of this point. What will be this velocity? We have to add 60. So, this is 60 degrees that is that. This is vcm and this is vcm by 2 and this angle is 60 degree. Can you find out now? Total velocity will be 2 into vcm square by 2 cos of 60. This is root over vcm square plus vcm square by 4 plus vcm square by 2. How much is this? What? vcm root 7 by 2. You first observe with a precto centromass and then add or find a total loss. Let us see with acceleration what we can do. To find the acceleration of these 4 points quickly minus a centripetal acceleration we are ignoring. We are ignoring centripetal acceleration. All of you understand this? There will be centripetal acceleration also. Fine. For that I need to know the velocity v square by r. The centripetal acceleration will be 2 at this point. What about centripetal acceleration at this point? How much will be this direction? Radial is that direction. This point tangential is alpha into r. Radial is a plus v square by r. There are small nuances you have to take care when you deal with anything. I am just telling you how you can analyze if something comes like this as a problem. Can you doubt? Next we will go down the cylinder. Axis moves up and down. Axis should travel section as a rolling in our cylinder. So when you see a rolling object, suppose you are going to be on the surface. So centromass will also have some velocity. The condition for this rolling, they should not. Now first let us discuss when we have this. The condition is not there. It will lose contact. No slip in. What is the condition in which no slip in is a condition in which at a point of contact, the point of contact 0. Having a contact relative velocity 0 means what? The velocity of one surface is equal to the velocity of the other. So at a point of contact velocity 0. Fine. Okay. So, what I was saying? Correct. So most of the time surface will be addressed. So what should be the velocity for no slipping? 0. If there is no slipping, got it? This point is in contact and what is its total velocity? What is its velocity? What are you thinking? So, what is the velocity of this point of contact? V plus. He is telling you which is not correct. Okay, whatever he told you is not correct. Apply your thoughts and tell me what is the answer. Point of contact velocity is what? Zero. In terms of V and R, I went to either a Come sit front, you are not paying attention. I am worried. Say you are worried in my face. Any way is easier. If you don't pay attention here, listen. Don't pay attention. You will never learn this and I have seen it. For the past 10 years I have seen this. Got it? What is the velocity? R omega minus V. Zero. This should be equal to zero. We write down if the surface is at rest, for no slipping, V should be equal to R omega. For no slipping, V should be equal to R omega if the surface is at rest. Doesn't matter what kind of surface it is. Inclined surface, horizontal surface, vertical surface, doesn't matter. V will be equal to R omega. If the surface is at rest, what about with respect to acceleration? Suppose acceleration is A and angular acceleration is alpha. You just differentiate it. If A is equal to R alpha. So these are the conditions for it to not to slip like constraint relations which have nothing to do with physics actually. It is mathematical constraint. Suppose the Vcm and omega. There is a condition between Vcm and omega. First time they are constrained to have a relation. Similarly with acceleration A is equal to R alpha. Now what if the surface in contact is not at rest? Suppose this is kept on this which is moving with velocity V1 and acceleration is A1. Can you tell me what is the relation now? Write it down. Why shouldn't you get in school like suppose the teacher is a punishment? Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. it should be embarrassing level one is essence level three is become a murga and you will see a murga soon murga you know how to do i am just here show i will help you so i mean come talk thank you thank you that is why i would like you to think like that from here to there so we never used to tell otherwise at home also what else i still remember one day our lab assistant was not present he was on leave i told you so he appointed probably that point in time the social science teacher who was my favorite teacher was was available that point in time so he was like please take care of these kids in a lab only we are sitting and this guy was doing his work you know kids like when i was kid and you at your age not at your age it was when i was in class in my so if you just tell us what to do i mean suppose you are making noise i will tell you keep quiet so we will make noise so he came and he didn't beat me that day very hard and i still remember that okay but then he has gone i found them in facebook sometime oh no logical a minus r alpha r scenario wooden scale punishment i said got hit anyway who is calling you no no this is for only you send yourself i just had you don't have any story but listen to my dad got hit my mom got hit he got hit so he has something to share they share it with everyone there is something to bear this is even if you make noise yes somehow girls never got such punishment say that as well she used to pick the but adam was nice no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no What is the equation? A, this should be equal to what? A2, what about it? A minus alpha that way. This should be equal to A1, okay. Fine. I will tell you one thing, the point of contact is instantaneously at rest, related to the instantaneously at rest with respect to the surface. Point of contact is at rest instantaneously, okay. Most friction is acting on it. Can friction do any work? Every instant by the friction work done by the friction in pure rolling is zero. Work done by the friction force in the pure rolling is zero. This we are going to use in the entire kinematic. This is the kinematics of rigid body. Any doubts in the kinematics? So please solve 50 to 60 questions on kinematics, then you will feel at ease with this topic. Got it? How many? 50 to 60. That's like minimum. And how much time will it take 50 questions? How much time? Max to max 3 hours. Max to max 3 hours. How many questions you will make? Now it is 75, right? In order to attempt the question, I am not saying you should take it right. In order to attempt the question, 50 questions will hardly take 2 hours or 3 hours. Okay? So don't count 50 questions as if I am telling you 50 hours. Okay? Now itself. All right? I felt sick again. Be careful. Be careful. All right. Pay attention. I called the K-1 test. And next K-1 test you must prepare now onwards. Let me tell you, whatever it is, something is said here. What do you say? What happened? How? Oh, so you are surprised that we got so much or so less. Listen here. Listen, listen, listen. In fact, improving school marks is easier or improving the computer exams. So if suppose one UT, let's say one UT, you don't prepare a 697 percent. Okay? It's easy. It's very easy. Are you getting it? If you don't score well, most of you have not scored so well in K-1 test. And ultimately this is what will make you go to some good college. Okay? There are scores in these kind of exams. So do a favor to your test only until the next K-1 test. Okay? And give your best shot. Don't just get involved in the work related to some monotonous things like completing the lab records and all those things. Do it in the school itself. All those lab records complete in the school. Find time, some days meet you there. Complete it. You can't imagine the kind of work they have done till now. Starting from the day one of class 11. And they are topping the school as well on top of it. They are doing every work. They still wait time. Okay? They are everything and everywhere but towards a simple goal. Okay? You can improve your school marks easily but not the computer level exams. Anyway, so this is rotational kinematics and this is done. Now itself. Just now. Before this, we were doing introduction of system of particles and now we are doing budget body dynamics. The first two chapters of the class 11, text book one, book one. You have a unison measurement now. After that, first two chapters. Kinematics. Kinematics, right? Motion went inside the rotational kinematics. The concept for a rigid body. Together they combine, put in this rotation dynamics. What is mass? Mass represented, mass represented inertia. How much amount of force you give to create what amount of acceleration? Okay? Larger mass acceleration. So that is the acceleration. For example, this rigid body is just moving like us rotating while moving. Okay? If it starts rotating then you need to take into an also. Yes or no? Not just what causes a translation. By the way, what causes a translation? Force. Force causes a translation. Inertia against rotation is moment of which one is easier? Center is easier. So it is easy to rotate. It means that inertia against a rotation is changing depending on from where I am rotating the object. Yes or no? We need to study the inertia against the rotation separately because it can be very tricky. Whereas we never study mass separately because mass is very easy, right? Easy to quantify, right? But we need to quantify inertia against a rotation properly because at a rotation is there. And the name of that inertia is called moment of inertia. Please write down moment of inertia. This is the sum of mi ri squared. The mass is, if there are multiple point masses of a system, m2 r2 squared plus m3 r3 squared. Like that. Are you getting it? What is our own object? So this is the definition. It is a scalar quantity. Just like mass, it is also inertia. It is a scalar quantity. You have to worry about its direction. But yes, moment of which axis you are finding it. Even though it is not which axis you are finding the moment of inertia. Dedicate a small numerical of this. 2, 3, 1 kg, 2 kg, 4 kg. This is axis where this of a square is 2 meters. That was 4 into 1 square plus 3 into 1 square. 2 r2. 2 r2. So this is 2 square. So basically it is. So it is more diffs above I1. What is the sense of rotation? How it will rotate with I1? It will rotate like this. Can be other than this distribution of mass. Sharing of mass. Tell me an example of continuous distribution of mass. Till now we are dealing with discrete masses. What is the discrete mass? It is not a point mass. So how do you find moment of inertia of this continuous mass distribution? That is what we are going to do now. You remember center of mass of continuous mass distribution? Remember that distributed each. And let us say its distance from the axis is r2. So dm r2. Summation I have to do. So this summation becomes integral. For a continuous mass.


One last fly the barn mission. Fly the barn means fly every aircraft you have. We have four on the line here, and we flew them one giant lap around Norfolk, and it was an opportunity for us to just strut our stuff one last time. A lot of Marines were coming out of their workstations. That was motivating for us as the pilots, and I think it was motivating for them as well to see all four aircraft up at one time. We're transitioning to the V-22. We'll get rid of two aircraft in June. We'll be sending them to Florida, Orlando, to the Department of State, and they'll use those likely in Afghanistan in the future. Two aircraft in August will be broken down here on the line and terminated. We'll send them to the boneyard. We'll send them to museums. These are the last aircraft that I'll fly the Marine Corps. It's been a long, memorable career, and yeah, it's pretty bittersweet. It's a fun aircraft to fly. It's reliable. It's dependable. It's versatile, and I'm going to miss it, I really am, because of its versatility. It's been a lot of fun to fly.


I agree. Mr. Lewis, we've heard a lot said today about how we don't have enough info to act and cruise center and access in rural areas and communities of color. Do we have enough information to get started on this? Congressman, absolutely we do. We have years over a decade of efforts by policymakers and industry saying they were going to close the digital divide. And in that amount of time, millions and billions of dollars have been given to industry and they still pick and choose who gets infrastructure built out to them. We have to put some rules, both build out requirements and rules around anti-breadlining into effect to make sure that when you serve a service area, whether it's an urban community, a rural community, a tribal community, that you serve everyone in that area. Thank you so much.


Hello everybody, Andrea here with Dental L Mobile Hygiene. So I have been in the dental profession for about 50 years. I have now owned my own mobile dental hygiene practice for about two years and it still amazes me how many patients I see have cold sensitive teeth and they've been living with that all of their life or for as long as they can remember. But let me tell you, you do not have to live with cold sensitive teeth. The cure, if you will, can be very easy but it can also take a few steps to get there. So it's not as simple as saying, this is why you have cold sensitive teeth. Here's a toothpaste, there you go. It's so much more than that. So what I do when I see my patients is I first look at their enamel. Do they have thin enamel? So I'm going to show you guys a couple differences. So I'm just gonna pause the video for one second and I'm going to show you what I mean by thin enamel. Okay guys, so I'm just sharing my screen. I just simply typed in thin tooth enamel from Google and this is what came up.  Darn, so can you guys see this? So I'm just gonna not click on it but I'm gonna show you guys. So if your teeth look anything like this one here, see how it's a little bit thin. You kind of notice the off yellow marks towards the gingival margin. That is a clear sign of thin enamel. If you wanna go so far as to look at this one, the teeth almost look see-through. That's thin enamel.  Notice how it gets yellower, almost brown towards the top parts of the teeth, typically called long in the tooth. So if your teeth look longer, this is a clear sign of gingival recession, okay? So cold sensitive teeth can be from many things. From thin enamel, from when the teeth develop, they were just thin or from gingival recession, which is where you could have brushed too hard as a child, a teenager, and the gums that normally cover the teeth are now exposed. So your tooth is exposed, where the second layer is exposed, causing cold sensitivity. It could also be from clenching or grinding. So all of those different things lead to different treatments, but they can be treated. But your dental professional needs to take the time to discover what's really causing you that cold sensitivity. So what I do first is I look inside the mouth and look at all of the different aspects that could be causing your cold sensitivity. It might even be all of them. Your teeth might have come in thin, so thin enamel. You could also have gingival recession. You might also clench and grind something that I forgot to mention too, more than thin enamel is if you have acidic saliva. So if you're one of those people where we always tell you, you have cavities at every visit, you might have acidic saliva. That's also causing you cold sensitivity. So after I look inside the mouth, what I do is I have something called a desensitizer. So a desensitizer comes in like a little bottle that can only be applied by a dental professional. So you can't get it in the store. I refer to it as, it's like a car wax for your car. I don't know a lot about cars, but I like to think that's a good analogy. Where this desensitizer goes over those sensitive areas of your teeth, it's a thin, clear coating. You don't see it, you don't know it's there, but it's there to protect the outside elements.  So I apply the desensitizer where it's needed. It does take about 20 seconds per tooth, which isn't a long time, but it can take time if it's every single tooth. And this should be applied by your dental professional at every appointment or at even every six months. And it works amazingly.  And that's not normal. Another thing that I might suggest to you is to start using a different mouthwash and toothpaste. Because if you think about it, your teeth are inside the mouth, right? So what can you be doing to constantly be coating and protecting those teeth against cold sensitivity? So I don't like to mention companies of brands I don't like, but I will say there are brands out there that you've probably all seen commercials for to protect against cold sensitivity. They do work for 80% of the population, but if your teeth are still cold sensitive after using those products, you might need something else recommended by a dental professional. So we have products that we can only give you. So you can't buy in store, but we have products that might have a stronger concentration of sodium fluoride. There's also xylitol, but there's also different types of desensitizers that can really help such as hydroxyapatite, which is always hard for me to say, but there's many different things that we can apply for you. There's potassium nitrates. So all of these toothpaste do different things. The ones on the market, like I said, they work well, but you might need something additional. So like just as an example, I have different products here that I can suggest two people to try to really help with their cold sensitivity. Like this one has a higher concentration of fluoride and xylitol, and this one has xylitol and fluoride as well. Just using over the counter products just sometimes isn't enough. You need something bigger and better and you would be using this every day twice a day. So your teeth are constantly getting that protection. So I look at all of that to truly determine what your teeth need to prevent that cold sensitivity. And one product or solution might not work for everybody or I might suggest a toothpaste to you and that has solved all of your problems where you don't even need the mouthwash, you don't even need the desensitizer or you might need all of them. So get your dental professional to look. You do not need to suffer with cold sensitivity. It doesn't need to happen. In kind of a more extreme case, I have some patients where they're so cold sensitive that their gums have receded quite a bit where those areas is where, and it's pretty obvious that is causing the cold sensitivity. In some cases, I can apply a thin desensitizer over top but then plus a filling over top of that to really cover up those areas. So there's no way anything's getting in there to affect the nerve to make you more cold sensitive. So that can work too. Your restorative dental hygienist can apply that for you or a dentist in the dental office. I'm a mobile restorative dental hygienist so I can do that for you in your own home if that's what's needed. But that's kind of a last resort. It's not bad, but who wants a filling on top of their tooth if they don't need it? We prefer to do the least invasive as possible. Not saying that a filling's invasive, but it's just something extra that you have to pay for that you might not need. Why not spend less money getting a toothpaste and mouthwash first, see if that works. If not, then spend a little more money to put a filling over top to cover the whole thing. So there's many different options you don't have to suffer with cold sensitive teeth. So thank you guys for watching. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll talk to you guys in the next one.


Welcome to the Endless Knot. A while back we asked for some feedback and we got some great suggestions. Some of the suggestions we had were for videos on particular people, on historical events or time periods, the effect of colonialism on English or global English in general, also for videos on literary topics or on idioms or phrases. And we had the great suggestion that we could have you guys vote on one of the words that I should cover. These were all great suggestions and we're going to try and get to all of them. There'll be a person-centered video this fall, and I'll ask you guys to vote on the word for the first video to come out in the new year. So I have four options for you guys to consider, weird, atlas, amazon, and average. You can vote by leaving a comment, or tweet me, or leave a comment on the Facebook page. All the links are in the description below. We really appreciate hearing from you, and I'd really like to know what you guys think would be most interesting. Thank you everyone for the great response, and I really appreciate it. For the rest of the summer, there'll be a few shorter videos, and the full videos will start again in the fall. And last, I have some news, or actually... We have some news. Hi, and Avin, I've been helping Mark make these videos, and now we're launching a podcast, or actually we have launched a podcast. It's called, surprise, surprise, the endless not podcast. It's based on the videos we've been making, but going a little further to explore other connections in lives, in our own lives, and other people's lives in the world around us. Some of the episodes are focused around the videos, so we are playing the audios from them, and having discussions around them, between me and Mark. Some of them are going to be just us chatting, maybe about things in the news, linguistic, or language, or history, ideas that we've been hearing about. But a lot of them will also be interviews with interesting people. People who have connections in their lives in interesting ways, so academics, people in the arts, people who work in technology. We'll be asking them to share with us stories about when connections have been important to them, how those unexpected connections between unusual things have affected their lives, their careers, things that are important to them. There'll be a couple this summer, but they'll start regularly coming out in the fall. So we hope you'll check that out. Again, it's called the Endless Knot Podcast, and the first episode is available already through iTunes or on our website at alliterative.net. There'll be a couple of more episodes out this summer, and then it'll be coming out regularly starting in the fall. If there's any other ways you'd like to access your podcasts, do let us know in the comments, and we'll look into making the podcast available there as well. So again, thank you for your interest, and have a great summer. We'll see you again soon.


Everybody forced here up in a box of 2022 Leaf Best of Sport for Roman B. Thanks Roman and good luck Right on top here. It's a 2017 Patrick Mahomes night school PSA 10 is night school for Chronicles from Panini football night school Patrick Mahomes PSA 10 on the rookie card there Never seen that card before. It's pretty cool, man. There you go. Roman. Thanks again, and we will get this right out to you


must be about 3.30. I've had a triple shot coffee and it's party time today because it's my sister's birthday. I've just spent like a couple hours with her and my dad. I haven't actually got her anything today. What we're going to do is it's Friday today.


We're joined here by Jacob Jax, magician extraordinaire, resident of Las Vegas now. That's kind of a stretch. So Jacob, how you doing? I'm great man. How are you? I'm doing well. So now which Tam is this for you? This is my fourth Tam. Tam 7 to 10? 7, 8, 9, 10, yeah. Okay. Matt.  Yes, I make my living that way. So that's what that means right now. And where could people catch your show? Which one of these hotels? Bali's Hotel and Casino, but I'm a street performer. So I'm actually out front of Bali's gathering crowds doing my show for tips. So there's a lot of magicians. Obviously Tam is, you know, started by James Randy, magician. What is in your mind magic and skepticism? Where is the correlation? What do you think? Well for me magic, learning magic helped me become a skeptic because you learn that it's very easy to fake very convincingly things that look like miracles. So when you see that it's like maybe the guys that are doing miracles aren't doing miracles. So that's what Randy figured out. And he figured out that magicians are some of the best people, at least he as a magician is one of the best people to find when tricks are happening, not necessarily scientists. So that's, no. So what do you look forward to at Tam? Let me ask you this. What do you enjoy most about Tam so far? The talks and all the stuff are fantastic and I love going to him. But as my fourth Tam, the best part is seeing 1600 skeptics all together. I've never been around so many like-minded, wonderful people. So it's really a joy. Very cool. Jacob, thank you very much for joining us here. Oh, I almost forgot. You got a website, don't you? Yes. What is your website? JacobJax.net. That's J-A-C-O-B-J-A-X.net. And my thumb also comes off. Check them out on the web. Thanks Jacob. Cool. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks.


Hello there. My name is Marvin Soto. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California, currently living in Tri-Cities. Before I came to church, I had an addiction of marijuana for nine years. I had chronic pain within my knees and realized that when I would smoke weed, my pain would go away, but when my high would leave, the pain would come back. To one day, I got invited to witness Harry the Wise Man, and through witnessing that man heal many people that had chronic pains just as myself. People within wheelchairs rise up through the faith of God and being strong believers, I one day was locked up in my room. I prayed to God. I asked him to heal me. As being the healer of all nations, I made a promise to him and told him, if you heal me, my father, I will devote my life to you. And as time passed by, I come to realize I had no more chronic pain within my knees. And as I had to keep my word and my promise towards our father, I started attending church. And as I attended church, I devoted my life and received salvation through Christ. I made a decision that it's about time I get baptized and wash my sins in the old man of me away and be raised as a new man through Jesus Christ. Marvin, do you believe in Jesus Christ as God's Son and your personal Lord and Savior? Yes. Do you promise to follow him with good and clear conscience for the rest of your life? Yes. Based on your faith, confession, and your commitment will baptize your name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. Because you've spoken, it is finished at the cross. Now I'm living your freedom. Jesus, you have said to me...


I'm often asked by parents when is it a good time to start teaching your child how to save and my response to that is as soon as the child is able to wrap their hands around a dollar bill or a quarter. I encourage parents to give their child an allowance, an amount of their choice, the parent's choice, and I encourage parents to use three different piggy banks. The first piggy bank would be to teach the child how to save and that would be 10 to 20 percent of the allowance would go into that savings piggy bank. The second piggy bank would be for church, charity or community and then the third piggy bank is for the child to save and put money aside for spending in a rainy day.


Autolight and its 96,000 dealers present. Suspense. Tonight, Autolight brings you Christmas for Carol, a suspense play starring Mr. Dennis Day. We have... Hello, Santa. Well, it's Wilcox. Now, what are you doing in that costume, Harlow? Going to a Christmas party, have. Oh, what's in the sack?  In this box, I've got smoother performance, you see? Ignition-engineered Autolight spark plugs. Sure, and when you replace worn-out spark plugs with these new Bantam beauties, your car will perform smoother than Santa skidding down a slippery chimney. And what's in this box, Harlow? Fast starts, Hap. These are ignition-engineered Autolight spark plugs, too. You bet, and they're unmatched for quick starts, because they're designed by the same Autolight engineers who designed the coil distributor and all the other important parts of the complete ignition system for many leading makes of our finest cars. That's why ignition-engineered Autolight spark plugs work as a team with your car's ignition system. And that's why they're world-famous for quality and dependability. And I suppose you're giving gas savings in the third box, eh, Harlow? You guessed it, Hap. So, friends, have your Autolight spark plug dealer replace worn-out spark plugs with ignition-engineered Autolight spark plugs. Choose either the standard or resistor type. And remember, you're always right with Autolight. And now with Christmas for Carol and the performance of Dennis Day. Autolight hopes once again to keep you in... Suspense! It was dark and silent. The window in the house glinted a little from the Christmas tree lights. Rocky didn't move. He just stood there in the alley, but I wanted a run. Fast, get away and put it behind me. Just a second. We got the money, Rocky. What are we hanging around for?  I said we wait for the old couple to get back. What for? Why take chances now? We got some money. How do we know it's all of it? Maybe they split it and put it in two places. We'll wait here and watch for them when they come in. They'll tip it. It was 8,000. That's what he withdrew. You asked for this, kid. Now, do as you're told. We wait. I couldn't help being scared. This was my first job, my first and last. I just wanted that money. I wanted it fast and short and I wanted to run away from it and forget it. A one-shot. That's why I got hold of Rocky Perea. Lucky. I had to be lucky just this once. For Carol, not for me. It was for Carol. Nothing else I cared about, see? Didn't seem possible now that three days ago I hadn't known Rocky. Hadn't needed him. What is it, doctor? How about the baby? Your wife must remain in bed. Serious? No, not serious, but she's got to stay flat on her back. A nurse. You should have a nurse with her all the time. Oh, but it's two months away, doctor. It's just a question of keeping her relaxed and quiet. Not letting her do any work around the house, lift things, or even walk. Okay. Okay, doctor. And she'll be all right? There's one other thing. She was quite worried when I told her about the nurse. I got the feeling she's well afraid to have the baby. Afraid? Not for herself. I can't put my finger on it, but... It's having a detrimental effect on a condition, isn't it? I know what it is, doctor. Money. Oh, I see. Well, it might not be easy finding a nurse only four days till Christmas. I'll get one, doctor. Thanks. I'll call you in a seat. Yeah. Thanks again, doctor. Sweetheart, it'll be all right. I'm going to get the nurse to take care of you. I'll be able to get up and around the day or two. Not if you want that, son. The doc said everything will be all right if you take it easy, and you're going to take it easy. But a nurse... Look, I've got to get back to the bank. I'm only on my lunch hour, sweetheart. I'll make a few calls from there, and tonight we'll pick out the nurse. How... how much do they charge? What's the difference? How much, Paul? It's a lot of money, I know. Fifty-sixty a week. We'll make out all right. Now there's nothing to worry about. Oh, Paul. This was going to be a happy Christmas now. Yeah. A happy Christmas in this dump. It's funny, Paul. Fifty dollars a week for a nurse for another two months. It's funny. You make forty-eight fifty at the bank. You'll have to pay the nurse more money than you earn. Yeah. More money than I earn.  Feeling, seeing, handling money, taking in money, paying it out. When I went back to work, I was seeing it for the first time with something more than an attached feeling. Thinking, I need this money. I need this money. I need this money. How I need this money for Carol and the baby. It was almost three o'clock when Eddie the bookie came in. Hi, Paul. Good day yesterday. And big action in a few days. Sanity opens. Yeah. People like to throw their money away. They throw it? I catch it. Eddie, could I see you later? You ready to make a deal? I want to talk to you. What time you through? Five o'clock. Meet you outside at five o'clock. Eddie Garth, bookie. He quit school in the seventh grade. I held out and went through college. And all these years, he's tried to get me to go in with him. To run his office, do the book work. He was waiting for me when I finished work. I went to a coffee shop and sat down. And all around us, the loudspeakers reminding me what a happy Christmas it was. How's Carol, Paul? Not so good, Eddie. That's what I want to talk to you about. No more loans, Paul. You need money? Come with me. Don't you ever give up? What's so good at the bank? 25 bucks for a Christmas bonus? Look, Eddie. Come in with me now. With Santa need opening. I can work the outside, get new accounts. Eddie. And I'll give you 10% of those accounts, Paul. But I won't lend you the money. I'd be a sucker to lend it to you. I'll give it to you if you come in, but I won't lend you anymore. Okay, Eddie. Forget it. I'll get it some other way. I don't get it. What's wrong with my deal? Look, Eddie, how many times have you been routed by the vice squad? Plenty. And every time they book you and they fingerprint you and take your picture? So what? They never have anything on me? It's on your record, Eddie, as long as you live. Ah. Sure, I need money. Maybe I'm getting close to the time when I'm not too choosy about the way I get it. But it won't be your way. What? What are you talking about? If I ever break the law, it's going to be with the right guy and it's going to be the right job. You're dreaming, Paul. You'll still be in that cage 10 years from now. I'd hit and run. One job would have enough out of it to make it worthwhile. That's the way to be, Eddie, a one-shot. There is no such thing, Paul. You do something like that, you're stuck in it. And you're worse off than if you came with me. Think about it, Paul. Go home then and fix dinner for Carol, all the time thinking of the money and Carol and the baby and debts. Don't worry eating at me and thinking about what I'd said to Eddie. Then the next morning old man Forbes made a withdrawal. The first he'd ever made. Hi, son. What? Oh, hello, Mr. Forbes.  Seems like we're good friends after all these years. Miss me? Take a look at the slip. That's a lot of money. 12 years hard work. That's what that money means. But you're taking it all out? And I quit my job today. Quit your job? Ada and me, we've been waiting a long time for this Christmas. We're moving out of the city. Oh? Now we've had our eye on a little farm. Now we can buy it. You've got the papers drawn up. Then you're leaving right away? About a week. But Ada don't know yet. I'm going to surprise her. Kind of a Christmas present. But it's not safe to keep so much cash on you, especially... I've got a perfect place to hide it, son. No one would think to look there. I try to figure I've worked too hard and too long to lose it now. No, no, son, it wouldn't happen. Wouldn't seem right somehow. It stayed with me and it grew. Like a wheel spinning, gaining momentum. This could be the right job. $8,000 enough for that single shot. It stayed with me. All the time growing. Growing. Aren't you on me, Paul? If you change your mind. No. I called you, Eddie, because I... I need your help. What kind of help? Well, you can arrange for me to talk to someone. Maybe. Who is it? Rocky Perea. Are you kidding? You picked yourself the right guy, all right. The cops don't even know what he looks like. They never mugged him or printed him? Yes, Eddie, that's right.  A million people want to talk to Rocky Perea, including the cops. No. No, Paul, I can't touch it. You can, Eddie, if you want it to be bad enough. Please, Eddie. All right. Let's see what I can do. Maybe I do know someone. And, Eddie, it's got to be someone. It's got to be soon. You know you'll be taking a chance. It better be good. It is, Eddie. Good enough to take the chance for her. That was two days ago. And this morning, Eddie came through. A certain friend, Rocky's only outside contact, told him to keep an eye on a house on Hoover Street. Eddie gave me all the dope. What Rocky looked like, how he'd act, what to expect. And earlier this evening, I told Carol I was going out for a while that I'd borrow the money from Eddie and we wouldn't have to worry about paying it back for a while. That's what I told her. That wasn't the answer. The answer was at the house on Hoover with Rocky Perea. I waited there, hidden in the dark corner behind the incinerator. I kept thinking, making excuses. It wasn't up to me anymore. It wasn't any other choice. I needed money desperately. I needed help to get the money. I waited more than an hour. And then I heard footsteps come up the alley. He stopped before the open patch of light. Just like Eddie told me, he was careful. Very careful, making sure no one was staking him. I took a deep breath and hitched my way forward. He was going to cut across the open for the back door. I remember thinking, now do it for Carol, for the rotten, miserable Christmas. Do it now! Rocky! He froze for a split second and almost faster than I could see, he ducked into a shadow and spun around. The streetlight didn't touch him. He glinted on something metallic in his hand. And even from where I was standing, I could see he had a gun pointed at me. The Light is bringing you Mr. Dennis Day in Christmas for Carol. Tonight's production in Radio's Outstanding Theatre of Thrill's Suspends. Say, Hap, are you going to the in-laws for Christmas? Yes, Harlow. That's rough. No, they're okay. Oh, I mean rough trip, unless you've replaced worn-out spark plugs with ignition engineered auto light spark plugs. They give your car a sensationally smooth performance. I've heard of them, Harlow. Well, then you must know that they're designed by the same auto light engineers who design complete ignition systems used as original factory equipment on many leading makes of our finest cars. That's why ignition engineered auto light spark plugs work perfectly with your car's complete ignition system. Your folks really treat us right. You mean the auto light spark plug dealers, eh, Hap? Well, they'll replace worn-out spark plugs with ignition engineered auto light spark plugs for smoother performance, quick starts, gas savings. After we visit them, we always find... Find what, Hap? That you're always right with auto light, Harlow. And now auto light brings back to our Hollywood soundstage Mr. Dennis Day in Elliott Lewis' production of Christmas for Carol, a tale well calculated to keep you in suspense. Rocky, don't shoot! It was a good thing I'd said it. His gun was aiming front and center. He crouched there looking at me, his eyes flattened hard, then his voice deep and tight and deadly. Who are you? I'm not a cop, Rocky. Come close so I can see you better. Sure, Rocky. I just want to talk to you. You've calmed me, Rocky. You've been talking to anyone? I've been watching you. I know you're Rocky Perea. You've been watching me. You've been watching me. What for? You're wanted, Rocky, and you need money. Who are you? Where'd you come from? That doesn't matter, Rocky. This is a business deal. I figured it out very carefully. You need money? Well, so do I, and I got a way to get it. Just like that, eh? And, Rocky, I'm not staying. This is a one-shot deal. A one-shot? There's no such thing. That's the way it's gotta be. We do this job together and we're through. We never see each other again.  Not if it comes off easy. I'll quit, Rocky. What's in this for me? Half. $4,000. Huh.   You got guts, too. Tell me you got a family. There's no one to stop me. I have a job that doesn't pay enough. This'll raise my salary. You want this one hall and it's back to your job, eh? Yeah. Is it a deal? What's the job? I have a car. I'll tell you on the way. If you go for it, okay. If not, we forget the whole thing. Okay, kid. I'll listen to it. Let's go driving. I told him what I'd planned and why I needed him. He agreed to come with me. We drove to the Forbes's house. It was a small and old house. Just big enough for the two of them. I drove down to the corner and parked and we started back. Lucky there's no one on the street. Let's go up the alley. Yeah, Rocky. There's the back door. Look, no lights. They're not home. That makes it a cinch. Okay, go on second. Sure, baby. Rocky, I'll have to break a window. Yeah. You want me to hold your hand? I'll wrap my jacket around my fist. That'll keep the noise down. I'll let you write me a book. Okay, okay. I'm going. I was lucky. The side of the house was hidden from the street by a big tree. And it was like to see with from the Christmas tree in the living room. I wrapped the jacket around my knuckles and one of the short, sharp jab broke through the window. It sounded like a cannon. The street being so quiet before I was scared it would rouse the whole neighborhood. But like I said, I was lucky. I scrambled up the sill and dropped into the living room. I was pretty clumsy. I pulled out drawers, looked behind pictures, under cushions. I went in the kitchen and poked around the cabinets. I looked in the cookie jar and I found a rolled up wad of bills. It was money all right, but only $40. The old lady's secret treasure. I put it back and went into the living room again. Looking around, nervous, I stumbled on the Christmas tree and knocked it over. And then I remembered what the old man had said. A Christmas present for his wife. And I knew it was somewhere on that tree. There were Christmas stockings and favors and little red boots in and around the tinsel and the lighted bulbs. And I found the $8,000 hidden deep in one of the stockings. Got it, Rocky. Let me see it. It's there, Rocky. It's all there. Yeah, made grand. I guess I'll hold it. Come on, let's go. Take it easy. I'm gonna stick around for a while. Stick around? What for? Well, we got some money. How do we know what's all of it? Maybe they split it and put it in two places. We'll wait here and watch when they come in. They'll tip it. It was $8,000. That's what he withdrew. You asked for this, kid. Now do as you're told. We'll wait. I couldn't help being scared. My first job. My first and last. A one-shot. I wanted to get away fast, run and put it behind me. But Rocky just stood there like he didn't have a worry in the world. Listen, kid. They're ringing for us. They're wishing us a merry Christmas. Wait. They're unlocking the door. You know, Harvey, the Christmas services were so beautiful. Sure were. Is she here in particular? Harvey, look, the tree. Someone's been in here, a burglar. Burglar? My cookie jar, I've got my house money hidden there. The old lady ran to the kitchen, but Forbes knew where to look, and he knew it was gone. Rocky was grinning his face lit up like floodlights. Let's go, Rocky. We've seen enough. No, no, hold on a minute. It's all here. Ada, it's gone. All the money. All what money? Eight thousand dollars. I took it all out of the bank. Ada, I quit my job. It was going to be a surprise. No. Every penny we had in the world. Oh, Harvey. All that money. No, no, no. It'll be all right, Ada. Twelve years of work so we could have something. I can keep on working, Ada. I'll do it all over again. Well, you can't work anymore than that. Oh, what's a person to believe? You work so hard, and we do without things for twelve long years. And for what? In one minute, some good-for-nothing hoodlum takes it all away from us. I looked at Rocky standing there next to me, his face split by that grin. It was funny to him. Something to laugh about, to gloat over. That's why he'd stayed. Suddenly, I knew I couldn't go through with it. Me, the guy who needed the money so bad. The guy with the bright one-shot idea. Quite a show, ain't kid. Come on, let's go. He moved off a few steps, but I just stood there, knowing what I was going to do. Come on, I said, let's go. Knowing what I was going to do. No. No, Rocky. We're not going. I said we're not going, and neither is the money. What's that? No, Rocky. I've got a gun, too. What's got into you? I'm going to give that money back, Rocky. I can't stomach this. Give it back. You're crazy. No, Rocky. I just didn't see deep enough. Oh, people like this. This was your idea. I'm responsible for it. I know, Rocky, but I can make it right. Suppose I don't give you the money.  Okay, kid. You got the gun. He gave me the money, all the hate showing in his eyes. I turned and started for the house. He gave me my back for a target, but he didn't use it. I knocked on the door. As who? Paul, from the bank. I just had a fight with a guy, Mr. Forbes. Saw him jump from your window. I chased after him. Our window? You saw him? Yes, ma'am. I was walking past. I kind of figured he'd just finished robbing you. But did you catch him? Well, I couldn't hold onto him. He broke away, but not before I got this. Why, Harvey, the money? Yes. Paul, bless you. Oh, forget it. I'm only sorry I couldn't hold him. You say you fought with this burglar? Yes. He broke away before... We want to thank you, Paul. Forget it. I'll be going now. Wait, Paul, we want to give you a reward. Oh, no. No, I don't want a reward. I'll have to be going. I stopped there on the porch for a minute, afraid to go back to Rocky. Suddenly terribly afraid of what he'd do to me. The old couple was still talking, loud, like all people do. Yes, it all happened so fast. I'd always wonder about that boy. What made him bring the money back? He's honest, Ada. I know him from the bank. Oh, kiddo sticks, Harvey. He didn't fight with anyone. What do you mean, Ada? Put his clothes by the whole story, he told us. Your young friend took the money in the first place. Why, uh... Ada, I'll leave you all right. Of course I'm right. Now, what on earth made him change his mind like that? It's Christmas, Ada. Merry Christmas. She'd known. The old lady had known all along. And it didn't make any difference. She'd even offered to give me a reward. Suddenly I felt something strange, like being clean inside. Like being able to see something that wasn't there before. The tightness, the fear eased a little. Let's go, kid. The car. Rocky. You did what you wanted. You just forgot that half of that money was mine. Now move. Get it moving. What was it you said? You need me, Rocky. You're high. Rocky, I made a mistake.  You need money. I got away. I was wrong. Maybe the next job, you won't get soft in the head. There's not going to be a next one, Rocky. I'm through. Through? You think I spent Christmas Eve with you because I like you? I'm out for grand. I'm sorry, Rocky, but there's not going to be a next time.  Stop the car. All right. But I'll never see a different, Rocky. I found out tonight, if it's not these old people, then it's someone else taking it just as hard. Are you sure? Are you sure it's not Christmas doing this? I'm sure. It's not for me, Rocky. You know, I'm kind of glad it turned out this way. You're what? You're throwing. Going back to your job. Yeah, Rocky, sure. Good. And I figured it right. What? I didn't think you'd go through with it. Say, wait a minute. Yeah? You're not Rocky Perea. I said you were a smart kid. But the way you acted, so careful, sneaking in the alley and... Say, who are you? Weissman's the name. Police Lieutenant Richard Weissman, gangster squad.  But where's Rocky? We picked him up this afternoon, kid. He had a couple of guys working with him, and I thought maybe you would want him. Now I know different. Cop. I don't expect I'll run into you again, kid. So, take care of yourself. Merry Christmas. Lucky. All the breaks. But I was no better off than this morning. It was still money, two months paying the nurse. It was still the worry for Carol. We've been expecting you. Congratulations. Doctor, what's the matter? Why? Nothing's wrong. Quite the contrary.  Baby? Carol? No, she's perfectly all right. So is your daughter. Carol. Oh, Carol, darling. Are you all right? Hello, sweetheart. I'm fine. Carol is... We won't have to borrow the money now, Paul. It's turned out for the best after all. Oh, darling. You always will, my dear. We have so much. You and I. We have each other. Now, we've got a daughter. A fine, healthy little girl. The rest will come, Paul. Let's live the day we have.  Tell her we're very, very happy she's in the family. And wish her a merry Christmas. No, it's safe. Was to certain poor shepherds In fields as they in fields where... She's smiling. A Spence, presented by Autolite. Tonight's star, Mr. Dennis Day.

Welcome back. The International Press Center has kicked against attempts by the government to criminalize journalism in the country, urging media professionals to fight before it is too late, and media houses end up becoming an extension of the Ministry of Information. Executive Director of the Center, Landry Arogu-Dade, noted that the two major bills before the National Assembly, which court-creeple press freedom in Nigeria, are the National Broadcasting Commission Amendment Bill and the Nigerian Press Council Act Amendment Bill. And also, the Social Economic Rights and Accountability Project, CERAP, has sold the federal government and the Ministry of Information and Culture, Lai Mohamed, over the directive to all broadcast stations in the country to suspend the use of Twitter. We have joining us, Kola Waleolua, Deputy Director of CERAP. We are expecting David Houdain, a journalist, to join us also in the course of the show. Many things. Once again, Kola Waleolua, Dari. Let's start off with what we read all over the press just yesterday. That's your organization, and CERAP is serene, the Minister of Information, Lai Mohamed, the federal government, that's even the president, over this issue of alleged gagging of the press through the suspension of a Twitter on their platforms. Just run us through it so we can understand you better. Okay, thank you very much. To provide context, the suit that was filed last week at the Federal Court is different from the one filed before now at the Air Force Court. The suit filed at the Air Force Court challenges the ban itself, and that was filed before the judicial staff, of course, called on their strike. We had also filed an application for provisional measures, which would qualify for interim order to stop the government from going ahead with the ban, or, excuse me, not harassing anyone from using Twitter. But the suit that was filed last week is different. It speaks to the attempt of the National Broadcasting Commission to compare media and broadcast houses in Nigeria to deactivate your Twitter account, and that is why we have approached the Federal High Court to set aside that potentially on lawful direction from the NBC. It is important to note that the directive is not backed by any law, and it's clearly on lawful on the part of the NBC, even though it proposes to act under the NBC Court. All right, let's talk about what happened at the National Assembly just last week. The Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, appeared before the House of Representatives, where they are planning to amend them. There are five different those, specifically, two of them, Heat Home, that's the Press Council Act, and, of course, the NBC Amendment Act. Let's talk about this for one minute, and let's know how you react, because a whole lot of reactions have thrilled that particular development, because people are seeing it as another way of censoring journalists in Nigeria, and specifically, the Minister is asking that them social media and, of course, its regulation be added to the NBC. What we have seen that this government has done or tried to do is to generate clampdown on political expression. That aspect, there's an aspect of that clampdown, of course, that affects the media as a key part of the Nigerian state, but the totality of the actions type of freedom of expression, both among citizens and from media houses. And the antecedent of this government's fix-set to that fact, the NBC has, time and again, whipped up the NBC Court to stop media houses from doing their job, and that is on the aspect of the media. And so we've seen also the attempt at having some kind of legislation to make this a free speech, not as a free social media. All these attacks we must understand is against federal expression, but they are component facts to each of these actions. We've seen the social media bill, we've seen the 8th speech bill, and we've seen the NGO bill, all of which have failed at the public hearing stage, at the national assembly. And so it is not surprising that coming on the use of the purported Twitter ban, we've seen this government do this. And it's also important to stress that this is not a media reaction. This is a well-organized plan on the part of this administration to prevent whatever you perceive as critical views of government. Of course, this is ill-informed. This is not an interest of democracy or in the interest of good governance in itself. So coming on the use of the Twitter ban, we've seen government attempt to amend the press council bill, which have been thrown out with us before now, and opportune to amend the NBC Act to give it powers to regulate the social media. But that is not, that these moves are not in the interest of democracy. Democracy, of course, implies the people participate, not only at election, but in the governance that follows after election. And one of the ways they can do this, of course, you have an open line to not only to talk to those who are in government, but also to express their views, whether positive or negative, about various aspects of governance. And social media being a very key tool to do that. We see no basis for this regulation of social media, and ultimately it's going to be anti-democratic. And so what we respect from the National Assembly at this point is to throw out those bills as they have done in the past, and not let them sail through. All right. I just want to read out something that just happened at the National Assembly just today, because the Senate also reacted officially, and they said, okay, let me just read them verbatim here. The Senate has officially reacted to the controversy trillion, the move to amend the National Broadcasting Commission Act, and the Press Council Act. Senator, representing Osho Central and Chairman, Senate Committee on Media and Publicity Bashirajibullah said, the amendment of the two bills was not meant to creep or press freedom. Are the public hearing and to be able to amend the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission Act, organized House committees on information, effects, and values, ministers of information and culture, Mohammed, Azzaq's the lawmakers to include internet broadcasting under the control of the NBC. But speaking today in Abuja, the National Assembly said that claim that it was meant to check excesses of those he called reckless and irresponsible media establishment. Do you agree with that? Specifically, he said it was meant to check the excesses of those he called reckless and irresponsible media establishment. Of course, that cannot be true. And if it is to check what is called reckless, why do we need to criminalize this speech? And if we're expressing the opinions, would that mean there are no laws that take you of whatever is deemed reckless, either by a media practitioner or by any citizen? The last time I checked, Mengera has laws, a case, libel, and the permission. They are civil wrongs, and they could be tortured and prosecuted in such cases. We've seen the way the government has used these type of acts, seemingly innocent, against citizens who have expressed their views. Even going as far as using the terrorism act, which of course was not designed to undo such offenses, charging people before the courts for terrorism, nearly for expressing their views, is that in this the government or agencies you want to give power to regulate the price, that's what STWM, given that very important task in section 22 of the Constitution, not only to hold government to account, but as a tool to disseminate information freely between the citizens and the government. If this statement is attributed to the National Assembly, of course, it cannot be true. We only see this as a means of fighting against law of expression, stopping any form of dissenting view, and silencing any kind of perceived critical views that a government cannot find accessible. All right, granted, your organization, CERAP, has actually sued the federal government, even the president, in all of these issues. But then, what would you really advise some journalists to do? Because the federal government comes out and says that journalists should not, or media houses should actually take down their Twitter account in as much as there's no law to that effect. What can they do? Do they just have to follow hook, line, and sinker, and then just abide or they should maybe oppose and wait for some messiah, maybe like the CERAP and other organizations are doing right now? Yeah, we cannot afford to wait for any lie. It can be true, it can either be late in common or not common at all. We apparently, the architects of our own destiny, and in this case, any unlawful act of the government cannot stand. What CERAP has done is to approach the courts to give a formal decision on this point, because you can call it the formality of announcement, but we know as it stands that there is no law that permits the national progressive commission to do what it has to do, given directing to media houses to stop using Twitter to that media account. And the first thing is that that's the private business of these media houses, whether they choose to use Twitter or any kind of social media platform in accordance with the work that they do. That is, from that directive, it's patently unlawful and we are very hopeful that the court will make the necessary directive. As it stands, there is no law that gives the entity power to do that. Okay, let me put it in here. Let me put it in here colorally. You just said there is no law that empowers the federal government to go on with such a directive. Knowing all of this, judging by the fact that we have a minister of justice, we have a minister of justice, an attorney general of the federation, who would come out and say that Nigerians should not even use other alternatives to go on the Twitter platform. Where is this really taking us or keeping us as a country? Are we going back to the medieval ages, or where exactly are we headed? I was about to make that one that we've seen also an instance from the pronouncements of the Attorney General of the Federation where he was credited to have said that any media fan to be using Twitter, by other means, possibly by use of the VPN, will be prosecuted. But from the popular outflow of the people, none of what we've seen senior lawyers come out to destroy the justice when it didn't set up. We've seen the Attorney General, he can't do that statement assailingly, he did not say such a thing. And I'm very, very sure that this will go the same way of the NBC directive. NBC has moved forward, particularly when the so-called Twitter ban is being challenged in various parts, not only by Sarah, but by other groups in court. The least one would expect government to do is to maintain status quo by not taking law into its own hands. But what do you expect? We've seen the same government, the same administration, surveying law for other parts time and again. We've seen the same government and shown others given by the court for them to do specific acts and treat them with disdain. So what can we expect? But ultimately, we are very hopeful that a rule of law will prevail and the judiciary will come to the rescue of the citizens of this country and make decisions that that in line with the prohibitions of our law. As it is, the executive cannot create offences by mere pronouncing the law is really clear in this regard. And the one need not be a lawyer to identify the puns made in Section 36 of the Constitution. No one, no one can be punished from the offences that is not provided for by any written law. And there is no law to lie if that's presently. At any rate, the directive of the NBC that propels from the, on the NBC court stands very uneffective and inconsistent with the provisions of inspections at the now of the Constitution, which guarantees the freedom of expression to every individual, including those of media outlets. And the law is saying that that in the type of constitutional democracy that we practice in India, that even if any other law is inconsistent or conflicts with the provisions of the Constitution or what's that law to the extent of its inconsistency the body. And that means that the NBC court and even the NBC acts under which the NBC acting cannot stand against the provisions of Section 22 of the Constitution and Section 39 of the Constitution that's guaranteeing again the freedom of expression. All right, thank you so much. I'll call our lawyer, Oluwa Dari, deputy director of CERAP. Thanks for sharing your thought. And of course, I'm enlightening Nigerians on what they need to know concerning this issue of alleged gagging of the Nigerian media space. We do appreciate your time. Thank you. All right, we'll take a short break. And when we return, I'll be giving you my take, but right back, stay with us. Now the call for the holistic restructuring of Nigeria has reached a crescendo reverberating across the national space where some have obstinately turned deaf ears to it. Nigeria can no longer be ruled the way it is being against the ethos of equity and justice was still under a democratic dispensation. But then for the media censorship, the present administration appears to be exploring all avenues to regulate the media, particularly online media. On June 4, the Minister of Information and Culture announced a ban of Twitter a few days after the microblogging site removed a tweet by President Buhari for breaching its rose. In my opinion, the Twitter suspension and the moves to censor social media would stifle freedom of expression and shrink the Nigerian civic space. My name is Justin. Many thanks for being a part of the show. Bye for now.

He's never killed anyone, he's still banged up now. And this is going on. I've got loads of mates who are still in there now. But my Cody friend, he's never coming home, right? And he's got these other kids, outrageous murders like kids and things like that. And they treat people more like me, who's after a few quits. A lot worse than what they do to a child if they want to bang us up when they lock me up, you know?  Do you know what I mean? But again, the system is flawed. There's a fault in it that's set up to fail. What was Charlie Bronson like then? How's he still in good contact? It was a funny story. We was in Franklin's and there's only like 10 cockney eyes. He's turned up there. Can you know what?  And we went, what? But really? So they don't do things like that, mate. And then the geezer turns up, I'm standing with a fella and he walks up and sees the graphs. Well, I knew him from, I knew him, they were strapping bombs to security guards, right? I knew all about it because people would come from my area. Most armed robbers were sort of brought up in the area because you know where they are. Like, if you watch a film called Town, Boston was the main thing for armed robbers. Canningtown in Stratford was a breeding ground for people like me, you know? And so anyway, it calls him a grass. So I swear I've done marks, I'll sweep the geese's legs, kick the geese in the head, knock him out on the floor.  And I went, yeah, all the screws come out, we're in Franklin prison. And then we're trying to take me off the yard, right? So they come walking over, I went, we're coming in. So me and Bronson all about took the cockney eyes with fucks. We have to have it off all the screws. So we had a big punch out of the screws, they've run, they've run, they've run. All the screws have run, started locking the cells in the blocks and that. So they go, right, let's take the jow over. But never, never, never happened in Franklin before.  So I was going to come, let's just say, lock the cells. Anyway, it all gets calmed down, then it goes off again. And then Bronson's involved with it again anyways. So they put me down the block. So they said, right, if you don't come out of the block, don't get him out of the block, we're going to smash your jow up, alright? So anyway, so they give in. So this is the funny story. They said, right, we want to hear what you want to say about Cockney A's or Cockney double A's. He said, we want to hear what you said. So there's going to be three governors, bring three inmates and we'll sit down and stop the beatings and all that's what we wanted, right? So he goes into the governor's office. There's a governor sitting there, a governor sitting there.  So we walked to him, there's another category A. So he said, right, what do you want? All of a sudden the door goes bang, the door flicks open. And I like joking. He's standing, bollock-naking, big pair of boots on. He had a flissin tube off at the lab. And he went to the governor's, there, there, there. And I like joking. Then three governors sat there like that. They sound like Tom and Jerry. They went, he's asleep through the things like that. And that was Charlie Bronson.  Yeah, because he only got jailed for a robbery at the time. Yeah. Now he's over 30 years. Yeah, and he's still in there. I mean, there's loads of people in there like him. Do you think he'll ever get out? I hope he does. He's a nice bloke. I hope he does. There's loads of people like Paul Glenn. He should be released. He should be there. Who's he? He's my Cody friend. He never killed that person. He should be released. He was there. He's going to get some bourbon.  So he didn't do. Charlie Bronson was there, Charlie. You know, I went all the way through Charlie. What was Charlie like? Charlie is good as gold. You know, I'm in his books. And a funny thing, I meant to be going to see Charlie right with the screen right, because there's different stuff happening here. And you know, he mentioned me in all, you know, his books and then books from them days when we was coming through that stuff. So I went all the way through with Charlie. I like Charlie. He's like that old school. He's very like the old man in the circus. But Charlie, Charlie, Charlie is misunderstood in a lot of ways. I think we all was, you know, then really. Because he did a robbery. Now he's still in. He's just, he's, um, yeah. Because I know I had Vic Darko on his way. I want to know, you know, Vic and Vicks, really partly with Charlie. He's sent a message, wanting me to send a message to Charlie for, because they try to get him out for his release. He should be released. Charlie on the show for the podcast, because I know he's never been. I think he writes a lot of letters, I think. He does. He's a great artist, James. And people who spent time with him, speak highly of him. But again, the people who are involved with him were all high security fucking.  So you've, for people who speak out and say he's a good guy, people won't understand it. They won't understand that.  You're getting moved up and down stairs and sleeping in concrete. You ever live with Charlie Bronson? Yeah, I was with Charlie Bronson up in Franklin's prison. I was next door to him in a segregation unit. And I was next door to him in, um, sorry, I was with him in Winston Green. How was he? Prison. Charlie Bronson, I think, is an absolutely adorable person. He was always a gentleman to me. He was always extremely kind. Unfortunately, he doesn't have the best press in the world. But he was always a gentleman to me and a gentleman and he was, I'll say, he was, to me, I thought he was bit of a lovable rogue. Yeah, because I think he's... Bit of a rough diamond, you know? Yeah, he spent over 40 years. He's never done a monitor. He's the constant brand. I think it's the press that maybe keep him in. But I think he's tried to change that now. I think he's got a good team behind him, because I was speaking to Vic Dart and he says they're trying to get the team behind him. We are. They're not trying to portray that. I mean, it's because all the books and films, it's all violence. They're trying to change that to hopefully get him out now. But of course, Charlie, Charlie's big enough to take this, but, um, some of his artwork could be considered homophobic. And I think this is why he received his last sentence, because an art teacher called Charlie out on that. Charlie went to the art teacher and said, what do you think of my art?  And now he's got the sentences got now. I don't think Charlie Bronson is homophobic. I think he's provocative. And, um, and of course, I wish him well. And, um, Charlie, if you've got a mobile phone and you see this, send me a visit and order, and I will come up and see any way you are in this country. Who is the maddest person you were in prison with? Oh, Charlie Bronson. Yeah, we're in with Charlie. I love Charlie. A lot of people don't like him, but I found him very, very funny. I'm still in touch with him to a certain extent today, but he was kind of the reason I like Charlie Bronson back in the early days. Not so much now. I mean, I still like him. He's a nice guy. I wouldn't like him living next door to me. That's for sure. But, and I've had him living next door to me in a block in Highdown. But, um, he was kind of like where in the 80s where the screws had complete control of the prison system before strange ways. Jails like ones were from Brixton. The screws were brutal.  And to see Charlie Bronson strolling for a prison with eight screws running after him and him just marching along, like, with him opening the doors and trying to get out of his way before, because that's what he was doing, just a pair of boots and a prison raincoat. He was kind of our guy, you know? I mean, he was our... I wouldn't say hero, but he was our tool against the prison system. You know, he was actually knocking screws up in the air and knocking them out. And when we'd done it, we was getting half-killed. You know what I mean? So he was kind of a bit of a hero. How much could... How, through as that, that he could feet? He could scrap? Charlie? He could have a good route. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't say with Superman. You know, and what I found in Joe is a lot of people who you think might be sort of invulnerable or they've got a reputation of being so hard, you can't even... They're not really there. I mean, everybody's human. Everybody's got their own weaknesses, yeah.


The field keeps on dwindling and the high school section volleyball playoffs keep on rolling on. We kick our coverage off tonight in section 8AA with Rozo taking on DGF. First set it's Riley Berkeley with the block at the net. The Rams were rolling early on later on.  But DGF would make a late run and be just too much. Here's Faith Anderson who absolutely launches this one down for the kill to take set one. DGF wins it in four sets, excuse me, taking down Rozo three to one.
