For the next 30 minutes in cooperation with the Los Angeles Police Department, you will travel step-by-step on the side of the law through an actual case transcribed from official police files. From beginning to end, from crime to punishment, Dragnet is the story of your police force in action. It was Sunday, September 8th. It was warm in Los Angeles. We were working the day, watch out a burglary detail. My partner's Frank Smith, the boss's chief of detectives, Dad Brown. My name's Friday. We're on our way out to the scene, and it was 10.18 a.m. when we got to 6247 28th Street, the jewelry store. I'll be right there. Yes, sir. It's not a very big place. There's probably more room behind that partition there. I'm coming. You're the police? Yes, sir, that's right. This is my partner Frank Smith. My name's Friday. I'm glad to meet you. How you doing, sir? My name's Ham. Ray Ham. This is my store. Yes, sir. Sorry I kept you waiting. I was back in the kitchen making some tea. I was a little nervous, you know. Thought it might help. Mm-hmm. You gentlemen care for some? No, sir. No, thanks, sir. When did you discover the theft? Well, I got back to the store about 40 minutes ago. Saw what had happened, and I called the police right away. Is everything like you found it? Yes, sir. These cases open? That's right. I haven't touched anything in here. Didn't want a chance messing anything up. Yes, sir. Didn't leave very much, huh? A couple of watch bands is about all. Really cleaned out the place. Now, about the watches, what kind were they? Mostly wrist models. A couple of pocket size. Uh-huh. All different brands, but I just got a bunch of long jeans in. Took every one of them. Yes, sir. Clean me out. Can you tell us how they got into the store? Yes. I'll show you how they chopped a hole right through the wall. All right, sir. Right through the wall. In the back. Came right through. You can see there. Goes right into the storeroom of the barbershop next door. Mm-hmm. Uh... Sure made a mess of the place. Plaster all over the floor. Yes, sir. Pretty much ruined the wall, too. Yeah. Wanted to make sure they'd have enough room. Mm-hmm. See, the hole must be about to be the cross jump. You can see there. Right into the storeroom. Yes, sir. Better check over there, huh? Oh, I forgot to tell you. The back door to the barbershop is open. Before you officers arrived, I checked out in the alley and I saw it wide open. I guess that's how they got in. Who owns the barbershop, Mr. Hemp? Ed Justin. Had the place over 15 years. You know where he lives? Yes. He isn't home, though. As soon as I saw that hole, I tried to call him. You can give us his address and phone number, can you? Yes. We'll want to talk to him. All right. I've got one of his cars up front. All right, sir. We'll check next door. Look at that hole. Must be a good three feet across, wouldn't you say? Yes, sir. Here. Let me get that door for you. Look at that. What's that? Size of that door. Heavy, double lock. Burglar alarm system out in front. On the skylight up there. Doesn't stop him. Yes, sir. Well, we'll check next door.  Yeah. I wonder why the thief didn't close the door when he finished. Probably nothing left to steal. Yeah. Take a look at the door here. It doesn't look like it was forced. Uh-uh. Well, Justin might have left it unlocked. He made a mess in here, too. Yeah. Looks like they had a head start. Yeah. Huh? The place must use a lot of hair oil. Yeah. For me, that's liquid soap there. Oh, yeah. It doesn't look like there's any tools around. No. How you doing? Take a look. Want me to find something? Come here. What? In the dust here, can you see? Yeah. Impressions? Yeah. Looks like a stocking foot, huh? Yeah.  That's the way I'd call it. You notice right here? Right. The middle of the print? The stains? Yeah, looks like it could be blood. Possibly he might have cut his foot, wouldn't he? Yeah. Well, let's call a crime lab. Have him send the crew out to go over both places. Yeah. Joe? Yeah. Take a look at the skylight up there. Mm-hmm. It's broken. You better check the roof, huh? All right. It sure looks like hair, Tony. Yeah, it's green. Yeah. There's the drain pipe there. Might have used that to get up. We'll have the crew check it. Let's go back in. Yeah. Mr. Hemp? Yes? Find out anything? Well, we're not sure yet, sir. I wonder if you could tell us. Is there some way to get to the roof of the building here? Oh, yes, yes. Come on, I'll show you. There. There. You see? Up in the corner. Trap door. Mm-hmm. Hinged. Swings right up. Been a while since I've used it. You have something we can use to get up there? No, I've got a ladder. I'll get it. All right, sir. Want me to give you a hand with that? Oh, I can get it. All right. Here, you better let me help you with that. I'll swing my end over and you can walk it right up under the trap door. All right. Careful. All right. How's that? That's fine. I'll get it. I want to steady the ladder, Frank. Yeah. Can you get it? No, this bolt's stuck just a minute. It's probably rusty. I told you I didn't use it very often. Yes, sir. Okay. That's got it. Good. Okay, now, hang on. What do you want? I'll boost myself up. I got it. Okay. All right. You want to come up, Frank? Yeah. Let me give you a hand. Yeah. Wait until I get my foot on the ledge. All right. Come on. You've got to lose some weight. Let's take a look at that skyline, huh? Yeah. Well, I'm glad we didn't hit this tire rough at noon. It was still funny warm. You can see all the hams placed through this one. Good spot to case it from, isn't it? Yeah. Let's check that broken skyline. Yeah. Take a look. Yeah. More smears. There's not much doubt about these. Looks like blood all right, doesn't it? Yeah. Maybe they did case the stories from here. Uh-huh. Could have cut his foot on a piece of glass, couldn't he? Figures. Still not much to go on. Yeah. They'll take a pretty big cut to make these smears. Well, that'll be something in our favor. How do you mean? It will heal overnight. The crime lab crew arrived and started their investigation. Photographs were taken of the interiors of both stores and samples of the plaster and lath materials were held as evidence. Layton Fingerprints went over both the jewelry store and the barber's shop. Frank and I checked with the people in the neighborhood, but none of them could recall seeing any automobiles or strangers loitering in the vicinity. At 7.20 p.m., the barber had Justin returned. We questioned him. He said he didn't recall locking the back door to the shop, and he said it was more than possible that he did leave it open. We got a complete list of the stolen merchandise from Ray Hemp along with the case and movement numbers of the watches. These were distributed to pawn shops throughout the city. Frank and I went back to the city hall and had the stats office start a run on the M.O. used in the burger. 9.47 p.m., Lieutenant Lee Jones from the crime lab called to say that they'd finished their examination of the physical evidence. He told us that the stains we'd found were blood, and that he'd have the grouping tests finished for us in the morning. He went on to say that the suspect should have particles of plaster dust and other debris in his clothing. Also, if we were able to find the socks that the thief had worn, the pattern of the material would identify them. At 10.15 p.m., Frank and I finished the log and we checked out of the office. The next morning, we started to run down the list that the stats office had furnished us. It took two full days to question all of the men named. At the end of that time, we had what we'd started with, nothing. We talked to informants, none of them could tell us anything. Wednesday, 11.40 a.m., Frank and I checked into the office. I guess I better check the book, huh? Yeah. What do you got? A call from Luca Reli over at Narcotics. Yeah. Says they picked up a guy this morning. Luke talked to him and figured maybe we'd want to see him. You say why? No, he didn't spell it out. He saw our teletype on the jewelry store thing. Yeah. It's about some watches. We put in a call to Sergeant Roxy Luca Reli at Narcotics Division. Five minutes later, the suspect was brought to our office. He was identified as Frederick Gabriel Garth. He had a record listing several arrests for burglary in Narcotics. He'd served one term at the county jail on the Narcotics Charge. He was brought into the interrogation room where Frank and I questioned him. What are you giving me trouble for? I'm clean. They found nothing on me. Is that so? Sure. The marks are old, been a long time since I had a fixer. Uh-huh. Well, what do you want from me? Information. On what?  Sure. I'm a native son. And you must have a lot of friends. A couple? Any of them selling wrist watches? What do you mean? Well, you don't need a drawing for this now. Any of your friends selling watches cheap? No. You sure about that? What are you trying to build? The only way it came to us, you can stare us to a cheap watch. Well, you've got it all wrong. I don't even own a watch. If I could buy one cheap, I'd have one. That right. Well, sure. I always wanted a good one. Mm-hmm. You know anybody who can lead us to a good buy? Well, what's in it for me? What do you got now? Nothing. Well, you're going to leave the same way. No reason for me to give you a hand, then, is there? Then put it down that we're going to have you in here again. The way you act now, go on the books. How about it, Garth? Who's going to know? You, Smith, and me. For real? Won't do us any good to spread it around town, will it? Okay, I met a guy last night. He showed me a watch he bought for $5. What did it look like? Gold. Pretty good watch. A fellow friend of yours? I know him, that's all. You got a name? Yeah, Victor Gordon. Where'd you see him? Hot Dog Stand. But where's that? Out on Western. Western's along the street. Corner of St. Andrews. What does Gordon do for a living? I don't know. I just see him around the Hot Dog Stand once in a while. You live around there? Yeah, I got a room near 39th and Western. I don't know the number. It's a big green place. Got those kind of plastic shingles on the roof. Red ones. You show it to us? Yeah, a friend of mine has a car. We drove him home a couple of times. You got a good look at the watch last night? Yeah. What kind was it? Longy. You're pretty sure about that, aren't you? Sure. I looked at it pretty good. He took it off his wrist. Asked me if I thought it was worth $5. I told him it was. At least I'd pay that for it for the real beauty. Can you give us the description of this Gordon, pal? Yeah. We want you to show us where he lives. I haven't seen him in this far. No reason to get off now. You got any more on him? You're going to find out anyway. Yeah. This Gordon? Uh-huh. He's an ex-convict. We checked the name and description of Victor Gordon through R&I. We found that he'd served one term for armed robbery in an eastern penitentiary and was not on parole at the time. The check of the ex-convict registration gave us his present address. We also found that he was employed at the Belden Aircraft Corporation in San Fernando. We took Fred Garth out to the address on Western Avenue to verify it for us. He pointed out the house and asked that we drop him off near a streetcar line. After that, Frank and I returned to the rooming house and we went up to the third floor. We knocked on the door to Gordon's room and he asked us in. I know what you're climbing on me for. A while of questions. You ask him to get answers, don't you? We'd like a few. Look, you tell me what all this is about and maybe it'll shake up my memory. All right. The way we heard it, you were wearing a new watch last night. Well, you got it wrong. Is that so? Yeah, I haven't got a watch. We got it different. Look here. You had one last night. Well, you're crazy. I haven't got a watch. We heard different. Somebody lied to you. I showed you. I'm not wearing one. You don't mind if we look around the place. Go ahead. You won't find anything. All right. I'll check the closet, Joe. You're wasting your time. You're not going to find anything. Well, and you haven't got anything to worry about, have you? Go ahead and mess up my room. Tear it apart. You're not going to find anything. Why don't you just simmer down there? I just don't want to have to put all that stuff back. Joe. Yeah. What do you got? Take a look. I found one of the shoes there. 38 cold. Yeah. How about it? You satisfied now? This gun yours, Gordon? Never saw it before. Found it in your closet? It isn't mine. Won't hold. You want to tell us about it? All right. So you found a gun. Is something wrong? You've got a short memory, haven't you? Maybe I got it wrong. I thought you guys were looking for a watch. There's a law that says an ex-con can't have a gun. You want to know that? How about it, Gordon? All right. Get your coat. Take me downtown? You called it? What charge? We'll let you know when we write it up. Oh, yeah, sure. Well, it is. I don't know what you're after, but I had no piece of it. You want to get the watch? It's in the medicine cabinet in the bathroom. All right.  I'll get it. I bought it. It paid five bucks. We'll get to that. How about it, Joe? Yeah. You got a pen, man? Yeah. Give it here all over. All right. You want to give me the number? I'll check it against the list. Yeah. All right. Give it. Huh. It's kind of hard to see. One, six, seven, five, eight. I think the next one's a nine. Let me see that. Yeah, that's a nine. Sit on the list. Wait a minute. Look, I didn't steal it. I was wrong about the gun, but I didn't steal the watch. Look, Jess said still. How about it? No, it's not here. Wait a minute. Try the other side. Mm-hmm. Gordon, you're in trouble. Yeah, I know. The gun. No, that's only half of this watch. Yeah. It's listed as stolen. You are listening to Dragnet, the authentic story of your police force in action. There are more than 60 million cigarette smokers in America who smoke many brands. In choosing your cigarette, be sure to remember this. You will like Chesterfield best because only Chesterfield has the right combination of the world's best tobaccos. Tobaccos that are highest in quality, low in nicotine, best for you. You and I smoke for relaxation, for comfort, for satisfaction. And in the whole wide world, no cigarette satisfies like a Chesterfield. You smoke with the greatest possible pleasure when your cigarette is Chesterfield, the right combination of the world's best tobaccos. Yes, these six words, highest in quality, low in nicotine, mean Chesterfield is best for you. Buy them king size. Get a carton of Chesterfield today. And regular, Chesterfield king size, both at the same price in most places. The suspect was taken downtown in question. He continued to deny any part in the thefts. We put in a call to the place where he worked and we verified that he'd been there on the night of the burglary. After a half hour of questioning, Victor Gordon told us about the man he'd bought the watch from. He said he didn't know his full name, that he knew him only as Kermit. He went on to say that his girlfriend had been with him when he bought the watch and could verify the story. We contacted the girl, Celia Kirk, and we talked to her. She told us the same story we'd gotten from Gordon. She volunteered the information that Kermit lived in the 3,800 block on Gramercy Place. She also told us that his girlfriend lived in the 2,900 block on 9th Avenue. We got a complete description of the man and we checked it through R&I. We came up with a package for a Kermit J. Wayne. When the mug shop was shown to Gordon and Celia Kirk, we got a positive identification. Wayne's arrest record went back to the time he was 15. He was listed as an expert safeburger and had used a tunneling MO on several occasions. Gordon was booked in at the main jail in a charge of violation of the dangerous weapons control law of 1923, Section 2. 5.40 p.m., Frank and I left the office and drove out to the address on Gramercy Place. Wayne lived on the 2nd floor rear. He wasn't there. In the company of the landlord, we went through his room. Pretty dirty. You want to check the dresser or I'll get the trunk. Yeah. Hey, Joe, look. I guess everybody's got this calendar, huh? Yeah, it's real popular. Good. Hey, look at this. Did you turn something?  You've got to put them someplace. Well, I have gloves for this job. How are you doing with the trunk? There's nothing much in it. More of those calendars. Wayne must be a fine arts patron. Dirty shirts in this one. I don't know. Maybe the guy hasn't heard of laundries. What do you think? Well, the trunk checks out. How do you like that? I should have known.  Well, he's neat, anyhow. I'll check the closet. A lot of hangers, not many clothes. Maybe the guy's broke, but that's no reason to be so dirty. How about that bundle there? I haven't looked at it yet. It might be his clean shirts. No, pair of pants. Figures. They're dirty, too. Something in the pocket here. A pair of socks. That makes you wrong. If he was so neat, they'd be with the others. Maybe he had a reason for keeping him here. Why? Take a look. He had a reason. Blood on this one. We checked out the rest of Wayne's room, but we turned up nothing to further tie him in with a burglary. We got a description of his car from the landlord. And before we left, we made arrangements for a stakeout to be set up on his room. We took the pair of pants and the blood stained socks down to the crime lab for examination. 8 20 p.m. Frank and I drove over to 9th Street to try to find Kermit Wayne's girlfriend. We checked the 2,900 block, and we found a car that matched the description of the one owned by the suspect. We checked the white slip and found the car was registered to Wayne. Frank pulled two of the leads to the spark plugs, and we went back to our car to wait for Wayne to show up. The night dragged on. 4 29 a.m. It's been almost eight hours, huh? Yeah. Something had happened, don't you? Put in with you. Joe? Group? Did you ever notice around the city all the clocks that are stopped? No, I can't say that I have. You know, on business places, storefronts, walls, all over? Well, what brought that on? Oh, just thinking a little while ago. You know, some smart fellow, get a lot of work fixing them. All the clocks don't run. They're only right two times a day. What? The clocks that are broke, twice a day, they're right. How'd you like to be right only twice a day? Some fellas would be all right. Like who? Guys that bet on the horses. Oh, yeah, probably wouldn't ever thought of that. Wouldn't be so good if you worked in a chicken hatchery, though. Where? Chicken hatchery. What do you mean? Well, those guys up there, they look at baby chicks their day or so old, and they tell what they're going to be. You know, men or women? What? Well, they're going to be roosters or hens. Oh, yeah. Pretty good money in it. Well, that's a new one on me. Yeah, but you've got to be right. None of this twice a day stuff.  And he finds out he got just the opposite 98 roosters and two hens. How do you think you'd feel? Disappointed? You bet he would. That guy'd be looking for a new job, too. Well, maybe he could fix those clocks. Sure would be a lot of money in it for somebody, huh? Across the street? Yeah, I see him. Talking to somebody inside there? I can't see him too good. It's about the right height, though. Yeah, he's coming this way now. Notice the walk. Check's out all the way. Yeah, it's him. All right, wait till he gets in the car. Let's go. Right. Hey, hey, fella. You Kermit Wayne? Hey, what is this? Police officers. Are you Kermit Wayne? Yeah, why? Get out of the car. Come on. Keep those hands where we can see him. Why do you want to talk to me? Come on, get out. Just put it down the way you walk, huh? This don't make sense. It does, does. What do you mean? You limp. The suspect was taken down at Georgia Street receiving hospital. An examination showed that he had a bad cut on his right foot. We contacted the office, and another team of men were sent out to the apartment of Wayne's girlfriend to go over the place. Frank and I took the suspect back to the office, 8.25 AM. Don't guess we can expect much from Wayne's girlfriend if she's anything like him. No. He's a clam, that's for sure. We're going to need something strong to open him up. Righty? Yeah, Mac. What'd you do out there? Maybe we got something for you. Yeah. Where is the guy? The next office. Here. You taking a trip, Mac? Uh-uh. Suitcases for you. Watches, rings. Wayne's girlfriend didn't know it, but she was in the jewelry business. Look at this. All on jeans. How about serial numbers? Haven't checked them yet. Since we found this, we came right over. All right. We'll run them. Do you have any trouble? No, really. She was pretty cooperative. Didn't see what was going on. We told her Wayne was in custody, gave her a big story. Tells easier than it was. How'd you locate the stuff? When we told her about Wayne, she remembered the suitcase he wanted her to keep for him. He told her it was some war souvenirs. Didn't like to leave them in his room. Real surprised when she saw the contents. Then she got mad. Said he'd always promised to buy her a good watch she never had. She can start looking for a new Santa Claus, huh? Yeah. Wayne won't be shopping for some time. We checked the serial numbers on the watches, and we found that they were the ones taken in the burglary of the jewelry store. All of the other merchandise matched the description that we'd gotten from Ray Hemp. 918 AM. All right, you want to tell us how you cut your foot? I'm giving you nothing. You did it on the skylight over the barbershop, didn't you? You tell me, I don't know. Maybe I cut at the beach. We don't think so. I want to see a lawyer. I'll talk to him, but I've got nothing for you guys. All right, we got something here we want you to see, Wayne. How about it, Wayne? Look familiar?  I've seen watches before. Who hasn't? These are a little different. Look at the suitcase. Does that ring any bells? Don't mean nothing to me. You guys are trying to trap me. I know how it won't work this time. I've learned all about you, cops. A long time ago. I get it. Burgary Friday. Yeah, right. Both of them, huh? Oh, good. OK, we'll check with you. Want to give us a story now, Wayne? I'll talk to a lawyer. That phone call there, it just called the third strike on you, mister. All right, I'll give it to you straight. When you went into that jewelry store, you cut your foot. You left blood smears all over the place. You've got to stay away from comics. We've got pictures of the smears. Our crime lab matched them up with a pair of socks that we found in your room. The pants we found are loaded with debris that you picked up when you went through that wall. And we can prove it came from the same place. Sound like we're bluffing? You want to tell us about it now?  You just got the brakes. That's all just the brakes. Yeah, that's all. Yeah, your cops ain't smart. I learned it real young. Once in a while, the brakes fall on your side. Something else you should have learned real young. You wouldn't be worrying about the brakes now. What's that? The eighth commandment. The story you've just heard is true. The names were changed to protect the innocent. On January 16, trial was held in Department 98's Superior Court of the State of California in and for the county of Los Angeles. In a moment, the results of that trial. Now, here is our star, Jack Webb. Thank you, George Fenerman. You know, almost 100 years ago, Charles Kingsley wrote this about tobacco. He said, tobacco is a lone man's companion. It's like a bachelor's friend, a chili man's fire. Well, I like to think these words describe what Chesterfield means to millions of smokers today. The right combination of the world's best tobaccos, the best cigarette ever made. Chesterfield, highest in quality, low in nicotine. Best for you. Kermit J. Wayne was tried and convicted of burglary in the first degree. Victor Cavell Gordon was found guilty of violation of the Dangerous Weapons Control Act and received sentence as prescribed by law. Burglary in the first degree is punishable by imprisonment in the state penitentiary for a period of not less than five years. Violation of the Dangerous Weapons Control Act is punishable by imprisonment in the county jail for a period of not more than one year or a fine of $500 or both such fine and imprisonment.

The Caribbean community has created history selecting for the first time a woman to serve as Secretary-General, more from Tucson King English Francis. Dr. Carla Barnett, a national of Belize, has been elected to serve as the new Secretary-General of the Caribbean community from the 15th of August. Her assumption to office will coincide with the end of tenure of Ambassador Irwin LaRocque, who is completing his second tenure in office. Dr. Barnett was elected on May 11th during a special meeting of the Conference of Heads of Government of Caricum, chaired by Dr. Hon. Keith Rowley, Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago. Dr. Barnett is the first woman and the first Belizean to be selected for the post. And St. Lucia's Prime Minister, the Hon. Alan Shastney, was among the region's leaders who decided on Dr. Carla Barnett's appointment. Hon. Shastney says he is looking forward to some critical changes at the Secretariat with Dr. Barnett at the helm. The Secretariat that we have now, even its name, needs to be reviewed. Certainly the structure of the Caricum Secretariat has to be restructured. When I looked at the job description just on the Secretary General, it's very vague. And I think that we have to become a little bit more specific and a whole leadership at the Secretariat, a little bit more accountable to what our objectives are. Certainly coming out of COVID, it's very clear that deeper regional integration is necessary. We're spending way too much money on services that we can't afford. So St. Lucia with a population of 180,000, if we were to share in terms of security, let's just use security as an example, I think we should have a regional security force that is more present in our day-to-day lives than currently what we have, which is only on cases of emergency. We can deploy people to go to react to a situation rather than having now a central database of everybody's fingerprinting, whether we have the access to DNA, because it's not to say that criminals are just staying in one place or the other. And we also have to have a greater focus on white color crime as well. Honorable Shasne says integration after COVID-19 will be paramount to the development of the region. Why do we have to have OECS Civilation Authority, Barbados Civilation Authority, Jamaica Civilation Authority, Trinidad Civilation Authority, when one is advice? And even for the airlines doing business in Karakam, it makes much sense that there is a common platform that they're operating on. It just makes it much easier. But COVID has really I think made it absolutely necessary that we have a deeper dive into its integration. And the Karakam Secretary has to play a lead role in that. It can't just be about foreign affairs. I think foreign affairs is important, but I don't think it's the only thing. And certainly for us at OECS, we're now meeting on a more regular basis. We're now getting the central bank to be more integrated into policy and also in harmonization. So we hear many times that we go to the parliament and pass bills that have already been approved by the other OECS countries in the sake of harmonization. And I think this is the same thing that needs to take place at the Karakam. And I'm really hoping that Dr. Barnett, being a person who has worked there before, has left and is now coming back that we're going to start seeing these kind of changes taking place.


American Gods by Neil Gaiman is pretty well known, decently beloved, pretty well regarded, but also really polarizing. And whenever you bring up American Gods and people talk about a Gaiman, people are like, well, and start bringing in asterisks and caveats. I think the big question that comes up with American Gods most often is can you start there? If you're interested in reading Gaiman, can you start with American Gods? I think most people say no. Most people say you should not start with American Gods. I am one of those people. I say that you should not start with American Gods, even though that is where I started. I think one of the reasons people say this, this is one of the reasons I say it, is that it's nothing like what Gaiman's other books are like. It's not indicative of his style. It's not indicative of the nature of his work in general. However, American Gods is exactly like all of Gaiman's work smushed together.  If you, there is a graphic novel version of American Gods, so you can even see his abilities as a graphic novelist. So yeah, American Gods is nothing like his other works. It's like all of his other works, all at once. So I think expectations are really important when going into anything. They kind of have the capacity to make or break your experience with something. If you have the wrong expectations about something, even if it's something that you would have ultimately liked, it can be the reason you disliked it because you thought you would get a specific thing out of it and you did not, or you thought that you wouldn't get something and you did end up getting that, whatever it is. So I think expectations are a big reason why American Gods is something that people are like, hang on, don't start there. Because I think it's almost impossible to set the right expectations for someone going into American Gods. And you might end up liking it but I feel like most people picking up American Gods when they begin to read it, they're like, okay, no, this is not at all what I imagined it would be like. What do most people expect? Okay, they expect a story about America. It's in the freaking title. They expect it to be fantasy, which it is. They expect it to be pretty dark because it's gay men and I feel like most cover art and like kind of like synopses, whatever like you might have picked up kind of like biosmosis would give you the impression it's gonna be kind of dark and it's gonna have some kind of reference to mythology, to deity, to anthropomorphize gods or something. It's again, it's in the freaking title. And are those expectations wrong? No, and yes. So American Gods, I came to the conclusion is like an impressionist painting as a novel. So an impressionist painting, individual brushstrokes on it looks strange. They look unconnected, they look nonsensical. But when you step back and see them all together, you see the whole of the image that those disparate strokes are coming together to form. So in American Gods, the individual elements of this story that I just like listed for you, they feel unconnected, they feel nonsensical, they feel strange, they feel out of place. But then if you step back when you finished it, you understand the whole that those disparate parts are coming together to form. So like the format and the structure of the book kind of contributes to this. There's sort of like three-ish parts of this book. So you've got Shadows Road Trip. Shadow Moon is like the protagonist. I say that, I mean like he is, that's not disputed, but really not his story, but he is the protagonist. So you have like this road trip of his that's kind of the glue that binds together the whole of this novel. Then you have like Coming to America. Coming to America is the short stories that are included basically in this novel. So these are like weaving the tapestry of America together in the background, forming kind of like the backdrop for Shadow's story to take place upon. And then we have the gods being at war. That is ostensibly what this book is about, but neither Shadows Road Trip nor the Coming to America stories are about that. And yet both of them have to be about that because the book is about that. So the thing that the book is about cannot be seen up close. Like when reading Shadows Journey or when reading the Coming to America stories, like an impressionist painting, when you look at these individual parts of it, they are just these brush strokes. But when you step back and you take them as a whole, suddenly the story of the gods being at war is visible where it wasn't visible when you were just going through the individual bits. So if there are three parts of this book, there's like physically going through it, there's Shadows Quest and the Coming to America stories. These are like, this is what's happening in the book. That's what the book is going to be having in it. But the book itself, the whole of it is the gods being at war. And so that's why I say there's like three-ish parts of the book. So pros and cons. Well, the protagonist is an ex-con. But the book is long, it's meandering, it's pretty tonally inconsistent. It feels directionless. The protagonist lacks agency. There's a reason for that. But nonetheless, when you're reading it, it feels less compelling a lot of the times for people because the protagonist lacks agency. The pacing is strange and there are just so many disparate elements that there's have apparently nothing connecting them. But pros, the pros is good.  The stories within stories, if that's something that you like, it feels kind of like more bang for your buck, you know, that you've paid for a story and you ended up getting more stories within that story. There are lots of Easter eggs and not just the literal ones because Easter is a character. But like there's lots of nods to various things either like within the book itself, that are things that you can catch that are connections across the book, but also Easter eggs just for like mythology, for story, for America. The commentary that's present throughout the book, not like constantly, but like that can be found in different parts of the book includes conversation about history, about faith and belief, like the nature of it, about modernity, about America as like a concept, about individual purpose, like the purpose of the individual, narrative as identity, and identity as narrative, morality, nationhood, nation-state, again tied into like the idea of America, shared identity and purpose, there's the purpose of the individual but the purpose of the collective. The book is also for all its darkness, it is quite amusing. There's a lot of humor in it, Neil Gaiman. He's not as like obviously ha ha, funny as Terry Bratchett most of the time, but he does like to include a lot of dark humor. The plot is really intricate and layered. There are quite high stakes in this plot. The gods are at war. Does it get more high stakes than that? And yet the characters are oddly relatable even though it's a story about gods because they're pretty down to earth, these anthropomorphized versions of them. And overall, Shadow's Journey, it's kind of an American Odyssey if you're into that kind of thing. Like that shape of a story can be quite appealing. So given how messy American gods is, adaptation and interpretation can be quite tricky. So a lot of Gaiman's writing is very figurative and adaptation has to make a lot of figurative things literal in order to depict them. So Gaiman uses a lot of like metaphors and like kind of strange ways of describing things, symbols and abstract concepts, and you have to make those like physical and specific. They think you're kind of, it's okay because once those guys get to know you, they'll see what I see, but you're not random and you're specific. In order to depict them on screen. You know, he'll say something is like this, I don't think this is a real example, but it's something like describing something as being the absence of color. And it's like, okay, like if you write that in a book, I can like go with that, but how the FDU depict that, you know? So it's like, that's kind of the nature of his writing. He's like doing these kind of like vague, amorphous conceptual things that you're like, in a book, you can get away with that, but how do you do that on screen? American guys, as I've said, is kind of all over the place. They think you're kind of random. Kind of what I've been talking about this whole time. And movies and TV typically seek to have a fairly recognizable and standard plot structure, whether it be episodic or ongoing. American guys is both episodic and ongoing, but even the ongoing part, which would be kind of Shadow's journey, even that is extremely episodic. Lots of like side and fetch quests and seemingly to no purpose. Do you think you're kind of random? So TV is more episodic, so that should be helpful. That should be the way to go, right? American gods is also really long. So again, TV would probably be ideal. So you could get like a long mini series out of it, maybe two seasons of a mini series, but more than that, you're kind of dragging it out now. And it's already a story that a lot of people feel drags. But American gods is not a series. It's a whole painting. This whole American gods as an impressionist painting only works if you're able to kind of like hold all the pieces in your mind and see them as a whole. When you have a long ongoing series that just goes on and on and on and stretches and already meandering plot longer and longer and longer, the ability to like see the wood instead of the trees becomes more and more impossible. And it is the wood that satisfies. It is like this whole that you have to be able to see in order to like finally kind of get it. So a long book that feels complete at its conclusion versus a show that never feels complete because it just kind of like keeps going and going and blundering along, never getting to any point and never allowing you to step back and see the thing. And then of course, as always, interpretation chips away at layers of meaning. When you're adapting something, you have to decide how to interpret something in a specific way, most of the time and kind of like stick with that. And your interpretation kind of has to be consistent within the adaptation. So this erodes layers of interpretation and meaning. It's kind of like Schrodinger's interpretation. You know, like in a book, you can leave something kind of vague and everyone can bring their own meaning to it. And then when you adapt it, you kind of have to pick one of those. And now it can't be a variety of different things. It's this one thing that this director chose or the screenwriter chose or whatever. You're not random, but you're specific. And that's not to say that film can't have ambiguity. Film definitely can't have ambiguity on layers of meaning, but film is an art form in itself. And typically when film is able to do that, it's because someone has written a story for film. And so film is the medium that was in mind when the story was conceived. And ambiguity that is possible in film, which is different from ambiguity, it's possible in a book, is what was like in mind when it was conceived. Whereas a book was not conceived without in mind. And when you're adapting book to screen, you're limited by that and kind of have to make more concrete decisions. It can be done. You can still include ambiguity when adapting book to screen. I'm not saying it's impossible, but it is much, much more difficult. Can you start with American Gods? Absolutely. However, only if you go unprepared for what it is and what it is not going to be, only if you know going in that it both is and is not a good example of gay men's work in general, only if you go in interested in the project of it. And only if you go into it with a good deal of patience and as Mara from books like Woe would say going with it-ness. But I still don't recommend you start with American Gods. For one thing, there's too many ifs. I think it is easier to appreciate everything that it's doing and everything that gay men is bringing to it. If you are already familiar with all the types of things that gay men has done is interested in doing and is capable of writing. Again, I did start with American Gods and I did enjoy it and I did appreciate it. But I think rereading it after having read the majority of gay men's work, I appreciate it so much more. I'm partly cause you're rereading anything you tend to appreciate it more the second time. But I think having read a bunch of gay men's work and seeing how he's kind of brought all of these skills to the table with American Gods, you don't really appreciate that or see that as well the first time through if you've never read his work before. Because once those guys get to know you, they'll see what I see. But you're not random, but you're specific. So starting with American Gods, I think is a little bit like starting with the Avengers and then going back and watching Captain America and Thor and Iron Man. So like you can do that, you absolutely can and people have done that. But I do think most people would say that that would be doing things the wrong way around. American Gods is in so many ways a culmination, a combination of gay men's many skills and talents. And these like talents are assembled, if you will, in American Gods. And that is what's most satisfying to witness. And that is most satisfying to witness if you've seen these things in their solo forms and now you can appreciate them assembling. American Gods is also a tome. It's a big ask if you're gonna start with that book. Gay men usually writes pretty short things. Even his novels are pretty short usually. And bigger books are just a bigger commitment. So asking people to start with American Gods if they've never read gay men before.  That's I think why people who are fans of gay men are like, don't start there, it'll put you off. It's brilliant, but it'll put you off. Because again, it's just, it's a big ask. And ultimately it's very much not for everyone. And again, I don't, I mean, gay men is probably not for everyone, although I maintain that there is a gay man for everyone because he does have a quite a huge variety of skills and a variety of types of writing that he's capable of. But American Gods is definitely not for everyone. Other gay men books, there are some gay men books that I feel more generally, I could just kind of broadly recommend to people. And I feel like most people would enjoy them. American Gods is not one of those. I think it's brilliant, but it's very much not everyone's cup of tea. It's a unique and bizarre project that is executed in a unique and bizarre way. And it's what makes it so special and brilliant and also makes it have less sort of broad appeal. Because if you're choosing to do something kind of out there, that's like taking a big risk. And it means that it's a higher chance of people not liking it because it's more out there. It's a bigger risk. Usually the risky things have like the highest payoff, the highest, you know, high risk, high reward. So it makes it more brilliant than a lot of mundane things, but it means it puts a lot of people off. But if you really want to start with American Gods then bon voyage and buckle up because it's a bumpy ride. Let me know in the comments down below if you've read American Gods, if you agree or disagree with my assessment of American Gods, if you do think people should start there or if you agree that people should not start there. Whatever you want to let me know. I post videos on Saturdays. Other random houses will be on Saturdays. So like and subscribe for my Patreon if you feel so inclined and I'll see you when I see.


of what he provided for you today and no turnovers? He provided, yeah. I mean, he kept the offense and rhythm. We wanted to be aggressive, and he certainly executed the plan. And it helps. He got a lot of experience, and you could feel it. And we got into a lot of drives, and a lot of guys contributed. And I thought he did a phenomenal job today. Could you speak to your defense and the six sacks that they had as they got after Gardner and Schu today? It helps when you've got really smart players, because the opening drive, they converted the first third and long, and they got a little no huddle. And there was a DPI, and then they got the ball in there. And a couple of things tweaked in game. I thought those guys, you know, Ryan and Jerry and Jack, and the players started throwing different looks, made them hold an extra tick, give or take. And the guys played really well up front. And the same thing with situational football as a team, that's been a thing that's kind of stopped us a little bit, not handling into half. You know, when you defer, in the middle eight, everyone will look at it. And we were able to do that. We were able to get points right before. I mean, there was a minor clock issue, but we were going to run in timeout, so we had to kick off what you didn't want. But we got what we needed, and then came back and got the touchdown. And those are, that's what you want. When you talk about doubling up, double possessions, that's a 10 point swing. And that's how you can win games if you can control those situations. And everybody was in tune in all three phases. It was a good team win. And how much, how big was this win for you in the bigger playoff and division title picture? Well, we just, you know, you know how the season goes. I mean, just the focus was, we needed to get that win.  Obviously, you know, it's good to win this time of year and be in it. And, you know, we got to get ready. Obviously, tomorrow's Christmas and other things around the holiday season, but we got to get back to work and get ready for Chicago. It seemed like you guys were maybe a little bit more intent on throwing the ball early today. Was that by design or? Well, that game we've tried that too. It's just, you know, it's whether it's getting, sometimes it's that first third down, you know? It's been our intent in a couple of games that maybe I've gone that way. But certainly when we were able to convert, stayed into the drive, stayed aggressive. And, you know, we kind of mixed a match throughout the game. I thought the guys did a great job. Coaches and players, all. You've talked a lot about your offense throughout, really, the course of the year. And it seemed like maybe this was the most in flow. It seemed like the most of the year.  So the last two red zone drives, you know, say you got a little conservative, but you're making them use timeouts.  So, you know, still able to get points, but that's something that we can continue to work on. But you're right, Mike, when we needed to play, guys made them and it was different guys. I mean, the John who played on the screen, you know, third and long, you know, that keeps drives. That gets points on the board. There's so many little plays right there. You know, they were sort of bringing a lot of pressure. We make an adjustment to, hey, when this happens, we got to get outside. And it's the underrated things like Matt Collins and Cadero Hodge gets the play started. One of those, you know, unfortunately Jake, Jake went out. He could have come back in the game. We'll have more on Jake Matthews later, but he could have come back in. But those are the plays that help you win. And so there's a team effort. It'll always be a team game. And proud to get to coach those guys. And the last time you showed up with Adam Asash, you said it was like a three AM impulse decision. That's one of the most impulsive. I had to change momentum, but, you know, clean up, church myself up for the holidays. Should have a jacket like Led's got. Is there any way to compare joy versus relief right now from your standpoint to get away? Jeff, that's a great question. And sometimes in the NFL, you probably heard me say it. I know a lot of coaches that raise me.  But you know, I kind of, what's been good is when you're in these, you see the response from the team. You know, that's why you love this game. And it's kind of refreshing sometimes.  And I was, you don't want to lose that joy. So I would say it's more joy, but certainly sometimes it can feel like relief. And you don't want to lose that perspective. And I think that's been a great thing is that perspective. And there's certainly a lot of joy in that locker room and for myself personally, for those players. It's not about me. It's about the players, the staff and the organization and the fans out here today. They were phenomenal. And also you have a lot of family here today at the game. What does that mean to you to? They show up and, you know, they're huge Falcon supporters. And there's a lot of people in the crowd. I mean, it's, at least they didn't go the other way. So at least they still showed up. It'd be a bad thing if your family stops texting or calling you and then show up. Or you said you could feel Taylor's experience out there today, is that on the field, during the plays, or off the field? There's everything. There's a lot of reps that we've talked about before. It's a tough position to play. Even the little things, like the subjectivity of when you're in that situation before the half, all you're doing there is you're just trying to get time off there. I mean, you could take a shot, but nobody's going to give you that. You can throw a Hail Mary, but you wouldn't. That's probably not. Or you can get maybe 10 more yards to give or take. Nobody's going to heat you up right there. So you're just trying to end the half with the field goal. But him being aware, didn't really never realize that the clock was set. But when the vet looks up, he knew it, that's what you want. And you just play the long game.  And they went for the kneel. But just the presence of mind, just being in all those situations, understanding, hey, check downs are good here. Seeing what they're playing and coming back, like, you don't need to be greedy here. Those are just a better thing. That's not a shot at any young player, but that's what helps. Arthur, I think you only had two, three in outs today. When you talk about building momentum on offense how critical was that, especially early on getting Taylor in a rhythm? Yeah, it's any team I've been a part of. I mean, that's the key to offense. A lot of times it's that first third down. It's funny how energy and momentum work is like cliches that sounds, but it is true. You get in those drives, and it's different sometimes. You get stalled out on one, and then maybe they score. And it just may take forever to get the ball back. But it just keeps the energy up. And those guys did a good job today. I know you said you felt a lot of joy, maybe a little bit of relief. But how much of this can help confidence just of the team moving forward in these final games trying to make this playoff push? Yeah, I think you see the way these guys play every week. I've had a ton of confidence all year. Like I had a ton of confidence going into this game. And just the way we worked all week, because you can feel it. Sometimes you feel the teams have been on. Sometimes you can start to feel people look to the other side.  And it's given me a lot of confidence all year. Well, he's just very good about Jesse Bates and his career, new career high, sixth in the reception for him. I mean, he continues to just play great this season. You know, you want to make sure when you add guys and guys that may not have been here to get that contract that you've got to have the right guys. There's always risk in every move you make. We're very confident. We had a lot of carryover. Steve Jackson, I'm with Cincinnati. You know, a lot of people, Steve's one of the best, most honest people I've ever worked with. Those are the people who've kind of pumped people up and then the scouting that goes into it. And it really is about fit and chemistry, about what you want to do schematically. Because if you don't have a plan for that, then you're not going to give them the best chance to be successful. And Jesse's coming here. And yeah, he's a terrific football player clearly and a great teammate. And just very fortunate we were able to get him. Coach, it's week 16. And today is the first day that your defense has allowed a rushing touchdown to an opposing running back. What does that stat say about that unit? Well, I'll just play it. They've been stouting as a run. And sometimes if you're certain, certain coverages, some teams get to check with me. So they pick the ball up more if you're showing lighter. And it's kind of become a common thing in the NFL. So that's the game you're playing. So sometimes you see teams that, you know, depending on what we're playing, they try to check to pass. So it's a combination of a lot of things. They bow it up and we haven't given a lot of explosive runs all year. And been really good in the red zone.  And then can you walk us through the decision to use that timeout after the spiking of the ball with 10 seconds left there at the end of the first half? Because we were just going to run it, or we were going to run like a spread out just to milk the clock. So that's what I'm saying. There was a miscommunication about the play being set. And that's why there was no, they were still in the huddle. And that's where Taylor had the variance. And I'm asking a pump it, never set it. And they're not criticizing. So I'm not trying to get, I promise you I'm not trying to get fine. So this isn't a criticism. I'm just letting you know what happened. Because so the risk of war there, so why even have a, you know, we certainly won't get to take the five-yard penalty. That's what happened. But we were just going to run it, or we had talked about doing the sprint out, called a long foul ball, just so we could kick the field goal and not have to kick off. That was all that was going on. And I got to do a better job, not showing my frustration. Well, it'd be better now, I guess.  Thank you. Oh, sorry. Sorry. You spoke about wanting to be relevant late in the season. You guys had already seen what happened with New Orleans on Thursday. And depending on what happens with Tampa Bay, Jacksonville could be another three-way tile. What's it been like going through the NSC South this season? Well, it's every year. I mean, what it looks like sometimes in Thanksgiving and certainly changes in middle of December. That's what makes this league so fond to be a fan of. I mean, it's the most competitive professional league in the world, in my opinion. It's a week to week, everything changes. So with the end of the day, when you get caught up and you obviously want to control your own destiny, and if you can't, obviously you need help. But then nothing matters if you don't take care of your own games. And so it was a step in the right direction getting this win today. Thank you. All right, Taylor, could you take us through the game and a couple touchdowns, five field goals for the offense today? Yeah, I thought we played a pretty clean game. That's what we're trying to do. Obviously the story of the season so far has been turnovers and self-inflicted wounds. And that was kind of our message this week. Hey, let's not beat ourselves. Let's make them go beat us. So I thought we played a really clean game. I tried to get the ball in my hands quick, let those playmakers do their thing. Obviously, you want to kind of punch it in a little bit more when you get down there, but a win's a win. So we're happy with it. The opening drive, you got a big run by Bijan and then the touchdown pass to Kyle. What did you see on that play? Yeah, obviously Bijan having a big run. It's awesome, getting a lot of juice going. And then the play was that we had a curl. They made a little corner behind it. And I saw the corner take that curl slash out. And I saw a big area for Kyle in the end zone. So kind of just lay it out in the area and let them go get it. But that's how we want to start. We want to come out and start fast, put some points on the board, and go from there. So from start to finish, I thought we played really well.  Yeah, it's huge. Again, Art talks about the middle eight all the time. And you can win and lose games. That middle eight right there, half time. So again, going down there, getting those three points. And then coming up back on the second half and scoring a touchdown, it's huge for us. That's a 10 point swing. And it helps all phases of the game. Obviously, I fumbled that first snap. Wasn't a good feeling, but we rallied and got through it. And the block, I think the play was shortly after that, where you got a block for Bujon on that play and got the sidelines going over there. Just trying to play some football there. Yeah, I didn't really anticipate blocking today. But I hand the ball off and carried out my fake and saw he was reversing field. So I've said this before, every time I go out there, I kind of play like it's my last play, like it's my last game. Playing the end of the field is a very special opportunity. And when you get your number called, it's special. So when I go out there, I leave it all in the field. And that's what happens to be a corner right there. And I hope it looked better than it felt. Haven't seen it yet. But anything to get the guys going, a lot of juice. That was cool. At this point in the season with y'all's record coming in, this team felt like it might be getting a little tight coming down the stretch.  Regardless of the scenario, do you think that that helped this offense a little bit? That we're just going to go wing it and see what happens? Maybe. And again, I wouldn't say wing it. I know what you're trying to say. But there's a certain feeling you get when you just have that freedom. When you kind of just, in your head, just say, hey, man, what's the worst that can happen? A loss. But if you're going to lose, why do it uptight? Go out there and just let it all in the field. Again, there's not a play where you want to look back and be like, I wish I did this or that. I just go out there and play, see what you see, react. This game's supposed to be fun. That's why we started playing it. So I think the guys had some Jews coming out there today and we played a good game. Taylor, I didn't do my research yet. Have you ever started a game on Christmas Eve before? And then how did it feel to know that Christmas is tomorrow and you guys got to win? Yeah, the last two years I started on Christmas Eve and they've been awful. Two years ago, we went to Dallas and got beat by like 40. Last year, we went to San Fran and I got benched. So maybe a third time's a charm. But no, it's just great. We enjoy our holidays with the win. With the up and down season we've had, this is really special. So everyone's excited. Taylor, congratulations. I apologize that this has already been asked. Was there anything for you that felt different from the games against the Vikings and Cardinals that you started versus today? No, no. I just think all three phases showed up today. We played really good complementary football. We were never really backed up other than that one, I think that's our second drive, and we got out of it. Obviously we didn't go down and score anything, but we got, I think, to the 30 yard line and punted it and put them inside the 20, which is huge. That's just things that we don't talk about. That's just huge, complementary football. So the defense did a great job, especially seems a good job, and then offense, we kept moving the ball. It was a true team game today. So do you get specialty Jordans today? Oh yeah, I'll be posting some Jordans on Instagram late at night, I'll have to pick which ones I want, but I gotta keep the traditional life. In all seriousness, was there something that you sensed that may be different for you today than the first two starts you had here? You said something that Art said to me? No, was there something that you sensed that was different today versus the first two starts that you played here for yourself? No, I feel like I have the same mindset going into those other two games. Go out there, have fun, play with passion. When you do that, I think it's when you play your best. There are various odds-makers or whatever, New York Times, for instance, had said last week's loss dropped the Falcons' playoff chances to 8%. Now you guys might be in another three-way tie, depending on what happens with the last game today. Do you pay attention to that kind of thing and what has it been like for you guys in the locker room going through this crazy season in this division? Well, the cool thing about this locker room is, I don't, if we were 12 and four or four and 12, I don't think it would change a thing. The guys in there love playing ball, and we approach work every day the same.   You can't pay too much attention to it.  Our main focus is just doing our job and getting a win. I don't know if I can say this out loud, but obviously we're rooting for the Jags. Hopefully they get the job done. And we'll go from there, but we're just excited about this win. Get back on Tuesday and get ready for Chicago. Anything else? Thanks guys.


Okay, we're back here live in Las Vegas for day two of exclusive coverage. This is Splunk Conference dot conference 2013, the Splunk User Conference. I'm John Furrier with Dave Vellante. We're here with Grant Willard, founder of Jewelbug. Jewelbug makes a mobile app to help people conserve and save and be sustainable in an environment friendly way, right? I get that right? Welcome to the queue. Exactly, thanks a bunch. It's good to be here.  We talk a little bit about what Jewelbug's doing and love the name Jewelbug, obviously Jewel, relating to the power and energy, but also bug because, you know, Splunk, bug sense. So not to be confused with bug sense, Jewelbug is a different app, explain it. Thanks John. So we have an app that inspires rewards and motivates people to act more sustainably. So we've divided the world into literally hundreds of sustainable actions. We've made badges out of those and we encourage people to earn badges by doing something sustainable. Begins in the morning when you can take a shorter shower, use a reusable mug, alternative ways to get to work. Then when you're at work, eating sustainably, turning the lights off in the conference room. Then when you get home at night, making certain that thermostat gets turned down at night. So literally hundreds of everyday real world sustainable actions that we reward people in the app for doing good. A lot of hot products out there like Nest and other mobile devices that are being coming now lifestyle oriented, used to be like utility based things. So has that trend also helped you guys out and what are you seeing in terms of uptake for some of your users? So Nest is a great example. Nest is doing a whole lot of good things toward automating sustainable action, but at the end of the day, there's somebody that has to set that temperature on the Nest device. Do you set it at 72 or do you set it at 68? So what we do is encourage people to actually think about what temperature do they need to have their home in the summer? So if you're in the South from where I'm from, why do you need it to be 68 and wearing a sweater in the summer? So bump it up to 72 and wear shorts and short sleeves. So what we do is we approach it from the behavioral standpoint, encouraging people to act sustainably. Sure, you're gonna save a little bit of money. That's one of the aspects of it, but really what we're trying to do is get friends to encourage friends to do good things. Every one of us acts sustainably every day, but we do it for all different reasons. I'm the thermostat czar in my house. I do it because we like to save money. On any given Saturday, if the sun's out and the wind's blowing, my wife's gonna hang the sheets out because she likes the way they feel. My son never met a first-door that he didn't like. He likes to look. We all do sustainable actions for different reasons and they're all good. What we like to do is make those sustainable actions into sustainable moments. We like to think of them as like a Kodak moment where you actually take a picture of something interesting, fun, put it on our feed, and then actually like, we see that people like it, moves up the leaderboard, so it's a way of socially sharing sustainable actions and getting the crowd involved. You know, we're talking a lot about Splunk, and people use it for cost savings reasons, some reactive reasons on log files, exhaust laying around, the data laying around, but this is a good example of using data to create user experience. So talk about some of the gamification things that you do to make the app work, and now you must be using data to do that, to explain the data-driven mindset for your product company. So what we're doing is, anytime you do something sustainable, we're going to give you points. You earn points, you get badges, badges get pinned, so there's this entire leveling up, or this entire gamification level layer that we've implemented into the app. And that's then what provides us a large amount of the data that we're collecting on the back end that then allows us to help sustainability-minded leaders to understand what's happening in their communities. Talk about some of the examples that you guys had success stories for the folks out there. So what we've, we have a free app. That's how we actually interface with individuals. But that's really not what the business is orient around. The business is whenever we're in a community, such as if we're at a conference, we're in a community, somebody else is paying for the lights, somebody else is paying for the air conditioning. We're at a university, kids have never, kids have never had a control of the lights, never had to pay the light bill. Somebody else is paying their light bill. When we're at work, conference rooms, monitors, somebody else is paying the light bill. So what we do is we take Julebug and we provide it to community leaders, and that can be anybody at a company, anybody at a conference, anybody at a university that wants to lower their resource spend. So what we're doing is providing them levers to motivate their citizens, their students, their employees to act more sustainable. When they act more sustainably, when they're at work, at school, or in the go, somebody's gonna save some money, and what we do is sell that as a subscription service. So what we're doing is we're taking all of this user data that we're gathering as people are using mobile devices, telling people that they're saving money, telling people what they're doing. We aggregate that into Splunk Index and then provide it back to community leaders in the form of a dashboard. So that's how you're using Splunk. So you got a dashboard, is that for your customers or for the users or both? That's for the customers. The users only see the app.  So they're seeing the fun stuff.  We capture that, we capture the location, and we capture the time. And if they see our picture, and if that picture gets liked, and if that picture gets comments, we have all that information that then we're aggregating and providing that to a sustainability director of a city, of a university, of a company. Somebody that's willing to lower the resource spend is how we provide that information back to the community leader. So an organization will implement Jewel Bug across its user base, have some fun with it, you know, track it, put up a leaderboard, right, and see the results. So every community, we allow them to have what we call custom content. So imagine that it's, one of the newest to come on board is Texas A&M. So the Aggies have their own special badge, and they promote the things that they want to, that are important to them, own their campus. So they have their special badge, and then we give them the ability to conduct contests. So they can have dorms competing against dorms, and they can run contests on the dorm that saves the most money, gets a pizza party. So they have their own ability to have custom content and their own custom contests. And then we give them the analytics of what's happening in the background. And that's the SaaS, that's the software as a service subscription. Exactly, exactly. I was going to ask you, can I team up? Does Jewel Bug let me create teams? And it sounds like yes. We have a very sophisticated console that we provide a community, allows them to customize the content, allows them to conduct contests, how and see where they see fit. So at a university, which is really a small city, they have, it is a aggregation of students, and then it is a business with employees that are acting just like the faculty and staff are using resources just as normal employees do. So they divide that campus into two halves, the faculty staff half and the student half, and they can have contests and they can orient the students to do one thing, they can orient the faculty to do another. And so they have a lot of levers that they can use to control or affect or encourage behavior from their different communities. Okay, and for them the ROI is they're going to have bottom line savings, going to just cut their costs, right? The bottom line is that they're going to get their employees or their students to have fun saving money, taking shorter showers and turning off the lights and turning off the game controllers. And it's the honor system, right? It is the honor system. Which is okay, that's cool, there's nothing wrong with that. It's like golf, right? It's golf. Exactly, exactly. Get a couple of malligans. And so you don't have, is that the only current monetization vector or are you partnering with brands as well? Is there an advertising component to this or have you stayed away from that? There's a future advertising component, but it requires you to have a certain size which we're not quite there yet. But once we get to that size, there's a lot of opportunity for brands to promote products. NEST is a very good example. LED light bulbs, another example. You can't start that because of the chicken and egg problem. Now, so where are you guys at in the company? Maybe head count, funding, let me talk about that a little bit. So we're angel funded, been in business a couple of years, roughly a dozen people. Mostly bootstrapping. We should be profitable early next quarter. And you're a premium model, so you get the app for free, but you charge for the dashboard. Exactly. And you provide the support services, technology through the dashboards. So it's a freemium model. You can claim a community, but then the more customization you want, the more contests you want, the more analytics you want, the more you're going to pay. Got it, okay, great. Just on the horizon, how do you see the landscape? Obviously you've been a founder, startup, entrepreneur. Everything about sustainability has got some good vibe to it. What do you think we're doing right in our country? And what do you need to do better, in your opinion, around sustainable energy and just in general? Now you get into the tough questions. I mean, what we're wanting to do. Not everyone can afford a Tesla. Exactly, exactly. What we're, as I said earlier, we believe that everybody does sustainable actions. What we're trying to stay below some of the political rhetoric that surrounds this. And there are a lot of people that spend this a lot of different ways. We want to be agnostic and just let everybody see what others are doing. And the more people see what people are doing good, the more good we see that it'll happen. So we're trying to stay below that spin radar and really looking at it from an agnostic. Let's just share what people are doing, make it fun, sexy to promote. Jewelbug.com, go download it. It's available on the mobile phone. Service on the back end for customers. Great for universities, great for large organizations. Check it out, Grant Willard, thanks so much for coming outside to keep really appreciate it. This is theCUBE, we'll be right back with our next guest after this short break. Live from day two, splunkconference.conference2013. This is theCUBE, I'm John Furrier with Dave Vellante. We'll be right back.


If you have fears that those fears will seem to manifest not in reality not in heaven But just in perception just to bring you more closer in touch with what your thoughts are and your beliefs This is a good thing This is everything's working together for the good if you've got an unconscious fear and a desperation that you're not Acknowledging wouldn't you want it to be acknowledged wouldn't you want it to be brought up into awareness?   So you make every decision Consciously for the whole for the whole universe. You can't make a Decisions for the whole universe if you partly are listening to Holy Spirit and partly letting the ego run the ship You know from this unconscious guilt, so Let me give you a hint if this happens in your relationship With your partner with your child with your pet with your teacher Maybe your pet gives you that look like what happened to you that you aren't the same pet owner that I I Met when we first came together what you when did you get into all this guilt? What's going on or it could be with a partner? Let's say you're practicing using our tools expression sessions retreats No private thoughts and so on and so forth when this happens the best thing to do is Expose it now the best thing you could do now In this point of devastation is join now immediately Expose it go for an expression session Because what you want to do is you want to you want to keep nothing hidden? That's the whole point of spiritual awakening. There are no private thoughts. Nothing is kept hidden and to the ego This just seems like I got you again Like now I got you now you're devastated and now you better go back to the old way of hiding and protecting you know private thoughts private minds and you know Two ships passing in the night no communication. So this is a good teaching device You have to come into that state of mind with this world to say we don't I don't know anything for sure about this world But I'm gonna follow my heart. I'm gonna follow my joy. I'm gonna follow the connections I'm gonna follow the guidance and the prompts and the intuitions and I'm gonna follow that and then I'm going to Let the world do whatever the world does because in the end It still comes down to you have to let go of the belief that there's something outside of your mind Teachings of the course is basically saying no the ego belief is the only thing that's holding you back You have no external enemies The ego has projected these characters these shadow figures in the world to try to scare your mind into believing that it Can't escape but those shadow figures aren't the problem. They're just projections of the ego and As long as you believe there's an external world that's holding you back It may be it's your aunt or your uncle or your relative or your best friend Well, I can't do this because my best friend wouldn't like me anymore and And and then you have this thought like I have a concern about what other people think there it is again What other people think there aren't any other people there aren't any other people with private minds and private thoughts it's all coming down to our one mind and really staying Vision with the Holy Spirit and saying no I'm gonna follow your instructions and your joy all the way I'm going for the escape. I am not going to believe these doubt thoughts Even if I think there are other people Even if I think other people will leave me if I follow the truth Others may say that's not for me. I'm out of here We've been friends for so long, but I can't stand you talking about oneness God anymore I can't hear it anymore. I'm just not in a place to receive it. I have to say goodbye We have to allow all that we have to be able to face that fear We cannot give into the fear in our mind because that is the ego the exposing is so essential to the releasing Because if you don't expose if you fear to expose it must believe that you believe Something terribly has gone wrong. You must you must believe that you're unworthy of love You must believe that you're not going to get this right or you know, you're you're just Gonna mess things up and on and on the ego just goes rampant with its its Sense of you're not worthy of love and you're just getting what you deserve you blew it You broke the agreement and so on and so forth, you know When there's a broken agreement and something's not shared openly. There's a pressure in the mind and then I Love I think it's a roomie quote even if you've broken your vows a thousand times Come come again. There's the spirit coming through saying no no all is not lost The spirit is gonna handle this no matter how Devastating it is no matter how much you've allowed the fear to run Something in your life all is not lost because in the end Nothing can prevail against the will of God Nothing can prevail against the will of God. You cannot mess it up I'll say it again. You cannot mess it up The spirit of love is orchestrating everything behind the scenes for this exposure and release of this error And the spirit loves us so much that really in the end you will see there are no mistakes In the end you will see that you just were mistaken for a moment about identity and then all this time stuff Played out, but it wasn't real. It didn't really Harm you it didn't touch who you really are Who God created you to be is who you are and there's nothing of this world There's nothing of time and space that can prevail against God's will So hold on to your hats because Kansas is going bye bye


Let's talk about intrusion detection systems. So the purpose of this demonstration is to show how IDS works and also how IDS fails. There's gonna be some shortcomings with it. Most of the shortcomings have to do with encryption, but I want to kind of break down the details and show the why and the details behind it. A lot of people think IDS is kind of a great incredible thing that should have saved them. And I said should have because I've been looking at different breaches that occurred. I've talked to people have gone through breaches and it cut through the IDS system like butter. It's just no problem going right by it. And I'm gonna kind of show some of the reasons why. And a lot of this has to do with the fact that the threat model has changed over the years. And before we go any further, if you could do me a favor and click the links below, check out some of our affiliate links, check out some of the sponsors of the channel and find some great deals there. It really does help us out and click the like button while you're looking because that helps out YouTube and just helps discoverability of our videos. All right. Now digging into the encryption. The encryption part is interesting. So the internet has become dramatically more encrypted thanks to efforts by people like the Let's Encrypt Foundation. They've done a great job of bringing encryption to the masses when it comes to web traffic. And there is no doubt at all that bad actors are using this as well. Not to mention because IDS systems got good at finding these bad actors and including like Snort, Seracada and all the feeds and everything that goes into the open source intelligence community and even the paid subscription feeds that go beyond that. But they're all pattern based at the edge. Ideally, intrusion systems run at the edge of your network in this particular instance. It's running inside of this particular PF Sense firewall and we have it set up on our Ponage Network. That is a lab network that we have set up. We have it set for maximum detection and alerts because what we want to do is get some alerts in here. And here we are currently with no alerts. So we're starting out on a clean slate. We're going to create some alerts and show you what the IDS system can see and what it can't see and why it's still not a bad thing to have one, but it's become much, much less effective against modern attack methods. So we're also going to show you the rules and what Seracada is actually looking for in how these patterns match. So this is a file identity rules just downloaded from the latest download of the rule sets from Snort. You can see what it's looking for here. We're looking for these type of matches. We're looking for a file identity that matches this and ideally that would flag the system going, hey, if this comes through, we find these bits in the traffic as it's reading the flow. It digs into it and go, okay, matches this, drop it, stop it, make it not go through. And this was great. This is, you know, I've been working in tech for over 24 years and in the early days, this is how we identified things. We could wire shark it. We could grab a packet capture file. We could dig right into the traffic because, well, nothing was encrypted. 2019, dramatically different. Everything's encrypted now. Not everything, but many, many things. So any bad actors not using encryption are one probably amateur and don't get me wrong. This is still great at stopping the amateurs. It is great at stopping a lot of this old stuff because just because it used to be effective doesn't mean someone's still not trying to use it even though it's less effective because there's somebody out there that will still be trying to load some old piece of mailware. So that's still relevant in some aspects of it, but this is why you can't just rely on an intrusion detection system. So we can see all this different pattern matching. And there's like, this file is pretty big. There's a lot of things in there. But one of the things I want to point out right away is, there's so much of this is all reliant on HTTP traffic. So not HTTPS. That's where the hangup comes in. So we're going over here and we're going to create a file. So we have the home slash Lawrence systems, and then I made a file called, are you seeing this dot text? It contains the text. Hello, Lawrence systems. YouTube watchers with a dude flipping a table. Really simple. And we're going to show how this can be seen with Saracada and then how to make it invisible to Saracada. And, you know, I didn't want to put any bad files up on my server or anything like that to go will in depth with the demo. But for the purposes of this, this will get the job done to show you how the system works. Now over here, we have parrot running. And this is running in with X to go. So it's going to be able to get to it here. And this is on the ponage network. We can keep it all nice and separate. And we're just going to use curl, which is basically a command line to pull HTTP data down. So our HTTP www.laurancesystem.com, are you seeing this? Hello Lawrence system. YouTube watchers table flip. And now we're going to go over here. And we see it flagged. One of the flagged ET policy curl user agent outbound. And what it's saying is something on your network to use curl. That seems suspicious because if you weren't expecting that, maybe all of your users is normal web browsers. They shouldn't do that. So how do we make curl look like a normal web browser? Well, that's not much of a secret. And it's pretty much something that all of the bad actors are going to know. So we're going to go ahead and copy and paste this here. We're doing the same thing again this time. But we add a dash a and what a does is say use user agent. And we're going to say we're a Mozilla 5.0 user agent. Rev 59, Firefox 59. So no problem. Actually, we'll go ahead and clear this too. So clear so we don't have any messages in here. Go back. Same result, but we passed the user agent as Mozilla. Which means it doesn't even know it's curl traffic. So what about if we did this? Let's go back and say we curled it like this, which we know flags it, but we add an S here. Still no curl agent. Once you go HTTPS, it can't even identify that curl was on there. And because so many sites are using it, this blinds, things like Sericata, IDS systems. Unless each, and I mean each and every client, which may not be possible with certain IoT devices, also has a certificate set up that is also loaded into your firewall that allows the deeper inspection of the SSL traffic. So you can see right away how this can get really tricky. Let's dig in a little deeper and show how this works. So right here is our SSL Labs test report for LawrenceSystems.com. We are using all the way to TLS 1.3 as it says right here, which means it's essentially like a two layer of encryption. So even if we were to have a cert, this still wouldn't work because we're double encrypting it. But let's dig into actually what the packet transfer looks like. And the way we're going to do that is right here. PFSN supports full packet capture. So here's our ponage network. Here is the IP address of my website. You can see right here it matches. So LawrenceSystems.com, 6862216.9. And we want to filter for any traffic going there. So we're going to hit start. We're going to go here. And we'll do the curl with just HTTP. All right. And the file has been pulled. We'll stop the capture. Download the capture and open up Wireshark. Hey, right there. Are you seeing this? Text plane. All right.  We can see the hello right down here. Hello LawrenceSystems YouTube Watchers. And this because it doesn't decode some of the Unicode characters in this setup right now. But you can see hello LawrenceSystems YouTube Watchers. We can see the whole, every piece of it, each way. So here's the, are you seeing it? I think, yeah, user agent curl right there. That's how it's able to see that. So this is, you know, the full flow. We were able to look at these. And this is the type of pattern matching that's going on inside of Sericata or any other IDS system to go. These are the patterns we're looking for. Can we get this? All right. We see everything going on and we can pick out traffic that matches known bad traffic and say stop that from coming through. All right. Let's do this same thing again. So we go over here. Start the packet capture again. This time, we're just going to add the S. HTTPSlaunchSystems.com, are you seeing this? Pulse the file again. Go over here. Stop. Download. All right. Here we go. Well, this is not good. We can't see anything so far. Oh, we figured out they are going to launch systems.com so we know the domain. And that's pretty much where the data feed ends as far as what we can see. Right here. Server, cipher, spec. This is where we start doing the TLS 1.3. There is a TLS 1.3. Hello, cipher. The act that goes back and forth. Application data. And we're blind. This is the challenge that all of these tools face. All this data now is encrypted so we can go through and poke through it but without the keys. And by the way, if you dig into the TLS 1.3, it goes further and adds a second key exchange inside there. So first you have the outer key exchange as I would describe it and then the inner key exchange to keep it even more encrypted. But we don't even know the user agent that was used. Like we just went blind. This is why Siracada is an even flying curl user agent usage because that all goes away when you start encrypting everything. And this is the challenge faced with any type of intrusion detection system and this is one of the reasons that you really need defense in depth. You can only rely so much on the edge to protect you. You can have known lists as long as you always know those lists of bad actors' websites and say we're going to block these IP addresses. But that becomes very challenging when they host in common places like Amazon services or they take over. And this is one of the reasons that the common attack vector is this model. They take over an existing server or they modify a WordPress site, for example, and then create a subdomain under it. So a known trusted site now becomes known and trusted and easy because no one knows that site's infected. It looks like normal traffic because the only thing they can go to is, hey, everyone goes to this popular website. This is, you know, the challenge faced with a lot of modern security. This is why protecting the endpoints is just as important and maybe even more important when it comes to modern attacks that you can't just make assumptions that you can block it all at the edge. The edge is very blind anymore because of all this encryption. So even, you know, you're trying to do pattern recognition, everyone's trying to come up a magic sauce to work on the edge because, hey, it'd be great if I could put one box at the edge of my network to protect all boxes behind it. But that's old thinking. It just doesn't work that way anymore. And this is really why. And I want to do this video to explain that. But the other thing you can do, now this is where Serkada still has some importance, is if you have a server behind that you have ports open to. This is a scenario where you're trying to protect all the end users who generally access things through the browser, reaching out and it has a limited amount of visibility due to this TLS 1.3. The other side is if you have a mail server that you host internally. For example, with the latest round of XM exploits, if you had an XM mail server that you had hosted internally, well, here you go. You can have Serkada protecting and looking for patterns of people sending those attacks. So this is where intrusion detection systems can be very good. But that's if you're running an internal mail server. But this is also a reason you may put this if you host a mail server in a cloud. You may put something like Serkada or some type of IDS system that has rule matching in front of it. That way it can look for patterns because as much as we'd like to patch things, the instantaneous time that a bug comes out, sometimes that doesn't happen and this can help give you buy you a little bit of time to protect those servers towards the mail server port and go, hey, let's see this and let's stop it coming in and that's what some of these rules search when I went and just looked for some XM rules that are within there. So hopefully this video helps you gain a little bit better understanding of when it works, when it doesn't, what it can see, what it can't see depending on whether or not that traffic's encrypted and everything's about defense in depth and putting as many layers as possible to mitigate risk.
