I'm going to be worse than i would be. If i came from a nice a good source right so i do think it comes down to matching your energy. Needs what she eat. and. I don't think i think vilnai's in particular kinds of of nutrients doesn't help that answers. Your question now does. It's you know this is a such a fascinating topic to me. Because i started thinking about it in terms of okay. What's going on. I step back. And i look at the american population and i say even from the time i was a kid. It like so my family I grew up in a morbidly obese. Family and i remember thinking about it as a kid. Like my family's fat. Joe and like other families are not and now it's like my family is completely normal like it is so common and that's in like you know i'm only forty five so it's like not in exactly you know hundreds of years so in that amount of time it's become like so widespread so you start asking. Okay what's going on here. Yeah Overconsumption like i've i'm perfectly happy with the idea that look ultimately. This is a caloric imbalance for that individual person. And but i think that just as you've been very even-handed about that there are also secondary consequences that baked russians but the reason that i'm i'm not yet fully and look. I fully acknowledged this largely ignorance. But i'm not fully convinced yet that there isn't something going on with carbohydrates because i think about things like okay if insulin is damaging cells and there are certain things that.

Put this in the hands of an expert I love the idea of them like eating their fear foods together. I love i love. what would you be like. What do you think you would be eating if you had to do that. cheese it's where my fear where my like binge feared back in the day and now i realized they're kind of gross. My mother in law loves cheese. It's actually like. I think i still love them. Not eat a whole box which is raised to do so. I can get cheese. It would have been line anything like cheesy flavored salty snack. You're like something that you like. Were afraid to eat at all or is it something that you like had so much just like baggage around it like cake like i would eat cake all the time but like in some ways i guess you could say it was a fear food. 'cause like i always had to like work it off after or like i would save up all my calories so i could eat that cake so is like the cake the fear food in that case or is the cake like a trigger food. I think it's like a fear fetus. Okay so i feel like for people who struggle to eat period of fear food is something that like day what wouldn't eat beforehand like you wouldn't. They would never eat carrots because carrots have too much sugar right but for those of us who struggle with binging restricting like. It's not like i was never going to get done thing like it was like There was nothing. I would not eat. It was just like the amount that i would eat of it. You know same well. I almost think because of like my method of dieting which was not cutting out foods. It was calorie counting. I would actually like avoid foods that did it like meet my like. This is worth it for the calorie counter and then the rest of the time. I would just try to be eating like as little calories as possible like as much lettuce air. You know that type of thing exactly same here. So i feel like i guess the trigger and fear food kind of in one for us. But i'm glad that she can eat a doughnut. Because i don't think there's anything anymore. Where like i can't eat that or i'll gain weight. No i also feel like doughnuts. Were one of those foods that was like so vilnai's as children had like it's really like not that bad like even objectively like he's not. Yeah not right and yet for some reason doughnuts were like don't have a donut like exactly letting the notaire. Yeah right. I think it's like that Yeah yeah i don't know. Doughnuts got a bad rap in the nineties. Truly all right. So what is your non-sale when this week mine has to do away like eating with my partner. Because like i feel like sometimes i would always like the like i need so jeff is like a very giving person of he serves the food he always give me the digger portion. Because he's like nice about it like that. I feel like i have to eat it. Because he's being nice to me but the tea is sometimes. I'm not that hungry. And sometimes i want to eat more than he eats. You know so. I feel like i. Non scale win is like just being with him about what i'm eating and when i'm falling when i'm not fall that's great because like it's yeah it can be challenging to feel like oh chevy like measuring my food against my partners food like is he could have been guy too much. I nod eat enough like it's challenging. There's so many lake complicated elements that come with like eating with a partner especially when they don't when they have like quote unquote normally when he's completely normal he like also will always choose like cooking at home over a going out to eat. So we'll be and i'll always choose the opposite. I will always choose. Having like an out to uphold layover like cooking. And he's he's like he's fine with waiting an hour and being hungry till he cup and then like you please like me. Just go out right. It's just like the something about like having someone prepare your food for. You feel like better exactly. We had to compromise. And i had to get it to where like he would. I was like. I can't cook all this time. I can't do it and we had to come okay. I'll come over and cook. Because i know you can't do it. But he's perpetually late that i'm hungry. It's a whole. Does he cook. Yeah he cooks he. Basically i honestly feel like. He taught me how to cook. Because i don't think i was like really cooking in college. He's a year older so he had a house and everything and so mike probably ninety percent of the things that i cook a he basically taught me out but you know. Hey yeah he cooks. He cooks abbad. he's very good at it. So right. I mean that's good. He also probably is like a billion times more financially responsible because delirious financially responsible like handle it.

"I kind of wish my step in there like dean like get your crap together you know. It's not getting wasted and going to parties and trying to make out with girls. I kinda messed up. And i mean if i think that happened i think that My relationship life would've turned around a little earlier and i. It's funny to say. But i don't think podcasts ever would have sprung up if that were the case not to say that like you know i dating because none of my friends ever stepped up and said anything to me but i do think there. Especially at the age of twenty two. Like you are super impressionable. You have a lot to learn really. Nobody likes you. When you're twenty two or twenty three right listen Listen swift. And i think that's blink one eighty-two right. Nobody likes you three right. What's the song terrorist things about age. I think it's like fifteen anyways. That's beyond the point. My point is twenty two as a young enough age to where you're allowed to make mistakes but you're not you shouldn't be vilnai's for calling your friends out for making those mistakes especially like if you have the maturity to call them out for them like i think one of the reasons. None of my friends called me out. And what i call my friends out for it was because we all lacked the maturity so like if we had maybe like mature friend or to have like. Hey like this isn't right. We've just got word from rally that it was t- swift sings fifteen. So i was only seven years off. I was just about to say dean. Is this going to sound familiar. I don't know about you. But i'm seeing lynn. Twenty two. that was terrible. That's what it is. Yes okay thank you. Thank you jerod. I knew i wasn't that okay. I appreciate that twenty two. And hey i'm blake. I'm a big blink. One eight two fan so a little that miss that reference but anyways There's no shame calling your friends out for that. I personally like wouldn't be mad at you for separating yourself from your friends that are making those bad decisions because at the end of the day. It's like they're probably gonna make those bad decisions towards your friendship at some point so you have every right to to say something and then if the need to separate yourselves as friends comes about. I think that's totally find it. Here's a question i have for you. So anonymous ends emailing us about her friend. Do you think anonymous should go to the boyfriend and say listen. I love my friend. You can't keep doing this to her. Yeah that's really a question. I think she should go to the friend. I.

"I i must say anything to finish in you. Its second. I ran against donald trump coached. Didn't you ran against him. But when a person has principles morals and values they do not support them even if you lose a what they say is what they say. Is i choose patriotism and the country over party and power in the problem was too many. Republicans chose power in riding with done over as opposed to patriotism america. I'll sleep fine tonight with you. Judging my more as long as thirteen nieces and nephews what i also wanna see in america or republicans and democrats who have the guts to stay up to narcissists to folks who live to folks who who laying a country the wrong direction and with that man has unleashed on this country. Any republican who stood with them has to own it and accept the role that they play here. Well that's fine. I'll accept the role that i played in the twenty sixteen extra running against him and i'll finish point. Let me finish his point. I'll accept the role that i played in my belief that hillary clinton was not the right person to be present. We all get to make choices role in this democracy. I made my choice. I'm on record of my choice. And i'm not walking away from my choice but it does not preclude me from being able to be critical when the person that i did. Support does things that i am against. And so this false choice that you're trying to set does that. It's a false choice and one that the american people are not going to buy either. Let me let me just press. Press one one other point right now. I would argue that the the fact that so many americans can't buy into simple. Facts is probably the biggest existential threat we faced or democracy so when somebody speaks up for that isn't is something to be praised. Facts are critically important but again when you support the one who said fake news. Who when you were truthful and being pushed that when you have the networks and the conservative radio talk show host that whole echo chamber driving. That's the problem. I am a native of texas. Who is still registered there. And i'm dealing with rick. Abbott and dan patrick. Who's consistently lying and making things up and you're dealing with that. I'm dealing with people who are changing jobs as an as a. Here's the deal. I i have a very basic principle. Since i've been a journalist if you do good. I'll talk about you. If you do bad. I'll talk about the end of the day. Talk about you very somebody has to say what others offering you. Get the last word. If you want to persuade the half the country that voted for donald trump in two thousand sixteen to move to your side. Then you've got to stop vilnai them you've got to stop having these conversations where everyone who is not with you is against you and when someone says donald trump did something wrong you may want to consider praising that and trying to use that to persuade the people who are not going to be persuaded that is going to have to last word this debate. It obviously continue. The recall process.
Unreserved
"vilnai" Discussed on Unreserved
"Could be hanged in a. You're listening to unreserved today. Encore presentation of the podcast. This place sharing stories of indigenous heroes battles triumphs and traditions. I'm rosanna dear child. You just heard the wind ago story. Red clouds born and raised in winnipeg authored. Jen storm is a chip away from the kuching. First nation in northwestern ontario at the tender age of fourteen. Jen wrote her. First book deadly loyalties. She also wrote the graphic novel fire. Starters welcome jin yeah thanks for having me well first of all our big question is what or who is a window. Well i think windows have kind of multiple interpretations. And i think the most interesting thing is. There's an air of selfishness always kind of attached to them and in the context that i wrote it was during the for trade era and during the harshest winters during the harshest of times when people were starving and could literally starve to death. And i think that's a time that we don't have to relate to and because like these communities weren't communities because it was just a good thing to be a community but it was very much so like needed like you had to. You needed each other to survive. He had to be able to count on one another to survive so somebody acting in a way that was unpredictable. That was selfish. That was not community. Minded is a danger to all. So i think the term window go is a way to kind of label that spirit in a way so the windows that i wrote about were cannibalistic. And there's a way that that can really affect you mentally. And but i also believe that in today's society at that we don't have those kinds of windows but that spirit is very much still alive in our society and might even be more prevalent in the society. We are in today because the way we operate now is so individualistic and this just the way that society has become and it's like almost a struggle to keep route with community and still be successful. They're the one kind of story we have or like warning we have. That's not just a standalone spirit. It's the spirit that needs humans in order to manifest and so windows are human nature but they have this ugly spirit attached to them. And that's the part. I think is really kind of interesting about them. Is that the humanity of it. All i guess now the character wa south she is based on an actual person. Tell us about about this persa She there's not much said about her to be honest lake in the book which i brought with me. I'm killing the shaman. And it was a story about people from sandy lake. And how they kind of come to know the canadian justice system mainly as the point of the story but the undercurrent of it is very cultural and talking about how cultures are very different from one another although saying but this woman There was not much about her other than she was the last window to be killed by jack fiddler and the one that He went to prison for so why. Then why did you want to tell us. What was it about her her situation. That drew you her point of view to me. Because james stevenson and thomas fiddler told this story very well from the male perspective as a story. That's already been told. You know what i mean. So i didn't want to retell a story from the same perspective for one But also i believe that we've all realized that female voice is missing from history indigenous. Female voices missing almost entirely and in a lot of cases like even as i was reading through books and lake online like a lot of times. They don't even name women that are full photographed or rift like referred to like. You don't know much about them at all. Like what their clan is. What their quotes are What their individual at like. Individuality is it's kind of like a group of ojibway women from northern plains. Insert you don't even and it's and then like the but the men had more voice because they were representing right which is unfortunate for everyone that no one asked women. But that's happened to be the case so i found it important to us female voice in this retelling but also i wanted to use the windows perspective because it's always missing. We like even in our own stories. It best serves to vilnai's goes because we're trying to warrant against terrible behavior and we're trying to warn against anything that's anti society or something that's like anti your fellow man because that's against our survival so we vilnai's windows non-indigenous people vilnai's windows. Obviously like everyone was on the same page about windows goes but because windows are born human. I was kind of like well. There's a story there too right like they don't start off that way. Usually you're not born that way. Usually so that's why. I kind of wanted to take the window perspective. Because they've been so vilnai's d- what commentary lesson are you making about the justice system and how it has treated indigenous culture believes like like this one. Justice serves the community. It is built it. When canada was down here building their own laws for settler life and all those other things and what makes sense to them in a very large community and they go up north or they hear word. Come down from up north being like hey like this. Old chief is killing people in his community. We probably do something. And they're like whole like holy crap. We should go up there and do something. We need to save these people from themselves. Like this is insane and it's just like this whole perspective is different because you're coming from a totally different world view near coming from a different life and you don't understand like that even that party said earlier about you know if somebody's unpredictable if somebody's acting selfishly if somebody is you know trying to eat grandma of leading to stop them yes i would recommend also so like. Let's say you're out in the middle of you know the bush where like there's not really that many neighbors like you got to like everyone's got their justice system. Everyone has their own society including us now. as canada. we have our own justice. We have our own society. We have our own rules and social norms and expectations. And so who are we to go into another country to go into another place because we're looking through our own is being like that's weird but we don't have the whole picture. Why do you Think that it's important. To share these stories. From an indigenous perspective indigenous stories about heroes and triumphs and tribulations. Why do you think it's important. Share those stories with all canadians. That i think it's important for us to share those stories because we haven't like in our generation like you and i and the people who are writing nowadays. I think come from a place where we didn't have those. We didn't have those stories us growing up now or now that we are storytellers and sharing. We know and sharing stories and we get to be that we had to put all that out there so that other students can or students young people. Everyone including people like that grew up in our errand. Didn't get to see that but also did other work now. They get to see that. And i think that's important.

"Definitely important to ause that like i would never put someone in a position to do something that i wasn't already linked to do Or hadn't already done. And so if i was gonna ask a lot of my audience needed to give a lot to them and so i felt. I was reluctant to tell personal stories to begin with I didn't because the show wasn't about me. It shows never about news about you. You just didn't know. And so i didn't. I didn't feel the need to tell stories but eventually my director and the people around me you know convince me that that it was important to us. My narrative was as an access point to to you know for these ideas so dark doug audio e you obviously have thought a lot about identity means you know who we think we are. We are and stuff What are you learned. You know i learned. I learned that it. We we are connected in in shaping identity. You know as much as we want to believe that we we are who we are. And that's all that matters and it really it does matter what others Would it not think of us. But how how. We perceived and more importantly how we perceive others it's collected. You know we're shaping each other's identity at any given moment and and that responsibility is really what i kind of found trues it instead of. We're all so busy. Fighting to be seen. In fighting to be known that we you know fighting for others to see us that we forget that we are others and that we have the opportunity to to see others and try to really see them for who they are and and and and just really kind of acknowledged the connectivity and and how how much we are really Shaping one another's identity and and it doesn't exist in a vacuum. We really rely on each other for this. An one last thing for me derek. I read somewhere in preparing for this The line that we deceive ourselves into believing whatever we're doing is right and good Jim mentioned that. The trump era before. We just rented fascinating book about police officers. Which talked about the same thing would you. Would you mean by that about right. Yeah the how we do deceive each ourselves. What were you know like from the car table. What i realized is that like when i was dealing cards to people. They weren't great people they were. They were degenerates. Really i mean. These are people who are openly. You know gambling away. Their children's futures or alcoholics or they're literally drug users or dealers meetings. There's not a lot of not great people and so i was able to vilnai's them and by doing so i was able to ignore my own. Villainy was able to to see the like they were just playing cards. I was actually you know if anything criminal table. And i'm but we're able to vilnai's each other and make ourselves the hero of our own story in a way that we we just remove each other's humanity we were not able to see each other who we are and we're not able to understand are where we are in the story because we're all the heroes are on stories you know and so i just think it's easy to it's easy to point fingers in say the other team is the bad team and and in some cases we might be right.

"I don't wanna give everything away from everybody. Because i was shocked when i looked at that page. It's just the the right. Yeah like the idea that there's still something inside of her. That's haunting her to so to speak. But calvin is like okay. Look i'm done. I'm done with that. Like we had to go fine but he loves her. So there's this interesting dynamic where you know. He's not one of those things where he's like. Okay i'm out. I'm leaving. I'm going but you can tell there's a difference between them and just seeing that kind of power struggle in a sense. 'cause they boca go after each other with these powers. That's nothing that i think school. But they're you know they're very supportive of each other the same down yet. So calvin tanya. They've been together for a very long time I think they are in their relationship is amazing. It's loving In some aspects is also very unhealthy right. Their dependence on one another is very unhealthy. Italian needs tanya needs calvin to kinda keep her calm and calvin needs tanya because he knows she's going to get things done right she she she she thanks fast and ask questions later. So we'll explore soon that their dependency their co-dependency on each other very unhealthy to a certain extent Tanya who i mentioned earlier tanya was crafted vary was scrapped after my mother. I'm a mother was very opinionated. Very strong willed of very powerful black woman And she was always just so feisty Always seemed like she had chip on her shoulder. But but for good reason right. You know when you're a black woman. Walking through the world they ever seen everything everybody in everything is out to get you You kind of develop that we ever noy that that ship on your shoulder like you have to always watch your back and whereas calvin has said listen. It's been twenty years. We have a family. It's not about us more about the kids tania's like i don't really know who i am right. You know you force me out of this stuff you force me into it i. I don't not necessarily feel like she's being herself And domesticated so therein lies the some more issue that lead to the entire series. Right let me talk. Let's talk a little bit about this chip on the show to here because this is one of my favorite scenes. When you bring the americans the you know the home run and sergeant freedom and lady liberty. That was one of my favorite things. Because i love the feistiness of ultima instructors in this or tying cowboy in this. Because i don't try to come up here. What i'll less like you know bs. And whatever entail me you know everything is is okay and i should go for america on this because i felt like they were exploring that chip on your shoulder. You know as a black person maybe as a black woman you know some aspects of that scene. That was going on there. What can you talk about creating those characters and where you kinda pull from absolutely so early on. We knew we wanted the intactness to be perception. Based right yeah you have labeled these super villains and you have these superheroes but for different people who read the book. Ultimate disrupters may be a hero. All the americans might be villains right. So malcolm x. To a lot of people this guy was villain and to a lot of other people. He was a hero. It's all based on perception The the reason tanya calvin delve into village in the first place because they saw an injustice -ociety and unlike me a you they had the actual physical power to do something about it right. We don't have the power. do anything about it. So they said you know what You know black. People have been vilnai's for so long Tanya and calvin saint listen if we have to take those labels to get things done for equity for quality by any means necessary. We're going to do and so that's what they did. And then you have the american who is pony boy for The american dream in calendar. And everything's happy. Go lucky you know. He stands for america's ultimate values and the differentiation of worry. Disagree is where the american see. What america is calvin and tanya see where america what america should be as two different things going on there and so. That's the disconnect that puts them on both sides of the line and i'm curious to know what feedback you've already received about it but just the idea you know like you said seeing the americans are seeing the antagonists and you know picking whether you think they're good or evil or who's on what side the reaction people have had especially from the black community to be able to see like if you you know. I'm you know this is one of the things we're gonna pockets. You wish you had a week can roll like some video for you guys raising. So be able to see them in their in their out says when their ultimate and destructive and then as parents in just how powerful and strong they look and what that's going to feel like to younger people read in this to you know really people of all ages you know when things are starting. Things are explained throughout the comics. You know you can have different generations reading this right. The americans so symbolic of what of trump's america right in. I won't say you too much on that. But you know when people when pete with other foreign countries think about america. That's the americans. Assemble that america has worked so hard to portray right american theme colorful non diverse group of people. And that's what the american are symbolic for now. They aren't necessarily are superheroes they are. You know they do good But they're flawed in their flaws represent. How much. America's flaw in as we progress in the store will see the individual on out the americans and how all of them are actually dealing with these flaws of their own. That makes them not so good to.

"We did not have the vocabulary to discuss these things back then. Right and what. Naomi daca simone biles and kevin love. There's a million athletes who are out there on the front lines talking about these realities right now. But what they're doing is actually helping us understand right. We didn't know it. An acl was twenty years ago. Right now we understand when someone blows out there knee. We can imagine the like what the break. What a knee looks. Like under mike. I mean under an x ray right. I really like we know more now than we knew then. And we don't know enough to talk about these mental health issues with precision but the fact that we're able to talk about then in the way that we are is a small victory even though there's idiots who want to take exception to just to draw you know twitter traffic so in the process of having a bad take met while she accidentally lead us to an interesting example that informs just how differently as you say our vocabulary isn't talking about these things twenty twenty one that it would have been in the nineties. When michael jordan was winning basketball games and retiring briefly from the sport basketball. Yeah no i. That's that's the most positive take. I've heard not giving him credit for that long. But you're finding the silver lining there too. Happy way i think and i was thinking okay. Listen to a lot of people have rightly made the point. I don't know if it's necessary but if there's a there's a factual point that if any sports you could that you know that you might be slightly more compelled to drop out of a competition because you're at ninety. Nine point eight percents. Instead of one hundred olympic level gymnastics has to be at the top of the list right. Because if you're like a tiny degree off you could end up paralyzed ray. You could later. Elite break your neck. Yeah and and. That's that's obvious right. I mean if you're not. I mean not. We're not guest took that into consideration but that should be incredibly obvious. Now i i when i was watching her walk away. This is exactly what i was thinking. Even when the the mental health was was was. I was thinking about it at the time. Because it's been in the third but it's also like she has to walk away whether or not we actually talk about. Why in an honest or you know kind of positive way is a separate thing right but there is no but like the idea fit. An athlete of her caliber should not be trusted. Understand whether or not she can safely execute her her repertoire of of moves is is crazy. Right i mean she she. That's her call. We all accept that circle. Well i guess not when kerry strug when everybody was ever comparing her to stupidly now kerri strug was like ooh like belic early probably threatened her parents life but you know to make her go out there and do that vault right. I mean that's and no one would expect. We can all glorify that moment in history but it was a miracle the baton. It didn't end in catastrophe and nobody would. Nobody would glorified the way. Actually happened is just like it's stupid post-facto rationalization but like you know we should trust them on byles where we are fortunate. This is not a this is not a symptom of generation next everything else. We are fortunate to be in a world in which an athlete the level of simone biles has the volition to say. I'm not one hundred percent. And i know what that means better than you do right. We are all we should all be grateful to be in that world regardless of what how it shakes out in terms of medal.

She's been in huff post. She'd been invited to the white house.

Have a friendship with her. So with all of that said let's get into it. Y'all she published a book holy moly. She published a bug and it is May zine for brown girls with sharp edges tender hearts. I mean that's that's my book. That's that's for me. That's my mirror. All right let's talk about it all rights. We welcome to the show. I'm so excited to have you on here. So i know you're doing like a ton of work to promote the book and everything. Have you done a podcast yet. As the first podcast where you're talking about it. I've done a few podcasts. That but they were unofficial. I mean i've been on podcast a lot but yeah this is my first official one about the book for sure. Everything has been like. I'm not supposed to talk about it but somehow we ended up talking money. Yeah ooh i like this okay. I feel special now. I was so quick. When you replied. I was like oh shit. Okay i gotta. I gotta get prepared. Yes well it's been overdue for you to come on the podcast. Can you share a little bit. I kind of like how we've known each other. I mean instagram but kind of where people can find g. You've got to amazing pages on instagram. Can you share a little bit about them. Okay where do i start. I guess we met each other. We started talking. Because i message you Council stuff happened. Yeah 'cause i was really triggered. Because i do a lot of the similar work that you do of educating people not so much on my platform mike personal one. They do a lot of that work. And i'm also somebody who doesn't believe in the performance of act of like self erasure of all the mistakes that we've made so much of my work is talking about how fucked up by was for so many years. Because i tonight so much shitty stop so i reached out to you because i was really triggered bachelor. Nation is like my escapism and suddenly twenty twenty was this year were the whites decided to weaponize cancel culture. Bachelor nation has really jumped on the deep end even the progressive bachelorette nation jumped on that bandwagon. When you were getting counseled and it was just really triggering for me. It was really sad. And i just reached out i was like hi and i just messaged you because usually that's how i am courageous to do something like that. It was just like this sucks. You're amazing fucked them. All we've been chatting thin saw what. Yeah I run lead the rebels And my own page. But he's go goes. And i have a low key bachelor. Poke podcast that. I don't tell people about tell people i'm about it. I'm about it. I think it's too rattler nations of times but it's called bachelor cheese may in we just talk about all the ways. That this franchise is like racist about phobic classes sexist. All the things you can imagine we just like break it down and make an intentional move to highlight the people of color and be critical of all the ways that editing. Vilnai's them down. Is that conversations. Had i remember when you've got vilified It was just kind of like well. What what was the phrase that everyone used like emotional intelligence and it was just like this does like a stupid comment that you made. It was like there was like a lot of depth that nobody had the analysis for. Yeah like i was saying the same thing. Literally everybody else was saying about maturity. But because i used emotional intelligence that had the word intelligence and i was now all of a sudden being viewed and. Yeah yeah yeah. So they're easily easily Villain is and then emotional. Intelligence was just like weaponized against me for years. Lyon people would literally harass me and my emotional intelligence. I'm just talking like a really word like none of this is wrong. I didn't make that it. Yeah yeah so. That's what i tried to do on. Our podcast is just try to have like that. The analysis and try to hold the people of color with grace a lot of our listeners. I think because we're the only podcast that really does that full force in the line of significant ways a lot we fight with our listeners. Then they'll be like okay. Yeah i get what you're saying because his wrenches so fucking good at like tricking you into participating in your own oppression in the oppression of people that look like you if you're a b. pot or wok watcher or consumer though is trying to cancel out all the shit that this normalizes That's what i do. I love that you do it so needed. And i mean i hear you. It's scary because like the listeners. And the fan base like typically are not down with that shit clearly. I mean i tried to do that on my platform and consistently folks are not down with that shit. There are people who are but the ones that are not our way louder and it just creates so much mess and stress that you have to deal with so hopefully this is Yeah so hopefully people listening to this will be able to also listen to your podcast with some open. Mind open ears open heart like i always encourage folks listen to you when they opened this podcast because a lot of this has all meant to make you feel uncomfortable. But that's like for you to sit with not to just project out and blame onto the messengers of of what we're breaking down essentially expect perfection from us because like how dare we say what we say in that. Have everything else figured out in our lives. Yeah yeah well. I just first of all major major congrats on doing this book. I mean i think about writing a book sometimes. I'm just like always so much. I can't do. I'm not there like you really fucking it. I can't believe it either to be honest if kobe had it happen i think it would have been harder. I think because. Kobe happened right when i was starting to draft when we didn't go out like march twenty twenty into a i think april late april of twenty twenty one. We went out for the first time like groceries. Know even putting gas in our cars like we have services for everything which is a huge privilege moving date home because my husband.

It's it's at least sixty five percent of the world population you know at increases as we get older it's not a with lactose. Intolerance means is the inability to digest the lactose in dairy products that carbohydrate in dairy products and it really does vary a a amongst different of racial groups in ethnic groups owes more common in. We seen in africa in south america and asia. It's less common in europe but it is it is throughout the whole world. We see lactose intolerance and as people get older.

What's going on in Melbourne's quarantine hotels?
"So we'll let start today with a chat about melvin quarantine hotel situation because they've had a few cases that have. They're all sort of clustered around this one hotel there year the holiday inn at melbourne airport. It's been several cases that have come from it now. And it's clearly wired the victorian government enough for them to close it down. Move everyone from it. For a deep clean as the premier daniel andrews explained yesterday. They were several cases. I suppose we can refer to them. One was the the authorized officer. The other one was a food and beverage attendant and then the third case was a hotel resident and all of them they think are linked back to the theory that that going and calling it the moment. Cold the nebulizer theory. So that sounds intriguing. And we'll unpack that in a little bit but to save vilnai from speculating for completely unqualified physicians. We brought in an actual expert today. Dr kirsty short. Who's a just from the university of queensland. Welcome kisdi high so kirsty. This theory the nebulizer theories based on this idea that someone in the hotel was using and as in one of those medical devices that can help deliver a medicine to someone that can also create aerosols. Does this add more to our knowledge. About how corona virus does doesn't transmit through the air while look. I think there's been a lot of debate about this throughout the pandemic and other role gist. You know i've never seen this as a black and white issue because you never going to have a virus that is hundred percent aircel and you never going to have a mars. That's hundred percent droplet. You're just going to have in some circumstances it's arizo transmission and in some circumstances it's droplet transmission so we've always sort of suspected in high risk procedures like integration of patients with curved That that could be an aerosol generating procedure. And i suspect probably what's happening in these toe quarantine situations is. We are getting rather unfortunate string or unlucky string of events whereby you on maybe having aerosols generated in the room for whatever reason be nebulizer others. And then what you've got to remember. Is that in facilities way. You where. I work in the laboratory where you work with the actual vars. It's all negative pressure. So that means that when you open daw- the epcot come out and it stays in the room but these hotels onto signed as quarantine facilities. Sorry theoretically what could happen is an individual. There could be lots of ours. Air sliced in the room and individual could open the door. And then somebody who is walking past or the virus could stay in the f. x. amount of time as the was drawn into the corridor with the door being arpan. Sorry these all sound. Like very pedantic risks i guess but when when leukaemia detect every single case of infection they are really really

Why Are Leaf Blowers So Annoying?
"Hey brain stuff lauren Vogel Bob here the sounds of autumn satisfying crunch the crisp apple or fallen leaves to your feet or the teeth grinding noise of a leaf blower. Powered by electric or gasoline motors that propel air out of a nozzle to send leaves and grass cuttings flying leaf blowers are probably the most Vilnai's devices in the lawn care universe to the noise that they have met in the mid nineteen seventies when leaf blowers became ubiquitous in the United States to California cities adopted early bands of the Equipment Carmel by the sea beverly labeled the leaf. Blowers a noise nuisance and banned their use a move that has been followed by hundreds of other cities across the United States to some degree. But what is it about leaf blowers that people hate is that the decibels the constancy delete blowers pose real dangers to the health of users or others who happen to be within earshot increasingly, the answer appears to be yes to all of the above. Leaf blowers may send leaves and lawn clippings for a ride, but the gusts which reach one, hundred, eighty, two, two, hundred, and eighty miles per hour. That's about two, hundred, ninety, two, four, hundred, fifty kilometers per hour also create a nose clogging swirl of fungus spores, herbicides, and microbes. The resulting dust is so aggravating to people with allergies, asthma bronchitis, and other respiratory maladies that the American Lung Association recommend staying away from leaf blowers altogether. And then there's the air pollution operating a commercial leaf blower for one hour and it's as much smog forming pollution as you would if you drove a recent mid-size car as say twenty sixteen Toyota Camry from Los Angeles Denver, which is about a one, thousand, one, hundred mile or a one, thousand, eight, hundred kilometer trip. That's because most leaf blowers used to cycle engines they're lightweight and inexpensive, but they require a mixture of gasoline and oil to run unlike more complex engines. They don't have separate chambers for fueling lubricants when operated the engine wastes approximately one third of the combined mixture releasing carbon monoxide, nitrous oxide, and hydrocarbons into the air. Three toxins are some of the main culprits in the air pollution from leaf blowers. Carbon monoxide helps for smug nitrous oxide is a prime ingredient in acid rain and has been linked to global warming. Hydrocarbons are cancer causing organic compounds that also contribute to smog formation plus leaf blowers are noisy. How noisy are they when you engage in conversation? That's a noise level of about. Sixty decibels according to the center for hearing and Communication. If you're strolling on a sidewalk in a car goes by that's about seventy decibels a leaf blower, even fifty feet or fifteen meters away can be up to seventy five decibels and right up close that jumps well into the nineties according to the World Health Organization any noise about seventy decibels risks causing physical hearing damage. And then there's the mental toll. Miss. A phony is a relatively newly classified condition in which people are angered by particular sounds like chewing or knuckle cracking although leaf blowers aren't mentioned in the diagnosis parameters it stands to reason this phony may be related to people's dislike the machines because they're extra sensitive to sound. Preliminary data shows that phones brains may have a hypersensitive connection between the auditory system and the LIMBIC system, which is the part of the brain that's responsible for creating emotions. It's so much a part of life for a phones that they can be shocked others don't feel or react the same way to certain noises. But being irritated by leaf blowers doesn't necessarily mean your phone. Erica. Walker a doctoral student at Harvard. University's Chan. School. Of Public Health discovered that is far less irritating to create a sound than it is to hear it in a survey of one thousand, fifty residents more than a dozen Boston neighborhoods, Walker found that the majority of respondents said they couldn't control or get away from noises like leaf blowers and they believed that no one really cared that it annoyed them. What's more other research has shown that leaf blowers, a low frequency noise that penetrates through outer walls into homes and businesses in a way that some other noises passing vehicles, for example do not. However. Leaf blowers have become an integral part of commercial lawn care while a leaf blower may sound like fingernails across chalkboard to you for the businesses that rely on them portion of their livelihood. It's probably music to the ears.
The 11th Hour with Brian Williams
At RNC, Republicans paint dark picture of future if Trump loses
"Republicans spent most of their convention evening one painting, a dark picture of life. If a Democrat specifically, one named Joe Biden wins the White House back with us tonight to talk about what it is. We have just witnessed Claire mccaskill former Democratic senator from the Great State of Missouri, which might have been referenced once or twice during Tonight's program, our own Lawrence O'Donnell host the ten pm eastern our on this network, of course, and David Jolly former Republican member of Congress from the State of Florida who has since left the house and his political party but he has not turned his back on the state of Florida clear I'd like to begin with you. In terms of tone and substance, and the the kind of takeaway feeling you got after a night like tonight. You know this is the presidency of lies in this was a couple hours of lies. Mostly about Joe Biden is and his policies but also lies about Kobe and lies about healthcare and is you know the thing that rovings it really struck me Brian was the nerve they had of telling immigrants stories tonight Nikki Haley talking about being her parents in immigration Maximo Alvarez from Cuba. Who came here in an asylum situation from Cuba seeking freedom, and then maybe the most unbelievable is all the two women from Guatemala. Selling honey. You have to understand that children from Waddell Malo were ripped from their families arms. and. On purpose this is this is a presidency that has shut the door slam the door on people like this, and so the idea I mean I can't decide which was weirder them having the mccloskey's Vilnai's black people or and then having Tim Scott doing the keynote or a presidency that has been so bad on immigration trying to feature immigrants as part of his story. David Jolly. What do you recognize from your former party we heard. Kimberly Guilfoil. Speech in an empty room tonight saying that Joe Biden is out to destroy America her life partner Dj Tj. Trotted out a new nickname. Beijing Biden tonight because apparently. Nicknames are genetic So, wh. What did you make of what you saw tonight? I bring a different set of ears to this perhaps than senator mccaskill, just give him my my past partisan affiliation and what I would say is from a messaging standpoint, there were some very effective moments and I think maximum Maximo Alvarez speech was ineffective one I think the policy elements of Tim. Scott's were effective I thought Vernon Jones the democratic state REP from Georgia at a very effective message and to certain extent Herschel. Walker. But but then there are two things that kind of trample on that I as you mentioned is is kind of the Colt like narrative. That is all things trump for Matt, gaetz saying MS thirteen moving in next door to Charlie kirks screed on terrorism to Kim, Gulf Oil's. american-carnage reductions if you will all of those elements trampled on what would have otherwise been a fairly normal message to expect from an RMC. But the other thing it requires is for you to suspend the past three years of reality to the senators point the separating moms from children, the abandonment, of NATO, a president who was impeached for trying to cheat the American people in the upcoming election president who want. Release his tax returns who's been named as a co-conspirator in a federal crime in the Southern District of New York it requires the listener to suspend all of those moments that we know are actually the real trump administration and the trump presidency. So unfortunately, look, there were many moments made for TV that we're effective, but they will be lost in the greater trump. Trump is a cult that will ultimately define this convention. Lawrence O'Donnell a bit of darkness on the edge of town in the midst of a pandemic, an unmistakable message that they're coming for you. That's one of the messages and Brian. We try to evaluate the effectiveness of a night like this or any that is this week we have to ask ourselves how long or how much of this did the undecided voter watch and the underside voter watch with very little of these things and some usually they don't watch it at all. So it has zero effect. If all it's doing is reinforcing the votes you already house and so if you think about what was said, tonight, that could appeal to someone who wasn't already voting for Donald. Trump you got some of Tim. Scott's a speech I agree with David about that but not the part the part where Tim Scott suddenly. As if almost to say, I, don't really mean this started attacking Joe Biden said the job behind his ambition is quote a socialist utopia applied that to Joe Biden, and so the speech starts to become nonsense when when he does that the only person I heard actually mentioned something the Donald Trump would do in a second term was donald trump junior and the only thing he mentioned Donald Trump would want to do in a second term is to end the payroll tax end the funding for social security and we learned today from Social Security, Trust Fund that that means Social Security would be unable to pay benefits. In twenty twenty three and I just want to alert the audience in the past you've heard people use the phrase social security is project projected to go bankrupt at some date distant in the distant future. What that always meant was social security will only be able to hey benefits based on the amount of money it takes in that week, which is to say, would have paid about seventy five cents of each dollar that it owed. This idea would leave social security paying zero zero of each dollar that it does and that is the only trump idea for the second term that was actually mentioned tonight that I heard.
Slate's The Gist
The Evils of Election Incompetence
"There are lots of problems with elections in America but one problem a less scrutinized problem is that Democrats are unwilling to fundamentally reform system that really needs reformation because this is seen as doing president trump's bidding. Yes. Of course, Democrats are very much interested in expanding the franchise and voter access being a top issue. But when it comes to competently counting ballots and putting machines in place that can accommodate everyone who wants to vote. There's less of an incentive to get it right especially in places without a strong Republican countervailing force. Congressman nearly elect. Torres. WAS WNYC's Brian Lehrer show and while he said that waiting six weeks was unacceptable his words he framed his concerns about voting delays and because thousands of mail in ballots were thrown outs disenfranchisement I think to gently here was Torres look I am concerned about. You know the administration election during covid nineteen, but the president has no. Credibility. And I worry that some of the hyperbolic rhetoric about the integrity of New York City's elections. Up plays into the hands of Donald from WHO would love nothing more than to de legitimize vote by mail. There is a difference between administering an election imperfectly. As we did here in new. York. City in rigging election the reasonable evidence of rigging election fraud. This is the first time New York City has undertaken universal by mail. which is a massive undertaking. And whenever you're experimenting with something new. There's bound to be growing pains growing pains. Well, we're not that generous with Georgia and we shouldn't be and we shouldn't be that generous with New York just because trump is exaggerating the risks of mail in voting doesn't mean there aren't lots of problems with mail in voting maybe the and many of them are by his design look at what he's doing with the postmaster general. Let me say that but. The flaws of mail in voting or regular person voting are not about stealing an election but that doesn't mean that they're not about voters not being heard. Let me make this analogy. So there was this huge explosion in Beirut and the death toll right now is over one hundred fifty. Now at first thoughts went to terrorism and if it were to have been terrorism that would be a huge worry, it doesn't seem to. Be The case that the explosion was because of terrorism it wasn't evil. It was just incompetent but those one hundred and fifty plus people are just as dead no matter. The cause the area is just as leveled incompetence isn't as easily Vilnai's as evil doing but in a way that makes it seem like a less urgent problem to tackle. But I'm here to tell you it's not or elections or shambles because there's little. Incentive to get them working correctly by the people who are in office because those are the very people who the shambolic system in the long run works out for in new. York's case it's the very long run. We can't wait until there's a crisis on a presidential election data. Realize there is already a crisis going on as we speak
The Big Story
A sugar tax on drinks in Canada? Would it even work?
"It's sold to us, and it's been sold to us a few times by now as a health issue, but it always goes beyond that, especially in the minds of the people who'd be paying it. The World Health Organization is urging global action to reduce the amount of sugary drinks being consumed around the world. This suggestion is the by implementing a twenty percent increase on the retail price of sugary beverages. It would result in a substantial decrease in the amount of sugar filled drinks people consume. There is currently a movement to foot among some liberal MP's to add a sugary soda tax to the party's platform for this fall's election. And we have some questions chief among them is this, even if we ignore all the arguments that come up as soon as sugar taxes, raised about personal responsibility about freedom of choice about small business owners in about who this would actually hurt would it even work. What would this tax be designed to achieve? And is there any research out there supporting this approach Canada after all is not the first country to consider, and even implement? Attacks on sugary sodas. So let's go into this with clear expectations and a barometer for success before we asked Canadians to pay more for a coke. Jordan heath Rawlings. And this is the big story, Natalie read acre is a researcher at the university of Manitoba, who has been studying a sugary soda tax. I would it work would Canadian support it. What are the costs and benefits? Hi, natalie. Thanks for having how often do does this kind of thing, come up. I mean it seems it seems like it's something we hear about somewhere else in the world fairly frequently. I'll it's coming up more and more. Frequently a number of countries have implemented a sugar sweetened beverage tax over the last, I would say five years, especially and then in two thousand sixteen the World Health Organization, formerly endore endorsed sugar sweetened beverage tax, and so that kind of put it back into the forefront of public health officials and that resulted in more countries implementing such attacks. So what does excessive sugar intake look? Like in Canada. What are we struggling with well sugar intake in Canada is a bit of a moving target. Because it's always changing and changing over time as, as all food, patterns, do sugar intake in Canada has increased probably from about the nineteen eighties up until the early two thousands with sugar sweetened beverages, contributing the most to free sugar intake in Canada. However, since about two thousand four intake of sugar, sweetened beverages, like pop or Kool aid, or Tang, those types of drinks, have decreased over the last ten years, but the most commonly consumed sugar sweetened beverage in Canada is actually sugar, sweetened coffee, real nets in crew that's increased since two thousand and four. So that also includes drinks like Frappuccino or rapid. Closed. Those types of drinks, so, like anything, not just food. I mean, there's fads, right? And in the past, and I mean, people still drink pop up that tended to be one of the biggest contributors to sugar intake in Canada. So what would a sugar tax actually do in Canada? What would it look like? And I guess just based on the research you're doing what, what would that look like? Well, we don't really know what it would look like. And that's part of what my research is about because there are a lot of questions that are unanswered and kind of complexities around that. So one is I already talked about the different types of drinks. So some of my research is looking at what have other countries done in terms of which drinks are included in sugar sweetened beverage taxation, because there are so many drinks. Pacino's. I can't I can't. Well, that's an that's an important question. And the countries that have implemented that, you know, there's quite a bit of variation in whether or not Frappuccino are included. And what type of Frappuccino is because there are Frappuccino that are bottled and sold in grocery stores. There are also Frappuccino that are made on site where the sugar is added at the point of purchase, and then it becomes administratively difficult to decide, you know, what, what gets taxed in whether or not we added after, and how does that contribute, or like, look, according to what we're drinking overtime because anytime we're talking about public health policy were interested in population level effect. So who is it affecting? And if we don't include Frappuccino, or some Frappuccino is, you know, is that the majority of the drinks people are drinking now. So that's one aspect of what would it look like in Canada? What kinds of drinks, and if we don't. Don't include certain drinks. What does that mean for for different groups? I'm in, in the other question that I have is related more. So to the taxation aspect of it in terms of, you know, different jurisdictions have different laws like, whether this is a provincial tax federal tax, what could, or would that look like for first nations reserves, which are different jurisdictions, and how would that influence the purchasing environment related to sugary drinks? So that's another important question. And then the other question is about tax revenue, would that look like do we idea from places that have already implemented attacks like this? What kind of deterrent at has on the actual purchase and consumption of these drinks? Yes, there's been quite a bit of research. I would say while a growing amount and generally. So, for example, Mexico. They've seen an overall decrease in sugar sweetened Bev. Bridge purchases. But there's also been an increase in purchasing other nontaxed beverages. So it, it becomes really hard to assess what's really happening in what you're measuring is that what we should be measuring on. So one of the other places at a introduced the tax is Philadelphia, but one of the issues with implementing it in a municipality or a smaller geographic area is the Leif seen sales of sugary drinks decrease in Philadelphia. They've increased right outside the city. So what is the net game or net benefit? I don't we don't really know because it's so complicated. And then what is the other question is the revenue, you know, what else is happening to change intake like so, for example, in Mexico as a country that country had one of the highest intakes of sugary drinks? So there was probably only one way for it to go, which is down and in Canada. Our intake also. On down, but we didn't have tax. Is that just a result of kind of more awareness, more health marketing, I think so I mean in the research I've done so far, most people have heard that sugar is not great for their health. It's not a surprise to most people. They're they're quite aware. So I think that, that has contributed quite a bit probably to the decrease in consumption among certain groups, particularly the more higher educated, people have reduced their consumption in the response, either from people who kind of participate, or just from people, you end up discussing this with our people, generally for or against sugar tax because I'm fascinated by the reaction. Oh, I think I've heard everything what I say. Most people are supportive or unsupportive, I'd say it's pretty divided for a lot of different reasons. And generally, I'm pretty if people are just talking to me. I'm pretty neutral built my own feelings. So I think people are being honest. But yeah, there's, there's a mix there support, there's anger and everything in between. How similar would this be to the taxing? We do of tobacco. And do we have research that, that puts sugar kind of, in those categories or even a system like that already in place that we could use? That's a great question. A lot of people who support the sugar sweetened beverage tax have compared it to tobacco because there's a lot of the same kind of dynamics with industry and then you know, the tactics right, the tactic is the same taxing. I think there are a lot of lessons, we have learned from tobacco, which we should think about. And I mean, there are a lot of other policies that have targeted tobacco that are not taxation that contributed to changes in smoking rates. But then also how he'd be tobacco? So, yeah. Yeah. I think there's a lot to learn not just the success. So in, in the success is usually attributed to the decrease in smoking, we've seen over the last number of decades. But we also still see quite a number of people who smoke and yeah, so I, yeah, I think there's a lot to learn. Sort of the huge spectrum of responses both in support or against something like this, and given given our current political climate in which every party tends to be either for something or totally against it. Do you think there's any traction here, politically for this kind of tax? I think right now there's probably not a lot of traction discussion kind of heated up about this sugar sweetened beverage tax when the liberals, I came into government, and they were developing their healthy eating strategy, and it was considered, and then the government ended up deciding to go with different policies. So, for example, we got the new candidates food guide. They opt investments to nutrition, north Canada. And then there's also going to be a, a food marketing ban targeting children. So there won't be any marketing of unhealthy foods towards children, and that's going to be coming out in the next two years, or so, I think a lot of the discussion in the future will depend on how the next. Election goes because. Yeah, I think depending on which party gets in power that could shape whether or not this gets on the, the and then the other thing is probably the carbon tax, you know, just put in this carbon tax. So does another part does the party wanna put in another one. Here's a question without getting into because I know the freedom of choice libertarian angle of this is really an issue because people want to be able to choose what they buy and consume putting that aside would implementing attacks like this hurt. Anyone would there be anybody who would lobby against it from a business or health point of view? Well, there's already been lobbyists lobbying against it. Obviously, the big ones the beverage association and also small businesses, and I'm particularly interested in how this might affect low income groups people who are food, insecure or who struggle to afford food. Food tend to be higher consumers of sugary drinks. So I think when we're considering raising the price of a drink disproportionately consumed by people who can't afford food. That's an important ethical question. This is what we started to see now with tobacco, as you know, you're hurting, our punishing people for you know engaging in these behaviors. But there's not a lot of support for alternatives or, or in the case of smoking, smoking cessation programs or you know, in case of food, we haven't really done much to reduce food insecurity. You feel like we'll have a handle on the costs and benefits of this over the next couple of years, because, like I mentioned at the beginning, you know, this is an issue that sort of seems to pop up every year or two, and it would it would be lovely if we could figure out whether or not, this is a way forward for us, or we just have to stop proposing me, personally. Well, I think we need to kind of go back to what is the. The problem. And because this is a public health policy in my expertise, public health. I'm not convinced yet of what, what the problem is like to me, an and I'm interested in health equity. I don't see this policy necessarily promoting health equity or fairness. I mean we see the highest rates of type two diabetes, cardiovascular disease among low socio economic groups, lower income, lower education. And what we've seen with tobacco is the those are the same groups that continue to have the highest prevalence of smoking. So I, I don't see how that has could reduce inequalities I. Yeah. I think we need to get a handle on yet. What is the problem? I mean, are we going to reduce obesity nowhere? That's implemented this policy have we seen a reduction in obesity, which was theoretically, the main aim of this policy. Now. Yes. That now that would be the goal. We've Vilnai's food for a long time. That's been our ammo in nutrition, you know, meat eggs, don't eat saturated fat or any fat. And now we've just kind of villain is the next food hasn't made us healthier. I mean, people usually take up that knowledge in change what they eat. I don't see it necessarily changing a whole lot on the health front of populations. And I think I'm very interested in socially, how the tax might impact people because it's positioned as an obesity, reduction strategy in, we have a lot of weight stigma in Canada. And in high income countries where we shame and blame people for their weight. And this kind of just continues that same narrative. And I don't know that at the population level. That's all that help. Awful because there's been more and more research showing people can't lose weight. It's just almost impossible. So these are some tough questions, we need to wrestle with. We need to keep making people feel bad for the food that they eat.
