plastic money and stuff 207 00:09:54,420 --> 00:09:52,120 so they're not actually sitting around 208 00:09:56,610 --> 00:09:54,430 doing nothing they lost nine hundred 209 00:09:58,140 --> 00:09:56,620 staff over the last 18 months because of 210 00:09:59,850 --> 00:09:58,150 funding cuts and what is this a 211 00:10:02,190 --> 00:09:59,860 percentage that sounds like it's not a 212 00:10:04,620 --> 00:10:02,200 small percentage no I don't know what 213 00:10:06,420 --> 00:10:04,630 percentage it was but it was it was a 214 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:06,430 massive amount of their research staff 215 00:10:11,940 --> 00:10:10,090 were gone including a guy who is is 216 00:10:14,550 --> 00:10:11,950 people think he's going to get nominated 217 00:10:16,890 --> 00:10:14,560 for a Nobel Prize fairly soon he got 218 00:10:19,830 --> 00:10:16,900 knocked off because um not knocked off 219 00:10:23,490 --> 00:10:19,840 as in like killed but it was it was made 220 00:10:25,530 --> 00:10:23,500 redundant but he still comes to work 221 00:10:27,300 --> 00:10:25,540 anyway he still comes to work even 222 00:10:28,740 --> 00:10:27,310 though he's not getting paid has he got 223 00:10:31,380 --> 00:10:28,750 stuff in the work fridge that he doesn't 224 00:10:34,950 --> 00:10:31,390 have to go off or something no I think 225 00:10:37,410 --> 00:10:34,960 he's just like this really generous guy 226 00:10:39,750 --> 00:10:37,420 and he's also he came to Australia on 227 00:10:42,300 --> 00:10:39,760 the 70s on a boat from Vietnam I think 228 00:10:44,340 --> 00:10:42,310 after the Vietnam War so he was I guess 229 00:10:46,170 --> 00:10:44,350 he was a boat person one of those 230 00:10:47,940 --> 00:10:46,180 terrorists that you know we hear about 231 00:10:49,950 --> 00:10:47,950 from the government I mean he has 232 00:10:51,330 --> 00:10:49,960 contributed a huge amount to research in 233 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:51,340 this country but now he doesn't have a 234 00:10:57,510 --> 00:10:53,610 job either so there's another guy who 235 00:10:59,720 --> 00:10:57,520 who has contributed the equivalent of 236 00:11:02,520 --> 00:10:59,730 six billion dollars to the economy 237 00:11:05,490 --> 00:11:02,530 because he worked on solar cells and 238 00:11:09,300 --> 00:11:05,500 solar power and he's lost his job as 239 00:11:10,590 --> 00:11:09,310 well so you know is there any section 240 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:10,600 that is going ahead at the moment is 241 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:12,250 there any area that actually has got the 242 00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:14,050 money that other people haven't got yes 243 00:11:22,110 --> 00:11:19,570 the mining industry yes so good time to 244 00:11:23,700 --> 00:11:22,120 be a geologist now now now who's the 245 00:11:25,260 --> 00:11:23,710 silly one wasn't you should have been 246 00:11:27,450 --> 00:11:25,270 spending a bit more time on your igneous 247 00:11:29,910 --> 00:11:27,460 rocks well I'm possibly a mining 248 00:11:30,750 --> 00:11:29,920 engineer maybe I mean but the money room 249 00:11:34,110 --> 00:11:30,760 it has 250 00:11:36,090 --> 00:11:34,120 and it was slowing down but this 251 00:11:39,030 --> 00:11:36,100 government seems to be intent on putting 252 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:39,040 money into fossil fuels and not really 253 00:11:47,550 --> 00:11:44,170 investing in renewables but also in the 254 00:11:49,110 --> 00:11:47,560 technology and the stem industries so 255 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:49,120 science technology engineering maths in 256 00:11:52,110 --> 00:11:50,410 Australia which we were good we're going 257 00:11:54,210 --> 00:11:52,120 to need soon because we're going to run 258 00:11:55,470 --> 00:11:54,220 out of stuff in the ground you know you 259 00:11:57,570 --> 00:11:55,480 could just keep digging stuff out of the 260 00:11:59,850 --> 00:11:57,580 ground forever look about 200 years with 261 00:12:02,190 --> 00:11:59,860 it but I'm with ya and no way that's 262 00:12:03,660 --> 00:12:02,200 just call back yeah but the the other 263 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:03,670 issue is who's going to buy it you know 264 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:05,410 China's not buying it as much as they 265 00:12:09,210 --> 00:12:07,330 used to anymore so that's one of the 266 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:09,220 biggest problems is other countries who 267 00:12:12,990 --> 00:12:11,050 we used to rely on to buy it I'm Basu 268 00:12:16,310 --> 00:12:13,000 velu tuvalu is just not pulling its 269 00:12:18,870 --> 00:12:16,320 weight like like they've got the dot TV 270 00:12:20,130 --> 00:12:18,880 web web thing but they aren't buying 271 00:12:22,770 --> 00:12:20,140 much of our stuff they're like that 272 00:12:25,260 --> 00:12:22,780 they're not buying much coal they're not 273 00:12:26,730 --> 00:12:25,270 buying any uranium I mean what no come 274 00:12:29,430 --> 00:12:26,740 on because I think they're sinking 275 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:29,440 actually Lena obviously they don't want 276 00:12:32,610 --> 00:12:30,490 to buy anything cuz it's gonna make the 277 00:12:34,890 --> 00:12:32,620 island heavier and you don't want that 278 00:12:38,130 --> 00:12:34,900 yeah because you know like the planets 279 00:12:39,570 --> 00:12:38,140 warming up and stuff um so no I mean 280 00:12:42,180 --> 00:12:39,580 there was an article in The Australian 281 00:12:43,650 --> 00:12:42,190 media just last week about four nobel 282 00:12:46,350 --> 00:12:43,660 prize winners from Australia who came 283 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:46,360 out and had a real go at the government 284 00:12:50,340 --> 00:12:48,490 saying look you know this is not just an 285 00:12:52,530 --> 00:12:50,350 issue of one industry of people it's an 286 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:52,540 issue of the country we've got to invest 287 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:54,010 in something that's not just digging 288 00:12:57,210 --> 00:12:55,330 stuff out of the ground because it's not 289 00:12:59,460 --> 00:12:57,220 sustainable in terms of economical 290 00:13:01,050 --> 00:12:59,470 things so there was three Nobel Prize 291 00:13:02,070 --> 00:13:01,060 winners and three aria award winners 292 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:02,080 that the guy with the big hair for 293 00:13:06,540 --> 00:13:03,850 Wolfmother came out and he was harsh 294 00:13:07,980 --> 00:13:06,550 what she quickly for this CSIRO things 295 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:07,990 got to stop he said but people couldn't 296 00:13:11,340 --> 00:13:09,130 understand it cuz he was talking to it 297 00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:11,350 here well what does Simon de have to say 298 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:13,510 about it did you ask him today you had a 299 00:13:16,380 --> 00:13:14,890 hangover and he think think think we 300 00:13:18,630 --> 00:13:16,390 should really throw that money behind a 301 00:13:20,010 --> 00:13:18,640 hangover based recovery okay we'll see 302 00:13:22,260 --> 00:13:20,020 that's something that we could pursue 303 00:13:26,580 --> 00:13:22,270 and you know I'm happy to do that but um 304 00:13:28,770 --> 00:13:26,590 yeah so I mean it in fact up until this 305 00:13:31,020 --> 00:13:28,780 point anyway most of my money had come 306 00:13:32,850 --> 00:13:31,030 from America in any case you 307 00:13:34,650 --> 00:13:32,860 I've never got any money from the 308 00:13:36,810 --> 00:13:34,660 australian government in terms of my 309 00:13:38,220 --> 00:13:36,820 research and my clinical trials are 310 00:13:40,830 --> 00:13:38,230 being run in America because we can't 311 00:13:42,330 --> 00:13:40,840 afford to run them here because if you 312 00:13:43,740 --> 00:13:42,340 weren't exactly what rachel has been 313 00:13:45,810 --> 00:13:43,750 doing please look up talked about to 314 00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:45,820 Dunlop and her work and you there's some 315 00:13:48,630 --> 00:13:47,110 nice summaries of it that aren't on 316 00:13:50,550 --> 00:13:48,640 PubMed that people can understand oh 317 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:50,560 yeah there's I mean I gab about a little 318 00:13:54,330 --> 00:13:52,090 over the place so yeah you'll find it 319 00:13:55,500 --> 00:13:54,340 everywhere ya know we had to stop a 320 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:55,510 talking she was talking to some just 321 00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:56,650 people in the street there was like some 322 00:14:00,000 --> 00:13:57,970 homeless people she was just trying to 323 00:14:01,620 --> 00:14:00,010 do you know about that i'll shut up they 324 00:14:02,820 --> 00:14:01,630 even they knew they wouldn't have it 325 00:14:04,620 --> 00:14:02,830 they said look just go upstairs with the 326 00:14:05,940 --> 00:14:04,630 skeptics okay but look you're looking 327 00:14:08,340 --> 00:14:05,950 fine you're looking great and whatever 328 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:08,350 you got ahead of you I'm sure it's big 329 00:14:12,150 --> 00:14:10,210 and bright well may not I don't have a 330 00:14:13,740 --> 00:14:12,160 job anymore so maybe I'll have time to 331 00:14:16,020 --> 00:14:13,750 do some more reports for the show which 332 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:16,030 would be good wouldn't it Wow I think 333 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:17,410 you I think you would you should get in 334 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:18,490 there and get but you have been on the 335 00:14:22,020 --> 00:14:20,050 project a lot and you've been you've 336 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:22,030 been getting in there hard now I have 337 00:14:26,940 --> 00:14:24,250 been asking this of everyone a bit 338 00:14:30,210 --> 00:14:26,950 tonight and that is if you could ban 339 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:30,220 banished from the planet one only one 340 00:14:38,190 --> 00:14:33,730 non evidence-based modality which one 341 00:14:40,830 --> 00:14:38,200 would you pick only one only one Queen 342 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:40,840 rachel is going to speak and then there 343 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:42,250 will be no more of this and we must 344 00:14:45,810 --> 00:14:44,170 speak of it no more after you ban it 345 00:14:47,940 --> 00:14:45,820 what would it be controversial though 346 00:14:50,010 --> 00:14:47,950 what I say and it might make us some 347 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:50,020 people a little bit cranky okay so in 348 00:14:53,970 --> 00:14:52,810 one non evidence-based medical modality 349 00:14:55,740 --> 00:14:53,980 okay so I'm going to have to paraphrase 350 00:14:58,430 --> 00:14:55,750 it by saying it's only the non 351 00:15:01,800 --> 00:14:58,440 evidence-based section of this modality 352 00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:01,810 which is unfortunately a lot of it and 353 00:15:05,850 --> 00:15:04,510 I'd have to say chiropractic and I'd 354 00:15:08,430 --> 00:15:05,860 have to say that because it's considered 355 00:15:10,650 --> 00:15:08,440 mainstream by many people it's not 356 00:15:11,970 --> 00:15:10,660 considered alternative at all so people 357 00:15:15,690 --> 00:15:11,980 don't even know that it's not 358 00:15:16,650 --> 00:15:15,700 evidence-based and it's some of it some 359 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:16,660 of the things they do are quite 360 00:15:21,300 --> 00:15:19,330 pernicious because they come across they 361 00:15:24,650 --> 00:15:21,310 call themselves doctor so where was the 362 00:15:26,730 --> 00:15:24,660 line is it is a rough line where the 363 00:15:29,670 --> 00:15:26,740 evidence-based stopped and the non and 364 00:15:31,380 --> 00:15:29,680 evidence-based started is there one fact 365 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:31,390 that they grab onto that from that point 366 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:33,610 on is non evidence-based yeah and that 367 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:36,490 is that there's subluxation some magical 368 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:38,170 subluxations in people's spines they 369 00:15:42,210 --> 00:15:40,810 affect their entire health so if you 370 00:15:44,660 --> 00:15:42,220 crack someone's back it was 371 00:15:46,890 --> 00:15:44,670 prevent them from getting it will 372 00:15:49,650 --> 00:15:46,900 correct their hearing impairment or 373 00:15:52,260 --> 00:15:49,660 it'll fix their sinuses or something so 374 00:15:55,500 --> 00:15:52,270 that is really changing I mean I once 375 00:15:56,670 --> 00:15:55,510 had like a bit of a what a contortion 376 00:15:58,650 --> 00:15:56,680 what I they call when they do that when 377 00:16:00,660 --> 00:15:58,660 they do the movement it's an entire okay 378 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:00,670 well I had my back cracked and before 379 00:16:04,110 --> 00:16:01,930 that I never liked the music of the 380 00:16:05,850 --> 00:16:04,120 sharp but after that I couldn't get 381 00:16:08,900 --> 00:16:05,860 enough of train of thought I could not 382 00:16:12,510 --> 00:16:08,910 it was just amazing my train of thought 383 00:16:15,900 --> 00:16:12,520 actually know that there was a Meridian 384 00:16:17,310 --> 00:16:15,910 Line or whatever for the shop there is 385 00:16:19,050 --> 00:16:17,320 yeah and and you know and it's 386 00:16:20,190 --> 00:16:19,060 interesting cuz the sharp but the living 387 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:20,200 end even though they have a similar line 388 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:21,850 up didn't affect me so it was very 389 00:16:25,890 --> 00:16:23,410 specific it was a bit like it was a 390 00:16:27,210 --> 00:16:25,900 targeted targeted receptor well that you 391 00:16:28,740 --> 00:16:27,220 see I mean maybe that's something we 392 00:16:30,090 --> 00:16:28,750 should research more because that could 393 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:30,100 be something we could follow up you know 394 00:16:34,380 --> 00:16:32,650 although other sharp still together yeah 395 00:16:35,970 --> 00:16:34,390 look and look no matter and look alive 396 00:16:38,220 --> 00:16:35,980 love Australian bands look maybe this 397 00:16:40,170 --> 00:16:38,230 sharpie look look and look a lot of 398 00:16:41,670 --> 00:16:40,180 Australian bad

bittering agent to make it unpalatable 497 00:20:57,060 --> 00:20:55,000 after all the bittering agent should not 498 00:20:59,970 --> 00:20:57,070 matter in the least if the milk is being 499 00:21:04,290 --> 00:20:59,980 used to bathe in as was its advertised 500 00:21:07,020 --> 00:21:04,300 purpose a Rebecca freer from Melbourne 501 00:21:10,170 --> 00:21:07,030 runs to facebook pages

infectious disease 521 00:22:07,950 --> 00:22:04,900 physician and microbiologist professor 522 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:07,960 peter collignon said he was concerned by 523 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:10,210 the drinking and that uninformed people 524 00:22:15,900 --> 00:22:12,730 may try the product thinking raw also 525 00:22:16,290 --> 00:22:15,910 meant healthy I would advise no one to 526 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:16,300 parties 527 00:22:22,050 --> 00:22:19,450 page he said if they try to say to 528 00:22:24,300 --> 00:22:22,060 people raw milk is more pure they are 529 00:22:27,810 --> 00:22:24,310 wrong and are trying to get people to do 530 00:22:29,550 --> 00:22:27,820 something dangerous he said the raw milk 531 00:22:32,220 --> 00:22:29,560 movement page then posted the

asking about our drinking 535 00:22:41,370 --> 00:22:38,980 apparently according to the Guardian 536 00:22:42,750 --> 00:22:41,380 journalist our drinking is disrespectful 537 00:22:45,330 --> 00:22:42,760 to the families of the children that 538 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:45,340 allegedly became unwell because of the 539 00:22:50,220 --> 00:22:47,890 milk Wow isn't it pretty disrespectful 540 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:50,230 to accuse a farmer of producing and 541 00:22:54,660 --> 00:22:52,170 selling killer milk with zero evidence 542 00:22:56,730 --> 00:22:54,670 when did it become disrespectful to 543 00:22:58,890 --> 00:22:56,740 assert your rights and have an opinion I 544 00:23:01,770 --> 00:22:58,900 think it's fair to say we are in the 545 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:01,780 midst of violent resistance at least we 546 00:23:08,790 --> 00:23:04,210 have moved on from denial get ready 547 00:23:10,830 --> 00:23:08,800 people the fight is on the drink in went 548 00:23:12,900 --> 00:23:10,840 ahead with the attendees protesting 549 00:23:14,730 --> 00:23:12,910 against the new law and footage of 550 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:14,740 parents feeding their children raw milk 551 00:23:20,250 --> 00:23:17,050 and wearing t-shirts saying hands off 552 00:23:22,830 --> 00:23:20,260 our milk Rebecca free led the protest 553 00:23:25,350 --> 00:23:22,840 and when interviewed there by the ABC 554 00:23:28,970 --> 00:23:25,360 said that unpasteurized milk should be 555 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:28,980 regulated and not banned she said quote 556 00:23:33,540 --> 00:23:31,210 but there has to be certain things 557 00:23:35,100 --> 00:23:33,550 happening for it to be safe so if you 558 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:35,110 look at other parts of the world they're 559 00:23:39,390 --> 00:23:37,090 very clear on stipulating that the cows 560 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:39,400 need to be really healthy the cows are 561 00:23:46,710 --> 00:23:42,010 grass-fed these are not factory farm 562 00:23:49,650 --> 00:23:46,720 cows end quote when I headed on over to 563 00:23:53,550 --> 00:23:49,660 the raw store's website the raw store 564 00:23:56,550 --> 00:23:53,560 net a you I was greeted by a photo of a 565 00:24:00,480 --> 00:23:56,560 homemade sign being held up by two hands 566 00:24:03,060 --> 00:24:00,490 but an unseen face the sign stated in 567 00:24:06,630 --> 00:24:03,070 large black lettering I drink raw milk 568 00:24:08,790 --> 00:24:06,640 arrest me interesting that the person 569 00:24:11,970 --> 00:24:08,800 holding that provocative sign wishes to 570 00:24:13,830 --> 00:24:11,980 remain anonymous so they are no longer 571 00:24:16,350 --> 00:24:13,840 pretending that the milk is being used 572 00:24:18,450 --> 00:24:16,360 for bathing in so how do they justify 573 00:24:20,700 --> 00:24:18,460 selling milk which is illegal to sell 574 00:24:23,630 --> 00:24:20,710 for human consumption here's their 575 00:24:26,070 --> 00:24:23,640 theory from the Australian raw milk page 576 00:24:28,070 --> 00:24:26,080 not all of us have the luxury of being 577 00:24:30,769 --> 00:24:28,080 able to support a house cow in 578 00:24:32,810 --> 00:24:30,779 backyards so those people wanting to 579 00:24:34,789 --> 00:24:32,820 obtain it in this manner often chose to 580 00:24:37,190 --> 00:24:34,799 purchase a share of an animal and pay 581 00:24:39,740 --> 00:24:37,200 the producer to look after the cow milk 582 00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:39,750 it and deliver the milk to them the milk 583 00:24:43,399 --> 00:24:41,370 they legally owned as part of the 584 00:24:46,009 --> 00:24:43,409 agreement with the producer this 585 00:24:48,710 --> 00:24:46,019 arrangement is called a herd chair or 586 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:48,720 couch air the milk is not sold the 587 00:24:52,580 --> 00:24:50,730 consumer owns the animal and is merely 588 00:24:55,490 --> 00:24:52,590 receiving the milk they are entitled to 589 00:24:56,870 --> 00:24:55,500 as the owner of the animal the producer 590 00:24:59,690 --> 00:24:56,880 simply cares for the animal and 591 00:25:01,789 --> 00:24:59,700 distributes the milk to them this is 592 00:25:05,990 --> 00:25:01,799 legal under the current legislation as 593 00:25:08,210 --> 00:25:06,000 the milk is not being sold this is also 594 00:25:10,310 --> 00:25:08,220 the defense that a South Australian 595 00:25:12,460 --> 00:25:10,320 couple are currently using in court 596 00:25:16,549 --> 00:25:12,470 they're on trial for selling raw milk 597 00:25:18,620 --> 00:25:16,559 vehicle share scheme in april 2013 an 598 00:25:21,289 --> 00:25:18,630 investigator from South Australian 599 00:25:23,389 --> 00:25:21,299 Primary Industries and resources bought 600 00:25:26,139 --> 00:25:23,399 a share of their herd and had the milk 601 00:25:28,430 --> 00:25:26,149 tested the results were that there were 602 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:28,440 microbiological levels well in excess of 603 00:25:34,310 --> 00:25:32,610 those allowed by Food Standards that 604 00:25:36,740 --> 00:25:34,320 couple brought one of their dairy cows 605 00:25:38,899 --> 00:25:36,750 to court with them they also had a 606 00:25:41,389 --> 00:25:38,909 shareholder turn up to court in a cow 607 00:25:44,060 --> 00:25:41,399 onesie declaring her support for the 608 00:25:46,009 --> 00:25:44,070 couple she said that she was allowed by 609 00:25:48,769 --> 00:25:46,019 law to drink alcohol and eat junk food 610 00:25:51,769 --> 00:25:48,779 so she should also be allowed to by law 611 00:25:53,509 --> 00:25:51,779 to drink raw milk here's another quote 612 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:53,519 from that shareholder in a story by the 613 00:25:59,450 --> 00:25:57,210 ABC I have gone to visit the farm but I 614 00:26:02,450 --> 00:25:59,460 have not gone specifically to visit my 615 00:26:04,639 --> 00:26:02,460 cow if there was a label on my cow I 616 00:26:08,149 --> 00:26:04,649 could certainly identify my cow I 617 00:26:10,460 --> 00:26:08,159 believe it's a Frisian the 618 00:26:12,409 --> 00:26:10,470 physiotherapist then gym owner admitted 619 00:26:14,299 --> 00:26:12,419 she received milk from cows other than 620 00:26:15,830 --> 00:26:14,309 her own because the milk from all cows 621 00:26:18,950 --> 00:26:15,840 on the property was pulled before 622 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:18,960 distribution mr. Tyler from the farm 623 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:20,970 said pooling the milk prevented health 624 00:26:25,940 --> 00:26:23,730 risks part of the reason for pulling all 625 00:26:28,039 --> 00:26:25,950 the milk into one VAT and refrigerating 626 00:26:31,250 --> 00:26:28,049 it quickly is to protect the health of 627 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:31,260 the shareholders he said it would go 628 00:26:35,060 --> 00:26:32,730 against the best interest of the 629 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:35,070 participants if we had to milk each cow 630 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:37,970 individually and do it all separately 631 00:26:43,990 --> 00:26:41,650 the trial will resume in my 632 00:26:47,110 --> 00:26:44,000 so what were other supporters and 633 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:47,120 shareholders saying on social media well 634 00:26:51,990 --> 00:26:49,490 there were comments such as the Sun 635 00:26:54,669 --> 00:26:52,000 causes melanoma let's ban the Sun and 636 00:26:57,460 --> 00:26:54,679 junk food is killing us why don't they 637 00:26:59,680 --> 00:26:57,470 ban that there are also others saying 638 00:27:01,810 --> 00:26:59,690 that raw milk very rarely causes deaths 639 00:27:04,260 --> 00:27:01,820 so everyone is having a knee-jerk 640 00:27:08,110 --> 00:27:04,270 reaction to the death of this toddler 641 00:27:10,360 --> 00:27:08,120 nice i noticed that no one that i could 642 00:27:12,220 --> 00:27:10,370 see was posting anything about a the 643 00:27:14,919 --> 00:27:12,230 morbidity rates associated with 644 00:27:17,350 --> 00:27:14,929 ingesting raw milk and be what the 645 00:27:21,310 --> 00:27:17,360 relative risks were of raw milk versus 646 00:27:24,220 --> 00:27:21,320 pasteurized milk consumption so I posted 647 00:27:28,779 --> 00:27:24,230 some CDC statistics on one of the raw 648 00:27:32,890 --> 00:27:28,789 milk movement threads quote from 1998 649 00:27:34,690 --> 00:27:32,900 through 2011 148 outbreaks due to 650 00:27:37,690 --> 00:27:34,700 consumption of raw milk or raw milk 651 00:27:42,930 --> 00:27:37,700 products were reported to the CDC these 652 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:42,940 resulted in 2384 illnesses 284 653 00:27:48,610 --> 00:27:45,530 hospitalizations and two deaths and 654 00:27:51,159 --> 00:27:48,620 quote I also commented that 655 00:27:53,860 --> 00:27:51,169 hospitalizations result not just from 656 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:53,870 vomiting and diarrhea guillain-barre 657 00:27:59,320 --> 00:27:56,090 syndrome can occur leading to paralysis 658 00:28:02,549 --> 00:27:59,330 and hemolytic uremic syndrome can result 659 00:28:05,140 --> 00:28:02,559 leading to kidney failure and Stroke my 660 00:28:07,419 --> 00:28:05,150 comments were promptly deleted and I've 661 00:28:12,730 --> 00:28:07,429 been banned from commenting further on 662 00:28:15,490 --> 00:28:12,740 the page tangent that's about the sixth 663 00:28:20,060 --> 00:28:15,500 or seventh Facebook page I've been 664 00:28:25,500 --> 00:28:22,650 others include the Australian of 665 00:28:29,310 --> 00:28:25,510 vaccination skeptics Network food babe 666 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:29,320 Pete Evans a pro-black self page and a 667 00:28:33,930 --> 00:28:32,050 particular Northern Rivers vets page he 668 00:28:36,870 --> 00:28:33,940 provides homeopathic alternatives to 669 00:28:38,940 --> 00:28:36,880 vaccinations in animals I can't say I've 670 00:28:41,730 --> 00:28:38,950 ever seen a pro science page ever delete 671 00:28:46,830 --> 00:28:41,740 someone who's had valid facts on their 672 00:28:50,460 --> 00:28:46,840 side anyway so what does the CDC say 673 00:28:54,380 --> 00:28:50,470 about relative risk quote the incidence 674 00:28:57,150 --> 00:28:54,390 of reported outbreaks from 1993 to 2006 675 00:29:00,660 --> 00:28:57,160 involving non pasteurized dairy products 676 00:29:02,850 --> 00:29:00,670 was around 150 times greater per unit of 677 00:29:05,220 --> 00:29:02,860 dairy product consumed than the 678 00:29:08,820 --> 00:29:05,230 incidents involving pasteurized products 679 00:29:10,650 --> 00:29:08,830 if as is probably likely less than 1% of 680 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:10,660 dairy products are consumed non 681 00:29:16,140 --> 00:29:13,810 pasteurized then the relative risk per 682 00:29:19,470 --> 00:29:16,150 unit of non pasteurized dairy product 683 00:29:22,620 --> 00:29:19,480 consumed would be even higher and this 684 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:22,630 quote the hospitalization rate for 685 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:24,730 patients in outbreaks caused by raw milk 686 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:27,970 was 13 times higher thirteen percent 687 00:29:31,770 --> 00:29:30,250 versus one percent then the rate for 688 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:31,780 people in outbreaks caused by 689 00:29:36,570 --> 00:29:34,690 pasteurized milk this difference is 690 00:29:38,870 --> 00:29:36,580 probably partly because the outbreaks 691 00:29:41,610 --> 00:29:38,880 caused by raw milk were all caused by 692 00:29:47,730 --> 00:29:41,620 bacterial infections that tend to be 693 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:47,740 more severe for example a coli o157 h7 a 694 00:29:52,020 --> 00:29:49,930 bacterium that can cause kidney failure 695 00:29:54,930 --> 00:29:52,030 and death was a common cause of 696 00:29:57,690 --> 00:29:54,940 outbreaks due to raw milk for outbreaks 697 00:29:59,700 --> 00:29:57,700 caused by pasteurized milk relatively 698 00:30:04,100 --> 00:29:59,710 mild viral infections and foodborne 699 00:30:07,050 --> 00:30:04,110 toxins were more common causes end quote 700 00:30:08,940 --> 00:30:07,060 perhaps if you know all the risks of 701 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:08,950 ingesting raw milk that is not straight 702 00:30:14,820 --> 00:30:11,530 from the cow and you still choose to do 703 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:14,830 it you should be able to the issue is 704 00:30:18,150 --> 00:30:16,210 that this product is being fed to 705 00:30:20,130 --> 00:30:18,160 children all around the country who rely 706 00:30:22,890 --> 00:30:20,140 on their caregivers to protect them from 707 00:30:25,290 --> 00:30:22,900 harm we strap our kids into their car 708 00:30:28,010 --> 00:30:25,300 seats we don't shove cigarettes in their 709 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:28,020 mouths or give them alcohol to drink 710 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:30,610 perhaps we should also avoid giving them 711 00:30:35,370 --> 00:30:32,770 a product that has no proven benefit 712 00:30:39,290 --> 00:30:35,380 above pasteurized milk but which has a 713 00:30:42,780 --> 00:30:39,300 much higher risk associated with it 714 00:30:45,090 --> 00:30:42,790 that's it from me take a look at our 715 00:30:47,910 --> 00:30:45,100 group's website we are the Northern 716 00:30:52,830 --> 00:30:47,920 Rivers vaccination supporters and can be 717 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:52,840 found at nrvs dot info on facebook at 718 00:30:58,230 --> 00:30:54,610

answer is 804 00:34:52,580 --> 00:34:48,300 electricity given by batteries but I got 805 00:34:54,619 --> 00:34:52,590 answers in like testosterone vanity you 806 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:54,629 know but you actually better than me 807 00:34:58,520 --> 00:34:56,490 alarms they're funnier Nevada the bid 808 00:35:00,560 --> 00:34:58,530 bid on the relation you score according 809 00:35:03,349 --> 00:35:00,570 to imagination not necessarily the right 810 00:35:05,660 --> 00:35:03,359 hand side oaks court orders I just look 811 00:35:08,210 --> 00:35:05,670 at the answer I used to a pointer we 812 00:35:11,210 --> 00:35:08,220 know every month um it's all the same 813 00:35:13,970 --> 00:35:11,220 people to do it so if you google on dr. 814 00:35:16,130 --> 00:35:13,980 Bob's trivia quiz yeah you know come up 815 00:35:17,240 --> 00:35:16,140 and done this you're still going it's 816 00:35:20,630 --> 00:35:17,250 getting harder and harder to find 817 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:20,640 questions and I kind of not very web 818 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:22,650 savvy so I've recently been able to put 819 00:35:27,290 --> 00:35:24,090 pictures on it let's take me some time 820 00:35:28,790 --> 00:35:27,300 to find out how yeah but is easier with 821 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:28,800 pictures you can put a picture of cell 822 00:35:32,330 --> 00:35:30,690 you up and say what's this yeah the 823 00:35:33,650 --> 00:35:32,340 people can have a shot at it alright 824 00:35:35,900 --> 00:35:33,660 well that's great well thanks for 825 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:35,910 dropping by Steve are in the coming 826 00:35:39,830 --> 00:35:38,010 weeks i'll ask you little bits and 827 00:35:41,240 --> 00:35:39,840 pieces some other topics i know you've 828 00:35:43,700 --> 00:35:41,250 been a long time skeptic in the 829 00:35:45,230 --> 00:35:43,710 skeptical supporter and well on behalf 830 00:35:46,609 --> 00:35:45,240 of the skeptic zone and the listeners 831 00:35:49,730 --> 00:35:46,619 thank you for being a sponsor of the 832 00:35:51,990 --> 00:35:49,740 show oh no whoa is Richard 833 00:35:54,090 --> 00:35:52,000 welcome to a week in science from our 834 00:35:57,150 --> 00:35:54,100 iOS bringing you the science you need to 835 00:36:00,720 --> 00:35:57,160 know 2014 was a great year for science 836 00:36:02,460 --> 00:36:00,730 but how would 2015 compare here's three 837 00:36:08,550 --> 00:36:02,470 exciting things that we're watching out 838 00:36:10,620 --> 00:36:08,560 for firstly we've got high hopes for 839 00:36:14,550 --> 00:36:10,630 NASA's new Horizons mission to study 840 00:36:17,190 --> 00:36:14,560 Pluto and its moons launched in 2006 and 841 00:36:19,950 --> 00:36:17,200 hibernating since the spacecraft was 842 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:19,960 woken up late 2014 to prepare for its 843 00:36:24,930 --> 00:36:22,210 encounter with the Pluto system some 844 00:36:26,850 --> 00:36:24,940 three billion miles from Earth one 845 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:26,860 difficulty will be communicating with 846 00:36:31,860 --> 00:36:28,690 the spacecraft across such a long 847 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:31,870 distance to give you some idea the wake 848 00:36:35,970 --> 00:36:33,970 up messages from New Horizons took 849 00:36:39,030 --> 00:36:35,980 nearly four and a half hours to reach 850 00:36:41,130 --> 00:36:39,040 Earth the mission is to study Pluto and 851 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:41,140 its moons to understand more about them 852 00:36:45,270 --> 00:36:43,570 and how they fit in our solar system the 853 00:36:47,430 --> 00:36:45,280 New Horizons spacecraft will then 854 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:47,440 continue on to study the Kuiper belt a 855 00:36:51,900 --> 00:36:49,210 rocky region surrounding our solar 856 00:36:57,180 --> 00:36:51,910 system made up of icy remnants from when 857 00:36:58,980 --> 00:36:57,190 the solar system was formed in 2015 two 858 00:37:00,870 --> 00:36:58,990 swiss explorers will attempt to 859 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:00,880 circumnavigate the globe in a solar 860 00:37:05,940 --> 00:37:03,490 powered plane it's a single-seat 861 00:37:09,090 --> 00:37:05,950 aircraft made of carbon fiber with a 862 00:37:12,180 --> 00:37:09,100 wingspan of 72 meters it's wider than a 863 00:37:13,940 --> 00:37:12,190 Boeing 747 but at weighs just two 864 00:37:16,830 --> 00:37:13,950 thousand three hundred kilograms 865 00:37:19,190 --> 00:37:16,840 covering the wings are 17,000 solar 866 00:37:22,580 --> 00:37:19,200 cells running four electric motors 867 00:37:26,070 --> 00:37:22,590 during the day the solar cells recharge 868 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:26,080 663 kilograms of lithium batteries so 869 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:29,050 the aircraft can fly at night they're 35 870 00:37:34,230 --> 00:37:31,330 thousand kilometer journey is expected 871 00:37:37,110 --> 00:37:34,240 to take around 500 total flying hours 872 00:37:38,610 --> 00:37:37,120 with only ten stops this project could 873 00:37:41,370 --> 00:37:38,620 be a breakthrough for solar powered 874 00:37:43,350 --> 00:37:41,380 flight but at an average speed of 70 875 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:43,360 kilometers an hour it's probably some 876 00:37:50,010 --> 00:37:47,290 time before it will be used commercially 877 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:50,020 and finally we think you should keep an 878 00:37:55,020 --> 00:37:52,330 eye on the Bloodhound SSC project from 879 00:37:57,150 --> 00:37:55,030 the UK the bloodhound supersonic car 880 00:38:00,000 --> 00:37:57,160 will attempt to break the current land 881 00:38:03,720 --> 00:38:00,010 speed record the aim is 1,000 miles per 882 00:38:07,020 --> 00:38:03,730 hour or over 1,600 kilometers per hour 883 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:07,030 given that the current record is 763 884 00:38:12,510 --> 00:38:09,610 miles per hour this is a massive jump 885 00:38:15,450 --> 00:38:12,520 the project is run by Richard noble and 886 00:38:17,730 --> 00:38:15,460 features pilot Andy green together they 887 00:38:19,410 --> 00:38:17,740 hold the current land speed record the 888 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:19,420 reason for attempting to break their own 889 00:38:24,390 --> 00:38:22,210 record is to inspire school students to 890 00:38:26,610 --> 00:38:24,400 study science technology engineering and 891 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:26,620 maths at University their record 892 00:38:31,860 --> 00:38:29,770 attempts will be in 2016 but 2015 will 893 00:38:35,100 --> 00:38:31,870 see their first high speed test in the 894 00:38:37,380 --> 00:38:35,110 car that's out 2015 watch list there's 895 00:38:42,570 --> 00:38:37,390 more information on the rirs website are 896 00:38:58,370 --> 00:38:42,580 I aus org dot a you I'm Tony Amaya and 897 00:39:03,540 --> 00:39:01,920

paranormal tests and consumer 917 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:39,700 activism to find out more Google 918 00:39:50,970 --> 00:39:41,890 Norwegian skeptics or visit skep 919 00:39:59,220 --> 00:39:55,980 here's may not spooky action at the 920 00:40:03,130 --> 00:40:01,540 people rushing people hushing people 921 00:40:05,020 --> 00:40:03,140 shushing people go and get out of my lap 922 00:40:06,610 --> 00:40:05,030 because it's all happening here at 923 00:40:09,370 --> 00:40:06,620 skeptics in the pub the crown hotel 924 00:40:11,620 --> 00:40:09,380 first thursday of each month it goes off 925 00:40:13,030 --> 00:40:11,630 and who we got here David David I've 926 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:13,040 spoken to a few times and of course 927 00:40:18,610 --> 00:40:15,610 James Randi has announced he's retiring 928 00:40:20,950 --> 00:40:18,620 do we need leaders still in the septagon 929 00:40:23,290 --> 00:40:20,960 movement or is a bit more organic do we 930 00:40:25,720 --> 00:40:23,300 really need people like that at this 931 00:40:28,690 --> 00:40:25,730 point probably not anymore but he did 932 00:40:31,240 --> 00:40:28,700 start the entire movement along with 933 00:40:32,170 --> 00:40:31,250 nichole seguin i think so i think i 934 00:40:34,270 --> 00:40:32,180 would get along quite where they were 935 00:40:35,770 --> 00:40:34,280 okay without him so we don't need a 936 00:40:38,530 --> 00:40:35,780 replacement you aren't thinking of 937 00:40:40,570 --> 00:40:38,540 growing a beard ah no I don't take 938 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:40,580 agrego a white beard anyway at my age 939 00:40:46,300 --> 00:40:43,010 well look the word on the street is he 940 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:46,310 bleaches his anyway all ok ok ok so you 941 00:40:50,380 --> 00:40:47,890 reckon it is a bit more organic now 942 00:40:53,830 --> 00:40:50,390 it'll probably get along by go along by 943 00:40:55,090 --> 00:40:53,840 itself ok James Randi is retiring you've 944 00:40:56,740 --> 00:40:55,100 got a bit of a beard there you could 945 00:40:58,870 --> 00:40:56,750 grow the beard you couldn't bleach it a 946 00:41:00,640 --> 00:40:58,880 bit you could be the new James Randi do 947 00:41:02,530 --> 00:41:00,650 we need leaders like that in the 948 00:41:05,830 --> 00:41:02,540 skeptical movement now I think when 949 00:41:07,630 --> 00:41:05,840 James from james randi duties so that a 950 00:41:11,250 --> 00:41:07,640 good purpose to get it all started on 951 00:41:13,380 --> 00:41:11,260 and he's got to take it easy now 952 00:41:15,900 --> 00:41:13,390 and then there are armed there are 953 00:41:19,380 --> 00:41:15,910 others who can sort of up there with him 954 00:41:21,510 --> 00:41:19,390 I think it'll it'll go on quite 955 00:41:22,770 --> 00:41:21,520 swimmingly with it without him and okay 956 00:41:25,530 --> 00:41:22,780 well so you think we're a bit more 957 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:25,540 organic now don't need leaders yeah we 958 00:41:30,390 --> 00:41:27,490 need leaders but we don't we could 959 00:41:32,370 --> 00:41:30,400 probably go quite well with without 960 00:41:34,380 --> 00:41:32,380 somebody up this heavy weight is Randy 961 00:41:35,970 --> 00:41:34,390 I'm here at the bar which is where the 962 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:35,980 true opinions are heard in fact if 963 00:41:38,820 --> 00:41:37,210 you're not at the bar really you're 964 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:38,830 wasting your time so with james randi 965 00:41:43,170 --> 00:41:41,650 moving on do we need leaders I think 966 00:41:44,820 --> 00:41:43,180 we're still always need leaders you know 967 00:41:46,590 --> 00:41:44,830 otherwise you're just a bunch of cats I 968 00:41:50,700 --> 00:41:46,600 mean it skeptic sahar and after heard as 969 00:41:51,570 --> 00:41:50,710 it is you got any suggestions oh geez I 970 00:41:54,450 --> 00:41:51,580 don't know who would take his place 971 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:54,460 maybe stephen develop that or any of 972 00:41:57,540 --> 00:41:56,050 that team I need that team actually that 973 00:41:59,520 --> 00:41:57,550 they're all well-spoken the great Evan 974 00:42:02,430 --> 00:41:59,530 Bernstein you know the brothers and yeah 975 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:02,440 fantastic yeah and yeah it was a bit I 976 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:04,090 knew Randy was getting on a bit but I 977 00:42:06,510 --> 00:42:05,170 didn't know he was going to officially 978 00:42:08,820 --> 00:42:06,520 announce his retirement I thought he was 979 00:42:10,650 --> 00:42:08,830 just gonna slowly sort of fade away 980 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:10,660 there and go okay I won't do as much but 981 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:12,010 it's like that's it I'm putting my feet 982 00:42:14,310 --> 00:42:13,450 up that's why that's what I would have 983 00:42:15,930 --> 00:42:14,320 thought i would have thought he just 984 00:42:17,370 --> 00:42:15,940 would have been there till whenever you 985 00:42:19,170 --> 00:42:17,380 know decided they couldn't do it i 986 00:42:21,510 --> 00:42:19,180 reckon he's decided to retire because 987 00:42:23,190 --> 00:42:21,520 he's finally going to shave maybe that's 988 00:42:25,380 --> 00:42:23,200 it and they can never be recognized no 989 00:42:26,670 --> 00:42:25,390 no it is anyway so yeah it's raw it 990 00:42:28,710 --> 00:42:26,680 sounds like well it sounds like a plan 991 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:28,720 why not here's a moment a strong opinion 992 00:42:31,530 --> 00:42:29,890 and I haven't even finished their meal 993 00:42:33,210 --> 00:42:31,540 and they go strong opinion your head the 994 00:42:35,580 --> 00:42:33,220 glass is only half empty and you have a 995 00:42:38,730 --> 00:42:35,590 strong opinion what do you think I love 996 00:42:41,070 --> 00:42:38,740 James ready well yeah I mean touche Mesa 997 00:42:43,260 --> 00:42:41,080 is retiring my my theory is that he's 998 00:42:44,670 --> 00:42:43,270 actually decided to shave so now know 999 00:42:46,470 --> 00:42:44,680 what he look like anyway if he did but 1000 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:46,480 but you know I mean it's not like he 1001 00:42:51,570 --> 00:42:48,490 didn't give it a big dash I mean he'll 1002 00:42:54,030 --> 00:42:51,580 eat shouldn't he put his feet up yes he 1003 00:42:56,070 --> 00:42:54,040 deserves a wonderful retirement but yeah 1004 00:42:58,020 --> 00:42:56,080 we need figureheads like you to come 1005 00:42:59,430 --> 00:42:58,030 forward any suggestion who might be 1006 00:43:01,260 --> 00:42:59,440 someone that would be of a similar ilk 1007 00:43:05,010 --> 00:43:01,270 that could eat not so much replace him 1008 00:43:07,270 --> 00:43:05,020 but do this or thing Richard Saunders 1009 00:43:08,859 --> 00:43:07,280 that's true and I've got to say he 1010 00:43:12,370 --> 00:43:08,869 probably would cut quite a figure with a 1011 00:43:15,039 --> 00:43:12,380 beard yes yes it just yet give him some 1012 00:43:17,260 --> 00:43:15,049 time here you gentlemen got any thoughts 1013 00:43:19,329 --> 00:43:17,270 about this at all no I just love James 1014 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:19,339 Randi yeah not sure who there's got to 1015 00:43:23,529 --> 00:43:20,930 be someone into james randi foundation 1016 00:43:25,329 --> 00:43:23,539 who who could proceed are succeeding 1017 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:25,339 it's been a lot of work I've these have 1018 00:43:29,170 --> 00:43:27,650 you got opinion on this at all sir yep I 1019 00:43:31,839 --> 00:43:29,180 think there should always be people to 1020 00:43:34,870 --> 00:43:31,849 do all the things that James Randi is 1021 00:43:36,370 --> 00:43:34,880 done because the sharpens are just 1022 00:43:39,279 --> 00:43:36,380 charlatans are just going to keep on 1023 00:43:41,140 --> 00:43:39,289 coming and look what's the whew that 1024 00:43:42,670 --> 00:43:41,150 really gets your goat by the way I often 1025 00:43:44,799 --> 00:43:42,680 ask people this well what's the Wu was 1026 00:43:47,650 --> 00:43:44,809 it astrology or what's the one that 1027 00:43:50,950 --> 00:43:47,660 really annoys you the most that's a hard 1028 00:43:54,789 --> 00:43:50,960 1i just hate cults in general but in 1029 00:43:59,400 --> 00:43:54,799 terms of general new age were I probably 1030 00:44:01,329 --> 00:43:59,410 think homeopathy is right up on the list 1031 00:44:03,099 --> 00:44:01,339 well I've moved to a different part of 1032 00:44:05,500 --> 00:44:03,109 the room where the red wine is flowing 1033 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:05,510 win the red wine section of the crown 1034 00:44:08,980 --> 00:44:07,130 hotel here now what do you think of the 1035 00:44:10,690 --> 00:44:08,990 issue of the evening about do we need a 1036 00:44:12,670 --> 00:44:10,700 replacement for James Randi do we need a 1037 00:44:15,490 --> 00:44:12,680 figurehead well I think it's always good 1038 00:44:17,950 --> 00:44:15,500 to have a charismatic person who is out 1039 00:44:21,910 --> 00:44:17,960 there spruiking your organization have 1040 00:44:23,260 --> 00:44:21,920 you any other any suggestions oh well 1041 00:44:26,049 --> 00:44:23,270 they need to be skeptical and 1042 00:44:28,930 --> 00:44:26,059 charismatic so a lot of your people have 1043 00:44:31,059 --> 00:44:28,940 said maybe comedians we've got skeptical 1044 00:44:32,289 --> 00:44:31,069 comedians or people of that that ilk 1045 00:44:34,359 --> 00:44:32,299 because they know how to think on their 1046 00:44:35,380 --> 00:44:34,369 feet and they know how to handle a press 1047 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:35,390 conference they might not have the 1048 00:44:39,490 --> 00:44:37,490 scientific backing but they'd be able to 1049 00:44:42,039 --> 00:44:39,500 so it's more important to have the 1050 00:44:44,289 --> 00:44:42,049 substance and then you find someone 1051 00:44:47,079 --> 00:44:44,299 who's got the facility you know to put 1052 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:47,089 the message across personally so we're 1053 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:48,890 looking for an australian stephen Fry's 1054 00:44:51,970 --> 00:44:50,210 that what you meant 1055 00:44:56,859 --> 00:44:51,980 it would be good but I don't think that 1056 00:44:58,480 --> 00:44:56,869 there is something sadly thank you well 1057 00:45:00,400 --> 00:44:58,490 do you think we still need a figurehead 1058 00:45:02,020 --> 00:45:00,410 like that in the movement or not I think 1059 00:45:04,329 --> 00:45:02,030 we have many of them you know and when 1060 00:45:07,390 --> 00:45:04,339 you look at Richard Dawkins and the 1061 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:07,400 skeptic guides the universe Crocker his 1062 00:45:13,329 --> 00:45:10,570 hepcidin merseyside guys what they do 1063 00:45:15,430 --> 00:45:13,339 I'm thinking Jay novella teach him a bit 1064 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:15,440 of a scape ology would a fake beard on 1065 00:45:19,870 --> 00:45:18,170 him you know he can do town yeah I 1066 00:45:21,849 --> 00:45:19,880 figure I think there's plenty of 1067 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:21,859 characters in the movement that will 1068 00:45:25,750 --> 00:45:23,930 progress it along new ones will come 1069 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:25,760 through and obviously we got Richard 1070 00:45:30,310 --> 00:45:28,010 here in Australia so I'm also thinking 1071 00:45:31,839 --> 00:45:30,320 how about teller I'm intelli talks when 1072 00:45:33,220 --> 00:45:31,849 he's not part of the Act he could be you 1073 00:45:35,020 --> 00:45:33,230 know tell it could be the new James 1074 00:45:37,240 --> 00:45:35,030 Randi what do you think sir well thank 1075 00:45:39,190 --> 00:45:37,250 you he's still your fanging into those 1076 00:45:42,010 --> 00:45:39,200 chips at haven't you eaten for two weeks 1077

magic act he'll be 1080 00:45:49,030 --> 00:45:47,810 back haha hey I have to be honest I 1081 00:45:50,530 --> 00:45:49,040 actually thought he'd already retired 1082 00:45:53,079 --> 00:45:50,540 when he cuz he stepped down from the 1083 00:45:54,310 --> 00:45:53,089 presidency of the sheriff other was 1084 00:45:55,990 --> 00:45:54,320 winding it back but he sort of 1085 00:45:57,550 --> 00:45:56,000 officially drawn a line under a year 1086 00:46:00,940 --> 00:45:57,560 well it doesn't surprise me he's not 1087 00:46:05,500 --> 00:46:00,950 exactly young anymore yeah 86 isn't 86 1088

00:46:18,200 I think there are plenty of prominent 1094 00:46:21,270 --> 00:46:19,910 people that can actually stand up and 1095 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:21,280 say things get noticed by the media 1096 00:46:25,390 --> 00:46:23,450 something people have been mentioning to 1097 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:25,400 me as I've asked this tonight is some 1098 00:46:28,150 --> 00:46:26,570 people have been

1190 00:49:46,330 --> 00:49:44,750 a bunch of facts so ice is just simply a 1191 00:49:48,730 --> 00:49:46,340 way to understand the world around us 1192 00:49:50,530 --> 00:49:48,740 and I'm very lucky to have been able to 1193 00:49:52,810 --> 00:49:50,540 have a platform such as double J then 1194 00:49:54,610 --> 00:49:52,820 triple j on which to expound that one 1195 00:49:56,860 --> 00:49:54,620 has been the science fact that has blown 1196 00:49:58,960 --> 00:49:56,870 your tiny mind and that of the listeners 1197 00:50:00,970 --> 00:49:58,970 over all the years there's so many in 1198 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:00,980 strange things through them now two of 1199 00:50:05,140 --> 00:50:02,930 them okay first one is that all a gold 1200 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:05,150 you'll ever see such as the gold in my 1201 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:08,210 wedding ring was manufactured or this 1202 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:11,690 gold was manufactured inside a star as 1203 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:14,210 it exploded and we're not going to get 1204 00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:16,370 any more / to you might think that the 1205 00:50:24,580 --> 00:50:20,210 Sun is a mighty beast but the compost 1206 00:50:27,420 --> 00:50:24,590 pile in my backyard in terms of how much 1207 00:50:30,810 --> 00:50:27,430 energy it generates per kilogram is 1208 00:50:35,540 --> 00:50:30,820 forty thousand times more powerful 1209 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:35,550 what Rick Rick oh wow that is very 1210 00:50:40,890 --> 00:50:39,490 powerful but it's very big and lazy so 1211 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:40,900
