academy where I was working in the Stockdale Center for ethical leadership and I was teaching leadership and that's when I started coaching rugby at the Academy in 2011 and then I had one last gig down at DITRA defense threat reduction agency where I was doing I was working on the open skies treaty which is a fascinating gig if you can get it, and I don't think you can get it anymore, but and then I retired in 2017 and You know, that was my Marine Corps story from the end of high school 92 to 2017 interesting so You know, sometimes transition is different. You're retiring because at least you got that paycheck of the month club membership, but Sometimes retirement isn't any easier than you know being in being in the military for four years and then getting out also So what was your transition like? Well, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do when I grew up You know, I was still like volunteering coaching rugby and that I Didn't see myself ever getting out of that because that was just a really fun thing for me to do It filled a lot of the you know, what you miss about the Marine Corps stuff for me But I started looking into a couple different business opportunities. I Started a business before I retired probably almost ten years before I retired and that was the cover bag and what ended up being the cover bag calm and that just grew and grew and grew to where You know, I could definitely take up a lot of time just working that when I retired But I'm I knew that was I wanted one more thing at least And that's when I started looking into other business opportunities and I got into fitness I a started franchise in Annapolis and did that I looked at a Number of other franchise opportunities, but I knew fitness was probably going to be what I wanted to do, right? So Was there an entrepreneurial bug inside of you the whole time? You're in the Marine Corps to just come about at a later time Totally. Yeah, like I've been into that kind of thing when I was since I was a kid So I remember getting in trouble for selling fireworks in the bathroom at my junior high school You know, I came up with ideas for stuff to put on ball caps Slinging t -shirts like that was always a thing but the cover bag was an idea I had when I went to the Naval Academy and You know, you're always wearing that combination cover like in the Marine Corps You're lucky especially if you're in aviation like you already ever even see that thing Yeah, buddy with the chicken you're trucking that thing all around all the time and it's white And you know, all you got to do is sit on it once or you know Be holding an ink pen that you probably should have retired a week before next to it And you gotta take the whole thing apart or buy new parts or buy a new one And I'm like man if I just had a bag for this thing, so it was like a couple years of me sketching out what it probably should look like and then designing it and then You know once you make the first couple and then you kind of go from there, but no I've always had that Hey, wouldn't this be a good idea Like I probably I probably do that like three times a week. Yeah, I've always been the same way but I think like especially when I was when you're a kid or when you're really young you have no idea how to Capitalize on your idea like yeah idea how to implement it or execute. I mean, you just don't have those capabilities and then especially nowadays with the internet and all the technology and everything and in Alibaba and China and all these resources that are available You can you could come up with a harebrained idea in just a few months be taking it to market Whereas like 20 30 years ago. It was like almost impossible to do to do. Yeah. No, and that's something you People should keep in mind. Like if you've got what you think is a crazy idea Just keep kind of fleshing it out and then you know for me it was a buddy of mine He's like, hey, I got a buddy who's got a hat and bag factory in Newark, New Jersey And why don't you send me that sketch you talked about? So I sent it to him and the guy produced a demo and And that was the first one like just like that dude. That's awesome.

So When I saw your interview come through Murph I gotta admit I'm like the cover bag and I went to your website and I saw it and I'm like ding I get it instant instant like yep thumbs up and Cuz my wife and I were Amazon sellers for many years. We're totally out of the business now. Amazon just got to be Amazon was like walking through a minefield you like you thinking you're fine all sudden kaboom your right leg's missing You're like what the fuck? anyways So we're out of Amazon now, but I loved Amazon cuz like we talked about earlier when you're when you're young You come all these hair brained ideas. That's a great idea for product That's a great idea and I could I could run them to ground and be and be putting it on Amma be putting a great product on Amazon, you know within a few months sometimes Sometimes that's not a good thing because if it turned out not to be a good idea you lose a lot of money At least I could exercise these ideas for the first time in my life. And so I have a true appreciation for a great product and I Remember, you know getting my uniforms at the Marine Corps shop or the marine the marine shop in there in Quantico And I think I still have that white shredded cardboard box with my white cover in it somewhere back in storage and and I The whole time I'm like, how am I supposed to carry this thing around? I mean for 20 plus years in the Marine Corps I carded that thing around in a cardboard box and somehow it managed to work out for him when I saw the cover bag I'm like, oh, yeah, like I get it that that's it. Like like how did how'd you just come up with that idea? It was just I mean I get it It's like it's like a problem every one of us dealt with but nobody ever thought of the idea or at least executed on the idea Yeah, well, I always thought we you know, they're expensive So all you gotta do is have to replace one and you're like man, how do I not do that again? Yeah, and that's where it started but when I had You know that run -in with my buddy's friend who said he could make me a demo I was like a demo sounds like it sounds like I'm in it But he he produced, you know The first cover bag from my sketch and I and all I had was like a little couple tweaks And he sent I ordered about 15 of them and I opened up the box of these 15 cover bags And I handed him out to the guys that were doing the color guard For the ball when we had the ball the next night and when the Marines were like, holy shit, sir This is awesome. Where'd you get these? I was like funny story like I invented that and they're like what and then I knew that I had something and that's Really? Yeah pulling my money together and like spending quality time thinking about how I was gonna do it Wow Yeah, I got like a thousand questions cuz and like I said, I'm a product guy Like I love cool products and the idea behind it. So interviewing somebody that created a product it became successful Because it was just the right idea and Let me tell you man. I don't know if you realize this bit. It is hard to find to Manufacture something in the US and it's great that this is a military product Which by the way, I want to point out like I know in the Navy Marine Corps. We call it a cover your uniform hat The other services. I'm sure the Air Force didn't call it a cover. They probably caught a hat I'm not I'm not sure about the army But you know, I want to point out a cut the cover is your official military head piece or your you know It's your military hat but in the Marine Corps Navy, we call it the cover So your product is called the cover bag But I suppose you you wouldn't have wanted to call it the hat bag because then it would have just been like anything No, and I you know how you always wondered like you watch a commercial Or hear like a radio ad you're like I'm confused but like three minutes later you're still talking about it I think some of that. Yes, I think some of that has happened with calling it the cover back You know because I thought that I was gonna be selling to guys like you and me Like I thought this was gonna be you know by the troops for the troops type thing Yeah, but I have a ton of customers that are moms and Grandmas wives like they don't know what a cover is So they're like I pick up the phone and somebody says cat bag 95 % of the time really and I just I just kind of roll with it because it's one of those You got all these old ladies buying it to you're talking about it. So let's keep that up It's like the the the Red Hat Ladies Club is buying your bag for their hats and stuff or fancy hat No, they're buying it for their husband's boyfriend's grandchildren The cover bag is a huge gift idea like I'll send I'll sell like six figures worth of these things through the Marine Corps exchanges in a year I sell a lot more than that to friends and families of people graduating Parris Island and MCRD San Diego. It's it's absolutely fascinating and Much in the same way as cover bags hat bags hat covers all that stuff My favorite is that you know, I don't pay anything for advertising like I tried it a couple times It was to me It was like wasting money because I couldn't figure out if it was doing anything at all But people will get on Facebook and argue about what should be Embroidered on the cover bag. No, it should be last name first name. No, it should just be the initials No It should be first name and then the middle name and then the last name and I'm like this is amazing because it'll go on And then the website goes ding ding ding Yeah, well I suppose you know first initial middle initial last name, you know, maybe rank before that might you know if you're selling them to all the eighth and I Marines if it becomes that if he becomes a Regular issue piece of gear. Well, then you gotta you gotta do by right? I think that's probably eventually gonna happen. Yeah Yeah, the Marines like solve a lot of your problems. They just make you do stuff The Marine Corps ever figures out. Hey, we don't want anybody walking around with a bad -looking cover again We're gonna put one of them cover bags in their c -bag issue. Yeah, that's it. That'll solve that. Yeah Yeah, well then they won't have to walk around with it in you in there with their bent arm and hand, you know So So what are some of your numbers that you can share with us or just to give us a perspective on? How successful the cover bags? Well, to be honest The company's not openly for sale, so I'm not really in tune exactly with the numbers But I've been trying to get in with the Navy exchange So the last gentleman that worked there He didn't really understand and like how the cover bag was an amazing piece of gear But they're starting to get the memo now and the main number I've been talking with them is like hey Do you know I I do over six figures worth of business with the MCX at the Navy exchanges of which there is many Many more. Can you imagine how good this would do if it was available? Yeah to the Navy first hand and then retail, you know I do I do a lot more business retail than I do goals for sale. So well, dude, that's awesome. This is good you're always gonna need to protect that cover and like I said the the parents and Girlfriends wives and grandparents are on Facebook talking about what needs to be on a cover bag and they're like, what's a cover bag? Cover and then there I am my website just gets the pinks. Yeah You know, it's like that the old the old Henry Ford story where he says Well, if I had asked the customer what they wanted, they would have said a faster horse, you know, or right There's a quote similar from Steve Jobs Like sometimes the customer doesn't really know what they're looking forward what they need until they see it You can have any color car you want as long as it's black the other Henry Ford one yeah, and The cover bags kind of like that because if you said what's one of the biggest, you know You know pain in the ass things you do you deal with with your uniform? Nobody would have said I wish I had something to carry my cover in but I mean hardly anybody would have said that but When they see when they see the cover bag, they're like, oh, yeah I want one of them because I that is a pain point for me I just never realized that there would be as ever solution for it yeah, no, it's it's a no -brainer and eat and like People that aren't, you know actively using the cover like the parents can figure out that a cover bags a great idea And the other thing is, you know, mom's don't want to be buying their kids, you know, whiskey flasks and knives Something Practical they're not gonna put alcohol in or possibly shank somebody with It works out pretty good to get him a cover back and embroidery everybody loves embroidery that Yeah Now it's got your name on it, oh, yeah The embroidery thing for the cover bag is when it really exploded Yeah, and there's a nice big surface area on the thing for plenty of embroidery you can Yeah It takes a while if you come up with a design and you want me to put it on there that takes a little more time a little more involved, but I got plenty of patch choices and You can put whatever name you want on there nicknames Like if people get too wrapped up in what name they want in there or what order I'll be like Does your does your son have a pretty cool nickname? They're like, oh, yeah, we call him Sparky.

Yeah, we're headed towards, you know, seasonal weather, it's getting lower and lower, I mean, it's still pretty hot, my friend, during the day, but that's gonna start cooling down, well, that's gonna be so nice, just open windows and then we also see that that hurricane is out there, still, but they said it slowed down a little bit and so they're hoping that it's just gonna curve back up into the Atlantic, slow down a little bit yesterday, yeah, now, five miles an hour, yeah, back to the speed, it's picked up another five, uh -oh, but it is supposed to kind of turn it back into the Atlantic, right, until they throw the spaghetti on the wall, we really don't know, yeah, we don't know, I wish they'd throw some meatballs into that spaghetti, but the speed they said is back to 160, yesterday was from 160, that's crazy, so we are back from, you know, two days ago, so, doesn't know what it's doing, I think it's like driving with your wife, you know, it's just like, have you ever drove with your ex -wife when she said something, both of them, did she ever upset you and, and, you know, this is, you never drove like that, I tried to make sure that she never drove, I learned that in the army, right, when we, when you were out of the bunker, yeah, hold on, let me just give you another Iron Curtain story, they're the, they're the, my favorite of the day now, so, uh, we were, hold on, we were probably in the army for two weeks, you know, very fresh, you still don't know what, everything smells different, you still don't know what's going on, you know, they cut your hair, you have no hair, just look like a little, like, you know, freshly born, the little dog baby, yeah, and you just, you stick the head out of the bed, it goes like, what is today, you know, you just have no idea, so every day there was a surprise, so two weeks in, they just like, uh, you know, sound the alarm, everybody full gear, and they loaded us in this, uh, you know, very sophisticated army vehicles, you know, yeah, that has absolutely, absolutely no, uh, springs or any type of, you know, uh, no shock absorbers raining, no, no suspension, so you feel little stones on, on everything, so we're going in the road, and, uh, of course, you know, the, in the cabin, there were three seats only, and, uh, you know, the older soldiers, now we're gonna sit in the, in the, on the back, which we called pig house, you know, we call it pig house, like when you're transferring pigs to slaughterhouse, that's where you put them, that's where you guys were going, so the Russian front, so you're sitting, right, so you're sitting, uh, on a bench, very, like, a very nicely cushioned bench, which was jested from piece of wood, and you have all the gear on you, right, heavy, and now imagine you're sitting, uh, on a side, uh, towards front, so you don't, you don't sit, like, in the bus, like, facing front, right, right, you're sitting on the side, so we get out of the army base, and that soldier, that older soldier, no exactly, because they did same thing to him, when he was there, yeah, but he experienced it, and I learned it, and I later on did it to my ex -wife, she really liked that, you know, you hazed your own ex -wife, I was giving her the army special, you know, just the treatment, all the time, so she did something wrong, I just, so, so what he did, all the soldiers, like, he pressed the pedal, like, to the ground, right, the truck, it takes, like, maybe half a second to pick up, right, the speed, so just, like, move forward, and then he let it go, and press the brake, and just stop, and he did it, like, maybe 15, 20 times, some guys start puking, because they couldn't, like, you're sitting side to side, right, and you're hitting each other with this heavy gear, you got car sickness, yeah, yeah, so, you know, that's what, uh, I did to my ex -wife, oh, you're horrible, so when she was, you know, just, uh, the, you know, I'm, I'm, wouldn't it have been just better to be, do it my way, just don't let her drive, no, I was driving my ex -wife, when she was telling her where to go, and what to do, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm surprised the airbag didn't explode, oh my gosh, you know, she was really close with the face to the dashboard, it's not better than my friend from England, you know, what he did to his ex -wife, no, well, she started, I think, she got upset one day, because he forgot they had the tickets to the theater, and he came, uh, you know, what do you call it, uh, socially tired, he came from this, uh, place called restaurant, you know, after work, he worked for socially gathering, yeah, and he came home socially tired, right, yeah, so, uh, he didn't want to go to the theater, he went to social gathering, he didn't want to go, he was tired, I don't want to go anywhere, well, after a few beers, he got really tired, right, so he came home, yeah, she started yelling at him that they have to go, and they have to take shower and everything, and he's, you know, kind of like, I'm not going, and all this, so, right, he said it was so much fire in the house, that he had to dress himself, and all these things, and then when he was opening the door for her to get, uh, you know, seated in the car, he slammed the door when her hand was still between the doors, did he do it on purpose, oh my god, I guess we're staying home, so he saw her hand still holding when she was getting in the car, still telling him stuff, so he just shut the door, said we end up in the ER, I told her I don't want to go to the theater, oh, I'm surprised he didn't push her back in the car and say drive yourself to the emergency room, but yes, call me when you're, so next time, get all fixed up, when your wife is telling you stuff in the car, you just pretend you're in the army, press the pedal, gas, brake, gas, brake, and if that doesn't work, slam her hand in the door, that's the treatment, uh, but that would be the, that would be definitely, that'd be the extreme, yeah, well we're getting to our segment, which is our favorite segment of, uh, I'm thinking of it, it is my favorite segment, what do you call it, uh, decades, yeah, it is, it's of the century, maybe, we've been doing this for five years, but we just started this segment last week, but I love it for five years, I do too, I love this segment for whole five years, yeah, because it is what it is, and what is this segment, we know everything that the guy who knows everything doesn't know, so there you go, that's right, and if we, if we don't know it, we'll, we'll give the answer later, yeah, we will know it, there will be time, eventually, yeah, yeah, we will get to know it, because we're, we're on the mission on, on the know, it, I love I do too, yeah, so the idea is just to bring the news around the town, the Southwest Florida, what's going on, so you, your life is a little bit more educated, so you know, these days, there are fact checkers, and all kind of different things that are providing us from finding out what really is happening, so that's why Matt and I are dedicated, we eat cake over here, drink coffee, get fed, we have little doors, so I mean, this is, there's a situation we may not gonna get out of the studio one day, but for now, we, we are able to exit, so you know, if you're listening, you may be smarter, because, yeah, because you get all kinds of information, yeah, I mean, can I give you a couple, a little bit of information you got over a couple of decades? 1960, Yeah, oil is gone in 10 years, let me give you another one, 1970s was the ice age in 10 years, so we're gonna, that kind of didn't happen, 1980s, acid rain will destroy all crops in 10 years, what's the deal with 10 years, the 90s, the ozone layer will be gone in 10 years, what year is it right now, Rich? Did it start already? I guess, and then 2000 ice caps will be gone in 10 years, so when that started, that started in 2000, well, I think, I think Al Gore need to come back and explain that to us, so what we want to do is give you news that you can use in 10 years, oh, I love it, yeah, so let me just start with this, interesting fact that happened in Ecolier County and commissioners, they actually, I guess, start thinking, you know, what to do and how to, how to, maybe they use the crystal ball, how to plan the future here, yeah, maybe, and we've been preaching this for a while, we were always saying, yes, we were, Diva and Aprils, you know, we want to bring communities together because whatever, it's gonna be day, and it's not far, but federal government is gonna be thinking, we don't have much money left, what we're gonna do and how we're gonna distribute it, maybe we're just gonna skip some of the states and states gonna say, hey, we didn't get money, so some of the counties, and this is how it's gonna go, and counties to the cities and so on and so forth, so, all the way down to the local government, you have to realize that one day you're gonna have to be your own doctor, your own, you know, lawyer, and your own gardener, and your own everything, so let's just start practicing this, let's be independent, it's like our own community, and we're coming up with solutions, our own solutions as a community and coming together, and that's what we're all about, building community, and budgets obviously are a big part of that, and we live in Collier County, I believe the greatest county in all of Florida, that's my own opinion, but now you're gonna share some information about what's going on, I mean, we have some serious issues that we're gonna have to deal with, and this, let me say this, and we get there, okay, there's two things that could happen, you either gotta cut budgets to balance the budget, or you need to raise taxes to pay for that stuff, and we can do both, you can do both, but the real thing would be is to take an assessment and find out what we really need, what programs, where we can realistically cut the budget, and the federal government is in debt, we're all in debt, and they're gonna have to finally come to grips that you just can't spend yourself into wealth, and they're gonna have to make cuts, and the way they're gonna make cuts is doing exactly what you said, they're gonna cut their funds to the states and say, you guys are now responsible for that, and where are we gonna make up the shortcomings on that, is two things like you said both, either we're gonna cut the budgets, or we're gonna raise taxes, and as citizens, and people in the community, we should be involved in that discussion, because it's gonna affect every single person one way or the other, you may be somebody that relies on some of these programs that the county's gonna start talking about, you know, the budgets, and maybe cutting, and that type of stuff, so that's why we come here and tell you, hey, be educated, we're letting you know, they're coming up with this commission meeting to start talking about the budget, and this one's gonna involve cut, and they discuss that in accounting, what they're gonna be cutting, how they're gonna be cutting, which is smarter way to do it, because they still have time, right, so I think, you know, we're going a good direction, exactly, and here we are, Diwai Naples, we would like to educate you and everybody else, instead of cutting budgets, and you know, raising taxes, why we don't just spend a little bit more money with our local businesses, because we keep them, keep them in business, and today, you know, actually yesterday, Friday, seasonal week, or in our case, two weeks of restaurant dining, for $29, $39, and $49, depends what restaurant you go to, it's available to you, so you will support our local businesses, we'll keep people employed, you know, keep the money here in our community, local taxes going into the coffer, we don't have to raise the taxes, because we just naturally, stimulating the economy, that's what it is, that's exactly right, and you brought, that's the key point right there, so if we learn this right now, we don't have to worry about it later, right, and you know, we're gonna go as far as a school district has enough money to, you know, still have teachers, and have kids in the school safe, and learning the right things, and EMS being available to come to your house quickly, because they have a full tank of gas, proper funding, yeah, proper funding, so keep this in mind, because I think it's very important, and I'm really excited that our leaders in the county are taking initiatives, and they start already, you know, this conversation, because they can, they can see the devil on the wall, yeah, the handwriting's on the wall, baby, because that's coming, no matter what, and it's the day of reckoning, they call it, and we have a lot of programs that we are preparing, one of them is, for example, Divine Naples Club, that will be just for residents of Collier County, and once you prove your residence, there's gonna be a lot of benefits you're gonna be getting, so we wanna, you know, we're gonna participate in it, we're gonna be somehow leaders into this movement as well, so you know, just keep eye on our profile, social media, website, and on EARS on this podcast, we will bring everything to your ears, yes, so that's what I have to say about community budget, you know, budgeting, and being a community, we have 23 websites in 18 languages, so you can find a lot of information that we are passionately putting together, now, that would be the most serious stone, right, and now, since it's Saturday, and you're stuffing your face, I think we should, what else is new, yeah, we should stick to food, yeah, yeah, that's, why not, yeah, that's what everybody does this weekend, right, everybody's out, you know, dining, finding dining, they only ask two crazy people, you know, sitting here, well, we're finding a way to do it here, yeah, that's true, right, we always find a way, we do, so we don't left, where there's a will, there's a way, there's no left behind, even if we call in for takeout, so I just, you know, I have nine food dishes, signature food dishes, they are so symbolic for Florida, you have ideas, oh yeah, let me start with this, I'm gonna name them, and you give me an idea of what you think about it, okay, how about this, all right, key lime pie, oh, that is a signature of Florida, and it is probably my favorite tart dish, the key lime pie is so tart, and I just love the way it's made, and there's such a different variety, different, you can get that just about at any restaurant in southwest Florida, you know, I mean, it's a staple, bro, that's the dessert of the state, right, that, I mean, that's true, and you know what's interesting about this, this was invented in Key West, in the beginning of 19th century, before even a refrigerator was invented, what did they put in it to keep it, I mean, I'm just saying, you know, the key ingredients is pie to sweetened condensed milk, yeah, so, you know, that's just like a pickled, sugar, doesn't have to be refrigerated, yeah, exactly, yeah, just so you know, if you need to, sugar sausages, it's delicious, it's delicious, gator tails, how about that, I do, but actually, I like them better in what are called gator nuggets, or gator balls, and I like them in smaller pieces, and the way I like it, I mean, some make it and saute it and do other ways, but I like it fried, there's nothing like fried gator, and I dip my gator nuggets or balls in barbecue sauce, it's my favorite, and it is a staple, again, in Florida, it's tradition, oh, I think there's been a tradition forever, since Indians, they made them, fried them, they may just ate them differently, no, they did, they've ate it, like, I'm sure that he, he didn't have alligator sushi, did you, did you live with Indians, so, you know, no, I don't know, okay, so, you don't know, I don't know, but I want to know, because we're supposed to know everything, I know, I mean, you, you pretend, like, you know, right, but maybe they do it, like, we do marshmallows, maybe they put it on a stick and roast it over the fire, that's exactly how you would do it, with sausage, yeah, let me just correct you, I mean, you always pretend, like, you know, but I'm here to make you look like you don't know, but I know, right, yeah, and to make me look, you know, like, like, you don't know, I don't know, you're right, yeah, so, Indians were always doing it, but these days, it's kind of hard to access, or get access to this food, because it's only during the open hunting season, and people that hunt for alligators need to have a license, so it's a little bit more sophisticated, but they, from the tail, there's the pieces on the top of the tail that are used for this, you know, this delicatessen, and it's only during the certain, you know, months of the year, so unless you freeze it, then you're probably gonna have it fresh, exactly, in some of the places and restaurants, there's not many of them around, but it tastes like a chicken, yeah, everything tastes like chicken, although I never say that, because gator tastes like gator to me, yeah, well, it tastes like chicken, all right, everything tastes like cabbage, do you know what that is? No, and it's, I just learned today, so we're in the know, why don't you share that with me? It's called Heart of Palm, and it's been eaten for hundreds of years, the leaves of the branches of the palm were used to construction ever, historically known for being part of the many early folks, in fact, one group of early Americans was able to repel British army attacks because of really, yeah, so part of the palm that used for construction, they also eat and they make, you know, oh, that's right, it's, they have it in cans, right? Yeah, yeah, so that's, that's, you know, the palm is all around us, we just don't know which one it is, I know, and that's just, you know, I guess back to Indians, yeah, game, there you go, conch fritters, oh, I love crunk fritters, and those things are fried also, did you know what they call that? Escargot of Florida, that's right, because the actual meat is actually a snail, most people probably wouldn't eat it if they'd known that, but usually it's chopped up and put in a fritter, a batter and fried, it's delicious, you ever had it? I don't think so, because I don't eat seafood, I don't play the balls, and I don't watch TV, would you like me to bring it so you can try it one time, it's more like a hush puppy, let me bring it, you can have it, okay, no, I don't, I don't eat seafood, well I love them, and whenever I have a go to a restaurant that has them, I try to make that my appetizer, the dish originates from Bahamas, but it's, it transfers to the kivas, that's where it starts, you know, spreading north from there, so it just gives you an idea, fried green tomatoes, oh I love it, you ever seen that movie, no, which movie, it's a movie, fried green tomatoes, but anyway, they're delicious, you ever had those, you don't like fried food, no, I don't eat much, you eat fried chicken though, well the chicken tenders, you eat fried chicken too, not much, if I bring fried chicken here to you, you're gonna eat it, I'm gonna get you Popeyes, I don't think I've ever had it, yeah, well I think I'll bring you some Popeyes, you might like it, I'm not a big Kentucky fried chicken fan, well we're gonna talk about it today, remind me, okay, yeah, all right, when we're gonna go into the national days, something important you need to know, okay, public subs, that's really interesting, yeah, you know what, I really like their bread, because bread is a sandwich, and we are, we were able to even make better sandwich with our ciabatta bread, oh yeah, and we're getting, we're getting actually, reviews, I mean a lot of people just love our sandwiches, because the ciabatta bread comes out crispy, so crispy, and we balanced all these flavors, you know, we have, strategically, yeah, we have mustards, we have tomato, greens, pickles, European pickles, meat, cheese on the sandwich, I mean, you know, we just balanced it so nicely, the sandwich from Publix is good, but it's just, I think, too big, and also, you know, there's just a lot of bread in it, right, and our sandwich is not that much bread, but it's more crispier, so it's more like a baguette, crispier type of thing, and I just love our ciabatta, I love the little charred bit a bit on it, it's just, the flavor is great, yeah, well, then we invite people, oysters, yep, and then we have a lot of oyster bars around here, Pelican Larry's is known for it, I'm not a big raw oyster fan, I like them fried, and I like them on bread, yeah, well, a sandwich, a poor boy, somebody just posted something on the social media, how they were trying to eat oysters, and they see these little maggots coming through it, after they put lemon on it, I never had oysters, I don't like them, so if you are going for oysters, be careful, make sure you don't get it because they are raw, so it could be a lot of parasites and a lot of bacteria, so just be careful, you know, it could be a problem. Strawberry shortcake, yes, well, what do you tell me? I love it, you don't like it? I like it, I like the cake, it's usually a shortbread cake, little round circle, some people make them scratch, you can buy them in grocery stores, and you just cut up your strawberries, you can add a little syrup to it if you like, to make it a little sweeter, I like to just have mine fresh with the strawberry juice, and then whipped cream, now I would love to have your special German whipped cream on one of those, and a little touch for me is to sprinkle a little bit of nuts on top of it, that's my own personal way of doing strawberry shortcake, but I love it. Great idea, but you know what, it's really interesting to know that strawberry shortcake came from Florida, and it's from town that is called Plant City, and it's the smallest town in Helzberg County, about 15 minutes from Tampa, and they produce 15 % of the strawberries sold in the United States.

I got that weather today and we're gonna have a sunny day in the beginning, it's gonna be 99 it was today and we're gonna get down to a low of 78, a little bit of rain at 9 o 'clock, about a 70 % chance, then at 10 o 'clock 50 and at 11 o 'clock 40 % chance, so we're gonna have a pretty nice day, do you think we're gonna have rain? Yeah, we're headed towards, you know, seasonal weather, it's getting lower and lower, I mean, it's still pretty hot, my friend, during the day, but that's gonna start cooling down, well, that's gonna be so nice, just open windows and then we also see that that hurricane is out there, still, but they said it slowed down a little bit and so they're hoping that it's just gonna curve back up into the Atlantic, slow down a little bit yesterday, yeah, now, five miles an hour, yeah, back to the speed, it's picked up another five, uh -oh, but it is supposed to kind of turn it back into the Atlantic, right, until they throw the spaghetti on the wall, we really don't know, yeah, we don't know, I wish they'd throw some meatballs into that spaghetti, but the speed they said is back to 160, yesterday was from 160, that's crazy, so we are back from, you know, two days ago, so, doesn't know what it's doing, I think it's like driving with your wife, you know, it's just like, have you ever drove with your ex -wife when she said something, both of them, did she ever upset you and, and, you know, this is, you never drove like that, I tried to make sure that she never drove, I learned that in the army, right, when we, when you were out of the bunker, yeah, hold on, let me just give you another Iron Curtain story, they're the, they're the, my favorite of the day now, so, uh, we were, hold on, we were probably in the army for two weeks, you know, very fresh, you still don't know what, everything smells different, you still don't know what's going on, you know, they cut your hair, you have no hair, just look like a little, like, you know, freshly born, the little dog baby, yeah, and you just, you stick the head out of the bed, it goes like, what is today, you know, you just have no idea, so every day there was a surprise, so two weeks in, they just like, uh, you know, sound the alarm, everybody full gear, and they loaded us in this, uh, you know, very sophisticated army vehicles, you know, yeah, that has absolutely, absolutely no, uh, springs or any type of, you know, uh, no shock absorbers raining, no, no suspension, so you feel little stones on, on everything, so we're going in the road, and, uh, of course, you know, the, in the cabin, there were three seats only, and, uh, you know, the older soldiers, now we're gonna sit in the, in the, on the back, which we called pig house, you know, we call it pig house, like when you're transferring pigs to slaughterhouse, that's where you put them, that's where you guys were going, so the Russian front, so you're sitting, right, so you're sitting, uh, on a bench, very, like, a very nicely cushioned bench, which was jested from piece of wood, and you have all the gear on you, right, heavy, and now imagine you're sitting, uh, on a side, uh, towards front, so you don't, you don't sit, like, in the bus, like, facing front, right, right, you're sitting on the side, so we get out of the army base, and that soldier, that older soldier, no exactly, because they did same thing to him, when he was there, yeah, but he experienced it, and I learned it, and I later on did it to my ex -wife, she really liked that, you know, you hazed your own ex -wife, I was giving her the army special, you know, just the treatment, all the time, so she did something wrong, I just, so, so what he did, all the soldiers, like, he pressed the pedal, like, to the ground, right, the truck, it takes, like, maybe half a second to pick up, right, the speed, so just, like, move forward, and then he let it go, and press the brake, and just stop, and he did it, like, maybe 15, 20 times, some guys start puking, because they couldn't, like, you're sitting side to side, right, and you're hitting each other with this heavy gear, you got car sickness, yeah, yeah, so, you know, that's what, uh, I did to my ex -wife, oh, you're horrible, so when she was, you know, just, uh, the, you know, I'm, I'm, wouldn't it have been just better to be, do it my way, just don't let her drive, no, I was driving my ex -wife, when she was telling her where to go, and what to do, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm surprised the airbag didn't explode, oh my gosh, you know, she was really close with the face to the dashboard, it's not better than my friend from England, you know, what he did to his ex -wife, no, well, she started, I think, she got upset one day, because he forgot they had the tickets to the theater, and he came, uh, you know, what do you call it, uh, socially tired, he came from this, uh, place called restaurant, you know, after work, he worked for socially gathering, yeah, and he came home socially tired, right, yeah, so, uh, he didn't want to go to the theater, he went to social gathering, he didn't want to go, he was tired, I don't want to go anywhere, well, after a few beers, he got really tired, right, so he came home, yeah, she started yelling at him that they have to go, and they have to take shower and everything, and he's, you know, kind of like, I'm not going, and all this, so, right, he said it was so much fire in the house, that he had to dress himself, and all these things, and then when he was opening the door for her to get, uh, you know, seated in the car, he slammed the door when her hand was still between the doors, did he do it on purpose, oh my god, I guess we're staying home, so he saw her hand still holding when she was getting in the car, still telling him stuff, so he just shut the door, said we end up in the ER, I told her I don't want to go to the theater, oh, I'm surprised he didn't push her back in the car and say drive yourself to the emergency room, but yes, call me when you're, so next time, get all fixed up, when your wife is telling you stuff in the car, you just pretend you're in the army, press the pedal, gas, brake, gas, brake, and if that doesn't work, slam her hand in the door, that's the treatment, uh, but that would be the, that would be definitely, that'd be the extreme, yeah, well we're getting to our segment, which is our favorite segment of, uh, I'm thinking of it, it is my favorite segment, what do you call it, uh, decades, yeah, it is, it's of the century, maybe, we've been doing this for five years, but we just started this segment last week, but I love it for five years, I do too, I love this segment for whole five years, yeah, because it is what it is, and what is this segment, we know everything that the guy who knows everything doesn't know, so there you go, that's right, and if we, if we don't know it, we'll, we'll give the answer later, yeah, we will know it, there will be time, eventually, yeah, yeah, we will get to know it, because we're, we're on the mission on, on the know, it, I love I do too, yeah, so the idea is just to bring the news around the town, the Southwest Florida, what's going on, so you, your life is a little bit more educated, so you know, these days, there are fact checkers, and all kind of different things that are providing us from finding out what really is happening, so that's why Matt and I are dedicated, we eat cake over here, drink coffee, get fed, we have little doors, so I mean, this is, there's a situation we may not gonna get out of the studio one day, but for now, we, we are able to exit, so you know, if you're listening, you may be smarter, because, yeah, because you get all kinds of information, yeah, I mean, can I give you a couple, a little bit of information you got over a couple of decades? 1960, Yeah, oil is gone in 10 years, let me give you another one, 1970s was the ice age in 10 years, so we're gonna, that kind of didn't happen, 1980s, acid rain will destroy all crops in 10 years, what's the deal with 10 years, the 90s, the ozone layer will be gone in 10 years, what year is it right now, Rich? Did it start already? I guess, and then 2000 ice caps will be gone in 10 years, so when that started, that started in 2000, well, I think, I think Al Gore need to come back and explain that to us, so what we want to do is give you news that you can use in 10 years, oh, I love it, yeah, so let me just start with this, interesting fact that happened in Ecolier County and commissioners, they actually, I guess, start thinking, you know, what to do and how to, how to, maybe they use the crystal ball, how to plan the future here, yeah, maybe, and we've been preaching this for a while, we were always saying, yes, we were, Diva and Aprils, you know, we want to bring communities together because whatever, it's gonna be day, and it's not far, but federal government is gonna be thinking, we don't have much money left, what we're gonna do and how we're gonna distribute it, maybe we're just gonna skip some of the states and states gonna say, hey, we didn't get money, so some of the counties, and this is how it's gonna go, and counties to the cities and so on and so forth, so, all the way down to the local government, you have to realize that one day you're gonna have to be your own doctor, your own, you know, lawyer, and your own gardener, and your own everything, so let's just start practicing this, let's be independent, it's like our own community, and we're coming up with solutions, our own solutions as a community and coming together, and that's what we're all about, building community, and budgets obviously are a big part of that, and we live in Collier County, I believe the greatest county in all of Florida, that's my own opinion, but now you're gonna share some information about what's going on, I mean, we have some serious issues that we're gonna have to deal with, and this, let me say this, and we get there, okay, there's two things that could happen, you either gotta cut budgets to balance the budget, or you need to raise taxes to pay for that stuff, and we can do both, you can do both, but the real thing would be is to take an assessment and find out what we really need, what programs, where we can realistically cut the budget, and the federal government is in debt, we're all in debt, and they're gonna have to finally come to grips that you just can't spend yourself into wealth, and they're gonna have to make cuts, and the way they're gonna make cuts is doing exactly what you said, they're gonna cut their funds to the states and say, you guys are now responsible for that, and where are we gonna make up the shortcomings on that, is two things like you said both, either we're gonna cut the budgets, or we're gonna raise taxes, and as citizens, and people in the community, we should be involved in that discussion, because it's gonna affect every single person one way or the other, you may be somebody that relies on some of these programs that the county's gonna start talking about, you know, the budgets, and maybe cutting, and that type of stuff, so that's why we come here and tell you, hey, be educated, we're letting you know, they're coming up with this commission meeting to start talking about the budget, and this one's gonna involve cut, and they discuss that in accounting, what they're gonna be cutting, how they're gonna be cutting, which is smarter way to do it, because they still have time, right, so I think, you know, we're going a good direction, exactly, and here we are, Diwai Naples, we would like to educate you and everybody else, instead of cutting budgets, and you know, raising taxes, why we don't just spend a little bit more money with our local businesses, because we keep them, keep them in business, and today, you know, actually yesterday, Friday, seasonal week, or in our case, two weeks of restaurant dining, for $29, $39, and $49, depends what restaurant you go to, it's available to you, so you will support our local businesses, we'll keep people employed, you know, keep the money here in our community, local taxes going into the coffer, we don't have to raise the taxes, because we just naturally, stimulating the economy, that's what it is, that's exactly right, and you brought, that's the key point right there, so if we learn this right now, we don't have to worry about it later, right, and you know, we're gonna go as far as a school district has enough money to, you know, still have teachers, and have kids in the school safe, and learning the right things, and EMS being available to come to your house quickly, because they have a full tank of gas, proper funding, yeah, proper funding, so keep this in mind, because I think it's very important, and I'm really excited that our leaders in the county are taking initiatives, and they start already, you know, this conversation, because they can, they can see the devil on the wall, yeah, the handwriting's on the wall, baby, because that's coming, no matter what, and it's the day of reckoning, they call it, and we have a lot of programs that we are preparing, one of them is, for example, Divine Naples Club, that will be just for residents of Collier County, and once you prove your residence, there's gonna be a lot of benefits you're gonna be getting, so we wanna, you know, we're gonna participate in it, we're gonna be somehow leaders into this movement as well, so you know, just keep eye on our profile, social media, website, and on EARS on this podcast, we will bring everything to your ears, yes, so that's what I have to say about community budget, you know, budgeting, and being a community, we have 23 websites in 18 languages, so you can find a lot of information that we are passionately putting together, now, that would be the most serious stone, right, and now, since it's Saturday, and you're stuffing your face, I think we should, what else is new, yeah, we should stick to food, yeah, yeah, that's, why not, yeah, that's what everybody does this weekend, right, everybody's out, you know, dining, finding dining, they only ask two crazy people, you know, sitting here, well, we're finding a way to do it here, yeah, that's true, right, we always find a way, we do, so we don't left, where there's a will, there's a way, there's no left behind, even if we call in for takeout, so I just, you know, I have nine food dishes, signature food dishes, they are so symbolic for Florida, you have ideas, oh yeah, let me start with this, I'm gonna name them, and you give me an idea of what you think about it, okay, how about this, all right, key lime pie, oh, that is a signature of Florida, and it is probably my favorite tart dish, the key lime pie is so tart, and I just love the way it's made, and there's such a different variety, different, you can get that just about at any restaurant in southwest Florida, you know, I mean, it's a staple, bro, that's the dessert of the state, right, that, I mean, that's true, and you know what's interesting about this, this was invented in Key West, in the beginning of 19th century, before even a refrigerator was invented, what did they put in it to keep it, I mean, I'm just saying, you know, the key ingredients is pie to sweetened condensed milk, yeah, so, you know, that's just like a pickled, sugar, doesn't have to be refrigerated, yeah, exactly, yeah, just so you know, if you need to, sugar sausages, it's delicious, it's delicious, gator tails, how about that, I do, but actually, I like them better in what are called gator nuggets, or gator balls, and I like them in smaller pieces, and the way I like it, I mean, some make it and saute it and do other ways, but I like it fried, there's nothing like fried gator, and I dip my gator nuggets or balls in barbecue sauce, it's my favorite, and it is a staple, again, in Florida, it's tradition, oh, I think there's been a tradition forever, since Indians, they made them, fried them, they may just ate them differently, no, they did, they've ate it, like, I'm sure that he, he didn't have alligator sushi, did you, did you live with Indians, so, you know, no, I don't know, okay, so, you don't know, I don't know, but I want to know, because we're supposed to know everything, I know, I mean, you, you pretend, like, you know, right, but maybe they do it, like, we do marshmallows, maybe they put it on a stick and roast it over the fire, that's exactly how you would do it, with sausage, yeah, let me just correct you, I mean, you always pretend, like, you know, but I'm here to make you look like you don't know, but I know, right, yeah, and to make me look, you know, like, like, you don't know, I don't know, you're right, yeah, so, Indians were always doing it, but these days, it's kind of hard to access, or get access to this food, because it's only during the open hunting season, and people that hunt for alligators need to have a license, so it's a little bit more sophisticated, but they, from the tail, there's the pieces on the top of the tail that are used for this, you know, this delicatessen, and it's only during the certain, you know, months of the year, so unless you freeze it, then you're probably gonna have it fresh, exactly, in some of the places and restaurants, there's not many of them around, but it tastes like a chicken, yeah, everything tastes like chicken, although I never say that, because gator tastes like gator to me, yeah, well, it tastes like chicken, all right, everything tastes like cabbage, do you know what that is? No, and it's, I just learned today, so we're in the know, why don't you share that with me? It's called Heart of Palm, and it's been eaten for hundreds of years, the leaves of the branches of the palm were used to construction ever, historically known for being part of the many early folks, in fact, one group of early Americans was able to repel British army attacks because of really, yeah, so part of the palm that used for construction, they also eat and they make, you know, oh, that's right, it's, they have it in cans, right? Yeah, yeah, so that's, that's, you know, the palm is all around us, we just don't know which one it is, I know, and that's just, you know, I guess back to Indians, yeah, game, there you go, conch fritters, oh, I love crunk fritters, and those things are fried also, did you know what they call that? Escargot of Florida, that's right, because the actual meat is actually a snail, most people probably wouldn't eat it if they'd known that, but usually it's chopped up and put in a fritter, a batter and fried, it's delicious, you ever had it? I don't think so, because I don't eat seafood, I don't play the balls, and I don't watch TV, would you like me to bring it so you can try it one time, it's more like a hush puppy, let me bring it, you can have it, okay, no, I don't, I don't eat seafood, well I love them, and whenever I have a go to a restaurant that has them, I try to make that my appetizer, the dish originates from Bahamas, but it's, it transfers to the kivas, that's where it starts, you know, spreading north from there, so it just gives you an idea, fried green tomatoes, oh I love it, you ever seen that movie, no, which movie, it's a movie, fried green tomatoes, but anyway, they're delicious, you ever had those, you don't like fried food, no, I don't eat much, you eat fried chicken though, well the chicken tenders, you eat fried chicken too, not much, if I bring fried chicken here to you, you're gonna eat it, I'm gonna get you Popeyes, I don't think I've ever had it, yeah, well I think I'll bring you some Popeyes, you might like it, I'm not a big Kentucky fried chicken fan, well we're gonna talk about it today, remind me, okay, yeah, all right, when we're gonna go into the national days, something important you need to know, okay, public subs, that's really interesting, yeah, you know what, I really like their bread, because bread is a sandwich, and we are, we were able to even make better sandwich with our ciabatta bread, oh yeah, and we're getting, we're getting actually, reviews, I mean a lot of people just love our sandwiches, because the ciabatta bread comes out crispy, so crispy, and we balanced all these flavors, you know, we have, strategically, yeah, we have mustards, we have tomato, greens, pickles, European pickles, meat, cheese on the sandwich, I mean, you know, we just balanced it so nicely, the sandwich from Publix is good, but it's just, I think, too big, and also, you know, there's just a lot of bread in it, right, and our sandwich is not that much bread, but it's more crispier, so it's more like a baguette, crispier type of thing, and I just love our ciabatta, I love the little charred bit a bit on it, it's just, the flavor is great, yeah, well, then we invite people, oysters, yep, and then we have a lot of oyster bars around here, Pelican Larry's is known for it, I'm not a big raw oyster fan, I like them fried, and I like them on bread, yeah, well, a sandwich, a poor boy, somebody just posted something on the social media, how they were trying to eat oysters, and they see these little maggots coming through it, after they put lemon on it, I never had oysters, I don't like them, so if you are going for oysters, be careful, make sure you don't get it because they are raw, so it could be a lot of parasites and a lot of bacteria, so just be careful, you know, it could be a problem. Strawberry shortcake, yes, well, what do you tell me? I love it, you don't like it? I like it, I like the cake, it's usually a shortbread cake, little round circle, some people make them scratch, you can buy them in grocery stores, and you just cut up your strawberries, you can add a little syrup to it if you like, to make it a little sweeter, I like to just have mine fresh with the strawberry juice, and then whipped cream, now I would love to have your special German whipped cream on one of those, and a little touch for me is to sprinkle a little bit of nuts on top of it, that's my own personal way of doing strawberry shortcake, but I love it. Great idea, but you know what, it's really interesting to know that strawberry shortcake came from Florida, and it's from town that is called Plant City, and it's the smallest town in Helzberg County, about 15 minutes from Tampa, and they produce 15 % of the strawberries sold in the United States.

My guest today is Yves Larose. Yves is the CEO of the EOS Foundation and well, we're going to learn a whole lot of stuff about the state of EOS, where it is all at today, and I think there's no better person to talk to to learn about all this than Yves himself. Welcome to the show, Yves. Welcome. Thank you for having me on, Andy. I'm looking forward to talk about EOS today. Yeah, me too. So look, to begin with, Yves, I suppose let's do what we do at the beginning of the show and I'll invite you to please introduce yourself. I'd love to just hear a little bit about your personal story and what led you to really, I suppose, getting involved with EOS and becoming CEO of the foundation. Sure. I got into blockchain really early on, very shortly after the Bitcoin whitepaper, so many, many years ago, and I kind of fell out of touch with the space. I was mining. I was mining Bitcoin at the time, and when the ASICs miners were rumoured to come about, they weren't out yet, people were able to pre -order them, they were delayed for people receiving them, but at that time, I just saw a shift happen whereby individuals would no longer really be able to be involved in the way that they had before, and that kind of decentralization aspect to it was I was seeing was going to be removed as you'd have these mega mining farms come about, and that's really when I got out of this space, but I came back in around 2016 and then really jumped in 2017, and that's when I came back in full -time essentially, and I launched a block producer on EOS. That's what attracted my attention at first. It was the EOS blockchain, generation three, letter one blockchains, promising scalability, promising this idea of mass adoption, that the technology was now ready to be able to be used, and that's really what attracted me to EOS in the first place, and that's what got me back into the space originally was this idea that people again would be able to be participants in the network in meaningful ways as kind of that promise originally that attracted me all the way back in 2009. Very good, thank you, Eve, and I remember back in those days, I guess 2017, 2018, which is around about where I began to take an interest in what was happening in the crypto markets, many listeners I'm sure will have a familiar story, and obviously the ICO boom was happening at the time, and of course, EOS actually was, I believe, one of, if not the largest ICOs of that time. I think they raised over 4 billion in the biggest initial coin offering of its era, and 4 billion, obviously, a staggering amount of money. Now, look, at the time, EOS was kind of riding high as this competitive Ethereum and had this reputation as Ethereum on steroids. I suppose that's why there was so much interest in the ICO and why so many people were fans of the platform and its promise. Now, this is a long time ago, Eve, of course, and a lot has happened since then. And if I'm honest, I'm only very vaguely aware of kind of the political machinations that have taken place since then, but that's really why you're here to kind of bring us up to date with what has gone on. And I suppose even more importantly, what is happening now, because while some people may have just assumed that EOS had kind of faded away and was a dead coin, a dead community, nothing much happening, that is not actually the case. So I don't know if that's kind of the context from me. Where do you want to jump in and begin to just start to bring people up to date, Eve? Sure. I mean, I'm sure a lot of your listeners and a lot of people out there in general echo the sentiment that you just shared. They know of the ICO. They know 2017, 2018, crazy years for crypto. And then they know of kind of the fade out and they don't know anything since. So I think addressing that and actually talking about that is a good starting point. So you're right. The ICO was the largest ICO. It's still to this date the largest ICO, and it attracted a lot of people in the crypto space at the time. If you go back and ask, the majority of people had heard of EOS, many of them had participated in the ICO for EOS, and there was a lot of expectations on what EOS would do. It was one of the first, if not the first generation three layer one blockchains. It was promising scalability, and there was some heavy hitters behind it in terms of the tech and what they'd be able to accomplish. And that clearly played a role in its early success. And I think a big part of it as well was that the founders at the time, with the money that they were raising and the money that they had raised by then, they were committing a significant portion. The majority of it back into the ecosystem in terms of investments. And we look at that now in 2023, many of the later coins that launched were backed by VCs or were backed by some prominent firms. And they were part of that model of reinvesting into developing the ecosystem itself when the network launch is pretty bare. There's very little tools, very little applications, but this concept of having a body that can redeploy capital to accelerate that early growth for those components that we know are required or at least are helpful to generate and to create and nurture an ecosystem. Having that external capital that's promised, that's committed to it is a key point of that. And unfortunately for EOS, that did not happen. So the money from the ICO race did not go to the ICO community. It was left in the hands of a private entity. And that private entity did not reinvest. And so you essentially have this community that was somewhat at the loss because they had all these expectations on their shoulders. They didn't have any capital. They didn't really have a means of assembling themselves. And the coin and the rest of the market essentially kind of caught up to it. And so you had a really a period of about two and a half, three years or so where EOS was very similar to what you're saying, where it was in a way a dead coin or a dead community. There were clearly some people still there. I was there throughout and there were others there as well. But in general, compared to the hype, compared to the fanfare of 2017, 2018, a lot of that had gone away. And a big part of that, like I mentioned, is just due to the lack of resources. You have this community, these developers that essentially gave all of their money up in the ICO and thought that there would be this idea of a centralized body that would be able to redeploy that capital, but in more effective ways. And that never materialized. So not only do they not have any capital, they don't have any means to be able to go get that capital back. And that period of time was very, very difficult at a time where competitors are also coming up and they're catching up on the tech advances that EOS had at the very beginning, although EOS still remains the fastest, most scalable blockchain. There are other components to make a thriving ecosystem that are as important, if not more important, and we're not present during that period of time. That's right. And so even be useful, then, you talked about the, I suppose, the entity that organized and ran the ICO. And as I understand it, that was block one, which at one time, if not founded or headed, Brock Pierce is the personality that people will remember as being associated with block one. So if block one has essentially acquired 4 billion in capital from the EOS ICO race, and you say that they said the intention was to over time reinvest that back into the ecosystem in a smart and sustainable way, but it seems like that didn't happen. So maybe you can give us your perspective on what block one instead did and where they are today, just as context before we come back to where EOS is at. This will be interesting. So I really can't comment on where they are today. What I do know is that if you wake up one morning, you suddenly have $4 billion. I would imagine that it likely changes what you imagine you're going to do when you wake up in the morning going forward. And as much as you may have said that you were going to commit and or had made promises of recommitting those funds, once you're sitting on that treasury, things become very real and things become very different. So I don't know what changed internally as to why they would not follow through on that, because I think they had this massive community behind them. They had an amazing product that they have built. Really, the sky was the limit for them. So why didn't they continue? That's a really good question that they'll have to answer. There's currently a class action lawsuit that has been ongoing for years that they're attempting to settle. There are a few other options out there on the table for EOS token holders, but essentially the founders of block one said one thing and they ultimately ended up doing something else. And the EOS community leveraging the tool itself, leveraging the blockchain itself, have rallied together. And since the formation of the ENF and even prior to that, essentially been taking steps to hold block one to account because as much as this is new, uncharted territory that the space itself is quite nascent, accountability still remains par for the course. And when entities such as this raise that amount of capital, there does come certain responsibilities attached to that, regardless of whether you have a written contract or not. Your words, what you say, what you do in order to accumulate that capital definitely matters a lot in the long term. And so as much as we don't know why they didn't do what they said they were going to do, the community is trying to hold them to account to make sure that this never happens to anybody else again. And would you say as block one, as Brock Pierce, are they still generally perhaps from a distance supportive of EOS and its vision, its community and its token, or are they trying to pretend that they were never around? I think it's somewhere in between. I wouldn't say that they're supportive. I would say that for a long time now, for a period of time, they would say that they were supportive, but the actions really didn't match the words and that expanded for quite some time. And once it became very apparent where as much as you want to at some point, it could be subjective that they were supporting, but at some point it became very tangible that they were not. In large part, that's where the GitHub repository account comes in because it became very clear that there was no longer any commits to it. It was night and day. It was on or off. You can't really hide from that. Outside of that, though, in terms of support, we've heard a lot of, you know, soon, it's coming soon. We'll do this. We'll do that. And it never came. And so when the community took matters in its own hands, they essentially fired block one. They essentially, and there's a lot of shenanigans that went around that time as well between Brock and block one because Brock had left Brock one at the time. A lot of shenanigans on trying to take some of the tokens that were still on chain to allocate them to Brock and block one did not own those tokens, so they weren't in their rights to be able to do so. But that was very early on in the years of ENF when the ENF essentially fired block one and made sure that those tokens would not, again, go into the hands of known entities that clearly didn't have Yoss's best interests at heart. But where they are today, what they're doing, you know, your guess is as good as mine. And look, it's a problem or a story that we've seen told time and time again in the crypto space, Eve. And it really speaks to, I suppose, you know, philosophically the weakness of humans, if you like, who were susceptible to greed and pride and you name any kind of human emotion. And on one sense, you know, that is the ethos of blockchain is kind of exists to try and take some of those problems out of the picture. But it's just early, early, early, messy days and we're not quite there yet. Correct. Yes, I think you're right on that. It's funny how if you go back to 2009, part of why Bitcoin wouldn't say it was invented, there are multiple reasons why that kind of came about or their theories in a way. But definitely at that time, if you go back to the 2008 crash, you go 2009, the 99 % versus 1%, a big part of this underlying technology and communities coming together was to take the power back from greedy corporations. And essentially EOS, again, kind of becomes that emblem, that beacon for what happens when corporate greed takes over. But as well, at the same time, when the EOS community took over, launched the ENF and essentially fired block one that also gave a lot of hope as to what this tool, this power, that this technology can do in the hands of the people where people can actually take things back, take the power back in a way that isn't necessarily possible in our traditional space because everything on blockchain makes it a little bit easier to organize, a little bit easier to kind of remove that layer of trust to find out whether or not people are token holders, whether or not they do have skin in the game. The tool itself, the technology itself is quite key for us to be able to take this back and to lead it forward, essentially. And that's something that would not have been traditionally, I'm not saying easy to do, I'm not even sure if it would have been possible to do in a traditional space. And so blockchain, very nascent, very new, but we're already starting to see what you can do with the tool, the underlying tool outside of the tokens, outside of the other use cases. Yeah, absolutely. All right, Eve, let's learn a little bit more about the EOS Network Foundation then, which is obviously close to your heart. I think you're the CEO. So, I mean, obviously, I guess we understand that the role of the foundation is to protect the interests of the EOS community and the EOS network and try and advance the network technologically and philosophically. But yeah, just expand on that and tell us what your work involves and what your goals are. Sure. So when the foundation was launched, one of the things that it was trying to address was that looking at other blockchains, especially the layer ones, big ecosystems, they have this centralized body that helps coordinate the flow of information. But it's essentially somewhat of a steward or a shepherd for the network. In our case, because the ENF wasn't created upon launch, it's, I believe, the only foundation that was appointed and created by the community years after the network launch. We created accountability mechanisms within the foundation and in the way that it receives the funding and the way that it essentially deploys that capital. And ultimately, what it was created to do was to fill that gap, to fill that void of having an entity that had a larger sums of capital that could coordinate on the behalf of the network, for example, with exchanges or with government bodies, with regulators, that type of thing. So when the regulators or when an exchange, they want to talk to one body, they want to talk to one person. When you have a network that's decentralized, just like EOS or like Ethereum, like Bitcoin, which nodes do you talk to? Which one, you know, who represents the network? That's why foundations are quite key. And so that was one of our primary goals. And since then, what we've been able to do, I mean, a big part of the job of ENF is really to reach out to the stakeholders, to the token holders, to the application developers, to the business operating on the network and find out what are they doing? What are they using the product for? And what are they needing? What's not there yet? Or what are the trends? What's coming along? And so it's this share of information, this constant input into the ENF of information and output in terms of that capital deployment, in terms of tools, et cetera, protocol features. And this is really at the core of what we started off doing when we created. And since there, in the last two years, then it's expanded to obviously have more functions outside of this. But generally at the base, that's what it is. It really is to enable businesses, developers and individuals to build on the EOS network. Yeah. And I understand then I've seen the EOS Network Foundation, you've announced a major consensus upgrade Antelope Leap 5 .0, which I believe is scheduled for launch Q4 this year. So Antelope Leap, Yves, what was involved here? Sure. So part of the ENF coming in was also that rebrand. So if we go back to this topic or the subject of Block .1 and the dead years of the EOS for a period of time, one of the things that the EOS community didn't even have was access to its own repo. So the code repo belonged to Block .1, all the assets, the icons, et cetera, all belong to Block .1. And so what the community did and what I led alongside other chains that are also using the same underlying software stack is we created Antelope. We essentially took over the code repo, added functionality to it, cleaned up a lot of what was left standing over the last remaining years prior to that, and we created Antelope. It's essentially the software stack that used to be EOSIO, was rebranded to Antelope, a lot of new features and a lot of new functions within it. So that's the base Antelope. Now with Antelope, because now we're the owners of the community, essentially it's open source, so there's no owner, but in a way we're the owners of the software, we're the maintainers, the developers, we've committed to and we've been withholding that commitment from the very beginning where we typically do a spring release that is a little bit easier. Not everybody needs to upgrade it, add some functionality, some speed, some really cool features to the software stack, and every fall or so we do breaking changes. We do consensus upgrades. And the next one coming up that you just mentioned, Leap 5 .0, it's our latest consensus upgrade that we'll be doing. We did one last September, September, October of last year. This one is quite big because this one will fundamentally change the consensus algorithm at the base of EOS, whereas right now it's DPOS, it's Delegated Proof of Stake. This will move it to something that's more in line with what Hot Stuff is, and the Hot Stuff was used by Facebook for their Libra project that never ended up launching. But that consensus algorithm is very powerful, and that's what we're switching to, and that'll open up a whole new world of possibilities in the way that consensus is currently reached on EOS, splitting that up within multiple roles if we want to, and then adding a number of validators that's just not currently possible at the same time of reducing finality that currently stands at around 180 seconds, so about three minutes, down to within a few seconds, between one to four seconds or so. So it's a major technological upgrade that's coming up, but also opens the door to governance change possibilities in the future as well. Hey, very nicely said, Yves. Look, it sounds great. What would you say to anyone in the EOS community? I'm sure the real community stalwarts, if you like, are probably deep in the weeds already, and they know all this stuff, but maybe for people who aren't quite up to speed with where the project is at, maybe they had some EOS tokens back in the day. Maybe they're still holding some, hoping for a revival, or for people listening to this and they're trying to get a sense of, man, this sounds good. Can Yves bring EOS back from, I don't know where you are on the market cap table, but from, as a top 10 coin, can you make it back to the top 10? Just give us a sense of where you'd like to take EOS again and what people should look for. That's a good segue. I mean, we used to be top 10, we're currently roughly, we flow between 40s and 50s, but the goal is definitely to be back into the top 10. And that's a huge challenge. Nobody's ever been able to pull that off as far as we know. And so if you do have EOS tokens, or if you're interested in the EOS blockchain, there's definitely a lot of activity going on. There's a lot of progress, a lot of applications developing, a lot of applications migrating over from other chains onto EOS. And that original dream that we had with EOS, or that I know part of what sold me to EOS was this idea of scalability, this idea of mass adoption. And in the space in general, as a whole right now, we've not really seen anything that can be considered mass adoption. And this is where EOS really shines. And with the functions that we're adding at the end of the year, we're still pushing towards that. So this idea is that EOS was always the most scalable, the most powerful, the fastest, most reliable blockchain. That was the goal. That still remains the case. And to this date, it still is the only blockchain that's ever accomplished more than 100 million transactions per day, consistent for months on end. 124, 125 was our peak. Putting that in perspective, that was more every single day than Bitcoin and Ethereum for an entire year. So EOS is really made, and to this date, that's still the case, added an extremely cheap or very low cost all while being reliable. So the network hasn't gone down and it's essentially been 100 % uptime since June 2018. So that's five years and counting. Part of what is attracting or what we're positioning ourselves for is we believe that at some point there's going to be another bull market. And at some point there's going to be an application or a type of application or some kind of a use case that is going to open the floodgates onto crypto from mainstream stakeholders. And they'll need a home where they are, and developers will need a home where they can deploy their applications and everybody can actually start leveraging using this technology. And very few people are capable of doing that. Very few networks will be able to host that. And we're still working towards being able to do that. And it's a huge challenge. So to be able to process hundreds of millions of transactions per day reliably at a marginal, basically low cost, negligible cost is a huge, huge, huge feat. So everything we do, we've been continuing down that path, positioning ourselves for when that moment comes. We got a glimpse of this with GameFi last year with some play to earn games. We started seeing volume that was much higher than normal from regular adoption. Now we've seen that died out again with the current bear, but we're hoping to see that and more come back out again with the next bull. And yes, we'll be ready for it.
The Financial Guys
A highlight from American Identity
"They don't care if it's a pile of ashes as long as they're in charge of it. Alrighty, welcome back. Mike Lohme is going to go financial guys. Place where money meets politics. And like most podcasts, we'll probably be all over the board today. Happy end of summer at Erie County Fair here. It makes me happy and makes me want to cry at the same time because our summers are just way too short here. I just feel like the Erie County Fair sort of marks one of those spots. Like, yeah, the good weather's been here, but the bad weather's coming. I am going to the demo derby this Sunday. I haven't done that in years. Actually, my buddy Tim, we put a car in years ago. He drove it. It was unbelievable. Not that these aren't men driving them now, because I think I'm going to put one together next year, but those cars were like, you know, 4 ,000 pound station wagons. The old school automobiles, the big old boats. Oh yeah, that's what we put. No, we put a Caprice in. And the car got so smashed up that you could actually, it looked like Pac -Man in the back. The back of the car got sliced open and you could see right through it. Wow, that's crazy. Yeah, now they do it with like a Prius and it lasts, what, four minutes? It's over in like three minutes? That's it? No, they go because all these guys have learned very strategic ways to sort of make the car go longer. So welding certain things underneath and all that, but it's not like the old school. You talk about, you know, smashing a Cadillac versus a station wagon, you know. Right, right, right. But all good, all good. So, where do we want to start today? Let's start with this video. Let's start with the video, yeah. Yeah, this is good. I mean, this is becoming, it's pretty obvious now. We're going to talk, I've got some, oh, I left my pad in the other room. Indictments, Poland cars, a couple different things. But I want to start with this, because this is a great video. This is Matt Kim, I don't know this kid, I've got to make sure I follow him here. He's a podcaster, I guess, but man, he just nails it. This is what these latest indictments out of Georgia, I think this guy pretty much calls it, this is out of control. This is no longer a left versus right, folks. We have to begin to realize this. This is no longer a, you know, Democrat versus Republican. This is becoming a us versus them. And I mean us being the free peoples of the world versus the global elitist who don't have our best interests at heart. You've got people like John Kerry out there talking about, well, we just have to eliminate the farms if we're going to get anywhere with global warming. This is the same guy as the polar ice caps we've gone in five years, 20 years ago. We have to eliminate the food or else people are going to die. Well, that's the point, by the way. If you looked at actually some of their data, so Al Gore's book was true, right? If we could go back through Al's book and say, hey, look, Al was 70 % right, he was 0 % right. Zero. There isn't anything that's in that book that was correct, right? Nothing. Nothing. Not a thing. Yeah, he didn't get anything right. It's not like he was like, wow, he was half off. Nothing. You can go back 40 years. Every single prediction. In the 70s it was a global ice age. Global freezing. Freezing. It was we're all going to die and we can play the videos of that. In the 80s it was acid rain and we were all going to die. And now in the 90s they moved to global warming and we're all going to die unless you give us all of your money right now. And it's an emergency. Always an emergency. And there's always a deadline. We got eight days. We got eight years. We got six months. And none of the money ever goes to specific projects to actually help the environment. The number one thing we could do is plant trees. And this would be a very easy solution. All you need to do is give people a tax break to plant trees. There'd be trees everywhere. That's all. That's all you need to do. Hey, look, we're going to allow you, if you buy up to five trees a year, we're going to allow them, you can deduct that 100 % from ordinary income. And if you're a corporation, we'll let you do whatever, 500 trees or something like that. Done. Done. There'd be trees everywhere. Wow. We don't have the money for the trees, Mike, because we have to pay the bureaucrats. See, we have to have the people who administer. If we just had more money, you know, because after we're done with, and you know, and there's a Rochester program that they just talked about, you know, we'll get to that too maybe later in the show where they talked about, well, eight years in and you know, they're still fighting poverty. Well, wouldn't you know it? Wouldn't you know it? All the money of these, of all these, you know, do good types of organizations, a lot of the time go to 99 .999 % salaries, salaries of the bureaucrats. How about this? Take a wild guess at Al Gore's not worth. No, you've got Chuckie, Chuckie Schumer, 200, 200 low. No, I'm low. 300 by now. 300, 300. Wow. 300 million. 300 million. Do you know how many trees we could plant with $300 million? I actually think he could live and his wife could live really, really well on what, 10 million? 10 million? $290 million worth of trees. That fixes a lot of communities. It fixes a lot of global warming problems, I think. They are such bullshit. It's not even funny. And what's the shame of it is shame on you Democrats that sit there and watch this crap. Right. Many republicans.

catching the tan, yeah, being deeper Mexican, yeah, you know what I'm saying, yeah, it's like, I don't know what comes, you know, like turning the toaster from lighter to darker, it can't be darker Mexican, he called me and he was in Lely, he says, oh, I gotta go, it's raining and so I knew I was supposed to prepare, it took five minutes and we had to rain here too, yeah, so, you know, it's all, you know, I was, I started at one end today, this afternoon and it was, I was down by Pine Ridge and Logan and it was raining like cats and dogs, we have to liquid up what that means, I have no idea, but it was, let's just say it was raining a lot and then, you know, I drive two or three miles and then all of a sudden the sun's breaking out again, no rain, you know what it's called, the rain, cats and dogs, no, I have no idea what it means, Jewish car wash, oh yeah, yeah, why is that, because you get the car wash from the dust and you don't have to pay for it, oh, okay, it's cheap, yeah, all right, some that's true, yeah, it just comes out and they get the sponge, unfortunately, there's so much dirt and oil and grime on the car, my car is always a lot dirtier, I mean, if you're riding toaster, that's what's gonna happen, you know, there's just gonna have some grime because that's when you're toasting and toasting, it doesn't matter what car I was driving, it's whenever I'm driving in the streets, it's a mess, yeah, that's what happens in Florida, it's a mess, yeah, that's why we have rain, to clean it up, I tell you what, today, there was a lady, she came up and she started coming here today, today was the official day, yesterday was tryout and she said she took our coffee yesterday and she was up until three o 'clock in the morning, oh my gosh, I said why you didn't call us, we have this special phone line, you know, 1 -800 number, divine divine 9, that's the, you know, and she looked at me and said are you serious, I said yeah, we used to have a sex line but we didn't get that busy, so now we have the old days of the 900 numbers and I'll be helping people and, you know, they consume our coffee, yeah, they're so jacked up and high on the coffee, so she got a rocket fuel and she said, you know what, intervention line, this is my coffee shop for everyday now, I used to go to Badass and I said to her, you know, but that's perfect because we have a coffee and then I turned around and I said and better ass, how did you, yeah, she was laughing and she ordered something, she ordered something and she said I want that sandwich, I said what is it, the one I had yesterday, I said what is it, she said chicken clucker, oh the chicken, it's not the mother clucker, no it's chicken clucker, chicken clucker, I said why are you saying chicken is mother clucker and then she started laughing, she just made a new name, chicken clucker, chicken clucker, it's basically chicken chicken, yeah, chicken chicken, chicken clucker, yeah, yeah and after, usually chickens cluck, that's what I'm saying, yeah, so you didn't catch the drift, no because I'm stupid sometimes, well I'm sorry, I'm looking at your face, I'm having to stare at this thing across, I used to be better looking when I was three and then after three years old it just went downhill, that's all right, you're all right, you'll be all right, you'll get over it, so after that we had people from Holland and they are hooked to our podcast now, so we're going international, oh good, well we were doing that anyway because the website divinenapels .com is international anyway, yeah, it's actually the largest hub for everything you need to know about Naples, that's correct, and I don't, what is it, almost 30 websites connected, 23 websites, 23 and 18, how many languages, 18, 18, I see, I remember that number, 18 different languages and that's what we're doing here, that means you know that's stupid then, yeah, I thought you were, no I'm always stupid, half as stupid as I look, but we're all right, yeah, we're doing good, so that's, we're doing good, that was quick, let's get past that, yeah, so I've been browsing through some news and what's going on here, hey why don't you share with us some news, yeah I will share that with you right now because it's Friday and people need to kind of have a weekend to think about it, right, so number one, there are some changes in the, in a lot of the like school buses routes and everything else and they install secret cameras on the buses, oh really, yeah, so if you're gonna be thinking you're gonna pass the bus, you know, monster before, yeah, I call them yellow monsters, yeah, when you see the yellow monster, you want to pass it, pass it, then be careful because they have a, they have a cameras and they read also license plate, so once you get through it, they will send you tickets, yeah, that's not gonna be pretty, yeah, well we need to be safe with kids, right, right, just slow down, so get up and take off to work or wherever you got to go a little early, yeah, but another thing is also they're changing the speed in the school zones, used to be 20 miles an hour, now it's 15, which I'm grateful for because, you know, it's, it's, as he's saying, it's important to, you know, people crossing the streets with kids.

cluck, that's what I'm saying, yeah, so you didn't catch the drift, no because I'm stupid sometimes, well I'm sorry, I'm looking at your face, I'm having to stare at this thing across, I used to be better looking when I was three and then after three years old it just went downhill, that's all right, you're all right, you'll be all right, you'll get over it, so after that we had people from Holland and they are hooked to our podcast now, so we're going international, oh good, well we were doing that anyway because the website divinenapels .com is international anyway, yeah, it's actually the largest hub for everything you need to know about Naples, that's correct, and I don't, what is it, almost 30 websites connected, 23 websites, 23 and 18, how many languages, 18, 18, I see, I remember that number, 18 different languages and that's what we're doing here, that means you know that's stupid then, yeah, I thought you were, no I'm always stupid, half as stupid as I look, but we're all right, yeah, we're doing good, so that's, we're doing good, that was quick, let's get past that, yeah, so I've been browsing through some news and what's going on here, hey why don't you share with us some news, yeah I will share that with you right now because it's Friday and people need to kind of have a weekend to think about it, right, so number one, there are some changes in the, in a lot of the like school buses routes and everything else and they install secret cameras on the buses, oh really, yeah, so if you're gonna be thinking you're gonna pass the bus, you know, monster before, yeah, I call them yellow monsters, yeah, when you see the yellow monster, you want to pass it, pass it, then be careful because they have a, they have a cameras and they read also license plate, so once you get through it, they will send you tickets, yeah, that's not gonna be pretty, yeah, well we need to be safe with kids, right, right, just slow down, so get up and take off to work or wherever you got to go a little early, yeah, but another thing is also they're changing the speed in the school zones, used to be 20 miles an hour, now it's 15, which I'm grateful for because, you know, it's, it's, as he's saying, it's important to, you know, people crossing the streets with kids.

"It is Ann Wilson's birthday, the greatness of heart magic man. Ann Wilson, 73. A voice so distinctive that... You remember when Tina Turner passed? And nobody loved Tina Turner more than me, Mike. I loved her. Oh, I don't know. People call her the... Well, I agree. Okay, well, we'll have the love off. We're tied. But there are people who said, Tina Turner, queen of rock and roll. Wait a minute, whoa, what? She had a couple of rock -tinged, poppy albums, but no, that was just weird. So then the question arose, who is? I mean, king of rock and roll might be Elvis, maybe Chuck Berry, et cetera, et cetera, but the queen, I don't know. So if there's a Mount Rushmore, Ann Wilson, Pat Benatar, Janis Joplin, I don't know who goes on that. But anyway, whatever your thought is on that, Ann Wilson is 73. Happy birthday. How was your day yesterday? It's good. I mean, I'm still sort of reeling from what is going to be a third arrest of the 45th president of the United States. Can I first say that your monologue today on the realities of January 6th is so perfect, and I don't like to kiss up to you because it always goes to your head. I love it, however. But I want to play, with your permission, I want to play, you did about three minutes. You did three to four minutes. You said it was 45 seconds, and only in your mind do you think a four -minute monologue sounds like 45 seconds. But every word of it was perfect, Mark. You're so, I want somebody to give me one single thing that has been reported, that we have any knowledge about, that could lead to Trump going to jail over January 6th. What did he say or do that would be, in anyone, any normal person's universe, considered criminal? Now, you could argue he didn't give a forceful enough speech. He didn't come out, you know, strongly enough. Strongly enough. He didn't condemn the, I mean, he did say go home after the rioting began. Took a while, but okay. But he did. Sure. Before the rioting, he said go peacefully protest. I mean, and so what you said was so eloquent and so perfect. You talk about January 6th breaking people, and you're spot on. I mean, and it breaks even media entities. I'm going to, I'm really, I don't want to be obsessed with Fox News. I was talking to an old friend of mine yesterday, a mentor, somebody that I've known for decades. And he said to me, boy, Fox News is the go -to now for me. I rely on Fox News for everything. And I've been giving this a lot of thought. Yesterday on The Five, arguably their highest -rated show, got five personalities sitting around in a gab fest. It's a very good formula, different people, liberal. They got one or two token liberals, and they got the rest are conservatives, and the conservatives always steamroll the liberals. And it's kind of fun to watch. Mark, they didn't mention this epic, disastrous, disgraceful affront one time.

"At night with rich valdes. All right, America, welcome back. We're talking about a very important topic one that plagues more people than we think and including the therapists. There are therapists that have had suicidal ideology or ideation, I should say, and have had to deal with that. And we're talking with doctor Stacy friedenthal, who's the author of loving someone with suicidal thoughts what family friends and partners can say and do and she was hearing about her own personal story, as well as what we can say and do when we're dealing with someone that approaches us saying that they're ready to check out that they're not happy anymore that if this doesn't work out, then I might as well just kill myself. And I think more and more people are hearing those things more often than they should and more often than they're used to. Doctor, welcome back. Thank you. Thank you for having me. So what is your best advice? And again, it doesn't have to be a short answer. We do have a little bit of time. Well, actually, we have probably about three minutes, but I think it's important to kind of hone in on that because I think people need something to work with. Sure, sure. So the first thing I would say is to talk about it. To directly ask somebody if they make some kind of illusion like, oh, if that happens, I'll kill myself to ask the question. What's going on? Are you being serious? Or, you know, a lot of people when they make statements like that, they really are thinking of killing themselves. Are you thinking of suicide? And then really listening and not immediately freaking out, not immediately saying, oh my God, I gotta call 9-1-1. Or, oh my gosh, we gotta get you two in the emergency room. There can be emergencies where that's needed. But most of the time, it's okay to stop and talk and listen. We know that about 14 to 15 million people a year in the United States seriously consider suicide. But just under 50,000 die by suicide. And I want to be careful in not minimize those 50,000 because that's huge to have 50,000 people in their own life. And it's also, it also means that 99.7% of people who have suicidal thoughts don't act on them or I should say don't die because there's a larger number that do act on them and survive. But my reason for saying this is that it's not always an emergency where the police need to be involved or where everyone needs to panic, it's a chance to really get to know somebody's story and what's going on with them and to listen and to try to understand. And can I say one more thing? Yeah, go right ahead. It's kind of a myth that wants somebody made up their mind. There's nothing anybody can do to stop them because there's a study that was done at people who were stopped from jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge. And they were followed up years and some length even decades later in 90% had not died by suicide. 90% were still alive. Wow. Well, that's good to know. It's encouraging. And your advice stop talk and listen and ask them if there's considering suicide. I think that's a great place to start. And I think read the book, right? Buy a copy, give one away as a gift, loving someone with suicidal thoughts, what family friends and partners can say and do by doctor Stacy friedenthal Doc. I thank you for coming on the show and giving us a glimpse into your brand new release here. It's number one, by the way, on Amazon in the coping with bipolar disorder category, definitely get a copier, get two copies and dock in the remaining few seconds we have. Let everybody know how they could follow your work, if there's a website you'd like to share. Sure, sure. I have a website speaking of suicide dot com. And that has had about 6 million. This is some site created. So that's my biggest site. But I also have a site Stacy freedom called dot com and that's where I'm going to post updates about my work and things like that. All right. And one more time on the website. Speaking of suicide dot com. And then the other one is just my name. Freedom fall dot com. Perfect. Well, everybody knows where to find you get the book it's on Amazon and wherever else you get your books, Doc, again, I want to thank you for coming on board. I really appreciate it. Thank you. Bye bye. All right, bye bye. All right, now straight ahead, we're going to get a lesson in history and again, if anybody needs help, call 9 8 8, if you're considering suicide

The Hugh Hewitt Show: Highly Concentrated
Embrace Non Sequiturs and Digressions
"Talk about digressions because I think it's key to good podcasting. Yesterday, again, I have recency bias. So what I heard yesterday, Nathan goes into the Cheetos and the one year old eating the Cheetos. And you say, I could watch a 90 minute movie of the first time you eat Cheetos. She knows are very known on the part of the orange food group, which we consider indispensable to life. And that includes everything that's got orange in it. And I thought, okay, that was a very good digression. And you stopped it after about two minutes, which was about right. Do you have an egg timer like Ben Scalia, the three minute egg timer for give the score of the game? I think I have an egg timer in my head, which is trial and error, right? That you don't want to go, I think you have it exactly right. You can't be afraid of non sequiturs. I think non sequiturs are an important part of Buckeye talk, but man, you better know when to stop. And to stop right, like retire early, right? John Elway, go out on top. Don't hang around. Leave them wanting more. So I think a couple quick non sequiturs in the course of a podcast is great. A 11 minute and 11 minute non sequitur in the middle of a podcast is not as good. So I do think you just have to be a what you really have to be aware at all times. I don't want to plan. I don't want to overplay on the podcast, but you have to be aware at all times. Maybe you don't have to put the directions in your iPhone, but man, when you're out on the road, you've got to be looking in your mirror constantly. So I feel like I'm looking in the mirrors, but then sometimes I'm a back road guy, Hugh, my wife doesn't like it, but I want to go on the back roads. I want to get lost out in the Woods sometimes. I don't want to take the straightest path from a to B but you don't want to get lost for three hours. So I think that's how I podcast as well. Does misses la Marie's love sports or does she know that that's your job and you're calling in your career? No, she knows because she's downstairs and I'm on the second floor and she gets about 86% of what I podcast through the door. So I'll be like, oh yeah, I was talking about this and she's like, I know. I heard it. So yeah, when you're in the same house as the podcaster, you know exactly what's up.

He also gets a swipe in against the maga as extremist. He's talking about you and me. He fails to mention some of his legislative achievements, like the inflation reduction act.

Joe Biden Announces Reelection Campaign With Lackluster Online Video
"The question we're facing is whether in the years ahead, we have more freedom or less freedom. More rights or fewer. I know what I want the answer to be. And I think you do too. This is not a time to be complacent. That's why I'm running for reelection. Because I know America. I know we're good and decent people. I know we're still a country that believes in honesty, respect, and treating each other with dignity. That we're a nation where we give hate no safe harbor. We believe that everyone is equal that everyone should be given a fair shot to succeed in this country. Every generation Americans have faced a moment when they have to defend democracy. Stand up for a personal freedom, stand up for the right to vote in our civil rights. And this is our moment. We must. Give it here they die. It's a pleasure so if you're with me, whom Joe Biden not concert. Let's finish this job. I know we can. Because this is the United States American. There's nothing to blame nothing we can not do if we go together. All right, a couple of things here. You know what we did not hear in this nearly three minute long reelection announcement.

Biden announces 2024 reelection bid: 'Let’s finish this job'
"President Biden has formally announced he's seeking another term. Four years ago to the day he announced his successful bid. We are in the battle for the soul of this nation. This morning. And we still are. Healing that soul has been an elusive goal in a three minute video. The president asked for another four years to finish the job, betting on two years of progress and 50 years of Washington experience outweighing concerns over an even bigger number. 86. That's how old he'd be at the end of a second term.

"And we're talking about change, change management things we've learned over the years of doing this show when we wanted to change the conversation about food and security and I think we have had some impact there, Jerry. I think that food insecurity is more top of the mind for people for decision makers for influencers. But one of the things I know is true is it takes courage to change the conversation. You know, I've said on the show and you've heard me say a thousand times that it takes three qualifications to do this work. You should have the mind of a scholar because there's a lot to learn, right? You should have the heart of a shepherd because it's really about the people in the community, and that's who we're most accountable to, but you for sure better have the hide of a rhinoceros. Because most people in our world, when they see change, they fear loss. And I think that's what, whether we're talking about our board meeting at the food bank council, or we're talking about a new project, or we're talking about something that's different that we hope and believe will meet the need in a better way. People often fear change because they fear loss. And in fact, sometimes change agents can forget that people want to be cared about. Everybody wants to be cared about. On some kind of level, people want to know that other people care about them. And when you're trying to make a change and you act like you don't care about somebody, especially somebody who's threatened by that change, whatever that fear of loss is to them. The more you demonstrate that you really don't care, the more pushback you're going to get. The more obstacles there's going to be toward trying to get where it is that you think you need to be for the betterment of somebody. And then when you compound that with sometimes people who want change on behalf of somebody else, haven't listened to those people either. And so the people they're trying to help the change that you're trying to make isn't the help they want, right? And so you have a lot of skepticism around change, right? Because change agents aren't always perfect. And I do think that being a change agent requires and year three traits are really excellent. The mind of a scholar, the heart of a shepherd in the height of a rhinoceros. Because change being a change agent is a responsibility to everybody else, the people who you're trying to help, as well as the people who you're trying to convince. And you've got to care about all of them, if you really want to see that change happen. Now, if it's a small enough change, you can probably force it or push it or whatever, but if you get in the habit of those behaviors, you end up first of all, and an awful lot of conflicts, many of which are unnecessary. But what's even worse is three minutes stations. Three minutes to your next feat. And you know, one of the representatives I met with yesterday, I told her I said one of the things we like to say on the show is the less you know about a problem the easier it is to solve. She wrote it down. She wrote it down. She's like, I'm gonna use that. I'm gonna use that. I said, use it away. I'm sure I didn't make it up, but I use it all the time. And but it gets to this idea of change. And if you're a change agent, what are you really required to be and do, especially if that's if you're working on a huge problem that requires a lot of involvement from a lot of stakeholders, like food insecurity does. Well, you think about change, you know, every all change needs a champion. You know, we introduced you as our change my star. And one of the reasons I say that and this is a compliment to you is that you literally have put your money where your mouth is. When you talked about, you know, what's the next innovation in food banking? You've invested money and hired people to find that out to learn what you didn't know. And that's the whole point of having a process associated with what whatever change you're trying to create. Change is always, we said it's a critique of the past, but it's also a glimpse of the future. And I think that's why we make the investment and certainly I think gleaners has done that and I have to call out food gatherers and Eileen spring and Markel Miller in Washington county. I mean, a lot of times I will say to food bankers across the nation that give me an idea they'll say, hey, Phil, we're thinking about doing this. And I say, go talk to Eileen. She's probably been doing it for three and a half years. That's the honest truth right there. You know, so she is and leaders see before they see better and they should be on the rest of us that's why they're the leaders, right? And so I think seeing some of what needs to happen. You know, and we talked about the work being based on need. Not based on capacity, you know, I think is a change thought. So we say, well, we got this much food to give, and this food bank can do this much, and this food bank can do this much, but does that represent where the need lies in and across the state in the communities. And I think that's a change that we're evolving towards where the work is based on the need assessment rather than the capacity of the warehouse. That's right. And of course, different communities have grown differently in terms of their capacity to do the service. So if you constantly support those that have developed that capacity already, you're going to leave people behind in communities where that capacity hasn't been built yet, right? And that you don't want to do. It's defining reality. This is another thing that you say about leadership a lot, that one of the first priorities of leadership, or the first, is to define reality. And so I want to give an example of that because I think that is so poignant for this conversation. So this is the difference between what I know, what I think, and what I think I know. There are known knowns, there are known unknowns, but there are also unknown unknowns. Right? Which are different things. The knowledge gap.

He also said the worst of a bear market in U.S. equities has passed and that the S&P 500 may have already bottomed out. I think that on June 16th, when we fell down to 3666 on a closing basis, which by the way, it was 3000 points higher than the intraday low that we had in 2009, making a bottom. I think that was the bottom. And coincident with that is we have seen commodity prices coming down. We have seen a slowing in the economy, which I think will help to moderate inflation. Now, to be fair, yardeni is in the minority when it comes to what Wall Street analysts are saying at the end of last month a poll from Deutsche Bank found 72% of respondents are expecting further weakness in equities, but Jordan's track record speaks for itself.

"About three minutes time into a sports car that drove out of the airport and onto the highway. Second prototype with a stronger engine and better range is in the works. The air car is among dozens of efforts all over the world to develop everything from air taxis to commercial jet packs. Flying cars could still become a thing. And maybe sooner than you think. Is this good? Bad or ugly? Vivian? You know, Greg. I grew up watching the Jetsons and so The thought of this At first, you're like, Oh, this is great, but I worry that it's ugly. I mean the innovation. The technology is brilliant. It was amazing watching that video and seeing this thing actually work, like fly in the air and then land and go driving along the road. But maybe it's just because I just finished reading a book about climate change. And I just think this is another thing that wealthy individuals are going to want to have. And it's you know, single person commuting. How many resources is, does it take to build these darn things could we actually spend more time spending more resources on mass transit? Instead of melting the entire earth's glaciers just so we can have a Ricard's running around and also the technology. I mean, I mean, I'm just sitting here thinking driving is the most dangerous thing we do now because everybody's on their cell phones. I can just see all these people talking on their cell phones whizzing around in the air. And what happens when one of these things you know, I can protect myself from crashes just by not getting on the road. But what do you do when these things are like flying up in the air, and they crash right above you and the stuff comes down? I don't know. All right, I sense I should have asked somebody else first. No. Just kidding. Just good, bad or ugly. Charles. Vivian's already made the Jetsons reference. But I want to point out that the flying car that George Jetson had with the push of a button. It folded all the way up into a briefcase that he carried with him into the office and you'll note Wayne. They were still working in offices in whatever Jetsons was set in which, given that the Jets and was created in 19 in the sixties was probably like Oh, I don't know 2000 and three or something some really far off year that they thought it was back then. So, um, I mean, Vivian's right. Think of what traffic is like on like 6 10 nowadays and then ask yourself how much more night marriage that would be if all of those cars were in the air. I mean that arguably you could say, Well, then they won't all be trying to exit at the same place and it won't be as crowded. But yes, they all are ultimately still going to the same destinations. They all are still sharing the same space. And the crashes are going to be inevitable, and Vivian's right will betide the person who's underneath When your neighbors flying Porsche crashes into somebody else's flying SUV. It's going to be ugly, and we have no idea what to do with it. In theory, flying car sounds great in practice, Build me an umbrella that can protect me from the debris. That's what I'm asking, Okay. Let's see if it's three for three. And I think we've really shattered Craig's dreams here. Just just a little bit. Wayne Drama drama just to go back to your Your Incredible question, Charles. Why, though, hashtag? Why, though? If we're going to have quote flying cars? That means as Vivian pointed out very well, we're going to have People drive flying those cars. So that means you're texting drivers. You're drunk drivers, your teen drivers how out of control? Could this possibly get? It's amazing to me because even now you know, we look up and we see a big, beautiful sky. But even now, especially in your metropolitan areas, the skies are full with planes. And so to imagine having car traffic up there. I mean, it would just be wild like who is going to regulate all of that? Who's gonna be the air traffic controller for that? That would be crazy. I can't imagine this going well, and especially if the car can only fly for, like, 35 minutes. And that ain't getting you over the Atlantic folks. It should be noted that if when we get to the point of having Technologically sufficiently advanced cars that can fly. We would probably also have, by this point.

Having mobile He's very good. 25 points 12 of 15 from the free throw line. You also had eight rebounds and a couple of blocks us. See it made some plays down the stretch, knock down some free throws. And just made a couple more plays in the barest it well, the key moment and you mentioned it at the time that it happened was 5 57 apply to point needs. 63 61 Andre Kelly gets filed inside. Picks up a technical foul. And USC on Lee got one free throw out of that. I mean, they went one for two, and they got the ball, but they didn't score there. But that was the turning point. Because from then on out, USC outscored the Bears 13 to 7. So it was a situation where you thought maybe going to get free throws. Maybe Andrea's gonna score inside. He doesn't And then that just it's like the Bears hit a wall right then, and USC is a veteran team. Remember, they got all these guys had transferred in you. Graduate transfers, redshirt seniors, etcetera. And to their credit on the road. They found a way to win a very big basketball game and keep themselves in the title hunt. And for the young bears again, you go back and look, what could we have done? Down the stretch to maybe pull this one out at home. But you see, with a big road win and the bears to really tough losses at home this weekend against USC, and you see a light two games that were there for the taking with about three minutes to play, and then you know, Andre. It gets the technical foul. Then you know he's ends up at four fouls, and then USC goes quietly. They go right to mobile. Even Andres guarding goes, puts it on the floor goes right at him. Andre commits the foul. He fellas out of the ballgame without Andre and they're on offense, But things are just very different becomes very perimeter or headed and USC with its life can extend their defense. With all these players that are anywhere from other than Edie and Anderson. But the rust these guys, they're you know, 67 68 69. I mean, it's just really difficult not only to get open shots rich, but also to pass the basketball just going from one side to the other. Is problematic as well. And so so the like the size and the experience of USC was the difference. We're back with more the postgame show. Hold on. I see that the door opening over there is Coach Fox coming out. I You know, every time you throw it to break that he comes out and ready for the interview, So I saw the door open and I hesitated. Here he comes. All right, so we'll keep it right here and then we'll get him right on. So the patience pays off. On that one. You know, Bentley hit a big shot. You know, he had a tough night shooting against U C L A had a tough night again against USC, but he hit that big three and that was a really important part of the ball game. So Confidence and Ryan able, knocking down hands up seven points. Hydra chipped in six. McHale. Foreman had five just three shots for McHale. Andre Kelly. I did a good job on defense ends up with six points. Will visit with Coach Fox here momentarily and the coach Fox interview is brought to you by Pepsi and least refreshing Citrus kick with Mountain Dew Charger Game with Mountain Dew, proud partner of Golden Bears basketball. All right. Coach. Fox is here with US Coach. You hear? I can hear you. Yes. All right, Cook your thoughts on tonight's ball game against USC. Um, uh, you know, hard fought hard fought really hard Fought game again came down to the last. You know, uh, last minutes of the game, um I felt like way started the game. Poorly, Um Seemed like we were a step behind. You know, they just they just they had a lot more popular step. And so we started. You know, in in whole we did battle back at the half. I thought that we rebound the ball better in the first half. But it's it's the little errors that that have huge consequences that adept at up through a game that really made a difference. And when you are at a talent deficit, you have to be extremely disciplined to the little things and Those little things that they put us in a bad place today. We were just talking about one of the critical place. Maybe the critical play the ball game with 5 57 to play Andre Kelly gets filed by Isaiah Mobley inside, And then there was Little bump inside, and they called a technical. Um, on Andre Kelly. What? What did you see there? What was your explanation that you got on that play? Well, you know, I thought actually, I thought was a good call. We've reached out in Andhra retaliated or or or bumped a kid and you know, the kid may have, you know, it's just it's a play. We have to be emotionally able to control ourselves and just Just not make that mistake because it cost us two points and it cost us the ball. And man that was a critical critical place. Certainly, but there were lots of them. You know, there were a lot something we We way didn't shoot. We didn't shoot free throws to the level that that That we had been that we were a little better, but still we missed a couple key ones. At a key moment. We missed a little lay up to Mr Free throw block out. We got back in transition and left the guy wide open those little things. That's that's the things we have to clean up. But that's how you learn how to beat more talented teams with with very few mistakes, and this group still learning how to win First of the best teams and We just took the 1st and 2nd place teams in the league to the last minute on.

Could you talk about what you thought you could get for Matt Bradley tonight and how much of your expectations he either reached Exceeded your thoughts on math. You know, I think we probably got a little bit more than we thought we could, You know, and I talked just this afternoon about, you know, he hasn't really He hasn't played live in three weeks and conditioning factor in the timing and And and so you know, he was a little rusty, but he impacted the game. I thought in a positive way. You know, I thought he got fouled on the three there late, which would have been a huge play. But it was nice to have Matt back. And now we have to work on developing some continuity with with our with our team, because this is the first time we've really been hold with Jared, With Grant with with Matt. Everybody healthy should have been the first time since Way started playing that we have all of our pieces. You talk about the the Can you explain to people how you can play physical defense?

How do you do that when you've got guys given up 34 inches because for the most part tonight, I think you did the physical part of it. Without saying them, you know, to the free throw line excessively. Well, I mean, he shot 15 free throws. So he got there a lot any chuff six in the first four minutes, But, you know, I think the one thing that we tried to do is keep them away from getting getting deep position.
