00:01:54,459 fingerprints seem to be on much more 42 00:01:58,380 --> 00:01:56,590 than you might think today we're going 43 00:02:00,359 --> 00:01:58,390 to focus on the content of his latest 44 00:02:02,580 --> 00:02:00,369 two books rotten to the common core 45 00:02:04,980 --> 00:02:02,590 public schooling standardized tests in 46 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:04,990 the surveillance state and

plan of this capstone cabal and the 53 00:02:22,590 --> 00:02:20,470 events and initiatives that reek of 54 00:02:24,210 --> 00:02:22,600 their underlying agendas one of my 55 00:02:26,430 --> 00:02:24,220 favorite guests and yours the man who 56 00:02:28,710 --> 00:02:26,440 died sex the plan Joseph P Farrell 57 00:02:30,180 --> 00:02:28,720 welcome back to the higher side thanks 58 00:02:32,250 --> 00:02:30,190 Greg thanks for having me back 59 00:02:34,349 --> 00:02:32,260 yeah honored a pleasure my good man you 60 00:02:37,020 --> 00:02:34,359 really are one of the greats I'm really 61 00:02:38,610 --> 00:02:37,030 excited for this and when I saw that 62 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:38,620 rotten - the Common Core was coming out 63 00:02:43,620 --> 00:02:41,410 I was pumped because the education and 64 00:02:45,150 --> 00:02:43,630 schooling slice of the conspiracy pie is 65 00:02:47,309 --> 00:02:45,160 one that I think needs more attention 66 00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:47,319 because it affects us all so deeply I 67 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:49,329 mean how could it not be rare you know 68 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:51,010 we're forced to spend over a decade of 69 00:02:54,809 --> 00:02:52,090 our formative years under their 70 00:02:56,819 --> 00:02:54,819 nefarious guidance and slow slowly 71 00:02:58,770 --> 00:02:56,829 strips us down to nothing more but cogs 72 00:03:00,960 --> 00:02:58,780 in the machine and it leaves people 73 00:03:03,420 --> 00:03:00,970 unfulfilled often for their entire 74 00:03:05,009 --> 00:03:03,430 lifetime but even though compulsory 75 00:03:07,550 --> 00:03:05,019 schooling was sort of weaponized from 76 00:03:10,319 --> 00:03:07,560 the ground up they definitely seem to be 77 00:03:12,300 --> 00:03:10,329 tightening the screws so to speak with 78 00:03:15,479 --> 00:03:12,310 this new common core curriculum don't 79 00:03:18,509 --> 00:03:15,489 they oh absolutely absolutely you know 80 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:18,519 the title says it all my co-author and I 81 00:03:24,539 --> 00:03:21,010 have both been involved in education in 82 00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:24,549 our lives he still is I was fortunate 83 00:03:28,050 --> 00:03:26,650 enough to get out although at the time I 84 00:03:31,050 --> 00:03:28,060 didn't think I was too 85 00:03:34,410 --> 00:03:31,060 fortunate but you know I saw the worst 86 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:34,420 of the worst and to me doing the book 87 00:03:41,130 --> 00:03:36,970 was kind of it was kind of a bit of 88 00:03:43,199 --> 00:03:41,140 karma for me being able to expose some 89 00:03:46,020 --> 00:03:43,209 of the things that I saw going on as a 90 00:03:49,949 --> 00:03:46,030 professor one of my favorite anecdotes 91 00:03:52,199 --> 00:03:49,959 about the whole education methodology as 92 00:03:55,860 --> 00:03:52,209 it's taught in American quack edenia and 93 00:03:58,920 --> 00:03:55,870 that's how I refer to it is this shot 94 00:04:01,410 --> 00:03:58,930 through with psychological assumptions 95 00:04:03,750 --> 00:04:01,420 philosophical assumptions but my 96 00:04:05,550 --> 00:04:03,760 favorite anecdote from my teaching days 97 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:05,560 was the fact I used to teach a variety 98 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:08,650 of college-level history courses in 99 00:04:13,740 --> 00:04:10,930 modern European history Russian history 100 00:04:15,870 --> 00:04:13,750 even at one point I had to substitute 101 00:04:18,150 --> 00:04:15,880 for another professor who was on leave 102 00:04:20,759 --> 00:04:18,160 for a semester so I took his diplomatic 103 00:04:22,890 --> 00:04:20,769 history of the United States course and 104 00:04:25,500 --> 00:04:22,900 you know I had a wide range of courses 105 00:04:27,420 --> 00:04:25,510 that I taught but in teaching modern 106 00:04:30,390 --> 00:04:27,430 European history I used to give essay 107 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:30,400 exams for the most part because I'm 108 00:04:34,380 --> 00:04:32,410 adamantly against the idea of the 109 00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:34,390 standardized test being able to capture 110 00:04:40,620 --> 00:04:38,290 anyone's process of the reasoning so in 111 00:04:43,350 --> 00:04:40,630 the end the examination the first 112 00:04:45,659 --> 00:04:43,360 question I put in the examination was 113 00:04:49,529 --> 00:04:45,669 list five things that the Treaty of 114 00:04:52,350 --> 00:04:49,539 Versailles stipulated with regard to 115 00:04:55,500 --> 00:04:52,360 Germany you know easy question you can 116 00:04:57,570 --> 00:04:55,510 write out your five answers and in the 117 00:05:02,760 --> 00:04:57,580 question obviously I had to spell 118 00:05:05,250 --> 00:05:02,770 Versailles the ER SI IL le s okay fair 119 00:05:06,659 --> 00:05:05,260 enough and the student answered and 120 00:05:09,659 --> 00:05:06,669 incidentally the student was an 121 00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:09,669 education major all right and this just 122 00:05:14,670 --> 00:05:11,850 goes to show as far as I'm concerned how 123 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:14,680 colossal e stupefying 124 00:05:19,770 --> 00:05:17,530 and stupid icing the American 125 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:19,780 educational system really is because 126 00:05:26,130 --> 00:05:21,970 this student responded by spelling 127 00:05:28,620 --> 00:05:26,140 versailles v ER SI GH huh verse 128 00:05:31,460 --> 00:05:28,630 versailles okay when it's spelled 129 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:31,470 correctly in the question itself right 130 00:05:36,779 --> 00:05:34,210 so you know there's there's such a 131 00:05:39,690 --> 00:05:36,789 disconnect here that this whole 132 00:05:41,820 --> 00:05:39,700 methodology is made that people aren't 133 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:41,830 even capable of thinking anymore 134 00:05:45,210 --> 00:05:43,330 so anyway that's that's kind of my 135 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:45,220 anecdote to get it started 136 00:05:49,529 --> 00:05:47,770 fair enough and that really does go 137 00:05:51,510 --> 00:05:49,539 hand-in-hand with what I had is a first 138 00:05:53,909 --> 00:05:51,520 question for you which is early on in 139 00:05:55,770 --> 00:05:53,919 the book you do say that our focus is 140 00:05:58,320 --> 00:05:55,780 not so much upon the content or the 141 00:06:00,600 --> 00:05:58,330 standards themselves but rather upon the 142 00:06:02,850 --> 00:06:00,610 assessment process and its implicit 143 00:06:04,559 --> 00:06:02,860 consequences for parents students and 144 00:06:06,540 --> 00:06:04,569 the teaching profession right can you 145 00:06:08,070 --> 00:06:06,550 elaborate on that assessment process why 146 00:06:11,490 --> 00:06:08,080 it's so concerning and what it does 147 00:06:13,230 --> 00:06:11,500 exactly all right well the problem with 148 00:06:15,180 --> 00:06:13,240 most of the debate as far as my 149 00:06:18,570 --> 00:06:15,190 co-author and I were concerned with 150 00:06:22,110 --> 00:06:18,580 Common Core is that everybody's focused 151 00:06:24,390 --> 00:06:22,120 on the standards themselves well to us 152 00:06:27,779 --> 00:06:24,400 this was kind of a clever distraction 153 00:06:30,180 --> 00:06:27,789 because no one to my mind that is 154 00:06:32,159 --> 00:06:30,190 involved in education would question the 155 00:06:35,070 --> 00:06:32,169 idea that there is a certain central 156 00:06:37,770 --> 00:06:35,080 core or body of knowledge that education 157 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:37,780 is designed to hand out whatever the 158 00:06:41,969 --> 00:06:39,610 subject matter you might be teaching be 159 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:41,979 it history or physics or mathematics or 160 00:06:47,189 --> 00:06:44,650 music or whatever there is some sort of 161 00:06:49,860 --> 00:06:47,199 core that everybody acknowledges is 162 00:06:51,629 --> 00:06:49,870 there although individuals might draw up 163 00:06:53,809 --> 00:06:51,639 a different list as to what that core 164 00:06:56,790 --> 00:06:53,819 might be but their substantial agreement 165 00:07:00,480 --> 00:06:56,800 the real problem for us with Common Core 166 00:07:03,420 --> 00:07:00,490 is not in the actual idea that there 167 00:07:05,909 --> 00:07:03,430 should be some sort of common standard 168 00:07:10,740 --> 00:07:05,919 of disciplinary content that gets 169 00:07:15,510 --> 00:07:10,750 transmitted but rather the idea that you 170 00:07:17,369 --> 00:07:15,520 can assess that core solely on the basis 171 00:07:20,550 --> 00:07:17,379 of standardized tests because what 172 00:07:23,219 --> 00:07:20,560 Common Core does is it takes the 173 00:07:26,010 --> 00:07:23,229 standardized tests philosophy the a CT 174 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:26,020 the SAT Iowa test the basic skills that 175 00:07:30,089 --> 00:07:28,090 we all grew up having to fill out our 176 00:07:32,850 --> 00:07:30,099 little ovals making sure to stay inside 177 00:07:35,129 --> 00:07:32,860 the lines of their number to let pencils 178 00:07:38,999 --> 00:07:35,139 and so on and so forth is the idea that 179 00:07:41,519 --> 00:07:39,009 these tests can test reasoning process 180 00:07:42,510 --> 00:07:41,529 at all they can't what they're doing is 181 00:07:45,300 --> 00:07:42,520 they're providing you with a 182 00:07:47,399 --> 00:07:45,310 pre-selected list of answers that you 183 00:07:49,950 --> 00:07:47,409 have to choose from these answers 184 00:07:53,219 --> 00:07:49,960 oftentimes punish the student that is 185 00:07:56,199 --> 00:07:53,229 much more aware of the subtleties of 186 00:07:58,089 --> 00:07:56,209 certain things than the test makers them 187 00:08:00,850 --> 00:07:58,099 so that's the first problem but the 188 00:08:04,899 --> 00:08:00,860 second problem is that common core's 189 00:08:09,029 --> 00:08:04,909 assessment process supposedly takes the 190 00:08:12,749 --> 00:08:09,039 standardized test to a new level by 191 00:08:16,929 --> 00:08:12,759 making the test questions individually 192 00:08:19,299 --> 00:08:16,939 adaptive and responsive to the way the 193 00:08:21,730 --> 00:08:19,309 student answers the previous question 194 00:08:24,820 --> 00:08:21,740 alright so in other words we're looking 195 00:08:27,939 --> 00:08:24,830 at the standardized test on steroids 196 00:08:32,290 --> 00:08:27,949 because like all such things these are 197 00:08:34,899 --> 00:08:32,300 proprietary property you cannot go in 198 00:08:37,149 --> 00:08:34,909 and look at the algorithms the people 199 00:08:40,269 --> 00:08:37,159 involved in setting up these tests and 200 00:08:43,829 --> 00:08:40,279 so on and so forth so again you as a 201 00:08:47,949 --> 00:08:43,839 test taker are put in to an even more 202 00:08:51,370 --> 00:08:47,959 insidious box of having to read the mind 203 00:08:54,009 --> 00:08:51,380 of the test preparers hmm and to guess 204 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:54,019 their answers my classic example of what 205 00:08:59,019 --> 00:08:55,970 the standardized test the problem of the 206 00:09:01,269 --> 00:08:59,029 standardized test is first of all it's 207 00:09:04,059 --> 00:09:01,279 designed to reinforce an official 208 00:09:05,889 --> 00:09:04,069 narrative let me give you an example you 209 00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:05,899 might encounter on a standardized test 210 00:09:11,259 --> 00:09:09,110 who assassinated President John F 211 00:09:14,470 --> 00:09:11,269 Kennedy well the answer is Lee Harvey 212 00:09:16,629 --> 00:09:14,480 Oswald right mm-hmm but will those tests 213 00:09:20,530 --> 00:09:16,639 ever give you the option of selecting 214 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:20,540 from say an answer that would say a 215 00:09:26,590 --> 00:09:24,290 conspiracy involving a coalescence of 216 00:09:30,069 --> 00:09:26,600 interest involving you know anti-castro 217 00:09:31,689 --> 00:09:30,079 Cubans disenfranchised elements of the 218 00:09:33,579 --> 00:09:31,699 American intelligence community or what 219 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:33,589 have you because once you get into that 220 00:09:39,249 --> 00:09:36,410 kind of question then you're required to 221 00:09:41,710 --> 00:09:39,259 not only know of that research but be 222 00:09:44,590 --> 00:09:41,720 able to argue the case well these tests 223 00:09:48,850 --> 00:09:44,600 do not allow you to argue your process 224 00:09:52,090 --> 00:09:48,860 of reasoning for anything they simply 225 00:09:54,189 --> 00:09:52,100 make you a passive regurgitator of 226 00:09:56,769 --> 00:09:54,199 answers that they have pre-selected and 227 00:09:59,860 --> 00:09:56,779 that you simply select as the proper 228 00:10:01,900 --> 00:09:59,870 response right and they would argue that 229 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:01,910 this is all scientific when we go into a 230 00:10:06,490 --> 00:10:04,850 lot of detail about some of these test 231 00:10:08,889 --> 00:10:06,500 questions that have appeared on previous 232 00:10:09,780 --> 00:10:08,899 tests and they're anything but you know 233 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:09,790 you might be able 234 00:10:14,940 --> 00:10:12,130 to come up with a correct answer in a 235 00:10:17,910 --> 00:10:14,950 mathematics question but again part of 236 00:10:20,250 --> 00:10:17,920 deriving that answer is to show how you 237 00:10:22,560 --> 00:10:20,260 derive it I mean that's part of the 238 00:10:25,350 --> 00:10:22,570 mathematical process itself it's part of 239 00:10:27,650 --> 00:10:25,360 mathematical proofs so it's not simply 240 00:10:29,610 --> 00:10:27,660 selecting an answer it's showing how you 241 00:10:32,220 --> 00:10:29,620 reason to that answer 242 00:10:35,940 --> 00:10:32,230 and none of these tests do that so 243 00:10:38,460 --> 00:10:35,950 Common Core puts this all on steroids by 244 00:10:40,380 --> 00:10:38,470 making it individually adaptable your 245 00:10:42,990 --> 00:10:40,390 response is individually adaptable to 246 00:10:47,010 --> 00:10:43,000 the individual student you know so this 247 00:10:49,980 --> 00:10:47,020 this to me is the indicator that it is a 248 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:49,990 huge data mining operation number one 249 00:10:54,330 --> 00:10:52,210 and number two with the standardized 250 00:10:56,460 --> 00:10:54,340 test particularly in this instance where 251 00:10:58,740 --> 00:10:56,470 it's individually adapted what this 252 00:11:01,470 --> 00:10:58,750 means is that the test itself becomes 253 00:11:04,020 --> 00:11:01,480 kind of a loyalty test do you accept the 254 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:04,030 standard narrative are you capable of 255 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:06,850 knowing it and regurgitating it or do 256 00:11:11,610 --> 00:11:09,250 you not so you know there's any number 257 00:11:14,070 --> 00:11:11,620 of ways to look at this but the bottom 258 00:11:16,980 --> 00:11:14,080 line is for us it's just a massive 259 00:11:19,020 --> 00:11:16,990 expansion of the surveillance state and 260 00:11:22,110 --> 00:11:19,030 it's handing over in the guise of 261 00:11:25,230 --> 00:11:22,120 education to these testing corporations 262 00:11:27,690 --> 00:11:25,240 mountains of data which again are 263 00:11:29,850 --> 00:11:27,700 proprietary to them they can in turn use 264 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:29,860 that data sell it and so on and so forth 265 00:11:35,340 --> 00:11:32,410 so as far as we're concerned it's a huge 266 00:11:36,060 --> 00:11:35,350 huge scam I'm right there with you 267 00:11:38,670 --> 00:11:36,070 cheers to that 268 00:11:41,460 --> 00:11:38,680 and I I love the old George Carlin line 269 00:11:43,350 --> 00:11:41,470 that they just want obedient workers and 270 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:43,360 I think that the best term for what 271 00:11:46,530 --> 00:11:44,890 they're trying to churn out yeah and uh 272 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:46,540 you know I got some friends I think a 273 00:11:50,340 --> 00:11:48,010 lot of people do who might be in the 274 00:11:51,690 --> 00:11:50,350 teaching profession and I thought about 275 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:51,700 as I was going to this book how would 276 00:11:57,450 --> 00:11:54,610 they respond to some of these things and 277 00:11:59,250 --> 00:11:57,460 really the question that I think they 278 00:12:02,190 --> 00:11:59,260 don't ask that you do in the book is 279 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:02,200 when was the last time that a teacher 280 00:12:06,630 --> 00:12:04,450 went went to a seminar something to 281 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:06,640 study their actual discipline as opposed 282 00:12:10,860 --> 00:12:09,010 to the new standard for how they're 283 00:12:13,340 --> 00:12:10,870 supposed to quote manage their class 284 00:12:17,070 --> 00:12:13,350 right exactly exactly 285 00:12:19,380 --> 00:12:17,080 American crack edenia is focused on what 286 00:12:22,230 --> 00:12:19,390 I consider the claptrap of educational 287 00:12:23,590 --> 00:12:22,240 methodology so in other words school 288 00:12:25,990 --> 00:12:23,600 districts will pay you 289 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:26,000 to go to conferences or require unions 290 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:28,850 in many cases to stay after school and 291 00:12:34,329 --> 00:12:31,810 attend the latest workshop where you 292 00:12:37,449 --> 00:12:34,339 basically are subjected to all sorts of 293 00:12:39,639 --> 00:12:37,459 childish activities that are passive 294 00:12:42,069 --> 00:12:39,649 aggressive in nature designed to make 295 00:12:43,210 --> 00:12:42,079 you be a team player and all of this you 296 00:12:46,569 --> 00:12:43,220 know codswallop 297 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:46,579 but basically you would be hard-pressed 298 00:12:53,680 --> 00:12:50,569 to find a teacher say a teacher of 299 00:12:56,650 --> 00:12:53,690 English that would be paid to go attend 300 00:12:59,889 --> 00:12:56,660 a conference in the latest scholarship 301 00:13:02,530 --> 00:12:59,899 in literary criticism or the latest 302 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:02,540 findings on such-and-such an author you 303 00:13:06,670 --> 00:13:04,370 know and scholarly research or if you're 304 00:13:08,590 --> 00:13:06,680 a mathematics teacher going to a 305 00:13:10,509 --> 00:13:08,600 conference of mathematicians and hearing 306 00:13:12,939 --> 00:13:10,519 the latest papers in mathematics they're 307 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:12,949 not interested in other words in the 308 00:13:16,749 --> 00:13:15,050 content of the disciplines that you are 309 00:13:19,420 --> 00:13:16,759 supposed to teach what they're 310 00:13:23,710 --> 00:13:19,430 interested in is making the teacher a 311 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:23,720 kind of equivalent to a paralegal in 312 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:25,370 other words the teacher is now kind of a 313 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:28,250 licensed pair of psychiatrist who gets 314 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:30,050 their certification in applying the 315 00:13:34,569 --> 00:13:32,689 latest psychological or educational 316 00:13:36,129 --> 00:13:34,579 theories in the classroom and that's 317 00:13:38,439 --> 00:13:36,139 what they spend most of their time with 318 00:13:41,290 --> 00:13:38,449 these conferences quote-unquote learning 319 00:13:45,309 --> 00:13:41,300 to do again for me this is a clear sign 320 00:13:47,230 --> 00:13:45,319 that that American education is failing 321 00:13:50,019 --> 00:13:47,240 simply because you know an English 322 00:13:52,809 --> 00:13:50,029 teacher is there to teach English not to 323 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:52,819 teach the latest psychological theory so 324 00:13:56,889 --> 00:13:55,130 you know this is the other big problem 325 00:13:59,410 --> 00:13:56,899 that we're facing with all of this 326 00:14:01,590 --> 00:13:59,420 claptrap there's another thing since you 327 00:14:04,059 --> 00:14:01,600 raise this issue that we learned about 328 00:14:07,660 --> 00:14:04,069 after the book came out a teacher 329 00:14:09,910 --> 00:14:07,670 emailed me and said that she is 330 00:14:13,410 --> 00:14:09,920 absolutely refusing to go along with 331 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:13,420 Common Core because it also stipulates a 332 00:14:19,059 --> 00:14:16,610 universal kind of lesson plan for the 333 00:14:20,590 --> 00:14:19,069 teachers in her school district so in 334 00:14:22,629 --> 00:14:20,600 other words whether this whether or not 335 00:14:25,420 --> 00:14:22,639 this teachers students are ready at a 336 00:14:26,980 --> 00:14:25,430 certain time to progress on to the next 337 00:14:30,579 --> 00:14:26,990 level of whatever discipline they're 338 00:14:33,250 --> 00:14:30,589 supposedly studying she's mandated to 339 00:14:34,809 --> 00:14:33,260 proceed regardless so in other words you 340 00:14:36,750 --> 00:14:34,819 know what teacher can teach in an 341 00:14:38,610 --> 00:14:36,760 atmosphere like that this is 342 00:14:41,220 --> 00:14:38,620 just another example of the 343 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:41,230 centralization mania that is afflicting 344 00:14:45,990 --> 00:14:43,570 this country we know that centralization 345 00:14:48,030 --> 00:14:46,000 doesn't work for the simple reason that 346 00:14:50,970 --> 00:14:48,040 every group of human beings from 347 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:50,980 elementary school classrooms all the way 348 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:53,170 up to Wall Street every group of human 349 00:14:59,250 --> 00:14:55,290 beings is going to respond differently 350 00:15:00,630 --> 00:14:59,260 so you know the whole thing is is shot 351 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:00,640 through with all of these assumptions 352 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:03,370 that as far as we're concerned just mean 353 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:05,770 that the whole thing is a huge scam it's 354 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:07,570 not going to fix anything the only thing 355 00:15:13,470 --> 00:15:10,210 it's going to do is make these companies 356 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:13,480 even richer as the public trough mm-hmm 357 00:15:18,540 --> 00:15:15,850 yeah well said and those are pretty 358 00:15:20,220 --> 00:15:18,550 telling elements and let's look at some 359 00:15:22,070 --> 00:15:20,230 of the the people and the money behind 360 00:15:23,910 --> 00:15:22,080 this thing because people tend to think 361 00:15:25,860 --> 00:15:23,920 philanthropists like Bill Gates and 362 00:15:27,990 --> 00:15:25,870 their foundations who fund education are 363 00:15:30,870 --> 00:15:28,000 doing charitable works just the best 364 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:30,880 altruistic stuff but of course what are 365 00:15:35,070 --> 00:15:33,370 the red flags that you see that tell you 366 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:35,080 that there's a deeper agenda here they 367 00:15:40,530 --> 00:15:36,930 don't have our best interest at heart 368 00:15:43,590 --> 00:15:40,540 well first of all the idea that these 369 00:15:46,740 --> 00:15:43,600 foundations are philanthropic is the 370 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:46,750 first problem what these foundations are 371 00:15:51,510 --> 00:15:48,810 and we have a chapter in the book about 372 00:15:54,540 --> 00:15:51,520 foundations themselves and how they 373 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:54,550 arose and what they really do what they 374 00:15:59,280 --> 00:15:56,650 do educationally is they act as 375 00:16:01,830 --> 00:15:59,290 gatekeepers for the officially approved 376 00:16:03,660 --> 00:16:01,840 narratives is what they do and they fund 377 00:16:05,790 --> 00:16:03,670 those who agree with those narratives 378 00:16:08,310 --> 00:16:05,800 and withdraw funding or keep funding 379 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:08,320 from those who don't so this is the 380 00:16:12,090 --> 00:16:10,450 first problem the second problem with 381 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:12,100 these foundations and this is an 382 00:16:17,460 --> 00:16:14,650 observation that was not made by us it 383 00:16:19,500 --> 00:16:17,470 was actually made by the Council of the 384 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:19,510 rece Committee in the US House of 385 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:22,090 Representatives back in the 1950s it was 386 00:16:27,150 --> 00:16:24,250 investigating foundations a fella by the 387 00:16:28,770 --> 00:16:27,160 name of Rene Wormser and worms are made 388 00:16:32,430 --> 00:16:28,780 the observation that what these 389 00:16:35,100 --> 00:16:32,440 foundations in effect are are the way 390 00:16:37,830 --> 00:16:35,110 that the wealthy can retain control of 391 00:16:41,340 --> 00:16:37,840 their wealth while putting them into a 392 00:16:43,860 --> 00:16:41,350 special chartered entity that avoids 393 00:16:45,930 --> 00:16:43,870 taxation because these are nonprofit 394 00:16:47,970 --> 00:16:45,940 entities so in other words it gives them 395 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:47,980 a huge amount of power and he made the 396 00:16:52,579 --> 00:16:49,410 observation that because 397 00:16:55,519 --> 00:16:52,589 as of this phenomenon the closest analog 398 00:16:58,280 --> 00:16:55,529 to them were the medieval military 399 00:17:00,639 --> 00:16:58,290 orders like the Templars or the hospital 400 00:17:02,660 --> 00:17:00,649 errs more than the Teutonic Knights 401 00:17:05,120 --> 00:17:02,670 because what were they while they were 402 00:17:07,610 --> 00:17:05,130 essentially tax-exempt charitable 403 00:17:09,470 --> 00:17:07,620 foundations that allowed the 404 00:17:12,319 --> 00:17:09,480 intergenerational accumulation of 405 00:17:15,409 --> 00:17:12,329 capital on the one hand and allowed the 406 00:17:17,750 --> 00:17:15,419 people that were members of that order 407 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:17,760 or in this case foundation to control 408 00:17:23,929 --> 00:17:20,970 the uses of that capital and to drive 409 00:17:27,289 --> 00:17:23,939 political agendas I look at mr. gates 410 00:17:29,810 --> 00:17:27,299 and his backing of common core with with 411 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:29,820 a very jaundiced skeptical eye for the 412 00:17:35,029 --> 00:17:32,730 very simple reason that again under the 413 00:17:37,070 --> 00:17:35,039 computerized individually adaptive 414 00:17:39,909 --> 00:17:37,080 assessment process which again is 415 00:17:42,620 --> 00:17:39,919 standardized testing on steroids now 416 00:17:45,470 --> 00:17:42,630 what he's really doing is driving an 417 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:45,480 agenda simply designed to put more and 418 00:17:50,330 --> 00:17:47,490 more profits into his computer 419 00:17:53,620 --> 00:17:50,340 technology companies that's all it is so 420 00:17:56,810 --> 00:17:53,630 this is not an education solution 421 00:17:59,990 --> 00:17:56,820 there's even a case that we put in the 422 00:18:01,940 --> 00:18:00,000 book of a common core conference of get 423 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:01,950 together where they invited everybody 424 00:18:08,090 --> 00:18:05,730 except guess what teachers Hickel are 425 00:18:10,549 --> 00:18:08,100 they invited administrators and 426 00:18:13,610 --> 00:18:10,559 superintendents and principals and so on 427 00:18:15,740 --> 00:18:13,620 and so forth but no teachers because of 428 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:15,750 course that's where the rubber meets the 429 00:18:20,810 --> 00:18:17,850 road and most teachers I've talked to 430 00:18:24,380 --> 00:18:20,820 you are simply appalled at what they see 431 00:18:26,470 --> 00:18:24,390 in common core so I get again you know I 432 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:26,480 really question whether or not these 433 00:18:31,789 --> 00:18:29,730 foundations really are philanthropic to 434 00:18:35,210 --> 00:18:31,799 begin with I think all along they've 435 00:18:38,029 --> 00:18:35,220 been designed to promote the agendas of 436 00:18:41,750 --> 00:18:38,039 the super-rich and you know we see where 437 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:41,760 that's ìletís yeah not only is it better 438 00:18:46,370 --> 00:18:43,890 for them in terms of expanding wealth 439 00:18:48,950 --> 00:18:46,380 and power as well as limiting liability 440 00:18:51,230 --> 00:18:48,960 they also get the PR currency for all 441 00:18:54,529 --> 00:18:51,240 these quote noble deeds that nobody ever 442 00:18:56,450 --> 00:18:54,539 looks deeper on exactly so if we go back 443 00:18:58,340 --> 00:18:56,460 a few years and look at who laid the 444 00:18:59,810 --> 00:18:58,350 foundation for what we have now and who 445 00:19:02,090 --> 00:18:59,820 should we be holding responsible 446 00:19:02,930 --> 00:19:02,100 yeah you paint a nice bold target on 447 00:19:05,270 --> 00:19:02,940 this ville 448 00:19:07,100 --> 00:19:05,280 I'm Vaughn's character as well as John 449 00:19:09,620 --> 00:19:07,110 Dewey can you talk to us about them a 450 00:19:12,350 --> 00:19:09,630 bit and some of the history here well 451 00:19:15,980 --> 00:19:12,360 this is very very crucial for people to 452 00:19:17,570 --> 00:19:15,990 understand why American education and 453 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:17,580 I'll be just very blunt here why 454 00:19:26,270 --> 00:19:22,050 American education sucks vilhelm vote 455 00:19:29,540 --> 00:19:26,280 was basically one of the founders not 456 00:19:32,300 --> 00:19:29,550 only of psychology but of educational 457 00:19:34,310 --> 00:19:32,310 psychology and his philosophy was that 458 00:19:37,340 --> 00:19:34,320 if we were going to put psychology on 459 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:37,350 any sort of scientific footing at all we 460 00:19:44,660 --> 00:19:40,010 had to be able to reduce it to a 461 00:19:47,810 --> 00:19:44,670 materialistic approach because only the 462 00:19:50,420 --> 00:19:47,820 material in that kind of nifty Cartesian 463 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:50,430 dualism between matter and mind could be 464 00:19:56,660 --> 00:19:53,610 measured you know the mind was something 465 00:19:58,220 --> 00:19:56,670 that was personal subjective and all of 466 00:19:59,900 --> 00:19:58,230 that it couldn't be measured you 467 00:20:02,840 --> 00:19:59,910 couldn't take out a tape measure and 468 00:20:04,850 --> 00:20:02,850 measure it so he began for one of the 469 00:20:08,300 --> 00:20:04,860 better expression the materialistic turn 470 00:20:11,330 --> 00:20:08,310 in psychology and he set up a laboratory 471 00:20:14,660 --> 00:20:11,340 at the University of Leipzig in Prussia 472 00:20:17,120 --> 00:20:14,670 at the time and began to churn out 473 00:20:19,190 --> 00:20:17,130 students that he had trained in this 474 00:20:20,870 --> 00:20:19,200 approach to psychology and basically 475 00:20:24,350 --> 00:20:20,880 it's a very important to remember that 476 00:20:27,410 --> 00:20:24,360 Pavlov was one of his students because 477 00:20:29,810 --> 00:20:27,420 Vogt took the approach that because of 478 00:20:32,180 --> 00:20:29,820 the fact that the then reigning 479 00:20:34,670 --> 00:20:32,190 scientific paradigm was materialism that 480 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:34,680 the humanity itself the human being as 481 00:20:38,810 --> 00:20:36,210 an individual and humanity as a 482 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:38,820 collective was basically a stimulus 483 00:20:44,530 --> 00:20:42,210 response mechanism so in other words the 484 00:20:46,580 --> 00:20:44,540 educator had to design appropriate 485 00:20:48,590 --> 00:20:46,590 environments in the classroom and this 486 00:20:51,230 --> 00:20:48,600 is why teacher certification here is now 487 00:20:53,090 --> 00:20:51,240 important and why I suggested earlier 488 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:53,100 that the teacher is nothing but kind of 489 00:20:58,310 --> 00:20:55,410 a parapsychologist and in this view 490 00:21:01,750 --> 00:20:58,320 because the teacher is supposed to 491 00:21:04,220 --> 00:21:01,760 design the most apt stimulus response 492 00:21:07,070 --> 00:21:04,230 environment for the student to learn it 493 00:21:09,770 --> 00:21:07,080 so there is your turn away from the 494 00:21:11,540 --> 00:21:09,780 content of the discipline to a focus on 495 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:11,550 the methodology of actually 496 00:21:15,389 --> 00:21:13,770 communicating that discipline in that 497 00:21:18,979 --> 00:21:15,399 context so 498 00:21:22,709 --> 00:21:18,989 he trains a whole generation either 499 00:21:25,229 --> 00:21:22,719 directly or through people that he is 500 00:21:28,379 --> 00:21:25,239 trained who then train others who 501 00:21:30,869 --> 00:21:28,389 influenced American education at the end 502 00:21:32,999 --> 00:21:30,879 of the 19th century and all the way on 503 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:33,009 into the 20th and I would even include 504 00:21:38,759 --> 00:21:36,369 people like George as counts or James 505 00:21:41,549 --> 00:21:38,769 bryant conant of harvard university or 506 00:21:44,159 --> 00:21:41,559 even henry Chauncey who sets up the 507 00:21:47,519 --> 00:21:44,169 Educational Testing Service in Princeton 508 00:21:50,039 --> 00:21:47,529 as people that were imbibed with this 509 00:21:51,989 --> 00:21:50,049 philosophy of humanity as a stimulus 510 00:21:54,570 --> 00:21:51,999 response mechanism it works out very 511 00:21:56,249 --> 00:21:54,580 well if you have that philosophy for 512 00:21:58,759 --> 00:21:56,259 Madison Avenue and Wall Street you know 513 00:22:01,440 --> 00:21:58,769 because you're creating a generation of 514 00:22:05,190 --> 00:22:01,450 consumers rather than people who can 515 00:22:08,249 --> 00:22:05,200 think critically about anything so it's 516 00:22:10,529 --> 00:22:08,259 had a huge huge effect on American 517 00:22:12,869 --> 00:22:10,539 education now you mentioned Dewey but 518 00:22:15,539 --> 00:22:12,879 there's a whole host of other people we 519 00:22:18,450 --> 00:22:15,549 could mention here Thorndyke the fellow 520 00:22:21,599 --> 00:22:18,460 that I forget his name was Abraham Exner 521 00:22:24,839 --> 00:22:21,609 I think was his name let's set up his 522 00:22:27,329 --> 00:22:24,849 own kind of progressive education school 523 00:22:29,820 --> 00:22:27,339 where he wanted to test some of these 524 00:22:31,799 --> 00:22:29,830 ideas and he called it the Lincoln 525 00:22:35,789 --> 00:22:31,809 School to give it a nice patriotic 526 00:22:38,430 --> 00:22:35,799 sounding American name and we we bring 527 00:22:40,589 --> 00:22:38,440 out the fact that john d rockefeller 528 00:22:45,479 --> 00:22:40,599 sent his three sons David Lawrence and 529 00:22:48,810 --> 00:22:45,489 Nelson Aldrich to this school where as a 530 00:22:51,690 --> 00:22:48,820 result of their experience all three of 531 00:22:54,959 --> 00:22:51,700 the rockefeller brothers had difficulty 532 00:22:56,759 --> 00:22:54,969 reading they don't enjoy reading in fact 533 00:22:59,399 --> 00:22:56,769 they find it tedious they find it 534 00:23:01,739 --> 00:22:59,409 difficult well you know I'm sorry if 535 00:23:03,450 --> 00:23:01,749 you're a member of the elite and you've 536 00:23:05,549 --> 00:23:03,460 sent your kids to that kind of school 537 00:23:09,749 --> 00:23:05,559 then you're ending up with a stupid 538 00:23:12,450 --> 00:23:09,759 elite and we're in an election cycle 539 00:23:13,049 --> 00:23:12,460 that certainly is proving that to be the 540 00:23:15,060 --> 00:23:13,059 point 541 00:23:17,399 --> 00:23:15,070 you know they've surrounded themselves 542 00:23:19,139 --> 00:23:17,409 with their own philosophy to the point 543 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:19,149 that they can't even think outside their 544 00:23:23,399 --> 00:23:21,369 own narratives anymore so this is the 545 00:23:25,019 --> 00:23:23,409 other danger of Common Core I think in 546 00:23:27,120 --> 00:23:25,029 the whole progressive education 547 00:23:30,390 --> 00:23:27,130 philosophy the materialism that 548 00:23:32,370 --> 00:23:30,400 underlies it you're basically to 549 00:23:35,370 --> 00:23:32,380 paraphrase CS Lewis you're turning out a 550 00:23:38,790 --> 00:23:35,380 whole generation of men without chest so 551 00:23:40,830 --> 00:23:38,800 in other words of men without virtues or 552 00:23:45,660 --> 00:23:40,840 moral principles or anything like that 553 00:23:47,610 --> 00:23:45,670 and that is to my mind that's the 554 00:23:49,500 --> 00:23:47,620 crucial component of being able to think 555 00:23:51,930 --> 00:23:49,510 critically about anything about a 556 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:51,940 narrative and so on and so forth so it's 557 00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:54,610 had a huge effect this vilhelm blunt 558 00:23:59,700 --> 00:23:57,610 character and you know the interesting 559 00:24:03,570 --> 00:23:59,710 thing here that we have to ask ourselves 560 00:24:09,470 --> 00:24:03,580 Greg is why would American educators at 561 00:24:11,820 --> 00:24:09,480 that time use an example of oppression 562 00:24:13,950 --> 00:24:11,830 education not we're not even just 563 00:24:17,070 --> 00:24:13,960 talking you know Imperial Vilhelm in 564 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:17,080 Germany here we're talking Prussian for 565 00:24:21,750 --> 00:24:19,450 the whole philosophy of education under 566 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:21,760 grunt was we're turning out people to be 567 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:24,850 good and obedient there's that key word 568 00:24:32,910 --> 00:24:29,290 and loyal products for the state because 569 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:32,920 the state is all consuming the state is 570 00:24:38,100 --> 00:24:34,930 all-powerful in the Prussian model 571 00:24:42,180 --> 00:24:38,110 why would Americans turn to that model 572 00:24:44,370 --> 00:24:42,190 as a thing that they want to model 573 00:24:47,130 --> 00:24:44,380 American education on why did they 574 00:24:49,140 --> 00:24:47,140 abandon the tradition that we had 575 00:24:52,290 --> 00:24:49,150 inherited from you know the oxford 576 00:24:54,300 --> 00:24:52,300 universities in england and which played 577 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:54,310 a huge role in setting up our own big 578 00:24:58,560 --> 00:24:56,050 name universities Harvard Yale Princeton 579 00:25:00,980 --> 00:24:58,570 and so on why would we abandon that 580 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:00,990 tradition for something inherently alien 581 00:25:06,180 --> 00:25:03,850 to our philosophy of government to our 582 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:06,190 philosophy of culture to our 583 00:25:10,830 --> 00:25:08,890 understanding of individual liberties 584 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:10,840 and and so on and so forth why would we 585 00:25:13,830 --> 00:25:11,290 do that 586 00:25:16,860 --> 00:25:13,840 and the answer is when you read these 587 00:25:19,710 --> 00:25:16,870 people they really do believe in that 588 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:19,720 Prussian philosophy they really have 589 00:25:25,710 --> 00:25:23,170 abandoned their commitment to that 590 00:25:29,010 --> 00:25:25,720 anglo-saxon tradition of individual 591 00:25:31,410 --> 00:25:29,020 skeptical critical inquiry so you know 592 00:25:33,570 --> 00:25:31,420 it's it's staring us right in the face 593 00:25:35,190 --> 00:25:33,580 if we stop and think about the obvious 594 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:35,200 part of it mm-hmm 595 00:25:41,039 --> 00:25:38,050 well said and I do love that Rockefeller 596 00:25:42,060 --> 00:25:41,049 anecdote because for once it looks like 597 00:25:44,149 --> 00:25:42,070 they actually got a little bit of a 598 00:25:46,470 --> 00:25:44,159 taste of their own medicine and yeah 599 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:46,480 it's nice to see that once in a while 600 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:48,610 but I guess you know you kind of alluded 601 00:25:53,729 --> 00:25:51,369 this but it does seem like that has 602 00:25:55,499 --> 00:25:53,739 shown itself in the game plan today they 603 00:25:58,229 --> 00:25:55,509 don't seem to be quite as nimble or 604 00:26:00,659 --> 00:25:58,239 effective in some ways or at least as 605 00:26:03,450 --> 00:26:00,669 quick to be able to pivot as they once 606 00:26:05,489 --> 00:26:03,460 were wouldn't you say right well well I 607 00:26:08,609 --> 00:26:05,499 guess I would agree with you 608 00:26:10,529 --> 00:26:08,619 wholeheartedly several years ago on The 609 00:26:13,739 --> 00:26:10,539 Late Georgeann Hughes's radio show 610 00:26:17,369 --> 00:26:13,749 called the bite show I pointed out that 611 00:26:19,950 --> 00:26:17,379 the so-called elite really seems to be 612 00:26:21,930 --> 00:26:19,960 very very stupid in other words they are 613 00:26:24,539 --> 00:26:21,940 using the same playbook because they 614 00:26:27,109 --> 00:26:24,549 don't know anything else they have done 615 00:26:30,389 --> 00:26:27,119 to themselves down in the process of 616 00:26:32,310 --> 00:26:30,399 dumbing everybody else down to the point 617 00:26:35,190 --> 00:26:32,320 and this is something that the Katherine 618 00:26:38,999 --> 00:26:35,200 Fitz made me aware of last year last 619 00:26:40,940 --> 00:26:39,009 year in July The Economist magazine in 620 00:26:44,849 --> 00:26:40,950 Great Britain which you know most people 621 00:26:47,700 --> 00:26:44,859 think of as the magazine of record for 622 00:26:51,349 --> 00:26:47,710 the British oligarchy all right well 623 00:26:55,070 --> 00:26:51,359 last July in 2015 The Economist magazine 624 00:26:57,149 --> 00:26:55,080 ran an op-ed piece about the 625 00:26:57,539 --> 00:26:57,159 calcification this is their words not 626 00:26:59,340 --> 00:26:57,549 mine 627 00:27:01,950 --> 00:26:59,350 the calcification of the American 628 00:27:03,389 --> 00:27:01,960 political class and the effect of the 629 00:27:04,859 --> 00:27:03,399 article was you're kidding you're 630 00:27:07,619 --> 00:27:04,869 running Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton 631 00:27:09,210 --> 00:27:07,629 again you know can't you guys come up 632 00:27:11,820 --> 00:27:09,220 with something different well the 633 00:27:15,090 --> 00:27:11,830 answer's no because because our own 634 00:27:17,759 --> 00:27:15,100 political elite has been calcified it 635 00:27:22,049 --> 00:27:17,769 can't think outside of its own construct 636 00:27:23,849 --> 00:27:22,059 and its own box and this you know the 637 00:27:25,970 --> 00:27:23,859 election that we're seeing now as far as 638 00:27:28,649 --> 00:27:25,980 I'm concerned is really a referendum 639 00:27:30,899 --> 00:27:28,659 it's not an election in any classic 640 00:27:33,029 --> 00:27:30,909 sense it's really a referendum on do we 641 00:27:35,129 --> 00:27:33,039 want more of this global centralization 642 00:27:37,289 --> 00:27:35,139 and these idiots running the world and 643 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:37,299 running it according to a paradigm 644 00:27:42,180 --> 00:27:39,369 that's never been tested or proven and 645 00:27:43,919 --> 00:27:42,190 seems to be breaking down under the 646 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:43,929 strain or do we want something different 647 00:27:50,879 --> 00:27:48,369 I really look at it that way and if you 648 00:27:53,249 --> 00:27:50,889 factor in education here and the 649 00:27:54,430 --> 00:27:53,259 material is turned that it took in the 650 00:27:57,130 --> 00:27:54,440 19th century 651 00:27:59,050 --> 00:27:57,140 I think what you're looking at is the 652 00:28:02,440 --> 00:27:59,060 collapse of that materialist philosophy 653 00:28:06,100 --> 00:28:02,450 these people are clinging to it Greg 654 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:06,110 dogged Lee when science itself 655 00:28:11,110 --> 00:28:07,970 particularly quantum physics is 656 00:28:14,260 --> 00:28:11,120 increasingly pointing not toward a 657 00:28:16,450 --> 00:28:14,270 material primacy but really towards the 658 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:16,460 primacy of mind and of consciousness 659 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:20,090 itself so why would we stick to Bill 660 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:23,210 Gates and these other people that are 661 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:25,850 advocating the same-old same-old on 662 00:28:29,010 --> 00:28:26,810 steroids 663 00:28:31,630 --> 00:28:29,020 and not reassess the basic philosophical 664 00:28:34,870 --> 00:28:31,640 principles that have led to this 665 00:28:37,510 --> 00:28:34,880 educational mess that you know as far as 666 00:28:39,460 --> 00:28:37,520 I'm concerned Greg the way to solve it 667 00:28:42,610 --> 00:28:39,470 is first of all get rid of the 668 00:28:45,550 --> 00:28:42,620 requirement for teacher certification it 669 00:28:47,410 --> 00:28:45,560 is to the point you know I have a PhD 670 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:47,420 from the oldest english-speaking 671 00:28:52,570 --> 00:28:49,570 University in the english-speaking world 672 00:28:55,540 --> 00:28:52,580 all right now incidentally that 673 00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:55,550 university has never been accredited by 674 00:29:01,690 --> 00:28:58,130 any American accreditation agency thank 675 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:01,700 goodness but I cannot go into a high 676 00:29:07,260 --> 00:29:05,090 school classroom and teach American 677 00:29:09,370 --> 00:29:07,270 history or European history or whatever 678 00:29:12,430 --> 00:29:09,380 because I don't have a teaching 679 00:29:15,910 --> 00:29:12,440 certificate from some Teachers College 680 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:15,920 where I spend time learning the latest 681 00:29:20,470 --> 00:29:19,010 educational claptrap in playing silly 682 00:29:22,780 --> 00:29:20,480 games and quite literally that's 683 00:29:26,110 --> 00:29:22,790 oftentimes what these courses consist of 684 00:29:28,990 --> 00:29:26,120 is playing games right so we have to 685 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:29,000 examine the whole structure as far as 686 00:29:32,650 --> 00:29:30,530 we're concerned and this is really kind 687 00:29:34,330 --> 00:29:32,660 of what we were arguing in the book we 688 00:29:38,050 --> 00:29:34,340 have to examine the whole structure 689 00:29:40,300 --> 00:29:38,060 itself and you know we're in basic 690 00:29:41,980 --> 00:29:40,310 agreement with john taylor gatto you 691 00:29:44,230 --> 00:29:41,990 know the famous american teacher that's 692 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:44,240 written so many books yes and he's you 693 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:45,650 know he's come right out and said the 694 00:29:50,530 --> 00:29:47,330 whole system has to be completely 695 00:29:54,670 --> 00:29:50,540 scrapped no amount of money is going to 696 00:29:57,190 --> 00:29:54,680 fix this because the assumptions and the 697 00:29:59,200 --> 00:29:57,200 institutions put into place on the basis 698 00:30:01,900 --> 00:29:59,210 of those assumptions are completely 699 00:30:03,610 --> 00:30:01,910 fallacious mmhmm yeah yeah I mean the 700 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:03,620 elite are getting what they pay for they 701 00:30:07,930 --> 00:30:05,690 built this thing to churn out obedient 702 00:30:09,879 --> 00:30:07,940 workers and it's working just great 703 00:30:11,470 --> 00:30:09,889 yeah you know and not and now we have 704 00:30:12,249 --> 00:30:11,480 bank managers it can't balance a 705 00:30:14,379 --> 00:30:12,259 checkbook 706 00:30:16,690 --> 00:30:14,389 you know also it's no wonder that we 707 00:30:18,789 --> 00:30:16,700 have trillions of dollars from accounted 708 00:30:20,950 --> 00:30:18,799 for the Pentagon or in this bank or that 709 00:30:24,730 --> 00:30:20,960 Bank because when you're dealing with 710 00:30:27,129 --> 00:30:24,740 stupid people the immoral people the 711 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:27,139 greedy people the criminal class can 712 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:29,450 thrive right and then that can be a 713 00:30:33,539 --> 00:30:31,610 silver lining or an even scarier 714 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:33,549 assertion depending on your perspective 715 00:30:40,629 --> 00:30:37,730 precisely precisely hmm so we have this 716 00:30:42,299 --> 00:30:40,639 campaign to dumbest down and then we 717 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:42,309 could also throw in this element of 718 00:30:47,350 --> 00:30:44,690 drugging us down which is something that 719 00:30:49,210 --> 00:30:47,360 happened Oh a bit later right yeah well 720 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:49,220 we don't talk about that much in the 721 00:30:57,369 --> 00:30:52,970 book but that's quite true I mean I I 722 00:31:01,570 --> 00:30:57,379 have known and dealt with people that 723 00:31:05,049 --> 00:31:01,580 are genuinely ADHD adult attention 724 00:31:06,879 --> 00:31:05,059 deficit hyperactivity disorder I've met 725 00:31:10,050 --> 00:31:06,889 and dealt with people like that so I I 726 00:31:12,690 --> 00:31:10,060 do think it does exist however 727 00:31:15,300 --> 00:31:12,700 I think the other problem here is that 728 00:31:17,340 --> 00:31:15,310 basically and this is particularly true 729 00:31:21,030 --> 00:31:17,350 of little boys less so of little girls 730 00:31:23,460 --> 00:31:21,040 but basically they're diagnosing simple 731 00:31:25,950 --> 00:31:23,470 you know young male behavior all the 732 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:25,960 time as ADHD and they're drugging these 733 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:28,090 kids with all sorts of stuff that 734 00:31:33,810 --> 00:31:31,450 basically turns them into zombies mm-hmm 735 00:31:36,420 --> 00:31:33,820 not in contact with their emotions not 736 00:31:39,030 --> 00:31:36,430 in contact with their thought and above 737 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:39,040 all not able to reason or think 738 00:31:44,550 --> 00:31:41,410 critically this goes back to why I 739 00:31:47,100 --> 00:31:44,560 always insisted as a professor on giving 740 00:31:51,780 --> 00:31:47,110 essay exams because it's in the act of 741 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:51,790 writing that you you learn the art and 742 00:31:57,810 --> 00:31:55,210 craft of analyzing a position and 743 00:32:00,120 --> 00:31:57,820 arguing either against it or for your 744 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:00,130 own position or for that position or 745 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:02,130 what-have-you it's in the act of writing 746 00:32:08,270 --> 00:32:05,170 that you're actually reasoning something 747 00:32:11,070 --> 00:32:08,280 not simply spitting out an answer that 748 00:32:13,260 --> 00:32:11,080 the student is having to guess that the 749 00:32:16,500 --> 00:32:13,270 professor or the teacher or some hidden 750 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:16,510 committee compiling test questions for 751 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:21,010 standardized tests wants so for me the 752 00:32:26,540 --> 00:32:24,130 critical thing as a professor back when 753 00:32:29,670 --> 00:32:26,550 I was teaching was to be able to see if 754 00:32:31,980 --> 00:32:29,680 someone was genuinely engaged 755 00:32:34,530 --> 00:32:31,990 intellectually with the subject matter 756 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:34,540 and able to understand it and argue a 757 00:32:39,390 --> 00:32:37,450 position based on the facts and data 758 00:32:41,610 --> 00:32:39,400 that they had been presented that for me 759 00:32:43,260 --> 00:32:41,620 was the key element and you can't get 760 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:43,270 that on a standardized test and 761 00:32:48,210 --> 00:32:45,730 certainly can't get it on a test that is 762 00:32:50,220 --> 00:32:48,220 now computerized individually adaptive 763 00:32:52,260 --> 00:32:50,230 according to the latest psychological 764 00:32:55,020 --> 00:32:52,270 theory by a committee of test compilers 765 00:32:58,020 --> 00:32:55,030 in Princeton New Jersey or in Seattle 766 00:33:00,060 --> 00:32:58,030 Washington or wherever mm-hmm right and 767 00:33:02,580 --> 00:33:00,070 did the all-mighty infallible system 768 00:33:04,590 --> 00:33:02,590 it's like yes exactly right there to 769 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:04,600 using the teachers as scapegoats and 770 00:33:07,530 --> 00:33:06,250 trying to say you know yeah these are 771 00:33:09,390 --> 00:33:07,540 the school suck is because these 772 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:09,400 teachers there's no standards the 773 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:11,530 teachers oh yeah exactly you know it's 774 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:15,970 all the teachers for me and if anything 775 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:18,970 what this system has done greg is it has 776 00:33:23,300 --> 00:33:21,250 created what I call the subversive 777 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:23,310 teacher and the subversive student 778 00:33:27,870 --> 00:33:25,810 because their art and if you're a 779 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:27,880 teacher listening to this and you 780 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:29,890 probably have experienced this in your 781 00:33:36,210 --> 00:33:33,850 own career because the system dictates 782 00:33:39,390 --> 00:33:36,220 to you that you have to do such-and-such 783 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:39,400 by such in such a time and get such and 784 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:41,050 such a result on such and such a 785 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:44,170 standardized test and you realize at 786 00:33:50,250 --> 00:33:46,330 some point when you're in the classroom 787 00:33:52,380 --> 00:33:50,260 teaching a group of people that this is 788 00:33:55,260 --> 00:33:52,390 simply not going to work for these 789 00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:55,270 people so you teach your discipline to 790 00:33:59,730 --> 00:33:57,970 the best that you can and it's in those 791 00:34:01,740 --> 00:33:59,740 subversive moments usually between 792 00:34:03,990 --> 00:34:01,750 classes that you have with students who 793 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:04,000 are beginning to ask the right kind of 794 00:34:08,070 --> 00:34:06,610 questions and questions what is going on 795 00:34:10,650 --> 00:34:08,080 in the system that you have those 796 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:10,660 conversations that expose the whole 797 00:34:15,720 --> 00:34:12,610 thing so in other words you're creating 798 00:34:18,860 --> 00:34:15,730 an underground here that is trying to 799 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:18,870 preserve what's left of the Western 800 00:34:24,270 --> 00:34:21,090 civilization and is traditions of 801 00:34:27,060 --> 00:34:24,280 Education by content and discipline and 802 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:27,070 critical reasoning ability but you're 803 00:34:31,470 --> 00:34:28,690 working against a system that is 804 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:31,480 designed not to do that so you're 805 00:34:36,060 --> 00:34:33,970 literally creating a black market for 806 00:34:37,590 --> 00:34:36,070 these things and and I suspect 807 00:34:39,420 --> 00:34:37,600 eventually that's what's going to happen 808 00:34:41,670 --> 00:34:39,430 right you're going to have a massive 809 00:34:44,130 --> 00:34:41,680 black market of private tutors you know 810 00:34:46,620 --> 00:34:44,140 of people that can afford it and want 811 00:34:49,110 --> 00:34:46,630 their kids to learn something and learn 812 00:34:50,910 --> 00:34:49,120 a value mmm-hmm and the other thing that 813 00:34:53,460 --> 00:34:50,920 this system does and I'll be quite frank 814 00:34:55,830 --> 00:34:53,470 and I saw this over and over again when 815 00:35:00,300 --> 00:34:55,840 I was teaching the other thing that this 816 00:35:04,740 --> 00:35:00,310 system does is it produces waves of 817 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:04,750 boredom tidal waves tsunamis of boredom 818 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:07,930 right because most students are talked 819 00:35:14,310 --> 00:35:12,370 to at such a stupid level by the system 820 00:35:17,070 --> 00:35:14,320 that they know they're being taught down 821 00:35:20,070 --> 00:35:17,080 - mm-hmm I can't tell you how many times 822 00:35:21,690 --> 00:35:20,080 I heard when I was a professor Greg you 823 00:35:23,910 --> 00:35:21,700 know students would come up to me after 824 00:35:25,470 --> 00:35:23,920 the end of a course or something and say 825 00:35:28,850 --> 00:35:25,480 something to the effect that you're the 826 00:35:30,770 --> 00:35:28,860 first real professor I've had huh 827 00:35:33,140 --> 00:35:30,780 because I insisted at teaching at a 828 00:35:36,980 --> 00:35:33,150 genuinely collegiate level and not the 829 00:35:39,620 --> 00:35:36,990 dumbed down level that most professors 830 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:39,630 now teach at in this country because the 831 00:35:44,030 --> 00:35:41,370 product that they're getting from the 832 00:35:46,970 --> 00:35:44,040 public education system is so colossal 833 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:46,980 II stupid witness and case in point the 834 00:35:51,410 --> 00:35:49,050 student who can't spell Versailles 835 00:35:54,470 --> 00:35:51,420 correctly when I've spelled it correctly 836 00:35:58,340 --> 00:35:54,480 in the test question itself right right 837 00:36:01,490 --> 00:35:58,350 they just don't make the connection hmm 838 00:36:02,810 --> 00:36:01,500 yeah in terms of the the pharmaceutical 839 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:02,820 initiative that has got to be one of the 840 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:04,530 best things that my parents did for me 841 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:07,050 was reject those attempts to get me on 842 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:09,930 that adderall train because there they 843 00:36:15,410 --> 00:36:12,930 were there and I have a note here that 844 00:36:16,940 --> 00:36:15,420 seems kind of disjointed maybe connected 845 00:36:19,100 --> 00:36:16,950 to that pharmaceutical initiative to ask 846 00:36:23,090 --> 00:36:19,110 you about the Society for the 847 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:23,100 investigation of human oncology oh this 848 00:36:26,390 --> 00:36:24,330 might be where some of the deeper 849 00:36:28,130 --> 00:36:26,400 nefarious agendas show up I think oh 850 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:28,140 yeah absolutely 851 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:33,450 that was a CIA front back in the 1950s 852 00:36:39,500 --> 00:36:37,170 that was a CIA front for the mind 853 00:36:42,290 --> 00:36:39,510 control projects you know project 854 00:36:43,790 --> 00:36:42,300 artichoke MKULTRA and things like this 855 00:36:48,290 --> 00:36:43,800 that was set up 856 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:48,300 they in turn approached the Educational 857 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:50,010 Testing Service you know that huge 858 00:36:56,510 --> 00:36:53,610 nonprofit conglomerate that squats like 859 00:36:58,550 --> 00:36:56,520 you know a cancer in the middle of the 860 00:37:01,460 --> 00:36:58,560 American education system founded by 861 00:37:04,370 --> 00:37:01,470 Henry Chauncey and kind of wet nourished 862 00:37:07,730 --> 00:37:04,380 into existence by james bryant conant of 863 00:37:09,470 --> 00:37:07,740 harvard university during the 50s and of 864 00:37:12,230 --> 00:37:09,480 course the Educational Testing Service 865 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:12,240 is the service that owns the scholastic 866 00:37:17,240 --> 00:37:14,930 aptitude test you know one of the famous 867 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:17,250 standardized tests in this country 868 00:37:22,190 --> 00:37:19,410 well they approached the Educational 869 00:37:25,900 --> 00:37:22,200 Testing Service to see if the service 870 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:25,910 could design for them various tests 871 00:37:31,550 --> 00:37:28,890 related to personality and and so on and 872 00:37:34,850 --> 00:37:31,560 so forth so in other words whatever the 873 00:37:38,110 --> 00:37:34,860 details of this association are the 874 00:37:42,650 --> 00:37:38,120 implication here is that the CIA 875 00:37:45,710 --> 00:37:42,660 recognized the power of the tool 876 00:37:48,230 --> 00:37:45,720 standardized testing as a tool of social 877 00:37:50,930 --> 00:37:48,240 engineering and therefore of mind 878 00:37:52,990 --> 00:37:50,940 manipulation now I mentioned that 879 00:37:57,020 --> 00:37:53,000 because we point out in the book that 880 00:37:59,690 --> 00:37:57,030 this was really the reason that Henry 881 00:38:02,180 --> 00:37:59,700 Chauncey wanted to find the Educational 882 00:38:05,240 --> 00:38:02,190 Testing Service he and James bryant 883 00:38:07,730 --> 00:38:05,250 conant had the idea that well we need to 884 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:07,740 create a new kind of aristocracy in this 885 00:38:13,430 --> 00:38:10,290 country an aristocracy of merit and 886 00:38:15,110 --> 00:38:13,440 we're going to go search for the best 887 00:38:17,300 --> 00:38:15,120 and brightest people and we're going to 888 00:38:19,010 --> 00:38:17,310 give them better education than the kind 889 00:38:22,900 --> 00:38:19,020 of education we're giving everybody else 890 00:38:25,940 --> 00:38:22,910 and the way to do this is to test on a 891 00:38:28,130 --> 00:38:25,950 national level and to quote unquote test 892 00:38:30,860 --> 00:38:28,140 scientifically enter the standardized 893 00:38:33,590 --> 00:38:30,870 test in other words the test itself 894 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:33,600 becomes a sorting mechanism you get 895 00:38:37,630 --> 00:38:35,490 certain scores you're eligible for 896 00:38:40,580 --> 00:38:37,640 certain scholarships you're eligible for 897 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:40,590 entrance into this major university 898 00:38:44,420 --> 00:38:42,570 instead of that little university out 899 00:38:46,700 --> 00:38:44,430 there in the plains of the Midwest 900 00:38:51,170 --> 00:38:46,710 somewhere and so on and so forth so it 901 00:38:54,290 --> 00:38:51,180 becomes a tool of the American oligarchy 902 00:38:56,660 --> 00:38:54,300 to perpetuate their power and bring 903 00:38:59,960 --> 00:38:56,670 other people in the problem is of course 904 00:39:02,660 --> 00:38:59,970 that they selected what can only be 905 00:39:05,810 --> 00:39:02,670 called a kind of computerized phrenology 906 00:39:07,750 --> 00:39:05,820 to be able to do this you know the old 907 00:39:10,790 --> 00:39:07,760 idea that you could measure a person's 908 00:39:13,730 --> 00:39:10,800 mental capacity by taking calipers and 909 00:39:15,890 --> 00:39:13,740 measuring them measuring the brain when 910 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:15,900 it's interesting to me because they even 911 00:39:20,540 --> 00:39:18,330 adopted the Iowa Test of Basic Skills at 912 00:39:22,700 --> 00:39:20,550 one point I remember seeing this as a 913 00:39:25,010 --> 00:39:22,710 kid would have these calibers these 914 00:39:27,770 --> 00:39:25,020 phrenology calibers as part of its logo 915 00:39:31,430 --> 00:39:27,780 stamped right on the test so you know 916 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:31,440 they've adopted a very blunt measurement 917 00:39:38,300 --> 00:39:34,650 instrument here to try and identify the 918 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:38,310 more gifted students and in illustration 919 00:39:44,230 --> 00:39:40,890 of this fact we point out in the book a 920 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:44,240 number of sample test questions from the 921 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:48,450 1960s in science particularly in physics 922 00:39:52,569 --> 00:39:49,770 which is kind of my you know my 923 00:39:55,329 --> 00:39:52,579 bailiwick where the answer is 924 00:39:58,179 --> 00:39:55,339 the SAT that the Educational Testing 925 00:40:01,749 --> 00:39:58,189 Service wanted were quite patently and 926 00:40:04,179 --> 00:40:01,759 simply wrong okay and they were taken to 927 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:04,189 task at the time by a mathematician by 928 00:40:09,459 --> 00:40:06,650 the name of banished Hoffman who wrote a 929 00:40:12,849 --> 00:40:09,469 wonderful book called the fallacy of 930 00:40:14,769 --> 00:40:12,859 testing all right and Hoffman just to 931 00:40:16,749 --> 00:40:14,779 let you know who he was he was a member 932 00:40:18,459 --> 00:40:16,759 of the Institute for Advanced Study he 933 00:40:21,429 --> 00:40:18,469 was a personal friend of Albert Einstein 934 00:40:24,279 --> 00:40:21,439 so this guy is no fly-by-night and he 935 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:24,289 just absolutely savages the Educational 936 00:40:27,959 --> 00:40:25,729 Testing Service on some of these 937 00:40:31,299 --> 00:40:27,969 questions but he points out in one case 938 00:40:34,359 --> 00:40:31,309 he had a student who had taken the SAT 939 00:40:37,809 --> 00:40:34,369 and also taken a test a standardized 940 00:40:41,949 --> 00:40:37,819 test for a National Merit Scholarship in 941 00:40:44,199 --> 00:40:41,959 which the word intentionally appeared in 942 00:40:46,839 --> 00:40:44,209 a list of words which they were to 943 00:40:49,359 --> 00:40:46,849 identify as being misspelled and the 944 00:40:53,559 --> 00:40:49,369 word intentionally was misspelled with 945 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:53,569 an S all right and the Educational 946 00:40:57,370 --> 00:40:55,729 Testing Service of course wanted the 947 00:41:00,669 --> 00:40:57,380 students to identify this as the 948 00:41:04,779 --> 00:41:00,679 misspelled word but the problem was this 949 00:41:08,709 --> 00:41:04,789 student was smart this student had read 950 00:41:11,739 --> 00:41:08,719 the works of si Hayakawa on the nature 951 00:41:14,169 --> 00:41:11,749 of symbolic logic and so on and so forth 952 00:41:18,059 --> 00:41:14,179 where Hayakawa had intentionally 953 00:41:21,609 --> 00:41:18,069 misspelled that word to create a word 954 00:41:25,539 --> 00:41:21,619 that had a very specific technical 955 00:41:28,660 --> 00:41:25,549 meaning hmm so in other words the word 956 00:41:31,479 --> 00:41:28,670 wasn't misspelled and the student knew 957 00:41:33,699 --> 00:41:31,489 that it wasn't misspelled he just knew 958 00:41:37,509 --> 00:41:33,709 more than the test prepares at the 959 00:41:40,150 --> 00:41:37,519 Educational Testing Service Wow yeah you 960 00:41:42,009 --> 00:41:40,160 see so this is the problem you can have 961 00:41:45,459 --> 00:41:42,019 a committee of experts and there's 962 00:41:48,099 --> 00:41:45,469 always going to be some fallacy of the 963 00:41:50,919 --> 00:41:48,109 footnote somewhere that a bright student 964 00:41:53,620 --> 00:41:50,929 is going to be punished for knowing on 965 00:41:56,949 --> 00:41:53,630 the basis of these standardized tests 966 00:41:59,799 --> 00:41:56,959 because it puts them into the position 967 00:42:02,229 --> 00:41:59,809 of having to guess do they know this or 968 00:42:05,019 --> 00:42:02,239 do they not know this and if they don't 969 00:42:06,250 --> 00:42:05,029 know this then I select this answer but 970 00:42:09,670 --> 00:42:06,260 if they do know this 971 00:42:11,830 --> 00:42:09,680 then I select another answer so it's not 972 00:42:13,930 --> 00:42:11,840 a scientific measure of the students 973 00:42:17,110 --> 00:42:13,940 intelligence it's only a measure of 974 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:17,120 whether or not they can guess what's in 975 00:42:22,180 --> 00:42:19,010 the mind of a committee that they don't 976 00:42:24,910 --> 00:42:22,190 even know and now Bill Gates wants to 977 00:42:26,910 --> 00:42:24,920 put all of this on computers and make 978 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:26,920 the questions themselves individually 979 00:42:33,810 --> 00:42:30,010 adaptable by some algorithms and 980 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:33,820 theories of some anonymous committee no 981 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:39,290 no no boom there it is man ah so to get 982 00:42:43,090 --> 00:42:41,570 a little bit deeper and maybe also tie 983 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:43,100 this into some other work that you've 984 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:45,530 done I've heard you discuss the fairly 985 00:42:51,010 --> 00:42:48,410 complex elements where we see the larger 986 00:42:54,070 --> 00:42:51,020 transhumanist agenda as well as a tie-in 987 00:42:56,020 --> 00:42:54,080 of ancient esoteric doctrine playing a 988 00:42:58,060 --> 00:42:56,030 huge role in the changes that they're 989 00:43:00,490 --> 00:42:58,070 making to us through the schooling 990 00:43:02,530 --> 00:43:00,500 system maybe you can elaborate on that a 991 00:43:06,220 --> 00:43:02,540 bit and help us understand this deeper 992 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:06,230 crossroads well as I'm not quite certain 993 00:43:12,970 --> 00:43:09,650 as to what you're getting at but my fear 994 00:43:16,270 --> 00:43:12,980 is that with this idea of individually 995 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:16,280 adaptive computerized standardized tests 996 00:43:23,820 --> 00:43:19,090 that what they're building out is 997 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:23,830 basically two things they're driving to 998 00:43:30,310 --> 00:43:28,370 memes into society the first meme is if 999 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:30,320 it appears on a computer screen it's 1000 00:43:35,710 --> 00:43:33,050 true which would be you know the 21st 1001 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:35,720 century equivalent of if Walter Cronkite 1002 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:37,610 said it on CBS Evening News 1003 00:43:43,990 --> 00:43:40,490 it's true okay or if the New York Times 1004 00:43:46,090 --> 00:43:44,000 says it's true all right now we see that 1005 00:43:48,730 --> 00:43:46,100 mass media paradigm that held sway 1006 00:43:52,240 --> 00:43:48,740 throughout the latter half of the 20th 1007 00:43:54,460 --> 00:43:52,250 century breaking down but what is being 1008 00:43:57,190 --> 00:43:54,470 substituted in its place as if it's on 1009 00:43:59,890 --> 00:43:57,200 the internet it's true if it's on an 1010 00:44:02,830 --> 00:43:59,900 e-book it's true and so on and so forth 1011 00:44:05,490 --> 00:44:02,840 so they're driving that mean in other 1012 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:05,500 words they're driving a dependency on 1013 00:44:13,750 --> 00:44:09,890 machines and they're driving a kind of 1014 00:44:15,220 --> 00:44:13,760 intellectual passivity before the agenda 1015 00:44:19,030 --> 00:44:15,230 here but the other thing that they're 1016 00:44:19,630 --> 00:44:19,040 doing in my mind Gregg is they're also 1017 00:44:29,110 --> 00:44:19,640 try 1018 00:44:32,230 --> 00:44:29,120 create the acceptability of the merger 1019 00:44:34,720 --> 00:44:32,240 of man and machine and to me that is the 1020 00:44:36,910 --> 00:44:34,730 most disturbing thing because you see 1021 00:44:39,940 --> 00:44:36,920 the transhumanist wanting to implant 1022 00:44:42,340 --> 00:44:39,950 people with microchips and so on and so 1023 00:44:44,050 --> 00:44:42,350 forth or download and upload memories 1024 00:44:46,300 --> 00:44:44,060 into computers so that they can have 1025 00:44:48,070 --> 00:44:46,310 their virtual immortality and you know 1026 00:44:50,580 --> 00:44:48,080 all of this happy nonsense 1027 00:44:55,090 --> 00:44:50,590 to me that's the most frightening thing 1028 00:44:56,530 --> 00:44:55,100 because in that kind of environment what 1029 00:44:59,230 --> 00:44:56,540 you're taking out of the learning 1030 00:45:01,600 --> 00:44:59,240 process itself is the human mentor of 1031 00:45:05,260 --> 00:45:01,610 the teacher the professor would whatever 1032 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:05,270 you're taking out of the process the 1033 00:45:10,690 --> 00:45:07,490 human element and you're substituting a 1034 00:45:13,150 --> 00:45:10,700 very mechanistic element you're reducing 1035 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:13,160 the student to a machine you're reducing 1036 00:45:18,100 --> 00:45:15,170 the student to an algorithm and this is 1037 00:45:21,250 --> 00:45:18,110 what I find to be the real heart of the 1038 00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:21,260 problem here and if we can go a step 1039 00:45:26,950 --> 00:45:24,650 further and envision this philosophy in 1040 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:26,960 place say in the next century well why 1041 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:29,570 even bother having a school where you 1042 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:31,970 interact with other human beings why not 1043 00:45:35,350 --> 00:45:33,890 just learn online at home and there are 1044 00:45:37,570 --> 00:45:35,360 some places doing this already 1045 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:37,580 mmm-hmm there are some places you know 1046 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:39,290 there they're not building libraries 1047 00:45:43,450 --> 00:45:41,090 full of old-fashioned things called 1048 00:45:45,250 --> 00:45:43,460 books and you know where you're 1049 00:45:47,290 --> 00:45:45,260 interacting with other old-fashioned 1050 00:45:49,750 --> 00:45:47,300 things like students and teachers you're 1051 00:45:51,550 --> 00:45:49,760 doing this all online right you know 1052 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:51,560 I've got news for people I write all of 1053 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:53,450 these books but most of the information 1054 00:45:56,980 --> 00:45:56,330 that are in my books you cannot find on 1055 00:45:59,320 --> 00:45:56,990 the Internet 1056 00:46:00,940 --> 00:45:59,330 they're in old books they're in obscure 1057 00:46:03,730 --> 00:46:00,950 books you know they're in books that 1058 00:46:07,420 --> 00:46:03,740 that you have to literally buy and mark 1059 00:46:09,700 --> 00:46:07,430 and read right so they're also the other 1060 00:46:11,110 --> 00:46:09,710 transhumanist impulse the third thing I 1061 00:46:13,990 --> 00:46:11,120 think they're driving here is they are 1062 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:14,000 attempting by means of all of this to 1063 00:46:20,620 --> 00:46:17,690 cut people off from their own culture 1064 00:46:23,740 --> 00:46:20,630 and tradition and to me that is the 1065 00:46:26,350 --> 00:46:23,750 central core of the problem because in 1066 00:46:29,070 --> 00:46:26,360 the absence of a culture and tradition 1067 00:46:31,650 --> 00:46:29,080 basically anything goes 1068 00:46:34,110 --> 00:46:31,660 yeah well said those definitely are 1069 00:46:36,060 --> 00:46:34,120 major problems and you know those old 1070 00:46:39,300 --> 00:46:36,070 physical books can't be changed the way 1071 00:46:42,090 --> 00:46:39,310 digital Kindle books can bingo bingo 1072 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:42,100 bingo yeah I tell people all the time 1073 00:46:47,190 --> 00:46:45,010 Greg that the only canonical version in 1074 00:46:51,510 --> 00:46:47,200 other words the only authoritative 1075 00:46:54,750 --> 00:46:51,520 version of my books is the printed hard 1076 00:46:57,990 --> 00:46:54,760 copy it is not the real you know I 1077 00:47:01,200 --> 00:46:58,000 format my books myself on my computer to 1078 00:47:04,950 --> 00:47:01,210 look a certain way on the page and 1079 00:47:07,650 --> 00:47:04,960 that's all eradicated on an e-book and 1080 00:47:10,350 --> 00:47:07,660 more importantly on an e-book if you're 1081 00:47:12,150 --> 00:47:10,360 using that as your source what page do 1082 00:47:14,550 --> 00:47:12,160 you cite what's the page number that 1083 00:47:17,220 --> 00:47:14,560 it's on right you know it changes 1084 00:47:21,270 --> 00:47:17,230 everything and I was taught when you're 1085 00:47:24,660 --> 00:47:21,280 citing things you cite as specifically 1086 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:24,670 as possible so this is the other thing 1087 00:47:31,140 --> 00:47:27,130 that they're doing in American education 1088 00:47:35,070 --> 00:47:31,150 I've ranted and raved on this a lot the 1089 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:35,080 standards now for citation of a text the 1090 00:47:42,030 --> 00:47:39,130 so-called MLA or APA style manuals would 1091 00:47:44,330 --> 00:47:42,040 not have been acceptable when I was 1092 00:47:48,030 --> 00:47:44,340 going to public school as an accurate 1093 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:48,040 citation when I cite it's the author 1094 00:47:52,260 --> 00:47:50,410 it's the publisher it's the place of 1095 00:47:54,900 --> 00:47:52,270 publication it was the year that it's 1096 00:47:58,590 --> 00:47:54,910 published the Edition if it's there and 1097 00:48:01,710 --> 00:47:58,600 the precise page on which you can find 1098 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:01,720 either the point I'm referencing or the 1099 00:48:07,130 --> 00:48:04,210 quotation I'm using 1100 00:48:09,349 --> 00:48:07,140 but modern methods of citation 1101 00:48:11,790 --> 00:48:09,359 oftentimes particularly in education 1102 00:48:14,190 --> 00:48:11,800 departments believe it or not don't 1103 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:14,200 require you to cite the page you simply 1104 00:48:19,079 --> 00:48:17,050 cite the author and the year and then 1105 00:48:21,210 --> 00:48:19,089 you have to flip back to the biography 1106 00:48:23,550 --> 00:48:21,220 and there you find lo and behold you're 1107 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:23,560 citing a 500 page book and just telling 1108 00:48:27,930 --> 00:48:25,450 the poor person on the other hand go 1109 00:48:32,910 --> 00:48:27,940 read this 500 page book it's in there 1110 00:48:34,740 --> 00:48:32,920 somewhere you know to me this is you 1111 00:48:37,109 --> 00:48:34,750 know if I were to have received or 1112 00:48:39,030 --> 00:48:37,119 submitted a paper like that when I was 1113 00:48:42,270 --> 00:48:39,040 in high school guess what grade I would 1114 00:48:42,990 --> 00:48:42,280 have received for it not a good one not 1115 00:48:45,810 --> 00:48:43,000 a good one 1116 00:48:48,390 --> 00:48:45,820 this is Conor's in my world Lit class 1117 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:48,400 and Lincoln senior high school in Sioux 1118 00:48:52,890 --> 00:48:50,410 Falls South Dakota would have handed 1119 00:48:58,589 --> 00:48:52,900 that paper back to me with a great big 1120 00:49:00,810 --> 00:48:58,599 red letter F and rightly so but this is 1121 00:49:03,359 --> 00:49:00,820 how the standards have changed right 1122 00:49:05,730 --> 00:49:03,369 since I was going to school to what's 1123 00:49:08,070 --> 00:49:05,740 happening now students aren't even aware 1124 00:49:11,510 --> 00:49:08,080 of the fact that what they're being 1125 00:49:14,630 --> 00:49:11,520 taught in terms of citations itself is 1126 00:49:18,810 --> 00:49:14,640 slipshod they're not even aware that 1127 00:49:22,650 --> 00:49:18,820 there was another method that demanded 1128 00:49:24,750 --> 00:49:22,660 extreme accuracy from citation and the 1129 00:49:29,430 --> 00:49:24,760 reason it demanded it is that's just 1130 00:49:33,540 --> 00:49:29,440 common courtesy now weird evolving on 1131 00:49:35,940 --> 00:49:33,550 all sides manage yes identity yes mam so 1132 00:49:38,579 --> 00:49:35,950 on another note I had here about where 1133 00:49:40,620 --> 00:49:38,589 this might tie into I guess potentially 1134 00:49:43,470 --> 00:49:40,630 the elite belief systems though is that 1135 00:49:45,780 --> 00:49:43,480 they want to reverse the stages of 1136 00:49:48,780 --> 00:49:45,790 esoteric man or the levels of Adam and 1137 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:48,790 return to and drogyny yeah can you get 1138 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:51,010 into that a little bit well that's not 1139 00:49:55,140 --> 00:49:52,570 something we actually covered in the 1140 00:49:56,790 --> 00:49:55,150 common core book right I had a co-author 1141 00:49:59,460 --> 00:49:56,800 in a book 1142 00:50:01,790 --> 00:49:59,470 his name is dr. Scott to heart he's also 1143 00:50:03,900 --> 00:50:01,800 in education and we wrote a book called 1144 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:03,910 transhumanism and the subtitle is a 1145 00:50:09,170 --> 00:50:05,890 grimoire of our chemical agendas because 1146 00:50:13,170 --> 00:50:09,180 there's a basic kind of esoteric 1147 00:50:15,660 --> 00:50:13,180 doctrine of mankind that you find in 1148 00:50:17,730 --> 00:50:15,670 various esoteric systems and we we kind 1149 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:17,740 of had to boil it all down but basically 1150 00:50:21,860 --> 00:50:18,570 there's 1151 00:50:23,420 --> 00:50:21,870 four stages of the devolution of man and 1152 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:23,430 this this is very important for people 1153 00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:25,290 to understand the ancient cosmological 1154 00:50:30,050 --> 00:50:28,290 system as opposed to the modern one was 1155 00:50:31,780 --> 00:50:30,060 not a system of evolution but of 1156 00:50:34,250 --> 00:50:31,790 devolution all right 1157 00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:34,260 evolution assumes you know eternal 1158 00:50:38,450 --> 00:50:36,930 upward progress the survival of the 1159 00:50:41,090 --> 00:50:38,460 fittest and so on and so forth 1160 00:50:43,310 --> 00:50:41,100 devolution assumes that we were once 1161 00:50:46,070 --> 00:50:43,320 much higher in terms of our intellectual 1162 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:46,080 and moral capacity than we are now so 1163 00:50:51,830 --> 00:50:48,090 there were essentially four stages in 1164 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:51,840 that conceptual scaffolding for the 1165 00:50:56,750 --> 00:50:54,690 devolution of man at the top and most 1166 00:50:59,570 --> 00:50:56,760 advanced stage there was this idea of 1167 00:51:03,200 --> 00:50:59,580 the androgen in other words mankind in 1168 00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:03,210 his truest form combined both sexes into 1169 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:07,130 kind of a chi miracle creature and then 1170 00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:11,090 mankind begins to fall so to speak into 1171 00:51:17,240 --> 00:51:14,970 materiality and during that fall of 1172 00:51:20,870 --> 00:51:17,250 course the sexes become divided so the 1173 00:51:24,740 --> 00:51:20,880 next lower stage would be mineral man 1174 00:51:26,570 --> 00:51:24,750 you know the fall into inert matter and 1175 00:51:29,420 --> 00:51:26,580 then the next stage lower than that 1176 00:51:32,060 --> 00:51:29,430 would be vegetable man and then the 1177 00:51:36,350 --> 00:51:32,070 lowest stage would be animal man which 1178 00:51:39,110 --> 00:51:36,360 is what we are now all right so you have 1179 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:39,120 in that ancient cosmological view if you 1180 00:51:42,950 --> 00:51:41,010 look at it carefully there are certain 1181 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:42,960 features of it that resemble the modern 1182 00:51:49,580 --> 00:51:46,490 one in that there's a kind of immaterial 1183 00:51:52,580 --> 00:51:49,590 pre-existence and then you have the 1184 00:51:54,770 --> 00:51:52,590 beginning of inert matter then you have 1185 00:51:56,630 --> 00:51:54,780 the appearance of simple life in the 1186 00:51:58,610 --> 00:51:56,640 form of vegetative life and then you 1187 00:52:01,580 --> 00:51:58,620 have the emergence of more complex life 1188 00:52:04,730 --> 00:52:01,590 so in that sense it does resemble the 1189 00:52:07,970 --> 00:52:04,740 modern cosmology but if you look 1190 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:07,980 carefully at some of the esoteric 1191 00:52:13,580 --> 00:52:10,650 doctrines and in particular alchemy what 1192 00:52:17,710 --> 00:52:13,590 you see is an attempt to reassigned the 1193 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:17,720 latter and to go back up to the state of 1194 00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:20,130 androgyny which is the highest 1195 00:52:26,390 --> 00:52:23,570 expression of man well I suspect 1196 00:52:28,610 --> 00:52:26,400 although I again I want to stress your 1197 00:52:32,359 --> 00:52:28,620 grade I have no evidence for this but I 1198 00:52:37,999 --> 00:52:32,369 suspect that what lurks behind 1199 00:52:40,599 --> 00:52:38,009 and the drive of so many people in the 1200 00:52:43,970 --> 00:52:40,609 progressive movement in various 1201 00:52:46,339 --> 00:52:43,980 countries is that there's a solid core 1202 00:52:47,900 --> 00:52:46,349 of people who have a very different 1203 00:52:50,089 --> 00:52:47,910 agenda from what they're telling people 1204 00:52:54,620 --> 00:52:50,099 publicly and that what they're trying to 1205 00:52:57,319 --> 00:52:54,630 do is to socially engineer society in 1206 00:52:59,779 --> 00:52:57,329 order to reach back and achieve that 1207 00:53:02,660 --> 00:52:59,789 state of androgynous consciousness I 1208 00:53:07,519 --> 00:53:02,670 think this is what's driving this war 1209 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:07,529 against the sexes be it male or female a 1210 00:53:11,809 --> 00:53:09,690 note I said sex is not gender that's 1211 00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:11,819 another little fast switcheroo that 1212 00:53:15,589 --> 00:53:13,890 they've that they've played on us you 1213 00:53:17,690 --> 00:53:15,599 know I remember filling out forms when I 1214 00:53:20,150 --> 00:53:17,700 was a kid what's your sex are you male 1215 00:53:22,370 --> 00:53:20,160 or female but now it's gender and gender 1216 00:53:25,069 --> 00:53:22,380 is a linguistic property it's not a 1217 00:53:27,710 --> 00:53:25,079 sexual one you know there's Jews genders 1218 00:53:30,380 --> 00:53:27,720 in in the inflected languages like Greek 1219 00:53:33,650 --> 00:53:30,390 or Latin or Russian or German or Spanish 1220 00:53:36,769 --> 00:53:33,660 or French and so on sexuality is very 1221 00:53:39,859 --> 00:53:36,779 very different so they're pulling a kind 1222 00:53:41,690 --> 00:53:39,869 of a fast one with this gender agenda 1223 00:53:45,650 --> 00:53:41,700 because what they're trying to do in my 1224 00:53:48,650 --> 00:53:45,660 opinion is engineer a kind of sex free 1225 00:53:52,190 --> 00:53:48,660 or to put it even more accurately and 1226 00:53:55,489 --> 00:53:52,200 drogyn as consciousness hmm and that I 1227 00:53:58,460 --> 00:53:55,499 find very very disturbing because once 1228 00:54:00,710 --> 00:53:58,470 you get people to accept this and get 1229 00:54:03,620 --> 00:54:00,720 them living in a world of linguistic 1230 00:54:06,859 --> 00:54:03,630 virtual reality rather than in the real 1231 00:54:11,269 --> 00:54:06,869 world then you've severed people away 1232 00:54:13,549 --> 00:54:11,279 from from a mooring that can anchor them 1233 00:54:16,009 --> 00:54:13,559 in reality and you're creating a 1234 00:54:17,870 --> 00:54:16,019 situation where almost anything goes you 1235 00:54:21,559 --> 00:54:17,880 know this to me is very very disturbing 1236 00:54:24,890 --> 00:54:21,569 you see it almost everywhere now and to 1237 00:54:27,529 --> 00:54:24,900 me sexuality is one of those things that 1238 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:27,539 grounds you in reality in fact it's 1239 00:54:34,249 --> 00:54:30,690 probably the thing that grounds you in 1240 00:54:36,140 --> 00:54:34,259 reality so I find that whole agenda very 1241 00:54:37,609 --> 00:54:36,150 very you know don't take me wrong here 1242 00:54:39,259 --> 00:54:37,619 I'm not against gay people or 1243 00:54:40,819 --> 00:54:39,269 transgendered people or anything like 1244 00:54:43,549 --> 00:54:40,829 that that's not what I'm saying I'm 1245 00:54:46,220 --> 00:54:43,559 saying that this linguistic agenda of 1246 00:54:48,530 --> 00:54:46,230 theirs is ultimately going 1247 00:54:51,620 --> 00:54:48,540 hurt everybody no matter where you fall 1248 00:54:53,750 --> 00:54:51,630 on the sexual spectrum that's my point 1249 00:54:55,700 --> 00:54:53,760 it's a linguistic agenda it's a creation 1250 00:54:56,930 --> 00:54:55,710 of a kind of virtual reality that 1251 00:55:00,859 --> 00:54:56,940 benefits no one 1252 00:55:03,109 --> 00:55:00,869 in the long run yeah man well said and 1253 00:55:04,700 --> 00:55:03,119 that high-octane speculation that kind 1254 00:55:06,980 --> 00:55:04,710 of stuff that is the sweet spot for me 1255 00:55:08,630 --> 00:55:06,990 it's a bit over my head at times but so 1256 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:08,640 interesting and I like the way you break 1257 00:55:13,609 --> 00:55:11,850 that stuff down so I want to get into 1258 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:13,619 your other book that came out this year 1259 00:55:17,750 --> 00:55:15,450 but before we close out on the education 1260 00:55:20,060 --> 00:55:17,760 topic what sort of advice would you have 1261 00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:20,070 for teachers or even parents who are 1262 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:22,290 being made aware of these problems and 1263 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:24,570 need some better options for their kids 1264 00:55:32,410 --> 00:55:27,690 well the first thing I would I would 1265 00:55:34,910 --> 00:55:32,420 advise is we are to the point I think 1266 00:55:37,670 --> 00:55:34,920 socially and culturally and as a 1267 00:55:40,940 --> 00:55:37,680 civilization where we are just going to 1268 00:55:42,980 --> 00:55:40,950 have to stand up and say no we're fast 1269 00:55:45,140 --> 00:55:42,990 approaching the time that we are going 1270 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:45,150 to have to make some very hefty 1271 00:55:49,370 --> 00:55:47,130 decisions on what we're willing to die 1272 00:55:51,260 --> 00:55:49,380 for and I'm putting it that bluntly 1273 00:55:54,140 --> 00:55:51,270 because I believe the crisis is fast 1274 00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:54,150 approaching that state of profundity but 1275 00:55:58,730 --> 00:55:55,890 the other thing I think the people that 1276 00:56:00,140 --> 00:55:58,740 once you've made that determination that 1277 00:56:02,450 --> 00:56:00,150 you're just going to stand up and say no 1278 00:56:05,540 --> 00:56:02,460 to all of this that the next thing you 1279 00:56:09,550 --> 00:56:05,550 have to do is start to organize how can 1280 00:56:12,250 --> 00:56:09,560 we resist all of this in a way that is 1281 00:56:15,109 --> 00:56:12,260 so to speak particularly in this country 1282 00:56:18,910 --> 00:56:15,119 constitutionally approved and the way I 1283 00:56:25,660 --> 00:56:18,920 would suggest is that individual states 1284 00:56:27,859 --> 00:56:25,670 now need to the point special attorneys 1285 00:56:32,540 --> 00:56:27,869 prosecutors or whatever you wish to call 1286 00:56:34,970 --> 00:56:32,550 them that will will on the basis of 10th 1287 00:56:38,510 --> 00:56:34,980 and 14th amendment and so on and so 1288 00:56:40,750 --> 00:56:38,520 forth assert the right of state 1289 00:56:43,370 --> 00:56:40,760 sovereignty against federal mandates 1290 00:56:45,620 --> 00:56:43,380 whatever federal mandates may come down 1291 00:56:48,490 --> 00:56:45,630 in all of these you know huge omnibus 1292 00:56:51,890 --> 00:56:48,500 bills that nobody in Congress reads 1293 00:56:54,109 --> 00:56:51,900 these have to be challenged all the way 1294 00:56:57,030 --> 00:56:54,119 up to the Supreme Court just tie them up 1295 00:56:59,370 --> 00:56:57,040 in litigation 1296 00:57:02,070 --> 00:56:59,380 we saw something of that effort with 1297 00:57:04,350 --> 00:57:02,080 Obamacare but as far as I'm concerned 1298 00:57:06,540 --> 00:57:04,360 they rolled over way too early with that 1299 00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:06,550 they should keep harping on that but 1300 00:57:12,420 --> 00:57:09,490 every other federal mandate you know the 1301 00:57:15,420 --> 00:57:12,430 forced vaccinations common core you know 1302 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:15,430 everything that is tied to a federal 1303 00:57:19,950 --> 00:57:17,650 mandate of how states must spend their 1304 00:57:23,940 --> 00:57:19,960 money should now be tied up in 1305 00:57:27,330 --> 00:57:23,950 litigation absolutely that to me is the 1306 00:57:31,140 --> 00:57:27,340 most practical way in the short term 1307 00:57:33,750 --> 00:57:31,150 that I think that we can respond to some 1308 00:57:36,260 --> 00:57:33,760 of this stuff and start fighting this 1309 00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:36,270 this trend towards massive global 1310 00:57:43,140 --> 00:57:39,250 centralization which as we can see isn't 1311 00:57:45,630 --> 00:57:43,150 working anywhere it's not working in 1312 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:45,640 Europe it's not working here it didn't 1313 00:57:48,980 --> 00:57:47,530 work in Russia the Russians learned that 1314 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:48,990 lesson so you know they're the ones 1315 00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:52,330 crying the loudest lately about this 1316 00:57:57,060 --> 00:57:55,170 trend towards mr. global and letting 1317 00:57:59,370 --> 00:57:57,070 multinational corporations run 1318 00:58:01,500 --> 00:57:59,380 everything over and over you're hearing 1319 00:58:03,750 --> 00:58:01,510 from Russia that no there is the 1320 00:58:05,910 --> 00:58:03,760 sovereign nation is not obsolete thank 1321 00:58:08,490

Rockefeller and mr. 1322 00:58:09,870 --> 00:58:08,500 Brzezinski and by golly we're going to 1323 00:58:11,130 --> 00:58:09,880 stick to it and we're going to defend 1324 00:58:13,710 --> 00:58:11,140 our country and we're going to defend 1325 00:58:17,210 --> 00:58:13,720 our culture and incidentally isn't it 1326 00:58:19,950 --> 00:58:17,220 interesting that Russia Russia is 1327 00:58:22,260 --> 00:58:19,960 playing host to this year's 1328 00:58:23,870 --> 00:58:22,270 international homeschooling conference 1329 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:23,880 mmm 1330 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:26,530 now turn the clock back thirty years 1331 00:58:31,970 --> 00:58:29,290 folks and ask yourself if that would 1332 00:58:35,460 --> 00:58:31,980 have been possible in Brezhnev's or 1333 00:58:38,910 --> 00:58:35,470 Cherney anko's or an drop-offs or even 1334 00:58:41,250 --> 00:58:38,920 mr. Gorbachev to Russia no certainly not 1335 00:58:44,370 --> 00:58:41,260 so in other words it's like we're in 1336 00:58:46,590 --> 00:58:44,380 this upside-down world here the United 1337 00:58:48,690 --> 00:58:46,600 States is looking progressively more and 1338 00:58:51,270 --> 00:58:48,700 more like the United Socialist States of 1339 00:58:53,970 --> 00:58:51,280 America the u.s. SA and Russia 1340 00:58:56,340 --> 00:58:53,980 you know if they even proudly display 1341 00:59:00,660 --> 00:58:56,350 the Romanoff eagle on their flags at the 1342 00:59:06,510 --> 00:59:00,670 time Russia is embarked on this weird 1343 00:59:09,210 --> 00:59:06,520 new experiment in culture and nationhood 1344 00:59:11,910 --> 00:59:09,220 a kind of post-postmodern experiment as 1345 00:59:14,070 --> 00:59:11,920 I like to call it so it you know we're 1346 00:59:16,770 --> 00:59:14,080 just looking at this huge inversion this 1347 00:59:19,410 --> 00:59:16,780 is the fifth take like yeah you're right 1348 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:19,420 it does seem quite backwards I mean the 1349 00:59:22,290 --> 00:59:21,250 whole schooling system does and it seems 1350 00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:22,300 like we're gonna have to resort to 1351 00:59:27,690 --> 00:59:24,970 handing out those secret passwords to 1352 00:59:28,860 --> 00:59:27,700 the underground educational speakeasies 1353 00:59:31,710 --> 00:59:28,870 before too long 1354 00:59:34,530 --> 00:59:31,720 waffles yes I I definitely think Greg I 1355 00:59:37,620 --> 00:59:34,540 definitely think that's coming oh no you 1356 00:59:40,650 --> 00:59:37,630 know already homeschooling has grown in 1357 00:59:43,230 --> 00:59:40,660 this country enormous Lea in the past 1358 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:43,240 few years I think what's going to happen 1359 00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:45,610 eventually is that those teachers in the 1360 00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:48,130 pub I met a teacher just three weeks ago 1361 00:59:54,150 --> 00:59:51,610 Greg that told me that she quit teaching 1362 00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:54,160 because she just could not stand Common 1363 01:00:00,270 --> 00:59:57,370 Core because she had to conform to a 1364 01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:00,280 lesson plan schedule that she hadn't 1365 01:00:06,980 --> 01:00:04,570 even made for her own students now what 1366 01:00:10,380 --> 01:00:06,990 you know tell me that you can centralize 1367 01:00:12,270 --> 01:00:10,390 things to that point so what happens is 1368 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:12,280 you're driving out the good teachers 1369 01:00:16,830 --> 01:00:14,770 from the education system and trust me 1370 01:00:19,170 --> 01:00:16,840 eventually the people that can afford it 1371 01:00:21,330 --> 01:00:19,180 are going to start picking up those 1372 01:00:23,610 --> 01:00:21,340 teachers and you're going to see a 1373 01:00:26,850 --> 01:00:23,620 collapse of the system simply due to 1374 01:00:29,460 --> 01:00:26,860 market pressures mm-hmm because this 1375 01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:29,470 system that we have now that we've 1376 01:00:35,250 --> 01:00:32,050 erected since you know the turn of the 1377 01:00:39,290 --> 01:00:35,260 late 19th century this system isn't 1378 01:00:43,590 --> 01:00:39,300 working it's producing a bumper crop of 1379 01:00:46,140 --> 01:00:43,600 stupid people who are more focused on 1380 01:00:48,990 --> 01:00:46,150 the latest football game than they are 1381 01:00:51,570 --> 01:00:49,000 on the Constitution or on physics or 1382 01:00:53,940 --> 01:00:51,580 mathematics or literature or music or 1383 01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:53,950 whatever and by music incidentally folks 1384 01:00:58,260 --> 01:00:56,650 I don't mean the latest band you know I 1385 01:01:01,290 --> 01:00:58,270 mean something going back a couple 1386 01:01:03,870 --> 01:01:01,300 hundred years right right so you know we 1387 01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:03,880 have a bumper crop of idiots in this 1388 01:01:08,550 --> 01:01:05,770 country and more and more I think the 1389 01:01:11,460 --> 01:01:08,560 people that have the money recognize 1390 01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:11,470 this and they're simply pulling their 1391 01:01:15,210 --> 01:01:13,570 kids out of this public education 1392 01:01:18,630 --> 01:01:15,220 nightmare and again that's that comes 1393 01:01:21,930 --> 01:01:18,640 down to just saying no 1394 01:01:24,299 --> 01:01:21,940 and you said it man so to segue over 1395 01:01:26,749 --> 01:01:24,309 into hidden finance rogue networks and 1396 01:01:29,700 --> 01:01:26,759 secret sorcery the fastest international 1397 01:01:31,259 --> 01:01:29,710 9/11 and penetrated operations I have to 1398 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:31,269 say that doing a show like this over the 1399 01:01:34,829 --> 01:01:33,730 years I've gotten a little bit of 9/11 1400 01:01:37,470 --> 01:01:34,839 fatigue weather 1401 01:01:40,380 --> 01:01:37,480 whether by accident or design or a 1402 01:01:43,739 --> 01:01:40,390 little bit of both Hillary Clinton 1403 01:01:46,559 --> 01:01:43,749 Donald Trump fatigue I know oh yeah yeah 1404 01:01:48,269 --> 01:01:46,569 Touche and you know after having dr. 1405 01:01:50,339 --> 01:01:48,279 Judy Wood here and making her case for 1406 01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:50,349 exotic energy weapons being used on the 1407 01:01:54,779 --> 01:01:52,450 Twin Towers I kind of expected to close 1408 01:01:56,999 --> 01:01:54,789 the books on it for a while but you dig 1409 01:01:58,739 --> 01:01:57,009 up some really interesting stuff in your 1410 01:02:01,680 --> 01:01:58,749 investigation it's got to be talked 1411 01:02:03,299 --> 01:02:01,690 about and it can be complex but just 1412 01:02:06,180 --> 01:02:03,309 give us a little overview of the Joseph 1413 01:02:10,499 --> 01:02:06,190 Farrell approach to the 9/11 events well 1414 01:02:14,039 --> 01:02:10,509 my approach is essentially similar to 1415 01:02:16,859 --> 01:02:14,049 other 9/11 truth researchers but my 1416 01:02:18,809 --> 01:02:16,869 conclusions are very very different in 1417 01:02:20,999 --> 01:02:18,819 any criminal investigation particularly 1418 01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:21,009 where murder is involved you want to 1419 01:02:26,279 --> 01:02:23,410 know what the murder weapon is right and 1420 01:02:29,279 --> 01:02:26,289 in the case of the Twin Towers if you 1421 01:02:33,180 --> 01:02:29,289 look at the 9/11 truth community there 1422 01:02:36,479 --> 01:02:33,190 has been literally a an inability of 1423 01:02:38,220 --> 01:02:36,489 people to talk to each other civilly you 1424 01:02:41,249 --> 01:02:38,230 know you mentioned dr. Judy wood well 1425 01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:41,259 there are some people out there in the 1426 01:02:46,170 --> 01:02:43,450 9/11 truth community that absolutely 1427 01:02:48,509 --> 01:02:46,180 hate her and through you know for 1428 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:48,519 proposing the idea right we should be on 1429 01:02:54,479 --> 01:02:51,730 the same side yeah and you know how she 1430 01:02:57,420 --> 01:02:54,489 manages to keep her head and remain 1431 01:02:59,940 --> 01:02:57,430 courteous to these people I just don't 1432 01:03:01,430 --> 01:02:59,950 know but but you know they've come up 1433 01:03:04,589 --> 01:03:01,440 with some of the most ludicrous 1434 01:03:07,079 --> 01:03:04,599 criticisms of her you know I read one 1435 01:03:09,539 --> 01:03:07,089 guy proposing the model of many nukes as 1436 01:03:11,999 --> 01:03:09,549 the mechanism for the destruction of the 1437 01:03:13,620 --> 01:03:12,009 twin towers just absolutely raking her 1438 01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:13,630 over the coals because she didn't 1439 01:03:18,479 --> 01:03:16,450 provide a model for how she thought this 1440 01:03:21,749 --> 01:03:18,489 exotic energy weaponry would work well 1441 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:21,759 my question back to him is explain to me 1442 01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:23,890 how a mini nuke works what's the 1443 01:03:28,019 --> 01:03:25,930 critical mass what's the nuclear fuel 1444 01:03:30,329 --> 01:03:28,029 what's the neutron cross-section what's 1445 01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:30,339 the half-life and so on and so forth and 1446 01:03:35,370 --> 01:03:31,810 they'd never do 1447 01:03:37,740 --> 01:03:35,380 so you know it's tit for tat as far as 1448 01:03:39,570 --> 01:03:37,750 I'm concerned what she's trying to do is 1449 01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:39,580 simply propose a model that she thinks 1450 01:03:42,810 --> 01:03:41,290 makes sense of certain amounts of the 1451 01:03:44,370 --> 01:03:42,820 evidence and the same with the many new 1452 01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:44,380 people and the same with controlled 1453 01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:46,930 demolition people and so on and so forth 1454 01:03:53,490 --> 01:03:48,850 my approach to the question of the 1455 01:03:56,130 --> 01:03:53,500 murder weapon is that why must we 1456 01:03:59,400 --> 01:03:56,140 conclude when we have evidence for all 1457 01:04:03,420 --> 01:03:59,410 of these models and all of these models 1458 01:04:06,570 --> 01:04:03,430 have certain problems mm-hmm also all 1459 01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:06,580 right so my approach is is it's kind of 1460 01:04:10,620 --> 01:04:08,770 like the old Agatha Christie novel 1461 01:04:12,930 --> 01:04:10,630 Murder on the Orient Express you know 1462 01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:12,940 they made a movie out of this with Peter 1463 01:04:18,390 --> 01:04:15,370 Ustinov and at the end of the movie you 1464 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:18,400 know like all Agatha Christie books the 1465 01:04:24,060 --> 01:04:21,730 detective in this case ikuo Poirot gets 1466 01:04:26,670 --> 01:04:24,070 everybody together in a room and gives 1467 01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:26,680 the solution you know wraps it all up in 1468 01:04:31,770 --> 01:04:29,770 a neat tidy package with a bow on well 1469 01:04:33,980 --> 01:04:31,780 in the case of murder on the Orient 1470 01:04:37,890 --> 01:04:33,990 Express what you had was a case of 1471 01:04:40,830 --> 01:04:37,900 everybody murdering the victim but using 1472 01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:40,840 a different way to do it so in other 1473 01:04:45,390 --> 01:04:43,690 words this to me describes the 9/11 1474 01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:45,400 truth community perfectly because 1475 01:04:51,300 --> 01:04:47,170 they've all assumed that there's only 1476 01:04:54,630 --> 01:04:51,310 one level of deeper player involved in 1477 01:04:59,370 --> 01:04:54,640 9/11 and therefore the murder weapon 1478 01:05:02,160 --> 01:04:59,380 must reflect that player mm-hmm what I'm 1479 01:05:05,610 --> 01:05:02,170 suggesting is that even at the deep 1480 01:05:07,860 --> 01:05:05,620 level of the operation that you might 1481 01:05:10,620 --> 01:05:07,870 have been dealing with a penetrated 1482 01:05:14,790 --> 01:05:10,630 operation and that there might be even 1483 01:05:17,460 --> 01:05:14,800 deeper levels than a second level rogue 1484 01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:17,470 network operating inside the American 1485 01:05:22,170 --> 01:05:19,330 government and how would they signal 1486 01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:22,180 their presence well if they penetrated 1487 01:05:27,870 --> 01:05:25,690 an operation in which they knew that 1488 01:05:30,090 --> 01:05:27,880 some of the mechanisms to take down the 1489 01:05:33,420 --> 01:05:30,100 Twin Towers would be either 1490 01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:33,430 controlled demolitions or nano-thermite 1491 01:05:38,610 --> 01:05:36,370 or many nukes you know the three the 1492 01:05:40,020 --> 01:05:38,620 three standard ones that most 9/11 1493 01:05:42,290 --> 01:05:40,030 truthers accept well how would you 1494 01:05:45,750 --> 01:05:42,300 signal your presence to that group and 1495 01:05:50,580 --> 01:05:45,760 pin it to its own plan like a chest 1496 01:05:53,070 --> 01:05:50,590 well you do so by using a technology 1497 01:05:55,830 --> 01:05:53,080 that signaled to that group that planned 1498 01:05:57,480 --> 01:05:55,840 and orchestrated the event that signaled 1499 01:06:00,650 --> 01:05:57,490 to them that they were facing another 1500 01:06:03,750 --> 01:06:00,660 player that had just revealed itself 1501 01:06:08,580 --> 01:06:03,760 okay and this is what I think actually 1502 01:06:10,830 --> 01:06:08,590 happens you do have I think enough 1503 01:06:13,770 --> 01:06:10,840 signatures of some sort of exotic 1504 01:06:16,530 --> 01:06:13,780 technology there at 9/11 that fall 1505 01:06:18,540 --> 01:06:16,540 outside the three standard mechanisms of 1506 01:06:21,090 --> 01:06:18,550 controlled demolitions be it standard 1507 01:06:23,220 --> 01:06:21,100 explosives nano thermite or mini nukes I 1508 01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:23,230 do think that dr. Wood is absolutely 1509 01:06:30,150 --> 01:06:26,410 correct on this so the real question is 1510 01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:30,160 what does that signify in terms of the 1511 01:06:34,350 --> 01:06:32,410 perpetrators well to me it signifies 1512 01:06:36,900 --> 01:06:34,360 that you're dealing with three levels 1513 01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:36,910 not two you're dealing with the patsies 1514 01:06:41,220 --> 01:06:38,770 you know the people flying the airplanes 1515 01:06:44,550 --> 01:06:41,230 into the buildings at a deeper level 1516 01:06:46,980 --> 01:06:44,560 you're dealing with a rogue network 1517 01:06:50,610 --> 01:06:46,990 within the American intelligence 1518 01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:50,620 community that had the capacity to plan 1519 01:06:55,050 --> 01:06:52,690 the event and to plant controlled 1520 01:06:57,330 --> 01:06:55,060 demolitions or had access to many nukes 1521 01:07:00,390 --> 01:06:57,340 or nano-thermite and so on and so forth 1522 01:07:02,430 --> 01:07:00,400 and what's their goal well their goal is 1523 01:07:04,410 --> 01:07:02,440 to do exactly what happened to inject 1524 01:07:07,110 --> 01:07:04,420 American power into the Middle East 1525 01:07:09,930 --> 01:07:07,120 and this is what they did but the 1526 01:07:13,290 --> 01:07:09,940 problem there is as I've always thought 1527 01:07:16,110 --> 01:07:13,300 Greg is you wouldn't have needed to 1528 01:07:18,450 --> 01:07:16,120 destroy those buildings you would only 1529 01:07:21,990 --> 01:07:18,460 have needed to severely damage them in 1530 01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:22,000 order to create enough of a climate of 1531 01:07:27,300 --> 01:07:24,730 opinion to inject American power in that 1532 01:07:29,700 --> 01:07:27,310 way it's when the building's come down 1533 01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:29,710 with whatever exotic technology that 1534 01:07:34,230 --> 01:07:32,050 brings them down that you're dealing 1535 01:07:36,990 --> 01:07:34,240 with a penetrated operation and 1536 01:07:39,630 --> 01:07:37,000 particularly I think if dr. wood is 1537 01:07:41,910 --> 01:07:39,640 correct and I happen to think she is you 1538 01:07:45,090 --> 01:07:41,920 know I've adhered to the exotic weaponry 1539 01:07:47,730 --> 01:07:45,100 hypothesis myself since 9/11 happened 1540 01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:47,740 you know I watched it happened so that 1541 01:07:53,430 --> 01:07:50,170 was my first thought when I saw what 1542 01:07:55,770 --> 01:07:53,440 happened so you know she's not alone she 1543 01:07:58,230 --> 01:07:55,780 certainly is kind of out there alone on 1544 01:07:59,190 --> 01:07:58,240 her own trying to defend the hypothesis 1545 01:08:01,589 --> 01:07:59,200 but she's certainly 1546 01:08:04,589 --> 01:08:01,599 not the only one that advocated it there 1547 01:08:07,140 --> 01:08:04,599 was another gentleman that did so years 1548 01:08:09,060 --> 01:08:07,150 before she published her book and then 1549 01:08:11,339 --> 01:08:09,070 he later retracted it but you know I 1550 01:08:13,410 --> 01:08:11,349 review what he said in my book very 1551 01:08:17,579 --> 01:08:13,420 carefully so I'm looking at a hair cool 1552 01:08:19,410 --> 01:08:17,589 a Paro Agatha Christie Murder on the 1553 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:19,420 Orient Express type of thing where 1554 01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:23,650 everybody everybody essentially is in on 1555 01:08:28,019 --> 01:08:25,330 the movie but they're in on the murder I 1556 01:08:32,670 --> 01:08:28,029 should say but using a different murder 1557 01:08:36,630 --> 01:08:32,680 weapon yeah oh man I really find this 1558 01:08:39,030 --> 01:08:36,640 penetration pretty exciting but you know 1559 01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:39,040 I guess like most penetrations but um 1560 01:08:43,289 --> 01:08:41,410 you know to break down the three levels 1561 01:08:45,289 --> 01:08:43,299 you say level one we have the patsies 1562 01:08:48,030 --> 01:08:45,299 the hijackers the official narrative 1563 01:08:50,099 --> 01:08:48,040 level 2 we have the planners from within 1564 01:08:52,740 --> 01:08:50,109 the American military apparatus there's 1565 01:08:55,769 --> 01:08:52,750 got to be some and then thirdly this 1566 01:08:57,690 --> 01:08:55,779 fascist international right who seemed 1567 01:09:00,840 --> 01:08:57,700 to flip the script on the other two 1568 01:09:04,740 --> 01:09:00,850 right up at some point that is the best 1569 01:09:07,910 --> 01:09:04,750 and most succinctly reason and the 1570 01:09:10,110 --> 01:09:07,920 people are going to stay fascists 1571 01:09:12,170 --> 01:09:10,120 they're going to think what in the name 1572 01:09:16,499 --> 01:09:12,180 of sense is he talking about well in 1573 01:09:18,329 --> 01:09:16,509 researching the 9/11 phenomenon I 1574 01:09:20,940 --> 01:09:18,339 noticed something that again just 1575 01:09:24,959 --> 01:09:20,950 mystifies me that the 9/11 truth 1576 01:09:27,660 --> 01:09:24,969 community researchers don't pursue you 1577 01:09:29,910 --> 01:09:27,670 know I found this in doing the JFK book 1578 01:09:31,950 --> 01:09:29,920 right whenever they're confronted with a 1579 01:09:35,579 --> 01:09:31,960 mysterious fascist connection what do 1580 01:09:37,680 --> 01:09:35,589 they do they don't investigate so let's 1581 01:09:40,650 --> 01:09:37,690 look at what that connection is and most 1582 01:09:43,829 --> 01:09:40,660 people you know when i from this greg my 1583 01:09:46,170 --> 01:09:43,839 jaw i I literally was sitting here in my 1584 01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:46,180 place you know no one else is in the 1585 01:09:52,530 --> 01:09:47,890 room and I just said out loud you're 1586 01:09:55,380 --> 01:09:52,540 kidding and I dug a little deeper and I 1587 01:09:55,560 --> 01:09:55,390 thought again you've got to be kidding 1588 01:09:58,680 --> 01:09:55,570 me 1589 01:10:02,640 --> 01:09:58,690 you know so I'm just putting out there 1590 01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:02,650 what I found all right let's begin with 1591 01:10:08,970 --> 01:10:06,730 what happens after 9/11 when the 9/11 1592 01:10:11,729 --> 01:10:08,980 truth community goes into full 1593 01:10:12,890 --> 01:10:11,739 skepticism mode of the official 1594 01:10:15,110 --> 01:10:12,900 narrative 1595 01:10:16,580 --> 01:10:15,120 one of the first things that they find a 1596 01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:16,590 fellow by the name of Douglas hops 1597 01:10:21,890 --> 01:10:19,410 occurred did a book called terror land 1598 01:10:23,990 --> 01:10:21,900 alright it's all about the flight school 1599 01:10:26,930 --> 01:10:24,000 that Mohammed Atta and some of his 1600 01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:26,940 cohorts attended in Venice Florida 1601 01:10:35,390 --> 01:10:32,690 alright okay and he found first of all a 1602 01:10:37,970 --> 01:10:35,400 quotation by the then British Prime 1603 01:10:40,460 --> 01:10:37,980 Minister Tony Blair where Blair said 1604 01:10:46,130 --> 01:10:40,470 that al-qaeda is nothing but a global 1605 01:10:48,350 --> 01:10:46,140 network okay now global network implies 1606 01:10:50,870 --> 01:10:48,360 something right off the bat number one 1607 01:10:53,870 --> 01:10:50,880 financing number two organization and 1608 01:10:57,560 --> 01:10:53,880 number three deep deep connections right 1609 01:11:00,260 --> 01:10:57,570 so who could that be now when he says 1610 01:11:02,150 --> 01:11:00,270 Network he could have said power but he 1611 01:11:06,440 --> 01:11:02,160 doesn't say anything to indicate that 1612 01:11:08,570 --> 01:11:06,450 it's a particular nation involved be it 1613 01:11:11,470 --> 01:11:08,580 the Saudis the Israelis the Russians 1614 01:11:14,450 --> 01:11:11,480 United States nobody Jesus says network 1615 01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:14,460 so I dig a little further and I find an 1616 01:11:19,670 --> 01:11:17,610 interesting quotation by a Russian 1617 01:11:22,850 --> 01:11:19,680 economist by the name of dr. Tatiana 1618 01:11:26,810 --> 01:11:22,860 choreography that appeared in Pravda Jim 1619 01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:26,820 Marrs dug this one up and she stated and 1620 01:11:31,790 --> 01:11:28,890 this was approximately I think a couple 1621 01:11:33,410 --> 01:11:31,800 of months before 9/11 and again my 1622 01:11:34,970 --> 01:11:33,420 memory is a little foggy it may be in a 1623 01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:34,980 couple months after but in any case 1624 01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:38,610 within the window she says that the 1625 01:11:44,420 --> 01:11:40,770 United States is going to be attacked on 1626 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:44,430 its own soil in a kind of fake terrorist 1627 01:11:49,850 --> 01:11:47,010 attack but really it's coming from a 1628 01:11:53,480 --> 01:11:49,860 group a small group of very powerful 1629 01:11:57,920 --> 01:11:53,490 people a network she calls it which has 1630 01:12:01,520 --> 01:11:57,930 in excess of 30 trillion dollars huh add 1631 01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:01,530 its disposal to recreate the world the 1632 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:03,810 way they want pretty on the nose yeah 1633 01:12:08,060 --> 01:12:05,850 pretty on those I'm thinking okay here 1634 01:12:10,310 --> 01:12:08,070 we have Tony Blair says it's a network 1635 01:12:12,980 --> 01:12:10,320 and we have a Russian economist writing 1636 01:12:16,280 --> 01:12:12,990 in Pravda that says it's a network okay 1637 01:12:20,330 --> 01:12:16,290 is not a country so in other words we're 1638 01:12:22,850 --> 01:12:20,340 dealing there right off the bat with a 1639 01:12:25,850 --> 01:12:22,860 kind of prima facie indication that 1640 01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:25,860 there's a third level to this thing that 1641 01:12:29,450 --> 01:12:26,610 exceed 1642 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:29,460 any particular nation-state player 1643 01:12:33,650 --> 01:12:32,010 including rogue groups within American 1644 01:12:35,360 --> 01:12:33,660 intelligence now they can certainly be 1645 01:12:38,450 --> 01:12:35,370 connected to that third network we're 1646 01:12:41,330 --> 01:12:38,460 going to get to that so I'm reading 1647 01:12:43,820 --> 01:12:41,340 Daniel hop stickers book called murder 1648 01:12:45,260 --> 01:12:43,830 in terror land or something I forget the 1649 01:12:48,470 --> 01:12:45,270 exact title of the book right off the 1650 01:12:50,390 --> 01:12:48,480 top of my head excellent book hops occur 1651 01:12:52,550 --> 01:12:50,400 goes down and he investigates the flight 1652 01:12:54,590 --> 01:12:52,560 school in Venice Florida and he 1653 01:12:59,270 --> 01:12:54,600 investigates none other than Mohammed 1654 01:13:00,890 --> 01:12:59,280 Atta okay and he points out something 1655 01:13:04,100 --> 01:13:00,900 that floored me 1656 01:13:06,350 --> 01:13:04,110 he points out that most of Mohammed 1657 01:13:10,730 --> 01:13:06,360 Atta's friends that would come to visit 1658 01:13:16,670 --> 01:13:10,740 him weren't Arabs they were people with 1659 01:13:19,310 --> 01:13:16,680 names like Jurgen Hans Wolfgang and so 1660 01:13:20,900 --> 01:13:19,320 on so you know my suspicion needle 1661 01:13:23,540 --> 01:13:20,910 immediately begins to creep into the 1662 01:13:26,240 --> 01:13:23,550 yellow zone so I do a little more 1663 01:13:28,310 --> 01:13:26,250 digging and you discover that Mohammed 1664 01:13:30,020 --> 01:13:28,320 Atta comes to this country from guess 1665 01:13:32,900 --> 01:13:30,030 where he comes to this country from 1666 01:13:36,770 --> 01:13:32,910 Hamburg Germany where he had been living 1667 01:13:39,230 --> 01:13:36,780 for a number of years with an unnamed 1668 01:13:42,440 --> 01:13:39,240 and nobody to my knowledge to this date 1669 01:13:44,480 --> 01:13:42,450 has named this German couple in a 1670 01:13:47,900 --> 01:13:44,490 middle-class neighborhood in Hamburg 1671 01:13:51,770 --> 01:13:47,910 Germany dig a little further you find 1672 01:13:54,110 --> 01:13:51,780 that Mohamed Atta was recruited by again 1673 01:13:54,950 --> 01:13:54,120 an anonymous German couple when he was 1674 01:13:58,820 --> 01:13:54,960 in Cairo 1675 01:14:01,700 --> 01:13:58,830 well recruited for what and why Germans 1676 01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:01,710 you know why not the Muslim Brotherhood 1677 01:14:06,500 --> 01:14:03,210 why not you know 1678 01:14:10,570 --> 01:14:06,510 the Saudis and the Wahabis why not Hamas 1679 01:14:14,510 --> 01:14:10,580 why not Hezbollah but no Germans of them 1680 01:14:17,480 --> 01:14:14,520 now to me right there Greg what what 1681 01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:17,490 this should have sparked in the 9/11 1682 01:14:22,430 --> 01:14:19,770 truth community was a tremendous amount 1683 01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:22,440 of curiosity why is that connection 1684 01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:27,770 there and why has nobody investigated 1685 01:14:33,260 --> 01:14:31,530 well I'll tell you why they probably did 1686 01:14:36,020 --> 01:14:33,270 do a little investigating but were a 1687 01:14:38,150 --> 01:14:36,030 little hesitant to go there dig a little 1688 01:14:40,129 --> 01:14:38,160 further into Mohammed Atta and you 1689 01:14:44,060 --> 01:14:40,139 discover that during his year 1690 01:14:47,719 --> 01:14:44,070 in Germany he was sponsored by a society 1691 01:14:51,199 --> 01:14:47,729 called the Karl Duisburg ghazal Shah and 1692 01:14:53,600 --> 01:14:51,209 when I found that Greg the suspicion 1693 01:14:57,649 --> 01:14:53,610 needle went from yellow to red right 1694 01:15:01,459 --> 01:14:57,659 okay on my suspicion meter because Karl 1695 01:15:04,040 --> 01:15:01,469 Duisburg was one of the founding members 1696 01:15:06,589 --> 01:15:04,050 he was the head of buyer during World 1697 01:15:07,909 --> 01:15:06,599 War one okay that should tell you what 1698 01:15:11,270 --> 01:15:07,919 this guy is 1699 01:15:16,299 --> 01:15:11,280 he becomes a founding member of I G 1700 01:15:19,339 --> 01:15:16,309 Farben and sits on the board okay now 1701 01:15:22,489 --> 01:15:19,349 this means that Muhammad Atta is being 1702 01:15:25,580 --> 01:15:22,499 sponsored in Germany by a society named 1703 01:15:27,949 --> 01:15:25,590 for one of the founders of IG Farben so 1704 01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:27,959 my suspicion meter goes a little further 1705 01:15:33,350 --> 01:15:31,050 into the red zone it's got to yeah it's 1706 01:15:35,479 --> 01:15:33,360 got to you know and you dig into the 1707 01:15:38,629 --> 01:15:35,489 Karl Duisburg society and you find oh 1708 01:15:41,779 --> 01:15:38,639 it's a wonderful society sponsored by 1709 01:15:44,029 --> 01:15:41,789 people like Bill Clinton and Henry 1710 01:15:46,129 --> 01:15:44,039 Kissinger and you know all these big 1711 01:15:49,339 --> 01:15:46,139 German industrialists and so on and so 1712 01:15:52,310 --> 01:15:49,349 forth so we have a society sponsoring 1713 01:15:55,040 --> 01:15:52,320 Mohammad Atta named after an IG Farben 1714 01:15:57,529 --> 01:15:55,050 safty member that's connected to all of 1715 01:16:01,639 --> 01:15:57,539 these let's be honest here globalists 1716 01:16:05,779 --> 01:16:01,649 alright so I did a little further I find 1717 01:16:09,290 --> 01:16:05,789 out that there's a banker involved in 1718 01:16:14,719 --> 01:16:09,300 all of this by the name of Francoise 1719 01:16:20,359 --> 01:16:14,729 Janu ge in oh you D is a Swiss French 1720 01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:20,369 banker he was the banker of record for 1721 01:16:27,409 --> 01:16:24,570 the estates of Adolf Hitler for yosef 1722 01:16:30,229 --> 01:16:27,419 Gibble's he handled all the Nazi 1723 01:16:34,219 --> 01:16:30,239 accounts in Switzerland during and after 1724 01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:34,229 a second clue after the war and Oh 1725 01:16:39,049 --> 01:16:37,050 lookie lookie he has ties to this 1726 01:16:41,659 --> 01:16:39,059 post-war Nazi international I've been 1727 01:16:43,549 --> 01:16:41,669 talking about and Oh looky looky he just 1728 01:16:45,319 --> 01:16:43,559 happens to be the bank roller for a 1729 01:16:48,229 --> 01:16:45,329 number of international terrorist groups 1730 01:16:51,020 --> 01:16:48,239 and Oh looky looky he just happens to be 1731 01:16:52,669 --> 01:16:51,030 the banker for guess who the bin Laden 1732 01:16:57,470 --> 01:16:52,679 family 1733 01:17:01,520 --> 01:16:57,480 ha that connected them to guess what 1734 01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:01,530 Deutsche Bank so in other words I'm 1735 01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:03,210 looking at all of this Greg and I'm 1736 01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:06,090 seeing this suspicious German connection 1737 01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:10,170 here that nobody and I I mean that quite 1738 01:17:16,399 --> 01:17:13,650 literally that nobody to my knowledge 1739 01:17:20,660 --> 01:17:16,409 has ever brought up in connection with 1740 01:17:23,750 --> 01:17:20,670 this unnamed global network that Tony 1741 01:17:26,479 --> 01:17:23,760 Blair and Tatiana Coriana suggested and 1742 01:17:28,820 --> 01:17:26,489 the problem here is whether we like it 1743 01:17:30,709 --> 01:17:28,830 or not when we're dealing with Francoise 1744 01:17:35,060 --> 01:17:30,719 Janu we're dealing with a man who lived 1745 01:17:37,160 --> 01:17:35,070 on up into the 1990s and he was deeply 1746 01:17:40,399 --> 01:17:37,170 connected to all of these different 1747 01:17:42,770 --> 01:17:40,409 fascist groups so it does look to me 1748 01:17:46,550 --> 01:17:42,780 like we're dealing yet again with some 1749 01:17:49,790 --> 01:17:46,560 sort of global for one of the better 1750 01:17:53,090 --> 01:17:49,800 expression fascist mafia that is behind 1751 01:17:55,970 --> 01:17:53,100 this now the problem is could this be 1752 01:18:00,709 --> 01:17:55,980 the group that would have had access to 1753 01:18:03,050 --> 01:18:00,719 an exotic energy technology such as dr. 1754 01:18:05,540 --> 01:18:03,060 wood or the fellow that I review in the 1755 01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:05,550 book have suggested might have been 1756 01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:08,010 involved as one of the quote-unquote 1757 01:18:13,970 --> 01:18:11,130 murder weapons well if you've read any 1758 01:18:15,830 --> 01:18:13,980 of my books about this this post-war 1759 01:18:18,050 --> 01:18:15,840 Nazi international you'll discover that 1760 01:18:20,959 --> 01:18:18,060 all along I've been arguing that this 1761 01:18:24,470 --> 01:18:20,969 group when it fled Europe at the end of 1762 01:18:27,530 --> 01:18:24,480 World War two deliberately made an 1763 01:18:31,070 --> 01:18:27,540 effort to retain control of its most 1764 01:18:34,640 --> 01:18:31,080 exotic and advanced hidden research 1765 01:18:37,360 --> 01:18:34,650 black projects and simply relocated all 1766 01:18:40,070 --> 01:18:37,370 of these initially to South America so 1767 01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:40,080 over time with enough money and so on 1768 01:18:45,770 --> 01:18:42,690 could such a group have access to 1769 01:18:47,450 --> 01:18:45,780 technologies like that well we have to 1770 01:18:49,910 --> 01:18:47,460 look at none other than than the 1771 01:18:52,669 --> 01:18:49,920 Secretary of Defense William Cohen under 1772 01:18:55,970 --> 01:18:52,679 Bill Clinton who had a conference said 1773 01:18:57,649 --> 01:18:55,980 yes we we are very worried that 1774 01:18:59,720 --> 01:18:57,659 terrorist groups are going to get their 1775 01:19:02,180 --> 01:18:59,730 hands on some of these exotic weapons 1776 01:19:03,919 --> 01:19:02,190 and be able to manipulate weather or 1777 01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:03,929 create earthquakes and so on and so 1778 01:19:07,020 --> 01:19:05,410 forth so he's in 1779 01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:07,030 lying by the nature of the case right 1780 01:19:12,150 --> 01:19:08,890 there that there's an exotic energy 1781 01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:12,160 technology that is not in the hands of 1782 01:19:17,070 --> 01:19:14,650 any one sovereign nation that's in the 1783 01:19:19,170 --> 01:19:17,080 hands of somebody else so you know 1784 01:19:21,180 --> 01:19:19,180 connect the dots at one end and and the 1785 01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:21,190 other and I think you see what the 1786 01:19:26,940 --> 01:19:24,010 picture is right great summary and it is 1787 01:19:29,820 --> 01:19:26,950 a tangled web for sure oh absolutely I 1788 01:19:31,860 --> 01:19:29,830 mean I was when I found out this stuff 1789 01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:31,870 about Mohammed Atta Greg I was just 1790 01:19:37,020 --> 01:19:34,210 dumbfounded yeah you know it was 1791 01:19:39,090 --> 01:19:37,030 confirmation of an intuition that I had 1792 01:19:41,850 --> 01:19:39,100 when 9/11 happened you know we were all 1793 01:19:44,820 --> 01:19:41,860 glued to the television set and to me it 1794 01:19:46,830 --> 01:19:44,830 was like you know III was a boy during 1795 01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:46,840 the JFK assassination and it was like 1796 01:19:52,470 --> 01:19:50,170 deja vu because you know that already 1797 01:19:55,050 --> 01:19:52,480 they were putting out a certain spin a 1798 01:19:56,430 --> 01:19:55,060 certain storyline but I was as I was 1799 01:19:57,900 --> 01:19:56,440 watching all this I was thinking no 1800 01:20:00,080 --> 01:19:57,910 doesn't make sense there's something 1801 01:20:03,300 --> 01:20:00,090 much much deeper going on here and right 1802 01:20:06,690 --> 01:20:03,310 you know the other aspects of 9/11 only 1803 01:20:07,830 --> 01:20:06,700 seem to confirm this webster tarpley for 1804 01:20:10,620 --> 01:20:07,840 a number of years and i think quite 1805 01:20:12,660 --> 01:20:10,630 rightly has been arguing that 9/11 has 1806 01:20:15,990 --> 01:20:12,670 aspects of a coup d'etat if you look 1807 01:20:21,090 --> 01:20:16,000 closely yes and the you know I narrowly 1808 01:20:23,310 --> 01:20:21,100 avoided coup d'etat and you know coupled 1809 01:20:26,060 --> 01:20:23,320 with this Mohammed Atta connection to 1810 01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:26,070 you know IG Farben societies and 1811 01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:28,210 international bankers with ties to the 1812 01:20:35,670 --> 01:20:31,930 Saudis and the bin Laden's everything 1813 01:20:39,180 --> 01:20:35,680 else it's a very very murky picture so 1814 01:20:41,310 --> 01:20:39,190 yeah 9/11 you know I was kind of like 1815 01:20:44,130 --> 01:20:41,320 you dragged when I decided to write the 1816 01:20:46,800 --> 01:20:44,140 book it was well do I do I write this 1817 01:20:49,890 --> 01:20:46,810 and put it out there or do I fall victim 1818 01:20:52,470 --> 01:20:49,900 to my own sense of 9/11 exhaustion and I 1819 01:20:54,840 --> 01:20:52,480 just decided well no it's it's time to 1820 01:20:56,370 --> 01:20:54,850 put this out there because there may be 1821 01:20:57,960 --> 01:20:56,380 another way of looking at this whole 1822 01:21:00,510 --> 01:20:57,970 thing that even the 9/11 truth movement 1823 01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:00,520 hasn't really considered right and I'm 1824 01:21:05,160 --> 01:21:02,770 so glad you did put it out there but as 1825 01:21:06,750 --> 01:21:05,170 we start to wrap this up by the time 1826 01:21:07,980 --> 01:21:06,760 this show airs because I don't think 1827 01:21:09,840 --> 01:21:07,990 we're going to get it out in time it's 1828 01:21:12,330 --> 01:21:09,850 going to be close but will most likely 1829 01:21:14,010 --> 01:21:12,340 know who the next president is and on 1830 01:21:16,710 --> 01:21:14,020 the plus side we can actually get 1831 01:21:18,900 --> 01:21:16,720 through all this drama but as I've been 1832 01:21:20,820 --> 01:21:18,910 reading your 9/11 breakdown and hearing 1833 01:21:22,770 --> 01:21:20,830 about these multiple levels in the 1834 01:21:24,450 --> 01:21:22,780 notion that it seems like the fascist 1835 01:21:26,430 --> 01:21:24,460 international network has somewhat 1836 01:21:28,500 --> 01:21:26,440 broken off from the American machine as 1837 01:21:30,750 --> 01:21:28,510 it seems to be declining and its 1838 01:21:32,910 --> 01:21:30,760 usefulness I'm curious how you see this 1839 01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:32,920 relating to the supporters of the two 1840 01:21:37,140 --> 01:21:34,930 horses in the presidential race or the 1841 01:21:39,480 --> 01:21:37,150 back-and-forth FBI investigation of 1842 01:21:41,070 --> 01:21:39,490 Clinton or really anything between the 1843 01:21:44,370 --> 01:21:41,080 lines of what we're seeing in the 1844 01:21:47,220 --> 01:21:44,380 mainstream news well I've said all along 1845 01:21:50,850 --> 01:21:47,230 that my approach to this election and 1846 01:21:52,620 --> 01:21:50,860 the two candidates first of all I view 1847 01:21:57,210 --> 01:21:52,630 this election not simply as an election 1848 01:22:00,470 --> 01:21:57,220 I view it as a referendum on two very 1849 01:22:04,400 --> 01:22:00,480 very different ideologies of the future 1850 01:22:08,490 --> 01:22:04,410 one is one ideology is the standard 1851 01:22:11,340 --> 01:22:08,500 globalist mantra of the obsolescence of 1852 01:22:14,250 --> 01:22:11,350 the nation-state you know the 1853 01:22:18,060 --> 01:22:14,260 multicultural agenda the the centrality 1854 01:22:20,670 --> 01:22:18,070 model and everything being run by big 1855 01:22:24,260 --> 01:22:20,680 corporations for the glorious benefit of 1856 01:22:27,630 --> 01:22:24,270 the big corporations and the other 1857 01:22:31,290 --> 01:22:27,640 candidate represents an ideology opposed 1858 01:22:33,330 --> 01:22:31,300 to this centralizing model that is 1859 01:22:34,080 --> 01:22:33,340 reasserting the sovereignty of the 1860 01:22:36,930 --> 01:22:34,090 nation-state 1861 01:22:40,620 --> 01:22:36,940 the centrality of having a culture and 1862 01:22:44,100 --> 01:22:40,630 protecting and defending it and when you 1863 01:22:45,900 --> 01:22:44,110 look at it in that fashion and I've been 1864 01:22:47,910 --> 01:22:45,910 saying this you know for a number of 1865 01:22:52,950 --> 01:22:47,920 months now since since Donald Trump 1866 01:22:57,960 --> 01:22:52,960 emerged as the Republican nominee what I 1867 01:23:02,760 --> 01:22:57,970 think you see is these two candidates 1868 01:23:06,660 --> 01:23:02,770 really represent two factions of the 1869 01:23:10,710 --> 01:23:06,670 American deep state that are battling it 1870 01:23:12,750 --> 01:23:10,720 out right behind the scenes you know 1871 01:23:16,380 --> 01:23:12,760 I've made no bones I call Trump the 1872 01:23:18,330 --> 01:23:16,390 Mafia candidate because you cannot be in 1873 01:23:21,060 --> 01:23:18,340 the business he's in particularly where 1874 01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:21,070 he's you know done most of his business 1875 01:23:28,320 --> 01:23:25,330 without having to have had at some point 1876 01:23:31,470 --> 01:23:28,330 in your business dealings dealings with 1877 01:23:33,060 --> 01:23:31,480 what we now call the mob or the Mafia 1878 01:23:35,100 --> 01:23:33,070 now there's one thing about the American 1879 01:23:38,400 --> 01:23:35,110 Mafia that people forget and that is it 1880 01:23:42,780 --> 01:23:38,410 is intensely patriotic has been 1881 01:23:44,460 --> 01:23:42,790 traditionally so and he therefore to me 1882 01:23:46,050 --> 01:23:44,470 represents that segment of the American 1883 01:23:49,260 --> 01:23:46,060 deep State that's looked at these 1884 01:23:51,180 --> 01:23:49,270 globalists and neo-cons and seen nothing 1885 01:23:54,660 --> 01:23:51,190 but a track record of disaster and 1886 01:23:57,870 --> 01:23:54,670 particularly in in the mafia's case with 1887 01:24:00,180 --> 01:23:57,880 Obamacare and everything else so gutting 1888 01:24:03,060 --> 01:24:00,190 the leisure capital of the middle class 1889 01:24:05,280 --> 01:24:03,070 this is cut very very heavily into the 1890 01:24:07,080 --> 01:24:05,290 casino business if you go out to Vegas 1891 01:24:08,940 --> 01:24:07,090 and places like that business is 1892 01:24:11,610 --> 01:24:08,950 dramatically down from where it used to 1893 01:24:14,700 --> 01:24:11,620 be so he represents you know a segment 1894 01:24:17,010 --> 01:24:14,710 of that economic interest that is 1895 01:24:19,500 --> 01:24:17,020 looking at this track record and seeing 1896 01:24:22,650 --> 01:24:19,510 things are not going the way that they 1897 01:24:24,660 --> 01:24:22,660 should so I view this as a contest 1898 01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:24,670 really between not only different 1899 01:24:28,290 --> 01:24:26,410 opposing ideologies but different 1900 01:24:30,810 --> 01:24:28,300 factions within the American deep State 1901 01:24:34,020 --> 01:24:30,820 now it's interesting that just I think 1902 01:24:37,620 --> 01:24:34,030 yesterday Gregg was that dr. Steven - 1903 01:24:39,930 --> 01:24:37,630 chanak a psychiatrist that has had 1904 01:24:40,440 --> 01:24:39,940 dealings with and had been part of the 1905 01:24:43,110 --> 01:24:40,450 CIA 1906 01:24:46,110 --> 01:24:43,120 just came out with a YouTube video where 1907 01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:46,120 he said that in effect what you're 1908 01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:48,690 seeing now is a soft counter coup 1909 01:24:53,460 --> 01:24:50,890 against Hillary Clinton and the 1910 01:24:55,110 --> 01:24:53,470 globalists by a group of people within 1911 01:24:57,410 --> 01:24:55,120 the American military intelligence 1912 01:24:59,760 --> 01:24:57,420 community that are deeply dissatisfied 1913 01:25:02,490 --> 01:24:59,770 with the direction that things have been 1914 01:25:04,890 --> 01:25:02,500 going for the last thirty years 1915 01:25:07,050 --> 01:25:04,900 under under the Bush Clinton Nexus and 1916 01:25:08,729 --> 01:25:07,060 again that plays very well to what I 1917 01:25:11,340 --> 01:25:08,739 said earlier about the Economist 1918 01:25:13,080 --> 01:25:11,350 magazine op-ed piece about the British 1919 01:25:15,810 --> 01:25:13,090 you know looking at this election back 1920 01:25:17,310 --> 01:25:15,820 in 2015 and seeing nothing but the 1921 01:25:20,130 --> 01:25:17,320 calcification of the American political 1922 01:25:21,330 --> 01:25:20,140 class and and no new solutions just the 1923 01:25:23,700 --> 01:25:21,340 same old same old 1924 01:25:26,550 --> 01:25:23,710 and more of it and you know I think the 1925 01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:26,560 brexit vote in a certain sense was the 1926 01:25:31,050 --> 01:25:29,170 British deep state taking stock of where 1927 01:25:32,760 --> 01:25:31,060 this is all going and deciding you know 1928 01:25:35,010 --> 01:25:32,770 we want out of it and we're going to go 1929 01:25:37,500 --> 01:25:35,020 a different direction so there's a lot 1930 01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:37,510 riding on this election there's much 1931 01:25:43,440 --> 01:25:40,330 more going on here I think then meets 1932 01:25:44,709 --> 01:25:43,450 the eye behind the scenes and to put the 1933 01:25:49,989 --> 01:25:44,719 icing on the cake for that 1934 01:25:52,089 --> 01:25:49,999 analysis I began to get very very I 1935 01:25:54,790 --> 01:25:52,099 would I won't say suspicious but in a 1936 01:25:57,459 --> 01:25:54,800 certain sense to have this kind of 1937 01:26:01,140 --> 01:25:57,469 analysis confirmed by the way Donald 1938 01:26:04,839 --> 01:26:01,150 Trump dealt with Jeb Bush and dealt with 1939 01:26:07,719 --> 01:26:04,849 senator Cruz because you'll recall 1940 01:26:10,839 --> 01:26:07,729 during the the Republican primary season 1941 01:26:15,100 --> 01:26:10,849 he came out as they were debating with 1942 01:26:18,609 --> 01:26:15,110 that statement against Jeb Bush where he 1943 01:26:21,759 --> 01:26:18,619 actually succeeded in injecting part of 1944 01:26:24,430 --> 01:26:21,769 the 9/11 truth narrative into the 1945 01:26:26,589 --> 01:26:24,440 political debate mmm-hmm you know by 1946 01:26:27,910 --> 01:26:26,599 questioning the Bush families potential 1947 01:26:32,830 --> 01:26:27,920 role in it yeah 1948 01:26:34,689 --> 01:26:32,840 now that was huge because what and he 1949 01:26:36,430 --> 01:26:34,699 did it with a sense of finesse and 1950 01:26:39,129 --> 01:26:36,440 timing but I don't think many people 1951 01:26:42,729 --> 01:26:39,139 appreciate because Bush's candidacy was 1952 01:26:44,709 --> 01:26:42,739 already failing and that just injected 1953 01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:44,719 the final coup de Gras and Bush dropped 1954 01:26:51,009 --> 01:26:48,170 out within days of that remark huh and I 1955 01:26:53,729 --> 01:26:51,019 think it was because you know by someone 1956 01:26:58,270 --> 01:26:53,739 of Trump's stature injecting that into 1957 01:27:03,040 --> 01:26:58,280 the mainstream meant that they could no 1958 01:27:05,319 --> 01:27:03,050 longer take refuge behind the official 1959 01:27:08,020 --> 01:27:05,329 narrative and then what happened to 1960 01:27:10,509 --> 01:27:08,030 senator Cruz well he dropped that little 1961 01:27:15,009 --> 01:27:10,519 bombshell about senator Cruz's father 1962 01:27:19,299 --> 01:27:15,019 having been in New Orleans and in the 1963 01:27:21,399 --> 01:27:19,309 circle of people that surrounded Lee 1964 01:27:22,839 --> 01:27:21,409 Harvey Oswald and therefore you know he 1965 01:27:25,779 --> 01:27:22,849 was he was making the implicit 1966 01:27:28,899 --> 01:27:25,789 connection of senator Cruz to the JFK 1967 01:27:31,149 --> 01:27:28,909 assassination well as a response to this 1968 01:27:32,950 --> 01:27:31,159 of course senator Cruz began by denying 1969 01:27:36,040 --> 01:27:32,960 and and so on and so forth but 1970 01:27:38,770 --> 01:27:36,050 eventually the researchers were able to 1971 01:27:40,899 --> 01:27:38,780 show that senator senator Cruz's father 1972 01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:40,909 really was in New Orleans and apparently 1973 01:27:45,250 --> 01:27:43,210 did have some sort of loose network 1974 01:27:47,200 --> 01:27:45,260 connection to that whole circle of 1975 01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:47,210 goings on down there so what happened to 1976 01:27:52,010 --> 01:27:49,050 senator Cruz well 1977 01:27:55,399 --> 01:27:52,020 his donations began to fail dramatically 1978 01:27:59,390 --> 01:27:55,409 after that statement and sooner rather 1979 01:28:02,120 --> 01:27:59,400 than later he drops out of the race now 1980 01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:02,130 what that signals to me is that somebody 1981 01:28:11,709 --> 01:28:06,570 is feeding Donald Trump with a lot of 1982 01:28:18,020 --> 01:28:15,169 studied practice on when and how to drop 1983 01:28:21,799 --> 01:28:18,030 those little zingers yeah into the 1984 01:28:24,109 --> 01:28:21,809 conversation besides the fact that I 1985 01:28:28,250 --> 01:28:24,119 strongly suspect that Trump himself is 1986 01:28:31,700 --> 01:28:28,260 an individual that would be inclined to 1987 01:28:33,890 --> 01:28:31,710 to question official narratives and read 1988 01:28:36,140 --> 01:28:33,900 things on his own so I think this is 1989 01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:36,150 coming from a two-fold source within the 1990 01:28:39,830 --> 01:28:38,010 Trump campaign I think he's being fed 1991 01:28:42,439 --> 01:28:39,840 intelligence and he's being carefully 1992 01:28:43,879 --> 01:28:42,449 steered as to how and when he drops 1993 01:28:46,280 --> 01:28:43,889 these little zingers into the 1994 01:28:49,040 --> 01:28:46,290 conversation mm-hmm and he's not afraid 1995 01:28:50,870 --> 01:28:49,050 of doing so you know he's dropped a 1996 01:28:52,490 --> 01:28:50,880 number of zingers into the presidential 1997 01:28:56,680 --> 01:28:52,500 debates he dropped at quite a few 1998 01:28:59,450 --> 01:28:56,690 zingers in in that joint dinner with 1999 01:29:02,870 --> 01:28:59,460 Cardinal what's-his-name everybody that 2000 01:29:05,510 --> 01:29:02,880 he and Hillary appeared at he's done 2001 01:29:07,339 --> 01:29:05,520 this repeatedly and this this plus the 2002 01:29:10,069 --> 01:29:07,349 fact that Stephen Botanic has come out 2003 01:29:14,450 --> 01:29:10,079 with the soft coupe the soft two video 2004 01:29:16,160 --> 01:29:14,460 has suggests to me by way of a kind of 2005 01:29:20,899 --> 01:29:16,170 confirmation that yes there's some sort 2006 01:29:24,770 --> 01:29:20,909 of an ad-hoc intelligence presence in 2007 01:29:27,859 --> 01:29:24,780 the Trump campaign that is very very 2008 01:29:29,899 --> 01:29:27,869 dissatisfied with with what Clinton 2009 01:29:31,850 --> 01:29:29,909 represents which is basically more of 2010 01:29:34,459 --> 01:29:31,860 the same Bush Clinton stuff that we've 2011 01:29:36,140 --> 01:29:34,469 had for the last thirty years so there's 2012 01:29:38,990 --> 01:29:36,150 a lot going on in this election 2013 01:29:41,510 --> 01:29:39,000 Greg behind the scenes you know your 2014 01:29:43,459 --> 01:29:41,520 guess is as good as mine or people's 2015 01:29:46,060 --> 01:29:43,469 guesses out there as good as mine but 2016 01:29:48,470 --> 01:29:46,070 that's kind of that's kind of my take on 2017 01:29:50,720 --> 01:29:48,480 what's happening yeah 2018 01:29:52,640 --> 01:29:50,730 man I love the way you read between the 2019 01:29:55,280 --> 01:29:52,650 lines but Wow 2020 01:29:56,930 --> 01:29:55,290 Joseph always

01:30:01,199 clarity I think you set a serious gold 2024 01:30:04,070 --> 01:30:02,040 standard for 2025 01:30:05,360 --> 01:30:04,080 the conspiratorial research community 2026 01:30:07,880 -->

P Ferrell always 2038 01:31:11,060 --> 01:31:09,060 always one of my favorites he spent an 2039 01:31:13,600 --> 01:31:11,070 extra half hour with me so big thanks to 2040 01:31:17,630 --> 01:31:13,610 him too extended episodes back-to-back 2041 01:31:19,700 --> 01:31:17,640 how about that guys some people have 2042 01:31:21,920 --> 01:31:19,710 asked where the newsletter is and it is 2043 01:31:24,620 --> 01:31:21,930 behind because I'm trying to launch 2044 01:31:26,270 --> 01:31:24,630 t-shirt brand 2.0 and I want to include 2045 01:31:28,220 --> 01:31:26,280 that in the newsletter instead of having 2046 01:31:30,590 --> 01:31:28,230 to wait another month or send out two 2047 01:31:33,020 --> 01:31:30,600 stupid emails and we're closed for real 2048 01:31:35,810 --> 01:31:33,030 close so I'm trying to roll it all up 2049 01:31:38,120 --> 01:31:35,820 into one thing but as for this show I 2050 01:31:41,180 --> 01:31:38,130 definitely find the common core stuff 2051 01:31:43,790 --> 01:31:41,190 really creepy and I'm glad so glad that 2052 01:31:46,340 --> 01:31:43,800 I don't have kids right now I'm also 2053 01:31:48,050 --> 01:31:46,350 very lucky that the person I'm marrying 2054 01:31:50,390 --> 01:31:48,060 is on board with some type of 2055 01:31:52,790 --> 01:31:50,400 alternative schooling but we still don't 2056 01:31:55,130 --> 01:31:52,800 want to raise no weirdos so you got to 2057 01:31:58,030 --> 01:31:55,140 be careful it can be a slippery slope 2058 01:32:00,800 --> 01:31:58,040 but the aspect of these computerized 2059 01:32:03,320 --> 01:32:00,810 personally adaptable tests in this data 2060 01:32:04,820 --> 01:32:03,330 collection tie-in where the data can be 2061 01:32:06,710 --> 01:32:04,830 sold to corporations and they can 2062 01:32:09,170 --> 01:32:06,720 analyze it a thousand different ways and 2063 01:32:11,510 --> 01:32:09,180 cater marketing specifically to you for 2064 01:32:13,220 --> 01:32:11,520 the rest of your life no good 2065 01:32:15,850 --> 01:32:13,230 when these nefarious companies have 2066 01:32:17,500 --> 01:32:15,860 basically all these little sub company 2067 01:32:20,620 --> 01:32:17,510 their umbrella they're going to use it 2068 01:32:23,140 --> 01:32:20,630 any way they can this data teachers have 2069 01:32:25,840 --> 01:32:23,150 no power parents have no power the 2070 01:32:28,510 --> 01:32:25,850 material is proprietary it's a creepy 2071 01:32:30,670 --> 01:32:28,520 direction for education to be going in 2072 01:32:34,060 --> 01:32:30,680 and I'm glad Joseph decided to tackle it 2073 01:32:36,190 --> 01:32:34,070 same with 911 so many people say it's 2074 01:32:38,710 --> 01:32:36,200 the Jews that use the Jews Israel and 2075 01:32:41,770 --> 01:32:38,720 there is a Jewish sector but I just 2076 01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:41,780 don't know if it holds as much power as 2077 01:32:45,790 --> 01:32:44,330 it did in the rothschild days I think 2078 01:32:49,450 --> 01:32:45,800 there's really something to this 2079 01:32:51,700 --> 01:32:49,460 powerful post-war Nazi cabal and where 2080 01:32:53,380 --> 01:32:51,710 we've seen their influence but it's not 2081 01:32:55,420 --> 01:32:53,390 an either/or I've been listening to a 2082 01:32:56,770 --> 01:32:55,430 lot of Robert Anton Wilson lately I 2083 01:32:59,590 --> 01:32:56,780 think he's just a really compelling 2084 01:33:03,220 --> 01:32:59,600 speaker I like manly P Hall too but he 2085 01:33:05,920 --> 01:33:03,230 was just a few decades too soon for 2086 01:33:07,720 --> 01:33:05,930 quality audio recordings the ones I get 2087 01:33:10,000 --> 01:33:07,730 are usually pretty poor but anyway 2088 01:33:12,520 --> 01:33:10,010 Robert Anton Wilson he reiterates 2089 01:33:15,460 --> 01:33:12,530 several times in this lecture that I was 2090 01:33:17,830 --> 01:33:15,470 listening to that no model can encompass 2091 01:33:19,720 --> 01:33:17,840 everything which is also kind of his 2092 01:33:22,510 --> 01:33:19,730 beef with conspiracy folks is their 2093 01:33:24,580 --> 01:33:22,520 narrow models but it is true there's 2094 01:33:27,070 --> 01:33:24,590 always going to be something left out I 2095 01:33:29,020 --> 01:33:27,080 try to stay away from those types of 2096 01:33:31,420 --> 01:33:29,030 absolute statements for just that reason 2097 01:33:33,100 --> 01:33:31,430 but in this context I mention it only 2098 01:33:35,770 --> 01:33:33,110 because if you think a lot of control 2099 01:33:37,210 --> 01:33:35,780 comes from one area don't have blinders 2100 01:33:39,640 --> 01:33:37,220 on to other areas 2101 01:33:41,710 --> 01:33:39,650 I fully think we have a Jew thing going 2102 01:33:43,750 --> 01:33:41,720 on a Jesuit thing that's pretty serious 2103 01:33:46,450 --> 01:33:43,760 a triple-crown control problem 2104 01:33:48,130 --> 01:33:46,460 overarching iconic influence and a Nazi 2105 01:33:49,750 --> 01:33:48,140 fascist international network and even 2106 01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:49,760 that model wouldn't include everything 2107 01:33:54,610 --> 01:33:52,370 you got your think tanks you got your 2108 01:33:56,680 --> 01:33:54,620 secret societies you got your 2109 01:33:59,230 --> 01:33:56,690 multinationals it's a tangled web for 2110 01:34:01,900 --> 01:33:59,240 sure but that's ok I like to think that 2111 01:34:04,780 --> 01:34:01,910 at least as the show progresses we 2112 01:34:06,280 --> 01:34:04,790 examine all threads pretty equally but 2113 01:34:08,800 --> 01:34:06,290 I'm wrapping this thing up soon it's 2114 01:34:11,880 --> 01:34:08,810 actually 6 p.m. my time on election 2115 01:34:15,580 --> 01:34:11,890 night the electoral votes right now our 2116 01:34:19,780 --> 01:34:15,590 trump 60 Clinton 44 I'm looking at a 2117 01:34:22,690 --> 01:34:19,790 popular vote of Trump 51% Clinton 46% I 2118 01:34:25,270 --> 01:34:22,700 would be really really shocked if 2119 01:34:28,510 --> 01:34:25,280 Hillary didn't win because I'm just so 2120 01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:28,520 used to the boring thing happening Trump 2121 01:34:31,540 --> 01:34:29,810 would definitely be the chaos 2122 01:34:33,640 --> 01:34:31,550 candidate I don't think he's pure by any 2123 01:34:36,550 --> 01:34:33,650 means but he definitely would be the 2124 01:34:38,590 --> 01:34:36,560 more exciting chaos candidate if that's 2125 01:34:39,970 --> 01:34:38,600 what you're looking for and I don't even 2126 01:34:42,400 --> 01:34:39,980 know that that's what I'm looking for 2127 01:34:44,200 --> 01:34:42,410 I'm just saying when you look at the way 2128 01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:44,210 the media has basically completely 2129 01:34:48,100 --> 01:34:46,010 ignored the Podesta emails and the 2130 01:34:51,130 --> 01:34:48,110 Clinton Foundation stuff and instead 2131 01:34:54,610 --> 01:34:51,140 said that Trump is so scary I mean every 2132 01:34:58,030 --> 01:34:54,620 celebrity every media host it's all just 2133 01:34:59,620 --> 01:34:58,040 about how scary Trump is and how we have 2134 01:35:02,140 --> 01:34:59,630 to hold our nose and vote for Clinton I 2135 01:35:05,620 --> 01:35:02,150 mean everybody I can't remember a time 2136 01:35:08,200 --> 01:35:05,630 when people have been so aggressive 2137 01:35:12,160 --> 01:35:08,210 about telling audiences who to vote for 2138 01:35:13,750 --> 01:35:12,170 and how disastrous how apocalyptic the 2139 01:35:16,360 --> 01:35:13,760 other candidate would be I mean I know 2140 01:35:18,070 --> 01:35:16,370 this happens to a degree but I think we 2141 01:35:19,360 --> 01:35:18,080 can all acknowledge that there's 2142 01:35:21,700 --> 01:35:19,370 something different going on this time 2143 01:35:25,810 --> 01:35:21,710 so there is an argument to be made that 2144 01:35:28,390 --> 01:35:25,820 why would they set that trap not to use 2145 01:35:30,910 --> 01:35:28,400 it you drill into everyone's head how 2146 01:35:34,120 --> 01:35:30,920 dangerous it will be if X happens and 2147 01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:34,130 then you don't make X happen I don't 2148 01:35:38,110 --> 01:35:36,410 know there's the argument that the elite 2149 01:35:40,960 --> 01:35:38,120 are changing the game up and this might 2150 01:35:42,490 --> 01:35:40,970 parallel the brexit vote where everybody 2151 01:35:44,710 --> 01:35:42,500 goes to bed positive it's going to go 2152 01:35:46,900 --> 01:35:44,720 one way they wake up and it goes the 2153 01:35:50,290 --> 01:35:46,910 other way with the nationalistic choice 2154 01:35:53,020 --> 01:35:50,300 yeah that's possible but those options 2155 01:35:54,970 --> 01:35:53,030 are too chaotic for boring old America 2156 01:35:57,910 --> 01:35:54,980 we're getting Clinton I'm saying it 2157 01:35:59,710 --> 01:35:57,920 right now by morning I might completely 2158 01:36:02,170 --> 01:35:59,720 regret even talking about it but that's 2159 01:36:03,940 --> 01:36:02,180 what I see happening but as for those 2160 01:36:05,560 --> 01:36:03,950 Podesta emails yeah they're creepy and 2161 01:36:07,570 --> 01:36:05,570 I'm sure we'll be getting into that in a 2162 01:36:09,700 --> 01:36:07,580 full show once I feel confident that 2163 01:36:12,310 --> 01:36:09,710 it's all out there and we can talk about 2164 01:36:15,190 --> 01:36:12,320 it in full but if you do want to hear 2165 01:36:17,470 --> 01:36:15,200 more THC right now the Plus show today 2166 01:36:18,670 --> 01:36:17,480 is excellent all the 9/11 stuff was 2167 01:36:21,370 --> 01:36:18,680 going to be the plus show but since 2168 01:36:23,650 --> 01:36:21,380 Joseph gave me an extra half hour we got 2169 01:36:26,200 --> 01:36:23,660 to at least introduce everybody to his 2170 01:36:27,910 --> 01:36:26,210 9/11 analysis we did go deeper in the 2171 01:36:30,100 --> 01:36:27,920 plus show and then we talked about CERN 2172 01:36:32,050 --> 01:36:30,110 and the secret agenda behind the Large 2173 01:36:33,880 --> 01:36:32,060 Hadron Collider and how it relates to 2174 01:36:35,740 --> 01:36:33,890 this fascist international network the 2175 01:36:37,990 --> 01:36:35,750 Nazi bell and the off-the-books physics 2176 01:36:39,580 --> 01:36:38,000 we've talked about before we also talked 2177 01:36:42,490 --> 01:36:39,590 about other areas where we've seen some 2178 01:36:43,570 --> 01:36:42,500 of these exotic technologies tested the 2179 01:36:45,070 --> 01:36:43,580 Malaysian Airlines 2180 01:36:47,830 --> 01:36:45,080 disappearance the Bermuda Triangle 2181 01:36:51,850 --> 01:36:47,840 Norway spiral all might be examples of 2182 01:36:53,740 --> 01:36:51,860 it I also love love love the talk about 2183 01:36:56,110 --> 01:36:53,750 fighting in the Middle East might be 2184 01:36:58,840 --> 01:36:56,120 over cuneiform tablets and ancient 2185 01:37:00,550 --> 01:36:58,850 technologies buried in Babylon and that 2186 01:37:02,500 --> 01:37:00,560 might have been the coded language of 2187 01:37:05,680 --> 01:37:02,510 weapons of mass destruction and that 2188 01:37:08,310 --> 01:37:05,690 whole meme provocative stuff indeed we 2189

--> 01:42:37,640 don't know there is a second hour to all 2232 01:42:41,710 --> 01:42:40,010 the episodes we do around here generally 2233 01:42:43,450 --> 01:42:41,720 we're able to get a lot deeper into the 2234 01:42:45,460 --> 01:42:43,460 topics and ideas that a guest is about 2235 01:42:48,580 --> 01:42:45,470 so if you enjoyed what you've heard from 2236 01:42:50,770 --> 01:42:48,590 THC for free consider signing up at the 2237 01:42:52,750 --> 01:42:50,780 higher side chats plus com to get the 2238 01:42:55,060 --> 01:42:52,760 second hour of the 5 shows I put 2239 01:42:56,980 --> 01:42:55,070 together each month I never really 2240 01:42:58,690 --> 01:42:56,990 wanted to be a paid subscriber podcast 2241 01:43:00,670 --> 01:42:58,700 but I really hate the idea of spending 2242 01:43:02,770 --> 01:43:00,680 airtime promoting some product that's 2243 01:43:04,450 --> 01:43:02,780 completely unrelated and telling you the 2244 01:43:07,210 --> 01:43:04,460 best way to support the show is to buy 2245 01:43:08,890 --> 01:43:07,220 an audio book or new underwear by mail 2246 01:43:11,440 --> 01:43:08,900 or something crazy like that so instead 2247 01:43:13,060 --> 01:43:11,450 if you like the show double your time 2248 01:43:15,160 --> 01:43:13,070 with it for five bucks a month and let's 2249 01:43:16,780 --> 01:43:15,170 cut out all the other it's half the 2250 01:43:18,550 --> 01:43:16,790 price of a movie ticket and you get at 2251 01:43:21,160 --> 01:43:18,560 least an extra five hours of show a 2252 01:43:22,960 --> 01:43:21,170 month collectively it keeps us stable 2253 01:43:24,580 --> 01:43:22,970 and it frees me from wasting your time 2254 01:43:27,130 --> 01:43:24,590 with anything but the show you came to 2255 01:43:29,110 --> 01:43:27,140 listen to it's really the only way for 2256 01:43:30,910 --> 01:43:29,120 an independent one-man show to make it 2257 01:43:33,130 --> 01:43:30,920 and I do what I can so that it's worth 2258 01:43:35,110 --> 01:43:33,140 your while since we started this I've 2259 01:43:37,150 --> 01:43:35,120 always tried to use the subscriptions to 2260 01:43:39,700 --> 01:43:37,160 improve the podcast and make signups 2261 01:43:41,620 --> 01:43:39,710 more advantageous it started with just a 2262 01:43:43,300 --> 01:43:41,630 second hour for the main show but now 2263 01:43:45,340 --> 01:43:43,310 we've got a nice forum going where 2264 01:43:47,050 --> 01:43:45,350 people can get deeper in conversation 2265 01:43:49,960 --> 01:43:47,060 about the episodes with other listeners 2266 01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:49,970 submit a candidate in the guest request 2267 01:43:53,680 --> 01:43:51,850 thread or share their own personal 2268 01:43:55,930 --> 01:43:53,690 projects to get out of the soul-crushing 2269 01:43:58,540 --> 01:43:55,940 nine-to-five cog in the wheel life on 2270 01:44:00,220 --> 01:43:58,550 the entrepreneurs thread the forum in 2271 01:44:01,930 --> 01:44:00,230 the Plus comments are always the first 2272 01:44:04,180 --> 01:44:01,940 places I try to go for listener 2273 01:44:06,550 --> 01:44:04,190 engagement but it does get harder as the 2274 01:44:08,380 --> 01:44:06,560 show gets more popular because of that 2275 01:44:09,850 --> 01:44:08,390 there's also a direct messaging feature 2276 01:44:12,700 --> 01:44:09,860 that you can use to reach me through the 2277 01:44:14,200 --> 01:44:12,710 plus site also but beyond the forum if 2278 01:44:16,480 --> 01:44:14,210 you like any of the music I've used for 2279 01:44:18,280 --> 01:44:16,490 THC most of it I've hired artists to 2280 01:44:20,530 --> 01:44:18,290 make and I provided all its free 2281 01:44:21,970 --> 01:44:20,540 downloads to plus members too so if you 2282 01:44:24,190 --> 01:44:21,980 like a particular song you've heard 2283 01:44:26,560 --> 01:44:24,200 close the show out recently come get the 2284 01:44:28,540 --> 01:44:26,570 mp3 I should also mention that if you 2285 01:44:30,880 --> 01:44:28,550 don't like the idea of paying $5 2286 01:44:33,070 --> 01:44:30,890 recurring every month I get that you can 2287 01:44:35,410 --> 01:44:33,080 buy three months six months or a year 2288 01:44:37,150 --> 01:44:35,420 upfront and just be done with it I have 2289 01:44:39,730 --> 01:44:37,160 plenty of listeners who send checks and 2290 01:44:41,050 --> 01:44:39,740 money orders to the PIO box too I try to 2291 01:44:42,760 --> 01:44:41,060 make it as easy for people 2292 01:44:44,830 --> 01:44:42,770 as I can and you can read more about it 2293

highlighted a lot of great 2299 01:44:58,360 --> 01:44:56,300 solutions and one of those would be the 2300 01:45:00,880 --> 01:44:58,370 iPhone app that just recently hit the 2301 01:45:03,010 -->

anyone who wants to 2323 01:45:48,100 --> 01:45:45,920 sign up at the main internet website for 2324 01:45:49,990 --> 01:45:48,110 the show the higher side chats com 2325 01:45:51,760 --> 01:45:50,000 you can also get on that email list 2326 01:45:53,500 --> 01:45:51,770 through the higher side chats Facebook 2327 01:45:55,180 --> 01:45:53,510 page there's a button there as well 2328 01:45:57,760 --> 01:45:55,190 but the reason I'm doing this is because 2329 01:45:59,860 --> 01:45:57,770 I get tons and tons of emails after a 2330 01:46:01,900 --> 01:45:59,870 show goes up asking me about how I feel 2331 01:46:03,580 --> 01:46:01,910 about a particular guest or topic and 2332 01:46:05,560 --> 01:46:03,590 the wrap-up isn't always the best place 2333 01:46:07,600 --> 01:46:05,570 to do that especially if I have anything 2334 01:46:09,460 --> 01:46:07,610 negative to say sometimes the dust needs 2335 01:46:11,950 --> 01:46:09,470 to settle sometimes I need to hear 2336 01:46:13,510 --> 01:46:11,960 feedback from you guys first there are a 2337 01:46:15,130 --> 01:46:13,520 lot of factors but I usually have 2338 01:46:17,560 --> 01:46:15,140 something to communicate to you and I 2339 01:46:19,180 --> 01:46:17,570 just don't get to do it so on the first 2340 01:46:20,770 --> 01:46:19,190 of the month I plan to send out a little 2341 01:46:23,140 --> 01:46:20,780 newsletter with my thoughts about the 2342 01:46:25,030 --> 01:46:23,150 five shows the previous month and talk 2343 01:46:27,190 --> 01:46:25,040 to you about anything else that's on my 2344 01:46:29,020 --> 01:46:27,200 mind or that's going on and what's 2345 01:46:30,550 --> 01:46:29,030 probably most enticing is that I'm going 2346 01:46:32,650 --> 01:46:30,560 to give you some insight into at least 2347 01:46:34,720 --> 01:46:32,660 one guest I have coming up in the month 2348 01:46:36,730 --> 01:46:34,730 which people have been begging for some 2349 01:46:38,740 --> 01:46:36,740 posted schedule for a long time I 2350 01:46:40,360 --> 01:46:38,750 personally think I'd like the surprise 2351 01:46:42,400 --> 01:46:40,370 but sign up for the higher side 2352 01:46:43,720 --> 01:46:42,410 newsletter it's free it comes out on the 2353 01:46:45,610 --> 01:46:43,730 first of the month and I won't waste 2354 01:46:48,190 --> 01:46:45,620 your time with any other emails and 2355 01:46:50,290 --> 01:46:48,200 that's it I appreciate you listening I 2356 01:46:52,480 --> 01:46:50,300 try to give alternative ideas and guests 2357 01:46:54,939 --> 01:46:52,490 a fair shake on a high-quality podcast 2358 01:46:56,919 --> 01:46:54,949 expose some deep level conspiracies 2359 01:46:58,629 --> 01:46:56,929 without the yelling and I hope to offer 2360 01:47:00,759 --> 01:46:58,639 some inspiration that even though the 2361 01:47:03,069 --> 01:47:00,769 system relentlessly suggests you should 2362 01:47:04,899 --> 01:47:03,079 follow their blueprint to mediocrity you 2363 01:47:07,209 --> 01:47:04,909 can do your own thing and live a much 2364 01:47:09,100 --> 01:47:07,219 happier life despite all the negativity
