Okay, we are here. It is the end of Well, you wouldn't think about a weather, but it is the end of summer 2015 the end the end of Now not the end of summer the the end of August just about But the weather is still hot. Usually we get pre Labor Day weekend kind of weather, you know, but it is cooling down a bit All right, you get the formalities over with um, oh Before I I get the way let me get the formalities over Greetings, everyone. My name is James P. Madonna of mega life 21 the hardest-hitting internet or radio station on the planet and I would like to introduce my illustrious co-host and mentor and the very founder of newsletters censored in 1977 the one and only the Reverend Dr. William J. Eisenman. How are you feeling this week, sir? Good now We are coming to you from the newsletter censored research center in northeastern, New Jersey I would like to say hello to my near-dear friend in Osaka, Japan. Miho greetings.  Otherwise, it's white You know. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Um, I was shopping Um in the big Korean market called H. Mar. I needed green tea. I ran out and I noticed the the bee products, you know the the honeys of different kinds of honey, of course the Unpasturized raw Wildflower honey the raw honey was the most expensive. Mm-hmm very expensive.  I I I I found out that the government I Guess the FDA allows companies to call a cactus honey Even if it's nothing but a Gavae nectar, which is the agave yoga is the right is the The Gavae is the plant they make tequila from it's it's a desert It looks like an aloe. It looks it's a desert plant and they derive this I Don't know if it's low glycemic, but they derive this sweetener called a Gavae nectar and They the government actually allows them to call it Cactus honey, and it's not cactus honey. So I look at the bag. I read the ingredients of every company What do I find? I find that that There is no of assurance that it's honey and There are other ingredients other fillers which are just cheap starch carbohydrates and other sweeteners mixed in with the so-called Cactus honey powder, which they claim may not come from a cactus blossom So now they're telling you the truth. They're calling it cactus honey, but the contents Does not come necessarily from a cactus blossom what I'm trying to say is there's your Deregulated America for you deregulated companies. Thank you Republicans. You can owe You know you can give thanks to them for this Not getting what the label says Not getting a quality product There are quality products out there, but you'll you'll have to pay more So I just want to get that off and that's it our first chisels whole of shame inductee the food companies out there Putting out B products, but they're all guilty They're all guilty all the whole entire food industry Okay, which our food should be one place Where there should be no pollution corruption or etc Thanks to deregulation of course They can do what they want with our food Yeah, of course the ideal Situation would be a pristine organic farm In a pristine part of the country Without any dangers of pesticides, you know of any kind DDT Organically grown a real organic food Not USDA Labeled organic as a as an aside Locally here I'm forgetting the the city exactly but a DPW Manager in one of our local cities here told his people to poor pesticides on This robin's nest Off a cuts to kill the eggs and the bird or whatever was in there at the nest Well, the people refused So he did it Now he's being up on charges of animal cruelty good But I you know, I don't know there that it there could be a year in jail If he really gets well hammered, but I don't know I was told by I was told by a relative that some landscaper in the Florida Keys Was planning on shooting iguanas with a BB gun because the iguanas were eating the flowers Well, that's what a iguanas do. They like brightly colored things. I mean, I don't know Well, this is what was happening while man man is encroaching a upon the animals habitats Yeah, because of the greed of real estate and building strip malls and what have you Whatever, you know Places like Las Vegas and stuff like that. Nobody should be living there There's no water. It was a complete way. It was a complete wasteland. Yeah What was a lucky Lucy Annie or no, it was the flamingo. I think the flamingo Mafia, you know, they they built it up Mo Green Mo Green and all that's the first the first casino the first hotel casino That was a big Gamble in itself. They took it a huge chance Trying to build a resort there was I think it was the the old flamingo was as one of the Yeah, I mean, of course, it was long since torn down But but that area is a desert that you have to pump water from either Lake Tahoe in the north or or the what is it Lake Mead? The reservoir, you know, and you and but that's drying up. Yeah, and so is the Colorado River. Yeah And if it don't dry up the old EPA wants to pollute it, you know California the whole you might as well say America's West is Running out of water from climate change It's running out of trees now, too, because it's on fire climate seven states on fire. Well, everything's bone-dry I mean climate change global warming that scientists have been Talking about for a long time and Republicans Turned their back on they only 97% I'll decide this. Oh, I heard I heard Canada sent the Plains and equipment and and and the crew to help out with the California fires because the Republican Party the Republican Congress cut funding That will enable the United States to fight this fire. So Canada Is is there to help I salute country of Canada people In the United States pick on you and and and mock you and make jokes about you, but I salute you Out of respect for what you did. All right.  Offered to help the hurricane Katrina Victims and I think Andrew in Florida. I mean the the big hurricanes they and GW Bush said no to all of them Well for years, Mr. Hugo Chavez. I mean he was with Joe Kennedy. I mean he was You know giving free oil to the United States to the poor Poor and seniors living on a fixed income to heat their home. Yes. Yes.    Okay. Now, of course All Republicans have a permanent Home in the chiseless Hall of Shay. They just happen to be there forever. So our corporate American CEO is the gated community It's pretty gated Yeah, but they're in the chiseless holes. Yeah. All right. Here's the grand finale that I was talking to you about Wednesday One of the biggest inductees I would ever make In the chiseless hole of shame is this This is my big kahuna This Retired older couple by the name of Joe and Kathy from Bergen County, New Jersey They They purchased a new Acura From a local dealership. Okay, they love the car Of course, you know, all right, it's a hunt. It's a it's a it's an upscaled Honda Accord is what it is You know, so an Acura is a Honda. It sells itself. Okay, fine Joe and Kathy By accident when they opened the trunk they noticed they had no spare tire and no doughnut. Oh They call the dealership and they tell them We have no spare tire.  What do we do? Oh, you're up the call us to get towed. Ah, you have to call us to get towed. How convenient Oh, do we have to pay for the towing? Yes. Yes, indeed. Ah, I see a pattern developing here Yeah, good old American retail capitalism at its best. Hey, they're creating jobs, no Now you would think now as soon as you think that car dealers could not be any sleazier and low down You haven't heard everything until now so Maybe we should go to Ray Katina Joe, no, no, you know what he told him. He says that's across the board The all the car all the car dealers are doing it now. You're not getting it Getting to getting the spare. Nobody to stop them right now No Oh you go you gotta get towed. Oh, how convenient. I can't change my tire now Gotta get towed. Okay. Now just like you gotta pay for air in most gas stations most gas stations All right So Joe and Kathy asked the dealership, uh, well Is it possible for us to uh purchase? A spare or doughnut That will fit in the trunk Oh, yes The dealership says we have a doughnut.  No, it's not because they're assembled. They're now assembled in all here. You said it's across the board Look at the US dealerships Japanese don't have to do it The yeah, US dealerships. It's across the board now now your Toyota's and your Honda's Are being assembled here. I guess to avoid the Taxes or something import Ford wants to build a Company in Mexico. Yeah a few billion dollars. Yeah, I know Donald Trump was uh, yeah Was ranting about it. This is one of the things that Donald Trump is actually telling the truth about One of the things yeah Now, uh, what he was wrong about my lunch, man They're eating our lunch But what he was wrong about was in I can instead of taxing them a 30 percent just don't 35 percent Just don't allow them to bring the products back into the united states bingo That's called regulation though Regulation is a bad word in in in in Washington, DC A very bad a lot of tricky a lot of tricks up their sleeve like you know the h1b Workers visa where they import people And and like like the banner said It's not that the united states does not have Qualified Employee qualified workers and professional shit. It's all Greed it's all out of greed. So what do you what do you think bringing in somebody who's going to do your job for half the Right or that's all it is or less or for free if you're in a privatized prison Who bernie sanders is against he wants to abolish privatized prisons because he knows why they're there of course Now, um, um this republican His last name is Trent I should I should rule his first name now, but but it's typical republican insanity He actually says the bible he he criticizes the the pope for not being able to interpret the bible And uh, he says he's of course, he's against the pope Telling the rich that you you must help the poor, you know, it's it's the christian thing to do blah blah blah This guy is republic in the Trent He says uh The pope doesn't understand the bible. There's nothing in the bible that says we're obligated to help the poor He couldn't be more wrong No kidding we we have uh, we have several of those uh scriptures On the first page of the newsletter every issue And I have all the and you can get hundreds of more And I and I jammed a whole lot more into the folder on our facebook group Uncensored hard-hitting truth.     It's king james not saint james And he's trying to say I know what he was getting at he was trying to say well your verses are not accurate What he's trying because henry the eighth is what some people say they say Oh, there's all kinds of bibles. No There's one with translations Right now some translations aren't that good Some are better than others and henry the eighth. It's all one henry. Henry eighth was not did not rewrite henry the eighth has nothing to do with the bible the king the king james bible number one And number two, I said to him. Well, what what bible do you recommend one of those rewritten conservative bibles. Yes. Yes. So he was an instigator. Obviously.  They're all for that. But uh, they don't understand the context of why god said to put them to death He was getting them into the Into canine with the promised land And he said that if you leave these people alive They will corrupt you And you will forget about me And you'll have your golden calves again, etc. And that's why he wanted to get rid of them Now these people that he would have got rid of You know, they're gonna have their time to be resurrected. So it's no big deal per se But you gotta understand the context god was trying to make this nation of ancient israel into a What all nations should be If he left those people there prototype a model of he left those people there.  It did anyway Anyway, um Everything we've been talking about as part of our new series called capitalism in a conch shell Capitalism in a conch shell. There's the conch feel that energy coming from king neptune You see that he has a lot of bad things to say about republicans and rightly so You see that new commercial with david haslamoff He he puts a conch up to his ear, dude Whoa They have them running from baywatch, you know doing the baywatch. Yeah with that that little buoy that little Yeah, um So katelyn jenner had a very bad car crash and somebody died a year ago. Yeah. Oh, that was a year ago. But anyway, you could go to jail well I'd like to see uh, the uh people guilty of war crimes go to prison. Uh, come on. It's why how many years already 14 years No, 2003 Seven and four eleven eleven years already They're still walking the seats I was trying to It might have been satire about, you know The banner that says Michelle obama wanted to rename One of the rooms in the white house to the obama suite and not and take the word Lincoln off of it Abraham Lincoln, it might have been satire. But anyway um people Gave their opinions and uh, you know one person was Was just, you know, once in a while you get these people that They're so passionate about defending Hillary Clinton Or Michelle Obama or Barack Obama and you know, uh, just for the sheer fact that they're Democrats and and it but they're so passionate about it like Like Nobody else Has any validity in politics except a democrat And i'm trying to tell them that the two-party system Is made up of corporatists. They have all sold out to the fat cats and uh, they're corrupt and uh Forget about it. You know, uh, I mean There are many sellout democrats now that have come at it or would work And and I mentioned the first two years obama was in office. I mean granted Barack Obama's a fantastic president wanted to find us. We ever had He he cut the deficit of the bush deficit in half um Maybe more he's done a lot of fantastic things but The first two years he was in office Democrats had control of the house and the senate and the white house and we could have had the single payer Uh, uh universal healthcare And we could have anything you want and we could have taxed the rich with the original With the original tax rate And give all the tax breaks to the middle class where it rightfully belongs But guess what that did not happen in the first two years And I said that to him. I got no wonder why I got no rebuttal. I wonder why Yeah I wonder why Uh palms were greased By the insurance companies, maybe I wonder why oh well for right now obama care. Yeah, why Why uh and all back then all I heard was from nancy polosi and and brocco bomb is Bipod citizenship compromise bipartisanship compromise and and it's like uh But they didn't need it and they were so worried about protecting the health insurance companies Who gives a rat's ass about health insurance companies? They're sleazy scum. Anyway Those who get campaigned uh contributions from them It's like wall street.  I mean, it'll meet the woods right over here. What is this now? Oh, what do you think it was? I don't know If it's he got a toy and I might have been if it's here If it's here, you must know every toy in the house Forget about everything you've heard about trickle down economics Forget it. What we have is siphon up to the top 20% economics siphon up the devil's economics No trickle Down Oh that video That says five minute video with ronald reagan that changed Everything. Well, what was he signing? I was not able to play it. Oh, you're having issues with your real player I'm having all it ain't real player. It's facebook You know what? I'm glad you said that. You know the the the glitches on facebook Never end.   I noticed that That's a trend now even in my uh my physical fitness group. There are people Who pick everyone's brains who take everyone's good ideas? And they put it into their plan They themselves and they call it their own But they never ever give kudos or credit to the plagiarism to the originator plagiarism Thank you if your stuff is not copyrighted, you know, they'll they'll They'll like a like a vulture. Yeah, so it's so if somebody, you know, I know people like that.  It's going to revolutionize the industry But they'll never give credit to to where they got it And who's they want example? Joe weder The reason why Joe weder was the master blaster Is because not because he Invented the weder system. No bob hoffman former us olympic weightlifting coach and and the owner And I think the founder of the york barbell company in new york pennsylvania We're gonna have the weightlifting hall of fame museum. He trained joe weder on the east coast Joe weder was trained by the york system by bob hoffman They even went into business together in partnership in one of the first muscle magazines on the east in the world But it was you know on the east coast then when joe weder moved To la to southern california. He denounced any affiliation with bob hoffman He did not give him credit for anything and then he came out with the weder system The master blaster Now it's plagiarism a lot of people do it Unfortunately these are like very insecure people Who have to pretend that they did something first You know a lot of them first a lot of them are um not very impressive the the plagiarists A lot of them are short of average looking men Maybe maybe there's a a a a a a masculinity problem There's a maybe a napoleonic complex. There's something core. Yes. I believe it is insecurity Because they're not impressive some of them are just lazy too The plagiarists are not like what you will call impressive dynamic looking like even biden and nlk Martin Luther King they they were accused of plagiarism during their schooling years Taking other people's words without attributing them There's nothing shameful about giving tribute to the source Of your knowledge or just surround them with quotes for god's sakes That's all what is wrong with telling people who said what?  I mean, I mean as far as their work goes they could be geniuses But if you get to know one personally and share an apartment with him, you know, you it'll destroy Your opinion of them. There are a lot of weird wacky eccentric geniuses out there Uh one of which has the initials g in And I will leave it there anyway, let us sink our teeth Into these readings and we have A lot of extra readings From the past couple weeks At the same amount No, we don't yes. No, we don't because we had a big argument last time Yeah, and we didn't get a chance to cover to cover the material The material must be covered the materials are current events And they grow stale Well, we don't want we we want universal topics. We don't want sometimes johnny come lately ham and egg You know sometimes but most times we have to deal with current events Okay, shoot Show bernie sanders surging Close behind hillary clinton In the race for the democratic nomination. I thought he surpassed No, not yet. Well, then people are uh, There's a little wishful thinking on on the internet then Yet clinton continues to receive almost all publicity no Almost all publicly made endorsements from the elected democrats And you can only you can take a wild guess and I bet you'll be right Why? The growing of popularity of sanders Shows there are clear doubts over clinton's authenticity And commitment to progressive ideals She's a corporatist. She's in bed with monsanto Maybe more One would expect this to be mirrored in at least some minor fashion With similar variants in opinion among the establishment Members elected by these very sane hesitant constituents How do we account for such a wide gap In sentiment between party constituents and their elected officials It would seem to be a case of pragmatic politicians playing calculated odds at the expense of democratic ideas But since when Has placing all your eggs in one basket triumphed As an effective strategy especially Considering a primary candidate who is prone to scandals U.S. Senator Cory Booker Democrat of New Jersey has endorsed clinton Well, Cory Booker when he was mayor of newark he schmoozed with uh It's corporatist people He's not it's progressive as you might think Democrats are encouraged to reach out To u.s. Senator bob menendez Democrat, new jersey and the state six Democratic members of congress and advise them to fully consider the will of their constituents the ascendancy of sanders and the vulnerability of a one candidate let me tell you something Regardless if this person who wrote this is pro clinton I might as well throw them into it No, they're not. That's what they're saying. We should not put all of our eggs in one basket This is proof that those people that present to you documentary videos about The new world order and all this stuff Let me tell you something democratic party May may very well be the other side of the same coin Corporatists, you know and that includes uh I'm not totally uh convinced. Yeah, I don't have enough evidence, but um people like Cory Booker Robert Menendez uh All of the career politician Democrats Could very well all be corporatists Not as bad as republicans, but for the second time in two years Governor Christie of new jersey recently vetoed a key civil rights bill What else is not One which would have enabled me And other transgender new jerseyans to correct our birth certificates Yeah, but without need for painful Expensive And sometimes unwanted Surgeon, uh, correct your birth certificate.  You were born a male. You decided to change your gender much later in life But what if they had the two organs Are you mean homophrodite? Yeah Well, that's a toss-up, right? Well, yeah, no, right. They it's how they how they How they feel about themselves Okay, well, how do they feel like a female how they feel here we go the pandering Not you per se, but this is a um a Ultra left kumbaya a pandering uh, oh, I feel so sorry for them. Listen Oh, I said how they feel about themselves. What about physical? I feel male. What about physiologically? I feel female What about having a hormonal test? How about proving that you're more female than a male?  They want to be female And they take a test and they have more estrogen. What are you going to say that and they're they're they're They're a female trapped in a man's body. Yeah, that's what they're saying. Okay, so let us change our birth certificates We're no longer males. We're females like Caitlyn she's a female as a result The illegal status of my gender remains up in the air And I am at risk for bureaucratic flagging travel concerns and Even possible health care coverage denial Christie says enactment of this bill opens the door for fraud and confusion health care coverage denial I'm trying to understand how How one could be turned down how a transgender can be turned down for health care uh Health companies turn turn people down every single day Any excuse they want you see there lies the problem No kidding. Any excuse without regulation You're gonna have these problems. Oh speaking of at any excuse they want I forgot to mention what billy morrow said about the The situation that I was going to talk about the uh accurate dealer with it without the spare tire in the donut Billy morrow says, uh, oh, I wouldn't I wouldn't talk about I wouldn't mention it. I says why They got screwed Billy morrow says, well, I wouldn't say they got screwed What did they get I said, well, what is your take on it? They didn't get screwed Then then what do you think happened? Oh, the the company corporation has just changed your policy. That's that's just the way it is. It's company policy I says, well, billy that doesn't companies aren't in charge So billy I said that doesn't make it ethical just because the company changes policy Oh, well, that's how they decided to do things now. I says well, that doesn't make it right Who's the boss in this country the company or me now do you see you see It you notice the right wing tendencies coming from Well, it's not a right way. It's not right wing tendencies. It's tendencies that they don't understand who is in charge just the same thing when You got to understand you need to change the system because corporations and oligarchs are in charge right now This is my country. Yeah, I'm in charge That's the way it is because it's new big. Oh, it's not the way it is. It's new company policy Well, what makes you think because a corporation decided on a policy To change its stance. I'd what what makes you think it's right. Yeah or ethical Yeah, or should be in the power to do that. This is our commercial voiceover artist William Hamilton more of the third his father was a big wig IBM executive A career executive for his whole life and he doesn't understand how the system has been corrupt Yeah, no kind of an answer me change. What kind of an answer is that? Oh, that's the company policy now that they Who cares? Well, can you fly to the company? Yeah, it puts the company in charge. That's correct but The state motor vehicle commission Already allows for gender change amendments to driver's licenses What could be more confusing or more dangerous than one person? carrying two mismatched government documents Transgender people are not criminals or frauds We are ordinary citizens requesting some degree of control over our own vital records three days After issuing his veto The governor appeared on a national radio show and let his true colors show Describing our desire to live happily in our own skin as beyond the pale What do you what did you expect from a from a conservative republican? I mean, of course they they're going to show their true colors. I mean And stating that it doesn't make any sense to me And that's why I vetoed it This veto was a prejudicial act On the part of our governor doesn't make sense to him to him But they think they're in charge because this is a christian nation. Well, they believe you they believe in Fascist dictatorships. They believe it. They're their perception on that. You're no good.  You're not getting married because I said so because you're no good It's like it's like Their way of the highway. It's not like negotiate. They had their way once in america. It was called Jim Crow along Right. They want to bring it back before the civil rights act of 1965 Right. They had all this stuff We got rid of it. They used to have slavery We got rid of it We didn't like Okay, I encourage our legislators Especially primary sponsors like senator joseph vitally Vitally democrat of middle six county An assemblywoman valerie of venerate huddle Very democratic angle would valerie venereal disease venery of venery to pursue You know what to pursue an override Of the governor's veto i'm moving my bells And it's so doing ensure that our great state remains As it has long been a welcoming And just place for all, you know when it comes to politics and campaigning. Why is every state the great state? The great state of pennsylvania the great state of ohio The great state of ohio and they are how we do how it goes out that great state of ohio How can everybody be great?

I had a uh, um a talk With the general manager of our local post office the united states post office And they are They are not privatized Yet and there is no plan In the near future as he knows to be privatized, but That of course can change With the republicans controlling the congress and the senate, but it is still Good old uncle sam that controls and owns Our post office.   I heard really somewhere um What doesn't surprise me it's it's it's the it's the american way of doing business And they actually think the masses are just going to accept No benefits and cheap pay and and take it calmly Take it on the chin man. Take it on the chin. They really think so. Yeah all these rotten people They must have a lot of bodyguards because I never hear about any of any of them getting worked over or shot or anything You know all these famous These famous they have bodyguards evil people that we talk about every week.

For residential race on june the 30th Has been spending increasingly more time outside new jersey as he seeks the nomination The lawsuit was filed by new jersey working families Blue wave new jersey And new jersey citizen action all progressive grassroots political advocacy organizations Chris christy cannot be allowed to run for president On the dime of new jersey taxpayers I agree If governor christy wants to continue his quiotic Campaign he should pay for it From his own campaign coffers Instead of forcing hard-working taxpayers to foot the bill Yeah, but then he doesn't have any money to help the poor You know for planned parenthood or anything like that Chris do you lots money to help the poor?  But they're like that that that politician, uh, mr. Trent They're not obligated to help the poor No, he said god That's even worse. Yeah, exactly the bible god doesn't want you to help the poor Yeah, well, maybe Maybe the other god that g.w. Bush used to talk to you mean satan satan doesn't want you to help the poor But not the god of the bible Last year new jersey working families filed an ethics complaint against david samson Who was then the chairman of the port authority board? Alleging that he had misused The position to benefit clients of his private law firm Samson who was appointed by christy And has been a close confidant of the governors resigned from that post And has since retired from his law firm the lawsuit against christy which was filed in superior court In mercer county Alleges that a representative Of the governor's office was involved In securing a public facility livingston high school For the governor's campaign kickoff event Several employees in the governor's office volunteered to staff that event We've already made clear that there was no government time Used for campaign purposes said sam smith A spokeswoman For christy's campaign when asked to comment on the lawsuit Asked to comment on the campaign's decision Not to reimburse the state For the cost of christy's security detail on political trips Smith said christy is following the same policy As other new jersey governors when they traveled outside the state She also provided a comment christy made when asked about security costs by the record Our local newspaper His first week on the campaign trail as an official candidate in new hamshire last month. He said in the end Anywhere i go The troopers need to go Whether i want them to Or not Yeah, so if they need to go because Don't like him he needs to pay for them out of his own pocket So we are going to continue to conduct this in the same way i've always conducted yeah by by by Sticking by sticking the bill to somebody else Right the bills for christy's security details for the first quarter of this year are the most recent available The governor's office submits a memorandum to the state police every few months Seeking reimbursement for travel related costs Including hotel stays transportation And meals Well, there's a big island ain't there And they're probably that's probably just as expensive as hiring security Chris christy's meals Levity bills Those costs are not broken out on the bills and the state Has declined to release that specific information meals saying it could disclose how many state troopers are with the governor Which could compromise his security and you and it's obvious christ christy has not missed many meals in his life From february 2010 Christy's first full month in office Through march of this year Tax for excuse me have paid 1.34 million dollars for travel related Security cards some of the biggest bills were submitted last year when christy traveled the country Visiting 36 states and washington dc as chairman of the republican governors association so Christy the emperor Victator chris chris christy Feels that uh anything he does personally he should not have to pay for Yeah Or politically because um He thinks very highly of himself or he's just that selfish well You mean you have two choices You're giving me two choices I only need one I mean, uh, they they reelected him too in new jersey That's the most mind-boggling part of this whole thing.   I said nathan's only joking around he said He's talking about the ceo being a job creator the um See it might have been in response to Trent The Trent comedy in other words he had to do it. No was ceo pay It was ceo pay like uh mcdonalds. I don't know double their triple their ceo's pay You know at the expense of everyone else, of course and uh, you know and then nathan said something like Yeah, but all those jobs that those ceos are creating Uh, yeah bookkeepers and uh, cp. What's a What's a cp cp cp something? Yeah Get a figure to figure out how much more money you can screw out of the corporation. Yeah, and they always blame They blame everything on the stockholders You know, uh, the stockholders have nothing to do. We control it a company not No, because a stockholder is one that invests By purchasing in common stocks a common stock is speculative It's not supposed to be a sure thing And that's what trump said the other day with the people to invest in his Real estate adventures and stuff that these people are killers. He said No, they're not little babies like you're thinking of them.  They come first That'll be good. But that's not the case. So uh, yeah, well, they're just uh, what I call them a Paper pushing blood-sucking parasite, basically. Well, if you ever see the mo the movie Tucker The man in his dream or whatever it is It shows you what the board of directors and stuff Are for companies, you know, I mean nothing but figurehead crap And stuff like that you know like the twilight zone episode when uh Richard deacon I guess actor character actor the late Richard deacon played President of the company and he's walking around to twirling his pocket watch firing people Laying people off and blah blah blah and then at the end Robbie the robot you saw him Uh twirling the pocket watch he replaced Richard deacon. They replaced him with a robot. So he got replaced Way ahead of his time that rod sir Oh, yeah, August Is like a secret play land For a boy with an imagination And a disdain for school That was that was me. I think most kids are like that I was that boy 54 years ago when I was 10 years old Immune to humidity Eager to chase as many adventures as possible Yeah Knowing that summer would inevitably end And I would once again be confined to a cold september school desk, you know something I don't know about cold I found uh the beginning of september After labor day weekend to be very depressing as a child because Summer vacation was over The morning of the praying mantis. Ah, yes the praying mantis. Let me salute the praying mantis The praying mantis began with my usual mug of ovaltine Oh, you mean the sugar laden american version or the no sugar Uh, uh, european version and a glass of orange juice And i'm serious about what I just said I checked my pocket for my magnifying glass My piece of bazooka bubblegum My dime-sized cupice And the dollar I always kept in uh in case the ice cream truck drove by I used to get the bubblegum and the baseball cards Yeah, bazooka only had the uh cartoon tops You know Yeah, like in the newspapers. Yeah Yeah, in bazooka. Yeah, you you with bazooka you pretty much got the bubblegum I mean i'm not into gum now, but I used to get the the flat Piece that was shaped like a card. I used to get it with the baseball cards You know man, I had so many collectibles if I still had them today rookie cards And and they all were thrown out Not by me though, but If I only had them The house where I grew up Was a three-story american four square sided with cedar shingles Filled with the clamor of my five brothers and sisters The aroma of my mother's big bread And the sound of my father rustling the newspaper and the toilet bowl Mine was an ordinary american childhood blessed with the victory of world war two Both my parents cheered the american and british troops As they were liberated in belgium from nazi occupation in 1945 I was born in the stability of financial security In a house filled with books With parents who left my sisters and brothers and me With the freedom to read to play And imagine As we chose during those hot memorable summers of so long ago Like the old song good old summertime Lazy hazy crazy days of summer at the breakfast It was my habit to grab my davy crocket concoined skin cap I didn't have that And rush outside to see what I could find A frog In a small pond at the edge of the woods A salamander under the rocks along the summer stream That's when those creatures existed In the residential area I used to find all that All those things I had toads and green garter snakes in the backyard I had I had all kind I mean and then all of a sudden When the when the waterways Got polluted Which is where this life Needed and needed to be near you know to reproduce all those creatures Vanished A bird's nest In the muck Orange brushes remember all the cicadas when we had a hot summer we got them now Don't you hear them out there deafening deafening sound? They're out there now 17 years Whatever it is I developed an early affection for animals And bugs I felt like James Henry Trotter In Raul Dahl's famous book James and the Giant Peach James enjoyed his adventures with a grasshopper Centipede And earthworm Mine began With the praying mantis if centipedes creep me out. I see them around here They get in the house sometimes They're they'll bite you man. They they have venom, but they're not dangerous You know, it's not like the tropical giant centipedes, but we have them sometimes they come up the pipe They come I see them come right through the crack at the front door Into the living room and then I I I I made a loud noise and I went like this with my hand and went right back out You know I had never seen A praying mantis before And as I walked past a rhododendron bush is my favorite stared in the direction of the large rock That looked like the back of the giant turtle I saw what appeared to be a grasshopper That's another thing we used to have as a kid box turtles It's like looks like a tortoise. We used to wood turtles that there was a it was teaming with life at one time But of course The closer I walked toward the creature The bigger it seemed to grow to my surprise When I leaned down The insect didn't jump away No, they look right at you man. You remember the praying mantis. It's on video that I found here On on the lamp. I picked it up. I had no problem with them. They're great. They're I think they're smart But stood on its four legs reared up in emotionless position That did indeed look like it was praying Well, they yeah, they're they're they're stalking they're praying I pulled out my plastic magnifying glass from my pocket closed one eye As all good boy scientists do and examined my new found monster Oh, they're ravenous Along with the antennas on its head It had two Horrifying eyes. All right. Is this have a white apart? Is this does this story have a punch line or a or a moral to be learned or I thought you were going through it Things are not like they used to be Well, yeah, but it's not it's not what you would call hard hitting truth reading You know what I mean like hard hitting truth things are not like they used no They're not like is that not hard hitting enough? Yeah, it is you're right. Thank you Bells for dr. Bell not bells for same area The eyes were wide apart Like a space creature from the movie screen. That's what they look like.  It had two ugly spiked arms Hey, it's lower body. It looked like a fierce hornet.  He wants jiminy cricket to do a dance with a top hat and a cane Singing uh, if you wish a palm star, what does he want this kid? I felt Like a brave davey crooked This kid's doing a bug this kid's not annoying me man Until the bug suddenly sprang at me I was springing them too I didn't know it had wings Oh jackass I didn't know it could fly I didn't know poor mccartney had wings at one time, right? It's a praying mantis Could inject poisonous venom into the neck No, no, we cannot inject poisonous venom maybe uh a big female spider has a big web Could inject poisonous venom into the neck of a fraudulent mountain man king of wild frontier I wish it did have venom.   He's a kid, right? Not anymore. It's got an imagination. He's an editorial writer right now. Oh in a panic I told my father what I found And he gave me a small paperback book on insects. Let me tell you something Well, that's what happened to me. I had I was given books And I and I and I used to uh My grandfather used to subscribe to national geographic and I used to oh and you look them all unblocked breasts bouncing around in those african ladies bouncing around Come on. Come on admit it. There were other articles there too. Oh, yeah Sure, but uh, you know, I mean I read the articles at hustling, you know Well, because they're the larry flint is uh, is a very is a smart man He's very politically involved in a progressive way But you know, I wrote by the house. I grew up in Everything seems so much smaller The world was so huge What else a kid? My dad sat down with me on the couch And read allow the attributes of the praying mantis. I learned that they eat bugs And their mates Yeah, the male is puny like like with spiders the female is huge and the male is skinny and puny and small And their only function is to mate and run But even if they run bill Even if they escape their lifespan is naturally short Compared or the next time they want to mate They become may have been lucky that time they become food for the for the uh for the nymphs the for the offspring But even if they are lucky to escape males male spiders Mantises do not have a long lifespan. They they compared to the female. They just have a pathetic life Yeah, because that's what they're that's what they're Yeah, worse than their job in life worse than human men of today. They have a much more pathetic life I mean like that The seal the other day Yeah, I was lucky to get away from that great white But that don't always happen No, because the great white usually loses the great whites or um They're maybe they may be fish, but they learn how to hunt seals from underneath they can crash in from underneath Without warning Anyway to repeat I learned that they eat bugs and their mates but not 10 year old boys When I told my mother about this giant insect I found in the yard She told me that in Africa It was considered long ago to be a god A mantis see I'm just learning this now A deity The word mantis is from the greek meaning profit Oh, that's where the word praying comes from maybe praying mantis mantis mantis Brain profit mantid the the species is collectively called mantid mantis So the mantis is a greek word meaning profit Interesting when I tried to convince my brothers that I found a dragon they looked at me and they laughed That's september I was back in school learning about fractions Diagramming sentences being forced to twist my premmonship into the standard stilted loops of the palmer method August is a time for children to sit on the back porch and spit out watermelon seeds A time to swim Build tree tree forts play stick ball climb trees and look for frogs But then as the song By the folk rock group the bird says Turn turn turn seasons The calendar quickly turns to reveal the month of september. Hey, autumn's a beautiful season to me The boy is suddenly shackled to a desk The boy becomes a man And the man still imagines What it might have been like If he had hopped on to the back Of the praying mantis As they word up Into the magical air of august heat In pursuit Of the ice cream truck This person must have been really hitting the bottle big time or high on something or It's very miserable in his existence Despite his despite his career certainly Very nostalgic For the old days now to want the desire to hop on the back Of a wing a giant winged A creature means that he might have a desire to escape something and fly away from something They did it they did it in the movie avatar I'm trying to look at it from a psychologist's point of view. They were riding on the dragons He wants to Hop on the back of a winged creature Which means he wants to fly away from the life he knows You know without reading too much into the boring life he's living now Yeah, it's almost um It's almost like a twilight zone episode Yeah, I could dig it man. I could dig it. I could dig it We'll give it some bells How are we doing for time? Probably not good. This is the last one. Yeah, I guess. Okay last one Mayor build the blasio of new york Great has launched a multi agency task force To address what he calls the growing problem Of panhandling topless women and costume characters in time square Um topless women have been walking around time square For a woman to be topless. Gee something exciting for uh for tourists visiting new york city now Mr. De Blasio Interest does not like it Look, even if you're a man If you're in a a such a congested busy part of new york city Where where there is a tourist and Broadway shows And and theater and restaurants and cafes and blah blah blah and lights everywhere Even for a man to walk around Without a shirt is inappropriate a tire Now a woman She's looking for trouble. I know she can legally do it But And I know the breast is Well She it's a business. She's looking for mula Who's looking for mula? These women and the costume characters in time square women are bookers They are looking for money. You can have your picture taken with them with the topless girl Oh, they're trying to turn. Oh a little a little scam going on here capitalism my friend panhand a legalized uh a glorified panhandling Uh, uh, uh with a gimmick Looking for to make money off of there that this is see this is why I always get into arguments on my fitness school It's like um people take An ancient martial art with ancient Warrior exercises with a with a a way of life Like all martial arts a way of life and a specific mentality that goes with That uh, uh craft if you want to call it that And these people just take all this that's supposed to be based on humility and giving And they take it and they try to make a a a money-making enterprise out of it They capitalize they exploit it they charge high amounts of money to go to their seminars and workshops and and and they They they manufacture overpriced exercise tools From this ancient system this ancient martial art system And it just it just infuriates me how people Take every friggin thing in existence in life and exploit and Exploit it into a money-making venture capitalism Yeah, everything's about money with capitalism Meanwhile, mr. De Blasio said Freddie Blasio that one option under consideration Is removing the famed Intersections pedestrian plazas Yeah, but what about how are the tourists gonna like kind of stop and take pictures The plazas are popular with tourists theater-goers and office workers Who throw time square daily? And are a signature accomplishment of De Blasio's predecessor michael Make them Listen to me make mr. De Blasio mr.  I mean bill de Blasio Listen to me make these pan handlers purchase A and and monthly or an annual permit Make them pay just like a street Performers have to buy a permit 40 dollars a day to perform with their musical instrument on the streets of new york For money. They have to get a permit. They probably do have that because they none of them were arrested um Uh, and they don't arrest street performers permanent. They don't arrest the batman and spider-man costume That guy the cowboy that's out in the winter time with a little g string or so They must have some sort of license or whatever You make you you're making money off of first of all You have uh for a any business whether it be panhandling or not You're You're taking advantage of the fact that new york That manhattan has the traffic of bodies going back and forth day and night and tourists tourist Okay now That's why the rents are so high if you open up now If you open up a business in a shopping mall The rents are very high because they give you the traffic New york and manhattan provides you with the traffic Businesses restaurants. I'm sure office space cost the fortune in midtown manhattan So you're there making money hand over a fist You know and and let me tell you something Panhandling donations and anybody working on tips If you have the right gimmick you can make a lot of money on gratuities So these people these topless girls and these people With you know, who's playing a jug in a washboard and you know, who's playing who's playing harmonica who's you know Playing a little jazz on a on a trumpet and the and the girl that just stands there with her breasts hanging out Should purchase permits That's it As I say they must have some Or they would have arrested Okay, so they must have some perfection already They have been hailed by urban planners as an innovation in city design But the popular spots have also become favored stomping rounds for aggressive panhandlers Dressed as characters like Elmo And Batman And more recently for topless women wearing body paint And thongs and seeking money to pose for photographs. Oh, they're wearing a thong too also pan the topless Don't see what's next total nudity in Times Square The painted ladies presence Has become a tabloid sensation During the sleepy end of summer With editorial pages warning that they foreshadow a return to Times Square's seedy I'm sure mr. Giuliani Clean it all up. Oh, yeah the peep the peep shows. Yeah The um Yeah, the adult district. Yeah He chased he chased them to another area I don't think it's appropriate in one of the busiest squares In new york city for women to display themselves that way mr. De Blasio said But the mayor acknowledges that because both public toplessness And panhandling are legal in new york The city's immediate recourse is limited He has suggested that because the women are engaging in a business transaction. They should be subject to city regulation So he commissioned a task force led by police commissioner william bratton And city planning commissioner carl rise broad to explore other options Among the women who accept tips for their photos ciara nicole Doesn't believe the practice should be an issue People are having fun Sure, she's making money doing it. There's no problem. She said buy a part have her buy a permit Another angel bunting said She doesn't aggressively pan in isn't that a bird or bunting This bunting is uh, you know when the firemen or policemen died and they put up that black purple Cloth like crescent shape. Yeah, that's one thing You know on a like a political Table yeah, they have the tablecloth. Yeah, one thing. I mean that red light and blue a french thing Some of the girls Are maybe a little more aggressive But we do not work that way We wouldn't want somebody touching us We also wouldn't want somebody touching our child. Absolutely not They're asking for trouble.   It was he said How was it Probably was the dirt The dirt road We just have just have streets inside walks. I mean When he says pedestrian plaza, is it like a like a like a little mini park or clearing? It's a yeah It's a it's a area where cars don't go and people just like hanging out there. Yeah, they walk What about downtown? Downtown hacky sack yeah, mainstream the Pedestrian, what's wrong? There's no cars allowed there No, no, I mean street. I could say doesn't have that. Yeah, main street No, main street now main street now or you haven't been to mainstream in a long time Main street now Is not a ghost town anymore. It's it's all filled up with restaurants and cafes and stores But that's that's not cars there. That's that's been walking there. There's Oh, just one street One street has this little mini mini park near the courthouse. Oh, that's down Hudson's street there That's going towards the army navy stores going towards Hudson, but that's just one itty-bitty little area Most of it is just sidewalk and stream, you know a little bit up north. It's all pedestrian walkway Anyway, any things have changed I'm sure they have Like I said, it used to be a ghost town no longer Which is good for the city I don't know I don't know well, it's good for businesses because Honestly, I don't know what they pay I know I know in in suburban Bergen County the rents and the leases for having a store are astronomical Totally totally insane I mean, how many look how many customers you need Just to break the even and pay the rent on your store Well, it used to be that one One of one person in the family earns a living Could have supported a family in a car and a house and et cetera Now even two people doing that cannot do it. Well, imagine what it's going to cost with these rents in new york And in places like bergen county Oh, they they cut the uh, you need four or five people to share the rent They cut the studio apartments in half in Manhattan New york city in manhattan they cut them in half.  It's it's a you know, this this concept of supply and demand is really not very like ethical because Okay, capitalism is not you have the supply And then just because the demand goes up It gives the supplier an excuse to raise the price to gouge To price gouge and rip off The consumer you saw what happened in katrina with bottles of water Perfect example bingo in other words instead of humanitarian Individuals giving things to the hurricane katrina victims somebody decided to sell things Humanitarian's don't make money But you have to make fools so you have to so you have to make money and exploit people that are in A crisis. Yeah people that are in need iron rand. You have to make money off of them That's the iron rand philosophy Well iron rand Must have had uh, did she have a lot of bodyguards too? No, she did not so nobody kicked her out. She had a lot of Influential friends such as alan green span and etc Coming to her apartment every week for a meeting no Empathy or compassion whatsoever. Dude, that is a weakness That shows a weakness upon yourself word about greed. Is that is that a strong point exactly according to her exactly self interest Yeah, so she uh, so everything everything is like totally about self Correct me me. Give me. Give me grab take take take and not give that's right Very short arms very deep pockets That's what alan greenspan said. He said he didn't understand He was shocked When his philosophy of life blew up in his face He didn't think that these people on wall street Who uh, you know Were in it for their own interests would do such things Oh really?  He looked at the cheshire cat Didn't say a word and then when he did say something he changed the subject Oh how appropriate Didn't say a word well, I have a feeling that a lot of people On capitol hill Would just let bernie talk and not say a word because they have no defense Against the real truth. They have no defense and if if it doesn't get out He won't get to the general public And they'll be okay Well, if they if they try to rebuttal And debate bernie, they will look like fools They will look worse and then it will get out to the media Because the media will love Fight because because the media will say bernie sanders destroys a half a dozen Uh republicans in a debate. He he demolishes them. He makes them look ridiculous And that's what would happen because the republicans will end up doing ralph crampton Because they have no come back no proven Cold hard facts scientific comeback. There there is no there's nothing nothing substantial in in the in the debating Well, unfortunately of a republican their supporters do not require that You see the supporters will always say I'm a poor slob. I'm on snap. I'm busy anything but I voted for a republican Because those mill billionaires need tax cuts Remember i'm glad you brought this up remember the video the rather long video of uh when bernie sanders recently Entered the home of a louisiana family. It wouldn't play for me And it was on youtube too. I know and it was a louisiana family And they and they claimed it was the reason why the camera person sucked because I The camera person really really really was a retard And people that knew the family and people that were there in person says that the reason why But there's there's no excuse for the camera person Going towards the ceiling or taking A video of somebody's back you say excuse me Move aside, please. We've got the can't you're blocking the camera Or the person should have the common sense and courtesy to do it by themselves I think he's going up. He's going down by the floor. He's going up to the ceiling. All right. Anyway, aside from that She says they had 70 people and it was packed Bernie Sanders was allowing a lot of people to talk and a lot of great points were made He is doing this on purpose. He is visiting the red states and talking to the The folks in the red states because he wants To see how they feel and he wants to talk to them because he feels I guess he feels like If he visits a progressive person's house in the northeast They're all going to just love them and offer them food and dessert and then everything's going to be hunky-dory, but He's more needed in a red state Family's house. He I guess he feels the challenge is good for his campaign So it came up that a person was saying look The subject was why Do people in in the south and out west in red states? Why do four people? low-income people always Continue to vote republicans and and the person was saying Two people I think were saying See the problem here in the south is that We are multi generation republicans Okay, our fathers our grandparents and I'll be honest with you We we vote the same because we're afraid of change We're afraid of going with something that is different And that and that's that that's a flaw. That's that's a human flaw Fear is what causes us To continue to vote republican when we don't have a pot to piss in Fear of something different. I guess fear of the unknown So bernie appreciated that answer He did actually he's doing quite well Talking to these people in these states He's really better than expected. But anyway, I just wanted to hopefully you'll get to see the video and of course That's it Fear of change fear of going with something completely different than what you grew up with That's to consider that at mindset They they they grew up a certain way They're locked in they're afraid to break out of them like a this friend of mine who Is Voting for ben Carson. Oh gosh and Because he's a republican to stand the other And what he was saying was that he was talking as if Ben Carson is a republican of the old strike Before before the change when the Dixie grats became You know when the republicans became Dixie, you know when they change When democrats and republicans change but has ben Carson come up with any solutions Ben Carson doesn't even know the constitution And and this boob Number two or number three or number four in the polls. Yeah, but look at the clown bus It's very it's it's easy to understand why a donald trump and a ben Carson would excel look at their competition Yeah, well the point is though that they they they are excelling But they're excelling by people who actually won't vote for them These people because if you really look at them they are selling change Both of them Yes And and of course bernie actual conservative don't like that and of course bernie's selling the greatest change of law law He's a socialist Come on man. I know you do come on man. What's wrong? I'll I'll I'll say the same thing bernie said once. What's wrong with socialism? Nothing. I like it It's very it's very fair Nothing's wrong with socialism.   Are you really happy with your life? Well, if you're not happy with it, maybe it's time for a big change But capitalism with so many people up Oh It does. Yeah, really? Oh, yeah That's what uh, that's what uh, uh, all of our economic system is that that's what a teabagger would would say and I know a few of them They say, uh, oh, yeah, you know, uh, they I know previous is all my father started off with nothing. Uh, he didn't have two nickels to rub the guy.  We're hey Working the only way you make it Is if you get big breaks in life But why is it the mindset that we should be working For the man You'll never what happened to the mindset That we should be working For ourselves. That's what it should be. Correct. You should own your way of making a living You should have control over your life The way it was before the industrial revolution you should have control of you. Yeah, that's called freedom, isn't it? Yeah You shouldn't have to Be price gouge, uh with your with groceries. I mean the groceries Food it's insane What families end up spending when they go shopping It's the man you're you're you're you're enslaved to the man To the man corporations Your job shopping and they just accept it as if it's the You know been going on forever. It's the way things don't it's like what billy morrow says are there? Well, it's the policy. It's the company policy. Yes. Oh, and we should accept. Oh, it's company. So what does that mean? It's company policy Uh, what does that mean? Does that does that mean it's right? Does that mean it's fair? Does that mean it's ethical? So what does that mean? Oh, that's the way it is Well, it is the way it is because the the CEO of the companies Well, we want to change that don't we? Yeah, well, I mean I wouldn't put a pass To the sleazy american car dealers that owned the dealership.  They're making money by screwing you. Yeah They're saving money by not giving it to you.   Oh, you put it away. I put it away. It is all siphoning up, baby Brother it is the devil's economics without a shadow of a doubt capitalism is the devil's economics Go bernie sanders and on that note So long Take care of that. No, we're going. Why did I say so long? Is that the the song? Have to do the porno industry So long the porno industry, you know didn't exist in these terms. Hey, what about dugger? They said he Idiot, what about on the newspaper? It says he'll he'll have no trouble finding a footlong A footlong in prison where he's going now. He you know what? He'll never have that trouble finding forgive Was he one of those family values conservatives? Absolutely.  He did listen I always say the people who scream who shout the loudest and brag The loudest and are obnoxious about You know telling you how to live your life They have more skeletons in their closet than the quiet people the people that are the loudest You'll see All right, just have to have their day. That's all. That's it. That's it. All right Say speaking of so long say so long to these drabronies so long This has been a mega life 21 production


Think Tech Hawaii. Civil engagement lives here. And we're live. Welcome to our new episode of Young Talent's Making Way here on Think Tech Hawaii. Every week we talk about things that matter to Hawaii and we do this with our brilliant school students and their science project. Now, last week we talked about this. Well, we didn't talk about my lunchbox here, but we talked about plastics and its impact that is making to our environment and our oceans. Today we want to continue to talk about plastics. And we have a guest joining us today, Zoe Dawn from Stevenson Middle School. And nice to have you here. Welcome to the show. Welcome.  She's the second place winner of the State of Hawaii Science and Engineering Fair Junior Division. That's right. That's right. Welcome to the show. Welcome. And so plastics. And we were chatting a little bit before our show and you mentioned the plastic era. We're living in a plastic era. What does it mean? So the plastic era is basically our this century. We have been increasingly producing plastics and it has been becoming a substantial thing that we use in our daily lives. And we're depending on this plastic for everything from our studio right here. We have many plastics in our room right now to schools, to hospitals, to a lot of different places. And using the plastic, we don't realize how much we're discarding after we use it. And we're not going through a process that is able to discard these plastics because plastics itself, they take millions, actually thousands of years, excuse me, thousands of years to just go under the soil. And after they're under the soil, their molecular structure is still present, meaning they're not completely destroyed and they're still there. And plastic is very harmful for our environment. And us humans making these plastics is harming our planet in a way that we don't know how to solve yet. And my project, which is Mancham Plastic, we use worms to digest these plastics, to have a eco-friendly solution to dispose these plastics using natural things like waxworms and mealworms. It's amazing to see that our students here in Hawaii so prepared and so brilliant. Maybe let's have our first slide up so we can see. We can see. Okay. So basically, you send me a figure when you came here. Basically, the amount of plastic waste which is produced in the US is about 33.6 million tons per year. What happens to this waste? So, as you can see on the diagram, this is plastic waste. And then on the side, at first, only 6.5 is recycled, which is plastic bottles or like other plastic that is able to be recycled. The one we throw in the recycling box. But then not a lot of people recycle and not a lot of people go through this process. And then the rest of it, which is 7.7% is used for electricity production. But that's only some type of plastics that is able to be burned into electricity production. So we burn it, we make heat and then we can produce electricity. Yeah. But then the rest of that 33.6 million tons goes into our planet and goes into our oceans, goes into landfills and then slowly they sink down and then they cause harm to our planet. And then, and so basically, your science project you mentioned is trying to find a solution for decomposing and recycling this plastic. Yes. So maybe let's see our next picture here so we can have a look. Oh, wow. I remember when my, when my grandfather was going fishing. Yeah. So actually, waxworms are actually used in fish bait. So they are used for fishermen by it from companies. And then they use it to fish for fish. But then in this case here, I took waxworms and I just I used research from Stanford University. Originally, they found that waxworms have the ability to digest polyethylene, which is plastic bags. Yeah. The basic polymer used in making plastic bags. And then on the other side, we have mealworms, which is used for pet food.  But then in this case, I took mealworms and from the Institute of Biomedical and Biotechnology of Cantabria, a Spanish professor. Oh, excuse me. It's the other way around. Oh, the Spanish professor experimented with waxworms and Stanford University experimented with mealworms. Yeah. So how did you, so this is what you did for your science project at the state of Hawaii Science and Engineering here. Yes. How did you get interested at Stevenson Middle School about this big problem that we're facing? Yes. So Hawaii has recently had its plastic ban, and which meant that we were producing too much plastic bags and we were disposing too much of it. And recently they took a bill and they said that we can only use recyclable bags once with fabric or like reusable plastic. So then I was wondering why we were, we needed to have this bill. And I didn't realize that how much plastic we were having in our world. And after research, I was able to find the articles about mealworms and waxworms. And then it just got me started on how to design my own experiment to see how waxworms and mealworms can digest these plastics. Where did you get these worms? So at first Petco was out of the worms. So apparently I was in the fair actually, and then a judge told me that a senior division project had was working with mealworms and waxworms too. And I was like, he took all my worms. That's why they were out of it. So I had to go online to order from another company in California. And then they shipped me the worms after like three weeks. Wow, I didn't know we could buy worms online. Yeah. Yeah. So let's have your next slide up so we can see actually what you did. So okay, can you tell me what this is? So actually the polystyrene is the one on the right. Yeah, that is styrofoam. And styrofoam is used in takeout containers or styrofoam cups or styrofoam plates. We use it every day. So this is material that we use every day. And the other one is the plastic bags that we use. So we use it for grocery shopping or like carrying things. And because of our increase in using these items, there's been a problem which is plastic pollution. Yeah. Yeah. So these are the, if you want the ingredients of your science project, right? Yeah. So what did you do with them? So using my worms, I have the waxworms and the mealworms. The waxworms, I introduced them to polyethylene and polystyrene. And then the same with the mealworms. At first, through my research, I found that the waxworms are only able to digest polyethylene, which is plastic bags. So you basically, you put them together, the plastic material with the worms as well, the two species. Yes. And I believe we have a picture about this. Yes. Let us see. Oh, okay. So this is the container you used. Yeah. Okay. So it's a Petri dish. Inside the Petri dish, there's polystyrene, which is styrofoam. And then there's waxworms and mealworms. Yeah. We're looking at the two species. Yeah. Yeah. And in this Petri dish, I have 20 worms, 10 waxworms and 10 mealworms. And then I have 3000 milligrams of polystyrene and 1000 milligrams of moisture. So what I did was, after I found out the similarities in the bacteria in these worms that are able to digest plastic. So the bacteria are in the intestine of the worm, the gut of the worms. Oh, okay. Yeah. So then I found similarities in the bacterias and I found that they're able to digest plastic using enzyme reactions. And actually on our next slide, it shows the bacterias. Yeah. So this is waxworms. And inside waxworms, there's two types of bacterias. The first is the intobacteria aspera yt1, yp1. That's the one in the corner right, top corner right. Yeah. And then there's basillus, spyp1. And these two work together to form an enzyme reaction. And it's part of the glycoside hydrolase enzyme reaction family. And they what they do is they take the water from the moisture strip, and they take the plastic that they're chewing. And then they work together to make the plastic into glucose, which is for the worms to digest as nutrients. And then they excrete it out as organic compost. That's amazing. So these worms basically are eating and digesting the plastics, which you put them in contact with. And thanks to the moisture, water or humidity of the environment. Yeah. Yeah. So how, how long do they take to eat the plastics? Because they're tiny. Yeah. So waxworms for my project in specific, I used them in the peachy dish for 10 days, which is 240 hours. And per 24 hours, I measured them and weighed the changes to see how they were decreasing the mass of the plastics. So you waited the plastic? Okay. So after the 10 days that I experimented with 400 milligrams decreased in group E, which was the peachy dish that was shown for the, for the pictures on the slides. And in group E, they were able to digest the 400 milligrams out of 3000. So mathematically, that's actually they're digesting at twice their own body size per 24 hours, which was a very fast rate compared to the thousands of thousands of years that plastic go under through our environment that's still harming the environment. While hungry. Yeah. Well, this one, they're not harming the environment, but they're going through a natural process in their gut to dispose of these plastics. And you mentioned that what is the final product, I guess, from the worms after they digested it, the waste if you want. Yeah. So the final product, I believe we have a picture here. So this is the picture. And as you can see, that's polystyrene. Yeah. And on the polystyrene, there's brown spots. And that's the feces that they excreted after. And you see that the brown spots, but the brown spot is not toxic or anything. Yeah, it's not harmful to organic, which means it can be used as compost or fertilizer, just like any other animal feces, they're able to decompose into the soil much easier than plastic and much faster than plastic. And it's not harmful in any way. This is the piece of plastic basically that was chewed by all these worms. Okay. So which is the worms that was eating this, this plastics the fastest? So the wax worms were actually eating the plastic plastics the fastest. So they were the big eaters. Yeah. So before my project, I am scientists had confirmed that wax worms are able to digest polyethylene. But then after my project, I had discovered that wax worms are not only able to digest polyethylene, but also polystyrene. So they're able to digest both plastic bags and styrofoam. So that's the discovery that's the that's the what made you win second place at the junior division of the state science and engineering fair this year. Yeah. So thank you, Zoe. And we're going to take a break and we're going to learn more about Zoys and her research at Stevenson Middle School. We'll be back soon. I'm Ethan Allen, host of likeable science on Think Tech Hawaii. Every Friday afternoon at 2pm. I hope you'll join me for likeable science. We'll dig into science, dig into the meat of science, dig into the joy and delight of science. We'll discover why science is indeed fun. Why science is interesting. Why people should care about science and care about the research that's being done out there. It's all great. It's all entertaining. It's all educational. So I hope to join me for likeable science. He gets to go in. He's a surface dog. I could get a service too. You're not even a service dog. He's trained to assist his owner. I can do whatever he can do. Wow. Did he just open the door? Yep. Oh, I can't do that. I can't do that either. He's trained for over two years to become a service dog. Man, I wish I could be a service dog. And we're back we're live. This is young talents making way here on Think Tech. We're talking about munching plastic. Yes with Zoe Dawn from Stevenson Middle School. So we learned from you that worms actually can eat the plastics can help us digest and decompose this plastic which is making harm to our environment and everything. You are but I learned from you that you're also going to the international science sphere as an observer. Yes. So what are you going to do there? So the international science fair is in Pittsburgh this year. And I'm going as a junior observer. So it's from May 13th to May 18th. And what we do there is as a junior I can't really compete. Right. But I'm able to follow some of our Hawaii's finalists around as they compete for awards in the international science fair. And I can learn from them while they're presenting. And next year in high school and in senior division I'm able to try and compete in our own Honolulu district fair than the state fair. And if I'm able then I get to go to ISEF again and taking experiments experience from this year's ISEF I can use it for next year's state fairs and international fairs. It's so exciting. So does that mean the worms are going to eat more plastics? Yeah. So I'm planning to continue my project because there's so much to do with the worms. And the worms are only just one little step because I've mentioned before we use bacterias inside the worms. What I want to do is I want to isolate the bacteria strain and only use the bacteria and culture it to make it into a more easier way to solve the plastic pollution. Because worms those worms aren't because before as I mentioned they're used for fish bait. And we have a the great Pacific garbage patch in our Pacific Ocean right now. So that's a big floating chunk of plastic switches. Yeah. So that plastic patch is as big as the size of Texas. And the worms we can't just dump worms onto the patch onto the patch and just let them go at it. But instead we can use just how like scientists are using microbes for oil spills. We can do the same for bacterias and we can use the bacterias for the plastic patch instead of the worms. It's going to be interesting to actually see whether the bacteria are going to be faster than the worms in consuming the plastic. Yeah. Yeah. So next year it's going to be exciting then. Yeah. But where are you going for high school then? I was able to get accepted into two private schools Punahou and Iolani. Oh wow. But I'm not sure which one I will choose yet. You need to figure that out. Yeah. But I think both are great schools and whatever I go I'll continue this project and I should be able to expand on this year's experience to next year. And I hope my high school will be able to help me with that as well. With learning especially for the international science fair upcoming. Yeah. Absolutely. So we had the state here in Hawaii science and engineering fair last week Friday and Saturday. Yes.  And what did you learn there. So it was great to see a lot of different science fair experiments just like I did. And I was in biochemistry which is a category and I was able to compete in that category with some other projects. It was fascinating to see how my neighboring projects and what they did with their experiments. And I was able to learn from the first place winner which was a student from Hilo actually. Oh wow. And he what he did was he did wireless power transfer even though it's in a totally different category. I'm fascinated by robotics as well. So I was able to talk to him and get to know him better. And we were able to talk about our experiments. And I made a lot of new friends at the state science fair. And it was a great experience. What about the judges. Oh the. Did they you know make you constructed feedback you learn from them as well or. Yeah. So the judges were great help actually. They told me what I could improve with my worms and what I what I can do more up with them. And they actually told me another way to use the bacteria as a solution for plastic. They one of the judges told me that what we can do is we can extract the plasmid from the bacteria. So basically like the DNA or the DNA. Yeah. Bacteria and we can create genetically modified organisms to have more of these different types of worms. So instead of having wax worms we can find a more thermal stable or water resistant worm that is more able to adapt to different environments. We can use it to cross breed and create genetically modified organisms just like how we're doing with vegetables or fruits. We can create these worms and they're also they'll also be able to have the ability to digest different types of plastic. You're going to get a PhD. Because this sounds like a lot of experiments because you want to make sure this can work. Actually it can help to reduce the plastic impact on the state of Hawaii and the world as well. Yeah. Have you thought of calculating basically how many worms would be needed or how many bacteria. How could you actually implement this in a from an industrial point of view and trying to actually reduce the impact of plastics. Yes. So as I said before they were eating at a twice their own body size and I had 20 of them and 20 of them were able to digest 400 milligrams in 10 days. And if a lot of other companies are already mass breeding these worms for fish bait or for pet food what we can do is do the same and we can use these worms to industrialize it and we can use it to solve plastic if we have it in mass amount of groups. But that needs calculation and we still I still haven't figured out how exactly much would take to dispose of the great Pacific garbage patch that we'll have in our Pacific Ocean right now. But that will be something that we can do later on as I progress with my project. Absolutely. And so this is absolutely fascinating. It's great that we have solutions to this big plastic problem but now the solution of course needs to be implemented and that's up to all of us to actually you know implement these solutions as well. You mentioned earlier that we had a break and we were talking a little bit and you mentioned Zoe your teacher at Stevenson Middle School. I believe she won some awards at the science fair as well. Yes. So my teacher is Julia Segawa Mrs. Segawa. Hi Julia. Well although she wasn't able to make it today but she is been helping me through this process and helping me with my worms and everything. So she was also able to win some awards along with me and she won teacher awards. So. Wow. So she accompanied me with. She made a good job. Yeah. She accompanied me with to the science fair and she was able to win first place in teacher awards for the Queen Emma biochemistry category and along with me she was able to go up with me to receive the grand prize second place award as a teacher. So yeah. Wow. Lots of bright bright minds here but she didn't make it today but we have here you have a audience of supporters. We have Pamela Kohara here from the state of Hawaii Department of Education. She's a STEM teacher and then I believe we have your auntie down there. Hello. Hi auntie. So this is at this is absolutely exciting in all these science projects as well. Now have you been at the fair being at this exciting event. Have you had a chance also to get engaged to talk to the community to a broader audience because on Sunday we had open doors so people could walk in and see how was your experience for that. So people I guess my question might be phrased as are people aware about this problem in Hawaii what's your view on that. So actually I think people before I was doing this project I didn't realize how much plastic we were discarding every day and although we use it we don't really necessarily we're not grateful for it and we don't know what happens to it after. I mean only like a small percentage of that plastic is being recycled and not a lot of people recycle. So after my project I was I was seeing how much exactly plastics were there in our oceans in the landfills and during public visitation day and I had a lot of people look at my board and talk to me and one of the professors at UH Manoa he was able to give me some suggestions and I think that was a way for me to spread awareness for plastic pollution in our world and eventually after talking to a lot of people they're aware of the plastic pollution in our world as well. So using this experiment and using this project I hope to tell a lot of people about how plastic is such a big problem in our world and how you can help to reduce the amount of plastic we use just like how we had the plastic bag ban in Hawaii. We continue doing that or like continue reducing your waste and recycling your bottles after use and that's a way for you to help the in-planet in fighting plastic pollution. What are the top three suggestions that you would give to our audience today? So the first one because my worms use plastic bags and Styrofoam. The first is to follow up with the plastic ban ban in Hawaii so use recyclable plastics plastic bags use fabric bags as much as possible and then the second is recycle although it's a small amount we can still make a difference recycle just after you drink a water bottle recycle it put it in the recycle bin and they'll be able to reduce the amount of plastics that go into our landfill and then the third is talk to people about plastic pollution not a lot of people are aware that plastic pollution is a very big problem but if you spread it through words spread it through this show and spread it through other places we're able to reduce the amount of plastic that we're using in our world. Thank you Zoe thank you I'm always amazed that you know how bright our students here in Hawaii are thank you very much Zoe for coming here today thank you and so this is young talents making way here on think tech Hawaii. We talk about the things that really matter to the future to our future here here in Hawaii and we do it with our very very bright students thank you very much Zoe for coming here today thank you thank you thank you.
