And now I present to you James B. Madonna and the reference Dr. William J. Eisenman. Okay. We are here. Here, here. We are here. Excuse me, folks. We are here because we are not there. If we were there, we wouldn't be here. You know what? That's very, that's very smart. You were smart cookie, man. As profound. I always knew we were deep philosophers as well as broadcast journalists and soldiers of the progressive liberal army. You know, warriors. That sounds better. We are like the Knights Templar. Oh, I'm sorry, people. Welcome to Uncensored Hard-Hitting Truth. I'm your host, James P. Madonna of Megalife 21. And we are coming to you. What a new show. Actually, this is the very first show of February 2015. Ah, okay. And we're coming to you from the Newsletter Censored Research Center in northeast New Jersey. And I would like to introduce my illustrious co-host and mentor and the very founder of Newsletter Censored in 1977, the one and only, the Reverend Dr. William J. Eisenman. How are you feeling this week, sir? Who didn't get enough sleep last night? Well, I got sleep. I think the magnesium tablet did a good job of it. I got some sleep, all right, but I slept so soundly that I slept through the most obnoxious alarm that any alarm clock could ever blast off. I slept through that. And when I say obnoxious alarm, it goes like this. It's not a chime. It is not a jingle. It is not a song. It's not the radio. It's this. Yeah, like that. The new ones are usually like... No, no. I sleep through that. I would sleep through that. No, but a loud... 99.99% that throws me right out of bed. But for some reason, I don't... Maybe buy one of those old traditional ones with the bells on top. I used to have one. They wind up ones and then... They don't make the racket they did like in the old days. They're cheap, like everything else made in the U.S. How about the radio? Well, the volume would have to be... No, the radio alarm, you know? The alarm goes on, the radio comes on. And you've got 10-10 winds on there. I could listen. I could set it for loud volume. But nothing beats... to really ruffle your feathers, you know? But it didn't wake you. I don't know what happened. Maybe old Beezlebub caused the alarm not to go off so we cannot get the hard-hitting truth out there in the universe and into cyberspace. Anything's possible. You know what I mean? I mean, hey, if an evil spirit could throw... could hit a guy in the middle of his back with a wrench and throw things across the room...  Oh, it happens. If you watch that show, The Dead Files, with Steve Dushavi and Amy Allen, whom I salute, the both of them, congratulations. I think the show is now five years old, maybe more. To the both of them, Steve Dushavi, former New York City homicide detective, and I think he was a Marine, and then Amy Allen is a medium who talks to the dead who could see spirits. How can he talk to the dead when they're in the grave? Congratulations. These people are having experiences that are very real. So you're calling God a liar? Things... throw...   You don't think a demon can throw something across the room and hit you? No, you change the subject now. I just said she can't talk to the dead because they're dead. They know nothing. Well, maybe... They're in the grave. Well, maybe they're... It's possible that... He's talking to demons. Maybe they're demons in disguise. That's correct. Of dead people. If she's talking to them. The dead are dead. Until their resurrection. Even David is in the grave. So St. Valentine's Day Massacre on our wallets is coming soon. What is it? February 14th? Yeah. St. Valentine's... What's today? What? 7? St. Valentine's Day Massacre. So it's next week. The Massacre on our wallets. But anyway, I'll dedicate the show to the both of them. Amy Allen and Steve Dushavi. But anyway... What was I going to say? Oh, I want to say... I want to send my greetings to my Nia Di, a very close friend in Osaka, Japan. Miho. Hello, Miho. And also hello to my friend, former WWE superstar, Mr. Ken Thieson and personal trainer extraordinaire. Greetings. And also greetings to the one and only Eric Doyle of the Long Beach Kettlebell Club in Long Beach, California. And also unconventional asylum for the unconventional athlete. Greetings to the great Eric Doyle. And also greetings to my... probably the best administrators of Facebook groups. You can ever have Mr. Asash Boyle and Jolton, Joe Stevens and Anthony Laura of Everything Is Food. I send greetings to all three of them. And I'd say... I'd say that's about it, really. All right, so what we're going to do here is since we have many fantastic, very deep readings that we are going to sink our teeth into these readings very early because we've got some blockbusters, I was going to bring an appliance that prematurely died on me very similar to the... Toaster. The toaster that melted. That sunbeam toaster that literally melted. We've had other American appliances burn out, but this one I'll say for next time, the next show next week for the Chiseless Hall of Shame. And this time it's our Mr. Coffee drip coffee maker prematurely dying and just...  Wait till you hear the story next time because I slept through the alarm, which means I got up late, which means I didn't have time to get the Mr. Coffee and bring it over here. But we have enough to talk about. I just want to show people that for your health-conscious folks that feel that eating healthy, eating organic, you know, is beyond your means. It's too expensive. Well, here's a product that I picked up at my local supermarket shop, right? And it's an organic whole wheat rigatoni imported from Italy. Gia Russa is the company. 100% whole wheat rigatoni. All right? One pound. Not 13 or 14 ounces. One pound. Like the old days. What am I going to do with 14 ounces of macaroni? I need a pound.  Oh, I got the corkscrews, too, speaking of screw someone. I got the fusilli, the corkscrews, and I got the rigatoni because rigatoni is the most chewy. And it holds the sauce well. It's like a quente of all the... Yeah, because it's thick, but anyway... And of course I got the whole wheat. All right, all right, how much did it cost? Linguine and spaghetti. A couple bucks. A couple of bucks? Yeah. You're getting healthy, whole grain, whole wheat, organic macaroni.   Hold on, hold on, hold on.  But why do we have to pay more for organic? What is the natural way the thing grows? You're right, because doesn't it take more manpower? Yes. Doesn't it cost more money to refine a whole grain flour to denature it, to make it refined? So why would the whole wheat cost more than the refined semolina? Bingo. If the refined semolina takes more manpower and more time to make because it has to be refined. Whereas the whole wheat, semolina, all you do is you grind the whole wheat and you make your pasta. Bingo, that's it. Because it's that old conservative crony capitalism. It's capitalism.  How does that sound? Well, who's jacking up the price? Somebody's doing it. Not the sellers of the of the organic. They wouldn't do that unless they were forced to. Something fishy's going on with... Yes, there's something fishy. In the American food industry, yes. What it is, you know... I mean, something that is natural should be cost less. Right, because it's less involved. Less work involved. You know, anything refined is... You don't have to buy pesticides either. Right, anything refined, it takes more time, more manpower. You pay your employees more to refine a natural food than it is to leave it alone. Same thing with brown rice. Why does brown rice more expensive than white rice? You don't have to kick off the... remove the bran from the rice now. You leave it alone and you just package it. You know, it's like... Remember when the craze was... old bran was good for you. Lowest cholesterol and a lot of jazz. Well, old bran was... Before the news got out that old bran was healthy. Old bran was always dirt cheap, like many other food items. That all of a sudden they jacked up the price of old bran. They did the same thing to omega-3 fish oils. And resveratrol and coputin. And flaxseed... You can go on and on and on. Flaxseed oil used to be called linseed oil. And painted with it. And I remember, you can get a bottle of Haines. Flaxseed. Haines. Capsules. Haines. Haines. Haines. Not Mr. Haines. No. Oh gee, Mr. Douglas, I got something to sell you. No, no, it's Haines Foods. Los Angeles, California. Four bucks, you can get a bottle of cold pressed flaxseed oil. Then all of a sudden the news got out that flaxseed was good for you. And they jacked up the price. So, the retailers in this capitalist society are either deregulated like everything else Republicans do.  There's more massacres on our wallet than just St. Valentine's Day massacre people. Right now this is the mug I'm using because my other mug's dropped and broken. Oh my God. I'm using... Well, I get my mugs from the dollar store so... Nah, there's nothing like a nice shiny ceramic mug. Come on. A metal one. Ceramic mug. All right, listen. Let us sink our teeth into these readings because we got a lot of good readers. Bottles of Walmart brand Echinacea. An herb is said to ward off colds. We're found to contain no Echinacea at all. Doesn't surprise me with the Walton family. It does more than ward off the colds. It very effectively stimulates your immune system if it's real Echinacea. GNC brand bottles of St. John's wort. Cowded as a cure for depression. Hell, rice, garlic, and a tropical house plant. But not a trace of the herb. Fraud. In fact, DNA testing on hundreds of bottles of store brand herbal supplements sold as treatments for everything from memory loss to prostate trouble found that 4 out of 5, 80% contain none of the herbs on the label. Extremely unethical, complete consumer fraud. That was allowed by our system. Instead, they were packed with cheap fillers such as wheat bran, beans, or house plants. Cheapest fillers they can find without poisoning you. But they won't do you any good.  It's like a placebo pill. Based on the testing commissioned by his office, New York Attorney General Eric Snyderman said on Tuesday he has sent letters to the four major store chains involved. GNC, Target, Walmart, and Walgreens. Walgreens too? That's correct. Demanding that they immediately stop selling adulterated or mislabeled dietary supplements. To put it mildly, their crux is what he should have said lately. Snyderman said the supplements pose serious risks. They're fake. People who have allergies or are taking certain medications can suffer dangerous reactions from herbal concoctions that contain substances not listed on the label. Yeah. This investigation makes one thing abundantly clear. The old adage. Buy or beware. Maybe especially true for consumers of herbal supplements. Why should one of the most popular conservative adages have to apply anyway if the government should be doing their job as a police dog and making sure people are not getting robbed? Well, then we're back in the snake oil days, ain't we? The USDA, the USDA, they don't mean anything, do they? Why should you... You can't trust them. Bingo. As someone said on Facebook the other day. Can't be trusted. Like the USDA certified organic label. You trust that? I don't.  And assay everything. Yeah. And assay everything. That's our job, right? What about those people that are paid in the FDA and USDA? Shouldn't they be randomly testing? Yeah, but we keep hiring corporate-set people to do those jobs. You know, they don't want to do those jobs. They're in there to make government smaller. To party system.  They're crooks. They're corrupt. They take bribes. They're on the take.  You continue to put your trust in the career politicians of the two-party system. Who hire Michael Taylor's from Monsanto to run the FDA? They're in lies and the problem. Isn't it like having the fox run the hen house? Incorrecto, mundo. The herbal supplement industry criticizes the method used to analyze the samples and raise questions about the reliability of the problem. Of course they did. Just like the Walton family denied responsibility for ramming into Tracy Morgan's limousine. The driver of that is. The store chain with the poorest showing was Walmart. Of course, the greedyest scum of them all. Where only 4% of the products tested showed DNA from the plants listed on the labels. Spokesman for Walmart, Walgreens and GNC pledged to cooperate. Of course they pledged because they got hit. They got caught with their hands in the cookie jar. With the Attorney General. Target said it wouldn't comment without reviewing the full report. Oh, they have to review the full report? Either it's fake or it's not fake, the capsules. You know, what is there to review? Arthur Grohlman, a physician and pharmacology professor at Stony Brook University called the study a well-controlled, scientifically-based documentation of the outrageous degree of adulteration in the herbal supplement industry. I told you this was an important reading to kick off the show. A 2013 Canadian government study estimated there are 65,000 dietary supplements on the market consumed by more than 150 million Americans. The non-profit American Botanical Council estimated 2013 sales of herbal supplements in the United States at $6 billion. It's not even as much as the porn industry. Yeah, you're right. And just think how many years or decades have these nutritional supplement companies or even over-the-counter pharmaceuticals, how many years or decades has this been going on where people were unaware of this honesty, this fraud? And then they buy the product, they use the product, they say, hey, this product don't work. Well, of course it don't work, it ain't a product. And I've heard people tell me. And then they blamed herbs. And I've heard people tell me they took what I recommended and it didn't work.  That's why it's always good to buy from a reputable company. Well, I'm sure the suppliers are reputable. It's just that the companies ain't putting in what they're supposed to put in. Well, you know why? You just held it up. You just held it up. Is shelly? The Roman regattoni. Oh, okay.  The 14 ounces and the 13 ounces. They don't want to give you what they're trying to sell you. Well, it costs more. It's normally 16 ounces. 16 ounces of organic whole wheat pasta is a cost less for a company to make than the refined. You know, the 14 ounces of refined pasta. So if they don't give you what they say they are giving you, they make more money. Well, naturally.  Well, yeah. That's what it's all about. It's even like a drug dealer trying to sell watered down, stretched out. Cutting the heroin. Heroin or cocaine. Cutting it with something else. Right. You know. Put some talc in there or whatever, some of them things. I don't know. But all I know is it's fraud. So would you honestly agree that this is consumer fraud? Of course it is. But Mr. Schneiderman did not approach it that way, did he? No, he... He sent them a letter giving them a chance to correct the situation. He handled it with kid gloves. That's correct. He partially sugar coated it. And I think he had a... As a Democrat, he had sort of a corporatist approach to offend them or ruffle their feathers. When they should have been yelled at, insulted, they should have been called crooks, which is what they... Punished. Punished. Punishment. You know what I mean? Yeah. So these companies, including the failure to get tough by Mr. Schneiderman. Schneiderman. What's his first name, Eric? I put it away. All right. Mr. Schneiderman, Attorney General of New York State. Yes, yes, yes. Mr. Schneiderman.  Eric Schneiderman. Eric Schneiderman, shame on you for making nice, nice with these companies. And of course, our inductees into the Chiseless Hall of Shame for this week's, for the first show of February 2015, is Walmart, Walgreens, Target, and most shockingly... GNC. GNC. Very shocked at GNC. All of them are in the Chiseless Hall of Shame for this week's show.  You're despicable. Did I get them all? Target, Walgreens, Walmart, and GNC. And GNC, which shocks me most of all. Well, if they got those big four, there's probably others. That's what I mean. There's probably others. And who knows how long it's been going on or so. But anyway, I know we have a Chris Christie in this somewhere because I have one more not-so-complementary caricature of Chris Christie that I would like to use on the front cover of the show. So I know you might have one or two Christie's in there somewhere. But anyway, we'll get to it. Governor Christie vetoed a bill on Thursday that would strengthen by-American statutes for state and local governments siding with vigorous opposition to the business community in the face of union support for the legislation. Christie explaining his decision said, the bill would chill international development and increase costs borne by taxpayers. Yeah, why is that more important than what goes on in this country? Yeah. What about the jobs it creates in this country and the taxpayers that it creates in this country?   That are not good for us. Mr. Christie, a governor of a state should worry about international development? Another amazing hypocritical fact is that Republicans always behave and they always act so concerned about the taxpayer, the middle class taxpayers who are the real taxpayers, worrying about them paying where they've increased the taxes on the middle class taxpayer in reality because the rich are not paying their fair share. That's great. And I couldn't get over that banner I found about this, like over 400, I think it was like close to 500 billionaires in the United States. 492 billionaires in the United States. In this country? In this country alone. That's a lot of taxes, a lot of revenue that could be collected. Well, whenever we drop the tax rate down to the 20s like with, what was it, Harding or Hoover and Reagan and etc. We had hard times. We had hard economic times, joblessness, etc. Whenever we raise them up, things were better. The economy boomed. Yeah, skyrocket. It's clear, it's historically clear. The rich do not create jobs by having lowered taxes. No, no. Okay? The numbers speak for themselves. That's correct. Statistically.  Like tea baggers. Yeah. No, it's obvious that a high tax rate on the rich causes the economy to boom because it puts money back into the pocket of the true consumer which is the little guy. Yes, we must never forget how the economy works. I make something, I put it for sale, you buy it. And if you don't have the money to buy it? No sell. And guess what happens to my company? Belly up. Belly up. Thank you. No tiki, no washi. That's it. Clear and simple. Clear and simple. No tiki, there's no tiki because they can't afford the washi. Hold on. No tiki, tiki. The levity bells. Guys, we gotta warm them up. The bidding process will become more complex and reporting requirements will become more burdensome, the statement said. Rather than helping Americans, these bills will simply drive up the price of doing business and threaten job creation. Here we go again. Hold on, brother. Go ahead. Current law requires public work to be sourced from American producers. Wherever practical. But the bill would have put tougher limitations on government entities, requiring them to buy any goods from U.S. producers. The measure, which applied to contracts sufficiently large that they must be put out to bid, required government agencies to buy only products of which at least 50% of the cost comes from components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States. I could dig it, brother. I could dig it. The law would allow local and state governments to buy foreign goods in certain situations, including if the cost of the U.S. produced product was more than 20% higher than a foreign item, or if U.S. made products are not available in reasonable quantity. In those situations, however, companies would have to apply for a waiver from the law. Supporters argued as the bill made its way through the legislature that it would promote this investment in the United States and create jobs. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, people, remember one thing. Of course it won't sink in with UT baggers. There never was. You look good on paper though. There never was, and there never will be. There never is, and there never will be an actual working trickle-down economics. What we had during Reagan, and until now, is siphon up to the top 20%, mostly 1%, economics. The devil's economics. Siphon up economics. There is no trickle-down economics. I call it pistol-down economics because they are pissing on the little guy. The real consumer, by the way. So this is what we have. Siphon up economics. Never trickling down.  We do have some hecklers that try to torment us on the internet. There are no hecklers. I had to block them. I had to kick them out. There are no hecklers. What do you mean? Did they heckle the content?  Thank you. There are no hecklers. Well, they never... You do not pay attention to hecklers. Well, you don't heckle contents.  How could you heckle the real hard-hitting truth and intellect? What if you had a show?  And the hecklers all the time cursed him out. He's ugly.  He did not touch the content at all. Get a hot-looking chick to do the news, which they do. No. You're missing my point. The point is, the point is he could be like Lionel. He could be a very sharp-witted, very intelligent man. Okay. But if people start making fun of Lionel's brightly-colored ties and they get fixated on his brightly-colored suits... Or his hair cut. Or his hair cut. Or his nose hair. Or his eyeglasses. Or they see a nose hair sticking out of one of his nostrils. They're not focusing on what the man brings to the news station. So, they have nothing of use coming from them. And you do not listen to hecklers like that. They're not worthless. But they're relentless. They try to get under your skin. But that's what it's all about. It's that. The ad hominem attack. It's the other thing. Right. In other words, do you think they want to see you get pissed off? It's a personal, yes. Back and forth to the thing. It has nothing to do with the show. No, because it totally gets off top. That's correct. Yeah. That's correct. So, if you're worried about the show, per se, then you don't give them any time at all in your brain. Right. But if you're worried about your personal attire, or you haven't shaved, or some other thing, then that's a whole different kind of thing.  You guys are boring. Don't listen.  You guys are boring. Well, don't listen to the show. That's correct. Listen to the person listen to a boring show.  You don't have to listen to us. That's the thing. That's what's good about the freedom of uncensorship. You have the freedom to change the channel or turn it off. Press the remote, baby. Press the remote. Or let's click on your mouse and key part. Or hit F4. What is it? Alt F4. Does that fire a photon torpedo at you? Alt F4 just takes away the page you're on. Wouldn't it be great if you could fire a photon torpedo at him by pressing your keyboard? Anyway, I digress. That would be death. Oh, yeah. We don't achieve anything by death. No, but remember what Ricardo Montobon said in the Rathakon, revenge is a dish that is best served cold. But revenge is only for God. Vengeance is mine, Cisco. Not yours. No judgment. Right. You hear that right wing fundamentalist, cultist, counterfeit Christians, the ones that want to convert by the sword? And like Barack Obama made the statement that the inquisition and the crusades of the past are very similar to slavery and Jim Crow of modern times. Or the radical Muslims. Right. Because that's what the Catholic Church was at that time and etc. Converting by the sword, by torture, by any method, you know. The Jordanians are absolutely furiously livid. As they should be. But the point is do they burn that man to death? In a cage. However, now here's something interesting, it juxtaposition around the same time. A, what do you call it in like the Dalai Lama, a monk set himself on fire in a bowl or something like that. What is that proof? Well, I'm just saying. The one instance was coerced, the other one was freely entered into. Well, isn't that the same? He did it to make a point. Isn't that the same as all those Heaven's Gate fools that committed suicide? You know, Marshal Applewhite's people? Well, this is just an example. Jim Jones poisoning? This is an extreme example of people who believe things that aren't true and guide their lives by them. And take innocent human lives based on that unproven cult. I'm not going to call it Christianity or whatever, it's a cult. And it's alive and well in the United States of America. So is a Satan worship alive and well with many big wigs in the United States of America. However, if they truly believed in Satan, they would have to believe in God who is more powerful than Satan. So why would you even worship Satan?  There's no logic connected to these people. There's no logic connected to a lot of religion. And they all just happen to be these southern red state Bible-built states that just happen to have the most poverty of any other regions in the United States are these Republican red states. And so if the Republican ways are the best, if the conservative ways are the best, then why are these states number one in poverty? And everything connected with poverty and it was also shown by one of my people that subscriptions to gay porn was highest in these Bible-built red states of the South. Amazing. I would say there's some evidence that trafficking in slavery and women and et cetera in sex is kind of high in Pakistan. Oh, Muslim countries. There must be a lot of suppressed horny people. Yeah, but the men can do anything they want. Talk about double standards. The women get stoned to death. The women can't be buried waist high and in stoned. Women cannot be have any freedom or have any opinions or any rights at all. I mean, it's like I talk about double standards. And then you have the women who go along with it. Yeah, like the Fox News Blonde bombshells. Hey, Republicans in the United States, they don't recognize women's rights at all. They pretend they do. But then you have fools that come out and say, you know, women don't have a right to really much, should not have a right to much of anything. Well, they didn't until, what, 1920 or so, when they got to vote. I'm talking about this ridiculous right to life crapola. Well, that too, men should control their bodies.   What did I put up there? That's the only way, yeah.  Yeah, the woman's got to be unconscious. And then I made a statement that a Republican when a Republican's way of thinking is of an unconscious person because they're not conscious, means they're brain dead. Exactly. Ridiculous.   I mean, job creators, the rich.  But they get the FaceTime, don't they? Oh, yeah. But does Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and Jerry Brown of California or Al Frankenberry?  He really should insist on FaceTime. You know, he was all over the place when he had that syndicated show on Air America and writing all those books. He was all over the place. You'll see a lot of them soon, but it probably won't be good stuff that we would want them to do because they'll be up for a real action. Right. But what is he representing? Is he representing a progressive side of the Democratic Party? Silence! Like he used to be when he was on the talk show?  It really doesn't matter because he's quiet. He doesn't represent nothing if you don't say something. He's like the statue with the three monkeys. And ever since he got elected I haven't heard anything from him. He's like sergeant Schultz from Hogan Zero. I see nothing. I know nothing. I see nothing. I hear nothing. Nice. What time we got? Time for lunch? We got more blockbusters here. Chris Christie is trying to do more work. He's just showing he's more concerned about international affairs than he is about actual... Well international business. Because if we don't in the United States by American, we ain't going to get the jobs, we ain't going to get the money. It's going to go to some international, multinational corporation. Or maybe China. Maybe China. Well Christie's grooming himself for 2016. That's probably why he's all over the place traveling. Yeah, but why is it considered grooming if you are taking something away from Americans? Yeah, right. Well maybe taking something away from Americans doesn't include him and his rich buddies. Well it does. It does. That's what the point is. Well of course. He's not working for some jumbolony business in Hackensack, New Jersey. No. He's working for some big multinational. Hey, yeah. You're going to get the jobs. You're going to get the bids. You're going to get the money. That's what he's working for. Maybe his biggest concern is himself. Well I'm sure when you do your little job for these big multinational... Something in it for Christie. A little envelope. Must be something in it for him. That gets pressed into your palm. I mean look at him. He's a little beast. The stomach stapling never really worked. The gastric bypass didn't really work. Well, he's a glutton. So therefore his personality is that of a glutton. Me, me, me. Selfishness. It just shows. Anyway, we're going to break for lunch and then we will be joined by our voice-over artist William H. Morrill, the third and we'll be back for the balance of the show. That's a fright. Yes. I'm William Morrill. Wake up people, because the truth is often very often a very, very hard pill to swallow.

And you know what the average temperature around this area is in this early-core portion of February? Is it way below normal? We've been way below normal. The whole winter, you mean? Yeah, so far. You mean 2015 has been way below normal? And 2014. It's like an ice age. Well, the temperature should be 40. Really? Yeah. But we're going to have another week of cold. And next weekend, there's going to be a day, another day which will be down in single digits. Are we going to have snow and ice? That's on tomorrow and Monday. Tomorrow? Yes. Oh, I better make sure I got plenty of food for to make my big Sunday dinner. Well, you better have. I got some. I got oysters, but I want to make oysters.  The other cat that's here Wednesday, she wanted to go out, I let her out. She may not want to go out. Then she wanted to go in. Then she wanted to go in. Then she wanted to go out. You want to go out? Now you decide that this is I can't. I love to visit cats but I can never have them because they bust your balls. They bust your freaking unless you just want to say hi. Right? As soon as I go on the air you want to go? You want me to open the door?  You know all you cat lovers out there, you know I play with them. They're cute as hell. But you know what?  Go ahead. Just now just now when I'm ready to what I'm doing to show you, she couldn't do she couldn't do it before during lunchtime. Motherfucker. Of course not. No, no, no, no. Not during lunch.   You know what?  They're cats.  The show comes first. Go ahead. I wasn't saying nothing. I wasn't saying nothing. No, but I would have heard. I go through it every day. Yeah, but you don't have a camera going. A camera person rolling. And they want to go in and out at the wrong times. Like when you're like fast asleep or some. Or I could be here on the computer in engaging in a very game of chess that's only lasting 15 minutes and I have to take two minutes to get up and open the door and just any other things. Reverend Dr. Bill is a tournament caliber chess player. He's a chess enthusiast, but he plays these chess games that are timed. If somebody rushes me and I got to say to them if somebody rushes me here I got a big itch in the middle of my forehead.  Oh, who was that? You know, a body slam. If games were not timed that's exactly what would happen. You'd have the game lasting a week. I'm not ready to move the chess piece. You know. A chess referee or whatever they call him. Good chess. What do they call the jabroni that oversees the chess tournament? Chess umpire? Tournament director. A body slam right through the table. That wouldn't win a game.  Alright. I'll put these glasses on. Let us presume. The cat already sucked up half a friggin' reading from the show. Recently House Republicans voted for the 56 time 56 to repeal Obamacare. What do they care if the hold on. What do they care if the poor have health coverage or not?  They're rich. Where is their plan? Yeah. Where is their health plan for America? Health care plan. They won't want to repeal it but do they have a good replacement for Obamacare? Lots of people. Well, many low-income people are very happy with their Obamacare. How come they never say anything about improving it? They have a problem with it. Why don't they improve it? Why doesn't President Obama or any of the Democrats there in Washington call them out on this repealing of Obamacare saying you want to repeal it? Many poor people have health coverage that they never had before. What is your replacement? I want to know right now on C-SPAN, the cameras are rolling, Republican Party, Turtleface, Mitch McConnell, The Joker from Batman, John Boner, Bader. What is your replacement for Obamacare? Right now. Do you have a solution or do the poor just die outside the hospital? They're just playing games for their wages. What are the poor going to do when they get sick? What is your solution? They don't care. Nobody says this. It's the same thing about abortion. The embryo and the fetus they'll protect from now until doomsday. But once that baby is born, we wash our hands of it. Yes, that is true.  Therefore a fertilized human egg is not a human. Don't say it that way. Because that only antagonizes them more. What you've got to say is take it a question is a fertilized chicken egg a chicken. They have to answer that question. See? In other words, instead of giving them statements put it into a question. Sometimes. Just like the time ginger snaps over on our Facebook group was insisting that because she has a relative that runs an employment agency there's tons of American jobs just rolling in every week. There's tons of American jobs. Well, we'll get to that in a moment. There's tons of American jobs. How come all the jobs that I see require not only college degrees and certification training, whatever but they also require lots of years of experience. Employers in America want five plus years or more, experience with the degree. How many people that are out of work have these qualifications? Not that many. A lot of people are out of work with those qualifications. Right.  Of course. We will be there in a moment. Yes, okay. Go ahead. Doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different outcome is by the definition insanity or in this case playing to the base since Republicans have recently discovered the middle class perhaps they should concentrate. 16 is coming. On improving the law for 10 million of their constituents case in point I renewed my health insurance policy under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of Obamacare for 2015 with relative ease choosing to maintain the same policy. The federal health care exchange advised me that my portion of the monthly premium would be increased. I could have opted for a new plan but felt my portion was afforded. I also received a call from the insurance company regarding renewal and I said I was satisfied with my current plan and would be keeping it as it is. Shortly thereafter I received my new card much to my chagrin noticed my deductible had gone from $300 to $1,300. I was advised that was the new deductible period. I was pushed off to the health care exchange but that just didn't add up. The exchange unfortunately doesn't set or regulate rates for health insurance plans. It appears to me although the ACA has generated about 10 million more customers for the all-powerful insurance industry it's just not enough. Yeah. With this type of bargaining power why not negotiate privacy because in this America the free markets trump the greater good and sadly greed is still the king. That's obvious with that first reading we had about a consumer fraud greed is still the king. Well that's capitalism and greed go hand in hand. Or is it just the conservative version of crony capitalism goes hand in hand with greed? No, capitalism itself is set out to benefit only certain people at the top. It's whole that's how it works. What about this?  You mean to pacify you? Yeah. You may you may go to become a communist or a socialist. Or revolt. You know? They're all fantasies about owning your own home you own the home but you don't own the property you really do not have that many perks in owning your own home for those that are homeowners it's not easy but it's all bullshit the jobs are not out there the opportunities are few and far between and the laws are the system is rigged the top 20% period that's it Capitalism is right in the title Capitalism Capital equals money money profit so therefore who's going to benefit from capitalism? People who have capital hey and the reason why they're bashing two segments of life that should be rights and not privileges education and health care they bash that saying that it doesn't work and you know they want education and health care to be privatized meanwhile northern europe is things couldn't be better over there in northern europe free education free health care and republicans are they bashing they don't have a reason for why but those people over there are socialists but they're happy out there we become socialists in america you know what they do over there they tax the rich they're socialists so this is the word who demonize the word over here they don't want to be socialists they want to continue benefiting the top 20 percent they want it because these are the ones that have you mean the rich people not the have not the haves of course the haves are greedy bastards that don't want to pay taxes and help the poor and all that they generally they suck all the CEOs of the united states are wicked and greedy you know bratebeck of nestle he's the walton family of wal-mart the bill gates trying to come off as mr magnanimous meanwhile it slipped out about something about depopulation in one of his interviews he's in favor of it which is it when he's pushing vaccines now jaymey oliver is kind of making nice nice with monsanto's gmo's all these people are selling out opra too opra winfrey selling out what if I mention anything then the the famous progressive liberals out there like one in particular says I'm being negative I'm being toxic I think you're gonna be a warrior you're gonna be a progressive warrior let me just grow a titanium spine to be a fucking progressive warrior I don't think the founding fathers were too kind to george the third and his red coat it's kind of similar to what we have now george the third was just a greedy fuck that wanted to raise taxes on the colonists yeah because they because they were colonists because the royal family they were better than everyone else the empire wanted the resources of america carabin and everything right sometimes you get a pushback when you push people too far sometimes you get a pushback the old movie mutiny and a bounty with Charles Lawton playing captain bly his orders of sailing to tahiti to bring the breadfruit back to to make as quote unquote fodder for the slaves because they considered slaves like livestock to feed the slaves breadfruit which meant that they would have to eat breadfruit every friggin day it came from the king of England because that's what he wanted because the slave trade was exploitation to make money for the royal family of England they hoarded everything the king and basically at its basis what is slavery doing you're exploiting human beings for your monetary gain you don't pay them does that sound familiar unions and minimum wage and etc you don't want to pay them and privatized prisons built by corporations exactly and republicans being anti a minimum wage and anti-union you don't want to pay them because you're so greedy that you don't want to pay anybody you're greedy you want more you're protecting your haves you see well the haves are paying you to protect them so they are we call them lobbyists the world calls them corruption thank you I'm sure your people like Joni Ernst are bought and paid for a long time ago and she's just doing the bidding of the people who give her money and so is Mitch McConnell and all the others they're just doing the bidding of those that give them money but unfortunately to some of our people especially the ultra liberal you can't call them a corporate whore that's too harsh oh I'm being too negative I'm being toxic give me a break that's what they are if Oprah is making nice nice with Monsanto and Jamie Oliver is making nice nice with Monsanto what else do you want to call that you are doing the bidding of corporations that are paying you and you are you're sucking up to them you are a sycophant you are a sycophant but because of the negativity connected with you being a sycophant to corporations that makes you a corporate whore that's what I call them but because I said not because I said corporate because I said whore that upset some of the famous ultra liberals when you tell the truth you will have detractors oh you'll be attacked you'll always be attacked if you don't have the titanium spine to deal with that I'm talking about our own I'm talking about our own people going against us by being too harsh so what do you want to do you want to negotiate with evil what do you think about Obama tried for six years to negotiate with evil by partisanship every other word out of Nancy Pelosi's mouth was bipartisanship by partisanship we understand that nothing is going to get done in our government without compromise but the people will lose compromise to the other person who says I'm not going to compromise you're going to do things my way or it's the highway now that's not a compromise is it no it takes two people that's not bipartisanship is it it takes two sides that's correct but it's only one side you'll do what I say right that's it or we won't we won't compromise universal healthcare for all people and take care of the poor and the other side says no way under no circumstance how do you expect compromising to take place it's not going to happen that's right you want something for the good of the poor and mainstream they don't care about the poor and mainstream where does the bipartisanship come in it's just the same as the embryo and the fetus and the born baby we love the baby embryo we love the fetus when the baby's born and washed our hands of it it's as simple as that they are hypocrites they are bastards they are whores call them anything you want they are them things but unfortunately their people are so wedded to these people speaking for themselves and like I've always said they'll never vote for a democrat they are baby killers so where are they going to go so if I make an omelette out of fertilized eggs I'm a chicken killer that's right well I'm sure vegans feel that way it's equal it's equal fertilized duck egg fertilized chicken egg fertilized ostrich egg fertilized human egg none of them are human are babies and birds none of them at best they are potential at best if you leave them alone they are potential birds and babies humans family human you know but when you love the embryo and the fetus you don't like the rights of the woman see so many catch 22 so many contradictory hypocrisy when you're dealing with the right wing plus you're dealing with flat out stupidity because they constantly make asinine logical stupid statements all the time don't let scientists tell them anything they don't want to hear that so the laughing stock the United States laughing stock of the world is getting worse you know I mean they turn their back on scientists they turn their back on NASA the republicans don't know what they want to do they want to go back to when the Catholic Church was saying the world is flat they want to go back to those days there's some idiot republicans who believe the world is flat they don't want to agree with any scientists because this progress might very well mean government spending so there are so obsessed with shrinking government in the right places oh no the military the military it's fine to spend lots of money and waste lots of money on the military on planes that they have no intention of using that's okay but NASA and all these other scientists working on the global warming and the climate change all these other things cost money and they want to shrink government down to nothing helping the poor cost money but they like the military because then they get to go and steal other people's oil and military contractors for war profits that is where they are job producers for the private contractors for was it Northrop Grumman who made the F-35 a lot of people got paid there well I know there was there was competition between Boeing and Lockheed Lockheed Martin Lockheed Martin for a more inexpensive fixed wing aircraft fighter whatever and Lockheed won a contract and they competed for it but there are many weapons that just don't get used they end up in the boneyard we're talking about an enormous amount of money that could very easily feed all the homeless and give plenty of food stamps to the poor and help the veterans and all that I mean plenty of money from the military budget an idiot up on Facebook a couple of days ago when somebody was saying the military budget is the biggest part of the budget oh no the military is only like $550 billion no it ain't bad it's well over a trillion when you add up all the shit well one jabron he says instead of cutting and touching security they should cut welfare and I says what do you mean welfare welfare for the poor or subsidies for the rich they should definitely end all subsidies for the rich not give them one penny why would companies and people who are doing well need subsidies yeah why must they always cut help for the poor that was sucking up a lot of money yeah no it's not sucking up a lot of money compared to the military yeah but they're lazy they're getting something for nothing what about lazy corporate CEOs that are getting billions of dollars a year for nothing that's okay because they're getting bribes from them CEOs that's where the money comes from as the US the economy has steadily recovered from the great recession yeah the critical missing piece has been a painful lack of pay increases for many Americans their pain may be easy Friday's jobs report signal that raises go ahead have finally begun to flow flow through an economy in which once you factor in inflation most people earn less than when the downturn struck in 2007 the average hourly wage jumped 0.5% between December and January the sharpest monthly gain since 2008 the average has now risen 2.2% over the past 12 months too $24.75 comfortably comfortably above inflation private sector wages rose 2.6% in New York metropolitan area in 2014 according to the Bureau of Labor's Business higher than the national pace and above the rate seen in the last several years in this region America is really getting back to work and that's the first step to getting better paychecks said Tara Sinclair chief economist at the job posting site the pace of hiring has accelerated 34% since 2013 that growth has reduced the number of job seekers and made it harder for employers to find talented employees forcing employers to increase pay best worker the unemployment rate rose last month to 5.7% from 5.6% but that occurred for a good reason more than 700,000 Americans the most in 6 years began looking for jobs employers have added 3.2 million jobs over the last 12 months last year was the first year since 1997 that the private sector added more than 3 million jobs if we maintain that pace you get the wage increases that come when labor markets tighten it's going to be harder for companies to find the exact skills they need and workers who have skills are going to be able to be very busy employers are going to start to have to increase wages to attract employees where are these wages going to be increased in India, perhaps, in China and others are especially likely to rise for people with information technology and an analytical skill information technology not in the United States it's all outsourced that's what I said so first of all, they go to India go to China, Bangalore Thailand, whatever and they hire some skilled kind of like India's institute of technology whatever they put some big degree over there big university it something like that and then it requires a wage Microsoft they had a show on 60 minutes bragging about how great the IT people were in India they hired many of them because they were so impressive no, you hired many of them because they work much cheaper than the American IT employees that is correct that's why you hired but that 60 minutes just goes along with it and plays ball with them and doesn't call them out and then it just seems like we hire them because they're the best no, they don't mention the fact that they work much cheaper and they're exploiting those IT people from India of course but then there comes out exploitation that never comes out in the American mainstream media because capitalism is akin to God mom Chevrolet and Apple Pie is that a delusion of course it's a delusion but that delusion is combined with all those things that's like me so you can't say anything bad about that I just did don't you dare I don't care it's the truth why are you playing devil's advocate now because I'm playing how the society works society is living a lie okay now here's the thing Mr. James Madonna believes society is living a lie yes, American society so he goes out there on the street with his sixth gun and he's gonna plug a few holes in that society figure whatever and when James gets out there he looks around he sees us all along because all of these people against that society are spineless pussies people don't want to get together and work as a team that's great so when you are a truth teller you must pick your battles you cannot be drawn into the street alone well because you will be picked off by an American I don't rattle that easily sir now it's living in the loo listen if I I'm not gonna lie to you the title of this show is going to contain something very similar to you know explaining just how rotten American CEOs are because I hate their guts just telling you right now it's going to contain that but it's more than CEO I hate the look of society I just told you the society is brainwashed the society is corrupt totally the system the system is corrupt when we talk about two-party system we talk about Republicans and Democrats we talk about crony capitalism yeah yeah it's corrupt when I tell people you gotta stop thinking two-party system and you gotta start thinking progressive, independent that's another true statement did you ever see the movie Walking Call Euford Pusser Euford Pusser right Euford Pusser was a truth teller said it said it what happened to him in the end well he was up against a bunch of my point entirely he was up against the total corruption of the southern he was in the wrong region yeah what happens when the whole region of your country is that way there you go well listen my co-host and mentor could say what he wants but I will not become a liberal not Polly not Pollyanna would be inaccurate it's something else a Pollyanna just blows sunshine like Barney the dinosaur no it's not Pollyanna nobody is saying that like liberals have to become militants if they are a group yes don't you hear what I'm saying you can't do it alone let's say you think if Mahatma Gandhi went up against the Great Britain of today he would have been able to do what he did back then to chase Britain out of India well his timing was exactly was better that way he would have been a snot he thought now was it if you have a viable progressive independent team that stands a chance like a Bernie Sanders with Jesse Ventura with Ralph Nader something like that if you had that have that there is an excellent chance but if it's some Joe Paluka independent progressive he's not getting invited to the debates nobody is going to get to know him nobody is going to know him he's just going to be some name that's all the way to the far right of the voting booth that nobody knows anything about and forget it it's going to be a waste of a vote but that has to be how do you change that everything has to work in favor you don't change that out in the street with your six gun alone I never said I was going to be a fool but if somebody says something stupid on the group of course I'm going to answer them that's different I'm talking when the when the what's the saying when the chips fall when they may or whatever when the chips are down yeah that's what I'm talking about you know you got if somebody does an article on CEO of Nestle's who wants to control the world supply of drinking water and he shows his douche bag looking face you know and it's like it's like the ultimate in arrogance because you're talking about the world supply of drinking water I mean hundreds of millions of years living creatures have enjoyed pure drinking water now this one man who's playing God wants to play God and say no and privatize it all of course I'm going to curse him out yeah but the problem is the problem him or is the problem why he can get away with that why he can get away with that thank you so that's the point so if you're going if you're going to just curse him out and say he's got a mustache and all this stuff that don't mean anything because you're not touching the problem the problem is a system that allows these yeah to do what they do yeah gotcha though the nation as a whole recovered all the jobs in the recession last march I take issue with that I take issue with that those jobs that were lost in 2007 2008 ain't never coming back and the people who are not counted anymore on the unemployment roles because we can't find a job so we didn't recover all those jobs did we the jobs are just not out there hey if people with impressive resumes and PhDs and master's degrees and you know bachelor's degree I mean this is not counting the student loans that probably never pay back if they can't find a job and the banks just love that you mean when you owe student loan forever that's correct forever like in other words if you can only pay off the interest and the principal state and you owe the same amount of money over and over and over again yeah New Jersey has only regained 60% of the jobs it lost some economists note that pay figures tend to be volatile from month to month and that January's increase nationwide might be unsustainable part of the increase came from the fact that 20 states including New Jersey raised their minimum wages on January the 1 that's right see it was a what did it call it a bookkeeping trick Seattle Los Angeles there are certain parts of the nation who raised it to like $15 an hour still each additional job increases the number of paychecks in the United States which drives greater consumer spending and that tends to fuel further hiring and higher wages Ford Motor Company has announced at up to 500 of its lowest paid factory workers will receive a 48% raise to $28.50 an hour only 20% of its employees can be in lowest tier so Ford had to raise wages to higher 1550 workers to make pickup trucks in Missouri and Michigan other major companies including Etna the Gap have also announced pay increases the accelerating job and pay growth make it more likely that the Federal Reserve will begin raising the benchmark short-term interest rate by mid-year many Americans have yet to enjoy pay bump regardless of a tightening labor pool stop talking like Sylvester from Tweety Bird I couldn't understand you Sylvester would do that on S's I don't know what you meant you said pay bumps I don't know what you meant you said say bumps because the people out there might not know then they should find out bumps what the hell is a bump bumps I don't see anybody who watches Fox News and here's Megan Kelly say this or Brett Bear or New York Voodoo or Hannity or just any of it question it I don't see any of that bumps bumps I don't hear any of that they just accept what was said and make believe they understood it whatever was trying to contact me before during my show I'm going to ring their neck like a Thanksgiving turkey when I get all people have to learn respect when I'm on the air was that your phone yeah they really have to learn some fucking respect can't you shut it off I try to it won't shut off you mean like as in completely shut off what about the ringer it's on or it's on the the audio the point is if I shut it off there has to be a way of completely shutting it off there has to be but I don't know and the off button it goes off but I don't know how to really shut it off I don't want to be bothered you know what I mean the volume down would that turn the ringer down yeah but I'll still hear the fucking thing well then it don't turn the ringer down it's piece of shit I mean it works but I don't want to be bothered I want to shut it off I should call customer service and find out how do you shut this thing off we size using my sledge hammer many Americans have yet to enjoy pay bumps regardless of a tightening labor pull the wage figures from the labor department are averages so even when the averages improve millions of workers continue to endure stagnant incomes and rising expenses for example in the mining and logging sector of the economy which has been pummeled by plunging oil prices average wages actually fell in December economists also note that average wages can gyrate from month to month wages had dipped in December leading dean baker of the liberal center for economic policy and research to conclude that there's no real evidence of accelerating pay wages generally rise at an annual pace of more than 3% in a healthy economy the year over year average wage increase of 2.2% can feel a lot better than it might sound given today's historically low inflation low inflation why do we have higher prices if we have lower inflation it's not going up up up the price of meat the price of milk the price of penis the price of death and yet we have historically low inflation it's a lie don't understand it it's a lie because of sinking prices at the gasoline pump consumer prices had edged up just 0.8% over the past 12 months that means wages have risen a solid solid 1.4% after inflation that's a step in the right direction said bill hample hample stressed that job growth must continue at the current solid rate for a couple more years to make up for the plunge in incomes that accompanied the recession and persisted most of a 5.5 year old recovery and Doug Duncan chief economist Doug Duncan well the mortgage finance giant fanny may said the jobs report supports fanny may's expectation that stronger hiring and firming income growth will be primary capitalists for a faster pace of housing recovery in 2015 more corporate bullshit yeah yeah yeah yeah blah blah blah yadda yadda yadda all all hot air from CEOs so that's it I would say that's it for this week you got a a quick psychological no I got it oil companies Doug in California aquifers they toughen their shit in our pure fresh water in California California does Jerry Brown know about this I'm sure he does the progressive liberal moon beam Jerry Brown is letting this happen maybe you should read this one as a yes Jerry Brown has allowed another sell out so-called liberal shame on you Jerry Brown good regulators in California the country's third largest oil producing state have authorized oil companies to inject production fluids and waste into what are now federally protected aquifers federally protected there's your federal government agency trust there they've gotten that the Republicans don't want the government to own anything private industry to own it all they want to listen I'm sure deep down they know that dumping toxins in the environment eventually it will not be diluted it will be polluted and this is the obsession of their greed so with our hand once the money that is dumped into it will eventually become polluted yes more than 2,500 times risking contamination of underground water supply that could be used for drinking water or irrigation while the permits go back decades an analysis found that nearly half of those injection wells 46% were approved or began injections in the last 4 years under diameter Jerry Brown another Democrat first Hillary Clinton jumps in bed with Monsanto and and then John Kerry says there's nothing I can do about outsourcing and now Jerry Brown and other Democrats what is it, Dodd and Baucus say no to single payer universal healthcare back then so there's a lot of sell out Democrats oh shit Democrats Bill Clinton signs away Glass-Steagall when he was in and our fair as we know it please important program changes under Bill Clinton welfare as we know it went bye bye went bye bye and all the wonderful job growth we had were pretty much hamburger flipping jobs minimum wage which Republicans probably consider job creation in America all the minimum wage jobs they probably consider that good and a livable wage yeah that's what Joni Ernst says a married couple both making minimum wage can live adequately Jerry Brown to push state oil and gas regulators to speed up the permitting process that happened despite excuse me growing warnings from the EPA since 2011 that state regulators were out of compliance with federal laws meant to protect underground drinking water from oil field contamination in California we need a big course correction we need to get the system back in compliance said Jared Blumenfield fell regional administrator for the EPA Californians expect their water is not being polluted by oil producers the injections are convenient for oil companies because drilling brings up 13 gallons of wastewater for every gallon of petroly one of the easiest disposable methods is simply to send that wastewater back underground agrees destroying the planet because of capitalism profit before people on the planet and if you had a system like they have in northern Europe that is a very fair system you could still go into business and build your business to be very successful but if it becomes successful and you become rich or your business you have to pay your fair share of taxes that's all you make more money you pay more taxes but you don't have to say bye bye to capitalism completely we're not saying that I am well aren't there companies in Scandinavia that flourish that exist and they pay their taxes right there's another economic system which is better so why would I be satisfied with capitalism that's my point sure it can be made to work a little fairer correct but that's based on christianity we have no proof it's not based on christianity it's not based on being kind to people well it's based on give what they're doing in Scandinavia is very similar to that no it isn't sure it is there's every person in Scandinavia own their own piece of land well no that they can never lose they can go to a university or doctor it for free well that's only one little thing I see where you're going all you're doing is changing the system around the edges there well I'm talking about I'm saying trash I'm talking about something you can aim for realistically in the united states instead of just allowing everything to destroy waiting for crisis second return what the hell does that have to do with god's economics versus capitalist talk to washington talk to washington about god's economics they're not going to listen you don't have to call it god's economics it's just a fairer way of dealing with people what's the way progressives look at it's a give way of life it's like the way progressives look at government and life is very similar to northern europe to Scandinavia fine but northern europe does not have it all proper well you're right about that I'm talking about a more totally fair and beautiful way of life well first you got to stop the corruption and the way to do that is you got to get the money out of politics and you got to change the system yeah priorities priorities first those are the main priorities now once you do that then the environment and helping the poor and helping the veterans and human rights and all that jazz it all falls into place but you got to you got to get the crud and crap and clean out the barn first like if you buy a house right you got to clean it up before you move in and if you want to sell the house you got to make it spiffy too yeah well today you know what they do they just put little curbside stuff on the house so then it looks bad well they could say buy as is well you could still have walls and ropes handyman special buy as is like with a car well of course you of course you always have people that want more for less if you say buy as is they want the world you know what I noticed something Dr. Bill is people have trouble listening and really focusing they don't read ads they don't read profiles they don't hear your words verbatim they have a great deal of problem focusing and listening like it's like a bunch of Sarah Palin's walking around you know why because they have their own thoughts and their own head and they trump with their hero because they're being selfish they want to put their stamp on everything now if somebody is very well read very smart and they're willing to shut up and listen to the other opinion and hear the other person out and then they could decide whether or not they want to compromise or change their mind that's okay but when you have somebody that don't listen and puts words in your mouth I mean how many times on holistic health talk facebook group that I put down please people members don't upload duplicate posts it's almost like spamming the same thing you're uploading it and you're cluttering up the group's album it's the same post buy my book buy my book and I tell the person and one person gets back to me and says no problem James will take care of it guess what duplicate uploads is still there now I have to start getting rid of members and now I'm going to be the meanie the big meanie that's terminating members well if you listen to me at the beginning I wouldn't have to terminate memberships it's like people have this hard headed problem with focusing and listening you don't have to agree with me at least listen that's it again like I say it's their ego their thoughts have to trump your thoughts didn't you place it before you change repent whatever you want to call it contemplate you have to sit there maybe this guy maybe you're wrong maybe this guy has something didn't you place an automotive ad on craigslist and you put it down by as is and then people were asking you 1001 questions and they want you know it's like hey man you see the car you see the year of the car the model I'm telling you it needs work well no basically I indicated that I would sell to someone only who was interested in restoring it so obviously that meant as is then you had people who were not into the investment of the old car they wanted a car for using every day like the like the jabroni that wanted to buy the car for his son it's not that kind of vehicle it needs a lot of work that was the Ford right Mustang too right they don't read and focus on the ad they don't listen and this is your average American today so anyway thank you for joining us for this week's uncensored heart hitting truth do you think ISIS listens to another opinion not really do you think the Roman Catholic Church does do you think the T publicans listen to other people's opinion do you think they care the GOP there you go alright say goodnight to these jabronis goodnight jabroni hiho this has been a mega life 21 production


So let's take a look at this distinction that humans give us between relations of ideas and matters of fact. Now, humans still basically an empiricist. He thinks that platonic form should be cast to the side, right? If it's not empirical, right? It should be cast to the fire. So here are two ways that he tells us that we can justify our beliefs. Either our beliefs are justified as a relation of ideas or our beliefs are justified as a matter of fact. Now, matter of fact, these beliefs are true, right? So here's a matter of fact. I am wearing a white shirt. I am six feet tall. There is no present king of France, right? These are all matters of fact. They are true, but it's possible they could be false, right? France did have a monarchy for a long time. It's possible in some sense of the word that they could have, you know, either the monarchy survived or they started a new one. I am six feet tall, but it's possible I could have been at different height. I am wearing a white shirt, but I have a wide variety of shirts. I could have worn something other than white today. So these are all true, but they could have been false. They're in fact true, but they could have been false. And we verify that these beliefs, these propositions are true mostly through experience, right? Through our everyday experiences, okay? So I observe my shirt as white. Hey, I'm wearing a white shirt. That's justified. I look at the French former government. It's not a monarchy. Well, then there I know this. There's not a present king of France. I measure myself. I'm, you know, go to the doctor's office. I measure myself. Hey, look at that. I'm six feet tall, right? These are all verified, proven through experience. The other way that beliefs are justified the way that they're proven is as a relation of ideas. Now, relations of ideas are true and they must be true. They cannot be false. They are true and they must be true. They cannot be false. And they're true and virtue the meanings of the terms, right? The meanings of the terms necessitate that these propositions are true, okay? So it's something like all squares have four sides. That must be true. How do I know this? Well, through the meanings of the terms, right? What's the definition of square? It's an equilateral, equi-angular, quadrilateral. Quadrilateral means four-sided. Therefore, all squares, which are equilateral, equilateral, quadrilaterals have four sides. So it must be true in virtue of the meanings of the terms. That's one way we could test it. We could test it another way. Let's assume it's false. Assume the proposition is false. And if we derive a contradiction from that assumption, then it can't be false. Okay. So all squares have four sides. If I say that that is false, I say that some square does not have four sides. And again, the definition of square is equilateral, equi-angular, quadrilateral. So when I say some square does not have four sides, I am saying some four-sided figure does not have four sides. That's a contradiction. It's inconsistent in and of itself. So it can't be false. That means it must be true. It must be true. Okay. Now, that's the difference between relations of ideas and matters of fact. Let's try one more relation of ideas. There is a largest number. There is a largest number. Well, I'm sorry. There is no largest number. Excuse me. There is no largest number. There is no largest number. Well, how do I know that? Well, by the definition of number. And so we take something like, you know, these three basic axioms of a number, zero is a number, successor of a number is a number. These are numbers and those three axioms, I think called pianos axioms. Okay. Well, we take that together and from this we can infer there is no largest number. Why? Well, because any number that we say is the largest number, I can simply add one to it and boom. I've got another, I've got a larger number. Okay. Well, that's one simply virtue of the meanings of the term. Try just boom, I've showed that that there is no largest number because any contender that you pick, it doesn't matter which one, I can add one to it and it's larger. Well, let's, let's assume it's false. There is a largest number. There is a largest number. Well, okay. So what happens if I did that? Well, I take that number and by the definition number, right, I add one to it and I've got a largest number, a larger number. So then that number is both the largest number and it's not the largest number. So now the contradiction. Okay. So there's two ways to prove something is true as a relation of ideas. Uh, you know, it's true simply in virtue of the meanings of the terms, right? It can't, it can't be false. So it's true simply in virtue of the meanings of the terms. The other way is to assume it's false. And if you assume it's false and derive a contradiction, then it can't be false. It must be true. So what we're going to do is, we've got a collection of propositions here. All right. I want you to go through and try to figure out which ones are true as a relation of ideas and which ones are true as a matter of fact.


All right. So I'm good. All right. Hello everyone. My name is Brianna, although most people just call me Bri, and I'm going to be giving a lightning talk today with Jay. And we're going to tell you a little bit more about a group of people known as the gosh community. Thank you, Jay. All right. So usually we use the word gosh what the heck does that mean what does it stand for it stands for the gathering for open science hardware. So we are a group of people from all over the world that are dedicated to making open science hardware ubiquitous. So we have gatherings that have taken place in over four different countries and when we aren't gathering in person, we're all talking online on our community forum. So we're all about networking and convening and holding space together as a group of people. Okay. We talked about the G a little bit gathering, but we've got the rest of it open science hardware and I'm not sure how many of you might be familiar with what science hardware is open hardware that sort of stuff. So let me just quickly explain what open science hardware is. So I am sharing this picture. I really like to have it up when I'm describing open science hardware because you can actually see inside of this camera trap right now. And so I think it does a really good illustration of proving the purpose of open science hardware, which is having access to what is inside the tools that we use for science. So this is a camera trap that's often used for wildlife conservation. But now we can see inside of it. We can see the designs. We can see how to recreate it and basically following the same principles as open source software. Open source hardware is all about being able to use see and modify the designs that we use to make science hardware. And gosh specifically is concerned with science tools. So I often think of microscope sensors, things like that, just any kind of equipment that you find in a lab or in some sort of scientific setting. So I won't get too into this because I know we've got a lot of lightning talks that are happening today, but just really quickly some places like gosh has met before our very first gathering was at CERN in Switzerland in 2016. And then after that we went all the way to Chile the year after. And then we actually were in Shenzhen China as well. So we've already different continents and because we are such a global community, we have our events all over the world and convene people from all sorts of spaces. Right. Yeah, so I'll just be just briefly talking about the latest gathering that we had, it was last year in November, October, November. Yeah. And it was happening in Panama, which is, you know, in the South America area. Central America, sorry, Central America area just last year.  And yeah, just, you know, as a little fun picture that we also put here, you can see that's a lekké, which is the pretty much the exotic sort of national animal, right? Yeah. National animal of Panama. That was, you know, a huge theme at our gathering in Panama last year, which is something we people at gosh like to do when we have gatherings is that like to get involved in the country's culture and kind of bring it together with the whole theme of gosh and just essentially make the fun for everybody. So yeah. Right. And she was just a quick one minute video of just what was happening at gosh last year and just like everyone's brief input and like what was happening at gosh 2022 last year. So yeah. Open science hardware is about clear boxes. It's about being able to see everything inside of your tool, know exactly how it works and know how it can be replicated for anyone in the world. This year, we brought the gathering for open science hardware to Panama. I'm really excited about having us in Panama because there's almost no place on earth where you can have this very fascinating intersection, especially for a group that's as interested in science and technology as us to have both of those right there. This massive globalization right next to a bunch of howler monkeys making sounds in the jungle. Probably the most important thing about the gosh community is making these connections between all of these wonderfully strange individuals who are all incredibly active and excited about sharing their thing and finding outlets and communities for them to share with. Okay, so yeah that was the video and over here is just a cure code in case you guys are interested to find out more about gosh and our community. Yeah, this is just basically a cure code to a webpage that has a welcome package is just list of bunch of information about gosh is essentially like an e catalog if you think about it, and you can just check it out. You have a bunch of projects up there. And yeah, if you can access the cure code, of course you can use the website as well. So yeah, and we won't take up any more footage of your time because you're more lightning talks but yes, if you're free please do come check us out at our booth which is all the way right at the back right next to the exit on that side of the room. So yeah, thank you all for your time of attention and we just hand it over to the next speaker. Thank you.


Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the official press conference for the 2019 rev-line Torren FIM Speedway Grand Prix of Poland. We've got the top three riders in the world this year. I'm going to start with Bartosz Marzlik. Bartosz, sorry. Pretty simple question, really. 2019 World Speedway Champion. How does it feel? This is unbelievable, yeah. Because I don't know what he's saying now, because I'm a huge man on the Polish world champion. I think after my idol, Tomasz Golub, the gold medal has come back to me. And thank you very much for my team, sponsor people and Tomasz and my tuner, for everyone who has helped me, because the very big workings, the whole year this year, I think so, because the hard meeting all the time with the other boys, yeah. Well, I congratulate you. I'll come back to you again in a minute. I think this is nice and short tonight. Leon Madsen, we talked about it on the podium. We talked about it through the night. You couldn't have done any more with this push for the World Championship tonight. Now I pushed him hard as I could, you know, but well done to Bartosz and well done to Emil. I did my best, you know, and anyway, silver medal, first season in the GP. I am so happy, you know, thinking about the season I had I can't be more happy, you know. It's been a great year and what a night to finish off the season. I'm going to come back even stronger next year when I'll be fully fit again. And yeah, now I'm just going to enjoy the wintertime and then looking forward for next year. Huge congratulations on the silver medal and well done tonight. Thank you very much. Emil, so food enough. You came here with a mathematical chance to be world champion. I'll start with a word for Bartek. He's done a great job all year and he did a fantastic job tonight. Yeah, for sure. Congratulations, Bartek and Lyon. To be honest, you know, it's a great season for me and I'm just happy, you know, about that.  So we'll see, you know, I will be preparing for this next season and still have gold to be world champion. So I have a plan. I have a chance, so I will do. All right, well done to you tonight on the bronze medal in a great season. I'm just going to go back to Bartosz for the last question. Bartosz, if I say three names, Josie Szczakiel, Thomas Gollab, Bartosz Smarslik. It's a pretty impressive club you've just joined. Yeah, now is one club in the world champion. So really nice, yeah, because I'm, I don't feeling the now. I'm Bartosz Mardik's world champion, so this is unbelievable and amazing and maybe coming the world champion tomorrow to me, because, you know, I don't feeling now. All right, well, that's our top three in the world this year, Bartosz Smarslik world champion, Leon Madsen, silver medalist, Emil Sofidinov, bronze medalist, and Bartosz wants to say one more thing. And of course, the big congratulations to him and to Leon because they're very hard racing at the very time with this guy. Wonderful words. The fireworks have started in the sky. The fireworks have finished on the track for this year. Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes the press conference for the 2019 Rev Line Torren FIM Speedway Grand Prix of Poland. Congratulations, gentlemen. Good luck. We'll see you next year.
