00:14:38,790 --> 00:14:36,639 then oh yeah i remember them back 10 420 00:14:39,670 --> 00:14:38,800 years ago i wonder what they're doing 421 00:14:41,350 --> 00:14:39,680 now 422 00:14:42,470 --> 00:14:41,360 we've had people like that in the peak 423 00:14:44,870 --> 00:14:42,480 oil scene 424 00:14:47,030 --> 00:14:44,880 who were who made a huge amount of noise 425 00:14:49,509 --> 00:14:47,040 denouncing and criticizing and 426 00:14:50,710 --> 00:14:49,519 condemning and and now it's 427 00:14:52,230 --> 00:14:50,720 who are they 428 00:14:54,710 --> 00:14:52,240 whereas those of us who are approaching 429 00:14:56,550 --> 00:14:54,720 the thing in in in a more cooperative 430 00:14:58,389 --> 00:14:56,560 fashion those of us who were you know 431 00:14:59,750 --> 00:14:58,399 even though we disagree sharply about 432 00:15:01,030 --> 00:14:59,760 issues who are willing to sit down 433 00:15:03,189 --> 00:15:01,040 together and talk 434 00:15:05,590 --> 00:15:03,199 we're still here 435 00:15:07,350 --> 00:15:05,600 so you know be just 436 00:15:09,509 --> 00:15:07,360 when when the when when the crap is 437 00:15:12,230 --> 00:15:09,519 flying fast and thick just remember you 438 00:15:14,310 --> 00:15:12,240 can outlast these people 439 00:15:17,509 --> 00:15:14,320 well it's 440 00:15:19,030 --> 00:15:17,519 this is very true and or at some point 441 00:15:21,509 --> 00:15:19,040 you just stop 442 00:15:22,310 --> 00:15:21,519 caring like you you drown it out 443 00:15:27,670 --> 00:15:22,320 and 444 00:15:29,990 --> 00:15:27,680 it's like if you can either give in to 445 00:15:32,069 --> 00:15:30,000 the hate or you can you can go with it 446 00:15:33,910 --> 00:15:32,079 or you know or and or you can just you 447 00:15:35,829 --> 00:15:33,920 can ignore it and hope to god it doesn't 448 00:15:38,470 --> 00:15:35,839 actually touch you or you can you can 449 00:15:39,910 --> 00:15:38,480 fight against it uh sometimes as i say 450 00:15:42,389 --> 00:15:39,920 you know or my mother used to say all 451 00:15:43,750 --> 00:15:42,399 the time if uh the 452 00:15:45,910 --> 00:15:43,760 was it the nail that sticks out gets the 453 00:15:48,629 --> 00:15:45,920 hammer um i've always i've always been 454 00:15:50,069 --> 00:15:48,639 that nail and sometimes willingly 455 00:15:52,829 --> 00:15:50,079 so 456 00:15:58,230 --> 00:15:54,389 yeah 457 00:16:00,710 --> 00:15:58,240 now i know we like on the last show 458 00:16:03,509 --> 00:16:00,720 we had and i was going to 459 00:16:04,550 --> 00:16:03,519 uh not having internet is um 460 00:16:06,230 --> 00:16:04,560 kind of interesting because i was 461 00:16:07,670 --> 00:16:06,240 actually going to listen to the the the 462 00:16:10,949 --> 00:16:07,680 last 463 00:16:12,470 --> 00:16:10,959 one of the episodes that i can listen to 464 00:16:14,629 --> 00:16:12,480 i don't like listening to my own voice 465 00:16:16,949 --> 00:16:14,639 it's it's one of those things 466 00:16:19,670 --> 00:16:16,959 um 467 00:16:22,870 --> 00:16:19,680 and like even for myself i remember 468 00:16:25,590 --> 00:16:22,880 that even though 469 00:16:27,189 --> 00:16:25,600 the information was new or different 470 00:16:28,629 --> 00:16:27,199 you know we we had some because we're 471 00:16:29,910 --> 00:16:28,639 freemasons we have something in common 472 00:16:31,430 --> 00:16:29,920 that at least gives us that bond and 473 00:16:33,829 --> 00:16:31,440 that's the whole idea of fraternity so 474 00:16:34,949 --> 00:16:33,839 there is that instantaneous connection 475 00:16:37,110 --> 00:16:34,959 it's 476 00:16:39,590 --> 00:16:37,120 very similar to if you uh find somebody 477 00:16:41,749 --> 00:16:39,600 who you know watches game of thrones 478 00:16:44,389 --> 00:16:41,759 and just you watch game of thrones oh my 479 00:16:46,629 --> 00:16:44,399 well do you watch game of thrones 480 00:16:49,030 --> 00:16:46,639 do i no i don't i actually haven't owned 481 00:16:50,629 --> 00:16:49,040 a television in my adult life so but i 482 00:16:52,629 --> 00:16:50,639 had the same experience 483 00:16:54,870 --> 00:16:52,639 you know scroll back a few decades back 484 00:16:57,189 --> 00:16:54,880 when the lord of the rings was still 485 00:17:00,550 --> 00:16:57,199 relatively i and not new i was published 486 00:17:03,269 --> 00:17:00,560 before i was born but when it was really 487 00:17:05,350 --> 00:17:03,279 the major presence in fantasy yeah you'd 488 00:17:07,189 --> 00:17:05,360 meet somebody who had also read the 489 00:17:08,309 --> 00:17:07,199 trilogy and all of a sudden click you 490 00:17:09,990 --> 00:17:08,319 know you 491 00:17:11,669 --> 00:17:10,000 there's a common ground of conversation 492 00:17:13,429 --> 00:17:11,679 there 493 00:17:16,069 --> 00:17:13,439 and exactly and it allows you to be able 494 00:17:18,630 --> 00:17:16,079 to form um you know a bond just beyond 495 00:17:20,870 --> 00:17:18,640 two people passing in the night um yeah 496 00:17:22,630 --> 00:17:20,880 i'm i'm trying to at least decide from 497 00:17:24,150 --> 00:17:22,640 uh you know from from 498 00:17:26,390 --> 00:17:24,160 an esoteric standpoint whether this is 499 00:17:28,549 --> 00:17:26,400 something that was known uh originally 500 00:17:30,070 --> 00:17:28,559 from the old the old guilds whenever 501 00:17:31,350 --> 00:17:30,080 they had actually 502 00:17:34,390 --> 00:17:31,360 started forming 503 00:17:36,070 --> 00:17:34,400 uh obviously if if you're a stone cutter 504 00:17:37,029 --> 00:17:36,080 and you're being brought onto a site 505 00:17:38,150 --> 00:17:37,039 that 506 00:17:39,350 --> 00:17:38,160 uh well 507 00:17:41,029 --> 00:17:39,360 essentially you're going to be building 508 00:17:42,390 --> 00:17:41,039 a building with these people for a very 509 00:17:43,350 --> 00:17:42,400 long time and then your kids are 510 00:17:45,110 --> 00:17:43,360 probably going to be building this 511 00:17:46,950 --> 00:17:45,120 building with your kids 512 00:17:48,310 --> 00:17:46,960 you know you're going to have if you 513 00:17:50,630 --> 00:17:48,320 don't know the language if you don't 514 00:17:52,630 --> 00:17:50,640 know the the culture the what you do 515 00:17:54,390 --> 00:17:52,640 actually have in common is your your 516 00:17:55,270 --> 00:17:54,400 knowledge and ability to shape and work 517 00:17:56,630 --> 00:17:55,280 stone 518 00:17:57,830 --> 00:17:56,640 and everything else kind of goes from 519 00:17:58,870 --> 00:17:57,840 there 520 00:18:00,870 --> 00:17:58,880 so 521 00:18:04,549 --> 00:18:00,880 if 522 00:18:07,029 --> 00:18:04,559 a basis like how how have you seen this 523 00:18:09,750 --> 00:18:07,039 in in the druid order 524 00:18:12,070 --> 00:18:09,760 um well druidry is complicated that way 525 00:18:13,590 --> 00:18:12,080 because um freemasonry has the huge 526 00:18:15,750 --> 00:18:13,600 advantage that there's basically i mean 527 00:18:17,590 --> 00:18:15,760 there's a set of landmarks okay 528 00:18:19,110 --> 00:18:17,600 and everybody more or less corresponds 529 00:18:21,750 --> 00:18:19,120 to the you know 530 00:18:23,750 --> 00:18:21,760 there's those are common 531 00:18:25,190 --> 00:18:23,760 everybody who recognizes the landmarks 532 00:18:26,950 --> 00:18:25,200 everybody who belongs to grand lodges 533 00:18:28,870 --> 00:18:26,960 that recognize each other there's that 534 00:18:30,150 --> 00:18:28,880 common thing druidry 535 00:18:32,630 --> 00:18:30,160 um 536 00:18:34,710 --> 00:18:32,640 is much less unified 537 00:18:37,029 --> 00:18:34,720 within individual druid orders there's a 538 00:18:39,029 --> 00:18:37,039 lot of that a lot of camaraderie within 539 00:18:40,710 --> 00:18:39,039 the certain classes of organizations 540 00:18:42,710 --> 00:18:40,720 that where there's there are connections 541 00:18:43,990 --> 00:18:42,720 there's for example the order that i 542 00:18:45,110 --> 00:18:44,000 used to have the internet of druids in 543 00:18:47,110 --> 00:18:45,120 america 544 00:18:49,350 --> 00:18:47,120 and the order of bards ovates and druids 545 00:18:50,549 --> 00:18:49,360 which is um i think still the largest 546 00:18:52,310 --> 00:18:50,559 druid order in the world these days 547 00:18:54,390 --> 00:18:52,320 which i've i also belong to i've also 548 00:18:55,830 --> 00:18:54,400 studied with them um there's a there's a 549 00:18:57,830 --> 00:18:55,840 huge amount overlap there there's a lot 550 00:18:59,590 --> 00:18:57,840 of a lot of very common ground and yeah 551 00:19:01,029 --> 00:18:59,600 you know you me and and somebody from 552 00:19:02,390 --> 00:19:01,039 aoda meets someone from obot and 553 00:19:04,070 --> 00:19:02,400 instantly it's oh yeah you know they're 554 00:19:05,270 --> 00:19:04,080 they're talking druidry if they're 555 00:19:07,110 --> 00:19:05,280 meeting something from the celtic 556 00:19:08,470 --> 00:19:07,120 reconstructionist end of things you 557 00:19:10,710 --> 00:19:08,480 might as well be trying to communicate 558 00:19:13,270 --> 00:19:10,720 through the berlin wall because there 559 00:19:16,310 --> 00:19:13,280 are not the common ground does not exist 560 00:19:17,909 --> 00:19:16,320 and so it's you know it's complicated 561 00:19:19,830 --> 00:19:17,919 but you know i think one of the things 562 00:19:21,350 --> 00:19:19,840 one of the things that makes freemasonry 563 00:19:23,430 --> 00:19:21,360 that makes that such a very important 564 00:19:25,510 --> 00:19:23,440 freemasonry is precisely that there was 565 00:19:27,430 --> 00:19:25,520 the old occupational connection 566 00:19:29,190 --> 00:19:27,440 i've recently for for a fiction project 567 00:19:32,070 --> 00:19:29,200 i'm working on been reading a lot of 568 00:19:34,310 --> 00:19:32,080 material from um on what it was like to 569 00:19:35,510 --> 00:19:34,320 sail on one of the old tall ships back 570 00:19:37,510 --> 00:19:35,520 in the day 571 00:19:39,750 --> 00:19:37,520 and one of the things that's mentioned 572 00:19:42,549 --> 00:19:39,760 there is you know you get a competent 573 00:19:44,470 --> 00:19:42,559 sailor who might not speak a word of 574 00:19:46,070 --> 00:19:44,480 your language you know you're you're 575 00:19:47,590 --> 00:19:46,080 it's an american ship 576 00:19:48,950 --> 00:19:47,600 and they say somebody comes on board 577 00:19:51,510 --> 00:19:48,960 he's a finnish sailor he doesn't speak a 578 00:19:53,669 --> 00:19:51,520 word of english but he's a good sailor 579 00:19:55,830 --> 00:19:53,679 he knows what to do you could very 580 00:19:57,669 --> 00:19:55,840 quickly work out enough language that 581 00:19:59,270 --> 00:19:57,679 everyone understands what's to be done 582 00:20:00,470 --> 00:19:59,280 and there's an instant brotherhood 583 00:20:02,470 --> 00:20:00,480 because 584 00:20:04,789 --> 00:20:02,480 you're a sailor he's a sailor you know 585 00:20:07,029 --> 00:20:04,799 you've got all these common skills you 586 00:20:08,549 --> 00:20:07,039 have these common responsibilities you 587 00:20:10,870 --> 00:20:08,559 know what's like you know what it's like 588 00:20:13,350 --> 00:20:10,880 to serve in the forecastle and so to me 589 00:20:15,190 --> 00:20:13,360 the folks will and away you go 590 00:20:17,510 --> 00:20:15,200 so i think the fact that the masonry 591 00:20:19,830 --> 00:20:17,520 does come out of this heritage of 592 00:20:21,029 --> 00:20:19,840 medieval and renaissance 593 00:20:22,310 --> 00:20:21,039 skills 594 00:20:24,549 --> 00:20:22,320 gives it 595 00:20:27,110 --> 00:20:24,559 frankly more of a capacity to bond 596 00:20:28,950 --> 00:20:27,120 because we've still got the the relics 597 00:20:30,310 --> 00:20:28,960 if you will of that set of habits in 598 00:20:32,950 --> 00:20:30,320 place 599 00:20:34,630 --> 00:20:32,960 and obviously the the ability to kind of 600 00:20:36,149 --> 00:20:34,640 uh you're in close quarters so getting 601 00:20:37,590 --> 00:20:36,159 along is kind of necessary especially if 602 00:20:39,029 --> 00:20:37,600 you're over water for extended periods 603 00:20:41,590 --> 00:20:39,039 of time 604 00:20:43,750 --> 00:20:41,600 yeah and yeah when you're on and it is 605 00:20:45,029 --> 00:20:43,760 just like yeah it's just like being on 606 00:20:46,070 --> 00:20:45,039 you know being on a building site where 607 00:20:47,590 --> 00:20:46,080 you're gonna be working with you know 608 00:20:49,830 --> 00:20:47,600 this cathedral is going to take probably 609 00:20:51,430 --> 00:20:49,840 200 years to build you will spend the 610 00:20:52,549 --> 00:20:51,440 rest of your life with the same group of 611 00:20:54,789 --> 00:20:52,559 men 612 00:20:56,549 --> 00:20:54,799 you've got to get along with them 613 00:20:58,390 --> 00:20:56,559 and you know there's also a lot more rum 614 00:20:59,990 --> 00:20:58,400 and obviously you've probably saved 615 00:21:01,430 --> 00:21:00,000 their lives a couple of times you know 616 00:21:03,909 --> 00:21:01,440 straight yeah 617

1094 00:37:19,349 --> 00:37:17,520 as it was originally um published in 1095 00:37:23,589 --> 00:37:19,359 1630 1096 00:37:25,670 --> 00:37:23,599 by gerard tibos the author um he was the 1097 00:37:27,829 --> 00:37:25,680 he was kind of the bruce lee of the 1098 00:37:29,349 --> 00:37:27,839 rapier in his time he was an extremely 1099 00:37:30,790 --> 00:37:29,359 skilled swordsman 1100 00:37:31,510 --> 00:37:30,800 um died young 1101 00:37:32,470 --> 00:37:31,520 but 1102 00:37:35,030 --> 00:37:32,480 uh 1103 00:37:37,510 --> 00:37:35,040 yeah he he basically 1104 00:37:39,910 --> 00:37:37,520 well this okay we're talking renaissance 1105 00:37:42,150 --> 00:37:39,920 europe late renaissance europe um the 1106 00:37:43,589 --> 00:37:42,160 sword had become it was less of a 1107 00:37:45,829 --> 00:37:43,599 military less of a military assault 1108 00:37:46,870 --> 00:37:45,839 weapon in those days um dueling was more 1109 00:37:49,349 --> 00:37:46,880 common 1110 00:37:50,870 --> 00:37:49,359 firearms had come in and so a war had 1111 00:37:52,950 --> 00:37:50,880 become a matter of pike and musket 1112 00:37:54,870 --> 00:37:52,960 rather than you know knights in armor 1113 00:37:57,990 --> 00:37:54,880 hacking each other with swords 1114 00:38:00,550 --> 00:37:58,000 and so the sword had been subjected to 1115 00:38:02,470 --> 00:38:00,560 the same sort of intellectual inquiry 1116 00:38:04,630 --> 00:38:02,480 and experimentation that the renaissance 1117 00:38:07,109 --> 00:38:04,640 did in so many other fields 1118 00:38:08,870 --> 00:38:07,119 and first in italy and then in spain you 1119 00:38:10,470 --> 00:38:08,880 had people who started saying hold it 1120 00:38:12,230 --> 00:38:10,480 you know we have these new swords which 1121 00:38:14,550 --> 00:38:12,240 are the repair which is long and 1122 00:38:15,829 --> 00:38:14,560 straight and is used not to cut but stab 1123 00:38:17,030 --> 00:38:15,839 mostly 1124 00:38:18,710 --> 00:38:17,040 and 1125 00:38:20,069 --> 00:38:18,720 it's geometrical 1126 00:38:21,990 --> 00:38:20,079 it's a line 1127 00:38:23,750 --> 00:38:22,000 and this line is intersecting another 1128 00:38:25,670 --> 00:38:23,760 line the other guy's sword and it is 1129 00:38:27,430 --> 00:38:25,680 piercing penetrating various surfaces of 1130 00:38:29,109 --> 00:38:27,440 the other guy's body 1131 00:38:30,950 --> 00:38:29,119 can we understand swordsmanship through 1132 00:38:33,349 --> 00:38:30,960 geometry 1133 00:38:35,589 --> 00:38:33,359 and so you had this whole movement to 1134 00:38:38,470 --> 00:38:35,599 try to make sense of swordsmanship as a 1135 00:38:40,710 --> 00:38:38,480 geometrical art at a time when geometry 1136 00:38:43,270 --> 00:38:40,720 was was all through europe perfused with 1137 00:38:44,950 --> 00:38:43,280 pythagorean influences with the ideas of 1138 00:38:47,510 --> 00:38:44,960 sacred geometry with the same kind of 1139 00:38:48,710 --> 00:38:47,520 ideas that led to freemasonry in fact 1140 00:38:50,550 --> 00:38:48,720 and so 1141 00:38:53,829 --> 00:38:50,560 um thibaut 1142 00:38:56,230 --> 00:38:53,839 thibaut was born in what's now um part 1143 00:38:57,109 --> 00:38:56,240 of belgium he was born in antwerp 1144 00:38:59,190 --> 00:38:57,119 and 1145 00:39:00,630 --> 00:38:59,200 went down to spain his family had was in 1146 00:39:02,230 --> 00:39:00,640 the woolen trade and made connection to 1147 00:39:04,470 --> 00:39:02,240 the south of spain and south of spain 1148 00:39:05,589 --> 00:39:04,480 was a hotbed of fencing in these years 1149 00:39:07,270 --> 00:39:05,599 you had 1150 00:39:08,390 --> 00:39:07,280 just these brilliant swordsmen down 1151 00:39:09,750 --> 00:39:08,400 there who were working with this 1152 00:39:11,910 --> 00:39:09,760 geometrical stuff 1153 00:39:14,150 --> 00:39:11,920 and tebow goes down there and he's here 1154 00:39:16,150 --> 00:39:14,160 for like 10 years learning everything he 1155 00:39:17,270 --> 00:39:16,160 can and then he comes back home 1156 00:39:18,550 --> 00:39:17,280 and 1157 00:39:19,990 --> 00:39:18,560 starts you know just sparring with 1158 00:39:21,430 --> 00:39:20,000 people in the ordinary way of things 1159 00:39:23,349 --> 00:39:21,440 there were 1160 00:39:24,390 --> 00:39:23,359 basically gymnasium dojos we'd say 1161 00:39:25,270

were all over the place and all of 1165 00:39:32,310 --> 00:39:30,000 a sudden people were going who is this 1166 00:39:35,190 --> 00:39:32,320 this tibo guy and why is he cleaning the 1167 00:39:37,349 --> 00:39:35,200 floor with everybody 1168 00:39:38,870 --> 00:39:37,359 and so finally he ended up taking part 1169 00:39:41,829 --> 00:39:38,880 in the big the 1170 00:39:43,829 --> 00:39:41,839 this big tournament in northwest in 1171 00:39:45,990 --> 00:39:43,839 northwestern europe up in i think it was 1172 00:39:48,390 --> 00:39:46,000 in antwerp actually and people came 1173

00:39:56,150 --> 00:39:54,880 now and um william of orange who was the 1177 00:39:57,589 --> 00:39:56,160 the head of the dutch head of state 1178 00:40:00,470 --> 00:39:57,599 right across the border

equivalent 1182 00:40:09,349 --> 00:40:07,599 podcast except so he proceeded to give a 1183 00:40:10,790 --> 00:40:09,359 demonstration for three days where he 1184 00:40:13,510 --> 00:40:10,800 took on all comers 1185 00:40:15,109 --> 00:40:13,520 come on let's cross swords clunk now 1186 00:40:16,550 --> 00:40:15,119 they were all doing it with blunted 1187 00:40:17,990 --> 00:40:16,560 points so there were no corpses at the 1188 00:40:19,829 --> 00:40:18,000 end of this process but had it been 1189 00:40:21,829 --> 00:40:19,839 sharp the the you know it's like a 1190 00:40:23,109 -->

00:40:46,310 --> 00:40:43,040 to work to write this book and it is 1202 00:40:49,109 --> 00:40:46,320 actually the largest single book on 1203 00:40:50,710 --> 00:40:49,119 on swordsmanship ever

00:41:40,309 --> 00:41:38,240 well there you go but 1228 00:41:42,630 --> 00:41:40,319 but in but in actual practice again this 1229 00:41:44,790 --> 00:41:42,640 is 16 30 okay we're moving away from the 1230 00:41:47,829 --> 00:41:44,800 sort of elizabethan look with the big 1231 00:41:49,750 --> 00:41:47,839 rough colors and the big puppy you know 1232 00:41:51,109 --> 00:41:49,760 peas cod doublets and all this kind of 1233 00:41:54,230 --> 00:41:51,119 stuff and toward 1234 00:41:57,030 --> 00:41:54,240 um the sort of english civil war period 1235 00:41:58,550 --> 00:41:57,040 um look but hadn't gotten there yet so 1236 00:42:01,030 --> 00:41:58,560 yeah you have these these sort of these 1237 00:42:03,109 --> 00:42:01,040 sort of puffed uh short panel wounds the 1238 00:42:04,950 --> 00:42:03,119 long hose and the doublets 1239 00:42:06,710 --> 00:42:04,960 laced up tight to the neck 1240 00:42:08,470 --> 00:42:06,720 and and you know sleeved in this kind of 1241 00:42:10,150 --> 00:42:08,480 stuff yeah yeah i've got a picture of it 1242 00:42:13,190 --> 00:42:10,160 i've actually have a picture from the 1243 00:42:14,710 --> 00:42:13,200 book that i found on on google and the 1244 00:42:16,069 --> 00:42:14,720 it's essentially the 1245 00:42:18,630 --> 00:42:16,079 i think they're in training in the in 1246 00:42:20,550 --> 00:42:18,640 this image uh there's they're standing 1247 00:42:22,550 --> 00:42:20,560 across one another swords outstretched 1248 00:42:24,069 --> 00:42:22,560 and pointing at one another and they're 1249 00:42:25,430 --> 00:42:24,079 wearing you know they're wearing 1250 00:42:28,790 --> 00:42:25,440 something that that looks like it's out 1251 00:42:30,870 --> 00:42:28,800 of while my my 10th grade drama class um 1252 00:42:32,870 --> 00:42:30,880 exactly there are there are four on each 1253 00:42:34,950 --> 00:42:32,880 side right that's correct yes okay it's 1254 00:42:36,950 --> 00:42:34,960 that's that's the introductory um image 1255 00:42:38,950 --> 00:42:36,960 from chapter three where he's showing 1256 00:42:40,870 --> 00:42:38,960 you the what the stance is like and how 1257 00:42:44,470 --> 00:42:40,880 you enter into it 1258 00:42:47,030 --> 00:42:44,480 okay now where where exactly well where 1259 00:42:49,270 --> 00:42:47,040 did exactly did he get the idea for this 1260 00:42:50,790 --> 00:42:49,280 like for for this system like is it is 1261 00:42:51,990 --> 00:42:50,800 there any reference as far as the origin 1262 00:42:54,390 --> 00:42:52,000 for it 1263 00:42:56,230 --> 00:42:54,400 oh yeah again it this came out of the 1264 00:42:58,230 --> 00:42:56,240 the whole that whole what i was talking 1265 00:43:00,150 --> 00:42:58,240 about earlier the whole scene first in 1266 00:43:01,270 --> 00:43:00,160 italy and then in spain where people 1267 00:43:02,950 --> 00:43:01,280 were 1268 00:43:04,550 --> 00:43:02,960 doing developing these systems of 1269 00:43:05,270 --> 00:43:04,560 geometrical fencing and they were doing 1270 00:43:10,309 --> 00:43:05,280 it 1271 00:43:12,470 --> 00:43:10,319 totally okay to call someone out for a 1272 00:43:14,630 --> 00:43:12,480 duel and kill them 1273 00:43:17,190 --> 00:43:14,640 over some insult 1274 00:43:18,470 --> 00:43:17,200 you know you elbowed me sir 1275 00:43:20,069 --> 00:43:18,480 i will see you on the field of honor and 1276 00:43:21,829 --> 00:43:20,079 you don't kill each other 1277 00:43:24,230 --> 00:43:21,839 and this is legal it was commonly 1278 00:43:26,309 --> 00:43:24,240 practiced it happened all the time so if 1279 00:43:28,390 --> 00:43:26,319 you were a member you know a gentleman 1280 00:43:30,390 --> 00:43:28,400 in one of the classes that was 1281 00:43:32,870 --> 00:43:30,400 at risk of dueling 1282 00:43:34,710 --> 00:43:32,880 you either learned to use a sword or 1283 00:43:36,390 --> 00:43:34,720 you started raping money for your 1284 00:43:38,150 --> 00:43:36,400 tombstone 1285 00:43:42,309 --> 00:43:38,160 because things like that happen all the 1286 00:43:43,990 --> 00:43:42,319 time and so in that viciously darwinian 1287 00:43:45,349 --> 00:43:44,000 environment where you you know if you 1288 00:43:47,430 --> 00:43:45,359 knew how to use a sword you were going 1289 00:43:49,430 --> 00:43:47,440 to you were going to survive and 1290 00:43:50,710 --> 00:43:49,440 and thrive and prosper and if you didn't 1291 00:43:53,510 --> 00:43:50,720 you would croak 1292 00:43:55,829 --> 00:43:53,520 um this spanish system became extremely 1293 00:43:58,390 --> 00:43:55,839 widespread and very popular and tebow 1294 00:43:59,510 --> 00:43:58,400 again he he developed it in some ways 1295 00:44:02,470 --> 00:43:59,520 originally 1296 00:44:05,109 --> 00:44:02,480 put in some new material um gave it his 1297 00:44:06,790 --> 00:44:05,119 own spin but it's very much part of this 1298 00:44:08,950 --> 00:44:06,800 broader world 1299 00:44:11,430 --> 00:44:08,960 of old-fashioned repair fencing that 1300 00:44:12,630 --> 00:44:11,440 went out around 1700 1301 00:44:16,710 --> 00:44:12,640 except in spain where it actually 1302 00:44:19,270 --> 00:44:18,150 sorry just 1303 00:44:20,550 --> 00:44:19,280 that's a problem whenever you you 1304 00:44:21,990 --> 00:44:20,560 breathe in too quickly so you get a 1305 00:44:24,550 --> 00:44:22,000 little spit in there it goes down the 1306 00:44:26,870 --> 00:44:24,560 wrong hole and you're done 1307 00:44:29,109 --> 00:44:26,880 i've always found like around this time 1308 00:44:31,349 --> 00:44:29,119 that that this um 1309 00:44:32,550 --> 00:44:31,359 type of fencing came about and it came 1310 00:44:34,309 --> 00:44:32,560 about essentially 1311 00:44:36,630 --> 00:44:34,319 because carrying large swords around and 1312 00:44:38,230 --> 00:44:36,640 covering yourself in plate armor was no 1313 00:44:39,270 --> 00:44:38,240 longer really feasible especially with 1314 00:44:41,670 --> 00:44:39,280 guns 1315 00:44:43,589 --> 00:44:41,680 so it was is a waste a waste of time 1316 00:44:45,510 --> 00:44:43,599 when some peasant with two weeks of 1317 00:44:47,670 --> 00:44:45,520 training could point a musket at you and 1318 00:44:49,589 --> 00:44:47,680 put a musket ball through the best armor 1319 00:44:51,670 --> 00:44:49,599 in europe and out the other side 1320 00:44:53,670 --> 00:44:51,680 and you're dead on the field why bother 1321 00:44:55,589 --> 00:44:53,680 with armor 1322 00:44:56,950 --> 00:44:55,599 so everyone just everyone just kind of 1323 00:44:58,630 --> 00:44:56,960 scrapped the plate armor except me you 1324 00:44:59,750 --> 00:44:58,640 know maybe a breastplate and helmet or 1325 00:45:02,230 --> 00:44:59,760 something if you 1326 00:45:05,109 --> 00:45:02,240 were expecting to deal with swords a lot 1327 00:45:07,589 --> 00:45:05,119 how familiar with with martial arts 1328 00:45:09,589 --> 00:45:07,599 um very i've studied i actually have i 1329 00:45:11,589 --> 00:45:09,599 actually have um 1330 00:45:14,390 --> 00:45:11,599 basic teaching credentials in one of the 1331 00:45:16,150 --> 00:45:14,400 old styles of tai chi okay so 1332 00:45:17,670 --> 00:45:16,160 essentially this is this is kind of the 1333 00:45:19,349 --> 00:45:17,680 the fencing equivalent or sword fighting 1334 00:45:21,109 --> 00:45:19,359 equivalent of 1335 00:45:23,510 --> 00:45:21,119 you know everyone's got tai chi 1336 00:45:25,349 --> 00:45:23,520 or or you know wing chun you know tiger 1337 00:45:26,870 --> 00:45:25,359 style all that and then let's say bruce 1338 00:45:28,790 --> 00:45:26,880 lee comes along and comes out with jit 1339 00:45:32,870 --> 00:45:28,800 kundo that was 1340 00:45:35,270 --> 00:45:32,880 essentially that that same level of no 1341 00:45:36,710 --> 00:45:35,280 nuts well again the the thing to keep in 1342 00:45:38,550 --> 00:45:36,720 mind is that the people up in 1343 00:45:41,670 --> 00:45:38,560 northwestern europe had never really 1344 00:45:43,670 --> 00:45:41,680 been exposed to the spanish and and 1345 00:45:46,230 --> 00:45:43,680 italian ideas it was more what happened 1346 00:45:47,670 --> 00:45:46,240 to the united states when you know we 1347 00:45:48,870 --> 00:45:47,680 had a lot of boxing and wrestling and 1348 00:45:50,150 --> 00:45:48,880 things and all of a sudden some people 1349 00:45:52,069 --> 00:45:50,160 start coming over who have gung-fu 1350 00:45:53,829 --> 00:45:52,079 training 1351 00:45:56,069 --> 00:45:53,839 and all of a sudden 1352 00:45:57,109 --> 00:45:56,079 what the heck was that 1353 00:45:59,320 --> 00:45:57,119 um 1354 00:46:01,670 --> 00:45:59,330 in terms of a martial art 1355 00:46:03,750 --> 00:46:01,680 [Music] 1356 00:46:05,589 --> 00:46:03,760 gerard tubo's teachings is rather more 1357 00:46:08,150 --> 00:46:05,599 similar to a classical gungfu system 1358 00:46:10,630 --> 00:46:08,160 than it is to say jeet kune do because 1359 00:46:13,349 --> 00:46:10,640 jeet kune do is very spontaneous 1360 00:46:15,109 --> 00:46:13,359 and tibo's system is very formal is very 1361 00:46:17,750 --> 00:46:15,119 structured 1362 00:46:19,990 --> 00:46:17,760 and so although he doesn't the the kata 1363 00:46:21,430 --> 00:46:20,000 if you will the the form the established 1364 00:46:24,309 --> 00:46:21,440 form had not yet gotten going in 1365 00:46:26,069 --> 00:46:24,319 european martial arts yet um he gives 1366 00:46:28,630 --> 00:46:26,079 specific techniques it's actually very 1367 00:46:31,190 --> 00:46:28,640 similar in a lot of ways to the koryu 1368 00:46:33,670 --> 00:46:31,200 the the classical japanese martial arts 1369 00:46:37,030 --> 00:46:33,680 forms from the samurai era 1370 00:46:40,550 --> 00:46:38,550 how do we know that it was 1371 00:46:42,470 --> 00:46:40,560 that was based on sacred geometry is it 1372 00:46:44,870 --> 00:46:42,480 is it completely stated that it's like 1373 00:46:47,109 --> 00:46:44,880 well you know i got these like i've been 1374 00:46:48,950 --> 00:46:47,119 observing nature and these lines are 1375 00:46:52,309 --> 00:46:48,960 based on this or 1376 00:46:55,109 --> 00:46:52,319 uh it's more that he starts you out by 1377 00:46:56,630 --> 00:46:55,119 showing you how to draw a circle based 1378 00:46:58,150 --> 00:46:56,640 on your own height and the length of 1379 00:46:58,950 --> 00:46:58,160 your sword which is 1380 00:47:02,230 --> 00:46:58,960 and 1381 00:47:05,190 --> 00:47:02,240 um set up a whole series of lines across 1382 00:47:07,510 --> 00:47:05,200 it and um dividing it and so on and 1383 00:47:09,270 --> 00:47:07,520 every movement you make is based on 1384 00:47:10,390 --> 00:47:09,280 positions of the circle and geometrical 1385 00:47:12,309 --> 00:47:10,400 lines 1386 00:47:13,750 --> 00:47:12,319 and he's constantly talking geometry 1387 00:47:15,670 --> 00:47:13,760 he's constantly quoting he quotes 1388 00:47:17,430 --> 00:47:15,680 carnelius agrippa the author of three 1389 00:47:19,829 --> 00:47:17,440 books of local philosophy extensively on 1390 00:47:21,829 --> 00:47:19,839 the geometry of the human body 1391 00:47:24,470 --> 00:47:21,839 so was he was he 1392 00:47:25,589 --> 00:47:24,480 rosicrucian or uh nobody knows nobody 1393 00:47:28,950 --> 00:47:25,599 knows 1394 00:47:30,390 --> 00:47:28,960 well the thing is in 1630 nobody talked 1395 00:47:32,150 --> 00:47:30,400 if you i mean everyone talked about the 1396 00:47:33,750 --> 00:47:32,160 rosicrucians but everybody who was 1397 00:47:35,270 --> 00:47:33,760 involved to it said well i you know i'm 1398 00:47:36,829 --> 00:47:35,280 interested this this stuff is 1399 00:47:39,270 --> 00:47:36,839 fascinating but of course i'm not a 1400 00:47:40,870 --> 00:47:39,280 rosicrucian tebow never mentioned it 1401 00:47:42,710 --> 00:47:40,880 um 1402 00:47:44,710 --> 00:47:42,720 i would say that 1403 00:47:48,150 --> 00:47:44,720 you know if you want to look at people 1404 00:47:50,069 --> 00:47:48,160 in the early 1700s the the original seed 1405 00:47:52,230 --> 00:47:50,079 bed of the rosicrucian movement who were 1406 00:47:53,829 --> 00:47:52,240 likely to have been involved in it uh 1407 00:47:55,589 --> 00:47:53,839 tibo's one 1408 00:47:56,870 --> 00:47:55,599 um you know there are others robert 1409 00:47:59,030 --> 00:47:56,880 flaud michael meyer all these other 1410 00:48:00,630 --> 00:47:59,040 people but tebow was very much part of 1411 00:48:02,710 --> 00:48:00,640 that same cultural movement and so it's 1412 00:48:05,190 --> 00:48:02,720 entirely possible that you know here we 1413 00:48:06,390 --> 00:48:05,200 have our surviving manual of rosicrucian 1414 00:48:07,910 --> 00:48:06,400 martial hearts 1415 00:48:10,309 --> 00:48:07,920 what is the difference between let's say 1416 00:48:12,309 --> 00:48:10,319 freemasonry and and rosicrucianism i i 1417 00:48:15,109 --> 00:48:12,319 have family members who apparently at 1418 00:48:16,870 --> 00:48:15,119 least again i love them to death i need 1419 00:48:19,349 --> 00:48:16,880 they claim to be rosicrucians or at 1420 00:48:21,109 -->

00:48:26,950 --> 00:48:24,400 anything to my knowledge here in in 1424 00:48:29,190 --> 00:48:26,960 ottawa there probably is 1425 00:48:31,109 --> 00:48:29,200 there's lots oh okay well i haven't i've 1426 00:48:33,349 --> 00:48:31,119 been i have not gone out looking i can 1427 00:48:36,230 --> 00:48:33,359 hardly deal with blue log scottish right 1428 00:48:38,549 --> 00:48:36,240 uh you know and the various uh uh 1429 00:48:40,309 --> 00:48:38,559 charity events that i do 1430 00:48:42,950 --> 00:48:40,319 get concerned you're already hopping 1431 00:48:44,710 --> 00:48:42,960 okay basically the the thing the thing 1432 00:48:46,790 --> 00:48:44,720 to remember with the rosicrucians 1433 00:48:48,710 --> 00:48:46,800 is that there was the original movement 1434 00:48:49,990 --> 00:48:48,720 in 17th century europe 1435 00:48:52,150 --> 00:48:50,000 you know the the original three 1436 00:48:54,790 --> 00:48:52,160 rosicrucian manifestos the proclamation 1437 00:48:58,150 --> 00:48:54,800 of the rosicrucian brotherhood 1438 00:49:00,470 --> 00:48:58,160 all the furor back and forth of that 1439 00:49:02,710 --> 00:49:00,480 by the next century you know there were 1440 00:49:04,150 --> 00:49:02,720 specific organizations in central europe 1441 00:49:05,510 --> 00:49:04,160 and elsewhere although nobody knows if 1442 00:49:06,710 --> 00:49:05,520 they were connected to the original 1443 00:49:08,790 --> 00:49:06,720 group 1444 00:49:10,390 --> 00:49:08,800 and then by the 20th century you have 1445 00:49:12,710 --> 00:49:10,400 groups springing up all over the place 1446 00:49:14,309 --> 00:49:12,720 that are borrowing the rosicrucian name 1447 00:49:17,349 --> 00:49:14,319 whether or not they have any connection 1448 00:49:20,069 --> 00:49:17,359 to the historical group there are 1449 00:49:21,750 --> 00:49:20,079 let's see that i know of four major 1450 00:49:23,589 --> 00:49:21,760 rosicrucian groups still very active in 1451 00:49:24,549 --> 00:49:23,599 north america 1452 00:49:25,829 --> 00:49:24,559 and 1453 00:49:27,589 --> 00:49:25,839 um 1454 00:49:29,190 --> 00:49:27,599 they they teach they teach various 1455 00:49:30,870 --> 00:49:29,200 systems of esoteric philosophy which 1456 00:49:32,309 --> 00:49:30,880 they claim date back to the original 1457 00:49:33,750 --> 00:49:32,319 rose of christian order in some cases 1458 00:49:35,349 --> 00:49:33,760 before that as well 1459 00:49:37,589 --> 00:49:35,359 and that you know they have they all 1460 00:49:39,109 --> 00:49:37,599 claim to be the real authentic original 1461 00:49:40,549 --> 00:49:39,119 secretions just like some old druid 1462 00:49:42,950 --> 00:49:40,559 groups claim to be the real authentic 1463 00:49:45,510 --> 00:49:42,960 ancient druids um they're probably not 1464 00:49:46,790 --> 00:49:45,520 but most of them do really have useful 1465 00:49:49,270 --> 00:49:46,800 things to teach 1466 00:49:50,710 --> 00:49:49,280 so if you ever find yourself with with 1467 00:49:52,309 --> 00:49:50,720 you know spare time to rub together talk 1468 00:49:54,069 --> 00:49:52,319 to your relatives 1469 00:49:56,710 --> 00:49:54,079 ask me you know ask them for ask them 1470 00:49:58,069 --> 00:49:56,720 for a you know um if they have a little 1471 00:49:59,589 --> 00:49:58,079 introductory pamphlet or something on 1472 00:50:01,030 --> 00:49:59,599 that you might be interested well it's a 1473 00:50:01,910 --> 00:50:01,040 possibility to have to ask him to scan 1474 00:50:03,910 --> 00:50:01,920 it because he doesn't live in this 1475 00:50:05,829 --> 00:50:03,920 continent 1476 00:50:06,870 --> 00:50:05,839 but still if that's the case like i know 1477 00:50:08,710 --> 00:50:06,880 that he 1478 00:50:09,829 --> 00:50:08,720 um when the last time i went to go visit 1479 00:50:11,190 --> 00:50:09,839 visit them 1480 00:50:13,270 --> 00:50:11,200 they had 1481 00:50:14,870 --> 00:50:13,280 he was either in it or was just entering 1482 00:50:17,030 --> 00:50:14,880 into it and 1483 00:50:19,030 --> 00:50:17,040 from what i can recall it he had told me 1484 00:50:21,030 --> 00:50:19,040 that there are 1485 00:50:22,630 --> 00:50:21,040 it's like what i would wish a an your 1486 00:50:24,470 --> 00:50:22,640 average freemason 1487 00:50:26,870 --> 00:50:24,480 um like your average for base tonight if 1488 00:50:28,790 --> 00:50:26,880 there's no degrees to do to be which is 1489 00:50:30,390 --> 00:50:28,800 essentially lecture 1490 00:50:31,990 --> 00:50:30,400 like presenting a lecture or at least 1491 00:50:34,630 --> 00:50:32,000 starting a discussion based on an idea 1492 00:50:36,470 --> 00:50:34,640 or concept to try and get people to the 1493 00:50:39,829 --> 00:50:36,480 core of an idea so that we can educate 1494 00:50:41,670 --> 00:50:39,839 ourselves as well as our fellow brethren 1495 00:50:43,030 --> 00:50:41,680 um you know as you know doesn't 1496 00:50:45,190 --> 00:50:43,040 necessarily happen all the time but what 1497 00:50:47,589 --> 00:50:45,200 are you going to do 1498 00:50:50,150 --> 00:50:47,599 whereas he said no we have to 1499 00:50:51,750 --> 00:50:50,160 give several on a on a constant basis 1500 00:50:53,430 --> 00:50:51,760 and we have to research them and they 1501 00:50:54,390 --> 00:50:53,440 have to be very good 1502 00:50:55,589 --> 00:50:54,400 and 1503 00:50:58,549 --> 00:50:55,599 he didn't he didn't go much more into 1504 00:50:58,559 --> 00:51:02,710 if it's if it's philosophical 1505 00:51:06,870 --> 00:51:04,230 i have to say from a history standpoint 1506 00:51:08,870 --> 00:51:06,880 the history is always great it's 1507 00:51:10,549 --> 00:51:08,880 more the practicality of it is it more 1508 00:51:11,990 --> 00:51:10,559 just a pure 1509 00:51:14,950 --> 00:51:12,000 knowledge-based 1510 00:51:17,589 --> 00:51:14,960 system or is it is it 1511 00:51:19,349 --> 00:51:17,599 it depends on which group it is okay um 1512 00:51:21,349 --> 00:51:19,359 let's see of the reservation of the the 1513 00:51:23,349 --> 00:51:21,359 four residual orders that i know of that 1514 00:51:26,470 --> 00:51:23,359 are still in circulation let's see the 1515 00:51:28,630 --> 00:51:26,480 fraternitas rosacruzis 1516 00:51:30,870 --> 00:51:28,640 um i don't know what they teach they're 1517 00:51:32,309 --> 00:51:30,880 they're teaching nothing has leaked out 1518 00:51:35,430 --> 00:51:32,319 um the ancient mystical ordeal 1519 00:51:37,270 --> 00:51:35,440 rosacrusis um i've i know some people 1520 00:51:38,790 --> 00:51:37,280 who are who are heavily involved in that 1521 00:51:40,950 --> 00:51:38,800 or who have been heavily involved in and 1522 00:51:42,630 --> 00:51:40,960 that has a very definite uh practical 1523 00:51:45,030 --> 00:51:42,640 esoteric dimension 1524 00:51:46,870 --> 00:51:45,040 um the rosicrucian fellowship teaches a 1525 00:51:48,790 --> 00:51:46,880 lot of astrology that's one of their 1526 00:51:50,950 --> 00:51:48,800 main focus astrology and a kind of kind 1527 00:51:54,390 --> 00:51:50,960 of christian esoteric philosophy 1528 00:51:55,190 --> 00:51:54,400 and the let's see the other one is the 1529 00:51:57,829 --> 00:51:55,200 um 1530 00:52:00,870 --> 00:51:57,839 societal sort of crucial in america 1531 00:52:02,470 --> 00:52:00,880 which um is not not the same the long 1532 00:52:04,470 --> 00:52:02,480 complicated story there but then they 1533 00:52:06,950 --> 00:52:04,480 teach a really comprehensive 1534 00:52:08,630 --> 00:52:06,960 system of you know esoteric and occult 1535 00:52:09,910 --> 00:52:08,640 philosophy and practice 1536 00:52:10,870 --> 00:52:09,920 you do a lot of meditating and things 1537 00:52:12,870 --> 00:52:10,880 like that 1538 00:52:14,630 --> 00:52:12,880 and 1539 00:52:15,829 --> 00:52:14,640 internal probability you're getting 1540 00:52:18,230 --> 00:52:15,839 something you're getting something more 1541 00:52:19,670 --> 00:52:18,240 than just history okay and and to to to 1542 00:52:22,390 --> 00:52:19,680 what purpose at least for myself i know 1543 00:52:23,910 --> 00:52:22,400 that the major claim behind freemasonry 1544 00:52:28,150 --> 00:52:23,920 is making good men better 1545 00:52:33,750 --> 00:52:31,190 and even for the the the druidic orders 1546 00:52:34,870 --> 00:52:33,760 uh i'm assuming it it's very 1547 00:52:36,950 --> 00:52:34,880 um 1548 00:52:38,390 --> 00:52:36,960 really earth connecting in in terms of 1549 00:52:41,190 --> 00:52:38,400 the lessons 1550 00:52:42,790 --> 00:52:41,200 yeah the the idea of the idea of druidry 1551 00:52:44,470 --> 00:52:42,800 the idea of drawdry is basically i mean 1552 00:52:47,109 --> 00:52:44,480 again and again ask three druids get 1553 00:52:48,710 --> 00:52:47,119 five answers we are not um orthodoxy is 1554 00:52:49,750 --> 00:52:48,720 not the way we do things 1555 00:52:51,750 --> 00:52:49,760 um 1556 00:52:53,670 --> 00:52:51,760 and so you know but 1557 00:52:55,349 --> 00:52:53,680 yeah the the thing about the 1558 00:52:58,069 --> 00:52:55,359 one of the core ideas behind druidry is 1559 00:53:00,150 --> 00:52:58,079 simply that um human beings think 1560 00:53:01,670 --> 00:53:00,160 they're separate from nature human human 1561 00:53:03,030 --> 00:53:01,680 beings think that there are many human 1562 00:53:04,549 --> 00:53:03,040 beings think that they're not part of 1563 00:53:07,109 --> 00:53:04,559 the natural world that we're somehow 1564 00:53:09,190 --> 00:53:07,119 outside it and when we try to pretend 1565 00:53:12,390 --> 00:53:09,200 that even of ourselves we're first we're 1566 00:53:14,309 --> 00:53:12,400 a wrong and be a little crazy and so 1567 00:53:15,670 --> 00:53:14,319 a lot of what druidry is about is 1568 00:53:17,430 --> 00:53:15,680 getting in touch with nature and 1569 00:53:18,870 --> 00:53:17,440 recognizing that human nature is part of 1570 00:53:20,150 --> 00:53:18,880 nature 1571 00:53:21,589 --> 00:53:20,160 um 1572 00:53:24,630 --> 00:53:21,599 it's 1573 00:53:25,910 --> 00:53:24,640 ways because so many people are focused 1574 00:53:28,710 --> 00:53:25,920 on the idea of 1575 00:53:30,309 --> 00:53:28,720 you know becoming better by hacking off 1576 00:53:31,910 --> 00:53:30,319 portions of themselves there's this idea 1577 00:53:33,910 --> 00:53:31,920 of this puritan idea that we have 1578 00:53:37,589 --> 00:53:33,920 especially in the united states given 1579 00:53:40,870 --> 00:53:37,599 our our puritan ancestry that um the way 1580 00:53:42,390 --> 00:53:40,880 you become good is to find the bad thing 1581 00:53:43,829 --> 00:53:42,400 and to get rid of it and that makes you 1582 00:53:46,230 --> 00:53:43,839 good we apply it to everything in 1583 00:53:49,349 --> 00:53:46,240 america watch the way people talk about 1584 00:53:51,990 --> 00:53:49,359 food it's all what is the bad food is it 1585 00:53:54,710 --> 00:53:52,000 sugar is it cholesterol is it what is it 1586 00:53:57,829 --> 00:53:54,720 lectins are now the latest fat um you 1587 00:53:59,430 --> 00:53:57,839 find the bad food the devil of the food 1588 00:54:00,950 --> 00:53:59,440 and you you banish it from your life and 1589 00:54:02,790 --> 00:54:00,960 that makes you good 1590 00:54:04,630 --> 00:54:02,800 um back in victorian times of course it 1591 00:54:06,069 --> 00:54:04,640 was sex you 1592 00:54:09,430 --> 00:54:06,079 get rid of sex or pretend to get rid of 1593 00:54:10,790 --> 00:54:09,440 sex more likely and that makes you good 1594 00:54:12,150 --> 00:54:10,800 druidry 1595 00:54:13,910 --> 00:54:12,160 looks at goodness as wholeness and 1596 00:54:16,069 --> 00:54:13,920 balance not as not as some kind of 1597 00:54:18,309 --> 00:54:16,079 amputation you know are you going to 1598 00:54:21,190 --> 00:54:18,319 have sex of course but you do it in a 1599 00:54:23,109 --> 00:54:21,200 balanced way you do it in in a way that 1600 00:54:24,630 --> 00:54:23,119 is respectful and to everyone involved 1601 00:54:26,230 --> 00:54:24,640 it doesn't involve breaking promises or 1602 00:54:27,829 --> 00:54:26,240 any this kind of nonsense 1603 00:54:30,470 --> 00:54:27,839 um 1604 00:54:32,390 --> 00:54:30,480 the druid diet we make jokes about this 1605 00:54:34,470 --> 00:54:32,400 sometimes the druid diet consists of 1606 00:54:36,870 --> 00:54:34,480 eating what makes your body feel healthy 1607 00:54:38,390 --> 00:54:36,880 whether or not it's what some some guy 1608 00:54:39,750 --> 00:54:38,400 in a white live coat claims he want to 1609 00:54:41,990 --> 00:54:39,760 eat 1610 00:54:42,870 --> 00:54:42,000 um so along along that line of thinking 1611 00:54:44,790 --> 00:54:42,880 and i'm just going to give you a 1612 00:54:45,829 --> 00:54:44,800 hypothetical here and again please do 1613 00:54:47,829 --> 00:54:45,839 not take offense by this because i 1614 00:54:50,230 --> 00:54:47,839 always take things right to the extreme 1615 00:54:53,030 --> 00:54:50,240 the the biology okay 1616 00:54:55,670 --> 00:54:53,040 so by that not by that and i understand 1617 00:54:57,030 --> 00:54:55,680 probably splitting hairs here uh by that 1618 00:54:59,030 --> 00:54:57,040 logic 1619 00:55:01,750 --> 00:54:59,040 and my line of thinking is okay if let's 1620 00:55:03,190 --> 00:55:01,760 say uh

01:01:58,630 --> 01:01:56,400 heartbeats in their life or something 1826 01:01:59,750 --> 01:01:58,640 yeah exactly yeah exactly and very 1827 01:02:01,190 --> 01:01:59,760 likely 1828 01:02:02,549 --> 01:02:01,200 you know they have the same amount of 1829 01:02:04,390 --> 01:02:02,559 experience it's just differently 1830 01:02:07,430 --> 01:02:04,400 arranged if you're a mouse 1831 01:02:09,030 --> 01:02:07,440 day and night are these immense long 1832 01:02:10,230 --> 01:02:09,040 cycles 1833 01:02:11,990 --> 01:02:10,240 if you're an elephant they move kind of 1834 01:02:14,390 --> 01:02:12,000 quickly if you're a tortoise there's a 1835 01:02:15,510 --> 01:02:14,400 blurring past 1836 01:02:18,390 --> 01:02:15,520 what what are 1837 01:02:20,630 --> 01:02:18,400 because i know certain um 1838 01:02:22,150 --> 01:02:20,640 essentially mainstream satanism 1839 01:02:23,670 --> 01:02:22,160 from what i can understand it and they 1840 01:02:25,750 --> 01:02:23,680 don't well and here hear me out here at 1841 01:02:27,670 --> 01:02:25,760 least from my understanding and again 1842 01:02:29,349 --> 01:02:27,680 so mainstream satanism does not actually 1843 01:02:31,510 --> 01:02:29,359 they're they're called satanists yet 1844 01:02:33,990 --> 01:02:31,520 they don't actually worship satan so the 1845 01:02:35,510 --> 01:02:34,000 the flaming you know fire and the 1846 01:02:37,349 --> 01:02:35,520 picture of the dark lord may his eternal 1847 01:02:39,109 --> 01:02:37,359 fires burn forever 1848 01:02:41,910 --> 01:02:39,119 um 1849 01:02:44,630 --> 01:02:41,920 they are more along the lines of 1850 01:02:46,549 --> 01:02:44,640 do whatever you need to do 1851 01:02:49,349 --> 01:02:46,559 uh but like as long as you're hurting 1852 01:02:51,990 --> 01:02:49,359 anybody type of thing okay it depends on 1853 01:02:52,870 --> 01:02:52,000 your satanist true okay 1854 01:02:54,549 --> 01:02:52,880 um 1855 01:02:56,549 --> 01:02:54,559 these days you have traditional 1856 01:02:58,150 --> 01:02:56,559 satanists who basically take 1857 01:03:00,069 --> 01:02:58,160 christianity and stand it on their heads 1858 01:03:02,470 --> 01:03:00,079 and they do worship worship the devil 1859 01:03:04,470 --> 01:03:02,480 they who they consider as the the god of 1860 01:03:06,470 --> 01:03:04,480 freedom and liberation and things like 1861 01:03:07,750 --> 01:03:06,480 that okay they're one group they're 1862 01:03:08,950 --> 01:03:07,760 really having they're really having a 1863 01:03:10,950 --> 01:03:08,960 hard time these days by the way and 1864 01:03:13,109 --> 01:03:10,960 that's largely because of vatican ii 1865 01:03:14,789 --> 01:03:13,119 um i mean most these are the people who 1866 01:03:20,390 --> 01:03:14,799 do the black mass right 1867 01:03:24,150 --> 01:03:22,230 how can you satirize something how can 1868 01:03:25,829 --> 01:03:24,160 you satirize a guitar mass you know in 1869 01:03:27,990 --> 01:03:25,839 any way that it doesn't already satirize 1870 01:03:31,190 --> 01:03:28,000 itself so traditional satanism is in 1871 01:03:33,109 --> 01:03:31,200 kind of a bad way you have the satanism 1872 01:03:36,390 --> 01:03:33,119 allah um 1873 01:03:38,230 --> 01:03:36,400 anton zandor lavey whose actual name was 1874 01:03:39,349 --> 01:03:38,240 howard stanton levy 1875 01:03:40,230 --> 01:03:39,359 um 1876 01:03:41,589 --> 01:03:40,240 and 1877 01:03:42,829 --> 01:03:41,599 who um 1878 01:03:43,910 --> 01:03:42,839 discovered the 1879 01:03:45,750 --> 01:03:43,920 the um 1880 01:03:48,390 --> 01:03:45,760 they discovered the remarkable fact that 1881 01:03:50,150 --> 01:03:48,400 posing as a big bad evil satanist would 1882 01:03:51,670 --> 01:03:50,160 get jane mansfield to take off her 1883 01:03:53,750 --> 01:03:51,680 clothes in your living room 1884 01:03:56,630 --> 01:03:53,760 you know that strong men well that must 1885 01:03:58,710 --> 01:03:56,640 strong men have succumbed too much lost 1886 01:04:00,150 --> 01:03:58,720 temptation so essentially he was heavy 1887 01:04:01,750 --> 01:04:00,160 metal before heavy metal was actually 1888 01:04:02,870 --> 01:04:01,760 figured this out and said if we do this 1889 01:04:03,990 --> 01:04:02,880 in our show 1890 01:04:05,109 --> 01:04:04,000 the parents will be pissed off but the 1891 01:04:06,549 --> 01:04:05,119 kids will love it because the parents 1892 01:04:08,470 --> 01:04:06,559 hate it 1893 01:04:10,069 --> 01:04:08,480 yeah exactly the thing is he he was he 1894 01:04:11,510 --> 01:04:10,079 was there long beach the thing is that 1895 01:04:12,390 --> 01:04:11,520 whole thing has been going on for a very 1896 01:04:13,910 --> 01:04:12,400 long time if you look through the 1897 01:04:16,549 --> 01:04:13,920 history of religion whatever the hot new 1898 01:04:17,750 --> 01:04:16,559 religion is it's got to shock your mom 1899 01:04:19,109 --> 01:04:17,760 if it doesn't shock you or that's one of 1900 01:04:21,109 --> 01:04:19,119 the reasons wicca is in such trouble 1901 01:04:23,029 --> 01:04:21,119 these days has become too too normal too 1902 01:04:25,029 --> 01:04:23,039 mainstream it's lost its mom shocking 1903 01:04:27,750 --> 01:04:25,039 potential well because moms are wiccan 1904 01:04:29,430 --> 01:04:27,760 now so exactly there and you know 1905 01:04:31,349 --> 01:04:29,440 exactly how dull so of course all the 1906 01:04:33,670 --> 01:04:31,359 kids are going to do something else now 1907 01:04:37,029 --> 01:04:33,680 but so you have this the the anton 1908 01:04:39,670 --> 01:04:37,039 sandor levy thing which is basically um 1909 01:04:41,349 --> 01:04:39,680 uh anne rand's objectivism 1910 01:04:43,430 --> 01:04:41,359 dressed up in a devil suit most of his 1911 01:04:45,109 --> 01:04:43,440 satanic bible is ripped off from from 1912 01:04:46,950 --> 01:04:45,119 randy and objectivism 1913 01:04:50,549 --> 01:04:46,960 which 1914 01:04:52,630 --> 01:04:50,559 then you have the people nowadays who 1915 01:04:55,910 --> 01:04:52,640 are who are doing the temple of satan 1916 01:04:57,750 --> 01:04:55,920 thing who are actually mostly atheists 1917 01:04:59,670 --> 01:04:57,760 and are doing it to try to in in this 1918 01:05:02,230 --> 01:04:59,680 country at least to make fun of the 1919 01:05:04,230 --> 01:05:02,240 religious right and to try to take all 1920 01:05:05,910 --> 01:05:04,240 of these various laws intended for the 1921 01:05:09,670 --> 01:05:05,920 for the defense of traditional 1922 01:05:12,870 --> 01:05:09,680 christianity and because they can't as a 1923 01:05:14,150 --> 01:05:12,880 religious group they can't be excluded 1924 01:05:16,150 --> 01:05:14,160 you know these are the people who are 1925 01:05:18,470 --> 01:05:16,160 doing who are like getting statues of 1926 01:05:19,910 --> 01:05:18,480 the devil reading to a pair of children 1927 01:05:22,470 --> 01:05:19,920 and trying to get them put on courthouse 1928 01:05:23,829 --> 01:05:22,480 lawns and so on and so on so it's the 1929 01:05:26,069 --> 01:05:23,839 equivalent and 1930 01:05:27,510 --> 01:05:26,079 the kids are like the the people who are 1931 01:05:28,950 --> 01:05:27,520 that type of satanist are the ones that 1932 01:05:31,349 --> 01:05:28,960 are on 4chan 1933 01:05:33,670 --> 01:05:31,359 and the people who worship the flying 1934 01:05:36,309 --> 01:05:33,680 spaghetti monster are on 1935 01:05:37,990 --> 01:05:36,319 uh what buzzfeed

unto themselves 1939 01:05:44,870 --> 01:05:43,039 i've actually ended up in conversations 1940 01:05:46,630 --> 01:05:44,880 with some of them as a result of my 1941 01:05:49,349 --> 01:05:46,640 blogs which which attracted the trickle 1942 01:05:50,630 --> 01:05:49,359 of them and that's that is its own 1943 01:05:52,150 --> 01:05:50,640 planet 1944 01:05:53,589 --> 01:05:52,160 and a very

specific policies embraced 2259 01:16:29,350 --> 01:16:26,880 by both parties 2260 01:16:30,950 --> 01:16:29,360 and it has literally literally it has 2261 01:16:33,990 --> 01:16:30,960 driven 2262 01:16:36,550 --> 01:16:34,000 half the country into destitution and no 2263 01:16:39,030 --> 01:16:36,560 politician was willing to say maybe we 2264 01:16:41,030 --> 01:16:39,040 should change those

--> 01:16:57,840 now the fact that he was lying 2274 01:17:01,350 --> 01:16:59,440 is another matter but the fact is he was 2275 01:17:02,550 --> 01:17:01,360 willing to talk about it that's why he 2276 01:17:03,750 --> 01:17:02,560 won 2277 01:17:06,070 --> 01:17:03,760 now that he's one he doesn't actually 2278 01:17:07,110 --> 01:17:06,080 have to play the line anymore it's you 2279

doesn't work it's a complete total 2327 01:18:41,430 --> 01:18:39,360 stinking wreaking smoldering disaster 2328 01:18:42,950 --> 01:18:41,440 we spend more money and get worse health 2329 01:18:44,550 --> 01:18:42,960 care than any other nation in the 2330 01:18:46,070 --> 01:18:44,560 industrial world 2331 01:18:48,630 --> 01:18:46,080 so you know if you want to talk about 2332

01:18:57,030 --> 01:18:55,120 qualify that because one of the things 2336 01:18:58,550 --> 01:18:57,040 that we saw with with the obamacare 2337 01:18:59,910 --> 01:18:58,560 fiasco is that it's possible to take the 2338 01:19:01,910 --> 01:18:59,920 worst health care system in the world 2339 01:19:03,189 --> 01:19:01,920 and actually make it worse 2340 01:19:04,950 --> 01:19:03,199 well 2341 01:19:06,310 --> 01:19:04,960 okay he he tried to fix a broken system 2342 01:19:10,709 --> 01:19:06,320 with a 2343 01:19:11,830 --> 01:19:10,719 republican um house that was 2344 01:19:12,790 --> 01:19:11,840 essentially 2345 01:19:20,790 --> 01:19:12,800 he 2346 01:19:22,470 --> 01:19:20,800 passed it that it had that 2347 01:19:25,590 --> 01:19:22,480 um and because people were pointing out 2348 01:19:26,790 --> 01:19:25,600 the obvious disasters no it was it was a 2349 01:19:28,709 --> 01:19:26,800 what what you what you have to 2350 01:19:30,709 --> 01:19:28,719 understand about obamacare is that it's 2351 01:19:32,390 --> 01:19:30,719 a full employment bill for the medical 2352 01:19:35,270 --> 01:19:32,400 industry it's corporate welfare yeah 2353 01:19:36,790 --> 01:19:35,280 what is basically people are because 2354 01:19:38,149 --> 01:19:36,800 what you're passing is a law that says 2355 01:19:40,149 --> 01:19:38,159 okay you can't afford health insurance 2356 01:19:41,669 --> 01:19:40,159 that's fine you have to buy it anyway 2357 01:19:43,030 --> 01:19:41,679 under force of law 2358 01:19:44,870 --> 01:19:43,040 we have to do the same thing with with

2362 01:19:52,229 --> 01:19:50,239 that going to cost you more than your 2363 01:19:54,149 --> 01:19:52,239 house payment 2364 01:19:55,750 --> 01:19:54,159 because that's what when that's what 2365 01:19:57,430 --> 01:19:55,760 that's what it costs 2366 01:19:58,630 --> 01:19:57,440 is here i've seen people with with i've 2367 01:19:59,990 --> 01:19:58,640 seen people with 2368 01:20:01,590 --> 01:20:00,000 car insurance that's close to a thousand 2369 01:20:04,310 --> 01:20:01,600 dollars a month of course obviously 2370 01:20:06,149 --> 01:20:04,320 they've had multiple lies 2371 01:20:08,550 --> 01:20:06,159 multiple dui is like nobody's willing to 2372 01:20:11,430 --> 01:20:08,560 insure them um but okay but if you're 2373 01:20:13,430 --> 01:20:11,440 talking about like when he passed it yes 2374 01:20:15,110 --> 01:20:13,440 but in terms like he had difficulty with 2375 01:20:16,950 --> 01:20:15,120 anything else or getting the 2376 01:20:19,030 --> 01:20:16,960 uh like getting the support that he 2377 01:20:21,270 --> 01:20:19,040 needed even further down the line even 2378 01:20:23,990 --> 01:20:21,280 when he had a majority in both houses he 2379 01:20:26,790 --> 01:20:24,000 was the only president that was a lame 2380 01:20:28,550 --> 01:20:26,800 like close to a lame duck president with 2381 01:20:29,430 --> 01:20:28,560 you know with with controlling both 2382 01:20:30,870 --> 01:20:29,440 houses 2383 01:20:32,470 --> 01:20:30,880 it's ridiculous 2384 01:20:34,390 --> 01:20:32,480 you know it's it's really simple the 2385 01:20:36,310 --> 01:20:34,400 thing is barack obama is a brilliant is 2386 01:20:38,870 --> 01:20:36,320 an incredibly good campaigner 2387 01:20:40,790 --> 01:20:38,880 and an incompetent executive 2388 01:20:42,709 --> 01:20:40,800 he is one of the he is one of the real 2389 01:20:45,430 --> 01:20:42,719 political geniuses of our time in terms 2390 01:20:48,630 --> 01:20:45,440 of getting elected and the especially i 2391 01:20:51,110 --> 01:20:48,640 mean his his 2008 campaign hope change 2392 01:20:54,470 --> 01:20:51,120 yes we can totally empty 2393 01:20:56,310 --> 01:20:54,480 totally cynical incredibly brilliant 2394 01:20:58,310 --> 01:20:56,320 the man could win any election going but 2395 01:21:01,430 --> 01:20:58,320 he has no idea how to run a country 2396 01:21:04,070 --> 01:21:01,440 and so he basically just went kind of uh 2397 01:21:05,110 --> 01:21:04,080 dead in the water once he was in office 2398 01:21:07,270 --> 01:21:05,120 but 2399 01:21:09,270 --> 01:21:07,280 you know um 2400 01:21:11,189 --> 01:21:09,280 i don't know i thought the comment that 2401 01:21:13,350 --> 01:21:11,199 i made back at the time 2402 01:21:14,870 --> 01:21:13,360 um was that you know we were facing in 2403 01:21:17,110 --> 01:21:14,880 america a choice between which of the 2404 01:21:18,630 --> 01:21:17,120 two most detested people in american 2405 01:21:20,070 --> 01:21:18,640 public life 2406 01:21:22,070 --> 01:21:20,080 was going to occupy the white house for 2407 01:21:23,669 --> 01:21:22,080 the next four years 2408 01:21:25,750 --> 01:21:23,679 and 2409 01:21:28,470 --> 01:21:25,760 they're both detested for very good 2410 01:21:30,390 --> 01:21:28,480 reasons 2411 01:21:32,229 --> 01:21:30,400 there were i mean and this is this is 2412 01:21:35,030 --> 01:21:32,239 perhaps the great shame of our political 2413 01:21:36,790 --> 01:21:35,040 system because there were easily tens of 2414 01:21:38,229 --> 01:21:36,800 thousands of people 2415 01:21:39,430 --> 01:21:38,239 who were really qualified to be 2416 01:21:44,550 --> 01:21:39,440 president none of them were on the 2417 01:21:47,270 --> 01:21:45,350 and 2418 01:21:48,870 --> 01:21:47,280 the both parties as far as their 2419 01:21:49,910 --> 01:21:48,880 nomination but they're their nomination 2420 01:21:50,950 --> 01:21:49,920 process 2421 01:21:52,310 --> 01:21:50,960 uh 2422 01:21:54,470 --> 01:21:52,320 essentially it's they try and make it 2423 01:21:57,030 --> 01:21:54,480 look as open as they possibly want to 2424 01:21:58,070 --> 01:21:57,040 and but it's not yeah like for free and 2425 01:22:00,709 --> 01:21:58,080 for anybody out here who's listening to 2426 01:22:02,149 --> 01:22:00,719 this if you knew me you would you would 2427 01:22:03,669 -->

01:22:12,960 any really into the third parties i 2434 01:22:15,350 --> 01:22:13,840 think there was one libertarian 2435 01:22:17,189 --> 01:22:15,360 candidate who's on joe rogan experience 2436 01:22:19,110 --> 01:22:17,199 who seemed fairly intelligent 2437 01:22:20,310 --> 01:22:19,120 uh who got close to at least almost 2438 01:22:22,070 --> 01:22:20,320 becoming what we would call here in 2439 01:22:24,470 --> 01:22:22,080 canada official party status but you 2440 01:22:25,990 --> 01:22:24,480 know the the media doesn't want to get 2441 01:22:27,430 --> 01:22:26,000 involved in that because 2442 01:22:28,709 --> 01:22:27,440 the party is essentially like even if 2443 01:22:30,229 --> 01:22:28,719 they're going to 2444 01:22:31,910 --> 01:22:30,239 uh talk trash 2445 01:22:34,149 --> 01:22:31,920 and try and fight as much in front of 2446 01:22:36,550 --> 01:22:34,159 the camera it's all a [\h__\h] show it's 2447 01:22:37,750 --> 01:22:36,560 all a [\h__\h] show for you people

the ones who are [\h__\h] crawling 2451 01:22:44,229 --> 01:22:43,040 in the in the muck and the dirt and the 2452 01:22:45,189 --> 01:22:44,239 [\h__\h] and having to deal with their 2453 01:22:47,189 --> 01:22:45,199 decisions and they're the ones 2454 01:22:49,669 --> 01:22:47,199 collecting that that you know that 2455 01:22:51,430 --> 01:22:49,679 lobbyist money so yeah they're going to 2456 01:22:52,950 --> 01:22:51,440 make a good show of it so you guys stay 2457 01:22:55,350 --> 01:22:52,960 divided 2458 01:22:57,270 --> 01:22:55,360 and and fight amongst yourselves because 2459 01:23:00,310 --> 01:22:57,280 because if you were to realize 2460 01:23:02,229 --> 01:23:00,320 how how [\h__\h] up things are in dc and 2461 01:23:04,229 --> 01:23:02,239 how badly you guys have been [\h__\h] from 2462 01:23:05,669 --> 01:23:04,239 both parties like the democrats have no 2463 01:23:06,470 --> 01:23:05,679 balls and the republicans are [\h__\h] 2464 01:23:08,149 --> 01:23:06,480 evil 2465 01:23:09,590 --> 01:23:08,159 that's that's basically it it's party 2466 01:23:11,430 --> 01:23:09,600 over country i'm sorry you're an 2467 01:23:13,189 --> 01:23:11,440 american no no that support your [\h__\h] 2468 01:23:15,750 --> 01:23:13,199 country the way that i the way that i've 2469 01:23:17,910 --> 01:23:15,760 described it is that on any point of 2470 01:23:18,950 --> 01:23:17,920 view there's a there is a democratic and 2471 01:23:20,950 --> 01:23:18,960 a republican or a liberal or 2472 01:23:22,629 --> 01:23:20,960 conservative viewpoint and the liberal 2473 01:23:23,910 --> 01:23:22,639 viewpoint is well-meaning and 2474 01:23:25,430 --> 01:23:23,920 ineffectual 2475 01:23:27,110 --> 01:23:25,440 and the conservative viewpoint is 2476 01:23:29,510 --> 01:23:27,120 practicable and evil 2477 01:23:31,430 --> 01:23:29,520 and prac like well practical towards 2478 01:23:33,110 --> 01:23:31,440 it's it's 2479 01:23:34,790 --> 01:23:33,120 like toward its actual goal it can 2480 01:23:37,030 --> 01:23:34,800 actually be put into place it will 2481 01:23:39,270 --> 01:23:37,040 actually it won't necessarily fulfill 2482 01:23:40,550 --> 01:23:39,280 its promises but it will you know it can 2483 01:23:42,229 --> 01:23:40,560 be done 2484 01:23:44,950 --> 01:23:42,239 whereas typically 2485 01:23:47,590 --> 01:23:44,960 the democrats things if it can be made 2486 01:23:49,990 --> 01:23:47,600 to function at all it doesn't function 2487 01:23:51,189 --> 01:23:50,000 for long as as again obamacare is 2488 01:23:53,110 --> 01:23:51,199 demonstrating 2489 01:23:58,790 --> 01:23:53,120 but 2490 01:23:59,990 --> 01:23:58,800 now again i'm i'm i'm more i i'm 2491 01:24:01,830 --> 01:24:00,000 i'm very cynical when it comes to 2492 01:24:04,709 --> 01:24:01,840 politics and politicians give you a good 2493 01:24:06,709 --> 01:24:04,719 statement give me like give me a 2494 01:24:08,310 --> 01:24:06,719 like give me somebody who actually does 2495 01:24:09,910 --> 01:24:08,320 what they say they're going to do and 2496 01:24:11,590 --> 01:24:09,920 actually does it for their constituents 2497 01:24:13,830 --> 01:24:11,600 and cares about the country and cares 2498 01:24:15,590 --> 01:24:13,840 about the goddamn constitution which is 2499 01:24:18,790 --> 01:24:15,600 a believe it or not was written by 2500 01:24:20,629 --> 01:24:18,800 freemasons yes are of course it was so 2501 01:24:22,470 --> 01:24:20,639 the idea of equality that that's masonic 2502 01:24:23,270 --> 01:24:22,480 ideal um 2503 01:24:24,390 --> 01:24:23,280 but 2504 01:24:26,790 --> 01:24:24,400 when it comes to like politics in 2505 01:24:28,830 --> 01:24:26,800 general it it is it's it's 2506 01:24:31,350 --> 01:24:28,840 something of division and it just angers 2507 01:24:33,510 --> 01:24:31,360 me no in a 2508 01:24:34,950 --> 01:24:33,520 it anchors me in a 2509 01:24:37,030 --> 01:24:34,960 well i don't want to have to like you 2510 01:24:39,030 --> 01:24:37,040 know like screw you all um i'm gonna you 2511 01:24:40,070 --> 01:24:39,040 know like if i vote in canadian 2512

01:25:35,280 like he essentially he went down to the 2544 01:25:37,750 --> 01:25:36,800 states took all the worst from the tea 2545 01:25:39,510 --> 01:25:37,760 party 2546 01:25:40,950 --> 01:25:39,520 brought it up here to canada 2547 01:25:41,830 --> 01:25:40,960 and essentially said this is what we're 2548 01:25:43,189 --> 01:25:41,840 going to do 2549 01:25:44,950 --> 01:25:43,199

because i have i 2730 01:32:03,189 --> 01:32:01,120 i mentioned earlier earlier in the show 2731 01:32:04,629 --> 01:32:03,199 the um 2732 01:32:06,070 --> 01:32:04,639 that i was doing a fiction

fun to play a role in that but i'm 2742 01:32:25,430 --> 01:32:23,520 i'm not really sure how that would 2743 01:32:26,310 --> 01:32:25,440 happen 2744 01:32:27,750 --> 01:32:26,320 you know 2745

materialism that were the the two 2818 01:34:46,950 --> 01:34:43,920 publicly acceptable 2819 01:34:49,430 --> 01:34:46,960 um ideologies at the time and there was 2820 01:34:50,950 --> 01:34:49,440 there was a a mildly crazy welshman um 2821 01:34:52,870 --> 01:34:50,960 his actual name was edward williams but 2822 01:34:55,510 --> 01:34:52,880 he went to buy the bardic name yolo 2823 01:34:57,830 --> 01:34:55,520 morgana in yolo as we can call him 2824 01:35:00,149 --> 01:34:57,840 was he was brilliant 2825 01:35:02,870 --> 01:35:00,159 he was probably the best scholar of 2826 01:35:04,950 --> 01:35:02,880 medieval welsh in his life in his time 2827 01:35:07,510 --> 01:35:04,960 he was also one of the most brilliant 2828 01:35:09,590 --> 01:35:07,520 forgers of medieval welsh poetry in his 2829 01:35:11,189 --> 01:35:09,600 time you have to be good he he literally 2830 01:35:12,950 --> 01:35:11,199 some of his fate some mistakes were not 2831 01:35:16,229 --> 01:35:12,960 discovered until the 1950s he was that 2832 01:35:19,030 --> 01:35:16,239 good but this guy 2833 01:35:21,110 --> 01:35:19,040 he was he was a heavy-duty opium addict 2834 01:35:22,709 --> 01:35:21,120 um lawtonum which was opium in chicago 2835 01:35:24,470 --> 01:35:22,719 cheap alcohol was legal in britain at 2836 01:35:26,149 --> 01:35:24,480 that time and that's the dream of it 2837 01:35:27,270 --> 01:35:26,159 it's the dream yeah 2838 01:35:32,790 --> 01:35:27,280 yeah 2839 01:35:34,470 --> 01:35:32,800 he he he was you know he had a drug 2840 01:35:37,030 --> 01:35:34,480 habit he had 2841 01:35:38,950 --> 01:35:37,040 his head was packed full of welsh 2842 01:35:40,550 --> 01:35:38,960 mythology and wealth po welsh poetry he 2843 01:35:42,390 --> 01:35:40,560 became convinced that 2844 01:35:44,149 --> 01:35:42,400 you know the the lessons in welsh poetry 2845 01:35:46,790 --> 01:35:44,159 that he received from some old guys back 2846 01:35:49,430 --> 01:35:46,800 in back in glen morgan had initiated him 2847 01:35:51,110 --> 01:35:49,440 into these these original secrets of the 2848 01:35:53,669 --> 01:35:51,120 birds passed down 2849 01:35:54,790 --> 01:35:53,679 from the times of the ancient druids and 2850 01:35:56,229 --> 01:35:54,800 there were a lot of people who were 2851 01:35:58,390 --> 01:35:56,239 interested he was kind of you know the 2852 01:36:00,629 --> 01:35:58,400 way gerald gardner sort of manufactured 2853 01:36:02,470 --> 01:36:00,639 wicca in in the 1940s and then 2854 01:36:04,550 --> 01:36:02,480 mass-marketed all over the place um 2855 01:36:07,990 --> 01:36:04,560 thereafter um yolo morgan was kind of 2856 01:36:10,790 --> 01:36:08,000 the gerald gardner of the 1790s and he 2857 01:36:12,629 --> 01:36:10,800 founded the various druid groups in 2858 01:36:15,270 --> 01:36:12,639 britain and and in the united are 2859 01:36:17,669 --> 01:36:15,280 actually in in um in britain and wales 2860 01:36:19,270 --> 01:36:17,679 in england wales and then later after 2861 01:36:21,510 --> 01:36:19,280 his time something the number one start 2862 01:36:23,430 --> 01:36:21,520 in the us as well but 2863 01:36:25,110 --> 01:36:23,440 one of the things that he passed on was 2864 01:36:27,510 --> 01:36:25,120 this alphabet looks kind of like runes 2865 01:36:29,830 --> 01:36:27,520 it's all it's designed to be carved or 2866 01:36:30,950 --> 01:36:29,840 scratched into wood or stone so it's 2867 01:36:32,870 --> 01:36:30,960 straight lines 2868 01:36:35,669 --> 01:36:32,880 and so on it's called the cauldron 2869 01:36:38,390 --> 01:36:35,679 in the usual format it's 24 letters and 2870 01:36:40,310 --> 01:36:38,400 it it was very popular in the druid 2871 01:36:43,030 --> 01:36:40,320 scene of the first half of the 19th 2872 01:36:45,510 --> 01:36:43,040 century and then just kind of faded out 2873 01:36:47,750 --> 01:36:45,520 and people lost track of it and nobody 2874 01:36:49,270 --> 01:36:47,760 the thing is as with the runes as with 2875 01:36:51,510 --> 01:36:49,280 some of the other old alphabets like the 2876 01:36:53,510 --> 01:36:51,520 hebrew alphabet for example 2877 01:36:54,629 --> 01:36:53,520 it's not just an alphabet each letter 2878 01:36:57,270 --> 01:36:54,639 you know each of these letters has 2879 01:36:58,790 --> 01:36:57,280 symbolism it has meaning you can use it 2880 01:37:00,310 --> 01:36:58,800 for cert for a whole range of purposes 2881 01:37:02,390 --> 01:37:00,320 you can use it as a divinatory oracle 2882 01:37:04,709 --> 01:37:02,400 the way people do rune readings now 2883 01:37:06,950 --> 01:37:04,719 but the key to that what the letters 2884 01:37:09,270 --> 01:37:06,960 meant 2885 01:37:12,070 --> 01:37:09,280 kind of got misplaced 2886 01:37:14,470 --> 01:37:12,080 and so starting when when somebody 2887 01:37:16,470 --> 01:37:14,480 noticed the 2888 01:37:19,350 --> 01:37:16,480 when because yolo because it turned out 2889 01:37:20,870 --> 01:37:19,360 he was forger because he'd fraudulently 2890 01:37:23,430 --> 01:37:20,880 written a whole bunch of poetry and 2891 01:37:25,750 --> 01:37:23,440 other things that was not in india 2892 01:37:27,910 --> 01:37:25,760 marketed as the works of authentic welsh 2893 01:37:29,990 --> 01:37:27,920 bards in the middle ages nobody wanted 2894 01:37:31,990 --> 01:37:30,000 to talk about him for a long time 2895 01:37:33,910 --> 01:37:32,000 and so was i think in the 1970s that 2896 01:37:35,910 --> 01:37:33,920 people started really poking around his 2897 01:37:38,149 --> 01:37:35,920 legacy and the colburn alphabet and 2898 01:37:39,990 --> 01:37:38,159 these things but nobody could find 2899 01:37:41,910 --> 01:37:40,000 what the letters meant what their 2900 01:37:44,070 --> 01:37:41,920 symbolism was anything other than just 2901 01:37:47,510 --> 01:37:44,080 the bare alphabet 2902 01:37:50,709 --> 01:37:47,520 so fast forward to 2014 2903 01:37:52,790 --> 01:37:50,719 and i was i was chasing i i'd finished a 2904 01:37:54,310 --> 01:37:52,800 book on druidry i was looking for some 2905 01:37:55,590 --> 01:37:54,320 interesting puzzles i was saying okay 2906 01:37:57,189 --> 01:37:55,600 i'm going to see what i can find about 2907 01:37:58,870 --> 01:37:57,199 the colburn i was poking here and poking 2908 01:38:01,109 --> 01:37:58,880 there looking this looking in the out 2909 01:38:03,109 --> 01:38:01,119 and i finally found a tiny little 2910 01:38:05,270 --> 01:38:03,119 reference in a footnote in a book of 2911 01:38:07,510 --> 01:38:05,280 welsh grow a comparative grammar of 2912 01:38:09,590 --> 01:38:07,520 welsh published in 2913 01:38:11,189 --> 01:38:09,600 1920 i think it was there was a 2914 01:38:13,430 --> 01:38:11,199 reference to a book that i had not heard 2915 01:38:23,590 --> 01:38:13,440 of before in english a in addition and 2916 01:38:27,430 --> 01:38:26,070 that was yolo's number one um 2917 01:38:29,350 --> 01:38:27,440 you know 2918 01:38:31,669 --> 01:38:29,360 disciple basically 2919 01:38:34,310 --> 01:38:31,679 what's this book so i was able to find 2920 01:38:36,149 --> 01:38:34,320 it it was that was actually available in 2921 01:38:37,669 --> 01:38:36,159 in in google books 2922 01:38:40,229 --> 01:38:37,679 i downloaded the thing 2923 01:38:41,910 --> 01:38:40,239 started paging through it and my jaw hit 2924 01:38:44,470 --> 01:38:41,920 the keyboard because there was a nice 2925 01:38:46,629 --> 01:38:44,480 little table listing the colburn letters 2926 01:38:48,950 --> 01:38:46,639 and their their meanings their sounds 2927 01:38:51,830 --> 01:38:48,960 how they worked symbolically all of it 2928 01:38:55,270 --> 01:38:53,189 the thing that people have been looking 2929 01:38:58,790 --> 01:38:55,280 for since the 1970s was tucked away in 2930 01:39:01,270 --> 01:38:58,800 this obscure scholarly work on welsh 2931 01:39:02,709 --> 01:39:01,280 grammar from from the 14th century that 2932 01:39:04,470 --> 01:39:02,719 uh john williams of this will have 2933 01:39:06,709 --> 01:39:04,480 translated and edited and published with 2934 01:39:08,470 --> 01:39:06,719 a tiny little publishing company 2935 01:39:09,910 --> 01:39:08,480 and it was just pure blind chance that i 2936 01:39:12,229 --> 01:39:09,920 found this and so of course i went to 2937 01:39:14,070 --> 01:39:12,239 work on it and wrote a start writing the 2938 01:39:15,669 --> 01:39:14,080 book and worked out how to use the thing 2939 01:39:18,149 --> 01:39:15,679 as an oracle and all this kind of stuff 2940 01:39:19,590 --> 01:39:18,159 had a grand old time it is again it's 2941 01:39:21,030 --> 01:39:19,600 like the ruins 2942 01:39:22,470 --> 01:39:21,040 you can use it to cast readings you can 2943 01:39:24,149 --> 01:39:22,480 use it for symbolism you can use it for 2944 01:39:25,990 --> 01:39:24,159 meditation it's all kinds of all the 2945 01:39:27,270 --> 01:39:26,000 usual things that a symbolic alphabet 2946 01:39:29,990 --> 01:39:27,280 can be used for 2947 01:39:30,950 --> 01:39:30,000 and the book is um 2948 01:39:32,310 --> 01:39:30,960 it's 2949 01:39:34,870 --> 01:39:32,320 designed for the complete beginner you 2950 01:39:36,629 --> 01:39:34,880 do not have to be an initiated druid to 2951 01:39:38,310 --> 01:39:36,639 open its pages and understand 2952 01:39:40,390 --> 01:39:38,320 it's all laid out very straightforwardly 2953 01:39:42,070 --> 01:39:40,400 and i i hope we go someplace so the 2954 01:39:43,669 --> 01:39:42,080 colburn is a nice 2955 01:39:47,030 --> 01:39:43,679 elegant system 2956 01:39:49,510 --> 01:39:47,040 and as an oracle it gives good answers 2957 01:39:51,510 --> 01:39:49,520 and if you're going how would this work 2958 01:39:52,950 --> 01:39:51,520 in relation to let's say using runes or 2959 01:39:54,870 --> 01:39:52,960 casting or like 2960 01:39:57,669 --> 01:39:54,880 like casting runes or 2961 01:39:58,550 --> 01:39:57,679 um tarot cards or what have you is is it 2962 01:40:22,070 --> 01:39:58,560 a 2963 01:40:23,510 --> 01:40:22,080 one i thought i just finished when i 2964 01:40:25,669 --> 01:40:23,520 started working in the colbrand the 2965 01:40:28,709 --> 01:40:25,679 celtic golden dawn gives a complete 2966 01:40:31,109 --> 01:40:28,719 system of juridical magic which is um 2967 01:40:32,310 --> 01:40:31,119 you know which which uses the same 2968 01:40:34,870 --> 01:40:32,320 basically much of the same well 2969 01:40:36,709 --> 01:40:34,880 symbolism that yolo was working with 2970 01:40:38,070 --> 01:40:36,719 and so there's a sequel in the works 2971 01:40:40,070 --> 01:40:38,080 that will integrate the cold bring with 2972 01:40:41,350 --> 01:40:40,080 that and a whole bunch of other stuff so 2973 01:40:43,270 --> 01:40:41,360 that but that's that's a couple of years 2974 01:40:45,109 --> 01:40:43,280 off because that needs a lot of a lot of 2975 01:40:46,950 --> 01:40:45,119 further work and a lot of testing how 2976 01:40:48,709 --> 01:40:46,960 how did you how do you come up with 2977 01:40:50,149 --> 01:40:48,719 right and you're you're discovering 2978 01:40:51,430 --> 01:40:50,159 these systems and reworking them because 2979 01:40:54,470 --> 01:40:51,440 again you have 2980 01:40:56,629 --> 01:40:54,480 a vast amount and when i say vast uh 2981 01:40:58,149 --> 01:40:56,639 again when i when when we say that he 2982 01:41:01,910 --> 01:40:58,159 wrote the 2983 01:41:06,950 --> 01:41:01,920 esoteric works and magic he actually 2984 01:41:10,629 --> 01:41:08,390 yeah you know i wrote the encyclopedia i 2985 01:41:14,390 --> 01:41:10,639 wrote the encyclopedia secret societies 2986 01:41:19,510 --> 01:41:14,400 um so i see it how do i do it well yeah 2987 01:41:20,709 --> 01:41:19,520 because we we had um we had um 2988 01:41:22,550 --> 01:41:20,719 gordon white 2989 01:41:23,910 --> 01:41:22,560 and his name again he has one of those 2990 01:41:25,750 --> 01:41:23,920 names where it's like two syllables and 2991 01:41:27,750 --> 01:41:25,760 then one syllable and they're both 2992 01:41:29,350 --> 01:41:27,760 fairly like they're both fairly common 2993 01:41:31,990 --> 01:41:29,360 so always get stuck trying to remember 2994 01:41:34,149 --> 01:41:32,000 which is first and which is last uh he's 2995 01:41:36,470 --> 01:41:34,159 more of and he's from australia i'm not 2996 01:41:40,310 --> 01:41:36,480 sure if you if you know him he he uh 2997 01:41:42,950 --> 01:41:40,320 uh we haven't met okay but he 2998 01:41:45,109 --> 01:41:42,960 for him it's it's about a chaos magic to 2999 01:41:47,990 --> 01:41:45,119 try and reduce probability to try and 3000 01:41:50,229 --> 01:41:48,000 arrive at uh you know the the active 3001 01:41:52,070 --> 01:41:50,239 ingredient as we say is you know to to 3002 01:41:53,830 --> 01:41:52,080 make chance work in your favor so you 3003 01:41:56,790 --> 01:41:53,840 can get the result you want 3004 01:42:00,310 --> 01:41:56,800 is is this how all magic works or 3005 01:42:01,750 --> 01:42:00,320 is there no it's the thing is nobody 3006 01:42:03,350 --> 01:42:01,760 remember we're always talking about 3007 01:42:05,189 --> 01:42:03,360 models 3008 01:42:06,629 --> 01:42:05,199 we know that certain things have certain 3009 01:42:08,390 --> 01:42:06,639 results and we come up with various 3010 01:42:09,830 --> 01:42:08,400 theoretical models to explain why that 3011 01:42:11,109 --> 01:42:09,840 is if you're a chaos magician you're 3012 01:42:12,790 --> 01:42:11,119 probably going to come up with something 3013 01:42:14,310 --> 01:42:12,800 like gordon white's theory 3014 01:42:16,709 --> 01:42:14,320 there are many different ways to talk 3015 01:42:18,950 --> 01:42:16,719 about it and i've explored several of 3016 01:42:20,870 --> 01:42:18,960 them and i don't know you know that any 3017 01:42:23,030 --> 01:42:20,880 of them are really better than any of 3018 01:42:25,109 --> 01:42:23,040 the others it's useful to have a model 3019 01:42:28,790 --> 01:42:25,119 so you can guide your guide your actions 3020 01:42:30,070 --> 01:42:28,800 but the map is not the territory 3021 01:42:32,229 --> 01:42:30,080 what we know is that doing certain 3022 01:42:33,750 --> 01:42:32,239 things produces certain results 3023 01:42:38,149 --> 01:42:33,760 everything else 3024 01:42:40,709 --> 01:42:39,430 and 3025 01:42:42,870 --> 01:42:40,719 for 3026 01:42:46,149 --> 01:42:42,880 most systems is it words of power are we 3027 01:42:48,390 --> 01:42:46,159 talking uh signs and sigils that need to 3028 01:42:51,669 --> 01:42:48,400 be arranged in a certain way 3029 01:42:53,270 --> 01:42:51,679 how um you know or or certain uh 3030 01:42:54,790 --> 01:42:53,280 like alchemical 3031 01:42:57,189 --> 01:42:54,800 ingredients i know the idea of eye of 3032 01:42:58,950 --> 01:42:57,199 mute et cetera et cetera which you can 3033 01:43:01,350 --> 01:42:58,960 sometimes be laughed at but you know 3034 01:43:02,629 --> 01:43:01,360 there are certain um chemicals that can 3035 01:43:04,550 --> 01:43:02,639 be used or released into the air which 3036 01:43:07,430 --> 01:43:04,560 can let's say uh you know release an 3037 01:43:08,790 --> 01:43:07,440 aroma uh how do these work because when 3038 01:43:10,790 --> 01:43:08,800 i look at magic i look at it from a 3039 01:43:12,950 --> 01:43:10,800 standpoint of okay it's it's like how 3040 01:43:15,270 --> 01:43:12,960 how thor said in in the first thor movie 3041 01:43:18,149 --> 01:43:15,280 and i'm going to reference a marvel 3042 01:43:19,350 --> 01:43:18,159 a movie based off of a comic book which 3043 01:43:21,430 --> 01:43:19,360 is based off of 3044 01:43:23,510 --> 01:43:21,440 a mythology that is goodness knows how 3045 01:43:25,590 --> 01:43:23,520 many how many years old 3046 01:43:26,870 --> 01:43:25,600 with the idea of magic being a science 3047 01:43:27,830 --> 01:43:26,880 to them where 3048 01:43:29,910 --> 01:43:27,840 the 3049 01:43:31,590 --> 01:43:29,920 idea that you're able to at least alter 3050 01:43:33,270 --> 01:43:31,600 reality from 3051 01:43:34,709 --> 01:43:33,280 from any standpoint 3052 01:43:36,070 --> 01:43:34,719 whether you're talking a quantum level 3053 01:43:39,109 --> 01:43:36,080 whether you're talking 3054 01:43:40,149 --> 01:43:39,119 on a chemical level or or a physical 3055 01:43:42,470 --> 01:43:40,159 level 3056 01:43:44,950 --> 01:43:42,480 there's some type of action that you're 3057 01:43:47,590 --> 01:43:44,960 trying to get and the combination of 3058 01:43:50,790 --> 01:43:47,600 either the right symbol the word an 3059 01:43:53,030 --> 01:43:50,800 ingredient an action and you know belief 3060 01:43:54,229 --> 01:43:53,040 can then manifest or make that a reality 3061 01:43:56,470 --> 01:43:54,239 whether it's to make somebody fall in 3062 01:43:57,510 --> 01:43:56,480 love with you or get have money come 3063 01:43:59,510 --> 01:43:57,520 your way 3064 01:44:01,109 --> 01:43:59,520 or you know give your your neighbor a 3065 01:44:03,270 --> 01:44:01,119 wart or 3066 01:44:04,870 --> 01:44:03,280 you know remove a work from you if you 3067 01:44:07,109 --> 01:44:04,880 unfortunately have run into the wrong 3068 01:44:09,270 --> 01:44:07,119 person multiple times in a vertical you 3069 01:44:10,229 --> 01:44:09,280 know in a horizontal position that type 3070 01:44:12,390 --> 01:44:10,239 of thing 3071 01:44:16,390 --> 01:44:12,400 um again that's more egyptian magic that 3072 01:44:21,910 --> 01:44:19,510 from like give give me a a good 3073 01:44:22,950 --> 01:44:21,920 like a good run down of how you would or 3074 01:44:25,910 --> 01:44:22,960 like 3075 01:44:28,870 --> 01:44:25,920 you look at at a situation say how can i 3076 01:44:31,350 --> 01:44:28,880 apply magic to this and how would you 3077 01:44:39,669 --> 01:44:31,360 then apply it in a 3078 01:44:43,270 --> 01:44:41,430 we're on youtube no you know the the 3079 01:44:45,270 --> 01:44:43,280 people come on they leave they got to go 3080 01:44:46,870 --> 01:44:45,280 to bed they work they're on in england 3081 01:44:48,470 --> 01:44:46,880 they're in australia 3082 01:44:50,870 --> 01:44:48,480 we have as much time as you want except 3083 01:44:52,950 --> 01:44:50,880 for i think denver has most post but 3084 01:44:54,470 --> 01:44:52,960 yeah this is the thing is 3085 01:44:56,470 --> 01:44:54,480 it it would it would depend very much 3086 01:44:57,830 --> 01:44:56,480 because i've i've had i've had training 3087 01:45:00,709 --> 01:44:57,840 now and half a dozen different magical 3088 01:45:02,310 --> 01:45:00,719 systems that have um series of magical 3089 01:45:04,709 --> 01:45:02,320 action that are usually contradictory to 3090 01:45:06,390 --> 01:45:04,719 one another doesn't matter they all work 3091 01:45:08,870 --> 01:45:06,400 what we know 3092 01:45:10,709 --> 01:45:08,880 is that under certain circumstances the 3093 01:45:11,830 --> 01:45:10,719 world is the world as we experience it 3094 01:45:13,750 --> 01:45:11,840 which is of course all the world that we 3095 01:45:15,510 --> 01:45:13,760 can know the world as we experience it 3096 01:45:16,550 --> 01:45:15,520 can be shaped by changes in our 3097 01:45:18,709 --> 01:45:16,560 consciousness 3098 01:45:21,750 --> 01:45:18,719 dion fortune who who is one of my major 3099 01:45:23,510 --> 01:45:21,760 guides here refers to the 3100 01:45:25,189 --> 01:45:23,520 defines magic as the art and science of 3101 01:45:26,709 --> 01:45:25,199 causing change in consciousness in 3102 01:45:28,550 --> 01:45:26,719 accordance with will 3103 01:45:32,229 --> 01:45:28,560 and everyone says oh you mean psychology 3104 01:45:33,669 --> 01:45:32,239 well not necessarily because everything 3105 01:45:35,350 --> 01:45:33,679 you experience is filtered through 3106 01:45:36,870 --> 01:45:35,360 consciousness 3107 01:45:38,870 --> 01:45:36,880 everything that you will you know the 3108 01:45:40,310 --> 01:45:38,880 entire universe exp 3109 01:45:42,229 --> 01:45:40,320 the entire universe as far as you are 3110 01:45:43,910 --> 01:45:42,239 concerned is a reflection in your 3111 01:45:44,950 --> 01:45:43,920 consciousness you can never get outside 3112 01:45:47,189 --> 01:45:44,960 that 3113 01:45:48,550 --> 01:45:47,199 and so the universe is to some extent 3114 01:45:50,629 --> 01:45:48,560 flexible that way we don't know how 3115 01:45:52,070 --> 01:45:50,639 flexible what are the outer limits 3116 01:45:53,189 --> 01:45:52,080 nobody knows yet 3117 01:45:54,470 --> 01:45:53,199 we know there are some things you 3118 01:45:55,750 --> 01:45:54,480 probably won't be able to do very well 3119 01:45:57,270 --> 01:45:55,760 by magic we know there are some things 3120 01:45:58,950 --> 01:45:57,280 you can do very easily then there's the 3121 01:45:59,990 --> 01:45:58,960 gray area in between 3122 01:46:02,149 --> 01:46:00,000 um 3123 01:46:04,950 --> 01:46:02,159 if it's something now i'm gonna i'm 3124 01:46:06,550 --> 01:46:04,960 gonna insert something here as a bit of 3125 01:46:08,149 --> 01:46:06,560 a warning 3126 01:46:09,669 --> 01:46:08,159 because you mentioned for example making 3127 01:46:11,270 --> 01:46:09,679 people fall in love with you lots of 3128 01:46:12,629 --> 01:46:11,280 people do that let's do or try to do 3129 01:46:15,910 --> 01:46:12,639 that 3130 01:46:18,550 --> 01:46:15,920 reputation of blowing up in people's 3131 01:46:20,870 --> 01:46:18,560 faces what typically happens is that you 3132 01:46:23,430 --> 01:46:20,880 put a love whammy on somebody okay and 3133 01:46:25,350 --> 01:46:23,440 they feel for maybe 20 minutes and um 3134 01:46:26,950 --> 01:46:25,360 unexpected warm fuzzies toward you and 3135 01:46:28,229 --> 01:46:26,960 then they go and then unless you know 3136 01:46:30,709 --> 01:46:28,239 there's some good reason for them to 3137 01:46:32,229 --> 01:46:30,719 feel warm fuzzy toward you they go yuck 3138 01:46:33,910 --> 01:46:32,239 what am i thinking and they'll never 3139 01:46:35,189 --> 01:46:33,920 have anything to do with you again 3140 01:46:36,629 --> 01:46:35,199 then the spell rebounds you feel 3141 01:46:37,990 --> 01:46:36,639 hopelessly in love with them and it 3142 01:46:38,870 --> 01:46:38,000 takes you know months or years to wear 3143 01:46:41,590 --> 01:46:38,880 off 3144 01:46:44,709 --> 01:46:41,600 that's the usual rebound similarly 3145 01:46:46,229 --> 01:46:44,719 um spells to spells to make money 3146 01:46:48,709 --> 01:46:46,239 you can do it very well if you do it the 3147 01:46:49,910 --> 01:46:48,719 right way okay but the way the right way 3148 01:46:52,709 --> 01:46:49,920 is 3149 01:46:54,550 --> 01:46:52,719 i want an opportunity to earn money 3150 01:46:56,070 --> 01:46:54,560 if you say i want money to come to me 3151 01:46:57,510 --> 01:46:56,080 without my happy to earn it what you're 3152 01:46:59,109 --> 01:46:57,520 actually asking for is for the world to 3153 01:47:00,470 --> 01:46:59,119 become less fair 3154 01:47:01,910 --> 01:47:00,480 because for you to get money you didn't 3155 01:47:03,350 --> 01:47:01,920 earn someone else has to earn money and 3156 01:47:05,830 --> 01:47:03,360 not get it right 3157 01:47:08,310 --> 01:47:05,840 so the most likely way in which the 3158 01:47:10,229 --> 01:47:08,320 universe will become less fair is that 3159 01:47:13,109 --> 01:47:10,239 you will be ripped off you will be 3160 01:47:14,070 --> 01:47:13,119 cheated you will lose money everybody i 3161 01:47:15,990 --> 01:47:14,080 know 3162 01:47:17,830 --> 01:47:16,000 who has done that kind of gimme money 3163 01:47:19,910 --> 01:47:17,840 spell has ended up losing their shirt as 3164 01:47:20,629 --> 01:47:19,920 a result 3165 01:47:22,709 --> 01:47:20,639 so 3166 01:47:23,590 --> 01:47:22,719 if you do i want an opportunity to earn 3167 01:47:25,189 --> 01:47:23,600 money 3168 01:47:26,629 --> 01:47:25,199 that's another matter 3169 01:47:28,709 --> 01:47:26,639 you can do that and make it work you'll 3170 01:47:30,390 --> 01:47:28,719 be fine similarly if you want to do a 3171 01:47:32,950 --> 01:47:30,400 love spell there's actually an extremely 3172 01:47:35,350 --> 01:47:32,960 effective love spell that anybody can do 3173 01:47:37,510 --> 01:47:35,360 it is it is infallible 3174 01:47:39,109 --> 01:47:37,520 it works every single time it is 3175 01:47:41,189 --> 01:47:39,119 unstoppable it consists of making 3176 01:47:42,790 --> 01:47:41,199 yourself more lovable 3177 01:47:44,229 --> 01:47:42,800 most people who are having problems with 3178 01:47:45,590 --> 01:47:44,239 love it's because they're not actually 3179 01:47:47,189 --> 01:47:45,600 lovable people 3180 01:47:49,189 --> 01:47:47,199 and so you actually have to change 3181 01:47:50,790 --> 01:47:49,199 yourself 3182 01:47:53,350 --> 01:47:50,800 rather than trying to force somebody 3183 01:47:54,950 --> 01:47:53,360 else to get um you know to feel 3184 01:47:56,709 --> 01:47:54,960 warm emotions toward you that you have 3185 01:47:58,070 --> 01:47:56,719 done nothing to earn 3186 01:47:59,430 --> 01:47:58,080 make yourself love it but when people 3187 01:48:01,189 --> 01:47:59,440 will fall in love with you all the time 3188 01:48:02,470 --> 01:48:01,199 you can use magic for that you can you 3189 01:48:04,870 --> 01:48:02,480 can change your self image you can 3190 01:48:06,229 --> 01:48:04,880 rework how you relate to the world you 3191 01:48:08,229 --> 01:48:06,239 can invoke 3192 01:48:09,910 --> 01:48:08,239 forces into yourself that will reshape 3193 01:48:12,149 --> 01:48:09,920 how you relate to people of your 3194 01:48:13,590 --> 01:48:12,159 preferred gender or what have you and 3195 01:48:15,350 --> 01:48:13,600 you know people will fall in love with 3196 01:48:17,990 --> 01:48:15,360 you because you're lovable 3197 01:48:20,070 --> 01:48:18,000 otherwise it's not going to work so well 3198 01:48:22,149 --> 01:48:20,080 so anytime i'm looking at a magical 3199 01:48:24,310 --> 01:48:22,159 situation okay what what you know here's 3200 01:48:25,990 --> 01:48:24,320 the situation in my life i want it to 3201 01:48:28,070 --> 01:48:26,000 change there's there are things wrong 3202 01:48:29,910 --> 01:48:28,080 here there are things i do not like i do 3203 01:48:31,590 --> 01:48:29,920 not think okay what can i change in the 3204 01:48:33,109 --> 01:48:31,600 universe i think what can i change in 3205 01:48:35,669 --> 01:48:33,119 myself 3206 01:48:37,350 --> 01:48:35,679 how am i relating to the universe in a 3207 01:48:39,830 --> 01:48:37,360 way that is setting up these conflicts 3208

01:54:54,000 been a lot of dmt or lack of oxygen a 3410 01:54:57,990 --> 01:54:55,920 lot of co2 i don't know 3411 01:55:00,070 --> 01:54:58,000 but the 3412 01:55:03,270 --> 01:55:00,080 the feeling of having that power and 3413 01:55:05,350 --> 01:55:03,280 ability to change reality no matter what 3414 01:55:07,510 --> 01:55:05,360 and then realizing that if you do it 3415 01:55:09,910 --> 01:55:07,520 there's going to be consequences you're 3416 01:55:12,550 --> 01:55:09,920 going to have to make choices difficult 3417 01:55:15,109 --> 01:55:12,560 ones to get what you will be responsible 3418 01:55:16,950 --> 01:55:15,119 for the consequences exactly and what 3419 01:55:18,149 --> 01:55:16,960 i'm saying okay well i'm asking a 3420 01:55:20,629 --> 01:55:18,159 question he asked me a question and i 3421 01:55:23,030 --> 01:55:20,639 said are you sure you want me to do that 3422 01:55:24,950 --> 01:55:23,040 it's me asking myself are you sure you 3423 01:55:26,790 --> 01:55:24,960 want to take that step because of those 3424 01:55:27,750 --> 01:55:26,800 consequences can you accept 3425 01:55:33,030 --> 01:55:27,760 the 3426 01:55:35,109 --> 01:55:33,040 and be you know 3427 01:55:36,790 --> 01:55:35,119 taking your will to conquer this one 3428 01:55:38,390 --> 01:55:36,800 small thing and when you do that you 3429 01:55:39,990 --> 01:55:38,400 have that discipline well then the 3430 01:55:41,109 --> 01:55:40,000 entire world is pretty much at your at 3431 01:55:43,510 --> 01:55:41,119 your fingertips and whether it's 3432 01:55:45,910 --> 01:55:43,520 actually or not you know i'm not crazy 3433 01:55:48,390 --> 01:55:45,920 but that's the feeling you get and but 3434 01:55:50,229 --> 01:55:48,400 yeah then the thing the thing is 3435 01:55:51,669 --> 01:55:50,239 the important thing and i think 3436 01:55:54,709 --> 01:55:51,679 you've got a good coach there simply 3437 01:55:58,149 --> 01:55:54,719 because it's not just changing one thing 3438 01:55:59,750 --> 01:55:58,159 no something like a habit like smoking 3439 01:56:01,030 --> 01:55:59,760 is woven through all kinds of other 3440 01:56:02,470 --> 01:56:01,040 things in your life and if you're going 3441 01:56:08,070 --> 01:56:02,480 to change the habit you're going to 3442 01:56:12,229 --> 01:56:10,070 everything will change 3443 01:56:14,390 --> 01:56:12,239 nothing will remain the same nope 3444 01:56:16,149 --> 01:56:14,400 and that's just the way it is now the 3445 01:56:18,149 --> 01:56:16,159 idea of consequences is something that 3446 01:56:21,350 --> 01:56:18,159 i've i've always found 3447 01:56:23,589 --> 01:56:21,360 supremely fascinating and it always 3448 01:56:25,430 --> 01:56:23,599 it's the argument that now first of all 3449 01:56:27,109 --> 01:56:25,440 is the rule the the law of three if you 3450 01:56:29,350 --> 01:56:27,119 do anything then you get three times 3451 01:56:31,030 --> 01:56:29,360 that back is is that a general accepted 3452 01:56:33,109 --> 01:56:31,040 principle 3453 01:56:35,830 --> 01:56:33,119 um no it's specific that's specifically 3454 01:56:36,550 --> 01:56:35,840 a um that's that's a wicked tradition 3455 01:56:38,390 --> 01:56:36,560 and 3456 01:56:40,950 --> 01:56:38,400 uh most people consider it an extreme 3457 01:56:43,030 --> 01:56:40,960 generalization but certainly 3458 01:56:45,030 --> 01:56:43,040 everything you do 3459 01:56:49,270 --> 01:56:45,040 shapes who you are and who you are 3460 01:56:51,669 --> 01:56:50,229 and 3461 01:56:52,870 --> 01:56:51,679 for 3462 01:56:54,870 --> 01:56:52,880 and this is going to sound very basic 3463 01:56:56,070 --> 01:56:54,880 and this is also some curiosity but also 3464 01:56:57,430 --> 01:56:56,080 i just would love to be able to have 3465 01:56:59,990 --> 01:56:57,440 those who say 3466 01:57:01,430 --> 01:57:00,000 you know this this dark evil you know 3467 01:57:02,790 --> 01:57:01,440 magic isn't it 3468 01:57:04,470 --> 01:57:02,800 okay so 3469 01:57:07,430 --> 01:57:04,480 the 3470 01:57:08,629 --> 01:57:07,440 world can be a certain way 3471 01:57:10,709 --> 01:57:08,639 and that if you're going to do bad 3472 01:57:12,709 --> 01:57:10,719 you're going to get bad back 3473 01:57:14,629 --> 01:57:12,719 that if you're going to 3474 01:57:17,830 --> 01:57:14,639 the argument i have is okay well they're 3475 01:57:20,790 --> 01:57:17,840 having some type of child sex ritual to 3476 01:57:21,910 --> 01:57:20,800 empower themselves with xyz all right 3477 01:57:23,910 --> 01:57:21,920 the 3478 01:57:26,310 --> 01:57:23,920 you know even just going by just basic 3479 01:57:28,390 --> 01:57:26,320 you know if you know action gives you an 3480 01:57:30,229 --> 01:57:28,400 equal reaction and if we can go along 3481 01:57:32,149 --> 01:57:30,239 that same idea of thinking if you're 3482 01:57:33,510 --> 01:57:32,159 gonna do some bad [\h__\h] to a child which 3483 01:57:35,350 --> 01:57:33,520 is essentially hurting one of the most 3484 01:57:37,030 --> 01:57:35,360 innocent things in the planet it doesn't 3485 01:57:38,950 --> 01:57:37,040 matter what kind of power you get short 3486 01:57:41,830 --> 01:57:38,960 term you're gonna you're going to get 3487 01:57:44,310 --> 01:57:41,840 screwed so bad by the universe for doing 3488 01:57:48,550 --> 01:57:44,320 it yeah you are just you're setting 3489 01:57:50,709 --> 01:57:48,560 yourself up for a world of hurt yeah 3490 01:57:52,470 --> 01:57:50,719 the every competent occultist i know of 3491 01:57:54,870 --> 01:57:52,480 recommends that recognizes basically 3492 01:57:55,990 --> 01:57:54,880 that you have to you have to approach 3493 01:57:58,629 --> 01:57:56,000 things 3494 01:58:00,790 --> 01:57:58,639 in a manner that says okay um you know 3495 01:58:02,390 --> 01:58:00,800 what do i want in life 3496 01:58:03,990 --> 01:58:02,400 what i want in life is what i need to 3497 01:58:06,310 --> 01:58:04,000 make happen in the universe and that 3498 01:58:07,990 --> 01:58:06,320 means happening to other people as well 3499 01:58:10,149 --> 01:58:08,000 and so you know it's 3500 01:58:11,830 --> 01:58:10,159 if you go around doing you're putting 3501 01:58:13,750 --> 01:58:11,840 whammies on people it's what this is 3502 01:58:15,189 --> 01:58:13,760 what i call the raspberry jam principle 3503 01:58:16,790 --> 01:58:15,199 okay 3504 01:58:18,149 --> 01:58:16,800 if you've ever tried spreading raspberry 3505 01:58:21,030 --> 01:58:18,159 jam on bread you're going to get some

01:59:03,109 --> 01:59:00,800 their lives are disasters because 3529 01:59:05,109 --> 01:59:03,119 you know thus just because you don't 3530 01:59:06,790 --> 01:59:05,119 believe 3531 01:59:09,430 -->

02:00:18,470 --> 02:00:16,080 okay go yep so the evil big man 3568 02:00:20,070 --> 02:00:18,480 conspiracy the thing about conspiracy 3569 02:00:22,149 --> 02:00:20,080 that are there conspiracies of course 3570 02:00:23,430 --> 02:00:22,159 there are some people for thousands of 3571 02:00:25,030 --> 02:00:23,440 years 3572 02:00:26,390 --> 02:00:25,040 he people and the thing is they're 3573 02:00:28,310 --> 02:00:26,400 always conspiracies and they're always 3574 02:00:29,830 --> 02:00:28,320 competing with one another 3575 02:00:31,430 --> 02:00:29,840 that's why everyone gets into these big 3576 02:00:33,750 --> 02:00:31,440 tangles about well who actually runs the 3577 02:00:35,270 --> 02:00:33,760 world nobody because there are all of 3578 02:00:37,669 --> 02:00:35,280 these different competing groups that 3579 02:00:39,430 --> 02:00:37,679 are using this or that or another power 3580 02:00:40,550 --> 02:00:39,440 basis to try to maximize their own 3581 02:00:42,390 --> 02:00:40,560 benefit 3582 02:00:43,910 --> 02:00:42,400 um that's just that's the way things are 3583 02:00:46,390 --> 02:00:43,920 but the thing is when people become 3584 02:00:47,990 --> 02:00:46,400 fixated on conspiracies very often it's 3585 02:00:49,669 --> 02:00:48,000 to avoid having to take responsibility 3586 02:00:51,750 --> 02:00:49,679 for their own lives 3587 02:00:53,350 --> 02:00:51,760 you know again it's not you know it's 3588 02:00:56,070 --> 02:00:53,360 these evil people who are doing rituals 3589 02:00:57,350 --> 02:00:56,080 to make me eat big macs 3590 02:00:59,510 --> 02:00:57,360 um 3591 02:01:01,510 --> 02:00:59,520 oh really well no well at the same time 3592 02:01:03,910 --> 02:01:01,520 maybe instead you should just like go 3593 02:01:05,189 --> 02:01:03,920 somewhere else for lunch 3594 02:01:06,470 --> 02:01:05,199 it's personal responsibility it's 3595 02:01:08,390 --> 02:01:06,480 personal responsibility it's personal 3596 02:01:09,109 --> 02:01:08,400 responsibility like 3597 02:01:23,669 --> 02:01:09,119 the 3598 02:01:26,229 --> 02:01:23,679 control that it's just doing its own 3599 02:01:27,990 --> 02:01:26,239 thing and nobody can stop it or make it 3600 02:01:30,390 --> 02:01:28,000 any different it's just going to do what 3601 02:01:32,070 --> 02:01:30,400 it's going to do that's scary 3602 02:01:33,510 --> 02:01:32,080 and so one way around that is that 3603 02:01:35,510 --> 02:01:33,520 people will get caught up in the idea 3604 02:01:37,030 --> 02:01:35,520 that you know rich industrialists are 3605 02:01:39,109 --> 02:01:37,040 sacrificing children to sell you big 3606 02:01:40,709 --> 02:01:39,119 macs because that gives that that at 3607 02:01:43,990 --> 02:01:40,719 least gives you the vicarious sense that 3608 02:01:45,510 --> 02:01:44,000 the universe is under someone's control 3609 02:01:47,910 --> 02:01:45,520 they would rather believe in evil dark 3610 02:01:50,149 --> 02:01:47,920 forces than no forces at all 3611 02:01:51,589 --> 02:01:50,159 exactly well you know and the thing is i 3612 02:01:53,350 --> 02:01:51,599 so many people i know who are deeply 3613 02:01:54,550 --> 02:01:53,360 into conspiracy theory also claim to be 3614 02:01:55,830 --> 02:01:54,560 into new age 3615 02:01:58,070 --> 02:01:55,840 beliefs and they're saying well you know 3616 02:01:59,910 --> 02:01:58,080 we create our own reality okay why are 3617 02:02:02,709 --> 02:01:59,920 you creating a reality that's full of 3618 02:02:04,229 --> 02:02:02,719 evil space lizards 3619 02:02:06,070 --> 02:02:04,239 what are you doing in a state of 3620 02:02:09,189 --> 02:02:06,080 consciousness thank you where that's 3621 02:02:11,990 --> 02:02:09,199 your reality thank you and you know yeah 3622 02:02:13,669 --> 02:02:12,000 exactly and watching people kind of 3623 02:02:15,589 --> 02:02:13,679 write around that one is kind of it's 3624 02:02:17,109 --> 02:02:15,599 entertaining but it really is an 3625 02:02:18,709 --> 02:02:17,119 important thing because people actually 3626 02:02:21,030 --> 02:02:18,719 do want they people love their face 3627 02:02:23,109 --> 02:02:21,040 listen they want their space lizards 3628 02:02:25,270 --> 02:02:23,119 because space losers mean that it's not 3629 02:02:26,709 --> 02:02:25,280 you space doesn't mean it's it's 3630 02:02:28,870 --> 02:02:26,719 everything's someone else's fault and 3631 02:02:31,270 --> 02:02:28,880 the universe is under control and you 3632 02:02:33,589 --> 02:02:31,280 don't actually have to deal with living 3633 02:02:36,310 --> 02:02:33,599 in the universe that is not 3634 02:02:38,229 --> 02:02:36,320 under control that nobody controls 3635 02:02:39,990 --> 02:02:38,239 that's going its own way and that 3636 02:02:41,589 --> 02:02:40,000 doesn't care 3637 02:02:43,030 --> 02:02:41,599 well for instance for like this this is 3638 02:02:44,950 --> 02:02:43,040 a perfect example and again i'm not 3639 02:02:46,390 --> 02:02:44,960 going to name any names here to try and 3640 02:02:48,229 --> 02:02:46,400 avoid from getting sued 3641 02:02:49,830 --> 02:02:48,239 just putting that out there 3642 02:02:51,350 --> 02:02:49,840 um 3643 02:02:52,550 --> 02:02:51,360 okay well because actually this was a 3644 02:02:54,390 --> 02:02:52,560 situation that i ran into a couple of 3645 02:02:57,830 --> 02:02:54,400 days like a couple of days ago 3646 02:02:59,270 --> 02:02:57,840 uh and if i name people they like 3647 02:03:00,629 --> 02:02:59,280 they're in my city and they can sue the 3648 02:03:01,910 --> 02:03:00,639 like that they will sue the living [\h__\h] 3649 02:03:04,070 --> 02:03:01,920 out of me because they can 3650 02:03:06,229 --> 02:03:04,080 uh yeah exactly so yeah so so we're 3651 02:03:07,430 --> 02:03:06,239 going to say person x okay so so 3652 02:03:08,470 --> 02:03:07,440 essentially 3653 02:03:13,830 --> 02:03:08,480 um 3654 02:03:15,350 --> 02:03:13,840 was was increased 3655 02:03:17,030 --> 02:03:15,360 and 3656 02:03:19,589 --> 02:03:17,040 here in ontario it's gone up to fifteen 3657 02:03:22,070 --> 02:03:19,599 dollars or or at least a buck fifty u.s 3658 02:03:24,310 --> 02:03:22,080 with some gum and maybe like a a button 3659 02:03:26,550 --> 02:03:24,320 or something from your shoe um 3660 02:03:28,709 --> 02:03:26,560 so not very much in your standards but 3661 02:03:30,149 --> 02:03:28,719 you know for i think we were like 11.50 3662 02:03:32,870 --> 02:03:30,159 so it's going up 3663 02:03:35,350 --> 02:03:32,880 3.50 over the next couple of years 3664 02:03:38,149 --> 02:03:35,360 now every single time the 3665 02:03:39,030 --> 02:03:38,159 minimum wage goes up restauranteurs lose 3666 02:03:41,030 --> 02:03:39,040 their 3667 02:03:43,030 --> 02:03:41,040 freaking minds because they're like oh 3668 02:03:44,629 --> 02:03:43,040 my god our you know small businesses are 3669 02:03:46,390 --> 02:03:44,639 going to go out of bus like like small 3670 02:03:47,270 --> 02:03:46,400 businesses are going to close and prices 3671 02:03:49,910 --> 02:03:47,280 are going to go up you're going to spend 3672 02:03:51,910 --> 02:03:49,920 like 12 13 for a pint of beer i'm like 3673 02:03:54,149 --> 02:03:51,920 well okay and it never happened well it 3674 02:03:55,589 --> 02:03:54,159 no it doesn't uh here so here here's my 3675 02:03:57,990 --> 02:03:55,599 rationale 3676 02:03:59,189 --> 02:03:58,000 we all like it the idea of a 15 minimum 3677 02:04:01,750 --> 02:03:59,199 wage has been talked about in every 3678 02:04:03,589 --> 02:04:01,760 single american and canadian major city 3679 02:04:05,830 --> 02:04:03,599 and province and state at least that i 3680 02:04:08,390 --> 02:04:05,840 know of for the last couple of years if 3681 02:04:10,709 --> 02:04:08,400 you've opened up a restaurant and 3682 02:04:12,149 --> 02:04:10,719 recently in the last and again i i've 3683 02:04:13,030 --> 02:04:12,159 worked with restaurants for a long time 3684 02:04:16,310 --> 02:04:13,040 i've 3685 02:04:18,310 --> 02:04:16,320 one of my favorite clients who um they 3686 02:04:20,470 --> 02:04:18,320 actually catered my wedding uh i'm all 3687 02:04:21,830 --> 02:04:20,480 successful did all the branding helped 3688 02:04:23,830 --> 02:04:21,840 with the interior did like did the 3689 02:04:25,910 --> 02:04:23,840 designs for everything and then i became 3690 02:04:27,189 --> 02:04:25,920 a regular patron and they've been like 3691 02:04:28,709 --> 02:04:27,199 it's going in five years they're they're 3692 02:04:29,990 --> 02:04:28,719 sustainable because they understand that 3693 02:04:31,750 --> 02:04:30,000 you have to differentiate yourself in a 3694 02:04:33,589 --> 02:04:31,760 market and also i gave them a really 3695 02:04:35,189 --> 02:04:33,599 good marketing plan and i analyzed 3696 02:04:37,750 --> 02:04:35,199 everybody took it every single threat 3697 02:04:38,790 --> 02:04:37,760 into account now if you are opening a 3698 02:04:40,950 --> 02:04:38,800 restaurant 3699 02:04:43,990 --> 02:04:40,960 and in your business plan 3700 02:04:45,669 --> 02:04:44,000 you do not have increasing minimum wage 3701 02:04:47,910 --> 02:04:45,679 and you have to do a worst case scenario 3702 02:04:49,830 --> 02:04:47,920 here like not not a best people want to 3703 02:04:51,750 --> 02:04:49,840 think the best hope isn't a goddamn 3704 02:04:53,189 --> 02:04:51,760 strategy i'm sorry it isn't no it's not 3705 02:04:56,870 --> 02:04:53,199 a strategy 3706 02:04:59,589 --> 02:04:56,880 an application of strategy so if you're 3707 02:05:00,870 --> 02:04:59,599 saying well okay well the the the 15 an 3708 02:05:02,470 --> 02:05:00,880 hour is going up and we're gonna look 3709 02:05:05,189 --> 02:05:02,480 you know our dollar like our doors are 3710 02:05:07,589 --> 02:05:05,199 gonna close okay so you didn't take this 3711 02:05:09,350 --> 02:05:07,599 into account your swot analysis for for 3712 02:05:10,550 --> 02:05:09,360 your for your market you know your your 3713 02:05:12,149 --> 02:05:10,560 market report or at least your market 3714 02:05:14,790 --> 02:05:12,159 analysis for your business plan which 3715 02:05:16,870 --> 02:05:14,800 essentially means you were 3716 02:05:18,629 --> 02:05:16,880 negligent in your 3717 02:05:20,070 --> 02:05:18,639 you know in your ability to to plan your 3718 02:05:22,870 --> 02:05:20,080 business and you spent all this money 3719 02:05:24,790 --> 02:05:22,880 and all of this you know all of this um 3720 02:05:25,910 --> 02:05:24,800 you know all this [\h__\h] and you you're 3721 02:05:27,990 --> 02:05:25,920 like now you're up shits creek because 3722 02:05:29,830 --> 02:05:28,000 you didn't have a contingency for it and 3723 02:05:31,589 --> 02:05:29,840 now your your your your profits which 3724 02:05:34,070 --> 02:05:31,599 were already thin in an industry that 3725 02:05:36,310 --> 02:05:34,080 already underpays its staff and expects 3726 02:05:37,910 --> 02:05:36,320 customers to subsidize because you don't 3727 02:05:39,510 --> 02:05:37,920 want to pay living wage because your 3728 02:05:42,950 --> 02:05:39,520 profits are already you know close to 3729 02:05:44,149 --> 02:05:42,960 nothing um and and you know 3730 02:05:45,750 --> 02:05:44,159 you know you're 3731 02:05:46,709 --> 02:05:45,760 like you're like maybe you shouldn't be 3732 02:05:49,109 --> 02:05:46,719 in business 3733 02:05:50,790 --> 02:05:49,119 like if capitalism and entrepreneurs and 3734 02:05:52,629 --> 02:05:50,800 i'm an entrepreneur 3735 02:05:55,669 --> 02:05:52,639 i believe one thing it doesn't matter 3736 02:05:59,750 --> 02:05:55,679 what happens outside of your business 3737 02:06:01,109 --> 02:05:59,760 anything you say is an excuse except for 3738 02:06:02,470 --> 02:06:01,119 i should have worked harder i should 3739 02:06:04,229 --> 02:06:02,480 have looked at this i should have seen 3740 02:06:06,310 --> 02:06:04,239 this i should have planned better i 3741 02:06:07,669 --> 02:06:06,320 should have hired better anything it's 3742 02:06:09,109 --> 02:06:07,679 your responsibility the government 3743 02:06:11,270 --> 02:06:09,119 doesn't run your business 3744 02:06:13,030 --> 02:06:11,280 you run your business well and the other 3745 02:06:15,430 --> 02:06:13,040 thing that nobody seems to take into 3746 02:06:18,149 --> 02:06:15,440 account okay if the minimum wage goes up 3747 02:06:19,589 --> 02:06:18,159 to 15 an hour what's the other yes you 3748 02:06:21,109 --> 02:06:19,599 know you have to pay more wages what's 3749 02:06:23,350 --> 02:06:21,119 the other thing that happens 3750 02:06:25,830 --> 02:06:23,360 that all the people who are out there 3751 02:06:27,990 --> 02:06:25,840 making on minimum wage jobs all of a 3752 02:06:29,589 --> 02:06:28,000 sudden have a lot more money to spend 3753 02:06:31,189 --> 02:06:29,599 and that means they might 3754 02:06:33,750 --> 02:06:31,199 shudder the thought 3755 02:06:35,910 --> 02:06:33,760 actually go out to dinner more often 3756 02:06:38,149 --> 02:06:35,920 yeah or pay their bills you see that's 3757 02:06:40,069 --> 02:06:38,159 that's yeah exactly this is the thing 3758 02:06:41,189 --> 02:06:40,079 the flip side of the of a minimum wage 3759 02:06:42,149 --> 02:06:41,199 increase is 3760 02:06:44,870 --> 02:06:42,159 you know 3761 02:06:46,870 --> 02:06:44,880 i i do not henry ford the the automobile 3762 02:06:49,109 --> 02:06:46,880 magnate was you know i'm sure he was a 3763 02:06:51,430 --> 02:06:49,119 nasty man in many ways but he had one 3764 02:06:54,229 --> 02:06:51,440 very very important insight which is 3765 02:06:56,069 --> 02:06:54,239 that if you don't pay your employees 3766 02:06:59,109 --> 02:06:56,079 enough to allow them to buy your product 3767 02:07:01,510 --> 02:06:59,119 you're doing it wrong and so he boosted 3768 02:07:02,870 --> 02:07:01,520 his his employees wages way above 3769 02:07:05,270 --> 02:07:02,880 prevailing standards so that they could 3770 02:07:06,950 --> 02:07:05,280 afford to buy his cars and that's why 3771 02:07:09,030 --> 02:07:06,960 ford motor company became you know in 3772 02:07:10,069 --> 02:07:09,040 its time the largest car car company in 3773 02:07:13,030 --> 02:07:10,079 the world 3774 02:07:15,990 --> 02:07:13,040 because he understood that 3775 02:07:17,990 --> 02:07:16,000 basically a consumer economy cannot 3776 02:07:19,589 --> 02:07:18,000 survive if the consumers have no money 3777 02:07:21,350 --> 02:07:19,599 to spend 3778 02:07:23,350 --> 02:07:21,360 when the rich people have all the money 3779 02:07:24,629 --> 02:07:23,360 like if the rich people 3780 02:07:25,910 --> 02:07:24,639 yeah if the rich people have all the 3781 02:07:27,270 --> 02:07:25,920 money you have a surplus of money 3782 02:07:28,629 --> 02:07:27,280 available for investment which drives 3783 02:07:30,550 --> 02:07:28,639 down interest rates so that you don't 3784 02:07:32,390 --> 02:07:30,560 get any return on investment and you 3785 02:07:33,830 --> 02:07:32,400 have a defeat you have a deficit of 3786 02:07:35,830 --> 02:07:33,840 money available for consumption which 3787 02:07:38,149 --> 02:07:35,840 means which means the overall production 3788 02:07:39,189 --> 02:07:38,159 crisis all you have to do is increase 3789 02:07:40,550 --> 02:07:39,199 wages 3790 02:07:42,229 --> 02:07:40,560 and 3791 02:07:43,830 --> 02:07:42,239 basically make sure that more of the 3792 02:07:46,790 --> 02:07:43,840 money in circulation ends up in the 3793 02:07:48,149 --> 02:07:46,800 pockets of consumers which means not the 3794 02:07:49,430 --> 02:07:48,159 rich because when the rich get money 3795 02:07:51,270 --> 02:07:49,440 they invest it when the poor get money 3796 02:07:53,189 --> 02:07:51,280 they spend it that's why you want lots 3797 02:07:54,790 --> 02:07:53,199 of money in the hands of the poor 3798 02:07:57,030 --> 02:07:54,800 in a situation like this one where we 3799 02:07:59,830 --> 02:07:57,040 have an investment surplus and a 3800 02:08:01,910 --> 02:07:59,840 consumption deficit now okay 3801 02:08:03,430 --> 02:08:01,920 well yeah i know this is simple yeah and 3802 02:08:05,189 --> 02:08:03,440 i i don't know totally simple well 3803 02:08:06,870 --> 02:08:05,199 things like kevin and chad is saying say 3804 02:08:09,510 --> 02:08:06,880 hello to automation 3805 02:08:11,109 --> 02:08:09,520 i'll make one and yes it's a concern and 3806 02:08:14,550 --> 02:08:11,119 at some point like the biggest things 3807 02:08:15,990 --> 02:08:14,560 for automation are fast food and and um 3808 02:08:19,830 --> 02:08:16,000 transportation 3809 02:08:22,470 --> 02:08:19,840 big big wheeler 3810 02:08:24,470 --> 02:08:22,480 until you can actually have a skynet 3811 02:08:27,270 --> 02:08:24,480 level intelligence behind the wheel of 3812 02:08:28,790 --> 02:08:27,280 an eight you know a a a big rig it's not 3813 02:08:31,270 --> 02:08:28,800 going to because you need somebody who's 3814 02:08:33,430 --> 02:08:31,280 going to inspect that car that that that 3815 02:08:34,790 --> 02:08:33,440 motor vehicle at every single juncture 3816 02:08:36,390 --> 02:08:34,800 that it's supposed to be to ensure that 3817 02:08:38,870 --> 02:08:36,400 it's optimal 3818 02:08:40,470 --> 02:08:38,880 operating capacity to go from the long 3819 02:08:42,470 --> 02:08:40,480 distances it does the only person who 3820 02:08:44,790 --> 02:08:42,480 can do that unless until you get 3821 02:08:47,189 --> 02:08:44,800 somebody who can actively make decisions 3822 02:08:48,629 --> 02:08:47,199 as fast and a human can you're not going 3823 02:08:50,390 --> 02:08:48,639 it won't happen you're going to still 3824 02:08:51,510 --> 02:08:50,400 have somebody maybe pay them less but 3825 02:08:53,510 --> 02:08:51,520 they're still going to be a hot behind 3826 02:08:56,069 --> 02:08:53,520 the wheel and fast food mcdonald's 3827 02:08:57,510 --> 02:08:56,079 actually hired more people after 3828 02:08:59,510 --> 02:08:57,520 their automation and you know i'm sorry 3829 02:09:01,189 --> 02:08:59,520 i've been to mcdonald's with with the 3830 02:09:02,550 --> 02:09:01,199 automated tellers 3831 02:09:04,870 --> 02:09:02,560 half the time they don't work and it 3832 02:09:06,390 --> 02:09:04,880 actually takes longer to order from 3833 02:09:09,750 --> 02:09:06,400 those things than it does to wait in 3834 02:09:11,669 --> 02:09:09,760 line in order from the person directly 3835 02:09:13,270 --> 02:09:11,679 now here's the other thing 3836 02:09:14,950 --> 02:09:13,280 automation 3837 02:09:17,189 --> 02:09:14,960 looks really profitable but that's 3838 02:09:18,550 --> 02:09:17,199 because there is a galaxy of perverse 3839 02:09:21,030 --> 02:09:18,560 incentives 3840 02:09:21,910 --> 02:09:21,040 in the economy is primarily in the tax 3841 02:09:24,629 --> 02:09:21,920 codes 3842 02:09:26,470 --> 02:09:24,639 that that um subsidize automation and 3843 02:09:28,149 --> 02:09:26,480 penalize employing people i don't know 3844 02:09:29,589 --> 02:09:28,159 how things work in canada but here in 3845 02:09:30,790 --> 02:09:29,599 the united states if you want to hire 3846 02:09:32,470 --> 02:09:30,800 somebody you don't just have to pay 3847 02:09:33,990 --> 02:09:32,480 their salary you have to pay a whole 3848 02:09:35,750 --> 02:09:34,000 bunch of money into social security this 3849 02:09:36,870 --> 02:09:35,760 is if you're an employer okay 3850 02:09:37,830 --> 02:09:36,880 you're you know you've got a business 3851 02:09:39,350 --> 02:09:37,840 you've got a restaurant let's say you 3852 02:09:41,109 --> 02:09:39,360 want to hire somebody you have to pay 3853 02:09:42,229 --> 02:09:41,119 their their wages okay that's fine you 3854 02:09:43,990 --> 02:09:42,239 also have to pay into the social 3855 02:09:45,750 --> 02:09:44,000 security you have to pay workman's comp 3856 02:09:48,310 --> 02:09:45,760 you all of these additional fees that 3857 02:09:50,950 --> 02:09:48,320 are piled on to the simple cost of 3858 02:09:52,470 --> 02:09:50,960 hiring a worker which makes it less 3859 02:09:53,510 --> 02:09:52,480 economically advantageous to hire 3860 02:09:54,709 --> 02:09:53,520 somebody on the other hand if you 3861 02:09:58,629 --> 02:09:54,719 automate 3862 02:10:00,069 --> 02:09:58,639 you can depreciate the automation 3863 02:10:01,990 --> 02:10:00,079 so it's actually you're actually getting 3864 02:10:04,310 --> 02:10:02,000 subsidized for automation and penalized 3865 02:10:07,030 --> 02:10:04,320 for hiring people if you remove those 3866 02:10:08,709 --> 02:10:07,040 perverse incentives 3867 02:10:10,629 --> 02:10:08,719 okay 3868 02:10:12,629 --> 02:10:10,639 so that the input the only cost to the 3869 02:10:14,310 --> 02:10:12,639 employer for hiring somebody is the is 3870 02:10:15,270 --> 02:10:14,320 the wages that he paid that he or she 3871 02:10:16,069 --> 02:10:15,280 has to pay 3872 02:10:17,910 --> 02:10:16,079 them 3873 02:10:19,109 --> 02:10:17,920 then you're going to see a lot less 3874 02:10:21,430 --> 02:10:19,119 automation because it doesn't make as 3875 02:10:23,830 --> 02:10:21,440 much economic sense human beings are 3876 02:10:25,669 --> 02:10:23,840 still in mo for most business-related 3877 02:10:27,030 --> 02:10:25,679 applications superior because they're 3878 02:10:29,430 --> 02:10:27,040 much more flexible and they could do 3879 02:10:31,189 --> 02:10:29,440 things like make snap judgments work 3880 02:10:33,030 --> 02:10:31,199 around problems you don't have to 3881 02:10:35,270 --> 02:10:33,040 completely reprogram them or you know 3882 02:10:36,550 --> 02:10:35,280 every time some minor little thing goes 3883 02:10:40,069 --> 02:10:36,560 wrong 3884 02:10:41,990 --> 02:10:40,079 and you know the the this cult 3885 02:10:43,430 --> 02:10:42,000 of automation the notion that automation 3886 02:10:45,030 --> 02:10:43,440 always makes economic sense it's a 3887 02:10:48,870 --> 02:10:45,040 superstition 3888 02:10:50,870 --> 02:10:48,880 mythology of perpetual progress and 3889 02:10:53,189 --> 02:10:50,880 it it has nothing to do with the real 3890 02:10:54,709 --> 02:10:53,199 world and i could very easily see us 3891 02:10:56,310 --> 02:10:54,719 ending up with a society where all the 3892 02:10:57,750 --> 02:10:56,320 big corporations have followed that 3893 02:11:00,149 --> 02:10:57,760 blindly 3894 02:11:01,669 --> 02:11:00,159 into dysfunctional bankruptcy because 3895 02:11:03,350 --> 02:11:01,679 everything's automated and none of it 3896 02:11:05,910 --> 02:11:03,360 works and nobody uses it and so you go 3897 02:11:08,229 --> 02:11:05,920 under the table to you know to um with 3898 02:11:10,470 --> 02:11:08,239 some kind of little bitty business 3899 02:11:13,109 --> 02:11:10,480 that actually has people 3900 02:11:15,669 --> 02:11:13,119 okay and can actually meet your needs 3901 02:11:17,750 --> 02:11:15,679 now i i know that that um 3902 02:11:20,149 --> 02:11:17,760 there is at least in going back to tali 3903 02:11:21,510 --> 02:11:20,159 here and chat who stated that uh uh that 3904 02:11:23,030 --> 02:11:21,520 for there was apparently a hoax about 3905 02:11:24,870 --> 02:11:23,040 four that had given up the protocols 3906 02:11:25,830 --> 02:11:24,880 with the model t but they may have been 3907 02:11:26,629 --> 02:11:25,840 a hoax 3908 02:11:28,310 --> 02:11:26,639 um 3909 02:11:29,990 --> 02:11:28,320 are you aware of anything regarding that 3910 02:11:32,790 --> 02:11:30,000 oh no the thing is no the thing is henry 3911 02:11:34,870 --> 02:11:32,800 ford was another semite okay 3912 02:11:37,430 --> 02:11:34,880 he was lots of people are probably you 3913 02:11:39,589 --> 02:11:37,440 know most human beings are problematic 3914 02:11:41,189 --> 02:11:39,599 most human beings do at least something 3915 02:11:43,510 --> 02:11:41,199 somewhere in their lives that's pretty 3916 02:11:45,589 --> 02:11:43,520 raunchy or pretty horrible or what have 3917 02:11:47,189 --> 02:11:45,599 you and if you want to say well this 3918 02:11:48,950 --> 02:11:47,199 person did that horrible thing therefore 3919 02:11:50,950 --> 02:11:48,960 we're going to ignore everything else 3920 02:11:52,790 --> 02:11:50,960 that they ever did or said that's very 3921 02:11:54,310 --> 02:11:52,800 comforting if you want to kind of bring 3922 02:11:56,229 --> 02:11:54,320 yourself on your own state of 3923 02:11:57,830 --> 02:11:56,239 self-righteous virtue but you know 3924 02:11:59,430 --> 02:11:57,840 i'm sure 100 years from now people will 3925 02:12:01,109 --> 02:11:59,440 look at something you didn't say he was 3926 02:12:03,030 --> 02:12:01,119 evil therefore we should we should hate 3927 02:12:04,390 --> 02:12:03,040 him for the rest of eternity that's 3928 02:12:07,430 --> 02:12:04,400 really stupid this is what i call 3929 02:12:08,790 --> 02:12:07,440 newspeak thinking do you remember 1984 3930 02:12:10,310 --> 02:12:08,800 where they had this language called 3931 02:12:13,910 --> 02:12:10,320 newspeak where 3932 02:12:15,830 --> 02:12:13,920 there was good and ungood 3933 02:12:17,510 --> 02:12:15,840 those were the only terms of approval 3934 02:12:18,550 --> 02:12:17,520 and disapproval they had all the other 3935 02:12:20,390 --> 02:12:18,560 every other 3936 02:12:22,629 --> 02:12:20,400 shade of meaning was evaporated good and 3937 02:12:23,990 --> 02:12:22,639 ungood and that was by the way good 3938 02:12:27,109 --> 02:12:24,000 means like 3939 02:12:28,470 --> 02:12:27,119 politically compliant it means um all 3940 02:12:30,629 --> 02:12:28,480 the different things it's all narrowed 3941 02:12:32,390 --> 02:12:30,639 down so someone who is good cannot be 3942 02:12:34,149 --> 02:12:32,400 ungood someone who is ungood cannot be 3943 02:12:36,149 --> 02:12:34,159 good sure you can point to the fact that 3944 02:12:37,669 --> 02:12:36,159 henry ford was anti-semite 3945 02:12:39,669 --> 02:12:37,679 and that he had various he had certain 3946 02:12:42,069 --> 02:12:39,679 other nasty habits and 3947 02:12:44,069 --> 02:12:42,079 but does that mean that he was wrong to 3948 02:12:45,990 --> 02:12:44,079 say that you should pay your employers 3949 02:12:47,750 --> 02:12:46,000 your employees a living wage 3950 02:12:49,510 --> 02:12:47,760 no it does not 3951 02:12:51,270 --> 02:12:49,520 this is another of the reasons why i say 3952 02:12:53,030 --> 02:12:51,280 that people are really dumb these days 3953 02:12:54,550 --> 02:12:53,040 because that kind of thought that kind 3954 02:12:56,390 --> 02:12:54,560 of well here's something he did wrong 3955 02:12:58,229 --> 02:12:56,400 therefore we should we should all um 3956 02:13:00,390 --> 02:12:58,239 give him his two minutes hate and then 3957 02:13:02,390 --> 02:13:00,400 ignore him that kind of thinking would 3958 02:13:03,910 --> 02:13:02,400 not have passed muster for five seconds 3959 02:13:05,589 --> 02:13:03,920 in 1858 3960 02:13:07,030 --> 02:13:05,599 and i want to know why we've become so 3961 02:13:08,470 --> 02:13:07,040 stupid these days 3962 02:13:11,510 --> 02:13:08,480 that people can say well this person did 3963 02:13:17,109 --> 02:13:13,990 and that's somehow an argument 3964 02:13:18,950 --> 02:13:17,119 it's it's a 3965 02:13:20,790 --> 02:13:18,960 it's an entire cycle of 3966 02:13:22,390 --> 02:13:20,800 i i think it's honestly our sister our 3967 02:13:23,910 --> 02:13:22,400 society as a whole 3968 02:13:30,870 --> 02:13:23,920 is 3969 02:13:32,709 --> 02:13:30,880 and you know there's the 3970 02:13:35,189 --> 02:13:32,719 there's this entire um 3971 02:13:35,910 --> 02:13:35,199 trying to shift blame back and forth 3972 02:13:37,430 --> 02:13:35,920 and 3973 02:13:39,430 --> 02:13:37,440 it's it's like okay well 3974 02:13:41,589 --> 02:13:39,440 your bad 3975 02:13:43,750 --> 02:13:41,599 out does my good 3976 02:13:46,229 --> 02:13:43,760 and there's what is it the adage the the 3977 02:13:47,830 --> 02:13:46,239 narcissist prayer uh you know it didn't 3978 02:13:50,069 --> 02:13:47,840 happen and if it did it wasn't that bad 3979 02:13:52,310 --> 02:13:50,079 if it was then it's not a big deal if if 3980 02:13:54,310 --> 02:13:52,320 it is it's that's not my fault and if it 3981 02:13:55,669 --> 02:13:54,320 was i didn't mean it and if i did you 3982 02:13:57,510 --> 02:13:55,679

02:16:14,470 --> 02:16:12,719 of taste because you took a public 4056 02:16:15,830 --> 02:16:14,480 figure and his family was directly 4057 02:16:17,750 --> 02:16:15,840 affected and possibly

the the early 4064 02:16:34,549 --> 02:16:33,599 1900s you know it's it's like i know you 4065 02:16:38,870 --> 02:16:34,559 can't 4066 02:16:41,270 --> 02:16:38,880 if you're if you're going to 4067 02:16:44,629 --> 02:16:41,280 condemn one thing you have to condemn 4068 02:16:47,110 --> 02:16:44,639 both because both across the board yeah 4069 02:16:48,870 --> 02:16:47,120 but but these days

02:17:00,080 that's being poured by people on both 4077 02:17:05,349 --> 02:17:03,120 sides of the political spectrum 4078 02:17:06,950 --> 02:17:05,359 towards their enemies the only time i 4079 02:17:09,349 --> 02:17:06,960 can think of in american history we've 4080 02:17:12,070 --> 02:17:09,359 had that again is the run-up to 1861 4081 02:17:14,790 --> 02:17:12,080 which is the beginning

4270 02:23:33,990 --> 02:23:32,550 okay 4271 02:23:35,670 --> 02:23:34,000 and it's it you know 4272 02:23:36,550 --> 02:23:35,680 yeah so the 4273 02:23:41,830 --> 02:23:36,560 the 4274 02:23:44,150 --> 02:23:41,840 about russia 4275 02:23:46,309 --> 02:23:44,160 most of what i see from the american 4276 02:23:47,590 --> 02:23:46,319 left right now is a desperate attempt to 4277 02:23:50,150 --> 02:23:47,600 people to 4278 02:23:52,389 --> 02:23:50,160 to somehow evade the fact that hillary 4279 02:23:54,389 --> 02:23:52,399 clinton ran the most incompetent 4280 02:23:56,630 --> 02:23:54,399 political campaign i have seen in my 4281 02:23:59,349 --> 02:23:56,640 lifetime and i remember presidential 4282 02:24:01,510 --> 02:23:59,359 campaigns going back to hubert humphrey 4283 02:24:03,349 --> 02:24:01,520 she did a decimal 4284 02:24:04,790 --> 02:24:03,359 she was making the decisions 4285 02:24:06,550 --> 02:24:04,800 okay 4286 02:24:08,550 --> 02:24:06,560 not only that she made all the same 4287 02:24:11,030 --> 02:24:08,560 mistakes in 2016 that she made running 4288 02:24:12,710 --> 02:24:11,040 against barack obama in 2008 so she was 4289 02:24:14,469 --> 02:24:12,720 she was either unable or unwilling to 4290 02:24:16,950 --> 02:24:14,479 learn from her errors obama admitted to 4291 02:24:19,190 --> 02:24:16,960 doing cocaine and he still got elected 4292 02:24:20,790 --> 02:24:19,200 exactly and the thing and and donald 4293 02:24:23,910 --> 02:24:20,800 trump was donald trump and he still got 4294 02:24:25,590 --> 02:24:23,920 elected okay no she she's she's a 4295 02:24:27,110 --> 02:24:25,600 miserably bad campaigner and she's and 4296 02:24:29,830 --> 02:24:27,120 she's she simply 4297 02:24:32,230 --> 02:24:29,840 she did she ran an epically in the 4298 02:24:33,750 --> 02:24:32,240 campaign and lost 4299 02:24:34,870 --> 02:24:33,760 but the democrats aren't willing to deal 4300 02:24:36,230 --> 02:24:34,880 with that 4301 02:24:38,070 --> 02:24:36,240 and of course she's not only to know 4302 02:24:39,670 --> 02:24:38,080 she's busy trying to find someone else 4303 02:24:40,710 --> 02:24:39,680 to blame 4304 02:24:41,590 --> 02:24:40,720 i mean it's gotten to the point that 4305 02:24:46,469 --> 02:24:41,600 even 4306 02:24:48,550 --> 02:24:46,479 miss clinton you're kind of avoiding 4307 02:24:50,630 --> 02:24:48,560 major issues here which that you lost 4308 02:24:52,950 --> 02:24:50,640 and here are the decisions you made that 4309 02:24:56,230 --> 02:24:52,960 possibly you know 4310 02:24:58,870 --> 02:24:56,240 one of those things but at any rate um 4311 02:25:00,870 --> 02:24:58,880 whatever was actually going on wasn't 4312 02:25:01,750 --> 02:25:00,880 what's not actually going on 4313 02:25:03,990 --> 02:25:01,760 um 4314 02:25:06,469 --> 02:25:04,000 i don't know admin will ever know 4315 02:25:09,110 --> 02:25:06,479 it's become a complete 4316 02:25:11,349 --> 02:25:09,120 flustered cluck 4317 02:25:14,150 --> 02:25:11,359 he should he said she said um 4318 02:25:15,110 --> 02:25:14,160 disinformation from all sides 4319 02:25:16,630 --> 02:25:15,120 and 4320 02:25:18,389 --> 02:25:16,640 you know they're everyone will end up 4321 02:25:20,710 --> 02:25:18,399 believing the story that if it appeals 4322 02:25:22,230 --> 02:25:20,720 to their emotions well my my prediction 4323 02:25:23,830 --> 02:25:22,240 is my prediction is if 4324 02:25:24,950 --> 02:25:23,840 if he gets impeached and it's not going 4325 02:25:25,750 --> 02:25:24,960 to happen like you know everyone's 4326 02:25:26,950 --> 02:25:25,760 saying like always going to get 4327 02:25:29,110 --> 02:25:26,960 impeached and all this information is 4328 02:25:31,429 --> 02:25:29,120 coming out we live we live in an age of 4329 02:25:34,230 --> 02:25:31,439 instantaneous information transmission 4330 02:25:35,750 --> 02:25:34,240 it's it is what caesar originally would 4331 02:25:36,870 --> 02:25:35,760 have loved which is to be in every 4332 02:25:37,990 --> 02:25:36,880 single home 4333 02:25:39,349 --> 02:25:38,000 and to be able to see every single 4334 02:25:40,710 --> 02:25:39,359 person every single citizen to know 4335 02:25:41,670 --> 02:25:40,720 what's going on we live in that world 4336 02:25:43,429 --> 02:25:41,680 now 4337 02:25:45,110 --> 02:25:43,439 um and they said it's like look into 4338 02:25:47,910 --> 02:25:45,120 windows well guess what windows is on 4339 02:25:49,750 --> 02:25:47,920 most systems and bill gates made it and 4340 02:25:51,270 --> 02:25:49,760 nsa has a backdoor into it apparently if 4341 02:25:53,670 --> 02:25:51,280 you believe some people oh yeah they can 4342 02:25:55,190 --> 02:25:53,680 do crazy [\h__\h]

was probably going to 4346 02:26:03,030 --> 02:26:00,640 happen about 2019 because he's you know 4347 02:26:05,110 --> 02:26:03,040 like 2018 again as i said democratic 4348 02:26:06,630 --> 02:26:05,120 politicians they now they now have found 4349 02:26:07,830 --> 02:26:06,640 their balls for for whatever reason 4350 02:26:08,790 --> 02:26:07,840 you've got a couple of guys who found 4351 02:26:10,150 --> 02:26:08,800 their balls 4352 02:26:13,110 --> 02:26:10,160 and they're you know they're they're 4353 02:26:14,469 --> 02:26:13,120 putting up a very good show of of 4354 02:26:15,910 --> 02:26:14,479 you know like talking sternly the 4355 02:26:18,469 --> 02:26:15,920 republicans there are some that are like 4356 02:26:20,870 --> 02:26:18,479 very concerned deeply concerned 4357 02:26:23,349 --> 02:26:20,880 super concerned there's maybe one holy 4358 02:26:25,510 --> 02:26:23,359 [\h__\h] this is crazy and then there the 4359 02:26:26,550 --> 02:26:25,520 rest

you know who could 4363 02:26:33,270 --> 02:26:31,600 have obstructed justice or could have 4364 02:26:34,790 --> 02:26:33,280 committed espionage whatever whatever 4365 02:26:35,990 --> 02:26:34,800

left-leaning 4375 02:26:53,030 --> 02:26:51,200 right-leaning in every single state it's 4376 02:26:54,870 --> 02:26:53,040 just which state takes most now if you 4377 02:26:56,550 --> 02:26:54,880

illuminati would say 4390 02:27:19,990 --> 02:27:18,560 i'm just just putting that out there now 4391 02:27:22,630 --> 02:27:20,000 okay 4392 02:27:24,389 --> 02:27:22,640 you have a like but the country's the 4393 02:27:25,990 --> 02:27:24,399 last civil war you had it was about 4394 02:27:27,110 --> 02:27:26,000 slavery anybody says it wasn't just 4395 02:27:28,950 --> 02:27:27,120 about slavery 4396 02:27:31,270 --> 02:27:28,960 no it was about slaves it was it was it 4397 02:27:32,870 --> 02:27:31,280 was about much more it was about slavery 4398 02:27:34,710 --> 02:27:32,880 there were other things involved it was 4399 02:27:36,710 --> 02:27:34,720 not just it was about slavery but it was 4400 02:27:38,309 --> 02:27:36,720 not just about slavery it's very easy to 4401 02:27:39,830 --> 02:27:38,319 flatten it out 4402 02:27:42,389 --> 02:27:39,840 because it was also about economic 4403 02:27:44,070 --> 02:27:42,399 policy it was about um the balanced 4404 02:27:46,469 --> 02:27:44,080 power within the different regions of 4405 02:27:47,510 --> 02:27:46,479 the united states it was about there 4406 02:27:49,190 --> 02:27:47,520 there's 4407 02:27:50,710 --> 02:27:49,200 it's very easy to work it out to a 4408 02:27:53,190 --> 02:27:50,720 symbol to a simple answer was it about 4409 02:27:54,309 --> 02:27:53,200 slavery but okay just about flavor 4410 02:27:56,070 --> 02:27:54,319 okay the 4411 02:27:57,830 --> 02:27:56,080 and i can understand from my my own 4412 02:27:59,670 --> 02:27:57,840 research is that the it wasn't the 4413 02:28:00,870 --> 02:27:59,680 slavery that was used because it was the 4414 02:28:02,230 --> 02:28:00,880 poor people who fought in the front 4415 02:28:03,670 --> 02:28:02,240 lines it was the one they they were the 4416 02:28:06,950 --> 02:28:03,680 soldiers 4417 02:28:09,110 --> 02:28:06,960 the idea of slavery was around that okay 4418 02:28:11,429 --> 02:28:09,120 so these slaves 4419 02:28:14,790 --> 02:28:11,439 and the idea was basically put that 4420 02:28:16,710 --> 02:28:14,800 the if you were black you were 4421 02:28:18,870 --> 02:28:16,720 you know like you were your property 4422 02:28:22,230 --> 02:28:18,880 which essentially means the poorest [\h__\h] 4423 02:28:23,670 --> 02:28:22,240 poor hillbilly from god knows where 4424 02:28:25,590 --> 02:28:23,680 who is like four generations of 4425 02:28:27,910 --> 02:28:25,600 inbreeding in who doesn't have a dime to 4426 02:28:30,070 --> 02:28:27,920 his name and who shoots muskrats you 4427 02:28:33,750 --> 02:28:30,080 know in the middle of 4428 02:28:36,150 --> 02:28:33,760 [\h__\h] nowhere 1800 some united states 4429 02:28:38,070 --> 02:28:36,160 that slave is still 4430 02:28:41,429 --> 02:28:38,080 worse off it's still lower on the totem 4431 02:28:43,030 --> 02:28:41,439 pole of society than you are so when 4432 02:28:44,309 --> 02:28:43,040 the news came around that like well 4433 02:28:45,990 --> 02:28:44,319 we're going to free everybody and equal 4434 02:28:48,309 --> 02:28:46,000 rights is like by law is going to be 4435 02:28:50,710 --> 02:28:48,319 enshrined for for the slaves 4436 02:28:52,630 --> 02:28:50,720 that notion was ingrained into people so 4437 02:28:54,150 --> 02:28:52,640 it wasn't the fact that well we're going 4438 02:28:55,429 --> 02:28:54,160 to lose all this money and you know the 4439 02:28:58,230 --> 02:28:55,439 the states you know states rights and 4440 02:29:00,070 --> 02:28:58,240 this and that it was well like the idea 4441 02:29:01,510 --> 02:29:00,080 of states rights was used as a scapegoat 4442 02:29:03,510 --> 02:29:01,520 for people to be able to continue to use 4443 02:29:06,790 --> 02:29:03,520 their money and keep the economy going 4444 02:29:09,510 --> 02:29:06,800 but the fear of status loss was used in 4445 02:29:15,349 --> 02:29:09,520 the poor population to get them to fight 4446 02:29:17,510 --> 02:29:16,630 yeah but they lost catastrophically yes 4447 02:29:22,469 --> 02:29:17,520 but 4448 02:29:24,150 --> 02:29:22,479 there are very few events in american 4449 02:29:27,190 --> 02:29:24,160 history about which more mythology 4450 02:29:29,030 --> 02:29:27,200 exists on all sides than the civil war 4451 02:29:31,030 --> 02:29:29,040 it was a much complex phenomenon that 4452 02:29:33,830 --> 02:29:31,040 many people think for example the really 4453 02:29:35,990 --> 02:29:33,840 poor parts of the deep south um west 4454 02:29:39,349 --> 02:29:36,000 north carolina what's now west virginia 4455 02:29:40,790 --> 02:29:39,359 some of the others those won't fly union 4456 02:29:42,550 --> 02:29:40,800 that's why we have a state of west 4457 02:29:45,750 --> 02:29:42,560 virginia because the entire 4458 02:29:48,630 --> 02:29:45,760 dirt poor western half of virginia split 4459 02:29:50,550 --> 02:29:48,640 off in 1862 refused to join the 4460 02:29:51,910 --> 02:29:50,560 confederacy 4461 02:29:53,190 --> 02:29:51,920 okay 4462 02:29:54,950 --> 02:29:53,200 um 4463 02:29:56,389 --> 02:29:54,960 western western north carolina which is 4464 02:29:58,070 --> 02:29:56,399 way up in the mountains and it's again 4465 02:29:59,510 --> 02:29:58,080 it's it's very much muskrat and 4466 02:30:01,670 --> 02:29:59,520 territory okay 4467 02:30:03,429 --> 02:30:01,680 um that was a bastard of union sentiment 4468 02:30:04,630 --> 02:30:03,439 all through the war 4469 02:30:06,150 --> 02:30:04,640 again 4470 02:30:07,190 --> 02:30:06,160 one of the things 4471 02:30:09,429 --> 02:30:07,200 there's 4472 02:30:11,429 --> 02:30:09,439 we we pretend we don't have mythology 4473 02:30:13,750 --> 02:30:11,439 nowadays and so we usually substitute 4474 02:30:15,110 --> 02:30:13,760 history for it i'm sure if i knew it if 4475 02:30:16,309 --> 02:30:15,120 i knew as much about canadian history as 4476 02:30:18,710 --> 02:30:16,319 you know about america through i could 4477 02:30:20,309 --> 02:30:18,720 probably point out examples or i might 4478 02:30:21,510 --> 02:30:20,319 very well say things about canadian 4479 02:30:23,190 --> 02:30:21,520 history would have you dropping your 4480 02:30:24,870 --> 02:30:23,200 hand you feed your hands and your face 4481 02:30:26,150 --> 02:30:24,880 into your hands no no no no it's much 4482 02:30:27,670 --> 02:30:26,160 more complex 4483 02:30:28,710 --> 02:30:27,680 uh you i actually probably know about 4484 02:30:30,070 --> 02:30:28,720 american history than i do about 4485 02:30:31,750 --> 02:30:30,080 canadian and you probably know more 4486 02:30:33,270 --> 02:30:31,760 about canadian and american history than 4487 02:30:34,309 --> 02:30:33,280 i do so 4488 02:30:36,150 --> 02:30:34,319 just 4489 02:30:37,750 --> 02:30:36,160 because mostly most canadians do learn 4490 02:30:38,870 --> 02:30:37,760 but still go ahead 4491 02:30:40,710 --> 02:30:38,880 yeah i said no it's just one of those 4492 02:30:43,030 --> 02:30:40,720 things but yeah the thing the thing to 4493 02:30:46,150 --> 02:30:43,040 keep in mind is that 4494 02:30:50,790 --> 02:30:48,230 the civil war 4495 02:30:53,190 --> 02:30:50,800 and everything having to do with it 4496 02:30:53,830 --> 02:30:53,200 since the day after appomattox has been 4497 02:30:59,429 --> 02:30:53,840 a 4498 02:31:01,590 --> 02:30:59,439 directions 4499 02:31:02,710 --> 02:31:01,600 for for like three generations after the 4500 02:31:04,309 --> 02:31:02,720 civil war 4501 02:31:07,590 --> 02:31:04,319 you knew you were in the house of 4502 02:31:09,750 --> 02:31:07,600 republican family if you saw a copy of 4503 02:31:11,349 --> 02:31:09,760 ulysses s grant's autobiography on the 4504 02:31:12,469 --> 02:31:11,359 shelves 4505 02:31:14,550 --> 02:31:12,479 i mean the republicans were the 4506 02:31:15,190 --> 02:31:14,560 anti-slavery party back then okay they 4507 02:31:22,309 --> 02:31:15,200 were 4508 02:31:25,590 --> 02:31:22,319 no things changed you bet but that's how 4509 02:31:27,990 --> 02:31:25,600 it was back in the 19th century and so 4510 02:31:29,110 --> 02:31:28,000 there as everywhere things get flopped 4511 02:31:31,510 --> 02:31:29,120 around 4512 02:31:33,190 --> 02:31:31,520 party chain they change their their in 4513 02:31:34,309 --> 02:31:33,200 you know intentions without changing 4514 02:31:35,270 --> 02:31:34,319 their names 4515 02:31:37,270 --> 02:31:35,280 um 4516 02:31:39,190 --> 02:31:37,280 different ideologies move in 4517 02:31:40,150 --> 02:31:39,200 um 4518 02:31:41,750 --> 02:31:40,160 well for example the reason the 4519 02:31:43,270 --> 02:31:41,760 democrats named the liberal party was in 4520 02:31:46,230 --> 02:31:43,280 1932 4521 02:31:48,309 --> 02:31:46,240 of franklin roosevelt and a group of of 4522 02:31:50,230 --> 02:31:48,319 people basically seized it from 4523 02:31:53,110 --> 02:31:50,240 northeastern democrats basically seeks 4524 02:31:54,630 --> 02:31:53,120 to control the party they teach a coup 4525 02:31:57,110 --> 02:31:54,640 in effect it's pretty much what bernie 4526 02:31:58,469 --> 02:31:57,120 sanders was trying to do um and they 4527 02:32:00,150 --> 02:31:58,479 managed to get control of the party and 4528 02:32:02,230 --> 02:32:00,160 ran fbr into the white house where he 4529 02:32:03,190 --> 02:32:02,240 was for where he he remained for four 4530 02:32:04,230 --> 02:32:03,200 terms 4531 02:32:05,910 --> 02:32:04,240 um 4532 02:32:07,429 --> 02:32:05,920 and completely redefined the democratic 4533 02:32:08,950 --> 02:32:07,439 party in the process of getting rid of a 4534 02:32:10,630 --> 02:32:08,960 lot of the old members 4535 02:32:12,070 --> 02:32:10,640 and so you know 4536 02:32:14,070 --> 02:32:12,080 history complex 4537 02:32:16,710 --> 02:32:14,080 and it's very easy to settle into one 4538 02:32:19,190 --> 02:32:16,720 factor and you know say well this was 4539 02:32:21,270 --> 02:32:19,200 caused by that that was caused by this 4540 02:32:22,830 --> 02:32:21,280 and usually again it it's a good thing 4541 02:32:25,030 --> 02:32:22,840 or it's an ungood 4542 02:32:26,469 --> 02:32:25,040 thing and it's never that simple in the 4543 02:32:28,309 --> 02:32:26,479 real world 4544 02:32:29,910 --> 02:32:28,319 similarly i mean here's here's an 4545 02:32:31,910 --> 02:32:29,920 example from my own experience i live in 4546 02:32:34,070 --> 02:32:31,920 a town right now in the north central 4547 02:32:35,990 --> 02:32:34,080 appalachians it is dirt poor used to be 4548 02:32:38,950 --> 02:32:36,000 a mill town lots of industry all that 4549 02:32:40,309 --> 02:32:38,960 went away in 1970s these days it's got 4550 02:32:42,230 --> 02:32:40,319 like 20 percent of the population lives 4551 02:32:44,790 --> 02:32:42,240 below the poverty line 4552 02:32:48,710 --> 02:32:46,309 one of the really poor neighborhoods is 4553 02:32:51,030 --> 02:32:48,720 directly south of me i i go there all 4554 02:32:52,309 --> 02:32:51,040 the time i walk through it on the way to 4555 02:32:53,910 --> 02:32:52,319 the laundromat on the way to the 4556 02:32:55,510 --> 02:32:53,920 drugstore and various other things 4557 02:32:58,230 --> 02:32:55,520 further down industrial boulevard that i 4558 02:33:00,309 --> 02:32:58,240 go to so i'm you know i'm known people 4559 02:33:01,429 --> 02:33:00,319 know who i am i know who they are um 4560 02:33:03,030 --> 02:33:01,439 it's a very important but it's a 4561 02:33:04,630 --> 02:33:03,040 mixed-race neighborhood by which i don't 4562 02:33:06,870 --> 02:33:04,640 just mean that here's why people hear 4563 02:33:08,070 --> 02:33:06,880 black people i mean that on a summer 4564 02:33:09,590 --> 02:33:08,080 evening when people sitting on the 4565 02:33:11,110 --> 02:33:09,600 porches the people who are sitting on 4566 02:33:12,630 --> 02:33:11,120 any given porch are not all the same 4567 02:33:14,230 --> 02:33:12,640 skin color 4568 02:33:16,070 --> 02:33:14,240 and that's actually increasingly common 4569 02:33:17,349 --> 02:33:16,080 in america these days among the poor 4570 02:33:19,429 --> 02:33:17,359 it's in the middle class of the color 4571 02:33:20,550 --> 02:33:19,439 line it's fairly strong 4572 02:33:24,469 --> 02:33:20,560 so 4573 02:33:26,389 --> 02:33:24,479 this really poor 4574 02:33:27,670 --> 02:33:26,399 really dirt poor 4575 02:33:29,670 --> 02:33:27,680 neighborhood 4576 02:33:32,469 --> 02:33:29,680 which has a church every three blocks 4577 02:33:33,429 --> 02:33:32,479 and an abandoned house every three doors 4578 02:33:36,309 --> 02:33:33,439 okay 4579 02:33:38,230 --> 02:33:36,319 it's you know it is a picture of 4580 02:33:40,469 --> 02:33:38,240 american poverty 4581 02:33:41,990 --> 02:33:40,479 it is as i said very much racially you 4582 02:33:44,469 --> 02:33:42,000 see a lot of mixed-race children running 4583 02:33:46,150 --> 02:33:44,479 around people people marry and this kind 4584 02:33:48,469 --> 02:33:46,160 of stuff that was the first neighborhood 4585 02:33:50,469 --> 02:33:48,479 in town to put up trump signs it put up 4586 02:33:51,590 --> 02:33:50,479 more of them than any other neighborhood 4587 02:33:53,510 --> 02:33:51,600 in town 4588 02:33:55,990 --> 02:33:53,520 all of the

02:48:18,560 believe the exact opposite of what is 5024 02:48:22,870 --> 02:48:20,560 actually true in this situation your 5025 02:48:25,510 --> 02:48:22,880 ability to look at the conspiracy and 5026 02:48:27,190 --> 02:48:25,520 question everything has made you believe 5027 02:48:28,830 --> 02:48:27,200 the lie 5028 02:48:31,750 --> 02:48:28,840 and because of 5029 02:48:33,670 --> 02:48:31,760 that yeah 5030 02:48:36,070 --> 02:48:33,680 excessive the the conspiracy the 5031 02:48:38,630 --> 02:48:36,080 conspiratorial mind 5032 02:48:40,389 --> 02:48:38,640 is a form of gulf ability it's just a 5033 02:48:42,950 --> 02:48:40,399 gullibility to the opposite of what 5034 02:48:44,469 --> 02:48:42,960 these what the conventional wisdom is 5035 02:48:46,790 --> 02:48:44,479 and so yeah you can 5036 02:48:48,230 --> 02:48:46,800 you can sell anything as long as you 5037 02:48:49,830 --> 02:48:48,240 convince them that somebody else is 5038 02:48:54,870 --> 02:48:49,840 saying the opposite somebody with an 5039 02:48:58,870 --> 02:48:57,349 and it's like the the people who 5040 02:49:00,230 --> 02:48:58,880 needed the help and just voted for 5041 02:49:01,910 --> 02:49:00,240

02:49:33,279 that this is a constitution that's been 5062 02:49:37,110 --> 02:49:35,920 used the longest straight from beginning 5063 02:49:39,349 --> 02:49:37,120 to now 5064 02:49:41,269 --> 02:49:39,359 compared to any other country out there 5065 02:49:42,790 --> 02:49:41,279 your rights and freedoms 5066 02:49:44,550 --> 02:49:42,800 it would be it would be nice it would be 5067 02:49:46,309 --> 02:49:44,560 nice if we still followed it well i i 5068 02:49:47,110 --> 02:49:46,319 know but the essential the essential 5069 02:49:48,790 --> 02:49:47,120 part 5070 02:49:50,469 --> 02:49:48,800 it's a really good constitution yeah 5071 02:49:52,389 --> 02:49:50,479 very interesting 5072 02:49:53,830 --> 02:49:52,399 it is at least still theoretically in 5073 02:49:54,950 --> 02:49:53,840 place in the theoretical okay it's 5074 02:49:56,870 --> 02:49:54,960 theoretically in place but the 5075 02:49:57,830 --> 02:49:56,880 constitution has been theoretically in 5076 02:49:59,030 --> 02:49:57,840 place 5077 02:50:01,110 --> 02:49:59,040 for 5078 02:50:03,190 --> 02:50:01,120 the longest period of time as any a 5079 02:50:04,870 --> 02:50:03,200 country on the planet right now every 5080 02:50:06,630 --> 02:50:04,880 single other country their constitution 5081 02:50:09,910 --> 02:50:06,640 or bill of rights or what have you 5082 02:50:10,950 --> 02:50:09,920 has not been around as long as america's 5083 02:50:13,030 --> 02:50:10,960 and 5084 02:50:15,910 --> 02:50:13,040 many of them i'm trying to think the 5085 02:50:18,870 --> 02:50:15,920 only i i can think of i can think of one 5086 02:50:20,630 --> 02:50:18,880 one other that actually has had 5087 02:50:21,670 --> 02:50:20,640 in effect its constitution in place a 5088 02:50:22,550 --> 02:50:21,680 little longer and that would be great 5089 02:50:24,469 --> 02:50:22,560 britain 5090 02:50:25,750 --> 02:50:24,479 the magna carta but it was more of a 5091 02:50:27,590 --> 02:50:25,760 concept well i'm thinking no i'm 5092 02:50:29,510 --> 02:50:27,600 thinking specifically the laws that the 5093 02:50:31,269 --> 02:50:29,520 the um whatever you call i forgot the 5094 02:50:34,389 --> 02:50:31,279 name of the act are english listeners 5095 02:50:37,910 --> 02:50:34,399 without know it in 1688 5096 02:50:39,910 --> 02:50:37,920 in 1688 when um william william iii 5097 02:50:42,630 --> 02:50:39,920 became king james ii was kicked out 5098 02:50:45,590 --> 02:50:42,640 william iii came in there was a specific 5099 02:50:48,150 --> 02:50:45,600 series of legal acts by parliament which 5100 02:50:49,990 --> 02:50:48,160 basically have shaped the relationship 5101 02:50:53,349 --> 02:50:50,000 between the king and parliament ever 5102 02:50:55,349 --> 02:50:53,359 since and so i believe the 1688 5103 02:50:56,950 --> 02:50:55,359 in effect it i mean england has an 5104 02:50:58,870 --> 02:50:56,960 unwritten constitution but those laws 5105 02:51:01,510 --> 02:50:58,880 basically function as 5106 02:51:03,429 --> 02:51:01,520 as the anchor for it and i think that if 5107 02:51:04,389 --> 02:51:03,439 you talk to constitutional law people 5108 02:51:06,150 --> 02:51:04,399 they'll say 5109 02:51:07,670 --> 02:51:06,160 that great britain is the one country in 5110 02:51:10,469 --> 02:51:07,680 the world because they theirs goes to 5111 02:51:11,590 --> 02:51:10,479 1688 and ours goes to 1782. 5112 02:51:13,429 --> 02:51:11,600 so they have 5113 02:51:17,030 --> 02:51:13,439 they have a little ahead of us 5114 02:51:18,630 --> 02:51:17,040 but that's it that's literally that's it 5115 02:51:20,870 --> 02:51:18,640 see if i get this down here so the bill 5116 02:51:22,550 --> 02:51:20,880 of rights is 1689 it's listed and this 5117 02:51:24,070 --> 02:51:22,560 is an act of parliament 5118 02:51:25,670 --> 02:51:24,080 yeah deals of constitutional matters set 5119 02:51:27,429 --> 02:51:25,680 out in certain basic civil rights passed 5120 02:51:30,150 --> 02:51:27,439 and the 16th of december 5121 02:51:32,230 --> 02:51:30,160 1689 it is a restatement of statutory 5122 02:51:35,190 --> 02:51:32,240 form declaration of rights so 5123 02:51:36,790 --> 02:51:35,200 theoretically yes um yeah so yeah you're 5124 02:51:38,630 --> 02:51:36,800 right on that 5125 02:51:40,710 --> 02:51:38,640 but but still 5126 02:51:42,389 --> 02:51:40,720 that's one of two and you know both 5127 02:51:43,670 --> 02:51:42,399 countries both countries have their 5128 02:51:45,510 --> 02:51:43,680 problems but both of them have had 5129 02:51:47,910 --> 02:51:45,520 essentially stable governmental systems 5130 02:51:49,590 --> 02:51:47,920 for all these years and most of the 5131 02:51:50,550 --> 02:51:49,600 democracies on the planet copy one or 5132 02:51:51,670 --> 02:51:50,560 the other 5133 02:51:53,910 --> 02:51:51,680 essentially 5134 02:51:54,870 --> 02:51:53,920 so yeah 5135 02:51:56,230 --> 02:51:54,880 and i'm trying to think where i was 5136 02:51:58,389 --> 02:51:56,240 going with that 5137 02:51:59,750 --> 02:51:58,399 but essentially it's like 5138 02:52:01,990 --> 02:51:59,760 you were talking about how people who 5139 02:52:03,670 --> 02:52:02,000 want people were wanting to america to 5140 02:52:06,870 --> 02:52:03,680 the spirit to make america great again 5141 02:52:08,389 --> 02:52:06,880 well the thing the spirit of america is 5142 02:52:09,990 --> 02:52:08,399 it's it has been a shining beacon in the 5143 02:52:12,389 --> 02:52:10,000 western world and all the world for a 5144 02:52:13,910 --> 02:52:12,399 very long time and it's for a reason i 5145 02:52:15,190 --> 02:52:13,920 guess americans they they're supposed to 5146 02:52:16,790 --> 02:52:15,200 walk like they're supposed to they're 5147 02:52:17,910 --> 02:52:16,800 supposed to walk taller their balls are 5148 02:52:19,750 --> 02:52:17,920 supposed to be bigger their hats are 5149 02:52:21,429 --> 02:52:19,760 supposed to be more ostentatious their 5150 02:52:22,790 --> 02:52:21,439 cars are supposed to be louder and 5151 02:52:25,750 --> 02:52:22,800 they're supposed to be the smartest 5152 02:52:27,990 --> 02:52:25,760 fastest strongest and most amazing you 5153 02:52:30,790 --> 02:52:28,000 know that they give the most and they 5154 02:52:32,870 --> 02:52:30,800 just they take no [\h__\h] they they they 5155 02:52:34,710 --> 02:52:32,880 you know they they put the the bad the 5156 02:52:36,230 --> 02:52:34,720 like they're the good guys the good guys 5157 02:52:37,670 --> 02:52:36,240 win and the bad guys lose that is the 5158 02:52:38,630 --> 02:52:37,680 essential that that's the essential 5159 02:52:39,510 --> 02:52:38,640 theme 5160 02:52:44,950 --> 02:52:39,520 and 5161 02:52:47,030 --> 02:52:44,960 you are so 5162 02:52:48,389 --> 02:52:47,040 the idea of that 5163 02:52:50,950 --> 02:52:48,399 things have changed 5164 02:52:52,469 --> 02:52:50,960 and understanding that there are the 5165 02:52:55,190 --> 02:52:52,479 technology has changed the way the world 5166 02:52:56,469 --> 02:52:55,200 works has changed and our enemies are 5167 02:52:58,070 --> 02:52:56,479 the people who 5168 02:52:58,950 --> 02:52:58,080 have been against us for a very long 5169 02:53:00,550 --> 02:52:58,960 time 5170 02:53:01,830 --> 02:53:00,560 very you know you

if you've got the power to do it you'll 5266 02:55:58,469 --> 02:55:57,040 be able to do it if you've ever let the 5267 02:56:00,150 --> 02:55:58,479 arrow into somebody's tires if you've 5268 02:56:01,429 --> 02:56:00,160 ever spilled somebody's drink if you've 5269 02:56:03,429 --> 02:56:01,439 ever just looked at somebody bad if you 5270 02:56:04,550 --> 02:56:03,439 ever close the door on somebody on the 5271 02:56:05,590 --> 02:56:04,560 bus 5272 02:56:06,710 --> 02:56:05,600 because you didn't like them or they 5273 02:56:08,469 --> 02:56:06,720 pissed you off if they scratched your 5274 02:56:09,910 --> 02:56:08,479 car you basically did the exact same 5275 02:56:11,750 --> 02:56:09,920 thing now scale that up like a hundred 5276 02:56:13,590 --> 02:56:11,760 trillion times that's the that's the 5277 02:56:15,030 --> 02:56:13,600 game you're dealing with so you think 5278 02:56:16,309 --> 02:56:15,040 it's not possible oh hell yeah it's 5279 02:56:17,750 --> 02:56:16,319 possible the only difference is the 5280 02:56:20,630 --> 02:56:17,760 people 5281 02:56:22,710 --> 02:56:20,640 go for it no it's it no it's it's it's 5282 02:56:25,750 --> 02:56:22,720 possible but there's also the simple 5283 02:56:29,830 --> 02:56:28,309 again as i noted um it's not as though 5284 02:56:31,349 --> 02:56:29,840 we have to look for it's not as though 5285 02:56:33,190 --> 02:56:31,359 hillary clinton has to look for to find 5286 02:56:35,990 --> 02:56:33,200 the person who was most responsible for 5287 02:56:39,830 --> 02:56:36,000 her defeat she needs a mirror 5288 02:56:41,750 --> 02:56:39,840 and whatever else was going on again um 5289 02:56:43,590 --> 02:56:41,760 she made the same mistakes in 2016 that 5290 02:56:45,349 --> 02:56:43,600 she made in 2008. 5291 02:56:47,190 --> 02:56:45,359 she still hasn't learned from them no 5292 02:56:51,670 --> 02:56:47,200 because she's um 5293 02:56:55,349 --> 02:56:53,750 i don't and as i've noted i don't think 5294 02:56:56,950 --> 02:56:55,359 any of us will ever know what actually 5295 02:56:59,750 --> 02:56:56,960 happened because it's going to dissolve 5296 02:57:01,750 --> 02:56:59,760 into a into a chorus of competing 5297 02:57:04,230 --> 02:57:01,760 accusations 5298 02:57:05,269 --> 02:57:04,240 and the actual fact of the matter i mean 5299 02:57:08,150 --> 02:57:05,279 there was there was something on the 5300 02:57:09,030 --> 02:57:08,160 onion which is a online humor magazine 5301 02:57:11,670 --> 02:57:09,040 um 5302 02:57:13,910 --> 02:57:11,680 where the fbi had revealed 5303 02:57:15,830 --> 02:57:13,920 they found out that al qaeda had come up 5304 02:57:19,429 --> 02:57:15,840 with sinister new plan to sit back and 5305 02:57:23,750 --> 02:57:20,870 they're ordering lots of popcorn and 5306 02:57:26,150 --> 02:57:23,760 things like that i i tend to think that 5307 02:57:28,230 --> 02:57:26,160 if poutine has a if thousand poutine has 5308 02:57:30,230 --> 02:57:28,240 a serious grudge against the united 5309 02:57:31,830 --> 02:57:30,240 states which he may well 5310 02:57:34,830 --> 02:57:31,840 okay 5311 02:57:37,590 --> 02:57:34,840 he's probably laying in the popcorn 5312 02:57:41,429 --> 02:57:37,600 because i mean especially during this 5313 02:57:44,870 --> 02:57:41,439 last election watching the u.s display 5314 02:57:47,830 --> 02:57:44,880 its its most embarrassing sides to 5315 02:57:50,710 --> 02:57:49,590 and you know knowing that whoever was 5316 02:57:52,710 --> 02:57:50,720 going to win 5317 02:57:54,550 --> 02:57:52,720 was going to end up with a bitterly 5318 02:57:57,110 --> 02:57:54,560 divided country 5319 02:57:59,590 --> 02:57:57,120 um a bitterly divided congress 5320 02:58:01,269 --> 02:57:59,600 a society where 5321 02:58:02,950 --> 02:58:01,279 constructive change is almost impossible 5322 02:58:07,429 --> 02:58:02,960 at this point because every issue 5323 02:58:08,230 --> 02:58:07,439 becomes caught up in these these crazed 5324 02:58:11,190 --> 02:58:08,240 um 5325 02:58:15,110 --> 02:58:11,200 partisan hatreds 5326 02:58:20,710 --> 02:58:17,110 if you know if you know your way around 5327 02:58:22,469 --> 02:58:20,720 the history of how countries fall apart 5328 02:58:24,550 --> 02:58:22,479 you look out the door it's one of those 5329 02:58:27,429 --> 02:58:24,560 things look out the window in the united 5330 02:58:28,309 --> 02:58:27,439 states it's it's a messy situation 5331 02:58:29,750 --> 02:58:28,319 and 5332 02:58:31,510 --> 02:58:29,760 whatever the russians may be doing what 5333 02:58:33,590 --> 02:58:31,520 the chinese may be doing i actually if i 5334 02:58:34,950 --> 02:58:33,600 were looking for somebody to mess with 5335 02:58:36,309 --> 02:58:34,960 the united states i would expect it to 5336 02:58:37,990 --> 02:58:36,319 be china 5337 02:58:39,910 --> 02:58:38,000 um because the chinese also hold grudges 5338 02:58:44,150 --> 02:58:39,920 they hold historical grudges and the 5339 02:58:47,910 --> 02:58:46,150 has some things on it on its record when 5340 02:58:50,150 --> 02:58:47,920 it comes to china 5341 02:58:52,469 --> 02:58:50,160 dating back to dating back to the boxer 5342 02:58:55,030 --> 02:58:52,479 of rebellion beforehand 5343 02:58:57,190 --> 02:58:55,040 and they and the thing is 5344 02:58:59,590 --> 02:58:57,200 in china ever since the revolution 5345 02:59:00,710 --> 02:58:59,600 there's been a lot of fixation which of 5346 02:59:02,389 --> 02:59:00,720 course is very heavily encouraged by 5347 02:59:04,389 --> 02:59:02,399 government propaganda on what they call 5348 02:59:07,030 --> 02:59:04,399 the century of dishonor the period from 5349 02:59:09,750 --> 02:59:07,040 1849 to 1949 5350 02:59:11,429 --> 02:59:09,760 um the whole the opium wars the boxer 5351 02:59:13,269 --> 02:59:11,439 rebellion all of the situations where 5352 02:59:15,590 --> 02:59:13,279 western countries basically carved china 5353 02:59:16,870 --> 02:59:15,600 up into spheres of influence 5354 02:59:19,830 --> 02:59:16,880 not only have they not forgotten that 5355 02:59:21,429 --> 02:59:19,840 they've turned it into a big deal 5356 02:59:24,309 --> 02:59:21,439 and so 5357 02:59:26,230 --> 02:59:24,319 yeah i would i would watch and you know 5358 02:59:28,070 --> 02:59:26,240 the thing is the united states has made 5359 02:59:30,230 --> 02:59:28,080 a lot of enemies 5360 02:59:31,670 --> 02:59:30,240 and those enemies cannot be expected to 5361 02:59:33,429 --> 02:59:31,680 sit back on their hands and just do 5362 02:59:35,510 --> 02:59:33,439 nothing so you know yeah there's there 5363 02:59:36,630 --> 02:59:35,520 will be stuff going on but again oh 5364 02:59:39,349 --> 02:59:36,640 there's also going to be a lot of 5365 02:59:41,030 --> 02:59:39,359 popcorn being popped 5366 02:59:42,870 --> 02:59:41,040 because the united states is doing a 5367 02:59:45,349 --> 02:59:42,880 fine job of driving itself toward 5368 02:59:46,710 --> 02:59:45,359 destruction and it is which is very 5369 02:59:47,990 --> 02:59:46,720 unfortunate 5370 02:59:49,269 --> 02:59:48,000 and it's going to be extremely 5371 02:59:50,630 --> 02:59:49,279 unfortunate for those of us who live 5372 02:59:52,870 --> 02:59:50,640 here and probably very challenging for 5373 02:59:53,990 --> 02:59:52,880 those who live too close such as you 5374 02:59:56,150 --> 02:59:54,000 but 5375 02:59:59,349 --> 02:59:56,160 we'll see where it goes 5376 03:00:01,510 --> 02:59:59,359 okay my main thing now we are yeah we're 5377 03:00:03,030 --> 03:00:01,520 coming to the to the close here but 5378 03:00:04,790 --> 03:00:03,040 there was one production that i made and 5379 03:00:05,510 --> 03:00:04,800 i think i may have made it beforehand 5380 03:00:07,510 --> 03:00:05,520 but 5381 03:00:08,710 --> 03:00:07,520 my prediction was okay you know people 5382 03:00:09,910 --> 03:00:08,720

you will have a civil war it 5386 03:00:16,950 --> 03:00:14,800 will start in 2019. my predict i could 5387 03:00:19,510 --> 03:00:16,960 be wrong i just have a feeling based on 5388 03:00:20,630 --> 03:00:19,520 the current fervor in the media and from 5389 03:00:22,550 --> 03:00:20,640 what i'm seeing on the street like you 5390 03:00:24,309 --> 03:00:22,560 and i are talking about this stuff and 5391 03:00:25,750 --> 03:00:24,319 it concerns us like you're you're 5392 03:00:27,269 --> 03:00:25,760 american you're 5393 03:00:29,429 --> 03:00:27,279 you know you deal with this this stuff 5394 03:00:31,269 --> 03:00:29,439 every day i'm a canadian i have like it 5395 03:00:32,950 --> 03:00:31,279 affects me on an economic level and 5396 03:00:34,469 --> 03:00:32,960 somewhat of a political level but i'm 5397 03:00:35,750 --> 03:00:34,479 not directly in the states and i it 5398 03:00:37,429 --> 03:00:35,760 affects me 5399 03:00:39,110 --> 03:00:37,439 from from a psychological level so you 5400 03:00:40,790 --> 03:00:39,120 imagine somebody who's 5401 03:00:42,230 --> 03:00:40,800 you know a completely ardent trump 5402 03:00:44,870 --> 03:00:42,240 supporter who thinks the deep state's 5403 03:00:46,150 --> 03:00:44,880 out to get them and all this and that 5404 03:00:47,429 --> 03:00:46,160 well of course you know you're going to 5405 03:00:48,710 --> 03:00:47,439 freak out a little bit same thing with 5406 03:00:50,230 --> 03:00:48,720 the democrats when you start getting 5407 03:00:51,349 --> 03:00:50,240 attacked it's like oh [\h__\h] i guess those 5408 03:00:52,389 --> 03:00:51,359 gun rights probably would have helped 5409 03:00:53,750 --> 03:00:52,399 you out huh 5410 03:00:55,349 --> 03:00:53,760 um 5411 03:00:57,190 --> 03:00:55,359 so there's there might be some [\h__\h] that 5412 03:00:59,110 --> 03:00:57,200 goes down and it might be 5413 03:01:01,429 --> 03:00:59,120 whether and i think that it is going to 5414 03:01:03,830 --> 03:01:01,439 be orchestrated and if trump is still in 5415 03:01:05,190 --> 03:01:03,840 power if he does get impeached 5416 03:01:07,830 --> 03:01:05,200 the civil war will be based around the 5417 03:01:09,030 --> 03:01:07,840 fact that he will stay in power 5418 03:01:10,230 --> 03:01:09,040 and basically say like you're going to 5419 03:01:11,510 --> 03:01:10,240 impeach me or try to remove me i will 5420 03:01:14,150 --> 03:01:11,520 [\h__\h] you i'm staying in here i'm calling 5421 03:01:14,950 --> 03:01:14,160 in the rv like army here's martial law 5422 03:01:16,870 --> 03:01:14,960 you know 5423 03:01:18,230 --> 03:01:16,880 deal with it 5424 03:01:19,510 --> 03:01:18,240 it's a possibility 5425 03:01:21,590 --> 03:01:19,520 it's the timings i'm going to make a 5426 03:01:23,030 --> 03:01:21,600 competing prediction go for it 5427 03:01:24,230 --> 03:01:23,040 i'm going to make a competing production 5428 03:01:26,230 --> 03:01:24,240 i'm going to predict what's going to 5429 03:01:29,670 --> 03:01:26,240 happen is that 5430 03:01:33,030 --> 03:01:29,680 the media uproar and all the yelling is 5431 03:01:35,110 --> 03:01:33,040 entirely confined to 5432 03:01:36,710 --> 03:01:35,120 the chattering classes the the the 5433 03:01:38,710 --> 03:01:36,720 middle and upper middle classes the 5434 03:01:39,670 --> 03:01:38,720 people who think their opinions matter 5435 03:01:41,990 --> 03:01:39,680 more 5436 03:01:44,230 --> 03:01:42,000 the vast majority of americans 5437 03:01:45,830 --> 03:01:44,240 uh or the certainly enough of a majority 5438 03:01:47,110 --> 03:01:45,840 not the vast majority but a significant 5439 03:01:48,950 --> 03:01:47,120 majority of americans are going to 5440 03:01:52,070 --> 03:01:48,960 continue to support trump 5441 03:01:56,150 --> 03:01:54,790 20 and 20 in the 2018 elections 5442 03:01:58,469 --> 03:01:56,160 the republicans are going to hold their 5443 03:02:02,389 --> 03:01:58,479 own and in 2020 trump's going to be 5444 03:02:05,349 --> 03:02:02,399 re-elected by a significant majority 5445 03:02:08,469 --> 03:02:05,359 and it is going to be a total and the 5446 03:02:09,910 --> 03:02:08,479 the entire left and the center and the 5447 03:02:12,950 --> 03:02:09,920 mainstream republicans the whole 5448 03:02:15,349 --> 03:02:12,960 political establishment in 2010 in 2020 5449 03:02:18,790 --> 03:02:15,359 november 2020 is going to melt 5450 03:02:22,389 --> 03:02:18,800 down to an extent that has not been seen 5451 03:02:23,830 --> 03:02:22,399 since fdr won re-election in 1936 also 5452 03:02:25,670 --> 03:02:23,840 in the teeth of opposition from the 5453 03:02:27,429 --> 03:02:25,680 entire political class 5454 03:02:29,910 --> 03:02:27,439 that's i can't think of any other way in 5455 03:02:30,950 --> 03:02:29,920 which i would compare fdr and donald 5456 03:02:32,870 --> 03:02:30,960 trump 5457 03:02:35,190 --> 03:02:32,880 but 5458 03:02:36,630 --> 03:02:35,200 i think what's going on is a lot of 5459 03:02:39,269 --> 03:02:36,640 what's going on in the media and so on 5460 03:02:43,030 --> 03:02:39,279 it exists in an echo chamber 5461 03:02:46,469 --> 03:02:43,040 people who think that their opinions 5462 03:02:49,110 --> 03:02:46,479 matter and they just as 5463 03:02:50,790 --> 03:02:49,120 everyone i mean you realize that no 5464 03:02:54,070 --> 03:02:50,800 american 5465 03:02:56,150 --> 03:02:54,080 newspaper endorsed donald trump 5466 03:02:57,670 --> 03:02:56,160 all of them 5467 03:02:58,790 --> 03:02:57,680 endorsed either hillary or refused to 5468 03:03:00,150 --> 03:02:58,800 make an endorsement actually i think 5469 03:03:01,750 --> 03:03:00,160 there was one that enforced endorsed the 5470 03:03:04,710 --> 03:03:01,760 libertarian candidate none of them had 5471 03:03:05,910 --> 03:03:04,720 worked on endorse donald trump and 81 5472 03:03:07,990 --> 03:03:05,920 okay 5473 03:03:09,670 --> 03:03:08,000 in the same way basically there's an 5474 03:03:11,030 --> 03:03:09,680 echo chamber effect going on where all 5475 03:03:13,590 --> 03:03:11,040 the people who think their opinions 5476 03:03:14,550 --> 03:03:13,600 matter are united in their denunciation 5477 03:03:15,990 --> 03:03:14,560 of donald trump they're going to 5478 03:03:18,070 --> 03:03:16,000 criticize us they're going to criticize 5479 03:03:19,320 --> 03:03:18,080 that 5480 03:03:21,030 --> 03:03:19,330 and 5481 03:03:24,830 --> 03:03:21,040 [Applause] 5482 03:03:29,030 --> 03:03:27,670 care and so i think did this by my 5483 03:03:30,389 --> 03:03:29,040 prediction and of course i may be wrong 5484 03:03:32,309 --> 03:03:30,399 just as i could have been you know when 5485 03:03:34,710 --> 03:03:32,319 i made my prediction in january of 2016 5486 03:03:36,710 --> 03:03:34,720 about trump's election i i said that i 5487 03:03:39,670 --> 03:03:36,720 could be wrong here i may be wrong but 5488 03:03:40,630 --> 03:03:39,680 my my working guess at this point is 5489 03:03:43,030 --> 03:03:40,640 that the republicans are going to 5490 03:03:45,030 --> 03:03:43,040 basically in 2018 they're going to hold 5491 03:03:47,670 --> 03:03:45,040 on to their current majorities in in 5492 03:03:49,429 --> 03:03:47,680 congress and in 2020 trump will 5493 03:03:51,110 --> 03:03:49,439 re-election will win re-election by a 5494 03:03:52,950 --> 03:03:51,120 significant margin 5495 03:03:55,510 --> 03:03:52,960 i don't think it'll be a landslide but i 5496 03:03:57,110 --> 03:03:55,520 think it'll be a significant margin 5497 03:03:58,550 --> 03:03:57,120 and then 5498 03:04:00,469 --> 03:03:58,560 things are going to get again we're 5499 03:04:01,990 --> 03:04:00,479 going to see a world-class screeching 5500 03:04:05,429 --> 03:04:02,000 meltdown and 5501 03:04:09,510 --> 03:04:07,590 okay so at least and you're going on 5502 03:04:11,510 --> 03:04:09,520 record here as stating that trump i know 5503 03:04:13,590 --> 03:04:11,520 i'm going i'm going on the record my 5504 03:04:15,110 --> 03:04:13,600 yeah that's i'm going on the record here 5505 03:04:17,269 --> 03:04:15,120 that's my prediction at this point 5506 03:04:18,389 --> 03:04:17,279 things could change but as we're now 5507 03:04:21,429 --> 03:04:18,399 going 5508 03:04:22,389 --> 03:04:21,439 you know i'm enough of a cynic to be 5509 03:04:24,309 --> 03:04:22,399 able to say it's like yeah i can see 5510 03:04:26,389 --> 03:04:24,319 that [\h__\h] happening and 5511 03:04:28,469 --> 03:04:26,399 i'll laugh it'll suck 5512 03:04:29,750 --> 03:04:28,479 and some some comedians say 5513 03:04:31,830 --> 03:04:29,760 the person who will benefit the most 5514 03:04:34,950 --> 03:04:31,840 from this apparently so far will be 5515 03:04:36,630 --> 03:04:34,960 colbert because his ratings have gone so 5516 03:04:38,389 --> 03:04:36,640 far up 5517 03:04:43,590 --> 03:04:38,399 generally speaking 5518 03:04:45,990 --> 03:04:43,600 been an absolute godsend to come to to 5519 03:04:47,750 --> 03:04:46,000 comedians and to the media 5520 03:04:49,030 --> 03:04:47,760 because every time he opens his mouth he 5521 03:04:51,030 --> 03:04:49,040 says something that deserves a news 5522 03:04:53,590 --> 03:04:51,040 story exactly because his bol as i said 5523 03:04:55,670 --> 03:04:53,600 he's an idiot of course 5524 03:04:56,870 --> 03:04:55,680 yeah you know he did but the the thing 5525 03:04:58,469 --> 03:04:56,880 is 5526 03:05:01,110 --> 03:04:58,479 there are there have been times i mean 5527 03:05:02,950 --> 03:05:01,120 like big the whole bigly business 5528 03:05:04,630 --> 03:05:02,960 i honestly thought at several points 5529 03:05:06,710 --> 03:05:04,640 during the campaign that he was 5530 03:05:09,429 --> 03:05:06,720 deliberately saying things to try to 5531 03:05:11,030 --> 03:05:09,439 whip up the mainstream media into a 5532 03:05:13,429 --> 03:05:11,040 cluckfest 5533 03:05:15,429 --> 03:05:13,439 because that would make be i mean the 5534 03:05:17,510 --> 03:05:15,439 thing is the me the mass media in the 5535 03:05:19,030 --> 03:05:17,520 united states in terms of in their the 5536 03:05:21,830 --> 03:05:19,040 general population 5537 03:05:22,870 --> 03:05:21,840 um considers the mass media to be 5538 03:05:24,150 --> 03:05:22,880 um 5539 03:05:26,309 --> 03:05:24,160 morally 5540 03:05:28,469 --> 03:05:26,319 several notches below street prostitutes 5541 03:05:30,230 --> 03:05:28,479 and drug dealers 5542 03:05:32,950 --> 03:05:30,240 nobody trusts them and for very good 5543 03:05:34,070 --> 03:05:32,960 reason 5544 03:05:36,790 --> 03:05:34,080 when i was 5545 03:05:39,190 --> 03:05:36,800 took russian took the russian language 5546 03:05:41,190 --> 03:05:39,200 we had we actually had in seattle 5547 03:05:42,469 --> 03:05:41,200 which is where i grew up we had russian 5548 03:05:44,150 --> 03:05:42,479 classes in the high school that i went 5549 03:05:46,469 --> 03:05:44,160 to and so i studied russian every so 5550 03:05:49,429 --> 03:05:46,479 often we would get caught when in third 5551 03:05:51,190 --> 03:05:49,439 year we would get copies of pravda okay 5552 03:05:52,389 --> 03:05:51,200 and this is during the during the during 5553 03:05:53,750 --> 03:05:52,399 the soviet union this kind of stuff we 5554 03:05:55,830 --> 03:05:53,760 get these copies of prophet we go 5555 03:06:00,230 --> 03:05:55,840 through the prophet we pick we you know 5556 03:06:02,469 --> 03:06:00,240 read these stories and they were absurd 5557 03:06:04,790 --> 03:06:02,479 you know a glorious you know glorious on 5558 03:06:06,309 --> 03:06:04,800 people's republic of afghanistan you 5559 03:06:09,269 --> 03:06:06,319 know 5560 03:06:12,870 --> 03:06:09,279 these completely ridiculous political 5561 03:06:15,030 --> 03:06:12,880 propaganda masquerading news okay 5562 03:06:16,870 --> 03:06:15,040 if i go out and pick up um the the 5563 03:06:17,830 --> 03:06:16,880 washington post 5564 03:06:19,990 --> 03:06:17,840 right now 5565 03:06:23,190 --> 03:06:20,000 i see identical stories 5566 03:06:25,910 --> 03:06:23,200 just as slanted just as absurd 5567 03:06:27,590 --> 03:06:25,920 just as disconnected from people's lives 5568 03:06:28,790 --> 03:06:27,600 i mean there are people i'm not the only 5569 03:06:30,230 --> 03:06:28,800 one who's saying this 5570 03:06:32,309 --> 03:06:30,240 these days the wapo is being called 5571 03:06:34,150 --> 03:06:32,319 pravda on the potomac by a significant 5572 03:06:34,950 --> 03:06:34,160 number of people and for good reason and 5573 03:06:35,990 --> 03:06:34,960 i've heard the same thing about 5574 03:06:37,830 --> 03:06:36,000 breitbart i've heard the same thing 5575 03:06:39,750 --> 03:06:37,840 about fox news it's 5576 03:06:40,469 --> 03:06:39,760 exactly and the thing is that that's the 5577 03:06:42,309 --> 03:06:40,479 thing 5578 03:06:44,070 --> 03:06:42,319 all of our news media not just the left 5579 03:06:46,309 --> 03:06:44,080 stuff the left the right the center of 5580 03:06:48,150 --> 03:06:46,319 the whole nine yards it's all become 5581 03:06:50,550 --> 03:06:48,160 this sort of brain dead absurdist 5582 03:06:54,230 --> 03:06:50,560 propaganda 5583 03:06:56,950 --> 03:06:54,240 and so most people no longer take their 5584 03:06:58,230 --> 03:06:56,960 opinions from the media if anything they 5585 03:07:00,309 --> 03:06:58,240 look at what the media is saying they 5586 03:07:01,990 --> 03:07:00,319 believe something else 5587 03:07:03,750 --> 03:07:02,000 and so again all of this media 5588 03:07:05,830 --> 03:07:03,760 screeching about donald trump may 5589 03:07:07,190 --> 03:07:05,840 actually strengthen him 5590 03:07:08,710 --> 03:07:07,200 because people 5591 03:07:10,230 --> 03:07:08,720 instinctively distrust the media this 5592 03:07:11,830 --> 03:07:10,240 but they know they're being lied to 5593 03:07:13,349 --> 03:07:11,840 they're being lied to by the breitbart 5594 03:07:15,269 --> 03:07:13,359 and fox news they're being lied to by 5595 03:07:18,550 --> 03:07:15,279 the wapo in the new york times they're 5596 03:07:20,389 --> 03:07:18,560 being lied to by the entire industry 5597 03:07:22,389 --> 03:07:20,399 because i mean the american news media 5598 03:07:24,950 --> 03:07:22,399 is there to sell soap it's not there to 5599 03:07:26,950 --> 03:07:24,960 communicate facts 5600 03:07:27,750 --> 03:07:26,960 i know i've read the book 5601 03:07:29,269 --> 03:07:27,760 um 5602 03:07:30,950 --> 03:07:29,279 but it's it was part it was part of our 5603 03:07:34,550 --> 03:07:30,960 like advertising 5604 03:07:36,950 --> 03:07:34,560 first year of college 5605 03:07:38,309 --> 03:07:36,960 was the history of advertising and a lot 5606 03:07:40,070 --> 03:07:38,319 of it was okay how do you sell this soap 5607 03:07:41,750 --> 03:07:40,080 like palm olive it was it's palm and 5608 03:07:43,349 --> 03:07:41,760 olive okay well you call it palm olive 5609 03:07:45,110 --> 03:07:43,359 and you want to your hands feel 5610 03:07:47,349 --> 03:07:45,120 beautiful afterwards they didn't focus 5611 03:07:49,670 --> 03:07:47,359 on the fact that it made the dishes 5612 03:07:52,230 --> 03:07:49,680 look good no they they create they 5613 03:07:55,110 --> 03:07:52,240 created some kind of some kind of 5614 03:07:57,269 --> 03:07:55,120 imaginary linkage between the product 5615 03:08:00,230 --> 03:07:57,279 and a desire 5616 03:08:01,830 --> 03:08:00,240 and and just and hammered on that 5617 03:08:03,429 --> 03:08:01,840 even in the most absurd ways it didn't 5618 03:08:05,590 --> 03:08:03,439 matter it's magic 5619 03:08:08,230 --> 03:08:05,600 um johann koliano 5620 03:08:10,150 --> 03:08:08,240 who is a brilliant romanian student of a 5621 03:08:12,070 --> 03:08:10,160 scholar of magical writings who 5622 03:08:13,910 --> 03:08:12,080 long complex story there he wrote a book 5623 03:08:15,990 --> 03:08:13,920 called um 5624 03:08:17,990 --> 03:08:16,000 eros and magic in the renaissance 5625 03:08:19,510 --> 03:08:18,000 and one of the things he argued in this 5626 03:08:22,389 --> 03:08:19,520 book is that modern advertising is a 5627 03:08:24,070 --> 03:08:22,399 debased form of magic 5628 03:08:25,510 --> 03:08:24,080 there must be some go it must be why i'm 5629 03:08:27,590 --> 03:08:25,520 so good at it then 5630 03:08:29,269 --> 03:08:27,600 well there we go yeah you see 5631 03:08:31,910 --> 03:08:29,279 because advertising is again is 5632 03:08:34,550 --> 03:08:31,920 basically targeting people's 5633 03:08:35,670 --> 03:08:34,560 irrational desires linking products or 5634 03:08:37,910 --> 03:08:35,680 services or whatever you're trying to 5635 03:08:40,710 --> 03:08:37,920 advertise to that desire in a 5636 03:08:42,469 --> 03:08:40,720 non-rational linkage 5637 03:08:44,309 --> 03:08:42,479 so that people end up with this bizarre 5638 03:08:45,990 --> 03:08:44,319 notion they can achieve happiness by 5639 03:08:46,870 --> 03:08:46,000 guzzling fizzy brown sugar water or 5640 03:08:49,510 --> 03:08:46,880 something 5641 03:08:51,590 --> 03:08:49,520 well even even then it's people will 5642 03:08:53,670 --> 03:08:51,600 they will run away from fear more than 5643 03:08:55,830 --> 03:08:53,680 they will go towards pleasure 5644 03:08:57,349 --> 03:08:55,840 unless it is a fantasy which then they 5645 03:08:59,990 --> 03:08:57,359 will run towards pleasure and away from 5646 03:09:02,309 --> 03:09:00,000 fear you use yeah exactly 5647 03:09:04,150 --> 03:09:02,319 advertising luxury products take every 5648 03:09:06,070 --> 03:09:04,160 single uh marketing and advertising 5649 03:09:07,429 --> 03:09:06,080 principle you will ever learn toss it 5650 03:09:09,349 --> 03:09:07,439 right out the window completely 5651 03:09:11,750 --> 03:09:09,359 different ball game because 5652 03:09:16,469 --> 03:09:15,349 yeah and so but but it's it's all 5653 03:09:18,630 --> 03:09:16,479 um 5654 03:09:20,550 --> 03:09:18,640 it's a it's a manipulative form of magic 5655 03:09:21,750 --> 03:09:20,560 it's a form of magic that is not you 5656 03:09:23,110 --> 03:09:21,760 know i was talking earlier about 5657 03:09:23,990 --> 03:09:23,120 changing yourself rather than changing 5658 03:09:25,910 --> 03:09:24,000 the world 5659 03:09:27,990 --> 03:09:25,920 advertising isn't designed to make 5660 03:09:30,389 --> 03:09:28,000 people not change themselves 5661 03:09:32,150 --> 03:09:30,399 it's designed to make people want 5662 03:09:33,510 --> 03:09:32,160 something outside themselves rather than 5663 03:09:34,630 --> 03:09:33,520 paying attention to the sources of their 5664 03:09:36,950 --> 03:09:34,640 power and their happiness within 5665 03:09:39,110 --> 03:09:36,960 themselves and so to a certain extent 5666 03:09:40,230 --> 03:09:39,120 evil magic 5667 03:09:42,790 --> 03:09:40,240 now i understand why people hate 5668 03:09:44,469 --> 03:09:42,800 advertising so much i'm like 5669 03:09:45,750 --> 03:09:44,479 and deservedly it's manipulative it's an 5670 03:09:46,870 --> 03:09:45,760 attempt to control them well you're 5671 03:09:49,030 --> 03:09:46,880 you're you're 5672 03:09:50,309 --> 03:09:49,040 you're changing behavior and i i i well 5673 03:09:52,150 --> 03:09:50,319 exactly 5674 03:09:54,550 --> 03:09:52,160 when i was in college i actually 5675 03:09:56,710 --> 03:09:54,560 wrote a but when i founded my first 5676 03:09:58,469 --> 03:09:56,720 agency and i did it in uh 5677 03:10:00,630 --> 03:09:58,479 second semester first year 5678 03:10:01,910 --> 03:10:00,640 and i said okay well i didn't like 5679 03:10:03,349 --> 03:10:01,920 anything that was going on look at all 5680 03:10:05,030 --> 03:10:03,359 the advertisers that were out there just 5681 03:10:06,710 --> 03:10:05,040 like i can do better than you because 5682 03:10:09,269 --> 03:10:06,720 especially in my city i love ottawa to 5683 03:10:10,790 --> 03:10:09,279 death and i'm

03:10:16,080 advertising agencies here in ottawa 5687 03:10:19,190 --> 03:10:16,880 if 5688 03:10:21,670 --> 03:10:19,200 i walk in there it's like 5689 03:10:23,830 --> 03:10:21,680 like you're you

hippocratic oath for 5698 03:10:41,910 --> 03:10:40,560 advertising that essentially would like 5699 03:10:43,590 --> 03:10:41,920 if you're going to use advertising use 5700 03:10:45,429 --> 03:10:43,600 it for the positive benefits and here's 5701 03:10:47,830 --> 03:10:45,439 a positive system to be able to use it 5702 03:10:50,230 --> 03:10:47,840 where you go towards like for instance 5703 03:10:51,349 --> 03:10:50,240 the idea of a scantily clad women to 5704 03:10:53,429 --> 03:10:51,359 sell beer 5705 03:10:55,030 --> 03:10:53,439 or what we have here like canadian tire 5706 03:10:56,469 --> 03:10:55,040 which is like the canadian or the 5707 03:10:58,469 --> 03:10:56,479 american 5708 03:11:01,190 --> 03:10:58,479 well like what 5709 03:11:02,550 --> 03:11:01,200 i don't think you have in america but 5710 03:11:04,230 --> 03:11:02,560 a big tire 5711 03:11:05,750 --> 03:11:04,240 it's like walmart here in canada and 5712 03:11:07,269 --> 03:11:05,760 more of a canadian theme they have this 5713 03:11:10,230 --> 03:11:07,279 entire campaign for a number of years 5714 03:11:12,870 --> 03:11:10,240 they they stopped doing it now thank god 5715 03:11:14,550 --> 03:11:12,880 where essentially the like the and it 5716 03:11:17,110 --> 03:11:14,560 sort of it went with the whole everybody 5717 03:11:19,190 --> 03:11:17,120 loves raymond trend where the husband 5718 03:11:20,950 --> 03:11:19,200 and the man was a complete [\h__\h] idiot 5719 03:11:22,469 --> 03:11:20,960 couldn't do anything goddamn right and 5720 03:11:25,349 --> 03:11:22,479 the wife was always right and it's like 5721 03:11:27,110 --> 03:11:25,359 not only was was she right she's like 5722 03:11:29,190 --> 03:11:27,120 would make fun of him because he is 5723 03:11:30,950 --> 03:11:29,200 wrong for making that choice and 5724 03:11:32,309 --> 03:11:30,960 obviously she knows right and anything 5725 03:11:34,230 --> 03:11:32,319 he could do and you know that that was 5726 03:11:36,230 --> 03:11:34,240 that essential thing so it's like okay 5727 03:11:38,790 --> 03:11:36,240 don't like stop with all this gender 5728 03:11:39,990 --> 03:11:38,800 like division [\h__\h] go towards the 5729 03:11:41,429 --> 03:11:40,000 product look at the product what is the 5730 03:11:42,790 --> 03:11:41,439 benefit that makes your life better 5731 03:11:45,190 --> 03:11:42,800 focus on the positives and how it will 5732 03:11:47,830 --> 03:11:45,200 make your life better that's it don't 5733 03:11:49,830 --> 03:11:47,840 deal with any negatives yes and that's 5734 03:11:51,830 --> 03:11:49,840 that's that's very ethical and very 5735 03:11:53,190 --> 03:11:51,840 sweet and the problem is of course that 5736 03:11:55,269 --> 03:11:53,200 at this point most new products don't 5737 03:11:56,790 --> 03:11:55,279 make your life better most new products 5738 03:11:59,510 --> 03:11:56,800 actually do 5739 03:12:00,309 --> 03:11:59,520 progress no longer means improvement 5740 03:12:02,309 --> 03:12:00,319 um 5741 03:12:03,990 --> 03:12:02,319 a new product typically will do a worse 5742 03:12:05,670 --> 03:12:04,000 job of what it replaces it will cost you 5743 03:12:07,590 --> 03:12:05,680 more have more side effects have more 5744 03:12:08,870 --> 03:12:07,600 externalized costs that are burdening 5745 03:12:09,670 --> 03:12:08,880 you know it just 5746 03:12:11,990 --> 03:12:09,680 so 5747 03:12:14,870 --> 03:12:12,000 that's the the problem with 5748 03:12:16,230 --> 03:12:14,880 um you know industrialism in in extremis 5749 03:12:17,590 --> 03:12:16,240 and there's a whole there's a whole 5750 03:12:19,030 --> 03:12:17,600 other conversation which we could have 5751 03:12:20,870 --> 03:12:19,040 now if we had time 5752 03:12:23,110 --> 03:12:20,880 i would agree with that except i went 5753 03:12:24,550 --> 03:12:23,120 from a blackberry priv to an iphone 7 5754 03:12:26,309 --> 03:12:24,560 plus and i could i could tell you it's a 5755 03:12:29,349 --> 03:12:26,319 lot better you've got one yeah that's 5756 03:12:32,389 --> 03:12:29,359 you see everyone goes to the one 5757 03:12:34,309 --> 03:12:32,399 example of one of the few technologies 5758 03:12:37,670 --> 03:12:34,319 that has actually improved during that 5759 03:12:39,269 --> 03:12:37,680 time okay think of um 5760 03:12:41,670 --> 03:12:39,279 think of what's happened to 5761 03:12:43,030 --> 03:12:41,680 product quality and food for example oh 5762 03:12:46,790 --> 03:12:43,040 yeah in many you know the here i don't 5763 03:12:48,790 --> 03:12:46,800 know in many uh you're up in canada here 5764 03:12:50,790 --> 03:12:48,800 every year the passes the packages get 5765 03:12:52,950 --> 03:12:50,800 just a bit smaller the quality gets just 5766 03:12:54,550 --> 03:12:52,960 a bit lower when something is advertised 5767 03:12:55,910 --> 03:12:54,560 new and improved it may be new but it's 5768 03:12:57,750 --> 03:12:55,920 not improved 5769 03:13:00,230 --> 03:12:57,760 um look at our automobiles which fall 5770 03:13:01,830 --> 03:13:00,240 apart 5771 03:13:03,750 --> 03:13:01,840 generally consumer goods at this point 5772 03:13:05,269 --> 03:13:03,760 are pieces of crap compared to what they 5773 03:13:09,349 --> 03:13:05,279 were even 10 years ago 5774 03:13:11,750 --> 03:13:09,359 and every with the sole exception of the 5775 03:13:13,269 --> 03:13:11,760 handful of consumer products where 5776 03:13:15,510 --> 03:13:13,279 actual technical innovation is still 5777 03:13:16,710 --> 03:13:15,520 taking place computer scene or you know 5778 03:13:19,590 --> 03:13:16,720 things like 5779 03:13:20,630 --> 03:13:19,600 um smartphones being among them 5780 03:13:22,790 --> 03:13:20,640 okay 5781 03:13:24,469 --> 03:13:22,800
